(Potential Bioshock Infinite SPOILERS Below!)
I'm just going to pick the lowest of low hanging fruit and talk about Elizabeth Comstock. I'm not doing this because I'm lazy—I am, but in this instance that's not the reason—but because she really is the best character I've run into this year in video games. Dante from DMC: Devil May Cry is a close second, but he's also embodies so many tropes we are used to seeing that he borders on generic. He isn't, but he's close.
I knew the main story and the big twist to Bioshock Infinite before I started playing, but Steam gave me the game for $10 and I couldn't resist. In this case, the journey was more important than the destination.
The destination was perfect and the journey was better.
The star of Bioshock Infinite is Elizabeth Comstock. When she joined my party, I—and Booker—sighed. Here we had a character I had to babysit: something akin to a game-long escort mission.
I was wrong. Booker was wrong. We were so very and pleasantly wrong!
There are so many amazing things to this character that I'm hard pressed to know where to begin. Should I start with her actual gameplay attributes or her simple character nuances?
I can remember freeing her and then watching her dance in bliss to such cheery and fitting music that I hesitated to make it stop. I can remember this sly look she gave me when I told her I was alright, despite the fact that I had been thrown out off of a very large statue by an even larger bird-monster. I can remember telling her she was dealt a bad hand and then feeling foolish because that was a stupid thing to say, even if it was the only thing I could say.
I can remember her sorrowful expression at the end when she did what was right, even if we both didn't want it to happen.
Elizabeth started in a cage, and when the Lutece twins asked her which pendent was the better, I—Booker—told her to pick the bird. She was no longer in a cage and I couldn't stand to see her carry such a symbol around. Booker picked the right choice.
She was not meant for a cage, and the proper timeline dictated such.
Here is a character who was hardened by harsh experiences yet wasn't shoehorned into the generic "she's powerful because she's a man" role. She was her own person all the way through. Every major plot twist hurt her, but she overcame them in nuanced ways that were more important than Booker's gunplay.
When she killed Daisy Fitzroy I felt bad because I didn't want her to experience this, but then I felt foolish. She had already experienced the same or worse in our journey. She isn't a child, and she's stronger than Booker in so many ways. She hesitated doing what I was willing to do with a mouse-click, and that makes her stronger because I was so eager and willing while she was not. She did what was necessary while still holding onto values. Booker killed because that's what Booker does. She killed because that's what the situation reduced itself down to. There was no other way.
In the end, Bioshock Infinite wasn't about Booker's journey; it was about Elizabeth's. It was about her freedom and her quest to find out who she was, why she was imprisoned, and what would happen next. It was about her finding more than herself: she discovered the universe.
And that's only the story aspect to Elizabeth Comstock! She's powerful, and then she's so much more.
I thought I would be dragging her along and watching over her. I thought she would be annoying and a hindrance.
She was my best friend in Bioshock Infinite.
She opened locks, which was both interesting and fitting. She grew up in a cage, so she thought of ways to escape them. Her abilities to crack locks found me valuable items and information. This fit her character as well as gameplay. That's special.
She found me health, ammo, and salts. She saved my life more than she knows. Numerous times I was fighting more enemies than I couldn't realistically take on, and numerous times she would throw me a health pack, an extra weapon, or even a vial of salts so I could defend myself.
She opened holes in reality and unlocked ammo, weapons, salts, and so much more. She brought forth things that no one else could bring forth, and because of that, we made it to the end.
She would thank me when I was victorious and she would chastise me and bring me back to life when I was not.
During the end, she took control of the Raven and saved everything, for without that power, Booker would never have beaten the final climax of the game.
And after that, and after that…and after that she did what was right. She put a stop to everything.
She ended the game when Booker could not.
Bioshock Infinite is so much more than a video game, and Elizabeth Comstock is the soul reason for that.
She is an amazing character, and writers of video games have so much to aspire to.

Pretty Kymberlee Anne loves loads of jizz over her pretty face
Kymberlee Anne curves were delicious as she shook that sweet ass all around. She pulled up her top and displayed those big juicy tits. Tyler joined the party and oiled her down. She sucked and fucked his cock. She got her pussy pounded as her juicy tits and ass bounced around.

Probably about 40-50rwhp on the stock heads.....less if you keep the stock exhaust manifolds.
So I've been searching around for a little bit with little luck trying to find out how the hellfire cam works in the 5.7 with stock heads. I wanted to know what kinda of gains it will give by itself. I have found a bunch of people who installed it with new heads and long tubes and got impressive numbers.
I want to keep my mds and i found a few people who have kept mds with no problems.
If anyone has dyno numbers or improvements at the track thats what I am looking for.
Probably about 40-50rwhp on the stock heads.....less if you keep the stock exhaust manifolds.

That cam rally wants more up top than the stock heads will give it. If you are set to stick with stock heads for some time, then go with a sidewinder.
anyone able to quote the base specs on that cam?
"Hellfire - (5.7 - 6.1) Small lifts with healthy durations make this a solid midranger performer that should work w/ MDS. This thing will let people know you have a cam because its fairly lopey and even more so in a 5.7 while in a 6.1 its not so bad. Does very well with power adders such as turbos, blowers, and nitrous.
MDS Friendly - YES
Tuning Considerations - B&G, SMT6, and PSCII (*Note - tuning the 5.7 will be more of a task while the 6.1 isn't bad at all)
Specs - 216/220, 528/531, 114 LSA"
This is from FRI's subforum.
i know this doesnt quite belong....
but what do you get out of much larger exhaust duration?
my custom cam has like ...(ugh now i have to go dig up the card..)
WAY more exhaust duration and lift than the intake.
its definately a top end "fat" cam, and the lifts in general are large, but what makes it distinguished from what ive seen is the longer than average exhaust numbers.....
my speed shop picked it for me, and im just curious about what you would specify big exhaust for.
have i been redundant enough? lol
dont get me wrong, i love the cam, but a lot of the numbers i see have the exhaust and intake numbers pretty similar, unlike mine.. but let me tell you, it tears
i idid request to have a lopey cam, and im wondering if they specified this as part of it, or if that has more to do with the ICL
this peaks my interest and spurs my thoughts because of the numbefrs i see on the hellfire. similar trend to mine even tho i think mine has a little bigger lifts...
found it
.547 .556

running great with my decked heads, but like i said, im craving a verter or some gears for the down low

having a larger exhaust profile helps for engines with artificial atmosphere, AKA boost, or N20. since these engines dont have to worry about pulling the charge into the cylinder, as its pressurized, but you can only cram so much air through an open exhaust valve given pressures in the cylinder. this means the exhaust duration has to be longer. make sense? this is a somewhat basic explanation, someone more knowledgeable on cams can better explain.
Being in Southern California, how difficult would it be to pass the smog dogs with one of these cams?

same as stock from all of my experience.
mine with the super big exhaust lifts (if that even makes a difference) passed the tailpipe sniffer with high flow cats in.
for whatever reason the ob2 wouldnt register... might have to do with custom tuning? i dont know... but the place was like "oh well, ive seen this on a lot of new cars.... we can do it this way..." and did it old school... i didnt complain.
either way..... passing is no problem as far as emissions go

Meyer benches Marcus Hall for Big Ten title game
INDIANAPOLIS (AP) - Ohio State coach Urban Meyer will not let right guard Marcus Hall start Saturday night's Big Ten championship game against No. 10 Michigan State.
Meyer said Friday that Hall would be replaced in the lineup by freshman Pat Elflein. Meyer did not say how long Hall would sit out.
The move comes less than a week after Hall was involved in a scuffle at archrival Michigan. He and kick returner Dontre Wilson were ejected from the game. Before leaving the sideline, Hall threw his helmet to the ground, then made an obscene gesture to the Wolverines fans as he walked into the tunnel.
The No. 2 Buckeyes (12-0) could reach a fourth BCS title game if they beat the Spartans (11-1) in Indianapolis.

Behind The Scenes Photos From 'Leatherface' Hint A Young Jackson Sawyer
The much-anticipated Texas Chainsaw Massacre prequel, Leatherface, is currently filming in Bulgaria in hopes of a 2016 release. We know that , starring Sam Strike as li'l Leatherface, Jackson Sawyer, but we know precious little else.
The last we saw of Leatherface was the 2013 Texas Chainsaw 3D, which was a critical failure despite having more than doubled its budget at the box office.
Still, here are some cool behind-the-scenes pics from the Leatherface set (via ) which are mostly nondescript, but the first one, with a little boy with a bloody, misspelled "FOLO ME" daubed on his back is certainly interesting.
What do you want to see in 2016's Leatherface?

I have had this set of plates for about 7 years. The plates are 10 inches, with gold around the edges and along the verge. I love the pattern but In that time I have never been able to identify the pattern name, find any other like it or determine the date. The only thing I know (or think I know) is that this mark was used beginning in 1907 and ended in 1949 when it was marked Rosenthal Selb-Germany until 1954. This one really has me stumped. I hope somebody out there knows the pattern or has better reference material at hand than I do! Thanks for taking the time to look.

Separate names with a comma.
Discussion in 'SN95 4.6L Mustang Tech' started by 04gtdrop, Jul 13, 2005.
Please lock this thread and ban everyone in it (except me)
Just because the engine revs faster doesn't mean the clutch will slip. I'm quite sure that the clutch would be more likely to slip with more load and less revs than more revs and less load.
And the fact that you cannot grasp the concept of mechanical advantage in the form of torque multiplication is simply stunning given your post count.
I mean, c'mon, someone with 5,500 posts on stangnet has to know EVERYTHING by now right?
I didn't really care what the answer was...
I'm not pulling anything out of anywhere...
So one has to take a physics class to understand physics or post on stangnet and make real world sense?
By the way I have took two classes in Physics I can go on forever...
Give Me TP - Why ban? A lock is fine...but on banning...no name-calling has taken place (that isn't in fun)...and no threatening or "bad" pictures are posted A nice quick lock will do the job
jimfitzgerald - Correct. Both sides. It takes two too argue/debate.
Look in the bold: That is what I stated..."the straw that could break the camel's back". Reread what I posted...do you think some don't read the other post? I never said it would automatically slip. I said it would be more likely to slip than before the gears. All in context my friend
What is post count? I'm not for sure what your real point is here. When did I not understand mechanical advantage? They kept using this "load" deal...when the revs overcame the effiecent advantage. Then they try changing it up...I challenge them to reread all of that. If their bored of course.
That was a joke
You didn't make real world sense, you can't give a single thread or proof to back up anything you've said.
You stated that the lower gears (numerically higher) put more load on the drivetrain components forward of the rear-end, which is not true at all. If this was the case, the car would be slower than before due to the extra load put on the drivetrain.
You make no sense and remind me of another back-tracking poster that we had on here named EddieHaskell.
Lol...no it doesn't...the steeper gears get that "torque" to the ground and overcompensates the "more load" (as you put it) on the drivetrain. That is silly to think that under traction that a lesser gear won't put less strain than a steeper gear. Why do you think people get a nice SOTP feel from steeper gears...because of the "hit" they provide. "Think about it."
Your thinking is quite a bit off...possibly reversed
So I need to come up with something better than a rubberband theory huh?
I haven't given a single thread or proof (confused on that anyways)...you mean post I'm assuming. That's funny...I guess if that is the case then you haven't either and where back at square one...so let's start over on this "debate"
I've given plenty, and even tried to break down to the simplest terms with the rubberband example, which you still can't seem to comprehend. This isn't a debate over what gear is the best to choose. Laws of physics are not debatable, all of which go against the points you've tried to make.
Reread the thread...
wow this thread is still alive? i already got my gears put in...LOL ahh man. thanks guys
Has any one ever compared quarter mile times when it comes to 3.73's and 4.10's? Is the difference really THAT big?
I always thought times would improve any where from 0.3-0.5 seconds (correct me if I'm wrong).
I already bought 3.73's, so I'm not going to go with 4.10's lol. I'm just curious what the time differences are stock for stock (One GT with 3.73's and nothing else, one GT with 4.10's and nothing else).

Sweet Briar College will host the Girls on the Run of Central Virginia Spring 2013 Celebration 5K at 9 a.m. Saturday, May 4.
A non-competitive 'fun run,' this race is the culmination of the region's Girls on the Run spring program. Central Virginian girls ages 8 to 13 have been training for 10 to 12 weeks in preparation for this event, which recognizes and celebrates their efforts.
Saturday's event will also include runners from the spring 2006 team, said Central Virginia council director, Mary Hansen. The girls, who are now graduating high school or entering their senior year, will assist with the opening ceremony, and eight of them will participate in the race.
"We thought it would be fun to introduce them to the younger girls," Hansen said.
Among them are Girls on the Run junior coaches Meghann Hansen, for the R.S. Payne Elementary School team, and Jessica Winters, who is in charge of Madison Heights.
The Lynchburg-based Girls on the Run council has already held three races at Sweet Briar since the two women's organizations announced a partnership in August 2011 — one in the fall of 2011, one last spring and a third race this past fall. As in November, the picturesque route will take runners from the old train station through campus and along the Dairy Loop, winding its way past the riding center and through the woods.
Sweet Briar is a proud supporter of Girls on the Run's mission, which is "to inspire girls to be joyful, healthy and confident" and to "educate and prepare girls for a lifetime of self-respect and healthy living." Girls on the Run also provides opportunities for Sweet Briar students to volunteer, mentor the younger girls and share some of the benefits they've experienced in an all-women's educational environment.
Dozens of volunteers, including Sweet Briar students and employees, will help with course setup, work pre-race activities such as the happy hair table, or serve as running buddies for the 280 registered girls as they tackle the challenging 5K course.

The Federal Trade Commission has granted Kroger and Harris Teeter Supermarkets early termination of the waiting period under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976 with respect to the pending merger transaction between the two companies.
The early termination of the HSR waiting period satisfies one of the conditions to the closing of the pending merger, which remains subject to other customary closing conditions. Both companies expect the transaction to be completed before the end of January.
On July 9, 2013, Kroger and Harris Teeter announced a definitive merger agreement, which was approved by the boards of directors of both companies. On Oct. 3, 2013, Harris Teeter shareholders approved of the merger agreement. At the closing of the merger, Harris Teeter shareholders will receive $49.38 in cash for each share of Harris Teeter common stock they own.
The announcement came in conjunction with the Kroger board's move to declare a quarterly dividend of 16.5 cents per share to be paid on March 1 to shareholders of record as of the close of business on Feb. 15.
In September, the company's board of directors raised the quarterly dividend by approximately 10%, to 16.5 cents per share. Kroger has delivered double-digit compound growth in its dividend since it was reinstated in 2006.
The company continues to expect an increasing dividend over time.

Marie Harf, a spokeswoman for the US State Department, said on Thursday that "given the crisis in Gaza, it's natural that agencies take additional care to review deliveries as part of an interagency process. That is by no means unusual and, again, does not indicate any change in policy." Live Box 20148291714160390 "I'm not going to give a specific reason behind why, during a crisis, we would take a second look." Harf was responding to a Wall Street Journal report on Thursday that said the Israeli military had quietly secured US ammunition supplies from the Pentagon which caught White House and State Department officials off guard during the Gaza conflict. She played down the idea that the White House or State Department were surprised by the Pentagon's shipments or that there was any diminution of US support for Israel. The newspaper said the Obama administration had since tightened its control on arms transfers to Israel, a close US ally that has strong support within the US Congress. On August 3, the US State Department issued an unusually harsh statement after shelling at a UN school in Gaza. While it did not explicitly blame the shelling on the Israeli military, it urged greater care to protect civilians.Source: Reuters

Mastronardi Produce has donated 1,000 cases of greenhouse tomatoes to a New Orleans food bank.
On Oct. 17, the day before the Produce Marketing Association's Fresh Summit convention in New Orleans, Mastronardi donated Zima grape tomatoes and Campari cocktail tomatoes to Second Harvest, the local chapter of Feeding America, according to a news release from the Kingsville, Ontario-based company.
After making the donation, Mastronardi officials toured the Second Harvest facility.
"We're very proud to be able to contribute to not just our local community, but whatever community we happen to be in," Chris Veillon, Mastronardi's director of marketing, said in the release. "These kinds of opportunities remind us of our common goal to serve the community in any way we can."
Second Harvest's network of agencies in southern Louisiana feed 263,000 people annually.

Christmas Eve is a day that many families spend together, celebrating the holiday with their own traditions. Some families open gifts on Christmas Eve, while others spend the evening enjoying a home-cooked meal together, reflecting on past Christmases and enjoying each other's company. Whatever your family traditions on Christmas Eve, you can make the night even more memorable and entertaining with some family activities.
Enjoy the Christmas decorations by setting up a board game by the tree. If you have an active and gregarious family, play a Christmas-themed charades game. Have each member of the family come up with five Christmas characters, movies, books or songs. Put all the clues in a hat and divide the family into teams. Be sure to make the teams as even as possible. If you have small children who want to play, make a separate pile of easier clues for them to act out on their turn.
Opening One Present
If your family is one that saves the present opening for Christmas morning, give everyone a little taste of what's in store by allowing each person to open one present on Christmas Eve. If you'd rather not let each person choose which one to open, get a collection of small stocking-stuffer-sized presents specifically for the Christmas Eve opening. For small children, opening a single present will help to tide over their excitement for the big day.
Family Screening
If you have all day with the family on Christmas Eve, spend a couple of hours in the afternoon drinking eggnog and watching a classic Christmas movie. Many classic Christmas specials play on television when the holiday gets close, so flip through the channels to find one or rent one ahead of time. Consider such classics as, "It's a Wonderful Life," "Miracle on 34th Street," and the modern classic, "The Polar Express."
"The Night Before Christmas"
Start a family tradition of reading the famous Clement Moore poem "The Night Before Christmas" before bedtime. This classic poem celebrates the legend of Santa Claus and includes many famous lines that echo throughout American culture at Christmas time. Reading this classic on Christmas Eve will get everyone in the holiday mood while educating them about literature.

Immune-Endocrine Cross-Talk in Reproductive Biology and Pathology
Call for Papers
Immune cells products, that is, cytokines, chemokines, eicosanoids, and nitric oxide, primarily participate in host responses to disease or infection but are also involved in homeostatic mechanisms in the reproductive tract. The physiological function of the reproductive tract is dependent on a cross-talk between immune-endocrine factors. Although, the importance of cytokines and other inflammatory mediators on physiological homeostasis in reproductive tract is unique, the molecular, receptor, intra- and intercellular mechanisms mediating immune-endocrine cross-talk are still unknown. Moreover, the mechanism by which the fetal allograft is tolerated by the maternal immune system is still a mystery.
To promote discussion and further development in this exciting area of research, we invite investigators to contribute with original research articles, as well as review articles, that seek to elucidate the role of inflammatory mediators and immune mechanisms of inter- and intraorgan communications within the reproductive tract. We are interested in articles that describe basic mechanisms underlying the contribution of inflammatory mediators to physiological reproductive processes and to the pathogenesis of reproductive disorders and infertility, both in human and other species by using animal models. These articles will also address possible new methods of diagnosis and current concepts of treatment using anti-inflammatory and immune-modulating agents. Potential topics include, but are not limited to:
- Cytokines and other inflammatory mediators on the central regulation of reproductive processes
- Cytokines and chemokines as local regulators of the estrous cycle and pregnancy
- Sex steroids modulatory effects on immune system
- Immunological regulation of embryo/fetal-maternal cross-talk including the role of antigen presenting molecules
- Immune regulated aspects of male reproduction and contraception
- Lipid mediators in physiology and pathology of reproduction
- Glucocorticoids in physiology and pathology of reproduction
- Nitric oxide and other angiogenic factors in physiology and pathology of reproduction
- Cytokines and other inflammatory mediators effects on cell biology, especially on different cell death modalities and cell-to-cell communication
- Inflammatory processes in the uterus
- Inflammatory mediators and carcinogenesis in the reproductive tract

Lady Gaga Names Her Wheelchair as Haters Claim Tour Was Canceled Due to Poor Sales
Lady Gaga has been seen wheeling her way around Chicago while she prepares for hip surgery to correct a tear that caused her to cancel the remainder of her Born This Way Ball tour. She has even given the chair that's helping her get around a name…
…and it's Emma.
She shared the photo of Emma's big wheel. At least she is trying to approach a painful situation, both physically, emotionally and financially, with a sense of playfulness.
Some critics have taken to suggesting that Gaga's tour was canceled not because of her injury but due to poor ticket sales. There has been a huge debate about it online, mostly between little monsters and those who claim that Gaga is given special treatment by the mainstream media, which is spinning her tour's failure as something else. We doubt that it was canceled due to ticket sales, since she and Live Nation would stand to lose more by axing it outright than by creating promotions and discounting tickets in order to pack the houses.
Live reviews indicate that the venues did look packed to the rafters prior to the cancelation. Attendees echo those sentiments. So argue amongst yourselves, monsters and non-monsters, as to who is right.
We'll hope Gaga gets better on the quick so she can resume performing on stage where she belongs.
We're sure some haters will say she is "milking it" by being seen in her wheelchair and by naming it.
So go ahead and hate.

NEW YORK (TheStreet) -- Korea's LG Electronics held a big party in London this week to introduce the world to its new flagship smartphone running on Google's (GOOG) Android OS - the G3. LG described it as the most "ambitious" device to come to market this year.
Following weeks and weeks of speculation, LG announced its third-generation, top-of-the-line handset made to compete with Samsung's Galaxy S5, HTC's One (M8), the iPhone 5s and whatever else Apple (AAPL) is planning to introduce in the coming weeks and months.
LG noted everything was designed to make your life - in a world - simple. Like its predecessor, the G2, the new design sports no buttons on the side. Like its predecessor, all controls on the G3 are on the back right under the camera.
The new G3 will come with what LG describes as a 5.5-inch, Quad HD display. sporting an industry leading 538 pixels. South Korea-based LG stated its screens are sharper and clearer than any other smartphone currently on the market. That same display, according to LG, also uses less power than it really should be for that technology. In person, the screen is barely framed by a bezel and is amazing to look at.
The G3 runs on a Qualcomm (QCOM) 801 quad-core processor and 2 to 3 GB of RAM. It also features a new 13 MP camera with LG's "laser autofocus" system. LG boasted that it focuses so fast that it's quicker than a blink of your eye. The camera is also said to be great at capturing videos - with improved sound.

I was 20 weeks as of 11/30/12 that day I woke up and was bleeding non-stop we went to the doctors office and she examined me. She said my cervix is fully dilated and my water sack is hanging out and will break at any moment. They can't save our baby because he his lungs and kindney are not fully formed. We went home after the doctors office was told to wait for my water to break then go to the doctors office. That evening I went to the bathroom and felt a deep pressue pushing down on my vagina. I looked between my legs and there was a large clear water sack hanging out and getting bigger and bigger. My husband said he can see our little guy's feet dangling in the water sack. Some how I manged not to break my water until we got to the hospital. From there they popped my water and I gave birth to a stillborn baby boy named Camden. My placenta was still attached inside me and I was rushed to OR and have it removed. Yesterday we picked up our little guys urn from the funeral home.

It's a gut feeling
It is not easy to find the right diet when you suffer from irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). It is a common term affecting a majority of the population. The causes for IBS vary from lifestyle and stress to hormonal changes.health and fitness Updated: Oct 29, 2013 16:20 IST
It is not easy to find the right diet when you suffer from irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). It is a common term affecting a majority of the population. The causes for IBS vary from lifestyle and stress to hormonal changes. IBS is a disorder that is characterised by abdominal pain, discomfort, bloating and changes in bowel habits. Diarrhoea or constipation may predominate too.
There are three types of IBS: IBS with diarrhoea, IBS with constipation and mixed IBS with both diarrhoea and constipation.
There are no specific reasons why some people get affected with this disorder and react strongly to stimuli, and some don't get any troublesome symptoms. On eating certain foods, the symptoms of IBS may be triggered. For example, chocolate, milk and alcohol may cause diarrhoea or constipation. Aerated drinks and certain fruits and vegetables may lead to abdominal discomfort. In most people with IBS, the signs and symptoms are worse during stressful events. Since more women than men have IBS, researchers believe that hormonal changes play a role in this condition.
The symptoms of IBS are worse during or around menstrual periods.
Small wonders
Probiotics are live microorganisms that supplement the gut's natural bacteria, helping to balance intestinal flora. They have been studied and used in many gastrointestinal disorders. Probiotics have a beneficial effect on the intestinal mucosa. They help suppress growth of bad bacteria and improve gut motility.
One of the best probiotic foods is live cultured yogurt, especially homemade. Eat one bowl of yogurt every day (200 ml) to repopulate the gut with good bacteria. Similar to yoghurt, kefir is a unique mixture of milk and fermented kefir grains. It is high in lactobacilli and bifidus bacteria. It is also rich in antioxidants. Sauerkraut is cabbage fermented in brine. It is extremely rich in healthy live cultures and contains vitamin B, A , E and C. It gets its distinctive flavour from lactic acid that is formed when the natural sugar in cabbage is fermented. Miso soup, also rich in probiotics, is made from fermented soybeans.
Probiotics help in preventing and treating vaginal yeast infection and urinary tract infections. They also treat IBS and speed up the treatment of certain intestinal infections. They help in preventing and reduce the severity of cold and flu. Two of the most vastly found and known probiotics in the intestine are bifidobacterium and lactobacillus. These adhere to the intestinal walls and multiply keeping your body healthy.
Certain foods like such as pulses, beans, nuts and seeds can cause an increase in gas and bloating. A certain amount of gas is normal. However if this problem begins to plague you every day you need to begin making changes in your diet, lifestyle and supplementation.
Irritable bowel syndrome is one of the most difficult intestinal maladies to treat. No single treatment works for everyone. There is little help through allopathy. Natural remedies have more to offer.

275ml Milk
4 Egg Yolks
100g Fairtrade Caster Sugar
1 Split Vanilla Pod or 2 drops of Vanilla Essence
250g Divine White Chocolate with Strawberries
150ml Whipping Cream
3 Leaves Gelatine
Place the gelatine leaves into a bowl and cover with cold water. Leave them to soak.
Cut the chocolate into small pieces and place into a large mixing bowl. This will help it to melt quicker later on.
In a mixing bowl stir together the egg yolks and sugar with a whisk.
Place the milk and vanilla into a thick-bottomed saucepan and put onto a medium heat.
When the milk begins to boil pour it onto the egg yolk and sugar mixture.
Stir it well and then pour back into the saucepan.
Return it to the stove on a low heat and stir with a spoon.
Continue to stir until the "custard " mix thickens. You know it is ready when it coats the back of the spoon. Do not over heat, as you will have scrambled eggs!
As soon as it is ready strain the custard mixture onto the white chocolate.
Stir the white chocolate and custard with a spoon until the chocolate has completely melted and mixture is smooth.
Drain away the excess water from the gelatine and place the now soft leaves into a small saucepan.
On a very low heat gently warm the gelatine until it starts to melt.
Once completely melted pour it into the chocolate mix and stir well.
Allow the chocolate custard to cool.
Using a whisk whip up the cream until it is fairly stiff and holds a "figure of 8"- this is commonly known as "stiff peak".
Gently stir the cream into the chocolate custard.
Pour the mixture into glasses or suitable moulds and place in a fridge till set.
If you are not serving in a glass you can turn out your mousse by running under warm water and loosening the mousse from the edges of the mould with the point of a knife.

Will Jerry Colangelo and the Arizona Diamondbacks struggle to make a buck in their new, taxpayer-financed stadium? Or will they turn a huge profit right out of the gate?
The answer from Colangelo is both. It all depends on whom he's telling.
When he was convincing the Maricopa County Board of Supervisors to approve a quarter-cent sales tax to build the stadium, he said the team would lose money the first year and barely scrape by for ten years.
But as he trolls for investors to pony up the hefty Major League Baseball franchise fee, he is projecting a $12.9 million profit in the first year alone.
The new profit projections are contained in a secret financial prospectus circulated by Colangelo to private investors in the Diamondbacks. If the rosy predictions come to pass, Colangelo will have pulled off a series of stunning political and financial coups that would make Donald Trump envious.
First, Colangelo got the Board of Supervisors to impose an unpopular sales tax to raise $238 million to cover most of the expense of a retractable-domed stadium. The total cost of the stadium is expected to be $284 million.
Second, he persuaded the state's rich and powerful to kick in another $100 million of the $130 million franchise fee. The $30 million balance for the fee will be covered by bank loans.
Then, he secured control over the operation of the stadium and the team through a ten-year contract that will pay his management group a fee worth at least $2 million a year.
And, finally, once he repays his Diamondback partners their initial investments, Colangelo and his management group will pocket 25 percent of the team's profits.
Not bad for a guy who is putting only $800,000 of his own money into a project worth more than $410 million.
How did he do it?
The old-fashioned way: He played fast and loose with the numbers.
When Colangelo needed the supervisors to approve the quarter-cent sales tax, he wore his pauper's coat. A financial report prepared by Welle Consulting Group of Minneapolis for Colangelo was presented to supervisors.
The February 16, 1994, report showed Colangelo's baseball investment group losing $376,000 the first year, with losses continuing for five years. That report also showed the baseball team losing $42 million after ten years. But the loss on the team was offset by $73 million in profits Colangelo's group would earn from operating the stadium.
The Welle report overstated stadium profits, however, because the report assumed a $30 million contribution from the City of Phoenix over ten years. The city didn't agree to the contribution. Without the city's support, Colangelo's group would barely be scraping by after ten years.
The bleak financial outlook was an essential element in convincing the supervisors that taxpayer support was necessary to build the stadium. No stadium, no baseball team.
Supervisors voted 3-1 to impose the tax.
With the sales tax in place, Colangelo donned his power suit to round up investors. Earlier this year, he circulated the confidential private offering to potential investors. Recipients of the offering were warned not to reproduce or distribute the document without Colangelo's written consent.
The offering contains detailed financial projections that were kept secret for several months. Not even the Maricopa County Stadium District, which will build and own the stadium, saw the projections until last week, when the report was unveiled during a court hearing.
Colangelo's March 24 offering statement presents a far rosier financial picture of the baseball team and stadium operations than the projection given to supervisors a year earlier.
Rather than losing money the first year, Colangelo's baseball team and stadium operations would clear $12.9 million--an earnings estimate 35 times greater than the Welle report presented to supervisors. The partnership is projected to accumulate $45 million in profits after only six years of play.
What changed in the past year to cause such a dramatic swing in earnings estimates? Ticket-sales receipts are now projected to be much higher, while player salaries have declined.
In the prospectus, Colangelo estimates the team will attract 3.2 million fans and ring up $40 million in ticket sales ($12.50 average ticket) in the first year, up from the Welle report's projection of $29 million. Projected player salaries, meanwhile, have fallen from the $26 million estimate in the Welle report to $20 million in the prospectus.
The drop in salaries clearly reflects the team's goal to avoid signing big-name stars who come with hefty salaries.
"The team's intention [is] to build the team with younger players, as opposed to signing expensive free agents," the offering statement says.
More important, the dramatic increase in earnings projected by Colangelo's group raises serious questions over whether the stadium could have been privately financed. It is a question most county supervisors don't want to address. Only Supervisor Tom Rawles, who voted against the stadium sales tax, returned calls seeking comment. Colangelo did not return a phone call.
Rawles says supervisors were never given any indication in 1994 that Colangelo's investment group would generate the profits now being projected.
"The margins for baseball don't seem to be anywhere near as thin as we were led to believe," Rawles says.
The healthy profits projected to flow to investors further underscores the raw deal taxpayers got on the stadium, he says. The county will receive about a $2.5 million annual return on its $238 million stadium investment, or about 1 percent.
"This is what I call a criminally pitiful rate of return for a normal business investment," Rawles says.
But other county officials are soft-pedaling the miraculous change in Colangelo's economic forecast, saying the county never intended to make a profit from building the stadium. Instead, they say, the supervisors' primary concern was to make sure the county would be protected from any losses from the operation and maintenance of the stadium once it is built.
"We were trying to structure this deal so that once the tax goes off, that's it, period," says Eric Anderson, a consultant paid by the Maricopa County Stadium District to oversee the county's financial arrangements with Colangelo's group.
Another county official says Colangelo's higher earnings forecast is welcome news because it means the stadium will serve as a magnet to attract people downtown. "If he's right, that makes the reason for putting that stadium where it's at a stronger reason, not a weaker reason," the county official familiar with the stadium negotiations says. "If there is a pocket to be lined, it's not just Colangelo's."
How true. Another notable beneficiary of Colangelo's stadium deal will be John Teets, chairman of Phoenix-based Dial Corporation.
Teets joins Colangelo and Phoenix real estate developer Eddie Lynch as general partners of AZPB Limited Partnership. AZPB is the group that will own the baseball team and operate the stadium. The three general partners will receive the guaranteed $2 million annual management fee. Colangelo controls 80 percent of the general partnership, while Lynch and Teets split the remaining 20 percent.
Teets not only stands to benefit directly from his role on the management team; his company, Dial Corporation, also will receive exclusive concession rights in the stadium.
Restaura, a Dial subsidiary, will retain 71 percent of all concession profits, which are estimated to be $25 million the first year. The baseball team will keep the balance of the concession net.
In exchange for the exclusive concession sales agreement, Restaura will spend about $24.5 million to build out and equip stadium concession space.
Just as Teets has made sure Dial Corporation gets a healthy piece of the action, Colangelo has kept the Phoenix Suns in the baseball game. While all other limited investors must pay at least $5 million to buy a share in the Diamondbacks, the Suns bought their share for half price.
In addition, the Suns will get back all the $8 million the team has spent since 1993 to acquire a baseball franchise and get the stadium built. And, the Suns will receive a one-time $250,000 payment from the baseball team's new investors. The offering statement doesn't say what the quarter-million-dollar payment is for.
Phoenix Newspapers Inc., which publishes the Arizona Republic, Phoenix Gazette and Arizona Business Gazette, is protecting its investment, as well.
Top R&G officials were certain to have had access to the team's financial prospectus showing the partnership making $12.9 million the first year. But the R&G never published the crucial profit information until it was divulged in condemnation hearings last week. Only then did the Republic write stories about the baseball team's projected profits. The stories never mentioned the dubious profit projections Colangelo gave the Board of Supervisors a year ago.
Investors will not only profit from side deals. The offering shows the partners will earn 5 percent on their investment beginning the first year of play. The $12.9 million profit comes after the team has paid partners $6 million in dividends.
And what about taxpayers? What do they get for their $238 million contribution?
The opportunity to go to a baseball game and pay an average of $12.50 a ticket, plus an estimated $7.75 per person on concessions and $7 on parking. Expenses paid by fans, by the way, are projected to increase 5 percent each year.
The stadium district will receive about $2.5 million a year from Colangelo in rent and other income. But the district must pay $1.5 million a year out of this to cover interest on a $15 million bond it will sell to help finance construction of the stadium. In addition, the district faces the possibility of shelling out up to $15 million to cover future repairs and upgrades to the stadium.
The county's deal with Colangelo has angered several taxpayer groups and conservative political parties. Ernie Hancock, a Phoenix Libertarian, has two lawsuits pending seeking the right to circulate a citizen initiative to repeal the creation of the Maricopa County Stadium District by county supervisors.
Hancock's initiative was thwarted in March when county Court Clerk Fran McCarroll refused to accept Hancock's application to circulate petitions. Hancock filed suit, claiming McCarroll violated his constitutional right to petition the government and that the stadium district is a legislative body and subject to citizen's initiative.
The Maricopa County Attorney's Office rejects Hancock's arguments, saying the stadium district is not subject to citizen petition even though it has the power to levy taxes. Therefore, the county says, McCarroll was right to reject Hancock's petition application.
Hancock is livid over the county's refusal even to let him begin circulating petitions.
"This is a blueprint to revolution," he says.
The latest news on the profits Colangelo's partnership expects to generate leaves Hancock predicting trouble on the horizon.

"Do you think this stadium is going to be built without any incident?" Hancock asks.
He quickly adds that he does not advocate violence, and has no knowledge of any threats to the stadium project. However, he says, government officials are vastly underestimating the public's anger over the stadium deal.
"No one understands how bad this is getting," Hancock says. "But they are going to.

About Special Events & Filming
The City of San Diego Special Events & Filming Department seeks to enhance the vitality, quality, and economic prosperity of San Diego through the support of special events and filming in San Diego. Within the Department there are two distinct programs; the Special Events Program and the Film Program. Both programs have dedicated staff that support the unique needs of each industry. Together, these programs serve to foster the role special events and filming play in San Diego.
Civic Engagement
Special Events & Filming Department team members are actively involved in the community and understand the significant role events and filming play in San Diego. Community festivals add to the spirit of our neighborhoods and provide an opportunity for residents, local artisans, performers, merchants, and City employees such as neighborhood police officers to interact with one another. Athletic and cultural events strategically located in key business districts provide marketing opportunities and bring new patrons to businesses. Events of national and international stature and seeing our neighborhoods on the silver screen create millions of dollars of economic impact, instill civic pride, and serve as long-term economic development tools for San Diego.
The Department is also responsible for the management of Balboa Park December Nights, one of the nation's premier holiday festivals and San Diego's largest free community festival. Each year, on the first Friday and Saturday of December, more than 300,000 people participate in San Diego favorite kick-off to the holiday season; celebrating the beauty, splendor and magic of Balboa Park.
Economic Development Initiatives
Working closely with visitor industry partners such as the San Diego Tourism Authority, San Diego Tourism Marketing District, San Diego Convention Center Corporation, California Film Commission, and local film industry leaders, the Special Events & Filming Department is actively involved in seeking and submitting proposals to bring major events and film productions to San Diego. These events and productions bring hundreds of millions of dollars in economic impact along with extensive worldwide media exposure to the San Diego region each year.
Major Event and Film Support Services
Once a major special event or film production is secured, the Department provides support services to key entities such as the event organizer, location scout, producer, or host committee, business, and residential community, as well as city departments to ensure the success of the activity. The scope of support services necessary to ensure success of these types of activities may range from the initiation of economic development, media and community outreach programs, to the establishment of protocols to ensure regulatory and public safety oversight.
Examples of such major national and international events and filming that have been, or will soon occur, in San Diego include the Major League Baseball's All-Star Game, Farmer's Insurance Open, Rock 'n' Roll Marathon, Comic-Con International, the Poinsettia and Holiday Bowl Games, U.S. Open Championship of Golf, Super Bowl XXXII, the FOX Entertainment's scripted pilot, "Pitch," "Hail Caesar!," and numerous independent films, shorts, commercials, and print campaigns.
These events, and others, contribute significantly to San Diego's economy through the generation of Transit Occupancy Tax (TOT), sales tax, and other direct and indirect spending. Moreover, San Diego receives long-term branding and economic development benefits derived from the significant national and international media exposure brought to the region by these events and film productions.
Special Event Permitting
The Special Events Program spearheads the permit process for special events that take place on public property Through the Department's permitting process, an event organizer can work with departments and divisions from more than forty City, County, State, Federal and other governmental agencies involved in the planning, permit review process, regulatory oversight, and on-site management of special events. For more information, visit our Special Events page
The Special Events Program also provides leadership the Special Events Management Team and serves as a conduit between event applicants and the dozens of City departments, divisions, programs and other public agencies that may have regulatory or public safety oversight of an event. The goal of the team is to provide a unified customer service experience for event organizers and the community, increase public safety at events, and reduce liability to the City of San Diego.
Film Production Registration and Coordination
In 2016, with the support of the Mayor and City Council, the Special Events & Filming Department identified an immediate opportunity to provide resources to the film industry as a whole, while supporting the region's skilled professionals and support services. By developing and implementing a comprehensive suite of online film program services, the City is able to to provide more resources for production and location services, incentives, and tools to attract filming productions to the San Diego region. Establishing a more robust film program and website will position San Diego at the forefront of the paradigm shift towards augmenting film office capabilities with online technologies.
Through the Film Program, productions can work closely with City staff to meet the unique needs associated with filming. For more information, visit our Filming page.

The most prominent open-access biomedical research publisher—that is, the Public Library of Science (PLoS)—has launched an "experimental" site for posting raw preprints of papers on hot topics. PLoS Currents (Beta) debuted today with a set of papers on influenza. Although the four papers don't break much new ground, the contributors include top virologists Peter Palese and Edward Holmes, who will also screen submissions for subsequent influenza posts. (Other themes for future Currents will have appropriate high-level screeners.)
Google appears to be hosting the site, and the National Institutes of Health has set up a new archive for the papers and other "rapid research notes" submitted through publishers. In a summary of the project , PLoS chair and co-founder Harold Varmus explains that the expectation is that the papers will later be published in peer reviewed journals. Varmus proposed an archive of unreviewed papers 10 years ago when he was director of NIH, but it got shot down.

|May 2013

|Holistic and Community Development
|Prescott, AZ
From the moment Angelica completed her Wilderness Orientation in Fall 2011 she knew something had to be changed about the way Orientation was marketed, designed and carried out so that it would better reflect the Prescott College mission statement and philosophy, and uphold all aspects of the PC motto.
For her senior project, Angelica explored the history of Adventure Education, and Education to examine how they fit into the creation of the Wilderness Orientation. From there, Angelica was able to establish that Orientation is the most significant piece of the Prescott College journey because it can greatly influence a student's impression of and loyalty to the college. Because Orientation is a student's first introduction to and impression of the college, it is important to make this experience one that is inclusive, fun, and mindful of everyone's needs. Angelica set out to accomplish three main goals: 1) Examine and analyze the existing Wilderness Orientation design and curriculum and work to enhance this program and the ways in which the leaders are chosen, 2) To design and implement a Curriculum Planning Workshop for future Orientation leaders, and 3) To design a new Orientation program, one that would highlight Land, Identity and Social Justice. The culmination of her senior project is the development of the Curriculum Planning Workshop which would give future Orientation leaders a hand in creating an inclusive, interdisciplinary, respectful and non-violent curriculum that reflects the needs and desires of the community well.
Angelica has worked diligently with a number of faculty, students and staff to ensure a diversity of input, opinions and experiences. Angelica will present her findings at the Baccalaureate Ceremony. She hopes that the Prescott College community will receive the information well and will work towards fully integrating the Mission and Philosophy of Prescott College, as well as its Social Justice element so as to become an institution that truly reflects its values.

Tasha the Amazon - Let It Go
We all know that the ladies are not the most well-represented group in hip-hop. While the female-to-male ratio is a little lopsided, there is definitely a growing number of females rockin' the mic. Well, you can add Booth newcomer Tasha the Amazon to that list. She may be a girl, but on Let It Go she rocks the mic just as well (if not better) than her male counterparts. Setting the mood on this brash cut, beat crew Bass & Bakery (made up of Tasha and Danthrax) cook up an aggressive, frenzied beat with a serious kick. Tasha comes with bars to match the instrumental's aggressive vibe, throwing lyrical haymakers in a stalwart, hard-hitting flow. She even ties the record together with a stellar sung hook. Currently getting the visual treatment, Let It Go can be found on Tasha's FiDiYootDem LP, available for free download on Audiomack as of November.
