VISITING supporters at Bootham Crescent on Saturday celebrated their team's 4-1 win with renditions of an old Morecambe and Wise favourite.
York City, meanwhile, seemingly paid their own tribute to the 1970s comedy heavyweights with a slapstick performance that even Eric and Ernie would have struggled to match.
With the score at 1-1, Michael Ingham's complete miskick gifted Morecambe winger Kevin Ellison the opportunity to fire his team back in front on 74 minutes.
More tragicomic defending then saw substitute Jack Redshaw put the final outcome beyond doubt with two late goals.
Jason Walker had earlier converted from the penalty spot to cancel out Lewis Alessandra's 23rd-minute opening goal but the Minstermen once more struggled to threaten in the final third of the pitch.
With Paddy McLaughlin having scored direct from a corner seven days earlier at Gillingham, Gary Mills' team have now failed to net in open play for three games.
Furthermore, last season's 20-goal top scorer, Matty Blair, has managed to hit the target just once in his last 19 outings, while fellow forward Alex Rodman has only made the scoresheet once since his arrival from Aldershot in November.
Crocked pair Ashley Chambers and Michael Coulson are clearly being missed, but the Minstermen's strikers should not carry the can alone for the team's recent travails in front of goal.
There is little wrong with the quality and variety of Walker's finishing – no two penalties, for example, ever seem to be taken in the same way by the former Luton forward.
But it is difficult to recall how many clear-cut chances the £60,000 striker has been presented with this term.
Too often, he is feeding off scraps and Mills' 4-3-3 formation demands better service from the full-back positions and, more specifically, the middle of the park for it to function successfully and to get the best out of Walker.
With the exception of Scott Kerr, City's midfielders did not seek or keep possession sufficiently well against the Shrimps, leaving Walker isolated or contesting hopeful balls forward.
Shifting Kerr closer to Walker and restoring Dan Parslow to an anchoring midfield role must now be a serious consideration ahead of this weekend's trip to Wycombe.
With those two operating together, City would certainly carry a more imposing presence in that area of the pitch than they did on Saturday.
Equally, David McGurk will be in strong contention for a recall at centre-back.
On-loan Blackburn teenager Jack O'Connell has obvious potential but, at 18, only an exceptional talent would possess the positional sense, concentration levels and ability to read a game that are all a given with McGurk.
The England under-19 international certainly looked a little exposed when captain Chris Smith was sent forward as an emergency striker for the last ten minutes and was chasing shadows as the visitors scored their last two goals.
Earlier, Blair had curled a promising third-minute chance well off target for the Minstermen and the same player headed wide from debutant Curtis Obeng's right-wing cross soon afterwards.
Kerr also dragged a 25-yard attempt off target before Ellison seized on a favourable ricochet to bear down on Ingham's goal.
The City 'keeper was alert to the danger, however, racing off his line to smother at the 33-year-old veteran's feet.
Ellison turned provider three minutes later, though, for the game's opening goal, outjumping Smith to nod down Stewart Drummond's right-wing cross with Alessandra sweeping a low shot past Ingham from eight yards.
The hosts struck back on 28 minutes after Chris McCready was adjudged to have wrestled Smith to the floor in the six-yard box following McLaughlin's corner.
Walker blasted the resulting spot kick straight down the middle and into the roof of Barry Roche's net.
After Blair headed over from an Obeng cross, Shrimps centre-back Nick Fenton also missed the target after rising unchallenged to meet Ryan Williams' flag kick.
In the second half, Will Haining's swerving long-range drive was kept out by Ingham while McLaughlin fired straight at Roche from 15 yards after being picked out by Blair.
On the hour mark, Ellison crashed a far-post chance in off the crossbar after Alessandra's miscued shot but his effort was ruled out for offside.
Roche's weak punch from a McLaughlin corner then saw the ball fall at Parslow's feet but his shot was cleared off the line by Ellison.
After McLaughlin drilled an edge-of-the-box effort wide, Ellison went on to regain the lead for the visitors.
Lifting the ball over O'Connell 40 yards from goal, Ellison rolled the ball into an empty net after Ingham had rushed out of his penalty area to meet him only to kick out at fresh air.
As the clock ticked down, makeshift frontman Smith saw a goalbound shot blocked, while Blair missed the target with another header from an Obeng cross.
It was left to Redshaw, though, to provide the game with a final flourish.
On 87 minutes, Chris Holroyd ran at a back-pedalling O'Connell before finding the overlapping Ellison with a clever reverse pass.
When Ingham then dived to his left to keep out Ellison's low shot, former Manchester City forward Redshaw kept his composure to cut inside substitute Jamal Fyfield and find the net.
Moments later, Redshaw tiptoed his way into the City penalty box before toe-poking high into the sidenetting but added his second goal of the afternoon in the third minute of stoppage time.
Ellison's flatly-struck pass from inside his own half somehow dissected City defenders Parslow and O'Connell, who allowed Redshaw to sprint clear on goal.
Another confident finish sealed a miserable afternoon for the hosts and, whilst a chorus of Bring Me Sunshine broke out in the away end, certain sections of the City support chose to boo their team at the final whistle.

Infectious Diseases
I was not sure on who to ask. I have Trichomonas and they gave me 4 pills of Metronidazole and said it would be gone in a week. They also said for me not to have any alchol or have sex for a week. I had sex three days after taking the medicine, so I wasn`t sure if I should go and get tested again or call them and ask for more medicine? Or will it just still go away since the medicine is still in my body?
The medicine is no longer in your body. If you think you may have been reinfected with trichomonas, you should go back to see the practitioner who tested you and gave you the metronidazole to discuss your concerns.

Gísli Hannes Guðjónsson, CBE (born 26 October 1947) is a Professor of Forensic Psychology at the Institute of Psychiatry of King's College London. He is an internationally renowned authority on suggestibility and false confessions whose expert testimony was the basis for the convictions of the Birmingham Six and Guildford Four being overturned. He created the Gudjonsson suggestibility scale to measure how susceptible someone is to coercion during an interrogation.
He was born on 26 October 1947.
In 1982, he coined the term memory distrust syndrome, to describe those who distrust their own memories and are motivated to rely on external (non-self) sources to verify the accuracy of memories.
He was appointed Commander of the Order of the British Empire (CBE) in the 2011 Queens Birthday Honours for services to clinical psychology.[1][2]

All they have is this farm raised crap from Chile, when I want real cold water North Atlantic Norwegian salmon, even if it's farm raised, as long as it's north Atlantic. But no one, even Sams Club, BJs, Fresh Market, Whole foods, no one has the real stuff. Why do they only have the Chilean salmon?

The Design In Nature
Flawless Flying Machines: Birds
Because they believe that the birds must have somehow evolved, evolutionists assert that birds are descendants of reptiles. However, the progressive model of evolution cannot explain any of the body mechanisms of birds, which have a completely different structure from land-dwelling animals. First, the primary feature of birds, i.e. wings, is a great obstacle for the theory of evolution to explain. One of the Turkish evolutionists, Engin Korur, makes the following confession in reference to the impossibility of the evolution of wings:
The question of how the flawless structure of wings might have been formed through a series of consecutive random mutations remains completely unanswered. The process in which the front leg of a reptile could transform into a flawless wing seems to be as inexplicable as ever.
Have they not looked at the birds above them, with wings outspread and folded back? Nothing holds them up but the All-Merciful. He sees all things.
Furthermore, the existence of wings is not the only prerequisite for a land creature to become a bird. Land-dwelling animals totally lack a number of mechanisms that are used by birds in flying. For example, the bones of birds are considerably lighter than those of land-dwelling animals. Their lungs are of a different structure and function as well as are their skeletal and muscular structures. Their circulatory systems are much more specialised than those of land animals. All of these mechanisms could not possibly come into existence over time through an "accumulative process". Assertions of the transformation of land-dwelling animals into birds are, therefore, only nonsensical claims.
Structure of Bird Feathers
The theory of evolution, which claims that birds are descendants of reptiles, is not able to explain the colossal differences between these two classes of beings. Birds display properties distinct from reptiles in having a skeletal structure composed of hollow, extremely lightweight bones, and a unique respiratory system and in being warm-blooded creatures. Another structure unique to birds, which places an unbridgeable gap between birds and reptiles, is the feather.
Feathers are the most important of the interesting aesthetical aspects of birds. The phrase "light as a feather" depicts the perfection in the intricate structure of a feather.
Feathers are constructed of a protein substance called keratin. Keratin is a hard and durable material that is formed by the old cells that migrate away from the nutrient and oxygen sources in the deeper layers of the skin and die in order to give way to new cells.
The design in bird feathers is so complex that the process of evolution simply cannot explain it. Scientist Alan Feduccia says feathers "have an almost magical structural complexity" which "allows a mechanical aerodynamic refinement never achieved by other means".14 Although he is an evolutionist, Feduccia also admits that "feathers are a near-perfect adaptation for flight" because they are lightweight, strong, aedodynamically shaped, and have an intricate structure of barbs and hooks.15
The design of feathers also compelled Charles Darwin ponder them. Moreover, the perfect aesthetics of the peacock's feathers had made him "sick" (his own words). In a letter he wrote to Asa Gray on April 3, 1860, he said "I remember well the time when the thought of the eye made me cold all over, but I have got over this stage of complaint..." And then continued:
Small Barbs and Hooklets
One encounters an incredible design if the feather of a bird is examined under the microscope. As we all know, there is a shaft that runs up the centre of the feather. Hundreds of small barbs grow on either side of this shaft. Barbs of varying softness and size give the bird its aerodynamic nature. Furthermore, each barb has thousands of even smaller strands attached to them called barbules, which cannot be observed with the naked eye. These barbules are locked together with hooklike hamuli. The barbules hold on to one another like a zip with the help of these hooklets. For example, just one crane feather has about 650 barbs on each side of the shaft. About 600 barbules branch off each of the barbs. Each one of these barbules are locked together with 390 hooklets. The hooks latch together as do the teeth on both sides of a zip. These barbules interlock so tightly that even smoke blown at the feather cannot penetrate through it. If the hooklets come apart for any reason, the bird can easily restore the feathers to their original form by either shaking itself or by straightening its feathers out with its beak.
In order to survive, birds have to keep their feathers clean, well-groomed and always ready for flight. They use an oil-gland located at the base of their tails for the maintenance of their feathers. They clean and polish their feathers by means of this oil, which also provides water proofing when they are swimming, diving or walking and flying in rain.
Types of Feather
Feathers take on different functions depending on where on the body they are located. The feathers on a bird's body have different properties from those on the wings or tail. The full-feathered tail functions to steer and brake. On the other hand, wing feathers have a distinct structure that enables the surface area to expand during beating in order to increase forces of up-lift. When the wing is flapped downward, the feathers come closer together, preventing the through passage of air. When the wing is in an upward movement the feathers open up, to give way to the passage of air.18 Birds shed their feathers during certain periods in order to maintain their abilities to fly. Worn or damaged large feathers are renewed immediately.
Features of The Flying Machines
A close examination of birds reveals that they are designed specifically for flying. The body has been created with air-sacs and hollow bones in order to reduce body mass and overall weight. The fluid nature of their wastes ensures that excess water in the body is disposed of. Feathers are extremely light structures in comparison to their volume.
Let us examine these special structures of birds one by one:
1- The Skeleton
The strength of a bird's skeleton is more than adequate even though the bones are hollow. For example, a hawfinch 7 inches long (18 cm) exerts about 151 lbs. (68.5 kg) pressure in order to crack open an olive seed. Better "organised" than land animals, the shoulder, hip and chest bones of birds are fused together. This design improves the strength of the bird's structure. Another feature of the skeleton of birds, as mentioned previously, is that it is lighter than in all other land-dwelling animals. For instance, the skeleton of the dove weighs only about 4.4% of its total body weight. The bones of the frigate bird weigh 118 gr, which is less than the total weight of its feathers.
2- Respiratory System
The Special Lungs of Birds
Birds have a very different anatomy from their alleged ancestors, the reptiles. Bird lungs operate in a completely different fashion from those of land animals. Land animals inhale and exhale air through the same windpipe. In birds, however, the air enters and exits through opposite ends. A special "design" such as this has been created to provide for the high volumes of air needed during flight. Evolution of such a structure from that of reptiles is not possible.
The respiratory system of land animals and birds operate on completely different principles, primarily because birds need oxygen in much greater quantities than do land animals. For example, a certain bird could require up to twenty times the amount of oxygen necessary for humans. Therefore, the lungs of land animals cannot provide oxygen in the quantities required by birds. This is why the lungs of birds are created upon a much different design.
In land animals, air flow is bidirectional: air travels through a network of channels, and stops at the small air sacs. Oxygen-carbon dioxide exchange takes place here. Used air follows a reverse course in leaving the lung and is discharged through the windpipe.
On contrary, in birds, air flow is unidirectional. New air comes in one end, and the used air goes out the other end. This provides an uninterrupted supply of oxygen for birds, which satisfies their need for high levels of energy. Michael Denton, an Australian biochemist and a well-known critic of Darwinism, explains the avian lung in this way:
In the case of birds, the major bronchi break down into tiny tubes which permeate the lung tissue. These so-called parabronchi eventually join up together again, forming a true circulatory system so that air flows in one direction through the lungs…. Although air sacs occur in certain reptilian groups, the structure of the lung in birds and the overall functioning of the respiratory system is quite unique. No lung in any other vertebrate species is known which in any way approaches the avian system. Moreover, it is identical in all essential details in birds…19
In his book Evolution: A Theory in Crisis, Michael Denton also points out to the impossibility of formation of such a perfect system through progressive evolution:
Just how such an utterly different respiratory system could have evolved gradually from the standard vertebrate design is fantastically difficult to envisage, especially bearing in mind that the maintenance of respiratory function is absolutely vital to the life of an organism to the extent that the slightest malfunction leads to death within minutes. Just as the feather cannot function as an organ of flight until the hooks and barbules are coadapted to fit together perfectly, so the avian lung cannot function as an organ of respiration until the parabronchi system which permeates it and the air sac system which guarantees the parabronchi their air supply are both highly developed and able to function together in a perfectly integrated manner.20
In short, the transition from terrestrial lung to avian lung is impossible due to the fact that the lung that would be in a transitional developmental stage would have no functionality. No creature without lungs can live for even a few minutes. Therefore, the creature simply would not have millions of years to wait for random mutations to save its life.
The unique structure of the avian lung demonstrates the presence of a perfect design that supplies the high levels of oxygen required for flight. It only takes a little bit of a common sense to see that the unparalleled anatomy of birds is not an arbitrary result of unconscious mutations. It is clear that the lungs of a bird are another of the countless evidences that all creatures have been created by Allah.
3-The System of Balance
Allah has created birds without flaw just as He has the rest of the creation. This fact is manifest in every detail. The bodies of birds have been created to a special design that removes any possible imbalance in flight. The bird's head has been deliberately created light in weight so that the animal does not lean forward during flight: on average, a bird's head weight is about 1% of its body weight.
The aerodynamic structure of the feathers is another property of the system of balance in birds. The feathers, especially in the wing and tail, provide a very effective system of balance for the bird.
These features ensure that a falcon maintains absolute balance while diving for its prey at a speed of 240 mph (384 km/h).
4- The Power and Energy Problem
Every process in the form of a sequence of events, i.e. in biology, chemistry or physics, conforms to the "Principle of the Conservation of Energy". In short, one can summarise this as "it takes a certain amount of energy to get a certain work done".
A significant example of this conservation can be observed in flight of birds. Migrating birds have to store enough energy to take them through their trip. On the other hand, another necessity in flight is being as light as possible. No matter what the results, extra weight has to be done away with. In the meantime, the fuel has also to be as efficient as possible. In other words, while the weight of fuel has to be at a minimum, the energy output from it has to be at a maximum. All of these problems have been solved for birds.
The first step is to determine the optimum speed for flight. If the bird is to fly very slowly, then a lot of energy has to be spent to remain aloft in the air. If the bird is to fly very fast, then fuel will be spent in overcoming air resistance. It is therefore obvious that an ideal speed has to be maintained in order to spend the least amount of fuel. Depending on the aerodynamic structure of the skeleton and wings, a different speed is ideal for each kind of bird.
Let us examine this energy problem as it relates to the Pacific golden plover (Pluvialis dominica fulva): this bird migrates from Alaska to Hawaii to spend its winters there. There are no islands on its route. Therefore, it has no possibility for rest. The flight is 2500 miles (4000 km) from start to finish and this roughly means 250,000 wing beats without break. The trip takes more than 88 hours.
The bird weighs 7 ounces (200g) at the start of the journey, 2,5 ounces (70g) of which is fat to be used as fuel. However, scientists, after calculating the amount of energy the bird needs for an hour of flight, determined that the bird needed 3 ounces (82g) of fuel for this flight. That is, there is a shortage of 0.4 ounce (12g) of fuel and the bird would have to run out of energy hundreds of miles before reaching Hawaii.
In spite of these calculations, the golden rain birds unfailingly reach Hawaii every year. What could the secret of these creatures be?
This extraordinary situation brings the following questions to mind:
It is impossible for birds to reach this knowledge, to make these calculations, or to make group flights according to these calculations. This is an indication that the birds are "inspired" and directed by a superior power. Likewise Qur'an draws attention to "birds lined up in flight" and informs us about a consciousness that is inspired in these creatures by Allah:
Do you not see that everyone in the heavens and earth glorifies Allah, as do the birds with their outspread wings? Each one knows its prayer and glorification. Allah knows what they do. (Surat an-Nur: 41)
Have they not looked at the birds above them, with wings outspread and folded back? Nothing holds them up but the All-Merciful. He sees all things. (Surat al-Mulk: 19)
5. Digestion System
Birds prefer to travel in flocks on long trips. The "V" formation of the flock enables each individual bird to save about 23% energy.
Flight requires a great deal of power. For this reason birds have the largest muscle-tissue/body-mass ratio of all creatures. Their metabolism is also in tune with high levels of muscle power. On average, a creature's metabolism doubles as the body temperature increases by 500F (100C). The sparrow's 1080F (420C) body temperature and a fieldfare's 109.40F (43.50C)body temperature indicate how quickly their metabolism functions. Such a high body temperature, which would kill a land creature, is vitally important for a bird's survival by increasing energy consumption and, therefore, power.
The sparrow's heart beats 460 times per minute. Its body temperature is 1080F (420C). Such a high body temperature, which would mean certain death for a land creature, is vitally important for a bird's survival. The high level of energy birds require for flight is generated by this rapid metabolism.
Due to their need for a lot of energy, birds also have a body that digests the food they eat in an optimum fashion. Birds' digestive systems enable them to make the best use of the food they eat. For example, a baby stork puts on 2.2 lbs (1 kg) body mass for every 6.6 lbs (3 kg) food. In land animals with similar food choices, this ratio is about 2.2 lbs (1 kg) to 22 lbs. (10 kg). The circulatory system of birds has also been created in harmony with their high energy requirements. While a human's heart beats 78 times a minute, this rate is 460 for a sparrow and 615 for a humming bird. Similarly, blood circulation in birds is very fast. The oxygen that supplies all of these fast working systems is provided by special avian lungs.
A Swallow.
Birds also use their energy very efficiently. They demonstrate significantly higher efficiency in energy consumption than do land animals. For instance, a migrating swallow burns four kilocalories per mile (2.5 per kilometre) wher
eas a small land animal would burn 41 kilocalories.
Mutation cannot explain the differences between birds and land animals. Even if we assume one of these features to occur through random mutation, which is not a possibility, a single feature by itself does not make any sense. The formation of a high energy-producing metabolism has no meaning without specialised avian lungs. Moreover, this would cause the animal to choke from insufficient oxygen intake. If the respiratory system were to mutate before the other systems then the creature would inhale more oxygen than it needs, and would be harmed just the same. Another impossibility relates to the skeletal structure: even if the bird somehow obtained the avian lungs and metabolic adaptations it still could not fly. No matter how powerful, no land creature can take off from the ground due to its heavy and relatively segmented skeletal structure. The formation of wings also requires a distinct and flawless "design".
All of these facts take us to one result: it is simply impossible to explain the origin of birds through accidental growth or a theory of evolution. Thousands of different species of birds have been created with all their current physical features in "a moment". In other words, Allah has created them individually.
Perfect Flight Techniques
From albatrosses to vultures, all birds have been created equipped with flying techniques that make use of winds.
Since flying consumes a lot of energy, birds have been created with powerful breast muscles, large hearts and light skeletons. The evidence of superior creation in birds does not end with their bodies. Many birds have been inspired to use methods that decrease the energy required.
The kestrel is a wild bird that is well-known in Europe, Asia and Africa. It has a special ability: it can maintain its head in a perfectly still position in the air by facing the wind. Though its body may sway in the wind, its head remains motionless, which increases the excellence of its vision in spite of all the motion. A gyroscope, which is used to stabilise the weaponry of battleships at sea, works very similarly. This is why scientists usually label the bird's head "a gyro-stabilised head".22
Timing Techniques
Soaring in The Wind
Birds further reduce the energy consumed by utilising winds. They soar by increasing airflow on their wings and they can remain "suspended" in sufficiently powerful air currents. Up-drafts are an added advantage to them.
Making use of air currents in order to save energy in flight is called "soaring". The kestrel is one of the birds with this capability. The ability to soar is a sign of birds' superiority in the air.
Energy From Air Currents
Birds use air streams in different ways: A kestrel gliding down a hillside or a seagull diving along coastal cliffs make use of airstreams, and this is called "slope soaring".
When a strong wind passes over a hilltop, it forms waves of motionless air. Birds can soar on these waves as well. The gannet and many other seabirds make use of these motionless waves created by islands. Sometimes they use the currents generated by smaller obstacles such as ships, over which seagulls soar.
Fronts generally create the currents providing uplift for birds.
Fronts are interfaces between air masses of different temperatures or densities. The soaring of birds on these interfaces is referred to as "gust gliding". These fronts, which are especially formed at coasts by air currents coming from the sea, have been discovered by means of radar, through the observation of sea birds in flocks gliding in them. Two other kinds of soaring are known as thermal soaring and dynamic soaring.
Thermal soaring is a phenomenon observed especially in warm inland areas of the globe. As the sun heats the ground, the ground in turn heats the air above it. As the air gets warmer, it gets lighter and starts to rise. This event can also be observed in dust storms or other wind whirls.
The Soaring Technique of Vultures
Vultures utilise a special method in order to scan the earth below from an appropriate height riding rising columns of warm air, called the thermals. They can continuously make use of different thermals to sustain their soaring over very large areas for very long times.
At dawn, airwaves start rising. First, smaller vultures take off, riding weaker currents. As currents become stronger, larger birds take off as well. Vultures almost float upward in these ascending currents. The fastest rising air is located in the middle of the current. They fly in tight circles in order to balance uplift with gravitational forces. When they want to ascend, they draw closer to the centre of the currents.
Other hunting birds use thermals as well. Storks make use of these warm air currents, especially when migrating. The white stork lives in central Europe and migrates to Africa for winters on a journey of about 4350 miles (7000 kilometres). If they were to fly solely by flapping their wings, they would have to rest at least four times. Instead, the white storks complete their flights in three weeks by utilising warm air currents for up to 6-7 hours a day, which translates into big energy savings.
A Predatory Vulture Reaches The Carcass Before The Hyena.
a. Lappet-Faced Vulture
Vultures can reach their food before their rivals, the hyenas, due to their flight techniques. In the figure above, the griffon vulture feeding on a carcass catches the attention of a lappet-faced vulture and a hyena. However, even the hyena's highest speed of 25 mph (40 km/h) is not enough to reach the carcass in time. The hyena can reach a carcass 2.2 miles away (3.5 kilometres) in 4.25 minutes whereas the lappet-faced vulture reaches the carcass in three minutes at a speed of 44 mph (70 km/h).
Since the waters warm up much later than the land, warm air currents are not formed over the seas, which is why birds that migrate over long distances do not choose to travel over water. Storks and other wild birds migrating from Europe to Africa choose to travel either over the Balkans and the Bosphorus, or over the Iberian Peninsula over the Gibraltar.
1.The albatross with a wingspan of 10 feet (3 metres) is one of the world's largest birds. Such a large body requires a lot of energy for flight. However, the albatross can fly long distances without flapping its wings by using the dynamic soaring method. This technique saves this creature tremendous amounts of energy.
2. The skimmer lacks oil protecting its feathers from water. Therefore, it does not dive for its prey. Its lower bill is longer and sensitive to touch. Its wings are shaped such that it can fly very close to the surface of the water for a long time without flapping its wings. It dips its lower bill in the water and flies while using this technique. It captures any prey that its lowered bill hits.
3.Wild geese climb up to 5 miles (8 kilometres). However, at about 3.1 miles (5 kilometres), the atmosphere is 65% less dense than at sea level. A bird flying at this height has to flap its wings much faster, which would require much more oxygen. In sharp contrast to mammals, the lungs of these creatures have been created to make best use of the sparse oxygen supply at these altitudes.
The albatross, gannets, seagulls and other sea birds, on the other hand, use the air currents that are created by high waves. These birds take advantage of the uplift of air directed upwards on the tips of waves. While soaring on the air currents, the albatross frequently turns and heads into the wind and swiftly rises higher. After ascending 30-45 feet (10-15 metres) into the air, it changes direction again and continues soaring. The bird gains energy from changes in wind directions. The air currents lose speed when they hit the surface of the sea. This is why the albatross encounters stronger currents at higher altitudes. After attaining adequate speed, it returns to gliding close to the surface of the sea. Many other birds such as the shearwater use similar techniques while soaring on the sea.
Design in Bird Eggs
The miraculous creation of birds does not end with wings, feathers or their migration skills. Another extraordinary design feature of these creatures is in their eggs.
However ordinary it may seem to us, the egg of a chicken has about fifteen thousand pores resembling dimples on a golf ball. The spongy structure of smaller eggs can only be observed under the microscope. These spongy structures give eggs added flexibility and increase their resistance to impact.
An egg is a miracle of packaging. It supplies all the nutrients and water that the developing foetus needs. The yolk of the egg stores protein, fats, vitamins and minerals, and the white works as a reservoir of fluid.
The developing chick needs to inhale oxygen and exhale carbon dioxide. It also requires a source of heat, calcium for its bone development, protection of its fluids, protection against bacteria and physical impact. The eggshell provides all of these for the chick, which breathes through a membranous sac that develops in the embryo. Blood vessels in this sac bring oxygen to the embryo and take carbon dioxide away.
Eggshells are amazingly thin and sturdy, and so transmit the body heat of the brooding parent.
A Necessary Loss
During incubation, the egg loses 16% of its water content in the form of evaporation. Scientists long believed this to be harmful and due to the porous structure of the eggshell. However, the most recent research shows this loss to be necessary for the chick to emerge from the egg. The chick needs oxygen and space to be able to move its head just enough to crack the shell while hatching. The evaporation of water creates the room and oxygen required.
Furthermore, water loss ratio is adjusted to vary between 15 to 20% for ideal conditions depending on the type of eggshell. For instance, water loss in the eggs of loons is a few times higher than in others that incubate under dryer conditions.
The Design of an Egg For Durability
The durability of an eggshell is as crucial as its functioning in terms of air, water and heat. It has to withstand external impact as well as the weight of the incubating parent.
A closer examination reveals that eggs are designed for sufficient durability. Allah created smaller and larger eggs different from one another. Eggs of larger birds are usually harder and less flexible whereas eggs of smaller birds are softer and more elastic.
Chicken eggs are rigid and rough, but they do not break when falling over one another. The rigid shell also protects them from attack. If smaller eggs were to be as rigid and rough as the chicken egg, they would have broken much easier. Studies show smaller eggs are not rigid, but sturdy and flexible, which prevents them from breaking under impact.
The flexibility in the structure of an egg not only serves to protect the chick but also determines the way that the chick hatches it. A chick that will come out of a rigid and rough shell only needs to open a couple of holes at the blunt end of the egg before pushing its head and legs out. The chick meets the world by lifting the hat-shaped end cover that is formed by the cracks connecting these holes.25

HOUSTON - Deputies said a man who led them on a high-speed chase had two small children in the back seat.
The chase started just before 12 p.m. Friday at the intersection of Ella Boulevard and F.M. 1960 when deputies with the Harris County Sheriff's Office said they noticed the children not properly secured in car seats.
Deputies said they pulled the female driver over, and she and a male passenger got out of the car. At some point, deputies said the man jumped back into the car and took off, leaving the woman behind.
The chase ended in a field about a mile away, officials said.
"It's pretty much got stuck in the mud. There's a ditch down there and I think he saw it and stopped," said Rod Rice, who witnessed the event. "All I saw was his head pop up and then all the sheriff's right on top of him."
The man and the two young children were taken from the scene by ambulance. Officials have not said what type of injuries they suffered.
The driver's name hasn't been released.

Find Your Super Power!
Everyone is good at something! Here's how to unleash your inner Wonder Woman—cape optional.
-Amanda Schupak, YouBeauty.com
My coworker is a freak. This coworker, let's call her Bourtney, has an uncanny memory for '80s hair metal song titles, the Flowers in the Attic series (even the ones post-V.C. Andrews' passing) and obscure sub-plotlines from Full House. I'm telling you, you've never seen anything quite like it.
Reeling in in her awe-inspiring ability to recall subtle nuances in D.J. Tanner's pantsuit-laden wardrobe, I got to thinking about real life super prowess. Less X-Men, more Molly Ringwald in The Breakfast Club applying lipstick with no hands. Those special talents—a beautiful singing voice or a goofy party trick—that help make you who you are, or shed light on that sliver of your personality that may not get much exposure. I wondered if everyone's got a super power and how to harness those skills for good—or just for fun.
Read Five Things You Never Thought to Negotiate
A Value-Added Proposition
Being great at math, having a scary-good memory or running a four-minute mile are all useful skills in their own rights, but they're also worth more than face value. "Having something that sets you apart can really benefit your self-concept," says YouBeauty Psychology Advisor Art Markman, Ph.D. "It helps to define who you are and may also define you in other people's minds."
Many struggle at one time or another with who they are, says Markman, and taking some time to think about the things you can do help you get a better grasp on your own potential.
And that, in turn, plays an important part in fostering self-esteem.
In her book Self-Theories: Their Role in Motivation, Personality and Development, Stanford University psychologist Carol Dweck, Ph.D., writes that self-esteem is "a positive way of experiencing yourself when you are fully engaged and are using your abilities to the utmost in pursuit of something you value."
That positive perception can spill into other parts of your life. If you've got one thing you know you can succeed at, then you know you're capable of succeeding. So it follows that now you have the confidence to go out into the world and…succeed.
Plus, Markman adds, it always feels good to look around a room and think, "no matter what, I'm better at [insert super power here] than these people."

What is Relogy?
Relogy, pronounced, rel-oh-jee, is a new skincare line that is formulated to clear up acne in two steps. Relogy is botanically-based, and the three products are 95-100% derived from natural ingredients; and they are benzoyl peroxide free. Relogy is also 100% vegan, which means that there are no animal by-products, and it is cruelty free. There is absolutely no animal testing, as certified by PETA.
Although I have not yet tested it, I wanted to bring this new skincare line to my readers attention as Relogy states that.. "It's the easiest, fastest, most effective acne care treatment you can find. If you don't agree, we'll give you your money back!"
How is Relogy different from other acne products on the market?
Relogy has products that are quick and easy to apply, as they know that adults are busy and want to spend as little time as they can treating their acne!
Relogy has a Dual Action Treatment Foam is different from other acne care products because it can be used just like a topical acne treatment, that does not require rinsing, or it can be used as a treatment cleanser, with rinsing.
Relogy also has active ingredients that are different than other acne care products. They are botanically based ingredients and have no harsh chemicals.
Relogy has a 100% Natural Skin Balancing Lotion with Coconut Milk, that is to prevent side effects, and keep your skin well hydrated and nourished.
Relogy also has a product for acne flare-ups, called the Targeted Spot Treatment, which has Seaweed Extract. This is a rollerball applicator and is very cooling.
The goal is to have your blemishes fade quickly and completely, and to do so as quickly as possible.
More information about Relogy:

CANONSBURG – Josh Wise had a forgettable beginning to Sunday night's EQT Energy Classic championship game, scoring just two points during the opening half.
Bet this finish won't soon be forgotten.
Wise hit a 3-pointer from the right wing with eight-tenths of a second left on the clock to give the Washington High School boys basketball team a 46-43 victory over Canon-McMillan and help the Prexies win the tournament title on the Big Macs' home floor.
"That shows a lot about our coach and my teammates having faith in me," Wise said. "I didn't play my best game at all, but they stuck with me. That means a lot."
The game-winning play started after Prexies coach Mark Gaither allowed the clock to run down to 15 seconds before calling a timeout.
Jaylin Kelly began the sequence by passing to Darius Spinks, who waited for Wise to circle along the baseline from left to right and pop open, a play that was nearly identical to one the Prexies ran earlier.
"We knew going in that Josh was getting the last shot," Gaither said. "We ran a play we ran a lot. We just set it up off a double-staggered screen instead. We wanted him to take the last shot and either head into overtime or win the game."
Wise, of course, won the game. And when he did, he left his right hand hanging and nodded his head a couple times, Wash High's fans screaming just a few steps to his right.
"I saw the ball hit nothing but net, and my heart dropped," said Wise, who was named the tournament's Most Valuable Player after scoring 62 points in three games – all wins – including 16 against Canon-McMillan (2-1).
Big Macs coach Rick Bell said in hindsight he should have put 6-2 guard Jake Cadez on Wise at the end, but it was really the case of a good player making a spectacular shot.
"The thing that makes him so tough is that he can shoot it, he can create off the dribble, he's 6-2, and he can elevate," Bell said of Wise. "It's tough to defend him."
Canon-McMillan guard Brett Haney, who earned MVP honors last year, finished with a game-high 20 points and scored on a floater with 2:17 left to give Canon-Mac a 43-38 lead before the Prexies scored the final eight points of the game.
Billy Edwards led Wash High (3-0) with 18 points, and forward Jordan Drew pulled down nine rebounds.
The first quarter featured four lead changes but only 13 points, as the Big Macs built a 7-6 edge.
Edwards scored six points in the second quarter, and that enabled the Prexies to take a 16-13 lead into the locker room at halftime.
Wash High stretched its lead to five early in the third quarter after a layup from Spinks, but Haney made a 3-pointer and Sam Bohn (six points) finished with a sweet finger-roll to tie the score at 20.
Wise got his game going in the third, scoring seven points, but neither team could separate by more than a couple before the Big Macs opened the fourth quarter by scoring seven consecutive points to take a 37-32 lead following a layup from Cadez (seven points).
The run also featured a three-point play from Cadez, who was fouled on a jumper from the left wing, and a pair of free throws from Haney.
Canon-McMillan led by five on two more occasions, but that 8-0 run and Wise's heroics made the ending a whole lot more palatable for the Prexies' leading scorer.
"He could've missed 50 shots in a row, and he still has the confidence that he's going to hit the next one," Gaither said. "He's a special player."

Mosaic Connection will once again be joining the celebration of arts at Wooster Jam. April 20 and 21, the College of Wooster's Entrepreneurial Department will be hosting the second annual Wooster Jam, which is expected to be more festive and involve more arts, music, dance, literary, digital, and video than any event in Wayne County. Held at the Wayne County Fairgrounds, imagine the uniqueness of art exhibited where 4H and agriculture is usually on display, where a solo cellist may be playing where sheep are normally auctioned, or where new age video is shown off the sides of 50 year old barn buildings. Along with the many bands and other entertainment that are Wooster Jam, this year they have added a collegiate a cappella competition which will include teams from at least 6 area colleges including Ohio State, Kent, and Oberlin. There will be many food venders, kid's activities, and lots of excitement.
As Mosaic's contribution to this event, will be hosting "Labyrinth", an interactive installation for spiritual journeys. Labyrinth is for anyone who wants a break from surfing the surface of culture to contemplate the deeper things of life. It reshapes a 12th century ritual for the 21st century. Combining a mixture of ritual and visuals, of contemplative words and contemporary ambient music, of symbols and media, it's a maze-like path which takes you on a symbolic journey, creating space to unwind and think " in particular about our relationships with ourselves, one another, our planet and God. It's a unique experience not to be missed.
You will find Mosaic and Labyrinth in Buss Hall during the event and along with Labyrinth we will also have a wonderful display of art by local artists, such as Dennis Lipp, Eric Johns, Edna Wade, Mahlon Schmucker, and Melody Kirby, as well as our own Mosaic Kids works, and showcasing the Wooster Christian School's Art Department. Harpist, Becky Cox, will be providing music in Buss Hall periodically throughout the event.
Please make plans to visit Wooster Jam and look for Mosaic in Buss Hall. For more information about Mosaic Connection, visit www.MosaicConnection.org

I love the "5 Question" feature on this blog. I think it's a really great way to get to know someone a little better without dragging on a long interview. Today, I want to introduce you to an amazing model, Monique Robinson. I first met Monique at Full Figured Fashion Week 2011. She immediately stood out to me and rocked that finale runway show! I had to go over and introduce myself after. She is one of my favorite models and of course I love her name…duh! So, If you don't know who she is…well get to know her, because I know you'll be seeing a lot more of her!
Name: Monique Robinson
Hometown: Pompano Beach, Florida
Current City: Brooklyn, New York
Modeling Agency: Muse Model Management
Web site or Blog address: www.moniquerobinson.com
1. What does being a model mean to you?
WOW, being a model for me means following your dreams. My life was going in a completely different direction when I started modeling. So, for me it means you don't have to have everything planned out. That there are countless possibilities out there and it's up to you do decide to reach for them and achieve them and work at making your dreams realities. Modeling for me means being to best person I can because I'm doing something that my heart says is right.
2. What or whom inspires you the most?
My mom and family inspire me the most. I love my mother's drive. She is always willing to step up and show that she's human. It doesn't matter what's going on in my life she always has the right words. There's not one day of my life that I don't look at who she is as a person and try to apply that to what I am doing no matter what it is because she always gives 110%. And my family is filled with so many different characters; a lot of who I am comes from watching them and striving to be as great as they are.
3. Where are your favorite places to shop?
Hmm, it changes so much. I think I will forever be addicted to asos.com. But, as of right now I love H&M I like how simple their pieces are and they're everywhere in New York, the closes one to me in Florida was 1 ½ hours away.
4. What is your fashion "weakness?"
My fashion weaknesses are accessories, accessories, and accessories. As soon as I walk into a store that's the first section I'm going to. And not just jewelry, this includes blazers and scarf's, it's funny because I have so many pieces but I wear the same ones over and over.
5. What advice would you give to any new or aspiring models?
My top advice would be to research, research, and research. There's so much that goes into modeling. They're so many different types of modeling from print, to editorial, to catalog and you have to know what the difference is. You have to decide if you want to be with an agency or freelance. You have to watch other models and see what they are doing and learn from them. You have to learn what to wear, what to say, and how to pose, and you get all of that form research.
I would also say take as many pictures as possible until you feel comfortable in front of a camera and also in front of a mirror. It can be you taking pictures of yourself to see what your face is doing or getting a friend to take pictures of you to practice posing. The more practicing in front of the camera and a mirror, the easier it is to deliver when it's time.

As many as 1400 employees have now been retrenched in the wake of the Forge Group's collapse.
"There is no money to pay employees, no work to perform," KordaMentha restructuring's Mark Mentha said in a statement.
Ferrier Hodgson has been appointed the voluntary administrator with KordaMentha Restructuring the receiver manager.
Accumulated debts of the collapsed group are estimated at around $500 million, with creditors expected to face a shortfall.
The largest single creditor is believed to be the ANZ Banking Group, with an estimated $200 million exposure. The bank replaced National Australia Bank as Forge's main lender in mid-2013.
On Wednesday, some 1300 Forge employees who were working on power stations and mining projects in Western Australia and Queensland, were retrenched after the principals of the construction jobs exercised contractual rights they claimed on the projects.
On Thursday, the figure exceeded 1400, since a number of employees who were in transit were not included in the original retrenchment figure. Their retrenchment followed Forge's financiers withdrawing support for the company earlier this week, with KordaMentha Restructuring appointed receiver and manager, after Forge appointed Ferrier Hodgson as the voluntary administrators.
Forge is believed to remain the operator for two power station projects - the Horizon Power project in Port Headland, Western Australia and at Diamantina, in Western Queensland, a spokesman for the receiver manager said.
Between them, these two projects have an estimated workforce of around 400, with the bulk believed to be located in Western Australia.
However, it is understood Forge has withdrawn from the Diamantina project, which is estimated to be 85 per cent completed, with some of the initial equipment now in the middle of commissioning trials.
''There is likely to be a shortfall for the lenders, at the end of the sale process,'' a source close to the situation told Fairfax Media.
According to the same source, foreign assets will be sold in an orderly fashion, which will realise some funds.
It is still unclear how it moved from a profitable company to the mess it became
''It is still unclear how it moved from a profitable company to the mess it became," the source said.
Along with the retrenchments, offshore units in Africa, Asia and the US would now be put up for sale.
Mr Mentha said he hoped some of the retrenched employees would be employeed by new contractors to complete affected projects.
"We are working with the receiver, Ferrier Hodgson, to do whatever we can for employees at this dreadful time for them and their families," Mr Mentha said.
Additionally, affected employees would be transported back to their home towns and assisted in applying for their entitlements, he said.

The Crap We Missed – Tuesday 8.26.14
Welcome to Tuesday's The Crap We Missed featuring JLo doubling down on butt, because if you haven't heard butts are the new tits. Except for Kim Kardashian. We still find her ass grotesque in every possible way and wish it would hurry up and eat her entire family as foretold in Revelations. We've also got Miley Cyrus instagramming screenshots from her dad's gay-for-pay days and Paula Patton bouncing back strong from her marriage's failure by going commando in a see-through dress in public.
"Daddy, look! Mommy's boobies are on the TV!"
"That's not your fault son. Sometimes mommies and daddies have to be apart for a while."
"No, I know, she said she was going to show them to everyone because of your dirty thingie."
