After three years, the South Kolkata parliamentary seat, which returned Mamata Banerjee to the Lok Sabha for six consecutive times out of her seven terms as MP before she resigned to become chief minister in 2011, would be set aside for her family during the Lok Sabha polls slated for 2014.
If the political grapevine is right then Mamata's nephew and All India Trinamool Congress Yuva president Abhishek Banerjee is being tipped as the party's candidate from the Harish Chatterjee Street seat, instead of sitting MP and state Trinamool president Subrata Bakshi.
It is learnt that Mamata is toying with two options regarding Subrata Bakshi.
One is to nominate Subrata Bakshi as the Trinamool candidate from Jadavpur Lok Sabha seat, instead of the rebel sitting Trinamool MP Kabir Suman.
The second option being considered is to field the Trinamool Rashbehari MLA Sovandeb Chattopadhyay as Jadavpur Lok Sabha candidate.
And once the Rashbehari Assembly seat falls vacant, Mamata would get her lieutenant Subrata Bakshi elected from Rashbehari in an Assemby byelection and induct him into her Cabinet in 2014 middle.
"South Kolkata parliamentary seat is Mamata Banerjee's pocket borough. Anybody who is nominated by her in that seat would win hands down," said a Trinamool leader.
But Mamata's changes for the mid-2014 Lok Sabha polls is not limited to just these two segments.
Performance of the MPs in the last five years, revolt against leadership and role of the MPs in inner-party factionalism are all being taken into account by the CM in deciding whether the sitting MP would be given ticket and allowed to contest the next election.
The name of Samir Chakrabar ty is doing the rounds for Barasat Lok Sabha seat, which is now held by Trinamool's Kakoli Ghosh Dastidar.
The question being asked is whether she would be shifted to Barrackpore parliamentary seat, and in that case from where would sitting MP and former Union railways minister Dinesh Trivedi contest?
Sources said Bongaon MP Gobinda Naskar, Krishnanagar MP Tapash Pal, Ranaghat MP Sucharu Haldar and Bolpur MP Shatabdi Roy are unlikely to get tickets and the party would nominate new candidates in these parliamentary seats. For that matter, even Diamond Harbour MP Soumen Mitra is sceptical about his future.

BMW's Spartanburg plant will be company's biggest
$1 billion investment will hike annual capacity to 450,000 units, add X7 crossover
SPARTANBURG, S.C. -- BMW will invest $1 billion in its factory here by 2016 to expand capacity by 100,000 units and add production of a fifth crossover, the X7 -- making the plant its biggest worldwide.
Norbert Reithofer, CEO of BMW AG, said Spartanburg's annual production will top that of BMW's Dingolfing, Germany, plant, which can build 350,000 vehicles a year.
BMW's current capacity has just been boosted to 350,000 units. Last year, the plant produced 297,326 vehicles.
Reithofer said building 450,000 vehicles a year will mean the equivalent of "a whole new plant" of output beyond last year's total.
"This is the fifth expansion since production began 20 years ago and represents another major investment," said Manfred Erlacher, president of BMW Manufacturing Co.
The plant has begun building the new X4 crossover, which is to go on sale in June in the United States. Spartanburg also produces the X3, X5 and X6.
Harald Krueger, BMW board member for production, said the group has 28 factories in 13 countries. More than 70 percent of the plant's production is exported to more than 140 countries worldwide, he said.
"And we are really proud that this plant annually exports vehicles valuing over $7.5 billion -- which, according to the U.S. Department of Commerce, makes BMW the largest U.S. vehicle exporter by value to non-NAFTA countries. 'Freude am Fahren' -- made in America," Krueger said.
Reithofer cited several other milestones:
The United States is the second-largest market for the BMW Group worldwide.
It is the largest market for Mini and Rolls-Royce and BMW M high-performance cars.
The United States is expected to be a major, if not a leading, market for BMW's new i electric and plug-in hybrid cars.
The factory, dealers and direct suppliers employ nearly 70,000 people in the United States.
BMW executives provided no details on the new seven-seat X7 that is expected to go on sale in 2017 or 2018 in the United States.
Reithofer said cheap fuel was not the main driver of the company's plans to revive the X7, a project which had been mothballed a few years ago.
"It has nothing to do with the U.S. fuel prices," he said.
"It's the right product for us. It was pushed by our marketing and sales division, not the engineers. We think it will be a success in the U.S. and China, we cannot just ignore the market," he said.
The United States is BMW's second-largest national market, accounting for 19 percent of group sales in 2013, behind China with 20 percent of sales. Germany, BMW's home market, accounts for 13 percent of the automaker's sales.
BMW expects the U.S. car market as a whole to grow to about 16 million cars in 2014, almost rebounding to 2007 levels.

Investing in Clean Water Pays
By Nancy Stoner
Population growth, aging infrastructure, urbanization and climate change are placing increasing pressure on our water infrastructure all across the country, and over the next 20 years, EPA estimates that more than $600 billion will be needed to address water infrastructure problems.
Modernizing the systems that bring us the clean water we depend on every day provides a clear benefit to the environment and public health, but more and more, we're seeing how upgrading our water infrastructure is a driver for economic growth and job creation. A new report from the non-profit Green for All estimates that a $188.4 billion investment in water infrastructure over the next five years would add $265 billion to the economy and create 1.9 million jobs. And, the Senate Environment and Public Works Committee said in a recent report that for every job added by water and wastewater industries, three jobs in other industries must be added to support that work in the water industries.
On a recent trip to Minneapolis, Minnesota's drinking water plant, which is undergoing a $25 million facelift, I got to see how an investment in water infrastructure is already paying dividends and will continue to do so for years to come.
The plant's upgrade, to which EPA contributed $6.5 million through the American Reinvestment and Recovery Act, includes a new machine to process residuals that uses far less electricity – about $100,000 worth per year – than its predecessor, according to the plant manager. The machine produces a type of residual that's easier to ship and will save Minneapolis about $1 million each year in trucking costs, which will reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 150,000 pounds annually. Add that up over the 30 year expected lifetime of the new machinery and you're talking about huge economic and environmental benefits.
And, the new machine, a filter press, was made in Michigan. Another newly-installed piece of machinery came from Pennsylvania, and new pipes are from Ohio and Alabama. In addition to buying homemade goods and supporting jobs in several American communities, the plant upgrade created the equivalent of 25 full-time jobs over the last two years, and 47 jobs for almost a year when work was at its peak.
The work to modernize the Minneapolis plant – installing new equipment that will cut operating costs and reduce air pollution while creating jobs – is a recipe for success, and it's all in the name of improving our drinking water.

The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services is designing a patient experience survey for emergency department patients. On Monday, the agency submitted a formal request for information on existing tools that can measure topic areas, including communication with providers, pain control and wait time. With other CMS surveys already implemented in hospitals, home health agencies and with health and drug plans, the forth-coming patient experience survey will target adult ED patients and their caregivers, CMS said, although the agency also is interested in how it can develop a pediatric survey.
"A patient's experience in an emergency department is an essential component of their overall healthcare experience in a hospital, and we believe that a patient survey evaluating such care will further support the HHS's goals and priorities," CMS said.
Although CMS did not provide specific details on how survey results will be used, the agency said the purpose is to develop "objective comparisons of emergency department experiences across the country" and "to help improve the quality of care." Request for information (.pdf)

One night at the Tavern
July 21, 2011, 02:08:23 PM »
The dreams were the worst part. The image of the glade would appear, and with it was an overwhelming feeling of horror and dread, and the shadow. It was a tower, a very typical sort of tower that might be found in a border area, like an outpost. But the tower was the source of the fear. I cant turn around, I've escaped from the tower, or I think I have. The grass is green, and the trees are sighing in the wind and I should be happy but I'm not. I run, but it doesn't work. The shadow is always leaning over my shoulder, and no matter how fast I run, the trees never get any closer.
I wake up with a scream stuck in my throat. Head pounding, hung over again. I have my sword, battered and notched from hard use and little care.
The sun has set. Time to head back down to the tavern, there are a few coins left in my pouch and a little hair of the dog never hurt anything.

Though the tavern wasn't a far walk away, the dreams always haunted me until I stepped through its door. Something about knowing that next drink was so close....
But, before that, the tower was solidified as a clear threat in my mind. I can almost feel its shadow, even now, as I force myself to walk with confidence. It would be a bad idea to look scared at this time of night, in this part of town. Even with a sword at your side, a cowardly man is a target, and you can't always rely on your reputation to save you...
That tower, thought. There was a low rumble of thunder, looks like it might be a stormy night. The moon was shrouded with thick storm clouds that seemed tov be rolling towards the town. Rain. I didn't mind the rain so much, it was nice to have it wash away the nightmare sweat. Even in the cool downpour, I feel its shadow. What could be in such a normal looking tower as to be inescapable, I wondered for a moment. Bah! Just a dream, another dream...
And as it always is, I was at the tower- I mean- Tavern, before I knew it. Looking up at the batter old sign, the dagger in a mug, and the off-beat slogan. Matter's Mugs: Fill your bladders at Matter's. I'm home, I thought, and opened the door...

The ale was passable, not good, but not the worst thing to have a cup of. There was a peculiar local custom of cutting the regular ale with a dose of vinegar steeped with some local herb. It was sour enough to make a golem gag. My thoughts wander like the flames in the hearth, almost lost but seemingly drawn along an inexorable course. I remember the sound of her laughter, and the anguish of her screams. Is she alive? Are any of the others alive? Is the wizard still alive? Is he still looking for me?
A familar face, but nameless, walks into the tavern. Fear and paranoia ripple like snakes in a river. Its time to go...

Sweat covered Jedore, crawling on his skin like insects. How many dreams can a man have, he thought? How many sleepless nights until he finally breaks? He was beckoned by a womans voice, like always, towards the tower shrouded in fog. It was dank, and down right chilling everytime he entered into that dream. A mist covered the ground that seemed to suck up his feet and he glided towards an open doorway at the base of the structure. The closer he got to the tower the more and more it seemed to drag him by invisible strings, and the doorway would widen, the voice grow louder, turning into a stone mouth with sharpened teeth. He never made it inside before waking up again. But that was earlier, in the morning. It was dark out now, time to work. The tavern would be busy. Always was. One of the only good things his brother had left him before he died, the dumb bastard. Jedore was cleaning a glass with a dusty cloth from behind the bar, watching with a weary eye those that stood around him. He was tired, and angry, angrier than usual in fact, and he felt people could tell. He could feel their eyes, and he heard them whisper, or laugh, and he knew. They saw him, a man in his late forties, short gray hair and thin mustache, tall but thin and handsome as all hell if he do say so himself, even with his left eye gouged out and covered up with a patch. They saw all that and they laughed because he was nothin' but an old dog tamed by years of easy living. A beaten man.
Jedore looks to the man closest to him, eying him up. He looks peeved, he thought. Panicked even. He watches him get up as if to leave, but Jedore sees a drink with no coin besides it and he barks,
"Ey! You! You gonna pay fer that drink before you march out of 'ere, or what?!"
Doubt is an insect, crawling on skin;
scuttling its blistered carapace towards my ear.
Oh irritated itch, oh lingering tickle of unclean filth,
when will you burrow in me to lay your eggs?

Did you know that Fatherâs Day wasnât an official federal holiday until 1972? The idea for it had, however, been around long before that, fueled by Motherâs Day.
Before becoming official in 1914, Motherâs Day was already recognized by a good many people, and celebrated around the country. At one such a celebration, the idea for Fatherâs Day was born. Sonora Smart Dodd of Spokane, Washington was sitting in a church attending a service to recognize mothers when the thought of Fatherâs Day struck her. She was the daughter of William Smart, a father of six, an American Civil War veteran, and a widower. Just like today, being a single parent wasnât a walk in the park, which is why Sonora felt it was royally unfair that only mothers were honored with a day of recognition. Thus, she tried to establish its equivalent for male parents.
Sonora began talking to people and organizations throughout the state of Washington to gain momentum for Fatherâs Day and she was successful (after all, she had a point) and the nationâs first state-wide Fatherâs Day celebration was held in Washington State on July 19, 1910.
It didnât exactly spread like wildfire, but the holiday did in fact spread. By 1924, President Calvin Coolidge urged other states to celebrate, but the encouragement was met with a fair amount of disdain. Basically, fathers didnât feel they should dumb down their manliness with overly sentimental gifts (which they would most likely have to pay for).
In the late 20s and early 30s, people campaigned for a single holiday that recognized both parents, but it came at a bad time for retailers. Feeling the full effects of the Great Depression, stores pushed for the holidays to remain separate in an attempt to fuel sales. When the economy became more stable again, World War II broke out, and the celebration of Fatherâs Day was seen as a way for people at home to support the troops. By the end of the war in 1945, Fatherâs Day wasnât about to disappear any time soon.
But it still wasnât official. In 1966, President Lyndon B. Johnson issued the first proclamation honoring fathers, designating the 3rd Sunday in June as Fatherâs Day. Then, six years later, Nixon signed a proclamation making Fatherâs Day a federal holiday.
And the woman who started it all? Well, she got to see her dream come true. Sonora Smart passed away four years later in 1978 at the age of ninety-six.

Shadow Trapunto Samples
Inspired by the incredibly talented award winning Longarm Quilter, Karen McTavish I have been trying my hand at some trapunto. I have been studying the wonderful designs by Karen McTavish in her books including "The Secrets of Elemental Quilting" and "Custom Curves".
Trapunto is a technique where quilt motifs are marked onto a quilt top and then quilted onto a layer of wadding with soluble thread. The wadding is then carefully trimmed away around the motifs, leaving an extra layer of wadding behind the motifs. The quilt is then layered with wadding and backing as usual and quilted. Once the quilting is finished, the quilt is dunked in water to remove the water soluble pen markings and water soluble trapunto thread.
Shadow trapunto is similar to basic trapunto but uses different components. The top layer of the quilt needs to be a sheer fabric, such as a batiste. A bright piece of fabric is then layered behind the batiste which gives the effect of dyed batting in the background.
I have been experimenting with different fabrics for the top layer and the bright layer of fabric as well as the wadding. My first sample used a design element called Rapture from Karen McTavish's book "Custom Curves".
The quilting design has been surrounded by my favourite background quilting design - pebbles. Whilst I was happy with the result, I decided that the top fabric was not sheer enough as the bright red fabric which is layered behind the top fabric barely shows through.
I managed to find some batiste fabric wide enough to eventually make a wholecloth quilt. My second sample has been made using this as the top fabric. Lisa from Dyed and Gone to Heaven has dyed a bright red wide cotton sateen fabric for me which has been used as the second layer in the following sample. The feather in the sample was inspired by the Victorian Feathers in Karen McTavish's book "The Secrets of Elemental Quilting".
I was quite pleased with the results of the second sample - I like the subtle pink background colour which has been achieved and the contrast of the white feather motifs.
I think I am ready to transfer these elements onto a larger shadow trapunto quilt. I have really enjoyed making these sample pieces - I even enjoyed the quiet rhythm of hours of snipping the wadding away and managed to do so without snipping the top fabric. Hopefully my eventual wholecloth quilt will be made with the same results - wish me luck!

We don't often get to see the stars in Brooklyn because of all the light pollution. On the clearest nights, sometimes you can make out a few bright stars, but you typically have to leave the city to get a great view. The lack of a sparkly night sky makes me crave and covet anything that replicates that effect — from sticky glow-in-the-dark ceiling stars to this beautiful zinc-plated pendant lamp. Made of raw iron with a phosphate coating, this hanging pendant at Jayson Home has hand-drilled holes that, when lit, give the appearance of a starry night sky. While it's probably not bright enough for office use, this would be gorgeous in an entryway or hallway where ambient lighting is sufficient. All those little twinkly light spots will look so beautiful at night. Click here to check out the pendant in more detail and order ($250) online. xo, grace
What a beautiful idea. It would look lovely at Christmas!
Absolutely love this lamp! Actually reminded me of the Constellation Lamps by Roost which we offer at nova68.com These pendant light fixtures were inspired by the stars that light up the sky on a clear night. These lamps create such a nice warm atmosphere and look fabulous when lit at night
A beautiful and elegant piece… it would add a sense of poetry to a room and a wonderful sense of mystery at night. I love this piece… Have you seen the series by ZENZA home as well?

Editors' Review
+Most Windows users will probably agree that it's frustrating when you can't close a malfunctioning application or process, even with the Task Manager. ProcessKO from Nenad Hrg is a free tool that can terminate nearly any running process or app, forcibly if necessary. Because it's often the same culprit that causes trouble, you can create Favorite KOs to target specific processes quickly. ProcessKO is for experienced users like developers and admins. It's easy to use, even for beginners, but that's the problem: if you're not sure what you're doing, you can kill the wrong process as quick as clicking. In expert hands, ProcessKO can end hanging processes without crashing other programs or your system. It's available in specific downloads for 32-bit and 64-bit Windows; we tried the 64-bit version in Windows 7.
ProcessKO is portable freeware, so we saved it to a folder, right-clicked the executable, and opened the program with Administrator privileges. ProcessKO's title bar notes whether the program is running with or without Admin rights; we tried both successfully but recommend running it as an Administrator. ProcessKO has a very small but efficient interface, with a series of drop-down menus to handle all tasks, starting with a Help menu with some basic options like always-on-top. The Favorites menu had Add and Remove commands as well as an option to add favorites from a file. Under the InstantKO menu, the program displayed all running processes and programs, including explorer.exe. Clicking anything in this list automatically terminates it, but not before you've checked a box on the interface specifying "I am an expert and I know what I'm doing!" Obviously, you'd better be right in your answer! The program can also terminate processes with its Timer feature. On the bottom edge are an Exit button and System menu that let us quickly shut down, restart, log off, and execute other system state commands in Aggressive or Normal mode.
Developer Nenad Hrg states that ProcessKO is for experienced users, not newbies. But even novices can use it to end a hanging process, when all else fails. Just be sure you KO the right one!

The Sports Museum: Hockey History Galore
by Joe Beare / Boston BruinsBoston -- TD Banknorth Garden is best known to hockey fans as the raucous home of the Boston Bruins. But it is also home to The Sports Museum, located on the 5th and 6th floors of the Garden, which boasts some of sports' greatest treasures.
With a focus on New England sports franchises from past and present, as well as famed New England athletes, the Sports Museum is rich with history and tradition. And as one would expect from the name and location, the hockey artifacts on display are some of the most impressive on either floor.
The 5th floor is home to a Bruins display that would leave any hockey fan in awe as some of the National Hockey League's most glorious moments are forever frozen in time. Here you can witness icebound greatness -- from the suspended cutout of Bobby Orr sailing through the air after his famous Stanley Cup winning goal to the brand new "Hail to the Chief" display -- The Sports Museum is a must see for any Boston hockey fan.
Terry O'Reilly |
Possibly the most popular item on display is the original penalty box salvaged from the Boston Garden and given to former Bruins player and coach Terry O'Reilly.
Appropriately located next to a display honoring its owner, the old sin bin saw its fair share of NHL legends throughout the years. Many tough, bloodied and weary athletes put up their feet for two shameful minutes in the old Garden box, or in O'Reilly's case (more often than not), a hard fought five.
Museum curator Richard Johnson identifies with O'Reilly's "lunch pail" style and remarked, "The Bruins identity for many seasons was based on a rugged style that was one part ballet and four parts street brawl. From the days of Eddie Shore and Sprague Cleghorn to the wild antics of Bobby Schmautz, Stan Jonathan and John Wensink, the Bruins have often succeeded playing on the dark side."
Just around the corner is the "Everybody Loves Raymond" display, dedicated to defensive Boston stalwart Ray Bourque. Several life sized images of the beloved blue liner highlighting some of his career's greatest moments stare down from high upon the wall, a well-deserved salute to the captain who starred on the Beantown stage for better than 20 years.
Next to the Bruins display is the Old-Time Hockey section of the museum, which holds one of hockey's most interesting and amusing artifacts.
Resting comfortably in a display case is 1924's version of the Zamboni: An equestrian powered ice-smoothing mechanism, manned by a crew of 13 broom-wielding men and a single horse.
Upstairs on the 6th floor, international hockey competition is honored with displays containing memorabilia from both the men and women's United States Olympic squads. And, by far, the favorite display of any American hockey fan is the one dedicated to 1980's "Miracle On Ice" team, who skated to an unlikely victory over the powerful Soviet Red Army club at Lake Placid, New York.
Johnson attended his first Bruins game in the Stanley Cup winning season of 1970 and appreciates the impact the 70's Bruins made on Boston and hockey in general.
"The Bruins of the Orr/Esposito/Bucyk era not only were responsible for the construction of innumerable rinks in greater Boston and New England," explains Johnson, "but they were also the team, that through their countless appearances on national TV, helped inspire the players who became part of the famed "Miracle on Ice" Olympic team of 1980."
Led into battle by four BU Terriers, Jim Craig, Mike Eruzione, Jack O'Callahan and Dave Silk, the 1980 team was kind enough to donate several jerseys worn in the legendary victories over the Soviets and the Fins.
The museum honored the four players at the museum's annual Tradition event in 2005.
"We were thrilled to honor the 1980 Boston University Olympic quartet on the 25th anniversary of their historic win," he said. "We all remember Mike Eruzione waving his teammates to the victory stand, but who can forget Dave Silk's flashy playmaking, Jack O'Callahan's enthusiasm, and Jim Craig's clutch goal keeping.
"They were a team for all time."
Of course no New England hockey display would be complete without paying tribute to possibly the most coveted trophy in Boston sports: The Beanpot. Won most recently by the present skaters at BU, the famed silver pot represents the greatest in-season tournament in college hockey.
With the winning school name from each year inscribed on the side, many collegiate stars that have gone on to NHL glory have competed for the coveted Beanpot.

Girls can suffer from undiagnosed autism as compared to boys
Many young ladies might have a mental imbalance that has never been diagnosed in light of the fact that they conceal the signs so well, analysts accept.
Anyway, a study by University College London and Bristol Universities prescribes numerous a larger number of females may have the condition than at one time in light of the fact that they veil the tell-story signs.
Yet Dr Radha Kothari, from UCL's Institute of Child Health and associates think numerous a larger number of young ladies might have the condition than awhile ago considered.
Figures show that young boys are nine times less averse to improve the condition than young ladies and specialists expected this was because of hereditary distinctions.
The discoveries have incited worry that young ladies are passing up a great opportunity for key medication and treatment that is abandoning them inclined to dietary issues furthermore wretchedness later on.
Figures show that 1.8 per cent of young boys have been diagnosed with an mental imbalance Spectrum Disorder - which additionally incorporates Asperger's - looked at to 0.2 per cent of young ladies.
A few researchers accept this is because of hereditary distinctions between the genders and they have discovered some "blemishes" in the men's genes which could trigger the condition.

After the Marseillaise, the most celebrated song of the first French Revolution. It was written by M. J. Chénier for a public festival, held June 11th, 1794, to commemorate the taking of the Bastille. The music is by Méhul. A mother, an old man, a child, a wife, a girl, and three warriors sing a verse in turn, and the sentiment of each is, "We give up our claims on the men of France for the good of the Republic." (See page 217, col. 1, Carmagnole.)
La republique nous appelle, Sachons vaincre on sachons perir, Un Français doit vivre pour elle, Pour elle un Français is doit mourir.
M. J. Chenier.
The Republic invites, Let us conquer or fall; For her Frenchmen live, And die at her call.

Darkness lurks in 'Black Swan'
"I had the craziest dream last night, about a girl who was turned into a swan," Natalie Portman says, tremulously, in the early going of "Black Swan."
But it can't possibly be as crazy as the Darren Aronofsky dream that follows for the next 100 minutes.
The director of "The Wrestler" has, with Portman as his fragile, fantastic collaborator, crafted a ballet movie that is also a psychological horror story and a scary reverie about obsession and paranoia.
Wild and woolly, the movie is a breathtaking head trip that hails from a long tradition of backstage melodramas: "42nd Street," "A Star Is Born," "All About Eve," and, yes, that kitschy '90s relic "Showgirls."
That Aronofsky's "Black Swan" takes place in the rarefied spheres of the dance world – with its thoroughbred ballerinas, sinewy and high-strung – makes the psychodrama somehow all the more intriguing.
Here is Nina (Portman), wrapped in a fluffy scarf, stepping from the subway and trooping off to rehearsals at Lincoln Center. Her whole life revolves around dance. There's a music-box ballerina in her bedroom – a bedroom still filled with the plush toys of her childhood, a bedroom in a cramped apartment she shares with her mother (Barbara Hershey), herself a dancer so many years before.
A new production of "Swan Lake" – stripped-down, primal, "real" – is on the season's slate, and the company's artistic director, Thomas Leroy (French actor Vincent Cassel), is looking for a new Odette/Odile to fill the pointe shoes left by his retiring prima ballerina, Beth MacIntyre (a just-this-side-of-camp Winona Ryder). Fiercely disciplined, Nina seems perfect for the part of the innocent, elegant White Swan, but Leroy expresses concerns that she doesn't have the sensuality, the slyness, to play her darker doppelganger.
Enter a new member to the troupe, Lilly (a cagey, sexy Mila Kunis), in from San Francisco. She's as uninhibited and earthy as Nina is tamped-down and tightly wound. It's clear that Leroy sees star potential there.
Will Nina get the role? Will Lilly? Are Leroy's motives purely artistic? Are Lilly's overtures to Nina a guileless signal of friendship, or some sinister plot to usurp her position in the company?
Portman, in the role of her career, oozes anxiety and aching loneliness. Here is a young woman overwhelmed by her dreams and ambitions, sexually repressed, smothered by her mother, and in physical pain from the intense regimen of dance. But also in self-inflicted pain: She picks and claws her body apart like a dog gnashing at itself.
If you thought the bloody stuff Mickey Rourke's character subjected himself to in "The Wrestler" was tough (remember the staple gun?), Portman's Nina puts herself through even more torture and torment. "Black Swan" is, at times, exceedingly difficult to watch.
And then there are moments when you just can't help but laugh. And that seems fine.
Portman, shot mostly in close-up and mid-range, appears to be doing much of the dance work herself, and ably. Members of the Pennsylvania Ballet lend verisimilitude and artistry to the proceedings, and the staging of "Swan Lake's" climactic scenes, truly a transcendent fusion of music, dance, and cinema, is thrilling to behold.
Thrilling, indeed. And brazenly, beautifully crazy.

Fox & Friends' latest vicious attack on Islam targets Muslim Family Day
On what is rapidly becoming a regular [1] feature, Fox & Friends this morning continued their incessant attack on Islam. Co-host Alisyn Camerota this morning hosted anti-Islam blogger and founder of the ironically named Americans Against Hate organization Joe Kaufman to attack Muslim Family Day at Six Flags Great Adventure. Camerota called it "insensitive" that they would host the event on September 12, "just hours after the anniversary of the September 11th attacks," and added "but what's even more controversial are the allegations that the Muslim group organizing the event could have been involved in financing the September 11 terror attacks." Kaufman went further, employing what is becoming a familiar phrase among anti-Muslim bloggers: "The fact that they're having it on September 12th, I believe they are actually spitting in the face of Americans."
So what evidence did Kaufman give to back up Camerota's claim that the Islamic Circle of North America (ICNA), who is sponsoring this event, "could have been involved in financing the September 11 terror attacks?" His first piece of evidence is a message from former ICNA President Dr. Muhammad Yunus making "a request calling on supporters to give 'material support to groups associated with al-Qaida and the Taliban." Here is what Yunus actually said, in an image hosted [2] on Kaufman's website: "Remember fellow Chechnyan Muslims in Eid Celebrations. President ICNA Dr. Muhammad Yunus has requested all Muslims around the world to include Chechnyan Muslims in their special Eid-ul-Fitr prayers. We must show our spiritual and material support for our brothers and sisters being oppressed by Russian forces." For Kaufman, this justifies making the claim that "they may be themselves involved in financing 9/11."
In case the name Muhammad Yunus sounds familiar, by the way, that would be Nobel Peace Prize recipient [3] Muhammad Yunus, developer of the microcredit and microfinance concepts.
Kaufman went on to try to associate ICNA with Hamas through more tenuous ties. According to his website, in 2006 ICNA was listed as a donor to the Al-Khidmat Foundation, a Pakistani charitable organization that, according to their website, "is dedicated to the services of humanity all parts of the world without any discrimination of creed, religion and political associaltion [sic]." They provide funding for clean water projects, diagnostic centers, orphan homes, and other community-based programs. According to Kaufman, while ICNA was one of their donors, the Al-Khidmat Foundation made a one-time donation to Hamas. Kaufman of course has no evidence that ICNA was involved in the gift, or that their money was part of the gift, or that they had anything to do whatsoever with the gift. Kaufman has been pushing this connection for years, and even the Anti-Defamation League isn't buying it. An October 5, 2007 Dallas Daily News article reported on Kaufman's allegations. At the time, he was protesting a different Muslim Family Day at Six Flags Over Texas. They reported (accessed via Nexis):
Mohammad Barney, president of the Dallas chapter of ICNA, said the accusations are troubling and untrue.
According to its Web site, ICNA supports Islamic culture and education while promoting justice and understanding.
"It's disturbing that they are writing false statements like that," said Mr. Barney. "People have the right to say whatever they want, but that doesn't make it true."
The Anti-Defamation League - a pro-Jewish group - seems to agree. ICNA is not listed as a threat on its Web site.
"We don't involve ourselves in that kind of activity," said Mark Briskman, regional director of the league, who said his group would not participate in the protest. "He made a lot of claims ... without clear documentation of those claims. His statements are problematic."
So other than making what appear to be baseless accusations about an organization sponsoring a family outing, why would Fox & Friends bring Kaufman on to attack Muslim Family Day? Well, what he lacks in expertise or insight, he makes up for in dedication. What Kaufman failed to mention is that, while Muslims may be "spitting in the faces of Americans" for holding the event on September 12, he attacked [4] the event in 2007, when it was being held on October 14. Kaufman and Fox also ignored that the reason why the event is being held on September 12 this year --the same reason it was held on October 14 in 2007 --is that it falls on the first weekend after Ramadan ends.
In a FrontPage article titled "Fanatic Muslim Family Day" Kaufman wrote of the October 2007 event:
ICNA's Muslim Family Day that will occur on October 14, 2007 is nothing but a charade, created to spread hatred, but veiled in a way to make the sponsoring organization look harmless. Six Flags will play host to this dangerous farce. If events, such as these, are allowed to continue, more and more Americans could become desensitized to those groups - fifth columns within our borders that wish to do us harm. It is up to those concerned to speak out against these travesties that threaten our way of life.
He may have been on to something. Looking back at previous events, I was able to find evidence of ICNA members spreading hatred. Witness the horror:

Moose galore. | [ Sizes: Orig | Med | Small | Thumb ] | |
Near our campsite at Dollar Lake, four big bulls (three in this pic) kept us entertained as they fed during the late afternoon after we climbed Kings Peak. They are huge animals and worthy of respect. The interesting thing was that while we were on the trail in the morning, there were two large bull moose near Gunsight Pass. I saw probably 12 moose during our short couple of days in the area. 8-21-06 | Image Data |

[Illinois]: AsynchUp
This tool computes asynchronous updates of autoassociative networks.
Published on
Recurrent networks can used as pattern auto-associators and can act as content addressable memories, and can serve as models for certain types of neurobiological memory. They are often used to model the hippocampus, a brain region closely linked to memory formation and recall. Recurrent neural networks are dynamic systems that process signals in time. The ones we consider in the tool consist of one layer of neural units that are all interconnected and are intended as stored memory states. This tool is then able to recall patterns given hints in the form of incomplete patterns. However, this tool implements asynchronous updates rather than synchronous. This makes it more stable.

Yep, they end up in museums. There will be one that has the main ownership over the spacecraft, and then the craft will be rented out for displays at other museums for extended amounts of time...

I once saw a TV documentary on a village hospital in Russia that was having to deal with people from out in the sticks. They seemed to exhibit signs of a radiation like sickness. When they travelled out to the dachas and hunting lodges, they found that many of them were constructed from old rockets which had been crashed back down or abandoned! Only in Russia eh!

hi i am a thirteen year old boy who has just got his on beagle i was woundering if the dog will run the rabbit back to you durring a hunt. my grandfother has hunted before but i was just woundering.
Dakoda ,
Rabbits will sort of run in a circle , and as the beagle chases the rabbit it will come back around close to where you are at. It just takes doing it a few times to get the hang of it. It would be fun if your beagle could run/hunt with an older more experienced beagle to help your dog pick up hunting skills. Don't worry though as they already know to hunt and it will all come to them in time.
Have fun , oldhounddog

Jere Beasley (1935- ) is known for his success as a trial lawyer and for the 32 days he served as governor of Alabama in the summer of 1972. His law firm is nationally recognized for its success in winning extravagant awards for its clients, including an $11.8 billion punitive damage award against Exxon Mobil Corporation in 2003. Beasley's brief tenure as governor of Alabama resulted from a provision in the 1901 Alabama constitution that requires a lieutenant governor to become governor if, for any reason, the governor is out of the state for 20 days.
Jere Beasley was born to Browder Locke and Florence Camp Beasley in Tyler, Texas, on December 12, 1935, but he was raised in Clayton, Barbour County, where his father ran a small grocery store. In 1958, he married Sara Baker of Adamsville, Jefferson County, with whom he had three children. In 1959, Beasley was awarded a bachelor of science in economics from Auburn University, and in 1962 he earned a law degree from the University of Alabama School of Law. He was admitted to the Alabama State Bar later that year. In the midst of his studies, he also served as captain in a military police unit. After brief affiliations with law firms in Tuscaloosa and Clayton, Beasley opened his own law office in 1965.
In 1970, having successfully run the election campaign of Sen. Jim Allen, Beasley decided to run for office himself and was elected lieutenant governor of the state. He ran as a close associate of George Wallace, but as lieutenant governor reorganized the state Senate so that control of that body moved from the governor to the lieutenant governor, creating animosity between Beasley and Wallace. During Beasley's first term, Wallace was shot by a would-be assassin and suffered permanent paralysis while campaigning in Maryland for the 1972 Democratic presidential nomination. Medical treatment kept Wallace out of the state of Alabama for two months, leading to the invocation of the constitutional mandate that Lieutenant Governor Beasley take the office of governor until Wallace returned to the state. Beasley became governor on June 5, 1972. No swearing-in ceremony was necessary because the oath for both governor and lieutenant governor is the same in Alabama. Beasley performed the duties of governor from his lieutenant governor's office, pledged to run the state as Wallace wished, and, as one of his first acts in office, declared a day of prayer for the governor's recovery. Wallace returned briefly to the state on July 7, 1972, and Beasley's tenure as governor ended. Despite the ill will over the senate reorganization, Beasley won a second term in 1974.
Beasley made an unsuccessful run for governor in 1978, left politics, and turned his attention to his law practice. He established and became the senior partner of Beasley, Allen, Crow, Methvin, Portis and Miles, P.C., which became one of the nation's leading trial lawyer firms. The firm boasts of winning some of the largest jury verdicts in the nation. For example, Beasley served as co-counsel representing the state of Alabama in a case against Exxon Mobile Corporation alleging that the company violated lease contracts. A Montgomery jury rendered an $11.8 billion punitive damage award and added $103 million in compensatory damages for the state in 2003. The company appealed the award, and in 2008, the Alabama Supreme Court sided with Exxon and reduced the punitive damages to $3.6 billion. Beasley has also won substantial verdicts against Merck & Co. for harmful health effects from its anti-inflammatory Vioxx. Beasley is cited in The Rule of Lawyers: How the New Litigation Elite Threatens America's Rule of Law as Alabama's most successful trial lawyer. Beasley resides in Montgomery, where he is involved in civic activities as a member and officer in the Lions Club, Chamber of Commerce, and other organizations and is a member of St. James Methodist Church.

Question: What tests (blood tests, genetic tests, brain scans, etc.) are used to diagnose bipolar disorder?
Answer: So, which tests are used is actually an easy question to answer, because the answer is none.
The diagnosis of bipolar disorder is a clinical one, and made in consultation with your mental health professional.
So there are no blood tests, there are no genetic tests, there are no brain scans, EEGs -- things like that that would be useful. Certainly those tests might be ordered as part of a general evaluation and workup to make sure that there are no other medical conditions that could be causing the symptoms of bipolar disorder, but ultimately, bipolar disorder is a clinical one made in discussion with your physician.

This tire is Moon-bound and beyond, you see, where failure is not an option.AdvertisementFirst of all, no gas stations for millions of miles. Second, strapping a spare to the back of the capsule would look tacky. Lastly, and most importantly given the life and death nature of space travel, blowing out a tire on the red sands of Mars, or even much closer to home on the Moon could spell disaster for a human exploratory crew.So, with that in mind, NASA and Goodyear set about creating a tire comprised of wire mesh and 800 independent load bearing springs. Made of metal mesh, these tires are immune to traditional tire-popping threats, like heat, cold or sharp objects.AdvertisementBut wait, there's more!Says NASA researcher Vivake Asani of these 2010 R&D Award-winning tires:"[These tires do not have a] single point failure mode. What that means is that a hard impact that might cause a pneumatic tire to puncture and deflate would only damage one of the 800 load bearing springs. Along with having this ultra-redundant characteristic, the tire has a combination of overall stiffness yet flexibility that allows off-road vehicles to travel fast over rough terrain with relatively little motion being transferred to the vehicle."SponsoredSeemingly invincible tires. Just what the cold, uncaring, lifeless expanse of space requires. Now, if only we could get our act together and actually get to the Moon again in the near future. Then we could actually use these magnificent tires! [Slashgear]Reply304 repliesLeave a reply

Vintage Chic
1920's Inspired Haut Minerals KGOODPHOTO Woo Vintage Clothing
Alyne Bridal
Orange Pink Red
This 1920's wedding is so homemade, it's homespun. Nearly everything was made by the bride, her mother or friends, including the blackberry preserve favors, a nod to the couple's engagement that took place following an afternoon of berry picking near where the bride grew up. The straps of her lace Alyne Bridal dress are so seriously striking, we don't mind when she turns her back on us. With friends like hers, we doubt she does much of that to anyone in the figurative sense. Kelsey Goodwin of KGOODPHOTO shot it all at this private residence, so you'll see what we mean as soon as you check out all the homey vintage images in the full gallery!
From the Bride…We met at school in a two year program for Computer Science. I was the only girl in a class of 25 guys. We picked each other out right away but played it cool for a few months. We got to know each other while working on some projects together and the rest is history! Tim proposed in a sun-drenched meadow on a late August afternoon in 2010. The day was so carefree and perfect in every way. We ate sandwiches sitting on an old dock by the lake. We strolled through the forest and we picked blackberries on the edge of a secluded meadow. That's when he asked! The location was really magical because it was near the home where I grew up and I hadn't been back to the area for years. We carried the blackberry theme into our wedding on our stationary and by making blackberry jam for our guests as favours. It is impossible to pick a favorite moment – they were all amazing. Exchanging vows under a structure built by my dad, spending time with our guests who were looking sharp in their vintage-inspired clothes, the super fun photo shoots, the touching and hilarious speeches, dancing barefoot on the patio late into the night… and mostly, seeing it all come together. When Tim and I first met, he was in a band and they used to cover the song Lazybones by Leon Redbone. It has always been a favorite of ours. After weeding out so many typical first dance songs, it felt refreshing to settle on something a little bit unexpected and a whole lot "us". We found a 1930's Remington typewriter and set it up for guests to write us notes of advice – we got some good ones!

We don't always agree with her perspective, but Sheldon's mother certainly knows how to manage Sheldon. She's got years of experience (even if slightly abbreviated since Sheldon went to college at 11) in handling his quirky personality. Genetically, she may have given Sheldon his eyes and knees, but the far more significant gift arrived not via DNA but sound waves. That's right. We're talking about "Soft Kitty," everybody's favorite contagious lullaby. (See what we did there?) Sing it with us. You know the words.

Notes & Reviews:
This collection of five pieces firmly situates composer and ethnomusicologist Michael Tenzer (b. 1957) in the forefront of a group of contemporary composers creating cross-cultural musical and social fusions. The three large-scale works using gamelan instruments were conceived as a triptych. They are related structurally by their adaptation of the three-sectional form often found in large-scale Balinese compositions. All of the pieces in this collection use the aesthetic sensibilities, musical structures, and compositional resources of Balinese and South Indian traditions, as well as Western art music in varying combinations.
"I remember Michael Tenzer as a fellow classmate from my first college composition course. He was quick, vocal, incredibly musical. And he's turned out to be perhaps the pre-eminent composer/ethnomusicologist of his generation. He's one of the most renowned scholars of Balinese gamelan...What distinguishes Tenzer above all is his creative engagement with the field...The stunner of this collection is the first, Unstable Center (2003), for two gamelans. This shows off Tenzer's chops in both directions. The piece feels like it emerges directly form its tradition, yet it goes in directions that could only occur from an encounter with the West...this is something remarkable." - Robert Carl, Fanfare

Long Range Advance Scout Surveillance System
Mounted Reconnaissance Surveillance and Target Acquisition
The Long-Range Advanced Scout Surveillance System (LRAS3) is a long-range multi-sensor system for the U.S. Army scout, providing the real-time ability to detect, recognize, identify and geo-locate distant targets. The LRAS3 is the premier ground combat reconnaissance and surveillance system on the modern battlefield.
eLRAS3 - 3rd Generation FLIR
eLRAS3 is the next generation Long Range Scout Surveillance System. eLRAS3 meets or exceeds all LRAS3 requirements, with a 55% reduction in sensor weight and volume and is fully compatible with all existing LRAS3 platforms.
TOW Improved Target Acquisition System (ITAS)
The TOW ITAS provides a highly mobile, adverse weather, day or night capability needed by early entry forces to destroy advanced threat armor at greater standoff ranges in the main battle area. ITAS increases target detection, acquisition, recognition and engagement ranges; fires all versions of the TOW missile from both the M41 ground launcher (dismount mode) and the M1121 high mobility multipurpose wheeled vehicle (HMMWV) platform; and provides a growth path for future missiles.
Commander's Independent Viewer
The Commander's Independent Viewer (CIV), for use on the Bradley A3, upgrades the capabilities of the U.S. Army's Bradley fighting vehicle. It provides a 360-degree panoramic view of the battlefield to enhance situational awareness and weapon effectiveness.
Horizontal Technology Integration
Increased situational awareness, force effectiveness, and more accurate target engagements are made possible through the horizontal technology integration (HTI) SGFLIR standard advanced dewar assembly (SADA) II technology. With detection ranges lengthened y a factor of greater than four over first generation systems, HTI permits earlier engagements at greater standoff ranges (compared to first generation systems) and, therefore, greater crew confidence and increased system lethality.

Albut / T3 / Keto Combo, suggestions please
Albut / T3 / Keto Combo, suggestions please
I decided that I was going to try a Albut,T3, Keto combo for fat loss and I'm curious as to some of the results any of you have had as well as your suggestions for the dosages and cycling for the maximum results. Openly, I'm new to this and like anytime I'm about to do something new I always like to have a bit of research done first.
What a few of my friends have suggested is to pretty much just go with what they did, which was 1 ML in the morning and 1 ML in the afternoon with the Albut. And when you do the second ML in the afternoon do 1 ML of the T3 at that time. And to go 2 weeks on, 2 weeks off unless you use the Keto as well.
Idea's please? - 09-11-2009, 07:21 PM
I've also used the search feature and read the other articles, but im curious about people who've already tested this out with Alb/T3. I've also read about Triax, and I've considered that but I haven't been able to find a source.

The merge control models proposed for work zones are classified into two types (Hard Control Merge (HCM) model and Soft Control Merge (SCM) model) according to their own control intensity and are compared with a new model, called Individual Subjective Initiative Merge (ISIM) model, which is based on the linear lane-changing probability strategy in the merging area. The attention of this paper is paid to the positive impact of the individual subjective initiative for the whole traffic system. Three models (ISIM, HCM, and SCM) are established and compared with each other by two order parameters, that is, system output and average vehicle travel time. Finally, numerical results show that both ISIM and SCM perform better than HCM. Compared with SCM, the output of ISIM is 20 vehicles per hour higher under the symmetric input condition and is more stable under the asymmetric input condition. Meanwhile, the average travel time of ISIM is 2000 time steps less under the oversaturated input condition.

Some two years in the making and add another two for development (at least), Alfonso Cuarón's "Gravity" has finally scored an October 4, 2013 release date. Originally pegged for a November 2012 release, Warner Bros. took it off last year's calendar for unspecified reasons, but most presumed this was due to the VFX-heavy nature of the film that was shot completely in soundstages and in 3D. Starring Sandra Bullock and George Clooney, "Gravity" has been a long time coming and so much so it's taken on mythic proportions in some corners fo the blogosphere that have declared it a kind of Kubrick-ian return. It probably doesn't hurt that Cuarón hasn't made a movie since 2006's "Children of Men." Six years between movies will create legend and buzz.
Here's the official synopsis via Warner Bros.
Dr. Ryan Stone (Sandra Bullock) is a brilliant medical engineer on her first shuttle mission, with veteran astronaut Matt Kowalsky (George Clooney). But on a seemingly routine spacewalk, disaster strikes. The shuttle is destroyed, leaving Stone and Kowalsky completely alone—tethered to nothing but each other and spiraling out into the blackness. The deafening silence tells them they have lost any link to Earth…and any chance for rescue. As fear turns to panic, every gulp of air eats away at what little oxygen is left. But the only way home may be to go further out into the terrifying expanse of space.
We read an early draft of the script ages ago and while somewhat of an actioner, it'll be interesting to see how much it's changed since then. That weekend at the beginning of October, "Gravity" will go up against "Sin City: A Dame to Kill For," Relativity's "Paranoia," the Vince Vaughn comedy "The Delivery Man" and Fox's "Star Wars: Episode III – Revenge of the Sith (3D)." We know what we'll be paying a ticket for. Sorry, George. "Gravity," which is on our list of the 50 Most Anticipated Films To Watch In 2013, will hit theaters in IMAX & 3D. [BOM]

FINDLAY The University of Findlay said it will spend about $7.2 million on construction projects on campus during the next fiscal year.
At a two-day meeting last week, trustees approved the projects as part of the board s annual budget meeting.
The projects include a $3 million renovation of the former Owens Community College property which it agreed to purchase for $4.1 million last month. UF plans to utilize the 60,000-square-foot classroom building that has been vacant since Owens moved from its campus adjacent to UF to a new location on Bright Road.
Other projects include a $2.2 million addition at the Mazza Museum of International Art from Children s Picture Books, which is being funded through contributions, and the construction of an arena at the western equestrian farm for $500,000.
UF officials said they also plan to spend about $1.5 million on maintenance and improvement projects throughout campus and about $1 million to re-equip basic science and other laboratories.

FeatureLong Live the RevolutionThe 10th annual Revolutions International Theatre FestivalThe mark of brilliance may just be that it stays with you. It affects the way you think about something or, perhaps, the way you look at everything. You contemplate it after you've engaged with it. Your future actions and interactions are, in some regard, altered by having experienced it. As it so happens, this is also the mark of revolution. Coincidence? Certainly not in the case of the Revolutions International Theatre Festival. Founded by Tricklock Company back when it was still known as Riverside Ensemble, Revolutions is a truly global gathering. This year, the festival's 10th, includes contributors from our home sweet home, as well as Canada, Colombia, Poland and Israel—in other words: theater from four continents. Though every group involved brings something characteristically distinctive to the stage, there are common threads among them. Namely, they demonstrate art as a holistic, sensory and cerebral pursuit of a different truth. The ultimate aim of their artistry is to change the way we understand theater and, in so doing, to change the way we understand the world. Cynics might dismiss this objective as preposterous; you might even conceive of theater as trivial or frivolous—and far from mind- (let alone life- or globe-) altering. But look back, behind you, before you. Art, in all its manifold incarnations, is our voice. It is our inheritance and our endowment, surviving generations, embodying and preserving our progress. It is very often the impetus for palpable and progressive social change—for the realization of a different truth and the creation of a different consciousness. Over the course of 19 days, Revolutions International Theatre Festival offers you the opportunity to share these realizations and take part in this artistic brilliance. So, accept. Engage. Contemplate. And long live the revolution.
