Though it's short of the V-8 urge found in its high-performance S5 cousin, the 2008 Audi A5 entertains casual and enthusiast drivers with V-6 power and a choice of gearboxes, not to mention good handling.
A 265-horsepower, 3.2-liter V-6 powers the 2008 Audi A5 with authority; its performance isn't especially responsive, but it's very smooth and refined and can push the A5 to 60 mph in about six seconds. The Washington Post describes the A5's demeanor as "smooth, gentle, yet powerful." Edmunds says "the spirited V6 provides likewise eager response," though ForbesAutos contends "the A5 doesn't necessarily feel like a high-performance coupe."
A six-speed manual or a six-speed automatic transmission is offered; the engine actually works very well with the automatic, executing quick, decisive downshifts. The Washington Post applauds the "silky six-speed automatic transmission." Most reviewers tried the manual. Motor Trend reports that while the gearing of the six-speed transmission is "well matched" to the powerplant, the shifter is "somewhat clunky," with an unfortunate tendency to hang between first and third; it "generally felt a bit remote and disconnected from the mechanism it controls." Edmunds thinks "the manual transmission's shifter has somewhat long, but light-effort throws with firm engagement." ForbesAutos observes the manual "felt imprecise moving the gears, especially compared to that of the BMW 3 Series."
For all its power, the 2008 Audi A5 drinks up at a reasonable pace; it's rated at 27 mpg highway, 18 mpg city. It does require more expensive, premium-grade gasoline, however.
Tuned more for ride quality than aggressive handling capability, the 2008 Audi A5 isn't especially exciting to drive, but steering is crisp and communicative, with a secure feel on the highway. Cars.com says, "Quattro all-wheel drive is standard; in normal conditions, it channels 60 percent of the power to the rear wheels." Even with the added weight of AWD, ForbesAutos says, "When pushing the A5 through quick turns, it feels heavier and less agile than the BMW 3 Series. But there is little body roll and the A5 stays planted, yet the ride is never harsh." ConsumerGuide notes "sharp bumps can register with a jolt," but acknowledges that it's comfortable enough for long road trips. An S-Line option package brings stiffer suspension settings and promises to make the A5 sprightlier in the curves.

Dear Project of the Month Club,
Happy New Year! In our first email of the year, we are excited to welcome 30 new people to the Project of the Month Club. These new members may have seen the Club featured over the holidays, or may have even received Club membership as a holiday gift. However you found out about the Club, we are thrilled to have you, and we are grateful for your generosity (and the generosity of those who gave to you!)
Then we have even more good news for you. Last month, you and the other Project of the Month Club members raised a record-breaking $4,594 for Education for Children in Ningxia Province, China. The Children of Ningxia organization provides scholarships to 95 children who would otherwise not have the money to attend school. Your combined donations provided year-long scholarships for five children. The families of these children will no longer have to worry about where the money for lunches or textbooks will come from in the new year. (Chinese New Year is on January 23 this year. How wonderful that five children can look forward to school rather than manual labor this year!)
January's featured high-impact project is called "Help These Children Avoid Further Suffering," a project by Retrak that meets the needs of children who have fled the famine-stricken areas in the Horn of Africa and are now living on the street in urban slums. "We want to be ready to act quickly as children arrive on the streets," says Anna, Retrak's project leader. "We will provide imediate care as well as offer them a real alternative to life on the streets. We will work to get these children back into a family environment." Your donations in January will be enough to put at least five homeless children into foster families in Ethiopia for a year. Thank you for giving these kids a fresh start for 2012.
We hope that you feel gratified seeing the impact of your giving on a regular basis. Thank you again, and we look forward to updating you on the high-impact project that you will support next month!
Warm regards,
Mari and the GlobalGiving Team

There are thousands of digital cameras available on the market. They all have different features and options. A camera may be great for one photographer and terrible for another, depending on that photographer's preferences and level of skill. One photographer may prefer simple, user-friendly cameras, whereas another may prefer what manual controls offer. Fortunately, in the world of digital cameras, there's something for everyone.
Point and Shoot Cameras
Point and shoot cameras are an excellent description of what they are. You point the camera at an object and shoot, thus capturing an image. Most digital cameras today are point and shoot, although many digital cameras offer additional controls that amateur photographers will not know about. Point and shoot cameras are often compact, thus appealing to an amateur photography audience.
With DSLR, or Digital Single Lens Reflex, the camera has only one lens. Instead of viewing the subject on a screen, DSLR cameras require the use of the optical view finder. These cameras also offer users more options for control, such as white balance, shutter speed, focus and ISO (sensitivity to light). DSLR cameras are substantially larger than point and shoot cameras, appealing to the more professional user.
Interchangeable Lens Camera
With an interchangeable lens camera, the lens can be removed and a different one attached. Interchangeable lens cameras offer a lot of adjustment options and various lens types, including the prime lens, which is not very flexible but offers excellent images quality; the wide angle lens for landscape shots and scenery; a macro lens for photographing miniature objects; and the zoom lens.

"Sometimes the chemistry of a band is apparent from the get-go. Sometimes the elements are all in place that there is no other way of being for a group of musicians but to be amazing. When you combine the forces of great songwriting, incredible musicianship and powerful energy into a musical group, you get something that is way more than the sum of its parts. Northern California alternative band Elephant Listening Project is just such a band that fits the description of stellar in more ways than one."
"It is often said that, "One moment can change the course of our entire lives, sometimes for the better, sometimes for the worse." In the blink of an eye, our world can turn on its head due to one event and our path in life is forever altered. Going about our daily lives, we strive to keep things simple and easy, but sometimes fate has a different plan for us. We get smacked upside the head by a twist of fate and find ourselves in turmoil and darkness. When that darkness hits, there are many ways we can deal with the new reality which we have been dealt. How we deal with it, positively or negatively, affects the outcome of that twist immensely."
"Elephant Listening Project – This San Francisco, CA quartet played a dirty trick on me. Their submission, along with the two other songs you can listen to on their ReverbNation page, were labled demos. With that label attached I expected to hear something rough around the edges. When each of these songs sounded just as good as anything I've bought recently I was rather shocked! Speaking of those three songs, they each offer up some serious melodic rock with nice hooks that will get stuck in your mind whether you like it or not. Oh, did I mention that the band is made up of former members of Montrose, The Coup, The Mo'fessionals, and Chrome Johnson? Well it is. ReverbNation Page – http://www.reverbnation.com/elephantlisteningproject Song Sample – Recording Shennanigans http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SqPTTr86Nig"
"In a nutshell, what happened this past year? We saw a lot of great new bands emerge from the North Bay: Beso Negro, Bitch Franklin, Soul Pie, Cup O'Joe, Elephant Listening Project, Clusterfunk, Mi Gaan, Spark & Whisper, The Emma Lee Project, Acacia, Knight Drive, Kinky Buddha and Lumanation,"
"As for Elephant Listening Project, I'm just going to go ahead and call them a "supergroup." The band lineup boasts two ex-Mo'fessionals: drummer Loring Jones, vocalist/guitarist Erik Smyth. Filling out the group is ex-Montrose bassist Steve Winter and guitarist extraordinaire Danny Uzilevsky (Chrome Johnson). The band's material consists of original compositions written by Smyth and is a potent blend of guitar-driven hard rock and stirring vocal melodies. The group can be heard on reverbnation.com."

UK insurers' internal model validation processes 'hugely inefficient'
UK insurers are wasting time and resources with inefficient model validation processes that risk underestimating the level of risk inherent in their Solvency II internal models. A slew of recent surveys have highlighted the significant challenges insurers are facing in creating a validation framework that is both cost-effective and suitably tailored to their model risk. A survey of Lloyd's of London insurers by actuarial consultancy Lane, Clark and Peacock, published last month, found that ha

SusanBSep 14, 2005Good, but still the weakest of all the Stereophonics albums. When its good its very good (Vegas Two Times, Rooftop, Lying In The Sun) but a couple of poor tracks bring it down (Have A Nice Day, Everyday I Think Of Money). To get a true feel for this band, listen to Word Gets Around and Language Sex Violence Other instead
JakeT.Feb 2, 2002Awesome!!!!!!
NavannaD.Dec 18, 2001Brilliant
DeniseMDec 2, 2001Brilliant! More chilled and laid back than thr previous two...
JoeH.Sep 17, 2001not as good as p and c but better than westlife!!!! Oh yeh im welsh as well!!!
StefanSep 13, 2001This album has a nice positive atmosphere. I love the songs, even the lyrics (they are quite funny). Don't know the former two albums though.
shakermakerAug 16, 2001not comparable with the first two albums. boring, too long songs repeating the same lyrics. they should sound more like rocknroll like in their beginning
[Anonymous]Jul 23, 2001It's unfair to criticise this album as I don't think they could ever reach the dizzy heights of Word Gets Around again but at some points it seems like they've had to struggle to think of some new tunes. Having said that Vegas Two Times and Rooftop rank among their best ever efforts.
DaffydJ.Jun 30, 2001It's the 'Phonics showing rock in a whole new way!
jad.Jun 24, 2001i love this album,critics are critics,how critics get paid for criticising something is beyond me.if you look hard enough for something to criticise about you will find it everytime!
Awards & Rankings
With the exception of the swaggering "Vegas Two Times," Just Enough may not pack the same wallop as Cocktails, but tunes like "Lying In The Sun" and the soaring "Watch Them Fly Sundays" instantly stand out as some of the band's best to date.
This is a record that delights in the contrast of the group's no-frills rock past and its radio-friendly, mid-tempo future.

Ive only owned my 91 YJ for about a month now and not knowing what the previous owner had done latley i desided to change my tranny fluid.. I called 5 different Jeep dealerships to ask what type of fluid my jeep needed. To my amazment i actually got 5 completly differnt awnsers. I was told GL-3, GL-5, ATF+4, 10w30, and 10w40.. I was blown away after alot more calls and research i put Lucas 75w90 in it. Still not sure if i need to change it to 10w30 but so far im not having any problems. But the point is 5 different Jeep DEALERSHIPS had no clue what the right fluid should be after imputting my VIN # into there system.
Thought this was interesting..
amsoil, Automatic transmission fluid. put in auto or manual. makes your shifting feel amazing!
I heard redline mt90....apparently anything but water seems to be ok. lol.
"Recommended lubricant for the AX15 and AX4/5 Transmission is SAE 75W-90, API Grade GL-5 gear lubricant."
This is quoted directly from the 1991 Chrysler factory service manual. (The Bible)
Thank you Wrangler Haven.
I got nearly laughed out the room for recommending the exact same thing 3 months ago at a Jeep club meeting.
It's Black n' White from the Friking Manual?!?
If I'm missing something, feel free to point it out?
Here is something interesting for you to research aswell..I copied it from a session with the jeep engineers.

Like JeeperDon, I would like some clarification on that point.
Here is what I use, and the advice I give others here on the forum (actually copied from a previous post of mine), it's based on my own research and I would like to know if it's accurate information.
Here's why I use 10W-30 motor oil.
The Mopar gear oil part number used to be 4897622aa, but when you search that part number you'll see it has been superceded by part number 4761839AC which comes up as 10w-30 motor oil. Here's a link to search the Mopar part numbers.
Yea Mopar make a sae 10w30 fluid just for your tranny, after going to countless part shops and reading many fourms i went with 75w90. It was the most common awnser i got from everyone including three local tranny shops. I also had called 1800-iam-jeep. Who couldnt awnser the question and never called me back like they said they would with an awnser..
I don't care who superceded what # to what. The Factory Service Manual lists the Tranny fluid as SAE 75W-90, API Grade GL-5 by the friggen people that designed and BUILT the Transmission. You could probably put cat piss in there and it would be just fine too.
For awhile.
it is either Plus 3 atf fluid, or atf type 7176.
i have been running mine with cheap 10w30 motor oil since march and wheel the piss out of it on a regular basis aswell as DD and have seen an improvement over the gear oil that was in it.. I have several ppl I trail ride with and they have been running the same thing in theirs for over 6 years and never once has a tranny gone out on them.
If you are speaking from something you read online and not from personel experience then I guess you can't believe everything you read, especially online.
I would gladly put my tranny and motor oil behind you and go anywhere as long as you do and garuntee 2 weeks pay that it will be in as good of condition as it was at the starting point//
I am not looking for a pissing match but unless you can provide me with credible proof from a tranny going bad from motor oil that would not have gone bad in the same situation with gear oil then I will conceed your answer...
first thing I looked at is what is the difference between 75w90 and 10w30,
basically they are very similar except for viscosity under pressure:
Synthetic Manual Transmission and
Transaxle Gear Lube 75W-90 API GL-4 (MTG)
Kinematic Viscosity @ 100°C, cSt (ASTM D-445)
Kinematic Viscosity @ 40°C, cst (ASTM D-445)
Viscosity Index (ASTM D-2270)
Flash Point, °C (°F) (ASTM D-92) 150°C Min.
204 (399)
Pour Point, °C (°F) (ASTM D-97)
-46 (-51)
4-Ball Wear 75°C, 1200 rpm, 40kg, 1 hr.
Brookfield Viscosity @ -40°C
Foam Stability (ASTM D-892) (20/50/20)
Copper Corrosion (3 hr, 121°C) (ASTM D-130)
Mobil 1 10W-30
SAE Grade 10W-30
Viscosity, ASTM D 445
cSt @ 40º C 62
cSt @ 100º C 10.0
Viscosity Index, ASTM D 2270 147
Sulfated Ash, wt%, ASTM D 874 1.0
HTHS Viscosity, mPa·s @ 150ºC ASTM D 4683 3.14
Pour Point, ºC, ASTM D 97 -45
Flash Point, ºC, ASTM D 92 224
Density @15º C kg/l, ASTM D 4052 0.86
if you compare them against each other you see...
"75W90 gear oil is actually of equivalent viscosity to a 10W40"
google for everything else
but this brings us back to the question of using gl-5 or gl-4
I have read those figures before aswell and agree the 10w40 is closer but the difference is not enough to spend the extra bones on gear oil when I get the same result from motor oil without any consequences. I know and agree that the factory calls for gear oil and most people use it. That was never my disagreement. It was with the fact of someone saying it will not work or last when it has already been proven time and time again that it does and will last..
It's all about personel preference.. this is one of soooo many things we all choose our own path on, but that does not give anyone a rite to bash another for their chose that works for them without harm..
No one's bashing anybody here. We're just having a discussion. If you choose to run motor oil in a gearbox, that's your God given right. It's your rig and you can do whatever you want. It'll probably be fine and may even shift smoother. Keep in mind though that they may have superceded that part number just to cut cost.
These Transmissions all came with 75W-90, Grade GL-5 from the factory. It works. Why take a chance on something else?
I completely understand what you are saying WH, but if we kept everything the same as when it came factory,because it worked, then there would be no modified jeeps on the road. Everything someone is using on their jeep or even in there jeep that wasn't an oem part on it when it sold off the lot is being made and used by others because someone before them had the light bulb above the head thinking hmmmm I wonder?????
So many ppl are afraid of something new or different because it's out of their box, but it doesn't neccesarily make it a bad change.
Because my jeep came factory with 5w30 grade does that mean my engine is going to quit because I changed that grade too?
If it has been proven to work and not be detrimental to our jeep what makes it wrong?
We change most every part of our jeep compared to the way it came from the factory in almost every other sense of the word and I dont se these as different as apples and oranges either.
I did alot of research myself after hearing about it the first time because I thought the samething as you,, "This has got to be the dumbest idea anybody could ever think up,,hummmmfh,, putting engine oil in my tranny,,what an idiot..."
After doing research for several days and seeing so many pros and not the first con,,other than hear say, I decided I would try it for 1 month then drain it and see what it looked like. Well, after feeling the difference in my shifting and how smooth it ran without any kinda leaks like I expected, I put it back in.
The real test was after wheeling it thru some trails with mild mud and a couple water crossing up to bottom of my doors. I drained it the next day and i was pleasantly surprised to see how well it looked.
I give you m word that while I'm on this forum I will do my very best not to ententionally give advise on matters I wouldn't put my own jeep thru..
I don't give advise based on hear say. I do research most of the day with my free time.
I'm sorda anal about hearing someone having issues I haven't experienced in my jeep or any of my vehicles for that matter and automatically go into search and learn mode..lol
Hope this gives all who reads this some insight as to the type of person I am..
I will gladly admit when I have made a mistake and find out myself or has been shown the error of my thinking and advice..
Man i didnt mean for this to turn into any kind of discusion. I got wanted to inform other owners that just because a Jeep dealership is what i would have thought was a good source for info on my Jeep doesnt mean they have any clue as to what they are saying. Yall do have alot of good info in the subject though.
this is healthy discussion,nothing for hating on..lol
I wish no ill will on anybody who has passion for what they believe.
I always try to keep an open mind on new ideas and if someone can prove there is a cheaper and just as effective way of doing something, then I will by all means give it a try.
That is what all forums were designed to do ,,let ppl put their ideas and successes and failures out here to help others coming up behind them.
The whole point of being an enthusiate is to be passionate about what you are doing.
To help aid in knowledge or repair of the very thing you love, whether it be yours or you fellow man/woman.
OK not to continuely bash on dealerships but you really need to hear the shit thats going on now...
I dropped my jeep of at the local dealership this morning to have five recalls fixed. I got a call about 10:30. They drove me Jeep into the shop replaced one of the recalls went to move it to another stall and it wont start. I hooped in my dads truck and went down there. They wanted $120 dollars to run a diagnostic test luckly for me the tec went to lunch and left the diagnostic unit plugged in my Jeep i ran a couple quick tests while no one was looking didnt come back with any codes... They said there is no pressure in the fuel lines so im bout 100% its the fuel pump. The want $277 for labor and me to bring the $90 pump. So a total of $367. They wont come of that at all they say even though it happened in there possesion they arent at fault. I was so pissed i couldnt see strait.
F*** a dealership when they finish with the recalls im gonna tow it to my mechanic..
If the recall they were working on first was the e-brake recall then tell there dumba$$ to hook the fuel pumps ground wire back up to the mounting bolt of the e-brake or to the tub somewhere..
THere are posts all over the net where ppl take there jeep in for the e-brake recall and the idiots didnt hook the ground wire back up...
PS no one is bashing you :confused:
You are right I should let people know,, I guess it wsa an assumption on my part that people would kno gear oil for standard is by the book.
I didn't mean for it sound as strong as it came out about being bashed..sorry for that one..
I guess those who aren't acustomed to working or even changing their own fluids would think because an auto takes atf that they could just as easily stick in a standard.
Point taken very well.
Man i am going so pissed if thats the problem. Unfortunalty is locked up in a buddys shop for the night, but yea thats what they replaced then it wouldnt start..
Well go figure it was that ground wire.. I connected it and fired right up..
Now don't tell me the dealership made an error,,,,
I mean they are ASE certified and went thru extensive training to work on our vehicles that were built by the very company that sent out the recalls....
You don't suppose that the mechanic missed the memo on putting everything back that they took loose when repairing the recalled item do you....
Been down this road before. It took me two days after that recall, to figure out that they forgot to hook my wire back up. I went storming back in there and told the service manager that he had a bunch of monkeys working in there.
How hard can it be? If you unplug it, PLUG IT BACK IN!!:banghead:
also UABYJ94 i was rereading some of my posts and I realized I was kinda bashing your way of doing things, so my apologies, life goes on true :)
:wavey::wavey:It's all good my fellow jeeper.. Don't sweat it at all..
I didn't take it the sense of bashing that my typed response made it sound..
Peace to you and happy tails ahead..

I commend the PV Town Council for this decision. I grocery shop almost daily and have a collection of reusable bags that make the trip to the market with me, loaded at point of sale, unloaded at home and then returned to the car for yet another shopping trip. Keeping a supply in the car means I have them when I shop at non-grocery retailers as well. So many stores sell, at a convenient price, reusable bags, that it's very easy to get in the habit of always having one on hand or take advantage of purchasing one that can be used again.

The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (the "CFPB") issued a consumer advisory (the "Advisory") in which it describes risks faced by consumers when engaging in transactions that involve virtual currencies. The CFPB also announced that it would begin to accept consumer complaints regarding a virtual currency product or service.
After describing virtual currencies generally, the CFPB cautions consumers that, among other things, they should: (i) be aware that virtual currencies can experience dramatic price fluctuations; (ii) know with whom they are dealing before entering into a virtual currency transaction (e.g., obtain information about a dealer who proposes to sell the consumer virtual currency and check whether a virtual currency exchange is, as required, registered with FinCEN); (iii) understand the full costs of the transaction (including potential mark-ups to the exchange rate or other fees); (iv) be aware that virtual currencies are targets for hackers and scammers; (v) be aware that virtual currency companies may not offer help or refunds for lost or stolen customer funds; and (vi) understand that there is no governmental guarantee that stands behind virtual currency accounts. The CFPB in the Advisory also urges consumers to take steps to protect their private keys (used to access their virtual currency) from theft or loss.
The CFPB's Advisory follows up on prior guidance related to the risks of virtual currencies issued by FinCEN, the SEC and certain federal and state bank regulators that focus upon financial institution safety and soundness concerns, investor protection and prevention of criminal activity rather than consumer protection. The CFPB did not indicate in the Advisory (or otherwise) that it intended to issue regulations concerning virtual currency.

Every Ash Wednesday I put away Book III of the Liturgy of the Hours, and pull out Book II for the Lenten and Easter Season.Book III is pretty big, but Book II is "the big book." It's a book that carries a little bit of penance for me, on days when the arthritis in my hands is acting up, because just holding it in prayer sometimes makes me aware of pain. The book gets heavy, but Lent is a heavy time; as my prayer is distracted, I simply offer it up -- I look at the crucifix on my oratory and … [Read more...]

Yes We Can: the Hospitality of Lent
When God, in the beginning, created man, he made him subject to his own free choice. If you choose you can keep the commandments; it is loyalty to do his will. There are set before you fire and water; to whichever you choose, stretch forth your hand. Before man are life and death, whichever he chooses shall be given him. -- Sirach 15:14-17Read in conjunction with this, and in light of all of my pathetic failings of which I moan to God in prayer, it occurs to me that I've spent my whole life … [Read more...]
Difficult Lent – Love, Pain and Balance
It's been a difficult Lent, for me, at least. Lots of things to ponder, and so little free time to really do it. One thing I've learned this Lent is that I am lending more time to work than to the things that matter. Not that work doesn't matter. It certainly does, and I love my job, and I am grateful, every single day to be able to make a living as a writer. But too much work has taken time away from people, from prayer and from the simple duties I have to the people I love and the God I … [Read more...]

Arizona Rattlers Host the Utah Blaze
The Arizona Rattlers did it. Somehow, they may good on their preseason promise to make the playoffs or else all season ticket holders would get back their scrilla. Now, with a postseason berth locked up, their final regular season game against the Utah Blaze means nothing, right?
You see, the Blaze are led by a quarterback by the name of Joe Germaine. Remember him? Not only did the Mesa Mountain View High School steal a fourth-quarter victory from us in high school, but then the Ohio State Buckeye pigskin slinger ripped out our hearts in the 97 Rose Bowl against ASU. Yeah, him.
Notice that feeling of universal inadequacy barreling out of your chest?

Buzsáki, György and Adam Kandel. Somadendritic backpropagation of action potentials in cortical pyramidal cells of the awake rat. J. Neurophysiol. 79: 1587–1591, 1998. The invasion of fast (Na+) spikes from the soma into dendrites was studied in single pyramidal cells of the sensorimotor cortex by simultaneous extracellular recordings of the somatic and dendritic action potentials in freely behaving rats. Field potentials and unit activity were monitored with multiple-site silicon probes along trajectories perpendicular to the cortical layers at spatial intervals of 100 μm. Dendritic action potentials of individual layer V pyramidal neurons could be recorded up to 400 μm from the cell body. Action potentials were initiated at the somatic recording site and traveled back to the apical dendrite at a velocity of 0.67 m/s. Current source density analysis of the action potential revealed time shifted dipoles, supporting the view of active spike propagation in dendrites. The presented method is suitable for exploring the conditions affecting the somadendritic propagation action of potentials in the behaving animal.
Recent in vitro experiments have provided evidence that the dendritic membrane can exhibit electroresponsive properties and actively support propagation of action potentials in dendritic compartments of cortical neurons (Johnston et al. 1996; Magee and Johnston 1995; Regehr et al. 1993; Spruston et al. 1995; Stuart and Sakmann 1994). Active dendritic properties may be critical in synaptic integration and plasticity because calcium influx into the cell depends on the number and frequency of fast (Na+) spikes successfully invading the dendrites (Jaffe et al. 1992; Spruston et al. 1995; Svoboda et al. 1997). Indeed, in vitro experiments suggest that dendritic fast action potentials may affect the efficacy of concurrently active synapses and influence synaptic plasticity by enhancing Ca2+ influx into the cell (Magee and Johnston 1997; Markram et al. 1997; Yuste and Denk 1995). Because a variety of conditions can affect the backpropagation and local boosting of the amplitude of dendritic action potentials, it is reasonable to expect that local enhancement of fast (Na+) action potentials can be behaviorally regulated (Buzsáki et al. 1996; Kamondi et al. 1997). Monitoring dendritic activity of single cells in the behaving animal, however, was not possible until recently. Herein we report that dendritic action potentials of individual layer V pyramidal neurons in the sensorimotor cortex can be recorded up to 400 μm from the cell body in the brain of awake rats.
Six male rats (250–500 g; 6–15 mo old) of the WAG/Rij strain (Harlan Sprague-Dawley, the Netherlands) were used in this study. The rats were anesthetized with a mixture (4 ml/kg) of ketamine (25 mg/ml), xylazine (1.3 mg/ml), and acepromazine (0.25 mg/ml). For the simultaneous recording of field potentials and unit activity in different locations and cortical layers, silicon probes with linear arrays of recording sites were used (Ylinen et al. 1995). The 16 recording sites of the silicon probe were 100 μm from each other in the vertical plane (80 μm wide at the base, narrowing to 15 μm at the tip). The probe was attached to a small movable microdrive that was fixed to the skull of the rat and the probe was moved to the desired position during the experiment. Two stainless steel screw electrodes were driven into the bone covering the cerebellum and served as ground and indifferent electrodes. Thalamic stimulating electrodes (2 60-μm tungsten wires) were inserted in the n. ventralis posterolateralis.
Physiological data were recorded on optical disks (1 Hz to 5 kHz) and sampled at 10 kHz/channel with 12-bit precision and analyzed off-line. Extracellular action potentials ("spikes") and field activity rising from slower membrane potential changes were separated by 120 dB digital filters (0.5–5 kHz and 1–500 Hz, respectively). The peaks of the largest amplitude extracellular spikes from a given site were detected by a peak searching software (Ylinen et al. 1995) and the derived pulses served as a reference signal for the construction of averaged unit waveforms from the wideband traces (1 Hz to 5 kHz).
The current source density (CSD) derivative of the simultaneously recorded extracellular voltage traces allowed for the continuous monitoring of the anatomical locations of sinks and sources of action potentials. The results are presented as the unscaled second derivative of potential as a function of depth (Ylinen et al. 1995). A more detailed description of methods is available in Kandel and Buzsáki (1997). The animals of the present report were part of that study.
Large amplitude action potentials, together with slow field potentials, could be recorded from layers II to VI in the awake rat (Fig. 1). Thalamic evoked field responses and spontaneously occurring spike-and-wave discharges resulted in spatially localized sinks and sources in the various cortical layers (Castro-Alamancos and Connors 1996; Kandel and Buzsáki 1997). Layer IV was recognized by a prominent sink during spike and wave patterns, sleep spindles, and thalamic-evoked responses (Kandel and Buzsáki 1997). Local field events, such as extracellularly recorded action potentials (spikes) were revealed by CSD analysis. Although quantitative separation of all observable spikes was not attempted, visual analysis of the traces revealed that 20–40 extracellular spikes could be recorded simultaneously from the various cortical layers. Figure 1 C shows representative CSD traces of well-isolated spikes. In each case, a clear source-sink-source triplet is present.
Action potentials of the same neuron were often simultaneously present on neighboring recording sites (Buzsáki et al. 1996; Drake et al. 1988; McNaughton et al. 1983; Recce and O'Keefe 1989). For the present report, analysis was confined to the largest amplitude layer V neurons (n = 27), which could clearly be distinguished from other spikes. The somata of these neurons were located from 100 to 400 μm below layer IV. We assumed that the largest amplitude spike of the simultaneously recorded spikes represented the somatic region of the cell. The half-amplitude width of these perisomatic action potentials (1 Hz to 5 kHz filtering) was0.72 ± 0.05 (SE) ms. Although fast-firing, short-duration (<0.6 ms half-amplitude) spikes were also encountered in layer V (Kandel and Buzsáki 1997), they were not included in the present work.
Action potentials could be recorded from three to five sites of the silicon probe, that is up to 400 μm from the soma of the pyramidal cell (Fig. 2). The most distal dendritic recording sites exhibited the greatest variability in amplitude. In some cases, clearly recognizable action potentials were often simultaneously present at five recording sites. Nevertheless, even in these cases action potentials of the same amplitude and waveshape, recorded from the presumed somatic site, were often associated with visible spikes at only three or four superficial sites. That these depth-amplitude distributions represented the same neuron, rather than incidentally coinciding neighboring cells was ascertained by a clear refractory period in the cross-correlograms of spikes recorded from the presumed somatic site and more superficial layers. The gradual time shift and amplitude decrement of the spikes recorded at different sites and their consistent presence on all of the interim sites provided evidence for the single unit nature of these potentials (Fig. 3). The larger amplitude variability at more distal sites relative to the presumed somatic site suggested that backpropagation of the action potential to the dendrites may vary substantially (Buzsáki et al. 1996; Spruston et al. 1995).
Whereas the amplitude decreased gradually in the dorsal direction (toward the apical dendrites), it exhibited a sharp decrease ventrally (Fig. 3, A and B). The latency of the negative peak of the spikes recorded at the various locations increased gradually from the somatic site (Fig. 3, C and D). The earliest action potential always occurred at the site of the maximum amplitude (soma) or at the electrode beneath it. The propagation velocity of the backpropagating action potential was 0.67 ± 0.11 m/s (Fig. 3 D). The gradually shifted dipoles, responsible for the delays observed in the extracellular space, were also evident in the CSD averages (Fig. 2). Two to three time-shifted sink-source pairs ranging from the soma to the apical dendritic sites could be identified.
Even with extensive visual analysis of numerous long records we failed to find examples where the direction of propagation would be from the dendrite to the soma. The criteria of such forward propagation of the action potential were 1) simultaneously present action potentials in three or more sites, 2) gradual amplitude increase towards the soma, and 3) gradual latency shift from dendritic to somatic recording sites. These findings therefore indicated that in the intact brain action potentials in layer V pyramidal neurons are most often initiated at the perisomatic region and retrogradely invade the dendrites. It must be emphasized, however, that rare dendritic initiation of somatic action potentials or action potentials confined to certain dendritic segments may not be reliably revealed by the present method.
Linear arrays of closely spaced recordings sites embedded in silicon probes allowed us to measure action-potential propagation of single cells in the awake rat. The present findings indicate that this method is suitable for exploring conditions, which may influence the somadendritic propagation action potentials in the behaving animal.
Our analysis was confined to putative layer V pyramidal cells. Although no anatomic verification was available, the physiological properties and location of these cells suggest that they comprised a similar cell type. We assumed that the largest amplitude event of the simultaneously recorded spikes represented the somatic region of the neuron. This assumption is supported by the observation that the largest amplitude population spikes, representing synchronous discharges of pyramidal cells, are largest in the cell body layer (Turner et al. 1991). In addition, simultaneous intracellular and extracellular recordings from the same pyramidal cells indicated that the largest amplitude extracellular spike is recorded around the cell body (R. Miles, personal communication).
The voltage gradient of the spike in the direction of the apical dendrites was gradual. In some cases dendritic spikes could be monitored as far as 400 μm from the soma of the recorded neurons. Most of layer V cells possess a single thick, long apical dendritic shaft (Szentágothai 1978) and the actively backpropagating action potentials (Stuart and Sakmann 1994) in the shaft were likely the main source of the spikes recorded in the extracellular medium. The action potentials were initiated from around the somatic recording site and propagated at 0.67 m/s velocity somatofugally. This value is somewhat larger than that obtained by simultaneous patch-clamp recordings from the soma and dendrites of layer V pyramidal cells in vitro (Stuart and Sakmann 1994). In no case did we observe forward propagation (i.e., dendrosomatic) of action potentials with extracellular recording. This may indicate that action potentials are most often initiated in the axon in the in vivo brain and their dendritic backpropagation is under tonic suppression (Svoboda et al. 1997). These observations, however, do not exclude the possibility of locally generated fast sodium spikes in more distal dendrites (Kamondi et al. 1997). However, such dendritically triggered action potentials may not successfully invade the soma, indicating that axonally and dendritically generated action potentials may serve different functions.
The amplitude variability at the dendritic recording sites may indicate that active backpropagation of the action potential is under complex control mechanisms in the intact brain (Spruston et al. 1995). Indeed, intracellular recordings from thin dendritic branches of CA1 pyramidal cells in vivo revealed action potentials ranging from 5 to 45 mV. The amplitude boosting of the dendritic spike was induced by the synchronous population activity of presynaptic CA3 neurons during sharp wave bursts (Kamondi et al. 1997). It is expected that similar population control also exist in neocortical networks.
Finally, the present findings also have important practical implications. First, a single recording wire electrode placed in layer IV can record cellular discharges of both layer IV neurons and layer V cells because of the large dendritic currents of the latter cells. Thus histological or physiological localization of a single electrode tip in a given layer cannot positively identify a neuron. Second, spatial clustering methods of extracellular spikes, on the basis of the assumption of point sources of action potentials, may inadvertently classify the activity of the same neuron as spikes derived from different cells because of the variability of action-potential backpropagation from the soma to the dendrites (Buzsáki et al. 1997; Kamondi et al. 1997).

Exclusive: Images Show Climate Change Worse than Previously Thought
19th January, 2007
Pictures available online for the first time show that the effects of global warming are far worse than previously expeced. The images produced by the Hadley Centre, part of the UK Meteorological Office, show for the first time that the Stern Review's timeline for action is wrong.Far from having two decades to take action, by 2020, unless dramatic cuts in greenhouse gas emissions have been achieved, parts of the globe will be experiencing temperatures 3°C above pre-industrial levels – the rise that is referred to as the economics of genocide.
In the UK by 2020 temperatures may be 1.2C warmer than the 1970's base and 2.5C warmer by 2050. By 2080 it could be as high as 4C warmer. These exclusive images show the necessity of taking action now.

Why was Anurag Kashyap furious at Tata memorial hospital doctor?
The ace director's Ugly received an open letter from the cancer surgeon. Read on to know what was in it that infuriated the Gangs of Wasseypur maker
Anurag Kashyap has been infuriated over the non-release of Ugly for most part of last year. But after the court registered his RTI against the 'Mukesh Ki Kahaani' disclaimer, he was enjoying some happy moments. If we recall, Kashyap had expressed his angst against the masking of cigarettes in films and he didn't wish to have the anti-smoking message displayed during the film. He considered it as "a gross violation of his creative expression and fundamental rights". Click here to read more

While he imagined himself as a modern prince it was really not true at all. What kind of prince has no throne to ascend to? What kind of prince has no subjects? No land? No regal standing? No superior education? Then again what is even the definition of a prince?
Thou is not noble. Neither does he rule my family nor me.A prince only by his words: a prince only by his own definition.
So then who does actually rule this city? There are people that make the rules and there are people that enforce those rules. There are people that seek to change the rules and there are those that celebrate the rules. None of these people are the rulers.
People vote and the implication is that they are making a choice. The choice in not really as grand of a bargain if you look. Are we voting for rulers? Are we voting for princes? Of course not.
Then at this point it seems to abstract. Are we seeking a prince? We know what our own rules would be. Rules that protect us and rules that ensure we have at least a fair chance if not an advantage. Is that perhaps the root of all evil? The most human of instincts is also the division.
Seeking the edge, seeking the advantage for ones own benefit. Perhaps to benefit your group, your team or your family. That benefit must some at a cost. To have the advantage surely means that someone must be at a disadvantage. So there is the inequality. We then have more rules.
While we have sought rules to give us the advantage we also seek rules that provide fairness. Rules to keep things fair. Rules to make sure nobody has an advantage. Of course this is a conflict rooted in the very fabric of our structure.
Who seeks to be the prince?

Is beauty something that people can see?
Or is beauty something that hides underneath?
Lets just make sure that we know for a fact
There is nothing you're missing, there is nothing you lack
No matter what society thinks
You are who you are; let your gentle eyes blink
So that you could see that others are judgmental
And they will not bother to be gentle
Many people are desperate to achieve perfection
But superficial things come with deception
You are the one that lies beneath
That no surgery can help achieve
So in the mirror you should smile and say
I thank god I'm me day to day

Description by OLDIES.com:
A seaplane lands on the island of Talua to unload three criminals - including Harry (Academy Award winner Frank Sinatra, 1954 Best Actor in a Supporting Role, From Here To Eternity) - plus a young priest, Father Perreau (Kerwin Mathews), who has come to succeed aging, irascible Father Doonan (Academy Award winner Spencer Tracy, 1938 Best Actor in a Leading Role, Captains Courageous and 1939 Best Actor in a Leading Role, Boys Town). When an earthquake and volcanic eruption strike Talua, Father Doonan persuades Harry to parachute with him into the mountains on a daring rescue to an isolated hospital. The party - mostly children - is menaced by landslides, forest fires, flowing lava and the near-collapse of a footbridge as they make their perilous way to safety. Tracy and Sinatra are in peak form as the unlikely heroes of this suspense-filled adventure.

I've always liked Amazon's "we think you'll like" blurbs, but their current
page layouts are very cluttered to my eye. If you put something in your
shopping cart there you can barely find it again, the page is so full of
"what other people bought" and "what you just looked at" and other ads. But
my personal taste runs high on the minimalist side when it comes to the
printed page. I still think a garden catalog website might find it useful to
have that kind of feature. You know what request I get off my catalog
website the most? I mean, besides the people asking me to send them a
catalog, having ignored all the statements on there that say I don't do
that. People want to know who offers pre-planned gardens. And I think the
companies are responding to that - I see a lot more of them offered than I
used to (or maybe I'm just more attuned to it, could be). Seems like adding
a little info on what plants would do well with what you just bought is
right along those lines.
Come to that, I wonder if a brick & mortar nursery might find it interesting
to try too. Certainly none of the ones around me have anything close to that

Hi, Cyndi.
The things I find most annoying about Amazon are all the little "based
on your past purchases, we think you'll like..." when I went there to
find a specific book and not a new release about amusing tales
concerning deformed children. That's the main reason I've quit using
Amazon. Wading through all of one's past purchases to find what you
want this time is simply too tedious and too time consuming.
