For many car buyers, the decision to purchase often boils down to getting behind the wheel and seeing how it handles on the road.
Todd Leutheuser, executive director of Cerritos-based Southland Motor Car Dealers Association, knows that better than anyone.
That's why he's bringing to Long Beach a new twist on an auto show with the first all-test drive event Father's Day weekend.
On June 15-17, the SoCal Test Drive Expo comes to the Long Beach Convention Center, where more than 100 vehicles from Acura, Buick, Cadillac, Chevrolet, GMC, Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep, Fiat, Ford, Subaru, Toyota and Volkswagen will be available to the public for test- drives.
An estimated 15,000 to 20,000 test- drives are expected to take place during the three-day weekend, Leutheuser said.
"We call this the evolution of the auto show," he said.
The event returns to Long Beach after 15 years in Orange County. (The association had a joint venture with OC dealers that ended recently.)
"We needed to bring the show back to Long Beach, but take it to the next level," Leutheuser said. "And since we have a new venue, we have the flexibility to try something completely different in the auto show world. ... We thought that would be a great way for the public to not only touch and see the vehicles but actually drive them on the short track."
Attendees can take a spin in eco-friendly cars such as the Chevrolet Volt and third generation Prius or check out Subaru XV Crosstrek and 2013 Subaru BRZ sports car, which will be on display only.
The test drives start inside the convention center before exiting out onto Shoreline Drive and onto the course of the Toyota Grand Prix of Long Beach.
On the show floor, guests also can ride with professional 4x4 drivers on the Camp Jeep test track.
"An auto show serves a very valuable tool because you'll be able to look at multiple vehicles from multiple manufacturers all under one roof in a non-selling environment," Leutheuser said. "And that's fine and dandy, but we still don't know how that vehicle drives unless you go to the car dealership. So the manufacturers are very excited and very supportive of trying to get people into their vehicles to let them have that tactile experience."
Admission is $10. Pre-sale of admission and VIP tickets will begin June 1 at www.testdriveexpo.com, or purchase tickets at the Long Beach Convention Center box office on the day of the event. Show hours are noon to 8 p.m. on June 15; 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. on June 16; and 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. on June 17. Drivers must have a valid driver's license, be 18 years old to drive most vehicles, and pass a breathalyzer test. Visit www.testdriveexpo.com for more.

Fox Favorite Sekulow Falsely Suggests DHS Has Abandoned AZ Law Enforcement
Research ››› ››› DAVID SHERE
Frequent Fox News guest Jay Sekulow falsely claimed that the Department of Homeland Security would not accept phone calls from Arizona law enforcement seeking to verify an individual's immigration status. In fact, DHS will continue to verify immigration status over the phone, but "will not respond to the scene of state or local traffic stops or similar law enforcement encounters to enforce immigration laws unless the individual meets DHS enforcement priorities."
Hannity, Guests Distort Effects Of Change In DHS Policy Toward Arizona
Hannity: "There's A Bit Of A Constitutional Crisis" That's Being "Precipitated By The President." From Fox News' Hannity:
PETER JOHNSON JR. (Fox News legal analyst): And so now we've seen it in reaction to the Supreme Court decision that the federal government is continuing in its ways. Today, Sean, they suspended the partnership between state and local law enforcement and the federal government on many immigration enforcement activities. Suspended it. Because of this decision of the United States Supreme Court.
JAY SEKULOW (American Center for Law and Justice chief counsel): Including the phone call.
HANNITY: All right, let me go to Jay. This is the whole crux, what Peter's describing here is --
SEKULOW: Peter's right.
HANNITY: Homeland Security suspended the immigration agreements with Arizona in particular here. Now, when you couple this with the president's actions a week ago Friday when he basically said forget about the laws that Congress passed, you know, forget about the laws that past presidents have signed, I'm not going to enforce the law. So it seems to me there's a bit of a constitutional crisis, one after another, that's being precipitated by the president. Is that your take, Jay? [Fox News, Hannity, 6/26/12]
- In Fact, Change In Deportation Policy For Young Immigrants Is Consistent With Current Law. [Media Matters, 6/15/12]
Sekulow: Federal Government Is Saying To Arizona, If You Call To Check Someone's Immigration Status, "We're Not Accepting That Call." From Fox News' Hannity:
SEKULOW: Here's what you've got. Look at the situation you have, and Peter is exactly correct. So now the provision that's declared constitutional that all nine justices agreed including the most liberal members of the Supreme Court of the United States said was constitutional, which is, when you stop someone lawfully and you have reason to suspect that that person's immigration status needs to be checked, make that call to ICE. Now, the federal government's saying, Arizona, you have the right to make that call. There's only one problem. We're not accepting that call.
So now you've got a situation where -- you know, they talk about judicial activists. This is a presidential activism in an unprecedented scale. The president is issuing decrees as if he was the king. I mean, you've got legislation on the books, now they're ignoring it. The Supreme Court says that one provision is constitutional, White House says, well, we're just going to suspend our relationship, enforcement relationship with the state of Arizona, which, by the way, has the most difficult border control issue of any state in our union, but that's the one the Obama administration decides to suspend. It's politics. [Fox News, Hannity, 6/26/12]
In Fact, DHS Will Continue To Verify Immigration Status For Arizona Law Enforcement
Phoenix CBS Affiliate: DHS Will Continue To Verify An Individual's Immigration Status On Request. From KPHO, a CBS affiliate in Phoenix:
According to the Department of Homeland Security, DHS officials in Arizona have been directed not to respond to the scene of a state or local traffic stop or a similar law enforcement encounter upon the requests from state and local police officers for assistance in enforcing immigration laws unless the individual meets DHS enforcement priorities - is a convicted criminal, has been removed from the US previously and reentered unlawfully or is a recent border crosser. DHS will continue to telephonically comply with its legal requirement to verify an individual's immigration status upon request. [KPHO, 6/25/12]
Administration Official: "The Administration Will Not Allow Arizona's Immigration Priorities To Become The Department Of Homeland Security's Priorities." From CNN:
In a conference call with reporters, an administration official said the administration will not allow Arizona's immigration priorities to become the Department of Homeland Security's priorities.
The official said while DHS expected more calls from Arizona authorities, it will not increase staffing in Arizona to deal with them.
"We have limited resources. It doesn't make sense ... to spend those resources in a scattershot or random fashion. Instead they need to be focused on individuals who pose a public safety threat or challenge the integrity of our borders, and going forth that is how we anticipate handling our response to ... Arizona's law," he said.
Accordingly, he said, federal officials will not respond to the scene of state or local traffic stops or similar law enforcement encounters to enforce immigration laws unless the individual meets DHS enforcement priorities. To meet those priorities, the individual must be a convicted criminal or a recent border crosser, or must have been removed from the U.S. previously and re-entered unlawfully.
DHS will continue to comply with its legal requirement to verify, by telephone, the individual's immigration status, officials said. [CNN, 6/25/12]

Halo: Combat Evolved Anniversary
Halo: Combat Evolved Anniversary Latest News
Fans are tired of waiting for Halo on PC, and are making their own
The only Halo games to be released on PC were Halo: Combat Evolved and Halo 2, though Russians are enjoying a form of it called Halo Online, which was in closed beta back in March. It seems fans are tired of waiting for Microsoft to port a new Halo to PC, so they're making their own called Installation 01.
Microsoft announces free-to-play Halo Online, set for Russian release only
Well, the good news is that Microsoft has brought a new, first-person shooter Halo title to PC.
The not-so-good news however, is that it is presently set for a Russian release only.
PC update for Halo from Bungie, to address GameSpy shutdown
Yes, Bungie is working on Halo for PC, if you count a lone developer at the studio collaborating with fans to work on releasing a new PC patch. It's keep the Halo multiplayer platform working post-GameSpy.
Hosting service GameRanger announced they'd be filling in for GameSpy as they shut down their systems, but some game's will need to be tweaked with a patch first.
Microsoft denies Halo games release on Steam
Yesterday, the Steam registry showed Halo, Halo 2 and Halo 3 being upcoming content to be released on Steam, which raised a few eyebrows since Halo 3 had not publicly been developed on PC, and that Microsoft would be using rival Valve's digital distribution.
Halo 4 not coming to PC
Microsoft has unsurprisingly stated that Halo 4 will not be released on PC.

some thoughts:
use Google Code to host your project. That'll satisfy version control, changes, etc.
make your script auto-updating like g0tmi1k's wiffy / fakeAP_pwn scripts. His are bash scripts as well so you can use that as an example
Haven't tested the script yet, maybe i'll have some time later and provide some constructive criticism. Congrats for starting the learning process. Bash is a great starter.

A New Wave of LearningMay 2008
NOAA is well known for conducting cutting-edge science. But did you know that NOAA is blazing a new frontier in the amazing virtual world of Second Life? What appears to be an entertaining computer game conveys serious science, bringing to life esoteric research with an engaging virtual experience.
Diver's view of diverse ecosystems.
Second Life is a 3-D virtual world built and owned entirely by its residents. Created by Linden Lab of San Francisco, the web site population and visitors are growing explosively. Linden Lab claims more than five million international inhabitants and NOAA's island has had over 5,800 unique visitors representing approximately 4,000 hours since the beginning of the year.
Targeting the next generation of scientists, NOAA's site teaches visitors, called "avatars," about our changing planet through "immersive storytelling," according to Eric Hackathorn, who developed the NOAA islands with Second Life design company Aimee Weber Studios.
NOAA's Virtual Island in Second Life.
"Visitors experience environments they would not otherwise have access to," says Hackathorn, who works for NOAA's Earth System Research Laboratory in Boulder, Colo. Colorful 3-D graphics and action-packed animations help participants understand the complex science behind climate, ecosystems, and weather. In this virtual classroom, "students," can get together from all over the world and ride through the eye of a hurricane, soar through the layers of the atmosphere on a weather balloon, or view underwater creatures from the safety of a NOAA virtual submersible; all while being exposed to the real-life data and research incorporated into the adventures.
Sometimes static, other times interactive, island stops serve the visitor a comprehensive palette of knowledge like never before. For example, at the NOAA real-time weather map, avatars can walk across a map of the U. S. and experience the day's weather as it changes from region to region. This avatar is experiencing a snowy day in virtual Alaska.
Realtime weather map allows avatars to experience the current weather.
In NOAA's virtual world, melting glaciers and rising sea levels promote potential interactive discussion on climate change. Other locations raise awareness about natural hazards such as tsunamis, hurricanes, wild fires, and oil spills. Effects of the changing environment are vividly portrayed by stops such as the one that informs the visitor about harmful algal blooms.
NOAA is acquiring additional real estate for future development to continue the promotion of NOAA products and services. This property is located in SciLands, a virtual continent and user community within Second Life, devoted exclusively to science and technology. NOAA, as one of the first government-sponsored, Earth-science islands, was key to establishing the continent in collaboration with universities, museums, and other government agencies such as NASA, the Environmental Protection Agency, and National Library of Medicine. There are now more than 25 science and technology-related organizations participating in SciLands. Its members hold regular meetings in Second Life where they share ideas, help each other, and plan future projects.
A virtual harmful algal bloom educates visitors about real hazards.
Visit Scilands for a free account to hop onboard a NOAA balloon, aircraft, or sea vessel, or just walk, fly, or swim through our virtual classroom to unearth new facts about our planet — the one and only NOAA strives to protect and preserve.

Evaluating Web Sites for Legal Compliance: Basics for Web Site Legal Auditing
Scarecrow Press, 2002 - Law - 105 pages
As the World Wide Web increases in importance as a tool for commerce of all kinds, so too do the legal and auditing issues. Soon it will not be enough for a Web site to comply with basic security features; sites will need to be properly configured from a legal point of view. The authors, both lawyers, explore the need for a basic legal framework for analyzing Web pages (the fundamental structure of the Web) and describe a systematic but flexible legal auditing tool for accomplishing such an analysis. The first section discusses domain names their origin, justification, types, purposes, and local and international procedures and uses. The next part provides an orientation to intellectual property, both first generation issues (trademarks, service marks, logos, copyright, etc.) and second generation issues (deep-thinking, metatags, and framing). Other sections introduce the reader to the legal implications of hypertext links, shrink-wrap and click-wrap agreements, issues of privacy and security, disclaimers, and the problem of jurisdiction over international transactions. This guide was written specifically to assist Web page developers, attorneys, and managers in assessing and correcting potential legal problems before they occur."

The Federalist 's Alexander suggested Kerry responsible for soldier deaths
In a May 1 column [1], The Federalist's Mark Alexander claimed that the recent spike in casualties among American soldiers in Iraq coincides with what he described as Senator John Kerry's increased focus on Iraq and expression of "dissenting views on our mission" there. Alexander wrote:
In the year since the cessation of major hostilities, America's resolve in our war against Jihadistan has been under relentless assault -- not so much by the Jihadis themselves, but by the political ambitions of Demo-presidential contenders and their Leftmedia minions...
In the 15 months since the coalition's invasion of Iraq, 736 American service personnel have been killed. But more than a fourth of those troops have been killed in just the last two months -- a period coinciding with the end of the Democrat presidential primary. What, you ask, is our point? Merely that this is precisely the moment when John Kerry's dissenting views on our mission in Iraq became the central focus of his political campaign -- as broadcast around the world.
Mark Alexander is executive editor and publisher of The Federalist [2], which calls itself "the Internet's Journal of Record for the conservative revolution inspired by Ronald Reagan," and is a member group of The Heritage Foundation's conservative Internet community Townhall.com. Alexander's column appears on both Townhall.com [3] and The Federalist's website [4]. The Federalist also sponsors PatriotPetitions.com [5], an online petition drive to counter what it calls, according to a report in the March 3, 2003, Washington Times, "anti-American" and "anti-war" petitions and ad campaigns organized by "Hollywood and academic leftists."

For many, the answer to a financial dilemma can come from asking the right questions. To help, a public interest organization has come up with four quarterly booklets, with worksheets and self-assessment information, for those considering personal loans.
The first, "Understanding Personal Loans," helps potential borrowers find answers to six important questions:
• Is a personal loan for me?
• Can I afford a loan?
• What happens when I apply?
• What happens if I'm late with a payment?

Games Twisted By Removing The First Letter

Somehow, the concept of deleting the first letter of a game title to create a new game came up... and a bunch of us sat around brainstorming what kind of games would result.

Solvang Man Arrested After Going on Tire Slashing Spree
Solvang - February 26th, 2014
A Solvang man is in custody after going on a tire slashing spree in Solvang which included six United States mail delivery trucks. Santa Barbara County Sheriff's Deputies arrested 23-year-old Dakota Serge at approximately 12:45 a.m. this morning, February 26. Sheriff's Deputies responded to the 400 block of Alisal Road after a passerby called 9-1-1 to report seeing a man slashing tires in the back parking lot of a business.
When Sheriff's Deputies arrived, they discovered Serge crouched near a car and tires slashed on 11 vehicles in the parking lot. Six of the vehicles were U.S. Mail delivery trucks assigned to the Solvang Post Office. In all, 35 tires were slashed and 22 of those were on the mail delivery trucks.
Sheriff's Deputies also discovered an American flag, three Danish flags and a California flag, apparently stolen, stuffed in the sleeves of Serge's jacket. The flags had been cut down from flagpoles at several businesses in the immediate area.
Serge was transported to the Lompoc Jail and is charged with felony vandalism, petty theft and public intoxication. The case is under investigation by the United States Postal Service.
The Sheriff's Office appreciates the citizen who called 9-1-1 right away to report the suspicious activity which allowed deputies to respond quickly and arrest the suspect.

A Lower Low for Patients with High Blood Pressure
A healthy blood pressure has long been associated with decreased risk of certain diseases. Now, researchers theorize that lowering systolic blood pressure below the currently recommended level could lead to a greater reduction of risk, and Case Western Reserve University School of Medicine will be part of a multi-center clinical trial to test that theory.
The School of Medicine has received a $14.7 million, nine-year contract from the National Institutes of Health (NIH) to be one of five institutions to lead a trial to determine if lowering systolic blood pressure in hypertensive patients without diabetes to below currently recommended levels can reduce the incidence of cardiovascular and kidney disease and slow cognitive decline.
Case Western Reserve will head a Clinical Center Network consisting of investigators from its School of Medicine and six other Northeast Ohio clinical centers: Cleveland Clinic, Louis Stokes Cleveland VA Medical Center, MetroHealth Medical Center, Northeast Ohio Health Centers, St. Vincent's Charity Hospital and University Hospitals, as well as the Ohio State University College of Medicine. It will be directed by Jackson T. Wright Jr., MD, PhD, professor of medicine at Case Western Reserve and director of the Clinical Hypertension Program at University Hospitals Case Medical Center.
Wright says the study will evaluate whether treating patients to a systolic blood pressure of less than 120 mmHg reduces the risk of cardiovascular and kidney disease, or age-related cognitive decline, more than the usually recommended level of 140 mmHg. "We suspect that treating to the lower level of 120 mmHg will result in fewer cardiovascular and kidney complications. However, this needs to be proven," he adds.
The results of this study will grow the small body of evidence surrounding this hypothesis. Called SPRINT (Systolic Blood Pressure Intervention Trial), the study findings will be used to reevaluate the optimal blood pressure for patients and have the potential to establish new guidelines for health care providers. SPRINT will enroll more than 9,000 participants, age 55 or older, with systolic blood pressure of at least 130 mmHg. All participants will have a history of cardiovascular disease or be at high risk for heart disease by having at least one additional risk factor (except diabetes); between 40 and 50 percent will have chronic kidney disease. Blacks and other minorities will comprise at least 40 percent of the study. Once enrollment begins in October, the Case Western Reserve network will recruit between 1,500 and 1,800 patients over the next two years.

I think that people of faith are often very slippery about what they mean by the word faith. In this post I argue for why this definition I have worked out (or something very similar) should be seen as standard:
Faith is willfully committing (whether explicitly or implicitly) to a relationship (or relationships) of trust, loyalty, hope, and/or belief (a) beyond perceived rational warrant, (b) against perceived predominance of counter evidence of untrustworthiness, and/or (c) against all possible future counter-evidence that may undermine currently perceived evidence of trustworthiness.

This place has a terrible service department!!! I took my atv in there to get tuned and fluids changed. Nothing was wrong with the atv never leaked, nothing. I get the atv home all the sudden it's leaking from the carburetor. I call them up and they said to bring it in and they'll fix it for a fee. This is literally right after I brought it home from there shop. I ended up taking the four-wheeler to a real professional and actually seen that the idiots at Anderson put the carburetor gasket in wrong!!! I mean its something that only goes in one way, and they still manged to screw it up! I have bad-mouthed them to all my friends and on Facebook. Obviously, they haven't a clue.

OneSearch is very useful to look up scholarly article citations (use quick keyword search author surname key words in title, or type in the article Doi if your citation offers a Doi), or do a simple keyword search on topic.

I have lurked since January when I found out I was pregnant with my son. Thanks to this group, DH (dear husband) and I set up boundaries for out-of-state visitors, but no one visited us. Both my mother and my mother-in-law ruined the day my son was born but my mom was handled by me.
DH (dear husband) is in the military and we are living states away from both sets of families. After explaining to MIL (mother-in-law) about the fact that there would be no updates until after the baby was born many times before the day of my induction, she called the hospital after waiting 12 hours to say she was going to bed and wanted to know what was going on. My son was delivered via csection after a failed induction.
After a month of me stewing (DH had gotten over it and was more upset it still upset me), DH (dear husband) had finally brought it up with his mother over Skype "Mom we wanted to discuss you calling the hospital during the delivery." MIL (mother-in-law) said "Everything I do upsets you (DH). You know what?" and hung up.
She then called 30 minutes later, screamed at DH (dear husband) and hung up again. Repeat 2 more times, with the former being DH (dear husband) who hung up. DH (dear husband) did not discuss exactly what they talked about but I heard him basically telling her to respect our boundaries. She told him that she does not feel like part of the family (she had skyped with DH (dear husband) and LO (little one) every week since he has been born), she was upset because we asked her not to share LO (little one) Halloween pictures on her profile (and she did post a passive aggressive status saying that she will delete her profile because some people want her not to share her joy), and if DH (dear husband) does not let her do what she wants with our LO, she does not want to talk to him. Oh and my favorite was that her calling the hospital should have never been brought up ever and the excuse that DH (dear husband) told me that she justified calling the hospital was that my mom was calling her the whole day wanting updates-she called at 2 am her time.
Today DH (dear husband) was at work, and his aunt called the house phone. I was napping with my LO, saw the name, hestitated to answer it, but did. She asked me what was going on? I played stupid and asked "with what". She said "With my sister." I told her that it had nothing to do with her. She then told me "that it did involve her, it involves my sister and my godson. My sister is upset and said that he told her that she was not going to see the baby and said that she was not part of the family (he used the extended family bit). She is going for another surgery and she is scared." I told her that I was not going to discuss it and she said she was going to call my DH.
His mom had surgery done 5 days after I gave birth and apparently needs another one. Her past surgery was her way of guilt tripping her other children as well. For example: her daughter was called into work during Sandy, and when her daughter refused to stay home and not go in to work, MIL (mother-in-law) told her "Can't you see that you are kiling me physically?"
My DH (dear husband) told his mother exactly what I wanted him to say, and even more. Now he wants me to talk to his mother and explain how I feel with the numerous boundary stomps. I told him that I am done with his drama queen mom and that I am not going to allow our son to deal with her craziness and guilt trips when he is older He wants me to explain my concerns about our son with his mom. He told me that he feels that he is not being respected by his mom and I, and that his mom and I are both stubborn.
Of course there are numerous examples of MIL (mother-in-law) being manipulative and throwing guilt trips at DH, but I gave the most current problem. I feel that she has an emotional incestious relationship with my husband. One example was that she asked my husband to cuddle with her when we went back home and stayed with her for a week (I will never do that again).
So ladies, what are your opinions?

Telecom network equipment maker DragonWave Inc
Cash-strapped DragonWave (Ottawa, Canada), which has been trying to reduce costs since it acquired Nokia Siemens's microwave technology business last June, said last month that it would cut costs further but did not specify what the measures were.
The company cut 116 jobs in Ottawa and Israel in 2012.
According to the renewed deal, Nokia Siemens (Helsinki, Finland) will make an immediate cash payment of $13.8 million to DragonWave, clearing the contingent receivable on the Ottawa-based company's balance sheet.
DragonWave said the companies have ended the Italian services agreement, under which Nokia Siemens provided research and development and certain other services to DragonWave since June 2012.
DragonWave expects operating costs to fall by about 3 million euros per quarter. Nokia Siemens will take on additional commitments and costs.
DragonWave, which uses microwave technology to move data between cellular towers and telecom networks, warned in March that fourth-quarter revenue would miss its forecast due to lower sales in the unit.
The unit contributed $25.6 million, or about 67 percent, to DragonWave's revenue in the third quarter.
DragonWave said on Wednesday it expects to pay a termination fee of about 7 million euros over the balance of fiscal year 2014.
The company said it would continue to be the preferred supplier of packet microwave and related products to Nokia Siemens, and both companies would jointly coordinate technology development activities.
Shares of DragonWave closed at C$1.60 on the Toronto Stock Exchange on Tuesday.

In BT4 because of the new bluetooth stack (bluez 4 instead of bluez 3.x) the tool carwhisperer doesn't work anymore.
It is possible to start it, it will connect to the headset (if default PIN was set correctly), but it doesn't record anything (it fills up the output file with zeros).
Maybe I screwed up something with the settings (however this is highly unlikely), but you know too that bluez 4 has no documentation at all, so figuring out how to change settings is really difficult.
I would highly recommend (if the newer kernel still makes this possible) to return to bluez 3.x.
Thank you,

Apologies if this is a FAQ.
I currently have m0n0wall (1.231) installed on a PC that I'm about to
either replace one of the NICs in or replace entirely. Whichever, I am
looking to keep the current configuration.
I have had a quick look in the configuration XML and found the
<interfaces> node. Once I have determined the interface names
allocated by the (new) system for the NICs, I'm guessing that all I
need to do is adjust the <if> nodes accordingly. Is this correct or is
there something else that I need to do in conjunction with this?
One last question. The replacement PC has USB, currently using floppy.
What do I need to do to move the configuration to USB and get m0n0wall
to read from there instead?
Appreciate any help/pointers.
TIA and regards

FRIENDS AND FITNESS ... The two keys to successful aging are friends and fitness, says gerontologist Esther Koch, who consults on Medicare and other aging advisory services through her firm Encore Management. "First and foremost is building and maintaining a social support network, which is primarily for most people in the family, but it can also be family by choice," Koch told Stanford Business Re:Think, an online publication of the Graduate School of Business. "Your spouse is your most important relationship, but you can't ignore other people in your life," Koch said. "The other thing that is key is physical exercise. Exercise is so beneficial to your physical, mental and emotional well-being. It's the best prescription for health that a doctor can give you. But the social network is really the elixir of life."
CELLS AND AGING ... Some secrets, at the cellular level, of the aging process are explored in a study recently published by Thomas Rando, a Stanford professor of neurology and neurological sciences and chief of the Veterans Affairs Palo Alto Health Care System's neurology service. A chemical code scrawled on histones — the protein husks that coat DNA in every animal or plant cell — determines which genes in that cell are turned on or turned off. Rando's team identified characteristic differences in "histone signatures" between stem cells from the muscles of young mice and old mice. The team also distinguished histone-signature differences between quiescent and active stem cells in the muscles of young mice. "We've been trying to understand both how the different states a cell finds itself in can be defined by the markings on the histones surrounding its DNA and to find an objective way to define the 'age of a cell,'" said Rando, who is also director of Stanford's Glenn Laboratories for the Biology of Aging and deputy director of the Stanford Center on Longevity. The study was published June 27 in the journal Cell Reports.

The Mets could not capitalize on the worst bullpen and one of the worst teams in the majors as they fell to the Diamondbacks 4-3 in 14 innings. It was their sixth loss in seven games on this road trip.
Jon Niese only last five innings, allowing three runs on six hits and six strikeouts. His opposite number in Dan Haren also had a similar night.
Five of the seven runs scored by both teams came on home runs. Angel Pagan hit a leadoff blast and Rod Barajas added one in the sixth to tie the game. Mark Reynolds, Chris Young and Rusty Ryal each hit solo shots for the D-backs.
The Mets got their other run after Pagan led off with a double in the third inning. Carlos Beltran then drove him with his first RBI of the season.
Those would be the only runs scored through the first six innings as both bullpens were lights-out, or both offenses were anemic, depending on how you look at it.
With the game going into extra innings, both sides had to dip deeply into their bullpens. This meant the Mets brought in Oliver Perez, who had just been activated Wednesday, in the 12th inning.
Perez began by allowing a leadoff hit and a walk. Any Mets fan who was still awake surely had to be thinking they were going to see the old Ollie. However, he managed to get out of the inning with no damage done. He struck out Kelly Johnson in the 13th, but hit the next batter. Jerry Manuel did not hesitate to relieve Perez.
Fernando Nieve, who has been very vulnerable lately, came into the game with Francisco Rodriguez the last pitcher in the bullpen. Nieve got two outs to end the 13th. In the 14th, however, he allowed a leadoff double and then intentionally walked Miguel Montero. After striking out Reynolds, he surrendered the game-winning hit.
So, despite a team meeting with Manuel, the Mets could not gain ground on the Braves or the Phillies who both lost. The Mets are just three games over .500 and really need to stop the bleeding.
The increasingly erratic Hisanori Takahashi will take the mound in Los Angeles as the Mets take on the Dodgers for a four-game series.

text: First of, let me say I LOVE unity3d! It really removes a lot of the hassle and you can dive straight into game development and not spend years writing your own engine (I wouldn't know where to start) or indeed, like with Ogre3d/Irrlicht, connecting all them libraries and stuff- unity should be called "liberation" - since it liberates game designers from all the BS. This game was designed with the 3d gamer in mind- so no silly problems with shadows/effects being at screen depth- the game will work with all 3d drivers like iz3d, nvidia 3d vision and tridef (as will most other Unity3d games), - of course, it will also work in boring 2d for those without 3d glasses/displays- however, invest in some 1$ red/cyan glasses - even that will make it awesomer. some screens: screenshots (they're in stereopair format since they were taken using the iz3d driver) if you are interested in any aspects of the source code don't be shy and ask- this would not be possible without all the useful code I found on these forums.

Alejandro Ingelmo Goes Soul Searching
In Glee and American Horror Story cocreator Ryan Murphy's The New Normal (NBC), a young waitress, Goldie, flees the Midwest with her eight-year-old daughter—to the chagrin of her brassy, conservative, wildly xenophobic grandmother (Ellen Barkin, incredibly)—and becomes a surrogate for a wealthy Beverly Hills gay couple, played by The Book of Mormon's Andrew Rannells and The Hangover's Justin Bartha. Despite coinciding with a very gay-rights-relevant election season, Murphy insists, "It's not propaganda. I just want to entertain people, to create characters everyone will love. If in the process people become informed or changed, then we're lucky." And love them you will: Barkin's razor-tongued sparring with nearly everyone on the show—including The Real Housewives of Atlanta star NeNe Leakes as Rannells' character's assistant—is solid gold, but it's the endearing moments between Goldie, her daughter, and two dedicated, loving men who simply want to experience the joy of parenthood that will move viewers most, politically or otherwise. —Seth Plattner
If the fact that Spanx inventor Sara Blakely has sold enough suck-it-in-wear to join the billionaires' club is any indication, fashion has been on a formfitting kick for the last several years: Skinny jeans, bandage dresses, you get the picture. That's all about to change, though, as the silhouette that went down the runway for fall was unapologetically oversize: At Céline, coats so big they looked like children's dress-up props. At Gucci, pants so flared they swung into a room 30 seconds before the wearer. At Marc Jacobs, Cat in the Hat toppers big enough to take a catnap in. And unlike seasons past, these exaggerated pieces weren't shown in contrast to slimmer separates. At Proenza Schouler, for instance, a boxy coat was balanced with equally generous pleat-front, wide-leg trousers, and at Marc Jacobs, those aforementioned hats were merely the icing on already larger-than-life ensembles. Should you need some coaxing into this new silhouette, remember the old cliché about leaving something to the imagination. Now's the time to showcase the excellent collarbone, the dainty wrist. (At the very least, your circulatory system will thank you.) —Amanda FitzSimons

Do you think your friend would like to know that DDS has this item? Just fill in the following information and we will let them know!
I bought this dress for my 11 year old daughter to perform a liturgical Christmas dance. The dress is very pretty with a long flowing skirt that twirls beautifully during her turns. The skirt is quite sheer, so she has to also wear a nude leotard and white tights or shorts for coverage.
Was this review helpful to you? YES (
My daughter doesn't dance...but she is obsessed with Disney's Frozen and is obsessed with being Elsa for Halloween. Elsa costumes are sold out EVERYWHERE with no signs of restocking. So I went on the hunt for a dress that I could alter. This is is nearly PERFECT. Thank you to the other reviewer who posted the photo of her adorable little girl in the purple dress - I was able to see that the shape and cut of the dress was perfect for Elsa. The light blue color is a pale cornflower blue - a little different than the light turquoise I was looking for but it works. I'll sew aqua sequins on the bodice and make a cape. The dress by itself already looks like an Elsa dress and my daughter is in love - she won't take it off and when we force her to, she carries it around, sleeps with it... Thanks also to the other reviewer who said it fits very snug - I sized up and got the 6-7X for my 43 inch tall, 37 lb 5yo. It fits exactly like I want: with a bit of growing room (I'll have to hem it but no big deal - the fabric won't fray so you could also cut it but I want to preserve the extra length for growth). The skirt drapes and flows beautifully - it is amazing when twirled - it's a full circle. My only beefs: the front is self-lined which is nice, but the rest isn't. That means the skirt is a little see-through in this light color. It will need a slip for sure. Also, the material can snag - so keep it well away from velcro or anything snaggy!! Other than that, this is perfect for what we need it for! Quick shipping - thank you!!
I love it the way it flows is beautiful.
I bought this dress in red for my very tall 10 year old. It is very simple and beautiful. I love the look of it in general but the torso is very snug-fitting, enough that you can tell which type of bra she is wearing! Other than that, I would recommend this to anyone wanting a classic look. I just wish that the torso material was a little thicker or looser.
My church uses these and they are very comfortable and I would recommend this to a friend.
If my dancers were to life their legs? is there a leotard attachment???? Thanks!
This dress does not have attached bottoms.- DDS Customer Service (01/27/2014)
There is not an attached leotard and the skirt is quite sheer, so you need a nude leotard with tights or booty shorts for coverage. - Ptptmom (12/02/2014)

Going to Santa Teresa at the end of the month and was wondering the best deal or best local surf shop to rent boards from.
Printable View
Going to Santa Teresa at the end of the month and was wondering the best deal or best local surf shop to rent boards from.
Also, what are the fun breaks Santa Teresa. Not looking for anything insane but doen't matter if its beach break or point or reef, just something fun for a week and consistant. I am staying at Otro Lado if that helps with location.
Playa Carmen is a sweet break. Good on high tide going out. At low tide theres a shelf that sticks up 4 to 6 ft that has a tidal pool full of fish and a yellow bellied seas snake (was there the last time in 05). Playa hermosa and Bongo to the north are great. There's Cedros in Cabuya across the mountain. It's a left that has 1 take off point and is very crowded at times. the bottom is really sketchy jagged protruding rocks.
Sounds cool but do I need to fear the sea snakes and that means its un-surfable at low tide, right? And if so then is there a beach break to surf low tide at. I'm not planning on surfing Feb much so I would like to get as much in as possible. Thanks
the sea snake was in a tidal pool. there's meaner critters to worry about. My favorite spot in Mal Pais area is Zanaida's Lefts. she had a bunch of cabins in front of a killer break. here's a big one there.
Attachment 6772
Attachment 6773
Did you bring or rent boards there and do I need reef booties or is it not too bad. Also, where did you rent boards and what are those pictures of, I think I'm probably just looking wrong.
I always brought my board. I'd bring reef booties to access the tidal pools due to small barnacles. I'd bring an umbrella for shade, my wrist rocket, and 200' of rope for when I mess up in rental cars. most everything else you can get there.
When I was camping on Playa Carmen, I had a 6'10" secret spot surfboard I'd rent. but no one liked it. said it was too small. I left it with a german guy that lives 50 meters from franks place. it's over 20 years old now but you could ask him if it's still there. He's a good guy to know. His name is Andreas Schneider.
I'm not renting a car, but Playa Carmen is walking distance from where I'm staying. Can you surf there at low tide? What are those pictures of? And also, if the 6 10 was too small how big are the waves there, or how small or mushy.
it can get big. I was camping there for a month and thought I had it wired. My camp was in the circle of palms when you turn right at the end of the road. I waited for out going tide and almost made it over the top of 12' face. it beat me with my board and twisted me in odd shapes. it must have look bad from the beach, cause when I stumbled out of the water, people looked shocked I walked out. It looks easy but, sneaker sets come in a lot. the only time I almost drowned was there. I was out, this thing broke out on the horizon and nothing but a giant wall of white water rushed in. I turned and paddled like hell but was overtaken. I was pushed in front of the white water and it started walling up again. as I pushed down the nose and took a deep breath, I saw a drop of water come off the front and it went right down my wind pipe. I was wheezing and gasping as I dropped down the face with a death grip on my board. if I'da fallen off I'd be dead. After that, I always thought that was how Eddie Aikow died.

Insert somewhat humorous cage-fighting reference here
Cheap plastic bottle holsters might hold onto your gear on the road, but the burly Blackburn Mountain Water Bottle Cage was built for pedal-churning rides in the mountains. Oversized aluminum framing secures your water bottle tight so it won't go flying when you float over a rock garden at mach looney.
- Tough, oversized aluminum cage
- Several colors to choose from

It's $5 and does what it says!
Does the job!
Great quality for the price. Have purchased several and have no complaints.
rock solid!!
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
Looks good, well made, does the job at a great price!! what else can you asked for??
Holds Bottles
Great product. It is light and cheap and gets the job done. My bottle stays put no matter the terrain.
Light, Cheap, Works
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
Mounted easily--holds bottles well and matches my bike. these are actually lighter than a lot of the carbon or plastic ones on the market.
Cheap and good!
High quality cage for a cheap price! This cage keeps bottles secure even when riding over rocky terrain. Your bottle will not fly out!
caged right
this keeps my bottle caged
Classic Cage
- Familiarity: I gave it as a gift but have feedback to share
It is versatile, tough and simple. I put it on my kids bike, great price.
A classic!
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
Classic bottle cage. Worked well 20 years ago - works well now!
I prefer my cinetic cage, but my lady wanted this one and likes it. Make sure you have a bottle that fits this size, as they are clamping it right down and fitting a different size bottle/hard plastic bottle in this cage is next near to impossible. If you have a soft plastic bottle/right size bottle you are set with a timelessly designed classic!
Silver water cage
very stable easy to install just 2 bolts and a L wrench to tight
Does exactly what it's supposed to do
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
A simple cage for water bottles. I found larger water bottles like the Camelback insulated bottles were a bit difficult to get in and out of the cage while on the bike. Otherwise, works great.
You can't go wrong at this price!!
- Familiarity: I've used it once or twice and have initial impressions
The standard / original style water bottle cage offered by Blackburn which has stood the test of time - You can't really go wrong at this price point!! It does what it states ...
Does it's job at a great price!
- Familiarity: I've used it once or twice and have initial impressions
It's a super cheap water bottle cage, but does everything you would need...so basically it's great for holding your water. Really bright and colorful.
Cheap and Colorful
I'm not a fan of spending money on water bottle cages, but I like to leave the Camelbak at home and my bike needed some color. $5 and it does exactly what I need it to.
simple and cheap
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
Pretty standard, doesn't cost hardly anything and holds your water!
Simple and effective
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
Very nice bottle cage, hold bottle snug so far. Easy to mount on the bike also. Bought black and a red but the red was almost pink but it was for my daughter so it worked out.
Can't go wrong.
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
There's no need for fancy bottle cage design; this classic cage works great.
Your Standard Water Bottle Cage
Does it's job pretty damn good
Perfect and Simple!
- Familiarity: I've used it once or twice and have initial impressions
I was looking for a simple bottle cage for my bike, and this one is perfect! I ordered the blue one, it is a lighter blue in color than seen here.

Kurt Hoffman has it right when he says local ocean kayak fishing is an affordable adventure that offers world-class angling in our inshore waters off La Jolla.
Hoffman, a financial advisor, can see fellow kayak anglers on the water from his Prospect Street office with a Pacific Ocean view. Hoffman is more of an occasional weekend water warrior than an everyday fisherman because of his work duties. But thanks to his office view, he always knows when the bite is on or when the squid are being wrapped by lit-up commercial seiners. In mid-November, just as the commercial squid fishery was reaching its yearly quota, Hoffman landed a 41-pound yellowtail on a squid from his kayak after he and some other kayak anglers were gifted free scoops of market squid from a commercial seiner off La Jolla.
"They (commercial squid fishermen) were more interested in what we were doing out there in the dark in our kayaks and in their paths when they were setting nets," Hoffman said.
That's a fair question. Hoffman and other hardy kayakers launch before 5 a.m. usually to make bait, whether it's squid or Pacific green mackerel. Considering the increase of great white shark sightings off our coast in recent years, it takes stones the size of coconuts to peddle or paddle out in the dark like that.
On that mid-November trip on his Hobie pedal kayak, Hoffman couldn't get his squid bait to the bottom on his dropper loop rig due to the huge amount of mackerel feeding on squid. But a pod of dolphins busted through the feeding frenzy and dispersed the mackerel. That allowed Hoffman to reach the bottom and hook what turned out to be a trophy yellowtail, his second in less than a year that topped 40 pounds. Last December he landed a forktail that went 52.1 pounds. Hoffman removes the gills and bleeds his fish on the water to preserve the fish for sushi-making, so the actual weight of his catches is 2- to 3 pounds heavier than they weigh on the beach.
"I've found winter yellowtail are typically to be the largest of the year," Hoffman said. "To catch two yellowtail over 40 pounds in a year for a very part-time fisherman is pretty amazing. I'm not saying it's the time I'm putting in or the techniques I use. I'm saying it's the health of the fishery and being able to get out with the lucky jacket my wife made for me and to be there in the right place at the right time."
It turns out there is plenty of water myths regarding the state of our yellowtail fishery, but in terms of actual studies and reliable catch data, there is none.
Owyn Snodgrass, a fisheries research biologist who specializes in pelagic fish with NOAA's La Jolla-based Southwest Fisheries Science Center, says there are some "very preliminary studies" going on regarding our local yellowtail. But he'd like to see more.
"We need more research on such a cool fish, an amazing resource," Snodgrass said. "We just don't know much about it, and it's right in front of our home."
Snodgrass said Hoffman's theory about winter yellowtail being larger doesn't really hold because plenty of large yellowtail are caught in the summer off San Diego. He said he's working with a graduate student who is attempting to get grant money to do a more elaborate tagging study on local, homeguard yellowtail and their movements.
"Potentially, these studies could be big," Snodgrass said. "But there's no directed commercial fishing for them, so there is no funding to study them, only academic-based research."
In the meantime, Hoffman and others, including Snodgrass, who is an avid angler, will do their own research. And when Hoffman looks out his La Jolla office window and sees more than a few kayaks bobbing in the yellowtail grounds, he's there for more research . . . and sushi.

If gallstones are in the bile ducts, endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) may be used to locate and remove the stones before or during gallbladder surgery.
During the procedure, your throat will be sprayed with a local anesthetic. You will be given medication through an IV to help you relax. An endoscope will be used. It is a long, thin, flexible, lighted tube connected to a computer and TV monitor. It will be passed through your mouth and guided through the stomach and into the small intestine. Air is used to inflate the small intestine, so you may feel bloated during and after the procedure. A special dye will be injected. It will temporarily stain the ducts in the biliary system. The affected bile duct is then located. An instrument on the endoscope is used to open the duct. The stone is then captured in a tiny basket and removed with the endoscope.
Occasionally, a person who has had a cholecystectomy is diagnosed with a gallstone in the bile ducts weeks, months, or even years after the surgery. The ERCP procedure is usually successful in removing the stone.
