Hey, I just saw this article (http://www.slate.com/id/2121810/) on Slate.com. It seemed interesting.
Only someone without an understanding of cycling and the TDF would recommend earlier mountain stages to make the race more interesting. If you want more action...

Thanks for the link. There is a link within the article that goes to a detailed page of all the climbs and their respective grade rating. Pretty cool.
Wow. The author of that article is obviously not only NOT a cycling fan, but has likely never watched a race.
The article talked about how the Tour is BORING and explained the reign of Miguel Indurain as this:
....won every Tour de France from 1991 to 1995 without ever attacking. While his opponents raced up the mountains (the fools!), Indurain simply kept them within sight and then slaughtered them in the time trials.
This FOOL has obviously never seen any of Indurain's races.
The author compared last year's tour to this explanation of Indurain...Did the author see Lance in the Mountains? (could have one another if he hadn't let Basso take that one Mountain stage)..
The author then complains that there aren't enough finishes on climbs and says that it doesn't matter because the FRENCH Mountains aren't that steep anyways! This guy has probably never even rode a hill as steep as a parking garage!
This guy must have been late on a deadline or something becuase this article is very biased, incorrect on several accounts and uninformed on almost all accounts.
The only thing I thought was possibly true in this, was that he mentioned that if somebody BEATS Lance this year, it would be better for the sport than if Lance wins, and retires...I think Lance will win, and honestly hope he does too. But I do think that if someone dethrones him, it would hype the sport more.
I don't even know the point of this article. 10 years ago you would NEVER see even a news report on the Tour in North America. Now, it is the most popular sporting event of the summer, and OLN basically covers nothing but the tour for 3 solid weeks.
10years ago most non-cyclists couldn't tell you the name of a cyclist. Now everyone knows who Lance is, and because of that MANY new fans and loads of new enthusiasts and racers have emerged.
Some people...geez.

can't. stop. laughing.Ban the French: Traditionally, French riders have made up much of the field, especially since the organizers generally give "wild card" spots to mediocre French teams. Their numbers are down a bit this year, but there are still gobs of them: 30 of 189 riders. The sad truth is that French cyclists just aren't that good. The last one to win the race was Bernard Hinault, in 1985. Are the French bitter about this? Bien sûr. But they still won't crack the top five this year, and they're taking the spots of racers who might actually do something.
get rid of radios, team cars, team mates, and the bunch finish rule, that would make it interesting !!!Originally Posted by jkoman
They should make the tdf like the RAAM... that'd be interesting too.

Planning on hiring a hotshot kid straight out of college? Here's a checklist for you: Make sure she can tweet or update Facebook while on the clock. Let her get work email on whatever device she wants. Allow her to work from home on her own schedule, even though she's unlikely to really think it makes her more productive. And by the way, an increasing number of your employees don't think they need to be in the office either.
These are all the results of a Cisco survey of 2,800 college students and young professionals worldwide. The survey had a number of questions that make good cocktail party trivia (one-third of students think the Internet is as important as food, air and water) and are rather less impressive the more you consider them (the vast majority, after all, don't believe that for a moment).

Walters Art Museum Uncovers Photo of 19th-Century African-American Sculptor
The Walters Art Museum recently discovered a previously unknown photograph of Mary Edmonia Lewis (1844–1907), the first 19th-century African American sculptor to receive international recognition.
Prior to this discovery, there existed only seven known photographs of Lewis, all taken at the same sitting in Chicago around 1868 by photographer Henry Rocher. This previously unknown image was shot in Rome between 1874-76 by the prestigious Italian studio of Fratelli D'Alessandri, photographer of Pope Pius IX. It sheds new light on the artist and her commitment to using photography to promote her image. The worn 4 x 2.5" photograph was the 19th-century equivalent of a visiting or calling card called a carte-de-visite or cdv.

When Your Child is One of the BulliesMadeline Holler
Sure, any parent dreads finding out that their child has been bullied. But have you ever thought about getting the call that your child is the bully?
Bullying is a big problem in schools, with it's cyber bullying or old school lunch money stealing. Most advice out there is for how to handle the victims. But parents should also know what to do if their child is the one doing the bullying.
iVillage's slideshow of straightforward, non-judgmental advice will help the parent of bullies tackle the issue head-on. The most important part, perhaps, in getting your kid out of the all-powerful bully mode?
Yes, admitting that there's a problem.
There may be signs that your kid is a bully. Either she solves every conflict by hitting or sarcasm or you're getting multiple calls about her involvement in physical situations at daycare or school. All kids tease, but not all kids are cruel. Know the difference. Also, if your child doesn't stop after being told do, there's something else going on.
You should also intervene if you see your child behaving like a bully, but chances are they're keeping it hidden from you. Try to find a way to observe your child without him knowing it. Then get to the bottom of things: what emotions are driving this behavior? Here are 5 excellent tips to help your child resolve conflict.
In addition to punishing bullying behavior and making sure you're not allowing bullying behaviors to work in other situations (e.g. at home with siblings), do the one thing you may dread the most: reach out to your child's victim's parents. Ugh, yes. But chances are they want to work together to get it to stop, not hate you or your child.
Have your kids ever been bullies? What did you do? How did you feel?

Delcan Corp.: Optimas Silver Winner for Business Impact
For its successful employee communications program, Delcan is the winner of the silver Optimas Award for Business Impact.
Realizing that ambitious global growth goals couldn't be reached without a bigger workforce, engineering and design firm Delcan Corp. embarked on a plan to hire quality workers while retaining their best employees. Leaders, however, quickly learned that the talent pool was small, and competition was fierce. Worse, they discovered valued employees were leaving La Palma, California-based Delcan.
The human resources and marketing departments joined forces with Delcan's Principles Leadership Council to stem the exodus while beefing up its workforce. How? Communicate. And then communicate some more. Delcan launched its employee communication program in 2011. Through a variety of clever yet simple initiatives, Delcan executives saw turnover dwindle to 3 percent while new hires jumped by 10 percent through a lucrative employee referral program.
Employees are recognized for their efforts. Business wins are celebrated. Collaboration is a priority. The effort has led to a greater employee connection and loyalty to the organization.
For its successful employee communications program, Delcan is the winner of the silver Optimas Award for Business Impact.

I just moved to Ankeny last summer and I haven't had any car trouble until now. Is there a good mechanic around? I live right by the interstate and I could limp my car into Des Moines as well. I just want to take my car someplace reliable and not get worked over on the price. Thanks guys.

What kind of car is it? What kind of problems is it having?
Denny's Automotive. Three blocks east of Butch's Gas on Lincolnway and Duff and one block south.
Best place I have found in Ankeny is lange tire. I had a blown tire on my car with like 5,000 miles on it, they actually told me it would be cheaper to take it somewhere else. They even arranged my appt there. I went in to pay and he would not take any $$$. I have gone there ever since. They have done all the maintenance on my Maxima. It usually comes in about 1/2 what the dealer charges.
They who can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety, deserve neither liberty nor safety. - Benjamin Franklin 1775
+1 on Lange Tire. I used to manage the Kwik Shop downtown, and they got all my business.
I've takne my Blazer to Cottman's Transmission on Hickman in Des Moines.
They've been very good to me. I know they haven't jobbed me. From what I understand, the city of Clive takes their squad cars there.
What ever happened to truth, justice and the American Way?
I'd be able to tell more if I knew the nature of the problem. Major engine or drivetrain, battery, flat tire, wiring issues, etc...??? Heck, if it was something simple, I'd help you myself(other then towing it off the interstate)
Ankeny Tire and Battery, on Ankeny Blvd, 1 block south of 1st Street. My father-in-law swears by them.
I've actually had bad luck at Lange where they would rather search my car for other thigns to fix than fix what I took the car in for in the first place. I'd take it there before work and all day I would get calls, you need to fix this, this is worn and should be replaced, etc.
When I was at ISU, my car had a problem and I took it to Benson Buick and lets just say they gave me the fencepost with no vaseline. I still got splinters from that shaft job. I will never set foot in that joint again, they saw a college kid coming and charged me up the wazzoo and didn't even fix the problem. Stay away from that place...
I'll second Ankeny Tire and Battery. Always happy with there work. If the car is foreign, there's an English dude in Des Moines who doesn't screw you over. He doesn't charge a penny to hook you up to his diagnostic service. Dealers stick you for a hundred to do that. My wife paid a hundred bucks once to find out her gas cap was loose.
I've had good service from Tim's Amoco on the corner of 1st and Ankeny Blvd in Ankeny. I've had both our cars in there on different occasions. My brother-in-law from Altoona swears by them as well.
More info on the nature of the problem would be helpful.
About a year ago, I had coolant leaking from somewhere in my Dakota. Took it to Stew Hansens and got a work order for a new pump and all the fixings. Quote came out to something like $400. Did a little comparison shopping and decided to take it AAMCO on Hickman by K-Mart. Left it with them for the weekend and gave them instructions based on what Stew's had told me - they didn't look for themselves at this point.
They called me the next day and said it wasn't the pump at all, but rather a bad gasket on the thermostat and that they should just replace that. Bill came out to short of $100 as I recall.
Now they could've put that thing on, fixed the gasket and left the existing themostat and I never would've been any the wiser. Honestly like that, especially in auto repairs, carries alot of weight with me.
Haven't had a problem since.
If you want to stay in town I would strongly suggest Tim's Amoco. When I first moved to town I spent tons of time pricing and found them to be the best value hands down.

Apparently, I'm out of shape.
My cardiovascular capacity is at an all-time low. Running three miles wasn't that big of a deal to me 10 years ago, after all.
My legs still feel like Jello. My arms are sore.
And it's four hours later. After just a two-hour workout.
No. I can't keep up.
I wasn't running a 5K, 10K or even a marathon on Saturday. I was playing rugby.
For the first time.
And nobody laughed at me. That was the beauty of it.
The inclement weather in the area forced a lot of high school events to be postponed on Saturday. I found this out firsthand when I showed up to a bunch of sopping wet - and empty - tennis courts on Saturday morning.
But just adjacent to the Glenwood Springs Community Center tennis courts is the ice rink on the side of the hill. And on the side of the bleachers was a banner that read "Glenwood Defiance Rugby Club."
Defiance had scheduled its rookie camp - a pair of Saturday training sessions for people interested in playing this summer - for Saturday and April 27 at Two Rivers Park. Wet and cold conditions moved it to the confines of what is now the roller-hockey rink, where falling on the smooth concrete might be more appealing than the wet, cold grass for some.
So when they started their camp, Defiance did a great job of introducing people to the sport who had never touched a rugby ball in their life. People like me.
"But you had fun, right?" the Defiance coach, Ian "Spudsy" Skilton, asked me.
Yes, I did.
Although, there were quite a few things I had to tackle before I found out how much I need to get on a treadmill regularly.
There wasn't any contact on this day, which was spent covering the basics of the sport. Things like the technique used to pass the ball, along with simply talking to other players on your team, were the principles that were covered.
We moved into some more advanced stuff a little later, like how to protect yourself from an oncoming opponent. It was during those drills - which entailed running circles around some cones and picking up and passing the ball to teammates - when I realized how out of shape I am.
A tank of oxygen would've been nice to have on hand for the next session, when we played keep away.
Yes. Keep away.
That makes sense, actually. Considering how important the lateral is in rugby and how often players have to depend on their teammates, the game pulled from the playground was the perfect tool to teach the sport. Players have to talk to each other, and come help each other when they're overwhelmed by the other team.
That's what got me.
In the first 5 minutes, I was aggressive, going after every opportunity to get the ball. By the 10th minute, I was coughing up a lung.
Spudsy to team: "Who's tired?"
Me to Spudsy: "ME!!"
Granted, I was able to catch my breath and get back into the game, which had expanded from a 3-on-3 game in a small boxed-off area to a 5-on-5 game in a larger spot by then. I consequently managed to jam my thumb, knock a few bigger guys down and dive for - and win - a few loose balls.
Not bad for an out-of-shape, 165-pound guy. I'm sure I could handle the hard stuff, too - i.e., hitting, scrums, etc. That is, of course, after I restart an exercise regimen that includes more than sitting in front of my computer screen.
"You were doing good," Bob Herrell, the Defiance coach who stepped away from the helm this season in favor of Skilton, said to me.
Obviously, I wasn't the only "rookie" there. There were plenty of others.
Of the 12 people who showed up, I'd guess that half of them had no experience playing rugby at all.
What stood out the most, however, was the camaraderie between the players even during the lunch break. That's one of the things Skilton was big on Saturday.
"It's about brotherhood and family," he said.
And for me, even though I was an out-of-shape guy who was trying this for the first time, it was nice to feel welcome.

Natural Ways To Reduce Childrens' Radiation RiskRebecca Odes
As the world reels from the natural and nuclear disaster in Japan, California is buzzing with anxiety. There is talk about scary things like fallout and acid rain. It's hard to know whether there's really anything to worry about (possibly because I'm not sure anyone knows yet) . But judging from the fact that there's a run on Potassium Iodide pills that's making officials worry about depleting Japan's supply, there is some serious worrying going on .
If I were in California (where in fact I am conveniently scheduled to be in a week and a half) I would be happy to know that there are some natural ways to control the effects of exposure to radiation, many of which are easy to acquire and safe for children. Some of which your children might actually enjoy. Children are more vulnerable to the effects of radiation than adults, just as they're more vulnerable to any toxin. Smaller bodies means smaller organs, which means the same amount of exposure and less ability to process it. Natural remedies for radiation exposure help the body to detox both internally and externally.
I'm not a doctor, or an expert in natural medicine; the info I'm posting was circulated by a natural health practitioner in California who offered up his expertise and encouraged people to pass it on. I'm publishing it here as I got it, but I I can't vouch for his authority—I'd always recommend looking into whatever you plan to use and/or give to your kids. I'm including his name at the end of the list if you want to contact him, but you could probably get similar advice from any number of qualified practitioners.
Here are his recommendations for keeping kids safe from the damaging effects of radiation:
The forecast is radiation will reach west coast of US around March 17. Be proactive and use what is available to us to protect the body and especially the thyroid and heart. Also, for our children who are more susceptible to the effects of radiation.
Suggested recommendations:
Miso Soup with seaweed. This could be kelp, kombu or arame. Arame is the mildest
in taste. We need the iodine to protect thyroid tissue. Use light colored miso paste as it
is less salty. Do not cook miso, at it to hot water and let id dissolve. Soak the seaweed
in warm water for 15 minutes to soften, then add to miso broth. Two bowls daily.
Rad Tox. 1/ dropper, 3x daily, under tongue. Call Apex Energetics: 800-736-4381. Use
authorization code: P2203 if you are not a licensed health practitioner.
Aztec Healing Green Clay. Two tbsp into bathwater each day for two weeks. Bentonite
in the clay will help absorb radioactive elements. Try Whole Foods or Natural Life in
Pleasant Hill.
Radium Bromide 1M. Four pellets, 1x daily for two weeks. Helps detox radioactive elements.
I suggest using all of the recommendations for the next two weeks. After that exposure will drop significantly, providing there are no more nuclear accidents. So stay aware of the situation.

I get so proud when I see a picture of STEPHEN SUTTON, I think what a gem of a selfless human being u became , I also acknowledge the excellect work of what a good parenting can achieve, I knew you not,but I guess the bond of all Archers been giving me the daily urge to write about you.
Though the body you had, became weak, the world could still see the selfless loving and the passion of fire , the spirit of the Archer, though many may not belive in the stars , we are all part of what sparkles above , we are destined to become.
A testament to good parenting , you fulfilled your destiny without ever pitying yourself or becoming selfish, we are all part of the world that changes , we shape shift into different forms and always come back with the spirit within that never dies.
Bravo Stephen, to the Archer even if we can change one person's life , we have achieved a dream ,for since birth we KNOW we are only here for a purpose and
passing through with our ageless infinite Souls in a borrowed temporal body.

They collaborate with the microfinance institution, Soro Yiriwaso, with the aim of better organising their activities at the beginning of the rainy season. They grow millet, rice and groundnut. They are on their sixth loan from the institution.
With this new loan, Sétou, who is sitting in the middle, is planning to buy farm inputs and pay labor costs necessary to maintain around one hectar of rice and groundnut.
The produce is sold once harvested in the town of Massigui to a customer base made up of men and women. She is planning to make an average profit of around 40,000FCFA at the end of the season.
Elles collaborent avec l'institution de microfinance Soro Yiriwaso dans le but de pouvoir mieux organiser leurs activités en début d'hivernage. Les spéculations cultivées sont le mil, le riz et l'arachide. Elles sont à leur cinquième collaboration avec l'institution.
Avec ce nouveau prêt, SÉTOU, assise au milieu, compte acheter les intrants et payer les frais de labour pour entretenir environs 1 hectare riz et d'arachide.
Les productions sont vendues au niveau de la ville de Massigui après les récoltes à une clientèle composée d'hommes et de femmes. Elle compte réaliser un bénéfice moyen de 40.000FCFA environs en fin de campagne.
Additional Information
Important InformationSoro Yiriwaso is a microfinance institution that works primarily in rural and semi-urban areas of Mali to provide underprivileged communities with access to financial services.The organization facilitates access for disadvantaged clients, particularly women, to new resources and services, fostering solidarity and cooperation among its clients. Kiva lenders' funds will enable Soro Yiriwaso to expand its outreach and target even more underserved Malians involved in business and agriculture.
This is a Group Loan
In a group loan, each member of the group receives an individual loan but is part of a larger group of individuals. The group is there to provide support to the members and to provide a system of peer pressure, but groups may or may not be formally bound by a group guarantee. In cases where there is a group guarantee, members of the group are responsible for paying back the loans of their fellow group members in the case of delinquency or default.
Kiva's Field Partners typically feature one borrower from a group. The loan description, sector, and other attributes for a group loan profile are determined by the featured borrower's loan. The other members of the group are not required to use their loans for the same purpose.

Iran has asked India for $1.5 billion in back oil payments under the nuclear deal that provides Tehran some relief from Western sanctions, Indian sources with direct knowledge of the matter said on Thursday.
If the payments are approved, this could make India the third of Iran's major buyers, after Japan and South Korea, to start processing frozen back payments.
The payments are contingent on Iran holding to its agreement to start curbing its nuclear programme.
Indian refiners are holding about $3 billion in payments due to the West Asian crude producer, one of the sources said. Other funds owed to Tehran are held in a rupee-denominated account at India's UCO Bank.
Under the November 24 pact with six major powers, Iran won access to $4.2 billion of its oil revenues frozen abroad. The fund will be paid out in eight money transfers on a schedule that started with a $550 million payment by Japan on February 1. South Korea is set to make two payments in March totalling $1 billion, banking sources said on Wednesday, and the next scheduled tranche of oil funds would come on April 10.
"Of the $4.2 billion, they have sought $1.5 billion from us," one of the sources said. Tehran has already submitted requests to the US for funds from each of its four major Asian buyers Japan, South Korea, India and China, this source said.
The sources, who requested anonymity because of the sensitivity of the issue, said they did not yet know the timing and the banking mechanism to be used. But they said the payments will be from the dollar funds held by refiners.
Tehran is allowed to receive $450 million on March 1 if it satisfies targets set down in the November deal, according to the payment schedule. It can then receive two further tranches of $550 million on March 7 and April 10 without having to meet further conditions.
Payments from April 15 would be contingent on confirmation that Iran has kept to its commitment to dilute all of its 20% enriched uranium to no more than 5% enriched uranium.

ST. PAUL, Minn. -- St. Anthony Residence in St. Paul is not a treatment center and it's nothing like going to detox. In fact, many of the men who live at St. Anthony are drinking themselves to death.
The St. Paul apartment building is a so-called wet house, a place for chronic alcoholics, many in the final stages of their addiction, to live out the rest of their lives, drunk if they choose to.
The facility is run by Catholic Charities, an organization that offers many programs to help the metro's homeless population. The folks at Catholic Charities call St. Anthony Residence 'supportive housing.'
The men are not allowed to drink inside the building, but can bring their alcohol out to a patio area behind the building.
Bill Hockenberger manages St. Anthony Residence for Catholic Charities, a place he has turned into a home for these lifelong drinkers.
"By the time they move in, they pretty much have had their last fight," says Hockenberger.
Most of the residents at St. Anthony residence can't and won't kick their addiction. They've been through treatment, detox, and even prison, but nothing has worked to make them sober.
At St. Anthony Residence, they get to drink all they want, but must still follow Hockenberger's rules: check alcohol in at the front desk, keep the place clean, and be respectful.
"I feel when they walk through the doors here, this is their house and need to feel safe," says Hockenberger.
Tracy Berglund is director of housing and emergency services for Catholic Charities, which runs many programs for the homeless. And most of these men, before they came here, were homeless.
"We are meeting people where they are at, and for late stage alcoholics it is often in a very dark place," says Berglund. "It's a real problem for the community when there are people inebriated on the streets or panhandling."
And it's expensive. Berglund says a homeless alcoholic might cost the public a million dollars over his or her lifetime.
Among the costs include the following: a hundred bucks for each night in jail, $200 for every trip to detox, close to a $1000 for an emergency room visit.
It costs $48 per day to house these men at St. Anthony. At $48 a day, the cost is about a million dollars a year to house 60 residents at St. Anthony. There are four so-called wethouses in Minnesota and two of them are run by Catholic Charities.
But you're still paying for some of it.
The city of St. Paul owns the building that houses St. Anthony Residence. Ramsey County pays operating expenses and Catholic Charities provides services for the residents.
The organization runs another facility, Glenwood House in Minneapolis, with a similar public-private funding structure.
"It is designed to keep the residents and clients here off of the streets, off of public places, out of your front yard," says Hockenberger.
But is this the right approach? Allowing chronic alcoholics what is, in part, a place to drink is a difficult idea for many.
William Moyers is president of foundation relations for Hazelden treatment centers. He has described wet houses as places of death and despair, and to some extent they are. But even Moyers says they may have a role to play.
"This is not a wet or dry issue...Addiction is a chronic illness and sadly not everybody makes it," says Moyers. "At the end of the day what really counts is that the addict or alcoholic is treated with dignity and respect..Is it enabling? I don't know if it is enabling as much as giving up."
"I've never given up on any of the residents here because they minute you do, they'll turn around and fool you," says Hockenberger.
Despite the extreme addiction, each St. Anthony resident can get treatment if he wants. In fact, three to five percent of St. Anthony residents eventually get sober.
That's what Len Schlicht hopes for. He's an alcoholic who used to live in homeless shelters. Today, instead of looking for a place to sleep, he spends a good part of the day online, looking for education opportunities and jobs.
"I don't plan on dying here, but to each his own. For some people who absolutely cannot make it out in society, this place is a literal God send to them because they wouldn't make it. It would be a matter of life and death for some of the residents here," says Schlicht.
Perhaps what's most striking at St. Anthony house are the many moments of quiet. All of the men don't drink all of the time. They often recall the jobs they once had, the families they don't see enough and life before addiction.
And guys like Bill Hockenberger say even these men, who seem to have lost everything to alcoholism, deserve dignity and compassion. Some may die at St. Anthony Residence, but they go there to live.
"The clients here, the residents, they didn't ask to be born this way - this is a picture of life's other side," says Bill.

I don't know if anybody's noticed this but there are some unrecognized tracks on the Canadian Help! LP. Can someone get these on the internet?
And if they are, links?
12 November 2009
I'll assume you mean in the discography section on this site...
Are you refering to the instrumental tracks? Because 1) there's nothing on them for US version and probably nothing the other versions as well - I haven't checked them yet and 2) Joe's only one guy, I'm sure he'll get to writting those articles when he can. The main article on HELP! does explain those tracks somewhat here.
If you meant something else, let us know.
And welcome to the site!
Thanks Skye.
As I mentioned in the Help! article, you can get those tracks on the Capitol Albums Vol 2 box set, or on the old vinyl. The box set is worth a purchase if you see it, though I don't know if they make them any more. All the Capitol albums contained a range of different mixes from those on the UK versions, so it's interesting to hear the differences.
I didn't write about the Ken Thorne compositions in the /songs/ section because they weren't core Beatles songs (some are based on Lennon-McCartney compositions), although I probably should for the sake of completion. I'll probably put up a sample of the James Bond intro to Help! - under UK law we're allowed to stream up to 30 seconds of any song online without paying for rights clearance, so if I get time I'll clip it and add it to the relevant pages. It's interesting to hear.
I need to do more international discographies. I have all the raw data for loads of countries, but it's exceptionally boring formatting it all, and adding cover artwork where I can find it. The results look good though.

New Worlds, Yellowstone, and Life in the Universe
Presenter: Prof. Geoff Marcy
Tuesday, December 11, 2007
7:30 pm
Lockheed Martin IMAX Theater
Museum in Washington, DC
Star Trek and Star Wars would have us believe that the universe is teeming with habitable planets and advanced species. In reality, Earth-like planets and extraterrestrial life have proved elusive. Was science fiction wrong? What makes a world hospitable for life? Telescopes have been hunting for such planets for decades, but have only recently started finding some candidates. In the next two years, a generation of improved telescopes will start looking. What will they find? Will new discoveries spark new speculation about alien life?
Geoff Marcy is a professor of astronomy and the director of the Center for Integrative Planetary Science at the University of California, Berkeley. His team discovered the majority of the 250 known planets around other stars.

We can all benefit from reading inspiring stories, listening to inspiring speakers, participating in and contributing to inspiring events. Being inspired uplifts the spirit, increases energy and motivation, and even improves quality of life!
Some quick ideas
- Get up early and watch the sun rise. Quiet your mind as you take in its beauty.
- Go to an art gallery or museum.
- Connect with nature. Go for a walk or visit a national park to enjoy the sights, smells and sensations around you.
- Learn something new. Take a class or read a tutorial and give something different a try!
- Find a quiet room and make a pretend award acceptance speech, complete with grand sweeping gestures. (No one need ever know!)
- Listen to some music from your formative years. Remember how it spoke to you.
- Read some inspiring articles, or watch some inspiring videos.
Below is a collection of stories, speakers and other things to look at that you may find inspiring. Please help add to our collection by making some suggestions.
Men's Anti-Violence Council Blog: A series of relevant, inspiring and entertaining articles.
The Curiosity Blog: Discovery updates regularly with interesting, surprising or fun topics to inspire curiosity about our world.
View a video of interviews from U.S. Senator Scott Brown, CNN's Don Lemon and 1in6.org
TED: Ideas worth spreading
TED is a small nonprofit devoted to Ideas Worth Spreading. It started out (in 1984) as a conference bringing together three worlds: Technology, Entertainment, Design. Since then its scope has become ever broader. TED believe passionately in the power of ideas to change attitudes, lives and, ultimately, the world. Following are a few videos that may inspire you:
The opportunity of adversity
The thesaurus might equate "disabled" with synonyms like "useless" and "mutilated," but ground-breaking runner Aimee Mullins is out to redefine the word. Defying these associations, she shows how adversity – in her case, being born without shinbones – actually opens the door for human potential.
Why are we happy?
Dan Gilbert, author of Stumbling on Happiness, challenges the idea that we'll be miserable if we don't get what we want. Our "psychological immune system" lets us feel truly happy even when things don't go as planned.
On true success
With profound simplicity, Coach John Wooden redefines success and urges us all to pursue the best in ourselves. In this inspiring talk he shares the advice he gave his players at UCLA, quotes poetry and remembers his father's wisdom.
What adults can learn from kids
Child prodigy Adora Svitak says the world needs "childish" thinking: bold ideas, wild creativity and especially optimism. Kids' big dreams deserve high expectations, she says, starting with grownups' willingness to learn from children as much as to teach.

Done taking 13 exams in the past 3 weeks and a half, now I get a a day to mess around with the aquariums. Then back to studying
Here is a picture of the clam, it has color up quite a bit. It even has started to get an emerald color around the edges.
I'm really thinking in what direction I want to take this pico, I really want to create a really good looking SPS pico. Will see...
Is clam doing okay in a pico? I just set up my 3 gal Picotope, want to add a clam in a later time, but considering if the tank is too small to keep a clam.

what kind of micro food? what did you use? i fed some mysis today and it seemed to be happy.
phytofeast, rotifeast, oyster feast. You would need to do daily water changes. It was a hard animal to keep, and if not feed it will decline rapidly in a month or two.

The clam is doing great, I have moved it to the nano. The clam seemed to be doing great in the pico, I was doing automatic water changes every day.
Anyone interested in buying pico jars made by me...lol. Err I really don't want to sell this tank.

Hey pj I was just wondering if you had any tips or tricks for me about keeping a sea cucumber. If I remember correctly you had a yellow one in your 3 is that right? I want one in my 30 once its running and have never kept a sea cucmber.
The yellow sea cucumber always seemed very reclusive and would usually stay at the opening of caves. They were always bothered by larger crustaceans and if weak they would get eaten. Always pick one that is large, I have seen healthy ones be in the range of 2-3 inches. Flow seems to be key as well as a variety of micro food. Luckily they move around to find the ideal place.

Hello, I wanted to ask if someone can clarify under pj86's post in the equipment part and categorized under Miscellaneous it says this: 4 Tom aqualifter, 1 small airpump, wine chiller (auto feeder and water change & ATO)
Little confused....

Im glad this thread is still inspiring saltwater hobbyist. The 2 aqualifters were use for water changes: 1 handled the syphoning, 1 handled the saltwater, airpump was for the automatic feeder, and the wine chiller was to keep the food cold. The other 2 aqualifters were used for top off and surface skimming.

AP Source: Harvin requests trade from Vikings
EDEN PRAIRIE, Minn. Star receiver Percy Harvin wants out of Minnesota.
One day after Harvin expressed frustration over several unspecified issues with the Vikings, a person with knowledge of the situation told The Associated Press on Wednesday that Harvin had requested a trade. The person spoke on condition of anonymity because of the sensitivity of the issue.
Harvin voiced frustration with the Vikings on Tuesday at the first day of mandatory minicamp. He did not say what his specific issues were with the team, only saying that he was unhappy with several things and wanted them addressed before training camp begins at the end of July.
"I just put it this way: There's a lot of different things that have to be sorted out," Harvin said Tuesday. "Just haven't been really happy lately. We've got a couple of things to work on. I'm here in the classroom. We'll go from there."
Harvin attended the team's morning practice Wednesday, leaving the field before reporters could ask any questions. Running back Adrian Peterson said he hadn't spoken to his friend about it but planned to have a conversation to try to help smooth things over.
"I wouldn't say it's distracting. It's more bothering. It's like, we definitely don't want to lose this guy. ... I'm sure the organization will do what it has to do to keep this guy around," Peterson said. "If it was me, I would make sure that we kept him around. But we'll see."
Given Harvin's status as a 24-year-old rising star and one of the team's top players, the request is unlikely to be granted. Coach Leslie Frazier said Tuesday that he was confident any issues Harvin had could be resolved well before training camp.
"I really feel like when he and I sit down and talk in depth," Frazier said, "whatever is in his heart or on his mind, we'll get through it."
Harvin, who is still recovering from offseason shoulder surgery, worked out with the team during an afternoon practice Tuesday and said later in the day that he did not want to be a distraction and only wanted to talk about football issues.
He has two years left on his rookie contract, but it was not immediately clear how much that had to do with his displeasure, if at all. The Vikings are coming off of consecutive last-place finishes in the NFC North and have entered a rebuilding phase centered on Harvin, Peterson, who is recovering from a torn ACL, and second-year quarterback Christian Ponder.
Harvin was the team's first-round draft pick in 2009 and has quickly emerged as the Vikings' most versatile and dynamic player. He is the team's only proven commodity at receiver heading into his fourth season and is coming off a year in which he posted career highs in receptions (87), yards (967) and total touchdowns (9).
Harvin has shown the ability to play in the slot as an inside receiver and on the perimeter as a deep threat and has become one of the most dangerous kick returners in the league. He also rushed for 345 yards last season, helping to spell Peterson in the run game.
Migraine headaches and a few other bumps and bruises from Harvin's physical and punishing style of play led to some concerns about his durability, especially in his first two seasons. But Harvin played in all 16 games last year while fighting a painful rib injury and became a respected veteran in the locker room.
Requesting a trade now would be a curious move if he does want a new contract, with the normal protocol for similar situations being to hold out from training camp to spur negotiations.

Funding Unsuccessful
This project's funding goal was not reached on June 6, 2012.
The day I met Mohammed Atta, what he told me, and how my life effected our world.
This project's funding goal was not reached on June 6, 2012.
This book will be called: Antipathy
We all remember the United and American Airline planes being crashed into the World Trade Center buildings on the morning of September 11, 2001, and soon thereafter people running desperately through the streets of downtown Manhattan trying to escape the inescapable plum rapidly moving to engulf them. We also remember the destruction in the aftermath of the attack...buildings obliterated ...others barely standing, people covered with smoke and ash, scared, crying, bewildered, not knowing what to do or where to go; and the accompanying stories of how Mr. Big Boss, Mrs. Female Worker, Mr. Manager, and Mr. Nobody Important had worked on the whatever floor for ABC Corp for x number of years, and left behind a spouse, and young children - some even unborn and who would never know their parent. I remember these stories and images clearly. At that time I was a young stock broker working for a discount brokerage I will call Low Class Securities. My office was located right across the Hudson River in New Jersey. We watched the whole ordeal in bemusement; and actually had offices in one of the trade center buildings and others on Wall Street just a few blocks away from the World Trade Center. Some of my colleagues knew people who worked in the trade center buildings. Years earlier I often had lunch between the trade center buildings with coworkers when I worked in the Wall Street District, and had even applied for a job with a well known stock brokerage on one of the floors that was hit! I'd be dead right now, if I didn't walk out before the job interview for reasons I will explain in the book.
But what I'd like to impress upon you is that the attack may have been avoided. Two years before the attack, in September of 1999 Mohammed Atta became one of my clients at Low Class Securities. He was just someone who walked off the street one day and wanted to open a stock brokerage account. He was a serious man, and at 6'2, approximately 220lbs of muscle and deep middle eastern voice, - he was a very imposing figure, with a commanding presence. You did not want to mess with him. To me he was the image of a brown skin Incredible Hulk.
As a stock broker my job required that "I know my customer". It is an industry rule encouraging stock brokers to know what their clients do for a living, how much they earn, other sources of income, their experience in investing, etc. all in an effort to know what investments may or may not make suitable recommendations. And in my effort to do my job, I got to know Mr. Atta. That meant attempting to bond. This book will reveal how I did that, what I learned, and what I did with the information. Ultimately this book will shock you, and explain how capitalism and our nations ongoing societal problems played a role in the attack. If my book is successful, the reader will be forced to reflect and understand that the roots of all evil is fear, greed, jealousy, and worse - Antipathy.
Proceeds will be used to market and publish the book. Help my story get published.
I ask that you make your pledge now.
Have a question? If the info above doesn't help, you can ask the project creator directly.

I generally just try to ?feel? for the application of the answer to my question ignoring this completely.
So if I get an answer to a query I try to feel whether it is giving an ?inner world /spiritual? response or whether is answering in a more practical vein.
I would love to know how others deal with the problem of how to find the level of the answer.

Rochester Philharmonic Orchestra
Founded in 1922 by George Eastman, the Rochester Philharmonic Orchestra (RPO) is dedicated to inspiring, educating, and engaging the Greater Rochester community through the art of music.
Now in its 90th season the RPO presents more than 130 concerts a year. The orchestra engages the public through ticketed events, education programs, and community concerts in schools, churches, parks, and community centers throughout the region. The RPO musicians strive to have a special level of connection with the community at large.
"Many people may not know that, in addition to the Pops and Philharmonics concerts we present in Kodak Hall at Eastman Theatre, the RPO reaches more than 14,000 schoolchildren each season through its education concerts and tens of thousands more through our numerous community concerts and programs," explained marketing coordinator Katy Judd.
The RPO feels they reach their core audience efficiently through WXXI underwriting. Judd commented that, "We are so glad to have the classical music programming of WXXI-FM here in Rochester and are proud to support it through our underwriting. For those considering a partnership the suggestion I would make would be to develop at least a year-long plan, so that WXXI listeners or viewers become familiar with you. "
According to Judd the partnership of the RPO and WXXI stemmed from the fact that many RPO concertgoers are avid listeners of WXXI's radio stations -- as are many RPO orchestra members and staff! The RPO staff's favorite programming includes the Exploring Music (Mon-Fri, 7-8p), New York Philharmonic (Sun, 3-5p), and Chicago Symphony (Thurs, 8-10p) broadcasts on Classical 91.5. "Local Classical hosts — Brenda, Julia, and Mona — are great," Judd added, "and All Things Considered on AM 1370 (Mon-Fri, 4-6:30p) is also a favorite."

Phylogenetic trees depict the evolutionary relationships among organisms, and we incorporate phylogenetic tree-thinking into all of our research.
Active areas of research include:
1. Studying the performance of phylogenetic methods using simulated data.
2. Estimating phylogenetic trees using next-generation sequence data.
3. Applied phylogenetics in systematics and evolutionary biology research.
Phylogenetic Methods
We conduct computer simulations aimed at investigating the performance of phylogenetic inference methods. The goal is to identify the demographic situations that lead certain methods to outperform others, and to determine when the addition of data can increase accuracy. Current computer simulations examine the impacts of migration on species tree inference, and the performance of species tree estimation under the most difficult conditions. Migration can impact population size and divergence time estimates dramatically, even in situations in which only a small proportion of loci in the genome are experiencing migration.
Phylogenetics with Next-Generation Sequencing
We are collecting new comparative genomics data for non-model organisms using next-generation sequencing technology. Our goal is to assemble data matrices containing large numbers of loci without the need for developing any locus-specific PCR primers. Adopting new sequencing technologies into our research allows us to shift a heavy time- commitment away from labor-intensive data collection towards more illuminating aspects of the research, including bioinformatics, data analysis, and hypothesis testing.
Applied Phylogenetics
We have several on-going research projects exploring the phylogenetic relationships of lizards, which have resulted in publications across a number of disciplines including systematics, biogeography, physiological ecology, life history evolution, and phylogenetic comparative methods. We are investigating the mechanisms that have fostered lineage formation in the iguanian lizard genus Sceloporus, a diverse clade containing 90+ species with a broad distribution across North America that has emerged from several periods of rapid evolutionary diversification. We are also exploring the diversification history of African Agama lizards, and North American horned lizards (Phrynosoma).

Item # FIZ000V
Don't worry though, we have a lot more Men's Road Bike Saddles in stock than that.View Similar Products
Fi'zi:k Aliante Gamma XM Saddle $0.00
When you set out to buy a new saddle, you'd like to be able to demo each and every one and put it through the wringer. But, that's not practical. So what do you do? You rely on word of mouth and friend's recommendations. The Fi'zi:k Aliante Gamma XM Saddle's praises are being sung loudly.
The Aliante is constructed around Fi'zi:k's patented Twin Flex shell which helps the saddle achieve the perfect balance between lightness and comfort. Twin Flex is a 35 gram multidirectional carbon fiber shell that surrounds a 15 gram bi-directional carbon and Kevlar woven interior "hammock" resulting in a supremely comfortable saddle design that you sit 'in' as opposed to 'on.' Each Fi'zi:k saddle is designed around its Spine Concept fit. The Aliante is designed for the Bull — the rider who rotates their pelvis forward which increases pressure on genitalia. The pocket in the Aliante cushions the soft tissue, while the paddles support the sit bones.
Designed primarily for cross country mountain biking, the rails of the Aliante are K:ium, which, while slightly heavier, is stronger and more durable than carbon. The K:ium rails (pronounced "Koom," rhymes with zoom) offer a better ride than titanium rails. They're 8% lighter, have greater strength to weight ratio, and absorb more trail chatter. Adding silicone to the alloy provides vibration dampening. There is also some chromium content. It makes the rails nice and shiny and increases corrosion resistance, which helps with overall durability.
The Fi'zi:k Aliante Gamma XM saddle weighs 259grams and is available in one size in the color Black/black cordura. It features ICS compatability—Fi'zi:k taillights and saddle bags snap directly to the saddle rails so you don't have to fuss with rubber clamps or cumbersome straps.

Best mountain saddle I've found
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
I've been riding this for 2 seasons now and it is without a doubt the most comfortable saddle I've put on any bike. I pedal mostly seated and I don't feel it after a long ride, even on the rockier trails. I would recommend against the white model , which they currently don't carry. It was only white for about a month, but honestly I am more worried about utility than looks.
This saddle will be on any MTB I own.

Celebrity Apprentice: The Two Finalists Are Revealed!
May 16, 2010 09:00 PM by Lisa Princ
Donald Trump goes on a firing spree tonight on an all new Celebrity Apprentice on NBC. After one contestant is fired immediately, the four remaining contestants will be grilled by Joan Rivers and Bill Rancic, season one winner of The Apprentice, and more recently the star of the hit E! reality series Giulana & Bill. How will the celebrities hold up to these two tough critics and who will make into the finale? Keep reading for those details and those of the final task which also starts tonight!
Donald Trump's first order of business tonight on Celebrity Apprentice on NBC after firing Cyndi, was to fire yet another celebrity, just as the celebrities were having a celebration toast for making it this far. Mr. Trump went down the line asking why each celebrity should not be fired and just when I thought our beloved Donald Trump was going to fire Curtis, instead he asked Curtis why he thought Maria should be fired, Maria once again opened her big mouth and made a comment that even disgusted Mr. Trump about Curtis's bathroom habits, thus getting Maria fired right off the bat!
So that left Sharon, Bret, Curtis and Holly to be interviewed by both Joan Rivers and Bill Rancic, season one winner of The Apprentice, and star of the hit E! reality series Giulana & Bill. Mr. Trump would take to heart what they had to say about each contestant and fire two more celebrities on Celebrity Apprentice on NBC. Both Joan and Bill were not crazy about Curtis, and one would go one way while the other the opposite on the three other contestants. With that said, Donald Trump fired Curtis and sent him on his way. The next would be harder as he again asked the celebrities why they should stay and Sharon broke out in tears claiming she "didn't know if she would want to beat Holly". I think that was enough to influence Donald Trump's decision as Sharon was the next one to get fired.
That means our two finalists for Celebrity Apprentice on NBC are Holly Robinson and Bret Michaels! They spent the night celebrating as the next morning their final task would begin. The next morning Donald Trump arrived with two Execs from Snapple to give the celebrities their final task: create and successfully market a new snapple flavor. This would include a commercial, creating a custom design, trying out samples with the public among other things. Donald Trump sent them on their way and advised that they would have some help in the form of team members.
Bret was surprised as he was greeted by Summer Sanders and Daryl Strawberry for his team members. Holly, who was hoping for Summer, got Maria and Curtis instead. Just when I thought we had seen the last of Maria, there she was again. First order of business for both teams was choosing the flavor combination they wanted and negotiating with the other team as each team could not have any of the same flavors. Despite the fact that both teams wanted the passion fruit flavor, Bret gave in as Holly sent Curtis in to negotiate for her and Curtis confused Bret a bit. So while Holly's team was working on a passion/strawberry/basil mix, Bret's team was working on a "Trop-a-Rocka" or tropical fruit with vanilla and some spice.
Celebrity Apprentice on NBC continued with both teams starting to shoot their commercials. Bret, being Bret had to hire a bunch of girls to perform in his commercial, while Holly had a bunch of comics in hers. Just as the clock was running out for the episode, Bret was having issues getting the equipment that he needed and he was starting to panic. But you'll have to wait until next week to see how this turns out and who will be named the winner as it ended there tonight for us.
Be sure to tune in next week at 9 pm EST for a brand new episode of Celebrity Apprentice on NBC as Donald Trump will name a winner of this season in the live finale!
Who do you think is going to take the season 3 crown? Come join us on the Reality TV Magazine message boards and share your opinions and thoughts on the competitors and the show!

By Raynard Jackson
During a BBC radio address titled, "The Russian Enigma," on October 1, 1939, former British Prime Minister, Winston Churchill said, "I cannot forecast to you the action of Russia. It is a riddle, wrapped in a mystery inside an enigma; but perhaps there is a key. That key is Russian national interest."
The simple meaning behind Churchill's statement is--something that is a puzzle or something difficult to solve. Churchill's statement sums up quite concisely, the relationship that Blacks have with Obama—an enigma.

WASHINGTON (FinalCall.com) - Even as Western European leaders boast of their roles in the overthrow of the Libyan government of Col. Muammar Gadhafi, African leaders who were at first silent about the plot have begun voicing their opposition to the campaign. The African Union (AU) has withheld its recognition of the ruling National Transitional Council (NTC), and a group of 200 concerned African leaders have issued a statement warning about Africa being re-colonized by NATO's European powers.

KIGALI, Jul 26 (IPS) - Rwanda is the first country in the world where women outnumber men in parliament, with women occupying 45 out of 80 seats. However, despite this, experts say that the country still needs a gender equality perspective on how national resources and programmes are implemented.
"The move will help ensure government spending addresses the needs of women and men equitably," said Susan Mutoni, referring to the situation in Rwanda. Mutoni is the project coordinator of gender responsive budgeting in Rwanda's ministry of finance and economic planning.

Thursday, 16 Dec 2010
A comparative analysis of Nigerian legislators' earnings and those of other countries reveals that the former can pay many of their counterparts in other countries and still remain very rich, Nnaemeka Meribe and Gbenga Adeniji write.
An Indian lawmaker needs to work for at least 49 years to earn the annual salary of a Nigerian senator. A lawmaker in India earns $23,988 (N3.7m) per annum while a Nigerian senator earns $1.2m (N182m) per annum. A monthly breakdown shows that while an Indian lawmaker earns $1,999 (N305, 058) per month, a Nigerian senator earns $ 99,167(N15.18m) per month.

'If a continuous function is observed to be positive at a certain point in time, and then observed to be negative at a later point, then there must be at least one point between the two observed points where the function is zero, where it crosses the line separating the positive sphere from the negative sphere. That point of "transition," that critical point, can always be determined to any degree of approximation desired. I remember this theorem because it is true not only for mathematical functions but also for historical processes. It is, in particular, true for Libya – and, of course, Egypt'.

Icheoku says it is laughable the sudden explosion of disgust at Mubarak's style of governance, a sentiment which has become rather too loud in the West particularly in America. Egypt's Hosni Mubarak has now become a pariah dictator whom everybody wants chased out of Cairo 'NOW' that you wonder what hallucinatory substance these 'traducers' have been on all these 30 years plus of Mubarak's dictatorship not to understand the manner of man or the nature of his government. Mubarak is now being attacked from right, left and center by persons and countries supposedly custodians of democracy; and you wonder where these countries and persons have been these past 62 years, particularly the last 30 years Mubarak has been a maximum ruler of the land of the Pharaohs including the 5years he was a vice president? These people as well as many television, newspaper and radio commentators are now behaving as if Hosni Mubarak suddenly and like a meteor, just materialized on the scene of power in Egypt.

Mr Bouazizi an indigent, indigenous, black Tunisian university graduate had no job in what was suppposedly an enlightened and prosperous African country. He could not find employment anywhere much as he tried, and he had body and soul and family to cater for.

Survivor: Micronesia — Jason Voted Out!
April 24, 2008 08:19 PM by Ryan Haidet
This game is starting to get very dirty.
After last week's shocking blindside of Ozzy, the remaining eight Dabu members returned to camp. James and Amanda, who were not informed about the blindside, were upset about it. James said it was a good move on their part, but Amanda saw more than that – she was sniffing out the start of an all-women's alliance.
Then in an out-of-place moment, Cirie noticed that James had a cut on his finger and said that he needed to be more worried about it considering the conditions they were living in. That's all that was said about this – until a quick mention at the end of the episode. This must play a major role in future episodes or they wouldn't have bothered showing a finger cut.
Parvati realized she needed to do some damage control after she turned against James and Amanda. First, she told James that she wouldn't have been able to beat Ozzy and he needed to go. Then she told him that her plan was for three women at the end. Uh,James…WAKE UP! She tells you the plan and you just seem to accept it. What is the deal?!?!?! He did deliver his biblical reference as in the China season saying that everybody had been too tempted to "bite the apple."
Then she needed to talk to Amanda. Parvati told her the plan was to take the final five women to the end. Cirie came down to help talk to the angry Amanda and they all agreed to go to the final three together. But Amanda didn't buy it because she didn't know if she could trust them.
Then the contestants gathered for the Survivor auction – a reward-style event that gives everybody the opportunity to get something of comfort. Each player was given $500 and told there was to be no sharing of money or items. First up, Cirie paid $120 for a hot dog, French fries and all of the fixins.
Erik got a huge plate of nachos for $80. But it was a peanut butter and jelly sandwich that really lit up the bidding war. Amanda dished out $280 for that gooey goodness. Natalie splurged buying a covered item for $240 to find out that she had bought boiled bats. She just walked away from them, but James said he would eat them. He had already swallowed some down when the tribes merged, so no big surprise when he walked up to the table and started chowing down.
Natalie bid on another covered item and won it for $240. Host Jeff Probst revealed a bottle that had a note inside. It told her to pick one person to send to Exile Island immediately. She would then get to take all of their money. Jason begged not to be sent, but then Natalie asked if there was another immunity idol hidden since Ozzy's was now out of play. In fact, there was. She sent Jason anyway and took his cash. "This time maybe you'll get a real one," Probst told Jason after he found a fake hidden idol earlier.
Now with a wad of money, Natalie bid $380 on another covered item. It was a big chocolate cake with a note. It said she had to pick three others to help her eat the treat, but they only had 60 seconds to do so. She, Cirie, Alexis and Parvati gorged. Erik then paid Cirie $40 to lick her fingers of all the chocolate. With that, the auction was over.
Back at camp, they talked about Jason possibly finding the new hidden immunity idol and began working out a plan to blindside him just in case he did.
Over at Exile Island, Jason roamed the shores searching for the prize and found it after going on a small scavenger hunt. This time, he had a real idol – not a stick, as Eliza would say.
Day 30 just happened to be Erik's 22nd birthday, and he didn't want his present to be a ticket home. But he didn't have anything to really worry about because the girls had a different scheme up their sleeves. At the immunity challenge, all eight players had to throw rocks at tiles that had a set of puzzle pieces hanging in the air. The first four to break theirs would move on to the next round. Then the remaining players had to dig for a key to unlock their puzzle pieces, assemble them into a wheel, hook it up to a contraption and spin it until they lowered two planks. The first two to do that would move on to the final round. Those planks became steps for a rope bridge. The first player to get across the rope bridges would win immunity.
Before the challenge began, Natalie told Jason that James had to be voted out, so it was crucial to let anybody win but him. She advised him not to ask any questions, but promised that she sent him to Exile Island for a reason. He bought it entirely.
The first round was over extremely fast. Amanda, James, Erik and Jason all broke their tiles first. Then in round two, Erik and James were the first to lower their planks and moved on to the final round. It was a close race, but Erik got the ultimate birthday gift – he won immunity. The first part of the girl's plan had worked. Jason didn't win immunity and neither did James.
Back at camp, the black widow brigade (as Parvati described the women's alliance) was at work just after Jason and Erik left camp to go get food. Immediately, Natalie searched through Jason's bag and found that he had the new hidden immunity idol. James saw all this and heard what she said about sending him to Exile Island.
Just before Tribal Council, Jason thanked Natalie and vowed to keep his word with her. Jason, quite possibly the most naive player in Survivor history, then told Natalie he found the idol. She took that information as if she didn't know it and told him they were all voting for James. In a confessional, the breakout star of this episode, Natalie, said that she was finally having fun because she was playing the game very ruthlessly. She couldn't wait to blindside Jason and said she was ready to floss her teeth with his jugular. Where did she come from? All season long Natalie has said maybe five words and now she's taking over the show?
At Tribal Council, the jury walked in and Ozzy flipped off those who betrayed him. Probst addressed Ozzy's ouster saying they not only took out one of the toughest competitors, but the biggest provider. Jason then said his personal social standing had improved since the last vote.
Everybody then cast their ballots and Jason didn't play his idol because he apparently felt secure with Natalie's word. After the votes were read, it was close – one for Parvati, three for James and four for Jason. He was blindsided and for the second time in a row, the person voted out had the power of the hidden immunity idol and didn't use it.
Just before he sent them back to camp, Probst said medical wanted to take a look at James' hurt finger. Yep, this is definitely going to play a major role as is apparent by the preview for next week's episode where medical crews are examining the wound. Also next week is the family challenge and the players are told that another hidden immunity idol is out there.
After getting the boot, Jason Siska said, "I was definitely played today by Natalie and the rest of the girls. They did the same thing in voting out Ozzy. I should've been a little more wary of what they were telling me. What they did tonight will definitely come back to haunt them as I'm sitting up there on the jury. I just wish I would've been a little smarter and played the hidden immunity idol when I had the chance."
Hey, at least he didn't play a stick.

About Us:-
The department of History has been offering a subsidiary paper in the history of Bhutan since 1997. Beginning from July 2007, the department stopped actual teaching (though department existed) as the change came in under the auspices of Royal University of Bhutan (RUB). The introduction of double degree system demanded the revision of curricula to a full programme. The framing of full programme took almost two years due to lack of full time subject expertise. The department commenced its full course from July 2009. It covers wide range of histories of the world. The course offers students an opportunity to understand their religious, cultural, social and political history of Bhutan along with regional and international history. It gives both the faculty and the students an opportunity to understand the events, the ideologies, and actions which have shaped the world as a whole. Field visits will be often carried out in its efforts to achieve a fuller understanding and documenting research.

N.J. resident pleads guilty to role in drug conspiracy
A 26-year-old New Jersey resident who worked at a GM Foodmart store in Forty Fort has pleaded guilty to conspiracy to distribute synthetic marijuana, the U.S. Attorney's Office said Wednesday.
The defendant, Manjinder Singh, also known as "Mintu," appeared before Senior U.S. District Judge Edwin M. Kosik and admitted conspiring with others to distribute synthetic marijuana from the store from January through July 2012, the U.S. Attorney's Office said. Singh allegedly got the synthetic drug from out-of-state suppliers and sold it to customers at the store on Wyoming Avenue in Forty Fort.
Singh faces up to 20 years in prison and a $1 million fine. A sentencing date has not yet been scheduled.
The store's owner, Mastan Mathan, previously pleaded guilty to participating in a money laundering conspiracy connected to the sale of synthetic marijuana. He is also awaiting sentencing.

My Best Birth
I would love to know (since I don't know of any research) if your babies who were born at home tend to be calmer. I guess I'm asking because a hospital birth can be so chatotic and I'm wondering if anyone thinks a home can be more calming for a baby? I have seen quite a few home births where the baby seems so serene and dosn't scream a lot. Does anyone think home birth has/had a calming affect on…
