Smith: Scharf staying in race is key
By MARCIA C. SMITH
HUNTINGTON BEACH – People tell him that he's crazy, that this 883-mile loop through the desert is too grueling, that his No. 910 buggy nicknamed "Fu Manchu" is a relic and that the last thing his body needs is to take another beating. But John Scharf is a stubborn man, a fiery 57-year-old living without a restrict

Smith: Angels wrap up a season gone bad
By MARCIA C. SMITH
ANAHEIM – From Section 510, in the top deck of Angel Stadium, the home team didn't look so bad. Of course, from that height, you couldn't see much of the down-and-out-of-the-playoff-race Angels who faced the Tampa Bay Rays on Labor Day night.

We watched Angels slugger Josh Hamilton come to the plate in the first inning of Wednesday night's game, and we stared. Not at his bat. Not at his stance.

After looking at the latest workstation from Hewlett-Packard, it seems a shame that the company still can't seem to keep its PC house in order. The Z620 Workstation is physically sound, well designed and easy to service without tools, and its benchmark performance was off the charts.
The mid-tower system received by the CRN Test Center was stacked to the rafters, starting with its processors. This tested system was packing a pair of Intel's latest E5 Xeon processor family, in particular the eight-core E5-2690 running at 2.9GHz. This translates to 16 total cores capable of generating 32 processor threads with access to 24 GB of 1,600MHz DDR3 error-correcting memory.
For graphics, the unit was equipped with a Quadro 4000 from Nvidia, with 2 GB of its own GDDR5 memory moving data across a 256-bit memory interface at a maximum speed close to 90 GB per second. According to Nvidia, the Quadro 4000 can process 890 million triangles per second. For storage, the Z620 held a pair of 300-GB SAS drives plus a 256-GB SSD SAS, all controlled by an LSI 9212-4i SAS RAID card. The operating system was 64-bit Windows 7 Pro.

I am about to form a steering committee to help us chart a course for growth and development in the Dragon class in North America (presumptuous, I know, but it has to be done). I have also made some good friends among the guys who sail 30 square metres here in the US and in Canada and they are interested in many of the same things. We are beginning to share ideas and information with one another, and that is a big help to me, but what about the community here at the WBF?
Anyone here have any experience with class promotion and long range planning? Anyone got any ideas to help us get the word out that we feel strongly that these are classes worth talking about?
In both of our cases (the Dragon and the 30 square metre), the European fleets are thriving. New boats are being delivered all the time and there is a long lead time on getting a new boat delivered. Even as far away as Australia there has been an influx of newer Dragons brought out from Europe and their fleets are growing at a solid pace. But not here. Not in North America. Like any true believer, I have always felt that if people could just see the boats and see what they were, that they would just HAVE to have one. Naive, I know, but it's just being honest in my case.
So, what would you do to get the word out? I would appreciate any ideas coming from any angle. For more information on both the Dragon class and the 30 square class in North America take a look at www.usdragons.org and www.squareskerryyachts.net. There are some pretty cool photos at both sites and you can get a feel for where we are by taking a look around.

Inviting Writing: Romancing Guava Paste
Our theme for this month's Inviting Writing series is "first tastes": foods that were a revelation the first time you tried them. This week's entry comes from Elizabeth Bastos, who shared a scary food story about artichokes last year. She blogs about "humor, food, home, parenting and cheese" at Goody Bastos.
A Rebound Relationship with Guava Paste
By Elizabeth Bastos
Years ago, when I was in a complicated relationship with a Venezuelan, I went to his home country and had a cheese arepa for the first time—and that was supposed to be the big deal. When I got home, broken-up-with and sad, my friends said: That's too bad about Jose. How were the arepas? And I said they were okay.
The big deal for me was the guava paste. Not to get all magical realism, One Hundred Years Of Solitude about it, but the first time I tasted guava paste, it was the muted dead red of heartbreak, a sun just before it sets under the horizon, a thin slab that was sad/happy, sweet/tart and just slightly crystalline. Tears, maybe? I had a bit on top of a piece of cheese called queso tropical after one of my last arguments with Jose about the meaning of love and betrayal, and whether Americans can ever really be sensual.
Queso tropical distinguishes itself in no other way than that it is the perfect foil for guava paste. It is salty, coarse in texture, even squeaky. It's the work-a-day piano man to guava's torch singer. I said to Jose, through my tears: You are too passionate, like an artist, of course you are, but what is this cheese? What is this jelly on top? Is it jelly? A preserve of some kind? It's definitely not strawberry. Or peach. More important, can I have some more? So I brought two bricks of guava paste home with me on the plane, plus some terra cotta knick-knacks, but they all broke.
When I eat guava paste even now, years later, I can't help thinking: Wow. How can it be that for some people this fragrant, pomegranate-colored, ear-lobe-textured gem of a food is mundane? For me, it's An Experience, perhaps The Experience. They don't realize how lucky they are.

Finally let me stress we are stressed forget about the fact economy's not generating jobs -- Are not generating kids it's true disaster recovery is putting the brakes on births.
The US birth rate is now officially the lowest it has -- 25 years which tells me one of two things is going on one.
We're just not in the mood advocates and an economy like this -- to do.
Which is not in the mood to -- it.
Either way forget about voting -- our wallet turns out a lot of us are voted with the whole lower torso surrounding our wallet.
This could be the one stat that experts are missing.
The offspring that we are not creating.
Forget the spread -- focus on what is not going on under the seats.
And the excuse for what's not going on under those seats.
Not tonight honey I have a recovery a court let's just Kabul while the economy tumbles has life gotten so taxing that we put I don't know -- even -- So worried about what Washington spending that we're now all spent.
Because it is one thing to try to delay kids until there's a recovery.
But -- this one takes as long as I suspect a lot of folks might be too old to lead in many kids once we have that -- Now wouldn't that be a kick in the pants the economy is off to the races but it's too late for us to bother taking --

The U.S. Postal Service says this is the busiest day for mailing holiday cards. What is it?
ANSWER: December 19th.
In Australia, amazing progress is being made on a contraceptive pill for men.
The new pill could work as a temporary vasectomy – and allows men to play a role in family planning without affecting their fertility.
And, the scientists assure us, this miracle drug does not change a man's sex drive. (Telegraph)
Going to the doctor is never really an enjoyable experience, but a visit to the gynecologist is that much worse. Regardless of whether your doctor is a woman or a man, lying there in stirrups is an uncomfortable experience. But what if your doctor was ridiculously gorgeous? Like supermodel hot? Would that make the experience better or just even more mortifying?
If you lived in Chile, you might be lucky (or unlucky) enough to have Manuel Rico as your OB/GYN – and there is no doubt that this guy is Rico Suave in every sense of the word! He is, by far, the hottest gynecologist in the world. Originally from Spain, Manuel Rico isn't just a 24-year-old doctor, this hottie is also 2010's "Spanish Beauty King."
Women all over the world probably fantasize about being on their back for this guy – unfortunately their dreams probably don't involve a pap smear! (BuzzFeed − with photos)

The U.S. Geological Survey confirms one of the booms in Clintonville was a 1.5 magnitude earthquake. It was at 12:15 a.m. Tuesday.
Click here to view the report.
Clintonville administrator Lisa Kuss said Thursday an engineering firm will install four ground seismology monitors around the city to determine whether there's an epicenter to the noises that seem to be underground. Ruekert & Mielke, of Waukesha, will analyze the data once engineers get a good reading. Kuss says it's not known how long that will take. She says the city will spend up to $7,000 on the effort.

Galapagos, San Cristobal Island
Known as "Las Islas Encantadas" (The Enchanted Isles), the Galapagos islands are located on the equator approximately 800 km west of the Ecuador mainland. More than half of the islands is national parkland under the protection of the nation of Ecuador, a stable Latin American democracy recently dollarized. The Galapagos Islands are the pride of Ecuador and are internationally renowned as the place where Charles Darwin witnessed unique animal species cut off from the natural evolutionary processes of the continents and advanced his theories of Evolution. The Galapagos is mostly famous for its many indigenous species including marine iguanas, huge land tortoises, sea lions, blue-footed boobies, albatross, manta-rays, and finches.
The Galapagos also has world class surf. Wavehunters' focus is the island of San Cristobal where there are more than a half-dozen outstanding waves, at least 4 of them world class, 2 of which are square tubes with Hawaiian power. San Cristobal island is unique because it picks up BOTH North and South Pacific swells equally well. (Note, there are other waves on other islands in the Galapagos but most of them are closed off due to park regulations and access is difficult to impossible).
The waves on San Cristobal occur on the southwest and northwest facing sides of the island where they are exposed to ground swells from both the North and South Pacific. Though the Galapagos has waves year-round, the optimal "surf season" is from December until May. The reason is that the cold Humboldt current which travels northward up the coast of Chile and Peru during the Austral winter months of May-November creates prevailing onshore wind conditions during this period, with the wind and swell coming from the same direction.
The hot season from Dec-May sees the diminishing influence of this current, with hotter, sunnier offshore conditions ideal for surfing. The North swells occur most commonly from December until March. The south swell, despite pulses from December until February, is strongest during March, April and May. These months are particularly good for SouthWest swells which the island tracks far better than the more southerly swells which tend to be more dominant from June until November.
The Surf
San Cristobal island is located 960 Km west of Ecuador. The best surfing season is from December-April. This is the period when wind and swell conditions conspire to offer world class perfection. The waves average 3-6 ft, but can get up to 15 ft on the biggest swells. Long period ground swells arrive from a NW or SW direction and last between 3 and 4 days at a time. There is rideable surf everyday in the Galapagos at least chest-head high so getting skunked is a very remote possibility. For surfboards, recommended quiver would be a shortboard, a 6-6 to 6-9 rounded pin or mini gun, and one gun in the 7-foot range for the bigger days. Bring all equipment as there are no surf shops on the island.
North Swells
The Galapagos lies in an ideal geographical location to pick up the brunt of North Pacific ground swells which pound Hawaii and California but largely miss Mexico and Central America due to their south-facing orientation. As such, the Galapagos islands are on a short list of locations which really amplify and harvest the power of North Pacific ground swells and enjoy ideal weather and wind conditions at the same time. La Carola (hollow Sunset-like righthander), El Canon (peak lefthander similar to Popoyo), and Manglecito (hidden bay w/peaky A-frames) are at their best on NW swells.
South Swells
While the North swells have received a lot of attention, the South Swells are actually bigger and more consistent most of the year (especially from March onwards). Loberia (an A-frame reef break reminiscent of Pipe/Backdoor) is the go-to option for serious chargers, while Tongo Reef provides a more classic line (lefthander) with rides up to 300 yards. El Canon and Outer Reef will also pickup strong SW swells and provide some additional surfing venues.
Consistency, Size, Variety - Galapagos has it!
Because of the combination of northerly and southerly swells the Galapagos has a high degree of consistency over 70% during the season, although some of the breaks are deepwater volcanic rock reef waves which take a moderate to strong swell to go off. If it is breaking it is rarely under 4-5 feet. When major swells hit it can sometimes be huge at spots such as La Carola and Loberia hitting a legitimate 8-10 ft Hawaiian scale though 4-7 ft is more common, and fortunately there are some softer options like El Canon, Tongo Reef and Manglecito to find shelter.
Accommodations : Hotel Blue Marlin

(Associated Press: 0906 PST, April 11, 2011) Veiled women were among a group protesting against the French ban on face covering in public that took effect Monday. Police said at least two were detained, but complained the new law would be tough to enforce.
Face Veil Protesters Detained as French Ban Begins
(Euronews: 0718 PST, April 11, 2011) France's ban on full face veils, a first in Europe, has been marked by anger and arrests at one of the leading landmarks in Paris. Several people were detained at what was meant to be a silent protest outside Notre Dame Cathedral, with feelings running high. "It is an attack on my freedom of conscience, my freedom of religion, my freedom to be a woman," said activist Kenza Drider, wearing a face veil.

The holidays are finally upon us, and in celebration we're posting five fun facts about our favorite festive flicks.Today's featured film is the 1994 Christmas classic, "The Santa Clause."1. Disney has a policy that doesn't allow them to hire ex-cons. They made an exception when theyhired Tim Allen to play Santa Clause because he had a criminal background (for drug trafficking in 1978).2. In the 1995 VHS version of the film, Tim Allen made a sarcastic remark, "1-800-SPANK-ME," to hisex-wife. The scene was taken out of the later movie releases because a mom complained it wasa real sex hotline number. Her child had called it and racked up a $400 phone bill!3. In the film, Tim Allen (Scott) and Eric Lloyd (Charlie) drive down the road in a sleigh and ask a truck driver for directions. The truck driver, Jimmy Labriola, also plays Benny on Tim Allen's show "HomeImprovement."4. When Scott and Charlie leave the North Pole, the moon in the background is in the shape ofMickey Mouse.5. Chevy Chase was originally supposed to play the role of Santa Claus, but had to turn it downbecause of scheduling conflicts with another movie.Edward ScissorhandsNational Lampoon's Christmas VacationHome AloneLove ActuallyDie HardBridget Jones's DiaryThe Santa ClauseGremlins

Home | Glossary | Comments | Media | About Our Team |
This is our own contribution to the ThinkQuest World Wide Web Scholarship contest. Our team came together from the far reaches of our High School to join together in search of a common goal. We had a vision, and to achieve that vision was our only true object in life. Okay, we really just thought this would be something fun to do, and we'd all learn something as well. This site originated from several lunchtimes at McDonald's spent furiously scribbling on napkins as we tried to figure out what we were going to put into our web page. Eventually we straightened everything out, got organized and started working on what would turn out to be a very demanding project.
The original idea evolved out of our fascination with computers, and our enjoyment of movies. The first concept was to create a page on special effects in general, but it was decided that such a site would be much too large for the time period we had to work in. So the concept was abbreviated to only involve the special effects generated by computer, and then expanded to include television so that we could include the work done in that area also.
Most of the HTML coding was done in a Telnet UNIX shell or a regular word processor, then FTP'd out to our own local server space. Geoff designed the graphics using Adobe Photoshop 3.03 for Mactintosh. Our own photos were captured with a digital camera. The CGI script was downloaded from a local server, with permissions, and then modified by Dan to suit our own nefarious needs.
We'd like to thank all the people that helped us make this site a reality. Since many of the companies that we asked for copyright permissions didn't respond, we were forced to look to other areas for our inline images. We tried linking our images to sites already on the web, and were fortunate enough to find one individual, Todd Vaziri, who was very glad to help us out. Many of the images on our site come from the Visual Effects Headquarters, which Todd runs. Mike Alderson gave us some helpful suggestions, and our families put up with us sitting in front of flickering computer screens into the late hours of the night. And last but not least, there's our coach, Renee DeBuigne, who teaches pre-calculus and computer science at Richland High School.
Daniel Scott - our fearless team leader, Dan loves candlelight dinners and long walks on the beach...oh wait. Sorry. I forgot which "about Dan" I was writing. Dan is responsible for the testing and leading and technical expertise and stuff. He also did much of the writing, as well as remedial HTML and the nifty CGI script in the comments page. Dan worked at Battelle's Pacific Northwest National Laboratories until May of this year doing grunt computer work for the Atmospheric Sciences group. He is going to Washington State University this fall and plans to major in Computer Science. |
Chana Hickey - the member of the group who doesn't get enough credit for everything she does. She provided all the sugar needed for the long hours needed to produce this site. |
Geoffrey Elliott - Geoffrey is the person behind most of what you see here. He was in charge of most of the actual HTML coding, and created the buttons, bars and backgrounds in Photoshop. A graduate of Richland High School, Geoffrey works at Battelle, Pacific Northwest National Laboratory and works on web pages for the new Environmental Molecular Sciences Laboratory, currently under construction in Richland. He enjoys fooling around on computers, and plans to attend the University of Washington this fall, to study medicine or computer science. |

The "Yellow Jackets" who provide private security for the new downtown Kansas City Central Library are keeping the new quarters relatively safe and quiet for everyone's enjoyment. Yet some of the poor and homeless regulars of the old library are afraid to come into the imposing new lobby of the new library, a renovated old bank, when they peer through the front door.
For one thing, during the closure of the decrepit old library for moving the collection to the new library, they heard that they were unwelcome in the new place and were being identified with the few criminals around. They see that the immense lobby has no tables and chairs, which confirms to them that the new library is an unfriendly place. Of course that is not true : There are chairs and tables elsewhere and people inside are as friendly as Midwesterners can be. Indeed, some of the poor folk have been personally invited in by the Yellow Jackets who know them. I will suggest to the library's deputy director that library tours be organized for homeless people to acquaint them with the new facility.
One regular I know has shown up and is around quite often. She likes to get in a quiet place and read, usually non-fiction. I met her at the old library where I noticed that she and another poor writer were typing up a storm on the old typewriters there. Her high-speed typing amazed me, so I struck up a conversation with her and said I sure wished I had known her in the old days when I wrote manuscripts out longhand and paid a typist by the hour to type them up—one typist in Washington edited them as she went along, wherefore my writing improved considerably with no effort on my part.
Anyway, I saw her in the new library today, reading quietly back in the stacks, so I said hello and exchanged observations about the new library. I noted there were no typewriters for her to write with, and said it would be nice if there were a couple of typewriters in the little study rooms. She said she was writing scripts out by hand now, and that she likes the new library well enough on the balance. It has no typewriters, she remarked, but it is quiet like a library is supposed to be.
I told her my favorite tale about Nelson Algren, author of Walk on the Wild Side and other books once quite popular for their realism. He was a sort of American existentialist when the term was first being coined. Simone Beauvoir liked him a lot and even took leave of Jean Paul Sartre, her most significant other, to come over to the States and hang out with him. Algren drifted around quite a bit during the Depression, hanging out a lot with the poor and homeless, and got a job selling phony beauty-parlor discount certificates down in New Orleans. He wrote for awhile under the auspices of the WPA's Federal Writers Project along with Saul Bellow and other impoverished writers.
Anyway, I told my fast-typing acquaintance how Nelson hitched a ride to El Paso, where he was jailed for vagrancy for awhile. Then he went to Alpine, where he discovered he could use the typewriters of a teacher's college without being noticed. When he decided to go back to Chicago, he grabbed a typewriter, shipped it to Chicago, and hopped on a freight train. But he was busted for theft before he got out of Texas and was tossed in jail, where he stewed for a few months while waiting for the circuit judge to come around.
I don't the details of the case, whether Nelson got to keep the typewriter and had to make restitution, but I know that the judge set him loose and he high-tailed it back to Chicago. The experience provided him grist for his mill, not only for Walk on the Wild Side, but for Somebody in Boots.
She thought that was a pretty funny writer's story. I do too: That's why I remembered it all these years. Maybe library staff will retrieve one of those old electric typewriters for her to use if they were not all auctioned off at the old library along with the furniture and shelves.
As for me, my number one writer, I write on computers. The new library has free WIFI, I think it's called, for rich people who can afford laptops. There is some kind of "hot spot" area where you can get onto the Internet with your laptop. Otherwise, poor writers have to use the library computers and are limited to 90 minutes a day—it will take me about fifteen minutes to write this, but it is not so hot, and needs editing.
I sure wish I had taken that laptop a friend of mine wanted to get for me. I refused it, though, because she is not rich—I don't mind accepting expensive gifts from rich people. I don't know what is wrong with me, but I just cannot steal, even when I know I can get away with it. I am responsible, for instance, for returning almost a half-million dollar of overpayment from the government, and I returned even more to private companies over the years.
But forget about me, for I have a cheap little downtown studio to live in for the time being, and it has a great view of the city including the homeless guys who sleep on the roof of the building next door in freezing weather because they can't stand the shelters. This is about poor and homeless library regulars, including writers who write books at the Kansas City Public Library. I'm sure they will come back and feel welcome and secure now that the drug dealers, sexual predators, and demented nuisances that habituated the old library are not around, thanks to the Yellow Jackets.

He's been called the nation's best political debate coach he -- George W.
Bush in 2004.
John McCain in 2008.
And Michelle Bachmann and then Mitt Romney in this primary campaign.
So we've asked Brad -- Donald to join us today to talk about this week's debate and how both candidates need to re calibrate for the next one.
-- the big question I think it's fair to -- coming out of this debate is what happened.
To President Obama why did he do so -- -- now obviously you weren't in the room but that's gas what do you think his debate teams failed to do.
To preparing for Wednesday night.
Well I think you know there are three areas Chris where you have to prepare candidate the first is they have to know the issues they have to know policy.
On both sides I think got President Obama is fine in that area but that the last two areas I think.
His team may have -- the second is you have to have a strategy going into the debate to execute.
And the second in the final thing is you have to be mentally prepared I don't think the president was really mentally prepared.
To take on governor Romney and I certainly think.
That he was in shock when governor Romney went on offense and stayed on offense throughout the debate.
Have put the president on his heels and you know the president's worst moments are when he is on defense and that's where he spent most of the night of the night.
All right -- we asked Jude to -- some moments.
Where you thought the candidates did something particularly good or particularly bad and we're gonna start.
-- your good moment for Romney irritants.
My plan has five basic parts one get us energy independent North American energy independent that create about four million jobs.
And that he went on to list the other of this five point -- it what's your point get out your basic program right at the start.
You know from the very beginning governor Romney cast of vision for the debate.
You know folks had accused him of not being specific the president been on him about specifics.
And from the very beginning governor Romney operative vision of two different -- the path the president has -- on the path and he would put us on.
And he talked about it specifically gave us five things that his plan would do in in a debate.
That's a good amount of detail for the audience to catch on to so.
He really set in motion a frame for the debate which allowed him to to really cast vision in the debate which the president did not do.
All right but for all your criticism you say the president did have some good moments to here's your -- for that.
Raging monsters -- been running on this tax plan and now five weeks before the election.
Is saying that as big bold idea is never mind.
But -- strong about that.
Well you know it it takes.
The big issue of taxes that they had gone back and forth about for several minutes -- first opening block.
And it capitalized.
The president's entire argument in one sentence and that creates a moment that the press can catch on to it sound -- that.
The press can replay and that the audience can grab -- to and so it it was really the president's best line of the night.
-- on that he was he was very much on defense the entire night.
Now -- -- you say that that both candidates both candidates also stumbled during the debate and this one.
I have to say I didn't need your help on this is a mistake that Obama made repeatedly during the debate let's watch.
You put ninety million dollars.
Into the in the green jobs.
And I look I'm all shaver green energy ninety billion.
That would have that would have hired two million teachers.
And we saw that throughout the debate -- -- Obama keep.
-- kept looking down while the old Romney was making points are criticizing him or attacked him.
Brad I've got to think that's debate one -- one that he would tell your candidate always assume you're on camera and that the another look at a Jew even if the other guy -- -- You know it's it's funny though Chris that the debate history presidential debate history is replete with examples.
Of where candidates don't pay attention to how they looked and how they say things and are only worried about what they say.
But audiences tell us that they take as much as 65% of their meaning from how candidates -- how people say things.
You know so you have the famous George Bush looking out -- watch or.
Al Gore sighing in the debate and this time around we have the president who seems to be disinterested.
Who seems to be irritated and not focused on the debate.
What do you tell a candidate to do when the other guy is speaking or even -- -- Well you don't eat eat first certainly you can take notes you can look out at the audience but every now and then you need to look at your opponent it's.
It's kind of odd if you.
If a person's talking directly to you like governor Romney was during most of the debate.
And you don't look at them -- it's it's almost it's that you can -- could be considered rude or disinterested irritated.
It certainly sent the wrong message and at times you notice the president's even looking to his left when his podium is -- to the right and so.
It it sends the message I'd like to get out of here is -- Possible well but he's certainly sent that message but you say that Romney throw all of those good point stumbled -- during the debate and you say one case was when he was talking about.
Social security and Medicare entitlements let's take a look.
You're sixty -- around sixty or older you don't you -- any further but for younger people we need to talk about what changes are going to be occurring.
Not gonna say I was surprised by the so what did he do wrong there.
Well I I don't necessarily think you know it's degrees of weakness and I think governor Romney had a very strong night.
But in in this section on entitlements he didn't necessarily look the best and it seemed to be the moment where he wasn't as sure of himself on the arguments.
As he was throughout the rest of the debate I mean he was very strong on tax policy was very strong.
On his economic policy and use that ninety billion dollar figure.
To great advantage twice he used it against the president on energy policy.
And use it against him on education policy but during the section on entitlements he he he didn't necessarily seem.
To be at his strongest but still certainly much stronger the president.
Now I want to ask you about a moment you didn't bring -- that has gotten a lot of attention let's take a look at this.
I'm sorry Jim I'm gonna stop the subsidy to PBS I'm gonna -- -- the things I like PBS a lot of big bird actually like you to.
But I'm not gonna I'm not gonna keep on spending money on things to borrow money from China to pay for.
Now was not Smart as a way to show that he's serious about cutting spending or isn't always a mistake.
To take on big bird.
Well you know big -- pretty popular but you know I've maybe the president would save big bird didn't build his own nest I don't know but.
You know I think that it's you know it's it probably you know maybe not going after big -- certainly -- yes.
And public broadcasting is is popular in terms of not taking them on in the spending you know on the spending side so.
I don't think he was going down the wrong path may be you know maybe not so much -- big bird.
-- we got a couple of minutes left a lot of looks forward what do you expect from this week's vice presidential debate between Joseph Biden and -- -- Well I am shirt that Vice President Biden got a phone call from the White House and said.
You know look we you know we didn't go after.
Governor Romney is much and so you have got to turn up the heat.
Because you know debates are about controlling the ground whoever is viewed as the one who controls the debate who is.
Who is on the offense and I don't necessarily just me attacking your opponent governor Romney didn't attack the president the entire night.
Governor Romney stayed on his message and whoever stays on message is going to be viewed as the Victor -- so I'm sure that.
Vice President Biden spend.
You know coached to get back on message -- to to go after.
Paul Ryan now how much he can do that we'll see.
And you know I'm sure that congressman Ryan's been preparing.
On the policy side preparing mentally for this this is the first time.
He will look down on this stage and so you know I I think both men will be very prepared.
And briefly and looking ahead to the next presidential debate on October 16 nine days from now -- got to know that Obama is going to be much more aggressive to show that that was you know just about night.
If you're his coach what are yet and briefly what do you tell Obama to do and if you are Romney -- coach how do you -- to prepare.
For a much more aggressive president.
You're the president you've you've got to get on offense you you you have to use the things that have been successful to this point for them in the campaign book.
It was shocking that he didn't go into the 47% remark -- being capital are some of the other things that he's been using.
Which seem to have given him a perceptive advantage coming into the debate.
He's got to get on offense more poorly he's got opera vision I mean the president had no vision for the future.
In terms of what he would do where he would take the country.
And governor Romney's vision was -- really clear if you're governor Romney you have to stay on message and keep pressing.
On offense mean.
That worked for him in the debate but he's got to be ready for a different President Obama the risk is like Al Gore back in 2000.
If the president changes his persona too much folks -- report well a different president showed up.
And that hurt Al Gore in the 2000 debate so the president really has.
A problem on his hands in terms of how he approaches us next debate.
-- we're -- happily that there thank you so much for coming in and sharing some of the -- of your trade and we'll see you Thursday.
If Biden and Ryan were listening.
But thanks good to be with you.

Patients with type 1 diabetes have been known to be more prone to another autoimmune disorder, celiac disease, in which gluten in wheat, rye and barley triggers an immune response that damages the small intestine or gut. Now there's evidence that the two diseases have a genetic link: they share at least seven chromosome regions.
The discovery, published in this week's New England Journal of Medicine, indicates that both diseases may be triggered by similar genetic and environmental mechanisms, such as certain foods, that cause patients' immune systems to become overactive and destroy healthy instead of infected tissue. Previous research has found that celiac disease is five to 10 times more common in people with type 1 diabetes than in the general population, an editorial accompanying the study notes.
"These findings suggest common mechanisms causing both celiac and type 1 diabetes – we did not expect to see this very high degree of shared genetic risk factors," said study co-author David van Heel, a gastrointestinal geneticist at Barts and the London School of Medicine and Dentistry.
Van Heel and his colleagues studied genetic material or DNA from about 20,000 people, half of them healthy, nearly half with type 1 diabetes, and 2,000 with celiac disease. The overlapping genetic variants occurred on regions of chromosomes (parts of cells that carry genetic code) that are believed to regulate the gut's immune system, the BBC notes.
Type 1 diabetes occurs when a person's immune system mistakenly attacks healthy beta cells in the pancreas that produce the hormone insulin, which is needed to convert glucose into energy. In celiac disease, a similar attack occurs on the small intestine when sufferers eat gluten-rich grains, causing inflammation in the gut that can lead to bloating, abdominal pain, nausea, constipation, diarrhea, fatigue, anemia, headaches, weight loss and failure to thrive in children. Whereas diabetes 1 patients must inject insulin daily to make up for their deficiency, people with celiac disease can avoid damage and symptoms by sticking to a gluten-free diet.
"The finding raises the question of whether eating cereal and other gluten products might trigger type 1 diabetes by altering the function of the gut and its interaction with the pancreas, the authors write. But Robert Goldstein, chief scientific officer of the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation, which helped fund the study, says it would be premature to assume from this study that gluten is also a diabetes trigger.
"I fear the newspaper headlines in the popular press will read like, 'Eating wheat will cause type 1 diabetes,'" Goldstein tells us. "The presence or absence of these associations has to be linked to some biological consequence" for a person's health.

My 21 year old grand daughter was diagnosed with celiac this past year.
I would like for someone else that has it to post some comments about this diseise.
It is great to see more research on Celiac Disease as well as the other autoimmune dieases that may be related. CD is grossly underdiagnosed in the United States. Research shows that 1 in 133 Americans have CD and rates are much higher in other areas of the world.
Newly diagnosed persons with CD should be in touch with local support/education groups for information and assistance.
The Gluten Intolerance Group www.gluten.net and www.celiac.com have information on all aspects of the disease.
I have celiac disease and suffer from pre-diabetes.
I have celiac disease and suffer from pre-diabetes.
I am 56 yr male. had CD for past 31 years, Type 1 diabetes for 2 years and just diagnosed with psorisis a month ago.
What news is there about stem cell research for these ailments?
There are two more in my family with CD, Diabetes and Lactose intolerance.
I can come at any age and is undiagnosed very often.
My 13 year old son has had diabetes since 4 years. he has had CD for a year and a half. He has always had a very competitive nature and plays very high level sports (AAA travel hockey), but has recently shown a loss of weight and body tone. I link this to us being challenged in finding him the foods to fuel his activity, and his lack of desire to eat some of the foods that are available. He is weaker and has less energy. Can someone provide some info on what can be done to improve this or someone who has had similar challenges? I was thinking that there may be some kind of suppliment that he could take that is healthy but will provide him with some help with weight gain and energy.
Reply | Report Abuse | Link to thisYour son has had CD all of his life; it is now just showing more noticeable symptoms. CD is a serious disease that causes damage to the small intestine, so a diagnosis should not be taken lightly. This is common at the onset of puberty because the body has to turn its attention to the task of sexual and physical development, so the CD tends to gain some ground. The weight loss could be caused by excessive activity, changing body chemistry, or further damage to the small intestine resulting in a greater increase in malnutrition. You really need to work with someone who can help you with dietary suggestions. Try www.celiac.com or www.celiac.org for additional information. In my own case, I have had CD all of my life, but wasn't diagnosed until until my early 40's. I have been overly thin my whole life, and had period of time of stress when I would have unintentional weight loss, depression, etc. The disease has deprived me of the "normal" life that others enjoy in their 20's-30's -- so the sooner you get on top of the disease, the better.

I keep reading conflicting things, Essentially I am in the gym 4 days a week my routine is a blend of power and hypertrophy, for major compounds deads, squats, bench, push presses I do 5 sets of 3.. then whatever additional work I have for the day after that.
Ok, now I usually follow this with 15-40 minutes of cardio immediately after my workouts, I do HIIT sprints.
I was getting great, great fat loss gains.. but now I've plataeud and it looks like i'm even gaining some BF back, I'm around 8.5-9 percent.
My diet is a low carb one with one entire cheat day a week, I try to stay below 150gs carbs a day, with the bulk of them being consumed pre and post workouts.
However I've read to NOT eat carbs pre-workout only post, but i've also read the reverse, I've also read not to eat carbs after an intense cardio session, but also too.
when it gets warmer out, I plan to do fasted morning cardio via heavy bag, and i KNOW i plan to have carbs with my second meal of the day instead of first.
Any suggestions?

Home · BBA Home · BBA International Programs · International Exchange Students · Getting Involved
The Buddy Program matches up international exchange students to UT students who have either recently returned from studying abroad or will be studying abroad the following semester at our partner schools. This is a great way to meet new friends, practice English or a foreign language, share advice on life in the U.S. and overseas, and network with students equally interested in international travel.
To encourage greater interaction and networking among UT and international students, students participating in the Buddy Program will be assigned a "family group" comprising at least 2 UT students and international students. We encourage family groups to get together at least twice a month throughout the semester.
To become a buddy, interested students will sign up on a web form by the deadline; the link and other information will be e-mailed to you.
A meet and greet reception will be coordinated by the BBA International Program office each semester. We encourage all students participating in the Buddy Program to attend in addition to meeting with their family groups several times throughout the semester.
To expose the international exchange students to true Austin food and culture, we've compiled a list of fun things to do in and around Austin each month.
The Global Ambassador Program invites returning study abroad students and current international exchange students to help promote study abroad by speaking to prospective study abroad students about what it is like to live and study overseas. By sharing your personal experiences of living in or being from another country, we hope that many more students will go on exchange and immerse themselves in new and fascinating cultures around the world!
Based on the student's availability, Global Ambassadors are asked to participate in at least 2 to 3 promotional events during the semester. Events may include speaking at study abroad information sessions, student organization presentations, Freshmen Interest Group (FIG) classes, freshmen recruiting events, K-4th grade outreach programs, or Family Weekend.
Interested students should email firstname.lastname@example.com to join the program.
Business Students Abroad (BSA) is an student organization designed to help international exchange students find their home away from home in Austin, TX! BSA is a great way for international students to meet one another and UT Business students. It is also ideal for McCombs students hoping to meet students from the country they are planning to study abroad in or have already studied abroad in, as well as for McCombs students looking to meet diverse people from all over the world.BSA strives to help the international students feel comfortable and get the full UT and Austin experience. BSA holds multiple events every semester that allow local UT Austin and international students to socialize and have a lot of fun! Some past events include floating the river, trips to San Antonio and Barton Springs Pool, boat parties, attending UT sporting events, and visiting other Austin-area destinations.
To learn more or to join, visit the UT BSA Facebook group.
Joining a student organization is one of the best ways to meet UT students, make friends, and get more out of your semester in Austin! With over 900 registered students organizations, it is easy to find one that meets your interests and is right for you.
The Student Organization Database is the best way to research student organizations. Students can search by keyword, name, or by organization type. Categories include: International/Cultural, Social, Professional, Recreational, Special Interests, Sports, Religious, Service, Political.
During the first weeks of the semester, students are encouraged to stop by the West Mall (west of the Tower building) or the Jester Building foyer (corner of 21st street and Speedway) to visit a variety of student org tables distributing membership and event information.
There are also over 30 student organizations registered at the McCombs School of Business. This is a great way to meet fellow business students while joining a professional, service, social or major-related student organization. Learn more.
Find helpful information regarding career exploration, interview preparation, internship and job boards, company research, and career services programs such as networking receptions, etiquette dinners, and Career Prep Week.
Whether it is starting or joining a student organization, participating in a case competition, or attending a McCombs school-wide event such as Gone to Business or Explore UT, the Office of Student Life is dedicated to offering students numerous out of classroom experiences that complement their academic studies.
McCombs students with a valid UT ID are eligible to checkout a variety of media equipment, including use of laptops, projectors, digital cameras, and camcorders.

APUP has the ability to make a log-file. The log-file contains a record of all detection errors and all download errors. If you see the on-screen error message "One or more files failed verification..." the log-file will have all the details of all the errors.
If you see the on-screen error message "One or more files failed verification...", please do not post that error message on the forums without any further details. Instead, you must run APUP again and make a log-file. See the next two sections: How to make a log-file and How to post a log-file.
How to make a log-file
APUP makes a log-file if it is run with the option (switch, a.k.a command-line argument) " /log". There are three methods you can use to do this:
(1) Use the Command Prompt
If you know how to use the Command Prompt, add the /log option, as shown in the following example:
C:\my_apup_folder>apup /log
(2) Create a custom shortcut
Perform the following step-by-step instructions to create a custom shortcut:
- In Windows Explorer (the proper name for My Computer) locate "apup.exe" in the apup folder.
- Right-Click on apup.exe and on the menu that appears, click on "Create Shortcut". A new file called "Shortcut to apup.exe" will appear in the apup folder.
- In the apup folder Right-Click on "Shortcut to apup.exe" and on the menu that appears, click on "Properties". A "Shortcut to apup.exe Properties" window will appear and "Target" will be selected (highlighted).
- Press the right cursor key to go to the end of the Target box. Add " /log" at the end (including the space, but not including the " " characters). The "Target" box will now show -> C:\...\apup\apup.exe /log or "C:\...\apup\apup.exe" /log
- Click OK. The modified "Shortcut to apup.exe" will be saved in your apup folder.
(3) Use the .cmd file provided
Re-download APUP and a file called "hit_this_to_generate_a_log_file_for_apup" will appear in the same folder as APUP. Double-click this to run APUP and make a log-file.
How to post a log-file
APUP creates the file apup.log in the same folder as APUP. This is a text file which can be opened in Notepad or any other program, such as a Programmer's Editor, that reads text files.
Please never post a log-file if this is the first time you have run APUP in a folder, or you have deleted anything and are starting again. The log-file will be very long and tell us nothing useful. All we will know from this log-file is that you ran APUP for the first time.
If you receive the error message "One or more files failed verification" or you have been asked by a Developer or forum Staff member to post a log-file, please always run APUP twice.
Do not add or delete any files.
Make sure that APUP is run:
- with the same releases selected as before,
- in the same folder as before, and
- with no other changes.
Post the log-file from the second run only. Please read the Log File Reference for more information.

The Romney -- ticket is hitting hard against president Obama's record over the last four years both are facing some heat.
On their vision for Medicare reforms and claims that the elderly will take a big hit.
-- -- Romney administration but the GOP ticket is firing back saying that obamacare will be cutting over 700 billion out of Medicare and that the White House is using smear tactics to scare seniors.
With the GOP convention set to debut short leave the question are the attacks against the Romney Ryan keep working and are -- -- buying it.
Joining us now with some thoughts and all this former New Hampshire governor and Romney backer Johnson you.
Who is in -- -- -- for the big convention governor welcome I know that.
Florida is bracing for the storm I know you are standing by there to see how does all of -- But as we keep that as the backed up this campaign of course being called one of the dirty it's in recent memory.
What impact do you think the attack ads like the -- suggesting the GOP wants it's our -- off the -- are having on seniors right now.
Well I think it's all backfiring on the Democrats there that Democrats are really panic -- right now.
Because the seniors understand that Obama -- 716.
Billion from Medicare.
And they finally understanding that would Medicaid Medicare destined to go bankrupt.
In twelve years it's been absolutely irresponsible.
For President Obama to be running around the fund -- and playing golf instead of meeting.
-- and preparing a plan on how to save Medicare.
Governor Romney and Paul Ryan have been talking about their plan to save Medicare and President Obama as usual.
Is hiding under the desk.
Let me ask you about your personal feelings about the way -- attack ads have been going.
What are your thoughts on the way -- the visiting conducted at this point.
Well you know the Obama campaign clearly decided and laid out their agenda last August.
And a couple of articles talking about how -- strategy was killed Romney and I think they're getting burned with them.
They've spent well over a 150.
Billion -- million dollars on advertising.
And it's just raised the president's negatives.
And when you do that I don't have any effect.
They are really panic -- they're trying to lay it on things are now.
But that governor Romney and Paul Ryan -- gonna lay out an agenda of positive programs.
To fix the economy protect Medicare.
I had to get this country moving again we have young people who can't find jobs when they graduate that's a travesty.
Let me ask you the fact of the GOP convention will give Americans who are still undecided a chance to get to -- Mitt Romney a bit better.
What -- you -- -- -- -- did -- connect with voters to seal the deal.
Well I think he's got to start talking about his positive program this is a gentlemen who not only has great private sector experience.
But it really was a great governor in Massachusetts.
He took over a play a budget that was a -- -- deficit.
Turned it around without raising taxes and showed that he could work.
With a democratic legislature and people have to understand this is a man who fixes problems and he makes things work.
And he creates jobs and I think that's the most important thing that has to -- In the days ahead.
You know although the polls are showing that the presidential contest is a virtual dead heat at this point the president still comes out on top when it comes to the issue of like ability.
So hit -- the economy stupid -- like ability that the top issue in this election year why do you think.
Mitt Romney is having a tougher time on this issue of like ability -- itself.
Well you know -- is is a disciplined individual that goes about things in -- quite disciplined way.
And that may not resonate the resonate as as.
A big number on the like ability factor but it certainly resonates in terms of confidence and capability.
And I think when people look at what's happened to this country in the last four years and the disaster we have.
They're gonna go with confidence and a capacity to solve problems the president may be like all the way.
Out of office this time around.
So are we as journalists making too much of this issue about like ability.
I'm sorry say that again as we as -- are we as journalists here on the side of the fence making too much over this issue of liability.
I like -- season.
Electability electability yes yeah I think I think you are I think I there's a lot of people -- like I would in the hunt run hired to run a lemonade stand.
And -- certainly.
President Obama falls in that category you may like him but you'd never ask him to do something important.
In Romney's Ohio -- today he gave a shout out to women entrepreneurs saying if he wins he will make a special effort to help women with.
Dreams of launching their own businesses it was a departure from his normal stump speeches -- an effort.
Two of reach out to female voters with poll showing that he's still trails and getting their support.
Well that's always -- there's no question that that gender gap is something that Republicans always are.
Sensitive to address -- if anybody knows.
How to create a climate for for the entrepreneur in general and for women entrepreneurs and specifically.
It's Mitt Romney and I think they've.
Women of America who have ambition.
Who are obviously the heart and soul of this country ought to take the governor up and vote for -- The governors and it is always a pleasure to have you on our show thank you so much for joining us I know.
-- keeping close watch on all the developments there and on the impending storm that -- -- away.
Thank you it's sunny and bright here in Tampa today and we're gonna keep.
Hoping that -- moves as far west as he can indeed all right governor thank you very much.

Detection of IP3 with AlphaScreen is based on the competition between IP3 produced by cells and a biotinylated IP3 analog (b-IP3) binding to a GST-tagged IP3 binding protein (GST-IP3 -bp). The b-IP3 and GST-IP3 bp are recognized by the streptavidin-Donor and anti-GST conjugated Acceptor beads, respectively. The beads are brought into proximity and a signal is detected. Increased intracellular concentrations of IP3 following GPCR activation by an agonist results in the displacement of the b-IP3 and leads to a proportional signal decrease.
