This was my first visit to Peerless Restaurant and it was one of the best in all my fine dining experiences. The staff is professional, yet warm, friendly and knowledgeable of the menu. The atmosphere is lovely. Each plate is photo perfect in its artistic presentation and the portions are perfect. My two friends had filet mignon and I had the special, Chilean Sea Bass, which was awesome. The steaks were substantial and cooked as ordered. The wine list is extensive with an impressive variety. The evening was spent with my two best friends visiting from out of state and we couldn't have been more pleased with the choice.

Successful restoration of ephemeral wetlands worldwide is particularly challenging, given the often-precise relationship between hydrological features and plant community dynamics. Using a long-term experiment in vernal pool restoration, we compare hydrological and vegetative characteristics of constructed pools with those of adjacent, naturally occurring reference pools. Although constructed and reference pools were similar in maximum water depth and duration of inundation at the beginning of our experiment in 2000, constructed pools were shallower and inundated for shorter periods by 2009. Native vernal pool species were able to establish populations in many constructed pools, and seeding sped their establishment. Comparing seeded plots in constructed pools with unseeded plots in reference pools, we found no significant difference in the cover of seeded species, native species, or exotic species in most years. In recent years, however, native species have declined in both constructed and reference pools. Finally, the cover of native vernal pool species was positively and non-linearly associated with both water depth and seeding treatment. We conclude that the establishment of appropriate hydrological conditions was necessary, but not sufficient to promote successful performance of vernal pool species in constructed pools. Constructed pools with hydrologic conditions similar to those of reference pools were more likely to support populations of native vernal pool plant species, but only seeded pools were similar to reference pools in abundance of native cover. Most importantly, hydrological conditions in experimental pools have worsened since their construction, which may hamper persistence of native species in this restoration effort.

A small RNA encoded within the nucleus is an essential subunit of a RNA processing endonuclease (RNase MRP) hypothesized to generate primers for mitochondrial DNA replication from the heavy strand origin of replication. Controversy has arisen, however, concerning the authenticity of an intramitochondrial pool of MRP RNA, and has called into question the existence of pathways for nucleo-mitochondrial transport of nucleic acids in animal cells. In an effort to resolve this controversy, we combined ultrastructural in situ hybridization and biochemical techniques to assess the subcellular partitioning of MRP RNA. Cryosections of mouse cardiomyocytes were hybridized with biotin- labeled RNA probes complementary to different regions of MRP RNA and varying in length from 115 to 230 nucleotides, followed by immunogold labeling. In addition, we transfected mouse C2C12 myogenic cells with constructs bearing mutated forms of the mouse MRP RNA gene and compared the relative abundance of the resulting transcripts to that of control RNAs within whole cell and mitochondrial fractions. In the former analysis we observed preferential localization of MRP RNA to nucleoli and mitochondria in comparison to the nucleoplasm and cytoplasm. In the latter series of studies we observed that wild-type MRP RNA partitions to the mitochondrial fraction by comparison to other RNA transcripts that are localized to the extramitochondrial cytoplasmic space (28S rRNA) or to the nucleoplasm (U1 snRNA). Deletions within 5' or 3' regions of the MRP RNA gene produced transcripts that remain competent for mitochondrial targeting. In contrast, deletion of the midportion of the coding region (nt 118 to 175) of the MRP RNA gene resulted in transcripts that fail to partition to the mitochondrial fraction. We conclude that an authentic intramitochondrial pool of MRP RNA is present in these actively respiring cells, and that specific structural determinants within the MRP RNA molecule permit it to be partitioned to mitochondria.

Q: Is there a way to identify tracks on my iPod that currently have no tag information? Somehow, some of my favorite music on my iPod is completely without identifying information, making it very hard to navigate to and organize, and impossible to expand upon.
- David
A: We admit: when we need to recover information for a mystery track, we still find ourselves typing snippets of the lyrics into Google. It usually works fairly well, although not for more obscure (or certainly instrumental!) tracks.
However, a new method is arising: waveform recognition or "frequency fingerprinting." New software like ID3Man can check the actual audio characteristics of untagged songs against a database of approximately 3 million existing songs, to determine what's playing. In our testing, it actually worked for the majority of our test CD-ripped (not live or obscure) tracks, so give it a shot! The company offers 25 free identifications to start with, after which you begin to pay various prices.

So….What do you get when you put together the combined annual US revenue of Kroger, Costco, The Home Depot and Walgreen? A company that would still have sales short of Walmart, by mmore than $20 billion.
As most people know, Walmart is the largest retailer in the US (and world). The other four above round out the top five. This, and some other interesting information, can be found in a National Retail Federation report of the top 100 retailers.
The list also reveals the big chains that are experiencing the most expansion. Not including those that grew by acquisitions, like Bed Bath & Beyond's purchase of Cost Plus, the biggest movers were: Darden Restaurants, up 9.5%; Tractor Supply Co., up 8.4%; WinCo Foods, up 7.5%; Dick's Sporting Goods, up 7.1%; and Nordstrom, up 6.7%.
Not surprisingly, leaders in organic sales growth were Amazon.com and Apple Stores. Niether were the largest restaurant chains by revenue. In order: McDonald's, Yum! Brands, Subway, Wendy's and Starbucks.

Memorial Day Speech - A Legacy of Liberty. In the opening lines of the poem "In Flanders Fields"...In Flanders Field, the poppies blow/Between the crosses, row on row..." was the inspiration for Moina Michael's idea of wearing red poppies on Memorial Day. When the Overseas War Secretaries met at the annual conference in New York City before the Armistice was signed at the end of WWI, the delegates gave Ms. Michael's $10 in recognition of her help with the conference. She took the money and spent it on 25 red silk poppies to hand out to participants. (Some say she made them herself.) From there she began her campaign to make the poppy a national symbol of remembrance. Two years later the American Legion adopted it at its own conference, and poppies have symbolized Memorial Day ever since continued

Nancy, This was fantastic! I have served this many times, thank you for the recipe! I did not add the orange juice. I have made this many times, and have found it helpful to use the cream cheese at room temp.
This recipe is divine, and so easy! We use it to get the children to eat fruit, if you can believe that. I do add the orange juice, as it gives it a nice kick.

Rushford City Council Report: Rushford officials respond to drought conditions
Fri, Aug 29th, 2003
Posted in Features
Posted in Features
At the advice of Public Works Director Jeff Copley, the Rushford City Council urged voluntary citizen cooperation in water conservation at the August 25th council meeting. Citizens have been asked to refrain from watering lawns and washing cars until the drought situation lessens. Exceptions were made for new lawns and newly planted trees. With the aquifer that feeds well #2 down, Copley was concerned that the pump might start pumping air and get ruined. If well #2 were to go down, the city would need to use well #4, a well known for its bad water quality and considered a back-up emergency well.
Fire Chief Mike Ebner has declared a moratorium on all burning in the city, canceling all burning permits until the drought is over. This includes previously issued burning permits and fire rings at the city campground and throughout the city. Both Copley and Ebner had expressed concern with the current methods of communicating this information with the citizenry. The council opted to call radio stations with public service announcements as well as using the local cable access station and newspapers. Water Improvements With the discussion of the water shortage, it seemed only appropriate to discuss the status of the city water improvement project. Councilman Ron Mierau told the council that three sites were being considered for the circulation pump placement: next to the city garage, between the liquor store and the firehall, and along the driveway north of the old Mobil station. No decision has been made on the sites yet, nor has a timeline been set. Mayor T. S. Roberton asked if the city employees could lay the necessary waterline once the project has been engineered. Some of the work includes directional boring for which the city doesn�t have the equipment, but there is a possibility city employees could do other work on the project and do much of the refurbishing on well #3. Other business Other business of the evening included: � Submitting a permit application to MNDOT to work in DOT right of way to create a gravel underpass under the north end bridge; � Deciding to fix the fence at the Creekside tennis courts, but to leave the painting of basketball court lines for possible volunteers; � Agreeing to make a dumping station for the campground at the waste treatment plant; � Okaying a six-month trial period for a credit card terminal at the liquor store; � Hearing of a future proposal for a Houston-Rushford equestrian trail.

"Romney becomes first candidate in 16-year history to decline Presidential Youth Debate."

The final scene in this series of three paintings is set under the Adelphi arches, by the River Thames. The Art Journal described them as 'the lowest of all the profound deeps of human abandonment in this metropolis'. The woman shelters a young child, the result of her affair. The posters behind her advertise two plays – Victims and The Cure for Love – and 'Pleasure excursions to Paris'. These are ironic comments on her situation. This is a social moralist series of paintings but it is left to the viewer to decide whether the woman is to be pitied or condemned.

Congress passed a bill allocating $100 billion for war spending without a timetable for troop withdrawal. CongressionalDemocrats allowed the vote to reach the House and Senate floors despite widespread opposition among their ranks because they didn't want to go on Memorial Day break while soldiers remained wanting. Ten Democratic senators including Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton voted against the bill. "I was very disappointed to see Senator Obama and Senator Clinton embrace the policy of surrender," said Senator John McCain. "This vote may win favor with MoveOn and liberal primary voters, but it's the equivalent of waving a white flag to Al Qaeda." Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi told reporters she would "never vote for such a thing" just before finalizing the bill with Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, who called the legislation proof of "great progress." Senate Majority Whip Richard J. Durbin told his Democratic colleagues that he would reluctantly support the measure because "we do not have it within our power to make the will of America the law of the land."New York TimesReuters via Yahoo!

In Havana, the past year has been marked by a parade of bold-faced names from the north — John Kerry reopening the United States Embassy; Andrew Cuomo bringing a delegation of American business leaders; celebrities ranging from Joe Torre, traveling on behalf of Major League Baseball to oversee an exhibition game between the Tampa Bay Rays and the Cuban national team, to Jimmy Buffett, said to be considering opening one of his Margaritaville restaurants there. All this culminated with a three-day trip in March by Barack Obama, the first American president to visit Cuba since Calvin Coolidge in 1928. But to those who know the city well, perhaps nothing said as much about the transformation of political relations between the United States and Cuba that began in December 2014 as a concert in the Tribuna Antiimperialista.

Samsung i8510 review
Mark Peters : February 5th 2009 - 20:05 CET
Samsung i8510 review at LetsGoMobile :
A mobile phone and digital photography have become so intertwined over the past few years, that there's no possibility of ever separating them again. A camera simply belongs on a cell phone. It started several years ago with a simple VGA camera, after which it soon became possible to shoot high resolution pictures with a mobile phone. With the i8510, Samsung has the scoop here, since it is the first mobile phone on the European market that boasts an 8.0 Megapixel digital camera.• Read the full

Samsung i8510 review - 8 Megapixel camera phone
It may be clear; being the first 8.0 Megapixel digital camera on a mobile phone for the European market is an important feature of the Samsung i8510. Upon activating the camera, the lens cover is automatically removed; this is very pleasant to work with and looks quite cool. Starting the camera application is quite fast. The entire screen is used as viewfinder and has a swift response. Even when you slide the phone to close it, the camera remains on, however, when still open, it is just a tad easier to hold it with two hands, preventing blurred pictures due to movements of the photographer's hand. Focusing takes quite a while as usual, however, the focus does turn out extremely accurate. Also in macro mode up close.
Samsung i8510 review - White balance & ISO sensitivities
The white balance of the Samsung i8510 shows nice results. The i8510 is quite effective when it comes to filtering out color cast in order to obtain a neutral exposure. In an environment with an overflow of incandescent light, it becomes more difficult and the effect of color cast will increase. One could call the increased ISO a marketing hype. Sensitivities up to and including 1600 ISO seem to appeal to the photographic orientated user, though, in practice, the quality leaves a lot to be desired. Up to ISO 200 the picture is reasonable, however from ISO 400 noise increases significantly and the image quality drops drastically.

Embodiments of the invention relate to vehicles with multiple driven axles, and, certain embodiments relate particularly to all-terrain vehicles equipped for front wheel drive.
Vehicles, and particularly all-terrain vehicles (ATV's) are intended for use on a variety of different surfaces, including dry pavement, dirt, grass, slippery surfaces such as ice, and gravel. Typically, such vehicles are driven by their back wheels, but allowance is made for providing torque also to the front wheels when the back wheels slip, as, for example, when a vehicle becomes mired in mud. It is not uncommon for an ATV to have a rear differential to enable it to be steered easily in a tight circle without dragging a rear wheel on the ground and doing damage to the surface upon which the vehicle is being driven, i.e., turf at a golf course. On the other hand, it is often important to be able to lock the rear differential so that both rear wheels, rather than simply the slipping or mired wheel, is driven. Differential gearing also can be employed at the front of a vehicle, as when the front wheel drive is continuously engaged. Here, either the front differential, the rear differential, or both, may be "locked up" so that torque is delivered by the engine to each wheel. Front wheel drive vehicles in which both front wheels are continuously driven, as when a front differential is locked, commonly are difficult to steer and accordingly are unpleasant to drive.
Double acting overrunning clutches have been employed in certain operations to allow a driven member to rotate faster than a drive member; see, for example, U.S. Pat. No. 3,194,369. Roller clutches have been used in transfer cases of certain four wheel drive vehicles to engage the front axle when the rear wheels begin to spin; see U.S. Pat. No. 3,295,625. U.S. Pat. No. 5,036,939 describes a vehicle having a pair of steerable wheels, each steerable wheel including a hub having a double acting overrunning clutch. Here, the front axle is preferably geared so that the front wheels are driven by the ground at a rotational speed approximately 10-30% faster than the front axle such that when the rotational speed of the front axle catches up to the ground-driven rotational speed of the front wheels (as when the rear wheels are spinning), the clutch will transmit torque from the front axles to the front wheels.
It would be desirable to provide a four wheel vehicle such as an ATV that would automatically transfer torque to one or both front wheels in response to slippage of either or both of the rear wheels, and would accomplish this purpose in a manner that would continue to provide torque to the front wheels only when needed.
One embodiment of the present invention provides a vehicle having front and rear wheels, an engine, and a power train for supplying torque to the front and rear wheels. The power train includes a front wheel drive portion comprising a driving member and a driven member, and includes a clutch pack having an actuator that is switchable between on and off positions. When in the off position, the actuator permits the driven member to turn freely and independently of the driving member. When on, the actuator enables the clutch pack to respond to predetermined minimum differences in rotational speed between the driving and driven members to lock these members together to rotationally couple the engine to at least one of the front wheels. Desirably, as long as torque continues to be delivered to the front wheels, the clutch pack continues to rotationally couple the engine to at least one front wheel. However, when torque is no longer needed to be supplied to the front wheels, as when the average speed of the back wheels and the front wheels is essentially the same, the actuator returns to its off position.
Several embodiments of the invention relate to a vehicle utilizing one and preferably several clutch packs, each having an actuator that can be switched between on and off positions. Clutch packs of the multi-plate design are known to the art, and need not be described in detail. One such clutch pack is made by FCC (Thailand) Co., Ltd. These clutch packs have the capacity of locking together two rotating members, of which one may be called the driving member and the other the driven member. The driving member, for example, may be a ring gear in the front gear case of an ATV, and the driven member may be the shaft that is attached to the wheel. Clutch packs useful in practicing embodiments of the invention have an additional feature in that, before they become operational to lock driving and driven members together, they must be activated. These clutch packs have an actuator that can be switched between on and off positions. When an actuator is in an on position, the clutch pack is activated so that it becomes responsive to certain sensed differences in rotational speed between the driven and driving members, and locks the members together in response to sensing such speed differential. Moreover, once one of these clutch pack locks together the driving and driven members, such members continue to be rotationally locked together for as long as torque continues to be transmitted from the driving member to the driven member.
The clutch packs employed in the invention may be operated electrically, mechanically or hydraulically, but preferably the actuators are activated electronically and automatically. In one embodiment, an ATV is provided with a rider-operated switch enabling the rider to choose between two-wheel drive and four-wheel drive. Selection by the rider of two wheel drive disables the clutch packs from becoming activated, e.g., by maintaining the actuators in their off positions or by simply cutting electric power to the actuators.
In the embodiment of
A vehicle of an embodiment of the invention is shown schematically as 10 in
In one embodiment, clutch packs 36, 38 are located at the front wheel hubs and serve to transmit torque from the front half axles 32, 34 to the respective hubs. Torque from the engine 16 is delivered forwardly through drive shaft 28 and is distributed to the front axle halves by the angle drive 30. Prop shaft 20 delivers torque rearwardly to the rear axle angle drive 18, which then supplies torque to the rear half axles 22, 24 and thence to the rear wheels 14. In this embodiment, speed sensors 40 are positioned to measure the rotational speed of each wheel. Through the use of a controller 42, the speed of the front wheels is averaged and is compared with the average of the rotational speed of the rear wheels. If differences of more than a set percentage, such as 1 to 2%, are sensed between the average speeds of the front and rear wheels (indicating, for example, that one of the rear wheels had begun to slip), the controller momentarily switches on the actuators of the clutch packs 36, 38.
Once the clutch packs have thus been activated, each clutch pack will lock its respective front half axle to a wheel hub if and only if the rotational speed of the axle and the rotational speed of the hub differ. With some clutch packs, this is accomplished through the use of a ball ramp structure. That is, in the event of a speed difference, a ball and ramp carried by the driving and driven members (or vice versa) rotate with respect to each other, causing the ball to ride up the ramp to lock up the clutch pack. When this has occurred, the torque transferred through the clutch pack from the driving member to the driven member will maintain this condition. If there is no torque transmission, however, a return spring or the like in the clutch pack will reset the positions of the ball and ramp. As to ball and ramp structures, reference is made to U.S. Pat. No. 5,036,939, the teachings of which are incorporated herein by reference.
Periodically—that is, every second or so—the controller will switch off the actuator of each clutch pack. As long as torque continues to be supplied to the front wheels by the front half axles, the clutch packs will remain in their locked position. The controller continues to monitor wheel speed. If the sensed average rotational speeds of the front and rear tires continue to differ by more than a few percent, the clutch packs are reactivated, and the cycle begins again. However, at such time as no further speed difference is detected (for example, when the rear wheels have stopped slipping), the actuators remain in their switched off condition and the front wheels are permitted to rotate freely on the front half axles. The slight amount of leeway or play (e.g., 1-2%, as indicated above) between the average speeds of the front and rear tires enable the front wheels to travel at different speeds, as, for example, when a turn is made, without activation of the clutch packs.
The speed sensors 40, which sense the rotational speed of the respective wheels, desirably are mounted at or near the hubs of the wheels, but may, in fact, be mounted elsewhere in the drive system. For example, in the absence of a rear differential, the average rotational speed of the rear wheels may be assumed to be a linear function of the rotational speed of the drive shaft 20, and thus only the rotational speed of the drive shaft need be measured. It will also be understood that although the clutch packs 36, 38 are activated simultaneously by the controller 42, the clutch packs 36, 38 may act independently of each other, depending on relative speed differences.
Although the invention has thus far been described primarily in connection with clutch packs that serve to connect the front half axles with the wheel hubs, it should be understood that the clutch packs may be placed elsewhere in the second drive train leading from the engine to the front wheels. For example, the clutch packs may be placed between the ring and pinion gear 30 and each of the half axles 32, 34. In another embodiment, only a single clutch pack is employed, that clutch pack being employed between the engine 16 and the drive shaft 28, or between the drive shaft 28 and the pinion gear 30.
Once the front clutch packs have been activated and deliver torque to the front wheels, an ATV of the invention may become noticeably harder to steer. For each front wheel, a steer angle is achieved by rotation of the wheel about a steer rotation axis, which commonly is referred to as the "kingpin" axis even though the axis may be established by ball joints or the like.
The clutch packs employed in the present invention work in either direction. That is, in addition to locking the front wheels to the front half drive axles when the rear wheels are spinning, a similar lock up may occur when the rear wheels are being braked such that the average rotational speed of the rear wheels is substantially less than the average rotational speed of the front wheels. As this occurs, lock up of the front wheels will again take place, and the front wheels are employed to aid in the braking effort. This may occur, for example, when the vehicle uses the engine to help brake and one or both of the rear wheels begin to skid during the braking operation.
Although the vehicle of the invention has been described thus far as having a driven front drive shaft 28 that continuously delivers torque to the front half axles 32, 34, it should be understood that the front drive system 26 may include a clutch pack that enables the front axles to be rotationally disconnected or unlocked from the engine to enable the vehicle to be switched between two wheel (rear wheel) drive and four wheel drive. Of course, as mentioned earlier, when two wheel (rear wheel) drive is selected, the clutch packs are not activated, regardless of wheel slippage.
While preferred embodiments of the present invention have been described, it should be understood that various changes, adaptations and modifications may be made therein without departing from the spirit of the invention and the scope of the appended claims.

TRIVIA: In this episode it's shown that Max and Isabel live at 6025 Murray Lane.
While Isabel & Alex are on Liz's bed in the background a Star of David is visible. This might mean Liz is Jewish or might refer to Shiri Appleby who in fact is Jewish.
After Nasedo changes Michael's clothes into the FBI suit, the camera switches to a shot from behind Michael and he is wearing his jean jacket again.
When Isabel is in hysterics after she enters Max's mind to help locate him, Michael is holding her head in his hands. His hands abruptly vanish when she finishes talking about Pierce.
As Michael, Isabel, and Tess are observing the hand scanner, the door and the agent using it move exactly the same way twice: once after he opens the door and again on a closeup on the scanner. Both times the agent steps to the left and the door begins to open.
In the morgue, Michael flies back and hits the door twice.
After Nasedo reveals himself in the morgue, there is a shot on Michael's face. There is no sound, but Nasedo can be seen in the foreground either talking animatedly or having an extremely localized seizure.
After Max charges Pierce against the wall of the White Room, his hands change from gripping Pierce's jacket to merely set against his chest.
In the scene where Pierce uses the VR goggles on Max, Max lowers his head while Pierce is talking to him, but the next shot over Max's shoulder shows that he hasn't moved at all.
At the end of the interrogation where Max agrees to reveal the second communicator, Pierce skips from standing a few feet in front of Max and facing him to standing directly next to him with his nose at Max's cheek.
Pierce reaches for the bone saw with his left hand but picks it up with his right hand.
Michael: How can you do this? How can you kill all these people? You don't care, do you?
Nasedo: Michael, if you want to survive, if you want to get back home, you've got to be willing to fight for that. You understand?
Michael: You're not who I thought you'd be.
Nasedo: Neither are you.
Max (to Pierce): Who's inhuman now?
Nasedo: It's inside of you. You're programmed.
Michael: Hey, I didn't get the manual, ok? All this time I've been alone. Where have you been? Where the hell have you been? Why did you let this happen to us... to me?
Nasedo: Emotions are a weakness, Michael. Focus.
Max: You're evil.
Pierce: I'm evil? I'm risking my life to save my country, my planet, from being colonized by alien life - by you.
Nasedo: Humans are weak, which doesn't bother me, and wasteful. Their brains are incredible machines they haven't even begun to learn to use. When you were engineered you were given the capacity to do everything the human brain is capable of.
Michael: You mean, besides our powers.
Nasedo: Those are your powers, Michael. Everything you can do is human. You're just programmed to be a several thousand years ahead of the rest of mankind, that's all. But from what I saw earlier, you barely tapped in to what you're capable of...
Nasedo: I can shape-shift into any of these agents: take their form, even their fingerprints. That's why they added the X-ray scanner. My bone structure is far from human. I can change my appearance, but not what's on the inside. Your bone structure, on the other hand, is one hundred percent human.
Michael: So, you're different from me?
Nasedo: Biology lessons later.
Michael: I have been looking for you for a long time.
Nasedo: Not as long as I've been looking for you.
Nasedo: That isn't some deadbolt up there. That door is made up of depleted Uranium; a metal composed of heavy atoms, which we can't manipulate.
Isabel: We can't.
Nasedo: You have many limitations.
Michael: They know about them?
Nasedo: They know more about you than you do. They've been studying us for fifty years.
Nasedo: I have 4 of you to watch now.
Liz: You guys aren't going there without me.
Tess: No. Look, you want the truth? You're liabilities, all three of you. We've got a better chance of saving Max without you, and that's what this is all about, right?
Liz: Bring him back to me.
Michael: I will.
Tess: We'd better hurry.
Maria: You come back to me.
Max: Why are you doing this to me?
Pierce: You know, I might not have been around in 1947, but I know all about the Crash. About the 4 aliens they captured, 2 dead, 2 alive. I've spent my entire career studying the documentation. Especially the 3 years of observation they've made on the the one held in captivity. Right here, in this room.
Max: I thought you said there were 4.
Pierce: One of them escaped. Nasedo. Isn't that what you call him?
Max: You're the deputy?
Pierce: You have your tricks, I have mine.
Max: Who do you think I am?
Pierce: That's what we've been trying to find out at the lab. You know, there's something very strange about your X-rays... something that doesn't make sense. They're completely human: your bone structure, your organs, circulatory and pulmonary systems. Everything human. But. Here's where things get really strange. These are your blood cells. Completely not human. Still want me to call your parents? I told you Max: I know what you are, so now you're going to start answering my questions. Delta, Colorado, 1962, Agent Lewis, the first head of this Special Unit was found dead. His internal organs had reached a temperature of 180 degrees Fahrenheit. A silver handprint was found on his chest. What do you know about that?
Even though he's credited, Nick Wechsler (Kyle Valenti) does not appear in this episode.

EARTH CITY, Mo. -- The St. Louis Rams' and coach Jeff Fisher's decision to hire Gregg Williams as defensive coordinator should serve as a compelling reminder that speaking in absolutes when it comes to the NFL is the quickest path to being wrong.
On Thursday afternoon, Fisher and Williams stood before a large crowd of media and Rams employees smiling from ear-to-ear and basking in a moment that was two years in the making. It was a moment that didn't seem possible as recently as a month ago, let alone over the course of the past 24 months.
When Fisher stepped to the podium on Thursday, nobody was quite certain what he was going to say or how he was going to address the elephant in the room. So much had happened in the past two years that it was hard to envision Williams and Fisher rekindling a once close friendship.
But Fisher wasted no time acknowledging this wasn't a decision he came to lightly. In fact, he answered about five questions in his opening statement.
"I reached out to Gregg in late January and we spent several days together, discussing the past, putting the past behind us, discussing the present and the future and direction of where we wanted to go with our defense," Fisher said. "I also had a conversation with the commissioner (Roger Goodell), who not only endorsed Gregg but felt Gregg would be a good move for this organization. Gregg and I came to terms with a lot of things. We worked out an agreement."
At this time of year, most agreements center on signing bonuses, performance incentives and guaranteed money. This one had nothing to do with any of that.
This was about two old friends getting back to where they once were, to rebuilding trust that had once yielded one of the league's most dominant defenses and a whole lot of victories.
When Fisher initially tabbed Williams to be his defensive coordinator in 2012, he was taken aback soon after when the NFL suspended Williams for his role in the bounty scandal with the New Orleans Saints. The news made the difficult process of hiring a coaching staff that much tougher. Williams was not allowed to have contact with the coaching staff and Fisher was left short-handed.
It would be understandable if Fisher was still bitter about finding himself without any strong coordinator options in his first year on the job. He already had enough on his plate trying to re-shape the franchise.
By Fisher's own admission, he rarely spoke to Williams after his suspension and even last year when Williams was in Tennessee.
"I had very little discussion with Gregg when he left," Fisher said.
With Williams out of the picture, his son Blake became the sort of de facto coordinator, calling the plays for the defense with Fisher's guidance. The younger Williams was regarded by players as a bright football mind who struggled with his bedside manner. On the Rams' experienced and veteran coaching staff, Blake Williams wasn't a fit and Fisher let him go at the end of the 2012 season.
The Rams moved on and named Tim Walton as coordinator for 2013. Meanwhile, the relationship between Fisher and Williams didn't seem to improve. In the week leading up to the Rams' meeting with Tennessee on Nov. 3, Fisher shed little light on the situation.
"[We last spoke] probably sometime last fall," Fisher said that week. "We were prohibited to have contact with him but we got permission from the commissioner and we had a conversation or two."
Fisher said he'd probably speak to Williams before the game but that was about all he had to say about Williams. Tennessee beat the Rams 28-21 that week and Fisher noticed traces of Williams' influence all over Tennessee's defense and in watching the film before the game.
With the Rams' defense failing to take the next step to becoming a top-10 group and Tennessee enjoying a major turnaround from being one of the worst defensive units in the league, Fisher began his postseason evaluations. He kept coming back to the original blueprint he brought with him to St. Louis. He even knew that reaching out to Williams had potential to be awkward.
"I just felt really strongly about just pulling it together," Fisher said. "I think I caught him by surprise by initiating the conversation and the contact but again like I said, we spent a couple days together and at that point I was convinced it was going to work."
Undoubtedly, Williams wasn't the only one caught by the surprise of his potential return to St. Louis. During the course of his comments Thursday afternoon, Williams hit on the heart of the matter.
"We're in the winning-games business," Williams said. "This is a great game. It's a production business."
Above all else, the chance to win cures all; even friendships that once seemed beyond repair.

Product Description
From Amazon
This title is divided into four parts. The first two offer an overview and tutorial for CSS and DHTML in turn. Part 3 is a short guide to two popular tools, Adobe GoLive and Macromedia Dreamweaver. The fourth section puts it all together, with coverage of menus and controls, special effects, multimedia, and general guidance on effective web design. There are several appendices, including a skimpy reference.
The author takes a pragmatic approach, explaining how to build pages that work in both Navigator and Internet Explorer, and including brief coverage of browser-specific features. There is some coverage of Netscape 6.0, with its much-improved DHTML support. Although the author has a brief look at web design tools, the main focus is on the code itself. This is not an in-depth guide, and other titles such as Eric Meyer's Cascading Style Sheets 2.0 have more detail. The advantage of this title is its friendly style, plentiful tips, and clear step-by-step examples, making it a good starting point for those wanting to move on from basic HTML. --Tim Anderson
From the Back Cover
Add dynamic interactivity to your Web site with DHTML and Cascading Style Sheets!
- Targeted to designers and content creators, not just programmers.

This edition offers full cross-platform and cross-browser coverage. This book does not focus on the more complex aspects of DHTML, but focuses on practical examples of what really works with DHTML and CSS, making it useful for beginners just starting out with DHTML, as well as professional developers looking for a quick reference.See all Product Description

Top Customer Reviews
Mr. Cranford-Teague has taken the trouble to explain both the documented use and the real-world implementation of CSS. He has taken away much of the testing that is often required when designing against the CSS2 specification. (He makes mistakes so you don't have to!) His quick reference appendix of what-style-elements-work-where should be the most heavily thumbed pages of any book in your HTML design library.
The book is small, and cheap enough to keep up with the latest browser platforms. I own all three versions, and so do all my associate developers!
The DHTML section is short on foundations and uses object-oriented code without explaining how or why that aspect works. It embodies the worst of the Visual Quickstart Guide format: cursory descriptions (at best) for the first appearance of a bit of code, then it glosses over every subsequent use with not even a reminder. Thus it's not a good choice for someone new to Javascript or programming, and those who are familiar with Javascript and web design would probably choose another method over the bloated, API-style programming in this book.
If you're mostly interested in using Javascript's styles object in concert with CSS, this is a poor choice. Peachpit's Javascript book is easier to use and more in tune with web standards.
The navigation scripts he provides shows his complete grasp of both CSS and javascript. Unlike the examples in sites like javascriptkit.com and dynamicdrive.com which are written by javascript gurus, JCT's scripts are hybrid models of both advanced CSS and javascript. The code and mark-up combination are so tightly written, it is absolutely necessary that every web developer gets this book. You won't find code like this anywhere else on the web!
Also, JCT provides excellent examples of code that shows the new directions taken by the Mozilla development team. He reveals a way of making rounded corners using only a few lines of CSS, and no graphics.
My one caveat is that the editors of JCT's 3rd edition did a piss-poor job of copy-checking. On the second chapter, one of the paragraphs in the tips section is duplicated word-for-word. And on page 105, the example is missing a period, thereby making it completely useless unless you spot the mistake. These are only the ones I spotted as I flipped through the book -- I am certain there are many more errors. Buyer beware!
The next night I went to a different bookstore to find some ASP manuals. While there, I noticed another book on CSS so I added it to my ASP pile.
When I got home and started reading DHTML and CSS by Mr. Teague, I found it was not only easy to understand, it was delightful to read. It was better than having a friendly person sitting next to me in a hands-on session. This is the first computer manual that I can say this about, and I have a small library.
As it turns out, by accident I bought two copies of the book - I was rushing the second time because the store was closing. I've decided to keep one copy downstairs handy in my computer room and the other upstairs by my bed to browse before sleep.
If you have a chance, pick the book up and look inside. It's so easy to use it's actually fun. You need to know HTML and be familiar with JavaScript, which the author alerts you about. I'm looking forward to getting this book grubby.
Once I got past the CSS section of this book, the author's definitions and explanations became cryptic and the tips consist of heavy criticism of Netscape and Microsoft. The website is a good start to supporting a book with syntax errors that doesn't indicate when it is referring to literals or when there is a space in something, or not. Personally, I would have preferred the CD.
This book is very good for CSS. However, it is not worth the price if more than half the book is not easily understandable to the person reading it with no previous experience in the language and its a waste of valuable time trying to understand it.
