Hyundai Hope on Wheels awards grant to Masonic Cancer Center researcher
Logan Spector, Ph.D., is the recipient of a two-year $250,000 grant from Hyundai Hope on Wheels to study the genetic causes of osteosarcoma in children. The grant will be used to examine the protein-coding portions of the genomes (known as exomes) of about 100 osteosarcoma patients and their parents. By comparing patients' exomes to their parents' new mutations will be located. Genes where these mutations cluster will be considered very likely to be involved in causing osteosarcoma. Knowing the genetic causes of osteosarcoma may suggest new therapies and screening strategies to catch tumors earlier and improve patient outcomes.

Vector graphics in pseudo-3D
Vector graphics often look much like comics: although you can hint at shading and highlights, it is more or less impossible to achieve photorealism. But this could all change now that Xara LX has been released as an open source program.
If you compare the effort involved in drawing a 3D scene using a pencil and paper with the 3D modeling approach, you will soon discover that you are quicker doing things the old fashioned way. The closest you can get to the pen and paper feel on a computer is to use a drawing tablet with a bitmap editor such as the Gimp. But with vector graphics, which are freely scalable without affecting quality, artists typically find it hard to implement reflected light gradients or shading. Vector graphics applications such as Inkscape only offer linear, radial, or conical gradients that are not suited to the task of depicting the kind of highlighting and shading you see on objects with more complex shapes.

Dubbed & Freq'd - A Remix Project
There was a time when Christian rock was little more than vapid, vanilla pop music designed to serve as a safe carrying case for cookie-cutter messages of praise and devotion. It was safe music for good kids who liked the beat of rock music but didn't want to run the risk of hearing lots of vulgarity or of supporting the promotion of messages they considered dangerous and wrong. No more. These days Christian pop music can take almost any form — hip-hop, death metal, ska — and the religious messages are very often hidden in lyrics that sound superficially like love songs. TobyMac, who is basically the Justin Timberlake of Christian pop, has always bucked the latter trend while embracing the former: his music is resolutely beat-based, but his lyrics are unabashedly devotional. "Boomin'" includes a couplet that nicely summarizes his approach: "Boomin' out the stereo system/Here to rep the Most High with this one." With Dubbed & Freq'd, tobyMac consolidates his bid for the status of World's Funkiest Jesus Freak (a designation he has cheerfully co-opted in several songs). The program consists of songs taken from Tonight and Portable Sounds, presented in new mixes that run the stylistic gamut from staggering, off-kilter dubstep ("Start Somewhere," the gorgeously Bassnectar-ish "City on Our Knees") to synth funk ("Captured") and from stomping electro ("Showstopper") to squidgy house ("Tonight"). There are moments of glorious weirdness, several of them occurring during the clattery and clangorous dubstep mix of "Start Somewhere," and a few of irritating pretense (note the fake Jamaican accent on the reggae-tinged "Hold On"). But overall, the joyful and fun easily outweigh the annoying on this fine collection.

Precision Irrigation Leads
By Tommy Horton
However, without reliable water resources, effective conservation practices and irrigation, you can forget about everything else.
It all starts with water.
No matter what part of the Cotton Belt is examined, a degree of concern always exists on this issue. And, as many experts will attest, if a problem exists in one region, it eventually becomes a problem in another region.
With changing weather problems and the threat of drought affecting so many regions of the Belt, the need for efficient irrigation practices has never been more important.
The good news for the cotton industry is that remarkable strides have been made in this area. Today, no producer takes water resources for granted anymore.
"I think producers definitely know the importance of efficient irrigation," says Jim Bordovsky, research scientist based at the Texas AgriLife Center station at Halfway in Plainview.
"There isn't a conversation out here on the High Plains that doesn't include the topic of water availability. I've been involved with this for 31 years, and it affects not just producers but everything in our ag economy."
Key Area For Irrigation
Bordovsky knows something about irrigation systems in a cotton production region that deals with sporadic rainfall patterns. From his vantage point in Plainview, he has a front-row seat for weather events in the High Plains.
The Texas researcher admits that there isn't a single "silver bullet" in the irrigation research arsenal that will solve this problem. But he believes his team will continue to see positive results in the coming years. Most of the research centers on total water efficiency from irrigation, rainfall and any available soil moisture and is based on the timing of critical water needs in different configurations with the plant.
"We can be precise in our irrigation with a small amount of water to gain very high water use efficiency," Bordovsky says. "It's all about timing. We are being forced to use precision irrigation with limited water quantities as opposed to meeting all the water needs of a plant. In a nutshell, that's what we're trying to do."
Researchers know that producers must be more efficient in their irrigation for several reasons. First, there is the question of water availability. In the Texas High Plains, that means making good use of water from the shrinking Ogallala aquifer. Second, there are recurring drought trends that occasionally wreak havoc on production efficiency.
It's because of this environment that producers in the High Plains have moved away from furrow irrigation and now opt for LEPA (low energy precision application), center pivots and drip systems. That is a logical transition in a region that can only hope for an average yearly rainfall of 18 inches.
Problems Addressed
Bordovsky has done extensive research on all irrigation systems suited for the High Plains, and he has made some interesting discoveries.
For instance, even though drip irrigation has become increasingly popular in the High Plains, plant germination was occasionally affected in early drip installations. Bordovsky has done research on this problem and believes he's making progress on the problem. Many experts have long thought that the location of drip tape in the ground and its distance from plant roots was a contributing factor to these situations.
"I think drip irrigation can be a good tool for producers," says Bordovsky. "Cost is a big issue and has to be balanced with increases in yield and water efficiency. In the High Plains, sub-surface irrigation systems have become quite popular. However, it depends on the producer you talk to about this."
Most researchers agree that drip irrigation can work, but the system must be maintained properly to realize any potential benefits. Bordovsky found that clogged lines could be cleared if manganese levels in the water were causing the problem. By adding hydrogen peroxide concentrate, the situation improved.
Other research has also documented results for breakthroughs in maintaining efficient irrigation. Bordovsky's team has studied two approaches that directly deal with existing soil moisture profiles.
One test strategy involved the benefits of "banking water" for the future. In other words, a pre-plant soil moisture profile may indicate that a field is so dry that available water for it would be better utilized elsewhere, and it doesn't need to be irrigated.
In one area, existing soil moisture and rain are saved for the next year's crop, while making more water available in other areas.
Another strategy involves applying pre-plant irrigation water. Depending on conditions, a producer can apply water, divert it to other uses or save it – all in the same season.
Both strategies attempt to maximize water efficiency through irrigation timing and, consequently, use limited amounts of irrigation water.
Praise For Producers
Bordovsky says credit must be given to today's cotton producer for being astute and sophisticated in his management practices – especially as it pertains to irrigation.
He says most producers are well aware of all the issues confronting them, and water availability is at the top of the list for Texas farmers.
"You must understand that producers have to balance the need to conserve water for the future with the current need to make a living when they farm each year," Bordovsky says.
"They have to pay bills, raise their children and send them to college. They do a good job of balancing all of these things as they make their decisions each year."
The Perfect Combination
One of Bordovsky's colleagues is Dana Porter, Extension irrigation specialist in Lubbock, and she credits an unusual industry partnership that contributes to producers embracing new irrigation techniques.
She also says current economic conditions have forced producers to become more efficient.
"Water is a limited resource here in Texas, and producers have to be as efficient as possible," she says. "We have some farmers who are rapid adopters and very savvy about the tools available to them."
Porter also points to the working relationship among irrigation equipment companies, Extension specialists, conservation experts and producers as being advantageous for all parties in the industry.
"All of us seem to be on the same page, and that's part of the strength of where we are in irrigation research," she says. "You're bound to make progress when you have this kind of cooperation among so many groups."
Urban Sprawl Continues
One challenge facing producers in nearly every cotton-producing state is the tenuous relationship between ag communities and urban sprawl. This encroachment of city populations into farm areas is creating water rights battles across the country.
Porter believes it is another example of why farmers should be efficient in their irrigation.
"We see this problem everywhere nowadays," she says. "It definitely puts more pressure on the producers to demonstrate that they are more efficient in their practices.
"Producers have always been good stewards of the land. But that's as much of an economic survival strategy as it is basic values."
As one researcher so aptly put it, the future looks good for cotton production on the Texas High Plains – mainly because of the crop's ability to grow on lower levels of water.
"That's what makes this crop so special," he says. "It knows how to survive under pretty difficult conditions."
High Plains Producers Embrace Irrigation Technology
For many years, producers within the High Plains Underground Water Conservation District No. 1, headquartered in Lubbock, Texas, have taken proactive stances toward water conservation by being responsive to new irrigation technologies as they are developed.
"Whether it is use of LEPA systems with furrow dikes, subsurface drip irrigation, irrigation scheduling based on computer models and/or soil moisture sensors or new cotton varieties, our producers understand that they must be good stewards of the area's groundwater supply," says HPWD general manager Jim Conkwright.
"Water is the backbone of our agricultural economy, and we appreciate our producers' efforts to manage water wisely."
Annual depth-to-water level measurements made in 2009 in a network of 1,200 privately owned water wells within the district's 15-county service area indicated an average annual decline of -0.72 of a foot for the 10-year period (1999-2009) and -0.42 of a foot for the five-year period (2004-2009).
"From the cotton gins and the local civic clubs to the state legislature, groundwater is on everyone's mind," Conkwright says. "Public interest in water issues is as high as I have seen it."
Recent Trends In Ag Water Management
• Improvements on irrigated acres between 1998 and 2003 have resulted in reduced water use on 18.5 million acres.
• Crop yields improved on 18.7 million acres and decreased energy costs on 15.3 million acres.
• U.S. Geological Survey reports the average irrigation application rate decreased from 43.6 acre-inches per acre in 1950 to 29.8 acre-inches in 2000.
• USDA Farm and Ranch Irrigation Survey reports that $1.13 billion was invested in irrigation equipment, facility and improvements during 2003.

FALL RIVER (AP) - A convicted sex offender from Westport has been sent to prison for up to 35 years for raping a child over a number of years starting when she was 12 years old.
Edward Pacheco Jr. was sentenced Monday in Fall River Superior Court to 25 to 35 years in prison and 40 years of probation. The 42-year-old Pacheco was found guilty in September of charges including statutory rape and rape of a child by force.
Pacheco was a friend of the victim's family.
The Herald News reports that Judge D. Lloyd Macdonald said Pacheco "must be separated from society for a significant number of years, to protect other children."
Pacheco had been previously convicted of child rape in a separate case.
His lawyer sought a shorter sentence.

"Not bad for a Drug store gar"
The AyC Grenadier cigar is, as far as drug store or gas station cigars go, in the upper end of the category. Like most well made machine cigars the flavor and burn and construction are almost always consistent. Sure once and a while you will get a cigar that is plugged, or the hole is punched incorrectly, but that is not often. The flavor is a very mild, almost blandish, dry tobacco flavor, with a hint of flavorings added to the homogenized sheet binder. The flavors in the binder taste a bit like chocolate and vanilla. This is not a sweet cigar, but as I said dry. The finale fourth of the cigar can be bitter at times, I think this is caused by the binder. Over all, as machine made cigars go, this is better then a Phillie or Dutch Masters, but not as good as a Muniemaker.Todd in Connecticut September 6, 2012
"Were once excellent. Now are horrible."
I started smoking the AyC Grenadier darks in 1983 and have LOVED them up until now. There would always be a low percentage of them that would deliver a bitter, ugly tar to your mouth after smoking it down a way. Recently, they are nearly ALL bad. You have to throw them away in the middle of the smoke. Something seriously wrong at AyC on these.Darryl in Cincinnati OH August 7, 2012
"Used to be a decent cigar"
These used to be a decent in between cigar, now it seems every other one is plugged or has holes in it making it unsmokable. They are in need of some serious quality control.John Connolly in NJ April 28, 2012
I put these in a humidor and after a couple weeks not a bad quick smoke. For the price worth it.Ron W in Sacramento ca December 20, 2011
"Good for the Price"
I picked these up at my local gas station. I'd been eyeing them for a while and finally checked them out. They had a nice flavor, and were usually consistent throughout. I used them for a nice morning smoke and they fit pretty well for the job. They were a bit stiff upon opening, but I stuck them in my humidor and they were quite a bit better. The burn wasn't as hot and it made for a smoother smoke. The draw was a bit hard on a few of them. All in all, a good walue for the price.in June 16, 2011
"not bad"
Bought a pack of these at local grocer, they were out of my usual, lucky for me the clerk was a stogy smoker too. But she recommended these AYC's. She was Cuban so I figured she knows her stuff when it comes to cigars, anyways I was pleased with the quality and taste of these "lancer" type cigars. Have purchased them from here on without hesitation. NOTE: For the price which is nearly 7Bucks a 6 pack, yeah thanks to shimp tax Famous Smokes 10-6 packs are a bargain. Don't hesitate these are great little, but long knock a rounds. oh yeah you may find it better to chop the tip as it can get a little soggy.jsctthll in ga November 17, 2009
"Dried out, many broken and with holes from machine"
I ordered these when Garcia Vega was out of stock. These were dried out, many with holes from wrapping machine, many broken by wrapping machine, poorly packed resulting in an inconsistent draw. A truly inferior cigar!Thomas in Redmond, Washington November 25, 2007
"This is NOT the same as the"Gas Station Grenadier""
Burn Consistency Draw Appearance Taste Construction Well, after being a fan of little cigars, and....SOME cigarillos (gas station cigarillos are just weird, something's wrong with them, they are much worse than gas station cigars), and cheap cigars, i decided that maybe i would like "fancier" cigars. I kept an eye out for gas stations/grocery stores with higher class cigars, and I found some AyC Grenadier Minis and Garcia y Vega Cigarillos. They were almost exactly the same size, and i was incredibly displeased by both. They were VERY sharp in taste, and almost burned my mouth. They are currently aging for a LONG time, to see if some day they will be palatable. That was after i ordered my full size Grenadiers, these panatelas. I figured "oh great, i tried them and they suck. Good thing it was so cheap." ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ And cheap they are. 5 of these will cost less than most 5 packs of crappy cigars at a gas station. When they arrived, I noticed they were MUCH bigger. This brings me to my first point, ***the appearance. 8 out of 10.*** The cigar is longer than most panatelas, but it matches the thickness perfectly. Also, though not perfect as far as shape, the few dimples here and there seem to add to the aesthetic quality of the cigar. The "cap" at the end has a hole punched in it, so for a while i was confused as to whether or not i was to cut it. I decided to, which revealed how neatly the cigar was packed, which looked good and brings me to the next point: [By the way, i think you don't have to cut them, the hole is there so you can smoke them without cutting them] ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Consistency, burn and draw ***Consistency: 7.5 out of 10.*** The aforementioned dimples show slight unevenness in the cigar, and the tobacco, though neat, is packed tighter at some places it seems. ***Burn: Not much to say here. It does. I didn't see a very large ember at the end, and it doesn't produce a lot of smoke. This contributes the mildness.*** ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ***Draw: 9.2 out of 10*** in my opinion. The draw is perfect for me, i can't say anything bad about it. might not be right for everyone though, and cutting it differently doesn't seem to provide a WHOLE lot of change in draw, so you're stuck with it. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ***Construction: 7 out of 10.*** Fair construction, it isn't going to explode on you, but i have had one of them start to come unraveled. Probably isolated incident, but either way it's not something one really wants. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Taste: very mild compared to what i've smoked, which is not a whole lot, so it is basically just my opinion. I have a very weak palate so things get too strong for me easily, but i can finish this cigar without much trouble and it doesn't get too hot. ***9/10 for me***, but the mildness might be a bit too mild for some, so ***8/10 overall.*** ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Overall: 8.5. Bump it up to 9 if you factor the price. If you've had the gas-station Grenadiers, either way, you will most likely like this cigar whether or not you liked the cheap ones. Something is just different about them, i think they might be made in a different plant or something.Pete in WI June 30, 2007
"Bought cigars at Texaco Mini-Mart"
I bought a little three pack ($5.35) of the Anonio y Cleopatra Grenadier "Churchill" Maduro's on the way back from the ranch one evening. Didn't feel like going all the way back into town. Figger'd they'd taste as cheap as they are and where I bought 'em. Was I surprised! They're NOT Churchills (size was only like 6x50 or thereabouts) but they draw good, nice ash, stay lit, and taste pretty darn good. I was pleasantly surprised!Whiskey in Ceres, CA August 18, 2005
"A Bargain product"
I am new to cigar smokin' I found the AyC Grenadier 6pack a relative bargain at my local smoke shop on clearance, 3packs (of 6 ea) for $7.35. They have an unusual green colored wrapper and there is no need for you to cut either end. I inhale and hold for approx 10 seconds before exhaling. At 2/3rds through, I am so high on nicotine, I have to sit down for a good ten minutes -wow! So far I have really enjoyed this brand but it does leaves a bad taste on my lips, not in my mouth.Pete in SE PA August 18, 2004

Readers' Opinions
From James Trexen on March 14, 2012 at 9:32 AM
PhilharmMagic is one of my favorites and a must do at WDW, but I just gotta go with Soarin on this one.
From Stuart Henny on March 14, 2012 at 9:40 AM
Soarin' FTW!
From Mike Gallagher on March 14, 2012 at 9:56 AM
Haven't seen either. but I like Soarin' type rides. I have fond memories of If You Had Wings at MK in the 70's. I imagine that's loooong gone, but Soarin' strikes me as that type of ride, with different motion and a better film. On The old ride, you rode through different rooms for scenes. I understand on Soarin' it's a self-contained room with different scenes.
From James Rao on March 14, 2012 at 10:13 AM
Very tough choice for me as both attractions are among my favorites. Overall, though, I gotta go with the better "experience", which I think belongs to Soarin'.
Ugh, tough call.
From David Brown on March 14, 2012 at 10:20 AM
I'm in the minority here but having heard so much about Soarin' before riding it I was actually underwhelmed. It honestly didn't do much more for me than those old circle-vision films that they had in the 80's. After all it's just an Imax film you watch in a sling...
So Mickey gets my vote today.
I'll duck for cover now....
From Dominick D on March 14, 2012 at 10:21 AM
I went with Philharmagic. And for the record, I've never been on Soarin because of my Asthma.
From O T on March 14, 2012 at 10:39 AM
@Dominick You should always prevent getting an Asthma attack, and the ride has smells that could trigger an attack. Standing in an elevator with people who wear heavy (cheap!)perfume can trigger my astma. Soarin didn´t (my mum and I both have astma) so you could try it.There are a lot of attractions at Disney that have smell so do you skip them all? Soarin also got my vote.
I just hate the cold bloodless cgi characters. Was it hand drawn it would be awesome!
From Brad W on March 14, 2012 at 11:29 AM
I agree with David. Soarin' reminded me of an IMAX film from the 90's. So what if you get pulled up in the air before hand. I was very unimpressed.
PhilharMagic is a great collection of old characters and songs, so it gets my vote.
From Tyler Stover on March 14, 2012 at 11:59 AM
As much as I love Soarin's visuals, theme, and ride mechanics, the horrible transitions (or lack of transitions) really brings it down. PhilharMagic is my favorite 3D movie and I always have fun watching it. This was a close call, but I'll go with the underdog and vote MPM here.
From Duncan Henny on March 14, 2012 at 12:06 PM
love them both, but i had to go for soarin'
From Dominick D on March 14, 2012 at 12:25 PM
O T, sometimes my mom's perfume can get me coughing. I was at Epcot Sunday, and it had an 80 minute wait, so I didn't ride it.
From robert morris on March 14, 2012 at 12:26 PM
This is a tough one seeing as Soarin is a RIDE not a Show.
From AJ Hummel on March 14, 2012 at 12:58 PM
I consider Soarin' Over California a ride, and I'm more of a ride person than a show person, so I voted for Soarin'. Either way, however, it is my favorite ride at DCA other than California Screamin' and I haven't seen Mickey's PhilharMagic so I knew I'd be voting for it since the brackets were announced.
Once again, Soarin' Over California and Carousel of Progress should have swapped brackets in this tournament since Soarin' is called a Simulator RIDE on this site and Carousel of Progress is labeled an Animatronic SHOW.
From Stevo B on March 14, 2012 at 1:30 PM
I have never been that impressed with Soarin', a lot of the ride experience has to do with what row you're in, plus last time I was on it some of the effects weren't working. I'm sitting this vote out, I've seen PhilharMagic, it was ok but I have to admit I'm getting tired of sitting in front of screens, moving seats or not.
From Caroline Davis on March 14, 2012 at 1:59 PM
I will never understand the appeal of Soarin', but each to their own.
From Jason McLaughlin on March 14, 2012 at 3:42 PM
Soarin' is ok and a pleasant experience but, as others have said, it lacks that special something whereas PhilharMagic is a great 3D experience that has clever use of the screens, 3D and special FX. So Mickey gets my vote here :o)
From Json Son on March 14, 2012 at 5:23 PM
Neither. I vote for Soarin Over Philarmagic. Give me the ride mechanics of Soarin with the Philarmagic film.
From Brad W on March 14, 2012 at 6:16 PM
I would say that Soarin' is much more of a show than a ride, Robert. You are essentially sitting still while watching a screen. It's just like any other 3D/4D show.
I really don't understand why people clamor to wait an hour to watch a big screen and smell oranges. I'd much rather watch some great disney characters and listen to great Disney music. Although I do understand the non-hand drawn argument.
From Mark Hollamon on March 14, 2012 at 6:26 PM
I voted Mickey's PhilharMagic because Soarin' at Epcot is in TERRIBLE shape and is in need of a serious film rehab. The last time I rode Soarin' was last Wednesday and it was just very weak with lines through the film about 50% of the time.
At least MP is a fresh attraction that works properly!
From Mark Fairleigh on March 14, 2012 at 6:38 PM
Aaaargh...this is so tough...but went with Soarin'. Makes me want to hop on a plane to Cali every time.
From 220.127.116.11 on March 14, 2012 at 6:58 PM
@ brad It's not really a debate on ride or show for Soarin & CoP
CoP is the guinness book of records holder for most SHOWS every done, not most rides and its introduction includes this distinction
Soarin is a ride as shown by its height restrictions, what other show has height restrictions? and also you are getting on an airline as explained by Patrick Warburton not entering a theater, how is it any different than Simpsons or Star Tours?
From Sylvain Comeau on March 14, 2012 at 10:59 PM
Soarin' is a ride using screens. I voted for PhilharMagic because it more logically belongs in this category, and because it's an amazing 3D movie. I do love Soarin' from the front row, however.
I think PhilharMagic could have won this category, if it hadn't been up against one of the most popular rides in any Disney park.
From Rob P on March 15, 2012 at 3:39 AM
Mickey's PhilharMagic is a nice show but it doesn't have the sense of theater that Soarin' has in abundance. It's fun loading into the seats at Soarin' and the anticipation of something spectacular, as you dangle from your lofty position, is more than satisfied as you experience the sights, sounds and smells of California. Is there another State in the US with so much diversity of spectacular landscapes ?
MP has humour and some very good effects. I like it a lot. But Soarin' is an uniquely uplifting experience in more ways than one. You only have to see the expressions on the faces of the audience as it leaves the auditorium to know that this is a surefire winner. But I can see this being a relatively close vote because MP has more of a Disney connection with the characters and music whereas Soarin' could be at any Park.
From Mark Kausch on March 15, 2012 at 6:53 AM
I voted for Mickey. I haven't been to see it yet, but I've been on Soarin' multiple times. A great ride at DCA, but for SO many years it didn't have much to compete with it. And, somewhat like David Brown, I hope I'm not underwhelmed if/when I see PhilharMagic.
From 220.127.116.11 on March 15, 2012 at 7:21 AM
I have heard from others about the screen being "dirty" at Soarin' in Epcot and that it was starting to take away from the experience and didn't feel that way when I visited in 2010...
Then I visited last month and the "floaters" were definitely very distracting especially with scenes where there was white (skiing, surfing etc.) to the point where you weren't even paying attention to the film but rather watching to see where the dust bunny will show up on the next screen almost like an anti hidden Mickey
Not sure if the DL version was suffering from this but WDW definitely needs to be cleaned up and digitized.
From Joshua Conlon on March 15, 2012 at 7:57 AM
Sorry, but Soarin is overrated to me. I rode it for the first time in Jan 2011, and it seemed like an IMAX that you just sat alot closer to.
From Donna McKay on March 15, 2012 at 10:02 AM
I missed the vote on this one....so glad you got it right ;)

Public Tennis Center nears completion
Date: October 28, 2009
by: Kurt Schultheis | City Editor
Longboat Key Public Tennis Center Manager John Mracheck says his staff is "holding its breath" in the hopes the new tennis center building will be functional in time for two back-to-back tournaments in December.
The Longboat Key Town Commission approved a site plan amendment to the Longboat Key Public Tennis Center last year for a $732,000 project that includes a larger 1,750-square-foot tennis building/pro shop.
Besides creating retail space, the new building will provide a larger check-in space for tennis players, more office space, larger restroom facilities and a tennis observation viewing deck.
Although the commission budgeted $732,000 for the project, lower bids will most likely make the projected cost $584,144, or $147,856 cheaper than the project's original cost estimate.
The town is funding the project, but the intent is to use Sarasota County infrastructure surtax monies to pay back the town.
The two-story building is already looming over the town's U.S. Post Office location on Bay Isles Road, and construction workers are working to finish the building as soon as possible.
"Our goal and the town's goal is to make every effort to get the facility not completely done, but done at least to the point where we can utilize portions of the building and the reconfigured parking lot by Dec. 1," Mracheck said.
The improved tennis center is set to host the United States Tennis Association (USTA) National Senior Clay Courts Tournament Dec. 2. It's the fourth time the clay-court tournament has been held at the tennis center and the first time the event is deemed a national event.
And, the following week, the tennis center will host the 10th anniversary of The Observer Challenge, a team-tennis tournament sponsored by The Longboat Observer.
Mracheck said the town hopes the major aspects of the project will be complete before the clay-court tournament.
"Only the landscaping and teaching court will not be finished," Mracheck said.
The tennis center's new outdoor viewing deck is scheduled to be complete this week.
If the new building cannot be utilized in time for the tournaments, Mracheck said a plan is in place to organize and operate the tournament out of the makeshift trailer that his staff currently uses.
But Public Works Director Juan Florensa is hopeful plan B will never have to be utilized.
"We are hoping to be completely finished and ready for the tournament," Florensa said.
The Longboat Key Public Tennis Center, 590 Bay Isles Road, opened in November 1998 on 2.3 acres of land that Arvida donated to the town.
The tennis center has grown from approximately 300 cardholders who pay $300 per year, or $450 per family, to more than 400 cardholders who pay $550 a year, or $750 per family.
Rates increased last year for the first time since 2005 to pay for the addition of four courts. The tennis center has grown from six courts to 10 courts and will add an additional teaching court this winter as part of the new project.
The tennis center has three full-time employees and eight part-time employees.
The new tennis center building will replace the current 280-square-foot Longboat Key Public Tennis Center office and check-in building, which tennis officials and players have said is too cramped.
The project also includes 31 additional parking spaces.

LiveDani King goes for gold
This live event has finished
- Dani King, Laura Trott and Joanna Rowsell set another new world record as they beat USA to win gold in the women's team pursuit.
Well, that will do it for me today. A wonderful afternoon, and congratulations to Dani King.
The medal ceremony is taking place now. King, Trott and Rowsell step onto the podium and salute the crowd. King is the first to receive her gold medal, followed by Trott and then Rowsell. King, who is unable to contain a beaming smile, sings the national anthem proudly, before they receive an enormous ovation from the fans in the velodrome.
It's mad, I actually can't believe it. It's been my dream since I was eight and we've just gone and done it.Laura Trott
We're like sisters, and I couldn't have done it without them. They were absolutely incredible and I can't believe we've done it, it's absolutely amazing.Dani King
I could tell we were winning by the noise of the crowd. They were shouting so loud and that really spurred us on in that last kilometre.Joanna Rowsell
That was an amazing performance from the British girls. They finished in a time of 3mins 14.051secs. They nearly caught the Americans by the end of the race. There are tremendous scenes in the velodrome, as King, Trott and Rowsell celebrate Olympic gold.
2,000m in and it's now more than two seconds!
1,500m and the gap is now nearly two seconds. The gold is theirs barring disaster.
1,000m in and Britain are crushing the Americans. They are nearly three-quarters of a second ahead.
They're off!
Here we go. King, Trott and Rowsell out onto the track. They get a huge standing ovation as they head to the start line. GB v USA for the gold.
Canada pip the Aussies for the bronze in a thrilling race. It's about to get very loud now...
New Zealand win that one. Now it's the bronze medal ride between Australia and Canada.
We've got the fifth and sixth-placed race between Netherlands and New Zealand right now. The Bronze medal contest will follow, then it's the turn of the British girls.
The action is due to get underway in the velodrome shortly. The start will be slightly later than officially scheduled.
To give you some idea of how quick King, Trott and Rowsell ride at, here's this picture from their win over Canada (Andrew Milligan/PA Wire):
ANOTHER WORLD RECORD!! @JoannaRowsell @DaniKing1 @LauraTrott31 fantastic!!! 3:14!!— @chrishoy 04 August 2012
The bronze medal ride, which is due to start at 5.42pm, will be contested by Australia and Canada.
The time is 3mins 14.682secs - nearly a second better than the time they posted yesterday. It's the fifth ride in a row that this trio have posted a new world record. Great Britain will now face USA for the gold medal in just over an hour.
WORLD RECORD! King, Trott and Rowsell are in the final.
Canada are putting up a decent fight, but it won't be enough. At 2,000m, the GB girls are 1.752 seconds ahead. They could smash the world record.
Britain go into an early lead, and at the first 1,000m split they are 0.572 seconds ahead of Canada. They're on world record pace too.
And they're off...
A huge cheer from the velodrome as the British girls appear. They're just 3,000m away from the final. Canada are their opponents, but it's unlikely they can live with King, Trott and Rowsell here. Perhaps the bigger question is can the Brits beat their world record time?
And USA win to advance to the final, in a time of 3mins 16.853secs. That's still over a second slower than what Great Britain posted yesterday.
Here we go with heat three: USA v Australia. The winner goes through to the gold medal race.
Netherlands beat Germany in heat one. New Zealand beat Belarus in heat two. Those teams, along with the two losers in the USA v Australia and Great Britain v Canada races, will be ranked according to their times. The best two will then ride off against each other for the bronze medal.
There has been plenty of support pouring in for the 21-year-old. Here's our story on the backing Dani is receiving .
To get you started, here is a bit of background on Dani and the story of how she got into cycling . Not that I want to encourage any kids out there to skip their school lessons.
Good afternoon sports fans, and welcome to our live blog covering Hamble track cyclist Dani King's pursuit (get it?!) of Olympic gold.
It's been quite a day for Team GB so far, with two more gold medals in the rowing, Jessica Ennis almost certain to add another later on when the heptathlon comes to a conclusion, and Mo Farah going for the 10,000m title tonight.
But, for now, the attention turns to the Olympic Park velodrome, where the British trio of Dani, Laura Trott and Joanna Rowsell are hot favourites to win the women's team pursuit. And for good reason. The double world champions set a new world record time in qualifying, as they finished nearly four seconds ahead of their nearest rivals.
After yesterday's timed laps, we now enter the head-to-head stages. Canada, who were fourth in qualifying, will be GB's opponents in the semi-finals, while United States face Australia for a place in the gold medal ride.
The session starts at 4.11pm, with two classification races due before the top four teams battle it out. The finals then begin at 5.42pm. So sit back and enjoy the ride…

2 New Growth Catalysts Could Send This Stock Higher
Jordo is a member of The Motley Fool Blog Network -- entries represent the personal opinion of the blogger and are not formally edited.
Sarepta Therapeutics (NASDAQ: SRPT) is focused on developing first-in-class RNA-based therapies to improve and save the lives of people affected by rare and infectious diseases. Its diverse pipeline of RNA-based therapies has given way to its lead program, eteplirsen, for Duchenne muscular dystrophy, a debilitating and life-threatening genetic disorder, as well as potential treatments for some of the world's most lethal infectious diseases. After twenty two years in relative obscurity and almost $370 million in cumulative losses, the company finally seems to have a promising drug candidate in eteplirsen, an "exon skipping" compound for the treatment of Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD), a progressive disease that typically leaves patients wheelchair bound by their teens and dead shortly thereafter. Yet, despite a positive update from the company's critical phase 2b trial, the share price slid recently, but is still up almost 500% year-to-date.
Pipeline drug developments
The Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD) Program presented preclinical safety data showing eteplirsen was well tolerated up to the maximum dose of 320 mg/kg in a nine month repeat dose toxicity evaluation in cynomolgus monkeys, at the 8th Annual Oligonucleotide Therapeutic Society meeting. The company announced that treatment with its lead exon-skipping compound, eteplirsen, met the primary efficacy endpoint, increase in novel dystrophin, at 48 weeks, and achieved a significant clinical benefit on the primary clinical outcome, the 6-minute walk test (6MWT) over the placebo/delayed treatment cohort through 48 weeks in a phase 2b extension trial in DMD patients.
The Infectious Disease Programs recently announced that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has granted orphan drug designation for its lead infectious disease drug candidates, AVI-7288 and AVI-7537, for the treatment of Marburg virus and Ebola virus, respectively. The FDA has also granted Fast Track status for the development of its lead infectious disease drug candidates, AVI-7288 and AVI-7537, for the treatment of Marburg virus and Ebola virus, respectively. Sarepta has been developing these platform-based therapeutics under a U.S. Department of Defense (DoD) contract managed by the Joint Project Manager Transformational Medical Technologies (JPM-TMT) Project Management Office. Sarepta received notice from the DoD that the Ebola portion of the Company's contract for the advanced development of hemorrhagic fever virus therapeutics was terminated for the convenience of the government due to funding constraints. The company has been awarded a new contract for approximately $3.9 million to evaluate the feasibility of an intramuscular route of administration using AVI-7288, the company's candidate for treatment of Marburg virus.
For the third quarter of 2012, Sarepta reported an operating loss of $6.9 million, compared to an operating loss of $11.3 million in the third quarter of 2011. The decrease in the operating loss was primarily due to reductions in research and development related to non-DMD programs. Revenue for the third quarter of 2012 was $7.6 million, a $100,000 increase from the third quarter of 2011. The increase was primarily due to a $1.1 million increase in revenues from the Marburg portion of the July 2010 Ebola Marburg Department of Defense Contract, which was partially offset by $900,000 in reduced revenues from the Ebola portion of the contract due to receiving a stop-work-order on August 2. Additionally, on October 2, the Department of Defense terminated the Ebola portion of the contract due to funding constraints. Net losses for the third quarter of 2012 amounted to $49.6 million ($2.17 per basic share), compared to net losses for the third quarter of 2011 of $4 million ($0.18 per basic share). The increase in net loss was primarily due to a $49.8 million increase in non-cash expenses due to a change in the valuation of Sarepta's outstanding warrants.
Sarepta had cash and cash equivalents of $38 million as of September 30, a $13.5 million increase from June 30. Sarepta subsequently announced that it has priced an underwritten public offering of an aggregate of 4,950,495 shares of its common stock at a price to the public of $25.25 per share and anticipates the aggregate net proceeds from the offering will be approximately $118.2 million. Sarepta intends to use the net proceeds from the offering for general corporate purposes, including the continued development of eteplirsen and other product candidates.
There is currently no treatment for Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD) though GlaxoSmithKline (NYSE: GSK) could be a future competitor. GlaxoSmithKline, which has partnered with Prosensa, is also working on a drug to combat Duchenne muscular dystrophy. The companies recently noted that it doesn't expect FDA approval for its drug, Dispersen, until at least 2014, which gives Sarepta plenty of time to try and get eteplirsen onto the market.
Another biotech stock that has been a big mover recently is Acadia Pharmaceuticals (NASDAQ: ACAD), which tested its flagship product pimavanserin in the treatment of Parkinson's Disease Psychosis (PDP) and gained more than 100% in one day because of promising phase 3 data. Pimavanserin failed a similarly-structured clinical trial back in 2009, so investors were relieved that the drug proved its efficacy this time.
Amarin (NASDAQ: AMRN) recently earned FDA approval for its flagship drug Vascepa (Omega 3 fatty acid), which is used to combat very high triglyceride levels. The market potential for Vascepa is large with estimates of over 1.8 billion in sales by 2018. Once the NCE status is determined, Amarin will likely decide whether to sell the company or launch Vascepa on its own. Once the NCE status is determined by the FDA, it should give potential investors a better idea on how to value the stock.
There are two important catalysts coming up for Sarepta. The first catalyst is the 60 week data for eteplirsen confirming the excellent 48 week clinical data which is expected by the end of the first quarter of 2013. The second is the possibility of accelerated approval, because the FDA allows companies asking for an accelerated approval for currently unmet medical needs to use surrogate endpoints. There is no certainty that this approval would be forthcoming. However, positive news from either could result in a spike in the share price. Investors should do further research and decide if Sarepta fits in their portfolio.

3 Key Beauty Tips for Triathletes
Written on May 15, 2012 at 9:34 am , by April Franzino
The number of people participating in triathlons has increased 50 percent in just the past two years—putting involvement in the U.S. at an all-time high. If you're one of them, Brooke Jackson, M.D., a dermatologist and director of the Skin Wellness Center of Chicago, shares these key beauty tips for each leg of a triathlon.
- SWIMMING: Coat your hair lightly with conditioner before you put on your cap to protect against drying, color-stripping chlorine.
- BIKING: Wear sunglasses to shield your eyes (bikers have an increased risk of cataracts) and prevent squinting, which causes crow's feet to form.
- RUNNING: Put on a hat made of a breathable material like Dri-Fit to protect your scalp from the sun and ward off strand damage.

Unbelievable Stat !!!!!
The average QB rating against our Defense is over 100.0 !!!
I'm not running all the numbers (because the season stats haven't been updated yet) for the other teams, BUT I estimate that as being 31st or 30th in the league.
Basically, QBs are efficient as hell against us. They're having more passes caught then they do in practice.

What is the follow-up after treatment for an abnormal Pap smear?
Follow-up is crucial after treatment for an abnormal Pap test. Women who have undergone any one of the above-described treatment procedures require special follow-up schedules. They must be evaluated and checked until the physician is fully convinced that routine Pap smears can be resumed.
What is the current status of human papilloma virus (HPV) testing?
HPV is a sexually transmitted virus that may be spread from one person to another even when the genital sores are not visible. Many sexually active people are carriers of HPV, very often without even knowing they are carriers. It is estimated that up to 60% of sexually active women harbor this virus on their cervix or in their vaginal area. It is not unusual for a woman to be unaware that she has HPV - only to find out that her Pap smear shows evidence of HPV.
HPV is not curable, although the cellular damage it causes is generally treatable and a vaccine against the four most commonly found HPV types is available. A woman with HPV needs careful and regular long-term medical follow-up to watch for any resulting HPV-associated pre-cancerous cellular changes.
There are over 70 different strains of HPV virus. Based on the observation that certain strains of HPV (for example, types 16 and 18) are more likely to be associated with cervical cancer, some people have advocated testing HPV infected women in order to identify their specific strain of HPV. Following an abnormal Pap smear, this information would then be used to help select the specific treatment strategy. In other words, a physician would more aggressively treat a woman with an abnormal Pap smear if she tests positive for an HPV type that is more likely to be associated with the development of cervical cancer.
However, even the so-called "low-risk" HPV strains can still be associated with cervical cancer at some time in the future and not all of the high-risk HPV strain abnormalities will necessarily result in cervical cancer. Furthermore, the HPV typing is expensive. The main use of HPV testing in screening for cervical cancer is for determination of treatment and follow-up recommendations for women with Pap smears interpreted as atypical squamous cells of undetermined significance (ASC-US) . Those with positive tests for high risk HPV types and an ASC-US smear are referred for further evaluation.
HPV testing along with Pap screening (a combined test) was approved for primary screening for cervical cancer by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in 2003. This combined testing has been used as an alternative screening test for low risk women aged 30 and over at intervals of three years or greater.

However, we will not be going with this design, because the background is yellow; online it looks like an off-white, creamy color, which is more intense and yellow in person. unfortunately this does not agree with our wedding colors, but overall - a beautiful card!"

Simply put, you're just not going to find any one series with as much info on Brazilian Jiu Jitsu as this one. This makes a great training aid or referance for ALL Grapplers alike. In my opinion it's a must have set by two of the best Jiu Jitsu guys out there, Joe Moreira and Randy Bloom.
