Palladino: Kangaroos extend BL hoop lead
The Kangaroos have taken change in the race for the Berkshire League boys basketball championship.
The Terryville High boys defeated defending champion Northwestern on Tuesday night for the second time this season. Both games were close, but both times Terryville showed the championship mettle. The final score Tuesday was 50-44. The Kangaroos, 11-0 in the BL and 12-1 overall, look like a team that might run the table.
Is there a team out there that can stop the Terryville title march?
"We still have two big road games," said Shea Tracy, who had 12 points, five rebounds, nine assists and four steals for Terryville, "at Gilbert and (Lewis) Mills. We have to go out, play strong and come out with the energy like we do every game, and take care of business."
That is what the Kangaroos did Tuesday.
Terryville looked ready to take the game over on at least three occasions, but the Highlanders (8-3, 8-2) did not let it happen. Ric Persechino led Northwestern with 13 points, Steve McGrath scored 11, to with 10 boards, and Teddy Bremer scored seven with nine rebounds. The Highlanders crashed the boards, played defense and stayed close.
"We hit the boards real well," Bremer said, "and we could have finished a few shots. But they are an explosive team. They came out with big runs, and it was tough to make it all up."
Northwestern gave the Kangaroos a stern test. Terryville wanted to run and did so effectively at times. But at the half, this was just a three-point game, 21-18 for Terryville.
"We came out a little out of rhythm," said Terryville's Jacob Johnson, "and the shots weren't falling. We came together in the second half. We talked, we communicated better, we saw what defense they were playing and we got some open shots."
Johnson (12 points, six rebounds, three steals, three assists) keyed the 'Roos in the second half when he scored six straight points in a Terryville eight-point run.
Terryville had balance Tuesday. Tyler Trillo scored 11, with three steals, and a key player was 6-5 pivot man Zach Graham, who had his best game of the season. Graham scored 11, grabbed five rebounds and gave Terryville a tough profile in the paint against a bigger Northwestern team. Graham's task was to provide the Terryville muscle against Northwestern's Bremer and McGrath.
"Teddy (Bremer) and (Steve) McGrath are real good players," Graham said. "It is impossible to stop them. I'm just glad I could do my part."
Graham scored six big points in the fourth quarter to slow a Northwestern rally and help put Terryville a step closer to a BL title.
"This was a big game, our biggest game so far," Graham said. "It is a big weight off our shoulders to get this win."
Now, can Terryville finish the job? Johnson said yes and told us how.
"We have to keep coming into practice with the same mentality," he said, "and not look down on any team. We have to play the same every game and play as hard as we can. We're having a great season, playing hard and playing together most of the time. We've just got to keep doing what we're doing to get the W's."

"My husband was here earlier."
Phylis Robe gets a flu shot every year.
"Well, I'm a cardiac patient, so it's necessary that I get them."
She was concerned when she learned of the shortage this year.
"Well, I figured I would do the best I could. I kept listening to the news and they said just wait and there will be more later, so I did and there is."
Robe was one of many that showed up get the flu vaccination.
Julia Davidson is the clinical director of BRADD. She says, "We've seen pretty good numbers. Not everyone came all at once so that's good. Everyone's getting through really quickly."
At just after 11 o'clock nearly 600 of the 1,500 flu vaccinations had been administered.
Davidson says, "We're still seeing the high risk individuals, people 65 and older, people with chronic illness. We have seen some babies through."
People turned up to received the flu vaccinations at 7 a.m. and the flow since then stayed steady.
Davidson says, "There is not a line, so they are coming through, they're filling out their paperwork and they're right out."
Robe says she's glad she didn't have to wait in the long lines.
"I know some that stood in the long lines earlier."
And now that the FDA announced it would be brining in as many as four million flu shots from a company in Germany the government hopes the doses will be available for those who need it this year and will likely prevent a shortage next year.

The XBOX marketing people should get views from PGR3 behind a web interface like this, the 'virtual view' could just be an alternative layer to the street view.
(OK perhaps no real practical use, but a fun thing to do!)
Cool! Do you have anything in place to protect privacy? Can license plates of cars in front of the camera van be read?

With its core gameplay focusing on providing you with the best flight experience, H.A.W.X 2 attempts to deliver the intense combat situations faced by soldiers during a war. Expect quality gunplay and escape tactics that you can improve with every flight.
The sequel to Tom Clancy's H.A.W.X packs in plenty of features that will push your adrenaline level to an all-time high every time you play it. The game is targeted towards aircraft enthusiasts who love the soaring jets that fly across the skies. The combat flight simulator is available for the PC platform and carries a Teen rating from ESRB.

Insurgents have openly announced war and are on assault with full force. With powerful jets and frigates at their disposal, they can create havoc wherever they go. You, playing as a member of H.A.W.X. 2 team, will now have to eliminate them to bring back peace. This is not easy as it sounds as you have to indulge in combat with a variety of cunning and intelligent enemies. Every mission you go on will decide the fate of the world. Do you have it in you to do what it takes to become the ultimate H.A.W.X. 2 pilot?
Developed by Ubisoft Romania and published by Ubisoft, H.A.W.X. 2 includes features such as a jamming pod, night vision attacks and many more.

Worst flight simulation game ever purcahsedAlright, this is the first modern aerial combat game produced for the PC but it has been horribly implemented. I will be focusing mostly on the DRM and installation hassles I faced. Firstly, the updating. It needs uPlay, another gaming platform to function and open. Yep, now add that to Origin and Steam. I really question ubisoft as to why they did not use one of those two well established platforms in the first place. Moving on, and to the biggest annoyance- the game cannot be played offline.

Call of Duty with planesLet me make one thing clear.This is not a flight simulator.Its an action game with modern jets.You will be engaged in dogfights,mid-air re-fueling,taking off and air to ground engagements.The graphics are almost photo-realistic from a distance but get ugly when you come too close to the ground.The planes however look awesome.The mission variety is just fantastic.Even though its a flight-action game,its got a full-fledged story with twists and turns.Like the title says,its really Call of Duty with jets.At this price,this is a must buy for any gamer with a liking for jets and explosions.I hope m… (Expand)

Beckett Resigns Winter Haven City Commission Seat
New job at flight school would be in conflict with ethics laws
Published: Wednesday, December 12, 2012 at 12:52 p.m.
Last Modified: Wednesday, December 12, 2012 at 12:52 p.m.
WINTER HAVEN | Jamie Beckett tendered his resignation from the Winter Haven City Commission on Wednesday after the city attorney concluded Beckett's new job at a Winter Haven flight school would conflict with state ethics laws.
"On advice from the city attorney, it is clear to me that my professional life would put me at odds with state law as I transition into a newly offered position managing a new flight school at Winter Haven's Gilbert Field," Beckett wrote in his resignation letter.
"It is with considerable sorrow that I am compelled to tender my resignation from the Winter Haven City Commission."
Beckett submitted the letter after City Attorney John Murphy determined Beckett's new job as vice president of operations at SunState Aviation's new offices in Winter Haven "could likely create such a frequently recurring conflict ... that is prohibited under ... Florida Statutes."
The flight school, which is contracted to provide flight training for Polk State College's new aviation program, has a lease with the city's airport.
Beckett, 53, was first elected to the City Commission in 2009, when he defeated incumbent mayor Yvonne Brooks. He leaves his post with less than a year left in his term.
Beckett has been one of the more controversial commissioners, outspoken on many issues facing the city, and sometimes finding himself in heated commission meeting debates.
Beckett said Wednesday it was hard to resign but it was something he had to do because the law required it.
"I really would have liked to finish out my term and run for one more," Beckett said.
"In all honesty, I had a good time. Being a part of the community and being as fully involved as you can really is a gratifying feeling. I have no hard feelings. I absolutely love this town. It ended sooner than I would have liked but I have absolutely no regrets."
Beckett said he plans to live in Winter Haven for the rest of his life and hopes to become a member of the Winter Haven Airport Advisory Committee. He was the commission liaison to the board until his resignation.
"I'll do whatever I can to make it the best place I can," Beckett said.
Assistant City Manager Deric Feacher said he was not sure how Beckett's replacement would be selected, but the city's charter says the "commission shall elect an eligible person to fill the same until the next general municipal election, if not, a special election shall be called within thirty days to fill such vacancy."
Beckett's resignation came two days after Winter Haven activist Eddy Twyford pressed commissioners on a possible conflict stemming from the airport job.
Twyford said Wednesday he was happy the situation came to such a quick conclusion.
"I wish it could have occurred more gracefully; however, it didn't," Twyford said.
"Commissioner Beckett was the one who accepted the job and he had to have known there would have been at least a question of conflict of interest.
"I think it is the right move that he voluntarily resign. I think it saves a tremendous amount of angst in the community."

Can anybody give a definition of the equalizer completion of a cartesian category?
Is the method to get more or less as the regular and exact completions in the way that are given in: http://ncatlab.org/nlab/show/regular+and+exact+completions?
How is in that case the behaviour of the forgetful functor FL-->FP (where FL are categories with finite limits and FP categories with finite products)?

Joseph Beuys believed art to be a means of realizing a social utopia. Envisioning the role of the artist as akin to that of a shaman, Beuys developed a self-defined practice of "social sculpture," an art form based largely on political involvement and environmental concerns. To this end, he developed a synthetic yet personal symbolic vocabulary to articulate his concern for cultural change.
The encyclopedic work Arena—dove sarei arrivato se fossi stato intelligente! (Arena—where would I have got if I had been intelligent!) (1970–72) comprises one hundred panels containing several hundred photographs of some of his most important actions up to 1972. Like many of Beuys's works, Arena was developed and modified over several years. An early, untitled version was shown in Edinburgh in 1970. By 1972, he had reworked the piece, transforming it from a document to an artwork. As finally realized, the work is an artistic summation, drawing together images of Beuys's artistic actions, collaborative performances, sculptural objects, and drawings. The only found photograph, depicting the Roman amphitheater in Verona, speaks to his conception of the work as dealing with the "arena" of life. Favoring evocation over documentation, it is an allegorical portrait of his artistic persona.
Beuys bleached, solarized, or otherwise manipulated many of Arena's photographs to imbue them with an aura of use and decay. Torn edges and perforations enhance the roughness of the printing, and most of the surfaces are worked, often with a layer of wax or of fat and Braunkreuz (an oil-based medium that Beuys often used). Besides the panels of photographs, he incorporated three panes of colored glass—two in royal blue, evoking the cold northern sky, and one in golden yellow, redolent of the southern sun—that might be thought of as filters through which the remaining panels are seen.
Beuys adjusted Arena to its exhibition sites, condensing or expanding it as space permitted. In the last installation supervised by the artist, at the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum in New York in 1979, he propped the panels against a wall in three piles, massing them into what he called a Fond—a battery, a device for sending, storing, and receiving energy.
Cherishing its self-contained structure and implicit promise of transformation, Beuys deployed the concept of the Fond throughout his oeuvre. For him, communication through art meant the interchange of energies. In Brasilienfond (Brazilian Fond), Fond III/3, and Fond IV/4 (all 1979), he used piles of felt and stacks of metal, materials that carried symbolic resonance for him. Like the fat in Arena, felt symbolized protective insulation, while metals implied transmission: copper being particularly conductive, iron suggesting rootedness to the earth.
Aus Berlin: Neues vom Kojoten (From Berlin: News from the Coyote) (1979), is composed of rubble and lathe removed from the former René Block Gallery in Berlin at the time of the gallery's closure, during an action titled Joseph Beuys— Ja, jetz brechen wir den Scheiss ab—Coyote II (Joseph Beuys—Yes, Now We Are Tearing the Shit Down—Coyote II). The installation also includes elements from I Like America and America Likes Me, Beuys's longest action ever, carried out in Block's New York gallery five years earlier. Having traveled from Germany to Manhattan wrapped in felt, Beuys spent a week in a room with a coyote, an animal revered as a deity by Native Americans for its wiliness and its supposed ability to transform itself. For Beuys the coyote was a New World counterpart to the hare and stag—subjects of European folklore and myth, and key motifs in his pantheon. Conceived like a stage set, the almost barren "landscape" of Aus Berlin is lit by a projector and a series of miner's lamps on sticks. A felt hat is juxtaposed with a walking stick and other accoutrements relating to the figure of the magus. Meticulously recorded, the original installation has been re-created here in a space that replicates the dimensions of the Ronald Feldman Gallery in New York, where it was first presented.

In this answer it is mentioned that boiling with the lid on or off may make a difference in final gravity. Which do you recommend and why?
You want to boil with your lid off.
Part of the process of boiling is to remove dimethyl sulfide (DMS), which is a sulfur compound off flavor that tastes like cooked corn. DMS is formed by heating the wort. If you leave the lid on the kettle DMS won't evaporate with the steam and you'll have more of the flavor in your beer.
You might also run the risk of boilover if you leave the lid on, but DMS is the larger concern. This is also one of the reasons you want a real, rolling boil as it allows more DMS to escape.
I think the difference (regarding gravity) would just be water volume. Lid off = liquid lost to steam. You can compensate by adding more (or less) water after the boil.
The actual amount of liquid lost depends on the geometry of your kettle, but I think 1-1.5 gallons per hour is a rule of thumb. The easy way to know for sure is to measure before and after a boil.

Full KOntact Workshop with Steve Cotter/Ken Blackburn
I spent this weekend down in Fenton, MI, which is just down the road about an hour from me, participating in a Full KOntact Kettlebell workshop with Steve Cotter, who graciously invited me down, and Ken Blackburn, the nearest kettlebell trainer.
Was very interesting. Steve Cotter has, as we all know, broken ties with Pavel and Dragon Door for assorted reasons, and I really didn't ask him to go into them, but the gist of it being that he's embraced the sport of kettlebell lifting, as it appears in Eastern Europe, due to more efficient technique and because he feels it's the appropriate use for kettlebells. The proper use for the tool, so to speak. (note how diplomatic I put that). He feels teh proper use of kbs is for kettlebell lifting sport and building work capacity.
Ken Blackburn also feels this way, as do most of the kettlebell sport people in the U.S. nowadays.
So, to get into what we covered:
Day 1:
Dynamic Warm up
Joint Mobility
-these were both pretty basic, straight up iterations of these topics. Being out of shape and, ahem, hefty, I was left sweating and winded. Skips, hops, lunges, joint circles, etc.
1. 2H Swings
2. 1H Swings
3. 1H Swings switching hands each rep.
4. Basic kettlebell juggling
One of the important concepts Steve introduced was that kettlebell work, especially the classic lifts, should be performed for time. 10 minutes is the competitive timeframe for the sport of kettlebell lifting, and, from what Steve said, the Eastern European kettlebell lifters look down on not finishing out the time, even if you do an impressive number of reps. Patience and relaxation are key concepts.
A major difference was demonstrated between the way the RKC program teaches swings and the way classical kettlebell lifters swing. It's a more relaxed swing, with the eyes following the kettlebell, and less emphasis on rigidity and the hip snap, in fact, the often hard and crisp movements that the RKC program teaches are really viewed as "wrong" by the best kettlebell lifters in the sport of kettlebell lifting.
After that, but before lunch, we did the Full KOntact Extreme Athletic Challenge. This consisted of:
1. Kettlebell lifting, i.e Girevoy Sport. 10 minutes. 1H snatch, or 2H jerk.
2. 1 Arm KB press - heaviest wins.
3. Juggling - this was doing a swing flipping the kb one way, then doing a swing and flipping the kb the other way.
4. Kettlebell Push/Pulls: Pushing a kb along the floor a certain distance, then pulling it back to the starting point. This was done on artificial turf and was an absolute ballbreaker. 3 different sized kbs, 2 total circuits. Done for time.
5. Kettlebell Farmer's Hold - For time.
The incentive was that the winner received a free professional grade kettlebell. 2 weight classes...heavy (176lbs+) and light (175lbs-).
Let's just say that I didn't receive one, but I did press the 106# "Beast" overhead with one arm. The push/pulls were brutally tough. Ken Blackburn admitted that he has his classes do them on the carpet where he teaches, and it's much easier and faster.
We broke for lunch, then went over some more fundamentals.
The clean
1. 1H cleans
2. 2H cleans
3. The importance of the rack, and being able to rest in the rack.
-The rack, and resting in it is vital to GS (from here on out I'm just going to use GS to describe the sport of kettlebell lifting). Steve and Ken gave us numerous pointers, and to hammer these home were did timed sets. These got longer and more brutal. Timed holds in the rack position, and timed clean sets with rest permitted in the rack position were both done.
The jerk
The jerk was taught from the rack, and was initiated from the knees. If you take the time out to watch some of the GS vids on YouTube, you will see the form of the jerks we practiced.
1. 1H Jerks
2. 2H jerks
Once again, for timed sets. Repetitions were irrelevant. Jerking or holding it racked or overhead in GS legal positions was emphasized.
Finally, snatches.
Steve and Ken spoke about hand health, grip issues. and demonstrated the GS snatch, which includes following the kb with the eyes and described above. Relaxation and patience. Resting in the lockout position, or with the kb hanging from the arm below.
Timed sets. I tried not to cry.
I'll write up the second day later on today.

Sunday morning was a bit rough. It was daylight savings time again, and everyone had lost an hour of sleep.
I woke up and basically it felt like everything from right above the glutes to my neck was locked up along with the delts. Stiff and sore. It took an act of will to move.
I had about an hour's drive back to Fenton so I brewed some coffee and got on the road.
The workshop started right around 9 AM.
First part was a recap of yesterday. We had 3 more people join us, one was Pete Silverman, the other was his son, and the third was a woman I didn't meet.
We started with the same warm up.
That warm up sequence is, basically:
1. High knee skips going forward.
2. High knee skips going backwards.
3. Lateral skips (both directions)
4. Kind of a carioci type movement, making sure you rotated the hips and lower torso while keeping the upper body in the same position (both directions)
5. Lunges
6. Reverse lunges
7. Continuous lunges
8. Continuous backwards lunges
Someone can chime in if I forgot something. Once again I was winded and sweating, but the warm up did have the effect of loosening me up dramatically, compared to how I felt when I walked in.
Then we went over the major points from the first day.
After that we went over some of the "circus feats" of kettlebell lifting. These are basically just the non-contested lifts that are particularly handy to do with a kettlebell.
The military press:
Nothing really new here for anyone, but Ken went over the tension techniques. He easily pressed the 106# kb, and said that he hadn't been pressing much lately, that all the jerking work for kettlebell lifting had kept his press in good shape.
1 kb press
2 kb press
The see-saw press
The sotts press
The push press
Did some timed sets here on a few of these.
Went over the deck squat, front squatting, overhead squatting, and in and effort to improve my depth, Ken showed me a drill to emphasize pulling myself into the squat with my hip flexors...sad to say it didn't work all that well for me, I don't know if it's because I am pretty well trained in barbell squatting or if I had some mental blocks up, but to get deeper in an unloaded squat I really need several cycles of tensing up and relaxing.
Pete had some issues and Ken and Steve went over some things to help him out, like the face-the-wall squat, and some PNF stretching techniques for the shoulders to help improve overhead squatting. The PNF techniques were pretty good stuff, you can probably find out more info than you'd ever care to know if you google it.
The windmill:
Again, nothing new here, just basic, hands on instruction for the movement.
We went over the turkish get up as well.
The pistol, being one of Steve's trademark movements, was demonstrated. Steve makes it look like the most natural and easy movement you can imagine. The rest of us weren't quite as polished. I can't do a pistol, and tried a few different ways to do one, and I have a long way to go. I seem to have some issue where my leg will shut off after I reach a certain depth...doing a one legged step down from a chair revealed that I couldn't just touch my foot lightly to the ground and come up, but that I had to put my weight on it.
After that, Steve did a demonstration of his pistol jumps up and down off a table. It was simply an incredible display of skillful and powerful movement, and it remains one of the more impressive things I've ever seen someone do.
Steve explained that he doesn't ever recommend training these or trying these to anyone, but it's a very good example of why training to decelerate and to absorb force is useful. If you think about it, everyone's very concerned with accelerating and force development, but the vast majority of sports also require the exact opposite skills half the time.
I also like what Mike Boyle says about one legged work...you live your life on one leg. There are very few sports where both legs are engaged at the same time in the same way.
We went over the TGU sit up, which is a very high tension abdominal movement Steve recommends. This was a new one for me, and utilized strategic breath holding and release to control your descent. This is a hard one to describe, and maybe I'll tape myself doing this as a demo.
Then briefly we went over some program design and some Q&A on assorted topics.
Steve said he likes to see a program have a push, a pull, and a squat variant on each day, for general fitness purposes, and then with an abdominal exercise and a grip exercise.
For Kettlebell Sport, he likes the competitive movement done in a timed set, 1 armed overweight jerks, overweight swings, overweight rack holds, and Ken mentioned that he likes high repetition jump squats.
I'm sure I'm missing a bunch, but that was about it.

thats some good stuff I really respect Steve Cotter and have been following his stuff for some time.
On a tangent do you have a dynamax ball and a jump stretch band or variations thereof?

Did Cotter or Blackburn happen to mention what auxiliary exercises GS competitors do (e.g. heavy dead lifts)?

I have a 10# med ball...basketball type, and pairs of JS bands from mini to heavy.
Steve mentioned that if the physical strength wasn't there, and if that was the limiting factor for a particular kettlebell lifter, then a basic strength program would be prescribed.
Steve's talk about programming was pretty basic, with one squat, one press, and one pull recommended for each session.
One thing that wasn't talked about much, was how to reconcile kettlebell sport training and other training. I don't think many people have done it as of yet. One thing that is true is the kettlebell lifting, as per the sport, builds a tremendous amount of work capacity.
How to combine that with, oh, say, maximal strength training in the best way possible hasn't really been looked at yet, as I can see, but I would imagine it'd be very much like the ME Black Box approach or a one lift a day approach.
Since you train for time, you know what your time commitment is going to be, so you could easily tack it onto the tail end of a strength session.
Strength Portion:
Power clean/High pull/Deadlift progressive pulls
Front squats from rack
Push presses from rack
GS Portion:
5 minutes of GS jerk practice with 24kg kbs
5 minutes of overweight swings with one hand switch: 32kg kb.

What's "global" about Iowa, you ask? How about the fact that the state is the top U.S. exporter of soybeans, feed grains, and live animals? Or the fact that the state's newest citizens come from places like Bosnia, Mexico, and Vietnam?
Grinnell College recognizes that international learning begins in the College's own location. The rolling prairie hills around campus provide a "living laboratory" for studying the global implications of food production, land and energy use, environmental change and sustainable development. That's why programs like the Environmental Studies Concentration use of the multi-acre Conard Environmental Research Area just outside campus to explore ecological questions that have global consequences. It's why the Center for Prairie Studies works with the Center for International Studies and the Rosenfield Program to sponsor symposia on topics like Brazil's challenge to American farmers and on the new immigration to Iowa. And it's why students in majors like Economics might do a Mentored Advanced Project on the economic consequences of ethanol subsidies.
Moreover, the small-town location for the College provides a uniquely intimate setting that allows people to really listen to one another and to learn from their different perspectives. Paradoxical as it sounds, this small college in the middle of the American heartland is one of the best settings for you to participate in a true international dialogue—learning from global students and faculty as you study the processes that take Iowa corn to Mexico and bring South American fruits to the grocery store.
- The Graham Laboratory at the Conard Environmental Research Area includes a reference library, an herbarium, an insect collection and a greenhouse to provide space for experimenting with and propagating native plants.
- Grinnell College's Dining Services has been recognized for its efforts in local food purchasing and recycling by the Sustainable Endowments Institute.
- The Grinnell College "Statement on Environmental Responsibility" says that the College has a duty to be a leader "in environmental stewardship, education, and policy" and that the College "is therefore committed to incorporating environmental responsibility into policies, decisions, and daily life on campus."
- Read about Professor Vince Eckhart's research on evolutionary plant ecology.
- The Iowa Caucuses, held at the very beginning of the election process often sets the tone for the US Presidential Election. Due to its location in Iowa, Grinnell College has the unique opportunity of being an important destination for Presidential campaigns.

I've got a friend that's somewhat interested in doing Stronglifts, but for personal reasons she's utterly terrified of tearing up her knees from doing squats. I've tried to convince her otherwise but to no avail. Is there another exercise, or group of exercises, that can replace a squat? Or even a modified squat that's a lot easier on the knees?
Sign up
- Anybody can ask a question
- Anybody can answer
- The best answers are voted up and rise to the top
The exercise famous for being hard on the knees is the leg press - not squat. If the squat is done with the correct depth (hip lower than the knee) so that the change of direction is NOT done while the knees are at right angles, it shouldn't hurt the knees. If you get some soft knee wraps you might be able to convince her to squat with those.
If not - I would highly recommend lunges holding dumbbells. They train similar muscles.
I will say that I have had more stress on my knees from martial arts training than I ever had from heavy squats. The book Starting Strength has some good information on why this is. The important and critical factor is getting the hips below the knees before changing directions.
The depth causes certain things to happen that protect the knees:
The bottom line is that there is no lift that can adequately replace squats. Lunges are acceptable, but if you are worried about knee health the idea of touching the knee to the floor with weights is not really appealing. Goblet squats are a good way to get introduced to the movement, get some torso strength, and more easily get to depth.
Running, partial squats, jumps, etc. are all exercises that place much higher stresses on the knee joint. One of the main factors is the fact that only the anterior muscles are engaged when you land. The force imparted to the knee as your weight is coming down and your foot is already on the immovable earth is up to 3x your body weight. The impact is much faster than it would be to get the posterior chain involved--thus no help. Squats protect your knee, and help improve your posterior chain use even in these high stress activities. As long as all the forces come from one side of your body (anterior chain or posterior chain), there is an increased risk of injury. When both sides of your body are engaged, the load is distributed to the muscle rather than the joints.
We will lose this argument
Let's assume you're not going to convince her that squats are good for her knees. They are, but you can only lead a horse to water. What, then, should you have her do instead?
First, get the idea of StrongLifts out of your head. If you're not squatting, you're not doing StrongLifts. It's essential to programs like this to squat heavy three times a week. In fact, on page 41 of the StrongLifts ebook, it says:
So doing "StrongLifts" without squats is out of the question. She can do a linear progression on everything else if she wants.
You could have her do goblet squats until she gets her big girl pants on and realizes that real squats are what strong and healthy people do. Not everybody has to do a 3-times-a-week back squats in order to live their life healthfully. (But it sure helps.) Sometimes just "not weak" is enough. Goblet squats can do that. Unfortunately, they might trigger the same danger signals she has for barbell squats.
Lunges would be great. Here's what I'd try: have her do lunges with dumbbells--heavy dumbbells, no five pound BS--and stick with that for a few workouts. Increase the weight as possible. If she's okay with that after a few weeks, spring this question on her: why is bending her knee for a lunge safe, but bending her knee for a squat dangerous? If someone is convinceable, that should work. If they're not, well, fine. We must open our arms to the gentle indifference of the world.
Air squats, adding weight at an imperceptible pace with the wimpy dumbbells until she's doing real work, might weasel past her anti-squat defenses and get her to do real work. It's worth a try.
But it's very possible that she'll reject these and all other fruitful substitutes for barbell back squats (e.g. pistol squats, Bulgarian split squats, front squats...). The problem is that for the substitute to work, it needs to bend the knees deeply. Since she's terrified of using her knees for the purpose which they evolved for--bending deeply--it's kind of a problem. So we might not be able to substitute anything for squats.
So now we're not doing StrongLifts, and we're not squatting or lunging. What are we left with in a world without squatting?
Lift heavy some other way. Focus on deadlifts, heavy presses, and getting to a set of real pull-ups. Lift heavy. Drag a sled and sprint. Maybe throw in a couple farmer's walks--as heavy as humanly possible--since you have time in your workout now that squats are forbidden. Lift heavy.
Linear progression is king, but if someone is scared of squatting I have doubts that they'll add five pounds to their bench press every session. It might be necessary to scale back the progression to add weight every other workout or even less frequently.
You'll never replace the squats, but if she lifts heavy in every other way, it probably won't be a big deal.
The squat is the only strength training exercise that involves a pattern known as "hip drive." The hip drive is essentially recruitment of the muscles in the posterior chain--hamstrings, glutes, adductors. You could individually target each muscle, however that would be inefficient as the body is designed to work as a whole, so the focus should be on compound exercises that trains the muscle groups.
In fact, squats are considered by most to be the "grandfather" of all strength training exercises--that is how important they are.
She shouldn't be. Squats are a natural human movement, and even babies squat below parallel (albeit without a barbell on their shoulders). If the squat was so dangerous, you wouldn't see babies doing it, and you certainly wouldn't see so many strength training programs advocating its use.
Performed correctly, a squat can potentially rehabilitate the knees... not destroy them. Personally speaking, I have bad knees, and I noticed a definite improvement once I started squatting; I just had to ensure that I maintained good form. If she is concerned with form, I recommend buying the book Starting Strength--Basic Barbell Training. It helps tremendously. Another route would be to upload videos to strength training websites for form checks (i.e. the stronglifts.com forum).
If she is "terrified" that she will tear up her knees with the squat, she very likely will. She probably has (or had) a significant knee problem. Even if she doesn't have knee problems, trying to do an exercise while in a state of fear can affect one's tension, attention and form.
If she has knee problems:
My suggestion would be to strengthen the glutes without involving the knees using levers or cables. This bodyweight could also be ok, depending on the knee problem. If she does have a knee problem, strengthening the glutes will help reduce strain on the knees. If/as her knees improve from increased glute strength, she may be more likely to want to try squats, esp. given all the information included in other answers as to why squats can help strengthen the knees.
She can also, strengthen the quads isometrically with the knee locked and hip adductors/abductors using cables.
The beauty of the squat however is that it targets many of the body's large muscle groups so you would also have to consider the trunk muscles (front, back and sides - planks, side planks etc.) and calves.
If she doesn't have knee problems and it is just the idea of a squat with weight that scares her, kettlebell swings may be a helpful alternative.
As she gets stronger with other exercises she may feel more confident to try the squat. Also, when she realizes how many exercises you need to do to equal one squat, she may decide that the squat is worth learning.
Consider deadlifts (not the stiff-legged ones); they have a small range-of-motion, and don't weight the turn-around point if the weight is set on the floor. (Or reduce rep speed, particularly at turn-around.)
Without knowing what the "personal reasons" are it's difficult to provide actionable advice, however, because only exercises that target the same muscles, hence the same joint, will have similar effects.
It's also possible to progress into weighted squats after building up strength and connective tissues through body-weight squats. Depending on her goals, they may be enough on their own anyway.

My system currently runs an XBMC live install. I am installing a second hard drive in my system, but I am somewhat of a linux newb and only know the basics. Since it is XBMC I believe I need to do everything from the command line.
Can anyone give me a little step by step on what I need to do with the commands and proper parameters?
As an aside, I am planning on formatting as ext2. The game plan is to share this drive on my network, so I can copy files to it from my Mac running OSX. Should I use a different format?

Edward Asner was born in 1929 just weeks after Black Tuesday pitched the U.S. into the depths of the Great Depression. When he was a sophomore in high school 16 years later, the only president he�d ever known died just weeks before the end of World War II.
�I�d thought God the Father had died,� Asner said last month during a live interview on KDUR.
Asner will visit Fort Lewis College on Wednesday in the guise of Franklin Delano Roosevelt. He�s been performing �FDR� for several years, reviving the role made famous by Ralph Bellamy in Dore Schary�s �Sunrise at Campobello.� The play takes its name from the Roosevelt family retreat off the coast of Maine.
�I�ve loved it,� Asner said. �I naturally have gotten more proficient at it. I consider it a fine gem, and I keep polishing it, and it�s getting more sparkly.�
�FDR� is a first-person account in the president�s own words and those that Schary thought could�ve been. It�s a rationalization and explanation of the decisions that faced Roosevelt during his unprecedented 13 years in office between 1933 and 1945. It�s also a living history lesson, and Asner is a passionate teacher.
�He smelled the rat of Nazism, fascism and knew our nation must arm itself,� Asner said. �He had to twist and cajole and pull every kind of shenanigans and tricks. There was a strong anti-Semitic element in this country ... and it was always an uphill battle to gain the traction to prepare the country for what Roosevelt saw was coming.�
FDR/Asner also discusses the president�s battle with the Supreme Court over the National Recovery Act and his subsequent efforts to �stack� the court to get his programs effected. He is frank in his admission of his affair with his assistant, Lucy Mercer, and Asner believes Schary got it right when it came to Pearl Harbor, despite the many conspiracy theories that abound.
�We try to cover everything, and I think perhaps there�s a large segment of the population who say he knew Pearl was coming. I try to present that he knew Japan would be striking at us, but he never dreamed it would Pearl Harbor,� Asner said.
Asner gained his fame as the gruff Lou Grant, first on �The Mary Tyler Moore Show� and later �Lou Grant.� He won seven Emmys for the role, and is the only actor to win an Emmy for comedy and drama for the same role. He was a former president of the Screen Actors Guild and has recently become a vocal critic of the government�s role in the Sept. 11 attacks.
He won�t be discussing any of those aspects of his career on stage, but there will be an opportunity to meet Asner before the show. He�ll attend a reception under the tent on the patio outside the Concert Hall (separate tickets required). Surprisingly, this will be his first visit to the Centennial State, and he may have as many questions for his audience as they do for him.
�I�ve heard of the fabulous territory of Colorado, and I�ve been desirous of seeing if it�s as magical as people tell me. It�ll be a journey of inquest and conquest,� Asner said.

How do you sneak attack? Can it only be performed with certain weapons? I.E. Swords, Daggers, Bows.
When you attack some target, and that target doesn't know where you are at the moment the attack lands - that's a sneak attack.
Some relevant details:
Additional tips:
Sneak attacks are performed when you do an attack in sneak mode on an unsuspecting enemy. You can perform sneak attacks with all weapons (but not spells.) Each has a different damage multiplier depends on the perk.
Unarmed and two handed will only go up to 2x damage
If you wear gloves from a certain organization, you can double the bonus sneak damage, up to 30x for a sneak attack dagger strike.
As a bonus, sneak attacking with daggers is completely silent. So even if you miss, the enemy will not know you are there. This is not the case with any other weapon.
Pretty simply you must be sneaking and unnoticed, which means that the 'eye' in the middle of your screen must not indicate that you have been detected. Note that this means it can be slightly open. You can read about the states of sneaking here. Since you didn't ask about the perks associated with sneak attacking or the damage multipliers I'll assume you're familiar with them and won't go over them but you can use a bow or any one-handed weapon. I have seen others comment that you should not hold down the attack button but I haven't had this problem. I've also tried 'power' attacks by moving slightly towards the target while attacking and haven't noticed any failure. In fact, I also was treated with the 3rd-person throat-cutting animation (was using daggers) so perhaps this is useful. There are many discussions on this topic on gaming.SE. If you're quick enough you may also be able to get in a second 'sneak' attack before they fully turn around and the game indicates they have noticed you. As far as making sound when sneaking with weapons, I've read that daggers are silent and this appears to be true since I have drawn my weapons within earshot of targets and they haven't noticed me. I haven't verified that is is true with other one-handed weapons so use at your own risk. Move slowly and watch for items on the floor and you should have success.

Spicy. For some people it's their taste-buds doing the
tango, for others it's watery eyes, but for Tim and
Laina it's a personality trait. They are drawn to the
passions of life, and this is what led them to Las
Vegas and the inevitable birth of Hot'N'Juicy
Crawfish. Both grew up loving seafood and fun.
They made several trips to Vegas to enjoy the amazing
culinary diversity and the non-stop entertainment that the
city is so acclaimed for. But something was missing amongst
all the glitz, glamour, and gambling: something that they could not live without… CRAWFISH. Not just any crawfish, but the kind of crawfish that will keep you awake at night thinking about when you can get some more, the kind that doesn't need pretense, special occasion, or utensils. That was the last straw, it was time to do something about it.
Vegas hasn't been the same since and they haven't stopped there…

My Linux sandbox boots into the text mode. During the boot process many lines are prefixed with a number between brackets ie. [40.000] Normally this number reaches upwards to 80. Recently I've noticed this number can be as short as 40 and today it was at a completely different magnitude and ended around 1200.
- What is it called?
- What does it represent?
- Any idea why a stable install without auto update would suddenly change this value?

My SpEn had the pleasure of killing Azrael and part of his escort. However, this involved sticky flames, that burned off all of my scrolls and shattered a few potions. Luckily, my +2 robe of fire resistance helped survive me the experience. I do grieve the scrolls however, and it doesn't help that part of the escort was a mottled dragon, which now attached me sticky flames of its own.
How can I put sticky flames off myself?

Hi all. I have my Canon 60D mounted to my new NN3 MKII with an Opteka Fisheye lens attached. Yesterday, I took the time to find the Nodal Point (its located at 9.2 on the upper rail).
I can get most of the shots no problem except for straight up Zenith shot. The max I can rotate the rig upwards is 55 Degrees, as the back of the camera collides with the base rotator. I am guessing that this is more than enough coverage with my fisheye attached to capture the Zenith, but when my 18-200 lens attached it hits the base as well. Does this mean my 18-200 lens will not be able to get the full 360 pano?
Thanks for the help.

(CBS/AP)-- Three weeks after facing defeat in his bid for the presidency, former GOP nominee Mitt Romney will head to the White House tomorrow for a private lunch with President Obama, according to the White House.
The lunch, which will take place in the White House's Private Dining Room, will be the pair's first meeting since the election. There will be no press coverage.
In his election night speech, Mr. Obama expressed a desire to meet with Romney "to talk about where we can work together to move this country forward." Doubling down on that idea in his first press conference following the election, the president said that while "we haven't scheduled something yet" because "I think everybody needs to catch their breath," he hoped to have a chance to sit down with his former rival before the end of the year.
"There are certain aspects of Governor Romney's record and his ideas that I think could be very helpful," Mr. Obama told reporters on November 14. "He presented some ideas during the course of the campaign that I actually agree with. And so it'd be interesting to talk to him about something like that."
Romney has kept a relatively low profile since the election, though he and family members were spotted taking a trip to Disneyland, and he posted a photo on Facebook of himself and wife Ann Romney hanging out in the kitchen on the day after Thanksgiving.
According to Eric Fehrnstrom, a top adviser to Romney during the campaign, Romney was "glad to accept" the invite. He'll also visit with former running mate Paul Ryan while he's in Washington.
"It was a gracious invitation from the president, which Mitt Romney was glad to accept," said Fehrnstrom. "Gov. Romney is also meeting with Paul Ryan while in town Thursday."
No menu or further details about the lunch have been announced.

Well, it has a perfect blend of protein but not very filling. The taste is quite good but the consistency is very thin. UPDATE on 3-4-2014 : If you read Natural Health News website, Mike Adam The Health Ranger did a heavy metal test on GOL Raw Protein & it's contain high level of lead, tungsten, & etc. Please go to the web site and check out the lab test. And PLEASE SIGN THE PETITION to limit the heavy metal in rice protein powder on the website. Thank you & God bless.
I just ran out of my usual protein powder, and decided to give this raw protein from Garden of Life a shot. Ordered it with chocolate flavor so that my husband could try it as as well. So far I'm VERY happy with the quality, the taste and the incredible boost this product gives me. After lifting heavy weights and living on a vegan diet, but without protein powder, my body didn't heal as fast as normal. Just two days after I started taking this together with my usual post-workout smoothie, I noticed that my muscles healed quicker and that I could lift heavier weights at the gym. The only negative I have to say is that I wish that there was chocolate flavor was even more chocolaty. I love cacao, so I add an extra tablespoon of pure cacao powder to my smoothies. My post-workout smoothie that really does the trick consist of 1/2 banana, 1/2 avocado, handful of fresh sprouts, handful of fresh spinach, 1 ts bee pollen, 1 ts flax seeds, 1 ts glutamine, 1 scoop Garden of Life protein powder, 1 tbs of cacao powder and two handful of frozen berries and 1/2 cup of rice milk or juice.

Healthiest Protein Powder I Know!

This protein powder tastes good compared to some of the other protein powders of similar healthiness. It's the only protein powder I purchase. It's gentle on the stomach and good for people who have a lot of food allergies. I love that it has probiotics.

This protein is a bit above average in taste and how well it mixes with milk or almond milk. I like that it also contains probiotics and enzymes.

Nice piece....
Not a ringing endorsement of Klinsy:One thing analysts routinely brought up throughout the winter was how much Altidore has improved in attacking third when off the ball. Such improvement, according to Altidore, came mainly as a result of both film sessions and repetition. "We do a lot of video work here, analyzing everything, and that's always the best way to do it because you can see yourself," Altidore explained. "Also, just being in game experiences, because I now recognize when it's the right time to get into a good position, and you can kind of sense and get a sniff of where the ball might go. You can only get that from experience and from playing in games. Luckily for me I've gotten a little exposure to that (due to) playing at a high level this year. I'm not saying I'm perfect at it, but I've definitely improved at trying to be in the right spot for where the ball might pop out or where a cross may enter the box."
When asked about Klinsmann, Altidore first went out of his way to praise former U.S. Soccer coach Bob Bradley. Bradley was dismissed as USMNT coach last July. "I don't think Bob (received) the kind of sendoff he deserved," Altidore said. "He did a lot of good things for the national team. He definitely brought us along. It's important whenever you have these cycles that whoever is put in charge brings (the team) along, and that you always make strides forward. I think Bob did that. As for Jurgen, it was definitely something positive. He's a guy that's played all around Europe and part of the German team. As a coach, we are still trying to know exactly what he wants from us, but I think things are going great. I think Jurgen is doing what he can to get the best out of each player."

I love to unearth delicious foods in unlikely places, so it's a shame that I didn't discover Chef Sheridan Su (former Executive Chef at Comme Ca) when he was serving up Bao to long lines of customers in the back of a hair salon. I'm sure that would have made for an epic tale. After that, Chef Su went mobile with his operation, starting up the "Great Bao" gourmet food truck. Sadly, I missed that as well. By the time I was ready to venture out and place an order at his truck, Su had parked it.
I finally tracked down Su at his latest digs, the Fat Choy restaurant in the Eureka Casino at 595 East Sahara. Fat Choy replaces the old coffee shop for this small locals casino, maintaining a few select items from the original menu and adding in Su's specialties. So, it's Asian American fare – as in you can still get a burger (with bacon, cheddar, egg and short rib) or (kalbi) steak and eggs, but the real reason to come here is the bao. I ordered one of each of their bao offerings on my weekday visit, and now I know why people lined up in a hair salon to eat this man's food.
If you're familiar with the little baskets of Chinese dumplings (bao) at dim sum, then this is the somewhat deconstructed, gourmet version. You get a soft circle of steamed dough about five inches round and maybe half and inch thick, folded over duck confit or braised pork belly and topped with tasty sauces and fresh vegetables and spices. It eats sort of like a cross between a sandwich and a taco – definitely finger food.
I dove into the Peking Duck Bao ($7) first. It contains flavorful duck, cucumber and scallion with a tangy hoisin sauce. It tastes fresh and flavorful, but the duck, being, well… meaty, makes this bao hard to keep together while you eat. It's worth the effort though. Just make sure any stray bits fall on your plate so you can scoop them back up again. It's a good dish, but if you can only try one (and I'm a huge fan of duck), go for the pork belly.It's not that the peking duck isn't good enough to recommend, but the Pork Belly Bao ($7) are truly amazing! The pork belly is marinated overnight, braised 6 hours and topped with mustard greens, peanut and fresh cilantro. The pork belly is soft and flavorful like none I have ever tasted. This bao holds together beautifully because the pork belly comes out even more tender than the steamed dough that surrounds it. The wonderful flavors of this bao lingered on my palate even after a few sips of their fresh brewed iced tea ($1.65). Food like this, I believe, is why people have followed Chef Su wherever he chooses to cook.
Service was very friendly and attentive. Without any provocation on my part, I was rewarded with my choice of free dessert because the waitress felt I had been kept waiting too long (perhaps the food came out a touch slow, but I hadn't begun to loose patience). I chose the Boston Creme Bundt Cake ($3). It was a small, personal sized yellow bundt cake, fairly solid and sweet with Boston creme flavor frosting on top and filling the center. There was a light drizzle of chocolate on top. This was good, but having grown up on Boston creme doughnuts, I'd say it needs a bit more chocolate and a little less creme. It's still good as is, especially if you have a bit of a sweet tooth, and a bargain at only three bucks.
The bao alone is worth the trip to this little restaurant. Get there before the rest of the foodie world hears that they can get Chef Su's delicious pork belly bao in the latest of unlikely places – inside the Eureka locals casino on East Sahara. Soon, I'm sure, they will once again be beating a path to his door.
- Fat choy is a Chinese vegetable that, when prepared, looks an awful lot like human hair. Clever, eh?
- Fat Choy is open Monday – Thursday 11am – 10pm, Friday – Saturday 11am – Midnight and Sunday 9am – 10pm.
- If you want your bao vegetarian style, hit up the Sunday Brunch (all day Sunday) for Tofu and Mushroom Bao ($6) and save a buck over its meaty brethren.
- In addition to the iced tea, Fat Choy offers bottled sodas, including some Asian specialties ($3), canned soda ($2) and beer ($4.50 Stella, $5.50 Kirin talls).

During seminar the other day, when speaking about subobject classifiers, I asked if the subobject classifier for the category of multisets would have integer truth values, corresponding to the number of times and element is in the set. We attempted to show this, but quickly realized that we were not even sure of the "correct" category for multisets.
To clarify, when I say correct I want my category to
- Have objects identified by multisets
- Have maps between the multisets be on the level of elements in the multiset, and forget the order of those elements, e.g. there is only one map {111223}->{55}
- The subobject classifier will behave as I had hoped, with {1} having truth value 3 in {111}
My question is;
Can you construct a category satisfying these properties?
Thanks in advance!
EDIT: First, sorry about not checking nLab, I forget about that site far too often. Second, I should say that I have a little bit of motivation for my property two. So let me clarify what I meant in property two. Given a multiset, it can be thought of as a pair $S\times\mathbb{N}$ for a set $S$. Now, when considering morphisms between multisets I want the maps $f,g:\lbrace 1122\rbrace\rightarrow\lbrace34\rbrace$ such that $f$ sends
$\begin{eqnarray*} 1&\mapsto& 3,\\ 1&\mapsto& 4,\\ 2&\mapsto& 3,\\ 2&\mapsto& 4\\ \end{eqnarray*}$
and $g$ sends
$\begin{eqnarray*} 1&\mapsto& 4,\\ 1&\mapsto& 3,\\ 2&\mapsto& 4,\\ 2&\mapsto& 3\\ \end{eqnarray*}$
to be the same morphism. But if $h$ sends
$\begin{eqnarray*} 1&\mapsto& 4,\\ 1&\mapsto& 4,\\ 2&\mapsto& 4,\\ 2&\mapsto& 3\\ \end{eqnarray*}$
then $h$ is not the same as $g$ or $f$. Further I would like it such that $\lbrace 112\rbrace$ is not a subobject of $\lbrace 12\rbrace$ but it is a subobject of $\lbrace 11122\rbrace$.
Hopefully this will clear it up.

I am not a (complex) analyst but it seems that some of the questions I am working on are related to the following concepts:
- logarithmic capacity
- transfinite diameter
- Green's function of a compact set
- System of Fekete points
- upper regularization
I have looked at various books but some of them are very old (e.g., Hille's Analytic function theory which was published in 1962), and most of them just explain the subject briefly. I am looking for references which are more on the advanced side rather than elementary, to be able to find in them the results I need.
Any suggestions?

For wall sized graphics and large banners (e.g 3m x 5m), what is an acceptable PPI for print.
As i understand it 300 PPI is the typical for 'small' artworks (esp. for clean text resolution), however for small artworks the audience usually engages at a much closer distance. Therefore in the interests of keeping a bitmap file down to a resonable size can you get away with a much reduced PPI for a large format/banner print?
