Professor of Medicine and Immunology
Phone: 412-692-2118
Dr. Anuradha Ray received her Ph.D. from Calcutta University in India. She underwent postdoctoral training at Cornell University, Ithaca, NY and at Rockefeller University in New York. She was on the faculty at Rockefeller University and at Yale University between the years 1990 and 2001 before moving to the University of Pittsburgh.
Dr. Ray's overall research interest is in immune regulation of inflammatory diseases of the lung and the gut. Early research from her lab led to the identification of NF-kB as a target for glucocorticoid-mediated repression of gene expression and the discovery of GATA-3 as a master regulator of Th2 cells, which promote allergic diseases including asthma. More recent work from her laboratory has identified a key role for Tregs expressing membrane-bound TGF-b with cross-talk with the Notch pathway in regulation of immune tolerance in the airways.
The primary goal of Dr. Ray's current research is to understand interactions between dendritic cells (DCs) and T helper cells that either promote diseases such as asthma or suppress disease involving regulatory T cells (Tregs) as observed in the context of immune tolerance. Asthma is a heterogeneous disease with multiple sub-phenotypes. The most severe form of the disease poorly responds to standard therapy. In this regard, in collaboration with Dr. Sally Wenzel, her laboratory is using samples from mild and severe asthma human subjects to understand the differences in the aberrant immune response in the different forms of asthma and the molecular basis for unresponsiveness to corticosteroids in severe disease. Using the currently available data generated from analysis of human samples by immunological and RNA sequencing methods, her lab has also established a new model of severe asthma, which mimics many aspects of the human disease. This model can now be used to test novel therapeutics. She is also interested in mucosal defense mechanisms against infectious agents. In collaborative studies between her lab and that of Dr. Prabir Ray, for the first time a pathogen, respiratory syncytial virus, was shown to disable Tregs in early life thereby compromising immune tolerance and increasing the risk for asthma in later life. Studies in her laboratory employ animal models of disease and human samples, which are analyzed using immunological, molecular, biochemical, physiological and imaging techniques. Her research has been continuously funded by multiple grants from the NIH. She is an invited member of the Faculty of 1000 Biology in the Immunology discipline.

Nsanje — It has established that the country's Open and Distance Learning (ODL) trainee teachers have gone two months without getting their monthly allowances, Malawi News Agency (Mana) can reveal.
The ODL trainee teachers, who spoke on condition of anonymity for fear of reprisal, said they have not been paid the April and May allowances.
"We are surprised that authorities are sitting on our allowances. As per the agreement with the Ministry of Education, we are supposed to receive a monthly allowance to cater for our basic necessities.
"How can we survive in the wake of rising cost of living without the money? We are struggling to make ends meet due to the Ministry's non-payment of our allowances," said the concerned ODL teachers.
The trainee teachers claimed they were told by the college official that the donors stopped supporting the programme and that the Ministry of Education was responsible for it.
"We were told by the college officials that donors had stopped supporting our trainings that includes payment of our allowances. Our college officials told us that the Ministry of Education is the one responsible for payment of our allowances," they claimed.
Therefore, the disgruntled trainee teachers blamed the Ministry of Education for failing to discharge their allowances per training guidelines.
"We feel the Ministry of Education is not helping us. It is our plea that they should address the problem once and for all," they urged.
Kasungu Teachers Training College Bursar and Administrator, Henry Kambizi acknowledged to have failed to pay the teachers allowances for the months of April and May attributing the problem to lack of funding from the treasury.
"Is is true that ODL trainee teachers have not been receiving their allowances as we have had no funding from the Treasury. We are yet to be communicated the reasons behind the failure to provide funding," explained Kambizi.
However, Kambizi refused to comment on assertions that government is failing to disburse the funding following donors' withdrawal from supporting the ODL programme as alleged by the trainee teachers.
Ministry of Finance publicist, Nations Msowoya said the ministry has been approving funds for the Ministry of Education.
"Ministry of education has been receiving funding from the treasury however the allocation to specific areas is done at ministry level. We are not involved in that as finance ministry or treasury, so you have to consult ministry of education officials," Msowoya said.
Ministry of Education spokesperson, Rebecca Phwitiko asked for more time to consult on the matter.

Wednesday Western: 'Sabata'
Lee Van Cleef has deadly aim
Free for you to view on YouTube: Sabata, a violent 1969 Spaghetti Western spiced with dollops of dark comedy, starring Lee Van Cleef in the title role as a gunfighter whose unfailing accuracy serves him well when he rides into a small Texas town.
Sabata is the right man in the right place when he foils a bank robbery and dispatches the bandits. As it turns out, however, the robbery was masterminded by three seemingly upright citizens who want the cash to buy land that will greatly increase in value when the railroad comes through.
When Sabata attempts to blackmail the conspirators, they in turn hire gunslingers to rid themselves of "the man with gunsight eyes" (as Van Cleef's character was described in the movie's original ad campaign). Nothing good comes of this.
Sabata was directed by Gianfranco Parolini, a prolific Italian filmmaker often credited as Frank Kramer. He would later direct two sequels to this international box-office hit: Adios, Sabata (1970), in which Magnificent Seven star Yul Brynner assumed the lead role, and Return of Sabata (1971), which brought Van Cleef back for more gunblazing action. Parolini also kicked off another successful Spaghetti Western series in 1968 when he directed If You Meet Sartana Pray for Your Death, a film that spawned several sequels (and quite a few unauthorized knock-offs).

AMES — Jessica O'Riley of Cromwell will perform in Iowa State University (ISU) Theatre's production of "Amadeus" that opens Feb. 28. O'Riley, a sophomore in performing arts, will play a citizen of Vienna.
"Amadeus" tells the story of musician/composer Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart.
This play by Peter Shaffer is about the envy of one rival, Antonio Salieri, who may have been a third-rate composer, but deeply loved first rate music and was able to tell the difference between his own work and that of Mozart's. This recognition did not lead to hero worship, but to a plan for Mozart's destruction.
Amadeus is, as Shaffer himself wrote, "a fantasia based on fact." It is also a script that has drawn some of the greatest actors in the world, awards on two continents, and finally the Academy Award for Best Picture.
Iowa State University Theatre's production opens 7:30 p.m. Feb. 28 in Fisher Theatre in the ISU Center. Other performance dates are 7:30 p.m. March 1, 7 and 8 and 2 p.m. March 2 and 9 in Fisher Theater, Ames.
Tickets are priced at $17 for adults, $15 for seniors and $9 for students. Tickets can be purchased through any TicketMaster, Iowa State Center Ticket Office in Ames, or at the door before performances.

Defense Department's New Definition of 'Commercial Item' Will Save Money
May 2, 2012
The Department of Defense (DoD) is taking a major step in stopping the waste of taxpayer dollars. POGO recently learned that DoD sent a legislative proposal to Congress to narrow the definition of a "commercial item" to mean goods or services that are actually sold to the general public in "like quantities." This proposal is a huge improvement over the current definition, a broadly worded definition open to abuse because it includes good or services "of a type" that are "offered" for sale or lease.
Why does this matter? Once a good or service is considered "commercial," the government has little to no information about the relative cost of a good or service, and has little ability to audit the numbers behind the cost that the government is paying. If the new definition becomes law, DoD will no longer have to buy C-17s, C-130Js, or billions of dollars of specialized weapons-related subsystems (see pages 8-10) as commercial items. This should yield savings for taxpayers, as it has in the past. In 2006, for example, the conversion of the C-130J to a commercial item, which caused the repricing of 39 aircraft, resulted in "institutional net savings of $168 [million]" -- thank you, Senator John McCain (R-AZ, who was credited with the Air Force's actions).
If this issue sounds vaguely familiar it is because POGO has recommended changing the definition of commercial item as far back as 1999. In 2005, POGO provided written testimony to Senator McCain and the Senate Armed Services Airland Subcommittee, urging that the commercial item designation only be used for goods and services whose price is set by the genuine commercial marketplace. The next year, we asked Congress to look into the upsurge in the number of no-bid commercial item contracts.

The UK stock market inched higher than yesterday, registering decent gains today reaching 6,214.88, rising 0.28% as better-than-expected economic data from Europe and China, coupled with US lawmakers' decision to suspend the government's borrowing limit, eliminated the fear caused by Apple's disappointing earnings.
This morning, investors felt lost at the UK stock market as tech giant Apple surprisingly missed revenue and profit forecasts in its first quarter of fiscal year. But by mid-day, the UK stocks did better with the release of Chinese HSBC flash manufacturing purchasing managers' index (PMI) which rose to a two-year high of 51.9 in January, from 51.5 the month before. Analysts were expecting a figure of 51.7.
The UK stock market was further boosted by Eurozone composite PMI came in at 48.2, from 47.2 in December. While the figure still indicates contraction, it exceeded the predicted level of 47.5. Mining firms Anglo American, BHP Billiton and Rio Tinto were soaring this morning after improved Chinese data. Bank of America Meriill Lynch lifted Randgold stocks to 'buy'. Apple's disappointing results took down chip producer ARM Holdings' stocks.
Utilities stocks experienced series of broker upgrades. Centrica stocks rose as brokers raised its ratings to 'overweight', while Severn Trent and United Utilities edged marginally higher with a 'neutral' rating. Banking stocks lost out in today's stock market as Barclays reported 70 job losses in Asian investment wing in a major system overhaul. Lloyds was also in the red after announcing that 940 job cuts would take effect across most departments.
The top ten gainers in the UK stock market today are Croda International (lon:CRDA) 2,432.00p +3.14%, CRH (lon:CRH) 1,311.00p +2.90%, Vodafone Group (lon:VOD) 167.80p +2.66%, Polymetal International (lon:POLY) 1,087.00p +2.64%, Severn Trent (lon:SVT) 1,635.00p +1.93%, United Utilities Group (lon:UU.) 731.00p +1.88%, International Consolidated Airlines Group SA (CDI) (lon:IAG) 211.60p +1.58%, WPP (lon:WPP) 969.50p +1.31%, Wolseley (lon:WOS) 2,928.00p +1.10%, and Rio Tinto (lon:RIO) 3,536.00p +1.00%.
The top ten losers in the UK stock market today are Aggreko (lon:AGK) 1,780.00p -2.14%, British Sky Broadcasting Group (lon:BSY) 788.50p -1.44%, Eurasian Natural Resources Corp. (lon:ENRC) 336.60p -1.32%, Evraz (lon:EVR) 305.00p -1.26%, Burberry Group (lon:BRBY) 1,353.00p -1.17%, BAE Systems (lon:BA.) 338.20p -1.05%, Wood Group (John) (lon:WG.) 827.00p -1.02%, Marks & Spencer Group (lon:MKS) 375.30p -1.00%, BT Group (lon:BT.A) 248.40p -0.92%, and Tullow Oil (lon:TLW) 1,184.00p -0.92%.

Featuring games, activities and helpful information, "Roscoe and the Big Bed Bug Hunt" follows beagle detective Roscoe as he teaches children about these insects in a fun and friendly way. Roscoe is scheduled to visit several New York-Metro area libraries to educate children and distribute this free book.
Parsippany, N.J. (PRWEB) June 13, 2011
Bell Environmental Services announced its beagle detective Roscoe the Bed Bug Dog is sharing his bed bug hunting skills in a new activity and coloring book to help children learn about bed bugs.
The free, 16-page book, Roscoe and the Big Bed Bug Hunt, features games, coloring pages and helpful information about bed bugs for elementary school-aged children and parents. The book follows beagle detective Roscoe the Bed Bug Dog on a search. It teaches students how to find bed bugs of all stages and where they hide. Children connect-the-dots, find hidden items, draw pictures, and complete word searches and mazes as they learn about these insects in a fun and friendly way. The book is available for download, free of charge, on Bell Environmental's website .
Roscoe is one of the New York area's most recognizable canines. He has been featured by ABC's Good Morning America, the CBS Early Show, Animal Planet, The New York Times, and other local and national media. Roscoe stars in Bell Environmental's television commercials, an iPhone app, and his Facebook and Twitter pages.
"There is no one better to teach children about bed bugs than a beloved beagle," Glenn Waldorf of Bell Environmental Services. "Roscoe and the Big Bed Bug Hunt shows how to recognize bed bugs and their signs and teaches helpful tips. With the bed bug epidemic spreading so quickly into homes and schools, everyone should have the knowledge to prevent and detect issues from the start."

I set up file sharing for all of the computers in our office a couple of years ago and haven't really had to touch it since, but we've now got three new employees and three people who now need to access a shared folder on my computer.
Networking is not my forté at all, so I can't remember if I'm missing something. But there's a laptop running Windows 7. I've made sure that it's in the same workgroup as my PC, which it is. The laptop can see my PC on the network and can access the public folder, but it does not give me the option to login to a user account that I have created.
I created a user account on my PC called David. The laptop is called DAVID-PC. When the laptop browses to my PC on the network, it doesn't give me the option of logging in to the "David" account and thus it cannot access the folder that I have shared with "David." It will only access the public folder.
What am I missing / doing wrong?

interviewBy Amina Alhassan
Hassan Ibrahim, but more popular with Zule Zoo, together with Michael Aboh, achieved fame with the hit song 'Kerewa' which enjoyed a lot of air time on many radio and television stations in Nigeria. Ibrahim tells Weekend Magazine that the group is still intact, and dispelled rumours that the duo had split.
Weekend Magazine: You guys have been off the music scene for a while now. What happened?
Hassan Ibrahim: Actually we've been on a solo project; some circumstances beyond our control came up and we had to go back to the drawing board. We are coming back bigger and stronger.
So when is the expected come back?
Very soon. Our new video will be out soon and it will start airing from next week.
What should we expect?
It will amaze the entertainment scene. I will not speak much so that I don't let the cat out of the bag. All I can say is that our fans should watch out for the new Zule Zoo, because we are coming out steaming hot.
You ventured into acting sometime back, are you still into acting?
Yes, it is part of the artistic work of an artiste. I do acting, dancing, chorography, both cultural in Africa. In fact, everything about art is what I do. I also direct musical videos too.
Do you have any other hobbies beside music, entertainment?
No, my life is totally entertainment.
How well have you handled your popularity?
It has not been easy, but we've tried our best to make sure we are still Zule Zoo and make sure we don't stain the name as much as possible. We try to keep the flag flying, people may not have seen our video on air or heard our music on radio, but that doesn't mean we've given up or stopped what we are doing. We have a unique style of music that was invented by us and we won't let it die, we just want to make it stronger and better.
What informed your style of music? How did you guys come about that concept?
I invented it; I use to do R&B. So this Mohammed Danjuma (now late) who used to be a comedian then, heard my voice one day when I was free styling, he came to me and said you have a wonderful voice, I think you should go into music. Then I was 17 years old and I said there is a song that I am working on. He then told me that if I wanted to go into music, I should try as much as possible to stand out from the rest; that I shouldn't follow the trend of the crowd. So with that, I started working, and before I knew it, I had my own style and that is what we do till this moment. At least no one has our kind of music till date.
If there is one thing that you have to changed about yourself, what would it be?
Well, if there is anything I have to change about myself, it is reducing my kindness so that it won't become stupidity.
If this was to be your last day on earth, what will be your wish?
Well my wish is that the people I am going to leave behind do not suffer. Another I will also love to find out if God accepted my soul, so I can be able to rest well.
What is the worst impact your popularity has had on you?
A lot, like you can't be able to drink pure water like every other human being even when you are thirsty. You have to get bottled water all the time. Again people don't expect to see you still renting an apartment. One cannot stroll or go through some streets like that without someone trying to poke a jest at you and you have no option to be calm. Those are some of the disadvantages that come along with being popular. So you just keep on pleasing people all the time of your life though you are not happy, you have to smile as if there is nothing wrong with you when really there is a whole lot of trouble going on in your life.
Would it be right to say 'Kerewawa' was your biggest hit?
Well, that is what a lot people think, but I think it is just the uniqueness and style that made 'Kerewawa' big. In my opinion, there so many other tracks that were better than 'Kerewawa' that I have done in the past, but this new video that is coming out by next week is going really boost our uniqueness and originality for our music. Our style is not a coincidence or a mistake, it is an identity we want to create for ourselves.
When 'Kerewawa' was released, it was trailed by criticisms. How did you handle it?
Well, we didn't see it as anything that will make us worry, because a lot of people have done worst and demeaning songs than what we did. What we were projecting was peace in a family house, no adultery, no fornication. We were just trying to preach that if you are married, you stay and remain married and faithful. That's just what we are projecting, but because we are professional dancers, we just cannot stand and sing the normal way every musician will do. So, we tried to interpret what we are saying in form of dance.
What they did was just to look at the dance movement and judge us. We don't see the dance movement as anything bad, because where I grew up in Benue, the Tiv 'Kerewawa' dance movement is a very powerful movement; it is a remedy for waist pain. It is not every waist pain that is caused by sugar, sometimes it is because you are not exercising the body very well, that is why you see people getting bent when they are old.
How do you see the entertainment industry in the next five years?
The way the entertainment industry is going will become balanced. When I mean balanced I mean fully organized and productive. We are getting there, because there is a lot of internet marketing of our songs internationally. So they have made it so easy for us to market our songs even without releasing it. In the next five years the Nigerian music industry will be compared with that of the United States.
I guess you are married?
Not yet, we are planning to. We are on the way, but I am in a serious relationship. So yes I can say I am not searching anymore. (Laughing)
So how is your woman managing your popularity?
I made her understand the game, and you know we celebrities or entertainers, are always in the spotlight. When you have a woman who doesn't understand your personality in the entertainment scene and she doesn't give you that peace of mind to be able to create more things that you can showcase to the world, then there is a big problem. So, you need somebody who will actually understand the game and just blend with it. My relationship right now, why it is still on is because the woman understands the game and gives me all the support I need. That is the kind of person I need to help me focus and move forward in life.
You are Igala, how were you able to swerve from the Igala culture to Tiv culture?
I was born in Kaduna and my parents left for Benue when I was just four years old. Whatever cultural song or dance I learn, I really don't forget easily and that was when my love for the arts started, I was moving around with many Benue people. I learnt their culture, tradition and language. I can even sing some of their songs better than they would, probably because I was brought up there. Nevertheless, if you listen to the songs, it is not just Tiv, there is a combination of the southern and northern languages. Even the Badagary to Cotonou, you can feel their melody in the songs. The Igala and Idoma melodies too can be felt in the music. So, it is not just strictly Tiv, we are representing the whole of Nigeria and Africa in our songs. The only thing is that we like using Tiv as the basic tone for the song.
There were speculations that you guys were away from the music scene because the Zule Zoo group had separated. How true is this?
The difference between us and other musical groups is that we made it in such a way that everyone maintains his individual freedom. We had the freedom to do sole works and had the freedom to work together. So, that is just the way it is. If you want to see both of us on stage you will, if you want to see only Mike you will see him, likewise if you want to see only myself, you will. We do not have any problem, we still work together. In fact we are brothers from different homes. But the love we have for each other is the kind that I cannot just explain. Mike is from Benue but I am from Kogi.
The Zule Zoo group is still very much intact. Mike and I have come a long way and we just needed to take a break and go back to the drawing board so that our music could still make the desired impact. The Zule Zoo group is here to stay as far as music remains in Nigeria. Mike is a brother though we are from different states, we have a lot in common. I am Igala but I spent most of my growing years in Benue State and so I have been with him for long and music will not tear us apart.
Who has been sort of an inspiration to you?
It used to be Tuface, but right now I can't say Tuface anymore. I should be looking at people like Kofi Olumide.....
Why are you dumping Tuface for Kofi?
Laughing....before I went into music professionally I used to like the Plantashun Boyz and Tuface used to be my favorite. I wanted to be like him and even the way I sang back then when I started was like Tuface, but when we got into music proper, the whole thing now changed just like a child that would mistake infatuation for love. And as I grew up, I discovered that it is Fela that I should be looking up to, because he came out with a unique kind of music and maintained that style until he died.
How did the name Zule Zoo came about?
It came out as a result of a research. I wanted the group to bear a name that would not sound western, so I came up with a name Zule Zoo and gave it a meaning. I got the idea from the Zulu of South Africa. It is about their warriors and the Zoo I got it from the natural affection I have had for animals. From my days in secondary school, I have always studied animals. So what I did was to bring together the Zulu and the zoo, together but for the Zule I changed the 'u' to 'e'. The 'e' stands for entertainment.

2 Fla. officers killed in shootout, suspect dead
ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. When two wounded law officers were rushed from the scene of a deadly shooting Monday morning on Florida's Gulf Coast, someone handed St. Petersburg Police Chief Chuck Harmon a ring, two bracelets and a badge.
They belonged to Sgt. Thomas Baitinger and Officer Jeffrey Yaslowitz, who died from the wounds they sustained helping to serve a warrant on a man with a long criminal history.
"I'm having a hard time letting go of them," said Harmon, whose hands shook as he held the dead officers' mementos.
These were the latest police killings in a month that already proved fatal for 14 law officers across the nation. In just a 24-hour period between Sunday and Monday, 11 officers were shot in five states, according to the National Law Enforcement Officers Memorial Fund.
In the small city of St. Petersburg, officers, officials and residents were stunned by the morning's events.
Shortly before 7 a.m., a U.S. marshal, a Pinellas County deputy and an undercover St. Petersburg detective went to a home to arrest Hydra Lacy Jr., 39, on an aggravated battery charge. Officials confirmed late Monday that's who killed the two officers, wounded a third and then died - either by his own hand or by an officer's bullet.
Officials said Lacy had a long record, with convictions for armed robbery and sexual battery. He was listed with the state as a sex offender and had failed to register with authorities in December as required.
Police confirmed that Hydra Lacy Jr. was the brother of Jeff Lacy, former International Boxing Federation super middleweight champion.
Deputies had been seeking him since December.
"He was somebody we wanted to get off the streets, " the police chief said. "Who expects to walk into a house and get gunfire from the attic?"
The trio of officers knocked on the home's door and were told by a woman that Lacy was in the attic. Chief Harmon said the woman also told the officers that Lacy had a weapon.
The three called for backup and Yaslowitz and Baitinger responded. Yaslowitz was just getting off his night shift but showed up to help.
Twenty-two minutes later, gunfire broke out.
Authorities said Yaslowitz and a U.S. Marshals Service deputy - who is not being named under agency policy - were near the entrance to the attic when they called for the suspect to surrender.
The gunman in the attic fired on the officers, striking Yaslowitz. He fell wounded into the attic. The U.S. marshal was struck and fell to the first floor.
Other officers, including Sgt. Baitinger, were in the house and rescued the marshal. Baitinger was wearing a bulletproof vest, but was mortally wounded by gunfire through the ceiling. As gunfire erupted around them, other officers dragged Baitinger and the marshal out - but Yaslowitz was still in the attic.
A tactical team arrived and set up a perimeter. Hostage negotiators also showed up and talked intermittently with Lacy.
Sometime after 9 a.m., tactical teams entered the home, hoping to rescue Yaslowitz.

Bank Nationalization in Venezuela
A New York Times dispatch on bank nationalization in Venezuela reports that "Despite" the efforts by President Hugo Chavez "to assert greater state control over the economy, corruption in Venezuela is thriving by various measures." The word "despite" implies that this is somehow unexpected or puzzling, and that ordinarily more government control over the economy would lead to less corruption. In fact precisely the opposite is true, and the formulation discloses the assumptions of the Times reporter and editors.

Paul George is a great individual defender and he's made Anthony work all series, but Melo got the best of George last night. Melo's quick start was really important for his overall game; he scored nine points in the first quarter and hit a transition three, setting the tone for him early. Because Indiana likes to take away the 3-point game, they've really forced Anthony to create looks for himself in the mid range game.
In the fourth quarter, Anthony scored seven points and polished off the Pacers in typical Melo fashion. His Dirk-esque fadeaway coupled with his three made free throws put the nails into Indiana's coffin. One of the advantages the Knicks have had all season is the ability to go to Melo down the stretch of games. He's often delivered and did so again tonight. Big game for him.

El Ahmadi: We won't let Newcastle loss damage our confidence
Karim El Ahmadi insists Villa won't allow the defeat to Newcastle damage the confidence in the camp.
El Ahmadi says it is important the squad don't let the positive vibes from their impressive early-season performances dissipate after a frustrating afternoon against Alan Pardew's side.
But the Moroccan midfielder admits the claret and blues should have gone on to seize the initiative after Christian Benteke's equaliser in Saturday's clash at Villa Park.
Instead it was the Magpies who went on to grab the points, with substitute Yoan Gouffran scoring just five minutes after Benteke.
"We are very disappointed," said El Ahmadi.
"We didn't play a good game but still we could have had a draw or maybe win the game because at 1-1 it could have gone either way. But it didn't happen so it was very disappointing.
"We didn't have our best game. At 1-1 you could go on to win but we were unlucky with the second goal of Newcastle.
"In the first three games we played good but we have to look forward now to the other games and we will play against other teams who are fighting for points.
"It is not like our confidence has gone away because we have played good games so far even though this wasn't a good one. We have to be confident."

Exactly. The human genome hasn't changed for roughly 100,000 years. And I'm fairly sure 100,000 years ago humans weren't cultivating grain and growing crops of vegetables. The human diet has evolved around eating primarily red meat - we are supposed to eat it, and plenty of it.
Ahh bull****. I'm pretty sure the benefits of eating red meat far outweigh the bad. Steak is delicious, I'm going to keep eating it as humans have done forever.
People need to get off their asses and exercise. Avoiding certain foods, especially ones we've evolved to eat, isn't the answer to living healthily.

I have no problem with the new design and i had no problem with the old one. Both look nice to me

I have no problem with the new design and i had no problem with the old one. Both look nice to me
I think it looks great. Much better than the spinner belt.
I think it looks great. I will be happy when those brhama bulls get striped off the side of it though. It has a definate 2013 look to it. The other thing I like about it is how half of the IWC was complaining about the way it looked... before the rock even took the cover off of it...
I always hated the spinner belt. This one is better, but the best belt has always been the style that Yokozuna, Bret Hart & HBK wore.
Better than the spinner belt, not as cool as the old (Attitude, Winged, Undisputed). Still, I like it. It still has too many "jewels" to my taste, but the drastic reduction compared to the spinner is a huge step forward IMO.
By the way whoever it was that was convinced this was the side plate:
yeah........... :D
I like it. It gives an old-school feeling. :)
Never thought I'd miss the Spinner belt.
It looks like a plastic fake-gold plated toy one could buy in their local Walmart. Another dropped ball by the WWE. I'd be ashamed to even touch that toy looking thing and still be called Champion. The personalization of the belts needs to stop. Make a design that screams "Champion" and leave it alone.
And there I was, arguing with people about the leaked picture being a fake an how they wouldn't even consider such atrocity. Even the crowd was like -_- .
Too bad; they had a big chance to give their fans a respectable belt and something new to built prestige to.. Instead, they continue to focus on their sole demo and please the little ones with an awful diamonds belt that looks to be designed by Jay Z.

With $36.4 million in second week, 'Transformers' edges 'Tammy' on weak July 4 weekend
Jake Coyle, The Associated Press 0
NEW YORK, N.Y. – "Transformers: Age of Extinction" beat out Melissa McCarthy's "Tammy" on a weak July 4th weekend at the box office.
According to studio estimates Sunday, the fourth "Transformers" film made $36.4 million in its second week of release. It's a steep drop for the Paramount Pictures sequel, which had the year's biggest debut last weekend with $100 million.
The New Line comedy "Tammy," released by Warner Bros., took in $21.2 million in its opening weekend, well below expectations. The Midwest road trip romp opened on Wednesday, and had a $32.9 million gross over its first five days.
Sony Screen Gem's horror flick "Deliver Us From Evil" came in third with $9.5 million in its debut.

Snapchat issues an apology for the security that affected 4.6 million users.
The UpTake: Snapchat is closing the books on the data breach that affected millions of users with a simple apology, although not one attributed to founder Evan Spiegel.
Snapchat has issued a formal apology for a security breach that exposed the usernames and phone numbers of 4.6 million Snapchat accounts.
The simple mea culpa, accompanying details about security updates, is credited to Team Snapchat. Here's the apology part.
Our team continues to make improvements to the Snapchat service to prevent future attempts to abuse our API. We are sorry for any problems this issue may have caused you and we really appreciate your patience and support.
Whether it satisfies critics who called for Evan Spiegel to make a public apology is another question. Spiegel gave one interview to the Today show on the breach, but did not apologize.
Here's Dan Primack, a senior editor at Fortune, writing about Spiegel's approach to the problem.
If Evan Spiegel is disinclined to apologize, or doesn't feel he should, then perhaps he really isn't up for the job. Whenever a 20-something CEO is replaced in Silicon Valley, people often say that he has been replaced by an "adult." It's usually both paternalistic and patronizing, but perhaps appropriate when the 20-something is not mature enough to say "I'm sorry."
On the flip side, GigaOM founder Om Malik has a more charitable take on the Snapchat founder. Namely, this and other episodes—like a dustup up with Forbes—are the same kind of growing pains that Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg went through.
Have we forgotten that Zuckerberg showed up late at Sequoia Capital's offices in pajamas. Have we forgotten that at one point all Facebook was a "way to look up one's friends on the college campus" and the so called vision was no-where in sight. Remember how long it took Facebook to say sorry for unleashing Beacon? Remember Zuck's business card — I'm the CEO b****h. Compare that to the Zuckerberg of today — polished and smooth and running a mega-billion dollar company like a pro.

France honours D-Day veterans
Wing Commander (Ret'd) Ron Butcher, an air navigator during WWII was recently presented with the Legion Medal of Honour by the Government of France. He is one of 360 Canadians, as well other WWII military personnel from other Allied countries who took part in the D-Day landings on the beaches of Normandy, France. June 6, 2014 marked the 70th anniversary of the invasion in France.
One of Sackville's native sons has been given the highest honour conferred by the Government of France for his part in the D-Day landings in Normandy in 1944, during World War II.
Wing Commander (Ret'd) Ron Butcher was one of 360 Canadian World War II veterans who are being honoured for taking part in the D-Day landings in Normandy in June, 1944 which contributed greatly to the conclusion of the war. Butcher talked recently by phone from his home in Victoria, BC.
"I thought it was a nice gesture, even though it was 70 years later….I had been notified that it was effective as of March 27 but actually received the Legion of Honour medal on June 1. I wasn't able to travel to Vancouver for the awards ceremony so it was delivered to me," he said.
Ron Butcher, who has for many years made his home in British Columbia, grew up on his families' small farm in Middle Sackville in the 1920s, during those years occasionally helping his father in his local construction business. As a young man he worked at J.L. Black and Sons, a wholesale grocery, flour and feed business earning $1 per day for each 11-hour workday, six days per week.
Tired of the long hours and scanty paycheques, Butcher then spent a couple years working for his father before joining the Royal Canadian Air Force in January, 1942.
With WWII well underway Butcher, along with many other young men in the area, including his brother Charlie, felt the desire to serve his country. A visit to a local recruiting office led him to choose service with the RCAF and so it was off to boot camp in Toronto before being shipped to England for further training. Finally assigned to aircraft bomber duty, Butcher was to take part in 29 operational trips bombing a number of areas in Germany, including Berlin and Nuremburg, among others, in preparation for D-Day. He was an air navigator, completing a tour of operations on Lancaster bombers in 6 (RCAF) Group of the RAF Bomber Command, serving with 408 RCAF Goose Squadron, and was later awarded the Distinguished Flying Cross (DFC).
Butcher said that receiving the Legion of Honour medal has brought back a lot of war-time memories, some of which were particularly harrowing.
"I could look down and see the D-Day armada in the water and that was just through a chance break in the cloud, because that day it was very overcast and cloudy. When we saw that (happening on the beaches below) that was the first knowledge we had that it was D-Day. They sent us out to bomb and didn't tell us (about the ongoing invasion of Normandy). There was a cloak of silence (over the entire D-Day operation)…and properly so," he said.
He recalled that at the time he had an overwhelming feeling of suspense and excitement.
"You should have heard the noise in our aircraft; all the people were talking at once…it was a very exciting day…we thought it was going to be a day that would lead at least to a foothold in Europe. We didn't really think beyond that," he remembered.
Butcher said he remembers thinking that, seeing all of the men and machinery making their way from the water onto the beaches of Normandy, it was going to be a bloody offensive.
"We had the feeling that those poor buggers down there on the sand were going through their baptism of fire," he said.
Butcher's plane remained undamaged throughout its bombing flight that day, he recalled.
"Actually, the D-Day trips we did were the easiest ones of all. There was no opposition; there were no enemy aircraft around, just some sporadic fire from the ground – and they missed," he said.
He remembered seeing a 'sky train' of paratroopers, groups of plans loaded with Allied men flying to where they would be dropped to fight at locations behind the Normandy beaches.
"Just going along, going to where they were headed for. We were on the way back (to Yorkshire, England) when we saw them. We did one trip before breakfast and another one after dinner…we had one more trip on June 10th and then we were screened from operations; we had finished our required trips," he said.
Butcher said except for the brief glimpse of the huge offensive taking place on the ground below them, they were unaware of how the entire operation was playing out.
"When we got back to base from the evening trip, we had a feeling that everything was OK…there was no official information made available to us until after the fact (when the landings had been completed)," he said.
The Normandy invasion included initial infiltration through parachute landings, massive attacks by air, naval bombardments and amphibious landings of men and machinery at five separate beaches along the French coastline at Normandy.
After the war Butcher worked in a number of occupations while still as a member of the military and later as a civilian.
Over the years he was married and widowed twice and became a father of two boys, Rod (Roderick) and Don (Donald), both of whom are now deceased. He also has a daughter Brenda and two adult granddaughters. In 2002 he met Veronica Bennett, a former member of the Women's Auxiliary Air Force and the pair was married a year later. The couple, who enjoys travelling whenever they can, has recently moved to a retirement community near Victoria.
In 2006 Ron Butcher wrote a book about his life experiences, entitled "Been There, Done That – Through Treacherous Skies," describing his many life experiences. Veronica Bennett Butcher is also the author of 'From Veronica With Love: From Waif to WAAF to Wife – A Story of Survival.'

This letter is in reference to the editorial cartoon "If Mother Nature were a Republican" published February 16.
Arguably the greatest problem facing our nation is the polarization of the population into entrenched ideologies that refuse to discuss issues and reach common ground for solutions. The SDN has encouraged those ideologies, both right and left, by publishing the cartoon that portrays Republicans as selfish and uncaring. It appears to suggest "I got mine and I hope you don't get yours." It plays into a political theater that denigrates Republicans.

Agent Provocateur's non-celebrity campaigns can be a little weird, but this is the weirdest. And Pixie Geldof is in it. Does she count as a celebrity? Either way, she's willing to work with centaurs. Seriously. Furry centaurs. Couldn't they get the centaurs from Harry Potter?
There are some sweet pieces in this collection, but also some stuff you could easily get at Victoria's Secret or Frederick's of Hollywood.
Click through for more pictures, including Pixie as a pixie.
Is this an unflattering angle for Pixie? Or is she just too slim to really do justice to the corset?
Our favorite pieces in the collection, the lace would look cheap from anywhere less expensive but AP always does it nicely.

Origami Shadow Art of Actual Faces
Posted on June 21, 2012 by saya
Well, I bet most visitors in front of the screen are now focusing their attention on the colorful paper, even without noticing the unique shadow on the left side… However, what you ignored is actually what we emphasized. Working with shadows and light, artist Kumi Yamashita has created these paper origami pieces that reveal actual faces on their sides, and right here you can see 22 pieces, which stimulate Kumi's 22 employee faces.

"My, how you've grown." Most childhoods are littered with this and similar proclamations from elderly relatives and, for most, the only appropriate response is to look coyly at one's shoes, wishing the moment past and certainly doing absolutely nothing to allude to the phrase's vaguely adult connotations.
But there's nothing coy about Sonic Boom Six. This year sees the ska-punk outfit celebrate their seventh birthday with the release of their third studio album, City of Thieves. Making three studio albums is as much as most bands dare aspire to but this particular milestone is no simple tick in the box for the Manchester group.
Released on the band's own label, Rebel Alliance Recordings, Back 2 Skool is the second single taken from City of Thieves following July's The Concrete We're Trapped Within. Sandwiched between the two single releases have been European tour dates and the small matter of opening the main stage at Leeds and Reading festivals.
In so many ways, 2009 is a proving to be landmark year for Sonic Boom Six as the band continues to grow in both stature and pedigree. The sound of City of Thieves balances the anti-establishment adolescent angst of punk with a depth that only seven years on the road and two prior albums can bring and the Back 2 Skool release reflects this musical maturity.
The lead track is a masterclass in urban sassiness – a gritty 21st century counterpart to Madness's schoolyard classic Baggy Trousers and containing all of Sonic Boom Six's trademark energy. Guitars rhyme and bounce and fight with the percussion for playground bragging rights whilst Laila K's unmistakable voice crowns the heady mix. Second track, The Dangers of Rock'n'Roll, is classic SB6; a casual marriage of ska influences and punk rock sensibilities bursting with life, flavour and urban knowhow.
The third song on the CD is an acoustic offering and it is a gem. Floating Away is neatly constructed, effortlessly delivered and is also the final track of City of Thieves. It joins Back 2 Skool and the Dangers of Rock'n'Roll in around ten minutes of music which eloquently illustrates the depth and skill embodied in Sonic Boom Six.
In these ten minutes, there is light and dark, love and hate, crashing breakers and still waters. All the colours of the rainbow are here and the band's legendary appetite for hard work and harder partying seems to be paying off with music of resonance and consequence.
Sonic Boom Six have outlived so many contemporaries, in Manchester and far beyond, and signs are there's yet better to come. My, how they've grown.

All across the SECC in Glasgow this weekend the air is thick with dreams of a new life far away from Scotland.
Loading article content
Up to 4000 visitors are expected at the Emigrate show, an exhibition designed to do one thing: help people leave the country of their birth … and business is booming.
"People have migrated for centuries. But an industry has now sprung up. It's much more organised but it's
definitely a lot harder," says Mike Schwartz, managing director of JP Events and Exhibition, which is running the emigration show.
"You can sit and look at the New Zealand government website but at the end of the day you want to talk to somebody and say, 'I'm a plumber and my wife's a nurse, have we any hope of getting in to New Zealand?'
The typical visitors are young families, who list securing a better future for their children as the main reason for leaving Scotland – along with, of course, the weather.
According to the government, between mid-2007 and mid-2008 30,800 Scots moved abroad. In the same period, 38,500 people moved to
Scotland from overseas. Around 200,000 UK citizens emigrate annually.
The most popular destination is Australia, followed by Canada and then New Zealand. A smaller number also leave for America.
Tight visa rules based on your profession govern whether dreams can be realised – healthcare workers and skilled tradesman have the best chance.
But the recession means things are changing. Last month, Australia's immigration minister Chris Evans introduced tweaks to legislation designed to preserve jobs for Aussies. Last year 170,000 people from across the world applied to live there – but there were just 108,100 visas.
Darren Chatt, from Edinburgh-based emigration specialists Visa-Go, said: "The Australian government is making a lot of changes that we expect to make it a lot harder, but New Zealand is making it easier." The Kiwi government has just upped the total number of visas for foreign workers each year.
Paul Wildy runs Wildy Immigration, which specialises in emigration to Canada. He said: "A lot of people have decided they want to leave the UK and are looking for somewhere to go. People come to Canada because they are looking for somewhere with seasons, cheaper and bigger housing, they are impressed with the education and health care is free."
But the grass is not always greener on the other side of the world. It is estimated around 25% of emigrants later return to the UK, and experts say mostly it is because they have not done their research – like the man who emigrated to Alice Springs to work as a roofer. After his first day on the job, working in 45°C heat, he collapsed.
It is also not uncommon for people to yo-yo back and forth.
The Mortons, from Aberdeen, moved to Rockingham, Western Australia, in 1988. But they returned to Scotland four years later after missing family, before returning to Oz in 1999.
Gloria Morton, 50, a teaching assistant, said: "Being a little bit older and our kids being old enough to decide for themselves that they wanted to go meant the second time was more successful."
But daughter Arran, 26, has now returned to Scotland, splitting the family once more.
However, for many there is no coming back to the UK. Lisa Cannon, 32, swapped Strathclyde Police for Western Australia Police in 2008.
"We lived in a three-bedroom semi with a wee square garden; here I have a four-bedroom [house] with a cinema room and a pool," she said. "We love the laid-back lifestyle, the sun."
Though a move Down Under is the most common exit, the American Dream also lures many.
Hadleigh International helps people move to the US by buying a business, which costs from around $100,000 (about £66,000). Its director, John Dimmock, expects to get up to 30 inquiries over the weekend.
Scots who have made it in America say it is hard work but worth it.
Siobhan McFadyen, 32, from Coatbridge, who now lives in New York, said: "The US is a place that appreciates hard work. It can be a very tough place to live and since the exchange rate dropped it has become super expensive, for example a loaf of bread costs £2.63! But I would say go for it."

There were huge discussions about the 30 something actress living with her parents and actress sister Shamita Shetty and being accompanied by her mother for all business meetings, tours and shoots.
The screen beauty was not too happy about this tag from the western media. She quickly hit back by insisting that this is only about having a close knit family. "It's purely for emotional reasons. After a hard day's work, I need someone I can come home to. I don't travel with mum because I'm a baby," she retorted.
Shilpa's spokesperson Dale Bhagwagar leaps to her defense. "There are two basic reasons for the same, the first being the fact that Shilpa's mum is like her best friend. Secondly if her mum is around, Shilpa can be somewhat laidback as she looks into the nitty-gritty of all things. In a way it must feel like home for her. When she had joined "Big Brother", it was the first time she was traveling alone abroad and was without her mom for so many days at a stretch. Shilpa enjoys her mom's company. And her mom too is also a very chirpy bubby and happy go lucky person who talks and even yaps at times. It won't be an understatement to say that she is even bubblier than Shilpa and puts one at complete ease."
"Her mum accompanies her sister Shamita too, but then Shamita is much more independent and outgoing. She is much stronger. If she doesn't like somebody doing something, she quickly disciplines the other person. While Shilpa can't do that, she is too simple, sweet and extremely gullible. Sometimes if Sunanda Shetty is busy traveling with Shilpa, their dad travels with Shamita,"ť adds Bhagwagar.
Shilpa is not alone. In Bollywood most actresses are known for being their mums' darlings. Kareena Kapoor is mostly seen around with her mother Babita, Priyanka">Priyanka Chopra">Priyanka">Priyanka Chopra and mum Dr Madhu Chopra are almost always together and there is Ayesha Takia whose constant companion is mommy Farida.
Aishwarya Rai Bachchan has been known for her closeness to her mum Vrinda (more so before she became the Bachchan bahu). In fact when she had gone to the Oprah Winfrey show some two years ago, she was asked by the surprised host as to how at 30 she was still staying with her folks. Aishwarya went on to explain the stunned Oprah the intricacies of our culture.
Rani Mukherji and Esha Deol's closeness to their respective mums Krishna and Hema Malini is not hidden either. These girls are known to discuss all their professional decisions with their mothers.
In fact, certain sections of people have actually joked about "Bollywood actresses being handled by their mums" in various forums and
blogs. Mainly because staying with one's parents and traveling with
them after a certain age is alien behavior in the West and is against
their idea of independence. It's a part of Indian culture which they
can't really comprehend.
Explains Bhagwagar,"In the West, children and siblings move out of home once they reach a certain age. But that doesn't happen here since we are more attached to our parents. Not that they don't love their parents, but I think Shilpa and the rest are kind of upholding that very culture. Some people even here might feel a little uncomfortable about being accompanied by parents for business meetings and shoots. But Shilpa loves her parents so much that she can never take things that way."

Watch out for the latest news from Dusit Thani Pattaya

Alton Towers is giving away 100 free fast track passes to the Smiler
Posted: July 09, 2014|
TO celebrate the summer football season, some of the most famous rides and attractions at Alton Towers Resort have been battling it out to win its very own Whirled Cup competition and today, The Smiler has been voted the winner.
Competing to be crowned the best ride at the theme park, some of Alton Towers Resort's most iconic rides - including The Smiler, Oblivion, Nemesis and Rita – have been going head to head in an online poll.
To celebrate the victory of its newest rollercoaster, Alton Towers Resort is offering The Smiler fastracks completely free of charge to the first 100 people to quote the winning ride at the Resort Box Office on Sunday 13th May – World Cup Final day.
The Smiler triumphed with 52 per cent of the vote in a close fought battle with Nemesis.
Since launching in May 2013, The Smiler, which is the world's first 14 loop coaster, has been ridden by over 2 million people and travelled over four million miles in its first year of opening.
The Smiler cost £18 million to build, is twice the size of Nemesis and has a track length three times the length of Oblivion. Combining a series of twisted psychological effects with plunging drops and its world beating 14 loops, The Smiler is the most intense ride experience at the popular theme park.
Earlier this year, The Smiler was scientifically proven to provide the greatest thrill of the six biggest coasters at Alton Towers Resort.
Thrill engineer Brendan Walker tested the rides against a number of criteria with The Smiler topping the scoreboard as it provided thrill seekers with the greatest range of maximum and minimum points in both 'pleasure' and 'arousal'.
Let us know if you win one of the passes.

Hi there. If you'd like to co-curate one of our shows, you're in the right place. This is now a tried-and-true process˚; in 2013, we had 15 different curators! It goes like this:
- Send an email to submit AT quietlightning DOT org
- Tell us why you want to put a show together.
- Tell us why you're qualified. This can include any number of things: a fortune spent on formal education, attendance at a large number of Quiet Lightnings, you've written 10,000 poems this year… endless, really, are the potential qualifications.
- Curating a show requires a commitment of, at minimum, 12 hours of intensive focus—often more, and in a specific window of time (our submissions usually close at the end of the Wednesday three weeks before each show, and everything needs to be decided by mid-afternoon of the following Sunday).
- Curating precludes you from submitting. This should be obvious, but needs saying.
After you send us a note with the above information (and commitment), we will send you a confirmation email and review your application. It doesn't need to be formal at all. We will start a collection of interested parties, an, each month's curator (who will be either a Quiet Lightning board member or staff member) will be allowed to choose whoever they want as a co-curator; they do not have to choose from the pile of people expressing interest, but will have those applications to consider.
˚ Until December 2012, at our three-year anniversary show, curators were decided based on frequency and availability. Now, in addition to the five board members and original board member Charles Kruger, curators have included Nicole McFeely, Ceri Bevan, SB Stokes, Sandra Wassilie, Christian Lee, Sarah Griff, Janey Smith, D.W. Lichtenberg, Kelsey Schimmelman, Lauren Traetto, Katie Wheeler-Dubin, Ian Tuttle, Spencer Kaidi, Sarah Ciston, Sarah Carpenter, Emma Smith, Lapo Guzzini, Caroline Kessler, Allison Hummel, Sara Marinelli, Shideh Etaat, Sean Taylor, Alexandra Kostoulas, Nora Toomey, Christine No, Gianna Badiali, and David Welper.
i want to curate!

[…] Next month, on December 3rd, we will celebrate 3 years of Quiet Lightning. Hard to believe. Easy to celebrate. We're accepting submissions through the end of Wednesday, November 14th. Send all submissions here. We are proud and more than a little excited to announce SB Stokes and Meghan Thornton will curate that show. This marks the first time a non-board member, non-committee head will join forces for the selection process. If you're interested in being one of the people who puts together the shows, here's more information. […]

The Zimbabwe Mining Development Corporation has dismissed reports it has partnered listed diversified group Meikles Limited to mine diamonds in the Marange fields. Unconfirmed reports had said the two parties were allocated a piece of land on the confluence of the Odzi and Save rivers in the diamond-rich area.
"There is no partnership to mine diamonds between ZMDC and Meikles. They (Meikles) have probably applied to the ZMDC management to be considered for a joint venture," ZMDC board chairman Mr Godwills Masimirembwa said.
Last year, Meikles announced that it had formed a mining arm, Meikles Resources. According to the group's interim results for the period to September 30, profits from Meikles Resources were expected to exceed those anticipated for the entire group.
ZMDC is already in diamond mining joint ventures with Chinese investors Anjin Investments, Diamond Mining Corporation and Mbada Diamonds.
According to a report in Forbes Magazine, Zimbabwe has the bright future in the diamond industry and could easily supply 25 percent of the world's supply by value and 30 percent by volume by 2015.
A leading local research firm Equity Communications also said the country accounted for 8,9 percent of global rough diamond production in 2011, producing 11,1 million carats out of 125,6 million carats produced globally.

Editors' note, June 17, 2015: This review has been updated with new pricing information.
With its completely revamped interface, TuneIn Radio Pro for Android makes it easier than ever to listen to streaming radio while you're on the move. Not to be confused with an algorithm-driven service like Pandora, TuneIn lets you listen in on more than 100,000 AM/FM and Internet stations, plus 2 million on-demand programs from around the globe. It is, quite frankly, the best such streaming-radio app I've used. There is also a free (non-Pro) version of the app, but the Pro version offers DVR-like functions for $9.99.
From the Browse page, you can browse through local radio, recommended stations, different language offerings, sports stations like ESPN, podcasts, and so much more. Tap the Music button, and you'll get an exhaustive list of categories like Classical, Hip-Hop, Reggae, and Oldies. No matter which path you choose, you will be impressed by the number of different stations available through the app.
