text: Overview By Mayo Clinic Staff Print ClaudicationClaudicationClaudication is pain caused by too little blood flow to your legs or arms. This is usually a symptom of peripheral artery disease, in which the arteries that supply blood to your limbs are narrowed, usually because of atherosclerosis. Atherosclerosis occurs when arteries get thick and stiff due to a buildup of fatty deposits (plaques) on your artery walls. Peripheral artery disease (also called peripheral arterial disease) is a common circulatory problem in which narrowed arteries reduce blood flow to your limbs. When you develop peripheral artery disease (PAD), your extremities — usually your legs — don't receive enough blood flow to keep up with demand. This causes symptoms, most notably leg pain when walking (claudication). Peripheral artery disease is also likely to be a sign of a more widespread accumulation of fatty deposits in your arteries (atherosclerosis). This condition may be reducing blood flow to your heart and brain, as well as your legs. You often can successfully treat peripheral artery disease by quitting tobacco, exercising and eating a healthy diet.

(MIAMI) — Barely a week after his swearing in for a third term as senator, Bill Nelson has conceded defeat, tweeting, "pythons seems to be elusive in this warm weather, none caught today."
In knee-high water boots, the septuagenarian senator spent the day stomping through parts of the Everglades, wrangling up no snakes but a good deal of press. Nelson has championed the eradication of the invasive pythons from the Everglades, famously plunking down a giant snakeskin in the Senate in 2009 and claiming that there were 100,000 or more of the slithery critters.
Nelson told reporters, in his deep Florida drawl, "These pythons eat everything in the Everglades: bobcats, deer, even alligator and maybe endangered Florida panther."
"These snakes are dangerous. There was a child killed in central Florida by one of these kept as pets," he said. "The pythons don't belong here."
"Where else but in Florida do you have a U.S. senator going out to hunt an invasive exotic species that eats alligators and strangles children in their cribs?" Rick Wilson, a veteran Sunshine State Republican strategist, laughed to the Miami Herald.
Accompanied by "Alligator Ron" Bergeron, commissioner of Florida's Fish and Wildlife Commission, herpetologists, handlers and a herd of media, Nelson became the newest participant in Florida's Python Challenge 2013. The concept being, that deploying nearly 1,000 heavily armed hunters into the Everglades for a month might speed the eradication of an animal that can grow to be 17 feet or more, lay 100 eggs, and eat indigenous species with abandon.
It hasn't worked out exactly that way. So far fewer than 20 verified snakes have been caught in a full week of hunting. That's one snake per 50 hunters. According to Shawn Heflick, Florida's first licensed python hunter, catching a single python consumes 92 man hours. In fact in all of 2012, he says, only 65 pythons were caught.
"If there were 150,000 as the politicians they [pythons] would be hanging off the trees… as you see, they are clearly not," Heflick said.
Not only are the snakes elusive, they are likely much less numerous than believed, says Heflick, who estimates about 10,000 invasive pythons in southern Florida. He also says there is not a single known incident of a python attacking a human.
The state blames the infestation on irresponsible pet owners who have dumped unwanted pythons by the hundreds into Florida's swamps over the past decade. With few predators, the pythons have procreated, growing exponentially in size. However two frigid winters in 2009-10 were said to have decimated the snake population.

'Worst Call in NFL History' Video is Evidence to Support my Seething Pete Carroll Hatred
"You gotta love Pete Carroll"...No I do not. I couldn't stand him when he turned my 1996 AFC Champion New England Patriots into a disorganized and mediocre 5-11 team. I liked him even less when his USC Trojans won/shared the 2004 BCS Championship, a title that was stripped from the school in 2011 due to recruiting violations. But by that time Pete had already moved on to Seattle and is all but unscathed.

ATLANTA (CBS) -- Ann Romney, speaking to supporters at Romney's Georgia primary campaign headquarters in the Buckhead neighborhood of Atlanta on Thursday, said that Barbara Bush, the wife of President George H. W. Bush (aka. "41") and mother of President George W. Bush ("43"), brought her a "maxed out check" -- meaning the legal maximum of $2,500 per donor per candidate -- to a Romney campaign fundraiser in Houston that Mrs. Romney hosted a few days ago.
"She said this is the most important election of my lifetime," Mrs. Romney said, quoting the former first lady.
"For her to say that means a lot, and she's getting upset too, and you don't want Barbara to be mad."
The recent donation would not show up publicly until the campaign's next monthly report to the Federal Election Commission. A Romney campaign source confirmed the donation.
The elder Bushes, who live in Houston, have already endorsed Romney.
"We are headed in the wrong direction. We cannot have another four years of Barack Obama," Mrs. Romney continued. "Mitt is the guy that is going to help bring jobs and the economy back, and he is also the guy that's going to balance budgets and stop the reckless spending,"
Mrs. Romney briefly joined volunteers making phone calls to registered voters in Georgia. Both people she called told her they were voting for her husband.
The candidate plans to return to Georgia on Sunday, two days before the primary, for only his second visit to the state this year following a Feb. 8 rally in Atlanta.

WASHINGTON, D.C. — "Women of Soul: In Performance at the White House" is a PBS music special taped in the East Room of the White House, celebrating the great "foremothers" of American music, with songs expressing the struggles and achievements of women. President and Mrs. Obama will host the event on Thursday, March 6, 2014. The all-star concert will include performances by Tessanne Chin, Melissa Etheridge, Aretha Franklin, Ariana Grande, Patti LaBelle, Janelle Monáe and Jill Scott, with Greg Phillinganes as music director. (Program subject to change.) The program, part of the Emmy Award-nominated "In Performance at the White House" series, is the fifty-second production in the series' thirty-six years. This will be the first time "In Performance at the White House" features an all-female line-up. The sixty-minute television special is produced by WETA Washington, D.C., the flagship public broadcaster in the nation's capital, in association with AEG Ehrlich Ventures and The GRAMMY Museum®. "Women of Soul: In Performance at the White House" will premiere Monday, April 7 at 9 p.m. ET on PBS stations nationwide. (Check local listings.)
"Women of Soul: In Performance at the White House" will be a celebration of American women artists whose work has left an indelible and profound impact on our national musical culture, across Blues, Jazz, Soul, Rhythm and Blues and Rock and Roll. The evening will pay homage to trailblazing female artists and their memorable songs.
The concert, including President Obama's remarks, will be available for press via the White House Press Corps pool feed and streamed live on www.whitehouse.gov and www.pbs.org/whitehouse. The program will also be broadcast at a later date via the American Forces Network to American service men and women and civilians at U.S. Department of Defense locations around the world.
"WETA is pleased to join the White House in celebrating the power and legacy of the female voice," stated Sharon Percy Rockefeller, president and CEO of WETA. "Through the 'In Performance at the White House' series, public broadcasting and WETA continue to preserve and honor the diverse history of our country, which music captures so beautifully, and bring it to the national stage."
"This will be the first time that the 'In Performance at the White House' series concert will consist solely of female vocalists," said Paula A. Kerger, president and CEO of PBS. "The stories and music of women artists are an important part of our cultural history, and one we are proud to highlight as part of 'In Performance at the White House.'"
"We are pleased to support 'In Performance at the White House' and the cultural influence female singers have as storytellers of the American experience," said Patricia Harrison, president and CEO of the Corporation for Public Broadcasting. "Through public media that informs, educates, inspires and entertains, we are delighted to bring this shared part of our nation's heritage to the local communities we serve."
Educational Program with the White House
In addition to the evening concert, the morning of the concert taping the White House will host "I'm Every Woman: The History of Women in Soul," an educational workshop for 124 middle school, high school and college-level students from across the country, held in the State Dining Room. The event will be produced by The GRAMMY Museum® and led by Robert Santelli, executive director of The GRAMMY Museum® in Los Angeles. Santelli is a leading musicologist and music educator who will give the students an overview of the impact of women's music on the country, discuss important artists from throughout its history, and explore the struggles and the achievements of women in American music. Santelli will be joined by special musical guests Patti LaBelle, Melissa Etheridge and Janelle Monáe, who will share their experiences as well as answer students' questions. The White House "I'm Every Woman: The History of Women in Soul" workshop will be streamed live on www.whitehouse.gov/live.
"I'm Every Woman: The History of Women in Soul" will be accompanied by a broader educational program, also developed by The GRAMMY Museum®, consisting of visits to Greater Washington-area institutions and a special student press conference where student journalists will be able to question production staff for articles in their school or local newspaper. In addition, The GRAMMY Museum® will offer downloadable curriculum and educational materials for middle and high school teachers, available at www.grammymuseum.org and www.pbs.org/whitehouse. This is the seventh educational workshop at the White House that The GRAMMY Museum® has organized, in cooperation with the "In Performance at the White House" concert series.
"In Performance at the White House" Series
"Women of Soul: In Performance at the White House" will be the twelfth "In Performance at the White House" program during President Barack Obama's administration. From February 2009 to the most recent broadcast in May 2013, these latest "In Performance at the White House" events have honored the musical genius of Stevie Wonder, Sir Paul McCartney, Burt Bacharach, Hal David and Carole King; celebrated Hispanic musical heritage during Hispanic Heritage Month; marked Black History Month with events featuring the music of Motown, Memphis Soul, the Blues, and from the Civil Rights Movement; explored the rich roots of Country music; and spotlighted Broadway and the unique spirit of the American musical. The star-studded line-ups have included Marc Anthony, Tony Bennett, Elvis Costello, Sheryl Crow, Bob Dylan, Jamie Foxx, José Feliciano, Dave Grohl, Buddy Guy, Herbie Hancock, Faith Hill, Jennifer Hudson, Mick Jagger, Jonas Brothers, B.B.

The series was created to showcase the rich fabric of American culture in the setting of the nation's most famous home. Past programs have showcased such talent as cellist Mstislav Rostropovich, dancer/choreographer Mikhail Baryshnikov, popular music singers Linda Ronstadt and Alison Krauss, the United States Marine Band, soul and jazz singers Natalie Cole and Anita Baker, leading Broadway performers, and the Dance Theatre of Harlem.

A new quality improvement tool for estimating data-driven benchmarks may soon provide an alternative to opinion-based approaches for identifying best medical care practices. This tool, which can be used in performance feedback to health care providers, is being developed and tested with support from the Agency for Health Care Policy and Research (HS09446).
Clinical care benchmarks serve as a standard of best clinical care practice against which other similar practices can be measured. Such benchmarks pervade the health care quality improvement literature. However, they usually are based on subjective assessments of providers, or arbitrarily chosen performance levels, rather than data-derived measurements. As such, benchmarks may not yield an achievable level of excellence that can be reproduced under specified conditions, notes Catarina I. Kiefe, Ph.D., M.D., of the University of Alabama at Birmingham.
Dr. Kiefe and her colleagues are developing a method to identify peer-group-based, objective, reproducible, data-driven performance measures called Achievable Benchmarks of Care (ABC) at the process-of-care indicator level. The ABC relies on two mathematical concepts. The first, the pared-mean, applies quantitative techniques to determine "top performance," that is, the mean of the best care achieved for at least 10 percent of the population. The ABC also uses a Bayesian estimator technique to reduce the impact of providers with small numbers of eligible patients.
The researchers used the ABC in an initial benchmarking analysis in the Cooperative Cardiovascular Project (CCP), which focused on six specific process of care indicators for heart attack patients ranging from smoking cessation counseling to hospital administration of low-dose heparin. Pooling the patients eligible for smoking cessation counseling at 12 hospitals resulted in a benchmark performance level of 49 percent. Of these 12 benchmark contributors, 10 hospitals had rates above 49 percent, that is, were benchmark performers. Hospitals responded positively to their performance feedback.
See "Identifying achievable benchmarks of care (ABCs): Concepts and methodology," by Dr. Kiefe, Norman W. Weissman, Ph.D., Jeroan J. Allison, M.D., M.S., and others, in the October 1998 International Journal for Quality in Health Care 10(5), pp. 443-447.

Humboldt County sheriff's deputies pulled over a Fortuna resident for expired registration in McKinleyville early Tuesday morning, and found one-half pound of marijuana, a stolen check, stolen credit and casino cards, bolt cutters and several pounds of heavy, industrial copper wire, according to a press release.
The driver, who identified herself as Sandra Belisle, was stopped near Central Avenue and Murray Road.
While deputies spoke with Belisle, they reported seeing a marijuana cigarette in plain view on the dashboard. Belisle said she had a 215 medical marijuana card, but could not produce one, according to the press release.
After deputies searched the car, they contacted the Fortuna Police Department and learned at least one of the credit cards was reported stolen in a residential burglary. They also found the check was reported stolen from a victim's mailbox.
Fortuna police informed deputies that there is an active construction site near Belisle's residence. Police are following up to determine if the copper wire was stolen from the construction zone, the release states.
Belisle was arrested on suspicion of possession of more than one ounce of marijuana, transportation of marijuana, possession of burglary tools and possession of stolen property. She was booked into the Humboldt County jail. Her bail was set at $25,000.
The sheriff's office is asking anyone with information about this case or related criminal activity to call the sheriff's office at 445-7251, or the sheriff's office crime tip line at 268-2539.

Great painting
By Jo
from Ottawa
Purchase Reason
Bought as a gift for partner. He is very thrilled with the way it looks. Bought the biggest size but not a frame. The painting is framed and we used size 70 by 100 I believe.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Exquisite piece
By Renee
from Sacramento, CA
This piece is absolutely beautiful. I selected the higher print quality paper and highly recommend making this choice. The piece is so much more vivid and looks original the graining is so realistic and artistically done. The only thing I should have done was to measure out the complete finished estimate framed as the finished product was smaller than I thought it would be. It is so lovely though that I didn't want to send it back and order a larger piece. This is totally my fault so I don't have any complaints against the company. The frame was gorgeous and the framing job is very professional. I was very impressed with your work, delivery, service in general. Highly recommend this website and products.

POLICE are warning residents to secure their homes after a spate of burglaries across Winchester.
Thieves stole cash and jewellery from homes in Lower Chilland Lane, Martyr Worthy; Woodlands, Bramdean; the B3047, Bishop's Sutton; and the B3046, Old Alresford.
All burglaries occurred on Thursday, November 15, with entry forced through rear or side doors at each address.
Properties in Church Road, Upper Farringdon, and The Street, Binstead, were also burgled the same day and are being linked.
The offenders are described as white, in their late 20s, around 5ft 8ins, wearing soft quilted caps, navy quilted jackets and jeans, and speaking with home county accents.
PC Craig Robinson, said: "As we approach the festive season, we would encourage people to ensure their home security is optimised, such as security lighting, including internal timer switches; ensuring homes are locked and secured whilst they are out, marking property with UV pens, photographing valuable or distinctive jewellery, and considering keeping expensive or sentimental items in a safety deposit box at their bank.
"I am appealing for anyone with any information about these burglaries to come forward and speak to us. Have you witnessed any suspicious behaviour or seen any unusual vehicles being driven around the areas in question?"
Anyone with information should contact Winchester or East Hampshire Priority Crime teams on 101, quoting Operation Saunton, or call Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555111.

Just ordered my press and need supplies and info..
Well the tax money came in and rather than let the wife spend it all I ordered a Lee Classic Turrent Kit from Factory sales and a Lyman bullet puller and a Hornady digital scale from Midway. I also picked up a sonic cleaner from Harbor Freight. My press and dies should be Monday...
I'm going to be loading pistol ammo to start with- .38 Special, .357Mag and
I've been saving my brass for a while, so I've got enough to get started.
The Problem I have is there is a shortage of places that sell reloading supplies in my immediate area (bullets, powder and primers). I live in the Tristate area of Florida, Alabama and Georgia. (Lake Seminole is about 2 miles from the house)
In Dothan, AL there are only 2 stores I know of that stock supplies and they don't stock much. Both only have Hogdon powders- Hogdon IMR and Winchester...
In Tallahasse, FL the only place I know is Kevin's Sporting Goods.
Not sure about Panama City or Bainbridge, Ga.
I don't really want to order online just yet- I'd really like to get set up and find what's going to work for me and my guns before I order in bulk and pay hazmat.
Any suggestions for Powder? I would like to use one for all three calibers if possible. I know that .45acp uses a different primer but I would like to use the same primers in both .38special and .357mag
Also, does anyone know anywhere else in the area that sells reloading supplies?

Order powder and primers from Powder Valley.
I use Montana Gold bullets. You can get them from Montana Gold directly or from Jake at Rocky Mountain Reloading (He's a member here).
I'm sure there's one powder that can be used for 38 and 357 but you might want a second one for 45. I'm not really sure though, I don't load any of those cartridges. Certainly there's one that would work, but maybe not optimally in all 3.
Still happily answering to the call-sign Peetza.
The problem, as you so eloquently put it, is choice.

Several powder can be used for these combinations - but realize there will be compromises, especially with the 357 performance.
Bullseye comes to mind as does Universal Clays, Red Dot, and most of the powder that is also used for 12 or 20 gauge shotgun target loads.
You need a manual or three and you need to read them
Ordering online is cheaper, especially when you order in bulk. Since you have no idea what will work best for you, IMO, you are better off buying small quantities at first so if something doesn't work, you are not out a lot of money - therefore, buying local to save shipping and hazmat would be best.
Kevin's is a nice store, BTW.
Once you decide on one or two powders and primers, then buying large quantities in bulk over the net will save you money - that means 2 or more 8# jugs of powder, primers in multiples of 5000, bullets by the case, etc....
Over time the savings can really add up............

HP38/231 will work well in all of those cartridges.
I have never used anything but CCI primers. They work well, but no reason why any of the others wont work just as well.
As has been mentioned by several others, starting out, jacketed bullets are easier to load and there is lots of data for specific bullets. When you go to lead there is very often not specific data for specific bullets.
I would buy in smaller quantities (1# powder, 100 primers, 100 bullets) until you find a combination you like.

Ok some good advice here so far...
I picked up the Hogdon 2012 reloading manual and looks like HP-38, 231 or Clays will work for what I think I'm looking for, mainly practice ammo.
Kevin's in Tallahassee has several brands of powder and bullets so I may stop by there on my way home Tuesday..

I'm new also to reloading. I went to cabelas to get started after discussing it with numerous people. I am using bullseye powder for 38, 357 and also 45 acp. I am using 200 gr SWC lead bullets in my 45's. The Kimber I have handles it fine however my old ( 30 yr ) colt will not feed the swc properly. I had trouble with the RCBS dies they sold me with the taper crimp, so I ordered a LEE factory crimp die. I emailed bullseye for correct powder charges for the bullets I'm using for all my reloads. They are more than happy to help. Got back to me within a couple of hours. I have been using light loads for plinking. I bought a vibrating tumbler after reviewing all the reviews about the other ones on the market. I bought corn cob media at the farm store 25lbs for around $12.00 and added a little bit of metal polish when I tumble.

try DSH as well...http://www.dshfirearms.com/id32.htm
they carry reloading supplies and are on the east side of tallahassee as well..
other than that, the gun shows that frequent the area have a reloading supplies..
I picked up a tumbler, powder, primers, dies, projectiles..
Ga arms has good prices on cast lead bullets for 9mm & 38/357
lubed/sized for 28 bux/500
I'm going to try bullseye for 9,38,45 first..and then see what happens..
I prefer a diffrent scale than the lee, but have one..to me, a rcbs/dillon 505 is easier to see the grains and tenths on than the lee..
I'm still lacking a caliper.

I'm guessing that the Bass Pro in Spanish Fort is about 200 miles away from you. Last time I was in there, they had a limited selection of primers and powder, but not many bullets.
To develop loads, I would suggest you get your powder and primers locally if possible. For target loads, look at Winchester 231. If Alliant powder is available, you may consider Power Pistol for full power loads. Alternate choice is Unique (but I don't like the way it meters through my powder measure).
Bullets are very difficult to find in my area; therefore, it's been mail order from the start. I've been using Berrys plated bullets with no problems. Been getting them direct from Berrys or from Powder Valley.
If you begin to crank out a lot of rounds, you'll need to be buying in bulk from places like Powder Valley, Graf and Sons, Widnener's Reloading, Precision Delta, MO Bullets, etc. Can also get supplies from gun shows - buyer beware.
A lack of planning on your part does not necessarily constitute an emergency on my part.

Bullseye and Unique. Will do everything you want to do, in all the calibers mentioned, except that for really screaming .357 mag loads you'll need some 2400. You can wait on that until you have more experience!

I agree with moxy
I have used aliant powders for some time now and unique is very versitle and works well. I personally prefer bullseye for my pistol loads most times. I would recomend buying a pound of each and see what you like the best. I typically use gold dot HP for all loading too. I figgure I should practice with what I intend to use in the field. Most gun shops will order any powder you want if they like your money.
As far as a good place to find your non explosive components, I always recomend cheaper than dirt. I've been doing business with them for 10+ yrs now and dont have a single bad thing to say about them. When the unfortunate does happen the customer service department is the best of any company I've ever delt with.
I hope this helps you out. Remember to be patient s a new loader too. Take the time to enjoy it and the pride of a flawless match grade round made by your own hand. Learn from those before you. Those loading data books arent just sugestions. Take them as gossiple untill you have a few years under your belt. Most of all stay safe and pass on the knowlege to the next generation of shooters headed our way.

Thanks for all the replies... TFL is the main reason I became interested in reloading...
Do any other powder companies besides RamShot have online load data?

During a conference call Friday, UFC welterweight champion Georges St-Pierre announced that he will vacate his belt. Following his last fight, a split-decision victory over Johny Hendricks that sparked a significant controversy, St-Pierre had announced that he would be taking time off for personal reasons.
By Christopher Murphy @MurphMMA
Long-standing UFC welterweight champion Georges St-Pierre announced that he will vacate the UFC belt. The announcement came during a special UFC conference call Friday.
Following St-Pierre's last fight, a split-decision victory over Johny Hendricks at UFC 167, the champion announced that he would need to take some time off for personal reasons. Since that time, UFC President Dana White has vocally criticized the champion's decision, calling for Hendricks to be given an immediate rematch and saying GSP would not retire.
St-Pierre will stand true to his intentions, however, as he plans to take time away from the sport indefinitely.
" I've been fighting for a very long time at a high level, it's a lot of pressure, a lot of criticism," St-Pierre said in an opening statement. "I decided I needed to take a time off, I know the UFC is a business and they can't wait on my personal [business] they need to keep things rolling. I'm vacating my title for the other competitors."
During his UFC career, Georges St-Pierre was able to amass a number of impressive records inside the Octagon. He holds the UFC record for most wins in the UFC (19) and most title bout wins (12), surpassing Matt Hughes and Anderson Silva, respectively. He has also spent an impressive 5 hours, 28 minutes and 12 seconds inside the Octagon, surpassing BJ Penn.

| Match pictures | Champions Trophy coverage
BIRMINGHAM: India's unbeaten run in the 2013 Champions Trophy culminated in a thrilling five-run win over hosts England in a rain-ravaged final that was reduced to 20 overs per innings following several delays.
The game matched the weather in its ebbs and flows.
Asked to bat, India were shot out for a nonthreatening 129/7, a total reached from a perilous 66/5 through Virat Kohli (43) and Ravindra Jadeja (33).
England then made a hash of it at the start. Stranded on 46/4, they were helped along by a 64-run stand between Eoin Morgan (33) and Ravi Bopara (30), a partnership that brought them to within 22 runs of victory.
But on a pitch that was taking turn and assisted by fielders who kept their heads in crisis, MS Dhoni's side restricted the hosts to 124/8, unable to muster the 15 they needed off R. Ashwin's last over of the match.
The victory completes Dhoni's rich haul as captain, adding another feather in a cap that includes a World Cup and a Twenty20 World Cup, and the No.1 rankings in Tests and ODIs. Dhoni's protege Jadeja, aside from his pivotal cameo, took two wickets and finished the tournament's top wicket-taker with 12 scalps in five games.
Ashwin stars
Ashwin took a good catch to send Alastair Cook packing in the second over. The England skipper was surprised by Umesh Yadav's extra pace and the ball flew off the shoulder of the bat for a sharp catch to the right of first slip.
Jonathan Trott, having begun with a string of confident hits, ventured to flick Ashwin and was stumped smartly down the leg-side by MS Dhoni off a wide ball. The Chennai offie then spun out Joe Root, the baby-faced and precociously talented batsman top-edging an attempted pull for Ishant Sharma to run in from deep square leg for a comfortable catch.
Bell jarred
Opener Ian Bell had watched the chase dissolve into disrepair. He reverse-swept Jadeja to gain momentum, but on the very next ball was given stumped by the third umpire, Dhoni's snappy work swaying a borderline decision in his team's favour.
The home team were on 46/4 after ten overs, the ball turning square and the asking rate climbing alarmingly into the land of no approach. Eighty-four were needed in the last 10 overs and then 48 in the last five, as Ishant was taken to the cleaners.
Ishant's see-saw
Bopara welcomed Jadeja back with a slog-swept six and Dhoni's persistence with Ishant cost another Morgan-inflicted maximum, the equation standing on 22 needed off 18. The next two deliveries swung the match again as Morgan and Bopara, in their hurry to win it, fell on successive balls.
A rash of run outs later England needed 15 in Ashwin's last over to win their first ODI title. It was not to be. Ashwin conceded a boundary, but that was about all that happened. India were deserving winners of the last Champions Trophy.
Crucial runs
A late partnership of 47 in 33 balls between Kohli and Jadeja kept them in the hunt after a collapse looked imminent at 66/5 in 13 overs. India would have thought themselves favourites; several delays had reduced the final to a Twenty20 shootout that was made possible only because the ICC made up for the deplorable lack of a rest day by adding 75 minutes to the playing time.
But with a new ball from either end, England had their tails up early. Rohit Sharma survived an edgy time in the middle before Stuart Broad's faith in the full and fast delivery destroyed his off-stump.
More rain
Another drizzle interrupted play with India on 19/1 after four overs. Shikhar Dhawan welcomed the resumption by slashing Broad for a six over third man, both feet off the ground.
A few balls later, further rain warranted more evasive measures, and once again Dhawan picked up the threads undisturbed, sweeping and reverse-sweeping off-spinner James Tredwell for boundaries.
But Tredwell and England's fifth bowler Bopara soon took over the contest. No sooner did the fifty come up for India, in the ninth over, that Dhawan hit Bopara's slower delivery to Tredwell at extra cover.
Wicket maiden
The balding off-spinner then removed Dinesh Karthik through a top-edged slog sweep, held comfortably by Morgan as if to atone for the four overthrows he had earlier conceded.
Suresh Raina hadn't spent much time in the middle all tournament, and he became the fourth wicket to fall, swiping Bopara across to line for Cook to snaffle a dead-straight projectile at mid-on. In the same over skipper Dhoni perished playing the upper cut, giving Bopara two wickets in the only maiden of the innings.
Kohli dropped
Kohli sought to restore India to even keel. He creamed boundaries in Bopara's last over and smashed Bresnan through midwicket, before Trott put down his catch at short third man.
The reprieve was celebrated by a savage pull for six off Broad. At the other end, Sir Jadeja did one better, at least visually, by stepping aside – a la Srinivasan – and scorching Anderson way over long-off for another maximum. Kohli was caught trying to hit Anderson out of the park by a tumbling Bopara. Jadeja continued his little onslaught, an invaluable cameo that carried India to 129/7, and allowed their bowlers to steal yet another tournament win.

Windows Phone 8.1 is due to be released later this year, with the launch expected to take place between June and August. We've already built up a good idea of what to expect from the platform thanks to a number of leaked videos.
We've rounded up a selection of the best Windows Phone 8.1 videos and put them together in one place for you to checkout. They demo a host of new features including 'Microsoft Camera', 'Action Center', 'Swype-style Keyboard', 'WiFi Sense' and 'Internet Explorer 11'.
A couple of videos have also been posted showing Windows Phone 8.1 running on the budget Lumia 510 the high-end Lumia 920. Microsoft have already confirmed that Windows Phone 8.1 will be coming to all existing smartphones running on Windows Phone 8.
Windows Phone 8.1 is a huge update to Microsoft's platform and we're only just starting to get an idea of the features that could be included. It's already looking great and there is still plenty of time for the platform to be tweaked and for more features to be added.
Anyway, enough of the talk and on with the all-important videos.

Counterfeit Electronics Seized
CNS–Federal agents at the Los Angeles/Long Beach port complex seized a large shipment of counterfeit electronic items from China, officials announced Tuesday.
The shipment of 5,475 wireless routers and 7,472 Ethernet switches was confiscated on Friday, said Cristina Gamez of U.S. Customs and Border Protection.
The items had logos similar to products by Apple, Microsoft and Windows Vista, and had a "domestic value" of $659,500, and a "manufacturer's suggested retail price" of $857,340, Gamez said.
Customs and Border Protection experts determined that the logos were "substantially indistinguishable" from trademarks recorded with CPB.
"CPB is charged with enforcing trade laws, and we continue to devote substantial resources to target, intercept, detain, seize and forfeit shipments of goods that violate these laws," said Kevin W. Weeks, CBP's director of field operations in Los Angeles.
 There were no arrests.

Different Strokes
No two children are exactly alike—so their classroom lessons shouldn't be, either.
That's the idea behind an innovative teacher training program led by special education professor Alida Anderson. Operating out of a local arts-based charter school, the program trains teachers to incorporate arts into the curriculum to reach "multiple intelligences" in the classroom.
Visual learners may best retain something that they see, auditory learners something that they hear, and kinesthetic learners something that they do. The idea, Anderson says, is to give all kids an opportunity to participate in classroom activities that are most appropriate to their learning styles.
"There are many teachers out there who believe that in order to teach to all of your students, you need to develop activities that speak to all the intelligences at once. But it's really about presenting diverse classroom opportunities that allow students to express themselves in their favored intelligences," says Anderson. "So in essence, through this professional development, we're helping teachers to become conductors of an orchestra of multisensory, arts-based approaches for use with their students."
Sponsored by a grant from the U.S. Department of Education, this year-long professional development program operates in conjunction with the School for ARTs in Learning (SAIL).
This D.C.-based public charter school (grades K–8) uses arts integration to teach its students, 65 percent of whom have an identifiable disability.
Seven core staff members will complete a five-course certificate in curriculum and instruction, with an emphasis on incorporating arts, as well as special education and technology, into the curriculum. They will subsequently come back and train the rest of the SAIL faculty.
"This is not just a program for seven teachers," says Anderson. "By sharing what they are learning with the rest of the staff, this core cohort will give the program a sustainable life of its own at the school."
Given SAIL's mission, Anderson sees the partnership as a unique opportunity for the School of Education, Teaching, and Health to maintain the legacy of the late Sally Smith. In 1967, the AU professor and special education pioneer founded the Lab School of Washington, an innovative, arts-based school for children with learning disabilities.
"I think she would really like seeing her arts integration work being both continued and developed further," Anderson says. "She was one of the founders of arts-based integration and of everything that has followed."

England are doomed, says Croatia striker Silva
Arsenal striker Eduardo da Silva has written off England's chances of reaching Euro 2008.
Defeat in Russia last month has left Steve McClaren's men on the brink of missing out on a major tournament for the first time since the 1994 World Cup.
If Russia beat Israel in Tel Aviv on November 17 and Eduardo's Croatia gain a point in Macedonia on the same night, England will head into their final Group E game against the Croats at Wembley four days later knowing the only thing that could save them would be an Andorra win over Guus Hiddink's Russia - quite possibly the most improbable outcome in international football history.
As the scorer of Croatia's crucial second goal in Zagreb 13 months ago, Eduardo - an £8million summer arrival at the Emirates Stadium from Dynamo Zagreb - has done his bit to ensure England do not make it through.
And, while the 25-year-old is understandably more concerned about Croatia, he feels England will tumble.
'Things are looking really complicated for England,' he said.
'Croatia are not there yet. We still need a draw against Macedonia. But we are definitely in the best position and I reckon it looks like Russia and Croatia will qualify.'
Russia's trip to the Ramat Gan Stadium will provide a heavy backdrop to the squad announcement McClaren is due to make on Friday for a friendly against Austria in Vienna 24 hours earlier and the concluding Croatia clash at Wembley.
With the situation completely out of his hands, McClaren can do little more than cross his fingers and hope Israel avoid defeat, as they did in Moscow on their previous encounter with Russia, and also as they did against England on home soil in March.
Knowing any result other than a Russia win would throw the door back open for England, McClaren is unlikely to see the Austria game as a chance to see what some of his fringe players can do, hence his decision to meet up with David Beckham in Los Angeles to discover the extent of the former captain's fitness.
While McClaren's trans-Atlantic flight has been condemned by Terry Butcher as 'farcical', the expedition had little to do with Beckham's performance against a team of Hollywood actors but more a valuable discussion over the 32-year-old's role over the crucial next fortnight.
Rio Ferdinand's suspension means one change against Croatia from the team that lost in Russia is inevitable.
Skipper John Terry seems certain to be named in McClaren's squad but given the defender has not played since his knee locked in training prior to the Russia defeat, heralding another operation for the battle-scared 27-year-old, his fitness must be open to question.
The same is also true of Manchester City's Micah Richards, so with Gary Neville yet to make a first-team appearance following his recovery from a calf and thigh problems and Ashley Cole still sidelined with an ankle problem, McClaren could be without his entire first-choice defence.
It had been assumed that failure to qualify would propel McClaren out of the England job after just 18 games in charge.
However, over the past few weeks, key figures, including FA chief executive Brian Barwick, Premier League chairman and FA board member Sir David Richards - who would have a crucial role identifying any successor - and McClaren's assistant Terry Venables have spoken up for the current incumbent, so it is not totally certain the former Middlesbrough manager would be asked to relinquish his duties if England were condemned to stay at home next summer.

I have a dog who loves to lick legs and feet anytime she catches an unsuspecting bare foot or hand dangling from a chair. I also have one who will sit right beside me while I'm watching TV or working at the computer. Every now and then out of the blue, she'll slurp me on the side of the face. Do dogs lick us because we taste like salt, are they giving us a kiss, or is it more complicated with no clear answers?
Puppies are groomed by their moms to keep them clean and help stimulate body functions. This is warm and gentle, and feels good to them. The pleasant feeling of their mother's grooming leaves them with positive memories they carry into adulthood, and they may be trying to share those positive feelings with us.
We know wolf puppies and adolescents greet the adults returning from a hunt by eagerly gathering around them and licking them on the mouth and chin to induce a regurgitated meal from them. Licking is also considered a sign of respect, and is a submissive behavior of welcome given to the alpha and those who are higher in their social order.
No one really knows the exact reason why dogs lick us. A lick on the hand or face will usually cause us to scratch them behind their ears or pet them. So perhaps their lick is asking us to return their "kiss" with affection of our own. Often times, a lick is followed by tail wagging and a submissive posture in their body language which results in a playful reaction from us. So the lick could be their way of respectfully asking us to pay attention to them.
When we return home, most dog owners are greeted by their dogs with happy tails waving. Ears are laid back telling us how happy they are to see us. Their eyes sparkle as they wait for us to acknowledge them. In a way, they are greeting us with the same excitement wolf pups use to greet the returning hunters to their home. But they aren't looking for us to share food from the hunt, they are just wanting to say "Hi, I'm really glad you're home."
Licking may be a subtle social activity and could be part of the body language of dogs. It's thought that wolves and wild dogs lick themselves and each other to help remove any debris left over after a meal. This helps keep them clean as well as removes odors that could let their prey know they are around. Even though our dogs don't need to disguise themselves or us from prey, it's possible dogs lick us because of an instinctive need for cleanliness that has been passed along from their wild cousins. But it could also be a stress reliever or something they do to help break up their boredom.
More than likely, dogs lick us to show their respect and by doing so, they are submitting to us and saying they understand we are their leader. I know in my pack, the dogs who lick the most are the lower ranking members in our social order. Most of the time when they lick us on the face, leg, feet or hands, they receive positive reactions from us. So in a way, we encourage their "kisses" by our response.
If we have been sweating, they may lick us because of the salt; however, no one knows this for sure. Dogs will lick interesting and intriguing smells they come across whether it's on us or somewhere else. Dogs may lick us because they smell our face, hand or body lotion. They may like the smell of the soap we use or maybe we just have a food smell that settled on our skin.
If a dog is nervous or stressed out for any reason, they may lick their lips and bite on their feet or legs while they groom themselves. Pay attention to compulsive licking because it could be signaling the dog has something that's upsetting them or there could be an underlying medical condition that is causing them to be obsessed with licking. A dog who licks furniture, rugs, concrete, walls, floors, etc. could be bored, but there could be something else going on. A trip to the vet can help you understand why your dog may be licking everything in sight.
In the long run, it doesn't really matter why dogs lick us. I take it as something they find warm and sociable. It's their way of showing us how much they care about us, and I'll certainly reward their affection anytime they want to share it.

He says it to everyone, from the guy handing out concert flyers on the corner to his best friend Peter (Bradley Cooper), who's desperately trying to cheer him up. When an acquaintance shows up one day raving about self-help guru Terrence Bundley (Terence Stamp), whose program is all about saying "yes" to everything, it plants a seed in Carl's brain when he finally realizes something needs to change. Though initially resistant, Carl succumbs to Terrence's persuasive powers and begins agreeing to anything that comes his way. Though it makes for some less-than-ideal situations at first, his yeses eventually lead him to the quirky and pretty Allison (Zooey Deschanel), a jogging-photography teacher and lead singer in a band that has more costume changes than songs in its setlist. In other words, a free spirit finally meets her equal, though where her's comes naturally, Carl's comes by way of a program that sometimes makes him do things he doesn't want to. Though the radical remedy has changed his life, "no" will have to eventually make a return. When it does, hopefully it won't involve anything or anyone he actually cares for. At first sounding like a retread of "Liar Liar", where Carrey's unethical lawyer is compelled to tell the truth after a simple wish from his often-disappointed son, "Yes Man" is more grounded in reality. There's a satisfactory reason for Carl's misanthropy (where "Liar Liar" merely traded on a stereotype of attorneys) and the remedy of saying "yes" to everything, while exaagerated, is really just another way of practicing "carpe diem," something all of us try to do in life at some point. The film's relatable quality no doubt comes from the source material - Danny Wallace's non-fiction book, "Yes Man", which recounts the author's year-long experience of saying "no" to nothing. Though the fictionalized adaptation probably bears little resemblance to the book, whatever major insights Wallace had about life seems to have carried over, in spirit if not in body. What it makes for are some surprisingly inspirational and endearing moments amidst the consistently humorous situations and sight gags. And though the movie's message is certainly nothing new, it's one we can all stand to be reminded of from time to time. Video Quality: 4/5 The film is accurately framed at 2.40:1 and presented in 1080p with the VC-1 codec. Black levels and contrast are generally very good with only a few instances where things look a little flat or blown out. Colors also show good depth and richness, though flesh tones can be a little inconsistent, even within the same scene. The picture is consistently sharp, however, and fine object detail is very good as evidenced by cloth textures, strands of hair and the tight, checked patterns of brick buildings. Grain structure is also nicely preserved with no obvious signs of noise reduction. Audio Quality: 3.5/5 The Dolby TrueHD audio track is often very front-heavy, surrounds perking up with soundtrack support and echo effects more for dramatic, rather than atmospheric, effect. While it makes sense on a certain level, it also seems a little uninspired. LFE can be suprisingly robust though - in particular during the self-help seminar - and overall the track shows good dynamic range, with consistently clear and intelligible dialogue. Special Features: 3.5/5 Though there's nothing in the special features that one would consider "in-depth," tending to focus on Carrey's on-set antics, fans of Deschanel should be quite pleased with the inclusion of Munchausen By Proxy's complete performances. "Downtime on the Set of 'Yes Man' with Jim Carrey" (3m59s): Carrey's antics and tomfoolery in coping with downtime-induced boredom. "Jim Carrey: Extreme Yes Man" (11m52s): A look behind the scenes of the various stunts, including the dog attack, body blading, riding the Ducati motorcyle and bungee jumping. On Set with Danny Wallace (8m32s): Author of "Yes Man" Danny Wallace takes viewers on a tour of the film set, which includes some impromptu interviews with the cast and behind-the-scenes of his brief appearance in the film. "Future Sounds: Munchausen by Proxy" (5m28s): Faux music channel special on the quirky band. "Say Yes to Red Bull!" (2m06s): A brief look at Red Bull's affect on Carrey. Yes Man: Party Central (2m16s): Rhys Darby, in his Ron Weasely costume, gives viewers a tour of his character's apartment. Munchausen by Proxy Performances (14m33s): The complete performances of the quirky band's songs, including "Uh-Huh", "Yes Man", "Star-Spangled Banner", "Sweet Ballad" and "Keytar". Additional Scenes (7m31s): Seven deleted scenes, a few of which show Carl's new business after leaving the bank. Gag Reel (5m35s) BD-Live: At the time of review, the only features were a streaming trailer and commercial for the Yes Loans! company. Digital Copy: Download a digital copy for playback on computer or portable video device. Compatible with Mac and Windows. Recap The Feature: 4/5 Video Quality: 4/5 Audio Quality: 3.5/5 Special Features: 3.5/5 Overall Score (not an average): 3.5/5 A surprisingly endearing and inspirational comedy gets a good technical presentation and a decent set of extras.

Kurt Vonnegut made his mark as one of America's most influential writers with novels such as Slaughterhouse Five, named one of the 100 best English-language novels by Time. Published posthumously, While Mortals Sleep is a collection of 16 short stories, written early in Vonnegut's career, that further cements his status as an American literary icon.

"old stories before he got to be the KV I've loved"
I am Kurt Vonnegut fan, have been for 30+ years but was so dissapointed to find these stores were pulled from long, long ago (IMHO) before KV became the writer I love. Nothing wrong with just being 'old' but the pazazzz of KV wasn't yet developed.. I feel I wasted a token getting these short stories. Narrator did great job, just the KV I know wasn't there! sorry to have to say this and I remain a Vonnegut fan, just not a fan of 'While Mortals Sleep'. I still recommend KV, get them, enjoy them.... just not this one.

You can do both — enjoy your favorite activities while meeting someone who shares your interests. After all, isn't that the whole point of dating anyway?
And if you're looking for new ways to explore your city, TheGloss Dating also offers you the option of picking potential dates proposed by singles who would be a good match for you — basically a dating concierge that will help enhance your dating life through offers of new and exciting things to do around town.

Join the revolution now.

I Love/Hate You Ultrasound- Motherhood Without Warning
The ultrasound is an amazing mark of technology and a huge medical advance from the x-ray. The kind of ultrasound I'm talking about is technically ultrasonography, the kind used to see fetuses in the womb. Basically sound waves are presenting an image, that's how I interpret the words I don't understand anyways. The first time you see your baby on that ultrasound screen is amazing. Print picture and frame! The 4th, 6th and 10th time it loses it's thrill a little.
A twin pregnancy creates a lot more medical concern. I don't believe it has to, but it does. An identical twin pregnancy with a little growth discrepancy between the two babies creates even more medical concern, because of something called Twin to Twin Transfusion Syndrome. So this leads us to a lot of ultrasound monitoring.
Ultrasounds present images of these babies (cute parasites) inside my huge belly. It makes them real. I LOVE that! I love being reassured their little hearts are beating and hearing things like "look they have hair already" is fun. In this one to the right, it's our tinier babies lips and nose, it makes them real.
I HATE that each and every time(weekly now) we go for an ultrasound, we are there to put worry to rest. We don't know if we are headed to the hospital for immediate delivery or not. But probably the worst part is the level of inaccuracy in ultrasound. These are measurements made by a human. A centimeter off can mean premature babies to us. Most recently a skilled tech measured one of their bellies and that one measurement meant they were only 11% different in size which would've been awesome, the doctor remeasured and what he got brought us back up to 20% different, not great.
I'm 34 weeks and a few days now, which in twin pregnancy land is something to be proud of. I'm still working and feeling mostly good. Which I attribute to 100+ grams of protein and a gallon of water a day plus a good attitude. There's two babies in my belly. I'm a super human growing 2 humans! Do you hear that 'roar'?

First - thank you SO much for a fantastic theme. So awesome, and so useful. You rock!
I have checked the forums for an answer to my question, and I've spent a few hours trying to figure this out myself, so I thought I would ask you for some help.
I'm trying to add the slider to all our pages, except a few. We are a law firm (http://goo.gl/F28nA6), and the majority of our pages describe our practice areas. I want the slider to show on those pages, just not the "contact us", "about us", "testimonials", etc. I'm using the tutorial from Prassanna (thanks for the great tips - I love your site!). I know it's because I have very limited knowledge working with PHP, but when I try to edit the conditional tags, my site breaks. I would LOVE to be able to add slider to all pages EXCEPT the ones I list, but I couldn't find that option.
Do you any of you have a quick answer?
Thanks for your help!
