The Food and Drug Administration has approved a treatment made by Eisai for gastroesophageal reflux disease in children ages 1 year to 11 years, the drug maker said.
Canada's provincial and territorial governments have reached a deal that they said would save money on drugs, but that generic drug makers said had left them "disappointed."

Decentralization, Accountability and the 2007 MPs Elections in Kenya
The Kenyan Constituency Development Fund (CDF) aims to alleviate poverty by allocating resources to constituencies which MPs and residents decide how to spend. In this paper we assess whether MPs' re-election chances were affected by their management of the CDF. For this purpose we analyse the type of projects implemented by the CDF and residents' opinion about their MP and the CDF. We find that MPs' re-election chances were influenced by MPs' ethnicity and by the way MPs allocated the CDF. MPs who run the most projects on education and the least on other projects such as health or water were less likely to be re-elected.

Scott Harvey Wines Welcomes New Tasting Room Manager, Jack Gorman
Scott Harvey Wines, one of the original tasting rooms on Main Street in Sutter Creek, welcomed Jack Gorman as their new tasting room manager. Gorman brings an unusual background to the tasting room. He worked as an education lobbyist for more than 15 years before rounding out his career in public policy as deputy director in Governor Schwarzenegger's Washington, D.C. office. Pulling his people-oriented career beyond politics, he managed Bin 604 Wine Cellars, a boutique wine store in Baltimore, for the past year, building relationships with customers and expanding the wine knowledge of his clientele. As fate would have it, Gorman was first introduced to Scott Harvey Wines because the winemaker's Zinfandel was popular with the store's customers.
"One of the reasons I was very excited and intrigued by Scott Harvey Wines is that I believe the organization is truly on the precipice of something great," said Gorman. "In my first month I have seen first hand what a lovely environment Sutter Creek provides for wine tasting. I'm struck by the amazing and loyal customer base Scott Harvey Wines already possesses. We have an excellent foundation and the opportunity for future growth is limitless.
"Scott's passion, knowledge and history in winemaking is second to none," he continued. "Being able to work for and alongside him is absolutely the kind of environment I was looking to bring my skills." Gorman assisted Scott Harvey, the winemaker, with the bottling of 2012 InZINerator and One Last Kiss last week. Gorman shares Scott's insights and views on winemaking with tasting room visitors.
No stranger to California, Gorman feels that free-run grape juice pulses through his veins. He originally hails from the Lodi wine-growing region and received his bachelor's degree from UC Davis. He now resides with his fiancé in Sacramento.
"We're delighted to have Jack join us," said Jana Harvey, co-founder of Scott Harvey Wines. "He brings great energy, enthusiasm and ideas to enhance our wine tasting experience."
"In my first month in the tasting room, I've had the opportunity to share Scott's wines with some very appreciative people." They are especially enjoying our Mountain Selection Zinfandel, double gold medal winner, and our Mountain Selection Barbera, awarded the gold medal by the San Francisco Chronicle Wine Competition. It's fantastic to see people's reactions first hand as they sample the wines and experience what makes them stand out," said Gorman.
Gorman has several new programs he's excited to introduce to his tasting room visitors. "We're planning to unveil a series of seminars to expand our guests' wine education and enjoyment and to bring that experience into people's homes."

Dick Enberg, of course, would say, 'Oh, my!' I'll go with"egads" in contemplating Wimbledon without Enberg working his magicbehind a microphone.
It's like the All England Club's famed strawberries missing their cream. Like a Wimbledon participant void of an all-white attire. Or players emerging on center court, absent the curtsy toward the royal box.
But before saying so-long, Enberg clears his throat for one morehello. He starts his 35th and final Wimbledon Monday, his velvetvoice escaping from ESPN and NBC's telecasts leading to the men'sfinal.
"I'm satisfied,'' he said. "Romantically, satisfied.''
It was a keen marriage: Wimbledon, Enberg and that nifty niche NBC forged with its "Breakfast at Wimbldeon'' presentation.
Wimbledon's finals, especially to West Coast TV viewers, were a mismatch of tape highlights, delayed action and the sort of uneven production which was seldom an ace.
But at Enberg's first Wimbledon in 1979 NBC went live, with the first ball struck at 9 a.m. on the East Coast; 6 a.m. on the best coast.
Enberg was there, but he wasn't the star. And it wasn't Bjorn Borg aiming for his fourth straight title.
Remember Roscoe Tanner? Without him, NBC executives keen on breakfast nearly had their lunch handed to them.
"He was the hero that day,'' said Enberg, whose taking a brief leave from his Channel 4 San Diego Padres duties.
Enberg is good at keeping the faith, just like Wimbledon officials clutch to their protocol. When NBC broached "Breakfast at Wimbledon," the Brits thought it was a jolly good idea.
But delaying the start to build the pre-match hype? They would rather chug weak tea.
"They were a bunch of old stodgy characters,'' Enberg said. "And they wouldn't bulge one second to allow us just five minutes before the match; tradition said the match started at 2 o'clock. But if we did that, they would already be playing when went on air.''
Enter Tanner. His agent, Donald Dell, was involved in NBC's telecast. He told his client to stall, by hiding in one.
"They went to go get the two finalists out of the locker room and suddenly Tanner had an interesting diarrhea problem,'' Enberg said. "They were banging on the bathroom door, 'Mr. Tanner, you are late! Mr. Tanner!' ''
Nearly five minutes later Tanner emerged, with an American audience properly educated for what would be a thrilling, five-set match, with Tanner nearly upsetting Borg.
It's among the cherished memories Enberg possesses. Over the next two weeks, he' ll offer many in 90-second pieces saluting this grand venue and Enberg's work in it.
"His commentaries are always timely and he is so in-tune to howthe matches are running,'' said Carlsbad's Rod Laver, who wonWimbledon four times and listened to Enberg in countless more. "Youcan tell he enjoys the game and enjoys reporting on it.''
But baseball's tug is telling. Enberg, 76, had to decrease his work load when joining the Padres, with tennis, the NFL and college basketball pushed aside.
"As much as I enjoyed them, I gave them all up for baseball,''Enberg said. "I thought I could hang on to Wimbledon and the U.S. Open, but there I was last year staying up all night listening tothe Padres at Wimbledon when we were in first place.
"Then I was at the U.S. Open when my heart was back with the team. So I decided this would be the last year of tennis.''
He'll take his final bow at Flushing Meadows, N.Y., but for now, it's his Wimbledon recollections rushing forward.
"It's no free lunch,'' he said. "They still want me to do the matches but then do 11 memory pieces ---- there are a lot of memories to go through.
"I'll walk the grounds and be reminded of moments in the closingpieces: Billie Jean King winning her 20th major; the statue of FredPerry; the old soldiers, the World War II veterans, dressed intheir red uniforms; to Jana Novonta blubbering on the white silksuit of the duchess; to a young Maria Sharapova; to the Williamssisters; to Boris Becker.''
The snapshots from five decades keep coming, but Enberg has to get going. Time, especially at Wimbledon, waits for no one.
I can't wait to view Enberg's final grass-stained work.
"It's amazing how he pulls those little stories together,'' Laver added. "He can do it because he has a lot of knowledge, enthusiasm and it shows. He's just been a great friend to the game of tennis.'' Sometimes, even dear friends go their separate ways.

The four crucial mistakes that doomed the Bruins in Game 4
The Bruins were unable to sweep the Rangers in Game 4 of the Eastern Conference semifinals Thursday night in New York's Madison Square Garden and must now try to win the series back in Boston on Saturday. The team said mistakes caused the loss, like Tuukka Rask's tumble and Zdeno Chara's undoing behind the Boston net.
Take a look at the four biggest mistakes the Bruins made that prevented them from sweeping the series.
1. Derek Stepan steals the puck and scores: "I wasn't aware he was right behind me," defenseman Zdeno Chara said after having his pocket picked on the play. "I've got to make sure I take a look."
2. Dougie Hamilton fails to stop Chris Kreider: "Right now, for me, that last goal obviously bugging me and that's a play I have to have and just feel like I kind of let the team down," said Hamilton. "Just pretty upset right now."
3. Bruins called for too many men on the ice and Rangers score tying goal on ensuing power play: "I think it was my fault," winger Tyler Seguin said. "I saw Thorty [Shawn Thornton] coming. I hopped over, and I think he got hit. I haven't seen the replay. He stayed on for an extra second. I don't know exactly the ruling. Our centerman, whoever was out there, touched the puck, not me. I don't know if that's too many men, or if I touch the puck, it's too many men. Regardless, I think it was a close call. They made me pay for it."
4. Tuukka Rask falls, Carl Hagelin scores easy goal: "I just took a step to the side in what I think there was probably a skate mark or something," said Rask. "My skate dug in it, that's what it felt like, and then I lost my balance and the rest is history. It happens to me twice a year in practice, maybe. Focus, got to be more focused, I think, but just a tough mistake. It looks pretty bad on TV, I bet."

We stayed for the second time in this wonderful "resort ". Each stay was a fabulous experience. Louise and Vinnie with Toby go out of their way to make you feel like your at home. The food is an excellent experience with a Picture perfect presentation and out of this world flavor. We enjoyed the other guests and sitting by the outdoor fireplace. Truly a 5 star with every detail.

The Artisan Inn had three lovely rooms (as shown in their photos), but we were the unlucky couple to get the forth room, that was so small we could not walk around. The bed was against the wall which made it very difficult to get up during the night to go to the bathroom. The bathroom was spacious but the shower small. I really felt our room should have been discounted. Now with that said, the hosts were WONDERFUL! They were very friendly, extremely helpful and the food was like going to a gourmet restaurant. Louise and Vince went out of their way to make or stay enjoyable. Looking forward to returning next year.

I'm so sorry you were uncomfortable in the Dejavu Room. We actually rearranged the room that evening - took out the dresser and pulled the bed away from the wall. I hope that helps guests in the future. That room is less expensive than the other rooms; you were part of a group reservation so apparently that is something you were not aware of. Thank you for staying with us and I hope we can make it up to you in the future!

The room in the parsonage where we were originally in was the smallest of them, but had a beautiful attached bathroom, TV and was still plenty of room for two people. Lastly, there was a building (which I believed housed nuns originally), that has been converted into a bit of a retreat centre. There were a half-dozen or so double rooms with a full kitchen upstairs, and a large meeting area downstairs with another great kitchen, big screen TV with satellite, and lots of couches. We even had access to a great little jacuzzi in the back. This place is an absolute gem in the middle of nowhere. There's a little grill next door if you want to grab some food, but otherwise there is almost nothing in the immediate vicinity. You can drive about half an hour if you're looking for things to do, but if you really want to just get away in peace and quiet, where you know you won't be disturbed, this is absolutely the place to do it. Location and buildings aside, the hosts are really what makes this place special. Both of them go way out of their way to be accommodating. Louise's breakfast was very likely the best breakfast I've ever had in my life. Homemade apple turnovers, local sausages, and the fluffiest, cottage-cheese pancakes that still make my mouth water. And Vinnie is a very entertaining fellow to talk to – he has absolutely no shortage of hilarious stories to tell. The two of them were great to have as hosts. The next time we need a quiet getaway, there's zero doubt about where we'll end up.

We stayed here twice and we loved the warm hospitality with which Vinny and Louise welcome one and show throughout one's stay. Small details such as bathrobes, make-up remover towelettes, extra shampoos, hairdriers, warm cookies waiting on the sideboard make a huge impression. The breakfasts were varied and excellent. It is a great place for a family reunion or a blissful country getaway!

Our writer's group stayed at the brick house in back for a few days ans we loved it! We got all kinds of work done and Louise and Vinny were super. Louise kept bringing us more and more goodies to munch on while we worked and Vinnie went and got us a pizza for our first night. Their breakfasts are to die for-- Louise cooks like a master chef. We're thinking seriously of making this an annual event because we got so much done and had such a great time.

I'm an author and was looking for someplace to go for a few nights for some quiet time to work on my latest manuscript. I had considered hotels but it just didn't seem relaxing. I looked into some local bed and breakfasts. I didn't want to go far, but I wanted someplace quiet. I came across Marienthal Inn, among others. I chose Marienthal because the rooms looked gorgeous and the price was the best anywhere. And when I got there, I knew within moments that it was the right place for me. Louise and Vinnie were amazing hosts. The food was unbelievable!! And the baked goods Louise had set out during the day were so so tasty! :) I was able to work in peace and quiet in a very comfy chair in the parlor! And before I left, I'd asked for a tour of the Brick house. I belong to two different writer's groups and knew Marienthal would make the perfect setting for a retreat. I'm looking forward to my second stay this coming weekend with my Romance Writers of America chapter :)

My fiancee and I have very high expectations aesthetically, and in terms of dining. We like places where attention has been paid to detail, where an effort at originality has sincerely been made, where the environment has its own poetry, relative to the locale. We are open minded about food, but like healthy fare, care given to the mixture of ingredients, attention to detail. Marienthal is clearly a labor of love for the owners. It's lost to the world and yet has tasteful, fun surroundings, details galore, and --most importantly-- some kind of ethos that keeps it together. The food was home-cooked, interesting fare and in abundance from when we arrived until when we left. The room was exceptionally comfortable, a hideaway, and I slept the best night of sleep in months. We feel completely restored. I really can't recommend the place enough. I wish it well and hope it prospers once its wedding hall / reception hall in old St. Mary's church is done .

Thanks to Louise and Vinnie for an excellent stay. They went out of their way to accomodate us, and gave us everything we needed for a comfortable and relaxing stay. Although we only stayed for 1 night, we could have easily stayed here longer if needed. Definately coming back!

Vaadeland looking to help Bison win another FCS football title
Kevin Vaadeland fulfilled two dreams as a member of the North Dakota State University football team last season.
Now Vaadeland has a chance to cap off another dream season when the Bison play Sam Houston State in a rematch of last year's NCAA Division I FCS (Football Championship Subdivision) title game.
After recovering from a knee injury his freshman season, Vaadeland made his dream of playing Division I football come true last year by catching five passes for 51 yards in 13 games. Vaadeland capped off his first collegiate season with a national championship ring as the No. 4-seeded Bison defeated No. 1 Sam Houston State 17-6 in the FCS title game.
Vaadeland played a bigger role as the Bison returned to the FCS championship game this year. NDSU, the No. 1 seed, will try to repeat as national champs by playing No. 5 Sam Houston State this Saturday (Feb. 5) at noon at Frisco, TX. That game at FC Dallas Stadium will be televised on ESPN2.
"Winning a national title was huge," said the 6-foot-4, 238-pound junior tight end. "I had never experienced anything like that since I never won a state championship. One of the main reasons I came here was to win a national championship. I didn't think I'd have the chance to win two."
In 14 games this season, including six as a starter, Vaadeland caught at least one pass in nine of them and has 16 receptions for 161 yards and two touchdowns as the Bison carry a 13-1 record into the national championship game.
Vaadeland had a 4-yard catch in NDSU's 22-7 win over Colorado State on Sept. 8 and had a 12-yard catch in the Bison's 66-7 victory over Prairie View on Sept. 22.
In the Bison's 33-21 win over No. 14 Northern Iowa on Sept. 29, Vaadeland had three catches for 43 yards, including a 19-yard TD in the fourth quarter to give NDSU a 30-14 lead. That was Vaadeland's first TD reception of his collegiate career.
"Catching a touchdown pass was amazing, especially against one of our biggest rivals," said Vaadeland.
In wins over South Dakota (54-0 on Oct. 20) and Southern Illinois (23-17 on Oct. 27), Vaadeland had one reception for 6 yards in each game and followed with three catches for 28 yards in a 21-17 win over Missouri State on Nov. 3.
Vaadeland had his second TD of his career on Nov. 10 as his 24-yard catch gave NDSU a 10-0 lead in the first quarter in a 20-17 victory over No. 16 South Dakota State University.
NDSU opened the playoffs with a 28-3 win over SDSU on Dec. 1 and defeated No. 9 Wofford on Dec. 8 as Vaadeland caught two passes for 10 yards. Vaadeland had an 8-yard reception as the Bison advanced to the title game with a 23-20 win over No. 6 Georgia Southern on Dec. 14.
Now NDSU, whose only loss was a 17-14 setback to Indiana State on Oct. 13, will put an eight-game winning streak on the line against Sam Houston State, which enters the championship game with an 11-3 record. Two of those losses were to Baylor (48-23) and Texas A&M (47-28).
"In the back of my mind, I knew we were talented enough to get back. It's going to be tough. Sam Houston is a really good team. They probably have the best defense we've faced all year," said Vaadeland. "If we work hard, I think we have a good chance to repeat and get another shot at winning it next year."

I often get questions regarding certain steps that I take in exiting an option position that are hard to answer in a twitter message. Sometimes the questions pertain to time-frame, or "why did you do that, why not do this" so I find it easier to do Blog post where I can lay it all out.
A heavily followed stock is $GMCR so my current trade has generated a lot of questions surrounding what I have been doing the past 2 days on the option side. Here is a summary of the initial entry:
- L stock at 33.85 in after hours on 11/27/2012 (earnings report day)
I sold 1/2 of the position on 11/28 for $36 for a profit of $2.15 per share. Once I see a stock stall, and I did in this case, I like to at least sell Calls against the position to give myself a cushion for any downside move. I did just that with this trade:
As price churned yesterday, I elected to move up the strike to give the position a little more room:
I came in today with a plan to address the 4 positions that have weekly options (including this position). After some review today, I elected to sell the long stock position and manage this short Call into the close. The $.69 in premium gives me a lot of room to do so and is worth the effort.

Every year at this time, yard work totally weighs on me. It's not a feeling that I can honestly call guilt, but it pushes on my cranium in the same way. Maybe obligation? Whatever it is, I don't like it. Too much chatter in the brain; sentencers that start with "you should".
Proof that my Australia vacation was beneficial: I came home with some new rules for myself; well, maybe not rules, but some ideas on how to live better. I'm telling you, a little thinking time works wonders. Also, Carrie Bradshaw thinks that single women should be thrown a party for being brave enough to go on vacation by themselves. I'm just happy with my post-vacation take-aways:
1) Chill out on the mental dialog. I am so not sure how I am going to do this. But it's so weird how things happen in life. I'm not all spiritual, but I keep getting messages from different people about the mental dialog and what it means and the importance of calming it. Eckhard Tolle says it's the ego (are you reading his book? I'm 1/4 of the way through and it's pretty awesome) and it's definitely not your identity. I think I must have decided that when I named it (note to self: when you tell people in person that you named your inner voice, don't be surprised when they look at you like you have a horn growing out of your head). So I am not sure what I am going to do about the voice, you know, the ones that keeps me up at night. But I am going to do something; maybe yoga. It just feels like mental clutter. I can at least acknowledge it for what it is.
2) Speaking of clutter (and despite the fact that I have done a wee bit of shopping lately), I am going to continue to scale down on the possessions (I can't bear the thought of a yard sale, but I am sure I can find good homes for a lot of my stuff). When I am about to buy something, I have to ask myself "Will it make me happy to look at this thing? Will it make my life better?". I'm getting so much better at saying no (and actually feeling really good about it). I am not my possessions. I feel another major purge coming on. Bring it. Or at least bring your pick-up truck over to my house.
3) Obligation. I have talked about this before: the way it feels to do something because you feel obligated, not because you want to. I'm going to be selfish for a while. I am going to have to let go of some routines. I already feel kind of liberated by this. For example, yard work. Every year, I plant stuff and try to get my yard looking all Better Homes and Gardens. I'm am so not doing that this year. I am mowing the lawn and I have spraying the weeds and that is it. I'm not going to get myself all wrapped up in "I have to work on the yard today!" No, I do not. I do not "have to" anything. My neighbors don't care. Yeah, I like having a nice yard but I also need to learn how to relax. And that doesn't happen when there's a voice in my head trying to make me feel guilty about not having dirt under my fingernails. I admit it, I don't like gardening; I like having a nice yard. There's a trade-off there. So I am trying something different. I won't be doing the same things because I always have. And I won't feel like I owe someone my time. (Hi, mid-life crisis...jeez....next I'll be buying a Porsche)
4) Less of other things that don't add to my life. Less TV and more reading (I've been getting through a book a week). Less analyzing and more appreciating. More cooking, more music. Less "projects". Less thinking about what I should do, more time outdoors. Less wine, more water. More listening, less talking. More sleep? Huh, nature? Can I have more sleep? Por favor?
I already feel better just typing this out. It's kind of like figuring out that you are allergic to your laundry detergent and not your clothes, if that makes any sense (even if it doesn't make any sense, that's what it's like). It's 10:53 and I am still in my pajamas and I don't feel bad about it.

Georgia found out Monday, and not without a little anxiety leading up to the big moment, that it was in the NCAA Women's Soccer Tournament. It's now up to the Bulldogs to determine how long they stay.
The Bulldogs (12-9) will play No. 20 Clemson (11-6-2) at 5:30 p.m. in today's first round in Knoxville, Tenn. Oklahoma and host Tennessee will begin soon after, with the winners meeting in the second round on Sunday.
This is Georgia's fourth appearance in the NCAA Tournament, where the Bulldogs are 2-3-1 all-time.
The only common opponent for Georgia and Clemson is South Carolina. Clemson defeated the Gamecocks 1-0 on Aug. 28, while Georgia pulled out a 2-1 win on Oct. 10.
Goals will be hard to come by for the Bulldogs. Clemson has given up just 18 goals all season, a third of those coming in a 6-1 loss to undefeated and top-ranked North Carolina.
Georgia, meanwhile, has struggled to find the net over the last month. The Bulldogs have been outscored 7-4 in their last five games.
Senior forward Jessica Winton leads to the Bulldogs into the tournament. A First-Team All-SEC selection, she is the first Bulldog ever to lead the SEC in goals (15) and points (35).
Clemson is led offensively by freshman Courtney Foster of Conyers, who has scored 13 goals and added five assists for 31 points. Allison Graham has five goals and 10 assists for 20 points. Goalkeeper Lauren Whitt has a 0.85 goals-allowed average.
Six of Georgia's nine losses have come against opponents currently ranked and competing in the tournament. The Bulldogs have posted three wins against ranked opponents, Stanford, Ole Miss and Auburn. Clemson will mark the 10th ranked opponent the Bulldogs have faced this season.
Georgia and Clemson have played four times, with the Tigers taking all four, including a 3-2 win over the Bulldogs in Athens last year.

Remington Model 742
My Rem Model 742 after many careful years of use jammed on me this year. Mfg in 1968. Cosmetically it is still at 90% and has the original 4X Weaver I put on it many years ago and has been a steady game getter since.Now it's a jammer!!I thought I had a good one.Should have known it was only a matter of time! Did Remington ever solve the problem with jamming on this model?

The jamming problem is commonly due to wear on the inside rails in the receiver. Quite frankly, the guns wear out before the barrels do.

742 problem
Really need more info on the type of jam you experienced. Feeding, extraction, ejection or whatever. Just my opinion but the magazines are somewhat flimsy and get tweeked easily if dropped and collect crud like a magnet if carried in a pocket. +1 on the "try another magazine-either new or known to work properly". Secondly, is the chamber clean and the ammo free of grit or dust?

I'm with Abel/Moosemike on this matter. The 742 was only rifle that our local Gander Mountain refused to take in on trades for this exact reason.

If it were mine, and it couldn't be fixed, I'd give it to a young hunter to use as a single shot. Then go buy a better gun. Its a good excuse to treat both a young'n & yourself to a new rifle.

I've heard this about the 742 wearing the inside of the receiver many times. I've owned/shot about a dozen 742 rifles in various calibers and have never seen this situation. If you carry the rifle in a pickup gun rack w/o a magazine on dusty, sandy roads with your window down year round and then load it and shoot a mag as fast as possible, I'll bet you see some wear. Grind sand and grit into any moving metal parts and you'll soon see wear. We used to burn an ammo can(248 rounds?) a month through a couple of 742's just messing around. I've shot many hundreds of reloads through one over 4-5 years and it never stumbled-but it was kept fairly clean and lubed.

I had a buddy bring me his 742 in 30-06 that was having major jamming issues. I took it completely apart and gave everything a good scrubbing. Then I took a 410 shotgun hone and lightly touched up the chamber, which looked just slightly rough. Put her back together and he shoots this gun today with zero problems. That was in 1997 or so.

I wish you luck with getting it repaired.
Reminton's replacement for the 7400 is the 750. I don't know if the 750 is any better or not, in terms of expected life. I read that Remington improved the gas system, and all reciprocating surfaces are Teflon-coated -
So, there's an "improved" model, if you really want an autoloader.
Or, you could look at this as a chance to get a different rifle. There are a lot of really accurate, bombproof rifles available now. Easier to clean. Better triggers.
That's what I did, a few years ago, when I reluctantly sold my 742.

First step I take........
w/ any semi that is failing is a good, strip,clean, and relube. You don't mention type of failure (jam) but I have "fixed" many Rem autos by cleaning and polishing chamber with a bristle brush as the .410 comment described. This would be for failures to extract.
Next semi issue is mags. Find or borrow some mags to shoot in your rifle.
I find it hard to believe that a Rem auto rifle will wear out in 500 rds, even with marginal care. But I have heard stories of Rem autos being "unrepairable".

If you have been using Light Magnum ammo it is likely that the frame rails are peened. Look for a banged up area on the receiver wall rail opposite the ejection port. This is an unrepairable problem. Any kind of hot loads or standard loads with an extended pressure curve like Hornady Light Magnums, Federal High Energy etc will cause this problem.

In Tuesday confirmation hearings, Supreme Court nominee Elena Kagan has confirmed her belief that past high court decisions require that any state regulation of abortion protect the "health" of women seeking abortions. One pro-life group objected that this exception constituted a "massive loophole" barring most regulation of the procedure.
Sen. Diane Feinstein (D-Calif.) brought up abortion jurisprudence in the confirmation hearing on Tuesday.
"Do you believe the constitution requires that the health of the mother be protected in any statute restricting access to abortion?" the Senator asked.
Kagan replied that the "continuing holding" of Roe v. Wade and Doe v. Bolton was that "women's life and women's health have to be protected in abortion regulation."
Dr. Charmaine Yoest, president and CEO of Americans United for Life, claimed the nominee reaffirmed her support "for the benefit of her supporters in the abortion lobby" and for abortion without "limitations or restrictions."
According to Yoest, the American people do not support Kagan's "out of the-mainstream position" and do not want a judge who "has already pre-judged the issue." Recent polling data shows that more Americans are choosing to describe themselves as pro-life.
AUL argues that under the legal framework created by Roe and Doe, an abortionist can offer "any reason imaginable" to justify performing an abortion at any time during a woman's pregnancy.
However, the Supreme Court decision Gonzales v. Carhart upheld a partial-birth abortion restriction without the "massive loophole" and arguably narrowed the health exception created in Doe.
In AUL's view, this means that abortion law is confused and "far from settled."
"The fact that Kagan believes that the Roe / Doe health exception still applies unchanged to all laws pertaining to abortion indicates that she has not changed from the passionate ideologue who advocated against meaningful regulations of abortion while working for President Clinton," the pro-life group commented in a statement.
AUL reported that during her time in the White House as an advisor to President Bill Clinton, Kagan sought a health exception that went further than the one required in Doe and took a position that would "drastically" undermine the ability of state and federal legislators to pass "meaningful" regulations of abortion.

Arson Suspected in String of Forest Fires in Western Galilee
Hundreds of dunam of natural forest, olive groves destroyed; 17 fire fighting teams, 6 planes involved in efforts to subdue flames.
A string of raging fires destroyed hundreds of dunam of natural forest and olive groves in the western Galilee on Thursday. The fire department suspects arson as the cause of some of these fires.
The fire fighting teams battling the blazes had the added obstacle of heavy winds which helped spread the fires over larger areas of land. In a number of cases, airplanes were utilized to combat the fire from above.
Fire fighters from cities as far from the area as Netanya were also summoned. A total of 17 fire fighting teams and six aircraft were ultimately involved in the efforts.
Meanwhile, about five dunam caught on fire in Haifa's industrial zone. Eastern winds spread the fire and authorities feared that it could reach the auto garage district in the area. Auto workers were evacuated from the site.
Haifa's fire department also suspects arson in this incident.

13 Reasons to Be Optimistic About Healthcare, Courtesy of Rock Health
(Page 2 of 2)
7. It turns out that some mental health treatments, such as cognitive behavioral therapy, are just as effective when delivered online as they are when delivered in person. Cognitive Health Innovations offers subscription-based online therapy tools that walk users through cognitive-behavioral solutions to their everyday stresses, or connect them with their therapists via secure messaging. "We believe the Internet is the new frontier for mental health treatment," says co-founder Josh Susser.
8. Your doctor could soon have much easier access to the exploding supply of medical literature. It's difficult and expensive for doctors to keep up with the latest science in their fields. Docphin is aggregating articles from over 500 medical journals in an online "medical news platform" that curates content based on each user's interests. The service is available only to doctors at academic medical centers so far, but in its demo day presentation Docphin announced a new enterprise version that will be available to any medical center.
9. There are people out there who want to reward you for making healthy choices in your life. No, this isn't a retread of item No. 1. It's about HealthRally, a crowdfunding platform designed to help people achieve health goals by making it easier for their friends and family to rally around them and pledge cash rewards. A reward as low as $200 can triple success rates for people who are trying to quit smoking, says founder Zack Lynch, and can quintuple success in reaching weight-loss goals. The startup makes money by keeping a 7 percent cut of each reward.
10. For patients who can't afford the copayments on expensive drugs, there's still a way to get needed medications. Medmonk, another former Y Combinator company, is creating a Web-based database that pharmacists can consult for discount codes provided by pharmaceutical companies. "For a medication that costs $400, the pharmaceutical company will happily pay a $50 copay, because it means they're going to get the other $350 from an insurance company," explans founder Somaira Punjwani.
11. Your doctors will soon be able to access your CTs, X-rays, and other medical images in high resolution on their iPads. Nephosity has come up with a way to liberate medical images from the slow, expensive picture archive and communications systems (PACS) made by companies like GE, Philips, Siemens, and Fujifilm. Not only can doctors pan and zoom through the images on their tablets, but two doctors can collaborate remotely by sharing access to the same image in real time. Eventually, Nephosity hopes to replace the traditional PACS vendors.
12. Soon we could all be wearing 24/7 diagnostic arrays on our skin. Wearable wireless patches made by Sano Intelligence sample blood through microneedles and perform blood chemistry assays, relaying the results to doctors continuously. The company plans to test the technology first on hobbyists and athletes, then on patients participating in clinical trials. Distributing the patches to everyone with a medical condition could eventually form "a basis for a future model of health care" based on continuous monitoring, says co-founder Raj Gokal. The company plans to compete in the Nokia Sensing X Challenge.
13. It's getting easier to set up an exercise regimen and adhere to it. Almost two-thirds of Americans get no exercise at all. (Likely the same two-thirds who are overweight.) Part of the problem is that it's hard to design an exercise program that you can stick to week after week. Sessions offers an exercise coaching program that connects subscribers with coaches who help them develop and update realistic, 7-day plans that are integrated with their work schedules. In a pilot program in February involving 50 testers, the program helped people increase their exercist time by 35 percent, says founder Nick Crocker. The secret sauce at Sessions, he says, is achieving the "right mix of content, tone, timing, frequency, and medium" to keep users highly engaged.
* * *
Most of the teams emerging from Rock Health, with the exception of Agile Diagnosis, are in search of seed or Series A funding. Only two—Sessions and AchieveMint—have revenue so far, but all of the rest mentioned plausible ways to earn some (and that was definitely a first for me, after about five years of attending demo days like this one). Maybe none of these companies will change the world fundamentally—but all of them are doing something fundamentally useful. And it could be that myriad incremental changes, if they're going on in enough corners of the industry, will add up to a new healthcare system that we can live with.

Catch the crew wreaking havoc at the Nitehawk Theater in Williamsburg.
The Bad Brains have been around for a long time. Many of you were too young to see them when they were ripping shit up in '79, and REALLY ripping shit up in '82. But if you come to the Nitehawk Theater in Williamsburg tomorrow night, you'll get to see some of their most intense performances on the big screen. Oh, and BB bassist Darryl Jenifer will be there for a talk afterwards. Come on down and cop some hotsauce. Tickets are starting to fly so go cop 'em now.
Mass Appeal: New York has changed a lot since the time you and the Brains set up shop on the Lower East Side. How would you describe the LES back in the late '70s/early '80s?
Darryl Jenifer: The LES was just as you described— Gritty, fast-paced, smelly, with colorful characters from block to block; knife-wielding Puerto Ricans, pistol-toting pimps, nodding junkies, filthy streets, and hooker-riddled parks. I loved it.
MA: Your green bass is like B.B. King's Lucille— and like Lucille, she's seen a lot. Any interesting war stories associated with the instrument.
DJ: The Monster "put in work" for all eras— chunking and Rubba dub, funkin' for over 30. I once carved notches into the body for every day I had left on a grueling 3-month-long Euro touring, back in the days of the Berlin Wall, imagine a young Brains crushing a song like "Destroy Babylon" in Berlin '82.
MA: When the summer strikes in New York City, it seems like you'll see more Bad Brains/lightning-bolt-thru-the-Capitol t-shirts on passers by. What is it about that image and the record behind it that has smashed the test of time to bits?
DJ: Great artwork, with serious musicians mixed with a 'lil blood sweat and tears.
MA: You've got your own brand of hot sauce rockin' these days. Where did the inspiration for that come from?
DJ: Came from vintage punky reggae inspiration, Hardcore heroism, to battle modern day plager'schizm, complete with cable vision, from one's self imposed prison prism, ya herd?
MA: Yes, I.

A young man seeks answers when he finds out there is a man who looks exactly like him after watching a movie. The two are identical right down to the scar on their chest. The psychological thriller involves the two men and their girlfriends trying to figure out what is going on.
Well, I'd be lying if I told you I knew what happened in this movie. I have no idea what I just watched! It is a movie that makes you think, that's for sure, but I'm not so clear on what I thought! Go watch this movie and tell me if you can figure it out!

Five years after his perfect record, This Perfect World, Freedy Johnston proves why it never pays to get too close to a singer-songwriter. For a while there, Johnston made adult pop records that transcended the genre -- meaning, they were too smart for the heart, but too tender for the head. Loaded down with songs about New York City and the lonely people and "barefoot whores" who fill its crowded but sometimes barren spaces, This Perfect World sounded as though it was dipped in teardrops and wet kisses at the CD manufacturing plant, then hung to dry from the Statue of Liberty. Should have known the brilliance would have ended there; it always does. When you think it can't get any better, too often it doesn't. Never Home, his 1997 still-life, proved as much: lots of characters, but no character.
So it is with Blue Days, Black Night: Every now and then, a rose will peek through the cement cracks, but too often it's one dull melody after the next until the record sounds like a single featuring 11 variations on a lone, dismal theme. Johnston's whine -- always a strength, like Randy Newman's groan or Tom Waits' growl -- suddenly sounds like an impediment; hard to get to the heart when you can't stand looking at the skin. From the opening moments, when he goes out in a "homemade boat" and discovers "a drowned city was never saved" -- a metaphor whose meaning isn't worth struggling to retrieve from the bottom of the ocean -- Johnston comes off sounding tired, bored. Gone is the charged-up melancholy of "Bad Reputation" or "Tearing Down This Place" or his cover of "Wichita Lineman"; in its place is just this piercing whine about nothing at all, something about how he'd trade "my own course for the underwater life."

What made his earlier albums, especially Perfect World and its predecessor Can You Fly, so valuable was the way he turned everyday details into the stuff of epic disaster by setting the saddest stories to the most lovely pop imaginable. He can still write a decent line, still tell an honest story, but this is a record; you gotta have the songs, man. Familiar, even poignant, sometimes caustic are his tales of the ex-girlfriend who phones for a sympathetic ear during yet another breakup; or the one about the man leaving his empty home during a snowstorm, hearing the "hollow" sound of a door as it slams shut; or the one about two lovers who meet in a dream but never connect. The only problem is, there's nary a memorable tune among this cheapskate dozen. As it stands, Blue Day would have made a better collection of poetry.

The back of an awesome Dollymop ensemble by Kalico Delafey. I looove the way the jacket lines follow the curves of the corset and really emphasize the points. They hug the body so well and still show off the corset. Not pictured is the front, which fastens with four rows of Petersham ribbons tied in bows, but is still mostly open to show the body of the corset.
I can't wait to get a cute little black and purple jacket like this to go with my corset and an asymmetric skirt to match!

Herpes Simplex Virus
Herpes is a virus, specifically "herpes virus hominus". Simplex is a sub-category of the herpes virus family. Herpes Simplex is defined by five categories, types 1, 2, 6, 7, and 8. Generally herpes type 1 infects the mouth in humans and type 2 affects the genital area (sometimes referred to as the boxer short region), however recent studies indicate there is substantial contradiction to that former belief since more and more type 1 genital herpes cases are being diagnosed. Type 6 and 7 cause an infection of infancy (i.e. Roseola and Chickenpox) and Type 8 has been associated with Kaposi's sarcoma which is most often seen in HIV related conditions.
Herpes simplex virus (HSV) is extremely common in humans. It's estimated that as many as 80-90% of the entire human population experience oral herpes infections by the age of twelve years old. Some who are infected with oral herpes will have an acute episode that may appear as infected gums and lips, causing high fevers, but most oftentimes those who have oral herpes will have few if any symptoms. A substantial portion of the population has recurrent oral herpes infection, showing up as annoying "cold sores" on lips and sides of the mouth. Oral herpes does have a tendency to show up elsewhere on the face thus creating the position for not realizing that the infection actually is "oral herpes."
Herpes infects the nerve cells of the spinal cord in the pelvic region (as is the case for genital herpes) and of the nerve ganglia in the facial region at the base of the brain (as is the case for oral herpes). Herpes is a DNA-type virus, inserting its DNA directly into the nerve endings of the skin, which then leads along nerve fibers to the nucleus of the nerve cell. Once the viral information is inserted into the cell's nucleus, this blending of viral genetic information with human genetic information is permanent (meaning there is no cure and herpes virus remains in the body forever). The nerve cell then becomes somewhat of a "factory" for making more viral particles which can lead to recurring herpes outbreaks or conditions suitable for active viral shedding.
Herpes is not a "skin infection", but rather an infection of nerve cells, by way of the skin. It is not the "skin" that is infected but rather the nerve cell. When the infection becomes active again in the nucleus of the nerve cell, the viral particles flow back out, down the nerve, and out through little blisters that form in the skin. If the quantity of viral particles coming down the nerve cell isn't enough to form a blister, then a number of viral particles can be excreted through the skin without any symptoms at all.
"Genital herpes" and "oral herpes" refer to the location where the herpes infection is found on the individual, not the type of herpes. Most genital herpes is caused by HSV-2, but can be caused by HSV-1 in as many as 30% of new cases. Oral herpes is most often caused by HSV-1, and rarely if ever by HSV-2. Because these locations are often associated with a particular type of herpes (which seem to "take hold" in those particular locations more easily), medical people, websites and literature often equate the location with the herpes type. You might find that people speak of genitally-located herpes infections as HSV-2 and orally-located herpes as HSV-1. However, either virus can occur in either place, and in fact, potentially anywhere on the body depending on the point where infection takes place.
Someone with an HSV-1 lesion on the mouth can transmit the infection to an intimate partner through oro-genital contact with the genitalia of the other (oral sex), causing a recurrent HSV-1 lesion on the genitalia of the partner. Also, other sites of HSV infection can be produced, such as on a finger (often referred to as "herpetic whitlow") or elsewhere.
NOTE: Genital herpes is not always HSV-2 and oral herpes is not always HSV-1.
Genital herpes affects about 20-25% of Americans (that equates to 1 in 5 or even as many as 1 in 4), these numbers likely exceed 50 million Americans. Though most other STDs are seen to be decreasing in their rate of new infections, genital herpes remains one of the fastest growing infectious diseases in the world in absolute numbers of cases. However, Human Papillomavirus (HPV) infections are believed to outnumber herpes infection in both growth rate and likely in absolute numbers.
Generally genital herpes infections are not considered to be extremely contagious. Casual contact on toilet seats, chairs, and similar sorts of common social contact is almost certainly non-contagious, though there is some debate that exists on that issue. Anecdotal case reports of persons acquiring genital herpes through contact in hot tubs have been published though never proven. Obviously such matters would be very difficult to verify. The herpes virus does not survive outside the body for more than about 10 seconds, and although it can survive for slightly longer in warm, damp conditions (i.e. wet towels), it dies very quickly once exposed to the air.
However, genital herpes IS contagious, most oftentimes through direct skin-to-skin contact with an infected area. The method of transmission occurs through an active herpes blister on one person with a challenged or broken area of skin on the other person. For example, a male with an open blister could transmit the virus into the vagina of a female through even the tiniest abrasion in the vaginal mucosa of the female that could occur during intercourse. Similar modes of transmission can occur from female to male, male to male, and even female to female. Oral to oral transmission of either type of virus can also happen much the same way, through infected skin with active viral activity coming in contact with challenged or broken skin.
The virus may be transmitted to the penis, the vagina, the rectum, the mouth, and more rarely, the esophagus, the trachea, and even onto broken areas of skin that may appear anywhere on the body. The New England Journal of Medicine published a photograph of a herpes infection deep down inside the esophagus of a woman in April, 1999. Herpes simplex pneumonias have been reported. And, of course, the Herpes simplex infections of the brain in newborn babies who acquire infection during delivery are well known and may have disastrous consequences. Herpes simplex may also cause wide-spread rashes on the body with redness and swelling in these areas, similar to that of measles.
Once the viral DNA has been transmitted to the receiving person's nerve cells, the infection is permanent.
Viruses are very tiny, far smaller than bacteria and far smaller than the cells of the human body. Viruses are so small that they can even slip through the tiny inter-cellular holes of the "lamb-skin" type of condom which are normally small enough to prevent sperm cells from getting through. Latex-type condoms have been shown to be most protective against viral transmission, considering the condom covers the affected area completely during the sex act. Viral particles from an active lesion can become liquid borne from inside the condom and possibly leak out the base of the condom.
Herpes infections produce a number of different signs and symptoms. Traditional "first episode" herpes, most commonly described in women, are serious illnesses, with high fever, often severe outbreaks, painful urination and even inability to urinate. Hospitalization is sometimes necessary, with catheterization, IV fluids, and intravenous anti-viral medications being required. Most people diagnosed with a genital herpes infection don't describe having such severe symptoms; however, they might experience a cluster of small blisters surrounded by a red base on or around the genitalia. Often the blisters have already ruptured, leaving behind a cluster of ulcers which scab over and require as much as one to two weeks to heal. Once the blisters have ruptured, it's likely that a culture cannot be taken to determine if the blister is in fact herpes related. Thus, it is important to seek medical attention upon first notice of blisters to insure that an accurate culture can be taken and proper diagnosis occurs.
During the blister and ulcer phase, herpes lesions contain enormous amounts of viral particles and should be considered highly contagious to any challenged or broken skin it may come in contact with including but not limited to: the eye, mouth, esophagus, trachea, lungs, anus, urethra, penis and vagina.
In most cases herpes symptoms are subtle and often go undetected. Many have reported slight redness in the skin but without obvious lesions. This area, even without textbook symptoms should be considered contagious. Sometimes the skin will form tiny red bumps that don't blister, called "erythematous papules". Sometimes there are no signs on the skin at all but rather a "prodrome" such as urinary urgency, urinary frequency, and/or aching or tingling in the legs. Tingling has been described best as a sensation similar to a rub burn or mild sunburn. Also, itching, burning, tingling, pain or pressure at a previous or potential outbreak site may occur.
Many people with genital herpes and likely in oral herpes cases produce viral particles even when they have no symptoms whatsoever. These people are likely contagious even when they have no symptoms at all. This term is called "asymptomatic shedding."
In cases of women with genital herpes, herpetic lesions inside the vagina may only produce a vaginal discharge as an external symptom, resembling a yeast infection. It may be difficult without examining the patient to know whether the "yeast infection" is actually what it seems or if it is in fact genital herpes. Some women with both chronic yeast infections and genital herpes infections may find themselves confused as to which problem might be causing the symptoms. These women should be under the care of a trusted doctor and should not attempt to self-medicate until the symptoms have been clearly explained. Self diagnosing and treatment can only make genital herpes symptoms worse.
Viral shedding can occur from people who have acquired the infection asymptomatically. This means that people can acquire a herpes infection and have no symptoms, and later they can be shedding virus and therefore be contagious. In an article that appeared in the New England Journal of Medicine in 2000, Anna Wald concluded that "seropositivity [testing positive in a blood test] for HSV-2 is associated with viral shedding in the genital tract, even in subjects with no reported history of genital herpes." This means that people can be infected and that only their blood tests might be positive, that they may have no symptoms or few symptoms that are recognized as being caused by herpes, and yet that they may still be shedding virus and may be contagious.
