Cardamine hirsuta, a small crucifer closely related to the model organism Arabidopsis thaliana, offers high genetic tractability and has emerged as a powerful system for studying the genetic basis for diversification of plant form. Contrary to A. thaliana, which has simple leaves, C. hirsuta produces dissected leaves divided into individual units called leaflets. Leaflet formation requires activity of Class I KNOTTED1-like homeodomain (KNOX) proteins, which also promote function of the shoot apical meristem (SAM). In C. hirsuta, KNOX genes are expressed in the leaves whereas in A. thaliana their expression is confined to the SAM, and differences in expression arise through cis-regulatory divergence of KNOX regulation. KNOX activity in C. hirsuta leaves delays the transition from proliferative growth to differentiation thus facilitating the generation of lateral growth axes that give rise to leaflets. These axes reflect the sequential generation of cell division foci across the leaf proximodistal axis in response to auxin activity maxima, which are generated by the PINFORMED1 (PIN1) auxin efflux carriers in a process that resembles organogenesis at the SAM. Delimitation of C. hirsuta leaflets also requires the activity of CUP SHAPED COTYLEDON (CUC) genes, which direct formation of organ boundaries at the SAM. These observations show how species-specific deployment of fundamental shoot development networks may have sculpted simple versus dissected leaf forms. These studies also illustrate how extending developmental genetic studies to morphologically divergent relatives of model organisms can greatly help elucidate the mechanisms underlying the evolution of form.

MEXICO CITY (June 12, 2013)--Former President Felipe Calderon declared last year that Mexico is becoming a middle-class country, but the official statistics institute says otherwise.
A National Institute of Statistics and Geography analysis released Wednesday shows that nearly 60 percent of Mexico's estimated 112 million people still belonged to the lower classes in 2010.
The analysis says that the middle class grew by 4 percentage points, to almost 40 percent of the population, between 2000 and 2010 and just 1.7 percent were considered part of the upper class.
The institute didn't list precise criteria for defining middle class, but it says middle-class households generally have a computer, spend at least $340 every four months to eat out, have a credit card, at least one member with formal employment, and are headed by a high school graduate.

Since the early scientific researches of Claude Bernard,1 it has been known that the pancreas is concerned in some way with the utilization of fats in the body. When the fat-digesting properties of the pancreatic juice were duly appreciated, a possible explanation for the phenomenon of suggested interrelationship between the pancreas and fat absorption became available. Lack of pancreatic secretion thus might mean failure of fat digestion and consequent utilization. This is emphasized by the fact that when the pancreatic juice is experimentally diverted from the alimentary tract, fats used in the diet almost invariably appear in the stools, though the failure of utilization is by no means always complete.
Recently it has been suggested that, so far as the utilization of fat is concerned, the mere exclusion of the pancreatic secretion from the intestine is not precisely equivalent to the loss of the entire function of the pancreatic

Monte Carlo techniques for estimating various network reliability characteristics, including terminal connectivity, are developed by assuming that edges are subject to failures with arbitrary probabilities and nodes are absolutely reliable. The core of the approach is introducing network time-evolution processes and using certain graph-theoretic machinery, resulting in a considerable increase in accuracy for Monte Carlo estimates, especially for highly reliable networks. Simulation strategies and numerical results are presented and discussed

On the free sample child theme it works perfectly. But on the Landscape theme it doesn't work and gave the same results as the live site.
Can you let me know if there is a reason for this or offer any help please. I am not a hard core coder but do have some technical capabilities.

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.
Ralph Cosham is best known as the voice behind all of Louise Penny s bestselling Chief Inspector Gamache novels. He won the 2013 Audie Award for Louise Penny s "A Beautiful Mystery".

LOUISVILLE, Ky. (AP) -- Sophomore kicker Maikon Bonani hit a
37-yard field goal in overtime to give South Florida a 24-21 win
against Louisville Saturday as the Bulls become bowl eligible for
the sixth straight season.
Bonani's winning kick avenged a missed field goal that would
have won the game with time running out.
The win mopped up a lethargic game for South Florida (6-3, 3-2
Big East), which saw sophomore quarterback B.J. Daniels throw for
just 87 yards and a touchdown and sophomore Demetris Murray rush
for 106 yards.
Louisville reserve quarterback Justin Burke threw for 146 yards
and three touchdowns, while senior running back Bilal Powell added
140 yards on the ground -- his sixth triple-digit rushing game this
Louisville (5-5, 2-3) erased a 14-13 halftime lead after the
Bulls capitalized on two interceptions.

Michigan Schedules Home-And-Home With Washington For 2020, 2021
The last one went pretty well.
We now know one of the two "huge" non-conference opponents that Dave Brandon teased last week, as today Michigan announced a home-and-home series with Washington scheduled for the 2020 and 2021 seasons. From the athletic department release:
ANN ARBOR, Mich. -- The University of Michigan and University of Washington will renew an old rivalry when the two football programs meet for a home-and-home series during the 2020 and 2021 seasons. This will be the 13th and 14th meetings between the two schools.
The Wolverines will travel to Seattle, Wash., for the matchup on Sept. 5, 2020, at Husky Stadium. The return trip by the Huskies will take place at Michigan Stadium on Sept. 18, 2021.
"We are excited to rekindle a rivalry that has showcased some great games and great teams for both programs," said Brady Hoke, U-M's J. Ira and Nicki Harris Family Head Football Coach. "There have been some exciting, down-to-the-wire football games between Michigan and Washington and we anticipate the same type of contests when this series is played at the outset of the next decade."
This will be the fifth time that the two programs have played a home-and-home series.
Michigan holds a 7-5 edge in the series, winning the most recent contest in 2002 when Phil Brabbs connected on his famous game-winning field goal—a game also notable for Marlin Jackson setting the school record for pass breakups while defending Washington's All-American receiver, Reggie Williams.

higher prices mean home and homes against real teams are more attractive
Unverified Voracity Gets Misty
Bryan Fuller
On Csont'e York. It was inevitable that once the York video was released there were going to be a lot of strong reactions to it. I deleted a number of things that were over the line, and expected to.
I left up a bunch more that weren't quite delete-worthy but did make me feel uncomfortable. Most of those were uncomfortable because they weren't sad. Many called him a coward, others were almost gleeful in their eagerness to ship the guy out. Those threads don't reflect well on our community here.
While I think that York's second chance has to come somewhere else given the severity of what he did, I would appreciate it if everyone would keep in mind that even a kid who did a dumbass thing remains a person. There's an unfortunately paywalled profile of York from his time as a recruit up on ESPN. Chantel Jennings:
In August, he'll enroll at the University of Michigan and become the first person in his family to attend college. He has made it through the death of his mother, a number of family moves, and out of Detroit with a positive attitude. And through all of this, what he keeps closest to his heart is his family.
"My little brothers and sisters, I think about them," York said. "It has always been in my head that I have to do this for them. This isn't just for me. It's for my family. That's all I think of."
The reason York did what he did started with the people around him as he grew up and the primary emotion should be sadness that a kid couldn't keep it together. Once we're on to third chances I can see the disdain begin to creep in legitimately. Now, though, I just think of the times when I've been on the verge of a bad decision and struggled not to make it.
Kleenex at the ready. Austin Hatch and John Beilein profiled:
Three years ago, lying in a hospital bed in Traverse City fighting for his life, Austin Hatch's relationship with John Beilein went beyond a player-coach situation.
Nine days after pledging his verbal commitment to Michigan in June of 2011, Hatch was involved in a tragic plane crash that took the lives of both his father and stepmother and left him in a medically-induced coma.
At that point, no one was concerned about Hatch's basketball career. The main focus was saving his life.
And, unknown to Hatch at the time, one of those people standing at his bedside -- fighting along with him -- was Beilein.
Huge, they say. Michigan is apparently set to announce two home and home series:
Michigan football is set to announce two huge home and home opponents this week.
Terry Foster and Mike Stone met with Michigan Athletic Director Dave Brandon today and that's when Brandon dropped the news that this announcement will happen later this week.
FWIW, apparently there was a connected guy on the Rivals board saying the opponents were Stanford and Duke in a since-deleted post. No idea if that's accurate or not; obviously only one of those teams would even sort of qualify as "huge." And with Stanford there's always the possibility that they return to historical norms by the time the game rolls around. I kind of doubt that's accurate anyway—tough to see Stanford taking on Michigan when they've got a nine-game conference schedule plus their now-annual game against Notre Dame. But anyway, stay tuned.
By the way, that post has a poll asking who you'd like to see Michigan play that includes Nebraska and Wisconsin, which was momentarily absurd until it wasn't. Marshall, another option, remains so.
WELP? Prepare for the Colening.
Hoke just said on the radio we should "expect to see" Mason Cole this year, and called him a left tackle. It's happening, folks.

Everybody get up. But especially you. Aubrey Dawkins can get up, yo.

When Michigan took MAAR and then still went after Dawkins that was an indication they liked him more than his rating would imply, and In Beilein We Trust.
That shot came from an open practice Michigan held before their Italy trip during which Kam Chatman impressed:
Michigan's most highly touted freshman is multifaceted and college-ready. The general consensus among the scribes perched up on the observation deck was that Chatman will be a day-one starter, barring anything unforeseen.
The 6-foot-7 wing drilled smooth left-handed 3-pointers as a standstill shooter and off the dribble. He looked comfortable and capable making decisions with the ball. He finished in traffic.
Quinn's colleague Nick Baumgardner concurred:
First thing that struck me was Chatman. High-level shooter, can handle, finish, isn't skinny. He'll start right away.
Both Chatman and Dawkins spent time doing post drills as they prepare to play Novak/GRIII undersized 4. DJ Wilson is also going to be a 4 of the not-undersized variety but is still being held out with his pinky injury.
Unfortunately, Michigan won't be streaming any of the Italy games.
Brutal departure/injury spree. Unlike Nebraska's, this one actually matters for Michigan: Northwestern tailback Venric Mark will transfer; leading wide receiver Christian Jones is out for the year with a knee injury.
Mark, of course, tortured Michigan two years ago with his quickness. Jones is less of a loss since Northwestern tends to plug and play at WR but he was still their best guy in yards per target by some distance. Looks like it's Prater time? Naw, man, it's never Prater time. Until it is. But probably not. Because a Rutgers transfer is the guy Inside NU is promoting for the job.
A man familiar with the situation. Michigan doesn't get much mention in CBS Sportsline's group preview of the Big Ten except for incessant Jabrill Peppers talk in the "best newcomer" category, but the one guy who singled out Michigan as an underrated team is an interesting one: Auburn fan Jerry Hinnen, who's seen both Al Borges and Doug Nussmeier up close and personal. His take on M:
Most underrated team: Michigan. The Wolverines have to visit both Michigan State and Ohio State, keeping their odds of winning the East low, but they might still be the third-best team in the league. A healthy Jake Ryan and a loaded secondary should give Greg Mattison his best defense yet, and going from Al Borges to Doug Nussmeier might be the biggest offensive coaching upgrade in the FBS. If the offensive line has a pulse, 10 wins will be in play.
That is Michigan's great hope.
Looking pretty good down the road. More high praise for a hockey commit:
Griffin Luce is a tough as nails defender with an excellent stick and innate positional sense. Manage the puck,eats minutes. Michigan commit
— Sean Lafortune (@SeanLafortune) August 14, 2014
Unfortunately, that is an addendum to an article running down the top prospects the OHL's Kitchener Rangers have. Luce checks in third after being drafted in the fifth round despite his NTDP commitment. Details:
Steady, instinctive blueliner with great size and poise. Textbook hitter and defender backed by solid positional sense. … Thrives in the dirty pockets of the ice, using his size and strength advantages to win battles and gain possession. Excellent one on one defender, keeps an active stick, extremely efficient at getting sticks on pucks. Difficult to drive the net or gain an outside lane on, manages gaps efficiently and takes advantage of his massive wingspan. … Projects as a tough, physical, stay at home defender who can contribute at both ends of the ice. … Would be a top paring defender if he ever comes to the league.
Sounds like the kind of shutdown D Michigan hasn't had in a long time. I mean, Trouba, but Trouba was here and gone in a flash.
Kitchener does manage to snipe guys frequently, but in Luce's case Michigan should be okay. He's headed to NTDP and not currently projected to be a pick so high that he would get signed immediately and then reassigned. Also, his dad is the Panthers' director of scouting and played in the OHL himself—when they chose college it was an informed decision.
This is going to be a problem. The NCAA has just been hit with an injunction that says it cannot cap scholarship values below the federal government's full cost of attendance, so eventually those numbers are going to have to come up. The issue: those gaps vary widely between schools:
Michigan: $2,204
Ohio State: $3,346
Penn State: $4,000
Somehow it's more expensive to live in the middle of nowhere than an actual city or in Ann Arbor's notoriously expensive student housing market. Meanwhile, Tennessee has the biggest gap in the power five at 5,666.
It doesn't seem likely that Michigan's going to stand for a system where a kid going to Penn State gets 7k more over his four years, and there's no way in hell Georgia (1.8k) is going to go for a system where half the SEC is offering 10k+ more. So then what?
The power conferences have one way to normalize cost of attendance across all 65 schools: let every school go up to the highest cost of attendance figure, which in this case is Tennessee's $5,666.
But that has its own set of problems. First, many schools would then be permitted to exceed cost of attendance, some by thousands of dollars. Not only is that philosophically troubling for the NCAA, it also complicates matters with financial aid offices. If a portion of an athletic scholarship exceeds cost of attendance and is not paid through the financial aid office, what is but payment for services rendered?
The shakiest part of the O'Bannon decision is definitely the proposed remedy, which forces the NCAA into a choice they don't want to make.
Etc.: You can see the Lego Movie at Michigan Stadium if you're a season ticket holder. The Pac-12 wants you to know it schedules hard and should be rewarded for it. Gopher blog predicts 31-13 M win over Minnesota. Fresno State tries to keep up with the Joneses.
Unverified Voracity Might Be Real Maize
1994: when the universe was right-side up. Via Wolverine Historian:
This game featured a halftime interview with one Gerald Ford:
It's over. Everything is over. The FAKE 40 scale has been broken. They said that man could not claim a 40 time with more than five FAKES attached. They said a lot of things. Well, I present you with the first level eight (eight!) FAKE 40 time:
Attn opposing D Coordinators: Trevor Siemian announces to the assembled media that his official 40 time is 4.38. #B1GCats #SiemianFast
— Northwestern Sports (@NU_Sports) August 7, 2014
Unstoppable run-god Trevor Siemian? That does not sound right. Rodger Sherman figures that whether this is true or false this is the beginning of the end for Pat Fitzgerald. I agree. This has destabilized the entire structure of the sport.
IS IT MAIZE? This poster-type thing makes Michigan's uniforms look far less highlighter-y than they have in the recent past:
Delonte Hollowell front and center
All discussions about this inevitably center on the fact that you can make the same color look vastly different depending on lighting and various other photo doodadery, so let's just stipulate that. But maybe it'll look like a color instead of a fire truck this year.
I am intrigued by your newsletter. 2016 AL SG Josh Langford is arriving on campus today. It is possible there has not been enough chatter about this. Everyone's focused on Tyus Battle after Battle's camp appearance, but Langford is just as highly touted of a prospect, says highly positive things when asked about Michigan, and now 247's Jerry Meyer has put in a prediction for M on their Crystal Ball. He offers a brief explanation as to why:
Duke had been considered the leader in his recruitment but the Blue Devils have only showed minimal recruiting interest to this point.
Sources tell 247Sports that Michigan and Kansas are the two schools in the strongest position with Langford. … A physical guard at 200-pounds or more, Langford loves to attack the rim and also has a versatile and skilled game that would fit great into John Beilein's system of play.
Langford's quotes about Beilein are on the rapturous side, and apparently there's some substance to that.
Meanwhile, Michigan is asserted to be the leader($) for 2016 CA PF TJ Leaf by Scout analyst Evan Daniels. Asserted to be the "slight" leader. That is still an improvement over the perception that Indiana or UCLA was on top.
Leaf's Crystal Ball is a total mess, with five different schools listed—a recent Duke offer has caused a lot of picks for the Blue Devils to come in, there's a random CBS Sports writer projecting Florida, etc. Leaf just visited Arizona, as well. His recruitment could go any direction from here. Michigan probably needs another visit before Leaf's announcement in March or April to feel good. The current plan is for Leaf to take an official in February.
DRIII. Jeff Eisenberg has a rather lengthy article on the second-newest Wolverine, Duncan Robinson. How does a guy go from D-III to Michigan? Bad luck and hard work.
He stood only 5-foot-7 entering his freshman year at Governor's Academy in Byfield, Mass. He suffered an ill-timed back injury that hampered him during the all-important summer before his senior year at Exeter. And even after his growth spurt, he still needed to build the muscle necessary to absorb contact and finish at the rim. …
"His goal is to be an impact player," Tilton said. "He's not a kid looking to play a small role. He'll put the effort and energy in. I have not coached a kid with more passion for the game of basketball. He has a tremendous work ethic. He spends hours and hours on his craft. Basketball is his social life, and that's why he has been able to put himself in this position."
It'll be fascinating to see how this decision works out. Michigan passed on Nevada's Cole Huff when it looked for all the world like he would end up transferring in and seem ready to shut down 2015 recruiting entirely with Robinson in the fold. All Hail Infallible Beilein, of course, but 6'8" two-guards shooting 45% from three do not grow on trees.
Almost ready to shut down 2015 recruiting. 6'6" combo guard PJ Dozier just announced a top five and a plan to visit Michigan this fall, and if he has been shut out by the Robinson commitment he is not aware of this fact:
"Some people will say I like this school because they're this type of school and I've watched them forever. But P.J. is selecting a school that is the correct way in what is going to be the best program and the best fit for him so Michigan is definitely a strong, strong possibility."
Michigan does have a spot in the 2015 class, and if a guy on Dozier's level—#31 on the composite—wants to take it you probably let him even if it removes the possibility you get a similarly-ranked 2016 guy.
Well yeah. Listen to this man, he is a wizard.
"It's no longer about education," Snyder said. "We've sold out to the cameras over there, and TV has made its way, and I don't fault TV. I don't fault whoever broadcasts games. They have to make a living and that's what they do, but athletics -- that's it. It's sold out."
I am skeptical it was ever really about education but yes probably more so than now; "sold out" is correct.
I would be okay with this. Stunningly, a plurality of coaches in the Power 5 support doing away with cupcakes entirely:
Of the 65 Power Five coaches from the ACC, Big Ten, Big 12, Pac-12, SEC and Notre Dame, 46 percent (30 coaches) favored playing exclusively Power Five opponents while 35 percent (23 coaches) were opposed. About 18.5 percent (12 coaches) were undecided.
"About 18.5." Significant digits, man.
Anyway, they did away with the requirement that you have to win six games to go to a bowl, significantly greasing the skids towards a "yes" vote. Pac-12 coaches were the most gung-ho in favor, with only Rich Rodriguez opposed; the ACC was the only conference where more coaches were opposed to the idea than in favor; The Big Ten split down the middle. Hoke was not quoted but was listed as in favor.
Joe Dumars' last transaction. Brendan Quinn notes that the DRIII transfer saga was kicked off by none other than Joe Dumars's firing:
After the Pistons fired general manager Joe Dumars in mid-April, a six-week search for his replacement finally landed on Marist College head coach Jeff Bower.
Bower accepted the position, vaulting from a low-major college coach to an NBA GM.
That left Marist scrambling for a new coach as the summer churned toward key recruiting periods. The coaching search in Poughkeepsie, N.Y., ultimately landed on Mike Maker, a 48-year-old who had led tiny Williams College to a 147-32 record and two national championship game appearances in six years.
With Maker gone, Robinson started looking around. May this transaction be more in the 'Sheed department instead of the "everything after the Billups trade oh and also the Billups trade" department.
Etc.: Thanks, Landon. Autonomy passes. No one knows what that means yet. Impact figures to be minimal in basketball. Scrimmage details. You have to register, because you need to be bombarded by emails. The NFL is suddenly open.
USA Today previews Michigan. Scouting Caris. YOU WRE-E-E-CKED ME.

PELINI. Yes.

This is what is called a face turn. Pelini should start entering stadiums with his own corn-oriented theme music.
Reduced price. Michigan has cut the waiting list fee from 500 dollars to 150 for the 2015 season. That's the one with OSU and MSU games on it. I think we've officially hit the limit of what people will pay. Also, this… this is not a good thing to title your page about buying season tickets.
Watching football is not supposed to make you feel like you're going through twoadays and want to die.
Our lack of post depth and experience: slightly less exploitable. A couple of Big Ten big guys will not take on Doyle/Donnal and company, for reasons pedestrian and mysterious. The pedestrian one: VT transfer Trevor Thompson did not get a waiver at Ohio State and will redshirt. OSU does still get fifth-year Temple transfer Anthony Lee, so not a huge blow.
The mysterious and potentially more important: MSU stretch four Kenny Kaminski has been booted permanently. The crack MSU beat will no doubt have full details on the reason for his dismissal sometime after the sun turns the Earth into a smoking cinder bereft of life, so look out for that, Titan News Network.
Kaminski got only ten minutes a game last year, but he shot 50% on threes. This is Not Bad. Izzo kind of had a conniption fit about everything else about his game, because Izzo. Without any post types in the incoming class, MSU now will rely on Branden Dawson even more than they would have normally and lack the ability to insert a defense-stretching option for times when that would be good.
Now that I put it ion paper, this is less important from a Michigan perspective. Kaminski was a changeup option that a game against Michigan does not invite.
This is an interesting thing. I can't embed this at all, but here's a fascinating graph of the evolution of NFL players' height and weight over time. As you might expect, things get larger and heavier. The interesting bit is the split.
Increasing specialization has seen a class of OL/DL types that have totally separated from people who weigh 270 pounds. 280? 290? Do not apply.

Happy! Sad. Mitch McGary is doing stupid dunks on Vine.
There's another one where he flips it up to a teammate with his feet. #McGaryForUSMNT
Unfortunately, I am totally not over this. File me under sad bastard mooning at the record store in a Nick Hornby novel in re: reaction to any and all McGary things. Oh yeah I'm really happy for him it sounds like he's doing great oh I'm doing fine you know just buying these records and so sad that I feel like I'm dissolving every day no no man I'm fine.

Is there an It Gets Better for Mitch McGary withdrawal?
It's called the Big Ten for a reason. That reason is "we don't even know anymore." But we can have a reason again! Kirk Ferentz said that this could happen:
Kirk Ferentz said he could see the Big Ten going to 10 conference games. "If we're going to nine, I don't see why not," he said.
Money, probably. I am beginning to wonder about the relative value of a home and home versus two bodybag games; surely the increased interest from scheduling, say, Iowa, is now just about enough to offset the fact that you're playing a road game once TV factors in.
Rittenberg's take is cynical, but probably accurate:
How many Big Ten teams would get into the playoff with a 10-game league schedule if the higher-regarded SEC plays only eight conference contests? It's all about the playoff and it doesn't matter how you get there as long as you get there. That's how the Big Ten must approach scheduling.
I find it hard to believe that a committee is going to pick a team with an extra loss, even if it had a tougher schedule. And it's debatable whether the committee will even see it as a tougher schedule given the recent direction of the league.
If adding a tenth game induces Big Ten teams to strip out some of the very few comparison points we get before bowl season, all the committee will have to go on is reputation. That would be bad.
I am getting excited about hockey. The prospect of Copp/Compher/Larkin down the middle and the big hole on the blueline that Zach Werenski just filled combine to get me hype about what will go down at Yost this fall. Compher is tearing up the USA WJC camp going on right now:
Compher, who centered Team White's top line between Fasching and 2015 draft prospect Kyle Connor, was arguably his side's top player all the way through. He used his feet to take away time and space, and drew the ire of Team Blue with a hit in the corner right at the halftime horn. In the second half, the reigning B1G Freshman of the Year made a smart zone entry and executed a give-and-go with Will Butcher (COL) before finding Fasching at the doorstep for White's second marker. …
Compher was a key cog at both ends of the rink all game long, applying pressure without the puck while showing his playmaking eyes en route to picking up two assists on the day. He worked hard behind the net for his first assist, and kicked back to the point for a secondary helper on the third White goal. The University of Michigan standout rounded out his effort with some excellent work at the left point on the power play. He nearly added a goal to his weekend resume with a shot that just missed high over the crossbar in the final minutes.
Meanwhile, Motte and Larkin combined to score a late winner against Finland.
The soccer game happened. I did not go, if you're curious. 55 bucks was about 40 too many for a friendly between a couple of teams I don't really care about. 109,000 people disagreed with that, so you got a packed Michigan Stadium and the tangible and intangible benefits of that. The broadcast must have said the words "Big House" a dozen times every 15 minutes; also the department made some money.
Hopefully that'll become something of an annual event. The cachet of having the largest stadium in the country is a natural draw for teams that can fill it. Hopefully they can figure out the turf issues.
Unfortunately the size of the playing surface is short of regulations for a real game, as was extensively discussed when Michigan Stadium was on a list of potential hosting venues for the USA's failed World Cup bid. Any real game would have to be played on a platform that sat above the actual playing field and wiped out viewing angles for big chunks of the stadium. I don't think Michigan Stadium will ever get serious consideration for a USA game because of that.
Oh man, lawyers. I mean that in a good way this time. Andy Schwarz, who was a plaintiff's witness in the O'Bannon case, has been writing big lawyerly pieces for Deadspin about the case. His latest is more of an overview of the two sides struggling to "fix" the NCAA. One, dubbed "Team Reform," thinks that the whole problem with the system is that the universities aren't funneling the profits back into the academic side. The other, dubbed "Team Market" is just like dude this is a joke now just let them get what they can.
I bring it up because Schwarz has a couple of places in the piece that sum up a ton of things I've been thinking:
I personally question the undertones of complaints that athletes may blow their payments on bling and tattoos, when we applaud college students for spending money on ephemeral activities like traveling to Florence for a semester of wine and museums, but as a member of Team Market, I am willing to entertain the possibility that deferred payments will bridge the gap between paying suppliers and pleasing consumers and result in the most popular market-produced product. …"Fear of a Black Wallet" need not rule the country forever.
Fear of a Black Wallet! The paternalistic overtones of the arguments that start and end with "but then they'll have money" summed up in five words. They might waste their money, sure. It's being wasted now on compliance.
His sarcastic survey questions are also amazing:
This may also explain some of the surveys that we see from time to time, including even the one the NCAA presented in the recent O'Bannon litigation. The question wasn't framed as "Do you prefer watching undercompensated athletes play if it means you can rationalize your love of sports as somehow more noble than you secretly know it is?" or "Does your interest in college sports increase as more value is taken from the athletes and then ostensibly used to further more noble goals?"
I'm noticing this guy writes really long sentences now that I'm quoting him. Anyway, hardcore fans are an interesting exception to the survey trend wherein people say they'll like college sports less if it's less amateur. Guilty as charged.
Etc.: Been a lot of e-sporps about women lately. Jane comments on e-sporps about women. Michigan is favored by 35 against… them. I don't know if that makes me feel better or more terrified.
Michigan To Play Oklahoma In Rather A While
weird combo ND/Michigan tradition: check
Via official site:
Two of college football's most storied programs will meet for the first time in regular season history when the University of Michigan and the University of Oklahoma play a home-and-home series during the 2025 and 2026 seasons, announced jointly by the two institutions today (Monday, July 14).
Hooray. I'll probably be able to take a self-driving car to the away game, but hooray. That's the first game scheduled in the post-ND era that comes close to replacing Notre Dame in terms of appeal. Unfortunately, it arrives 11 years after this year's finale.

Starlight Xpress has built the new Trius SX-9 camera on a low noise objective without sacrificing a 2 million pixels per second download time due to its lower gain per ADU of 0.35 electrons. For smoother CCD sessions, there are 3x USB 2.0 ports (200mA) on the backside of the camera which allow a maximum of three peripheral devices such as autoguiders and filter wheels to be connected, effectively minimizing the amount of cords and wires when taking exposures or slewing the mount. There is also a +12v DC Jack Socket and an RJ11 Guider Port included as well. Starlight Xpress has also implemented other thermal and temperature stabilization features that keep the CCD sensor working to its best. The CCD chambers are Argon-Filled due to its low thermal conductivity, meaning the camera has a greater differential cooling delta. Moisture, condensation and dew can also be destructive when imaging, therefore Starlight Xpress has included a 7 layered fused silica window that helps prevent moisture damage and intrusion.
- Low noise CCD camera
- Fast 2 million pixels per second download time
- 3x USB 2.0 Hub included in camera for peripheral devices

address in northwest London.
Both women were held on suspicion of being involved in the
commission, preparation and instigation of acts of terrorism,
the statement said.
Both arrests were intelligence-led and not in response to any
immediate threat or risk, it added.
Detectives were searching two addresses in north and
northwest London under Terrorism Act.

Dave Sikora, CEO of m-commerce technology vendor Digby, will talk at the Internet Retailer Conference about how mobile shoppers wish to shop and how to wow them with mobile app features and functions.
To be successful in mobile commerce, retailers first must consider the specific ways consumers wish to use the mobile channel and then decide which methods to use when engaging customers through mobile devices, says Dave Sikora, CEO of m-commerce technology provider Digby.
Sikora will discuss different mobile scenarios and how to dazzle mobile shoppers at the Internet Retailer Conference & Exhibition, June 8-11 in Chicago, in a session entitled Mobile apps and the 'Wow Factor'.
"Do retailers want to sell more product? Do they want to help customers find stores and run promotional campaigns to drive in-store traffic? After driving customers to their stores, how about developing new, engaging in-store experiences?" Sikora asks. "It's critical to get agreement on these mobile use-cases and for retailers to build great experiences that consider the time sensitivity associated with the mobile customer."
Why the editors asked Dave Sikora to speak:
David Sikora was an early advocate of mobile commerce: He founded Digby in 2006, with a goal to accelerate the convergence of mobility and electronic commerce. He has worked with brand name retailers in developing, launching and maintaining their mobile presence.
Full details about the conference and registration information are available at IRCE2010.com.

Utah, BYU coaches respond to NCAA autonomy ruling
"In this program the players come first no matter what. We're fighting for everything we can, that we are legally allowed to give these guys," he explained. "It was a great thing when they changed the food rules, particularly allowing us to feed walk-ons. I thought that should have come to pass a long time ago. And now, with the cost-of-attendance formula going to be factored in, hopefully we'll get a little more money in their pockets."
Not everyone, though, is happy about the impending changes.
Utah Sen. Orrin Hatch released a statement on the matter.
"The NCAA should be responsible for promoting fair competition among its participating institutions and their student-athletes. I am concerned that today's action could create an uneven playing field that may prevent some institutions from being able to compete fairly with other schools that have superior resources to pay for student-athletes," he said. "I also worry about how this decision will affect a school's Title IX requirements and whether this consolidation of power will restrict competition and warrant antitrust scrutiny. As a member of the Senate Judiciary Committee, I'll be examining the NCAA's Redesign Model closely to determine if action must be taken to ensure that competition in college athletics among all colleges is preserved."
BYU coach Bronco Mendenhall also weighed in on the issue. It remains to be seen how BYU, as an independent, will be affected,
"I have mixed feelings. If the true intent is to benefit the student-athletes and their well-being within reason, I'm for part of those ideas. In the discussions that I've been part of, I wish I could say sincerely that is the motive," Mendenhall said. "But usually, it's who has the most money, who can provide more for the sake of themselves and their programs, not really the student-athlete, and it's moving much more toward professionalism than amateurism. I wish I could say this is all for the student-athlete, but that's not how I feel. So I have mixed feelings. It will be an interesting time period in college football and for student-athletes."
As for the impact on BYU, Mendenhall acknowledged that he's spoken about it with BYU athletic director Tom Holmoe.
"From early discussions (with) Tom, our intention will be to provide what myself and he believe are worth following and will pursue those things that have true and real value to our student-athletes and to BYU. His intent, as he's passed it to me, if you look at the world of chasing the Big 5, I think we'll chase what's appropriate and we'll provide everything possible that will benefit our student-athletes, not only on the field but off. But also within reason," Mendenhall said. "When you consider the 120-plus Division I football schools and the number that are in the black, based on which surveys you look at, it's anywhere from only 15 to under 25. Now they say they're going to provide more. It's interesting to see where that money's going to come from."
BYU athletics director Tom Holmoe said he wasn't suprised by the ruling.
"We have been following the proposed changes to the NCAA governance structure for months and anticipated it would pass the board of directors," Holmoe said in a released statement. "At this point it's hard to speculate about the ramifications to college athletics, but we'll continue to monitor the issues and prepare to make changes as necessary to remain competitive. In fact, we have plans to move ahead this fall with enhanced nutrition opportunities for our student-athletes, who have been and will continue to be our No. 1 priority within BYU athletics."
Utah State athletics director Scott Barnes and school president Stan Albrecht were both traveling and unavailable for comment, but Mountain West Conference Commissioner Craig Thompson did address the ruling in this released statement:
The Mountain West appreciates the efforts of the Division I Steering Committee and chair Nathan Hatch in developing a governance structure that meets the needs of Division I as a whole. Adoption of the new governance model will allow Mountain West institutions to determine how best to meet the needs of their student-athletes while continuing to provide opportunities to compete at the highest level of collegiate athletics. Student-athlete welfare and academic excellence have always been paramount in the Mountain West and will continue to be at the forefront of the discussion as we enter this new era of Division I. The Mountain West already has begun to involve student-athletes in its governance structure with the participation of two student-athletes at its spring 2014 Board of Directors meeting.
"This type of engagement will further enhance the overall experience of the student-athlete. The Mountain West membership has been actively engaged in conversations about the governance redesign for some time and we look forward to continuing the dialogue throughout the implementation phase of the new structure."

COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. (June 13, 2013)--A wildfire burning near Colorado Springs, Colo., has destroyed at least 360 homes, making it the most destructive in the state's history.
El Paso County sheriff Terry Maketa said Thursday that deputies still haven't been able to verify the condition of 79 other homes as the Black Forest fire continues to burn so it's possible the figure could rise even higher.
Authorities found two bodies Thursday in an area burned by the fire.
El Paso County Sheriff Terry Maketa said a resident who was reported missing Wednesday was found safe, but crews on found the remains of another person who also had been reported missing and about an hour later they found the remains of a second person.
Residents of 1,000 homes in Colorado Springs were ordered to evacuate Thursday in the first evacuation order in the city limits.
About 38,000 people were previously told to leave because of the fire that started in a populated, wooded area east of the city.
The city of 430,000, which is Colorado's second largest, was also asking residents of 2,000 more homes to be ready to evacuate because the fire has reached a designated trigger point.
The fire is burning near where the Waldo Canyon fire burned 347 homes last year.
It was previously the most destructive in Colorado history.
The Colorado Springs fire is one of three now burning in the state.
A blaze to the south has destroyed about 20 structures and forced the evacuation of about 250 residents as well as nearly 1,000 inmates from a nearby prison.
Another fire was burning to the north in Rocky Mountain National Park.

In Portugal We call this bird "Gaio"
I just found out its proper (in Canada) name - I couldn't remember when I uploaded the pic last night.
I saw some of these when I visited Lake Louise in 2003 and always wondered what they were. We have nothing similar in UK.
I thought the same. This particular one was quite tame, I suppose they are used to us humans taking photographs (and leaving scraps of food).
bird !我喜欢。
This type of bird is common in this area of the Rockies, and I've seen them around Lake Louise. Locally, they're known as "Whiskey Jacks!" They're all what you could call tame, and my grandpa has stories of one of them flying down and stealing an entire sandwich from his hand just as he was about to take a bite! I can remember several picnics in the mountains where a couple of these birds have joined us.
Los pájaros me chiflan!!! Muy buena foto !!!!
Gracias, Maria

Patients who undergo coronary artery bypass grafting surgery have a lower overall composite risk for myocardial infarction, stroke and death in the four years following the procedure compared with patients who undergo percutaneous catheter intervention procedures, according to a study.
The findings are from phase 2 of the American College of Cardiology Foundation/Society of Thoracic Surgeons Collaboration on the Comparative Effectiveness of Revascularization Strategies (ASCERT) study — the largest trial to date comparing CABG outcomes to outcomes from PCI, according to a news release.
Fred H. Edwards, MD, emeritus professor of surgery at the University of Florida, Jacksonville, and colleagues analyzed data from nearly 190,000 Medicare patients to compare long-term outcomes from CABG and PCI. In this study, 94% of PCI patients had stent placement and 6% had balloon angioplasty.
"ASCERT showed that in the first few months after the procedure, results favored PCI, but long-term data demonstrated a clear overall advantage for CABG," Edwards, also director of the Society of Thoracic Surgeons Research Center, said in a news release. "The benefits of CABG progressively increase over time, demonstrating the long-term durability of the procedure."
Phase 1 of ASCERT showed that patients who underwent CABG were 21% less likely to die four years after surgery than patients who had PCI. The follow-up study, which was scheduled for presentation Jan. 29 in Los Angeles at the Society of Thoracic Surgeons annual meeting, looked at the composite outcomes of MI, stroke and death
Collaborating investigators from STS and the ACC used CABG data from the STS National Database and PCI data from the ACC National Cardiovascular Data Registry for patients age 65 and older who underwent revascularization from 2004 through 2007. These data were then linked to information from the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services for follow up through 2008.
The researchers found that more than four years following the procedure, CABG patients had a lower risk of MI. PCI patients had a lower risk of stroke, primarily because of a higher stroke incidence in the first 30 days after CABG treatment. CABG patients had a 19% lower risk of suffering a composite outcome of stroke, MI and/or death.

The Healing Place awarded grants
Published: Saturday, July 4, 2009 at 4:30 a.m.
Last Modified: Saturday, July 4, 2009 at 1:03 a.m.
The Healing Place has been awarded two grants of $65,000 each one to provide services to victims of rape and sexual assault through Sexual Assault Services, and the other to fund the services provided by the Healing Place as an accredited Child Advocacy Center.
The funds were awarded by the Governors Crime Commission, a division of the N.C. Department of Crime Control and Public Safety. The Child Advocacy Center funds will be used to ensure that a full-time victim advocate is available to work with children and their families after an allegation of sexual abuse or felonious child abuse is made to the Department of Social Services.
The advocate works with the child and non-offending parent and siblings to ensure the family can successfully navigate the complex system that includes the Henderson County Sheriffs Office, Hendersonville Police Department, the District Attorneys office, mental health services, the Department of Social Services, medical providers and other community-based organizations.
The funds awarded for the provision of sexual assault services will be used to partially cover the salaries of two licensed professional counselors, who provide mental health services to more than 323 victims and their families each year.
Mental health treatment for adult victims and survivors, children and their non-offending caretakers is provided. The counselors at the Healing Place are trained in trauma focused-cognitive behavioral therapy and parent-child interaction therapy.
Currently, they are the only providers trained in these treatments in Henderson County.
All of our services are provided free of charge to anyone who needs them, said Diana Sierra, executive director of the Healing Place. Although these awards were less than requested in our original proposals, and less than what we need to continue to provide services to the residents of Henderson County, we are extremely grateful to have received them given the economic climate in the country.
Some of our funding sources from previous years have either reduced or eliminated their funding streams altogether, she added. It is getting more difficult each day to piecemeal a budget with reduced award amounts. However, we know how blessed we are to have received these awards this year and thank the Governors Crime Commission for continuing to recognize the excellence in the services we provide.
The grants come with a 20 percent match requirement to be obtained by private fundraising and donations from the community.
Sierra, on behalf of the staff and the clients of the Healing Place, thanked the donors that so loving, graciously and generously share their blessings with the Healing Place.
I have only been in Henderson County for three months, said Sierra. I have dedicated the past 17 years to working with nonprofits and have seen my share of excellent organizations in great communities.
However, I must say I have never encountered the warmth, unity, support and generosity of any community as I have here in Henderson County. I have been astonished by the donors that send us a check in the mail each and every year, week or month. I am even surprised by the generosity of residents when they visit our table for child ID kits and fingerprinting. I thank them all from the bottom of my heart for making our ability to accept and match the award from the GCC possible.
The mission of the Healing Place is to provide crisis intervention, support and counseling to victims of sexual assault and child abuse, and to increase awareness and prevention through community education.
The grants were awarded with funds coming from the Victims of Crime Act allocation to the state of North Carolina.
For more information on the Healing Place, contact Sierra at 828-692-0495 or firstname.lastname@example.com.

Re: Pacquiao > Chavez
Sticking with the H2H argument its my opinion that Chavez is all wrong for Manny. Its said that Chavez was a plodding swarmer but that absolutely not true, they're many cases where Chavez showed the versatility of being able to box off the back foot with a very good jab and firing his straight right hand on rhythm (see his fights with Lockridge and Rosario for proof). With that being said Chavez wouldn't necessarily have to get into a toe to toe war with Manny like many envision, he had the ability to pick him off from the outside and hit him with quick counters and then in an instant switch to his swarming style and climb the ladder while Manny was on the ropes. Manny almost always circles to his left and he alway's drops his left hand while doubling up on his slapping jab before jumping in with his straight left hand. This would leave him wide open for a counter right from Chavez who had the best straight right this side of Mayweather that I've seen in the last 30 years.
Manny's inability to fight nor defend himself on the inside would eventually be his undoing. I see Chavez picking him off with counter shots and maneauvering him to ropes and working Manny's exposed body and eventually wearing him down for stoppage. Chavez would obviously win every battle in the clinch and do serious work there, like Floyd he used his elbows to position to his opponents head in position for his counter shots a unforgotten old school trick. All in all I believe Chavez is too varied and just a styles mismatch and would stop Manny in 9 rds.
