You exercise your body to stay physically in shape, so why shouldn't you exercise your brain to stay mentally fit? With these daily exercises you will learn how to flex your mind, improve your creativity and boost your memory. As with any exercise, repetition is necessary for you to see improvement, so pick your favorite exercises from our daily suggestions and repeat them as desired. Try to do some mentalrobics every single day!
Several recent studies have shown that mental and physical exercise throughout one's lifetime may significantly reduce the effects of Alzheimer's.
Mental exercises such as crossword puzzles, brain teasers, chess, or card games help keep the mind working in top shape. This helps build what is called a "cognitive reserve." Formal education also helps build a person's cognitive reserve. In fact, each year of education reduces a person's chances of getting Alzheimer's by an average of 17%. Scientists believe this is because people with a large cognitive reserve are better able to adapt as neurons are killed by the disease. The more neural connections you have, the longer it takes for the disease to make a significant impact.
It's important to note that mental exercise cannot help significantly once Alzheimer's has already set in. A person must have a lifetime commitment to learning in order to build up his or her cognitive reserve. It is probably not possible to completely prevent the disease in genetically susceptible people, but it is possible to delay the onset so that it will not occur in the person's lifetime.

NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- U.S. stock futures were pointing to a flat start for Wall Street on Friday after equities dipped during the previous trading session after the latest Federal Reserve minutes revealed central bankers were divided over the length of their bond-buying program. European shares were trading mostly lower. Asian stocks finished Friday's session mostly lower. Japanese stocks, however, closed 2.8% higher as they traded for the first time in 2013.
The economic calendar in the U.S. Friday includes the nonfarm payrolls report for December at 8:30 a.m. EST. Economists polled by Reuters expects nonfarm payrolls to rise 150,000 in the month, following a 146,000 increase in November. The unemployment rate is expected to remain unchanged in December at 7.7%.
U.S. stocks on Thursday fell following a downtrodden tone from the latest minutes of the Federal Open Market Committee, the policy-making wing of the Fed. The surprise news outweighed stronger-than-expected employment data for December and a number of upbeat monthly retail-sales reports. The Dow Jones Industrial Average declined 21 points, or 0.2%, to 13,391.
Google ( GOOG) and the Federal Trade Commission announced Thursday a deal to end the federal agency's nearly two-year old antitrust probe. The search engine leader has agreed to make voluntary changes to its current Internet search practices.
Mosaic ( MOS), the phosphate and potash global agriculture supplier, is expected by analysts Friday to post fiscal second-quarter earnings of 98 cents a share on revenue of $2.54 billion, down almost 16% from a year earlier.
Drugmaker Eli Lilly ( LLY) is expected Friday to announce its financial guidance for 2013.
Coinstar ( CSTR) announced Thursday the unexpected retirement of CEO Paul Davis.
Progress Software ( PRGS) posted fourth-quarter earnings on Thursday of $36 million, or 57 cents a share, on revenue of $91.3 million, compared with year-earlier profit of $12.2 million, or 19 cents a share, on revenue of $93.5 million. Progress Software said it expects first-quarter revenue to be flat with the year-earlier quarter.
Sonic ( SONC) said late Thursday that fiscal first-quarter profit rose 12% from a year earlier to $6.1 million, or 11 cents a share, on revenue of $126 million. The results were roughly in line with Wall Street estimates.

I am using a bioinformatics pipeline composed of python scripts
available at http://shiulab.plantbiology.msu.edu/wik ... Pseudogene
Each set of input files is composed of a DNA file, protein file and a BLAST file from comparing these two (even if you dont follow what I am saying here about the type of files, it does not matter much I think)
Using a series of Python scripts, these input files are sequentially manipulated to get the final output. Some sets of input files work just fine, so I know the scripts in the pipeline work OK.
However, for some input files, the script BlastUtility.py gives an error. I need your help in figuring out
1. what in the input file(s) is/are causing this error
2. how to fix this (in a biologically acceptable manner)
3. to do steps 1 and 2 above and make sure that the pipeline runs OK and I obtain the final result
Could someone help me? I dont think this should take more than 30 minutes for an experienced programmer. The challenge here (as I've been told) is that the script was written by a biologist, and that it shows! :p
I was referred to this page from my original posting at http://python-forum.org/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=859&e=0 - that link will give you info on this specific script and the type of error...

Metro have tweeted that trains will resume between Caulfield and Moorabbin in time for the evening peak.
"Train services are now resuming Caulfield - Moorabbin after an earlier incident," tweeted Metro at 4.01pm. "Some Frankston line trains may be delayed up to 15 minutes."
However, the resumption of service may not be going smoothly.
"This is news to our driver stuck at Malvern," tweeted passenger Bryce Appleton. "We've been told we're not moving."
Melbourne's train network was earlier hit by major disruption for the third day in a row, with Frankston line trains suspended between Caulfield and Moorabbin.
Trains were halted after a person was struck by a train and killed at Bentleigh station at 12.50pm, with buses replacing trains between Caulfield and Moorabbin.
As with the Belgrave and Lilydale lines on Tuesday and Wednesday, Metro had advised passengers to allow for a substantially longer journey time and had warned that trains would remain suspended past the evening peak.
"Customers on the Frankston line, please allow a 45 minute extra travel time this pm. This is due to an earlier incident," Metro tweeted earlier this afternoon. "The disruption on the Frankston line will exceed the usual expected clearance time. Emergency services are on site."
VicRoads closed Centre Road in Bentleigh in both directions as a result of the death, from Nicholson Street to Bendigo Avenue.
Metro have also tweeted that an electrical fault near Tottenham means some outbound Sunbury trains may be delayed for up to 15 minutes.

So maybe I'm not the best one to offer relationship advice, but in this case, I think I can help.
On the Today Show Thursday morning, Kiri Blakeley promoted her new book, Can't Think Straight. Here's NBC's promo for the segment:
Kiri Blakeley, whose memoir "Can't Think Straight" describes the shock she experienced when she learned her fiance of 10 years was secretly pursuing relationships with men, tells Meredith Vieira that she "couldn't get as angry" as she would have if he'd been having an affair with a woman.
Let's start with "fiance of 10 years." Really? After 10 years, she thought they were getting married soon?
In the video, she said her fiance didn't fit any of the stereotypes of what a gay man should be, so she didn't know. Really? In this day and age you think gay men only fit stereotypes?
But what clues might she have picked up on? They weren't having much sex anymore. They weren't seeing each other as much anymore (because he's spending time with his boyfriend). They weren't having much sex anymore. And the biggest clue? They weren't having much sex anymore.

Topic: Someone Explain Please
I've been loosely following a young woman's blog who states she was diagnosed with non-resectable intrahapetic CC two years ago and through chemo, supplements, strict strict diet and Vitamin C infusions, she no longer has any signs of cancer. It's under The Cancer Assassin and she's from Portland Oregon. I was hoping Eli, Percy, and all others, if they had time might take a look at her story and comment. My main question is, is it possible she was misdiagnosed? Or even better is it possible her liver mets were that bad and her lifestyle change truly cured her? (I don't want to bring this up to my son until I've received the opinions of those of you who have been in this arena much longer than myself. )

The Relaxation Response is a simple technique developed by Harvard cardiologist Herbert Benson to help reduce stress and prevent heart disease and other problems that can go along with it.
Sit comfortably with your eyes closed. Starting with your toes and moving up towards your head, relax every muscle in your body and keep them relaxed throughout the exercise. Now, focus your attention on your breath. Breathing through your nose, silently say the word "one" on each exhalation. When you find your mind wandering, gently but firmly return your attention to your breathing. With practice you may be able to get through an entire 10-20 minute session without having your mind wander. When you finish, sit quietly for a few moments before returning to your day.
This simple exercise is very effective at returning your body to a calm and relaxed state.

ERIN, Wis. - Saint Leo junior men's golfer Nick Brothers is on the cusp of solidifying one of the 64 match play spots at the U.S. Amateur Championships, recording a two-day score of even-par 142.
Currently sitting in a tie for 64th, Brothers fired a second round, one-under-71 at the par-72, 7,729-yard Erin Hills Golf Course in Erin, Wis. to put him within shouting distance of the match play field.
Due to inclement weather, yesterday's second round was halted and carried over to today. Multiple individuals of the 315-person tournament are still on the course.
The top-64 to finish will advance to a match play series beginning tomorrow, August 25. If there a tie for the 64th position there will be a playoff to determine who advances to the match play.
Brothers would be the first Lions' golfer in history to advance to match play at the U.S. Amateur Championship.

Collaborating on Research for Diseases of the Developing World
Many pharmaceutical companies, including Pfizer, are committed to biomedical research to improve health in both developed regions and in the developing world. Our efforts include research on medicines across multiple therapeutic areas, with academia, global health organizations, public-private partnerships and companies that share our commitment.
Pfizer supports research programs on public health issues associated with the developing world including research on tuberculosis, malaria and river blindness, and through our joint venture with GSK, ViiV Healthcare, on HIV/AIDS.
Working with the World Health Organization's Special Programme for Research in Tropical Diseases, we provided broad access to Pfizer's library of medicinal compounds to scientists from other organizations, and also trained scientists from developing countries to investigate new approaches to treating or preventing diseases. To expand screening efforts for tropical diseases such as African sleeping sickness and Chagas disease, Pfizer is collaborating with the Drugs for Neglected Diseases Initiative while pursuing a molecular approach for them with several UK universities.
For more information on ViiV Healthcare please visit http://www.viivhealthcare.com.
Tuberculosis (TB) continues to be a major global health problem, with an estimated 8.8 million new cases and 1.6 million deaths annually. Efforts to control and eradicate TB have been stymied by the spread of HIV/AIDS in TB-endemic regions, and by the global emergence of strains resistant to current TB drugs. To address this pressing medical need, we have been working with external partners to pursue new treatments.
We are currently evaluating a new compound, PNU-100480, which has successfully completed Phase 1 studies and will be starting first-in-patient studies this year. PNU-100480 is an oxazolidinone, a class of antimicrobials that inhibits bacterial protein synthesis. PNU-100480 is being developed to treat TB, including multidrug-resistant TB—a form of the disease that is emerging as a serious public health threat, and is especially lethal and difficult to treat.
Given the global nature of TB and the likelihood that a combination drug regimen will work most effectively against the highly complex disease organism, engagement with external partners is vital. Pfizer is actively participating in the Critical Path to TB Drug Regimens initiative, an innovative collaboration sponsored by the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation that brings together public and private sectors to accelerate the development of new, safe and shorter duration TB drug regimens. We are also collaborating with various organizations to tackle two other challenges associated with TB: long duration of TB drug regimens, and negative interactions with HIV treatments.
TB is now the leading cause of death among patients with HIV/AIDS, accounting for roughly half a million deaths a year, according to the World Health Organization. Standard TB treatments such as rifampin can interact with the antiretroviral drugs used to treat HIV. Rifabutin, which is produced by Pfizer, does not interact with this class of medicines. As part of the our commitment to increasing access to life-saving medicines, Pfizer and the Clinton Foundation HIV/AIDS Initiative are partnering to make rifabutin available to low-income populations in emerging markets.
Malaria afflicts up to 250 million people annually, killing close to 1 million people a year, mostly children in Africa.
We are providing the Medicines for Malaria Venture (MMV) access to Pfizer's library of chemical entities to screen approximately 200,000 compounds that have the potential to be developed into new treatments against P. falciparum, the parasite that causes acute malaria, including multidrug-resistant strains. In collaboration with MMV and the London School of Hygiene & Tropical Medicine, we are in Phase III development of the combination of azithromycin and chloroquine as a potential intermittent preventive treatment of malaria for pregnant women in sub-Saharan Africa. Malaria in pregnancy is an area of high unmet medical need and is one of the most common preventable causes of maternal and infant mortality and morbidity in malaria endemic countries; approximately 30 million pregnant women are at risk for malaria in sub-Saharan Africa each year.
For more information on Pfizer's Malaria Efforts
View Malaria Efforts.
ViiV Healthcare, a company launched in 2009 by Pfizer and GlaxoSmithKline (GSK), focuses solely on research, development and commercialization of HIV treatments.
ViiV Healthcare integrates the pipeline and marketed HIV portfolios of both Pfizer and GSK, and is continuing the commitments of both companies to improve access to HIV medicines for everyone. Not-for-profit pricing for HIV medicines is being provided to those most in need—a total of 69 countries. To make antiretrovirals at lower cost for people in the Least Developed Countries, Low Income Countries and sub-Saharan Africa, ViiV has granted 11 voluntary licenses to Indian and African generic companies. ViiV Healthcare is also supporting research and development activities specifically to address HIV treatment challenges including treatments and formulations for children living with HIV, and managing a new fund to help prevent mother-to-child transmission.

SMWC to host open houses
October 28th, 2013 | SMWC
Saint Mary-of-the-Woods College (SMWC) will host two open houses in November to provide the community with an opportunity to learn more about two programs designed for busy professionals looking to take their careers to new heights: Woods Online and Master of Leadership Development. These programs are for professionals of all backgrounds and experiences, from first time college students to returning students.
Woods Online is an opportunity to earn a bachelor's degree entirely online. The program offers flexible schedules, 8-week and 16-week formats, accessible professors, online tutoring and learning approaches specifically designed for adult students.
The one-year, online hybrid Master of Leadership Development (MLD) program is a distinguished alternative to the typical MBA. It confronts the critical areas of leadership, team effectiveness, power and relationships, strategic planning, influencing with authority and communication. Students choose from four focus areas: not-for profit, financial, organizational and individual leadership.
Learn more about these programs at one of the open information sessions in November. On Nov. 7, 2013, from 5 to 8 p.m., representatives will be at the Bouncin' Barn. Prospective students can bring their children to this informational event. The children can play while the prospective student talks with SMWC staff about the programs. There will be a live remote from MIX-FM, and free admission, pizza and giveaways.
Additionally, prospective students will discover another opportunity to learn more about Woods Online and Master of Leadership Development at the newly renovated Indiana Theater on Nov. 21, 2013, from 5 to 8 p.m.
For more information, visit www.smwc.edu/online for Woods Online or www.smwc.edu/graduate/mld for the MLD program.

resistivity plotting
I am running a stationary model of a wire network usinf Electric currents and Heat transfer in solids . Each copper
wire (linearised reistivity) has a constant current. There are heat losses to the air and heat conducted between
wires at their junctions.
There is a resultant temperature gradient along each wire. How can I get a plot of the variation in resistivity?
I see uniform heat losses along the wire even though the temperature varies (and therefore resistance should vary)
Something seems to be working because temperatures are a bit lower with constant conductivity model.

Re: resistivity plotting
to enhance the thermal cooling, if done with convective cooling, is to run once with a large "h[W/m^2/K]" value i.e. 100x what you expect
To plot the resistivity, its normally the material value, with a call to the temperature, something like material.
You could also consider using the JH physics (Joule heating) which combines both EC and HT pre-cooked for you.
Good luck

An Open Letter to a Fat Shamer
Like many, I see obnoxious, annoying, or generally ridiculous things on my Facebook newsfeed everyday.
I normally ignore them, or if it's consistent, I'll simply hide that person's posts, so I don't have to see it anymore. But one person's recent post struck a nerve.

The black-and-white kitten is very much on the road to recovery.
Allison Haffey was nervous when she called the veterinarian Thursday morning to check on the kitten she and a group of coworkers pulled from the housing of a pickup truck's fan.
The injured, dehydrated and scared cat survived a 45-mile ride to Burgaw in the engine compartment of the pickup Wednesday before it was taken to Burgaw Veterinary Hospital Clinic for treatment.
"Yesterday it was breathing so hard and fast and it was so stressed out and I was a little scared when I called, 'What if it didn't make it?'" she said.
Haffey's worries proved unfounded, though, as the black-and-white kitten is very much on the road to recovery. While it is still at the vet's, being monitored for dehydration and being nursed to health, the expectation is that the cat will make a full recovery.
"I was so relieved because last night, dropping it off, the difference in the picture that you see today is a world of difference," Haffey said.
The group of employees at Cardinal Metal Works in Burgaw who rescued the cat are confident they'll be able to foot the bill for its examination, fluids and the partial amputation of its tail.
Anyone interested in helping to pay for the cat's care can send donations to the Pender Humane Society, Attention Deb or Allison, P.O. Box 626, Burgaw, NC 28425. Donations should reference the cat that was pulled out of the pickup truck.
Extra donations could go to the Pender Humane Society and be earmarked for the care of other cats or kittens that need medical care, Haffey said.
Several people expressed interest in adopting or fostering the kitten, but Haffey said no decision will be made until its treatment at the clinic is complete. Anyone interested in fostering the cat should fill out an application at the Pender Humane Society, 1407 N.C. 53 in Burgaw, she said.
After a stressful Wednesday afternoon, the cat's rescuers are finally able to take a deep breath after finding out that the feline is likely to be OK.
"I feel like I've been through a whirlwind," Haffey said.

Security Council Open Debate: Statement by Ambassador Berger on Conflict Prevention and natural resources
(Statement as delivered by Ambassador Miguel Berger, Deputy Permanent Representative, on Conflict Prevention and natural resources)
"Mr. President,
Effective and transparent management of natural resources matters. Natural resources are still fuelling conflicts, both internal and between states. Many countries rich in natural resources are immersed in poverty because of mismanagement of these resources and corruption.
We therefore welcome today's open debate and the United Kingdom's initiative to explore – in the context of maintaining international peace and security – ways how to strengthen responsible management of extractive industries.
Germany aligns itself with the statement delivered by the European Union. I would like to stress the following points:
Financial transparency in the extractive industries and transparency of supply in case of mineral imports from conflict regions are in our view crucial to help reduce the potential for conflict and to deter corruption. Germany therefore supports EITI (the Extractive Industries Transparency Initiative) and the Kimberley Process. In the Security Council, we have actively supported setting out clear standards of supply chain due diligence for businesses using minerals from the DR Congo in accordance with the OECD guidelines. Furthermore, Germany is leading a certification and traceability initiative to establish certified trading chains in Rwanda and the DR Congo for minerals and natural resources, fostering the efforts of the local mining authorities and the International Conference on the Great Lakes Region (ICGLR).
However, such technical solutions alone cannot stop the trade in minerals from fuelling conflicts. It requires governance in resource-exporting countries based on the rule of law to make such technical solutions feasible. In this context, sufficient capacity is indispensable to ensure compliance. Corruption needs to be fought, impunity ended. Closer cooperation among countries in which actors exploiting and using natural resources operate should be pursued. With regard to due diligence mechanisms, quality, and independence of audits need to be ensured. Addressing the problem of conflict minerals therefore also requires political solutions and further steps.
In Africa, the AU and subregional organisations such as the ICGLR (International Conference on the Great Lakes Region) have an important role to play in this field. Germany welcomes their efforts and supports them as well as projects to strengthen good governance of mineral resources in a number of countries.
Germany also backs the UN Global Compact which assits companies and investors and facilitates constructive discussions on how to engage in conflict-affected and high-risk areas in compliance with UN standards including the principles of anti-corruption, human rights and the respect of the environment.
Support by UN actors also remains key. We want to specifically encourage the Peacebuilding Commission to engage in capacity building of national administrations as the successful implementation of control and regulating initiatives depend on functioning administrations and their integrity. PBC engagement to support the fight against corruption in affected countries also remains crucial.
Furthermore, we believe that sanctions against traders of natural resources and companies dealing with armed groups could contribute to strengthening effective management of extractive industries. Existing sanctions regimes including the regime for the DR Congo provide for this option. It should be applied wherever feasible. In this context we would also like to raise awareness for a growing concern that – similar to poorly managed natural resources – contributes to conflicts and regional instability, namely poaching and the illicit trade of wildlife. We urgently need new strategies and more international efforts to address the increase in illegal wildlife exploitation. Exploring options for the United Nations to address the negative impact poaching has on peace and security will be at the core of a policy forum we will hold in cooperation with the International Peace Institute (IPI) tomorrow at the IPI. All member states are cordially invited to attend.
Thank you, Mr. President."

I have always been in awe of wooden windmills, from the first time I, as a child, attempted to paint a Dutch country side with a windmills-dotted skyline to the time when I visited a windmill-turned-brewery (Browerij't IJ) in Amsterdam on my student trip in 2011. My short time in Amsterdam had not given me the scope to visit any other windmills around the area and my awe persisted. In my recent Euro-trip, I decided to get a closure on my infatuation and visit the Dutch countryside teeming with these imposing wooden structures. The visit turned out to be much more than windmills and alas, my love for the Dutch countryside continues…In Netherlands, there are two very popular neighborhoods which have been protected and preserved to display the Dutch way of living and trades and crafts from rural Netherlands. One is Kinderdijk (near Rotterdam) which is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The other is Zaanse Schans (near Amsterdam). We decided on Zaanse Schans because it was easier for us travel-wise. We took a bus from Stuttgart to Amsterdam and then bought an Amsterdam & Region Travel Pass, which covers a lot of neighborhoods around Amsterdam including the famous Keukenhof tulip gardens and Zaanse Schans. Zaanse Schans is a short 45 mins trip from Amsterdam Central by bus.We had booked an Airbnb accommodation in Zaandijk, very close to the site of Zaanse Schaans. After freshening up, we took our bicycles and made our way to the site. It was very windy and our hair was windswept. As we neared the place, a strong odour accosted us. We were to find out later that it was the emissions from the chocolate and starch factories in the region.We had a preconceived picture of a few windmills and wooden houses that we would get to see at the site. But the scene that welcomed us transported us immediately to the industrial age in Netherlands. It is like an open-air museum with bakery, cheese factory, clog-making warehouse and wooden houses with barns and working-windmills on the banks of river Zaan that flows in the area. It indeed looked like a painting.

Hamburg is considerably smaller than Berlin, more tight-night and connected, and yet thoroughly eclectic when it comes to art and music.Getting around in HamburgThe U-Bahn is the best way to explore most of Hamburg's sights. A lot of walking will inevitably be involved. A single day pass for unlimited use of all public transport costs €6.20 a day for adults, €2.30 for children aged 6 to 14.

I realized that the things you want dearly may be are denied to you only temporarily, may be they come back to you in a way that proves to be much better than it would have been earlier and that ultimately no one except God can deny you the happiness you want for yourself.

Like most people, I was first introduced to knitting and crocheting by my grandmother. I watched Grandma Yee stitch and purl with great ease, needles clicking and clacking, all while watching the Lakers game at the same time.
Grandma Yee worked as a secretary almost all her life, at banks, state government offices and the Catholic Archdiocese, so TV time was doubled as crochet time almost by necessity. But that didn't stop her from making sweaters, mittens and scarves for her three grandchildren. She crocheted the red and white hat for my Where's Waldo Halloween costume, complete with a nice, big red poof on top.
While I never took up the trade myself, I do have great admiration for those with fingers nimble enough to knit. So when I visited 3-week-old Yarn Del Sol in Mission Viejo, I was pleased to see that this yarn store, at 24471 Alicia Parkway in the shopping center with the LA Fitness near the I-5, does more than just provide supplies.
The store boasts plenty of vividly colored skeins of yarn sourced locally and from far-off places around the world like Israel, Tibet and Uruguay, but Yarn Del Sol's real charm is in its working spaces. Just past the entryway, six comfy chairs are set up in a circle to allow patrons to sit and knit while chatting, and several dining-room-style tables are set up throughout the store to further facilitate communal craft work.
"With knitting and crocheting, it's not just the craft," owner Rosemary Stoll said. "It's the sense of community. This is our living room. People can come in, connect and make friends."
The communal spaces in Yarn Del Sol also serve as educational spaces. The store offers both free and paid classes in knitting and crocheting and eventually in spinning and weaving. But if you want to just come in and knit or crochet, that's free anytime. Every day has a different theme – for instance, Wednesday's theme is "Fiber for lunch," which means customers are encouraged to bring their own lunch and "get in a few rows" while eating and chatting.
"When we women find our kids have left the nest, a lot of times we don't quite know what to do with ourselves, so it's a matter of finding something to be passionate about and building friendships with other people in similar situations," Stoll said.
People in Southern California like fast food. That's a pretty simple fact that most people can agree upon. Drive-through lines pile up with cars and make it a slog for people weary from the workday to get home with their quick, possibly guilt-laden meal.
McDonald's off of El Paseo in Rancho Santa Margarita has a solution for that lunchtime and 5 p.m. car crisis – a two-lane drive-through. Now, the whole drive-through isn't two lanes. What happens is that the line splits in two at the point where drivers can order. That way, one person gets to order while the other has time to mull over his choices while looking at the menu, and this goes back and forth till the line is depleted.
For the sake of this column, I braved the double drive-through and came out with my usual chicken sandwich and french fries. The system worked like a breeze, but whether or not I came out victorious is another matter entirely.

Yanking off his warm-up top, LSU point guard Anthony Hickey jogged to the scorer's table five minutes into a 79-63 victory against Bethune-Cookman and ended a temporary exile.
Sitting out practice and a victory against Houston Baptist, the Tigers sophomore guard required only 12 seconds to leave his first charcoal sketch in the game, bolting ahead of guard Charles Carmouche to corral a bounce pass for a layup after steal near midcourt.
The instant jolt is the omnipresent allure of keeping Hickey, who missed an exhibition and two nonconference games because of suspensions, in the fold for first-year coach Johnny Jones.
Yet the fact Jones, a stalwart assistant under former coach Dale Brown and 11-year veteran at North Texas, required three corrective measures raises a question: What amount of effort to keep Hickey outweighs the benefit of inheriting an asset key to implementing his up-tempo system?
On Monday, Jones clearly said he is "not a 'line in the sand' type of coach" and handled Hickey, a 5-11, 178-pound native of Hopkinsville, Ky., in the same manner he'd expect from a colleague dealing with his son.
"All of these kids are an extended part of my family," Jones said. "If that's giving them a second chance or whatever, trying to help them and deal with their growth, you can do that."
Granted, Hickey approaches his latest stint on Jones' probation as creeping ever-closer to a line resulting in his ouster — no matter if he is the Tigers' assist leader (4.0 per game) and his on-ball defensive skills are the best catalyst for LSU's fast break.
"I look at it that way," Hickey said of viewing his latest stint watching from a folding chair on the sideline as a last chance. "I don't want to go through that again."
Does Hickey, who will be coming off the bench in the Tigers' Southeastern Conference opener at Auburn on Wednesday, think he'd still be in uniform if former coach Trent Johnson had not decamped for TCU in April?
"I don't know," Hickey said after pausing for a moment.
Gleaning insight into Jones' handling of Hickey doesn't appear complex. The coach's comments over the past week sketch a basic outline: An empathetic ear and tone, but a handy hook to pull Hickey out of the lineup if the message appears too soft or unheeded.
"I understand the temptations and things that are our there," Jones said. "I've been coaching a long time and seen the sides. He's the guy that's blessed with talent, but so many other people out there have been as well. I try to utilize examples to help him."
And reading between the lines of Hickey's statements hints at potential causes, ranging from settling into a seat in a lecture hall to carrying out what's called for on a syllabus.
"You need to get these things done first," Hickey said of Jones' dictum. "You can't have basketball if you don't get in your books right. I was being late to things, just not being responsible."
Hickey also understands he's put himself in a position where earning bits of trust back remains his sole option, along with the skepticism about whether he can bank enough to set aside doubts permanently.
"If I'm flying a plane, and I was in trouble, I would have crashed it," Hickey said. "Everyone on my plane was in trouble. I told my teammates, I'm going to jump on their plane for a little while."
For his part, Jones' said LSU has buttressed Hickey as he works through a maturation process.
"His team has really been good," Jones said. "The great part is to see him be receptive to his teammates as well."
The practical perk to keeping Hickey on scholarship was easily apparent against Bethune-Cookman, where he scored 14 points on 6-of-11 shooting along with nabbing four steals in 28 minutes.
Hickey and Carmouche, a Memphis transfer, pair up to provide stellar defensive pressure out front, speeding up opposing offenses in a conference where the tempo is among the slowest nationally.
It also allows Jones to set a stable guard rotation with role clearly defined.
Hickey is the conductor, using dribble penetration to create dump-off situations in the lane or kickouts to the perimeter.
Carmouche, a 6-4, 187-pound New Orleans native, can put the ball on the floor, get to the rim and the foul line — he leads LSU with 45 free-throw attempts — but also spot up on the perimeter.
"Both of them have been really good competitors on the floor," Jones said of Hickey and Carmouche. "It's been one of those things that have evolved over some time, and it's great to see that type of chemistry happen as quick with two competitors out there."
Watching Carmouche, who is averaging 9.8 points per game, and Andre Stringer find early degrees of success only hardened the reality of sitting out for Hickey. And Jones has hinted that a player seeing a team thrive without his presence can be a tonic.
"I've been on the bench and the sidelines watching," Hickey said. "I see everything this team goes through, and I see them working hard and me just sitting. I'm just studying the game, and sitting over there made me a better player."
Amid doubts he can sort out whatever issue plagues him, Hickey said there's only one message left.
"You get it or you don't," Hickey said.

Assistant Professor
Marine & Environmental Studies
Nathalie Reyns, Ph.D., teaches core and upper division courses in oceanography, marine ecology and how humans impact the oceans. Reyns' research interests focus on identifying the factors that influence the dispersal of marine organisms, to better understand the population dynamics of these organisms and the implications for fisheries management and marine conservation. Reyns is also very interested in advancing marine science education and improving ocean literacy, and regularly provides research opportunities for undergraduate students.
Reyns' research focuses on identifying the biophysical factors (endogenous and exogenous environmental cues, hydrodynamic conditions) that influence the transport and dispersal of marine organisms, their settlement dynamics, and recruitment to benthic habitats. Research in her lab is conducted using laboratory experiments to examine behavioral responses of larvae in still and flowing water, and field studies to quantify larval abundance and distribution in relation to oceanographic conditions. Reyns has ongoing research projects (locally and in Bahia Magdalena, BCS, Mexico) investigating a range of topics including postlarval settlement dynamics and larval behaviors. Reyns also mentors undergraduate research projects that include field work examining the population dynamics of organisms living in local rocky intertidal and sandy beach environments.
Reyns enjoys interacting with students as they often contribute a fresh perspective to the classroom and ask questions that stimulate her to think about science in different ways. As a teacher, Reyns' goals are to excite students about science (particularly those that are not science majors) and the process of learning, provide students with a learning environment that stimulates critical thinking and problem-solving and teach students the skills necessary to become successful in their scientific careers and everyday life. Reyns regularly offers Life in the Ocean, Introduction to Physical Oceanography, Marine Environment and Marine Community Ecology.

Escape can be found with the click of a button, but the further they distance themselves from reality, the greater their need to connect. Amid this battle between fantasy and reality comes UN PLUGGED IN, an end-of-the-world drama about a group of friends fighting for the connections that matter most.

He is a member of the Primary Stages Dorothy Strelsin Writers Group.
Michelle Bossy's directing credits include Brian Pracht's Low Brow, Dread Awakening, South Beach Rapture, I Love You, I Think, Sarajevo's Child, Little Monsters, High School Confidential and Bicycle Girl.
Michael P. Kramer (two-time New York Innovative Theater Award-winning designer of Ragtime and Children of Eden) is the scenic designer. Joey Blaha (Theater For The New City's Heathens) is the costume designer. Nicole Pearce (LAByrinth, The New Group) is the lighting designer. Janie Bullard (Prospect Theater Company's Myths and Hymns) is the sound designer.

John Martinez (Convergent Theater's Never the Sinner) is the production manageR.

Jess Johnston (Daryl Roth Theatrical's Tokio Confidential) is the production stage manager. Lindsey Sherman is the assistant stage manager.
UNPLUGGED IN will be performed at Theatre Row's Lion Theatre (410 West 42nd Street between 9th and 10th Avenues) beginning tonight, May 25.

University police are getting a leg up on patrolling campus. Make that four legs.
Thanks to an agreement with the Plymouth County Sheriff's Department, the university now has a part-time mounted police unit.
The horses are on campus as needed, for special events and to patrol the surrounding trails and other areas. The program will also serve as a community outreach tool. Meanwhile, plans call for BSU's equestrian team to play a role in the program. (Video by students Travis Garlick and Yvana Osborne)

Branden and Mike present the entire BEFORE WATCHMEN panel from C2E2.
Branden and Mike present the entire BEFORE WATCHMEN panel from C2E2.
Very cool idea for an episode. Though I imagine it would be much more hostile had Max been involved.
I agree with Branden about the characters. I've never thought much of Watchmen and the flat and uninteresting characters are a main part of that. I doubt they can sustain their own series.
The panel sounded like an audio trainwreck. None of the writers/artists actually sounded interested in the series and it sounds like they're doing it for the money.
Apparently Grant Morrison turned this gig down.
Crowds at conventions are such sycophantic dipsticks.
Thanks for listening, crazyman. We really appreciate the feedback. It makes us feel all warm and fuzzy to know that at least a couple people listen to this stuff.
What's your take on BEFORE WATCHMEN? Do you think it's morally objectionable?

Box Score (PDF)
PHILADELPHIA -Utilizing a full-court pressure defense and alternating its many options in the backcourt, La Salle put away the Penn men's basketball team on Saturday with a pair of runs -- onein each half --and pinned a 74-57 decision on the Quakers at Tom Gola Arena in Penn's second Big 5 contest of the season.
Penn turned the ball over 21 times on Saturday, 15 of them in the first half alone. Despite those issues, the Quakers were down just 20-18 with a little more than eight minutes left before halftime when Greg Louis grabbed the rebound off a Tony Hicks miss and threw down a dunk.
As it turned out, that would be Penn's last field goal for more than five minutes as the Quakers missed seven straight shots and turned it over three other times. La Salle took advantage, scoring 12 unanswered points to jump out to a 32-18 advantage. Dau Jok finally ended the skid with a three-pointer, but the guard-centric Explorers (10-3) would not be threatened again. Their lead was 10 (36-26) at the break.
Ramon Galloway scored the first four points of the second half to push La Salle in front by 14, hitting a pair of free throws and then stealing the ball for a dunk. Henry Brooks got two of those points back with a jumper, but Tyreek Duren drained a three-pointer and the Quakers never got closer than 13 points the rest of the way. Duren would score 13 points in the half -- all of them coming in the first eight minutes of the period -- while Galloway finished with nine.
La Salle's second run came midway through the second half, when Penn went more than three minutes without a point and the Explorers scored eight straight. That made the score 61-37 with nine minutes to play.
Hicks finished the game with a 14 points to lead Penn, while Miles Cartwright had 11. Jok, a junior,had a massive game for the Quakers, nearly garnering a double-double with eight points and 11 rebounds, while freshman Darien Nelson-Henry had eight points and eight boards. Penn had a season-high 43 rebounds and outboarded La Salle by eight, but the Quakers shot just 36.1 percent from the field while the Explorers were at 43.6 percent and hit nine of their 22 three-point attempts.
Penn returns to action on Tuesday night, playing its first game at The Palestra in exactly a month. The Quakers host Lafayette in a game that is scheduled to tip off at 7:30 p.m.
Game Notes: Penn played for the third straight game without leading scorer Fran Dougherty, who is out due to mononucleosis ... Penn lost to La Salle for the sixth year in a row and now leads the series, 38-28 ... Penn had 43 rebounds and took 61 shots, both season highs, and tied a season high with four blocked shots ... Penn's bench players outscored the starters, 36-21, the third time this season the bench outscored the starters ... Freshman Tony Hicks had 14 points, a season/career high, for his second-straight double-figure scoring game and fourth this season ... Hicks led Penn in scoring for the second time this season (also at Penn State) ... Junior Miles Cartwright had 11 points, his fourth straight double-digit scoring game and team-leading ninth this season ... Cartwright went 4-of-4 at the foul line; he has made 10 in a row, 31 of his last 33, and is 53-of-58 (.914) over his last 10 contests ... Cartwright also tied a career high with two blocked shots ... Junior Dau Jok had a season/career high in rebounds (11) and became the third different Penn player this season to have a double-figure rebound total in a game (also Dougherty and sophomore Greg Louis) ... Jok led Penn in boards, the fifth different player to lead them in rebounding in a game ... Jok also tied a season/career high with eight points ... Freshman Darien Nelson-Henry set season/career highs in points (8) and rebounds (8), and has scored 27 points in the last four games (6.8 ppg) ... Sophomore Camryn Crocker set a season/career high in assists (6) ... Sophomore Henry Brooks had eight points, giving him 28 points in the last three games (9.3 ppg).

To be honest i'm not entirely sure what this item is!
I think it is a womens belt dating back to the Victorian era - it's very pretty and has a very old fashioned clasp. It has no labels on.
I would love to find out some information about it and maybe how much it might be worth so if anyone can tell me anything about it that would be great.
Please don't hesitate to contact me as any comments would be fantastic.
Thank you :)

A top-of-the-head lineup of greatest Mets would look something like: Piazza-C, Hernandez 1B, Alfonzo 2B, Wright 3B, Reyes SS, Jones LF, Beltran CF, Strawberry RF. In other words, the opportunities to see a good percentage of the finest Mets to ever man a position together have been rare. Piazza-Hernandez-Strawberry were together from Strawberry's promotion in 1983 until the end of the 1989 season. Piazza and Alfonzo played together from the day Piazza arrived via trade in 1998 until the day Alfonzo left after the 2002 season. Wright, Beltran and Reyes have been together since the start of the 2005 season, when the Mets signed Beltran to a contract that no one should regret, except possibly Beltran.
Not only have these three been together for about as long as Hernandez-Carter-Strawberry, they've been three elite players for longer. By 1987, Carter wasn't a top hitter anymore. Alfonzo already began breaking down by 2001. But the current three have been great nearly from the start of their collaboration, and are great now.
Beltran had a down year in 2005, and Reyes wasn't yet the dangerous Jose Reyes-just the potentially dangerous Jose Reyes- but by 2006, all three were elite players. And here again in 2011, all three are elite players- Reyes and Beltran All Stars, and Wright about to return. That Wright was less-than-elite while playing with a broken back doesn't make him any less impressive, and there's zero reason to expect he'll fail to be among the top 3B in the game now that he's returning to the lineup at full strength.
And no offense to Ruben Tejada, or Justin Turner, or Scott Hairston, but that Monday night lineup without all three players wasn't nearly as compelling. It felt a lot like watching Mike Marshall, Barry Lyons and Darryl Boston.
The Mets finally get Reyes and Beltran back for Tuesday night's clash against the Cardinals, roughly five years after the three greats took the Mets quite close to toppling Albert Pujols and celebrating a National League pennant on the Shea infield. If you want to give Carlos Beltran the blame for that final at-bat, I hope you will also credit him with the three home runs he hit in the series to get the Mets that close to victory. Redefining clutch to exclude those blasts is pretty silly.
But in what seems like the theme of the Reyes-Beltran-Wright Mets, the three stars won't have one final moment to appear together before the home crowd, it appears. They'll miss such a reunion by a single day. Reyes and Beltran are scheduled to play through Thursday afternoon at home, with Wright set to rejoin them on Friday night- in Florida. And the Mets play only road games from there until July 31- against the Marlins, the Reds, and the Nationals.
It will be an upset if Carlos Beltran isn't traded by July 31, and not the kind of underdog victory Mets fans should cheer. I say this without any joy, but the right thing is to deal Beltran now for young talent. (Well, the right thing was to surround Beltran, Wright and Reyes with solid secondary players to take advantage of their peaks, but that ship has sailed.) The Mets are reading the market correctly and functioning in the proper fashion, no surprise given the front office now in place. Perhaps Beltran's exit can provide a footnote equivalent to the day Mike Hampton left town, giving the Mets a draft pick that turned into David Wright. Perhaps not. But a shot at another Wright is a better bet than two months of Beltran and a long, still silence.
And yet, while the long-term view proves the front office correct- and should be their only focus- the fan who enjoys Carlos Beltran do practically everything on a baseball field felt cheated that three of a precious few remaining games saw Carlos Beltran sidelined with what sounds like an awful case of the flu. (I guess this is where Twitter would make the joke: Selfish Beltran didn't buy a better immune system with his bloated contract.)
There's no guarantee that Beltran will stick around until even the deadline- when the Mets get the right combination offered for him, they can and should strike. And I personally would want to build a few extra days into the deal, just for safety, to navigate Beltran's no-trade clause and any last demands from Scott Boras.
In other words, maybe it is time for me to see the Great American Ballpark in Cincinnati. Maybe it is time for all of us to see the Great American Ballpark in Cincinnati, or even that monstrosity in Florida. It is easy to understand the changing Met roster, and hope for a better tomorrow. But how many decades did we spend waiting for another trio like Carter-Hernandez-Strawberry? Who among us wouldn't have gotten on a plane in those intervening years if seeing the three of them playing in orange and blue waited for us upon landing?
Maybe it is all moot. Maybe, as I wrote this piece, the Mets already traded Beltran. If not, however, enjoy the last vestiges of an era in team history. And when the deal finally comes, do everyone a favor, and remember not to blame the disappointment you are bound to feel on the departed star, but on the players that were missing throughout his tenure- the Lenny Dykstras, Ray Knights and Roger McDowells that, this time around, never showed up.

For the last few days Ancestry has been saying that they will be putting up a new set of records on the 24 October so I expected that FindMyPast would do the same ….. and I was right!!
St Dunstan, Stepney baptisms has been added to the Dockland's Collection at FindMyPast. The additions 20,000+ records for the period 1697 – 1712. St Dunstan's must have been a busy parish to have generated that number of baptisms over a 15 year period.
The transcripts have been provided by the team at Dockland Ancestors.

RU482 - Thursday, August 25, 2011 - linkwhat uses expresscard?
I know there are WWAN modems, but those are getting harder to come by. Curious what the use for this would be Reply
michael2k - Thursday, August 25, 2011 - linkeSATA and USB3 are probably the biggest deals outside of WWAN. Reply
Kristian Vättö - Saturday, August 27, 2011 - link"ExpressCard and PC Card slots can be found on more
than 95 percent of notebook computers"
That is what ExpressCard organization claims (see the 2.0 spec link above).
Like I linked, there are USB 3.0 and eSATA adapters. Especially for MBPs these can be useful since Apple is pretty stingy with connections. Reply

Lisa Liddi, owner of Luxe Home Furnishings in San Clemente, says a small local business is the best business there is. She buys local whenever she can, using what she calls "resident pickers" focusing on high quality.
That focus was built during Liddi's years of working the sales floor in home stores such as Williams-Sonoma and The Limited, where she says she learned upscale customer care.
"The sale isn't final until the customer is happy," Liddi said. "Customer service is what drives business."
Liddi, who lives in Dana Point with her husband and two sons, opened Luxe Home Furnishings on Avenida Del Mar in 2006 and moved to North El Camino Real in June. She feels the store has become a destination because shoppers know she carries only quality products, including locally handmade decorative items.
"Quality is not inexpensive, but it is quality," Liddi said. "I have quite a few local artisans who bring in their work, and local shoppers are attracted to those items. Somehow it means more, especially if it's a gift purchase or with a special occasion in mind."
San Clemente solder artist Francis Wilson, who works with found objects, is known for adding an ornate element of crystal with clear and colored glass bound in metal. A round table at Luxe features some of Wilson's works – an old-time pinched-glass milk bottle with a large cross made of several dozen glass pieces soldered tightly together; a large conch shell on top of a tall antique bottle; a large piece of fan coral atop a clear 3½-gallon glass carboy probably once used to store wine.
Gary Story of San Clemente, who also works in found objects, focuses on furniture with a twist, updating the finish after making simple repairs. Story's items are spread through the store – a small sewing chest from the 1920s; a dresser from the 1930s; a small table with candles and frames on top.
"If I could be known for anything," Liddi said, "it would be as an advocate for art and that I go above and beyond to carry locally handmade items."
Liddi says she did a tremendous amount of research and traveling before opening her store. She stopped in dozens of stores in Arizona and Northern California to learn about sources and suppliers for the types of products she most wanted to carry. She says she found a great store near San Francisco and made a deal with the owner: He would tell her the source of every item she bought that day, and she carries those items today.
"I love it when people come in and they get vampire eyes when they find something they have been looking for," Liddi said.
Q. What is the cost range of products in your store?
A. I have cards starting at $5 and then up to a couple thousand for the bigger furniture pieces.
Q. What is the best thing about owning your business?
A. The freedom to come to work every day and engage my customers in a beautiful environment.
Q. What is the most challenging thing?
A. Not knowing what my customers wanted. I started out with a lot of furniture and very little of the smaller items. … I wasn't sure what my customers wanted in the smaller items, so I did not do much. But then I found that little by little the things I had out people would comment on and buy. I found that it was exactly what I thought I should have had in the end, so I trust myself now. And now the furniture is more of a backdrop for all the decorative items.
Q. What trends in home furnishings and decoration do you see?
A. I think we are the trend. The trend is happening … as you decorate your own home. If you like it, it's trend enough.
Q. What advice do you have for anyone starting a business?
A. Make every attempt to satisfy the customer. Sometimes my heart is bigger than what I can do, but you have to do whatever you can do. Also, many people think decorating their home is expensive, and it can be, but it doesn't have to be. You can change or add one thing and make a big difference with just a small update. A coat of paint doesn't cost that much and can make a big difference too.
