A Contemporary Option For A Classic Application
The steering system in a classic truck is one that can oftentimes leave something to be desired when compared to those of contemporary automobiles. And those trucks equipped with a huge steering wheel on a rather flat plane similar to that of a bus hooked to a worn original box and tie-rod ends can only further that desire to upgrade to something a little less archaic. Enter today's aftermarket industry and the plethora of options available that provide everything from the mundane to the insane. From stock style, no frills, straight, plain steel, to polished billet aluminum telescopic, tilt columns with automatic shifters, turn signals, and a complete wiring harness, the sky's the limit when it comes to retrofitting that old hauler with an upgraded steering column and associated components.
The stock steering system on many old Fords is one of those that falls under the "room for improvement" category, especially when other suspension upgrades have been made. Obviously, if a Mustang II front suspension setup has replaced that straight-axle design, it probably included a contemporary rack-and-pinion setup, as well. If this is the case, you have two options: modifying that original column to accept modern universal joints or replacing it completely. We recently went through such a predicament with our project F-1 and turned to the gang over at Flaming River Industries to get our project pointed in the right direction.
While our requirements were fairly simple compared to some more radical applications, we did have a few stipulations for the Flaming River crew. First off, since we're building our F-1 with a "traditional" mindset, we wanted the majority of components to appear as close to stock as possible. Obviously, with the installation of a Mustang II IFS and the prerequisite universal joints that accompany a rack-and-pinion steering system, there were consolations to be made. But when it came down to choosing a steering column, we wanted it to appear as original as possible while still embracing some of the more "creature comfort" features that a modern, aftermarket steering column can provide.
That said, they directed us to their Nostalgia line of steering columns. These feature a classic bell-style column that is almost identical to the stock Ford unit with the convenience of a built-in, modern GM turn signal, hazard, and horn setup. Further investigation revealed that the Flaming River crew was working on a telescopic unit that featured a full 2 inches of adjustability without the bulkiness of some telescopic units. Given the rather limited adjustability of the stock F-1 bench seat, this sounded like a sensible option if our wives or girlfriends ever wanted to hop in the driver's seat and head to the grocery store. The telescopic ability also facilitates changing steering wheels with varying degrees of dish and still maintaining a comfortable driving position. After taking a few measurements of the stock F-1 column and cab, we gave Flaming River a jingle and had them whittle out a polished stainless steel unit for the old truck.
With the column sorted, our conversation turned (no pun intended) to mating the column's 1-inch DD shaft to the rack-and-pinion's 3/4-inch by 36-spline output shaft. They recommended using a three U-joint system to alleviate any drastic steering angles, resulting in a steering system that would be absent of any bind and would allow it to collapse in the event of a frontend collision. Of course, that would necessitate adding a support bearing somewhere in the system to prevent the shafts from binding as well as keep it solidly mounted; a simple addition that is mounted off a custom-made bracket.
We started out with a 30-inch Telescopic Nostalgia column mounted off a 2 1/2-inch column drop and bolted it to the dash in the stock location. The toeboard on our F-1 was a bit worse for wear, and after our pedals were installed, we welded up a new plate to clean up the floor. A 2-inch hole was cut in the new toeboard for the column to slip through, and with the new column in place, we were off and running.

Develop a Strong Background in Biology and Chemistry with a Biochemistry Degree
Dive deep into the study of biochemistry including applications of nanomaterials and genetic engineering.
Whether you want to explore the mysteries of DNA, aid in the development of innovative biotechnologies or study the diagnosis and treatment of disease, you can reach your career goals with a biochemistry degree from Florida Tech. Here, you'll develop a strong background in biology and chemistry and get hands-on experience in analysis and instrumentation.
Biochemistry careers are built on a solid foundation of understanding complex chemical reactions that occur inside each living organism. Also known as the chemistry of life, the study of biochemistry connects the living world and the chemical world to study the processes that occur in plants, animals and single-celled organisms. Biochemistry is responsible for a majority of the advances in medical research, agriculture and genetic engineering, all of which are generally accomplished by tying together new medical technologies and discoveries in both genetic and cell biology. When new or transformational discoveries are unveiled, it is likely that a biochemist is part of the team. With a biochemistry degree, this could be you.
Choose a Biochemistry Specialty Early in Your Academic Career
Biochemistry degree students are immersed in "real science," not just book learning. As you get to know your professors and work among your peers in small classes and department gatherings, you'll soon find an opportunity to join a research group. Courses like Biological Discovery and Introduction to Biochemistry are among the classes taken in your first year. Guided by highly qualified faculty who care about your success, you'll hone your strengths and begin specializing as early as your second year.
Build Professional Relationships
Beyond the classroom, biochemistry majors build leadership and professional experience through exciting internships and participation in academic organizations like Tri Beta (biological sciences honor society), the Premed Club, Student Government and over 100 other student organizations. Biochemistry majors also participate in exciting summer field programs that take them to Costa Rica, Peru, the Caribbean, Australia, the Appalachians and Rocky Mountains and the African savannah.
Gain Practical Experience
As seniors, students refine their practical skills in technical electives and specialized labs. They also have the opportunity to undertake exciting independent or collaborative (with a peer or professor) research in a topic of their choosing. All undergraduate biochemistry students present papers at academic meetings and conferences. As a result, they get practical experience, an enhanced job search portfolio and the perfect preparation for employment or graduate school.

Every 20% drunk you are, creatures appear one level lower than they actually are.
Hilarious! An elegant way to model poor judgement.
Every 20% drunk you are, creatures appear one level lower than they actually are.
I think the basic paladin mechanics are to blame, which includes the seals. Blizz has had a hard time giving us decent moves, in part due to the fact that against most classes we have invincibility for 10 seconds, while being able to attack or being able to heal. Invincibility, plate, healing...why should they get dps?
There was a post on the wow forums that asked for a revamp of the paladin, creating sort of a hybrid between a paladin, a warrior of sigmar and a bit like a death knight.
Imagine for a second, that not all paladin abilities relied on mana, however mana was still an integral part of the paladin. There would also be a holy energy bar that sotres holy energy much like the vial of the sunwell. Healing and crits (maybe other things, like blocks....test it obviously) could fill up this energy bar. Some paladin moves could only be used with a x amount of energy, just like a warrior. The energy could also affect the strength of moves. Say, for example, nerf the baseline divine shield so it's protection for just a few seconds...and dispellable. However, provide bonuses such as extended time and undispellability if you have 100% holy energy when you use it.
It would help holy paladins exactly as the vial of the sunwell works...adds +healing to spells when you activate the use of the energy for it. This means a holy paladin could build up +healing to use in burst situations, even while mobile...activate the energy bar to use up all built up energy on the next cast, and cast shock.
Could this energy be burnable? I'd like to avoid that, so I'd advocate for this energy only to be able to be used if you have the mana to cast the spell in the first place.
If you must burn this energy, then i suggest a rage burn, energy burn, and runic power burn...just to be fair. (and to piss off the rogues)
The suggestion is unpolished, however, when I look at it, it screams paladin. (I do not take credit for the idea, its bits and pieces from warhammer and warcraft characters put together by Aeito of Bloodscalp)
Think about it. Please...I'd like feedback.
It's an interesting idea. But it's too big a change. Even the changes we see in 3.02 are much smaller in scope.
Changing our main resource of mana into a different resource is not going to happen. The best we can do is propose a mechanism where mana "mimics" the effect you want to get.
"Hilarious! An elegant way to model poor judgement."
Should I be saying "I see what you did there"?
Umm. Probably not. I was just talking about the drunkenness effect, not making a commentary on anything else.ReplyDelete
Rohan, I know you've mentioned this before but this is another excellent, hilarious and clever way that Blizzard polishes their games. By no means am I the most experienced player, but the fact that something new like this can wow me after 2 years is a nice treat.ReplyDelete
I remember running the warrior "gauntlet" quest in redridge where you have to complete a circuit drunk. I thought "why are these mobs grey?" it was pretty hilarious. . .ReplyDelete
@ the first post - Divine Shield is dispellable.ReplyDelete
You sir, are sober too often.
I noticed this a LONG time ago...
For a brief moment, I hoped that it actually WORKED and enemies would act like a lower lvl for your hit table... I never tested it on a boss, but it didn't seem to pan out.
(While a post TBC thing, the pony keg is one of the best items in the game)

JOHNSON CITY, Tenn. (Nov. 2, 2013) – With the excitement of football's return to ETSU continuing to grow, the Department of Intercollegiate Athletics welcomed back to campus former football players, coaches, cheerleaders, support personnel and fans for a special "meet and greet" opportunity during Homecoming festivities Saturday morning inside the ETSU/MSHA Athletic Center.
ETSU President Dr. Brian Noland, Director of Intercollegiate Athletics Dr. Richard Sander, head football coach Carl Torbush, and football consultant Phillip Fulmer were on hand to visit with those that gathered Saturday inside the Dome.
"This is really special to invite so many former football players, coaches, cheerleaders, band members, and other supporters back to campus for an event," Torbush said. "What's even more exciting is to think that two years from now we will have a Homecoming game for our fans to enjoy."
Sander said that while there has been a lot of interest in football's return, there will be even more news coming in the next several months, and that the goal of these announcements will be to fuel interest in the local community and beyond.
Sander also said that Saturday's event was about continuing to rally support for what will be a successful new program.
"Creating and maintaining a championship-level football program is a major initiative and it will take the support of everyone who loves ETSU," Sander said. "Today was a great opportunity to share information about our plans for the program, but at the same time talk about the financial realities, and that we need everyone's support if we are going to reach our goals."
"To see all the alumni back here in the Mini Dome is awesome," said former Southern Conference first team all-conference linebacker Derek Fudge (1995-99). "This is just great to see everyone back here and excited about football again."

NEW YORK CITY - A cliché of wrestling promos is when the guy says "the time for talking is over."
But talking was the order of the day as WrestleMania weekend kicked off with a press conference to hype the WWE's annual extravaganza.
Fans got a preview of what to expect this Sunday as some of the participants of WrestleMania's main events hyped their battles for an assembled crowd of approximately 250 media members who packed the seats in the lobby of the famed Radio City Music Hall.
The event, hosted by Michael Cole, was a celebration of not only Sunday's show, but the entire weekend. WWE's charitable events that will take place during the week - including fundraising for Hurricane Sandy relief and Make-A-Wish were highlighted. Representatives from the governments of New York and New Jersey, including NY Mayor Michael Bloomberg's office, praised the company for boosting the local economy by bringing in tourism dollars and local jobs.
Of course, no WWE event would be complete without appearances by WWE superstars, and they came out in spades.
Cole's welcoming comments were interrupted by Fandango, who danced to the stage with a female companion, and told the press how to pronounce his name.
WWE Chairman and CEO Vince McMahon shared his experiences, noting that it was at the first WrestleMania where the term "sports entertainment" was coined. "Nothing can compare to this hybrid of sports and entertainment like WrestleMania."
According to World Heavyweight Champion Albert Del Rio, his match against Jack Swagger will be "the most important match of my life." He also noted that this WrestleMania marks the first in which a Mexican-born wrestler would defend a world championship at the event, making the build-up to his match against the anti-immigration Jack Swagger even more meaningful.
Triple H started to cut a promo against Brock Lesnar when his wife, Stephanie McMahon, came out and reminded him that he was there to talk about the company and all of its successes as a global media force. Stephanie talked about the evolution of Mania from the first event to this one. She noted that with all of the celebrities involved this year, both on the show and through related activities, they could potentially reach 148 million fans through social media.
Mark Henry was up next, and he was brief but intense, like many hope his Mania match against Ryback will be. At one point it looked like he was getting choked up when he talked about his lengthy tenure in the company. "I have been here for 17 years," he said, "and they have been the greatest years of my life." He also swore that he would not let Ryback embarrass him by defeating the World's Strongest Man in his home town. "I was born in Texas, but now I live in Harlem, New York. Sunday is not going to be a good night for Ryback."
CM Punk was terse during his comments, which were directed to his opponent on Sunday, the Undertaker. "Legends, like streaks, are meant to be broken. On Sunday, I will break the streak, and I will break the Undertaker". During the post-conference photo session, SLAM! Wrestling asked Punk whether he thought that the closing segment on RAW -- which saw his advisor Paul Heyman dress up like the recently departed Paul Bearer and Punk pour the contents of the Undertaker's urn (perhaps representing Bearer) all over the Deadman -- was too controversial. Smiling evilly, Punk said simply, "I didn't think it was controversial enough."
Up next was the WWE Champion himself, The Rock. He started off reminiscing about his first match with the company. "Fifteen years ago, I made my debut in WWE at Madison Square Garden. To come back here to New York, to give back to this business, the business that means so much to me, it's truly an honour." He then sang the praises of his opponent on Sunday, John Cena. "To make it truly great, you need an opponent that can do that with you. There is no one better an opponent for me than John Cena. No one even comes close."
Cena didn't really reciprocate, talking more about the event in general and promising that this year's edition would even outdo last year's version which he called "232 minutes of pure entertainment." With respect to his match, he only predicted "a few surprises, some magic moments, and for all to be entertained."
And with that said, and after a subsequent photo session that saw all the superstars pose on top of the Radio City marquee, the time for talking came to an end, and the road to WrestleMania got a little bit shorter.
Bob Kapur ain't as tough as he looks. He bailed on the roast of the Iron Sheik tonight in New York City because something he ate didn't agree with him. Instead, he wrote this story.

The point is that the tradition anyone follows is actually the same tradition as everyone else's, it's just that their perspectives are different, and most Buddhist therefore see only one side of things, whereas there are many many sides to see. The point of of Ekayana is that there are no pitfalls, and that's why it's called the Supreme Vehicle, because it houses all truth-seekers and all of tradition regardless of different perspectives. In this way, I think that perspective--especially tradition perspective--is something we all must see past, in the end. To reach a path beyond perspective, and to walk directly upon the truth of things.tomamundsen wrote:Why follow one tradition? Because then you avoid the pitfall of picking and choosing what already accords with your own understanding and create a new form of YouDharma instead of BuddhaDharma.
The Supreme Vehicle is what facilitates this end, and allows us to make our accomplishments. Not to say that differing traditions don't lead to accomplishment. What it says is, choosing the Supreme Vehicle is certainly not lesser than choosing to fix your perspective in one tradition. Pitfalls we find in our own practice does not come from tradition, any tradition or from teachings. Pitfalls come from our own mind, from our own perspectives.

So I stitched up five more blocks, for the gals in my hive for the 4x5 Modern Quilt Bee! I played around a little bit with fabric placement on these variations, which will give you some alternative ideas for putting this block together.
Weathervane Block Tutorial
final block size: 12.5", finishes at 12" in a quilt
all seams are a scant 1/4", unless otherwise noted
You'll need:
5 different printed or solid fabrics plus one neutral fabric
|2.5" squares
|2.5" x 4.5"
|4.25" square
|4.5" squares
|Fabric A - Yellow
|Fabric B - Light magenta
|Fabric C - Medium Purple
|Fabric D - Dark Purple
|Fabric E - Blue
1. Cut all of your fabric as shown in the chart above.
2. Begin by pairing up your 4.5" center square with one of the 2.5" x 4.5" rectangles of Fabric A. Right sides together, seam one rectangle to the top of your square, then another to the bottom of your square. Press seams open.
3. Match a 2.5" square of Fabric B on both ends of another 2.5" x 4.5" rectangle of Fabric A. Repeat with the remaining 2.5" x 4.5" rectangle.
4. Next, take your pieced strips and add to the right and left sides of your pieced center square (or as shown below to the top and bottom). Press seams open.
6. Next, let's make the outer ring for the block. We'll first be making some flying geese, followed by some HSTs. To make the flying geese, trace a line across the diagonal of all of your neutral squares, then place one at a time on the 2.5" x 4.5" rectangles from Fabric E, as shown below.
Fold back your neutral fabric to line up with the corner of your printed fabric. Press well. Trim excess seam allowance down to 1/4".
Using the remaining four neutral squares, line up raw edges and ensure that your diagonal line makes a triangle when it intersects with the existing neutral square/triangle. Stitch just a few threads closer to the corner again, fold back, press, and trim excess seam allowance.

The Brentford forward Clayton Donaldson claims to have witnessed on-field tensions between Chelsea players during the sides' FA Cup fourth-round 2-2 draw on Sunday and is convinced the League One team can exploit the tinderbox atmosphere at Stamford Bridge and embarrass the European champions in their replay next month.
Donaldson, Brentford's top scorer with 19 goals, claimed to have heard Ashley Cole regularly bemoan the lack of movement of Chelsea's front-line, which was spearheaded initially by Fernando Torres, at Griffin Park. Donaldson was asked to play a selfless role on the right of a five-man midfield, a tactic geared specifically towards snuffing out Cole's threat down the left, and it took an equaliser from Torres seven minutes from time to secure the Premier League side a rematch.
Asked if he had witnessed Chelsea's players becoming agitated on the pitch, Donaldson said: "Absolutely. I was obviously closer to Ashley. He was always mumbling something, always mumbling stuff quietly, but I could still hear what he was saying. He was just getting frustrated. He was saying about the forward players not showing, saying things like 'He needs to be there' and pointing. You could just see straight away that he was getting frustrated. That was a good thing.
"We are confident. That [atmosphere at Stamford Bridge] has played a part in their recent form. Obviously the fans are unhappy with the manager – they don't really like him – so any little thing that goes wrong, they're always on their backs. I think that has played a part in their recent results so, hopefully, we can put that to our advantage and the take the positives and unrest their fans again at their place."
The two games against the Premier League club could end up earning Brentford around £1m, a vital injection of funds at a club that recently revealed it had recorded a loss of £5m for 2012. They retain aspirations to reach the Championship, with players likely to arrive on loan in the window between 8 February and 24 March to bolster that promotion push. Certainly, if nothing else, confidence has been pepped against a team who have lost only once in the FA Cup in normal time since 2006.
Donaldson added: "You couldn't really see that they were European champions. We set out to unsettle them, and we did that. They didn't really create that many chances, which I am very surprised about to be honest, especially with the quality of players they have got. That was down to our hard work. We'd done our homework on them and we stopped them creating. We have to take some credit for that. We're confident, especially given their run of form at home recently not having been the best. The pressure will be on them again."
Chelsea will deliver their written submission on Tuesday as they seek to fight the Football Association's attempts to extend Eden Hazard's three-match ban for his ill-judged attempt to kick the ball out from beneath a time-wasting ball-boy at Swansea last Wednesday. An independent regulatory commission is due to hear the case later this week.
The Premier League club will cite video evidence which appears to show Hazard making contact solely with the ball. They will also point to an incident involving Swindon's Matt Ritchie in a League Two fixture with Oxford a year ago when the visitors' winger clashed with a 16-year-old ballboy at the Kassam stadium. Ritchie was booked at the time and subsequently apologised, with the FA opting against taking further action.

Editor's Note: As you prepare for this Sunday's Academy Awards telecast, take a look at John Mulderig's choices, reprinted below, for 2011's top movies. And at the end you'll find a bonus listing of the year's top 10 family films.
By John Mulderig
Catholic News Service
NEW YORK (CNS) — In late 1965, the three-decade-old National Legion of Decency announced that it was changing its name to the National Catholic Office for Motion Pictures.
That switch represented more than just altered terminology. It signaled an intent on the part of the U.S. church's officially sanctioned film agency to take a more open and positive — though by no means uncritical — approach in its assessment of cinema.
In keeping with this new emphasis, that same year, the film office issued its first list of the 10 best movies released over the previous 12 months.
As with many an innovation, the list gradually became a tradition, one that the media review office of Catholic News Service — which now performs the work originally done by the Legion and its successors — intends faithfully to honor. So here — in alphabetical order – are, first, our choices of the Top 10 films of 2011 suitable for a variety of audiences, followed the 10 best films for family viewing.
Here are the 10 best films overall:
A modern-made silent film, "The Artist" recounts the contrasting fortunes of a dashing star (Jean Dujardin) for whom the arrival of the "talkies" presages decline, and one of his adoring fans (Berenice Bejo) who's destined for stardom. French director Michel Hazanavicius' film is, by turns, zany and hilarious, sad and affecting, uplifting and inspiring (A-III, PG-13).
"The Conspirator" is an engrossing historical drama about the lawyer (James McAvoy) who defended Mary Surratt (Robin Wright), the pro-Confederate widow charged with conspiring to assassinate Abraham Lincoln. Director Robert Redford's portrait of a protagonist admirably committed to the rule of law is made all the more effective by the fair assessment of those with other legitimate priorities (A-III, PG-13).
Stylish — though frequently violent — "The Debt" follows a game of cat-and-mouse across two time periods as three Mossad agents (Helen Mirren, Tom Wilkinson and Ciaran Hinds) track down and capture a Josef Mengele-like Nazi war criminal (Jesper Christensen). While suitable only for mature viewers, as directed with flair by John Madden, this gritty drama will certainly keep them guessing right up to the end (L, R).
In "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, Part 2," director David Yates' gratifying wrap-up to a decade of blockbuster adaptations, the titular wizard (Daniel Radcliffe) continues to battle his evil nemesis (Ralph Fiennes) aided, once again, by his two closest friends (Rupert Grint and Emma Watson). Many of the symbols and themes in this final narrative echo Scripture and comport with Judeo-Christian beliefs (A-II, PG-13).
Set in the early 1960s, the warm, deftly acted drama "The Help" compellingly portrays the efforts of a rebellious white Southerner and would-be journalist (Emma Stone) to write a book documenting the lives of group of black housemaids (most prominently Viola Davis and Octavia Spencer). Writer-director Tate Taylor's adaptation of Kathryn Stockett's best-selling novel uses vivid characterizations to bring the Civil Rights-era struggle for human dignity alive (A-III, PG-13).
The 3-D fable "Hugo" follows the adventures of a 12-year-old orphan (Asa Butterfield) who lives in one of Paris' great train stations during the 1930s. Director Martin Scorsese's paean to the City of Lights, the human imagination and the pioneers of early cinema casts a charming spell (A-II, PG).
"The Ides of March" is a savvy but raw political drama about an up-and-coming press spokesman (Ryan Gosling) who discovers that the campaign manager (Philip Seymour Hoffman) for whom he works and the candidate (George Clooney) in whom he deeply believes are not all they seem. With a sharp script and a powerful cast, Clooney, who also directed and co-wrote, turns in a slick study in the corrupting effects of power (L, R).
Writer-director Woody Allen's "Midnight in Paris" asks the question: Would you be happier living in a long-ago, mythically remembered past? A frustrated Hollywood screenwriter and would-be novelist (Owen Wilson) gets to find out when he gains mysterious entree to the French capital of the 1920s (A-III, PG-13).
"Of Gods and Men" is a brilliant dramatization of real events, recounting the fate of a small community of French Trappist monks (led by Lambert Wilson and including Michael Lonsdale) living in Algeria during that nation's civil war in the 1990s. Using the tools of the monastic life itself, director Xavier Beauvois finds a path to the heart of the Gospel through simplicity, a compassionate sense of brotherhood and an atmosphere of prayer enriched by sacred music and potent silence (A-III, PG-13).
In "The Way," after his semi-estranged son (Emilio Estevez) dies while hiking the ancient pilgrimage route to the Spanish shrine of Santiago de Compostela, a California doctor (Martin Sheen) resolves to complete the journey as a means of honoring the lad's memory. Estevez, who also wrote and directed, takes viewers on a reflective, and ultimately rewarding, exploration of elemental themes that challenges materialistic values (A-III, PG-13).
– – –
And here are the 10 best films for families:
In "The Adventures of Tintin," director Steven Spielberg's visually sumptuous animated adaptation of Belgian cartoonist Herge's famed comic books, the curiously coiffed young reporter (voiced by Jamie Bell) finds himself drawn into a centuries-old mystery. Themes congruent with Judeo-Christian values are advanced through sympathetic main characters, a screenplay faithful to its classic source material and envelope-pushing 3-D technology (A-I, PG).
Actor Samuel L. Jackson narrates "African Cats," an impressive nature documentary charting the varied fortunes of a pride of lions and a clan of cheetahs. Directors Keith Scholey and Alastair Fothergill provide the whole family with a top-quality cinematic safari (A-I, G).
Director Joe Johnston's comic book adaptation "Captain America: The First Avenger" relates the origins story of the superhero (Chris Evans) with a complete absence of cynicism and a crackling undercurrent of dry wit (A-II, PG-13).
"Cars 2," director John Lasseter's winsome sequel, sees a veteran racecar (voice of Owen Wilson) competing against a cocky Italian speedster (voice of John Turturro) in the first-ever World Grand Prix. Amid the sight gags and belly laughs are good lessons about family, friendship, self-esteem and acceptance of others (A-I, G).
In "Gnomeo & Juliet," it's love at first ceramic clink for two garden gnomes — voiced by Emily Blunt and James McAvoy. Director Kelly Asbury's clever animated comedy offers wholesome fun for the entire family (A-I, G).
Vivid animation and a ringing endorsement of the traditional family combine to make director and co-writer Simon Wells' endearing adventure "Mars Needs Moms" a film kids can enjoy and parents will appreciate. Seth Green plays a 9-year-old boy who comes to recognize the deep love his mother (Joan Cusack) has for him after she's kidnapped by Martians (A-I, PG).
Kermit the Frog (voice of Steve Whitmire) and Jim Henson's other singing, dancing, wisecracking puppets return to the big screen in "The Muppets," an old-fashioned and genuinely funny comic outing directed by newcomer James Bobin. (A-I, PG)
"Rio" is a buoyant animated adventure with music about a Brazilian-born macaw (voice of Jesse Eisenberg) who returns to his homeland after being raised as a cosseted pet in Minnesota. Lessons about environmental stewardship and love-inspired loyalty are decked out in kaleidoscopic colors in director Carlos Saldanha's 3-D flight of fancy (A-I, G).
Director Sean McNamara's fact-based drama "Soul Surfer" recounts the story of a devoutly Christian competitive surfer (AnnaSophia Robb) whose life is changed forever by a shark attack. It's an uplifting tale bolstered by stunning cinematography and an unapologetic treatment of religious faith (A-II, PG).
In "Winnie the Pooh," directors Stephen Anderson and Don Hall's delightfully innocent, predominantly animated adaptation of A.A. Milne's classic children's books, the immortal bear (voice of Jim Cummings) finds his characteristic quest for honey interrupted by his friend Eeyore's (voice of Bud Luckey) latest crisis — and by other complications (A-I, G).
Mulderig is assistant director for media reviews at Catholic News Service.
Editor's Note: Here are the CNS classifications for the movies mentioned in this article: A-I — general patronage; A-II — adults and adolescents; A-III — adults; L — limited adult audience, films whose problematic content many adults would find troubling.

Chocolate in the Eighteenth Century
Though we think of chocolate as something to eat today, in the eighteenth century chocolate was a very popular drink. Completely different than hot cocoa available today, the chocolate beverage was more like melted chocolate mixed with water or milk and sometimes spices. Chocolate was often consumed as a satisfying breakfast or quick meal. A truly international food, eighteenth-century chocolate required a variety of imported ingredients such as cocoa, sugar and spices. It was included in military rations for the Revolutionary War by both the Colonists and the British. It was enjoyed by all classes of people, from the gentry (wealthy), middling-sort, and the poor alike.
In this lesson, students will learn about the history of chocolate, the chocolate-making process that was used in the colonial era, and the trade of raw materials that brought chocolate to the colonies. Students will create foldables containing an eighteenth-century map, facts about chocolate, and their own illustrations to further their understanding of the history, science, and economics behind chocolate in the American colonies.
- Feature article: "History of Chocolate: Chocolate in the American Colonies," by American Heritage Chocolate (teacher should read this ahead of time to prepare)
- Chocolate Anticipation Guide
- Historical Map of the Americas (cut handout in half so each student has one map)
- Cocoa Tree Image
- Cocoa Pod Image
- Chocolate History Handout
- Colored pencils, glue, and scissors
Download Lesson Materials (PDF)
- Begin the lesson with the Chocolate Anticipation Guide. Distribute the guide, and ask students to circle the answers they think are true. Remind the students that they will not be graded on these questions. At the end of the lesson, students will answer the same questions.
- Give each student a piece of white 8.5 x 11 paper. Instruct students to fold the paper in half lengthwise. Then, fold each end into the center and crease both ends. Reopen. From both ends, cut lengthwise on the fold to the first crease line. See the Lesson Materials for a diagram.
- Ask students to close the flaps of the foldable. Have students label the flaps of their foldable with the following:
- Top left corner: Cocoa Tree
- Top right corner: Cocoa Bean
- Bottom left: Roast/Shell/Grind
- Bottom right: Draw a diagonal line. Label the sections "Other Ingredients" (e.g., spices, milk, sugar, water) and "Products" (e.g., drink, medicine, candy bar)
- Students should illustrate the stages of the chocolate process on the flaps as you share important information from the feature article, show the short chocolate making video, and display the cocoa tree and cocoa pod images.
- Distribute one copy of the Eighteenth-Century Map of the Americas to each student. Briefly discuss similarities and differences between this eighteenth-century map and a current map of the Americas.
- Instruct students to close the flaps and flip over the paper. Students should glue the map in the center section.
- Discuss the shipping routes used to transport cocoa and sugar to colonial ports. Explain how this demonstrates global interdependence. Students will draw a line from the point of origin to the ports on the East coast. Draw a colored line from the Amazon area to Boston, New York and Philadelphia (the major ports of the American colonies) to represent the shipping of cacao beans. From the West Indies, draw a line to the same ports in another color representing the shipping of sugar. Have students write the name of the ingredient on the corresponding colored line. Note that milk is produced locally in the 18th century. Although milk was not an ingredient in early chocolate, it was used to prepare chocolate for drinking. Without the invention of refrigeration, milk could not be shipped. Also note that any spices added to the chocolate would also need to be imported.
- Distribute the Chocolate History handout. Have students cut out each box, and glue them in order on the inside of each flap. Students should illustrate each fact in the center panel. (In more advanced classes, have students research and write their own facts on the inside of the booklet instead.)
- As a mini-assessment ask students to complete their "Chocolate Exit Questions" and hand them in. If possible, provide students with a bite-sized sample of unsweetened baking chocolate before they complete the exit questions. This should help them answer question #4. (Answers: 1. A; 2. B; 3. all; 4. A; 5. A and B; 6. all.)
Lesson Extensions
- Ask students to find recipes for hot chocolate on their own. Recommend they use search terms such as "Aztec hot chocolate recipe," "Mexican hot chocolate," "18th century chocolate recipe" and/or "eighteenth century hot chocolate." Either individually or in small groups, have students make two of the recipes and compare. They should take pictures documenting their experience and submit a short paragraph explaining their findings. When the class reconvenes, if time permits, ask each individual or group to discuss their experience with another individual or group.
- Trace the history of tea from its international origins to its importation into the colonies.
This lesson was written by Marianne Esposito, Key West, FL, and Kim O'Neil, Liverpoole, NY.

This powerful ability to meld functional data with accurate anatomical information of possible cancerous tumours - from inside the body - provides a visual navigation of organs oftentimes portrayed on television crime shows like "CSI". Such visualization "may be used to detect and characterize cancer, spare someone from more invasive medical procedures, lead to better disease detection rates of colon cancer, provide surgical guidance and detect which tumours may be easier to biopsy", detailed Andrew Quon, clinical assistant professor of radiology/diagnostic radiology at California's Stanford University.
"Three-dimensional fusion provides unique views of the body that internal organs typically impede", stated Andrew Quon. "Our new imaging and processing protocol can peel away the organs, highlight tumours and detect cancerous hot spots - providing an omnipotent perspective of the body", he indicated. Stanford's 3D fusion imaging "appears to have potential for presurgical visualization, particularly in guiding biopsies", explained the co-author of "Flying Through and Flying Around a PET/CT Scan: Pilot Study and Development of 3-D Integrated 18F-FDG PET/CT for Virtual Bronchoscopy and Colonoscopy". This imaging technique "may add important diagnostic information that may herald new applications for the use of PET/CT", he noted. In addition, its diagnostic value was demonstrated in one case in which it revealed a cancer lesion that had not been detected by PET, CT or PET/CT imaging. "This one case shows the potential synergistic enhancement of both PET and CT when rendered into three dimensions", stated Andrew Quon.
PET and CT are standard imaging tools that can be used to pinpoint the location of cancer within the body. When PET is used to image cancer, a radiopharmaceutical, such as fluorodeoxyglucose or FDG, which includes both a sugar and a radionuclide, is injected into a patient. Cancer cells metabolize sugar at higher rates than normal cells, and the radiopharmaceutical is drawn in higher concentrations to cancerous areas. The highly sensitive PET scan picks up the metabolic signal of actively growing cancer cells. The CT scan generates a detailed picture of internal anatomy, locating and revealing the size and shape of abnormal cancer growths. When these two results are fused together, the functional data from the PET imaging is correlated with anatomy on the CT images to provide a single detailed and informative image.
Standard 2D PET and PET/CT images with FDG are accurate for evaluating lung and colorectal cancer; however, they lack the anatomic information that can be provided by 3D images from a multidetector CT scan. Even so, with 3D CT scans, small and flat lesions in the lungs and colon are difficult to see or characterize, stated Andrew Quon. "Our study takes this to another level", he noted, indicating that fused PET/CT images with 3D volume rendering may provide additional beneficial information for image interpretation and create new areas of clinical application. While this technology may become standard over the next three to five years, "it could have exciting applications in cardiovascular imaging, providing 3D views of blood vessels and possibly identifying individuals at risk for heart disease", he predicted.
In the case of a patient with colorectal cancer - a term used to refer to cancer that develops in the colon or rectum and is the second leading cause of cancer-related deaths in the United States - the current standard of care is a colonoscopy, a procedure where a long, flexible, lighted tube is inserted into the rectum and guided slowly into the colon. The tube or scope transmits an image of the inside of the colon onto a video screen so its lining can be examined.
While the initial findings are exciting, the researchers proved the concept rather than validated the technique. Future validation studies will be conducted and software tools need additional development, stated Andrew Quon, who indicated that the technique might be expanded to include other tracers and anatomic regions besides the chest and colon.
"Flying Through and Flying Around a PET/CT Scan: Pilot Study and Development of 3-D Integrated 18F-FDG PET/CT for Virtual Bronchoscopy and Colonoscopy", appears in the July issue of the Journal of Nuclear Medicine, which is published by the Society of Nuclear Medicine (SNM). Besides Andrew Quon, co-authors include Sandy Napel, Christopher F. Beaulieu and Sanjiv Sam Gambhir, all with the radiology and bio-engineering departments, Molecular Imaging Programme, Stanford, University, Stanford, California.
SNM is an international scientific and professional organisation of more than 16.000 members dedicated to promoting the science, technology and practical applications of molecular and nuclear imaging to diagnose, manage and treat diseases in women, men and children. Founded more than 50 years ago, SNM continues to provide essential resources for health care practitioners and patients; publish the most prominent peer-reviewed resource in the field; sponsor research grants, fellowships and awards; host the premier annual meeting for medical imaging; and train physicians, technologists, scientists, physicists, chemists and radiopharmacists in state-of-the-art imaging procedures and advances.
SNM members have introduced and continue to explore biological and technological innovations in medicine that non-invasively investigate the molecular basis of diseases, benefiting countless generations of patients. Links to videos of Stanford University's "fly through" and "flying around" PET/CT scans may be viewed on SNM's Web site for the Journal of Nuclear Medicine.

PCA of the world
Following on from my last blog entry, in which I posted a PCA of West Eurasia, below is a PCA of the world. The outcome obviously looks very different, and that's because here the positions of the samples are determined by genetic clines that dominate the globe, and these are different from those that dominate West Eurasia. To view a much larger and detailed version of the image below, click on it. Individual IDs are shown in the PDF here.

Principal component analysis (PCA) of West Eurasia
In the past I've done MDS and SPA analyses of West Eurasia, but below is a PCA. Anorther version with individual IDs is available here. The first eigenvector is a reflection of the genetic cline that runs from Northern Europe to the Middle East, with Finns being the most Northern European and Saudis and some Bedouin the most Middle Eastern. Mediterranean ancestry defines the second eigenvector, with Sardinians being the most Mediterranean, and the Mari of the Volga-Ural region the least.

Moorjani et al. on recent population mixture in India
Despite some claims to the contrary across the web today, there's really nothing new or controversial about this Moorjani et al. paper, considering all of the non-academic data available online on South Asian genome-wide and Y-chromosome genetic structure. In fact, I think the authors were way too cautious and diplomatic in their assessment of the post-Neolithic population history of the region.
It is also important to emphasize what our study has not shown. Although we have documented evidence for mixture in India between about 1,900 and 4,200 years BP, this does not imply migration from West Eurasia into India during this time. On the contrary, a recent study that searched for West Eurasian groups most closely related to the ANI ancestors of Indians failed to find any evidence for shared ancestry between the ANI and groups in West Eurasia within the past 12,500 years3 (although it is possible that with further sampling and new methods such relatedness might be detected). An alternative possibility that is also consistent with our data is that the ANI and ASI were both living in or near South Asia for a substantial period prior to their mixture. Such a pattern has been documented elsewhere; for example, ancient DNA studies of northern Europeans have shown that Neolithic farmers originating in Western Asia migrated to Europe about 7,500 years BP but did not mix with local hunter gatherers until thousands of years later to form the present-day populations of northern Europe.15, 16, 44 and 45Here's my non-diplomatic assessment of the data presented in the paper: South Asia has seen multiple waves of population movements from West and Central Asia since the Neolithic, including the Indo-Aryan invasion during the Bronze Age, which reshaped the genetic structure of the region in a remarkable way. Indeed, the Aryan invasion introduced into South Asia one of the most common Y-chromosome lineages there today: R1a-Z93 or R1a1a1b2*. Obviously, scientists working on the problem of the peopling of South Asia really need to become aware of this marker, and in particular its very close relationship to the Northern and Eastern European-specific R1a-Z283.

GAH! I just had the ickiest experience while pumping and I'm hoping you ladies can advise me on what to do.
For a couple of weeks now I've had some cuts around the left nipple. I'm not sure what they're from, the only thing I can think of is DS's many teeth (he's 9 mos.) scraping me. It really hurts to latch on that side. This has happened before and usually once he gets nursing the pain subsides, and eventually the cut heals and I'm fine. But these cuts just keep showing up and the pain sticks around through the whole nursing session. Pumping is painful as well.
Well, today I was pumping for his daycare bottles and happily working away on my iPad. There was the usual pain when I first started pumping but I gradually didn't notice it. At 19 minutes of pumping I looked down in horror to see a blood red bottle of milk. It freaked me out - there was a LOT of blood in that milk. It wasn't just pink, it was RED. I had to dump it all.
When I dumped it it looked like there might have been a clot, and I notice that my left side is not sore at all now. I'm not bleeding from any of the cuts after taking the pump off, though there is one small open red cut. I assume the pump is drawing blood really harshly out of this small cut.
How do I handle this? I keep putting lanolin on the cuts but they just aren't healing, and I'm afraid when I pump again in a couple of hours I'm going to get another bottle full of blood. My ability to keep up with daycare bottles is already difficult, so every drop is priceless, and I'm so afraid I'll have to dump another bottle.
Any helpful advice?

Hungarian literature
Hungarian literature: Until the 19th cent. Latin was Hungary's literary language. The Funeral Oration (c.1230) is the oldest surviving work in Magyar; some 14th and 15th cent. chronicles also exist. The Reformation prompted various translations of the Bible. The poets Bálint Balassa (late 16th cent.) and Miklós Zrinyi and István Gyöngyössi (17th cent.) were succeeded in the 18th cent. by Vitéz Mihály Csokonai and Ferenc Faludi. In the last quarter of the same century, Hungarian literature was given fresh life with the work of György Bessenyei, while Ferenc Kazinczy led a reform of the Hungarian language. The establishment of a national theater and the founding in 1825 of the Hungarian Academy of Science assured the development of a national literature. The leading literary figures in the 19th cent. were the poets Károly Kisfaludy (also a noted dramatist), his brother Sándor, János Arany, Mihály Vörösmarty, and Sándor Petőfi, and the novelist Mór Jókai. Endre Ady and Attila József were the outstanding early 20th cent. poets; the dramatists Ferenc Herczeg and Ferenc Molnár achieved international fame.
Between the two World Wars, novelists were divided into three groups—the Horthy regime defenders; the Populists, who sought improvement of the peasants' lot; and the Communists. The most eminent Populist was László Németh. After World War II, Hungarian literature fell under Soviet influence, and the Communist party exercised rigid control over writing and publishing. Writers who adhered to the Soviet doctrine of socialist realism included the poet György Somlyó and the prose writers Géza Hegedűs and József Darvas. Diverging from this doctrine were the poets László Mécs, who was published only outside Hungary, and Gyorgy Faludy, who was imprisoned for three years before fleeing the country, and the novelist Tibor Déry, who was also imprisoned for his nonconformity. The revolt of Oct., 1956, whose participants included a number of prominent writers, was followed by a gradual easing of censorship; with the collapse of the Communist regime, censorship ended.

Cystometric study measures the amount of fluid in the bladder when you first feel the need to urinate, when you are able to sense fullness, and when your bladder is completely full.
Alternative Names
CMG; Cystometrogram
How the test is performed
You will be asked to urinate (void). The following will be recorded:
The time it takes you to begin urinating
The size, force, and continuity of your urinary stream
The amount of urine
How long it took you to empty your bladder
Any straining, hesitancy, or dribbling that occurred
You lie down, and a thin, flexible tube (catheter) is gently placed in your bladder. The catheter measures any urine left in the bladder. A smaller catheter is then placed in your rectum. Measuring electrodes are placed near the rectum.
Next, heat sensation is measured. Room-temperature salt-water (saline) solution is placed into the bladder. This is followed by warm water. You will tell the health care provider what, if any, sensations you feel. The water is then drained from the bladder.
A tube used to monitor bladder pressure (cystometer) is attached to the catheter. Water or carbon dioxide gas flows into the bladder at a controlled rate. You will be asked to tell the health care provider when you first feel the need to urinate.
You may be asked to cough or push so that the health care provider can check for urine leakage. When your bladder is full, you will be told to urinate. The pressure of your urine flow will be recorded.
Your bladder is again drained of any urine or water, and the catheter is removed.
In some cases, x-rays are taken during the test. This is called videourodynamics.
How to prepare for the test
No special preparations are needed for this test.
For infants and children, preparation depends on the child's age, past experiences, and level of trust. For general information regarding how you can prepare your child, see the following topics:
Preschooler test or procedure preparation(3 to 6 years) School age test or procedure preparation(6 to 12 years) Adolescent test or procedure preparation(12 to 18 years)
How the test will feel
There is some discomfort associated with this test. You may experience:
Bladder filling
Urgent need to urinate
Why the test is performed
The test will help determine the cause of bladder voiding dysfunction.
Normal Values
Normal values vary and should be discussed with your health care provider.
What abnormal results mean
Abnormal results may be due to:
Enlarged prostate
Multiple sclerosis
Overactive bladder
Reduced bladder capacity
Spinal cord injury
Urinary tract infection
What the risks are
There is a slight risk of urinary tract infection and
Special considerations
This test should not be done if you have a known urinary tract infection. Existing infection increases the possibility of false test results. The test itself increases the possibility of spreading the infection.

In commenting on "Who Holds the Copyright" Michael Hiat, CG noted that it seemed like an implied work for hire to have someone snap your photo with your camera. This was definitely part of my thought process, but…. There are many professional genealogists out there that believe they own the copyright of the work they do for clients. The law agrees. Without a contract stating otherwise, anything written by the researcher can only be used with their consent. The facts they dig up can of course be shared, they are facts. But the actual report is another matter, and many have statements on the report stating it is not to be shared.
I am interested in comments from researchers, clients, and potential clients on the issue of works for hire. I would also like to post copies of contracts that deal with the copyright issue up front (we can leave out any names and specific details. If you are willing to share, please send to firstname.lastname@example.com)
Results of Last Poll— 55.5% of respondents thought the picture taker owned copyright of the picture. 44.5% thought the camera owner owned the copyright, no one was still confused. Take the new poll, who owns the copyright when a genealogist is paid to do research for a client?
