Extra Week Of Rest Allows Panthers To Be Very Healthy For 49ers
The Carolina Panthers were thrilled to get the first-round bye in the NFL playoffs because it meant one less game between them and the Super Bowl. They were also very grateful for it because it allowed a number of players to fully heal up.
Carolina Panthers Focused, Intimidating For First Playoff Game In Years
The Carolina Panthers have had an extra week off to prepare for their first playoff game in years, but they haven't taken the time off from preparing. They have been focusing on whichever team they may face and they are looking to be a team that is not only good, but one that is feared.

Product reviews from the Crutchfield Labs A Truly All-in-one Mobile Sound Solution Written by Dave Delamere, Copywriter, on 8/9/2012 10:51:00 AM Almost seeming too good to be true, the Etón Rukus Solar provides an easy sound option that can literally be used anywhere. The two things that I wanted to test were the battery life and sound quality. To test battery life, I connected the my Android smartphone via Bluetooth® and started streaming music. I let the Rukus run for approximately 6 hours without the solar panel charging, and the battery usage was just over half down. That was impressive. The sound quality was very good. Is it going to provide big concert sound? No, certainly not. It's great as a portable audio option to take to the beach, play on your boat, or listen on the back deck. Think of it as a compact boombox. I streamed the MOG music service to the Rukus, and just let it do its thing. Oh, and when I set it in the sun for recharging, the Rukus also charged my Android through a charging cable. It's a great all-purpose piece with uses I probably haven't even considered yet. A great addition to the Etón line Written by Ralph Graves, Staff Writer - Creative, on 7/5/2012 1:08:00 PM With the Rukus, I feel like Etón's line of solar-powered speaker systems have come of age. First, it's Bluetooth-enabled, so I (and any of my friends) can use it with any smartphone, PDA, or tablet. Pairing was pretty simple, too. I held down the Bluetooth button for 3 seconds until the Rukus beeped at me. When it showed up on my smartphone's Bluetooth menu, I selected it and the music started playing right away. Second, it's made for outdoor use. It uses an E-ink screen, which is important, because it won't wash out in direct sunlight. And for a device that gets recharged by sunlight, that's a good thing. It also has a stretch pouch in the back that's just the right size for a smartphone. Third, it sounds pretty darned good. And the bass boost really works. What are the Labs? Sorry, the Etón Rukus Solar is no longer available. Looking for a similar item? Shop all Wireless Home Speakers Or, you can still... Write a review Download the product manual Search the website Go

Genoa are one of Italian football's most high-profile clubs, but that status does not necessarily stem from their impressive array of silverware, given that their quest for an elusive tenth league title has now lasted for 88 years.
Indeed, the venerable Liguria team are as well-known for their breakthrough achievements: the first to win the Italian championship in 1898, the first to establish an U-16 youth academy in 1902, the first to play a game abroad in Nice in 1903, the first to lay on a train for away supporters in 1906 and then a boat in 1922, the first to play in Argentina and Uruguay in 1923, and the first to go through a 34-match league season unbeaten, also in 1923.
As part of its series on classic clubs, FIFA.com charts the history of a fascinating outfit striving to relive past glories.
Birth of an institution
Genoa Cricket and Football Club was officially founded on 7 September 1893, making it the oldest existing Italian side. British businessmen were at the root of the club's formation, especially future tycoon Sir Charles Alfred Payton, then British Consul to Italy in Genoa. The development of the nearby port and markets had led to a significant presence of Britons in the city, and the 'British sporting club abroad' that they created was initially reserved for the Queen's subjects only.
However, the arrival of English doctor James Richardson Spensley, the club's first coach, would change all of that. On 10 April 1897, he opened the doors to Italians wishing to join, limiting it to 50 applicants at first, before removing all restraints to enrollment in the years that followed. On 2 January 1899, the club adopted the name 'Genoa Cricket and Football Club', which became 'Genoa 1893' in 1930, before reverting to its original moniker in 1998.
The making of a legend
The early years were marked by glorious success, as I Rossoblu racked up six league titles between 1898 and 1904. Their all-conquering XI – Baird, De Galleani, Ghigliotti, Pasteur, Spensley, Ghiglione, Le Pelley, Bertollo, Dapples, Bocciardo, Leaver – would reign over the Italian game for the best part of a decade.
The majority of these embryonic championships took place over one day, and generally involved just four or five teams. Two Turin-based sides, Internazionale Torino and FBC Torinese, as well as Unione Pro Sport Alessandria, Sampierdarenese – which would later merge with another club to become Sampdoria – and even the crew of British navy vessel HMS Clementine, constituted some of Genoa's rivals during this successful era.
Over the years, the league expanded to include rising forces such as Milan, Pro Vercelli and Andrea Doria. To deal with this increased level of competition, Genoa, whose star players had seen age catch up with them by then, took the ground-breaking step of hiring Italian football's first-ever professional coach, William Garbutt, on 30 July 1912.
Under the Englishman's tutelage, the club continued to dominate the domestic championship, winning three further league crowns and narrowly missing out on two others, all the while providing a healthy contingent of players for the Italian national team. After the First World War had ended, the league resumed in 1919, and Genoa took up where they had left off, bringing in future international brothers Augusto and Giacomo Bergamino, as well as forward Guglielmo Brezzi.
During season 1922/23, Il Grifone, at the peak of their powers, won the Scudetto in style, negotiating 34 matches without suffering a single defeat. The following campaign saw them claim their last title to date, after which they would unfortunately enter a long period of mediocrity.
Genoa oscillated between Serie A and Serie B over the next few decades, always managing to earn promotion back to the top flight, as demonstrated by their six Serie B championships attained between 1935 and 1989, but never able to truly recreate those memorable triumphs of the past.
The present
After having reached their nadir in 2005 with relegation to Serie C, Genoa won two successive promotions to make a remarkable return to the top flight, and they followed that up with a best-ever finish in the modern era, securing fifth place during season 2008/09. That achievement enabled the side from north-west Italy to enjoy another taste of European football, 17 years after their previous participation.
Three years down the line, that particular feat appears to have been nothing more than a flash in the pan, as Genoa's tendency to blow hot and cold has since seen them serve up two mid-table finishes and a relegation battle to their long-suffering and loyal supporters.
The stadium
Genoa's first stadium, which was built on land gifted to the club by two Scottish industrialists, was officially opened prior to the Genoa-Inter Milan match of 22 January 1911. The British-style arena originally boasted a capacity of 20,000, prior to the construction of the north and south stands, where the oldest supporters' clubs could be found.
On 1 January 1933, the stadium was renamed 'Stadio Luigi Ferraris', after a former captain of the side who was killed in the First World War. Regarded as the most modern ground of its time, its capacity was increased to 40,000 on 27 May 1934 for the FIFA World Cup™ match between Spain and Brazil.
The biggest crowd to ever fill the stadium for a club match was 57,815, which came about during a Serie A derby match between Genoa and city rivals Sampdoria on 28 November 1982. The overall record of over 60,000 was set during Italy's 4-1 victory over Portugal on 27 February 1949.
With the 1990 FIFA World Cup approaching, the stadium was completely demolished and rebuilt between July 1987 and September 1989. The work was stretched out over two years, and completed section by section, so that Genoa and Sampdoria could continue to fulfil their fixtures. The Luigi Ferraris' current capacity is 36,536 seats, all of which are protected from the elements.

Product Description
This 1000 piece jigsaw has thousands of miniature photographs combine to make one awesome portrait!
So incomparable are the images created through this new medium, that Photomosaics™ have been the focus of national media attention. They have been the subject of a best selling book, high profile ad campaigns, specially commissioned portraits and dozens of national magazine covers.
While still a student at MIT's media lab, Robert Silvers created a new technology that changed the nature of art, photography, and computer graphics. This development, called Photomosaics, is a method of arranging thousands of tiny photographs that when viewed from a distance, combine to form a single larger image.
Photomosaic is a trademark of Runaway Technology, Inc.
What are Mosaics? Mosaics, one of the oldest forms of surface decoration,date back to the 4th-3rd millennium BC. Mosaics take on apainted effect by forming pictures or patterns fromcompositions of small pieces of various colored materials(glass, stone, ceramics, metals, ect). The most well known mosaics were produced during the Byzantine Empire (4th to6th century) in Ravenna, Italy. Today, in the age of computers, mosaics have taken on anew form. In 1995 Rob Silvers utilized computers tocombine thousands of photographs to make digital mosaics.

Amylase, Pancreatic, Body Fluid
Clinical Information Discusses physiology, pathophysiology, and general clinical aspects, as they relate to a laboratory test
Amylases are a group of hydrolases that degrade complex carbohydrates into fragments.
Amylase is produced by the exocrine pancreas and the salivary glands to aid in the digestion of starch. It is also produced by the small intestine mucosa, ovaries, placenta, liver, and fallopian tubes.
Since the clinical use of amylase activity is usually to detect pancreatitis, the p-amylase form provides a useful test in the laboratory diagnosis of acute pancreatitis.
Pleural effusion may occur secondary to inflammatory pancreatic disease. Exocrine products of the pancreas will occur in such body fluids.
Useful For Suggests clinical disorders or settings where the test may be helpful
Pancreatic amylase will most frequently be ordered as a serum test to detect acute pancreatitis.
If a pleural effusion occurs as a complication of acute pancreatitis, excessive amounts of pancreatic amylase (p-amylase) in the effusion points to pancreatitis as the cause.
Interpretation Provides information to assist in interpretation of the test results
Elevated pleural effusion alpha-amylase suggests acute pancreatitis as the cause of the effusion.
Cautions Discusses conditions that may cause diagnostic confusion, including improper specimen collection and handling, inappropriate test selection, and interfering substances
Serum reference values are not applicable to body fluid specimens. There are no established reference values for body fluid specimens.
Reference Values Describes reference intervals and additional information for interpretation of test results. May include intervals based on age and sex when appropriate. Intervals are Mayo-derived, unless otherwise designated. If an interpretive report is provided, the reference value field will state this.

We have a confession to make: We've been dreaming about a spending spree, Cher Horowitz style. Maybe it's the fact that we've been wearing our winter staples for months now, or maybe that little groundhog and his nonexistent shadow got us pining for spring, but either way, a hole is waiting to be burnt into our parka pockets. Unfortunately, logging onto Shopbop and ordering up a whole closetful of new cold-weather threads isn't exactly the most practical move — especially when we've got, you know, rent to pay.
So, to cure that craving and keep from going broke, we've narrowed down the selection and picked out our absolute favorite pieces that'll work overtime. This handy guide will help you figure out just what you need to bring a second life to your trustiest winter pieces. From a bright beanie to some snazzy sneakers, each of these goodies will feed your fashion fire, without forcing you to cut up your credit cards.

Question: Do we unplug Maxtor from Power Supply and MOBO?
Either is OK.
If it was me I'd unplug the IDE cable from the back of the Maxtor during the install and then afterwards plug in the last connector on the IDE cable, (the black one), not the gray one.
This will match the cabling up with the way the Maxtor is jumpered, ie. Master device at the end of the cable.
But the power connector is the easiest to get to if you're not bothered.

The Maltby KE4 SF-1 driver geometry was inspired by the F-117 Nighthawk Stealth Fighter for improved aerodynamics and eye-catching aesthetics. Precision Forged using multiple forging steps results in extremely tight fitting titanium shell components as well as denser, tighter material grain structure for improved sound and feel. Because the titanium shell components fit so precisely, valuable weight is saved during the plasma welding process to allow for a 198 gram head weight using an interchangeable 6 gram screw weight without sacrificing the 460cc volume. Because the KE4 head weight can be adjusted from 194 to 206 grams, the custom shaft length and weight options are nearly endless.

The Migration Policy Institute celebrated its first decade as the authoritative, unimpeachable resource on immigration and immigrant integration analysis and policy design in the United States and internationally.
While policymakers are under increasing pressure to reduce illegal immigration, the estimated population of unauthorized immigrants in EU-15 countries has declined since 2002. European governments are collaborating on the management of their external borders, as this report details, discussing the detected and estimated scope of irregular migration in the European Union.
This Council Statement for the fifth plenary meeting of the Transatlantic Council on Migration captures key elements of deliberations on the best ways to bring greater order and legality to migration, border management, and labor market systems through transatlantic cooperation.
This volume from MPI's Transatlantic Council on Migration aims to fill the analytical gap regarding the question of what greater global cooperation on governing the flow of international migrants could achieve.The book focuses on a set of fundamental questions: What are the key steps to building a better, more cooperative system of governance? What are the goals that can be achieved through greater international cooperation? And, most fundamentally, who (or what) is to be governed?
This final report summarizes and reflects upon the key findings of the Improving EU and U.S. Immigration Systems: Learning from Experience comparative research project undertaken by MPI and the European University Institute through a grant from the European Commission.
This Council Statement from the sixth plenary meeting of the Transatlantic Council on Migration provides an overview of the Council's discussions on how states can work together to move beyond the mantra of "global governance," and begin taking concrete actions in pursuit of a shared agenda of safe, secure, legal, and orderly migration.
Migrants from the Philippines and Sri Lanka have taken on a growing role in filling labor shortages in Jordan, leading to significant challenges surrounding the recruitment of these foreign workers. Based on interviews with government officials in sending and receiving countries and focus groups with migrants, the report analyzes the role of private recruitment agencies and points to oversight gaps.

Parting Shot: Holiday Anxiety Is Perfectly Captured In This Peanuts/Louis C.K. Mash-Up
Louie, the FX show created and produced by comedian Louis C.K., ranks right up there with Dan Harmon's Community as one of the most innovative comedies on TV today. As such, when I initially saw this brilliant video mash-up of Louie and the Peanuts gang, with Louie as Charlie Brown, my first thought was that it could easily be a clip from the show itself.

Im new to this forum sorry if i posted in the wrong area. I recently just bought a miller bobcat 250nt with only 25 hours on it, 200 feet of cable, a Hobart suitcase wire feeder flux core only. And a ton of welding rods and spools of wire i got the whole setup for 1800 and felt like i stole it.... so my question is.. what do i need to set this machine up for carbon air arc gouging and what is a good setup for reasonable money it will not be used 40 hrs a week but i do want a capable setup. I also already have a portable compressor too. If anyone has a uses setup let me know
I am also looking for a better suitcase wire feeder that i can run gas. Thanks matt

A K2000 (built by Victor) would be the size I recommend, if I was to use that machine. I would not try to do a lot at one time with it though. That machine is towards the small end of the spectrum for that process but it can be done. You just have to be patient and take it easy.

i have an air arc, i have owned and used it for many years, a good tool to have, just be aware of the shooting sparks
Welcome to the forum.
Arcair K2000 is a good choice or similar. 3/16" cac rods, machine set at about 225 amps dc+ (about 90%). I was always told it is not good to run a machine at 100% when gouging. Good air supply, ear plugs & watch where the sparks are going. I have an IR wheelbarrow type compressor & it just keeps up for gouging cracks etc with a K2000 torch. I'm not doing any major gouging with it, if I was I would a larger air supply & a bigger welder.MM250

need help carbon air arc gouging...
Yep u stole it, wish I could find those deals!!
All u need is a torch, rods, & air supply.
I used a bobcat 225 but was just not enough amps for 3/16 rods.
250 will be maxed out but will work.
Also u can buy 1/8 rods that will help, should work fine with them.

As mentioned a k200 torch and 3/16 rods. That machine will self destruct if you push it with the gouging. Small machines like that are hard to gouge with as they do not have the power to remove the material completly and you end up with carbon residue in the kerf and the small machines will not get under it to blow it out of the way.

Chronicle of the Maya Kings and Queens: Deciphering the Dynasties of the Ancient Maya
Thames & Hudson, 2008 - 240 pages
Behind the ancient cities of the Maya and their abandoned artworks lie the turbulent stories of their ruling dynasties. One of the world's greatest and most powerful civilizations, the Maya experienced constant conflict in a landscape divided among numerous kingdoms. Intense rivalries, rapacious conquerors, and repeated dynastic defeat and breakdown are common themes in many tales of this mighty civilization.
The ancient Maya remain one of the most vibrant areas of study in world archaeology. Fresh discoveries in the field, together with the ongoing process of hieroglyphic decipherment, mean that information is constantly coming to light. This new version of the only comprehensive, kingdom-by-kingdom history of the ancient Maya brings the story fully up to date with previously unknown rulers and new glyphic readings, as well as additional information on diplomacy and warfare.

Interpretive Handbook
60618 :
Alpha-L-Iduronidase, Blood
Clinical Information Discusses physiology, pathophysiology, and general clinical aspects, as they relate to a laboratory test
The mucopolysaccharidoses (MPS) are a group of lysosomal storage disorders caused by the deficiency of any of the enzymes involved in the stepwise degradation of dermatan sulfate, heparan sulfate, keratan sulfate, or chondroitin sulfate (glycosaminoglycans; GAG). Accumulation of GAG (previously called mucopolysaccharides; MPS) in lysosomes interferes with normal functioning of cells, tissues, and organs. There are 11 known disorders that involve the accumulation of GAG. MPS disorders involve multiple organ systems characterized by coarse facial features, cardiac abnormalities, organomegaly, intellectual disabilities, short stature, and skeletal abnormalities.
Mucopolysaccharidosis I (MPS I) is an autosomal recessive disorder caused by a reduced or absent activity of the enzyme alpha-L-iduronidase due to mutations in the IDUA gene. More than 100 mutations have been reported in individuals with MPS I. Deficiency of alpha-L-iduronidase can result in a wide range of phenotypes categorized into 3 syndromes: Hurler syndrome (MPS IH), Scheie syndrome (MPS IS), and Hurler-Scheie syndrome (MPS IH/S). Because these syndromes cannot be distinguished biochemically, they are also referred to as MPS I and attenuated MPS I.
Clinical features and severity of symptoms of MPS I are variable, ranging from severe disease to an attenuated form that generally presents at a later onset with a milder clinical presentation. In general, symptoms may include coarse facies, progressive dysostosis multiplex, hepatosplenomegaly, corneal clouding, hearing loss, intellectual disabilities or learning difficulties, and cardiac valvular disease. The incidence of MPS I is approximately 1 in 100,000 live births. Treatment options include hematopoietic stem cell transplantation and enzyme replacement therapy.
A diagnostic workup in an individual with MPS I typically demonstrates elevated levels of urinary GAG (MPSQN / Mucopolysaccharides [MPS], Quantitative, Urine) and increased amounts of both dermatan and heparan sulfate detected on thin-layer chromatography (MPSSC / Mucopolysaccharides [MPS] Screen, Urine). Reduced or absent activity of alpha L-iduronidase in blood spots (IDSBS / Alpha-L-Iduronidase, Blood Spot), fibroblasts (IDST / Alpha-L-Iduronidase, Fibroblasts), leukocytes, or whole blood can confirm a diagnosis of MPS I; however, enzymatic testing is not reliable for carrier detection. Molecular sequence analysis of the IDUA gene allows for detection of the disease-causing mutation in affected patients and subsequent carrier detection in relatives. To date, a clear genotype-phenotype correlation has not been established.
Useful For Suggests clinical disorders or settings where the test may be helpful
Diagnosis of mucopolysaccharidosis I, Hurler, Scheie, and Hurler-Scheie syndromes in whole blood
Interpretation Provides information to assist in interpretation of the test results
Specimens with results <1.0 nmol/h/mL in properly submitted specimens are consistent with alpha-L-iduronidase deficiency (mucopolysaccharidosis I). Further differentiation between Hurler, Scheie, and Hurler-Scheie is dependent on the clinical findings.
Normal results (> or =1.0 nmol/h/mL) are not consistent with alpha-L-iduronidase deficiency.
Cautions Discusses conditions that may cause diagnostic confusion, including improper specimen collection and handling, inappropriate test selection, and interfering substances
The presence of a pseudodeficiency allele may cause reduced activity of alpha-L-iduronidase in the artificial substrate used in this assay. This can result in values below the normal reference range, but will typically be greater than levels found in patients with mucopolysaccharidosis I (MPS I).
This test cannot reliably determine carrier status for MPS I.
This test does not differentiate between Hurler and Scheie syndromes.
Reference Values Describes reference intervals and additional information for interpretation of test results. May include intervals based on age and sex when appropriate. Intervals are Mayo-derived, unless otherwise designated. If an interpretive report is provided, the reference value field will state this.
> or = 1.0 nmol/h/mL

Spending cuts proposed by City Council members would reduce Mayor Tom Henry's 2013 budget by about $2.2 million, trimming several staff positions and even one whole department.
In all, council members submitted nearly 30 individual cuts – although some of the ideas overlapped – according to information provided by city Clerk Sandra Kennedy's office.
Henry's budget calls for a tax increase of about 6 percent on most property owners to close a $6 million deficit in the spending plan. Even if council approves all the spending cuts, the city would need to either raise taxes by at least 3 percent or use money from its cash reserves to balance the budget.
As expected, Councilman John Crawford, R-at large, requested that the city's overall property tax collections for 2013 be lowered by about $6 million from $112.2 million to just over $106 million. He and other Republicans have suggested using some of the cash reserves or $75 million "Legacy" fund -- created from the lease and sale of the old City Light utility -- to fill the budget gap without raising taxes.
The 28 proposed cuts range from small items – such as $500 from council's public relations budget – to large, such as a proposal by Councilman Marty Bender, R-at large, to eliminate the city's whole internal audit department and its $272,971 budget.
Councilman Russ Jehl, R-2nd, proposed a $300,000 cut to the maintenance program for the Citizens Square building, along with the city's $500,000 share of a new city-county 911 phone system, which he said would likely be paid for with other funds.
Several Republican members targeted the mayor's office's budget for a $50,000 cut that would eliminate a community liaison job. Jehl also suggested not replacing two retiring employees – one in the city clerk's office and one in property management.
Councilmen Mitch Harper, R-4th, and Geoff Paddock, D-5th, each proposed canceling a 2 percent raise for elected officials, which would affect council, the mayor and the city clerk. Most city employees are scheduled to get the raise next year.
On Tuesday, council is expected to discuss the cuts and take an initial vote on Henry's $174 million spending plan -- $140 million of which is supported by property taxes. The budget is scheduled for final passage Oct. 23.

Oral Cancer Checkups Protect Lives
Seeing your dentist twice a year can help you keep your teeth and gums healthy. But those regular dental checkups can also catch oral cancers early, when they are easiest to treat.
Oral cancer starts on the lips or in these areas of the mouth (also called the oral cavity):
Front two-thirds of the tongue
Lining of the cheeks
Floor of the mouth
Roof of the mouth toward the front (hard palate)
Area behind the wisdom teeth
Oropharyngeal cancer, another type of oral cancer, is found in the throat behind the mouth (or oropharynx) in these areas:
Middle of the throat
Back third of the tongue
Roof of the mouth toward the back (soft palate)
Side and back walls of the throat
Most oral and oropharyngeal cancers are squamous cell carcinomas. The type of cancer you have will determine your treatment options.
Common symptoms
Early detection and treatment are essential to preventing the spread of cancer cells to the lymph nodes and neck. Unfortunately, many people put off regular dental exams, delaying diagnosis and increasing their chances of a poor outcome.
You can help your dentist by performing your own self-examination between your regular visits, especially if you have risk factors for oral or oropharyngeal cancer. Use a hand-held mirror to check for any signs and symptoms of cancer in your mouth and throat.
These are common signs and symptoms of oral cancer:
White, red, or white and red patches on your gums, tongue, or lining of your mouth
A sore on your lip or in your mouth that will not heal
Bleeding in your mouth
Loose teeth
Difficulty or pain when swallowing
Difficulty wearing dentures
A lump in your mouth, tongue, or neck
An earache
Chronic hoarseness
Tell your dentist or health care provider if you have any of these symptoms. He or she will be able to tell you if they are a sign of cancer. Dentists are specially trained to look for symptoms of cancer in the mouth and throat.
Risk factors
The 2 most common risk factors for oral cancers are tobacco use — both smoking and using smokeless tobacco — and frequent alcohol use. Besides alcohol and tobacco, these are other risk factors for oral cancer:
Prolonged sun exposure. This raises the risk for lip cancer.
Advancing age. The risk increases after age 35.
Gender. The risk is twice as great if you are a man. This may be because men are more likely than women to drink and smoke.
Infection with HPV (human papillomavirus).
Heavy drinking and smoking. The risk for oral cancer may be up to 100 times greater in people who drink or smoke heavily than in those who don't drink or smoke.
You can lower your chances of getting oral or oropharyngeal cancer by avoiding the common risk factors. Some risk factors — like family history of oral or oropharyngeal cancer, age, and gender — can't be avoided, though. Eating a healthy diet that includes plenty of fruits and vegetables, using sunscreen on your lips, and getting regular oral cancer screenings with your dentist can also help lower your risk for oral cancer.

Within the ancient Greek region of Arcadia in the southern Peloponnesos, the sanctuary of Zeus on Mt. Lykaion stands out for its great fame, mysterious rituals and wide-ranging significance. This site, located on the modern-day mountain of Agios Elias, held fascination for the ancient Greeks and has continued to be important for modern-day scholars of archaeology, classics, and Greek religion. The research program, co-sponsored by the Greek Archaeological Service under the auspices of the American School of Classical Studies at Athens, seeks to answer questions about the origins of Greek cult of Zeus and the origins of Greek athletics. The summer 2010 field season at the Sanctuary of Zeus on Mt. Lykaion will have three major aspects : excavation, architectural documentation and topographical survey in addition to ongoing geological, geophysical and historical surveys.

Little is known about the small monasteries in Latin Christendom from the 7th to the 10th centuries. Were these modest versions of the large monastic houses or forerunners of the pieve, community churches? How did these settlements function within a landscape of small, nucleated villages? This project aims to carefully document one such monastery, San Pietro d'Asso, to attempt to answer these questions. San Pietro was a royal foundation and subject of dispute between the bishops of Arezzo and Siena. Founded by King Aripert I around AD 643, it is situated just west of the Via Cassia, a key pilgrimage route. The present hilltop site includes stone architecture, and is covered with abundant 10th century artifacts. Below the hill, close to the Asso river, lie the remains of a Roman settlement. Students will learn archaeological field methods through hands-on work at two sites: the bishop's complex at Pava in San Giovanni d'Asso and the hilltop site of San Pietro d'Asso. The initial field season of research will include a geophysical survey of the hilltop to establish the density of occupation as well as the collection and study of the surface artifacts and ceramics. Preparations will be made for excavation of hilltop structures, in search of fortifications and stratified artifact deposits.

Vineland was established in 1861 as a planned supply center (stores, churches, schools and homes) for a large, newly opened agricultural region set up in the Pine Barrens. During the Victorian Period it was successfully settled and then went on in the 20th century to become (in its municipal boundaries) the largest city in the state. Since 2001 Penn students have been exploring the backyards of historic homes inside the town center. Read more about the South Jersey Project

Same Universe, Different Lenses: Science, Ethics, and Religion in Dialogue
This is a transcript of an interview given by Dr. Jennifer Wiseman at The Faith Angle Forum Conference on Religion, Politics, & Public Life on November 5, 2013.

This is a transcript of an interview given by Dr. Jennifer Wiseman at The Faith Angle Forum Conference on Religion, Politics, & Public Life on November 5, 2013.
Evolution includes random factors in both genetic mutation and natural selection. In popular usage, "random" often means "without purpose." Some atheists have described evolution as proceeding by "blind, purposeless chance." But to scientists, "chance" simply means unpredictability. God could choose to use random, unpredictable processes to accomplish his purposes in creation.
NASA astronomer Jennifer Wiseman asserts that studying creation can show us the nature of God; science can inform us of what we need to do as stewards of God's creation; understanding the natural world gives us a deeper knowledge of Jesus Christ; and science can give us a better understanding of ourselves. This essay was presented at the November 2009 Theology of Celebration Workshop.
Many independent measurements have established that the Earth and the universe are billions of years old. Geologists have found annual layers in glaciers that can be counted back 740,000 years. Using the known rate of change in radio-active elements (radiometric dating), some Earth rocks have been shown to be billions of years old, while the oldest solar system rocks are dated at 4.6 billion years. Astronomers use the distance to galaxies and the speed of light to calculate that the light has been traveling for billions of years. The expansion of the universe gives an age for the universe as a whole: 13.7 billion years old.
(Updated April 16, 2012)
The most ancient and persistent objection to God's existence is the problem of evil. How can a loving, powerful God allow so much evil and suffering in the world? The problem of evil has no simple answer, but many philosophers, theologians and others have developed helpful insights.
Fine-tuning refers to the surprising precision of nature's physical constants, and the beginning state of the Universe. To explain the present state of the universe, even the best scientific theories require that the physical constants of nature and the beginning state of the Universe have extremely precise values.

Good morning everyone! I want to share my birthday wish with everyone.
I wish that the Dolphins have a winning record this year that produces a qb throwing for over 3k yards and more than 20 touchdowns and to at least make it as a wild card to qualify for the playoffs. I also wish that my experience as a first time season ticket holder will not be disappointed with losses as I will be flying in from Bethlehem, Pa at least every other home game. Yes, I love the Dolphins and no matter how far, I will be there to support them!! Unrealisitc or not. I also wish that we draft either Michael Floyd or Justin Blackmon as our top wide receiver for this upcoming draft. Again unrealistic but its my birthday and I'll wish it : )

Jim Hamilton returns from Scotland duty to skipper Gloucester against Sale this week, while Charlie Sharples is back having been with England.
The return of Hamilton and Sharples helps to offset the loss of Ben Morgan who will start against South Africa for England at Twickenham.
However, the core of the team is the one that started against London Welsh last weekend.
Shane Monahan moves from the right wing to the left to accommodate the return of Sharples, while Hamilton lining up alongside Will James in the second row means that Tom Savage goes to 6.
Other changes see Dan Murphy start at loosehead instead of Nick Wood and Sione Kalamafoni returns from injury to replace Morgan.
Sale travel south occupying 12th place in the Aviva Premiership table. However, their form seems to have picked up in recent weeks.
As a result, Gloucester's Director of Rugby Nigel Davies stressed this week that Sale's league position is somewhat misleading, and that they shouldn't be underestimated.
"You look at their squad and they've an excellent squad of players. We have to respect that," he said.
"They'll be disappointed with where they are in the league and will be desperate for a win to get themselves back on track.
"We have total respect for them but, if we want to remain a top four team, then we have to prepare mentally, and turn up mentally in the right place, for every game we play.
"We've got good momentum going into the game. We've been able to rotate the squad a little bit in recent weeks. So, everyone has had a bit of game time and is fresh and raring to go."
Meanwhile, Sale have named their strongest side as they look to back up their opening victory over the Premiership season when they beat London Irish at Salford City Stadium.
Rob Miller returns to the full-back jersey while Charlie Amesbury comes in for Cameron Shepherd on the wing. With Johnny Leota away on international duty with Samoa, Will Addison is at 13 alongside Sam Tuitupou. David Seymour leads from the openside flank.
Form: Gloucester tripped up to table-topping Harlequins in round eight of the Aviva Premiership - only their second defeat in the competition this season. Gloucester have won their last six competitive matches at Kingsholm since Northampton won there on 1 September. Sale Sharks beat Saracens 25-23 at the Salford City Stadium in the Anglo-Welsh Cup on Friday but have not won back-to-back games since April. The Sharks opened their winning account in this season's Aviva Premiership Rugby with a 21-9 home victory over London Irish in round eight. Sale achieved the Premiership double over Gloucester in 2011/12 but have not won on successive visits to Kingsholm since 1995-1996.
The teams:
Gloucester: 15 Rob Cook, 14 Charlie Sharples, 13 Mike Tindall, 12 Billy Twelvetrees, 11 Shane Monahan, 10 Freddie Burns, 9 Jimmy Cowan, 8 Sione Kalamafoni, 7 Akapusi Qera, 6 Tom Savage, 5 Jim Hamilton (capt), 4 Will James, 3 Rupert Harden, 2 Huia Edmonds, 1 Dan Murphy.
Replacements: 16 Koree Britton, 17 Nick Wood, 18 Shaun Knight, 19 Peter Buxton, 20 Matt Cox, 21 Dan Robson, 22 Tim Molenaar, 23 Martyn Thomas.
Sale Sharks: 15 Rob Miller, 14 Charlie Amesbury, 13 Will Addison, 12 Sam Tuitupou, 11 Mark Cueto, 10 Danny Cipriani, 9 Dwayne Peel, 8 Andy Powell, 7 David Seymour (capt), 6 Richie Vernon, 5 Kearnan Myall, 4 Fraser McKenzie, 3 Tony Buckley, 2 Tommy Taylor, 1 Ross Harrison.
Replacements: 16 Joe Ward, 17 Eifion Lewis-Roberts, 18 Vadim Cobilas, 19 Tom Holmes, 20 James Gaskell, 21 Will Cliff, 22 Nick Macleod, 23 Cameron Shepherd.
