A beefed up version of my R*R review
A season 9 highlight and Oakley and Weinstein's last hurrah. There claim that it is the best written episode of the series does seem like a bit of a stretch though.
Amusing if throwaway Frostillicus b-story gives us quite a few laughs, including the Offensive Ballcap(show me your t- Hey!), Apu's Freak-E-Mart (later Nude-E-Mart) , some good Jasper lines(see below), and Apu's novelty pens (Oh no! Her clothes are coming off!).
For me, the Simpson Gene works as a one-off episode idea like HOMR, amd MagicalManFromHappyLand's explanation of Lisa's intelligence drop actually being a confidence drop seems plausible.
There are many great visual sequences including Bart and Homer watching TV, the pan across Lisa's mirror, Homer dancing to Lisa's off-key sax playing, Troy McClure's genetics film, When buildings collapse, Bart's homework grades and Homer talking to his male relatives.
On rewatch, I noticed that they used a lot of Ralph, including Lisa's future fantasy, instead of Milhouse.
Best Quotes:
Ms. Hoover: Very nice, Janie. Good use of pipe cleaners, Becky. DON'T open it Ralph!
I'll just give you a C-.
Grampa: Oh no, no. No! The George Raft look is dead! I wanted Audie Murphy.
Grampa: Maybe you're just a lousy cook. Ow!
Marge: I'll go get the Bactine.
Apu: Behold, the Can of Mystery! The label vanished many years ago. What strange wonders lie inside? Treasure? Dog food?
Lisa: Oh Kenny, Look at the interplay between light and shadow. It's so luminous and vibrant.
Kenny: Oh, thanks Lisa. I painted that one. The real one's in my garage.
(I don't think this joke gets noticed very much, but I love it)
Man: Sounds like she's hitting a baby with a cat.
Lisa: You have to listen to the notes she's not playing.
Man: I can do that at home.
Jasper: By gum, it worked. I've awakened in the future. Moon Pie. What a time to be alive.
Apu: Return to your state of living death at once, Sir!
Jasper: Is that you Apu? Whoa! Time has ravaged your once youthful looks.
Lisa: I am! I'm strongly opposed to Proposition 305.
Station Manager: You're against discount bus fares for War Widows?
Lisa: Uh, you bet I am.
Station Manager: OK. Make-up!
Lisa: I'm supposed to talk to you about Proposition 305..
Homer: Mooching War Widows.
Homer: Marge, get me your address book, 4 beers, and my Conversation Hat.

Gaining a pound or two a year after age 20 is the norm for most Americans, which explains why two-thirds of us are overweight by the time we hit our 50s. Not only does that put us at increased risk of heart disease and diabetes, but it can also increase a woman's chances of developing postmenopausal breast cancer. A new National Cancer Institute study of 72,000 women found that those who had a normal body mass index at age 20 and gained through the decades to become overweight—an increase of at least 5 BMI units, which is equivalent to a 30- pound gain for a 5- foot, 4- inch woman—had nearly double the risk of developing breast cancer after menopause compared to women who kept their weight steady as they aged. (The average 60- year-old woman's risk of developing breast cancer by age 65 is about 2 percent; her lifetime risk is 13 percent.)
[Want to Age Well? Avoid Midlife Weight Gain]
"Weight gain is a major risk factor for breast cancer," and could play as much of a role as other known risk factors, like family history of cancer, or the age at first menstruation or childbirth, says study coauthor Regina Ziegler, an epidemiologist at NCI. That's probably because the accumulation of excess body fat over time increases the level of estrogen in the body, which is thought to fuel the growth of most postmenopausal breast cancer tumors. Interestingly, the study also found that women who started off overweight or obese at age 20 didn't have any increase in breast cancer risk, which contradicts other research showing that obesity increases the risk of postmenopausal breast cancer as well as several other cancers including colon, endometrial, kidney, and esophageal, according to the NCI's website.
[Weight Loss Surgery Cuts Obese Women's Cancer Risks]
Unfortunately, few women are able to maintain their post-college dress size, a testament to how tough it is to prevent that mid-life bulge. (Nearly 57 percent of the study participants failed to do so.) "As you progress through mid-life, you'll find your metabolism naturally slows down," says Jana Klauer, a New York City physician and nutritionist specializing in obesity treatment and author of How the Rich Get Thin. In other words, if you maintain the same Big Mac habits you had in college, you'll pack on pounds. So what does it take to keep the scale steady? "A lot of effort," says Klauer. Here are her 7 steps for beating the odds:
1. Cut back on calories. "Your metabolic rate peaks in your 20s," says Klauer, because your body is still adding bone mass and churning out a lot of hormones to keep you fertile. After age 30, your metabolism slows by about 5 to 7 percent per decade. That means if you were eating about 2,500 calories per day to maintain your weight in your 20s, you'd have to eat about 125 to 175 fewer calories each day to keep the scale from inching upward. By the time you hit your 50s, you'd need to cut back by 300 to 500 calories a day to keep the same waistline you had in your 20s.
2. Sweat, sweat, sweat. If you don't want to cut your food intake too much, increase your calorie-burning activities. Those who aren't counting calories probably need to exercise for about an hour each day, every day of the week to truly keep the pounds off, according to a recent study published in the Journal of the American Medical Association. The researchers looked at 34,000 nondieting women (average age 54) and found that those who worked out for an hour a day—the equivalent of a brisk walk—kept themselves slim through the years. While those who worked out less gained weight, they still benefitted from lower risks of heart disease and diabetes, compared to their sedentary counterparts.
[Exercise Can Help Prevent Weight Gain, but It Won't Be Easy]
3. Lift weights. Muscle burns more calories than fat, so building muscle helps keep your metabolism revved up as you age. Unfortunately, your body begins to shed muscle in your 40s if you don't do anything to maintain it. Doing resistance training with free weights or weight machines at the gym three or four days a week can go a long way towards helping you retain muscle and boost your metabolism. Klauer recommends hiring a personal trainer for three or four sessions to learn the proper form and prevent injuries.
4. Be wary of hormonal birth control. Birth control pills, intrauterine devices that release progesterone, and especially the progesterone-only shot, Depo-Provera, can cause weight gain in some women. A 2009 study published in the American Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology found that women who used the Depo shot gained an average of 11 pounds over three years compared to an average gain of 3 to 4 pounds among women who used other forms of contraception. But the study also found that only 25 percent of Depo users gained a significant amount of weight, and Klauer says the same holds true for other forms of hormonal contraception. For example, some women gain 15 pounds on a particular brand of pill, while others don't. "It's extremely individual and probably related to genetics," she adds. If you're taking hormones and have noticed recent weight gain of five or ten pounds with no obvious explanation, she says, you might want to try switching to a different formulation to see if that helps.

As if losing the season opener at home isn't bad enough, star QB, Aaron Rodgers, must now wear a 49ers jersey throughout the week. Accoring to TMZ, Aaron Rodgers asked Boyz II Men to sing the National Anthem, and in reply Nathan Morris made a friendly bet in which Rodgers couldn't refuse. If the Packers lost the game, Rodgers would have to rock the niners jersey all week, and if Frisco lost the game, Morris would have to wear a Packers jersey. Fair? I think not. But Rodgers must've been pretty confident prior to this week's kickoff.
However, the only thing that goes in favor for Rodgers is that he faces our Chicago Bears this Thursday night, meaning a short prep week for Rodgers in that Niners jersey.

Increase Gas Mileage-Guaranteed
Contact Information
You must Sign In / Join the Community to view seller's contact information.
Date posted: 28-Nov-2013Fuel Booster
Guaranteed 5% Minimum Savings
No Additives!
Increased Fuel Economy & Efficiency
Engine Runs Cleaner With Higher Performance
Simple Installation
Quickly Pays For Itself
Works on all engines: Gas, Diesel, or Propane
The theory for explaining the increased efficiency generated by the Global Fuel Booster can be described as a magnetic field produced inside the Fuel Booster. The magnetic field surrounding the fuel line creates a change in polarity of the fuel ions, causing them to repel each other as they pass through the unit. This produces a finer fuel vapor which results in better combustion and fuel savings.
The Fuel Booster is a simple, inexpensive method of fuel savings without cutting existing fuel lines. Installing the Fuel Booster will guarantee you a minimum fuel savings of 5%, with most people realizing a savings of 10% or greater!
Anyone can install the Fuel Booster. Simply locate your automobile's gas line at the closest point to the carburetor or fuel injectors.
If you drive a lot, you will see the savings sooner. I saw my mileage increased after driving 100 miles. It works instantly. It will pay for itself in days or months, depending on how much you drive.
If your car requires premium gas, you can now use regular gas and your car will run fine. (Note the company doesn't promote this, but it worked for me and others that have tried it.)
Shipping can be paid by paypal.com or credit card.

If you are a mail-in voter and you have not received your mail-in ballot, you can vote on a "provisional" ballot at the Elections Office or at one of the polling stations on Election Day. The Elections Office will examine provisional ballots after Election Day to determine their legitimacy. Call the county Elections Office at 463-4371 with any elections questions.
First results consisting of mail-in and early ballots counted before Election Day will be posted on the county website at mx2.co.mendocino.ca.us/elections/election_results.php not long after the polls close at 8 p.m. Results will be updated two or three times throughout the evening, until about 2 a.
Final election results which in recent years has included many mail-in ballots dropped off at the polls on Election Day won't be available until Registrar of Voters Susan Ranochak certifies the election.
Certified elections results for the June primary must be announced by Tuesday, July 3.

So, as a former Sailor, let me see if I have this straight: in Navy boot camp one of the tasks which you are taught is firefighting; you even go through a firefighting simulation, burning building and all.

Well I remember, #7, those days of boot camp firefighting. My group always seemed to figure that for some reason I was the one to hold the hose nozzle end, and get the backlash of water and soot.

OP, thanks for posting this, but I have to correct you on a detail: RADM Kirby is not a submariner. That pin he´s wearing is a Surface Warfare pin.What particularly ironic about RADM Kirby is that he once served on USS Forrestal !However, his expertise (if you want to call it that) is as a public affairs officer - a spokesnoid.I´ve also wondered why the Navy would need camo uniforms, and have taken the opportunity to ask that of several sailors I´ve met in the past few years. None of them could really say why.Bring back the old bell bottom dungarees, for crying out loud. Who CARES if they´re not "wrinkle free" - they´re WORK uniforms, for crying out loud!I served during the changeover period from that stupid airline pilot uniform of the early 70s (the double-breasted suit coat & tie, with the combination cap), and was lucky enough to see the ´Cracker Jack´ uniform reinstated. In the early 70s, we had that stupid, uncomfortable work uniform that was the dark blue shirt and dark blue trousers. Thank goodness that awful idea was replaced by the dungarees.I see also that the Air Force has a digi-camo work uniform. How stupid is that? Click Here if you Like this Comment
Don´t worry the top brass are just stupid about their own uniforms. Everyone in D.C. as forgotten about the Pentagon being bombed and are back to wearing dress uniforms made out of polyester every day at work. Click Here if you Like this Comment
#22, we wear turnouts aboard ship as well. However, when/if a fire does happen in your workspace (or occurs as a result of combat), no one´s going to be automatically wearing them. There´s a chance that this uniform´s probably going to become a permanent part of your skin before you can even reach the damage control locker. Click Here if you Like this Comment
To understand some of the issues look at three GAO reports (GAO-10-669R, May 28, 2010; GAO-11-682R, Jun 30, 2011; and GAO-12-707, Sep 28, 2012). While the reports focus on ground combat uniforms, the issues are the same: cost and comfort. A fire retardant uniform will cost over twice what a non-fire retardant uniform will cost. And there will be comfort issues. As for the color scheme, it will hide paint and grease stains. Furthermore, if a sailor in the water does not make a proper splash pattern, the search helicopter will not see the victim, no matter what color uniform he or she is wearing.

Tomorrow (May 15, 2012) I am shutting down two blogs that have been a part of The Doulos Group for the past two years. I am not shutting them down because they are unimportant of because they are no longer relevant. I am shutting them down in order to focus my attention on the things in life and business that I am most passionate about.
Those things are simply:
- I am going to help people design a life-style that blends life and business to fulfill their dreams.
- I am going to focus my efforts on helping my clients through the process of discovery, design, and delivery of their passion within their definition of success.
- I am going to focus my efforts on Baby Boomers and Gen-Xers who are looking for a way to reinvent retirement.
With these simple rules in place I hope that everyone who comes to visit will find something worth while, something that makes sense, and something that helps them design success!
Come back often and let's get this party started!!!

Halycon mulls Terminator MMO
Halcyon Games production executive Mic Rogers told IncGamers that idea of making a Terminator MMO is something the company is considering.
"You know what, it's something we've looked at … and it's an interesting space for sure," said Rogers when approached about the possibility.
Halcyon Games is a subsidiary of The Halcyon Company who owns the rights to the Terminator franchise.

The democrats could certainly find the 16 members needed to keep this failure of a leader without trying to hard if 16 Republicans abstain. Why wouldn´t they? He always plays right into their hands. Boehner is the best friend a liberal/Progressive/Communist could have. In fact, I don´t know why he doesn´t switch parties.
I have it on very good authority that Boehner is a personal friend of Obama! That would explain a lot of his cooperation with the Democrats!!
OP: Newt Gingrich or Allen West - there is no Constitutional requirement that the Speaker be an elected member.Do it.
There´s a better chance my Unicorn will fly to the moon than this.
I´ve just written to my congressman asking him to do just that. BTW, #1, none of the Dems are going to vote for him anyway so they do not have 16 members to "change their minds".
We need a new speaker.
We need a new Party.
I ditto #8 and #9 and all of the above....are we not screaming for 2 years that this guy needs to hit the road....I have send tons of emails to this Kleenex abuser to grow a spine, to no avail....McConnell isn´t any better and the whole Republican party better grow up and show some backbone.Just think these, "I am better than you are" nerds represent us....you feel represented???
They´re tooo chicken to go against Boehner. ...he will fire them from their committees... I know the repubs could find a better leader. Boehner is by far the worse leader in history. All he cares about is golf, what the WP, & NY Times says about him. Newt said by allowing the gov to be shut down he got a balanced budget & welfare reform.
Boehner has to go. What are the Republicans doing keeping such a spineless moron as their leader. Boehner has to go; many of us are losing patience with the Republicans.
Please explain to this ignoramus´it takes 16 to remove the speaker´ - if that is so, it should be very possible to remove Boehnor, and if the speaker doesn´t have to be elected I think Allen West would be ideal - he speaks the truth and he isn´t afraid of anyone.
It's not a revenue problem; it's a spending problem. Boehner doesn't get it and he is punishing conservative votes. Let's dump him.
Johnny "Bourbon Breath" Boehner is a bought and paid for stooge for the other side. He´s rolling over like the lapdog he is. He is an absolute disgrace.
Speaker Boehner seems to think it is just "politics as usual". Put someone in the leadership position who cannot be blackmailed. No one available...what a shame.

US-Backed Syrian "Rebel" Commander Chased Out Of Country By Al Qaeda
Submitted by Tyler Durden on 12/12/2013 - 09:50Syria may be old news as any escalation has been put on hold at least until next summer, but the hilarity resulting from the bungled US foreign policy intervention in the country lingers. The latest chapter in John Kerry's book of "Diplomacy for Idiots" is the case of General Salim Adris, a so-called moderate the top Western-backed commander of the Free Syrian Army, who was literally run out of the country by the more extremist, Al Qaeda based factions among the Syrian CIA armed and Qatar funded "rebel" forces. As the WSJ eloquently puts it, "Islamist fighters ran the top Western-backed rebel commander in Syria out of his headquarters, and he fled the country, U.S. officials said Wednesday." Any references to brave Sir Robin are purely accidental. It got better when the same Al Qaeda fighters "took over key warehouses holding U.S. military gear for moderate fighters in northern Syria over the weekend." In other words, as we repeatedly forecast over the summer, the US is now once again arming Al Qaeda fighters with weapons that sooner or later will be used against the US, at a time of the CIA's choosing.

Fact, Fiction, And 11 Bitcoin Myths
Submitted by Tyler Durden on 12/12/2013 - 09:34Haters gonna hate, but the "Bitcoin bubble" meme has become the financial equivalent of a viral online cat video – wildly popular but pretty vacuous. In an effort to separate fact from fiction, ConvergEx's Nick Colas reviews 11 bitcoin myths (and dispels them). Still, there's no doubt that the public is entranced: there are now 3x more Google searches for "bitcoin" than "Western Union", and 33x more than for "Gold coins". We started writing about bitcoin back in February because it was – and still is – a fascinating invention (for better or worse). How it plays out, we will just have to wait and see.

Living In A Steel Box: Londoners Live In Shipping Containers Due To Soaring Rents
Submitted by Tyler Durden on 12/12/2013 - 09:05With even Bank of England head Mark Carney admitting UK housing prices may be a little bubbley (and affordability plumbing new depths), RT reports that a hostel in east London has come up with the ingenious idea, to try and solve homelessness amid soaring rents in the British capital, of converting a shipping container from China into a tiny low cost home for hard up and desperate Londoners. The boxes, called mYpads, cost GBP75 per week - around one-quarter of the rent of most distant yet commutable borough in London - and are affordable for even those on minimum wage.

November Retail Sales Beat Modest Expectations Despite Another Decline In Clothing Sales
Submitted by Tyler Durden on 12/12/2013 - 08:53There was much concern that heading into the holiday season the US consumer would hunker down, which is why the just released retail sales came as a bit of good news: the headline and core (ex-autos) numbers both beat expectations of 0.6% and 0.2%, printing at 0.7% and 0.4% respectively, and refuting rumors of a big consumer slowdown into the holiday season. On the other hand, core retail sales, ex-autos, showed a declining growth rate, following the 0.5% increase in October, declining to 0.4% in the past month, while the ex-autos and gas number remained flat from October to November, or 0.6%. It is unclear if this number is good enough to send futures sliding on the back of the horrible claims report which has so far managed to push futures into green territory, but with the bulk of the monthly change contained in the seasonal adjustment, any 0.1% increments of change or beats of expectations are very much noise.

Initial Claims Spike Most Since Sandy To Worst In 9 Months
Submitted by Tyler Durden on 12/12/2013 - 08:39While the Labor Department admits "difficulties in seasonally adjusting" the data, this is the biggest spike ex-Sandy in the all-important initial claims data since 2005. At 368k (versus 320k expectations), this is the worst miss sicne Sandy also (absent the government shutdown debacles) and the Labor department says no states were estimated. This is the worst initial claims print since March... just enough bad news to provide the Fed some leeway? Of course, with enough statistical noise to sink an economy, it would appear another government-inspired data series has become next-to-useless ammo for the baffle 'em with bullshit brigade.

Gold And Silver Slammed
Submitted by Tyler Durden on 12/12/2013 - 08:13No new news as a catalyst this morning but it appears someone decided it was highly inappropriate for the precious metals to be holding their gains as stocks and bonds revert back to pre-payrolls 'taper' levels. Gold and Silver have been monkey-hammered lower this morning as heavy volume hit futures markets about 419ET and 645ET. Futures were not halted. Some speculation that gold's drop followed positive comments from Ukraine's foreign minister but that seems a stretch...

Cops Per Capita: Who Has The World's Most And Least Concentrated Police Force
Submitted by Tyler Durden on 12/12/2013 - 08:02The more the cops, the safer: that's what conventional wisdom says. The contrarian view, of course, is that when police per capita are far above average, there is usually a reason. Or, it the distribution could be just pure noise, depending on how much money can be allocated to police budgets or how prone to cop extortion a given country is. The chart below doesn't provide a definitive answer, with Russia leading the world in most police per 100,000 persons according to the UN and ONS, while Greece and Serbia mark the trailing end. Still, those who would rather avoid police brutality and paying a bribe to corrupt law enforcers, may be urged to avoid the left end of the chart below...

"Something Has Changed" In Overnight Trading As Futures No Longer Track EURJPY Ramps
Submitted by Tyler Durden on 12/12/2013 - 07:08It has been another session of overnight weakness, in which, to quote Deutsche Bank, "something has changed" as ES algos no longer track every tick of the EURJPY (or other JPY pair variants). Usually in such transition periods where the robots are not sure how to trade risk based on highly leveraged inputs, things go bump in the night, and they did just that with the E-Mini trading just off its overnight lows, despite a notable rise in the EURJPY from yesterday's close. Keep a close eye on the now traditional pre-market ramp in the EURJPY - if unaccompanied by an increase in the E-mini, it may be time to quietly exit stage left.

Goldman's Q&A On Stanley Fischer As The Next Fed Vice Chairman
Submitted by Tyler Durden on 12/12/2013 - 06:35Since the bank that decides what happens at the NY Fed, and by implication, at the broader Federal Reserve system, is none other than Goldman Sachs, it would be informative to read what none other than Goldman thinks of Ben Bernanke's thesis advisor Stanley Fischer, formerly head of the Bank of Israel, as the next vice chairman - as he is now actively rumored to become shortly. Conveniently, here is just such a Q&A from Goldman's Jan Hatzius - the man who feeds Bill Dudley all his economic and monetary insights over lobster sandwiches at the Pound and Pence.

Chinese State-Run Media Embarrasses Itself By Proclaiming "Unexpected Benefits Of Smog"
Submitted by Tyler Durden on 12/11/2013 - 22:11In case you weren't aware, several of China's major cities have experienced record-breaking, extremely dangerous levels of smog in recent days. Only today, Chinese authorities raised the "safe" level of pollution to reduce the frequency of alerts. So how did China's state-run media decide to respond to this environmental and public health disaster? With ridiculous propaganda about the "unexpected benefits" of smog of course. You have to see this to believe it.

The Federal Reserve: 100 Years Of Boom And Bust
Submitted by Tyler Durden on 12/11/2013 - 21:42"If we evaluate an organization's performance by what it promised when it was created, the Federal Researve has clearly failed the American people," is how Murray Sabrin concludes this documentary on the first 100 years of the Fed's reign. The sad truth, he details, is that "the USD has lost more than 95% of its purcahsing power since the Fed was created and the cost of living has skyrocketed since Nixon severed the last linkage between the USD and gold in 1971." In short, the revolution of 1913 shifted power from individuals, communities and states to the federal government and its powerful allies in the private sector.

What America's Companies Really Think
Submitted by Tyler Durden on 12/11/2013 - 21:18If one believes the various US diffusion indices - among which key are the assorted regional Fed surveys the monthly PMI data - and listens to the pithy soundbites of their respondents, the US economy has hardly ever been better (of course, that 60% of "growth" in the past year has been due to inventory accumulation on hope that the consumer end demand will finally come is neither here nor there). However, we don't exactly believe said indices. Instead, to get a true sense of what is going on, it is always better to listen directly to those who are not only deep in the trenches, but are also accountable to their shareholders every quarter: the various CEOs and CFOs of America's public corporations. Below, courtesy of Bloomberg chief economist Rich Yamarone, who has compiled a selection of Q3 earnings call soundbites, is an indicative snapshot of the US economy as seen most recently through the prism of executives in a wide range of industries.

New York City Has The Most Homeless Children Since The Great Depression
Submitted by Tyler Durden on 12/11/2013 - 20:51At a time when Wall Street is absolutely swimming in wealth, New York City is experiencing an epidemic of homelessness. According to the New York Times, the last time there was this many homeless children in New York City was during the days of the Great Depression. And the number of homeless children in the United States overall recently set a new all-time record. Americans like to think of themselves as "the wealthiest nation on the planet", and yet the number of young kids that don't even have a roof over their heads at night just keeps skyrocketing. There truly are "two Americas" today, and unfortunately most Americans that live in "good America" don't seem to really care too much about the extreme suffering that is going on in "bad America".

Andrews 28: Best Club Racer
Andrews 28: Best Club Racer
At first glance, the Andrews 28 looks like a MORC racer from days gone by, with a high, initially unappealing cabin top. But with that high cabin top, high freeboard, and plumb bow, the boat has an incredible amount of interior volume. In an era where everything else is low-slung, racy and angular, this one somehow manages to carry all that interior volume and still sail gracefully through the water, upwind and downwind. While it's certainly capable of doing a lot more than banging around the cans, this little Alan Andrews rocket is exactly what you want for weeknight club racing.
The boat is a result of the boat builder, Ivan Ivandic's love for the Laser 28. With a desire for a higher-tech and drier boat, Ivandic took it upon himself to build his own. Originally from the Czech Republic, Ivandic once owned a powerboat-building company in his native country, but when it came time to build his dream boat, he moved to Vancouver, Canada, with his brother, Vladimer, contacted designer Alan Andrews, built a factory, and started working on the 28 under the name of Sylvana Yachts.
"The Andrews 28 is a well-executed project that benefited from its three-year development cycle," said Stewart. "It's from a hands-on builder that had a clear vision of the yacht he wanted, a modern Laser 28."
The deck layout reflects both the designer and the builder's years of racing experience. The tiller is well aft, but the boat's wide beam allows the helmsman an unobstructed view of the headsail, which is flown from a continuous-line roller-furling unit. The cockpit was comfortable. The finish is outstanding, and the boat sails incredibly well, with a light feel to the helm. Unlike many boats, its slippery hull makes nary a noise as it passes through the water. This is a result of Andrew's keen attention to the design of a boat's underbody and foils.

The Encore 5, Five Condos For Five Hobbies
Filed under: Real Estate Developments
A new condo tower in Charlotte, North Carolina promise some of the priciest and most distinctive penthouses in the city. The 20-story Encore condo tower includes the Encore 5 – five 7,000-square-foot units priced from $4.5 million to $5.5 million which are pitched at five specific types of buyers: the art collector, the food enthusiast, the wine connoisseur, the technology buff and the consummate entertainer. So far, condos in the area haven't sold at this price but the developer behind the Encore believes that these five penthouses can sell because they are each aimed at that one special person who will love the idea. Each of the five penthouses will be specifically designed to incorporate the interests of the penthouse buyer.
The Encore project will preserve the 81-year old Carolina Theatre at North Tryon and East Sixth streets and offers three floors of office space, a restaurant level, theater lounge floor, an amenities floor for residents and a 1,400-seat auditorium for movies, live entertainment, charitable benefits and corporate events. The developer Jim Donnelly of Pursuit Group Charlotte told the Charlotte Observer that he has "contracts on nine units priced from $1.75 million to $5.5 million" and hopes to break ground this summer.

Albany, N.Y. (AP) - A New York State Trooper is expected to fully recover after being stabbed in the neck in the Empire State Plaza in Albany.
Officials say Trooper Rodney L. Smith was approached by an individual who indicated he was new to the area. As the officer checked his identification, police say the man stabbed the trooper in the neck with a steak knife.
The trooper managed to fend off the assailant, but suffered additional wounds to his neck, face, arms and hands.
The 15-year veteran was rushed to Albany Medical Center for surgery.
The stabbing happened about 3:15 p.m. on Sunday. State police are still looking for the attacker. Anyone with information is asked to call the New York State Police at 518-473-5164.

The renowned research excellence of Einstein's faculty can sometimes extend to the undergraduate students who participate in the College of Medicine's Summer Undergraduate Research Program (SURP), as David Gaita recently learned. Mr. Gaita was among the 50 college students who took part in SURP this past summer.
Working in the laboratory of Dr. Linda Jelicks, Mr. Gaita had the opportunity to conduct cutting-edge research using resources in Einstein's MicroPET Core Facility. His studies resulted in an award-winning image at the 2012 World Molecular Imaging Conference, held in Dublin, Ireland.
Along with his mentors, Dr. Jelicks and Wade Koba, Mr. Gaita won the "Novel Application Image of the Year category of the Siemens Preclinical Image of the Year contest. The competition recognizes and showcases images acquired as part of cutting-edge preclinical research using Siemens imaging systems.
For his summer research project, Mr. Gaita tested the feasibility of utilizing a widely used medical radioisotope, Technetium-99m (Tc-99m-MAA), to image the live goldfish brain. The experiment was conducted using a novel device that immobilizes aquatic animals in their natural environment. The device was specially designed and constructed by Mr. Koba, who is operations manager of the MicroPET facility, along with faculty member Dr. Eugene Fine. (Einstein has filed a patent application related to this research, which is available for licensing.) Results from the experiment demonstrated the ability to obtain repeated imaging without harm to the fish.
The award-winning image showed that, following injection into the tail vein, Tc-99m-MAA readily localizes to the gills, brain, and an air-breathing cavity called the suprabranchial chamber of the goldfish.
"This research has laid the groundwork for the possibility of live-imaging of conscious zebra fish, a very important biomedical research animal model used in such diverse fields as genetics, developmental biology, cancer, and immunology, noted Dr. Jelicks, who is associate professor of physiology and biophysics.
SURP is offered each summer to undergraduates with a strong background and interest in science an opportunity to conduct research in one of Einstein's many outstanding laboratories.

I want to thank SuperDave for the good alum. head. I had him ship it to me. I was in need of a head. I want to bump this back to the top. Thanks L Hud
I will not be present for the Pigeon Forge meet but have a gentleman from my home town going for a non-hudson event and stated he is willing to set out some repo glove boxes for a few hours over a day or so. So interested be on the look out for them. He will be taking a variety from 41thru 54 in limited numbers and small window of time.

Russ, send some over the door window rubber seals for a stepdown convertible. I'll be looking for him.
