FAYETTEVILLE — Offensive coordinator Jim Chaney couldn't find much fault with Arkansas' 165-yard rushing performance in its loss at Alabama on Oct. 19.
FAYETTEVILLE — Offensive coordinator Jim Chaney couldn't find much fault with Arkansas' 165-yard rushing performance in its loss at Alabama on Oct. 19.
It was the most the Razorbacks had gained against the Crimson Tide since 2007. Topping the 100-yard rushing mark is one of the keys to beating Alabama under coach Nick Saban, too. So Chaney said last week he would take that type of performance "the rest of his career" because of Alabama's dominance.
"The problem we're having is just the out-and-out execution with any aspect of the passing game," Chaney said. "Just trying to find something to hang our hat on."
Arkansas has had plenty to dissect and correct over the course of the past two weeks and there's no doubt its woeful passing attack stands as one of the top priorities as the Razorbacks prepare to play eighth-ranked Auburn on Saturday.
Arkansas — which had one of the nation's most prolific passing attacks during Bobby Petrino's tenure — has become one of the nation's worst. The Razorbacks are 113th in passing offense (146.6 yards a game) and 112th in efficiency (106.39 rating).
They haven't thrown a touchdown pass in 13 quarters dating back to the 45-33 loss to Texas A&M on Sept. 28. The drought stands at 3 hours, 16 minutes and 9 seconds.
Chaney said he refuses to look at the most of the numbers. He doesn't need them to know Arkansas has struggled in every way the past several weeks, playing a significant role in Arkansas' offensive struggles the past three games.
"When we get (quarterback Brandon Allen) protected it's a little soggy, you know?" Chaney said. "When we don't get him protected it's more difficult. When we get him all protected and receivers are open he misses them. You know, it's just one of those things. I'm not saying we're snake bit because I don't believe in a lot of that, but I do believe we've got to go out and get better at all the details of the passing game."
So Chaney said Arkansas has examined everything — beginning with his play-calling — in hopes of fixing its efficiency issues against Auburn on Saturday.
The Razorbacks have offered no indication that their offensive philosophy will undergo drastic changes to do so. Arkansas still plans to run and set up the pass. But the mantra for the week has been perfecting the little things in the passing game.
"It's all about attention to details," Arkansas receiver Javontee Herndon said. "That's a big thing we're stressing in our meeting room with all the wide receivers. Wide receiver depth, route discipline and catching the football."
Catching the football has been another key after Arkansas receivers have dropped numerous passes during conference play. The Razorbacks know those mistakes — some of which came in critical situations — have to be eliminated.
"The disappointing thing this whole season is that we just haven't made the plays on a consistent basis," Arkansas receivers coach Michael Smith said about his group. "That's something I know these kids aren't doing on purpose, they're striving to get better, and they've just got to keep working at it."
It's no secret Allen has been out of sync as well the past three games.
The quarterback is completing just 44.9 percent of his passes and is ranked 107th in the nation in passing efficiency (103.6 rating). He has thrown three touchdown passes with six interceptions during Arkansas' four conference games. Two of the interceptions have been returned for touchdowns, another set up an easy score.
Allen completed 11 of 37 passes for 121 yards in Arkansas' losses to South Carolina and Alabama. He hasn't thrown a touchdown pass since the Texas A&M game.
"We've been struggling a lot lately," Allen said. "Whether that's me changing my read or different things that were going on. … A bunch of little things were going wrong that are easy to fix and they can greatly improve our passing game."
Arkansas is hoping Allen's improved health will help as well.
The quarterback was not able to participate in a full week of practice for several weeks after suffering his shoulder injury on Sept. 14. But he's gotten ample work the past two weeks and believes the extended reps will improve timing.
"That's one of the biggest things is just being on the same page with my receivers," Allen said. "And them understanding what I'm seeing and me understanding what they're seeing. That's something that it's been an ongoing process this whole year.
"I think lately the past few games it's been a little bit off and credit that to a little bit of me not being able to practice a few times earlier and things like that. But now we're back and we're trying to get on the same page and they're doing a lot of good things lately and I'm excited to see what we can get accomplished."
So is Arkansas coach Bret Bielema, who said last week the passing offense must improve in a "short amount of time" as the Razorbacks battle to keep their bowl hopes alive.
Chaney is confident Arkansas is "coming around" thanks to the extra practices.
"We did some things that we feel more comfortable with that we're trying to get done and trying to hone up some part of it," Chaney said Tuesday night. "We've been pretty bad at most aspects of it lately and we're trying to clean up some stuff, simplify some stuff and get back to some basics about throwing and catching and hitting targets and protecting and all those little things that come into it that we've been struggling with. We're working our butts off to get better at it."

Kelly on Vick: 'I don't know if he'll play Sunday'
Philadelphia, PA (SportsNetwork.com) - Philadelphia Eagles coach Chip Kelly is unsure if quarterback Michael Vick will be available to play next Sunday's road game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
"I don't know if he'll play Sunday. Right now he's day-to-day, and we'll see how he goes through the rehab process," Kelly said on Monday, a day after Vick left the Eagles' 36-21 win over the New York Giants with a hamstring injury.
Vick pulled up lame while running out of bounds on a 13-yard scramble late in the first half.
While Kelly refused to rule Vick out, multiple reports have already indicated that the veteran quarterback will unlikely be healthy enough to go, meaning second-year signal-caller Nick Foles will make his seventh career NFL start.
Foles replaced Vick against the Giants and threw two fourth-quarter touchdown passes in the victory. Kelly said after the game that Vick would remain his starter.
However, a strong performance may sway the coach to make a change.
"Yeah, there's always open competition, so if Nick goes out there and goes 100-for-100 and throws 27 touchdown passes, then yeah," Kelly said when asked if Foles could win the job going forward.
Foles' lone victory as a starter came last December at Tampa Bay.

The collision occurred without warning. Prior to the impact, thoughts had revolved around dinner plans. Images of fried chicken and mashed potatoes, however, now have been replaced by an ear-piercing siren and flashing strobe lights, that dance off of street signs and store windows. Following the injured person's six-minute ambulance ride, emergency room doctors assess the situation. There is extensive internal damage, and several organs are beginning to shut down. The prognosis is dim—unless a healthy kidney and liver are transplanted within the next 12 hours. A call is made to the National Organ Donor Registry, and the gravity of the situation is relayed to several donor officials. Within a matter of hours, a chartered air ambulance delivers the organs in a bright red Igloo™ cooler. As the anesthesiologist begins the necessary preparations for surgery, the patient notices the surgeon walk over and inspect the donated organs. The last words the patient hears as he drifts off to sleep is the surgeon saying, "Well, I guess chimp organs will have to do; after all, we share over 98% of the same genetic material."
While many evolutionists proclaim that human DNA is 98% identical to chimpanzee DNA, few would lie by idly and allow themselves to receive a transplant using chimpanzee organs. As a matter of fact, American doctors tried using chimp organs in the 1960s, but in all cases the organs were totally unsuitable. The claim of 98% similarity between chimpanzees and humans is not only deceptive and misleading, but also scientifically incorrect. Today, scientists are finding more and more differences in DNA from humans and chimps. For instance, a 2002 research study proved that human DNA was at least 5% different from chimpanzees—and that number probably will continue to grow as we learn all of the details about human DNA (Britten, 2002).
In 1962, James Dewey Watson and Francis Harry Compton Crick received the Nobel Prize in physiology or medicine for their discovery concerning the molecular structure of DNA. Just nine years earlier, in 1953, these two scientists had proposed the double helical structure of DNA—the genetic material responsible for life. By demonstrating the molecular arrangement of four nucleotide base acids (adenine, guanine, cytosine, and thymidine—usually designated as A,G,C, and T) and how they combine, Watson and Crick opened the door for determining the genetic makeup of humans and animals. The field of molecular biology became invigorated with scientists who wanted to compare the proteins and nucleic acids of one species with those of another. Just thirteen short years after Watson and Crick received their famed Nobel Prize, the declaration was made "that the average human polypeptide is more than 99 percent identical to its chimpanzee counterpart" (King and Wilson, 1975, pp. 114-115). This genetic similarity in the proteins and nucleic acids, however, left a great paradox—why do we not look or act like chimpanzees if our genetic material is so similar? King and Wilson recognized the legitimacy of this quandary when they remarked: "The molecular similarity between chimpanzees and humans is extraordinary because they differ far more than many other sibling species in anatomy and life" (p. 113). Nevertheless, the results were exactly what evolutionists were looking for, and as such, the claim has reverberated through the halls of science for decades as evidence that humans evolved from an ape-like ancestor.
One year following Watson and Crick's Nobel ceremony, chemist Emile Zuckerkandl observed that the protein sequence of hemoglobin in humans and the gorilla differed by only 1 out of 287 amino acids. Zuckerkandl noted: "From the point of view of hemoglobin structure, it appears that the gorilla is just an abnormal human, or man an abnormal gorilla, and the two species form actually one continuous population" (1963, p. 247). The molecular and genetic evidence only strengthened the evolutionary foundation for those who testified of our alleged primate ancestors. Professor of physiology Jared Diamond even titled one of his books The Third Chimpanzee, thereby viewing the human species as just another big mammal. From all appearances, it seemed that evolutionists had won a battle—humans were more than 98% identical to chimpanzees. However, after spending a lifetime looking for evidence of evolution within molecular structures, biochemist Christian Schwabe was forced to admit:
Molecular evolution is about to be accepted as a method superior to paleontology for the discovery of evolutionary relationships. As a molecular evolutionist, I should be elated. Instead it seems disconcerting that many exceptions exist to the orderly progression of species as determined by molecular homologies; so many in fact that I think the exception, the quirks, may carry the more important message (1986, p. 280, emp. added).
In 2003, the completed human genome study is scheduled to be published. Before this massive project was created, scientists estimated that humans possessed 90,000 to 100,000 genes (a gene is a section of DNA that is a basic unit of heredity, while the genome constitutes the total genetic composition of an organism). With preliminary data from the genome project now in hand, scientists believe that the actual number of genes is around 70,000 (Shouse, 2002, 295:1447). It appears that only about 1.5% of the human genome consists of genes, which code for proteins. These genes are clustered in small regions that contain sizable amounts of "non-coding" DNA (frequently referred to as "junk DNA") between the clusters. The function of these non-coding regions is only now being determined. These findings indicate that even if all of the human genes were different from those of a chimpanzee, the DNA still could be 98.5 percent similar if the "junk" DNA of humans and chimpanzees were identical.
Jonathan Marks, (department of anthropology, University of California, Berkeley) has pointed out the often-overlooked problem with this "similarity" line of thinking.
Because DNA is a linear array of those four bases—A,G,C, and T—only four possibilities exist at any specific point in a DNA sequence. The laws of chance tell us that two random sequences from species that have no ancestry in common will match at about one in every four sites. Thus even two unrelated DNA sequences will be 25 percent identical, not 0 percent identical (2000, p. B-7).
Therefore a human and any earthly DNA-based life form must be at least 25% identical. Would it be correct, then, to state that daffodils are "one-quarter human"? The idea that a flower is one-quarter human is neither profound nor enlightening; it is outlandishly ridiculous! There is hardly any biological comparison that could be conducted that would make daffodils human—except perhaps DNA. Marks went on to concede:
Moreover, the genetic comparison is misleading because it ignores qualitative differences among genomes.... Thus, even among such close relatives as human and chimpanzee, we find that the chimp's genome is estimated to be about 10 percent larger than the human's; that one human chromosome contains a fusion of two small chimpanzee chromosomes; and that the tips of each chimpanzee chromosome contain a DNA sequence that is not present in humans (B-7, emp. added).
The truth is, if we consider the absolute amount of genetic material when comparing primates and humans, the 1-2% difference in DNA represents approximately 80 million different nucleotides (compared to the 3-4 billion nucleotides that make up the entire human genome). To help make this number understandable, consider the fact that if evolutionists had to pay you one penny for every nucleotide in that 1-2% difference between the human and the chimp, you would walk away with $800,000. Given those proportions, 1-2% does not appear so small, does it?
It would make sense that, if humans and chimpanzees were genetically identical, then the manner in which they store DNA also would be similar. Yet it is not. DNA, the fundamental blueprint of life, is tightly compacted into chromosomes. All cells that possess a nucleus contain a specific number of chromosomes. Common sense would seem to necessitate that organisms that share a common ancestry would possess the same number of chromosomes. However, chromosome numbers in living organisms vary from 308 in the black mulberry (Morus nigra) to six in animals such as the mosquito (Culex pipiens) or nematode worm (Caenorhabditis elegans) [see Sinnot, et al., 1958]. Additionally, complexity does not appear to affect the chromosomal number. The radiolaria (a simple protozoon) has over 800, while humans possess 46. Chimpanzees, on the other hand, have 48 chromosomes. A strict comparison of chromosome numbers would indicate that we are more closely related to the Chinese muntjac (a small deer found in Taiwan's mountainous regions), which also has 46 chromosomes.
This hurdle of differing numbers of chromosomes may appear trivial, but we must remember that chromosomes contain genes, which themselves are composed of DNA spirals. If the blueprint of DNA locked inside the chromosomes codes for only 46 chromosomes, then how can evolution account for the loss of two entire chromosomes? The task of DNA is to continually reproduce itself. If we infer that this change in chromosome number occurred through evolution, then we are asserting that the DNA locked in the original number of chromosomes did not do its job correctly or efficiently. Considering that each chromosome carries a number of genes, losing chromosomes does not make sense physiologically, and probably would prove deadly for new species. No respectable biologist would suggest that by removing one (or more) chromosomes, a new species likely would be produced. To remove even one chromosome would potentially remove the DNA codes for millions of vital body factors. Eldon Gardner summed it up as follows: "Chromosome number is probably more constant, however, than any other single morphological characteristic that is available for species identification" (1968, p. 211). To put it another way, humans always have had 46 chromosomes, whereas chimps always have had 48.
One of the downfalls of previous molecular genetic studies has been the limit at which chimpanzees and humans could be compared accurately. Scientists often would use only 30 or 40 known proteins or nucleic acid sequences, and then from those extrapolate their results for the entire genome. Today, however, we have the majority of the human genome sequences, practically all of which have been released and made public. This allows scientists to compare every single nucleotide base pair between humans and primates—something that was not possible prior to the human genome project. In January 2002, a study was published in which scientists had constructed and analyzed a first-generation human chimpanzee comparative genomic map. This study compared the alignments of 77,461 chimpanzee bacterial artificial chromosome (BAC) end sequences to human genomic sequences. Fujiyama and colleagues "detected candidate positions, including two clusters on human chromosome 21, that suggest large, nonrandom regions of differences between the two genomes" (2002, 295:131). In other words, the comparison revealed some "large" differences between the genomes of chimps and humans.
Amazingly, the authors found that only 48.6% of the whole human genome matched chimpanzee nucleotide sequences. [Only 4.8% of the human Y chromosome could be matched to chimpanzee sequences.] This study compared the alignments of 77,461 chimpanzee sequences to human genomic sequences obtained from public databases. Of these, 36,940 end sequences were unable to be mapped to the human genome (295:131). Almost 15,000 of those sequences that did not match human sequences were speculated to "correspond to unsequenced human regions or are from chimpanzee regions that have diverged substantially from humans or did not match for other unknown reasons" (295:132). While the authors noted that the quality and usefulness of the map should "increasingly improve as the finishing of the human genome sequence proceeds" (295:134), the data already support what creationists have said for years—the 98-99% figure representing DNA similarity is grossly misleading, as revealed in a study carried out by Roy Britten of the California Institute of Technology (see Britten, 2002).
Exactly how misleading came to light in an article—"Jumbled DNA Separates Chimps and Humans"—published in the October 25, 2002 issue of Science. The first three sentences of the article, written by Elizabeth Pennisi (a staff writer for Science), represented a "that was then, this is now" type of admission of defeat. She wrote:
For almost 30 years, researchers have asserted that the DNA of humans and chimps is at least 98.5% identical. Now research reported here last week at the American Society for Human Genetics meeting suggests that the two primate genomes might not be quite as similar after all. A closer look has uncovered nips and tucks of homologous sections of DNA that weren't noticed in previous studies (298:719, emp. added).
Genomicists Kelly Frazer and David Cox of Perlegen Sciences in Mountain View, California, along with geneticists Evan Eichler and Devin Locke of Case Western University in Cleveland, Ohio, compared human and chimp DNA, and discovered a wide range of insertions and deletions (anywhere from between 200 bases to 10,000 bases). Cox commented: "The implications could be profound, because such genetic hiccups could disable entire genes, possibly explaining why our closest cousin seems so distant" (as quoted in Pennisi, 298:721).
Britten analyzed chimp and human genomes with a customized computer program. To quote Pennisi's article:
He compared 779,000 bases of chimp DNA with the sequences of the human genome, both found in the public repository GenBank. Single-base changes accounted for 1.4% of the differences between the human and chimp genomes, and insertions and deletions accounted for an additional 3.4%, he reported in the 15 October [2002] Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences. Locke's and Frazer's groups didn't commit to any new estimates of the similarity between the species, but both agree that the previously accepted 98.5% mark is too high (298:721, emp. added).
While Locke's and Frazer's team was unwilling to commit to any new estimate of the similarity between chimps and humans, Britten was not. In fact, he titled his article in the October 15, 2002 Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, "Divergence between Samples of Chimpanzee and Human DNA Sequences is 5%" (Britten, 99:13633-13635). In the abstract accompanying the article, he wrote: "The conclusion is that the old saw that we share 98.5% of our DNA sequence with chimpanzee is probably in error. For this sample, a better estimate would be that 95% of the base pairs are exactly shared between chimpanzee and human DNA" (99:13633, emp. added). The news service at NewScientist.com reported the event as follows:
It has long been held that we share 98.5 per cent of our genetic material with our closest relatives. That now appears to be wrong. In fact, we share less than 95 per cent of our genetic material, a three-fold increase in the variation between us and chimps.
The new value came to light when Roy Britten of the California Institute of Technology became suspicious about the 98.5 per cent figure. Ironically, that number was originally derived from a technique that Britten himself developed decades ago at Caltech with colleague Dave Kohne. By measuring the temperature at which matching DNA of two species comes apart, you can work out how different they are.
But the technique only picks up a particular type of variation, called a single base substitution. These occur whenever a single "letter" differs in corresponding strands of DNA from the two species.
But there are two other major types of variation that the previous analyses ignored. "Insertions" occur whenever a whole section of DNA appears in one species but not in the corresponding strand of the other. Likewise, "deletions" mean that a piece of DNA is missing from one species.
Together, they are termed "indels," and Britten seized his chance to evaluate the true variation between the two species when stretches of chimp DNA were recently published on the internet by teams from the Baylor College of Medicine in Houston, Texas, and from the University of Oklahoma.
When Britten compared five stretches of chimp DNA with the corresponding pieces of human DNA, he found that single base substitutions accounted for a difference of 1.4 per cent, very close to the expected figure.
But he also found that the DNA of both species was littered with indels. His comparisons revealed that they add around another 4.0 per cent to the genetic differences (see Coghlan, 2002, emp. added).

It seems that, as time passes and scientific studies increase, humans appear to be less like chimps after all. In a separate study, Barbulescu and colleagues also uncovered another major difference in the genomes of primates and humans. In their article "A HERV-K Provirus in Chimpanzees, Bonobos, and Gorillas, but not Humans," the authors wrote: "These observations provide very strong evidence that, for some fraction of the genome, chimpanzees, bonobos, and gorillas are more closely related to each other than they are to humans" (2001, 11:779, emp. added). The data from these results go squarely against what evolutionists have contended for decades—that chimpanzees are closer genetically to humans than they are to gorillas. Another study using interspecies representational difference analysis (RDA) between humans and gorillas revealed gorilla-specific DNA sequences (Toder, et al., 2001)—that is, gorillas possess sequences of DNA that are not found in humans. The authors of this study suggested that sequences found in gorillas but not humans "could represent either ancient sequences that got lost in other species, such as human and orang-utan, or, more likely, recent sequences which evolved or originated specifically in the gorilla genome" (9:431).
The differences between chimpanzees and humans are not limited to genomic variances. In 1998, a structural difference between the cell surfaces of humans and apes was detected. After studying tissues and blood samples from the great apes, and sixty humans from various ethnic groups, Muchmore and colleagues discovered that human cells are missing a particular form of sialic acid (a type of sugar) found in all other mammals (1998, 107[2]:187). This sialic acid molecule is found on the surface of every cell in the body, and is thought to carry out multiple cellular tasks. This seemingly "miniscule" difference can have far-reaching effects, and might explain why surgeons were unable to transplant chimp organs into humans in the 1960s. With this in mind, we never should declare, with a simple wave of the hand, "chimps are almost identical to us" simply because of a large genetic overlap.
Homology (or similarity) does not prove common ancestry. The entire genome of the tiny nematode (Caenorhabditis elegans) also has been sequenced as a tangential study to the human genome project. Of the 5,000 best-known human genes, 75% have matches in the worm (see "A Tiny Worm Challenges Evolution"). Does this mean that we are 75% identical to a nematode worm? Just because living creatures share some genes with humans does not mean there is a linear ancestry. Biologist John Randall admitted this when he wrote:
The older textbooks on evolution make much of the idea of homology, pointing out the obvious resemblances between the skeletons of the limbs of different animals. Thus the "pentadactyl" [five bone—BH/BT] limb pattern is found in the arm of a man, the wing of a bird, and flipper of a whale—and this is held to indicate their common origin. Now if these various structures were transmitted by the same gene couples, varied from time to time by mutations and acted upon by environmental selection, the theory would make good sense. Unfortunately this is not the case. Homologous organs are now known to be produced by totally different gene complexes in the different species. The concept of homology in terms of similar genes handed on from a common ancestor has broken down... (as quoted in Fix, 1984, p.189).
Yet textbooks and teachers still continue to proclaim that humans and chimps are 98% genetically identical. The evidence clearly demonstrates vast molecular differences—differences that can be attributed to the fact that humans, unlike animals, were created in the image and likeness of God (Genesis 1:26-27; see Lyons and Thompson, 2002a, 2002b). Elaine Morgan commented on this difference.
Considering the very close genetic relationship that has been established by comparison of biochemical properties of blood proteins, protein structure and DNA and immunological responses, the differences between a man and a chimpanzee are more astonishing than the resemblances. They include structural differences in the skeleton, the muscles, the skin, and the brain; differences in posture associated with a unique method of locomotion; differences in social organization; and finally the acquisition of speech and tool-using, together with the dramatic increase in intellectual ability which has led scientists to name their own species Homo sapiens sapiens—wise wise man. During the period when these remarkable evolutionary changes were taking place, other closely related ape-like species changed only very slowly, and with far less remarkable results. It is hard to resist the conclusion that something must have happened to the ancestors of Homo sapiens which did not happen to the ancestors of gorillas and chimpanzees (1989, pp. 17-18, emp. added).
That "something" actually is "Someone"—the Creator.

Arrives in 3-7 Business Days
This book concentrates on the topic of physical and chemical equilibrium. Using the simplest mathematics along with numerous numerical examples it accurately and rigorously covers physical and chemical equilibrium in depth and detail. It continues to cover the topics found in the first edition however numerous updates have been made including: Changes in naming and notation (the first edition used the traditional names for the Gibbs Free Energy and for Partial Molal Properties, this edition uses the more popular Gibbs Energy and Partial Molar Properties,) changes in symbols (the first edition used the Lewis-Randal fugacity rule and the popular symbol for the same quantity, this edition only uses the popular notation,) and new problems have been added to the text. Finally the second edition includes an appendix about the Bridgman table and its use.

Never mind the official data, China is already experiencing a hard landing, and there is no 'silver bullet' solution to the country's economic problems, according to China bear Patrick Chovanec.
Chovanec, Associate Professor at Tsinghua University's School of Economics and Management, told CNBC on Thursday that China's economy is, in reality, probably growing at about 4 to 5 percent right now, hampered by a serious slowdown in investment by key industries.
China's economy grew 7.6 percent in the second quarter and it wasn't too long ago that it enjoyed double-digit growth rates.
"I think we are in a hard landing because, putting aside some of the official data, if you look at the numbers that are coming out on the micro level, the profit warnings are already higher than the levels that we saw in early 2009," Chovanec said on CNBC Asia's"Squawk Box," referring to the global financial crisis.
"There are certain key industries that we can look to – steel, construction and equipment manufacturing – that are clearly in contraction right now," he added.
Suning, China's top home appliance retailer, and ZTE, a major maker of telecoms equipment, have both warned that profit for the first half of this year will fall by 30 percent and 80 percent, respectively.
Economic data on Thursday meanwhile provide further signs that perhaps China's economy is slowing more quickly than anticipated.
Annual growth in China's factory output slowed to 9.2 percent in July,the weakest in just over three years and below market expectations of a 9.8 percent increase. Retail sales rose 13.1 percent from a year ago, missing forecasts for a 13.7 percent rise.
China has slashed reserve requirement ratios (RRR) for banks three times since Novemberand cut interest rates twice this year to bolster an economy that has slowed for six consecutive quarters.
"There's no easy silver-bullet solutions in the form of stimulus," he said. "The People's Bank of China has a lot of imperfect tools. You've got interest rates which are way below what a market rate would be. If you lower those rates, you would end up channeling more financing into over-investment as opposed to really rebalancing the economy."
Time for More Monetary Easing?
Now that July's numbers have come in weaker than forecast, economists say the need for another cut to the RRR, or possibly interest rates, has increased.
"This was the month when the stimulus was meant to bite. It didn't," said Alistair Thornton, an economist at IHS Global Insight, referring to the July data.
"In fact, poor macro data signals that the authorities continue to struggle in reviving growth," he added. "New projects have been approved, local governments have been given the all-clear to re-engage with financing platforms, and banks have been leant on to extend additional credit. By all rights, this should be feeding into heightened investment activity. It isn't."
The Chinese government would need to transform its current "stimulus push into a stimulus punch" and encourage "significant" investment activity throughout the country, he added.
Ding Shuang, an economist at Citi, agreed that the time was ripe for Beijing to take action to boost the slowing economy.
"Industrial production is quite sluggish, I think the bottoming out process is not completely over," Shuang told CNBC. "The message is: policy support is still needed. I think the argument has strengthened for a step up in policy but not major stimulus, and sooner rather than later."
However, Ding is not overly concerned about the Chinese economy and expects industrial production will pick up "very marginally in August and September as the RRR and interest-rate cuts take effect."
Zhiwei Zhang, Chief China Economist of Nomura, agrees. Stimulus measures take time to work their way through the system, he added, maintaining his view that GDP growth in the third quarter will be better than the 7.6 percent posted in the second quarter.
He expects further monetary easing via a reduction in RRR in the third quarter.

[Intro - Drake]
Yea, it's Drizzy baby
You already know who it is
It's the first time I'm high
It's the first time I smoked in like 3 months
I'm sorry mama, I had to do it to them
40 I see you
O, I see you homie
I stay late tonight right?
You know what happen when I stay late
Yea, Boi-1da!
I swear it's like this every single time
Toronto I got you
I got us
[Verse 1 - Drake]
I'm a hard guy to get along with, get on a song with
When shit be going right, well I just flip it to the wrong shit
The team that I belong to, the artists I put on with
Don't ever ask for nothing cause them niggas got their own shit
Me and Weezy are like a mouth full of hot peppers
Black Ferrari with the red seats, I call it "playing checkers"
I'm never doing verses, I'm forever giving lectures
If you trying to meet with money I'll be happy to connect ya
Life is better than it's ever been
Scheduling million-dollar meetings with the President
Someone cut the lights on! Where is Thomas Edison?
Got a a new condo, watch me as I settle in
I deserve a MTV show for me and my people
And if you trying to zone, I got a whole Swisher Sweet full
Rappers are liars and their women are deceitful
Add until they subtract me, I'll never be your equal
Last Place Drizzy is the nigga in the lead now
Weezy told me just write every single thing you need down
And he got it for me and I'm as happy can be now
Bout to start ballin' like I'm coming off a rebound
Yea, and I should have the most bragging rights
Because the nigga spit crack, bag it tight
Hate when rappers say they trying to get their swagger right
Cause I dunn came on more fire than a dragon fight
Fuck you pussy ass hater you should do you
You ain't heard of me then you should go and get a Blue's Clue?
Oops! I mean a red clue; Wayne's here, Soo-woo!
Bet he felt that like the end of a pool cue
But I ain't banging, I ain't waving no flag
I'm ATF but they ain't seeing no badge
It's Heartbreak Drake I hate to see him so sad
I can son you, see a little me in your dad
I'm the same yellow boy that used to play up on the Degrassi
Can pocket 20 thousand to be anywhere they ask me
Cash like Johnny, Banks like Ashley
Burnin' like a Camel Light; stupid ho, ash me
But don't ask me shit about me
And no the game really ain't shit without me
She might have to pay me but I dick her down free
Wanna know if it's the truth then pull the zipper down and see
No homo though
[Verse 2 - Lil Wayne]
Yea, um, I'm going in
Drizzy I got us, this is my promise
Ima bring that barrel to them bitches' eyeliners
And what I make up, would fuck up your skin
I pick the buck up and buck-buck then buck-buck again
I would butt-fuck your friend
Then suck up her twin, I put the buck-up to him
Then buck-buck and buck-buck and buck-buck again
Suck nut, you duck, fuck your unloving kin, now don't rub it in
Like Lubriderm on a new tattoo I had to
Kick my princess up out my castle
Dad, who? Never had that dude, always had a black tool
Even when I was at school, cause bullies aren't bullet-proof
Red scarf, hoody too, probably ain't as hood as you
Stupid motherfucker the only thing in the hood is you
I do everything good as you, no I do everything better
I get paid for every letter, A-B-C, et cetera
Fetch a bone. Like a dog motherfucker I am going for your neck
In a sec, intercept, bring it back like work in a trunk
And my exit coming up, yup I am headed to the buck like
Buck-buck again! Might fly to L.A and just fuck Karrine
Nahh fuck Karrine! Lets get bucks again, and fuckin' spend
Them bucks, and then, just fuck Karrine
If I told you I'mma do it, I did it
Got my city on my fitted, bout to pop it, let's get it
Lets get it motherfucker whatcha waitin on
It is bout a minute past pissed and I'm about to get shitted
I'm with it if money is the it you want me with
And I probly just spit on the chick you won't be with
And I hate a boney bitch only like em only thick
And I own hip-hop, if you don't spit I'm gon' evict
And I just sold a lot of property to a buyer
And I think his name was kinda like Drake Drizzy Rogers
Or Drizzy Drake Rogers I'm too busy to play father
And when it comes to the game I'm too willing to play harder
So harder I go, there he go
They chant MVP when I shoot a free throw
C.E.O., Jas what it do
The haters on their face and in their ass is a shoe
Faster than you, badder than you, radder than you, et cetera
I told ya, I get paid by the letter like
ZZ Top, yes he rock
And me and Drizzy both wrote on Detox
That was just a foot note, how long can he could go
Wondering when he stop, bitch when the beat stop
So I'mma keep rockin' to the sheet rock bend
Then the heat I send burn skin, the end
[Outro: Lil Wayne]
Young mula, baby, uhh
The song of Wayne and Drake's union, recorded soon after they met
No hooks on this song because Weezy and Drizzy are giving lectures – QUIET IN THE BACK!

Babies and small children need early treatment for asthma symptoms to prevent severe breathing problems. They may have more serious problems than adults because their bronchial tubes are smaller.
Although it may appear that occasional treatment with medicines for children who have mild asthma is enough, one review has noted that one-third of fatal asthma attacks occurred in children who had mild asthma.footnote 1 Even if your child's asthma does not appear severe, work with your doctor to make the right plan for your child.
The National Asthma Education and Prevention Program (NAEPP) recommends treatment with long-term medicines for infants and young children who:footnote 2

The Mortal CoilEdit
The Mortal Coil is the world as we know it. Everything in the cosmos is a byproduct of something originating from the Mortal Coil though it is unclear whether gods created it originally or if it simply was.
The IthEdit
The Ith is a dream world that is shaped by every thought or emotion ever felt by beings on the Coil. It is a strange realm that mortals are only aware of by its direct association with magic. Only brief glimpses of the Ith by mages of legendary status have allowed mortals to accept the Ith as a reality and those that have seen it can only describe it as a mass of swirling white fog containing half formed shapes both glorious and horrifying. Though the Ith is extremely hard for Mortals to affect, the Ith influences every creature in existence and sometimes manifests in a physical form. This substance, know as Tass, or Essence of the Gods in the Old Tongue, is the staple form of magical power and is used in the creation of magic items.
The BetweenEdit
When the first of the High Mages opened the fragile doorway to the Ith, a small crack formed in the cosmos due to their efforts. Almost immediately this crack began to widen and sucked many of the Mages through, including the leader of the Order known as Tremm. This fissure was utterly dark and endlessly siphoned Tass from the Ith, absorbing it into the darkness and sending out a wave of magical entropy that crumbled the Silver Empire. The catastrophe was forever known as Tremm's Hex and since then the Darkness of the Void has been an ever present threat to those who would wield magic.

Last weekend I performed at Ice Dreams in Jamestown, N.Y. Ice Dreams is a wonderful opportunity for top figure skaters to perform alongside the youth of our sport. The show's creator, Tara Modlin-King, is a past national level competitor herself and understands the value of being young and making a goal to be the best. Through Ice Dreams she has also sought to define a skating show where young skaters can perform alongside their idols in a dynamic show that entertains thousands.
A few weeks prior to our performance in Jamestown, I joined Modlin-King on a talent search in nearby Syracuse, where I could watch and interact with the young skaters firsthand and make sure they were all excited to perform in the show. It is incredible how many skaters continue to turn up for the searches that I've been doing with Ms. Modlin-King for years. They come, they get made-up and in costume, and perform for us, like a showcase, and it makes me so proud of the youth in our sport and how hardworking they are. All the kids were performing to skate in a group number where the best would be selected to have a "step out," where the attention goes from the group, to them.
Included with the 50 young talents were amazing champions like U.S. champion Max Aaron, who last year became the first skater since my title in 2004 to qualify for the national championships through their respective sectional competitions and win the national title. We also had seven-time Estonian champion and Olympian Elena Glebova, as well as a rising American talent in Samantha Cesario. To skate with great skaters makes the show not only more exciting for the audience, but also for us seasoned veterans.
I was lucky enough to not only skate my two programs, but also to choreograph three group numbers featuring all of our talented skaters. It was my first time choreographing for a group and it was no easy feat. Getting a bunch of star skaters all to listen at the same time is like herding cats, but in the end, with enough frost bitten toes and long hours rehearsing, we got it right. I could not have accomplished it without talented Canadian ice dancing medalist Piper Gilles or my long years of being barked at by my own coaches.
The show went flawlessly. The arena seats on offer were filled and the audience was loud and appreciative. Not one fall or even a flaw made the show a startling success. All the skaters enjoyed themselves, especially those kids who we were so proud to skate with. When the final spotlight shut off and we were all standing around to take a final bow, Glebova looked at me with emotion filled eyes and said, "I wish this show wouldn't end."
The thing about performing in shows is that we have the opportunity to leave the stress and anguish of competition behind and skate the way we want. We have the ability to captivate an audience by more than the worry of what the judges might say. You have the opportunity to move and dance in ways you usually wouldn't with the strict rules of competition. You can find your inner Beyonce/Sasha Fierce combination and fly around the ice for the pure love and pride in what you do. Shows and performing are a fundamental part of why I love what I do. I can take people on a journey – my journey – and do it as I see fit.
I am already excited about the next Ice Dreams show next month (June 2) in Oakland, Calif., and welcoming some new star skaters to the roster, but more importantly, welcoming a whole West Coast slew of young talent who hope to skate with their idols and live a dream, on ice.

Families are the cornerstone of society. As such, your family is vitally important to you; it will be to me, too. While families can be a great source of joy, they can also be frustrating, even maddening at times! While there's no such thing as "the perfect family," we can start by trying to understand your family's particular dynamic. If we work together, we'll talk about effective communication, respect, and boundaries, and we'll laugh while we do it, because chances are your kids don't want to be there anyway. Family therapy can be tough enough without it be boring, too. Let's get together and see what we can do to make things better for your family.

Contributor(s): THL Staff
Our software is in general built and maintained using SourceForge.com. Source Forge is an array of servers and tools devoted to storing the underlying source code for software in such a way that multiple programmers can work on the code, and periodically submit their fixes, updates and enhancements. All software stored on Source Forge is "open source", which means not only can it be freely used by anyone, but the actual source code is made available to people so that it can be altered for new usages by anyone. The great power of the open source movement is that it discourages the syndrome of reinventing the wheel, and encourages collaborative development of computing resources.
However, this source code as it is revised must still be complied into a functional program that an end user can install and use. For our Java software, we use the following process to make these revisions available to the end-user immediately. To begin with, the SourceForge servers only have the source code (here is an example )
This source code must then be "compiled" to form a usable program, which is termed a "build". We use a tool called Ant to invoke the Java compiler. End users only install "Java", which does not include a Java compiler - only developers use the Java compiler. A nightly build then is when a program checks every night for new source code, and if available, compiles a new "build" so that end users can take advantage of the changes in their use of the program. SourceForge doesn't offer the resources to use their computers for nightly builds, so an external server has to be relied upon to do this. The Process
The external server (such as UVa's orion.lib.virginia.edu), does the following steps each night:
Java Web Start is a technology that allows users with Java installed on their computers to install the software over the Web. Once installed, whenever the program is launched on a computer connected to the Internet, it will check the server to see if there is a new version of the software, and if there is one, automatically install the update. When it works perfectly, it's a very convenient process.
Other Web pages can invoke the software installation or launch directly from their web pages through a simple HTML reference tag (a href) pointing to the ".jnlp" file on server where the JWS files for the software are located.
To actually set up a separate nightly build on an external server takes about four to eight hours of initial set up for someone who knows how to do it. If this is a secondary nightly build - so that one doesn't have to worry about the server stability on the primary nightly build which might be kept on the developer's server), maintenance then can be quite low (say, 2 hours per calendar year) because the secondary server can actually grab the developer's changes so long as his/her nightly build script is CVS-controlled on SourceForge.
Compiling everything, and building the API documentation for developers (see an example), and running the tests that let the developers know that nothing is broken (see an example), can take 15-90 minutes on a server like orion. There's a lot of tedious stuff to do on an external server for a first set of nightly builds, but a second set is less work because you already have a Java compiler and Ant installed on the server, the server is aware of Java Web Start, and so forth.

Ian Martin presents his latest gift to the world: the invisible bedroom
MONDAY My latest gift to the world is the invisible bedroom. Internal walls are made of transparent 'hard air'® blocks. The space itself is saturated with ionised nanospheric optical glanceback 'gnobules' (patent applied for), which trick the human brain into wanting to go to the toilet urgently.
I'm hoping my invisible bedroom will hoodwink the portly new army of government bedroom tax inspectors. Bring it on, you fat bumptious jobsworths.
TUESDAY To semi-rural Essex, where a beta version of the invisible bedroom has been created in a local authority house occupied by my old friend Amy Blackwater, the ecomentalist and recently disabled activist.
She's been a bit down in the dumps lately, what with having to use a wheelchair, antagonising all her carers, being told she's fit for work and threatened with financial penalties for having too many rooms.
The latest indignity is being threatened with the loss of social security benefits altogether unless she takes her balaclava off.
WEDNESDAY 'Those squares and breadheads can do one,' she says firmly when I arrive. 'My bally is an expression of who I am. It's my turban, or burqa. I am sick of people telling me they can't see my face. This IS my face. And it's wearing a balaclava, OK?'
Great to see you too.
She burbles on crossly while I check the invisible bedroom, giving it a final spritz of glanceback gnobules before the inspector arrives.
Oh here he is now, pulling up outside in his silver saloon. A few muffled bars of Don't Stop Believin' by Journey, then the engine stops, paperwork is gathered and a chubby, prematurely middle-aged G4S bedroom inspector beetles purposefully up to the front door. He seems completely at ease with his own cruel destiny, like an overweight Tarantino Nazi.
When Amy opens the door he simply holds his hand up and continues to huff into one of those ridiculous earpieces that look like a child's kazoo.
'Yeah, at first address now, over. Wheelie present. Roger that. Entering premises. Going offline, over. Right love, I've come to count your bedrooms, yeah?
What's going on with the mask then? Been in a fire, or you in a band or something? Who's this, your Dad?'
'Show us your ID,' demands Amy. 'For all I know you're just some fat knobhead with a clipboard'.
There's an uneasy silence while he fishes out and flourishes his inspector card.
'OK, Pussy Riot? Now, let's count your fucking bedrooms.' Man, it was worth every tedious second developing the hard air/gnobule prototypes with my nanotechnologist mate Beansy just to see Fat Bedroom Cop's face wrinkled into a Martian landscape by unaccustomed brainwork.
'It says here this is two-bed…' 'Well how many bedrooms can you SEE?' I can hear Amy say. I'm inside the locked bathroom.
'Can I use your toilet?' 'No. It's engaged. You'll have to go down the pub.' 'I'm desperate!' 'Sorry love, that's the way the world is. You brought this on yourself…'
I can hear Fatso ringing in to say Amy's house is one-bedroom and that he needs the toilet and he's going to the pub, over. Then a loud crack. Then silence. Then Amy humming Don't Stop Believin'.
THURSDAY This is the worst day out with Amy since that time I helped her with her animal laboratory thing.
I was always against the firebombing, it was a late work by the Smithsons.
But burying a bedroom tax inspector in Epping Forest is worse. Dead people weigh a TON.
Yesterday's just a blur of gloves and fingerprint removal and driving the car to the pub and walking very quickly back, then heaving the body into the boot of Amy's car - 'don't look at me, I'm in a bloody wheelchair' - then discovering this is the THIRD inspector Amy's murdered since the legislation came into effect earlier this year.
And to think my invisible bedroom was conceived as a force for good.
FRIDAY Amy's interviewed by the police. Inspector Morose has been listed as a missing person and they're trying to trace his final movements.
There's a faint smell in the hallway still from his last involuntary toilet break. Feel a bit sorry for Amy, who'll no doubt be blamed.
SATURDAY Moral dilemma. Maintain the invisible bedroom, or remove the incriminating invisible evidence?
SUNDAY Lie low in the recliner, waiting for a knock on the door.

Internship Opportunities
The Department administers a variety of internship programs. It encourages qualified majors to consider an internship experience as a means of clarifying their career goals, applying classroom learning to practical situations, and gaining valuable work experience in preparation for post-graduation employment.
In addition, students may request Departmental assistance in arranging for academic credit. Recent students have interned with the Governor of Maryland's Office, the Maryland General Assembly, the U.S. Congress, the League of Women Voters, the Blue Cross/Blue Shield lobby in Annapolis, C-SPAN, a States Attorney, and political consultants.
The Maryland General Assembly Internship Program, offered as part of the political science curriculum for majors and non-majors, allows students to gain firsthand knowledge of the legislative process and Maryland politics. Students spend two days a week in Annapolis during the spring semester working for a state legislator. Interns also meet on campus for a weekly seminar, which includes reading assignments and written work. Two course credits are given for successful completion of the internship.
Career Opportunities in Political Science
The Washington Center Internship program allows students to undertake a full-time, semester-long internship in Washington, DC, with a federal government, political, or non-profit agency. Depending upon their interest and internship placement, students may attend hearings, conduct policy research, draft correspondence, monitor legislation, lobby members of Congress, and write analytical reports. Students will create an in-depth portfolio of their internship experience. They also take one seminar course and participate in a forum consisting of lectures, site visits, small group discussions, briefings, and other required events designed to help them understand the connection between their academic and professional goals and the special educational opportunities available through living and working in Washington, DC. Four course credits are awarded for successful completion of this program.
The Washington Semester and World Capitals Programs, conducted by The American University, are open to juniors and first-semester seniors in good academic standing. The Washington Semester Program is an opportunity to observe government in action and includes study with government officials and exposure to government bureaus, agencies, and departments. A Washington Semester student will be able to earn a full semester of credit by pursuing a course of study in one of the following seven areas: American government and public law, foreign policy, peace and conflict resolution, economic policy, international environment and development, justice, and journalism.
The Department of Political Science and the International Studies Program have a special arrangement with the Hansard Society for Parliamentary Government that enables students to spend a semester in London. Hansard Scholars are assigned to work as assistants to members of the House of Common and the House of Lords, the political parties, and public and social policy and research institutes. All placements involve responsible work and are closely supervised by the Hansard Society. The internship placements are accompanied by three courses at the London School of Economics. Students take Politics and Public Policy, Politics and Parliament, and a supervised research project. Students enrolled in the Hansard Scholars Programme in London take the following courses:

hill245 necesitaba un nuevo diseño de logotipo y lanzó un concurso de diseño en 99designs.
Un ganador ha sido elegido entre 314 diseños de 93 diseñadores freelance.
We are launching an exciting new software product in the world of media consumption on TV and are in need of compelling brand identity.
Our product enables users to enjoy their favorite online videos, music and games in HD glory on their television. Our patented pointing technology allows intuitive interaction from the comfort of a couch. Users looking to enhance their traditional cable or satellite experience will find a wealth of engaging content through Kylo.
We are looking for a logo with sincerity, color, and all the shine and polish expected from a "Web 2.0" identity. The logo should be able to hold its own when placed amongst its peers: Firefox, Skype, Miro, etc. We are ultimately looking for elegance over embellishments to encourage a broader set of users.
Kylo's users will have (or desire to have) a PC or Mac connected to their HDTV. They may be actively looking to break away from traditional TV provider options, or they may be interested in augmenting their living room experience with online movies, shows and original web videos. Users may be from a broad age range.
We need a full logo that contains a graphic treatment for the name "Kylo". This logo should have a component or variation that can be used as a desktop icon that does not contain the full "Kylo" name. This icon should look beautiful at 512x512, and still be legible at 64x64.
The logo should be delivered as a Photoshop (PSD) or Illustrator (EPS, AI, SVG) file. Vector over bitmap graphics are highly encouraged.
Please do not use stock art or derivative materials. Original compositions only. The final product should not contain any representative imagery that could be easily confused with products in a similar space (ie. Compasses, power icons, etc.)
Thanks for bringing your creativity to our dynamic product team! Good luck!
We have less than 2 days to go until the end of the contest. We've decided that we want to let this thing run to the end before we pick a winner. There have been a few really fantastic designs, and we are very confident that 99 Designs was a great way for us to explore new talent.
So, with so little time left, I'm posting a new mission to make things exciting...
Most of our favorite designs so far have fallen more in the realm of the abstract. The prominent design element has been the letter "K". What we'd like to see now are more creative illustrations of the convergence of TV and the Internet.
Any new designs should follow some pretty strict guidelines: The text "Kylo" should be lowercase in a reasonably non-customized font. Make it metallic or Web2.0 shiny or whatever you feel makes the design pop, but don't overdesign the text. The focus should be on the iconic element. It should look good from far away. It will appear as a visual element in the UI. It should also look like a desktop icon. It can incorporate a "K" if you feel strongly about it, but it needs to represent "Web on TV" in some creative fashion. 3D elements are *highly* encouraged.
