text: Would anyone be upset if we added the following players this offseason? Jerome Tuman TE Steelers- Heath Miller has played extremely well for the Steelers. He might be able to find a starting job somewhere but he could probably be had. He's from Liberal Kansas so moving closer to the midwest could pull him. But he's the solid blocking backup tight end with a little recieving talent that I think would be a big boost Fred Beasley FB 49ers- I think this guy would be a huge add. He seems to be the type of FB that Parcells prefers and can't be happy with what is going on in SF. Matt Wilhelm LB Chargers- Great Special teams player. He was much more athletic at the combines than I thought he would be a few years ago. The Chargers have very good depth at LB maybe it's a lack of opportunity but I think he and Shanle could do very well filling in for Dat and should come cheap. Pastabelly compares hin to Vrabel but who knows. He seems to be a solid guy that could fight for a starting spot. Kalimba Edwards DE/OLB Lions- An undersized edge rusher. He's seems to be athletic enough to be a 3-4 OLB. His lack of bulk and liability against the run should drive his price down to a reasonable level. There isn't alot out there that jumps at you when you look at the OL free agents, unfortunately our biggest need IMO. It seems that our only route of adding quality guys is going to be in the draft AGAIN.

--OF Josh Hamilton, who performed three head-first slides Tuesday just two days after being reinstated from the disabled list, will test himself in the outfield again Friday before the series opener with Kansas City. If that goes well, Hamilton is expected to return to the outfield Saturday.
--1B/DH Michael Young will be playing in his 1,558th career game, all with the Rangers, if he's in the lineup Friday. It would leave him 15 shy of the club mark held by Rafael Palmeiro. Young is one of eight active players to have at least 1,500 games all with one big-league club. Derek Jeter leads at 2,341.
--Not even a third of the way into his first season as the Rangers' new TV play-by-play voice, John Rhadigan was replaced Thursday. Veteran Dave Barnett will move over from radio to helm the TV broadcast with Tom Grieve. Rhadigan had no real play-by-play experience and struggled to grasp the pace of the game.
--RHP Colby Lewis, though only 2-2 in May, has a shot at the AL Pitcher of the Month award if he can continue Friday what he's done all month. Lewis has a 1.74 ERA in four starts, during which he's averaged 7 2/3 innings. He's also walked 24 and struck just five. A big obstacle for him, though, is teammate RHP Alexi Ogando, who pitches Sunday. Ogando is third in the AL in May ERA at 1.27
--RHP Brandon Webb will throw a bullpen session for management on Friday. If that goes well, he will begin a rehab assignment with Class AA Frisco on Monday. Webb has not pitched in a major league game since Opening Day 2009. He had right shoulder surgery in August 2009.
3.28 -- Texas' staff ERA for May, including 2.78 by the starters. With five games to go, the Rangers are more than a tenth of a run below the best monthly ERA since the club moved into the hitter-friendly Ballpark in Arlington. The Rangers had a 3.40 ERA last June.
"We've been riding him pretty hard. His stuff was much crisper. He threw the baseball exactly where he wanted to throw it. Maybe a week or so ago, he just wasn't able to execute like he wanted to." -- Manager Ron Washington, on the difference in 40-year-old LHP Darren Oliver, who nimbly pitched out of an eighth-inning jam Wednesday after going five days between outings.

Is The Correction Over?
1to5MinChart, DailyChart, 120to144MinChart
Is The Correction Over?
1to5MinChart, DailyChart, 120to144MinChart
There are times in the market to be aggressive. There are times in the market to be protective. And, then there are times in the market to be cautiously optimistic. Right now, I remain cautiously optimistic.
Last weekend, we were looking for the market to head to lower levels before we would expect a bottoming:
In the immediate perspective, as long as we remain below Friday's high, I am still expecting a test of the lower levels cited above. A break out over Friday's high is the first indication that a bottom to this correction may have been struck, and I will be looking for the next bullish (i)(ii) set up to provide me higher assurance of that assumption.
This past week, the market headed down towards our lower target for the 5th wave of this correction, and consolidated near the lower end of our target before seeing a pre-market spike and reversal at a minor Fib support level on our chart at 25.17.
While the rally off that lower region seemed quite powerful in the GDX, I am not as impressed with the action I have seen in the GLD or silver. Even though I am maintaining an open mind regarding a bottom being in place, I still do not have strong confirmation that the market has begun a rally to appreciably higher levels just yet.
Even before the market struck the bottom on Thursday, I sent out an Alert with a chart looking for the market to rally off the 25.17 region to the 26-26.50 region, and our higher target was struck later that day. However, I continually noted that if the market was going to prove a bottom was in place, that would only be a wave 1 in a larger wave (i), which should be targeting the at least the 28.50 region, from which we recently broke down. A move up towards that region would represent a sizeable 5 wave structure off the low, and would provide us with a strong initial confirmation that we are setting up for another major rally phase.
As you can see on the 8 minute GDX chart, we still have not completed the full 5 waves off that low, and need to complete waves v of 3, 4 and 5 of wave (i) to give us a strong bottoming signal. Any break down below 26.80 at this point can open the market to a drop down to the 24.35 region, as presented by the alt 4 in red, or would suggest that we have begun the blue b-wave rally we have noted on the daily chart.
Ultimately, if the market does not complete this 5 wave structure off this past week's low, then I think we will likely see the 22-24.35 region before this correction completes, which may take us the entire month of September to play out.
When I turn to silver, which has been presenting strong bottoming signals, the rally of its low is in the same position as the one in the GDX. It suggests that we will likely head to a lower low towards 18 region if we are unable to complete a 5 wave structure off this recent low. And, as noted many times before, the GLD has been holding its support really well thus far, and, from a wave structure, presents as does the GDX and silver, but has a more questionably impulsive initial move off the low struck this week.
So, if it sounds like I want to be optimistic, but do not have enough information to be confidently optimistic, you are right. The market has not given me any reason just yet to be confidently optimistic. But, should you see the market continue up early in the coming week to fill in the rest of the pattern I have shown on my chart, then you will know my attitude towards the market will have turned confidently optimistic.
And, no matter what the market does, as soon as it provides us with an appropriate pattern to increase our confidence in what is playing out, I will send out an alert so we can narrow down the possibilities. But, for now, I am cautiously optimistic regarding the resumption of the bullish trend, but will still be protective of my long term long positions until greater confidence can be attained for the next bullish phase.

A St. John the Baptist Parish jury on Friday convicted Errol Victor of second-degree murder and his wife, Tonya, of manslaughter in the death of Tonya Victor's 8-year-old son, M.L Lloyd III after a bizarre trial in which the Victors represented themselves.
A conviction for second-degree murder carries a mandatory life sentence. Manslaughter, under Louisiana law, carries a term of 10 to 40 years when the victim is under 10 years old.
The jury agreed with prosecutors' contention that a brutal beating — delivered by either M.L.'s mother or stepfather — was the reason the child was pronounced dead at River Parishes Hospital on April 1, 2008.
Prosecutors said M.L was savagely whipped with a belt for stealing an ice-cream snack.
Four of Tonya Victor's biological sons testified that it was Errol Victor who beat the child that day.
In chilling testimony, they characterized Errol Victor as an abusive and controlling stepfather, who often withheld food from his stepchildren while allowing his own kids to eat as much as they pleased.
They also stated Errol Victor had other children hold M.L down while he flogged him on the day he died.
Toi Williams, 21, said M.L was "crying and crying" and Errol Victor was "throwing him around, punching him."
He testified that M.L was bleeding badly, and Errol Victor applied rubbing alcohol to the wounds.
But five of Errol Victor's sons offered a much different version of events, testifying that their father wasn't home at the time of the assault and that it was Tonya Victor who beat M.L.
The child was brought to the hospital by his parents later in the day and was pronounced dead upon arrival.
The Victors represented themselves in the case, an unusual maneuver that at times left prosecutors and Judge Mary Hotard Becnel visibly frustrated with the couple's lack of legal knowledge and courtroom decorum.
Under cross-examination from her own husband, Tonya Victor admitted she had physically reprimanded the child. However, when shown photographs of M.L's bruised body, she denied inflicting the full extent of the injuries.
The couple was living in Reserve with 13 children, 11 from previous marriages, at the time of the death.
They contended M.L died from an asthma attack, though they acknowledged the child was disciplined on the day he died.
But the coroner listed "asphyxia due to neck compression" as the cause of death, and an autopsy showed extensive bruising.
The second-degree murder charge meant prosecutors only had to prove the two intended to inflict great bodily harm on the child, but not necessarily kill him.
The Victors had been indicted three times over six years for the killing.
They were scheduled for trial in August 2011, but fled on the eve of proceedings. They spent eight months on the run, even appearing on the show "America's Most Wanted."
They were arrested in 2012 in a mobile home in Georgia based on a tip from someone who had seen them on television.

Students of PMP studies need not worry about paying for over-priced textbooks anymore – renting textbooks is an option! PMP textbooks – for example PMP: Project Management Professional Exam Study Guide by [Kim Heldman], and PMP Exam Success Series: Placemat, Vol. 3 by [Tony Johnson] – are often some of the most frequently updated books by Publishing companies. The field of PMP is constantly changing, and new editions can come yearly and at a huge cost to students who continually buy new books. So why buy when you can rent cheap textbooks? There are plenty of PMP books to rent – BookRenter has of them all!
Used book sales can be a cheap option as well, but often can be more expensive than textbook rentals. However, there are very few return policies with used books, and especially when taking PMP classes, buying a used book can be dangerous and costly.

Stronger together
In a collaboration of three groups at the Department of Physics, a device has been created that strongly couples quantum states of light and matter. This hybrid system opens up novel routes to combining the advantages of different quantum platforms — and to a host of possible applications.
One of the outstanding achievements of modern physics is the development of experimental methods for isolating, manipulating and controlling systems that display quantum-mechanical behaviour. Having a practical handle on quantum systems enables fundamental studies to test the often counter-intuitive predictions of quantum theory, but also provides the tools for novel technological applications in areas ranging from computation and communication to sensing. But whereas individual quantum technologies are getting increasingly mature, a current challenge is to construct hybrid devices that integrate several types of quantum systems in one experimental platform. Addressing this challenge, ETH physicists Anna Stockklauser, Pasquale Scarlino and their colleagues in the group of Andreas Wallraff have now teamed up with the fellow ETH groups of Thomas Ihn and Klaus Ensslin and of Werner Wegscheider to construct a device in which single electrical charges in a semiconductor are strongly coupled to a superconducting resonator that hosts photons — the 'quanta of light' — in the microwave-frequency range. The coupling between the two quantum systems is stronger than has been realized so far in any other hybrid system of this sort and might pave the way to a wide spectrum of applications.
The range of quantum systems that have become available to experimentalists over the past few decades extends from single atoms, ions and photons to complex engineered systems, including micrometre-size superconducting circuits and semiconductor structures. Combining the expertise of Wallraff's Quantum Device Lab in superconducting systems and that of the Nanophysics group of Ensslin and Ihn in semiconductor structures, and working with the fabrication experts in Wegscheider's Advanced Semiconductor Quantum Materials lab, Stockklauser and Scarlino had the pieces in place to design and construct a unique new hybrid device. Coupled semiconductor–superconductor systems have been demonstrated before, but in the new device, the coupling is up to six times stronger than in previous designs. Importantly, the coupling exceeds the limit where energy can be exchanged at a rate that is faster than the losses from either of the sub-systems. In other words, quanta in the two delicate quantum systems can be made to work before their energy is lost due to unavoidable disturbances from outside.
The key to the successful device design is an array of 32 superconducting quantum interference devices, or SQUIDs (see the figure above). This element significantly increases the impedance of the system; that is, it is more difficult for a current to enter the circuit. This in turn implies that the field in the microwave cavity has a strong electric component, which then efficiently couples to the individual electric charges in the semiconductor structure.
This sort of coupling is important, as microwave photons can be relatively easily transmitted from one location to another. The new device should therefore be useful, for example, for coupling distant semiconductor or other solid-state systems. And as the frequency of the cavity is tunable, the hybrid system can also be used for mapping out the properties of the electrons in the material it contains, as Stockklauser and Scarlino demonstrate. The versatility of their approach means that the method could be applied to a broad variety of quantum systems based on electrical charges.
The collaboration between these three groups in the Department of Physics is a powerful example of how expertise in different fields can be successfully brought together to create an innovative approach to an important problem. This effort has been further supported by the Swiss National Science Foundation through the National Centre of Competence in Research (NCCR) Quantum Science and Technology (QSIT), where ETH Zurich is the leading house.

12 tips for surviving a drought in the garden
3 Comments »
as you wrote this great article, i was laying old bricks around my vegetable beds, they do keep the soil moist underneath.
having gardened in the far desert, i can share these tips with you.
lay newspapers on walkways, soak well, add one inch of grass clippings or other mulch and step on it to tamp it down.
plant tall foliage near precious perennials to provide shading.
water plants individually as per need, not the whole garden.
and most of all deep water early in season, then let plants shade their roots..
Great tips! I like the point about pond plants helping to stop evaporation.

The trio of Bryan Sutton, David Holt and T. Michael Coleman first performed together at Merlefest in 2011. "It was a good fit," said guitarist Bryan Sutton, who has performed at four different editions of SMF: with the Tim O'Brien Band, Noam Pikelny & Friends, Hot Rize and his own band. "We all cut our teeth on the same music." Over the years, all three artists won Grammys with the legendary Doc Watson. Coleman played bass with Doc in the 1970s and '80s, Holt played with Doc as a duo starting in 1998 and Sutton and Doc won a Grammy for their duo performance of "Whiskey Before Breakfast." This musical common ground allows for seamless communication between the three on traditional tunes and originals.
Banjo player Noam Pikelny has performed at SMF on multiple occasions with the Punch Brothers, and leading his own band. Hailed by the Chicago Tribune as the "pros' top banjo picker," Noam is a founding member of the Punch Brothers, a string ensemble which The Boston Globe calls "a virtuosic revelation" and The New Yorker describes as "wide-ranging and restlessly imaginative." In September of 2010, Pikelny was awarded the first annual Steve Martin Prize for Excellence in Banjo and Bluegrass. Pikelny is a three-time Grammy Award nominee. His album Noam Pikelny Plays Kenny Baker Plays Bill Monroe was described by The New York Times as "a token of reverence, a feat of translation and a show of dominion," and was named Album of the Year at the 2014 IBMA Awards.

- Before investing in ETFs, it's important to examine costs, structure and the ETF sponsor, along with the fund's track record.
- Depending on your circumstances, ETF characteristics and investment strategies will vary in importance.
- Guidelines to help investors choose ETFs.
ETF investing—a multitude of choices
Almost every investment niche—from small-cap stocks to emerging markets or oil—can be fulfilled by a vast range of exchange-traded funds (ETFs). Faced with many alternatives within the same fund categories, how do you choose among them? While every situation is unique, here are some guidelines to help you with your research.
The Schwab ETF Select List
This may sound too simple, but if you're looking for a single ETF in a given category, you can easily find one on the Schwab ETF Select List™. The funds on this list have been picked based on the characteristics you'll see below. If you just need one ETF for a specific part of the market, you'll likely find a candidate on the Select List.1
What do you want the ETF to do?
First, make sure you're not missing the forest for the trees. You're not looking to just buy any ETF simply because you've heard that ETFs are great; you're looking for exposure to international small-cap stocks, or corporate bonds, or a diversified basket of commodities—whatever part of the market you'd like to invest in.
Make sure any ETFs you're considering are actually invested in the part of the market you're looking for. Picking an ETF requires a number of steps—looking at a fund's Morningstar Category can help, and digging deeper to look at a fund's actual holdings is also a good idea. ETFs that initially seem similar may actually be very different.
Costs matter
Once you've found some ETFs with the market exposure you're seeking, look at their costs. You'll want to think about three different types of ETF costs, and their relative importance depends on how you plan to use the ETF in your portfolio:
- Operating Expense Ratio (OER): This is the ongoing cost that the ETF manager charges for managing the portfolio. When people talk about ETFs having low costs, they usually mean the OER, which can be a tenth of a percent (0.10%) or lower for some ETFs (but can be much higher, of course). If you plan to hold the ETF for more than a year, this is probably the most important cost.
- Bid/ask spread: Whenever you buy or sell anything on an exchange, the price you get will be determined in part by market makers—traders who stand ready to buy and sell a specific stock or ETF all day long. They'll be willing to sell you shares at one price (the "ask," or "offer" price) and buy shares from you at a slightly lower price (the "bid" price). The "true" price of the security on the exchange at that moment is the midpoint between the bid and ask prices. Whenever you trade, you're basically losing half of the bid-ask spread, since you either buy at the higher bid price or sell at the lower ask price. If you plan to hold an ETF for less than a year, this cost can matter more than the OER.
- Commission: Because ETFs trade intraday like stocks, your broker will usually charge you a commission for each trade. The smaller your investment and the more frequently you trade, the more important the commission. You may be able to get some ETFs commission-free (for instance, ETFs on the Schwab ETF OneSource platform can be traded online in Schwab accounts with no commission2), which can be a huge benefit in the cost analysis, especially if you're making a small investment or if you don't plan to hold the ETF for years.
When we analyze ETFs for the Schwab ETF Select List, we put the OER, bid-ask spread and commission on the same playing field, and assume a holding period of one year.
Here's a general formula for calculating the annual total cost of ownership:
+ Bid-Ask Spread ÷ years you plan to hold the ETF
+ 2 × dollar commission ÷ $ amount of investment ÷ years ETF will be held
Approximate Cost of Ownership per year
So, for an ETF with an OER of 0.10%, a bid-ask spread of 0.15%, a six-month holding period, an $8.95 trading commission and a $10,000 investment, the annual total cost of ownership is 0.76% per year:
0.15% ÷ 0.5
+ (2 × 4.95 ÷ 10,000) ÷ 0.5
0.60% per year
Check the track record
Once you've found the lowest-cost ETFs that meet your needs, and assuming they've been around long enough to have established a history, take a look at their track records.
- Has an ETF succeeded in gathering assets? If an ETF doesn't have at least $20 million under management, it might eventually be closed by its sponsor.
- Is there reasonable trading volume? If an ETF is very thinly traded, it's more likely to have wider bid-ask spreads.
- Has an ETF generally traded at a price close to the true value of the underlying basket of securities (net asset value, or NAV)? You want to make sure that the price at which you buy or sell an ETF will be close to the true value.
- Has an index ETF's performance been similar to the performance of the index it's aiming to track? To measure an index ETF's tracking error relative to its underlying index, look at the ETF's most recent annual or semi-annual report. (Schwab clients can find these on the individual ETF's page under "All Fund Documents.") These reports will generally include a chart that shows the performance of the ETF and the performance of the index on the same chart. Ideally, these two lines should remain very close to one another throughout the fund's history. If there are significant periods where the ETF outperforms or underperforms the index, this could be a sign that the ETF manager is struggling to match the index portfolio.
Consider the structure
ETFs have different legal structures, some of which can be confusing. For stock and bond ETFs, you'll generally see either funds regulated under the Investment Company Act of 1940 or Unit Investment Trusts, which function fairly similarly to one another (with the reinvestment of dividends being the only notable difference—unit investment trusts can't reinvest dividends they receive from stocks in their portfolios). Commodity ETFs, however, have more structural issues to consider:
- Commodity ETFs that hold a physical commodity such as precious metals are usually structured as Grantor Trusts. Gains are taxed as collectibles at a rate of up to 28% currently, but the funds do not issue K-1 statements.
- Commodity ETFs that hold futures contracts (most commodity ETFs other than precious metals) are usually structured as Limited Partnerships. These funds report shareholders' share of partnership income on Schedule K-1 instead of Form 1099 and are vulnerable to contango (when the future price of the commodity is higher than the current price). K-1s are more complex to handle on a tax return than 1099s, but professional tax preparers or well-informed individuals who do their own taxes should be able to handle K-1s correctly.
- When the commodity is in contango, ETFs that track indexes of the near-term futures contract are likely to perform worse than ETFs that track indexes that include longer-dated futures contracts.
Consider the firm
As with any investment, due diligence is important. You want to pick ETFs with strong companies behind them, just as you would with a mutual fund. Stable management and a clean record with regulators are what you're looking for, so check the latest news or SEC filings on ETF companies you're considering.
Strategy for Choosing an ETF: A Process Flow Chart
ETF investing strategy summary—bringing it all together
Choosing among the multitude of ETFs that exist in many categories can be a little tricky, but sticking to a few basic tenets can help. You'll note that "highest past performance" was not on the list of criteria for picking an ETF; your investment decision should be driven by your future goals. And above all, remember to start your ETF research by picking ETFs with the investment mandate that you're looking for and low costs, rather than simply chasing performance.
1. While participation in the Schwab ETF OneSource program is not a requirement for consideration for the ETF Select List™, cost of ownership is a significant component of the evaluation of ETFs for the ETF Select List. Therefore, ETFs in the Schwab ETF OneSource program will have an advantage over non-participating ETFs in making the ETF Select List, because the calculation used to evaluate ETFs for inclusion on the ETF Select List includes the cost of two online commissions (a buy and a sell). Commissions can add significantly to the cost of ownership, particularly for transactions in smaller amounts. Learn more about the selection criteria for Schwab OneSource ETFs™.
2. Conditions Apply: Trades in ETFs available through Schwab ETF OneSource™ (including Schwab ETFs™) are available without commissions when placed online in a Schwab account. Service charges apply for trade orders placed through a broker ($25) or by automated phone ($5). An exchange processing fee applies to sell transactions. Certain types of Schwab ETF OneSource transactions are not eligible for the commission waiver, such as short sells and buys to cover (not including Schwab ETFs). Schwab reserves the right to change the ETFs we make available without commissions. All ETFs are subject to management fees and expenses. Please see the "Charles Schwab Pricing Guide" for additional information.
Charles Schwab & Co., Inc. receives remuneration from third-party ETF companies participating in Schwab ETF OneSource™ for record keeping, shareholder services and other administrative services, including program development and maintenance.

Ryan Giggs Affair
June 7, 2011 by Post Team
Ryan Giggs Affair, Never rains, it pours, but huh? Ryan Giggs has been reached today by the claims he had an affair with a third woman – along with Imogen Thomas and his brother's wife.
The accusation came from his sister-in-law Natasha – who has been dumped by her brother Rhodri over her own eight-year affair with the star of Manchester United. The Mirror reports that Natasha last week I received a call from a mysterious woman said. "You're not the only one who has been sleeping with Ryan"
And she says that was the impetus to speak (instead of a check presumably). The newspaper quoted a "friend" saying that Natasha confessed: "My life is in ruins is not just starting to sink in. What have I done?"
We told them today as Giggs has apparently denied the allegations during a phone call Natasha hot with his brother.
And you can refresh your memory about what she said she had been doing with Giggsy in the story published yesterday.

Binge Drinking's Direct Impact on the Immune System
Even though young people may not feel the same health effects that adults do after drinking regularly, the binge drinking habits of adults between ages 18-34 can still significantly impact their well-being. A new study has shown that when young adults engage in binge drinking it can disrupt their immune system.
This can make it more difficult for their body to fight off illness or recover from injuries. College students or younger adults may not be aware of how their drinking behavior is impacting their health because they are young enough to avoid feeling the negative effects of drinking.
However, binge drinking can still be very dangerous at any age because of the way it directly impacts the functioning of the immune system.
Alcohol-related Injuries and Binge Drinking
Binge drinking is defined as drinking enough to reach or exceed a blood alcohol content of .08 by the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism. This limit, which is also the legal limit for driving is usually achieved after four drinks for women and five drinks for men consumed over a period of two hours.
According to the CDC (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention) 1 in 6 adults in the US binge drink four times a month with young adults being the most common binge drinking group. Binge drinking has been shown to be closely linked to trauma patients and increases the risk of falls, burns, gunshot wounds, car accidents and other injuries.
In addition to this, alcohol's effects on the immune system can make it more difficult for binge drinkers to recover from their injuries. Drinking heavily can delay wound healing, increase blood loss and make patients more susceptible to infection.
Studies have shown that binge drinkers are more likely to die from injuries than the average person.
Alcohol's Effects on the Immune System
Young adults who are binge drinkers are rarely aware of how their behavior is affecting their immune system and their overall health. A recent study had participants drink four or five shots of vodka, enough to meet the criteria for binge drinking, in order to monitor how their immune system reacted to the alcohol.
Blood samples from eight men and eight women showed that within 20 minutes of drinking their immune systems "revved up" and then a few hours later were much less active. The reduction in activity could be dangerous for young people who are injured while drinking.
The blood samples were taken at about the same time as an injured person might arrive at a trauma center after being intoxicated and seeking treatment for alcohol-related injuries. Those involved in the study will continue to research alcohol's effects on the immune system in other injuries such as burn patients.
They will compare the outcome of each patient with their level of intoxication and the activity of their immune system.
Although young people may believe that their binge drinking habits are harmless because they are not addicted and do not get serious hangovers, there are still physical consequences to periods of heavy drinking. With the effects that alcohol seems to have on reducing the activity of the immune system it is possible that frequent binge drinking could have a cumulative effect and damaged the immune system more over time.
Eventually, binge drinking could cause young adults to become sick more frequently and make it harder for them to heal any time they are hurt or get ill. Young people may feel immune from the effects of alcohol but it can harm them just the same as it would an older person who drinks.
Young adults should be cautious about binge drinking and take measures to keep their immune system working effectively.

MOENCHENGLADBACH, Germany: Australia stayed on course for a third successive Champions Trophy title with a 6-3 come-from-behind win over the Netherlands on Sunday as three games witnessed a 22-goal deluge.
Australia led 1-0 at half-time against the Dutch but were then 3-2 down with 16 minutes left to play.
Jamie Dwyer pounced on a loose ball in the circle early in the first half for the only score of before the break.
After Dwyer's goal, the Dutch pressed Australia high to prompt errors in the defence which was rewarded with a penalty stroke, taken by Mink van der Weerden and saved by goalkeeper Nathan Burgers on his right pad.
Rogier Hofman levelled for the Netherlands, bursting through Australia's defence early in the second half.
Australia replied within minutes with Luke Doerner's second penalty corner conversion attempt.
Back came the Dutch minutes later with captain Teun de Nooijer finishing a break through the middle of the pitch.
Van der Weerden made amends for missing the penalty stroke to flick Netherlands' first and only penalty corner chance high over Burger's head into the top of the net to give his side a 3-2 lead.
New Zealand were overrun 5-2 by Germany.
New Zealand defended the first four penalty corner chances of Germany, succumbing on the fifth as Germany worked a variation to the right post for Christoph Menke to score.
Florian Woesch capitalized on a first half clearance by goalkeeper Kyle Pontifex to tee up a drive inside the left post for Germany to lead 2-0 at the break.
Nicholas Wilson replied for New Zealand early in the second half beating Germany's defence deep on the left of the circle to drive a back stick shot past goalkeeper Max Weinholt.
Germany answered with a penalty corner goal by Martin Haner within two minutes followed by Florian Fuch's backstick field goal to put the match out of reach of New Zealand at 4-1
Simon Child gave a little hope to New Zealand, finishing Phillip Burrows' weave along the right back line to tap in near the right post in the last five minutes.
But Moritz Furste scored for Germany in the last minutes for the 5-2 final score.
England drew 3-3 with Spain, but they had been 2-0 up in the first five minutes through field goals from captain Glenn Kirkham and Iain Mackay.
Spain equalised with two penalty corner conversions to Pau Quemada and a deflection into the top of the net by Miquel Delas off Quemada's low flick.
England responded with Mackay running in to the circle to deflect Ashley Jackson's cross from the top of the circle.
In a frantic last 10 minutes, Gabriel Dabanch hit the equaliser for 3-3.
Monday is a rest day in the tournament and on Tuesday Australia play England, New Zealand meet Netherlands and Germany play Spain.

New warning system to prevent car accidents
Spanish researchers come up with a new driving aid system that keeps track of a driver's attention level and helps to prevent accidents caused by drowsiness or distractions behind the wheel.
Washington: Spanish researchers have come up with a new driving assistance system that keeps track of a driver's attention level and helps to prevent accidents caused by drowsiness or distractions behind the wheel.
"The information comes to the system through a video camera, located on the dashboard of the car, and measures eye blinking speed, its degree of openness or where the driver is looking in order to detect potentially dangerous situations," Science Daily quoted Professor José María Armingol from the Department of Systems Engineering and Automation of the Universidad Carlos III de Madrid (UC3M), as saying.
"If the system detects that the driver is getting drowsy or that he or she is distracted from the road, the driver is warned by an audible signal to alert him or her to the dangerous situation," Armingol added.
Drivers of all types of vehicles can use the Advanced Driving Alert System (ADAS).
Co-researcher, Arturo de la Escalera said: "It would be logical to start with drivers who spend a lot of time at the wheel, such as truck drivers or bus drivers and later refine the system to apply it to all types of drivers."
Marco Javier Flores, another team member added: "Among the possible improvements to the system is that is registers and evaluates other types of gestures, such as a drooping head or the number of yawns."
The conclusions of the research have appeared online in the Journal of Intelligent and Robotics System.

text: I could say the same about you, you don't REALLY believe he's dead do you? Somehow he managed to live that long with his illness, needing a LOT of medical attention, and then for some reason he just randomly dies? PLUS, he's BURIED AT SEA? Really? If they announced his death on fucking television the day of "the kill", why not bring his corpse back for further evidence?

Before I got pregnant, I was pretty friendly with my fitness. I worked out regularly, and ate a healthy diet of mostly whole foods. Let's not forget, I was careening quickly toward my wedding day – always a great incentive to watch my figure and double down on my commitment to a healthy lifestyle. And on my wedding day, I looked and felt great! Success!
Then I went on my honeymoon to Paris and Korea and came back 5 lbs heavier (Thank you, cheese. Thank you, chocolate. Thank you, 3-michelin star meals), and 3 weeks pregnant. Then came the chronic first trimester migraines, followed quickly by second trimester nerve pain, and working out quickly became the absolutely least desirable activity I could possibly think of. I was basically couch-bound for the majority of my pregnancy, and while having Gestational Diabetes helped mitigate my weight gain, I lost considerable muscle mass as a result.
In the 4 months since having Maeve, things have not improved at all. I'm now 35 lbs up from my pre-pregnancy weight. Nothing I own fits me. I feel schlumpy and weak and tired all the time, and I hate it. Working out is a huge part of my mental health upkeep as well as my physical well being, and neglecting it was starting to take a real toll on every part of my spirit. And modeling a healthy lifestyle for my daughter is incredibly important to me. I've reached critical mass of feeling like shit. So, I knew it was time for a serious change.
I found Baby Boot Camp during a search for fitness options that allow me to bring my baby along, and as luck would have it, they were offering a free class to celebrate their grand opening of a new location at Howard Hughes Promenade. I went, and over the course of the 30 minute demo, doing exercises that used to be in my comfort zone, I thought I was going to die no less than 10 times. It was a huge wake up call for me.
I talked to Melinda and Elizabeth, the owners of my local Baby Boot Camp franchise, and we thought it would be fun for me to document my progress as a Brand Ambassador, so they're generously sponsoring my attendance for the next 3 months. I'm historically useless about exercise without some form of accountability, and this way failure is not an option!
I started my program last week and had a great time! Their Howard Hughes Promenade location has stairs that Melinda integrated for a really strong leg work out, and the Helms Bakery location has a lovely cobblestone courtyard with nice grassy areas for people's kids to play on. Women brought their children ranging from 6 weeks to 4 years, and if a baby got fussy or needed to be fed, Melinda was happy to push their stroller or hold a bottle so mom could keep working out. It was so nice to be among women just like myself, rather than in a gym setting surrounded by muscle-bound weightlifters and impossibly perfect bikini babes.
"Boot Camp" is a bit of a misnomer for the experience though. There's no "tough love" whatsoever in these classes, as you might imagine in a boot camp-y setting. Rather, it's warm and encouraging. We do lots of body-weight resistance work like squats, lunges, and planks; and use resistance bands for bicep curls, obliques, triceps, and more. I love the variety of exercises we do, because as soon I start to get tired of one, we move onto another.
After only one week, I'm already noticing a change in my energy level and mood. I'm so excited to see what other progress I can achieve over the next 3 months thanks to Boot Camp in conjunction with clean eating. I'll be sharing my journey along the way. Wish me luck, and stay tuned next week for my before photos (youch) and goal setting update!
