The tongue. The twerks. The emojis. Miley Cyrus is officially back.
After taking time off from her Bangerz tour due to a serious allergic reaction that landed her in the hospital, the singer took to Twitter on Saturday to break the news of her return.
"so f—— xxxited to get back on touuuuuuuurrrrrr," she Tweeted, along with a series of rainbow icons.
And just in case her fans missed the memo, Cyrus followed up her first announcement with a series of Tweets full of excitement (and expletives!) on Sunday.
"So f—— HAPPY to be back on the [Bangerz tour]," she writes.
But what's an announcement from Cyrus without a little twerking time? The 21-year-old posted a video of her rocking out on a couch and jumping off before headbanging and going into full twerk mode along with a friend.

Algebra Touch
What parents need to know
Parents Need to Know
Parents need to know that Algebra Touch is an educational app that teaches and allows practice of algebraic concepts. Kids learn to drag and rearrange single-variable polynomials so that like terms are together for easier adding. Then kids can tap the operator between the terms to compute answers. Terms can be factored or combined until the variable is isolated. Kids (or parents) can also create their own problems to rearrange and solve. The app saves the problems that were created for later use. Kids can contact others via email or Facebook to get help with problems.
What kids can learn
Language & Reading
- following directions
- equations
- fractions
- functions
- multiplication
- subtraction
- addition
- algebra
- division
Thinking & Reasoning
- applying information
- logic
- making conclusions
- identifying strengths and weaknesses
Engagement, Approach, Support
In this positive, low-stress algebra intro, kids get encouraging words at each step of an equation and access problems in many ways. The screen only wiggles at wrong answers, so kids are encouraged to try again.
Critical-thinking skills will help kids clarify what's happening and reflect on how each step will, or won't, lead to the right answer.
The user interface lists lessons in order of difficulty and provides clear direction. It's so well-organized, you don't need a tutorial.
User reviews
Parents say
Kids say
What's it about?
Kids choose a lesson, then a basic problem related to that lesson appears with a written explanation. Along with the explanation comes an instruction ("Tap the +") telling kids what to do next to make the answer appear. Kids can then practice that lesson. Practice goes beyond the expectation that kids will enter the final answer; rather, kids tap the steps involved in solving the equation, and the app gives the answer. Tap incorrectly and the image simply wiggles. Choose correctly and the next step appears until kids arrive at the final answer.
Is it any good?
ALGEBRA TOUCH allows kids to manipulate and solve single-variable algebraic equations and terms in a very creative way. Kids drag their finger on the screen to move terms from one side of the equation to the other, or they can tap to factor or solve. Tapping will compute all the arithmetic automatically, except for division, since the app requires fractions to be fully reduced before the answer is correct. Students who want extra practice or a new way to approach essential concepts can find both in Algebra Touch, a unique supplement to basic algebra education.
Families can talk about...
For kids who seem to be ahead of the math curve in school, offer this app as a way to allow them to dig deeper into the concepts and challenge themselves in a fun way.
Encourage kids struggling in certain areas of algebra to choose those specific topics on this app to approach the problems in a different way.

Alex Ovechkin skating with Dynamo in 2010. (Photo credit: Sport-Express)
Over the weekend, it was widely reported that Alex Ovechkin's former Russian Super League team, Dynamo Moscow, would try to sign the Capitals captain if the NHL enters into a lockout on September 15th. According to rsport.ru, Dynamo general manager Andrei Safronov said to the press, "[Leafs' forward Leo] Komarov (who played on the team last year) will come. We will talk with Ovechkin. It will be up to the head coach." And headlines across Russia and North America followed.
Well apparently, not everyone in Dynamo's front office are as open to Ovechkin returning — even for a potential asking price of $3 million (plus insurance). In an extended meeting with the press on Sunday, president Arkady Rotenberg distanced himself from Safronov's earlier comments.

LOVE these sinks. They are easy to clean, free up space on the counter and love the clean simple lines. I replaced glass sinks with these and I am very glad I did.
Knowing that we were going to order from an internet site, we looked in-store to compare similar items. Most were very high end and much more expensive than our purchase. Extremely pleased with the solid, elegant quality of the this Kraus Square Vessel sink. It was exact to its measurements, incredibly solid, and looks like a piece of art when placed on slab.Even the pop-up drain was heavy duty, elegant, and easy to install. Delivery was fast, and the item came thoughtfully packaged. We were so in love with this Kraus product, that we ordered all Kraus faucets, and are beyond pleased with them as well. Highly recommend!
This is a sturdy and beautiful sink that will be placed in a lightly-used hallway half-bath. Looking forward to installing it on a gray vanity surface.
- How did the color on site compare with the actual product? True
- Please tell us about the quality of the product. Solid, heavy
- How accurate was the on site description of the product? Very accurate
This vessel sink looks beautiful on our granite counter. I love how the sink stops up. The only negative is it moves a little on the ring. There is a little splashing when we turn the water on fill force but maybe we should have put the faucett a little closer to the sink. We installed ourselves so I would recommend having the water hit as close to the center of the sink as possible.
- How did the color on site compare with the actual product? Great white
- Please tell us about the quality of the product. Beautiful quality sink
- How accurate was the on site description of the product? Great accurate description
loved this sink. Looks great in our bathroom. Would definitely recommend it.
- How did the color on site compare with the actual product? good
- Please tell us about the quality of the product. good
- How accurate was the on site description of the product? good
Sink is exactly as described in the web listing. Good price. Prompt delivery. Thanks.
- How did the color on site compare with the actual product? perfect match
- Please tell us about the quality of the product. excellent
- How accurate was the on site description of the product? perfect
We ordered 4 sinks with the vessel faucets and found that because of the type of sink and faucet, it would overtake the existing countertop so we returned one of the sinks with the vessel faucet. We originally had two sinks and they were fine, but we added a granite countertop and the new sink with faucet really adds to the new countertop. This gives the room a lavish look rather than just a countertop with sinks enclosed. Secondly, ordering these products directly from a live person and having to return the one again working with a live customer service representative was so professional. Overstock should compliment these two people who assisted us in our ordering and returning, they are a asset to the company.
- Did the color match the color displayed onsite? yes
- How is the quality of the product? excellent
- Did the description onsite accurately describe the product? yes!
This sink is solid and well made but because it's a vessel sink and there is no overflow drain the sink drains very slowly. They look very nice though.
We purchased these sinks for our master bath and they are even more beautiful than shown on the website. Very well made and a quality product that looks very elegant in our bathroom. The sinks were packed very well and shipped so quickly. Thank you for a great product at an excellent price.
Looks beautiful but water splashes out all over the place if we turn the water on full blast. Wear your rain gear!
Everything was good...except I would not buy these type of sinks again from anywhere. The two I bought from Overstock are beautiful and work fine. The only problem is they are not too functional. The water will splatter out more so than typical sink. But if you have to have this look, I would recommend something larger and taller so water won't splatter out as much when using.
I am very happy with the vessel sink. It looks great installed, shipping was very fast.
I purchased 2 of these basins; much to my husbands doubts about quality, service and delivery. We are pleased with the product. The basins arrived within a week. I am more than satisfied with the quality. The porcelain is very white with no defects and the stopper is of good quality in a polished chrome. I even love the signature name imprinted on the inside. You can be sure the signature will be facing us once installed. So impressed with the company we have decided to order our facets for the vessels from here. When ordering faucets for these basins, factor in that they are but a little more than 4 inches deep and a to-tall facet will make a splash. I have ordered the Vigo vessel faucet, it specifies dimensions 18", however in reality it is only 12 1/2 inches from the counter top up. We have yet to install but will update asap.

The use of fluid generalized processor sharing (GPS) algorithm for integrated services networks has received a lot of attention since early 1990s because of its desirable properties in terms of delay bound and service fairness. Many packet fair queuing (PFQ) algorithms have been developed to approximate GPS. However, owing to their implementation complexity, it is difficult to support a large number of sessions with diverse service rates while maintaining the GPS properties. The grouping architecture has been proposed to dramatically reduce the implementation complexity. However, it can only support a fixed number of service rates, thus causing the problem of granularity. We present a viable implementation of our previously proposed dual-rate grouping architecture, and demonstrate that, as compared with the original grouping architecture, our proposed scheme possesses better performance in terms of approximating per session-based PFQ algorithms without increasing the implementation complexity.

If elite Master Business Administration programs are serious about diversity, they're going to have to step up their minority recruitment.
Except for Asian Americans, minorities are underrepresented among the students in many of the same MBA programs that often tout their ethnic and racial diversity, according to a recent analysis by the Wall Street Journal.
For example, minorities are 34 percent of the senior class at Cornell University's Johnson Graduate School of Management until you exclude Asian students. Then, the senior class' minority enrollment drops to 12 percent.
The Journal report found similar racial disparity among students at Dartmouth College's Tuck School of Business, the University of Michigan's Stephen M. Ross School of Business, Carnegie Mellon University's Tepper School of Business, and the Yale University School of Management.

Al Franken, one of our "savviest satirists" (People), has been studying the rhetoric of the Right. He has listened to their cries of "slander," "bias," and even "treason." He has examined the Bush administration's policies of squandering our surplus, ravaging the environment, and alienating the rest of the world. He's even watched Fox News. A lot.
And, in this fair and balanced report, Al bravely and candidly exposes them all for what they are: liars. Lying, lying liars. Al destroys the liberal media bias myth by doing what his targets seem incapable of: getting his facts straight. Using the Right's own words against them, he takes on the pundits, the politicians, and the issues, in the most talked about book of the year.
Timely, provocative, unfailingly honest, and always funny, Lies sticks it to the most right-wing administration in memory, and to the right-wing media hacks who do its bidding.
Editorial Reviews
"Lies and the Lying Liars Who Tell Them: A Fair and Balanced Look at the Right rings with the moral clarity of an angel's trumpet... Although Franken is a self-proclaimed liberal, his work differs in that it presents well-substantiated arguments and damning examples of false accusations that conservatives have effectively used against Democrats... sharp analysis and humor." —Associated Press
"A typically unabashed blend of razor-witted denunciation and old-fashioned gumshoe detective work directed at right-wing crazies both in and out of government... [An] exquisitely irritating new book." —The Independent, London
"[A] heady mixture of scathing humor and righteous indignation." —The Onion

Read an Excerpt
God chose me to write this book.
Just the fact that you are reading this is proof not just of God's existence, but also of His/Her/Its beneficence. That's right. I am not certain of God's precise gender. But I am certain that He/She/It chose me to write this book.
This isn't hubris. I'm not saying this in an egotistical way. God didn't choose me because I'm the greatest writer who ever lived. That was William Shakespeare, whose work I have a passing familiarity with. No. I just happened to be the right vessel at the right time. If something in this book makes you laugh, it was God's joke. If something makes you think, it's because God had a good point to make.
The reason I know God chose me is because God spoke to me personally.
God began our conversation by clearing something up. Some of George W. Bush's friends say that Bush believes God called him to be president during these times of trial. But God told me that He/She/It had actually chosen Al Gore by making sure that Gore won the popular vote and, God thought, the electoral college. "THAT WORKED FOR EVERYONE ELSE," God said.
"What about Tilden?" I asked, referring to the 1876 debacle.
"QUIET!" God snapped. God was angry.
God said that after 9/11, George W. Bush squandered a unique moment of national unity. That instead of rallying the country around a program of mutual purpose and sacrifice, Bush cynically used the tragedy to solidify his political power and pursue an agenda that panders to his base and serves the interests of his corporate backers.
God told me that Bush squandered a $4.6 trillion surplus and is plunging us into deficits as far as God can see. And that Bush squandered another surplus. The surplus of goodwill from the rest of the world that he had inherited from Bill Clinton.
And this was pissing God off.
He/She/It was right. But it sounded like a lot of work.
"Look, God, I'm flattered, but I think you got the wrong guy. The kind of book you're talking about would require months of research."
And God said, "LET THERE BE GOOGLE. AND LET THERE BE LEXISNEXIS."
"Very funny, God. I use Google all the time."
"YES, I KNOW," God said. "FOR HOT ASIAN TEENS."
"You must be thinking of my son, Joe."
"Okay, okay." I changed the subject. "It's just that I can't do this book myself."
"LEAVE THAT TO ME," God boomed.
And that's when Harvard called.
Harvard's Kennedy School of Government asked me to serve as a fellow at its Shorenstein Center on the Press, Politics, and Public Policy. After my varied and celebrated career in television, movies, publishing, and the lucrative world of corporate speaking, being a fellow at Harvard seemed, frankly, like a step down.
I couldn't think of anything less appealing than molding the minds of tomorrow's leaders, unless it was spending fireside evenings sipping sherry with great minds at the Faculty Club. Yawn.
To my surprise and delight, though, all Harvard wanted me to do was show up every once in a while and write something about something. That gave me an idea.
"Would it be okay if I wrote a scathingly partisan attack on the rightwing media and the Bush administration?"
"No problem," Harvard said absentmindedly.
"Count me in," I replied. "From now on call me 'Professor Franken.'"
"No," Harvard said, "you're not a professor. But you can run a study group on the topic of your choosing."
"Great," I said. "I've got the perfect topic: Write My Son's Harvard College Application Essay."
"No," they said. "Harvard students already know how to write successful Harvard applications, Al. We want you to teach them something new."
Harvard was right where I wanted it. "How about if the topic is: How to Research My Book?"
"Sure," Harvard said. "Most of our professors teach that course. Why, in the Biochemistry department, most of the graduate level courses are-"
Harvard was boring me. "I gotta run, Harvard. Thanks."
I had my Nexis, I had my Google, I had my Harvard fellowship, and I had my fourteen research assistants. I sat down to write. Nothing.
So I got on my knees and prayed for guidance. "How, God, can I best do Your work through this book? Who, dear Lord, is the audience for a book like this? And what's a good title?"
God answered, "YOU KNOW THOSE SHITTY BOOKS BY ANN COULTER AND BERNIE GOLDBERG?"
"The best-sellers that claim there's a liberal bias in the media?" I asked.
"TOTAL BULLSHIT," God said. "START BY ATTACKING THEM. HE'S CLEARLY A DISGRUNTLED FORMER EMPLOYEE, AND SHE JUST LIES. BY THE WAY, THERE'S SOMETHING SERIOUSLY WRONG WITH HER."
"That's pretty obvious."
"Okay, God, I'm writing this down."
"Got it. One last thing. Title."
"Hmm. I, uh, I'll work with that."

"A typically unabashed blend of razor-witted denunciation and old-fashioned gumshoe detective work directed at right-wing crazies both in and out of government... [An] exquisitely irritating new book." —The Independent, London

This is an excellent expose of the Republicans and their dirty tricks. Al has done a fine job of defending truth and reality. This book needs to be read by everyone in America today.
This book talks about the lies being spread by the right. From Ann Coulter to Bill O'Rilly, Al tells; you what they say, a joke, the truth and finishes with an explanation. This book was very enjoyable. From the start when Al talks to God to the end the book. Al makes polotics fun and the book seems like a conversation with Al rather than a nonfiction book. This book is great for those people who want to read nonfiction but haven't in the past.
I found this book to be not only fact based and intellectual but amusing and quite funny. Previously I was unaware that Al Franken was a writer, and I am glad that I have found him. I enjoyed the main message of the book, which was to see a fair look at the conservative, right side of America in politics and writing, and to see what was wrong with it. With all the humor, this book was a very easy read, and quite educational. I enjoyed Franken¿s hits against the liberally biased media, poking fun at people like Ann Coulter. There are so many corrupt people in the media, and all they seem to be feeding the pubic is lies. It was nice to have someone give us the real story, to get the hard-hitting facts. Pointing out the lies that people in politics and people in the media is something that this country needs, and I got a great kick out of it. I also liked that he pointed out that countries like The Soviet Union are not the evil countries that America makes them out to be. I thoroughly enjoyed his comics, especially the one about the ¿Supply Side Jesus.¿ I loved the chapter in the book when Franken talks about meeting Barbara Bush, where he compares how charismatic the woman seems, while in all reality she was not a nice person, to how charismatic President Bush seems, but how horrible his policies are. I liked that Franken talked about terrorism, and showed how closed-minded Americans are about the reasons for the attacks. I also got quite a kick out of the charts Franken made, while some had humor, others made it a lot easier to understand the situation or topic. Because of me being younger normally it is much harder for me to comprehend a lot of politics, but Franken had a way of making it understandable for me. There were many facts in this book that I had never heard of before, things that the media and Politicians have been covering up or softening intensely for the American public. As a young person, I was almost appalled to read and learn some of the things in this book. I was glad to learn truths about our country, because after all, knowledge is power. Many parts of this book made me think, and although sometimes when one has to think about something they don¿t want to hear is almost painful, it is much better to be living in the light than in the dark. I found this book enjoyable, and don¿t have anything bad to say about it. I believe that anyone could read this book, and get something out of it, including the conservative right winged people in this country. Therefore, I would definitely recommend this book.
Please learn to spell. I am so tired of all the republican people on here not knowing how to spell. Go Al Franken!
The audacity and majestic breadth of lies that right wingers utter is always humbling. To have someone meticulously analyze them, find the humor in them (and the persona's behind them), while having the journalistic integrity to cite his sources - was a breath of fresh air for the climate this book was written in. But, I found Franken to be a little more than mean spirited at times. Perhaps his targets deserved it? Perhaps not. But that negativity got to me at times, which is why this gets 4/5 stars despite being an otherwise brilliant read.
I felt that this book was a great source of insight into the side of politics that most conservatives won't even look at. Al Franken has a terriffic blend of, what seems like, sardonic humor mixed with solid research. Having said that, I found myself at a loss sometimes in this book, not exactly knowing how to take a certain joke, as it seemed that it would have to have been said in person. Also, it isn't all to friendly to the people who don't really know much about Liberals or Conservatives, I'm one of them, so to those types of readers, I think it would be a challenge to try to understand what Franken is writing about in his book. I had to personally look up definitions of Liberals and Conservatives, which is a good thing seeing as how that meant I enjoyed the book immensely, but bad because it should have been laid out in the beginning. In all fairness though, I doubt anyone who didn't know anything about the two sides would try to muscle their way through the book. My favorite part was the story, "Operation Chickenhawk: Episode One". It blended such a wonderful sense of humor, poking fun at actual political battles that went on in America, but also at, most likely, personal dislikes of certain choice American representatives. In conclusion, Al Franken is a brilliant author, but luckily gives credit where it's due, so to TeamFranken, I congratulate you on a successful book, and I learned a lot from your research. Thank you.
By Al Franken
The book Lies And the lying Liars Who Tell Them is a great political book to read for people that are at least fifteen years old. Not only because of its accuracy but how Al Franken. It is a mix of comidec responces, and also serious responses throughout the book. Another thing Al franken does is he shows how the Newspapers and publicity takes sides. For instance there is a graph in his book that shows violent crimes for Reagan, Bush, and Clinton. What he shows the same graph twice but one that Newspapers or Magazines can show with foul play. His untamperd graph shows little difference wich makes the violence levels almost the same. But the graph that uses foul play shows that Reagan has majorly reduced violence crimes. While Bush¿s and Clintons bars seam like thir going to busrt off of the book.
This book can¿t be praised enough for how much work he put into it, three hundred and Seventy-seven pages of pure genious. But he sticks to his point. That¿s point is the liars that leed our country. But in the beginning of the chapter the Lying years was a part of the book that really made me think. One thing he wrote was ¿Bush lied while claiming that Clinton had undermined the readiness of the military.¿ Now on the same page, page 217; he wrote direct quotes from Carl Levin and Richard Armitage. Carl Levin says ¿But I want to get back to the two divisions not being ready for duty, becase Mr. Amtiage has not answerd that. Are those divistions ready for duty, or arent they.¿ Armitage says ¿I believe those two divsions, Senator, are ready for duty.
As Levin answers, ¿That¿s not what Governor Bush said the other night, and that¿s why I think an appology is apropiate.¿
On the next page Al Franken crituques this information and even tells that instead of apolagizing , he bolted from the hearing room, knocking over a veteran reporter, breaking her hip and jaw. All of this information just shows how much information Al Franken put into this book. Now if you want a book opening the truth in politicks, seeing cold hard facts, and finally laghing on how he alborates on these subjects. This will be a great book for you.
Love this guy¿love his book. Loved him on SNL and actually got his autograph once! Okay, I¿m a moderate, so get on that ¿sides¿ issue, but this is one great book. BUT, Franken does back up his assertions with hard evidence, so what can you do? Heck, he persuaded me. And the book is funny and knowing, like the writings of Pynchon or Jackson McCrae (Katzenjammer) or even some Vonnegut. But mostly, it is informative and from a dry-witted, highly intelligent guy who will convince you that he¿s right! Must highly recommend McCrae¿s ¿Katzenjammer¿ for those who are into Franken¿s sense of humor.A well-educated man, a great comedian, and a great writer. I highly recommend it!
Okay, in this world there is ALWAYS going to be bias. Of course people who read Ann Coulter are going to think this is a piece of junk. People like me who are completely appaled by the lies and the decit and the false policies in our administration find this humorous. Get a sense of humor. When I read right wing jokes about liberals that are funny and creative I laugh, don't be a narrow-minded person and say this book stinks just becasue a liberal comedian wrote it. Some stuff is bias but a lot of it is based off of fact. Get over yourselves, each party lies, each party is crazy at points, but our administration, as outlined in this book, is out of control. Read the book, do some research, and understand a little bit before you come out here and start calling people liberal commies. The only reason I dislike George Bush and his staff members are because I love this country. No more of this liberal commie junk, Al franken first and foremost is a comedian who is making A JOKE!
Mr. Franken not only uncovers the lies and deceptions so easily overlooked by the masses, his points are well written with a sharp witted comedic edge which makes for easy reading. So many of his topics of discussion uncover so many facts that many of us either missed in the daily sludge of watered down news sources or just never saw with a clear mind. Franken lifts the smoke screen covering the truth and makes it easy to see the real inner workings behind the lies. Thank you mr. Franken for a GREAT book!!
This is a hilarious BackAtcha! to the ultra-conservative, even radical, pundits in the mainstream media today. Just as in his Rush Limbaugh book, the facts are indisputable, in fact, not one single item in either book, reported as fact, has been disproven. The interesting thing is that when confronted with these facts about their previous lies, O'Reilly and company have resorted to even more lies to cover the first lies. This book is Laugh-out-loud funny, but at the same time, deadly serious when dealing with the issues of media bias, corporate cover-ups and the attempt to indoctinate an entire population through lies, deception and hypocrisy. He exposes the Hitler-like methods being levelled at the American Public, through the media, by the NeoCons and their cronies. Entertaining, thought provoking, and hilarious!
Mr. Franken's book is funny, well-written, and well-researched. Bravo. Bellissimo. I think it's especially hillarious how Bill O'Reilly's and Fox's suit over Franken's satirical use of the phrase 'Fair and Balanced' shot the book from number four-hundred-and-eighty-something to number one on the Barnes and Nobles top-sellers list. Ah, the delicious irony. I would also agree with a previous reviewer that I got the impression that most if not all of the people who have written negative reviews have not read the book themselves, but have heard isolated quotes and anecdotes from friends, or just heard that it was bad. Myself, I'm going to reccomend it to all my friends who I think can handle it.
This book is a very funny and enlightening book. It exposes the hypocrisy of the conservative movement. This book could not have published a better time. We are blinded by the conservative media and the lies of the Bush administration. This book exposes the age old myth of 'liberal media.' This book is especially important considered the recent sex and drug scandals involving so called 'conservatives' such as Bill O'Reily and Rush Limbaugh. These conservatives preach moral values to other people but engage in immoral acts. These so called 'conservatives' lie all the time to mislead good Americans. It is must read for every smart American who see this obvious hypocracy.
Ive read this book over four times, and with each read it just gets better. Al is right about everything
Brilliant and provacative enlightenment
Al makes some good points: Bill O'Reilly's Voter Registration Card is a really big ' Gotcha! ' But the problem is that Franken characterizes every disputed statement as a deliberate lie, when in fact it's possible that some were simply honest mistakes: When VP Cheney talked about the Crosses at Arlington Cemetery, was he really trying to deceive people??? Some of the statements Pres Bush made regarding Iraq before the war were not accurate, but that does not prove Bush knew they were not accurate at the time. It's one thing to show a statement is untrue, it's something else to prove it was intentionally untrue. Franken needs to remember that.
This is a funny, well researched, and well written book. Is it as intellectually stimulating as the work of Zinn or Chomsky? No, because Al is a comedian. He has done a very good job of pointing out the absurdity of the 'liberal bias' myth and also the shortcomings of the Bush presidency. I am willing to bet that the overwhelming majority of reviewers giving this book one star have not read it. Furthermore, to claim that Franken has 'no class' and that one should read Ann Coulter instead is outrageous. Coulter is downright nasty in her liberal bashing. Notice, Al Franken would never say 'conservatives hate America' because such a blanket statement is unfair to any group of individuals. Yet, Coulter makes such statements constantly. Is this book 100% objective? No, Franken is a liberal, and he admits it. When purchasing this book you have to know what you're getting into to an extent. Therefore I wouldn't reccomend it to hard line conservatives, just as I wouldn't expect a hard line conservative to reccomend one of Coulter's books to me. Liberals and anyone middle of the road will enjoy this book a great deal. It might not change your opinions, but it will certainly make you laugh. I reccomend it more for entertainment's sake than for its value in seriously shaping one's poltical views.

Tony Bennett & Lady Gaga Do AC Together This Friday Night [VIDEO]

There's a chemistry between the two, and this Friday night the pair will show fans at their sold-out show at Borgata Event Center just why they're such a good fit together.


text: 000 FXUS63 KGLD 221123 AFDGLD Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Goodland KS 523 AM MDT FRI JUL 22 2016 .SHORT TERM...(Today through Sunday night) Issued at 353 AM MDT Fri Jul 22 2016 Main forecast issues will be continued heat and thunderstorm chances. Satellite continuing to show an amplified flow from the Pacific into North America. Features did show a slight westward shift over the last 24 hours. Currently a surface trough bisects the area from southwest to northeast. At jet level...models started out well. At mid levels...the Canadian and Gfs followed by the Nam were doing the best on the position and strength of the mid/upper level ridge over the country. The Sref appears to be doing the best at the surface. The Gfs/Canadian/Sref were look to be doing the best on the low level thermal pattern. Today/tonight...Looks like at this time that no convection will be ongoing over the area but will have to continue to watch for the rest of the night. Heat will continue. New temperature forecast, close to the previous one, combined with the expected dewpoints will mean that current Heat Advisory continue through early this evening. Surface trough mentioned above moves southeast out of the area and/or washes out. Next one redevelops to the west of the area during the afternoon and then moves across the area during the night. Complex shortwave trough begins to affect the area this afternoon into the overnight hours. The combination of these two feature will keep convection moving steadily east through the night which matches well with the previous forecast. However, there is above average uncertainty on how this will progress with the model output, especially from the convective allowing models, differing on coverage and location of convection during this time. Saturday/Saturday night...Above mentioned surface/shortwave trough combination looks to keep thunderstorms going through the morning. During the morning into the afternoon the surface trough/cold front slows down as the shortwave deepens and also slows down. Initial cause of this slowdown will be continued hot temperatures and higher relative humidities in the eastern portion of the area for one more day. However, models disagree on how hot it will get in not only the eastern portion of the area but the entire area. Tended to go in the middle of the two extremes of the guidance. As a result of this and collaboration with my neighbors, extended the Heat Advisory for Red Willow County down to Gove County along with Norton and Graham counties from early this evening into early Saturday evening. Because of this slow down the next affect will be increased thunderstorm chances across the southern and eastern locations of my area. This activity slowly moves east through the overnight hours. Sunday/Sunday night...It will be close but there still may be some lingering thunderstorms through mid morning. Behind the front, temperatures will be cooler but still hot, upper 80s into the middle 90s. Upslope winds spread across the area through the rest of the day with the next in a series of shortwave troughs moving through during the late afternoon and night. At the same time, a right rear quadrant will be near the northern portion of the area from late in the afternoon into the overnight hours. As a result another round of thunderstorms will move across the area with the best chance during the night. .LONG TERM...(Monday through Thursday) Issued at 227 AM MDT Fri Jul 22 2016 Long term will begin with ridging beginning to take shape over the Four Corners region and general troughing in the middle and upper Mississippi River valley on Monday. A series of H5 shortwave troughs will move from northwest to southeast Monday through Wednesday along the outer northeastern fringes of the ridge. This will slightly enhance the afternoon PoPs on Monday and especially on Tuesday when a stronger shortwave pushes across the CWA. The mean flow aloft during the Monday/Tuesday time frame will be west to northwest. This will shift to more of a westerly flow as we head into Wednesday due to a weakening of the western ridge over the southwestern States. Cross mountain flow and lee troughing will likely develop toward the end of the period, leading to a continued unsettled pattern with daily afternoon thunderstorm chances. Temperatures during the early extended period will be around or just above the seasonal average as the western high pressure influences the region, especially the western/southwestern portions of the CWA. Toward the end of the period, I expect afternoon highs to be right around the seasonal average of upper 80s to lower 90s. && .AVIATION...(For the 12Z TAFS through 12Z Saturday morning) Issued at 518 AM MDT Fri Jul 22 2016 At this time vfr conditions are expected through the period. Light and variable winds and quiet weather is expected through most of the first half of the period. Late in the afternoon to early in the evening, thunderstorms are expected to develop near the site and continue through the evening. However since there is a lot of uncertainty as to where the development will be and where that development occurs will not happen until halfway through the period, chose to only put vcts in at both sites near 00z until 05z. If a thunderstorm affects the site subvfr conditions could occur. && .GLD Watches/Warnings/Advisories... KS...Heat Advisory until 8 PM CDT Saturday for KSZ003-004-015-016-029. Heat Advisory until 7 PM CDT this evening for KSZ002-014-028. CO...NONE. NE...Heat Advisory until 8 PM CDT Saturday for NEZ081. Heat Advisory until 6 PM MDT /7 PM CDT/ this evening for NEZ079- 080. && $$ SHORT TERM...BULLER LONG TERM...TL AVIATION...BULLER

On Add New Post page when clicking the Add Media button nothing works. Just get the # at the end of the URL. Likewise clicking the + Add New Category button etc doesn't work either.
Its something to do with my theme not my plugins or anything because disable and deleted them all and still happening.
I installed the theme on another site running on old WP version and it works. But when I updated to latest 3.9.1 WP version the Add Media button etc does not work so its probably a comparability issue right?
Have contacted the dev but no response yet probably doesnt work on weekends. Just wondered if anyone had any ideas for a fix or to find out why its not working so I can go back to me dev with it.

Modulation of the Coelomic Fluid Protein Profile in the Earthworm, Lumbricus Terrestris, After Exposure to Copper as Copper Sulfate
Date: May 2010
Creator: Herring, Reese
Description: Proteomic techniques were used to analyze the protein profile of earthworm, Lumbricus terrestris, coelomic fluid collected by either whole body dissection method or the coelomic cavity puncture method. Data demonstrated that collection of coelomic fluid using the coelomic cavity puncture method protocol resulted in a 32% reduction, 377 +/- 4.5 vs 253+/- 19.9 (p=0.0007), in the number of individual proteins. It was determined that the coelomic cavity puncture method yielded a "cleaner" preparation, one less contaminated with extraneous proteins from intestinal tissue, gut contents, and body wall materials. This protocol was used in all later studies. The same proteomic techniques were used to evaluate the effects that exposure to Cu (1.0 μg/cm2) as CuSO4 had on the earthworm coelomic fluid profile. Comparison of protein profile from exposed earthworms demonstrated a significant reduction in the number of proteins expressed (184 ± 2.64 vs 253 ±19.9 p=0.0192) when compared to control organisms. Cu exposure also resulted in a modulation of the protein profile with treated earthworms expressing 47 new proteins that were not identified in unexposed worm coelomic fluid. Additionally, 116 proteins found in coelomic fluid collected from normal worms were absent in Cu exposed organisms. Finally, 137 proteins were conserved or ...

Comparison of Heteranthera Dubia (Jacq.) MacM.-associated Macroinvertebrates Between Georgraphical Regions in the United States
Date: May 2010
Creator: Harms, Nathan Earl
Description: Macroinvertebrates associated with the aquatic plant, water stargrass (Heteranthera dubia), were sampled from 12 waterbodies in four regions of the United States from June to August 2005. Taxa richness, evenness, and diversity were lowest in the Lower Midwest (LMW) region, and higher in Northern sites, especially the Upper Midwest (UMW), and Northeast (NE). While relative abundance varied from site to site and region to region, utilization of the plant by functional groups remained fairly constant. Collector-gatherers consistently comprised the largest portion of invertebrates sampled. The shredder/ herbivore functional group comprised an average of 17 % of total groups. Through an exhaustive literature review, it was found that shredder/ herbivores of water stargrass have not been reported in the literature. Because of this, the herbivore group was analyzed separately and consisted of 2,383 specimens representing 23 species. The most common groups were Rhopalosiphum sp., Nectopsyche spp. and chironomids. No differences were found in herbivore diversity or evenness between sampling regions, but species richness was significantly different.

Thermal Stress During Pre-Incubation Induces Subsequent Developmental Plasticity in Northern Bobwhites
Date: August 2010
Creator: Reyna, Kelly Shane
Description: Northern bobwhite populations have declined concurrent with global warming. The focal period of this study was the 12-d pre-incubation period, when bobwhite eggs remain in the nest without the thermal protection of the incubating parent. This study first established the storage and thermal limits of bobwhite eggs, then investigated how global warming may impact oviparous embryos and how bobwhite embryos react to acute and chronic doses of simulated drought temperatures during pre-incubation. First, the maximum storage limit of bobwhite eggs was determined by storing eggs ≤21 d and measuring hatching success and pH of egg albumen and yolk. Hatching success of stored eggs declined after 14 d, when yolk and albumen pH reached levels detrimental to embryonic development. Secondly, thermal limits were determined by exposing bobwhite eggs to hyperthermic temperatures (38-52 °C). Bobwhite embryos survived 50 °C for 1 h, 49 °C for 3 h and 46 °C for 6 h. Results indicate an adaptation to the naturally occurring temperature extremes that can occur in the bobwhite's southern range during pre-incubation. Subsequently, bobwhite eggs were exposed to either low constant (LC), low fluctuating (LF), high constant (HC), or high fluctuating (HF) temperatures during pre-incubation to determine if the nature of ...

Molecular systematics of Baird's pocket gopher (Geomys breviceps)
Date: August 2010
Creator: Bodine, Deanna Martinez
Description: Baird's pocket gopher (Geomys breviceps) is found in eastern Texas, eastern Oklahoma, central and western Arkansas, and western Louisiana. The cytochrome-b gene was sequenced and analyzed for 16 pocket gophers from throughout the range of the species. Similar phylogenetic trees were obtained using maximum-parsimony, maximum-likelihood, neighbor-joining, and Bayesian analyses. Two major clades were formed with northern individuals belonging to clade I and southern individuals belonging to clade II. G. b. sagittalis was paraphyletic in relation to G. b. breviceps in all analyses. Based on inconsistencies between the taxonomic classification and systematic relationships within Baird's pocket gopher, a taxonomic restructuring appears warranted.

The Influence of in Vitro Gill and Liver Metabolism of Xenobiotics on Fish Bioconcentration
Date: August 2010
Creator: Gomez, Cristi Frasier
Description: This dissertation examines the ability of in vitro biotransformation assays to provide an indication of metabolic potential. The potential for xenobiotic compounds to bioconcentrate in aquatic organisms is expressed through the bioconcentration factor (BCF). The metabolic loss of ibuprofen, norethindrone and propranolol was measured using rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) and channel catfish (Ictalurus punctatus) gill and liver S9 fractions, microsomes and cell suspensions. Metabolic transformation rates (kM) were extrapolated from in vitro intrinsic clearance of parent compound (CLm) and integrated into a refined BCF model. In general, CLm of test compounds was greater in liver S9 fractions and hepatocytes. However, the influence of hepatic metabolism on kM and BCF was limited by hepatic blood flow (20-25%) compared to gill blood flow (~100%). A significant difference was noted between BCF solely based on KOW and BCF including kM. These studies indicate that the inclusion of kM in BCF models can bring predicted bioconcentration estimates closer to in vivo values. Primary cell suspensions are preferred over subcellular fractions as cell suspensions possess both phase I and phase II enzyme activity. Further study was conducted on ibuprofen biotransformation pathways. As fish do not contain the same cytochrome P450 (CYP) 2C homologs known to ...

Functional Neural Toxicity and Endocrine Responses in Mice Following Naphthalene Exposure
Date: August 2010
Creator: Colbert, Crystal
Description: Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are a well studied and diverse class of environmental toxicants. PAHs act via the aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR), and studies have suggested that PAHs may elicit neurological and estrogenic effects. Doses of PAHs between 50 to 150 ppm may elicit neurotoxicity in rodent models. The present study investigated the effects of naphthalene on in vivo steroidogenesis in Swiss Webster male mice, and in vitro neural function of Balb-C/ICR mice frontal cortex neurons. These data suggest that naphthalene may not elicit steroidogenic effects at concentrations ranging from 0.2 to 25 mg/kg/day, following a 7 day subcutaneous dosing regime. In addition, naphthalene may cause functional toxicity of frontal cortex neurons at concentrations of 32 to 160 ppm naphthalene.

Endocannabinoid System in a Planarian Model
Date: December 2010
Creator: Mustonen, Katie Lynn
Description: In this study, the presence and possible function of endocannabinoid ligands in the planarian is investigated. The endocannabinoids ananadamide (AEA) and 2-arachidonoylglycerol (2-AG) and entourage NAE compounds palmitoylethanolamide (PEA), stearoylethanolamide (SEA) and oleoylethanolamide (OEA) were found in Dugesia dorotocephala. Changes in SEA, PEA, and AEA levels were observed over the initial twelve hours of active regeneration. Exogenously applied AEA, 2-AG and their catabolic inhibition effected biphasic changes in locomotor velocity, analogous to those observed in murines. The genome of a close relative, Schmidtea mediterranea, courtesy of the University of Utah S. med genome database, was explored for cannabinoid receptors, none were found. A putative fatty acid amide hydrolase (FAAH) homolog was found in Schmidtea mediterranea.

Induced Bradycardia Effects on Angiogenesis, Growth and Development in Early Development in Chicken Embryos, Gallus Domesticus
Date: December 2010
Creator: Ruck, Sylvia A.
Description: Cardiac performance, angiogenesis and growth was investigated during early chicken development. Heart rate, and thus arterial pulse pressure and cardiac output, were altered with the bradycardic drug ZD7288. Heart rates at 72 h of development of control embryos and those dosed with chicken Ringer were not different at 171 bpm. Acute and chronic application of ZD7288 caused significant bradycardia. Chronic dosing of Ringer and ZD7288 changed neither eye diameter nor development rate. Chronic dosing of ZD7288 did not significantly alter CAM vessel density close to the embryo (2, 3 and 4 mm) but at farther distances (5 and 6 mm) chronic dosing with both Ringer and ZD7288 decreased vessel density by 13 - 16%. Chronic dosing with ZD7288 also reduced body mass by 20%. Thus, lowered heart rate and cardiac output had little effect on vessel density or developmental stage, but did reduce embryo growth.

Thermal Identification of Clandestine Burials: A Signature Analysis and Image Classification Approach
Date: December 2010
Creator: Servello, John A.
Description: Clandestine burials, the interred human remains of forensic interest, are generally small features located in isolated environments. Typical ground searches can be both time-consuming and dangerous. Thermal remote sensing has been recognized for some time as a possible search strategy for such burials that are in relatively open areas; however, there is a paucity of published research with respect to this application. This project involved image manipulation, the analyses of signatures for "graves" of various depths when compared to an undisturbed background, and the use of image classification techniques to tease out these features. This research demonstrates a relationship between the depth of burial disturbance and the resultant signature. Further, image classification techniques, especially object-oriented algorithms, can be successfully applied to single band thermal imagery. These findings may ultimately decrease burial search times for law enforcement and increase the likelihood of locating clandestine graves.

Determination of Bioconcentration Potential of Selected Pharmaceuticals in Fathead Minnow, Pimephales promelas, and Channel Catfish, Ictalurus punctatus
Date: December 2010
Creator: Nallani, Gopinath C.
Description: The primary objective of this work was to determine the tissue-specific bioconcentration factors (BCFs) of the selected pharmaceuticals: norethindrone (NET), ibuprofen (IBU), verapamil (VER), clozapine (CLZ) and fenofibrate (FFB) in two freshwater fishes: fathead minnow and channel catfish. BCF tests on fathead followed the standard OECD 42-day test while a 14-day abridged test design was used in catfish exposures. Additional objectives included a) comparing the measured BCFs to the US EPA's BCFWIN model predicted values, b) comparing the BCF results from the standard and reduced tests, and c) prediction of chronic risk of the pharmaceuticals in fish using the human therapeutic plasma concentrations. Each test included uptake and depuration phases to measure tissue-specific kinetic BCFs. The results indicated that all the pharmaceuticals, except IBU, have the potential for accumulation in fish. Estimated BCFs for NET, VER and FFB may not be significant in view of the current regulatory trigger level (BCF ≥ 2000); however, CLZ's BCF in the liver had approached the criterion level. Significant differences were noticed in the tissue-specific uptake levels of the pharmaceuticals with the following general trend: (liver/kidney) > (gill/brain) > (heart/muscle) > plasma. IBU uptake was highest in the plasma. When compared to the measured ...

text: A current clamp is an accessory for a multimeter or other electrical testing device, and is used to measure AC or DC current. A clamp has a cable and connector to plug into the main testing device. One type of clamp is a clamp-on sensor, which has two jaws that open to encircle an electrical conductor such as a wire or pipe. The jaws may vary in shape or size. Another type of clamp is a flexible clamp made of cable that must be looped or wound around the conductor. With either type of current clamp, the sensor does not touch or interrupt the electrical circuit while taking measurements. Current clamps vary as to the range of current they can measure. Sometimes called current probes, current clamps are commonly used by electricians to maintain electrical systems and industrial equipment.

PORT-AU-PRINCE, Haiti (AP) - U.S. teams with search dogs have found and rescued a 16-year-old Dominican girl who was trapped for five days in a small hotel that crumbled in Haiti's capital.
A U.N. spokeswoman says "there are still people living" in
collapsed buildings. And she says people may still be alive there
for another day. She says more than 1,700 rescue workers have saved more than 70 lives since the quake.
Earlier today, in the U.N. headquarters destroyed in the quake, rescuers lifted a Danish staff member alive from the ruins. It
happened just 15 minutes after U.N. Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon
visited. The chief of the U.N. mission there and at least 39 other
staff members were killed.
And at a collapsed supermarket where search teams from Florida and New York worked overnight, a policeman reported that three people had been pulled out alive early Sunday morning.

One of the oldest economic principles!
Ecomonies are not a collection of processes all known. They are a collection of agents, mostly unknown with hidden internal states. Another way of saying this is that gathering information for centralization cost money. Economies process that information at many local and global levels and don't share it past the point of economic efficiency. That's in an idealized system. In an non-indeal system there's even wrong ideas.
A classic example of this is the maxim that the bad apples drive out the good apples. Meaning if you can't tell the difference between a good tasting apple and a bad tasting apple from the look (without tasting it) and if it costs less to produce a bad apple then the good apples won't sell as they are indistinguishable. In order to sell those apples you need to incur some cost. Do something that actually raises the price or lowers the profit like constitute an apple certification board, and set up a set of agents to test apples regularly for different farms, and persuade the consume your certification is valuable by giving away free taste demos. Otherwise there isn't information available to make a decision other than price. A similar thing occurs in how bad (debased) money drives the good (full gold) money out.
You can create systems to optimally manage agent based systems. Interesting there is work now that shows how denying information to consumers can increase econmoic efficiencies as well. This should come as no surprise to people familiar with Braes paradox in traffic control.
One of the core faults of communism is that while it can achieve some good results from linear programming notions of optimality is that it ignores that capitalist economies actually are information gathering systems that are very efficient).
first, we all know there's a reasnonable correlation between epa estimates and our observed results. It's quite good. Second there's been lots of tests on other standards to show they perfrom good real world estimates. The author is nit picking that a specific set of linear combinations of tests hasn't been correlated. That is if you have 5 test that are correlated with real world measurements and you average them it is true that the average has not been tested but logically we can estimate it's error from the other tests.

The best part of a Jackie Chan flick is the credit sequence out takes. In them you get to see how they filmed jackie chan jumping off a bridge onto a moving overcraft, how he lept between two buildings and nailed the fire escape, or how they made it look like he sledded off a cliff and grabbed a helicopter landing rail.
answers: He sledded off a cliff and grabbed a helicopter landing rail. No nets. He jumped off the building. No nets. he jumped off the bridge onto the hovercraft. he broke his leg. So they re-shot it with him doing it again this time in a cast that had been painted to look like the tennis shoe he was supposed to be wearing.
Seriously, when you know the guy is doing an insane stunt in a cast, one doesn't really need more and more and more to make it exciting. Watching Iron man plummet from the vacuum of space just isn't very thrilling compared to any dumb stunt jackie pulls off. I really dont' even mind he wears a safety wire when they are spinning him around at the end of ladder on a flying helicopter. it somehow doesn't ruin it for me.
pressure*area = weight of car.
Also his wheels just bolt on. They don't need a special axle drive to control the multiple degrees of freedom. So you can put them on a non-4 wheel drive car as well.
Traditional Omni wheels are unlikely to be suited for high speed travel but his are uniform (unsegmented) to they more plausibly might work as regular tires.
Here's Goodyears version of the Omniwheel.
It's a spherical tire and uses mag lev. it's just a concept not a prototype but it lacks the things you say are essential.
The contact patch of Any tire is identical. It soley depends on the pressure. pressure*area = weight of car.
His tires have 2 times as many sidewalls as a regular tire so it's plausible they don't have to be as stiff.
