It's often said that the best source material for songs comes from your life – your friends, your family and every day occurrences. And if that's the case, Iris DeMent won't run out of things to write about any time soon.
DeMent, the youngest of 14 children, was born in Arkansas, raised in California and grew up immersed in gospel and traditional country music. Though she didn't write her first song until age 25, her first release, "Infamous Angel," established her as a blooming tour de force in the industry. Her sophomore follow-up, "My Life," earned a Grammy nomination, as did her 1996 album, "The Way I Should."
Is there anything left to accomplish when a legend like Merle Haggard calls you, "The best singer I've ever heard"? There was for DeMent, whose songs like "Let The Mystery Be" and "Our Town" became ingrained in American culture, she simply kept plugging away. In 2004, she recorded an album of gospel songs called "Lifeline." Another highlight came six years later, when the Coen Brothers chose a song from that album, "Leaning on the Everlasting Arms," for the closing credits of a remake of the classic western "True Grit."
On October 2, 2012, DeMent released her first album of original songs in 16 years, "Sing the Delta." It was recorded in Nashville, with an all-star supporting cast that included Bryan Owings on drums, Dave Jacques on bass, Al Perkins on pedal steel and Reese Wynana on B3 organ. Jim Hoke and Steve Herman also sat in as horn players. The project, of course, was heralded by fans and critics alike.
DeCant will soon set off on a December tour of New Zealand and Australia. She'll return stateside in the new year, and has dates booked through May 2014.

UNCTAD Global Investment Trends Monitor says prospects for 2012 remain guarded. Developing country share of outflows declined slightly in 2011
Held in conjunction with UNCTAD XIII, World Investment Forum 2012 will discuss policies needed for making investment by multinational companies and sovereign wealth funds work for sustainable development. Participating will be high-level representatives from business, government and international organizations.
A new UNCTAD publication, sequel to the 1999 Pink Series paper on fair and equitable treatment (FET), analyses the FET clause in international investment agreements (IIAs), drawing on past experiences to assist States in drafting IIA clauses that suit their specific policy objectives and help promote sustainable development.
Countries recognize the need to attract foreign investors as investment policies continue to be generally favourable to foreign investment.

Lysophosphatidylcholine, Plasma
Clinical Information Discusses physiology, pathophysiology, and general clinical aspects, as they relate to a laboratory test
Lysophosphatidylcholine (LPC), also referred to as lysolecithin, is the most abundant lysophospholipid in blood. LPCs may originate from the enzyme lecithin cholesterol acyltransferase (LCAT), by hepatic secretion or via phospholipase A2 activity. The framework of LPC species includes a glycerol frame, one fatty acid, and phosphocholine. The primary fatty acid species LPC associates with in plasma include palmitic acid (16:0) and stearic acid (18:0).(1) The 16:0 LPCs are enriched in HDL whereas the 18:0 forms are predominantly associated with the apolipoprotein-B-containing lipoproteins very-low-density lipoprotein (VDRL) and low-density lipoprotein (LDL). This association may reflect distinct metabolic pathways for individual LPC species.(2)
LPC is a major component of oxidized LDL which is thought to promote atherogenesis by increasing the chemotactic activity of monocytes, inducing adhesion molecules on endothelial cells and accumulating in ischemic myocardium.(3,4) Plasma LPC concentrations may be increased in individuals with various types of cancer and in non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus. Decreased concentrations of LPC may be seen in patients with hypoalphalipoproteinemia or acquired diseases such as renal failure.(5) Low LPC concentrations alone are not specific for LCAT deficiency. The LCATD / Lecithin Cholesterol Acyltransferase Deficiency Profile should be ordered if LCAT deficiency is suspected. Results of this profile only give a phenotypic interpretation and molecular testing is recommended for confirmation of LCAT deficiency.
LPC is also a source of lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) which is formed from LPC via hydrolysis. LPA has significant biological activities related to smooth muscle contraction, tumor cell invasion, and cell proliferation.
Useful For Suggests clinical disorders or settings where the test may be helpful
A screening aid in patients presenting with decreased high density lipid (HDL) cholesterol, to investigate potential hypoalphalipoproteinemia phenotypes prior to confirmatory molecular testing
Interpretation Provides information to assist in interpretation of the test results
Decreased concentrations of 16:0 lysophosphatidylcholine (LPC) and 18:0 LPC may suggest lecithin cholesterol acyltransferase deficiency. Results must be interpreted in the context of the patient's clinical presentation.
Cautions Discusses conditions that may cause diagnostic confusion, including improper specimen collection and handling, inappropriate test selection, and interfering substances
No significant cautionary statements
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.

Our Philosophy &
Student clubs and organizations are an important part of the undergraduate economics program, as they define a key component of student life here on campus and offer opportunities to be involved both at Carnegie Mellon and in the greater Pittsburgh community.
Our students are active participants in our clubs and organizations, including over 300 hundred clubs and organizations sponsored by Carnegie Mellon student organizations and extracurricular activities. These clubs and organizations include:
Carnegie Mellon Economics Society
Economics - Student Advisory Committee
The undergraduate economics program's Student Advisory Council (E-SAC) is an umbrella organization that whose mission to provide feedback on undergraduate issues including curriculum, course scheduling, events and professional development; and organize social and meta-curricular events for our community.
Recent symposiums:
Recent workshop topics:
Moneythink CMU
Moneythink CMU teaches financial literacy to 6-12 graders in Pittsburgh public and charter schools, and to youth in the foster care system. Our chapter has brought meaningful and innovative changes to the national Moneythink model - and has won a national award. Read the university's cover story and watch the accompanying video about our chapter and about read about the ProSEED/Crosswalk Seed grant awarded to our chapter.
Omicron Delta Epsilon, the International Honor Society in Economics
ΟΔΕ, the International Honor Society in Economics, is dedicated to the encouragement of excellence in economics. In addition to achieving success in the classroom, the Carnegie Mellon chapter of ΟΔΕ has additional requirements for membership, including that students volunteer their economic area of expertise and experience in the Pittsburgh community.
Students for Undergraduate Research in Economics
Students for Undergraduate Research in Economics (SURE) is a student organization that cultivates undergraduate student-faculty and undergraduate student-graduate student relationships with the specific goal of exposing and fostering undergraduate student access to economic research on the Carnegie Mellon campus. SURE's mission is to provide opportunities for undergraduates to be presented with faculty and graduate student research, match on campus research opportunities with undergraduate students and provide a forum for undergraduates to discuss their own research. So that undergraduate students are better equipped to participate in research, SURE also offers meta-curricular workshops whose aim is develop undergraduate students' knowledge of programming languages, database structures and enhance students' graphic, visual and oral presentation skills.
Recent activities include workshops on statistical programming software, data visualization, database structures, transforming from student to professional and choosing a senior honors thesis topic and advisor.

Test ID: TACIG
Transmembrane Activator and CAML Interactor (TACI) Gene, Known Mutation Analysis
Useful For Suggests clinical disorders or settings where the test may be helpful
Identifying the presence of a TACI gene mutation in a symptomatic patient when the mutation has been identified in an affected family member
Clinical Information Discusses physiology, pathophysiology, and general clinical aspects, as they relate to a laboratory test
Transmembrane activator and CAML interactor (TACI) is a member of the tumor-necrosis factor (TNF)-like receptor family, a group of receptors that regulate both survival and apoptosis of immune cells.(1) TACI is expressed on the surface of resting B cells and activated T cells, but not resting T cells. TACI interacts with 2 ligands-BAFF (B-cell activating factor), also known as BLys (B-lymphocyte stimulator), which belongs to the TNF family, and APRIL (a proliferation-inducing ligand). The ligands for TACI are expressed on macrophages, monocytes, and dendritic cells.(1) TACI regulates isotype class-switching of immunoglobulins and also is involved in the antibody response to T-independent antigens.(2)
TACI is encoded by the TACI gene (official symbol, TNFRSF13B). The human TACI gene locus is located on the short arm of chromosome 17, which is a common target for mutation and rearrangement.(2) The TACI gene consists of 5 exons spanning approximately 35 kb (including 1002 bp upstream of the 5' untranslated region [UTR] and 1024 bp downstream of the 3' UTR). The mRNA length is 1377 bp, encoding for a 294-amino acid protein with a molecular weight of 32.34 kD. Six mutations (D68X [also called L69fsX11], C104R, S144X, A181E, S194X, and R202H) were identified in the TACI gene in the original reports.(3,4) Of these 6 mutations, 4 (D68X, C104R, A181E, and R202H) have been shown to be statistically significant in common variable immunodeficiency (CVID) and selective IgA deficiency (sIgAD) patients, when compared to controls.(5) Several other mutations have been reported, but none of these appear to be statistically significant when compared to controls.(5) Two other mutations, P251L and V220A, are considered to be rare polymorphisms as they are present in both controls and patients.(3-5) The TACI gene mutations described so far are nonsense, missense, or frameshift (due to the insertion of a single extra nucleotide) mutations, all of which can be detected by gene sequencing. No large deletions or duplications have been reported for this gene at this time.
TACI gene mutations account for 8% to 15% of CVID cases depending on the study population and are sporadic in the majority of cases. The familial TACI gene mutations can be inherited in either an autosomal dominant or autosomal recessive fashion. There also appears to be variable penetrance in the familial TACI gene mutations.(7) TACI gene mutations appear to be strongly associated with lymphoproliferative diseases such as splenomegaly or tonsillar hypertrophy. Autoimmune thyroiditis is observed in 15% of TACI gene mutation-positive CVID cases. The incomplete penetrance seen for TACI gene mutations indicates that a mutation can be present, but the individual does not develop the disease phenotype.
The known TACI gene mutations appear, in most cases, to be associated with normal protein expression with aberrant or absent functional activity and require gene sequencing analysis to confirm the presence of the mutation as well as correlation with the clinical phenotype.
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.
An interpretive report will be provided.
Interpretation Provides information to assist in interpretation of the test results
An interpretive report will be provided that describes the presence or absence of the previously identified mutations, and their potential clinical significance. Variants of unknown clinical significance within the specific exon being evaluated also will be documented in the report.
Cautions Discusses conditions that may cause diagnostic confusion, including improper specimen collection and handling, inappropriate test selection, and interfering substances
Patients who have received a heterologous blood transfusion within the preceding 6 weeks, or who have received an allogeneic blood or marrow transplant, can have inaccurate genetic test results due to presence of donor DNA.
This test will only determine if the specific mutation previously described in a family member is present or not.
Only symptomatic family members of an affected patient, in whom a mutation has been identified, should be tested with this assay.

Hi Perry.
Just gave this build a quick look. Still can't create an address book yet! So is anything created in the way of contacts lost? I imagine so for now. I guess then that importing of contacts is still a little ways off then.
In creating a contact I can only bring the four fields showing in the control pallet over: Formatted Name, Given Name, Family Name, and Additional Name. I have entered some Given and Family names - are they to represent First and Last names? Or something else? What is the Additional Name? And I initially thought that the Formatted Name field would be kind of a "Display As" field, automatically filled by the other name fields that are manually populated, but that doesn't seem to be the case. Or at least not yet - perhaps this is simply something that isn't yet implemented?
Anyway I am not certain what can be done just yet with this. I am probably missing some information at this point. Is there more I need to read somewhere?

Sunday, September 30, 2001Johnson City, Tenn. -- The East Tennessee State Buccaneer men's golf team shot a final-round 306 to finish in 11th place in the Ping/Golfweek Preview Invitational that concluded Sunday afternoon from the Ohio State University Scarlet Course in Columbus, Ohio. The Bucs finished at 39-over par (292-293-306=891), 29 shots behind team champion, Clemson. The Tigers led wire-to-wire in the tournament, but had to birdie the final hole to avert a late charge by Wake Forest. Freshman Cennydd Mills continued the impressive start to his ETSU career, shooting a 2-over par 73 in the final round to finish in a tie for 19th at 6-over par (72-74-73=219). Junior Adam Riddering finished the tournament in a tie for 37th at 10-over par (73-70-80=223) after shooting a final round 9-over par 80. Fellow junior James Johnson finished one stroke behind Riddering in a tie for 43rd at 11-over par (72-74-78=224). Freshman Noel Kavanaugh shot an 8-over par 79 to finish the tournament in a tie for 64th at 17-over par (76-75-79=230). One of the players that Kavanaugh tied with was ETSU freshman Marco Trejos, who also tied for 64th (75-79-76=230) after firing a 5-over par 76 on Sunday. The Buccaneer men's golf team will now travel to The Farm Golf and Country Club in Dalton, Ga. for the Carpet Capital Collegiate Tournament. The tournament will tee off on Friday, Oct. 5 and will continue through Sunday, Oct. 7.

I believe there are a few different ways to do it.. If your upper and lower links are in parallel (per side) they don't do anything to locate the axle side to side, and you will need a panhard bar, or a scissors link.
Alternately, take a look at the bottom of page 2 and then page three on this link:
By having typically the upper links wide at the frame, and narrow at the axle, and then the lower links wide at the axle, and narrow at the frame, you get the lateral positioning of the axle fixed without needing a panhard bar or scissors link.
While we are messing with suspension geometries, anybody have a link to how to reduce the amount of anti Ackerman in a 05 F150? I'm getting fed up with never having edges on the tires, squealing while driving slowly around parking garages, and wouldn't mind it handling much more neutrally..

In 2012, the Orioles debuted the Birdland Passport program, a system to reward fans who visit Oriole Park as well as the Orioles' local minor league affiliates: the Norfolk Tides, Bowie Baysox, Frederick Keys, Delmarva Shorebirds, and Aberdeen Ironbirds. Fans received a free Passport at any of the parks they had attended games at five of the six venues, fans received a free Birdland Roadtrip t-shirt. Fans who attended games at all six ballparks were also entered into a drawing to receive a trip for two to 2013 Orioles Spring Training in Sarasota.
The OriolesREACH High Five Fundraising Program continues to help local non-profit groups, civic organizations, school and youth groups raise money for their efforts. In fact, since its inception in 2005, the High Five Program has helped to raise well over $1.4 million for the causes.
The Junior Orioles Dugout Club continues to offer an affordable way for kids and their families to enjoy Orioles Baseball and receive exclusive rewards. The club serves as a "mini plan for mini fans" age 14 and under, in which kids receive tickets to 10 specially selected games, a hat, membership card, backpack and more for only $20. Kids also receive exclusive giveaway items at every Dugout Club game. Family members and friends can also purchase tickets to Dugout Club games for just $6, with the opportunity to upgrade to lower level seats for $15. For each membership the Oriole Advocates sold at Camden Yards, $5 was donated by the Orioles to the Oriole Advocate Challenger League Program. In 2012, more than $4,500 was raised.
Through the MLB Commissioners Community Initiative and Players Give Back Ticket Program, the Orioles also provided more than 80,000 complimentary tickets to local nonprofit, volunteer and service organizations during the 2012 season.
Each season, the Orioles and OriolesREACH invite more than 12,000 children from disadvantaged areas in the region to experience the magic of Orioles Baseball as part of the OriolesREACH Gameday Experience Program. By partnering with various local non-profit and youth groups, OriolesREACH is able to provide children with free game tickets, concessions vouchers, Orioles t-shirts, caps and transportation to and from the game. In 2012, several Orioles players took part in the program, including Adam Jones, Nick Markakis, J.J. Hardy, Wei-Yin Chen Tommy Hunter, Jake Arrieta and Brian Matusz. More than 70,000 children have participated since the program's inception. Much like the longstanding program at Oriole Park at Camden Yards, the Orioles also continue to donate game tickets and concessions to underprivileged children in the Hampton Roads area with the Harbor Park OriolesREACH Gameday Experience Program. Since 2007, thousands of children have received free tickets to see the Norfolk Tides, the Orioles' AAA Minor League affiliate, and experience the thrill of professional baseball.

After winning its first Class 4A/3A West Region title in program history on Wednesday, senior Maddie Doan and the Sherwood High School girls lacrosse team turned their attention to playing Howard in the state semifinals. And, initially, they didn't like what they saw.
"Our goal for so long was just to win regions because Sherwood girls lacrosse had never done that before," Doan said. "We were so happy when we did, but then we realized we were playing another team from Howard County and we were like, 'Uh-oh. This could be it for the year.' Every year, [Montgomery County] teams went to states — we saw what happened to [Winston] Churchill in recent years — and they would get killed.
"But after we watched game film in practice, we realized we could compete. We saw we were just as good and we came in here pretty confident."
On Saturday, the Warriors made some more history and reversed the county's unpleasant trend, becoming the first Montgomery County girls lacrosse team to win a state tournament game. Sherwood (16-0) defeated Howard (12-6), 17-14, at Annapolis to advance to play Broadneck (17-3), which topped Catonsville 15-5 in the other semifinal, in the championship game on Tuesday or Wednesday at the University of Maryland, Baltimore County.
Doan, a Virginia Tech signee, scored a season-high eight goals to pace Sherwood's attack along with junior Johns Hopkins recruit Emily Kenul (3 goals, 3 assists) against the Lions.
"This means Montgomery County is getting better and better," Kenul said. "Not just us, all the teams in the area. This is big."
Early on it appeared that the game would follow a path similar to every other previous state tournament game involving a Montgomery County team, as Howard took a 2-0 lead with 19 minutes, 40 seconds remaining in the opening half. But Sherwood began to find its way. The Warriors rallied to take a 4-3 lead on a free position goal by Kenul at 14:13.
After Howard scored to cut the deficit to one, 7-6, at the 7:10 mark, Sherwood held possession for almost seven minutes, and Natalie Sebeck scored on a free position shot 14 seconds before halftime.
"The last couple games I haven't had to say a whole lot to get them fired up," second-year Sherwood coach Kelly Hughes said. "I think they get it now. They came out ... ready to go."
Added Kenul: "We knew we could score against them. And defensively, we just had to keep possession and not allow them to have the ball."
With all the momentum, the Warriors scored the first three goals coming out of the break and led by as many as seven, 17-10, after Doan scored for the final time.
"We knew for a long time that we had a really clear chance of winning the region," Hughes said. "Obviously that was historical for us, but at same time, we knew if we were to win that game, we would want more. All season we were preparing to play teams ... like [Howard]. We knew there was going to be a big difference outside our region."
Added Doan: "We proved something today — for us and the county — and are pretty confident. We have to continue to improve."

This is the best chili I've ever made. It was fantastic. I had some concerns because it is made with a bottle of beer, but we couldn't taste it in the final product. This chili does have a kick to it. You can easily adjust the heat by reducing or eliminating the red pepper and hot sauce. I used Ro-tel tomato sauce in the recipe. If you can't find the Ro-tel tomato sauce, use 2 cans of regular tomato sauce and 1 4oz can of green chilies.
We topped the chili with some cheese, sour cream, jalapeños and Fritos. It was a real crowd pleaser! Everyone loved it. I browned the meat and mixed up the chili the night before. I let the chili simmer on the stove before the game. This recipe would also do great in the crock pot. This chili perfect for chilly weather games!
Game Day Chili
adapted from Southern Living
(Printable Recipe)
2 pounds ground chuck
2 Tbsp dried minced onion flakes
4 garlic cloves, minced
2 (15-oz) cans chili beans
3 (8-oz) cans Rotel tomato sauce*
1 (12-oz) bottle beer
1 (14 1/2-oz) can beef broth
1 (6-oz) can tomato paste
2 Tbsp chili powder
1 Tbsp Worcestershire sauce
2 tsp ground cumin
1 tsp ground red pepper
1 tsp paprika
1 tsp hot sauce
Brown meat in a Dutch oven over medium heat, stirring until meat crumbles and is no longer pink. Drain well. Return meat to Dutch oven. Add garlic and onion flakes. Cook 30 seconds. Add remaining ingredients. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer 3 hours, or until thickened.
Garnish with sour cream, cheese, jalapeños and Fritos - if desired.
*If you can't find the Ro-tel tomato sauce, use 3 cans of regular tomato sauce and 1 4oz can of green chilies.

There were points in the German Grand Prix for Jean-Eric Vergne and Jenson Button, but Sauber miss out again.
Toro Rosso:
Jean-Eric Vergne: "I'm very pleased with the weekend, I think it was a good one. As for the race, the team did a fantastic job to call me in straight after the safety car and everything worked well. The race was really nice and I had a lot of fun being in second position for some time. I knew that I didn't have the pace to keep up with the others around me until the end of the race but it was a great moment. Obviously I would have liked to finish in a better position to get more points but we still have to improve the performance level of the car. I'm confident that step by step this will come soon, so I'm really positive for the second part of the season."
Daniil Kvyat: "This was a very tough race. I'm not sure what happened at the start, it has never happened to me before. The engine just stalled and so I was forced to start from the pit lane. The first half of the race was not too bad, I tried to catch up but overtaking was difficult and I had a hard time looking after the tyres, especially being stuck behind the other cars. It's a shame we couldn't finish the first half of the season on a high note, but I'm sure we can turn things around and come back stronger at the next race."
Jenson Button: "I'm glad it was an exciting race for the fans, but it was a tough afternoon for us. We didn't make the right decisions today. The opening laps in the rain were great: I got up into fifth - which wasn't a bad position for us - but it went downhill from there. As the track started to dry, we thought it was going to rain again - unfortunately, however, we were the only ones thinking that. I feel like I did everything right, and in every track condition, which is why it's tough - but we win as a team and we lose as a team, and we'll quickly put this behind us and move on. It's the perfect time for the summer break - obviously, we're not where we want to be, but we've had some positive results, and the whole team has worked incredibly hard throughout this first half of the season. I hope that everybody can get the chance to recharge their batteries before we embark on what we hope will be a better half of the season."
Kevin Magnussen: "We didn't make the best of things today, but having started from the pitlane, I don't think I really lost too much by choosing to stay on the Inters when everybody pitted for dries. I know we took a risk to wait for more rain, but I think we had to take that risk. I don't think things would've been much different if we'd made a different strategy call, but we now need to sit down with the engineers and strategists to discuss it. Once we switched to the Prime, we didn't have the pace to challenge for too many points. After a race like today's, we just need to stay positive and look for areas where we can further improve. The whole team now has the opportunity to take a break, rest and return feeling stronger than ever. I want to thank everybody for their hard work, spirit and determination throughout these first 11 races - we can come back and achieve better things in the second half of the year."
Adrian Sutil: "The race started well, as I could gain positions during the start. I was pushing as much as I could, trying to drive very precisely and consistently. I was able to gain some positions and everything was going in the right direction. During the safety car period I came in for the pit stop, everything was right on target. After the restart, I was fighting with Kimi (Raikkonen) and trying to keep him behind. The pace was good and I was also able to keep up with the drivers in front of me. It was an unfortunate ending, but there are a lot of positives we can take from the weekend."
Esteban Gutierrez: "Finishing in P11 was very close to gaining one point. It was not an easy race, especially at the beginning with the difficult weather conditions and the two safety car periods. During the first safety car period we made our first pit stop. When I came to the box I had to wait as Esteban had not finished yet. I did loose some time, but I was fighting back. At the end I finished the race in 11th. In the corners I was faster than Jenson (Button), but I could not overtake him as he did not make any mistakes and drove away on the straights. However, it was a positive day as we came closer to the teams in front of us, and this is what counts."
Lotus F1:
Pastor Maldonado: "It was a tough race for us. It was a struggle to find enough grip and the track surface was very slippery. We didn't always have full power, which certainly added to the challenge in what was already a pretty difficult race with the changeable conditions. We weren't able to close in on the cars ahead along the straight which made it hard to overtake, and there aren't many places to overtake around here."
Romain Grosjean: "The conditions on the circuit this afternoon were very tricky and we couldn't get the best out of the tyres. We made the right call to move to slicks when the safety car came out - like most of the grid did - but I made a mistake when I was trying to keep the tyres warm. Unfortunately, I touched the white line and spun and that was it. I feel very sorry for everyone in the team who are giving everything they can to give me the best car possible. We didn't finish the race today which is very disappointing."

Iowa won its second game this season with a surprisingly hard-fought 83-75 win against Nebraska-Omaha. Here are three takeaways from the game:
1. It's too early to panic. Iowa delivered an uninspired effort against a better-than-expected squad. UNO crashed the boards for nine offensive rebounds in the first half and scored on seven of those possessions, totaling 15 second-chance points. On many of those second possessions, Iowa's defensive effort waned. But the Hawkeyes recovered in the second half to outscore the Mavericks by 15 points and win by eight.
Iowa also committed 12 turnovers in the first half, which led to 16 UNO points. The Mavericks scored on a couple of slop shots (banks and fadeaways), but they still were the aggressor and led 43-36 at halftime.
"You normally are not down seven," Iowa Coach Fran McCaffery said. "Normally, you're down 17. So they hit a a 3 late. They banked a couple of 3s in. We gave them some loose ball recovered that they laid in. Those kinds of plays, you know, demoralize a team when you're trying to come back.
"So for us, I thought, while it was disappointing that it happened, I felt really good about our toughness to overcome it, because when it keeps happening you feel like, 'OK, this just isn't our day.'"
When the Hawkeyes needed to turn it on, they did in the second half. They were able to do it with multiple parts, often with reserves at key junctures. Forwards Jarrod Uthoff and Zach McCabe, along with point guard Anthony Clemmons, came off the bench to play key roles in igniting a comeback.
"It shows we've got great character," Iowa junior Aaron White said. "The guys that finished the game weren't the same five who started the game. It shows we've got a deep team. Anthony came in and played phenomenal. Jarrod played well. Zach played well."
McCaffery is known for his red-faced sideline rants, but he doesn't get enough credit for knowing what his team needs in order to compete. Instead of throwing chairs in the locker room at halftime, he simply had a conversation with his players.
"He knew how we were," McCabe said. "We knew what we needed to do; that was the thing. He calmly came in and told us that you've just got to be smart, play our game and limit our turnovers. Play our offense and just be the aggressor."
2. Concern is legitimate. Iowa continues to whiff from 3-point range. The Hawkeyes hit 3 of 14 3-pointers and are 7-of-26 so far this season. The team ranked 11th in Big Ten 3-point percentage last year and lost its top outside shooter Josh Oglesby to a broken foot. Freshman Peter Jok is a solid 3-point shooter, but he has hit just 2-of-8 so far.
Iowa did knock down two 3-pointers when it mattered: one by McCabe to bring Iowa within one point and the game's most crucial shot from Clemmons to give Iowa its first lead in more than 25 minutes. Perimeter improvement is possible, but based off last year's numbers, it's a leap of faith to believe Iowa is capable of consistently making 35 percent from beyond the arc.
The Hawkeyes struggled with UNO's quickness and penetration, which they need to get figured out pronto. Maybe it was just a lack of focus on defense, but every guard in the Big Ten from Minnesota's Andre Hollins to Ohio State's Aaron Craft will hurt the Hawkeyes if their on-ball defense isn't much better. Iowa went to a zone defense early, but that also exposed some defensive liabilities.
"It was disappointing because we weren't as sharp — we clearly weren't as sharp as we were (Friday) night," McCaffery said. "But our effectiveness and execution and overall commitment to defending side ball screen action was not what it needed to be for this team.
"So that was disappointing. But it was better later, substantially better."
The real concern is Iowa had a sluggish beginning for the second straight week. They've picked up high praise this offseason as a team on the rise. That's legitimate. But going through the motions against motivated low-major teams may get you beat. And with a rugged Big Ten slate, one "oops" could prove costly at season's end. It could bump you down a line in NCAA bracketing or it could place you squarely on the tournament bubble.
"You can't take any opponent for granted. That's a big lesson you can learn from this game," White said. "Everyone on our schedule is very capable of beating us if we don't play the right way. Hopefully that opened some of our eyes (Sunday)."
3. Gesell fighting through struggles. Guard Mike Gesell has taken just three shots in Iowa's two games. He played only 14 minutes against UNO and didn't attempt a shot from the field. He scored one point, grabbed one rebound, dished one assist and had two turnovers. He sat out the final 15 minutes.
"I think his confidence, he's struggling a little bit with that," McCaffery said. "You know, I thought he was real tentative shooting the ball.
"I said, 'Mike, I need you to be aggressive. Shoot the ball. Drive the ball. Take it to the rim. Shoot your pull-up.' He's got a great pull-up game.
"He was missing guys on the break. He was clearly tentative. So that's why we took him out."
One play in particular displayed Gesell's tentativeness. Shortly before the second half's first media timeout, Iowa trimmed its deficit to one point. The Hawkeyes set up a defensive trap just past the half-court line. As the ball skipped near mid-court, the steal was there for Gesell. Instead he sat back, and UNO's Devin Patterson knocked down a jumper a few seconds later to extend the Mavericks' lead to three points.
"I think that's an example of his tentative nature right now," McCaffery said. "When he's playing Mike Gesell basketball, he steals it and goes down and dunks it. He's this close. We'll get him straightened out."

Gallery: Creating Cylindrical Prefab Homes From Renovated Grain Silos
If pop art were to cross paths with prefab housing, the result would likely look this Warhol-worthy prefab home. Designed by Austin + Mergold, A-House-In-A-Can is a single-family residence built in the round interior of a grain silo. Constructed with off-the-shelf components and clad with a prefabricated steel facade, this innovative prefab home design could be the perfect solution for your Warhol-loving, farm-living dreams.
Grain silos aren't difficult to source from farm supply companies and they are fairly sturdy, designed to withstand wind and rain while keeping the grain inside dry. Made from 14 GA galvanized corrugated steel (a little over 1/16″ thick), a grain silo could serve as a beefy, industrial looking exterior for a home. Similar in concept to using a shipping container as the shell for a project, grain silo fabrication is easily and cheaply accomplished.
The House-In-A-Can home design utilizes a 36-foot diameter grain silo and features with three levels totaling 2,000 square feet of living space. Two or three bedrooms can be located on the second level, with the living and dining space on the bottom. The top floor can be used as a deck, extended living space, or even a greenhouse. Also, multiple silos could be connected to each other to create larger homes or apartment blocks. And if you buy 5, Austin + Mergold will happily give you the 6th for free!

http://online.wsj.com/article/SB1000...234902106.htmlWhat stunned House Speaker John Boehner more than anything else during his prolonged closed-door budget negotiations with Barack Obama was this revelation: "At one point several weeks ago," Mr. Boehner says, "the president said to me, 'We don't have a spending problem.' "
I am talking to Mr. Boehner in his office on the second floor of the Capitol, 72 hours after the historic House vote to take America off the so-called fiscal cliff by making permanent the Bush tax cuts on most Americans, but also to raise taxes on high earners. In the interim, Mr. Boehner had been elected to serve his second term as speaker of the House. Throughout our hourlong conversation, as is his custom, he takes long drags on one cigarette after another.
Mr. Boehner looks battle weary from five weeks of grappling with the White House. He's frustrated that the final deal failed to make progress toward his primary goal of "making a down payment on solving the debt crisis and setting a path to get real entitlement reform." At one point he grimly says: "I need this job like I need a hole in the head."
An interesting story about the fiscal cliff negotiations from Boehner's point of view, including a preview of the coming debt ceiling debate.
This particular quote from Boehner deserves special mention:
Sums it up pretty much, in my view. Boehner seems fairly confident about the coming debt ceiling fight, but the same quote will apply then that applied now.Even though a majority of Republicans voted no, and he took flak from conservative groups as a sellout, "in the end, most of our members wanted this to pass, but they didn't want to vote for it."

I've a Stomvi Master in C and his revolutionari combi mothpiece
I have my french besson large bore b-flat trumpet and a 1 1/4c vincent bach megatone mouthpiece.
I Play a marcinkiewicz rembrant, kanstul flug sig model. schulke13b mouthpiece, for lead, classical, and solo playing,
I play on a newer horn, A Cannonball Brass Stone Series Big Bell 725 Bb Trumpet
The finish is Black Nickel Plate, which looks cool as hell and darkens the tone, along with the stone in the lower pipe chech it out at http://www.cannonballmusic.com/stonetrumpets.php
I play Bach 3C (Gold Plated)
The equipment you play makes no difference if you can't enjoy how you play it's all about your Ego Machine!!
I play a Bach 73 ML bore with a Monette 1-5 mouthpiece.
I play 2 main trumpets, both handmade at http://www.eclipsetrumpets.com:
1. LR (large Red brass) Bb
2. MS (Medium rimless bell "solar") Bb
I'm also coming out with a new line of mouthpieces in the next month or so… they've been in development for quite some time. The closest conventional size I can come to is like a NY Bach 3C with a MUCH more efficient cup shape, throat shape, and backbore taper. Details soon at my site at http://www.austincustombrass.com (still developing the site).
They are dreams come true for me and finally have made me stop buying equipment! They fit me like a well-tailored Armani Suit.
a yamaha xeno with a monette prana b2, and a monette c 937 with (two) stc-3's.. a c1-1 and a c 1-2
I play Schilke 14 and wonder for Monette stc-3
What choose model you all order for me?? :)
i have a 789RL Big Bell Bavarion Lion (Raw Brass) from Cannonball. I used to play a B1-5M but it wore my chops out too fast so I play a pretty standard Bach 5C. Not much difference in sound. The cannonball still is just as warm and strong/bright and edgy as i want it to be at any moment.
Bach S180ML37 here with a Bach 3C-25-24 screw rim mouthpiece. Top that. :-)
I also have an Olds L12 flugel with a Bach 3CFL piece. Nice tone.
Can Anyone tell me what monette mouthpieces is close to a Bach 5c mouthpiece.
I really don't know. I haven't had a chance to collect any mp literature. If you have a Bach and you wish to make a change, I'd look into their screw rims. You can keep the same rim and modify any underparts to your liking. When you get an underpart modified to your tastes, you can have the mp that you desire. I once switched out my 3C cup for a 3E cup for Handel's Halleluh (sp) Chorus. Good thing, too. Was tired from playing high notes the note before.
Thanks for tip trumpet joker.
I'am going start doing that to my mouthpieces
I always wanted to play a monette mp, if I can't get one of his trumpets
I can buy one of his mps'
And I know the feeling about those high notes.
If you can't get a screw rim, have a regular mp modified. When you find the mod you really like, pick up two or three spares in case you lose your main mp. Don't buy the spares until you are absolutely sure you like the mods first. Modifications can be very expensive depending on who does them. Bach had a mp handbook which allowed me to search for the mods I wanted.
Back in 1983 shortly after buying my Strad, I went to Bach's former chief repairman. His name was John "Pepe" Pettinato. He gave me my first screw rim (3C). Luckily, I got it right the first time. He gave me a break on the first mp, but a second one was more than I could afford. So, I had him modify two regular 3C's the same way. I put one in my bag and the other is at home in storage. I obviously use the 3C screw rim as my daily mp and a modified 3C as a spare in my bag.
Just my advice. Take it for what it is worth. :-)
Before I state my horn/mouthpiece combination, let me say that I DO NOT PLAY IN A SYMPHONY!!! So all of you orchestral people don't go postal when I say what I play on.
I play mostly in a large church (contemporary music) or I play gigs (outdoors, clubs, jazz clubs, etc) with a sizzling horn band that needs brightness, demands high notes constantly, all requiring a sizzling studio sound. I play Tower of Power lead trumpet parts 90% of the time and I personally find the Marcinkiewicz Gillette model (actually mine is a slight variant of that ) along with the Marcinkiewicz Concert hall designed Bobby Shew #1 mouthpiece to be my bread and butter combination. I have played on this combo so long that I can play all ranges and styles of music except when I do play in an orchestral environment at which time I simply replace my mouthpiece with a Schilke 16.
It works for me.

Deep Space Chronicle: A Chronology of Deep Space and Planetary Probes 1958-2000, Monographs in Aerospace History No. 24, by Asif A. Siddiqi
National Space Science Data Center, http://nssdc.gsfc.nasa.gov/
Mars Pathfinder was an ambitious mission to send a lander and a separate, remote-controlled rover to the surface of Mars, the second of NASA's Discovery missions.
Launched one month after Mars Global Surveyor, Pathfinder was sent on a slightly shorter seven-month trajectory designed for earlier arrival. The main spacecraft included a 10.6-kilogram, six-wheeled rover known as Sojourner capable of traveling 500 meters from the main ship at top speeds of 1 centimeter per second. The mission's primary goal was not only to demonstrate innovative, low-cost technologies, but also to return geological, soil, magnetic property, and atmospheric data.
After a seven-month traverse and four trajectory corrections (on 10 January, 3 February, 6 May, and 25 June 1997), Pathfinder arrived at Mars on 4 July 1997. The spacecraft entered the atmosphere and was then slowed by aerobraking, retrorockets, and a parachute before bouncing on the surface using cushioned landing bags that had deployed 8 seconds before impact.
Pathfinder landed at 16:56:55 UT on 4 July 1997 at 19.30° north latitude and 33.52° west longitude in Ares Vallis, about 19 kilometers southwest of the original target. Impact speed was about 10.5 meters per second; the spacecraft bounced several times before coming to a complete stop.
The next day, Pathfinder deployed the Sojourner rover on the Martian surface via landing ramps. Sojourner was the first wheeled vehicle to be used on any other planet of the solar system.
During its eighty-three-day mission, the rover covered hundreds of square meters, returned 550 photographs, and performed chemical analyses at sixteen different locations near the lander. The latter, meanwhile, transmitted more than 16,500 images and 8.5 million measurements of atmospheric pressure, temperature, and windspeed.
Data from the rover suggested that rocks at the landing site resembled terrestrial volcanic types with high silicon content, specifically a rock type known as andesite.
Although the planned lifetimes of Pathfinder and Sojourner were expected to be one month and one week, respectively, these times were exceeded by three and twelve times, respectively. Final contact with Pathfinder was at 10:23 UT on 27 September 1997. Although mission planners tried to reestablish contact for the next five months, the highly successful mission was officially declared terminated on 10 March 1998. After landing, Mars Pathfinder was renamed the Sagan Memorial Station after the late astronomer Carl Sagan.

How can I take photo when battery level is less than 20%? My Samsung Galaxy S always says "battery low" and then closes the camera application when I try to. Is there a way to get around this? Or is 19% not powerful enough to take a photograph (my camera has no flash).

Try downloading and using a third-camera app from the market. The restriction is apparently on the stock camera app, not on the hardware (the camera itself). I downloaded Retro Camera, and it is able to take a picture when my Galaxy S is on low battery. That might not be the app you want, so do a search on the market with the keyword "Camera".
I think I've found a solution. It's pretty simple - just try to hold the Menu button. The info about battery disappears and allows you to use the camera.
This is, unfortunately, not adjustable in the stock version of Android. If you root there are 3rd party versions that modify this low battery level.

Ongoing battles against Pepco's requests for more money will now have Montgomery County's full legal attention.
The county has dedicated an assistant county attorney to focus on utility issues, which brings the fight against Pepco's latest rate case in house.
County spokesman Patrick Lacefield said lawyer Lisa Brennan moved from the Office of Consumer Protection, where she dealt frequently with utility issues, to the Office of the County Attorney where utilities will now dominate her time.
In the past, Montgomery County used both outside legal counsel and its county attorneys to fight against Pepco's in proceedings before the Maryland Public Service Commission.
This year, the county decided it would bring its efforts in house, Lacefield said.
"I think that everyone is pretty clear that the county is staying on utilities to make sure that we have as safe and reliable service as we can," Brennan said.
"We have concluded we are going to be in this for the long term, not just one or two rate cases," Councilman Roger Berliner.
Not only is dedicating Brennan's time to utilities evidence that the county is committed to those issues, but it also should reduce costs to taxpayers, said Berliner (D-Dist. 1) of Bethesda.
Montgomery spent $238,398.75 last year on outside counsel to fight Pepco, which had asked to increase its base distribution rates by $68 million, according to information from County Attorney Marc P. Hansen, provided by Lacefield. Brennan's annual salary is $89,596, according to figures released by the county in December.
The county pushed against Pepco's last request, the bulk of which was denied in July.
Pepco has asked the PSC for another rate increase, this time totaling $60.8 million more in base distribution rates, or $7.13 per month from the average customer, as well as a three-year grid resiliency charge. Starting at 96 cents per month in 2014, the charge would increase annually to $1.70 a month in 2015 and $1.93 a month in 2016, and would pay to accelerate tree trimming, upgrade 12 more feeders a year and put six distribution feeders underground.
While she will deal with more than just Pepco, the rate case will be her major focus for the time being, Brennan said.
"I don't know if there is going to any other case that is pending at the Public Service Commission that is going to affect county residents quite so much," Brennan said.
