The 23-year-old qualifier had four chances to reach the round of 16 but the dream run fell short against Daniela Hantuchova of Slovakia, who advanced with a 3-6 7-5 7-6 (4) victory.
Glushko first won three matches to qualify. She beat 20th-seeded Russian Nadia Petrova 6-3 6-4 in the opening round of the main draw for the first tour-level win of her career and followed that by beating wildcard Sachia Vickery 7-5 6-3.
Although Glushko held four match points on Hantuchova's serve in the 10th game of the third set, she failed to convert any and eventually lost in a climactic tiebreaker 7-4 after saving two match points herself in the decider.
"It was a good experience. It was my first time playing third round in a slam," Glushko told Reuters before the pain of losing took over her emotions.
"I'm just so disappointed from today that I can't be happy yet for it. I'm a happy person, just so sad."
Glushko was born in Ukraine to tennis coaching parents and moved to Israel when she was nine years old.
"I grew up in Israel and I totally have the mentality of an Israeli person," she said with a laugh.
The second-lowest ranked player left in the draw at 128, Glushko felt bad about not quite matching the battling example of her mentor, veteran Israeli player Shahar Pe'er.
Israeli Fed Cup team mate Pe'er has won six tour titles and been as high as 11th in the rankings with quarter-final showings at both the U.S. Open and Australian Open.
"Me and Shahar are really good friends, which is great to have because she inspires me so much," Glushko said.
"She is the biggest fighter I know. She would do anything to win, do anything on court to win. I'm on the Fed Cup team since I was 17, so it's been six years.

I was never one to give donations to anyone, for anything... but I think that seen as WordPress is completely free and offers so many excellent features, the developers should atleast not have to pay for hosting the website.
I would be more than pleased to give a small donation (I'm a student) to the WordPress team as a thank you for their developments.
Therefore I dont think it would be wrong for you guys to put up a PayPal donate button. Just a suggestion.

The B-class are a two-section, three-bogie articulated class of trams, (officially classed as light rail vehicles on the Yarra Trams website), that operate on the Melbourne tram network. Following the introduction of two B1-class prototype trams in 1984 and 1985, a total of 130 B2-class trams were ordered by the Victorian Government and built by Comeng (later ABB) in Dandenong.
They were developed for the conversion of the St Kilda and Port Melbourne railway lines to light rail, and introduced by the Metropolitan Transit Authority, and later the Public Transport Corporation between 1984 and 1994.
In preparation of the conversion of the St Kilda and Port Melbourne railway lines to light rail, two prototype B1-class trams were built in 1984 and 1985.[2][3]:31, 33 They were followed by 130 B2-class trams built between 1987 and 1994. All were built in Dandenong, by Comeng and later ABB.[2][4] They were the first articulated trams on the Melbourne tram network, and the B2-class were the first air-conditioned trams.[5]
On the request of the Victorian transport minister, who wished the last of the B-class order to be low-floor trams, an articulated low-floor design was developed by Comeng from 1989. The tram was to ostensibly utilise the components from the B-class and be partially low-floor, with internal stairs over the bogies. The design progressed quite far, with concept art, design schematics, and a mock up produced, and work on the first body shell commenced. The project was cancelled in 1990, with the new transport minister opting to finish the full B-class order instead of the low-floor variant; this was on the back of disputes between Comeng and the Public Transport Corporation, a cabinet reshuffle, and ABB's acquisition of Comeng.[6]:200–207 The prospect of low-floor access was raised again in the late 1990s when the Public Transport Corporation considered adding a low-floor section to the B-class trams, between the two sections. However, at a cost of $700,000 per tram it was not considered cost effective, and not carried out.[7]
Yarra Trams announced in late 2013 that $4.4 million in funding had been secured from Public Transport Victoria to upgrade the B-class fleet. Seats are being removed and replaced with 'lean seats' as fitted on C and C2 class trams, that will increase capacity by seven to nine passengers while providing space for prams and shopping carts, while extra hand rails will also be installed floor to ceiling, and seats will be re-covered. These changes are aimed at increasing capacity while providing better use of space and flow through the vehicles. Step-well lighting was also improved, providing better visibility by changing to LED lighting. The program aimed to add capacity of approximately 1,100 passengers to the B-class fleet and was completed in early 2014.[8] In June 2015, Yarra Trams and Public Transport Victoria announced the installation of an automated passenger information system, similar to that used on the E class fleet, commencing with B-class trams at Camberwell depot.[9] This programme also changed over the entire B class fleet destination displays from the previously fluorescent-lit dot-matrix to the more visible, bright orange LED type seen on the Z3 class fleet. The end of the B2-class tram production line with tram B2.2128 saw the last Melbourne-built Melbourne-run tram for 12 years, with the E-class being its successor.
The B1-class comprises two trams built as prototype light rail vehicles built by Comeng in 1984 and 1985 for the St Kilda and Port Melbourne light rail conversion projects.[3]:31, 33 Both B1s are fitted with air compressors and air brakes[2] (the only other trams currently in service also fitted with air brakes are the W class), and were originally fitted with both trolley poles and pantographs.[5] They were originally built with dual height steps to allow for level boarding at railway platforms and street level, but both have had these features removed, with low floor stops build adjacent to the railway platforms instead.[5] They have a very similar interior to proceeding B2-class, except they have no air-conditioning, and are fitted with opening windows and different sun shades.[2]
B1 2001 was delivered to the Metropolitan Transit Authority on 7 February 1984 and entered service on 19 December 1984, while B1 2002 entered service on 17 December 1985.[10][11] Both had, now rectified, compressor issues in the early to mid 2000s, and are currently still in service, being based at East Preston depot. [2][11]
B1 Class Trams are set to retire in 2016 and replaced with E Class Trams.
Following the B1-class trams, an order of 130 B2-class trams was completed by Comeng (later ABB) between 1987 and 1994, originally for the light rails they quickly spread across the system.[3]:31, 33 Although quite similar to the B1-class, they differed in several ways, they were the first Melbourne trams to feature air conditioning, include dot-matrix destination signs, and although the electronics of the B2-class were similar to earlier Z3 and A-class trams, they were fitted with gate turn-off control systems.[3]:31[4][5]
In August 1999, the Melbourne tram network was privatised, and the B2-class fleet was divided between Swanston Trams (later M>Tram) and Yarra Trams. Both companies began their own repainting and refurbishment program that saw new liveries and internal colour schemes. Following M>Tram ceasing operations in 2004, all B2-class trams went to Yarra Trams.
In 2003 Yarra Trams refitted ten B2-class trams with the "Apollo" seating layout, in which some seats were replaced with "bum racks" (similar to those seen in the C-class trams), in an effort to increase passenger capacity.[12] All B2-class trams remain in service and are painted in either the Yarra Trams livery, or have all-over advertising applied.[4]
B1-class trams operate on the following routes:
B2-class trams operate on the following routes:
- 1: East Coburg to South Melbourne Beach
- 3/3a: East Malvern to Melbourne University
- 8: Moreland to Toorak
- 11: West Preston to Victoria Harbour
- 19: North Coburg to City
- 55: West Coburg to Domain Interchange
- 59: Airport West to City
- 64: East Brighton to Melbourne University
- 67: Carnegie to Melbourne University
- 70: Wattle Park to Waterfront City
- 75: Vermont South to City
- 86: Bundoora RMIT to Waterfront City
B-class trams operated on the following routes prior to their abolition:
- 95: Melbourne Museum to City
- 112: West Preston to St Kilda (Replaced with 12 And 11)
The Cascade Program involves the gradual transfer of B-Class trams from other depots receiving modern trams (e.g. Southbank, New Preston, Brunswick) primarily and initially to Glenhuntly Depot, in order to replace their now defunct Z1/2 class fleet.

Delwyn Crawford counts herself lucky her cancer was detected,
as she could have ignored a ''flat patch'' of skin under one
Next Sunday, she will join 150 wellwishers at a pink ribbon
breakfast at Luna, Dunedin, which will raise money for breast
cancer research.
Ms Crawford (42), of Dunedin, said the unusual mark resembled
a ''stretch-mark''.
After searching the internet, she decided it might be
harmful. A subsequent mammogram showed nothing, but an
ultrasound identified a 1.2cm lump. She had a lymph node
removal procedure last September, followed by chemotherapy.
On Monday, she starts six weeks of radiotherapy to ensure the
cancer has not spread.
The mother of two had no family history of breast cancer, and
the illness was a ''bolt from the blue''. She thanked her
family, and workplace Signal Management Group, where she is
office manager, for their ''fantastic'' support through her
Breakfast organiser Nicola Donaldson said hearing the bad
news about her close friend of more than 15 years ''broke a
little piece of my heart''. Mrs Donaldson said her friend's
strength and positivity was inspirational. Initially, she
aimed to host up to 30 people. But the event gained momentum,
and about 150 tickets have sold. She has been overwhelmed by
the support in the community.
The breakfast was supported by Luna, and child-care provider
Wild Things. Other businesses had given goods and services
for a charity auction.
The pair hope to raise $5000 for the New Zealand Breast
Cancer Foundation.
A University of Otago breast cancer researcher would speak at
the breakfast.
May is Pink Ribbon Breakfast month, during which fundraising
events are held around the country to fund research.

Schiff seals deal with Reckitt
23 November 2012 Business
Boards approves $1.4 billion Reckitt offer as Bayer pulls out of running
Bayer's $1.2 billion (£740 million) bid for Schiff Nutrition, a US company specialising in vitamins and nutritional supplements, could be in trouble following a higher bid from another company. UK consumer goods giant Reckitt Benckiser has announced it is willing to pay $1.4 billion for Schiff.
'This acquisition would provide a powerful entryway into the large and rapidly growing $30 billion global VMS [vitamin, minerals and supplements] market,' said Reckitt Benckiser chief executive Rakesh Kapoor. 'We are confident that the VMS market drivers, notably changing demographics and increased awareness of the health and wellness benefits of VMS products, will provide significant long term growth potential in what is currently a very fragmented market.'
Schiff was worth $259 million in sales in its 2011–12 financial year and currently employs 400 people at its headquarters and manufacturing site in Salt Lake City, Utah, and offices in Emeryville, California. Its portfolio includes big brands in the joint care (Move Free), cardiovascular health (MegaRed) and immune support (Airborne) markets.

A Glynn County bus driver and an assistant have been suspended from their jobs after they were accused of leaving a 5-year-old special needs student strapped into a bus alone for two hours.
School system spokesman Jim Weidhaas said the board of education will discuss the case Tuesday.
He told The Brunswick News that the driver and the assistant have not driven a bus since the incident happened.
The child was picked up last month and should have been taken to a pre-kindergarten program.
Instead, the student was left strapped in a car seat and left unattended for nearly two hours after the vehicle reached a bus depot.
Another driver noticed the child after boarding the bus. The names of the suspended employees have not been publicly released.

Exhibitors at conventions and trade shows across the U.S. spend $25 Billion a year to exhibit their products and services. This is a large portion of a business's advertising expenses. Businesses who exhibit must focus on their ROI for conventions and shows, so we make the purchasing of exhibitor insurance convenient, easy, and fast. Focus on delivering your message to customers and prospects, and let us handle your convention insurance.
Insurance for your exhibit display is also extremely affordable. Our prices start just over $100 for a 5 day convention. Almost all conventions will require exhibits at their shows to carry the industry standard of $1 Million / $2 Million in general liability insurance coverage. This insurance protects both you the exhibitor, the convention organizer, and venue against third party liability claims. Most exhibit booths are generally pretty harmless, but there are some that are more complex such as multi-story exhibits. Exhibits may have complicated build-outs that can cause slip and falls. We have also seen display boards that have become detached from their mounting and fallen, causing injury to the exhibit attendees.
At Exhibitor Insure Now, our process is very convenient, easy and fast.

If for some reason you make a typo, or do not get the exhibitor convention description correct, we have an online self-service portal right on our site.

Hi guys,
I noticed today that my category slugs are not what they used to were - I am pretty sure but not 100% but I did notice it just now.
It's not with every slug.
I have lets say some main categories and a few sub categories and even some more thirdlevel categories.
there are 2 of them that have a slug I cannot change (2nd level cat)
the slug is toplevel cat name dash second level cat name (uneditable)
with another I have a slug that is a combination of 2 toplevel slugs ... unchangeable.
Any body else encounter this?
will dig into db and see what it says there.

Damn you, Tyler Green!
Yesterday, Modern Art Notes reported that Aqua Art Miami, the fair concurrent with Art Basel Miami Beach run by two Seattle artists, Jaq Chartier and Dirk Park, will be expanding this December.
And not just expanding, but doubling—and improving.
In addition to the hotel part of Aqua on the beach, Chartier and Park will be renting out a warehouse across the bridge in Wynwood, near where NADA holds its popular fair. Asked whether Aqua is going head-to-head with Nada, Chartier told MAN: "Definitely."
Aqua's warehouse presentation will have larger booths than NADA, permanent walls (since Aqua will be renting the warehouse year-round—which raises the question, is Aqua expanding beyond a December phenomenon?), and a layout that does away with the usual shopping aisles setup.
Bold, bold, bold, bold, bold.

ROSTOV-ON-DON, Russia (AP) - A brown bear named Stepan has moved from a cramped cage to spacious zoo digs, thanks to actor Eric Roberts .
The star of ABC's "Less Than Perfect" and his wife, Eliza, noticed the bear last fall when they were in southern Russian town of Sochi for a film festival, Rostov-on-Don Zoo spokesman Alexander Lipkovich said. Stepan was behind bars, often swilling beer patrons of a nearby restaurant gave him.
After the couple tried unsuccessfully to take Stepan back to the United States, they turned to actress and animal rights activist Kim Basinger, Lipkovich said. Basinger joined the cause and helped arrange Stepan's transfer to the zoo, about 600 miles south of Moscow.
Stepan's more spacious home includes a pool, and zoo officials are trying to find him a female companion.
Roberts is also known for offbeat roles in films including "The Pope of Greenwich Village."
ATLANTA (AP) - Oprah Winfrey will donate $5 million to Morehouse College, the school announced.

The talk show host's pledge came as Morehouse launched its largest-ever fund-raising campaign, hoping to receive at least $105 million by 2006.
Winfrey, who had previously donated $1 million to the historically black college, is the school's top donor.
President Walter Massey said Morehouse will use the money to offer more scholarships, upgrade the campus and make the college more competitive.
"Our mantra has been that we want to be considered among the finest liberal arts colleges in the country while still remaining the college of choice for African-American men," Massey said Friday.
LOS ANGELES (AP) - Peter O'Toole has agreed to accept an honorary Academy Award after politely balking because he thought the honor meant his career was over, an Oscar official said.
The 70-year-old Irish actor, who has never won an Oscar despite being nominated seven times, will appear at the March 23 ceremony, Frank Pierson , president of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences, said Friday.
O'Toole's manager, Johnnie Planco, declined to confirm the academy's announcement, saying the matter was being kept a surprise.
O'Toole initially mistook the offer as a sign that his peers thought he could no longer win a competitive award. He sent a handwritten letter last month saying he was "enchanted" at the thought of an honorary Oscar but that he was "still in the game, and might yet win (the award) outright."
He asked if it were possible for the academy to "please defer the honor until I am 80?"
O'Toole has earned best-actor nominations for "Lawrence of Arabia," "Becket," "The Lion in Winter," "Goodbye, Mr. Chips," "The Ruling Class," "The Stunt Man" and "My Favorite Year."
FORT BRAGG, N.C. (AP) - There was a personal connection for country star Faith Hill when she entertained 7,000 paratroopers at Fort Bragg this week.
"She and I were best friends" while growing up in Star, Miss., said Gaye Knight, wife of Capt. Dan Knight, a chaplain with the 1st Battalion of the 505th Parachute Infantry Regiment.
Hill arrived in Fayetteville Wednesday to spend time with her friends and set up for Thursday's concert.

Nine nursing students in a rural nursing class at The University of Texas at El Paso traveled to three rural Texas locations to witness firsthand the need for healthcare providers in underserved areas. Last summer, UTEP Clinical Assistant Professor Dayle Sharp, RN, MSN, PhD, toured the Texas towns of Dell City, Sierra Blanca and Fort Hancock with the students.
"They got to [see]what rural services are actually out there, which are pretty much none," Sharp, a rural health family nurse practitioner since 1999, said in an article on UTEPs website. "For the most part, they come into El Paso."
Before the trip, Sharp showed the class videos of Appalachia in the eastern U.S. and other underserved communities, but students said the lack of medical care available in the areas they visited still was surprising.
"Its a rude awakening for students. Theyre used to everything being right nearby," Sharp said in the article.
In Dell City, the class learned the towns only clinic closed earlier in the year, leaving residents without emergency medical care in the case of an injury. Residents injuries often are related to accidents involving farming equipment, according to the article.
According to Sharp, the town ambulance is driven by volunteers who have limited certification and lack medical training. "The [ambulance personnel]cant even start an IV out there," she said in the online article. "Theyre not trained. What they do is they take patients to Highway [62], where they meet another ambulance. They park on the side of the highway, transfer the patient, and [emergency medical technicians]start an IV and then transport them to El Paso."
Students rode in the towns ambulance, pretending to be patients.
Dell City Mayor Marcy Guillen said the experience was a real eye-opener for the future nurses.
"I am sure they did not realize what really rural nursing was all about," Guillen said in the article. "I do hope that whatever they do, at least one of them will consider going into a rural nursing career."
When students arrived at Fort Hancocks only clinic, they began packing boxes of food for 250 families living in the surrounding rural areas. The clinic is open Monday through Friday and is staffed by a medical technician. A physicians assistant is available two days a week. Community health staff focus on preventive healthcare such as educating the public about exercise and nutrition.
For Cassandra Gonzalez, a sixth semester nursing student, the trip left her considering a career in rural nursing. "This class is a fantastic way for students to get exposed to the tremendous difference in healthcare and what people in these communities are faced with," Gonzalez said in the article.
Sharp, who started her career by training in a state prison, also took the class to the West Texas Detention Facility at Sierra Blanca, which houses federal immigration detainees.
The facility is staffed by an RN, a licensed vocational nurse, a medical assistant, a pharmacist and a dental assistant. A doctor is on call 24 hours a day, seven days a week, but only visits the prison on Fridays. Students learned the detainees have a high incidence of diabetes, back pain and high blood pressure.
"Sierra Blanca was just a completely new experience, being able to go into the detention center and see how nursing is performed in that type of setting," sixth semester student Jessica Tysz said.
Sharp agrees the firsthand experience makes a big difference. "Studies show that if you teach somebody about the rural area and expose it to them, they are more apt to choose it as an option," Sharp said. "We need nurses out there so badly."

The common practice of applying the theory of stationary stochastic processes to a cyclostationary process by introducing random phase(s) into the probabilistic model in order to stationarize the process can lead to erroneous results, such as incorrect formulas for power spectral density. This is illustrated by showing that commonly used formulas for signals that have undergone frequency conversion or time sampling can be incorrect. The source of error is shown to be inappropriate phase-randomization procedures. The correct procedure is described, and corrected formulas are given. The problem is further illustrated by showing that commonly used resolution and reliability (mean and variance) formulas for spectrum analyzers must be corrected for cyclostationary signals. It is explained that all corrections to formulas reflect the effects of spectral correlation. These effects are inappropriately averaged out by inappropriate phase-randomization procedures. It is further explained that these inappropriate procedures destroy the important property of ergodicity of the probabilistic model.

Volunteer gets job leading effort to build Asheville performing arts center
Published: Wednesday, May 28, 2008 at 4:58 p.m.
Last Modified: Wednesday, May 28, 2008 at 5:00 p.m.
ASHEVILLE The man who has served as an unpaid consultant on the Asheville Area Center for the Performing Arts for the past four years has been hired to direct efforts to create the center.
James Baudoin will begin his work as executive director in June. The Asheville Area Center for the Performing Arts is expected to cost between $65 million and $85 million. It would be a 2,100-seat venue for theater and music and for community events.
It would serve the functions now served by the 2,350-seat Thomas Wolfe Auditorium that advocates for a new center say is outdated. Joyce Dorr, president of the the Asheville centers board of directors, said the board has raised about $5 million so far. Additional funding will come from private donations and from public financing.

D.P. age 38 y., male. First visit: Oct. 2007.
"I have a lot of neck, shoulder and back pain. I had a whiplash injury last summer, and gradually re-gained my mobility." "I do martial arts—eight different forms. I know all the forms, movements, but there's no spirit. I'm trying to integrate the physical and the spiritual. It's so frustrating not to be able to learn new movements. I'm not ready to begin preparation for my black belt."
"Every time I start to feel good, I come to a precipice – the universe changes the rules. I was considered a genius up until third grade. Then we moved, and I lost my familiarity, my advantage."
"I was accepted at a preparatory school where the academics were really tough. They had a sign: 'These are the universities our graduates are attending: Harvard, Yale, etc.' I thought 'Wow, these are the expectations'."
"We moved to one school where the kids were just dumb and evil. After another move my brother was framed for securities fraud. Then I just said 'To hell with it'. I was just mad."
"At the university, I had the knowledge, but not the skill to succeed. I had hope, optimism –I got a taste of it– then collapse.""I couldn't handle doing mindless tasks—it would just kill me. They told me 'you can't graduate without being part of the theatre program. You need to do something spectacular'. So I formed a theatre company, and many students went on to successful careers."
"At that time I was dating a valedictorian. I had a lot of work to do before I could hold onto someone of her stature. I was employing all my secret tools."
"My whole life I wanted to prove to my parents that I was what they thought I was- at five years of age. I want them to see success–real success. In '99 I learned to work behind the scenes in the mortgage business. Then my wife got pregnant and real life started hitting me. Everything changed at my job – I got fired. I thought 'All right, enough of this behind the scenes stuff. Let's tell people the truth in the beginning'. But that doesn't work in sales."
"Then I got another job – I was doing pretty well. I was learning a lot about myself. Then I was threatened by my former partner.""I never told my wife when I was interviewing for my next job. They said 'You'll be a specialist, an expert'. All of a sudden, the program started going away. I learned how to show up, serve, and then the mortgage business collapsed."
"I trained well, but implementing is difficult. My manager has said I'm one of the top specialists in the nation. I've been commended, made major breakthroughs. One month ago I was given a new tool that made my job easier, but I don't get paid right away."
"I get very depressed. My life energy is depleted. It would be so draining for me to work in a production line. I wouldn't be serving a higher purpose. It's beneath me. I'm capable of so much more." "I've been accused of having grandiose ideas, but it's only delusions of grandeur if you haven't done it – no, I've done it!"
"I'm not serving a higher purpose. I wrote a book of poetry which can show you how depressed I can get.""I do a lot of goal setting. I know my moral compass, my goals, my priorities. It's an internal process. Every time I envision my goal, do what I'm supposed to do, the whole thing collapses."
"I've always had a fear of being rich and powerful. That opens me up to being killed. It's like battling Satan—as long as you're quiet, you're safe. You get out there and expose yourself, then it's like battling."
"I encounter evil—you're out there on the battle-lines, the front lines—it's scary for me to be out there on the front lines. I never wanted to be a politician—you're out there, exposed, and people are angry. There's retribution—they could kill you or your family. I don't want to jeopardize myself or my family."
"I have a fear of being exposed—I'm just waiting for some consequence. But I try to serve Truth, a higher purpose. Evil can never hurt you if you have God on your side, but it sure makes life challenging."
"I need a breakthrough. I'm afraid of failing and I'm afraid of succeeding. I always hoped to write something that would give hope to people's lives."
Here's a poem I wrote – the title is "Retreat":
Why do I have to be so poor in spirit?
Where is the joy I used to know so well?
Why do I stay awake all night and sleep all day?
How can I be alone to think without crying?
I know there is a God out there.
I feel Him with me.
When I sleep, my dreams calm me.
He is there, protecting my soul.
I gave it to him, my shell on Earth.
Satan offered me everything here.
He promised me wealth, success, profit.
He called that happiness. That I would want no more.
But, I said no. I was spoken for.
My soul is saved but it struggles with pain.
My soul is tormented with weariness and sorrow.
I have battled evil and triumphed.
Soldiers must retire, so, I take my leave.
I am too tired and short of breath to fight any more Crusades.
I do not turn my back on God, rather I beg Him for mercy.
I've given more than I can. My passion is cooled
And my anger subsided. I've fought many battles
And lived through the sword. I need a new front.
My mind must be my weapon now.
Retreat is in order . . . Go back, re-group, a leave is in order.
The time to fight will come again. Be prepared
A new life is waiting. Forget the past.
Tomorrow never comes, today is passing by.
Seize the gift God has given, the flame will burn eternally.
Analysis: This patient has a pattern of "two steps forward, two steps back", but most of this is happening internally, rather than in the external world. He's not manifesting what internally he believes he's capable of, which is to express a "silver theme toward a golden ideal". In other words, he wants to make a difference in the world, but he's conflicted by the fact that if through exercising his inner power he becomes "visible", then he becomes a target for persecution.

Special Order
'I am glad that I am alive, if, for no other reason, because of the joy of reading this book.'-Jack London. First published in 1915, "Victory" follows the character Axel Heyst, a Swede who renounces the world and lives on a remote island in the Malay Archipelago. He is shaken from his self-imposed isolation, however, after a chance encounter with Lena, a young Englishwoman in a touring ladies' orchestra. Axel comes to her aid when she is accosted by a loutish hotel owner. They seek refuge on his island, and Axel begins to see the value of life as a relationship with Lena unfolds. All too soon, however, three men set on revenge for the hotel owner, arrive on the island. The events that follow spiral into a devastating tragedy, and Conrad ultimately compels readers to decide on what constitutes defeat or victory in this characteristically descriptive, powerful narrative.
About the Author
Polish author Joseph Conrad is considered to be one of the greatest English-language novelists, a remarkable achievement considering English was not his first language. Conrad s literary works often featured a nautical setting, reflecting the influences of his early career in the Merchant Navy, and his depictions of the struggles of the human spirit in a cold, indifferent world are best exemplified in such seminal works as Heart of Darkness, Lord JimM, The Secret Agent, Nostromo, and Typhoon. Regarded as a forerunner of modernist literature, Conrad s writing style and characters have influenced such distinguished writers as F. Scott Fitzgerald, Ernest Hemingway, William S. Burroughs, Hunter S. Thompson, and George Orwell, among many others. Many of Conrad s novels have been adapted for film, most notably Heart of Darkness, which served as the inspiration and foundation for Francis Ford Coppola s 1979 film Apocalypse Now.

Cancer Gene Tests Turn Out to Be Far From Simple
By JANE E. BRODY
Published: August 17, 1999
When scientists identified two genes, BRCA-1 and BRCA-2, as the culprits in most hereditary cases of breast cancer, the discovery prompted much excitement and hope. Women with family histories of breast cancer would at last be able to determine if they, too, were likely to get the disease. And so armed, they could take preventive action.
But as with most highly promising developments in cancer, the decadelong story of the breast cancer genes, while it has revealed important insights and greatly increased scientists' knowledge, has turned out to be far from simple, both from a scientific perspective and a personal one.
From studying the behavior of the breast cancer genes, for example, researchers now know that a woman can inherit a high risk of breast cancer from her father as well as from her mother, so it is not enough to consider only the mother's cancer history when estimating a woman's risk.
In addition, the three mutations in BRCA-1 and BRCA-2 initially identified as rendering a woman highly prone to breast cancer have since multiplied into hundreds of mutations, each of which may confer a different degree of risk.
Moreover, the genes appear to play a role in other illnesses besides breast cancer, and to affect men as well as women.
Mutations in the genes, for example, greatly increase a woman's risk of developing ovarian cancer, which is both harder to detect and much harder to cure than breast cancer. And a recent report in the Journal of the National Cancer Institute linked mutations in BRCA-2 to an increased risk of developing cancers of the prostate, pancreas, gallbladder, bile duct and stomach, as well as malignant melanoma. Other studies have suggested a modestly increased risk of colon cancer.
To complicate matters further, the same gene defect may not behave the same way in all families. In some families, in which few or no cases of cancer have yet occurred, the gene's ''penetrance'' -- that is, its tendency to express itself -- may be much lower than in other families, where several cases of breast or ovarian cancer have occurred in blood relatives.
Finally, many researchers strongly suspect that BRCA-1 and BRCA-2 are not the only genes that can go awry and raise the risk of breast cancer. As more is learned about the human genome, other breast cancer genes may show up.
One of the most common misconceptions about breast cancer is that some cases are genetically influenced and some are not. It is true that only a small percentage of all cancers, including breast cancer, is inherited, that is, the likelihood of getting them is transmitted at conception from parent to son or daughter, either through the egg or through the sperm that fertilized it. In such cases, the gene defect appears in every body cell, including blood cells.
But genetic defects are at work even in cancers that are not inherited: for a normal cell to become a cancer cell, a genetic mutation or deletion must first occur, destroying the mechanism that puts the brakes on the cell's ability to reproduce. As a result, cancer cells multiply endlessly, like the broom in the Disney version of ''The Sorcerer's Apprentice.''
As Dr. Michael G. Muto, director of the Familial Ovarian Cancer Center at the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute in Boston, and Dr. Janet E. Shepherd, a gynecologist in Boulder, Colo., pointed out in a journal article, ''Cancer is always a genetic disease.''
A mutation that allows uncontrolled cell growth can occur at any time during life, induced either directly or indirectly, by exposure to a toxic substance like tobacco smoke or to a chronic irritant like alcohol or stomach acid. Such mutations can also occur spontaneously, when a mistake is made during cell division that is not detected by the cell's built-in surveillance system.
A cancer-causing mutation in a breast or ovarian cell acquired during a woman's lifetime cannot be passed on to her children. But researchers studying the genetics of breast cancer say it is possible, even likely, that all breast cancers involve mutations in BRCA-1 or BRCA-2 but that in only a small percentage of these cases is the mutation inherited from a woman's mother or father. Dr. Mary-Claire King, geneticist at the University of Washington in Seattle, said, ''There is increasingly good evidence for a close connection between inherited and noninherited forms of breast cancer, although what that connection is is not yet clear.''
There are three main types of genes involved in cancer: oncogenes, tumor-suppressor genes and mismatch/repair genes.
Oncogenes dictate the production of proteins that stimulate normal cell growth. If a mutation occurs in an oncogene, cells can proliferate at a greatly accelerated rate. Excessive cell proliferation -- as, for example, might happen in an esophagus chronically exposed to stomach acid -- greatly increases the chance that mutations will occur that could result in cancer.
Tumor-suppressor genes, as their name implies, place brakes on cell division. If a mutation inactivates a tumor-suppressor gene, cell multiplication can continue unchecked. BRCA-1 and BRCA-2 are tumor-suppressor genes that seem to be especially important in controlling cell multiplication in the breast and ovaries.

First impression on unpacking the Q702 test unit was the solid feel and clean, minimalist styling.
Anthony Grifoni
For work use, Microsoft Word and Excel programs pre-installed on the device are adequate for preparing short documents.
Steph Mundell
The Fujitsu LifeBook UH574 allowed for great mobility without being obnoxiously heavy or clunky. Its twelve hours of battery life did not disappoint.
Andrew Mitsi
The screen was particularly good. It is bright and visible from most angles, however heat is an issue, particularly around the Windows button on the front, and on the back where the battery housing is located.
Simon Harriott
My first impression after unboxing the Q702 is that it is a nice looking unit. Styling is somewhat minimalist but very effective. The tablet part, once detached, has a nice weight, and no buttons or switches are located in awkward or intrusive positions.

Coding For Beginners
You come into contact with code and computer systems every day sometimes without even realising it. Coding might sound mind-boggling but understanding the basic principles and building blocks that underpin pretty much every programming language is well within the grasp of us all.
In this session, technical writer Chris Mills will take you gently through all the programming fundamentals you'll need to gain a working understanding on how code and computer systems work, and you'll even get to write some simple code yourself. All you need is a computer and an open mind – no previous knowledge required.

Chief Auditor Is Appointed by New Panel
Published: April 18, 2003
(Page 2 of 2)
One of the law's provisions — a requirement that auditors evaluate managers' reports on their companies' internal controls — will go into effect this fall. The oversight board will have to take prompt action to develop standards to be applied to those reports, Mr. Carmichael said.
Finance executives have been worried that there will be too little time to prepare for the new reporting requirement, said Colleen A. Sayther, the chief executive of Financial Executives International, which has 15,000 finance executives as members.
An arm of the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants had proposed standards for the auditor evaluation of the management report, but the oversight board issued its own interim rules earlier this week, and those interim standards are less onerous, she said.
If the oversight board "comes up with more onerous standards next year, fine," she said. But she said that moving to tougher standards this year would be too much.
Mr. Carmichael is the director of the Center for Financial Integrity at Baruch College of the City University of New York. He is also the lead author of a widely used reference book on accounting, "The Accountant's Handbook."
"When my wife read the job description, she said, `You've been preparing for 40 years to do this job,' " Mr. Carmichael said. He added that he expects to start work at the board sometime in May.
Mr. Carmichael said he was aware of the resistance he would probably face as a result of proposing changes to the standards auditors must follow in reviewing financial reports of public companies.
"It's certainly something we expect," he said. "But I think that the fact that the P.C.A.O.B. is going to set standards has already been determined, and there's not going to be any going back from that."
Accounting firms have already expressed concern that another oversight board proposal — that accounting firms meet certain registration requirements in order to conduct audits of publicly held companies in the United States — is too onerous.
"We believe it is obvious that obtaining and reporting information concerning tens of thousands of individuals would be an overwhelmingly burdensome task," the accounting firm Deloitte & Touche wrote to the oversight board, addressing the proposed registration requirements.
"Moreover we question both the relevance of much of this information to the board's task, as well as the use that the board will be able to make of much of the voluminous data that it currently proposes applicants to provide," the firm wrote.
The oversight board announced yesterday that it would hold an open meeting on Monday on the registration requirements.

Honda Alters Acura TL 'Beaver' Grille to Reverse Sedan's Slide
Honda Motor Co., seeking to restore sales of its top-selling luxury sedan, altered the looks of its Acura TL to replace a grille derided by a critic for making the car look like a "robot beaver."
The refreshed 2012 TL, shown today at the Chicago Auto Show, has new front and rear designs, including a smaller grille, modified bumpers and lights, as well as a six-speed transmission to boost fuel economy, Jeff Conrad, vice president of Acura sales, told reporters today. Efficiency improves to 29 mpg on the highway from 26 mpg currently.
While both overall Acura sales and TL deliveries rose last year, demand for the midsize luxury sedan in 2010 was 34,049 units, half the model's volume peak of 78,218 in 2005. Styling changes in 2008 "may have been a bit too bold," Conrad said.
Acura was the first premium auto brand in the U.S. by a Japanese automaker when models bearing the name arrived 25 years ago. Unlike Toyota Motor Corp.'s Lexus line, the top-selling luxury make in the U.S. for 11 years, Acura sales have fallen from a peak of 209,610 cars and light trucks in 2005 to 105,723 in 2009.
Designs and lack of a rear-wheel-drive model account for the brand's problems, said Bill Visnic, senior product analyst for Edmunds.com.
"Acura is dialing back its controversial styling, and that is a step in the right direction," Visnic said. "Even if buyers respond to the new TL it won't propel Acura into parity with the volume rear-wheel-drive luxury automakers."
The Marysville, Ohio-built car's 3.5-liter V-6 engine was also improved to further aid fuel efficiency, Conrad said. City mileage increased to 20 mpg, up from 18 mpg.
Auto reviewer Dan Neil, writing for the Los Angeles Times in October 2008 when the TL underwent a complete design change, said the grille created a "buck-toothed visage, like a very large anime robot beaver."
Honda's U.S. sales unit is based in Torrance, California.

I wish Latvia were ahead of us.
This can't be correct. We're #1 in everything. EVERYTHING.
Wasn't Latvia the made-up Marvel comics kingdom ruled with an iron fist by Dr. Doom?
I read the article, but I still don't really understand why the U.S. is so much worse off than other industrial nations.
Greg, I'm sure it has nothing to do with the fact that we are the ONLY industrialized nation with NO national health coverage.
Thank Jebus, Bush just vetoed SCHIP. You know, to keep us from anything that even resembles a communist health plan. Bad, bad, bad.
GOOD!! Finally, if out infants die then our commute will FINALLY start to get better in a few years!!
less people = good
This is just what the terrorists wanted, we are going to have to spend more money on weapons. If we don't get more munitions and starting tapping the phones, this is just going to get worse. They hate our freedoms.
We need to solve this problem as soon as possible, before I start collecting social security, and we should continue to have lots of infants/workers until I die and no longer need my social security. After that date, you may continue to off the kiddies.
I hate babies.
if so many murkins weren't dumb as rocks their babies wouldn't die - christian scientists, high school dropouts, teenage moms, dirtball dads, tweakers, & crackheads are pumping the kids out while the college educated elite are waiting till they're 40 to have 1.
this is an education issue as much as access to health care.
Wonder how the anti-abortionists will react to this news? Seems their energy goes towards the wrong things ... how about SAVE THE LIVING?!
It's actually misleading. The US has a higher infant mortality than much of the Western world mainly because severely premature babies are not counted as infants in most developed countries other than the US ( doctors here save a good many of them, but when they can't save a 24 week preemie, it's counted as an infant death). Additionally, other disorders that cause many babies to die in utero in other nations are treated in the US successfully, but the failures here drive up the mortality rate.
Latvia sucks much worse than the US, Don't be fooled.
Why let a little thing like selectively interpreted/reported statistics ruin a good round of hysterical handwringing?
@ 13 Source please!
Here's the actual CDC report in question - still reading to see if what @13 says is true:
I agree with maxsolomon, but I'll add that other First World countries have significantly better public education and public services. Those tweakers and crackheads have better access to treatment programs and welfare. I'll also bet that child services are better funded -- the better to take babies away from incorrigible drug addicts.
UTTERLY disgraceful.
And some of these posters should have died as small children for what they contribute.
Education problems are directly linked to no national universal health care.
The rest of the world speaks scorn of the mighty America when these stats are made public. "Why do you settle for so little", they rightfully ask.
A lot has to do with how pregnancy and childbirth are treated in this country too. The lack of insurance coverage for midwifery, no emphasis on or support for proper nutrition in pregnancy, and horrifying rates of medical intervention in birth are all dangerous to mothers and infants.
Can you expound on this sentence? "Education problems are directly linked to no national universal health care."
How do you figure?
Infant death rate in MN is 4.8, in Mississippi is 9.6.

Advisors' Responsibilities
Consultation. The advisor should expect that he or she would be consulted regularly by the officers concerning their plans for group activities or programs. He or she should know what projects or events are being planned and should offer his/her ideas and suggestions freely but should be careful not to dominate program planning.
Providing Continuity. Providing continuity is a very important responsibility. The turnover of officers and members in a student organization is continual and often the only link with even the immediate past is the advisor. The advisor can orient new officers and members to this history and help them build on it.
Interpretation of Policy. As a representative of the university administration to the organization, the advisor is constantly in the position of interpreting the institution's policies and regulation pertaining to student organizations. He or she should, therefore, see that his/her group and its officers know what the policies are, why they exist, and the channels to be followed to obtain exceptions to or revisions of these policies.
Financial Supervision. While each organization should elect its own treasurer, the advisor will probably need to spend some time in supervising the financial records and the treasurer's work. He or she may find it necessary to teach the treasure the elements of simple bookkeeping and the intricacies of the organizations record system.
The advisor should be aware of the nature, extent, and the pattern of the group's expenditures and income and introduce corrective measures when necessary. Particular attention should be paid to the accounts receivable, the current balance, and the prompt payment of bills.
Organization Meetings. The advisor should attend regular and/or special meetings (as time permits) of the organization in order to keep him/herself informed. Also, the advisor should be available for consultation or to introduce ideas and suggestions.
Organizational Records. The advisor should see that at least the treasurer and secretary maintain adequate records and minutes of the group's activities and that the files and records of the organization are located in a central, easily accessible area.
Guidelines for Advisors
An advisor is a member of the St. Olaf faculty or staff. Every student organization must have an advisor to be recognized by the Student Organizations Committee of SGA.
Advisors are important to organizations in many ways. They should:
- Attend meetings of the organization
- Know the financial status of the organization
- Be familiar with the events and activities of the group and be certain they adhere to College guidelines
- Serve as a resource person/trainer for the group
- Teach leadership and team building techniques
- Provide continuity of tradition and history for the group
- Represent St. Olaf College to your best ability when dealing with, or on behalf of, the organization
- Make recommendations, when appropriate
- Attend advisor training and informational sessions (if applicable)

It's Jenas who is dead weight, Totally crap penalty.
My granny could have saved that penalty.
And what were they thinking letting chimbo take a penalty, they may just have well let Robbo take it.Sort: Newest | Oldest | Most Replied Expand all replies
not_blonde_really not_blonde_really Mar 13, 2008 07:18 Flag
Don't forget Jenas was carrying an injury for an hour of open play - he asked to come off around 60 mins (when Lennon came on), and didn't really do anything of consequence after that. He wasn't up to taking it, but as captain and an experienced attacking midfielder I think felt obliged.
Chimbonda took one because the only fully attacking player who hadn't was Lennon. Bit disappointed by that, the impression I got when they were working out the order etc was that he wanted to be talked into taking one, in the Jolly days that might have worked but Juande and Gus aren't gonna babysit him like that. You could equally say why did Zokora take one when he's never scored for us: because he had to (I had a feeling he'd break his duck tonight, I just wish it'd been under different circumstances).
I'm gutted for Chimbonda- he might make decisions about his career like a businessman and not a fan, but I like him, I think he's been toned down nicely (he doesn't try and get away with cheeky 'half cheating' anymore because he knows it doesn't go down well with Spurs fans), and that must be a horrible situation to be in.
I wasn't too disappointed at the end of the match - if you can get to the 7th penalty then I think it's fair to say there's nothing in it and it's down to luck - but the gutted feeling at the pit of my stomach's growing now. Nightmare. I think the problem we had with playing PSV is that we're pretty evenly matched, in much the same way as why watching Man U-Chelsea games is so boring - we cancelled each other out.
I really thought we'd have it this year, we deserved to beat Sevilla last year and they won it, so there was no question in my mind. Still, no complaints for the performance - there were even a couple of times when Bent almost impressed me!

[Guest Post by Julian]
Transpower continues to seek access to farm properties with the debate now moving to the South Island. Says Temuka farmer Jeremy Talbot, "There is to be no more access given to allow [...] work to be finished until we finally do get the settlement we've been seeking." Seems fair enough to me. Let him and Transpower negotiate in a civilised way as many people around this country do every day. I thought we had already dealt with this issue here at Not PC a few week ago.
Speaking on Morning Report this morning, he states his annoyance that some farmers are holding a gun to the head of government. "Holding a gun to the head of government is simply not going to work," he whines. Excuse me, Mr Brownlee, but that is not what these farmers are doing. They are exercising their property rights. It is their land, their property.
If Mr Brownlee objects to the holding of guns at people's heads, then I suggest that he show equal disdain for his own government, a government that routinely bullies New Zealand taxpayers and property owners, using the threat of a gun to the head as its means of persuasion.
