New Zealand will be determined to claim their fifth straight title when Sevens kicks off in what is the 20th Commonwealth Games this weekend.
Wins in Kuala Lumpur, Manchester, Melbourne and Delhi were memorable for the All Blacks Sevens, with Glasgow next on their wish list.
Standing in their way is Canada and Scotland in the pools before big guns such as South Africa, England, Samoa and Australia also challenge.
But what makes this tournament special is the non-core series teams on show as the likes of Barbados, Cook Islands, Trinidad and Tobago, Papua New Guinea, Malaysia, Sri Lanka and Uganda test their abilities against established sides, with Rio 2016 what everyone is striving for.
As mentioned, Pool A of New Zealand, Canada, Scotland and Barbados is arguably the toughest of the four due to three IRB Series core nations being involved. Many expect the fixture at 21:04 between the Canadians and Scots to be vital in deciding who joins the Kiwis in the Cup.
Pool B consists of South Africa, Kenya, Cook Islands and Trinidad and Tobago, with Pool C seeing Samoa, Wales, Papua New Guinea and Malaysia battle for progression to Sunday's elite competition. The remaining Pool pits England with Australia, Sri Lanka and Uganda in what should be a Cup progression formality for the more established duo on Day One.
The bookies understandably have New Zealand as favourites and South Africa, England, Australia, Samoa and Canada their closest rivals, but it will be interesting to see how Scotland raise their game in front of their fans. Kenya are also a team not to be written off.
But, with a record of zero defeats in four Commonwealth Games and a "brutal" training regime behind them, every team will be chasing down New Zealand, with captain DJ Forbes telling BBC Sport the rigorous work Sir Gordon Tietjens has been putting the team through.
"His methods are old school - 'brutal' is one of the words I'm sure a lot of people will agree with," said the forward, with Tietjens revealing why he has put his team through the mill.
"It's fair comment that I'm quite hard, but I also believe I'm quite fair," he said, with his side opening against Canada. "The condition levels required for rugby sevens are different to a 15-a-side game. In a 15-a-side game it's all about defence and there's not a lot of space.
"The guys who play sevens are all athletes. They're the fittest rugby players in New Zealand. They train hard and you've got to have that type of commitment if you want to be successful."
"We find that every team that plays New Zealand goes into a game saying 'we've got nothing to lose'. So we treat every game like a final.
"I asked my players what drove them to gold in Delhi and they all said the same - they didn't want to be the first New Zealand sevens team to lose at a Commonwealth Games.
"The Games have been good to us and coming up in Glasgow the challenge for us is to get out there and hopefully win a fifth gold medal."
Pool A: New Zealand, Canada, Scotland, Barbados
Pool B: South Africa, Kenya, Cook Islands, Trinidad and Tobago
Pool C: Samoa, Wales, Papua New Guinea, Malaysia

Is TED a scam?
Who attends these meetings or whatever it is you guys call them? How does this organization qualify as a non-profit?
Just wanted to clarify...maybe I am wrong. Some input would be great.
1. How can you charge people 75 dollars (knowing certain people cannot afford that) and then claim its a non-profit trying to help the planet?
2. If I am wrong...and TED does do something amazing...what is it?
Kareem Fahim
Dec 20 2012: Dear Henry,
- +2
1. I've never attended a TED event. Heck I didn't even know they charged 75 bucks. But either way, you can watch almost all TED talks on TED website/YouTube in HD. TED needs revenues to even expenses
2. It transfers an 'idea' from one mind to other without usual BS. That seems fair enough to me
[An Idea: Since you seem unemployed, you can start a 'Ted'-like organism(without attendance fee). You can make a free website (Blogger) and start :)]Dec 20 2012: Implying that TED is a "scam" seems a bit harsh to me.
Non-profit organizations are allowed to collect revenue, so long as all proceeds are used to further the cause of the organization. However, they are prohibited from distributing profits to owners or shareholders in the same capacity that a for-profit corporation does. Non-profit organizations that do not have tax exempt status are not required to operate solely for charitable purposes and can conduct business more freely as long as all profits are used to further the organization's objective.
I don't think it's necessarily accurate (or fair) to assume that an organization which collects money or isn't strictly philanthropic doesn't have a valid, positive purpose.
Collecting $7,500 from conference attendees might seem unjustifiable, but if you consider the costs involved in organizing an event, recruiting speakers, maintaining a high volume website without ads, and making thousands of TED talks available to stream/download online for free, that figure begins to seem more reasonable.
Although I'm sure there are a number of very productive, ingenious people who would like to attend TED conferences but cannot afford to, the $7,500 fee facilitates a demographic of individuals who have applied their ingenuity to earning money. That's not to say that individuals with lucrative ideas are better or more legitimate than individuals whose ideas are not profitable, but it does make for a particular conference dynamic that is conducive to matching good ideas with the resources to perpetuate them.
Fritzie -
Dec 20 2012: Different live or simulcast TED events cost different amounts to participate, but listening to the talks and discussing them online are free. Many TEDx events are offered at modest price or sponsored by organizations for their employees or membership.Dec 20 2012: It facilitates a demographic? So you don't want poor people at these things...yeah I can see how that's not pig headed at all.
- +1
Dec 20 2012: I'm stating it as a fact, not expressing the opinion that *I* don't want poor people there.
I would imagine that the $7,500 is less about specifically excluding poor people and more about attracting a demographic that has the financial resources to support TED or invest in the ideas being presented at the conference. As Fritzie pointed out, there are many other TED events/forums that cost a lot less (or are completely free) and things like that (including this discussion) are subsidized by the more expensive events and private donations.
The typical attendee of the TED conference not only has $7,500 of disposable funds, but chooses to spend those funds on attending the conference. That reflects the sort of values held by such a person. By catering to THAT specific demographic for certain events, TED statistically increases its chances of earning the patronage of like-minded, financially successful individuals. I don't think they should be vilified for wanting to create an environment conducive to that once or twice per year.Dec 20 2012: A Non Profit means that they do not take profit. They spend it on organizing all the things they do, including the 10 plus thing on the top of the screen.Dec 20 2012: For starters I think we have seen bigger communities of intellectuals...so I wont even comment on that. My point is very simple...and you can all rant all you want about how great these forums are.
Fact is...if TED has this huge influence...shouldn't TED be doing something with it?
Or is that just...way out in left field?
Dec 20 2012: No Henry, your idea is not way out in left field. I have gotten the impression from the beginning of my participation on TED, that the goal was to build a "community". It even says "TED community" on the top bar, where we can find all the members:>)
So, the question is not what TED can do for you, but what can YOU do for the community?Dec 20 2012: TED is a global community of intellectuals in such a scale that has never been had in history.Dec 20 2012: 75 dollars for what?Dec 20 2012: and they rip off who exactly?
1. certainly not me. i get everything for free.
2. attendees are told beforehand what program they can expect, what is the price. they get exactly that for exactly the agreed price.
3. the state, through tax evasion? honestly, i could not care less if this is the case. they collect too much taxes anyway.
Dec 20 2012: Try 3c hike each year for the next 4 years? Petrol tax but since we deregulated back in the 90's we now have on average 3 cars per family, mostly Japanese imports. We now have too many cars on the roads and they require continuous upkeep. It's a tax that hurts but how else are we to get the roads kept up to scratch.
I don't like paying taxes like anyone else either.
Dec 20 2012: how do we keep roads in shape ... privatize them. the private owner of a road must spend enough to ensure future income, but has to charge competitively few.
btw. how do we know that interstate highways are the way to go? why not railways? why not airways? the free market is so resourceful.Dec 20 2012: Good questions, Henry. I would think that the attendance fees help pay for this forum where we can have these wonderful conversations about interesting topics.
I wonder if TED has a "scholarship" mechanism where people who can't afford the 75 bucks can have it waived? You might inquire.Dec 20 2012: Does anybody have any links to the financial reports from the Sapling Foundation?
Dec 20 2012: Here's from an internet search for Sapling Foundation financials: http://www.eri-nonprofit-salaries.com/index.cfm?FuseAction=NPO.Form990&EIN=943235545&Year=2012
There is likely more stuff available as well through an internet search.Dec 20 2012: Think TED's a scam.
Hangs out in TED because of the discussions.
Loves conversations and ideas and innovations.
TED is a pigheaded prop.
Funny thread, nice to see some troll humor here every now and then.
Dec 20 2012: I like the discussions...no doubt...that really has nothing to do with what TED is doing. However, your use of rhetoric isn't surprising...that's what this kind of forum breeds.
You said TED is a pigheaded prop....when I was referencing a specific statement. You then take it...generalize it...and use it as you did. I mean that's fine...but let's call it for what it is.
Don't act like im this "negative Nancy" until you can prove it. Am I wrong? Does TED not use people as a marketing platform for other companies?
Since you limit the demographic....this isn't an "Ideas Bank" ...its a group of people that like to hang out and talk about stuff.
That's fine..again...but let's stop pretending here. Have your meetings...and your little brainstorming sessions...but don't act like your making any sort of change for anybody. Plenty of people put in good work for humanity...im not so sure any of them are on this thread.
Dec 20 2012: According to the FAQ on this website about speakers who present their ideas in talks at the conferences, the demographic of talk-givers is not limited by their ability to pay to attend. Their airfare, accomodations, and pass to the four day event are covered by TED. They receive no stipend to speak, however.Dec 20 2012: Henry,
For me, the discussion has EVERYTHING to do with what TED is about. I cannot afford to go to the conferences, and I can watch them right from my home because TED provides that service. Like any other non-profit, there are expenses generated, both in providing the talks in person, as well as electronically. I think just the fact that I can watch these videos and connect with people around the world on a daily basis, for no cost to me is pretty amazing.Dec 20 2012: So this is what we have so far.
1) TED doesn't have to do anything amazing.
2) If you cannot afford a ticket...maybe you don't belong at the conferences.
:) you all can have your expensive meetings...some of us understand what's really going on here.
edward long
Dec 20 2012: Good things are not always amazing.There is no prerequisite that demands TED do everything in an amazing way.You seem to believe that everything should be affordable for everyone. That is not so. The TED cash cow is based on the spectacularly high price of a seat in the venue where the remarkable talks are being delivered live. Then the high-quality videos-with translation- are made available to the 6.999999999 billion of us who cannot attend live. I think it's amazing that Technology (the "T" in TED) allows me to "attend" at no charge. You have contributed 137 heart-felt, passionate comments so you should see the value of TED, even with the flaws you perceive. Stick around sir, share some positive, constructive energy with us. Be well!
- +2
Dec 20 2012: Edward...I have no problem with what TED is doing...wave the right flag though..thats all im saying...dont walk around with "flag A" when you obviously fly under "flag B"...understand what im saying?
Dec 20 2012: No, Henry, I need more information to understand your issue with TED, if you think it is constructive to pursue the subject. Thanks!.Dec 20 2012: 1) "Who attends these meetings. . . ?". Whoever considers a ticket to be worth the price and buys one. It's called the free exchange of goods and services. It is one of the vital signs of freedom.
2) "How does the organization qualify. . . ?". No profits are taken from collected revenue. No payouts or dividends are paid. All funds are incorporated into the continuing operation.
3) "How can you charge. . . ?". Fees are the value received by TED for the product, or service they provide. TED policymakers set the price of a ticket as appropriate to fund the operation of the enterprise. This is normal and typical business practice.
4) ". . . and then claim it's a non-profit. . . ?". See number 2 above.
5) "If I am wrong. . . ?". Your implication that TED does not do "something amazing" is misplaced. Look closely at Ms. d'Etienne's comment (below).
TED is worthwhile, God bless those folks who can, and do, devote some of their money to fund it. Give it another look Mr. Woeltjen, you'll like it!Dec 20 2012: Are Universities scams? TED is a really cheap way to communicate and spread ideas. The most enjoyable reference to TED that I have seen was a scene that was not in the final cut for Prometheus. That's not a scam - It's part of educated culture.
Dec 20 2012: I was thinking the same. What a wonderful thing to make high quality talks across fields available at no charge to anyone with a computer!
I think of TED as part of the online learning revolution for the intrinsically motivated.Dec 20 2012: Yes George many Universities are scams.Dec 20 2012: I have noticed that much of what TED seems to actually do (atleast publicly) consists of the following:
-I've got an idea
-Here it is *tells audience*
-Goodbye *everyone goes home*
There does appear to be somewhat of a limit to observable results/improvement to any given situation that is talked about in a TEDtalk, so it would be nice to go from
'ideas worth sharing'
'Ideas put into practice'Dec 20 2012: You may find part of your answer in this talk about the potency of exchanges of ideas:
http://www.ted.com/talks/steven_johnson_where_good_ideas_come_from.htmlDec 20 2012: You might be the first to organize the first open air TedX in your local Tedburban area with local businesses contributing to donating their time and investment to the said event?
Why we are trying to cram in as much helpful input as possible? Well we hopefully think it's helpful.
Posterity.Dec 20 2012: Communicate ideas and then what? What's the value of spending all this money on communication? Are we using this communication to do anything more than push brands?
Does TED have any sort of government foundation that submits ideas...or are we just focused on making more money here? I mean...if a foundation does exist...what kind of ideas has it come up with?
How much more progress could we make on cancer research if we didn't use any more money to communicate these ideas? If TED disappeared today...would millions of children go hungry?
I guess I don't know enough about TED...so you could see this as an attack...or an inquiry. It would be nice to get funding to go across the country and evaluate these so called...non-profts. That wont ever happen...I could imagine trying to get access to some of these federally funded programs...I'm sure people are living quite nicely on dollar amounts that don't eqactly relate to work performed.
I think instead of being fake...TED should consider opening to a more broad base of thinkers...people that aren't really able to pay 75 bucks because were too busy trying to make money in a horrible economy. If TED is going to fund these people...getting up on stage with nice outfits...why don't you start representing some people that don't have enough money to look as nice as some of you.
I think its a huge mistake...trying to walk around pretending to be an institution of "ideas" when it really turns out to be a marketing platform for multiple companies across the globe. IBM logos and TEDCred...badges given for quantity...not quality. Pretty transparent.
Dec 20 2012: Yes the dreaded badge, i find it embarrassing as i haven't progressed along a measily ten since last year and to top it off, it has no currency value.
I've been quite trollee lately with the massacre and the supposed world outrage towards it. I'm old fashioned and feel that victim privacy should of been observed.
Another member was politely turned down a ticket by his local organizer as he didn't belong to an organization or foundation or a business though his forum input was exceptional. Ted only granted the rights for an organizer to use their brand but i think that is as far as it goes.
Come on Henry, business is business even for a non profit like TED has to pay the bills, i don't think the acc firm they use donate their time unless they have an inhouse department.
I would like to see academics and researchers at the end of their talks throw up a page on the screen showing links to whatever research they used, some of us are not great searchers....well, i'm not great at it.Dec 20 2012: Never been to a meeting, but facility costs exist, even in non-profits.
Facilitates communication between those with questions and those that are looking for a way to voice an opinion, share some knowledge, or offer an opinion.
Offers videos and presentations as a means to communicate ideas, provide a venue for artists, and perhaps inspire new thoughts as a result of associations made between topics or discussions.
This forum has a decidedly positive spin on issues and topics.

Make it your own
Add other vegetables – potatoes, carrots, celeriac or squash would all taste great. Make it go further by stirring in a drained and rinsed can of chickpeas or lentils with the turkey. Toss in a few handfuls of frozen peas or leaf spinach 3 minutes before the end.
- Heat the oil in a saucepan, add the onions and fry gently for 10 minutes until they are softened and lightly coloured. Add the parsnips and stir well.
- To make the curry, stir in the curry paste, then add the tomatoes with a little salt, and stir well. Add 1½ canfuls of water and bring to the boil. Reduce the heat, cover and simmer for 15-20 minutes, until the parsnips are just tender.
- To finish, stir in the turkey chunks, cover the pan again and simmer for a further 5 minutes until the turkey is heated through. Remove from the heat. (The curry can now be cooled and frozen for up to 2 months.) Lightly swirl in the yogurt and serve with basmati rice.

Comments, questions and tips
I used this recipe as a guide to use up my leftover lamb from Christmas. I added a load of potato chunks to the two sliced onions, as well as one chopped parsnip, one chopped carrot and three brussel sprouts, as that was all I had left in the fridge! I had a bit of Balti curry paste left, so I topped it up with Korma curry paste. Added the tomatoes and water as in the recipe, simmered, added lamb and some peas, simmered some more. Had naan bread with it. Quick, delicious and satisfying.....and still enough left for tomorrow's tea ;)
I tried this once but had to alter the recipe a little,forget the list of ingredients,just whack some bacon under the grill and toast some bread,ring your takeaway and order a proper curry,while you are waiting for the curry to come use the cooked bacon and toast for a sarny,damn sight quicker and easier....

I made this recipe on boxing day but used korma paste instead as my local store didnt have the madras, really mild but it worked. I had so much turkey left over as we all were poorly on christmas day that I made two batched at once. If you decide to do this, do not simply double the amount of water as it doesnt reduce enough. It was really nice though!!!!

Lovely coat!
The coat feels very warm, it looks expensive, it is made nicely with great material... And the best thing of all is I got it for less than $50 on clearance sale. The only colors available on clearance was the garnet, I guess not a lot of people would rock that color that's why it was on sale. I'm still waiting for the other colors to go on sale. I'm 5'2 and weigh 125 lbs, got the size 4 misses. This was a great purchase! Go ahead and buy one for yourself too! :)

elegant coat
Love this camel coat - I also have one in white. It is nice to know I can count on a tall and extra length fashion that is not also oversized. This is tall, long and sleek and perfect for me.

Great Buy
This was my first purchase from Metrostyle, and I am pleased. Luv the length of the coat on my tall frame! The black coat is very elegant, and the fit is flattering (I am 5'11", size 6/8 (slender up top, but a thick derriere & thighs below) and ordered the 8. The coat is not bulky even though I purchased the larger size 8. It can be dressed up or down. It's warm enough where I can wear a skirt & tall boots in the 30 degree weather of Philadelphia, and still remain warm. This is a very soft, "flowy", wool blend, almost like a heavy weight fleece (yet not unattractive like fleece coats tend to be), and although I was expecting a thicker, firmer wool blend, the cost is still nice. In terms of arm length, I was expecting the arms to be a little longer and it stops just at my wrists. I decided to leave my pockets sewn shut so there is no gaping at my curvy hips. I'm having fun accessorizing this coat with my many hats, scarves, shoes, and purses! (Side note...Telephone customer se

Long Wool-blend Coat
I love my coats. I first bought the winter white one and liked it so much, I decided to get the black one.The quality, price, and look are outstanding. If the coat is offered in different colors next year, I will purchase again.
Very disappointed
I am so disappointed! After reading all of the wonderful reviews I purchased this coat in Camel. The color is horrible. It's more of a mustard color than camel. The fit was not flattering at all. I have purchased many items from Metrostyle in the past and have always been very pleased, but this coat will be going back for a full refund!

Love it!!!
I'm so happy the black is back in stock. I waited all year for it. I ordered the winter white one last year. It's so classy and comfortable. Love this coat!!! :)
Great coat for price
I got this long wool coat for 50.00 in the true red a couple of years ago. I t was only available in sixe 4. Iam 5'9 127 pounds . The coat was a great coat. I wore to Christmas party for my job in 2009. People kept commending that coat matched my dress.

Units first licensed in mid-1970s, now set to expire 2034, 2036
By AMANDA SCOTT
Staff writer
According to an economic analyst, Calvert Cliffs Nuclear Power Plant in Lusby is one of more than three dozen U.S. nuclear reactors at risk of early retirement.
Mark Cooper, a senior fellow for economic analysis at the Institute for Energy and the Environment at Vermont Law School, released a report Wednesday titled "Renaissance in Reverse: Competition Pushes Aging U.S. Nuclear Reactors to the Brink of Economic Abandonment," arguing that 38 reactors in 23 states, including Calvert Cliffs, are at risk of closing before reaching the end of their licensed lives.
According to the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission, Calvert Cliffs units 1 and 2 were first licensed in July 1974 and August 1976, respectively. Both units' licenses were renewed May 23, 2003, and are set to expire July 31, 2034, for unit 1 and Aug. 13, 2036, for unit 2.
"Constellation Energy Nuclear Group has no information to suggest our facilities will retire before their licensed operating lives are up," CENG Director of Communications Cynthia Angus said in a statement Thursday morning.
CENG, which owns Calvert Cliffs, is owned by Electricite de France and Exelon Corp.
Angus said in the statement, "Due to the nature of our company's structure, any decision to retire a plant early would have to be made by the board and our parent companies, EDF and Exelon."
Cooper, who has written several reports on the nuclear industry, including "Policy Challenges of Nuclear Reactor Construction, Cost Escalation and Crowding Out Alternatives," claims in the report released this week that the purpose of the report is not to predict which reactor will be the next to retire, "but explain why we should expect more early retirements."
Cooper used 11 risk factors, ranging from economic and operational factors to safety issues, to determine which reactors may be at a greater risk of early retirement. The risk factors include competition from lower-cost energy sources, declining demand, safety retrofit expenses, repairs and rising operating costs. All 38 at-risk reactors Cooper details in his report exhibit at least four of the 11 risk factors.
In the case of Calvert Cliffs, six of the risk factors are present, including four economic factors, one operational factor and one safety issue, according to the report. The report does not detail any plant specifics for any of the 38 plants, but does cite cost, age, the duration of the license, long-term outage and multiple safety issues in Calvert's case.
In his report, Cooper states that the purpose "is to inform policy makers about and prepare them for the likelihood of early retirements. By explaining the economic causes of early retirements, the policy makers will be better equipped to make economically rational responses to those retirements (or the threat of retirement)."
During a news teleconference Wednesday afternoon, when asked about the potential for sites that have multiple reactors, such as Calvert Cliffs, to be shut down or for one of those reactors at a site to be shut down, Cooper said he wasn't going to say whether one or more sites would or could be shut down.
"You'd have to look at the specifics of the situation," Cooper said, adding that the shutdown of an entire site is plausible, but he isn't making any predictions.
He said the report demonstrates that nuclear reactors are "on the edge" and that a "precipitator," or risk factor, "comes along and pushes it over the edge."
In his report, Cooper states that the key to the fate of at-risk U.S. reactors is "the extent to which these factors will persist over the next couple of decades when the retirement decisions will be made."
Cooper said during the teleconference that the risk factors also call into question the economic value of license extensions or reactor power "uprates," or the process of increasing the maximum power level at which a commercial nuclear power plant may operate.
Peter Bradford, adjunct professor at Vermont Law School, former member of the NRC and former utility commission chair in New York and Maine, said during the teleconference Wednesday, "No U.S. nuclear plant has ever closed because it reached the end of its licensed life. Instead, cost challenges to their continued profitability has usually been the cause of shutdowns. Dr. Cooper's new work shows this to be a widespread and an enduring problem, one that further undermines nuclear power's claim to being a promising bulwark in a serious climate policy."

Overall Experience
Nice room
08 August 2015
The only real issue that we had was the room was a non smoking room but still smelled like cigarette smoke. Parking could be better.
Great family hotel
07 August 2015
We had the 2 bedroom 2 bath suite and was perfect for our family. The room was clean and spacious. Having a kitchen was great with kids. Moring breakfast provided by the hotel was a nice option as well as the evening social.
Business trip suprise

The chair rail was first discovered in Europe around the time that our early ancestors first learned to sit. What originated as a wooden plank stuck humbly (and often hastily) to the wall has evolved over time into a type of fancy-schmancy decorative molding. It is now customarily installed into the room of one's first newborn child, as babies are at the greatest risk of exposure to chairs. Typically, during the later stages of pregnancy, the mother-to-be will supervise the installation of chair rail while the dominant males of the family passionately discuss the accuracy of measurements.
Step 1: Go get stuff
- Enough chair rail molding to cover the perimeter of your room
- Chop saw
- Nail gun (preferable over hammer and nails)
- Window glazing
- Tape measure
- A pencil
- A level
- Studfinder
- Calk gun
- Sandpaper
- Paper towels
(You will also need paint if you're molding comes unfinished. This Instructable does not cover painting molding, but you would want to do that before you move on to the next step.)
Change the title to Installing Chair/Dado Rail
as we all don't live in the united states of americans
I had to read into the instructable to find out its not something to do with blue tape on the floor.
One more thing. I always called them chair rails. A dado was a method to make a joint between pieces ot materiel.
Besides installing the heavy iron (Vaults and Safes and weapons vaults for the government) our company also produced Bank Teller line counters and the the cabinets below the counters for the tellers. Those 'teller lines' as we called them were pre-fabricated and shipped to the job site, and we had to put them all together.
Most times we had to do some cutting and hacking on them to fit right. When you showed how to cut a 45 degree angle on one piece, then flip it around with the same face up, I about died.
All those years being ignorant, when the simplicity of the 90 degree angle was right in front of me, I always hated to cut the 45 degree and 90 degree cut.
Thank you for this build! I guess it is never too late to learn something...James
Cherenkov Imaging Techniques are the way to visualise particle collisions.
So it's basically an imaginary room with no windows, no doors, no walls, and a homicidal mime out back. In technical terms, it's a mushroom. ;-)
Have you, or anyone else reading this, had this problem?

I was wondering if somebody could recommend a book on the history of medicine, be it comprehensive or an introduction to the history of medicine. I know there are a lot of medical books that cover this subject, but given that I have a limited amount of time for reading I was wondering which book would make the best use of my time.

While it's not meant to be a history of all of medicine, I thought the The Emperor of All Maladies touched on a good deal of the history as the author took us through how cancers were diagnosed and treated since long ago.
Great book, that was.
I enjoyed "Doctors: the biography of Medicine" by Sherwin Nuland
It is not comprehensive, but covers the major eras of medicine.
Im sure there are many others.

You're being difficult today. I've had to work later than I'd planned and you're sulky about having to meet me later than agreed. You've decided to come to my work to try and convince me to leave.
I bring you up to my office. I've told you that I need to finish what I'm doing before I can leave. You're flirtatious and provocative, allowing me to see down your top as you lean over my desk and see far enough up your inner thigh from the way you're sitting to see the delicate skin that responded so well to being bitten hard.
We both know how this is going to go – you love pushing me to breaking point, the flash of satisfaction in your eyes when I finally lose my temper is proof of that and this time will be no exception.
I grab you by your hair. Loosely at first appearance, but with a deft motion, I turn my fingers in your hair until it feels as if my hand is holding your very skull itself. I drag you across to the window. My office is high above the city with full height glass windows.
I order you to put your hands on your head and stand you with your nose almost against the glass. The night is cold outside and your breath marks the glass.
I'm ripping your top open. Buttons bounce off the hard glass and lose themselves at the far corner of the room. Once again you'll be travelling home in ripped clothes, making you proud and ashamed all at once on the underground.
I've reached back to fetch a pair of scissors from my desk. You feel the cold steel blade on your belly and you draw breath. You can just about catch your own reflection in the glass, being held there against your will, what could be a knife blade being held just under your breasts. I slip the scissors under the front of your bra and cut it away. The cups fall away and the air hits your warm breasts.
I surprise you by taking a step back with you from the window, only to then lean you forward, feet behind yourself; it's only my grip in your hair that's keeping you from falling into the glass. I lower you until you can feel the cold air from the glass on your nipples. Helpless; looking out over the London skyline to your left and to the faceless glass of the next door office to the right.
Your nipples are so hard that they almost hurt and as I gently lower you onto the glass so they're the only parts of your body connected to the cold smooth window. Why is it that at times of such powerlessness, you can feel your mind relax so fully.
You can feel my hands working at your lower clothing and you know that soon you'll feel the familiar feeling of me working my fingers into you, forcing their way into your sex and anus at the same time, maybe you'll make a token effort to resist; enjoying feeling the mismatched battle between your internal muscles and my toned forearm.
I'm roughly sawing my fingers in and out of your holes, enjoying their territory, enjoying the discomfort its bringing you. I'm not the only one; as you stare you over the city, your nipples rock hard against the freezing glass, I can feel the juices in your pussy to start to flow as your breath deepens.
"What a compromising position to be seen in" I say as I tilt your head to the right
In the adjacent office block on the floor below ours a cleaner is cleaning the floor.
"All he has to do is look slightly up and he'll see you getting fingered like a slut for anyone to see" I whisper in your ear

Rated 5 out of 5 by m2leslie Great Dryer I am very please with this dryer. The multiple cycles are efficient and properly dry the various loads. My prior dryer need the be rerun to finish dryer heavier items. May 1, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by DesertDryer Love this Dryer - Steam is a plus! Great Dryer. Tons of different settings. Steam settings can be used to freshen or to sanitize. Large capacity for big items when needed and gentile enough not to damage delicate fabrics. April 17, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by Justin78787 Fantastic Dryer This is a fantastic Gas Dryer. It really does a stellar job. Paired with the matching washer, they make a perfect team. There are really only two features that keep it from being absolutely perfect: (1) the lint screen is not perfect and some lint makes it in to the exhaust duct and (2) the manual settings are not very easy to use. it's very easy to use one of the programed settings, but if you want to run a custom program, it's difficult to figure out how to do it. April 14, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by HappyinFlorida Excellent product, so glad I researched! I am a person who researches and researches before purchasing an appliance. Call it OCD or whatever, but I need to feel comfortable when I am buying my appliances. I went (repeatedly) to 5 different store, looked online endlessly through reviews, and I finally decided to bite the bullet and purchase the LG washer and dryer with stands. It's been a year now and I am as happy as I was with them the day they arrived. They look wonderful, are easy to use, and wash/dry beautifully. The multiple setting features are excellent and the quality is solid. I highly recommend them to anyone and everyone! April 13, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by FLB08824 Great Dry Bought the washer last year, it was great and knew dryer would also be great April 13, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Planopurist Superbly designed product! I love my gas dryer. It's very efficient and quiet. I would recommend gas over electric if you have the connection. This is my second LG dryer. I was so happy with the first model which I had for 10+ years, that I went back to them when it was time to purchase again. I have not tried the steam option as of yet, but I'm looking forward to it. Probably the most important feature to me is the sensor dry. February 20, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by BBOC Fantastic I bought this dryer and had high hopes for the steam feature (I do not iron nor do I like too) and this has been wonderful. March 31, 2014

Pink, Light Blue, HiLighter Yellow, White. The latest colors that Lat64 has in their Opto Line have been nice candy bright colors, east to see.
Or.....just park it, then it don't matter.
I like white, they seem to stand out for me.
Yay just ordered more vinyl... have not been dying anything for month....
It just so happens that like half my discs are red. I have never lost a red disc. I think i am only lucky though because they can be hard to see fall time in Michigan. I like white and blue too.
Every time I purchase a disc I look for yellow, orange, or pink. I like getting bright colors as they contrast against green, brown, and white (snow). This way I don't have to spend 15 mins looking for a tie-dye or some other color that camouflages easy.
Pink is normally what I go for. But Orange is good too. I think that Green discs fly the best though.

From Chris Jones Climbing In North America
from Chris Jones Climbing In North America
Yosemite Valley. It is the Fourth of July weekend in 1957. The heat is oppressive, and the campgrounds are overflowing. The roads are crowded with cars that make their way from viewpoint to store and back to viewpoint. Tourists idly drink Coke and tap time to the radio as they cruise up and down. They are in Yosemite for a good time. The scenery may be a bonus, but many of them would just as soon be at Las Vegas. They look upon Yosemite as an outdoor amusement park. There is a sense of bored pleasure seeking in the air.
This sense of ennui contrasts with the urgency of three grimy young men. They, too, seem oblivious to the scenery, but they are not bored. Harding, Feuerer, and Powell have just been aced out of Half Dome and are earnestly discussing their next move. A climbing revolution is about to take place in Yosemite, a revolution that in less than ten years will put American climbers at the forefront of the sport and influence mountaineering all over the world.
After grumbling around the valley in a "fit of egotistical pique," Harding decided to cap the Half Dome climb by a harder one. He looked across at the 3,000-foot south buttress of El Capitan and emphatically stated, "I'm gonna climb that god-damn line."
His concept was audacious. Yosemite climbers had never seriously considered El Capitan, for it was outside their frame of reference. With its uniform smoothness, its lack of resting places, and above all its overpowering size, it represented a new dimension in American climbing. It would obviously require a new approach. In anticipation of progress on the order of 100 feet a day, the trio agreed to work upward by a series of well-stocked camps linked together and to the ground by fixed ropes, somewhat analogous to Himalayan climbing. Once in place, the ropes could be climbed by slings and prusik knots, and the camps restocked with food and gear from below.
Harding and his friends scrounged what gear they could and set to work. The initial leads were hard. The blind or "bottoming" cracks buckled their pitons. They were forced to place several bolts in order to reach the first real ledge on the climb, Camp 1, 300 feet up the wall. Hard steel pitons would have been a godsend. Powell tried to trade for some Salathe pitons, but they were already collector's items, and he managed only to obtain a couple.
From Camp 1 they worked right and pendulumed into the awesome 400-foot Stoveleg Crack. Only four of their pitons were large enough to span its two-inch width. These were made from the sawed-off legs of a gas stove unearthed in the Berkeley city dump. When the leader had placed all of them, he lowered himself from the top piton and cleared out those below. This "leapfrogging" was a touchy business; the leader was poorly protected once he extracted the lower pitons. Stoveleg Crack was a scary place.
After seven days they descended. Although their gear was badly mauled, they were on their way. The ropes stretched 1,000 feet up the wall. On the ground they ran into an unexpected problem. Rubber-necking tourists had brought traffic to a standstill. The crusty chief ranger banned any further activity on El Cap during the peak tourist season from Memorial Day to Labor Day. Little was achieved apart from the replacement of borrowed ropes. In the fall, disaster struck. Powell smashed his ankle on a simple climb.
Through the winter Feuerer worked hard developing specialized gear. Although an ingenious craftsman, he had an unfortunate capacity for error. He was nicknamed the Dolt. He made several types of piton including an adjustable model consisting of two parts locked together by bolts. To ease the horrendous task of supplying the lead climbers with food and water, he built a cart out of aircraft parts and bicycle wheels. It would be loaded with gear and winched up the face by a capstan arrangement.
When they got back on the climb in the spring, they put the "Dolt Cart" through its paces. It had a tendency to go belly-up and was less than a sensation. The ground party in charge of loading the cart continually tried to please the climbers with new goodies. One blistering day the sent an ice-cold six-pack of beer up to Camp 2 (Dolt Tower). Harding and Powell took one look and knew better. Feuerer downed a couple of cans. After a moment's pause he sprang to his feet and announced that he was going to learn to fly. In spite of flying and the Dolt Cart they advanced the route to midheight before the summer recess insisted on by the chief ranger.
During the summer, rifts appeared in the team. With Powell partially disabled, Harding felt they were too weak to carry off the climb and invited others. Feuerer became disenchanted with climbing, quoted the Bible in letters to Harding, and left the team. In order to set Powell's broken ankle, the doctor fused the bone. Hampered by his disability, Powell was unable to play a major role in the climbing; on the first attempts he had done the bulk of the leading. Disturbed by the influx of newcomers and feeling less and less a part of the climb, he withdrew.
With his original partners out of the picture Harding drafted whomever he could. Most climbers did not want to be involved in such a long, drawn-out affair, and several of those who went up on the wall were overwhelmed by the scale and the exposure. El Capitan was a psychological frontier. About this time Royal Robbins almost became involved. Or did he? Robbins recollects that he got a postcard from Harding inviting him on board, an invitation he declined. Harding recalls a telephone conversation with Robbins. During the conversation Robbins reportedly said that, as Harding was not making much progress, he was thinking of getting up a team. He would use Harding's equipment as far as it went and then go for the top. And what was Harding's reaction to that, he wanted to know. "Fine by me," replied Harding and the after a distinct pause, "but exactly what would you say you had done?"
In any event Robbins never appeared on the rock, and in September 1958, Harding was back with a large party. In appalling heat they pushed the route upward only a couple of hundred feet in nine days: from the vicinity of El Cap Tower (Camp 3) to Camp 4 1,900 feet above the ground. Among other trials there was a logistical problem; the lead men consumed food and water faster than the haulers could bring it up. After this protracted struggle and two short skirmishes, the chief ranger gave Harding an ultimatum: either get up by Thanksgiving or abandon the climb. This unenforceable deadline did not bother Harding and Wayne Merry, who now emerged as his strongest partner. It was exactly their attitude as well; they were pretty sick of the whole affair.
Early in November with Rich Calderwood and George Whitmore in support, Harding and Merry set out on a determined bid. From Camp 4 they worked out under the Great Roof, a feared pitch that turned out to be reasonable, and up into the dihedrals that lead to the summit. Days passed. They established Camp 5 and then 6. On the evening of the ninth day a storm provided a welcome relief from the ceaseless hammering, the exposure, and the constant nervous tension. Holed up in Camp 6, Harding and Merry took stock of the situation. Below them they reckoned Whitmore was near Camp 4 ready to ferry up loads, and they knew Calderwood had already had his fill of El Capitan and had gone down. Ahead, they reckoned one long day might see them over the top.
On the morning of their eleventh day they heard a yodel from the top. Harding shouted a strangled reply through a mouthful of food. When they heard his squawk, his waiting friends became anxious. They decided the climbers were in a desperate fix and lowered them a rope. It was the last thing that Harding and Merry wanted. They had not come this far to be hauled off. The intended to finish under their own steam. In vain, they yelled up to their friends to get the "goddamn rope" the hell out of the way. The weather looked to be worsening, and Harding determined to go all out for the top and work through the night if necessary. By the light of his headlamp he drilled bolt holes in the overhanging headwall. Ironically, as he did, the rope hung within easy reach. He stuck to the lead without relief and placed twenty-six bolts. Just after sunrise he pulled himself over the top. El Capitan had been won, an enduring testament to man's spirit and a landmark in American climbing.

Ana takes on world No.66 Eugenie Bouchard in the second round of the Championships at Wimbledon on Wednesday. it will be the first meeting between the pair.
Bouchard is a 19-year-old Canadian who reached round two with a 5-7, 7-6, 6-4 victory over Galina Voskoboeva. This equals her best showing at a Grand Slam - she lost in the second round of the French Open last yeae in her majors debut.
Ana is looking to build upon her 7-6, 6-0 win over Virginie Razzano in round one on Monday. She said: "It was quite a tricky start because she gives you no rhythm. I served really, really well and that's such a positive on grass.
"As with all Grand Slams, the plan is to improve with each round. I can definitely be more aggressive than I was against Razzano and that's my goal."
Bouchard produced and starred in a popular YouTube video version of the Psy megahit "Gangnam Style" last year.

This is a list of proposed questions around which debate summaries will be build. If interested in playing one of the roles, add your name. See how to construct a debate summary for guidelines, and see especially the section titled how a debate summary is constructed. Add * after your name if you are not interested in playing the role of "lead summarist."
Debate Guide Project Director: Larry Sanger.
Does God exist?
- Available to moderate: Larry Sanger
- Affirmative ("The God of the monotheistic religions exists"):
- Negative ("The God of the monotheistic religions does not exist"): Larry Sanger*
- This is actually a question I honestly have no strong feelings about, and so could (consistently with my proposed rules) take the affirmative position (and, having taught the material many times, with gusto!), if no one else is available. I didn't put my name down on the affirmative side simply because I didn't want to give you the idea that one could propose to take both sides, which (the rules now say) you can't. Also, perhaps we should consider the "agnostic" side; but I would be inclined to make that a separate debate summary, about the question: "Is the existence of God knowable?" --Larry Sanger 21:32, 9 August 2006 (PDT)
- Larry, I suggest you shall be moderator only. There will be somebody available. Lets play clean from the beginning! --Math 22:37, 9 August 2006 (PDT)
- Your remarks here
- Available to moderate: Larry Sanger
- Affirmative ("We have some declarative knowledge" or should it be the easier modal version? "Declarative knowledge is possible"): Larry Sanger, --Math 06:44, 10 August 2006 (PDT)
- Negative ("Declarative knowledge is impossible"): Howard
- Your remarks here
- What fun. Could the moderator (or someone) define "declarative knowledge" for me? Or better, point to the outline and add some alternative definitions from the literature. (Use pointers, if it is in text that is not open source.) I don't think there is a definition that a basic scientists could accept, but I'm listening! Howard
Is free will compatible with determinism?
- Available to moderate:
- Affirmative (This is the compatibilist view) --Math 22:43, 9 August 2006 (PDT)
- Negative
- Your remarks here
Is the strong program of artificial intelligence possible?
- Available to moderate:
- Affirmative --Math 22:42, 9 August 2006 (PDT)

Shock-jock radio D.J. Grant Mazzy has, once again, been kicked off the Big City airwaves and now the only job he can get is the early morning show at CLSY Radio in the small town of Pontypool, which broadcasts from the basement of the small town's only church. What begins as another boring day of school bus cancellations due to yet another massive snow storm quickly becomes deadly. Bizarre reports start piling in of people developing strange speech patterns and committing horrendous acts of violence. But, there's nothing coming in on the news wires. So...is this really happening? Before long, Grant and the small staff at CLSY find themselves trapped in the radio station as they discover that this insane behavior taking over the town is caused by a deadly virus that may be spreading as a direct result of their radio transmissions. Now, they must shut up or die.

Read past issues of the magazine Le Moyne College Raises More Than $5,000 for Hurricane Relief SupportSYRACUSE, N.Y. (For Immediate Release) … Le Moyne College has raised $5,100 for Hurricane Sandy relief efforts through multiple initiatives this past semester on the campus. The funds will go to Catholic Charities to aid in their outreach to Rockaway and Breezy Point, and to Covenant House to provide temporary shelter to those whose homes were destroyed in the storm. Half of the total, $2,500, was donated by the Le Moyne Student Programming Board from proceeds of the Snow Ball, which took place on the campus recently. In addition, the following organizations held special events and collections over the past month: Administrative Forum, Habitat for Humanity, Campus Ministry, Physician Assistant Student Society, Student Environmental Coalition, Office of Service Learning, Madden School of Business and the Wellness Center for Health and Counseling. Other efforts included the College's Coat and Blanket Drive, which yielded over 100 donations that were delivered to the First Congregational Church of Rockaway Beach in Rockaway Beach, Brooklyn. In addition, Le Moyne's American Red Cross Club hosted a blood drive that yielded 71 pints of blood. "It was immensely gratifying to see the Le Moyne community – faculty, staff and students – come together to participate in this outreach effort," said Gloria Heffernan, director of the Office of Service Learning. "Our Ignatian ideals of service and concern for the whole person were truly demonstrated by the entire College." Over the Christmas break, Le Moyne students who live in the New York City area will be participating in service projects in the community of Breezy Point helping with mold removal, administrative support and food distribution, in conjunction with the Breezy Point Fire Department's Pump and Gut Operation. Plans are also underway to organize a service immersion trip during spring break. #####posted on: 12/11/2012

En español | I went through nearly all my cash at my local farmers market yesterday. There are just so many temptations this time of year — corn fresh from the field, baskets of ripe tomatoes, and mounds of eggplant, zucchini and yellow squash. But what to do with all the warm weather harvest? Try any of these easy summer vegetable casseroles.
Each of these casseroles has a very different look and feel, but their preparations and cooking techniques are the same. Just preheat the oven, toss prepared vegetables with olive oil, turn them into a 13-by-9-inch pan, set the pan in the oven, and then go about your business for the next half hour. At that point, give the vegetables a quick stir (or in the case of the eggplant dish, top the veggies with cheese and bread crumbs). Now it's time to start setting the table and making a salad, because dinner is just 10 minutes away.
Since these vegetables are so abundant now, you might want to double the recipe. If so, pull out your heavy-duty roasting pan for the Tomato-Zucchini Casserole and the Yellow Squash-Succotash Casserole. Both of these dishes refrigerate or even freeze well, which means you can just heat and serve your next meal.
To enjoy the Eggplant Parmesan a second time, simply roast the eggplant and tomatoes in two 8-inch pans (or two 13-by-9 inch pans for a double recipe). At the 30-minute mark, sprinkle the first night's portion with bread crumbs and cheese, but cool the second pan to room temperature and refrigerate. For an easy second meal, warm up the eggplant slices (if your pan is made of glass or pottery you can do it in the microwave), then top the eggplant with cheese and bread crumbs and bake or broil until golden.
Summer harvest doesn't last long, so let's enjoy it. Soon it'll be time to take on fall's root vegetables and hearty greens.
Tomato-Zucchini Casserole
Serves 4 to 6
- 2 medium-large zucchini (about 1 1/4 pounds), trimmed, quartered lengthwise and diced
- 1 pint cherry tomatoes
- 1 large onion cut into large dice
- 1 large garlic clove, minced
- 1 teaspoon dried Italian herbs
- Salt and ground black pepper
- 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
- 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
Adjust oven rack to lower-middle position and heat oven to 425º F. Toss all ingredients, including a sprinkling of salt and pepper, with oil and vinegar in a 13-by-9-inch pan. Roast vegetables, stirring once at 30 minutes, until fully cooked and most of the liquid has evaporated — about 45 minutes total. Adjust seasonings and serve.

A classic look at Michigan Stadium on gameday! Anyone who has been to The Big House for a game knows that it is an experience unmatched in sports - constant waves of Blue-and-Maize insanity! This old-school view features an end zone view of the action during the 1996 season opener against Illinois. Like all prints in photographer Rob Arra's Everlasting Images series, every detail is in perfect focus, and as you pan across the image you feel like you are there, cheering on the Wolverines in the second quarter of a huge rivalry matchup. You can read the scoreboard, see the players on the sideline and on the field, and look at individual people in this 100,000-plus mass of humanity. If you've been to a game, or even if you're an armchair fan, you'll love this piece - just looking at it brings back a flood of Saturday afternoon memories. Worthy of a nice frame and a central location on your sports wall-of-fame! Note: this item is now out-of-print; limited quantity remains in our warehouse.
