The recent years marked by economic problems and austerity measures are now reflected in the politics. The countries leaders and their parties started to pay for their disastrous management that brought Europe on the brink of disaster.
The best example is France, where the conservative incumbent Nicolas Sarkozy lost the presidential elections to socialist party candidate Francois Hollande. The new French president is against austerity and stated that he wants to change the current approach for euro-zone which is based on cutting the government spending and reducing the sovereign-debt.

Crew teams make cut to row in Boston Regatta
October 20, 2011 | Lynchburg, VA
Members of the Liberty University varsity club men's and women's crew teams are traveling to Boston, Mass., this weekend to compete in the Head of the Charles Regatta, the world's largest annual two-day rowing event.
The Regatta will feature 61 events, 1,953 boats and more than 8,800 competitors. Teams from all over the world are participating, along with top-competition schools, such as Harvard University and Stanford University, and some Olympic rowers.
Crew has been a club sport at Liberty University for three seasons, but this is the first season the teams will participate in the Head of the Charles Regatta. In order to be invited, Liberty had to apply and enter a lottery process, which turns away about 33 percent of applicants. However, if the teams finish in the top half of their field and within 5 percent of the winning time at this year's event, they are automatically invited back the following year.
"Both crews are striving to obviously get the best results they can with the primary goal to finish in the top half," said head coach Mark Furler.
The men's team will be participating in the collegiate men's eights against 39 other competitors; the women's team is one of the 31 competitors in the collegiate women's fours race.
The regatta can be watched though a live webcast on the Head of the Charles website beginning at 8 a.m.; the women's team will be competing at 3:46 p.m. on Saturday and the men's team will be competing at 3:28 p.m. on Sunday.
Their next competition will be in Fairfax, Va., on Nov. 5. Another race will be held in Augusta, Ga., on Nov. 12, and both the novice and varsity teams will be participating.
The teams practice on Liberty's 112-acre Ivy Lake in Forest, Va., 15 minutes from Liberty's campus. For more information on Liberty crew or Liberty's club sports programs, go towww.liberty.edu/campusrec/clubsports.

You've probably got dinner tonight all figured out, seeing as it's Christmas Eve and all, but if you don't, this meal -- while we admit, it's no Feast of Seven Fishes -- makes for mighty fine pre-midnight mass sustenance. You'll be hymning your way into the night, tummy lined with rich and garlic-heavy roasted broccoli and wine-soaked clams. And if you have a little room left for a late night cookie with Santa (or a carrot with Rudolph), so much the better!
The Menu
Click through on the recipe photos or titles to see (and save and print) the full recipes, but we've also written you a handy grocery list and game plan below.
Roasted Broccoli with Almonds, Roasted Garlic and Mustard Vinaigrette by thirschfeld
Drunken Clams with Sausage by QueenSashy
6 cups broccoli florets
1/2 cup whole almonds
4 dozen clams
2 sweet Italian sausages
Fresh parsley
Fresh tarragon
Fresh crusty bread for dunking
We trust you're a pretty on-top-of-it type, and probably have an onion, garlic, celery, sweet and dry white wine, cream, olive oil, lemons, whole-grain mustard, salt, and pepper lying around. If not, you'll need those, too!
1. For only one teeeny tiny reason, this Dinner Tonight takes a little longer than usual -- the roasted garlic for the broccoli. It needs a little over an hour in the oven to get luxuriously and soft and sweet. But it's a holiday and you're home anyway right? Let it bake while you wrap the last of the presents, or have some eggnog with your neighbors, or do something else similarly, even excessively festive.
2. Once the garlic is finished, crank the oven up a bit and pop in the broccoli (which you prepped as the garlic roasted, right?).
3. Whip up that dreamy dressing for the broccoli and set aside.
4. Turn your attention to the clams. If you've ever worked with clams or mussels before, you know how quickly things go, so now is the moment when you actually have to pay a little attention.
5. Breathe in the steamy goodness of wine and shellfish. Pull the broccoli from the oven, dress, and serve with the clams, their liquor, and (ideally) some good bread for dunking. Maybe it's a feast after all!
6. Cheers! Excellent work, have a candy cane or two and maybe, MAYBE, open one little present. But just one.
A New Way to Dinner, co-authored by Food52's founders Amanda Hesser and Merrill Stubbs, is an indispensable playbook for stress-free meal-planning (hint: cook foundational dishes on the weekend and mix and match 'em through the week).Order now


text: The eye-catching flybridge is probably the first thing you'll notice about the stunning A55 Aegean Flybridge. Whether cruising at the helm or anchored at a favourite hideaway, the elevated position offeres uninhibited view and the perfect place to laze under the sun. Named after the Aegean Sea, the A55 would be perfectly at home in any of the glamorous European ports along the Mediterranean, and its beautifully styled open flybridge will take the joy of cruising to new heights. If ever a motoryacht was designed for living the high seas, this is the one! When you've had your fill of the great outdoors, a climate-controlled interior provides every luxury whether you're partying on the main deck or enjoying some solitude in the four-cabin, two-bathroom sanctuary below - including the full beam master stateroom with ensuite and walk-in wardrobe. The saloon is stylish and elegant with seating lofted and positioned forward to offer the best possible view of the seascape. And with the saloon, galley and cockpit all on one level, the A55 has an entertainment precinct that feels incredibly spacious. The indulgent pleasure of cruising isn't something you would normally associate with economy. However, the reasons behind the A55's superb performance are the same ones that make it so economical. Designed with an advanced variable deadrise hull, engines and fuel tanks over the centre of buoyancy, and a miniscule properller shaft angle of just 9 degrees, the A55 has incomparable poise and balance. As a result, the Aegean Flybridge not only has exceptional flat running characteristics and sporty acceleration - it's also incredibly frugal on fuel.

Best MET Androgen: Kristen Stewart
In Stella McCartney. And before you go clutching your Reese Witherspoon pearls, remember it was Punk Night at the MET Gala. So even though this might not be your flavour, at this event anyway, it's better than Michelle Williams and Blake Lively and Emily Blunt and Katie Holmes and oh my God, Jennifer Lawrence and Emma Watson.
With the exception of Jessica Pare, which was tragic anyway, very few attendees punked out in pants. Kristen Stewart not only chose pants, she also played up the androgyny. Sure, the crotch area isn't a great fit, but I'm not sure that wasn't intentional. Fitted pants would change the tone of look entirely. Fitted pants would swing the outfit over to the feminine. Her sex appeal here isn't in the feminine or the masculine but in what can't be defined. There's a natural raw hardness to Stewart -- it reminds me of my beloved Gia Carangi -- that McCartney is bringing out in her styling. It's why she looks so much more comfortable and confident here than, say, in comparison to that sh-tty Reem Acra gown that she wore to the Oscars. Click here for a refresher. Why was Kristen Stewart down-dressing in Reem Acra anyway?
And for those of you wondering about Robert Pattinson -- he wasn't at the event but she left with Sienna Miller and Tom Sturridge, Pattinson's best friend, and apparently met up for dinner afterwards.

Laurelin (Q: "Golden Tree", pron. [ˈlaʊrelin]; also Valarin Tulukhedelgorūs) was the Golden Tree of Aman, the mate of Telperion, and the younger of the Two Trees of Valinor. Laurelin was created by the Vala Yavanna and Nienna on the hill of Ezellohar. From that hill Laurelin and Telperion shed their light on the realm of the Valar in the long years before the making of the Sun and Moon.
The Golden Tree was destroyed by Melkor who used the giant spider spirit Ungoliant to his evil purpose during the theft of the Silmarils, which caused the Darkening of Valinor. The creation and destruction of Laurelin and Telperion marked the beginning and ending of the Years of the Trees, before the First Age of Middle-earth.
According to legend, in the future there will be a "Final Battle" (the Dagor Dagorath), in which Morgoth is utterly defeated and evil is banished, and the light of the Silmarils will be used to create the Two Trees once more.

I finished my color wheel quilt and even entered it in the Bloggers' Quilt Festival. I'm not finished with the rainbow colors though. I'm itching to make something else with all those colors but I haven't found just the right project for me yet. I'll keep looking.
This week I'm working on the Batman side of the superhero quilt. It's been funner than I thought it would be and it is going together very quickly. I really only have about 9 more seams to put together and that side will be finished.
Does anybody else count how many more rows or blocks that have to be attached before a quilt is finished? I seem to do that when I'm down to the final few.
Happy Wednesday! Only 2 more days of school for this year! yeah! Hello summer, here we come!
Linking up to Lee's WiP Wednesday. Lots of beautiful quilts over there to look at so go check them out when you get some time.

About me
A little bit about me: I have recently graduated in Multimedia Design and I am currently studying web development. When I am not geeking, I read, travel and do craft projects. I am always looking for new experience and adventures and despite some natural shyness I enjoy meeting new people. When you come to visit me and my husband, Peter (Fake51), you may find us really busy, but most of the time we will make you a nice, vegetarian dinner and we will talk late into the night.

New Brunswick Biology Graduate Schools
Biology Graduate Schools provide courses of study that might lead to a Master of Science (MS), Doctor of Philosophy (PhD), or post-masters certificate. The biological sciences span biochemistry, cell and molecular biology, genetics, and genomics.
There are also graduate schools for biology majors who want to earn their degree in science, mathematics, and engineering.
Requirements for Biology Graduate Schools & Programs
Students who apply to biology graduate schools for their masters program need an accredited bachelors degree in biology, biochemistry, or a closely related discipline. They may also be asked what topics they want to research, and perhaps, which faculty they hope to collaborate with.
Students who apply to a PhD program may need to show that they have research experience, and/or a MS degree with a thesis. Other material (e.g. GRE scores, GPA) varies, although some programs are quite selective.
Masters in Biology Programs
Most schools offer their Masters in Biological Sciences degree programs with a thesis or non-thesis option. In some universities, the non-thesis option can be completed in one year. Since the thesis option includes a research component, it might take a full-time student about two years to complete.
Also, most MS Biology programs have different tracks. Human biology, ecosystems, microbiology, water management or genetics are a few examples. These focal points might be a great differentiator between universities.
One school may have a program that mirrors a research interest, another where viewpoints might be expanded through lab rotations with a variety of faculty members. Or, the university might favor inter-departmental collaboration.
PhD in Biology Programs
Biology graduate schools with Biology PhD programs may offer joint MD/PhD or MS/PhD programs. While it might take the average full-time PhD student
about six years to complete their degree, this is a variable. PhD candidates often have the freedom to pursue a variety of topics to make connections between different fields and scientific approaches for their dissertation.
These areas might span cell biology, developmental biology, physiology, neuroscience, animal behavior, plant biology, genomics, computational biology, evolution, ecology, and biodiversity. Within that framework, a school's faculty and facilities may lend specific appeal.
Graduate Certificate in Biology
Post-masters certificates in biology typically target about five or six courses. Some students use the credits to help them fulfill state biology teacher certification requirements. Others, to add onto current skills.
Why Consider a Biological Sciences Degree?
One of the main goals of a graduate-level biological sciences degree are to familiarize students with current research in biology. This is done through advanced courses, seminars, and original research experiences with faculty supervision.
To this end, university biology departments and their laboratories, often conduct unique experiments and research. As a result, students who pursue their MS or PhD on-campus may benefit from mentorship and lots of hands-on practice in their university's laboratories.
Find Accredited Biology Graduate Schools
Many regionally accredited biology graduate schools have research centers on and off-site. You can search by location –city, state or country to find a campus with the features that matter to you. And, refine your results by Masters, PhD, or Certificate.

Sometimes having a bad race is a good thing.
At least that's how I prefer to look at it (they don't call me "Pollyanna" for nothing). Two weeks ago at Uwharrie 40, a number of factors created the perfect storm of a race for me, and despite conditions begging for a PR, I tanked and had to dial in the last 10 miles to miss breaking 8 hours by nine minutes. Afterwards, I took a good look at the things within my control that went awry, and came up with a new game plan for the Holiday Lake 50K++ today.
1. Recovery. I realized that I did not recover from Hellgate 100K as adequately as I had planned. I did too many long hard runs in January, including a tough run on a snow-covered MMT course just two weeks before Uwharrie (the snow covered the rocks but was tiring for the legs after 21 miles). I decided that to run a better race at Holiday Lake, I needed to rest up, so I ran very little during the past two weeks (a total of 5 easy, short runs). I feel great at age 45, but my body just needs more recovery than in the past!
2. Nutrition. At Uwharrie I had serious GI distress throughout that race (see my race report below). I suspected it was a combination of eating too much in the first 3.5 hours (5 servings of Hammergel and a bottle of SE, as well as a bottle of water and Nuun), temps that rose to the low 60s, and a shortage of electrolytes. By the last 10 miles, I was completely spent from GI issues and dehydration. For Holiday Lake, I had a gel every hour, a bottle of SE, and a bottle of Nuun for the entire race with no GI problems...and the temps never got above 45, which worked well for me. My thanks go out to Meredith Terranova for her great advice!!!
3. Mental Preparation and Focus. At Uwharrie I allowed myself to get taken out of my mental game plan once I started feeling crappy, and I was determined to stay tough at Holiday Lake if problems arose. I didn't want to race anyone except the clock, as I was hoping to run near my Holiday Lake PR from 2002 (5:17). After running the first 16-mile loop in 2:30, I was on track for a PR but had a typical bad patch around mile 20...and was pleased that with a walk-run routine and a few gels, I was able to rally. I finished in 5:22, feeling very strong and satisfied with my time. Most importantly, I ran my own race and didn't get caught up in running down anyone else, and as a result, I felt great at the end with nary a bonk in sight.
We had near perfect weather and conditions at Holiday Lake today, and the trail was dry and fast. As usual, David Horton and his volunteers did an excellent job catering to the runners, and once again I was impressed by the number of very fast women. In 2002, my time of 5:17 earned me 3rd place overall woman...this year, 5:22 was good enough for 13th!
Holiday Lake was my first ultra, and in 6 years of racing, I have realized that what I love most about ultras is that they always present a puzzle to be solved. When the pieces come together, it's an awesome feeling...and when they don't, it's all part of the plan!
Next up: ROAD TRIP on March 8 to Land Between The Lakes 60k to run with my dear friends Heidi and Michelle!!!
Welcome to my blog and the place where I will post my photos and musings from my life as an ultrarunner. My nickname "Shining" was given to me by a group of very special students after I finished my first 100-miler, the Massanutten Mountain Trails 100. They were the inspiration that enabled me to finish this awesome race, and I try to live each day with a "shining" attitude!

Sophie, thanks for sharing your thoughts on how your day went at Uwharrie. I was stunned that I opted to DNF that day, but realize now that as much as anything my head just wasn't in the right place and that is a huge factor!
See you at Promise Land if not before!

Pennsylvania�s seniors are living longer and it�s vital that we help them to live better, which is why Gov. Tom Corbett�s �Healthy Pennsylvania� proposal warrants a closer look.
Pennsylvania is the fourth grayest state in the nation. By 2015, nearly one in four Pennsylvanians will be age 60 or older, with health care needs that often differ significantly from the rest of the population. We need to preserve our Medicaid system to make sure we have resources available now and as the state�s senior population grows.
�Healthy Pennsylvania� not only reforms our Medicaid system � it preserves and improves it.
But Gov. Corbett�s plan also calls for the state to do something government doesn�t do often enough:
�Healthy Pennsylvania� creates a Long-Term Care Improvement Commission to explore how best to develop a coordinated, long-term care and support system. The commission will be tasked with making sure older adults and persons with disabilities receive the best possible care.
The commission�s first job will be to hear from doctors, social workers, advocates, providers and most importantly recipients themselves, to find out where the system isn�t measuring up and to examine innovative ways to deliver care.
It�s not enough to insure the uninsured. The coverage has to fit the needs of Pennsylvanians.
For instance, the governor�s proposal extends the use of telemedicine, allowing doctors in remote and under-served areas to share diagnoses and symptoms with specialists throughout the state and nation.
That makes sense for our older Pennsylvanians. Our state has one of the highest populations of rural residents in the nation, with 48 of our 67 counties classified as rural. One in five of those rural Pennsylvanians is a senior.
Gov. Corbett�s commitment to seniors should be news to no one. Since taking office, he has signed the Pennsylvania Caregiver Support Act, created the Pennsylvania Alzheimer�s Disease Planning Committee through executive order and extended prescription medication benefits for seniors.
This year he added $50 million into the state�s budget for programs that will benefit older Pennsylvanians by helping them remain in their homes and communities and have better access to long-term care services.
This commitment will help provide care management, home-delivered meals and in-home services for Pennsylvanians age 60 and older. It will also help support senior center modernization and expand services through our 52 Area Agencies on Aging so that we have the system in place to assist our seniors.
Clearly, the Corbett administration has signaled that older Pennsylvanians are a priority. With �Healthy Pennsylvania�, we are on track to ensuring access to quality, affordable health care for all Pennsylvanians.
As the Long-Term Care Improvement Commission reports back, you can expect additional proposals and programs to make certain that seniors not only have health care � but that they have the best available, most suited to their needs.
It starts with listening.
Brian Duke is the Pennsylvania Secretary of Aging.

Quirky, fun 'Adventure Time' delves into the dark side too
"Adventure Time" revels in absurd fantasy fun with its fist-bumping, loopy-limbed heroes Finn the human and Jake the dog. But the hit Cartoon Network series isn't afraid to delve into the dark side, too.
"We've always had dark episodes," says series creator Pendleton Ward, who grew up in San Antonio. "I think dark comedies are the most fun-to-watch sort of genres for me. I love those feelings. I love being scared and laughing at the same time."
Malevolent gnomes, candy-people zombies and a soul-sucking demon dad are just some of those scary but hilarious quirks that await fans in "Adventure Time - It Came From the Nightosphere" ($19.82), a new 16-episode DVD release that hits shelves today.
Ward answered a few questions about the new "Adventure Time" DVD and other darkly delightful goings-on with the popular franchise.
Q: "Nightosphere" centers on the vampire Marceline's estranged relationship with her demon dad. It's also one of the darkest yet most heartfelt "Adventure Time" episodes I think I've ever seen. Do you think that has something to do with why it got an Emmy nomination? Why lead with this episode?
A: I love that goose-bumps feeling in a climactic scene with music rising. In that episode you're talking about, there is that rising action toward the end, and then LSP (Lumpy Space Princess, which Ward voices) cuts in and says "drama bomb!" in the middle of it to sort of, like, cut its legs out. Which I think is a lot of fun.
Q: In the episode "Power Animal" you have underground gnomes bent on worldwide destruction while "The Enchiridion!" episode features gnomes destroying old ladies. Do you have anything against garden statuary with pointy hats?
A: (laughs) No. I love that kind of stuff. I think that stuff usually feels pretty creepy, garden gnomes and gnomes. You can take it either way.
I'm a big fan of David the Gnome, too, who is a friendly little gnome that rode on a fox. And we like doing small gnomey stuff that's cute and adorable, too. Maybe it is the pointy hats that make me want to write them dangerous. Paul Reubens (famous for his role as Pee-wee Herman) was the voice of that master of the gnomes.
Q: The episodes "Mystery Train" and "The Creeps" spoof murder mysteries. Are you also a whodunit fan?
A: Yeah, definitely. I'm a sucker for crime cases and detective anything. We do a lot of that on the show. We try to. Mysteries are always more difficult to write in a crunch; you have to think backwards. But we still attempt them through the series.
Q: The "Guardians of Sunshine" episode really channels "TRON" in how it sucks Finn and Jake into a vectored video-game world. I have to ask: When do we get the "Adventure Time" video game?
A: I can't say. That's off the table. And actually I don't even know. I don't know anything until it happens right in front of my face. How about "eventually"? How's that for a terrible answer?
Q: You grew up in San Antonio, and your mom, Bettie Ward, still resides in the Alamo City. Given her artist background, has she ever contributed to "Adventure Time"?
A: She did a cover for (the "Adventure Time" comic book) recently. Yeah, it's really funny. It's Ricardio (a heart-shaped villain voiced by George Takei) and he's playing some conga drums. Peppermint Butler is about the size of a bee on his head, and he's playing these maracas. It's really silly. Say "Hi" to my mom for me.
Q: Another San Antonio connection, art and fashion bon vivant Polly Lou Livingston, lends her Southern drawl to the elephant Tree Trunks in the episodes "Slumber Party Panic" and "Crystals Have Power." Is there a favorite memory of her you can share?
A: She wears these fabulous dresses. She has so many amazing outfits. She just told me the other day on the phone she dresses for the parts, even though she's just doing the voice. So she'll try to wear the cutest thing when she's performing for Tree Trunks.
And she says she'll stay in character for at least a couple of days after the recordings are made, in this very cute manner. Not that she's not the cutest thing in the entire world every day, all the time, forever.
Q: Finally, DVD releases such as "Nightosphere" are great treats for fans, but we still haven't seen a full "Adventure Time" season on DVD. What can you tease or tell us about any impending collectible set?
A: I don't know. Lauren?
(Publicist Lauren McCabe says: "It is coming. Those are the three words that we can give you. It's in the works. It will happen in 2012; we are working out the details." Then Ward adds:)
I think I have to reveal for San Antonio that Polly will be featured within the special features.

VICTORVILLE, Calif. (AP) – Nearly 50 people have been arrested and 92 birds seized during a raid on a Southern California desert cockfighting operation.
Days before the Sunday morning raid, San Bernardino County officials announced a crackdown on the illegal blood sport and released a video of roosters slashing at each other with steel blades attached to their legs.
The Victorville Daily Press (
http://bit.ly/zTHmXL) reports about 300 people attended Sunday's cockfight in a barn arena in the Baldy Mesa area, a community between Victorville and Hesperia.
Property owner Fernando Hernandez and most of the spectators fled when deputies showed up.
Forty-seven people were arrested, mostly for being spectators. Six were booked for investigation of animal cruelty.
There were about 20 dead roosters. Deputies seized 92 live birds and about $21,000.

For months now, we have been talking about a North American road racing series that would compete against the ailing AMA Pro Road Racing championship that DMG runs. The series in question was rumored to be headed by Dorna and Wayne Rainey, and today's news confirms at least half of that partnership, as the three-time World Champion is affiliated with the project
Called MotoAmerica, the North America series is run by KRAVE Group LLC. Rainey is a partner in the KRAVE Group, along with Chuck Aksland who was a 20-year manager of Team Roberts and recently the Vice President of Motor Sport Operations at the Circuit of the Americas race track. Terry Karges, a marketing executive from Roush Performance is a part of the team, as is Richard Varner, a motorcycle industry entrepreneur.
According to the AMA, MotoAmerica will promote and manage the series, which will be sanctioned by the AMA and FIM North America. This means that MotoAmerica will be able to award AMA and FIM North America #1 plates to series class champions, replacing the role of AMA Pro Road Racing as run by the Daytona Motorsports Group.

I'm not surprised that he articulates a feeling of relief at being caught, almost a liberation. He says that once having begun to dope, the only way out was with a positive test:
NZZ: Jetzt, da Sie überführt wurden und Sie gestanden haben, sind Sie erleichtert?
TF: Ja. So doof das klingt: Wenn man mal mit Doping begonnen hat, ist der einzige Ausweg die positive Probe.
Yes. So stupid that sounds, if one has even begun with doping, is the only way the positive sample. [That is, once you've started doping, the only way you stop is by testing positive.]
I was recently asked if I would have continued doping 1) had I not been caught and 2) had Whistle gone ahead and delivered me the lucrative contract they promised for 2007 when the team would become Cinelli-Endeka-OPD.
"I don't think it would have mattered if I'd gotten a huge contract or not, b/c my subconscious had already done me in – I believe that I subconsciously wanted to get caught b/c it was the only way I would stop doping. I consciously don't think that I could have brought myself to the point of stopping, b/c it facilitated my continued , participation in elite cycling in Europe. But I didn't want to continue and remember a moment of self-reflection when I recoiled at the fact that I had become more adept at injecting myself w/ an IV than most nurses."
David Millar has consistently expressed a similar sentiment, though at first I thought he was just being self-serving. Now, however, I understand that doping exerts a powerful hold over its practitioners, and even the ones who would seem to have a strong sense of character and an intellectual understanding of right and wrong can find it inescapable.
In 2004, Millar told the Guardian UK, "You dope because you are a prisoner of yourself, of glory, of money. I was a prisoner of the person that I had become."
And then earlier this year, during an interview with Cycling Weekly, Millar described his two-year ban and forced hiatus from the sport as something that he no longer saw as destructive:
"That's a positive of getting caught, and getting out of that spiral I was in. It allowed me to reboot my life. There's no way I'd be here now, if none of that stuff had happened, and if I'd continued the linear development I was on as a young athlete, I wouldn't have found such happiness. You end up in this eternal, success-driven, materialistic world. I escaped that by losing everything and having to start again."
The theme of being trapped, of being a prisoner to doping is constant. And what can or should you do with riders like this after they've gone positive? Do you try to flip them and prey on their own self-loathing in hopes of turning them publicly against doping and the riders they know who remain undiscovered, or do you just banish them without study, intending to make a harsh example to others of what happens when an athlete is caught?
My own situation not withstanding, I'm wondering if doping is not something that could also be studied as more of addiction-related condition, rather than just a question of greed or criminal behavior. When someone wants to stop (as Frei implies he did) but can't, and even says that only testing positive would halt the individual's cheating...maybe appeals limited to the ethical or moralistic aspects of a rider's personality are incomplete and should be augmented not just by threats of prosecution, but also by approaches one might use with an addict? Before anyone makes the mistake of thinking that I'm trying to excuse such behavior, I'm not. But if there is a disease component to someone's anti-social behavior, is that a valid point of inquiry when searching for a solution?
This WADA report on the attitudes and experiences of medical doctors towards doping in the Balkan region is an interesting starting-point for further study.

Just for giggles, I sent the text of the article as an e-mail both to the Speed Channel's main address as well as to the e-mail address for Wind Tunnel , which is a viewer call in / participation show also on the Speed Channel. Wanted to see if they would in any way respond to the article since the BJ auction is on the Speed Channel. Haven't received anything and really don't expect to. In the spirit of fairness, though, wanted to give them a chance to comment if they wanted to.Its amazing there were a bunch of people complaining how BJ was ruining the hobby because of the astronomical prices last year, and now another group is complaining how low prices, and how some bidders weren't given and opportunity to bid...hence the low prices..My take is that the fourwheel drift fella has zero credibility. Most if not all his statments are unfounded or have been proven to be false. With such a big event you can't please everyone. And my take is that it is great entertainment, but you won't see me purchasing a car at an auction anytime soon.

TED Radio Hour
Su 10a
- Hosted by Guy Raz
Each year, TED hosts the world's most fascinating thinkers - convention-breaking mavericks, icons, and geniuses - who give the talk of their lives in 18 minutes or less about the best ideas in Technology, Entertainment, Design and much more.
Through this exciting co-production between TED and NPR, each episode will focus around a theme (such as "Happiness") and TEDTalks that put ideas about the theme through the paces.
But the TEDTalks are just a launching point. Woven into and around a Talk, we've layered innovative soundscapes that bring ideas to life and break-off into conversation with the original speakers to probe why an idea made waves, got inside people's heads, and provoked excitement. Sometimes only portions of the original TEDTalk is played; other times you hear them almost in their entirety. Each approach to every idea is different, yet fascinating listening and great radio.
The TED Radio Hour offers a fresh step back from the frenetic pace of news. By pulling back from immediate events to explore the ideas underlying them, a whole new, connected picture opens up. And, for the most part, it's hopeful: astonishing inventions, fresh approaches to old problems, new ways to teach and learn. Through this series, public radio stations can offer the one gift you can hang onto even after you've given it away -- the magic of an idea worth spreading.

Terminating a Bad Assumption
I know a fellow who, in his mid-60's, has been using Windows for about 3 years, and still had no clue what I meant by "double-click," "drag-and-drop," or "select." He already knew about double-clicking, but didn't know what it was called. The notions of "copy-paste" and "clipboard" were totally foreign to him. (So is "don't click that blind link," but that is for someone else to explain. That battle is already being fought by those who actually have something to lose.)
Putting a total-beginner tutorial in the on-line help pretty well defeats the purpose of having such a tutorial in the first place. After all, how does one reach the tutorial? By using the mouse and on-screen menus.
The GNOME and KDE implementations of such a "tutorial" is bad to the core, anyway. A quick perusal of the basic mouse and keyboard skills sections in GNOME 2.22.3 reveals lots of textual explanations, but the only graphics present are twelve mouse pointers, presented in isolation from their pertinent contexts.
For example, the help page about resizing a window mentions the "resize pointer", but presents it as a hyperlink to the list of mouse pointers. Why isn't the pointer shown in the context where it matters? The basic keyboard help also talks about the Alt and Ctrl keys, but as far as I can see, does not explain that they are used similarly to the Shift key. Brand new users don't know this!
The assumption in KDE4's on-line help is much more explicit: "We assume that you are already familiar with at least one graphical user interface, for example CDE™, Geos™, GEM™, NeXTSTEP™, Mac®, OS/2™ or Microsoft® Windows®. So we will not explain the usage of the mouse or the keyboard but concentrate on hopefully more interesting things."
How preposterous. Does the KDE team have no aspirations to lead? Do they want always to follow, to let some other desktop become the first comfortable environment for new computer users? Without even a rudimentary introduction to the WIMP interface, KDE is totally inappropriate for retail sale. It will simply be "the other woman" that some users may dally with, but few fully commit to.
I think there should be a Linux-based "total beginner" tutorial that explains these basic GUI concepts. They're pretty platform-neutral (except maybe right- and middle-clicking on an older Macintosh) so nearly everyone learning to use a computer needs to know them. Of course, launching it shouldn't mean using these skills. We need something different. We need an interactive presentation, with video or animation, which launches on the first boot, automatically, or at least as easily as possible from instructions in a "quick-start" guide.
It should present a quick demonstration of the fundamental WIMP interface vocabulary: F-keys; the Shift, Ctrl, and Alt modifiers; left- and right-click (or "primary" and "secondary", to avoid handedness assumtions); double-click; click-and-drag; selecting text and desktop icons; and the clipboard operations, cut, copy, and paste. Maybe it should even include shift-click, to show how modifier keys work not only with other keys, but also with the mouse buttons.
Each step should include an interaction, in which the new user can demonstrate an understanding of the new vocabulary. If I'm talking to my sixty-some year-old friend over the phone, and tell him to "press F8", does he know that I'm talking about the keys in the uppermost row? After taking a tutorial which prompts him to "Press F8", the odds are better that he will.
In this day and age, in which even a tiny, underpowered netbook or a ten-year-old desktop system can play Ogg Theora videos, there is no excuse for not having such an introduction. We have the computing power. We have the programming infrastructure to use any human language in the world. It doesn't have to use Ogg Theora; it could use simple animated MNG's or some other free format.
Every year so far in the 21st century, we've heard something like, "This is the year of the Linux desktop!". No year yet has been The Year Of The Linux Desktop. As long as we assume desktop users have prior experience elsewhere, Linux will always be a geek toy, with the desktop simply an afterthought.
That may fly in tech centers like Silicon Valley, but would it work in a retirement community in Florida? Without a basic introduction to the GUI, a fifty-year-old farmer in Ukraine or Argentina will see Linux as being incomprehensible. He'll go learn something else, on some other more-common platform, because the tutorials are already available.
And we all know which two platforms are the most likely for him to learn.

Click here to print the obituary below
Rosalie Wahl
ST. PAUL, Minn. (AP) - Rosalie Wahl, the first woman to serve on the Minnesota Supreme Court, died Monday at age 88.
Wahl's daughter, Jenny Blaine, told the St. Paul Pioneer Press that her mother was taken to the emergency room Sunday evening and died of natural causes Monday morning.
Wahl was remembered by many as a remarkable jurist whose accomplishments paved the way for other women and whose deep commitment to justice formed the heart of her work.
"The courts were her concept of a sacred space, where everybody could be equally treated," said Harriet Lansing, a retired Minnesota Court of Appeals judge and close friend of Wahl's. "And she worked so hard to bring that about."
Wahl was appointed by then-Gov. Rudy Perpich in 1977 and served on the state's highest court for 17 years. The court created gender-fairness and racial-bias task forces while she served, the Star Tribune reported.
Minnesota Supreme Court Justice Alan Page s aid Wahl opened the door for people traditionally marginalized by the legal system to serve on the court.
"She was very much instrumental in ensuring opportunity of access for women and people of color as judges, but also with her work on the committee that looked into gender bias and racial bias in our judicial system," Page told Minnesota Public Radio News. "She was all about ensuring fairness for everyone and access for everyone."
Wahl grew up in poverty in rural Kansas. She was raised by her grandmother after her mother died when she was 3.
A law school student at age 38, Wahl raised her five children while taking night classes at William Mitchell College of Law in St. Paul. She graduated in 1967 and became a state public defender, and later started teaching law at William Mitchell in 1973.
Perpich, a Democrat, had been under pressure from women's groups to appoint a woman to the bench. At the time of her appointment, Wahl said that women lawyers w ere concerned about the "definite lack of perspective" that placed so few of them in high court positions.
The Minnesota Supreme Court later became the first state Supreme Court in the country with a majority of women. Wahl retired in 1994.
In a statement, Minnesota Supreme Court Chief Justice Lorie Gildea called Wahl "a trailblazer" for the state.
"She will be remembered with fondness and respect for her unwavering commitment to the principle of equal justice for all," Gildea said.
Gov. Mark Dayton said in a statement that Wahl "overcame barriers throughout her life to achieve remarkable success."

Astros shoot for 4-game sweep of Angels
The Houston Astros go for the rare four-game series sweep at Angel Stadium on Monday when they take on the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim in the finale.
Houston has won five in a row, and that includes wins in each of the first three games of this series. It marks the club's first five-game winning streak since April 30-May 5, 2012. The Astros have not reeled off six consecutive wins since the 2010 season.
"Those guys on the field are bringing it, when they're playing us, anyway," Angels manager Mike Scioscia said. "I think you can do a statistical analysis of their club and see some things that they haven't done at a very high level. But when we've played them, they've played at a high level and we need to play better. That's the bottom line."
On Sunday, Carlos Pena went 2-for-4 with a solo homer and two runs scored to lead the Houston Astros to a 5-4 win. Matt Dominguez drove in two runs in support of starter Jordan Lyles, who gave up two runs over 5 2/3 innings.
Over the last 17 games, Houston's starters have a 3.53 ERA and closer Jose Veras has recorded eight saves.
"I think that's something that just continues to build with your ballclub," said Astros manager Bo Porter. "Quality start after quality start with the next guy feeling 'OK, it's my turn.'"
C.J. Wilson took the loss for the Angels after yielding three runs on six hits to go along with nine strikeouts over 7 1/3 innings.
The Angels have not suffered a four-game sweep since August of last season when the Rays crossed home plate 37 times.
The Halos will turn to veteran Joe Blanton, who is vying to remain in the starting rotation after Scioscia goes with a four-man rotation following Thursday's off day. Blanton was dealt his league-high eighth loss last week at Dodger Stadium when he allowed three runs on seven hits over seven innings. He was done in by a two-run homer to Luis Cruz. Blanton also suffered a May 8 loss at Houston when he was tagged for three runs on eight hits in 6 2/3 innings.
Meanwhile, lefty Erik Bedard takes the mound for Houston. Bedard has allowed two earned runs in each of his last four starts. He gave up seven hits against the Rockies on Wednesday but limited the damage on the scoreboard, as the Astros hung around to plate three runs in the ninth inning to come back and win it.
With wins in the first three games of this series, the Astros are now 6-3 against their new AL West foes. They have held the Halos to a collective .218 batting average and just seven runs in the first three games of this series.
"If we can compete with the Angels, then we can compete with anybody," Astros reliever Hector Ambriz said.

Click this picture of Rocky and see an awesome compilation of Rocky moments!
Danny Carpenter – http://blog.urbansurvivaltools.com/ – called me up yesterday and needed some motivational words for the days events. As I searched the Internet for some inspirational words, Carp asked me to search a quote by Mark Twain about getting going and we came upon this quote: "Fortune knocks at every man's door once in a life, but in a good many cases the man is in the neighbouring saloon and does not hear her." And this: "The secret of getting ahead is getting started. The secret of getting started is breaking your complex, overwhelming tasks into small manageable tasks, then starting on the first one." Both EPIC quotes by our good man Mark Twain! The first one hit Carp pretty dang hard over the phone and the second struck accord with me!
The last few months have dealt some interesting cards for this individual! Losing my grandmother, which had been a little unexpected, and coming back to Phoenix from Thanksgiving and her funeral service, I went to work on Monday and got laid off at University of Phoenix. Yeah it was a very emotional week but I've got so much support from the heavens, family, and friends. I take every experience as a challenge to grow and learn something positive. Work ethic is something that has come to mind as I have had a lot of time to think.
The NFL Playoffs are here and as I was listening to sports radio this morning it got me thinking about the work ethic of football players! There is NO other sport as aggressive and rigorous as the NFL! To play 18+ games in a season for 60 minutes in helmet, cleats, and pads going back and forth exerting all your body strength, its making me tired right now! The off-season work outs these guys go through to prepare for the season is considered borderline INSANE! Think about the matchup of one Darren Sproles, San Diego Chargers Running Back, who's height is 5-6″ and weighs 190lbs running towards Oakland Raiders Defensive End, Richard Seymour who is 6-6″ and weighs 310lbs. THATS CRAZY! These players, no matter if you like them or not, play for 60 minutes with blood, sweat, and tears! The kind of work ethic you have to put yourself through as an NFL Player must be very challenging and I'd imagine would be very strict.
Here's a great article by Sign On San Diego about former SD Charger, Antonio Cromartie's off-season workout: http://www.signonsandiego.com/news/2009/jul/12/1s12chargers01169/
You may take a nap now after reading that article! So what does this all mean? Well where do you work? From home, at an office, or do you travel? Whats your routine? What kind of work ethic do you have? For me its very difficult to stay on a strict work ethic routine. I find myself, when trying to do school work or lock down sponsors for an event, in ADD mode looking at stuff on the Internet like Facebook or watching NetFlix, so I have to really lock down my composure and write my goals down. Keeping a white dry erase board in front of me or writing my to do's and goals on a sheet of paper can help me accomplish the things I need to accomplish. Getting adequate exercise is another story!
We'll revisit more of this later. set goals. work hard. play harder. be motivated. crush it.
visit my friends blog: http://justifiedbythescriptures.wordpress.com/
Also another friend of mine: Michael Easterling will be doing some good blogging soon about a very charitable event in his future

Crow, Quackenbush to be Honored
NEW HAVEN, Conn. – The Yale women's lacrosse team pays tribute to its two seniors, attacker Caroline Crow (Davidsonville, Md.) and goalkeeper Whitney Quackenbush (Manhasset, N.Y.), this Saturday as the Bulldogs host Columbia at Reese Stadium. In addition to being Senior Day, it is also "Youth Day", including a post-game autograph session with the team.
Crow, Yale's captain, has appeared in 39 games for her career and made 30 starts. One of Yale's most reliable offensive threats, she leads the team in goals, assists and points this season with career highs in all three categories (19-9-28). She currently has a nine-game point scoring streak, and has had four hat tricks this season. As a sophomore she earned the team's most improved player award after battling back from injury.
Crow was elected captain by her teammates at the end of last season. She is a history major and a member of Jonathan Edwards College.
Quackenbush has appeared in 51 career games and made 50 career starts. A vocal leader for Yale's defense, she was a second team all-Northeast Region selection as a freshman, and an honorable mention All-Ivy League selection twice. She is just the second Yale goalie in the last nine years to have two seasons with a save percentage of .490 or better.
Quackenbush has totaled 400 saves, the seventh-best total in school history. She is a psychology major and a member of Ezra Stiles College.
Yale (3-8, 0-4 Ivy League) is 2-2 at home. The Bulldogs are coming off one of their best defensive performances of the season Wednesday, as they became just the fourth team to hold Stony Brook to fewer than 13 goals -- and the other three teams are No. 6 Duke, No. 5 Florida and No. 4 Maryland. The Bulldogs also got four goals from sophomore attacker Jen DeVito (Wading River, N.Y.) and two each from freshman attacker Kerri Fleishhacker (Manhasset, N.Y.) and junior attacker Devon Rhodes (E. Northport, N.Y.), but still fell 12-8. Yale's seven assists in the game were the most the Bulldogs have had since getting eight in the 17-13 win vs. Harvard Apr. 3, 2010.
DeVito now has 16 points in the last four games, including 11 goals. She has moved into a tie for second on the team in scoring (12-7-19) with Rhodes (15-4-19).
Sophomore goalkeeper Erin McMullan (Wading River, N.Y.) has raised her season save percentage nearly 50 points (.372 to .420) in her last five games, which include 44 saves on 100 shots (.440). The sophomore class now boasts the starting goaltender and three of Yale's four starting defenders from the most recent game (Kallie Parchman (Baltimore, Md.), Katherine Sherrill (New York, N.Y.) and Adrienne Tarver (Pikesville, Md.)).
The freshman class, meanwhile, has scored 38 of Yale's 101 goals and has 66 of the team's 168 ground balls, led by 21 from midfielder Cathryn Avallone (Manhasset, N.Y.). Freshmen also have 68 of Yale's 123 draw controls, led by 29 from midfielder Christina Doherty (Bernardsville, N.J.).
A lead at halftime may be crucial against Columbia (2-9, 0-5 Ivy League). The Lions have outshot their opponents 148-137 in the second half, a dramatic difference from the first half (where their opponents have had a 170-110 shot advantage).
Columbia just snapped an eight-game losing streak with a 19-11 win over Lafayette Wednesday. Attacker Kacie Johnson had nine points in that game, and she has now broken her own school record for points in a season (35-27-62). She also set the school record for assists in a season with 27. A second team All-Ivy League selection last year, Johnson has two goals and three assists in the Lions' 10-3 win over Yale. She currently leads the league in points with 14 more than the next closest player (Cornell attacker Jessi Steinberg). She is also second on the team in caused turnovers with 15.
Columbia defender Amanda Goodhart leads the Ivy League with 22 caused turnovers. Goalie Skylar Dabbar has a .382 save percentage and a 13.87 goals-against average. She has held opponents to a .389 shooting percentage on free position shots (21 for 54).

I picked up these babies at Meijer the other week. They were on sale for like $1.89 each! I got the following three:
Lasting Finish Lycra Wear Nail Polish in Black Satin – a true black with a creamy texture. I wore this for like a week and only had to do another coat after 4 days.
60 Seconds Vinyl Shine in Pulsating – a shiny hot pink with a tad of magenta. I have been wearing this for almost a week and there is barely any chipping. Thumbs up!
60 Seconds Vinyl Stars in Star Kissed – a pretty shimmery baby pink color with glitter that looks *so* pretty in the bottle. I still have not tried this but I can't wait to do so. *Updates: I finally tested this and I did not like it at all. It is too gritty and does not go on as smooth (I blame the glitter). It also chipped pretty fast compared to the other two. I will not purchase this again.
Overall, I am really surprised at how good these nail polishes were. They are very true to the color and the texture is perfect – it is not too thick nor too watery. I only have to apply one coat and I'm good to go. Plus their longevity is amazing! I have never worn nail polish that stayed on for so long without chipping much and trust me, I have tried loads (Maybelline, Revlon, Red Earth, OPI, Essie, MAC etc.) I would definitely pick up more of these next time I go to the drugstore.
