Revealed: What distracts your brain while driving
At a time when technology-driven, fast-paced life has left many of us suffering with distraction-related attentional deficits, two psychologists have made a discovery that could revolutionise doctors' perception and treatment of attention-deficit disorders.
Our brains rely on an active suppression mechanism to avoid being distracted by salient irrelevant information when we want to focus on a particular item or task, they said.
"This is an important discovery for neuroscientists and psychologists because most contemporary ideas of attention highlight brain processes that are involved in picking out relevant objects from the visual field," explained lead author John Gaspar from Simon Fraser University.
The discovery opens up the possibility that environmental and/or genetic factors may hinder or suppress a specific brain activity that the researchers have identified as helping us prevent distraction.
Distraction is a leading cause of injury and death in driving and other high-stakes environments.
"There are individual differences in the ability to deal with distraction. New electronic products are designed to grab attention. Suppressing such signals takes effort, and sometimes people can't seem to do it," added John McDonald, an associate professor of psychology.
Now, the researchers are looking at when and why we cannot suppress potentially distracting objects, whether some of us are better at doing so and why that is the case.
The paper was published in the Journal of Neuroscience.

It's time for an inspiring visit to the Department of Totally Awesome Coiffures. These portraits were all taken in Japan at a salon called "Trick Store," which is located in the impressively hip Amerikamura or "Ame-mura" district of Osaka.
These are all amazing heads of hair, but we're particularly delighted by the top three photos which feature an adorable style called "Ripe Tomato" ("kanjuku tomato" or 完熟トマト), created by a Trick Store stylist known as "Hiro."
Head over to Kotaku to view more of Trick Store's fantastic hairdos.

General Nutrition
Moderating your food consumption is the most important component of a healthy, balanced diet. Incorporating concepts such as food combining and food rotation can also be beneficial when addressing poor digestion or food allergies. Following these simple guidelines below will help support your digestion and a strong immune system.
Eat Whole Natural Foods:
Whole natural foods that come direct from gardens, farms and orchards are the best choices for optimal nutrients, energy and vitality. Fresh fruits, vegetables, nuts, seeds, whole grains and legumes should ideally constitute 60-70% of your diet. Although processed food has an undeniable convenience factor and longer shelf life, they typically contain unnecessary additives and chemicals that can be detrimental to your health in the long run.
Eat Organic:
While not always the budget-friendly option, there are many benefits for eating organic whenever possible. Many believe that organically grown foods have a higher nutrient value than commercially grown produce, while others disagree. There are many studies to prove either side. What cannot be disputed is the undeniable benefit associated with the minimization of chemicals sprayed on organically grown produce, and therefore the reduced toxic load our bodies have to deal with.
Eat Naturally-Raised Meats (Fish, Seafood, Poultry, Beef, Lamb and Eggs):
Protein is an important component in diets, as it is the building block of all of our cells – and therefore our muscles, tissues and organs. And it is a tremendous source of vitamin B12 and iron. Due to its high fat content, it is important to consider only lean sources of protein. And to minimize our chemical and hormone exposure, look for naturally raised sources of protein.
Eat Raw or Lightly Steamed Vegetables:
Fruits and vegetables are best eaten as fresh as possible, though many can be stored well for several weeks. To maximize the nutrient value of fruits and vegetables, it's best to eat them raw or lightly steamed. When cooked, many of the vitamins, some minerals and certainly the enzymes in fruits and vegetables are lost, thereby reducing their nutrient value.
Eat in Moderation:
As a general guideline, every meal and snack should have 40% lean protein, 20% fat and 40% complex carbohydrates for optimum nutrition and satisfaction. One of the best things you can do is to always eat a healthy balanced breakfast, setting up your metabolism properly for the day. If you have time constraints, consider options such as protein smoothies, healthy muffins, hardboiled eggs or granola with fruit, nuts and seeds.
Eliminate or Minimize Caffeine:
Caffeine is a stimulant that helps us feel temporarily energized, but it has many negative effects to the body. It has a laxative effect that may cover up sluggish bowels; it's also a diuretic that causes frequent urination and dehydration, which can lead to many physical symptoms if taken in excess, including insomnia, high blood pressure and headaches.
Use Natural Sweeteners in Moderation:
Generally, it's best to minimize sugar due to its well-documented impact on health, including hypoglycemia, weight gain, cravings, high cholesterol and dental cavities to name a few. When a sweetener is required, consider natural sources such as raw honey and maple syrup instead.
Eliminate or Limit Alcohol:
The negative effects of excessive alcohol use are well documented. Even in moderate amounts, alcohol is a diuretic and also uses up B vitamins as it is processed from the body, so it's best to eliminate or strictly limit consumption.
Get Plenty of Sleep:
The importance of sleep is often overlooked. During sleep, our muscles and tissues are repaired and revitalized, and our minds process experiences and things we have learned during the day. Although we all have different sleep patterns and needs, the average person requires a minimum of seven to eight hours of uninterrupted sleep per night.
To achieve optimal sleep, avoid consumption of caffeine, heavy meals, exercise or alcohol within a few hours before bed. Before bed, consider reading, journaling or meditation to relax, as the day's anxieties and an overactive mind can also impact your ability to sleep. And finally, ensure that your sleeping environment is set up for the best quality of sleep – minimize noise and keep the bedroom as dark as possible.
Exercise – Move your Body!:
Many feel that exercise only includes weekly classes, trips to the gym or running. The reality is that any form of exercise is beneficial, including morning or evening walks, or even taking the stairs whenever possible. Ideally, find an activity you enjoy doing and do it as frequently as possible. If finding the time becomes a challenge, use simple methods such as parking your car farther away from your destination and even taking business meetings outdoors and making them "walking meetings". The key is to find every opportunity in a day to get your body moving.

A scholar is just a library's way of making another library
Today, everyone with a cellphone is a photographer/videographer and streaming video has become a national obsession. But has the proliferation of images devalued photojournalism and dulled its influence?
Meanwhile, the surge in the number of photos and videos from nonprofessionals gives news outlets more eyes on news. Editors are busier than ever sorting through citizen offerings of earthquakes, tornadoes, riots and, of course, dogs dressed up for St. Patrick's Day, and then confirming the veracity of those from politicized situations.
The Impact of Images: Considering the Place of Photojournalism Today
By SHANNON DOYNE and HOLLY EPSTEIN OJALVO
New York Times
Dorothea Lange Migrant Mother (1936)
n a late afternoon and exhausted from photographing earlier as one of the photographers hired by the Farm Security Administration (FSA) to document the social condition as a result of the Depression, Dorothea Lange turned down a dirt road to investigate a migrant camp of pea pickers. In less than fifteen minutes, Lange was back on the road after making five exposures of a woman (Florence Thompson) and her children in the camp. One of these images, Migrant Mother, became a symbol of the Depression as well as one of the most iconic and important photographs in the history of photography.
three frames from Eisenstaedt's set of the sailor kissing the nurse. In the book Eisenstaedt on Eisentstaedt, the photographer wrote:
I saw a sailor running along the street grabbing any and every girl in sight. Whether she was a grandmother, stout, thin, old, didn't make a difference. I was running ahead of him with my Leica looking back over my shoulder but none of the pictures that were possible pleased me. Then suddenly, in a flash, I saw something white being grabbed. I turned around and clicked the moment the sailor kissed the nurse…. It was done within a few seconds."
Originally, this most famous of World War II photos did not make the cover of Life magazine in which it first appeared; it showed up on page 27, full-page, but amid a whole series of somewhat similar pictures from across the country under the headline, "The Men of War Kiss From Coast to Coast." The photo didn't appear on a Life cover until 2005.
October 1980, Life ran a special spread entitled "Who Is the Kissing Sailor?" Ten sailors wrote to the magazine, each one insisting with convincing evidence — a distinctive hairline, a signature vein on the right hand, a newly acquired Quartermaster 1st Class patch — that he was the "kissing sailor". Three women also wrote in and claimed to be the nurse.
The art critic Michael Kimmelman wrote in The Times in 1997:
The most famous photograph of Times Square is surely Alfred Eisenstaedt's chestnut of the kissing couple, which summed up the national mood in 1945 because it combined all the right elements: the returning soldier, the woman who welcomed him back and Times Square, the crossroads that symbolized home.
A Walk To The Paradise Garden W. Eugene Smith
He was one of the great war photographers but had suffered injuries that in 1946 had taken two years to hopefully heal. He was not sure if his career was over. One day he went for a walk with his children…
I knew the photograph, though not perfect, and however unimportant to the world, had been held…. I was aware that mentally, spiritually, even physically, I had taken a first good stride away from those past two wasted and stifled years.
While he was right about his stride towards recovery, Smith miscalculated the photo's importance. In 1955, a heavily-indebted Smith decided to submit the photo to Edward Steichen's now-famous Family of Man exhibit at the MOMA. There, it became a finalist and then the closing image, thus cementing its position as the icon of all family photographs.

Once a champion thoroughbred trainer, Walsh has given up horse training for a quiet life with Channing on their modest Kentucky farm.
The little zebra, or "Stripes," as Channing calls him, is soon introduced to the farm's misfit troupe of barnyard residents, led by a cranky Shetland Pony named Tucker (voiced by Dustin Hoffman and Franny (voiced by Whoopi Goldberg), a wise old goat who keeps the family in line. The group is joined by Goose (voiced by Joe Pantoliano), a deranged big-city pelican who's hiding out in the sticks until the heat dies down in Jersey. The un-aptly named bloodhound Lightening (Snoop Dogg) keeps a lazy eye on goings-on at the farm � in between naps.
The Walsh farm borders the Turfway Racetrack, where highly skilled thoroughbreds compete for horse racing's top honor, the ultra-prestigious Kentucky Crown. From the first moment Stripes lays eyes on the track, he's hooked � he knows that if he could just get the chance, he could leave all those other horses in the dust. What he doesn't know is...he's not exactly a horse. But with characteristic zeal, he devotes himself to training for the big time, with a little help from Tucker, who has coached a host of champion racehorses in the past.
Channing has a similar ambition � she longs to train as a jockey, but her protective father refuses to let her compete in the potentially dangerous sport. But Walsh can't ignore her enthusiasm (or her stubbornness) for long, and she convinces him to come out of retirement to train her and Stripes for the Kentucky Crown.
The neighboring Estate is run by the ruthless queen of the Kentucky racing circuit, the incredibly wealthy and exceptionally coldhearted Clara Dalrymple (Wendie Malick). Stripes constantly battles the ridicule of the Estate�s thoroughbreds-in-training, led by spoiled bully Sir Trenton's Pride (voiced by Joshua Jackson), who taunts him relentlessly about his lack of breeding and�unusual appearance. But the Estate is home to some kinder residents, particularly Sandy (voiced by Mandy Moore), a beautiful mare whose admiration and affection for Stripes further enrages his rival.
Stripes makes some friends down at the track as well, most notably the manic horsefly duo Buzz (Steve Harvey) and Scuzz (David Spade), whose love of song and dance is eclipsed only by their love of hot dogs and horse poop.
As he thrusts himself into a world of elite athletes, intense competition and enormous stakes, Stripes must prove he's fast enough and tough enough to run with the big horses if he wants to land in the winner's circle at the legendary Kentucky Crown.
Some champions are born, not bred!

rhamphotheca: Brown Tree Snake (Boiga irregularis)
… is an arboreal rear-fanged venomous colubrid snake native to eastern and northern coastal Australia, Papua New Guinea, and a large number of islands in northwestern Melanesia. This snake is infamous for being an invasive species responsible for devastating the majority of the native bird population in Guam.
The brown tree snake preys upon birds, lizards, bats and small rodents in its native range. Due to the availability of prey and lack of predators in introduced habitats such as Guam, they have been known to grow to larger sizes than their normal 1 to 2 m (3.3 to 6.6 ft) in length.The longest recorded length of this species is one found on Guam measuring three metres (9.8 ft).
The brown tree snake is a nocturnal snake that can be very aggressive when confronted.It is a rear-fanged colubrid, possessing two small, grooved fangs at the rear of the mouth. The venom appears to be weakly neurotoxic and possibly cytotoxic with localized effects, but these effects are trivial for adult humans, and serious medical consequences have been limited to children…

Posted Jul 29, 2012By
LONDON — This was not what the Americans expected.
Oh sure, being atop the standings by a comfortable margin after their qualifying session in women's gymnastics, that went according to plan. But world champion Jordyn Wieber, a heavy favorite to add the Olympic gold, won't even get to contend for the all-around title after finishing behind teammates Aly Raisman and Gabby Douglas. Countries are limited to two gymnasts in the all-around and event finals.
It was a stunner for Wieber, who had lost only two all-around competitions since 2008 — though both to fellow Americans — and it left her teammates reeling.

Allegations of fraud, civil conspiracy and breach of contract.
If you think there's an ugly nature to the A-Rod arbitration hearings, what could transpire in Houston might take on an ugly nature as well.
Yesterday, Houston Astros owner Jim Crane filed suit against former owner Drayton McLane, Comcast and NBC Universal, reports David Barron of The Houston Chronicle. Crane is accusing the parties of fraud and civil conspiracy and accusing McLane's corporation that owned the Astros of breach of contract. Crane purchased the Astros in 2011 for $615 million, which also included a 46% interest in the parent company of CSN Houston.
What has brought on this suit? Money. Isn't it always?
Apparently there's an issue regarding CSN Houston. Crane alleges that McLane sold "an asset (the network) they knew at the time to be overpriced and broken." Since the RSN's launch in late 2012, only about 40% of households in the Houston market have access to the network. Crane asserts that finding providers has been difficult due to McLane and Rockets owner Leslie Alexander demanding that Comcast charge a base subscriber rate for CSN Houston in Zone 1. That zone represents the area around Houston where Astros and Rockets games can be seen.
When the demand was made in 2010, Comcast said the rate was too high. Comcast feared that the rate was so high that it could not convince other distributors to carry the network. Comcast would eventually agree to the rate, received a most favored nation clause in return. This insured Comcast would always pay the lowest base rate of any distributor.
The Rockets are not a part of the suit.
Crane states within the suit that he was unaware of this fact while in the process of purchasing the club. Crane also alleges that McLane, Comcast and NBC Universal worked together to "conceal material information" regarding the RSN. Crane also indicates that he was unaware of the 2010 demand made by McLane and Alexander until December 2012 during a meeting in New York City.
As part of the purchase agreement, the Astros were to receive $30MM annually in rights fees from CSN Houston. The club has failed to receive that for 2013.
The only peep about this on CSN Houston's website is an AP snippet. But there is a button for you to click to demand CSN.
NBC Universal has issued a statement on the suit:
Comcast/NBCUniversal vehemently rejects any claim of wrongdoing asserted by the Astros. This litigation outside the bankruptcy proceedings is a desperate act, committed during a period in which Mr. Crane and his team of sophisticated advisors have been granted by the Bankruptcy Court an opportunity to explore and effectuate solutions to the Network's serious business problems.
"Instead, it appears that Mr. Crane is suffering from an extreme case of buyer's remorse, and aiming to blame the Network's challenges on anything but his own actions. Comcast/NBCUniversal looks forward to vindicating itself in this litigation and also remains committed to a reorganization of the Network in Bankruptcy Court.
I read an interesting take on this by David Coleman over at SB Nation's Crawfish Boxes:
This is pure speculation on my part…the Astros obtained discovery on Comcast/NBC in the bankruptcy case, which might allow them to see internal Comcast documents as well as correspondence, e-mail between Comcast and the other parties before Crane bought the Astros. I am guessing that the Astros saw something that made them believe that they could sustain evidence of misrepresentation by Comcast, McLane, etc.
Coleman provides an example in which Crane was provided financial projections for the network, but they may have been vastly different from the internal projections.
Then there this by John Royal of The Houston Press:
Jim Crane was suckered by Drayton McLane. That's why most of the city of Houston can't see CSN Houston. It's just that simple. Jim Crane didn't do his proper due diligence, and he fell hook, line and sinker for everything that McLane told him, including that bit about CSN Houston being set to earn a huge profit.
Sad thing is, and Coleman also notes this, all involved are losers: Crane, McLane, Comcast.
More importantly, Astros fans that are unable to see their team play on TV are the biggest losers.

Featured Golf News
Southeastern Presentations, Inc. Assisting Developers & Marketing Firms with Quality Scaled Models
March 4, 2008. Southeastern Presentations, Inc. of Winter Haven, FL is fabricating scaled models of golf and residential communities at a discount up to 40%. Since 1986, SPI has built models for some of the most successful golf and residential communities worldwide.
President, Larry Razzano, is discounting the company's services due to the tough real estate state market. Razzano says that developers have used his products for 20 years and he wants to give something back by helping market the projects for less. SPI can produce models for pre-sale. Recently they delivered a model to a residential community in Orlando and the developer sold 17 units in two weeks. The model was the selling tool that drove sales, says Razzano.
For further information, contact Larry Razzano at 863/206-2358.

The main thing is: do something!
You have to do something. What you choose is not the issue. Neither are all the neat little tricks and conniving.
All that really matters is that you do your job honestly and as best you know how using the talents and skills with which He blessed you. As He blessed you with those talents, so He will bless you in whatever you do.
Don't limit G‑d. Whatever the universe can provide, He is there within that.

The site seems as brisk as any other time. I have noticed the broadband does suffer a bit at times, when you would expect high volume, and suspect the local exchange (or whatever the broadband equivalent is) is showing the effects of other users sharing the local system.
I have seen a significant slow down in the initial loading of the home page over the last couple of weeks, in particular the pics,I'm also on broadband.
I work in IT and know that identifying bottlenecks when the Internet is involved is very very difficult. There are so many factors that have an influence: number of people on your ADSL card in the exchange, number of people using your ISP, router performance of all routers in between, the route taken for your connection, virusses and spam flying around on the Internet, server performance at photozine, to name a few. My connection at the moment takes 23 steps to reach homer (that's the name of the ephotozine server) and goes from the UK via Germany and the Netherlands back to the UK.
Will: at my work we use easynet, like your hosting company, and are generally happy with them. They are always willing to investigate if you think there is a problem.
Getting ADSL on Wednesday, hooray.

Arizona Diamondbacks
D-backs GM Towers: This can work with La Russa
Arizona Diamondbacks general manager Kevin Towers delved into uncharted territory when the team hired former Cardinals manager Tony La Russa to be its chief baseball officer.
"The only thing that is different at least since Tony's been hired is probably more communication with him more so than probably Derrick (Hall) just because that's who I report to now when we make player moves or talking about the draft," Towers said on the Doug and Wolf show on Arizona Sports 98.7 FM.
On the show last week, Towers said he hadn't interacted with La Russa in person, but hoped he wasn't a "pseudo GM."
This week, his tune seems more optimistic.
Towers said the arrangement of a GM reporting to a CBO can work, and both he and La Russa want it to work, "but only time will tell" if it actually does.
"We're both baseball guys," Towers said. "I've known him for quite some time leading back to the late 90s. I think in the few conversations we have there's a comfort level. There's mutual respect. I think I could certainly be in assistance to him on the calendar and timing and priorities in the front office.
"I'm sure I could learn a lot about the game of baseball and assembling a ballclub from arguably one of the great managers in the game."
