Where might baseball's free agents end up?
Carl Crawford to the Angels. Rafael Soriano to the Angels, too. Carlos Pena to the Nationals. Joaquin Benoit to the Yankees. And the biggest fish of all -- Cliff Lee -- to the Yankees, as well. Those are the predictions for free agency from Sports Illustrated baseball writer Jon Heyman. However you slice it, it doesn't sound good for the Rays, especially if Benoit and Lee end up with the Rays' AL East rivals. Click here to see Heyman's predictions of where the top free agents will end up. Unfortunately, none will end up in Tampa Bay. One interesting name on the list is former Ray Aubrey Huff. He actually would fit in nicely as Pena's replacement at first base, but it's doubtful the Rays have the kind of dough to land Huff. Heyman predicts he will re-sign with the Giants.

Sad news today, dear readers: Michael Gough has passed away at the age of 93. The English character actor appeared in over 150 films and won a Tony for his lead performance in 1979's Bedroom Farce, but to most of us he was best known as Alfred Pennyworth in Tim Burton and Joel Schumacher's Batman franchise. A dignified presence in practical every performance, his bemused butler taught an entire generation that Vichyssoise is cold, damn it, and that MacGregor's Syndrome is not an illness to be taken lightly. Hollywood Reporter had the very unfortunate story. No cause of death was listed, although he had been in ailing health for the last year.
But despite his notable presence in the Batman movies, Gough had a great and varied career dating back to the 1946 TV movie Androcles and the Lion. For the next 70 years Gough would appear in such notable works as Anna Karenina, The Boys from Brazil, Dr. Who, Top Secret! and Out of Africa. But it was his appearances in horror classics like Trog, Black Zoo, Dr. Terror's House of Horrors and of course The Horror of Dracula that made Tim Burton an avid fan, casting him in Batman, Batman Returns, Sleepy Hollow, The Corpse Bride and Alice in Wonderland, and making Gough a familiar face to audiences around the world.
Michael Gough was an excellent character actor and, for Batman fans everywhere, an old friend. He will be missed.

how did everyones jeep handle in the snow we got?
It's a Jeep! On my morning commute, I encountered too many turtles migrating in the left lane. When space permitted, I simply moved over to the unplowed HOV lane and passed their slow *****. Got to work on time.
I love my Jeep!
haha i know the feeling just today a snow plow put close to a foot of snow blocking the on ramp... for a car, everyone stopped while i drove right through it!
gotta love the jeeps
No snow for us in Roch. :mad:
im sorry to hear that, im finding lots of unplowed areas to try that 4wd out finally, first winter with the jeep so i wanna see how it handles
thank you. its mostly melted now, and i always drive responible, its only when i find unplowed parking lots or back roads.
That snow was a gift from the gods. I found a nice back road that hadn't seen a plow all night. I think my Jeep got an erection. CR 75 from St Cloud to Monticello never gets plowed until about midday following a storm. It was awesome. That had to be the best powder to plow since the snow storm last march in 2011.
Haha next snow fall I might go seek that road out! Glad you had fun hah
It was a blast. I even got fish a Chevy colorado out of some muck. Poor little chevy. Now that the snow is gone, bring on the mud.

Shares in Spotless Group are being offered in the institutional bookbuild at a fixed price of $1.60 with the deal to close at 11am Sydney time, according to an email sent to clients on Wednesday morning.
Spotless and its bankers (Citigroup, Deutsche Bank and UBS) have been seeking to raise up to $1.15 billion at $1.60 to $1.85 a share as part of the company's $1 billion equity raising and ASX listing.
It is believed overseas institutions have accounted for much of the interest with domestic fund managers largely steering clear.
The deal values the company at 7.9 times to 8.5 times forecast earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortisation, on an enterprise value to EBITDA basis.
Spotless's owner, private equity firm Pacific Equity Partners, argues it is about the same multiple that it paid to take the business private in 2012. PEP says that deal valued Spotless at $1.2 billion, which was 8.6-times Spotless's $139.6 million EBITDA for the year to June 30, 2012 (as revealed in the company's recent prospectus).

State Capitalism: 73% of New Jobs Created in Last 5 Months are in Government
State Capitalism: 73% of New Jobs Created in Last 5 Months are in Government
The United States government is propping up the dismal labor market by simply absorbing workers into its ranks. As CNS News reports, 73.3% of new civilian jobs in the last five months are due to government hiring:
In the same five-month period since June, the number of people employed by government increased by 621,000 to 20,559,000. These 621,000 new government jobs created in the last five months equal 73.3 percent of the 847,000 new jobs created overall.
Elsewhere on the employment front, the mainstream media are doing cartwheels over news that the unemployment rate ticked down from 7.9% in October to 7.7% in November. The celebration comes as 540,000 dropped out of the workforce, and the labor force participation rate dropped to 63.6%. This is slightly up from the thirty-year low of 63.5% in September.
The 7.7% figure that is being heralded by the media is not seasonally adjusted; excluding the temporary hires for the holiday retail season, the unemployment figure rises to 8.3%. The underemployment rate, which reflects those who have been hired part-time, but would actually like to work full-time, climbed to 9.4% in November from 8.9% in October.
This underemployment figure is destined to grow, as worker hours are being slashed to under 30-hours, which is the threshold where Obamacare healthcare coverage mandate for employers with more than 50 full-time workers kicks in.
In related news, the unemployment rate for civilian government workers dropped from 4.2 percent in October to 3.8 percent in November. The unemployment rate for government workers in July was 5.7 percent, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics.
As Labor Secretary, Hilda Solis has made it clear that she believes it is a role of the government to take money from the rich and to use that "revenue" to subsidize social services. According toDiscovertheNetworks:
On April 5, 2012, Solis delivered a speech at Al Sharpton's National Action Network, where she stated that imposing higher taxes on the wealthy was justified: "It's about fairness," she said. "It's about fairness in the workplace; it's about fairness in education; and it's about fairness in terms of what services are provided by government.... [T]hose that can afford it, the billionaires and millionaires ... want to pay more because they know it's their obligation!"
As socialism from above continues to be popular on the American left, people are going to learn the hard way that there are consequences for letting the state run their lives. One of those consequences is that an economy that is founded on private property, voluntary exchange, and entrepreneurial risk will crumble if re-placed on a foundation of government coercion, taxation, and unlimited debt.
Fundamental transformation is not as glamorous as it sounds; especially in one of the most prosperous, upwardly mobile, and complex societies in the world.
Quoting _Kissy_:
Corporations/companies aren't hiring. People need a paycheck. A job is a job.
We need fewer government jobs, not more. Could save so much money just by making government smaller!
Quoting gsprofval:
We need fewer government jobs, not more. Could save so much money just by making government smaller!
FYI teachers, police, firefighters, soldiers, etc. are already being cut even though those are not the cuts needed. How about cut out all of obama's stupid cabinets, commissions, etc. Those are NOT needed, but all those people earn big bucks.
Quoting Erinelizz:
We need fewer teachers, police, firefighters, soldiers, air traffic controllers, DoT workers? If you say so. We have already cut government workers to record low levels, adding to our unemployment rate, so I'm glad to see that we're adding employees again.
Quoting gsprofval:
We need fewer government jobs, not more. Could save so much money just by making government smaller!
118,000 Jobs Created in Nov.
The payroll-processing firm ADP reported that 118,000 private-sector jobs were created in November—but estimated that 86,000 were lost due to Hurricane Sandy. The firm, which releases a monthly jobs report the same week as the Labor Department, recently revamped its methodology to more closely fit the final, official numbers. Despite adding the new jobs, the report wasn't all rosy: Hurricane Sandy hit the manufacturing, retail, and leisure and hospitality sectors particularly hard, the report said.
I'm not sure how the author of the OP came to that conclusion, but it sure doesn't seem to be supported by the actual reports.
Almost every sector of government job growth has reduced in number, other than state, mostly in education.

After much debate, New York State lawmakers finally passed a $132.5 billion budget last week, but not before throwing out a tax proposal that sought to give some relief to burdened tobacconists by capping the excise taxes on a single cigar to a dollar.
The $1 tax cap was included in the Senate version of the budget, but failed to garner support in the state Assembly.
The lobbying effort for the tax cap was heavy, with the Cigar Rights of America, the International Premium Cigars & Pipe Retailers, the Cigar Association of America and the state-level retailer association all involved.
These organizations had fought to provide some relief for the states' tobacconists who have had to shoulder one of the highest taxes on cigars in the United States—75 percent of the wholesale cost of a cigar—since it was raised last year.
Cigars are typically sold for twice the wholesale price. This means that a cigar with a $6 suggested retail price has a wholesale price of $3, and thus carries a state tax of $2.25 in New York.

Deputies said they received a call about the robbery about 3:30 a.m. at the Ruskin Inn, 3113 College Ave. E. The 32-year-old clerk said she was sitting in the lobby when she received a call from an unidentified male who said he couldn't sleep because of excessive noise outside his hotel room. The clerk told deputies she was confronted by an armed man when she opened the door to the hotel pool area.She told deputies the gunman forced her outside and told her to walk toward a wooded area near the hotel. As she was walking, she heard gunshots and was told to lie down on the ground, deputies said. A bullet grazed her head during the shooting, deputies said. The clerk told deputies she saw the gunman a short time later walk to the front of the hotel and leave with money. She called 911 and was transported to Tampa General Hospital for treatment. The suspect was said to be between 5 feet 10 inches and 6 feet tall, with a medium build. He was wearing a black mesh cloth over the bottom part of his face, a black hoodie, blue jeans and black gloves. Anyone with information was asked to call the Hillsborough County Sheriff's Office at (813) 247-8200.

Grohl added that McCartney was "just the sweetest, nicest, most awesome person."
McCartney, Grohl and his former Nirvana bandmates, Krist Novoselic and Pat Smear, performed the song twice in 2012: once at the 12.12.12 Concert at New York's Madison Square Garden and then three days later on Saturday Night Live.
"Cut Me Some Slack" is from Sound City — Real to Reel, the soundtrack to Grohl's new documentary about Sound City studios in southern California, where several classic albums, including Fleetwood Mac's Rumours and Nirvana's Nevermind, were recorded. You can hear the studio version of the song below.
Eight months later, Grohl asked McCartney if he would play the track at the 12-12-12 gig. "You have to understand, one of the great things about playing with Paul McCartney or playing with Neil Young is that that generation of musicians, they cherish and respect and value the practice of just going into a room and coming up with something and jamming and making it a song," Grohl said. "There's not like seven songwriters and seven producers and digital technology or whatever. It's like people getting in a room."
The Sound City soundtrack also features Grohl's collaboration with Skipknot's Corey Taylor, "From Can To Can't," which we posted yesterday. You can hear it here.
Grohl's Sound City Players will perform at the film's January 18 premiere at the Sundance Film Festival.
The new band features Fleetwood Mac's Stevie Nicks, Creedence Clearwater Revival's John Fogerty, Foo Fighters' Taylor Hawkins, Nate Mendel and Chris Shiflett, Alain Johannes, Chris Goss, Cheap Trick's Nielsen, Rage Against the Machine drummer Brad Wilk and others.

Hello, This is Captain John Leech. Had Mike out fishing with me today and we had a pretty good day, so I'm going to let Mike tell you about his fishing. "We had a lot of Bass today one around 6 pounds. I thought we did really well with the weather conditions, we had strong winds almost all day and a temperature dropped. We still caught a bunch of fish and I got that real nice one that was up to 6 pounds. I couldn't ask for anything more with the conditions. The Guide was a true gentleman, he's patient and offered instructions. That's really all you could ask for plus I learned a lot today. I'll definitely want to come back, I enjoyed the experience very much!" Well that's how it goes. This is Captain John Leech, Tight Lines.
Mike tells about his 6 pound Bass experience.

Hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) involves the breathing of pure oxygen (100 percent) while in a sealed chamber that has been pressurized at 1 1/2 to 3 times normal atmospheric pressure.
Research has shown HBOT is effective when used in addition to conventional treatment for the prevention and treatment of some conditions that are caused or worsened by hypoxia. There is also some evidence suggesting HBOT may be helpful as an additional treatment for the soft tissue injury caused by radiation therapy when treating cancer.
While the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has approved HBOT to treat decompression sickness, gangrene, brain abscess, and injuries in which tissues are not getting enough oxygen, it is commonly used in China, and even Europe for far beyond conditions, including Neurodegenerative Disorders such as MS, Alzheimer, ALS, Lyme disease, Immune enhancement, Stroke, Diabetes, cerebral palsy, sport injuries, Autism, muscular dystrophy and many types of Cancer either routinely or as experimental therapy with some VERY promising results.
What does it involve?
HBOT can be done in single-person chambers or chambers that can hold more than a dozen people at a time. A single-person chamber, or monoplace, consists of a clear plastic tube about seven feet long. The patient lies on a padded table that slides into the tube. He or she can see the surroundings and can communicate with the health care provider anytime needed.
The chamber is gradually pressurized with pure oxygen. Patients are asked to relax and breathe normally during treatment. Chamber pressures typically rise to 1.3 to 3.0 times the normal atmospheric pressure. Patients may experience ear popping or mild discomfort, which usually disappears if the pressure is lowered a bit. At the end of the session, which can last from thirty minutes to an hour, the chamber slowly depressurizes. The chamber we use is fully electronic which makes it unique and very precise.
Patients are expected to report a general feeling of satisfaction along with improved energy, mobility and vision after each treatment depending on their medical condition and their course of treatment. To review the medical indications and the details of physiology of hyperbaric therapy, please review the links: Conditions and physiology of hyperbaric at the top of this page.

The Pacific Medical Center of Hope is exclusively designed to provide Integrative Care. On every patient we have found it very important to review a full picture of person, instead of just the disease.
What unfortunately most of the doctors fail in the conventional world is that they just focus on one part and forget or ignore the systemic relationship between different organs in the body, therefore they offer the treatments that eventually fail in most of the chronic diseases, with an enormously high profile of side effects. We do not recommend against any conventional treatments however, integrating and combining such treatments with natural and complimentary care, increases the effectiveness conventional treatments and lowers their side effects.
Today, America is suffering from an industrial look to medicine. Natural therapy can help the patient to tolerate the side effects of conventional medicine better and facilitate the effects without harming the patient. At the Pacific Medical Center of Hope the mainstay of therapy in natural substances that have a strong scientific background and work very well in most of the patients.

It all started with Domonic Brown asking Twitter where he could find a new best friend.
Im Looking for a pitbull pup . Can someone help me? #pitbull #dog
— Domonic Brown (@dom9brown) August 19, 2013
Now, thanks to Greene Street Animal Rescue, Brown has been united with an adorable pitbull puppy named Wreck (an homage to the 2013 season or just a happy coincidence?). Sure, it'll be a challenging time ahead, what with the puppy not being quite potty trained at a young age, and everyone in Philadelphia overreacting to it not being potty trained yet, even though it's pretty young to be potty trained in the first place. Things will only get more trying when Ruben Amaro keeps calling, telling Brown to bring the dog inside then outside then inside, and gets outraged when everyone questions if he's harming its development by doing this. But even if fans give up on this scrappy little dog, rest assured they will all forget they ever doubted it once it starts hitting home runs and the season becomes all but an academic exercise.

Have Relationship Questions? Ask a Counselor for Answers ASAP
I think he is either manipulative as you said or going way to fast. What concerns me is that he went from concerned to angry so fast. Hopefully that is not a sign of things to come. He does sound manipulative and willing to challenge you very easily with little provocation. I would worry about someone that has all of these emotions in six weeks. I think the fact that he was willing to blame you about this is a red flag. He shouldn't have to check his records to prove a point. He could have just said that he could have done that and moved on. Instead he made an argument out of something silly.
I would be careful with someone who seems so manipulative so quickly. There will be serious issues as in any relationship and he can't resort to blaming. I would consider the costs and benefits to this relationship. Decide now if he is manipulative, controlling or mistaken.
Please press accept; this is the only way I am compensated

text: Charity is not entirely free of ego-stroking, so his thinking there is a bit flawed. There are regular people behind these brands making a decent living, not just the 'evil corporations' of the world that are trying to scathe you via pricing. I'd wager that there are more people making a killing off of the lowest common denominator of product than that of luxury goods. You just don't hear it as often because the consumer is under the false impression that they're getting a better deal, simply because the price is lower overall.

Topic: Kiss FM September 6th, 2009 - Twilo 4th Anniversary from 26th Jan,2001
Mix was about 1hr, ended just before the vocal of Satoshi Tomiie's Dark Path remix of Love in Traffic. Was there ever any more released?
The sound was typically Twilo, close your eyes and imagine it bubbling out of the Phazon!
I believe the club was forced to close its doors around 4-5 months later. Did John play again before then?
Sorry, I'm new. I'm interested in formatting a bit of history on Twilo if anyone can share?

Great Dane
In the canon of angry white males produced by William Shakespeare, Hamlet is hardest to figure out. Richard III chokes on self-pity; Macbeth buries himself alive with ambition; Lear is felled by the family neglect born of his own megalomania. To identify exactly which of Hamlet's peccadilloes finally undoes him is difficult because there is a handsome buffet of defects in the Bard's dizzying study of a man gone mad from self-reflection. Hamlet's narcissism, vindictiveness, narrow-mindedness, self-indulgent emotionalism, and his appreciation of cruelty as a cathartic sport aren't just features of his personality, they're angry slashes of red paint across a blank slate.
Hamlet the character is a frustrated artist struggling to paint an accurate self-portrait in Hamlet the play. His tragic flaw is an impairment of vision; he cannot see himself in the swirling watercolors of his own crises and so attempts to use those savage colors to validate parts of himself. In pathological bereavement of his father's death, he declares his mother's new husband the target of his rage even before he knows Claudius has killed the king; in both self-hatred and hatred of her scheming father, Polonius, he rejects Ophelia with cruel relish, providing the first of two blows from men that will drive her into lunacy; and finally, he enlists his dear friend Horatio in the investigation of a murder, keeps the fellow completely ignorant, and then dies in his arms, bloody but sated with the tiny measure of fateful resolution Shakespeare offered at the play's bloody conclusion.
In other words, Hamlet is the kind of guy who takes things out on other people. He refuses to become the sum of what his enemies have done to him, yet discovers the desire that drives his daily life is the need to avenge these wrongs. The world of sin and inadequacy in the royal court that is his birthplace renders him a cipher with a title, a reactionary not in the political sense of that word, but in the personal; his identity as a young man is utterly dependent on betrayal. He keeps a finger on the racing pulse of his spirit to make sure the damned thing still works.
And race is a good word to use when discussing Kitchen Dog Theater's new production of Hamlet. Director Toni Dorfman, who helmed Kitchen Dog's superb 1993 Death and the Maiden, returns to slash more than 90 minutes' worth of dialogue off this very wordy meditation on inner violence that was written in 1601 between Julius Caesar and Othello. Each of the eight actors tackles more than one role with the exception of Yo Younger, whose sole province is the conflicted Gertrude. Dorfman and Kitchen Dog have swept the stage bare except for the occasional necessary chair or chalice, in the process presenting Hamlet like a plate of steamed fresh vegetables; to enjoy this pared-down production, you're gonna have to appreciate the taste of Shakespeare's discourse without the spice offered by so-called "director's theater." In contrast, director Janet Farrow of Dallas' Classic Theatre Company helmed a version four years ago that was chock-full of her own florid machinations, like having Hamlet become possessed by the ghost of his father and speaking the dead man's words in a hellish growl. The company succeeded, rubbing the play's raw nerves a beautiful blood red.

But what is most surprising about Kitchen Dog's production of a tragedy known for its brooding quality is what a variety of flavors actually exist in the original script. Shakespeare wrote quite a few laughs into Hamlet, and for once Dorfman and company have emphasized them here not in sacrifice to the play's funereal tensions, but as an artful respite from them. This is a Hamlet that doesn't take itself too seriously, which sounds like an oxymoron until you realize how many subtleties of tone and perspective have been smeared away by artists who bring too many preconceptions to the material. Dorfman and company seem to be tweaking this self-indulgence as they stage a hilariously overwrought The Death of Gonzago, the play within Hamlet that's supposed to reveal the treachery of Hamlet's uncle-turned-father, Claudius (Lynn Mathis, whose scowling gargoyle face can look goofy or imperious without moving a muscle). Chamblee Ferguson, who also plays a smashingly obsequious Polonius, embroiders the brief role of Gonzago with a dead-on impression of that throbbing, deep-in-the-throat lilt that has filled many a theater with the scent of footlight-fried bacon.
Any actor who confronts the challenge of playing Hamlet deserves a silent blessing from audience members before he makes his entrance into the swampy chasm of this character's private hell. Remember, the journey of Hamlet is the shedding of one emotional dependency after another, the expulsion of family, lover, and friend in a search for the source of a man's consuming discontent. Playing Hamlet is like asking a painter to create a single portrait on an endless series of fresh canvases, but taking the paper away after each stroke so the artist must provide the next appropriate touch in a field of emptiness.
Dan Day, co-founder and artistic director of Kitchen Dog Theater, trods the funhouse boards as Hamlet and never loses his balance, even in the peripatetic yearning of those blasted soliloquies about death, sleep, identity, and the nature of existence. Day is disciplined enough as an actor to tango with Dorfman and his fellow performers rather than use Hamlet's confusion as an excuse to wallow in tortured theatrics. He maintains the production's brisk tempo yet punctuates the action with a gentleness that jolts you. Is this a Hamlet who has nurtured some trickle of humanity inside but kept it from himself, the other characters, perhaps even the author?
Indeed, you're tempted for the first few scenes to complain that Day doesn't try hard enough to summon the anguished restlessness of Western theater's original anti-hero; his performance is buoyant, winged, and free of the bellows, squints, grunts, and chest-beating braggadocio that so often makes Hamlet seem like a spoiled brat. As the play progresses, Day gradually increases the volume on what has been a charming smartass undercurrent till it reaches the appropriate crescendo of despair. Some may exit the theater feeling that Day has shortchanged the Dane a certain gravity, but his nimble, dapper restraint feels like a slow sigh of sadness where some of us feared a hot blast of spleen to the face. It's a welcome substitute.
Likewise, Kitchen Dog Theater's Hamlet is a clear-eyed affirmation, not a revelation; its very sane account of classical insanity constitutes a fresh approach in a play as endlessly reinvented as this one. Maybe the most revolutionary Hamlet is the most approachable--a big-hearted fellow who poisons the unexpected strikes of his stinger with a bottomless well of heartbreak.

Okay, wow, when I started this blog; Facebook wasn't filled with my high school friends, Reddit wasn't filled with my wrath and Twitter wasn't filled with my anonymous secrets (not really anonymous, guess what my handle is). I did, however, have an active and bright and glittery and kind of loud Myspace account.
I had a devil of a time finding my own log in requirements for this creaky old blog but as much as today's social networks have rendered my blog as outdated as FM radio, I have to say, I'm pretty nostalgic about the whole thing. I never thought I'd be grandfathered into anything with a six year time investment but I think it safe to say, I'm an old timer in the world of blogs.
I started this rant before my husband started O a th Ke epers (no sense making it searchable), before Ron Paul announced his bid the first time around (the republican bid anyway). My now six year girl was just born and since then I have had a little boy (now 3) and another beautiful little girl who was stillborn in March.
Time changes us all and I'm, frankly, not as witty as I used to be and I'm quite a bit more jaded.
I'm also a bit more prone to self censoring now that I know I'm just a click away from family and friends and just a few clicks away from hostile media (thanks to O.K.).
So being the cautious sort that I am; don't expect me to talk about the lap dance I once gave to Matt Leblanc or the day that I learned Judge Reinhold had a fascination for dirty talk (and I mean dirty).
I mean that would be like saying fuck you to the liberal forums that sometimes comb and quote my blog.
I can't spend my whole life as the zany zebra baby of the family.
I have been slowed down by age and responsibility; my most recent claim to fame is that a bit part vampire from the not-yet-released Breaking Dawn II sent me a direct message on Twitter and if that is not boring enough, it was in response to my Tweet regarding Wikileaks.
Hopefully, my caustic wit will return so we can all discuss our adopted son Rand Paul and try to figure out where we all went wrong and if our collective tough love program can straighten him out before it's too late.
So now I sign off-with the same sort of sentimental clinginess that I clutch onto to my Grease II and Olivia Newton-John records; I still hold this blog dear and cross-my-heart that I will update.

Citation: Staub, J.E., Sun, Z., Chung, S., Lower, R.L. 2007. Colinearity among genetic linkage maps in cucumber. HortScience. 40:20-27. Interpretive Summary: It is important for cucumber breeders to know the location of genes (inherited units that cause trait expression) on chromosomes (an array of genes) in order to increase breeding efficiency and effectiveness. Cucumber breeders have constructed gene maps (groups of chromosomes depicting the organization of the genetic structure of an organism) in the last 15 years. These maps have been created using different genetic material (parents used in crossing to create maps) and techniques (crossing schemes between parents to make hybrids) and thus it has been difficult to compare them to determine if genes from one map are the same and in the same position (in the array of genes on chromosomes) on chromosomes. Thus, a project was designed to compare the genetic maps that have been constructed in cucumber in order to examine the position of genes on chromosomes. Results indicate that genes on chromosomes in the maps examined are in the same position. This is important because now plant breeders can use information on the map interchangeably. This allows the plant breeder or geneticist flexibility in creating lines and hybrids (line crossed with a line) to test for improved yield and quality traits. This increases the efficiency and effectiveness of plant breeders for the development of improved cucumber hybrids that is needed in commercial production. This allows new, unique hybrids to be marketed rapidly so that the U.S. grower can be more competitive in the global market place to insure sustained economical advantage of U.S. agriculture.
Technical Abstract: Hybrid development in cucumber (Cucumis sativus L. var. sativus; 2n = 2x = 14) involves the ubiquitous use of closely related (3-8% polymorphism) elite lines. Given this, and the existence of only few relatively unsaturated genetic maps, a molecular marker map position assessment was performed to appraise the relative degree of map colinearity in this species. The position of random amplified polymorphic DNAs (RAPD), sequenced characterized amplified regions (SCARs), simple sequence repeat (SSR), restriction fragment length polymorphisms (RFLP), and fluorescent amplified fragment length polymorphism (fAFLP) markers were compared in maps constructed from four diverse populations. Maps by Fazio et al. (2003; narrow-based processing type; C. s. var. sativus; ~12% polymorphism), Bradeen et al. [2001; narrow (C. s. var. sativus; ~8% polymorphism) - and broad (C. s. var. sativus x C. s. var. hardwickii (R.) Alef.; ~12%)-based ], and a narrow-based map in processing cucumber constructed from a line 2A x Gy8 mating (C. s. var. sativus; ~7% polymorphism) were compared. In seven linkage groups (LG), 19 [i.e., fAFLP (17), SSR (1), and RAPD (1)], 43 [fAFLP (11), SCAR (13), RAPD (17), little leaf (ll) and determinate (de)], 18 [fAFLP (2), RFLP (9), RAPD (6), and downy mildew (dm)], and 3 [fAFLP (1), RAPD (2), and gynoecious (F)] markers were found to be common between the 2A x Gy8 map and that of Fazio et al. (2003a), Fazio et al. (2003a) and Bradeen et al. (2001; narrow-based), Bradeen et al. (2001) narrow- and broad-based, and Bradeen et al. (2001; broad-based) and Fazio et al. (2003a), respectively. Three markers (fAFLP E14M62-214, and SCAR/RAPD AA9B and BC388) were found to be common between maps of Fazio et al. (2003) and Bradeen et al. (2001). Common markers in LG 1 between the 2A x Gy8, Fazio et al. (2003), and Bradeen et al. (2001;broad-based) maps were used as anchor markers for map position comparisons of yield component quantitative trait loci (QTL). The relative order of anchor markers in each of six linkage groups (LG1, 2, 4-7) that possessed two or more anchor markers within each group was collinear. Commonalities in the position of some yield component QTL exist in LG1 of the maps examined, and general synteny among these maps indicates the potential value of map merging to increase cucumber map saturation for universal application to breeding.

Well, I never thought I would be starting a thread like this one. However, yesterday I miscarried. I had bleeding all weekend and I think I just knew that the pregnancy was over, so I'm finding that I had a little preparation, mentally, and I'm coping pretty well, considering the circumstances. DH, on the other hand, says it feels like "being punched in the gut" so I feel bad for him. The poor partner, all he can do thru pregnancy, delivery, and bad news like this, is to be a bystander and try to be supportive. That can't be easy. Anyhow, the u/s showed that the m/c was complete so I'm relieved that a d&c is not necessary. I appreciate having been a part of this DDC for a while. Don't worry, I'll be back in a new DDC in a few months, I'm sure of that. Best wishes to all of you!
Oh, Rosie, I'm so sorry to hear that. I'll keep you and your family in my prayers.
I'm so sorry. It sounds like you are in a good place, continue to take good care of yourself and your family.
So Sorry! I am glad that you are thinking positive!
I'm so sorry for your loss, and for your DH too. SO many times, their grief is NEVER acknowledged by those around you, like they have no feelings. That was my DH's experience; a coworker gave him a card the last time, and it was a huge healing thing for him to know this person actually cared.
<<hugs>> to you all..... will you please pop in and let us know if you end up on another DDC??
I'm so sorry for your loss. Tell your DH we are all thinking of him as well. It must be really hard for him. Like songbird said, DH's often get overlooked during times like this. Take good care of yourself
I'm so sorry for your loss.
I'm very sorry for your loss. I'm glad to hear you're coping well. Best of luck to you!
i'm so sorry for you and your dh glad you don't have to have a d&c though.
Oh Honey and one for your husband
I am so sorry to hear the bad news... I'll be looking for you name in the future due date clubs... take good care of youself.
I'm so sorry to hear your news. Sending love to you and your DH! xo
Thanks for your support, everyone. It is amazing to me that complete strangers can reach out and be so caring. I appreciate it.
I'm very sorry
Good luck, and I hope I will be joining you on another DDB soon too
Hugs to you mama, and good luck trying again.
sorry you are going through this for you and your dh.
hope you are in another ddc soon
I am sorry *hugs*
Sending you and your dh love
I'm so sorry... sending you and dh our love
As promised, I'm here to let you know that I'm back in another DDC!!!! I'm due Jan. 20th. I'm about 11.5 weeks along and we heard the h/b last week, so hopefully we are in the clear and will have smooth sailing here on out. My congrats to those of you with new babies, my labor vibes to those of you still waiting to deliver, and my hugs to those of you who are recovering after a loss.
Congratulations! I wish you the best of luck!
i got chills reading this happy update...
congrats and warm loving vibes to you and your growing babe
Congrats!! Thanks so much for coming back to let us know. Very best wishes to you.
yay! congrats!
ow fantastic! im really happy for you!

So much for the hand-wringing and uncertainty. Lightning center Steven Stamkos admitted to both after his longtime right wing, Marty St. Louis, was switched to Vinny Lecavalier's line in hopes of getting the captain going. St. Louis had meant so much to Stamkos' development as a rookie last season, and the two hadn't missed a beat this season. But three games into the experiment — the next is today against the Devils at the St. Pete Times Forum — no worries. Stamkos has five goals in those games, six in his past four. "It's great playing with Marty," Stamkos said. "You always want to play with a guy like that. But it's nice to play well without him and prove you can be a good player even when you're not with him."
Good? Stamkos, 19, has been better than that. The No. 1 overall draft pick of 2008 has a team-best nine goals, and his 14 points are tied for the top spot with St. Louis.
His five power-play goals entered Friday tied for the league lead, and he was ninth with a 58.1 faceoff winning percentage.
Good? The center lately has been Tampa Bay's best.
"He's one of the bright young stars of this league," said Canadian and U.S. TV analyst and former Whalers coach Pierre McGuire, who watched Stamkos get two goals and an assist in Thursday's 5-2 victory over the Senators.
"He's so much quicker, and his legs have more power. He was always good. Now he's about to take it to the next level."
"He's proving to himself he can have success in this league, and that's the biggest battle," St. Louis said. "You gain confidence, you prove yourself first and foremost, and have the ability to be a game-breaker, which is what he is."
Underused as a rookie by his first coach, Barry Melrose, Stamkos found life under new coach Rick Tocchet.
There was the crash physical fitness program with strength coach Chuck Lobe, video sessions with assistant coach Wes Walz and Tocchet's willingness to play Stamkos more minutes and pair him with St. Louis.
The result: Stamkos scored a team rookie record 23 goals last season, 19 in his final 39 games.
"The coaching staff did a great job," he said. "They really showed they cared and wanted to make me a better player. … They could have just let me be on my own and fend for myself. It's a big factor for where my game is today, because they worked to make me better."
Stamkos worked, too, training last summer, and adding about 7 pounds of muscle, with former Lightning teammate Gary Roberts, whose in-house gym is a quick drive from Stamkos' family home in Unionville, Ontario.
"You're comfortable on the ice," said Stamkos, 6 feet 1, 196 pounds. "You're checking guys, you're trying to create chances where you can go, and it starts from being better defensively. I've gotten a lot quicker and stronger, and I can win battles down low and win faceoffs."
Add speed that gets him to the puck first, a zippy wrist shot and a linemate in left wing Ryan Malone who feeds him the puck and provides muscle down low, and you have, as Tocchet said, "a hell of a hockey player."
"He's more confident with the puck," Malone said. "He's being patient and letting it all unfold in front of him, and he's making the right decisions out there."
Such as to push his game when St. Louis was replaced by Steve Downie and now Alex Tanguay.
"You have to realize, Marty is first to the puck in the corners," Stamkos said. "Now you have to get in there and get some pucks and create chances for yourself."
"To me, that's what a leader is," Tocchet said. "You might have to switch somebody around to figure things out, but to Stammer, it was a challenge.
"Is he where his potential is? No, but he's getting there. He's taken the ball and run with it."
In no uncertain terms.

Taking Care of the Little Things
It's amazing how important the little things are in a marriage. Yesterday Mick and I were playing a set of tennis together. We were playing against good two players. Throughout he kept encouraging me with, 'nice shot' or 'good pick up,' and similar comments. Meanwhile I kept encouraging him as well 'great serve.' 'Well done,' etc. The result was we both played exceptionally well. That's the difference a bit of encouragement makes on the court and in marriage. It helps you be better than you really are. Sadly, into his second set his Achilles tendon started to play up as … Continue reading

Bundesliga: Bayern beaten by Hamburg's Petric
Hamburg reclaimed top spot in the Bundesliga with a 1-0 win over Bayern Munich, who slipped down to sixth in the table.
Mladen Petric settled the contest in the 72nd minute thanks to an assist from former Bayern winger Ze Roberto. Hamburg were good value for their win, which ended Bayern's three-game winning streak at a sell-out HSV-Arena.
A late goal from Simon Rolfes earned Bayer Leverkusen a 1-0 win over Cologne and took them top prior to Hamburg's victory.
Rolfes settled a tight clash with local rivals Cologne when he picked up a pass from Tranquillo Barnetta, raced into the box and beat two defenders before firing in the winner off the post with eight minutes to play. Cologne, toothless throughout, finished with ten men after Maniche was sent off for kicking Arturo Vidal late in the game.
Schalke 04 won the big Ruhr valley derby against hosts Borussia Dortmund 1-0 thanks to a first-half strike by Jefferson Farfan to climb up to third place on 13 points.
Argentine Lucas Barrios came close for Dortmund when he forced a good save from Schalke keeper Manuel Neuer after meeting a Mats Hummels cross. Barrios was again unlucky when he saw his deflected shot hit the bar, with Neuer beaten, and bounce on the line.
Farfan struck after half an hour and against the run of play when Levan Kenia launched a quick counter-attack and found Halil Altintop on the left. He cut back and set up the Peruvian striker to slot home his third goal of the season. The visitors held off a barrage of attacks early in the second half but then could have sealed their win with big chances for Altintop and substitute Gerald Asamoah, with both firing just over the bar from close range.
Stuttgart collected just their second victory over the season, 3-0 at Eintracht Frankfurt, who finished the game with ten men and lost their first game of the campaign.
Julian Schieber scored in the 17th and 30th minutes for struggling Stuttgart before Frankfurt's Marco Russ was sent off in the 33rd. Thomas Hitzlsperger ended all doubt about the result with the visitors' third goal early in the second half.
Champions VfL Wolfsburg defeated Hanover 96 4-2 to move up to fifth, on 12 points, level with fourth-placed Werder Bremen who beat promoted Mainz 3-0 with Claudio Pizarro scoring two.

New York Weather: Series of Sunny Days Ahead
The first in a series of three sunny days starts on Monday in Greater New York, along with breezy, warm conditions typical for the first full week of May.
The cold front responsible for the tri-state area's weekend showers moves out of the region on Sunday evening, putting an end to precipitation for the next three days. An area of high pressure then slowly builds down from southern Canada through the middle of the week, helping to further dry the region. Cooler air arrives with this system, but temperatures should remain right around normal for early May.
Monday looks to be a very pleasant day, with highs in New York City nearing 70 degrees. Coastal and inland areas stay a bit cooler with highs hovering in the middle 60s.

J.A.I.L. News Journal
Los Angeles, California October 26, 2005
Bill Stegmeier, the South Dakota JIC, will be going to the Atlanta Rally
on November 11-14 and will give an update on the South Dakota J.A.I.L. Campaign. We are grateful to him and everyone who had a part
in making this Campaign possible!
Go Forward!
Following are comments from Nick Testaccio in response to our recent JNJ titled "It's the
of J.A.I.L. That Sets It Apart." Below that is Ron's response followed by Barbie's.
----- Original Message -----

How will people reconcile through JAIL that which they refuse to hold now?
I read your journals, sometimes comment on them and either receive no answer or one that is completely off the mark from what I have said.Yes Jefferson, as many of our Founding Fathers, stated that it was up to us to enforce the Constitution. The majority of the people are ill equipped, or reticent about enforcing it, as they have not the basic understanding of what the Constitution is and represents.
Today the vast majority, including the legal community, believes the Constitution to be a document that defines our rights. That has been accomplished by a reengineering of the education system. The Constitution is, of course, a document that enumerates the limited powers of the government, stating clearly only those areas to which the government may legislate.
Once again I ask you, how will the same people, who refuse to understand their original position, reconcile through JAIL that which they refuse to hold now? Do you have any understanding of the human dynamic? Do you understand that even when faced with facts, people will not believe that which is contrary to their indoctrination?
Do you understand that even when passed, the JAIL initiative will face the same reengineering from those the majority continually puts back into office? You are still playing the game as your adversary has instructed you.
(response from Ron):
Hello, Nick:
Here is the problem we face here at J.A.I.L., we are receiving so many responses that it is impossible to keep up. Some we have to just delete, others we preserve for possible future response, but often just receive so many new issues to deal with that we can never get to them. This is the negative side of a good thing. So what happens when one is so successful that they cannot deal with their success? This is where we are right now in J.A.I.L.. We have to just pick and choose what matters we can deal with, and the rest send over the dam. Yes, and matters are not getting better, but worse.
You ask,
"Once again I ask you, how will the same people, who refuse to understand their original position, reconcile through JAIL that which they refuse to hold now?"
There is a saying, Nick, that no one argues with success. As the multitudes of people rally to J.A.I.L., I figure that we just will not have time to deal with those naysayers who wish to refute that success. In other words, if the naysayers are drowned out by the noise of success, they become insignificant. We just ignore them and go on. Is there a moon shining during the full light of a hot summer day? What's the relevance? God bless you, Nick.
(from Barbie):
Nick, let me add my two cents to what Ron already said. We understand that there will always be those "who refuse to understand their original position, [will not be able to] reconcile through JAIL that which they refuse to hold now." There will always be those who just plain
to accept J.A.I.L. as a credible means of the People protecting their rights from a despotic power-- but my question is, "Is there anything better offered for the People" to break through the tyranny we are living under? If you have a better idea, let's hear it! Do you know of anything that would replace J.A.I.L.?
It's time people stop complaining and do something about the problem. Now that we have a solution ready to be passed into law, there are still people like you who insist on
complaining --
that the
won't work! It's not enough to keep complaining about the problem-- complain about the proposed solution as well!
J.A.I.L. is going forward, despite the naysayers, because if we waited until all the complainers were satisfied, J.A.I.L. would NEVER become a reality. After your question is answered, whether the answer is
is another question. There'll always be yet
Let's get the darn thing PASSED!
Then we can deal with questions like yours. Right now is
the time to keep hindering the process of going forward with J.A.I.L. This is such a vital measure to save this country from annihilation that we can't afford to ask so many question NOW. Look at what just happened to Irwin Schiff due to the tyrannical courts! Are you going to keep asking all these questions instead of doing everything you can to see that J.A.I.L. is passed? Just maybe the People can prevent more "Irwin Schiffs" from going down the tubes! (This means on
issue-- not necessarily the tax issue.
who fails to get due process of law, regardless of the issue of the case, can bring the matter to J.A.I.L.) Don't you see how critical it is? If you don't understand every jot and tittle about J.A.I.L., don't allow that to stifle this effort. GO FORWARD
anyway, at least for now. A lot of questions will be settled once J.A.I.L. is passed. Most questions will be irrelevant anyway!
Also, we understand that the vast majority of people don't understand squat about the Constitution. That doesn't mean that those that DO understand have to put everything on "hold" because of those who don't-- and probably never will. Constitutional victory will not come by the majority, but by a minority who will stand up for the People, including those who "don't understand." We want to pass J.A.I.L. for their sakes-- whether they "understand" or not. Otherwise they're going to hell in a handbasket, and those of us who do understand don't want that to happen to them-- or to us!
"..it does not require a majority to prevail, but rather an irate, tireless
minority keen to set brush fires in people's minds.." - Samuel Adams
Your closing paragraph states:
Do you understand that even when passed, the JAIL initiative will face the same reengineering from those the majority continually puts back into office? You are still playing the game as your adversary has instructed you.
Nick, first of all, J.A.I.L. is a People's measure. The
are in charge-- not anyone that is "put back into office" or in office whatsoever. That's the problem we've had-- the People have NOT been in charge as they should have been. J.A.I.L. is going to change that. To the contrary Nick, our "adversary" has
instructed Ron to create the J.A.I.L. Amendment, to lead it nationally, and to get it passed into law. Ron has been instructed by the Supreme Adversary
the "adversary."

Walkthrough (Chapter Seven) part 4
EditCastlevania: Lords of Shadow Walkthrough (Chapter Seven)
- Balcony
- Electric Laboratory
- Chromatic Observatory
EditScroll (1/1)Right off the bat in Dr. Frankestein's Electric Laboratory, you're going to be struck with a puzzle to solve. This puzzle spans the duration of the stage, and as always, a scroll accompanies it, to explain the premise. To find the scroll, simply scour the body ahead and to the right of your starting location. Just be careful not to collide with the electric beam nearby, or you'll be in for a world of pain. (And as always, you can skip this puzzle completely, though doing so will rob you of some experience you'd otherwise earn. Your choice.)
To solve the first leg of the puzzle, you need only manipulate the three switches on the ground in the room you're in so that you can proceed. However, you may be unsure as to how to do so. After all, the game simply tells you to punch the switches to activate and deactivate them. But normal, standard punches won't do the trick here. Instead, you'll need to know the Relic Power called Landslide Punch. Look in your Skills menu to see if you know this one, and if you don't already, purchase it. Then, read how to use it, and use this skill to hit the first glowing switch on the ground. This will disable the electrical currents in front of you, granting you access to both the second and third switches. Don't skip directly to the third switch, though. First, hit the second switch, and then hit the third switch. This will ultimately grant you access to the bookshelf-lined hallway ahead.
EditLight Gem (1/1)Work your way leftward through the small, stuffy hallway on the other end of the first part of the puzzle. The camera will pan through this next room, which has a far more elaborate part of the puzzle to solve. We'll get you through it, though, so no worries. For starters, work your way into this room. You'll see a lone switch accessible to you right now on the floor, so use your Landslide Punch to slam the switch. This will grant you access to the area on your left. Tucked along the wall to your left from there is a dead body, which contains this Light Gem. Grab that before continuing onward.
The next leg of the puzzle is easy enough to get through. If you explored the little golden device on the right side of the room, you would have found out that a battery is required to power said device. Thankfully, there's a battery on the left side of the room, and it's on a track. You know what that means. Punch the battery down the track towards the other end of the room. After a punch downward and over, it'll cross an electric beam, meaning you'll have to Landslide Punch the switch on the ground again, granting you access to the right side of the room once more. You can then punch the battery a couple of more times into place. This will activate another machine that will force the beams at the northeastern edge of the room to fall. You can then move on.
