Barça Alusport sent Inter Movistar out of the tournament with a fantastic performance. Marc Carmona's men will have a chance to claim their second consecutive Spanish Cup title in tomorrow's final
FCB Alusport: Cristian, Ari Santos, Lin, Saad and Wilde –starting five- Sedano, Torras, Ari, Javi, Igor and Fernandao.
Inter Movistar: Juanjo, Tobe, Batería, Mati and Eka –starting five- Rafael, Ortiz, Álvaro and Hugo.
Goals: 1-0 Lozano (min 3), 1-1 Ortiz (min 14), 2-1 Igor (min 16), 3- 1 Ari Santos (min 32), 4-1 Torras (min 36).
The Barça-Inter Movistar faceoff was, as expected, a sensational duel between the reigning Liga champions and king of cups in Spain. It was the anticipated final. The first half was majestic, where the Catalans took the lead because of their better accuracy in front of goal. The second half was very tactical. In the last 20 minutes, Barça, with intense concentration and a commendable attitude, imposed their football on the futsal court. Fantastic game from the Catalans that's worth a final.
Early Lozano goal
Barça, with the same starting line-up they used in the semi-finals, couldn't have started off on a better foot. On two minutes, Saad saved a goal on the goal line and on the next play, with a very fast counterattack, Lozano put the 1-0 on the scoreboard with a fantastic shot. Luck was on Barça's side when Cristian diverted Rafael's shot, moments later Batería would hit the post. Barça's accuracy in front of goal had given them the early lead.
Draw and reaction
Inter took the initiative. Barça Alusport was organised at the back and their counterattacks were threatening. Barça tried to control the flow of the game, completely opposite from the Madrid side, who were very comfortable with back and forth type of match. Eka warned Barça with a second shot to the post just before Ortiz tied the match up with a fantastic goal (min 14). But Marc Carmona's men didn't shy away from the challenge and they took the lead once again through Igor. The morale boost was very important seeing that the match intensity was sky high. Only Batería's injury slowed down the pace of the match before the end of the first half.
Barça imposes its skill
The pace wasn't as high in the second half. Barça needed to slow the game down while still looking for the third. Javi Rodríguez and Torras came close to netting; luck was on Inter's side. On 32 minutes Igor's shot hit the post. In the next play, after a great triangulation between Wilde, Lozano and Ari, Barça put the 3-1 on the scoreboard. Basic.
Torres clinches the match for Barça
The gravity of the situation was putting Inter's players on edge, and Eka earned his marching orders - Inter was a man down. Barça Alusport created chances to put the game beyond reach and it was Torras, with a terrific shot on 36 minutes, that clinched a spot in the final for Barça. After an open first half for both sides, Barça took control in the second. This Sunday, Barça will have the chance to claim their second consecutive Spanish Cup.

Earlier we had reported that Sonakshi Sinha would soon feature in popular rapper Yo Yo Honey Singh's next music album. Later we learnt that it was not just a music video but an entire album that she would be featuring in. Now we hear that after Sonakshi Sinha, Jacqueline Fernandez would be featuring in the rappers next video.
Confirming the development, Honey Singh stated that he decided to approach Jacqueline Fernandez to feature in his music video after seeing her performance in the Salman Khan film Kick. Floored by her perfect split in the track 'Jumme Ki Raat', Honey Singh decided that she should feature in his next.
Of late, Honey Singh has been the flavour of the season in Bollywood, especially with his composition and renditions being used in films. His latest being 'Aata Majhi Satakli' track from the recently released Singham Returns.

A friend seems convinced that the IRO group buy comes with a headset, seatpost, and bottom bracket. I didn't take part in the buy, but have a feeling they may have misread things (I don't recall anyone ever mentioning anything about those being included).
So, is there actually anything included with the IRO group buy frameset?

BaconFest Chicago, 2010.
On April 10, 2010, I went to the best place, ever.
Literally—I went to BaconFest Chicago, 2010. An all-day festival of bacon, though recommended attendance is the half-day ticket because last year, porcine-diehards struggled to consume a day's worth of bacon. Now, I consider myself a true lover of bacon, with Fridays' being my favorite day of the week not because of the burgeoning weekend, but because on Friday, I get bacon grilled cheese.
It's really the simple things.

Suspended former New Orleans Saints defensive coordinator Gregg Williams has already met with the Tennessee Titans and is on the verge of...
Suspended former New Orleans Saints defensive coordinator Gregg Williams has already met with the Tennessee Titans and is on the verge of becoming the Titans' assistant head coach, league sources told ESPN.com.
Before Williams can finalize a contract with the Titans, however, he must first be reinstated by NFL commissioner Roger Goodell — a move that could come as early as this week, according to the report on ESPN.com.
Should Williams be reinstated, no obstacles are expected on the contractual front, according to sources. The two sides are familiar with each other, with Williams having worked in Tennessee from 1997 to 2000.
Williams already has met with Titans officials, including coach Mike Munchak, who is said to be in favor of Williams' addition to the coaching staff.

Additionally, former Titans and St. Louis Rams coach Jeff Fisher has endorsed Williams to his former employer. Fisher hired Williams to lead St. Louis' defense this season, but Williams' suspension for his role in the Saints' bounty scandal lasted the entirety of the 2012-13 season. Williams was not retained by the Rams at season's end.
Neither Williams nor his representatives could be reached for comment.
Pro Bowl
players loose
HONOLULU — Adrian Peterson signed and tossed miniature footballs into the Aloha Stadium stands, then chatted up Hall of Famers Eric Dickerson and Marcus Allen. Arian Foster played Peyton Manning's bodyguard for stadium cameras and told fans he recently walked on hot lava.
The Pro Bowl players practiced a little, too, on a sunny Saturday in Honolulu, one day before an all-star game that will likely be used to determine its own future.
But the game's main purpose is fun, said several players, including Chiefs running back Jamaal Charles.
"I feel like there's no responsibility, it's just all about fun," Charles said. "You work hard during the year — it's not like a competitive game."
Competition — or at least the appearance of it — is exactly what the NFL is looking for from its stars Sunday as it uses the game as a measurement of whether it's worth putting on in future years. Goodell has said the game will stop if play doesn't improve, drawing mixed reactions from top players.
Chicago cornerback Charles Tillman said he doesn't want this year's Pro Bowl players to be known as the group who led to the game's cancellation, taking away an honor and privilege from future players.
"I don't want this to happen on my watch," he said.
The AFC is a slight favorite over the NFC. Las Vegas bookmakers expect 81 ½ points to be scored.

Re: Just posted? Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ100 Sample Gallery
Regarding the studio scene comparison shot, I notice that the lower-pixel-count FZ35 jpg has a much larger file size than the shot posted for the FZ100. Is it possible that the FZ35 shot was saved in the Fine mode but the FZ100 shot was saved with Standard compression? That might account for the loss of detail. If this is not the case, then why would the FZ35 photo be a larger file size, given the FZ100's higher pixel count? What is going on here?

2PAC, broadly I agree with you. F1 should be in my opinion absolutely without rules other than say, open wheels, engine size limit, overall length, width, weight. This would allow such fantastic progress to be made by creative engineers. I was lucky enough to see this over the years.
BUT, we do have so many rules that it is now farcically a competion between engineers and lawyers, and what I was saying is, if its like that, then please dont lets have a season of protests, lets cut down some of the issues and fit standard wings that could also look reasonable, and then let the engineers have a free reign on chassis (But no skirts or twin chassis and auxiliary blowers!!)

FRANKFORT, Ky. (AP) — Kentucky Auditor Adam Edelen has set 10 hearings across the state to discuss the fiscal health of rural hospitals.
Edelen's office says 45 percent of Kentucky residents receive health care at small, community hospitals and that the facilities help drive local economies.
The hearings start next week in Prestonsburg and continue through Aug. 12 in Campbellsville. They kick off a study by Edelen's office to look at challenges facing small hospitals. The auditor's office is seeking financial records of dozens of rural hospitals and plans to issue a report this fall.
Edelen's office says hospital administrators and staff, local elected officials, other health care providers and the public are invited.

The mountain consists of three peaks, the Low Peak, Middle Peak, and High Peak. Tasman Glacier, the longest glacier in New Zealand lies to the east while Hooker Glacier is in the west.
Mt Cook is protected within Mt Cook National Park. This park has a number of other significant mountains including Mt Tasman the second highest mountain in the country. As you can imagine, there are plenty of places for climbing, but for the average traveller, there are miles of tracks ranging from easy to difficult.
Scenic flights are a great way to see this alpine expanse with one favourite trip being a heli-skiing adventure starting at the top of Tasman Glacier. This is where the country's longest ski run starts with a 29km run to the end of the glacier.
Mount Cook National Park is certainly a challenging rugged alpine environment, but with world-class hotel, camping facilities, a tourist information centre, and walks, it is not without its comforts.
Multi-coloured alpine lilies grow in the park and a photo of these flowers with snow capped peaks in the background, certainly makes for a good postcard. This park is also the only place on Earth where the beautiful Mt Cook Lily exists.

The objects of popular culture in the National Collection display everything from ashtrays to wristwatches reflect the public adulation for Lindbergh and the powerful commercial response to his celebrity. More than 75 years after the Spirit's historic flight, Lindbergh's name still has the power help sell manufactured goods.
Gift of the Stanley King Family.
Physical Description:
A decorative spoon with relief images on the handle. The images include the City Seal, Flat Iron Building, Statue of Liberty, Brooklyn Bridge, Obelisk, Park Row Building, Grant's Tomb and the Soldiers and Sailors monument. These images comprise the entire length of the handle.

The El Dorado Springs Optimist Club named the Teachers of the Year at the El Dorado Springs R-II School. They are Mrs. Jennifer Ring (Elementary), Mrs. Melanie Steward (Middle School) and Mrs. Nicole Smith (High School).
Elementary Principal Tracy Lanser wrote about Jennifer Ring: This year will be Jenny's eighth year with our district. During the last year, she took a leadership role in organizing the St. Jude's Math-a-thon and served as a member of the Elementary PBIS team. She does an excellent job in the classroom and has even provided students with an opportunity to participate in a book club called "Flashlight Readers." Jenny has volunteered to be certified as a Smart Board trainer and always goes above and beyond to troubleshoot and offer technical assistance when needed. She approaches her job and her working relationships in a very professional manner.
The Middle School administration wrote about Mrs. Melanie Steward: Mrs. Steward teaches sixth grade study skills, which focuses on the reading side of communication arts. She has been teaching for 12 years with the last four being in her current position in the sixth grade. Every year she goes out of her way to help her students adjust easily to middle school life.
High School Principal David Hedrick wrote: Mrs. Nicole Smith has taught at EHS for the past five years. During that time she restarted the Speech and Debate team. Last year she had over 30 students compete in her program. She has also had her students qualify for state and national competitions. She has also presented five major theatrical productions and last year had 84 students participate in Li'l Abner.

Liverpool in £20 million Newcastle raid!
There has been some reports which have claimed that Liverpool are planning a big money move to try and prise Hatem Ben Arfa to Anfield in the summer transfer window.
Boss Brendan Rodgers is looking to strengthen his wide options for next season, and has identified the French international as a suitable addition.
According to a report on Spanish transfer website fichajes.net, Ben Arfa could be the subject of a £20m bid from the Reds, and is open to the idea of moving to Anfield.
Newcastle boss Alan Pardew will be loathe to lose another key member of his squad – after Demba Ba's £7.5m switch to Chelsea in January – especially given Ben Arfa has missed large parts of this season through injury. (Daily Express)
The Frenchman is brilliantly gifted and will surely be chased by a few clubs in the summer transfer window so although Newcastle may want to keep him. Liverpool will just be a one of a number of clubs that will show interest in the man.

NOT related to the Burnaby Bentei Sushi, except for the name.
Ohhh the infamous Bentei Sushi, one of the few restaurants that scored less than 30% on Urbanspoon. Although I drive by all the time, I've never noticed it. Apparently there are two Bentei Sushis, the original one is near Holdom Skytrain station. The one we're reviewing was sold off and changed owners three times. Not exactly a confidence builder… The only reason we're going is to see if it really deserves 27%. Heads up, for the new Bentei Sushi, click here, but you might as well read this one first since you're here.
The minute we stepped in, we were greeted by such a weak irasshaimase they might as well have not said anything. The restaurant itself was pretty dim, almost dungeon-like. Luckily we were given a window seat. Service was quick; we were immediately served traditional rice tea, or in this case, tea-coloured water.
Looking through the menu, nothing really stuck out. They had the usual like sunomono, spinich gomae, nigiri sushi, rolls, and the not-so-special special rolls. It's now apparent they're in business because they're the only Japanese restaurant around…
Since there is no bacon on the menu, Bacon decided to skip out. With just the two of us, Specs and I opted for the two-person dinner, which had a nice variety. Two salads, two soups, two small udons, 4 piece chicken karaage, California roll, Dynamite roll, nigiri sushi, and tempura all for $25.95.
The salad came out first, and it looked delicious! Crisp lettuce, ample dressing, julienned beets; what more can you ask for! Specs and I really enjoyed the salad, though the dressing got a bit sweet near the end. Maybe Bentei Sushi changed for the better, or so we thought…
For the next three minutes, we were literally bombarded with food. If you want a more visual representation click our timeline at the end. But seriously, who brings out miso soup, udon, sushi, and sashimi at the same time. We honestly didn't know where to start. If we ate the udon first, the sashimi will go bad. If we eat the sashimi first, the udon will get mushy. Ai yai yai.
The chicken karaage was garbage. I've never seen such small and shrunken chicken wings before. If you look closely, you can see the meat fibres. I'm surprised the meat wasn't crispy.
The udon consisted of a clear MSG broth with pieces of veggies. It must be my good looks, because I got THREE small pieces of broccoli (Specs only got two) along with a leaflet of my favorite veggie, Shanghai Bok Choy! Surprisingly, the udon was still chewy, and all the vegetables still had some bite to it. I felt the best part of this dish were the vegetables. This is good or bad depending on the person.
The California roll was predictable and a bit on the salty side. If a Japanese restaurant can't get the simplest roll right, how can they get more complicated dishes right. The Dynamite roll was just a grown-up version of the California roll with a prawn tempura. The prawn tempura was so mushy that it made no difference if they included it or not. In my opinion, the two rolls are too similar in taste. They should've subbed the Dynamite roll with a BC roll instead.
Like in the Dynamite roll, the tempura was quite mushy. However, hey tend to forget about the tempura sauce. It didn't happen to us, but I heard other diners complain. It seems to be a common theme amongst their reviews. Either they are terribly forgetful or terribly cheap. You decide.
The nigiri sushi was oddly warm… Everything but the salmon tasted fishy. Like I always say, "If it's fishy, it's not fresh". Also, unlike the rice in the rolls, the chefs managed to over-sweeten the rice for the nigiri. This made the sushi quite unpleasant.
Surprisingly, even with its horrid rating on UrbanSpoon, there was a steady flow of customers while we were there. Many ordered bento boxes. Perhaps we should try those next time… if there is a next time!
FoodRebuttal Recommendation: With Japanese restaurants sprouting up like Pho restaurants, there's no need to eat at Bentei Sushi unless you're in the area.

Has anybody gotten a bfp with husband having a varicocele?
I know that you can treat a varicocele thru surgery, but my husband does not have insurence at the moment. So I just want to know if I have any chance of conceiving..

We just did! We were told that he would have to have the Varicocele Embolization surgery or we would have to do IVF to achieve pregnancy until some genius Reproductive Endocrinologist prescribed HIM Clomid. He was on Clomid for approximately 4 months and his sperm count went from 11 million to 22 million even with the varicocele! The 4th month my dr put me on Clomid (cycle day 5-9) as well, to increase our chances of getting preggo. With the help of ovulation tests and elevating my hips after sex for an hour, we got preggo!! This was all after 4 years of trying to conceive, but it is very possible if you try hard enough. Ooh and don't forget to give him a multi vitamin, fish oil and vitamin e, he was on that as well.posted 11/25/2012 by a BabyCenter Member

- Definition
Carbidopa, which inhibits the enzyme responsible for the breakdown of levodopa to dopamine, does not cross the blood-brain barrier. When levodopa is given in combination with carbidopa, the extracerebral breakdown of levodopa is diminished. This reduces the amount of levodopa required daily for beneficial effects, and it lowers the incidence of nausea, vomiting, hypotension, and cardiac irregularities. Such a combination does not prevent the development of the "on-off phenomenon," and the incidence of other side effects (dyskinesias or psychiatric complications) may actually be increased.
Sinemet, a commercially available preparation that contains carbidopa and levodopa in a fixed ratio (1:10 or 1:4), is generally used. Treatment is started with a small dose—eg, one tablet of Sinemet 25/100 (containing 25 mg of carbidopa and 100 mg of levodopa) three times daily—and gradually increased depending on the response. Sinemet CR is a controlled-release formulation (containing 25 or 50 mg of carbidopa and 100 or 200 mg of levodopa). It is sometimes helpful in reducing fluctuations in clinical response to treatment and in reducing the frequency with which medication must be taken. The commercially available combination of levodopa with both carbidopa and entacapone (Stalevo) may also be helpful in this context and is discussed in the following section on COMT inhibitors. Response fluctuations are also reduced by keeping the daily intake of protein at the recommended minimum and taking the main protein meal as the last meal of the day.
The dyskinesias and behavioral side effects of levodopa are dose-related, but reduction in dose may eliminate any therapeutic benefit.

Ending a relationship
BY Cynthia Hickman Freelancer
How to break up with dignity and mutual respect.
Psychologist Cynthia Hickman outlines seven measures to take when faced with the difficult task of breaking up.
Start slowly
Allow time to prepare mentally and emotionally. Imagine the future, then plan and organise what you can so the transition is not too traumatic. Have the courage to tell your partner you believe the relationship is over. Talk this through on multiple occasions to allow time for both of you to process it.
Expect a roller-coaster
Your emotions may swing from moment to moment. There may be the exhilaration of new freedom, then the grief for what has been lost or the terror of what is to come. Avoid addictive behaviours that mask this process. Be gentle with yourself and keep some routine going to maintain stability.
Don't carry baggage into your next relationship. It takes two to end a relationship, so don't blame yourself or demonise your partner. Work out each of your issues and have compassion for both. Apologise for weaknesses. Ask: "What have I learnt? What would I do differently?"
Just because it's over is no need to diminish what you had. Prevent depression by gaining a healthy perspective. Don't romanticise the past, but do value the good stuff. What did you appreciate in your partner? What did you contribute? What can you both be proud of? Tell them. Tell yourself.
Don't just end a relationship, complete it
Have the necessary conversations so you can be at peace with your decision. You can have a ritual to end things, perhaps a last meal. To end with dignity, say something like: "I now go my way and let you go yours. I wish you well for the future."
Allow a transition time
Don't rush to fill the gap. Allow the discomfort and time for new things to arise - it can be a fertile time if you let it. But do make boundaries. Don't draw out the pain by constant sleepovers or unnecessary contact. Return their belongings and collect yours. You need time to grieve.
Develop wisdom
An ending doesn't mean failing. They can be painful, but they are also a catalyst for growth. If you leant on someone before you are now forced to become whole. It is the chance to develop independence and emotional strength. As you face your fears you become stronger and enriched.

The vote could come up later Tuesday night or over the next few days, but gun rights advocates still are not on board because of the state's list of gun purchases.
The fear is that this will ultimately lead to gun registration.
As gun sales surge along with applications for concealed pistol licenses, proponents of background checks have been getting closer to getting a vote on the state House floor.
They'd like to get more support, or at least no opposition, from gun rights leaders. But opposition still looms due to the state database that tracks pistol sales. Second Amendment advocates want the state tracking system eliminated. But the Association of Sheriff's and Police Chiefs were there in force supporting both background checks and keeping the Department of Licensing list.
"We use it every day to make sure the right people have guns and the wrong people don't," said the association's Don Pierce. "And we don't support doing away with that particular file."
The chiefs and sheriffs say that file can help solve a crime and reunite a stolen gun with it's rightful owner. State Representative and Seattle Police officer Mike Hope said nearly half of felons in prison say they got their guns through private purchases, currently not covered by background checks.
"So we want to make sure we prohibit felons and the mentally ill from obtaining guns," Hope said.
But fellow Republican and sheriffs deputy Brad Klippert fears this will all lead to gun registration. And only law-abiding citizens will follow this if it becomes law.
"And those people who are purchasing guns illegally on the black market and committing crimes against their fellow citizens are not going to obey this law, just like they don't obey the ones we have now," Klippert said.
But a new Stuart Elway poll shows that 79 percent of Washington residents favor background checks in all gun sales.
The bill's chances of passing in the state House are said to be quite well, but its fate in the State Senate is less certain.

Music Tonight: Locally-bred guitar superhero Adrian Belew is back in his homestate for a special gig at the Southgate House in Newport. Belew shows are always amazing, but tonight's performance is part of the Two of a Perfect Trio tour, which teams the Adrian Belew Power Trio with Stick Men, featuring Belew's mates from King Crimson, Tony Levin and Pat Mastelotto. It'll be a night of Prog Pop and Rock as the Stick Men open things up at 8:30 p.m. with their explorations on Chapman Stick (the bass-like instrument Levin helped popularize), acoustic/electronic percussion and Markus Reuter' homemade "touch guitar" work. After Belew's set with his trio, the two ensembles will join forces for the "Crim-centric" encore, running through their favorite King Crimson compositions. The show is open to all ages; admission is $22. Below, check out a great retrospective documentary about Belew covering his entire career, narrated by the Twang Bar King himself.

Bell Helicopter at HELI-EXPO 2013 Relentlessly Focused on Its CustomersFort Worth, TX - Bell Helicopter, a Textron Inc. company (NYSE: TXT), will showcase a number of aircraft and program updates at HELI-EXPO 2013, the world's largest helicopter trade show and exposition, hosted by Helicopter Association International (HAI) in Las Vegas March 5-7. Bell Helicopter invites show attendees to its opening event on March 5, at 11:30 a.m., where it will introduce new product upgrades designed using continued customer input and engagement. Bell Helicopter will host Mission Theater - a series of thought-leadership presentations. Each thirty-minute briefing will highlight how Bell Helicopter continues to lead the industry in adding value for customers and industry partners alike. In addition, the company will provide a program update on the world's first "super-medium" helicopter, the Bell 525 Relentless, featuring an exclusive look at the new Bell 525 simulator. Bell Helicopter will also conduct demonstration flights of the Bell 429 and Bell 407GX daily. "HELI-EXPO is unquestionably one of our most important events each year," said John Garrison, Bell Helicopter's president and CEO. "As the largest helicopter show in the world, it gathers together many of our most important customers, prospects and suppliers. That makes it an ideal environment for Bell Helicopter to interact with our customers, hear more about what is important to them, and discuss how we can best address their needs."According to Garrison, keeping the customer at the center of everything Bell Helicopter does enables the company to fulfill its mission to deliver the products and support customer needs today and well into the future. It is because of this customer focus Bell Helicopter achieved record results in 2012, including an impressive 50 percent increase in commercial deliveries.The company anticipates continuing growth in commercial deliveries this year. "We expect 2013 to be another big year as we build on the momentum we established in 2012 - which was a record year for both our military and commercial programs," added Garrison.Growth momentum in the future is expected to come from a balanced military and commercial portfolio, with an emphasis on expanding Bell Helicopter's commercial product line. The company has invested significant resources in creating differentiated products for its commercial business. The most recent focus of this investment is the development of the industry-acclaimed Bell 525 Relentless, introduced at HELI-EXPO 2012 and expected to achieve first flight in 2014."Developments like the 525 Relentless would not be possible without the valuable input and involvement of our customers," said Garrison. "As part of our product development strategy that puts customers at the center of everything we do, we have assembled a customer advisory panel that is involved in every step of the design process. This helps us ensure we provide our customers with the right products at the right time."In addition to focusing on the customer throughout the product development process, Bell Helicopter remains committed to providing world-class support and service. In fact, the company has been expanding its international capabilities to be closer to its global customers, most recently opening a new service facility in Singapore and appointing two new Customer Service Facilities in China. The company's focus on its customers has been a key differentiator for the company, as evidenced by Bell Helicopter's consistent number one ranking in customer service for close to two decades.To accommodate the advancement of its commercial and military programs, Bell Helicopter recently broke ground on new and upgraded headquarters facilities in Fort Worth, Texas. The company is investing in the facilities as part of a comprehensive revitalization effort designed to improve coordination and collaboration among its 6,000 North Texas-based employees. The move also will consolidate more than 1.2 million square feet of excess space, reduce building maintenance costs and increase the company's cost-competitiveness.HELI-EXPO 2013, held in the Las Vegas Convention Center, will host 20,000 industry professionals, more than 650 competitive exhibitors, over 60 helicopters on display and more than 50 educational opportunities, including education courses, seminars, workshops and forums.

"The approval of the increased gross weight also allows customers to use the full mission capabilities of the Bell 429's design."Transport Canada approved operation of the Bell 429 at 7,500 lbs (3400 kg) in January 2012 after conducting an extensive technical evaluation.

Billy Bell and Jose Ruiz – African Jazz – The Homoerotic Dance
Billy Bell and Jose Ruiz dance African Jazz on So You Think You Can Dance
Music: The Hunt
The "hunter-prey" concept was more "top-bottom" on the dance floor really. What was the choreographer thinking?
Interesting that the show ended with the worst dance of the night. It was very awkward. I thought that Billy and Jose should get a room somewhere after this dance.

Dodgers tougher than in the Lucchino Era
There was a time in the 1990s when the Padres made fun of the Dodgers, painting them as inept, wealthy bumblers. Think of Thurston Howell residing at Chavez Ravine rather than on Gilligan's Island.
John Moores said he "felt sorry" for the Dodgers, while General Manager Kevin Towers openly questioned the heart of Dodgers teams. The Padres even mocked a Dodgers GM, Kevin Malone, for declaring there was a new sheriff in town upon taking the job. The Padres responded by costuming Moores, CEO Larry Lucchino and Towers in Wild West garb and splashing the photo on the front of their media guide.
Now the Dodgers really are bullies. And while baseball has a wonderful habit of destroying predictions, it looks like the Dodgers will be bullies for awhile.
The 1990s and early 2000s are long gone. The Dodgers are smarter than in those days when Malone was clearly overmatched and Tommy Lasorda was allowed to play GM for a time and do things like trade Paul Konerko for Jeff Shaw.
The irony is that one of the talent men aiding the Dodgers is Logan White, a former Padres scout fired by Towers in the mid-1990s.
Here are four current Dodgers players that White drafted or signed as amateurs: Clayton Kershaw, Yasiel Puig, Matt Kemp and Kenley Jansen.
Gone as well are the days of the Dodgers spending beneath their means.
Not only are the Dodgers outspending every other team, including the Yankees and Red Sox, they apparently are being rewarded for it in an era where sports content is king in TV Land. "You hear they're making a lot of money," said one veteran National League executive. "The people who put money into the club are getting a lot of money back."
While I figure the Dodgers still could be vulnerable because many of their key players are past their prime years, a veteran scout tells me the Dodgers figure to outspend any of their mistakes. Take the signing of Cuban second baseman Alex Guerrero to a $28-million contract last October. "I don't see where Alex Guerrero will ever be successful in the major leagues but with the Dodgers, it's like 'OK, who do we sign next?' The Dodgers are like how the Yankees used to be," he said.
The scout, while acknowledging that the Dodgers could flop this year, pointed to three other variables that he expects to make the Dodgers dangerous for years to come: their farm system, the farm-building pedigree of Dodgers CEO Stan Kasten with the Nationals and the Braves, and the hiring of Bob Engle in late 2012 to take over the team's international operation.
On the surface, Baseball America's recent rankings show the Dodgers' farm system as nothing special. Here is how the NL West shakes out:
7 -- Padres
11 -- Rockies
14 -- Dodgers
16 --D-backs
19 --Giants
But the scout said Dodgers are more interested in finding "impact" prospects than in building depth, because they have the money to buy depth at the major league level.
Despite trading several prospects in recent years, the Dodgers still have several high-upside prospects, with the scout ranking the trio of future third baseman Corey Seager, 19; outfielder Joc Pederson, 21; and lefty pitcher Julio Urias, 17, as potential standouts. While the scout rated much-praised pitching prospect Zach Lee as "overrated," he said Seager "is a really good-looking hitter" who will "grow into his body" and "could bring them just about anybody in a trade." He described Mexico's Urias, clocked at 92-95, as "fabulous" and said Pederson is "kind of a Billy Buckner kind of a guy -- he isn't a center fielder though he's better there than (Andre) Ethier. I could see him hitting .300. He hits good pitching."

CHICAGO (AP) — Big Ten administrators would prefer a plus-one system over a four-team playoff to determine a national champion if the status quo can't be maintained.
In the plus-one format, the bowl games would be played, and then the top two teams would meet for the national championship.
Nebraska chancellor Harvey Perlman says conference presidents would choose to keep the system in place if there were a vote today. But he says "we're also realistic" and that change appears to be inevitable.
Perlman spoke on a conference call Monday, a day after Big Ten administrators met at the league's suburban Chicago headquarters.

The Students' Union is affiliated to the Union of Students in Ireland (USI). USI does at a national level what the Students' Union does at university level and was founded on the principle that students together are more powerful than students apart and today represents 250,000 students throughout Ireland.
USI campaigns for the right of all students to education and for student's rights within the education system. USI lobbies politicians and government departments as well as forging links with interest groups, youth groups, trade unions and individuals who will support student causes. USI organises and demonstrates on a national, regional and local basis.
Irish students' interests are represented by USI at national and international level. USI is the only organisation recognised by the Government to represent students on national bodies. USI Officers are the sole student representatives on the boards of several Irish educational bodies such as the Higher Education Authority, Higher Education and Training Awards Council and National Qualifications Authority. USI has also recently re-established links with the National Union of Students in Europe to represent students at a European level.
USI provides training for everyone involved in students' union structures at the start of the year and throughout the year. USI offers resources to unions by producing materials such as briefings and campaign packs for local use. USI publicises student issues and enhances the profile of students' unions on radio, television and through the printed media. USI campaigns run throughout the year on issues such as fees, cutbacks, mental health awareness, access to education and maintenance grants.
The USI Officer board 2013/14 is made up as follows:

Let the Real Force Be With You!
What is Kundalini? Kundalini meditation energy is the formative, biological Life Force energy dormant in our bodies. Formative in the sense that it creates our very shape and substance in the womb, dormant because it becomes inactive at the moment of birth. And unless it's reactivated by the practice of a reliable method like Golden Flower Meditation (GFM) that features the backward flowing method, a time-tested technique for sexual sublimation, it will remain dormant throughout your life. Because most people don't realize that the Kundalini~Life Force resides within them, they may never reactivate it, much less experience a Kundalini awakening. If you've had a Kundalini experience, you're going to keep looking for something that validates it. Well, you've found it. A source for information about the experience itself and the aftermath — how to activate it, how to accept it, how to live with it. Clear, concise Kundalini information is lacking; that's the purpose of this site. Safe, reliable, permanent, Kundalini activation info.

Why is Kundalini so Misunderstood?
Because many people are confused by Kundalini's real nature, we must do more to define it accurately, starting with what it is not. First and foremost, it isn't devil worship or a supernatural cult. Neither is it a religion nor a sect. It's a biological process. You can be converted to a religion, but you can't be converted to Kundalini any more than you can be converted to a heart attack or an orgasm. They just happen. That's the nature of biological processes: They just happen, sometimes voluntarily, like an orgasm; sometimes involuntarily, like a heart attack. Kundalini can be triggered either way — voluntarily or involuntarily. But the most reliable, permanent, safe activations are voluntary, triggered by methods like GFM.
Up to now self-styled holy men and gurus have tried to persuade us that the Kundalini expanding consciousness process (and its principle technique: the backward-flowing method) was something only they, so-called spiritual adepts, had access to. Only by becoming a follower or by joining a certain cult could the individual be initiated into the secret rites surrounding Kundalini — and that, only as long as they were willing to pay. Now, suppose You realized the Life Force energy responsible for your bodily substantiation was actually inside you, that you were capable of reactivating it. That's the purpose of this website: to provide information on the hidden potential within each one of us.
The Kundalini Gopi Krishna wrote about isn't the province of religion; it's a scientific fact, a biological sub-system. Religion is only an attempt to explain or co-opt it. In reality, consciousness came first and precedes all. The ancients then discovered doorways into pure consciousness, one of them being Kundalini. They discovered that the Kundalini energy transference process is included in the body to serve an evolutionary purpose. If it didn't serve a purpose, it wouldn't be there. Evolution would have eliminated it.
Curiosity and circumstance often propel individuals beyond the confines of their upbringing, dumping them into unfamiliar, unexpected life situations. Thus was JJ Semple transported into a trial-and-error process of self-discovery, a path that took him from the Eastern Brahmin establishment, to France, to a meeting with Gopi Krishna in India, and back to the USA. What he found along the way was Kundalini, the biological basis of both science and religion.
Early on, Kundalini meditation and Kundalini Yoga techniques were practiced by mystics, those rebels unhappy with the constraints of religion, iconoclasts inspired by the challenge of extending consciousness. Rebels like Jesus Christ, Buddha, Lao Tse, and Milarepa. Writers like Gopi Krishna, Richard Bucke, PD Ouspensky.
Why does Kundalini Shut Down at Birth? We are all perfect at that split-second moment before conception. Of course, like a building before the foundation is laid, at that moment our beings are only blueprints. These blueprints — the numinous plans laid out for our substantiation — are perfect. At the moment of conception — the moment the egg is fertilized by the sperm — the body begins to take shape. It's the moment when, were we able to stand over our perfectly drawn blueprints, we would wonder if they could be executed as designed. That's the job of Kundalini, the Life Force. Until the moment of birth, it controls our growth. The moment we are born we become conscious and Kundalini — our natural life force — becomes inactive. After birth, of course, something always interferes. We get sick, accidents occur, we become addicted, we get older, our bodies break down. Most of the time we just go on living. What else is there to do? That's the irony of Kundalini: just when we need it most, it becomes dormant. If only the blueprint could have been realized without interference! If only my body had a warranty! Well, it DOES!
How does Kundalini Work?
Although biological processes just happen, Kundalini is a process that can be induced through the proper use of certain techniques, such as GFM, that is, its awakening can be controlled to a certain extent. The key to a Kundalini awakening is sexual sublimation, the alchemical process of distilling seminal fluid and diverting it to the brain. That's right, to raise Kundalini one must repurpose sexual energy.
Kundalini is a practical tool for self-healing, natural living, and heightening consciousness. It's that simple. Once reactivated by a meditation like GFM, Kundalini inventories the body and replenishes worn out and damaged neural systems by streaming vital growth energy — the same growth energy that shaped our bodies in the womb — to the afflicted area. Our bodies are like complex instruments, controlled by complex systems of communication. The most important of these is the nervous system. Kundalini uses the nervous system, with all its interconnecting channels, to convey vital energy to our extremities. And once the nerves are conditioned, the energy buildup becomes so great that even structural defects, deformities, and irregularities can be corrected.
Kundalini is so powerful its energy can actually be transferred via Kundalini Shaktipat meditation techniques. This may only entail a temporary Kundalini awakening, but sometimes a glimpse is all you need to motivate you to practice a more long-lasting Kundalini meditation like GFM. The entire process is described in Deciphering the Golden Flower One Secret at a Time.

Greaves, Hilary and Wallace, David (2011) Empirical consequences of symmetries. [Preprint]
|PDF - Submitted Version
Download (369Kb) | Preview
It is widely recognised that 'global' symmetries, such as the boost invariance of classical mechanics and special relativity, can give rise to direct empirical counterparts such as the Galileo-ship phenomenon. However, conventional wisdom holds that 'local' symmetries, such as the diffeomorphism invariance of general relativity and the gauge invariance of classical electromagnetism, have no such direct empirical counterparts. We argue against this conventional wisdom. We develop a framework for analysing the relationship between Galileo-ship empirical phenomena and physical theories that model such phenomena that renders the relationship between theoretical and empirical symmetries transparent, and from which it follows that both global and local symmetries can give rise to Galileo-ship phenomena. In particular, we use this framework to exhibit analogs of Galileo's ship for both the diffeomorphism invariance of general relativity and the gauge invariance of electromagnetism.

Thousands Protest Lack of Justice for Trayvon Martin
Barrington M. Salmon | 3/28/2012, 9:41 a.m.
Freedom Plaza Rally First of Many in the District of Columbia
Perhaps as many as 2,000 people packed a closed-off section of Pennsylvania Avenue in Northwest to demonstrate their revulsion and outrage at the murder of 17-year-old Trayvon Martin.
The throng which took part in Saturday's Washington DC Rally for Justice, spilled down the steps of the John A. Wilson Building and clogged a city block and large sections of Freedom Plaza adjoining city hall.
Latoya Smith, 36, brought her two sons, Kelis, 11, and Dante, 6, with her to the rally, which took place under overcast skies and intermittent drizzle.
"When I heard what happened to Trayvon it hit home," said Smith who lives in Northeast. "I've been asking why it happened, what was the story and it's getting worse and worse as you find out more."
Bishop Michael Kelsey of New Samaritan Baptist Church in Northeast, said indignation brought him to the March 24 rally.
"My outrage in terms of injustice brought me out here," said the 56-year-old Glenn Dale, Md., resident. "I wanted to be in Florida but could not. The turnout is incredible considering the weather and I'm really impressed with the range of age groups."
Kelsey said education and a greater willingness by people of all races and ethnicities to learn and appreciate other people's cultures are keys to change.
Taking to the Streets
A phalanx of protestors stood on the steps of the Wilson Building shoulder-to-shoulder holding hands with heads bowed before the afternoon event started. Most sported hoodies and held packs of Skittles and cans of Arizona Iced Tea, the items Trayvon had gone to the store to purchase. Others, with arms fully extended before them, held fliers with a photograph of Trayvon wearing a grey hoodie.
Among the signs held aloft: "I don't apologize for my blackness or your fear", "Hoodie, Skittles, tea, black - Guess I'm next," and "Skittles is not a weapon." One young white woman held a large poster above her head emblazoned with the words, "Trayvon Martin is my son too."
The crowd's energy ratcheted up several levels when a large contingent of demonstrators marched up shortly after speakers began addressing the crowd and converged across from the Wilson Building.
"We are ..." the new arrivals chanted with a throaty roar.
"... Trayvon!" their compatriots across the street shouted back. Each side repeated this call and response for several minutes before the second group hollered, "Skittles, ice tea are not suspicious to me!" and then both sides picked up the chant.
Trayvon, an honor roll student, was shot and killed on Sunday, February 26 while returning home from a convenience store in Sanford, Fla. He was staying with his father in a gated community that was being patrolled by George Zimmerman, a self-styled community defender. Zimmerman, 28, admits shooting the high school junior, who was spending time with his father after being suspended from school for tardiness.
Zimmerman told a police dispatcher that the young man looked suspicious, he followed Trayvon despite being told not to, and during the confrontation shot him in the chest. He claimed self-defense and has not been arrested.

text: Pensioner cleared of Twaddell tea attack 10 Apr 2014 A pensioner has been acquitted of assaulting a policewoman by throwing a cup of tea over her near a loyalist protest camp in north Belfast. Share Share Share Story by UTV Staff, Belfast However, Agnes Redford was convicted of disorderly behaviour during the same incident last December.The 63-year-old, who helps serve refreshments for Orangemen campaigning to complete a contentious parade past the Ardoyne district, received a 12-month conditional discharge.Belfast Magistrates' Court heard she had been standing at Twaddell Avenue roundabout with other women when a motorist drove past and shouted sectarian abuse.CCTV footage appeared to show her then step forward while holding a white polystyrene cup and waving a red white and blue scarf complete with an image of Queen Elizabeth II.It was claimed that she could be heard shouting back to the motorist: "Kiss that."A police sergeant told the court she intervened at that stage and tried to usher Redford back onto the traffic island.She said: "The next thing I had tea running all down my face, and all down the front of my body armour."I said to her 'You have just thrown tea around me' and she said 'What the f*** are you going to do about it?'"I said 'I'm going to arrest you'."Redford, of Altnacreeva Avenue, Belfast, was detained and subsequently charged with assault on police and disorderly behaviour.Her case was that any spillage occurred accidentally after she had her arm grabbed.Giving evidence she told how she has been involved in making tea and sandwiches at the camp set up for Orangemen protesting over being banned from completing a Twelfth of July march last summer.She claimed that as she was standing on the traffic island on 7 December a female motorist drove past and called her an "Orange bitch" and a "whore".Redford continued: "She said get that scarf off your neck or I'll wring you with it."According to her account she stepped onto the road after being threatened, only for the officer to push her back.Questioned by defence lawyer John Greer, Redford denied throwing tea over the policewoman.She told the judge: "When you come up against the Crown you be truthful, you be honest."If you have done a thing you admit you have done it and I haven't done it, your worship."The cup was not even a quarter full at the time," she added.After hearing all the evidence Deputy District Judge Joseph McCrisken dismissed the assault charge but convicted on the disorderly behaviour count.Redford may now appeal that conviction. © UTV Share Share Share

I had first heard of My Name is Khan back in the summer of last year, after Shah Rukh Khan was, somewhat ironically given the plot & premise of the movie, held at US immigration for a few hours as the airport authorities found him suspicious on the basis that his surname was "Khan". The story was soon dropped, but for a few hours, the rapacious Indian media feasted on the bones of the scandal. (As an aside, I love using the word "rapacious" – it reminds me of the Velociraptors in the Jurassic Park movies)
So going to see the movie last night with an Austrian friend who is rapidly sinking into the quagmire that is Bollywood-mania, I had a pretty good premise of what the movie would be like. My concerns were primarily around the fact that the movie was a Karan Johar production, especially since KJ is never quite known for being subtle or discreet, but prefers to hammer in the ham & emotion with a sledgehammer. Don't get me wrong – I love my good ole' Johar flicks – but I was intrigued how a filmmaker of his ilk would treat something as sensitive as racial profiling in the USA in a post 9/11 world.
This blog-post is not meant to be a review, so I won't spend much time going over the fundamentals of the film. But the reason I'm writing this piece is because there were many elements of the story yesterday that resounded quite closely with me, and that I found particularly affecting. And at the very end, for me, a film is only successful if it can relate to you personally; the big bang glamorousness of a blockbuster is only as good as the emotions it can generate in your heart. That is why the first Star Wars worked, while the more recent additions to the franchise don't. And that is why My Name is Khan is, at least in my eyes, a successful film.
The reason for this is pretty straightforward – MNIK is a film about being different, not being typically like the others around you, and about having the courage and conviction to embrace the identity that is yours, regardless of how well that lets you "fit in". Rizwan Khan is, in the movie, the ultimate outsider, who through his entire life inhabits liminal spaces. In India, his minority status is based on his religion. In school, he is bullied by peers for his autism. At home, his brother resents him for being the centre of his mother's attention. In the broader US community, he is an immigrant. In the US Muslim community, he is a vocal moderate willing to challenge fundamentalists, who marries a Hindu divorcee with a child (herself a minority). But the Khan we see in the movie is someone who is at peace with his own identity, in whatever the circumstances. He is not necessarily able to understand why other people do not like him, but at no point do we see him turn around and say, "I wish I was not Muslim / autistic / brown ..."
And for me, this is where the success of the movie lies. Unlike other commentators, who have moaned at length about how "unrealistic" the movie is, I don't really give a damn (especially since most of the same commentators had raptures over an equally improbably Inglourious Basterds.) I don't care how "cognitively realistic" the movie was, but how "emotionally realistic" it was. I don't need to know why Rizwan Khan travels the length & breadth of the US, in his attempts to meet the US President and tell him that he is not a terrorist by virtue of his name. Fundamentally, none of these elements really matter.
Perhaps my perspective is skewed by my circumstances. I am an Indian national who has lived less than a third of my life in the country of my nationality, but my identity is intensely Indian, primarily founded on a childhood travelling with parents who were diplomats. I was not born in India, but in Pakistan, which means that unlike other NRI's who travel back to India, I am now increasingly subjected to intense scrutiny at Indian immigration, where officers are perplexed that someone who was not born before Partition can have an Indian passport even though he was born in Pakistan (the same happenstance raises eyebrows at many airport check-in counters, immigration barriers, and cocktail parties). And even though I am proud to be an upper-caste Rajput Hindu with an impeccable lineage that I can track back hundreds of years by name, I find much in religion to be tedious and ritualistic; something that is exploited by clergies to keep the masses in check.
But the results of this upbringing are ubiquitous. I find that India drives me insane, but outside the country I am one of its most impassioned (and I would hope, erudite) defenders. I have lived much of my life overseas, and as a frequent traveller on an Indian passport have the infinite joy of having to apply for millions of visas ahead of any journey. At the same time, the idea of giving up my passport for a more convenient one, though attractive from a purely pragmatic point of view, is quite emotionally difficult. I have friends who are activists of all sorts across the world – ranging from LGBT campaigners through to aid workers in Haiti, through to American Muslim university professors, much like Khan's hijab-wearing sister-in-law in the movie, who wear the scarf not out of any circumstance of familial or gender-based suppression, but out a sense of identity and protest. Many times my friends have opinions or views that I cannot agree with. At the same time, the reason we are friends is because we are able to accept that we are inherently different, and are friends because, not despite, those differences.
And so perhaps because of these circumstances I was touched by the movie last night; and this is why the movie is "emotionally realistic". Rizwan's message of being true to yourself, regardless of circumstances or environment, was a strong, touching and most importantly, personally relevant one for me. It reminded me that there are many other people out there in the world who are as different as I am from the others around me, with different hopes, aspirations, dreams and identities; people who cannot claim to be from any "majority", but that ultimately it is important to remember that despite being different, it is still possible to be yourself.
And perhaps, even, to be happy.
