Week one?
Yes week one.
I have been cleared to run!!! The thing is it's not like I remember. It's hard.
This time around, with the help of ThatKraigGuy I am going about it with heart training. Heart rate training worked so well for him I wanted to give it a shot. That and I hope it helps me not do to much to soon, and end up reinjuring myself.
Anyways back to how hard running is. Keeping my HR below 150 is a lot of walking. In fact the first few runs were all walking. Probably shouldn't call them runs??? Things are starting to move forward though. Thursday I was able to jog err run for 30min with HR avg of 146 with out walking at all!.
At that point I had high hopes of a four mile long run on Saturday.
Billy, I thought you were marathon training? Four miles? Long run?
So what everyone has to start over somewhere.
I called it before mile four. My heart rate wasn't in it, and I was tired of walking. Not going to lie it put me in a bad mood for the rest of the day.
This morning's run turned things around. Same distance a little faster, not much, but the HR was under control.
Almost 4 miles on a Monday! Rebel over here. Marathon training? As in 26.2? 4? I talk to myself sometimes.
This is the point where I trail off and lose interest in sitting, typing, thinking, exposing my crazy on the world. That and I kind of want to hashtag everything that comes out of my mouth.
I did get to have beers with these two peeps and our significant others!

The New Orleans Saints will look to extend their six game winning streak to seven when they visit the visit the Baltimore Ravens on Sunday night in the M&T Bank Stadium. There is a lot of momentum going into this match-up, and with so little games left in the regular season, every meeting counts. Both these teams are coming off weak streaks in a way, with the Saints coming around on offense and the Ravens recovering from an embarrassing defensive performance. Odds.
To make matter more interesting, these teams are just one game behind the leaders of their respective divisions. All this being taken into consideration, this is sure to one enticing game. Be sure to tune into FOX Regional at 1:00 PM ET to watch what happens.
The Saints are becoming the Super Bowl winning team they proved to be last year. Scoring at least 30 points in their last six games, New Orleans is trying for the longest and strongest winning streak in franchise history. Also exciting, the QB Drew Brees needs only 145 more yards for its fifth consecutive 4,000 yard season. This stunning player threw for 221 yards and three TDs in the last game against the St. Louis Rams on Sunday and has been key in getting his team as far as it is. Offensively the team is improving, managing 30.5 points and averaging 402.5 yards in their current six game winning streak. Scores.
Those numbers are significantly better than the 21.0 points and 371.9 they were sporting before. With talented and determined players such as Brees, Pierre Thomas and Reggie Bush, this team has high hopes for Sunday. Perhaps they will be able to move up to 11-3 and tie the Atlanta Falcons for first in the NFC South. Vegas odds.
The Ravens are 10th in the NFL for overall yards allowed, which although not the best is certainly not bad. Having won three of its last four, Baltimore is one game behind the Pittsburgh Steelers at 9-4 in the AFC North. While the team was lucky enough to bring an end to a long and dreadful display of defense, they have simply been inconsistent this season. They continue to give up fourth and third-quarter leads, losing games in the process. Still, they remain optimistic. Follow it all at www.scoresandodds.com.

Citation: N/A Interpretive Summary: Metal ion deficiencies in avocado cause severe losses in productivity and cultivation efficiency. Such deficiencies in avocado have traditionally been difficult to correct by conventional application methods. In this study, a rapid and reliable means of testing for iron deficiency in avocado trees is reported. This will aid growers and extension agents to: 1) rapidly identify iron deficiency in avocado trees, and 2) monitor the efficiency of new methods of iron applications. The changes that are reported in iron deficient avocado will add to the understanding the deliterious effects of inadequate iron in plant tissue.
Technical Abstract: Physiological responses to Fe-deficiency were characterized in the roots and leaves of avocado plants. These responses included sharply higher catecholase activity, but slightly lower peroxidase activity in leaves and roots of avocado seedlings grown in minus-Fe nutrient solutions, and in Fe-deficient leaves of field trees. Fe- deficiency in avocado seedlings resulted in much higher rates of MTT (3-[4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl]-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide) reduction on the root surfaces. Similarly, the initial rates of FeHEDTA reduction were greater for roots of Fe-deficient avocado seedlings. In contrast, root respiration rates were relatively unaffected by Fe-deficiency. Large differences in the Mn and Zn concentrations in the leaves of the Fe-deficient and Fe-sufficient avocado seedlings suggested that the physiological responses that occurred in the roots during Fe-deficiency influenced the uptake of other metal micronutrients.

UMKC names Kansas City student as Honor Recipient
Chosen for outstanding academic and service involvement
KANSAS CITY, Mo. - The University of Missouri-Kansas City (UMKC) Office of the Vice Chancellor for Student Affairs and Enrollment Management has selected five graduating seniors as Fall 2011 Vice Chancellor Honor Award recipients. Among them is Ramanda Hicks of Kansas City, who was commended for both scholarship and participation in programs outside the classroom.
After working several years in the information processing and computer software field, Hicks returned to school and, during that time, was able to attend the Sue Shear Academy as a Fellow. This led to volunteer activities through the Mayor of Kansas City's office with community groups assisting the underserved. Hicks also was able to use her communication skills to shoot documentary videos, co-host a radio show and provide counseling and consulting for homeless or displaced women.
Communication Studies Chair Carol Koehler praised Hicks for her "incredible work ethic. Ramanda has cared for her family, including a new baby, worked, earned exceptional grades and volunteered in the community."
Hicks was previously the vice president of the Black Journalists Association, KKFI advisory council member and a volunteer with Harvesters, Big Brothers Big Sisters and the Disabled Veterans Association.
After completing a master's degree in journalism or creative writing, Hicks would like to work as a television broadcast reporter and producer, bringing to light the stories of underserved communities and establishing a non-profit of her own.
The Vice Chancellor Honor Recipients program was established in 1975 to recognize seniors who excelled in academic achievement, involvement in university programs and service to the campus and surrounding community.
The University of Missouri-Kansas City (UMKC), one of four University of Missouri campuses, is a public university serving more than 15,000 undergraduate, graduate and professional students. UMKC engages with the community and economy based on a four-part mission: life and health sciences; visual and performing arts; urban issues and education; and a vibrant learning and campus life experience. For more information about UMKC, visit www.umkc.edu. You can also find us on Facebook, follow us on Twitter and watch us on YouTube.

There are no years that require no maintenance. Oil/air filters will always be done, unless you drive less than 5000 miles per year. Even then, you should change the oil. You can take a car from zero to 120k without maintenance, but that will probably be the end of the car's useful life. No manufacturer has a "lifetime" oil, and 120k miles without an oil change will kill any engine. If you DIY all the recommended maintenance items (for BMW, per Bentley), your car should never be in the shop.
The test of the machine is the satisfaction it gives you. There isn't any other test. If the machine produces tranquility it's right. If it disturbs you it's wrong until either the machine or your mind is changed.

Diginitaries and hundreds of school children helped celebrate the restored symbol
A crowd of well over 1000 people gathered on 61st Ave. S.W, on Friday June 6 to witness the unveiling of the restored Admiral totem pole, which stood for decades on Admiral Way S.W. It was taken down due to wear and tear in 2006 and then restored for its unveiling at the Log House Museum in a special ceremony.
Brad Chrisman is responsible for the time-lapse video.
In attendance at the event were notable dignitaries and hundreds of school children from Schimitz Park Elementary, Lafayette Elementary and Alki Elementary schools.
Executive Director of the Southwest Seattle Historical Society, Clay Eals was the master of ceremonies for the brief event which included quite literally one minute speeches from King County Executive Dow Constantine and Seattle Mayor Ed Murray. On hand were the board of trustees, Tia Hallberg, Ron Arant, Kerry Korsgaard, Alan Peterson, Dora-Faye Hendricks, Dave Montoure, Peder Nelson, Bonnie Gromlich, Inez Lindsey, and Nancy Sorenson.
Among the other dignitaries on hand were the grandson of, J.E. "Daddy" Standley, the first proprietor of Ye Olde Curiosity Shop who installed the first Admiral Totem pole 75 years ago, Joe James, family members of the people who carved the the pole in 1966, wife and daughter of carver Michael Morgan, Diane Morgan, and Martha Morgan and the sons of carver Robert Fleischman: Kim and Kyle Fleischman.
The first organizers of the pole's 1966 dedication Dick Barnecut and Ken Lowthian.
Superintendent of Seattle Public Schools Jose Banda.
Native American Education Services Manager for SPS Gail Morris.
Principal of Alki Elementary Shannon Stanton, Principal of Schmitz Park Elementary Gerrit Kischner.
Acting Superintendent of Seattle Parks Christopher Williams.
Executive Dir. of 4 Culture Jim Kelly.
Sandy Walsh representing the National Society of the Colonial Dames of America (also of the pioneer Denny family and Bonnie Ward.
King County Councilmember Joe McDermott.
Former Seattle Mayor Greg Nickels.
Duwamish tribal chair Cecile Hansen plus Ken Workman and Blake Shelafore.
Board member (and former resident of the home that houses the museum) Marcy Johnsen.
Workman and Shelafore who trace their family back through their Native American roots to those who lived here in the beginning performed a blessing and song for the pole before it was unveiled.
The event was followed by the opening of a new exhibit at the museum dedicated to totem poles in our area, curated by the SWSHS museum manage Sarah Baylinson.

Why Does My Cat Drink from the Toilet?
As you are getting ready to leave the house, you head for the bathroom to grab some tissues for your pocket. Approaching the door, you hear a little slurping sound and enter to find a furry feline rear end sticking up out of the open toilet bowl.
He is drinking the toilet water. Ew! Does that taste good? Is it healthy for him? Is this the same mouth from which I get little KISSES!!???
Well, yes, probably not, and yes again.
Toilet bowl water is very attractive for most cats. The porcelain of the bowl keeps the water cooler longer than the plastic, metal, or glass water bowls we usually serve this elixir of life in.
Cats love cool water. They may be domesticated, but they were wild outdoor creatures much longer than they've been our indoor family members, and instincts and traits endure. Running streams and deep lakes are typically cool.
Unfortunately there are many microorganisms in a toilet bowl that are not especially healthy for cats. Bacteria are certainly not healthy for us either, and if you are in regular contact with your cat, the transfer to you is simple.
Not to mention, cleansing agents such as bleach or commercial cleaning solutions may be quite toxic to your pet.
So here are several solutions:
Most cats love running water. Try a pet fountain such as the Drinkwell Pet Fountain. The running water is fresh, clean, oxygenated, healthy, and your cat will love it!
Change your kitty's water bowl several times during the day to keep the water fresh.
Place additional water bowls in other areas of the house.
Buy a porcelain bowl to help keep his water fresh.
Occasionally drop some ice cubes in his water bowl to keep the water cool.
Close the lid!
Note from Dr Schelling: My cats love the bathroom. They love to hang out during morning ablutions, drink from the faucet, converse with me when I am using the toilet, and sleep next to the bathtub. And although I don't let them up on the kitchen counter, I do allow my cats on the bathroom counter—I know, some of you probably disagree with this leniency, but it is a great bonding time for us, and I don't keep anything dangerous to them on the counter.
Two of my cats love to drink from the faucet, and since I don't leave it running all day long I left a porcelain cup of water by the side of the sink. They love it! Possibly because it serves several purposes: being in the bathroom, being on the counter, being in a cup—mimicking drinking out of their human's cup, and constantly being fresh since I change and refill the water several times daily.
I am all for getting my cats to drink more water and this is an easy way to do so, plus it is kind of a treat.

Cignetti inducted into Hall of Fame
Frank Cignetti, a former star player at Indiana University of Pennsylvania and later its winningest football coach, was inducted into the College Football Hall of Fame during ceremonies in Atlanta on Wednesday night.
Cignetti, 75, was inducted along with former coaches James "Boots" Donnelly, Jess Dow, Phillip Fulmer, Jimmy Johnson and R.C. Slocum and former players Charles Alexander, Otis Armstrong, Steve Bartkowski, Hal Bedsole, Dave Casper, Ty Detmer, Shelby Jordan, Tommy Kramer, Joe Micchia, Art Monk, Greg Myers, Jonathan Ogden, Gabe Rivera, Art Shell, Mark Simoneau, Scott Thomas, Jeff Wittman and John Wooten.
Cignetti, who is also a member of the IUP and Indiana County sports halls of fame, was an All-America end as a player for IUP in the 1950s. He returned to his alma mater in 1982 as the athletic director, added the title of head football coach in 1986 and led the program — and the school — to the national stage with 182 wins in 20 seasons.
By the time he retired in 2005, Cignetti had become one of the most successful coaches in any division of college football. His teams won 14 Pennsylvania State Athletic Conference West Division titles, advanced to the NCAA playoffs 13 times and twice played on national TV in the NCAA Division II championship game. He ended his career with a mark of 199-77-1, a .718 winning percentage.

Glad to see you reviewing all these streaming services (especially smart widgets) as it's all a bit of a minefield. Hope you cover Sony's movie unlimited and the samsung movie widget too.
I use Sony the most because it has the most up-to-date movies and it's easily available on my blu-ray player. The search is not great though - it wont let you list ALL of it's movies by release date - I usually don't know what I want to watch and want to browse movies from the last few months but cant easily. I'm sure there are films I would watch but they never present themselves.
I would have tried Netflix (on my smart tv) but you had to sign up before you could see what it had to offer (I wasn't tempted). It's a pity we cant browse all the content online somewhere for all the companies.
As for all the license deals which can come and go along with the fact that not all smart tvs/players etc have the access to all the competitors makes it difficult to want to sign up to a subscription.
Better dnla (like samsungs allshare) may make it easier for everyone to simply use their laptop/tablet to push the movie from any provider to their tv. I'm also surprised that the studios haven't created their own versions yet - why do they need a middle man?
Content in the UK version of Netflix is definitely a problem.
I solved that by using a VPN service called "Unblock US" that gives me access to an American DNS server. It costs $4.99 a month (about £3). I only had to specify the IP address of the DNS server on my router and all my networked devices were connected straight away. As a result, I can access the full US catalogue when I use Netflix. It's a huge improvement, and it's definitely worth the extra money since you can also access other US services like Hulu.
I realize this is starting to sound like a marketing pitch for Unblock Us, but I'm honestly just a very satisfied user who's enjoying the "real" Netflix experience.
Netflix is awesome. They did a great job of putting categories and subcategories to their website, however one big issue the loading can be painfully slow.
I totally agree with someone saying that Netflix is one of the greatest apps available on smart TVs. I am using an LG LM760T and I love watching movies on Netflix. I can rent high quality movies anytime and enjoy watching them on my wonderful LG TV.
I use Netflix as my primary TV source.I don't have cable so we watch Netflix a good amount of time. The content may be sparse on new things but the older titles are great.
Generally, I think that the Netflix streaming option is a good value.
But, the movie content for streaming is hopelessly and utterly lame. In no time at all I had gone through the paltry A-list movies that they tout in their p.r. material.
There are many favorite TV sitcoms that are not available, such as Mash, Taxi, The Honeymooners, Newhart, I Love Lucy, etc.
And finally, the consumer interface is painful to use. It is s-l-o-w and unwieldy, and just downright annoying. It seems like every time you watch new show, netflix adds a whole 'nother category, i.e. "Because you watched (insert name of show here)...". There are something like 36 categories that each time that you are looking, for a movie for instance, you have to click down through...and then all the way back up through to get to your list of favorites...(how stupid is that)? It is just as tedious as it can be.
John, This is a great selection of movies for this month. I look forward to watch Drive. For those who live outside USA like me, you can use UnoTelly or other similar tools to access Netflix overseas.

Pack the House as Women's Basketball Plays Regular Season Finale
By Rachel Buck (@GBRachel)
GREEN BAY, Wis. (GreenBayPhoenix.com) – It's time to "Pack the House" for senior, alumni and parents day on Saturday as the Green Bay women's basketball team hosts its final regular season game of the 2013-14 campaign, welcoming Detroit to the Kress Events Center for a 1 p.m. tip.
Saturday's contest is a Festival Foods Family Game, with youth tickets just $3. Fans are also encouraged to bring canned food items for the Cellcom canned food drive to benefit the Salvation Army. The first 750 fans to donate will receive a Phoenix tumbler.
In a pregame ceremony, the current members of the Phoenix squad will be introduced alongside their parents, while returning alumni will be recognized for their contributions to the program and university at halftime.
Following the game, seniors Breannah Ranger (Skokie, Ill.) and Sam Zastrow (Algoma, Wis.) will take to the court to be recognized for their accomplishments with the Phoenix through their five-year careers.
Live audio with Bruce VandenPlas on the call will be available for free via GreenBayPhoenix.com or on the Green Bay Phoenix App on IOS and Android devices. Video of the game will be available online for free through the Horizon League Network.
Green Bay is coming off of a 67-52 win over Oakland on Thursday, guaranteeing the Phoenix at least a share of its 16th-consecutive Horizon League regular season championship. The streak is currently the longest active in the nation. It also helped Green Bay secure the top seed in the upcoming conference tournament, March 12-16. Information for the upcoming tournament can be found here.
The Phoenix is also one win away from its 27th 20+ win season in program history. Green Bay has reached the milestone 14 consecutive years, and head coach Kevin Borseth has achieved the feat in all but one of his seasons with the Phoenix.
Saturday's game is the 48th all-time meeting between Green Bay and Detroit, with the Phoenix leading 40-7. Green Bay has won the last five meetings, including an 84-72 triumph at Detroit on February 1 of this season.
Starting the conference season 1-11, Detroit is 2-1 in its last three games with wins over Valparaiso and Youngstown State to move to 3-12 in the conference and 6-22 overall this season. The Titans most recently fell at UIC, 83-66, on Thursday. Senee Shearer leads the team with 19.5 points per game and recently broke the program record for career three point baskets made. Ellisha Crosby averages 17.5 points and a team-high 7.4 rebounds per game, while Tayelor McCalister is the only other Titan in double-digit scoring with 12.1 while also dishing out a team-best 3.4 assists per game.
1. Sweet 16th: With a win over Oakland on Thursday, Green Bay guaranteed at least a share of the Horizon League regular season conference championship, its 16th-consecutive title. The win also guaranteed the Phoenix the top seed in the upcoming conference tournament. The streak of 16 seasons is currently the longest active streak in the nation.
2. Roaring Twenties: With a win against Detroit on Saturday, Green Bay would lock up its 27th all-time 20+ win season in program history. It would also mark the 15th consecutive 20+ win season and 10th under head coach Kevin Borseth, who has reached the mark in all but one season in his time at Green Bay.
3. Sharp Shooter: In her senior season at Green Bay, Breannah Ranger has established herself as the top threat to score in the paint for the Phoenix. Against Oakland on Thursday Ranger finished with a career-high 19 points, going 8-for-13 (.615) from the field. This season Ranger has scored 10+ points in 16 games and shot over 50 percent in 17 contests. She currently leads the Horizon League shooting 54.5 percent (120-220).
4. Off the Bench: The Green Bay reserves have provided an offensive spark in the last six contests, averaging 24.6 points per game, including a conference season-high 35 at UIC on Feb. 8. The Phoenix has received contributions from everyone on its roster this season, and has had 10 or more players score in a game seven times.
5. Trophy Buck: Freshman Tesha Buck is making quite an impact in her first season with the Phoenix. Buck is just the second true freshman to start for the Phoenix since 1998, joining Sarah Eichler (2009) on the list. Named the Horizon League Freshman of the Week on four occasions this season, including receiving the honor this week, Buck has already surpassed her predecessor's numbers from her freshman campaign in every category, posting 286 points (186), 145 rebounds (88), 107 assists (47), nine blocks (2) and 49 steals (40).

When computing eigenvalues and eigenvectors of matrices it is useful to
SetOptions[Roots, Cubics -> False, Quartics -> False]
to prevent Mathematica from explicitly solving the Cubics that arise
when computing the roots of a cubic equation (for n=3). This should
greatly reduce the memory usage.

Dominant Miley takes loss as D-backs blanked
Dominant Miley takes loss as D-backs blanked
But whatever momentum they had has come to a grinding halt in the Lone Star State.
The D-backs squandered an outstanding pitching performance by Wade Miley in falling, 1-0, to the Rangers on Wednesday night.
After scoring 37 runs in the final five games of the homestand -- all wins -- Arizona has managed just one run in two games against the two-time defending American League champs.
When asked what his team's offense needed to do to snap out of its funk, D-backs manager Kirk Gibson was blunt.
"I don't really have an answer for you," he said.
- 142 wins
- 110 wins
For 7 2/3 innings, the Rangers didn't have much of an answer for Miley, who bolstered his case for National League Rookie of the Year with another gem.
"That guy Miley was doing a good job," Rangers manager Ron Washington said. "He was mixing well. He must have had a sneaky fastball, because I didn't see it get past 91 [mph] at the highest. He was mixing in a quick curve and a changeup."
The left-hander allowed just two hits through the first seven innings and only one Texas runner made it as far as second base.
"He's throwing the ball extremely well," said shortstop Willie Bloomquist. "His tempo is outstanding. It's fun to play behind him, because he gets it and goes. Guys don't have a whole lot of success off you when you're painting down in the zone and on the corners. There's not a lot you can do with it, I don't care who you are. He's attacking guys, working quick and changing speeds in the zone and doing a good job."
Not even a 29-minute rain delay to start the fifth could slow down Miley.
Then came the eighth inning.
Mike Napoli led off the eighth for the Rangers by drawing a seven-pitch walk. The final pitch of the at-bat, a slider, was called low by home-plate umpire Jeff Kellogg. Miley concurred after watching the video.
"It was close," Miley said. "He got it right. It was a good call. It could have gone either way. It was a borderline pitch, but I checked it out. He got it right."
Yorvit Torrealba sacrificed Napoli to second and Miley fanned pinch-hitter Nelson Cruz for the inning's second out.
That brought Craig Gentry to the plate, and he crushed a one-hopper that ticked off third baseman Ryan Roberts' glove into left field to score Napoli with the game's only run.
"I threw that pitch 15 times and got outs," Miley said of the fastball to Gentry. "But that one, he put a good swing on it."
"That ball was smoked," Bloomquist said. "He scorched it. That's why they call it the hot corner. You don't have any time to react. I didn't even react until it was past him. I can't even imagine what it's like over there. That's a play that not many people, if any, make. It's one where you're lucky if you wear it in the teeth and keep it in front of you, because there's nothing else you can do."
That his teammates thought it was nearly an impossible play was of little consolation to Roberts, a Fort Worth native, who was playing in front of friends and family.
"There's ifs, ands or buts," Roberts said. "There's wish you woulda, wish you coulda, but at the end of the day, nobody is carrying it worse than me, so that's how it goes. It's not a good feeling. You wish you could get in front of it, you wish you could block it. Could you have? I don't know. Was it hit hard? Yeah. The last person in the stadium that wants to do that is me. Especially here. And especially when Wade's pitching his butt off against that team and that lineup and keeping us in the game when we haven't been scoring runs.
"It's tough to swallow. There's really not a whole lot to say about it."
While Miley was outstanding, Rangers starter Matt Harrison was nearly as good. The left-hander allowed six hits and two walks over 7 1/3 innings.
The D-backs were 0-for-3 with runners in scoring position for the second straight night, and they stranded six runners. On Tuesday night, it was Colby Lewis who held Arizona to just one run.
"It was more of the same from yesterday," Gibson said. "Those guys both pitched similar. We only had a few opportunities. We had three opportunities to get a guy in and left all six guys on, had two double plays, so it was a tough game."

Quick Facts About Oxford Graduate School
Who We Are
- Location: Dayton, TN, USA
- Degrees Offered: Doctor of Philosophy in the Integration of Religion and Society and Master of Letters in Family Life Education, Organizational Leadership, or Integrated Studies
- Accreditation: Nationally Accredited by the Transnational Association of Christian Colleges and Schools (TRACS), which is recognized by the United States Department of Education (USDE) and the Council for Higher Education Accreditation (CHEA).
- Learning Format: Blended Short-term Residencies and Distance Education
- Learning Experiences: Week -long residencies on the campus in Dayton, TN. Research Seminars at the Bodleian Library in Oxford, UK, and the Library of Congress, Washington, DC, USA.
Oxford Graduate School is an independent, free-standing, research institution committed to providing a quality educational experience for Christian adults. Founded in 1980, it is located on a campus near Dayton, Tennessee (between Knoxville and Chattanooga). Oxford Graduate School is non-denominational, non-profit, and non-discriminatory.
The institutional goal is the integration of religion and society and includes increasing morality and ethics in business and industry and principles and values in all society. The doctoral program is designed to teach research focused on the family, community, and the church or a combination of these areas. The masters program is offered in two curricular areas: Family Life Education and Organizational Leadership.
Our Solidarity of Faith
All Faculty and Members of the Board of Regents annually sign a statement of Solidarity of Faith. This set of theological statements (found in the Catalog, elsewhere on this site) affirms those beliefs around which Christians across the globe have united throughout the centuries. This commonality leads to an atmosphere of unity that facilitates dialogue about the theological and moral issues that are of primary importance. Students are not asked to sign the statement.
Our Uniqueness
Curricular requirements of Oxford Graduate School call for students to incorporate the principles of their faith into their academic work and to show how it influences their vocational practices. The School is not a Seminary; it does not offer courses in Biblical studies or theology, although students are encouraged to incorporate such study into assignments, and the curriculum supports their doing so.
Adults who earn a degree from Oxford Graduate School demonstrate a sincere commitment to scholarship. Our doctoral requirements match or exceed those of programs of which we are aware that have similar curricular goals. Oxford Graduate School students reach their goals because learning has immediate application to their personal lives.
How We See Ourselves
Our commitment is to help each student achieve his or her goals; to carry out existing work more effectively, be more aware as a Christian, and to extend one's giftedness into new means of service. Our size and specialization allow us to function much as does a university department with strong personal attention to what benefits each student. We find great joy in helping students realize success at levels beyond their expectations.

You should start with a gravity bleed with the engine off . Because you have replaced the rear brake line you could start at the right rear and perform a conventional manual " pump " bleed . A good method if you like is to get a length of plastic tubing that will fit snuggly on the bleeder screw and insert it into a bottle with brake fluid in the bottom making sure the hose is submersed in fluid - open the bleeder screw . Fill the master cylinder and begin pumping ( this could take some time - be patient ) remember to keep the master cylinder topped up . Pump until there are no more bubbles .

To agree with the Headmistress to send home pupils who do not conform to regulation school uniform.(301 Posts)
I am totally fed up with school pupils who look a mess and are not dressed in correct or regulation school uniform. I never understand why many schools allow 6th form pupils free will in their choice of clothes.
I think that if pupils are unable to abide by school uniform regulations what hope of they got when they leave school and are going to interviews.
I believe that all school pupils including 6th form pupils should wear a regulation school blazer and school tie so they can show which school they go to.
Headmistress like Leslie ellis are standing up for standards that have been in decline since the 1970"s and need to be fully supported in their desire to hold standards to at least the very shoddy standards that pupils display today. I for one am delighted that a head was prepared to take ridicule and derision in standing up for standards.
After reading the constant criticism of leslie ellis i thought it was time that someone stood up for a upstanding member of the teaching profession.
Message withdrawn at poster's request.
I get pissed off with the parents who send their DC into school with turquoise socks and black skirts when the uniform is white socks and navy skirts. They are just trying to make a point. Pathetic. Home school if you don't want to conform.
Message withdrawn at poster's request.
Hold standards to at least the Shoddy standards of today. That does not seem right.
No, Leslie Ellis is bloody stupid IMO. The school couldn't supply the uniform yet she still went into overkill mode and sent children home, or put them into isolation when they and their parents had absolutely no control over the situation. Some of the children had only started that day, what a great impression she gave to them and their parents!
DS2 goes to sixth form in jeans and a t-shirt, just as DS1 did. DS1 got high A level grades so it didn't affect his learning. I would, personally, like a dress code because it would save a faff in the mornings.
I don't, however, understand why a school needs to have a star or other emblem on a skirt or pair of trousers. What is wrong with a school tie, jumper or blazer? Why when times are so hard for so many families are they making it so expensive to send our kids to school? Not only that, are they making lots of leg lengths (DS2 is a 34" inside leg), different trouser styles for girls, because as women we know one style does not fit all? It's just completely over the top in my opinion!
i googled - there isn't much about this, so I'm a little surprised that anyone has found "constant criticism".
The problem is a big bang change. If I had DC who had finished growing and who had uniform in good order, I would not be happy about being ordered to change it for just year 11. There really should be 3-6 terms of running the two uniforms alongside each other.
But logo'ed trousers and skirts!?! Sounds vile, as well as being seriously atypical.
There was a thread about LE, scaevola.
I think it's important so that children know what rules are. There are so many who don't seem to have any at home (I know from my own children's tales) that some homes just don't have any discipline. These are the ones that will go out to the workplace and not have a clue how to behave - so good on Leslie Ellis for caring.
Isn't there a thread about her on AIBU saying that the uniform didn't come into the shop in time, so it was send them in wearing wrong uniform, or not at all. In which case she IBU.
I agree in principal, but really schools are making it more and more difficult to stick to the uniform. Logos on trousers? Is that really going to raise standards? I think not.
DS1 used to wear the "wrong" colour socks when he was at school. It was specified that they wore dark plain socks, so he did. Dark red, dark purple, dark blue etc. The HT would argue she meant black, well she should have bloody said black then!
It didn't affect his learning, he got the 2nd highest GCSE results in his year!
Message withdrawn at poster's request.
You see I totally support a strict uniform but in the context of breaking rules it falls behind: bullying, theft, assault, pyromania, disruption, drug taking, smoking, drinking on the premises and in the uniform. I will respect all members of the teaching profession when their rinciples become aligned with right and wrong and proper efforts are made to ensure the dc who want to learn can learn. It's why we removed our dd from a state comp at the end of year 8. PRIORITIES do you hear - sort out te PRIORITIES. Dd is a goody two shoes btw but how I would have loved a letter or complaint about the length of her skirt - oh how I would have loved it.
So long as they put as much effort into education and welfare then I agree. I went to a school that cared lots about uniform and not much about teaching or welfare, therefore I would say uniform is less important than the other stuff.
Here is the other thread.
Thanks - didn't show on google. And if you don't want to read an MN thread, you just hide it? Not start what is proving to be a TAAT.
I went to school in the late 1970s and there was no uniform in the 6th Form. The reason is simple - you could leave school at 15/16 and there was no need to put people off staying on by enforcing an unnecessary uniform.
We also called the teachers by their first names in the 6th Form as well...shock horror. Also if you had no lessons timetabled, you could stay at home..shock horror. I think OP's attitude is ridiculous oldfashioned claptrap.
Bear in mind that office dress codes have relaxed a massive amount in the last 15 years...my husband is often the only one wearing a tie in business meetings and that is wonderful in my opinion.
Totally unreasonable. School uniform in a state school is a stupid waste of everybody's time and resources.
There is no evidence that school uniform has any real impact on learning. Heads like imposing school uniform as a way of exerting power and control.
Pride in the organisation comes first. If the organisation is worthy of pride then students will be happy to wear the uniform. If the organisation is not worthy of students' respect then no amount of bullying behaviour by the head will result in students paying more than lip service to the uniform.
I see this clearly with my DS. He belongs to the Army Cadets, he takes enormous pride in that organisation. As a result he puts huge effort into being smartly turned out. He is not proud of his school (bottom 20 in England so who would be?). His school uniform would make a scarecrow blush.
OP this might make your head implode but if girls are being told not to wear make up at school for instance just as an example then im assuming women wont be expected to wear make up to job interviews......oh wait
I half-agree with that, Worry. DS will smarten up immensely for choir events (bow ties, no less!) and take pride in being part of a unit.
But he's also immensely proud of his (shabby, sweatshirted) school, and of their scary, well-respected headteacher.

No, Leslie Ellis is bloody stupid IMO. The school couldn't supply the uniform yet she still went into overkill mode and sent children home, or put them into isolation when they and their parents had absolutely no control over the situation. Some of the children had only started that day, what a great impression she gave to them and their parents!
She blamed the kids for something that was the schools fault. Which makes her an abusive gaslighter.
WorrySighWorrySigh good post.
YABU because the cockup was the school's - they failed to manage the logistics. Pupils were not able to obtain the uniform, therefore the head should have apologised, instituted a grace period and lived with it.
I am opposed to school uniform - I grew up in Holland, and amazingly enough there was no enormous breakdown of law and order in schools because of the lack of uniform. Odd, that . But since I chose to live in the UK and send my DDs to school here, I have adapted. I'm just glad that the schools I send my DDs to are sensible about uniform and don't rip off parents for the sake of a few logos.
When both my DSes were at school they wore their uniforms properly. They tucked their shirts in, did their top buttons up, tie knots right up to their collars, the right shoes which were polished.They were good lads. DS1 had the sock issue but you couldn't tell until he sat down. The HT still moaned about it.
DH is Forces. He has size 14 feet, they can't supply him the correct shoes so they let him wear Doc Martens, and he is allowed to wear M&S black socks.
To me there has to be some common sense, but all to often when these stories are rolled out (usually in the DM) it seems to be lacking.
Lancelottie, is your DS proud to wear his school sweatshirt to his school?
My DS is not at all proud to attend his unutterably crap school. Therefore DS is not at all proud to wear his blazer. Funnily enough there is no rush to put the school badge on his new blazer.
On the other hand DS will happily spend hour bulling his parade boots for cadets and is nagging for a new pair of work boots as his old pair no longer reach his exacting standards.
The whole pride thing is a red herring. My DD is proud of her academic achievements, and she acknowledges the part her teachers have played in that. Her logo blazer has bugger all to do with it.

The newly named 2016 Scout 300 four-star cornerback has gone from a relatively unknown prospect to a top flight recruit -- and in the process has earned five offers.
Hill, who earned his first offer from Illinois on June 14, has since earned offers from North Carolina, N.C. State, Miami (Fla.) and Temple. He earned the majority of his offers during Cass Tech's southern camp trip to the majority of the schools mentioned.
Michigan was the first school Hill and his Cass teammates camped at in mid-June. While Hill didn't earn an offer at U-M's camp, he was in the middle of the action all day and made multiple plays on the ball in the one-on-ones. He was easily one of the top players in attendance.
"I feel like I did pretty good," Hill said. "There was some good competition. I think I got better at camp. I Just keep working and keep working hard."
Also during his camp visit he had a chance to talk with the U-M coaching staff about a possible future with the program.
"To just keep working and they really like me a lot," Hill said on message from the Wolverine coaching staff. "And then look forward to the offer in the future."
Hill's older brother, Delano Hill, is entering his sophomore season at Michigan. So Hill is very familiar with Michigan's program. Which would make a possible U-M offer that much sweeter.
"It would mean a lot," Hill said on a possible U-M offer. "Because my brother goes there. That would be a good thing. But I would still keep it open to more opportunities [with other schools]."
Hill says he plans on coming back to campus for some Michigan home games this year. He also noted he would like to check out more of the academia offered on campus.
Next up for Hill are visits to Tennessee and Ohio State in late July.

Replacing Volvo with Yanmar
I am planning on replacing the Volvo MD11C in my Pearson 323 with a Yanmar YM30. I had a couple of good comments from the Pearson owners group and some photos. If anyone here has this experience I would like hear about it, expecially any real gotchas. Also I heard the Yanmar turns left and the Volvo turns right, is this correct?
I changed a MD 21A for a 4JH4E last year. Somewhere here is a post about it. The prop direction depends on the gearbox. I thought I had to reverse everything but it turned out that the ZF gearbox I chose was not fussy which direction was forward. Just link the gear lever in the desire direction.
There were a lot of surprises. The exhaust exited on the opposite side and was a larger diameter, so I needed a new exhaust system including stern outlet. It also meant that the battery box was in the way and had to be moved. The gearbox drive shaft was lower, as well as the engine mounting points being different, so to fit it in, I went to a Python drive. But then the mounting got in the way of the raw water inlet, so it had to be moved. The calorifier pipes are on the opposite side, but I was moving the calorifier anyway. Check if you have access to the raw water pump and the alternator belt adjustment, ...
While I was in there, of course the bilge needed cleaning and repainting, and I fitted new bilge pump and switches.
Oh! and the alternator demanded a new arrangement - remember to order an alternator that can be externally controlled - if you intend to use external control.
Anyway, it ended in having a smoother, cleaner, more economical but more powerful unit. - So I had to have the boat out again to put more pitch on the Maxprop.
Best of luck.:)

Does your family archive include ticket stubs, programs, licenses or calling cards? Whether they were forgotten in the pages of a book or carefully pasted into a scrapbook, these items are what we call ephemera.
The glossary by the Society of American Archivists defines ephemera as "materials, usually printed documents, created for a specific, limited purpose, and generally designed to be discarded after use."
Marty Weil runs ephemera.com. It's full of fascinating paper treasures and heavily illustrated with color scans. Very "visually appealing" as we used to say in the children's publishing biz. Basically, this guy is an ephemera guru. So you can imagine how excited I was when he invited me to offer storage and handling tips to his many readers. In hindsight, I might have been a little too excited, because I rambled on so much Marty had to publish it as a two-parter.

Has anyone had new lenses put into an old pair of frames before? I'm talking about vintage frames, not a new pair you'd buy at Lenscrafters that they'd probably already have ready-made lenses for.
I was just trying to gauge what it would cost me to turn old frames into sunglasses - any thoughts?
It depends on the frame. Some are not designed to be reused - the lenses cannot be removed and replaced without damaging the frame. Some vintage frames that are older plastic are too fragile and would break when the new lenses are inserted, because the frame is heated to soften the plastic when the lens is popped into place. And then the cost of the lenses will vary depending on if you are getting prescription or not, getting polarization or not, getting basic plastic or high index plastic etc etc.
Take them to an optical shop to see if it can be done and get a quote on their materials.
This can be done. I am a glasses wearer and I have about 4 different pairs of frames and 2 different pairs of prescription sunglasses. I take good care of my frames so that I can get new lenses put in them and have a variety of frames. I have had prescription lenses and sunglass lenses put in vintage cat eye frames from the 50's. If you are talking about frames that old then it will be a matter of what kind of shape the frames are in. Some really old frames are delicate or the plastic has deteriorated and that is why it can't be done. I often by cheap sunglasses or reading glasses that are cute and have prescription lenses put in them...I've never had anyone tell me they can't. And I am blind so my prescription is pretty thick and I have to pay for the expensive lenses.
Good Luck!

Very good article, which describes the realities of the comparison. Its amusing the number of posts which demonstrate the lack of understanding and denial of the facts, even hilarious.
Very good and well thought out presentation dpreview.
I was getting ready to purchase the EM1 or EM 10 but I will now wait to see how this unfolds, if its not real then Oly may take up the challenge!
Chiemsee: By the way, is it unproblematic to access the SAME raw files in a given directory structure with DIFFERENT raw converters?
E.g. LR4 and Photo Ninja... do the share the same xmp-file?? Are the settings completely independent?
Raw converson software providers offer their own individual recipe for processing the RAW sensor data.
So they are not compatible, this is the whole idea of shooting in RAW format , you have the choice of choosing your chef so that you have the taste you prefer.
The competition is what drives the improvements in the processing of raw files. There is no correct/ best "RECIPE". Enjoy.
All very good raw processing software in their own rights. However there are at least six other programs that can offer matching quality conversions. The competition is great and will ensure we continue to see continued improvements.
It would be interesting if there would also be a change to the policy with respect Lightroom? Will LR version 1 and 2 customers be able to upgrade to version 4.
Denis de Gannes: Why no comparison to the conversion of the raw file with the Olympus software Viewer?
Why would one want to compare the results of the camera using a "Beta " profile from Adobe. I expect the results would be updated when the release version is available.
Why no comparison to the conversion of the raw file with the Olympus software Viewer?
Great shot getting there alone and ensuring your E1 worked would have been a challenge. I am sure my e510 would not have been functional.
Very good capture. Did pretty well in the ratings even though the theam was "Beautiful Blue Skys"
Truly a fantastic capture.

New protocols make impact for COPD patients
Doctors are coordinating an effort to keep patients with COPD from having to check back into the hospital.
Re-admission rates are not good for hospitals or their patients and if patients come back in less than 30 days, their care may not be reimbursed. It's a particular problem for patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, or COPD, but new protocols are making an impact.
"It's scary. It's very scary," said Louis Howse.
Howse can't stand watching her husband of 31 years gasp for air. She sees the fear, he feels it.
"It's scary, because you don't know what is going to happen," said David Howse.
Or how to respond: Should they rush to the hospital, or will it pass?
They are questions COPD patients have often and they are now better answered at Rosewalk Village rehab, with a color-coded guide written by Community East physician Dr. Brian Quick. Green means symptoms are all clear, yellow means caution and red stands for a medical alert.
"We have had individual patients we've been able to treat here at Rosewalk, when their symptoms have flared, we have given them appropriate medication, they have improved here. We have not waited until they are sick, not had to go back to the hospital," said Quick.
It gives the staff confidence.
"Especially as a nurse, when you know you can help someone who you know can go down on you really quick and step in and intervene...intervene right away," said Amy Newcomb. "Typically we can follow Dr. Quick's protocol and call and get extra steroids on board, we can do extra breathing treatments that will prevent him from having to go to the hospital."
But in the meantime, they work on recovery. David is now walking with assistance.
"When he came in, he couldn't walk, he couldn't do anything," Louis Howse said.
His first time on the bike, he had to stop after five minutes.
"Now I can go 30," he said.
David credits his wife.
"She is my secret, because she keeps me going," he said.
"I am a driving force," Louis said.
They have the same goal, head home, not back to the hospital.
Suggested Links
"When you go back to the hospital, typically we see that our patients have a lot of setbacks," Newcomb said.
"It's not a place to be...the hospital is no place to be. Home is where we are supposed to be," Louis said.
Rosewalk has similar protocols written by Community East doctors for heart patients.

[CONCACAF CHAMPIONS LEAGUE] Bad goalkeeping and questionable officiating reversed a one-goal lead and sent Los Angeles home from Morelia with a 2-1 loss Tuesday
night in Group A of the Concacaf Champions League.
Provided a 1-0 advantage by Robbie Keane's goal in the 52nd minute, the Galaxy succumbed to late goals by Adrian Aldrete and Miguel Sabah that were helped over the goal line by keeper Josh Saunders, who otherwise performed superbly as the Galaxy tried to become the third MLS team to win a CCL match in Mexico. FC Dallas and Seattle recorded victories in Mexico last month.
Instead, the Galaxy also lost an apparently good goal to an offside decision as it fell for the first time in group play.
Morelia's win pulled it even atop the group with the Galaxy at 2-1-0 and six points. Both teams are on the road next week: Morelia plays Motagua in Honduras, and the Galaxy heads to Costa Rica to play Alajuelense. (Motagua and Alajuelense play Thursday in Tegucigalpa.)
The Galaxy, playing without Juninho (suspended) and David Beckham (rested), nearly scored in the first half when Omar Gonzalez's header from a Landon Donovan free kick came back off the crossbar. The chance followed strong saves by Saunders on shots by Marvin Cabrera and Joao Rojas, and he also smothered a loose ball after his attempt to play the ball caromed off Gonzalez.
Keane scored his first CCL goal and second for the Galaxy by trapping a crossfield ball from Donovan on the right flank, gliding past Jorge Kalu, and firing a shot high past keeper Ricardo Villar. Keane nearly scored again later in the half with a spectacular lob from about 60 yards that Villar backpedaled furiously to tip over the crossbar.
Saunders stoned Morelia several more times before Aldrete equalized in the 83rd minute when his low, long-range shot squeezed under the keeper's body and rolled to the goal line. Saunders lunged to apparently pin the ball with his gloves on the goal line, but his momentum moved it enough that referee Jose Pineda signaled a goal. A Morelia player was in the keeper's line of sight as the shot was taken but replays indicated he wasn't in an offside position.
The officials got that call correct but they erred badly in the 90th minute. Keane pushed a loose ball into the net after it had bounced off a defender as well as Villar, but the goal was waved off for offside. Replays showed Keane and two teammates clearly not closer to goal than the Morelia player as well as Villar when Gonzalez headed the ball towards the net, so the goal should have counted.
Two minutes into injury time, Sabah escaped Chad Barrett on a corner kick to nail a point-blank header that Saunders sprawled to parry, but the spinning ball eluded his grasp and rolled over the goal line.

The most quiet 22 ammo is the Aguila Colibri. It's as quiet as firing a pellet gun.

The most quiet 22 ammo is the Aguila Colibri. It's as quiet as firing a pellet gun.
Don't kid yourself just because you shot it from a rifle. I have shot a .22SR from my NAA Mini Revolver even thought it's not recommended to do so and they are a bit loud. As far as a semi auto goes, I never heard of a semi auto handgun made that is chambered in that. However they do got a conversion kit for the 10/22 rifle that allows the use of shorts and will cycle the action.
That is correct. They are a LR 22 cartridge as well...Originally Posted by Dethlokk
I have fired sub sonic .22 rounds from my rifle and they are pretty quiet. However, the same rounds fired in any of my handguns are still loud.
Aguila produces two types of non-powder .22lr cartridges:
The COLIBRI and the SUPER COLIBRI. Both fire a 20 gr conical lead bullet at around 450 fps and 550 fps from a 6" barrel. They are not recommended for use in any rifle - there's a possibility of the bullet not making it all the way down the bore. I've fired both, when fired from a 6", 4" or 3" barreled revolver they are NOT as quiet as my pellet gun. I use them to test fire revolvers to check for function and cylinder timing. They are reasonably accurate out to about 50 feet with considerable hold over, especially with the COLIBRI. All in all, they are fun to shoot, quite a bit of challenge involved in hitting anything over 50 feet or so. I paid $2.50 per box for both at a gunshow. That seems to be the going rate in this part of PA-EAST.
No longer with us
I know they are not "recommended" for use in a rifle. However, I have shot several hundred out of my Ruger 10/22 rifle with no problem.
Actually the Super Colibri cartridge easily makes it out of a rifle barrel. It's the regular Colibris you have to worry about.
From my experience with them: Fired from my 6" Sportsman, the COLIBRI will penetrate one side of a water filled plastic milk jug at 15 feet and stop in the water. The SUPER will penetrate both sides at that range. The projectiles are very pointy cones at 20 grains, at close ranges they can penetrate, I image they lose their ooomph pretty quickly with distance.
No longer with us
All subsonic.22 ammo is quiet,the hypo.22s bullet braking the sound barrier is the crack we hear.

love your car mate, granted i have an a4 jetta, but its getting near completion and it is going to look very much like yours, white, caged, completely gutted. simplicity at its best..kudos. i'm subscribed.
How's it going, mate? Hadn't seen the new car; looks great!! Love the bumpers & front lip.
Now, the seatbelt mounting points... Any way to move those up higher?
EZ Sniper - great eBay sniping site, free trial too. Works great!

wow i dont know how i missed this build till now but its amazing.
you should move the harnesses up to a more correct level, heaven forbid they ever need to serve the main purpose. keep up the great work!
I just looked through here again and realized that there aren't any engine bay pics.
you got any updates, also you got any engine/bay pictures
So it's been a while, but I'm pretty much there. There's a few niggling problems to sort out as well as plenty of detailing here & there, but I'll work through the list slowly... It's officially on the roads, though
...And I know it could be lower, but it does get used properly, so I'm keeping a sensible ride height to maintain some wheel travel
More soon

PARIS – World champion Patrick Chan gave a performance which he believes can win him gold at the Sochi Olympics as American Ashley Wagner successfully defended her women's title at the Trophee Bompard Grand Prix on Saturday.
Chan won a fourth Paris gold in spectacular style as fellow Canadians Tessa Virtue and Scott Moir claimed their third in ice dancing on the last day of competition at the fifth of the six-round ISU Grand Prix series.
Wagner, 22, held off Russian teenagers Adelina Sotnikova and Anna Pogorilaya, who claimed silver and bronze, respectively, to stay top of the podium.
But three months before the Winter Olympics, it was Chan who stole the show at the Paris-Bercy rink over the two days of competition.
The 22-year-old outshone rival Yuzuru Hanyu as he followed his record in Friday's short program with a new world best in both the free skate, 196.75 points, and overall total score, 295.27.
The Canadian brought the crowd to their feet after his skate to Vivaldi's "Four Seasons" and "Concerto Grosso."
"I don't want to jinx it, but I will say today I'm very pleased with my skate," said Chan.
"I think if I put that up at the Olympics it would be very, very hard to beat.
"I couldn't have done anything better. I criticize myself a lot, but sometimes it's time to give yourself a pat on the back and today is one of those days."
He won by a massive 31.68-point margin over Hanyu with American Jason Brown winning his first senior medal in third.
Chan took to the ice last after his rivals had stumbled through their routines, opening with a superb quad/triple toe loop combination followed by another quad and a triple axel with a further six triple jumps.
"Maybe the last spin could be improved," the three-time world champion mused when asked what he needed to work on.
"It was a level 3 and was supposed to be a level 4. Otherwise I'm very pleased with myself."
Hanyu, 18, was no match as he popped his opening quad jump and fell on his second quad attempt in his skate to Nino Rota's "Romeo and Juliet."
The Japanese champion fought bravely back and completed the remainder of his program cleanly with an additional eight triples.
"I'm really disappointed," said Hanyu, who like Chan qualifies for the Grand Prix Final after they also finished 1-2 at Skate Canada.
"I was thinking about the quad salchow so much that the quad toe loop didn't go well. After that I calmed down and managed to give a good performance."
He added: "The big difference between Patrick and me is experience, so I need to keep practicing."
On the women's side, Wagner finished second in her free skate to Prokofiev's Romeo and Juliet, behind Sotnikova, but held her overnight lead from the short program for an overall 194.37.
"I'm happy despite a performance that wasn't perfect," said Wagner, who like Cup of China winner Pogorilaya and Sotnikova, runnerup in Beijing, qualifies for the GP Final.
Sotnikova, 17, was emotional after her free skate to Camille Saint-Saens' "Introduction and Rondo Capriccioso."
"Finally I was able to skate in a way I haven't skated in a long time," said Sotnikova, who scored 189.81, with Pogorilaya achieving 184.69.
"I'm overwhelmed by my emotions. It's the first time in two years I've skated a clean free program and hopefully now I'll make it to the Grand Prix Final."
Olympic champions Virtue and Moir skated their free program to the story of their 17-year career together with a choreography filled with intricate steps and dazzling dance lifts.
The Skate Canada winners scored 180.96 to take gold ahead of Russia's Elena Ilinykh and Nikita Katsalapov, 171.89, with defending champions Nathalie Pechalat and Fabian Bourzat having to settle for bronze 171.08.
Earlier Chinese veterans Pang Qing and Tong Jian won the pairs title on their sixth attempt despite an error-strewn performance to "I Dreamed a Dream," from Les Miserables.
"This is our last season so to get the gold medal here is very important to us," said 34-year-old Tong.
The Olympic silver medallists scored their season's best 126.17 points for the free skate and 193.86 overall for their fifth medal in Paris.
Canada's Meagan Duhamel and Eric Radford took silver for the second consecutive year with an overall total of 190.89 and 124.82 for their free skate to the "Alice in Wonderland" soundtrack.
American's Caydee Denney and John Coughlin finished in third place.
The final leg of the Grand Prix series, the Cup of Russia, takes place in Moscow next weekend.
