College Football Recap - Sept. 12
Wednesday, September 12, 2012
ON THE RIGHT TRACK#3 LSU 41, Washington 3: In a dominant performance by the entire LSU squad, the Tigers proved to be way too much to handle for the Huskies. LSU's trio of running backs, Alfred Blue, Kenny Hilliard and Spencer Ware destroyed Washington's defensive line and the Tigers' defense was not any nicer to the Huskies' offense as QB Keith Price struggled to ever get things going.#21 Kansas State 21, Miami (FL) 13: Known mostly for his ability to run, Kansas State QB Collin Klein showed his versatility as he was nearly perfect through the air, throwing 9-of-11 for 210 yards and a TD in a beat down of Miami on a day when the Wildcats looked exceptional all around.#25 Stanford 50, Duke 13: After a disappointing debut, the Cardinal looked much better as it held the Blue Devils to just 27 yards rushing and forced three turnovers in a dominant defensive showing. SHUTOUT AND SHUTDOWN#1 Alabama 35, W Kentucky 0: Some may have expected a more lopsided score, but do not be fooled, Alabama was nearly perfect at its own game, which was more than enough against Western Kentucky. Crimson Tide QB AJ McCarron had another great day and along with the rest of his team gave the Hilltoppers little chance for success. #6 Florida State 55, Savannah State 0: Savannah State was blessed with bad weather, which led to the use of a running clock in the second quarter and the eventual calling of the game with 8:59 to go in the third quarter in a loss that had the potential to be worse than last week's 84-point loss to OSU. FSU had 255 yards of offense in the first quarter and had scored four touchdowns in the first seven minutes of play. #20 TCU 56, Grambling St 0: On a record-setting night TCU QBs Casey Pachall and Trevone Boykin combined to complete all 17 passes, the most in FBS history without an incompletion, and TCU head coach Gary Patterson became the winnningest coach in school history. #17 Texas 45, New Mexico 0: The Longhorns rolled over New Mexico with ease as they scored six TDs and held the Lobos scoreless.NEW KIDS ON THE BLOCK#7 Georgia 41, Missouri 20: In Missouri's SEC debut, it appeared that it was rising to the occasion, until the third quarter arrived and Georgia kicked its game into high gear with dominant performances on both sides of the ball, scoring 32 second-half points to shut down the Tigers for good. #24 Florida 20, Texas A&M 17: On a day of firsts, Florida won for the first time after trailing at halftime under Coach Will Muschamp thanks to the Gator defense which completely shut down Texas A&M's offense in the second-half of its SEC debut. The first half, however, belonged to Texas A&M QB Johnny Manziel who had a stellar performance as the first freshman quarterback to start an opener for the Aggies since 1944.

By far the most common kinds of fossils found in Victoria are those of marine creatures, which are found in nearly all of the rocks that were deposited in the sea in past ages. The oldest of these marine rocks in Victoria were deposited during the Palaeozoic Era, 545 to 251 million years ago (mya). They form the highlands of the state, extending from the Grampians in the west to East Gippsland, and also occur in the eastern suburbs of Melbourne. Much younger rocks, formed between 65 and 1.78 mya during the Tertiary Sub-era, also contain marine fossils. These younger rocks occur along almost the entire southern coast of Victoria as far east as Orbost, including the eastern side of Port Phillip Bay and in the Geelong area.

Fossils of many different kinds of marine animals can be found in Victoria. Some of these represent kinds of animals that are now extinct, but others belong to groups that are still common and familiar in the sea today.
Common species of marine invertebrate fossils from Victoria are exhibited in the Marine Fossil Drawers in the Melbourne Museum Discovery Centre.

Maybe it might be a better choice of gravel to use a black gravel instead of a multi-colored. To highlight the glofish. Otherwise everything that you order is just what you need. Maybe you might need to order a extra air stone, Just in case you put in too many fish. OOPS

Actors Theatre moved several steps closer to ending its "pause" following a successful annual fund outreach campaign combined with the awarding of a $30,000 Shubert Foundation grant for general operations.
The Shubert Foundation, whose focus is to sustain and advance live performing arts in the US, has funded Actors Theatre consistently since 2001.
Actors Theatre closed out its fiscal year 2013 annual fund effort with donations of $54,000 from more than 200 donors in June alone. The year-long outreach brought in contributions from a total of 1,391 donors.
"As we make our way back from our 'pause,' support from an organization like the Shubert Foundation brings with it a level of acknowledgement that we're on the right track. We also received many comments from donors who shared that support and enthusiasm for our strategic rebuilding of the company," said Producing Artistic Director Matthew Wiener. "They also told us how much they missed our programming. We'll be filling that void shortly."
The New York City-based Shubert Foundation provides general operating support to nonprofit professional resident theatre and dance companies as well as to support the development of other arts-related organizations.
In April, Actors Theatre announced that A Steady Rain will open the 2013-14 season from Oct. 25 to Nov. 10 at the Playhouse in the Park at the Viad Corporate Center. Ticket information is available at www.actorstheatrephx.org. Performance dates are being finalized for Good People and the remaining two shows are being determined. Tickets will go on sale once all details are in place.

Saturday, February 7, 10:00 a.m.-3:30 p.m., Curating Goya
Meadows Museum
Bob and Jean Smith Auditorium
5900 Bishop Blvd., Dallas
In the words of one recent author, Francisco Goya (1746-1828) is enjoying a "pop-culture moment." Two large-scale exhibitions devoted to him opened this fall at the Meadows Museum and the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, and three more will open in Europe next year. With an oeuvre encompassing some 1,800 works, from commissioned portraits to dreamlike fantasies, Goya never ceases to intrigue and surprise viewers. At the same time, his vast and varied output presents particular challenges for its interpretation and display. In a public symposium, curators of recent and upcoming shows on Goya will discuss how different approaches to exhibiting Goya's work invite new paths for understanding his art.
Opening remarks will be made by Mark A. Roglán, the Linda P. and William A. Custard Director of the Meadows Museum and Centennial Chair in the Meadows School of the Arts; and Richard Brettell, Founding Director of the The Edith O'Donnell Institute of Art History and the Margaret M. McDermott Distinguished Chair of Art and Aesthetic Studies, The University of Texas at Dallas.
Meadows/Kress/Prado Fellow Alexandra Letvin will moderate. There will be a lunch break. Reception to follow.
This symposium is co-organized by the Meadows Museum and the Edith O'Donnell Institute of Art History at The University of Texas at Dallas.
UT Dallas offers graduate courses in Aesthetic Studies the focus being art history and museum practices, theories, methodologies as well as critical themes at play during specific periods and art historical movements.

Siena (6-16) was led by Vincent Citro with three of the team's 10 hits and two RBIs, including a run-scoring triple, while Brian Fay contributed a three-run homer, his second four-bagger of the season.
MacDowell provided two singles and a key three-run triple in the third that gave the Green the lead for good, while Selzer added a pair of singles and a double while scoring twice and driving in a run. Junior Jeff Keller was 2-for-3 with two walks, a double and a two-run round-tripper, his first of the season, and sophomore Nick Lombardi belted his team-leading third homer, a three-run job to cap the scoring in the game.
Dartmouth jumped on Saint starter Dan Dopico (0-1) for a run in the first on a Selzer two-out RBI double to the gap in right-center, and Keller launched his two-run bomb in the second for a 3-0 Big Green lead.
But Siena stormed back in the top of the third, taking advantage of a lead-off walk to the ninth hitter in the order, Tyler Martis, who immediately scored on Citro's triple. Dartmouth sophomore starter Adam Frank blindly stopped a liner up the middle and recovered for the first out, but Mike Fish made it a one-run game with dribbler up the first-base line that he beat out for a single. Fish quickly stole second and scored on a Larry Balkwill single between short and third. After John Rooney drew a walk, freshman Duncan Robinson was summoned from the bullpen. His third pitch was pulled down the right-field line just fair by Fay for a three-run blast and a 6-3 Saint lead.
That lead was short-lived, however, as the Big Green responded with five runs of their own in the bottom half. The inning began with a single, hit batter and a walk to load the bases, and Lombardi skied a ball to center for a sacrifice fly. Dopico got the second out on an pop-up down the left-field line that the shortstop corralled, but when Keller walked to load the bases again, MacDowell lined a pitch into the right-field corner to clear the bases and put Dartmouth back on top before freshman Nick Ruppert stroked an RBI double to make it an 8-6 game and end Dopico's day.
Neither team scored in the fourth, but the Green got the bats going again in the fifth as Ruppert hit an RBI single to score Keller who had doubled. A single by sophomore Matt Parisi loaded the bases, and freshman Trent Goodrich brought home another run with a sacrifice fly for the second out. Senior Ennis Coble then dumped a pitch toward the left-field corner that spun away from the fielder for a two-run double for a 12-6 Dartmouth advantage.
Siena strung together three two-out singles in the sixth, the last one off the bat of Citro, for its seventh run.
Lombardi left no doubt to the outcome of the game in the bottom of the eighth when he hit a towering shot to left to score Coble and Selzer.
Junior Louis Concato (1-1) was credited with the victory after pitching the fifth and sixth innings, yielding a run on three hits with one strikeout. Each of junior Mike Dodakian and freshmen Beau Sulser and Michael Danielak threw an inning to close out the game, with Danielak striking out the side in the ninth to end the contest with a flourish.
Dopico was roughed up for eight runs on seven hits in 2.2 innings of work, walking two and hitting two as well.
Dartmouth returns to the road this weekend to begin its quest for a sixth straight Rolfe Division title in the Ivy League, traveling to Philadelphia for a noon doubleheader on Saturday against Penn (13-7) before going to New York for a noon twinbill on Sunday against Columbia (7-12). Next up for Siena is a home MAAC series with Marist starting Thursday at 3 p.m.

A month later, fallout from Facebook IPO persists
SAN FRANCISCO – When Facebook went public a month ago today, the early betting was that it would storm out of the IPO chute and usher in a new wave of tech stock offerings. Some went so far as to compare its impact to that of Google's 2004 IPO.
But Facebook's initial public offering went from an anticipated bump up in price into a dump, and the ripples extended far and wide on the technology landscape. "The IPO was a disaster," says Geoff Cook, chief operating officer of social network MeetMe. "It definitely cooled interest in the sector. It changed the tenor of the conversation."
The chilling effect that Facebook's fortunes could have on other companies eyeing their own IPOs was underscored in a blog post by Y Combinator founder Paul Graham, cryptically called "start-up apocalypse." In it, the head of the company that helps start-ups get a strong financial boost said investors are convinced that Facebook's IPO "will hurt the market for earlier-stage start-ups."
PHOTOS: The Facebook story
COLUMN: Ask Matt: Should investors join Facebook lawsuits?
COLUMN: Bartiromo: Fund manager bet against Facebook and won
It didn't take long after Facebook's IPO face-plant for many companies to abandon their dreams of going public. This year, 29 companies have pulled their plans to go public. That's level with this point in 2011 but up 53% from this point in 2010, Renaissance Capital says.
"Some people thought the (Facebook) IPO would jump-start the IPO market," says Richard Peterson of S&P Capital IQ. "But it's caused just the reverse."
Many of the companies getting cold feet are in tech: Travel search company Kayak Software and Vkontakte, one of Russia's most popular social networks, quickly delayed their IPOs after Facebook's fizzle.
"It boggles my mind that the IPO of the century turned out so badly," says Greg Tseng, CEO of social network Tagged. "This was supposed to be our (sector's) Google," he says, referring to social media. "If you told me (Facebook) would open at $38 and now be at $28 (on June 6), I would have said you were nuts. … It definitely hurt the perception of our whole industry."
The lineup of IPO hopefuls continues to fade. Just 11 companies in May filed plans to go public, down 66% from May 2011 and the lowest level of activity in the month of May since 2009, during the global financial crisis. The tepid IPO climate might even scotch altogether the hopes of other start-ups, forcing them to consider acquisitions by larger companies such as Google, Apple and Amazon — perhaps even by suddenly cash-rich, post-IPO Facebook.
Making things worse is that Facebook is not alone in disappointing IPO investors. Other high-profile IPOs, especially in the social-networking and Internet industries — including online game site Zynga, online discounter Groupon, online review site Yelp and Internet radio station Pandora — have all faltered and share prices have fallen at least 30% since trading began.
This year, 35% of IPOs priced below their expected price ranges, a strong indication that companies must resort to discounting their shares just to attract enough attention to get the deals done. The number of companies going public at lower-than-expected prices is up from 24% in 2011 and 29% in 2010.
The bigger IPO picture
Entering May, 58 companies had priced their IPOs this year, says Renaissance Capital. That was the best showing since 2000, signaling to some that investors were finally wading back into IPOs after getting burned in that year's dot-com crash. Facebook was supposed to open the IPO floodgates.
Instead, Facebook shares were flat on their first day of trading, not showing the first-day pop in stock price that many expected. The deal was mired with technical trading glitches on the Nasdaq stock exchange. But that was just the beginning. Investors dumped shares as fears mounted that they might be overpriced in light of questions about the company's ability to sell ads on mobile devices. Shares of Facebook are down 21% from the initial $38-a-share price.
Lawsuits by disgruntled investors who participated in Facebook's IPO are pending. Investment banks are under fire for not sharing pertinent Facebook information with all shareholders. Nasdaq has apologized and agreed to compensate some brokers for the botched first day of trading.
But more important, the poor debut of Facebook shares has put a pall on the entire IPO market. Not a single IPO has priced since Facebook's deal.
Ironically, perhaps, Facebook may be the sole benefactor of a public offering that weakened the social-media market and undercut possible IPOs, say analysts, developers and venture capitalists. Despite its IPO stumble, Facebook remains the de facto social-networking platform, with more than 900 million users and the $16 billion in cash it raised in the IPO.
With that money, Facebook can develop new products and potentially buy an up-and-coming upstart just as Salesforce.com bought potential IPO candidate Buddy Media, a social-media marketing company, this month.
"There is no vapor trail for others to follow," says Esteban Kolsky, principal at customer-strategies adviser ThinkJar. "But long term, Facebook did a masterful job of raising money, so give the stock some time to settle."
Facebook's long-range plans
For Facebook, the issue isn't so much about its flagging stock price but its long-term plans. The company has the flexibility — unlike many of its peers — to pursue revenue for mobile ads and targeted marketing.
Facebook is in the enviable position of being the center of the social-network ecosystem, where users manage all of their third-party apps, says Gina Bianchini, founder of Mightybell, a new social-networking app for online groups.
"They're doing something right with $4 billion in revenue (in 2011), and they're in good position to build targeted ads," says Jon Elvekrog, CEO at 140 Proof, a technology platform that analyzes publicly available social feeds on Facebook and Twitter.
Because Facebook is so rich in demographic data on millions of people, it could unleash billions of dollars in ads for advertisers that target what consumers say and whom they follow, says Elvekrog.
"It is the largest Internet site in the world, with a strong global reach," says Bill Gurley, a general partner at Benchmark Capital, a backer of Twitter, Instagram, Yelp and others.
Facebook's stock performance doesn't change the fact that social is "the No. 1 online activity," ahead of e-mail and video, Elvekrog says. "A blowout IPO would have set a better mood, yes," but the opportunity for Facebook to capitalize on its audience "is huge," he says.
The company may have some investors worried, but software developers are pumped. "Our brands continue, day-to-day, to be discovered via the Facebook platform," says Christian Taylor, CEO of Payvment, an e-commerce platform on Facebook that is signing 1,500 small and midsize sellers per week and is up to 165,000.
Brian Blau, consumer analyst at market researcher Gartner, says it's all about Facebook's customer base. Developers "are run by boards, who want them to reach consumers and make money. Facebook helps them do that."
Not that Facebook is taking chances. On June 7, it unfurled its own App Center, modeled after Apple's App Store, that gives developers a reason to stick around by helping Facebook members find their apps.
Without an app store, developers might flee to other platforms that aren't connected to Facebook, such as iPhone or Android apps, or apps connected to Google+.
To be sure, Facebook faces severe challenges. Its user growth rate has sputtered in the U.S. Unique visitors to the site in April were 158 million, up 5% from a year ago, the lowest growth rate since research firm ComScore began tracking the data in 2008. Facebook's growth rate was 24% in April 2011 vs. a year earlier and 89% in April 2010 vs. the previous year, ComScore says.
Not only that, Facebook's respected chief technology officer, Bret Taylor, says he is leaving for an unnamed start-up this summer.
Earlier this month, Facebook said it would make it easier for advertisers to place ads on mobile devices. It acquired mobile-commerce start-up Karma and hired the mobile-development team away from Pieceable Software.
Mobile advertising spending in the U.S. is expected to reach $2.61 billion this year, up 80% from $1.45 billion in 2011, eMarketer estimates. For now, Google has about 52% of the market. Apple and Millennial Media, which do not sell mobile search ads as Google does, lag far behind, at Nos. 2 and 3.
Twitter CEO Dick Costolo, meanwhile, says his company generated more advertising revenue from smartphones and tablets than from its website on many days in the past quarter: He declined to provide dollar figures.
Counters Carolyn Everson, vice president of global marketing solutions at Facebook, "We've seen powerful indicators that when people see sponsored stories on mobile, they engage … as much as they do on the Web."
In the end, Facebook's unprecedented scale, technically and in terms of marketing, offers it immense advantages — but only if it learns how to harness it, says Jeffrey Davitz, CEO of Solariat, which helps companies filter and respond to social content. "There has never been a window into that many people," he says.
'Big backlog' of IPO candidates
Meanwhile, Francis Gaskins of IPOdesktop.com says jitters in the IPO market are only temporary. There's a "big backlog" of companies waiting to go public during the summer, and many have the fundamental strength to still attract investors, he adds.
Much of the weakness in the IPO market is due to macro issues, such as the fragile European economy, uncertainty about the outcome of the upcoming U.S. presidential election and a U.S. stock market that has been shaky since May, he says. The Standard & Poor's 500, a measure of large U.S. stocks, teetered dangerously near a 10% correction in early June. If the stock market regains its footing, companies with the best fundamentals can test the IPO market again, says Peterson of S&P Capital IQ.
Companies and their underwriters will just need to lower their expectations for the types of valuations they get, after the nosebleed valuation of Facebook was so soundly rejected, Gaskins says.
Future IPO investors could actually benefit from the damage Facebook's deal inflicted on confidence. With fewer investors clamoring for shares, the investors willing to buy can demand better prices.
"If the (stock market) indexes are stable, we should have quite a few more IPOs when bankers realize they can't overprice them," Gaskins says.
Swartz reported from San Francisco, Krantz from Los Angeles.

Sorry if this has been discussed here before. I'm a 42 year old male and my ex and I have a requirment in our property settlement that we each have to have a $500k life insurance policy with each other as the beneficiary, so the kids are covered in case anything happens to one of us. I pay about $34/month for this and I got it in 2003. I'm about 6' tall and 200lbs but have broad shoulders and am muscular. I'm very athletic and feel like I'm in great shape but, of course, when they took my measurements using BMI I came in as being "obese". I'd like to switch from the company I'm currently with for a couple of reasons but I'm wondering if anyone out there can recommend a company that, instead of using BMI, would use a more accurate measurement like body fat percentage. I'd also, obviously, want to go with someone that truly understood cholesterol and didn't give me a red flag for my very good, albeit primal, cholesterol levels. Thanks in advance.

CB Rodgers-Cromartie injures ankle
ENGLEWOOD, Colo. (AP) — Denver Broncos cornerback Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie was helped off the field after hurting his left ankle in a drill Wednesday at training camp.
Asked his level of concern over the injury after practice, coach John Fox said, "Not overly. But anytime they miss time, I'm concerned." Guard Justin Boren also was taken off with a big toe injury.
The Broncos have already had quite a few injuries so far in camp. Center Dan Koppen was lost for the season with a knee injury last weekend and first-round pick Sylvester Williams left the field on Monday with a left knee ailment. Williams was on the field Wednesday, but didn't participate in any drills.
Tight end Jacob Tamme (right quad) also sat out practice.

Facebook Faces Opposition To Privacy Settlement
NEW YORK (AP) — Facebook may have considered the matter settled, but a group of consumer and children's advocates are renewing their legal battle over teenagers' privacy on the world's largest online social network.
At issue is a 2011 class action lawsuit over Facebook's use of people's images in advertisements known as "sponsored stories." This allowed companies to pay to retransmit users' activities to their friends' pages. If someone clicked the "like" button for a brand, the click could show up as a "sponsored story" on friends' pages.
A federal court approved a settlement last August.
But the nonprofit Public Citizen and six parents of teenagers on Thursday filed a legal brief in a federal appeals court in California saying the proposed settlement should be rejected.

Neil Young taking hybrid bio-electro LincVolt car on the road
Listen to Neil Young on iHeartRadio
Neil Young is on a special road trip.
The rocker recently launched a trek to showcase his 1959 Lincoln Continental convertible, which he's modified into an energy-efficient vehicle that runs on cellulosic ethanol. And they're documenting their journey on the car's Tumblr page.
The vehicle introduces herself as "LincVolt," but says "you can call me LV." She explains that she's "not just another classy chassis" but has "a lot going on under the hood," which is why she has the blog. With the trek LV and Young - her "b-f-f and driver" - are "demonstrating the viability" of cellulosic ethanol, and will visit "Washington DC, Detroit and other centers to show that a big car can be very clean, economical and efficient."
So far LV and Young have traveled to California's Joshua Tree National Park and the Imperial Sand Dunes. They've also posted a photo of the "VLC," which LV explains is her "polar opposite" - a Very Light Car.
LV admits she's a "Very Heavy Car" but doesn't really want to discuss her weight, because she's "a lady." LV adds that she and the VLC are "soul sisters" who both "believe in zero emissions and in saving Mother Earth." Fans can read more of LV's blog at lincvolt.tumblr.com.

I agree, the voice does work very well. I like it a lot. I don't see much of a speed difference though, if anything both safari and chrome are equally matched on my phone (sometimes chrome is faster even). I tested it on two iPhone 4's with Verizon 3G. It's a great browser though, I can see why it's in the top charts.
I can't get it to download files? Is it not compatible for that?
Downloaded chrome for the iPhone yesterday and really like it! Don't plan on using it much until I can either jailbreak and tweak something to set as default browser or apple at some point allow third party browsers to be set as default. Whichever comes 1st...
I'm giving Chrome iOS a shot, but I don't know how much it will take me away from iCab. I like having the tab bar visible all the time with the ability to go to full screen. Chrome also has pretty much no settings to tweak the experience. If I wanted to use default settings, I'd stick with Safari.

Artist's rendering of a NOAA GOES-R satellite. (NOAA image)
The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration is in the midst of developing two major satellite systems worth more than a combined $22 billion. The programs are vital to the future of the country's weather prediction efforts, but the Government Accountability Office has issues with both.
In one of two reports released Sept. 19, GAO criticized NOAA's next-generation polar-orbiting satellite program – called the Joint Polar Satellite System (JPSS) – for not developing a means to track the usage of satellite products or address weaknesses in component schedules, and urged NOAA to develop a contingency plan.
NOAA agreed with GAO's recommendations regarding its JPSS program, yet there is still cause for concern.
GAO: Geostationary Weather Satellites
GAO: Polar Weather Satellites
JPSS-1 is not scheduled to launch until 2017, and NOAA currently relies heavily on a converted satellite called the Suomi NPP for the lion's share of the weather data its polar-orbiting satellites produce. That satellite, launched in 2011, is not expected to last long, creating the possibility that NOAA could face months or even years without its own satellites in place to make daily readings. That could severely affect weather forecasts, especially regarding hurricanes and other large storm systems.
To deal with the problem, NOAA commissioned a third-party study to examine mitigation options. It ultimately examined 44 potential solutions to an expected gap in weather data that could occur as early as 2014.The study concluded the only "silver bullet" solution was to use data from Chinese polar-orbiting satellites that will soon be operational.
The potential JPSS gap was expected to be a main topic of conversation as NOAA, NASA and GAO officials were scheduled to testify Sept. 19 before the House Subcommittee on Oversight and Subcommittee on Environment. The hearing was titled "Dysfunction in Management of Weather and Climate Satellites."
Also sure to arise, however, is a potential delay in another NOAA program -- this one for next-generation geostationary satellites.
GAO auditors said the $10.9 billion Geostationary Operational Environmental Satellite-R (GOES-R) program is not reporting key data on reserve funds to senior officials, has delayed interim milestones and is experiencing technical issues.
Those issues may delay the launch of the first GOES-R satellite.
NOAA had scheduled the first launch for October 2015, but according to the GAO's latest report, NOAA officials acknowledge the launch may be delayed by six months.
A launch delay would increase the time that NOAA is without an on-orbit backup satellite," the report said. "It would also increase the potential for a gap in GOES satellite coverage should one of the two operational satellites (GOES-14 or -15) fail prematurely – a scenario given a 36-percent likelihood of occurring by an independent review team."
GAO recommended NOAA address weaknesses in managing reserves and scheduling for the GOES-R satellite program, and that it address shortfalls in contingency planning, to which NOAA agreed.
Geostationary satellites orbit 20,000 miles above the Earth's surface, a height that matches their velocity to the Earth's rotation, keeping them in a fixed position relative to the planet. That allows them to provide large-scale satellite imagery of entire storm systems on both coastlines. Polar-orbiting satellites orbit only about 500 miles above the Earth's surface and their measurements provide a more complete picture of individual storm systems. Together, the daily data these systems produce weigh heavily in forecasts by the National Weather Service.

Quality production ended with World Wars I and II and the Communist takeover of Hungarian winemaking. Aszú grapes were used for mass production in factories, with vineyard distinctions lost in giant tanks. Tokaji's renaissance began after the collapse of communism with the Royal Tokaji Wine Company (RTWC) in 1989, inspired by well-known wine author, Hugh Johnson, and others. RTWC's founders started the winery in an effort to preserve what they considered a dying art. "I couldn't resist bringing back to life a wine that had been so renowned centuries ago," says Johnson.
About HungaryView a map of Hungary wineries
Wine of Kings and the King of WinesThe most well-known and important wine in Hungary is Tokay-Aszú, truly one of the world's greatest sweet wines. Louis XIV – France's Sun King – once called the wine, "vinum regum, rex vinorum," translated as, "the wine of kings and the king of wine." Unfortunately, the king of wine suffered during Hungary's 50-year communist regime - exports of Tokay-Aszú decreased and the vineyards were nationalized with a focus on lower quality and higher quantity. When the communist government fell in 1989, the vines for making Tokay-Aszú were in a state of disrepair. With the help of investors and the creation of the Royal Tokaji Wine Company, the Hungarian vineyards and wine industry were rebuilt.
Notable FactsWhile Tokay-Aszú is the most important and most imported of Hungarian wines, it only represents about 10% of the total wine produced. The rest of Hungary is spotted with over 20 different wine regions, most cultivating both the indigenous varieties of the country and several international varieties that arrived with the post-communism investors. In the whites, the indigenous variety of Furmint plays double duty, making still white wines and remaining the most crucial grape in the Tokay blend. Other indigenous varieties include Hárslevelú, Olaszrizling (Welschriesling) and Irsai Oliver, a newcomer that produces delicious dry whites. The international varieties of Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc, Riesling, and Muscat also play a role. For reds, Merlot is the most popular of the international crowd, while on the indigenous side you have Kadarka and Kékfrankos (the Hungarian name for Austria's Blaufränkisch).
About Tokay-Aszú
To make Tokay-Aszú is a process:
Two sets of grapes are picked – first, the workers scan the fields, picking the Aszu grapes - those affected by botrytis. These grapes are then gently pressed to make an Aszú paste. Grapes not affected by botrytis are then picked and fermented into a high-acid base wine.
Once both the paste and the still wines are complete, the two are combined. The Aszú paste is added to the base wine in amounts referred to as puttonyos (puh-TOON-yohsz). The higher the puttonyos, the sweeter the wine. Most Tokay-Aszú on the market is between 3 puttonyos and 6 puttonyos.
Beyond 6 puttonyos is Tokay Aszú Essencia. Tokay Aszú Essencia is equal in sweetness to about 7 puttonyos, and is made in only the best years from the best vineyards.

Bodhi is a Buddhist name which translates to enlightenment as in someday hopefully Megan will be Bodhi about what an a-hole Brain is. The middle name is Ransom because it will probably take a huge ransom to get Megan away from the talons of BAG unless he can find someone else he can control like he does her. In the past week of celebrity births we had two completely normal names of Eric (Simon Cowell) and Hazel (Emily Blunt and John Krasinski) so I guess we were do for something strange. I can maybe live with the Bodhi if I thought the couple were actually practicing Buddhists. The Ransom thing I just don't get.

The thing that stuck out to me the most today at Lower Trestles for the 6-Star Prime rated Nike 6.0 Pro was how much better the WCT guys are than the your standard, mid-level WQS'ers. Dream Tour dudes that you may never have heard of, France's Tim Boal for instance, made their competition look slow and uninspired. Not to say some of the guys who don't dream about a tour weren't blowing up, Mitch Coleborn, Evan Valiere, Rob Machado, Nat Young, and particularly Nate Yeomans (who had just arrived home from South Africa) were holding it down for the QS crew. With a fresh southwest swell brewing, the surf at Lowers should be firing tomorrow; make sure to log on to http://www.nikelowerspro.com/ tomorrow and watch the action live!
Who's your pick to take the Nike 6.0 Lowers Pro? Leave your answer in the comment box below.

SAN CLEMENTE, California (Wednesday, April 29, 2009) – The second day of the Association of Surfing Professionals (ASP) World Qualifying Series (WQS) 6-Star PRIME 6.0 Lowers Pro offered improved two-to-three foot (1 metre) conditions to the event's top seeds and saw Lower Trestles local Nathan Yeomans (San Clemente, CA), 27, lead the field through to Round 3.
All surfers competing in the ASP 6-Star PRIME 6.0 Lowers Pro are looking to capitalize on the ample ratings points on offer at the premier event. The ASP WQS contest's PRIME status offers the maximum amount of ratings points towards each surfers qualification campaigns for the coveted ASP World Tour, making the stop at Lower Trestles significant for each surfer's 2009 overall rating on The Grind.
Yeomans put his local knowledge of Lower Trestles to good use when he destroyed a long righthand wall with several beyond-vertical blasts to post the day's highest single wave score of a 9.47 out of 10. The talented goofy-footer continued to dominate his heat when he bashed another impressive score and earned the day's highest heat total of 18.24 out of 20.
"I was actually positioning myself for the left because I saw everyone scrambling for the right and I was able to get underneath them," Yeomans said. "I knew it was going to be a nice right, and I was able to get a couple of good turns and it had a nice wall so I was able to ride it all the way through. I knew it was going to be a good score, so when I heard the 9-point-score, I was like, yeah, I like that!"
The San Clemente native is hoping that he can utilize his familiarity of the cobblestone reef to post a top result at the 6.0 Lowers Pro. Yeomans has had a successful competitive history at previous ASP WQS events at the location in past years and is out to capitalize on the contest's ASP 6-Star PRIME status to help his cause towards qualification for the ASP Dream Tour.
"I've yet to make the Final out here and I had a bad event here last year, but I made the Semifinals the two years before that," Yeomans said. "It's always been a good event for me and now that it's a 6-Star PRIME, it really counts for qualification for the World Tour. It's definitely one of everyone's favorite places to surf, so I'm glad that it's a 6-Star PRIME."
Adriano de Souza (Guaruja Sao Paulo, BRA), 22, displayed world-class surfing today at Lower Trestles, explaining why the young Brazilian is a top competitor on the ASP Dream Tour. The explosive regular-footer issued several critical backhand turns on two steep Lowers walls to earn one of the day's highest single-wave scores of a 9.33 out of 10. De Souza's precise backhand attack on his next wave helped him attain an impressive heat total of 17.83 out of 20 while advancing confidently in to Round 3.
"The conditions are a little bit small, but it's still really good," De Souza said. "I've been surfing Trestles everyday and to surf there with only three other guys out is great. Luckily, I was able to grab the two best waves in that heat, so I'm stoked."
The San Clemente, California transplant permanently moved to the famous surf-town from his home in Brazil and his impressive performance at his new home-break shows that De Souza has been spending his fare share of time at Lower Trestles.
"I moved here in January, just in time for the cold," De Souza said. "It's freezing and right now it's not proper Lowers, but I've learned a lot of things about Trestles that I didn't know before."
2009 is De Souza's fourth year on the ASP World Tour and he definitely noticed a big difference in competing in the four-man ASP WQS setup versus the man-on-man competition that he has become familiar with.
"The 'QS and World Tour events are so different," De Souza said. "Going from the man-on-man format with priority to a four-man heat feels like madness, especially at low tide Trestles, when there's not a lot of waves, but it's still good and it's a good warm-up for me for Tahiti since there are so many good guys in the contest."
Nat Young (Santa Cruz, CA), 17, who is a wildcard in the 6.0 Lowers Pro, displayed some of the most progressive backside surfing in the event when he blasted the day's second-highest single wave score of an amazing 9.43 out of 10 on a Lowers right. The goofy-footer did a massive backside reverse on his opening maneuver and followed the wave through to the inside to earn the score.
Ben Bourgeois (Wrightsville Beach, NC), 30, won the 6.0 Lowers Pro last year when the event was an ASP 4-Star contest, and was back in top form again today. The East Coaster convincingly won his Round 2 heat when he blasted a 17.26 out of 20 heat total.
"I got off to a good start and got a seven." Bourgeois said. "It kind of takes some pressure off when you get a good one off of the bat because you can relax a little bit more. I got a pretty good right and knew I could start to stay away from the rest of the guys. That's the kind of heat that I really wanted to have out there and it doesn't always go that way, so it was nice."
Competition is no longer the main focus for the former ASP Dream Tour surfer, but Bourgeois is still reveling in the top-level competition at the 6.0 Lowers Pro.
"I'm only doing events in the states this year and have just been traveling," Bourgeois said. "It's killer that this event is here though. I live in Carlsbad now, so it's right in my backyard and it's good to be surfing with these guys on their level because there are so many good guys in this event."
Tomorrow's action will see Round 3 run in its entirety before kicking off the opening round of the ASP Grade-2 Oakley Pro Junior.
The opening Round of 48 heat will see ASP World Tour surfer Fred Patacchia (North Shore, HI), 27, Orange County standout Micah Byrne (Huntington Beach, CA), 27, Brazilian William Cardoso (BRA) and San Clemente local and ASP World Tour surfer Chris Ward (San Clemente, CA), 30, take to the water at 8am local time.

In working with couples, my goal is to discover what each individual wants from the relationship, and collaborate to get there. Several topics that we cover in couples counseling are: improving communication skills, finding ways to compromise and resolve conflict, forgiveness, and exploring ways to create balance in the relationships. Another essential task of couples counseling is to discover how each individual expresses care and affection. Getting on the same page on how each of you gives and receives love is a great step towards deepening your connection to one another.

I enjoy working with couples we want to improve their communication. I totally believe that is the one place where we are weakest, in our ability to communicate with our partner. Learning more about ourselves actually can improve our ability to communicate with others, but then we take the next step to learn about our partner. Learning how to show appreciation, understanding and acceptance are the best parts of being together.

Just Like 9/11? Oil Spill Responders Are Getting Sick ... But Are Being Told They Don't Need Any Safety Gear
George mentions here that McClatchy News is reporting on this. In fact, McClatchy is now reporting fairly extensively on the Gulf oil 'volcano' (though they're still calling it a "spill") and don't seem to be holding back on the underlying fact that in this case, again, corporations are controlling the government ("BP withholds oil spill facts
– Ed.
May 19, 2010
The U.S. government suppressed health information after 9/11. For example, as Newsday noted in 2003:
Because the government lied about the health risks involved, many heroic first responders didn't use any real precautions, and so have gotten sick and died. And see this.
The same thing appears to be happening in connection with the Gulf oil spill.
Specifically, marine toxicologist Ricki Ott writes:
