Mario & Nintendo Smash Kart is a special game in the Mario Kart series for the Wii U. Like other Nintendo 3DS and Wii U games, this game can be purchased both physically at retail and digitally through the Nintendo eShop. The game is the twelfth game overall in the Mario Kart series. It is the second Mario Kart game that has other first-party characters in it. The Wii U is also the first console to have more than one Mario Kart installment.
The gameplay maintains the traditional elements of previous Mario Kart games, mostly from the two recent installments on the Wii and Nintendo 3DS respectively. Karts, which feature similar designs from Mario Kart 7, can be customized once again, alongside the returning bikes, which handle similar to the karts now and can only perform a wheelie via a boost, and the newly introduced ATVs. The hang-glider and underwater mechanics also return, as well as Coins, with the player being able to collect up to ten in one race as in Mario Kart 7. Like Mario Kart Wii, twelve racers are present in normal races. Tricks and the ability to look behind also return in this game.
The newest feature for the series is anti-gravitational segments that not only allow for more dynamic track design, but also for racers to drive across walls, ceilings, and other seemingly unusual places. When in anti-gravity, if a racer bumps into another racer, the kart spins rather than just bumping and both racers receive a speed boost. This is called "spin boosting".
The game also features Wii U GamePad integration. In addition to the standard Off-TV Play, players also have the option of displaying the course map, and when neither the Off-TV display nor the map are being displayed, the GamePad can be used as a horn button. Players have the option to toggle between these features at will. The GamePad can also be used to toggle on and off the gyroscopic steering.
There is Miiverse integration, which allows players to share their replay videos and comment on others' videos, in a feature called Mario Kart TV. Another change is that in 2-player mode, the screen splits vertically instead of the horizontally in the other console Mario Kart games, a feature that was originally intended to be in Mario Kart 64 but was removed from the final game. Additionally, if the player falls off the edge of the track, Lakitu will pick them up and drop them back on to the track more quickly when compared to how he did this in past installments. This makes glitches involving falling into areas impossible.
Point management works similar to Mario Kart Wii, except that racers below top 3 get an extra point.
Game Modes
There are various game modes for Mario Kart 8. All modes available on singleplayer (some also on local and online multiplayer) are listed here.
Grand Prix
Mario Kart 8's Grand Prix works similar to past installments. Like past games the 50, 100, and 150cc engine classes are available by default, and completing 150cc unlocks Mirror; for the former three, however, Grand Prix rankings carry over to the lower engine classes after being completed on a higher engine class . Only the Mushroom and Shell Cups are available at the start of the game, with the others being unlocked after completing the cup before, and are available in every engine class after being unlocked. The player starts out with 5 coins on the first race of any cup. There is the usual four-race marathon. Players now have the option to do a multiplayer Grand Prix up to four players, unlike in most previous home console Mario Kart games, where only up to two players can race in Grand Prix.
Time Trails
Time Trial mode lets the player complete a selected course in the fastest time possible. Among the new features included, the user can upload Ghosts onto Miiverse and other players can give their comments about it. Additionally the user gains a stamp once he or she has won a race against a Nintendo Staff member Ghost. Leaderboards as seen in Mario Kart Wii also return.
VS Race
VS mode can be played locally with up to 4 players. Players can set rules like which items appear, the difficulty level of the CPUs, and Team or Solo racing. Players can also set how the courses appear, choose a course after one is finished, or play all tracks randomly or in order. In this game, Mirror Mode appears as a default engine class, even if it isn't unlocked in Grand Prix.
Battle Mode has been restored to how it once was, having specific tracks for the mode, despite there not being any returning ones. It combines survival battle mode from Mario Kart DS and earlier installments and the timed points battle mode introduced in Mario Kart Wii; all players start with 3 points and 3 balloons each. Successfully making an opponent lose a balloon awards the player a point, and losing a balloon through any method will cause the player to lose a point. Balloons can never be regained (unless one is stolen from another player with a Mushroom or a Super Star), and if all balloons are lost, points can no longer be lost or gained. Defeated players can still drive and attack players as a Ghost, although they cannot receive points. Players can also now adjust the time limit from one to five minutes, and they can set up to 32 rounds in set intervals.

curious ways of justice
Calcutta, Nov. 5: Hes a minister, a diamond appraiser and a TV actor.
Who doesnt know Pratim Chatterjee' (In picture above)
Three firemen that, too, working at Writers Buildings didnt. And paid for it with transfer.
Chatterjee was all fired up when they told him: Apni ke' Apnake to chini na. Jan, jan (Who are you' Dont seem to recognise you. Go away).
They should have known better when he asked them about the fire alarm at Writers. Hes, after all, the fire services minister.
Banished from Bengals seat of power, B.K. Sinha Ray, S.K. Dasgupta and S.P. Modak were sent to field duty in Salt Lake.
Around noon, there was a fire alarm on the ground floor of Writers, which prompted the firemen to requisition forces from headquarters.
The fire-tenders arrived, as did the minister from his second-floor office.
Where is the fire' he asked the trio, to be told to mind his business.
The mistake was immediately brought to their notice, they stammered an apology and said it was a false alarm.
Chatterjee, of several faces, went back to his room and called the three firemen: You will report to the Salt Lake office from tomorrow.
Officially, they were found guilty of dereliction of duty.
Fire service officials said the men only wanted to be left alone while doing their duty.

One-Year-Old Snowboarder [VIDEO]
When your kids were one-year-old, I am guessing you were excited that they were barely walking or hoping they would walk soon. However, would you have ever expected them to hop on a snowboard at that age? Ava Marie is a one-year-old little girl who knows how to handle a snowboard.

Wow! I can barely stay up on a pair of skis with poles. Kids are amazing!
I'm sure that her parents had her on a snowboard the day after she was born.
I can see this little one in the Olympics at some point and time.

Worst doctor ever
Had an emergency colonoscopy this doctor never examined me, during the procedure I woke up screaming, did he put me out again, no he told me to hold on a little longer , never came to see me to tell me what he found, was asked to call my family member told the nurse he did and he didn't . My entire body spine area and hips are black from being held down during the procedure. The worst expierencr of my life and I still have the pain, have to see another doctor asap because they found blood in my stool and he overlooked it.

Had a 4:30 appt yesterday. At 5:30 there were still 2 people ahead of us. Nurse was very rude! Office is dumpy. Office staff was offended when we thought they should apologize for doctor running late. We ended up leaving and will never return. Wish I could give no stars for overall rating.

Front desk staff is very discourteous and does not listen. I was told to follow up from hospital within 5-7 business days from an emergency procedure and was told I would have to wait over a month. I told staff to have dr. call me himself and then my appointment was made within a reasonable amount of time.

To busy to talk to you
I called and the lady who answered the phone was to busy to talk to me and asked me to leave my number so she could call me in afternoon to make an appointment, I said NO THANX , They are plenty other Gastro doctors that have way better reviews than Dr. Goyal and perhaps time to talk to you beside appointment schedule. If he is to busy to make an appointment I can imagine how busy he must be to exam en you or talk to You. I SAY NO THANK YOU !

It looks like the Award of Excellence from Wine Spectator is not such a tough thing to achieve. The award that recognizes a restaurant for having excellent wine selections and service was given to a restaurant that does not exist. The fake restaurant was made up to prove that the awards are not really awards but paid advertising ($250 "entry fee"X4000 entries=a million bucks). Even better the fake restaurant's fake reserve wine list was made up of some of the lowest rated WS wines. We are talking a list of 50 point wines, not quite an excellent list. Dr Vino blogs about it here.

text: Zynga is one of the largest risks to Facebook, accounting for 12% of revenue. If the relationship were to deteriorate, that is a significant portion of revenue Facebook would have to make up elsewhere, or risk seeing revenue growth slow, or even contract. Zynga's relationship expires with Facebook in May 2015. Facebook has mentioned mobile as an impediment to growth, having listed it twice in the risk section of its S-1 regulatory document. Despite that, the mobile advertising market is expected to reach $2.9 billion by 2014, up from $1.6 billion in 2012, according to BIA/Kelsey. Facebook has addressed this issue, most notably buying Instagram for $1 billion. Interested in more on Facebook? See TheStreet Ratings' report card for this stock.

So this guy I've known for a bit who hangs out with a good friend of mine always is staring at me. When I talk to him, he stares straight in my eyes, when he talks to my friend he'll look at me, whenever I'm near him he's always either staring into space or looking at me...He's a self proclaimed shy person and I have no idea what to make of his behavior or what to do about it! Please help!

Summer has arrived. Are you heading out to enjoy the warm weather? Check out this infographic on the best tech gadgets for the beach. http:/

Hoped to see bits about cameras, GPS, away from home apps, and such.
Jun 13, 2012 at 1:32 UTC
So, I was kind of hoping from the title that there were some great jobs at the beach. I need a job at a a beach.
Jun 13, 2012 at 3:03 UTC
Geez, Microsoft mysteriously forgot to ask about iPads/Android tablets and Kindles/Nooks/etc. That's all I saw on the beach last summer.
Jun 13, 2012 at 4:07 UTC
Jhoffman - seriously, i can't imagine travel (especially an airplane) with a laptop anymore. I'm perfectly comfortable reading books on my phone or kindle and listening to music or watching shows on either. My wife and daughter use the ipad. As hard as it for me to accept that i might not be able to do work while on vacation, i have become very good about leaving the laptop at home.
Jun 18, 2012 at 3:50 UTC
Watching people from away (not Mainers) bring expensive technology to the beach is as almost as much fun as watching the seagulls steal their lunch.
Sand gets into everything. People whose hands are damp with corrosive salty water, and no stable surfaces in sight. The beach and tech do not mix.
Jun 19, 2012 at 6:56 UTC
I'm sorry but the best tech for the beach is no tech. You are on a vacation, relax have a BIG drink and get a tan.
Unplugging is a nice change of pace. Have your kids unplug too.
CAUTION!!! They might have to use their imagination though.

Incredible. As soon as I saw the heading, I thought, tablet or smartphone. They are made for the beach - no moving parts, no keyboard to get sand in, and less ports for the same reason. But for some reason, MS forgot to mention the tablet....
Not that I would take any tech down the beach... maybe a snorkel, and maybe a watch, certainly a towel and a frisbee.

About: St Mary's Hospital (London) St Mary's Hospital (London) London W2 1NY
Posted by Anonymous
I called this department at 12.30 to report a needle stick injury and was aked for my details. I was told a nurse will call me back within 1 hr. By 2.15 pm I was calling the hopital only to be told a nurse will call me back. By 6.30 I had called many times now i was getting the ans machine where i left my details. The whole night I couldn't sleep with worry. I Visited my Gp the next morning having to take time off work, he stated I should have been called back and should have been invited to do test. within a certain time period. I called again at 09.30 to again get an ans machine again i left a message. Finally got through explained my frustration and upset to be told that the department was very busy and that they were in meetings, and although the message had been sent to a nurse no_one returned my call. The sad thing was after speaking to a anurse was suggested I had nothing to worry about no blood samples were requested bar 1 which was to saty in the labs for 2 yrs. I also explained my health conditions which were brushed off stating that has nothing to do with the injury?? After along conversation and a few tears later was told the likely hood of contracting was 0. Even though i have no immune system and where the needle came from is unknown. This cannot be correct. Thankfully My surgery did all the relevant samples and now have to repeat in 3 mths time. I'm sure all will be ok but really do they think people don't have worries or concerns. I will make a formal complaint and hopefully stop anyone who has to deal with this department to get the correct information. I have very little faith in this department and sorry that ST Charles no longer do this service in 7 years never have i experienced anxiety of frustration on this level.

The following U.S. Pat. applications, filed concurrently or otherwise copending, are assigned to the assignee hereof and contain subject matter related, in certain respect, to the subject matter of the present application.
Ser. No. 09/657,215, filed 7 Sep. 2000, entitled "System and Method for Clustering Servers for Performance and Load Balancing",
The above-identified patent applications are incorporated herein by reference.
This invention pertains to a procurement and accounting system. More particularly, it relates to a system for preparing user profiles for customer company employees authorized to access an enterprise procurement and requisition system.
A requisition and catalog (RCW) system for access via the web and deployed to customers of an enterprise requires visibility to all of the authorized users. The RCW system requires for each authorized user his name, employee number, address (default ship to address for procured goods and services), and E-mail address. Previously, this information was gathered from various sources, a complex and time consuming process.
The enterprise procurement services system, such as the SAP system, and RCW system further require for each such user a company code and a plant code. SAP is a procurement engine used by the an enterprise to satisfy the procurement requirements of a customer company. These codes are configuration entities in SAP, and unknown to the authorized users. There is required a system and method for collecting authorized user identification data and corresponding codes before the user can be permitted to log on to the RCW system to submit a purchase requisition.
A most difficult problem facing such an enterprise is helping customer companies provide such data about its employees. The system and method provided for doing so must be easy for a user requester to use, isolating him from technicalities of SAP or other such back end engines.
Further, such a system must make provision for updating the user profile if an employee transfers to a new company within a company group, or to a new plant location.
It is an object of the invention to provide an improved system and method for creating user profiles.
It is a further object of the invention to provide a system and method for creating user profiles which is easy to use by a prospective requisition requester.
It is a further object of the invention to provide a system and method for authorizing access to a requisition and catalog system by an employee of a company within a company group for which an enterprise provides procurement services.
It is a further object of the invention to provide an improved system and method for reconfiguring a user profile when that user changes company location.
A system and method for creating a user profile for a user authorized by a customer company to access services provided by an enterprise, the method including the steps of preparing for each new user a profile entry including a user identifier and company group identifier; responsive to access by an authorized user, obtaining a corresponding profile entry; responsive to the profile entry not including company code and location indicia, displaying to user descriptions of locations for the company group; and responsive to user selection of a location description, populating to the profile entry the corresponding company code and location code.
In accordance with an aspect of the invention, there is provided a computer program product configured to be operable to creating a user profile for a user authorized by a customer company to access services provided by an enterprise.
Other features and advantages of this invention will become apparent from the following detailed description of the presently preferred embodiment of the invention, taken in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.
In accordance with the preferred embodiment of the invention, an enterprise provides procurement services to a plurality of customer companies organized in company groups, each company group including one or more related companies which use the same accounting codes and procedures.
Referring to
Connected to an RCW web server 390 deployed to customer companies through extra net 394 is a browser operable by a user for accessing a catalog (not shown) maintained by the enterprise, and for submitting to the enterprise requisitions for purchase of commodities and services against the accounts of a customer company. In exemplary embodiment, extra net 394 may be a secure network, such as a frame relay network connection, or a secure protocol on the world wide web.
To support procurement services for a plurality of users from different companies, the enterprise RCW system requires visibility to all of the users, and requires for each user his name, employee number, address (default ship to address for procured goods and services), E-mail address, and a SAP company code and plant code, which are configuration entities in SAP.
In operation, by way of overview, the creation and maintenance of the user profile is accomplished according company groupings: these are titles of corporations, and each grouping may have many company codes (a company grouping is a legal entity with its own requirements). Company name is passed in a human resource file or interface, to which a company grouping code is added. That data is loaded into employee staging tables of RCW. The process then looks for new employees, builds an employee profile which includes company code and group code Originally blank, then filled out using tables of grouping, company code, plant code, description). A pop down menu advises a new person to select a location, and from that the employee profile is built.
In step 60, on a periodic basis, customer companies provides an HR file containing a list of all employees that are authorized to use RCW with a company grouping ID in a company code field. Hub server 52 merges these HR files 59, 59A into a company group HR file 370 which, in step 70, it transmits through fire wall 372 to application server 376 where it is stored in company group HR file 374.
In step 401, staging table build application reads file 374 and in step 402 moves it to staging table 380 in database server 388. At this point, company group HR file 374 includes an entry for each person authorized by companies within a company group, and that entry includes the information available from the customer companies but not other information, such as company code and location code, required by servers 390, 376 and the SAP system and unavailable from the company HR files 59, 59A.
In step 403, new employee profile build application reads from staging table 380 the authorized users and in step 404 adds to user profile table 384 an entry for each new user. At this point, user profile table includes an entry for all authorized users for a company grouping, but critical information (company code and location code) is missing for newly authorized (or changed) users.
Responsive to a request received at web server 390 from requester browser 46 to enter a transaction on behalf of a user, such as accessing a catalog and submitting a requisition for a commodity or service, in step 407 requisition application 392 accesses user profile table 384 to obtain the user's profile. It determines if the user profile for the user has SAP company code and plant code entries, and if not, executes a new user procedure to complete the preparation of the user profile.
In step 409, for a new user, application 392 accesses plant code table 386. Plant code table 386 includes a table including a plurality of entries, each entry including company group code, company code, and location code fields and a description which is meaningful to prospective users. Each company group code may apply to a plurality of company codes, and each company code to a plurality of location codes. From plant code table 386, requisition application 392 populates in step 408 at browser 46 a pop-down list 396 which includes each combination of company code, location code and description for the user's company group. (The user's company group is input from browser 46 when the user logs on to web server 390.)
The user selects from the pop-down list 396 the location at which he works, which in step 406 is sent back to application 392. In step 410, application 392 populates the user profile entry in user profile table 384 for this user with the company code and location code corresponding to the description at pop-down list 396 selected by the user. This completes the user profile entry for this user, who no longer is a new user and may now proceed to access the financial services provided by the enterprise for the company group of which he is an authorized user.
If an employee transfers, that is nicely handled by making the person look like a new employee when, in steps 60 and 70 his profile data is submitted to application server 376, which will trigger the above process for updating the entry for the user in user profile table 384.
It is an advantage of the invention that there is provided an improved system and method for creating user profiles.
It is a further advantage of the invention that there is provided a system and method for creating user profiles which is easy to use by a prospective requisition requester.
It is a further advantage of the invention that there is provided a system and method for authorizing access to a requisition and catalog system by an employee of a company within a company group for which an enterprise provides procurement services.
It is a further advantage of the invention that there is provided an improved system and method for reconfiguring a user profile when that user changes company location.
It will be appreciated that, although specific embodiments of the invention have been described herein for purposes of illustration, various modifications may be made without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention. In particular, it is within the scope of the invention to provide a computer program product or program element, or a program storage or memory device such as a solid or fluid transmission medium, magnetic or optical wire, tape or disc, or the like, for storing signals readable by a machine, for controlling the operation of a computer according to the method of the invention and/or to structure its components in accordance with the system of the invention.
Further, each step of the method may be executed on any general computer, such as an IBM System 390, AS/400, PC or the like and pursuant to one or more, or a part of one or more, program elements, modules or objects generated from any programming language, such as C++, Java, P1/1, Fortran or the like. And still further, each said step, or a file or object or the like implementing each said step, may be executed by special purpose hardware or a circuit module designed for that purpose.
Accordingly, the scope of protection of this invention is limited only by the following claims and their equivalents.

A year ago today, I was finally giving up my status as a Anonymous user and creating an account on Wikia. I had a name in mind, that was "Metlman13"
That was a year ago. Here I am, 365 days later and 1,200 edits later. What have I learned about Wikia and this wiki in general? Well, here's 20 things I've learned:
2. WHISKEY35 is an omiscient god that only appears to users when they do not liscense their images.
3. Smuff, N7, Callofduty4 and Azuris are all nubs.
4. Jar teh marksman, Diegox223, FireBird- and Xd1358 (somewhat) are all pro.
5. Anons generally make trolling or idiotic comments.
6. My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic is pro. Jar was the one who turned me into a brony.
7. Many of the big editors here are British.
8. I'm a troll.
9. Smuff generally has negative things to say about me.
10. N7 is Forever Alone (and an 8-year old that enjoys boobies).
11. Callofduty4 will always have an intimidating Fluttershy avatar.
12. No matter what MoozipanCheese says, he will never make a 100 things I hate about Black Ops video.
13. AwesomeSauce360 is epic by default.
14. iiii i i i is the greatest troll ever.
15. Sp3c is a nub.
16. Generally all the admins are nubs.
17. Nearly every editor here uses blogs and chat.
18. The only people that use IRC are admins.
19. There will never be a chat poker table (gggggrrrrrrr...).
20. Fanboys are douchebags.
What do you think of this list? Leave a comment below.
Oh, and also:
21. FSO will be epic forever.

The exterior styling of the 2009 Saab 9-7X has its highs and lows, and reviews read by TheCarConnection.com are largely split.
Taking a stance firmly against the exterior of the Saab 9-7X is ForbesAutos, which advises viewers to look elsewhere if they think "slapping a Saab badge on a GM truck is a bad idea." While the criticisms from ForbesAutos have some basis in reality, Kelley Blue Book counters by saying that "given that most of its exterior panels are borrowed from its domestic-branded cousins, Saab's designers did an excellent job of giving the 9-7X its own identity," and that they successfully managed to create an SUV that is "far sportier and more sophisticated than any of the vehicles with which it shares so much." From the front, the 2009 Saab 9-7X definitely looks the part of a refined, upscale Saab vehicle, but in profile, it is unremarkable. Car and Driver doesn't see anything stylistically special in the 9-7X Saab, claiming that it is "a Chevy TrailBlazer with only slightly more-becoming clothes." Cars.com is indecisive, split between the Saab's "sleek styling" and the fact that it seems like "an archetype of yesterday's midsize SUV...inefficient and rough around the edges."
The interior scores higher than that of some other Saab vehicles, notably the 9-2X, and Kelley Blue Book feels that "contrast stitching, wood-like trim and familiar air vents help further differentiate the 9-7X as a premium European-like vehicle." ConsumerGuide adds that "controls are clear and handy, though adjusting the low-mounted climate system demands a long look away from the road." Edmunds says, "Drivers who have piloted other Saabs and don't look too closely will feel comfortable behind the wheel of the 9-7X." For those who decide to look closely, though, ConsumerGuide points out that "some elements retain the cheap plastic feel of TrailBlazer and Envoy."

The Summer of Century Rides
Aug 24
It's been a long season for me–my first race was Rev 3 Costa Rica back in March and I've done races in May (Mt. Rainier duathlon), June (Honu 70.3), July (Rev 3 Portland), and am currently sitting on my ass waiting for Sunday to roll around so I can cap off my triathlon season with Ironman Canada. Several months of training means several months of riding, and this year Teresa seemed especially intent on destroying my nethers by assigning me a stupid amount of century rides. Here's a rundown of the 100+ mile rides I've done this year: 1. Flying Wheels Flat Tires: 1 (me) Got lost? No Bonk Factor: 4/5 I already wrote about this ride, so I'll just reiterate again how crappy it was. Of all the centuries I did this year, I think this one was the hardest–it was just one of those days where nothing really went right. It was kind of cold out, I got a flat tire, rode by myself for a bit until I caught up with my teammates, and struggled in the back stretch of the course. The highlight of that day was getting cookies from Alley for giving her husband Bill (one of my teammates) a ride home (yaay, cookies). Also, the team camaraderie made me feel all warm and fuzzy inside, so at least we all suffered together. All in all though, it was a tough day, moreso mentally than physically, but isn't that usually the case with endurance training? 2. Coeur d'Alene Ride Flat Tires: 1 (Coach T) Got Lost? No Bonk Factor: 3/5, then 5/5 This was the glorious ride where Jason's deaf dad shot down a hill and forced me to chase after him. The workout after that was kind of ball-kicky since I was riding with three people who were all way faster than me. Teresa got a flat tire but we managed to stay on course (we rode the old Ironman Coeur d'Alene course, which I enjoy 152% more than the new course). I felt alright but a little tired from chasing after Team Fast for a few hours, but after a long break where the group hit up the Ironman expo area for...Read More

|Facing elections in Venezuela's new normal, opposition asks: Do we want in? -
Since April, Venezuela's opposition coalition seemed to be gaining the kind of support and momentum it was long criticized for lacking. Its calls for peaceful protests and boycotts were met by a broad, consistent turnout, and an unofficial referendum it organized in July led more than 7 million Venezuelans at home and abroad to condemn the increasingly authoritarian moves of President Nicolás Maduro's government. The coalition was making powerful promises, like plans to set up a parallel government if President Maduro moved forward with a July 30th vote to create a Constituent Assembly.
|Fallout from modern protests: naming and shaming online -
When hundreds of white supremacists rallied in Charlottesville, Va., last weekend in their largest public appearance in decades, it put faces to ideologies that have become increasingly high-profile over the past year. In response to the rally – which descended into violence in clashes with counter-protesters that left 19 injured and one counter-protester, Heather Heyer, dead – various online crowdsourced campaigns have been trying to publicly shame and punish individual protesters. Some observers have long-criticized such online shaming campaigns as little more than mistake-prone mob vigilantism energized by social media.

Russian critics have long worried about the propensity of the country's communications watchdog, Roskomnadzor (RKZ), to cast an overly wide net in censoring "extremist" content on the internet. "This is one of the few times when we can feel like RKZ's intervention is totally warranted," says Alexey Kovalev, a blogger and media critic.

Stress is your body's response to events that make you feel threatened. When you sense danger—whether real or imagined—the body's defenses are activated in a rapid, automatic response known as the "fight or flight" reaction, or the stress response. During this time, your body releases stress hormones called cortisol and adrenaline, which cause your heart to beat faster, your muscles to tighten, your blood pressure to rise, your breathing to quicken, and your senses to become sharper, all in order to prepare you to either fight or flee from the danger at hand. Some stress is good, for example, when the car in front of you stops unexpectedly, and you instinctively slam on the brakes to avoid an accident. But when stress starts to occur without direction, it can become a serious problem for both your physical and psychological health.
Unfortunately for us, stress can be caused by a number of factors. Chemical stress (such as diet), emotional stress (such as loss of a loved one, nervousness, etc.), mental stress (negative outlooks, racing thoughts), and physical stress can all take a toll on our bodies and our minds. However, identifying what causes our stress is the first step to managing that stress. So try keeping a journal of how you feel throughout the day; you may start to notice patterns in your behavior that lead to stress.

Stitch Exchange: Winter Solstice Cowl Collection - Twinkly Lights Cowl
Posted by Kristine Vejar on December 05, 2015 0 Comments
As Fall leans into Winter, and the trees' leaves fall to the ground, and fog rolls and nightfall lands earlier then the day before, and the night sky grows darker, and fills with sparkling, twinkly stars, suddenly the briskness of the air becomes to much for an exposed neck. Putting a cowl on to keep warm is a nice idea.
Winter, a time to gather with friends and family, to enjoy the warmth of the home, is a time for knitting, and in the spirit of keeping warm, to knit for others. Cowls are easy to knit and are a thoughtful gift.
The Winter Solstice Collection I is comprised of three cowl patterns: Twinkle Lights, Nightfall, Evening Fog.
The cold weather at this time of year is endlessly inspiring when setting out to design knitwear. At Verb, we encounter many people who desire to knit a gift, though may not have knit for some time.A few years ago, I had an idea for a cowl which would be knit out of chunky yarn so it could be knit fast, and would use two colors of yarn to keep the eye entertained. I imagined a gradient. I explained this idea to Huelo Dunn, then an employee at Verb, now a knitwear designer living in Bulgaria, and she helped to create this amazing design. Since the first design, I have added dimensions, gauge, and a second size. Inspired by the Twinkle Lights pattern, Sarah and I created Nightfall and Evening Fog.
All three patterns are united by the same seed stitch pattern and use multiple skeins of yarns in multiple colors to create gradients of differing proportions. The interplay between the slightly nubby seed stitch pattern and the shift in colors, from one skein to the next, makes this series of patterns interesting to knit with endless possibilities for color.
Today, we are sharing The Twinkle Lights cowl. Stay tuned for the release of the other two cowl patterns.
Originally created with the help of Huelo Dunn for A Verb for Keeping Warm
Knit using chunky-weight yarn, this cowl knits up fast. This cowl comes in two sizes. Knit the small size, and you will have enough yarn left over to knit a second one! Knit the larger size and enjoy the extra warmth! Knit out of Madelinetosh Chunky, this yarn makes great gift yarn. It is machine-washable and available in a wide array of colors, from vibrant jewel tones to gentle neutrals. Quince & Co. Osprey is another great yarn option for this cowl, is made from US wool, and is also available in a wide range of colors.
Small (Medium):
Circumference: 23" (46")
Height: 8.5" (8.5")
Madelinetosh Tosh Chunky (100% superwash merino; 165 yards, approx. 100g):
Color A: 1 skein Thunderstorm
Color B: 1 skein Astrid Grey
In seed stitch: 14 stitches and 30 rounds = 4"
One 16" US #9 circular (One 24" US #9 circular)
Or necessary sized needle to obtain gauge
stitch marker
tapestry needle
Using long-tail method, CO 83 (161) stitches with Color A. Place marker and join in the round, being careful not to twist.
Begin seed stitch pattern:
Rnd 1: (K1, P1) to last stitch, K1
Rnd 2: (P1, K1) to last stitch, P1
Continue in seed stitch, using Color A, for a total of 10 rounds.
Rnd 11: With Color B, (K1, P1) to last stitch, K1
Rnd 12: With Color A, (P1, K1) to last stitch, P1
Continue in seed stitch, switching colors each round, for a total of 10 rounds, ending after a round of Color A. Break Color A after round 20.
Continue working in seed stitch in Color B, for a total of 20 rounds.
Rnd 41: With Color A, (K1, P1) to last stitch, K1
Rnd 42: With Color B, (P1, K1) to last stitch, P1
Continue in seed stitch, switching colors each round, for a total of 10 rounds, ending after a round of Color B. Break Color B after round 50.
Continue in seed stitch, using Color A, for a total of 10 rounds.
Finish with Elizabeth Zimmermann's Sewn Bind-Off for a nice clean effect.
Weave in ends, block lightly and give with love. Or keep it, what the heck.

Preliminary Injunction Granted on BLM Hydraulic Fracturing Rule
We are overjoyed that today U.S. District Court of Wyoming Judge Scott W. Skavdahl granted a preliminary injunction of the Bureau of Land Management's (BLM) hydraulic fracturing rule, finding that, "Congress has not authorized or delegated to the BLM authority to regulate hydraulic fracturing…" Judge Skavdahl found not only that the Independent Petroleum Association of America (IPAA) and Western Energy Alliance are likely to prevail in their challenge to the rule as arbitrary and capricious, but also that the states of Colorado, North Dakota, Utah and Wyoming and the Ute Tribe showed that BLM had exceeded its authority.
The judge found the state petitioners' arguments compelling, that Congress has indeed not given BLM the authority to regulate hydraulic fracturing. He also agreed with IPAA and Western Energy Alliance that BLM has failed to justify the rule; BLM could point to no risk from fracking that is not already being managed successfully by the states, or demonstrate that its rule will deliver any environmental benefit not already provided by the states.
We are finally getting relief from the courts regarding the regulatory overreach of the Obama Administration. Following on the heels of the U.S. District Court of North Dakota's rebuke of the Waters of the U.S. rule, we hope BLM, EPA and other agencies that are rushing to implement even more regulation on the very businesses that create jobs will pause and actually follow the law and regulatory procedure. The law and separation of powers aren't a relic of the Constitution that can simply be circumvented by federal agencies; they are there to ensure the government acts in a way that benefits the American people.
Fossil Fuel Free Week is Here!
Fossil Fuel Free Week is here, and we've challenged the public to fully experience the life environmentalists and policymakers promote through protests, social media campaigns and overreaching regulations that squeeze out production. Imagine not being able to take any means of transportation, use a smartphone, enjoy a beer or take basic medications–that's the reality of life without fossil fuels that's actively promoted by activists.
Take for example the 400 groups that organized in front of the White House a few weeks ago calling on President Obama to keep fossil fuels in the ground. In recent months we've also witnessed numerous anti-fracking rallies, demonstrations against Keystone XL and other pipelines and rail transport, the divestiture movement, and kayaktivists against arctic drilling.
We created the Fossil Fuel Free Challenge to show that oil and natural gas products are not easily dispensable. In fact, fossil fuels make modern living possible. They power our economy and provide the basic feedstock used to manufacture smartphones, clothing and medicine and make our world safer, healthier and more convenient.
Learn more at www.FFFChallenge.com. Each day this week, visit the site for details on how attempting to live free of fossil fuels in reality means forgoing the basics of daily life.

Grimsby extend loan duo's stay
By Mark Buckingham
Last Updated: 01/01/70 1:00am
The pair have already spent a month at Blundell Park and have impressed with the First Division strugglers.
Oster returned to his former stamping ground from Sunderland and has scored two goals in five appearances.
Middlesbrough defender Gavin has also had five outings for The Mariners as the Irishman enjoys regular first team football.
Both players will stay at the club until the advent of January, although Gavin will not be permitted to play in the FA Cup as Middlesbrough do not want him cup-tied.
Meanwhile, Grimsby have wrapped up the signing of midfielder George Santos after his previous short-term deal expired.

My assignment in this chapter is to bring to your attention some features of the pathophysiology of functional headaches which may be useful in planning their management by behavioral techniques. Head pain may occur not only when the head is traumatized or inflamed or distorted by tumor but also when its complicated machinery strains to meet overwhelming mental and emotional distress. It is this "cranial angina" which behavioral therapy may be able to modify, even as help with changes in lifestyle and physical exertion may aid the Type A man with "angina of the heart." The brain really is, amongst its many other functions, the health care system or behavioral therapist for the body. But, as you all know, even behavioral therapists can get tired or have difficult, maybe even painful days.

Taylor, C. Barr
Behavior, at long last, may be taking its proper place in Western medicine. The study of behavior in medicine has even spawned a new discipline, sometimes called behavioral medicine. In the broadest sense, behavioral medicine refers to the application of behavioral science knowledge and techniques to the understanding of physical health and illness and to prevention, diagnosis, treatment, and rehabilitation. In this chapter, we discuss behavioral medicine only in terms of the application of behavioral therapy and applied analysis to these same areas. An astonishing number of studies have been published in this area, mostly in the past 10 years, and the numbers are increasing exponentially.

This paper considers the use of biofeedback methods for the treatment of migraine headache. The incidence of headache as a clinical problem is first examined. The pathophysiological basis of migraine and the preferred methods of treatment are presented. Next, basic principles of controlled treatment evaluation are discussed. Two biofeedback procedures for the treatment of migraine are then considered: hand warming and cephalic pulse amplitude reduction. The therapeutic rationale for each treatment is presented and data from all relevant controlled experiments are summarized. It is concluded that there is no evidence for specific effects of learned hand warming, but that a specific component might be present for learned cephalic vasoconstriction.

Biofeedback is one of the major treatment technologies in behavioral medicine. In fact, the initial use of the term behavioral medicine was in reference to the use of biofeedback in the treatment of medical disorders (Birk, 1973). Although many other techniques have been used in the behavioral treatment of numerous disorders, a large proportion of the behavioral medicine literature involves biofeedback. In fact, previous reviews of the literature of behavioral medicine have separated the treatment literature into biofeedback (Blanchard & Epstein, 1977) and non-biofeedback (Epstein, Katz, & Zlutnick, 1979) studies.

The themes of this chapter are that (1) hypnosuggestive procedures can be effective in reducing pain and (2) these procedures should be incorporated into the armamentarium of all professionals who treat pain. I will first summarize representative studies that illustrate how hypnosuggestive procedures can be used and how effective they can be in the alleviation of surgical and postsurgical pain, back pain, headaches and migraine, cancer pain, burn pain, dental pain, and childbirth pain. Throughout this review, I will try to be directly helpful to health professionals by presenting verbatim examples of hypnosuggestive procedures that can be useful in treating acute and chronic pain.

Long-term follow-up evidence for biofeedback treatment of headaches, Raynaud's disease, essential hypertension, and the irritable bowel syndrome was reviewed. Acknowledging the difficulties with cross-study comparisons, the following general success rate were determined: primary idiopathic Raynaud's disease—70%, or better; vascular headache—70%, or better; mixed headache—about 60%; and muscle contraction headache—50%, or less. With relatively fewer patients, successful outcomes with the irritable bowel syndrome and secondary Raynaud's phenomenon were roughly 60% and 40%, respectively. Few cases of clinically significant long-term decreases in diastolic blood pressure were demonstrated; however, the need for medication was reduced or eliminated in some patients. There were indications that biofeedback combined with psychotherapy resulted in highest success rates. No differences were found in effectiveness between biofeedback, other relaxation techniques, and biofeedback in combination with relaxation techniques—all had essentially comparable rates of success. No correlations between physiological and psychological measures of condition at follow-up were reported. Implications and interpretations of these findings are discussed.

Eleven patients with episodic cluster headache were assessed and offered a treatment program consisting of 8 weeks of training in abbreviated progressive relaxation followed by 12 sessions of thermal biofeedback. Four dropped out before treatment began. Of the seven who completed the full treatment regimen, three (27% of initial sample) reported some degree of improvement when their next cluster bout occurred. In no one was the disorder eliminated.

The word stress is a Latin derivative which has existed in the English language for centuries. Originally, it denoted hardship or adversity. Later, stress was used to denote a "force, pressure, strain or strong effort" applied to an object or person including his "organs or mental powers" (Hinkle, 1974b; Onions, 1933). In the biological sciences, the term stress has a connotative rather than a denotative function, suggesting, on the one hand, external stimulus characteristics which tend to upset the "milieu interieur" of the organism and, on the other, characteristics of the organism's response to such stimulus characteristics. Stressful stimuli include mechanical and chemical trauma, toxins, bacterial and viral pathogens, loud noises, monotonous work, and threats to or changes in social relationships. The general adaptation syndrome exemplifies organismic responses which qualify as stress (Selye, 1946, 1976). This syndrome refers to a sequence of nonspecific bodily reactions which occur in response to generalized noxious stimuli. The development of the syndrome depends on the functional integrity of the pituitary and adrenal glands and is characterized by the secretion of adrenalin, noroadrenalin, and adrenocortical hormones.
Robinow, Meinhard
Most products of food metabolism have adverse effects on health if their concentrations in blood and extra- and intracellular fluids exceed narrow physiologic limits. Homeostasis, the maintenance of normal concentrations, is achieved by a vast number of genetically determined enzymatic processes that regulate digestion, absorption, transport, intermediate metabolism, and excretion.

This report presents findings from a two-year follow-up of chronic tension headache sufferers treated either with stress-coping training (cognitive therapy, N = 11) or electromyographic biofeedback (N = 8). Clients who had received stress-coping training reported that two years following treatment they continued to use the coping strategies they had been taught, and daily headache recordings indicated they were still significantly improved ( p < .005). About one-half of the clients treated with biofeedback were substantially improved following treatment, with the remaining clients showing minor improvements or increases in headache symptoms. These mixed outcomes were still evident at two-year follow-up, with three of four clients maintaining improvements and the remaining clients showing, at best, minor reductions in headache symptoms. This longterm maintenance of treatment gains following stress-coping training suggests that cognitive therapy deserves the increased attention of investigators interested in the long-term maintenance of therapeutic gains.

Juan Villalonga believes that the best players in the world should be playing for Real Madrid and plans to reintroduce the Galácticos scheme if he wins the club presidency next year.
Under Pérez, Madrid signed such star names as Luis Figo, Zinedine Zidane and Ronaldo and Villalonga believes that Madrid should once again be looking to sign stars of a similar stature.
"Players such as Lionel Messi, Cristiano Ronaldo or Kaká should be at Real Madrid," he told COPE radio. "I will copy the model that Florentino used.
"I have called Florentino and I expressed my desire to stand and use his ideas, but it will be on my own terms.
"I have a lot of respect and admiration for Florentino and I think we should continue the good work that he did."
While Pérez coined the phrase Zidanes and Pavónes to describe his idea of combining star names with homegrown players, Villalonga has tweaked that idea.
"If I do win then I would like to introduce a system of Zidanes and Butragueños. We have to call upon the talent from the youth teams and combine them with world class players," he added.
