Thirty-six pounds of marijuana was seized by the Massachusetts State Police during traffic stop Wednesday evening in Sturbridge.
A trooper was on patrol on Interstate 84 when he stopped a BMW SUV for motor vehicle violations, according to a Massachusetts State Police official.
During the course of the stop, the trooper requested the assistance from a state police K-9 for "suspected narcotic activity."
As a result of the investigation and search of the car, more than a dozen bags containing nearly 36 pounds of marijuana were located.
Police charged Shui Tim Louie, 38, from ElmHurst, NY with possession with intent to distribute a Class D substance. He was issued a $5,000 bond.
Louie was also issued a citation for speeding and a marked lane violation.

Best System Out
Posted 27 January 2008 - 07:01 PM
I think the Wii a good system but it needs more adult content games. Does the control system scare away publishers?

the downfall to wii is that its mainly youth based. or party based, not covering the full age scale
i personally have a 360, and its been great to me =]

However, I think the best system is still the PS3, especially now that blue ray is going to be the standard. Yes the Wii sells more, but thats because its cheap and great for all ages. They sell more Toyota Corollas than they do Porsche 911s, but that doesn't make it a better car

I would be a little more inclined to agree with you. But, I like 360 just a little more for their file sharing and incorporation into my home network. MS just made things easy for me...Although I hate the Media Center feature...
Posted 15 July 2008 - 10:06 AM
Firstly, the PC isnt even an option only consoles, so.............nevermind
Secondly, I think the Wii is the best, where else can you play on a Balance board or actually use a sword etc. Also you only need a remote and a nunchuck, their is no need to buy different controllers as stated somewhere above because there ARE no other controllers.
Even though the Xbox 360 and PS3 are good machines with good graphics etc, the gaming industry has stated that they cant go much farther with graphics, so what then???
Its nice to see Nintendo being more innovative with gaming instead of churning out the same old structure like everyone else, a new perspective to gaming is very refreshing and give Sony and Microsoft something to think about.
Oh Yeah, and the price MY GOODNESS the price, cheap, cheap, cheap and in demand, nuff said

Is the internet, not formal education, the new great equalizer?
Education then, beyond all other devices of human origin, is the great equalizer of the conditions of men, the balance-wheel of the social machinery. – Horace Mann
Showing single comment thread. View the full conversation.
Oct 6 2011: The internet is a powerful tool in self-education. I personally am only in university because I need an Honors/ PhD to do research, but when I actually study, I prefer searching the internet or reading books and journal articles as opposed to relying on lectures.
I can't help but feel that the rigidity of high school (even in Australia) wasted my potential. I spent most of my youngest and brightest years learning about things I didn't care about and would never use again. So little of high school stuck that before I started university I spent months re-learning maths from decimals to calculus, and my main resource was — you guessed it — the internet.
Oct 6 2011: Hi Desi,
Thanks for the input! I'm in a similar situation in Canada. When there is a multitude of information at your fingertips, I find it hard to have to learn topics out of context (ie. learning about developing countries from a comfortable lecture hall or statistics for research three years before I'd be doing the research).
Take care,
Oct 6 2011: Exactly! Context and application are a big deal. If what I'm learning seem a bit abstract, I just pop over to read ScienceDaily and all of those concepts are grounded in the tangible.
Sometimes it makes you feel bad though. I read something about Todd Rider and friends creating a drug that could target and destroy basically any virus by finding the viruses' double-stranded RNA. I thought, "Leave some for me!"
Oct 6 2011: Hi Desi ... I think the point that needs to be made is that there are levels of education (Elementary or Primary, Secondary and Tertiary) - and you feel that your secondary education was of little value to you. However, it is the secondary stage - where you were assisted (although quite possibly not with the greatest attention to affective domain) to make the neural connections that you are now using at the Tertiary Level. In some ways, its a shame that metacognition is not given a higher priority in high schools - although to some students that in itself may lead to resentment as yet another "irrelevant" subject.
I don't know what subject, or what university, you are enrolled - but I'd nearly bet money that if you're in a science rather than liberal arts faculty, you're going to find as you travel the journey that the Internet will not meet your tertiary education needs as much as your campus's library OPAC.
Oct 6 2011: I understand the point you're making in the first paragraph, but I'd venture to disagree. Whatever I learned in high school, I learned from the many, many books I read and from off-topic class conversations that my teachers liked to have, and very little from the schooling itself. I generally consider my 'real' secondary education to have taken place when I completed my apprenticeship and became a qualified Pastry Chef; in the battleground of a kitchen, I learned more about myself and my limitations than I could have in any other setting.
You're right in saying that the OPAC is useful (I am now in Biomedical Science), but even this is being supplanted by online resources. Sites like PLoS ONE and other journal databases provide easy access to relevant journal articles, there are many professionals who provide online resources (some universities have publicly accessible tutorials that I've found through Google), and even my uni library provides pre-paid access to journal articles, chemical handbooks, and so on.
Oct 6 2011: Desi, I agree with your take on formal education vs. the Internet. Most of what I use to make my living is self-taught; I did take college courses but they were mostly of the general education variety and not specialized. Do i ever use what I learned? Maybe. Some of the business management classes were helpful to understand people and their motivation. Most of my technical classes were outdated by the time I took them.
I have toyed with the idea of returning to college to complete my formal education, as an increasing number of employers are requiring that piece of paper saying you have done your time and paid your fees. However, I am about five years from retirement, and the cost of completing my education would put me into debt at a time where debt is a real issue. Therefore, I will continue my self-directed learning and hope that more enlightened employers will continue to hire talented personnel without a formal diploma.
Oct 6 2011: There's a lot of value in what I'm learning presently so I have no real beef with university. The Australian Government also subsidises science students very heavily since this country has a shortage of them, which means I only have debt of around $5,500 per year. That's also very nice. =D
I suppose what I'm saying is that I wish high school had the open-endedness of university. I would have gone hard into the sciences and technology instead of getting mired in the mess of postmodernist English.
Oct 6 2011: I am from a village close to Frankfurt and 21 years old studying Biophysics in 3rd semester. Im my experience school gives an idea about what exists out there. This is its Job and I think it is enough, that it is not the main purpose of University to do the same think on a deeper level for the sake of forgetting it again because I can't apply it to a real problem. I am glad, that it was no all day school, because then i would not have my IT skills I have today. I hat also some teachers who did some very free projects in History or discussions in english, math or politics which were a great experience. But all the facts and skills i got from the internet.
Now I am at University and learning about electrodynamics for the 2nd time. Why? Well to forget and relearn it again when i might need it after Masters or PhD. I am only glad, that then I can use the same material from khan academy to do it.
@ Amanda: As a young student, my experience is that the internet can replace University at least to Bachelors. And it definitely replaces my campus library, because a good part of the Books are available as PDF. I could need some help with learning biomolecular methods in the Lab, but that has to wait till masters (if i am lucky). So right now University almost useless besides connecting to other people during lectures. I am curious what tertiary education needs I have to expect, which can not be met by the Internet.
The only thing I can think of are face to face discussions (although ted is doing a nice job here) and lab material + experience, which is not accessible to me and this will not change in near future.
@ Desi: I always had some feeling that it is good to experience a real world problem to realize that the basics are missing. But I could't give this feeling a name. Context and Application hits the nail on the head. I think I am in the same situation: I am at University to get a PhD which I can put in my CV.
Oct 7 2011: Besides making information available, the internet should also be credited as a vehicle for inspiration just as books are. I decided to go to university after reading a book (Hawking's 'A Brief History of Time'), and two videos (Brian Greene's What's The Big Idea? speech [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tu-_PvllpJc], and one of Richard Feynman's interviews [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cj4y0EUlU-Y].
These two men, along with many others I've learned of along the way (like Norman Borlaug), provide me with excellent role models as a person and as an aspiring scientist.

Supersized cell in middle school
weeks ago Todd Apples seventh grade class didnt
know cells had parts. Today, they know what those parts
are, how they work, and they can take you on a tour through
a 150 square-foot model of a cell they built in their middle
school classroom.
Golgi apparatus, mitochondria, endoplasmic reticulum studded with ribosomes, lysosomes, nuclei, vacuoles and chloroplasts are all suspended in a giant bubble of plastic sheeting the cell membrane. The cell membrane keeps waste and bad things out, explained Chris Nielson. The ribosomes are like construction sites. The lysosomes are like the recycling bin. Except for the suspended organelles, the cell looks empty, but Tasleem Kahn explained real cells werent. This isnt empty, its full of cytoplasm, like a gel, he said.
Jessica Welter and her team made the cells nucleus out of papier maché, complete with the small pores that take genetic material out into the cell to be translated into proteins. The nucleolus is here inside, she pointed out. Ashley Damon and her team made Golgi apparatus out of paper plates and oatmeal boxes, but she knows how the rest of the cell works too.
Mitochondria break down sugars and make energy, she said. Stefani Schmidt was part of the team that cobbled together the 20x6x8 cell membrane out of plastic sheeting. I need to tell you about endo and exocytosis, she said. When something needs to go out of the cell it goes in a vacuole, like a bubble made of the same thing as the cell membrane, and when it goes out it joins up with the membrane.
Apple said making the giant cell fired students interest in cell biology. Each group had to make part of the cell and do a poster. They really got into it, he said. Apple got the idea for the big cell from a book of science projects. The way it was described didnt really work, so with the students, we made it better, he said.
Once the cell was built, they took other middle school students, their parents and other visitors on tours, teaching them how the cell worked. DNA has the information to make another one of you, Melvin Ellis told sixth-grade visitors on a tour, pointing to multicolored ladders of deoxyribonucleic acid DNA.
Apple said he hopes to make building the big cell an annual project. He already has some ideas to make it better with his next batch of seventh graders.

What Americans Think and Feel about Evolution
The new Gallup survey shows in broad strokes the challenge we face. But more nuanced surveys find that only 8% of Americans are convinced creationists whose beliefs are dear to them, and only 4% are convinced atheistic evolutionists whose beliefs are dear to them. The vast majority of Americans are not sure of their position and are open to a conversation.

Still Surprised by Easter
We now take for granted an understanding of the Christian story that was largely worked out by Paul and later theologians. Even though the Gospels were composed after Paul's letters, they were concerned to tell the story itself in all its strangeness as it had been preserved by the first generation of Christians. And what we find in the stories themselves is the shock and wonder and surprise that the resurrection caused.
"The Language of God" Book Club – Chapters 10-11
Collins' original use of the term "BioLogos" was as an alternative label for the position often known as "theistic evolution." Now this gets a bit confusing as "BioLogos" became the name for our organization that Collins founded (after the publication of this book). We continue to be dissatisfied with the label "theistic evolution" because as Collins said, most non-theologians are unsure how the term "theist" "could be converted to an adjective and used to modify Darwin's theory."

What's in the Works at BioLogos
There is no formula for generating beliefs in people. There are plenty of people with access to the same facts who end up believing different things. But for many Christians—like the ones I heard from this week—access to information about the position we call "evolutionary creation" could make a significant difference for reconciling science and Christian faith.

Does Resurrection Contradict Science?
So what then does Resurrection mean? For Benedict it represents a new dimension of reality breaking through into human experience. It is not a violation of the old; it is the manifestation of something new.
Searching for Motivated Belief: Understanding John Polkinghorne, Part 2
To understand more clearly where Polkinghorne lies on the larger landscape of science and religion, let's consider his approach to the Resurrection. Many contemporary thinkers, including some theologians and clergy, believe that "science" has somehow made it impossible to believe in the Resurrection, the deity of Jesus, and even belief in the transcendent God of the Bible.
Evolution and Christian Faith Grantees Announced
Congratulations to the 37 winners of the Evolution & Christian Faith (ECF) grants competition! ECF is a new BioLogos program designed to support projects and network-building among scholars, church leaders, and parachurch organizations.
Dissonance and Harmony
People hold clearly discordant points of view, and it would be dishonest to ignore the conflict. Yet some voices emphasize the dissonance without any note of harmony to put it in context. Too often, science and faith becomes a hostile battle of worldviews, sounding angry, dissonant chords even among fellow Christians. But civil, gracious dialogue is possible.

On Monday, The Science Journal issued a report showing an increased risk of earthquakes largely due to deep well injection.
According to a release, the report outlines the findings of author William L. Ellsworth of the USGS Earthquake Science Center.
Rep. Hagan told 21 News that he already knew from previous experience that there is a direct link between injection wells and earthquakes.
What he found interesting, he says, is that there is a portion of the study that shows it's possible that injection wells can actually cause earthquakes in other parts of the world, not just in their immediate vicinity.
Hagan released this statement in response to the report:
"Yet again we are confronted with more scientific evidence that seems to indicate that we have a lot of work to do in Ohio. We have to take a more proactive approach to ensure that we are going about the complete fracking process in a safe and responsible way.
"There is no harm in slowing down to examine scientific research to see what we can do better and safer in our state. We are at the forefront of oil and gas exploration in Ohio, there's no reason our safety and regulatory practices shouldn't be cutting edge as well.
"We have the resources, we have the research and we have the oil and gas. Let's do this the right way to make sure we have the safety and appropriate processes in place too."

Product Description
The PMDG 737NGX -800/900
The Definitive Simulation of the World's Definitive Airliner
PMDG is proud to offer the next level of airliner flight simulation with the release of the PMDG 737NGX 800/900 for Microsoft Flight Simulator X!

Developed over three years with technical input from Boeing and a team of real-life 737NG crew and maintenance advisors, we have painstakingly modeled nearly every system on the real aircraft in a fully dynamic and realistic manner.
Raise the wing spoilers and watch as the virtual hydraulic fluid moves through the system and causes the pressure and quantity to change in real time. Turn on something as small as a single exterior light and watch as the electrical load indication changes to reflect the increased power draw. The PMDG 737NGX is a living, breathing machine.
This package contains ONLY the 737-800/900 winglet/non-winglet models including the Virtual Cockpit, Manuals, PMDG NGX Tutorial and the PMDG livery manager.
The 737-600/700 models are an expansion to the base package and is now available for purchase, click here.
Service Pack 1c Now Available
PMDG has released Service Pack 1c for existing owners of the PMDG 737 -800/900 NGX Base Package that updates the -800/900 base package and enables it to run the -600/700 expansion pack. Click here to download.
OS: Windows XP/Windows Vista/Windows 7 (latest service packs), Flight Simulator X with SP2 or Acceleration installed.
Processor: Intel Core 2 Duo or AMD equivalent
RAM: 2GB if only running the NGX, 4GB if running other addons (scenery, traffic etc)

How to apply for a Vendor's License
Ohio law requires any person or business making retail sales of tangible personal property or taxable services to obtain a vendor's license. The proper vendor's license is determined by the type of sale and where the sale takes place. There is a one time fee of $25.00 for most vendor's licenses. A vendor's license remains valid until it is cancelled or revoked. For a listing of vendor's licenses per specific business types, take a look at our Vendor's License PDF.
Once you have determined that you need a vendor's license and what type of license, you have a few options for applying. The most immediate means is online through the Ohio Business Gateway.
You are also able to apply by printing an application from the Ohio Department of Taxation's website tax forms section and mailing in the application with your payment. The form titles are listed below in the vendor's license details section. If applying for a regular county vendor's license you can also apply at your local county auditor's office. Click here for a complete list of county auditors.
If you apply for a vendor's license online through the Ohio Business Gateway, upon completion of the transaction you will be provided with the registration confirmation. Included on the confirmation will be the vendor's license number, filing frequency, and effective date. If you apply for a vendor's license by mail, ODT will send the license once the application has been processed. Once the license is active you will be required to file returns based on the assigned filing frequency. Returns must be filed by the due date, the 23rd day of the month, following the reporting period, even if no sales are made or no tax is due. (If the 23rd falls on a Saturday, Sunday or state observed holiday the due date becomes the next business day)
Type of License
Regular County
For vendors with a fixed place of business (store, restaurant,etc,) or have a location from which they are dispatched (landscapers, janitorial and maintenance service providers,etc.). Vendors must have a separate license for each business location for which they are operating such as two or more stores, restaurants, etc.
For vendors who make sales in any county in which they have no fixed place of business (trade shows, flea markets, door to door sales). This license can be used statewide.
Seller 's Registration
No fee
For vendors outside of Ohio making sales for use, storage, or consumption in Ohio.
Consumer's Use
For purchasers who have not paid the tax to a vendor or seller. In most cases this is for out-of-state transactions
County Vendor's License- form ST 1
You must have an active county vendor's license for each fixed place of business from which taxable retail sales are made. County vendor's licenses are most commonly used for businesses that have a fixed location where customers visit, such as retail stores and restaurants. County vendor's licenses are also used for businesses from which they are dispatched such as landscapers, and janitorial and maintenance service providers. The tax rate collected is based upon the county where the business is located. There is a one time fee of $25.00 for this vendor's license.
A county vendor's license may be transferred from one existing business location to another when you move to a new location within the same county. If the business location is moving to a different county, a new county vendor's license must be obtained. A vendor, who is moving an existing business to a new location within the same county and wishes to transfer their existing county vendor's license, must submit a transfer application to the Department of Taxation requesting transfer of the license to the new location by submitting form ST-3TL. If approved, the Department of Taxation will update their file, issue a transfer license, and advise the County Auditor. There is no fee for transferring a county vendor's license from one location to another within the same county.
Any change in ownership (sole proprietor to partnership, partnership to corporation, corporation to sole proprietor, partnership to sole proprietor, etc.) requires a new license. If you are required to obtain a new vendor's license due to a change in ownership or location, a final return must be filed within 15 days of the last day of business under the original vendor's license.
Transient Vendor's License- form ST 1T
A transient license can be used statewide. This license is for retailers who transport stock(s) of goods to temporary places of business in order to make sales. Some of the most common types of sales that require a transient vendor's license are made at flea markets, and arts, or crafts shows. In home (door-to-door) sales such as selling makeup, sales through vending machines, and those who lease motor vehicles, watercraft and outboard motors, are also types of sales that require a transient vendor's license. The sales tax charged will be based on the county where the event is held. One key issue to remember is even though you may only attend one trade show per year you are still required to file a return as long as the vendor's license is still active. There is a one time fee of $25.00 for this vendor's license.
Sellers Registration- form UT 1000
Seller's registration is for retailers located outside of Ohio that make retail sales of property or services for storage, use, or consumption in Ohio. Sellers registration is only required if the retailer has significant contact with the state (nexus). Sellers who have nexus with Ohio are legally required to register, collect, and remit use tax, in the same way that the Ohio-based vendor collects and remits sales tax. Examples of activities that create nexus are: regularly having employees or other individuals operating in the state; making regular deliveries of tangible personal property into this state; or any other physical presence in Ohio. A large number of sellers who may not have nexus with Ohio register voluntarily, because they realize the collection of Ohio tax is a convenience and service to their customers, who otherwise would have to pay the tax directly to the state or risk formal assessment of the tax, penalties, and interest.
Unlike the prior listed licenses, there is no fee for this type of account. The use tax rate is equal to the sales tax rate in effect in the county where the property is used or the benefit of the service is received by the purchaser.
Consumer's Use – form UT 1008
Use tax is a complementary tax to sales tax. In general, use tax is owed by a purchaser on a transaction when the vendor does not collect sales tax (assuming the item or service being purchased is taxable). The use tax must be paid by the purchaser directly to the State of Ohio through a consumer's use tax return. To begin remitting use tax directly to the Ohio Department of Taxation a taxpayer would need to register for a consumer's use tax account. As with the seller's registration, a consumer's use tax account does not require a fee. Click here for a tutorial of the Ohio Business Gateway's registration process for a consumer's use tax account.
How and when is Sales Tax collected?
Vendors must charge and collect sales tax at the rate in effect in the county where the sale is made or obtain valid documentation detailing why the sale is exempt from tax. Tax on titled motor vehicles, off-highway motorcycles, all-purpose vehicles, personal watercraft, titled watercraft and titled outboard motors is paid to the county Clerk of Courts at the rate in effect in the purchaser's county of residence. Telecommunication services are taxed at the rate in effect in the county of the billable telephone number. Most other areas listed under services are taxed at the county rate where the service benefit is received.
The tax applies when the sale is made, not at some future date when payment is received. For example, if a vendor makes a sale on credit in January, but the money is not received until February, the tax must be reported and paid with January's return.
Vendors must charge tax on every sale unless the customer provides a properly completed exemption certificate or the sale is exempt by law. Tax must be paid to the state on every taxable sale, even if the price is not collected from the customer. Vendors who fail to send in collected taxes, make sales without a license, or make sales with a suspended or revoked license, are subject to assessments, fines, and criminal penalties.

Too broad in scope to be pigeonholed but "here" is as good as anywhere:
Awesome - a number of categories apply to these forums, practically all of them apply to all of us at some time or another. Geeks only? Not really. Even some of the sage advice under News Readers such as How to ask a question is "required reading", sadly omitted by too many, without adequate excuse. And Network information would explain so much. Yet beware, one would defy a geek not to get lost in "there" for a week. Except all true geeks would have "found" it long ago, I suppose. Why have you not told "us" before, you rotten lot?
Spare a grateful thought for those who maintain this masterpiece (their photograph), not to mention the generous host (1and1.com? - I really must read some of that Network information stuff).

what is a .unl file
what is a .unl file
Ive downloaded the unlocked maps and put them on ok, question is where can i download the latest .JCV files for my 1410?
XXXX.ASR and XXXX.SRX for voice command in ASR folder
XXXX.DB for TrafficTrends in SQlite Folder
Normally don't come with the map like the case of "City Navigator Middle East & Northern Africa NT 2013.40"
City Navigator Middle East & Northern Africa NT 2013.40
The questions:
Are they updated automatically when update the nuvi software, or in additional softwares, or there is special thread for them to be updated, like the DEM Maps
Thread: DEM Maps From nüvi 3XXX series
DEM Maps From nüvi 3XXX series
Please advise how to update the additional Garmin Additions Files (ASR, SRX & DB)
Thank you for your time
Last edited by MAMOUTHENH; 19th March 2013 at 09:12.
Hi Folks,
May I ask which .JVC file is needed for the nuvi 40?
I see that they normally come in high res and low res versions.
Thank you.
When you download a map, usually in the thread are posted JCV files for any device, asking here is pointless, it depends what map you are using, so ask at the map thread if someone can help you.
@IPW : you can as well check what's the number/name of your old JCV file... the new one, should be quite the same
You simply replace all the old ones (ASR, SRX, DB) with the new ones with simple file deletes and copies.
Great Effort Man.
Many thanks

We offer two ways to locate information:
Red wines that are more fruit-forward and lighter in tannin and body.
Medium bodied reds that go down easy, with smooth tannins and supple fruit.
Wines where earthy and/or spicy dominate the flavors – typically medium to full body.
Full bodied wines that have concentrated fruit and are higher in alcohol and/or tannins. Some need age.
A dark garnet core with a bright ruby rim and thick slow moving legs. The robust bouquet of freshly picked black currants, ripe blackberries and fresh cut lilacs balance the nose beautifully with hints of nutmeg. The medium acidity on the front palate, which starts with blueberry compote and lingonberries and transitions into spice notes of clovers, is just a preview to the wine's wonderful integration of oak with fruit. The wine finishes with intense dark chocolate shavings.
Blend: 79% Cabernet Sauvignon, 18% Merlot, 3% Petit Verdot
"Inky ruby. Smoky red and dark berry aromas are complicated by sexy vanillin oak, baking spices and fresh licorice. Silky dark berry flavors show good depth and become smokier with air. Finishes with a touch of heat and good spicy persistence; very soft tannins add gentle grip."

Insper: A brand created to inspire
An institution that turns learning into experience.
IBMEC Educacional and IBMEC São Paulo were two educational institutions that held a common origin but operated as two independent companies and schools.
They had different business objectives, distinct market positions, and acted in different geographical regions.
IBMEC São Paulo needed to change its name and review its position by seeking a completely distinct brand identity. We were called upon to articulate the new brand strategy, create the new school brand (name and logo), and plan a secure migration strategy from the current brand to the new one.
After much creative deliberation, Insper emerged as the winner. The new name and visual identity aligned perfectly with the brand strategy and helped with the construction of a strong and differentiated brand.
We created a unique position fully aligned to the objectives and characteristics of the school. The position also addressed the international scene and Insper's unique integration of research and teaching.
Our communications plan mapped the actions from pre-launch on, in order to support and guide the school through its brand transition. This would ensure consistency in the construction of the new brand.

Reminiscing With…Lev Glazman
Beauty Nostalgia is a weekly column on Beauty Counter in which we ask influencers, tastemakers, and some of our favorite industry experts to wax poetic on the sticks, salves, and sprays that helped shape who they are today.
The pro: Lev Glazman, co-founder of Fresh
The product: "Growing up in Russia, during the time of the Iron Curtain, there weren't a lot of fragrances available. There was Red Moscow for men and Red Moscow for women—and both were absolutely horrible. The women's version was like a fake Chanel No. 5, but instead of smelling like the original's beautiful notes of rose and chypre, it smelled closer to Lysol. The men's was pretty disgusting, too—it was a dark green color that stained your clothes when you sprayed it on. But everyone smelled alike at the time. The only way to obtain a different fragrance was on the black market, which is how French fragrances were smuggled into the country. They're what women bought if they wanted to have a sense of individuality. I remember my mother taking me to this black market when I was about 6. It was very risky—if you were caught you would go to jail—and whatever was smuggled into the country was very expensive. I remember she bought Lancôme Climat and paid 100 rubles for it, which today would be like paying two or three thousand dollars. It was five months' rent. Climat was a very popular scent in the sixties but never brought into the U.S. It was a rich and concentrated oriental with chypre notes. Today it would be considered old-fashioned. Still, anything that was brought into Russia and smelled different than Moscow Red was special. I remember my mom handing over the money for this fragrance and immediately taking the box and stepping aside to put it on. She was totally transformed. And that moment changed my life. I realized how powerful fragrance could be. I became infatuated with it…every time I smell [Climat], I'm taken back to this place of my childhood."— As told to Kari Molvar

Fiji Beat Brave Blossoms
Fiji beat defending champions Japan 25-19 to hand new Brave Blossoms coach Eddie Jones his first defeat at the Pacific Nations Cup on Tuesday.
Fullback Ayumu Goromaru scored three penalties to give Japan a 9-0 lead in the first 20 minutes before the flying Fijians swiftly fought back with centre Aisake Katonibau and Waisea Nayacalevu scoring two consecutive tries.
Katonibau made the most of a turnover and some poor defence to cross for a try soon after Goromaru's third penalty, while Nayacalevu eluded a Japanese tackle to add another with stand-off Setareki Koroilagilagi cashing in both to end the first half 14-9.
Koroilagilagi added two more penalties in the second half, and the visitors scored a decisive third try when a superb catch and run by Waitisoni Votu and some quick hands at pace put winger Vereniki Goneva away in the 62nd minute to make it 25-12.
Japan needed to score to stay in the game and the forwards responded with a superb driving maul that resulted in a penalty try as the Fijians tried to stop it illegally.
Goromaru added the conversion and there were just six points between the teams, but Japan continued to make unforced errors and they were unable to close the gap.
Japan - Try: Penalty try. Conversions: Ayumu Goromaru. Penalties: Goromaru (4).
Fiji - Tries: Aisake Katonibau, Waisea Nayacalevu, Vereniki Goneva. Conversions: Setareki Koroilagilagi (2). Penalties: Koroilagilagi (2).

Have you ever heard anyone call somebody a weasel? If you have, then you might think that being called a weasel is bad. But weasels are good hunters, and they are cunning, curious, strong, and fierce.
Weasels and their relatives are mammals. They belong to the order Carnivora (meat eaters) and the family Mustelidae, also known as the weasel family or mustelids. Mustela means weasel in Latin.
With 65 species, mustelids are the largest family of carnivores in the world. Eight mustelid species currently make their homes in Minnesota: short-tailed weasel, long-tailed weasel, least weasel, mink, American marten, fisher, river otter, and American badger.
Flexible Mammals
You can recognize most mustelids by their tubelike bodies and their short legs. Some, such as badgers, are heavy and chunky. Some, such as minks, are long and sleek. All are very quick and flexible.
When traveling, fishers, weasels, minks, and otters flex their spine inchworm-style, thus appearing to have humped backs. Because of their shape and flexibility, mustelids can easily enter holes and tunnels, climb trees, and swim as they hunt prey to satisfy their big appetites.
Mustelids must hunt much of the time to survive. Their long bodies do not store heat well, so they need lots of food to fuel their internal "furnace." They are active in winter too: Mustelids do not go into a deep sleep or hibernate. They often kill more animals than they can eat at one time and cache, or store, the carcasses for later.
Mustelids are adapted to hunt in different environments. Fishers and martens are expert tree climbers. Badgers have strong front legs and long digging claws for underground hunting. Otters and minks are excellent swimmers that hunt in or near lakes, rivers, and wetlands.
Most female mustelids have a special way to ensure their young are born when food is available. Called "delayed implantation," this adaptation allows fertilized eggs to remain undeveloped for many months. When food is plentiful, usually when days are warm and long, the eggs develop and the young are born.
All mustelids have two large scent glands under the tail. These glands produce a very strong liquid scent, called musk, for marking territories and food caches, attracting mates, and deterring predators.
Short-tailed weasels (Mustela erminea), long-tailed weasels (M. frenata), and least weasels (M. nivalis) live throughout Minnesota. In their northern range, including Minnesota, weasels turn white in winter. In autumn, white hairs begin to replace their brown summer coat. By winter the least weasel is mostly white, and the other two weasel species are white except for black tips on the tail. Owls and other predators sometimes focus on the black tip when attacking, which occasionally causes them to miss capturing the weasel all together.
With its long, tube-shaped body and short legs, the weasel can slip into just about any hole or burrow as it searches for food such as chipmunks, pocket gophers, rabbits, moles, rats, voles, mice, shrews, and sometimes birds, snakes, frogs, insects, and berries. It hunts almost constantly. Using its keen senses of smell and hearing, it checks out every nook and cranny. It might disappear into a hole in a log and pop out seconds later somewhere else.
Foxes, coyotes, bobcats, domestic cats and dogs, hawks, owls, martens, fishers, minks, and occasionally snakes hunt and eat weasels.
Weasels are solitary except during the breeding season. Baby weasels are born blind and almost furless in the spring. In just three months, they are full-grown and ready to live on their own.
Mink (Mustela vison) are good swimmers and spend plenty of time in and near water. They live on all kinds of land throughout Minnesota but always near water.
The mink eats a wide variety of foods. Favorite prey animals include fish, muskrats, rabbits, frogs, salamanders, diving beetles, and crayfish. Mink have also been known to eat waterfowl and chickens.
Full of curiosity, mink often sit straight up to better see whatever has captured their attention. They have to look out for owls, foxes, coyotes, dogs, and other predators.
In the spring a female mink gives birth to a litter of up to 10 kits. Mother mink might make her den under a rock pile or in an abandoned muskrat house, burrow, hollow log, or tree cavity. Her kits are born blind and helpless. By autumn the youngsters are fending for themselves.
American Marten and Fisher
With its foxlike face and attractive fur coat, the American marten (Martes americana) is a beautiful animal. At one time martens nearly disappeared from their north woods home because of logging and overtrapping for their valuable fur. Today martens range throughout the forests of northern Minnesota.
These exceptional tree climbers are also called pine martens because they prefer to live in old pine forests. Martens prey mostly on small rodents such as voles and mice, but eat whatever is available. They also hunt for squirrels, chipmunks, snowshoe hares, birds, eggs, and insects.
The fisher (Martes pennanti) is also common throughout the north woods. Unlike martens, fishers live in a variety of forests.
It's not entirely clear how the fisher got its name, because fishers rarely catch fish, though they do eat them. The fisher's favorite food is the snowshoe hare. It also eats small rodents such as mice and voles and larger prey such as raccoons, as well as nuts and berries. The fisher is one of the few predators to successfully prey on porcupines. It repeatedly attacks the porcupine's face while avoiding its quills. When the porcupine is tired and dazed, the fisher flips the animal and attacks its unprotected throat or belly.
A female fisher prefers dens inside trees or logs for raising her family of one to four young. The youngsters go off on their own before their first birthday.
River Otter
River otters (Lontra canadensis) have a reputation for goofing off. They spend a large part of their day wrestling, sliding on their bellies, and playing chasing games. These critters have even been observed playing with and teasing turtles, fish, and other animals.
Otters spend a lot of time in groups, usually of four to six family members. River otters are smaller than their West Coast cousins, sea otters. While sea otters can weigh as much as 100 pounds, most river otters weigh 15 to 30 pounds.
River otters are semiaquatic (living both in water and on land) and are quite common around Minnesota lakes and rivers. Intelligent and nosy, an otter will often swim close to boaters for a better look. It might grunt and pop halfway out of the water to get a good look at you.
An otter easily catches fish. It floats on its back or carries its catch to shore to eat for its main meal.
Otter fur is very dense and does a good job of insulating otters underwater. Glands under the otter's skin release oil to waterproof its thick fur. Because oil and water don't mix, water rolls off the oily fur and the otter's skin stays dry.
A river otter can hold its breath as long as two minutes and dive more than 40 feet deep! Mother otters coax their young into the water to teach them to swim. Webbed feet, ears and nose that close underwater, powerful hind legs, a long tail, and a flexible body help them become expert swimmers.
American Badger
Built flat, wide, and low to the ground, the American badger (Taxidea taxus) has incredibly loose-fitting skin with a thick layer of fat under it. This skin helps the badger slip and slide in underground tunnels. The fat layer grows thicker in fall to keep the badger warm through the cold season.
Not many animals can dig better or faster than a badger can. Active at night, badgers use powerful front legs and long claws to dig many long, deep burrows - up to 60 feet long - and to hunt for ground squirrels, gophers, and other burrowing animals.
Badgers live throughout Minnesota in open, treeless areas where there is plenty of prey.
Two to seven baby badgers are born blind in underground dens. When they grow up, badgers are fierce and strong. Not many predators will attack an adult badger.
Wolverines (Gulo gulo) have large feet and long claws, and look like small bears. In fact, because of its strong odor and bearlike appearance, American Indians once called the wolverine "skunk bear."
In North America, wolverines range throughout the forests and tundra of Canada and Alaska. At one time wolverines inhabited Minnesota's wilderness, but we don't know how many lived there. Wolverines are hard to find because they roam very large, remote territories ranging up to 566 square miles. Perhaps they were never more common in Minnesota than they are today. The last record of this species in Minnesota was a specimen taken in 1899 in Itasca County.
The wolverine is a good tree climber and eats just about anything, from cranberries to carrion. Gulo is Latin for glutton: Like other weasel family members, the wolverine has a big appetite. It protects its food stores by marking the food with a musk odor to keep away other carnivores.
Although not much bigger than a medium-size dog, the wolverine is ferocious. Its natural enemy is the wolf.
Skunks: Mistaken Identity?
Until recently, skunks were included in the family Mustelidae because of their scent glands and other similarities. Now some scientists believe skunks might have evolved apart from mustelids. Among differences, skunks have bigger scent glands and stronger musk than mustelids do. Some mammalogists place skunks into a family of their own, Mephitidae.
Valuable Furbearers
Mustelids are important furbearers, animals that are hunted or trapped for fur. Humans have a long history of making useful and decorative items from animal furs. American Indian chiefs adorned their war bonnets with weasel skins. French voyageurs and pioneers wore clothing made from mustelid fur. In fact, many Europeans came here to trade furs. Even today people trap many mustelids for fur.
The highest-priced Minnesota fur today is otter. It is prized for its luster, durability, and water resistance. Mink fur is favored for its combination of shiny, long guard hairs and dense, downy fur. Most mink used for today's fashions are raised on farms.
Marten fur (also known as American sable) is very soft and thick. Sometimes it is found in a rare orange-yellow color. Fisher fur is coarser, and sometimes grizzled with white hairs.
The badger's silvery long hair was popular for baggy fur coats in the 1920s. It is still used for high-quality paintbrushes and shaving brushes.
Wolverine fur is used to trim the hoods of parkas because frost doesn't stick to the long, soft, silky hairs.
Fur trappers buy licenses and follow trapping laws, which help the Department of Natural Resources manage furbearer populations.

Surgery is the most common treatment for kidney cancer. It is the standard of care for kidney cancer that has not spread to other areas of the body. Its goal is to take out the tumor or tumors. Depending on the size of your tumor and where it is, your surgeon may take out all or part of your kidney(s). In some cases your surgeon may also take out nearby lymph nodes. That's because cancer may travel to the nodes first. Taking out the lymph nodes may help prevent the spread of cancer to other parts of your body.
Kidney cancer surgery may be done using traditional surgical methods to remove the kidney, or in some cases by using laparoscopy. Laparoscopic surgery is a less invasive surgical technique that uses instruments placed through several small openings. It usually involves less time in the hospital after surgery, with less pain and a quicker recovery.
Surgery may also help people whose cancer has spread. If your cancer has spread to only a single area, your doctor may suggest surgery to remove the kidney as well as tumors far from your kidney. Here are some instances when surgery may be recommended for advanced kidney cancer.
To take out a single metastatic lesion, such as in your lungs
To ease symptoms
To prevent life-threatening problems
