Is the education crysis a political or cultural problem?
There is a global problem with the education system. Since education plays such a vital part in human development it invevitably plays a vital part in society.
The development of educational programs may be developed by education commities, but the end result is usualy "ajusted" and "contidioned" by politicians, is this the main obstacle that education faces? or does the Lack of cultural conditions, in the form of a industry oriented society, present itself as a even bigger issue?

Lawrence CoxMay 14 2013: I believe it is political. But I'm not just talking about politicians. I'm talking about power, and the struggle for it.
The game of politics is not only played by politicians! If you don't realize that, you need to go back and study your history better.
There are many players in the game of politics. They include the people who are "in power" right now, and all the others who have been and want it back, and others who haven't been yet and want some. There are also the criminals, who play the game around its edges. They have ALWAYS been there, too, and sometimes they get into "official" positions in government or business.
There are a lot of these players who want workers - preferably slaves - so why should you have a "good" education system that makes everyone more able and self-confident? That's the problem. There is a lot of political pressure to NOT make better schools.

STEVENS POINT, WI (UWSP) - A UW-Stevens Point senior will participate in the Aztec Bowl. Wideout Theo Maglio (Wautoma, WI/Wautoma), fresh off an impressive season in which he recorded a team-best 66 receptions, has been selected to participate in the Aztec Bowl XL, scheduled for Friday in Monterrey, NL Mexico.
Maglio will represent the Team USA All American Eagles as they will take on ONEFA All Stars from the Mexico University system. Forty-two players from 32 NCAA Division II and III colleges and universities comprise the Eagles' roster.
Maglio was named a D3football.com All-West Region team after leading the Wisconsin Intercollegiate Athletic Conference with 105.9 receiving yards per game and ranked third in the league with 66 total receptions. He also ranked fourth in all-purpose yards per game (125.0) and sixth in total scoring touchdowns (8). His best performance of the 2012 campaign was against La Crosse in the home-opener, where he caught eight passes for 201 yards and a score.
The Aztec Bowl is a small college postseason bowl game that has been played intermittently since at least 1950. More information about the Aztec Bowl can be found here.

After being on flash hiatus for the longest time, I finally made something. This is my submission for an animation festival.
Originally titled "The Bridge", "Guardian of the Bridge" is a story about a family of satyrs (or pan) who find themselves curious once they spot a bridge connecting the other side of their valley homeland. The satyrs, two brothers and a sister, each must face the guardian of the bridge, a hungry and nasty troll. This short film is based off of the old tale: Three Billy Goats Gruff.
Rated 3.5 / 5 stars September 1, 2009
I guess
I see what you were going for, but there was nothing stopping the Troll from eating them all. Big hole there.
You probably misunderstood the message of brains over brawn.
The troll was too stupid to see passed the lies of the first two.
He wanted a bigger meal so he went for the second satyr instead of the first. The second was taller but very lean looking thus would have made a poor meal and was desperate to go for something better- what he was told to be the third one.
There's also the message of take what you can when you can, but as I mentioned the troll is too stupid to think this way.
You may want to try and read Billy Goats Gruff sometime. It's a short read and follows similar logic... though the ending is a bit more gruesome.
Rated 5 / 5 stars August 31, 2009
Either I've heard this fable before, or the story was just that good :) I loved it. Probably the only thing I'd add is more music and the male vo needs a better mic, but that's just nit picking. In it's entirety, it was a great piece that I enjoyed. Well drawn, well structured, well animated.
Props to u sir. Props will we can't fill up the stage no more lmao.
Thanks for the review ^_^

Great work
strong timing and some interesting shot selections, my only issue was that the drawing quality dropped at some points. Otherwise brilliant! :D
Thank you. I'll try and watch it when it come to drawing consistency .
Rated 5 / 5 stars August 31, 2009
Beautiful mastery if art and story
that was incredibly well done. The playful beginning, and the cuts of the hill and river view made it all the better than just running through the story. On top of that it looked fabulous. The hill and river scene especially had great detail. I think u got carried away tho when the boy walks across the bridge, it doesnt look right with the rail behind him moving so fast.
The sound wasn't distracting or anything, but the monster crash and the sound effects, like the boy waking up after the crash, could vary a little more in loudness.
I also loved the cute story of each way the troll is fooled and how u thought to show each excuse the three characters made as they say it.
Short summary, u did awesome, make more, we appreciate it! :D
Well since you liked it so much I'll make sure to do better ^_^
I'll try and fix the sound problems within the week. Thanks for the rview. I find them very helpful.

Ham test
The Ham test is done to diagnose paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria (PNH). The test checks whether red blood cells become more fragile when they are placed in mild acid.
Alternative Names
Acid hemolysin test
How the test is performed
Blood is typically drawn from a vein, usually from the inside of the elbow or the back of the hand. The site is cleaned with germ-killing medicine (antiseptic). The health care provider wraps an elastic band around the upper arm to apply pressure to the area and make the vein swell with blood.
Next, the health care provider gently inserts a needle into the vein. The blood collects into an airtight vial or tube attached to the needle. The elastic band is removed from your arm.
Once the blood has been collected, the needle is removed, and the puncture site is covered to stop any bleeding.
In infants or young children, a sharp tool called a lancet may be used to puncture the skin and make it bleed. The blood collects into a small glass tube called a pipette, or onto a slide or test strip. A bandage may be placed over the area if there is any bleeding.
How to prepare for the test
There is no special preparation needed for this test.
How the test will feel
When the needle is inserted to draw blood, some people feel moderate pain, while others feel only a prick or stinging sensation. Afterward, there may be some throbbing.
Why the test is performed
A positive test can confirm the diagnosis of PNH.
The Ham test can also be used to diagnose another rare disorder called congenital dyserythropoietic anemia.
Normal Values
A negative test is normal.
What abnormal results mean
Abnormal results may be due to:
- Paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria
- Congenital dyserythropoietic anemia
What the risks are
There is very little risk involved with having your blood taken. Veins and arteries vary in size from one patient to another and from one side of the body to the other. Taking blood from some people may be more difficult than from others.
Other risks associated with having blood drawn are slight but may include:
- Excessive bleeding
- Fainting or feeling light-headed
- Hematoma (blood accumulating under the skin)
- Infection (a slight risk any time the skin is broken)
Special considerations
The Ham test is increasingly being replaced by a newer test called flow cytometry.

Flower Children
Forty years ago this summer, an army of ungroomed idealists invaded upstate New York for a three-day concert that changed the world. Ang Lee's latest film, Taking Woodstock, pays homage to that moment, and during last night's Gilt Groupe and Quintessentially-sponsored screening, the weather gods seemed to be in on it, providing an amplified bass line of thunder and the kind of heavy rain that makes for a rip-roaring good time in the mud. "Just not inside the theater, I hope," Lee cautioned.
Speaking of: It turns out the film's re-enactments of Woodstock's famous free-for-alls weren't entirely authentic. "It was mud mixed with cooking oil, so that we could slip faster," lead Demetri Martin revealed. Guests happily slid into theme, with Erin Fetherston and some pals spilling out of a colorful VW bus splashed with psychedelic swirls and Claire Danes and cast member Emile Hirsch posing for photographers holding the daisies that were being handed out at the door. And at the after-party at the Bowery Hotel, there were almost enough headbands and flower-girl dresses for a Summer of Love, round two.
Perhaps more than his co-stars, Liev Schreiber was in his element. "My mom and dad were big hippies and I spent time on communes," the actor recalled. "I just remember the smell of soybeans everywhere. People were making all sorts of strange things out of soybeans: food, clothing, paper, everything. I suppose if I'd gone to military school, maybe I'd be pining for something like Woodstock. But I'm certainly pining for what it represents, and I think that's what Ang was really after with the film."

Rum-Spiked Grilled Pineapple with Toasted Coconut

Ottawa, 29 January 2013: The Vice President of Tibetan Youth Congress Dhondup Lhadar testified in front of a panel of 15 members of parliament in the House of Commons in Ottawa, Canada. The prestigious opportunity to testify in front of the Subcommittee on International Human Rights of the Standing Committee on Foreign Affairs and International Development of the House of Commons of the Canadian Parliament had arisen out of a lobbying effort in Ottawa on 10 December 2012 on International Human Rights Day during the visit of the Vice President and General Secretary to Toronto organised by RTYC Toronto. In their invitation they had specified that members would be particularly interested in the issue of self-immolations, including any recommendations we may have for Canadian action that could contribute to reducing or ending the recent wave of self-immolations.
The hearing lasted about an hour and 15 minutes during which time the translated testimony of Dhondup Lhadar was read out followed by an individual testimony of Tsewang Dhondup and the floor opened to Q&A session. Questions revolved around the issue of self-immolation and TYC's position, asks and what it believes the Canadian government should do.
Responding to the first question on why Tibetans are self-immolating VP Dhondup Lhadar said that there are mainly two reasons behind the self-immolations. "One is the absolute rejection by the Tibetan people of the occupation of Tibet by China and secondly to protest against the systematic and malicious attempts to slander our leader His Holiness the Dalai Lama and eradicate Tibetan culture and race and destroy Tibet's environment as a result of this occupation."
In a positive statement on the self-immolations MP David Sweet (Conservative Party of Canada, CPC) stated that, "I just wanted to be clear that the decisions that are made by the immolators are their own and is not because of some pressure that they are receiving from some other outside group. I just wanted to make sure that was on the record and I believe that's the answer we get from the witnesses."
Another important question was on what the government of Canada do to resolve the current situation inside Tibet. Mr. Dhondup Lhadar responded by stating that our foremost appeal to the Canadian government and the Parliament is to pay attention to the testaments of the more than ninety-nine self-immolators in order to understand their real aspirations and investigate the actual situation inside Tibet. To this effect it must make efforts to send independent investigation team inside Tibet as well as international media and within the Canadian Parliament to pass a resolution and make a statement on the current situation inside Tibet and pressure the government of China to make sincere efforts to bring about positive changes for Tibet.
Just before wrapping up, Dhondup Lhadar was once again offered the opportunity to address the panel. In conclusion he said that China's heavy handed response to self-immolations have prompted Tibetans to resort to other ways of sacrificing their lives such as consumption of poison or jumping into rivers. "This clearly substantiates the fact that Tibetans in Tibet today do not even have the right and freedom to choose the way they want to sacrifice their lives for their country through self-immolations. This obstruction to their basic freedom of choice clearly shows the epoch of darkness cast over the universal fundamental human rights and freedom and in order to dispel this darkness Tibetans inside Tibet are urging the leaders and politicians of the free world to take action and this is an appeal I would also like to make on behalf of the six million Tibetans.
MP Wayne Marston from New Democratic Party (NDP) and the Vice-Chair of the Subcommittee concluded the hearing by expressing that gratitude for bringing before the committee the testimonies and said that this committee is "Ceased with concern for what is happening inside Tibet and I want to assure you that members present from all parties are very concerned and troubled by what we hear. And your testimony is an important part of our study looking into this. If you have anything to add that you haven't given us today be sure to send it to the clerk."
The meeting was joined by members of RTYC Toronto and RTYCNY/NJ.
This is the first time a Tibetan Youth Congress Central Executive member has been accorded the opportunity to testify in the Canadian House of Commons. Proceedings of the hearing can be viewed by clicking this link

Please confirm that your email address is correct, so you can successfully receive this alert.
To the Editor: Caution is needed when interpreting the results of the study by Dr. Volavka et al. The article and the accompanying editorial (1) acknowledged that the cohort effect cannot be ruled out, the dose of risperidone was too high, and 18% of the funding was obtained from Eli Lilly and Company. The olanzapine arm of the study was included 15 months after the study had started; there was no quetiapine arm, although both drugs became available around the same time. Use of haloperidol in comparison with either loxapine or molindone as a comparator first-generation antipsychotic drug is questionable. Both offer certain advantages over other first-generation antipsychotics.
The authors' concept of suboptimal response is less rigorous than the more widely accepted criteria of Kane et al. for treatment resistance (2). The score on the Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale required for study entry was >60. These factors may have contributed to entry of treatment-responsive patients and those with milder illness.
High doses for haloperidol (mean=25.7 mg/day, SD=5.7; approximately 1720 chlorpromazine-equivalent units) during the second phase of variable dosing cannot be justified. Low doses (mean=3.4 mg/day, SD=2.3) of haloperidol are efficacious in patients with acute schizophrenia; higher doses cause a significant increase in extrapyramidal side effects (3). Positron emission tomography experiments performed by Farde et al. (4) suggested that there is sufficient dopamine D2 receptor occupancy with doses of haloperidol as low as 4–6 mg/day. High doses of haloperidol in treatment-resistant patients with schizophrenia do not provide any advantage based on D2 receptor occupancy (5).
The advantages of atypical antipsychotics in terms of efficacy and dropouts disappear when doses below 12 mg/day of haloperidol are used (6). The optimal dose for risperidone is 4 mg/day, and there is a therapeutic window: poor response results at higher doses (Love et al., 1999; Williams, 2001). No incremental clinical improvement in chronic psychosis is seen at doses above 375 mg/day in chlorpromazine-equivalent doses, although a significant increase in adverse reactions is observed (7).
The Clinical Antipsychotic Trials of Intervention Effectiveness study, sponsored by the National Institute of Mental Health, may offer some more insight; however, this study is also limited by including only one comparator from the first-generation drug category. No study on the comparative effectiveness of first-generation versus newer antipsychotics can be definitive without using loxapine or molindone in treatment arms.

This weekend, my BFF Olive and I ganged up on this lippy lab puppy. He thought he was the boss, but he was so wrong. We told him all about how wrong he was … And then chased him a little extra for good measure. Frenchie power!
Please. Don't. Stop. The belly scratches. Both of you. This is like …
Like, I'm not really sure what heaven might be like? I imagine kibble on every surface. Floors made of peanut butter filled bones. Floors you can pee on if you want and still be a good boy. Squeaky toys of every shape a d size. Bright patches of sunshine for napping in. And … This!
Double hand upright belly scratches. Heaven.
Sometimes I have the energies and hafta beat up my bed. Today was one of those days.
Sorry I'm not sorry!
You want to give me your bagel. You 100% want to give me your bagel. Can you feel yourself wanting to bagel me? Oh yes … That is want you want. Trust …
… Crap … I blinked. You're prolly not hypnotized. Dang it.
Bagel? Please?
Feeling a case of the glamor drams coming on. They make me stare meaningfully into the distance and drop some heavy sighs.
The beach is basically my favorite thing ever. Even though water is scary. I like strutting and rolling in sand. I like finding crunchy things in the sand — like crabbies and seaweeds and sometimes even more exciting things! — and pouncing on little kiddies who are sitting in the sand. They're so deliciously pounce-able!
I love all of those things so much that I don't even mind when sometimes I get sand in my eyes. No biggie.
Nevermind my slightly dirty face. Nevermind my droopy jowls. This is about the message I'm sending … straight to your heart. In wink form.
No words necessary down here. I've said everything that needs saying. But you just go on ahead and finish that whoooole cookie and don't even feel like a jerkface about it. Hmph.
Yesterday was the best day of my life, guys!
Let me tell you what happened.
Lady Person was running around and doing all sorts of things and making dinner, and she fed me. I snarfed that kibble up so fast, because everybody knows that's how you eat kibble. And then, a little while later, Dude Person was like, "Hey, did you feed Fergus?" And — wait for it — Lady Person said, "No, can you feed him?"
Up until the moment the kibble hit the bowl, I was waiting for her to remember that I'd already had first dinner. To stop Dude Person from serving up my second dinner. But she didn't. And I snarfed that kibble up just as fast as I snarfed up the first dinner — because … you know why!
Like I said — best day of my life!! I'm basically walking on sunshine. SUNSHINE guys!

A 12-year-old girl and an 8-year-old boy were stabbed multiple times in the attack.
The protestor who is accused of making a terrorist threat against the Creek casino in Wetumpka remains in jail after being arrested Friday.
Wayland Gray was among approximately one dozen protestors who showed up at the construction site of the $246 million construction site Friday to show their disagreement with the expansion.
The protestors say the casino is building on what they consider 'sacred' burial grounds.
The Poarch Band of Creek Indians are in the midst of a major expansion and have insisted that all Native Americans who were buried on the property were re-buried on another spot of land and a prayer ceremony was conducted over them.
Gray and 3 other protestors were arrested after they went onto the property and expressed their displeasure. Tribal police arrested each, charging them with trespassing, and Gray's terrorist threat.
Gray remains in the county jail under a $30,000 bond.

I actually got this for a Christmas present so I can't tell you how it will be used but it looks like something my friend will find a use for. It appears to be well-made and is really cute.
Everything Heidi makes is quality and this shadowbox frame is no different. It is beautiful alone but I will not stop at that and neighter will you.
I was very pleased with the size and materials used to make the frame. Very girly,yet sofisticated. I plan on using a collage in the frame.
I think this is the cutest thing. I put chalkboard like paper in it & use it to leave notes for my family. Love it!!!!!

The NBA Draft Lottery was held last night and for the 2nd year in a row and the 3rd of the last 4 the Cleveland Cavaliers have landed the right to make the first pick. Their odds of getting the first pick were miniscule and that has let to much internet and social media hand-wringing from alot of brain-dead bozos about how this system is rigged. Just stop it. There is no...I repeat no way the NBA could rig the lottery to benefit a specific team. The entire process is witnessed by representatives of all of the teams involved...plus an independent accounting firm...plus 4 members of the media. Please explain in clear cogent language how the fix could be done. Besides, two of the league's premier franchises were in the lottery this year and neither Boston or LA was rewarded. That's because it's the luck of the draw...and Cleveland has been extremely lucky the last few years. Now they have to show something for it and not miss on the pick like last year. The Bucks, who had the best odds of picking first will pick second. This isnt the worst thing in the world. They will still get an excellent player, possibly a franchise changing player, without the baggage or cost of being the top pick. Now the Bucks need to pick well. I would like them to take either Wiggins or Parker . We shall see if the Bucks brass agrees when the drat is held in June.
How do you replace a legend? BJ Brandt will find out as he steps into the head hockey job at Wausau West. Brandt should be well prepared to take over for Wisconsin Hockey Hall of Famer Pete Susens. He played at West for Pete back in the 90's before heading off to Central Michigan as a punter. He's been back teaching and coaching at West since 2006 and one of his coaching jobs was the JV hockey spot. I coached BJ on the Wausau Legion baseball team back in the 90's and he was a part of out 1998 State Championship team and remember him as a team player who was well prepared when called upon. It should be a good fit.
I did the Wausau East-Stevens Point baseball game last night. Stevens Point is one of the most talented squads I've seen in awhile. a large collection of seniors with alot of experience sprinkled with youngsters like Trevor Anderson. The sophomore, who was the Valley Hoops Player of the Year, can play a little baseball too. He started at shortstop and looked smooth, and also pitched two inning of relief and threw gas. The Panther pitching staff is so deep that he cant even crack the Top 4. And even though anything can happen in the one & done scenario..it would be a shock if they do not reyurn to the State Tournament this year.
The Coaches meet today to seed the tournament which begins on June 3rd

If you use a Tablet PC, here are some ways to use it more effectively.
To see Tablet PC Settings and Pen and Touch, you must be using a Tablet PC or a computer with a touchscreen.
One of the great things about a Tablet PC is that you can use the tablet pen to interact with items on the screen. Here are some tips for using your tablet pen:
Make sure your Tablet PC screen and pen are properly calibrated
Calibration ensures that your Tablet PC correctly recognizes the position of your pen. In Windows 7, when you calibrate for the first time, the screen uses 16 different reference points. This initial calibration applies to all users of the Tablet PC. If you calibrate again, only 4 points are used, and apply only to your user account.
On the Display tab, under Display Options, tap Calibrate.
If you're prompted for an administrator password or confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.
Follow the instructions on the screen, and then tap Yes to save your calibration settings.
To perform a 16-point calibration again, in the Tablet PC Properties window, tap the Reset button.
If you're prompted for an administrator password or confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation. Tap OK, and then tap the Calibrate button.
If you begin a 16-point calibration and your screen is set to Portrait orientation, it will change temporarily to Landscape during the calibration.
Use your tablet pen even if you're using a convertible Tablet PC in laptop mode
You might find that this feels more natural than using a mouse or the pointing device on your keyboard.
Turn on flicks
Use flicks to perform actions quickly and easily with your tablet pen. You can use navigational flicks (drag up, drag down, move back, and move forward) and editing flicks (copy, paste, undo, and delete). You can also customize flicks for actions that you use often. For example, if you frequently use keyboard shortcuts, such as F5 or Ctrl+B, you can assign flicks to perform the same functions as pressing those key combinations. For more information, see What are flicks? and Customize flicks.
Tap the Flicks tab, and then do one of the following:
To turn on flicks, select the Use flicks to perform common actions quickly and easily check box, tap either Navigational flicks or Navigational flicks and editing flicks, and then tap OK.
To customize flicks, tap Navigational flicks and editing flicks, and then tap Customize. In the Customize Flicks dialog box, make whatever changes you want, tap OK, and then tap OK again.
If touch input is available on your computer, you can also perform flicks with your finger.
Use Snipping Tool to capture an area of your screen
After snipping, you can use the captured image in an e‑mail message, a Windows Journal file, or anywhere else that you can paste an image. For example, use Snipping Tool to highlight important information in a spreadsheet and send it in e‑mail. Or, use it to capture an interesting headline from a website to use in a presentation. You can also write on the captured image with your tablet pen.
Use check boxes to select multiple items
Check boxes are the easiest way to select multiple items, such as files and folders, with your tablet pen—just point to each item and select each item's check box.
By default, check boxes are turned on when you're using a Tablet PC. To turn check boxes on or off, follow these steps:
Open Folder Options by tapping the Start button , tapping Control Panel, tapping Appearance and Personalization, and then tapping Folder Options.
Tap the View tab.
Under Advanced settings, select or clear the Use check boxes to select items check box, and then tap OK.
With Tablet PC Input Panel, you can enter and correct text without using the keyboard. Here are some tips to make Tablet PC Input Panel easier to use:
Customize how you access Input Panel. You can change where, when, and if Input Panel appears on your screen. For more information, see Opening and moving Tablet PC Input Panel.
Use gestures to delete, split, and join words that you write, and to control the insertion point. Gestures are motions that you make or symbols that you draw with your tablet pen. For more information, see How do I use gestures in Tablet PC Input Panel?
Change how you use the Insert button. You can set the Insert button so that it works when you point to it with your pen. This makes entering text faster because, instead of tapping the button, you can just wave your pen over it.
Open Tablet PC Input Panel by clicking the Start button . In the search box, type Tablet PC Input Panel, and then, in the list of results, tap Tablet PC Input Panel.
Tap Tools.
Tap Options.
On the Insertion tab of the Options dialog box, select Point to the Insert button, and then tap OK.
It can be frustrating if your Tablet PC doesn't recognize your handwriting correctly. Here are some tips for improving the chances that your handwriting is recognized correctly:
Provide lots of handwriting samples in Handwriting Personalization.
Open Handwriting Personalization by tapping the Start button . In the search box, type personalize handwriting recognition, and then, in the list of results, tap Personalize handwriting recognition.
Improve handwriting recognition for words such as proper names, acronyms, technical terms, and abbreviations by adding those words to the handwriting dictionary.
Try writing in cursive, rather than print. Cursive handwriting (even if it's a little bit messy) tends to be recognized more accurately than printing (even if you print very neatly).
For more information, see Strategies for improving handwriting recognition.
You can use the buttons on your Tablet PC (called
tablet buttons) to perform common tasks quickly. For example, if you frequently open Windows Journal, you can set a tablet button to do this for you.
You can assign two actions to most tablet buttons. Press a button once quickly to perform one action. Press and hold the button to perform the other action.
Tap the Buttons tab. The names of the tablet buttons that you can customize appear in the Tablet button list.
If you don't see the Buttons tab, you might not be using a Tablet PC. Or, you might need to update the drivers. For help with drivers, check with your Tablet PC manufacturer or see Update a driver for hardware that isn't working properly.
Windows includes two ways to write handwritten notes:
Take notes in Windows Journal. With Journal, you can create, format, organize, and share notes that you write using your Tablet PC. For more information, see Create and personalize handwritten notes using Windows Journal.
Jot something down on a sticky note. Use sticky notes to write lists or quick notes to yourself. For more information, see Using Sticky Notes.
In addition to all the Tablet PC-specific things that you can do, you can use all the mobile features included in a standard laptop. For more information, see Unleash the power of your laptop.

CALL for Action (414) 286-CITY | Click for Action
Get your free Milwaukee by Bike map at all area bike shops, libraries, City Hall, County Parks. Or download and print (using a large plotter) below:
Map covers the Milwaukee region from the Illinois State Line to Port Washington and west to Oconomowoc. It directs cyclists to roads deemed by a local researcher to be the best route option in an area. These routes were selected and field-tested by one of Milwaukee's most avid bicycle explorers, then checked by other experienced bicyclists. it is a little less complicated to use than the state map for that reason. You will find unique local roads and little-known bike trails for great recreational riding plus direct, bike-friendly routes to get you to work and back or through your daily errands. All of it is laid out in an easy-to-read network of roads and trails that will take you where you want to go.
Map divides the state into four sections and rates the roads based on conditions like posted speed limits and the number of cars per day. It also shows off-street trails and rural roads with paved shoulders. The Southeast section covers an area from Madison to Milwaukee and from the Illinois border to Door County. This map offers the lots of information for cyclists to make their own choices based on road type. And although it is improved over previous versions, because of its scale, it cannot offer as detailed information about roads in the urban areas.

All the militants, who were prepared to be suicide bombers, died as well, officials said. Six detonated their explosives, said Siddiq Siddiqi, spokesman for the Afghanistan Interior Ministry. The other three were killed on the hotel roof by NATO International Security Assistance Force (ISAF) snipers.
One was a Spanish citizen, Spain's news agency EFE reported, citing a family source. Antonio Planas, a 48-year-old pilot, leaves behind a wife and a daughter.
Two Special Operations Forces from New Zealand "received moderate injuries" in responding to the attack, the New Zealand military said.
The Taliban claimed responsibility for the siege. Zabiullah Mujahid, a Taliban spokesman, said suicide attackers entered the hotel after killing security guards at the entrance. "One of the suicide attackers told us on the phone that they are in the lobby and chasing guests into their rooms by smashing the doors of the rooms," Mujahid told CNN in an e-mail as the incident was unfolding.
But a Kabul-based official who has direct access to security information told CNN it is believed the attack was instead orchestrated by the Haqqani network, a group of terrorists loyal to the warlord Siraq Haqqani.
The Haqqanis have staged many spectacular attacks in Kabul in recent years and have the longstanding goal of trying to destabilize the Karzai government. "Confidence is high" in the information that the Haqqanis were behind the attack, the official said.
The attackers wore suicide belts, the official said. The first detonated at an entrance to the hotel, and others then rushed in, the official said.
While NATO played a key role in helping Afghan police and military end the attack, Afghan President Hamid Karzai said it will not interrupt the planned handover of power from international forces to Afghan troops.
ISAF sent a similar message, praising "the rapid response by Afghan security forces who cleared the building and secured the situation."
"This attack will do nothing to prevent the security transition process from moving forward," said Rear Admiral Vic Beck, ISAF spokesman. U.S. President Barack Obama's administration has said U.S. troops will start withdrawing from Afghanistan in July, and that a military handover should be completed in 2014.
"Our thoughts and prayers are with the families of the dead and injured," Beck said in a statement. He added, "Even though insurgents have declared their intention to avoid civilian casualties, this attack put Afghan lives at risk and demonstrates their complete disregard for the Afghan people."
Karzai condemned the "terrorists" who "have no mercy on killings of civilians."
The attack came on the eve of a news conference that was scheduled to take place at the hotel Wednesday to discuss the planned transition of security from international to Afghan forces that U.S. President Barack Obama announced last week.
The news conference was canceled, and the hotel remained closed Wednesday.
Afghan authorities said they believe the attackers crept up through woods near the hotel to evade police checkpoints on the main road.
One attacker detonated a suicide vest in the lobby, causing chaos, officials said. At least five accomplices then stormed upstairs, ultimately making it to the roof.
Afghan commandos were among those who arrived shortly after, officials said.

4 gas-saving tips you'll ignore; 5 you won't
Driving slower will save fuel, but it might not be safe.
This post comes from partner blog Blueprint for Financial Prosperity.
One thing I don't like about typical gas-saving posts is that they give great tips you'll never use.
- Bing: How to save money on gas
great tips you will absolutely, without a doubt, 100%,
take-no-prisoners ignore until you're blue in the face. You'll ignore
them because you don't like the tips.
Here are four tips you'll
ignore, and why you (and I) ignore them. Then I'll follow with some
tips I think you won't ignore, because they're easy.
Drive 55 mph.
This tip is by far the one you'll ignore the most because we all like
to get where we're going as quickly as possible. In fact, despite
studies showing an increase in fuel efficiency at 55 mph, the bottom
line is that when the feds adopted that speed limit because of the 1973
oil crisis, gasoline consumption dropped only 1%.
You are most likely to ignore this rule because the speed limit on most
highways is now 65 mph, and many drivers exceed that. Driving at 55 mph
puts you at risk as aggressive drivers start weaving around you.
Carpool. Carpooling saves gasoline because you use less of it. It's brilliant in its simplicity until you try to carpool and find that no one lives near you and has the same schedule. I try to carpool when it's convenient, trading beers for rides into Baltimore, but the day-to-day thing simply doesn't work well.
Reduce weight in the trunk. Some
people even advise that you take the spare out of your trunk to save on
fuel. It's a great tip if you have cinder blocks in your trunk, but I
don't think I have more than 10 pounds of stuff in my trunk (not
counting the spare, which is staying in there no matter what). This tip
is great in principle but fails in practice. The things in most
people's trunks are there for a good reason.
Buy a smaller car. Great tip, except you already have a car. The process of selling a car and buying a new one
is difficult. I think buying a car is one of the more stressful
decisions a person can make, next to buying a house and getting
married. If you could swap your gas guzzler for a svelte gas sipper,
I'm sure you would, but it's not that simple. This is like suggesting
you trade in your spouse for someone more attentive or more
Tips you'll use
Here are five simple tips you'll actually follow:
Scan GasBuddy before filling up.
You probably can get to a computer before you hop into your car to fill
up the tank, so jump onto GasBuddy (or your gas-station search of
choice) and find the one along your route that has the cheapest gas.
Use the correct octane.
If your owner's manual says you should use premium, use premium. If it
says regular and you're using premium, you're wasting your money.
Make sure your tires are properly inflated.
It's estimated you can lose 6% fuel efficiency if your tires are
underinflated, and their life will be reduced because of uneven wear.
Change your oil regularly.
This easy step keeps your engine operating at peak performance. Do so
only on the schedule in your manual; ignore that 3,000-mile advice
unless your manual recommends it.
Change your air filter. This simple maintenance task will save you up to 10% fuel efficiency. If your engine is starving for air because your filter looks like Snoop Dogg's lungs, then you're wasting a lot of money.

I made this recipe when I was in the mood for something chocolate-y, and I discovered I miraculously had all the ingredients for this pudding. I am a huge chocolate lover and usually can't get enough, but for some reason, with this recipe, I only like about 3 bites. I've never made pudding from scratch before, so I think I'd need to try some other recipes to compare this one - It was tasty, but I did get lumps (which I really don't like). I wouldn't serve it to company - quite honestly, I prefer making it from the box (not instant), so I'm not sure what's up with that. It definitely needs some whipped cream on top.

|We present the principle, a possible implementation and performance estimates of a novel geometrical concept for a high resolution positron emission tomograph. The concept, which can for example be implemented in a brain PET device, promisses to lead to an essentially parallax free 3D image reconstruction with excellent spatial resolution and constrast, uniform over the complete field of view. The key components are matrices of long axially oriented scintillator crystals which are read out at both extremities by segmented Hybrid Photon Detectors. We discuss the relevant design considerations for a 3D axial PET camera module, motivate parameter and material choices, and estimate its performance in terms of spatial and energy resolution. We support these estimates by Monte Carlo simulations and in some cases by first experimental results. From the performance of a camera module, we extrapolate to the reconstruction resolution of a 3D axial PET scanner in a semi-analytical way and compare it to an existing state-of-the art brain PET device. We finally describe a dedicated data acquisition system, capable to fully exploit the advantages of the proposed concept. We conclude that the proposed 3D Axial concept and the discussed implementation is a competitive approach for high resolution brain PET. Excellent energy resolution and Compton enhanced sensitivity are expected to lead to high quality reconstruction and reduced scanning times.

Today's Front Pages Analysis
Brits celebrate, Yanks ponder; Easter starts off on a downer
U.K. newspapers splashed the release of 15 British sailors by Iran all over their front pages, and the story showed up prominently in the United States, too. Big pictures of the smiling sailors were the favored artwork, and headlines were big: "Freed with a handshake and a pardon from the president," said The Guardian in London. To a casual reader, different headlines left a different impression: Had the sailors already been released, or were they about to be released? West Hawaii Today conveyed the latter: "Home at last." The Washington Times, the former: "Iran to free British troops." A couple of newspapers already had moved on from the breaking news to long-term analysis: "Lessons of British release," The Christian Science Monitor, Boston; "Tehran may pay price for short-term victory," The Plain Dealer, Cleveland.
The seemingly longest-ever presidential campaign stayed out front in many regions. Editors were interested in a report by Democratic hopeful Barack Obama that he had raised $25 million for his campaign. Baltimore's Sun put together a front-page package on all the candidates' war chests under the headline "The politics of money." New York's Newsday also stayed on top of politics but decided to tease stories on Obama and Rudy Guiliani and instead lead with a big story titled "That's cold." The Islanders' Ice Girls – young ladies who skate out to clean the hockey rink during timeouts – claimed the Rangers players slashed them, spit on them and yelled at them during Tuesday night's game. (The Rangers lost 3-2.)
Finally, the approaching Easter holiday started to show up this week in newspapers across the nation. The Cecil Whig in Elkton, Md., reported on a local woman who had "hatched a high-tech egg hunt." Kids will use global positioning satellite technology to find the eggs this year.
And while that really doesn't sound like much fun, Marylanders with GPS devices may have a better Easter than the folks in Marion, Ind., who got some disappointing news from today's Chronicle-Tribune. The Marion Easter Pageant, a 70-year-old tradition, has ended. The culprit: No money, and nowhere to hold it. "We just cannot do it anymore," pageant president Ken Hussong told the parishioners of the First Baptist Church. "There's no way to sugarcoat it."

For the first time in Castlevania history, Dracula is the star of the game in Lords of Shadow 2. The latest developer diary takes a look at how seriously developer Mercury Steam took the job of making Dracula more than just an end boss.
In the video below, you will hear from Lords of Shadow 2 producer Dave Cox and studio head Enric Alvarez about designing Dracula, and where his motivations lie. We also recently spoke with Dracula's performer, Robert Carlyle about portraying the character, which you can check out here.
For more on Lords of Shadow 2, you can check out the most recent trailer, which focuses on Alucard's role in the game. Castlevania: Lords of Shadow 2 is coming to PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, and PC on February 25.

Thanks for posting this Kyle! I am so excited for Lords of Shadow 2! It's one of the key things keeping me from getting a next-gen system at launch.
