Two good reasons - sound quality and cool features. A new car stereo offers power that's superior to most factory radios, along with more sophisticated tone controls. And most car stereos offer built-in or optional features that add safety and fun to life in your car, including inputs for your iPod or MP3 player, Bluetooth connectivity for hands-free cell phone calls, satellite radio or HD Radio reception, and connections for building an audio system in your car. The best-sounding radio The CDE-HD148BT CD receiver will appeal to AM/FM radio fans everywhere with its built-in HD Radio™ tuner. Stations broadcasting an HD Radio signal offer a digital signal with FM that sounds nearly on par with a CD, and smooth -sounding AM that doesn't crackle with static on those hot summer nights. And many HD Radio stations offer multicasting, letting you enjoy different programming options on the same frequency. If you want to take your radio listening to the outer limits, you can also add a SiriusXM tuner to this receiver (subscription required) and enjoy unparalleled choices in news, talk, sports, and commercial-free music. The CDE-HD148BT can tune into the improved sound quality of HD Radio stations. Bluetooth® safety and convenience Built-in Bluetooth lets you make and take calls hands-free when you're in the car, so you can keep your attention on the road while you talk — no fumbling for the phone or driving with one hand in busy traffic. And you can stream audio from your Bluetooth devices too, with receiver control of basic functions like track up and down. Plus, Alpine's Quad illumination lets you choose from four different colors for the receiver's control buttons for a style that'll work in your car. Sound quality from the cloud Alpine's new TuneIt App lets you tap into the power of your Android™, iPhone®, and the cloud to customize this receiver's sound output for your car. Download the TuneIt app and you'll have access to over 3000 custom sound parameters from Alpine's servers. The sound parameters tailor the CDE-HD148BT's 9-band equalizer, digital time correction, high- and low-pass filters, and Media Xpander to tune your system to match your car model, car type, and listening position. And you can share your custom settings with others and even get feedback through Facebook. Plenty of listening options The CDE-HD148BT features a handy front-panel auxiliary input and a rear USB port with extension cable. Plug into the USB port for full control over the music stored on your iPhone or iPod®, while Alpine's App Direct Mode lets you control basic playback and view song/artist info from many iPhone music apps. Of course you can enjoy your CDs too, including recordable discs. System expansion Want more power? You can add Alpine's KTP-445 Power Pack amplifier, a compact plug-and-play solution that brings this receiver's power output up to 45 watts RMS per channel. Or you can hook up conventional external amplifiers to the three sets of high-voltage preamp outputs to create a killer system for your ride. Want to keep your steering wheel controls? In most vehicles, you can use an adapter (not included) to connect your vehicle's steering wheel controls to this Alpine stereo. Connect a few wires, then program the adapter for your particular car and the Alpine, and you'll retain the convenience of your steering wheel controls. Check the "Accessories" tab for compatible adapters. Bluetooth note: Use of this receiver's Bluetooth features will depend upon your phone's Bluetooth capabilities.

Subwoofer Control: When the non-fading subwoofer preamp output is activated, you can adjust the subwoofer's volume, low-pass filter, & phase. Volume: There are two volume (system) modes for the unit's subwoofer output. System 1 (subwoofer level changes according to the main volume setting) or System 2 ( subwoofer level change is different from the main volume setting (0-15); even at low volume settings, the subwoofer is still audible. Low Pass Filter: The unit's subwoofer output low-pass filter can be set to 20Hz, 25Hz, 31.5Hz, 40Hz, 50Hz, 63Hz, 80Hz, 100Hz, 125Hz, 160Hz, 200Hz, or Off (through).

Audio Enhancements: The CDE-HD148BT offers the following audio adjustments to enhance your in-car listening experience. Media Xpander: Alpine's exclusive Media Xpander is engineered to bring out the musical details lost in compressed media, and it is adjustable per source to get the most out of your digital audio media. The Media Expander makes vocals or instruments sound distinct regardless of the music source. You can customize the Media Xpander to suit your personal taste by adjusting the level (0-8) for Bass, Mids, and Highs. The FM radio, CD, USB, iPod, Pandora, Bluetooth, and Aux will be able to reproduce the music more clearly even in vehicles with a lot of road noise. Time Correction: This unit is able to delay the audio signal to the speakers closest to the listener with its built-in Time Correction feature. This effectively creates a perception of increased distance for those speakers. Time Correction allows the listener to be placed at an equal distance between the left and right speakers for optimum staging. You can adjust the distance (0-132.7") of each speaker and subwoofer to the listener. Spatial: This feature allows you to change the soundstage of your music in the vehicle. You can select from three modes. Front Wide: Creates the effect of widening the front sound field by delaying the sound of the front speakers. Rear Wide: Creates the effect of making the front sound image clear and far by delaying the sound of the rear speakers. Off: No effect is applied (default) Source Volume Level: The output level of each source (Tuner, Disc, USB, iPod, Bluetooth, Pandora, Aux) is individually adjustable from -14 to + 14 dB. TuneIt App: TuneIt is an easy-to-use sound-tuning app that also offers Facebook notifications. Download this free app onto your Apple iPhone iOS 6.0+ (via iTunes) or Android smartphone (coming soon via Google Play) and create a user profile about your vehicle and sound system. Your iPhone must be connected to the CDE-HD148BT via the appropriate Alpine iPod connector cable (500KCU445I, sold separately) or the Dock-/Lightning-cable that came with your iPhone. Your Android smartphone must support A2DP/AVRCP/SPP Bluetooth profiles and be paired with the Alpine receiver. Your iPhone or Android smartphone will also need an active Data Plan account with connection to the Internet via 3G, EDGE, or WiFi. Sound Tuning: The TuneIt app turns your iPhone or Android smartphone into a sound tuning interface for the CDE-HD148BT . Follow the simple TuneIt graphical instructions on your phone to adjust sound settings for your specific vehicle or choose from pre-made settings in the database. Settings that can be adjusted include Time Correction, Parametric EQ, Crossover, and Media Xpander. As you change settings on your smartphone, you will hear the results, so you can customize the sound to exactly how you want it. You can make and save up to 100 different sound settings in your account, which is helpful if you want various settings to use for specific types of music. After tuning your system, upload your settings to the Alpine Cloud Server to share them with other Alpine fans. You can also check out other user's settings and rate them. The more active you are, the higher your profile status progresses within the app. Facebook Notifications: The TuneIt app also keeps you in touch with your Facebook friends. When you receive a notification, you will get a visual alert on the smartphone and the head unit, plus a sound alert through your car speakers. The visual notification includes the Facebook icon and the sender's name, with the profile picture shown on the phone. In order to receive Facebook notifications on the head unit, the TuneIt app must be the active app on your smartphone. Note: Access to TuneIt will depend on the availability of a cellular and/or WiFi network for purposes of allowing your iPhone or smartphone to connect to the Internet. You will also need to turn on the GPS function of your phone. Beep Guide: This function will give audible feedback with varying tones depending upon the button pressed. The volume of this feature can be set from 0-7. Display Features Detachable Face: The unit features a single front loading CD face that detaches from the chassis to deter theft. A hard plastic face case is provided to store the detachable faceplate. An optional soft face case (142DFC1X, sold separately) can also be purchased for this unit. A face-fixing screw is supplied for making the face non-detachable, if desired. 2-Line LCD: This unit is equipped with a 2-Line white-backlit LCD, so you can easily view AM/FM stations, CD-Text, and ID-3/WMA/AAC tag information. Text Display: Text information, such as the disc name and the track name, will be displayed if playing a CD text compatible disc. It is also possible to display the folder name, the file name, and the tag information, while playing a MP3/WMA/AAC disc or USB device. This unit can scroll the disc and track names recorded on CD-Text disc, as well as the text information of MP3/WMA/AAC files, folder names, and tags. There are two Text Scroll settings. Auto: The CD text information, the information of folder and file names, and the tags are scrolled automatically. Manual: The display is scrolled when a disc is loaded or when a track is changed. Variable Color Button Illumination: The head unit lets you choose between Blue, Green, Red, or Amber button illumination. The LCD text will remain white. Auto Dimmer: This unit is equipped with an illumination lead (orange); when the unit's dimmer mode is set to Auto and the illumination lead is connected to your vehicle's headlight circuit, the display and button illumination will dim to a fixed, preset level whenever the headlights are turned on. If preferred, you may choose the Manual dimmer mode setting, so the display and button illumination is dim at all times. Demo Mode: This unit has a demonstration feature for its display which can be turned On or Off in the menu. Remote Control Steering Wheel Remote Compatibility: The head unit features an OEM steering wheel remote control input on the rear of the unit that lets you keep your vehicle's factory radio steering wheel remote controls when used with an optional steering wheel audio control adapter (sold separately).

I am pleased with the radio. The sound is good with factory speakers. My main complaint is that the display will not show the current station, only FM1, etc. Was this review helpful? Yes | No "Coolness Factor" Build Quality Ease of Use Sound Quality Value 5 out of 5 Outstanding Value Written By MikeA, Naperville, IL on Saturday, October 04, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Alpine has hit it out of the park in my opinion with this system. For me it is the right combination of price, features and performance. The Alpine brand has always been a leader in sound and build quality so I felt safe ranking them high in my selection criteria. The feature set is what finally sold me. I wanted a system with Bluetooth capability for hands free calling and audio playback from my smart phone...which is a Samsung S4 not an iPhone which all the brands feel compelled to market too. In addition, I wanted an external microphone option for enhanced clarity during my car conversations. The Bluetooth audio is fantastic, I stream from Rhapsody and the Alpine handles it flawlessly while even displaying the Artist, Song current being played. The same is true for my USB drive content. You can choose the song details you want to display. I will admit, the two line display and the user interface to alter some of the functions can be a bit nested and cumbersome but I new that in a single DIN system this would be unavoidable. That is why I rank the Ease of Use criteria lowest due to the single DIN design, not what Alpine has done. Phone calls are handled effortless with the Alpine fading out the music to allow voice interaction with my phone. It works great! I am very satisfied with this system. If you are looking for the ultimate visual experience this is not the deck for you but if great features and performance is what you are looking for, here you go. Pros: Features, Sound Quality Cons: Nested Menus of a single DIN system Was this review helpful?

Wanted a new system to work with my phone as the factory radio in my 2006 Wrangler Rubicon was starting to have problems. This unit wasn't plastic y or cheap looking like a kid's toy like some head units and the Alpine name is generally respected. As for the performance, I needed the best output capability I could find in a receiver as I could not add an external amp without extensive rewiring and changes. This thing delivered in spades and exceeded my expectations for a replacement. The Bluetooth works flawlessly with my Android phone. It gets louder and sounds way better than the factory unit. I was torn between HD and regular radio and I extremely happy that I got the HD. Controls are not bad and most are intuitive but nothing is perfect. I compared different models of Alpine and other brands and this had everything I was or might be interested in. there may have been some other similar features on the other units but the main thing that sold me on this one was the firsthand knowledge and confidence in the superior build quality of this unit by the Crutchfield technician when I asked how this compared to others not costing as much. Pros: Attractive color changing front, fit was decent, sound quality, power, features including excellent Bluetooth Cons: None Was this review helpful?

Solid unit, looks classy and everything works great. The CD's don't skip, the USB works with flash drives, the bluetooth interfaced with my Galaxy S4 simply. Pros: Crutchfield provided all the correct mounting accessories and instructions for my 2004 Dodge Stratus, installing was simple. You'll need some wire-to-wire crimp connects. Kit w/ pocket Item #: 120996504, Wire Harness Item #: 120706502, Antenna Adaptor Item #: 12040CR10 Cons: I can't find the equalizer settings I thought it had, just the sub, bass, treble. I wish selecting a source was faster, you have to cycle through all the inputs (radio, disc, usb, pandora, ...) whether its available or not.

Good solid radio with awesome features. It falls flat when it comes to bass, you either need to add a subwoofer or Apline needs to add a bass boost for a bit more punch Pros: Love the Bluetooth and the idea of making custom tunings for your car. Cons: TuneIt takes a while to figure out, and its lacking bass punch. This stereo would be awesome with a bass boost. 1 out of 3 people found this helpful Was this review helpful?

Great unit for my car. This replaced a factory unit and I couldn't be happier. Sounds 100% better and the bluetooth/hands free calling works perfect with my android phone. Easy install thanks to Crutchfield's install sheet and customer service. I also bought the alpine power pack amp and it was a plug and play install and fit easily behind the dash and it really made the unit come to life. Pros: Bluetooth, hands free calling, sound quality, HD radio...all easy to use and very nice features...

My first new car radio self-install in 20+ years. It went very smoothly with excellent help from the Crutchfield technical team. The radio looks and sounds great and is a major upgrade to our 2004 4Runner!

Nicely made. Substantial. Has the look and feel (buttons) of a quality unit. I wanted to keep my factory BMW (1986) radio, but it finally died. I'm fussy about quality. I wanted something that would look and perform just as good if not better. And have all the new capabilities. I'll make no apologies for this unit. Even with the old speakers it sounds great. Pros: Fully adjustable sound. Not much bling. 3 out of 3 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes | No "Coolness Factor" Build Quality Ease of Use Sound Quality Value 4 out of 5 CDE-HD148BT Review Written By Gaz, Montana, USA on Saturday, May 17, 2014 I have had this receiver for almost a year now. It is an overall great product. The only feature I have ever really used is the bluetooth. I get in my car and start it up, and the receiver links to the iPhone 5 in my pocket right away and I can control the music and the phone straight from the deck. There is only one problem. After almost a year of use, the bluetooth doesn't work anymore. The receiver won't pair with anything. I have tried resetting, and I have followed all directions and I can't get it to work. I won't bother trying to fix it. I don't plan on putting any more money into my current vehicle. I plan on getting a new one. Everything else about the deck is great. This will probably be my last Alpine deck. I have had two previous Alpine decks and they were all great. I just think it's time for something different. 1 out of 1 people found this helpful Was this review helpful?

Once again Alpine has blown me away with another high quality head unit!!! I have been running Alpine head units for about 14 years now, and every time I upgrade, I am just blown away and speechless!!! Feature packed awesomeness!!! Controls everything right from the head unit. It literally does everything anyone could ever want!!! I tested the head unit powering my upgraded speakers, sounded amazing. Now I am running JBL amp, and MTX Thunder 8000 12" sub, and this deck lets me adjust anything and everything on the fly as I see fit, I couldn't ask for anything more!!! Pros: Awesome features, controls every aspect of your system right at your fingertips, the sound quality is second to NONE!!! Color changing face :-D , easy installation, usb and aux hookups, 4 volt preouts for amp installs!!! LOVE IT!!! Cons: as amazing as this unit is, I often find it to be a bit time consuming to navigate through all of the features, that is one thing I wish they would have added easy buttons for. 3 out of 3 people found this helpful Was this review helpful?

Recently installed this stereo in my 02' Accord. I was looking for a stereo with iPod connectivity, and Bluetooth. This unit exceeded my expectations. Its a great all around receiver, plus it comes with HD Radio which makes listening to the radio so much better. I also am impressed by how great the hand-free calling feature works. I haven't had anyone complain about the phone breaking up while using the hands-free feature. The unit's sound output is much better than my stock stereo and I haven't even configured the Tuneit feature yet. With that said, I'm sure the Tuneit feature will make it sound even better. Pros: Overall, this is a nice higher end receiver that allows for easy upgrades such as adding an amplifier. I haven't yet added an amp, but can't wait to hear the sound improvement. Especially since this receiver has 3 sets of pre-amp outputs pushing 4V each. Cons: Some of the menus are a little confusing at first. Had to print out the instruction manual included on CD. It doesn't take long to get the hang of it, but once you do you'll realize how easy it is to use. 1 out of 1 people found this helpful Was this review helpful?

Written By jkbennett, Reno, NV on Friday, March 07, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Had this head unit installed for a couple weeks now. Lots of hidden features/settings, but I can't bothered to read the manual, so I discover them on my own as I go. Sound quality is excellent. Very happy with my purchase. Pros: Sound quality, price, iPod/iPhone control. Cons: Occasionally while searching for a new album the unit will display "updating" which in turn makes me have to start the search all over.

Easy to install into a 2004 (New Body) F-150. Mating the wiring harness tails took the longest. Insertion was less than a half hour. Unit sounds great as is by just feeding the audio to the stock speakers (at least for now). Crutchfield service is excellent! Pros: Simple to install. Sound quality very good. All the pieces supplied by Crutchfield were perfect. Display visibility is good, digital FM sounds solid. Interface to my iPhone 4S through Bluetooth also sounds great. Cons: No clock while the unit is on. Instructions take some time to wade through. 1 out of 1 people found this helpful Was this review helpful?

A replacement HU for a Jeep JK Unlimited. Installs easily with the enclosed Crutchfield documents Direct device interface controls make operation simple. HD radio is definitely a plus. Alpine sound quality is exceptional as expected. Take some time to read the owners manual, as there are many features and settings which will assist in the ability to customize sound parameters for each individual vehicle application. Overall a great value, combine this with Crutchfields customer support, and you will not be disappointed. Pros: sound quality, easy install and set up. Multiple interface applications. Cons: BT sound quality on iPhone could be better. 1 out of 1 people found this helpful Was this review helpful?

I purchased this radio thinking it was an upgrade. I was looking for HD Radio features, this one has it and as a bonus Pandora and Bluetooth. HD Radio is great, however the text display should list artist and then song, this displays station and artist, click view button and song and genre. Now BT, maybe I have a bad unit but I don't like it. BT connected first time and went to Pandora on my HTC One and it played thru car speakers, now, I'm using the BT source on the HU. Stopped working after I turned off HU and on again, should connect automatically but didn't. Had to force connect, didn't work, turn off/on BT on both devices, didn't work. Delete device from HU and phone and pair again, just to work for couple minutes and lose sound again, that was BT Mode on HU. The HU has Pandora as a source and that didn't work at all. I'm thinking its my HTC One, tried my wife's iPhone 5 and same scenario, worked initial time but after power cycle HU, same problem. USB function, that is ok if you use flash drive, but HTC One charges battery and plays locally stored files. iPhone charges also and plays locally stored songs but no Pandora control on either cell phones. Hands-Free is cool when BT is working, was able to hide microphone behind dash for a clean look. So I don't know if the HU is defective, marketing lies or bad cell phones. Pros: HD Radio sounds great, 6 preouts, came with microphone and USB ext . Lights are changeable Cons: Bluetooth.No Pandora control thru USB, as advertised. HD Radio text. 2 out of 2 people found this helpful Was this review helpful?

This unit really improved the sound quality of our Sorrento. The basic functions of the unit are easy to use and I love the old time radio station push buttons. On the head unit in my truck I hate having to scroll up and down to change stations. We're still learning about all of the other features. Pros: Easy to set up for basic use. Cons: A DVD for the manual... really??? It's kind of a pain to have to go in the house to read the manual and then back out to the car to set a function. 3 out of 4 people found this helpful Was this review helpful?

Written By DerekD, Nashville, TN on Wednesday, January 29, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) This unit is a great value in terms of bluetooth functionality for media streaming from your phone, handsfree calling using the microphone and overall stereo audio quality. Would definitely recommend. Pros: Great sound. Excellent call quality wtih the bluetooth handsfree calling feature. People I'm on the phone with often ask me if I'm at home while I'm talking going down the highway. Cons: It's a small nit, but the options on displaying the clock are not greatest. For example your only option for the clock is to have a small display at the bottom of the display. The manual is not that good. 3 out of 3 people found this helpful Was this review helpful?

I bought this stereo for my wife. Works great. She praised it the first couple of days while figuring out how to use it. Got a couple of questions from her that I helped her out on. But most important of all, she is no longer complaining about the Jensen that was in the vehicle when we bought it. Pros: Makes my wife happy. No more complaining. Cons: I had to look some stuff up in the manual, She was not going to do it. 2 out of 2 people found this helpful Was this review helpful?

We are very happy with the Alpine quality, the sound is great. However I purchased this for my dad to use with his cell phone to comply with the new cell phone laws. The connection will not work, his phone connected 2 times and will not connect again & so far no solution. Very excellent customer service as always at Crutchfield! Pros: Excellent sound quality Nice looking Easy to install Cons: Will not work with dads Bluetooth cell phone 1 out of 1 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes | No "Coolness Factor" Build Quality Ease of Use Sound Quality Value 5 out of 5 Great Audio, Installation Instructions Lacking Written By David M, Cheraw, SC on Tuesday, January 14, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I am very impressed with the Alpine 148-BT head unit. I had an Alpine head unit in my previous vehicle, however it was 10 years old so I did not remove it when I sold it. In the new truck (new to me), one of the first things I missed was listening to my iPod in the car. I really enjoy the line in controls for the iPod that lets me choose whether to control the iPod with the head unit or via the iPod. With the digital line in the sound quality is excellent. I am really amazed at the better sound I am able to get out of the stock speakers. One of the main reasons I purchased this particular unit is for the Bluetooth connectivity and the ability to receive SiriusXM radio (with an additional part SXV200 v1)). The hands-free integration with my old iPhone 4 is flawless and have been told the sound quality is better than using the phone by itself. In the near future I plan to replace the factory speakers with a set of Alpine SPR-68's and also install Dynamat sound deadening to my doors. I would also like to add the SiriusXM connection. I gave four stars for value because Crutchfield charges more for the product, however I have purchased from Crutchfield before and appreciated the "extras" to help with installation. While I received all of the necessary parts, the installation instructions were not as thorough as before and I had to watch a few YouTube videos (not from Crutchfield) to help with the install. I highly recommend this head unit I installed in my 2000 Ford F-150 XLT Pros: Great sound. Flexible options (connectivity and colors). Easy to navigate. Cons: Installation instructions/guides were not as thorough as I have received from Crutchfield in the past. 3 out of 3 people found this helpful Was this review helpful?

Great head sounds very good very powerful. The 18w this head puts out are big strong watts. The display is a bit plain but the ability to change the color to match your gauge display is nice. Having the song info from hd stations is a great plus. The controls are not that hard to use but could be a little more intuitive. Over all this has been a very nice upgrade to my car and would recommend this product to friends and family. Pros: sounds awesome: front, rear and sub rca jacks Cons: ? Was this review helpful?

But this unit is awesome. many many features available. you can place 2 amps a 4 channel and mono. great sub and eq controls. not a high end but does wonders for low to medium range car audio guys.

Besides, if RPGers were more like Pro Sports stars, wouldn't that make us even more useless?

Cute comparison, but don't forget that player cards on sports only get made for the pros and up-and-coming semi-pros. Amateurs (which is all of us) wouldn't have cards unless we were performing well in some competitive RPG league. THOSE guys get their own cards! ;-)
Obviously, this means we need to create a competitive RPG league and post our stats to until some of us become acknowledged as pro - then we get gamer cards! LOL! :-D

Pinot Noir may be one grape, but it has developed two distinct personalities in this country. They have as much to do with each other as a string quartet and heavy metal; both are music, but one was designed to decorate the status quo and the other to shake it up. That's how it is with Pinot Noir in America.

What is Causing the Differences in Progesterone and Estrogen Concentrations Between Lactating Dairy Cows and Heifers?
Wiltbank and co-workers at the University of Wisconsin-Madison found that feed dry matter intake differences of lactating dairy cows impacted on circulating concentrations of progesterone and estrogen [8]. These hormones are primarily metabolized in the liver. When dry matter intake was increased so was blood flow through the liver. Thus, the greater the blood flow through the liver, the greater the steroid hormone metabolism, resulting in less estrogen and progesterone remaining in circulation.
The research suggests that lactation per se is not the root of the problem. The reduced hormone concentrations likely are associated with the large amounts of feed that lactating cows must consume to produce large quantities of milk.
How Can We Resolve this Problem?
Increasing circulating progesterone concentration during the growth of the ovulatory follicle is a key factor to increase fertility in lactating dairy cows. Cows with greater progesterone concentrations at the time of prostaglandin F2α (PGF) of Ovsynch have greater probability of pregnancy (Figure 2). Therefore, creating higher concentrations of progesterone during Ovsynch should compensate for the progesterone lost due to high metabolism by the liver of lactating dairy cows and enhance fertility.
Strategy to Increase Progesterone Concentrations at Time of PGF of Ovsynch
Multiple strategies previously have been tested to increase progesterone prior to PGF injection of Ovsynch. In studies that used a controlled progesterone releasing intravaginal device (or CIDR) to achieve greater concentrations of progesterone during Ovsynch, there was no significant increase in progesterone on the day of PGF injection of Ovsynch or in resulting conception rates of cycling cows [9]. Concentrations of progesterone in cycling cows with a CIDR were similar to cows without a CIDR (2.7 compared with 2.8 ng/mL) [9].
Thus, use of a CIDR may not be the best strategy to increase progesterone concentrations and enhance fertility in lactating dairy cows. We therefore examined the possibility that GnRH inducement of a second (accessory) CL during Ovsynch could be used to more effectively enhance progesterone concentrations. In this case, cows would have two CL during Ovsynch, an older CL and a younger CL (accessory CL). The idea was that this accessory CL would increase the production of progesterone and compensate for the lost by liver metabolism.

Academic Results
Academic excellence is our primary objective at Bedford School. Standards are high and the atmosphere in the classroom is demanding and progressive. Our exam results are strong, with the curriculum structured to provide breadth and balance, and extend learning well beyond national requirements. We aim to inspire our students to become lifelong learners who have inquiring minds and a fundamental curiosity. We want them to be critical thinkers, to enjoy personal growth and to thrive on intellectual challenge.
A Level and IB combined grades
81.5% of IB and A2 exams were graded at A* to B or equivalent.
International Baccalaureate
The International Baccalaureate (IB) Programme is a globally recognised pre-university course designed for students aged 16 -19. Bedford School has recorded outstanding results in each of the years in which it has presented candidates for the IB Diploma examinations.
We believe that the IB gives our boys an edge as they seek places on particularly competitive university courses in the UK and elsewhere, and that it is also an asset to those who recognise that their future career may include an international dimension. It allows specialisation in a specific area, for example science, humanities or languages, while also offering breadth. The core components of Theory of Knowledge and Extended Essay develop critical thinking and writing and promote qualities of independence and curiosity which are essential for higher education, and the CAS programme takes boys out of the school to help others in the community.
2014 IB Results
- 36 points was the average score per candidate.
- 87.9% of higher Level grades were at 7/6/5, the equivalent of A*, A or B at A Level.
- 68.5% of Higher Level grades were at 7/6, the equivalent to A*/A at A level.
- 97.6% IB Diploma pass rate.
View the 2014 IB Exam Statistics>>
A Levels
The Advanced Level course at Bedford is a strong option for boys wishing to follow the traditional pattern of subjects and for many it is the natural choice. It is often attractive to those who wish to specialise after GCSE. Students also enjoy a Skills Programme to prepare them for university life, which is complemented by a full lecture programme with major speakers from outside the School. A wide range of sporting and service opportunities are also offered.
2014 A Level Results
79.1% of entries resulted in passes at top grades A* to B.
92.6% of entries resulted in pass grades A* to C.
The two year course provides a strong foundation for boys moving on to A Level or the IB Diploma. Boys study a core of English, Maths, a Modern Language and all three Sciences as well as a broad range of other subjects to provide them with a secure and challenging academic foundation.
2014 GCSE Results
63.0% of entries resulted in top grades A* or A.
96.1% of entries resulted in pass grades A* to C

Drew Barrymore is adding to her brood. The 38-year-old is pregnant with her second child. Drew and hubby Will Kopelman welcomed daughter Olive in September 2012. The couple wed in June of that year. In a recent interview on The Tonight Show, Drew said she wanted to have another baby "very much, right away."
Teen Mom star Amber Portwood was released from an Indiana prison yesterday after serving 17 months for violating probation in her drug possession case. The judge had given Amber the choice of going to a drug rehab program instead of prison, but she chose to be locked up. She was originally sentenced to five years, but was granted early release due to good behavior, time served and the completion of two unspecified prison courses while serving her time. After being sprung, the former reality star said the first thing she wanted to do was "go get something good to eat."
Brooke Mueller won't be getting rid of Charlie Sheen so easily. A judge has refused to give the recovering addict a restraining order against Charlie for allegedly threatening her life last week. Brooke asked for a temporary restraining order after he called her an "evil witch who's putting their twins' lives in danger." Charlie told TMZ he would be "gunning for full custody come hell or high water." Brooke reportedly believes that Charlie is on a mission to sabotage her sobriety, and she's even afraid he'll plant drugs on her. A hearing is set for next month so Brooke can make her case again in person.
After a brawl with a bar bouncer last week, Josh Brolin followed it up by fighting with a cabbie after a fender-bender at a taco-stand drive-through. Josh apparently rear-ended the taxi, and when the driver attempted to exchange insurance info, he went off. After the cabbie disagreed with Josh's assessment that the collision had caused just a minor scratch, Brolin got enraged and yelled, "You suck as a cab driver." The cabbie then pulled forward to clear the drive-through lane, and Josh took off. That could be construed as hit-and-run, but the cabbie has yet to contact police.

Hello everybody! I hope summer is treating you with amazing produce, relaxation, and plenty of time spent with friends and family. The weather in Portland has been pretty nice – and that's saying a lot coming from somebody who prefers clouds, cool temperatures, and rain over the heat and constant sunshine. Diagnosis: I have a black, evil soul…
I also have a few super-duper surprises! Since quitting my job earlier this month I have had more time to bake and be happy. My job was consuming my insides and turning me into an empty shell. Sounds dim, huh? Eventually I will be seeking out employment because after all, it is essential. And it helps me pay the bills! In the meantime, I am writing and creating recipes for a vegan brownie book!! Hooray! A few good friends have been motivating and encouraging me to distribute my brownies around the world. That task seems mighty overwhelming so I am splitting the difference. I have been working on recipes for the last three months and Tim was the one who suggested I write a book. It's going to be lots of work, but so far I am enjoying every minute.
Here, have a look at my Newman O's brownies:
My second announcement is that I will be opening an Etsy shop soon and selling handmade cards. It might take me a few weeks to get everything ready, but I will post a link to my shop once I'm done.
That's it! Happy weekend everybody!

Tonight for dinner I made the Big Quesadillas with Black Beans, Broccoli, and Portobello Mushrooms from Vegan Express (sorry, no photograph). This was a lovely combination of flavors, especially when topped with the Instant Roasted Red Pepper Sauce (also from Vegan Express). Served with some tortilla chips, salsa, and fruit, this was a mighty filling meal.
I also made cookies. Awhile back, I tried to start my own vegan cookie company called…Cookie Addict (see a pattern?!). But, I lost motivation and I am a terrible self-promoter, so that idea soon fizzled away. Being an avid baker, I still make the cookies I had planned on selling. These particular cookies are called Lemon Zingers. I created these when my cookie-muncher-of-a-boyfriend demanded (oh so politely) a lemony cookie. They are topped with a lemony icing and are crazy lemony all the way through. I think they taste equally great without the icing, but the cookie-muncher says "If they don't have the icing, they aren't Lemon Zingers." With that said, please try this recipe and let me know how they turn out for you.
Lemon Zingers
1/2 cup Earth Balance (or other vegan margarine), softened
3/4 cup unrefined sugar
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1 egg replaced (I use Ener'G Egg Replacer)
1/4 teaspoon lemon extract
Zest and juice from one small lemon
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
Preheat your oven to 350 degrees. Beat the margarine and sugar until fluffy. Add your replaced egg and extracts. Blend some more (a stand mixer or hand mixer work well here). Add lemon juice and zest. Beat some more. In a small bowl, sift together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Combine the two mixtures and beat until a nice dough forms. I use a 1 1/2 tablespoon-sized cookie scoop to drop these onto a cookie sheet lined with parchment. Bake for about 9-11 minutes. My oven is temperamental, so keep an eye on yours!
For the icing, whisk together 1 cup of powdered sugar, 2 tablespoons of lemon juice, and 1/2 teaspoon of vanilla extract. I always add some extra lemon zest, so you can too. Spoon a small amount of icing onto cooled cookies, and spread to cover cookie top. Eat and be happy. These are LEMONY.
