For this to work in the face of stiff competition from Mog, Spotify, Rhapsody, and rdio it must:
If this just comes out for Xbox and Winphones it may be very good, but it will remain a niche product.
Follow the link for initial details from Digital Trends.

Yet another streaming music service vying for your money. Follow the title link for more details. This one seems to be emphasizing "simplicity", which always makes me a bit nervous. (It usually translates to "fewer features to confuse you", which means a less capable service.)
On the other hand, it has a 3-month trial for .99 cents a month, so may be worth a shot.
UPDATE: When I went to check the rara.com site it said "coming soon". I'm not sure if that means it will launch later today, or if the US is not one of those countries it's launching in. I'll update again once I figure that out.
UPDATE 2: The site is up and available now. And, the .99 per month is streaming only, the special deal is $1.99 per month for the first 3 months if you want mobile access. Worth checking out at least: http://www.rara.com

The title pretty much says it all. Click the link to view the original article on The Verge for additional info.

Fans of electronica who also use Spotify or rdio will have an expanded selection of music because of this. Good news!

Users of Boxee's service who are also subscribers to Mog can now play music via Mog through Boxee. Follow the headline link for details.

One label's not-so-positive reaction to Spotify and how it thinks it affects their artists.
Although this article doesn't mention it, these artists' work still appears on Rhapsody, Mog, Rdio, and Napster. Does this mean these services pay the artists better, or is the label merely trying to get more money out of Spotify?
12 notes &
According to this article Spotify is doing quite well in the US so far. Unverified sources say that it has over 1.4 million users, but the especially interesting (and very important!) statistic is that they already have over 175,000 paying subscribers in the US.
That's critical, because for a subscription model like theirs to succeed, a significant number of users have to convert to paying subscribers. This means that those enjoying the free level of service will continue to be able to do so, and those who are paying customers can hope that the money coming in will encourage whatever holdouts there are to start making their music available via Spotify and other services too.
Plus, a high number of subscribers will definitely make Apple sit up and take notice, and that will make for interesting times!
25 notes &
Back when I started this blog, one of my first posts was an explanation of why I think using music subscription services is a good idea. With the recent huge amount of publicity given to Spotify's launch, I'm seeing lots of the old canards surfacing when people discuss it ("I'd rather own than rent", "Why pay when I can use Pandora/LastFM/etc.", and others).
I thought it would be a good time to link to this initial post. Even though the "landscape" has changed a bit, especially with Spotify's generous free level of service, most of my points are still relevant, so I thought I'd resurface it again.
20 notes &
Very exciting news! I will of course be signing up as soon as I can to give you a comparison to existing services as soon as possible. (For the $10 version)
It'll be part or all "invite only" so with any luck if I need an invite some kindly person will offer one quickly.
Interesting note: the article still mentions the 13 million track number, which if true would put them at about the same level, if not slightly better, than Napster, Rhapsody, and Mog. However I've also read they hadn't formalized their Warner Music deal yet, so if that's true I don't see how the 13 million number could be right, at least for the U.S. launch.
One of the first things I plan to do is a comparison of availability between Spotify and the other services, as for me that will be critical to its chances as a viable alternative. Even if it has some technical advantages or a slick UI, if their library size is lagging it would be tough to overcome.
But, this is all speculation. With any luck we'll all get the chance to check it out tomorrow or soon thereafter.
Update: According to this New York Times article they have signed a deal with Warner, so that hurdle has been overcome. All very last minute! Also according to that article only the free version will be invite-only, and the $5 or $10 monthly subscription plans will be open to everyone immediately. (Hmmm, looks like I should have just linked to the NYT article instead.)

Source: LA Times - L.A.'s mayoral election is still nearly two years away, but the field of candidates already is taking shape. And the race is certain to present voters with starkly different choices about who should run Los Angeles next. More contenders undoubtedly will find themselves drawn to the opportunity, but here are the early candidates to watch. Read on at LA Times

The steps toward a better future will surface as we become hungry for them.

Source: Wikipedia - Tehrangeles is a portmanteau deriving from the combination of Tehran, the capital of Iran, and Los Angeles.
It is used when referring to the large number (estimates range from 500,000 to 600,000) of former Iranian nationals and their descendants residing in the Los Angeles metropolitan area; it is the largest such population outside of Iran. In common usage, it usually refers to the proportionally larger Persian-American subset of Iranian immigrants, many of whom are second generation citizens. This area is now officially recognized by the City of Los Angeles as "Persian Square". Thanks to the many efforts of residents, business owners and Councilman Paul Koretz's office.
The Persian community in the L.A. area originally centered in the Westwood neighborhood of west Los Angeles, particularly Westwood Boulevard between Pico Boulevard and the UCLA campus, often referred to as Little Persia or Persian Hills/Persian Square. It is between Beverly Hills and West Los Angeles. Immigration to the area increased several-fold due to the events surrounding the 1979 Iranian Revolution. Westwood Boulevard became known for its many Persian shops and restaurants; and the Persian expatriate community of Los Angeles entered all forms of media including magazines, newspapers, radio and television stations.
As the population grew, many Iranians have moved all over Los Angeles, with other large neighborhoods forming in the Los Angeles neighborhoods of Woodland Hills and Encino in the San Fernando Valley and Beverly Hills, California ; the city of Irvine as well throughout Orange County and Persians also made their homes in San Diego and the Palm Springs area (Coachella Valley). The Persian population of Beverly Hills may be as high as 40% of the total population. The vice mayor of Beverly Hills, Jim Delshad, is Iranian-born.

SFAL Team and Mr. Martin Parr
Today SFAL proudly brought to life its first international event.
And the debut was in really big style: in partnership with Latin Stock, Magnum's representative in Brazil, SFAL organized a workshop with the legendary British photographer Martin Parr. Named "One Day With Martin Parr", the workshop received 10 amateur photographers. Their work was reviewed and commented on by Parr. And they also had the opportunity to go deep inside Parr's photography, learning the details about his classic and new projects.
We really hope this was just the first of many exciting events that SFAL Team is planning for the next year. Stay tuned and keep shooting.

BOSTON (MyFoxBoston.com) -- Transit police arrested a 34-year-old Roslindale man who is accused of attacking and robbing a woman inside the Haymarket MBTA station.Raymond Castillo was arrested Wednesday night on charges of armed robbery and assault and battery. Castillo's arrest comes just over a week after police released surveillance video and photos of a suspect who robbed a woman inside the T station on Jan. 6.Investigators say the victim was walking through the underpass from the Green Line to the Orange Line at about 11 p.m. when a man, allegedly Castillo, approached her and said he was armed with a gun. The suspect can be seen on surveillance video throwing her against a wall and the ground before fleeing the station.Castillo was expected to be arraigned Thursday.

Unseen Academicals
In this installment of the chaos that is Discworld--and by the way, you can pretty much jump in anywhere--the wizards of Unseen University find out that in order to maintain an extremely important bequest, which finances their meals and elaborate between-meal snacks, they have to field a football (that is, soccer to us Americans) team. Since the wizards' previous exercise mainly involved running to wherever the food was to be served, this challenge of course presents a problem. Combine this plot with a touching love story and a couple of other subplots, including one where self-knowledge gained leads to a real transformation, along with Pratchett's sharp sense of humor and ear for the absurd, and you have a winner. I've read several of the Discworld series, and in my opinion this is one of the more successful stories. $14.95 on Kindle.

The knock on the doorPosted by Lawrence Dillon in Uncategorized
Waking up in a midtown hotel and ordering room service because I can't stumble out of a door in the morning without a hearty breakfast. Today we record my fourth quartet. Daedalus has performed the piece three times — Washington, Winston-Salem, Philadelphia – I've made a few editorial adjustments – including the elimination of 12 measures – and now we're ready to sit in a studio all day and into the night if necessary to see if Judy Sherman can make this thing stick to an astonishingly long series of digits.
Speaking of cuts. Tomorrow I'll have my first rehearsal of my fifth quartet with Emerson. Saturday I looked at the piece for the first time since September, and decided one passage in the last movement had to go. I cut two minutes, wrote a five-bar transition, and emailed PDFs of the changes to the quartet. Eugene Drucker emailed back asking if I was sure I wanted to make the cut because he had found the passage persuasive, which left me second-guessing myself. Or I guess third-guessing, at this point.
So somehow between now and tomorrow morning — during today's recording session? — I'm going to have to make an executive decision. It would be much easier to not be neurotic, but oh well. Better plan on ordering room service again tomorrow.
Here's the issue. The passage in question is fine as far as it goes, but it's very different from the rest of the piece. In the context of the 30-minute composition, that will make it a focal point of sorts for the listener. That's a good thing, in some cases, but in this case I'm afraid that perceiving this passage as a focal point will throw the rest of the piece out of kilter. And yet, as Eugene has pointed out, the passage in question is pretty stimulating, so it's a shame to let it go.
As a friend of mine used to say, these kinds of edits are like cutting off fingers.
Tomorrow afternoon, I fly back to NC for dress rehearsals of Genealogie, The Chamber Version. The orchestral version won't be premiered until next fall, so this is a bit of a sneak preview. Ransom Wilson will conduct the nu ensemble, with actor Steven LaCosse, soprano Elizabeth Rose, mezzo Janine Hawley and tenor Glenn Siebert.
Genealogie weaves texts from Robert and Clara Schumann's Marriage Diary with Eugenie Schumann's Memoirs and a 1921 New York Times article by critic Richard Aldrich about the Schumann children. The tone of the music reflects the character of the main protagonist, Robert and Clara's youngest daughter Eugenie, with whom I was really taken. Though a German woman living at the height of Expressionism, she tells the hard story of her family without a trace of self-pity.
The music for Genealogie has a lot of chug-chug minimalism, which I don't think I've used before – or at least I don't recall a piece of mine that has it – which helps distance the narrative from a woe-is-me tone. Over the chug-chug, the melodic lines have a Schumannesque (Robert, that is) lyricism. Metrically, I've created an odd mix, what I imagine Schumann might have done with the Cubist-influenced meters of the early 20th century (Eugenie's Memoirs were composed around the same time as the Times article – 1920-24).
The entire piece – about sixteen minutes long — uses a single harmony – a minor-seventh chord, which is a sound I experience as the height of self-effacing mildness – in hundreds of permutations.
And here is my breakfast. Later.

My late friend Marie Rudisill was best known as The Fruitcake Lady, writer Truman Capote's wise-cracking, straight-shooting aunt who handed out pithy, no-nonsense advice on The Tonight Show. It was a larger-than-life persona that overshadowed another side to this lovely woman, a side that she would have actually preferred that we remember—that of an accomplished cook, cookbook author, and tireless champion of real Southern cooking.
One of the things she regularly railed against was any cookbook purporting to be Southern that featured a recipe for "Boston Baked Beans." How, Marie would grumble, could anybody call a book Southern when it was full of Yankee recipes like that?
What she didn't acknowledge was that Boston's famous beans were a true American classic, popular all over the country from Massachusetts to California—even down here in the South where "Yankee" is not a compliment. Slow-baked beans were, and still are, an economical and relatively carefree way to satisfy any hearty appetites that are honed by cold weather and hard work.
Each region has added touches of its own to baked beans. Down South, our version is enriched with tomato sauce and bacon. Long a part of our winter table, it's also a popular side dish from roadside barbecue joints to church covered dish suppers all year round.
Most every cook adds a signature touch: a healthy dose of house-made barbecue sauce, a dash of hot sauce, chili powder, or garlic—sometimes even a splash of bourbon. Many cooks resort to canned beans, but the trouble with that shortcut is that canned beans disintegrate in slow-baking, so the baking time has to be considerably shortened and the seasonings must be ramped up to make up for the deep infusion of flavor that long, slow baking imparts.
Old Fashioned Baked Beans, Southern Style
This recipe dates back at least a century, but there is no need to leave it cast in historical stone. Feel free to add your own special touches and seasonings, making your own tradition.
Makes about 3 quarts, serving 12-to-14
2 pounds (4 cups) pea (white navy) beans, or red kidney, pintos, Great Northern, or a mixed bean assortment
2 large, or 3 medium onions, 1 trimmed, quartered and peeled, 2 trimmed, split, lengthwise, peeled, and chopped
1-2 cloves garlic, minced
½ cup unsulphured molasses
½ cup dark brown sugar
1½ cups of tomato sauce or catsup
1 teaspoon dry mustard, or more, to taste
1-2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
½ pound thick sliced bacon
Sort through the beans, discarding any that are discolored or damaged, and rinse them well. Put them in a large, stainless or enameled pot. Add a heavy sprinkle of salt to the beans and cover them by at least 2 inches with cold water. Put this over medium heat and bring the beans slowly to the boiling point. Turn off the heat and let them soak until doubled in bulk, about an hour.
If the water is no longer covering the beans, add enough to cover them by an inch and turn on the heat to medium. Add the quartered onion. Bring it slowly back to a boil, reduce the heat to a steady simmer, and cook until tender, about 1 hour, replenishing the liquid with simmering water if necessary (do not add cold or hot tap water). When almost tender, add a tablespoon of salt and simmer at least 10 minutes longer, or until completely tender. The old cooks would take up a small spoonful of beans and blow on them: when the skin blistered, they were ready. Remove and discard onion.
Position a rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 250 degrees F or prepare a 4-quart slow cooker.
Mix together the garlic, molasses, brown sugar, tomato sauce or catsup, mustard and Worcestershire in a small mixing bowl. When the beans are tender, drain them, reserving the cooking liquid, and mix them with the onions in a bean pot, covered casserole, or the crock of the slow cooker. Stir in the seasoning mixture and, if the bacon is not very salty, a pinch of salt. Add enough of the cooking liquid to fully cover them.
Cut the bacon in half crosswise. Press a couple of strips into the beans and then completely cover the top with the remainder.
Cover and bake slowly at least 5 hours (some cook them overnight, for as long as 8 to 10 hours), adding reserved cooking liquid if the beans get too dry, or cook 1 hour on high in the slow cooker, reduce to low, and cook on low for 8 to 10 hours. For a crusty, browned top, uncover, and bake an hour longer or transfer from the slow cooker to a bake and serve casserole and bake at 350 for half an hour.

Hi Paula, I followed this recipe to a T, and it is absolutely the BEST bean recipe I've ever tasted. Finally I found one that has that sweet and smokey flavor plus lots of bacon. I'm feeding a group of family and friends on Boxing Day and this is definitely going to be on the menu. Hope you have a wonderful Christmas.

The Royal Observatory, Greenwich in London played a major role in the history of astronomy and navigation, and is best known as the location of the prime meridian. It is situated on a hill in Greenwich Park, overlooking the River Thames.
The observatory was commissioned in 1675 by King Charles II, with the foundation stone being laid on 10 August. At this time the king also created the position of Astronomer Royal (initially filled by John Flamsteed), to serve as the director of the observatory and to "apply himself with the most exact care and diligence to the rectifying of the tables of the motions of the heavens, and the places of the fixed stars, so as to find out the so much desired longitude of places for the perfecting of the art of navigation." The building was completed in the summer of 1676. The building was often given the title "Flamsteed House".
The scientific work of the observatory was relocated elsewhere in stages in the first half of the 20th century, and the Greenwich site is now maintained as a tourist attraction.
Sometimes I just want to cry over the fact I've been here, I've stood on the Prime Meridian, and it was awesome.

Just across the street from Arizona State University is another school, this one is a bit different.It's a school where you can learn to be a bartender or a casino card dealer.The school is popular with many flocking to get a new start.From the outside, it looks like any other bar. Every alcohol you could ever think of and stools filled with thirsty patrons."Tell me something about brandy? What is it's closest relative" asked "Mike the Bartender".This bartender is not serving drinks; the bottles are filled with colored water; the patrons are students at the school.Welcome to ABC Bartending and Casino Card Dealer School in Tempe."People come here that want a job change," said school owner, Cosmo Raymond."The good thing about becoming a dealer or a bartender is when you go to work and leave work, you leave work, there's no taking work home with you," said Raymond.The benefits go beyond that for many students."I'm not 21 going for my first job; I've had a career, I have two little kids at home. This is something I've wanted to do because it's fun, something extracurricular to do, it's a blast," said Rachel Smallwood.Smallwood just finished classes a few weeks ago and is already finding part-time jobs bartending around the valley."You learn so much, you learn over 100 different drinks, you learn etiquette, bar etiquette.Just across the hall is another class for those wanting to be card dealers in casinos."I was in the teleservice's industry for 20 plus years and got laid off at the end of October. I just felt like something new, I've always wanted to do this playing, but I had a job and I'm a loyal kind of employee," said Jim Cannata.Cannata said getting laid off helped him realize his dreams."Not a lot of people would say "Oh my dream is to be a blackjack dealer" but to each his own, right? It has been sort of my dream," he said.With a number of Casinos in and around the valley many dealers are able to find work. "What I was making before is significantly less than what I'm making now, but in this industry I feel like, in two to three years, I can meet and surpass what I was making, but you have to start out somewhere," said Cannata.For many the classes help them get a job that makes a quick buck."Nothing makes us feel better than having somebody come to us and say I got a job," said Raymond.

Has anyone got an answer from Autodesk as to compatibility of Windows 7 and Autosketch 10?
In case it is of use or interest, I run AS9 on Win 7 with no problems.
I am using AutoSketch 10 with Windows 7 Pro 64-bit OS and having no compatibility issues. I am a new user with AS10, so did not experience any transition issues.
I am about to purchase a new computer. What's the latest on AutoSketch 9 (or 10) running on Windows 7, either 32 or 64 bit?
I have been using AutoSketch 10 for about 4 months on a Windows 7 Pro 64-bit machine with no problems. My computer was an initial install of AS10, not an upgrade. I am a new user with AS10.
I am running Autosketch 10 on Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit system. I just purchased it and downloaded it recently but all I've tried seems to work well.
I've been an Autosketch user for many years but Windows 7 is the first time the old one wouldn't install. I bit the bullet and bought 10. So far so good.
I couldn't install AS10 on my Win7 64-bit desktop. No problem on my Win7 32-bit notebook.
I tried from download, and from disk, regular and safe mode...nothing worked.
AS sales told me AS10 won't install on Win7 64 bit.
I gave up and got ACAD/LT. Student edition cost less than AS but I need to learn so much again, and AS drawings won't import directly. I have to export to dxf or dwg and then import.
Congrats to you who had better luck!

The holiday season is over and now we're all feeling a little guilty about how much we indulged during the holiday party circuit, especially since your pants are fitting a little more snuggly than they used to. So now you've made one of the most common New Year's resolutions out there – you're going to be healthy, get fit, lose the weight and maybe even run a marathon just to prove that this really is the year you're going to follow through and make your weight loss goal. Well if you're a stranger to eating right and regular exercise this can be an overwhelming resolution to keep, so we're here to help you stay on the wagon all year long. That's right, all year long – not all month long, not three months long, not six months long, ALL YEAR LONG. Remember, you want to lose the weight forever, not just send it on vacation for a couple of weeks.
For now think baby steps instead of giant leaps. Make your weight loss decisions realistic so that they fit with your regular routine. You can try to lose five pounds in a week but if you don't have the hours (that's right – multiple hours) to spend in an aerobic frenzy you'll be setting yourself up for failure. You'll end up feeling bad about not finishing what you set out to accomplish and end up quitting (again). For now make really, really simple changes that are easy to stick to. Since we're all creatures of habit and routine, make small adjustment to yours in the weight loss direction. Add an alert in your schedule reminding you to drink a glass of water. If you love soft drinks switch to a low calorie or sugar free drink like an iced herbal tea, take a supplement that contains Glucomannan to help with weight loss and don't feel bad about treating yourself once in awhile. We all love treats!
If it helps, think of the old story about the tortoise and hare. Slow and steady wins the weight loss race. Instead of saying "I am going to lose 20lbs by July" make your decision to be healthier overall. Instead say, "I'd like to look and feel fabulous by Christmas".
The best thing to do if you're serious about losing weight is to know where you're starting from and what you're starting with. Get all the info, how much do you weigh? What are your measurements? What is a healthy, realistic weight for your body type and age? How many calories should I be eating a day? How often and for how long should I be exercising on a weekly basis? The next time you have a doctor's appointment ask these questions and don't be afraid of the answers. Sometimes a little shock therapy can be just thing to get you going.

The White Queen, which debuts Saturday on Starz, was co-produced with the BBC and began airing in Great Britain in June. Curious about its reception there, and even more curious about whether any British critic might have written something I could steal, I looked up the review in the London newspaper The Independent. Here's a quote:
"I'm sure it will give innocent pleasure to many, but a lot of cod had to sacrifice their wallops to make it possible."
To which I can only quote Whoopi Goldberg in Jumpin' Jack Flash: "Mick, Mick, Mick. Speak English!"
There being no apparent alternative to my actually writing the review, I must confess that I don't understand the continuing American fascination with the foibles of European royalty, both in real life (Look! Look! Wills' and Kate's baby just blinked!) and on television.
The latter manifests itself in a genre that might be called Bedding & Beheading, in which luscious costumes and severed limbs fly in all directions as various pretty heirheads boink and eviscerate one another, not necessarily in that order. The Tudors, The Borgias, even — if you're willing to include a little dragon sex — Game of Thrones, TV is rife with the stuff.
Within that category, you could do worse than The White Queen, based on the bestselling series of bodice-ripping historical novels by Philippa Gregory. The show stars near the beginning of the War of the Roses, a series of civil wars fought between rival English dynasties during the 15th century. For 30 years, the royal houses of York (heraldic symbol: the white rose) and Lancaster (heraldic symbol: the red rose) spilled blood and despoiled maidens at a pace that makes the Ewings of Dallas look like Trappist monks.
The good guys in The White Queen, as you might deduce from the title, are the Yorks. And as you might further deduce, they aren't guys at all. The White Queen is, in its own addled way, a feminist fable. ("Men go to battle, women wage war" is the show's promotional tagline.) All the heavy lifting is done by the female characters.
At the center of all the machinations is Elizabeth Woodville, a plucky commoner who wins the heart of the Yorkie King Edward IV by threatening to cut her own throat before he can rape her. (Talking about playing hard to get.) He promptly marries her, which stirs up all manner of evil plotting by Anne Neville, the daughter of the king's evil advisor, and Margaret Beaufort, the really evil wife of the Lancaster king.
Does it sound like everybody is ganging up on poor Elizabeth and her magnificent and frequently exposed bosom? Don't worry. I may have forgotten to mention her mom, Jacquetta, is a witch, by which I do not mean a rhyming word that begins with B, but an actual witch who can turn people into frogs and stuff.
She's played, in a wily performance that recalls the work of Helen Mirren, by Janet McTeer, whose roles in imported PBS costume dramas as well as a brief run as a villainess on DirecTV's Damages make her the only member of the cast familiar to American audiences.
Not that there's anything wrong with the work of her younger colleagues (Rebecca Ferguson, Faye Marsay and Amanda Hale). Each of them stabs backs and pops bodice buttons with the necessary élan while keeping a straight face at The White Queen's putative moral, which is that arranged marriages are corrupt and evil, while those born of attempted rape, self-mutilation and suicide are sacred and empowering. I wonder what Kate and Wills think.

Matthew Siderhurst, assistant professor of chemistry at EMU
How non-native insects can be introduced into habitats and sometimes become serious pests is the subject of the next Suter Science Center seminar at EMU.
Matthew Siderhurst, an assistant professor of chemistry at EMU, will speak on the topic, "The Smells of Invasion: Chemical Ecology of Invasive Insects in Hawaii," 4 p.m. Monday, Nov. 12 in room 104 of the Suter Science Center.
Dr. Siderhurst, who joined the EMU faculty in 2006, has done major study on the ecosystems of Hawaii and the impact of non-native insects on the people and agricultural areas there.
He will describe his research and efforts to develop tools for invasion prevention and control strategies, improve early detection of new invaders and track established invaders.
Damage in Billions
"Damage, losses and control costs from non-native insects are estimated at $20 billion annually, along with the displacement and destruction of native species," Siderhurst said, noting that "invasive species are the single greatest threat to Hawaii's economy and natural environment and to the health and lifestyle of the people there."
Refreshments will be served 15 minutes prior to the presentation. Admission to the program is free.
For more information, contact Dr. Roman J. Miller, 540-432-4412; e-mail email@example.com.

Most businesses—whether organically or by design—expand to multiple workgroups and branch offices as the organization grows and evolves. It's a challenge for these different groups and offices to access and share data, and choosing the right storage solution without adversely impacting the entire company can be a daunting and confusing decision.
Traditionally, the task of managing data across workgroups and remote offices has been the domain of large corporations. However, companies of all sizes benefit from utilizing workgroups focused on common business goals. And forward-thinking companies are keen to take advantage of the opportunities provided by branches located closer to bedroom communities and pools of talented people.
The explosion of data, the dramatic rise in file sizes, and the need to access data from anywhere at any time via mobile devices create five unique trends for managing data storage for workgroups and branch offices.

What medications can be used to treat certain causes of abdominal pain?
Comment on this Read 1 Comment
Medications that are used to treat the underlying cause(s) of abdominal pain are the medications of choice. For example, medications are not needed to treat simple viral gastroenteritis, while surgery and/or chemotherapy may be the best approach to treat certain cancers in the abdomen. Other causes may require antispasmodics, antimicrobials, H2 blockers, or even nitrates or morphine. The diagnosed cause usually narrows the choice of medications. A few causes can only be treated by surgery (for example appendicitis, hernia [incarcerated], and certain abdominal injuries), although some medications may be used (for example, morphine) while the person is awaiting surgery.
What lifestyle choices can I make to prevent abdominal pain?
Lifestyle changes really depend on the cause of the abdominal pain.

What? on 11.13.2009
How is this a little boys' dick oO He has like 19 cm (7,5″ for people using antic measurement) hard — which is WAY more than the American average AFAIK -_-
Rob on 11.18.2009
Studying the photo closely…he appears…just to have been studded all over. The image is quite 'artistic' really, if one considers Jackson Pollock mixed with bloody-painterly Renaissance renditions of St. Sebastian of old, punctured with arrows who features in numerous painting and sculpture through out the ages? Looks so sad, doesn't he, with all the trials and tribulations 'competitive youth culture' demands must be experienced? I'm confident he will grow out of it soon! (I wonder what his mother things?)
Josh on 11.18.2009
Rob, I'm pretty sure that he won't "grow out of it", he might have just found the style that suits him. And I'm absolutely sure that he doesn't give a shit about what his mother thinks ;)

NEW YORK Four months after increasing his stake in Commercial Metals Co. (CMC), investor Carl Icahn made a formal move to acquire the entire company Monday.
Icahn has offered $15 per share for CMC, giving the company an enterprise value of some $2.8 billion, according to analyst Brian Yu at Citi Investment Research & Analysis. The share price represents a 31-percent premium over the stocks closing price of $11.45 each on Nov. 25. The companys shares closed at $14.17 apiece Monday on the New York Stock Exchange.
If successful, Icahn intends to merge his wholly owned PSC Metals Inc. with the steelmaker and scrap processor, selling off the latters noncore assets. Those could include all of CMCs international ventures.

Officials with the Tulsa Zoo were on hand Wednesday morning to preview a newly renovated complex featuring naked mole rats and albino alligators.
On Saturday, the former Robert J. LaFortune North American Living Museum will be known as the Robert J. LaFortune WildLIFE Trek.
"We are thrilled to reopen this four building complex featuring a variety of animals from grizzly bears to naked mole rats to albino alligators," said Terrie Correll, CEO of Tulsa Zoo Management, Inc. "This newly renovated complex will focus on animals from around the world and their unique adaptations to life in the cold, desert, forest and water."
According to a release from the zoo, the Robert J. LaFortune WildLIFE Trek features an interactive keeper chat area and training wall at the grizzly bear exhibit as well as a naturalistic habitat featuring a two story waterfall and wading pond for the bears.
Guests will find new features such as these throughout the complex, but they will also find many old favorites, such as the zoo's original cave exhibit! With many exciting features, old and new, this complex will thrill all who decide to take a trek through the wild this spring!

Collaboration between CBD and the Ramsar Convention on wetlands -- Ramsar report to CBD SBSTTA10
CBD SBSTTA10, Bangkok, Thailand, 7-11 February 2005
Collaboration between CBD and the Ramsar Convention on wetlands: progress in the development of ecological assessments and indicators
Report to SBSTTA10 by
Spyros Kouvelis (MedWet Co-ordinator, Ramsar Secretariat)
Mr Chairman,
Photo: Earth Negotiations Bulletin
Thank you for the opportunity to report on the continuing and enhanced collaboration between our Conventions, here concerning particularly our common interest in targets and indicators. This forms part of our on-going efforts to simplify and harmonise the joint implementation mechanisms of the CBD and Ramsar Convention for wetlands, in line with Ramsar's role under CBD Decision III/21 as a lead implementation partner for wetlands (both inland waters and coastal and nearshore marine systems), the 3rd CBD/Ramsar Joint Work Plan, and the implementation of the revised CBD programme of work on the biological diversity of inland waters adopted by CBD COP7 in 2004 - a programme which was developed jointly between Ramsar and CBD.
In particular I will address the joint development of targets and indicators for assessing the global 2010 biodiversity target, and the preparation of a range of inventory, assessment and monitoring guidance in support of this. In doing so, I will provide you with a topical update on the work of Ramsar's Scientific and Technical Review Panel (STRP), which met in its 12th session in Switzerland last week, and during which made significant progress in its preparation of a major range of updated and new guidance for consideration by Ramsar Contracting Parties at the Convention's ninth meeting of the Conference of the Parties to be held in Uganda in November this year.
In all, it is a pleasure to report significant further progress in establishing practical mechanisms for better harmonising the implementation and reporting between our two Conventions, a process which we believe continues to lead the way in the much requested and expected harmonisation between multilateral environmental agreements (MEAs).
Indicators. Members of the STRP and Ramsar Secretariat have contributed to the development of the proposed CBD indicators for assessing achievement of the 2010 biodiversity target, through participation in the Montreal expert group meeting which prepared the recommendations you are considering here.
In a related exercise, Ramsar Parties have requested the STRP develop a set of indicators for "assessing the effectiveness of the implementation of the Convention". The STRP has focused on identifying a set of ecological "outcome-oriented" indicators designed to complement the largely "process-oriented" indicators embodied in National Reports from Parties, and last week agreed a set of seven indicators for its first tranche for which it is now preparing fact-sheets for their application, and a further four indicators for possible future development.
This first tranche for Ramsar covers:
- Overall conservation status of wetlands (inland, coastal and nearshore marine);
- Status of the ecological character of Ramsar sites;
- A water-related indicator - with elements focusing in the first instance on water quality, environmental flows and river fragmentation;
- Frequency of threats affecting Ramsar sites;
- Wetland sites with successfully implemented conservation or wise use management plans;
- Population trends of wetland taxa - initially focusing on waterbirds; and
- Changes in status of globally threatened wetland taxa - focusing initially on amphibians and waterbirds.
Data for some of these indicators will be collected at site level and then aggregated, but for others will be handled and presented at the river basin, biogeographic region or global scales. The Panel has also recognised the value of starting with qualitative, questionnaire-based methods for information acquisition, especially where quantitative data is lacking at present. The STRP has also recognised that there is still a serious lack of quantitative data at a global scale on the distribution, status and trends of many wetland types, both inland and coastal.
There are clearly very close links between our two sets of indicators, and the Ramsar fact-sheets will include identification of the contribution of these indicators to the 2010 target assessment and their relationship with the CBD indicators. But the Ramsar approach goes further than just trying to assess trends against this target, and will also seek to analyse trends in biodiversity status against relevant National Report process indicators so as to assess implementation effectiveness. It is anticipated that for at least some of the Ramsar indicators, a preliminary analysis and assessment will be prepared for Ramsar COP9.
Targets, Ramsar site designations and inland waters programme of work implementation. Through participation in the working group and Ad Hoc Technical Expert Group meetings, the Ramsar Secretariat and STRP members have worked jointly with CBD in the development of the targets for the inland waters and coastal and marine programmes of work, which you are considering here, and which we commend to you.
In doing so, the STRP has realised that the Ramsar Convention is lacking such equivalent targets for its implementation (other than the five broad targets for its Strategic Plan General Objectives). The Panel will be reviewing the outcomes of your target discussions here, with a view to linking your inland waters and coastal/marine targets, where appropriate, to Ramsar implementation processes, notably in relation to the role of Ramsar sites establishing comprehensive protected areas networks.
On a related matter, CBD COP7 Decision VII/4 on the inland waters programme of work invited the Ramsar Secretariat and STRP to review and as appropriate further develop the Ramsar site designation criteria and the guidelines for their implementation, so as to achieve more comprehensive coverage of the components of biodiversity recognised by CBD. I am pleased to report that the STRP's Working Group on these matters, also in response to a related Ramsar COP8 request, is responding to this in two ways.
First, it has recognised that the guidelines for Ramsar's existing Criterion 1 can and should be elaborated so as to cover all types of wetland ecosystem services as described by the Millennium Ecosystem Assessment (MA), and notably that this can include socio-economic and cultural services derived from biodiversity.
Second, the STRP is proposing a new, ninth, quantitiative Criterion covering non-avian wetland-dependent taxa, including inter alia amphibians. It is intended that this will be supported by an assessment of population size data and 1% population thresholds from the IUCN Species Survival Commission and its Specialist Groups, in a manner equivalent to that well-established for waterbirds by Wetlands International's regularly updated global Waterbird Population Estimates products.
Inventory and Assessment. So as to assist Parties in using the burgeoning suite of implementation guidelines, the STRP is preparing several overarching implementation frameworks, which show how, when, and for what purpose to apply the Convention's more specific guidelines. Amongst these, it is preparing an integrated framework for inventory, assessment and monitoring. This will include guidance on several aspects of assessment including the relationships between environmental impact assessment, strategic environmental assessment, risk assessment and vulnerability assessment. Supporting this will be additional guidance on economic valuation and on vulnerability assessment, an issue which has assumed increased significance in this region in the aftermath of the disastrous Indian Ocean tsunami of 26 December last year.
In relation to this, the Ramsar Secretariat has requested Wetlands International and its other International Organisation Partner NGOs to establish a "Ramsar tsunami reference group" so as to provide assessment and management response guidance to the Convention's Parties, particularly concerning the extent to which natural coastal ecosystems (notably mangroves and coral reefs) can and have acted to mitigate the impacts of such natural disasters - and the extent to which conversion of such systems to other land uses increases vulnerability.
Access to reliable rapid assessment methodologies is vital for such assessment and advice. The CBD rapid assessment guidelines for inland waters and coastal and marine ecosystems, developed jointly with the Ramsar Convention and endorsed by CBD COP7, are therefore most timely. The STRP is creating a consolidated version of these guidelines, covering the full range of Ramsar wetlands for COP9 consideration, thus ensuring that consistent advice is provided to both CBD and Ramsar national focal points and administrative authorities.
Water and the wise use of ecosystems. The STRP is also preparing a related framework for addressing the critical relationships for human well-being between water and wetland ecosystems - which is becoming an increasing focus of Convention attention. Supporting this will be additional guidance on groundwater management, environmental flow assessment and allocation, and river basin management. I am also pleased to report to you that the River Basin Initiative (RBI) proposal jointly developed by CBD and Ramsar has now been submitted to UNDP-GEF, and a decision on funding is expected imminently. Implementation of this initiative is designed to support the efforts of our respective Parties and governments to ensure that the vital roles of wetland ecosystems are better recognised and reflected in water resource management practices.
Finally, the STRP has reviewed and is proposing to update definitions of the Convention's fundamental concepts of "Wise Use" and "ecological character", so as to also harmonise Ramsar definitions with the subsequently developed CBD ecosystem approach and sustainable use guidance. The Panel has also recognised that the Millennium Ecosystem Assessment (MA) conceptual framework provides a valuable framework for the delivery of Wise Use, and for showing how and where to apply the Ramsar "toolkit" of Wise Use Handbooks of implementation guidance. This provides one of several examples of how the MA's work has contributed to the work of the Convention. At its meeting last week, the STRP also reviewed and endorsed the MA's Wetland Synthesis Report to the Ramsar Convention.
The key findings of the MA in that report stress the vital role and huge value of wetland ecosystems in supporting human well-being and poverty reduction - yet it also reveals that wherever one looks coastal and inland wetlands (and different wetland dependent taxa) continue to be in rapid and accelerating decline, and at rates faster that those of other terrestrial ecosystems, for example forests. Clearly, all our efforts to achieve the coastal and inland water targets you are considering establishing have never been more critical and urgent - yet much decision-making continues to ignore the implications of these wetland losses.
If we are to halt or, even better, reverse this alarming situation the message from the MA is very clear: we all need to rise to the challenge of shifting urgently to a fully cross-sectoral understanding and delivery of ecosystem values in decision-making. Continuing to focus only on sectoral biodiversity conservation will not achieve this; it needs full engagement of the other key sectors of governance whose business and decisions currently affect the capacity of wetlands to deliver their services - and without which the long-term achievement of the Millennium Development Goals for food and water security and poverty reduction will be jeopardised.
Thank you.

Advanced Research Magnesium Orotate 500 mg. - 50 Tablets
Advanced Research Magnesium Orotate 500 mg. is a quality health care supplement product formulated by Hans A. Nieper, M.D. Orotates are mineral salts of orotic acid used by plants and animals to make DNA and RNA. Hans Nieper, a physician and dabbler in offbeat theories of gravitation, used orotates clinically before 1980 until his death in 1998. He thought that orotate salts, being neutrally charged, pass easily through cell membranes. In effect, orotate ferries the mineral atoms into cells and tissues, producing higher concentrations.
Nieper promoted orotates as treatments for nearly every ailment imaginable and was consequently ignored; most of his medical claims were never rigorously tested. But in certain applications - such as athletic performance - where his ideas have recently received scientific scrutiny, they have been found to work. Nieper may have been on the right track after all.
Magnesium orotate is used by competitive athletes to increase endurance. It is also used to treat symptoms of magnesium deficiency, including diabetes, hypertension, dementia, and osteoporosis, and to treat migraines, asthma, chronic lung disease, heart attacks, arrhythmias, blood vessel stiffness, atherosclerosis, and high blood pressure.
Dr. Hans A Nieper has achieved (during his lifetime) International acclaim in Science, Medicine and Technology. As reported in several International Journals, Dr. Nieper is truly one of the greatest luminaries of this century. In addition to his research, theories and promulgation of vacuum/space field Tachyon physics and technologies (Telsa), he was the President of the International Association of Space Field Energy Scientists.
In Medicine, his discoveries of various "metabolic substances" orotates, aspartates, arginates and AEP compounds, which are necessary in cell metabolism, resulted in great demands for his lectures including the World Health Organization's Cancer Symposium and adoption of various Government Medical Authorities (in Germany) of several of his successful "Non-Toxic" Medical protocols. Dr. Nieper was also the President of the German Oncology Society.
Advanced Research nutritional supplements are the progression of Dr. Nieper's commitment to metabolic therapies in harmony with nature. They painstakingly research each raw ingredient to assure that the highest potency, most assimilable materials are used and that they meet Dr. Nieper's Standard of excellence. All their products are then scientifically formulated and meticulously manufactured.
