Money may also have an impact on wether or not a young person gets involved with alcohol and drugs. Reffering to the "Geographical location example, it may be harder for young people in a lower class/working class area to be able to afford to use, whereas a young person from a more upperclass area may have more access to be able to finance drug use. If a young person from a lower class area doesn't have access to endless amounts of money, they may have to get a job themselves, or more often than not, have to commit crimes in order to obtain the money.
How a young person is brought up within the family structure may also contribute to possible alcohol or drug use. For example, if a child is born into a family where drug use is prevalent, more often than not they may be stuck in that same cycle when they are going through young adulthood. Also, if the family are education on alcohol and drugs themselves, and are able to pass on the knowledge to the young person, so they are able to make an educated decision about wether or not to start using/try drugs and alcohol.
Family support can determine wether or not a young person continues education while using alcohol or drugs, or even using drugs and alcohol at all.
A young persons peers, doesn't neccesarily mean they are friends. A young persons peer could be someone they work with, or someone who they have met through other people. However, if there is someone who might not be within their normal friendship group who is using drugs and alcohol, it might also be a gateway for the young person to be able to experiment with drug use also.
Friendship groups may also have an impact on wether or not a young person gets involved with the drug and alcohol scene. If they have friends that are willing to try, or already use, their chances of also wanting to try it or get involved are higher, than if they had friends who didn't want anything to do with drugs or alcohol at all.
Socio-econmic status, like geographical location and money, can be linked to drug and alcohol use because it is based on "class" and status within society or community.
Geographical location can have impact on a young persons drug and alcohol use due to it being more accessable, or accepted, which can also be connected to Socio-econmonic status. For example, in Footscray, because it's know as more of a lower class/working class society, its almost expected that there would be more young people abusing drugs and alcohol, than say young people from Toorak, which is known for its upperclass. These conclusions are also stigmatised, and dont neccesarily reflect what actually happens.
Cultural perceptions is wide and varying in terms of encouraging young people to experiment in drug and alcohol use. For example, the more older generation of people still view drugs as evil and highly dangerous, whereas within the more younger generation its alot more exepted and accessible. Sub-group cultures also have an impact. Some society perceptions are that young people who are into the "RAVE" music scene are automatically givin the lable of "Pill Poppers", or that young people who like music festivals are "Stoners", whereas thats not always the case.
Employment can determine income, socio-econmic status and geographical location. It may also have an impact on how accessible drugs may be, due to having more disposable income, than young people who may have to steal or even prostitute themselves to obtain enough money to purchase Alcohol and drugs.

Karan Johar, co-chairman of the FICCI Frames 2013, says the focus on the Rs 100 crore benchmark, is limiting the growth and content of Bollywood films at a time when the aim must be to mint Rs 1,000 crore from one film.
"Rs 100 crore is restricting the limits of our self. We must add one more zero to the Rs 100 crore films and take it to the next level. Rs 100 crore is limiting the growth and content (of films). The possibilities are endless, and we must focus on Rs 1,000 crore mark instead," Karan told the PTI.
"In next five years, we will be in a position... it might sound aspirational, but there is a possibility that we may have achieved all that," added the filmmaker. He spoke Monday at a press conference of FICCI Frames 2013 - an entertainment and business summit of the Federation of Indian Chambers of Commerce and Industry (FICCI) starting Wednesday in Mumbai.

PacManson was made with the sculpt feature of Cinema 4D R14, it begins with sculpting, followed by bodypainting. Rendered in Vray, this took from start to finish almost 5 hours..
I enjoyed making this, and i hope you enjoy watching it. Bodypaint is a simple yet very powerful module, that can give your renders and models an exclusive custom look. Its basic setup is exactly like Adobe Photoshop layers, and the painting on the model itself, can be controlled easily with layer modes, and filters.

I am seriously under the impression that something is wrong with my car brcause i know it can't be my driving ...here is my delima...
My mods are these....the 3/6 connector thingy and the silencer removed....thats it...so here is my problem...i am searching through my slips to find the best one yet....
rt .951
60' 2.098
330' 6.212
1/8 [email protected]
1000' 12.503
1/4 [email protected]
i have 27 launches now and that is the best i can come up with...
my launch tecnique is as follows....hold revs at 3000 wait for second yellow...floor it and drop the clutch at 5500...i get a pretty good pull off but that is the best time i can get....it is pretty consistant, but not what i should be getting....I have 17" ADR M Classic Wheels with 215 45 r17 nankangs.. my car was purchased with 9000mi on it and now has 18600mi..i am wondering if the wheels are adding up to the difference? I can't seem to find the weight of the wheels but according to ups they are 29lbs a piece...that seems a bit heavy to me...i know that the original owner had to have 1st driven gear replaced but i really don't feel that there is any problem although the clutch doesn't seems as tight as it used to...i am getting pretty frustrated and don't really see the point of going back to the track to run the same times and put more wear on if i can't beat that time and there is no use adding and mods until i can get the correct times for stock which i pretty much am not.....should i try it with 16" wheels?
Would that help my 60' time? i know i am launching correctly so i am just really not happy with....ok i will quit rambling but any imput of things i should have checked would be greatly appreciated.....

If you have only those mods, its as easy as this :
LAUNCH BETTER -- if you get that 2.0 down to a 1.8 you'll have the time that u seek.....Before I had any real power mods, I have the 18 inch rims i have now, and I was getting LOW 1.8's

It not the tires. I consistantly run great times 1.75 - 1.85 60' with my 17'' Prodrives WITH 215/45/17' I also ran 13.3 in the 1/4 mile running these wheels with just Turboxs stage 2 Setup.
You need to get a better launch. If done correctly you should pull 1.80s and that will definately help your times. Also run you car to 7k between shifts.
Also down here in S. Florida - heat/humidity you will run a little slow. In stock form you should be able to pull low to mid 9s in the 1/8 mile and low to mid 14s in the 1/4 mile. A good 60' time is how it happens.

Well, unless it's just the track here i Jacksonville that sucks i can't see how else to do it....hard launch at 4000,5000,6000,redline....Slipping the clutch slowly,quickly,you name it i have tried it....we only run 1/8 here is jax but in gainesville we can run 1/4 and that track isn't as wet..
however, there are other scoobys i have seen running sub 9.4's even at our crappy track here so i have no clue...i am always .2 sec behind at 2.0 in 60' i just don't think i have the power to go any quicker but i wouldn't know why unless it's the almost 19000 miles i have on it or my clutch is slipping a little.....if you live in the jacksonville area come drive my car at the track and see what i am saying

Look to other details
With that trap speed of 91.35 and a perfect launch you should run a 14.5 time in the 1/4 -- at least your making enough power to do that.
There are several other details to check out also, as the sum of the times for several small changes can make a big difference.
Shift points, run to 7k in low and shift around 6.5k in the other gears. You'll have to experiment a couple hundred RPM up or down from those numbers to see what your car perfers. You can give away a lot of time by reving too high on your shifts. If your going to miss a shift point it usually costs you less time if you shift early, so start a little low and work up a few hundred rpm at a time.
What are you doing for you last shift, holding in 3rd through the traps or shifting to 4th ? Don't shift up to 4th unless you absolutly have to to avoid hitting the rev limiter in the traps.
Tire pressures can also make a difference, in my car I cost myself almost a full second if I run too low tire pressures. I find 35 # + works best for me. If your running low pressures, your causing a lot of unnecessary rolling resistance. The guys with big power can lower tire pressure to manage wheel spin, and not loose much because they have the power to pull the extra rolling resistance. A stock car will not.
You didn't mention your car's weight, but little things like running with a full fuel tank vs 1/4 tank will also cost you a few tenths.
Taking out the spare tire is good for 26 #. Excess gas in the tank and extra weight in the trunk transfers weight off the front tires which will lead to excess wheel spin.
Your slow 60' time and the difference between your ideal ET and your actual ET implies most of your lost time is in the first 100 ft or so of the strip. You may be spinning your tires more than most. Are you keeping your tires dry and not going through the water box ?
Try a quick dry hop before you stage just to be sure your tires are clean.
Are you cooling down the IC good between runs and not letting the engine idle in the staging lanes. Hot intake air can cost you 20 - 30 HP.
Thats the stuff that comes to mind. Its tough to analyze without being able to see a run. You might have some one vidio tape your run and watch it to see if you can pick something up. You could be staging very deep or something that will show up on a vidio but be almost impossible for you to determine from inside the car.

Re: Hellllpppppp!
I am going to try to help you. Something is not right.
First off your sixty foot is high. This is probably due to your rims. If you have your stock wheels put them back on. If not find a WRX owner that will let you race on his. Buy him dinner or something. Most people will help out a fellow WRX owner. I know on my personal car when I had less then 300hp the wheels made a huge difference. 2-3 tenths is what I kep reporting on the forums. Now, with much more power the difference is not as great but still... It is a tenth or two. Keep in mind a stock wheel and tire is a total of 40 lbs on my scale. my 18's with tires are 39 lbs. They are less... but still hurt me. They are the same overall size as well. They are harder to run since the tire's weight is out towards the edge. As an option if you sold your wheels simply buy a set of stockers from the forum.
Estimate #1: 1-2 tenths off your sixty and 3-4 tenths off your overall ET by going to stock wheels at stock pressure.
Next up. Your MPH is low. This means your HP is lower then you think. Find out why your car has low power. Could be a slipping clutch as well. Keep in mind that clutches slip several revolutions at WOT. A slipping clutch might allow your engine to sping 10 turns to every 2-3 of your tranny and you would not notice. Clutches dont ZING and let go until they are GONE.
Next time try this strategy and let us know what happends:
Stock wheels.
Stock pressure.
Remove all excess crap from the car including the spare and jack.
Run the car down to E. Add in 4 gallons of Unleaded race fuel. find it. Your town or track has it. OR add in one gallon of tolulene to 5 gallons of normal gas.
Reset the stock ECU by pulling the neg cable and hitting the brakes.
Lower boost to 12 psi.
Drive 50 miles at 12 psi. Drive normal.
if you dont have an MBC just run stock boost until you get to the track and then put the restrictor back in.
Do your WOT launch at 5000 rpm. Fast on the clutch. Any lag or slip and you need to hit it harder. You should have some front wheel spin. Shift at redline. No power shifting. Just smooth acurate shifts.
report back.... Follow this exactly.
Estimate: 14.0-14.3 @ 94-96mph. Its hot man.. Dont expect to much.

Well I am in the Jacksonville area and I always race out at JaxRaceways and from the 3 times I have ran my WRX out there I have gotten awesome times. The first two times I went to the track I got a 9.0 @ 76mph and the third time I went the temp. and humidity was bad so I only ran 9.2 @ 74mph. Most of my runs I get 2.0 60' times and I am running on stock wheels and tires. I am sure I could get into the 8's with some beter tires to get my 60' times down. The only mods I had the first two times I went were the silencer removal, boostmonkey, and Intercooler Spray Kit. The third time out I took out the boostmonkey and replaced it with a MBC, so I had to tweak it out to get the psi I wanted. I am sure it isnt the track that is the problem, there has to be other issues that come into play. Like the fact that you have 17" rims on a stock car. If you got a boost controller you could up the boost to make enough power to compensate. I am always out at the track on Tuesdays when I am not working, I would be more than glad to help you get your times down.

WOW i really appreciate all the info i never expected that much help...i guess we scooby owners stick together...
Well, i am going to try to answer everybody's questions and fill in a little although you have all given me a pretty good picture of what to do next....
Darkmoomlord: i have been working on those reation times...got it down to around .5xx usually, although i don't thnk that counts toward time.
SGOSWRX interesting about the tires but i have no power mods and i think that my combined wheel weight would exceed yours if these rims i got are as heavy as i think they are...also i think my tires may not be gripping enough, as i am getting lots of wheel spin....
Hotrod: That is some REAL good advice on trial and error with shiftpoints, probably the best explanation on how to determine the correct point i have ever heard. And to answer some of your questions...on the 1/8 mi track i just get into third briefly but on the quarter i run it out in 3rd..my tires are 35 all around..i have tried removing the spare but i could still get another 20lbs or so out i am sure and i never run on more than 1/4 tank..i have not tried cooling the intercooler although i was thinking of bringing a spray bottle with ice water because i know i am getting heat soak...and i hate the water they put down on the track.....i have some video i am trying to get posted on the web will let you know where to go...
AZScooby: Well, i agree that i think that it is a combination of the rims and a possible slipping clutch....i am afraid that when i take it in they will probably not warranty it although i believe that it was probably slipping when i bought it at 9000 miles espicially wwith the 1st driven gear already replaced...I will try what you say next wed night and report back...
02_scooby_wrx: I think that i saw you tuesday, in front of me at the finish line lol....i was the guy in the silver scooby...best i could get that night was 9.7 and i know you were getting at least .3 sec faster...next time we are out there drive my car so you can see what you think...
All in all i think that i will get some 16's to test, reset the ecu and keep the ic cool...experiment with launches and shifting and if all else fails i guess i'll have a heck of a time expalining to the dealer that i need to be .3 sec faster and they need to figure out why
Thanks for all the info, you guys are great!!!!!!

Yeah I relized who you were after I went to your homepage in your profile and saw pictures of your car. I am off work next tuesday night so I will be out at the track and I would more than happy to help you get your times down. I have a couple little tricks that I have learned from reading post on this board. I also have a DeltaDash that I can hook up in your car so we can see how it is running while you are making your runs. If you dont know what a DeltaDash is or what it is capable of go here: http://www.ecutek.com/frame_products.html . And if youd like I can give you a ride in my car so you can see if there is any difference and/or I can ride in yours and see if we can figure out what the problem may be.

I still have the 17" wheels but i was able to try it again with resetting the ecu and driving for a couple of weeks and with a fast clutch release at around 5500 rpm i was able to smoke just about everything including a turbocharged celica (2001 i think) and a very nice mustang gt with some gearing mods however...here is my best time now to date:

my mph seems low and i am still harping, i know, on the fact that it is either wheel weight/diameter since i have no mods or a slipping clutch... but i can't remember if i shifted into 4th on that run or not....i had a slightly better run going but missed 2nd and that was all she wrote....
Anyhoo, i have put over 30 something hard launches on the car and i figured there really isn't any use in trying again until i find some "loaner" 16" wheels to see if that is the problem and also the cooler weather may bring a better response....
Just for laughs, my gf was watching from the stands and some people were laughing as i pulled up to the staging lane and said what is that thing doing here, whatever it is....she said it's a wrx...which they didn't recognize....then when they saw the 14.8 come up at the end they said Damn! Oh yea, thats one of those awd turbo rally cars...those things are cool......we have to learn em sooner or later

Yeah I just got mine, i did my first run and got a 14.9. The announcer was all like "Don't be fooled those Imprezas don't look like much. But watch out, they are somewhat quick." I toasted a BMW with ghetto looking slicks in the rear. It was all fun.

|[jira] [Commented] (YARN-230) Make changes for RM restart phase 1
|Fri, 23 Nov 2012 15:34:59 GMT
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/YARN-230?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13503228#comment-13503228 ] Tom White commented on YARN-230: -------------------------------- Overall, this looks great. General feedback: * Can we make application removal atomic? If the RM shuts down after a completed application is removed from the state store, but before the app attempts are removed from the store, then the app attempts may be orphaned. (There's a comment about it in FileSystemRMStateStore, but no action is taken so the attempt files will remain in the store.) It might be better to make RMStateStore#removeApplicationState responsible for removing the app attempts (i.e. remove removeApplicationAttemptState). This would solve the orphaning problem, and it would also make it possible to store the app attempts in a directory nested under the application directory, which would be nicer from a scaling point of view, and also for someone having to debug the state on the filesystem. * If the RM shuts down before a (successful) completed application is removed from the state store, will it be rerun on restart, or will the fact that a successful app attempt was stored mean that it doesn't need to? Obviously, the second one would be preferable. * The exceptions thrown by the public methods of RMStateStore should be more specific than Exception. * Let's have a default for yarn.resourcemanager.store.class in yarn-default.xml. StoreFactory has MemoryRMStateStore as the default, but that's not useful when running on a cluster; FileSystemRMStateStore would be better. Similarly it would be good to have the default location for the store be a system directory on the default file system. With these two changes folks would only need to set yarn.resourcemanager.recovery.enabled to true to enable recovery. (We might make that enabled by default at some point too.) * MemoryRMStateStore#removeApplicationState will fail if asserts are disabled: the remove method should be called in a separate statement and assigned to a variable which can be checked in the assert. It's worth checking if this problem exists elsewhere. * Naming nit: Store was renamed to RMStateStore, but so StoreFactory should be renamed to RMStateStoreFactory. * Naming nit: zk.rm-state-store rather than zk.rmstatestore for consistency with other property names. Also for fs.rmstatestore, and zk.rmstatestore.parentpath (parent-path). > Make changes for RM restart phase 1 > ----------------------------------- > > Key: YARN-230 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/YARN-230 > Project: Hadoop YARN > Issue Type: Sub-task > Components: resourcemanager > Reporter: Bikas Saha > Assignee: Bikas Saha > Attachments: PB-impl.patch, Recovery.patch, Store.patch, Test.patch, YARN-230.1.patch > > > As described in YARN-128, phase 1 of RM restart puts in place mechanisms to save application state and read them back after restart. Upon restart, the NM's are asked to reboot and the previously running AM's are restarted. > After this is done, RM HA and work preserving restart can continue in parallel.

Where is customer protection here? I protested & protested to vosa about the injector issues, even though my car doesn't suffer this problem, yet VOSA were so flaky it was unbelievable! This was putting peoples lives at risk yet there was no rush to force a recall! Even though letters are being sent out to the 170 owners, this recall is NOT listed in Audi's recall list! Neither is the fuel actuator issue caused by the new injectors being fitted! I dreamed of owning an S Line, but I'd rather had kept my very reliable Megane!

The system went live on 25 June this year following a launch by the Interior Minister of Peru, Wilfredo Pedraza Sierra.The Interior Minister said of the new Emergency System 105: "This is a highly effective system, which is even earthquake-resistant. This platform for the police is the communication system used by the authorities and organisations with safety and security tasks to coordinate the emergency response in case of a major natural disaster."The Peruvian National Police emergency call system in the Lima Metropolitan Area has been equipped with Hytera Mobilfunk's ACCESSNET-T IP TETRA infrastructure and Hytera mobile and handheld TETRA terminals.The TETRA radio system provides mission critical voice and data transmission for the emergency services. For the moment, the system covers the capital city, Lima, and the port city of Callao, which together make up the greater Lima metropolitan area with around 8.8 million inhabitants.The first 300 Hytera PT580H portable radios and 100 Hytera MT680 vehicle radios are now being used by the police. The radios are already generating an average usage of more than 30,000 calls per day.The number of radios supplied to the emergency services will be increased at a later date to 3,459 PT580H handheld radios, 560 MT680 vehicle radios and 300 Hytera MT680B fixed radios. The emergency services in Lima are now very well equipped, in particular their smart patrol vehicles, which are fitted out with cameras, dispatchers, AVL (automatic vehicle location) and the latest TETRA applications.With over 120 permanently installed cameras, a video system provides continuous monitoring of the most important places and streets in Lima and Callao. All systems are in integrated at one central control centre, where the police use both a dispatcher and an AVL system.In the centre, incoming emergency calls and the emergency services are managed and coordinated on 65 workstations. Over 12 monitoring stations and a video wall with 24 46-inch monitors display the camera feeds. Thanks to the advanced system, a digital record is created for every incoming emergency call, which saves, among other things, information on the caller, the reason for the call, the actions taken and the resources used.Wireless magazineLeave a CommentPlease write code to prove you're humanMore on...

LOS ANGELES (Hollywood Reporter) - Stan Lee, the Marvel Comics legend and chairman and founder of POW! Entertainment, is creating "Super Seven," a multimedia comic book property in which he will appear as a major character.
At the center of the story are seven aliens whose spaceship crashes, stranding them on Earth, where they are befriended by Lee himself. Taking them under his care, Lee becomes their leader and enables them to resume their lives as superheroes.
"Although I've briefly appeared in other comics, 'Super Seven' is the first time that I'll actually be a continuing character in a far-out, original superhero series," Lee said.
Andy Heyward's recently launched A Squared Entertainment and Archie Comics have partnered with Lee for the project.
"Seven" does not fall under the agreement between POW! and Walt Disney Studios, which this year acquired a 10 percent stake in Lee's company for $2.5 million.
Archie Comics will publish "Seven," and A Squared will focus on developing the project as a TV series and online property as well as handling licensing and merchandising.
The partners are targeting a fall launch in print, online and on TV.
A Squared Entertainment, which Heyward launched last year with wife Amy Moynihan Heyward, is producing several online series with an eye to taking them to TV: "Secret Millionaire's Club," with billionaire Warren Buffett; "Gisele & the Green Team," starring supermodel Gisele Bundchen; and "Martha & Friends," featuring Martha Stewart.
The company this week also announced a partnership with Build-A-Bear Workshop.

Bell no longer among UF's 2013 class
Published: Saturday, August 11, 2012 at 4:46 p.m.
Last Modified: Saturday, August 11, 2012 at 4:46 p.m.
Cornerback Tre' Bell (Jersey City, N.J./St. Peters Prep) is no longer a Gator.
Bell, who verbally committed to the Gators on April 7, switched his pledge to Vanderbilt late Friday night and confirmed his decision via Twitter on Saturday.
A source close to the situation told The Sun that UF's coaches wanted to see Bell in action this summer so they could critique his play, something several of Florida's commits were required to do. But Bell never attended any of Florida's camps in June and didn't work out when he came down for Friday Nights Lights on July 27. The source said Bell refused to participate because his coach, Rich Hansen, advised him against it.
With many more highly rated corner prospects still left on the board, the Gators decided to part ways with the 5-foot-11, 170-pounder during his unofficial visit to UF on Aug. 2. Bell has not spoken to any media outlets since that time.
The top candidates to replace Bell are Mackenzie Alexander (Immokalee, Fla./Immokalee), Southern Cal commit Jalen Ramsey (Brentwood, Tenn./Brentwood Academy), Georgia commit Shaq Wiggins (Tyrone, Ga./Sandy Creek) and Priest Willis (Tempe, Ariz./Marcos De Niza). Ramsey, who is teammates with Florida quarterback commit Max Staver, will officially visit UF this fall and appears to be the most likely option for the Gators.
Florida now has 21 members in its 2013 class. Verbal commitments are not binding until prospects sign their national letters of intent on Feb. 6.

UCLA revival: Bruins back in role as a Pac-10 heavyweight
LOS ANGELES Though word of it seems to be leaking out slowly and rather quietly, there is something going on with Ben Howland's UCLA Bruins.
They're back.
Not back in the polls, where they were again missing this week despite crushing then-No. 10 Arizona on Saturday, an impressive performance that was the Bruins' 12th win in their last 14 games, improving them to 21-8 overall and tied with Arizona at 12-4 for first in the much-maligned Pacific-10 Conference.
But they're back where it counts — in the mix for an at-large bid to the NCAA tournament if they do not win the Pac-10 tournament next week in the Staples Center in Los Angeles.
"As long as we have the same kind of effort we showed against Arizona," sophomore forward Reeves Nelson says, "we feel we can play with anyone in the country."
Even Kevin O'Neill, coach of archrival Southern California, is lobbying for UCLA — and the Pac-10 — to get more respect.
BUBBLE TRACKER: Who's in line for the field of 68?
MORE ON THE BRUINS: Read UCLA's team page
"To me, they're a top-15, top-16 team," O'Neill says. "I think they've really come along and become a really, really good basketball team."
There are those who agree with O'Neill, including UCLA freshman center Joshua Smith.
"He's a smart man," Smith says of O'Neill.
So UCLA is good in basketball.
And dog bites man.
And Charlie Sheen gives an interview.
What makes the Bruins' surge worthy of notice is that it was just last year when they were pretty terrible (14-18). That was a year after they were merely pretty good (26-9, a first-round NCAA tournament loser). That was a year after they had appeared in their third consecutive Final Four.
A downward spiral appeared to be in full swing.
But Howland, 53, who has never experienced a decline in his program as a college head coach — he built Northern Arizona and Pittsburgh into consistent winners, then left — rolled up his sleeves, convinced his players to do the same, and he and the Bruins have worked themselves back into another postseason picture.
The Bruins are good, big and young, with more talented, big and young players headed their way in the form of twins David and Travis Wear, 6-10 forwards from Mater Dei High in Santa Ana, Calif., who showed considerable promise as freshmen at North Carolina but decided to transfer to UCLA. They will be eligible to play for the Bruins next season.
With the bruising Nelson (6-8, 225), Smith (6-10, 305) and the Wears, the Bruins should be loaded with inside talent next season and possibly beyond.
"Good problem," Howland says with a smile.
Last season, when the talent level arguably reached its lowest point since Howland arrived in 2003 and the Bruins lost to Cal State-Fullerton, Long Beach State and Portland (74-47!), appears now to be nothing more than a painful blip.
"I hope so," Howland says. "The bottom line is, I've got to do a better job at being able to plan for losing multiple players year in and year out to the NBA. It's hard to do, but it is what it is."
Since Howland arrived, he's lost three one-and-dones —Trevor Ariza, Kevin Love and Jrue Holiday. He's also lost two two-and-dones —Jordan Farmar and Russell Westbrook.
Has that caused him to change his recruiting philosophy?
"Not really," he says. "The bottom line is you want to recruit the best players."
If the talent level this season isn't up to the standards of Howland's Final Four teams, it is significantly higher than last year, partly because of the addition of Smith and junior college transfer guard Lazeric Jones but maybe more because of the improvement of last year's nucleus — Nelson, 6-9 sophomore Tyler Honeycutt and 6-5 junior Malcolm Lee.
Nelson has gone from 11.1 points and 5.7 rebounds a game as a freshman to a team-leading 14.0 points and 9.0 rebounds a game.
As a result of doing three-a-days at UCLA in the summer — lifting in the morning, pickup games in the afternoon, shooting in the evening — Nelson entered his sophomore season as nearly a new man: His body fat went from 9.5% to 5.5% and his vertical jump improved to 37 1/2 inches, slightly better than Lee's 37 and just under Honeycutt's 38.
"Last summer, my whole life revolved around basketball and trying to get better," Nelson says. "I feel a lot more bouncy. I think I've improved a lot."
You'll get no argument from Arizona, which surrendered 27 points and 16 rebounds to Nelson on Saturday.
Lee, second on the team with a 13.3 scoring average, has benefited from not having to share the point guard position this season.
"Now he's able to focus more on shooting and being more of an offensive threat as opposed to running the team and distributing the ball," Howland says. "He's also our best perimeter defender."
Honeycutt has made a huge leap as a sophomore, averaging 12.8 points (up from 7.2 as a freshman), 7.4 rebounds and leading the Pac-10 in blocked shots.
"He has really improved his jump shot," Howland says of Honeycutt, who leads the Bruins with 46 three-pointers, including five of six at then-No. 4 Kansas in a Dec. 2 game UCLA lost 77-76.
Three days after that, UCLA hit a low point — a 66-57 home loss to Montana, the Bruins' fourth loss in a row, putting them at 3-4.
They stood at the turning point. They could go back to the losers of last season or get back to work and build brighter days.
"We knew we had a lot to work on, and we did just that," Honeycutt says. "We needed to share the ball. We needed to have trust in each other. We needed to play better defense. And we needed some young guys to mature into leaders."
There has been a lot of joy in Westwood since, and more turning points.
One, Howland says, came Jan. 29 at Arizona State, when, kind of out of nowhere, Smith, the ever-improving freshman center of whom dominance is eventually expected, threw down a highlight-reel dunk on the Sun Devils.
"Since then, he's been really aggressive," Howland says of Smith. "He was the key last weekend. They (Arizona) couldn't match up with him down low.
"Josh is unique. He's very, very skilled, and has size and strength that is second to none.
"And he's huge."

Ram Panda
"I come from a country where people are happy if they can cover the basics of food and housing, but most of us in the developed world have much more than we need," says Ram Panda, MEng'71, MBA'77, a successful businessman who came to Montreal from India in 1968. "We use resources today, but we rarely build things that will last for the next 100 years."
Committed to building 'things that last' and reducing his ecological footprint, Ram Panda makes an effort to reduce waste – even through his business. After graduation, he began working with a friend to develop standardized software packages for industry. The company eventually focused on metals, helping distributors reduce waste through innovating processing and distribution methods. The firm, started in the early 1980s, was renamed Invera Inc. in 2000. As President of Invera, Panda does business worldwide.
A dedicated McGill alumnus, Panda recognizes the role that the University played in his success and has continuously provided funding to support the Faculty of Engineering, with the desire that it maintain its high-calibre programs. Joining with Lorne Trottier, BEng'70, MEng'73, DSc'06, he also provided the initial funding to create the Institute for Sustainability in Engineering and Design (ISEAD).
"The concept of supporting important causes has to be inculcated in the next generation. I tell my kids, 'If you do well in life, don't forget your obligations to society,'" says Panda, who has been a member of Engineering's Faculty Advisory Board since 2007. "It's about giving back."
He treasures his McGill years while keeping a clear eye on the future. "It was a privilege being at McGill, which I do not take lightly, given that there are always so many deserving candidates. My years at McGill were formative, so I want to give back. I believe that if enough people contribute to the effort, we can make a difference."

If you've had enough of those non-stop "Sex and the City" re-runs, you're in luck!
It is being reported that The CW picked up the show's prequel series called "The Carrie Diaries."
It's no secret that "Sex and the City 2" didn't do so hot, and Kristin Davis has made it known that she thinks a third film is a mistake.
During her interview with E!, Ms. Davis shared that she's against the whole idea on several different levels.
Getting some much needed rest following last night's UK premiere and afterparty of "Sex and the City 2," Sarah Jessica Parker and Kristin Davis were spotted stepping out in London, England on Friday (May 28).
The SATC stars made separate exits from the ritzy Claridges hotel on the same day in which their sure-to-be-blockbuster film found its release into theaters.
It's always one of the highlights of each year's awards show season, and the 2009 Grammy Awards definitely didn't disappoint.
From the red carpet arrivals to the final award of the night to the swanky afterparties, the Grammys boasted an illustrious list of attendees that read more like a who's who of actors and musicians.
In a familiar scene, Sarah Jessica Parker was spotted having some mother-son bonding time in the West Village of New York City earlier today (January 22).
The "Failure to Launch" actress held James' hand as they strolled through the chilly Manhattan streets on their way to his school.
From book to television to movie, "Sex and the City" has always been overwhelmingly successful. And now plans for a sequel to 2008's "Sex and the City: The Movie" are full speed ahead.
According to FOX Pop Tarts' Hollie McKay, plans for a follow-up to last year's uber-hit have been green-lighted, with all four main cast members securing deals with the studio.
With the rousing success of "Sex and the City: The Movie" earlier this year, fans have been wondering about the prospects of a sequel. And according to Kim Cattrall, there's a second installment in the works.
It's theatrical release on May 30th drew massive crowds, and last night Sarah Jessica Parker, Cynthia Nixon, and Kim Cattrall helped launch the "Sex and the City: The Movie" DVD.

This year, serve a classic cocktail that'll whet your guests' appetites before the next big feast. For a drink that'll truly kick-start the appetite, we recommend the bitter Italian drink known as the Negroni — and a two-ingredient appetizer to go along with it. Though this cocktail (which was purportedly invented by a Florentine count!) isn't for the faint of heart, we'd argue that once you fall for it, there's no going back. Watch our latest episode of Happiest Hour for an easy drink (and bite) to add a punch to this holiday's entertaining.

@Kat You could try Aperol -- it's a lighter, less bitter version of Campari. It's the gateway Campari drug!
This is my husband's favorite drink! I've never gotten on board because I'm not a huge fan of Campari -- would it be blasphemous to go light on the Campari and heavier with the other elements?

The Orbis FEH Conducts Training Program in Hue for the First Time
Orbis enhances capacity of local eye care services in Central Vietnam through ophthalmic training program
New York (May 5, 2015) – Orbis, a leading global non-governmental organization (NGO) that works to eliminate avoidable blindness, has returned to Vietnam for the 6th time to deliver a two-week intensive ophthalmic training for eye professionals in Hue, Vietnam. In partnership with Hue Central Hospital (HCH) and Hue Eye Hospital (HEH), this program marks the first visit to the city for the Orbis Flying Eye Hospital (FEH)—the world's only accredited ophthalmic training hospital aboard a DC-10 aircraft.
The program, which will run through May 15, 2015, aims to strengthen the surgical skills of local ophthalmologists and enhance the capacity of eye care services in Central Vietnam, especially in pediatric ophthalmology. Orbis will focus on advancing hands-on and participant level skills in the areas of glaucoma, oculoplastics, medical and surgical retina, and conditions affecting children, including strabismus and congenital glaucoma.
"Orbis began working with Vietnam's ophthalmic communities through hospital-based projects in 1996, and we embarked on long-term, sustainable blindness prevention programs with local partners since 2000," Huong Tran, Country Director of Orbis Vietnam, said. "In fact, by collaborating with the government and our partners, Orbis is the only non-profit organization which has helped to build Vietnam's capacity to prevent and manage childhood blindness, including ROP [retinopathy of prematurity], through the setting up of five tertiary pediatric eye centers in Hanoi, Hue, Da Nang, Binh Dinh, and Ho Chi Minh City."
By leveraging the FEH, the program also aims to create public awareness on the prevention and early detection of childhood blindness in the country. According to the 2007 Rapid Assessment of Avoidable Blindness (RAAB) study, more than half a million Vietnamese people are blind, and an estimated 3 million Vietnamese children are visually impaired. However, the prevalence of blindness in Vietnam's Central region is the highest among the country's seven regional zones[1]. The National Institute of Ophthalmology also projected that at least 50,000 children in Central Vietnam have some type of strabismus, and about 2,500 children have ptosis. In general, retinopathy of prematurity (ROP), which is an eye disorder affecting premature babies, was found to be the major cause of blindness in 32.6% of blind children under 10 years old, and 6% between the ages of 10 and 16 in Vietnam[2].
Although pediatric ophthalmology services are in high demand in the Central region, only a limited number of ophthalmologists in Hue and Da Nang have been trained and able to perform basic pediatric surgery and other procedures. Therefore, childhood blindness prevention has been identified as a priority eye care issue nationwide by the National Blindness Prevention Steering Committee in Vietnam. In response to this, the Hue FEH program also provides continuing medical education tailored for nurses, anesthesiologists, biomedical engineers, and other healthcare professionals, including hands-on training, pediatric nursing and infection control, basic life support and World Health Organization's Surgical Safety workshops.
"By working with the Hue Eye Hospital and Hue Central Hospital, we aim to enhance the skills and knowledge of their ophthalmologists and residents in performing advanced subspecialty surgical procedures, especially in pediatric ophthalmology and safe anesthesia practices," said Dr. Ahmed Gomaa, Medical Director of Orbis Flying Eye Hospital.
About Prevention of Blindness Worldwide
On a global scale, 285 million people are visually impaired. An estimated 80% of all visual impairment can be avoided or cured. Approximately 90% of all visually impaired people live in low income settings.
About Orbis
Orbis prevents and treats blindness through hands-on training, public health education, improved access to quality eye care, advocacy and partnerships with local health care organizations. By building long-term capabilities, Orbis helps its partner institutions take action to reach a state where they can provide, on their own, quality eye care services that are affordable, accessible, and sustainable.

The frogs, among the most poisonous amphibians on the planet, are found only in the wild on the western slopes of the Andes in Ecuador, South America. But now dozens of the rare species have been bred at the Blue Reef Aquarium in Portsmouth, Hampshire.
When adult they turn bright red with three usually greenish fluorescent stripes, but grow to only a centimetre in length.
Aquarium spokeswoman Jenna MacFarlane said: 'These beautiful frogs are under increasing threat in the wild due to loss of habitat and pollution and we are delighted to have been able to breed them successfully here.

New Delhi: Congress president Sonia Gandhi today paid rich tributes to the head of Bochasanvasi Akshar Purushottam Sansthan (BAPS) Swaminarayan Sanstha, Pramukh Swami, who passed away this evening.
She said he will always be remembered as a "crusader of humanity, religion and spirituality".
His death is a huge loss and he leaves behind a rich legacy, the Congress president said.
"Country and humanity has lost a saint in the death of Swami and he led a selfless life in the service of humanity and built temples in India and abroad to spread Indian culture and spirituality," she said.
Congress vice-president Rahul Gandhi also paid tributes to the head BAPS Pramukh Swami Maharaj.
He said the spiritual guru's message of compassion and service will remain an "inspiration".
"Deeply saddened by the passing away of HH Pramukh Swami Maharaj. His message of compassion & service will remain an inspiration," the Congress vice president said on Twitter.
Pramukh Swami, who was ailing for some time due to old age-related problems, breathed his last at 6 PM in Sarangpur in Gujarat's Botad district. He was 95.
