Comments about 'Obama taps Hagel for Pentagon, Brennan for CIA'
- Oldest first

- Most recommended
If Hagel is soft on Iran and other Arab nations that want to eradicate Israel,
then that is what President Obama has shown in his policy for 4 years. This
process will put a Republican on the firing line, and not one of the
President's party. This is very similar to President Clinton putting
Republican Senator Bill Cohen as his Secretary of Defense. If Senator Hagel has
any principles and integrity, will he keep them for his time as DoD Secretary?
Bill Cohen was a yessir person, lock, stock, and barrell in the second term of
President Clinton. Their wives were very similar in philosophy.
Senator Hagel will have a different type of combat scene in his time there and looks as though he has weathered quite a few battles with his own Republicans and likes this President's philosophies of running both the Department of State and Department of Defense. It will be interesting to see a President running both John Kerry and Chuck Hagel's departments from his position. More of the same 4 years, with a deficit, problems around the world both politically and militarily and the President going around the world at $200M a day costs.

So what JWB is trying to tell us is that there really is NO ONE he would support
as Secretary of Defense, regardless of party background or even his WIFE'S
Let's just assume that JWB opposes any name for any office, as long as the one doing the nominating is President Obama. If anything changes on that, JWB will inform us.

My start was at Chicago's WYEN in 1973. I'm still on the air at WKOA
Lafayette In. Several of our personalities have spent time in Tuson.
I'm glad you have kept the memories alive.
Lived in Tucson 1980 - 82, remember great station highlighted by Bob
Cooke's tribute to John Lennon when he was killed; have two cassettes
of Beatles music thanks to Bob. Sadly we were still there when BC was
taken from us. Still a sad memory to this day. Long live the memory of
KWFM in Tucson and WZMF in Menomonee Falls,WI.
Nostalgic for Tucson. Nice site you've got here. One correction if I
may. You've got a picture in your Gallery labeled "Central Air", which
is actually one of the last incarnations of "The Air Brothers". Left to
right: John Houge, Greg White, Chris Drake, and Dale Caddell.
Yo Mark...you got me remembering the blinking east-west traffic lights
on 22nd st., Broadway Blvd., Speedway Blvd. Grant Rd., et al.
Sure miss the old K-Dub with AB/JB/Matty/Janie Snyder/Bill Robins/Lee
Dombrowski, so many others, and OF COURSE--the KWFM faithful AND, NEVER
FORGETTING, the businesses putting their hard earned advertising dollars
on K-Dub while we got this puppy in the rating books. For me? '72-'74.
Some of the best times of my life. GOD BLESS MARK YOUNG!!
Yeah bro. '72-'77--loved those blinking yellow lights on Speedway,
Broadway, Grant Rd., et al. Loved my days w/AB,JB, Matty, Janie Snyder,
Bill Russell, Lee Dombrowski and the K-Dub fans who supported us thru
the formative years.
God bless, and God rest Mark Young.

Oh yes, yes, yes. If you like beef and barley this is divine. I was skeptical about the vegetables used (yams, cauliflower, broccoli) but it all came together. I did use a bit more stock.flag if inappropriate
Delicious!!! My guests helped themselves to hearty third and fourth servings! I followed the recipe exactly.flag if inappropriate
Good Soup....I would add the broccoli and the cauliflower in after the barley...maybe with the beef to avoid overcooking.....flag if inappropriate
This soup was excellent! It was easy to prepare and my kids even liked it. Can't wait to serve it for company.flag if inappropriate
This is the most wonderful soup I've ever made. It freezes very well and is absolutely delicious. I've made it at least four times.flag if inappropriate
My mother-in-law from Italy raved about the soup. My husband said "why didn't you make a bigger pot". We absolutely loved it. This is a keeper.flag if inappropriate
It was okay. Alittle dry- I tried adding a lot more thyme and oregano. I also had to add alot more chicken broth when cooking. Also make sure that you cut the vegetables into one-inch cubes because they will fall apart quickly.flag if inappropriate
yum. I love homemade soup, but don't make it often because my kids don't like it, but even they liked this one.flag if inappropriate
I MADE THIS SOUP FOR DINNER TODAY AND IT WAS ABSOLUTELY DEEEEEEEEELICIOUS!!!!!INSTEAD OF YAMS I SUBSTITUTED CARROTS--TO GO EASY ON THOSE CARBOS!!!VERY HEALTHY EASY TO PREPARE DISH.WE SPRINKLED GRATED LOCATELLI PARMEZAN CHEESE ON TOP AND SERVED IT WITH CUBAN BREAD.flag if inappropriate

That was a huge trade
Was that Najarian getting out?
It is all about volume bud, it is slowly ticking up along with the price, and that usually means somebody knows something.
that is why it went from 3.8 to 3.89 now based on that block - good read
Sentiment: Strong Buy
Good call - hope you're short!
Watch ouit, you're starting to sound like chelle a little bit.
With all the games mm's play to accumulate and make a big-volume trade; it's hard to say if a particulear trade is in one direction or the other. Or look at it ths way, there was a buyer bidding for those 140,000 shares .
I'm encouraged to see us hang in here at $3.7. I would love to go into next Tuesdays afterhour 10Q at this level. Any hint of improving prospects should take us right over the $4 hurdle.
-the bum
Here's my thoughts:
1. I think the stock is performing well of late technically. Lots of up on high volume days and down on below average volume.
2. It's up to management to paint a decent picture for us at earnings. Don't hype but just tell us what you are seeing and how you feel about the 2nd half and 2014.
3. The market overall is very toppy IMHO. It's all been propped up on QE-infinity and the global economy is mostly worse than the US. Our economy and the global economy is not good at all. This is a headwind to our markets.
4. Back to point 3 most of us have not felt like we have reaped the rewards of the QE forever holding this stock. Has the rise in the solars and LEDs been based on real demand or is this a case of a tired bull market rotating into a lagging sector as the last legs of the bull?
5. As that #$%$ from CNBC and I do mean #$%$ in case you missed it, known as Cramer says, "there's always a bull market somewhere". Is it possible the solar and LED markets can be a leading sector in a lagging global economy? And/or has this been so beaten down that just a couple good developments could result in a whipsaw up to $5-$7+?
Any thoughts on any of the above?
Thanks and good luck longs. It's been a long time coming so I hope we start to reap some rewards.
I never try to predict the movement of this stock one way or another. I've been in this stock way to long and have learned not to try. I only comment about the BS trading in general after the moves occur.
Ken- I sold half my shares. I will buy them back if it goes lower or if we tread water for a few days here. I can see it doing either. I think it will need to consolidate here for quite some time before making another big move upwards, but I could be wrong; obviously. Good luck.
There was a million share trade yesterday and it only moved 1 penny

Evolvable Hardware
Evolvable hardware (EHW) refers to hardware whose architecture/structure and functions change dynamically and autonomously in order to improve its performance in carrying out tasks. The emergence of this field has been profoundly influenced by the progress in reconfigurable hardware and evolutionary computation. Traditional hardware can be inflexible—the structure and its functions are often impossible to change once it is created. However, most real world problems are not fixed—they change with time. In order to deal with these problems efficiently and effectively, different hardware structures are necessary. EHW provides an ideal approach to make hardware "soft" by adapting the structure to a problem dynamically.
The contributions in this book provide the basics of reconfigurable devices so that readers will be fully prepared to understand what EHW is, why it is necessary and how it is designed. The book also discusses the leading research in digital, analog and mechanical EHW. Selections from leading international researchers offer examples of cutting-edge research and applications, placing particular emphasis on their practical usefulness.
Professionals and students in the field of evolutionary computation will find this a valuable comprehensive resource which provides both the fundamentals and the latest advances in evolvable hardware.less

Graissessac Things to Do
Walk in the Hills
There are plenty of opportunities to walk or hike in the beautiful hills around Graissessac. In Spring and Summer, you'll often see large groups of French hikers tramping the Pistes and tracks.
Hidden within the hills surrounding the village are many vestiges of the previous mining industry that sustained the area for many years. With nature now reclaiming the former mining sites, these make for unusual rural walks.
The village is contained within the Parc Naturel Regional du Haut-Languedoc.Related to:

The invention relates to electrical engineering, in particular, to capacitor-making industry and can find application in producing high-capacity electric capacitors making use of double electric layer (DEL). Capacitors with DEL have found application as stand-by power sources in systems requiring uninterrupted power supply, such as computation engineering, communications equipment, numerically controlled machine tools, in uninterrupted cycle production processes; for electric-starter starting of diesel engines; for power supply of invalid carriages, golf carriages, and so on.
Known in the art presently are electric energy accumulators appearing double electric layer (DEL) capacitors, e.g., those disclosed in U.S. Pat. No. 4,313,084 (1982) and U.S. Pat. No. 4,562,511 (1985). Said capacitors comprise each two porous polarizable electrodes and porous separator made of a dielectric material and placed therebetween, and current leads. A liquid electrolyte solution in the capacity of which either aqueous or non aqueous electrolytes (aqueous sulfuric acid inclusive) are used, is contained in the pores of the electrodes and separator, as well in a certain free space inside the capacitor casing. Electric charge is accumulated at the interface in the pores between the electrode material and the electrolyte. Used as the materials of polarizable electrodes are various routine porous carbon materials. To increase the capacitor capacitance with double electric layer said carbon materials are subjected to preactivation with a view to increasing their specific surface area up to 300-3000 sg.m/g.
DEL capacitors possess much higher capacitance compared with routine film-type and electrolytic capacitors, amounting to a few scores farads per gram of active electrode materials. However, said capacitors suffer from the disadvantage that they have but rather low specific energy, i.e., as low as 3 W-h/lit. In this case maximum specific energy values are attainable with dual-layer capacitors using non-aqueous electrolytes for which the maximum voltage is within 3 and 3.5 V. However, such capacitors allow very low charging and discharge current values to be obtained, which is due to very low conductivity values of non-aqueous electrolytes. For dual-layer capacitors using aqueous electrolytes featuring maximum voltage value of 0.8 V still lower specific energy values are attainable, i.e., 0.5 to 2 W-h/lit. When such dual-layer capacitors are in a charged state for a rather prolonged period of time with voltage exceeding 0.8 V, noticeable oxidation of the positive carbon electrode occurs.
Closest to the proposed invention as to the technical essence and attainable effect is a DEL capacitor comprising two electrodes and liquid electrolyte (i.e., an aqueous alkali-metal hydroxide with a concentration of 3 to 7 mole/lit having a polarizable (negative) electrode made of a carbon fibrous material and a non-polarizable electrode made of nickel oxide. Maximum voltage of said capacitor equals 1.4 V and specific capacitance and specific energy, 46 F/cu.cm and 45 J/cu.cm, respectively (WO 97/07518 dated Feb. 27, 1997).
However, the capacitor in question suffers from a number of disadvantages such as inadequately high specific energy and high cost accounted for by use of large amounts of nickel oxide.
It is an object of the present invention to provide a DEL capacitor featuring a higher specific energy.
It is another object of the invention to reduce the production cost of the capacitor involved. The foregoing objects are accomplished due to the invention disclosed hereinbelow the essence of which resides in that the capacitor in question has a polarizable electrode made from a porous carbon material and a non-polarizable electrode made from a material comprising lead sulfate as an active component, as well as in that used as electrolyte is an aqueous solution containing sulfuric acid.
It is preferable that the capacitor incorporate a current lead provided with a protective coating made from graphite foil impregnated with an acid-resistant polymer.
It is expedient that the capacitor also incorporate two polarizable electrodes, one non-polarizable electrode, and two separators, all of said component being arranged in the following order: the first polarizable electrode/the first separator/the non-polarizable electrode/the second separator/the second polarizable electrode, both of the negative electrodes being short-circuited on each other. With such an arrangement of the electrodes and separators the specific capacitance of the polarizable (negative) electrode is substantially lower than that of the non-polarizable (positive) electrode, whereby a total thickness of the negative electrode is much larger than that of the positive electrode. Hence the herein-proposed splitting of one negative electrode into two electrodes having half-thickness each provides for virtually one-half reduction of ohmic loss of energy with rather high current density values.
It is also expedient that the material of one or all electrodes is doped with a particulate material, such as polytetrafluoroethylene or polyethylene. First, this makes it possible to produce the negative electrode from not only a fibrous carbon material (e.g., a carbon fabric which is the case with the known capacitor (cf. WO application # 97/07,518) but also from a material based on carbon powders with the use of a polymer binder. The latter electrode is much cheaper one. Secondly, use of a polymer binder makes possible attaining an increased strength of both the negative electrode and the positive (lead-sulfate) one.
It is expedient that one capacitor or a bank of capacitor elements be compressed between the load-bearing covers of the casing so as to considerably reduce the capacitor internal resistance, especially when using negative electrodes from carbon fabric or felt, and to prevent the active material of the positive electrode from shedding which is one of the principal causes that restrict cyclicity of the DEL capacitors made according to WO application # 971/07,518. It is due to the above specified technical solutions that it is possible to essentially increase the specific energy and to reduce the cost of capacitors. An increase in the specific energy up to 2.0 V is provided due to a 1.5-times increase in the electric conduction of the sulfuric-acid electrolyte compared with the alkaline one. The cost of a DEL capacitor made in accordance with the present invention is decreased due to the use of a lead-sulfate electrode which is much cheaper than a nickel-oxide one. Use of lead sulfate as the active material of the positive electrode provides a possibility of using diluted sulfuric acid as electrolyte which facilitates much the assembling of the DEL capacitors involved.
FIG. 1 illustrates the capacitor, according to the present invention;
FIG. 2 illustrates graphic representation of voltage and potentials of the electrodes vs discharge time; and
FIG. 3 illustrates a schematic diagram of a bank of capacitors assembled from the capacitor elements according to the present invention.
The following Reference Numerals in the Figures denote as follows: 1—load-bearing capacitor cover; 2—insulator preventing capacitor electrodes from electric contact to each other; 3—metal current lead; 4—current lead protective coating made from graphite foil; 5—negative polarizable porous carbon electrode; 6—dielectric separator; 7—positive electrode; 8—acid-resistant sealant; 9—load-bearing walls of the capacitor casing.
A DEL capacitor (FIG. 1) is made in accordance with the present invention, comprising a negative electrode (5) consisting of sixteen plies of activated carbon fabric, type "Viscumac" having a specific surface area of 1200 sg.m/g and a 300 micron thickness of each ply; a positive electrode (7) 2 mm thick having an active material containing lead sulfate and being forced into a grid made from an alloy containing 95% lead and 5% antimony; a porous separator (6), grade ΦIIII-20CA, made from perchlorovinyl having a total thickness of 120 microns; current leads (3, 4) made of sheet steel; a 3 mm thick steel load-bearing cover (1) of the casing; a 0.3 mm thick load-bearing side panels (9) of the casing; and a dielectric sealant (8).
The negative and positive porous electrodes and the porous separator are impregnated with electrolyte, i.e., an aqueous sulfuric acid having a density of 1.05 g/cu.cm. The protective coating (4) of the current lead is made of a 0.3 mm thick graphite foil impregnated with an acid-resistant polymer and adhesive-bonded at several points to the metal electrode of the current lead. Both electrodes appear as plates each measuring 123×143 mm. A set of the electrodes and separator is compressed at a pressure of 10 kg/sq.cm.
FIG. 2 illustrates graphic representation of voltage Uc and the positive electrode potential Ea and the negative electrode potential Ec (relative to the hydrogen electrode in the same solution) vs discharge time t. The characteristic curves are measured at 20° C. and a current of 10 A.
The aforesaid relationships enables one to draw the following inferences:
(1) The positive electrode potential decreases but very little during the discharge process.
(2) The negative electrode potential increases nearly linearly during the discharge process until E is 1.0 V.
(3) As a result, the discharge curve in an interval of voltages below 1.8 V approximates a linear aspect inherent in capacitors.
(4) Maximum voltage (Umax) is approximately 2 V.
Insofar as with the potentials exceeding 1 V carbon electrodes are liable to oxidize at a rather high rate, so minimum discharge voltage Umin occurs when (E)max=1 V. It is evident from FIG. 2 that for a given capacitor Umin=0.7 V.
The following characteristics are obtained as a result of testing: specific energy, 53.4 W-h/lit; the number of the charging-discharge cycles obtained, 6500 (after which the testing was continued).
A bank of DEL capacitors is manufactured, comprising seven similar series-connected elementary capacitors made according to the present invention and compressed together between the lead-bearing covers and the side panels of the casing. FIG. 3 illustrates a schematic diagram of such a bank of capacitors. Each elementary capacitor consists of two identical negative electrodes and a positive electrode interposed therebetween. The positive electrode is put in an envelope-shaped separator. Both of the negative electrodes are electrically closed together through external switching. The overall dimensions of the entire assembly: 130×150×64.4 mm. The negative electrode is made by molding and sintering a mixture comprising 8 wt. % of powdered polyethylene and 92 wt. % of grade Al-3 activated powdered carbon having a specific surface area of 1100 cu.mg, the negative thickness being 3 mm. The positive electrode comprises a grid made of an alloy containing 95% lead and 5% antimony. Put inside the grid cells is a mixture comprising 93% lead sulfate and 7% polytetrafluoroethylene. A 60 micron thick, grade ΦIIII-20CA, perchlorovinyl separator is used. The protective coatings of the current leads of the negative electrodes is similar to those of Example 1.
The following characteristics are obtained as a result of testing: specific energy, 51 W-h/lit with a discharge current of 2.5 A; the number of the charging-discharge cycles obtained, 6500; the internal resistance, 18 mOhm.
Use of the present invention makes possible attaining the specific energy of the proposed capacitor exceeding several times that of the known DEL capacitors, while the cost thereof is several times lower than that of the known capacitors. The proposed capacitor allows performing series and parallel connections of the elements and to provide on its base various capacitor banks.

Take a leadership role
In response to Wilson Rings article Vt. is gun friendly , I would argue the call for gun control has very much taken hold in Vermont, despite the failure of the governor and the Legislature to act. According to Castleton Polling Institutes February survey, Vermonters support gun control measures, including mental health reporting and closing the gun show loophole.
Parents across Vermont are organizing to keep our kids safe from gun violence. Our movement is growing and is being heard in the Statehouse. There are reasonable middle ground solutions to which both responsible gun owners and concerned parents can agree, including paying closer attention to whom firearms are sold and to how they are stored, but we need more legislators with the courage to stand up to the intimidation of the pro-gun lobby.
Gov. Shumlins position on guns does little justice to the concerns of parents. In fact, he is standing in the way of progress on this issue. Parents across Vermont demand that our state take a leadership role in protecting our kids. It is time to repair the weak link that Vermont has become in efforts to protect citizens from gun violence. Now is the time for Vermont representatives, senators and the governor to help us find the middle ground and to create responsible, meaningful legislation.

Unqualified GOP Presidential hopeful Ben Carson made one of his most reasonable statements when he defended the right of NASCAR fans to fly Confederate flags during races. Well of course he did, since this is the United States and we have a First Amendment. Except to the most ignorant members of the censorious left, this is literally a no-brainer: even brainless Americans should know better than to argue that flying any flag on private property should be prevented by law.
Ah, but special dispensation is due to racist African American progressive bullies. Thus is is that University of Pennsylvania religious studies professor Anthea Butler, wrote "If only there was a 'coon of the year' award …" when responding to a Daily Beast editor's tweet containing a link to a Sports Illustrated article on the issue.
Nice. This is per se denigrating Carson based on race, an ad hominem attack and beyond ugly and irresponsible. Sure, Butler has the same right to say what she wants as anyone, except when it reflects on her employer and suggests, as this tweet does, that she cannot be trusted to teach. Is any African American student who dares to question her political correctness orthodoxy risking being called a "coon" by this woman? I'd say so. She is validating racist rhetoric and modelling intimidation for her students and more importantly, the University of Pennsylvania's students. Is it competent and responsible to employ such a woman? No. Is this within the acceptable range of "academic freedom"? Denigration on the basis of color? I want to hear a university spokesperson admit that, and then to stand up for the first white student who calls the professor a "coon." Continue reading

Paterson Aide Charged With Assault
Bronx prosecutors on Thursday charged a senior aide to Gov. David Paterson with misdemeanor assault in connection with a domestic-dispute scandal that helped bring an abrupt end to Mr. Paterson's candidacy for a full term.
David Johnson, a close confidant of Mr. Paterson, surrendered Thursday morning, entering a plea of not guilty. Mr. Johnson was charged with third-degree assault and several other misdemeanor offenses.
The charges stem from a Halloween dispute between Mr. Johnson and his then-girlfriend, Sherr-una Booker at her Bronx apartment. She alleged that he violently tore off her costume before storming away when she called 911.
Allegations that Mr. Paterson and high-ranking state troopers inappropriately intervened on behalf of Mr. Johnson led to an investigation by state Attorney General Andrew Cuomo, who later turned over the case to an independent counsel, Judith Kaye, a former chief judge of New York.
Mr. Paterson withdrew his candidacy for governor in February after reports in the New York Times suggested that he may have pressured Ms. Booker into dropping her pursuit of a protection order against Mr. Johnson.
A former driver for Mr. Paterson, Mr. Johnson over time was drawn into his inner circle, acting as a gatekeeper and confidant of the governor, who is legally blind.
Mr. Johnson's lawyer, Oscar Michelen, said his client was "disappointed" by the charges and wants to "move forward."
"Ms. Booker hopes she's a step closer to getting justice for what David Johnson did to her," said Ms. Booker's attorney, Kenneth Thompson.
Ms. Booker alleged that Mr. Johnson squeezed her neck to the point of lifting her from the floor, according to the prosecutors' criminal complaint. She says Mr. Johnson threatened to kill her as she tried to call the police.
In a report released last month, Ms. Kaye ultimately concluded that Mr. Paterson, another senior aide, and the head of the governor's security detail committed "errors of judgment" in their panicked response to Ms. Booker's allegations, but concluded that their actions did not rise to the level of a crime.
She found, though, that Ms. Booker's allegations against Mr. Johnson warrant "consideration of possible charges."
Invoking the Fifth Amendment, Mr. Johnson refused to answer questions or cooperate with Ms. Kaye's investigation.
Mr. Paterson suspended Mr. Johnson without pay in February. A spokesman for the governor on Thursday said his employment status had not changed.
New York City police officers who responded to the Halloween incident said they saw no visible injuries and classified the confrontation as harassment, a violation. They did not advise Ms. Booker that she could pursue criminal charges, according to Ms. Kaye's report..
After the officers left, Ms. Booker went to a hospital, where she was treated, the report said.
Ms. Booker said bruises appeared on her arms hours after her fight with Mr. Johnson.
The police officers said they did not see any visible injuries, telling Ms. Booker they could not arrest Mr. Johnson without more evidence of a violent confrontation, Ms. Kaye's report stated..
For weeks, Ms. Booker sought an order of protection against Mr. Johnson in Family Court. She told a judge that state troopers had been "harassing" her to "drop the charges."
Ms. Booker allowed a temporary order of protection to expire in February, later telling investigators she no longer perceived Mr. Johnson as a threat.

Whereas the majority of what you'll see on my stream is art, my greatest passion is reserved for my King. He is my Father, my Savior, my Lover, my Foundation, my Creator, and my God. Ask me about Him, I've more to tell you about Him than what'll fit on the page - and I hate to babble. But that's my King, I wonder if you know Him?
Beyond that, I'm a pretty darn complicated person, so to learn more you'll just have to get to know me, now won't ya'?

"Where should I start the good things about him? hmmm. Lets start off by saying that he is an amazing builder. The presentation of his MOC's are amazing and it just boosts the awesomeness of each one of his MOC's. Another thing that must be mentioned is that he is an amazing and manly person. Zeessi is someone that you can go to for pretty much anything and you will always get very good advice from him. Zeessi is a strong believer in Christ and is not afraid to say so. He is a great person to look up to and people can learn a thing or two from him.

Since research shows primetime TV is losing young male viewers, companies like Puma and Motorola are turning to video games and "advergames," games solely created for product placement, to reach that audience. Nielsen Entertainment is already testing a system to monitor game advertising and analysts expect advertisers to spend up to $1 billion dollars on in-game advertising in the next five years.

LUNELLE™ Monthly Contraceptive Injection contains medroxyprogesterone acetate and estradiol cypionate as its active ingredients.
LUNELLE™ Monthly Contraceptive Injection is indicated for the prevention of pregnancy.
The efficacy of LUNELLE™ Monthly Contraceptive Injection is dependent on adherence to the recommended dosage schedule (e.g., intramuscular injections every 28 to 30 days, not to exceed 33 days). To ensure that LUNELLE™ Monthly Contraceptive Injection is not administered inadvertently to a pregnant woman, the first injection should be given during the first 5 days of a normal menstrual period. LUNELLE™ Monthly Contraceptive Injection should be administered no earlier than 4 weeks after delivery if not breastfeeding or 6 weeks after delivery if breastfeeding (see NURSING MOTHERS).
Animal birth control: Long-term contraception in a single shot Source: Fertility News From Medical News Today [2015.10.07]Caltech biologists have developed a nonsurgical method to deliver long-term contraception to both male and female animals with a single shot.
Domestic violence deters contraception Source: Abortion News From Medical News Today [2015.04.02]Domestic violence takes many forms. The control of a woman's reproductive choices by her partner is one of them.
'15 million unwanted pregnancies' created by low contraception in 35 poorer countries Source: Abortion News From Medical News Today [2015.02.05]Some 90% of the 16.7 million unwanted pregnancies across a third of the world's population every year are due to a failure to use modern contraception, study suggests.
Research reveals more than half of young women who have abortions were using contraception when they fell pregnant Source: Abortion News From Medical News Today [2014.04.30]Reproductive health charity Marie Stopes UK has launched the findings of the first research in the UK into the contraceptive use of women aged 16-24 having one or more abortions.

Effects of percutaneous estradiol-oral progesterone versus oral conjugated equine estrogens-medroxyprogesterone acetate on breast cell proliferation and bcl-2 protein in healthy women. [2011.03.01]In a prospective, randomized clinical study 77 women were assigned randomly to receive sequential hormone therapy with either conventional oral conjugated equine estrogens (0.625 mg) with the addition on 14 of the 28 days of oral medroxyprogesterone acetate (5 mg) or natural E(2) gel (1.5 mg) with oral micronized P (200 mg) on 14 of the 28 days of each cycle.
Effects of either tibolone or continuous combined transdermal estradiol with medroxyprogesterone acetate on coagulatory factors and lipoprotein(a) in menopause. [2009]BACKGROUND/AIM: The aim of this prospective controlled study was to compare the effects of two therapies for menopause on factor VII (FVII) and hemostatic variables... CONCLUSION: Our results show that tibolone induces a significant reduction in FVIIc and Lp(a) and a greater enhancement of factors promoting fibrinolysis than the TTS E2/MPA regimen.
Effects in postmenopausal women of estradiol and medroxyprogesterone alone and combined on resistance artery function and endothelial morphology and movement. [2008.05]CONTEXT: Endothelial dysfunction in resistance arteries after menopause is important for the development of high blood pressure and cardiovascular disease. OBJECTIVES: Our objectives were to study the effects of different hormone replacement therapies on the function and morphology of isolated resistance arteries, and to look for their mechanistic basis... CONCLUSIONS: This study suggests that hormone replacement therapy with estrogens or in combination with MPA may benefit the function of resistance arteries and may preserve the morphological integrity of endothelial cells by regulatory actions on the cytoskeleton.
Synchronization of follicular wave emergence in the seasonally anestrous ewe: the effects of estradiol with or without medroxyprogesterone acetate. [2008.04.15]Fertility is often lower in anestrous compared to cyclic ewes, after conventional estrus synchronization. We hypothesized that synchronization of ovarian follicular waves and ovulation could improve fertility at controlled breeding in anestrous ewes... All ewes given eCG ovulated 3-4d after injection; this predictable time of ovulation may be efficacious for AI and embryo transfer.
Estrogen, medroxyprogesterone acetate, endothelial function, and biomarkers of cardiovascular risk in young women. [2008.04]Medroxyprogesterone acetate (MPA) is widely known for its use in combination hormone therapy for postmenopausal women.

Brewers 4, Twins 1
MILWAUKEE (AP)—Ben Sheets showed why he anchors the Brewers' pitching staff.
Sheets pitched four-hit ball for six innings and Chad Moeller homered Friday night in Milwaukee's 4-1 victory over the Minnesota Twins. Sheets (6-4) improved to 4-0 after a Milwaukee loss, and the Brewers are 9-5 overall in his 14 starts.
"You hate to put so much pressure on your No. 1 guy, but that's his job, to be the stopper of the staff," manager Ned Yost said.
Keith Ginter drove in two runs, and Brady Clark had an RBI single for the Brewers, who snapped Minnesota's three-game winning streak. The AL Central-leading Twins lost for only the third time in 11 games.
"Not a very good game for us offensively," manager Ron Gardenhire said. "I think Mr. Sheets had something to do with that."
The Twins landed in Milwaukee at 2 a.m. after rallying to beat the Expos 6-4 Thursday night for a three-game sweep in Montreal.
Torii Hunter, who had a hit and a walk and struck out looking, said the late flight had little to do with the outcome.
"When you play the game, the second wind comes up," Hunter said. "Sheets, he was pretty good tonight. His curveball was unbelievable."
Sheets allowed only one hit through the first four innings—Hunter's double in the second.
Minnesota pushed across a run with one out in the fifth.
Hunter walked, went to third on Jacque Jones' single and scored on Luis Rivas' single. After pinch-hitter Jose Offerman popped out, Cristian Guzman took a called third strike.
"We had one shot in the fifth inning, but he got out of it," Gardenhire said.
Sheets, who struck out six and walked two, worked a scoreless sixth before Ben Grieve pinch-hit for him in the bottom half.
Sheets had only one complaint—his fielding miscue in the sixth.
With two outs, Corey Koskie lined a pitch right back at Sheets. He rolled out of the way, but the ball still hit him. He picked it up and threw from his knees, but the ball sailed over the head of first baseman Lyle Overbay. Sheets slapped the ground after the runner reached safely on what was ruled a hit.
"It's embarrassing, really frustrating," he said. "That should be an out. I ducked out of the way, but still after the ball hit me, I still have to make the play."
Jeff Bennett pitched two perfect innings before Danny Kolb worked the ninth for his 20th save in 21 chances, finishing the five-hitter.
"Their bullpen came in and did a great job," Gardenhire said.
The Brewers helped Sheets out right away by scoring two runs off Carlos Silva (7-4) with two outs in the first inning.
Geoff Jenkins reached on a fielder's choice, advanced on Overbay's single and scored on Clark's single. Overbay came home on Ginter's single, the third consecutive hit off Silva.
Moeller gave Sheets a 3-0 lead in the third when he hit the first pitch from Silva for a solo homer, his third of the season.
Silva, who went at least seven innings in each of his previous three starts, gave up three runs and eight hits in four innings. He walked two and struck out one.
Ginter was hit by a pitch from Grant Balfour with the bases loaded in theseventh, forcing in another run.
The Brewers signed 18-year-old pitcher Mark Rogers, their top pick in the 2004 draft and the fifth choice overall. The 6-foot-2, 200-pound right-hander graduates this weekend from Mt. Ararat High School in Orr's Island, Maine. He heads to the Brewers' rookie team in the Arizona League next week. … The Brewers are 5-2 in interleague play this season. The Twins are 7-3. … Overbay's first-inning single extended his hitting streak to 15 games. … Minnesota's Lew Ford extended his career-high hitting streak to 11 gameswith an infield single in the ninth.

Documents: Men arrested in Vt. plotted to kill Justin BieberThe Associated Press | December 13,2012AP File Photo
Justin Bieber accepts the award for favorite album - pop/rock for "Believe" at the 40th Anniversary American Music Awards, in Los Angeles. The Los Angeles City Attorney's Office appealed on Wednesday, a criminal court judge's ruling tossing anti-paparazzi counts against a photographer charged with driving recklessly in pursuit of Bieber.LAS CRUCES, N.M. - An imprisoned man whose infatuation with Justin Bieber included a tattoo of the pop star on his leg has told investigators in New Mexico he hatched a plot to kill him.
Court documents in a New Mexico district court say Dana Martin told investigators he persuaded a man he met in prison and the man's nephew to kill Bieber, Bieber's bodyguard and two others not connected to the pop star.
He told investigators that Mark Staake and Tanner Ruane headed east, planning to be near a Bieber concert scheduled in New York City. They missed a turn and crossed into Canada from Vermont. Staake was arrested on an outstanding warrant. Ruane was arrested later.
The two men face multiple charges stemming for the alleged plot.MORE IN This Just In

Hey, I'm Bee!
I am 24 years old, work full time in HR/ Recruitment and have done so consistently for the last 5 years. I am bubbly, kind, considerate, artistic and caring. I won the state prize back in 2007 for my artworks (watercolour paintings) and have had a passion for art since I was a child. I have rented properties in the past and have always paid my rent in advance and had all bonds refunded in full. I am respectful to property and others and hold myself accountable. I have been with my partner Alex for 3 years and we aspire to marry in the next two or three years. We are both mature beyond our age or how I'd describe as 'old souls'. We have both spent a majority of our lives being dedicated to our immediate families and felt it is time to take a break & do something once in a while just for ourselves. We look forward to your response and are happy to provide further details if required. We look forward to meeting you & our stay in LA :)

PlayStation Network Down For The Count
by Josh Lovison on Apr 29, 1:15 PM
The other month when I wrote the article "If You Can't Beat Them, Invite Them In" about Sony's response to PlayStation hackers, I wasn't being as literal as Sony seems to have been. In what is anticipated to be the second largest exposure of consumer data from a corporate network breach, Sony's PlayStation Network has been hacked, and is down for the count.

At the recent MI6 Game Marketing Conference, EA Sports honcho Peter Moore issued a challenge to competitors in the world of social games, including market leader Zynga. EA Sports is planning on dominating Facebook, leveraging its stable of existing properties like Madden Football and FIFA Soccer, two of the dominant sports franchises in the gaming world. "There's a big dog in front of us," he said. "But we aren't far behind, and we're confident that we can catch up. What we can bring to the market in terms of blue-chip IP is phenomenal."

Fearing Canada: Is Google Our Last Hope?
by Josh Lovison on Apr 1, 3:15 PM
Digital entertainment, gaming included, would seem to be entering a golden age. Access, usage, diversity of content and audiences, sound financial models -- all of these things should be taking us to a nirvana of sorts, populated by iPads, flat-screen TVs and advanced set-top boxes, and smartphones. There's just one problem. The foundation of our digital paradise has been built on a swamp.

Dojo: the JavaScript Toolkit with Industrial-Strength Mojo
This remainder of this article works through the bulk of the toolkit's most fundamental JavaScript programming constructs that will benefit you regardless of the size or scope of your project.
The Firebug add-on for Mozilla Firefox is a terrific tool that can benefit your Web development efforts in ways you can't even imagine. Of particular interest is its console, which allows you to execute arbitrary JavaScript code—a great advantage when learning a new technology, as you'll commonly want to test out new ideas in an interactive fashion.
Although you could download Dojo from its official Web presence and set up a local installation, the easiest way to get started with Dojo is to use the latest version of Dojo that is hosted on AOL's Content Delivery Network (CDN). The following page skeleton demonstrates that the minimal effort required to put Dojo to work from the CDN is a SCRIPT tag that loads Dojo into the HEAD of the page; it is especially noteworthy that the SCRIPT tag incurs the cost of one request to the Web server that delivers a gzipped payload of approximately 29kB and provides the latest 1.1.x release that is available. In Dojo parlance, the good that the SCRIPT tag provides is called Base, because it provides the base for the toolkit, and because everything you'll use is contained in the base-level dojo.* namespace. Speaking of which, with the exception of the dojo identifier itself, the global page-level namespace is otherwise preserved:
To summarize, the dojo.addOnLoad block fires once the asynchronous loading of the dojo.xd.js file and any dependencies specified via dojo.require statements (more on these in a bit) have completed, and this is necessary in order to prevent any race conditions that might occur without it. Basically, the dojo.xd.js file providing Base accomplishes feats such as normalizing DOM events and provides you with a number of useful utilities for accelerating application development.
