Abundance and richness are the two fundamental components of speciesdiversity. They represent two distinct types of variables of which the formerisadditive when aggregated across scales while the latter is nonadditive. Thisstudy investigated the changes in the spatial patterns of abundance andrichnessof tree species across multiple scales in a tropical rain forest of Malaysiaandtheir variations in different regions of the study area. The results showedthatfrom fine to coarse scales abundance had a gradual and systematic change inpattern, whereas the change in richness was much less predictable and a'hotspot' in richness at one scale may become a'coldspot' at another. The study also demonstrated that differentmeasures of diversity variation (e.g., variance and coefficient of variation)can result in different or even contradictory results which further complicatedthe interpretation of diversity patterns. Because of scale effect the commonlyused measure of species diversity in terms of unit area (e.g.,species/m2) is misleading and of little use in comparing speciesdiversitybetween different ecosystems. Extra care must be taken if management andconservation of species diversity have to be based on information gathered at asingle scale.

Released: Aug 01st, 1993
Running Time: 71
Director: Rex Cabo
Company: Infinity Video
Cast: Tony Martino, Karen, Rob (I), Wayne Wright, Keanna Reyes, Els, The Incredible Bulk, Raven Black (I), Joey Silvera, Savannah (I), Samantha York
Critical Rating: AA 1/2
Genre: Feature
A rather receptive lass is fooled by a guy's fake 18 inch dick, so she brings him home to get poked by him and two other male friends amidst a d.p. and threeway cum. Photographer Joey Silvera and model Savannah do it in his darkroom in a scene obviously added only for star name appeal. The Incredible Bulk appears: a fat dude with his schwantz wrapped in thick, grotesque latex. Cute Keanna Reyes is joined by another girl and Samantha York to lay The Incredible Bulk and – whoa! Samantha York? Oh, now I get it – this is a "screw the large objects" flick! Lastly, an amateur scene is thrown in. This is not a compelling video by any stretch, but aficionados of fake dicks should at least get a latent chuckle out of it. Needless to say, Savannah's on the box for easy, thought-free marketing.

Mine was all smashed up too and one of the discs was scratched. La La Land was quick to send a replacement out to me, I am sure they will do the same for you man :)
I had the limited on order for months but ultimately cancelled for the regular. It's nice but not enough to warrant the significantly higher cost. I can live without the case and litho.
Looking for a Ram Man. Preferably new on card. Don't really care about the mailer. I am in Canada. I will pay through Paypal.
Thank you and hopefully someone can help me out.
I've accepted I will probably never get a Fisto.
I'm not a completist. I just pick up the figures I loved as a kid.
Still waiting for my day of sale Modulok in Ottawa.
I need a Leech.
It can be loose or MOC. I don't care if it has the head or accessories. All that really matters to me is the Torso.
Thanks in advance
I was very happy the day I went in there a couple weeks ago and scored Sorceress for $40 :hmgrin: Nice selection of stuff.
Most of the characters in the line will drop in value, especially loose figures. The core characters will retain their value for the most part and characters that never had a reissue or had a smaller...
It's the wording that is confusing. She-Ra has not "turned" 30 yet but is in her 30th year.
I agree with this entirely. Specialty shops would have no problem selling these. There are a lot of people out there that are super nostalgic for stuff from the '80s, Seeing these at there local CBS...
So I am assuming that these would have a different construction for the hips than the vintage figures did. Elastics for figures this size would be a nightmare.
I ordered using safari on my Iphone. I think Modulok opened up at 12:02 for me.
The over sized retro thing does nothing for me. It's a silly novelty, like a giant crayon or toothbrush. I'm okay with straight up reissues at regular sizes but these novelty figures would be a pass...
Got Modulok with no problems :)
Looking to buy a Skeletor Havoc Staff. Any help would be appreciated.
:hmlol: Amazing!
:sheek: Hahaha
These look amazing! I absolutely love the Teela. I just wish they were smaller. I'd be okay with 1/6 (12 inches) but 1/4 is massive. With so many different characters it would be hard to display them...
I need the black hands from a regular Hordak but am willing to buy the whole buck. Any help would be appreciated. It doesn't matter if anything on the figure is broken, I just need the hands.
- -...
It would be a great mini sub!
It's nice to see the single figure postal option is a little faster, although I won't believe it until I see it.
Two bad looks so good. Waiting for my Ebay seller to ship his.
I wouldn't worry about being a completionist yet since you don't own any of the figures, it might turn out that you don't even like them.
Buy a couple to start, I would suggest the obvious...
Honestly, take the risk and wait. Most of the hardcore guys got theirs from pre orders and Matty still have several hundred left for sale. It's not going anywhere anytime soon. I would also imagine...
Thanks taking the time to measure and help me out He-bro :hmgrin::skgrin:It is greatly appreciated!
My display can only accommodate a depth of 15 inches so it looks like I am going to have to...
Does anyone happen to know what the exact measurement of the bottom of the castle is when it is closed? From the part that juts out in front of the draw bridge straight to the back. I'm rearranging...
DOS Castle has shipped! Might be here later today :hmgrin:
Castle shipped!!!
Might be here today!!!!!
Not expecting it, just hoping :lol
Still waiting for my DOS Castle Grayskull to ship. I'll be really disappointed if I do not get it in time for Christmas, especially since the sale page advertised that it would.

My 11 Favorite Words: and how
Submitted by grandpa_chum on Sun, 07/31/2005 - 12:18
- Chum it means both old friend and fish guts
- Hilt because of 'to the hilt' and it sounds great
- Green as in gullible
- Ere
- Quixotic
- Mystic needing a special understanding or recognition, best used improperly as a noun. "she is a mystic"
- Beelzebub Satan, or something like him.
- Fandango tomfoolery
- Milk just sounds great, plus the fact that you can actually "milk" something.
- Berserk any eccentric word meaning unrestrained is a favorite of mine
- Fanfaronade empty boasting
- Login to post comments
Beelzebub and Fandango in the same list. Have you been listening to a little too much Queen lately?

I like favorite word lists.
'Berserk' is an interesting word. It comes from Old Norse words meaning 'bear shirt' (don't forget the r in shirt) - referring to the ferocity of warriors from (?) who fought in such attire. The first writer in English to use it was the Scottish novelist Sir Walter Scott.

Spare a thought for Sven the Berserk from Erik the Viking.

I swear I read that without the R in shirt until you pointed you out.

Keep at him, Jeff; his fists can't take much more!
Jeff never fights anyone his size. He's always matched with some Goliath looking dude.
derry o'sullivan said, less than a minute ago
The smaller they are, the harder they fall:jeff should have "stood in bed"! (cf. Joe Jacobs)
I got into a fistfight with a boxer once, didn't know he had boxed professionally until afterwards
I lost a tooth and had to have a lip stitched, he broke his hand on my face and his nose on my fist
A friend, former amateur light-heavyweight boxing champion of Ireland, once told me that the deadliest knuckle on the fist was that of the little finger because of the bone stretching behind it.
Waste of breath there, Mutt.
Poor Jeff looks like he's been in the wars.

Inexpensive and better than many expensive sable brushes
By Zoomer
from New York Metro
I purchased my first Lowell Cornell brush because Anne Abgott recommended them. I have purchased 5 more since. These brushes are very inexpensive, but hold a point better than many of my expensive sable brushes. I used my new brushes yesterday and I am happy!
Great brush at a great price
By RJH
from Lewistown, PA
The best feature of these brushes is their fantastic points. You probably won't find any other brush (especially at this price) with such sharp points. Plus they hold "bags" of water! My favorite brushes so far.e
simply the best
By Bonnie
from South Texas
I recommend Lowe Cornell to my art students who use them and rave about the difference in their paintings when using Lowe Cornell. They especially like the pointed tips of the ultra round for getting the details, yet holding a fantastic load of paint so that they are not constantly dipping to get more paint. But they understand the need for a more rounded tip for other purposes and once again, Lowe Cornell brushes hold a great load of paint that allows for continuous lines or strokes. I think that Lowe Cornell is as close as I am going to get to using the "Magic Brush." It is just that great.
I just love these brushes. The quality is wonderful.
By Jan
from N.C.
The detail you can achieve with this brush is great.

Brush looks great, performs great, at a very good price. Pointed shape is best brush I have ever used. Fantastic
Best Brushes Ever
By Barbara

Best brushes that I have ever owned. I would highly recommend them.
Best watercolor brushes ever!
By Barb
I couldn't believe how well these brushes handled the watercolors. I need to order more!
Great Brushes!
By Kadibird
from Jacksonville,Fl
Used for botanical art with super realistic detail, holds a good ammt. of water and keeps a very fine point even on the larger brushes (I'm speaking of rounds). All the best characteristics of a natural bristle with just the right amount of spring! Doesn't shed.I'm a self-proclaimed brush"hoarder". One day it occurred to me that all the brushes that I have pulled out of my arsenal and use daily are LC brushes!SOLD!
Great Brushes
By Starla
from Portland, OR
Great brush and a great value. I have had a couple of these that I use for various watercolor projects and thought these brushes were a good brush for my adult students. Nice feel, lots of spring and carry plenty of water. Especially good brushes for beginning watercolorists.

Tim Pawlenty: Barack Obama really is American [UPDATE]
President Barack Obama is an American. Rep. Michele Bachmann and her followers seem to have a hard time accepting that fact, but the fellow Minnesotan she may face if she runs for the GOP presidential nomination harbors no such tea party delusions.
Tim Pawlenty said this morning Republicans are making a big mistake if they try to resurrect birther conspiracy theories. You want to beat the guy in 2012? "Question his policies," not his birth certificate.
"I, for one, believe we should not be raising that issue, in the sense that President Obama was born in the United States," Pawlenty told Joe Scarborough, in response to a question about Donald Trump's embrace of the birthers.
But that hasn't stopped T-Paw from riffing on the notion that the president is some kind of alien.
"When you listen to his policies, don't you at least wonder what planet he's from?" he asked tea partiers in Arizona last month.
Ah, yes. We can just imagine the next gloriously over-the-top T-Paw campaign video: "Brother From Another Planet Returns."
Visit msnbc.com for breaking news, world news, and news about the economy
Update: T-Paw tells Sean Hannity we ought to worry about real problems:
I just don't believe with the advertisement, with the hospital announcement, with the certificate of live birth, that somebody that long ago, you know, fabricated and created a fraudulent situation that Barack Obama could be where he is today.

Glass recycling will come to Sebastian County in the form of a new drop-off point beginning Wednesday.
Carl Davis with Davis Iron & Metal confirmed the arrangement.
"Years ago, we used to collect glass, but then it became unprofitable," Davis said.
"It still isn't worth anything," he added with a chuckle, "but we want to do it as a community service. People want to be greener now."
He said he'll pay 1 cent per pound for food and beverage containers, which no longer have to be color-sorted as in the past.
"Previously you had to separate them by clear, green and brown, but now they can be commingled ... and the labels can stay. They just have to be free of liquids," Davis said.
At his scrap yard, he has the glass crushed before shipping it out.
Randy Hall, director of the Sebastian County Solid Waste Management District, said the glass will go from Davis' scrap yard to Ripple Glass of Kansas City, Mo., which further processes the glass and sends much of it to nearby fiberglass-insulation maker Owens Corning.
According to the website rippleglass.com, Ripple Glass was initiated by Boulevard Brewing Co. to do something about the nearly 150 million pounds of "perfectly good glass," including 10 million empty Boulevard beer bottles, that were thrown away in Kansas City in 2009. At the Ripple processing plant, recycled glass is turned into furnace-ready cullet, a material that can be turned into other products, and shipped to customers.
Davis will be the first of several new district partners for solid waste disposal in Sebastian County.
"After they're up and running, I plan to expand the number of drop-off points," Hall said.
According to a news release, only food and beverage containers can be accepted for glass recycling.
"No ceramics, auto glass, plate glass, mirrors, Pyrex, Corningware or dishes will be accepted," the release states.
Davis is open 7:30 a.m. to 4 p.m. Monday through Friday.

I had been contemplating the merits of buying a FM Transmitter for my iPod in the US and bringing it over to Germany in the past. I then remembered how much trouble my parents got into, when my Mom bought my brother and me a set of walky-talkies in Spain. Those cheap walky-talkies of course weren't licensed for use in Germany and my Mom sure didn't know about these things. Still "ignorance of the law is not an excuse", thus the trouble, and there were many tears from a then six year old.
Trying to avoid the indignity of seeing a grown man cry, I decided to wait until FM Transmitters would become legal here. And finally they are! Press releases at the beginning and middle of March made it to known that FM Transmitters could now be legally obtained in Europe, though Europe seemed to have shrunk quite a bit.

Audio Quality on the Air in DAB Digital Radio in Norway
The same program heard on DAB at 128 kbit/s and 192 kbit/s has been compared with a high quality FM stereo signal. The result from informal listening tests is that there are audible impairments in the stereo imaging of high-frequency instruments, and in particular hi-hats at 128 kbit/s. Some examples of songs where this effect can be heard are given. The effect can be explained by spectral analysis of the output of a DAB radio which shows that at 128 kbit/s, 3 kHz is used as the switch frequency for the intensity stereo coding of the MPEG-I layer 2 encoder, effectively removing all phase information above this frequency. This degradation cannot be heard in a good quality FM stereo signal.

Awards & Rankings
AceGamezWith every clichéd platforming scenario and convention ever devised locked down and ready to boot, Garfield and his Nine Lives is both formulaic and as essential a purchase as a chocolate teapot. Quite simply, it's 'paw'.
This could have actually been an interesting game, but unfortunately it's uninspired and boring licensed drivel that few people are going to enjoy.
The lively graphics, the varied feel for each level, and the gameplay was enough to hold my interest levels and I would imagine keep other people, particular the younger generation interested in continuing as well.

Richard Oliver's superb 179 failed to prevent Worcestershire's first LV= County Championship loss of the season as Gloucestershire registered their maiden victory at New Road since 1986.
The 24-year-old left-hander's career-best innings, constructed over the course of four and a half hours enabled the Division Two leaders to wipe out a deficit of 184.
Gloucestershire were, however, hardly challenged by a target of 177 and cruised home by seven wickets.
Paceman Liam Norwell broke Worcestershire's resistance in a new-ball spell of 4-16 and opener Chris Dent led the victory rush with his first half-century in three months after taking the key wicket of Oliver in his role as occasional left-arm spinner.
Will Tavare made 33 in an opening stand of 67 before falling lbw to Joe Leach and when Dent was out for 51, driving Shaaiq Choudhry's fourth ball straight to mid-off, Alex Gidman followed his first-innings century with an unbeaten 45 from 43 balls.
Leach claimed his 30th wicket of the season when Gareth Roderick was caught behind for 25 but that was only a blip as Gloucestershire comfortably completed their third win of the season.
They made the running from the outset in dismissing Worcestershire before tea on the first day and, as well as Oliver played, there was to be no way back.
They are still favourites for promotion but their lead could be significantly trimmed if their closest rivals, Surrey and Hampshire, close out victories tomorrow.
It was unfortunate for Oliver that the latest chapter in a remarkable rise to a county contract – after he was plucked from the minor counties circuit – should have coincided with one of the team's least effective displays of the season.
Here's @richieoliva celebrating his maiden FC century pic.twitter.com/Oc0GpRVvNP
— Worcestershire CCC (@WorcsCCC) August 17, 2014
Originally drafted in from Shropshire in April because of an injury, he scored hundreds in successive innings for the second XI and in May he was in the county team in the run to the NatWest T20 Blast quarter-finals.
A championship debut arrived in June and having scored at least one half-century in each of four matches, he has accumulated 504 runs in his first eight innings in first-class cricket.
Dedicated to the sport as an annual traveller to Australia to play for Victorian club Geelong, he is refreshingly uncomplicated in his approach. If the ball is there to be hit, then more than often than not it is - and with some force.
Gloucestershire's bowlers will bear testimony to this, having seen Oliver plundering his first 50 runs in 41 balls and the third in 40. That the middle one was twice as long indicated a period of circumspection in approaching a maiden hundred.
In all he hit 23 fours and one six, putting Worcestershire in front in the over he reached three figures.
For much of his innings he was accompanied by Alexei Kervezee in Worcestershire's highest partnership for any wicket this season. They put on 215 in 51 overs before Gloucestershire made a decisive breakthrough with their spinners.
Kervezee had made 78 with a six and 10 fours when he tickled a catch to Roderick to give off spinner Mark Craig a first championship wicket and in his next over the New Zealander claimed a second with Tom Kohler-Cadmore's top-edge to midwicket.
Classy from the @Gloscricket players observing our 2 minutes silence with us #wewillrememberthem pic.twitter.com/WtngZz1pdb
— Worcestershire CCC (@WorcsCCC) August 17, 2014
Oliver was fifth out at 296, caught behind off Dent, and the seamers did the rest as the last five wickets disappeared for 39 from the time the new ball was taken. Of the lower order only Choudhry, with 30, seriously troubled Gloucestershire until caught at second slip off David Payne.
Stand-in captain Gidman was proud to be the first man to lead Gloucestershire to a championship victory at New Road in 28 years.
He said: "It's a lovely place to play and I've been a few times but never won. To have done that was really enjoyable.
"It was a challenging wicket but a good cricket wicket and we probably applied ourselves a little bit better over three days. We had the best of the conditions. On the first day I didn't think we bowled as well as we could but the boys kept going really hard."
Worcestershire's assistant coach Matt Mason was delighted with Oliver's impressive century.
He said: "He's a breath of fresh air as they say. His approach to his cricket is amazing and he's very positive. He's fearless, that's the way we describe him. It's great for the people who are here watching as there's never a dull moment when he's at the crease.
"He's different as well. He doesn't play an orthodox game and I think there's room for people like that in any first-class cricket team. His confidence and his belief that he belongs here is growing all the time."

Yehuda Amichai Poems
A Pity. We Were Such A Good Invention
They amputated
Your thighs off my hips.
As far as I'm concerned
They are all surgeons. All of them.
They dismantled us
Each from the other.
As far as I'm concerned
They are all engineers. All of them.
A pity. We were such a good
And loving invention.
An aeroplane made from a man and wife.
Wings and everything.
We hovered a little above the earth.
We even flew a little.
Love Of Jerusalem
There is a street where they sell only red meat
And there is a street where they sell only clothes and perfumes. And there
is a day when I see only cripples and the blind
And those covered with leprosy, and spastics and those with twisted lips.
Here they build a house and there they destroy
Here they dig into the earth
And there they dig into the sky,
Here they sit and there they walk

NCI Cancer Genomics Cloud Pilots
Bringing data and computation together to create knowledge that accelerates cancer research and enables precision medicine
For upcoming events and conferences or mentions of the NCI Cloud in the news, visit the News and Events page.
The traditional model for analyzing genomic data involves individual researchers downloading data stored at a variety of locations, adding their own data, attempting to harmonize the data, and then computing over these data on local hardware. This model has been successful for many years, but has become unsustainable given the enormous growth of biomedical data since the advent of large-scale scientific programs that use next-generation sequencing technology. The size of the data makes access and analysis difficult for anyone but the best-resourced institutions, in terms of both storage and computing capability.
Goals of the Cloud Pilots
The Cancer Genomics Cloud Pilots are designed to explore innovative methods for accessing and computing on large genomic data. They aim to bring data and analysis together on a single platform by creating a set of data repositories with co-located computational capacity and an Application Programming Interface (API) that provides secure data access. In this model, applications are brought to the data, rather than bringing the data to the applications. The goals of Cloud Pilots are to democratize access to NCI-generated genomic and related data and to create a cost-effective way to provide computational support to the cancer research community.
The Cloud Pilots Program
Three contracts were awarded to develop the Cloud Pilots, to the Broad Institute, the Institute for Systems Biology (ISB), and Seven Bridges Genomics. Each of these groups is developing infrastructure and a set of tools to access, explore, and analyze molecular data. Key design principles for the clouds include: APIs for secure tool and data access, usability for biologists and clinicians as well as bioinformaticists and application developers, scalability, sustainability, extensibility to new data types without major refactoring, and open source, non-viral software licenses.
All three Cloud Pilots have chosen to implement their systems through commercial cloud providers and are collaborating on adopting common standards. Beyond these commonalities, the three project teams have distinct system designs, data presentation, and analysis resources to serve the cancer research community.
The Cloud Pilots will be available to researchers in early 2016.
The Cancer Genome Atlas Data
All three Cloud Pilots will host a core data set from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA). TCGA is a comprehensive effort launched by NCI and the National Human Genome Research Institute in 2006 to accelerate the understanding of the molecular basis of cancer through the application of genome analysis technologies to matched tumor-normal pairs. TCGA has collected tissue samples from and is characterizing 33 different types of cancer, including 10 rare cancers. TCGA has successfully demonstrated that a national, shared infrastructure for the generation of cancer genomic data, where individual labs pool their efforts and contribute their data, enables researchers to make and validate important discoveries and achieve economies of scale.
All three Cloud Pilots will host these core TCGA data:
Data Type
Available clinical information for each participant (may include demographic information, treatment information, survival data, etc)
Information on how samples from each participant were processed by the Biospecimen Core Resource Center (BCR)
Whole exome sequence for both tumor and normal sample for each participant; whole genome sequence for select participants
mRNA sequence for each participant's tumor sample
SNP array
Probe signals for each participant's tumor sample
Mutations and Variations
Somatic and germline mutation calls for each participant
By its projected completion in 2016, it is expected that TCGA will generate approximately 2.5 Petabytes (PB) of data. Maintaining local copies of all of the data is not feasible, and downloads can take weeks or months to complete. For precision medicine to move forward, data access and computing resources must be made available to the broadest set of researchers possible.
Meeting the Big Data Challenge: NCI Genomic Data Commons
In response to the need for data access, NCI funded the Genomic Data Commons (GDC) program, designed to provide the cancer research community with a single, unified data service that consolidates molecular and clinical data from all current and future NCI cancer genomics projects, including TCGA, and for other cancer genomics projects that endorse broad data sharing. The GDC, developed by the University of Chicago through a subcontract with Leidos Biomedical Research, supports the hosting and harmonization of genomic and clinical data from cancer research programs, and the application of state-of-the art methods for generating derived data (e.g., mutation calls, structural variants). The GDC will be available in Spring, 2016 and will provide the community with resources such as web-based tools and a data portal for retrieving data from and submitting data to the GDC and for processing data through GDC bioinformatics pipelines, as well as APIs for programmatic access to the data. Resources will be maintained in a secure data center that includes user support and documentation.
Cloud Pilots and the Genomic Data Commons: A Comprehensive Infrastructure for Cancer Genomic Data
The Cloud Pilots and the GDC have complementary goals, and the implementation teams are working together to promote interoperability among these systems.
Together, the systems create a cohesive model for large-scale genomic data management and analysis:
- Data are generated through the TCGA and other NCI-funded genomics programs.
- Data are validated, aggregated, harmonized, stored, and made available for query and download through the GDC as the authoritative NCI cancer genomics dataset.
- The Cloud Pilots provide the computational capacity to effectively analyze these data and allow researchers to bring their own data and tools to the cloud.
Benefits of the Programs
Together, the Cloud Pilots and the GDC provide the research community with many significant benefits:
- Democratize access to high-quality standardized clinical, biospecimen, and molecular data
- Enable researchers across the cancer community to access tools and to compute on large volumes of data, regardless of local resource constraints
- Provide capabilities to search, visualize, and analyze researcher's own data in combination with TCGA data
- Provide consistent, programmatic access to the data and the ability for researchers to bring their own tools to the data
- Harmonize data and analysis pipelines for consistency and reproducibility
- Ensure security and appropriate access to controlled data

5 reviews | 4.4 out of 5
I purchased the LEGO Star Wars Rogue Shadow for my Grandsons birthday (11th). He loves everything LEGO, especially Star Wars related. According to him, the set was "awesome" and "lots of fun to assemble". I knew I was on the right track to purchase him a LEGO product, as he loves them totally. Also, they last forever. He has so many collections and displays them proudly. He takes pride in the assembly and looks forward to getting more sets.
this product is amazing its large fairly easy to assemble but ibe problem i have is it includes three minifigurs including the awesome battle damaged darth vader but the ships cockpit only can hold 1 minifgure other than thatthis is an excelent oroduct well worth the money
My son enjoyed putting together this piece. But unfortunately, the lego people do not fit into the cockpit. The lego pieces do fall apart while playing with it as well. But overall, he is very pleased with his toy.
The pieces seem to fall off very easily according to my 11-year-old son, for whom this product was purchased. That's frustrating to him during imaginative play time.

-Perfect family retreat with 5 bedrooms offering plenty of space for guests and nanny or caretaker.
-Beautiful, serene location in Southern Vermont, close to skiing yet complete privacy in a beautiful natural setting. Comfortable, lodge-style retreat with large pond and swimming dock on beautifully manicured grounds in a classic rural Vermont setting between the towns of Weston and Londonderry.
-Nestled in the forest at the end of a quiet dead-end road, Lake House is set in beautiful natural surroundings providing the ultimate in peace and privacy. No shops or commercial development. Lake House is a large, lodge-style home built to the highest standards that blends luxury and comfort with immediate access to nature and the outdoors.
The swimming in the lake is superb and one of the main attractions in summer. The lake is a very large, (1 acre plus) manmade pond with a small manmade beach, a diving platform and clear water that is spring fed ( two feeder ponds ensure the water flowing into the pond is clean). The bottom is sand.The depth averages around 14 ft and in the middle, the deepest part, is 16 ft. In short, swimming here is a delight and the house is called Lake house because the pond is a prominent feature of the property. Our kids love to spend their whole day around the lake
Nearby is the quaint village of Weston with the renowned 'Vermont Country Store' and Weston Playhouse theater. City of Manchester for shopping 20 minutes away. Conveniently located in the foothills of the Green Mountains National Forest between Stratton and Okemo (20 minutes) and with Bromley (10 minutes) and Magic Mountain (just 5) minutes around the corner, Lake House is the perfect family retreat. No traffic, no noise, just peace and quiet.
Some of Vermont's best restaurants like The Mill Tavern in Londonderry and Johnny's Seesaw in Peru are within 5-10 minutes. Cross-country ski from your doorstep into the natural forest across the road, or start from the best cross-country skiing in Southern Vermont at nearby Greendale Rd.
Once you settle down in front of the huge fireplace in the warm, comfortable living room, or down at the private beach, life leaves nothing else to be desired.
The superbly crafted timber frame house with inviting interiors provides the ultimate in comfort and overlooks the 1-acre lake after which the house is named. Relax on one of the terraces or the private beach by the lake, or walk the beautiful grounds. This fabulous property will fill you with a sense of peace and quiet.

My family spent a week at the Lake House and had such a wonderful and relaxing time! There is so much space throughout this tastefully appointed home. The kitchen had everything we needed for large dinners and we used the outdoor grill as well. The kids enjoyed the lake and the adults enjoyed the lounge chairs and stone deck off of the kitchen -- the perfect spot for coffee in the morning and cocktails at night. Luisa is very hands on and approachable, making sure that we were happy and content. I highly recommend this great and tranquil home for your next vacation!!!
The Lake House is a beautiful home in a perfect setting. Our family of five loved our stay here, and the kids especially loved boating and swimming in the lovely small lake. The home is nicely furnished, the kitchen is well outfitted for cooking when eating in, and the setting is wonderfully serene. Luisa made sure everything was taken care of for our stay, and we felt like we were staying in the home of a friend. We highly recommend this great getaway.
This is a very high end property. The house is very large and beautifully decorated throughout. The grounds are also magnificent. Our 3 kids had great fun splashing around in the 1 acre pond which was very clean. They also had great fun in the spacious green area (too big to call a garden) which is at the other side of the house where they could play soccer, whiffle ball etc.
When we all needed to relax, the kids played board games or watched TV in the finished basement which has a 12 seater couch - great for watching a family movie. The balcony is also a great place to eat or just to sit and take in the magnificent scenery around the property.
Luisa (the owner) was very helpful and informative before our trip and checked in via e-mail a couple of times during our stay to ensure we were all having a good time which was appreciated.
We had a great vacation and would highly recommend this house - thanks Luisa
The "yellow house" was an amazing comfortable place for our family to stay. We enjoyed the pond, the wonderful view and most of all having dinners together around the large dining table. The separate bedrooms all with bathrooms gave privacy and quiet to family who slept later or went to bed earlier- thank you for making our family get together so special! We can't wait to do it again!
We had a wonderful labor day weekend at the beautiful lake house in a very picturesque location in mountains of Vermont. My wife was impressed with the lake front view from the master bedroom and "old fashioned' bathtub.
The home was quite comfortable and provided us with all the amenities of home, including an outdoor grill.
We spent the evenings going for walks around the lake and playing the old fashion board games in the family room on the lower level.
We enjoyed the lake and the many frogs and bird species in the area. We went to the local supermarket where they had farm fresh corn.
There is nothing not to love about this home. The owners have done an excellent job in maintaining the property. The lovely wooden floors, the larger ice maker in the kitchen with the dedicated "hot water" faucet (created a cup of hot tea in seconds), the paired rocking chairs, the old country wooden table and the abundance of windows with views of the lake are just some of the things that made this a great way to close the summer.
Thank you for sharing your "gem" with my family. We have no reservations in recommending this property to our family and friends.
Noel and Deborah
Our family stayed at the Lake House for 8 days in August. This is a very well built, decorated and maintained home that has a wonderful location. The large lake is so pretty and clean. We spent hours daily swimming and kayaking on the lake and lying on the beach and swim dock. The grounds are beautifully landscaped and there is plenty of outdoor space with a large patio with firepit. The general immediate area provides wonderful opportunities to hike and enjoy the beauty and peacefulness of Vermont. The Landgrove / Weston area is an ideal area with fine arts, dining and the Weston Playhouse. The owner is very pleasant and responsive and took the time to answer all of our questions about the property prior to our arrival. She wanted to make sure that we had a great vacation – and we did!! We hope to return here for another perfect vacation. Thank-you!

A forum is set Jan. 17 to nail down the notification process. Up to 50 positions may be cut by June 30.
CSU-Pueblo President Lesley Di Mare said Thursday that she is working out the logistics of when the notification process will begin.
CSU System Chancellor Michael Martin will head a forum in the Occhiato University Center, where the notification process and a timeline of the process of cuts will be announced.
"We still will be open for questions (during the forum)," Di Mare said.
The school is looking to trim $3.3 million from next year's budget, in large part because its enrollment continues to decline.
Cora Zaletel, public information officer for the university, said she couldn't confirm the exact number of positions that could be eliminated, but that could depend on the range of salaries. If there are more positions with higher salaries cut, there would be fewer cuts needed to reach the goal.
Di Mare said that 82 percent of the university's dollars from the education and general fund budget are in salaries.
Several faculty members have voiced strong concerns over how the university's budget became a crisis overnight. The university community only learned of the budget deficit in early December.
Di Mare said she has been meeting with faculty representatives and the faculty is intimately involved in looking at how these cuts should occur.
She said she is considering options given to her by faculty in making decisions.
"We have tried to get every single person on this campus involved in this very painful process, and it is painful," Di Mare said.
"If we don't do these cuts, we will be in worse financial shape next year. We have to be proactive and decide as thoughtfully as we possibly can what our budget is really going to look like next year."

I'm trying to set up the slideshow widget so that when users click on a photo, it takes them to a specific URL. I've tried setting Table VI B-5a,,c,d to all possible variations, but there are a couple of issues:
Clicking on the first image in the slideshow takes you to a lightbox popup of the image.
Clicking on any image in the slideshow after that takes you directly to the image file, no lightbox.
If I set VI B-5a,,c,d to NO LINK, clicking on the thumbnail in the widget slideshow does nothing.
If I set up a slideshow on a normal post, the clicking on the photos to take you to different links works. It just doesn't want to work in the widget.
You can see them both in action here, on my test site.

This post was submitted by Jennifer Holladay, who lives in Denver and also authored the foreword to Lessons in Integration: Realizing the Promise of Racial Integration in Schools, edited by Erica Frankenberg and Gary Orfield (University of Virginia Press, 2007.)
When third grade CSAP scores for reading were released last week, they revealed much more than students' proficiency levels. They showed, yet again, that white and more affluent children tend to be concentrated in a certain kind of school, while children of color and those who live in poverty tend to be congregated in another.
The three schools that tied for first place — Bromwell Elementary, Polaris at Ebert Elementary School, and Steck Elementary School — each possess one of the district's lowest poverty rates (just 8, 9 and 12 percent, respectively, when 73 percent of students in the district qualify for free or reduced lunch). Their student populations also are overwhelmingly white (more than 75 percent white, in a district where fewer than 20 percent of students are.)
On the flip side, the two schools that tied for last place, Barrett Elementary and Place Bridge Academy, are what researchers sometimes categorize as "apartheid schools" — schools that are virtually all "non-white" and where poverty abounds.
Of course, the segregation within Denver Public Schools is no secret. In 2006, the Civil Rights Project, then at Harvard and now at UCLA, released a scathing indictment of the problem within DPS in its report, The End of Keyes: Resegregation Trends and Achievement in the Denver Public Schools. That so many of our students have been, and are, trapped in racially and socioeconomically segregated schools remains cause for concern. After all, research has proven time and again that separate schools are inherently unequal, in terms of students' educational outcomes and life opportunities.
Still, here in Denver, much of the talk — and action — around school reform seemingly accepts segregation as a permissible norm. That the West Prep and KIPP schools demonstrate success in high-poverty, racially-isolated environments, for example, too often deflects attention away from the fundamental purpose of integrated schooling: Opening the financial, social and political assets bound up in white, middle-class children on the larger, societal stage. (It's easy to forget, too, that integrated schooling produces meaningful "pro-social" outcomes for students, such as increasing their capacity to thrive in diverse workplaces later in life.)
Looking at demographics for DPS, few schools are what researchers would consider "integrated"- possessing sizable white populations and at least two additional racial or ethnic groups represented in large numbers, with an ultimate mix of about 50 percent white and 50 percent "of color." This is due, in part, to the reality that white families, especially those with class privilege, disproportionately opt out of public schools. It also relates to housing segregation, which remains pronounced. The situation further reflects a collective lack of political and moral will.
Still, there are a handful of schools holding onto the promise of integrated schooling in Denver: Odyssey Charter Elementary School, Lincoln Elementary and Highline Academy Charter School, the K-8 that my daughter attends, among them. At these three schools, third grade students scored at least 30 percentage points above the district average in reading, placing their schools among the top 10 in DPS on this measure.
Therein lies a lesson many failed to recognize with the release of the third grade, reading CSAP scores last week: A handful of schools that are comparatively white and affluent boasted the top scores, but pocketed among the top performers also are schools that afford increased access and opportunity through purposefully integrated environments.
I, for one, hope this can be a lesson observed, if not finally learned.

There's a reason steakhouses dot the landscape in every town in America - most of us can't resist the siren call of a juicy, perfectly cooked steak. What cut you choose for steak recipes depends on what you're looking for - and what you want to pay. Flank steak, for example, has killer flavor but can be tough unless it's cooked and sliced correctly. Tenderloin lives up to its "tender" label, but it's expensive, and can be a bit bland. Rib-eyes have lots of fat marbled throughout, which makes them very tender and full of flavor - a great steak for grilling. A T-bone (or Porterhouse) is another good choice, since they've got tenderloin on one side of the bone and a strip steak on the other. If you're on a budget, opt for flank steak (a quick sear is what you're looking for, then cut across the grain on the bias) or sirloin steak (from just behind the short loin; sirloins are large, but thin and lean like flank steak). To get the most out of any cut, however, start with a very hot pan or grill to get a flavorful caramelized crust, then finish the steak to desired degree of doneness at a lower flame. Charred on the outside, pink and juicy within - steak perfection.See Popular Steak Recipes

When Tort Resolutions Are "Wrong": Predictors of Discordant Outcomes in Medical Malpractice Litigation
Tort litigation is frequently criticized for producing outcomes that do not match merit. We examined 1,452 closed malpractice claims from five insurers to obtain objective clinical judgments of their underlying merit. We then analyzed predictors of discordant outcomes-payment of apparently nonmeritorious claims and nonpayment of apparently meritorious claims. In multivariate analyses, the odds of both forms of discordant outcome were significantly higher when reviewers judged it a close call as to whether a medical error had occurred. The odds of nonmeritorious claims receiving compensation were significantly higher among cases involving infants and health care facility codefendants and significantly lower when claims were decided by trial verdict. The strongest predictor of rejection of meritorious claims was resolution by trial verdict, which suggests that patients who have been harmed by error fare poorly when their claims are decided by juries.

There are three room types at the Balsam Mountain Inn, but each room is distinct. No two are alike. Each has a private bath (unlike when the inn was built), but bathrooms vary in size from spacious to quite small, and guests choose either a step-in shower or a clawfoot tub. Only three rooms, designed for accessibility, have a conventional tub/shower combination.

Electricity markets provide economic signals that encourage network utilization to be maximized. This environment is encouraging network owners and operators to ensure that limits are consistent with actual system conditions. The National Electricity Market Management Company Limited (NEMMCO) is a government agent placed between market participants (generators and retailers) with the roles to manage the electricity market, maintain power system security, and coordinate power system planning. Currently, the eastern Australian states of Victoria, New South Wales, Queensland, and South Australia are involved in the market. Power system security and coordination of power system planning for electricity markets involve various power system analyses being done by NEMMCO and market participants. Efficiency of the data preparation for analysis and consistency and transparency of the data are important issues. A software system called the Operations and Planning Data Management System (OPDMS) is being developed to support planning and operations functions in the electricity market environment. One of its key features is the automated preparation of input data files for load flow and transient stability studies using the PSSE analysis package. These data files are generated from real-time power system data and, therefore, allow accurate analysis of actual system conditions. OPDMS improves NEMMCO's ability to develop limits that are consistent with actual system conditions

Liz Phair's 'Bollywood' is at least schizophrenic
"Bollywood" is the lead single for Phair's new record Funstyle, which has been released in tandem with a reissue of her classic Exile In Guyville. The end result seems to be a zero-sum game.
Phair's debut record was notable at least for her lyricism and its delivery, a colloquial and dead honest piece of work that was never quite reached again. That said: what the fuck? Even for someone sitting in the low curve of her creative career, "Bollywood" is a shambles. The song starts on the same token as Missy Elliot's "Get Ur Freak On," with jumpy ensemble bongos and, 'lo, a Bollywood-style rhythm. But where Elliot's song goes on to be perfect fodder for summertime FM, "Bollywood" tailspins into a bizarre rap/poetry slam on the music business, and space, and a dead poolboy, or something. After fading in some malevolent synth strings and some dramatic voiceovers, the song ends as quickly as it came, leaving you with stars and sparrows circling your head like Wile E. Coyote versus a mountainside.
Exile In Guyville is available from Phair's website.
