Q&A: Drive Online Engagement with Intuitive Portals and Websites
By Kellsey Ruppel-Oracle on Apr 13, 2012
We had a great webcast yesterday and wanted to recap the questions that were asked throughout.
Can ECM distribute contents to 3rd party sites?
ECM, which is now called WebCenter Content can distribute content to 3rd party sites via several means as well as SSXA - Site Studio for External Applications.
Will you be able to provide more information on these means and SSXA?
If you have an existing JSP application, you can add the SSXA libraries to your IDE where your application was built (JDeveloper for example). You can now drop some code into your 3rd party site/application that can both create and pull dynamically contributable content out of the Content Server for inclusion in your pages.
If the 3rd party site is not a JSP application, there is also the option of leveraging two Site Studio (not SSXA) specific custom WebCenter Content services to pull Site Studio XML content into a page.
More information on SSXA can be found here: http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E17904_01/doc.1111/e13650/toc.htm
Is there another way than a "gadget" to integrate applications (like loan simulator) in WebCenter Sites?
There are some other ways such as leveraging the Pagelet Producer, which is a core component of WebCenter Portal. Oracle WebCenter Portal's Pagelet Producer (previously known as Oracle WebCenter Ensemble) provides a collection of useful tools and features that facilitate dynamic pagelet development. A pagelet is a reusable user interface component. Any HTML fragment can be a pagelet, but pagelet developers can also write pagelets that are parameterized and configurable, to dynamically interact with other pagelets, and respond to user input. Pagelets are similar to portlets, but while portlets were designed specifically for portals, pagelets can be run on any web page, including within a portal or other web application. Pagelets can be used to expose platform-specific portlets in other web environments. More on Page Producer can be found here:http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E23943_01/webcenter.1111/e10148/jpsdg_pagelet.htm#CHDIAEHG
Can you describe the mechanism available to achieve the context transfer of content?
The primary goal of context transfer is to provide a uniform experience to customers as they transition from one channel to another, for instance in the use-case discussed in the webcast, it was around a customer moving from the .com marketing website to the self-service site where the customer wants to manage his account information. However if WebCenter Sites was able to identify and segment the customers to a specific category where the customer is a potential target for some promotions, the same promotions should be targeted to the customer when he is in the self-service site, which is managed by WebCenter Portal. The context transfer can be achieved by calling out the WebCenter Sites Engage Server API's, which will identify the segment that the customer has been bucketed into. Again through REST API's., WebCenter Portal can then request WebCenter Sites for specific content that needs to be targeted for a customer for the identified segment. While this integration can be achieved through custom integration today, Oracle is looking into productizing this integration in future releases.
How can context be transferred from WebCenter Sites (marketing site) to WebCenter Portal (Online services)?
WebCenter Portal Personalization server can call into WebCenter Sites Engage Server to identify the segment for the user and then through REST API's request specific content that needs to be surfaced in the Portal.
Still have questions? Leave them in the comments section! And you can catch a replay of the webcast here.

bored with vampires and zombies
how many more books and films do we need about vampires (mostly for the girls) and zombies (mostly for the boys)?
It's been done to death (and beyond).
16 Aug 2009 18:25
its sex based so I have read
I have read articles where many women claim to love the whole image of the vampire. The leather, cape, blood sucking, hint of S & M etc etc. Is it true ladies?????

Zombies are awesome!!!
How can you say you're bored with zombies?!

they are awesome, but they seem to be everywhere. A bit of a zombie/vampire overload.

tired of fantasy
In general just tired of fantasy. I like Harry Potter, but cmon... the books were fine, lets move on. Vampires still attract us for some reason, as if we didn't get enough in Buffy the vampire slayer. And for zombies, there is a reason why they are mostly directed towards guys, girls simply find them irrelevant in any connection.
Lets zoom in on some more realistic yet entertaining books about real life. Such as Star Wars. Thats a good story.

Not all girls. I'm a girl, and I find anything to do with zombies to be loads of fun, especially films. And I know loads of other girls who think the same. I will admit, though, that vampires tend to be aimed at women. I just find all that gothic romance stuff irritating.
17 Aug 2009 12:34
Zombies are somewhat disgusting. They dont appeal to people in the sexy way that vampires do. They are just rotten pieces of moving meat. But whatever makes your world spin.

Women, generally, just love men who will dominate them– physically and emotionally. Edward from Twilight is an easy example because he's an object of desire for millions and millions of women (and gay men) around the world. He is vastly superior, physically, to the girl who is in love with him– could easily kill her if that's what he wanted to do and he makes that abundantly clear to her. Furthermore he doesn't think she's competent to make good decisions, so he makes all of her decisions for her– something she allows and is content with.
Women just want to be dominated. That's why the phrase "Nice guys finish lasts" exists, and that's why women love tough guys, and that's why half of all marriages end in divorce. Don't worry though ladies. Men just want to dominate, which is just as pathetic. Parasitism and predation are pre-historic impulses that still exist in a (very large) sub-human population, but some of us have gotten over it.

Women just want to be dominated. That's why the phrase
Reason why lots of marriages end in divorce is because its an "easy" solution, compared to make it work. And because today women can take care of themselves. 50 years ago, they were dependent on the man's income.
A dominant man makes a girl feel more feminine, but hell would be lose if the guy tried to take all decisions... gosh
17 Aug 2009 15:51
i detested Twilight so much.
and if i was going to be looking for a sexually superior specimen in a vampire,
case dismissed.
17 Aug 2009 16:08
Reason why lots of marriages end in divorce is because its
That's after the fact. Marriages that end in divorce are marriages that failed. Marriages fail because women prefer men who dominate them physically and emotionally.
A dominant man makes a girl feel more feminine, but hell
You say you like a man that is dominant, and in the same breath you challenge his dominance. The fact is you might feel questioning at first, just like the young woman in Twilight, but you would eventually submit because dominance makes you feel more feminine– read: makes you horny. That's the whole detestable point I was making in the first place. That attitude harkens back to the days when men carried clubs and if they wanted to have sex with a woman they'd just drag her back to the cave by her hair. That's dominance. That would be a crime today so the reality of dominance has been toned down significantly, but prehistoric-minded women like Twilight fans still just crave a good clubbing.
As I said, some of humanity is trudging along up the evolutionary slope. Some of humanity, those with the hopelessly anti-feminist idea that "dominance makes a woman feel feminine" can't say the same though.

I didn't see twilight, but Blade?? cmon... that movie sucked big time, I was even stupid enough to watch the second one too.
17 Aug 2009 16:36
you mean you didnt see Blade 3: Trinity?
now ive lost all hope for humanity...haha
but seriously, I'd seen just about everything there was to do with a vampire till Blade came out,
Didnt see twilight? good. no really, you didnt miss anything. best way to sum it up,
Is imagine a 'Metro-sexual' make him a teenager, give him trippy eyes, and more appealing to homosexuals

Seb thats why roleplay exists
so couples can act out those "inbred" traits. Having never been married ( lived in sin once ) I have had quite a few girlfriends over the years and I would say well over half did have "submissive" tendencies. Once they allowed themselves to "give up control " so to speak they became much more sexual, not just orgasm wise but overall enjoyment and frequency of sex.
17 Aug 2009 17:05
That's after the fact. Marriages that end in divorce are
That leads me on to one of my other theories, that basically humans are not made to be monogam. No matter how dominant or interesting or funny guy you have, he will get boring after a while, and thats where you put in an effort to make it more interesting. (and save the marriage). I think we are driven by the urge for a the feel-good-in-love-feeling, and when we dont have that with our partner anymore, we just look for someone else.
You say you like a man that is dominant, and in the same

That attitude harkens back to the days
And indeed its illegal, but that doesn't mean it doesn't happen. We are after all still animals with desires coming from instincts. Some are just better in suppressing them than others.
Some of humanity, those with the
There are different degrees to dominance, ranging from dragging a woman into a cave to ordering for her at a restaurant without asking. And when I said a dominant mand makes a girl feel more feminine I didn't mean horny, I meant feminine in an attractive way. Horniness is an entirely different subject.

ugly vampire in blade II
well, I kinda liked number 1, so I went to see Blade II, but lost it when I saw this http://inadawords.com/wp-content/uploads/2007/12/blade-2-reaper.jpg
Twilight does seem like a teenage pleasing movie, but of course I will see it when its on tv around here, just to see what the fuss is about.
17 Aug 2009 17:36
That leads me on to one of my other theories, that
More pre-historic thinking. What humans were or weren't made for five hundred thousand years ago is irrelevant today. Some humans are still slave to their base, pre-social, caveman impulses and desires, but many are not. The same kind of men who are strive to dominate, and the same kind of women who adore domination, are the same men and women who feel a calling to the wild– to compulsively mate and be sexually promiscuous. These people have failed marriages because modern marriage calls for the individual to overcome these base impulses. And modern marriages fail because some people just can't attain that level of individual social evolution.
No matter how
That is an opinion, and I disagree completely.
And indeed its illegal, but that doesn't mean it doesn't
"Supressing" insticts isn't correct. Some people just don't have these lowly insticts, because they're not cavemen.
There are different degrees to dominance, ranging from
Ordering a woman's meal for her is just as barbaric and fundamentally disrespectful to her as anything else. It's not violent and causes no tangible harm so it's not illegal, but it still stinks of dominance and is another example of glorified caveman behavior.
And when I said a dominant mand
Of course you didn't expressly mean horny, but that's how women see it. A dominant man brings out her feminine side because it takes her back to the cave in her mind. A dominant man makes a woman feel "feminine" because he is living proof of her physical inferiority– a living reminder that, as a woman, she relies on her looks and her sexual equipment to survive, not her ability to hunt and kill food. That gives her license, and incentive, to be sexual and... "feminine."

"...to secure for the American people of present and future generations the benefits of an enduring resource of wilderness ... devoted to the public purposes of recreation, scenic, scientific, educational, conservation, and historical use."
What is considered wilderness? Wilderness is a legal designation outlined in the Wilderness Act of 1964, which offers long-term protection and conservation to identified landscapes on public land. This designation can only be made by Congress and is based on the presence of certain qualities that make up wilderness character. These special places are untrammeled - which human influence is essentially unnoticeable, natural - free from the effects of modern civilization, and undeveloped - retaining their primeval character and essentially without permanent improvements. Wilderness areas must offer outstanding opportunities for solitude or primitive and unconfined recreation. These areas are generally at least 5,000 acres in size.
Why do wilderness areas exist? With the Wilderness Act of 1964, Congress established the National Wilderness Preservation System to be composed of federally owned lands, designated by Congress, as wilderness areas. Wilderness areas have long been used for science and education; providing sites for field trips, study areas for student research, and serving as a source of instructional examples. Recreation is another obvious appeal of wilderness, as well as being places of solitude, where people can experience freedom from our fast-paced, industrialized society.
What wilderness areas are in Colorado? There are five wilderness areas in Colorado that are managed by the Bureau of Land Management: Black Ridge Canyons Wilderness, Dominguez Canyon Wilderness, Gunnison Gorge Wilderness, Powderhorn Wilderness, and Uncompahgre Wilderness. For more information on each wilderness area, please view the interactive list below.

Phil Housley
Jason Strudwick
December 12 2012 09:24AM
Looking back on my career, I was lucky enough to play with and against great players. As a Canadian, I always seemed to cheer for and follow the Canadians closer than the American or European-born players. That changed for me when I got a chance to play with Phil Housley.
We spent a lot of time together on planes, buses and restaurants during our time together in Chicago. I love to understand where a player got started in the sport. He was happy to tell me how it was to grow up playing hockey in the States, a sport that wasn't and still isn't super popular there.
He talked about what the Miracle on Ice meant to hockey players in the States. It pushed the game into a more main stream place. His NHL career started in 1982, shortly after that Miracle.
Coming straight out of high school, Housley went on to play nearly 1,500 games in the NHL and record over 1,200 points. Not too shabby no matter what country you are from!
As a team mate he always included all the guys in anything he was organizing. Trust me, not all players do that. Even though I was no longer a rookie at that point in my career, he would offer advice and offensive tips to improve my game. I always appreciated the time he took to do that.
Housley joined me on my show last week to look back at his career and his Christmas time role this year as coach of the USA world junior hockey team.
Q : You played nearly 1,500 games! What kind of success did you expect as a rookie?
I didn't expect that kind of a career. Being a high school kid jumping to the NHL was huge! I was just trying to get comfortable, you aren't predicting the future! I was living in the moment. Certainly after the years started to pile up I really dedicated myself in the summer to working out. This helped prevent injuries and prolong my career. I would never have predicted playing for twenty one years! When I was young I thought if I could just grow a mustache and play till I was 27 that would be great! That was my measurement of success. I was very fortunate to survive that long and I loved every minute of it!
Q : Do you think you were one of the first players to really start working a lot in the summers? I remember my first few years, there were many players that were not very impressive physically but I had always heard you were a guy that was in good shape. Then when we played together that was confirmed.
I think it started with the 1980 Olympic team. I remember watching videos of how they were training. They were emulating the Russians and their ways of working out. The Russian teams were always in great shape. The only way the Miracle on Ice team could hope to beat them was to be in incredible shape.
Before my first year, my agent said I would most likely have to play a half year in the minors. That really struck me. The image I had of the minors was of a league that was rough and tumble. I worked extra hard going into my rookie camp and it paid off. I was probably one of the top three fittest guys there. As you mentioned there weren't a lot of players coming to camp in great shape back then.
Being in shape for camp was something that just stuck with me the rest of my career. You feel better and have more confidence. You feel stronger and are more prepared for the season. I went in with the attitude that I had to make the team every year. It is the right attitude to have going into a camp.
Q : You were an excellent power play QB. There is a young player for the Oilers in the AHL, Justin Schultz, that could be a good one as well. What advice do you have for young offensive defenceman going into the NHL?
You have to continue working on your skating and all the other fundamental skills of handling and shooting pucks. You have to continue to work on all of that. On the power play there is an innate ability or hockey sense or strategy on how to break down a penalty kill. You need to continue to learn and adapt to the times.
There have been a lot of changes since I have been in the league. There are different ways to break out and the strategies used in zone. If you can keep up and stay a step ahead of the play you will always be in a good position on the power play to shoot, handle or pass the puck. All those little things that take a long time to really perfect. You see all the European players continue to work on their game, even at the NHL level. Before or after practice, a guy must practice the special skills. That is what you have to do to reach a high level.
Q : Many prospects have made the mistake in thinking that once they get drafted or a played a year or two in the league they have made the NHL. But really that is when the real work starts isn't it?
It definitely is true. You and I have been a part of a lot of NHL camps. You see the young guys come in and they are flying! They have a great camp but as the season wears on you can see they lose some zip in their play. These players need to continue to work on their games.
I don't care if you are a mite or a NHL player you have to do the little things before and after practice. When a player does that, it seems like their games remain consistent. If a player is having problems with a certain skill like shooting pucks coming off the wall you have to work on it. You can never do enough of that to make all your skills come naturally in the game.
Q : Who is the player in today's game you enjoy watching work the power play?
There are many guys! First guy that comes to mind is Sidney Crosby, I like watching him come off the half wall. He has that ability to find the open man with a pass but he is also a threat to score from there. I really enjoy the young defencemen from Ottawa, Erik Karlsson, who had an outstanding season last year. He is able to carry the mail and make plays inside the zone. He is a player with a bright future!
There are many guys who are at the top of their game right now like Malkin, Datsyuk and Zetterberg. The guy I really liked to watch was Nicklas Lidstrom. His ability to move on the blue line, get the middle of the ice and then have his head up while shooting the puck. He always seemed to get that puck through to create a second opportunity for another player with a tip or rebound. I really admired that about him.
Q : Who is the one player you played against that you thought had incredible talent?
Number one Wayne Gretzky, number two Mario Lemieux. They did it in different ways. Gretz had a great ability to process the game and filter it in his head way beyond anyone else. He just knew where other players were going to be.
Mario was also somewhat like that but he was more dangerous one-on-one. When he was really skating well he could protect the puck better than anybody. He could make moves in stride and that is what made him so dangerous. He could have maybe broken some of Wayne's records. I think those guys were outstanding players!
Q : All players must retire and move on to another career. How are you enjoying the coaching ranks so far?
I am really enjoying it. When I was thinking of retiring in 2003, USA Hockey asked me to be a co-coach at the U18 development program that was taking place in Switzerland. Once I got behind the bench I fell in love with it. It is the closest place you can be to the ice without playing. You can feel the emotion and intensity. I fell in love with it at that point.
I was fortunate to take on a high school coaching job here in Minnesota where I live. Just like with playing, I continue to work on becoming a better coach. I am now the head coach of the USA World Junior program. I keep learning a lot from everyone I work with.
I love it because you are part of the game even though physically you can't control it! It is still very rewarding for me.
Q : Now that you are the head coach of the USA World Junior team, how hard do you find it to pick the team?
You would like to have a couple scoring lines and a couple energy lines but sometimes it doesn't work out that way. We had a camp in early August where we evaluated forty-five players. I get a chance to watch a lot of these kids, because I am a high school coach, play at the college level but not so much at the major junior level in Canada. I can't get to the west or east coast of Canada to those junior leagues.
We certainly have other scouts watching the players from those areas that are in the hunt. I will go by the reports I get and what I saw at the summer camp. The decisions will be made collectively by the coaches and management group of the team. We have a good handle on it. There have been some players not at the summer camp that have played themselves into consideration.
Q : What are your thoughts on Seth Jones? What will he bring to your team?
Seth has a physical presence when you look at him. He is 6'5 and can skate, shoot and pass. He has got a great first pass. I believe he is made for today's game. He is able to move up with play, create offense from the back end. He plays in all situations. He has a bright future ahead. I am just glad he will be on our team, he is a specimen! He has a father that played in the NBA so he has good athletic genes. It is exciting to watch him play. He is a very special player.
Q : Other than Seth Jones, who are some players Canadian hockey fans should be watching out for?
The returning guys we should focus on first. Jacob Trouba, who still has a year of eligibility for the team next year had a big impact last year. Rocco Grimaldi is a guy that will be right in the hunt. JT Miller was on the team last year. He is playing on the farm team in New York. He is playing in a good league. Our goaltending situation will be solid. Chris Gibson is coming back from the team last year; he will most likely be our starter. It will be hard to pick this team.
Q : Sounds like there is a lot of reasons for Team USA to be optimistic at the tourney this Christmas. I will cheer for your team except when you play Canada! Does that sound fair?
We have those guys the third game of the tourney. Canada always has good World Junior teams, I am sure it will be the same this year. We will probably have our hands full. We will do the best we can!
Hall of Fame?
I have retired or current NHL'ers on my show quite often and there is a common comment they are make that is really starting to be obvious. Each one comments on how much work is required to reach the NHL level and then stay there. That is pretty incredible. Many people think these guys are the most talented hockey players and that is why they make it. They do have talent but so do thousands of others. It is their work ethic that separates them from everyone else. Good advice for a young amateur player to hear.
Now a question for you Oilers Nation..... Is Phil Housley a Hall of Famer? The numbers are impressive. What are your thoughts?
December 12 2012, 09:40AM
should go in the hall on the fist ballot.
He was purely one dimensional and far from the 4th best defenseman to play the game (heck he might only be the 4th best American defenseman to play the game), but he does rank 4th all time in points by defensemen (only Bourque, Coffey, and Macinnis have more) and you have to give that some respect.
He's not a sure-shot, but overall it would be more of a shame if he never gets in than if he eventually does, and there are likely less deserving players already in.
December 12 2012, 10:59AM
If Sundin can get in on his first ballot then Housley will get there some day.
December 12 2012, 12:22PM
Definite Yes for the HHOF
If you had a Housley and wanted 500k for it . . .
He should have been in there already.
these are the articles i love, brownlee used to put some together like these but caught some flack from a reader who did not appreciate them. please more of the same jason.
December 12 2012, 04:17PM
Housley... lets see.
Lots of games played. Lots of points, but in the '80s everybody got lots of points. No Stanley Cups.
Sorry Phil, the only way you get in the Hall is if you buy a ticket.
December 12 2012, 05:01PM
I am not sure how the #3 goal scorer of all time (d-men) does not get into the Hall of Fame. I actually think he has a one way ticket straight into the HOF!
Definitely HOF worthy. Should replace Sundin...
December 12 2012, 05:55PM
The HHOF is not the "Stanley Cup Hall of Fame"... if that was the case, reserve a spot for Dustin Penner right now... put Housely in on the first ballot... one of the best and most dangerous defencemen of his generation (along with Chelios, Al McInnis and Scott Stevens) and a pure joy to watch...
December 12 2012, 07:46PM
If you had a Housley and wanted 500k for it . . .
And someone offered you 415k for it...

California state law requires that each student enrolled in or applying for admission to a California community college provide information and evidence to determine his/her residence classification for tuition purposes. The guidelines below will help you determine if you are a California resident for purposes of attending a California community college.
Residents of California are entitled to attend a community college by paying the community college enrollment fee ($46 per unit). Nonresidents must pay the enrollment fee ($46 per unit) plus nonresident tuition ($205 per unit) plus a $10 per unit capital outlay fee.
To qualify as a resident, the student must meet the following requirements:
If the student was born outside of the United States, they must have met the above mentioned requirements, along with BCIS documentation that is dated at least one year and one day before the first day of classes for the semester they plan to attend.
If student is under 19 years of age, residency is derived from their parent or legal guardian.
California non-residents who have graduated from a California high school may qualify for the non-resident tuition exemption.
Residency Determination
The college will make final determination of residency, but the burden of proof is on the student to demonstrate clearly, with proof, both physical presence in California and intent to establish California residence.
Each student at the time of admission or readmission will be classified according to his/her legal residence.
All immigration documentation and proofs of California residency must be submitted to the Admissions and Records Office PRIOR to the start of the semester of attendance.
The following will be accepted as proof of intent to establish California residence for tuition purposes:
Conduct inconsistent with a claim for California residence includes but is not limited to:
Please note the following requirements:
Generally, intent cannot be proved with only one or two pieces of evidence. The more evidence you can present to show intent, the easier it is to become a California resident for tuition purposes. A person begins to establish intent by doing as many of the above mentioned actions AS SOON AS POSSIBLE after their arrival in California.

Traditional acupuncture is a branch of traditional Chinese medicine - a tried and tested healthcare system that has been practised for thousands of years in China and the Far East. It has been developed, tested, researched and refined over centuries to give us a complex and detailed understanding of the body's energetic balance.
The first known book of Chinese Medicine, the Classic of Internal Medicine of the Yellow Emperor, dates back to between the first century BC and the first century AD. All styles of acupuncture currently practised around the world trace their roots back to this text.
Without the help of modern scientific equipment, ancient Chinese scholars discovered many now familiar aspects of biomedical science, such as the effect of emotional stress on the immune system. Traditional acupuncturists are no less scientific or sophisticated than western clinicians in their understanding of how the body functions, although to this day they use terminology that reflects Chinese medicine's cultural and historic origins.
In China during the early part of the twentieth century traditional medicine fell out of fashion as symptomatic healthcare treatments were imported from the West along with other cultural influences. Calls by western trained doctors to ban traditional Chinese medicine were rejected by the National Medical Assembly in Shanghai on 17 March 1929. This day is still celebrated every year as Chinese Doctors' Day.
Traditional Chinese medicine remained in the shadow of western medicine until the Long March of 1934-5. Without drugs, anaesthetics or surgery vast numbers of sick and wounded soldiers faced death until doctors of traditional Chinese medicine achieved amazing results using acupuncture and other traditional methods of treatment. From this point on, traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) and western medicine were practised side by side in China. Under the People's Republic of China, established in 1948, all branches of TCM were nurtured and encouraged to grow. By 1978, whole hospitals and research departments were devoted to the practice of TCM. Today traditional acupuncture is practised all around the world and clinical trials are now confirming its efficacy. More and more people are able to benefit as traditional acupuncture becomes a recognised option within standard healthcare.

The Science of Superheroes takes a lighthearted but clearheaded look at the real science behind some of the greatest superhero comic books of all time, including Spider-Man, Batman, the Fantastic Four, and many more. Each chapter presents the origin of one or more superheroes and asks intriguing questions that lead to fascinating discussions about the limits of science, the laws of nature, and the future of technology.
If gamma rays can't turn a 128-pound weakling into the Incredible Hulk, what could? Are Spider-Man's powers really those of a spider? Could a person ever breathe water like a fish? From telepathy to teleportation, from cloning to cosmic rays, this vastly entertaining romp through the nexus of science and fantasy separates the possible from the plausible and the barely plausible from the utterly ridiculous.
You'll discover the connection between black holes and green lanterns; what Galileo could have told Professor Pym about the stresses caused by shrinking and growing; and how many of Batman's "inventions" anticipated actual technological developments. You'll learn how comic book writers use "technobabble" to create seemingly credible explanations of improbable superpowers and bizarre events.
The Science of Superheroes celebrates the ingenuity and imagination of the writers and artists behind the greatest superheroes, and offers helpful suggestions on how some characters' origin stories could be made more believable. It offers immensely enjoyable and informative listening for anyone who loves science, superheroes, or both.
The Science of Superheroes is also available in print from Wiley.

"Weinberg and Gresh tell it like it is - and how it would be, if our favorite comic book characters actually existed. The Science of Superheroes is a fascinating and entertaining examination of everything from astrophysics to genetic biology to the evolution of the 'superhero.'" (Mark Powers, editor, X-Men and Uncanny X-Men)
"To much irrelvent information"
This book simply has too much irrelevant information. It also can't seem to stay on topic. For example, in the chapter about The Flash, it talks about the anatomy of a cheetah. At first you think that's it's trying to make a point, but then it goes on never to mention the cheetah again. Also, the analysis of the powers wore sorely lacking. A good example of this was Superman. The only thing about Superman that it talks about is his super-strength. Although the analysis of his strength was good, it could've at least went into more depth about flying.
There are other examples of going off topic, such as the chapter on Green Lantern and X-Men. It briefly mentioned the validity of telepathy, but then went on to talk about evolution vs creation. In some cases, for 20 minutes it starts to make an argument which would prove some powers possible, then spends another 10 minutes proving it wrong (such as the case with Superman). There are also situations in which it openly refuses to talk about certain powers (Ex. Spiderman, Superman, X-Men).
Overall, I would not recommend this book, especially if you getting it for a certain hero, like I did. Although the actual science it provides is good in it's own respect, when talking about superheroes it's irrelevant.
"Fun read"
This is an interesting book and answers a number of questions that just aren't relevant when you're deep into comic book reading. It's a good step back from the fantasy world and provides intriguing explanations on how each superhero is able to do the things they do. I wish there were more analysis on other superheroes. Superman, Flash, Aquaman, Green Lantern, and Batman were either inadequate or just plain boring. Spiderman, Atom, and Submariner explanations were ok. Maybe the author will write a second version with analysis on characters from the Avenger, Xmen, Ironman, and DareDevil.
This first book is too long on the history of comic books and short on analysis of the superpowers. Hopefully version 2 (if it comes out) will jump directly into the analysis of each superhero's powers and analyze more Marvel characters.
"History, science, or philospohy"
The book makes some good attempts at exploring both side of the argument, but other times the scientific argument is extremely biased and irrelevant. For example: it discusses the physiology of the cheetah, efficient lungs etc..., yet fails to explore how these constraints (of the Flash) would impact his performance. It also describes the energy required for a typical human to do a certain feat, but i would not refer to the Flash as a typical human. With all thee figures being spouted, surely the argument for 100% efficiency of food consumption be explored.
By the time I reached the creationist versus science argument I was on auto-pilot, waiting patiently to finish the book.
I doubt the writers have had any thesis or science experience: commonly misusing the terms theory, truth or fact.
I was expecting a fun lighthearted exploration of comic super-heroes; I received a few interesting tid-bits hidden behind an overwhelming amount of pointless exposition.
(oh gawd, there is another book too... )
"Super Discussion"
The Science of Superhereos proved to be outstanding in two respects. First, it is a great history of comics for anyone who grew up reading comics.
But more than that, it excels ar discussing the science behond the fiction. Topics from many arreas of science are covered, including physics, astronomy, biology, evolution, and chemistry. The explanations are clear and easy to follow, even for someone with no background in science at all. It was also very entertaining. I particularly enjoyed the discussion of black holes and stellar evolution.
This book is highly recommended.
"Beautifully done!"
A grand mix of comic history, trivia, and science. Using the superheroes by nature or origin, they jump on subjects like black holes, relativity, genetics, evolution, probability of alien life, and more. As a follower of comics for decades, I was surprised at the detailed stories that were referenced and compared, some only a few years old. Whether a lover of DC or Marvel, you'll find something to interest you here. Superman, Batman, Spiderman, Xmen -they're all here to some level or not.
Maybe I'm just not enough of a comic fan, but I was generally unimpressed. It was fine I suppose. I would happily read it if it were lying on the coffee table of my dentist's waiting room. The science was fairly basic. Well read, but the content was "meh."😐
"The One, Two Punch of Heroes!"
I think I will!
This is just a fun book. I even enjoyed the Donald Duck part. I have been looking for Heroes in modern books and sadly have found few. This book allowed me to spend some quality time with some true heroes. Thanks Audible!
"Great Book Except a Little Inaccurate"
I love the concept of this book. As a hardcore superhero fan I was delighted to find out that someone had gone through the trouble of answering the questions I had always wanted to know. The narrator was top notch and kept things interesting.
The only real problem I have with this book is the last chapter. Listening to the book, things kept building and getting better, I was actually on the edge of my seat trying to guess what the final question would be. Seriously on the edge of my seat over an educational science book - WEIRD!
The thing is that the last chapter was about Donald Duck comics. And while Donald Duck had a great comic I am sure, he is in no way, shape, or form a superhero or anything that resembles a superhero.
How could the authors get it so wrong. It should have been called the Science of Comics not of superheroes.
This small complaint last them a star but it is still a great book.
"This is fun"
This book, I admit, took me a few listens before I realised how good it was. To begin with, I found it boring, then I really listened to it. It's full of information that's both informative and funny (although some of it may be out of date by now). The narration is good and the prologue is particularly funny, having been written by Dean Koontz. It gets a bit boring again towards the end when the authors questions cartoonists about the future of comic books. All in all though, it's a good listen, showing where the story of a comic book very often neglects the science in preference to the storyline. For fans of both comics and science, it's illuminating.
"Interesting for comic readers and non-readers"
For those who are interested in how superheroes are what they are, this audiobook is certainly a major pick. In short, it breaks down the possibility of having an actual "superhero" in reality. It takes some of the major superheroes of the DC/Marvel worlds like Batman or the X-Men and relates science/physics in order to prove or disprove the existence or possible existence of these characters. It brought me to a point where I can understand why some of these characters are pure fiction and some where it can actually be possible. Although this title can drag out for a while, it brings up some insights about the history of the comic industry and its people. It was pretty educational (which is a huge understatement) and I found it intriguing. For those who don't read comics or not as involved, I recommend this title for an alternative to comics. For the average comic fan, unless your uptight about certain things, go ahead and get schooled by this title. It might give something to think about.
The information being imparted here may well be accurate, but the quality of writing and the style is absolutely dire ! There is mild swearing throughout, and the reader sounds so naive and "dumb", that I keep expecting him to use words like "wow", "cool", and "awesome" at any moment. It is the most dreadful book I have ever come across.
"A bit drawn out and dry."
Some interesting discussions, but inconsistent and drawn out in parts. For example the chapter on aquaman spends far too long unpacking a modern evolutionary theory that man evolved in aquatic environments. And is it really necessary to debate fish communication in such depth. Other queries don't get sufficient coverage e.g. Batman's grapple line: could he carry enough line on his person, could the grapple penetrate walls? Ultimately a bit hit and miss and rather dry. Some interesting comic history though.

The Republican Primary will be held on June 22. The polls will be open from 7 a.m. to 8 p.m. According to County Clerk Bruce Funk the Republican party is the only party with candidates on the primary ballot. Only registered Republicans or unaffiliated voters who are willing to affiliate with the Republican Party can vote at the polls. Those persons currently registered as Democrat, Green, Personal Choice, Natural Law and Libertarian cannot change their party affiliation for the primary election.
Funk said, "There is sometimes a misunderstanding about closed primaries. It will not effect your voting abilities or preferences to vote for any party and any candidate in November if you affiliate with the Republican party to vote in this primary election. In November, you could still choose to vote Democrat even if you voted Republican in this primary election."
Local choices for the Republican candidate for county commissioner include current commissioner Drew Sitterud who is running for reelection and challenger Lou Sansevero. In the second congressional district, Tim Bridgewater and John Swallow will be on the ballot. In the governor's race Jon Huntsman, Jr. and Nolan Karras are the two choices.
Recently the Emery County Chamber of Commerce held a Meet the Candidate night where the local Republican commission candidates as well as the Democratic hopeful Gary Petty were present. Tim Bridgewater and John Swallow also attended the event.
Chamber Chairman, Mike Hurdsman was the moderator for the evening.
Sanservero addressed the audience and he said one problem in the campaign and that was a lack of name recognition. He said he has heard a lot of stories recently about who he is. One story said he was a Greek guy from Price who wants to turn Emery County into Orange County, Calif. Sansevero said that he hates palm trees and he and his wife, Jo, left the rat race to settle in Emery County. "Jo and I could have chose to live anywhere and we chose Emery County." He said he likes being close to the desert and the forest. He thinks of Emery County as home to old fashioned values and a community of neighbors. Sansevero said he is a husband, father and a Vietnam Veteran. He has a bachelor's in business administration and spent 20 years with a career as a computer systems engineer.
Sansevero said he has been told he couldn't get elected in Emery County because he is not from here. He said he views not being from here as an advantage, he owes no favors and holds no grudges and has a fresh point of view. He said the county is in trouble although some people will tell you things are fine, and the high unemployment in the county is an indicator of those troubles. "The unemployment is 10-11 percent, which is twice the national average and that is not fine," said Sansevero. He said that Emery County has one of the highest per capita incomes in the state which means the people with jobs have good paying jobs. "Senator Bob Bennett said, 'If your neighbor is out of work it's a recession, if you're out of work it's a depression.' With 10-11 percent unemployment, I'd say we're in a depression and I'd like to do something about that. The young people have to head up north, your neighbors have to head up north, and that ain't fine. We need to help them out. The mineral lease money is in a decline and mining which has been a foundation is in a decline. Coal production is at a all time low."
Sansevero said the county is dependant on an industry which is in the decline and our communities are struggling to survive. He said we need to diversify to reduce the impact of these declines and become thriving, vibrant communities with economic growth and maintain the lifestyle we love, want and deserve. Hard work has made Utah world famous, with intelligent, well planned activity, recruiting tech based business and actively encouraging and supporting local businesses to provide more customers; we can involve citizens in the business of government, because government is a business and we can form partnerships. We can elect people to office with the vision and resolve to succeed. "I have the vision, the energy and the resolve to help get us there," said Sansevero.
A question was asked about what the kind of business Sansevero would bring into the county. Sansevero said he is currently working with an individual to bring part of an electrical business to the county and will continue to work to do something to help the county whether he is elected or not.
Sansevero also said that the county could be made attractive to businesses because of the lower overhead costs involved in operating here mentioning lower electric bills and workman's compensation taxes than in California. He said businesses who employ 50-100 people would be more likely to be recruited than larger companies who need more workers. He said he would work to sell the county and get out to trade shows to show what Emery County has to offer.
Sansevero said that county government can go out and look for grants for local businesses to expand and grow. He believes it is a function of local government to help local businesses to grow.
Sitterud was next to address the audience. He mentioned the lawsuit against the county which contends that the county is not protecting roads and taking BLM money. Sitterud said this is not true and the county has a contract with the BLM to provide a law enforcement presence on the Swell and the officer can only enforce state laws. The county is under an obligation to protect with or without the BLM funds.
At the beginning of the wild and scenic river issue the forest service had 38 rivers and now one river is left. The county has been fighting on a monthly basis at meetings with the forest service on wild and scenic river issues. The left fork of the Huntington is being considered for a scenic designation and the right fork a recreational designation. Any wild and scenic designation comes with a half a mile strip of wilderness with it along the riverside. Sitterud stressed that the county cannot afford any type of a designation on the Huntington or any other river. He cited a case in Colorado where a recreation designation of a river led to kayakers bringing a lawsuit to run water down the river for their use and the farmers lost out when a court ruled in their favor. Sitterud said the same thing happened in the Klamath Falls area where farmers lost their water. Sitterud said the county is doing everything they can to fight wild and scenic rivers. Sitterud said the work with the BLM has not been as successful as with the forest service. In one year's time, only one river has been eliminated on the BLM and 22 dry washes remain.
Sitterud said he believes maintaining our water supply is the biggest issue we have. Regarding economic development, Sitterud said four businesses are currently looking at the county for relocation. The new landfill down in Green River will employ 20 people when it gets started and they are still in the permitting process. Sitterud also stated that you need water for any new economic developments.
Sitterud said on the RS-2477 road issue, Emery County is doing what it is supposed to, they have gathered pictures, historical data, GPS data and recorded histories. The records are at the state attorney general's office waiting to be used.
Sitterud said he has learned something in the last four years and you need to have people behind you at the federal and state level working together.
Sitterud reacted to the statement that the county has not taken a proactive approach. He said the people of Emery County voted against the monument which was a proactive approach. Also legislation the county has presented in Congress over the last several years for a conservation area and other designations has failed.
Sitterud mentioned the grant monies the county has obtained recently to help rejuvenate the Huntington airport and also a grant for the ball complex for dugouts and fencing. The low water boat ramp money for Joe's Valley was also approved.
Petty was the first to address the audience, he thanked the chamber for giving him an opportunity to express his views on the issues. He said he had recently attended a meeting on public lands. He said it seemed like a few years ago the county was in an offensive mode in dealing with public lands and now seem to be in a defensive mode and reacting to what the BLM and the forest service dish out. An ATV group currently has a lawsuit against Emery County. Petty said it is his goal to provide leadership to bring the public lands issue to a closure. He feels the different groups involved are not communicating and that sometimes they all want the same things in the long run. No group is going to get everything they want.
Petty said he feels in the last 10 years not much has been done to improve economic development in the county. Unemployment is high and the mines and power plants need less people to operate than previously. Young people are forced to leave the county to find employment. Petty wants to offer incentives to business to locate here and for local businesses already here to expand. Petty mentioned two Emery businesses they had worked with when he was the mayor of Emery who are doing very well now, due in part to incentives to help them become established. Petty also said he wishes to establish a closer working relationship with the cities.

Bryant Cottage was built in 1856 by Francis E. Bryant (1818-1889), a friend and political ally of Senator Stephen A. Douglas. According to Bryant family tradition, on the evening of July 29, 1858, Douglas and Abraham Lincoln conferred in the parlor of this house to plan the famous Lincoln-Douglas Debates. The picturesque one-story, four-room wood frame cottage has been "restored" and is interpreted as an example of a middle-class life in mid-nineteenth-century Illinois. The furniture on display is of the Renaissance Revival style, appropriate for a small-town family of the mid-nineteenth century. The cottage is accessible to persons with disabilities. The site hosts portions of a variety of locally sponsored events throughout the year.

"I bought this shoe in taupe and black and while they are super cute, they are hard as a rock and KILL my feet. They feel ok when I first put them on but after some time they rub on the tops of my toes and make me cry on the inside. It doesn't seem like they will break in and ever feel better. I hope they do!"

Pretty but tight fit
"This shoe is gorgeous, but I'm contemplating returning it. It's not too comfy -- wish the heel was higher and wish it had more support. The fit is annoying. 7.5 is a bit too tight and size 8 was falling off my feet. Otherwise, the shoe is well-made, maybe just not for my irregularly sized feet."

"I bought these and also purchased heel liners to see if they would help. I have since tried them on a couple times to wear out of the house and have avoided them. They are stiff and hurt my heel after just a few minutes. I will likely return them as I cannot suffer through uncomfortable shoes for an entire day. They are really cute though, so it is a shame."

GDB 13: It's on
November 06 2008 10:19AM
Of all the games the Oilers have played so far this year, tonight's is by far the biggest.
"But why Wanye? It's just another game isn't it?" Are you kidding? The results of this game will cement our reputation with a bunch of strangers in Pittsburgh! Oilers win, they'll all hate us. Oilers lose, they'll all hate us. Who can live with the uncertainty!?
This is why gambling was invented by Eduardo Las Vegas in 1879—to make sports more interesting. We took up the cause started by our boys over at jeanshortsandbaggedmilk, who have been deftly battling with this huge blog in Pittsburgh all by themselves.
We aren't going to leave our friends fighting solo. It's like in Junior High School when your friend would get challenged to a schoolyard fight. What do you do? You third-man-in and crack the kid in the skull with your Thermos! Take that Jeremy Tandrup, age ten. Don't mess with our crew. We have never been afraid to get involved in any nonsense that comes our way.
So we contacted these dudes at pensblog. They ignored our email. Then we chirped them. Then they claimed they didn't get the email. Then we went out of town and ignored them. Then made contact and the bet is cemented.
Why should you care about the game tonight? Oilers win, the pensblog will purchase the first two NationGear T-shirts off the line in Dec 2008; we'll give them to two lucky citizens of the Nation. Oilers lose, we have to buy two of their T-shirts for giveaways to their fans. Oh and the loser has to write an article explaining the awesomeness of the winning city.
"But Wanye you don't got no money. You ain't gonna pay for no T-shirts!" That's right Nation. Oilers lose tonight and your ol' pal Wanye is going to have to sell an eyeball. Ever see Pirate Wanye with an eye patch? It ain't pretty.
Oh and Justice League? We hear that Pens fans will be in attendance tonight.
It's on.
—Wanna talk to your ol' pal Wanye? E-mail him at firstname.lastname@example.com.

Uhh...wait...what? I come home and it's already 2-0? What the hell happened?
November 06 2008, 06:00PM
So, upon reviewing the highlights, I see that we allowed a guy to score one handed, between his legs from the side of the net. And that no one told me the Penguins have one of the best hockey players in the world. Perhaps I should listen to more Pierre McGuire.

medical trainer kevin lowe?
November 06 2008, 06:03PM
Anyone have any insight on how Peckham's done so far? And it looks like Goddard is MacIntyre's only weakness. His kryptonite if you will.
November 06 2008, 06:05PM
You ask and Louis Debrusk with the answer.
November 06 2008, 06:06PM
I think it was Peckham who sorta was worried about the Croz and left Satan all alone to do what he did. Other than that...ok?
Ninja: Ken Lowe is the medical trainer.
November 06 2008, 06:07PM
Debrusk said Kevin Lowe when Mac went off. Too many punches to the face.
November 06 2008, 06:08PM
hemsky has an easy bake oven for a slapshot
November 06 2008, 06:08PM
We're on the powerplay right?
November 06 2008, 06:10PM
Pittsburgh figured out our only weakness. As long as the other team only has four skaters on the ice, it's almost impossible for the oilers to score. ALMOST impossible.
November 06 2008, 06:11PM
I hate these "is this the year?" commercials.
November 06 2008, 06:12PM
Yup. Going to be a long night.

just what we needed
November 06 2008, 06:17PM
we can't pick up a rebound to save our coach's life.
November 06 2008, 06:17PM
Somebody needs to give MacT a beer and the keys to the bus. That will get the boys attention.
November 06 2008, 06:18PM
BM Wayne pulled a similar one last week... yet it was still funny tonight
November 06 2008, 06:19PM
Ever misspell your own name cause you are using your roomates computer cause yours is totally screwed?
Ever bet on the Oilers and wonder why?
(soils pants)
November 06 2008, 06:19PM
HG go back and check it out. Twas my comment. That's right. I went there.
November 06 2008, 06:20PM
that's what we need up beside the record on this site - consecutive days of MacT, to the second...

@ PensBlog

Wanye: I feel your pain. We picked the fight.
November 06 2008, 06:22PM
When did MacT take over as coach of the Oilers?
November 06 2008, 06:23PM
is JDD on the bench?
November 06 2008, 06:23PM
8 long years ago.
November 06 2008, 06:23PM
Well, don't we look like aholes now.
November 06 2008, 06:24PM
aaaand another penalty. Good game so far boys.
November 06 2008, 06:24PM
Wiki says...
MacTavish didn't leave the game, however, returning for the 1997–98 season as an assistant coach with the Rangers. After two seasons in the Big Apple, he joined the Oilers as an assistant coach in the 1999–2000 season. He was subsequently promoted to the top job after head coach Kevin Lowe moved into the general manager position.
You guys are in trouble
Oops...another goal.
November 06 2008, 06:25PM
GOOO Penguins!!! WOO... Oh wait.
November 06 2008, 06:25PM
YANK HIM - don't wreck our goalie!!!!
Wow - this did not go according to plan...
November 06 2008, 06:26PM
did we dress an AHL team tonight!?
Here comes the rookie!
November 06 2008, 06:26PM
Okay. So I've loaded up the revolver. It's time to hop on the suicide bus. WHO'S WITH ME!!

The most important thing to consider when searching for a rental water truck is the capacity of its tank. Typically, a rented water truck with a larger tank won't need to be refilled as often. This can increase productivity and reduce the amount of time spent on each job.
Water trucks are often seen on construction sites. In addition to moving behind grading equipment and releasing water to reduce the ability of dust to remain airborne, water trucks also have other uses as well

Access 2016 has all the functionality and features you're used to with some added enhancements and the best new features from Office 2016. Here are some of the top new features you'll find in Access 2016:
Note: For Access 2016, no existing features or functionality from previous versions were deprecated in this release.
Upgrading from Access 2013
If you're upgrading to Access 2016 from Access 2013, you'll still have all the features you're used to—and you'll notice a few new ones as well. The first thing you'll see when you open Access 2016 is that it has the familiar look of 2013 with a more colorful border.
Do things quickly with Tell Me
You'll notice a text box on the ribbon in Access 2016 that says Tell me what you want to do. This is a text field where you can enter words and phrases related to what you want to do next and quickly get to features you want to use or actions you want to perform. You can also choose to get help related to what you're looking for.
Can't find a button? Click inside the Tell Me box (it's the box at the top, with the light bulb). Type a button or command, like "filter", and you'll see all of your filter-related options listed for you.
Note: The Tell Me box is not available in the ribbon when designing Access web apps.
New themes for the Access program
There are now two Office themes that you can apply to the Access program: Colorful and White. To access these themes, go to File > Options > General, and then click the drop down menu next to Office Theme.
Export linked data source information to Excel
Have you ever wanted to get a nice list of all the linked data sources from your Access database application into Excel? If you are working on a complex Access application, for example, that includes links to many different data sources, it can be helpful to have a nice list of all the various data sources and their types. This exported list can be especially helpful if you are working on an Access application you did not originally design. Now with Access 2016, you'll find this task much easier using new functionality built into the Linked Table Manager dialog.
Open the Linked Table Manager dialog by clicking External Data > Linked Table Manager. Select the linked data sources you want to list and then click Export to Excel.
Access prompts you for a location to save the Excel workbook. After you provide a save location, Access displays the linked data sources information in the new workbook. You'll see the name of the linked data source, its source information, and the data source type.
Note: The Linked Table Manager dialog is not available when designing Access web apps.
Templates get a modern look and feel
If you want to organize and manage your data with Access but you'd like some help getting started with designing the database, try using a desktop database template. In Access 2016, five of the most popular database templates have been redesigned to have a more modern look and feel. To try these templates out yourself, go to File > New, and then search for Asset tracking, Contacts, Event management, Students, or Task Management.
You can also review the following videos which demonstrate how to use these revised sample templates.
Each of these templates includes a new Getting Started form with links to articles, videos, and other community resources.
Here's a quick look at the first data entry form in each of these revised templates:
To learn more about Access desktop templates, see Use a template to create an Access desktop database.
Larger Show Table dialog
We've listened to customer feedback about the Show Table dialog. In Access 2016, the default height of the Show Table dialog has been increased so you can easily see more table and query names in your database.
To view the Show Table dialog in queries, click Create > Query Design. The Show Table dialog opens by default. You can also open this dialog in queries by clicking Design > Show Table. To view the Show Table dialog in the Relationships window, click Database Tools > Relationships. The Show Table dialog opens by default. You can also open this dialog in the Relationship window by clicking Design > Show Table.
Note: The Relationships window is not available in Access web apps.
Access web app features coming to SharePoint on-premise customers
With the upcoming release of SharePoint 2016, customers using SharePoint 2016 with Access Services within their organizations will see additional features and take advantage of service improvements.
Here is a list of Access web app features in Access Services coming for SharePoint 2016:
Cascading controls
Datasheet filter improvements
Related Item Control enhancements
Image storage and performance improvements
Office Add-ins integration with Access web apps
Additional packaging and upgrade functionality for Access web app packages
On Deploy macro action for upgrade scenarios
Lock tables from editing functionality
Download in Excel feature for datasheet views

New 2009 Interface for Agricultural Databases
Three important UC Davis agricultural library databases are now available on the OvidSP interface: CAB Abstracts (the largest international bibliographic database in agriculture); Agricola (U.S. centric with excellent coverage of USDA & Experiment Station publications); and Food Science & Technology Abstracts, FSTA (the most comprehensive database of post-harvest processing literature).
- CAB Abstracts (http://ovidsp.ovid.com/ovidweb.cgi?T=JS&MODE=ovid&NEWS=N&PAGE=main&D=cabz)
- Agricola (http://ovidsp.ovid.com/ovidweb.cgi?T=JS&MODE=ovid&NEWS=N&PAGE=main&D=agra)
- Food Science & Technology Abstracts (FSTA) (http://ovidsp.ovid.com/ovidweb.cgi?T=JS&MODE=ovid&NEWS=N&PAGE=main&D=fsta)
Please Note: The SilverPlatter interface is being retired at the end of March for CAB Abs & Agricola, and at the end of February for FSTA. It is recommended that agricultural database searchers transition to the new interface as soon as possible.
Transition Help Available: Classes are available to help you make the switch to OvidSP. Please sign up online (https://www.lib.ucdavis.edu/dept/instruc/classes/descriptions.php#class66)

Equally at home on a starlet's stiletto as it is on a cowboy's dusty boot, snakeskin adds texture, interest, and a femme-fatale swagger to everything it touches.
Startlingly adaptable, python lends a tone of timeless luxury to classic silhouettes (like Elizabeth and James heels or Vera Wang ballet flats), while in the hands of fearlessly fashion-forward designers like Maison Martin Margiela and Camilla Skovgaard, it infuses abstract designs with life and energy. Even traditional closet staples, like Hunter boots or Tory Burch flip flops, become eye-catching statements when incarnated in a textured serpent print.
If you're still not convinced, consider that no two snakeskins (or snake prints) are alike. With finishes, textures, and colors ranging from super-subtle to rough-and-tumble, they're as diverse as the ladies who love them.

Summer doesn't really start in Maine until the Fourth of July. June is still too cool for swimming, and beach traffic is slow. Next weekend marks the start of our short season: eight weeks of heat, humidity, and hiding from the tourists.
Fortunately, the arrival of my least favorite weather coincides with Maine strawberry season. Smaller and sweeter than berries shipped from California, Maine berries taste almost like honey.
These easy shortcakes are perfect for a Fourth of July barbecue. They're the traditional biscuit variety, with a touch of nutmeg flair. All three components can be made ahead of time. For a really decadent summer treat, try vanilla ice cream instead of whipped cream.
Red, White, and Blue Shortcakes
Adapted from Williams-Sonoma: Desserts (The Best of the Kitchen Library)
2 tablespoons granulated sugar
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon nutmeg
4 tablespoons non-hydrogenated vegan margarine
6 tablespoons vanilla soy milk
3 cups fresh berries (mixture of strawberries and blueberries)
2-4 tablespoons powdered sugar
1/2 teaspoon lemon zest
coconut cream (solids from a chilled can of coconut milk)
1 tablespoon powdered sugar
Preheat oven to 400F and lightly grease a cookie sheet.
In a large bowl, sift together flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, and nutmeg. Add margarine and beat at medium speed until small crumbs form. Stir in soy milk and form dough into a ball. Dough will be sticky.
Divide dough into fourths, and pat into 1-inch thick rounds. Place a few inches apart on baking sheet. Bake 12-15 minutes, until bottoms of cakes are lightly golden. Remove from cookie sheet and cool on a wire rack.
While cakes cool, rinse and slice berries. Toss with powdered sugar and lemon zest and set aside.With electric mixer on high speed, whip coconut cream and remaining powdered sugar until fluffy.
To assemble, slice cakes in half horizontally. Spoon berry mixture and whipped cream over bottom half and replace top of cake.
Serves 4.

Home Pregnancy Test FAQs
Since its introduction in 1977, the home pregnancy test has been the easiest and most private way to find out if you are pregnant. The test kits are inexpensive and can be purchased without a prescription at any drug store. Extremely dependable when used correctly, many home pregnancy tests can tell you if you are pregnant as soon as the first day of your missed period.
What is hCG?
Why does the hCG level of the test matter?
How do home pregnancy tests work?
How accurate are home pregnancy tests on the first day of a missed period?
How soon after ovulation can I test?
How long do I need to hold my urine before taking a home pregnancy test? Because home pregnancy tests detect hCG, it is best to collect urine containing the highest amount of the hormone. Diluted urine, caused by drinking a lot of fluids, can lower the test's accuracy. Waiting at least 5 hours after going to the bathroom before taking a home pregnancy test is sufficient, but your first morning urine is considered the best because it contains the most concentrated presence of hCG.
How do I take a home pregnancy test?

The Southern Illinois University Department of Athletics announced on Thursday its 2013 Saluki Hall of Fame Class. The distinguished, six-person class, which will be formally inducted in a ceremony on Friday, Feb. 15, 2013, is headlined by first-ballot inductees Jamaal Tatum (Men's Basketball), Arkee Whitlock (Football) and Cassidy Scoggins (Softball), as well as Becky Lis (Softball), Joe Wallis (Baseball) and Tom McAneney (Swimming).
Tatum (2003-07) led the Salukis to the NCAA Tournament all four years, including a Sweet 16 appearance in 2007. He ranks seventh in career scoring (1,667), fourth in career 3-pointers made (220), eighth in career steals (159) and 13th in career assists (309).
In his senior year, Tatum was the MVC Player of the Year, an Honorable Mention All-American and Second-Team Academic All-American. He is the school's career scoring leader in NCAA Tournament games (99) and MVC Tournament games (158). The team record during his career was 103-31, and SIU won the MVC regular-season title three times and MVC Tournament once. Presently, he is the head coach and teaches at Russellville H.S. (Mo.).
Whitlock (2004-06) had a remarkable three-year career as a running back for the Salukis and ranks second in career rushing yards (4,241) behind only Tom Koutsos. He is also second in career rushing TDs (51), 100-yard rushing games (20), and set the school record for rushing TDs in a season (25) in 2006.
Whitlock was the College Sporting News National Player of the Year (2006) and a two-time First-Team All-American (2005, 2006). He was a unanimous All-American in 2006 and finished third in Payton Award voting -- the highest finish by a player in school history. He was a three-time All-Conference pick and played in the 2006 Hula Bowl after his senior year. After being released by the Minnesota Vikings and San Francisco 49ers, he played three seasons with the Edmonton Eskimos. He currently works as a high school football coach.
Scoggins (2004-07) was a three-time First Team All-MVC (2005, 2006, 2007) selection and one of the most dominating pitchers in school history. In 2006, she was named the MVC Pitcher of the Year. She ranks second in career wins (81), complete games (79), shutouts (35) and no-hitters (6), and third in strikeouts (713).
She helped lead the Salukis to four NCAA Tournament appearances and was a nember of two MVC Championship teams. Among her many honors were MVC All-Tournament Team (2007), All-Great Lakes Region First-Team (2005, 2006), MVC Scholar Athlete First-Team (2006, 2007) and CoSIDA ESPN The Magazine Academic All-District (2005, 2006). Presently, she works as a dietician for a hospital in Texas.
Lis (1994-1997) played third base for the Salukis and was a two-time First Team All-MVC (1996, 1997) selection. She ranks first in career average (.362) and doubles (47), second in career hits (221) and triples (18), third in runs scored (150) and sixth in RBI (122). She was also a Second-Team All-Great Lakes Region pick (1994, 1997).
