INGLEWOOD, Calif. (December 5, 2012)—Executiveprivilege will try for her third Grade I win of 2012 when she takes on seven other 2-year-old fillies in the $500,000-guaranteed Hollywood Starlet Saturday at Betfair Hollywood Park.
Scheduled at 1 1/16 miles over Cushion Track, the Starlet is the richer of two graded stakes to be offered on the next-to-last Saturday of the Autumn meet. Older fillies and mares will get together in the $200,000 Bayakoa Stakes. A Grade II, the Bayakoa, which is presented by the Oak Tree Racing Association, will also be run at 1 1/16 miles over Cushion Track.
The 32nd Bayakoa goes as the sixth of 10 races while the Starlet is the ninth. Post time is 12:30 p.m. Track gates at Betfair Hollywood Park will open at 10 a.m. for simulcasts.
Every Saturday during the Autumn season features a Pick Six pool that is guaranteed at $150,000. If the pool exceeds $200,000, $1 food and drink Happy Hour specials will be available at Whittingham's Pub. The average pool size through the first four weeks of the season was $229,989.
Additionally, a single winning Pick Six ticket –purchased either at Betfair Hollywood Park or through Television Games Network (TVG) – will earn a bonus – a 2013 Toyota Prius courtesy of Toyota of Orange.
Owned by Mike Pegram, Karl Watson and Paul Weitman and trained by Hall of Famer, Executiveprivilege suffered her first defeat – after five wins – when second, one length behind Beholder, in the Grade I Breeders' Cup Juvenile Fillies Nov. 2.
If successful Saturday, the daughter of First Samurai and the Unaccounted For mare Refugee would become the lone 2-year-old filly in the country with three Grade I wins – she has already captured the Del Mar Debutante and Chandelier Stakes at Santa Anita – and strengthen her case for an Eclipse Award as champion of the division.
An earner of $900,000, Executiveprivilege could provide Baffert with his third Starlet victory, following Excellent Meeting (1998) and Habibti (2001).
Hall of Fame jockey Mike Smith, who replaced Rafael Bejarano on Game On Dude for last weekend's victory in the Native Diver Stakes, will take over on Executiveprivilege as the filly tries to emulate Killer Graces, who won both the Landaluce and Starlet in 2011.
Baffert will also be represented by impressive first out winner Blonde Fog.
Owned by Pegram and Mark DeDomenico LLC, the Divine Park filly out of the Eltish mare Betty's Solutions won by 12 ½ lengths at the Starlet distance Oct. 28 at Santa Anita. The win was worth $28,200.

The daughter of Empire Maker and the Rajab mare Miss Excitement has won two of eight and earned $207,120. One of her wins came in the Cinderella Stakes June 16 in her second career outing.
Miller is also scheduled to start Rhodium. Owned by a partnership that includes Roncelli Family Trust, David Bernsen and Wire to Wire To Wire Stables, the gray daughter of Flashy Bull and the Swiss Yodeler mare Rockin On has won once in six attempts and earned $44,230.
Midnight Ballet, the upset winner of the Sharp Cat – at the Starlet distance – Nov. 11 in her first Cushion Track attempt, will be seeking her third win in four races for Stoneway Farm LLC and trainer Tom Proctor. The Midnight Lute filly out of the Unbridled's Song mare Buzz Song has earned $103,000.
Scarlet Strike will try to rebound after finishing third at 4-5 in the Sharp Cat. Owned by John Carver, Green Smith and Hall of Fame trainer Jerry Hollendorfer, the daughter of Smart Strike and the French Deputy mare Scarlet Tango is 1-for-5 with earnings of $124,240.
The Kentucky bred finished second in the Chandelier prior to her 1 ¼ length defeat in the Sharp Cat.
Second at 11-1 in the Sharp Cat, Renee's Titan will be trying for her second victory at Betfair Hollywood Park.
Owned by Zillah Reddam and trained by Doug O'Neill, the Bernstein filly out of the Tiznow mare Titan Queen has won once in five tries and earned $55,400. She broke her maiden against $50,000 claimers by 4 ½ lengths in her career debut June 21. She was purchased privately after that race by her current connections from owner-breeder John Liviakis and trainer Melody Conlon.
Supplemented to the Starlet at a cost of $10,000 – with an additional $10,000 to start – Pure Fun ships to California for Susan McPeek's Magdalena Racing and trainer Ken McPeek. The Pure Prize filly out of the Key to the Mint mare Chelsea Green has won two seven and earned $83,599. She won an optional claimer by 9 ¼ lengths Nov. 24 at Churchill Downs.

Trained by Josie Carroll for Donver Stable, the 4-year-old Hennessy filly out of the Smart Strike mare Noble Strike has won five of 12 and earned $1,378,751.
Victorious in five of six races over synthetic surfaces, Inglorious has been idle since finishing third in the Grade II Dance Smartly July 8 at Woodbine. Her biggest win came in the 2011 Queen's Plate, the first leg of the Canadian Triple Crown.
Hollendorfer, who won the 2010 Bayakoa with Washington Bridge, will try for another with Lady of Fifty.
Co-owned by Hollendorfer and George Todaro, the daughter of After Market and the Maria's Mon mare K.D.'s Shady Lady has won five of 10 and banked $210,000. The gray will be making her first start at Betfair Hollywood Park. She will try to become the 14th 3-year-old to win the Bayakoa. The most recent was the aforementioned Washington Bridge.
Another Hall of Fame trainer – Ron McAnally – will be represented by Charm the Maker as he seeks a record-tying fifth win in the race. John Shirreffs is the current record holder, establishing the mark with Zardana in 2009.
Bred and owned by McAnally and his wife Debbie, Charm the Maker has won two of nine and earned $250,040. The 3-year-old Empire Maker filly out of the Giant's Causeway mare Charm the Giant has lost six in a row since winning the 2011 Sharp Cat.
Three of McAnally's wins in this race came when it was known as the Silver Belles Handicap – Happy Guess (1981), Paseana (1991) and Brought to Mind (1992). He won the 1996 Bayakoa with Listening.
A double graded stakes winner in 2012, Willa B Awesome stretches out again after finishing third in the Cat's Cradle Handicap Nov. 18.
Trained by Walther Solis for a partnership that includes Phil Daniels, Patsy London, John Winters and breeder Terry Lovingier, Willa B Awesome has won five of 17 and earned $624,896.

Looking for a bow for a friend thats 6'6". He's shot before and I am trying to recuit new members into the archery community, last 2 years, I've got 3 of my old gun hunting and shooting buds flinging arrows. I am thinking the Pantera in a 60wt peak cause of the 34" draw length. Again I firmly believe Martin has some of the best bows to get into archery with. Give me some thoughts you tall guys on either bow.

Blu Dot was founded by John Christakos, Charles Lazor and Maurice Blanks. The firm began as a loose collaborative of three college friends trained in architecture and art, based on the premise that design should be affordable. The partners chose furniture as the subject of interest and opened a studio and operations in Minneapolis in 1996.
Blu Dot has begun to realize their vision with a collection of over 40 pieces that are both elegantly abstract and unambiguously functional. Blu Dot pieces are in the permanent collections of several museums, have been seen on the sets of well-known television shows such as Friends and ER, and have won numerous national and international awards.
An unassuming take on the everyday side chair - good proportions, nice materials and a great price. Choose from technical white oak, ebony, graphite-on-oak, and ivory on a chrome-plated base. Stackable. Enjoy. Enjoy.
As if Chair Chair weren't already perfect perfect, now you can accessorize it with a dash of color. Lightly padded, woven-felt covers slip on but don't slip off. Available in aqua, wheat and charcoal. Also for Stool Stool.

I'm the kind of girl who tries to watch scary movies- but fails miserably. In love with a partner who has earnt her trust and respect. Knows the difference between making a living- and making a life. Wants to wake up next to chard everyday, forever. Hates being late, but so often is. Believes in luck- the harder you work, the more luck you get. Loves spicy food. Hopes to travel the world one day. Loyal friend. Laughs to loud. Talks to much. Believes in learning the rules- and breaking them .Enjoys small victories in life. Answers to the nickname "iya". Irritated by fake personalities. Confused by maths subjects. Promises to get fit…then doesn't. Frets when away from chard for too long. Hopeless at saving, but tries nonetheless. Habitually does assignments on the day they are due- and each time claims that it will be the last. Loves the feeling of her perfectly applied makeup.

Women's Cotton Tank Tops (Pkg. of 3) 26 26
comfy These tank tops are comfortable, did not shrink when washed and dried, and light weight but warm. I will be ordering more. April 10, 2014
LOVE These Shirts: Fit, Material, and Style I have been looking to find undershirts to replace an organic cotton undershirt I bought at least a decade ago. (The shirt has multiple holes, but I so love it that I keep wearing it.) Although these shirts are not made from organic cotton, I do love the way they fit and the fact that the cotton is ribbed. I am usually a size small, bra size 34D, but ordered the medium which fits very well. Also, I really like that these shirts are made in the US. I would highly recommend this 3-pack and also the others that are offered (long sleeve and short sleeve). March 10, 2014
shrinkage "Second skin" is ultimate warmth, but the sizing is small, tight underarms, shrinks a size with first washing February 25, 2014
Just the right thickness I am pleased with these tank tops. They're just right to wear as an extra lightweight layer under a sweater or shirt. I would have preferred a lower neckline so it doesn't show though. February 24, 2014
Simply perfect! I'd given up hope of every finding "under tanks" that were 100% cotton, long and made in the USA. I love these! I followed the suggestion of another happy reviewer - order up a size. They are body fit and make the perfect first layer. Thanks, Vermont Country Store! February 12, 2014
2X is not what 2X used to be I ordered the size still visible of my last purchase of this product. I have not gained weight...in fact since October 2013 surgery am a few pounds lighter...but these are too snug... I am wearing the first three in the package I opened and will not open the second package to see if they will stretch out...did not have to have that concern with my first purchase of these. February 7, 2014
Real clothing These shirts are great. It seems like everything out there nowadays looks like rags. Disposable clothing if you will. Not these shirts. Look great, feel great, all cotton, made in USA. What more could you want! February 1, 2014
MADE IN USA it's so hard to find WOMEN'S clothing made in USA and impossible in undergarments. The cotton is soft, thick and does not have a strange odor than many overseas cotton has. Tanks tend to run small so i had to buy several sizes larger than normal for a comfortable, loose fit as I'm a 34-DDD; so 2XL worked great for me. I will be ordering more so thank you Vermont Country Store for providing made in the USA products by Americans! January 4, 2014

West Elm Holiday Collection by David Stark & West Elm
Next week — October, 5th — West Elm officially launches the first phase of their Holiday & Entertaining collection for 2010. I viewed this collection over the summer in the West Elm offices in Brooklyn and am excited to share the amazing displays of the products from David Stark and the West Elm team. The 2010 holiday collection — larger than ever — includes an assortment of artfully crafted miniature trees, ornaments, garlands, various wreaths, minimalist nutcrackers, party favors, tabletop, dinnerware, home scents and a wide variety of gifts and decorative items. Check it out:
David Stark's displays brought this collection to life — the kelly green walls combined with mostly-neutral and natural colors was key. The textural use of paper, cardboard and newsprint gives the collection an appreciated depth and richness.
- Miniature Trees & Topiary — whether crafted from paper, sticks or wood, all of the miniature trees are super chic and most are appropriate for year-round decorative use.
- Minimalist Nutcrackers — available in mulitple sizes and white and natural finishes, these soldiers are elegant and cool.
- Cork Tableware — classic and naturally beautiful.

I LOVE to decorate for Christmas!! I usually use all white.
I'm trying to practice my Gram's advice that if I can't say something nice, I shouldn't say anything....
It looks like might have some really cute stuff in there, but for me the whole thing gets completely lost against the green wall - I know it's supposed to be festive, but to me it just looks like a green screen they haven't gotten around to chroma-keying out. Wondering what they're going to insert into the background is really distracting.
They have some of these on the website already and I am DROOLING over them. They are all going on my amazon wishlist pronto.
I manage to love the least Christmas-ey thing on their. The clock!
@Scarlet Tentacle: I had the exact same thought.
That green is disgusting; and way too many of the items look too homemade (ie grade school projects). Plus the recycled print is used too much, and everything just washes away.
I like the plates, but I think my kids could probably create the ornaments just as well
Sounds like the green wall was their office. I saw some of this stuff in store and it's amazing.
Amazing is not the word I would use. Although maybe amazingly ugly.
I like the white tree, but pretty much HATE everything else, most especially that whole fireplace vignette. I thought it was for Halloween, it's so drap and gloomy. Geez -- if I had to use this stuff, I'd simply give up and kill myself! SOOO depressing!
Good Lord, if this is someone's idea of High Style, it's gonna be a depressing Christmas this year...
Good lord people. Who said it's high style?? And how do you HATE everything else? A simple white Nutcracker is suddenly offensive?? You people are ridiculous. The few new things Ive seen in person at West Elm look really great and am glad they are finally doing more than just furniture.
Okay DAVID STARK, you bored the heck out of me last year with those depressing cardboard holiday items (the six foot tall cardboard cone was enough to stomach), now your using news paper images...AAhhh, GROUND BREAKING. The paper shade and garland? What was that all about? LOL. West Elms first phase of holiday? LMAO. Not one item was unique nor exciting enough for me to wait until the second, third or tenth phase..LOL. What part of West Elms decor is high style to say the least? The photo layout of the fireplace was absolutely cheesy...LOL. No area was worth looking at the tiny thumb nail images of STUFF. Really now, being in the design biz gives me access to Dollar Store items all the way to Bloomy's exclusive bling. If you folks walk over to Kmart, checkout Martha Stewarts amazing holiday decor..YES KMART. I need a paper FIRE hazardous tea light candle shade. Can ya direct me in the right direction...LMAO.
Sept 29th and I'm still dealing with temps hovering around 107 degrees,its a little difficult to think about Christmas decor and this decor certainly doesn't help.
This reminds me of the aftermath of a fire... the mantel looks scorched! Unfinished and not festive. To each is own though.
I'm a pretty big Christmas fanatic, but I'm disappointed by most of the stuff featured here. The styling isn't helping though. So perhaps the actual pieces look nice in real life when viewed away from the messy set-up in these shots.
Something about the logs and fire strikes me as hilarious. I think I'd get a kick out of it.
A lot of the paper items seem like easy DIY if someone was so inclined. The garland's giving me some ideas.
I like it. I find it inspiring.
These are Christmas decorations for people who abhor the overhyped consumerist wastefulness of Christmas. Subtle, textural, simple. At least that's my take on them.
@unabridged - I absolutely agree. I think this take on Christmas decor is refreshing.
And yes, guys, a lot of it is stuff the more talented among us, with plenty of time on our hands, could make at home... but I think we're being a bit delusional to think our kids could make stuff this good (and if they could, man, you guys have some talented kids)... and maybe instead of complaining you could make this stuff yourself, you could just, I don't know, make it yourself. It's not like West Elm's the only store selling DIY at a high price.
Sign me up for a white nutcracker. I'll take some chevron plates and the mushroom ones while I'm at it.
While I don't LOVE every piece in the collection, I appreciate the sentiment that everything doesn't have to be covered in sparkle to be festive. The restraint feels fresh to me.

Metcalfe on Ethernets lessons, unsung heros
Rick Merritt, SiliconValley Bureau Chief
6 comments post a comment
6 comments post a comment
Theres an army of unsung engineers who helped invent Ethernet, says Bob Metcalfe, taking a long drag on his cigarette as he ruminates about the now ubiquitous network technology he described in a memo to colleagues at Xerox PARC on May 22, 1973.
As the smoke curls around his head some of the names and the stories begin to emerge from the distant past. The first is David Boggs, a Stanford grad student who in 1973 was working in the next lab over from Metcalfe at PARC.
Click on image to enlarge.
David BoggsBoggs noticed I had trouble skinning and soldering connectors at end of cables and offered to help because it was something he was good at, Metcalfe recalls.
By 1976 the two men along with another lab partner, Tat Lam, created the first prototype of what was to become Ethernet, a 2.94 Mbit/second link over a coaxial cable.

Ethernet 3 Mbit/s prototype
Lam was an analog engineer working on a bit-mapped display in the same basement of Building 34 as Metcalfe and Boggs. He helped create the transceiver for the prototype. Later Tam created a company that sold Ethernet transceivers and bore his initials, TCL, before disappearing from Metcalfes sight like so much cigarette smoke.
Note: Bob Metcalfe says he does not smoke and never has. The interview was conducted via phone and the reporter mistakenly thought he heard sounds of smoking.

Sign up for a Crutchfield account Overview Details Customer Reviews Q&A Articles & Videos Accessories Our take on the Definitive Technology DI 5.5BPS by Tara W. Get great surround effects from your favorite movies with Definitive Technology's DI 5.5BPS bipolar speaker. This speaker installs flush in your wall, and can blend seamlessly into almost any décor. With its paintable, low-profile grille and hidden flange, it's practically invisible. Bipolar design gives you a wide rear soundstage Each driver array consists of one 5-1/2" midrange paired with a 1" dome tweeter, for balanced, smoothly blended highs, mids, and lows. Bipolar technology is superb for surround speakers — it spreads the surround effects across the back of your room, giving you more spacious, realistic sound. This gives you the flexibility to install the speaker in places that are less than ideal for a conventional surround speaker. Building a system You can use the DI 5.5BPS as the surround speakers in a multi-room music system, or in a home theater system. It's voice-matched with Definitive Technology's Mythos and Bipolar speaker lines, so you can mix and match. An optional Definitive Technology DI 5.5DPS rough-in bracket is recommended for installing this speaker in new construction (brackets sold in pairs). Got wire? Most speakers don't include any. Learn more about in-wall wiring at the Crutchfield Learning Center. Shop our selection of in-wall speaker wire. Did you know? Your new speakers will probably sound better after several weeks of use than they do right out of the box. That's because the material surrounding the woofers will loosen up, allowing the drivers to move more fully. Definitive Technology estimates a break-in period of 24 to 48 hours of playback before the speakers will deliver optimum sound quality.

We stay on top of new products and technologies to help people make informed choices. Overview: The Definitive Technology Disappearing In-Wall loudspeaker (DI Series) offers high-quality sound from a speaker that is barely visible when installed in a wall. The Definitive DI Series incorporates two BDSS drivers, dual pivoting tweeters, and integrated flanges behind an unobtrusive grille to provide audiophile-grade sound quality with an almost invisible appearance. Features Mounting Options Features Bipolar Surround In-Wall Loudspeaker: The Definitive Technology DI 5.5BPS offers Bipolar sound dispersion which is ideal for side or rear surround channel applications, or anywhere extremely broad sound coverage is desired. Disappearing In-Wall Design: The DI 5.5BPS features Definitive Technology's Disappearing In-Wall Design. The mounting flange thickness of the in-wall loudspeaker is no more than 2.5mm (0.099") and is completely covered by the grille that stands a mere 4.0mm (approx 0.165") from the wall surface. The grille is "micro-perf", that while presenting an opaque appearance, actually has more open area than typical perforated metal grilles allowing the sound to pass through with less interference and better fidelity. Behind the metal grille is an acoustically transparent proprietary cloth scrim that effectively blacks the dark "shadow" of the black speaker parts from showing through the grille. Pivoting Aluminum Dome Tweeter with Waveguide: The DI Series in-wall loudspeaker uses two Definitive Technology's proprietary ceramic-coated annealed aluminum 1" dome tweeters. The DI 5.5BPS tweeters are post mounted, and the tweeter housing is specially smoothed and shaped to use it as an extremely effective low-diffraction waveguide. The aluminum dome tweeter features a pivoting design which allows you to focus the sound toward or away from your listening area depending on the application. BDSS Drivers: The DI 5.5BPS uses dual 5.25" BDSS drivers for wide-bandwidth accurate frequency response, broad dispersion, low distortion, and maximum detail retrieval. The 5.25" BDSS driver cones are supported by specially tuned soft rubber surrounds at both the outer and inner edges. The double surrounds allow the cone to have longer excursion without distortion. As bass output is a function of both a cone's diameter and excursion, the higher excursion BDSS system brings the benefit of higher bass output from smaller drivers. The DI 5.5BPS's dual 5.25" BDSS drivers have the bass output and dynamic range of a typical 8.0" driver. Linkwitz-Riley Crossover Network: The Definitive Technology DI 5.5BPS's second order (12dB/octave) Linkwitz-Riley crossover offers a smooth frequency and phase transition from driver to tweeter for natural midrange response and excellent off-axis performance. A Zobel network flattens the impedance curve of the speaker making it easier for today's digital amplifiers to drive the speakers. Custom tight-tolerance (+/- 5%) components are used throughout the crossover for superb unit-to-unit performance consistency. Superior metal film capacitors are used in the high-pass section and the Zobel network for extended high frequency response. Oversize inductors (coils) avoid saturation thereby maintaining the wide dynamic range capabilities of the driver. Environmental EQ: The Environmental EQ switch (on top-frame of speaker) provides a 1dB broad bandwidth tweeter output lift or cut to compensate for highly absorptive or reflective acoustic environments. AeroRing: The dimpled AeroRing is soft Sanoprene rubber and serves several important functions. First, it damps the basket/flange assembly nearest its thinnest part (the flange) to prevent resonance. Second it prevents the grille from rattling in the unlikely event that it makes contact with the speaker frame. It also provides a smooth transition for the waveform coming off the cone. Similar to the dimples on a golf ball that reduce turbulence to aid in longer flight, the dimples on the AeroRing promote smooth "laminar" air flow over the surface thereby reducing diffraction effects. The DI Series in-wall loudspeakers sound clear, natural, and disperse their sound over a wide area. PolyStone Basket: The driver basket, mounting flange, and mounting system of the DI 5.5BPS is one piece of cast PolyStone; Definitive's exclusive formulation of polymers and minerals that combine the rigidity and strength of metal with the resonance damping properties of plastics. As a result of the one-piece mounting system, the DI 5.5BPS offers increased strength, a compact size, and maximized cone area. Besides being more space efficient than multi-piece construction, it also contributes to the superior sound quality of the DI Series speakers. Connections: The DI 5.5BPS features a pair of heavy-duty, gold-plated, spring-loaded wire terminals that have oversized holes to accept up to 10 gauge wire. Definitive's GaussGrip System: Definitive's GaussGrip system securely holds the grille of the in-wall loudspeaker in place with powerful magnets. Simply lay the grille over the speaker and its secure. Taking off the grille is just as easy and fast; no special tools that can chip the grille paint are required. All you need to remove the grille is your fingers. Paintable Grille: The DI Series in-wall loudspeaker's white "micro-perf" cloth grille can be spray painted to match the color of your wall or ceiling without any loss of sound quality. Simply remove the grille from the speaker and place it on a drop cloth, newspaper, or plastic sheet and spray paint it with canned spray paint that closely matches the desired finish/color; or with indoor latex paint using an airbrush or spray gun (available at home improvement stores). The paint must be diluted to a 6:1 ratio of latex paint to water. Do not remove the backing cloth (scrim). Apply the paint in a series of thin coats sprayed at 45-60 degrees from the grille surface, allowing each coat to fully cure before applying additional coats. To ensure that the paint distribution is evenly applied, each coat should be applied from 4 different directions (N, S, E,W) to ensure an even coverage on the grille. Note: The grille must be spray painted detached from the speaker. Do not paint the grille with a brush or roller. Mounting Options Mounting: The DI 5.5BPS can be mounted in-wall using the integrated rotating clamps and four mounting screws, or using an optional pre-construction bracket (7355BPSRIK, sold separately). A cutout template is supplied to help you cut a 6-13/16" wide x 12-5/8" tall hole. You will need to allow at least 1/2" of space around the cutout and have at least 3-3/8" of clearance for mounting depth (using 1/2" thick mounting surface). You should allow at least 7/8" from the edge of the cutout to nearest obstruction inside the mounting surface. Optional Pre-Construction (Rough-In) Brackets: The optional DI Series pre-construction rough-in brackets (7355BPSRIK, sold separately) provide a simple way to mount these in-wall loudspeaker during pre-construction or remodeling of your home. The center rings are fabricated from heavy duty painted stamped steel. There are no sharp metal edges to cut an installer's hands and they are ultra rigid, so that when drywall is laid over and cut the brackets will not bend or break. The two 12" wings are painted perforated metal that snap onto the center ring in a variety of positions to cover almost any installation. The wings can be attached with nails, staples or screws; and can be bent and easily trimmed with tin snips. They are also thin enough to make stud notching simple. The wire tie loop easily breaks away when the speaker is installed. DI Rough-in Brackets are packaged two to a carton.

At the World Cup kick-off in Albstadt (Germany) the BMC Mountainbike Racing Team presented a strong overall performance. But since Absalon had to quit the race due to a mechanical problem, the team missed its first World Cup victory of the year. Lukas Flückiger was fifth, Martin Fanger's sixth place was a very welcome surprise.
Albstadt was set to be the stage for a great Absalon show. Unfortunately the show came to a sudden end after five out of seven rounds. The two-time Olympic champion from France delivered a great performance and outclassed his competitors. He was 1:45 minutes in the lead when - due to the muddy and sticky conditions - suddenly the rear derailleur of his bike was torn off. Since there was no chance to get it fixed, Absalon had to quit the race.
"I completely controlled the race. Honestly, it's been four years since I last was in such a position. Right before it came to the incident, I was already dreaming of my first win for BMC, the leader's jersey and my 26th World Cup victory. It's so frustrating, for me and for the whole team. Now I have to make the dream come true in Nove Mesto," said Julien Absalon. Due to his bad luck the team also missed to get first place in the team standings.
Lukas Flückiger was the best BMC biker of the day. However, he was a bit angry about his fifth place. "If Julien has to quit it is my duty to win a race in such conditions. My legs were fine, but today I got weird breathing problems: I simply was not able to pump enough air into my lungs. Therefore I was not able to achieve more than high basic speed," said Flückiger, who, on the penultimate lap, had still been within striking distance of Daniel McConnell, the later surprise winner.
Martin Fanger also managed to achieve a big surprise. He had a good start into the race and was ranked between ten and 15. In the last third of the race he still had enough energy left to catapult himself into sixth position. Sixth place is his best World Cup result so far. "I am very, very happy. On Wednesday I had a very good training session. Therefore I knew that I'm in good shape. Top 15 was my goal, but sixth is fantastic," said Fanger.
European champion Moritz Milatz could not start due to an infection. After his hand surgery, sprint world champion Ralph Naef is on the way to recovery, but he is not yet ready for World Cup racing.

Ecotourism has come a long way in the last 20 years – once regarded as irrelevant, it is now one of the most important factors people give when choosing a holiday or a trip. The effect of international travel, especially air travel, has been well documented and is now taken very seriously right across Europe. In addition each country has taken steps to ensure its outstanding areas of natural beauty remain so, with restrictions on numbers of visitors and areas which can be explored.
You want to experience typical tasty, healthy, seasonal regional food, stay in family-run traditional or innovative accommodation in Europe, travel in an environmentally-friendly and socially responsible way - and pay fair prices to enjoy an exceptional travel experience?
That's what Sustainable Tourism is all about. Many environmental measures in hotels, bed & breakfast establishments or camping sites take place behind the scenes: for example, water conservation, energy-saving light bulbs, environmentally-friendly cleaning materials as well as recycling.
Other measures in the destinations actively involve you as a visitor to the city or countryside, the coastal or mountain destination: visitors' tickets for public transport, information about the local environment, environmentally-friendly leisure activities and typical regional dishes made from local produce give you the choice.
If you want to experience Europe at its best, to help make your contribution towards sustainable development at your holiday destination, and to come back home with a smile – here are some suggestions:
Get in the know:
Do some research beforehand to give you a better overview of the richness and diversity of sustainable tourism product in your country of interest before you start: special sites on the Internet and travel magazines can help inform you about the various offers from tour operators, accommodation businesses, destinations, attractions as well as activities in summer and winter.
Information services for travellers:
The most effective way to fully protect nature and conserve it is through planned protection measures organised at state level. The amount of Italian territory is 10%. Environmental protection laws have allowed many nature parks and reserves the openings of which are used solely for developing nature in all forms. In the Italian parks and nature reserves, therefore, not only are the animals untouchable but also the plants, minerals and water supplies.
Italy has 21 National Parks, 99 Regional Parks, 332 Regional Reserves, 145 State Reserves, 47 Marsh reserves and 17 Marine Reserves, which are protected zones managed either by the State in some form - Regional Councils, Provincial Councils and Municipalities - or by the environmental and protection associations such as Italia Nostra, WWF, Lega Ambiente, Greenpeace, LIPU, Touring Club, etc.

Dr. Rajiv Shah serves as the 16th Administrator of USAID and leads the efforts of more than 9,600 professionals in 80 missions around the world.
Since being sworn in on Dec. 31, 2009, Shah managed the U.S. Government's response to the devastating 2010 earthquake in Port-au-Prince, Haiti; co-chaired the State Department's first review of American diplomacy and development operations; and now spearheads President Barack Obama's landmark Feed the Future food security initiative. He is also leading "USAID Forward," an extensive set of reforms to USAID's business model focusing on seven key areas, including procurement, science & technology, and monitoring & evaluation.
Before becoming USAID's Administrator, Shah served as undersecretary for research, education and economics, and as chief scientist at the U.S. Department of Agriculture. At USDA, he launched the National Institute of Food and Agriculture, which significantly elevated the status and funding of agricultural research.
Prior to joining the Obama administration, Shah served for seven years with the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, including as director of agricultural development in the Global Development Program, and as director of strategic opportunities.
Originally from Detroit, Shah earned his medical degree from the University of Pennsylvania Medical School and his master's in health economics from the Wharton School of Business. He attended the London School of Economics and is a graduate of the University of Michigan.
Shah is married to Shivam Mallick Shah and is the father of three children. He lives in Washington, D.C.
Programs like today's Annual Meeting permit us to celebrate our successes. Indeed, the last two decades have been a validation of our work. There has been more progress in global development since the end of the Cold War than in any time in history. In the decade and a half since the mid-90s, real incomes have risen 60 percent across developing countries, infant mortality rates have plunged by a third, and primary school enrollment rates jumped nearly 15 percent.
The truth is—you are part of an incredible generation of young people. On campuses across the country and the world, you're expressing a surge of interest in tackling global challenges, oversubscribing courses on public health, international education, global politics and development economics. And at USAID, we are working hard to support and engage this enthusiasm.
That is why it is my honor and privilege today to announce the Payne Fellowship Program, an extraordinary program that will honor the memory of Congressman Payne by supporting the next generation of leaders in global development. With two fellowships valued at up to $45,000 annually for two years, the program will provide opportunities throughout the students' graduate studies, including two summer internships—the first working on international issues for a member of Congress and the second with an USAID mission overseas.; as well as consistent and supportive mentoring throughout the fellowship program and into early employment.
It's a great pleasure and honor to be here to participate in the launch of a major new area of cooperation among the federal and regional ministries of health, the Ministry of Education, training institutions and USAID to strengthen human resources for health.
HANOI -- It is a great honor for me to be here on behalf of the U.S. Government and USAID to join you in opening this 8th Annual National Conference of Vietnam Public Health Association today.
Public health represents a major part of the United States Agency for International Development's global programs and we continue to be privileged to work with you here in Vietnam to address significant existing, emerging and re-emerging public health issues.
I plan to discuss today an approach to meeting food and health needs through the water programs developed and implemented by USAID and its partners. This approach is reflective of USAID's effort, known as USAID Forward, to make the Agency more effective by changing the way we partner with others, embracing a spirit of innovation and strengthening the results of our work.
More specifically, I would like to cover how we utilize a certain set of tools and approaches, catalysts if you will, which we believe will provoke speed and action towards the overarching goal of saving and improving lives. These tools are derived from open source based development, partnerships and finance, science and technology, integrated programming and resilience and scale. They all help catalyze the development and implementation of solutions. Unsdersocring these toos is the enagagment and empowerment of women throughout our water programs.
At USAID, we have an expression: If you want to change the world, invest in a girl. If a girl stays in school, remains healthy, gains real skills, and is safe from sexual and other physical abuse, she will marry later, have fewer but healthier children, earn a higher income that she will invest back into her family, and she will break the cycle of poverty in her family and her community.
She'll use her education to increase agricultural production, improve health conditions for her family, adapt better to natural disasters and droughts, and serve as a leader to resolve local and national and even international conflicts.
This isn't theory: It is fact. Let me cite just one statistic: In Africa, most young girls are likely to become farmers—if we could guarantee that these girls and women had access to the same level of education, credit, entrepreneurship and other inputs that men have, it would increase agricultural production by 30 percent and feed 150 million people worldwide each year.
Two weeks ago, during the week of the U.N. General Assembly, President Obama spoke at the Clinton Global Initiative about the need to fight human trafficking, calling it on of the great human rights struggles of our time. "Everyone has a responsibility," he said. "Everyone can take action." Today, to help answer the President's call, it is my honor to announce USAID's Counter-Trafficking Campus Challenge: A unique competition that is expressly designed for students on campuses across the United States and around the world to generate cutting-edge ideas and new technologies to combat one of humanity's greatest challenges.
As President Obama said, "We're turning the table on the traffickers. Just as they are now using technology and the Internet to exploit their victims, we're going to harness technology to stop them." The challenge has several phases—and the first one begins today, as we encourage students to come together online at the new www.challengeslavery.org website to discuss the challenge and identify potential barriers to success.
Development attracts many of the best students, brightest minds and strongest spirits. Open-source development can help keep all of us inspired by offering the true reward of being successful—combining productivity with meaning.
When you bring your expertise, your ideas, your ingenuity to the task; when you can see that something you're learning in a classroom is helping communities to withstand natural disasters, or when you commit yourself to a career in the service of others—those are deeply rewarding results for you—and millions of people everywhere.
Today we celebrate the historic partnership between the United States of America and the Republic of Malawi. At this ceremony we mark the signing of bi-lateral agreements between The United States Agency for International Development and Malawi's Ministry of Finance and Development Planning for programs in education, health, economic growth, democracy and good governance. This cooperation is implemented through NGOs, international organizations and Government of Malawi partnerships that support Malawi's own development priorities.
For more than 50 years we have worked together for the good of all Malawians. Throughout Malawi's recent history I am proud to say that the United States has remained a steadfast partner as the largest overall donor.
Looking around the room, it's clear that our university's commitment to serving our nation and all nations has not changed one bit since John F. Kennedy's legendary visit in 1960. President Kennedy's impromptu remarks that day on the steps of the Michigan Union challenged students to give two years of their lives to help people in the developing world.
He inspired a movement on campus that led to one the most remarkable service projects in American history, the Peace Corps. That was over fifty years ago. Before the Foreign Assistance Act, before even the U.S. Agency for International Development, there was you.
Since then, the University of Michigan and the Ford School of Public Service have embraced their role as leaders in the global effort to tackle the greatest challenges of our time. You are the number four all-time contributor to Peace Corps, with a total of more than 2,450 volunteers since 1961.

Many good points above.
I recently changed my Hoyt CRX 32 to Martin Onza 3 so I may have something to say I just hated the fuel cams of Hoyt - and if the one you are looking for has RKT cams, they are not much different: even though the cams are smooth otherwise, the transition to let-off is abrupt, thus it is hard to draw smoothly all the way back. And if you relax just a little and let it creep just a little bit in full draw, the cams roll over without warning. I have seen several accidential shots because of this (including myself). The danger is especially high when hunting or training for hunting, when you often cannot use the basic posture for shooting. I thought I would get used to Hoyts cams but after 4 months I gave up. And I have seen guys with years of ownership to struggle with them still.
I can't understand why Hoyt brings basically the same cam system to the market year after year, without making significant improvements. XTR, Fuel or RKT cams - there really is no difference. Onza 3 makes me smile every time I shoot it - with Nitro cams, it is a pleasure to draw and shoot and it is STABLE in full draw - even if you relax a little. I would never change it back to the Hoyt I had.
My Onza 3 was relatively loud (cams in sync) but installing slipjax to the strings made a huge difference (I even measured it with a dB meter). It is still somewhat louder than Hoyt CRX, but no longer matters to me.
Many new Hoyts are difficult to tune for broadheads. Tuning involves working with cable yokes - the bow may not respond to tuning the arrow rest location sideways. Same is true for some Bowtechs such as Invasion CPXL. No such problem with Onza 3, which obeys traditional tuning methods.
So I have no experience about Silencer, but if you are serious about Hoyt, you should at least carefully test one before purchase.

NYU seeks talented students from every corner of the globe. Each applicant is expected to demonstrate his/her talents and mastery of subject matter to support his/her applications and to marshal his/her best case for admission to NYU. As a result, NYU has one of the most flexible testing policies of any college or university.
To be eligible for admission, applicants are expected to submit results from one of the following testing options:
The NYU Code for the SAT, SAT Subject Test, AP, and TOEFL is 2562.
The NYU Code for the ACT is 2838.
We recommend that in the spirit of marshalling your best case for admission, you choose which examination(s) you want our admissions committees to review in the evaluation process. If you feel one type of examination positions you more favorably, submit only that examination - as long as the results you submit meet our standardized testing requirements. You do not have to submit multiple test types and should only do so if you want us to review additional examination results. All examinations are considered equally and you will not be placed at a disadvantage if you do not send SAT/ACT testing.
With regard to the SAT specifically, NYU participates in Score Choice, which enables you to elect which tests you want to send to NYU. If you do take the SAT multiple times, rest assured that we will only review the highest Critical Reading, the highest Math, and the highest Writing score you submit - regardless of test dates - creating the highest possible composite score for you in our evaluation process. For the ACT, we will review the highest composite ACT score with Writing - regardless of test dates.
In addition to SAT, ACT, and IB results, we are pleased to consider a wide range of regional and national examinations to fulfill an applicant's standardized testing requirement. The list below is not exhaustive, and will be updated as new examinations are approved. You should not assume that any examinations will meet our testing requirements unless they are listed below. Please email firstname.lastname@example.com with questions regarding examinations that are not included in this list.
Students may submit their Australian Tertiary Admissions Rank (ATAR) or Overall Position (OP) positioning and one of the following:
Students may submit either of the following exams:
Students may submit one of the following:
Students may submit one of the following exams:
Students may submit one of the following:
Students who live in countries from which a national college entrance examination is not listed on this page may apply for a Standardized Testing Requirement Exemption. This form asks the applicant to indicate the reasons why he/she is unable to submit standardized test results, and provide alternative credentials in support of his/her application.
In addition to the examinations listed on this page, students are welcome to submit official documentation of national or international academic accomplishments which they feel may further support their application.
Test scores or examination results should be submitted directly from the testing organization by the appropriate application deadline. SAT, SAT Subject, ACT, and AP scores must be final at the time of application. For other examinations, if final results are unavailable at the time of application, predicted results may only be submitted by a school official, via one of the following methods:
NYU reserves the right to withdraw an offer of admission if final results are not within close range of the predicted results.
Exemption from English language proficiency testing will be given:
Even if you are exempt from taking the TOEFL, IELTS, or PTE exam, or if you are applying to our campuses in Abu Dhabi and/or Shanghai, you may still submit your scores to demonstrate your English proficiency. You should take one of these examinations regardless of any other test scores you submit to NYU if you do not qualify for an exemption. Your TOEFL/IELTS/PTE Academic score will be used in conjunction with, not in lieu of, other required standardized testing. Please also be aware:

Stephen Schloesser, S.J. (Ph.D., Stanford University, 1999; B.A. University of St. Thomas, 1980) is Professor of History at Loyola University Chicago where he teaches courses in Western civilization, Modern European history, intellectual history, and histories of Catholicism and of Jesuits.

His articles and reviews appear in journals such as Theological Studies, Catholic Historical Review, Shofar: An Interdisciplinary Jewish Review, Journal of Church and State, Journal of Interdisciplinary History, and Cristianesimo nella Storia (Bologna). In commemoration of the fiftieth anniversary of Georges Rouault's death, Schloesser curated the exhibit Mystic Masque: Semblance and Reality in Georges Rouault, 1871-1958 at Boston College in 2008. In commemoration of the bicentennial of the Restoration of the Society of Jesus and a century of women's education at Loyola University-Mundelein College, he is currently working on the exhibit Crossings and Dwellings: Restored Jesuits, Women Religious, American Experience, 1814-2014, to be mounted at the Loyola University Museum of Art (19 July-19 October, 2014) in conjunction with a research conference (with the same title -- see also the Tumblr site). Schloesser serves on the Editorial Board for the Catholic Historical Review.
Schloesser has been the recipient of several awards and honors. His exhibit Mystic Masque (2008) received the Apple Valley Foundation's Curatorial Excellence Award. Jazz Age Catholicism (2005) was awarded the John Gilmary Shea Prize from the American Catholic Historical Association. In 2004, along with pianists Hyesook Kim and Stéphane Lemelin, Schloesser received a grant from the Calvin College's Calvin Center for Christian Scholarship funding a collaborative performance and publication project on Olivier Messiaen's Visions of Amen. From 2005-2007, Schloesser served as the LoSchiavo Chair in Catholic Social Thought in the Joan and Ralph Lane Center for Catholic Studies and Social Thought at the University of San Francisco; in 2001-2002 as a Bannan Research Fellow at Santa Clara University; and in 1998-1999 as a Post-Doctoral In-Residence Fellow at the Erasmus Institute, University of Notre Dame. Schloesser is a past recipient of awards from the Charlotte W. Newcombe Fellowship (Woodrow Wilson Fellowship Foundation), the Bourse Chateaubriand (Ambassade Culturelle de France), and the Georges Lurcy Fellowship.

Two N-Sider Tips for Men's, Women's Hoops
Jordan Burroughs will speak about protecting your own personal brand.
By Randy York
Okay, here's something you need to know before "Dunk City" invades the "Star City" in Friday night's men's basketball season opener at Pinnacle Bank Arena. One N-Sider Tip of the Day is make sure you're in your seats early before the Huskers and Florida Gulf Coast tip off at 8 p.m. Better yet, set your DVR for at least the first 30 minutes of the nationally televised game on BTN, whether you're going, watching at home or checking in after dining out. Trust me, you'll thank me for that advice. It will be one magical moment after another. Even those who experience the pregame for Season One in live, living color and with the best screens and speaker system in college basketball, you're going to want to hit the replay button at least once, if not more.
Now, here's another solid N-Sider Tip of the Day – play a little hooky from work and treat the Nebraska-UCLA women's noon tipoff at PBA as a very special Friday treat. Arena food is more than good, and this Top 25 season-opening matchup gives you the opportunity to help Nebraska make history. The No. 12 Huskers hosting the No. 25 Bruins promises to be the best women's game of the day. Even if you can only skip work for a half to see the new arena and watch one of the world's best young women's basketball players, Jordan Hooper, it's worth your time and a few bucks out of your pocket. Do it. You'll thank me, too.
More Than 4,300 Middle Schoolers Will Be at PBA
The crowd for the women's game will surprise you because it will include more than 4,300 middle school kids and chaperones from the across Nebraska in what could be the state's best field trip ever. There will be 530 kids and chaperones from Plattsmouth, 500 from Norris, 220 from Wahoo, 220 from North Bend Central, 183 from Beatrice, 171 from Lincoln North American Martyrs, 145 from Crete, 141 from Lincoln St. Joseph, 140 from Waverly and 100 from David City West. Thirty-six other schools also will participate in a Life Skills/Sportsmanship Pep Rally from 9:30-10:45 a.m. Friday inside the arena. All 4,326 middle school kids and their chaperones will eat lunch and join the loyal Nebraska women's season ticket holders for Game One Presented by Ameritus
What a treat that will be with Keith Zimmer, Nebraska's Associate Athletic Director of Life Skills, working with Larry Munksgaard, the Executive Director of the Nebraska High Schools Sports Hall of Fame. Last spring, an estimated 1,700 Waverly middle school students kicked off the first-ever Sportsmanship 4 Life Pep Rally. "The dramatic jump in attendance indicates that middle schools see the value in this assembly," Munksgaard said. "Students have been impacted by the messages that Nebraska student-athletes and coaches share. It's worked well for us because they help us promote our education mission of character and sportsmanship. Keith Zimmer and Husker student-athletes help us all prove that there really is no place like Nebraska."
Miles Will Be One of Many Motivational Speakers
Last spring's rally was so successful, the sequel has more than doubled in participation and features another captivating program, which will include a motivational message from Nebraska Head Basketball Coach Tim Miles. Husker Head Baseball Coach Darin Erstad also will inspire with his pride/work ethic message. Olympic Gold Medalist Jordan Burroughs will explain why it's important to protect your personal brand. Husker hoopster Shavon Shields will focus on sportsmanship and respect. Former Husker women's player Meghan Williams will talk about relationships. Nebraska softball player Mattie Fowler will encourage kids to "dream more, do more and become more". And NCAA discus champion Chad Wright will zero in on "becoming a champion". Acrodunk will show why it's a national performance act, and Bathtub Dogs will provide musical entertainment. Even though three Nebraska football captains have to catch a plane for Ann Arbor Friday morning, Spencer Long, Quincy Enunwa and Ciante Evans, along with some younger players, will deliver their own messages through HuskerVision.
Several schools across the country are tapping into youth-focused basketball events to communicate positive messages and increase attendance, but no one seems to come close to matching the numbers Nebraska is reaching. Friday's Husker women's game will attract national attention from a Tweeter like Rebecca Lobo, who will follow the Nebraska-UCLA action. Brenda Van Lengen, a former University of Nebraska-Kearney player and Husker women's assistant coach, is a national analyst for BTN, Fox and the WNBA. She will work the Friday noon game for NET. Who knows? She might even catch part of the pep rally, so she can reinforce what undoubtedly will become one of the best annual field trips in America.
