Tulsa Men's Soccer Team Announces Spring Schedule
March 4, 2014
Tulsa, Oklahoma - The Tulsa men's soccer team announced the 2014 spring schedule, which features four of the five contests at the Hurricane Soccer and Track Stadium.
"This is our best spring schedule for a number of reasons," Head Coach Tom McIntosh said. "First, we are playing five-straight weekends, which we've never done before. In the past it has not been consistent in terms of how we play in the fall, but playing in five back-to-back weeks help simulate a real season. It is also excellent in terms of the quality of competition, which will help us prepare for the fall, and finally we are playing later in the spring than before, which will give us a good amount of preparation time."
"I am excited about the spring. There will be great soccer in those five weeks so hopefully we can get our fans out to watch."
TU will open the spring campaign against Missouri State on March 28th at the Hurricane Stadium. The Bears fell in the Missouri Valley Conference Championship game and posted an 11-5-2 overall record this past fall.
SMU comes to town on April 5th in an American Athletic Conference preview. The Mustangs struggled last season, posting a 3-12-2 mark on the year.
TU will make the trip to St. Louis, Mo., to face Saint Louis on April 12th. The Billikens recorded a 14-5-2 overall record and fell in the Atlantic 10 Championship last season.
Tulsa returns home to host cross-town rival Oral Roberts on April 18th. The Golden Eagles were 6-8-4 a year ago and fell in the semifinals of the Summit League.
The Hurricane will close out the spring schedule against Creighton on April 27th. The Blue Jays lost in the Big East opening round, but advanced to the NCAA Championships and finished with a 9-9-2 record on the year. Creighton picked up a 2-0 win over Tulsa last fall.
2014 Tulsa Men's Soccer Spring Schedule Date Opponent Location Time March 28 Missouri State Hurricane Stadium 6:30 pm April 5 SMU Hurricane Stadium 3:00 pm April 12 Saint Louis St. Louis, Mo. 2:00 pm April 18 Oral Roberts Hurricane Stadium 6:30 pm April 27 Creighton Hurricane Stadium 1:30 pm

Home page > The Ring
Il Ring
All in a week, as Wagner intended
The Ring in seven days. Das Rheingold, Die Walküre, Siegfried and Götterdämmerung in succession. Four operas - one Prologue and three "days" - , four performances, fifteen hours of music in the long but concentrated span of the same week. Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday. A project in the spirit of Wagner, who fulfilled his dream of an integral performance of his Tetralogy in the new Festspielhaus in Bayreuth between 13 and 17 of August 1876.
In the year that brings Verdi and Wagner together in the bicentenary of their births (1813), the Teatro alla Scala is to include in its 2012-2013 season a double Tetralogy: for all true Wagnerians and opera lovers everywhere, a full immersion into the most visionary journey ever to come out of the musical theatre from Monteverdi to the present. Four different stage settings linked in a single project created by director Guy Cassiers, under the guidance of one of the greatest interpreters of Wagner, Daniel Barenboim, and with four casts of excellent Wagnerians, well-kn own to opera-goers around the world.
The Scala's connection with Wagner has solid roots, stretching back in time. On 26 of December 1898, the thirty-one-year-old Arturo Toscanini made his début in the Theatre with Die Meistersinger von Nürnberg. After that and until his move to the United States, each year alongside Aida, La Traviata, Rigoletto, Falstaff, Otello and Un Ballo in Maschera, Toscanini conducted Wagnerian titles in almost perfect proportions: Lohengrin, Tannhäuser, Tristan und Isolde, Siegfried, Die Walküre, Götterdämmerung and Die Meistersinger von Nürnberg.
Victor de Sabata from Trieste, the former Habsburg seaport, maintained the Wagnerian tradition until his death in 1967. However, according to the annals, Wagner has been conducted at the Scala by a long line of great masters of the Germanic cultural sphere: Siegfried Wagner, Franz von Hösslin, Wilhelm Furtwängler, Clemens Krauss, Herbert von Karajan.
During the twentieth century, the Scala has staged integral performances of the Tetralogy eight times in the same season: 1927 and 1928 (conducted by Ettore Panizza, an Argentinian of Italian origin), 1930 (Siegfried Wagner), 1931 (Panizza), 1938 (Clemens Krauss), 1943 (Franz von Hösslin), 1949-50 (Wilhelm Furtwängler), 1962-63 (André Cluytens).
The last time the Ring was performed in the same week (six days to be precise) was in 1938, when Clemens Krauss conducted the Munich State Opera Chorus and Orchestra.
Today, Daniel Barenboim is to take up this legacy and offer the public his interpretation of Wagner.

THOUGH you might not guess it, Finland is the diabetes capital of the world. And solving the mystery of why type 1 diabetes is so prevalent in this Nordic country could be the key to teasing out the causes of the disease.
Worldwide, the incidence of type 1 diabetes, which generally occurs in childhood, is rising by 3.4 per cent each year. People with the disease lose the ability to make insulin, the hormone which controls blood glucose levels.
Since the 1950s rates of type 1 diabetes have been higher in Finland than anywhere else. "Why it's so high in Finland really is a mystery," says Valma Harjutsalo of the National Public Health Institute in Helsinki. What's more, she has found that the rate is increasing faster than ever (The Lancet, vol 371, p 1777). Between 1980 and 2005, the incidence in Finnish children aged 14 ...

CEDAR RAPIDS, Iowa – Cast the winning ballot for the environment by recycling campaign signs the proper way.
Signs can be dropped off in the container marked "campaign signs" at City Carton Recycling, 901 Ingleside Dr. SW.
Alan Schumacher, City Carton's facility manager, said wire should be removed before recycling the signs. The wire can be recycled in the "tin" container.
Schumacher said the signs should not be placed in the blue residential recycling bins because wire can become tangled in machinery at the plant, resulting in a costly shut-down.
"It's a big safety issue," he said.
Signs are made of two different grades of plastic, Schumacher said, "and both of those grades of plastic are recyclable."

Chinese New Year in London – Kung Hei Fat Choy!
Many of us outside of China often forget that late January/early February is for something other than cursing the bitter cold and finding someone to lay you before the 14th. While there is a presence of festive tidings to ring in the Chinese New Year here in the states, I'd be lying if the extent of my celebration went beyond chowing down leftover take-out and seeing what Jackie Chan movies are available for torrenting. At least, that's what I learned from my one and only Chinese roommate in the dorms.
Our good allies and former tax-collectors from the other side of the Atlantic want their Londonites to do far better than that. The Chinese New Year celebration in London is the biggest gala outside of Asia – and it does seem much more enthralling than microwaving some old Dim Sum.
via flickr
Each year kicks off with a large parade beginning in Trafalgar Square and wrapping around – you guessed it – Chinatown. Following the parade is a plethora of live entertainment, this year featuring Hong Kong-born singer-songwriter Emmy The Great and performers from the Guangdong and Sichuan Provinces. All this starts at 10 AM and goes until 6 PM, culminating with a fireworks display that both wows and works as a nice way of telling everyone to go home. The parade is a huge crowd pleaser, attracting an estimated attendance of somewhere in the hundreds of thousands.
Not shockingly, the waves of bodies has become the event's biggest criticism over the years, and a major detractor to those who easily lose their friends. So why bother if you're not interested in being shoved around like a 12-year old who snuck up to the front of a Death Grips concert? Because everything else there is definitely worth the while.
The "Dotting of the Eye" ceremony serves as the celebration's main event, a Taoist tradition where the decorated lions and dragons are brought to life by being "dotted" (a term that sounds appropriate for certain drug circles). Responsible for dotting is President of Chinatown Stanley Tse, who awakens the beasts with suspiciously human-like feet to dance among high-flying acrobats and martial artists. It's a spectacle that occurs in many New Year's celebrations, but not very many can match the magnitude of London's event. It's performed in the middle of Trafalgar Square at noon and likely to get too crowded for comfort.
Travel Freak isn't yet in the business of looking out for the kiddies, but we do understand they're a necessary, if not unfortunate, part of some readers' lives. The Museum of London offers a variety activities to keep the younguns' occupied, including Chinese water-coloring, craft making, and interactive storytelling. They even do face painting, a perfect activity if you plan to be roared at with the ferocity of a lion or dragon with dwarfism for the rest of the day. We're not yet parents, if you haven't guessed by now.
Just like any major metropolis, London features fine sites for oriental dining. The cheekily named Opium Cocktail and Dim Sum Parlour is a recent addition to the city's trendy cuisine choices, joining the likes of Min Jiang and Kai Mayfair. Hidden behind a large jade-colored door are crafted cocktails utilizing unique ingredients like orange blossom spray and lychee wines, which pair well with their touted fresh seafood choices that includes razor clams and king prawn dim sum.
Or, if stuffing your face doesn't bring you satisfaction, the School of Wok offers a quick bite and half-hour lesson on how to cook your favorite oriental dish. Both of these restaurants are throwing special events for the occasion, though if neither of them catch your stomach's fancy, there's a good 78 Chinese restaurants around the area to choose from. Best chances are they'll be celebrating in their own way.
If dark and secluded sounds like the best antithesis to the bustle of London's crowds, then why not catch a movie? The Terracotta Film Club is celebrating the new year at the Prince Charles Cinema by showcasing Asian cinema throughout the entire month of February. The club's plan is to get a new generation of cinephiles hooked on contemporary Eastern films, ranging from new releases to a variety of nostalgic classics. A great idea to keep the festivities fresh in everyone's head and to expose films that otherwise wouldn't see the light of a projector in the UK. Oh, and their first film of choice? The 1985 Jackie Chan classic "Police Story". That is what I'm f***ing talking about.
via modestmovie.files.wordpress.com
It all happens on February 10th. If you're from London, you're probably already aware of this. For anyone else who happens to get caught in the sea of our English and Chinese friends, don't say we didn't warn you.
By the way, in correlation with the elemental zodiac, this is technically the Year of the Water Snake. Anyone who has encountered a rattler in their pool knows how sneaky those little bastards can be, so take note of who's being born in 2013. Or better yet, don't get or get anyone pregnant until April so your kid can be born in 2014 – The Year of the Wood Horse. That's um… better. I think.

Call of Juarez: Bound in Blood
Score: 8.0 / 10
Tales of the American Wild West swing between scenes of bucolic living and community building (Little House on the Prairie) to epic gunfights every day at noon and continual stage coach robberies (Unforgiven, Back to the Future: Part III), but it seems that the more violent side has been embraced by most of the world. Justice with a bullet has obscured the less sexy messages of hard work to eek out an existence, which is too bad because there's something to that particular message that jibes with the "American Dream."
Call of Juarez: Bound in Blood attempts to put the two together with a focus on family, betrayal, honor, sacrifice, and showdowns in the street. Playing as Civil War deserters Thomas and Ray, the story moves from the war-torn American
South into Mexico as the brothers attempt to locate the Lost Treasure of Cortez to rebuild their ruined estate. As most quests to secure lost treasures go, things get complicated when they run afoul of Apaches, a woman, their crazed Colonel, and a Mexican outlaw named Juarez.
The full, though compact, length of the story plays out in fewer
than 7 hours, but it makes Bound in Blood stronger because there's no attempt to draw out the proceedings.
Some of the one-off set pieces – particularly the optional ones found in the "Free World" sections not connected to the main story line – are awesome. Forests, canyons, caves, mines, dusty wooden towns – the way developer Techland has textured and painted these areas completely jibes with how the American West looks like and feels in my own imagination. Maybe the outlaws had less dynamite and shooting accurately while on horseback is nigh impossible, but the fact it takes a long time to reload any of the guns; the priest uses the word "Savages" to describe the Apaches; and the voices sound so authentically gravely and dusty that I found it hard not to begin another run through the game just to see how the story might be filled in a little bit more by playing as the other brother.
In the next few weeks I'll be playing more of the multiplayer. Honesty being the best policy, due to my Xbox Live account expiring while I was out of town last month, I've put in only enough time to say that Brothers in Blood has multiplayer.
The fact the game has multiplayer makes me wonder why there's no option to play co-op through the story. The only part when the brothers are separated is during one of the final levels, but even then both Ray and Thomas are involved in parallel events. I think about how awesome it would be to have a buddy responsible for completely different objectives in a slightly different location that affects the outcome. As it is, you play first as Thomas retrieving horses for a quick getaway then as Ray to bust out the third brother, William, to get the full picture.
Call of Juarez: Bound in Blood is one of those games that has "cult hit" written all over it – maybe it won't hit critical mass with a general audience but those that appreciate a good shooter and a well-told story should be happy. I'm in that camp for sure and I have no problem recommending Bound in Blood.

Marlins drub Stults, Padres
"Maybe late in the game, it's different ... I'm not about to let that ball fall. Then I could really have been in trouble."
Stults was his own worst enemy in the Marlins' three-run fourth, though, starting with a leadoff walk to Polanco. Derek Dietrich, Adeiny Hechavarria and Jeff Mathis followed, with Polanco scoring the 1,000th run of his career. Another walk to Ruggiano ended Stults' evening.
"I struggled with command of a lot of my pitches," said Stults. "Even the good pitches I made, they were able to put the barrel on the ball and find a lot of holes, so I give them some credit."
Venable , who vexed the Marlins with both his glove and bat in the Friday night opener, opened the fifth with a no-doubt triple over Ozuna's head in center and scored on Nick Hundley's double.
The quickness of Marlins Park also got the best of Hundley, though. Hundley broke for third on Turner's wild pitch, but the ball kicked hard and fast off the backstop to Mathis and the catcher's throw beat Hundley to the bag.
Having replaced Stults, right-hander Tim Stauffer threw two scoreless innings before Giancarlo Stanton bashed a solo homer well beyond the high fence in left, 413 feet away.

Economics is the dismal science: so say the large number of people who heap scorn on the intellectual merits of the discipline. Much of the criticism comes from 'pure' or 'proper' scientists - physicists, chemists and biologists. Now, economics certainly has its failings. But the general way in which economists approach and describe the world, and how they convey their message about it to others, carries lessons which pure scientists should learn from.
Economics has inexactitudes and vagueness built into it. The general lack of reliable data about past events makes virtually impossible the accurate measurement of even the most basic economic variables, such as the total volume of output in a country, or the path of consumer spending, or inflation.
If economists are hazy about what is going on right now, they are even less sure about the future. Due to the general measurement difficulties, as well as unforeseen ...

Bloomberg re-ups Bloomberg coverage ban
Bloomberg News will continue its policy of not covering owner Michael Bloomberg or his company after he steps down as mayor of New York City.
The policy, which has been in place since the creation of Bloomberg News in 1990, was dropped in part in order to allow for some coverage of Bloomberg's actions as mayor. It's return was announced by Bloomberg News editor-in-chief Matt Winkler, in an interview with Fortune.
"I see no reason to change a policy that was conceived at the inception of Bloomberg News, and has served us well," Winkler said.

Baja California Sur Food Price Survey - Compare to Your Hometown
We added more items to our shopping list and checked more stores than ever before. This year the supermarket price competition came out much closer.
On March 1, 2013 we took our shopping list of 37 staple food and grocery items to the major grocery chain stores in La Paz, Baja California Sur. These items were selected from our weekly shopping list, items that are staples and items selected at random from previous shopping.
We selected brands in advance that are common to most or all of the stores, in many cases these were not the least expensive choice in a similar product. But we had to be fair across the six stores surveyed somehow.
Our first Insider Baja Food Price Survey was done in March of 2011 and at that time Walmart was the new player in town and was as much as 18% higher than the lowest priced store. The supermarket market has stabilized since the rapid expansion of the chains, and the gap between high and low price markets has narrowed to 7%.
Most importantly in saving money...
We'll start you right off with the bottom line. The price spread of the major markets was not significant, even on a $100USD grocery bill you are only differing by pocket change. Hardly worth driving across town, past three other markets to do your shopping.
We shopped fixed items to compare prices. Few people really shop that way and significant savings can be had a markets that offer sales on items and planning your menu by intelligent 'buy-em-what's-on-sale' planning. This week for example Mega shoppers would do well to stock up on ground beef, while Ley shoppers dine on New York steaks. Zucaritas cereal is half the price at Ley this week than it is at Aramburo. But at Aramburo you should stock up on Pacific Light and white onions!
The key here is intelligent sale purchases. Having done marketing for food companies for many years, test products are your most likely sale items. These test products range from great new ideas to fat and sugar laden crap, the vast majority being of the later. Meal planning around the main course item of what may be on special will save you more money than picking which market to frequent.
Use your points card at Soriana and save. Know that your points also expire and your running total is usually displayed on the cashier's screen. It takes a little more time in life than I have to spare, so I just apply the points as the gal rings up the order. I've never paid attention to what is really the best application of each point. I don't have time to care that much. Had we applied any card member benefits Soriana might have narrowed the price gap even more.
Shopping history in La Paz
Things certainly have changed since I arrived in La Paz a little over a decade ago and the number of supermarkets has grown explosively. Aramburo's Market was established in the 1920's on Calle Madero after silver began to run out in El Triunfo and the Aramburo family relocated to the smaller, but growing city of La Paz. We included Aramburo's Markets for the first time in our survey. It is not surprising that this local market chain does not have the buying power of the major markets and proved to be 12% higher than the low price winner. But for a corner market and a little slice of La Paz history, it ain't all bad. The price survey applies to the two La Paz Markets. The one in down town Cabo San Lucas has separate pricing.
The Centro Commercial California or CCC local supermarket established over a century ago in the pearling business, brought the next evolution of grocery shopping with two "supermarket" locations to Baja Sur in the 80's. CCC supermarkets are now gone, bought out by the Chedrauri chain and both stores were renovated in 2011. At first, many of the same products and same familiar faces were seen. But I understand CCC was more generous than Chedrauri and some of the gringo brands and old friends can no longer be found there.
Ley's opened two supermarkets just ten years ago and were the first of the spacious American style multi-markets to open in La Paz. These markets are now looking a little worn in La Paz and should be due up for a facelift. The 5 de Mayo location is the only big store on that side of town, but it services one of the less affluent areas of La Paz to the southeast. Ley had the best selection of cheese, chirizo and packaged deli meats. An excellent presentation and selection of deli cheeses and meats as well, although roast beef remains a rare find.
Soriana locations came along about 8 years ago and this evolution brought the wine, deli and bakery sections that are so popular in northern supermarkets. Soriana also introduced the points card and is now the only supermarket continuing the practice.
Then came Walmart and the gringos flocked in for familiar brands. The Walmart's in La Paz and Cabo San Lucas are small to medium sized stores from the perspective of norther visitors. Walmart has the best selection of goods other than grocery and more regular quality on those goods.
Mega stores are the latest addition to the shopping choices in La Paz, although they have been in San Jose del Cabo for some time. In La Paz it is probably the snazziest of al the markets. An excellent wine selection, a foreign foods section to rival any in La Paz and good quality produce make it one of my personal favorites. The meats & poultry section is a large island, but I've had trouble getting service there once and a while when they are stocking.
Since I am not a loyal chain shopper, I have frequented each of these chains many times. I tend to shop the store closest to where I call home, where my path takes me for that given day, or if I need a specific item only available at one store.
Statistics show that most folks shop the store closest to home, regardless of price, and in most cases the time and gas more than covers the difference in prices, unless of course the most expensive store is the one closest to you.
Spring 2013 Grocery Price Survey Winners & Losers
For our Price Comparison Chart click here;
On the chart we indicate the highest (red) and lowest priced (green) store for each item. Clearly, no one store was the overall winner.
#1 – Chedrauri - Price Survey Winner - (last survey #2)
Chedrauri has always been one of the most competitive store chains and returns to the #1 price position in this this, the fourth price survey. There has been a decrease in the quantity of 'gringo' foods and not all stores carry the same items, depending on the neighborhood. We give them the best price crown, but the produce was pretty sad looking and the meat selection was limited. Wednesdays are fruits & vegetables day, for best prices and selections.
#2 – Commercial Mexicana / Mega Stores (#1 last survey) +2%
Mega stores well represent their name, with a wide selection of products, grocery and otherwise. Probably the most aggressive on in-store marketing. The fruits and vegetables were of good quality in a slightly smaller section than some other store chains. The meats and poultry sections offer good selection. The stores are always well stocked on our visits. Mega takes top honors in the supporting cafeteria role. The coffee shop/cafe had a nice menu and the coffee was right up there. Tuesdays and Thursdays bring the best deals and selections on fruits and veggie's
#3 – Soriana slightly more expensive, but if you use your card... (last survey #3) +4%
The 'anchor' store in both the La Paz and Cabo locations, and now with a new location at the "Cola de Ballena". Soriana's represented the first huge multi-store in both cities. The last store with an effective points program, you do have to know how to use the points to benefit. We did not apply any points-card purchases to our survey, if you did, Soriana might be be #1. They have a wide selection of dry goods, however I have found many of their products below my standards, particularly clothing.
It remains a reoccurring problem of finding the same brand name product on different visits.
Soriana also offers online shopping with home delivery within a specified radius of their stores. Most of La Paz is covered, here in CostaBaja we are not. The prices on some items was less than that in the stores. In some items only premium choices were available.
#4 – Walmart - More competitive - Best Meats (last survey #6) +5%
Walmart was as much as 18% higher in previous surveys but in this edition is right in the running. Without a doubt Walmart offers the highest quality meats on a regular basis. They are also regularly the highest priced on those fine meats. Produce is always of good or better quality and lettuce is available at Walmart when other places don't have it. Walmart has A&W Root Beer and many other gringo favorites. Although Walmart would not be my mention for the highest quality in the States, I think their merchandise other than food is perhaps the best quality available in La Paz.
#5 – Ley- Something continues to slip (last survey #4) +7%
Locals refer to Ley's as 'the poor people's store'. Honestly I have no idea why, except for maybe their location in the city. The stores were just as clean and well stocked but older and not quite of the superstore caliber, although they also stock dry goods. Wine selections were very limited and the focus in the alcohol section was on beer. Produce is usually very good, if not the best and seems to benefit from local buys on some items. The meat section was limited and the steaks were thin in package, but could be cut to order. Ley on 5 de Mayo had one of the best deli sections (cut meats & cheeses) All the other stores in our survey had more 'other' products. They have the fewest 'gringo brands'. The Ley on 5 de Mayo was just completing a little cafeteria.
Aramburo Markets (the Cow Store to many La Paz visitors) were the most expensive, by 12% - so what. Aramburo's is a local market with a handful of locations in Baja California Sur and certainly not a power buyer in the world of Supermarket Bingo. The store on Madero has history and is a great place to make a run for quick items, due to easy access most of the time and quick checkout. The store in central Cabo is in easy walking distance from many hotels, BnB's and homes in El Centro.
So what does it mean?
Let us presume that the price comparison is across the board on all grocery products. This is a flawed assumption of course, but on your $1000 peso bill, that is only $150 pesos or about $11USD. Over the course of a year that is about a free months worth of groceries if you switch from the highest priced store to the most affordable.
A final note: Shopping sale items makes all the difference in the world, but mostly on the big ticket items. Look for sales flyers that promote good values on meats and chicken, bags of dog food and other pricey items you buy. Saving a few cents on canned items or a kilo of frijoles doesn't add up to a hill of beans.

The White House said on Monday that it is undeniable that chemical weapons were used in Syria and that there is little doubt that the Syrian government used them.
President Barack Obama, said White House spokesman Jay Carney, is evaluating the appropriate response to the use of chemical weapons but has made no decision on how to respond. Carney had no time frame for when Obama would decide.
"There is very little doubt in our mind that the Syrian regime is culpable," said Carney. He said it is undeniable that the weapons were used in what he called a violation of an international norm.

Relatives and acquaintances, knowing I am in favor of the Affordable Health Care Act, have asked me all kinds of horror questions: Will they really have a death panel that will decide some people are just too old to get health care? Continue Reading

Modified Mustangs & FordsHow To Drivetrain
Tremec 3550 Five-Speed Transmission Rebuild
Slick Shifting Upgrade
While the Top Loader transmission will always hold a place in our hearts for the untold gear exchanges it has made in our classic Fords, many people are turning towards overdrive transmissions for better fuel economy and added strength. Tremec remains the go-to standard for brand new gearboxes, but if you like to have a more hands-on and/or budget-conscious approach, rebuilding a used unit might be right for you.
As a longtime Fox Mustang enthusiast, this author remembers the early '90s 5.0 craze well. The Fox Mustang was a clean slate. The engine wasn't that great, nor was the suspension, brakes, rear axle, chassis, or transmission for that matter. But Ford built plenty of durability into those stock components—the engine, as well as the rearend, could handle just about everything you could throw at it in that time period. It became apparent, once you added some horsepower and started running slicks or power shifting, that the T-5 transmission would start showing its weakness. It was not so much a weakness, but more to the fact that it was being asked to perform at a level beyond its intended design.
Later T-5s were the strongest, and soon the '93-'95 Cobra T-5 "Z" internals were the hot ticket to build the highest torque rated T-5s of the time at 330 lb-ft. But the bolt-ons still kept coming and the horsepower levels kept rising. Nobody had much to offer in the way of a heavy-duty transmission that would handle the newfound levels of horsepower and torque. Some resorted to installing Top Loader four-speeds for track duty, and the more affluent racer sprung for boxes from Jerico and Liberty. There was nothing really affordable or practical for the street until the Tremec 3550 and TKO transmissions debuted.
At the time of the 3550's release, the GM folk were all about the T-56 six-speeds in their new F-bodies. But to the Ford gang, the five-speed 3550 was a godsend. Torque ratings were very conservatively rated at 350 lb-ft for the 3550 and 375 lb-ft for the later TKO. Ford even saw fit to install the 3550 into its '95 Cobra R behind a 351 Windsor. Times were pretty good for a while.
Tremec transmissions may seem daunting to work on, but they actually require fewer special tools to rebuild than a T-5 does. Simple handtools and a pair of expanding ring pliers are about all that is usually needed.
Back then, these transmissions retailed for around $1,200, and you still needed to buy a new bellhousing as well as perform a few modifications to the car to get it to fit. Adjusted for inflation, that price has easily doubled for the new Tremec TKO 500 and 600 series transmissions.
These transmissions have been coming up for sale more and more frequently in the recent years, but unfortunately, many have been abused and lived hard lives. Let's face it; someone didn't pony up the cash for an expensive transmission because he wanted to install it behind a stock 5.0 daily driver. No, more likely the owner blew up his T-5 because of the power upgrades and/or racetrack use, so an upgrade was required.

Javs baseball one win away from playoffs
With the Lone Star Conference Pitcher of the Week in tow, Texas A&M-Kingsville's baseball team heads into this weekend's regular-season finale series against Angelo State needing one victory to secure a spot in the postseason tournament in Abilene.
Moody-ex Josh Livingston garnered the LSC honor after tossing his seventh complete game of the season in a 2-1 victory over Southeastern (Okla.) State last Friday. Livingston (5-3) has 21 career wins, tying him with former teammate Raul Trevino for second on A&M-Kingsville's all-time list. Livingston allowed seven hits and no earned runs over nine innings against the top-hitting team in the conference. It is the second time this season Livingston has won the LSC pitching honor.
A&M-Kingsville (21-19 LSC, 26-25 overall) needs one win to eliminate Tarleton State (18-22, 24-28) for the sixth and final postseason berth. The Javelinas own the tiebreaker over the Texans, who dropped three of four to A&M-Kingsville in Stephenville earlier in the month. TSU closes at first-place Abilene Christian.
Senior Taylor Everett continued his late-season surge by hitting .417 in last weekend's four-game series against SEO. He has a six-game hitting streak and has hit safely in 23 of his last 24 games. With 125 career starts, Everett ranks fifth in career hits with 151 and is tied for fifth in career triples with six.
Senior outfielder Chase Myrick enters this weekend's series ranked sixth in career hits with 145 and his current .371 career batting average puts him in a tie for the fourth-best career average in school history.
The Javs play a single game against the Rams today, a doubleheader Saturday and a single game Sunday.
Softball team also seeks playoff spot
A&M-Kingsville's softball squad is facing the same situation as the baseball team, needing a win to clinch fourth place in the LSC South and a spot in next week's postseason tournament in Durant, Okla. The Javelinas (7-8, 22-29) travel to second-place Tarleton State (12-3, 24-22) this weekend with a two-game lead plus the tiebreaker over West Texas A&M. The Buffaloes (5-10, 22-31) host third-place Abilene Christian.
The Javelinas will play a doubleheader Saturday and a single game Sunday against the TexAnns. A&M-Kingsville has played well on the road, posting a 4-2 LSC record and winning series at Texas Woman's and West Texas.
The Javelinas have had an excellent year on the base paths, especially in conference play. A&M-Kingsville has stolen 30 bases in 34 attempts in LSC play with Jasmine Ross leading the way with 10 steals in as many tries. Cassie Anderson has broken the school record for most steals in a season (30) and in a career (59) and the team has a school record 84 steals this season. Last year the Javelinas only had 58 steals.
Softball signs six
for 2009 season
A&M-Kingsville softball coach Blake Miller has signed six high school seniors for the 2009 season.
Yvette Berlanga (San Antonio O'Connor), Christine Brumley (Waller), Jessica Clayburg (New Caney), Nicole Day (White Rock, B.C.), Elizabeth Etter (O'Connor) and Jessica Schneider (Schulenburg) will come to A&M-Kingsville in the fall.
Those six players join high school senior Kaycee Bryan (Splendora) as part of the class of 2009.
"This is a very versatile group," Miller said. "They can play a lot of different positions and I think four to five of them will make a significant impact next season."
Women's squad adds Blinn guard
Javelina women's basketball coach Scott Hyland has announced that Ursula Hill, starting point guard at Blinn Junior College, has signed a letter of intent to attend Texas A&M-Kingsville.
Hill helped Blinn to a school record 26-6 record this year, averaging 7.8 points and 2.4 assists per game. She was an honorable mention All-Conference pick this season. A two year starter at Blinn, Hill was a two-time first-team All-District and All-Region honorable mention pick for Cy-Fair.

Mills, A; (2009) The confluence of public and private international law: justice, pluralism and subsidiarity in the international constitutional ordering of private law. Cambridge University Press
Full text not available from this repository.
A sharp distinction is usually drawn between public international law, concerned with the rights and obligations of states with respect to other states and individuals, and private international law, concerned with issues of jurisdiction, applicable law and the recognition and enforcement of foreign judgments in international private law disputes before national courts. Through the adoption of an international systemic perspective, Dr Alex Mills challenges this distinction by exploring the ways in which norms of public international law shape and are given effect through private international law. Based on an analysis of the history of private international law, its role in US, EU, Australian and Canadian federal constitutional law, and its relationship with international constitutional law, he rejects its conventional characterisation as purely national law. He argues instead that private international law effects an international ordering of regulatory authority in private law, structured by international principles of justice, pluralism and subsidiarity.

By BERNIE BELLAN
(Note: This story was first posted Oct. 2, 2012 and quickly became the most widely read story in the history of this website. With the news that City of Winnipeg CAO Phil Sheegl announced his resignation, I thought it appropriate to reprise what I wrote over a year ago. By the way, while one shoe has now dropped, it would be appropriate for our ethically challenged mayor to do the right thing and join his friend Sheegl in resigning.
Given the number of mayors in Canada who have been shown to be "ethicallly challenged" in the past few weeks, we thought it appropriate to re-post this story. There are still too many unanswered questions about the nature of the relationship between old pals Sam Katz and Phil Sheegl - and just what has been happening in Scottsdale, Arizona these past few years involving those two.
As we continue to watch with fascination the ongoing series of revelations about Mayor Sam Katz's alleged conflicts of interests; his business dealings with his close friend and City of Winnipeg CAO Phil Sheegl; and the involvement of Shindico (headed by another close Sam Katz friend, Sandy Shindleman) in so much of the city's business, some thoughts come to mind:
When a politician comes under severe fire, invariably that politician's first instinct is to hunker down and fight back. There is a certain cynicism about both the public's and the media's attention span when it comes to probing suggestions of impropriety. After all, didn't former Prime Minister Jean Chretien avoid calling an inquiry into what became known as Adscam for years, despite the mounting evidence that the Liberal Party in Quebec had been involved in largescale financial corruption? It was only when Chretien's successor, Paul Martin, came to power, that a commission of inquiry was organized – and look where that eventually took the Liberals: Into political eclipse.
These days it seems that the only time we hear of a politician admitting wrongdoing is when it relates to some sort of sexual impropriety.
While Sam Katz is a wily politician though, there is a momentum to the allegations of malfeasance that does not seem to be dissipating. The two main reporters who are working on this story. Bartley Kives of the Free Press and Sean Kavanaugh of the CBC are dogged individuals. They are fully aware what questions to continue asking and what trails to continue following. They also know which individuals might be willing to come forward with information when the time is right.
As someone who has been involved in attempting to expose wrongdoing myself, viz. the Crocus Fund debacle, I know full well the difficulty in getting people to talk about what they know – either on or off the record. For instance, with regard to the story about the fire hall on Taylor Avenue, there have to be individuals within the city's Planning Department who would be privy to certain aspects of the deal whose knowledge of those details would do much to answer many of the questions swirling about that particular deal.
No doubt those individuals are frightened to speak to any reporter – no matter what kinds of assurances of confidentiality they might be given. Now, while bureaucrats are generally restricted from speaking to the media unless that is cleared with someone in authority, usually someone, somewhere, in as large a bureaucracy as the City of Winnipeg's can be expected to "leak" information – unless they are absolutely terrified to do so. Experience would suggest, however, that bureaucrats who are interested in furthering their careers will maintain a very careful circumspection when it comes to offending their political masters, especially if it would not be too difficult to deduce the source of a particular item of information.
I have been told, for example, by someone who was formerly a senior planner with the City of Winnipeg that the atmosphere in the Planning Depart-ment is poisoned, that morale is at an all-time low, and that anyone with superior qualifications who might be thinking of applying for a position in that department will stay well clear of working for the city.
There is another aspect to this story though – and something I wrote about in my last Short Takes column, and that is the embarrassment that this story is causing to the Jewish community. Forget for a moment the diversion caused by that silly poster attacking Sam Katz, which we heard about two weeks ago. (By the way, the author of that poster also sent us an e-mail two weeks ago, parts of which are printed on the opposite page.)
I wrote in my last column that, as Jews, we should hold ourselves to a higher standard of behaviour – not only because we are so often stereotyped by others, but because so much of what it means to be a Jew is grounded in an ethical norm that has developed over thousands of years. While I don't pretend to be observant, like most other students who attended Joseph Wolinsky Collegiate, I did study the Talmud - and am fully aware of the pivotal role that ethical behaviour plays in defining what it means to be a good Jew.
One can hardly expect any rabbi in this community to come out publicly and take a stand on what we've been reading and hearing about with regard to our mayor, nor can any representative of a Jewish organization here be expected to do that, but let's be honest: This is an issue that is being talked about constantly and is causing a great deal of embarrassment to us, as Jews.
Can Sam Katz or Phil Sheegl resign without losing face? The answer is: No. Yet, that is what they both should do. Will either of them do that? Sheegl perhaps. He might get "thrown under the bus", so to speak, by Katz, but based on what has already emerged, they both should do the right thing and resign.
What a mess.
With Hoshana Rabbah fast approaching, Mayor Sam Katz and CAO Phil Sheegl only have till sundown Saturday, Sunday at the latest, to do the right thing and step down.
Canada Revenue Agency & the RCMP and hauled away like common criminals in handcuffs
This I could not bear to watch.

Going up behind someone and putting your hands playfully over their eyes is poorly starred this month, especially if either of you are carrying a bowlful of water.
You know those pictures you sometimes see in the newspapers where a person/child stands one side of a thick glass wall with a wild animal, like a lion, the other side, both looking at each other...? taken in a zoo most probably.... Well, there appears to be some sort of incident that is difficult to translate in Scorpio's chart this month - the word 'arraigned' is the closest English word. Ho Hum.
Greet disappointments with a loud sigh and theatrically rolled eyes until 16th of the month.
This month your leap year destiny is shrouded in what ifs.

In the Henri Pittier National Park, in the central Venezuelan coast, ECE is one of the most serene and beautiful beaches of the state of Aragua. It is located a little further east of Chuao and it is cocoa-producing area. Land access is almost impossible, however, be reached by boat from Puerto Maya Choroni, from where the boat takes between 30 and 45 minutes to make the trip at a cost of U.S. $ 20 per person per trip (U.S. $ 40 per person return).
The relief of Cepe is varied and can be classified into three regions: the valley, cultivated with cocoa; two paradisiacal beaches and mountains.
In the Valley of Cepe is the village, a small hamlet, half an hour walk from Mija forests, flowers and plants from cacao. On that walk the good observers faced with a series of artworks by Jose Gomez, a modest self-taught artist who creates amazing work area. For birders this is a true paradise.
ECE-beach of white sand lapped by the waters of a beautiful pale blue, spreading over 700 mx 30 m. It is an ideal place for surfers due to large waves, but also for the children because a beach area is surrounded by a reef that stops the big waves and creates a natural swimming pool, ideal for relaxing. The contrast between the forest, sand and sea produces a mixture of colors difficult to match. Cepe beach with typical food kiosks and health, and if you want to stay, just 300 meters is La Posada Puerto Escondido, where he also runs a diving center, where the interested can obtain basic and advanced certificate PADI.
-PUERTO ESCONDIDO: This beach has two zones, one composed of rocks and reef at high tide natural function like small jacuzzi and a small and very quiet beach, 30 mx 5 m with powerful waves that form a corridor of rock, offering a show that no one should miss, as it constitutes the best evidence of the immense power of the sea. You can only walk and is located in the western part of Cepe.

- IDEFICS - Identification and prevention of dietary- and lifestyle-induced health effects in children and infants
IDEFICS - Identification and prevention of dietary- and lifestyle-induced health effects in children and infants
15 March 2012
The modern life style has drastically changed in Europe during the last decades as reflected in alterations of infant behaviour, unhealthy dietary habits, and low physical activity. Diet appears to play a part in the development of overweight, obesity, metabolic syndrome, type II diabetes and musculoskeletal disorders.
To stop the epidemic of diet- and lifestyle-induced morbidity in European children, IDEFICS enhanced the knowledge of the health effects of a changing diet and an altered social environment of infants. It developed, implemented and validated specific intervention approaches, focusing on the age group of 2 to 10 years.
The study was designed to run for five years and was funded by the European Commission (DG Research). 24 renowned research institutes and small and medium-sized enterprises located in 10 different EU-countries were participating in the IDEFICS-Study, which began in September 2006.
Surveys helped to assess the prevalence of overweight, obesity, metabolic syndrome, diabetes (type II), scoliosis and related risk factors. This formed the basis for the investigation of the effects of diet, lifestyle, psychological, biochemical and genetic factors and their interaction in the development of overweight, obesity and other developmental disorders. Promotion and prevention modules were implemented and evaluated in kindergartens and schools in eight European countries in order to develop efficient evidence-based approaches.
The Integrated Project (IP) identified a risk profile inventory for children susceptible to the named disorders and their co-morbidity and devised tailored prevention strategies that were effective, easy to implement and that accounted for the needs of different social groups. Genetic and non-genetic factors, psychosocial background and social settings were considered simultaneously in the research. Population-based studies investigated the impact of sensory perception and provided results concerning short and long-term effects of food choices. Children's consumer behaviour, its determinants and its relation to overweight and obesity, were also assessed. The IP considered societies' use of information on individual risk factors as well as on individuals' rights and responsibilities. The ethical implications of a "right not to know" of genetic factors and the use of individual data were addressed. Other ethical aspects raised by the research of IDEFICS, in particular in relation to social class and gender, were part of the investigation process. The IP provided a knowledge-based set of guidelines on dietary, behavioural and lifestyle activities for health promotion and disease prevention in children for scientists, health professionals, policy makers, and consumers in Europe.

RATHER than transmitting radio messages, extraterrestrial civilisations would find it far more efficient to send us a "message in a bottle" - some kind of physical message inscribed on matter. And it could be waiting for us in our own backyard.
That's the conclusion of a new analysis of interstellar communications by Christopher Rose of Rutgers University in New Jersey and Gregory Wright, a physicist with Antiope Associates also in New Jersey. Assuming the aliens don't care how long it takes for their message to arrive, beaming a radio signal that can be detected 10,000 light years away, for instance, would take a million billion times as much energy as just shooting out matter in which data is embedded. "If energy is what you care about, it's tremendously more efficient to toss a rock," Rose says.
Radiation loses out to rocks over long distances because it spreads out as it ...

Trailblazers 5-2
The Trailblazer's of Ohio Christian University won one and lost one over the weekend. The Trailblazer's now 5 and 2 traveled to Phoenixville PA this weekend to take on last year's national runner up Valley Forge Christian University on Friday. The team came out flat and slow against a quick and hard pressing Valley Forge. "We could not get up to game speed says Coach Christopher. I don't know if it was the long trip or what but we needed to come out with a lot more energy." The trailblazers went into the locker room at half time down by 17 points. "We pressed and scraped to try and get back into the game but the closest we got was 8." The final score was 77 to 87. On Saturday the team looked much better against Davis College defeating them 85 to 66. The team came out shooting and rebounding well. Stand out blazers included Senior Stefan Vasiloff, shooting 7 for 10 from the field for 19 points, 5 rebounds and 2 steals. Blazer forward Jeremy Hays had 7 points, 10 rebounds and 2 steals. Sophomore guard Michael Farrell shot 7 for 9 from the field for 16 points, 3 rebounds and 3 assists. The Trailblazers travel to Hillsboro, Ohio on Tuesday to take on Southern State before taking a couple of days off for Thanksgiving.

Caribbean blues
Ryan Sidebottom apologises for the first Test debacle and promises we will see a different England.
Last Updated: 27/05/09 2:41pm
I know the weather has been making the papers in the UK but its got nothing on the coverage we received following our defeat in Kingston - and the criticism is nothing less than we deserve.
We won the toss but then made a total that was probably 70 or 80 runs short of what we should have scored. I thought we fought hard as a unit with the ball despite the start that the West Indies got, on a wicket that didn't offer too much in the way of encouragement. We got the last nine wickets for less than 200 which was encouraging and we must have bowled in decent areas, as the runs were scored at barely two runs an over.
Obviously our second innings was hugely disappointing. We went down very weakly without any apparent fight or commitment. It sometimes happens like that in cricket and I cannot begin to describe how gutted the dressing room was.
I suppose we have just got to take our medicine, apologise to the fans and move on to Antigua - where we have a chance to make up for it.
Putting aside what was, in the end, a poor result, I was pleased with my own performance. This was my first game back for England after being injured for a number of months and I was pretty happy with my performance with both bat and ball. I made an unbeaten 26 in the first innings and then batted for nearly an hour in the second innings, before being adjudged leg before.
I referred the decision, which was eventually upheld. I'd have to say, with the technology not being 100 per cent, we could be better off just leaving decisions solely to the umpires, until the technology becomes watertight and removes any reasonable doubt.
I bowled in decent areas but was maybe a bit down on pace. That will come though and I've been working hard in the nets, with my rhythm improving all the time and am now getting a bit more behind the ball.
I was gutted not to take a wicket - I always am - but was really chuffed for Stuart Broad, who got his first five-wicket haul in Test cricket. As bowlers, it's crucial we hunt as a pack and if we keep it tight and ask questions, at least one of us will be rewarded with wickets.
We've worked extremely hard in preparing for the second Test match and are doing everything possible to ensure that we are on the boil on Friday and ready to go.
It looks like being another decent wicket in Antigua - similar to the ones we have played at already in St Kitts and Jamaica. Having said that, Australia took six wickets for 40 runs with a ball that reverse swung in June last year, so there may be opportunities for the quicker bowlers.
There's been a lot written about the atmosphere in the dressing room but I can tell you that everyone gets on and there's been no falling out amongst the squad.
Maybe a weakness of us getting on so well, is that we might not always challenge each other over our performances, but there have been a few home truths since the Jamaica Test. We are well aware that recent Test results - losing to South Africa and India - are not good enough and we will do everything we can to turn it around.
Last night we ate out together as a team and were chatting about the match coming up and that kind of stuff. The boys are desperate to come back into the series and do the supporters over here and back home proud.
I hope you've not been too affected by the weather in the UK and be assured that we will be busting a gut in Antigua to provide some winter cheer for you.

In Schenck v. United States (1919), Justice Oliver Wendell Holmes stated that freedom of speech could be restricted if the speech represented a clear and present danger; the example he gave was that a person could not shout, "Fire!" in a crowded theater that was not on fire. Through the early years of the Cold War, the clear and present danger test was used to limit the free speech of socialists and communists. The Supreme Court upheld the Smith Act (1940) that made it a crime to advocate the overthrow of the government by force. Under Chief Justice Earl Warren, the Court took the position that political speech was protected under the First Amendment unless it incited "imminent lawless action" or was "likely to produce such action."
Nonpolitical public speech may not be to everyone's taste, and the Supreme Court has had to consider laws that restrict it. Some statements are deemed fighting words and are not protected. There have been cases in which a speaker was arrested because what was said might have caused a riot or a harmful disturbance. Regarding public speech, the Court has tended to approve laws that are very narrowly drawn and to reject those that paint limitations on public speech with too broad a brush.
Some forms of speech involve not words but actions, usually as part of a political protest. Examples of symbolic speech include burning the American flag and burning draft cards during the Vietnam War. The Supreme Court has sometimes protected such actions even though people might find them objectionable because they are, in effect, expressions of political ideas. In United States v. Eichman (1990), the Court declared the Flag Protection Act of 1989 unconstitutional on these grounds.
