Name: Michal De-Medonsa
Position: MNF Chair
Do you have a brain? If you're considering this question seriously perhaps philosophy is for you, if not, hurray, neuroscience is for you! Nu Rho Psi (get it?) is the Undergraduate Society for Neuroscience (the letters are capitalized because it's important). We are a student-run group with faculty support and guidance. We have many events that range from volunteering to teach kids in inner-city schools about the brain to having lecturers come and teach us about the brain. Our aim is to nurture the intellectual and ethical strength of our members and generate a collaborative network for both the present and the future.
Although applications require that the student will be at least a sophomore, freshmen are always welcome to come to our events and help out wherever they can. We have neuroscience majors and also neuroscience-related majors (such as behavioral biology) or simply interested in neuroscience. We ask that our members commit 20 hours every year. With so many opportunities to get involved, the hours fly by like a fly flies by things.
Things we do:
We have a meeting every two weeks to update everyone on the events happening and opportunities to collect hours. We have an Undergraduate Research Symposium where students present a poster on the work they have been doing in a research lab.
We also enjoy Making Neuroscience Fun (let's face it, on a scale of 1-fun, neuroscience is pretty much fantastic!). MNF is a volunteer-based part of NuRhoPsi. We go to schools in Baltimore and teach students, from the itsy bitsy pre-K kids up to the bright and sometimes bored 8th grades (of course, they're never bored when we talk to them about brains!). It's fantastic teaching this kids about the brain, and they enjoy it just as much!
Every year we also have Brain Awareness Week. People simply need to be more aware that they have a brain and how incredibly awesome it is! We have speakers from many distinguished universities come to us and give talks about our brains, and we have events on campus to educate the non-neuroscience majors about our squishy things in our skulls.
We also help out at the annual Maryland Brain Bee at the Maryland Science Center! Pretty much like a spelling bee, but you have to spell things about the brain (by spell I don't mean spell, I mean know awesome things). We come up with questions to ask the students and we monitor the whole event! It's so exciting to see how young people are so incredibly knowledgeable about the brain!
We also take part in the USA Science and Engineering Festival! We have a booth where we have a bunch of awesome things about neuroscience and then we have the kids construct neurons out of beads!
We have a social during the winter where faculty and staff can mingle and chat in a totally casual environment! We play games and we even have a competition to see who can stuff the most marshmallows into their mouth (I'm pretty sure that at some point, even if you win, you lose). We also have a social in the summer at our fearless leader's (Dr. Gorman's) abode! We come over and play games, swim, and eat food! Lots and lots of food!

I use the wireless xbox 360 controller, but not all the time. Prefer it for everything except actual battles. If it's not used for while, goes to sleep, need to restart the game to recognize it again if i realllly want it.
Do PS3 controllers do the same thing? Those can always be plugged in, but before I go through the 12 steps of installing my ps3 controller to the computer figured I would ask first, because if the controller sleep issue is still there it's not really worth it.
Thanks again!

Got Milked? William Morrow Paperbacks
Książki / Literatura obcojęzyczna
Refuting the milk industry's overwhelmingly popular campaign-"Got Milk?"-which has convinced us that milk is essential, this scientifically based expose proves why we don't need dairy in our daily diets, how our dependence on it is actually making many people sick, and what we can do to change it. Bolstered by the dairy industry and its successful "Got Milk?" advertising campaign launched in California to help declining milk sales, as well as the government's recommended dietary guidelines, many Americans view cow's milk as an essential part of a daily diet, unequaled in providing calcium, protein, and other nutrients and vitamins. Cow's milk has been promoted as a food without substitute, as being necessary and not interchangeable with foods outside the dairy food group. But as food processing and marketing expert Alissa Hamilton reveals, cow's milk is far from essential for good health, and for many, including the majority of American adults who can't properly digest it, milk can actually be harmful. In Got Milked, Hamilton turns a critical eye on the Dairy Food Group and the promotional programs it supports to dispel misconceptions about milk and its crucial role in our health. Interweaving cutting-edge science in a lively narrative, Got Milked opens our eyes to the many ways in which dairy can actually be harmful to our bodies. In addition, the book offers simple and tasty food and drink swaps that deliver the same nutrients found in milk products, without all the sugar, saturated fat and negative side effects. Complete with delicious dairy-free recipes and full meal plans for "Making it Without Milk," Got Milked is a unique, substantive, and important look into an industry that has hugely impacted our diets and our lives.

HEALTH FOOD JUNKIES Random House
Książki / Literatura obcojęzyczna
The first book to identify the eating disorder orthorexia nervosa-an obsession with eating healthfully-and offer expert advice on how to treat it. As Americans become better informed about health, more and more people have turned to diet as a way to lose weight and keep themselves in peak condition. Anorexia nervosa and bulimia nervosa-disorders in which the sufferer focuses on the quantity of food eaten-have been highly documented over the past decade. But as Dr. Steven Bratman asserts in this breakthrough book, for many people, eating "correctly" has become an equally harmful obsession, one that causes them to adopt progressively more rigid diets that not only eliminate crucial nutrients and food groups, but ultimately cost them their overall health, personal relationships, and emotional well-being. Health Food Junkies is the first book to identify this new eating disorder, orthorexia nervosa, and to offer detailed, practical advice on how to cope with and overcome it. Orthorexia nervosa occurs when the victim becomes obsessed, not with the "quantity of food eaten, but the "quality of the food. What starts as a devotion to healthy eating can evolve into a pattern of incredibly strict diets; victims become so focused on eating a "pure" diet (usually raw vegetables and grains) that the planning and preparation of food come to play the dominant role in their lives. Health Food Junkies provides an expert analysis of some of today's most popular diets-from The Zone to macrobiotics, raw-foodism to food allergy elimination-and shows not only how they can lead to orthorexia, but how they are often built on faulty logic rather than sound medical advice. Offering expert insightgleaned from his work with orthorexia patients, Dr. Bratman outlines the symptoms of orthorexia, describes its progression, and shows readers how to diagnose the condition. Finally, Dr. Bratman offers practical suggestions for intervention and treatment, giving readers the tool

Wheat Belly HarperCollins Publishers Ltd
Książki / Literatura obcojęzyczna
Renowned cardiologist William Davis explains how eliminating wheat from our diets can prevent fat storage, shrink unsightly bulges and reverse myriad health problems. Every day we eat food products made of wheat. As a result millions of people experience some form of adverse health effect, ranging from minor rashes and high blood sugar to the unattractive stomach bulges that preventative cardiologist William Davis calls 'wheat bellies'. According to Davis, that fat has nothing to do with gluttony, sloth or too much butter: it's down to the whole grain food products so many people eat for breakfast, lunch and dinner. After witnessing over 2,000 patients regain their health after giving up wheat, Davis reached the disturbing conclusion that wheat is the single largest contributor to the nationwide obesity epidemic - and its elimination is key to dramatic weight loss and optimal health. In Wheat Belly Davis exposes the harmful effects of what is actually a product of genetic tinkering being sold to the public as 'wheat' and provides readers with a user-friendly, step-by-step plan to navigate a new, wheat-free lifestyle. Benefits include: substantial weight loss, correction of cholesterol abnormalities, relief from arthritis, mood benefits and prevention of heart disease. Informed by cutting-edge science and nutrition, and numerous case studies, Wheat Belly is an illuminating look at what is truly making us sick.

Greetings dolls! Can you believe we've reached the end of January already?! Where did the month go? Next thing we'll know Christmas will be just around the corner again ;)
Speaking of Xmas I was a bit of a spoilt little blogger of late after receiving the sweetest care packages from my gorgeous blogger friends Christine & Chelle. I seriously heart my blogger beauts so much & I feel very fortunate to know such fab ladies!
The lovely Christine who blogs over at Makeup, Beauty and Fashion kindly sent me these fabulous goodies which I cannot wait to try!
Included in her package were a cute leopard print Revlon makeup bag, some gorgeous looking polishes & duo lip glosses, Korres Japanese Rose bath products & Body butter which look LUSH, a cute vanilla lip gloss, a lovely nude NYX lippie in Summer Love & an EOS lip balm which I have heard SO many fab things about & have wanted to try for ages! Thank you so much Christine! *huuuugs*
Next my wonderful & mighty cheeky friend Chelle sent me not one but two packages! Such a total sweetheart, you do spoil me so! ;) Not only do Chelle & I share a passion for pretty nail polish but we also like our sweet foodstuffs...A LOT... ;D
Before I get on to the makeup...oh god all that sweet goodness! In her first super generous package, Chelle threw in some Aussie Wagon Wheels (nom!), a HUGE Dairy Milk bar bigger than the size of my head which actually has...wait for it...jelly beans AND popping candy in it *dies* and also...TIM TAMS! Seriously, have you ever tried these beauties? They are so nomnom good & my new addiction for which I blame Chelle entirely ;p
Some beautiful makeup goodies in the form of Carmex Moisture Plus which I love, a pretty looking Illuminator by Face Of Australia which kinda brings a similar looking NARS product to mind? And two stunning Essence glitters in Galactic Black & Time For Romance, they look GORG!
In the second package Chelle sent me...more TIM TAMS! Haha! I think I may have a problem...
Included with the chocolatey goodness, some lovely looking Bloom makeup, an Aussie brand I've never tried so looking forward to that! Chelle also kindly included some of the fabulous PawPaw ointment, such great stuff, it can be used on the hands, nails, lips etc. one of those great multi purpose products, LOVE!
And as if that wasn't enough already, my lovely friend threw in some nails decals & this absolute STUNNER of a glitter topcoat by Australis. It is actually AMAZING, I Instagram-ed a pic of it on the other day (yup! I joined the IPhone crew recently! aysh_xox) & the sparkle is just incredible! Definite blog post coming soon...
Thank you so so much Christine & Chelle! Muchos big squishes to both you lovelies for your kindness & making my day with your wonderfully generous care packages!
Thanks as always for reading!
Lotsa love to ya!

Facing the Fact that You Have a Problem with Alcohol and Drugs
The first thing you have to do to address a drug or alcohol problem is admit that you have one. Sounds pretty simple, but it's actually the most difficult part of recovery for many people.
If you're quite sure that you have a problem, there are several signs you can look for. It's important to take a critical look at your life and determine whether some big changes need to be made.
The following are some key questions to ask yourself about drinking and drugs:
- Do you ever black out or have memory gaps when you drink alcohol?
- Do you make it a habit to binge drink?
- Do you become anxious when you're not drinking or using drugs?
- Do you experience withdrawal symptoms when you're not drinking or using drugs?
- Do you find yourself having to increase the amounts of alcohol or drugs you use in order to reach a high?
- Do you crave drugs or alcohol first thing in the morning?
- Have you started drinking or using drugs alone to hide your habit from others?
- Have you lied to or made efforts to hide your habit from friends and family?
- Do you find yourself using drugs or alcohol to deal with emotions like sadness, loneliness, or anger?
- Have you noticed that your relationships with friends, family, and loved ones have started to suffer?
- Have you begun to neglect life responsibilities because of your habit?
- Have you made any unsuccessful attempts to stop or cut down?
- Have you gotten into trouble with the law or committed any crimes because of drugs or alcohol?
If you answer yes to more than one of these questions, it's very likely that you have a problem. After you've accepted this fact, it's time to look into the best methods for getting help.
It's important to know that overcoming a drug or alcohol problem can't be done alone. You need to seek help from an outside source that can be trusted.
Here are some options for treatment:
Start out by getting support.
This can mean just finding a trustworthy person to talk to about your problem. This could be a good friend, supportive family member, counselor, or teacher that will take your concerns seriously.
Once you get your feelings out in the open, it will feel like a great relief. This may sound simple, but just talking openly about your problem will start you out in the right direction.
Look for a support group.
There are many options out there for alcohol and drug abuse support groups. 12 step groups are a good option and chances are there are several of them in your area.
A 12 step group can focus on a specific issue, like alcoholism or drug abuse, or can address a more general issue. There are other types of support groups for drug and alcohol addiction that you can find out about through your doctor or counselor.
In patient treatment.
Another good option for beginning treatment is putting yourself in a treatment facility. Depending on how severe your dependence is, a medical detox may be a good option.
This will help you manage your physical and psychological withdrawal symptoms before you embark on recovery. A stay in rehab will help you build recovery skills while connecting with others going through the same process. For many, rehab ends up becoming the strong foundation for a successful recovery.
Find continuing support.
This is a very important step for remaining sober. Leaving rehab and transitioning back into everyday life can be difficult.
Finding and committing to continuing support with a 12 step group, group therapy, or outpatient treatment is vital.

U.S. Congressman Phil Roe, M.D. (TN-01) released the following statement on H.R. 4114, the Veterans' Cost-of-Living Adjustment Act of 2012:
"Passage of the Veterans' Cost-of Living Adjustment Act of 2012 ensures that those who have bravely defended our freedom and their families have the cost-of-living adjustments they deserve. This legislation will deliver greater benefits to deserving veterans in Tennessee and across this nation.
"This bill will provide much needed assistance to veterans and their families. During these tough economic times, millions of Americans are struggling to make ends meet, including many veterans. This bill represents an opportunity to take care of those who have given so much to take care of us, and I am pleased this legislation passed with overwhelming bipartisan support."
H.R. 4114 would direct the Secretary of the Department of Veterans Affairs to increase the rates of veterans' disability compensation, compensation for dependents, clothing allowance, and compensation for surviving spouses and children for 2013.

Rated 1 out of 5 by Anonymous from Not what I would call crown standard Initially we were going to buy a homebase own, but thought that a Crown branded one coat would better in the long run. Oh we're we so wrong! It was incredibly thick and did not spread very well at all, and considering it says it only needs one coat, it's horrendously patchy so has needed 2, and still looks patchy! Wish we had used homebases own now.

Speedy justice from Delhi High Court.
I have filed a writ in Nov 2008 while I was in Service in IIT Delhi against awarded unjustified promotion to me in 1996 without giving suitable post post and pay scale according to my hierarchy of the post. Now Whenever I am requesting to the Hon'ble High Court through CM early hearing, my appeals were turned down by the Hon'ble Judge with the order "as time did not permit to hear my case" due to long pending cases in this court. I retired from service also on 30-09-2013 after 60 years age. Kindly advise me according to Law.
Judicial process takes time on account of huge backlog of cases, generally it takes around 15 years for writs to be disposed of. If you are senior citizen you can make an application to Chief Justice of Delhi high court for expediting final hearing of your case. High court may concede your request and expedite final hearing of your writ petition.

About 10 Jack Russells have gone missing from the Glanamman and Garnant areas in recent months and police believe dognappers are responsible.
One, a four-year-old called Gypsy disappeared two weeks ago and her owner Julie Edmonds has been left devastated.
"I've got three other dogs and I'm terrified to even let them out in the garden," she said.
Ms Edmonds said Gypsy, an all-white Jack Russell, went missing on 1 February after wandering out of her garden in Garnant.
"I'm just worried sick and I'm not sleeping at night," she said.
"I've been phoning the dog wardens and police every day but there has been no sign.
"I've put posters up in the local shops, garages and post office and have given them to every dog walker I see.
"There is a £200 reward but I would willingly pay anything to have her back."
Ms Edmonds said she feared for the safety of her other three dogs - two Jack Russells and a sheepdog.
"We are having 6ft (1.8m) gates put up at the side of the house and we having security lighting.
Witness appeal
"I'm having all the dogs micro-chipped this afternoon.
"I'm so vigilant when they are out now and I'm with them all the time."
Police community safety officer for the area Rob Chapman said: "For any dog owner to lose their pet can be a very traumatic time, but for 10 to go missing from the same area and in such a short time is very worrying."
He has urged anyone who sees anything suspicious to contact police.
Phone Dyfed-Powys Police on 0845 3330200 or Crimestoppers on 0800 555111.

Renault has written off the car that exploded during a fire in the Hungarian Grand Prix.
The team earlier explained the fire as due to overheating, after Nick Heidfeld revved the engine for too long during a pitstop delay.
Technical director James Allison on Thursday expanded by revealing that a different engine setting meant the exhaust was already running hotter than usual.
He said the exhaust also cracked, but the reason for the sidepod explosion was an "air bottle which supplies the air valves in the engine".
"It has overheated in the fire and failed," added Allison.
We are in touch with the FIA both to provide them with a full report of the incident
DPA news agency quotes him as saying the incident was "highly undesirable, as it has caused us to write off a chassis" just before the teams are forced to close their factories for the August break.
"We are in touch with the FIA both to provide them with a full report of the incident and also to explain to them the actions we are taking to prevent a reoccurrence," he said.

Great butterfly for my porch!! Thanks for the quick shipping!!
Variety is the spice of life
Over the years, I've made handmade greeting cards for friends and family. Only once did I receive a handmade card from a coworker that was personalized after the birth of my daughter. I still have that card and I treasure it.
That's how Nature's Touch Boutique got started. I realized that handmade truly meant something special. It meant the person care to take the time to find the perfect card rather than make a hasty purchase at the grocery store of mass produced cards that have been given to thousands of people before me. It means your loved one will be touched by your thoughtfulness.
I'm so fortunate to be living in Pennsylvania which has a rich history. We are surrounded by flea markets, vintage shops, and every yard sale is a potential goldmine of antiques. I don't feel comfortable being surrounded by a space where everything is brand new. There's something comforting about being surrounded by items that have a history rubbed and etched into them. I love mixing old with new because it makes the décor more interesting. I love rehoming vintage items to people who cherish them and give them a new purpose. It's one of the reasons I upcycled some items.
After I became a mom, I made it my business to learn all I could about the problems we have with our food supply and the toxins that find their way into our homes. That's when I began to make handmade soap. My skin has never looked healthier and I'm thankful not to have itchy skin during the harsh winters we have here.
I love having an eclectic shop because I think it keeps it interesting for my customers to find something new every time they visit.

Etta James has reportedly been taken to the hospital with her husband and sons by her side.
The "At Last" and "Tell Mama" blues singer's health has been fading in recent years, and just last week her live-in physician asked for prayers for the singer whose leukemia was declared incurable three weeks ago.
James, known for her witty personality and raspy voice, formed her first doo wop group at age 14. Just eight years later, she signed to Chess Records and had her first top 10 hit, "All I Could Do Is Cry."
She was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1993 and received a star on the Hollywood Walk Of Fame in 2003.
The 73-year-old also suffers from dementia and kidney failure.
On Monday, her family reached a deal in managing her $1 million estate and medical care.

Newly Discovered Artifacts Prove Mayans Had Alien Contact!
Poster Handle
Post Content
Amazing new Mayan artifacts prove the extraterrestrial connection between the Maya and their galactic visitors, furthering the preponderance on the December 21, 2012 end date to the Long Count calendar.
Many people have speculated that the Maya were visited by extraterrestrials and that at least one of their deities, Kukulcan (also known as Quetzalcoatl by the Aztecs), may have been a galactic visitor who taught the Maya about agriculture, mathematics, medicine and astronomy. How else could one explain the Mayan calendar, a calendar that to this day can accurately predict every lunar eclipse within 30 seconds?
The Maya knew of planets that were not "discovered" until many centuries later. They were also the first civilization to use the "zero" in mathematics.
Interestingly, while Quetzalcoatl was described by the Maya as appearing to be Caucasian, having blonde hair and blue eyes, some of the artifacts appear to have African characteristics, thus giving credence to the hypothesis that our civilization was seeded here from various star nations.
rest of article, plus many more pics here: [
link to www.in5d.com
Actually the first people to use the number 0 were the Vedic Civilizations. The concept of 0 existed far before the numeral 0. But sometime later in the 3rd century BC, Sage Pingalacharya used zero for the first time, and represented it with a dot.
You guys think the Mayans are so special with their vague pictures of spacecraft?
How about in the Vedas they very openly speak about the Vimaana aircraft which can traverse space.
Here is a list of the usage of the word Vimaana in some translated texts. Note the diacritical mark above the "A" in Vimaana which gives the "A" a long sound. The word Vimana (Vi-muh-nuh) is does not mean the same as Vimaana (Vi-mah-nuh)
link to vedabase.net
[...] Upon reaching the above-mentioned Vaikuntha in the spiritual world by dint of their mystic yoga performance,[they] perceived unprecedented happiness. They found that the spiritual sky was illuminated by
highly decorated airplanes piloted by the best devotees of Vaikuntha
and was predominated by the Supreme Personality of Godhead.
- Shrimad Bhagavaataam 3.15.26
The Vaikuntha planets are also surrounded by various airplanes, all glowing and brilliantly situated. These airplanes belong to the great mahatmas or devotees of the Lord. The ladies are as beautiful as lightning because of their celestial complexions, and all these combined together appear just like the sky decorated with both clouds and lightning.
It appears that in the Vaikuntha planets there are also airplanes brilliantly glowing, and they are occupied by the great devotees of the Lord with ladies of celestial beauty as brilliant as lightning. As there are airplanes, so there must be different types of carriages like airplanes, but they may not be driven machines, as we have experience in this world. Because everything is of the same nature of eternity, bliss and knowledge, the airplanes and carriages are of the same quality as Brahman. Although there is nothing except Brahman, one should not mistakenly think that there is only void and no variegatedness. Thinking like that is due to a poor fund of knowledge; otherwise no one would have such a misconception of voidness in Brahman. As there are airplanes, ladies and gentlemen, so there must be cities and houses and everything else just suitable to the particular planets. One should not carry the ideas of imperfection from this world to the transcendental world and not take into consideration the nature of the atmosphere, as completely free from the influence of time, etc., as described previously.
- Srimad Bhagavatam 2.9.13
and so on.. and so on..
You can speculate about the Mayan civilization, but the Vedic knowledge has been perfectly preserved and gives intricately detailed descriptions of historical events with geographical locations that can be associated with them TODAY.

Lil Wayne's legal trouble is like Robin Harris' Bébe's Kids: they don't die; they multiply.
According to TMZ, another rapper, who goes by the name Rich Rick, is suing Weezy, 28, for supposedly stealing the beats for his hit song, "How to Love." The lawsuit was filed last week in L.A. County Superior Court.
The suit claims he was double crossed by a production team called Drummer Boyz, who supposedly sold both him and the New Orleans native the same track.
Now he's fighting against alleged fraud and a breach of contract, asking for everything the production team receives for the beat, with 10% interest.
"How to Love" peaked in the top 5 songs on Billboard's charts.

Let's begin with a few numbers:
* Heading into the seventh inning last night, the Nationals hadn't hit back-to-back homers all season. They've now done it twice.
* In their last 10 innings at the plate, they've hit six homers.
* They got their first leadoff homer to begin a game tonight since July 28, 2009. They hit back-to-back homers for the first time to start a game since 2002, when they were the Montreal Expos.
Yeah, it's safe to say their offense is hot right now.
Jayson Werth led off the game for the Nationals with a homer to the Red Porch in center field - his second in as many nights - and Roger Bernadina followed him with another homer. The Nationals hit three other balls to the outfield in the first inning, with Ryan Zimmerman's and Michael Morse's balls to left nearly falling for hits.
They've jumped on a pitcher (the Cardinals' Kyle Lohse) that held them to two hits in April, and they've taken advantage of a muggy night at Nationals Park, where St. Louis' Matt Holliday also homered off John Lannan in the second inning. The Nationals have a 2-1 lead in the third.

In a press release, AWS VP of New Business Initiatives Terry Hanold talked about how the new platform made use of something already familiar. "AWS Marketplace brings the same simple, trusted, and secure online shopping experience that customers enjoy on Amazon.com's retail website to software built for the AWS platform, streamlining the process of doing research and purchasing software," commented Hanold.
Hanold also discussed how using the marketplace actually made it easier to operate on AWS due to a "wide variety of AWS ecosystem providers' solutions, in one place, where much of the work involved in building and deploying solutions on top of AWS has already been done for you by these solutions providers."
Offerings on the site fall under main categories including software infrastructure, developer tools and business software and pertain to a variety of solutions run by providers through Amazon's cloud. Some of the services on the site come from top companies such as IBM, Microsoft, McAfee, Red Hat and more.
The unveiling of the marketplace shortly follows the launch of Amazon's Partner Network on Tuesday. Joining the network allows business partners to receive a listing in the AWS Partner Directory along with credits and a partner logo.

text: Consumer spending and personal incomes both weak WASHINGTON (AP) â¿¿ Consumers did not boost their spending in June and their incomes failed to increase, further evidence that the economic recovery slowed in the spring. And Americans saved at the highest rate in nearly a year. Personal spending was unchanged in June, the Commerce Department reported Tuesday. It was the third straight month of lackluster consumer demand. Incomes were also flat, the weakest showing in nine months. The lack of growth for spending and incomes shows the economy ended the second quarter on a weak note. Many analysts believe growth will slow further in the second half of the year as high unemployment, shaky consumer confidence and renewed troubles in housing weigh on the year-old economic recovery. ___ Factory orders drop for second straight month WASHINGTON (AP) â¿¿ Factory orders fell in June for the second straight month due to lower demand for steel, construction machinery and aircraft. The Commerce Department said Tuesday that factory orders dropped by 1.2 percent to a seasonally adjusted $406.4 billion. Analysts expected a much smaller drop. May's decline was revised to a steeper decrease of 1.8 percent. It was initially reported as a 1.4 percent drop. The two months of declines follow nine straight month of increases, as manufacturers ramped up production last fall and helped the U.S. economy grow after four quarters of contraction. ___ Stocks fall after weak earnings, economic reports NEW YORK (AP) â¿¿ The stock market put its big rally on hold Tuesday after disappointing earnings and economic reports reminded investors of the obstacles still facing the economy. The Dow Jones industrial average fell 38 points after rising 208 Monday on brighter economic news. All the major indexes fell moderately. Investors were unhappy with just about every major earnings or economic report Tuesday. The stream of bad news was a reminder that the recovery is going to be bumpy and slow.

willwrote a question about Union Force Binding on December 17, 2010
I am 6ft 160 pounds. i ride a 158 rome...
I am 6ft 160 pounds. i ride a 158 rome agent (traditional camber, fairly stiff board) and wear size 10.5 DC boots.. my shoe size seems to be inbetween sizes for most binding companies, any advice towards which way i should go with the size is appreciated.
ive been riding a really old model of flow bindings forever, which are pretty stiff as well. but they just broke the other day... I was thinking about trying a binding less stiff so i can have more fun in the park with jibs and tweaking out grabs, but i also want stability for hitting big jumps and trying bigger spins. how much of a difference is there between types of bindings? and do i want to have a stiff binding to match a stiff board? I also love the convenience of the flows, i notice i get more laps in the park than anyone else, but if traditional bindings really are better then i will seriously consider them in order to progress my skill, and i guess they are cheaper.
ive heard a bunch of good things about union naturally. and research has lead me to the forces, but the contact and contact pro look sexy as well. which sounds best for my riding style and the gear i have now?
ive even heard good news about burton bindings too. (i usually stay away from burton and their expensive overrated snowboards) what do burton bindings have going for them that union doesnt? or vice versa. they are usually talking about something to do with a better feel of the board under your feet or something that makes the board flex more natural...
i havent gotten new bindings in a while as you see, so ive got lots of questions. but any help and feedback is much appreciated. I want to make a good investment. thanks

If 2014 Montgomery Bell (Tenn.) academy offensive lineman Alex Bars is looking for any advice on handling the recruiting process or coming to a decision, leaning on brother Brad, about to enter his junior season at Penn State, or brother Blake, set to be a redshirt freshman at Michigan this fall, is always a possibility. Also with a father that attended Notre Dame, Bars doesn't have to go outside the family to inquire further about three of the schools on his list.
All that aside though, the obvious connections are great, but according to his coach at Montgomery Bell, Marty Euverard, Bars college choice will be reflective of the 6-6, 286-pounder's comfort, not anyone else's.
"Sure they're close brothers, but ultimately he's going to make a decision that's best for him and his future," Euverard told GoBlueWolverine. "I'm sure it has something to do with it but for the most part I think it's just what he wants to do."
Not one to jump in front of the camera at every opportunity, do a bunch of interviews, or even tussle with any attention on twitter, Bars has taken a quiet approach to the recruiting process, uninterested in allowing the public a plethora of details he feels can be kept to himself.
"He's a grounded kid," said Euverard. "He knows what he wants. He's a good kid and he just doesn't want to get involved in making a, big freak show."
Michigan is one school keeping in close contact with Bars, offering a blend of academics he and his family are looking for and also a football program on the level of some of the best in the country. According to coach Euverard, often serving as a regular contact with the Michigan staff, they're grabbing Bars attention.
"They're a great staff, great people," he said. "They've done a great job of recruiting him and Michigan would be a great place.
"Everybody has been coming in and being really good to him but if I'm speaking specifically about Michigan, they've done a great job -- coach Hoke, coach Smith, just great people and Alex will make a decision sometime in the near future I'm sure."
'When' is the question on the minds of many but as is the case with this entire recruitment, Bars and his family know best.
"That's totally up to Alex, whether he makes a decision in one month or in 10 months," said Euverard. "Like I said, he's a grounded kid and he's got great parents and they're going through the process of making the best decision for the next 50 years of his life."
And the Bars know exactly what they're looking for in the school their son ultimately chooses.
"He's all about academics now," said Euverard. "He's a great -- incredible student. He wants an education and he wants to play football.
"I know academics and the football program are the two things that first and foremost, academics being one and the right fit for him to play football."
Putting his coaching hat on for a moment, coach Euverard offered his thoughts on Bars as a player, raving about his versatility and intelligence on the field.
"He played defensive line also," he said. "He's a great athlete. He plays basketball, very flexible, bends well -- he's very smart and just a really good offensive lineman."

Android 20 is the result of Dr. Gero transplanting Android 19's brain into his head thus making him immortal as the new Android 20 had said. Later on, we learn that this only makes him immortal to natural death (old age, hunger, etc.) as Androids 17 and 18 killed him.

Another avenue of life prolonging research is caloric restriction, reducing the number of calories eaten by up to a third.
Int. N. Swan
Norman Swan: Hello, and welcome to the program. Today, what various researchers think we can do to live longer or keep our minds intact - whether the answer's anti-oxidants like Vitamin E, having our genes twiddled with, or eating 30% fewer calories per day; also whether kids in childcare really catch more colds - and more -
But another and fascinating avenue of life-prolonging research is caloric restriction: reducing the number of calories eaten by up to a third.
The leading laboratory in such studies is at the US National Institute on Aging, and one of the people involved is Dr George Roth, who also spoke at the AAAS meeting.
George Roth: It's been known for nearly 70 years now that if we feed laboratory rats and mice less, they live longer. And not only do they live longer, but they live better, they're healthier, they get the diseases of ageing to a lesser extent and later in life. Cancer for example, the incidence is much less in calorically restricted animals; they stay more vital, they maintain physiological and behavioural functions late into life, they just generally seem to do better. And in all this time that we've known about this particular paradigm, there have been two burning questions that have remained unanswered: the first is, what is the mechanism by which caloric restriction exerts these anti-ageing effects? And secondly of course, will it work in people?
And our group began to address these questions back in 1987 with primary emphasis on the second one, because up until that time, no-one had ever tried this type of experiment in any animal that lived longer maximally than about three years. This does work in animals with shorter life-spans, more primitive animals such as flies, worms, insects, protozoans but never had been tested in anything that lived longer than about three years.
So because of course it's obviously very difficult to try to view this experiment in people, we opted for the next best thing, which is monkeys. And so we started out with a small group of rhesus monkeys and squirrel monkeys; we've now expanded the study over ten years to the point where we have almost 200 monkeys roughly half of which get essentially the food that they like, fed in two daily meals, and then a second group which gets about 30% less than the ad libitum fed group.
I should stress that they both get exactly the same chow; it's a specially-formulated monkey chow, and it's fortified with extra vitamins, minerals and trace elements so that the animals are not short-changed on the micro nutrients. We like to call this under-nutrition without malnutrition.
I guess I could summarise the results of the experiment to date by saying that essentially all of the caloric restriction effects, beneficial effects, that have been documented in rodents that we've examined, seem to occur in very similar fashion in the calorically restricted monkeys. For example, the calorically restricted monkeys are smaller as you might expect, they're shorter, they have less fat, they mature a bit later, about 1 year later, than the ad libitum-fed animals; the metabolism has been changed, the body temperature is lower by 0.5 - 1 degree Centigrade. And I think what happens in a calorically-restricted animal is that the metabolism is re-set from a growth and reproductive strategy to a survival strategy. Calorically-restricted animals do better under some forms of stress, the stress protein families, the chaperone proteins, are more inducible in calorically-restricted animals.
There are a number of anti-disease effects that we think we're going to see based on some of the markers that we've examined. For example, the sensitivity to insulin and the glucose tolerance of the calorically-restricted animals is better, suggesting that they'll be less likely to develop diabetes as they get older. On the cardiovascular front, we've noted that the triglyceride levels are lower in the calorically-restricted animals, the blood pressure is a little lower, some of the HDLs, or High Density Lipoproteins, that's the good cholesterol which helps to protect against cardiovascular disease, is actually elevated by a factor of 2 in the calorically restricted animals. So we think they'll be less likely to develop cardiovascular disease as well, as they get older.
We're also looking at a battery of what we call biomarkers of ageing. These are things that we can measure non-invasively, with a blood sample or a skin sample. As you might imagine, these monkeys are very valuable, and we hesitate to do anything that might be the least bit traumatic to them. But with this panel of biomarkers we've already been able to obtain some evidence that perhaps the rate of ageing is actually slower, as it is in rodents. And our hope is to continue the study, perhaps to we or our successors, to carry these animals up to the point where we can see if the actual life-span is longer. Monkeys of course, live between 30 and 40 years, so that's a difficult proposition, but at least with the battery of biomarkers and anti disease markers that we've examined so far, I think we can get a pretty good picture that the caloric restriction paradigm does seem to be working in the monkeys. And the hypothesis that we're testing that it will exert similar effects to what have been observed in rodents, looks like it's going to be borne out.
So what we'd like to do is to answer this other burning question that's been around for 70 years: What is the biological mechanism by which caloric restriction exerts the anti ageing effect? Is it some metabolic pathway, is it a gene? What is it? If we could identify that particular mechanism, then we could target it pharmacologically, so that we could trick the cells of the body into thinking that they're calorically restricted, but still allow the individual to eat the food that they like. That would be the ultimate goal of this study.
Norman Swan: Dr George Roth, of the US National Institute on Aging, speaking at the recent American Association for the Advancement of Science meeting in Seattle. I put three questions to him from the floor. One is the finding also from his institute, but in humans, that people, in middle age at least, who are a little overweight seem to live longer compared to those who are underweight. How does that tie in with the animal findings?
Secondly, is there an ideal number of calories for maximum life span? And thirdly, I thought there was evidence from the rate studies that calorie restricted rats seemed a bit depressed.
George Roth?
George Roth: The first question - and that data comes from Dr Reuben Anders, who's the Clinical Director at our institute, and what he basically showed some years ago, was that the tables of the life insurance companies were a little bit off with respect to optimal survival. It turns out that people that were a bit heavier than what was formerly thought to be ideal, actually did better. Unfortunately that kind of study is a little bit different. We call that an observational study - there's no controlled intervention, it's simply an analysis of data that exist from all of these people. And our study is one in which we actually manipulate a variable. There is no guarantee that those individuals from the life insurance tables that were a bit overweight might not live even longer if they were put on a restricted diet, say 30% less than they would select to eat under their own devices. And so the only way you can really do this experiment in the proper way, is to take a randomised population sample and then divide it into two groups: one group would be the ad libidum group, the other would be the restricted. And that's the only way to be sure of what the ideal situation would be.
In answer to the second question, yes, there does appear to be an optimal degree of caloric restriction. In rodents it seems to be about 40%. If you do it less, then they don't live quite as long. Interestingly, the very early experiments done by Mackay back in the '30s - he's the man who discovered the phenomena - showed that if you restricted more than 40% in rodents, that the average survival was shortened. However, there were a few animals in the population that actually lived longer maximally. So there may be a gene that allows some individuals to resist this restricted diet and do even better. Our feeling is that probably this would have to be tailored individually, that the genotype of individuals is so heterogeneous that maybe some would be optimal at 30, some might be 40, some might be 20, and that would have to be worked out.
The third - we've just begun a behavioural initiative with our monkeys. The data from the rodent studies, I'm not sure about the depression studies, but one of my colleagues, Donald Ingrim, is a psychologist who has studied caloric restriction in rodents for a number of years. He puts the animals in mazes, and measures their ability to learn a complex maze and determines how many mistakes the animals make. As the animals get older, their ability to learn this maze declines. However, the calorically restricted animals seem to do better. In other words, they maintain the ability to learn the maze later in life than the ad libitum fed. This is a very important question with respect to the primates. We have some sophisticated cognitive testing apparatus now - special chambers where the animals can do motivational tasks; they can measure, they look at symbols and lights coming on, they try to do matching tests and reaction times, and so over the next year or so we should get some information as to that point. Although I think the hypothesis that we're testing is going to turn out to be true, and that caloric restriction I think could benefit humans as well, without some sort of clinical trials and without weighing side effects and tailoring diets to individuals, I think it would be premature to make any kind of dietary recommendations other than a prudent diet and lifestyle to avoid the obesity problems and the diseases associated with obesity.
Hunger may not be a bad thing; hunger may be a signal that the metabolism has somehow been re-set. I think there is a proverb in some cultures that you should get up from the table 80% full. And there may be something to that. I think in Western countries, developed countries, when we sit down to a meal, we tend to get up after we are satiated and we don't feel hungry any more.
Norman Swan: And people do live longer in some of those countries with that 80% tradition.

text: After a great start of the Italian GP for Karl, leading 1/3rd of the race, he wasn't able to defend against a mighty Torgier and his teammate Martijn. Martijn went for the wrong strategy, a two stopper, whilst Torgier was spot-on with a one stopper. He claimed the win in Italy for his italian based team Ferrari in front of the tifosi. Martijn drove home 2nd, but a 10 seconds penalty dropped him to 4th. The investigation is still under review at the stewards. Meanwhile, Karl was not able to defend his position to Lance aswel, so he dropped to 4th. With the time penalty of Martijn that results in a 1-2 for Ferrari at the Italian GP, and Karl's first podium, but it must have tasted bitter-sweet as he probably would have wanted to the podium on track. Still though, the stewards are looking into it. The european season is now finished meaning its time for the 12th round of the season in Singapore at the Marina Bay circuit! It is the second nightrace of the season, and you can not compare this track to any other of the calendar. Who will top the podium this week, will Sam get back after a missed race with a bang or will Torgier prove his greatness again this week? To find out, join us! Where: Singapore, Marina Bay When: Sunday 8th februari, 19:00 GMT Why: because 15 min qualifying followed by a 50% race All simulations on, all assist banned apart from gearbox and racing line. Some questions for YOU! - Who will take pole? - What is your aim for this race? - If one track could be added to the calendar, which one would it be according to you? - Who will be on the podium? - Who will win? - Can anybody help me from now on with the threads, as I have the feeling I do everything here?

Who'd have thought it?
An interesting survey here, showing that despite all the noise from racists like Uncle Jimmy (BlairSupporter) about how Muslims don't assimilate, how non-whites aren't "real" Britons, and how Muslims all feel allegiance only to their religion not their country, in fact British Muslims identify with Britain and British values more than any other group, including whites.
That must be why nationalist separatist terrorists have killed far more British people in my lifetime (and continue to kill far more Europeans) than Muslim terrorists.
Also why the part of Britain most keen at present to separate itself from "Britishness" is the one where I live, whose population is overwhelmingly white and mostly Christian.
