Alexander McQueen Studded Skull-Clasp Clutch
|By: Tanya
Oh, look! Another Alexander McQueen bag with too much going on! The Studded Skull-Clasp Clutch may be less my cup of tea than the label's usual fare, because I find myself practically bored with its design. But there's nothing boring about pointy studs and an evil skull, so what is the problem here? Maybe it's the repetitiveness of it all. I do appreciate the outright vulgarity and excessiveness of these bags, and there are several I've really loved, but this just feels like filler to me. Available to pre-order for $2625 at Neiman Marcus.posted: February 19th, 2013

Internal clearance
Double row cylindrical roller bearings produced to SP tolerance class specifications have C1 radial internal clearance as standard although the clearance suffix is not shown in the bearing designation. The rings of similar bearings may not be mixed as otherwise the clearance may become inadmissibly large or small. For this reason, the components of a bearing are supplied as a packaged unit. If they are separately packed, the components of one bearing will carry the same serial number.
Bearings made to SP tolerance class specifications, particularly those of series NNU 49, can also be supplied with larger radial internal clearance. If bearings with greater radial internal clearance than C1 are required the bearing designation should include the clearance class identification: C2 for the special "SPC2" clearance, CN for class Normal or C3, when ordering. The radial internal clearance "SPC2" differs from the standardized C2 clearance; the range is narrower and displaced towards the smaller end of the C2 range.
The other standard bearings are produced with the radial internal clearance as stated. The radial internal clearance of the drawing number bearings is given in the product table together with the design following the bearing designation.

The Golkar party of former dictator Suharto maintained its slim lead today in Indonesia's general election as vote-counting continued a week after the polls.
Golkar had 20.59 per cent of the 79 million votes counted, just ahead of the 20.13 per cent for President Megawati Sukarnoputri's ruling Indonesian Democratic Party of Struggle (PDI-P).
It was still not clear when the count would end. More than 147 million people were eligible to vote in the legislative polls on April 5 in the world's third largest democracy.
No turnout figure has been given but some estimates put it around 80 per cent.
One study by the US National Democratic Institute and local groups has tipped that Golkar will emerge as the largest party in parliament. But millions of voters have snubbed all the established parties and turned to two upstart groupings.
Golkar so far has failed to match its performance in the last polls in 1999, a year after Suharto stepped down, when it won 22 per cent of the vote.
PDI-P has suffered a dramatic slump in support compared to the 34 per cent it achieved in 1999. Analysts say Megawati faces a tough battle for re-election in July's presidential election.
Third was the National Awakening Party of former president Abdurrahman Wahid with 12.64 per cent of the votes, just below its 1999 tally. It was followed by Vice-President Hamzah Haz's United Development Party with 8.29 per cent (11 per cent in 1999).
The new Democrat Party of Megawati's former security minister Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono stayed in fifth place with 7.48 per cent.
It took the votes of millions of disaffected Megawati supporters in what was seen as support for Yudhoyono's presidential ambitions rather than for the party.
Yudhoyono, a former general, saw his popularity rocket following his resignation from Megawati's cabinet in March.
The Muslim-oriented Prosperous Justice Party (PKS), which campaigned on an anti-corruption platform, maintained its strong showing - placing sixth with 7.02 per cent of the vote. It leads the polls in Jakarta.
"Votes for the Democrat Party have been attributed to the desire for a new leader..." the Jakarta Post said in an editorial.
It said the PKS's support was due to its clean image.
"I personally want to congratulate the Democrat Party and the Prosperous Justice Party," presidential hopeful Amien Rais, leader of the seventh-ranked National Mandate Party (PAN), said at a press conference Monday.
With 6.43 per cent of the votes counted Monday, Rais said his party's results were not what he expected. But he said the party's support has broadened and he predicted PAN will win 49 of the 550 parliament seats, more than the 34 it held in the last parliament.
Rais also said he has a "calling and responsibility" to continue fighting for reform.
"I am here and I am still running for president, God willing," said the former Muslim leader and speaker of the last People's Consultative Assembly.
With no single party set to hold a parliamentary majority, building coalitions has become vital for Indonesia's first-ever direct presidential ballot on July 5. Eleven parties have announced the formation of a loose alliance in a bid to agree on a candidate.

Can cloud customers learn from the Super Bowl power outage?
by Kyle Hilgendorf | February 4, 2013
Last night, 108M+ people tuned in for Super Bowl XLVII. It looked to be a blowout of a game, yet ended in exciting fashion, perhaps to one factor not related at all to football. A power outage. Early in the 3rd quarter, exactly half of the lights went out in the Superdome. A 34 minute […]

Katie is ready to make peace, not war, in her Peace Twirl Skirt made by her mother, Sandy Stanley. Sandy says she often turns to her daughters Courtney, 5, Katie, 6, and Brooke, 8, for advice or ideas for a new product.
"If I include the girls in the process, they are proud and empowered by what they have helped design," she says.
Sandy has been sewing since she was 11 and began selling her clothing when she was in high school, making prom dresses for her friends. In 2007 she traded a dress for a friend's daughter in exchange for some graphic design help and her line, My Own Threads, was born.
The Peace Twirl Skirt sells for $38.

Lindsay Lohan hasn't been in the headlines for about a week, so the star decided to pose with a gun in her mouth – as you do.
The star, who is known for her wild lifestyle, posed with the gun for photographer Terry Richardson in a series of lewd pictures posted on his Tumblr account 'Terry's Diary'.
A raven haired Lindsay grimaces as she holds the gun to her head and in another one puts it in her mouth as she grins at the camera.
The disturbing photos have now been taken down but others of Lilo outstretched seductively on a bed and posing in see-through black underwear have been left up.
The 25-year-old, who recently got into trouble for crashing her car is working for the first time in years playing Elizabeth Taylor in Showtime TV movie 'Liz & Dick'.
Despite appearing to want to clear up her 'trainwreck' image, Lilo clearly loves the attention and controversy she causes, why else would she think this was a good idea?

Centurion: Smarting under a sound seven-wicket thrashing by India, New Zealand skipper Stephen Fleming blamed the approach of his team for its "stuttered" World Cup campaign and said it never looked like wanting to win the trophy."It was a stuttered campaign. It is still stuttering. We are still gasping," Fleming said referring to the team's fate hinging on the outcome of the Sri Lanka-Zimbabwe match on Saturday."We never got into the stride all the way through. We never had the feeling that we were on a run or into a rhythm and that we wanted to win the World Cup," Fleming said as the team's chances of progressing in the premier tournament took a nosedive following the defeat to India on Friday."I think we were always scraping. We had individual performances that were worthy but apart from that we never had the feeling of winning the trophy," he said.Fleming also slammed the team for its "dire performance" in the must-win game against India. It was not a collapse. It was a bad performance all through, starting from ball number two. It was a dire performance on such an important occasion and on such a good batting strip," the Kiwi skipper said. Left-arm seamer Zaheer Khan ripped through the New Zealand top order as the Kiwis were reduced to 38 for three before struggling to put on 146 runs. India achieved the target with almost nine overs to spare. Fleming admitted he was quite "impressed" with India's left-armers. "They are very handy," he said."Your fifth bowler is a worry but it's the same with Australia. At the moment the main bowlers are providing Saurav Ganguly with some good options," he said and then went about praising left-arm seamer Ashish Nehra. "Nehra in particular is bowling very well and he has good rhythm about him. He is deceptively skiddy and quick," Fleming said about the bowler who was responsible for putting the brakes on New Zealand's scoring and bringing the batsmen under pressure."He was outstanding today. Zaheer Khan got the wickets but I thought Nehra bowled a fantastic spell." New Zealand sneaked into the Super Six stage on luck after rains forced South Africa and Sri Lanka to split points in the last league game in Pool B."Last time we were pretty close to packing our bags. I guess we should now go through the same routine," Fleming said.Fleming acknowledged the efforts of Rahul Dravid and Mohammed Kaif, who saw their side through with their 129-run unfinished partnership, but said the match was won by the Indian bowlers. "I have no doubt it was the Indian bowlers," he said."When you are chasing 147, even when early wickets are lost, the batsmen can take their time to reassess the situation, judge the bowling and then go about scoring."Having said that, Kaif and Dravid batted very well. Dravid is a quality player and both had a good opportunity to get into rhythm," he said. Kaif and Dravid came together when India was in trouble at 21 for three in the fifth over. Dravid, who finished unbeaten on 53, could have been out for one had wicket-keeper Brendon McCullum not dropped a straight forward chance. Kaif, who made 68 not out, was also lucky in the early part of the innings when a few uppish drives just eluded the fielders."Dropped catches are always disappointing, more so because it involved Rahul. 146 was never enough but to win the game, you needed to take all the chances."As for that dropped chance by Brendon, I could not really see it because I had tears in my eye," the Kiwi skipper said.

Cool Dravid, crafty Kaif see India home, give SL a life

Cambridge UK (SPX) Feb 23, 2007
Reporting findings that help shape our understanding of how tool use has evolved among primates, researchers have discovered evidence that chimpanzees, at least under some conditions, are capable of habitually fashioning and using tools to hunt mammalian prey. The work, reported by Jill Pruetz of Iowa State University and Paco Bertolani of the University of Cambridge, will appear online in the journal Current Biology on February 22nd.
Chimpanzees are well known for their ingenuity in using tools for some tasks, such as obtaining invertebrate insects from logs or pounding open hard nuts, but there had been only fleeting evidence of chimpanzees brandishing tools for bona fide hunting.
In the new work, researchers observed tool use in hunting by the Fongoli community of savanna-dwelling chimpanzees (Pan troglodytes verus) in southeastern Senegal.
Chimpanzees were observed making spear-like tools in a step-wise fashion, and subsequently using them with jabbing motions in an apparent effort to obtain lesser bushbabies (Galago senegalensis) from cavities in hollow branches or tree trunks. Bushbabies are nocturnal prosimians that retire to such hidden cavities during the day.
Although there was only one successful attempt in 22 recorded instances of the chimpanzees using the spear-like tools to find and obtain prey, the researchers observed that tool-crafting and associated hunting behavior was systematic and consistent, suggesting that it was habitual.
The hunting behavior included forceful jabbing motions into branch or trunk hollows, and chimpanzees were seen to subsequently open the hollows by breaking wood off from a distance, suggesting that the jabbing actions were intended to immobilize bushbabies, rather than rouse them from their cavities (bushbabies move quickly and might otherwise easily evade chimpanzees once roused).
Two notable aspects of the behavior observed in the Fongoli group were that on the one hand, it is rare for chimpanzees to consume prosimian prey-in other study sites, red colobus monkeys, hunted mainly by males, are the chimps' most common prey-and on the other hand, the tool use appeared to be primarily restricted to females and immature individuals.
These two behavior characteristics could both be related to the fact that the Fongoli community inhabits a mosaic savannah that is relatively dry, and where red colobus monkeys are absent.
This habitat may promote efforts-such as the observed tool use-to obtain meat through other means. The authors point out that the females and immature chimpanzees using the spear-like tools appear to be exploiting a niche relatively ignored by males, an observation that supports a previous hypothesis that female hominids played a role in the evolution of the earliest tool technology and suggests that this technology may have included tools for hunting.
The researchers include Jill D. Pruetz of Iowa State University in Ames, IA; Paco Bertolani of University of Cambridge in Cambridge, UK. J.P. was supported by grants from the National Geographic Society, Center for the Study of Violence at Iowa State University (ISU), ISU Foreign Travel Grant, ISU Faculty Professional Development Grant, and the American Society of Primatologists Conservation Grant during the study period.

St. Petersburg (RIA Novosti) Feb 22, 2007
A St. Petersburg court rejected Wednesday a lawsuit against Russia's education authorities over the compulsory teaching of evolution in schools. Maria Shraiber, a high school girl from Russia's second city, and her father, Kirill Shraiber have said their suit does not seek to abolish the teaching of Darwinism in schools, which was official dogma in Soviet times, but to give schoolchildren the right to study other theories regarding the origins of life.

Amytis, who saw what was the magian's object, warned her son Cambyses not to trust him.
By the king's command, he also was made acquainted with the magian learning.
The plane as well as the cypress was one of the distinctive trees of the magian paradise.
So Dareios was persuaded, and he thrust with his danger and happened to hit the magian.
Atossa had, of course, known her brother well, and was on that very account very closely secluded by the magian.
If it was Smerdis the magian, she would find that he had none.
It was the rebellion of the magian Smerdis which the demon revealed to me in a dream.
And alone, in the distance, the lonely man beheld his magian brother.
Hence he knew of the fact, and, as was fitting, he urged the overthrow of the magian before all others.
"There are harder things than catching him," said the magian.
c.1200, "skilled magicians, astrologers," from Latin magi, plural of magus "magician, learned magician," from Greek magos, a word used for the Persian learned and priestly class as portrayed in the Bible (said by ancient historians to have been originally the name of a Median tribe), from Old Persian magush "magician" (see magic).

The program, which has generated a fair amount of buzz, also serves as a feeder into V Pilates' traditional training services, which has brightened Jensen's bottom line. "It sparks an interest," she says.
A hemisphere away, another innovator, Tamara Di Tella, has married Pilates and Argentina's national dance, the tango, to create Tangolates. Pilates first made a name for itself when it was embraced by professional dancers, and Di Tella seems to be resurrecting history. Tangolates is offered at her five Pilates studios in Buenos Aires and elsewhere in Argentina, and is licensed for use at some 50 clubs in 12 other countries worldwide.
Tangolates makes use of a special piece of equipment, the T-DiTella apparatus, a platform with four upright bars that accommodates two users at a time, which introduces a formerly missing exercise element. "Pilates is excellent for flexibility and strength, but Tangolates adds cardio to the equation," Di Tella explains. "Many clients are looking for weight loss, but not finding it, in traditional Pilates. Tangolates, on the other hand, burns calories."
Each of Di Tella's studios caters to approximately 200 clients, and her Tangolates classes average about 10 people in size.
Another clever individual, Joan Breibart, the president and cofounder of the PhysicalMind Institute (PMI), based in New York City, which certifies instructors in the Pilates Method, has also developed some promising permutations: Standing Pilates and Circular Pilates. "We've done what we think Joe (Pilates) would have done if he were still alive," says Breibart.
As the name implies, Standing Pilates is performed in a standing position. One of the primary goals of the class is to teach clients how to apply the neutral spine of Pilates to everyday tasks, such as bending and walking. Circular Pilates, a 20-minute routine, was developed in association with Kristin Hapke, an instructor for the Institute, and Marika Molnar, a clinical advisor to the PMI. This class includes standing, sitting, kneeling, supine, and prone movements, all of which are designed to build strength during rotation.
Interestingly, injury-prevention and rehabilitation is now one of the fastestgrowing segments of the Pilates industry — a natural development, perhaps, given the fact that Pilates was originally devised for wounded, bed-bound soldiers during World War I. "People came to Joe with an injury, and he found a way to help them," explains Ken Endelman, the founder, owner, and CEO of Balanced Body, a Pilates equipment manufacturer based in Sacramento, California. "He was essentially one of the first physical therapists."
Attuned to the trend, STOTT PILATES intends to introduce a continuing-education series focused on post-rehab training, as well as on different medical disorders. "Specialty tracks will give instructors the expertise to specialize a little more and help them hone their skills," explains Moira Merrithew, the cofounder and executive director of education for STOTT PILATES, the Toronto-based subsidiary of the Merrithew Corporation, a leading provider of Pilates products and services.
"Post-rehabilitation is a huge new trend," attests O'Clair, of Club Xcel, who specializes in post-rehab and athletic performance. "I'm getting a lot of referrals from doctors—more than I've ever had." Approximately 50% of her clients are postrehab, she says, and athletes constitute 20% of her private-training business.
"Many pro athletes are incorporating Pilates into their training regimens, and the majority of them are men," points out Lindsay Merrithew, the cofounder, president, and CEO of STOTT PILATES. "Perhaps they're introduced to it while on the mend from injury, but most are sticking with it. I think that, in the future, we're going to see a lot more men taking advantage of the benefits of Pilates."
Of special note, and indicative of a new direction that Pilates seems to be taking, is O'Clair's Pilat-ease offering, developed to provide cancer patients with "a gentler approach" to Pilates exercise; 10 people are currently enrolled in the pilot program.
Bettina Blank, a Pilates Method Alliance (PMA) Gold Certified Pilates teacher at the Circle Studio in Portland, Oregon, has also done some groundbreaking work, helping individuals suffering with Parkinson's disease. The author of Pilates for Parkinson's Disease: An Instructional Handbook, Blank is convinced that Pilates can alleviate some of the symptoms of Parkinson's — e.g., tremors and a shuffling gait — and has witnessed such improvements firsthand. The participants in her classes, she reports, "feel better, feel more energized, and their posture improves."

Derzon to play "Addy" in American Girl Show
Robyn Derzon lives in Glendale with her three siblings and her parents and attends second grade at Parkway Elementary School. This weekend, she will play "Addy" -- the African-American doll in the "American Girl" series -- in The American Girl Fashion Show at the Hilton Milwaukee City Center.
The program showcases the styles of girls yesterday and today with historical and contemporary fashions from American Girl, showing how generations of American girls have used clothing to express their own unique style and personality.
"In the show I'll walk down the runway and wear a (Addy) costume and try to show what the doll is all about," says Derzon, 9.
Although she claims to be nervous about her modeling debut, Derzon says she feels confident that she and Addy have a lot in common. The American Girl Web site confirms this.
"Addy had to rely on a lot of courage as she was determined to be free in the Civil War during 1864. Addy's world is full of hope and wonderful friends and family. If there is one thing that Addy understands, it is the value of freedom," reads the site.
Like Addy, Derzon was also granted freedom, but in the form of a supportive family. Last year, everything in her world changed when Alan and Dalyn Derzon adopted her, along with her two biological sisters and a brother. Interestingly, the couple was married in Children's Court at the same time the adoptions of their four children -- ages 9, 10, 10 and 13 -- were finalized.
But like a happy child should, Derzon focuses on other similarities between herself and Addy, which are the things that have mattered in a 9-year-old's world for centuries.
"We both like to talk, we both have our hair in braids and we both like Christmas," says Derzon. "I mean, I used to like Christmas. Now I'm Jewish."
The American Girl Fashion Show is Saturday, March 19 at 1 p.m. and Sunday, March 20 at noon and 3 p.m. at the Hilton Milwaukee City Center. The cost is $35 per adult and $30 per child, which includes the fashion show, refreshments, party favors and a tax-deductible contribution. Please specify first, second and third choices of date and time. For more information, call (414) 967-8388.

Top 10 Social Networking Sites by Market Share of Visits [June 2017]
Data updated on: July 3, 2017
Q&A site Quora is now on the list for some time now and it stalled losing a little ground from its peak of 0.76%. Quora, is a perfect match for this list but it wasn't even around when we first started publishing this list as it was founded in June 2009. Quora is in the tenth position with 0.71% market share of visits.
Although, Facebook breaks new highs globally it has lost market share for several years in US. Starting from near 70% dominance. This has dropped to 39.36% by the end of June 2017. Seems that people are diversifying they social media use. Globally Facebook reached an important milestone! 2 BILLION monthly active users.
Now back to regular items. Two pairs of social networking sites are still battling it out between each other. The fight to be the third social networking site is between Twitter and Reddit. The race for the fifth place is between image based social networks Pinterest and Facebook-owned Instagram.
Twitter vs. Reddit
Twitter's market share was at a virtual standstill for the most of 2016. But starting from October 2016, there has been a growth spurt. This growth may have started to reflect in Twitter's stock price which is up for the month of May. Also since October 2016, Reddit has been in the fourth position, and Twitter has regained the number three spot in US visitor market share.
Twitter continues at it's all time high percentage on this top 10 chart with 5.87% in June 2017. Reddit's rise stopped in May 2016. It lost the third position to Twitter in November 2016; then we can expect that Twitter will remain in the third position in the coming months. Reddit had impressive growth-sprint starting below 0.7% around December 2014 and reaching 5.62% in May 2016. However, since then, Reddit has lost some ground to Twitter, and in June 2017 it was a bit below Twitter's market share with 5.22 percent.
In the coming months, we'll see if Reddit is running out of steam and Twitter can get ahead. As a side note, Twitter has not updated its monthly active user numbers for a very long time, and the latest public number is still 313 million.

Pinterest vs. Instagram
Instagram has everything going for it. A pretty decent mobile app, Facebook's support, and inclusion in its ad platform. Despite all this, it has lagged behind Pinterest in US market share of visits. Pinterest relative success may be due to Instagram's mostly mobile-only functionality. Pinterest is more like a tool than just posting pretty pictures and collecting likes. More functionality might be the reason Pinterest has kept the lead for most of the time these sites have been on the Top 10 list.
Since February 2016 Instagram has had the upper hand, but Pinterest regained the fifth position in September and got a decent lead. In November 2016 Instagram took the lead again if only by 0.01%. The fifth position was mostly due to drop in Pinterest's market share. Now they have switched places again. Instagram's market share is close to the all time high with 2.02%, and Pinterest is 0.07% behind with 1.98%. A notch down from the all-time high for Pinterest.
Other Social Networks
The second half of the top 10 list is always changing. Smaller social networks like Yelp and LinkedIn have been gaining market share. But they are nowhere near their all-time high numbers. The Microsoft's acquisition of Linked in for 26.2 billion dollars has not yet influenced these ratings. If Microsoft can integrate LinkedIn with its business software, then it may give the B2B social network a huge boost. On the other hand, recent history with Google+ shows that money and effort might not be enough to change the habits of users.
Market Share of Visits
[May 2017]:
- Facebook 39.36% (▼ down)
- YouTube 26.17% (▲ up)
- Twitter 5.87% (▲ up)
- Reddit 5.22% (▲ up)
- Instagram 2.02% (▼ down)
- Pinterest 1.95% (▼ down)
- LinkedIn 1.45% (▲ up)
- Tumblr 1.23% (▼ down)
- Yelp 0.89% (▲ up)
- Quora 0.71% (▼ down)
To put the percentages in perspective then the absolute number of visits of 1% of market share is about 37.2 million visits per week.
About this chart
Every month the chart lists the top 10 sites of that time by the market share of visits in US. Please note that it is just a percentage and 30% in January 2012 is a lot less than 30% in December 2012. The gaps in the lines mean that the site wasn't in the top 10 at that time. The gap in the data from April to May 2014 is the trtnsisaion period to include mobile statistics. The data became unreliable and we didn't include it in this chart. The chart is in logarithmic scale so that the smaller sites wouldn't just a single line around 1% of social network market share.

The Fab Faux Comes To The State Theatre 2/18
The Fab Faux's performances tackle the Beatles' material live onstage. They return to the State Theatre in Easton on Saturday, February 18th at 8 PM.
Featuring Will Lee, bassist from The Late Show with David Letterman and Jimmy Vivino, Music Director/guitarist/arranger for The Tonight Show with Conan O'Brien, The Fab Faux approaches the songs with the intent of playing them as accurately as possible. They are committed to the reproduction of The Beatles' repertoire, and THE band to see if you want to know what it might have been like if the Beatles toured behind their later albums.
Tickets for The Fab Faux are $60 & $50 and can be purchased by visiting the State Theatre Box Office, 453 Northampton Street, Easton, by calling 1-800-999-STATE, 610-252-3132 or online at www.statetheatre.org.
Sponsored by: Follett Corporation & Norris, McLaughlin & Marcus
About the band: "The Fab Faux are a labor of love that was born in 1998 when neighbors Jimmy Vivino, Music Director/Guitarist for The Tonight Show with Conan O'Brien and long time music partner of Levon Helm, John Sebastian, Laura Nyro and Max Weinberg (to name a few), and Will Lee (who's played with all 4 Beatles), bassist for Paul Shaffer's CBS Orchestra on the Late Show With David Letterman kicked around the idea during an elevator ride in their NYC building. Rounding out the line-up are lead-singing drummer/producer Rich Pagano (Rosanne Cash, Patti Smith, Ray Davies, etc.), guitarist Frank Agnello (Marshall Crenshaw, Phoebe Snow, etc.) and ace keyboardist/guitarist Jack Petruzzelli (Rufus Wainwright, Patti Smith, Joan Osborne Band, etc.). All five principals contribute vocals, making the Faux's soaring harmonies as resonant as their multi-instrumental chops, which are further enhanced by the four-piece Hogshead Horns (with Blues Brothers, Blood, Sweat & Tears and SNL band alums) and Creme Tangerine Strings."

London, UK (SPX) Apr 22, 2013
A new study concludes that approximately half of the prescriptions of Tamiflu during the 2009-10 influenza pandemic went unused in England. The unused medication represents approximately 600,000 courses of Tamiflu at a cost of around 7.8 million pounds to the UK taxpayer. The novel scientific method used in the study could help measure and improve the effectiveness of future pandemic flu strategies.
The finding, published online in the open access scientific journal PLOS ONE, comes from the first study of its kind to use sewage water to estimate drug compliance rates, the degree to which a patient correctly follows medical advice to take medication.
The study estimated usage of pharmaceuticals from large populations by sampling sewage and recovering the active component of Tamiflu thus measuring drugs that were actually consumed by patients, rather than those that were flushed away without being consumed.
The work was led by scientists at the UK's Centre for Ecology and Hydrology working with colleagues at Uppsala, Linnaeus and Umea Universities, Sweden, and the University of South Bohemia, Czech Republic.
Lead author Dr Andrew Singer, a Chemical Ecologist from the Centre for Ecology and Hydrology, says, "Influenza pandemics are rare, making a study such as this a unique and important window into how people behave during a public health emergency such as a pandemic.
This study sheds new light on people's willingness to follow medical advice on antiviral usage. Importantly, this method could be used to monitor how many people take certain kinds of medicine in real time and alert national health authorities to the need for stronger public information campaigns during pandemic emergencies."
The research highlights that despite the central role of antivirals in many nations' influenza pandemic preparedness plans, there remains considerable uncertainty regarding antiviral compliance rates.
Poor compliance drains resources by diverting limited antiviral stocks from those who may need it most. Mis-used antivirals can lead to antiviral resistance and represents a significant financial cost and health risk. Previous research on antiviral compliance had focused on small populations, typically fewer than 200, and used survey-based analyses of drug compliance, which can be unreliable.
Dr Singer adds, "Our study was the first compliance study to utilise waste water as an evidence base for whether a population consumed Tamiflu or not. Because of this unique study design, we were able to examine populations orders of magnitude larger than previous studies.
One population was just over 6,000 people and the second population was 208,000. Tamiflu gets transformed into the active antiviral only after being consumed, and is released into the sewage with every visit to the toilet.
This waste water epidemiology approach is particularly robust for drugs such as Tamiflu and potentially more reliable than some survey based methods of assessing compliance."
Predictions of oseltamivir consumption from Tamiflu recovered in sewage were compared with two sources of national government statistics to derive compliance rates. Scenario and sensitivity analysis indicated an estimated compliance rate between 45-60 percent, (between 45 to 60 people out of every 100 people who received Tamiflu completed the antiviral course, as prescribed).
Dr Singer says, "With approximately half the collected antivirals going unused, there is a clear need to improve public health messages so that less antiviral is wasted and that the duration and severity of infection is reduced.
"Furthermore, we feel the waste water epidemiology approach undertaken can potentially help shape future public health messages, making them more timely, targeted, and population sensitive, while potentially leading to less mis- and un-used antiviral, less wastage and ultimately a more robust and efficacious pandemic preparedness strategy."

Happiness is an elusive quality in a Mike Leigh film. Sometimes, in his films, you will meet characters who try to cheer other people up, but there is usually a darker side to their perkiness. The photographer who tries to get people to smile in Secrets and Lies is stressed out by conflicts within his family; the woman who provides illegal abortions in Vera Drake naively tells her clients they will all be "right as rain" after she has left, and is caught off-guard when one of them almost dies thanks to her efforts; and when Gilbert & Sullivan premiere their latest musical comedy in Topsy-Turvy, a depressed Gilbert responds to the applause by privately grumbling to his neglected wife, "There's something inherently disappointing about success."

This is Norma. She's a smart little 1999 Toyota Starlet, who has always been completely reliable. Norma's secret is that although she's a few years old now, she's hardly been driven! In Norma's previous life she was owned by a lovely old lady who literally just drove to the shops once a week - meaning she's nearly mechanically brand new. Toyota reliability AND mechanically near new - this is amazing little Norma. Norma is a three door hatch that will seat five for quick weekend trips - at a squeeze - she's much more comfy with four. Her rear seats fold down to make plenty of space for weekly sharehouse shopping runs, or helping your friend move that big TV. She's only small, but that makes for super easy parking in the city's tight carparks or inner city laneways. She turns on a dime with her tight turning circle - you just see how easy she is to manage in Melbourne's tiny streets. Norma also has a USB charger in the cigarette lighter - just bring a cable that fits your particular phone. There is also a radio-audio thingo in the glovebox that lets you listen to your iPod or otherwise on the radio. Please leave both of these in the car at the end of your trip. Also, if you end up with a parking fine or anything, please do just pay it as soon as you can. Give her a run - I'm sure you'll enjoy Norma's thrifty convenience just as much as I have!

Psychonauts Summary
Latest news
Zombie Vikings enjoys Psychonauts crossover with free Raz-ombie DLC
Zoink Games has announced that to celebrate the success of Psychonauts 2 on the Fig crowdfunding service, side-scrolling brawler Zombie Vikings will be getting some free DLC in the form of Raz-ombie.
Double Fine offers a retrospective look at Psychonauts
Psychonauts 2 is well on its way to success in its crowdfunding campaign, but Double Fine hasn't forgotten what it took to get this far. Tim Schafer's development studio has released a three part in-depth look at the challenges and successes that the original Psychonauts faced.
Double Fine project lead Brad Muir moving to Valve
Double Fine project lead Brad Muir has revealed that he is joining Valve Software later this year.
Double Fine an "alternative" publisher, offer "a way for indies to stay indie"
Psychonauts and Broken Age developer Double Fine is getting into the publishing business - sort of - with their focus on lending assistance to indie teams. Escape Goat 2 for PC is partly their doing.
The studio wants to help indies "build their own community and empower them" so they don't become dependent on traditional publishers, or even Double Fine for that matter.
Self-publishing keeps Double Fine afloat, Psychonauts sales 'a steady income'
Tim Schafer has said the last two years of Psychonauts sales has been worth more to them than any period before that, simply because Double Fine acquired self-publishing rights to the IP.
Any time there's a Steam sale "it's generating a bunch of money" for the developer, which helps them steer clear of bad publishing deals with "terrible recoup terms".

True Hawaiian Style Shave Ice is alive in the Rocky Mountains. Family owned and operated, Aloha Shave Ice Co's mission is to bring this "ono-licious" dessert to you.
Visit us at one of our upcoming events and taste the flavor of true Hawaiian Style Shave Ice. You will never want a snow cone again! What is the difference between the two? Hawaiian Style Shave Ice is created from delicately shaving ice blocks creating fine, fluffy shave ice. This allows the syrup to suspend in the ice and not settle to the bottom of your cone. In contrast, snow cones are made from crushing ice, creating a crunchier texture. When syrup is poured onto snow cones, it quickly settles to the bottom.
We have 20 flavors to choose from. Can't decide which flavor to try? Choose three and create your very own RAINBOW! Order your shave ice just like the locals do in Hawai'i by adding a scoop of vanilla ice cream to the bottom or top it off with a volcano cream!

This page provides you with an overview of the rules around the use of social media, such as Facebook and Twitter, by candidates, parties and others in an election campaign. More information about the election campaign rules for candidates, parties and third parties can be found in the Candidate Handbook, Party Secretary Handbook and Third Party Handbook.
Exemption for personal political views
There is an exemption to the definition of an election advertisement under the Electoral Act for the publication of personal political views by an individual on the Internet or other electronic medium, provided the individual does not make or receive payment for publishing those views. Individuals expressing personal political views on social media, such as Facebook and Twitter, are covered by this exemption and will not need to include a promoter statement or get written authorisation before publishing views in support of a party or candidate.
An individual sharing an election advertisement on social media (i.e. 'liking' or 'retweeting' a post) is not publishing an election advertisement for the purposes of the election advertising rules provided the exemption for personal political views applies. The individual sharing the advertisement does not need to ensure a promoter statement is included in the advertisement.
Where social media is used by a candidate, party or third party to express party or third party political views, or where the person pays to promote or publish the post, the exemption for personal political views exemption does not apply.
Election advertisements using social media
To determine whether a social media post, page or account is an election advertisement, the Commission looks at the content as a whole. For example, to decide whether a political party's Facebook page is an election advertisement, the Commission looks at the Facebook page as a whole, including the content the party is responsible for publishing such as the party's posts and photos. Generally, where individuals post comments on a party's Facebook page the personal political views exemption is likely to apply to those posts.
Where the social media page or account is an election advertisement, a promoter statement does not need to be included in each photo or post on the site, provided the promoter statement is contained on the home page or the page that contains the election advertising. On Facebook we recommend you include the promoter statement in the 'About' section. For sites such as Twitter and Instagram the promoter statement can be included on the home page for your account.
Paid advertising on social media
Where you pay for an election advertisement to appear unsolicited on another person's page, for example, a promoted post or banner advertisement on Facebook or a promoted tweet on Twitter, a promoter statement must be included on the advertisement itself. You cannot rely on a link back to another page which contains a promoter statement. If there are a limited number of characters to include a promoter statement on the advertisement it is acceptable to abbreviate the promoter statement, for example 'Promoted by Anthony Secretary, 111 Any Street, Auckland' could be abbreviated to 'A Secretary, 111 Any St, AKLD'.
The cost of election advertising that encourages voters to vote for a candidate or party published during the regulated period for the 2017 General Election (23 June to 22 September 2017) will be an election expense. More information on how election expenses must be accounted for can be found in the Candidate Handbook, Party Secretary Handbook and Third Party Handbook.
Photography in a voting place and sharing photographs on social media
While the Electoral Commission encourages people to take and share photos of themselves with their 'I've voted' sticker once they're outside the voting place and unlikely to interrupt or inconvenience other voters, the Commission places 'No photos' signs at all voting places and advance voting places.
The increased interest in voters taking 'selfies' inside voting places raises concerns about protecting the privacy of other voters in the voting places and can breach other rules in the Electoral Act regarding campaigning on election day and protecting the secrecy of voting.
Voting Place Managers have to ensure that voting proceeds smoothly, that voters are not impeded, and that order is maintained in voting places. Voting places are for the purpose of voting and people should not remain in the voting place for other purposes. The increased interest in voters taking 'selfies' inside voting places has the potential to create additional congestion and disturbance and for this reason we ask that no photos be taken by the public inside the voting place.
Publishing anything on election day that could potentially influence another voter is strictly prohibited, and photos taken earlier in the voting period that are shared, re-shared or reposted on election day could fall foul of the Electoral Act.
Returning Officers will still be able to give permission to candidates for filming in voting places. Permission for candidates will only be given on the condition that there is no filming behind voting screens, no filming of completed or uncompleted voting papers, and no activities that disrupt voting in the voting place.
Social media on election day
There are additional restrictions on election day. On election day (from midnight on 22 September until 7pm on 23 September) there is a general prohibition of the publication of any statement that is likely to influence which candidate or party a person should, or should not, vote for.
Election advertising does not have to be removed from social media so long as:
- the material was published before election day
- the material is only made available to people who voluntarily access it, and
- no advertisements promoting the page or site are published on election day.
If you use social media, do not post messages on election day that could breach these rules. The Commission recommends candidates and parties temporarily deactivate their Facebook campaign pages to avoid the risk of supporters committing an offence by posting on your page. For other forms of social media where others can post comments the Commission recommends that where possible security settings are changed so that other people cannot post messages before 7pm on election day.
Posts on social media that are not connected in any way with the election can of course be posted on election day.

Miguel Tejada won an MVP award with the Oakland Athletics. Now a shell of his former self, Tejada is using the media to try and re-ignite a meeting with his previous team. Football lines
"Tell (managing director) Billy (Beane) to give me a call," Tejada, who was released by the San Francisco Giants last season, said. "I don't want serious money. I just want to play."
Tejada, who will turn 38 years old on May 25, stated that he could accept a minor league contract — like the one Manny Ramirez latterly signed with the Oakland A's — and understands the team is in a bind in the infield after 3rd baseman Scott Sizemore suffered a season-ending ACL tear last weekend. Football betting lines
Tejada, who made $6.5 million in 2011, played 37 games at 3rd base for the SF Giants last season and has played in 141 career games at the position. He has played a lot of his career at shortstop.
"I have always liked the Oakland A's. That's the franchise that gave me an opportunity when I was a young child in the Dominican Republic. They opened all the doors for me. That's my family," he said.
Tejada further said that he has come to be good buddies with Cuban outfielder Yoenis Cespedes, who signed with the Oakland Athletics this offseason, and recommended that his existence in the clubhouse could help Cespedes adapt to the major leagues.
Tejada won the 2002 American League MVP award as a member of the Oakland Athletics, but left the cash-strapped franchise to sign a $72 million, 6-year contract with the Baltimore Orioles after the 2003 season. Since that point, he's been traded twice, to the Houston Astros in 2007 for 5 players, including SP Troy Patton, OF Luke Scott, RP Dennis Sarfate and RP/SP Matt Albers and to the San Diego Padres in 2010 for minor league pitcher Wynn Pelzer. On Sep 22, Tejada hit his 300th career home run off Ted Lilly of the Los Angeles Dodgers.
He was batting .239 with 4 homers and 26 RBIs in 91 games before being released by the Giants last September. He revealed that he performed badly last season because he was not cheerful.
He has 304 home runs, but hasn't hit more than 20 in a season since 2006.
Tejada was handed probation in 2009 after pleading guilty to withholding information about his previous teammates' use of performance-enhancing drugs when questioned in 2005 by congressional investigators.
Tejada has acknowledged he purchased growth hormone while playing for the Oakland Athletics but claimed he threw the drugs away without using them, and prosecutors said during his 2009 plea hearing they had no evidence to challenge that.
Josh Donaldson, who was traded to the Oakland Athletics in the 2008 deal that sent Rich Harden to the Chicago Cubs, is the favorite to take over for Sizemore at3rd base. He played 3rd base during his junior year at Auburn and was used at 3rd 53 times in the Oakland Athletics' organization.

Would it surprise you to discover that your pet understands everything you say? I'm not talking about simply your voice or gestures, as a lot of people believe. I mean literally. Animals communicate in three ways: they send each other pictures, they send each other feelings, and animals who are around humans a lot pick up the words used around them. It's the same way kids learn language. From hearing it.
Some times I will have to figure out what they're trying to say. The images they send are always from their point of view. You have to think like a dog or cat or horse or iguana. Feelings are easier to understand. Love washes over me, or anxiety or confusion. When they learn I can communicate with them, animals become my best pal and sometimes want to go home with me.
I always introduce myself. "I'm the lady who talks with animals," I'll say. But by then, they have gotten into my vibration and sniffed me and found out who I am. And they want to be close to me. People tell me that their pet won't go to anybody, but he's all over me. It's part of the "animal communicator tool" that is in my toolbox.
Dogs are very basic communicators. You have to ask them a direct question and they will answer in few words. They love to be told they're good dogs.
Cats, on the other hand, will talk your ear off if you let them. They have an opinion on everything and they are all too willing to share it. They love to be told they're beautiful.
Animals are always honest. If you ask me to ask the dog who in the family is his favorite, he's not going to weigh pros and cons. He'll tell you the unvarnished truth, so be prepared to hear it.
My point is that the beautiful spirit you have chosen to share your life and your home with is a child of God with a soul who understands not only what humans tell him, but what is really going on around them. We have a lot to learn from these wise teachers. Animals teach us to be in the moment and not to worry about where your next bowlful is coming from. It will be provided. They teach us to enjoy every moment – be totally in the moment of chasing a Frisbee, taking a nap in the afternoon sun, sneaking a cuddle.Animals know this precious truth: Now is the only time there is. Make the most of it and the days that follow will take care of themselves.
In the meantime,
Happy Tails to You!

About Jess Woodburn
I strive to use social media to find new ways to promote business and increase visibility. Marketing has changed with the digital age and I am a product of that school. Always interested in making new... connections and learning from other industries! While my main focus is art, I believe that the more friends I have in various fields, the bigger my business will become. I have been doing freelance graphic design for about 10 years, from wedding invitations to logo design to album artwork and everything in between. I genuinely love working with people to make their ideas come to fruition with stunning visuals and ease of access. I work exclusively with Adobe Photoshop CC15 these days, but I have experience with Illustrator and Gimp. An avid reader since I was a wee one and the child of English teachers, I have an uncomfortable obsession with spelling, grammar, and all the minutiae of writing. I have tried my hand at writing, but prefer proofing and editing other people's work. My father is a published author and so are several of my cousins, so I suppose it's in the genes! I currently work as a stay at home mom and freelance graphic designer, so my availability is fairly open. Rush jobs are always welcome; I'm a lady who loves a challenge. I also collect art, so I would love to use Simbi to expand my collection. There are still a few square feet available on my walls! I can't wait to meet new people across the country and make great friends along the way!show moreOpen to other proposals

Linda Gordon has asked that I advise everyone with requests in the "hopper" at this time, that they will be forwarded to Farthest Reaches for response. Pricing will be announced within the next few days and posted on Farthest Reaches website under "Custom Autographs".
To start, only flats will be accepted with some exceptions depending upon the item. Dicks basic price structure will remain the same though a reasonable service fee for handling your custom items will be included.
For those of you not requiring a "custom" autograph, a variety of authentically handsigned Richard Gordon photos will continue to be offered for sale through Farthest Reaches Inc.
We're also pleased to announce within the next few days, the launching of a "new and improved" Richard Gordon website. We think you'll be impressed. For you flown artifact collectors out there, some new items will be added that are expected to impress, along with other new features that will make your visit to Dick's site, a most enjoyable experience.
Thanks to all for your continued support...

Let's just say that it's the same Cheerios in a box that isn't dented.
There will be a few new flown artifacts and some awesome replica's on their site available directly through the Gordon's.
When the transition is complete, a note will be posted.

------------------Steve Hankow http://www.farthestreaches.com
With his operation being run in house then there will be delays but with his 80th birthday coming up and also nearing 40 years since Apollo 12 then it's worth remembering that he was a vital cog in the Apollo programme and also flew on Gemini. If he had commanded Apollo 18 then he'd have had even more huge collector appeal having been an CMP and a Commander on a Moon Landing Mission.
I can see why guys like Al Woorden do sub out their requests to Furthest Reaches as running a website is time consuming especially when you are near 80.
Al Worden was apparently on great form at Autographica recently and doing a few shows a year whilst someone else handles your signings all other time must appeal to the Apollo/Gemini guys.

I'm not sure whether this is good retirement planning news -- or bad.
The employment website CareerBuilder.com commissioned a study of workers age 60 and older and learned that 57 percent of them plan to look for a new job after they retire from their current company. About 11 percent said they didn't think they would ever be able to retire from the job they had.
CareerPath also interviewed employers to see how they felt about older workers. Some 43 percent of hiring managers said they plan to hire workers this year who are older than 50, while 41 percent said they hired workers age 50 plus in 2011. Seventy-five percent of the employers said they would consider an application from an overqualified worker who is 50 and older, with 59 percent of those employers saying they'd make that hire because older workers offer knowledge to an organization and can mentor others.
CareerBuilder has a special section of its website aimed at older workers -- PrimeCB.com. There, it offers these tips for finding work when you are of retirement age and no longer a babe in the woods:
- Play up the strengths that come with having more years under your belt. Try to make both your life and your work experience relate to the position you seek.
- Point out the unusual value you could bring to the company. If you are good at training or have a deep familiarity with the career field, this could make you stand above the crowd.
- Consider part-time or freelance work. Even if the ad says full time or a staff position, don't hesitate to apply, pointing out what you have to offer. If you don't ask, you don't get.

Christian Bias? A Sociology Study on Gay Parents
By: Martin E. Marty
Sightings, at least in its Monday column releases, regularly classifies many topics dubbed "church and state" as being unsolvable. We have quoted Walter Berns who wrote that the Founding Fathers, who get so regularly invoked in contemporary debates, solved the problem of church and state by not solving the problem. The Constitution and the Bill of Rights go a long way in providing a framework, but any look at State and U.S. Supreme Court rulings in any session will reveal that the demands of factions -- as James Madison called them -- are too complex to be satisfactorily faced and settled.
This season the major unsolvable issue was the case of Prof Mark Regnerus of the University of Texas. He published findings in Social Science Research, a sober journal which ordinarily provides little grist for sensational media. Regnerus, however, picked the topic which agitates more people than most, and which deals with unfinished business in religious, legal, and cultural debates: homosexuality. Let's quote from the Right, Karla Dial, summarizing the issue in Citizen magazine: his findings suggested that children raised by homosexual parents were more likely than those raised by heterosexuals to grow up with problems too extensive to be summarized here.
Bloggers and others attack Regnerus, his methodology, his sponsors -- undisguisedly promoters of anti-homosexual criticism -- and more. I'll attach a couple of sources which reveal how divided the readers of articles are on the gay parents issue. Readers of a few lines will see at once how volatile the discussions are. Regnerus' host institution, the University of Texas, convoked a panel which backed Regnerus. The internet is crowded with comments on both sides of the issue.
Sightings wants to pick up on what makes this an addressable but finally insoluble concern of such interests. Here's the line-up: one group of commentators found radical fault because Regnerus is explicitly Christian in his commitments, and argued that one cannot "do" respectable academic social sciences if those commitments are to forms of Christianity which are critical of those with viewpoints favoring rights of gays. One group sees no carry-over of a bias shaped by Christianity of a particular sort. The University of Texas found nothing to censure in the Regnerus case. Scholars on the other side found plenty to censure, and the fight over these issues goes on and on.
While one set of critics argue that one cannot favor Regnerus's article without pressing the conservative Christian faith he professes, the other says that expressing his kind of Christianity without having it distort everything, is biasing, and should be ruled out. While many debate the empirical research and findings, Sightings steps back and says that in social sciences there is no pure land beyond prejudice, pre-judging, where scholars are free of bias. They may be fair-minded, careful, judicious, often hard to pin down, but dig, dig, dig and you will find presuppositions behind the presuppositions, this time subtly leading to a tilt one way or another.
The Regnerus incident in its first phase is now history and many move on. But astute religionists on left and right who know that social (and political and other) professors of total balance also bring their own presuppositions, which will be biasing. Scholars have all kinds of checks on their scholarship, but they can't and don't jump out of their communities, creeds, and commitments, recessive and vague though they seem.
