|Boldin carted off field after helmet-to-helmet hit
|Written by Admin

Boldin, who had 10 catches and a touchdown Sunday, was first hit in the back then took a shot to his helmet from Eric Smith trying to catch a pass from Kurt Warner with 27 seconds remaining in the Cardinals' 56-35 loss to the Jets.
Both Boldin and Smith fell to the turf, and Cardinals receiver Larry Fitzgerald immediately waved to the sideline for help.
Coach Ken Whisenhunt said Boldin was alert and was moving his extremities. He was taken to Mount Sinai Hospital in New York for what Whisenhunt said were precautionary reasons.
After being working on for several minutes, Boldin was immobilized and placed on a stretcher before he was carted off the field. Smith was able to get up after a few moments.
Boldin was talking to his teammates coming off the field and going into the locker room.
``He asked to get up and the doctors won't let him,'' Whisenhunt said.
Russell was immobilized and taken off the field on a stretcher after spraining his neck in the fourth quarter of a 33-19 loss to the Chiefs.
Russell was hurt on Kansas City's return of the kickoff following a Broncos touchdown.
He lifted his left hand and waved as he was taken off the field.
The team said Sunday night that Russell was taken to a hospital for examination and then accompanied the team on its charter flight back to Denver.
While Cincinnati quarterback Carson Palmer didn't play because of a sore elbow, Minnesota QB Gus Frerotte hurt his non-throwing hand late in the fourth quarter of the Vikings' 30-17 loss to Tennessee when he was hit as he threw from his end zone.
Frerotte had thrown for 266 yards and pulled the visiting Vikings to 23-17 after a 79-yard drive with 6 minutes left. But he threw two straight incompletions from his end zone after the Titans downed a punt at the Vikings 2. He was hit on third down, and cornerback Nick Harper picked off the pass.
That sent Frerotte to the locker room where he received a couple stitches in his left hand.
Tarvaris Jackson, who was benched in favor of Frerotte after an 0-2 start, took over and completed a pass before being sacked on the next two plays.
Cleveland, throwing three interceptions while going 21-of-35 for 156 yards and a late touchdown.
Green Bay also lost its quarterback. Aaron Rogers threw for two touchdowns to Greg Jennings, who had six receptions for 109 yards, but was sacked three times and left the Packers' 31-20 loss to Tampa Bay for one series with a shoulder injury midway through the fourth quarter.
The fourth-year pro returned briefly after Green Bay (2-2) fell behind 23-21 on Matt Bryant's third field goal of the game. But he was hit from the blindside as he launched a pass on second down, and the ball was picked off by Gaines Adams with just over 2 minutes to go.
The Packers said Rodgers will be examined Monday. The quarterback thinks he might have separated the shoulder when he was tackled after scrambling for a 7-yard gain in the third quarter.
Washington Redskins defensive end Jason Taylor's consecutive games streak ended at 133 when he was inactive for their game at Dallas. He had last missed a game in 1999.
Taylor, whose streak was the seventh-longest among active players, is recovering from surgery from a rare injury sustained when he was kicked in the shin in the Redskins' 24-17 victory over Arizona last week.
Carolina lost both its offensive tackles when Jordan Gross and Jeff Otah were injured in a 24-9 win over the visiting Atlanta Falcons.
n, and right tackle Otah injured his right ankle with 2:26 to play in the third period. Neither returned.
It wasn't clear how Gross was injured with 9:45 to play in the first. He was laying face down on the grass following a 1-yard run by DeAngelo Williams, and quarterback Jake Delhomme said he believed Gross was briefly unconscious.
After a delay of several minutes, a stretcher was sent onto the field for Gross, who waived it off. He instead left on the back of a cart, pumping his right fist to the crowd as he left.
The injuries left the Panthers with a depleted roster of offensive lineman because guard Mackenzy Bernadeau and tackle Frank Omiyale were both inactive.
At Jacksonville, Fla., Texans safety C.C. Brown broke his arm and will have surgery Monday. Houston coach Gary Kubiak wasn't sure how long he will be out.
The Jaguars, already playing without starting safety Reggie Nelson (knee) and starting linebacker Justin Durant (groin), lost cornerback Rashean Mathis (shin) in the second quarter. He should be OK. He was replaced by Will James, who was beaten on Matt Schaub's first TD pass.

As you know, Stone Brewing Co. provides homebrew recipes for their Vertical Epic Ales and Anniversary Ales.
As an extract brewer, I am still trying to get a handle on converting recipes from all grain to extract. Any help you could provide converting this to an 5 Gallon extract / steeping grains recipe would be much appreciated. I am particularly lost regarding the percentages.
Here is the ingredients list:
Pale 2-row malt:89.75%
Caramel 150L malt: 9%
Chocolate wheat: 1.25%
Amarillo hops at 8.2%aa at about .25 oz per gallon.
Clear Belgian candi sugar: 1.5 oz/gallon
#550 White Labs BelgianYeast
(you're aiming for 20 Plato for your wort)
The full recipe/instructions can be found here:http://www.stonebrew.com/epic/homebr...leaseYear=2005
This is such a tasty belgian brew, I really want to do this one right with my limited equipment.
I believe zymurgy just published this recipe in pounds and oz's, I think they give the extract altenatives as well. cheers good luck.
I just double checked on that. No, they did not include the 05.05.05 VE, just their Anniversary ales.
Well, just to see how close my calculations are:Vertical Epic Ale Clone (5 gallons)
8.5 lbs light DME
1.3 lbs crystal 150L
3 oz chocolate
1/2 lb clear Belgian candi sugar
1.25 oz Amarillo hops @ 60 min
1 tsp Irish moss
White Labs #550
Steep grains in 1 gallon of water at 150*F for 30 minutes; sparge with 1/2 gallon water at 170*F. Bring to boil and add DME, candi sugar and hops. Boil for 45 min and add Irish moss. After 60 minutes, cool to below 80*F and pitch yeast. Ferment in primary 5-7 days and rack to secondary. Bottle when gravity hasn't changed over 3-4 days (~ in 2 weeks from rack to secondary). Bottle with 3/4 cup corn sugar.
NOTE: I edited amounts based on discussion in post #6 below. Originally I had Caramel 1# and Chocolate 2 oz.
Thanks Marc,
How did you calculate those amounts? The percentages differ from that in the all-grain recipe...or is that to make up for the difference in fermentables?
Hmm, now that I look over the recipe I see I didn't take into account the Belgian candi sugar contribution to final gravity. So, I'll edit the recipe above to reflect this. Does this vibe more with their suggestion?
Well to start with, 20 Plato = 1.083 SG; *5 gallons = 415 gravity units (83*5).
Belgian Candi sugar 0.47 lbs (1.5 oz/gal x 5 gallons) x 46 (extract potential 1.046) = 21.6 GU. So 415 - 21.6 = 393.4
Then using the grain bill:
2-row 0.8975 x 393.4 = 353 gravity units contribution
Caramel 0.09 x 393.4 = 35.4 GU
Chocolate 0.0125 x 393.4 = 4.9 GU
Then using, GU / extract potential per lb / efficiency = lbs needed:
2-row 353 / 45 (EP for DME) / 1 (100% efficiency w/ DME) = 7.84 lbs DME
Caramel 35.4 / 33 / 0.75 (based on 75% efficient mash) = 1.43 lbs
Chocolate 4.9 / 29 / 0.75 = 0.23 lbs
The problem that I run into with conversions, is that steeping grains doesn't really contribute fermentables. So it was always my understanding that you keep the specialty grains the same as the all-grain recipe and then calculate the amount of DME needed that will contribute the entire fermentable sugar. In that case, the recipe would look like this (with the specialty grains kept in proportion to original recipe, based on 14.5 lb total grain bill):
393.4 GU / 46 (EP per lb) / 1 (efficiency of DME) = 8.55 lbs light DME
Caramel = 1.3 lbs (14.5 lbs x 9%)
Chocolate = 0.18 lbs ~ 3 oz (14.5 x 1.25%)
The bottom line is that it is extremely hard to get an all-grain recipe exactly like an extract with steeped grains recipe. Also, the ingredient percentages aren't going to match up once you trade DME for 2-row grain (it isn't a 1:1 trade).
If anyone has other comments and suggestions, please share. I'm by all means no expert on this. Sorry for the mix-up...
PS. BrewStef, what were their extract recipe ingredient amounts?

The Lord Of The Rings star Dominic Monaghan wore a python on his wrist when he appeared on the Jimmy Kimmel Live! show. Monaghan, 32, collects reptiles and keeps two whip scorpions named Indiana and Jones, a black widow spider named Wichita and a praying mantis named Happiness. Kimmel deadpanned: "I don't like your watch, I'm gonna tell you right now." Monaghan told his host: "She's super tame. You'd be in more danger from being hurt by a kitten ... Isn't she beautiful?" He also said: "I had a praying mantis called Happiness and a praying mantis called Smile and I put Happiness and Smile together, and, unfortunately, Happiness ate Smile." The actor based a character for his new sci-fi drama FlashForward on a praying mantis, necessitating close study. "I tend to base characters that I play on animals and the reason why I wanted to get a praying mantis is because [I based Simon] on a praying mantis. He's like, single-track mind, he's got an idea what he wants to do, he's a killer, he's kinda a bad guy – I do specifically make body movements based on my praying mantis."

Sir Ian looked clearly annoyed as he closed his eyes and paused before answering. As Goldberg began to look uncomfortable and confused by his response, Sir Ian said: "Well, if I were Mike Gambon, I might, but I don't play Harry Potter, I don't play Dumbledore – I play Lord Of The Rings, darling." As the audience gasped at her mistake, the Sister Act star sheepishly shook her head and repeatedly said, "I'm sorry" and "I know better". Sir Ian finally chuckled and reached over and patted her knee. "You're not the only one to make that mistake," he told her. "One wizard is much like another."

The Hoyas wore gold shoelaces for Pediatric Cancer Awareness Month and Lace-Up 4 Pediatric Cancer.
Sept. 16, 2012
WASHINGTON - Senior midfielder Andy Riemer (McLean, Va./Georgetown Prep) played the hero once again as the No. 12/18 Georgetown University men's soccer team defeated the University of Pennsylvania Quakers (0-6-0), 3-1, Sunday afternoon at North Kehoe Field. Riemer scored his first-career hat trick to improve the Blue & Gray to 7-0-1 on the season.
"These are hard weekends, you can see the legs getting tired because we've been playing Friday/Sunday, we've been traveling and we have guys playing 90 minutes, sometimes more," said Georgetown Head Coach Brian Wiese. "This was a great result for us because we got a lot of guys in who stepped up and played. For where we are, we're really happy. Now we just need to recharge our legs a little."
The Hoyas controlled the pace of the first half and had possession for much of the time, but couldn't find the back of the net until the 36th minute.
Junior defender Joey Dillon (Rochester Hills, Mich./Rochester Adams) played a perfect ball from the backfield and found junior forward Steve Neumann (New Hope, Pa./Council Rock North) who took one touch to cross it at the 18 to Riemer at the top of the six-yard box who fired for the first goal of the game.
Unfortunately, the lead didn't last long as Penn's Duke Lacroix shot from 30 yards out just three minutes later into the upper right corner for the equalizer.
The teams went into the break tied at one.
The Quakers began to look dangerous in the second half as the Hoyas played quick restarts to avoid allowing the Penn offense to counter.
In the 76th minute, the Blue & Gray scored the game winner thanks to another Riemer tally. Neumann played a ball from the 18 perfectly to sophomore midfielder Austin Martz (Mechanicsburg, Pa./Mechanicsburg) who took one touch to cross it into the box. Riemer came sliding in and managed to get a foot on it to direct it past the keeper to make it 2-1.
The senior midfielder would add his third of the game in the 85th minute as sophomore midfielder Tyler Rudy (Olney, Md./Sherwood) hit a long ball from the midfield to Riemer who got past the defense and finished to the top left corner of the net.
The 3-1 score would stand as the final as the Hoyas held on to continue its best start in program history.
Georgetown held a 21-13 advantage in shots including 11 on goal to Penn's four. The Hoyas also had 10 corner kicks to the Quakers' one, but didn't take advantage using the quick restart. Sophomore goalkeeper Tomas Gomez (Webster Groves, Mo./Webster Groves) took the win in the net with three saves, while Max Kurtzman was given the loss with eight saves on the afternoon.
The game was a homecoming for Penn Head Coach Rudy Fuller who is a Georgetown men's soccer alum.
It was the first time in the history of the BIG EAST/Ivy League Classic that the Hoyas have gone 2-0 after defeating Princeton on Friday evening in New Jersey.
The Blue & Gray will be back in action next weekend as the team begins BIG EAST Conference play with Rutgers. The game is scheduled to begin at 1 p.m., at North Kehoe Field. Live stats and a webcast featuring Dan Helfrich will be available at www.GUHoyas.com.

Beam me up, Yoda: Obama flubs 'Star Trek' term
Sci-fi fans reacted with a wave of traffic through the Twitterverse after the president, while speaking to reporters, mixed up terms from the "Star Wars" and "Star Trek" franchises.
The Washington Post
WASHINGTON — President Obama on Friday urged cooperation between Democrats and Republicans. But the only things mixing were his science-fiction metaphors.
During a news conference at the White House, Obama said some people unfairly expected him to force Republicans to accept his terms in order to head off the spending cuts.
"Even though most people agree ... I'm presenting a fair deal, the fact that they don't take it means that I should somehow do a Jedi mind-meld with these folks and convince them to do what's right."
That phrase combined elements from two distinct sci-fi worlds.
A "Jedi mind trick" is a power exercised by Jedi Knights in "Star Wars." ("These aren't the droids you're looking for.") "Mind meld" is from "Star Trek."
Unsurprisingly, the Twitter reaction to the gaffe came faster than a trip through hyperspace. Before Obama's remarks concluded, clever fans of the movies and shows had already created the Twitter hashtag #ObamaSciFiQuotes, in which users fused quotes from both franchises. Others, including #jedimindmeld, followed.
The White House joined in a few hours later with a sci-fi-themed Web page showing a "Star Wars" riff: "These cuts aren't the solutions Americans are looking for." And, "To deny the facts would be illogical."
The page directed users to wh.gov/jedimindmeld, a fact sheet on the sequester.

No. 863,959 Int. Cl. A61f 1/00 U.S. Cl. 3-1 11 Claims ABSTRACT 0F THE DTSCLUSURE A prosthetic device designed for implantation in broken bones. An inner rod member of high-strength metallic alloy having a high modulus of elasticity is disposed within an outer sleeve member of canbon having a low modulus of elasticity. The carbon sleeve is bonded or friction-fitted to the inner rod, or it may be prestressed between an enlarged head at one end of the rod and a nut. The composite unit has a modulus of elasticity closely approximating that of living bone which allows the unit to remain securely implanted and not be displaced through toggling.
The present invention relates generally to prosthetic devices and, more particularly, to synthetic structures which strengthen or replace sections of broken bones.
It is well known that use of prostheses for joints and the strengthening of fractured `bones during healing has become commonplace in modern medical practice. Many parts of the skeletal system, especially those which bear the main weight of the body, are subject to great stress. When broken, these bones are diicult to heal rapidly and correctly. Morevore, the damage and deterioration of weight-bearing and other joints, such as the hip joint due to disease and other trauma often cannot be pre- Vented and result in immobility for the patient. The adaptation of artificial devices to replace and strengthen damaged ibones has alleviated many of such problems.
The prosthetic devices available today, however, are subject to many limitations. Many of these devices are themselves vulnerable to deterioration from chemical and galvanic corrosion. Such corrosion results in reduced strength of the prosthetic device and probable toxic reaction of the host tissues to the corrosion products. The devices are therefore generally only temporary until they are removed or replaced. Also, use of foreign materials which are stronger but less exible than living bone causes an implanted bone pin or replacement device to have movement relative to the bone under prolonged conditions of stress. This movement can cause such a pin to work loose from the bone and lose its effectiveness as a strengthening device.
In order to overcome these disadvantages, it is an object of the present invention to provide a prosthetic device which closely approximates the rigidity of living boue.
It is another object of this invention to provide a device which is chemically inert within and completely compatible with a living body.
.It is a still further object to provide a combination of materials from which a number of different prosthetic devices for use in many areas of the :body may be produced. These and other objects of the invention are more particularly set forth in the following detailed description and in the accompanying drawings wherein:
FIG. l is a cross-sectional view illustrating a ybone pin embodying various features of the present invention;
FIG. 2 is an enlarged, cross-sectional view taken along line 2-2 of FIG. l;
FIG. 3.is a cross-sectional view of another bone pin embodying various features of the present invention;

FIG. 5 is an elevational view of another device embodying various features of the invention shown implanted n the femur with portions broken away and shown in cross-section;
FIG. 6 is a variation of the device illustrated in FIG. 3 shown in position in one type of bone fracture, with portions Ibroken away and shown in cross-section;
FIG. 7 is an illustration of a bone fracture wherein a pair of bone pins are used, with portions broken away and shown in cross-section; and
FIG. 8 is an illustration of a third type of bone fracture where a bone pin is employed, with portions broken away and shown in cross-section.
iIn FIG. l, a composite bone pin 10 is illustrated having an outer cylindrical sleeve 11 of a suitable hard carbonaceous material having a low modulus of elasticity. A longitudinal opening or central passageway 13 is formed, as by machining, within the sleeve 11 in order to accommodate a rod portion 14 of an inner member 15. An enlarged head 17 is formed at one end of rod 14. The head 17 abuts one end s-urface of Sleeve 11 and may be variously shaped to accommodate the particular application contemplated for the bone pin 10. The inner member 15 is made of a suitable, biocompatible metallic alloy having a high modulus of elasticity, preferably Vitallium.
The rod portion 14 is bonded or friction-fitted to the surface defining the longitudinal passageway through the sleeve 1'1. The combined sleeve and rod materials produce a composite bone pin 10 having a relatively low modulus of elasticity which closely approximates that of living bone. The modulus of elasticity, also known as Youngs modulus, is the common engineering measurement of stiffness or rigidity in elastic materials. 'It is the equivalent of the ratio of stress to corresponding strain for a given loading and is measured in the same units as stress, pounds per square inch (p.s.i.). By matching the modulus of elasticity of the bone pin 10 to that of living bone, the chance of relative movement occurring therebetween is substantially reduced.
The sleeve 11 may be 'made from a material having a modulus of elasticity about equal to, or preferably slightly less than that of living bone, which material is compatible with the body. Examples of suitable materials include carbon materials, e.g. polycrystalline graphite (such as that sold under the trade name Poco- Graphite), vitreous amorphous carbon, pyrolytic carbon, and a composite of carbonized cloth and thermosetting resin. Pyrolytic carbon may be obtained by the high temperature decomposition of gaseous hydrocarbons to deposit carbon of suitable physical characteristics onto a cylindrical mandrel of material which is stable at high deposition temperatures. After deposition of the carbon, the 'mandrel may be machined away leaving only the pyrolytic carbon sleeve, if desired. A sleeve of cloth and carbonized thermosetting resin may be obtained by impregnating a suitable cloth, e.g. rayon or carbon, with an organic thermosetting resin and molding the impregnated cloth to the desired shape. Subjection to a high-temperature, oxygen-free atmosphere causes pyrolysis or carbonization which leaves a carbonized composite residue. Experimental evidence indicates that high-purity carbon, including polycrystalline graphite, is chemically, biologically and physically compatible with the fluids and tissues in the human body over extended periods of time. Usually carbonaceous materials are selected which have a modulus of elasticity, between l` l06 and 4 106 p.s.i. and a porous outer surface approaching that of living bone.
The longitudinal passageway 13 in the sleeve 11 accdmmodates the inner metallic rod portion 14 in a location coaxially within the sleeve. In the illustrated embodiment, the longitudinal passageway 13 extends completely through sleeve 11. However, the passageway 13 may be drilled to terminate slightly short of one end of the sleeve 11 so that one end of the pin would be completely carbonaceous. The rear surface of the head 17 is flat and perpendicular to the rod 14 to abut the end surface of sleeve 1=1. The front surface of the head 17 may be machined into various shapes, and the conical shape of head 17, illustrated in FIG. l, facilitates insertion of the bone pin 11, for example, within a hole drilled in the marrow of a fractured bone.
'I'he carbon sleeve 11 may be bonded to an inner rod 14 of Vitallium using any adhesives suitable for bonding carbon to metal. Depending upon the material from which the sleeve 11 is made, it may also be bonded to the rod 14 by heating to a temperature to form a metal carbide bond at the surface therebetween. It is also contemplated that sleeve 11 may be friction tted over rod 14.
The inner member 15 may be machined from suitable biocompatible metals or metallic alloys, such as Vitallium, titanium alloys and stainless steel. The inner metallic rod portion 14 supplies structural strength and internal support to a carbonaceous sleeve 1:1 because of its greater elastic modulus and relatively high tensile strength. In this respect, the inner member should be made from a material having a tensile strength of at least about 50,000 p.s.i. Generally, the inner member will be made of a material having a modulus of elasticity at least about 10X106 p.s.i. In order to keep the modulus of elasticity of the composite bone pin in the desired range of that of living bone, i.e. between about 2 and 4 106 p.s.i., the inner member is usually not made from a material having a modulus higher than about 30x10S p.s.i.
To achieve the desired relatively low modulus of elasticity for the composite bone pin 10, the relatively high modulus metallic portions are disposed close to the 'central axis of the outer member or sleeve 11. Generally, the diameter of the rod portion is not greater than about 50 percent of the outer diameter of the sleeve. For example, when a sleeve 11 of constant diameter is used, the rod portion 14 will be coaxial and will have a diameter of approximately 1/3 to A that of the outside diameter of the sleeve 11. The exact ratio of diameters will be a function of the specic metallic and carbonaceous materials employed, to form a composite device whose modulus of elasticity approximates that of living bone. As shown in FIG. 2, the metallic rod 14 is disposed coaxially within carbonaceous sleeve 11 and has a diameter approximately 1A the outside diameter of sleeve 111.
FIG. 3 illustrates a bone pin 20 which is similar to the bone pin 10 to the extent that it includes a carbonaceous sleeve 21 having a central passageway 23 extending longitudinally therein which is coaxial with the sleeve. An inner member 24 has a metallic rod portion 25 that lits through the sleeve passageway 23 and an enlarged cone-shaped head 27, the rear surface of which abuts the end surface of the sleeve 21. The sleeve 21 is made from a suitable carbon material having a low modulus of elasticity, and the inner member 24 is made of a suitable biocompatible alloy having a high modulus of elasticity. The opposite end 29 of the rod 25, from that where the head 27 is disposed, is threaded and extends beyond the end of sleeve 21. A nut 31 is received on the threaded end 29 and is drawn up runtil it abuts the opposite end surface of sleeve 21, which surface is perpendicular to the sleeve axis. As the nut 31 is tightened, the sleeve 21 is placed in compression while the rod portion is placed in tension.
Because carbonaceous materials are substantially stronger when placed in compression, the prestressing utilized in pin 20 causes the carbon sleeve 21 to be structurally stronger and less prone to fracture. The nut 31 may have various shapes but generally is designed to abut and lie ilush against the adjacent end of the sleeve 21. To best accomplish this, a front surface of the nut 61 is disposed perpendicular to the threaded hole therethrough and has a smooth finish to allow the nut 31 to be tightened without interference.
FIG. 4 illustrates bone pin 40 which is generally similar to the bone pin 20 inasmuch as it employs an outer sleeve 41 that is placed in compression. The rod which extends through a longitudinal passageway 43 in the sleeve 41 is made up of front and rear sections 45 and 46, respectively, which engage each other within the longitudinal passageway 43 in the sleeve 41. The front section 45 has a conical head 47, and the rear section 46 has an end portion generally the size and shape of the nut 31. External threads 49 at the forward end of the rear rod section 46 are received in a threaded hole at the rear end of the front rod section 45. This arrangement locates the threaded engagement within longitudinal passageway 43 where it is shielded from direct contact with the body fluids and materials.
By combining biocompatible materials so as to locate the large volume, relatively low modulus carbon symmetrically about the small volume, relatively high modulus metalic alloy, one can produce a composite device having a modulus of elasticity only slightly above that of the outer member, and very close to the modulus of living bone. Calculation of the approximate combined modulus may be accomplished by use of the following formula for Youngs modulus:
ErodIrod l Esleevelsleevc Eeemposite: It t l where The magnitude of the moment of inertia is dependent upon the distance of the mass from the axis about which the moment is measured, and the moduli of the rod and the sleeve are determined by the material chosen. Thus it can be seen that the combined modulus of elasticity of the bone pin is primarily dependent upon the distance each of the high and low modulus materials used in the pin are disposed from the common longitudinal axis. If a high modulus metallic alloy is concentrated closely about the axis and a considerably larger volume of the low modulus carbon is disposed farther out from that same axis, the product of Esleeve and Isleeve will dominate the equation, producing a combined modulus very close to that of the sleeve material. In this manner, the modulus of the composite bone pin is matched to the relatively low modulus of living bone, i.e. about 2 106 to 4X106, while taking advantage of the structural strength of the metallic rod.
FIG. 5 illustrates a prosthesis 60 designed as a replacement for the upper portion of the femur which includes the ball section of the ball-and-socket hip joint. Prosthesis comprises an outer member 61 in the shape of a truncated cone of a material such as high-purity carbon. An inner member in the form of a rod 63 extends through a passageway 65 disposed along the axis of the sleeve 61. A threaded nut 67 of a metallic alloy, the same as that from which the rod 63 is made, is received on the threaded end portion of the rod. The opposite end of the rod 63 is embedded in a synthetic neck 69 member which is integral with a head or ball portion 71, both of which are formed from a suitable material, such as Vitallium, a titanium alloy, or stainless steel. The prothesis 60 is designed so the outer member 61 and the nut 67 are located within a remaining fragment 73 of living bone to form an anchor for the neck and ball members 69, 71. Because the portion of the prosthesis 60 embedded in the bone has a rigidity closely approximating the rigidity of natural living bone, an excellent anchor is provided.v The carbonaceous material from which the outer member 61 is made is conducive to bone growth, and thus its presence induces acceptance of the replacement prosthesis 60 as a permanent section of the joint.
FIGS. 6 through 8 .generally illustrate some examples of practical applications which may be made of bone pins, such as the pins 20 or 40. FIG. 6 shows a relatively long pin 75 which is disposed within the bone marrow and extends a sufficient distance on either side of a break 77 to carry the full loading from the undamaged area of one bone fragment 79 to the undamaged area of the other fragment 80. The bone pin 75 is similar to the pin 20 shown in FIG. 3, except for a conical nut 76 which is employed to facilitate its insertion. It is contemplated that the pin 75 would be inserted by drilling the bone from the end nearest the break, inserting the pin longitudinally and then filling the end of the drilled hole.
FIG. 7 illustrates securing two bone fragments by utilizing two relatively short pins 82 disposed transversely of a bone which has suffered an oblique fracture 83. Disposition of the pins 82 in this manner prevents longitudinal as well as lateral movement of bone fragments 85 and 87.
FIG. 8 shows a composite bone pin 90l which is disposed centrally within the neck of a femur to secure a relatively rare fracture 92 suffered between the head 93 and the neck 95. Close approximation of the modulus of living bone is considered particularly critical in this application because the femur, and especially the neck of the femur 95, is one of the main weight-bearing bone regions in the body. Stress on the pin 90 will be great, and there will be a considerable tendency for toggling of the pin, i.e., separation of the pin from the bone.
The biocompatibility and corrosion resistance of the composite pin in all of these applications allows it to remain permanently within the bone unless other physiological factors dictate otherwise. As long as the prosthesis is in place, it will perform very much like natural bone because of its similar rigidity and because it is conducive to new bone growth.
The following example illustrates one combination of a high-purity, low modulus carbon sleeve and a high strength, high modulus metallic alloy to form a prestressed, biocompatible, composite bone pin which performs excellently in the human body.
EXAMPLE A composite bone pin of the type shown in FIG. 3 is constructed from a sleeve of polycrystalline graphite I(sold under the trade name Poco AC Graphite) having a length of about 6 inches and an outer diameter of about 0.5 inch. This graphite has a density of about 1.9 g./cm.3 and an average cryystallite size (Lc) of about 300 A. The isotrophy of the graphite, measured by the method of Bacon (Journal of Applied Chemistry, 1956, volume 6, p. 477) is nearly 1.0, with 1.0 being perfectly isotropic carbon on the Bacon scale The carbon sleeve ts over -a 0.2 inch diameter rod portion of an inner member having a conical head at one end. The inner member is made of Vitallium, a cobalt-chromium alloy having a specific gravity of 8.29 and a tensile strength greater than 100,000 p.s.i. By tightening a threaded Vitallium nut at the opposite end of the rod, the sleeve is placed under compression of about 2000 p.s.i. The combined modulus of elasticity of the composite bone pin is calculated in Table I.

It is located in the marrow of a broken bone in the leg of a man in the manner generally shown in FIG. 6, extending to a distance of about 3 inches on each side of the break. Periodic X-rays show that the bone pin performs excellently. The lsimilarity in rigidity between the pin and living bone allows it to remain firmly and securely implanted within the bone without the toggling which has been found to occur when a stiffer pin is similarly implanted within a bone. The carbon sleeve and Vitallium inner member appear to be completely biocompatible. Normal bone growth in the region surrounding the pin occurs readily.

Boy Scouts Shut Down Two Troops Over Acceptance of LGBT Leader

Part 1: The Most Outrageous Ways Schools Are Trying To Enforce Gender Stereotypes
Pressuring kids to conform to traditional gender roles can have serious consequences. And reinforcing traditional gendered behavior can also teach kids to equate their gender with stereotypes that aren't always healthy.
Tara Culp-Ressler, ThinkProgress

April 23, 2014 | Over the past several years, school dress codes haven't been without controversy. Particularly because gender-based dress codes often end up furthering unhealthy attitudes about female sexuality — suggesting that it's girls' responsibility to cover up because boys can't help but get "distracted" — students and parents sometimes protest against what they see as a harmful approach to kids' understanding of gender roles.
There are other subtle ways that schools' clothing requirements impose messages about gender and sexuality on America's youth, too. In the name of creating a uniform learning environment without any distractions, school administrators often require students to fit into a narrowly defined view of what it means to be a boy or a girl. Here are five recent examples of schools attempting to police kids' gender expression, ultimately reinforcing unnecessary stereotypes about how girls and boys ought to behave.
Tara Culp-Ressler is the Health Editor for ThinkProgress. Before joining the ThinkProgress team, Tara deepened her interest in progressive politics from a faith-based perspective at several religious nonprofits, including Faith in Public Life, the National Religious Campaign Against Torture, and Interfaith Voices.

Part 2: We Don't Always Know When We're Biased
By default, schools in a society with deeply embedded institutional racism and sexism will replicate and perpetuate those problems.
Michael Diedrich, Minnesota 2020
April 11, 2014 |Most of the bias in our society operates without people being aware of their own bias.
Over at the Shanker Institute's blog, research associate Esther Quintero has rounded up some key points about implicit bias, which operates below the conscious level, using the same system as other mental shortcuts that help us function in day-to-day life.

Boy Scouts Shut Down Two Troops Over Acceptance of LGBT Leader, Curtis F, Addicting Info
No, this isn't about religion. Conservatives are engaging in behavior that they know could result in death, and they simply use their religion as an excuse to validate this dangerous behavior. Don't get it confused. These aren't the acts of religious people. This is outright hate.

"No, no. You've got something the test and machines will never be able to measure: you're artistic. That's one of the tragedies of our times, that no machine has ever been built that can recognize that quality, appreciate it, foster it, sympathize with it." —Paul Proteus to his wife Anita in Kurt Vonnegut's Player Piano
"So much depends upon a red wheel barrow glazed with rain water beside the white chickens" is, essentially, a grammatical sentence in the English language. While the syntax is somewhat out of the norm, the diction is accessible to small children—the hardest word likely being "depends." But "The Red Wheelbarrow" by William Carlos Williams is much more than a sentence; it is a poem.

The Boy Scouts of America shut down two troops when a church refused to fire a gay Boy Scout leader over his sexual orientation.
April 22, 2014 1:01 AM The homophobic rhetoric in America is reaching a fevered pitch now that a landslide of states have either legalized gay marriage or had bans ruled unconstitutional by their courts. One organization that has often been at the forefront of the idea that homosexual individuals shouldn't share the same rights as everyone else is the Boy Scouts of America (BSA). They took a few hits from conservative groups when they decided to allow gay youth to join the organization, but they may have just saved face by shutting down two Boy Scout units because it turned out that their leader is a gay Boy Scout Scoutmaster.
"No Gays Allowed"
Seattle's Rainier Beach United Methodist Church had, until very recently, two Boy Scout units under its wing. The BSA had granted the two units, Pack 98 and Troop 98, along with the church their own charters. Unfortunately for the units, it was discovered that Geoffrey McGrath, the boys' Scoutmaster, is gay. At that point, the church was asked to remove McGrath, and their (the church's) response was pretty epic.

Main ingredents
7 lbs. of liquid amber extract
5 ounces of chocolate malt
5 ounces of black patent malt
5 ounces cherrywood smoked malt
10 ounces crystal malt (60L)
24 oz of grade A maple syrup (amber)
Or Syrup of your choice, so long as its 100% maple
1.5 oz English Fuggles hoppps (60 m)
.5 oz English fuggles hopps (15)
Safeale British ale yeast
1 package of dextrose sugar (priming)
Dry hopping
1-3 ounces of oven fried (oil drained) bacon
One ounce per gallon
that's the general recipe that I've gotten so far (from other peoples attempts) at a bacon styled beer.
I have a lot of friends that would LOVE to finance me to make this for them, so its very appealing to at least try, but I have to know, does my recipe sound any good?
and has anyone enjoyed their bacon beer? The reason why I only specified about a ounce of bacon per gallon is because I cannot eat/drink bacon(jew/vegetarain) and only wanted to dry hop 3/5ths of my brew to meet the bacon demand (the rest I plan on keeping as a simple maple porter).
Id probably start this one as soon as I finish up the guiness clone recipe I found (2-4 weeks from now)
That reminds me of this: http://www.homebrewtalk.com/wiki/index.php/Cock_Ale
What you're doing is not something I would ever attempt, but I would love to hear how it turns out for you.
To paraphrase Dr. England - "Off-flavors smooth with time. So do mountains. Brew it right from the start!"
My blogsite: http://nateobrew.blogspot.com/
Interesting, go for it! I've never used bacon in beer, but have read that your technique of oven frying should work to remove the fat which you don't want in the fermenter.
The only other suggestion I would make is to add the maple syrup to the secondary, like I would Belgian candy sugar or honey.
One of my friends asked me today to help him make a Bacon beer, i might try this but i think i will put both the bacon and the maple syrup in secondary. Lots more control over how big of a bacon maple flavor it will add.
Maybe i will just put bacon in a hop rocket and filter from fermentor to keg through it
Im kind of excited to get this going!

STEM-CORE Program Announces 21 Newly Named Affiliate Faculty
STEM Center for Outreach, Research and Education (STEM-CORE) widens ability to help community.
Officials at Texas Tech University's STEM Center for Outreach, Research & Education (STEM-CORE) announced the addition of 21 additional affiliate faculty to help develop educational and outreach activities that encourage learning and education in science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM).
Affiliates were chosen because of their interest in STEM outreach, research and education and because of their willingness to contribute to the goals and mission of the center, said Jerry Dwyer, director of STEM-CORE and a professor of mathematics.
"The group represents all the STEM colleges on campus," he said. "They will meet regularly with STEM-CORE associate directors and assist with developing websites, grant proposals and literature resources for the center. We are proud to add their talent and expertise to our cause, and they will serve as a further resource for the campus community in our efforts to enhance STEM education, outreach and research."
A major campus-wide dialogue on the development of a STEM center began in Fall 2011. This issue was promoted and moved forward with the support of the deans of six colleges at Texas Tech. The resulting STEM-CORE was officially established in Spring 2013.
