2014 MLS SuperDraft Primer
This Thursday, Real Salt Lake will participate in the 2014 MLS SuperDraft hosted in Philadelphia. The annual league event will be slightly different this year and will consist of four rounds instead of last year's format which featured a two-round SuperDraft followed by a Supplemental Draft. The first two rounds of the SuperDraft will be held this Thursday starting at 10:00 a.m. MT and will be broadcast live on ESPNEWS. The third and fourth rounds will be held the following week on Tuesday, Jan. 21.
Real Salt Lake isn't likely to see too much action this Thursday as the Claret-and-Cobalt only holds the 18th overall pick in the first round and no second round pick. RSL does have one-third round pick and one fourth-round choice with the 53rd and 70th overall selections which will be used the following week. The Claret-and-Cobalt initially held the 56th overall pick, but it was sent to D.C. United as part of this August's trade that saw RSL acquire DF Brandon McDonald.
The MLS SuperDraft was initially created to give underperforming teams a better chance at competing the next season by offering them the first selections in the SuperDraft, with expansion teams or the last placed team getting the first pick. In this year's SuperDraft, D.C. United, which finished the 2013 season with the worst league record, will have the first choice.
Although Real Salt Lake only has one pick in the first two rounds, there is always the possibility of last minute negotiations so Thursday's action should still prove to be entertaining for RSL fans. It will also be interesting to see where some of the most promising young talent ultimately ends up and how next season's competition will start to stack up. Below is the first round draft order, and you can find complete coverage of the SuperDraft and MLS Player Combine by MLSsoccer.com here.

I keep a number of Gateway discs in my bag--
HPP Magic (primary putter)
Soft Magic (backup putter)
Soft Wizard (approach and headwind putter)
Medium Wizard (backup Wizard)

Everyone needs to give the E-Apaches a shot. They are a great control disc.
Assassins are great turnover discs. Good thing they are on the low end of the cost spectrum...you will need a bunch if you find that you like them. Pretty short life span (unless you are a magical player that NEVER hits trees).

A genius way to wear classic red (even if you think you're not a "red person")Chloë Sevigny is the last woman I'd expect to see in red lipstick and matching nail polish. The color-coordinated look seems too ladylike and too "movie star" for the indie actress' taste. But she managed to make the combo fresh by pairing it with an unexpectedly edgy outfit. While most stars would have worn moody black nails and a deep wine lipstick with a Goth see-through blouse, she mixed uptown beauty with downtown style for an oh-so-Chloë—and totally swipeable—look. Just one suggestion: If you're going to try this at home, wear a cami under a sheer top.
Paris' eye candy: Are sunglasses the new eye shadow?In case you didn't keep up with the gossip rags over the holidays, Paris Hilton escaped to Australia for a winter getaway. While on vacay, the platinum blond was repeatedly photographed wearing sunglasses that matched her outfit shade exactly—turquoise frames with her turquoise jumpsuit, pale pink with her cotton-candy-color sundress…you get the idea. I do like the eye-popping effect of a little color around the eyes, but I'm not about to buy a suitcase full of shades. Instead, why not pick up a few cheapie eyeshadows in shades that match your winter hat or jacket? It's a fun way to play around with your look and add some bright, cheery color to your face!

Peach and plum: the perfect winter makeup comboLeave it to beauty hall-of-famer Jennifer Lopez to find a pretty new winter makeup idea. Her peach blush and plum-y gray eye shadow combo is sexy—and simple to pull off. Start with a dewy foundation (for evening-worthy drama, you can add highlighting cream starting at the top of your cheekbones, down the bridge of your nose and at the temples), then brush on some shadow in a warm gray tone. Finish with a liberal application of peach blush and some rosy semigloss lipstick for a look that is both sweet and sexy.

Luxe-looking eyelashes (for under $10!)I had the pleasure of interviewing The City's gorgeous breakout star Olivia Palermo for a recent issue of Glamour and got the secret to her stunning eye makeup—which she does herself! The MTV star and Manhattan socialite told me she swears by Revlon Fantasy Lengths Maximum Wear eyelashes. They're self-adhesive, which means there's no messy glue involved. They're a little like stick-on nails for your eyes—and they retail for about $6. It doesn't get cheaper—or chicer—than that!
A recessionista alternative to Ashlee's blond locksI have to admit, I liked the vibrant red color Ashlee Simpson was rocking a few months back. Looks like she's back to blond. Her new look illustrates what colorists tell me may be big for '09: high-maintenance "I can afford it" hair color. Because blond hair color requires major time and moola to keep up, the hue becomes sort of a status symbol during down times. Some stylists even tell me that a few of their clients will cut back their spending on other things—like their clothes or credit-card debt payments—just to keep up the blond facade. Though the platinum-selling Ashlee can surely afford the lighter locks, I'm not sure her super-expensive hairstyle will work for the rest of us. For a more wallet-friendly style, you might want to try at-home hair color or the easy-to-maintain "brond" look.
Award-winning makeupKate Winslet was the big winner at this year's Golden Globes—and no, I'm not talking about those two statuettes she took home. Makeup artist Jillian Dempsey, wife of Dr. McDreamy himself, Patrick Dempsey, created one of the best makeup looks of the night. To create equally bold—but not overwhelming—cheek, lip and eye looks for the Revolutionary Road star, Jillian applied black kohl and brown liner on Winslet's top lash lines and a hint of peachy-coral lipstick on her lids, then smudged a little brown shadow underneath. Kate's lashes were played up with Lancôme's Oscillation Vibrating Infinite Powermascara, and for the final touch, Jillian slicked on Avon's Pro-to-Go Lipstick in Cherry Glisten, a classic red hue. As if her makeup weren't enough to covet, you might want to steal her hair, too; notice the one big chunk of blond that sweeps over Kate's face-framing bangs? Ask your colorist to stick to one giant streak instead of a whole head of highlights—it's a cool way to look blond for less.
Unexpected DO: matching eyeshadow with gown colorYou couldn't miss one of the biggest beauty trends at the Golden Globes: coordinating eyeshadow and gown color. I love how Drew Barrymore picked up her dress's gorgeous sky-blue tone and used it on her lids. A layer of black eyeliner and a hint of kohl shadow layered over the pastel powder sidesteps the matchy-matchy vibe and gives her eyes a flattering pulled-together effect. While Drew's big hair may be best left to the red carpet, steal her eye makeup when you're wearing a bright outfit. By opting for colorful shadow, your eyes wind up accessorizing your outfit—so there's no need for the bling that most stars borrow!

The new-Hollywood mouthWhat's the right lip color to wear with smoky eye makeup? While celebrities who worked the old-Hollywood vibe (like the lovely Kate Winslet) chose a deep red lipstick, Beyoncé, always one to test out new beauty trends, opted for a no-color shiny gloss. No need to spend much to re-create B's look—a cheap drugstore tube of shiny gloss (kind of like top coat for your nails) is all you need. But do invest in a flattering foundation: What makes it work is her flawless skin and the lack of shine on her face. The only other place on her that catches the light is her shoulders (no doubt there's a little shimmer in her moisturizer) and her gorgeous, glittering eyes.
Start off the New Year with a bangOr should we say, start off 2009 with bangs. Glamour's February 2009 cover girl Eva Longoria Parker debuted a new set of fringey bangs at the the Critics' Choice Awards in early January. I love that her bangs are a little longer, making them way more versatile than the short, blunt-edge style: They can be pulled back, swept to the sides or ironed straight. Plus, cheekbone-length bangs like Eva's have a great way of lengthifying the face. Not that the stunning actress needs it, but it's a nice trick for those of us who do!
The unboring party ponytailAdmit it: During glam nights out, most of us wind up getting frustrated with our hours-to-create hair at some point and end up just pulling it back into a boring ponytail. Well, this week Angelina managed to make everyone's favorite cop-out coif look totally chic—and not a lazy mistake—by neatly slicking back her hair and securing it right in the middle of her nape. The resulting look is more elegant than the normal cheerleader-looking pony, but it still has bounce and tons of shine. (To add a little gloss to your own mane, try John Freida's New Luminous Color Glaze in Clear Shine.) Here's another trick to make a simple ponytail seem polished: contrast the no-fuss hairstyle by wearing lots of eye makeup. With your whole face on display, you need definition to look dressed up, and that means lots of liner and lashes.
Princess Bride hairWho knew Princess Buttercup was such a beauty icon? Over the past few awards-ceremony-filled weeks, celebs have been going for fairy-tale hairstyles—from Rapunzel braids to Cinderella updos—all worthy of a royal procession. (Or at least some regal ball.) I was especially taken with the 'dos Milla Jovovich and Nicole Richie wore recently: Milla's skinny tiara-style headband and Nicole's braided-crown updo were both truly fit for a princess—or even a queen. (Kate Middleton, are you paying attention?)
The new budget-friendly hair-color treatmentBlond bombshells like Kate Hudson always look like a million bucks, but one of Hudson's colorists, Sharon Dorram, says you don't have to go broke to get the look. Sharon (who just opened a gorgeous new Manhattan salon, btw) suggests asking your colorist for hairline highlights, where only the roots get touched up. By using a fraction of the time and dye, this mini-treatment lets you keep your hair looking just-from-the-salon fresh without costly visits. "It's all about conservation right now—saving your money and your color—and this allows you to go a few months longer between full-on highlights," she says.
A new winter lipstickIt's no surprise we've spotted several glamorous red mouths over the past few weeks—after all, it is prime red-carpet season. But it was the pale-pink-wearing stars who caught my eye recently. Salma Hayek opted for a classic pink at an awards show in New York in early January. The sweet shade warmed up her cool brown-and-black eye makeup—an unexpected yet ideal look to wear in mid-winter.
Bangs with attitudeBlunt bangs used to be considered a sweet style, but recently they've taken on a hipper edge. I like how The City's Erin Lucas wears hers: Combed front and slightly center-parted, her bangs hit just at her lids so she has to peek through them sexily. Hair pro Nicholas Penna Jr. of Boston's SalonCapri says this style of thick, blunt bangs will work on a variety of face shapes and is a great way to change up your look without doing anything drastic. "They even make a ponytail look cool," he says about sharp-edged bangs. "Just blow out your bangs and throw the rest of your hair back." What could be easier than that?
The softer side of Hollywood (beauty)While other up-and-coming starlets pile on the black liner, Amanda Seyfried of Mamma Mia! fame recently hit the red carpet wearing only beige liner. It's a shocker, I know. Her makeup artist Monika Blunder played up her pretty blue eyes by keeping shadow low-key. Monica used shades of taupe, Dior Eye Show in Undressed Beige No. 622 and Dior Crayon Eyeliner in Elegant Taupe, then finished the look with a layer of DiorShow Mascara. Seyfried also wore one of my new beauty finds, DiorSkin AirFlash Spray Foundation. This stuff is amazing. Spray it on with your eyes closed and you've got celeb-perfect skin instantly. It saves me major morning minutes.
Anne Hathaway's Hat TrickLooking chic while braving the cold is no easy feat, but stars facing the D.C. chill for President Obama's inauguration or wintery weather at Sundance showed it can be done! Here's a stylish way to get over your fear of hat hair—try the romantic beret-style hat Anne Hathaway wore with her short haircut perfectly swooped out on both sides. To make your own topper look this cute, do what Hathaway does: Tuck your hair behind your ear on one side, sweep the other side forward so it hangs down and frames your face at the front, and then plop your hat on so your hair stays in place.
New Part for a New PresidentWhether President Obama will inspire us all to find middle ground remains to be seen, but it seems some celebrities are quite comfortable with the middle already—middle parts, that is. Trendsetter Demi Moore sported a crisp down-the-middle part at the MTV Inaugural Ball. To get her cool, seemingly PC hairstyle, create a sharp center part while hair is wet. Spritz a root volumizer before blow-drying with a round brush while pulling up at the roots. Then, curl 2-inch sections with a 11/2-inch-barrel curling iron, holding it horizontally to get loose, sexy waves instead of tight spirals.
Bright Shadow for a Bright FutureJennifer Lopez was quite the eyeshadow diva at the inauguration celebrations, wearing bright, colorful shades that seemed to match the upbeat mood of D.C. revelers. I love the pretty blue she chose for the Latino Inaugural Ball: The aquamarine shade—a bit like Wet N Wild MegaEyes Eyeshadow in Cornflower—picks up the color of her gorgeous earrings and coordinates with her gown without looking too matchy-matchy. While blue eyeshadow can easily fall into DON'T territory, J.Lo made it work by applying it to the lower part of the lids, feathering in her under-eye liner and sweeping on a flattering pearly highlight shadow just below her brow bones.
The DIY BlowoutWhen my hair looks good, my mood is better—and who doesn't want that? Just because you're in belt-tightening mode doesn't mean you have to give up your mood-boosting awesome hair. One of the easiest DIY hair treatments is a really good blowout. To get a fresh, modern look like Emmy Rossum's, dry almost all the moisture out of your hair, leaving it slightly damp. Then use a big round brush to pull sections of hair really tight as you zap out all remaining moisture. Finish with a soft-hold hairspray like Dove Flexible Hold Hairspray.

Research Summary
The Child and Adolescent Research and Education (CARE) Program focuses on two areas of investigation: 1) Studies in support of the National Institute of Mental Health's Research Domain Criteria (RDoC) initiative which aims to develop the necessary database to derive a new psychiatric nomenclature informed by neuroscience, genetics, and psychology; and 2) Research on risk and resilience in maltreated children. These two lines of research are synergistic and interrelated, with the study of maltreated children having a number of advantages for the RDoC project, including: the study of a subset of patients that are frequently treatment resistant to standard clinical interventions; examination of a relatively homogenous sample with the onset of psychopathology proposed to be associated with stress-related mechanisms; and well-established relevant animal models to facilitate translational research.
We utilize clinical assessment, neuroimaging (e.g., structural, fMRI fear conditioning paradigm, resting state connectivity), and genetics (e.g., polymorphisms, epigenetic markers) research methods, with many of the clinical assessments we obtain collected at a day camp devised specifically for our research purposes.

Jeff Casazza, associate professor of theatre, won the Leepoxy Plastics, Inc. Award for Excellence in Undergraduate Teaching for his innovative approach to teaching Theatrical Composition. The award was established in 2003 by area businessman Lawrence Lee to recognize and encourage innovative undergraduate teaching that enhances student learning.
The selection committee, comprised of two faculty members, two students and a staff member designated by the vice chancellor of academic affairs, chose Casazza from among five nominees from three colleges. In coming to a consensus on the winner, the insights and perspectives of the student members of the committee were particularly persuasive. Further, Casazza provided ample convincing evidence showing that his innovation enhanced learning outcomes. The chancellor will present Jeff with the award and $1,000 in professional development funds at the annual convocation ceremony in August 2013.
IPFW Department of Theatre and Fort Wayne Youtheatre collaboration on one of the most beloved musicals ever, Oliver!
The National Association of Schools of Theatre (NAST) has granted accreditation and membership to the Department of Theatre at Indiana University–Purdue University Fort Wayne (IPFW) and its Bachelor of Arts: Theatre (acting, design/technology, directing). This is the first time the department has received NAST accreditation.
Chair and Professor of Theatre John O'Connell, who also serves as interim dean of the College of Visual and Performing Arts, is pleased with the accreditation. "Being recognized by the national accrediting agency confirms that the IPFW Department of Theatre maintains a program of the highest quality, producing theatre students ready and equipped to compete with students from any other program in the country," said O'Connell.
Steven T. Sarratore, interim vice chancellor for academic affairs and a professor of theatre, echoed O'Connell's sentiments. "We are delighted that the Department of Theatre has joined the ranks of our other accredited programs on campus."
NAST was founded in 1965 and is made up of approximately 178 schools, conservatories, colleges and universities. It establishes national standards for undergraduate and graduate degrees and other credentials.
To learn more about NAST, go to nast.arts-accredit.org. For more information about IPFW's Department of Theatre, go to ipfw.edu/theatre, or contact O'Connell at 260-481-6550 or firstname.lastname@example.com.
The IPFW College of Visual and Performing Arts is pleased to announce that the Mikautadze Dance Theatre (MDT) is the newest company-in-residence on the IPFW campus. MDT strives to bring the art of professional modern and contemporary dance to Fort Wayne and surrounding communities through dance performance and the advancement of creative movement and dance education.
MDT works to create a unique theatrical experience by producing work that is a synthesis of many art forms. "We strive to reach this goal through collaborative efforts both within the company and with other artists," said Elizabeth Mikautadze, MTD's artistic director.
A unique aspect of the group is the husband and wife team who take the lead. David Mikautadze, Elizabeth's husband, serves as the musical director for MTD and composes much of the music they use in their choreography. "It has been our dream since we met to one day have this company!" explains Elizabeth.
MTD's spring concert at IPFW is scheduled for May 17 and 18 in Williams Theatre on the IPFW campus. The company of dancers includes Lin Daffron, Emily Keisler, Kater Majorins, Jonathan Meader, Nina Shaw, Tracy Tritz and Cory Waite. For more on times, tickets and information about their company, visit them at www.mdtcompany.org
Associate Faculty of Theatre Joel Froomkin and his partner Rich Najuch, owners of The New Huntington Theatre were honored by Indiana Main Street with the 2012 Business of the Year Award. Indiana Main Street, a program operated by the Indiana Office of Community and Rural Affairs, presented the award on Oct. 11, 2012 during the statewide Indiana Main Street Conference in Kokomo.
Both owners have been dedicated to the revitalization of the downtown district. Najuch is a founding member of the Main Street Huntington program and has been active in fundraising, advertising and promotion since the beginning.
"Downtown districts are the heart of Hoosier cities and towns, and they are a key component of any community's economic success," said Lt. Governor Skillman. "Each of this year's Indiana Main Street award winners has made a lasting impact by demonstrating their commitment to their local community."
Originally from New York Froomkin, who teaches performance classes for the IPFW Department of Theatre, and Najuch began to resurrect the once-vacant theatre after they purchased it in 2007. They then began restoration efforts to transform the entire theatre and bring new life back to the building. While restoring the theatre, they offer professional cabaret-style shows in the lobby area now known as The Huntington Supper Club.
Although their dream of staging live shows in the theater's main stage remains strong, the auditorium actually sat untouched until early this year. "We spend so much time doing other things," Najuch said, not the least of which is writing, casting, rehearsing and staging the supper club shows several times a year.
The target date for opening the auditorium has not been set, however the all-new Holiday Show is scheduled for Nov. 28 – Dec. 22, 2012. A trio of NYC songbirds featuring supper club favorite Elizabeth Urbanczyk will be in town to celebrate the season. To book your seats call 260-454-0603 or visit www.TheNewHuntington.com
When The Miser opens September 28 in Williams Theatre, the comic farce by Molière will feature four very unique costumes created from start to finish by equally unique and talented students. All four costumes, designed by Craig A. Humphrey, associate professor of costume design, have been assigned to individual students. They will draft original patterns to recreate the costume renderings they have been given. Known as cutter/drapers in the costume shop for this project, they are also responsible for seeing the costumes through to completion. They include the following:
"It's so exciting to see each of these students doing graduate level work during their senior year, said Jeanne Pendleton, costume shop supervisor. "It is very rare for our department to have four costume assistants at the same time who are this talented. We usually only have one student each year in the costume shop rise to this level of accomplishment."
For more information on seeing these fabulous garments live and in person be sure to attend The Miser.

The Heart-Healthy Benefits of a Traditional Mediterranean Diet
The best diet to prevent a heart attack is one that resembles the dietary patterns of peoples who lived on or close to the Mediterranean Sea in the 1960s (not now!). The good news is that the clinical research strongly supports the Mediterranean diet, and there are many changes that we can make in our lives to reduce the risk of heart disease. The bad news is that it is very difficult to change our dietary habits and lifestyle. We need to be patient with ourselves, try new recipes to expand our palates and understand that the cardio-protective effects of the Mediterranean diet go beyond the food. It is the whole lifestyle, including their joie de vivre. Taking a step back in time to enjoy the simple, old-fashioned pleasures might help you prolong your life and reduce your risk of cardiac disease.
The Clinical Research
Support for the Mediterranean diet and lifestyle comes from many studies.
What is the Mediterranean Diet?
This diet is based on similarities in the dietary patterns of people who live in the coastal areas of the 16 countries that border the Mediterranean Sea. (Check out http://www.worldatlas.com/aatlas/infopage/medsea.htm for a map of these countries.)
Within each country there are many dietary differences. Southern French food is not Parisian French food and the same holds true for Italy and most of the other countries that border on the Mediterranean. There are tremendous differences in culture, ethnic backgrounds, religions, economy and native foods that make for delightful and unique cuisines and lifestyles. But among these differing diets and lifestyles there are similarities—factors that protect against cardiovascular disease, which is the leading cause of death for both men and women in the US.
Mediterranean Diet components:
Mediterranean Lifestyle components
Sadly, the dietary patterns and lifestyles of the Mediterranean peoples are changing. They are eating more meat and sweets and adopting more of our American lifestyle. And guess what? Cardiovascular disease, obesity, hypertension, high cholesterol and diabetes rates are rising there. Studies have shown that when various ethnic populations move to our country and modify their traditional diet and lifestyle, they develop risk factors for cardiovascular disease, just like an American!
So pick a country or countries—France? Italy? Greece?—and take a trip in your dreams and in your diet, to protect your family from heart disease!

Good nutrition and supplementation are a vital part of creating a foundation for optimal health. But there are other practices that can also help your body fight the effects of stress and add life to your years. A plethora of research is now showing that participating in regular practices like yoga, meditation and tai chi can help ease the aging process by boosting heart health, strengthening your body, reducing inflammation and more. Tai Chi This ancient practice mixes physical movement with meditation and martial arts. Different forms of tai chi have been practiced for hundreds of years in China as a form of fighting, and more recently the exercise has expanded throughout the world. (Find out more about the origins and benefits of tai chi from the Mayo Clinic.) The good news is that it's a low-impact exercise, meaning people of all ages can participate by adjusting the intensity of their practice. Here are a few recent studies that show how tai chi can address a variety of health issues: Tai chi for older people reduces falls, may help maintain strength Two different studies showed that older adults showed a marked improvement in balance, strength and agility after learning tai chi. Tai chi can reduce pain and increase physical functioning in arthritis patientsA study from Tufts University on patients with severe knee arthritis showed that an hour of tai chi, twice a week for 12 weeks, reduced pain and increased physical function more than standard stretching. Find a local tai chi class or club by contacting your local YMCA or community center. And, if you or someone you know lives in the Boston area, Harvard University is currently recruiting adults ages 50-79 to participate in a six-month study on the effects of tai chi on overall health. Yoga Discover what yogis around the world know about this practice-it can relieve stress, strengthen your muscles and increase your flexibility, a recipe for aging well. According to the American Yoga Association, it's been around for more than 5,000 years, and there are now more than 100 different types of yoga. Literally meaning "to join or yoke together," yoga brings together the mind and body in one holistic practice (learn more about the history of yoga). The yoga practice can also be adjusted for students of all ages and capabilities, and has been shown to dramatically improve health and longevity. Whether you practice every day or just a few times a week, yoga can be a vital way to reconnect your mind and body. Here's some recent research on the health benefits of yoga: Yoga reduces inflammation and the effects of stress in women An Ohio State University study showed that women who had been regularly practicing yoga at least twice a week for two years were much better at recovering from stress and had lower levels of C-reactive protein, a marker for inflammation. Yoga helps chronic back pain A brand-new study, organized in part by the National Center for Complementary Medicine, showed that people with chronic low back pain who took 12 weekly classes saw "clinically important improvements in their back-related dysfunction," which lasted well past the end of the study. Read more about specific yoga poses that can alleviate symptoms of menopause from Yoga Journal, check out Gaiam Life's guide to simple anti-aging yoga poses, or shop yoga products from Gaiam Life.
Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction and Meditation Mindfulness-based stress reduction (MBSR) is an emerging practice that draws from the tenets of meditation and yoga, and involves a focus on breathing and awareness of your present surroundings. (Dr. Bradly Jacobs, the chair of our Integrative Health Advisory Board, recommends learning more about MBSR here.) By increasing our awareness of the connection between body and mind through meditation or MBSR, we can take control of common health issues such as pain, menopausal symptoms and stress. Here are some recent studies on the benefits of mindfulness: Mindfulness lessens pain A study done at Wake Forest University showed that participants who were trained in mindfulness through four 20-minute sessions felt pain at a much lower level of intensity and unpleasantness than those who were not trained. Researchers concluded that mindfulness helps the brain restructure itself and take control of sensory experiences.
Mindfulness soothes the discomfort of hot flashes Scientists at the University of Massachusetts showed that women trained in mindfulness felt less discomfort associated with their hot flashes (and slept better!).
Meditation good for heart health A 1991 study reviewed the effects of Dhammakaya Buddhist meditation on markers for heart health in men. The meditating men saw significantly reduced cortisol levels and blood pressure, all good for keeping your heart calm and healthy. Whichever you choose, these practices can be integrated into a good supplement regimen-check out some of our favorite healthy aging supplements

Ted Ligety overhauled the deficit of Alexis Pinturault from the slalom section of the Super Combined to win his first World Cup Super Combined race. Natko Zrncic-Dim took third place with Aksel Lund Svindal producing an excellent Downhill section to bring himself up to 5th overall.
With the slalom section being held first due to an expected snowfall overnight, Ligety felt that this format suited him more. Certainly from starting Number 1 the HEAD World Cup Rebel was able to push it to the limit. "Normally I start after all the good slalom skiers in the second part of a Super Combined," Ligety explained, "so this format was definitely better for me."
Ligety added: "It's nice to win a super combined finally. I've only done so in big events, which is a nice thing to do, but it would have been good to win a World Cup before now. To get this win is a nice confidence booster and feels really good because January has been a rough month for me. It's nice that I can turn the corner on that one."
"It was tough today. There was a lot of snowfall but they groomed the track and it was not the greatest snow to ski downhill on, but I feel lucky that we had good light. In downhill if I don't feel confident enough to go hard I let myself go slow so I can see where I'm going. I was lucky in the morning running first because I got a super smooth course and that helped me relax and stay enough ahead of the downhill guys despite not skiing a fantastic run. I had a great downhill run," Ligety continued.
Svindal had been in 22nd spot after the Slalom section and produced the fastest downhill section time. A small mistake in the run in to the finish meant that the difference was not as great as it could have been.
Matthias Mayer and Bode Miller also made the top finishers. Mayer was please with his run and happy to finish in the same area as many of the other downhillers in the slalom section. While Ligety enjoyed being able to go first, Kjetil Jansrud and Aksel Lund Svindal felt that the course conditions on the Slalom section proved a little hazardous due to the ruts and snow conditions. Svindal explained between runs that he thought the gap to Ligety and Pinturault was too great but did feel he could make it up to at least fifth.
Svindal's fifth place puts him back in the lead for the Overall while for Ligety he has strengthened his position in third with his 20th World Cup win, his first non Giant Slalom win.

Kosher Salads & Salad Dressings
|Colorful Beet Salad
by Estee Kafar, Spice It Right!
This salad is gorgeous — the colors just spring out at you. It looks much more complicated to make than it really is. The ingredients are readily available all year round. Please note that the color from the beets will bleed, so assemble the ingredients only before serving.
3 large or 5 baby red beets, trimmed
Preheat oven to 400° F.
Wrap each color beet separately in foil and bake for 1 hour and 15 minutes until soft. Remove from foil, run under cold water and then remove peels. Cut each beet into quarters or eighths and place each color in its own bowl. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. (Note: The beets can be prepared up to two days in advance and kept in the refrigerator, covered tightly.)
Cut all peels and pith off oranges, working over a bowl to catch the juice for dressing. Cut between membranes, releasing segments.
Peel and clean fennel. Using a peeler, peel crosswise to create paper-thin strips.
When ready to serve, mix together beets, oranges and fennel. Top with mint and toasted hazelnuts. Mix ingredients for dressing and drizzle over salad. Serve at room temperature.
Yield: serves 6-8
NOTE: You can use all red beets if golden beets are not available.

Using transfer
credit for UFV programs
Many credit courses offered at recognized post-secondary institutions have been evaluated for equivalency by UFV. The UFV Office of the Registrar maintains a list of transfer credit arrangements.
Transfer credit arrangements for first and second year courses, and some
upper-level courses, for most B.C. institutions are published in the
B.C. Transfer Guide. If no transfer course is listed, that does not mean that a course does not transfer; a course outline must be reviewed to determine the appropriate transfer credit. In most cases, transfer credit will be given for academic courses from B.C. public post-secondary institutions even when transfer credit is not listed in the B.C. Transfer Guide.
Once an official transcript is evaluated for transfer credit, the official UFV transcript will list all transferable courses
(including grades) and their equivalents at UFV.
Only transferable courses with a minimum grade of P (pass) when equated to the UFV grading system can be applied towards the requirements of any UFV credential.
Some departments may require a grade higher than a P. Failed courses are
usually counted in admission grade point average calculations.
Transfer credit granted for previous work at another institution may or may not be applicable to a student's program, and does not necessarily excuse the student from meeting the prerequisites or other requirements for entry into a course or program.
Normally, transfer credit cannot be used for more than 50% of the credits
necessary to complete the requirements for a degree, diploma, or certificate.
This limit may be increased to 75% for some programs.
Recognition by UFV of studies completed elsewhere does not imply, or in any way guarantee, that the transfer credits will be recognized by another institution.
Transfer credit process
Official transcripts (see Note) are reviewed routinely for all students in, and
applicants to, undergraduate programs (excluding vocational certificate
Students in other programs must request transfer credit. To request transfer
credit, students must contact the Credential Evaluation office in the Office of the Registrar on the Abbotsford campus.
Note: A transcript is considered official if it arrives to the UFV Office of the Registrar (33844 King Road, Abbotsford, B.C., V2S 7M8) in the original sealed envelope with the institution's name and address imprinted upon it. The transcripts must have a current issue date, and bear the official institution seal or authorizing signature.
There is a document evaluation fee ($75 for domestic students, $250 for international students) for documents originating outside Canada.
A minimum of six to eight weeks is required for evaluation. Detailed course outlines may be required if no articulation agreement exists. Students who intend to use credits from another institution towards a UFV credential must apply for transfer credit at least three to four months prior to application for graduation.
For documents that are not in English, including official transcripts and
course outlines, a translation into English by a certified translator may be required.
Documents submitted become the property of UFV. Only documents that are considered by UFV to be irreplaceable will be returned to the student,
provided the student requests return of the document upon submission.
Advanced standing
For some UFV courses, a student may demonstrate mastery of a subject area and be admitted directly to a higher-level course without completing prerequisite or co-requisite courses. Advanced standing does not give the student credit for courses bypassed, nor does it preclude the necessity of obtaining credit for courses required by other institutions.
Advanced Placement program
Transfer credit and/or advanced standing will be granted to students who complete certain Advanced Placement program (AP) examinations through the College Entrance Examination Board.
A minimum grade of 4 is required for transfer. Transferability of Advanced Placement courses is listed in the B.C. Transfer Guide at bctransferguide.ca, under "Block, AP and IB Guides". In addition, UFV will grant unassigned credit for other Advanced Placement courses with a grade of 4 or higher that are accepted at other B.C. public universities.
To obtain transfer credit, official AP score results
must be
sent directly from the College Board to UFV Admissions, Office of the Registrar, 33844 King Road, Abbotsford, B.C., V2S 7M8. Transfer credit will not be
given on the basis of transcripts issued by high schools or other third parties.
Note: For the Advanced Placement program, the institutional
number for UFV is 6750. Students may be able to request that the results be sent directly to UFV when the test is written.
International Baccalaureate program
Transfer credit and/or advanced standing may be granted to students who complete
certain higher level International Baccalaureate (IB) diploma courses. Normally, a grade of 5 or better
is required for transfer. Transferability of International Baccalaureate courses is listed in the B.C. Transfer Guide at bctransferguide.ca, under "Block, AP and IB Guides".
In addition, UFV will grant unassigned credit for other IB higher level diploma courses with a grade of 5 or higher that are accepted at other B.C. public universities.
To obtain transfer credits, official IB certificates or diplomas should be
sent directly from International Baccalaureate to UFV Admissions, 33844 King Road, Abbotsford, B.C., V2S 7M8. Transfer credit will not be
given on the basis of transcripts issued by high schools or other third parties.
Note: For the International Baccalaureate program, the
institutional number for UFV is 00084. Students may be able to request that the results be sent directly to UFV when the test is written.
Letters of Permission
Students currently enrolled in a UFV certificate, diploma, or degree program who plan to take academic work at another institution to count toward their programs should request a Letter of Permission. The Letter of Permission request should be submitted to the Office of the Registrar well before registration for the course in question. Forms are available from
ufv.ca/admissions or from the UFV Office of the Registrar.
Letters of Permission will be issued only to students in good academic standing (students must have an academic record at UFV and meet the minimum GPA required for their program, or maintain a minimum cumulative GPA of 2.0 or higher if the program does not specify a minimum). Students must ensure that any outstanding fees are paid, and any library holds are cleared.
Visiting students
Students from other post-secondary institutions who plan to attend UFV as visiting students should contact their home institution for permission. Visiting students to UFV must submit a UFV application form, the application fee, and the Letter of Permission (if applicable) from the home institution.
Visiting students must also meet general UFV admission requirements (must
either have B.C. high school graduation or equivalent, or be 19 years of age or
older as of the first day of classes).
Visiting students are required to meet course prerequisites. A recent transcript and Request for Transfer Credit form is also required if a prerequisite course has been taken at another institution.
Transfer to other institutions
Please see this section for information on
transfer to other institutions.

The host institutions are invariably other colleges and universities at sites in the U.S. or abroad. Students receive generous stipends and in most cases assistance with housing and travel. Most experiences last for 10 weeks in the summer. As well as research, the hosts usually offer career counseling, seminars, educational trips to other institutions, recreation, and fun outings. At the sites students work alongside other students from all across the country, and in most sites will work under the guidance of faculty. Opportunities are usually limited to current freshmen thru juniors and exist across a broad range of disciplines including biology, chemistry, physics, astronomy, earth sciences, materials research, and ocean sciences. Students may not apply to NSF to participate in REU activities. Students apply directly to REU Sites and should consult the directory of active REU Sites on the Web at http://www.nsf.gov/funding/pgm_summ.jsp?pims_id=5517&org=NSFF or more information and any other assistance you might need to contact Career Services.

quick--only Heisman trophy winner to play in the Final Four
That would be Beaver Terry Baker, 1962 Heisman winner, I don't know what year Oregon State was in the FF the year he played in it.
Don't know. I do know the only guys to play in the Final Four and MLB went to the same defunct high school. Anyone?
I do know the only guys to play in the Final Four and MLB went to the same defunct high school. Anyone?
also-Terry Baker is a half answer to another trivia question--anyone?
Jimmie Johnson?
LaTroy Hawkins is from Gary, Indiana. That's basically East Chicago.
Traditionally there are a lot of football/baseball dual threats, but very few of them are QB/pitchers because of the requirement for such different arm actions. That may be changing I guess.
while we've had a few play two sports professionally at different times in their life, no one has really come close to the elite level Bo (HOF football player til he got hurt, All-Star baseball player) and Deion (HOF football player player, pretty good baseball player) in both.
Here's one: Which college pitcher won the MVP of the College World Series (2 games, 17? innings, 9 hits, 1 earned run, 29 K's) and was starting in LF for his major league team exactly one week later?
Which two MLBers won a Heisman Trophy?
fastball a 60 (on the 20-to-80 scale) and a future 70
Only advantage I see is that throwing a football is much less likely to lead to career-threatening arm injuries. A QB just doesn't overuse his arm like a pitcher does - 30-50 throws once a week, and only a small portion of those will be max effort throws.
But overall injury risk is less in baseball. Pitchers don't have to worry (usually) about the 1b runner blindside tackling him as he completes a pitch.

2012 - Mars or Bust
This is pretty darn cool.
NASA's Mars Science Laboratory 'Curiosity' took off for the Red Planet late in 2011, and expectations are that it will reach its destination in August.
Something to look forward to mater in 2012.
Check out this great CG animation of the trip, landing, and what will be happening when the Lab is settled in.
Re: 2012 - Mars or Bust - Curiosity lands safely!
Very excited to share the good news that the latest Mars rover Curiosity, which is the size of a large vehicle, has just landed on Mars!
The descent to the planet's surface was a very precarious one that went off perfectly!
Here's the first picture from the surface...
NASA's Curiosity rover scores touchdown on Mars
Spacecraft survives '7 minutes of terror,' lands safely, sends first picture
PASADENA, Calif. August 5, 2012 — After eight years of planning and eight months of interplanetary travel, NASA's Mars Science Laboratory pulled off a touchdown of Super Bowl proportions, all by itself. It even sent pictures from the goal line.
The spacecraft plunged through Mars' atmosphere, fired up a rocket-powered platform and lowered the car-sized, 1-ton Curiosity rover to its landing spot in 96-mile-wide (154-kilometer-wide) Gale Crater. Then the platform flew off to its own crash landing, while Curiosity sent out a text message basically saying, "I made it!"
That message was relayed by the orbiting Mars Odyssey satellite back to Earth. A radio telescope in Australia picked up the message and sent it here to NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory. When the blips of data appeared on the screens at JPL's mission control, the room erupted in cheers and hugs.
A thumbnail, fisheye view from one of the hazard avoidance cameras on NASA's Curiosity rover shows Martian soil and parts of the spacecraft itself.
Because of the light-travel time between Mars and Earth, throngs of scientists and engineers — along with millions who were monitoring the action via television and the Internet — celebrated Curiosity's landing 14 minutes after it actually occurred.
Even the engineers who drew up the unprecedented plan for the landing admitted that it looked crazy. But the plan actually worked.
Minutes after the news of the landing broke, commentator Allen Chen brought more good news: "We have thumbnails!" Odyssey delivered two pictures showing the view from hazard avoidance cameras mounted on the rover.
The touchdown marked a $2.5 billion triumph for what Doug McCuistion, director of the Mars Exploration Program at NASA Headquarters, called "the Super Bowl of planetary exploration." Curiosity's primary mission is scheduled to last one full Martian year, or almost two Earth years — but scientists hope the nuclear-powered rover will keep going for years longer than that.
Re: 2012 - Mars or Bust
It all started with the two Viking landers that made it to the surface way back in 1976...
Re: 2012 - Mars or Bust
In this video NASA JPL scientists explain the complexities involved in landing a one ton vehicle on the surface of Mars. This was a truly amazing accomplishment. One that will stand out in history.
Re: 2012 - Mars or Bust
Check out how animation was used in real time at JPL in Pasadena as Curiosity made its historic and monumental descent to the surface of Mars two days ago...
Re: 2012 - Mars or Bust
This is actual footage from Curiosity's point of view as it made its descent towards Mars. The video is compiled from photos taken at the rate of 4 frames per second. You can see the heat shield falling to the surface at the beginning of the video.
Re: 2012 - Mars or Bust
What a perfect shot from JPL and NASA!
Not sure I care a whole lot about whether there are, or were, microbes on Mars.
Re: 2012 - Mars or Bust
We're going to colonize the planet Mars in the not too distant future. That's the significance of this particular feat. We've figured out how to safely land a one ton vehicular laboratory on our nearest planetary neighbor. We're eventually going to figure out how to make Martian soil grow things. We're going to terraform the planet. Someday they'll be playing baseball on Mars in enclosed structures. The day will come when humans will be watching cartoons on Mars.

Great stuff! Curiosity, beyond being a big lab on wheels, has a nuclear battery which will solve a lot of the problems that happened with the last two rovers (limited hours of operation, sleeping through the winter, slow speed and fear of not "waking up" due to cold). They did go for over 5 years!
Jed Schwartz and I (with a few others) did 30 scenes for Nat Geo's "Five Years on Mars" which was all of the shots for the story of the rover "Spirit." Dan Mass did all of the Opportunity footage for about 50 scenes.
Lots of projection map textures built from actual Mars photographs from the massive JPL collection.
Funny thing was the number of people who asked "How did they get another camera up there?"
Re: 2012 - Mars or Bust
Wow, amazing work! Very impressive! Thanks for posting the link to the animation your group created. Here's the embedded video for all to see...
Re: 2012 - Mars or Bust
The previous video of the descent of Curiosity was sped up. Here it is in real time taking less than 2 minutes once the heat shield is dropped. The video quality is excellent.
I've also featured the David Gregg Associates video that Dolphin78 posted on AN's homepage for this date.

Which is stronger in football, the Prince George's County 4A League or 3A/2A/1A League?
When asked that question, Henry A. Wise High School coach DaLawn Parrish paused and then broke out laughing.
"Of course, I'm going to be biased, because I'm in the 4A League," Parrish said. "So, I'm going to say the 4A League.
"On paper, I don't think it's close. But again, you wouldn't know until you play."
Then, Parrish resisted further inquiries into the difference between the leagues.
"No coach wants to say something where they can put it on their bulletin board," he said.
Parrish is concerned because his team plays Frederick Douglass, a 2A team at 7:30 p.m. Saturday as part of the Prince George's Pigskins Classic, an event that also pits 4A Eleanor Roosevelt against 2A Gwynn Park (7:30 p.m. Friday) and 4A Suitland against 2A Potomac (4:30 p.m. Saturday).
The opening weekend of high school football also features 4A Bladensburg at 2A Largo, 1A Central at 4A High Point, 2A Friendly at 4A Parkdale and 4A Laurel at 1A Surrattsville.
Since Prince George's County allowed for more flexibility in non-conference scheduling two years ago, 4A teams have played 3A/2A/1A teams to a 2-2 draw. In 2012, 6-5 Flowers beat 7-4 Largo and 3-7 Crossland beat 0-10 Parkdale. In 2011, 9-4 Flowers beat 3-7 Largo and 4-6 Crossland beat 2-8 Parkdale.
But the leagues haven't matched up in a schedule like this before, both sides in clear contrast and seeking any extra motivation.
Parrish need not worry much. Many 3A/2A/1A coaches agreed that the larger schools have an advantage, though one disagreed on the record.
The Gazette asked the county's 22 public-school coaches which league is stronger, and 16 responded.
Overall: 11 chose 4A, one chose 3A/2A/1A, four abstained.
Of the 4A coaches: Seven chose 4A, none chose 3A/2A/1A, zero abstained. Of the 3A/2A/1A coaches: Four chose 4A, one chose 3A/2A/1A, four abstained.
Perhaps that poll wasn't representative of many coaches' true feelings. Frederick Douglass coach J.C. Pinkney, Gwynn Park coach Danny Hayes and Friendly coach Peter Quaweay — who oversee 3A/2A/1A's highest-ranked teams — were among the abstainers.
"The stronger teams in the 3A/2A/1A don't have a problem playing a 4A," said Potomac coach Ronnie Crump, who cast the only vote for the 3A/2A/1A. "You can come to our meetings and find that out."
Said Parrish: "We have a tight coaches' association, so I know everybody in there is competitive, and you want to say your league is better."
For the 4A, the advantage is simple. The schools are larger — between 34 percent and 236 percent bigger — than 3A/2A/1A schools. That means a larger pool of potential players from which to pick.
Many 3A/2A/1A coaches say that the 11 players on the field, not the population of their schools, matter. A couple cited Douglass, a 3A/2A/1A team that spent the 2005 season in the 4A. That team went 12-0 against its county 4A competitors and beat them by an average score of 36-6, including a pair of playoff wins to win the region.
Pinkney said his 2005 team was the most talented he ever had, perhaps not making it the best example of 3A/2A/1A superiority.
"It would be premature for me to assume that it would be like that no matter what year we were up in the 4A or so on," Pinkney said. "I just think, that year, we had a lot of good things going for us."
Still, Pinkney said many doubted his team's ability to compete in the upper league, and he relished proving them wrong. So did Crump.
"There's this theory out here in the county that because you're a bigger school, you think you can beat a smaller school," Crump said. "I don't think that's true in this area. I think that's true somewhere else in most cases, but in this case, in this county, I don't think that's true."
Parrish and Crump said they were rooting for their league to win the other games of the Pigskin Classic besides their own.
Pinkney said, on one hand, he'd root for league-mates Potomac and Gwynn Park. On the other hand, Douglass is competing with those teams for playoff berths.
Hayes didn't state a preference for the Classic, which has a format suggested by the county's coaches.
"We're just doing things to get everything riled up," Hayes said. "But basically, I don't even look at it in that aspect of competition. We're all Prince George's County."
But across the county, many more coaches are watching this weekend's game with league bragging rights at least in the back of their minds.
"I don't think you're going to get too many coaches to just flat-out say our league is better. You may have some 4A schools, they probably say that their league is better, because they have more numbers," Pinkney said. "But I'm not a fan of that philosophy. I just really want to see us play. I want to see our teams play, and I want to see how it works out."

Nurses at 3.4 million strong and the most trusted profession, have the power to make a difference! By choosing nutritious foods and an active lifestyle, managing stress, living tobacco-free, getting preventive immunizations and screenings, and choosing protective measures such as wearing sunscreen and bicycle helmets, nurses can set an example on how to BE healthy.
Accessible to all registered nurses and RN students, ANA is providing a comprehensive health risk appraisal (HRA) in collaboration with Pfizer Inc, free of charge. This HIPAA-compliant HRA gives nurses real-time data on their health, safety, and wellness, personally and professionally. Nurses can compare their results to national averages and ideal standards. Eventually, nurses will be able to compare their results to those of other nurses in specific groupings such as age or nursing specialty, when statistically relevant numbers are reached. Upon completion of the HRA, nurses are directed to a web wellness portal, filled with interactive quizzes, games, and pertinent resources. The HRA builds nursing data, inclusive of all ages and both sexes.
Visit www.anahra.org now to take the HRA!
Just think, if all 3.4 million registered nurses increase their personal wellness and that of just some of their family, community, co-workers and patients, what a healthier world we would live in!

On write up Baldwin effect at the bottom of the writeup itself.
htmlcode 'voteit ' raised compile-time error:
Server Error (Error Id 2281396)!
An error has occured. It has been logged. Apologies for the inconvenience. If it persists, contact an administrator
I'm currently using chrome.
Theme: bookwormier by ascorbic*
....now is appearing on all the writeups. Huh.
Time 4:01:19 server time 5/15/14 (9:01 pm where I am 5/14/14)
Seems to be continuing on the Balwin effect node but not all the others.
Zephronias got it too, and notes that it replaced the voting option.
5/15/14 server time 14:26:29 (my time 7:30 am) bug in my bug write up.
...uh, tried to publish this and it won't and says !!!bad workup type 0!!! under title and in right hand upper corner says "never".
We're not perfect. There are a lot of items that need work, and a lot of different things that are broken in minute ways. They are the growing pains of a publicly developed website. We are in a constant state of beta, but hey, it keeps things exciting. We'd like you to report any problems that you're having, because we, the caretakers and floorwashers, like this to be a generally pleasant experience for you.
Although we're working on a ticketing system, for the moment it is not complete, so please for now just tell us here where we messed up, and hopefully it will work out.
Things that probably are NOT bugs:
Also, when I search for this node . I got a 404.(The link is just to the period, nothing else. Oh wait that isn;t really a bug is it? More to do with putting a period in the url and that not working. Hmm... maybe code it so it redirects to the html code like other symbols seem to?)
Also, users homenodes don't adjust the most recent writeup written for self-nukes. (not sure if this is still a problem)
Special symbols on everything2 seem inconsistent. They alternate between what they are and diamonds with question marks in them. - Halloween Server time 2012
My Node Scent of a Woman double posted in new writeups and showed up as two separate things in node tracker. Reverting it back to draft got rid of one of the links in new writeups but left the other. One of them also still remianed in my writeups list. The remaining link led to the nodeshell. borgo nuked the shell but then it read "no parent node" in new writeups. borgo then made a new nodeshell which was then automatically filled up with my writeup (albeit, the one with less votes of the two in node tracker). Currently in my drafts I have two for Scent of a Woman, one is marked as having been removed, the other has the "(1)" next to it which i usually see when I post a new w/u but the draft still exists.
This is a somewhat niche thing, but when I'm using my iPad and a Bluetooth keyboard in the catbox, it registers key presses as doubled ALL THE TIME. It also then double-registers the backspaces so correcting each can take like 5 cycles. I think this is because there's a lot of JScript stuff going on with the catbox and iPad Safari just can't keep up. It also loses the insert point when the 'box autoupdates and scrolls. The double-type doesn't happen when editing nodes, just in the catbox (with autoupdate on).
Private messages are provided by default in the chatterbox nodelet, which both chatterlight and chatterlighter use. However, if you have the Messages nodelet disabled, the chatterbox nodelet does not display private messages, so you don't get them listed twice. However, in the case of chatterlight and chatterlighter, this means you have to go to another page to view your private messages.
This is known behavior. My thought on the matter are that (1) chatterlight should be retired and (2) chatterlighter should have a tab for the Messages nodelet if it's enabled.

I have a reward up on Everything's Most Wanted... For reasons unexplained it's up there twice.
I have a suspicion about this - the second, lower reward used to be my ransom for Lake Baikal, but when a user cashed that in it didn't leave the page... Now, since I've added a new reward, it's entry on the page has become a duplicate of the new one... There's a fuxed indexing table somewhere, methinks.
Not quite what Auduster suspected. I was on this one and forgot about it. It's actually pretty simple, and due to the fragile design of Most Wanted. Whether a user has a bounty is tracked in their VARS. If this value somehow gets lost from somebody's VARS, when they award a bounty, the bounty won't be removed. Most Wanted just needs to be made a little more robust in this fashion.
User Clockmaker reports that the achievement "Printing Press", which is supposed to be awarded for writing more writeups than any other noder in a month, does not appear to function. The code in question is located in writeupsMonthMost and simply returns 0. It was likely disabled after the switch to InnoDB, as aggregate statements, like the GROUP BY that was inevitably used, are far more expensive with row level locks.
This should be a monthly cron job (or implemented, equivalently, in a nodelet) which queries all writeups published in a month grouped by publisher_id, finds if there's a clear winner (SELECT COUNT(node_id) 'num_published' ... ORDER BY num_published LIMIT 2, if the two num_published don't match, there's a winner; or do something more complex to award to all people who tie for most that month), and awards the achievement appropriately. This is a good candidate to use the slave MySQL DB since stale data is unlikely to have an effect.

Users IWhoSawTheFace and Tem42 both reported difficulty viewing their own homenodes. This is most likely due to timeouts, being exacerbated by the presently overtaxed servers.
Diagnosis is difficult since neither user has provided further details in an E2 Bugs entry. If you have a problem like this, please report it here and provide time you were accessing your homenode (including timezone) and browser(s) you were using.
In general, a large number of slow pageloads right now are for user homenodes, whether accessed by the user erself or by others. Most likely, accessing it by erself tips things over the edge because the counting of messages to oneself is fairly expensive. Profiling homenode display would be wise. The issue may simply be that there are many htmlcodes used only in homenode display, so a bunch of code has to be loaded from disk, and homenodes are relatively rarely displayed, so we might want to trim them down.
Now that htmlcodes are being cached, the voting footers (maybe still in voteit ...?) accumulate text from each previous run. This causes a confusing display esp. on E2 Bugs because the "(unvoteable)" text repeats a dozen times by the final writeup in the node.
Using the ABC button to strike out text in the WYSIWIG editor causes the text to appear struck out in the editor but only in the editor. If you click on the "HTML" button, it shows no tag has been added, and submitting effectively erases the formatting.
The indent button also appears to do nothing, reflecting only upon first application, but not actually changing any HTML. It should create a blockquote.
It seems that nuking a recently-C!ed writeup causes it to remain in the Cool User Picks table, marked as having no chings. (C.f. at the time of writing »The Silence«, by Glowing Fish.) I expect you've noticed this already, but have a formal bug report.
I'm having trouble posting to the everyone account. I clicked "advanced options" (after finishing my draft) and checked the box for publishing under as everyone.
then nothing happened. the writeups listing did not include the new node and the node i created had "("Code Year" is also a: writeup.)" on the top right corner, above the add to categories thing. on the top left corner it had "!!! bad WU type: 0 !!!".
This is such a small thing that it seems churlish to complain, and I don't even remember if browsers provide an interface to scroll textareas. But it's bothered me for nearly a decade now. If they do, it would be very nice if, upon updating a draft, the textarea in which the draft is composed were scrolled to the bottom automatically, rather than the top, given that that's where you're likely to be concentrated.
This is a particularly odd one - searching for buffalo buffalo buffalo buffalo buffalo buffalo buffalo brings up a Nothing Found page - though searching for buffalo or buffalo buffalo buffalo buffalo buffalo buffalo buffalo buffalo correctly take you straight to those nodes, while buffalo buffalo buffalo buffalo buffalo buffalo goes to a Findings page. OldMiner explains that this is because when E2 finds a draft you can't see, it returns Nothing Found rather than Findings. Which should be easily fixed. Fixed -jb
Also - it turns out that if someone includes broken comments in the form <!--h5> ... <--/h5> that totally breaks the page, rather than just commenting out the rest of the writeup as it probably should, in principle.
Clicking the r link to reply to a /msg from Serjeant's Muse gives me
/msg Serjeant39;s_Muse
Which in turn gets me a message telling me to quit shitting so big because it's clogging the pipes.
softlinks to "Letter to the Editor of email@example.com" show as "http://everything2.com/title/Letter+to+the+Editor+of+WomenCentral%2540microsoft.com". which i guess is 'cause of the @ in the title. see Is anorexia genetic?
Update 11 April: after being informed it looked fine on FF, and I saw it looked fine in Safari, this appears to be only occuring in IE 7 for me.
Another bug, or just not implemented?:
Notifications settings gives me an option that will notify me when "a writeup of yours gets edited by an editor or administrator." It hasn't! also, would this include a draft? Only the author can edit a draft - dj...unless collaborators are added! -gnarl
when logging in (browser: Safari) while on this page (node_id=817023) the url changed to this, and
i get an error message that the page doesn't exist.
Node tracker does not note unpublished wus, or republished wus from drafts.
however, changes in rep to a republished wu show the wu chronologicly where it was before republishing, although the public publish date is changed.
April 2012: IE 7 browser does not allow me to create drafts or nodes. update: borgo has reported the same problem in the same browser version.
April 2012: if a user publishes a new wu, then reverts it to private draft, it still shows up as their most recent wu, but leads to nothing found, or a page without their wu. see mauler for an example. Update: fixed by donjaime!
Nov 2012 attempting to publish as another user, in my case both Virgil and everyone ends with the published wu notes as !!badwriteuptype!! . It also shows a link to the original node title as 'X is also a node'.
Nov 2012 Attempting to publish THIS wu as me gets this error page (subsequent checking has shown the page appears due to having links within beginning with http://everything2.com):
'Draft not ready for publication
You may have read E2 Quick Start a little too quickly.
Writeups on Everything2 should include links to other pages on the site. You can make an on-site link like this: Hard link or like this: show another. This way, each writeup is integrated with the rest of the site and new and old works can complement each other.
You can also link to other websites like this: external link, but external links do not help to integrate a writeup into Everything2.
Do not use the external link format to link to other pages on this site.'
Apparently level 0 users can see categories created by Guest User on their category nodelet, along with an 'Add To Category' link, but these links do nothing.
Usergroup leaders do not appear to have a way to edit the user group descriptions.
The vote count in the header ("you have 2 votes left today") runs one page load behind. So if you spend two votes in a node, it will not record this after you vote, but only after you move onto the next page. Not a major bug, but I thought I'd mention it. I do have AJAX turned on.
NEW! When you remove a writeup back to draft, there is no indication as to how you would access it again. You cannot see your draft in the nodeshell, I received no msg upon removing my WU, and searching for the draft title just found the nodeshell. Very frustrating.
It is also annoying that the 'repost draft' option is in a different place than the options used to post the draft originally. Why make people go hunting?
NEW! The message "Table formatting error: table closed with /tr" appeared as soon as I posted a node. I would rather that the message appear when I updated the draft... After all, the point of a draft is to catch that sort of thing.
If bug reports that can not be worked on quickly (or are not worth working on) could be deleted (and recorded elsewhere as necessary), that would make posting a second bug report easier.
The Gold star notification message is truncated, or at least needs some tweaking.
Cool Man Eddie says Sweet! Klaproth just awarded you a Gold Star, because superduperbeautifulnode
That's all. Not even a link to the superduperbeautifulnode in question. Also, the link to Gold Star is broken and the italic tags around the node title (but not around the word "says"!!?!) render as <i></i> in Message Inbox (but not Chatterlight??!?) (but that might just be my screwy style defacer stuff)
Everything2 doesn't use or have https, AFAICT.
One could debate that this is a feature suggestion, but I posit that it is indeed a bug.
My homenode seems to be the buggiest thing in existence. I don't know why, but weird, crazy stuff seems to happen there all the time. Here's the latest.
Recently, words on my homenode that have been linked, with the standard square brackets, have started getting truncated. Chopped in half, shrunk down to a single letter, erased completely, except for the brackets. I normally fix these (or try to fix them, if I can't figure out what it was supposed to be), but I've left some of it up as an example. In this case, most of my usergroup listing -- usually stated as "Hey, do you like (x)? Do you like noding about (x)? Then you need to join the e2x usergroup!" The names of the usergroups have been chopped down to just the initial "e" -- instead of "e2comix" or "e2horror", it just reads "e".
It's possible this has something to do with using a non-letter character, as several other truncated links had numerals or other symbols in them.
If it helps, I'm using the dim jukka emulation by archiewood.
August 4, 2014 - Problem: xmltrue displaytype is broken. (FIXED)
April 2013
Not really a bug, but isSpider contains two references to 'ia_archiver'.
Also, I clicked the 'remove writeup' link on an existing E2 Bugs writeup of mine. I now have 3 drafts with the same title, and since that means they all have the same semantic URL, I can only view one of them.
I'm guessing that when un-publishing a writeup, there should be a check to see if there is an existing draft with the same title as the newly unpublished writeup. If so, one of their titles needs to be changed.
Dec 2, 2013 - Bugs above still exist, and in fact I had a problem getting this draft posted because of the draft issue above.
New Bug - December 2, 2013
NOTE: This bug features a node with an extremely long title which may be part of the problem.
All the writeups in Don't kill your invisible husband to see what he looks like or you'll sob your heart out. But don't worry about the millions of invisible men coming to attack your village because they won't kill you if you don't know how to fight them. all have a weird ending string appended to them.
They are named:
Don't kill your invisible husband to see what he looks like or you'll sob your heart out. But don't worry about the millions of invisible men coming to attack your village because they won't kill you if you don't know how to fight them. (id
Notice the " (id" at the end.
Another one: Just noticed after posting this, that it didn't post hidden even though it's in a maintenance node.
Ignore this line. It is a test: Ralph
Writeups which don't meet certain checkpoints are given helpful messages courtesy of writeup settings, with instructions that these warnings can be turned off in writeup settings. The problem here is that the link to writeup settings is broken, and should instead point to general settings.
Update 2/5/2015
On both We Need To Talk and Virgil's Links on Everything2 pages, using the default theme in chrome at 8:00 PM EST, the format used to link to a specific writeup inside of a node seems to not be working. Writing (with brackets instead of parentheses) (Beat(by mjijm)) or (Ralph(by webster 1913)) directs as a hardlink would. If this isn't a bug, then the Links writeup should be edited to reflect the correct format.
Hi E2 Bugs:
At 3:55 by the ascorbic.net clock on 5/15/14, on Baldwin effect write up. Voting buttons were replaced by this error message: htmlcode 'voteit ' raised compile-time error: Server Error (Error Id 2281396)! An error has occured. It has been logged. Apologies for the inconvenience. If it persists, contact an administrator
I'm using Firefox but when the error occurred I was using Chrome.
Theme is bookwormier by ascorbic.
I tried to publish this on 5/15/14 about 7 am US Pacific time and got another error....
says !!!bad workup type 0!!! under title and in right hand upper corner says "never".
As I'm returning nodes, I'm noticing that the metadata (votes, XP, etc) is missing, meaning they're getting voted and C!ed up again. Should I be concerned about this as gaming the system or shrug and accept it?
alex sez: Known flaw in procedure design which may be addressed some day. DonJaime adds only affects writeups that were nuked back in the old days, so should become less relevant in time.
Stars circumvent ignoring and abominating. Should probably fix this, as it can be used to communicate through said ignoring and abominating. Thanks.
This is a test writeup. Please don't remove this without asking me. -jaybonci
To Whom It May Concern:
Some of the recent fixes to E2 seem to have made reading, writing, and voting much harder during Iron Noder.
I used to be able to buy an extra C! right before server time, thus getting 2 C!s to give in one day. Now, it confines me to exactly 24 hours, to the minute...annoying.
I reported that when I vote, sometimes the old voting circles appear, flicker, then disappear. Still happening.
Add to bookmarks feature no longer works, annoying too.
When searching for links, I am no longer able to choose a specific writer's node; what's with that?
I sincerely appreciate all who work on code behind the scenes, but these are all things which worked fine before.
I'm sorry if I don't understand how all of this works, but it's frustrating.

We already knew that Greyhounds at racetracks suffer immensely. But today, Greyhound advocate group GREY2K USA released a report that shows just how bad things are for dogs forced to race in Texas.
The report, produced with funding from the ASPCA, showed that at Texas racetracks:
• Greyhounds are forced to live in confined, stacked cages, with large Greyhounds being unable to stand fully erect in their cages.
• In 2012, six Greyhounds died at Gulf Greyhound Park from a form of canine influenza, often a recurring epidemic in cramped living situations.
• In 2011, a Texas Greyhound trainer failed to obtain veterinary care for an injured Greyhound until two days after the injury occurred.
• Greyhounds are fed 4-D meat from diseased animals to reduce costs.
The report also showed that1,507 greyhound injuries were reported at Texas racetracks from January 2008 through December 2011. Fifty-six of these injuries were fatal or required euthanasia, with the most commonly reported injury being broken legs. Other serious injuries reported included torn muscles, puncture wounds, a fractured skull and paralysis.
Frankly, we don't see why the Texas dog racing industry doesn't just throw in the towel—Lone Star State residents are way over dog racing. The report shows that gambling on dog racing and dog race attendance are way, way down.
