From the title, you can probably guess that this article is about fly fishing in Cuba. Cuba is an amazing place and its fly fishing is definitely one of the reasons why.
To be honest I only fished two days in Cuba. And one of those days wasn't even a good one. Nevertheless, from what I saw, I would recommend fishing in Cuba to anyone…
A quick web search will reveal that most Cuban flats fishing are controlled by an Italian outfit named Avalon. Any monopoly has drawbacks but in this case I think it has been very healthy in preserving the fishery and the environment.
Avalon has fishing operations throughout Cuba, including Cayo Largo, a beautiful island south of the mainland with a handful of all–inclusive resorts. So when my girlfriend Deb and I booked into one of these resorts, it took about 5 minutes for me to send an email off to Avalon. I was hoping to book a day trip and chase some bonefish.
Here's one of the drawbacks to a monopoly… "Not possible," they replied. "We only do full weeks. Contact us closer to the date of your trip and we'll see what we can do."
I had previously devoured the Avalon website and really wanted to experience their fishery so it was an agonizing wait. Finally, a few weeks before we departed, I begged and pleaded with the Avalon representative and managed to book two day trips. I won't mention the price – that's another drawback of a monopoly!
Our very first night in Cuba was in Havana. It was actually New Year's Eve and we saw a grand Cuban tradition – hurling a bucket of water into the street from the front door. Luckily, we saw it from a distance…
The flight from Havana to Cayo Largo was on board a big dual-prop plane that looked like it dated from the 1960's. It was terribly noisy but it still gave us a good view of the immense flats that spread out from Cayo Largo. The landing – on a modern airstrip – was surprisingly smooth.
Cayo Largo is an idyllic Carribbean island with only a handful of resorts. A white sand beach? Scenic, rocky coastline? Palm trees? Scub pines? Starfish in pristine water? You can take your pick and with a little effort, you won't have to share with anyone.
On our first day of fishing, we taxied to the Avalon fishing center and were met by the fishing director and three guides. Yup, our guide and two others. It was a bit like a NASCAR pit stop; we had five outfits with us, and they had them all completely rigged in about 2 minutes. Another minute passed and we were in a state-of-the art skiff, planing towards the flats. I had in my hands a fly box that the fishing director gave me; it held a dozen proven local patterns.
I have to admit, however, our first day fishing was not too remarkable. Deb is not a fan of long boat rides so we fished the closest spots to the dock – a few large flats that were fairly deep and often held permit. However, a cold front had blown through a couple days before. Unlucky for us, the temperatures were still down and the winds were still up.
I think I spotted three fish that day; most of the time the guide was directing my casts across wave-rippled water. Regardless, he was excellent, with eagle eyes and a very patient manner. By the time we pulled up to the dock, both Deb and I had landed a couple bonefish.
We spent the next couple days exploring the island and sampling the excellent mojitos at the resort. When the cold front had thoroughly passed – and the winds lay down – I showed up for a second day of fishing. Deb had elected to spend the day at the resort.
I was paired with a different guide – although his patient, professional demeanor was very much the same as the first. Our plan, he said, would be to fish along a string of small cays that stretched outward from one end of Cayo Largo.
The first spot we pulled up to held an immense school of bonefish. They circled away from us and then towards us. I had absolutely no problem spotting them. It was about as easy as it gets in flats fishing – cast your fly about ten feet in front of the wriggling, cruising mass. Wait 'til it gets close… A couple strips… Watch five or six fish peel after your fly… Fish on!
With my reel buzzing, the guide would pole like crazy away from the school. We'd land the fish. And then repeat. These were solid 4 pounders. Every one of them went well into the backing. I'd wish I could say that after five fish I was ready for more of a challenge but to be honest – it my personal bonefish paradise. Lots of good-sized, eager, easy-to-see fish!
Nevertheless, the guide didn't want to educate too many fish and he suggested we push on. And so it went for the rest of the day – from one tiny little cay with a gorgeous flat to the next… It was perhaps the most perfect day of bonefishing I've ever experienced. There were no more huge schools, but plenty of singles and doubles and small groups. The water was gin clear, perfectly calm, and never more than knee deep. The bottom was a magical white sand that didn't hide fish very well. I landed 10 or 11 bonefish that day with a couple going 5 or 6 pounds. I could have landed more but the guide talked me into so many other things…
Like checking out a tiny cut through some mangroves for tarpon. They were in there – four or five good-sized juveniles! They finned lazily, wickedly obvious in the clear water. And just kept on finning lazily as my fly swam past. After a few casts, they melted back into the mangroves.
I also chugged a popper across a couple deep channels for barracuda. One showed himself but turned away. In disdain? I really think that barracuda are way smarter than most anglers think.
The guide even had me tossing a jig on a spinning rod into a couple more channels. He wanted me to sample some of the snapper fishing. Success! A four or five pound mutton snapper grabbed the jig and pulled like only snapper can.
Actually, that mutton snapper was quite an inspiration. Because shortly thereafter, we were about a mile offshore, and my tarpon rod was rigged with a sinking line. I was working a Clouser down among the patch reefs. To no avail, unfortunately. But just the anticipation of a big snapper on a fly rod made it worthwhile.
Before we headed back in, we checked out a couple deeper flats for permit. Truth be known, Cayo Largo actually has quite a reputation for permit. Maybe it's a good thing that none showed themselves that day; I was riding a bit of an adrenaline high after all the action and a permit might have pushed me over the edge.
Back at the dock, in the comfort of the Avalon fishing center's couch, I had a couple beers and a slice of pizza and gradually came down. If you ever decide to come to Cuba, bring a lot of gear. It seems the possibilities are endless…
* * * * * * * *
Here are a few additional notes if you every make it to Cuba…
It might be a tad inflexible, but Avalon runs a first class operation. They rotate anglers through well-defined zones to spread out the pressure. Both guides and boats are top notch.
A day or two in Havana is mandatory! Catch a jazz club, stroll the Malecon, admire the architecture, get a cab ride from a '55 Chevy (or maybe a bicycle) – it's gritty and grand at the same time.
The countryside near Vinales – about an hour from Havana – is incredibly exotic. Lush green farms with red soil are butted up against huge domes of vegetation and limestone.
Did I mention the great fishing?
**Editors Note: Being that Dale hails from Canada, It is very easy for him to be able to travel to Cuba for excellent adventures like this one. On the other hand us Americans are not so lucky…

I-beam Pitons Used On The Nose
A steel and aluminum piton made from I-beam stock by George Whitmore for the first ascent of the Nose of El Capitan, 1957 and 1958. The steel I-beam piton was affectionately called the "Big Brute" by the first ascent team. The Big Brute was by far the heaviest piton they carted up the route. Early on they decided they "needed a hammer that was heavier than the piton" and developed a beefier hammer made from a modified center punch. Warren Harding was hit in the head by the Big Brute after weighting it and after finishing his pitch was found glowering from his sloping ledge when his partners arrived. This ledge is called the Glowering Spot to this day.

A second shooting was stopped on the same day as Newtown tragedy
While a horrific tragedy occurred in Newtown, CT, a similar event was stopped in Oklahoma. : Sammie Eaglebear Chavez, who is only 18, plotted an attack on his high school in Bartlesville, according to Fox News.
An arrest affidavit says Chavez tried to convince other students to help him lure students into the auditorium, chain the doors shut and start shooting. The Tulsa World reports that authorities say Chavez threatened to kill students who didn't help.
The Bartlesville Examiner-Enterprise reports Chavez planned to detonate bombs at the doors as police arrived.: The school district says students were never in danger. Chavez is being held on $1 million bond.
While Adam Lanza was tragically able to cary out his depraved act of evil, folks in this Oklahoma community saw the signs and acted. : This is not to pit blame on the Newtown community, but it shows how our society has flaws when it comes to reporting activities of people who are mentally unbalanced. : I use that phrase in the sense that there is nothing rational about shooting your schoolmates. : As Jazz Shaw of Hot Air noted:
This is a reminder of something else which I believe is important to keep in mind. Something unimaginably awful happened yesterday [Dec. 14] in Connecticut. But something every bit as awful: didn't: happen in Oklahoma at the same time. And it didn't happen because people spoke up and police did their jobs. That one statement contains two different elements, both of which are worth remembering as the media rushes to push for more gun control laws.
First of all, for any given incident where some madman runs amok with a gun, there is an entire nation of well over 300 million people — each with their own share of potential madmen — where nothing goes wrong. I could expand on that point for hundreds of words, but it seems obvious enough for any rational thinker to grasp.
Second, and perhaps more to the point, there are differences between the two states in question. Connecticut, as I pointed out earlier today, has some of the toughest gun control laws in the nation. Oklahoma has traditionally been fairly protective of 2nd amendment rights and: just last month passed a new open carry law. Both of them were clearly under the threat of horrific assault by a madman. So it's difficult to pose the argument that the deranged are more or less likely to be found in one state or another based solely on their gun laws.
It's an issue of detection and subsequent treatment of the mentally unstable — who could commit violent acts against the general population.

Test ID: PT
Prothrombin Time, Plasma
Useful For Suggests clinical disorders or settings where the test may be helpful
Monitoring intensity of oral anticoagulant therapy when combined with INR reporting
Screening assay to detect deficiencies of 1 or more coagulation factors (factors I, II, V, VII, X) due to:
-Hereditary or acquired deficiency states
-Vitamin K deficiency
-Liver disease
-Specific coagulation factor inhibitors
Screening assay to detect coagulation inhibition ("circulating anticoagulants") associated with:
-Specific coagulation factor inhibitors
-Lupuslike anticoagulant inhibitors (antiphospholipid antibodies)
-Nonspecific prothrombin time inhibitors (eg, monoclonal immunoglobulins, elevated fibrin degradation products)
Clinical Information Discusses physiology, pathophysiology, and general clinical aspects, as they relate to a laboratory test
The prothrombin time (PT) represents the time elapsed between:
1) addition of a standardized mixture of tissue thromboplastin and calcium to citrate anticoagulated plasma and;
2) detection of clot formation, representing fibrin polymerization resulting from the generation of thrombin, which proteolytically transforms fibrinogen to fibrin.
Tissue thromboplastin is a mixture of phospholipid vesicles and tissue factor (TF), a protein cofactor.
Tissue thromboplastins have traditionally been prepared from animal tissue extracts (brain, placenta, lung) however, the recent availability of recombinantly derived human TF combined with purified phospholipid mixtures allows preparation of well-defined tissue thromboplastin with several potential advantages.
Together with phospholipid, TF forms a complex with coagulation factor VII/VIIa (activated factor VII), providing an enzyme-cofactor complex which, in the presence of ionic calcium, activates proenzyme coagulation factor X to the enzyme factor Xa.
Factor Xa, in turn, forms a complex with phospholipid, calcium, and activated factor V (Va, a protein cofactor) to form prothrombinase, which hydrolyzes factor II substrate (prothrombin) to the active coagulant enzyme thrombin.
Thrombin hydrolyzes fibrinogen (factor I) by cleaving specific peptides (fibrinopeptides A and B), to form fibrin monomer, which assembles into fibrin polymers (a clot).
The PT is not sensitive to deficiencies of coagulation factors VIII, IX, XI, XII ("intrinsic pathway" factors), or factor XIII, although the TF/VIIa complex can activate factor IX (in addition to factor X). A prolonged PT indicates deficiency of 1 or more coagulation factors (I, II, V, VII, or X) or the presence of a coagulation inhibitor.
The PT is the most common test used for monitoring oral anticoagulant therapy (warfarin or Coumadin, and congeners).Oral anticoagulants reduce the activities of the 4 vitamin K-dependent procoagulant factors (factors II, VII, IX, and X), and the PT is sensitive to 3 of them.
The PT requires standardization because there are numerous thromboplastins and coagulation testing instruments, and they all vary in their responsiveness to the concentrations or activities of coagulation proteins. The international normalized ratio (INR) is a method of standardizing PT reporting for monitoring the intensity of oral anticoagulant therapy. The INR is the ratio of the patient's PT to the laboratory's mean normal (reference) PT. The international sensitivity index (ISI) is an experimentally derived measurement, usually provided by the thromboplastin manufacturer, reflecting thromboplastin (and PT) sensitivity to coagulation deficiencies. More sensitive thromboplastins have a low ISI (1.0-1.2), whereas less sensitive thromboplastins have a higher ISI (eg, 2.0-3.0). Calculation of the INR is as follows:
INR = (Patient's PT/mean PT of reference range) ISI where:
-INR=international normalized ratio
-ISI=international sensitivity index
Recommended INR therapeutic ranges for orally administered drugs are as follows:
-Anticoagulation intensity: INR
-Standard intensity: 2.0 to 3.0
-Higher intensity: 3.0 to 4.5
The INR is used only for patients on stable oral anticoagulant therapy. It makes no significant contribution to the diagnosis or treatment of patients whose PT is prolonged for other reasons.
At Mayo Clinic and for Mayo Medical Laboratories clients, the PT test is performed with a sensitive thromboplastin (ISI 1.0 +/- 0.05), containing phospholipid and recombinantly derived TF.
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.
9.5-13.8 seconds
The INR is used only for patients on stable oral anticoagulant therapy. It makes no significant contribution to the diagnosis or treatment of patients whose PT is prolonged for other reasons.
Interpretation Provides information to assist in interpretation of the test results
The prothrombin time (PT) test varies in its sensitivity to the activity of coagulation factors II, V, VII, and X, and is least sensitive to decreased factor II.
Mixing studies with normal plasma (ie, adding various proportions of normal pooled plasma to patient plasma) are useful in initial evaluation of prolonged PT when the cause of a prolonged PT is unknown (eg, not attributable to known oral anticoagulation or known coagulation factor deficiency):
-Typically an equal volume mixture (1:1) of patient and normal plasma shortens the prolonged PT into the normal (reference) range when there is a deficiency of 1 or more of the clotting factors (I, II, V, VII, X). Failure to normalize the PT in 1:1 mixing suggests presence of an inhibitor (eg, specific factor inhibitor, lupuslike anticoagulant or antiphospholipid antibody, nonspecific inhibitor).
-Typically the addition of patient plasma of 1/10 or 2/10 volume of normal plasma shortens the prolonged PT, at least halfway toward the upper normal range, when there is a deficiency of 1 or more relevant coagulation factors. Inhibition is implied by failure to significantly shorten the PT.
-Additional coagulation testing may be needed to define the cause of an unexplained prolonged PT (eg, other clotting time tests, coagulation factor assays, testing for presence of a lupuslike anticoagulant). Mixing studies and such additional testing may be included in consultative testing (Coagulation Consultation).
Cautions Discusses conditions that may cause diagnostic confusion, including improper specimen collection and handling, inappropriate test selection, and interfering substances
Not useful for detecting deficiencies of coagulation factors that have no influence on the prothrombin time (PT) test (eg, factors VIII, IX, XI, XII, XIII). International normalized ratio (INR) reporting of the PT is useful only for monitoring intensity of stable oral anticoagulant therapy. The activity of coagulation factor V (labile factor) typically may be 10% to 20% lower in frozen-thawed plasma specimens than in fresh specimens, even under optimum conditions of processing and transportation, or may be even lower if these conditions are suboptimal, and may lead to a falsely prolonged PT.
In an occasional individual, a more marked decrease of factor V activity may occur with freeze-thaw of plasma. Hence, the PT of frozen-thawed plasma potentially may be slightly more prolonged than would be observed in testing of fresh specimen. Frozen plasma kept on dry ice (solid carbon dioxide) in closed shipping containers may have spurious prolongation of PT, due to acidification of plasma by absorbed carbon dioxide. Exposure of thawed plasma to a normal atmosphere for a few minutes usually eliminates this spurious effect.
The PT is much less sensitive to heparin effect than is the activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT), and therapeutic concentrations of heparin usually cause only slight prolongation of the PT (< or =1 sec with normal plasma, thromboplastin ISI 1.0, heparin < or =1 microgram/mL).
Supportive Data
Effective January 26, 2011, Mayo's prothrombin time (PT) measurements were changed. Specifically, the PT reagent was changed from Dade Innovin to the HemosIL RecombiPlasTin 2G reagent. PT results using HemosIL RecombiPlasTin 2G reagent are, on average, 15% more prolonged.
-With the new reagent, the lower limit of PT on the Stago STAR Evolution instrument changed from 5 to 9 seconds and the upper limit changed from 240 to 160 seconds.
-The new PT reference range of 9.5 to 13.8 seconds was determined from a Mayo Clinic reference range study.
-The new INR reference range of 0.8 to 1.2 was calculated using the new PT reference range, an international sensitivity index of 1.05, and a geometric mean of the reference range of 11.9.

How can I install official Android 2.2 Froyo in Samsung Galaxy S which runs Android 2.1 Eclair?
Take the 2-minute tour ×
Android Enthusiasts Stack Exchange is a question and answer site for enthusiasts and power users of the Android operating system. It's 100% free, no registration required.
Depends on your model. For most of the international versions such as the GT-i9000, you can get it over the air (a notification pops up, ir you can go to Settings -> Software update) or through Kies (I recommend getting Kies Mini from Samsung.com). Froyo has not been officially released for some models including the US ones, however. I recommend a custom ROM such as Nero v5 for the T-Mobile Vibrant. The easiest way to find one is to go to XDA and look and the subforum for your device. Note you probably need root and ROM Manager (in the Market) to load a ROM.

Tired of companies trumpeting their new-found green-ness? Us too.
Simply put, Airstream has been green as long as it has been silver. The "green" concept is nothing new for Airstream, building environmentally products have been a standard since Airstream's inception. Southwest Coaches is happy to note that our Airstream products are still taking the same environmentally friendly approach that have sustained us, and our planet, for nearly 80 years.
Airstreams are designed to spend time on the road, not in the landfills. As such, nearly 70% of all Airstream trailers ever produced are still on the road! While other products are designed to wear out, Airstreams are designed to be handed down through the generations.
Airstreams work with nature, not against it. Airstream's founder, Wally Byam, knew that a low profile and a rounded, slippery shape would make for better towing in every respect. As a result, Airstreams enjoy a 20% advantage in towing efficiency over standard "white box" trailers. And over the life of your Airstream, that's a lot of fuel saved.
And should your Airstream come to the end of its life after many decades of service, its primary components (aluminum, steel, and wood) are easily recycled.
So go ahead and enjoy your Airstream with a sense of global responsibility, and comfort in the fact that you are adventuring in one of the most environmentally friendly travel trailers in the world. And always remember that Airstreamers leave a place better than they found it. Silver is indeed Green.
How fuel-efficient is the Airstream?
Way back in the depression, Airstream engineered a trailer shape that Airstreamers have come to know and love. After 50 years of building the world's finest RVs, precious little has changed.
Oh, Airstream has added the creature comforts all right, but they haven't subtracted one iota from their fabled fit and finish. In fact, many folks think Airstream's newest trailers are the finest they've ever built. Money Magazine does. They recently judged Airstream "clearly superior" to the competition. "One of 99 things that American's make best."
As for fuel-efficiency? An Airstream's fuselage is still honed from the same high-strength, lightweight aluminum. Which, combined with its low center of gravity and unique Dora-torque axle, means better handling than any other RV - and up to 20% fewer trips to the gas pump. Silver is green. Airstream = MPG.

Australia's Daniel Ricciardo will partner with triple World Champion Sebastian Vettel at Infiniti Red Bull Racing when the 2014 FIA Formula 1 World Championship season which kicks off next March.
West Australian Ricciardo, 24, has signed a multi-year contract to replace compatriot Mark Webber, who is leaving Formula 1 at the end of the 2013 season to drive for Porsche in the World Endurance Championship.
Ricciardo made his F1 debut for the now defunct HRT team at the British Grand Prix in July 2011 before switching to Scuderia Toro Rosso, Red Bull's 'junior' F1 team, at the start of the 2012 season. His best result to date is seventh in China this year and he lies 14th overall in the 2013 Drivers' World Championship.
"I feel very, very good at the moment and obviously there's a lot of excitement running through me. Since joining F1 in 2011, I hoped this would happen and over time the belief in me has grown; I had some good results and Red Bull has decided that this is it, so it's a good time," said Ricciardo, for whom this weekend's Italian Grand Prix marks his 43rd Formula 1 appearance.
"Next year I'll be with a Championship-winning team, arguably the best team, and will be expected to deliver. I'm ready for that. I'm not here to run around in tenth place, I want to get the best results for myself and the team.
"It will be a great challenge to be up against Sebastian Vettel, I'm looking forward to that. My aim is to finish this season as strong as possible, for myself and Scuderia Toro Rosso. Then, once the off-season is here, I'll be fully focussed on next year and the next stage of my career."
Australian Grand Prix Corporation Chairman Ron Walker welcomed Ricciardo's promotion. "Having an Australian driver in the front ranks of Formula 1 can only be good news for our own event in Melbourne and for the popularity of the sport in this country," he said.
"In our own small way we helped engineer Mark Webber's graduation to Formula 1 and we will never forget the scenes when he scored World Championship points on debut in 2002. Now we all wish Daniel well as he seeks to leave his own imprint on the sport."
Andrew Westacott, CEO of the Australian Grand Prix Corporation, was quick to point out that Ricciardo has already established himself as a favourite in Australian race-goers' eyes.
"Dan has raced at Albert Park for the past two seasons," he said.
"On both occasions his happy-go-lucky personality and his ability to relate to younger fans in particular have made a major contribution to the feel-good factor at our event."
"We are very confident he will build on that even further now he has been given the chance to drive the front-running car in Formula 1."
Ricciardo's Infiniti Red Bull Racing debut will take place at the Australian Grand Prix at Melbourne's Albert Park on 16 March (subject to confirmation of provisional calendar).

Vero Cytoxicity Assay: A Cell Based Secondary Assay To Explore Cytotoxicity of Compounds that Inhibit Plasmodium falciparum M18 Aspartyl Aminopeptidase (PFM18AAP)
This functional assay was developed for detection of compounds inhibiting Vero E6 cells viability as a secondary screen to the PFM18AAP screen. ..more
BioActive Compounds: 33
Related Experiments
Southern Research Specialized Biocontainment Screening Center (SRSBSC)
Assay Provider: Donald Gardiner
Award: 1 R03 MH082342-01A1
This functional assay was developed for detection of compounds inhibiting Vero E6 cells viability as a secondary screen to the PFM18AAP screen.
In this assay, we treated Vero E6 cells with compounds selected as hits in the PFM18AAP assay for 72 hours over a 10 point 2-fold dilution series, ranging from 0.19uM to 100 uM. Following 72 hours of treatment, relative viable cell number was determined using Cell Titer Glo from Promega. Each plate contained 64 replicates of vehicle treated cells which served as negative controls.
Cell Culture: Vero E6 cells were subcultured every 7 days in E-MEM with 10% fetal bovine serum and 2 mM glutamine (complete growth medium), incubated at 37 degrees C in 5% carbon dioxide, and maintained for no more than 20 passages.
Compound Dosing/Plating: Carrier control / compounds were diluted in complete growth medium to prepare a 6X concentrated dosing solution which was dispensed into 384-well black clear-bottom tissue culture treated plates (5 uL volume).
Cell Plating: Twenty uL of complete growth medium containing 3000 cells were dispensed per well. Plates were incubated at 37 C, 5% CO2 for 72h prior to endpoint detection.
Endpoint/Detection: At the end of the treatment period, assay plates were removed from the incubator and equilibrated to room temperature for 10 min. Twenty-five uL of Cell Titer Glo reagent was added and plates were incubated for an additional 10 min in the dark. At the end of the incubation, assay plates were analyzed using a PerkinElmer Envision microplate reader in luminescence mode with an integration time of 0.1 s.
Data Analysis: Sixty-four control wells containing cells treated with DMSO vehicle and were included on each assay plate. Compound data was normalized and reported as % viability which was calculated using the following formula: % viability = 100*(Cmpd Lum-Med background)/(Med Cell Ctrl - Med background). The normalized % viability was plotted against the tested concentrations. The CC50 values were calculated using XLfit formula 205, a 4 parameter Levenburg-Marquardt algorithm with maximum and minimum limits set at 100 and 0, respectively and allowing extrapolation to identify weakly active compounds.
Outcome: Compounds that showed <80% cell viability for at least one concentration were defined as "Active" (toxic). If the % viability at all doses was <80%, the compound was defined as "Inactive" (non-toxic). Instances where replicate data sets conflicted on this criteria are listed as "Inconclusive".
The following tiered system has been implemented at Southern Research Institute for use with the PubChem Score: Compounds in the primary screen are scored on a scale of 0-40 based on % activity; a score of 40 corresponds to 100% activity. In the confirmatory dose response screen of primary screen hits, active compounds are scored on a scale of 41-80 based on CC50 result while compounds where activity was not confirmed are given the score 0. Confirmatory dose response and secondary screens of purified and/or resynthesized compounds, indicating the highest degree of confidence) are scored on a scale of 81-100 based on CC50 result. Inactive compounds are given the score 0.

The College Advisory Program Goes International
Rush Soccer is proud to provide a number of programs outside the normal realm of soccer training. One of those programs is the College Advisory Program or C.A.P, set up to serve the college bound player in many different areas. This program is run by C.A.P Director Michael Gabb and it's starting to grow internationally as well, representing a great opportunity for our international Rush players around the world to get involved in a U.S college. The C.A.P provides information and guidance to our boys and girls teams U15 to U19 in both academic and athletic areas.
Previously a national program, the C.A.P wants to expand across borders and help globally to our partners. For that reason Colorado Rush in conjunction with Rush Soccer is developing an international recruiting program to support our players from around the world. "The overall goal of the program is to connect the college programs that are looking for international players and those international players to connect in the easiest best way possible," says C.A.P Director, Michael Gabb. The C.A.P will increase the exposure of our international Rush players to those specific audiences in order to grow and develop the relationships with college academic and athletic programs.
"These players will receive step by step guidance in the recruiting process including a check list of academic and athletic items needed to gain entrance into institutions and programs in the United States," admits Michael Gabb. "They will have a working online profile directed towards partner institutions and will be able to market themselves to endless universities throughout the country at all levels," adds the C.A.P Director.
The international expansion of the C.A.P is being developed in Pernambuco Rush (Brazil), one of the most talented soccer countries in the world. Once the program is established in the South American country, it will be expanded to the rest of the Rush clubs around the world. The first objective of the brand new program is to support our foreign player in connecting with the best college programs.
The excitement in Brazil is remarkable as well: "Rush is a strong brand and with an excellent knowledge of soccer academies. I think we can get a good combination with all the great tactical organization from Rush and our Brazilian GINGA. I believe with this mix we will have excellent results," says Pernambuco Rush President, Antonio Gonçalves.
The C.A.P is an exciting project and a great opportunity for our international partners and their talented players. The program is expected to grow in the next months and spread out all over the world, because Rush Soccer believes that every child deserve a fair and equal opportunity to pursue a 1college education.

10 inaugural controversies from history
From no-shows to party-poopers to drunks — Inaugurations have seen their fair share of controversies and gaffes. Here's POLITICO's list of 10 stand-out controversies as we head into President Barack Obama's second Inauguration.
Obama got tongue-tied while taking his first oath of office in January 2009, stumbling over his words after Chief Justice John Roberts, who swore him in, had said a word out of sequence. Just to be safe, Obama retook the oath a few days later, but the conspiracy theorists had already sunk their teeth in.

The Juneau School District has concluded our investigation into allegations that on or about May 30-31 of this year a group of incoming senior boys hazed/initiated a group of incoming freshmen boys by paddling them multiple times.
These events were first brought to our attention in early June. At that time the district began an initial investigation, which, due to an active police investigation and summer vacation, was put on hold. When we were informed that the police had concluded their investigation we resumed our efforts.

This story was corrected on July 2, 2013.
Drivers are cutting their commuting time to about half by using the Intercounty Connector, according to a new study released by the Maryland Transportation Authority and the State Highway Administration.
Driving from Laurel to Gaithersburg during morning rush hour normally would take more than 47 minutes, but takes 17 minutes on the 18-mile ICC, according to the study.
Ellen Bogage, the president and CEO of Chesapeake Public Strategies, uses the ICC, also known as Md. 200, on her daily commute.
"I value my time," she said. "If it gives me back some of my time at home or in the office, that's a huge benefit."
She drives from her home in Olney to the Washingtonian Center in 10 minutes on the toll road, down from 24 minutes.
Results of the study are not surprising to Marilyn Balcombe, the president and CEO of the Gaithersburg Germantown Chamber of Commerce. She called the 2½-year-old ICC efficient and takes it when she drives to Baltimore, Prince George's County or Annapolis.
The study would make more sense if more people were using the road, as it cuts commutes, Balcombe said. But that's not the case.
"It's still too expensive," she said. "In order to get people to use it the tolls should be lower."
The state has said that the volume on the ICC, which cost $2.56 billion, is meeting expectations, she said.
"Our response is that they have pretty low expectations. We would like to see that road used a lot more," Balcombe said.
Shorter commuting times don't address the lack of users, said Councilman Philip M. Andrews, who fought against building the toll road. He thinks the state is not confronting the major issue of cost.
"The ICC is not providing enough traffic relief because the tolls are so high that people avoid using it," said Andrews (D-Dist. 3) of Gaithersburg.
ICC tolls are among the highest in the country, with $8 a day round trip during morning and afternoon rush hours. That comes to $40 a week for drivers who commute from Gaithersburg to Laurel.
The high tolls keep more people from using the highway and crowd other roads, when it was built to relieve pressure off Interstates 270 and 495, Balcombe said.
"The state needs to recognize that people's decision to use the ICC is very much based on cost, unlike the Bay Bridge, which people have no alternative to," Andrews said.
The councilman has been working with Gaithersburg-Germantown chamber to push the state to lower ICC tolls or offer frequent drivers a discount, as regular users of the Bay Bridge can get.
"These things take time," Balcombe said.
In March, a little more than two years after the highway opened, the state increased the speed limit by 5 mph. "We were able to get the speed limit raised. It should have been 65 mph, but we were happy that it went to 60 mph at least," she said.
If people aren't using the ICC because of cost, this study won't change their habits, according to Balcombe.
"The ICC was not built to be a Lexus lane," she said. "We need to do what we can to get people to use it."
Correction: The story originally quoted Andrews as saying the ICC wasn't providing enough "traffic." He said he said "traffic relief."

The second day in the jury trial of Daniel Aiello, 27, of St. Marys, charged with 134 counts of felony burglary and charges related to camp burglaries that occurred across Elk, Cameron, and McKean counties between 2010 and 2011, saw testimony from investigators as well as the defendant's half-brother, who is also charged in the crimes.
Mark Paul Kimes Aiello, 20, of Kane, testified Tuesday that his half-brother Daniel Aiello burglarized over 100 camps in Elk, Cameron, and McKean counties beginning in Benezette Township in November 2010.
ST. MARYS – From aircraft displays and a classic car show to an array of vendors, the St. Marys Municipal Airport's annual American Spirit Aviation Festival is hoping to attract a large crowd on Saturday, Aug. 25.
"We've been struggling in the past, but we are doing a lot better. Our nose is above water and we expect it to get better. This festival is part of all that, changing the image of the airport," said Alan McPherson, airport manager. "This has been an annual event and has been getting bigger every year. This year is more about seeing if we can make this go."
Due to a lack of funding and community support The River, a faith-based community teen center, at 20 Gillis Ave. in Ridgway will be closing its doors after four years of service to the community.
Teen Center Director Bill Braley and his wife Kristen have been with The River since its inception.
BOYERTOWN – The Wilcox American Legion baseball team lost 5-2 to Ephrata in the opening game of the Pennsylvania American Legion baseball tournament held Tuesday afternoon at Boyertown.
Both teams were wrapped up in a pitcher's duel for most of the game. Cole Peterson started for Wilcox and threw five shutout innings. He gave up three hits with two walks and six strikeouts. Brandon Miller threw a complete game for Ephrata and shut out Wilcox for the first eight innings before allowing a 2-run home run in the ninth. He allowed just four Wilcox hits and struck out six.
The Main Courtroom at the Elk County Courthouse was near capacity Monday, with members of the public and witnesses arriving for the first day in the jury trial of Daniel Aiello, 27, of St. Marys, charged with over 100 counts of felony burglary in a spree that spanned 13 months and three counties.
For his alleged role in the crimes, Daniel Aiello is charged with the following: felony burglary; felony and misdemeanor theft by unlawful taking of moveable property; criminal conspiracy; and criminal mischief with damage to property through reckless, negligence, or intention.
ST. MARYS – When Janet Wolfe received an email earlier this years from an acquaintance who was trying to raise funds to host an orphaned child from Eastern Europe through New Horizons For Children, Inc., she was less interested in helping them fundraise than she was in also potentially hosting one of the children during the five-week-long summer program.
The Trinity United Methodist Church has been led by new pastor, Rev. Roger A. Peterson since early July.

Thursday afternoon's big storm cut across Elk and nearby counties, leaving downed trees, power lines, and debris in its wake. As of press time Friday, some county residents were still without power. Many Verizon Wireless customers lost service from the time the storm hit, and service was restored around 3:15 p.m. Friday. According to Elizabeth Bacheson, a public relations representative for Verizon Wireless, a cut in a fiber optic cable impacted several cell sites in portions of Elk, Cameron and Clearfield counties, and crews had tried to locate the cut and repair it as quickly as possible.
Directors of the Elk County Conservation District are considering the purchase of a second water monitoring website database to coincide with the one currently used for the Elk County Monitoring Project.
The Elk County Monitoring Project's website, powered by NexSens Technology, relays data from satellite telemetry systems installed within the streams and watersheds of Elk County.
According to Watershed Specialist Kim Bonfardine, the current database is limited to its 11 satellite telemetry systems that are expected to be completely installed by the end of summer.

The Wisconsin Judicial Commission V. David Prosser? Come On, Man!
Just when you thought the Wisconsin legal community couldn't make itself look any more foolish, along comes "The Wisconsin Judicial Commission versus The Honorable David T. Prosser"!
The dust up last June between Wisconsin Supreme Court Justices David Prosser and Ann Walsh Bradley was, in a word, embarrassing.
For those keeping score at home, a dispute had arisen between the various Justices on the timing of the release of the Court's decision upholding the Collective Bargaining Act. At one point, Justice Bradley apparently charged Justice Prosser in a fit of rage. Justice Prosser responded by raising his hands in what he describes as a defensive gesture. In the process, Prosser's hands came in contact with Bradley's neck.
No one was injured in the confrontation and a Special Prosecutor found no basis was to issue criminal charges against either Prosser or Bradley.
Many of us hoped that the "no prosecution" decision would be the end of an unfortunate situation. No such luck.
The Wisconsin Judicial Commission, up until very recently stacked with appointees of former Governor Jim Doyle, has now chosen to file ethics charges against Justice Prosser - and Justice Prosser alone. In doing so, the Commission assures that while nothing will ultimately happen with regard to Prosser, the incident will continue to make headlines.
Perhaps embarrassing Justice Prosser is all they hope to accomplish. I mean, it's hard to see what else they could be trying to do?
Here's how ethics complaints against judges work. A three judge panel is typically set up to hear the complaint. The panel then determines whether there has been a violation of the Rules and, if so, makes recommendations to the Supreme Court (which then decides on sanctions). It takes four Justices to hear a case.
In this situation, two of the Justices (Bradley and Prosser) are participants in the underlying event. Four other Justices are witnesses. That leaves Justice Crooks (who is undoubtedly extremely thankful that he was not in the office on that particular day) as the only Justice without first-hand knowledge of the event.
The long and short of this is that from a practical (and probably ethical) perspective, this case will never be able to be heard by the Supreme Court. As such, pursuing questionable charges like this is the definition of an exercise in futility.
Beyond this, if a prosecutor couldn't find a basis for bringing charges because of conflicting stories, why do we presume the three judge panel (who undoubtedly know all the parties) will have any additional insight?
Under these circumstances, it's hard not to view the action of the Commission in pursuing this matter as being politically motivated .... and that's the last thing the Wisconsin legal community needs at this particular point.
"The Wisconsin Judicial Commission versus The Honorable David T. Prosser"? Come on, man!

Rated 5 out of 5�by heyjudy621 Great fit This coat is great. My husband does not like a bulky coat and this coat was just perfect. Light weight with warmth and no bulk. December 2, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5�by Steve much warmer than I expected I've wanted one for a long time but could never find my size. Since they don't make tall sizes, I had to go big for the sleeve length. It fits loose but that's fine, I'll have room for a sweater if ever need one. October 28, 2014
Rated 1 out of 5�by Flounder Its not made for big AND tall guys. Nothing long about it. Very upset that you posted this wrong. Waste of time and money. I will be returning this heavy hearted as I was expecting it to be longer than it is. I seriously HATE vanity sizing. October 24, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5�by Spearman Great Jacket Versitle I love the weight warmth an versatility. Sleeves are too long and could stand to have a tighter elastic. February 23, 2014

Goals: Dawn is designed to study the conditions and processes of the solar system's earliest epoch by investigating in detail two of the largest protoplanets remaining intact since their formations. The orbiter targeted the giant asteroid Vesta and dwarf planet Ceres, two main asteroid belt worlds that followed very differently evolutionary paths.
Accomplishments: Dawn comprehensively mapped Vesta, revealing an exotic and diverse protoplanet. The findings are helping scientists unlock some of the secrets of how the solar system, including our own Earth, was formed. It is now en route to dwarf planet Ceres.

After writing "solo" over a part intended for one instrumentalist in a section, what's the best way to indicate that the the entire section should again begin playing?
Take the 2-minute tour ×
Music: Practice & Theory Stack Exchange is a question and answer site for musicians, students, and enthusiasts. It's 100% free, no registration required.
There are a couple of standard conventions for this, depending on the instrumentation you are writing for.
The first, is just writing the word Tutti above the music where the rest of the section is to enter.
The second can be used only if there is a specific number of players in the section. For instance, in an orchestral piece with two clarinets, when the solo ends, a2 is written above where the other player is then suppose to come in. This tells the players that now two people are suppose to play. Similarly, a3 and sometimes a4 are used.

Georges Reunion
Friends of George's are the spirits of everyone who once felt alone in the world, but then found acceptance in an unlikely place—a place where they learned to embrace individuality and to celebrate diversity. Many people in the 1970s and 1980s when there was great struggle for acceptance and equality found ...this place at a Memphis bar known as George's. It is our mission to produce events and occasions that not only reunite us to celebrate our common history, but to have a positive impact on the Memphis gay community as a whole by enlightening the younger generations to the fun we had, the hard battles we fought to be ourselves, and the camaraderie we shared then, and now. Through our fund raising efforts, we would like to give back to the Memphis Gay, Lesbian, Bi & Transgender community. In doing so, we hope to establish a higher standard of pride in the community while hosting celebrations which we as a community can be proud of for generations to come. George's began in a small storefront on Madison Ave. between McLean and Evergreen. It eventually became known as the Queen Mother Memphis Gay Bars. George Wilson first became involved with this bar at the end of 1969, the same year of the Stonewall Rebellion in New York. It and its successors became the place where many people came out and learned their first lessons in pride and self-esteem. It represented a new community—gays, lesbians, bisexual people and transgendered people (and their friends)—and George's was its community center. People were accepted into this place when they dressed strangely, identified with a gender different from their physical selves, were old or young or were just lonely and afraid. A raid on the drag performers in 1971 resulted in the dropping of charges against them. Memphis then had its counterpart to the Stonewall Inn in New York. Self esteem improved for everyone and those who wanted to perform found their Drag-Mothers and a venue for self expression. Like any family or community, it wasn't perfect. Those who still remember what George's was like feel like family and old rivalries and attitudes, though remembered, are less important. It was this early sense of community which led the founders of Friends of George's to choose the Memphis Gay and Lesbian Community Center (MGLCC) as our beneficiary. We chose MGLCC because we felt its programs target many diverse areas of the community and they encourage strong role models. The Drag-Mothers took in many homeless GLBT youth of their era and the MGLCC provides a program which addresses this problem in this era. mglcc.org.

Not everyone is in to the hearts and cupids of a traditional Valentine's Day. Some bristle at the commercialism of the holiday while others are irritated by the saccharine sentimentality.

The adult Anti-Valentine's Day party will be held on Monday, February 13th at 6:00 p.m. at the Eastern Avenue Branch Library. The teen party will be held on Tuesday, February 14th at 5:30 p.m at the Fairmount Branch Library.

Stupid New York people
Subject: Alligator Safety Warning
The Florida Department of Fish and Wildlife is advising visitors from New York City to take extra precautions and keep alert for alligators while vacationing in Florida.
They advise people to wear noise-producing devices such as little bells on their shoes or clothing to alert but not startle the alligators unexpectedly. They also advise the carrying of pepper spray in case of an encounter with an alligator. It is also a good idea to watch for fresh signs of alligator activity.
New Yorkers should learn to recognize the difference between small young alligator droppings and large adult alligator droppings.
Young alligator droppings are smaller and contain fish bones and possibly bird feathers.
Adult alligator droppings smell like pepper spray and have little bells in them.

The last alum tubing i bought in that size was 28 bucks for a 12' stick and i am sure its higher now. I would figure how much for the tubing than times it x 3 for welding it up. Sounds like you have a bunch to make...BobBob Wright, Grandson of Tee Nee Boat Trailer Founder

Thank you guys I figured that it would take about 6 tubes to make it plus some 1/4 inch plates for the casters base. A fitter and a welder (that one would be me) for a total of $1,690.00 per table frame including casters and fob my shop. Waiting for the client to reply wish me luck!!!!

[Phone ringing]
Scott: Yo, Kris. I really knocked the boots on those two big-butt females last night
Kris: Jeeez!
Scott: Yeah, man. I'm on my way down to Latin Quarter to find two more freaks
Kris: Word...
[Verse 1]
Scott LaRock is for now the main topic
Not looking at his cuts or cash flow of the pocket
You may not realize it or you may not know
But, uh... (He is the Super Ho)
When I say super I'm not exaggeratin
Datin for a guy like Scott turns into matin
He seems to be quiet but I don't buy it
Proof is in the puddin, why don't you just try it
The Super Ho is loose in your section
And he's armed with a powerful erection
So grab your girl and run for protection
Your momma too, cause I like to mention
[Verse 2]
Whatever you could do or say inside a bed
Scott LaRock has done and most likely said
He doesn't argue with a girl cause yes, he has others
Keep updated on all kind of rubbers
Got ones that are lambskin, others that are plastic
One day he'll open a school for prophylactics
They don't know... (He is the Super Ho)
Up in Rochester on DKX
WDKX, now DK-Sex
We were bein interviewed there live on air
Every girl in the city Scott had an affair
KM in the AM had asked his last question
But Scott LaRock said "Wait, I gotta mention
The fact that I'm single, I like to mingle"
And one more time bust the fresh jingle
[Verse 3]
In the field of music I'll always pass by
Girls that claim to act so fly
They always act like it's all about them or their friends
But according to Scott, they all like to bend
Yes, fly girls, shy girls, black girls, white girls
In eighty-seven it's got to be the right girl
If you claim to have a little problem
Well, Scott LaRock knows just how to solve em
If you're a guy a nine'll do the trick
But if you're a girl, you need some... flowers
I admit Scott has strange powers
Enticing girls in less than an hour
Or should I say minutes? I seen how he did it
He probably says "I'm Scott LaRock" and she's with it
So whether he's a gigolo, tramp, or pro... (He is the Super Ho)
Now many people have their ways of expressin
What they do best, for Scott it's undressin
Yes, either a girl or some date for the night
He doesn't want to hear that you're too tight
So do not think that Scott LaRock is mean
It's not his fault, he'll give you Vaseline
The Super Ho is loose in your area
Makin life for girls a little scarier
So if you got a radio tryin to tape this
Do not keep in mind that he is a rapist
For the Super Ho to be chillin
Another female out there has to be willin
So all you tramps and hoes raise your hand
Cos Super Ho Scott LaRock understands
If you're a guy we'll talk about hangin
And if you're a girl he'll talk about bangin
If your moms call up, well, I don't know
But uh... (He is the Super Ho)

Ken, Nah people are listening/reading they just don't have a comment... what would they comment about the Obama health care that 60% America Didn't/Doesn't want....or the 10% (Some states 15%) unemployment that wasn't solved by spending BILLIONS of dollars that your grand children won't have enough time to pay off....unless they live 150 years... but that's not likely because the health won't support their health needs. But not to worry Ken, after November things will change.
