Aurora Research Institute
Helping People Live Well through Research Innovation
Research specialists at Aurora Research Institute are committed to conducting cutting edge bench and clinical research, integrating this knowledge at the patient's bedside and communicating valuable patient-centered results to the community. Beneficial patient-centered outcomes are the focus of medical research at Aurora Health Care.
There are two primary areas of patient-centered research at Aurora Health Care: investigator-initiated research and clinical trials. Investigator-initiated research includes projects and programs that Aurora physicians and scientists develop within their special interest areas. Clinical trials are industry and government-sponsored projects that provide opportunities to present new treatmentsto the community.
Both research areas are supported by Aurora's Research Centers, which include the following programs, centers and laboratories: Aurora University of Wisconsin Medical Group (AUWMG), Biomedical Research (Basic and Applied Research), Sheikh Khalifa bin Hamad Al Thani Center for Integrative Research on Cardiovascular Aging, Center for Urban Population Health (CUPH), Comprehensive Breast Care Center Aurora Sinai Medical Center, Personalized Medicine Institute – ORBIT (Open-Source Robotic Biorepository and Informatics Technology), Regenerative Medicine Center (Cell Therapy), St. Luke's Center for Gastroenterology Research.
These specialized programs allow physicians and scientists to focus on core areas and provide the best patient-centered outcomes. Medical residents and fellows also have the opportunity to learn from leading physicians and scientists. Aurora also offers researchers informatics support through novel data mining techniques, which is viewed as an integral part of Aurora's ability to take advantage of its resources to enhance provider clinical quality, individualize treatment and improve financial performance. In addition, Aurora investigators have access to the organization's Institutional Review Board (IRB), to ensure compliance with all applicable human subjects protection guidelines.
Through the Patient-Centered Research area, Aurora offers two levels of service to investigators interested in pursuing research studies. The Investigator-Initiated Research (IIR) team fosters scientific relationships, offering guidance to investigators in the areas of research design, analysis and review. IIR also translates results from the scientist's bench to the patient's bedside and into the community. The Sponsored Programs Office offers pre-award project planning and development.
Aurora Health Care conducts patient-centered research studies in the areas of cardiac, oncology, neurological and woman's health care, among others. The health care system incorporates cutting-edge research and evidence-based best practice into high-quality patient care. With hundreds of active clinical trials and investigator-initiated study protocols at any given time, Aurora patients can choose to participate in a variety of projects, including those focused on treatments, prevention, diagnostics, screening and quality of life.
Patient-Centered Outcomes Research: Integrating Clinical Research into Patient Care
There are four dimensions of outcomes for medical research. A study or clinical research project may produce an outcome in one or multiple dimensions.
- Community - benefits to the community through awareness, education or services.
- Communicating new knowledge - publications, standards of practice, and refinded techniques, policies and procedures in the health and medical fields through shared knowledge.
- Idividual Patient and Populations - improvements in the patient outcomes and managing the health of populations are seen as a result of studies performed.
- System/Insitutional - improved efficiencies in institutional processes or operating costs (focused on return on investment, or ROI).
Patient-Centered Medical Research Outcomes at Aurora
- Firsts: CORE valve, and an oral multiple sclerosis drug trial.

By from Ooltewah, TN
We've ordered from Blindsgalore for over 20 years without one single problem. We're both picky and want things right. We especially love the cordless pleated shades. We have a beautiful view and we like to enjoy it. These shades allow us to that.View this product
"Great cordless blinds"
By decorating one step at a time! from Smyrna, GA
I am VERY pleased with the cordless blinds, and especially the blind for my skylight. I have purchased cordless blinds before, and the ones I purchased from Blindsgalore for 4 rooms were easier to install and look great.View this product

Hermione Granger's flask
Redirected from Hermione's Flask
this wiki
|"Are you a wizard or not?"
The title of this article is conjectural. Although it is based on canonical information, the actual name is conjecture and may be supplanted at any time by additional information released from canonical sources. If this occurs, please move this page to the appropriate title.
- "A flask, conjured from thin air, was thrust into his shaking hands by Hermione."
- —Description[src]
This flask was conjured by Hermione Granger on 1 May, 1998.
On the night of 1 May, 1998 at approximately eleven o'clock, Harry Potter, Ronald Weasley and Hermione Granger met Professor Severus Snape in the Shrieking Shack.
The latter had been sliced apart by Lord Voldemort's snake Nagini. He was quickly dying, and urged Harry to take the memories that flew from him as his life drained away. Hermione, her hands shaking slightly, conjured this flask to capture the memories in.
Use and post-use
- "The green eyes found the black, but after a second something in the depths of the dark pair seemed to vanish, leaving them fixed, blank and empty. The hand holding Harry thudded to the floor, and Snape moved no more."
- —The death of Severus Snape[src]
Harry took the flask with trembling hands and carefully retrieved his late Professor's memories at the latter's urging. When the last of Snape's life had left him, Harry returned to the castle where he viewed Snape's memories in Albus Dumbledore's Pensieve.
It is unknown what happened to the flask; it presumably vanished as all conjured objects tend to do, although it may have lasted and been picked up by someone else, eventually.

Ford Expedition / Lincoln Navigator Rear Cross Drilled & Slotted 1-Piece Sport Rotors
- Cross-Drilled / Slotted
- Rear
- AP Racing BBK Drill Pattern Match
Mfg Part # : FOR6001XS
Cross Drilled & Slotted Rotors
Cross drilled and slotted rotors combine the best features of a slotted rotor and a cross drilled rotor. Fewer holes mean longer brake pad life with no penalty in the way of initial brake pad bite. The improved bite and cooling from the cross drilled pattern combined with the ventilation and pad out gassing offered by the slots offers the best of both worlds.
When you look through the wheel of a vehicle and you see the aggressive cross drilled slotted pattern, you know that driver is serious about performance! STILLEN's cross drilled and slotted rotors are engineered to bolt directly to your factory braking system and require no modifications. The average driver will not notice any excess wear or decrease in durability over a cross drilled or slotted rotor.
Features of STILLEN Cross Drilled & Slotted Rotors:
- Combines the benefits of cross-drilling and slotting for the best of both worlds.
- Fewer holes mean longer pad life with little penalty in the way of initial pad bite.
- Additional leading edges offer improved brake pad grip.
- Under hard use, cross drilled holes provide better cooling.
- Holes are radius-chamfered with special tooling, minimizing stress-risers for maximum resistance to heat and longer rotor life compared to lower-priced cross drilled and slotted rotor offerings.
- CAD software is used to design and test the optimum face pattern for full pad sweep, reduced hot spots and minimal grooving.
- Rotors arrive finished, machine-balanced and ready to install!
If you're into high performance driving or push your vehicle's limits on the track, then a cross drilled and slotted rotor is for you. If you drive in a mountainous environment where hard braking is the norm, a cross drilled and slotted rotor is for you as well. The everyday driver who is serious about the styling of their vehicle and enjoys maximum braking performance will be more than satisfied with a cross drilled and slotted rotor.
For optimum braking performance, we recommend pairing your new Cross Drilled and Slotted Rotors with a set of high performance brake pads and steel brake lines.
To get started, choose your vehicle above to find the cross drilled and slotted rotor for your vehicle. Need help? Give one of our Power, Performance and Style Experts a call at (866)250-5542 with any questions you may have. They'll ensure you select the right brake components to suit your vehicle and driving needs.
About STILLEN Parts & Accessories
Steve Millen Sportparts, Inc. and STILLEN humbly started their race to the front of the pack in 1986. Starting with aftermarket mini-truck appearance packages, we quickly found ourselves fulfilling customer's requests to build products for other vehicles such as vans and full-sized trucks.
With that came performance parts, suspension pieces, and upgraded brake products such as big brake systems. Capitalizing on his racing career, and knowing what it took to make sports cars perform like no other, it was only natural for Steve Millen to branch out into the import car scene. Over two decades later, we offer a full array of products encompassing styling, performance, handling, and braking products for just about any car, truck, or SUV.

Scholars to debate revoking John Walker's citizenship, April 18
Posted April 16, 2002; 01:25 p.m.
Two legal scholars will debate "Should the U.S. Revoke John Walker's Citizenship?" at 7 p.m. Thursday, April 18, in the Whig Hall Senate Chamber.
Walker is the 21-year-old American who went from Marin County, Calif., to a Mazar-i-Sharif prison after being captured fighting for the Taliban.
Jonathan Turley, a professor at George Washington University Law School, will take the position that Walker can and should be stripped of his citizenship. Squaring off with Turley will be J.M. Spectar, a former law professor and current director of studies at Princeton's Rockefeller College.
The debate is sponsored by the Ivy Leaguers for Freedom, the Princeton Committee Against Terrorism , and the Center for New Black Leadership. It is supported by funding from the Woodrow Wilson School of Public and International Affairs, the Office of the Dean of Undergraduate Students, and the Undergraduate Student Government Projects Board.

Perfect Presents for Any Occasion
"I was walking our dog with my father when a neighbor's dog dashed toward us. Suddenly I was turning round and round with the dogs chasing each other around me — in a not entirely friendly way. Becoming dizzy, I collapsed on the grass, but the dogs didn't stop running and growling. My dad, thinking the other dog would turn on me, stepped forward to get between them and me and nearly fell down himself.
All right, that's not unusual; fathers protect their daughters every day. But at the time I was 64 and he was 91. In his tenth decade, he still felt that he should put himself between me and any danger." — Sara Burroughs, Shreveport LA
"My parents retired and moved to Arizona in 1994, but my dad was not meant to sit still. Since he loved children, he applied to become a school bus driver. My dad loved every minute driving "his" bus, as he called it.
On Halloween the school allowed him to dress as Dr. Seuss. He had so much fun and the children loved him! This picture is from one Halloween when he drove the bus and took my son (his grandson) to school with him for the day. They had a blast.
When my dad passed away I asked the school if they could bring "his" bus to the funeral home as I knew my dad would be watching and so happy to see it. Sure enough, the day of his funeral, there was his sparkling clean bus parked outside with a sign that the kids made for him.
Today, I volunteer at the school library my son attends. The school was celebrating Dr. Seuss' 100th Birthday, so I dressed up as Dr. Seuss and read to the children. I could actually feel my dad watching and smiling down at me." — Beverlee Feldman

About Other California
California has nearly 100 American Viticulture Areas (AVAs) and accounts for almost 90% of wine production in the United States. In our section of Other California, we include wines from smaller AVAs as well as wines from the California AVA. Here are a few smaller AVAs you may see on the label:
Livermore Valley AVA, located right outside of San Francisco and home to wineries such as Wente.
Lodi County AVA, an AVA further east of San Francisco and known for its excellent, old-vine Zinfandels.
San Francisco Bay AVA, a sprawling AVA that covers Contra Costa, Santa Clara and Santa Cruz counties, to name a few. Wine that holds only the California AVA is typically a wine that includes grapes from a number of different AVAs, which leads to the general labeling of the wine as California. This does not denote the quality of the wine, only the diversity of where the grapes originate.
About Washington
So how does a state known for rain and coffee produce high quality wines? They plant their grapes on the east side of the Cascade mountains, away from that ever-present rain cloud that sits along the coast. Perhaps wine grapes do well since the sandy loam soils east of the Cascade range give way to an almost desert-like land, saved from drought only by the helpful rivers that run through the area – and the good irrigation systems.
Thinking that the state would do best with typical northern growing grapes like Riesling and Gewurtztraminer, turns out the apple state is well-suited for reds, namely Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon and, more recently, Syrah. Of course, whites have not been forgotten - Washington State Rieslings range from bone-dry to sweet, are well-structured and high quality, and Chardonnay dominates most of the other white plantings, making a range of wines. But the reds of the region, Merlot in particular, have made Washington State a quality force to be reckoned with.

"The string quartet was the medium Beethoven reserved for his most intimate and personal musical expressions, and the cycle is an inside peek into this great man's inner life from the age of 30 until his very last months. Hearing the quartets in compositional order, the audience follows Beethoven's own life experiences, from concert to concert, in the evolution and flow of the music: from youth and success, through frustration and personal challenges; through his maturity; and through his final struggles with illness, relationships, and ultimately with death. The genius of his music is that it seems to speak directly to us, with a wordless voice of understanding, compassion and hope.
To go on the journey of the complete Beethoven quartet cycle together is a rare, often once-in-a-lifetime experience. To share this tremendous experience with you is one of the most meaningful things that we, as artists, ever do." - Daniel, Will, John, and Josh

"Sarasota Tomorrow" campaign co-chairs John Cranor, Teri Hansen, and Rick Piccolo shared plans last week for their push for a brighter economy with Sarasota Tomorrow–NEXT. The first "Sarasota Tomorrow" campaign was in effect from 2008 to 2012.
"The successes of Sarasota Tomorrow were impressive, but we still have work to do," Sarasota Chamber president Steve Queior said. "Over the next three years, we will undertake four major initiatives"
Over the next three years, the campaign's goals are to improve the business climate for employers and developing new business opportunities in the city's core business districts.
"We can finally achieve the goal of a destination conference center, which is projected to attract $44.6 million in new annual spending by outside groups, and we can focus on augmenting the resident population to our downtown," Queior said.
The new campaign was introduced at a meeting Jan. 31 as more than 100 business and community leaders gathered at the Orioles Clubhouse at Ed Smith Stadium.

|Yak Attack Kayaks and flyfishing = ultimate stealth
|Topic Review (Newest First)
|Juro, That is my favorite spot from a boat. This year it is full of lobster gear. The fish are there. I have taken bluefish to 13 lbs. Fun when they chase poppers on the surface in the rip. My personal favorite is Sugar reef. They do fish Watch hill Reef from yaks. My son, when he gos offshore trolls thru by the mast for bluefish. Inshore he fishes Montaup,NY , and Southwest reef for bass. Bass to about 40 lbs, but on wire. That is not my kind of fishing. Charter boat license to fish NY is $250, he will never make it back.

I still see visions of the big fish in the reefs between Napatree and Fisher's Island! Does your son fish Sugar reef and the rips around the mast, etc?
That area is incredible for flyfishing, you're lucky to live so close to it.
|Steve, and Juro I have a couple of spots for bonita, and false albacore, but the problem is that this year they appear to be late. I expected them a week ago, but they didn't show. When I get something definite I will post. I don't have a yak anymore, but I think I found something better. Next week I hope to get started scouting around. Maybe I can talk my son into taking me along the coast from Napatree to Charlestown so I can see where they are hiding.
|What a board!!! My post had only been out 10 minutes, and I've already got a good start!!! Thanks, guys. I did my tuna fishing shorebound from Menemsha and Stage last summer...got it out of my "bones" by mid-September in time to get the bird dog ready for his season. This year, I've got the 'yak, and really want to focus on the buggers.
I have a pretty good list of such spots. I'll send you an email a little later on.
I was gonna hold off on the tunoid chase but damn, now I am getting antsy.
Some are common spots:
Rhody would be most likely at this point, or should I say closest to shore w/o powerboat. We could hook up with ArtB in Westerly.
Westport east of the river mouth gets an early showing, but not a great yak spot.
Woods Hole up inside near the docks might be getting some fish busting by now, Josko would know.
Passing much powerboat water up to Wacky and South Cape Beach where more shoreline opportunities "pop-up".
Then eastward through the "talk offline" zones and then into the "much ignored zone" where I have caught most of my shoreline bonito - Parkers, Bass, Herring and Red River mouths down to Stage Harbor on the ebb. They don't usually get down that far until mid-August but with the exception of a few slamming and dancing captains there is no one taking advantage of the bounty of tunoids strafing the area. Once they get to Bass River we should pounce on the opportunity.
Of course they even go further, one year they entered Pleasant Bay in huge numbers and strafed from Ryder Cove all the way down to the inlet for days on end. NO ONE FISHING FOR THEM!
Last year I hooked and lost an albie standing in Pleasant Bay and the spin guy next to me landed his on a d-dick. I had the wrong fly on - they like it but it doesn't hold on to them.
I caught my first fly/shore bonito at the mouth of Herring River from the jetty. They were all over the place and no one could figure out what they were. They were strafing a half mile circle over and over and over again driving silversides like herds. We all just kept fishing away from them thinking they were bluefish on steroids. Suddenly they made a deep surge into the mouth of the river and I hooked one up around 6 lbs. Kicked my butt! This was years before they were 'in vogue'. I thought it was a fat mackeral, and no one else could ID the fish.
How things change!
|Steve... I will be with you later this month for yaking for them if you want... I am still after striper this weekend... but I have another week starting August 11 and would plan for that time.
Yakking for Bones
Now that they are showing up, let's get on them. Anyone want to hook up this weekend? I'm still working out some scheduling issues (haven't talked to the wife) but should be free either Friday or Saturday. What are some good spots to drop into the brine with a kayak for these critters?

You know what really sucks? When the people involved in some of your favorite TV shows get together to make a new series and it ends up not being so great. That's unfortunately what happened last night when I watched the premiere of NBC's new comedy Marry Me. More

Besides, the NHL can hardly afford to lose so many loyal fans by them locking out. The NHL is far behind the other 3 big sports in fan base and this strike/lockout can only damage there reputation as the last not-as-high paying sport.

Up, up, and OKAAAAY!!!
I couldn't agree more, but my opinion still stands that the NHL expanded too quickly. It's not where they went as much as it was the principle. If you can't afford the kids you have, don't have any more.Originally Posted by tjovonovich
It's a blacked-out blur but I'm pretty sure it ruled.
I think one of the NHL's biggest problems was the 1990's. Hockey saw a big explosion in popularity in mid to late 90's, which lead to the unnecessary expansion and caused salaries and ticket prices to go up. When the bottom fell out and many of the newer fans went away, revenues went down, but the players kept the same salaries, leaving the teams and the league in financial trouble. The players need to be realistic. The NHL is no way close any of the other big leagues, but they seem to be dillusional and think they are worth $8 million a year contracts.
I'm on the NHL's side of this issue. If the players really wanted to play hockey, this thing would be settled and they'd have been on the ice months ago. They seem to be happy to be playing for relative peanuts in the minors and overseas, so why not agree to a cap?
Not sure how legal it would be, but I say the NHL should ignore the NHLPA and start fresh. Install a salary cap and hold open tryouts.

Mummy of the raincoat is a gigantic trollop.
Ah the NHL, where does one start with this mess, I guess the NHL itself & the owners. Like others have said, they expanded way too fast & caused a riff on its semi sailing wave of success. The owners on the other hand have pardon the pun screwed the pooch on just about every level. They created these large salaries all on their own. Are the players greedy, no not entirely, but they are not stupid either. If owner B wants to pay you 5 million over the next two years & owner C wants to pay you 8 million over the next two years, who are you going to sign with. It's a no brainer unless you really love the team & organization that owner B has to offer. Nine times out of ten the player will choose team C because of the extra money. Are they greedy, no just doing what everyone else in sports does, taking a larger piece of the pie. Do they make too much money? Yes, but they are underpaid compared to the other leagues out there (Basketball & Baseball).
The way I look at it, if Im paying someone 180 million over the course of ten years they better learn how to fly because thats what Ill expect for my money. Sports is a crazy business & Im not buying the NHLs whines this time around, they screwed up, they should fix it, not the players. The players tried many times to get something reasonable going on the table & all the NHL could say was CAP or take a hike. The final salary cap the league offered was around 42.5 million & the players wanted 49 million a difference of 6.5 million. This means that teams can only spend 42.5 million, therefore reducing the salaries of superstars & the average player. If youre a player whos worked hard & earned a good salary you dont want that to happen, if youre a future player you definitely dont want that to happen. Bottom line the NHL should have took the 49 million offer along with profit sharing but this is an ego thing & it wont be resolved anytime soon I believe. They had a whole summer to rectify this & look what happened when both sides met or how few they did. You can bet the rest of the leagues are watching closely on this one to see how it pans out for the future of the game. IMHO its hurt the game for good in a lot of major cities.
It's probably a bunch of nonsense, but Yahoo! says that the season could still be saved.
Read the rest at the link.[font=arial] There might be an NHL season, after all. The NHL and the players' association will meet in New York on Saturday after the league requested the sides get together again. [/font] [font=arial] On Wednesday, commissioner Gary Bettman canceled the season, saying it was too late to play any semblance of a schedule. That made the NHL the first major North American sports league to lose a full season to a labor dispute. [/font]
[font=arial]Or did it? [/font]
[font=arial] "I think the timing has always been to get an agreement so that we can play," said New Jersey Devils president Lou Lamoriello, who has taken part in previous negotiations. "Right now, it's still get an agreement, and then if we get an agreement, then can we play? [/font]
[font=arial] "I think it's a little different than it was before." [/font]
[font=arial] In a statement released Friday night, the players' association said the NHL made the offer late Thursday night to get together. There was no immediate word on who would take part in the meeting. [/font]
[font=arial]"The way everything has transpired, nothing surprises me," said Lamoriello, who declined to say whether he would be in attendance. [/font]
[font=arial] NHL chief legal officer Bill Daly was involved in a closed-door meeting Friday evening and declined to comment. [/font]
There hadn't been any official contact between the NHL and the players' association since Tuesday night when the sides traded what they said were final offers. [/font]
[font=arial]All proposals were rejected, and Bettman went ahead and canceled the season Wednesday at a news conference that was scheduled two days earlier. [/font]
[font=arial]"I don't think anything was premature. It was a necessity," Lamoriello said. "It didn't appear to be going anywhere and there was too much jockeying going on. [/font]
[font=arial] "Right now, there's a chance of people getting down to possibly getting this done." [/font]
[font=arial] Bettman said in a letter to NHLPA executive director Bob Goodenow on Tuesday that the league's salary-cap proposal of $42.5 million was as far as he could go and that there was no time or flexibility for negotiation. [/font]
[font=arial] Goodenow sent a letter back, proposing a soft cap at $49 million that could be exceeded by as much as 10 percent by teams twice during the course of the six-year deal. [/font]
[font=arial] It appeared there was momentum toward reaching a deal and that the season had a chance to be saved, since the sides were only $6.5 million apart on their cap numbers. But talking ceased after each side sent two letters to the other on Tuesday night. [/font]
[font=arial] There were big breakthroughs Monday in Niagara Falls, N.Y., when the NHL agreed to drop its demand that player costs be linked to league revenues, and the union, in turn, came off its steadfast opposition to a salary cap. [/font]
[font=arial] "We got through the philosophical end of it, so there's a better chance, but I think there is still a lot of work that has to be done and it still takes some ti[/font]

I think this season is shot. BUt what they need to do is get a CBA for next season so this crud doesnt happen again. ANd with the NBA CBA up at the end of the season, I hope they are taking notes on what not to do.
Edit. ESPN is reporting an agreement in principle right now....

then there's this
I hate to admit it, but I'm still hopeful, the Leafs could easily win the False Cup and I have to admit, I wouldn't care how thought what about it......
And at this new meeting Lemieux and the big G will be at the table..... I think the earnest face of the Greatest one will shine once more
(PS I know, I know, poor dumb Leafs fan but I'm still convinced that this is our year )
Something about him reminds me of my older brother, Rex.
Now I realise why I watch college football
I have to agree,non-hockey crazy cities,especially here in the South are useless.No one goes because hockey isnt the preffered sport around here.Perhaps they need to close some teams and "re-group" during the strike.
Treat your stepmother with respect Pantera, or you'll be sleeping in the streets!!
Until the puck actually drops, I believe none of it. I don't understand how the agreed salary cap got so low. And as far as competition goes this year, we could all be screwed (you included, mab!!). It's gonna be such a patheticly short season that all it's gonna take is a hot streak for someone like the Blackhawks or Coyotes to win the False Cup. And on the other hand, it's gonna take a small cold streak for teams like the Red Wings and *GASP* Leafs to miss the playoffs altogether.
It's a blacked-out blur but I'm pretty sure it ruled.
I don't like how they're going to do a shortened season if it gets going. It could be possible for the bottom of the barrel team to win the cup. It'd be like baseball going on strike then having a short season and the Tigers winning it all.
Up, up, and OKAAAAY!!!

Family: Fagaceae, Beech view all from this family
Description Quercus palustris, also called Swamp Spanish oak, is a member of red oak section (Quercus sect. Lobatae). It is native to North America, mainly in the eastern United States from Connecticut west to eastern Kansas, and south to Georgia but not Florida, across to eastern Oklahoma; it is also native in the extreme south of Ontario, Canada.
It is a medium-sized deciduous tree growing to 100+ ft tall, with a trunk up to 1 m (3 ft) diameter. It has an 8-14 m (25-45 ft) spread. A 10-year-old tree will be about 8 m (25 ft) tall. The crown is broad conic when young, with numerous small branches radiating out from a central leader. When older, some upper branches become quite large and the central leader is lost, while the lower branches gradually droop downwards.
The leaves are 5-16 cm long and 5-12 cm broad, lobed, with five or seven lobes. Each lobe has 5-7 bristle-tipped teeth. The sinuses are typically u-shaped and extremely deep cut. In fact, there is approximately the same amount of sinus area as actual leaf area. The leaf is mostly hairless, except for a very characteristic tuft of pale orange-brown down on the lower surface where each lobe vein joins the central vein. Overall autumn leaf coloration is generally bronze, though individual leaves may be red for a time. The acorns, borne in a shallow, thin cap, are hemispherical, 10-16 mm long and 9-15 mm broad, green maturing pale brown about 18 months after pollination. The acorn is unpalatable because the kernel is very bitter.
The species usually lives only 90 to 120 years. It is naturally a wetland tree, and develops a shallow, fibrous root system, unlike many oaks, which have a strong, deep taproot when young. It is confined to acidic soils, and does not tolerate limestone or sandy Florida soil, and grows at low altitudes from sea level up to 350 m. The specific name palustris means "of swamps".
A characteristic shared by a few other oak species, and also some beeches and hornbeams, is the retention of leaves through the winter on juvenile tissue. Young trees under 6 m (20 ft) will often be covered with leaves year-round, though the leaves die in the fall, remaining attached to the shoots until the new leaves appear in the spring. As with many other oak species, dead pin oak branches will stay on the tree for many years.
The acorns are small with a thin, shallow cap.
The pin oak is in the red oak subgenus: pointed lobes.
The sinuses are very deeply cut and u-shaped.
The amount of sinus area is approximately equivalent to the amount of actual leaf area.
The upper branches point upwards, the middle branches are perpendicular to trunk, and the lower branches angle down.
Pin oak grows primarily on level or nearly level, poorly drained alluvial floodplain and river bottom soils with high clay content. Pin oak is usually found on sites that flood intermittently during the dormant season but do not ordinarily flood during the growing season. It does not grow on the lowest, most poorly drained sites that may be covered with standing water through much of the growing season. However, it does grow extensively on poorly drained upland "pin oak flats" on the glacial till plains of southwestern Ohio, southern Illinois and Indiana, and northern Missouri. The level topography and presence of a claypan in the soil of these areas cause these sites to be excessively wet in winter and spring.
Habitat Scrub, shrub & brushlands, Watersides (fresh).
Range New England, Mid-Atlantic, Great Lakes, Plains, Southeast.
Comments One of the faster growing oaks. Tolerates wet feet. Intolerant of alkaline soils. Susceptible to iron chlorosis which causes yellow coloration in the leaves through the summer months and can eventually kill the tree. Somewhat tolerant of city conditions.
Exposure Preference Sun.
Native Distribution Georgia to Oklahoma, n. to Massachusetts, s. Ontario, s. Michigan, Illinois, Iowa & e. Kansas
Site Preference Wet woods; bottomlands
Soil Preference Heavy, poorly drained soils. pH 5.5-6.5.
Wildlife Value Attracts songbirds, water birds, ground birds and mammals.

|Ocean Flyfishing for Salmon Perhaps the most under-rated fishery in the world
|Topic Review (Newest First)
tube flies for salty kings
in homer, alaska we have been trolling tube flies for kings and find they fish as well and many times better than herring plugs.we have done some limited "flyfishing" but wasnt able to get the line down quick enough.i like matts idea and may have to give it a try.
Mike and I are looking for another "Hog" next weekend!!! (Maybe I will be the fortunate one this time! See you on the 25th!
northfork is right that the depths required are not that difficult (with the right weather).
also, don't forget that trollers cover tons of water and flashers attract fish from a distance.... so depths and places trollers kill fish do not always translate to flies (take popular coho spots the trollers like... often they are terrible fly spots).
also, don't ignore the places that hold the most fish. while the shorelines offer some structure and small boats can reach them... in washington state they do not hold the large numbers of fish. just like coho, offshore is where you are going to find the largest number of kings actively feeding at all levels (and time of day is less critical).
tied with lots of bucktail surrounding them, long feather tails shouldn't foul (not a problem on half and halfs for me).
i'm not sure that kings can ever be figured out like coho, but they offer a real challenge, especially considering that not only do you have to find kings within reach but the ocean weather has to cooperate (hard to dredge with a 15-30 knot wind). a client last summer got a hog to hand while fishing coho with one of those half and half's.
good luck this summer... i'm looking forward to the upcoming coho fishing. the coho are much bigger this summer (no pinks....yeah).
No need for any super fancy spliced this and spliced that. Grab a Rio Deep 7 Hypersink (the standard Deep 7 is great for coho) and you can throw it on a rod as small as a 8 and have it at it.
If you can set up your drift, make the properly angled cast, throw in some pseudo-stack mends, you can get to 30' without an issue.
btw-A late summer/early Fall without a visit from you and trip to Sekiu just isn't the same. Get your ass out here, clave or no clave.
Quest for a King
Hey Juro,
Remember Roy? He's been experimenting with fishing for Kings out of Neah Bay with flies and is even interested trying for them with poppers.
I know that the Kings do come into the top 30' of water often, esp around dawn and dusk.
In fact, a 58lb fish was taken this past weekend off Waadah Island on a herring/downrigger combo. The downrigger was set between 30 and 35'.
|North Island
In no particular order,
Mattzoid, Give it a try and let us know. It sounds good.
Prouse, I have found flies with long feather wings to foul on either side of the hook and spin on the line. Anyone else?
Juro, very interested. I know it's alot further to travel but my uncle has a marine campsite near Port Hardy which could be very affordable. " Dudley's Cove "
We've been working on an idea where he can taxi 4 or 5 pontoon boats around from hole to hole and each can fish from their pontoon boat. Just a thought
Cheers N I
think tuna
Down in Baja 30 to 45 feet is pretty standard for me for yellowfin. Cast upcurrent with a depthcharge/teeny/deepsea line, feed line and let the line come under the boat. Fly selection is important too. Surf Candies or other epoxy flies with tungsten cones are my go to for the super deep. After all the work to get down there, don't rush bringing it back...
Enigma Clave
I am serious folks, how about a Neah Bay or Sekiu conclave whereby we visit annually to join forces to solve the riddle of consistent kings on the fly in the saltchuck!
Pooling expenses in gas, lodging, food, kicker boat rentals, etc.
Increased safety on the water - buddy system.
Great Saturday dinner event potentials, eat like kings (pun intended) for $10 each
Good friends and fun in the fresh air
Most importantly... share each others findings about this enigmatic fishery
This is not like a steelhead river with finite room on the shore and a limited potential, this is the open sea and things are in a state of change from minute to minute. Finding threads of consistency is a challenge but the rewards are huge.
Many of our forum claves have become annual events and the knowledge accumulates. I see this as the perfect situation for an annual clave because no matter how much we talk about it on line it will not change the fishery or the crowding, etc. At most it would change the ratio of trollers and moochers to fly guys out there.
It's also a seasonal outing, with some application to blackmouth but our clave would target the peak of the mature kings into their pre-spawn locations in summer and early fall.
We can always fall back on coho... no resist the temptation... fight it...
What are people's opinions? Should I book tickets now?
Oh my lord, now you guys really got me to thinking about this. There are two things I really want to do. One, catch a Chinook with a fly and two, meet that old guy that can dance on the six flag commercials. Just kidding about the old dude.
I know you guys are going to call the Catholic church to have Satin exorcised from me for thinking this, but what if you used the new hollow gel spun spliced to T-14. That would be 80lb test you could cast a country mile with a two handed rod. In 25 seconds you would be at 30 feet. Then put one of those lead assed flies on. At least with the GsP you have no stretch so even at 30 plus feet, you would feel the take. I think that would be the best running line and you could forget about casting from shore, you could never retrieve it fast enough. You would have to have a boat.
Here is a link to the article on the Lead-Ass Mac for any that are interested:
Seems I might have to pick that issue up and read up on the "lead-ass" bati patterns. Sounds very interesting!!!
Very interesting thread!
Just eating up all this talk of experimenting to go deep for Chinook, as I can now rest assured that their are others of you with the same obsession!
I also fished this weekend out of my kayak off the point to the west of Fox Island Bridge. Landed 3 small (largest was 18") blackmouth drifiting a angel hair baitfish pattern in the current very similar to a wet swing in a river. I noticed that the take was 50/50 - half of them coming at the end of the drift, and the other half coming during the drift itself.
I too noticed that there was bait all over Hale Passage, and am hopeful for abundant returns! I have been debating which type of running line to mate up to T-14 heads to fish deeper for Chinook, and would welcome any input on the subject. Have any of you tried this with "lead-ass" baitfish patterns? There was an intersting article about this syle in the past issue of Saltwater Fly Fishing. I am tying some these up to take out to Seiku... hoping for success.
|North Island
I should have said " limited success"
As far as getting the fly down what we have done is cast the fly out. Then run the boat 50-100 feet away while feeding slack into the line. The goal is to just add more line into the cast and not troll the fly. After the fly is out wait a few minutes allowing the fly to get the desired depth and then begin the retrieve.
There are also bucktail trolling techniques but I don't think that really applies here.
Has anyone tried the new faster sink lines yet?
Cheers N I
|I have put some thought into this because Coho seem to be good for off the beach with only a few reports of Chinook. The only way I figured a fly rod could get down 30 to 60 feet, one would have to troll (I know that is a bad word) say an 1100 grain Big Boy, or 30 feet of T-14 on #35 slickshooter, really slow. If a fly had too much of wobble, you would need a swivel in the leader. I think a large squid imitation of 6 to 8 inches where the tentacles really wiggled around would be better than a fly that twisted your line up. I'm just guessing here. I don't really know and wonder if Les Johnson has tried this. I saw Tres Combs at the sportsman show a year ago and he was really into fly fishing for Salmon off Vancouver Island. He might have an idea too.
|Leland Miyawaki
Yes, I've fished Purdy. It's one of my favorite winter searun spots. I vary my retrieves from very slow to very fast as well as herky-jerky and smooth and steady until I find what works for the day. The tidal movement putting a belly in the dryline is also a determining factor in the speed of my strip. A fast moving tide only needs a couple twitches every so often with the line hand.
See you at Purdy sometime,

Friends event to honor Fagles, March 4

Map shows campus voting districts, polling stations for June 4 primary
Posted May 22, 2013; 04:35 p.m.
Residents of the Princeton University campus can find the location of their voting districts and polling stations for the primary Election Day through an online map. Polls will be open from 6 a.m. to 8 p.m., Tuesday, June 4.
The primary election will be for state and local elected officials.
Because of the recent consolidation of Princeton Borough and Princeton Township, voting districts changed last year. The majority of the University campus is in District No. 7 and will vote at the Icahn Laboratory. Those residing in the eating clubs will now vote in District No. 8 at the Computer Science Building.
Made available by the Office of Community and Regional Affairs and the Office of the Dean of Undergraduate Students, the online map shows the voting districts, as well as the location of the polling stations in each. The map also notes the off-campus locations where graduate students residing in Stanworth and Butler Apartments may vote.
All students should bring their Princeton University ID card for identification.
Additional voting information for Mercer County residents is available on the New Jersey Department of State website.

CES 2013: Sony Goes Diving with 5", 1080p Xperia Z "Superphone"

Xperia Z is waterproof up to 3 feet
When it comes to innovation in the mobile electronics space, Sony was once at the head of the class. Now, however, not many people think of Sony as an innovator or a maker of must-have mobile products. That honor usually is bestowed on wares from Apple and Samsung.
However, Sony is looking to get back some of its mojo back and proudly displayed its latest Xperia "superphones" at CES. The
Xperia Z and Xperia ZL
both use a Qualcomm Snapdragon S4 Pro quad-core processor running at 1.5GHz, 2GB of RAM, 16GB of internal storage (plus a microSD slot), 5" 1080p display (443 ppi), a 13MP camera with HDR video capabilities (thanks to its Exmor RS image sensor), and a front-facing 2MP camera for video conferencing.
Xperia Z
The Xperia Z takes things a step further by being waterproof at depths up to three feet for up to 30 minutes (it meets IP55 and IP57 military specifications). It features an all-glass construction that brings back "shattering" flashbacks to the iPhone 4/4S.
The Xperia ZL has a smaller footprint (LxW) than the Xperia Z, but is 0.08 inches thicker and forgoes the all-glass construction for a matte plastic finish. The Xperia ZL also includes a physical shutter button that the Xperia Z had to ditch to maintain its waterproof capabilities, and an IR blaster so that you can use the phone as a universal remote.
Although the Xperia Z is supposed to launch during Q1 2013, we don't have any information on pricing. Likewise, the Xperia ZL will have a more limited rollout and we don't know if it will even make it to the United States.

Conceived as a playground for refugee children in Thailand, van Splunter's 'Rubber Tree' envisions a play area constructed entirely of reused and sustainable materials. The recycled tires that give form to the tree are held in place by conjoined lengths of bamboo that thread throughout the structure without need for metal hardware. What's more, van Splunter sees the tires as being used "from cradle to cradle". "Tires are made from the latex of the rubber tree," says van Splunter in her artist statement. "And now they have served their duty, becoming the sculpture of a rubber tree."

3 Responses to "AnneMarie van Splunter Reuses Tires to Create a 'Rubber Tree' Playground"
Out of those 220 million tires that were excessed just this year in just this one country, how many were beneficially used in making these sculptures?
I love the sculptures and the ideas of how to make them. They look wonderful. But the story should not be sold as any kind of way to reuse tires. It is not.
At Zero Waste Institute we try to find ways to reuse all of all unwanted products. It is possible. We may have something to say about the rest of the 199 million tires that have no reuse modality at present.

slapindex - SLAPD index to LDIF utility
/usr/sbin/slapindex [-v] [-c] [-d level] [-b suffix] [-n dbnum] [-f slapd.conf]
Slapindex is used to regenerate slapd(8) indices based upon the current contents of a database. It opens the given database determined by the database number or suffix and updates the indices for all values of all attributes of all entries.
-v enable verbose mode. -c enable continue (ignore errors) mode. -d level enable debugging messages as defined by the specified level. -b suffix Use the specified suffix to determine which database to generate output for. The -b cannot be used in conjunction with the -n option. -n dbnum Generate output for the dbnum-th database listed in the configu- ration file. The -n cannot be used in conjunction with the -b option. -f slapd.conf specify an alternative slapd.conf(5) file.
Your slapd(8) should not be running (at least, not in read-write mode) when you do this to ensure consistency of the database. This command provides ample opportunity for the user to obtain and drink their favorite beverage.
To reindex your SLAPD database, give the command: /usr/sbin/slapindex

Will Hasbro ever package figures like Dr. Evazan seperately? I don't mind things like the Jabba's Dancers or Skiff Guard packs, which have all new figures, but just one figure isn't enough to convince me to buy it.
Printable View
Will Hasbro ever package figures like Dr. Evazan seperately? I don't mind things like the Jabba's Dancers or Skiff Guard packs, which have all new figures, but just one figure isn't enough to convince me to buy it.
I like the idea of the cinema scenes I thought they were cool and interetsing but I agree the characters need to be re-scuplted and repackaged. Dr. Evazan was interesting in the pose but I would like to see a version of him just standing at the bar with Ponda about to start some action with luke.
3 packs were great when you got 3 new figures in 1 box, but when they stared making jar jar wiht sebulba and another anakin and stuff like that it got lame. We already had lots of those figures. We want new stuff not rehashed garbage with a 1 pose limit. good examples would be, Skiff guards, Cantina Aliens, Jedi spirits, Rebel Pilots(army builder), and even wattos box minus watto, should ahad the midget or something.
The cinema scenes were a great way to get figures that collectors wanted, without creating a lot of pegwarmers. Could you imagine jedi spirit yoda on a card? Apparently, Hasbro couldn't make enough money with them though, and I believe a spokesman had stated last year that they had no plans to make them again.
And the cinema scenes weren't pegwarmers? Packaging one new character with two we already have meant they just sat on shelves. I certainly wasn't going to pay three times the price just to get one character I actually wanted. carded figures would sell much better than cinema scenes. Odd characters like Beru sold really well and I'd hardly call her a major character. Graxol Kelvyyn would sell because he's an alien and he's different. If the carded a version of him without the extendobody and made him without the extra height and with legs instead of the salt shaker body. I'd certainly buy a couple of him for my senate set up. He was just way too big and he packed with crap figures. Spirit of yoda wouldn't sell no but then who wants a spirit of yoda with no articulation? Spirit of Anakin with no articulation. Spirit of ben that looks like he's playng on his playstation but without articulation. Those are crap figures. Evazan would sell if they resculpted him without the silly wide leg stance and got his ugly mush right instead of basing it on the damn comics version. Alfie Curtis would surely give his permission if they were going to do it right. Is this one more legal thing like the Tonnika sisters issue? :rolleyes: Even a new Dr. Evazan with a better face if it couldn't be the real face would be a vast improvement. They didn't even get the costume right.
About the pegwarmers issue:
When I got the Spirits and Cantina boxes, there were about 5 left. When I returned to the same store, there were 5 left.
At one Kay-Bee, they've had the same 5 Princess Leia in Ewok Celebration Gown for 3½ years. It's been marked down to $1.97 since 2000, yet hasn't sold one figure.
I know a store that bought tons of cinema scenes on reduction because the larger stores cleared out. This one store is a comics and collectibles store and is snowed under with cinema scenes. The stockroom is piled high. They just don't sell because the figure selections are bad. and the sculpts are bad on at least two of the figures or the figures are ones we already had several times over. Sale of the droids should have had a better Uncle Owen for a start and instead of Luke there should have been a droid we didn't already have like CZ-1 the white goofy faced protocol droid or RA-7 the silver death star droid. maybe a treadwell droid. But something new not old rope. Threepio represented the core character was there a need to pack Luke in too? No.
If Cinema scenes are to be revived in any shape then they have to be made up of characters we don't have and not in scene specific poses so they can be used elsewhere by openers and diorama builders as well as looking good in the packages for boxed collectors. They don't need to be super posed to look good. They just need equal quality all round. The same attention to detail that goes into carded figures. No skimping and no cheap tricks. New characters and interesting characters. More cantina aliens packs. Jabba's palace packs. Rebels packs Imperial packs. That's what will sell not stupid items like Mos Espa encounter. There was one half decent figure in the Mos Espa pack and we got a new version of him later on anyway. So there was nothing really interesting there. No wonder it still pegwarms. I think I've made my point now. :)
I don't mind some important scenes like Final Duel in Episode 1 being done, but nobody wants to buy the Mos Espa pack. Who really needs Jar Jar and Anakin in slightly different poses, and Sebulba wasn't available as a single figure then, but if we wanted that one, we could buy the Sebulba pod racer. I liked it when they had three new figures, but when you're only getting it for one, I don't like it.
I agree!!! I want a new and accurate Dr. Evazan dammit! Remove Ponda from the new cantina set and chuck in this psycho of a doctor Hasbro! You know you want to!
Some of the cinema scenes were ridiculously hard to find in Canada.
The one ones I ever saw warming the pegs were the ep I sebulba conflict and desert fight.
None of the rest stayed on the shelves.
I'm still looking for a watto's box at a decent price.

Varilight 4 Gang, V-Pro Series Eclique2 Tactile Touch Button Multi-Way Dimming Slave (use in Conjunction with V-Pro Series Eclique2 Tactile Touch and Remote Master Dimmers only, for 2 Way and Multi-Way Circuits). The Dimmer has a Polished Chrome Tactile touch button. Appearance and Function The slave dimmer resembles a normal rocker switch. To dim your lights, press and hold the lower part of the dimmer button and to brighten, press and hold the top of the button. A quick touch will turn the lights on or off. There are also various scene settings that can be changed to suit your environment. A double touch on the lower part of the dimmer button for example, will set the dimmer into scene setting 4 (mid-low brightness), or a double touch to the top half of the button will set the dimmer to full brightness. Please see the product instructions for further info. Dimming Slaves are used together with V-Pro Series Eclique2 Touch and Remote Master Dimmers. Applications This Slave dimmer, alongside its Master, can be used in many applications, from Home to commercial premises such as offices, bars, nightclubs, retirement and nursing homes. The V Pro Eclique 2 Series LED dimmers are also available as Power Grid Modules, this gives versatility to the range so you are able to mix and match Master and Slave dimmers, along with a large variety of other Power Grid switches together on the same plate. Software The V-Pro Series Eclique2 software, is contained in the Master dimmer, the Slave sends a signal via a link wire to the Master allowing dimming functionality. 2 Way and Multi Way Dimming It is possible to use multiple dimmer switches in a single circuit when using the Eclique2 range, this is one massive advantage over conventional dimmers. In this instance, the main switch where the live feed is present must be a master dimmer. The second switch, or 3rd switch (intermediate) must then be a slave dimmer. It is not possible to use a slave dimmer switch as a standalone dimmer in a 1 way circuit. Similarly, normal on/off rocker or impulse switches cannot be used in conjunction with Eclique2 touch remote dimmers either. For 2-way circuits: 1 Touch and Remote Master Dimmer and 1 Slave dimmer. For 3 way circuits: 1 Touch and Remote Master Dimmer and 2 Slave dimmers. For multi-way circuits: 1 Touch and Remote Master Dimmer and as many Slave dimmers as is needed.

Iran: UN Humanitarian Chief hails strengthened partnership with Islamic Republic
United Nations Humanitarian Chief Valerie Amos wrapped up a three-day visit to Iran on Sunday (15 September) by welcoming the opportunity to work more closely with the Islamic Republic in regional and international humanitarian affairs.
Speaking at a press conference in the capital Tehran, Ms. Amos praised Iran's disaster management capacity.
"Iran has a well-developed system for disaster preparedness and response and often shares their capacity and expertise when responding to emergencies in other countries," she said. "I am delighted to have signed a joint statement with the Government to strengthen our partnership to improve regional cooperation on humanitarian assistance."
During her visit USG Amos met with Foreign Minister Mohammad Zarif, The President of the National Disaster management organization and deputy Interior Minister, Hassan Ghaddami, and the President of the Iranian Red Crescent Society, Mohammad Farhadi, as well as other senior officials and representatives from NGOs and the diplomatic and humanitarian community.
Ms. Amos said that Iran's engagement is essential as the international community faces larger and more complex crises in the region and elsewhere in the world.
"Effective partnership is crucial if UN agencies and other organizations are going to rise to the challenge of meeting the needs of an increasing number of people affected by emergencies around the world," she said. "Iran has much to contribute to the debate on the future of the humanitarian system."
A region in crisis
USG Amos also thanked the people and the Government of Iran for their generosity and solidarity in hosting hundreds of thousands of refugees. There are more than 850,000 refugees from Iraq and Afghanistan living in Iran, according to the UN Refugee Agency.
Many Afghan refugees have been in Iran for decades and Ms. Amos called on the international community to continue supporting Iran and Afghanistan's efforts to provide long-term solutions for them.
Ms. Amos also took the opportunity to brief officials on her most recent visit to Damascus, and to discuss the destabilizing impact of the conflict in Syria across the broader Middle East, with millions of people displaced inside the country and across borders.
"As others continue to pursue a political solution to the conflict in Syria, I can only stress the massive human cost," said USG Amos. "I briefed the Foreign Minister and others on my recent visit to Damascus and asked for their help in strengthening our humanitarian response, especially on obtaining better access for aid operations."
