IF science is the 20th century's greatest collective work of art, the big bang theory of cosmic evolution is surely its magnum opus. A self-consistent synthesis of observational astronomy, chemistry, particle physics, biology and geology, this theory gives a remarkably unified description of the Universe from its first squillionth of a second up to the present and beyond. What is more, it is framed in ideas that scientists can test on Earth. A hundred years ago, who would have believed that such an ambitious theory would be possible?
In 1983, when the great American physicist Steven Weinberg published

Warmoth offers a range of fret sizes and materials to suit every player. Use the information below to determine the fret wire that works best for you. Dunlop fret numbers are provided for reference only. Actual fret measurements will vary slightly from batch to batch.
This is our standard fret wire. It is drawn from the finest 18% hard nickel/silver to give long life with steel strings. The composition of this fret wire, while called "nickel/silver," contains no silver at all. The ingredients are brass and nickel. Our nickel/silver fretwire is rated at HV 170 on the Vickers hardness scale.
This is our premium fret wire. Stainless Steel is both harder and smoother than nickel/silver fretwire, offering superior longevity and a quick, glassy feel with negligible effect on tone. This makes it a great choice for those who use round-wound strings - notoriously hard on frets. Our top-quality, German-made Jescar fretwire is rated at HV 300 (+/-20) on the Vickers hardness scale.
Our beautiful gold fretwire is a nickel-free copper alloy similar in color to 12k gold. This top-quality, German-made Jescar EVO wire is solid throughout and will never turn brassy or look worn. It is almost as hard as stainless steel and polishes up nicely for a super-fast, glass-like feel. Rated at HV 250 (+/-20) on the Vickers hardness scale.
NOTE: Our gold fret wire is EVO hypo-allergenic for those that have allergies to nickel.
Choosing a fret size is easy. Do you like the feel of the frets on your present neck? Would you like more height or less height? Do you press down firmly or lightly on your strings? We've listed some additional information below to help you with your selection.

Whilst exploring two nature reserves in the Qinling Range, the beautiful birds to be found here will not be ignored, and will certainly feature as part of our daily highlights. These avian treasures include the brilliant Golden Pheasant, the rare Temminck's Tragopan, Red-billed Leiothrix, Golden-breasted Fulvetta, and the strange looking Great Parrotbill. The Chinese Crested Ibis will no doubt be high on many of our wish lists, and we will make a concerted effort to see this exceedingly endangered bird by visiting one of their roosting sites.
Aside from the awesome natural spectacles, China is also steeped in history and our tour includes several interesting aspects of China's past. The most notable of these is a visit to the marvellous Terra Cotta Warriors and Horses Museum; a world cultural heritage site and one of the greatest archaeological discoveries of the 20th century. This incredible voyage will take us into several seldom-visited areas where the beauty of the natural scenery and wildlife will simply overwhelm the senses!

First News Winter 2010
Let Me Tell You A Story...
Eugene C. Vories was born in Walsenburg and lucky enough to spend
most of his growing up on the family's (Capps) ranch near Pryor. The ranch stretched
all the way from the foot of the East Spanish Peak to the flat country east of I-25
and was owned by Eugene's uncle, Harry J. Capps who was also Sheriff of Huerfano
County for many years. His father, Eugene S. Vories, was Walsenburg's Postmaster.
It was over these formative years that an impressionable Eugene developed his love
of ranching and the independent cowboy lifestyle.
Eugene C. remembers, "In those days everything was done either
on foot or horseback; there were no pickups or stock trailers. At that time, my
uncle pastured cattle for other ranchers. As a boy, my aunt loved to read to me,
and had some very good books for young boys. Maybe that's what started me thinking
I wanted to write. I've been writing western novels for a long time now. My first,
Arrowhead Ranch, was published in 1959 and The Man From Colorado in 1960, so I thought
I was off to the races. Both books were also printed in Great Britain and the Man
from Colorado became my first paperback to be printed in Italian. I pointed to it
with pride saying, 'I wrote it but I can't read it.'"
Vories continues, "I had three more books published by New York
or big city publishers, but was never happy with those folks. After years of trying,
I sold a book, Ride The Rough String, to a Salt Lake City publisher thinking I was
out of that New York market. The publisher printed the first three thousand copies
and declared bankruptcy. I bought the books from the court and began selling them
myself using my Christmas card list. I learned a lot, but decided if I was going
to do that, I might just as well start publishing my own books. One great thing
about that is I've never had a manuscript rejected by the publisher. I've published
ten books now under the trade name, Vories Family Publishers, Eugene C. Vories,
Author. Most of them are set in Walsenburg, La Veta and Trinidad. My books are in
three series. What I call the Monte series are present day novels about an old cowman
who sells his business and ranching interest on the western slope and retires on
the ranch near La Veta. They're humorous stories about an old cowboy and his escapades
with widows, bankers, forest rangers, oilmen and newcomers. The Button Benton series
is set in the late 1800s. It starts with Mr. Grant's Cowboy, a fourteen-year old
who takes a job on the Grant Ranch to learn to become a cowboy, and goes through
his growing up to Ride For The Brand, Deputy, and The Dark Trail. Two books, Piñon
Mesa and Return to Piñon Mesa are set on the western slope where I ranched for many
years and are about the sheep wars and later, land development. My latest, Return
To The Arrowhead is about a character in my first book who goes back East for several
years then returns to the ranch he loved."
"I write fiction about the kind of real people who lived and worked
in the West to make this country what it is and try to put some history in, as I,
or my family, remembers it. I don't write shoot 'em ups, so if you're interested,
and will send me your mailing address, I'll send a flyer with prices and ordering
information on my self-published books. A lot of people seem to like the way I tell
a story."

Skinny Mini Banana Muffins
This day is bananas. B-A-N-A-N-A-S.
This day is bananas. B-A-N-A-N-A-S.
Ever since I made these muffins TWO days ago, I've had this song in my head. Make it stooooooop! I think this song would be better than two days of the banana song.
Actually. I take that back. Richard Simmons singing his 80's workout is painful. Hilarious…and very painful.
ANYWAYS, I've had the Gwen Stefani song in my head because I made skinny mini banana muffins. I very loosely based them off this recipe, but added in bananas and only used maple syrup as the sweetener instead of white or brown sugar. These also only call for two egg whites, olive oil and whole wheat flour. I promised you skinny and these fit the bill! I promise they are moist, sweet and lovely! Plus only 48 calories each with 1 gram of fat.
Diet approved These little guys didn't last long at our house and most likely won't last long at yours.
Here's how you make them: Start by combining all the dry ingredients together in a large bowl. Lots of common looking items here! Set this aside. Now, mash 2 very ripe bananas until smooth…or pretty much smooth if you don't mind chunks. You'll also want to measure out some REAL maple syrup, olive oil, vanilla and egg whites. Create a well in the dry ingredients and stir in the wet and mashed banana until just combined. Scoop into mini muffin tins sprayed with nonstick cooking spray and bake 8-10 minutes or until just done. Mine were ready to pull right at 10 minutes. Wait a couple minutes before pulling them out of the pan and then enjoy! You can smear yours with a little butter or just pop them into your mouth plain! They make a great healthy breakfast or snack. Try them this weekend! Enjoy, friends!
Skinny Mini Banana Muffins
Yield: 30 mini muffins
Prep Time: 15 minutes
Cook Time: 10 minutes
Total Time: 25 minutes
½ cup whole wheat flour
¾ cup all purpose flour
¾ teaspoon baking soda
1 1/2 teaspoons cinnamon
½ teaspoon nutmeg
¼ teaspoon salt
2 very ripe bananas, mashed {about 1 1/4 cups}
1/2 cup real maple syrup
2 tablespoons light olive oil
2 lg egg whites
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spray mini muffin tins with nonstick cooking spray and set aside.
In large bowl, stir dry ingredients together until combined. In separate bowl, whisk maple syrup, olive oil, egg whites and vanilla together until combined. Form a well in dry ingredients. Pour in mashed banana and wet ingredients. Stir until just combined. Spoon into prepared pans and bake 10 minutes or until just cooked. Cool 3-5 minutes before removing from muffin tins. Serve warm or store at room temperature for up to 3 days.

My 12 yr old said to me a few weeks ago "we watched a workout video in our PE class today..it was weird. the guy was really happy about working out but the video was really old." hmmm "was his name Richard Simmons?" "yeah that was it". Yeah I remember those days! lol
Can't wait to try these, thanks!
Loved these! Made a few changes, though — used 1/3 c brown sugar instead of the maple syrup (didn't have any), and added a little ground ginger and ground cardomom to the batter, and chopped up some crystallized ginger and stirred in as "ginger chips" at the end.
I really appreciate the precision of the recipe. Timing was right on the money!
I'll be making these whenever the bananas start to look overripe. Thanks!
Had some overripe bananas and didn't want to throw them out, so I tried these little cuties. Had no whole wheat flour, so used only AP instead. OMG! They turned out great! Our eldest of 5 usually doesn't like cake, but even he devoured them in seconds (as did his little brother). I had to hide a few so my husband could try them as well when he got home. Will definitely make them again. Soon. Would make them again tomorrow, but I have no more overripe bananas… Thanks so much for sharing this recipe! Greetings, all the way from Belgium

by TheDorsalFin on Jul.31, 2011 at 10:37 am, under Shark News Stories
Discovery Channel's "Shark Week", hosted by Andy Samberg, begins tonight on the Discovery Channel. "Great White Invasion" airs at 9pm, followed by "Jaws Comes Home" at 10pm.
"Great White Invasion" will follow Chris Fallows and a team of scientists who are trying to figure out why white sharks are "suddenly" being seen "in large numbers" among swimmers and surfers along the coasts of South Africa, Australia, and California.
"Jaws Come Home" documents researcher Greg Skomal's 2010 tracking study of five Atlantic white sharks tagged off of Chatham, Massachusetts. Skomal's goal is to better understand the sharks migration up and down the eastern coast of the U.S. through tracking data obtained from satellite tags.
I believe sharks used to avoid people because they didn't know what we were or if we were a threat. Sharks travel from one beach and/or area to the next and because of the diving industry and scientists both chumming the water to attract them, it has caused them to relate people to food. Because of these close encounters they now know we are not a threat and relate people to food. Now they go anywhere people are in the water and gravitate to boat sounds looking for food. The young sharks learn from their elders so each generation of sharks will now always do this. Hence more and more sharks at beaches and around boats forever. Thanks a lot.

FireTerp & Wreckchecker head west from MD to - Dunno yet

Ungeneer to broked stuff.

Oddometer: 2,943
We are back to the land of cell phone signals and wifi connections' , so can start updating the thread again. We've got lots of photos and this will take several sessions.
After a day of this we traveled from Yellowstone to Glacier National Parks. Gee, they looked so close on a map.
Got sandwiches and such in West Glacier, entered the park, and this is where we had lunch on Lake McDonald:
Had our rock skipping contest. Tim won.
Celebrating his win.
Going to The Sun Road.
Unfortunately this is as far as we got. For those knowing Glacier, Going To The Sun Road was closed at the Avalanche rest area, due to snow removal ahead. Again, this is mid-June, and we heard that last year it took till July. We understand that the road did open last Friday for the 2012 season. W felt a bit robbed, as we both were looking forward to it. The up side is that we now have a reason to return.
So we left Glacier and headed up 93(?) through the. town of Eureka, MT, to the Canadian border, eh. Zero traffic. Took off our helmets, sat and pleasantly chatted with the Canadian Customs agent with nobody else behind us or around. Truly a pleasant experience. Meanwhile, over our left shoulder was the US entry and it looked like a top secret entrance for some sci fi movie, with all the barricades and bright yellow paint. Those nasty Canookians better not try to invade the U.S. here! ;)
More to come, as we've now gotten to the Icefields Parkway, Jasper, Hyder in Alaska, and are drying out in Smithers, BC, working our way toward Seattle.

WEST LAFATETTE –- Is that right? Is pass-happy Purdue really leading the Big Ten in rushing?
Better believe it.
Thanks to the nearly 400 rushing yards totaled against Southeast Missouri State, the Boilers average 258.7 yards rushing. That's better than Wisconsin, Michigan, Ohio State and everybody else.
The Boilers do it by committee. Ralph Bolden leads with 223 yards. Akeem Shavers has 186. Six other players have rushed for at least 32 yards. As a team they average 5.6 yards a carry and have rushed for nine touchdowns.
Why the running success?
In part, coach Danny Hope said, it's necessity. Last year's rash of quarterback injuries forced the Boilers into more of a running mode. More quarterback injuries this year (Rob Henry is out for the season with a ACL injury; Robert Marve has only now returned from complications from last year's knee surgery.
"We had so many injuries at the quarterback position," he said, "we had to expand the run game to compete. We've picked up from that.
"We have a good offensive line, good backs. Cornell Jackson is a tough, hard-nosed running back coach. He's hung his hat on ball security, blocking, receiving and toughness. We have tough running backs who want to win and who execute their role. We'll feature the run."
Purdue (2-1) will next feature that run when it hosts Notre Dame on Oct. 1. Hope said coaches have been out of town recruiting. Preparations for the Irish will begin Thursday.
Wide-open guy
Purdue defensive end Robert Maci will never be confused with Ryan Kerrigan, the former Boiler All-America defensive end now thriving with the Washington Redskins. But Maci is leading Purdue with four tackles for loss and two sacks (for minus-21 yards) among his nine tackles. Not bad for a guy who is not listed as a starter.
"He's a smart player and he's always been a great effort guy," Hope said. "He's older now. He's bigger, stronger and more mature physically. He holds up better on the line of scrimmage. He's always had a knack for finding the ball and making plays. He's a wide-open type of guy and it's important to have those type of guys on the field."
Getting physical
Antavian Edison's play-making ability could make a big impact the rest of the way. He's a receiver with a tailback mindset and sprinter's speed.
The 5-11, 175-pound junior has caught six passes for 137 yards, a team-leading average of 22.8 yards a catch. He's also rushed eight times for 41 yards, just over 5 yards a carry.
"He probably still thinks he's a running back," Hope said. "He's always been fast and had courage, but he's become a more physical player. He's not the biggest or strongest blocker, but he has a lot more fight about him now.
"He's turned into a more physical runner. He's more detailed in his routes. He's become more accountable off the field. He's grown up a lot."
Making an impression
Tight end Crosby Wright has taken advantage of Gabe Holmes' knee injury. In three games Wright has six catches for 80 yards. Holmes has played in one game and has one catch for 11 yards.
Wright, a junior, arrived in West Lafayette in 2008 as a walk-on. He didn't play that season or the following one. Last year he played in all 12 games as a special teams player.
"He's a good player," Hope said. "He came to us via a walk-on and I don't believe he had a real extensive high school career. He's always gotten after it. He's a smart guy and a guy, when you showed him how to do something, he could turn right around and emulate you almost to the letter. I'm very impressed with how well he picks things up. He's very easy to coach."

Radioactive Groundwater at Fukushima Close to Reaching Pacific Ocean
The Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant which suffered from multiple meltdowns in the wake of the earthquake and tsunami which hit Japan in 2011 is once again making news. According to Tepco, the firm which runs the plant, radiation levels in groundwater surrounding the facility have risen significantly over the past week.
The company has been dousing its reactors in water to keep them cool since the disaster happened more than two years ago, but this has led to a build up in contaminated groundwater. The firm has made plans to channel to the water into the Ocean. Local fishermen have objected to the plans, citing obvious concerns for the local environment. This week's rise in groundwater radiation levels suggests that water containing highly toxic nuclear waste is now close to spilling out into the Pacific Ocean.
Radiation rise at Fukushima say TEPCO by reuters
Today also saw the news that Masao Yoshida, the engineer in charge at Fukushima who led efforts to stabilise the reactors immediately after the disaster, has died of cancer. Tepco has denied that his illness was caused by radiation from the plant, but many people will surely find this difficult to believe.

On any other day of the year, it might have seemed a rather unusual sight, the burnt orange jeep with a man dressed as a tiger in the backseat, Auburn flags blowing from every corner, the school's logo plastered on every door and 'War Eagle!!' stuck to essentially every remaining opening.
Not on Tuesday.
On Tuesday, Auburn football coach Gus Malzahn was in town, and that decked out Wrangler was the embodiment of every local
View a photo gallery of coach Malzahn's visit >>
"This is just exciting for me to travel around to see Auburn fans, get to know them, talk about the future of Auburn football," Malzahn said. "We feel like it's very bright. A fact that a head coach can't go out recruiting, this is a good time to get out and see the fans, get to know them."
In 2013, there was still plenty of pride in the Auburn football program to go around when the Emerald Coast Auburn Club hosted assistant coach Dameyune Craig for its annual convention. Even after a 3-9 season, it's still SEC football.
But Malzahn's presence, on the heels of a 12-2 SEC Championship-laden season that was 13 seconds away from a national title, was cause for an entirely new level of enthusiasm.
A record 460 fans paid $50 — some shelled out up to $1,000 for the lavish tables near the stage — to watch Malzahn speak and sign autographs at the Emerald Coast Convention Center. That was more than the last time Malzahn, then the offensive coordinator, visited in 2011, fresh off the school's second national championship. That was more than when former head coaches Gene Chizik or Tommy Tuberville visited the Panhandle.
Evidently that's the effect a coach can have when he takes over a moribund program, executes the biggest turnaround in SEC history, slays mighty Alabama in unforgettable fashion, drills Missouri for the conference title, and nearly stuns an undefeated Florida State team led by a Heisman winning quarterback in the national championship.
"I can't even put it into words," said Chris Cadenhead, the owner of the aforementioned Auburn jeep who helped escort Malzahn from the Destin airport. "To go from the bottom to the apex is unreal. I think if we'd have had two or three, 3-9 seasons in a row, it would have been hard to fill that stadium up. But you saw the Iron Bowl and the Georgia game and it was packed."
Cadenhead isn't even from the state of Alabama. He was born and raised in Niceville, a Tiger fan only because his neighbor convinced him to be when he was 10 years old. It's guys like Cadenhead, who drove to
Malzahn estimated he makes nine stops at similar clubs, and this local branch of Auburn supporters is one of only two he visits that are out of the state of Alabama — the other is in Atlanta.
There is a reason for that: Speak to any member of the ECAC and they'll be the first to tell you that this club is ranked in Auburn's top 10.
"This is one of the top Auburn clubs in the country," Andrew Gosnell said. "With the exception of the Atlanta club, we are the largest club outside of the state of Alabama."
Gosnell served as president of the ECAC for the previous two years. As any ardent Auburn fan has, he witnessed the highest of the highs — a national championship led by Heisman winner Cam Newton — and the lowest of the lows — the 3-9 catastrophe that was 2012.
In 2013, he was alas able to sit back, relieved of presidential duties, and see first-hand the difference just one year — and an enormously popular coach — can make.
"The disappointment of the 3-9 season and then to go to
Added Malzahn: "We're not going to sneak up on anyone. We're going to have to earn everything we get."

Healthcare Meeting Compliance Certificate FAQ
How much time do I have to be away from the office to take the Certificate class?
The Healthcare Meeting Compliance Certificate is a 4-hour program that includes a blend of lecture, discussion, question and answer and class activities. The program is being offered in a variety of settings, including at healthcare events and conferences, private sessions provided by employers as well as sessions at the Wool Center at Saint Louis University. Additionally, the HMCC program will be available in virtual format in the near future so that you don't even have to leave your desk to participate.
The regular rate for the HMCC session is $599 plus the cost of the required textbook, which can be order online here:
Can you explain the difference between Certification and a Certificate?
People often ask, "What is the difference between certification and a certificate?" To help avoid confusion in the industry, we have provided you the comparison below.
|Results from an assessment process that recognizes an individual's knowledge, skills and competency in a particular specialty
|Results from an educational process
|Typically requires professional experience
|For newcomers and experienced professionals
|Awarded by a third-party, standard-setting organization
|Awarded by educational programs or institutions
|Indicates mastery/competency as measured against a defensible set of standards, usually by application or exam
|Indicates completion of a course or series of courses with a specific focus (different than a degree granting program)
|Standards set through a defensible, industry-wide process (job analysis/role delineation) that results in an outline of required knowledge and skills
|Course content determined by the specific provider or institution, not standardized
|Typically results in credentials to be listed after one's name (CMP, CSEP)
|Usually listed on a resume detailing education (CMM)
|Has on-going requirements in order to maintain; holder must demonstrate he/she continues to meet requirements
|Demonstrates knowledge of course content at the end of a set period in time
Certification generally refers to an earned credential that demonstrates the holder's specialized knowledge, skills, and experience. Certification differs from a certificate program, which is usually an educational offering that confers a document at the program's conclusion. Accreditation of a certification involves a voluntary, self-regulatory process. Accreditation is granted when stated quality criteria are met.
Why should I, or my company, get a Certificate in Healthcare Meeting Compliance?
The benefits of receiving the certificate are many:
- Professional recognition
- Personal satisfaction
- An indicator of expertise
- Increased opportunities for employment advancement opportunities
- Increased credibility with clients
What is the Meeting Professionals International (MPI) and why are they endorsing those companies that receive a Certificate?
Meeting Professionals International (MPI) is the largest and most vibrant global meeting and event industry association. The organization provides innovative and relevant education, networking opportunities and business exchanges, and acts as a prominent voice for the promotion and growth of the industry. MPI membership is comprised of approximately 18,500 members belonging to 70 chapters and clubs worldwide. For additional information or to join, visit www.mpiweb.org.
MPI will list the recipient and/or company to receive the Healthcare Compliance Meetings Certificate on their website. Each company recipient will also receive the MPI "Endorsed Seal of Approval".
Why would the Seal of Endorsement be important?
The MPI Seal of Endorsement would validate that a company or organization has received competency in healthcare meeting compliance. Clients are much more likely to work with a partner or supplier that evidences their knowledge of healthcare meeting requirements.
How does the Certificate and Seal of Endorsement work for an individual rather than a company?
A company can choose one or more persons as their representative to take the class. After the class, the Company will receive the Seal of Endorsement and they will be listed on the MPI website. If the Company Representative leaves the company, the Certificate goes with that Representative and the Company would have to assign a new Representative to take the class.
An Individual would receive the University Certificate but not be eligible for the Seal of Endorsement.
However, the MPI Seal of Endorsement recipients will be listed on their website and available to see by any site visitor. Also, a complete list of Individual Certificate recipients will also be listed and that list will be readily available to site visitors.
Who should receive a Healthcare Meeting Compliance Certificate?
The Certificate is targeted for those who devote a major portion of their time to working in the healthcare industry. The program is for those who are involved in planning and reporting transparency and spend and for those suppliers who provide services and products to the healthcare industry.
Are there specific organizations that would benefit from the Certificate?
The healthcare industry is vast and the Certificate can prove to be particularly beneficial to those in the following segments:
- Pharmaceuticals
- Medical Device
- Biologics
- Medical Products
- Hospitals
- Allied Health
- Healthcare Associations
- Animal Health
- Physicians
- Group Purchasing Organizations
- Physician Owned Distributorships
- 3rd Party Planning Companies
Are there specific supplier organizations that would benefit from receiving the Certificate?

I would like to receive information about Saint Louis University and MPI.

That is a rather different issue from whether syntax objects are opaque to list operations. Syntax objects are data, whether they are opaque or not to list operations. I would consider the cross-stage persistence semantics you advocated a much better example of what it means to confuse the distinction between code and data. As you know from the namespaces thread, I am in fact advocating a stricter separation between code on the one hand, and data representing code at a different syntactic storey on the other hand, than is currently done in comparable Scheme macro systems.

Lastly, we come to our third and final True Street participant, Jeff Hightower in his '66 Chevelle. Jeff ran an average time of 12.715. Speaking of True Street: What happened to the rest of California? Only three cars vs. 30 in Baton Rouge? I thought California was the mecca of hot rodding? Having grown up in California and lived here a large part of my life, I really was rooting that California Chevy owners would prove their salt.
This Chevy Sedan owned by Ricky Olivera had to be the most unusual vehicle at the whole show. The body of the vehicle looks nearly unchanged since the 1930s, and Ricky managed to stuff a 572 between the framerails. Rick told us that his father raced it back in the day and now he is campaigning. Now this is the real definition of hot rod. We gave him an Editor's Choice award.
The crowd seems to like the Chicken vs. the Mouse and is giving them the Caesar thumbs-up.
"Here I come to save the day." Mighty Mouse and a Thunder Chicken both take flight right off the launch line. Mighty Mouse vs. The Thunder Chicken...hmm...sounds like it could be a movie.
Meanwhile, back on the car show side, we spotted this magnificent '61 Impala SS. The only thing I would change on this car is the name on the title!
Marcellino Richarte had this super clean and beautiful Fathom Green '69 Camaro. How come nobody paints their Camaros this color? Marcellino did, and that is why we gave him an Editor's Choice award.
Ron Hawk had a beautiful '57 Chevy drag car. It looked like a stock Bel Air, minus the wheels and tires, so we just had to give him an Editor's Choice award.
Another that received an award was this historic '57 Chevy owned by Mark Protheno. This vehicle ran at Lions Drag Strip, Pomona and other legendary California tracks, as well as running out on the Bonneville Salt Flats and El Mirage back in the 1960s. He's got all the timing tags and timeslips to prove it, too.

@OldPete: thanks for the good tips. The first thought when the bike died initially was bad fuel (mixed with water), I drained the tank, sold the old fuel off and bought new fuel, but forgot to check the filter then. Doh! Good tip with the felt. I'll need to find some when I hit civilization next
@MeinMotorrad: haha, yeah, don't want to piss off the moto gods too much, but they're only a figment of my imagination
I think the thought of quitting now and going to be with my human girlfriend pissed sanDRina off and she gave me all this trouble to focus the attention back on her. Women, I tell you, so demanding
@Chris: I'm riding in Afrikaaahh!!
@ADV Grifter: yeah, kicking myself now for overlooking the filter all this time. In my defense, prior to Nairobi, I had two inline fuel filters right after each petcock on the Safari tank and that meant they were clearly visible all the time and I routinely checked them and replaced as needed. In Nairobi, my mechanic buddy and I talked it over and he said putting the filter after the two lines join would mean less filters to carry. Good point, so we did that, and the filter is now hidden from view, behind the tank, near the rear brake reservoir. But, this filter was installed only 1,600 miles ago, so I think water or something else lead to early failure and then it clogged during running and when I let the bike 'cool down' I think the sediments in the filter settled and that allowed the bike to run again until all the sediments clogged the pores again. I hope that's it.
And you're so right, I gladly welcome a mechanical problem over an electrical problem, any day!
I checked both petcocks and their screens are ok but there's some crud around the base. I'll flush it when I get the next chance.
@eakins: I guess I'll never know. I mean, I could put the old CDI, rectifier and stator back on and check
or believe that it was a new problem that arose after that...
@Thumper Dan: I have a spare harness and if she dies on me again, that's it, harness replacement!

320-Slice CT Images Entire Organ in One Rotation
February 5, 2008
A new 320-slice computed tomography (CT) system, the AquilionONE by Toshiba America Medical Systems, delivers dynamic volume imaging that can image an entire organ in a single rotation or over multiple rotations, showing real-time dynamic movement.
Multiphase studies, such as perfusion of the brain, heart and other organs, are also possible with the new system.
Designed to ensure greater accuracy and increase diagnostic confidence, it covers up to 16 centimeters of anatomy using 320 ultra-high resolution 0.5 mm detector elements. Physicians using the AquilionONE can see a three-dimensional depiction of an organ as well as how the organ and blood flow are dynamically functioning or moving within and around the organ.

Maurice Egan
Dear Nancy,
Greetings from Ireland.
I have been researching members of the Egan Family from Causeway, Co Kerry who emigrated to Missouri.
As part of this research I found a Maurice Egan buried in St. Columba's cemetery, Nodaway. You have put this record online on findagrave.com
Do you have any information that would state that this Maurice Egan was from Causeway?
Any help you can give is sincerely appreciated.
Many thanks,

Amelia J. Perkins Dowell
I am trying to confirm whether Amelia Jane Perkins was the sister of an ancestor, Thomas Milton Perkins. According to his obituary, he moved from Licking County, Ohio, where he was born, with his sister, Mrs. John Dowell, and her husband, at age 19, to Wayne County, Iowa. Does this fit any information you have about Amelia and her husband? Also, how do you know her father was named William? This is different than the parents listed on Family Search.

RE:Oda O. Hubbell 1881-1910
There is an article in the Chariton Courier newspaper Nov. 25 1910, page 4, about the murder of this man and his family. This paper is available online on the Library Of Congress site "Chronicling America" Historic American Newspapers. I am not related, just reading this newspaper gathering more info on my own family from this area. I hate to pass by info that can contribute to other families stories, although some of it is sad, like this. I have found a tragic incident in my own family history, when initial info indicated some romantic, glorious notions.

The first of the four, a remake of Mariah Carey's Hero, benefitted Help For Heroes and The Poppy Appeal, and sold 313,244 copies the week of its 2008 release credited to The X Factor Finalists. A year on, The X Factor Finalists 2009's recording of Michael Jackson's You Are Not Alone reached number one on sales of 193,176, with proceeds going to Great Ormond Street Hospital. And last year, Help For Heroes was the beneficiary as David Bowie's Heroes topped the chart on sales of 144,014 for The X Factor Finalists 2010.
The only major hit written by the late Billie Rae Calvin of the group Undisputed Truth, Wishing On A Star is a chart veteran, with Rose Royce's original, supremely soulful 1978 recording reaching number three, Fresh 4 feat. Lizz E's trip-hop take on the tune getting to number 10 in 1989, The Cover Girls' fairly faithful 1992 revival cresting to number 38, a jungle-istic version by 88.3 feat Lisa May running out of steam at number 65 in 1995, Jay-Z's 1998 rap re-invention, with a cameo from original Rose Royce vocalist Gwen Dickey, climbing to number 11, and Paul Weller's blue-eyed soul boy reading reaching number 13 in 2004. It's impossible to prove but The X Factor Finalists may have fared even better if they'd released the similarly celestial When You Wish Upon A Star, as performed in their Marks & Spencer Christmas advertisement.
The main casualty of The X Factor Finalists' number one debut is the show's 2009 runner-up Olly Murs, whose latest single, Dance With Me Tonight is runner-up for the second week in a row, selling a further 62,417 copies.. The track which denied it top billing last week, We Found Love, slips to number three for Rihanna feat. Calvin Harris, while selling a further 51,961 copies.
It's not the only Rihanna track to decline week-on-week. The singer had 20 songs in the Top 200 last week - a 10% stake - but is down to just nine this week, with those that remain all in decline: In the Top 75, Take Care, by Drake feat. Rihanna slips 9-11 (24,548 sales); You Da One ebbs 39-40 (7,232 sales); and Talk That Talk by Rihanna feat. Jay-Z falls 25-47 (6,056 sales). Although Only Girl (In The World) is not exempt from the downward drift, its 127-154 fall is accompanied by sales of 1,669 copies - enough to lift it over the million mark (1,000,514). It's the 108th million seller in singles history, and the second in a row featuring Rihanna, arriving six weeks after Love The Way You Lie by Eminem feat. Rihanna.
Who You Are becomes the fourth Top 10 single from Jessie J's debut album of the same title, after she performed it on The X Factor Results Show eight days ago. The track tumbled 28-37 last week but now jumps to number eight, with sales more than trebling to 29,103. It helps J's album to improve 29-19, with sales up 107.67% week-on-week at 25,922.
Jason Derulo's Fight For You also makes a big leap, jumping 43-15 (17,592 sales). The third hit from Derulo's second album, Future History, following Don't Wanna Go Home (number one) and It Girl (number four), it is based on Toto's hit Africa, and help the album to a modest 123-112 climb, with sales up 44.15% week-on-week at 2,804.
Emeli Sande reached number two with debut solo hit Heaven in August and topped the chart last month as featured vocalist on Professor Green's Read All About It. Her new single, Daddy, debuts at number 21 (13,945 sales).
Lady GaGa has performed latest single Marry The Night on several primetime shows, and the song has a major radio profile but it is struggling. After entering the chart at number 18 a fortnight ago, it stalled last week and inches up to number 16, although its sales are off 28.10% week-on-week (16,798). The sixth Top 20 success from GaGa's current album Born This Way, its performance is reflected in the fortunes of the album itself, which climbed to number 14 a fortnight ago on the heels of the release of the remix edition but now falls 18-21 (25,422 sales).
Overall singles sales are down 3.06% week-on-week at 3,090,499 - 5.30% above same week 2010 sales of 2,934,813.

DPRK Directs Big Efforts to Mineral Prospecting
| Pyongyang, January 29 (KCNA) -- The DPRK is channeling big efforts into prospecting mineral resources.
A central group for the survey of mineral resources has recently found deposits of such valuable minerals as coal, iron and nonferrous metals in South Phyongan Province and South Hamgyong Province.
In South Phyongan Province, coal deposits were discovered in the course of systematizing geological structure and prospecting fold mountain ranges and single strata in northern coal fields.
And nonferrous ore body and several veins were found out in the areas of Nyongwon and Hoechang.
In South Hamgyong Province, analysis of hundreds of samples of minerals led to the discovery of rich deposit of schist iron ore deep in the area.
Meanwhile, hundreds of millions of tons of Kumgang medical stone deposits were secured through a nationwide survey.

Cooking Method - Sauté
Many South African recipes are spiced up by sambals such as these that the Malayan immigrants brought to the country. Add it to grilled meats, soups and stews, seafood dishes and even over rice.
This is a basic Chiltepin soup. This one is for true garlic lovers. Serve with flour tortillas.
'Rotis are traditional fare throughout the Caribbean and have been called a West Indian version of a burrito. The bread wrapper is East Indian in origin and always contains something curried. '
One of the Portugal's most notable dishes is named after the wok-like, copper pressure cooker in which it is prepared. It can be made with various ingredients but most commonly clams (ameijoas) along with small pieces of Portuguese spiced sausage (chouriço), garlic, onions, tomatoes, and a little piri-piri. Serve this with boiled new potatoes.
Three varieties of beans were found beneath the ash in the village kitchens of Cerén. Certainly they were boiled, and since they are bland, they were undoubtedly combined with other ingredients, including chiles and primitive tomatoes. The Cerén villagers would have used peccary fat for the lard and bacon, and of course would not have had cumin. But they probably would have used spices such as Mexican oregano.
Piperade is a colorful pepper sauce that is only spicy when made in the Basque region. This simple but delicious dish is often served at the Celebration of the Peppers. Serve it boiled potatoes and green beans.
Groundnut or peanut soups and stews are extremely popular in the cooking Ghana and Mali in West Africa; in fact, some consider it to be the most popular of all Sunday meals. Chicken is usually the preferred meat, but we have found that a variety of meats and seafood are also used, including beef, lamb, smoked fish, and crabs.
To celebrate the tasty wonderfulness that is chicken, I asked Dave DeWitt's wife Mary Jane Wilan to share her all-time favorite chicken recipe. Dave may be the Pope of Peppers, but where cooking is concerned, Mary Jane rules the roost. Here's her take on a classic recipe that features paprika, another much-loved kitchen staple in the U. S. You can read more about paprika on the Fiery Foods & BBQ SuperSite here.
Thanks to the North America Blueberry Association for this recipe. From the article Blazing Blueberries.
These sweet chicken chimichangas with fruit are lighter than the more traditional beef and bean recipe popular in Arizona.

SAINT LEO, Fla. – As the Saint Leo men's basketball team now looks toward their final two games of the regular season, the Lions are trying to right the ship after losing two-straight games and falling to 4-10 in the Sunshine State Conference. Playing the most games of any team in the SSC (28) the Lions are just 11-17 and looking to use a road win in St. Petersburg against the Tritons to help solidify a position for the upcoming conference tournament.
Last Time Out
Using a 3-point stroke that had seemed to betray the Lions the entire season that suddenly became their biggest ally last Saturday afternoon, the Saint Leo men's basketball team hit six of them to nearly erase a 13-point second half deficit against SSC foe Rollins. It was a rally came up short as the 18th-ranked Tars pulled out the 70-64 victory in Sunshine State Conference action from the Bowman Center.
In the second half, a 56-43 Rollins lead quickly evaporated as Jeremy Jackson, Josue Vasquez and Dominick Robinson all connected on 3-pointers and Robinson also bucketed a layup to cut the Tars' advantage to just two. That would mark the first of three times that Saint Leo would cut to deficit to just a single basket, but neither time could the Lions get the equalizer as Rollins connected on the following shot every time.
Despite the loss, four Lions scored in double-digits as Jordan Prais recording his first double-double since returning from an ankle injury last week. The senior from Lakeland, Fla. scored 10 points and pulled down 12 rebounds. Vazquez and Jackson finished with a team-high 14 points while Robinson finished with 10.
The Lions shot and astounding 52.1 percent (25-for-48) from the field while going 9-for-18 (50 percent) from behind the arc.
Series Overview
Saint Leo picked up one of their biggest wins during the Mike Madagan era in the McArthur Center as the Lions upset the host Tritons 65-62 in March of 2008. It was an upset that saw the seventh-seeded Lions stun the second-seeded Tritons in the first round of the Sunshine State Conference Tournament, a tournament which the Tritons had won the year prior. Since the 2006-07 season the Lions are currently 2-6 against the Tritons, with their only other win coming in a 77-72 victory the last time SLU visited South St. Pete.
Last Meeting
After pushing the margin to 10 points with 7:40 left in the first half, the Saint Leo men's basketball team would not score another point for nine minutes as the Eckerd College Tritons stormed back to overtake the Lions and claim a 67-61 Sunshine State Conference victory at the Bowman Center on January 20th. In seeing their three-game win streak snapped, the Lions shot just 32.8 percent (19-of-58) from the field compared to Eckerd's 39 percent (22-of-56). Despite allowing just two 3-pointers from Eckerd throughout the game, the Lions biggest weakness again came from the free-throw line as they only hit 56.7 percent (17-of-30) of their shots, compared to the Tritons, who hit true on 21-of-26 (80.8 percent) of their chances. Saint Leo senior Jordan Prais had another notable night for the Lions as he scored 22 points and pulled down a team-high eight boards, while Vazquez was the only other Lion in double-digits with 14 points in 35 minutes. Zaronn Cann was the big impact player for the Tritons as he had 19 points in just 23 minutes, most coming from in the paint.
After snapping a month-long losing streak with three-straight wins over schools with 'Florida' in their name (Tech, Southern, College) the Lions fell to the Tritons which started a three-game losing streak. After that, the Lions have struggled through a 3-4 record with two-straight losses. Since the New Year, the Lions have only been outscored by 1.2 points (72.3-to-71.1) as they are actually more accurate from the field than their opponents (.428-to-.394) but that comes at a price. While the Lions are shooting better, they are more selective in their shots than their opponents. Saint Leo has only put up 866 shots while their competition has tossed up 989 attempts since January 1st. Saint Leo is also staring at a slim disadvantage (-1/5) in rebounds. The Lions are easily out-blocking their opponents with a 90-to-49 advantage.
About Saint Leo
Despite sitting out three games in early February due to an ankle injury, senior record-setter Jordan Prais still leads the Lions and is fourth in the SSC with 18.8 points and 8.6 rebounds per game. His 471 points are nearly double what his nearest teammate has tallied this season. He is also the only SLU regular who is above 50 percent shooting (.513) and holds a .723 percent average from the free throw line. With the Olympics fresh on everyone's mind – the Silver medal for team scoring is up for grabs as freshman Dominick Robinson is just .1 of a point away from junior Jeremy Jackson for second on the team in scoring (9.6-to-9.5). Defensively, aside from Prais, freshman Matt Kendrick is setting the benchmark in the SSC with rejections as he leads the eight other teams in blocking. Kendrick helped set a new Saint Leo single-game blocking record as the Lions blocked 14 shots against Florida Tech on February 6th. As a team, the Lions hold an extremely slim 0.1 advantage in scoring over their opponents throughout the season. Despite being in the bottom-half of the Sunshine State Conference in numerous categories, the Lions lead the SSC in rebounding offense, blocked shots and defensive rebounds.

About Eckerd
After missing out on the conference tournament last year, the Tritons, behind senior Zaronn Cann are back to form, solidly in third place in the SSC. Cann and senior John Harper are both averaging 13.4 points per game as Cann also leads the team in rebounds with 6.0 per game. Cann, a transfer from the University of South Florida, is shooting lights-out, averaging .620 percent (111-of-179) from the field.
The only other Triton averaging in double-figures is Wayne Sears, who is averaging 10.7 points a game behind .425 percent (79-of-186) shooting.
As a team, the Tritons are currently 16-8 overall and 9-5 in the SSC as they have season sweeps over Tampa, Lynn and Florida Tech. EC seems to have a knack for the nail-biters as they have taken three games into overtime, holding a 2-1 record in the extra sessions. Their last game was a double-overtime 85-85 thrilling win over Lynn in St. Pete.
The fourth-best scoring offense in the league (75.7 ppg) and the second-best defense (69.4 ppg) the Tritons are a serious threat from the free-throw line as they sit atop the conference in shots made from the charity stripe. That should be of concern for Saint Leo as the Lions rank last in made free-throws. Eckerd is also first in defensive boards.

The Post reports this morning that teen menace Justin Bieber will bring his traveling squadron of tweeting, shrieking rioters to our fair city when he records his next album here. Bieber's evil plans were made public in papers filed by his record label in a Manhattan court: He'll be paid a $400,000 advance from Universal for the first album in a two-record deal and, according to the filing, be "providing his services as a recording artist in recording studios located in New York City." Because he's only 16, though, Universal Records assures the judge, "the foregoing services rendered by the minor shall not, however, require excessive time as to interfere with the minor's education and welfare." But what about the welfare of everyone else? Maybe this is the Cloverfield sequel?
