London • With the Olympics and Paralympics over, Britain was staging one last celebration on Monday — to toast its own sporting success.
Hundreds of thousands of people were gathering to line London's streets as athletes, including distance runner Mo Farah and heptathlete Jessica Ennis, were honored for leading Britain to its most successful Olympic showing in 104 years.

Twenty-one floats will carry members of the Olympic and Paralympic teams from St. Paul's Cathedral to Buckingham Palace, and the British Air Force's Red Arrows aerobatic team will fly over the Mall.
The parade will be a celebration of Britain staging two trouble-free events that overcame anxiety about security concerns and inclement weather to provide a lift for the recession-hit nation. Britain's summer in the international spotlight began in May with festivities to mark the Queen's Diamond Jubilee.
"What a golden summer it has been for our country," Prime Minister David Cameron said. "I think it has given us a tremendous lift, I think it has brought the country together."
Cameron said there is also a lesson to draw from the Olympics, as countries across Europe struggle to deal with huge debts and sharp austerity programs.
"I think there is something else that we can take from this extraordinary period," he said outside Downing Street. "And that is for countries to succeed in this competitive and difficult world you need to have confidence that you can do big things and get them right.
"You need to have confidence that you can take on the best and beat the best, and I think the Olympic and Paralympics — we've absolutely done that as a country."
At the Olympics last month, Britain finished third in the medal standings with 29 golds, 17 silvers and 19 bronzes to surpass its 2008 performance. The Paralympic team also finished third, with 120 medals, missing its target of coming second.
A rousing concert featuring Coldplay, Rihanna and Jay-Z signaled the end of the London's sporting summer on Sunday night.
The Paralympic closing ceremony was staged at Olympic Stadium, the heart of the former east London industrial wasteland that was turned into a 560-acre urban park in the seven years since London won the IOC vote.
There was little talk Monday as Britain grappled with the post-games comedown about the future use of the venues or the bill of more than $15 billion to stage the festival of sport.
Instead, it was just one final opportunity to celebrate the reawakening of a nation that had dominated the international stage for the past two months.
"It wasn't the finest summer of sport we have ever known: it was much better than that," Simon Barnes wrote on the front page of The Times of London on Monday. "It was the finest celebration of humanity in a quarter-of-a-million years of our existence. It was the best party in the history of the human race."

For the last 20 years, kindergarten students in Decorah have visited a local pumpkin patch. First, the children listen to a story about how pumpkins grow. Then they enjoy pumpkin cookies before heading down to the patch to pick out their very own pumpkin.
"The kids get so excited," said teacher Marilyn Sensor.
The patch is at the home of kindergarten teacher Marilyn Sensor. It started because Sensor and another teacher wanted a place to take students to learn how pumpkins grow. So Sensor and her husband, Chuck, decided to plant the patch.
"My husband had poor health, but this was something he could do. He could ride on the tractor and lead the kids down here and he could read to them and he really enjoyed it," said Sensor.
Chuck Sensor passed away about ten years ago, but Marilyn has kept the patch going in his memory.
"My brother helps put manure on it, my son-in-law does the tilling and my daughter and granddaughter help plant, and then I get to weed it," said Sensor.
One day in October, all the kindergarten sections and students with special needs get bused to the pumpkin patch, 40 people at a time. This year, more than 170 people visited the patch and picked pumpkins.
Marilyn Sensor specifically grows pumpkins between eight and ten pounds so they're easier for the students to handle.
While the day is certainly fun for the students, Sensor also works hard to keep it educational. She said she's loved opening the patch up each year for the students.
"Kids do come back and tell me one of the things they remember from kindergarten is the pumpkin patch," said Sensor.
A memory to last a lifetime thanks to a kindergarten teacher dedicated to making learning fun.
This is Marilyn Sensor's 34th year teaching kindergarten, and she plans to retire at the end of the school year. She hasn't decided for sure yet, but this could also be the last year for the pumpkin patch.

William Dampier was an English pirate and explorer. He was important in the exploration of Australia and other islands in the South Pacific Ocean. He sailed around the world three times.
- William Dampier - Student Encyclopedia (Ages 11 and up)
(1651-1715). A buccaneer in his early years, William Dampier later explored the western coast of Australia for the British Admiralty. He also visited the islands of New Guinea and New Britain (now part of Papua New Guinea). A keen observer of natural phenomena, he was, in some respects, a pioneer in scientific exploration. One of his ship's logs contains the earliest known European description of a typhoon.

Last year, greenhouse gas emissions reached a record high of 39 billion tons. Emissions actually dropped in the United States and Europe, but substantial increases in China and India more than erased this bit of good news.
That is all the more reason to focus on innovative solutions that slow the growth in emissions from emerging markets.
The U.S.-India civilian nuclear deal is one such solution.
The key principles of this agreement were signed by President George W. Bush and Prime Minster Manmohan Singh eight years ago this week. The deal brought India's civilian nuclear program under the International Atomic Energy Agency's inspection regime. In return, Washington removed sanctions and permitted India to build nuclear power plants with foreign help. Most of the discussion leading up to the deal has focused on its potential effect on non-proliferation treaties and on the partnership between the U.S. and India.
The deal's most lasting effect, however, may well be its role in reducing the growth in greenhouse gas emissions, while giving India the electricity it desperately needs.
India is growing rapidly. In recent years its economy has expanded by 6 percent to 7 percent per year. This growth is exacerbating a voracious appetite for electricity that India's bankrupt utilities are unable to satisfy. India's electricity generation still relies almost 60 percent on coal. Blackouts are common.

A local grocery store chain is joining the fight against meth.
They're offering a medicine that can't be used for the drug.
Starting Wednesday, all 17 Reasor's locations are now carrying Zephrex-D.
It's a cold and sinus medication that has a tamper-resistant formula. That means its ingredients can't be used to create meth.
Reasor's is the first in the community to offer the new medicine, but they hope to start a trend.
"To be able to bring a product that legitimate people need and is also a product that cannot be used to make the methamphetamine," says Reasor's pharmacist Andy Becker. "It's going to have a large impact on our community."
Even though it can't be used for meth, under current state laws you still have to sign for it.

Gearbox Files 'Z-Day' TrademarkBorderlands and Aliens: Colonial Marines developer Gearbox Software recently filed for a trademark on the phrase "Z-Day," Siliconera noticed early this morning.
The filing covers "computer game software for personal computers and home video game consoles" as well as "motion picture films about action and adventure."
Going by its official website, Gearbox currently has three unannounced projects in development alongside Aliens: Colonial Marines. However, there's no guarantee that "Z-Day" is among those projects--last year, the company filed for several War Hero trademarks, including World War II Hero, but explained that such a project was "something down the road" and had yet to be discussed with any "potential partners."
We've reached out to Gearbox for additional details, and will update accordingly.

Arizona Diamondbacks
Chase Field's 'Uptown' sign is coming down
Prior to the 2010 season, the Arizona Diamondbacks dedicated a portion of their ballpark to right fielder Justin Upton.
Aptly named 'Uptown', the right field bleachers were a tribute to the player who was supposed to be a perennial All-Star and face of the franchise.
While Upton has shown glimpses of being that guy, his inconsistency has caused some to doubt his future.
And Thursday, Arizona Sports 620's John Gambadoro reported Chase Field's future will no longer included Uptown.
Uptown signs coming down at Chase! Don't read anything into it, was something agreed to at end of season by both parties...— John Gambadoro (@Gambo620) January 10, 2013
It's tough not to read anything into the move, especially with persistent trade rumors surrounding the player. Should the D-backs trade the outfielder they would have to get rid of the section, so this could be a pre-emptive move.
Then again, it's possible this decision has no ties to Upton's future other than the player not wanting his own section in the ballpark.

text: content LE Magazine July 1998 Compelling Evidence in Humans' Closest Relatives CalorieRestrictionInMonkeys By Donald K. Ingram, Mark A. Laneand George S. Roth Restricting the number of calories consumed has proven in lab experiments to increase life span in rodents. In previous issues, Life Extension has presented the findings of calorie restriction pioneer Dr. Roy Walford, as well as actual calorie-restriction practices by humans. But the impact of calorie restriction in human experiments is difficult to gauge, because the test subjects could well outlive the research sciRentists. Here, we explore first-ever calorie-restriction experimentation on some of the closest relatives to humans, and what leading scientists in the field-the authors of this report-are finding, and hope to find, about calorie restriction's impact on mankind. Part 2 of thsi series will deal with a similar research project. "Eat less, live longer," a hallmark observation in aging research, is attracting increased attention. Since the pioneering studies of Clive McCay and colleagues at Cornell University beginning in the 1930s, the calorie restriction (CR) paradigm has been an intriguing and powerful tool for experimental gerontology. What are the effects of calorie restriction? When mature laboratory rodents (rats and mice) are fed about 30 to 40 percent less than they would normally eat, the following observations almost always occur: The CR groups live 30 to 40 percent longer than those animals allowed to eat all they want; They have later and lower incidence of many age-related diseases, including cancer; and They maintain youthful levels of function later into life. These observations provide legitimacy to the claim of CR as an anti-aging treatment...perhaps the only one that most gerontologists would permit to be characterized in this fashion. Calorie restriction is intriguing for several reasons. Most gerontologists view aging as involving highly complex processes resulting from interactions of numerous genes with numerous environmental factors. But the CR paradigm offers the possibility that this treatment impacts upon a few fundamental mechanisms. If these mechanisms were identified, gerontologists might gain great insight into basic processes of aging that can be manipulated through other treatments. For several additional reasons, calorie restriction offers a powerful tool for experimental gerontology. First, it provides "robust" effects; that is, the same results are generally obtained no matter what strain or species of laboratory rodent is being used, or what type of CR is applied. Manipulation of a particular caloric source, whether from protein, fat or carbohydrates, is not that important for achieving the expected results. The restriction of total calories is the most important factor, as long as the diet is supplied with normal or even enriched amounts of essential nutrients. Secondly, CR can exert beneficial effects when implemented in rodents at many stages of life (although most gerontologists would agree that these effects diminish the later in life it is begun). And, although most research has been conducted in laboratory rodents, several studies have shown the extension of life span in other vertebrate and invertebrate species subjected to various CR regimens. Examples include water fleas, spiders, and guppies. Some gerontologists have considered that the response to CR is most relevant in short-lived species such as rodents, whose evolutionary strategy of survival involves rapid gestation, quick development, and a high number of offspring. Such species live in markedly changing environments and must take advantage of variable resources that are usually determined by seasonal factors. For example, if food is in short supply prior to a seasonal change, it would be "adaptive" (that is, beneficial) for such species to retard their growth and development, and postpone or reduce reproductive activity until food was more abundant. The effect of this strategy is to activate mechanisms that indirectly retard aging processes and promote longevity. In species such as humans, this strategy might not have evolved. Nevertheless, several possibilities exist for addressing the relevance of CR to human aging, including studies in humans; however, we chose to conduct our study in nonhuman primates, specifically rhesus monkeys. Under the auspices of the National Institute on Aging, we began our study in 1987 with 30 male monkeys. Over a 10-year period, we have expanded our study greatly to include male and female monkeys across a range of ages. Nearly 200 monkeys are now under investigation. In addition, CR studies in rhesus monkeys have been initiated at the University of Wisconsin and at the University of Maryland, Baltimore. These studies have yielded important findings regarding questions about both the mechanisms of CR and its relevance to human aging. In short, emerging evidence would support the view that CR effects are relevant to primate species. We see great consistency between rodents and monkeys in the physiologic responses to CR. Because of this consistency in response, we are beginning to believe that response to CR might be a generalized evolutionary strategy for organisms that might invoke similar anti-aging mechanisms through similar signaling pathways. Why study monkeys? In a genetic sense, rhesus monkeys and humans are closely related. These species share about 95 percent of their DNA in common. Second, rhesus monkeys have a maximum life span of about 40 years, versus 120 years for humans. Thus, the rate of aging in rhesus monkeys should be three times faster in these monkeys than humans, making any age-related differences between control monkeys and those on CR more quickly seen. But the primary reason for studying a nonhuman primate is the ability to implement experimental control. It would be extremely difficult to conduct well-controlled studies of CR in humans; people tend go off and on diets, for one thing. We wanted to maintain complete control over the diet to be assured of compliance. Moreover, human studies would involve the interaction of the treatment with many genetic and environmental factors. In our study using rhesus monkeys, we can control nearly all elements of the environment. The monkeys eat the same diet and live in the same surroundings. Moreover, we were able to assign monkeys to respective control and experimental groups such that any genetic factors would be randomly placed across the groups. The experimental design of our study included male and female monkeys spread across three basic age cohorts, since we wanted to assess the effects of CR at different stages of life, as well as to examine age differences in a wide range of variables. The groups ranged from juvenile (very young) to late adolescence/young adulthood, and old (20-year-olds, equivalent to 60-year-old humans). Also, we have monkeys assigned to long-term longitudinal studies, some with more than 10 years of data collected, while other monkeys have been assigned to shorter-term studies. The shorter-term groups have been studied with somewhat more invasive methods, such as the implantation of telemetered devices that transmit data on body temperature and heart rate. The monkeys in the longitudinal study are used for relatively noninvasive procedures that mostly involve taking blood and skin samples on a quarterly basis, or using noninvasive procedures such as bone scans. The study's CR goal was to reduce the caloric intake of experimental monkeys to 30 percent below what a normal healthy diet would be. The monkeys are under the constant, watchful eye of veterinarians trained in primate biology who monitor all procedures and evaluate the health of each monkey. All procedures conducted on the monkeys must first be approved by a special committee made up of scientists and veterinarians who monitor and review all aspects of animal care. The diet that we designed for our study is a variation of the monkey chow that has been used in laboratories for many years. In addition, the diet was enriched with 40 percent more vitamins and minerals than recommended levels to ensure that the monkeys on CR would not be nutritionally deprived. We also wanted to avoid the possibility of obesity among our controls; hence, we use a low fat diet. Like humans, monkeys will respond to calorically rich, high fat diets, and as such are used as models of atherosclerosis and adult-onset diabetes. A massive literature exists to show the life-shortening effects of obesity and its related health problems in humans and animal models. The goal of our study was to reduce the caloric intake of experimental monkeys to 30 percent below what a monkey of comparable age and body weight would normally eat, while avoiding obesity. This normal amount of food consumption changes as a function of age (larger adult monkeys eat more than juvenile monkeys), so that occasional adjustments to the monkeys' diet in the experimental groups have been necessary. Control and experimental monkeys in our study are eating exactly the same diet, but the CR monkeys are receiving less. As another feature of the study, monkeys in the experimental groups were introduced gradually to the CR regimen. Free access to the diet was allowed for the first month, and the diet was reduced 10 percent each month over a period of three months until the 30 percent reduction was implemented. Since CR of the type we planned had never been attempted in a primate, we were concerned about keeping the animals healthy. We expected the regimen to retard growth and development in young monkeys, as had been observed in numerous studies in rodents, but it was also our objective to avoid severely stunting all normal processes as might be observed in malnutrition. And indeed, we have produced monkeys of different size and body composition, but we have concluded that the regimen we introduced had no detrimental health effects. As expected, the calorie-restricted animals weighed less than the control animals, but the body weights of both groups took nearly a year to diverge. CR monkeys gained body weight at a slower rate, and they reached a plateau of body weight as adults that was about 1 to 2 kilograms (2.2 to 4.4 pounds) less than their control counterparts. There were small variations among the various groups. But it should be clear that our monkeys were not placed on a crash diet. Rather, the implementation of a 30-percent reduction in diet intake produced gradual changes in body weight. Old monkeys tend to be fatter than younger ones, but CR also reduced body fat in them (but not to the same degree). In addition to being lighter in body weight, monkeys that were started on CR early in life also were shorter. Control males from the younger groups are below 20 percent body fat, while control females are below 15 percent. CR has reduced both genders to less than 7 percent body fat. In addition, CR has also altered the distribution of fat. For example, there is not as much fat around the waist in CR monkeys, a condition that, in humans, is thought to lower the risk of heart disease. Other developmental events that had been reported in rodents also were seen, specifically the age of puberty. By defining sexual maturity based on steadily high testosterone levels, we observed that CR delayed puberty by about a year. In summary, CR in monkeys produced similar effects on body composition and development to those that had been observed in rodent studies. These findings would not appear earthshaking by themselves. Indeed, one might expect these to occur in any mammal, including humans, subjected to a 30-percent reduction in calories; however, these results were welcomed in that they generated confidence that physiological effects similar to what had been observed in rodents should also be expected in rhesus monkeys. Another expectation was, if we reduce energy intake in an organism, one might expect to observe metabolic consequences. Again in the monkey model, these changes in energy metabolism have paralleled what had been observed in rodent models. In fact, a reduction in metabolic rate was one of the early, leading hypotheses to explain the anti-aging effects of CR. It had long been recognized that mammalian longevity was inversely correlated with metabolic rate...the lower the metabolic rate, the longer the life span. The free radical theory of aging became the underpinning to this observation. If an organism is metabolizing less oxygen, then it stood to reason that fewer potentially damaging oxygen radicals were produced as part of this normal process. Metabolic rate is expressed as a ratio: units of oxygen divided by lean body mass. It is clear that on a daily basis CR animals are consuming less oxygen in absolute amounts compared with controls, but since lean body mass is reduced by CR, the metabolic rates appear similar. (Other gerontologists, such as Dr. Richard Weindruch of the University of Wisconsin, have argued that this measure of metabolism ignores other physiological parameters affected by CR. For example, organs that consume large amounts of oxygen are smaller in size in CR animals, and thus differences in metabolic rate associated with CR might be observed only in certain organs.) [Ed.: Life Extension will carry details of Dr. Weindruch's studies in a future issue.] Other physiological measures indicate that the rodent or monkey on CR has altered its basal metabolism. Rectal temperature in male monkeys is reduced by about a degree in experimental groups, compared with controls. Reduced levels of glucose in the blood of CR monkeys became apparent about a year into the study. Back to the Magazine Forum

Now trending online: A hero who can tell quite a story.
Charles Ramsey is the man who heard cries for help from the Cleveland home where 3 young women had been held hostage for about a decade. He helped kick down the door, set the women free, and called 911 and explained what was happening.
At times, he seemed more composed than the 911 dispatchers. He also sounds so animated on the recording and in subsequent TV interviews that he's become a national hero on a whole different level. His nonchalant talk comes off as humorous.
"She said 'My name is Amanda Berry. Please get me out this house,'" Ramsey explains in an interview. "So I'm thinking 'oh whatever' so I helped her get out the house. I ain't thinking you're really that girl that's missing."
Ramsey, who works as a dishwasher at a restaurant, is now an internet sensation. His name is a top trending topic on Twitter and there's a Facebook fan page dedicated solely to him.
McDonald's even tweeted that they will "be in touch" with Ramsey since he mentioned several times that he was eating McDonald's when he first heard the commotion next door.

What is the Difference Between LEED Certification and LEED Accreditation?
Buildings earn LEED Certification. Individuals who pass one of the LEED credentialing exams become LEED Accredited.
Why Get Your LEED Accreditation?
There are several career paths to which LEED knowledge can be applied. Typically, someone already in the construction industry (such as an architect, contractor, or interior designer) will use LEED to enhance their knowledge of sustainable methods and technologies, and offer their customers more services. For those new to the industry, becoming a LEED Green Associate will allow you to work on projects seeking LEED Certification, which is a prerequisite to the more advanced, specialty LEED Accreditations.
When and Where to I Take the Exam?
LEED exams are scheduled by appointment at Prometric Testing Centers and are computer-based tests. That means you can schedule an exam at a local testing center (there are over 400 nationwide and at least one in every major city) for a time that is convenient to you. Testing centers are typically open six days a week. Since all LEED exams are computer-based, you will find out your results of your exam instantly.

Get your coffee ready; you're going to want to be wide awake this week when it comes to the morning talk shows. As if it weren't exciting enough that Katie Couric is going to be co-hosting Good Morning America, now her former home, the Today show, has announced that they're adding a jolt this week by welcoming none other than Sarah Palin as co-host this Tuesday. And no, it's no April Fool's Day prank.
Can you say brilliant? It's hard to forget the interview Couric did with Palin in 2008 that went all sorts of wrong for Palin. It was the one in which she blundered on about Alaska being close to Russia, thereby giving her foreign policy cred, and in which she couldn't name any periodicals she'd read. Basically, it pretty much made her look pretty silly.
Now it's Palin's turn to get some revenge of sorts, and I think she just may best Katie at her own game.
Politically, I'm not a fan of Palin. I shudder to think of her leading our country, BUT I do think she's a fascinating, smart, and engaging woman. I think co-hosting the Today show is a perfect place for her, and I can't wait to see what she brings.
More from The Stir: Katie Couric Co-Hosting 'GMA' May Be a Little TOO Stimulating
I've long been a fan of Katie, but with her we know what to expect -- bubbly, cute, smiley, personable. Great, but I think Sarah will bring all that and more, and I think people want to see what Sarah has to offer -- even if they say they can't stand her.
On the Today show website, they promise, "She'll reveal a different side of her than you've seen before." I can't imagine what that might be, but I'll be tuning in, you betcha.
Who would you rather watch in the morning -- Katie Couric or Sarah Palin?
Image via YouTube
no way, Katie Couric is the best, Sarah is just annoying!
If Katie is going to Good Morning America I will be going back to watching the Today show. I stopped watching because of Katie. Looking forward to seeing what Sarah Palin has to offer.
I have watched the today show for years, but if they take on Palin, I'll watch GMA. I cannot STAND Sarah Palin.
Opinions is what keeps the ratings up! Hee Hee, go Sarah.. never thought the day would come where mainstream media lets in a true tea party conservative, maybe Today realizes that the grass is not as green with only liberals opinions. ~ let's play in wide open pastures!
At least with Palin I would be laughing but Couric is just boring as all FUCK!

Before & After: Toy Box
Fine & Handy
It takes a little imagination sometimes when you see a tired little piece like this at a garage sale or flea market. But Carrie at Fine & Handy had the vision and turned it into a sweet piece for her daughter:
A little pink paint, new knobs for the sliding doors, and two adorable painted birds transform the old toy box. The end result is wonderful and makes us want to run out and scavenge for a unique piece of furniture like this one.
For more on the before and after, head to Fine & Handy.

this is adorable! good job!
Soooo cute! Love the vintage feel and the birds are a sweet touch!
OMG. I love it, love it, love it!
So cute! I love how the one bird is looking back like, "Why are you following me? Gah!"
And, the sliding doors are so practical for little ones!!!
Awesome! Jealous!
so cute!
everything looks better with a bird on it :D
job well done ! :D
My first thought upon seeing the before picture was that there was no way that eyesore could be turned into anything remotely cool.....way to prove me wrong!! This is so unbelievably cute! I love the shelf space too (it's at a premium in our house with all the books we've collected over the years)
That is made of win
What an amazing restoration of this fantastic piece! So sweet!
Very sweet! Reminds me of the toy boxes from when I was a kid! Nice job!!
Awesome upcycle!
Thank you so much for featuring my little toy box. I have to tell you that this was not for my daughter. In fact that little sweetie is not even my daughter, she is my niece but I sure didn't make that very clear in my post. The very best part about this piece is that I donated it to an auction that had been set up to raise funds for an operation for the cutest little boy. I was so excited to hear that is sold for $250! This little box was a cuss to redo but that makes it all worth it. Thanks again and thank you for all the kind comments.
Carrie @ fineandhandy.blogspot.com
this is SO AWESOME and the fact that you donated it makes it even more so. great job!!!
"Put a bird on it!"
