Heart disease is often thought of as a man's problem, but did you know that heart disease is the No. 1 killer of women in the United States? It causes 1 in 3 deaths among women each year. By comparison, breast cancer causes 1 in 31 deaths annually. Heart disease actually kills more women than all cancers combined.
Dr. Kathy Magliato, a cardiothoracic surgeon at Saint John's Health Center in Los Angeles, put it very succinctly: "The most common way women present with heart disease is dead, dead on arrival. Women tend to downplay their symptoms, and they tend to wait longer to come to the hospital, and that's why they die at home."[1]
Since February is American Heart Month, it's a great time to focus on the women who are the heart of our families – our grandmothers, mothers, sisters and daughters.
The way women get heart disease differs somewhat from men, so the symptoms we experience are different as well. For women, heart disease often occurs at the level of the tiny vessels that supply the blood to the heart. Men, on the other hand, typically get blockages in the larger blood vessels of the heart.
Often when we think of someone suffering a heart attack, we imagine an individual clutching his or her chest in pain. In reality, only half the women who have a heart attack have chest pain. Women are more likely than men to have heart attack symptoms not directly related to chest pain, including fatigue, shortness of breath, indigestion or nausea, jaw or throat pain, and arm pain, especially in the left arm.
Since these symptoms can easily masquerade as other health issues, it's important to understand your risk factors and have a strong partnership with your doctor. Risk factors for heart disease include high blood pressure, high cholesterol, diabetes, smoking, second hand smoke, obesity, being physically inactive, mental stress and depression, a family history of early heart disease, birth control pills and age.
While women are afforded some degree of protection compared to men prior to menopause, age becomes a risk factor at 55. After menopause, women are more apt to get heart disease, in part because their body's production of estrogen drops.
As women, we often put off taking care of ourselves because we're busy taking care of everyone else, but doing so can get you into serious heart trouble. The most generous thing you can do for yourself, and for those who love you, is to take action to protect your heart and lower your risks. Here are a few steps that can make a difference:
You should also take advantage of any programs your insurer offers to help you get on the road to better health. For example, if you are a member of Blue Cross of Northeastern Pennsylvania, you have full access to our Blue Health Solutions program, which offers tools and support in all areas of health management, including reducing your risks for heart disease.
Most importantly, if you know you are high risk – and be aware that many women have at least one risk factor – and you experience the symptoms described above, don't wait. Listen to your body and see a doctor.
February is the month when we focus on our heart, our most vital organ that beats an average of 100,000 times each day. By taking good care of your heart, you're making an investment in your health, in your family and in your future. Be there to take care of yourself and your loved ones this February and many more to come.

I'd love for the D800 to become reality, but I hope the price doesn't kick me in the face.
praying for 3000$ or lower :) if any higher, why not jump to a D4!?
where there's smoke there's forum fire
Good point. Would this be overkill if I am upgrading from my D90?
I'd like them to start shipping what they announced half a year ago... How many months do we still have to wait for the 85G and the 35G?
I'd prefer a 70mm AFS built like the 35DX.
The other lense I really want is a 24mm DX AFS, again like the 35mm.
On aperture side, 1.8 would be good but the bokeh is more important.
I'd buy these lenses if they're priced $400 or less.
I think it is very unlikely that Nikon would make a 70mm DX prime, since they already make an 85mm DX prime.
A 16mm F2.8G DX, or 8mm F2.8G DX would be nice to have (12 or 24mm equivalent and non fisheye thanks!) and would be on the top of my list.
My interest is a lense ideal for portraiture indoor and street scenes on the DX sensor, not a DX lense for the sake of DX. I think the 85/1.8D is not optimal for portraits on DX-- I have a friend with 85/1.4 who rarely uses that lense for the same reason. It's also not AF-S so for fast moving objects, something as quick as the 35/1.8 would be a godsend.
Voightlander-Cosina has a 58mm lense that looks somewhat promising for $400, but it's manual focus which restricts it's application, so if Nikon made a plastic housing AFS lense like the 35 but 70mm (a little further from the 50mm) there would be a cult following (if it had great bokeh). If these lenses have a little correctable distortion so it's not "pro" that's fine.
The 85mm F3.5G VR is AF-S as is the 85mm F1.4G.
If you want 16/2.8, you should check out the Tokina 11-16.
It's not VERY big.
For tourism, I plan to carry just it, the 35, and a 105.
For indoors it'd be nice to carry just a 24 or a 24 and a 70 (the 2 lenses I am dreaming of).
I don't like zooms very much, I've sold most of mine.
I would like nikon to consider their pro dslr's might want to expand. Maybe a d800 or d4. I just want to see what direction nikon is heading with their dslr's.
One thing I miss from the point and shoot days even more than the light weight or being pocketsized, an automatic lens cover/cap. I simply cant be as quick on the draw fiddling with all these caps.
"I don't mean which lens, body or accessory you want or would like, I mean what do you want from them in general and as a company?"
I want them to advertise more. I see Canon ads frequently, but never Nikon. On the other hand their sales don't seem to be hurting, judging from the D7000 launch.
Taco, that's because Canon needs to advertise. Nikon does not. When was the last time you saw a commercial for Ferrari versus one for Toyota? Same thing.
What about our beloved Mr Kutcher? I think Nikon needs to redo their PR crap and make better ads and more collector goodies (and fire the idiot who inspected my D90). I couldn't find any more D3s caps on the ebay. Also it would be nice to see that 28-200 f2.8 sometime or some other innovative lens (or an update to a prime like the 135 f/2, 50mm f/1.2 or something along those lines). Why are people crapping their pants for a 70-200mm f4 as there are 50 gazillion other nikkors that cover that range nicely AT f/4 or the not much different (on dx at least) f/5.6
Don't know about other parts of the world but you do see Nikon advertising here in the UK.
Jamie Oliver advertises the D3100, Robbie Williams advertises Coolpix and Nikon sponsor a tv show called Hollyoaks (a soap aimed at young adults).
Nikon and Canon are not the Ferraris of the camera world, Leica take that crown.
Leica isn't about performance. Leica would be more like a Rolls Royce.
What does that make hasselblad?
A Hummer perhaps?
I agree with the posters who see the need for a shift in emphasis to lenses targeting the prosumer. For example, it's sad that those of us who shoot wildlife, auto races, air shows and so forth have to look to third parties for affordable longer lenses. We are willing to sacrifice high speed, razor sharpness to the edges at maximum aperture, or size and weight that requires a pack mule... just try to nail the 300-500mm range with something that costs less than the price of a used car. I agree with the OP that asking for specific lenses is beyond the scope of his original question... but I think what I'm suggesting here is something more general, that Nikon pay a little more attention to those of us in the middle. Consumers and pros are both well-served by Nikon's product line, but serious photographers on restricted budgets could do with a bit more consideration.
Second, it would be nice if Nikon and Adobe could get together to improve file compatibility. I'd love it if you could open a RAW file in ACR, click on "As Shot," and see something that looks exactly like the camera's jpg. As is, ACR seems to be able to read certain embedded information, but other in-camera adjustments that are applied to the jpg remain invisible unless you open the RAW file in Nikon's software. Some sort of open standard would be nice. Granted, Photoshop's sharpening is not going to perfectly match Nikon's... and perhaps patents and licensing for proprietary processes like Active D-lighting would make my request a naive dream... but the OP asked the question so there it is.
Next, I'd like Nikon to work on their closeup gear... extension tubes and/or bellows with contacts, something that will take us beyond 1:1 while still supporting the camera body's electronics. How about a 'rack-less' bellows (or 'variable extension tube' if you prefer), built like an empty zoom lens? Too specific a request? OK, let's just say that I'd like to see Nikon apply the same forward thinking design to their closeup gear (which now seems rather out-dated) that they do to lenses and bodies.
Finally, I'd love to see Nikon incorporate sensor-shift image stabilization. Yes, there are times that lens stabilization works better... but I'd still like to have the option to use it with lenses that don't have their own stabilization. Nikon really has done the right thing in it's efforts to support our older lenses... adding AI lens coupling to the D7000 is a move I'd never expect to see from another manufacturer. So let's take it a step further ... in-camera IS would really breathe some new life into our older lenses and increase overall versatility. I have to admit to a certain amount of Pentax envy in regard to a friend who's got a K-7 and a collection of cherished vintage lenses... all of which are now image-stabilized.
Currently at Amazon, only one D300s left in stock!! COULD THIS BE?????
What I want from Nikon in 2011 is a new proline camera and a new speed light.
I know the D4 will have 240fps High Speed video probably 1080p with high ISO which will totally kill Cannon then rival RED at that point
Then I want a new speed light like the SB-900 with that incandescent filter gel similar to the sb-700 only thing that stops me from getting it is the lack of PC port to wire up my pocket Wizzard to it. But I absolutely love that filter
New flash plz and accessories.
Need to drop that new D4.
1. More fast, wide-angle, normal, and short-tele, FX lenses with VR. Or, in-body stabilization.
2. Expanded NPS seminar program, open to the public.
3. More aggressive industry involvement, product placement, brand evangelizing, etc.
4. T-shirts! Key fobs! Penlights! More fun Nikon swag, in general!
What do I want from them (not camera related)?
#1. Use that rather nice young lady we men have been drooling about from Glee for adverts. Dump all the other campaigns.
#2. Use a different P.R. company.
#3. Actually put stock into the retail channel that goes more than 5% of the way towards satisfying demand (and I mean more like 80%, not 10%). Nobody wants to put more out on day 1, as the pent up demand would get satisfied too quickly and the product would peak ab out week 2.
Oh all right... Camera lusts...

Production efficiency and excess supply
This paper demonstrates that intermediate goods should not be taxed even in the presence of dividend payments to households. We also find that optimal government policy in a second best world may include stockpiles of output—private supply exceeds private demand, and the government purchases the surplus. This may provide a possible explanation for some agricultural policies.

"Roger Waters: The Wall Live"
When: 8 p.m. May 13, Valley View Casino Center, 3500 Sports Arena Blvd.
Tickets: Sold out
Few rock bands have created music that transcends its time and place as successfully as Pink Floyd, let alone sustained that success for so long after ceasing to exist.
So let's extend a hearty San Diego welcome to Roger Waters. The former leader of Pink Floyd brings his "Roger Waters — The Wall Live" tour here for a sold-out May 13 show at Valley View Casino Center, which hosted a Pink Floyd concert in 1975.
The now-defunct band last played here in 1994 at what was then San Diego Jack Murphy Stadium, but minus Waters (who quit in the mid-1980s, then sued — unsuccessfully — to gain control of the group's name and music).
In the case of this pioneering English progressive-rock band's music, absence clearly makes the heart grow fonder. Pink Floyd's albums, now being rereleased with myriad bonus tracks, maintain their allure decades after being released. "The Wall," a provocative rock-opera/concept album, first appeared as a two-record set in 1979. It has since sold 23 million copies in the U.S. alone ("The Wall 2012 Immersion" box set includes six CDs and one DVD.)
Pink Floyd's original 1980/1981 "The Wall" tour was so ambitious (and costly) to mount, it was staged only in Los Angeles, New York, London and Dortmund, Germany. Waters revived "The Wall" in 2010, two years after the death of Pink Floyd keyboardist Rick Wright, and five years after the band's only full reunion show at the London Live 8 charity concert.
The 2010 and 2011 legs of "The Wall" tour drew 1.6 million-plus fans to more than 120 shows. What they experienced was as much an eye-popping, high-tech theatrical event as a concert, as befits an album that inspired a full-length feature film.
A key influence on Radiohead, Phish, My Chemical Romance and many other artists, Pink Floyd's music resonates strongly with longtime followers and recent converts. When Waters headlined the 2008 Coachella Valley Music & Arts Festival in Indio, tens of thousands of indie-rock and electronica fans sang along, word for word, to Pink Floyd classics.
Expect a similar response at the tour stop here, especially during "Another Brick in the Wall, Pt. 2" (with its anthem-like refrain: "We don't need no education / We don't need no thought control").
Waters' sold-out show here will be an intimate one, incidentally, at least compared with his May 19 date at the 93,607-capacity Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum (for which some tickets are still available).
Anoushka Shankar
Balboa Theatre, April 20
A longtime Encinitas resident who now lives in London with her husband and baby boy, budding sitar master Shankar is touring to promote her superb new album, "Traveller." It fuses Spanish flamenco with the Indian classical music traditions she learned from her legendary father, Ravi Shankar.
Sara Watkins
(anthologysd.com), May 2
A multiple-Grammy-winner as a member of the bluegrass-and-beyond trio Nickel Creek, San Diego's Watkins is now completing her second solo album, "Sun Midnight Sun." A stirring singer, violinist and songwriter, she's a treat in any musical setting.
Vicente Fernández
Cricket Wireless Amphitheatre, May 12
Expect an intensely emotional evening when Fernández, the long-reigning king of mariachi music, performs here as part of his farewell tour.
Kenny Barron
Athenaeum Jazz at Neuroscience Institute
(ljathenaeum.org), May 24
This exemplary jazz pianist was only a teen when he was hired, in 1962, to work with former San Diego sax icon James Moody. Fifty years later, Barron is becoming an icon himself.
Viejas Arena, June 14
Will this once seemingly invincible rock band's second reunion tour with original lead singer David Lee Roth deliver the goods? Or is this a final farewell? The group's new album is promising, but not a slam-dunk, so the proof will be delivered — we hope — on the concert stage.Copyright © 2017, The San Diego Union-Tribune


text: [Federal Register Volume 79, Number 42 (Tuesday, March 4, 2014)] [Rules and Regulations] [Pages 12049-12050] From the Federal Register Online via the Government Publishing Office [www.gpo.gov] [FR Doc No: 2014-04456] ----------------------------------------------------------------------- DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION Federal Aviation Administration 14 CFR Part 71 [Docket No. FAA-2013-0917; Airspace Docket No. 13-ACE-16] Amendment of Class D Airspace; St. Joseph, MO AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT. ACTION: Final rule. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- SUMMARY: This action amends Class D airspace at St. Joseph, MO. Additional controlled airspace is necessary to accommodate new Area Navigation (RNAV) Standard Instrument Approach Procedures at Rosecrans Municipal Airport. The FAA is taking this action to enhance the safety and management of Instrument Flight Rule (IFR) operations at the airport. DATES: Effective date: 0901 UTC, May 29, 2014. The Director of the Federal Register approves this incorporation by reference action under 1 CFR Part 51, subject to the annual revision of FAA Order 7400.9 and publication of conforming amendments. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Scott Enander, Central Service Center, Operations Support Group, Federal Aviation Administration, Southwest Region, 2601 Meacham Blvd., Fort Worth, TX 76137; telephone 817-321- 7716. [[Page 12050]] SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: History On December 9, 2013, the FAA published in the Federal Register a notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) to amend Class D airspace for the St. Joseph, MO, area, creating additional controlled airspace at Rosecrans Municipal Airport (78 FR 73749) Docket No. FAA-2013-0917. Interested parties were invited to participate in this rulemaking effort by submitting written comments on the proposal to the FAA. No comments were received. Class D airspace designations are published in paragraph 5000 of FAA Order 7400.9X dated August 7, 2013, and effective September 15, 2013, which is incorporated by reference in 14 CFR 71.1. The Class D airspace designations listed in this document will be published subsequently in the Order. The Rule This action amends Title 14 Code of Federal Regulations (14 CFR) Part 71 by amending Class D airspace at Rosecrans Municipal Airport, St. Joseph, MO, to contain aircraft executing new standard instrument approach procedures at the airport. Accordingly, additional segments will extend from the 4.3-mile radius of the airport to 4.9 miles northwest and 4.5 miles southeast of the airport, to retain the safety and management of IFR aircraft in Class D airspace to/from the en route environment. The FAA has determined that this regulation only involves an established body of technical regulations for which frequent and routine amendments are necessary to keep them operationally current. Therefore, this regulation: (1) Is not a ``significant regulatory action'' under Executive Order 12866; (2) is not a ``significant rule'' under DOT Regulatory Policies and Procedures (44 FR 11034; February 26, 1979); and (3) does not warrant preparation of a regulatory evaluation as the anticipated impact is so minimal. Since this is a routine matter that only affects air traffic procedures and air navigation, it is certified that this rule, when promulgated, does not have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities under the criteria of the Regulatory Flexibility Act. The FAA's authority to issue rules regarding aviation safety is found in Title 49 of the U.S. Code. Subtitle 1, Section 106, describes the authority of the FAA Administrator. Subtitle VII, Aviation Programs, describes in more detail the scope of the agency's authority. This rulemaking is promulgated under the authority described in Subtitle VII, Part A, Subpart I, Section 40103. Under that section, the FAA is charged with prescribing regulations to assign the use of airspace necessary to ensure the safety of aircraft and the efficient use of airspace. This regulation is within the scope of that authority as it amends controlled airspace at Rosecrans Municipal Airport, St. Joseph, MO. Environmental Review The FAA has determined that this action qualifies for categorical exclusion under the National Environmental Policy Act in accordance with FAA Order 1050.1E, ``Environmental Impacts: Policies and Procedures,'' paragraph 311a. This airspace action is not expected to cause any potentially significant environmental impacts, and no extraordinary circumstances exist that warrant preparation of an environmental assessment. List of Subjects in 14 CFR Part 71 Airspace, Incorporation by reference, Navigation (Air). Adoption of the Amendment In consideration of the foregoing, the Federal Aviation Administration amends 14 CFR Part 71 as follows: PART 71--DESIGNATION OF CLASS A, B, C, D, AND E AIRSPACE AREAS; AIR TRAFFIC SERVICE ROUTES; AND REPORTING POINTS 0 1. The authority citation for 14 CFR Part 71 continues to read as follows: Authority: 49 U.S.C. 106(g), 40103, 40113, 40120; E.O. 10854, 24 FR 9565, 3 CFR, 1959-1963 Comp., p. 389. Sec. 71.1 [Amended] 0 2. The incorporation by reference in 14 CFR 71.1 of the Federal Aviation Administration Order 7400.9X, Airspace Designations and Reporting Points, dated August 7, 2013, and effective September 15, 2013, is amended as follows: Paragraph 5000 Class D Airspace. * * * * * ACE MO D St. Joseph, MO [Amended] St. Joseph, Rosecrans Memorial Airport, MO (Lat. 39[deg]46'19'' N., long. 94[deg]54'35'' W.) That airspace extending upward from the surface to and including 3,300 feet MSL within a 4.3-mile radius of Rosecrans Memorial Airport, and within 1.2 miles each side of the 136[deg] bearing from the airport extending from the 4.3-mile radius to 4.5 miles southeast of the airport, and within 1.2 miles each side of the 316[deg] bearing from the airport extending from the 4.3-mile radius to 4.9 miles northwest of the airport. This Class D airspace area is effective during the specific dates and times established in advance by a Notice to Airmen. The effective date and time will thereafter be continuously published in the Airport/Facility Directory. Issued in Fort Worth, Texas, on February 10, 2014. Kent M. Wheeler, Manager, Operations Support Group, ATO Central Service Center. [FR Doc. 2014-04456 Filed 3-3-14; 8:45 am] BILLING CODE 4910-13-P

Suspected drunk and drugged driver crashes into pumpkin cart.
A Colden woman was arrested on Wednesday after allegedly upsetting a pumpkin cart in the yard of a Boston area home with her SUV. The cart – a haywagon filled with pumpkins for sale – reportedly was hit, along with a mailbox and fence, when Barbara J. Bender-Suto lost control of her Mercury Mountaineer on Route 391.
Bender-Suto, 52, was charged with felony DWI and DWAI-drugs, along with traffic violations.
Troopers were already on the lookout for her vehicle after witnesses had reported it was driving erratically when they found the SUV stopped and disabled on the shoulder of the road. It had apparently crossed into the northbound lane before swerving south and into the yard.
Troopers reported that Bender-Suto, 52 uninjured but admitted having taking prescription narcotics before driving. She was transported to ECMC and checked by the emergency room staff.

Unlike Ragini MMS 2, Hate Story 2 doesn't have a 'star' to grab eyeballs or attract attention instantaneously. Nor does it have the horror quotient to lure audiences. Besides, the film has been released during the holy month of Ramadan, when a big chunk of the movie-going audience stays away from cinemas. Additionally, Hate Story 2 has just one week to score big, since the keenly-awaited biggie Salman Khan's 'Kick' storms in next week. Despite so many limitations, Hate Story 2 has emerged triumphant with box office collections of Rs 15.85 crore in the opening weekend. While opening day box office collections of the film was Rs 5.46 crore, Saturday and Sunday followed with Rs 4.74 crore Rs 5.65 crore.
#HateStory2 Fri 5.46 cr, Sat 4.74 cr, Sun 5.65 cr. Total: ₹ 15.85 cr nett. India biz. EXCELLENT!— taran adarsh (@taran_adarsh) July 21, 2014
T-Series, the producers of Hate Story 2, are known to promote films aggressively. Recall the stupendous pre-release promotion of Aashiqui-2 and Yaariyan. The music company/producers ensured that the two films - the first starring relative newcomers, the other starring newcomers - were visible on all platforms of communication, prior to their release. That was one of the key reasons why the films in question opened to impressive numbers.
The tremendous start of Hate Story 2 caught everyone unaware. However, the strong merits ensured that the film was on firm footing not just on its opening day, but all through the weekend. Generally, this genre is known to perform better at single screens, but in this case, the numbers at plexes multiplied on Day 1 itself, with the film maintaining its pace all through the weekend.
With a fabulous weekend on hand, Hate Story 2 has already emerged a success story for its makers. T-Series made love stories (Aashiqui-2) a Super Hit and now, has made hate stories (Hate Story 2) a Smash Hit as well.
The other two films, Amit Sahni Ki List and Pizza 3D, had to struggle at ticket window to leave a mark, although the business did witness an upward trend. With Hate Story 2 walking away with a substantial share of movie-going audience and Humpty Sharma Ki Dulhania and the Marathi film Lai Bhaari maintaining rock-steady biz in Weekend 2, Amit Sahni Ki List and Pizza 3D were relegated to the back seat, despite positive reviews and good word of mouth coming their way.

Two Studies Identify Promising New Drug for IBD Patients
Contact: Michelle Brubaker
University of California - San Diego
2 studies identify potential new drug for Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis
Vedolizumab, a new intravenous antibody medication, has shown positive results for treating both Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis, according to researchers at the University of California San Diego, School of Medicine. The findings, published in two papers, will appear in the August 22 issue of theNew England Journal of Medicine (NEJM).
William Sandborn, MD, principal investigator of the Crohn's disease study, said the results offer new hope to the more than one million Americans who suffer from inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and do not respond to treatment. Both studies showed that the use of vedolizumab resulted in remission and discontinued use of prednisone, a common yet difficult to tolerate drug used to treat both diseases.
"The two trials showed highly encouraging results for patients suffering from moderate-to-severe Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis when conventional therapy such as steroids, immune suppressive drugs and anti-tumor necrosis factor (TNF) biologic drugs failed," said Sandborn, of the Division of Gastroenterology at UC San Diego School of Medicine and director of the Inflammatory Bowel Disease Center at UC San Diego Health System. "This is a disease modifying drug. In many cases of patients with ulcerative colitis, complete healing of the bowel was observed and maintained with continued use of vedolizumab."
Vedolizumab is targeted to disease within the digestive tract so other areas of the body remain unaffected. It blocks immune system cells that release proteins called cytokines that trigger inflammation, causing tissue damage and diarrhea to move into the small intestine and colon. The targeted nature of the medication helps reduce troublesome side effects such as weight gain, nausea and headaches caused by other treatment options. Current treatments such as steroids and immunosuppressive medications broadly suppress the immune system, which can also put the patient at risk for infections.
"Inflammatory bowel disease causes severe ongoing bouts of illness that adversely affect a patient's quality of life at home and work," said Sandborn. "These latest findings will potentially lead to a new drug therapy that will improve a patient's overall lifestyle."
Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis are forms of inflammatory autoimmune diseases, impacting the small intestine and colon. Clinical symptoms include abdominal pain, diarrhea, intestinal bleeding, fecal urgency and weight loss. Serious complications such as bowel obstruction, colon cancer, malnutrition and abscesses can also occur, resulting in hospitalization and the possible surgical removal of portions of the bowel and colon.
Eight hundred and ninety five patients were part of the ulcerative colitis trial conducted in 34 countries, and 1,115 patients were part of the Crohn's disease clinical trial conducted in 39 countries. Eligible patients for both trials were between 18 and 80-years-old and were treated for 52 weeks in the placebo-controlled studies. Benefits could be seen six weeks into the study.
Researchers who also participated in the Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis trials include: Brian G. Feagan, MD, Robarts Clinical Trials, Robarts Research Institute, and the Departments of Medicine and of Epidemiology and Biostatistics, University of Western Ontario, London; Paul Rutgeerts, MD, PhD, Katholieke Universiteit and University Hospital Gasthuisberg, Leuven, Belgium; Stephen Hanauer, MD, University of Chicago, Chicago; Jean-Frédéric Colombel, MD, Departement d'Hepato-gastroenterologie et Centre d'Investigations Cliniques, Centre Hospitalier Regional Universitaire de Lille, Universite Lille Nord de France, Lille, France; Bruce E. Sands, MD, Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai, New York; Milan Lukas, MD, PhD, General Faculty Hospital, Prague, Czech Republic; Richard N. Fedorak, MD, University of Alberta, Edmonton, AB; Scott Lee, MD, University of Washington, Seattle; Brian Bressler, MD, University of British Columbia, Vancouver; Gert Van Assche, MD, PhD, Katholieke Universiteit and University Hospital Gasthuisberg, Leuven, Belgium; Jeffrey Axler, MD, Toronto Digestive Disease Associates, University of Toronto, and Mount Sinai Hospital, Toronto; Hyo-Jong Kim, MD, PhD, Kyung Hee University Hospital, Seoul, South Korea; Silvio Danese, MD, PhD, Istituto Clinico Humanitas, Milan; Irving Fox, MD, Maria Rosario, PhD, Serap Sankoh, PhD, Jing Xu, PhD, Kristin Stephens, BA, Catherine Milch, MD, Asit Parikh, MD, PhD, and Tim Wyant, PhD, Millennium Pharmaceuticals, Cambridge, MA.
The study was supported by Takeda Pharmaceuticals, Inc.
The Department of Gastroenterology at UC San Diego Health System is nationally recognized for its innovative and comprehensive care of patients by a multidisciplinary team of specialists in gastroenterology, endoscopy, oncology, surgery, transplantation and radiology. The Inflammatory Bowel Disease Center is dedicated to diagnosing and treating people with IBD from around the world. The center's leadership in IBD medical research means patient access to clinical trials for the newest therapies and advanced surgical techniques for the treatment of this challenging condition.

Schanilec to host book signing
Local author and former West Fargo resident Ernest Schanilec will be hosting a book signing for his latest novel "Gray Riders II" on Thursday, Dec. 13, from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. at Red River Coffee, located in the Pioneer Center, 715 13th Ave. E.
Schanilec was born and raised in the Red River Valley of the North, near Forest River, Minto and Grafton, and attended a one-room schoolhouse for grades one through eight in Ops Township of Walsh County. He enrolled at the University of North Dakota, Grand Forks, eventually graduating from the University of Minnesota earning a doctoral degree. He practiced dentistry in West Fargo in the 1960s and 70s and also spent part of his career in Cavalier and Fargo, retiring in 1994. He now makes his home in Vergas, Minn.
Schanilec began writing novels at the conclusion of his dentistry career and has now amassed eight trade paperback novels.
Gray Riders II is eighth in a series of Hastings books that include: "Blue Darkness," "The Towers," "Danger in the Keys," "Purgatory Curve," "Gray Riders," "Sleep Six," and "Night Out in Fargo." He is presently working on his next novel "Ice Lord" to be released in 2008.
In Gray Riders II, the Gray Riders are in the saddle again, battling the Union in Western Missouri and protecting the residents of Tarrytown from ruthless jayhawkers.
Their biggest threat comes from within, when an albino mountain man named Bone Erloch, sets his sights on Tom Hastings's pregnant wife, Sarah. The Riders keep an eye on the family the best they can, but Bones and his boys catch Tom and Sarah along on a deserted stretch of road, and what ensues is a wagon chase that ends in a tumble of wagons and horses and Sarah pitched hard onto the ground.
The story takes place in the colorful Missouri countryside and brings back Grady, Justin Haggard, and all of his saddle mates.
There is no shortage of new arrivals to spice up life in Tarrytown. Collin, the greenhorn Irish rancher, is haunted by a murder from across the sea. The beautiful Rosemary Pikes has a passion for saloon life that is topped only by her love for the infamous outlaw Bob Younger. Cocky Pinkertown detective J.P. Weatherly thinks he can take down the James-Younger Gang single-handedly. And finally there is Bon Erloch, whose soul is as empty as his albino eyes.
Schanilec's novels can also be ordered online at www.hastingsnovels.com.

Lloyd G. Cantley, M.D., professor of cellular and molecular physiology and newly named C.N.H. Long Professor of Medicine, is a noted nephrologist who studies the formation and repair of tubules in the kidney, structures that are crucial to the organ's function.
When the kidney is injured following blood loss or exposure to toxins, the remaining epithelial cells regenerate functional tubules. By examining epithelial cell adhesion, migration, and tubule branching in response to growth factors, Cantley and colleagues in his laboratory are determining the intracellular signaling events critical for tubule formation during kidney development and following injury. Cantley also studies the role of adult stem cells in recovery from acute tubular necrosis, one of the most common causes of kidney failure, in which tubule cells die. His group has found that stem cells from bone marrow can sometimes home to injured tubules and differentiate into tubular epithelial cells, but that their primary beneficial effect is in secreting factors that protect existing tubular cells from death. Members of his laboratory are presently examining how stem cells can be mobilized for therapy in cases of acute renal failure.
Cantley is associate chair for research in the Department of Internal Medicine and associate director of its nephrology fellowship program. An associate editor of the Journal of the American Society of Nephrology, Cantley has published his research in the Journal of Clinical Investigation, Molecular Cell, and Proceedings of the National Academy of Science.
Cantley earned his M.D. from the West Virginia University School of Medicine. He completed his residency at North Carolina Memorial Hospital and his fellowship training in nephrology at Beth Israel Hospital and Brigham and Women's Hospital in Boston.

Grijalva seeks US review of pipeline service roads through wildlife refuge
U.S. Rep. Raúl Grijalva, a Tucson Democrat, has asked the U.S. Department of the Interior to intervene in a controversial pipeline project that would carry natural gas from Tucson to Sasabe and into Mexico. Grijalva sent a letter to the secretary of the interior Monday asking the department to challenge findings from a draft report released by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service regarding the use of access roads in the Buenos Aires National Wildlife Refuge for the Kinder Morgan Sierrita Pipeline project. In the report, known as a draft compatibility determination, Fish and Wildlife evaluated a proposal from Kinder Morgan to use 12 miles of roads in the refuge area during pipeline construction and determined it was permissible. Grijalva questioned why the agency would let Kinder Morgan use roads in the refuge after it refused to let the company build its pipeline through the refuge in an existing corridor near Arizona 286. "Not only would these roads be used for construction and access by heavy equipment and trucks, these roads would serve as permanent access for maintenance and repairs of the pipeline," Grijalva said in the letter. "This is an inexplicable determination and totally inconsistent with their previous determination of incapability of siting the pipeline along the already disturbed highway corridor."...more

Horn family a story of survival
Zach Horn wants everyone to know that he did not fly 300 feet through the air before he landed on the ground near Interstates 94 and 29. And he was not popping a wheelie or speeding around a semi truck on his motorcycle either.
Its funny how people talk, Horn, an 18-year-old graduate of West Fargo High School, said. Stories kind of get out there and people just go with it.
Horns accident, which happened back on July 11, quickly became the stuff of urban legend. Whether it was because it was amazing that he fell from the I-94 overpass (about 50 feet to the ground below) or that he was in an induced coma for a couple of days, word spread like wildfire after the news of the unfortunate accident.
But Zachs crash was just one part of an incredible summer for the Horn family, who lives near Westside Elementary here in West Fargo. And after a terrible series of events that could only be described as a cloud over the family, as father Mike said, the sun is now shining at last on this party of five.
The saga actually began five years ago, when Mike was diagnosed with kidney failure and targeted for a transplant. He received his new kidney, but it, too failed him, thanks to a problem called positive cross-matching, a process where the donor may fit most profiles but there is a hidden problem when the organ is actually placed in the recipients body.
We were told that there were only a couple of people in the world who can deal with that issue, Mike said. They recommended that I go to Rochester (Minn.) and have the procedure done at Mayo (Clinic).
The process began last September, as Mike went through the application process for the special surgery. In January, Mike and his aunt, who had offered her kidney the first time Mike needed a transplant, headed down for preliminary tests. The doctors concluded that with the proper treatments, Mike and his aunt would be a match, and that the cross-matching issues could be contained with close supervision. The procedure would take place in May.
Back home in West Fargo, Mikes wife, Stacy, learned she was pregnant around the same time Mike went down for his preliminary tests. The couple would be welcoming their third child, to join sons Zach and Isaac (a fourth-grader at the time) in the summer of 2005.
As Stacys pregnancy progressed, Mike readied himself for the transplant, which took place around Memorial Day. At Mayo Clinic, he and his aunt were brought into surgery with Mikes mother, Marge Sullivan, and Stacy close by. Marge was to serve as Mikes primary caregiver, something Mayo requires of all donors.
I had a pretty good support group with me, and Stacy came to visit when she could, Mike said. It went pretty well once we got past the initial stages.
The procedure went smoothly, but Mike went through acute rejection soon after the transplant. After shocking his system with drugs, Mike doesnt remember a lot of the early part of June, while Stacy endured her third trimester and Zach celebrated his recent graduation from high school.
As Mike was nearing the end of his recovery, tragedy struck again.
Zach was finishing work at Cash Wise Foods in Fargo, where he has worked over the last two years. An avid motorcyclist, Zach was looking to go riding that Monday night with some friends. After making a few phone calls, he rode alone to the south Fargo Kmart on University Avenue. He never made it, losing control of his bike and falling to the ground below.
The officer showed some of my buddies what they kind of thought what happened, Zach said. They think hit the wall pretty much going straight and then rode the barricade for a couple of seconds before I dropped down. Its not like I was launched off my bike or anything.
Stacy was out for a walk, leaving Isaac at home with some friends, with a neighbor when the accident happened. By chance, she broke from her normal walking route and strolled by her sister, Michelle Storrustens house.
I remember I kind of looked into the window and didnt really see anyone there, so we kept going, she said. Then Brock (Michelles husband) yelled my name down the street, so we headed back. We never walk that way, but it was hot, and I was really pregnant, so I cut my usual route a little bit short.
She went back to her sisters house, where Michelle notified Stacy that she had received a call from Little Brock, Zachs cousin, who had been told of the crash by Zachs best friend, Troy Wambach. She was told that Zach had been in an accident, and that she should go to Innovis Hospital in Fargo.
We got Isaac and went over there, and I guess it was pretty close to 10 p.m., she said. It seemed like I got out of the van and there was a chaplain there and he took me to a room right away. I though Zach was gone.
Instead, the chaplain took her to the two state highway patrol officers that had responded to the scene. They told her of the crash, the fall and the extent of Zachs injuries.
Luckily, Zach was knocked out by the crash, and doesnt remember the fall at all.
I barely remember the day now, he said. I remember leaving work, thats about it.
Zach had lacerated his liver, punctured lung and broken his pelvis in several places. However, he was wearing a helmet, and, as a result, didnt suffer any serious brain injuries.
I told him he should be a spokesperson for the company that made that helmet, Stacy said.
The neurosurgeon still recommended that Zach be placed in a coma, where he remained for nearly 72 hours, while the swelling in his brain went down, and his body recovered from the shock of the accident.
Mike, meanwhile, was told of what happened that night, 300 miles away in Rochester. He informed his doctors, and though he had just a few days of treatment left before he was to be released, he headed to Fargo with his mother to be by his sons side.
When he arrived, he was told the news of Zachs fortunate landing. It seemed that since Zach landed in nearly a fetal position, his entire right side had shared the brunt of the fall.
It was almost a perfect way to land in that situation, Stacy said.
Thats when the Horns luck started turning. Despite the trauma and the pain she felt, Stacy hung on to her little baby that day. Zach slept for several days in the hospital, while Mike headed back to Rochester to complete his preliminary rehabilitation. He came home for good near the end of July.
Speaking of coming home for good, Zach was released from the hospital just 17 days after his terrifying crash. He would need physical therapy, speech therapy and would be under some close observation, but hed be ready for school at North Dakota State by the time that rolled around.
And Stacy delivered little Max Horn on July 31. Hes now four and a half weeks old, and has a great set of lungs on him.
I dont think all of it has set in yet, Stacy said. Its been absolutely crazy. I think weve all suffered a little head trauma, so to speak. But weve made it through.
Isaac, almost 11, said hes glad he doesnt have to head to the hospital any more, after both of his brothers and his dad spent so much time there.
Now fully recovered from his incident, Mike is getting his blood checked weekly, and will soon be down to getting tested once a month. Mike, who owns and operates Engravers Inc. at Valley Sporting Goods, said the family never would have made it without the help of the West Fargo community. Zachs friends and fellow families held fundraisers and made meals for the Horns, and the response from the town has been overwhelming, Mike said.
One fundraiser was a car wash held by Zachs classmates in late July. The seven-hour event raised more than $2,000 to help with the Horns medical bills.
Im thankful, but Im not surprised, Zach said. Thats just the way that a lot of my friends are.
Other helpful hands came along. A local restaurant donated proceeds from a coupon handed out at the car wash. And a bank account was set up to receive donations from community members who wanted a way to lend a hand. A couple of weeks ago, West Fargo teacher Bob Bjornson, who had Zach in a couple of classes, brought a crew of workers over to finish the permanent siding on the Horn house. It was a project Mike had started months ago, but couldnt finish.
Everyone has been so great, Mike said. It makes you happy to be in a community like this.

I want to address some questions concerning audio traveling from the graphics Card.
When a computers graphics card supports hdmi and or audio transfer where does it get it from?Does it include an Audio DAC in order to decode audio and transfer to a receptive device (speakers/headphone)?
Also cards like the new ati models hd (HD3870 etc) series supposedly support HD audio if i'm not mistaken.But i do not see an audio jack on the back of the card.
I remember that when i first used this card,on the audio preference of the control panel i could select HD3870 as the default audio decoder,but now i do not see it.Does it have anything to do with Catalyst?

I was told that it uses a dvi2hdmi converter that strangely enough can trasfer audio from a dvi input!
Anyway i do not car cause i do not have an hdmi input anywhere,i'm just asking cause ati high definition audio drivers seem to be missing from my system and i'm just wondering if it's worth installing them for any reason.Will that have an effect to my onboard audio card?
Audio can be multiplexed along with the video in a DVI connection. Few devices know how to deal with this though.
The graphics cards I've seen with an HDMI output (including audio) have an SPDIF input connector (on the PCB, not the back plate) for digital audio from the sound card.
So you mean the audio received on the hdmi end is of spdif source
Anyway wil i have any use for it,on my 3.5mm jack or should i not even bother with hooking up the gpu's audio drivers?

As you can see there's only 2xdvi and 1xsvideo outputs.
What i'm asking is should i bother installing the cards audio drivers if i dont have a use for them.
So far i use my onboard's realtec soundcard to output from the jack to other my speakers or my headphones,and i was wondering if i could just do better.
If you are using the analog 3.5mm pinplug output to drive your speakers and headphones there's probably no reason to install the graphics card's audio drivers.
ok fair enough,thanx for your responses.

KABUL - Presidential candidates in Afghanistan begin two months of campaigning on Sunday for an election that Western allies hope will consolidate fragile stability as their forces prepare to leave after nearly 13 years of inconclusive war.
The Taliban have rejected the April 5 election and have already stepped up attacks to sabotage it. The militants will also be looking to capitalise if the vote is marred by rigging and feuding between rivals seeking to replace President Hamid Karzai, who can not run for a third term under Afghan law.
Whoever replaces him will inherit a country beset by deepening anxiety about security as most foreign troops prepare to pull out by the end of the year, leaving Afghan forces largely on their own to battle the insurgency.
Monthly attacks in the capital, Kabul, where candidates are expect to focus their efforts to win over women and young people, are at the highest since 2008, one embassy said in a recent confidential security report.
"This increase can be attributed to efforts towards the presidential elections," the embassy said.
Many Afghans say they are taking precautions.
"I have already advised my family to cut down unnecessary travel and never attend any big meetings," said Fawad Saleh, a barber in the Shar-e Naw area of Kabul. "The Taliban will reach any campaign and they will react violently."
While Afghanistan has no majority community, ethnic Pashtuns are considered the largest community and ethnicity will play a big role in deciding the next president.
Western diplomats expect the first round to be split between one of several prominent Pashtuns and former foreign minister Abdullah Abdullah, an ethnic Tajik who appeals to that voter base and who was Karzai's main challenger in the last election in 2009.
Two of Abdullah's campaigners in western Herat province were shot dead in their car on Saturday, police officials said, in another grim pointer to the violence ahead.

Neighbourhood project
On July 18th, 2006, the EEA launched its new Internet based service Ozone web.
Ozone web is EEA's first attempt to bring real-time monitoring information to a European level and to the web. Ozone web is a pilot information service within the Neighbourhood project to show real-time environmental information in a spatial context in a web viewer. It is to be considered as a representative initiative for assessing the feasibility of the Neighbourhood project.
Ozone web is a public website based around ozone data and air quality information integrated in EEA's spatial data infrastructure. It is published within the EEA main site and links back to data providers as well as to national and regional ozone websites, giving easy access to more local information.
The purpose of Ozone web is to inform about ground level ozone in Europe for current and recent situations on an hourly basis as well as to provide background information on specific pollutants.
Either by entering a place name or by clicking on a map of Europe, users are able to follow air quality locally and on a European scale. The web site also includes information on the health implications of the ozone values users are experiencing.
Over the next year the project plans to expand data coverage to other pollutants such as PM10 and PM2.5.

2012 is already shaping up to be a fantastic and extremely unpredictable season. I had no idea what to expect, going into today's race and it really was anybody's game. Mercedes had a fantastic qualifying session on Saturday, with Nico Rosberg finally getting his first pole. Michael Schumacher qualified a respectable 3rd, but started on the front row in 2nd, after Lewis Hamilton received a 5 grid spot penalty, for a gear box change.
Rosberg got off to a great start and was helped by Schumacher, in keeping the rest of the pack behind, while building the gap. It was teamwork in its purest form and Rosberg's resulting early lead, was maintained across the finish, where he secured his first career win. It was also the first win for Mercedes, as a constructor since 1955, with Juan Manuel Fangio behind the wheel. I expected to see the Silver Arrows eating through the tires, but Rosberg did a great job maintaining his tire degradation, throughout the race.
Mercedes's day wasn't all smiles though. Michael Schumacher had to retire early after the W03's right, front wheel nut wasn't screwed down. Mercedes weren't the only team to suffer from pit stop errors. The boys from McLaren showed up, for a Malaysian Grand Prix encore, and botched Jenson Button's chances for a win.
Lewis Hamilton started the weekend strong for McLaren and despite his 5 grid spot penalty, seemed in relatively good spirits, qualifying 2nd. His teammate Jenson Button got off to a great start from 6th and moved up 3 spots, entering turn 1. Despite consistently closing the gap on Rosberg, Button's hopes for a win were decided by yet another, McLaren botched pit stop. A faulty wheel gun stranded Button an extra 6 seconds, ruining his chances for catching Rosberg. He ultimately finished 2nd, with Hamilton 3rd, after some fantastic wheel to wheel racing with Sebastian Vettel.
How is character judged? It's judged not by how an individual handles victory, but how they handle defeat.
The season is still anybody's game and I'm not saying for a second, that Sebastian Vettel is out of the running. There are still 17 races between now and November and anything can happen. It is however, painfully obvious, that whether it be the car or the driver, something is not going right for Vettel. After an outburst, following the Malaysian Grand Prix, and news of both Red Bull drivers using different exhaust setups in Shanghai, Vettel is beginning to look desperate. During today's race, he was not only overtaken by Lewis Hamilton, in the second to last lap, but his teammate Mark Webber.
All the while Vettel has been struggling, Webber has been quietly out of the spotlight, giving solid performances. He's outdriven his World Champion teammate, in every Grand Prix of the season and has undoubtably given himself, more of a voice within the team. It's always bothered me how the media, even his own team, have brushed Webber off to the side. Yes, he's one of the veteran drivers on the grid, but he's consistent and always keeps his team in the points. Had it not been for some horrific starts last season, we may have seen a more even matchup at Red Bull. He's also a driver who doesn't loose his cool and takes advantage of opportunities. In many ways, he reminds me of Jenson Button, maybe that's why the two are good friends off the track?
Sauber looked good in the first half of the race, then lost their holding and finished 10th and 11th overall. Sergio Perez had some brilliant laps, fending off Lewis Hamilton and a set of tires, well past their expiration. Fernando Alonso finished 9th, after another difficult drive in the F2012, a car that's quietly plotting to kill its driver. The incredibly twitchy Ferrari, forced Alonso to fight the car, the entire race. It's a credit to Alonso, as he's the best man for the job. On the other hand, his teammate Felipe Massa struggled, again. Massa's pacing isn't remotely close to the upper half of the pack, much to the dismay of his team. I'll be surprised if something drastic doesn't happen at Ferrari this season.
Two of the biggest surprises at Shanghai were Kimi Raikkonen and Williams. Raikkonen did well in qualifying and put the Lotus in 5th, starting 4th. After a brilliant drag race down the pit lane with Lewis Hamilton, Rakkonen fell back and finished a disappointing 14th, after being walloped by a quarter of the grid, in 2 laps. The other big surprise of the day was Williams who went from bringing up the rear in 2011, to a serious mid-field contender in 2012. Both Bruno Senna and Pastor Maldando had excellent drives, finishing 7th and 8th, ahead of Ferrari. Williams and Sauber are definitely mixing things up for the rest of the grid, this season.
Next week will quite possibly be the most controversial race of the season. The teams head to Bahrain, a kingdom which has been under both political and social turmoil, for more than a year. It's going to be very interested to see how the next week unfolds.

MELBOURNE, Nov 28 (Reuters) - Rio Tinto has decided to defer plans to build a $1 billion iron ore mine in Australia, but the world's No. 2 iron ore producer said it still expects to reach its expansion target of 350 million tonnes a year by 2017.
The move to hold off an investment decision on its proposed new Silvergrass mine until the third quarter of 2015 at the earliest follows a near 50 percent slide in iron ore prices this year as Rio, BHP Billiton and Fortescue Metals Group have flooded the market with new supply.
Rio is focusing on cutting capital spending and operating costs to preserve cash so it can meet shareholders' demands for higher returns following a spending binge on disastrous acquisitions and huge mine expansions over the last seven years.
"Looking out over the next five years, we expect to generate strong free cash flow and we remain committed to materially increase cash returns to shareholders in a sustainable way," said Chief Executive Sam Walsh.
"I look forward to announcing this at our annual results in February next year," he said in a statement ahead of an investor briefing.
Walsh is looking to set Rio Tinto apart from its arch rival BHP, which has been more cautious about the timing of returning cash to shareholders amid a slump in iron ore, coal and oil prices, and is looking to satisfy shareholders to help fend off rebuffed suitor Glencore Plc.

Mobile phone maker Motorola is to launch a digital TV-enabled portable player this March in a bid to compete with products such as Apple's iPod Video. Motorola is referring to the device as a portable media player - the first such device it has come up with.
The Motorola MobileTV DH01 will be able to play up to 90 minutes of video content stored on removable memory cards, for which a suitable card slot is provided. A battery life of around four hours is anticipated, while DH01 owners will also be able to pause live TV thanks to the device's built-in memory buffer.
Refreshingly, the adoption of DVB-H digital TV across many parts of Europe puts the EU ahead of the US and much of the Far East for once.
As with add-on products such as the SlingPlayer Mobile, the Motorola DH01 lets users watch live TV. The 4.3in widescreen display should make TV viewing that bit more practical than on an iPod too. Motorola has not been doing well in the the mobile phone market of late and is keen to expand into other areas.
Motorola is using the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas as a showcase for its new MobileTV portable media player, so expect more details to be revealed over the coming days. Alternatively, take a peek at www.motorola.com.

Rumor: Apple to unveil Haswell-based MacBook Pro at September 10th event
Date: Friday, August 23rd, 2013, 07:02
Category: MacBook Pro, Rumor
The Haswell-based MacBook Pro you're hankering for could be unveiled early next month.
Per AppleInsider and EMSone, the highly-anticipated MacBook Pro refresh is said to already be in production, setting the stage for a possible unveiling alongside new iPhones at Apple's rumored Sept. 10 event.
Taiwanese manufacturers have begun to ship components for new MacBook Pros based on Intel's fourth-generation Haswell processors to assembly plants, according to a Thursday report by Hong Kong-based supply chain monitor EMSOne.
The Haswell architecture, which made its Apple debut at WWDC 2013 in the MacBook Air, is designed to take advantage of improvements in transistor manufacturing processes to increase power efficiency and computational performance. Like its predecessor Ivy Bridge, Haswell chips are manufactured using a 22-nanometer process.
Apple's 2013 MacBook Air demonstrated the substantial power savings that can be realized with the new architecture. Despite maintaining the same battery capacity as their 2012 counterparts, the 2013 Airs run significantly longer on a charge – the 13-inch model gained five hours of battery life after the Haswell update, while the 11-inch model gained four hours.
Haswell-based MacBook Pros are expected to see similarly impressive gains in graphics performance. Benchmarks have revealed that we can expect to see Intel's Iris Pro 5200 GPU — the chipmaker's top-of-the-line integrated graphics option that is intended to compete with discrete GPUs from nVidia and AMD — in the new models.
The future of non-Retina and hard disk-based MacBook Pros remains unclear. While Apple is not expected to discontinue either model, the report does not specify which variants will benefit from the September refresh.
Stay tuned for additional details as they become available.

Rod Smith on Do It Yourself IT
This post is a combination of Rod's short keynote and his breakout session I went to right after lunch. Rod's meta point is that lots of enterprise applications don't get built because they aren't affordable to write. Chris Anderson would call this the long tail of software. Rod introduced the idea of "situational applications" – something you build for a specific situation then you throw it away. I actually prefer the term "disposable application" since it focuses on the fact you will throw it away.
He demoed a proof of concept called QEDWiki. QED == Quick and Easily Done. It seems a lot like JotSpot. You have a palette of components that you can drag onto the page and wire together quickly. They built a slightly interesting application to mashup store locations with weather data in under five minutes.
In the breakout, they got into much more detail on QEDWiki. There's a wiki programming language – I'm guessing conceptually similar to WikiTalk -and a AJAX-y drag and drop authoring environment that sits on top of it. Pretty cool, but as he got under the hood it seemed pretty complex. The amount of wiki code the visual authoring environment spits out is significant and the implementation of one of the reusable components is massive. Building a wrapper component for the Yahoo Traffic service took "around a day". That seem large to you?

Just 5 Votes for Barack Obama~
There has been some discussion on the news concerning Obama receiving a majority of the votes in certain Philadelphia districts. Here's a County in the lone star state not very fond of Barack Obama~
So do I!!!!!!!!!

I'm in TX, and yep, that would be group think for where they are located.

It won't take long for many more Americans to see obama's true colors at the rate we are going now. Look at all the scandals going on with obama now--the truth will take him down--and it can't come out quick enough.
And his 2nd term hasn't begun yet. We are in for a corrupt next 4 yrs. The probability of another terrorist attack is very likely. Al-Qeada is emboldened and expanding under this admin. In 1 nite, the terrorists killed 4 Americans, we lost our position in Libya. Obama continues to lie, his chief CIA Director resigns. What's next!?
Blonde, you are so right. And then we have people who are resigning like Hilary Clinton and I think there's someone else, but can't remember at this time of morning. Sort of looks like people are jumping ship before obama sinks.
Quoting blondekosmic15:
Quoting VeronicaTex:
I so appreciate you sharing this very telling video of this small town in Texas.
I loved seeing these people talking: straight forward, but imn such a humble, honest way.
This is what they were saying: After four years of the first term: He does not tell the truth, even about small things, has a tendency to blame former President Bush for his current problems and claims to be Christian.
There is a saying that comes to my mind that goes something like this: "If a man cannot be trusted in the small things, how can you trust him in the biggret things."
By this man's fruits he is known.
He is reaping what he has sowed and continues to sow.....
Thank you Veronica for your comments. I agree wholeheartedly. Sometimes when you climb to the top, you fall very hard when you come down. His deeds & failed policies will cause his fall. The citizens of this small town see Obama for who he is. Many of us do....
Really......! won't be long till this site makes a BO flag to wave. Then it will be goodbye.
"Well enough people did to make him president" I guess if you count each person that voted for him twice or more, the dead people and cartoon characters as well as enemies in the ME.

Quoting MomTiara19:
Philly doesnt like Obama??
Well enough people did to make him president.
Never said Philly doesn't like Obama. In fact I mentioned there are districts in Philadelphia claiming the majority of their voters supported Barack Obama. Interesting to see if you will be flying the flag for Obama in 4 yrs!
