LOUISVILLE, Ky. – The staff of Deer & Deer Hunting is on hand at the annual Archery Trade Association show to find some of the newest archery and hunting gear, so be sure to check in throughout the day for updates …
Carbon Express Launchpad Illuminated Nock
Top shooters know nocks are important for consistent, accurate arrow flight, which is what led Carbon Express engineers to develop the patent-pending LAUNCHPAD Illuminated Precision Nock.
LAUNCHPAD Illuminated Precision Nocks are like no other nocks available today. In the past, lighted nocks focused on brightness and battery life. LAUNCHPAD changes this with the first lighted nock engineered for better arrow performance. Carbon Express designed this nock to ensure consistency at all critical launch-points to allow hunters to shoot better no matter what arrow they are using.
LAUNCHPAD Illuminated Nocks are balanced and manufactured with four-axis consistency and straightness within 0.001″, which ensures truest flight. LAUNCHPAD nocks are engineered to help you shoot better, featuring precise contact points, precision aligned nock barrels and a concentric design.
The engineering expertise Carbon Express has applied to LAUNCHPAD ensures an optimal combination of weight, brightness and battery life, all delivered with minimal reduction of arrow front-of-center (FOC). The shooter can expect accuracy, speed and precision.
Accuracy: breakthrough design ensures straightest flight
Speed: lightest weight delivers flatter trajectory
Precision: exact tolerances provide consistency every time
LAUNCHPAD fits all Carbon Express carbon hunting arrows and most non-Carbon Express branded "standard sized" carbon hunting arrows with internal arrow shaft diameter .243″ to .245″.

G5 Halo Capture Rest
G5 Outdoors has added the new Halo Capture Rest to its stable of archery equipment.
With its independent adjustable launcher arms, this full capture rest can be adjusted to any size arrow shaft, including micro diameter arrows. The ambidextrous Halo Capture Rest features forward flexing arms that spring out of the way of the arrow's path for maximum forgiveness and accuracy.
"With the ever changing arrow market, we felt the need to develop a rest that would allow an archer to quickly and easily take his rest and make it work with whatever arrow he is shooting," said Matt Grace, President of G5 Outdoors.
The Halo Capture is available in black and has a MAP of $49.99.

TenPoint Crossbows Omni-Nock
TenPoint Crossbow Technologies recently introduced its patent pending Omni-Nock, an all-purpose nock that eliminates the need to choose between moon nocks, capture nocks, or flat nocks.
The Omni-Nock features six micro-grooves that form three string alignment channels. This design eliminates improper loading accidents that can occur with moon and capture nocks.
"With the addition of the Omni-Nock, we are now the one-stop source for crossbow arrows," said TenPoint CEO Rick Bednar. "Regardless of which arrow you shoot, the Omni-Nock improves accuracy and makes moon, capture, and flat nocks obsolete."
In addition, it prevents flat-nock "shoot-over" or "shoot-under" that can happen with the acute string angles common on today's longer power-stroke and reverse-draw models, and with narrow bow assembly designs. Even if the vane is slightly misaligned when the arrow is loaded, the Omni-Nock will self-correct the alignment as acceleration begins.
The nock comes standard on the company's five-arrow Easton lineup of lightweight, standard-weight, and heavyweight crossbow arrows.

G5 Outdoors Meta Peep Sight
G5 Outdoors has taken a look at all components on bows and introduces the META Aluminum Peep Sight.
Featuring 7075 aluminum construction, this performance peep sight is stronger and lighter than magnesium or 6000 series aluminum sights, making it a better fit for today's high performance bows.
"In the process of designing the Prime bow, we identified components that needed to be updated to better suite these high performance bows," said Matt Grace, President of G5 Outdoors. "The META peep was one of those components. Our engineers understand that even the smallest component can determine the success or failure of a hunt."
By creating a thinner profile through internal radial design, more light is allowed through the peep for a clearer, wider field of view.
The META Aluminum Peep Sight is available in four high contrast colors: red, blue, pink and green and in three sizes, 3/16″, ¼" and 5/16″. The new META Aluminum Peep has a MAP of $9.95.

Microsoft on Tuesday issued a "beta refresh" of its upcoming Windows Live Essentials 2011 applications suite for Windows Vista and 7. (See my review for more information about Windows Live Essentials 2011; I'll be updating the review with information about new features later today.) Here's what's new:
UPDATED: I've added a few new items below. This should be just about all the new features in this release.
Windows Live Startup. The new install experience lets you choose between a default install (all client solutions) or a custom install, where you can pick and choose. You can also change the language at install time.
Bug fixes and performance improvements. All of the applications in Windows Live Essentials 2011 have received the expected tweaks. There is new "2011" branding on some of the apps.
Messenger. You can now chat with your Facebook friends in real time using Windows Live Messenger, further enhancing the one-time IM app's social connection capabilities.
Mail. The big improvement in this release, curiously, is Gmail related: Mail now "understands" the default Gmail "folder" organizational structure and provides quick access to other Gmail folders, like Sent, Drafts, Spam, and Trash. Photo Mails that utilize SkyDrive for storage can now be configured not to expire. Content pasted in from Word and other Office applications can now retain its original formatting as well.
Photo Gallery: Microsoft's photo management solution will now recognized geo-tagged photos and give you the option to display the location the shot was taken in Bing Maps (on the web). I recently purchased a GPS-enabled camera for my current trip to Germany, so here's what the Bing Maps integration looks like (it's not nearly as seamless as in Google Picasa):
Photo Gallery also gets a "refresh" of the facial recognition functionality that debuted in previous betas, making it more accurate and reliable. It also makes suggestions based on previous tags and uses logic to deduce who is in the picture to for more intuitive tagging in the future. The Find gallery--which appears when you search for photos in your collection--now features live previews on hover and support for multiple filters.
Movie Maker. There are a few new features here, including a Snapshot toolbar button for creating a screenshot of a particular video frame, and an enhanced video scrubbing. You can also upload VGA (640 x 480) video to SkyDrive, and, for the first time, upload video to Flickr.
Writer. Microsoft's excellent blog editor gets a small update related to recent posts and drafts, where the most recent of each are available in-line in the File menu and via Writer's Jump List, and better spell checking. And as with Mail, Writer can import Office-based content without losing formatting.
Family Safety picks up improved Alerts management and Activity reporting.
Outlook Connector is renamed to Outlook Connector Pack for some reason and has a streamlined new Hotmail Settings interface.
More features are on the way. Despite the fact that the final release of Windows Live Essentials 2011 is only "a few months away," Microsoft plans to add a few more new features by then. No word yet on whether those features will necessitate another public beta (or RC) release.

"I love cooking because I love to get my hands dirty, burn myself, and get scars," Giannakis said with a smile. "I am a hands iron chef."
His culinary obsession led him to work in prestigious restaurants like AVRA Restaurant, Rao's Restaurant, SanSa Cafe & Restaurant, and with chefs like David Burke at Park Avenue Cafe and Bobby Flay. In 2003, Time Out Magazine featured an article on his dishes.
Born and raised in Bayside, Giannakis grew up with his dad's advice about trying to make money with a suit and tie instead of working with his hands. So he went to Queens College and studied finance and marketing, but his passion for cooking grew stronger and stronger, which led him to go to Culinary Institute of America for his graduate degree in 2000. He later joined the Syosset Culinary Academy in Long Island as a culinary instructor.
"I brought with me all this business knowledge about how to properly market menus, ideas and even market myself," said Giannakis.
In 2009, Giannakis decided to take the position of supervisor chef for Mets VIP lounge at Citi Field. In 2011, he was named executive chef at New York University and in charge of serving 10,000 to 15,000 students per day in four different residential halls.
"At NYU, I had to make sure that we followed strict nutritional guidelines, giving proper portions, as well as nutritional facts," said Giannakis.
From stadium cooking to college cooking, it became more of a corporate job for Giannakis than he wanted to be. He was not cook anymore, instead delegating foods. He felt he had lost touch with his passion.
"I love being in the kitchen, and I am not one who likes to sit down with the clipboard," said Giannakis. "I realized I needed to get back into the kitchen and cook, cut, chop, and fry."
So, when longtime family friend Andrew Moshopoulos asked him to become a partner of Metro Kitchen three months ago, Giannakis gladly took the opportunity. He hopes to take Metro Kitchen to another level with trendy style and elegant dishes.
"I had to jump at the opportunity that allows me back into the kitchen where I can do the cooking, take the dinner to a next level, and serve beautiful plates," he said.
Giannakis's future plan is to create his own little market on Long Island, where people can experience great food at a great price.
"I want bring a new approach to food on Long Island that people have not seen before," he said.
While designing a chicken salad plate, Giannakis compared his work with the entertainment business. Everyday he puts on the show at lunch and dinner, and as the curtain goes up he orchestrates his kitchen crew.
"It is like a dance show, where if we do it right and entertain people they will want to come back again for another entertaining evening," said Giannakis.

In fact, we know of only animal apart from humans to regularly engage in fellatio – the short-nosed fruit bat (Cynopterus sphinx).

CME Group announced Monday that it has completed its acquisition of the Kansas City Board of Trade (KCBT), adding hard red winter (HRW) wheat to its offering of agricultural products.
The deal was originally announced in October, and received regulatory approval from the U.S. Federal Trade Commission the following month. Under the terms of the acquisition, CME Group will pay $126 million in cash for KCBT, and will also make a special distribution of excess cash to members upon closing.
"We're pleased to complete this transaction, combining KCBT Hard Red Winter Wheat products with our deep and liquid CBOT Soft Red Winter Wheat futures and options markets," said CME Group Executive Chairman and President Terry Duffy. "The integration of these two global wheat benchmarks will provide new trading opportunities to commercial grain market participants, wheat traders and customers who continue to rely on these tools to manage their price risk."
CME and CBOT members and KCBT permit holders will immediately be able to trade each other's wheat futures and options products on the CME Globex platform. Starting Dec. 10, the interexchange KCBT-CBOT Wheat futures spread will also be available for trading on Globex.
Once KCBT's clearing services have been integrated, customers will also be able to take advantage of cross-margining and other capital efficiencies, according to CME. That integration will take place over several years, as CME has pledged to continue operations of the KCBT trading floor for at least six months and to maintain a KCBT market participant committee to advise on HRW wheat contracts for at least three years. CME will introduce a timeline for the integration of clearing systems in the first quarter of 2013.
Last year, the average daily futures volume for KCBT wheat was 25,170 contracts, while the average daily volume of CME wheat contracts was 96,362.

British singer Lily Allen fears her newborn daughter may be suffering from jaundice.
The Smile hitmaker, who is also known by her married name Lily Rose Cooper, gave birth to her second baby, Marnie, last week, and she took to her Twitter.com blog over the weekend to publicly complain about her postnatal treatment from Britain's National Health Service (NHS).
Directing her message to the NHS Direct service operators, she wrote, "Hi there, can't seem to find out which hospital's community midwifery team are coming to see me… I'm starting to worry now, and no one answers the phone, or if they do, I just keep getting passed around. Let me know if you can (help)."
Allen, who was discharged from hospital last Wednesday, was instructed to find the appropriate phone number on the organisation's website to contact medical officials, and she was able to set up an appointment to check on her baby on Monday.
However, the star was still waiting for a visit from midwives hours later and she now worries little Marnie may be suffering from a yellowing of the skin, relating to a liver problem.
Keeping her Twitter followers up to date with her healthcare issues, she writes, "So after speaking to the Brent midwifery team at 7 this morning, I was told to stay in all day and someone would be over to weigh my baby And do a jaundice assessment as I've been a bit worried. Waited all day, and nothing, not even a phone call. She'll be a week old tomorrow."
Allen – who is also mom to 18-month-old daughter Ethel with her husband Sam Cooper – admits she feels terrible complaining about the lack of service she has received, but she insists it's important to raise issues to fix the NHS so other new moms get the support they need.
She adds, "I don't mean to moan and I know how over stretched the health service is. But I can't help but think about how mothers with less support, Both financially and emotionally are meant to cope. What if I was having real problems. I haven't been able to get an answer on the phone. I know it's not the midwives themselves' fault, they are generally angels but surely we can do better than this."

STOCKTON - Kareem Abdul-Jabbar is a basketball icon.
STOCKTON - Kareem Abdul-Jabbar is a basketball icon.
He also is an author, historian, lecturer and film maker, just to name several of his talents. The three-time NCAA champion with coach John Wooden at UCLA, who went on to become the NBA's all-time leading scorer, spoke about his passion for writing, his interest in history and how teamwork in the athletic arena can be useful in the business world.
Looking svelt in a dark gray suit and light gray tie, the inventor of the "sky-hook" gave an impactful 45-minute speech and answered questions from some in the capacity crowd at the Faye Spanos Concert Hall on Tuesday as part of Pacific's celebration of Black History Month.
"A lot of the goals that Dr. (Martin Luther) King and the other members of the Civil Rights movement thought were important, we've only gotten halfway there," said the 65-year-old, 7-foot-2, six-time NBA champion center with the Milwaukee Bucks and Los Angeles Lakers. "We've just really come out of the woods, so to speak, in terms of economic strength and political strength, and those are things that have to be built on."
Abdul-Jabbar said he has spent the past several years indulging himself with his love of writing. He has authored seven books, including "What Color is My World?" which earned him an NAACP Image Award earlier this month. He also received an NAACP Image Award earlier this month for his documentary "On the Shoulders of Giants - the Story of the Greatest Team You've Never Heard Of."

Today's Geeky Must-Read: Memos from S.H.I.E.L.D. Director Nick Fury
One of our new (okay, it's not that new) favorite Tumblr blogs is "Memos from Fury," which consists of a collection of hilarious company memos from S.H.I.E.L.D. director Nick Fury, played by Samuel L. Jackson in all the recent Marvel movies, including The Avengers. The memos, which obviously do not come from Marvel and are in no way official, give us a comedic look at the day-to-day life of what goes on inside S.H.I.E.L.D., from Tony Stark's attempts to throw drinking contests to the many practical jokes shoveled out at the expense of Steve Rogers.
Marvel has attempted this sort of day-in-the-life of S.H.I.E.L.D. in the shorts the company is attaching to each of the DVD/Blu-rays, but seeing this sort of interoffice politics applied to S.H.I.E.L.D. and its assortment of superheroes just sorta makes our day. Here's hoping they play around with these ideas in future Marvel movies without making it too shticky.
Check out five of our favorites below, and tons more over at Memos from Fury.

Google Hotel Finder Arrives
Google has today launched Hotel Finder, a new search tool to help you find a hotel.
The tool includes an interesting Google Maps interface that allows you to search for hotels by location. When you enter a location into the Hotel Finder the map shows an initial shape based on the most popular area for visitors to stay. Users can drag the shape to define more closely this area, e.g. close to the ocean or along Sunset Boulevard.
Hotel Finder also shines a "tourist spotlight" on the most visited areas in the selected city. Tools in the sidebar allow you to adjust the price of hotels you wish to view on the map and to compare the current price to the hotel's typical price.

When famous folks majorly goof, apologies often follow. Unless you're Donald Trump. Here's our top five favorite mea culpas of the year.
5. "Also, I'm sorry for the confusion that I may of caused to those at the Coroner's office. Won't happen again, now I know where to go! Thank you for your help." — Lindsay Lohan
After tweeting that she has "never been so happy to go to therapy!!!!" Lohan followed up with this apology for being 40 minutes late to court-ordered Los Angeles county morgue duty. It's the sort-of thing that's necessary when your probation is revoked, but perhaps a lawyer could have made sure she knew where to go in the first place?
4. I didn't mean it. I don't have a hateful bone in my body. I don't believe that anyone should be bullied or just made to feel bad about who they are." — Tracy Morgan
At his best, Morgan is edgy and hilariously deadpan-clueless on "30 Rock." At his worst, he does stand-up where says that if his son was a homosexual, he'd "pull out a knife and stab" him. A few weeks later, Morgan visited the scene of his statement-crime, Nashville, Tenn., to issue an apology in a press conference organized by GLAAD. "I don't really see gay or straight, I just see human beings," he added.
3. "I sincerely apologize to anyone who was offended by my attempt at humor regarding the tragedy in Japan. I meant no disrespect, and my thoughts are with the victims and their families." — Gilbert Gottfried
When a tragedy such as the Japanese tsunami happens, perhaps it's best to wait awhile before making a seriously offensive joke. Or several of them. Gottfried, instead, decided to use his Twitter feed not to express sympathy with the victims or help raise money, but to make fun of them. "I just split up with my girlfriend, but like the Japanese say, 'They'll [sic] be another one floating by any minute now," was one of many such tweets. Funny! We never felt more dismayed by the now-former voice of the Aflac Duck.
2. "I brought pain to people I care about the most and the people who believed in me, and for that I'm deeply sorry." — Anthony Weiner
Weiner's apology seemed genuine. It also was one massive overshare. After apologizing for lying about inappropriate relationships with women other than his wife (sexting, beefcake gym photos, not-actual-sex-but-totally-suggesting-sex-could-happen messages), the former congressman, resigning from office, outlined all the ways he talked with women he met online during the past few years: Twiter, Facebook, email, and an old-fashioned Zack Morris cell phone (we assume). Oh, and he said he was sorry for pretending he had been hacked. Weinergate, welcome to the lexicon.
"The thought of the leaders of both parties jukin' [sic] and high fiven' [sic] on a golf course, while so many families are struggling to get by, simply made me boil over and make a dumb statement, and I am very sorry if it offended anyone. I would like to thank all my supporters. This was not written by some publicist." Hank Williams Jr.
By our count, the only apology of 2011 to include the "words" jukin and fiven, Williams long-winded statement came after he compared President Barack Obama to Adolf Hitler on "Fox and Friends," which had apparently believed the country singer would provide insightful political commentary. He described the Obama-Hitler analogy as "extreme — but it was to make a point," a reaction to Obama and House Speaker John Boehner playing on a golf team together (Williams said that that situation was like Hitler playing golf with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu). We wonder what he'd say if they played on the same basketball team. Ultimately, ESPN decided to remove the singer's yelly "Are You Ready for Some Football?" recording from the opening of "Monday Night Football." And the world was less noisy for it.

LITTLE FALLS, NJ – Goals from Alan Koger and Zack Schilawski lifted the New England Revolution reserves to a 2-0 win over the New York Red Bulls reserves Saturday morning at Montclair State University.
The Revolution took the lead just one minute in when a long ball from defender Franco Coria found Koger, who pushed it past an on-rushing Alex Horwath at the top of the box and into the back of the net.
Kheli Dube almost doubled New England's advantage 10 minutes later, firing past the left post from 15-yards-out. Soon after, New York had its first chance, as forward Corey Hertzog nodded a Teddy Schneider cross wide. Horwath was called upon in the 27th minute to keep the game at 1-0, tipping a Schilawski blast over the bar. The goalkeeper made another save in the interval, diving to his left to catch a Koger header.
New York searched for an equalizer and Marcos Paullo nearly got an open strike on goal in the penalty box 10 minutes after the break if it wasn't for a last minute block by a Revolution defender.
The visitors doubled their advantage in the 66th minute. Andrew Sousa played a short corner to Ryan Kinne, whose ensuing inswinger dipped into the six-yard box. Schilawski beat his man to the ball and nodded it past substitute goalkeeper Chris Konopka. The Revolution forward had another chance off a scissor kick that Konopka acrobatically parried away.
Revolution goalkeeper Bobby Shuttleworth helped preserve the clean sheet for New England when he blocked a John Rooney 23-year free kick with less than 15 minutes left in the match. Konopka made another good stop later, getting a hand on Dube's close-range header.

I've recently started going over facebook atheist groups, and I think we've got a serious problem.
On the one hand, I think it's the best argument to teach evolution in schools, along with a basic understanding of the ethical implications of it. On the other hand, I sometimes wonder if the religious right doesn't have a point and we shouldn't be teaching evolution at all.
A lot of people (who usually seem like they're very young and not very bright) who get a basic grasp of evolution start thinking that they're hard-bitten realists with a deep insight who are ready to make the hard decisions for the future betterment of the human race.
And then, they start spouting pseudo-science nonsense backed up right-wing propaganda.
They decide that "survival of the fittest" is a normative statement, and it's unethical to interfere in any situation that can be construed as a struggle for survival. (Hurray for the strong who abuse the weak!)
They say that feeding starving children in third-world countries or through the Welfare system in the US is creating a perverse incentive that's going to flood the world with the stupid and useless.
The same thinking can be applied to economics as a reason to support unregulated markets.
Obviously, these are not things that they learned from Carl Sagan. And I don't really think I have to point the error in this thinking, but I happily will if anyone here indulges themselves in this illusion.
But there are an enormous number of people (at least in the US) that support these ideas, and there are so few atheists that aren't also right-wing eugenist nutjobs that I think The New Atheists should speak out specifically on this subject.
I sometimes wonder if the religious right doesn't have a point and we shouldn't be teaching evolution at all.
In short, No, The religious right does NOT have any valid reasons why we should refuse to teach children, as well as adults the truth about evolution so far as we understand it, to all. It is bad enough that sane people allow the intentional manipulation of the faithfuls minds as it is, I don't even think we should be allowing this much..but to suggest they might have a right to invade the minds of all is simply out of the question. People can believe in anything they want to so long as it doesn't invade the rights of another person against their will. Evolution isn't a theory, it is a fact and the fact that so many people fail to understand scientific terminology is all the more reason why we need to stop saying the theory of evolution and simply evolution. Religions are theory's in the way that most people define theory, and they are not the same thing. It's like saying hey instead of teaching math theory, lets just say that all numbers go together magically by the will of the number god. This isn't a debate any longer and it's becoming a bad idea to even argue with religious people, outside of the necessity to tell them in large groups that they are wrong.

The Charlotte Bobcats have assigned rookie forward Jermareo Davidson to their NBA Development League affiliate, the Sioux Falls Skyforce. Davidson is expected to see his first action on Friday, January 25, against the Utah Flash.
The 6-10, 230-pound forward has appeared in 16 games this season with averages of 2.7 points and 1.5 rebounds in 7.1 minutes of action. His draft rights were acquired by the Bobcats along with guard Jason Richardson from the Golden State Warriors in exchange for Brandan Wright, whom the Bobcats selected with eighth pick in the 2007 NBA Draft.
Davidson, the 36th overall selection in the June draft, played four seasons at the University of Alabama and averaged 10.2 points, 7.2 rebounds and 1.7 blocks in 126 collegiate games. He was named All-Southeastern Conference Second Team in 2006-07 by the league's coaches and Honorable Mention All-SEC by The Associated Press.
As a senior, he ranked second on the team in scoring, averaging 14.0 points, ranked first in total blocks with 70 and ranked second in rebounding (8.2). He also reached double-figure scoring 25 times and posted 11 double-doubles on the season.
