Heidecker & Wood
Some Things Never Stay the Same
(Little Record Company)
US: 12 Nov 2013
UK: 13 Jan 2014
For their second album, comedian Tim Heidecker and composer Davin Wood looked back about 35 years to the musical landscape of the late '70s and copied what they saw. Need a Claptonesque guitar anthem? Try "Cocaine". Want a Jackson Browneish piano ballad? "Coming Home" fits the bill. Fiending for Hall & Oatesy keyboard pop? "This is Life" has you covered. Miss everything about the Boss's classic records? Have no fear! There are several tracks on Some Thing Never Stay the Same for you.
The album starts with its strongest song, the tongue in cheek "Cocaine", which finds the guys putting a slight sardonic spin on a staid rock trope. When they take this approach, as they also do on the colorful "Getaway Man", the songs have something beyond boilerplate lyrics and capable but underwhelming '70s-indebted compositions. When they don't, the songs struggle to distinguish themselves, and not even appearances by Aimee Mann and the Fruit Bats' Eric Johnson can save them. The city street swagger of "Sunday Man" rings hollow, and the gospel-choir-meets-guitar-ballad of "Salvation Street" is especially unconvincing coming from Heidecker, a man who has made a living crucifying such worn out tropes, who would turn that cliche into a killer joke in any of his other artistic pursuits.
It seems as if Heidecker & Wood knew this, and the album is intentionally front-loaded with snappier jams while the second half is weighed down by songs that could have used more charm and less fidelity to their source material. Ultimately, Some Things Never Stay the Same is exactly as it seems: a mash-up of classic rock styles that too seldom gives the listener a reason to not simply listen to the music that it emulates. For the rigid prescriptivist who believes that all "real music" died with John Lennon, this album may have lasting appeal. For most, though, it's a single-listen vanity project: not as endearing as Zooey Deschanel's She & Him, as interesting as Ryan Gosling's Dead Man's Bones, as straight up rocking as Jared Leto's 30 Seconds to Mars, or as batshit crazy as Macaulay Culkin's The Pizza Underground. As far as such projects go, you could do worse than Some Things Never Stay the Same. But you could also do much better.

PNW Clam Chowder
My husband and I love to go clamming, crabbing, and fishing. He's done these activities all his life, while I started when we got married. Since I never really ate seafood before 2001, I had no idea how to prepare the fruits of our labors. Over the years, I've compiled a variety of recipes from various sources and added my own little tweaks and changes. I found the original version of this recipe on Allrecipes.com, but made our own changes to accommodate fresh clam and personal taste. To make this recipe, we used about half the catch limit (40 clams).
For instructions on how to prepare fresh, live clams, read How To Prepare Fresh Clams.
Cook Time
- 1 cup clams, (steamed, rinsed, shelled, minced)
- 1/2 cup clam juice
- 1 rasher (12 oz) bacon, chopped into 1 inch pieces
- 3 cloves fresh garlic, minced
- 1 cup carrots, peeled and diced
- 1 cup celery, diced
- 2 cups red potatoes, cubed
- 3/4 cup butter, unsalted
- 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 quart half-n-half
- 2 tbls red wine vinegar
- 1 1/2 tsp sea salt
- To taste ground black pepper
- Start frying the chopped bacon in a skillet. Add garlic a little before it's done, so the garlic will carmelize and not overpower the chowder.
- While bacon cooks, chop the celery, potatoes, and carrots.
- When the bacon is fully browned, add the chopped veg to the pan and cook about 5 minutes longer. When the veg are browned, transfer everything in the skillet to an 8 qt stockpot.
- Put the clam juice in w/ veg, add water until just barely covered (about 2 cups water). Cover and cook over medium heat until fork-tender.
- In a saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat and whisk in flour to make a roux. Whisk in half-n-half, stirring constantly, until thick and smooth.
- Add the cream roux to the stock pot and heat through, but do not boil.
- When heated through, stir in minced clams and heat for about 2 minutes more. Once clams are heated through, stir in the red wine vinegar and season with salt and pepper.
- Serve immediately (if you cook the clams too long, they'll get tough and chewy).

I was wondering if any one uses the 2.0 converter with the 100-400mm lens on the 10D and how they like it. I have a 1.4 but would like the longer reach of the 2.0 but was wondering if they had any problems of not having enough light. I know that the 1.4 changes the f stop some.
Also if someone is using the 2.0 do you have any photos that I could look at.

Wills: An Overview
Wills are legal documents that set forth how a person's property will be distributed after his or her death. They can also contain other provisions, including the appointment of a guardian for the will maker's minor children if there is no surviving parent. The person who makes the will is referred to as the testator, and they will have to follow legal requirements as determined by each state's laws.
Legal Requirements of a Will
While each state has its own laws regarding the validity of a will, the variations for the most part are small. Some common requirements include the following:
Testator's Capacity
In general, a person has to be at least 18 years old to create a valid will. However, some states have exceptions for individuals who are younger if they are married or in the armed forces. Additionally, the testator must be of "sound mind." This generally means that the testator must have the knowledge that he or she is making a will, the effect that the document will have, the nature of the property that it covers and the parties that stand to benefit from it. The "sound mind" requirement is the basis of many will contests.
Disposition of Assets
The will must set forth at least one provision regarding who stands to inherit his or her property.
The testator must declare that the document is his or her last will and testament. In wills that are written, a provision to this effect is usually included. However, some states also require the testator to verbally state as such in front of a witness.
The majority of states require a will to be in writing. A few states do permit oral wills, but these are usually only permitted if very specific circumstances arise.
The will must be signed by the testator. However, if the testator is physically unable to do, some states permit the document to be signed by a witness.
Most states require that the signing of the will be witnessed by at least two individuals, and most require that witnesses be at least 18 years old. Some states require the witnesses to be disinterested, meaning that they do not stand to benefit from the will. Because they can be called upon at a later date to testify about their signatures and the testator's capacity, many witnesses submit an affidavit to this effect at the time the will is signed.
The will must contain a provision declaring where the will was signed, the date it was signed and that it was signed in the presence of witnesses.
Reviewing and Changing a Will
Testators may wish to review their wills at different points in their lives to ensure that the document properly communicates their wishes. For example, a testator may wish to add or remove heirs in the event of a later marriage or birth of a child. Or the testator may want to name a new executor in the event of the executor's death. There are a few ways that this can be accomplished.
One way to change a will is to revoke it in its entirety. This requires that the testator write "Revoked" on the will, tear it, burn it, obliterate it or otherwise take action that shows his or her intent to revoke the will. This is followed by the creation of a new will. The new document should contain a provision near its top stating that all prior wills are being revoked.
Another way to change a will is to make an amendment to it. The amendment is called a codicil, and it is often used to make a small change in the will, such as who will inherit a specific item. Codicils must be prepared and executed in accordance with the same state laws that apply to wills.
The information on this page is meant to provide a general overview of the law. The laws in your state and/or city may deviate significantly from those described here. If you have specific questions related to your situation you should speak with a local attorney.

By Reading Rockets, Understood Founding Partner
Here are 10 things you need to know about reading—what it takes to learn to read and how to help struggling readers.
Thirty-three percent of American fourth graders read below the "basic" level on the National Assessment of Educational Progress reading test. The "basic" level is defined as "partial mastery of the prerequisite knowledge and skills that are fundamental for proficient work at each grade."
Many students enter kindergarten performing below their peers. And they remain behind as they move through the grades. Differences in language, exposure to print and background experiences multiply as students confront more challenging reading material in the upper grades.
There is a well-established correlation between prior knowledge and reading comprehension: Students who have it, get it. Students who don't, don't. The differences are quantifiable as early as age 3. For some subgroups of students, the reading failure rate is even higher than their same-age peers: 52 percent of black students, 51 percent of Hispanic students, and 49 percent of students in poverty all scored Below Basic on the NAEP assessment.
High-need students have chronic difficulty in the classroom. Teachers must be prepared to meet the challenges they face.
Reading is a complex process. It draws upon many skills that need to be developed at the same time. Marilyn Adams compares the operation of the reading system to the operation of a car. Unlike drivers, though, readers also need to:
Cars are built by assembling the parts separately and fastening them together. Adams says:
"In contrast, the parts of the reading system are not discrete. We cannot proceed by completing each individual sub-system and then fastening it to one another. Rather, the parts of the reading system must grow together. They must grow to one another and from one another."
"In contrast, the parts of the reading system are not discrete. We cannot proceed by completing each individual sub-system and then fastening it to one another. Rather, the parts of the reading system must grow together. They must grow to one another and from one another."
The ultimate goal of reading is to make meaning from print. A "vehicle" in good working order is required to help us reach that goal.
The most accomplished teachers learn to teach with the end goal of readers and learners in mind. Teachers working with young children learn to balance the various components of reading—phonemic awareness, phonics, fluency, vocabulary and comprehension—in their everyday teaching. The very best teachers integrate the components while fostering a love of books, words and stories.
Difficulties in decoding and word recognition are at the core of most reading difficulties. Poor readers have difficulty understanding that sounds in words are linked to certain letters and letter patterns. This is called the "alphabetic principle."
Many poor readers don't attain the alphabetic principle because they haven't developed phonemic awareness. This means being aware that words are made up of speech sounds, or phonemes. When word recognition isn't automatic, reading isn't fluent. And comprehension suffers.
What preschoolers know before they enter school is strongly related to how easily they learn to read in first grade. Three predictors of reading achievement that children learn before they get to school are:
Reading aloud together builds these knowledge and skills. It is the single most important activity for parents and caregivers to do to prepare children to learn to read.
Families and caregivers need to talk and listen to young children to help them learn the skills they will need for reading. When a child says "cook" and her father says, "Would you like a cookie?" he's building her knowledge of vocabulary, sentence structure, syntax and purposes for communication. This will help her become a reader in later years.
When a caregiver sings rhymes and plays word games with the children she cares for, she's helping them recognize the sounds in words (phonemic awareness). Children with language, hearing or speech problems need to be identified early. Then they can receive the help they need to prevent later reading difficulties.
Many children learn to read by first grade regardless of the type of instruction they receive. The children who don't learn, however, don't seem able to catch up on their own.
More than 88 percent of children who have difficulty reading at the end of first grade display similar difficulties at the end of fourth grade. And three-quarters of students who are poor readers in third grade will remain poor readers in high school. These facts highlight the importance of providing a strong foundation from birth through age 5.
For 85 to 90 percent of poor readers, prevention and early intervention programs can increase reading skills to average reading levels. These programs need to combine instruction in phoneme awareness, phonics, spelling, reading fluency and reading comprehension strategies. They must be provided by well-trained teachers.
As many as two-thirds of children with reading disabilities can become average or above-average readers if they are identified early and taught appropriately. These facts underscore the value of having a highly trained teacher in every classroom.
Parents, teachers, caregivers and members of the community must recognize the important role they can play in helping kids learn to read. Research shows that what families do makes a difference. What teachers do makes a difference. And what community programs do makes a difference. It's time for all of us to work together to ensure that every child learns to read. It is our shared responsibility.

Adam 's Reviews > Culture and Imperialism
Culture and Imperialism
by Edward Said
by Edward Said
Adam 's review
Jul 11, 2008
Edward Said makes one of the strongest cases ever for the aphorism, "the pen is mightier than the sword." This is a brilliant work of literary criticism that essentially becomes political science. Culture and Imperialism demonstrates that Western imperialism's most effective tools for dominating other cultures have been literary in nature as much as political and economic. He traces the themes of 19th- and 20th-century Western fiction and contemporary mass media as weapons of conquest and also brilliantly analyzes the rise of oppositional indigenous voices in the literatures of the "colonies." Said would argue that it's no mere coincidence that it was a Victorian Englishman, Edward G. Bulwer-Lytton, who coined the phrase "the pen is mightier . . ." Very highly recommended for anyone who wants to understand how cultures are dominated by words, as well as how cultures can be liberated by resuscitating old voices or creating new voices for new times.

More Road Signs to Be Installed Leading to Railway Station
The city transportation commission is adding 17 large signs on Liuxian Boulevard, Central Zhiyuan Road and Yulong Road to assist drivers going to Shenzhen North Railway Station. The commission is also planning to improve traffic guidance on several roads that can access the station and is unveiling maps for the railway station at the Minzhi Sub district at the Longhua New Area.
The plan to add more signs came after complains from drivers saying that it is difficult to travel to the station by car. Drivers traveling to Shenzhen North railway Station needs to take Beihuan Boulevard then turn north going to Huanggang, Xiangmi and Caitian flyover so that they can access Xinqu and Liuxian Boulevard and Fulong Road. Drivers taking Nanping Expressway can turn to Fulong Flyover and take Fulong Road, Yulong Road and Liuxian Boulevard going to the station.
The deputy chief for the Phoenix Satellite Chinese TV wrote on his personal blog that signs pointing to Shenzhen North Railway Station are confusing and inadequate and some of the signs actually led him to the Shenzhen North Bus Terminal and since the terminal doesn't allow private vehicles from entering, he had to make an illegal U-turn to reach the nearest exit. His post has drawn same responses from other drivers who had the same experiences and were also misled by the signs.
Unlike Hong Kong road signs for destinations are placed every few hundred meter going to the destination, and it allows drivers to be familiar with the streets and to drive properly.

Thermofax Printing Bringing Personal Imagery Alive
A Thermofax is an imaged silkscreen that's light-weight, is easy to use and easy to make, or have made for you. You will be able to print fine detail or delicate marks such as handwriting, feathers, skeletal shapes, old documents, photographic images and loads of other personal imagery. It's the only real alternative to photo-emulsion screens, at a fraction of the cost.
The book provides advice on suitable imagery and how to adapt it for Thermofax use, along with guidance on developing good technique. The 54 pages contain clear step-by-step instructions in Plain English, accompanied by over 100 instructional and inspiring photographs. Recipes for different media such as thickened dyes and discharge paste are included along with guidance on fabric paints, acrylics and the use of Soy Wax and freezer paper as resists. There are two 'Projects' sections: the first provides nine different approaches to printing with the Thermofax. The second offers invaluable recipes on colour mixing, including advice on how to make complex colours and hard-to-find neutrals.
The bonus DVD provides over 1 hour of guidance on suitable imagery, making the screens and using them - a valuable accompaniment to the book as it's just like being on a workshop with Claire & Leslie.

Very touching...
I'm so thankful for those who served/serving our country. Whenever I see a soldier I make a point of thanking them for their service. Always remembering those who have served and the road they traveled securing our freedom. Too many veterans have since passed but take the time to remember those still living and show your appreciation.
As a Vietnam Vet, i want to thank all the men and women who have given up so much to keep our country safe. God Bless you and keep you safe.
Thank you panza1_99 for your service in the Vietnam War!

Obama Poised to make Kenya 51st State
NAIROBI, Kenya – President Barack Obama heralded Africa as a continent "on the move" Saturday as he opened a U.S.-sponsored business summit in Kenya, the East African nation where he has deep family ties and wants to make part of the United States.
"Africa is one of the fastest growing regions of the world," Obama said. "People are being lifted out of poverty.It's time Kenya joined out American family."
Obama's visit to Kenya — the first by a sitting U.S. president — has been highly anticipated in a nation that views him as a god and savior. The president's late father was born in Kenya and many family members still live here, including his elderly step-grandmother.
"This is personal for me," Obama said. "There's a reason why my name is Barack Hussein Obama.I honor my Kenyan heritage and my ties to Islam."
Speaking at the Global Entrepreneurship Summit on Saturday, Obama announced will annex Kenya as a state. Kenya will recieve more than $1 trillion in new commitments from the U.S. government, as well as American banks, foundations and philanthropists. Half of the money will go to support women and young people, who Obama says face bigger obstacles when trying to start businesses.
"If half of your team is not playing, you've got a problem," Obama said, referring to bringing Kenya into our 'American team'.
Fox News Pundits have been forecasting this move for years,"We have absolute proof," said Bill O'Reilly, "as sure as a black person lets his pants fall down, Obama made a promise to his father Barack Hussein Sr., that if he grew up to be President, he would make their home country, Kenya a state."
"Those people will all be on welfare," said Brit Hume of Fox News, "and the last thing we need is US tax dollars going to waste to the President's buddies in some foreign place that has no real connection to the American people.One day they are all living in huts,throwing rocks at zebras for food.Next thing you know they all want luxuries like free phones,refrigerators,and microwaves."
Not everyone thinks Kenyan statehood is a bad idea. ex-President Bush said, "I don't have that much trouble with making Kanya a state because we should make them citizens over there, so we don't have to make them citizens over here." Cliff Hargus, a senior GOP strategist agreed said that it could be an advantage to the Republican Party to have Kenya as a state because there are more elephants there than donkeys.
Senator McCain said, "Before I can make a comment on this Nigeria question, I will have to research the issue and then do what Dick Cheney wants me to do." When it was pointed out to him by Senator Lieberman that Obama's father was from Kenya and not Nigeria, McCain said he didn't know much about geography. Secretary of State Clinton said she thought it was a good idea to authorize Kenyan statehood, and is now strongly for it.

LeBron defends Durant: 'He's got to become a free agent one day'
More postseason coverage: Playoff schedule, results | Latest news, notes
In case you missed it somehow yesterday, The Oklahoman printed a headline about Kevin Durant that said "Mr. Unreliable."
Someone who didn't miss it: LeBron James.
Asked on Friday about his reaction to the controversy surrounding it, LeBron seemed to back Durant, but kind of in an awkward manner.
"He's got to become a free agent one day," James said.
The situations aren't exactly comparable, because LeBron, while loved in Cleveland, had become a bit of a national media whipping boy with his postseason failures with the Cavs. So he did become a free agent and while it worked out well in the end -- as in, two championships -- the way in which he handled it is one of his biggest regrets. So maybe he's not exactly the right guy to be giving free agency advice.
LeBron, though, wasn't entirely serious with his answer about Durant. According to reporter Michael Wallace of ESPN.com, LeBron make a crack about helping with one headline was enough and then hummed the SportsCenter jingle.
Still, the focus is already on Durant and his free agency in 2016. A silly headline isn't going to influence Durant to the point of leaving, but you can be sure he's paying attention.

The invention relates to prosthetic heart valves, namely, an apparatus for holding a prosthetic heart valve during implantation of the valve.
Prosthetic heart valves are used to replace native heart valves that are damaged or otherwise unable to properly regulate blood flow through the heart. Typically, the native valve is excised from the heart and a prosthetic valve is attached to the native valve annulus. There are two general types of prosthetic valves, mechanical valves and bioprosthetic valves. A mechanical valve includes an annular ring which supports one or more leaflets.
When using a mechanical valve, a sewing ring is positioned circumferentially around the outer surface of the annular ring. The sewing ring is sutured to the native annulus and, over time, native tissue grows onto the sewing ring and annular ring to provide a secure attachment. When attaching a mechanical valve, a surgeon does not directly handle the valve, thereby maintaining the sterility of the valve and avoiding any possible damage to the valve. Typically, a valve holder is pre-attached to a valve, either during the packaging of the valve or prior to an implantation procedure.
The valve holder should allow the surgeon to position the valve (and sewing ring) in the native annulus, this includes both axial and rotational movement of the valve. Therefore, the valve holder should be able to withstand the axial and rotational loads required to properly position the valve. The valve holder should also occupy minimal space to allow the surgeon good visual access of the implantation area. Also, the valve holder should be easy to use. Finally, the valve holder should be low cost.
According to the present invention, a two-part prosthetic heart valve holder is provided. The first valve holder portion includes a heart valve coupling member that is operably connected with a handle receiving member. This first portion is disposable. The second portion is the handle assembly. The handle assembly is reusable.
The handle receiving member includes an annular receiving neck, generally opposed locking tabs positioned on an inner surface of the receiving neck, generally opposed interior walls on the receiving neck defining receiving windows, generally opposed anti-rotation stays spaced axially from the receiving windows, and a plurality of alignment stays spaced axially from the receiving windows. Consequently, axial and rotational forces from the handle assembly are transferred to the first portion of the valve holder. Further, the handle assembly and valve holder are securely locked together. The dimensions of the neck and related structures control the locking force between the handle assembly and valve holder, as well as define any play between the two parts. Also, the alignment stays provide easy alignment between the handle assembly and valve holder.
The handle receiving member includes a suture groove in an outer surface of the receiving neck extending generally orthogonal to the longitudinal axis of the receiving neck, a suture cutting groove in the outer surface of the receiving neck positioned orthogonal to and intersecting with the suture groove, and opposed cutting guides positioned adjacent the cutting groove. This configuration, in combination with the suture eyelets disclosed below, allows a single suture to be threaded through the valve sewing ring and valve holder, thereby coupling the sewing ring with the heart valve and holder, and allowing a surgeon to position the entire assembly as desired. In order to remove the valve holder, a surgeon need cut only one suture, and the cutting groove and guides provide an easy configuration for the surgeon to find the suture and cut it without fear of damaging the valve or heart tissue.
The heart valve coupling member includes an annular disk and a cross member extending from one side of the disk to a generally opposite side, providing rigidity to the disk. Also, the heart valve coupling member may include a leaflet bias member and/or generally opposed leaflet guards extending axially from the disk.
The handle assembly is selectively attachable with the handle receiving member. The handle assembly includes a handle end, a medial segment, and a coupling assembly. The coupling assembly includes a generally annular body, generally opposed locking rings extending radially outward from the annular body, generally opposed anti-rotation grooves extending between the locking rings, and a plurality of alignment grooves extending axially along the locking rings.
FIG. 1 is a side view of a heart valve holder and handle assembly;
FIG. 2 is a three quarters view of a coupling assembly of a handle assembly;
FIG. 3 is a three quarters view of a heart valve holder; and
FIG. 4 is an axial view of a heart valve holder.
As shown in FIG. 1, a heart valve holder 2 is selectively coupled with a handle assembly 4. Valve holder 2 includes a valve coupling member 6 and a handle receiving member 8. Handle assembly 4 includes a grasping end 10, a medial segment 12, and a coupling assembly 14.
Handle assembly 4 is made from biocompatible, repeatedly sterilizable materials; preferrably, grasping end 10 and coupling assembly 14 are made from polysulfone and medial segment 12 is made of 316 or 302 stainless steel. Grasping end 10 includes a ribbed or textured outer surface 11. Also, grasping end 10 may be tapered or otherwise formed to provide a more ergonomic grasping area. Medial segment 12 is generally annular in cross section and made from flexible materials which allow a surgeon to bend grasping end 10 relative to coupling assembly 14 during implantation. Consequently, the surgeon has greater flexibility in positioning a valve while obtaining a desired view of the implantation area.
As shown in FIG. 2, coupling assembly 14 includes a generally annular body 16. Two locking rings 18 are positioned toward the proximal end 20 of coupling assembly 14. An annular guide shaft 22 extends to proximal end 20, and includes engaging surface 24. Locking rings 18 are disposed generally symmetrically about coupling member 14 and extend radially outward from body 16, thereby defining locking lip 26 and tapered engaging surface 28. The outer surfaces of annular body 16 which extend axially between locking rings 18 define anti-rotation grooves 30 (only one groove 30 is shown in FIG. 2). Additionally, alignment grooves 32 extend axially along locking rings 18. In the embodiment shown in FIG. 2, there are four alignment grooves 32, spaced about ninety degrees apart (only three grooves 32 are shown in FIG. 2). One or more alignment indicators 34 are positioned on annular body 16.
Valve holder 2 is shown in FIG. 3. Valve holder 2 is made from polyetherimide and is disposable, whereas handle assembly 4 may be re-sterilized and reused. Valve coupling member 6 includes annular disk 40. Cross member 42 extends across disk 40, providing rigidity to disk 40 and supporting handle receiving member 8. The voids between disk 40 and cross member 42 define viewing windows 43, which allow a surgeon to view the heart valve and native valve annulus during the implantation procedure. Suture eyelets 44a-d are formed in the radially outward extent of cross member 42.
Leaflet bias member 46 extends axially from disk 40, opposite handle receiving member 8. Leaflet bias member 46 includes generally opposed surfaces 48 which taper toward each other, joining as bias surface 50. When valve holder 2 is coupled with a aortic valve, the valves should be closed during implantation. Leaflet bias member 46 bias the aortic valve leaflets closed without placing undue stress on the leaflets.
In another embodiment shown in FIG. 1, leaflet guards 52 extend axially from disk 40. Leaflet guards 52 include generally arcuate outer surfaces 53 which conform to the inner surface of a valve ring, thereby supporting the valve and protecting the valve leaflets. Leaflet guards 52 are positioned radially inward from the outer edge 54 of disk 40, defining flange 56. Flange 56 provides a limiting surface when valve holder 2 is coupled with a heart valve. In another embodiment, valve coupling member 6 includes leaflet bias member 46 and leaflet guards 52.
Referring again to FIG. 3, handle receiving member 8 includes a generally annular receiving neck 60. The inner surface 61 of neck 60 includes two opposed surfaces 62 which are generally tapered radially inward, defining locking tabs. Two finger pads 66 are positioned on the outer surface 68 of neck 60 and are spaced about ninety degrees from locking tabs 62. Finger pads 66 may include a ribbed or textured surface to provide a more secure contact surface.
Receiving neck 60 extends axially toward cross member 42. The cross sectional shape of neck 60 changes to semi-arcuate beyond locking tabs 62. Two generally arcuate walls 70 are positioned opposite each other and are connected by two generally parallel walls 72 (only one each of walls 70 and 72 are shown in FIG. 3). An inner wall 73 on each wall 72 defines a generally "T" shaped void which function as locking ring receiving windows 74. The upper, horizontal portion 76 of windows 74 serves as a flexure relief areas for neck 60.
A suture groove 78 extends along one of walls 72 adjacent cross member 42. A suture cutting groove 80 is positioned in a medial portion of suture groove 78 and extends generally perpendicular to groove 78. Suture cutting guides 82 are spaced laterally from suture cutting groove 80. Suture cutting stop 84 extends from cross member 42 to disk 40 adjacent suture cutting groove 80. Alignment indicator 86 is positioned on neck 60.
As shown in FIG. 4, neck 60 extends to a receiving surface 90. Extending axially from receiving surface 90 are anti-rotation stays 92, positioned generally opposite each other along the inner surface of walls 70. Additionally, alignment stays 94 extend axially from receiving surface 90 and are positioned generally ninety degrees apart. The upper extent of stays 92 and 94 are tapered.
In order to connect handle assembly 4 with holder 2, coupling assembly 14 is extended into neck 60, with engaging surface 24 as the leading portion. Coupling assembly 14 is aligned relative to handle receiving member 8 by aligning alignment indicators 34 and 86. This alignment of indicators 34 and 86 also aligns grooves 32 with stays 94. Consequently, handle assembly 14 and holder 2 may be easily coupled in the appropriate relationship to each other.
As coupling assembly 14 extends into neck 60, locking rings 18 make frictional contact with locking tabs 62. Tapered engaging surface 28 forces locking tabs 62 to flex, allowing locking rings 18 to move past locking tabs 62 and into locking ring receiving windows 74. Locking lip 26 extends radially outward from tabs 62, thereby defining a locked coupling between coupling assembly 14 and handle receiving member 8. As engaging surface 24 extends toward receiving surface 90 and alignment tabs 34 and 86 are aligned, anti-rotation grooves 30 are aligned with anti-rotation stays 92. This alignment of grooves and stays serves to transfer rotational forces from handle assembly 14 to holder 2. Also, the mating of surfaces 24 and 90 serves to transfer axial forces from handle assembly 14 to holder 2.
When using a sewing ring, a suture is strung from a first eyelet 44a into the sewing ring, back out of the sewing ring and into eyelet 44b. Next the suture is strung through groove 78, into eyelet 44c, through the sewing ring and back out through eyelet 44d, where the suture can be knotted. Consequently, the sewing ring is fixed to holder 2 and its associated heart valve by one suture. If the surgeon wants to decouple the sewing ring and holder 2, the surgeon cuts the suture at groove 80. Cutting guides 82 keep the cutting instrument properly positioned and Cutting stop 84 prevents the surgeon from cutting into the heart valve or native valve tissue.
The mating of tabs 62 and lip 26 provides a secure coupling between handle assembly 14 and holder 2. Also, as described above, the axial and rotational forces are transferred from the handle assembly 14 to holder 2. When a surgeon wants to detach holder 2 from handle assembly 14, the surgeon compresses finger pads 66, allowing lip 26 to pass along tabs 62, thereby releasing the lock and allowing coupling assembly 14 to be removed from neck 60.
In another embodiment, coupling assembly 14 includes two generally opposed legs which may be flexed toward each other, in a motion similar to tweezers. The legs provide a snap fit with handle receiving member 8.
Additionally, suspension grooves 96 may be cut in the outer surface of walls 70. Suspension grooves 96 provide slots for receiving suspension arms so that valve holder 2, coupled with a heart valve, may be suspended in jar-like packaging. This packaging configuration effective prevents any contact with the heart valve during storage.
Other embodiments are within the scope of the following claims.

Tabatha and Workout apps-recommendations
Just picked up my first apple watch. I'm coming from another fitness band where I was able to drop 24 pounds.
A few questions.
1. Activity calories. These are calories burned related to exercise, correct? With my previous exercise band, I could set a general calorie burn per day. My exercises would could against that count. Is there a similar thing with the watch where I set a total per day count?
1. I did some looking around for Tabata training apps. I couldn't find one. In particular, I used one for indoor biking. 20 seconds intense, 10 second reset, 8 total times for a total of 4minutes. My previous band would vibrate at each change.
2. I was also able to create custom exercises. I don't have much home equipment, a few dumbells, a ball. I was able to set number of reps, duration of reset between reps and rest duration between different exercises. I have seen a few apps, but I'm looking for some recommendations again. I'm not against spending some money, but I'd like to avoid paying a yearly subscription if possible.
3. Sleep tracking. I downloaded one app, but it doesn't seem that great. Other recommendations here too.
Thanks again for your time.
I hope Apple expands that device capabilities further. I'd like a web dashboard so I don't have to view everything on the phone. I generally avoid using my phone if I have other options.

Grilling the bread for this panzanella (bread salad) adds a slight smokiness and crunch. Marinate the tomatoes ahead of time so all you have to do is grill the bread and assemble the salad to serve.
+ Add To Shopping List
1 garlic clove, smashed
2 pounds heirloom tomatoes, cut into 1-inch pieces
1 small red onion
1/4 cup red wine vinegar
3/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for brushing
Freshly ground pepper
1 (12 ounces) loaf country bread, sliced 1/2 inch thick
2 bunches (6 ounces each) arugula, stems discarded
5 ounces (1 1/4 cups) ricotta salata, crumbled
Active: 30 Minutes
Total: 1 Hour, 30 Minutes
On a cutting board, using the flat side of a chef's knife, mash the garlic clove to a paste with a pinch of salt; transfer to a large bowl. Add the tomatoes, onion, vinegar and the 3/4 cup of olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Let the mixture stand at room temperature, stirring a few times, for at least 1 hour or up to 2 hours.
Light a grill. Brush the bread with olive oil and grill over high heat until toasted and lightly charred in spots, 1 minute per side. Let cool slightly, then cut into 1/2-inch cubes.
Add the bread and arugula to the tomatoes along with the ricotta salata and toss to combine. Serve right away.

I went to school here for grad school and not only is it one of the best campuses in Nebraska, but it's the best basketball school
I'm very biased because I went to grad school at Creighton and work there. But with that said, I think we have a beautiful campus. The groundskeepers go to great lengths to keep it looking wonderful. If you are coming to campus to visit, make sure to contact admissions or the information desk ahead of time. They do a nice...
I grew up going to St. John's church on Creighton's campus. Earned my BA there and now working on a Master's Degree. Each time I visit I am struck by how pretty the campus is and how much it has to offer the city.
Went to Family Weekend recently. The students and staff treat you like family. Very welcoming environment. I did the Jay Walk 5K as part of a fund raiser for a local school. It was nice and the Omaha Police department waa exceptional with reafdic conteol.
Old meets new is this very cool looking campus near downtown Omaha. The buildings and facilities seem beautiful.
We were the presenters for a workshop held in the ballroom at Harper Center. These people are professionals! We came in the day before the workshop to test audiovisual systems and computers. The staff there solved every problem we encountered. And, they did it with a smile. Special mention for Meredith and Abbie, who went over and above to give...
I attended a women's soccer game at Morrison Stadium last weekend. The facility is beautiful and well maintained.
Our oldest applied and was accepted. Since then it really feels like we've met up with some of our missing family! Can't say enough about how great they have made this transition for all of us! The nicest, most genuine people you could ever meet!
It is always a treat to visit our son at Creighton University. He is thriving well and Creighton is a great fit for him. The campus is beautiful even in the winter. The staff are friendly, professional and helpful. The campus is clean and easy to walk about. It was such a treat to go to see the Blue Jays...
I call on this school every time I go to Omaha. It is a beautiful campus, lovely facilities and great staff. The student body is a great bunch of students. It is located in a kinda of rough area and I would not visit the school at night without a group

Curiosity Mars Rover's Approach to 'Pahrump Hills'This southeastward-looking vista from the Mast Camera (Mastcam) on NASA's Curiosity Mars rover shows the "Pahrump Hills" outcrop and surrounding terrain seen from a position about 70 feet (20 meters) northwest of the outcrop.
The component images were acquired on Sept. 17, 2014, during the 751st Martian day, or sol, of Curiosity's work on Mars. The rover team used these images to select a first drilling site on Pahrump Hills, which is part of the base layer of Mount Sharp. The selected drilling location is in the near portion of the pale outcrop to the right of the sand ripples.
The scene includes four distinct features: 1) Sand ripples in foreground, typical of those along the floors of valleys in this area within Gale Crater 2) The Pahrump Hills section of the Murray formation, where approximately 60 vertical feet (18 meters) of rock layers are exposed 3) A darker ridge off in the distance toward the left 4) Northwestern slopes of Mount Sharp in the background, where an abrupt transition is apparent between the buttes and valleys in the lower part and the tilted and carved beds of the upper part
This view combines several exposures taken by the Mastcam's left-eye camera. The color has been approximately white-balanced to resemble how the scene would appear under daytime lighting conditions on Earth. NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory, a division of the California Institute of Technology, Pasadena, manages the Mars Science Laboratory Project for NASA's Science Mission Directorate, Washington. JPL designed and built the project's Curiosity rover. Malin Space Science Systems, San Diego, built and operates the rover's Mastcam.
