LETTER | Don't rob Peter to pay Paul for levy
January 25, 2013 · 2:49 PM
I have tried to remain mum on the upcoming South Kitsap School Levy, a four-year renewal for maintenance and operations.
Currently, we pay approximately $636 for a $200,000 home, (for school tax) in addition to library, state, city, this and that, almost $3,000/year. This renewal calls for an estimated $120 per year increase, or $10/month.
Call me the "Oger" on the playground. I have to vote "NO!"
Along with increases in our federal taxes, increases of gas taxes, bridge tolls, food costs, homeowner insurance policies, movie ticket price increases, property tax increases (I still don't understand how homes that have lost values continue to see property taxes go up!)…etc. Eventually there is no more to give. (While the media reports jobless rates continue downward, there are many that are still unemployed. People on Welfare and food stamps are up! Families are gasping for air.)
This is a maintenance levy. For roof repairs or replacements. Fire alarms or flooring. Sidney Glen needs a roof repair? That is a "fairly new" school. The roof is barely 20 years old — isn't it tile?
"For the Kids, Because They Matter" ...great. I am all for education. But, new computers, chalkboards, toilet tissue rolls, some things can wait.
As we pay higher taxes and higher everything, Who is going to repair our roof? When we need new flooring, who can we count on to replace our floor?
Our kids are grown. Thank you to those that helped pay for their education. Remember, we paid as well and continue to pay. It does take a village.
I suppose my point is, when Peter wants to retire, and Paul keeps asking for more, who will help Peter because Paul has taken what Peter had hoped to have?
Sorry, but I'm a NO vote. I want my Peter to retire.

Gainesville, FL (Sports Network) - Jeff Driskel registered four touchdowns on limited throws, and the third-ranked Florida Gators thumped the No. 9 South Carolina Gamecocks, 44-11, in a critical SEC clash.
The Gators (7-0, 6-0 SEC) were an opportunistic bunch in the first half. Following the break, they were downright demonstrative. And their performance on Saturday has them in the driver's seat for the Eastern Division title.
Driskel finished with just 93 yards on 11-of-16 passing for Florida, which led 21-6 at halftime despite accruing only 29 yards of total offense. The difference-maker was the Gators recovering a trio of fumbles, each resulting in a touchdown.

Why are you assuming he doesn't know what it means? It's equally likely he does know, and doesn't care.

If my original two-way radio charger is a NiCD charger, can I use a different chemistry charger?
That would depend on both your charger and radio. A lot of chargers will charge NiMH chargers. However, even if your charger will do this, your radio might not. It is best in these situations, to check your user manual or contact the manufacture to find out the technical specs of your model.
What kind of shelf life does my two-way radio charger have?
If you store your charger properly, meaning in a dry, cool (not cold) place, your charger can have a 1 to 2 year shelf-life. A good temperature to store your chargers at would be between 55°F and 75°F or 12.7°C – 23.8°C.
My two-way radio is not powering on, even though my charger is fully charged, what can I do?
There are a few reasons why this could be happening. The first and simplest reason for this could be that the contacts between your charger and unit are not making proper contact. To solve this situation, there are a couple of things you can try; first is to take a pencil eraser and clean up the contacts on both pieces. You can also do this using a cotton swab and rubbing alcohol. Another thing to try is to check the contacts on both and make sure that none of them are bent. If they are you can gently try to straighten them out. However, PLEASE be careful if doing this, because these contacts can break easily if too much force is exerted. Another common reason would be a loose wire. In a situation, like this, unless you are very well trained at fixing electronics, you should see a professional repair person.

Hear the words "company car" and you think, standard office issue. Six cylinders. Four doors. Paint colour dictated by resale value. Maybe, if you're a manager, a sunroof.
Unless you work for the Dymon Group of companies. At this Ottawa concern, the employee rides are Toyota Prius gas-electric hybrids and full-electric Chevrolet Volts, all brightly wrapped in the corporate colours.
And for the executive suite ... sweet! An exotic Tesla Motors electric roadster and now a high-powered Tesla Model S luxury sedan. At Dymon, operator of a rapidly expanding chain of high-end self-storage centres – a concept it pretty much invented – the alternate-fuel vehicles are a public proclamation of a corporation-wide emphasis on the environment.
Thus the roadster bears the logo of Dymon Power, the division that sells electricity from solar panels atop company buildings to the Ontario grid. (Dymon says it will stick with solar even if the province's feed-in tariff program ends.)
"We take it to all of our trade shows, and it's really a magnet for people," senior vice-president Steve Creighton says of the open-top yellow two-seater.
There's no company branding on the jet-black Model S that just joined the fleet, but it's another attention-getter.
The sleek sedan was designed by Franz von Holzhausen, whose earlier credits include the Pontiac Solstice. Its fluid but forceful lines spur comparisons to the Jaguar XF and Maserati's delightfully named Quattroporte, and even to Ford's bold Fusion.
But while those models are gas-powered (the Ford has a hybrid variant), the Model S was designed from pavement up as a pure electric car. In place of a fuel filler it has a socket to connect household current – 110-volt will work, but Tesla recommends a special 240-volt circuit – to the car's onboard charger.
Tesla could be the most exciting automotive development to come out of California since the custom craze of the 1950s. Named for Serbian-American inventor Nikola Tesla, the company was founded in Silicon Valley by PayPal's Elon Musk, now Tesla Motor's chief executive, and other technology investors. It introduced its roadster, based on the Lotus Elise, in 2008.
The Model S arrived in June 2012 in the United States and reached Canada in November with the opening of a Tesla retail store in Toronto's Yorkdale Shopping Centre.
While Tesla Motors doesn't disclose sales by region, "the reaction in Canada has been phenomenal," communications manager Shanna Hendriks reports from Palo Alto.
The Yorkdale outlet "is one of our most heavily trafficked stores," she adds with more than a trace of national pride. Hendricks grew up in Ottawa and Perth.
The S starts at $67,100 (before an Ontario incentive of $8,500) with a 40 kWh battery Tesla says will allow a range of up to 257 kilometres between charges. A 60 kWh model for $77,800 offers a maximum 370 km, and an 85 kWh version for $88,500 promises up to 480 km per charge. Even the base Model will do 0-100 km/h in a brisk 6.5 seconds, according to the manufacturer's figures. But for those with the desire and budget for more, the 85kWh model can be ordered in a $103,000 Performance trim that drops that time to a supercar-territory 4.4 seconds.
Finally, early adopters could spend still more for the limited edition Signature S, with active air suspension, perforated Nappa leather and, should they desire, the Performance model's high-performance inverter that bumps the rated output to 416 horsepower. The Dymon Group ordered a pair of those top-end models in black and white, but has since decided to sell the white one (asking price: $125,000).
Because the battery tray is under the floor, you sit higher in the Model S than you might expect. The battery dimensions might also explain the car's substantial width: at 1,963 millimetres, it's broader than a Jeep Grand Cherokee.
But the floor is flat, for limo-like interior space (though tall backseat passengers might bump their heads on the roof), and because the electric motor nestles between the rear wheels, there's abundant cargo space both in the trunk and even in a front compartment below the hood. So big is the rear space, Tesla offers a pair of optional, station wagon-style rear-facing seats.
Considering Tesla's tech-sector roots, its no surprise that most functions in the Model S are controlled by a dash-mounted touch screen. What does surprise, however, especially for anyone who has fussed with the complicated screens in other cars, is how well this one works. It's a huge 17 inches, meaning you can quickly see the correct tabs to adjust temperature and ventilation settings, and the processes for tailoring suspension and regenerative braking settings to your liking are simple and logical.
The Model S is silent at "idle," but then so are other luxury cars. Hit the accelerator and you hear a pleasantly restrained hum and feel an immediate, and just as pleasant, rush of power. In our short ride on city streets we avoided anything that would have attracted the authorities, but we still drew the attention of the occupants of a handsome Lexus LS 400, who drew alongside and started clicking with their camera phones.
Electric cars have been around since the start of the auto era, but have never had significant sales. Rising oil prices and increasing environmental worries could change that – carbon can be consumed in the generation of electricity, it's true, but not to the same degree as in combustion engines – but buyers must also weigh initial and resale costs in any decision to swear off gas pumps.
Tesla's Elon Musk, however, is intent on making electricity viable for the automotive mainstream, both through harnessing economies of scale and through the same sort of steady, incremental improvements in technology that have made gas engines so much more efficient. As part of his strategy, he's installing solar-powered highway "Supercharger" stations that will allow travellers to refuel their electric cars in 30 to 60 minutes.
Coming next from Tesla Motors is the Model X, a crossover wagon with fold-up "Falcon-wing" doors that Shanna Hendriks says will arrive in 2014. To follow, probably in 2015 or 2016, will be a midsized electric sedan the company says will be the most affordable Tesla yet and the car it believes will establish it as a major automaker.
It might even be your next company car.

It was an absolute disgrace."
—Republican Rep. Peter King • Condemning House Republicans for refusing to vote on a post-Sandy disaster relief bill that was approved by the Senate last week. The bill would have allocated roughly $60.4 billion in disaster relief funding for the areas in New York and New Jersey that were devastated by Sandy last year. House Republicans have responded to the criticism with assurances that a vote is coming in the 113th Congress, and a denial that there is any immediate need for such funding. sourceRock rock rockaway beach

31 Senate Republicans Opposed Sandy Relief After Supporting Disaster Aid For Home States | ThinkProgress
thinkprogress.orgWhen the Senate passed the long-delayed $50.5 billion Hurricane Sandy relief package Monday, 36 Republicans voted against the bill. But of the 32 no-votes from Senators who are not brand-new members, at least 31 came from Republicans who had previously supported emergency aid efforts following disasters in their own states.
Most incredible among the no voters were Senators Kelly Ayotte (R-NH) and Pat Toomey (R-PA). Those two had not just backed disaster aid in the past — they actually sought disaster aid for their own states for relief from Hurricane Sandy. And Sen. John Boozman (R-AR) endorsed disaster relief for snow storms damages in Arkansas just four days before casting his "nay" vote.
The "hypocritical" list includes:
1. Kelly Ayotte (R-NH): Requested disaster aid after Hurricane Sandy.
2. John Barrasso (R-WY), Republican Policy Committee Chair: Requested disaster aid after flooding.
3. Roy Blunt (R-MO), Republican Conference Vice Chair: Demanded the Senate be called back from recess to pass disaster aid during a drought and boasts: "When a disaster surpasses the ability of states and communities to rebuild, Senator Blunt believes the federal government should prioritize spending to help the people whose lives and livelihoods are impacted. During his time in the Senate, he has fought tirelessly to ensure that Missouri gets its fair share of those federal resources specifically dedicated to disaster recovery."
4. John Boozman (R-AR): Requested disaster aid after snow storms in January 2013.
5. Richard Burr (R-NC): Requested disaster aid after severe storms.
6. Saxby Chambliss (R-GA): Requested disaster aid after flooding.
7. Dan Coats (R-IN): Requested disaster aid after tornadoes.
8. Tom Coburn (R-OK): Requested disaster aid after winter storms and for extreme drought.
9. Bob Corker (R-TN): Requested disaster aid after flooding and asked for supplemental emergency flood relief.
10. John Cornyn (R-TX), Republican Minority Whip: Demanded drought relief aid and requested disaster aid for wildfires.
11. Mike Crapo (R-ID): Boasted of obtaining a FEMA fire safety grant and pushed for a bill providing emergency drought relief.
12. Mike Enzi (R-WY): Requested disaster relief after flooding.
13. Lindsey Graham (R-SC): Requested disaster relief after freezing and boasted of obtaining emergency drought relief.
14. Chuck Grassley (R-IA): Requested disaster relief after severe hail storms.
15. Orrin Hatch (R-UT): Requested disaster relief after flooding.
16. James Inhofe (R-OK): Boasted of obtaining disaster relief after severe storms and drought.
17. Johnny Isakson (R-GA): Requested disaster aid after flooding.
18. Mike Johanns (R-NE): Requested disaster relief after flooding and blasted Democrats for "inaction on disaster relief" for drought and wildfires.
19. Ron Johnson (R-WI): Requested disaster relief after a blizzard.
20. Mark Kirk (R-IL): Appealed after FEMA denied assistance following severe storms and tornadoes.
21. Mike Lee (R-UT): After calling federal disaster relief unconstitutional, endorsed relief aid after flooding in Utah.
22. John McCain (R-AZ): Endorsed disaster relief after flooding.
23. Mitch McConnell (R-KY), Republican Minority Leader: Requested disaster relief during a drought and after tornadoes.
24. Jerry Moran (R-KS): Requested disaster relief after tornadoes.
25. Rand Paul (R-KY): Requested disaster relief during a drought and after tornadoes.
26. Rob Portman (R-OH): Endorsed disaster relief during a drought and after storms.
27. Pat Roberts (R-KS): Boasted of obtaining disaster relief after drought and wildfires and criticized the Bush administration for inadequate emergency relief after a blizzard.
28. Marco Rubio (R-FL): Requested disaster relief after severe freezing.
29. Jeff Sessions (R-AL): Requested disaster relief after tornadoes and during a drought.
30. John Thune (R-SD), Republican Conference Chair: Requested disaster relief after flooding and snow storms.
31. Pat Toomey (R-PA): Requested disaster relief for Hurricane Sandy before it even hit landfall.Not one of the opponents has co-sponsored Sen. Harry Reid's (D-NV) "Extreme Weather Prevention and Resilience Act" which would encourage Congress to "prepare and protect communities from extreme weather, sea-level rise, drought, flooding, wildfire, and other changing conditions exacerbated by carbon pollution" and "reducing pollution, promoting the use of clean energy sources, and improving energy efficiency."
ThinkProgrss previously reported that at least 37 House Republicans who opposed Sandy relief had also supported disaster aid for their home states.
Vote all these morons out in 2014, 2016, or 2018!

Fascinating look at how the Muslims deal with each other. This is a piece on the Syrian death squads sent by their own people to deal with their own people. The organization is called the Shabiha in Syria. But this phenomenon exists widely in the Muslim world and is not unique to Syria. Check this out:
From news article: Nine days ago, 108 people were butchered by the Shabiha in the town of Houla. The pro-Assad thugs went through the village, house to house, and slit the throats of anyone they came across – including 49 children. Exactly a week later, the Shabiha pulled 12 factory workers off a bus in the town of Qusayr, 40 miles to the south; tied their hands behind their backs, and shot them in the head.
The world is learning just how bloodthirsty the Shabiha can be. But inside Syria, their capacity for hideous brutality has long been known.
"Even before the revolution, any time there was unrest they would go out into the streets and stop it for the government," said Selma, who comes from a prominent Alawite family – a Shia Muslim sect, into which the Assad family was born, and to which almost all of the Shabiha belong. Her cousins are Shabiha.
"They would just break people's arms and legs. They would fight for Bashar to the death. It is natural – they have to defend their sect."
Her cousins wore civilian clothes, she explained – "then the television can say that these are just civilians who love Bashar."
"It is something in their religion that moves them. And state media is terrifying them that terrorists will kill them if Bashar falls from power," he said.
"The army gave my friend a gun, he started using it to shoot at the people in the demonstrations. The security forces gave him a special sense of identity."

I supose i could look up through the sump via the sump plug too. not sure Quarry motors would let me do that on thier premises though.
do you think there is any merit in having an oil sample analyzed, we use a company at work called scientific services who do gearbox oil sampling for us.
Thanks for your continued support.

They seem to have a good reputation normally
exdos wrote:I'm sorry to hear your trouble. I had a catastrophic bearing shell failure on my S54 MC 2 years ago and the noise sounds like those "clackers" toys (as seen in the 1970s) when it starts and is obviously related to the revs.
I've also witnessed a spark-plug failure on another S50 MC and heard of a few other spark-plug failures too. If you've been lucky, the bit's will have blown out of the cylinder and they'll be safely trapped in front of the cat. You can check the affected cylinder and piston for damage with an endoscope and also see if the bits from the spark plug have exited the cylinder. A compression test is easy to do and will show if the affected cylinder has lost compression by comparison to the other cylinders.
If you can eliminate damage from the cylinder, then get the car up in the air and follow 6 pot Roadsters advice of "Get a long metal bar and use it as a listening stick, holding one end to the engine block as close to each bearing as you can actually hear the bearing (it also works for camshaft lobes and water pumps) a healthy bearing should just sound like an engineering whirring noise and a worn one will of course 'clack'." If you then need to investigate further, drop the sump and take a look at the bearing shells, with the view to preventive replacement if you find them to be OK, but if they're damaged then you need to assess the state of the crankshaft etc. and you can work out your options of repair or replacement.
freelandm wrote:Hi Desiro
Sorry to hear this it has happened to me following an oil change unscheduled as well.,mine made the noise when the motor got 3-4k on it and it turned out to be number 5 bearing that had failed no other damage apart from 600 quid to my pocket for re shelling etc.
I see you are only down the road if you need a 2nd opinion go and see the boys at Bavarian motor warehouse in Huddersfield cannot recommend enough, they did my car and diagnosed in about 10th seconds.
Good luck with it.
gookah wrote:ok, we have seen the physical damage, now what we want to know is, what the real 'damage' was .
pingu wrote:No damage to the bore or cyl head?
The bit of debris looks bigger than the chip out of the piston.
If I had the engine that stripped, I would have balanced all the components +/- 1g (BMW tolerance is +/- 5g). Do Geoff Steel offer that service? I know they do performance upgrades as I have them bookmarked ready for a performance clutch next year.
c_w wrote:So just to clarify was the original diagnosis wrong (and also the thread title)?
And the damage to the piston was caused buy the spark plug debris? (and the source of the noise?)
and new shells/bolts fitted as a precaution whilst the piston was replaced?

Lexus teases sport concept headed for Detroit auto show
Lexus will unveil a new concept car at the Detroit auto show on Jan. 9, 2012. It was designed by Calty, the company's studio in Newport Beach, Calif. Lexus says the concept showcases the new design direction of the company.
All we can see in the teaser shot is the left side of the front end. It looks to have a little LFA in the design, as well as a bit of Scion FR-S. At any rate, it looks sporty and aggressive, two things Lexus hasn't been known for until recently.
Tell us what you think of--or hope for--the concept in the Comments section below. Check back at autoweek.com closer to the Detroit show for more details.

Once the heart of the mighty Khmer empire, Cambodia is home to Angkor Wat, one of the world's most magnificent sights.
Located at the border of Thailand, Vietnam and Laos, Cambodia has an inspiring history and is gifted with a sublime landscape of mountains, waterfalls and winding rivers.
Formerly known as Kampuchea, its name is derived from the Sanskrit name "Kambujadesa". With a long history dating back to the first century AD, the Khmer empire of Cambodia was formed by a series of small kingdoms, which flourished in the province of Siem Reap where Angkor Wat lies today.
As Cambodia's top tourist site, the ancient temples of Angkor Wat are truly a sight to behold. Dubbed the "mother of all temples", it is the largest religious monument in the world. The Bayon stone faces, intricate wall sculptures and mysterious ruins are unrivalled in beauty and grandeur.
Cambodia, however, is more than its temples. Phnom Penh is the country's buzzing capital, located along a gorgeous riverside with a lively wining and dining scene, while South Cambodia is home to secluded islands, laidback resorts and charming beaches.
Adventurous visitors will also find themselves experiencing the wildlife and tropical wildernes of eastern Cambodia, with its waterfalls, national parks, volcanic craters, and rare freshwater dolphins.

Fourteenth-ranked Kansas delivered that statement Monday night with an 83-62 victory over the 10th-ranked Wildcats at Allen Fieldhouse.
The Jayhawks (20-4, 8-3 Big 12) beat their instate rival for 46th time in 49 games in the series. Kansas snapped a three-game losing streak and pulled into a tie for first place in the conference standings with Kansas State (19-5, 8-3). Oklahoma State sits in third place at 7-3.
"It is going to be more difficult to win the league than it ever has been with where we still have to go and the games that we have remaining, but we're in the game," Kansas coach Bill Self said.
Playing a rival on national television was the perfect remedy for the Jayhawks, who were reeling from consecutive losses to Oklahoma State, TCU and Oklahoma. Freshman Ben McLemore, who was celebrating his 20th birthday, led the way with 30 points on 9-of-13 shooting. He hit six 3-pointers before checking out to a raucous ovation.
"I felt like my teammates definitely got me in the zone, especially from 3, finding me on the wing and just creating," McLemore said. "They were just getting me open, and it was great.
"Last week was a bad week, but this is a new week for us."
Center Jeff Withey added 17 points and 10 rebounds for the Jayhawks, and forward Kevin Young scored 13.
Rodney McGruder led Kansas State with 20 points and six rebounds, and Angel Rodriguez added 17 points.
"The only disappointing thing was our defense, our toughness and our discipline were not there today," Kansas State coach Bruce Weber said. "I thought we would have competed a little better. It should have been more of a game."

Зарегистрироваться"... there is definitely something special about the bond we have with dogs. Their ability to read our communicative gestures makes them seem "in tune" with us. And their attentiveness to our every move can't help but make us feel special. There is one study that shows that dogs would prefer to spend time with humans than their own species, which is unusual for an animal. Every dog owner is familiar with that rise in spirits as a thumping tail greets you at the door, and from the enthusiasm dogs have for us, it's hard to believe the feeling isn't mutual."
—Dog behavioral scientist Brian Hare
I think "dog behavioral scientist" is probably in the running for coolest job of all time. Humans and dogs have evolved hand in hand, with our ancestors selecting (on purpose and accidentally) the particular traits in these descendants of wolves that helped our tribes and villages hunt, stay safe, and be happy. No other species is so deeply in tune with what we want.
Brian Hare has also developed an online program called Dognition. For a small fee, you get a set of games to test your dog's particular cognitive talents, helping to advance dog science while getting to know your best friend's mind that much better.
Check out the full interview with Brian Hare: The Brilliance of the Dog Mind at Scientific American
If you really want to dig into the mind of your drooly companion, Brian and his co-researcher wroteL The Genius of Dogs.
Brain frontal lobes not sole centre of human intelligence
Human intelligence cannot be explained by the size of the brain's frontal lobes, say researchers.
Research into the comparative size of the frontal lobes in humans and other species has determined that they are not - as previously thought - disproportionately enlarged relative to other areas of the brain, according to the most accurate and conclusive study of this area of the brain.
It concludes that the size of our frontal lobes cannot solely account for humans' superior cognitive abilities.
The study by Durham and Reading universities suggests that supposedly more 'primitive' areas, such as the cerebellum, were equally important in the expansion of the human brain. These areas may therefore play unexpectedly important roles in human cognition and its disorders, such as autism and dyslexia, say the researchers.
The study is published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (PNAS) today.
The frontal lobes are an area in the brain of mammals located at the front of each cerebral hemisphere, and are thought to be critical for advanced intelligence.
Lead author Professor Robert Barton from the Department of Anthropology at Durham University, said: "Probably the most widespread assumption about how the human brain evolved is that size increase was concentrated in the frontal lobes.
"It has been thought that frontal lobe expansion was particularly crucial to the development of modern human behaviour, thought and language, and that it is our bulging frontal lobes that truly make us human. We show that this is untrue: human frontal lobes are exactly the size expected for a non-human brain scaled up to human size.
"This means that areas traditionally considered to be more primitive were just as important during our evolution. These other areas should now get more attention. In fact there is already some evidence that damage to the cerebellum, for example, is a factor in disorders such as autism and dyslexia."
The scientists argue that many of our high-level abilities are carried out by more extensive brain networks linking many different areas of the brain. They suggest it may be the structure of these extended networks more than the size of any isolated brain region that is critical for cognitive functioning.
Previously, various studies have been conducted to try and establish whether humans' frontal lobes are disproportionately enlarged compared to their size in other primates such as apes and monkeys. They have resulted in a confused picture with use of different methods and measurements leading to inconsistent findings.
The Durham and Reading researchers, funded by The Leverhulme Trust, analysed data sets from previous animal and human studies using phylogenetic, or 'evolutionary family tree', methods, and found consistent results across all their data. They used a new method to look at the speed with which evolutionary change occurred, concluding that the frontal lobes did not evolve especially fast along the human lineage after it split from the chimpanzee lineage.
This is finally canon: Animals conscious say leading neuroscientists
mindhacks.comvia the always wonderful MindHacks:
A group of leading neuroscientists has used a conference at Cambridge University to make an official declaration recognising consciousness in animals.
The declaration was made at the Francis Crick Memorial Conference and signed by some of the leading lights in consciousness research, including Christof Koch and David Edelman.
The main part of the declaration reads:
We declare the following: "The absence of a neocortex does not appear to preclude an organism from experiencing affective states. Convergent evidence indicates that non-human animals have the neuroanatomical, neurochemical, and neurophysiological substrates of conscious states along with the capacity to exhibit intentional behaviors. Consequently, the weight of evidence indicates that humans are not unique in possessing the neurological substrates that generate consciousness. Non- human animals, including all mammals and birds, and many other creatures, including octopuses, also possess these neurological substrates."
While it feels like a "well, duh" moment, it does remove the eons-old notion that "consciousness" comes from the higher cortex. And it does/could have implications on our understanding of the universality of memory, emotion, and self-awareness.
"The next time we want to run the race toward closure, to be the first to tweet or post or report, to follow the first thing we hear because it seems so believable, we'd do well to consider the lessons of Boston….The need for cognitive closure is a powerful force. But a need is neither a mandate nor an excuse."
—Maria Konnikova explains why human beings quickly seek closure in a crisis, and what we can learn from the misinformation that plagued professional news outlets during the Boston bombingsTrends in Cognitive Sciences | Uncovering the genetic underpinnings of cognition
cell.comNo one today can ignore the genetic approach to cognition and behavior, given the huge achievements of the Human Genome Project. The initial impact of studies of individual differences in genetic polymorphisms, such as the catechol-O-methyl transferase (COMT) gene, and their relationship to such core cognitive concepts as working memory (in this case via its modulation by prefrontal dopamine [1]) has been immense, catching the imagination of many cognitive neuroscientists. Here is a way, for example, to evaluate the effect of individual differences in neurotransmitter function without the need to administer drugs. Alternatively, possible heterogeneity in behavioral performance or patterns of neural network activation revealed through functional neuroimaging, may be resolved by taking into account genetic factors.
Taken together, the contributions in this special issue address the genetic underpinnings of key aspects of cognition, such as memory, intelligence, reward processing, as well as emotion and personality, in the context of both healthy populations and in key disorders, such as schizophrenia, autism, and addiction. Collectively, the articles discuss evidence from a variety of perspectives and different approaches, including twin, linkage, candidate gene, genome-wide association, imaging genetics, gene×environment interaction, and gene expression studies, providing insight into the strengths and challenges for each approach.

A good chance to watch Tigers pitcher Armando Galarraga tonight as he starts for Venezuela against the United States at 8:00 pm on ESPN.
Bonderman after last night's game: "I'll be sore because of the effort I put in. But I'll be fine in five days." He threw 29 pitches and he should be rested up and recovered in 5 days. What a life these pitchers have!
havn't seen any spring training games..... great for my picking for fantasy huh.... but word out was that sheffield looked to be doing well and back to his old form?
Tigers release Sheffield, who's 1 HR away from 500 over paid for his production and with the trade they made yesterday there looking to get younger and faster in the outfield.
Hate to say i told u so...But Im 45, so I know how a 41 yr old body feels. Was stupid to sign him in the first place. Now Marcus Thames?Jeff Larish must step up.
they got an outfielder yesterday that has lots of speed.... and will allow them to move guillen to dh, sounds like him in the outfield wasn't going to work... with the young outfielders that have had chances in short duty the last couple years hopefully one of them is ready to take the challenge and make the job there own
Why I remain on this forum is beyond me. The humour is not even of junior high quality. More like third grade. And you all act like it. I try to bring a sense of gravitas and perspective to the forum, but it obviously has no effect on the quality of the posts. So much learning needed, and I have so little time.

Hey there. I'm Trico.
This is a Homestuck blog, more specifically an Intermission blog. MEANING that I really like the Midnight Crew and Felt, so that's basically what you'll see here.
Now I do post drawings with lots of blood in them, usually at least once a month so DRAWING DEAD is the tag to block if you don't want to see that!
Requests are open, and if I like the request I'll get around to drawing it, or at least try to.

November 23 – Happy Birthday Aaron Small
As the 2005 season began, Brian Cashman thought he had assembled the starting pitching staff New York would need to recapture the AL pennant from Boston and help Yankee fans forget the horror of the Bronx Bombers' ALCS collapse to the hated Red Sox, the previous postseason. The Yankee GM had traded for Randy Johnson and signed Carl Pavano during that offseason and was hoping those two veterans would combine with Mike Mussina and Kevin Brown to give New York the type of overpowering rotation a team needed to make it to the World Series. That did not happen. Johnson was good but not great, ditto for Mussina and both Brown and Pavano missed most of that season due to injuries. The Yankees were forced to improvise with their starting pitching and they did so by bringing up Chien-Ming Wang from their farm system, trading for a Pittsburgh starter named Shawn Chacon and using a free agent pitcher they had signed the previous January named Aaron Small. Wang and Chacon won 15 games between them but it was Small's performance that year that won the AL East Division flag for Joe Torre's squad. The tall right hander won all ten of his decisions including five big wins in September, giving up just 3.2 runs every nine innings he pitched. Small was a high school teammate of Jason Giambi in Covina, CA. That great performance in 2005 earned him a million dollar contract from New York in 2006 but he would never win another big league game. After losing his third straight decision in 2006, he was sent down to Columbus, where he spent the rest of that year. He ended up retiring after that season with a 25-13 record and four saves during his nine years of big league pitching.
Today is also the birthday of this former Yankee pitcher and this one-time Yankee first base prospect.
