By YOUSSEF M. IBRAHIM, Special to the New York Times
Published: June 9, 1988
ALGIERS, June 8— Arab leaders rebuffed the Palestine Liberation Organization today by declining to extend substantial new financial aid to support the upheaval in the Israeli-occupied territories.
The move, on the second day of a three-day Arab summit meeting, reflected reluctance to choose either Yasir Arafat, the P.L.O. leader, or King Hussein of Jordan to have exclusive control and power over Palestinians in the West Bank and the Gaza Strip.
Arab officials here said the conference would come up with a formula that would restate commitments to consider the P.L.O. the sole legitimate representative of the Palestinian people to mitigate its rejection of the P.L.O.'s financial demands.
The P.L.O. came demanding exclusive control of funds intended for Palestinians engaged in the uprising. Until now Jordan has shared the distribution of financial aid with the P.L.O., according to several Arab officials here. Another Rebuff to P.L.O. In another rebuff to the P.L.O., the conference appears to have shied away from an outright condemnation of the just-completed Middle East peace mission of Secretary of State George P. Shultz. The Arab League Secretary General, Chedli Klebi, asserted at a news conference that there was no point examining the peace initiative ''since Israelis had rejected it.''
Asked what level of financial support the summit meeting plans to allocate to sustain the uprising and how the money would be channeled, Mr. Klebi said, ''It is not the business of the conference to enter into such details.''
''These are secondary issues,'' he added. ''The primary concern of the Arab countries is to give the uprising moral, political and diplomatic support.''
Several P.L.O. officials here said the organization had asked financial commitments of $300 million to $400 million a year to sustain the uprising under P.L.O. control. The money would be spent, among other things, to pay those who are on strike or have otherwise been made idle by the protests. Objections of Arab Leaders
In a pointed remark published a few days ago and reprinted in a pamphlet distributed here, Bassam Abu Sharif, a senior adviser to Mr. Arafat, wrote that ''Arab officialdom was guilty of dereliction of duty towards the Palestinian uprising in the occupied land.'' He asserted that Arab governments have ''not only withheld financial support to the Palestinians but also kept them under political siege.''
But a senior Arab cabinet minister who asked not to be identified said the Arab leaders had several objections, the most important of which, he said, is that ''we don't want to be put in a posiiton of saying King Hussein or Chairman Arafat should have exclusive responsibility for managing such funds.''
The official also said a formal 10-year commitment to extend billions of dollars of financial aid to Syria, Jordan and the P.L.O. would be allowed to lapse this year. He said Arab oil producers did not want to be bound by such commitments because of the decline in oil prices and the political difficulties in allocating such funds.
Arab officials here said they expected that financial aid, particularly money from Saudi Arabia, Kuwait and the United Arab Emirates, would continue to flow to Jordan, Syria and the P.L.O. to support selected activities in the occupied territories. But they said those providing the funds wanted to retain a great measure of independence in how and to whom they will channel the funds. A Competitive Struggle
The controversy also underlies the competitive struggle between Jordan and the P.L.O. to retain their respective influence in the occupied territories.
In a speech today, King Hussein said Jordan carried a major burden in shoring up the economy of the West Bank, which was part of Jordan before it was captured by Israel in 1967.
The King stressed that if financial help was forthcoming, it must be distributed not only to the P.L.O. but also to Jordan and to Syria, which are, he said, all in direct confrontation with Israel. He went out of his way to underline Jordan's financial burden in providing many of the public services in the occupied territories.
''Jordanian law is still applied in the West Bank,'' the King said. ''Jordanian currency is still the main currency in circulation as well as for savings. State and popular institutions are still extant and functioning in the areas of education, health, agriculture, passports, public works, water irrigation, religious properties, religious courts and social development.'' The King pointed out that Jordan continues to pay the salaries of 18,000 civil servants in the West Bank and 6,000 in the Gaza Strip. To a Closed Session
The King's speech was made to a closed session this morning restricted to the Arab leaders, but Jordanian officials made copies of the address available both in Arabic and English to reporters.
In the speech, the King was also critical of American policy in the Middle East.
He said American policy in the region is only motivated by the need to appease crisis, not to resolve the Middle East conflict.
As a result, the King said, it is essential for Arab states to ''support the uprising in an organized and effective manner and insure that it continues until it achieves its objective'' of forcing the United States and Israel to move toward ''a comprehensive and just settlement'' with the Arabs.
''The United States has no Middle East policy other than support for Israel,'' he said. ''The United States approach to the problem of the Arab-Israeli conflict is, unfortunately, based on a policy of crisis management. The United States takes no political steps or initiatives until there has been a recent eruption in the region taking on the aspects of war.''
King Hussein said he would accept the P.L.O. as exclusive representative of the Palestinians in any international conference. But he said the United States might refuse to sponsor such a conference under those terms.

SAN ANTONIO -- Miles Austin said things haven't really changed.
In 2008, Austin had 278 receiving yards for the season, his third with the Dallas Cowboys. In his first start NFL start, against the Kansas City Chiefs in Week 5 of 2009, he gained a Cowboys-record 250 receiving yards.
By the time the 2009 season had ended, Austin had totaled 11 touchdown receptions with 1,320 yards, pushing him into the Pro Bowl. He entered the season with 18 career catches and exited it with 99.
Then it happened.
Pictures popped up on Bossip and TMZ.
He was walking down the street with a Yankees baseball cap pulled down low as a girl walked in front of him.
That same girl jumped into a cab with Austin after they left a restaurant in New York.
That girl is Kim Kardashian, the reality TV star.
"Hey, Miles is the American Idol," inside linebacker Bradie James said. "I wish he were on 'American Idol.' It's like taking somebody that worked at the Container Store in the closet and now he's an American Idol. That's only in America and only on America's Team that you can do that. We're very happy for Miles. He's still level-headed. Miles is still the same guy, it's just people like him now."
Do they.
He can't really head out at night without someone taking a picture of him with Kardashian.
And Austin seems to be taking everything in stride. He's playful when asked about his life away from the field.
Take this exchange I had with him following a Sunday morning practice:
Has it surprised you that you can't walk down the street?
"I can walk down the street."
But cameras are following you. Does it surprise you a little bit?
"Not really, it's all right."
Is that because of who you're with or just in general?
"In general."
When you saw the pictures pop up, did your dad call you and say, "What are you doing?"
"I don't know what pictures you're talking about, really."
When pictures came out with you and Kim, did your boys go, "Dude you're all over the Internet"?
"I don't even know. I don't even see the pictures, so none of my friends really hit me up about it."
Austin smiled that smile of his when he talked.
He always seems to know what you're talking about but won't engage you too seriously. He takes the safe way out, and that's fine, because whom a player dates or whom he's married to is nobody's business.
The reason it came up is just another indication of how suddenly his fame has grown.
Tony Romo, the quarterback who burst onto the scene in 2006 and dated a few women everybody seems to know, can relate to what Austin is going through.
"I don't think it's that big a challenge," Romo said. "Too much is made out of some of the other stuff that goes into it. I mean the difference, once you start playing and playing at a decent level, is that people start talking about you. Miles has been doing the same things he was doing before. It's just now when people see him they take his picture or they write about it."
The only picture Austin will acknowledge is the Sports Illustrated cover. He was put on there twice in one calendar year.
Austin said he grabbed the most recent one on his way to training camp last Friday and was pleased with the story.
On the field, Austin seems to be the same guy: a player who can beat you with his quickness and power.
In a three-receiver set, the Cowboys like to put Austin in the slot so he can get a one-on-one matchup. Austin has the ability to break tackles for long gains when matched up in single coverage. Austin is also good at double moves, allowing him to get downfield for long pass plays.
He still has work to do, like getting off the line of scrimmage faster, running cleaner routes and using his hands more while catching the ball.
All those things happen in due time. Besides, he just got here.
He seems in better shape this year than last year. The team wanted him at 214 pounds and he's 212. He plans on playing the season at 208.
"Everything has been pretty much the same for me," he said. "I've been doing the same thing. I guess more people are paying attention now."
When asked if he thought he was a star he said, "No. I got a star on my helmet, but that's about it."
Sam Hurd, next to Romo, knows Austin the best. They broke in as undrafted rookies in 2006 and learned under Bill Parcells that in order to make the roster, you had to play well on special teams and keep your mouth shut and listen.
Hurd talks to Austin quite often and said he hasn't seen any changes in his teammate with his newfound stardom.
"That's my boy, but I don't know his [stuff] away from the field," Hurd said. "I don't get on the Internet to watch all of that. I don't watch no TMZ, E! [on television]. I don't watch none of that, I can hear it but I don't know nothing. I don't ask Miles nothing personal like that. That's his own life and I let him live that."
Ray Sherman, the Cowboys' receivers coach, is the one who pushes Austin the most. Sherman was one of only two men scouting Austin's pro day at Monmouth College back in 2006, and he loved the potential he saw. In 2006, Sherman was coaching receivers for the Tennessee Titans. He begged the Titans to draft Austin. Or at least sign him.
They didn't.
Sherman has seen Austin go from fifth string to starter and isn't worried about the sudden fame.
"Because one thing he can do is separate the personal life from the football," Sherman said. "When he's out here, he's focused on football. I don't ever get involved in their personal lives unless we feel like it's affecting us, but he's not going to let it. Knowing him, I don't think he's going to let it affect his [game]. He hasn't done that so far."
You can't help but notice Austin's smile or the attention he's getting. He's enjoying the moment, which is what Romo said a few years ago about becoming a star without ever really saying it.
Austin has to perform better this year because he wants a new contract. You talk to people in the organization, and they tell you 2010 will duplicate 2009.
Austin doesn't know what opposing defenses will do to him this season, saying politely, "You have to ask them."
There are questions about Austin.
Can he gain 1,000-plus yards again? Will he make an impact when defenses employ Cover 2 on him? Will he get free on a consistent basis when jammed at the line of scrimmage? Will he open the way for the other receivers to see more opportunities if defenses are taking him away?
"Statistically, who knows what's going to happen," he said. "But I know my effort will be the same or higher."
Calvin Watkins covers the Cowboys for ESPNDallas.com. You can follow him on Twitter or leave a question for his weekly mailbag.

Kuala Lumpur: South Africa crushed defending champions Pakistan by 98 runs (D/L method) in a rain-hit semi-final on Saturday to set up a clash with India in the under-19 World Cup final.
Pakistan, set a revised target of 252 in 47 overs in a match spread over two days due to bad weather, were shot out for 153, dashing their hopes of a third successive title in cricket's premier junior event.
Off-spinner Mohammad Vallie lifted South Africa home with 4-25 as opener Ahmad Shehzad played a lone hand for Pakistan with a fluent 60 containing six boundaries and a six.
Proteas captain Wayne Parnell and Roy Adams chipped in with two wickets each as Pakistan lost their last eight wickets for 67 runs.
The day-night final will be played at the Kinrara Oval on Sunday with a reserve day set aside in case of bad weather.
The semi-final was carried over to a second day after rain on Friday brought play to an early end with Pakistan on 86-2 from 18.5 overs in reply to South Africa's challenging 260-8.
Pakistan were unlucky to bow out after needing only five runs in seven balls if the stipulated 20 overs had been bowled on Friday.
When play finally began two hours and 20 minutes late on Saturday -- due to a wet outfield caused by heavy overnight rain -- Pakistan made the worst possible start.
Umar Amin, who was on 22 overnight after sharing a 69-run stand for the third wicket with Shehzad, fell first ball to a brilliant piece of stumping by wicketkeeper Bradley Barnes.
Barnes collected a delivery from Pieter Malan bowled wide down the leg-side and whipped off the bails with left-handed Amin short of his crease.
Pakistan were dealt a blow when star batsman Ali Asad was given out LBW to Adams by Sri Lankan umpire Tyron Wijewardene even though the ball appeared to pitch outside leg stump.
South Africa removed danger man Shehzad and Umair Mir in the space of three balls to leave Pakistan in tatters at 124-6 in the 30th over.
Shehzad miscued a lofted on-drive off Adams to point and Mir was bowled by Vallie for no score.
Vallie then took three of the last four wickets to seal Pakistan's fate.
South Africa, put in to bat first posted a solid 260/8 in stipulated 50 overs, thanks to the fine half-centuries by Jon Smuts (58), Rilee Rossouw (53) and Jonathan Vandiar (50).
Smuts and Rossouw put on 91 for the second wicket after opener Pieter Malan had fallen for 15 in the eighth over, caught behind off seamer Ali Asad.
Off-spinner Shehzad removed both Rossouw and Smuts, but Vandiar hit a run-a-ball 50 to boost the total.
South Africa, who were comfortably placed at 219-4 in the 45th over, lost three wickets for seven runs before Reeza Hendricks smashed an unbeaten 27 off 17 balls to lift his team past the 250-run mark.
Pakistan captain Imad Wasim was the most successful bowler, claiming 3-44 with his accurate left-arm spin. Seamer Mohammad Rameez and Shahzad picked up two wickets each.
"Bradley's stumping had a huge role to play," said a beaming South African coach Ray Jennings. "We planned that dismissal."
Pakistani coach Mansoor Rana said the early setback cost his team dearly.
"The idea was to bat around Amin who would be the anchor at one end while the others went for the runs," said Rana.
"I told the boys to forget what happened on Friday and see it as a 29-over game in which we needed 166 more. But losing Amin off the first ball changed the whole game."
Jennings said he looked forward to the final against India, who beat his team by six wickets in the preliminary league.
"We are the underdogs because there are huge expectations on India, but I like it that way," he said.
"We have had a tough semi-final and the boys will be playing for a third day in a row, but they are in good spirits for the final."
Brief Scores:
South Africa 260/8 in 50 overs (Jon Smuts 58, Rossouw 53, Jonathan Vandiar 50, Hendricks 27; Imad Wasim 3 for 44, Shahzad 2 for 35, Rameez 2 for 48) beat Pakistan 150 all out in 39.3 overs (Shahzad 60, Umar Amin 22; Vallie 4 for 25, Adams 2 for 22, Parnell 2 for 39) by 98 runs (D/L method).

— Goomfrey, Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door
"Yeah, I spoke to Jolene. Now who was it that she wanted "taken care of"?"
Goomfrey is a 30-year-old Goomba who lives in Rogueport. He resides near Professor Frankly's house in Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door. Goomfrey is a pretty shady character who makes a living by "eliminating problems". In fact, he helps Mario by disposing of a bunch of old, stinky boxer shorts that the plumber picked up in the Glitz Pit. An issue of the RDM later states that he attacked the Pianta Exchanger at the Pianta Parlor in anger, causing the parlor to temporarily shut down. Goomfrey also wears a hat similar to Link from The Legend of Zelda games.
- That's Goomfrey the Goomba. He looks kind of shady, I guess, but he's cool. People call him a "fixer." Y'know, a guy that can make any problem...just go away.
Names in other Languages
|Cross between "Goomba" and "Léon" (a French name)
- His name is a portmanteau of "Goomba" and the male names "Godfrey", "Jeffrey", and "Geoffrey".

The Casino Reinvestment Development Authority is providing applications for two of its grant programs: the Community Capital Development Grant and the Entertainment Grant.
The Community Capital Development grant is for local nonprofit groups who offer programs for Atlantic City residents and/or improve the appearance of the city. Past grants helped develop community gardens, fencing, landscaping, recreational equipment for seniors and a computer lab for local youth.
The grants are up to $50,000 and applications are due July 19. An announcement on the award will be in October.
"The city's most valuable assets are its residents and it is incumbent upon us to offer support in a way that is meaningful and helps to build a stronger community," John Palmieri, the CRDA executive director said in a statement. "A strong community is an integral part of the success of the Tourism District."
The entertainment grants are to support the cost of programs in the state's Tourism District that are free to the public. The grants are up to $25,000 and are awarded on a first-come first-served basis.
Applications are available at the CRDA offices at 15 S. Pennsylvania Ave. and the Atlantic City Free Public Library. They can be downloaded at www.njcrda.com.

Degree of hydrolysis of some vegetable proteins used as fining agents and its influence on polyphenol removal from red wine
- First Online:

The increasing demand for economic and efficient wine fining leads to the search for alternatives to traditionally used proteins, preferably new products with the side effect of non-allergenicity. A comparative fining trial on laboratory scale with equal quantities of vegetable proteins, partly used for the first time as fining agents for wine in Germany, was accomplished. Spectrum of wheat, rice, maize and potato proteins was expanded by enzymatic hydrolysis, additionally to evaluate influence of protein structure on fining effects. Proteins were modified by two different enzymes, proline-specific endopeptidase (PeP) and alcalase. Molecular weight distributions and degree of hydrolysis (DH) were compared to color intensity and HPLC data of phenolic marker substances primarily responsible for bitterness and astringency. With a total of 20 different varieties of fining agents, statistical evaluation was performed for a rapid exploratory analysis of taste improvement without the need for sensorial tests. Overall, influence on phenol composition and color intensity decreased with the degree of proteolysis. The effect of maize proteins and corresponding hydrolyzates was rather low, whereas maize proteins were nearly not influenced by the use of 2 different peptidases. Wheat proteins with highest proline content (about 9–10%) and molecular weight fractions of 14 and 30–45 kDa had a pronounced effect on color intensity. Rice and potato proteins with only half of proline content and molecular weight fractions mainly ranging between 10 and 32 kDa showed less effect on wine color, but preferably on phenolic marker compounds mainly responsible for bitter and astringent taste sensations.

Film director Manny Castañeda took a shot at the Aquino administration in a post on Facebook that immediately went viral.
The post gathered thousands of likes and shares and drew mixed reactions in the eyes of many netizens.Castañeda believes that the Aquino administration was well-aware of the existence of drug trades and operations in the country.
He pointed out that despite the knowledge and awareness of the Aquino administration about the illegal drug operations in the country, they did not do anything to solve the lingering drug problems which led to Castañeda's speculation that the administration is receiving money for allowing the operation of drugs in the country.

Meet Sarah Andrews, a ten year old from Tinley Park. Washing down toys with her friends, she explains her willingness to help others. " I was watching Disney Channel, all of a sudden Friends For Change, popped up," explains Andrews. " I knew I wanted to do something. I went online to search Friend's For Change,' added Andrews.
" I knew I wanted to help others".
Her friends, Hannah and Allie Johnston wanted to help as well. They just needed a little direction. Mothers are always good for advice, so the sisters and their friend went to Tiffany Johnston. Besides being a great mom, Johnston is also the Kids Life Ministry at Calvary Church in Orland Park. " I was excited that Sarah and my daughters were encouraged to make a change in the community," said Johnston.
Pushing back her hair, while organizing donations, Sarah seems wiser that her ten years. " I decided to have a garage and bake sale. All the proceeds will be going to My Joyful Heart out of Mokena. It's a kid's foundation where adults help provide kids with things they need," Andrews said.
" It costs $420 dollars to sponsor a child for the year at My Joyful Heart," said Johnston. " They get five different event packages such as personal items, Christmas gifts and even a new pillow, " she adds.
Sarah has a goal. " We would like to raise at least five hundred dollars from the garage and bake sale. I look at all the stuff I have and then I hear of kid's who have very little, " adds Sarah.
The garage sale is this Friday & Saturday, September 2 & 3 from 8am - 2 pm at 17650 Navajo Trace in Tinley Park.

I have been diagnosed with a prostatic cyst, what's the best option for treatment?READ MORE
Prostate cyst causing prostatitis?
Most cysts of the prostate are not associated with any symptoms and they are incidentally found at the time of transrectal sonography. If you are having recurring symptoms of prostatitis, and if the cyst is fairly large, aspiration of the cyst via a transrectal sonographic approach could be easily accomplished. After aspiration, if your symptoms were to diminish or disappear than the cyst could be considered causative.

Ian Ruther Converts a Holga into a Wet Plate Camera2012-12-19 4 26 Share Tweet
Ian Ruhter, Wet Plate photographer and "Alchemist", has done it again! This time, it's not huge metal sheets he's working with in his camera truck but the much lighter Holga camera! After the jump check out this latest feat in his Silver & Light project.
Ian Ruhter has modified the basic Holga camera into a wet plate Collodion camera. All that's needed is vinyl tape and square metal plates which you can acquire at wet plate supply stores, to fit the Holga format!
Below is a how-to video made by Ruhter which includes him taking his creation out for a test run!
There's always something so gratifying about doing something, such as shooting, the way the generations before us did because most often we dedicate more than double the amount of time to completing the action and, as a result, understand and gain more from the experience. Below are the results! Aren't the photos "timeless"? I'm definitely peeping (with my own cat eye glasses) into the 50s and not 2012!
Of his newly fashioned Holga, Ruhter states, as on his Facebook page, "I'm kinda hooked on this Lomography stuff." We're kind of addicted to your works too, Ruhter!
Be sure to check out our recent interview with Ruhter: Ian Ruhter and His Camera Truck, and follow Ruther's latest works on his blog.

WIMBLEDON, England -- With the focus in women's tennis on
fashion, brash personalities and photogenic teenagers, little room is left for Lindsay
The only way the game's girl-next-door will make many headlines
at Wimbledon is by winning the tournament. And she just might.
With attention elsewhere Monday, as usual, Davenport slipped quietly
into the quarterfinals for the sixth time by beating Vera Zvonareva
6-4, 6-4. Ranked No. 5, Davenport is the only top-10 player left in
her half of the draw, and she'll face unseeded Karolina Sprem on
Other obstacles looming include No. 13-seeded Maria Sharapova
and two-time defending champion Serena Williams, a potential
opponent in the final Saturday.
Davenport declined to handicap her chances of winning a fourth
Grand Slam title this week.
"I've kind of learned," she said. "Some tournaments I thought
for sure I'm going to win, and I haven't. Others I thought there's
no way, and I've come through to win. So I just kind of don't worry
about that."
She won the U.S. Open in 1998, Wimbledon in 1999 and the
Australian Open in 2000, to go with a gold medal at the 1996
Olympics. Those are big stages, and yet likable Lindsay can walk
into her favorite coffee shop in Wimbledon village and draw scant
At age 28, she finds it easier than ever to stay out of the
"The media focus a lot on the teenage players now and how times
have changed with how they dress on the court and stuff," she
said. "They get a lot of attention for a lot of different reasons.
A lot of times the stories go away from tennis now more than they
used to."
The buzz is building for the three teens still in the draw:
Sprem, who is 19; Sharapova, 17; and Tatiana Golovin, 16.
Sprem advanced to the quarterfinals by beating No. 21 Magdalena
Maleeva 6-4, 6-4. The young Croat has been unshaken by the furor
that followed the bizarre finish to her second-round upset of
two-time champion Venus Williams, when the chair umpire lost track
of the score.
Sharapova, already represented by the modeling agency affiliated
with Tyra Banks, reached the quarterfinals for the second Grand
Slam in a row by defeating Amy Frazier 6-4, 7-5. Sharapova's
opponent Tuesday will be No. 11 Ai Sugiyama, who eliminated
Tamarine Tanasugarn 6-3, 7-5.
Golovin will play Serena Williams in the fourth round Tuesday
after beating Emmanuelle Gagliardi 6-3, 2-6, 6-3. The match was
completed Monday after being suspended because of rain at 3-all in
the final set Sunday.
In the completion of another suspended match, No. 14 Silvia
Farina Elia beat Virginia Ruano Pascual 2-6, 6-4, 7-5. Farina Elia,
at 32 the oldest remaining player, will face No. 4 Amelie Mauresmo
on Tuesday for a quarterfinal berth.
Golovin was born in Russia, moved to Paris as an infant and
trained for seven years in Florida. She reached the fourth round at
this year's Australian Open as a wild card, won the mixed doubles
title at the French Open with fellow French teenager Richard
Gasquet and has already climbed to No. 54 in the rankings.
At Wimbledon she's wearing a skimpy two-piece outfit that makes
Serena Williams' audacious ensembles look modest, and their matchup
is sure to attract the attention of London tabloid photographers.
"Playing Serena is going to be amazing," Golovin said. "I'm
just really excited."
Davenport remembers what it's like to be the youngster playing a
champion. She was just 17 when she reached her first Grand Slam
quarterfinal at the 1994 Australian Open and faced Steffi Graf.
"I was excited to go out there," Davenport said. "But at the
same time I thought, 'Oh, I don't want to be embarrassed and get
killed.' "
Graf won that match and went on to win the tournament. Sometimes
older is better, and Davenport is old enough to know it.

Mortified People Share The Dumbest Thing They've Said On A Date.
23. I went on a blind double date. My roommate and his gf set me up with one of her friends. We went to Dave & Buster's. After dinner we go to play some games. There's this one game that is a giant electric chair. You sit in it and hold on to these brass handles that vibrate intensely, giving you a very odd sensation. The point is to hold on as long as possible to achieve more tickets.
Anyway, the date was going slowly and we didn't interact much at dinner. I hop on this chair and give it a try. It feels crazy and my roommate and I are laughing our butts off. She just stands about 20 feet away acting aloof. When the chair stops I keep trying to get her to come try it. I try to get a laugh out of her by acting like I'm being shocked. She turns around and leaves. Later that night my roommate tells me that her uncle was put to death in the electric chair the previous month. We live in Texas. /facepalm
24. In college, I had just walked a girl back to her dorm after a night out. We were making out in front of said dorm, I was probably about to get laid, and I said "I had a lot of fun tonight, Heather."
Her name was not Heather. I did not get laid.
25. Senior year of high school I got setup on a date with a girl who was around my age. She was clearly into me, because she'd only really dated university guys, but she'd insisted that her friends set us up on a date. So she's flirting, and I'm flirting, and all is going according to plan. We're on our second drink (legal drinking age is 18 here) and I can see where the night is headed. So I go "so you're all single now hey?" And she smiles coyly and says "yes I am" - I swear she was just shy of doing one of those sexy winks. Then she asks me if I'm single. Well of course I'm single, otherwise I wouldn't be on a date. But in my infinite wisdom, I see that as an opening to moan and complain about my ex. Twenty minutes later the date was over and I phoned my friends to go out and drown the sorrows of my own stupidity. I learnt my lesson, though: never. talk. about. ex's.
26. This is something I said and did, but it definitely fits the theme.
So I met a girl, went on a date, everything was pretty standard. I got wayyyy too drunk, but somehow charmed this girl into bed. We were getting down to business when I felt that she had a Nuva ring, which I then proceeded to pull out of her and throw onto my erection while saying "throw the ring, win a prize" like some sort of carnival game guy. Needless to say, she was immediately turned off. We didn't end up completing the deed, she kicked me out, and we never spoke again.

In September 2015, the National Ready-Mixed Concrete Association Board of Directors adopted a comprehensive building promotion plan to stem and regain concrete's loss of market share in the low/mid-rise buildings market. The main strategy: direct project promotion where NRMCA, members and industry partners work directly with developers to provide technical support and design assistance with the primary objective of converting wood and steel designs to concrete. Two other strategies provide support, including communications and advocacy. This Webinar will layout the seven basic steps toward gaining back that lost share and increase the amount of concrete placed in buildings.

Medieval vs Renaissance[edit]
How does one differentiate between Medieval vs Renaissance for the purposes of technology? Normally the Middle Ages go up to the end of the 15th century, with the Renaissance a chronological sub-set, which emphasizes certain things such as humanism and high culture. Is there a scholarly tradition of discussing "Renaissance technology"? -- Stbalbach 23:48, 2 April 2007 (UTC)
- I would say there is. Take for example the so-called artist-engineers of the Renaissance (Brunelleschi, Ghiberti, Taccola, Giorgio, da Vinci) with their abundant drawings on all kind of devices. Although these engineers flourished in the 15th century, medieval scholars are reluctant to discuss their drawings because they are so much more advanced in design and pictural representation than those of, say, de Honnecourt (13th century). Conventionally, AFAIK, the Italian Renaissance starts with dome of Florence (1420s) and reached Western Europe with the rapid spread of Gutenberg's printing press after 1450s.
- So, as a working thesis, I would propose to mark a line between medieval and Renaissance technolgy between 1420 and 1450 (Eastern Europe perhaps 1500), depending on the country we are talking about.Gun Powder Ma 13:55, 3 April 2007 (UTC)
- Ok, so for the purposes of the "Medieval technology" article, the Middle Ages end at 1420? Is this what Medieval historians like White do? -- Stbalbach 22:56, 3 April 2007 (UTC)
- They like to include Taccola's (d. 1450) sketches as they are assumed to depict mechanical devices partly long known, but no Medievalists would lightly speak of da Vinci's drawings, Brunelleschi's dome or Gutenberg's printing press as still essentially medieval. Note that I left out any references to these things in Medieval technology. Regards Gun Powder Ma 23:51, 3 April 2007 (UTC)
I have not filled in the date column, because I am not certain of what they are. I only know the approximate dates of introduction to Britain. In some cases the dates may be controversial. Peterkingiron 23:51, 6 April 2007 (UTC)
- That's ok as far as I am concerned. Much better to leave the space open than to introduce uncertain stuff. We'll work on it. Gun Powder Ma 16:31, 7 April 2007 (UTC)
I'm not sure I would agree that Medieval technology stops at the end of the 14th century, nor would many sources.. but this is part of an older and larger debate since the 19th century. -- 22:25, 4 April 2007 (UTC)
- Sometimes to be best not to try to define such boundaries too closely. One possibility is the fall of Constantinople in 1453. In Britain, 1485 (a change of dynasty) is a convenient date, but that is for a political event not a cultural one. The important thing is to ensure that we do not get overlapping articles (which may contradict each other. Peterkingiron 23:45, 6 April 2007 (UTC)
- Really, there is no exact line to draw. Renaissance literature, for example, starts concentionally with Dante as early as 1340! One of many borderline case is oil print (ca. 1410) which I just added to medieval technology, although it could be argued just as well that the technique really lifted-off with the Renaissance. But, well, this is work in progress....isn't it. ;-) Regards Gun Powder Ma 16:31, 7 April 2007 (UTC)

Shouldn't the links of all of the notable inventions of the era in the first paragraph go to a page about why they're significant? I clicked on the "double dome" link, and it led me to the specific example instead of an article about why it's a significant example of technological breakthroughs of the renaissance era.

Parker Waichman LLP Injury Alerts
MORE DANGER IN THE MEDICINE CABINET: The Anti-Psychotic Drugs Seroquel, Risperdal, and Zyprexa.Sep 1, 2003 It has recently come to light that three drugs, which are commonly prescribed for schizophrenia and other psychotic illnesses are associated with an increased risk of developing diabetes or causing complications in patients who have already been diagnosed with diabetes. Seroquel (made by AstraZeneca), Risperdal (made by Jannsen Pharmaceutical), and Zyprexa (made by Eli Lilly), are now associated with higher rates of diabetes than older anti-psychotic drugs.
This information was obtained from the results of a study of patients treated at veteran's hospitals and clinics throughout the United States. The study, which was based on the analysis of medical records from 19,878 veterans who were treated with anti-psychotics from October 1998 to October 2001, highlighted the risks associated with Risperdal as well as Seroquel and Zyprexa. Of 5,981 veterans who took Zyprexa, 200, or 3.34 percent, developed diabetes, compared with 170, or 2.43 percent, of 7,009 veterans taking Haldol or another older medication. Of 5,901 patients taking Risperdal, 193, or 3.27 percent, developed diabetes; 21, or 2.39 percent, of 877 veterans taking Seroquel developed the illness. All three drugs raised a patient's chances of developing the illness by about 50 percent, but the meaning of the increased risk among patients taking Seroquel was unclear because of the smaller number of subjects who took the drug, the researchers said. The risk also appears to be heightened for patients under age 54.
These three drugs, while intended to help, are now associated with serious side effects and, as a result, have become the subject of several lawsuits. This situation is just another example of drugs being rushed to market prematurely. The economic pressure on pharmaceutical companies to recover the money spent for research and development has become a significant factor in FDA approvals which are becoming more and more questionable with each new drug that manifests dangerous side-effects within a relatively short period after release. This has lead public interest watchdog groups like Public Citizen to strongly recommend that people wait five to seven years before taking any new drug in order to appreciate more fully the severity and extent of any potentially dangerous side effects. (http://www.citizen.org/hrg).
In addition, there is a growing concern that the scope of drug warnings given to the public in this country is often inferior, less informative, or too slowly updated when compared to warnings in other countries regarding the very same drugs. The United States has also lagged far behind other countries in ordering drugs off the market once their ineffectiveness or dangerous qualities have become known or strongly suspected. Parker & Waichman has consistently brought our subscribers timely information regarding dangerous drugs in numerous Newsletters and on our website.
Seroquel, manufactured by AstraZeneca, is an oral medication used to manage the symptoms of schizophrenia such as delusions, thought disorder, hallucinations, social withdrawal, lack of energy, apathy, and reduced ability to express emotion. The anti-psychotic, which was approved by the FDA for marketing in 1997, affects a broad range of neurotransmitter receptors, including serotonin receptors.
News of Seroquel's side effects emerged as a result of data gathered at a medical conference in Philadelphia which showed that patients on Seroquel had 3.34 times as many cases of diabetes as those on older anti-psychotics.
Towards the end of August, news of the serious side effects associated with Seroquel caused AstraZeneca's stock to slip almost one percent. Just a few days later, the law firms of Parker & Waichman and Aylstock, Witkens & Sasser announced that a class action lawsuit had been commenced in the United States District Court for the Middle District of Florida on behalf of all those who had used Seroquel. The lawsuit contends that AstraZeneca was aware that Seroquel caused a high occurrence of diabetes, yet did not take steps to adequately warn doctors or patients in the United States of this potential risk.
The Japanese label for Seroquel, however, includes a detailed warning regarding the risk of diabetes and instructs medical professionals to carefully monitor patients using the drug. The Japanese label reads as follows:
Seroquel (Quetiapine) is contraindicated for use in patients with diabetes or a history of diabetes. Seroquel (Quetiapine) should be used with caution in patients with risk factors for diabetes, including hyperglycemia, obesity or a family history of diabetes. Patients receiving Seroquel (Quetiapine) should be carefully monitored for symptoms of hyperglycemia and the drug should be discontinued if such symptoms occur. The symptoms of severe hyperglycemia include weakness, excessive eating, excessive thirst, and excessive urination. Physicians should educate patients and their family members about the risk of serious hyperglycemia associated with Seroquel (Quetiapine) and how to identify the symptoms of hyperglycemia.
AstraZeneca has still not adopted this safer and more accurate label for the distribution of Seroquel in the United States.
The pending lawsuit seeks statutory, exemplary and punitive damages from the defendants for the flagrant disregard for the lives and health of the plaintiffs and class members. The lawsuit also alleges that AstraZeneca aggressively marketed and promoted Seroquel for "off label" use that was beyond its FDA approved indications. AstraZeneca is accused of offering incentives to doctors and other medical professionals in order to increase the number of Seroquel prescriptions that were written. Finally, the class action lawsuit seeks to establish a medical monitoring fund to pay for anyone who has taken Seroquel so that they can be tested for diabetes and other blood sugar disorders.
Anyone who has used Seroquel is encouraged to visit www.seroquelclassaction.com to request a free, no obligation case evaluation. A case evaluation can also be requested by contacting Parker & Waichman at 1-800-YOURLAWYER (1-800-968-7529) or online at www.yourlawyer.com.
Risperdal, which is manufactured by Jannsen Pharmaceuticals, a division of Johnson & Johnson, is another anti-psychotic drug which has been linked to diabetes and, more specifically, Type 2 diabetes. Other serious side effects, however, include Neuroleptic Malignant Syndrome (NMS), Tardive Dyskinesia, stroke or stroke-like events, and even death. (NMS is a potentially fatal syndrome involving muscle rigidity, and irregular blood pressure and pulse. Tardive Dyskinesia is a central nervous system disorder which results in involuntary movement of the limbs and twitching of the face and tongue.) Although it is primarily used for treating schizophrenia, Risperdal is also used to control other behavioral disorders in elderly patients with dementia and Alzheimer's disease such as delusions, aggression, and anxiety.
For the past few months, Risperdal has been under scrutiny for causing the aforementioned severe side effects. Although the drug was approved by the FDA in 1994, it took some time before the dangerous side effects were completely identified though a series of studies.
On April 11th of 2003 Johnson & Johnson sent letters to thousands of physicians in the United States advising them of the possible risk of stroke among elderly patients taking Risperdal. This came after Johnson & Johnson had received 37 reports of stroke or related events such as blood clots or hemorrhages, including 16 deaths. As a result of these findings, Johnson & Johnson updated the warning label on Risperdal to include more specific information about strokes in the elderly. At this time it became apparent that Risperdal should not be used to treat dementia as there is no evidence that it is safe or effective in that capacity.
Risperdal has been known to cause irregular headaches, muscle weakness and spasms, high fever, constipation, weight gain, and headaches. Anyone who is currently taking Risperdal and has not already been made aware of the various health risks associated with the anti-psychotic should speak to their medical professional immediately.
Zyprexa, like Risperdal and Seroquel, has been found to cause serious side effects in patients, especially those who have already been diagnosed with diabetes. Knowledge of the dangers of Zyprexa were discovered as a result of a series of findings beginning in 2001 when the FDA was alerted to 19 case reports of diabetes associated with the drug. One of these cases resulted in death due to necrotizing pancreatitis, a condition in which cells in the pancreas die.
An emergency report issued by the Japanese Health and Welfare Ministry in April of 2002 concerning the side effects of Zyprexa noted that there had been two deaths of patients who had diabetes prior to taking the anti-psychotic medication. It also reported that there had been seven other patients who lost consciousness or slipped into comas after taking the drug.
In April of 2003, the Wall Street Journal ran a front page article on Zyprexa and the other anti-psychotics mentioned in this Newsletter and their connection to developing cases of diabetes in patients. The article estimated that somewhere around 11 million people have taken Zyprexa. An eight-year study found that nearly 300 patients developed diabetes, 75 became seriously ill, and 23 died. Although the FDA was aware of these cases, it has not decided whether Zyprexa is directly responsible for the illnesses and deaths and still does not require that a warning appear on the label.
In addition to the Wall Street Journal article, five lawsuits were filed against Eli Lilly and Co. accusing the company of failing to warn Zyprexa patients of the risk of diabetes. The plaintiffs are seeking damages of up to $35 million. In order to confront the charges, Lilly sponsored two patient trials and opened its files of Zyprexa patients to an outside researcher to study the issue. The lawsuits claim that Lilly knew that the product was extremely dangerous and unsafe and that it never took the necessary steps to provide this critical information to medical professionals or patients.
Finally, in May of 2003 forty reports of hyperglycemia (elevated blood sugar), diabetes mellitus, or exacerbation of diabetes were received in the UK including one which proved to be fatal.
Despite all the negative publicity, Zyprexa has, in fact, been proven to successfully treat schizophrenia. Lilly officials are concerned that the lawsuits might cause doctors to abstain from prescribing the anti-psychotic and that people who need the drug may never actually begin treatment. If you are currently taking Zyprexa and are not aware of the updates on side-effects, you should contact your physician or other medical professional immediately to receive all the necessary information.
Seroquel, Risperdal, and Zyprexa are three drugs with dangerous side effects which should not be overlooked and should be taken very seriously. The issue of these present risks has become more pressing as the drugs are now being prescribed for adults with milder medical conditions and even children who may not really need as strong a prescription drug to treat their various symptoms. At this point, the critical consideration is whether the actual benefits of these drugs outweigh the potentially dangerous side effects, the rate of adverse incidents reported, and the cost of the drugs themselves. The option of prescribing older, less risky drugs is also a consideration.
Another factor which must be taken into account is the strong connection between diabetes and schizophrenia which has been noted and studied by scientists since the 1920's. Patients with schizophrenia and other forms of mental illnesses develop diabetes at a rate up to four times higher than the general population, whether they are on anti-psychotics or not. This is due to the fact that people with schizophrenia often display many of the risk factors associated with diabetes such as leading a sedentary lifestyle, lacking good medical care, and having poor diets and high rates of obesity.
The research surrounding Seroquel, Ripserdal, and Zyprexa is still developing and will undoubtedly be updated in the near future. It is the opinion of many physicians that although people with schizophrenia and other serious mental illnesses are at a greater risk of developing diabetes anyway, if they did not have diabetes before being prescribed an anti-psychotic and developed symptoms as a result of taking any of the above medications, then it is the drug that should be held responsible for their deteriorating physical health.
For more information on Seroquel, Risperdal and Zyprexa please visit the Parker and Waichman website at http://www.yourlawyer.com and continue to check the website for further information and updates on the current health risks and lawsuits surrounding these potentially dangerous drugs.

Boscoe Cooks ........ Herb Crusted Chicken Pot Pie
Recipe by Mark B.
I must apologize for not staying in touch these past 6 days. It's just that life got in the way, and the next thing I knew, most of the week had come and gone without any input at my end. Of course a dear friend passed away, I developed a serious infection in two of my teeth and Verizon decided to once again screw up my internet for 3 days. So I guess I do have a pretty good explanation for my absence, and a very good reason for craving comfort food, food for the soul............. especially something that's rich, satisfying and easy to prepare. The first thing that comes to mind is my Herb Crusted Chicken Pot Pie with its flaky herb crust, rich creamy sauce, garden fresh vegetables and chunks of dark and white chicken. This dish is all about comfort.........your favorite torn jeans, flannel shirt, fluffy slippers, oversized tee shirt, pj's, bathrobe, etc.......... and begs you to dig in, kick back and relax. I hope you'll agree...............

- 9.85 ml poultry seasoning
- 59.14 ml dry white wine
For The Egg Wash
- 1 egg yolk, beaten
- 118.29 ml light cream
Directions See How It's Made
- For The Herb Crust:.
- Blend first 5 ingredients in food processor until herbs are finely chopped. Add the butter and shortening and blend until mixture resembles a coarse meal. Transfer mixture to a large bowl, and using a fork, mix in ice water a little at a time, until dough forms moist clumps. Gather dough into ball and flatten it into a disk. Wrap in plastic wrap and chill it for 30 minutes. .
- For the Chicken Sauce and Vegetables:.
- In a large skillet, melt 2 tablespoons of butter and add the garlic. Saute for 2 minutes. Add the carrots, onions, mushrooms, green beans, celery and potatoes. Saute for 5 minutes. Set aside with chicken. Wipe skillet clean. Add 6 tablespoons of butter, melt till slightly sizzling and stir in the flour to create your roux. Stir constantly until cooked and lightly browned, about 5 minutes. Stir in the chicken stock and cream, bring to a boil. Reduce heat to simmer, and stirring frequently, cook for another 10-15 minutes or until sauce reaches the consistency of very heavy cream. Stir in the poultry seasoning. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Add white wine and stir thoroughly. Set aside and let cool to room temperature.
- To Assemble:.
- Preheat oven to 400'. Place chicken, sauteed veggies and peas into a 13"x9" baking dish. Pour cooled sauce over chicken and veggie mixture, and stir to incorporate. Remove dough from refrigerator and allow to sit at room temperature for a few minutes. Roll out on lightly floured surface into a rectangle 15"x11". Use rolling pin to wind up the dough for transfer to the baking dish. Unwind the dough across the top of the pot pie filling. Fold overhanging dough back underneath itself so that the folded edge is flush with the lip of the baking dish. Flute the dough if desired. Combine the beaten egg yolk with the cream and brush liberally over the crust. Cut 6 - 1 inch slits in the pastry dough, starting at the left side and moving to the right, so that you have 2 on the far left, 2 in the middle and 2 on the far right side. Place pie on a foil lined baking pan and put into center of the oven. Bake for 30-35 minutes, until hot and bubbling. If crust should start to brown too quickly, place a sheet of foil over it for protection. .
