AkzoNobel to stop production of organic peroxides at Dutch site because of overcapacity, high costs
7:38 AM MDT | August 30, 2013 | Natasha Alperowicz
AkzoNobel today announced plans to phase out production of organic peroxides at its Deventer, Netherlands, site by the end of 2016. AkzoNobel is the global leading producer of organic peroxides. The site's current production activities will be moved to other existing facilities in Europe, North America, and China over the next three years. The stop to production will affect approximately 215 employees at the site. While AkzoNobel intends to phase out the production of chemicals there, the site's regional R&D and technology center will...

Enjoy your burrito.
I just got done with a brutal 12-man draft...7 people didn't show up so I was mired in autopick hell. I picked 2nd.
QB - Joe Flacco/Chad Henne
RB - Maurice Jones-Drew/Jamaal Charles/Matt Forte/Laurence Maroney
WR - DeSean Jackson/Michael Crabtree/Santana Moss/Terrell Owens
TE - John Carlson
K - Dan Carpenter
DEF/ST - Dallas
RB -Frank Gore is growing on me the more I read and see that this could be a huge year for him. I wouldn't take him over the top 3 but he is right there with Rice on my big board now. Expect some big plays and 10 to 12 TD's. Shonn Greene I don't like, just a gut feeling that he could be a semi bust this year fantasy wise. LT still has a nose for the goal line and on third downs is a much better receiver and has more experience picking up the blitz. Greene will have a few big games against the likes of the Bills and such but he might not get 1000 yards and 6 or 7 TD's is all I see. That said in a 16 teamer where you have a stud RB he isn't a bad RB2. Reggie Bush is under rated, he'll get enough touches to make him a viable bye week guy and spot starter. Slaton we shall see, he has the talent other then fumbling but Foster looks ready to lock onto that job.
WR - Individually I don't love any of you WR's other then maybe Ward for his consistency, but as a whole they are a decent willy veteran group. If either Colston or Smith can put up years like they had a few years ago and the other tosses in a few big games you could be in good shape. The problem I have with both of them if they can disappear in games as well. Manningham and Gaffney are decent bye week guys in a big league, I actually like what Gaffney has shown with Orton so far.
TE - I love Daniels, I admit a man crush...lol...he's practicing again but not in game shape from what I read yesterday, be prepared to maybe need a fill in for a few weeks.
I like your team in a league this big, your WR scare me a bit again that they can disappear but your solid at RB and you could have a top QB tandem after week 5. You should be a playoff contender for sure, Grade B+
10 man league, standard ESPN rules plus 0.5 PPR. 1 QB, 2 RB, 1 RB/WR, 2 WR, 1 TE, 1 K, 1 D/ST. I drafted 3rd in a snake draft.
QB: Philip Rivers, Matt Ryan
RB: Ray Rice, Ronnie Brown, Clinton Portis, Willis McGahee
WR: Roddy White, Hines Ward, Pierre Garcon, Robert Meachem, Vincent Jackson (grabbed LATE, I figured what the hell)
TE: Antonio Gates, Greg Olson
K: Jay Feely
D/ST: Ravens, Texans
From an 8 man IDP/PPR league me and some friends are doing with money on the line. We start a QB, a TE, 2 RB's, 2 WR's, a RB/WR, and a WR/TE. Also a K, 2 LB's, 2 DB's, and 2 DL. A tackle is 1 point, all other significant def stats (sacks, INT's, FF, etc.) are 2 points. KR/PR yards are 1 point/10 yards.
I had the 7th pick in the draft.
QB - Tom Brady, Joe Flacco
RB - Jamaal Charles, Lesean McCoy, Jonathan Stewart, Darren Sproles, Tim Hightower - Keep in mind this is a PPR league. I think McCoy is going to be a PPR stud. Charles and Hightower should rack up a lot of catches as well. Charles also offers some return yards.
WR - Andre Johnson, Randy Moss, Josh Cribbs, Hines Ward, Robert Meachem - I think this is the year Cribbs finally puts some good numbers offensively. Add that to the 1 point every 10 KR/PR yards, I think I have a real stud on my hands. Actually, I know I have a stud in my hands, afterall, he was the 5th best fantasy WR last year in IDP leagues. That gives me three top 5 WR's, not bad.
TE - Jermichael Finley, Kellen Winslow
K - Garrett Hartley - Trying to take him every league I get a chance too.
LB's - Barrett Ruud, Curtis Lofton, D'Qwell Jackson, Nick Barnett - 2nd best unit on the team. Got 3 guys who can all finish top 5 in tackles this year, and Barnett is no slouch either.
DB's - Yeremiah Bell, Eric Berry, Eric Weddle - Eric Berry = IDP stud, book it.
DL - Will Smith, Aaron Kampman, John Abraham - I think Aaron Kampman is prime for a great year going back to defensive end in a 4-3.
I think this may be my 2nd, possibly best team in FF this year out of the 5 I've done.
Edit - Just made my team even better by trading Devin Aromashodu for Darren Sproles, who was a top 10 RB last year in IDP leagues. Then dropped Laurence Maroney for Robert Meachem.
its a 10 team head-to-head league, drafted 17 players each in a snake draft
QB: Matt Ryan
RB: Ray Rice
RB: Ronnie Brown

The heat from the flames was almost unbearable, the lack of air circulation stifling. A surprisingly tall, young, shirtless man in flip-flops entered the room. Male or female, it was hard not to notice his abs, covered in sweat, and seemingly carved from stone. He deposited a shovel full of red-hot coals underneath one of the many large cooking pots, without a word, and left the room again.

Stumbling out of bed, I skipped the shower, brushed my teeth, and stepped outside into the cool darkness. Craning my head toward the night's sky, I was greeted with a scattering of white stars. It was a good sign. In a trip filled with early mornings, getting up at 3 AM to watch the sunrise over Mount Bromo in East Java was the earliest. We'd been warned to dress warmly, as temperatures can drop close to freezing, but I didn't even find a hat...

Friday, September 21, 2001Johnson City, Tenn.-- The East Tennessee State women's soccer team (1-2-1) were defeated by the Georgia Southern Eagles (3-3) at the Liberty Bell Soccer Complex 2-3 in overtime. The Buccaneers were off to a fast start as senior forward Kristin Redfern scores the first goal just two minutes into the game. Redfern would not stop there. The Alexandria, Va. native scores again off a header at the 16:52 mark. After that, neither team could quite get the ball in the goal until after the half. Georgia Southern kept working on the Bucs until their break came. A penalty kick at the 73rd minute by senior Andrea Pfeiffer got the Eagles back into the game. At literally the last minute, Geogia Southern's Jessie Fream is assisted by Jackie Kinsey and Stephanie Stein to score the tying goal. The Eagles did have a scare when goalkeeper Kari Gast went out of the game with an ankle injury with five minutes left in regulation. No word on how serious that injury could be. The Eagles wasted no time with Kinsey scoring the winning goal three minutes into the sudden victory overtime period. ETSU had some outstanding performances in the game. Redfern had four shots on goal and scored the only two goals for the Bucs. Senior Lisa Gallagher shot the ball six times, four were on goal and credited with an assist. Goalkeeper Heather Sanden faced 25 shots, had 10 saves, played all 93 minutes. The ETSU soccer team will continue conference play by hosting the College of Charleston Cougars Sunday, Sept. 23 at 2:00 p.m. at the Liberty Bell Soccer Complex.

Treatment of Behavioral Symptoms: When to Consider Antipsychotic Medications in LBD - Page 6
Answers to Frequently Asked Questions
It seems that my mother's hallucinations are worse when she has not slept well. What can I do?
It is not your imagination. Lack of sleep may increase confusion and behavioral problems in people with LBD. Sleep problems including sleep apnea, restless leg syndrome and REM sleep behavior disorder are common in LBD. These sleep problems can keep the person with LBD and his or her caregiver from getting sleep.
Often, these sleep problems can be improved without medications. Increasing daytime activities and avoiding naps (one benefit of senior activity centers) can promote better sleep. In addition, people with dementia should not consume alcohol, caffeine, chocolate or coffee late in the day. Some over-the-counter medications can also affect sleep, these should be reviewed with your mother's physician.
If these non-medication interventions fail to work you may want to ask your mother's physician about what can be done to treat her sleep problems. The doctor may recommend a prescription medication to help your mother sleep at night.
My husband's doctor wants him to start taking a drug called memantine. Will this affect his behavioral symptoms?
Memantine (brand name Namenda) acts by blocking a brain chemical called glutamate, which appears to be overactive in the brains of people with dementia. By blocking the glutamate, memantine may help to improve cognitive function. Memantine has a slightly different method of action than cholinesterase inhibitors, so both medications can be used at the same time.
Memantine was approved for use in the United States in 2003 and there have several studies reporting its use in people with LBD. The most recent research shows memantine may be beneficial to some people with LBD, particularly for problematic behaviors. If your husband is not taking a cholinesterase inhibitor, you should try these medications first. If he is already on a cholinesterase inhibitor, your husband's physician may suggest a trial of mematine. As with all new medications, you will need to monitor your husband closely and notify his physician if behavioral symptoms worsen.
During a respite stay at a local nursing facility, my wife was given diazepam to calm her down and help her sleep. When I returned she was in terrible shape – alternating between being highly agitated and almost unresponsive. What happened?
Like many medications, benzodiazepines like diazepam (brand name Valium) affect people with LBD differently than younger people without dementia. Benzodiazepines are sedating, but someone with LBD may actually experience this 'paradoxical effect' of alternating sedation and agitation.
Before you schedule another respite stay for your wife, try to find an assisted living or nursing facility that specializes in dementia care. Also, make sure that the physician who normally cares for your wife's LBD is in contact with the medical director of the respite facility. He or she can provide guidance to the facility staff on dealing with your wife's sleep difficulties and behavioral problems.

Past Fraser Institute interns have gone on to exciting careers in media, public policy, politics, academia and law, to name just a few. All have benefited from the rigorous approach to research that The Fraser Institute follows.
Past interns have said:
This is my second summer working at the Fraser Institute. These internships are a great opportunity for university students to do leading edge research with the guidance of articulate and intelligent policy analysts. I think the Fraser Institute internship program is among the top in Canada!- Mathew Curtis, Political Science and Economics, University of Toronto
This is by far the most intellectually stimulating internship I have ever had.- Will Lymer, Political Science, Simon Fraser University
This has been a remarkable experience. The internship gave me the opportunity to use the skills I had learned in university and apply them to real policy issues.- Chris Schafer, Political Science, Wilfrid Laurier University
I would strongly recommend a Fraser Institute internship to any hard-working individual who's (dissatisfied with the status quo and) passionate about moving the goalposts of the current and future debate about Canadian public policy. They will find this to be an unparalleled opportunity to further both their intellectual development and to lay the foundation of their future career path, whatever that may be.- Ian Vaculik, M.A., International Relations and History, University of Toronto
The process of working closely with a senior policy analyst has provided me with invaluable experience in the public policy research arena.- Miriam Bixby, Economics, University of Toronto
Working at The Fraser Institute was an immensely useful experience. It was both educational and stimulating to work in such an environment.- Andrew Zur, Law, University of Toronto

Kenzo Fall 2012
Nothing about Sunday's Kenzo show was easy. The location—the cool, colorful and very designed university building reachable only via a few connecting one-way streets—wasn't easy to get to (and the traffic-stifling rain, although out of anyone's control, didn't help). The coordination and timing of almost 50 models navigating the four floors of the building—no way was that easy. And flying a team from New York's Magnolia Bakery to Paris just so they could bake delightful, lavender-frosted cupcakes for the audience? And yet all of this is exactly what made the show feel so wonderfully authentic to creative directors Humberto Leon and Carol Lim, two people who never seem to let the limits of reality get in the way of creativity.
The show they staged, one of considerably higher production value than last season's memorable, but relatively low-key presentation, was their second since taking over the house last summer. The models walked through the hallways and down the escalators in twos, fours, and by themselves, grouped by look or theme, and boy were there a lot of themes and looks. Karlie Kloss opened, her signature, stallion stride lending a certain unearthly sensuality to a tweed skirt and matching jacket with oversize lapels, and a logo sweatshirt. More tweed looks followed, a mix of tomboy (straight cropped pants, fitted sweaters) and girly (short-sleeved tops with kicky, abbreviated skirts), then came prints ranging from a sort of old-school Italian tablecloth grapevine to more signature geometric patterns, like the green-and-white crosshatch print of a fitted, double-breasted coat with pants in a contrasting green and red. Stripes were worn with diamond prints, worn with crosshatch-weave prints. The number of combinations was matched only by the spectrum of colors (if you can imagine it, it was in here) and different ways to think about dressing. Do you do the youthful, leggy look with a lug-sole, neon-accented loafer, or stricter pants with a voluminous, cocoon-type jacket? Or maybe it's about a high-waisted, long column skirt with a tucked-in sweatshirt and tread-sole oxford with metallic detail. No matter what you choose, the truth was there were a lot of clothes to choose from. The pieces that felt most tied to the Kenzo DNA were looks like a red velvet fitted pantsuit with military-style hats and the baseball jackets in a mix of wool with colorful, chunky-knit sleeves. Much of the rest of it—that ingenue silhouette, sweatshirt dressing, full skirts, and flirty peplums—felt particular to Lim and Leon who, like the house's founder, Kenzo Takada, have a preternatural and enviable knack for connecting with a generation of fun and stylish downtown kids.
That's the thing about these two visionaries. In everything they do, they are always abosolutely, authentically themselves.

South Granville Landmark celebrates 100 years
Holy Trinity Anglican Church Centennial
The Chalmers' Building at the southwest corner of 12th Avenue and Hemlock (1440 West 12th Ave.) also known as Holy Trinity Anglican Church is celebrating 100 years as a landmark in the South Granville neighbourhood.
Pictured: Chalmers Presbyterian Church [at 2801 Hemlock Street] Circa 1923. Vancouver Archives, CVA 99-3495. Photo by Stuart Thomson
It was back in October 1911, that a group of Fairview Presbyterians laid the cornerstone for Chalmers Presbyterian (later United) Church. In 1926 it became Chalmers United Church and served that congregation until 1991, when it was acquired by Holy Trinity Anglican Church to serve the growing needs of its congregation.
This impressive Neo-Classical church was built in response to the rapid pre-war expansion of Fairview and Shaughnessy. The design is highlighted by pediments and massive columns, a dome centred at the crossing, extensive use of stained glass, fine brickwork and pre-cast concrete ornamentation.
From the very beginning, the building was designed to be what it remains – a community centre where people can not only gather for worship, but much more besides. The church now provides a home for the South Granville Seniors Centre and the 126 seat Pacific Theatre. Holy Trinity is a vital part of our community and we join with them in celebrating this beautiful landmark.
From October 12th to 16th, 2011 the Holy Trinity community invites you to come mark this centennial with a week of special events and activities. The indoor swimming pool may be long gone, but there are many scheduled activities to enjoy. […]

CORNING — Marquette, Neb.'s Kyle Berck showed he hasn't forgotten how to wheel a late model around the half mile at Adams County Speedway.
Berck started eighth in the 25-lap late model feature and used the bottom of the track to work his way to the front and claim the $2000 winner's prize and extend his point lead in the SLMR racing series.
Adams County regulars Jason O'Brien and JC Wyman finished right behind Berck with Travis Dickes and Bill Leighton Jr. rounding out the top five. Justin Zeitner paced the first half of the race before Leighton powered by using the very top of the race track to his advantage.
But on lap 19 Leighton got just a bit too high in turn two, slipping off the track and letting Berck take control. The race was slowed by only one caution flag on an evening absolutely perfect for dirt track racing.
Hobby stocks
Jeremy Purdy extended his domination of the Chat Mobility hobby stocks collecting win number six in 12 starts on the season. Purdy, runner up last week, started 10th in a field of 22. By lap number six Purdy had the lead and went on to take the checkers.
Tom Myers followed in second, Andy Davison third, Kurt Hansen fourth, and David Weeda fifth. The win extended Purdy's point lead in the class to 65 points over second place Davison with only three point nights left in the season.
B-mod driver Tony Rost lives just 25 miles from a NASCAR sanctioned track in McCool, Neb., but the last two weeks he's made the 160 mile haul to Corning in a search for a big field of cars. For two weeks in a row it's been worth his while taking home the winner's points, check, and trophy.
Stanton's Josh Sink followed in second with Shawn Kralik hanging onto third against a hard charging Jon Plowman. Jerod Weston finished fifth. Plowman's point lead in the Stalker Chevrolet b-mods stands at 80 points over second place Weston. With the track championship nearly in hand it's the national point picture on the mind of both Plowman and Rost.
When 16 Northland Oil pro-stocks take the green flag at ACS you know the racing is going to be good. Two wide, three wide, and four wide is common place for these guys, and this week was no exception.
This week it was Brad Derry's 37d machine out front for the win. Derry started outside row two and lead all but the first two laps of the eighteen lap feature. Tony Hardisty started back in row six and ran out of laps before he could catch Derry. Lenox's Jake Christensen had his best run of the season coming in third, followed by Joe Zadina and Jason Rold.
Hardisty's four wins on the season has built up a 46-point lead over Greg Miller and his two wins. Derry's win vaulted him up two positions to third in the point chase.
Only 11 Poet Biorefining modifieds made the call for their 18-lap feature and only one caution flag slowed them down during the race. Keven Parman lead the field from wire to wire to get his second win in as many weeks. Jeff Wiggins, Brian Foote, and Eric Hanna battled for second place with Foote eventually coming out on top followed by Hanna, Wiggins, and Jesse Dennis in fifth.
Foote's second place finish left him just five points behind the division leading Jesse Dennis. Todd Van Eaton sits 32 points behind the leader in third.
King of the Hill
It was an all Corning final in the pro-stock King of the Hill final. Joe Zadina and Tony Hardisty went head to head for two laps to determine the crown. Zadina brought the crowd to their feet when he got his car up on two wheels in turn two, barely escaping a roll-over. Hardisty used Zadina's misfortune to go on and capture the crown.
This Week
Just three weeks remain in the 2013 NASCAR Whelen All-American Racing Series and the points battles are heating up in some classes.
Only five points separate the top two in the modifieds, and late model leader Jason O'Brien is just 25 points ahead of Chris Spieker and JC Wyman who are tied for second.
Aug. 24 will have all five NASCAR classes in action along with the Poet Biorefining modified King of the Hill races to end the evening.

Great service and fast shipping as always from Crutchfield. However, the camera itself is a bit disappointing. Photography is a hobby of mine, and this was purchased just to take around for simple shots when I didn't feel like taking my SLR. I have experimented with nearly all modes at this point and have not been impressed. There seems to be a inconsistency with photos taken on the same mode. Some pics will turn out great, and others not so great. To be completely honest I don't see any significant difference inpics with this camera and those snapped with my iphone. I would be hesitant to recommend this to a friend, unless they are buying it as a first camera for their child. Pros: Good price, Fast shipping. Cons: Cheap feel, Inconsistent picture quality, flash really washes out faces at times...even from distances of greater than 5 feet. 7 out of 9 people found this helpful Was this review helpful?

Scene Mode: You can manually or automatically select a scene mode with settings optimized for the shooting situation: Portrait, Landscape, Sports, Night Portrait, Party/Indoor, Beach, Snow, Sunset, Dusk/Dawn, Night Landscape, Close Up, Food, Museum, Fireworks Show, Black & White Copy, Backlighting, Panorama Assist, and Pet Portrait.Smart Portrait: Using face priority to recognize human faces, the shutter is automatically released when a smile is detected. Continuous Shooting: You can set the camera to take one picture at a time or multiple images by selecting one of the following options: Single: The camera records one picture each time the shutter release button is pressed. Continuous: While the shutter-release button is held down, up to 4 pictures are taken at a rate of about 1.2 frames per second (fps) when image mode is set to 16M (4608 x 3456). Best Shot Selector: The BSS is recommended for situations in which inadvertent camera movement can produce blurred pictures, or when parts of the image are prone to under- or over-exposure. When BSS is on, the camera takes shots while the shutter-release button is pressed, to a maximum of ten. The images are compared and the sharpest picture is saved to the internal memory or memory card. Multi-Shot 16: Each time the shutter release button is pressed, the camera takes 16 consecutive "thumbnail" images at a rate of about 30 frames per second, and arranges them into a single 5M (2560 x 1920) image. Self-timer: The camera is equipped with a 10 second timer for self-portraits. Focus Area Selection: You can select between the following Focus Area Selection methods to determine where the camera focuses: Face Detection: When the camera recognizes a face (front view only), the camera will focus on the face automatically. The camera can recognize up to 12 faces depending on shooting and exposure mode. Center: The camera focuses on the subject in the center of the frame. Color Options: You can shoot still images with several color options: Standard color, Vivid color, Black-and-white, Sepia, and Cyanotype. Macro Mode: Macro mode is used for taking pictures of objects as close as 0.4". The flash may be unable to light entire subject at distances of less than 1 feet 8 inches.

AF-Assist Illuminator: If lighting is poor, the AF-assist illuminator may light to assist the focus operation when the shutter-release button is pressed halfway. The illuminator has a range of about 6'-2" at the maximum wide-angle position and 3' 7" at the maximum telephoto position. You can turn this function on or off. Blink Warning Function: The Blink Warning function is available when you are shooting in Easy Auto, Portrait, or Night Portrait mode. When the camera detects that one or more human subjects may have blinked, the blink warning screen is displayed. The subject is framed by a yellow border, allowing you to check the picture and decide whether or not to take another picture. Exposure Compensation: You can alter the exposure from the value suggested by the camera, making pictures brighter or darker. You can adjust the exposure from -2.0 to +2.0 EV in 1/3 steps. ISO Settings: Sensitivity is the measure of how quickly the camera reacts to light. The higher the sensitivity, the less light needed to make an exposure. The camera features automatic settings at 80, 100, 200, 400, 800, and 1600. White Balance: You can set the White Balance to Auto, Daylight, Incandescent, Fluorescent, Cloudy, or Flash.

While playing back an image, you can select the D-Lighting function, apply it, and save the corrected image without harming the properly exposed areas of the image.

Product reviews from the Crutchfield Labs Small and simple Written by Ralph Graves, Staff Writer - Creative, on 3/6/2012 1:59:00 PM For a good, basic, point-and-shoot camera, I think the Coolpix L26 is a great choice. It has a nice, big viewscreen, and a navigation menu that's easy to figure out even without a manual. In addition to the basic settings, such as auto mode, smart portrait, and easy auto mode, the camera offers a variety of "portrait" settings. So you can get the best shot of food, pets, fireworks, and more. Or have the camera set for the best shots of things in a museum, on the beach, in the snow, and so on. What I really liked was that all of those settings were quickly available with a press of the "scene" button. So if something's happening, within seconds I can have the camera set the exposure properly to capture the action. What are the Labs? Sorry, the Nikon Coolpix L26 is no longer available.

Thursday, June 03, 2004JOHNSON CITY, Tenn. (June 3, 2004) - The 2004 CoSIDA University Division Women's Track & Field/Cross Country Academic All-District IV teams were announced today. Senior Kristin Truman (Johnson City, Tenn.) received second team honors based on her academic and athletic performances. Academically, she finished her final year as a student-athlete at ETSU graduating with a degree in Biology and compiling a cumulative GPA of 3.899 during her career. The SoCon also recognized Truman by naming her to the TIAA-CREF Academic All-Southern Conference Team for the indoor season. Athletically, Truman placed fifth in the long jump at the Appalachian Invitational with a season best mark of 5.49m during the indoor season. She then went on at the Southern Conference Indoor Championships to place fourth in the triple jump (11.92m) and earned all-conference honors with her second-place finish in the pentathlon (3415 total points). She then carried her success into the outdoor season in which she notched an NCAA Regional Qualifying mark in the triple jump of 12.26m. That performance, which placed her third overall at the Vanderbilt Invitational meet, also helped her to be tabbed as the women's track and field athlete of the week. At mideast regionals, Truman recorded her second best jump in the triple jump of 12.18m. To be nominated for the Academic All-America team, a student-athlete must be at least a sophomore starter or significant reserve on her team with a 3.20 cumulative grade point average. The District IV team is compiled from NCAA Division I women's track & field and cross country teams from Alabama, Kentucky, Michigan, Ohio and Tennessee. Members of the first team go on to represent District IV on the Academic All-America ballot. The CoSIDA Academic All-District Team is a part of the CoSIDA Academic All-America program. First team selections will appear on the national ballot for the CoSIDA Academic All-America Women's Track & Field/Cross Country team to be announced June 24.

text: One of the best forwards and most lethal perimeter shooters in all of Europe, Teletovic is coming off a rookie NBA season that turned into new territory for him. A lot was different across the Atlantic, where big minutes were rare and far between for one of Europe's top clutch performers. After such a season, Teletovic is eager more than ever to be back in his old role with the national team where he carries a heavy load on his shoulders. Dangerous when left open, or with a hand right in his face, Teletovic destroys opponents with a devastating range. He is far from a one-dimensional player however, as he is big and physical to dominate around the basket, and athletic to drive through the paint for a big dunk. Last summer in the Qualification Round he hurt opposing defences with an average of 24.3 points, and this time around brings experience of previous EuroBasket action, having played in the 2005 and 2011 tournaments. Arriving fresh and highly motivated, Teletovic is set to be the player Bosnia and Herzegovina expects and needs to take them to unprecedented heights.

Say hello to Team Old Boy from China
Posted 15 November 2012 - 12:51 PM
From left to right: 寒剑 (Rogue) - Lareina (Shaman) - 天堂之声 (Warlock)
Today I talked with Team Old Boy, the Chinese long-time big fishs playing RLS. They do not speak English so I had a translator for the questions.
The name "Team Old Boy" is derived from their long streak as one of leading Chinese arena teams and not based on the Korean movie. When talking about Korea - the rivalry is strong and these guys have a huge respect for the Korean players. Korea is the Asian E-Sport Mekka and so the gigantic China is the underdog in WoW.
In China the MMR exploit was made public earlier than in EU and US and so they had a hard time finding decent opponents for training. They followed streams, videos and the armory of the opposing teams in order to prepare.
Without experience against the players from Europe, US and Korea the Chinese teams are the clear underdogs. First impression was that they do not play on the level we are used from tournament players like Snutz or Talbadar. But remember last BlizzCon when a team no one had on the list took it all.
Good luck and have fun Team Old Boy. I wish you the best. May a team with a rogue defend their honor.

No, not all will be streamed. There are two commentator teams. Conrad/Diziet and Reckful/Vhell. You can see the streamed matches here: http://us.battle.net/bwc/en/schedule/
After the round robin is finished all matches will be played. Streaming 90 matches would simply be impossible as five caster teams would be needed and five streams as well.

Faculty Profiles
David Feldman
Professor of Physics and Mathematics
Where did you go to school?
Please see my Curriculum Vitae.
What do you teach?
Physics and Mathematics
Why do you teach at COA?
I like the interdisciplinarity. COA students are a fun and inspiring group to work with.
How long have you been part of the COA community? What has changed?
Since September 1998. Not that much has changed, actually. We have many more international students, and a few more buildings, and some spiffy dorms. But what's more interesting is what hasn't changed. We still have smart, motivated, independent-minded students.
Which project thrills you most to assign and witness?
I don't know. I assign a lot of homework and then try and provide a lot of help. It's satisfying to watch students work hard, week after week, enjoy the challenge, and learn a lot. Final projects in Chaos and Fractals are always very interesting. Students do a zany assortment of things and I'm very often pleasantly surprised and amused by what they come up with.
If your students were fruit, you'd have a class full of ...
What is the most significant challenge the current generation of college students faces?
There are too many challenges to pick just one. The climate change thing is going to be a disaster. But it will mostly be the poor of the world who bear the worst consequences, not people who are lucky enough to go to college.
Tell us about your favorite tree on campus.
I guess the Copper Beech. I like trees, but not so much that I have clear favorites.
Where are your roots?
Born and raised in NYC. Manhattan. I also feel like I have some roots in Northern California.
In which media do you most enjoy working? Why?
Computer programming is great. So are mechanical pencils. With soft but not too-soft lead.
Where do you like to do your work?
My office on campus.
Beyond teaching at COA, which projects or passions energize you?
I like cooking. I like listening to music a lot. I enjoy good beer. I like watching hockey. I like playing ultimate Frisbee. I like hanging out with my three cats.
Which books do you keep on your desk, in your pocket, on your nightstand?
I have a lot of books on my desk. Too many to list.
What can't you live without?
Coffee. Music. Food. Water.
What brings you joy?
The usual stuff. Friends, family.
What role should rebellion or revolution play in contemporary societies?
Depends on the society. Hard to generalize.
What does 'green' mean to you?
Electromagnetic radiation with wavelengths between 495 and 570 nm. Politically, I'm much more red than green.

And what did the Democrats get for selling out?
The New York Times reports: Underscoring the political stakes involved, White House spokesman Tony Snow said today that President Bush will emphasize Democratic opposition to the bill in campaign appearances. "He'll be citing some of the comments that members of the Democratic leadership have made in recent days about what they think is necessary for winning the war on terror," Mr. Snow told reporters en route to a fundraiser in Alabama, according to a transcript provided by the White House. After the bill passes, the President plans to paint them as soft on terrorism. What a spineless, worthless lot the Democrats in the Senate are. They deserve every lost Senate and House seat that comes from this.
Underscoring the political stakes involved, White House spokesman Tony Snow said today that President Bush will emphasize Democratic opposition to the bill in campaign appearances.
"He'll be citing some of the comments that members of the Democratic leadership have made in recent days about what they think is necessary for winning the war on terror," Mr. Snow told reporters en route to a fundraiser in Alabama, according to a transcript provided by the White House.
After the bill passes, the President plans to paint them as soft on terrorism.
What a spineless, worthless lot the Democrats in the Senate are. They deserve every lost Senate and House seat that comes from this.
When will Democrats understand that the GOP will swiftboat them no matter what they do? The swiftboating will be no worse if they stand up for principle. Indeed, it'll be less effective, because they'll be able to point to strong principles and solid accomplishments.
If the Democrats still want electoral success (about which I have some doubts), they need to realize that the path to it runs through the Valley of Assertiveness, not through the Valley of the Fear of Swiftboating.
JB - not that it will happen, but a friend of mine just visited senator kennedy's office. this is what he was told:
"I was just at Sen. Kennedy's office. I'll report more fully (I've got to run right now), but there's one question that's come up here a few times that I got answered. A filibuster is still procedurally possible. The "unaninmous consent decree" does not rule it out.
Politically possible is a different question."
They deserve every lost Senate and House seat that comes from this.
Amen. I hope they lose, lose big, and we see some new leadership.
But it won't happen.
Because if they DO lose big, they'll decide it's because they voted AGAINST the torture bill.
The Democrats: "Republicans Lite."
Further, any senator can withdraw unanimous consent, grinding procedure to a halt. Is any brave enough?
Yes, sir, perhaps they do lack spines and deserve defeat. But does the country deserve the cost of their lack and loss? And do we help *fix* this by our cavailing at their cowardice, in lieu of working to bolster their courage?
The Democrats have the same problem now that the Republicans had for so many years when they were the minority party. They don't actually stand for anything.
It's not enough to sit back and naysay the president when he makes bad decisions (and he does make plenty). You eventually have to come up with an acceptable alternative. That's where the party comes up short. What's their response to a bad situation in Iraq? The only serious one they're putting forth is withdrawal, which is even more unpopular with the public than Bush's flawed strategy. If they want to batter the president on Iraq, find a better way to fight the war. Hijack Bush's issue by finding a way to win. Otherwise, there's no reason to for people to vote for the Democrats over Republicans...because the Dems won't make things any better.
What a spineless, worthless lot the Democrats in the Senate are. They deserve every lost Senate and House seat that comes from this.
But we don't.
It's truly sad that Alexander Hamilton had more wisdom at age 25 than at least some of the Dems in the Senate at twice that age. From a letter of September 3, 1780:
"The manner in which a thing is done has more influence than is commonly imagined. Men are governed by opinion; this opinion is as much influenced by appearances as by realities; if a Government appears to be confident of its own powers, it is the surest way to inspire the same confidence in others; if it is diffident, it may be certain, there will be a still greater diffidence in others, and that its authority will not only be distrusted, controverted, but contemned."
According to posts on Glenn Greenwald's site, the Democrats were two votes short of a filibuster. That means 6 Dem Senators bailed out (counting Jeffords as a Dem for this purpose). It's those individuals, not the party as a whole, who should be the targets of our anger.
The Dems who will vote for this legislation either :::gasp::: actually support it or their constituents do.
Nearly every Dem not in a safe district or state has or will vote for it. Such a vote innoculates them personally from most of the fallout from their party's majority vote against it.
The GOP can remind voters that the rest of the Dem Party voted against the bill because they favor granting increased rights to terrorists and that many of these people will be in charge if the Dems take over Congress, but that will mostly motivate the Elephant base rather than keep others from voting for Dems.
One of the most amazing things about the rollover by the Democrats on the torture issue is that can't seem to find their backbones even when they are dealing with a President whose current approval rating is running at 37%.
Oy, Oy.
If the 6 Dems who wouldn't filibuster are stripped of their committee chairs and invited to run on the Republican ticket next time around, that would change my mind about the Democratic Party.
Ain't holding my breath, though.
As I said a few posts down.
they are going to distort what they say and cudgel them with it no matter what they say or do. Therefore, stop trying to tailor what you say and do based on the fear that it will be distorted and used against you.
Wow. That was hard to predict.
>because they favor granting increased rights to terrorists
Do you know the difference between a suspect and a terrorist? Do you know the difference between being charged with a crime, based on nothing but executive say-so, and a finding of guilt in a court of law? Anyway, we already know the answers to those questions...
porter29 said...
>because they favor granting increased rights to terrorists
Do you know the difference between a suspect and a terrorist?
Yes. I know, as do the vast majority of the American people, that foreign enemy combatants are not civilian criminal suspects.
Why do you think that the GOP is pushing this so hard before the election and every Dem in anything approaching a Red or Purple state is voting for the bill?
Do you know the difference between being charged with a crime, based on nothing but executive say-so...
My heavens, our soldiers are killing and capturing the enemy in Afghanistan and Iraq on nothing more than "Executive say so." If our military can kill the enemy, exactly why again can't they try them?
War is not some pie in the sky legal due process exercise. Rather, its entire objective is to kill the enemy and break his property in the most expeditious manner until the enemy surrenders or there are no more enemy left.
This bill is a gift to the enemy.
The ultimate issue, however, is not what the Democrats deserve, but rather what the country needs.
The Democrats may deserve to be thrown out, but in my view, the United States, at least as it has been known for the last century, simply cannot survive unchecked Republican domination for much longer.
If our military can kill the enemy, exactly why again can't they try them?
Bart, are you stupid, or do you think we're stupid?
I'm trying to figure out whether to feel pity or offense.
"If we can shoot the enemy on a battlefield, why can't we shoot them after we take them prisoner?" -- makes as much sense.
The Democrats deserve to lose every single race.
The Republicans deserve to have a Democrat take office, declare them all enemy combatants, ship them off to Guantanamo, and torture them.
We the people certainly do not deserve either.
Depressing days.
See a tongue-in-cheek visual of the Grand Opening of "Tortureland"...here:
>>that foreign enemy combatants
And who is an "enemy combatant?" What standards should be used when designating individuals enemy combatants? Presidential whim? And why are you using the term "foreign?" Anyone (American citizen or not) can be declared an enemy combatant, disappeared, and tortured based on nothing more than presidential say-so. That is the definition of tyranny.
All of your other fallacies flow from this: believe it or not, just because Bush says you are a terrorist doesn't mean you actually are one.
By agreeing to skip cloture, the Democrats 1) demonstrated their respect for majority rule and 2) expediting passing a bill that history will call "President Bush's Bill."
My issue is with Congress punting public policy issues to the executive or the courts. Makes sense for them to do it. The public is polarized and incapable of carrying on reasoned debate.
And who is an "enemy combatant?" What standards should be used when designating individuals enemy combatants? Presidential whim? And why are you using the term "foreign?" Anyone (American citizen or not) can be declared an enemy combatant, disappeared, and tortured based on nothing more than presidential say-so. That is the definition of tyranny.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but doesn't the present bill retain habeas corpus rights for Americans?
"What a spineless, worthless lot the Democrats in the Senate are."
"The Democrats" in the House and Senate can't be lumped together on this one... although nearly all "the Republicans" can be.
34 House Democrats voted for torture and against habeas corpus; another 7 didn't vote; but 160 voted to oppose this evil bill, despite Bush's accusations of appeasement -- and these holdouts deserve our continued support. (7 Republicans and 1 Independent joined them in holding out.)
Likewise, 12 Senate Democrats voted for the torture bill, but 32 voted against (along with Independent Jeffords and one lone Republican, RI's Chafee).
Remember which of your elected officials voted which way, especially at the next primary.
House Roll Call. Senate Roll Call.
Meawhile, let's get the majority control out of Republicans' hands this election.
"... doesn't the present bill retain habeas corpus rights for Americans?"
Nephtuli, if you're held prisoner, how can you object that you're being held wrongly or denied rights such as due process? By filing a habeas corpus.
If you can't file one, you cannot have any right whatsoever enforced: in other words, you have NO enforceable rights.
If your captors simply contend you're not an American, how could you prove otherwise?
Now you can't file a habeas corpus to assert that you're entitled to file a habeas corpus.
What they've just done is lock the only key to the safe inside the safe.
Bart: War is not some pie in the sky legal due process exercise.
First, our unprovoked invasions and occupations of the sovereign nations of Afghanistan and Iraq notwithstanding, the "war" on terror is not a war, which means your point, above, misses the mark entirely.
Second, and more damning, is that as an attorney one of your responsibilities is to look at all sides of a piece of legislation or a decision to see not only how it can achieve its stated objective but how it can be turned to other ends; the fear of unforeseen ramifications is the heart and soul of stare decisis. Even if you subscribe, and we know you do, to the "war on terror" fallacy, nonetheless you have a duty to vet the laws developed in its pursuit to ensure that they have no dangerous ramifications.
You not only fail that duty, you continually speak against those who would meet this duty head on. Stipulate that these laws, AUMF, H.R. 3162 (the so-called "patriot" act), the current habeas buster, stipulate they all can be of service in catching the bad guys (sorry, "pursuing the 'war' on 'terror'".) Each and every one of these pieces of legislation creates gaping holes in the system of rights and liberties and checks and balances that are of the class of inflexible principles alluded to in your Lincoln quote. But maybe you only chose that quote cynically, with an eye to Lincoln's flexibility?
Anderson;Post a Comment
"If we can shoot the enemy on a battlefield, why can't we shoot them after we take them prisoner?"
That makes pefect sense. Explain to me why we can't? Why is it OK to kill people at a distance only?

Children and Burns
According to the latest data available from the National SAFE KIDS Campaign and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), consider the following statistics:
Kitchen injury from tipping scalding liquids.
Bathtub scalds often associated with lack of supervision or child abuse. Greatest number of pediatric burn patients are infants and toddlers younger than 3 years of age burned by scalding liquids.
Nutritional needs for a child who has been burned:
A child who has been burned needs a diet higher in calories and proteins to help him/her heal and grow. Your child may have an intravenous (IV) for extra fluids when he/she first comes to the hospital. When your child is more alert and is feeling better, he/she can start to eat.
Most children do not eat as well when they are feeling sick or when they are in the hospital. There are many ways parents can help encourage their to children eat, including the following:
What foods should I give my child?
Give your child a variety of foods that have good nutrients to help the skin heal. Vitamins A and C are important vitamins for the skin. Some foods that have Vitamin A and C are oranges, grapefruits, tomatoes, strawberries, broccoli, and carrots. Many enriched cereals also contain vitamins. Foods that contain protein such as meat, fish, eggs, peanut butter, chicken, and milk are also important to skin healing.
Consult the child's dietitian for diet and nutritional information.

Big Think is a global forum connecting people and ideas. It may be a cliché to say that knowledge is power, but that doesn't make the statement any less true. We know that there are just 24 hours in a day, that you are bombarded with information, and that the bombardment will only escalate. We believe that not all information is equal. We believe that expertise is invaluable and should be shared. If you had a heart problem and could afford the counsel of the world's leading cardiologists, you would seek their advice. If you owned a business and wanted to expand into China or Russia, you'd want to hear from people who had already done that. At Big Think, we put you in contact with the ideas of very smart people. We do not believe that experts have all the answers. On many subjects deep thinkers disagree. We do believe that we will all make better decisions in our personal and professional lives if our thinking is informed by expert opinion.

Everyone can give back to College of the Atlantic.
Alumni give their time, expertise, and money so that students can have great professors, a healthy and inspiring campus, and the kind of education they can look back on with pride.
There are several opportunities for those alumni who would like to give back to COA through volunteering. By giving your time as an Admission Volunteer or as an Alumni Mentor, you will be ensuring that students at COA continue to be thinkers, doers, and changers of the world.
Be a Mentor
Mentors are alumni wanting to be a resource for COA students and fellow alumni. Your role as a mentor may be answering questions about your work, offering employment to a recent graduate, or housing an intern who volunteers in your area. Your knowledge, skills, experiences, and insights are invaluable to other COA Human Ecologists who are making decisions about their future.
If you are interested in playing a more active role in networking with COA, contact Jill Barlow-Kelley, director of internships and career services (firstname.lastname@example.com, 207-801-5633).
Be An Admission Volunteer
Prospective students gain a deeper understanding of a COA education when they can connect with someone who has experienced it firsthand. Alumni Admission Volunteers assist the Office of Admission in attracting bright, creative, passionate students. If you are interested in representing COA at college fairs, interviewing prosepctive students, or speaking with parents of applications, please contact Andrew Moulton '04, admission counselor and alumni admission volunteer coordinator (email@example.com, 207-801-5644).
