West Virginia needs a coach and Terry Bowden likes the idea of making a return to coaching in his hometown.
Bowden, who grew up in Morgantown when his father, Bobby, was the Mountaineers' coach and played at West Virginia, has been out of coaching since 1998. Not long after Rich Rodriguez left the Mountaineers to take the Michigan job, Bowden, a former Auburn coach, let it be known he is interested in the West Virginia vacancy.
"I made a full commitment to get back into coaching almost two years ago. Coming home to West Virginia would obviously be the dream job for me," said Bowden, a college football analyst.
Bowden wouldn't say whether he's been in contact with the Mountaineers since Sunday, when it was announced Rodriguez was going to Michigan.
West Virginia athletic director Ed Pastilong must first find an interim coach to lead West Virginia in the Fiesta Bowl on Jan. 2 against Oklahoma.
Also being mentioned as candidates are Virginia Tech defensive coordinator Bud Foster and Florida State offensive coordinator Jimbo Fisher. But Fisher has a $2.5 million buyout clause in his contract if he leaves Florida State before Jan. 9, 2011, after agreeing to be FSU's "head coach-in-waiting."
Pelini announces staff.
While looking to the future at Nebraska, new Huskers coach Bo Pelini turned to the past to select his staff.
Four former Frank Solich staffers are returning to Lincoln — Ron Brown (tight ends), Barney Cotton (offensive line), Marvin Sanders (secondary) and Pelini's older brother, Carl Pelini (defensive coordinator).
Former Colorado assistants Shawn Watson (offensive coordinator) and Ted Gilmore (receivers) are holdovers from Bill Callahan's staff.
Mike Ekeler (linebackers) and John Papuchis (defensive ends), who both served under Pelini at LSU, also were selected.
Missouri receiver suspended.
Missouri reserve receiver Greg Bracey has been suspended for disciplinary reasons and will not play in the Cotton Bowl against Arkansas.
Bracey, who caught three passes for 53 yards this season, was arrested Friday morning on suspicion of driving while intoxicated, possession of less than 35 grams of marijuana and failure to signal a turn, the Columbia Daily Tribune reported.
Kelly, Cincy agree to extension.
Cincinnati coach Brian Kelly agreed to terms on a new five-year contract.
The new deal voids the remaining four years on Kelly's current contract. He'll receive a guaranteed salary between $1.2 million and $1.35 million over the next five years as well as performance-based incentives, the school said.
Coker in mix for SMU job.
Former Miami coach Larry Coker interviewed to succeed the fired Phil Bennett as the coach of SMU, according to an ESPN broadcast.

Great Lakes freighter & Coast Guard rescue-Lake Superior
Yesterday afternoon this footage was taken as a U.S. Coast Guard helicopter hovered over the iron ore carrier, S/S American Valor. A crew member had taken ill and while close to the shoreline of Manitou Island, on Lake Superior, his fellow crew members safely loaded him into the rescue basket and off he flew. I took this footage, my name is Ed Spicuzza and I work in the engine room as an Oiler. As an extream hobbiest I take my photo and video equipment, along with my portable studio, where I travel. I made this video for the crew but if you at CNN would like the unedited footage with a possible story of interest plese give me a call at. Currently we are heading into a iron ore dock in the Duluth MN area and I should be in range for the remainder of the afternoon. Thank you for your time, Ed Spicuzza www.nauticaljourney.com email@example.com

Precision Measurement of Detonation Velocities in Liquid and Solid Explosives27(1956); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1715639View Description Hide Description
A versatile chronographic technique for the measurement of detonation velocities in liquid and solid explosives is discussed. A raster‐type oscilloscope is described which has a sweep linearity of 1% and a time coverage of 300 μsec. This instrument is composed of standard electronic components and requires relatively little maintenance. The basic signal mixing circuits used to generate fast‐rising pulses associated with the detonation of an explosive charge are briefly described. Some electrical effects associated with the detonation of an explosive charge are briefly described to point out a possible source of spurious signals. Techniques for the preparation and assembly of explosive charges are presented together with certain precautions which must be taken against the possibility of the generation of false signals. The effect of temperature on detonation velocities of liquid and solid explosives is mentioned. Using the techniques and precautions described, it is possible to obtain detonation velocity data with a precision of 0.1% or better.
``Glo‐Ball'' Development27(1956); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1715640View Description Hide Description
The term ``glo‐ball'' is used to designate a small, thin‐walled, partially evacuated glass sphere containing helium, used for investigating electric field distributions in rf resonant cavities. Ionization, or firing, of the gas in the glo‐ball indicates a given potential gradient across it; in field investigations a monitoring loop is used to record the voltage required in the cavity to produce this ionization. Glo‐balls were developed specifically for their application to linear accelerators.
Experiments were conducted to provide a method of making glo‐balls, under controlled conditions with known constituents, that would have a stable and relatively low firing gradient.
Factors associated with the making of a glo‐ball were determined, and a spectroscopicanalysis identified the gas components. It is now possible to make a ball that fires at a minimum voltage gradient with excellent stability. Other characteristics of the glo‐ball pertinent to its use as a field‐measuring device were investigated.
Calculator for Some rf Problems in Accelerator Design27(1956); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1715641View Description Hide Description
A simple mechanical calculator has been developed for solving the transmission line equations when the characteristic impedance is a variable. The speed of computation is some two orders of magnitude faster than analytical methods. The theoretical basis is described and also the way in which it can be used. Some representative problems, which have benefited by use of the calculator, are discussed.
Use of Servomechanisms in the Compensation of a 70‐Mv X‐Ray Beam27(1956); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1715642View Description Hide Description
The naturally peaked x‐ray beam from the 70‐Mev synchrotron has been collimated and compensated to flatness by differential absorption in a copper filter. Angulation of the synchrotron magnet produces a shift of the filter support with respect to the x‐ray beam, thus altering the compensation achieved before angulation. This paper contains a description of a system of two servomechanisms which senses the change in compensation and provides correcting motions to restore proper filter position. Particular emphasis is given to items of technique which contributed to the success of this development.
Nonlinear Response of NaI(Tl) to Photons27(1956); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1715643View Description Hide Description
A study of the response of the sodium iodide scintillation counter to photons in the energy range from 10 to 1500 kev has shown the presence of a significant nonlinearity. Response curves are given for a number of crystals of different dimensions.
Nonlinear Amplifier Design for Pulse‐Height Analyzers27(1956); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1715644View Description Hide Description
The ratio of maximum to minimum pulse sizes which can be simultaneously recorded by a kick sorter is limited by the curvature of the characteristic of its biased amplifier over a finite region of input potentials. The extent of this region can be reduced from a few volts to about 10 millivolts by including the nonlinear elements of the amplifier in its negative feedback loop. An amplifier is described which embodies this principle and also provides a discriminator and gate circuit.
Recording Magnetic‐Resonance Spectrometer27(1956); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1715645View Description Hide Description
Apparatus especially designed for studying electron paramagnetic resonance is described and discussed. A magnet of novel yokeless design is presented. Field stabilization and modulation procedure is considered. The microwave sample cavity is analyzed to determine conditions for optimum operation. The klystron stabilization problem is examined. Appropriate lumped circuits for low‐frequency operation are described. The signal amplification and presentation system is treated in detail.
Recording Decay of Electron Density in Ionized Gases27(1956); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1715646View Description Hide Description
This paper describes a method for the measurement and photographic recording of electron density loss in an ionized gas utilizing a microwave system operating near 9400 Mc. The region between initial density level (upon removal of a 24.5‐Mc ionizing voltage) and 500 μsec later was investigated. Examples of results obtained for commercial neon using this method of measurement are included. In general, it was observed that for commerical neon 90% of the electron density loss occurred within the first 250 μsec after removal of the ionizing voltage. The equipment used along with photographs of the arrangment, and the results obtained are discussed briefly.
Filamentary Subminiature Scalers27(1956); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1715647View Description Hide Description
In order to reduce the power requirements and heat dissipation in multichannel pulse‐height analyzers with parallel digital storage, we have devised and tested a low‐wattage scale‐of‐two employing filamentary subminiature tubes. These units are designed for use in scales of 16 or 32 and exhibit great reliability and long life. The resolving time is 5 μsec with grid‐catching diodes and 13 μsec unaided. For greater reliability in very long cascades and for battery operation, a Higinbotham version has been devised. Both designs promise extremely long life and may be useful wherever bistable switching circuits are used.
Apparatus for Friction Studies at High Vacuum27(1956); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1715648View Description Hide Description
A friction test apparatus has been developed which permits accurate measurements under high vacuum. Sliding motion inside the vacuum chamber is accomplished by magnetic coupling through the chamber wall. The lag angle between the magnets, observed by means of stroboscopic illumination, measures the friction.Calibration of the magnetic coupling is obtained from the period of oscillation of the driven magnet with respect to the driving magnet.
Control and Measurement of an Ion Source of a Pressure Insulated Van de Graaff Generator27(1956); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1715649View Description Hide Description
A very simple method has been developed for the control and measurement of an ion source in the top terminal of a high pressure insulated Van de Graaff generator. The sending and receiving of information from the outside of the tank to the high voltage (h.v.) electrode is achieved by means of light signals.
Light Shifter for Čerenkov Radiation27(1956); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1715650View Description Hide Description
Measurements are reported of the use of luminescent materials as a light shifter for Čerenkov radiation, with the object of increasing the pulse height from Čerenkov light observed by a photomultiplier tube. By this process the directional properties of the Čerenkov light are essentially lost.
Neutron Reflecting Mirrors for Determining Coherent Scattering Cross Sections27(1956); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1715651View Description Hide Description
Mirrors suitable for determining coherent cross sections by the neutron reflection technique are prepared by evaporating a sample on a flat electrochemically polished vanadium plate. Samples of separated isotopes as small as 20 mg may be used.
Adiabatic Specific Heat Calorimeter for the Temperature Range 4 to 15°K27(1956); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1715652View Description Hide Description
An adiabatic specific heatcalorimeter bridging the interval between liquid helium and liquid hydrogen temperatures is described. The instrument uses a constant volume helium gas thermometer as the working thermometer. The sample is placed directly in the gas thermometer bulb which thus acts as a sample container. The use of the calorimeter is restricted to bulk samples with low surfaces areas.
Microscope for Large Nuclear Plates27(1956); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1715653View Description Hide Description
A precision microscope which may be used with all sizes of nuclear plates up to 10×16 in. has been constructed. Its simplicity of construction, and flexibility and ease of use recommend its general design.
Absolute Method for Sound Intensity Measurement27(1956); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1715654View Description Hide Description
Since sound propagation is an adiabatic process, a temperature fluctuation accompanies the sound wave in media for which the specific heat ratio is greater than unity. If the equation of state and the sound field are known, this temperature fluctuation may be related to the intensity of the sound wave.
A thermometer capable of measuring fast, small‐amplitude temperature variations is described. Its output is calculated for the case of plane, sinusoidal sound waves in an ideal gas. Its use as a microphone and sound intensity meter is then considered.
Photometric Ionization Measurements in a Multiplate Cloud Chamber27(1956); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1715655View Description Hide Description
A method has been developed for determining photometrically the ionization of multiplate cloud chamber tracks. A simple, projection type of photometer is used to measure the track opacity, from which the ionization of the track is obtained by comparison with the opacity of a track of known ionization. The ratio of the properly normalized opacities of the two tracks is related to the ratio of their ionizations by a simple power law. The technique has been employed, with geometric residual range determinations, to find particle masses. It also has been used, when the mass is known, to ascertain the residual range in the plate in which a particle stops. By determining both the ionization and the change in ionization occurring in a plate traversal, both the mass and the residual range of particles have been found. Specific applications include a determination of the range of the secondaries from K μ2 and K π2 decays, and a measurement of the mass of a particle which releases more than 1.6 Bev on stopping. The latter is found to have a mass consistent with its being an antiproton.
Mass Synchrometer27(1956); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1715656View Description Hide Description
A novel mass spectrometer with which masses of ions are determined in terms of high harmonics of their cyclotron frequencies is described from both experimental and theoretical viewpoints. Half‐width resolution is adjustable electrically over a range of values presently between 10 000 and 25 000 at all mass numbers below 250. By means of a highly precise technique of matching peaks, relative doublet separations in frequency (Δf/f) exactly equal to those in mass (ΔM/M) are determined with great ease and accuracy on a ratio scaler. Masses have been determined with an accuracy of better than one part in 107, which is comparable with the best yielded by conventional instruments. Measurements should be of particular importance, even if of no greater precision than others, because the very different techniques employed make unlikely the occurrence of unsuspected systematic errors of the same nature as in other work. Sources of systematic error are discussed. It is believed that most of these have been eliminated, though avoidance of the not uncommon errors caused by differences in orbit distributions in doublets involving ions formed by dissociation has so far led to such large reductions of intensity as to restrict greatly the number of such important doublets for which reliable data have been obtainable. The synchrometer is apparently at a disadvantage to some deflection‐type spectrometers in the matter of intensity, to some extent in principle and to a greater extent (to date) in practice. This disadvantage is enhanced by the difficulties of using an electron multiplier for detecting ions in strong magnetic fields. It is believed that the latter difficulties are not insuperable and it seems reasonable to expect that further work on increasing the intensity and improving the focusing of ions from the source will greatly enhance the number of results obtained. The possibilities of using the instrument for analytical purposes are interesting but so far largely unexplored.

Presidential historian marks Presidents Day with Bijou show
Thomas Jefferson recognized the value of sociability in politics, and regularly sat down to dinner with members of Congress, presidential biographer and author Jon Meacham explained ahead of his Presidents Day appearance at the Bijou Theatre.
"He believed you have to have dinner with them if you ever hoped they would be with you when there was a crisis," said the author of "Thomas Jefferson: The Art of Power," during a preshow dinner for VIP guests that was peppered with local elected officials and politicos.
As such, Jefferson found he could make great political headway within the civility of a social setting.
"The good politician is the one who asks you while you're here so beware tonight," Meacham said.
The author may have been on to something — a few of those who made the event confessed in confidence that they'd yet to actually read any of his books. They were, however, the exception.
Tickets for "A Presidential Conversation with Jon Meacham," presented by the East Tennessee Historical Society and the Knox County Public Library, sold out shortly after they went on sale last month.
A former editor of Newsweek, one-time co-anchor of "Need to Know" on PBS and native Tennessean, Meacham also authored, "American Lion: Andrew Jackson in the White House," which won the Pulitzer Prize in 2009.
"He was able to engage my interest in these historical figures as real people," said Jim Hart, president of Friends of the Smokies. "He made them interesting."
Also among his fans Monday night was Gov. Bill Haslam, who introduced Meacham at the Bijou and, in a friendly turn of the tables, interviewed the journalist for the VIP dinner crowd.
Haslam (who has read all four of Meacham's books) asked what sort of message people in today's often cynical world can take away from those historical figures.
"There's a moral utility to history," Meacham answered.
It's important to recognize the humanity of those leaders, who were not demigods, he said, but simply human beings who faced enormous challenges.
"They got through it," said Meacham. "Maybe we can, too."

The most common side effects are redness, swelling and tenderness at the injection site, fever, decreased appetite, irritability, increased sleep, and decreased sleep. Only a healthcare provider can decide if Prevnar 13 is appropriate for a given child.
Indication for Prevnar® in the United States
Prevnar is indicated for active immunization of infants and toddlers against serious invasive disease caused by Streptococcus pneumoniae, including bacteremia (bloodstream infection) and meningitis (infection of the membranes surrounding the brain and spinal cord) caused by the seven serotypes in the vaccine. The seven serotypes (strains) of Streptococcus pneumoniae included in the vaccine (4, 6B, 9V, 14, 18C, 19F, and 23F) were the strains that most commonly caused these serious diseases in children prior to the introduction of the vaccine. The routine schedule is 2, 4, 6, and 12-15 months of age.
Prevnar is also indicated for immunization of infants and toddlers against otitis media (ear infections) caused by the seven serotypes in the vaccine. Protection against ear infections is expected to be less than that for invasive disease.
As with any vaccine, Prevnar may not protect all individuals receiving the vaccine from serious invasive disease caused by Streptococcus pneumoniae. This vaccine should not be used for treatment of active infection.
Important Safety Information for Prevnar® in the United States
In clinical studies, the most frequently reported adverse events included injection site reactions, fever (greater than or equal to 38 degrees C/100.4 degrees F), irritability, drowsiness, restless sleep, decreased appetite, vomiting, diarrhea, and rash.

CIRCUS Now

Luciano and His Pound Puppies
Luciano and His Pound Puppies
Follow a bumbling ring master and his bounding, barking pups in an act like no other.
Under the big top, talent barks louder than any candy butcher and second chances are handed out with a smile and one question: Is the act any good? In the circus, re-invention and redemption are as integral to the show as the tent rigging. So, when Luciano Anastasini, a trapeze artist who suffered a career-ending injury in the mid-1990s, approached the Big Apple Circus with a new clown act he'd concocted with a pack of abandoned dogs and a choo-choo train, management smiled, and gave him an audition. Fortunately, Anastasini is as talented a dog trainer and clown as he was an acrobat, and his funny act—"Luciano Anastasini and his Pound Puppies"—was added to the Play On! roster. Anastasini focused on reinventing himself professionally after he fell from the Wheel of Destiny—a large wheel on an axis that rotates and spins much like a hamster wheel, and features a performer doing elaborate tricks in the center. As the seasoned performer recovered physically, he considered his options. Anastasini had always grown up with dogs, and he dreamed up a new act featuring a pack of dogs he rescues from shelters around the nation. Ironically, some of the "bad" traits that landed the pooches in the pound in the first place turn out to be the talent that Anastasini recognizes in them as a great circus trick.
Anastasini trains as many as 15 dogs at one time, all of them rescued animals who show some sort of affinity for performance or agility. He performs his act—along with his wife, Gladis, and two sons—with up to seven dogs in the ring at one time.
This season, Anastasini plays a larger-than-life ringmaster who enters the big top on a miniature train filled with dogs. The more Anastasini tries to get the dogs to follow his orders, the more they act out, besting him at every turn. "The gag is that he plays a buffoon and the dogs have to always win," says Guest Director Steve Smith. "For instance, (Anastasini) will hold up a ring and command the dog to jump through, but the dog will do anything but what he asks it to do."
"(My act) is a comedy, and anything goes out there," says Anastasini. "(With all those dogs in the ring), it looks like chaos, but it's controlled chaos."
Luciano's Pound Puppies
Watch the puppies run the show in this frantic, hilarious act.

In areas across the commonwealth, volunteer rescue agencies are struggling against the perfect storm: a rise in calls for service and a fall in recruitment.
Due to financial strains and federal regulations, it's even harder now than it was several years ago for rescue squads to find volunteers. Though people are willing to sign up, some just don't have the money or the time to complete the necessary training for certification.
"No taxation without representation" was our Founding Fathers' protest cry.
The British government refused to correct the injustices and the protests became more violent and destructive, culminating in our Revolutionary War.
Fast forward to Ferguson, Mo. The population is predominantly African-American while the leadership is largely white; a distinct injustice which is undoubtedly the main underlying cause of the protests.
Young Americans and babies of today will never have or know America, as this government continues turning away and severing ties of any sanity with our American society.
When Castro emptied our his prisons and put some of the most evil, dangerous criminals in the world on boats and sent them in the direction of Florida — and this government sucked this evil in like a vacuum.
Miami until then was a good decent place for Americans to live, to visit and to retire, but this evil changed all that forever.
Editor's note: On March 5, a Galax fire claimed the lives of three children, one at the scene and two who passed away later. Police and firefighters made valiant attempts to rescue the children, without any protective gear, but were overcome by flames and smoke. We share the sentiment expressed in Rick Clark's moving statement, and commend them for their bravery and sacrifice. We wish them well as they cope with the aftermath of this tragedy.
By Rick Clark, chief of the Galax Police Department
A couple of things have gotten me confused lately.
Like this thing with the schools. How'd they end up short on money?
I recall a couple years back, shutting down schools and building a new one out in the country was going to fix that shortfall. Dragging kids out before dawn and bussing them all over the place made fiscal sense.
So how come now there's all this fussing over giving teachers a raise and docking students for not showing up?
You have to wonder what Pine Creek District Supervisor Bob Martin was thinking when he nominated Billy Mitchell to serve on the Planning Commission last month.
Mitchell, a former county administrator, was convicted 17 years ago for embezzling more than $400,000 from the Carroll and served time in federal prison.
Martin has gone on record with his belief that Mitchell has been paying his dues and deserves a second chance.
I've been hearing a bunch of cloudy claptrap from our Grayson County supervisors about "job creation." I have problems with their claim.
The supervisors are not hiring or paying anybody.
Recently they have been taking credit for decisions by three business firms which allegedly will locate in Grayson County (at undisclosed dates) and hire 300 people.
In light of recent low-wage earner strikes, there should be a book titled "How to Treat Employees for Dummies."
Highlights would read something like this.
First, remember that employees are as vital to your business as the customer is. And that the employee stands "between" you and your customer.
So the employee can make your customers happy, or they can make them very sad. And without your customers, you're out of business. So it's in your best interest to have "happy" employees. And how do you do that?

Paging Through: Mysteries
My parents are snowbirds (when the snow flies, so do they) so they often read this column after it has run. They've recently returned to their Brookfield nest, and my mom wasted no time influencing this month's recommendations. After finishing Susan Elia MacNeal's "His Majesty's Hope" (Bantam, $15), the third in an engrossing WWII series, my mom said, "You need to recommend this and the author needs to write faster."
Maggie Hope, the series hero, has dreamed of becoming a spy ever since she was a "typist to Prime Minister Winston Churchill" and then a "maths tutor to the Princess Elizabeth" at Windsor. As the Nazis tighten their grip across Europe, Maggie gets her chance. Thanks to her secret training (including lessons from a "Glaswegian safecracker"), her keen intelligence with codes, and her "big stones" (as the Brits say), Maggie is recruited to an elite group of spies to infiltrate the offices of the Nazi hierarchy. »Read Full Article

But more companies like Girl Scouts USA, Hershey Co. and Kraft Foods say their products are safe
FRIDAY, Jan. 23 (HealthDay News) -- An estimated 31 million pounds of peanut butter and peanut paste products have been recalled in the ongoing salmonella contamination scare, the Associated Press reported Friday.
As the number of people sickened in the salmonella outbreak approaches 500 in 43 states and Canada, U.S. health officials gave more detail on the scope of the outbreak that has been traced to a now-closed production plant in Blakely, Ga., owned by Peanut Corp. of America.
Peanut Corp. sells its peanut butter and peanut paste in bulk containers. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration reported Thursday on its Web site that its investigation has determined that Peanut Corp. distributed potentially contaminated products to more than 70 firms, "for use as an ingredient in hundreds of different products, such as cookies, crackers, cereal, candy and ice cream."
Jars of peanut butter on store shelves appear to be safe, the agency said.
But products made with peanut butter or peanut paste continued to disappear from store shelves this week, as more than 35 major food producers, retail companies, specialty companies and pet food suppliers issued precautionary recalls.
There is also a growing list of companies reporting that their products containing peanut butter are safe. The Girl Scouts of the USA, the Hershey Co. and Kraft Foods Inc. are telling consumers their foods haven't been affected by the salmonella scare, the New York Daily News reported Friday.
In addition, ConAgra, which was involved in a major Peter Pan brand salmonella recall two years ago, as well as J. M. Smucker, of Orville, Ohio, and Russell Stover Candies Inc. also reported their products were safe.
"We're getting lots of calls," said Michelle L. Tompkins, a spokeswoman for Girl Scouts USA.

Although researchers did not find a cut-off point below which women could not get pregnant, IVF success rates dropped substantially as AMH levels declined. Among the study participants who had AMH levels below 0.2 ng/ml, 53 IVF cycles resulted in only 18 embryo transfers and the birth of three children.
The study found reason for optimism among women who have polycystic ovary syndrome, a condition normally associated with ovulation problems. Women who have this condition tend to have high AMH levels.
"Our data suggests women who have polycystic ovaries are likely to be good candidates for IVF," Brodin said. "Along with high AMH levels, this group tends to have a significant supply of eggs remaining in the ovaries."

Two decades of Miatas
Guinness World Records has certified the Miata as the world's highest production two-seat open-top sports car, with more than 800,000 built.

Don't look now, but Mazda's fresh-faced little Miata has been with us 20 years now. To celebrate, Miata enthusiasts from around the world are expected to congregate in Grapevine, Texas, this May 22-25 for Miata World II, a Memorial Day weekend event devoted to one of the most beloved roadsters of all time.
Hosted by the Lone Star Miata Club, Miata World II includes three different track events at the nearby Texas Motor Speedway, vendor spaces, three evenings of banquets, rallies and drives, a concours and more. Registration, which includes admission, all driving events and all meals, is $300 per person. If you're planning to go, you'll want to register right away, because the organizers say that the fee will go up by some unspecified amount on February 1. Registration also entitles you to a chance to win a 2010 MX-5 Miata.
For more information about the event, visit www.miataworldii.com. If Texas is just too far from where you live, you can check with Miata clubs in your region to see if any 20th anniversary celebrations are scheduled; a full list is available at www.miata.net.

Mazda unveils Prestige Edition Miata
Black leather seats and 17-inch BBS alloy wheels help differentiate the Prestige Edition from other Miatas.
photo courtesy Mazda
Since its introduction in 1990, Mazda's lovable Miata, also known as the MX-5, has been produced in a dizzying array of special editions and limited editions, starting with the British Racing Green Special Edition of 1991.
Remember the Montego Blue Mica M-Edition of 1994, the Marina Green Mica of 1997, and the Blazing Yellow Mica Special Edition of 2002? Well, Mazda is at it again. The company has just launched the Prestige Edition for the Japanese domestic market.
Based on the top-level MX-5, known in Japan as the Roadster, the new Prestige Edition includes heated seats with black genuine leather upholstery and special, 17-inch alloy wheels made by BBS Japan Co. Ltd. Other premium features include stainless steel scuff plates and front foglights. Six-speed, automatic-shift cars will also get a front strut tower bar, which is standard on the stick-shift cars, and Mazda's Dynamic Stability Control.
The Prestige Edition is on sale at Mazda and Mazda Anfini dealerships across Japan, priced at 2,950,000 yen (about $25,000 U.S.) for the six-speed manual transmission model and 3,050,000 yen ($26,000) for the six-speed automatic transmission model. The new edition will be available in a range of seven colors, which is certain to complicate the lives of future collectors as they try to keep all of the special- and limited-edition cars straight.
They'll have their hands full — by our count, there have been about 80 variants offered for sale around the world.

High-miles Miata
Lots of folks know about Irv Gordon and his 2.5-plus-million-mile Volvo
P1800S, which is solidly holding its place in the record books as the
highest mileage passenger car on Earth.
If any car has a shot at breaking that record, it's probably a Mazda Miata, a sports car that, like the Volvo, is both fun to drive and nearly unbreakable. The enthusiasts at www.miata.net are trying to find the highest-mileage Miata — so far, they
know of one car with 436,000 miles that was used on a 100-mile daily
commute for several years, and have a photo of another odometer showing
928,000, although they have their doubts about the authenticity of that
If you own or know of a Miata with more than 450,000 miles on the
clock, send Miata.net an e-mail, with corroborating photo attached.

finally, a car show class that we could win
What car show has a category for "Student Beaters?" It's the Georgia Tech Car Show, coming to the Atlanta campus of the Georgia Institute of Technology on March 31. The show is open to "motor vehicles of all types owned by students, former students, faculty, staff, alumni, fans, and corporate sponsors of Georgia Tech." This show has a place for everything — classics, alternative-fuel cars, 4×4 trucks, kit cars, race cars, motorcycles, and more. Judging is by popular ballot, and, get this: ballots are for sale for $1 apiece, with the proceeds benefiting the Georgia Tech foundation. Obviously, it's all in fun.
Admission is free. In case of rain, the show will move to a covered parking garage.
The show is organized by a group of enthusiasts who wanted to highlight Georgia Tech's many contributions to the automobile industry. The institute's faculty and alumni include "Sneaky" Pete Robinson, who won the 1961 NHRA Nationals; Jim Downing, endurance racer and co-developer of the HANS device; Franci Cimatti, in charge of new road car platform design at Ferrari; Huibert Mees, a chassis expert with Ford Motor Co.; Norman Garrett, who helped develop the Mazda Miata; and Bryan Nesbitt, the head of car design for GM's European divisions.
About that Student Beater category: "Cars in this class will score higher with dents, rust, worn interiors, unpopular body styles, political opinions or music taste expressed in the form of worn bumper stickers or graphics…. If you suspect that your car may be worth less than your parking pass, then this might be the special category for you." If the University of Massachusetts had had a contest like this while I was there, I would have retired the trophy.
4,700 new Mazdas head for the crusher
The cars that were aboard the Cougar Ace, pictured here after it listed onto its port side during a ballast shifting accident on July 23, will all be crushed, Mazda reported recently
There will be no Cougar Ace Editions of Mazda's RX-8 and Miata after all. The company has announced that all of the 4,703 cars that were aboard the cargo ship Cougar Ace last summer when it listed 60 degrees onto its port side will be scrapped.
Mazda had initially considered selling the cars with full warranties and disclosures about their past, but concluded that it could not be sure about how much damage the cars might have suffered.
The company had said that it did not know how many of the vehicles were damaged in the July 23 accident, caused as the Cougar Ace was transferring ballast in rough water in the North Pacific, south of Alaska's Aleutian Islands. To make up for the lost cars, Mazda has increased production in Japan and redistributed cars to the U.S. from other parts of the world.
Bloomberg News has reported that some parts of the affected cars will be salvaged and sent to dealers in the U.S. and Canada as replacement parts. According to Mazda, most of the affected cars were Mazda 3 or CX-7 models, with a smaller number of RX-8 and MX-5 Miata cars on board as well.

TVR owners make some noise
TVR support Rally, London Thunder, not only sent a message in support of leaving TVR production in England, but it might have set a single-marque parade record
It's not yet official, but organizers of London Thunder, the TVR rally through the heart of London organized to build support for keeping the sports car maker in Britain, may have set a world record for largest single-marque parade.
According to press reports, 479 TVRs rumbled through Britain's capital on November 26, calling on the government to save the Blackpool factory and its 250 jobs. A delegation delivered a petition signed by 2,500 TVR owners to the 10 Downing Street home of Prime Minister Tony Blair. Nikolai Smolensky, the 24-year-old Russian billionaire who bought TVR for $25 million in 2004, has announced plans to shutter the factory permanently and move production to continental Europe. Plans announced this summer to build a new factory in Lancashire were cancelled in October, leading to an outcry from TVR enthusiasts around the world.
"It's been an outstanding success in terms of breaking the record and giving people something to think about," David Hughes, the event's organizer, told the press. "Now let's hope the government has enough motivation to see if it can do anything to help the management of TVR."
The existing single-marque parade record, by the way, was set in November 2005, when 249 Mazda Miatas gathered in Auckland, New Zealand

Big brother
To quote Count Rugen, "I think that's the worst thing I've ever heard." England's Advertising Standards Authority has determined that a Mazda MX-5 (Miata) ad "was irresponsible and encouraged fast, aggressive driving." As a result, they've asked Mazda UK to "amend" it. Appearantly, some thoughtful British citizen lodged a complaint with the ASA, which is not actually a governmental agency, but "the independent body set up by the advertising industry to police the rules laid down in the advertising codes."
Protecting consumers from false advertising and the ol' bait-and-switch is one thing, but this is just censorship. My disgust prevents me from saying just what I think about the ASA–but feel free to tell them on our behalf at firstname.lastname@example.com.
so much for the wait
Mazda had promised to end the months of speculation about a retractable hardtop MX-5 at the British International Auto Show, which opens July 18. But who wants to wait? So this week, Mazda announced that the plans are a go.
What we know is that the roof is going to be power operated. What we don't know officially is how much the new version is going to cost, and what the roof is going to be made from. Steel? Aluminum? Carbon fiber? Old CinZano signs? Beats us.
When the current generation MX-5 was released, we were thrilled that Mazda had resisted the urge the lard the car up with backup cameras and power-adjusted headrests. We'll have to withhold judgement on the RHT version until we've seen it, but we do have to wonder if Mazda hasn't taken a step toward pavin' paradise to put up a parking lot.
Retractable hardtop Miata?
Will Mazda launch a retractable hardtop version of its popular MX-5 roadster, aka the Miata? The manufacturer isn't saying, but Miata enthusiasts have been buzzing for months about the possibility. The speculation should end on July 20, when the car is—or isn't—unveiled at the British International Motor Show in London.
Rumors have been circulating for weeks on the MX-5 Miata Forum of www.miata.net, a Web site for fans of Mazda's two-seat sports car. Reaction from fans has been mixed; some say that the car already has the perfect convertible top, and doesn't need the added weight and complexity of a folding metal roof, while others say the option would be just the ticket for parts of the country that get rainy and cold weather. Automotive News Europe has gone so far as to quote European Mazda dealers who see little demand for such a car.
The Miata would give American buyers a choice of five retractable hardtops. The Volvo C70 ($39,000), Pontiac G6 ($28,500) and Lexus SC ($65,500) are now on sale, while the Volkswagen Eos will be introduced this fall, with a price starting at $28,000.
Looks like Mazda plans to keep the lid on until July 20. In the meantime, to learn more about the British International Motor Show, visit www.britishmotorshow.co.uk

Mazda Drops the Price on the 2006 MX-5
Mazda has announced that its 2006 MX-5 Miata will carry a list price of $20,435, a decrease of more than $2,000 from the 2005 model, when it goes on sale this summer. The restyled MX-5, introduced at the 2005 Geneva Auto Show, will be equipped with a 2-liter inline four-cylinder engine that produces 170hp, or 28hp more than the 1.8-liter engine it replaces. An MX-5 with a six-speed transmission will start at $22,935. Mazda isn't missing the opportunity for yet another special edition of the Miata. This time it's the 3rd Generation Limited, which, for $26,700, comes with exclusive Velocity Red Mica paint, 17-inch alloy wheels, and unique trim. For more about the MX-5, check out www.mazda.com.

Second run at a souped-up past
"Hot Tub Time Machine's" title may say it all. But just in case it doesn't, here's an alternative — "Back to the Hangover."
A sloppy, raucous, time-travel farce in the grown-men-gone-wild "Hangover" style, it's a surprisingly satisfying, if not exactly "LMAO," riot.
Nick (Craig Robinson) works at a dog grooming parlor, Sup Dawg, but back in the day, he had a band.
Adam (John Cusack) just got dumped. Again. He's a lonely insurance agent, but once upon a time, he had friends.
★★ 1/2 out of ★★★★
Starring John Cusack, Craig Robinson, Rob Corddry, Clark Duke, Lizzy Kaplan, Crispin Glover
An MGM film directed by Steve Pink. Produced by Cusack, Matt Moore and Grace Loh. Written by John Heald. 90 minutes. R for strong crude and sexual content, nudity, drug use and pervasive language.
And Lou (Rob Corddry) has become a "raging alcoholic," a guy whose life is so trapped in the past that he's hospitalized after jamming out to hair metal in his vintage Trans Am in his garage — nearly asphyxiating himself. He used to be the life of the party, "Lou-cipher, aka Violator."
Lou's carbon monoxide moment forces all of them to ask "What happened to us?"
"We were young," Adam whines. "We had momentum. We were winning."
They resolve to recapture past glory by making a road trip to the ski lodge of their youth, reviving Lou with a little snow and hedonism. Kodiak Valley is now a dump, the bellhop (Crispin Glover, a hoot) now an embittered, one-armed jerk.
But a short circuit in a hot tub changes everything — the hair, the clothes, the "Alf" playing on the TV in the background. The male bonders have landed back in their alleged heyday, the '80s. Adam's nerdy nephew (Clark Duke of "Sex Drive") is the one to figure it out, because "I write 'Stargate' fan fiction!"
What follows is a hit-or-miss riff on a decade that has never provoked the sort of fond nostalgia that the '50s, '60s or '70s did. As Cusack's Adam mutters, "Reagan. And AIDS. I hate this decade!"
But as they struggle to take what they know of time travel from bad movies ("The Butterfly Effect" is a point of reference), they discover where they went wrong, the details their memories got wrong, how they let each other down, how their "momentum" changed.
There are some big laughs (Robinson lands most of them), a few great running gags (how Glover's character lost his arm) and the "Back to the Future" sweet moments of reflection mostly work. It's not "The Hangover," but at least this "Hot Tub" won't have you hating yourself in the morning.

"These results are very encouraging and represent a major advance for XenoPort, its partners and, potentially, RLS patients," said Ronald W. Barrett, Ph.D., chief executive officer of XenoPort.
This XenoPort study was a 12-week, double-blind, placebo-controlled Phase 3 clinical trial that enrolled 222 patients who were diagnosed with moderate-to-severe primary RLS. Patients were treated with either 1200 mg of XP13512 or placebo, given once per day. The co-primary endpoints for the clinical trial were the change from baseline for the International RLS (IRLS) rating scale score at end of treatment and the percentage of patients showing significant improvement on the Clinical Global Impression of Improvement (CGI-I) scale at end of treatment.
Treatment with 1200 mg of XP13512 was associated with a statistically significant improvement in the co-primary endpoints compared to placebo. Improvements in the IRLS Scale were significantly greater for XP13512 than for placebo (-13.2 vs. -8.8: p=0.0002). At the end of treatment, significantly more patients treated with XP13512 were reported as "much improved" or "very much improved" on the CGI-I scale compared to those treated with placebo (76% vs. 39%: p less than 0.0001).
During treatment over the 12-week period, the most commonly reported adverse events for XP13512 versus placebo were somnolence (26.5% XP13512; 7.4% placebo) and dizziness (19.5% XP13512; 4.6% placebo). There were no reported serious adverse events in XP13512-treated patients.
Dr. Barrett stated, "XP135

There is nothing about this I wouldn't like to see more of.
I can show you more of the doorman if you'd like.
How about more weight?
She's got legs. She knows how to use them.
Would you get behind them, if you could only find them?
Which one is her? All I see is four thin metal poles.
Jesus that little scamp has nice legs.
Every day the same damn shot of her tooling around Manhattan in some cheerleader skirt and 4 inch heels — and always alone. It's just pathetic and sad.
The paparazzi are her best and only friends. She calls them, sees them, dresses for them every day.
Poor thing should just weave them some friendship bracelets already.
Why is she always in a Maybelline commercial?
I'm convinced there is nothing less sexual than her on the entire planet. And yes I'm aware of Lena Dunham.
Lena Dunham is probably freaky in the bedroom.
You can't insist that Taylor isn't sexy. She has beautiful (albeit seriously too thin) Legs, her face is darling, and she always dresses nicely. I wonder if she has puffies…
This fucking getting old shit just isn't for sissies. I keep doing stuff like making typos, and forgetting to close out HTML tags…FUCK! What a drag.
