For 21 years Robert has been studying and practicing Zen Buddhism, and for over six years of that time trained intensively as a Zen Buddhist monastic at Tassajara, Zen Mountain Center. Robert was ordained as a Zen Buddhist priest in 2000 and received Dharma Transmission from his teacher, Zoketsu Norman Fischer in 2009. (his Dharma name is Shi-Zan Do-On; Lion Mountain, Path of Kindness)
Robert's Buddhist practice and teaching is focused on helping people to realize the practical benefits of Zen meditation, extending a deeply grounded, yet open, generous, expansive and agile awareness into the activities of daily life. As a Dharma Teacher, he leads meditation retreats, workshops, and give public lectures throughout the year.
Since 2001 Robert has also been a leader of the San Francisco Zen Center (SFZC) community founded in 1962 by Shunryu Suzuki Roshi, and now one of the largest Buddhist sanghas outside of Asia. From 2005 to 2013 he served SFZC as President/Executive Director, overseeing the running of all three centers (Tassajara, Green Gulch Farm, and City Center) and guiding its long-term vision to bring the wisdom and compassion of the Buddha to the world. In 2012 he became a visiting Dharma Teacher at Upaya Zen Center in Santa Fe, New Mexico. Currently he is leading an exciting SFZC initiative to develop an online 'practice center.'
For many years Robert has been active in the San Francisco community, having served on the board of the Hayes Valley Neighborhood Association, and currently for over ten years as a board member of Everyday Inc., which oversees the management of Greens Restaurant in San Francisco. Prior to full-time involvement with SFZC, he worked professionally as a film and video director and as a magazine editor/creative director.
Since 1993 Robert has traveled extensively in South America and Asia, often with his wife, yoga teacher and acupuncturist, Samantha Ostergaard, studying with teachers from various Buddhist/spiritual traditions at practice centers in Thailand, India and Nepal.

DOBSON — Emergency crews as well as power crews responded to the scene of a weather-related fatal wreck on Prison Camp Road that occurred Monday night.
According to information from John Shelton, director of Surry County Emergency Services, a 26-year-old man was killed when a large oak tree fell in front of his small Ford pick-up truck as it traveled near 1437 Prison Camp Road toward Dobson, roughly two miles below the North Carolina Department of Transportation Center.
Shelton said speed did not appear to be a factor in the accident. He said the driver had no time to react and crashed into the large oak tree which fell directly in front of the vehicle. Shelton said the emergency call for the accident was received at about 6:51 p.m.
Traffic was routed along Old County Home Road around the scene, where live power lines were downed as well. The identity of the victim was being withheld pending notification of the family.

Pedestrian Safety
Whether your kids are walking to school, the park or a friend's house, here are a few simple tips to make sure they get there safely.
The Hard Facts
Unintentional pedestrian injuries are the fifth leading cause of injury-related death in the United States for children ages 5 to 19. Teenagers are now at greatest risk. Teens have a death rate twice that of younger children and account for half of all child pedestrian deaths.
Top Tips
- Talk to your kids about how to be safe while walking. It's always best to walk on sidewalks or paths and cross at street corners, using traffic signals and crosswalks.
- Teach kids at an early age to put down their devices and then look left, right and left again when crossing the street.
- Children under 10 should cross the street with an adult. Every child is different, but developmentally, it can be hard for kids to judge speed and distance of cars until age 10.
- Remind kids to make eye contact with drivers before crossing the street and to watch out for cars that are turning or backing up.
- When driving,be especially alert in residential neighborhoods and school zones and be on the lookout for bikers, walkers or runners who may be distracted or may step into the street unexpectedly.

Even though a powerful storm system blasted Aiken with heavy rain and high winds Wednesday night, it didn't cause serious problems.
A tree fell on Columbia Avenue in North Aiken and blocked the road around 8 p.m., but it was cleared away quickly, according to Cpt. David Turno of the Aiken Department of Public Safety.
Sgt. Jake Mahoney, also with Public Safety, reported there was spot flooding on Whiskey Road and in other areas.
"This storm had a lot of warning with it from all the news that was covering it," Turno said. "We saw some of the damage that happened in Georgia, so we were prepared. But we were pleasantly surprised that we didn't suffer any damage like others did."
The Aiken County Sheriff's Office also didn't hear of any severe difficulties caused by the storm system.
"The only reports of damage we had were just that some tree limbs were blown down, nothing major," said Sgt. Jason Feemster. "That was all our dispatch was made aware of."
Robert Yanity, a spokesman for SCG&E, said the number of customers reporting outages was "about 3,100 system-wide at our peak." At one point, approximately 1,000 of those customers were in Aiken County, he said.
"It was hard to determine an exact number," he said. "We saw the number just go up and down, so 3,100 is kind of a rough estimate."
On Thursday, SCE&G's website reported there was no outages in Aiken County.
"They are scattered around Columbia and the Charleston area," said Yanity of the remaining outages. "The number is significantly lower than what we had earlier today, and we'll still keep working until we get everybody back up."
Many of SCE&G's electricity customers live in the southwestern quadrant of South Carolina.
"I think the brunt of the storm actually passed a little bit north of us, so we're pleased with that," Yanity said. "Of course, we're always prepared no matter what the situation is, but we certainly didn't have the vast amount (of outages) that we were expecting and were prepared for."
Outages caused by the storm affected 2,500 to 3,000 households served by Aiken Electric Cooperative, according to Muriel Carter, the cooperative's communications coordinator. The cooperative has around 45,000 customers.
"If it was any worse, we would have called in the ranks," Carter said. "It was on the verge of being major; it was big. But we were able to repair them (the problems involving outages) quickly and get them all back up."

There are some games you dont forget.
This was one of them.
This game had it all lots of blown calls, great defensive plays, hard hustle by both teams, passionate debate from the coaches, umpires and even some fans.
When the dust settled Hartsville came out on top, winning 5-2 in the HIT bracket finals over Berkeley April 16.
There was no love lost between these two newborn rivals, who will probably meet again somewhere down the line in the playoffs with a season on the line.
The Stags cant wait.
This is war plain and simple, said Coach Landy Cox during the 11-inning, three-and-a-half hour marathon that didnt end until almost midnight.
The game saw classic pitching from Stags hurlers Joe Glauser and Jeffrey Stone, pitching out of possible game-ending jams. Everything a coach wants to see.
There was some great clutch hitting with the Stags down by a run in the seventh inning to keep the game alive, and potential game-winning hits in the extra innings only to have the rally squelched by a great defensive play from Hartsville.
A three-run top of the eleventh gave the game to Hartsville, but as Cox told his players, this is just the HIT tournament.
We resume playing for real next week for the real prize, a region championship, he said.
This game and how the Berkeley nine played throughout the tournament was one giant leap for Stag-kind in realizing a back-to-back region title.
Zach Gonzales, had himself a day, following stellar eight-inning pitching performance earlier in the day with a three-hit night. And when Hartsville didnt walk him, his outs left a couple red marks behind.
Kyle Garrick continued his clutch hitting for the tournament with a pair of hits.
Stone, who relieved Glauser in the sixth, pitched out of jam after jam, scattering seven hits over four-and-two-thirds innings.
A 35-minute bench clearing altercation in the eighth inning delayed the contest.
These were two great ball teams going nose-to-nose and refusing to give an inch, Cox said. Great baseball game.
The Stags finished 3-1 for the HIT tournament and stand at 15-3 for the year.
The five runs surrendered to Hartsville were the most runs given up by the Stags all season and resulted in a tiny bump to Berkeleys team 0.88 ERA.
This team throws strikes and when opponents hit the ball, one of the eight guys behind the mound catches it.
Glauser and Stone have gobbled up a ton of quality innings on the mound while Gonzales got healthy. Now, with the playoffs looming, BHS will enter the fray with three game-stopping arms.
At the plate the Stags are hitting .312 as a team. Not as high as the two previous seasons, but they get the big hits when they are needed most.
Dillon Salisbury hasnt taken a bad swing all season and leads the way with a .426 average. Chase Ganey, just a sophomore, follows up at .421 and found himself at the plate with the game on the line several times last week alone.
More times than not the Stags third baseman has delivered the big hits.
Berkeley averages a little more than seven runs a game to support a pitching staff that allows less than a run a game.
The Stags resume play this week with four games in four days, hitting the road to take on Stall and Orangeburg-Wilkinson, plus a non-region tilt against Summerville sandwiched in between, before returning to Jim Bradley Field on Thursday to play Hilton Head for the Region 8AAA championship.
Dog pile sightings are expected.

Quote from: Beloved Servant on May 09, 2010, 07:25:53 AM"losing the battle" ? Indeed, he (Paul) thought so... but you would already know this if you read his writings! Paul
"losing the battle" ?
Read Paul's letters... many were written to refute the thorn in his side... Paul was constantly having to defend his teachings to the Churches he started. Why? Because the thorn was from Jerusalem and claimed more authority! To be honest, in Paul's time... He was losing the battle... He even tells us so! This Thorn was serious business in Paul's eyes! The thorn was making Paul obsolete and of little importance. I can show you from Paul's own words!Paul
...and counted it all as JOY!

McFarlane Toys is bringing two new Halo products sure to excite both the avid Halo universe collector and fans of the new videogame blockbuster, Halo 4!
Our Knight action figure stands approximately 9 inches tall, towering over Master Chief and the Spartan-IVs of the UNSC Infinity. This version of the Knight comes with the deadly Scattershot, the Forerunner's twist on the shotgun, mounted on its right arm, plus a fearsome energy blade on its left. In Halo 4, and our action figures, Knights have a special synergy with the Watcher support unit. Our Knight figure includes an opening compartment in its back that can be used to carry our Watcher figure (available in Halo 4 Series 1 - Action Figures Assortment Extended) onto the battlefield! This figure will be available in limited quantities this December.
The fan-favorite final chapter of the 2010 animated movie, Halo Legends, was a short film titled "The Package." In this segment, a team of elite Spartan-II soldiers is sent to retrieve a critical "package" from the depths of a massive enemy spaceship. As their team members fall to the overwhelming alien force, the success of the mission depends on the three remaining soldiers: the Master Chief, Frederic-104, and Kelly-087. This three-pack brings that heroic trio of Spartans to your action figure collection, just as seen on the poster for the thrilling conclusion of Halo Legends. This boxed set will be available in January 2013.
If you are still trying to check off Halo fans off your holiday list, here are plenty of other Halo products available now!

Channing Tatum Wore Fifty Shades-Like Mask at Party With Ashley Greene, Audrina Patridge, and Stripping Guys
You guys, we missed a great party.
Channing Tatum hosted an event called "Touchdown on Bourbon Street" Saturday night at his Saints and Sinners bar in New Orleans. At $1,000 a ticket, 50 people were allowed to be VIPs and hang out with Channing and his closest friends.
According to the New York Post's Page Six, some of the partygoers included Twilight star Ashley Greene, The Hills's Audrina Patridge, and UFC champion Cung Le — who got into faux fight with a guy that got people nervous, moving to break up what they thought was a real brawl. Just boys being boys. Speaking of, Page Six said a group of guys pulled a Magic Mike, stripping down to their skivvies and grooving to the music to get Channing's attention, since he was throwing Mardi Gras beads down to fans. (It was Super Bowl weekend in The Big Easy, so it was basically like a mini Mardi Gras.) And at one point Channing was reportedly seen in a black mask that looked like a prop out of Fifty Shades of Grey. (Cast him as Christian? Don't cast him as Christian?)
Channing's pregnant wife, Jenna Dewan-Tatum, wasn't at the event, but he took some time to talk to E! News and gushed about how a woman's pregnancy is just about the sexiest thing ever. So she's still #1 in his life, even when he's at a bar, surrounded by beautiful girls and other hot guys doing crazy things.

People who are too successful in saving for their retirement through a pension will penalised with a 55 per cent tax rate when the lifetime allowance threshold (LTA) is reduced from £1.5m to £1.25m on 6 April, says ACCA (the Association of Chartered Certified Accountants).
When the new limit comes into force, any excess above the £1.25m will be taxed at 55 per cent. ACCA says this might discourage people from saving too much for when they retire.
Chas Roy-Chowdhury, ACCA head of taxation, said: 'While £1.25m might seem like a lot, the limit is not a penalty specifically on the rich. For those in their 30s and 40s, £1.25m or more might resemble a not uncommon-sized pension pot by the time they retire in 30 years' time.
'Even today, a surprisingly high number of those nearing retirement are likely to have pension pots edging over that limit. The on-set of paying 55 per cent tax on the amount saved above the threshold is hardly an incentive for people to save for their retirement through a pension.
'Those in the public sector will probably see the full impact of this the most, as many are still in the final salary schemes that will pay out higher amounts and therefore create a higher value 'pension pot'.'
ACCA says there are ways to limit the impact of this retirement tax. HMRC has a scheme that allows retirees to protect pension pots of more than £1.25m but less than £1.5 million.
While savers will be able to keep their £1.5m limit, this does freeze the pension and savers cannot contribute any more to their retirement pot. However, savers have until 5 April 2014 to 'fix' their pension threshold in this way.
Chas Roy-Chowdhury said: 'This is a case of act now or pay later. Retirement might seem like a long way off for many at the moment, but the last thing you will want during your retirement is a huge tax bill eating into savings you have built up through your whole working life. It is worth seeking professional financial advice from a chartered certified accountant to find out all the options available to you before the new threshold kicks in.'

Jeff Whitehead, executive director of Eastern Kentucky Concentrated Employment Program (EKCEP) in Hazard, has been named the recipient of the highest service award given to an individual by one of the region's 16 colleges in the Kentucky Community and Technical College System (KCTCS).
Dr. W. Bruce Ayers, president of Southeast Kentucky Community and Technical College (SKCTC), honored Whitehead with the President's Service Award during the college's fall/winter commencement, held Dec. 7 in the Godbey Appalachian Center on the SKCTC Cumberland Campus.
The honor is the highest award offered by the college and is given to those who work tirelessly to make the region and its people successes.
Whitehead is executive director of EKCEP and its Local Workforce Investment Board (WIB), which provide workforce and employer services to 23 rural Appalachian counties in Eastern Kentucky. Whitehead has led various aspects of operations at EKCEP for more than 22 years, including the last five as executive director.
In times of surging unemployment rates and shrinking budgets, Whitehead is working to ensure EKCEP becomes more relevant than ever to job seekers and employers across its service area by being nimble, creative, and responsive in its approach to delivering its array of services, which operate under the mission of "jobs for people … people for jobs."
To build this relevance, Whitehead and EKCEP are embracing new partnerships and service strategies that better align workforce development with the needs of the region's employers needs by addressing recognized skills gaps with targeted, customized training. By doing so, Whitehead believes workforce development can prove itself an invaluable catalyst toward local and regional economic development.
Under Whitehead's leadership, EKCEP also established the Job Clubs of Eastern Kentucky support network as a way to rapidly help the unemployed in the region by placing them in direct contact with expert career advising. This strategy has proven time and again to make Job Club members far more successful at landing a job than job seekers who search alone.
Additionally, the organization has developed the award-winning Kentucky Teleworks service, which partners with companies around the globe to screen and provide them with employees for legitimate, well-paid, work-from-home job opportunities in fields such as customer support, IT, data entry, sales, and more.
"I have the privilege of working with a tremendous group of professionals and community leaders during a time when the workforce must respond to a great many challenges associated with a global economy, advancing technologies, an aging workforce, environmental concerns, debt, and tightening budgets," Whitehead said.
"Despite these challenges, we continue to strive to bring prosperity to our region by helping develop the best-prepared workforce possible, and ensuring that Eastern Kentucky's employers are not hindered by workforce shortages."

You've had a lot of liberals lamenting the collapse of the rule of law the last decade. This would appear to be a situation where the rule of law and rights of the accused are most important. It's precisely when the media and the people have already decided the guilt of the accused (and are competing to describe his evil in the most lurid hyperbole) that these principles are the most important. And yet I find silence on that presumption of innocence from most liberal commentators, or the outright abandonment of it, when it comes to this particular case.
This particular case involves disturbing admitted attitudes and behaviors and a great deal of incriminating testimony. But the presumption of innocence is the bedrock principle of our legal system, and it applies until the legal process has run its course. And it has nothing to do with belief that the accused will eventually be found not guilty, or sympathy for the accused. I can generate no such sympathy for Jerry Sandusky. But I have to point out that precisely the same liberals who beat their breast about the terrible collapse of the rule of law are now trying to outdo each other in the expression of their outrage, directly against the presumption of innocence. I don't expect any different from conservatives, who by and large believe that any accusation is true if it is voiced-- unless it's sexual harassment, rape, or police misconduct, that is. But liberals who have staked many claims on the rule of law and the principles which undergird it suddenly find that commitment unpalatable, when it has become so unpopular.
I doubt you'll find many expressing that perspective, though.
Update: mistermix made some astute points here. This is what I said in comments.
I recognize the distinction. I just think that trial by media is a poor idea, as Richard Jewel could have told you when he was alive. And while I recognize that the legal right to a fair trial is distinct from the opinions on guilt of the public, I also think that it becomes functionally impossible to get that fair trial when the public is convinced there's no chance the accused is innocent.Update II: The consensus is that I'm full of shit here. (Although you know how little I value consensus!)
It's a fair point about the institution, but recognize that the same criticism holds: they are accused of crimes and deserve the presumption of innocence.
It seems likely to me that Sandusky is guilty, and thank god we don't have a legal system predicated on the opinions of those minimally informed by the media. If he is guilty, he should spend the rest of his life in jail. Just like those in Guantanamo Bay should receive appropriate punishments, if they have been proven to have committed crimes in court.
Finally, on the outrage thing-- for me, "child rapist" is enough. I don't need to dig any further into my vocabulary to find appropriately angry terms. "Child rapist" says more than any purple prose ever could. It's just like with bin Laden. Why is "terrorist responsible for 3,000 people killed on 9/11" not sufficient? When people dig so deeply into their bag of outrage, at some point it ceases to be about the victim and instead becomes about them.

Born in 1956, I remain the product of a lifetime spent primarily in small town America. One of my earliest memories is of watching a stampede of cows race by me, as they left the pasture to be fed. I recall greeting them with a polite "Hello Cow!" as they hurtled past the open gate. I also remember my mother's frantic calls, as she ran up the hill to save me from the thundering herd. The memory comes from a time when we lived on Wheelbarrow Hill Road, near Great Barrington, Massachusetts, where my father worked as the principal at a local elementary school. During the summers, Dad also served as a riflery instructor at a local summer camp. My life was pretty much normal for a 1950-60's era kid. It was a time when children were still kept relatively innocent to adult affairs. Telephone calls were dialed with just three numbers and television shows were mostly westerns. 'Beatles' were still just insects we collected to mount on pins in a little cardboard box.
I was just another innocent kid in an innocent age, until I started school. That is when I learned to fear the 'Commies!' I don't really remember when I was first introduced to the concept of hating the Commies, but I do recall the first time I was instructed to hide under my desk at school for an air-raid drill. My initial fears were soon overcome, when I realized the horde of chewing gum stuck to the bottom of the classroom desks. In following years, I came to appreciate the threat of Commie attacks, especially after the air-raid drill sirens saved me from a particular test I had never bothered to prepare for. The best of all were the air raid drills that required students to huddle in the hallways. There were a lot of shenanigans going on when we were all crouched down and lined up, head to butt along the cinderblock walls. None of our teachers every bothered to explain how the old block walls would actually protect us from an atomic blast. However, as youngsters we dutifully followed instructions from our teachers, and cursed the Commies, even if we didn't understand why. It certainly was a far different time.

Adventure Harbor Tours expands fleet
By Sully Witte
Captain Howie Weil has one heck of a sense of humor. And his lovely wife Katie, has the patience of a saint. Those two things have allowed Weil the opportunity to build a successful boat charter business out of Charleston Harbor.
He now owns The Charleston Explorer, one of East Coopers largest capacity charter boats.
He doesnt consider himself the smartest man in the world, but he said hes a very hard worker. That hard work paid off and afforded him room to expand his fleet. His most recent purchase was that of the Charleston Explorer - a 54 Sea Ark capable of carrying 80 people and landing on the beach.
The Charleston Explorer may be familiar to locals, as its previous owners berthed her in Charleston Harbor Marina and took her and her passengers to all the local hot spots.
This stout, industrial grade boat will once again grace the harbor, but now under the guidance of Weil.
His company, Adventure Harbor Tours was not born overnight. According to Weil he had numerous career changes but always managed to find time to screw around on boats. He got a job as a mate first on Charlestons first water taxi crewing on the weekends. He worked on gaining sea time by working for everyone else in the harbor until he got his own captains license.
I had just gotten married and was trying to live this Jimmy Buffet lifestyle, he said.
And as Weil said, it did not take a mathematician to figure out that the lifestyle really wasnt going to work. There was no future in it.
Thats when Weil decided he wanted to buy a boat.
My wife said hell no we have a wedding to pay for. But I came back to her and said what if I did some charters. I can do one charter a month make the boat payment. She said Im listening, we outlined a plan, and went for it.
Weil said that before he knew it, the phone was ringing off the hook.
Thats when he dropped everything else and focused on his new charter business.
He first had a 20 flats boat that could carry six people. One day he made nine trips to Morris Island. Working 12 hours seemed too much, so he began looking for a bigger boat.
He had a new boat that could hold 12 people. His father thought he was crazy to spend that much money. But he quickly doubled the people in half the time.
Weil said it was the only time his father admitted to perhaps being wrong.
His business has outgrown three boats and last summer ran his 36 boat at capacity all summer.
When the Charleston Explorer became available my dad gave me his blessing, he said. The trip that put Adventure Harbor Tours on the map is the three hours Morris Island trip. It is a 15 minute ride out to the island, with a quick stop next to Fort Sumter to show off the areas history. Captain Weil then lands the boat on the island, invoking a little more about the local history and nature and then the kids are sent off on the adventure to collect shells and sharks teeth. Every single day you can find sharks teeth, he said, and of course thats a hit with all ages.
This year Weil will be introducing a new nature and eco-tour on the Charleston Explorer which will be hands-on with science and nature themes with an emphasis on conservation. He likens it to a nature day camp where kids can learn to throw a cast net, pull up a crab pot, learn knots and seamanship.
The Charleston Explorer is also available for school groups, weddings, parties and private charters. And because the boat can land right on the beach, parties can be hosted on-shore as well. The boat is also enclosed, allowing it to be used year-round.
I used to be a beer and wine salesman and I had a grocery store route, Weil said. I would go in and be looking to make a sale and the manager would see me and walk the other way, he said.
Now I am in a position where people want to come and hang with me on the water. Im in a much better place. I thrive in entertaining people and this has gone very well. I get to show off this magnificent harbor. I am the luckiest guy in Charleston - no smarter - just a hard worker.

Gabrielle Union, Tika Sumpter & More Attend Being Mary Jane Premiere
Gabrielle Union better werk that dress!
Last night, BET screened their latest show, 'Being Mary Jane' at the 16th Annual UrbanWorld Film Festival in New York City. Grabrielle Union, star of the new hour-long series, looked stunning as she walked the red carpet in a silver and black dress with Giuseppe Zanotti pumps and later graced the stage to talk to the audience about being a part of the network's latest project.
Brought to you by dynamic duo Salim and Mara Brock Akil ('Girlfriends,' 'The Game', 'Soul Food'), the show centers around Gabby's character Mary Jane Paul, an anchorwoman who is trying to juggle life, work, and her commitment to her family as a single Black female. From the sounds of things, the show's first episode will premiere as a 2 hour original movie (somewhat like VH1's Single Ladies) .
Actress Tika Sumpter, who also stars in the series, attended the screening as well as Mara Brock & Salim Akil, BET's Debra Lee and 'Basketball Wives' star Jennifer Williams.
More pics below:

- GEANT4 : a simulation toolkit (2003)
- Abstract Geant4 is a toolkit for simulating the passage of particles through matter. It includes a complete range of functionality including tracking, geometry, physics models and hits. The physics processes offered cover a comprehensive range, including electromagnetic, hadronic and optical processes, a large set of long-lived particles, materials and elements, over a wide energy range starting, in some cases, from 250 eV and extending in others to the TeV energy range. It has been designed and constructed to expose the physics models utilised, to handle complex geometries, and to enable its easy adaptation for optimal use in different sets of applications. The toolkit is the result of a worldwide collaboration of physicists and software engineers. It has been created exploiting software engineering and object-oriented technology and implemented in the C++ programming language. It has been used in applications in particle physics, nuclear physics, accelerator design, space engineering and medical physics. PACS: 07.05.Tp; 13; 23
- Importance of momentum dependent interactions for the extraction of the nuclear equation of state from high-energy heavy ion collisions (1987)
- We demonstrate that momentum-dependent nuclear interactions (MDI) have a large effect on the dynamics and on the observables of high-energy heavy-ion collisions: A soft potential with MDI suppresses pion and kaon yields much more strongly than a local hard potential and results in transverse momenta intermediate between soft and hard local potentials. The collective-flow angles and the deuteron-to-proton ratios are rather insensitive to the MDI. Only simultaneous measurements of these observables can give clues on the nuclear equation of state at densities of interest for supernova collapse and neutron-star stability.
- Monte Carlo model for multiparticle production at ultrarelativistic energies (1994)
- The Monte Carlo parton string model for multiparticle production in hadron-hadron, hadron-nucleus, and nucleus-nucleus collisions at high energies is described. An adequate choice of the parameters in the model gives the possibility of recovering the main results of the dual parton model, with the advantage of treating both hadron and nuclear interactions on the same footing, reducing them to interactions between partons. Also the possibility of considering both soft and hard parton interactions is introduced.
- Freeze out in hydrodynamical models (1999)
- We study the effects of strict conservation laws and the problem of negative contributions to final momentum distribution during the freeze out through 3-dimensional hypersurfaces with space-like normal. We study some suggested solutions for this problem, and demonstrate it on one example. PACS: 24.10.Nz, 25.75.-q
- Non-ideal particle distributions from kinetic freeze out models (1998)
- In fluid dynamical models the freeze out of particles across a three dimensional space-time hypersurface is discussed. The calculation of final momentum distribution of emitted particles is described for freeze out surfaces, with both space-like and time-like normals, taking into account conservation laws across the freeze out discontinuity.
- Photonuclear effect in heavy deformed nuclei (1966)
- The theory of Raman scattering is extended to include electric-quadrupole radiation. The results obtained are used to compute the elastic and Raman scattering cross sections of heavy deformed nuclei. The dipole and quadrupole resonances are described by a previously developed theory which includes surface vibrations and rotations. The computed cross sections are compared with experimental data for all those nuclei where both absorption and scattering cross sections are available. Some discrepances still exist in certain details; however, the over-all agreement between theory and experiment is very good.
- Magnetic neutrino scattering by crystals (1990)
- The magnetic dipole scattering of neutrinos by the electrostatic potentials of single atoms as well as crystals is investigated. It is shown that scattering by a rigid cubic lattice can amplify the neutrino-atom cross section by a factor of N1/3, N being the number of scatterers. However, comparing the results with typical weak-interaction cross sections, the effect seems to be not observable in experiment.
- Quantum-mechanical treatment of high-energy channeling radiation (1995)
- An alternative theoretical description of axial electron channeling in the multi-GeV region has been developed. We solve a kinetic equation to evaluate an electron distribution function in axially oriented single crystals. Based on the single-string model, the required matrix elements for radiation and scattering by lattice vibrations are calculated employing solutions of the Dirac equation in cylindrical coordinates. Results obtained for 150-GeV electrons propagating along the 〈110〉 axis of germanium are in good agreement with experimental observations.
- Cold-fission yields at effective excitation energies (1995)
- The experimental cold-fission yields for the system 233U(nth, f) are analyzed as function of the effective total excitation energy (TXE). The nuclear level density effect is taken into account at higher TXE, in order to benefit by the lower experimental data uncertainty as well as to avoid the quantitative account of the level densities close to fragment ground states. In this way the odd-even staggering which appears in the yields extrapolated at zero excitation energy by using the level densities, vanishes. We conclude that the cold nuclear fragmentation theory including the dynamical model describes well the experimental data.
- Pion chemical equilibration in heavy ion collisions : relativistic quantum molecular dynamic analysis (1992)
- In the framework of relativistic quantum molecular dynamics the authors find that the pion system produced in central heavy-ion collisions at Elab/A approximately 1 GeV/nucl. is out of chemical equilibrium. Pion chemical potential is large and decreases during the expansion stage.

If the jowl problem is minor, nonsurgical treatments, such as fillers, can be very effective. For a drooping, or under-projected, chin, liposuction can be used to improve the neckline. This may also be combined with a chin implant. If the neck is in good position and the jowls are heavy, a minimally invasive "mini-lift" may be effective. However, if the neck is loose, sometimes a standard facelift is the best option.

Aging is a complicated process. As the face ages, there's more going on than just sagging skin. The foundation of the face (the superficial muscular aponeurotic system, or SMAS, layer) loosens. At the same time, the face is also losing subcutaneous fat. Understanding these factors is important when planning a facial procedure, which must re-suspend the foundation layer and correct for fat loss.
1 AnswerKimberly Snyder, Nutrition & Dietetics, answered
Foods that can reduce the appearance of cellulite are ones that build up or plump collagen, and ones that are anti-inflammatory, including cilantro, citrus fruits, fiber and oat groats. Watch nutritionist Kimberly Snyder, CN, describe these foods.
1 AnswerKulreet Chaudhary, MD, Neurology, answeredFrom an ayurvedic perspective, the health of your skin is directly related to your diet. In fact, one of the reasons that stress can cause sudden and severe acne outbreaks is because of the immediate impact that stress has on your digestive system. To help improve your digestion, follow the general dietary guidelines listed below. Remember, this is a long-term commitment and you have to keep these recommendations in mind for the long haul.
- Eat warm, soft, cooked foods.
- Avoid raw vegetables and salads.
- Drink beverages at room temperature or warm.
- Avoid cold drinks and frozen desserts (such as ice cream, popsicles, frozen yogurt, etc.).
- Reduce light, dry, crunchy food.
- Reduce spicy, sour, fried, and fermented foods.
- Reduce yogurt, alcohol, coffee, vinegar, tomatoes, onions, garlic, and cheese.
1 AnswerDepending on your precise issues -- whether you have wrinkles, oiliness, brown pigmentation, visible pores, acne, or loose or thin skin -- your physician will prescribe a skin care regimen that includes one or more creams. If you are serious about your skin, you will have to make some changes.
A skin care program begins with clean skin. You should wash thoroughly in the morning and the evening. Your cleanser should be mild and not leave a residue. Creams need to be applied in the morning and evening. Common products include tretinoin, vitamin C, hydroquinone, hydrocortisone, an alpha hydroxy acid (AHA) as well as a sunblock, and maybe a toner. Other treatments may be prescribed.

1 AnswerGlabridin, an ingredient of licorice extract, is a natural skin lightener. While it does not work as effectively as hydroquinone, it does not appear to have long-term side effects. Glabridin shows promise as a skin lightener but needs more studies, and like so many "naturally occurring herbs," there is little standardization of purity of glabridin and little agreement on the needed concentration.

1 AnswerPolyhydroxy acids (PHAs) have many of the same benefits as alpha hydroxy acids (AHAs) but are less irritating. As antioxidants and moisturizers, they improve the appearance of sun-damaged aging skin. PHAs can be used in combination with retinoic acid for acne and with hydroquinones to lighten the skin. PHAs do not increase sensitivity to UV light, and they provide AHA-type anti-aging benefits as well as moisturization and protection from free radical damage.

1 AnswerMany skin creams do not work because they simply cannot penetrate the protective outer layer of the skin. Even though a cream may work on cells in a test tube, that does not mean it will work clinically and make skin healthier and more attractive. Small molecules, such as alpha hydroxy acids (AHAs) and vitamins, have a chance at penetrating the upper layers of skin and acting on the lower layers. Large molecules, such as growth hormones, proteins, collagen, and hyaluronic acid, really have little chance of penetrating the skin. Whether peptides, strings of amino acids, can penetrate the skin is also questionable.
The skin can be viewed as a chain-link fence. Ping-Pong balls and marbles fit easily through the holes. Tennis balls may be able to squeeze through, with a little help. Anything larger, such as a baseball, won't pass through. Even though some creams may be capable of astounding marvels in a test tube, if they can't get through the fence, they can't play ball. They will be useless. In a nutshell, that's the problem with many large-molecule creams. Botox is injected through the fence; glycolic acid, vitamin C, and tretinoin pass right through the holes. But proteins, collagen, and other large compounds just sit outside.

Verizon sells 3.1 million iPhones in Q3 2012
Verizon has reported that Q3 2012 results, including over 3.1 million iPhones sold, over a fifth of which were Apple's latest generation iPhone 5. That compares to 3.4 million Android phones. That's an interesting mix given the iPhone 5 launched less than a month ago, and iPhone sales in general were greatly reduced prior to that. Lowell McAdam, Verizon chairman and CEO had this to say:
In the third quarter, Verizon continued to deliver double-digit earnings growth and strong cash generation, and we remain solidly on track to meet our financial objectives for the year. With our 4G LTE network advantage, well-received Share Everything Plans and unmatched product portfolio, Verizon Wireless continues to do an outstanding job of balancing growth and profitability. Wireless achieved record profitability in a quarter in which we reported the highest number of retail postpaid gross and net adds in four years.
And the Verizon Wireless specific results:
Verizon Wireless Results: Record Profitability, Strong Customer and Revenue Growth
In third-quarter 2012, Verizon Wireless delivered the highest number of retail postpaid net additions in four years; strong growth in revenues; an increase in smartphone penetration; and the highest segment EBITDA margin on service revenues (non-GAAP) in the company's history, surpassing last quarter's previous high.
Wireless Financial Highlights
- Service revenues in the quarter totaled $16.2 billion, up 7.5 percent year over year. Retail service revenues grew 7.9 percent year over year, to $15.5 billion.
- Total revenues were $19.0 billion, up 7.3 percent year over year.
- Retail postpaid ARPA (average revenue per account) grew 6.5 percent over third-quarter 2011, to $145.42 per month. Following the recent introduction of the Share Everything Plan and as customers continue to add multiple devices to accounts, Verizon Wireless now reports ARPA instead of ARPU since customers can share data among multiple devices.
- Wireless operating income margin was 31.8 percent and segment EBITDA margin on service revenues (non-GAAP) was 50.0 percent, setting record highs for the second consecutive quarter.
Wireless Operational Highlights
- Verizon Wireless added 1.8 million retail net connections in the third quarter, including 1.5 million retail postpaid net connections, the highest in four years. These additions exclude acquisitions and adjustments.
- At the end of the third quarter, the company had 95.9 million retail connections, a 5.7 percent increase year over year, including 90.4 million retail postpaid connections.
- Verizon Wireless had 34.8 million retail postpaid accounts at the end of the third quarter, a 1.0 percent increase over the third quarter 2011, and an average of 2.6 connections per account, up 4.0 percent year over year. At the end of the third quarter, smartphones constituted more than 53 percent of Verizon Wireless' retail postpaid customer phone base, up from 50 percent at the end of second-quarter 2012.

Verizon sells 3.1 million iPhones in Q3 2012
I am tired of laggy phones that won't let you do what you want when you want. I've had three different Android Phones and in 14 days, my wife and I will help with Verizon's number and we will two phones to the 3.1 million. Please tell me that I won't regret it, making the switch from Android to iOS. :):):)
I did exactly what you are going to do. You won't regret it....
Too bad they are CDMA though... I would've switched a while ago if they were GSM and HSPA(+) along with LTE. AT&T works best in my region anyway, the only thing Verizon has over them is LTE but with the iPhone 5, Verizon's (as well as Sprint's) LTE has limitations... Hopefully the seventh generation iPhone will eliminate those shortcomings.

Yoselyn Ortega, the nanny charged with first-degree murder for allegedly killing the two young children she cared for, faced a Manhattan Supreme Court Justice Tuesday morning – and entered a plea of not guilty.
Still in the New York-Presbyterian/Weill Cornell Medical Center bed a month after police said she fatally stabbed Lucia, 6, and Leo Krim, 2, before she turned the knife on herself, Ortega had her plea entered on her behalf by her public-assistance lawyer, Valerie Van Leer-Greenberg.
"My client is profoundly mentally impaired and in need of medical attention," the attorney said, reports the New York Post. The paper also says that during the 10-minute legal proceeding in the hospital Ortega, 50, appeared alert though remained silent and under a blanket.
Judge Lewis Bart Stone ordered Ortega to undergo a psychiatric exam to determine if she is mentally fit to stand trial. He also set the next court date for Jan. 16.
No motivation for what caused the Oct. 25 incident has been explained. "She snapped," her tearful sister, Celia Ortega, said on Oct. 26. "We don't understand what happened to her mind."
Police say that the stabbings took place while the children's mother, Marina Krim, was gone from the family's Upper West Side apartment with a third child, a 3-year-old. When they returned, Marina found Lucia and Leo dead in the bathtub and Ortega on the bathroom floor, with stab wounds to the neck. A kitchen knife was nearby, they said.
The children's father, CNBC digital media executive Kevin Krim, was on an out-town business trip when the killings occured. Police met him at the airport to break the news to him.

HENLAWSON — Often, it seems seniors and others who are in a long-term healthcare facility face days empty of social interaction or physical activities. But Dr. Ted Muilenburg, Director of Therapeutic Recreation and Leisure Studies and West Virginia State University, began a program over 25 years ago that gets nursing home residents up and moving, competing and socializing.
A Geri Olympics event was held Thursday at Trinity Healthcare of Logan. Ten residents of the facility, along with eight people from the Williamson facility, spent the afternoon outside playing golf, basketball, cornhole and other specially adapted sports.
"We are promoting wellness and active living, as well as improving the quality of life for the residents," Dr. Muilenburg said. Dr. Muilenburg sat down with the Williamson Daily News during the event at Logan. He said Geri Olympics started in West Virginia, and has grown to include an event in Prague, the Czech Republic.
"We started with seven nursing homes and 38 participants," Dr. Muilenburg said.
Geri Olympics has since served about 3,500 nursing home residents with 5,000 volunteers as support staff. More than 40 nursing care facilities, assisted living centers and skilled nursing care units in rural hospitals have sponsored teams.
Geri Olympics competitions take place each spring at the South Charleston Recreation Center. Athletes compete in bowling, basketball, marksmanship, golf, horseshoes, candle blowing, an obstacle course, and triathlon and wheelchair races. Traveling teams from as far as Morgantown and Lewisburg compete in the program.
Last August, WVSU was one of only three American Universities invited to present at the at the World Congress on Active Aging in Glasgow, Scotland.
Dr. Muilenburg said a program was being developed that will connect West Virginia seniors with others around this world during the holiday season.
"We are going to use Skype (a computer program that allows users to communicate by voice, video, and instant messaging over the Internet) so our people can talk to others in Prague and in Glasgow. We will share holiday traditions from all around the world."
The event held in Logan was the result of a partnership between WVSU, Logan High School and Trinity Healthcare. Volunteers from the Eagles Nest club from Logan High worked at the event, serving as coaches, cheerleaders and event staff.
"These kids have been great," Dr. Muilenburg said. "They are an amazing group, they truly are the cream of the crop."
He said by traveling and meeting seniors from different countries, he has come to understand that people are more alike than they are different.
"Language is the only barrier," Dr. Muilenburg said. "The attitudes and feelings are the same. The true value of Geri Olympics is in seeing the smiles and excitement of the nursing home residents as they enthusiastically compete, socialize and enjoy being part of their facility's team, in spite of their disabilities and age."
