Fly to the tip with the Fritschi Diamir Eagle Binding.
Thanks to its uniquely designed pivot point, the lightweight Fritschi Diamir Eagle 12 Binding gives you full backcountry touring capabilities with the security and performance of a sturdy downhill binder. The Eagle maintains full release capability in any mode for an additional element of safety, and since the touring-mode release point is located at the heel, you can switch from touring to downhill mode without having to step out of the binder.
- Diamir Gliding Technology uses a moving baseplate to follow your foot's natural roll-off point while you tour, which reduces that weird tip-toe feeling
- Wider baseplate underfoot for enhanced power transmission and stability
- Sliding binder bar underfoot allows your ski to flex more naturally as you add pressure
- Optional Axion tech lets you attach Fritschi's Axion ski crampon (sold separately) for added grip when traversing slopes with sketchy run outs
- A four-level heel elevator flips up easily using the end of your pole and helps you comfortably skin up a variety of slope angles

Tengo los zapatos numero 23.0 , que tamaño necesito?
Me sirven las talla M?
Laura Feasler, Gearhead
Check out the sole length of your boot. For that boot size, the SHORT would work best (BSL 260 - 315mm).
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
These are almost the same bindings as the old diamir titanal. The only difference is that it feels tougher, and the pivot is a little bit closer to the foot, which is supposed to be better for uphill (cannot feel the difference, but I think it is true...). Scout binding is cheaper and is more closer to the old Diamir Titanal. Same weight as ever. Perfect for a ski dedicated to ski touring and ski resort (for a pure ski touring, I guess Lowtechs bindings are better).
BD diamir Eagle review
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
I used these bindings on my Black Diamond Zealot powder skis 3 times over the past week and in 11" of powder at a ski resort this weekend. I skinned up in the morning before the lifts opened. I am pleased to say these are great bindings and I am happy with them. You can easily adjust the binding lock with a ski pole and adjust it to the different incline settings. They feel very smooth and secure. I used them for several hours skiing down intermediates and black diamonds with no problems. When the powder packed down I switched to my alpine skis. I did purchase the wider ski brakes.
Sweet and light bindings
- Familiarity: I've used it once or twice and have initial impressions
The first thing I noticed with these bindings is how light they are. If you compare them with marker bindings these are half the weight, easy. I initially purchased the scout 11 and unhappy with how lightweight they were and thought they might give me problems. The eagle have beefier mounts and all around more durable. I put these on my BD Zealot 110 skis. A wider brake by diamir is required. If mounting on new skis make sure your shop has the "new" jig or the holes wont line up properly. I have yet to try them out in the backcountry so a better review will come.
do these come with the breaks or do the...
do these come with the breaks or do the breaks need to be purchased separately?
They have breaks but they are hard to see in that picture. the brakes are only 95mm.

I am replacing worn Fritschis and will use them for backcountry touring only.My din is at 6.
Which binding do you recommend - the scout or the eagle?
I recommend going with the Scout.You'll be right in the sweet spot of the din range.
Would not trust my life to them...will leave you stranded
Full discloser , I am splitboarder. My BC partner does ski and has had this completely break on him multiple times on the tour in and on the downhill. The plastic cannot take the abuse of moving and flexing in tour mode.
I would agree these aren't the most heavy duty bindings out there and probably wouldn't put a huge amount of stress on them but I think they would get you in and out of most places ok.
These are great!
First time out with these and my new K2 she's back ski. Love them! Easy to use. I could make all the changes I needed with my ski pole.
I assume the brakes are removable...is...
I assume the brakes are removable...is this correct?
Yes, they are held on by 2 screws.
How long will these bindings be on sale...
How long will these bindings be on sale for?
I'll put the bindings on my BD Joule ski...
I'll put the bindings on my BD Joule ski and I will use them sometimes with with touring boots and some other with alpine ski boots. Should I take the Diamir Eagle or Diamir Freeride Pro Binding? What the difference?
freeride pro has a higher DIN and is about 1lb heavier. so it depends on how you ride and where..... eagle for pure touring or freeride pro for everything.
What is the size of the brake on this...
What is the size of the brake on this binding? Or if there are options on the brake size then how would I choose them?
According to BD's website, the Eagle comes with a 95mm brake. You can purchase wider brakes if need be from their site or Backcountry (http://www.backcountry.com/black-diamond-fritschi-diamir-ski-brakes).

Please note that the name of our company is Star Logic. Not Star Logic Software.
The company name can be displayed without capital letters and/or in one or two words.
Thank you
We have no fixed ideas about the number of sides to the star. In fact, the image doesn't need to be a star. Or at least it doesn't need to be an obvious star. We are certainly not looking for anything that is a plain, pointy, geometric five/six sided star. Nothing too geometric either. We'd prefer something that suggests a star. It can be abstract, it can have a hand-drawn scribbled feel to it, it can be a little smudged, at an angle or only part of the star. It could be fluid, curved, have rounded points. I'm not saying it HAS to be any of these things but just trying to get the point across that a normal star shape is not what we are looking for.
That said, we do not want anything too elaborate. The image design should also be very clean, simple and uncluttered. We would like something that is both classic and contemporary. In other words, it has to be a design that will stand the test of time. Anything
contemporary will date quickly but it should be a little contemporary to reflect the fact we are technology company.
The logo should be on one line, the font should be clean and crisp. We don't really want a logo that makes the link between stars and space and space age if that makes sense. In other words, we don't want an outer space theme to either the image or font . We would much prefer a clean modern image and font that is more classic than contemporary.
Just a thought. The logitech logo that is displayed as an example on this site has a sort of fluid shape to the left of it. Something like that in the shap of a star might be nice. This is just an idea of course so please don't take it to mean that it has to be anything like this.
Target Market(s)
All sectors of the catering industry
Must Have:
- Must be a combination of picture and text.
- Image element must be positioned to the left of the text and must be separate from the text.
- Image must be a orange.
- Text should be black (or close to black).
- Star Logic (company name) can be represented as:.
- Star Logic OR
- star logic OR
- starlogic.
- Must be a design that will print well and where the logo will stand on its own without the text.
Nice to Have:
- Star shape with a difference. A star that is distorted in some way or has been created in a less obvious way, maybe at an angle, maybe hand-drawn, maybe looking like a bead of liquid that has formed into the shape of a star, just something that isn't a plane old star.
Should Not Have:
- bog-standard star

text: One thing about New York City, the weather is unsettling. All week I have had problems with the weather and it made me appreciate Los Angeles even more, since I am more of a natural light and outdoor shooter. One minute it's sunny and at the blink of an eye, dark clouds will roll in. It's all about timing. This actually turned out to be pretty effective for this series. We rarely get dramatic skies like this in L.A., but at the same time, we rarely get rain. In this series, the model, Rachel, sports a hat that was purchased for me by fashion and portrait photographer Jeffery Andre, during my first visit to Harlem.

Royal honors Strickland
For state Sen. Tony Strickland, R-Thousand Oaks, it was an opportunity to return to the place where it all began.
Twenty-two years after he last suited up for the Royal High boys' basketball team, the forward for the Los Angeles Lightning added another honor to his career as Royal retired his No. 24 in a ceremony prior to the Lightning's game against the Phoenix Raptors on Friday night.
"It's probably one of the biggest honors," Strickland said. "Next to my kids being born, getting married and winning my first election, this is probably one of the biggest nights of my life."
Strickland played at Royal from 1986 to 1988. His junior year was plagued by wrist and thumb injuries, but Strickland returned the next year and enjoyed a standout season.
Strickland earned a scholarship to Cochise Community College in Arizona, where he averaged 13 points a game. Strickland transferred to Whittier College, where he garnered team MVP and defensive player of the year honors.
"I have many great memories here," Strickland said of his time at Royal. "I've played more in this gym that I can ever remember."
As any other Highlander alumni would probably attest to, the games Strickland will always remember are the cross-town rivalry ones between Royal and Simi Valley.
For the 6-foot-5 Strickland, the rivalry games will always stand out, as the Highlanders had to face the powerful Simi Valley team of Don MacLean and coach Bob Hawking.
"They were probably the two biggest games of my life," Strickland said. "It seemed the whole city was out for those games."
Strickland ventured into politics in 1996, serving as chief of staff to then-assemblyman Tom McClintock. Strickland got his first big break in 1998 when he won election into the California Assembly. Ten years later, he won election to the state senate and is currently running for state controller for a second time. Strickland is also part of the fundraising campaign for state governor hopeful Meg Whitman.
Despite his foray into politics, basketball eventually came back to Strickland. Last year, he joined the Lightning, a team in the International Basketball League.
The team has featured former NBA players Bryon Russell, Fred Vinson and Lamond Murray, as well as former UCLA greats Toby Bailey and Tyus Edney.
Strickland was part of the Lightning team that won the IBL championship last season. The Lightning is 12-2 after Friday's 114-99 win. Strickland scored two points in seven minutes.
Chris Ayer led the Lightning with 30 points and 15 rebounds.
The same teams will meet tonight at 7:30 at Agoura High.
On Friday night, Strickland showed he still had it on the basketball court. With former UCLA coach Jim Harrick in attendance, Strickland dunked twice during warm-ups, entered the game with 3:24 left in the second quarter and converted his first basket on a transition layup late in the first half.
"He's smart, doesn't over-do too much, and knows how to play the game well," Russell said. "Very unselfish, but he needs to take a little more shots."

(David Richard/AP)The Pittsburgh Steelers have been relatively quiet throughout the first week of the NFL free agency period, but they are ready to ramp up their efforts to land new talent and are beginning to line up visits.According to multiple media reports, the Steelers are set to visit with veteran free agent running back Maurice Jones-Drew and have shown interest in linebacker and former Steeler James Harrison.BURKE: Steelers, Falcons among teams with work left to do in free agencyPittsburgh is interested in adding a change of pace back to complement Le'Veon Bell, and Jones-Drew is as good as it gets among the backs currently available. While he may be losing steam, Jones-Drew is a veteran who could provide leadership and still has a little mileage left on his tires.Harrison left the team a year ago after being cut as a cap casualty, but he has always been a fan favorite in Pittsburgh. He recently voiced his interest in returning to the Steelers organization, and the team shares that interest.If Pittsburgh can land Harrison for the veteran minimum, he could be a worthy back up and mentor to last year's first-round pick Jarvis Jones.

Starting a Family Game Night
June 6, 2011 by Stephanie O'Dea
We play a lot of games in our house. This is a photo of the family game shelves in the garage. The board games and puzzles are accessible to the big kids, but out of reach from the baby. I try to maintain a "one or two games in the house at a time" rule, to limit lost or damaged pieces.
Since my kids vary in ages (9, 6, and seventeen months), we have quite a few to choose from– but truly only play a handful on a regular basis. I always thought it would be a good idea to have a way to rent board games. Or a lending library. This might be neat to set up in schools, or through your church or neighborhood— something free the whole family can enjoy that promotes togetherness.
If you're new to playing board/card games with your children, do not expect everyone to have fun and get along perfectly. This is real life. Go with the flow, and try not to be a dictator. Rules are important, but good sportsmanship is a much more valuable lesson to learn. I'm okay with bending rules or getting new cards/scrabble pieces to keep a game moving along and to retain interest, but the family needs to agree. Anything sneaky is cheating, and that's not okay.
It's not about winning or losing. It's how you play the game. — Grantland Rice
words to live by!
Preschool Games (no reading required):
Candyland— this is THE classic preschool board game. This game teaches the "luck of the draw," taking turns, and color recognition. Ages 2.5 or so and up–child needs to be able to not flip the board, and understand taking turns.
Chutes and Ladders— the other classic preschool board game. This game has a spinner, and is a great way to introduce numbers. Try to just enjoy and not turn each play into a math lesson. Let the math come naturally— learning is best when it's not forced, anyway! ages 4 and up.
Memory— this simple matching game is fun for all ages. If you have very young children, start with only 5-10 pairs, then build up. When I taught preschool, I started the little ones right around age 18 months. You'll be surprised at how quickly small guys figure it out!
HyperDash— great indoor game on a rainy day, or outdoor game to let a pack of kids run off some energy. The ages on the box says for ages 7 and up, but I think that recommendation is completely out-of-whack. There are batteries, but this is a fantastic preschool game–I'd say for ages 3 and up.
Connect Four–a large version of tic-tac-toe, Connect Four is appropriate for ages 4 and over, and I still really enjoy playing with the kids. This is a good way to teach planning-ahead and strategy– important skills for more advanced games.
Go Fish, Uno, Old Maid, Crazy Eights (you can usually find these games at your local Dollar Store)– great classic card games to toss in the diaper bag, beach bag, to keep in the glove compartment, etc. You can customize the games for smaller children by limiting the amount of cards in play. Although the Uno deck says for ages 7 and up, I taught a group of 4-year-olds who picked the game up quite quickly.
Jenga —family building game, or a solo game. It's kind of tricky to rebuild the stack for small children, but lots of fun to knock down, or to watch mom or dad "mess up" and knock the tower over.
Young School-Aged children (but still fun for older kids/adults!)
Battleship — beginning strategy game, teaches graph/cooordinates-reading. 2 player game, ages 6 and up (looks like Amazon doesn't carry the regular vs.; you'll need to look locally).
Bananagrams— introduction to scrabble; no scoring needed. Easier to play on the run than scrabble, and feels more organic (although we do play a fair amount of scrabble).
Apples to Apples Jr. — we love this game for building vocabulary, and for just a great family game. Children need to be able to read/sound out words. Ages 6 1/2 or 7 or so and up. GREAT game for a large group, family gathering with all ages, etc.
Boggle — fun, quick family game. Builds vocabulary, promotes reading/word-making. ages 6 and up or so. Fun for adults—Adam and I get quite competitive with Boggle.
Yahtzee — Great math skills game. This game also sets up the framework to play poker, which is a valuable skill, right? (gotta be better than Liar's Dice… at least…)
Older Elementary-aged children to adult
Clue — the new version has added a few more rooms and weapons, and "intrigue" cards. Our family ignores the intrigue cards, and plays the classic way– we just try to solve the crime. If you're playing with teenagers or an adults-only game, you might want to use the intrigue cards. This game is best with 3 or more players.
Blokus — Remember the old Game Boy game, Tetris? (there's probably an app for that now, huh?) Blokus is a boardgame version of Tetris. Players use geometric blocks to build board presence and block players. Teaches spatial awareness, logic, and strategy. The game works the best with 4 players, although you can play with 2 or 3.
Carcassonne My friend, Kelly, from The Spunky Coconut told me about this game, and we've been playing it every couple days ever since. My kids cheat too much when they play on their own— I'd recommend having an adult involved. This is our current favorite, and when/if we outgrow this game, there are add-ons available. Great way to introduce more advanced games like Risk (which we own, but I still haven't figured out!).
Cranium Family — This family game combines classics like pictionary, charades, and name that song in an entertaining (and not too challenging) way. (PS. Amazon is listing this for $57 right now, which is absurd. I have no idea why.)
These are our current favorites, but I'm ALWAYS on the lookout for great new games. If you have any other suggestions for me to keep an eye out for, please let me know!

Watching TV online is nothing new, but watching TV on the iPad feels like a new experience to me. I used to stream the occasional show on my iMac or on my wife's clunky laptop (which runs so hot it doubles as a lap warmer), but the iPad is something else…to borrow Steve Job's favorite word for describing the iPad, watching TV on the iPad feels somewhat "magical". Never in my wildest dreams did I think I would one day be able to walk around my house with a thin, light flat panel TV in my hands watching my favorite TV shows on my own schedule. But that is exactly what I can do with the iPad. The iPad has changed the way I watch TV. Here are my three favorite (and free) iPad TV apps.
ABC Player - ABC is the first major network to the iPad TV party with a fantastic app that has been one of the most downloaded apps on the iPad since its release. ABC recently revealed that over 800,000 people have downloaded the ABC Player app, with those users at least starting to watch 4.2 million shows. Those numbers are pretty impressive considering Apple just announced that 3 million iPads have been sold. That means about 1 in 4 people with an iPad have downloaded the ABC Player app. The ABC Player app makes it easy to view the latest episodes of your favorite ABC shows. Being a huge fan of Modern Family, this was one of the first apps I downloaded when I got my iPad. The ABC Player app allows me to stream the last five episodes of Modern Family for free with limited commercials and the quality is great. DVR? Who needs a DVR?
HGTV To Go - HGTV is one of my wife's favorite networks and one I secretly enjoy watching from time to time myself. I recently downloaded the HGTV app and watched an episode of Selling New York, a show about ridiculously expensive New York properties and the real estate agents who sell them. The amazing thing is I streamed this show without seeing a single commercial. While the variety of content available through the HGTV app is not as deep as the ABC app (there are currently only six shows available compared to thirty six shows on the ABC app), it is still worth downloading if you are a fan of HGTV. The HGTV app will probably never be as content rich as the ABC app because HGTV is a cable network and cable networks get fees from cable companies to carry their programming. If HGTV gave away all their programs for free it would probably ruffle the feathers of the cable companies who pay HGTV to carry their programming.
Yahoo Entertainment - While not really a dedicated TV app, the Yahoo TV Guide within the Yahoo Entertainment app is a wonderful TV guide for those who do not have a built in TV guide on their TV or cable box. Just tell the app where you live and how you watch TV and you get a brilliant TV guide that looks exceptional on the iPad. The TV guide can even be customized to only display what is on your favorite channels. Now if only I could use the app as my remote to change the channel…
Kudos to ABC and HGTV for being the first TV networks on the iPad, and for giving away their content for free. As someone who has worked in the TV industry for over 13 years, I strongly believe the free / advertiser supported model being used by ABC and HGTV is the way to go and the model all TV networks should adopt.
This model works for two reasons. First, by making the app free, more people will download and use it. This means the ads seen within the app are viewed by more people, and you can bet people who own iPads are a very attractive audience to advertisers hoping to sell other products.
Second, TV networks live and die by ratings. The more people who watch their shows, the more they can charge advertisers for ads. It is common practice for TV networks to use a portion of their airtime to promote their programming line up. By creating iPad apps TV networks can easily promote their entire line up thus raising viewership and ratings across multiple shows.
Earlier this week, online TV giant hulu released their highly anticipated iPad / iPhone app. While some have called it the future of television, most have sharply criticized hulu for departing from their free advertiser supported business model. To watch hulu programs on the iPad one must pay $9.99 a month. This would not be such a big deal, but hulu is essentially charging for the same content that is available on other platforms for free and hulu still wants you to watch ads. This has prompted some to accuse the company of being "greedy" and call for a boycott of the hulu mobile app. Some will undoubtedly sign up to enjoy hulu on their ipad, but I do not think hulu will enjoy the same level of success as free advertiser supported TV apps such as the ABC player.
As TV networks see the success of forward thinking ABC and HGTV, more are sure to jump on board with their own iPad TV apps. It is in the TV network's best interest to get their content in front of as many eyes as possible. TV networks have only begun to scratch the surface of what is possible on the iPad as they dip their toes in to test the waters. I am hopeful we will see more free TV on the iPad soon.
What TV networks would you like to see on the iPad?

ASC in Spain
Agnes Scott College offers an intensive summer language program at the University of Oviedo in northern Spain. The Program is open to eligible students who complete one year of college-level Spanish (i.e., SPA 102) by departure date and remain in good academic and residential standing. All participants must also enroll in SPA 206 ("Spanish Culture in Spain") for the spring semester.
Under the guidance of Resident Director and Associate Professor of Spanish Dr. Michael Schlig, participants will begin their experience with an orientation and four-day stay in Madrid before transferring to the city of Oviedo. There, students will live with local families and complete 80 hours of coursework in Spanish language and, if appropriate, history, literature and art.
Upon successful completion of all aspects of the Program, participants will receive six Agnes Scott credits in Spanish. Intermediate coursework satisfies Agnes Scott's foreign language requirement, and credits from more advanced coursework may be applied towards completion of a major or minor in Spanish.
For more information, contact Michael Schlig, associate professor and director of the Oviedo program, or visit the Office of International Education (102B Buttrick Hall).
You can also learn more by visiting the program's dedicated site.

Rep: Actress Kelly Preston "Is Not in Labor"
Celebrity Moms Nov. 14, 2010 AT 4:31PM
False alarm!
Despite Internet reports that John Travolta abruptly left a promotional tour in Australia to be with wife Kelly Preston before she gave birth, a rep for the couple tells UsMagazine.com that "this story is 100 percent false. She is not in labor."
PHOTOS: Adorable A-list babies
This isn't the first time the couple has been forced to clear up rumors surrounding Preston's pregnancy.
PHOTOS: Celebrity mom lifesavers!
"Some of the sites are saying that we are having twins," the actress, 48, wrote on her official site earlier this year. "It's a wonderful idea, but it's untrue. We are just having one."

Last night Lady Gaga performed in Milan, and the fashion capital concert was epic for two reasons. First, Gaga finally met her BFF Giorgio Armani. But more importantly, last night was the night Gaga met Anna Dello Russo.
ADR considers Gaga her muse — she even dressed up like her for Halloween. Anna wore Gareth Pugh for the occasion, and Nicola Formichetti tweeted a pic of the pair. Obviously Anna wrote about the meeting on her blog:
Finally I met my MUSE!
I took a present for LADY GAGA because I knew she hates BARBIE. I gave her a little doll that represent her.
I was impressed by LADY GAGA's performance on stage: SHE's totally a complete ARTIST, SHE's a musician, SHE's a fashion icon, SHE's a singer, SHE's a dancer, SHE's a poet with a VOICE out of the ordinary.
SHE's a new MEDIA of communication.
Yes, she gave Gaga a doll. Check out photos of the night below. Oh, and there's a video.

Hegman Ngoma scored APR's sole goal on the 65th minute of their opening match against Elman of Somalia here in Al Fasher, North Darfur on Wednesday afternoon to walk away with the crucial win that puts them in an advantageous position to qualiy for the quarter finals.
APR will now look for a draw in their next engagement against Vital'o of Burundi on Friday as a minimum requiremennt for them to advance into the quarter finals of this year's Cecafa Kagame Club Championship.
Meanwhile, the 2013 Kagame Cup kicked off in Kadugli, South Kordofan on Tuesday with pomp and colour with over 10 ministers and five Governors present, allaying fears of insecurity and rebel upsurge.
Three Ministers from Central Government in Khartoum and five others from North Dardur and South Kordofan graced the occasion at which traditional dancers and artists staged shows to open the 39th Kagame cup.
The Chairman of Cecafa Leoddegar Tenga and Secretary General Nicholas Musonye were in Kadugli overnight to ensure that the opening ceremony ran smoothly.
And addressing a press conference at the Kadugli Stadium, Tenga praised the countries who committed thmselves to honour the Cecafa and sudan invitation and lamented that some politics were being introduced in Cecafa that may undermine the ideals of the organisation.
Governor of South Gordofan and North Darfur paraded their traditional dancers who included a Hausa Fulani group from North Nigeria and another group from Mali.
Central Africa Republic was also represented.
Governor Haruna Mohamed of South Kordofan Haruna Mohamed said that his state was excited to host its major international competition and urged Cecafa to consider them in future.
He said South Kordofan believed in peace and Kagame cup 2013 was part of that process.
The Governor of North Drafur Ahmed Kibir who led his delegation at the colourful ceremony promised a grand finale on July 1st when his city of Al Fasher host the final match.
Eleven clubs from the region including Electric of Chad arrived in Sudan Monday ready for the showdown.

"Each man has his own vocation; his talent is his call. There is one direction in which all space is open to him."
-- Ralph Waldo Emerson
"There are different kinds of gifts, but the same Spirit distributes them. There are different kinds of service, but the same Lord. There are different kinds of working, but in all of them and in everyone it is the same God at work." -- 1 Corinthians 12:4-6 (NIV)
"For by grace given me I say to every one of you: Do not think of yourself more highly than you ought, but rather think of yourself with sober judgment, in accordance with the faith God has distributed to each of you. For just as each of us has one body with many members, and these members do not all have the same function, so in Christ we, though many, form one body, and each member belongs to all the others. We have different gifts, according to the grace given to each of us. If your gift is prophesying, then prophesy in accordance with your faith; if it is serving, then serve; if it is teaching, then teach; if it is to encourage, then give encouragement; if it is giving, then give generously; if it is to lead, do it diligently; if it is to show mercy, do it cheerfully." -- Romans 12: 3-8 (NIV)

Not only can mice sing, they also may be able to learn vocalizations from hearing other mice. Only humans, songbirds, parrots and hummingbirds have so far been thought capable of vocal learning but a new PLOS One study suggests that "mice have limited versions of the brain and behavior traits for vocal learning that are found in humans for learning speech and in birds for learning song," as Duke University neurobiologist Erich Jarvis says in Science Daily.
The PLOS One study looked at the ultrasonic sounds that male mice make when they are wooing a female and found that the mice's vocalizations contain some features similar to those of birds who are able to learn songs. While it has been assumed that mice lack the brain structures for learning to change the sounds they make and that they produce the sounds innately, Jarvis and his colleagues found that a certain region of a mouse's brain (the motor cortex region) become active when they sing. This region indeed "projects directly to brainstem vocal motor neurons and is necessary for keeping song more stereotyped and on pitch."
Moreover, the scientists found that male mice actually rely on "auditory feedback" to make their songs and that, in contradiction to earlier studies, mice sing in pitch (and you thought all they could do was squeak).
Here are four other animals besides birds and us humans who sing.
2. Toadfish sing (or, to our ears, hum) for the same reasons male mice do, to attract females. While these sounds are "not as complex as what you hear mammals and birds doing," fish are not silent denizens of the waters, Andrew H. Bass, a professor of neurobiology and behavior at Cornell University, notes to MSNBC.
3. Male Mexican free-tailed bats also sing for supersonic songs to court females, researchers from Texas A & M University found. Towards other males, the bats' songs are not welcoming, but of a "stay away" nature.
4. Not every animal that sings does so for, well, sex. Harris' antelope squirrel trills to communicate for safety reasons. The squirrels live in desert environments in the southwestern U.S. in burrows at the entrances of which they are known to pause, stamp their forefeet and vocalize before entering. The small rodents have to constantly be alert as coyotes, hawks, snakes and bobcats prey on them.
5. I still remember excitedly pulling the little plastic recording of humpback whale songs from an issue of National Geographic to listen to. The sounds were nothing I had ever heard and the fact that they came from a creature who lived deep in the ocean made them even more intriguing. Other whales who sing are killer whales or orcas, who use ultrasonic vocalizations and have dialects, and beluga whales, who have a whole repertoire of "chirps, squeaks and clips" and are rightly dubbed "sea canaries."
There's a lot to hear out there in the natural world. All the more reason to keep up the fight against noise pollution and listen for the sounds we haven't yet heard.

amazing,great article,thank you for sharing
Interesting.Thanks for sharing
Thank you for sharing.
I discovered that Guinea Pigs can sometimes sing like song birds. I don't mean there normal sounds I really mean like the sound of a beautiful bird chirping. It happened one morning I thought that there was a bird in my downstairs hall. At about 4am I got up. The noise stopped for a moment as i must have disturbed one of the Guinea Pigs. I don't know which one it was but as I got slowly closer i realised this beautiful sound was coming from one of them and not a bird. It was absolutely amazing and I spoke to a friend who is an expert on these creatures and she tells me it only happens very rarely; so I felt very honoured to hear it.
I've sing my cat sing to birds all the time when he's outside with them. It's pretty cool.
pretty awesome. although who doesn't know about hump back whales?
Thank you.
great article, thanks for sharing :)
Thanks for sharing. Nature noises and voices are the best.
If you read the actual research paper, you will see that they learned about how and when the mice sing by your typical vivesection methods: decapitate some of the singing mice without anesthesia (because the anesthesia might affect the brain tissue being studied); use chemical and surgical methods to destroy various parts of the brain, eyes or ears of live mice (at least they did that with anesthesia). Sure, it's a cute story -- "mice sing" -- but "the devil is in the details," as they say. I'd rather they didn't torture the animals and leave the details of why the mice sing as one of nature's mysteries.

PAWTUCKET – The feet of Jose Iglesias proved to be the difference in Pawtucket's 6-5 win over Rochester Thursday. The shortstop prospect, known more for his defense than causing havoc on the basepaths, swiped two bases in the bottom of the eighth with the score knotted at 5-5. A wild pitch by Rochester's Anthony Slama proved fortuitous as Iglesias scampered home, sliding feet-first.
Iglesias' march around the infield dirt made a winner out of Hideki Okajima (3-0). The Pawtucket reliever was charged with his fourth blown save after allowing the tying run in the top of the eighth. The Red Wings mounted one final rally in the ninth as the potential tying run stood at third with two down. Michael Bowden, however, got ex-PawSox slugger Jeff Bailey to strike out on three pitches, the last offering clocked at 93 miles per hour. Bowden picked up his seventh save.
Pawtucket starter Matt Fox had a hard time protecting a 3-0 lead. The righthander, who earlier in the day learned he was the lone Pawtucket player selected to the International League's All-Star team, pitched three scoreless innings before running into trouble in the fourth, a frame that saw Fox commit a throwing error and allow a run on a wild pitch. Fox, who has bounced between the bullpen and the rotation this season, was touched for four runs — three earned, all of which came in the fourth — in five innings with four strikeouts and three walks.
"He's been a valuable guy who's bounced around," said PawSox manager Arnie Byeler about his all-star. "He's taken the ball and given us what he's got."
Ryan Lavarnway and Hector Luna continued their hot-hitting ways, each blasting home runs as part of multi-hit games. Luna, who finished 2-for-4, has now homered in three straight games. Lavarnway's average now stands at .333 after collecting three hits in five trips. Tommy Hottovy pitched two scoreless innings, lowering his PawSox ERA to 0.87.
His 14 homers suggest otherwise, but Josh Reddick wasn't exactly setting batting records while toiling with the PawSox. The outfielder was prone to lengthy slumps, hence why his batting average stood at .230 when Boston called him up on June 18.
Fast forward two weeks later and Reddick is on a tear. He's 11-for-23 since getting called up and is hitting .444 in 14 games with the Red Sox. Granted the sample size is not huge by any stretch, but Reddick's recent showing – one that probably played some sort of role in Boston designating Mike Cameron for assignment Thursday – begs the following: why couldn't Reddick hit like this while with the PawSox?
Beyeler theorized about said matter. "I think some guys get a little lackadaisical, maybe for a better term. They lose focus down here because it's kind of old hat. That doesn't make it right. It's always nice when guys are tearing it up and you can move them up, but in the same token it doesn't mean that they're going to keep tearing it up [in the bigs]. Older guys who have been up there before and have some sort of idea, hopefully they rise to the occasion and force them to make a little tougher decision to send them back down."
EXTRA BASES: Yamaico Navarro took Cameron's spot on Boston's active roster. "He's worked hard since coming off the D.L. and is finally healthy," said Beyeler about Navarro. "Hopefully he can get a chance to play up there and show everybody what he can do." … The day's other move involved the recall of infielder Tony Thomas from Double-A Portland and Nate Spears landing on the disabled list (retroactive to Wednesday) with a shoulder sprain. This marks the second time Spears has been sidelined, an injured left index finger resulting in him missing time in May. … Thursday was the first game televised on Cox Sports Channel 3 this season. … Jim Martin, who handles the P.A. duties for the Stanley Cup champion Bruins at the "new" Garden, brought his booming talents to McCoy Stadium Thursday. … The four-game set with the Red Wings wraps up Friday night (start time 6:15) with Felix Doubront on the mound for the locals. Following the game will be fireworks.

Ok since alot of fans already know about some of the anime in the lineups, I'll only name a few that might be good to start with this season.
Blazblue - One of the most popular 2d fighter game, who doesn't want it to be an anime?
Unbreakable Machine Doll - if you haven't read the Light Novel or Manga you should start now since it's really good.
Walkure Romanze - From an Eroge but also had a manga it's about girls participating in jousTITZing
Golden Time - If you liked Sakurasou I bet you'll also like this, It's about an Oujo-sama and a commoner col student love affair.
Tokyo Ravens - This one's similar to Ao no Exorcist with crossdressing female heroine but the only difference is that it has more female characters than Ao no Exorcist which is always good if you're a pervert.

If you can accept credit cards as a form of payment it will significantly increase sales for your business. Furthermore, if you can process those payments directly on your smartphone, it can boost sales even more, especially if your business isn't always confined to one physical location. Perhaps you are researching mobile credit card processing because you provide goods or services directly to customers on site or at tradeshows and local marketplaces. Maybe you want to give customers in your store the flexibility to purchase products from sales associates, not just the cashier at the register. Mobile credit card processing services issue iPhone card readers to let you accept credit cards wherever you are. Read more about this topic in our articles about iPhone card readers. The three that emerge as best are Flagship ROAMpay, CreditCardProcessing.com, and Leaders Merchant Services.
Mobile payment processing services can vary greatly in cost and features. We rank on price, hardware compatibility and transaction features to reveal the best service.
Some iPhone card reader services charge a setup fee, while others charge for the card reader itself. Beyond these one-time costs, services also charge ongoing fees such as monthly service fees and per-transaction fees. Charged every time you swipe a credit card, per-transaction fees take into account the base rate and the processing rate. The processing rate depends on how you input credit card information. If you swipe the credit card it is lower risk transaction than keying in the card number, which is why it costs less.
Hardware & Compatibility
Services that process mobile payments usually work with a wide variety of popular mobile devices, not just the iPhone. Make sure the service you choose will equip you with a mobile card swiper. While you can use an app on your phone to process credit cards, an actual reader lowers your per-transaction fees because the card is present as opposed to typing in a number.
Transaction Features
Mobile card readers provide a number of features beyond credit card processing. There are features that should help boost the convenience, intuitiveness and security of processing mobile purchases. Paired with a compatible mobile device, these services allow you to capture customer signatures and accept tips. You can also calculate sales tax and email receipts from your phone to your clients.
All services in our lineup use SSL (Secure Socket Layer) encryption to secure transaction sessions. The app on the mobile phone is password protected so that if you lose the phone, nobody can get into your account. Furthermore, no credit card information is stored on your phone, so your clients don't have to worry about stolen data.
It is convenient and secure to process credit cards directly from your iPhone. Whether you are shopping for your first iPhone card reader or looking for a mobile payment processor compatible with your existing merchant account, our comparisons and reviews of mobile payment processing services might help you to decide.

AMC's 'The Walking Dead' Trailer (Frank Darabont, Gale Anne Hurd)

Re: AMC's 'The Walking Dead' Trailer (Frank Darabont, Gale Anne Hurd)
^^ I think the closest the Romero-verse ever got to an explanation for the zombies was the line "When there's no more room in hell, the dead will walk the Earth." I kind of like the mystery, as it's consistent with the themes of chaos and collapse. Other zombie universes may differ, of course....

I wonder if we'll ever see good old Voodoo Zombies again. Or if anybody even remembers what Zombies were like for centuries before Romero.
I don't think most people do. A few years ago on this board, someone brought up a book or movie featuring a character with the power to create or command zombies. Another poster just laughed at him. "Everyone knows zombies don't have a master or take orders from anyone!"
The first poster wasn't even talking about voodoo, but the point was still made. How quickly we forget.
It's kind of amazing how that one idea has taken over. George Romero should sue everybody who has ever used the cannibalistic plague zombie idea.
They weren't actually called zombies in the original "Night of the Living Dead", were they?
No, nor in
Dawn Of The Dead
. I'm not sure about later movies.

As a business that generated more than £2.8bn of revenue in 2014 in the UK, we've a responsibility not just to our clients and employees but to broader society. Our vision of doing the right thing for our clients, our people and our communities is, at the highest level, about giving something back through sharing our talent.
Our PwC in the Community programme is designed to make the biggest possible impact on behalf of our most significant community stakeholders, using our professional skills and experience in ways that fit with our business aims, which are to:
Our community activities are underpinned by The PwC Foundation.
We focus on developing long-term relationships, where possible, so that we can make a lasting difference. And we offer a portfolio of support which includes financial contributions, pro bono and discounted work and the volunteering time of our people. This mix of activities offers our people a choice of ways to contribute, so that as many of them as possible can benefit from the opportunities available. This year, over 5,500 of our people volunteered – roughly a third of our workforce in the UK.
We've measured our community investments for many years but are looking to understand our impacts, too – find out how we're doing in measuring the benefits of our volunteering programmes.
There are few risks associated with our community involvement, although we're careful to make sure that no activities fall foul of our independence and compliance policies. But community activities provide us with a way of offering interesting experiences to our people, which strengthens our career proposition to potential recruits and existing employees.
The growing interest in measuring the social value of business activity, and in social enterprise as a way of tackling some of the toughest social issues in Britain, means there is increasing crossover between our community work and our work for clients in the public and not-for-profit sector. So our community programmes inform our client work and vice versa. And our community work engenders in our people a better understanding of value beyond financial accounting, as part of their overall awareness of sustainability.
We've set our priorities so that we can make our programmes as relevant and impactful as possible for both our communities and for our business. We're focusing on addressing the challenge of unemployment in young people and disadvantaged groups, through our extensive programmes to support academic attainment and job readiness in schools, and we're increasingly supporting social entrepreneurs to try new ways of tackling pressing issues in our communities across the UK.
For example, our next generation community affairs programme included the creation of a hub for social and environmental change (The Fire Station), the opening of a social enterprise bistro and bar (Brigade) and the launch of our first knowledge exchange (the Centre for Social Impact).
Located in a renovated fire station near our office in London Bridge, the lower floors house the award-winning Brigade bar and bistro, a joint venture social enterprise spanning the private, public and not-for-profit sectors and bringing together the complementary skills of PwC, De Vere Venues, The Homes and Communities Agency and social entrepreneur Simon Boyle to tackle homelessness and unemployment.
The upper floors host our community affairs programmes and are also home to our strategic community partners, the School for Social Entrepreneurs, and Social Enterprise UK. By concentrating skills and resources in this way, we're able to share what we know and learn for the benefit of all the social entrepreneurs we support across the UK.
We now have six Centres for Social Impact in Scotland, Leeds and Birmingham, creating a network of knowledge centres across the UK to engage with social enterprises near our large regional offices. And our PwC Social Entrepreneurs Club now has over 220 members, receiving a range of training and support opportunities.
We've also mapped our volunteering activities to PwC's core competencies, to help staff identify how volunteering can be part of their overall development and encouraged them to consider corporate sustainability as they set their annual objectives. This means we can now quantify the business benefits of our volunteering.Find out more on our pro bono and discounted work, financial contributions and volunteering, or see how we've been recognised for our community work through our awards.

DID 4 unveils its 3 new masters
Ever since India's No. 1 dance reality show 'Dance India Dance' (DID) announced the countrywide auditions for its fourth season, there has been much speculation about what's new on DID this time around.
While Geeta Kapur, Remo D'souza and Terence Lewis will remain an inseparable part of the DID family, it's time now to welcome some young blood onto the panel of judges who will lend a new dimension to 'Dance India Dance' and drive the country towards creating a new dance movement.
He is the man behind some of the most iconic steps you've seen the very Dabangg Salman Khan groove to!
A talent discovered by Salman, Mudassar Khan is the superstar's first choice for choreographing all the racy, popular item numbers across films like Bodyguard, Dabangg 2 and Ready. He is also credited with the current rage 'Party All Night' from the film 'Boss'.
Apart from film choreography, Mudassar also runs his own Hip Hop School and owns the very famous Hip Hop troupe called 'Sharpshooterz'. At just 26 years of age, he is the youngest of the 3 new masters and is fondly called the "Master Blaster" for his spirited, sporty attitude.
Belonging to a family of choreographers, Shruti Merchant has dance in her blood! She began her career assisting sister Vaibhavi Merchant in choreographing films like Dhoom 1, 2 and 3, Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi, Aaja Nach Le, Kal Ho Na Ho and Devdas amongst others.
For the past five years she has toured countries like the US, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Switzerland, U.K, Germany, Italy, France, Spain, Netherlands, Romania, South Africa, China, Singapore and Thailand with the theatrical musical "The Merchants of Bollywood". She recently won a Best Choreographer Award for her debut song 'Thug Le' in 'Ladies Vs. Ricky Behl'.
A powerhouse of energy and an utterly vivacious chatter-box, Shruti warms your heart from the word "Go!". Trained in Bharatnatyam and Kathak, Shruti has a commendable prowess over Indian dance forms.
Producing and directing India's first ever international theatrical musical production - 'Taj Express', Shruti comes with immense knowledge of training dancers.
He started his career in 1996 as an assistant to ace choreographer Farah Khan. Ever since, there has been no looking back for Feroz Khan who is credited with smash hits like Maa Da Laadla from Dostana and Move Your Body from Johnny Gaddaar.
With plum projects like Agneepath, Ra.One, Aisha, Anjaana Anjaani and Fukrey to his choreography credit, Feroz is certainly making waves in the industry.
Being the most experienced judge on the panel, Feroz is a man of few words and shares his pearls of wisdom in his own inimitable style.
Speaking of the new judge trio, Ajay Bhalwankar, Head-Content, Hindi GECs, ZEEL said, "We are proud of our choices for the fresh panel of mentors on Dance India Dance Season 4. Each of them comes with an impressive body of work in the field of dance. But, above all, it is their passion for dance that has landed them these coveted positions on our panel of judges."

The Science of Yoga: The Risks and the Rewardsby William J. Broad
Synopses & Reviews
Publisher Comments:
In this remarkable book about yoga, William Broad, a lifelong practitioner, shows us that uncommon states are integral to a hidden world of risk and reward that lies beneath clouds of myth, superstition, and hype.Five years in the making, The Science of Yoga draws on more than a century of painstaking research to present the first impartial evaluation of a practice thousands of years old. It celebrates whats real and shows whats illusory, describes whats uplifting and beneficial and whats flaky and dangerous — and why. Broad illuminates how yoga can lift moods and inspire creativity. He exposes moves that can cripple and kill. As science often does, this groundbreaking book also reveals mysteries. It presents a fascinating body of evidence that raises questions about whether humans have latent capabilities for entering states of suspended animation and unremitting sexual bliss.The Science of Yoga takes us on a riveting tour of unknown yoga that goes from old archives in Calcutta to the world capitals of medical research, from storied ashrams to spotless laboratories, from sweaty yoga studios with master teachers to the cozy offices of yoga healers. Broad unveils a burgeoning global industry that attracts not only curious scientists but true believers and charismatic hustlers. In the end, he shatters myths, lays out unexpected benefits, and offers a compelling vision of how the ancient practice can be improved.
"Yoga, an ancient practice with millions of modern practitioners, has been the subject of overheated speculation and grandiose claims; it has been dismissed without warrant as well, underappreciated by some who might well benefit from it. The Science of Yoga is a lucid and long overdue account of what scientists have found in their attempts to ferret out the truth about what yoga can and cannot do to heal and make better the body and mind. It is a fascinating and important book." Kay Redfield Jamison, author of An Unquiet Mind and Touched With Fire
"The Science of Yoga offers a riveting, much-needed, clear-eyed look at the yoga mystique. In this investigation, science journalist William Broad pulls back the curtain on the little-discussed world of yoga injuries and risks, while setting the record straight about the numerous potential benefits. Downward dog will never look the same." Daniel Goleman, author of Emotional Intelligence
"If this book doesn't motivate you to practice yoga, nothing will. Broad sheds light on yoga's health benefits and hoaxes, covering everything from headstands to hypertension, the vagus nerve to the YogaButt. Finally I understand why I feel so good when I do yoga. His lively exploration of its evolution from Benares to Beverly Hills flows like any great practice should - with intelligence, good humor and some mindblowing insights." Priscilla Warner, author of Learning to Breathe — My Yearlong Quest to Bring Calm to My Life and co-author of The Faith Club
"After reading The Science of Yoga, I am even more awed by the magnificent complexities of the human body and mind, and astonished that we can exert so much control over this invisible realm through the practice of yoga. Broad has not only thoroughly researched his topic, he has lived it." Alan Lightman, author of Einstein's Dreams
"William Broad is optimistic and hopeful in pointing the way to its future as a major force in preventing and treating disease." Gail Sheehy, author of Passages in Caregiving
"In this compelling work of investigative journalism, William Broad exposes the "scientific" claims made about yoga — from its much-vaunted healing powers to yogasms — to scientific scrutiny. The Science of Yoga is a wonderful read that any yoga practitioner thirsting for authenticity should study carefully before suiting up." David Gordon White, author of Kiss of the Yogini
"Dramatic...a flair for provocation…valuable." Publishers Weekly
The Science of Yoga draws on more than a century of painstaking research to present the first impartial evaluation of a practice thousands of years old. It celebrates whats real and shows whats illusory, describes whats uplifting and beneficial and whats flaky and dangerous — and why. Broad unveils a burgeoning global industry that attracts not only curious scientists but true believers and charismatic hustlers. He shatters myths, lays out unexpected benefits, and offers a compelling vision of how the ancient practice can be improved.
A lead science writer for The New York Times — and lifelong yoga practitioner — examines centuries of history and research to scrutinize the claims made about yoga for health, fitness, emotional well-being, sex, weight loss, healing, and creativity. He reveals what is real and what is illusory, in the process exposing moves that can harm or even kill. A New York Times bestseller.
About the Author
William J. Broad has practiced yoga since 1970. A bestselling author and senior writer at The New York Times, he has won every major award in print and television during more than thirty years as a science journalist. With New York Times colleagues, he has twice won the Pulitzer Prize, as well as an Emmy Award and a DuPont. He is the author or coauthor of seven books, including Germs: Biological Weapons and America's Secret War, a #1 New York Times bestseller.

Reliving 90's rock-A A +A
Wednesday, June 4, 2014
IT WAS a night filled with ROCK music from the 90's. As a fan, I was rocking the night away with the former jocks of NU 107 Davao and all other fans of the 90's rock music. Dubbed as NUbenta, it was a reunion of rock n' roll's finest bands from Davao held at Reggae Bar and Grill on Pryce Road last May 30, 2014.
The special reunion concert was a celebration of the rock music played over the 90's on the airwaves from the iconic FM rock station.
The rock-filled night was not connected in any way to the former FM rock station NU 107 Davao or NU 107 as it was made clear by the organizers.
Local rock bands came to the grand celebration to play for free as it was truly a reunion and a chance for old friends and fans to get together and relive the joy of experiencing awesome rock music altogether.
Davao's finest bands were HH, Deus ex Makina, Little Green Men, Hydrophobia, Blink 666, Kismet, Sisteheads and the infamous Soundtank.
The organizers included Chauvi C. Sevilla, an ex-NU Jock, Cheche Moreno, NU Staff with NU Fans; Pitel Aclon, Maze Estolloso and Allan Raganit.
The Monfort Bat Cave and Conservation Foundation, Inc. (MBCCFI), is the beneficiary for the event. It is an eco-tourism foundation which focuses on outreach and awareness campaign on the inherent value of protecting all Philippine bat species and their habitats due to their importance on the environment.
The Bat sanctuary can be found in a 23-hectare protected area on a property in Barangay Tambo, Babak District, and has drawn both tourists and the Guinness Book of World Records to the island.
NUbenta was a non-profit event held to give the public a chance to relive and enjoy Davao's finest bands playing 90's rock music. Personal donations were gathered to cover the expenses of the reunion, such as the prizes for trivia games, food and drinks for the bands and crew and other gift items were sponsored by Tanduay.
"We will be having this reunion-concert again in six months, though fans would like it to happen earlier than that, we need more time for this kind of event," Chauvi C. Sevilla said.
She added that they will try to promote such an event twice a year here in Davao and reach more rock fans and bands. They promise to make it bigger and better for all the rock enthusiasts. (Elle Harrow)

(Licking) – An inmate at the South Central Correctional Center in Licking has died.
68-year-old Dairl Smith was pronounced dead around 4:20 AM Wednesday morning by staff at the prison. Smith was serving a 30-year sentence for Child Molestation First Degree from Crawford County. He was received in the Missouri Department of Corrections on Sept. 11, 2003.
Prison officials say Smith died of apparent natural causes.
