Even if you have been battling addiction to opiates for years it is never too late to get help. The Wellington treatment center will be able to help by providing a safe method and friendly environment to recover from this dangerous addiction.
People become addicted to opiates because the body builds a tolerance to the medication. A pain that once required two pills to cope with will soon need four pills then six pills and then before you know it you are utterly dependent upon those little white pills. Opiate addicts require careful monitoring as they go through the detox program because the body is so dependent upon the drug. Our treatment facilities are staffed with medical professionals trained to handle the detox process of opiate addicts.
As you go through the treatment program you may find that the initial pain that was the reason you turned to opiates is still present. We offer alternative holistic remedies to treat your pain so that you do not have to seek relief in a bottle. The holistic approach focuses on you as a whole being not just the part of your body that is in pain but your mental and emotional state as well. This is the best way to deal with pain and leads to recovery without the need for opiates or other drugs.
After the detox process we are able to teach you these holistic methods so that you can take control of your own pain management without having the need to turn to drugs.
The therapies we offer include:
• Nutrition and diet plans • Acupuncture • Exercises to help ease the pain • EMDR therapies to better help you cope with the pain and the addiction
Becoming addicted to opiates and other types of pain killers is not uncommon. It is possible to recover from this addiction and take control of your life. Many fear that recovery means that they must face the pain that first drew them to the addiction but it is possible to recover from your addiction and the pain. It is all about control. We are able to show you how to take that control to make a positive impact upon your life. All you have to do is take that first step and seek help.

Jay Leno to retire and Jimmy Fallon to replace him as tonight show host?
Is Fallon ever funny?
__________________________________________________ ____________ -Jay Leno retirement coming in 2014, Jimmy Fallon to take over 'Tonight Show' - report If sources are to be believed, a Jay Leno retirement announcement could be coming soon. A new rumor claims that NBC is planning to announce in May that the 2013-14 television season will be Leno's last. The Hollywood Reporter got a denial from NBC about the planned shift, but did hear from "two high-level industry sources" that the idea is to phase Leno out and Jimmy Fallon in as "The Tonight Show" host next year. He would start at the gig with a soft launch in summer 2014. Again, this is far from confirmed, but it makes some sense considering Jimmy Kimmel's recent shift to 11:35 p.m. Kimmel is popular with younger audiences in a way similar to Fallon, so NBC reportedly wants to make sure it doesn't lose that viewership entirely by the time someone does replace Leno. "The more time Jimmy Kimmel is in that slot, the more the young audience goes that way, the harder it is for Jimmy [Fallon] to keep that audience," a source says. Another "network veteran" adds, "Kimmel has done extremely well. Jay wins overall, but on any given night, it's neck-and-neck in 18-49. I understand where they might have fear and also feel that they own the solution [in Fallon.]" THR speculates that NBC could announce Leno's departure and Fallon's takeover on or before May upfronts. NBC would then "get the benefit of selling Jay's last year -- again," an insider claims. Do you think Fallon would be a suitable replacement for Leno? Kimmel likely does. http://blog.zap2it.com/frominsidethe...---report.html |
Howard Stern to replace Jimmy Fallon on 'Late Night?'
http://www.upi.com/Entertainment_New...4931362603573/ |
its fucked up how they did Conan dirty when HE was the OG successor. i dont know for sure but i think its more NBC than Leno cuz Conan wasnt gettin the ratings NBC was looking for.
I used to hate Fallon on SNL, but I have to admit, his show is pretty good. The Roots? Beer Pong with Betty White? It could be worse. It could be Leno.
^^ yeah same here. and he seems to know real hip hop. and most definitely a wu fan. he looked like a fat kid in a candystore when he had wu on lol
Duide you see when RzA and Ghost and him played that soccer with the fat air suits on?

Zahoor ul Akhlaq: "the most significant influence on contemporary art" |
Akhlaq with his daughter, Jahanara |
Sheherezade, and a guest lighting a lamp on the tenth death anniversary |
Zahoor ul Akhlaq and Sheherezade: reflections of times past |
Jinnah from Akhlaq's Triptych |
Friends at Akhlaq and Jahanara's tenth anniversary: Naazish Ata-Ullah, Naeem Haq and Salima Hashmi (inset) the dancing lamps |
Ten years ago, on a grey, brutal January day, the great artist, Akhlaq, and his gifted daughter, Jahanara were shot dead … the innate humanism of Akhlaq and his family was shattered to bits, much like the splintered state of Pakistan, where art and life are either marginalised, silenced or blown to pieces |
We as a society excel at tottering on the shores of forgetfulness; and as a state we are constantly in denial, quick in erasing history lest it haunt us and ask unsettling questions. The National Art Gallery in Islamabad, built after decades of inaction, needs to reclaim Akhlaq's work and bring it back to Pakistan |
A decade later, Akhlaq's immense legacy is all but invisible, thus marking a post-death demise. How and when did we come to such a pass? This is what the conspiracy of circumstance and the context of Pakistan have done. "The single most important influence on contemporary Pakistani art," in the words of Salima Hashmi, renowned artist and Akhlaq's close associate, is absent from art discourse. It is this apathy that I wish to remember on his tenth death anniversary, along with the infinite spaces that his art nurtured and created for generations to come.
As an avid student of Pakistan's avante garde modernist, Shakir Ali, Akhlaq was destined to radicalise the sensibilities of art movements and pedagogy at Lahore's famous National College of the Arts (NCA). The young artist, Akhlaq, had the good fortune to live in Shakir Ali's home in Lahore's Garden Town suburb for quite some time, and this is where he imbibed the iconoclasm and poetry of Ali's work and continued the experimentation right into the mainstream of art education. Akhlaq's early work bears testimony to the influences of the newly emerging school of modernism shaped by the visions of Shamza, Ali Imam, Ahmad Pervaiz, Moyene Najmi and others.
For this writer it was a gargantuan challenge to recount his legacy and re-discover him. Walking into the room where Akhlaq and Jahanara were ruthlessly murdered gave rise to mixed feelings. Akhlaq's wife, the eclectic potter-artist Sheherezade has been struggling to deal with a life permanently altered on that fateful day of January 1999. The house, painted in bright colours, displays the vibrant world that Sheherezade has created; memory mixed with longing, recreating Jahanara's dance, using colours from Zahoor's palette for embellishment.
As we commenced our conversation, we soon found ourselves lost. The little corners of silence between sentences were filled with the mysteries of Akhlaq that still remain undiscovered, at least in large measure. Sheherezade told me about his journeys from Delhi to Karachi in the forties and eventually to the NCA in the sixties, where he found his voice. In 1966, Zahoor was awarded a British Council Scholarship and joined the Hornsey College of Art, to be followed by a stint at the Royal College of Art. This is where the interaction with the British Museum and its priceless, tragic collection of Mughal miniatures opened new vistas for Akhlaq. Once back in Pakistan, he started to imbibe the miniature forms, spaces and poetries into his style, as well as setting up the miniature department at the NCA.
As an exuberant and bohemian student, this was the time when Sheherezade met Akhlaq, found herself under his spell and defied her family to marry him at the Karachi flat of Shahid Sajjad, the eminent sculptor. Jamil Naqsh was also there and the group of friends had a long, fun-filled day on the shores of the salty Arabian Sea. Sheherezade had a glint in her eye as she narrated the event before she remarked: "Zahoor was the first and perhaps the last interesting, ah the most interesting, person I have ever met. I have never found anyone as enchanting as him."
Akhlaq was a man of few words, another trait he might have inherited from Shakir Ali. Space, silences and reflection defined much of his time. This is not to say that he was not sociable. His closest friends were at the NCA, with whom he spent a fun-filled time when he was not delving into philosophy, or creating his masterpieces in states of frenzy, intoxication or exceptional lucidity.
Sheherezade further mused how the NCA and Zahoor developed a symbiotic relationship that was mutually transformational. Akhlaq was a "peculiar and an unusual husband, but he enabled me to develop a parallel life and thus expanded my life-experience". Like his other relationships, the marital partnership was also intense yet parallel to his inner life. Zahoor needed a lot of space, "the space of night" in the words of his biographer, and sometimes he did not get it. It was one of those extraordinary experiences that entail a life of one's own.
Added to this was Zahoor's immense knowledge, spanning subjects as varied as art, history, philosophy and calligraphy, a discipline in which received training from an early age from the renowned calligrapher, Yousaf Dehlavi. His appreciation of the skill and intimacy with discipline therefore were passed on to him in his childhood. Behind the screen of tradition, and going back to the roots, was also the classic scar of migration and uprooting. Akhlaq's family left their beloved Delhi for Karachi at the gruesome moment of Partition in 1947. The nostalgia and the sense of separation which underlies Akhlaq's work were pervasive. Later, his various travels to different parts of the world intensified both the rootedness and the contemporaneousness in his work.
Such profound influences – of heritage, training, travel and intense relationships – enabled Akhlaq's work to straddle both the traditional and the contemporary, encompassing visual traditions that represented as well as defied the geographical and political boundaries of Pakistan. Akhlaq could concurrently weave the discipline of Islamic geometry, the iconography of the Mughal manuscript, the well-worn genres of European painting and Pakistan's colonial heritage all into one space, and yet there was space left over to express the contemporary artist of today. There is not a single moment when his work is bound by the constraints of the past or the woes of the present; there was synthesis, a fluid one, merging the thousand years of Pakistan's heritage onto speaking canvases. Rashid Rana, the young artist of global recognition and an avid student of Akhlaq narrated how the latter helped his generation liberate itself from the onerous baggage of tradition by reinventing 'tradition' itself.
Along the fascinating journey of Akhlaq's creativity, the two daughters of the couple, Jahanara and Nur Jehan, help deepen that quest for equilibrium, the synthesis of the old and the new; of creativity and the institution of marriage. Concurrently, Akhlaq's genius flourished as an outstanding sculptor, printmaker and painter, and he received multiple awards within Pakistan and abroad. By the 1980s, he was criss-crossing disciplines and art forms, thus delving deeper into Islamic art, painting, printmaking and sculpture. In 1989, Akhlaq joined Yale University, USA, to pursue post-doctoral research at its Institute of Sacred Music, Religion and the Arts. After retiring from NCA as the head of the Fine Arts Department in 1991, Akhlaq proceeded to Bilkent University, Ankara, as a visiting professor, and by the mid nineties, the family had landed in Canada. Here, Akhlaq received an appointment at the Ontario College of Art in Toronto. The return to Pakistan in the late 1990s was the finest of hours, when he Continue reading "Rediscovering Zahoor ul Akhlaq (1941-1999)"

Irvine, Calif., Aug. 19, 2010 A UC Irvine study is the first to demonstrate that human neural stem cells can restore mobility in cases of chronic spinal cord injury, suggesting the prospect of treating a much broader population of patients.
Previous breakthrough stem cell studies have focused on the acute, or early, phase of spinal cord injury, a period of up to a few weeks after the initial trauma when drug treatments can lead to some functional recovery.
The UCI study, led by Aileen Anderson and Brian Cummings of the Sue & Bill Gross Stem Cell Research Center, is significant because the therapy can restore mobility during the later chronic phase, the period after spinal cord injury in which inflammation has stabilized and recovery has reached a plateau. There are no drug treatments to help restore function in such cases.
The study appears in the open-access, peer-reviewed journal PLoS ONE and is available online at http://dx.plos.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0012272.
The Anderson-Cummings team transplanted human neural stem cells into mice 30 days after a spinal cord injury caused hind-limb paralysis. The cells then differentiated into neural tissue cells, such as oligodendrocytes and early neurons, and migrated to spinal cord injury sites. Three months after initial treatment, the mice demonstrated significant and persistent recovery of walking ability in two separate tests of motor function when compared to control groups.
"Human neural stem cells are a novel therapeutic approach that holds much promise for spinal cord injury," said Anderson, associate professor of physical medicine & rehabilitation and anatomy & neurobiology at UCI. "This study builds on the extensive work we previously published in the acute phase of injury and offers additional hope to those who are paralyzed or have impaired motor function."
"About 1.3 million individuals in the U.S. are living with chronic spinal cord injury," added Cummings, associate professor of physical medicine & rehabilitation and anatomy & neurobiology. "This latest study provides additional evidence that human neural stem cells may be a viable treatment approach for them."
The research is the latest in a series of collaborative studies conducted since 2002 with StemCells Inc. that have focused on the use of StemCells' human neural stem cells in spinal cord injury and resulted in multiple co-authored publications. StemCells Inc., based in Palo Alto, Calif., is engaged in the research, development and commercialization of stem cell therapeutics and tools for use in stem cell-based research and drug discovery.
According to Dr. Stephen Huhn, vice president and head of the central nervous system program at StemCells Inc., "the strong preclinical data we have accumulated to date will enable our transition to a clinical trial, which we plan to initiate in 2011."

Hi, I'm new to this forum, and pretty new to both anime and manga. I am hoping some folks here and help give me a sanity check, because I'm pretty confused.
I have seen episodes 1-24 of the Kuroshitsuji anime and read up to ch. 39 of the manga (and skipped ahead to see how ch. 43 ends as well). --Did Yana Toboso have any say in the characters and storyline of the anime? Cause it is way different than the manga. --Does the manga go beyond ch. 43? In English? Anywhere? Cause I don't see a proper ending to the manga (not like the anime, which did kinda sorta "end") Thanks! |

Okay, thread's kinda dead I guess. I did just get a partial answer to my second question elsewhere. It seems like the story is still ongoing, at least in the serialized English version in Yen Plus. Does any one know if the Japanese storyline has concluded?

As stated Kuro manga is still ongoing, chap 44 was recently released. Dont quote me on this but I believe 9 times outta 10 the mangaka has little influence on what the studio does with the anime vers. So I doubt Toboso had any say in it. I do know she did the character design for season 2.

Hey so I noticed that this thread says "season 1" and the torrent says only 24 episodes http://www.animesuki.com/series.php/1302.html from 2008
As you guys can see here, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_Butler#Anime there was a 12 episode 2nd season that aired from July-September 2010. I can see people discussing in this thread "does the story continue?" and "there was more in the manga" well this may be the adaptation of it. So: has the 2nd season also been licensed, or is that something that could be listed on animesuki? FireChick announced the licensing in march, this means the license was purchased before season 2 aired in Japan. So I'm wondering if Funimation bought the license for season 2 yet? |

Considering that season one LE sold out crazy fast and some people have been seeing screenshots from season two in the BB ads, I think that Funimation did get DVD and streaming rights. Also, I think AS doesn't torrent series that have even just a streaming-only license. Oh, hope this helps!

Carry on Tuesday #46 ~ This week our prompt is the opening of The Confessions of Max Tivoli by Andrew Sean Greer, 2004:
We are each the love of someone's life
No sign of movement
No sign of human footprints
No sign of tensions
A time to reflect
A time to renew life vows
A time for re-birth
In the cold dark lights
Loneliness is hollowness
Fathomless chasms
Empowered with fears
Empowered with shapeless sylphs
Spun imaginings
But we're reality
Solid possibilities
Solid living gold
We are special golds
Each the love of someone's life
Once, now or to be
Let the breezes sigh
A soul needs some healing time
Space and dimension
Is it called a motorbike?

Construction of the Neo-gothic-style St Mark's Anglican Church was commenced in 1892 and the first service was held in the church in April 1893. The church was constructed using rusticated limestone with red brick quoins and features rendered parapets at the gable end. St Mark's is the Mornington Peninsula's third oldest Anglican stone church and is only pre-dated by St John's in Sorrento (1874) and St Andrew's in Rye (1882). - Extract from Heritage Australia

Very sad news indeed. Robbie Williams actually mentioned it last night in Glasgow as Mark had also been the architect on his solo stage productions. Actually met him in Gatwick en-route to the Turin 360 gig in Aug 2010 and he seemed a thoroughly decent guy who will be a huge loss to both the music business and the wider entertainment industry.

my prayers are with Mark's family and friends.
His vision of stage design was awesome. We have been honoured as U2 fans to have had some of the most amazing stages come to life under his imagination, hard work and dedication to his craft. The impossible was made possible, and the joy those creations brought to us many is his legacy.
Vale Mark Fisher.

U2 Manager Paul McGuinness on Mark Fisher
U2 manager Paul McGuinness had a long and fruitful relationship with late, great architect/set designer Mark Fisher, who passed away on Tuesday (June 25) and was invovled with every U2 tour since 1991. Here's his thoughts on Fisher's "genius."
"I had known Mark in a previous life. Before I managed U2, back in 1973 I worked on a movie called "Zardoz," made in Ireland by the director John Boorman. It's kind of a cult movie now, sci-fi, Sean Connery, Charlotte Rampling were in it. In those days, Mark Fisher was a student at the Architectural Association in London. He and a couple of other kind of hippies from the Architectural Association worked on that movie building inflatable buildings -- it was set in the future. I always thought [the Rolling Stones tours] was where they developed the technology, and John Boorman must have heard about it and brought them in. That was the first time I met him, and then some years later he cropped up in rock 'n roll. We started working with him in 1991 and he was involved in every production since then."
On U2 360: "What happened with that production, we only played football stadiums, and we increased the capacity of those stadiums around the world by abut 20%. Unfortunately, because we sold out all those shows, in every city we played, the authorities – the transportation, the highway people, the cops – they never took it quite seriously. We told them, 'This is not just another sold out rock 'n roll event, it's not the same as a sports event in that stadium. It's 20% more people, you have to be ready for that.' And they hardly ever were, there were a lot of delays around the world on that tour."
"Mark was really a genius, that was the key to it. He was an architect with an extraordinary imagination. Some rock 'n roll production people are very set in their ways, the band or the artist comes to them with an idea, 'How can you execute it?' Some [set designers], I'm afraid, say, 'Oh, you can't do that, that's never been done before.' But Mark was never like that. He turned everyone's wild ideas into steel and lumber and canvas reality. He built extraordinary things for us."

ROLLING STONES STAGE lighting supremo Patrick Woodroffe and U2/Pink Floyd set designer Willie Williams have expressed their sadness at the death of Mark Fisher, the man who revolutionized their craft with his designs for the Stones' 1989 Steel Wheels jaunt.
"It's certainly the end of an era," Williams told MOJO, "and in ways we haven't yet even begun to appreciate yet. I'll be honest – I've found myself thinking over the past few days about, 'What happens now?'"
Described by Mick Jagger as the man who instigated the "Star Wars" arms-race era of rock'n'roll spectacle, Fisher was an architect by training and used his engineering knowledge to rethink stage presentations from the ground up.
"He had this combination of courage and expertise," said Woodroffe. "He had this enormous imagination, but everything he proposed was possible. You know, anyone can take an envelope and draw a picture of a pyramid, and say it's 200ft high, but it doesn't mean anything unless you can actually build it."
Fisher designed or co-designed sets for Pink Floyd's 1980 The Wall tour, the Stones' Steel Wheels, Bridges To Babylon and A Bigger Bang, and U2's groundbreaking ZooTV, PopMart and 360° tours. Other Fisher projects included Lady Gaga's Born This Way Ball and 2000's Millennium Dome show with Peter Gabriel. Fisher died in his sleep at the Marie Curie Hospice in Hampstead, London, on June 25, but was working on Robbie Williams' current show right up to the end.
"I remember attending a presentation with him once which was utterly rejected," Williams fondly recalled. "Whatever we proposed was just a no, not even a retrievable no, just a no. After we came out someone said to us, 'You must be so disappointed, after all that work you put in.' And Mark said, 'No, you don't understand – I just like designing things.' Mark just loved the process."
The list of Fisher's unique achievements as a rock designer includes the "zoomorphic cladding" of U2's 360° tour "Claw" canopy and the monster low-res LED screens of the group's legendarily eye-boggling PopMart shows.
"In scale of engineering, U2's 360° is obviously the crowning glory," said Williams. "We called it the Beijing Olympics of rock. But even though it's the pinnacle of something it's also the end of a journey, because nobody in their right mind is going to attempt something on that scale again. But PopMart was the pivotal moment. We were interested in LED technology and Mark had come back from Japan having seen blue LED in production at a reasonable cost, and with red and green already existing he realized we could now produce video. He postulated from scratch the idea of this massive low-resolution video screen that could fill one end of the stadium. At the time it was science fiction."
Fisher worked closely with musicians to match their thinking with visual effects, and enjoyed a fruitful symbiosis with the Stones. But a 25-year creative relationship is now at an end.
"The Stones were all very upset," said Patrick Woodroffe, "particularly Charlie. Charlie did at lot of work on the shows with Mark, Mick and myself and had very much the same sensibilities as Mark. Mark was a quiet, gentle person."
Clients and colleagues are agreed that, with the waning of rock'n'roll's imperial phase, we may not see Fisher's like again.
"I always thought of Mark as this explorer, a 19th century explorer," concluded Woodroffe. "You'd see him on some foreign field, striding along with his panama hat and his sketchbook, looking to change the world on behalf of England and the rock business, and he did."

The Dropped Third Strike (D3S) rule in ASA Fast Pitch Softball is listed in Rule 8, Section 1B:
The Batter becomes a Batter-Runner when the catcher fails to catch the third strike before the ball touches the ground and there are: 1. Fewer than two outs and first base is not occupied at the time of the pitch, or 2. Any time there are two outs. |
It is pretty straightforward. If there is nobody on first and two strikes on the batter, or if there are two outs and two strikes on the batter, then the D3S is in play. Fails to catch the third strike before the ball touches the ground means the ball can bounce in front of the plate or right in front of the catcher, as well as any passed balls or wild pitches.
If the game has only one umpire, then the umpire will only signal with his hand that strike three is called, which may look like an out signal depending on the umpire. The catcher, who cannot see the signal unless she turns around to look at it, should just know when D3S is applicable and act accordingly. Ditto for the coach do not get confused because the umpire seems to be calling the batter out, because he is not. With two or more umpires, the base umpire will make a fist by his belt to indicate that the third strike was caught before it touched the ground as an aid for the plate umpire to help with the call. Otherwise, he will point to the ground indicating that the third strike was dropped.
To defend this play, the both the catcher and the first basemans reactions are key. The catcher must know when the D3S could be in play, and respond immediately if it occurs. If there is any doubt whether she caught the ball before it hit the ground or not, she should immediately tag the batter just to be sure. This is a crucial habit for a catcher to develop, as it can head off needing to throw to first base, which is obviously a more difficult play to make than just tagging the batter as she starts to run. If there are two outs, the catcher should know to throw down to first (if she cannot apply the tag herself) unless bases are loaded, when she just has to touch home plate when she has the ball.
The first baseman should read where the ball goes if it kicks away from the catcher, and set up on first base (or the orange safety base) as appropriate. If the catcher collects the ball to the left of the first base line (when looking from first base to home), the first baseman should set up to receive the throw in foul territory and yell Inside! Inside! to tell the catcher where to throw the ball. If the orange safety base is used, she is allowed to set up on the orange safety base in this case. If the catcher gets the ball on the line or to the right of the first base line, she should yell Outside! Outside! and set up on first base as she would for a throw from one of the infielders.
Errors are part of the game, but a misplayed D3S can be particularly painful to watch. Make sure players, particularly the catcher and first baseman, understand the rule and what to do if it occurs during the game.

Lahore, Feb 18(ANI): Pakistan's Punjab Chief Minister Mian Shahbaz Sharif has said that President Asif Ali Zardari and Interior Minister Rehman Malik wanted him to declare that double murder-accused US national Raymond Davis enjoyed diplomatic immunity.
In an interview with a TV channel, Shahbaz talked about the pressure on the Punjab Government on the Davis issue, which, he said, could be judged from the recent statement of US President Barack Obama and the visit of US Senator John Kerry to the province.
Malik had called him on the night between 29th and 30th January, The Nation quoted Shahbaz, as saying.
According to the CM, the Interior Minister told him that the federal government was going to grant immunity to Davis, to which Shahbaz replied that the provincial government had taken his case to the court.
Following this conversation, an 'important personality from Islamabad' told him that Zardari wanted that Davis should be granted immunity, Shahbaz said.
He added that if the federal government wanted to give immunity to Davis, this could have been done on the very first day of the incident.
The CM further said that instead of surrendering to a superpower, it was better to accept an honourable death, and vowed that his government would not compromise on national honour.
Shahbaz said there could not be two standards of justice: one for the rich and other for the poor, and pointed out that the detained US official had killed two Pakistanis while a US consulate vehicle had crushed another innocent citizen while reportedly racing to Davis' aid.
He said that when the provincial government asked the US consulate to hand over the vehicle involved in the accident, it said that the Punjab government should better write to the federal government in this regard.
The Punjab government wrote five letters to the federal government on this matter but failed to get any response. Shahbaz added. (ANI)

RAID 1 is best used for fast recovery, not backup. RAID 1 is designed for getting the OS drive back online within a few seconds after a failure, or in business situations where the data on the storage drive needs to be restored ASAP. For a home user who wants a backup solution, I recommend installing storage drives in non-RAID mode and synchronizing their data a few times per day. This way you don't have to worry about finding an identical make and model drive / motherboard / controller card if something dies. If you are using Linux / UNIX / Mac OS X you can run rsync as a cron job in the background once or twice per day. If you are in Windows, the freeware Syncback program is a very solid solution.

Publication Type: Peer Reviewed Journal Publication Acceptance Date: 3/1/2006 Publication Date: 3/14/2007 Citation: MacNeil, M.D., Leesburg, V.L., Mott, T.B. 2007. Validating the breeding value for maternal preweaning gain in beef cattle with measured milk production. South African Journal of Animal Science 36(Issue 5 Supple. 1):1-5. Interpretive Summary: A maternal genetic effect on preweaning gain is predicted as an indicator of milk production by beef cattle. This statistical prediction is not universally accepted by breeders. In this research, the predicted maternal genetic effects on preweaning gain were compared to breeding values for milk production estimated by the weigh-suckle-weigh technique. Heritability estimates for maternal effects on preweaning gain and milk production were virtually identical and the genetic correlation between them approached unity. Similar results were also obtained in two independent investigations. Thus, it is concluded that breeding values for preweaning gain are useful predictors of breeding values for milk production. Beef cattle breeders can have every confidence that their use of breeding values for maternal preweaning gain will be highly effective in changing the genetic potential for milk production of their cows. Technical Abstract: The objective of this research was to validate the maternal breeding value for preweaning gain as a predictor of genetic differences in milk production. Phenotypic variation in preweaning gain and in milk production measured by the weigh-suckle-weigh method was partitioned into genetic and non-genetic components. Data were from the Line 1 Hereford cattle maintained by USDA-ARS at Miles City, Montana, USA. Data collected through 2005 included 6835 and 692 observations of preweaning gain and milk production from 2172 and 403 dams and cows since 1935 and 1994, respectively. Data were analyzed using a Gibbs sampler for multiple-trait animal models. Results are reported as mean ± SD derived from the posterior distribution of parameter estimates. Phenotypic variances of preweaning gain and milk production were 476.3 kg2 and 8.88 kg2, respectively. Heritability estimates for direct and maternal preweaning gain, and milk production were 0.13 ± 0.03, 0.25 ± 0.04, and 0.25 ± 0.06, respectively. Estimates of genetic and phenotypic correlations between preweaning gain and milk production were 0.80 ± 0.08 and 0.37± 0.04, respectively. The difference between phenotypic and genetic correlations may provide insight into confidence of breeders in genetic evaluation of maternal preweaning gain. Breeding value for maternal preweaning gain was highly predictive of breeding value for milk production. Selection based on the maternal breeding value for preweaning gain may be nearly as effective in changing milk production as direct selection. |

Tropical Fish Keeping - Aquarium fish care and resources
- Freshwater and Tropical Fish
- - I Need Some Fish Recommendations
I Need Some Fish Recommendations Hello everyone! I currently have a freshwater 90 gal tank and I'm looking to add some fish to it. It currently has: 1 White Sev 1 Leporinus 1 Krib 1 Blood Parrot 2 Black Skirts 2 Rosy Barbs 1 Very large Tinfoil Barb 2 Large Silver Dollars I'm looking for some fish that are semi-aggressive, but not overy aggressive that will cause problems with the rest of the fish. But also some that aren't too docile that they get bullied by the Leporinus, Sev, and Parrot. Any suggestions? Thanks :) |
I would get some catfish species in there. Maybe a silvertipped shark or a pictus cat. If you can find a shovelnose cat, that would be awesome though he may suck up your tetras and barbs depending on their size. I'm a huge fan of bichirs, they have the most personality out of any fish i've seen. They grow quickly and are fun to watch. You'd probably be ok with some loaches too. Balas would go well in there too. Keep in mind, your rosey barbs and black skirts will probably get too small for some of those fish and may get picked on. You may want to consider moving them eventually. |
Wow, your tinfoil hasn't eaten the tetras or other smaller fish? Pictus cats are good, but they will need a daytime hiding spot. Rainbowfish are also pretty good in a semi-aggressive tank. Bala sharks would make a good addition as well. Some of the smaller knifefish would do well (be careful, several species get well over 24"). |
Thanks for the reply :) However, I should clarify that I want to definitely continue to use flakes or some dry foods because it would be somewhat of a hassle to get feeder fish or live food because of where the closest lfs is located. I also do have a Clown Loach in there too I forgot to mention. So really, I need some fish that won't be too inconvenient for me to care for, and that would bring some more character to my tank. |
I would advise against using feeder fish anyways. As they are meant to be food, some places raise them in poor conditions so it's a risk to your fish. If you decide to do feeder fish, raise them yourself. As for "live" food, have you looked at frozen? Even as a suppliment. It's always good to the fish to provide them treats every now and then. |
Even something frozen would be difficult for me to keep. Anything dried that I can keep under the tank is perfect. I've always loved Bichirs and especially the Shovelnose, but I'm not sure whether their diet can be primarily dried foods - I'm really no fish expert ;) Also, I'm also a cichlid fan, so those I would be quite open to as well. Edit: I also completely forgot to list my scavenger fish! I have a medium sized pleco, and some type of pleco/catfish that is very dark, almost black, with small white spots on him - he's very boney looking, but I'm not sure of the species. |
yeh i would go with a bichir myself i agree with heintz they are a really cool fish. but other than that its up to you but dont go off and buy a red tail catfish please if u see them they get huge |
yeah red tails are ginormous. You can try dry foods with teh species I mentioned but some prefer frozen or live. DO you not own a freezer at home? My bichir eats flakes and algea wafers and even veggies I put in there but that is really rare. I mainly feed him frozen but he pretty much eats anything. some bichirs will ONLY eat frozen or live though. A lot of them you can get to eat sinking shrimp pellets though. |
I guess i could try to accomodate using some type of frozen food - just as long as I dont need to feed my fish 10 different things at night. lol I really am somewhat stumped on what to get... A Bichir or large Cat might get too big for me to keep comfortably in my tank. I'm really leaning towards some semi-aggressive cichlid, but I'm not sure which. |
bichir wont get too big for your 90. |

High school hockey teams break the ice
Jeff Miller column: JSerra and Santa Margarita are 'trailblazers on a new path,' and having fun while doing it.
ALISO VIEJO — The places can be marked by monuments, the people by statues, the events by anniversaries.
And then sometimes history just happens, and that's enough all on its own.
"There were tons of people there," JSerra High's Zac Russell said. "It was an insane environment."
They skated out in opposing directions and contrasting colors and moved to opposite benches, this first-time occurrence an ice-breaker as much as a ground-breaker.
"We've had a good launch now," Russell's coach, Dave Karpa, said. "We want to build on this."
They played three periods of ice hockey unlike three periods ever played before. These were the first matching high school teams from Orange County.
"It was a surreal experience," Santa Margarita's Danny Boutoussov said. "We really did feel like trailblazers on a new path."
The first game — and by first we do mean of all-time — happened Sept. 26 at Anaheim Ice, a 5-2 JSerra victory. The two teams, the only ones currently representing O.C. high schools, met again Oct. 17, a 4-4 tie.
They are part of a program sponsored by the Ducks, with patches on each sleeve. JSerra is coached by Karpa, a former Duck. He is assisted by Guy Hebert, another former Duck. Santa Margarita is coached by Craig Johnson, yes, also a former Duck.
Though struggling at the start of their NHL season, the Ducks are a prep power play, with plans to expand this program to include more schools, both public and private. As for the Ice Lions and Eagles, they've been equipped with everything but webbed skates.
They are building this imported sport in the most basic and meticulous of ways — one ice cube at a time. Kids have played hockey in Orange County for years, just not in the colors of their high school.
JSerra debuted last fall, playing mostly against area club teams. Santa Margarita joined the Ice Lions this year.
"Hockey in Minnesota is like football in Texas," said Johnson, who grew up in the Land of 10,000 Lakes, all of which eventually freeze over, right? "I watched the Gophers and the North Stars, but the team I really watched was the high school team. I wanted to be out there with those guys."
When Johnson played in the state championship game back home, nearly 20,000 fans attended. The Ducks could fit 20,000 into their home arena only if they first sold out and then invited 1,000 pregnant women and counted each one as two.
Here's another comparison to consider: Ice time in Minnesota, where the winter highways are one red line short of being usable rinks, might be $125 an hour. Those 60 minutes here costs closer to $400.
Yet another contrast: There is no such place as Surf City, Canada.
"Where I grew up it was minus-20 and minus-30," said Karpa, who was born in Saskatchewan, a moose-infested land located, we believe, just north of Venus. "People weren't showing up at the rink in shorts and flip-flops.
"But these kids here, they get it. They really want to play hockey. This is their No. 1 sport."
Their stories are similar. Started playing at age 4 or 5. Began in roller hockey, eventually moved on to ice. Played in house leagues, then on traveling teams, then couldn't believe it when someone said the school was forming a team.
Even at JSerra, well into their second season, the Ice Lions still are becoming an acquired taste.
"Not a lot of people knew about it last year because we didn't really have anyone else to play," said Russell, a junior forward. "Now S.M. is playing and everybody wants to beat S.M. at our school. So everybody's fired up."
That first game between the two teams carried even more weight than just history. Santa Margarita dedicated this season to two students, Zach Raffety and Mark Motley, who were killed in an auto accident in the spring.
After an on-ice presentation, a banner bearing their names and the words "Forever Eagles" was lifted to the ceiling at Anaheim Ice.
"This team bonds more," Santa Margarita freshman Max Kilkuts said. "This is more of a team, you know? Everyone's closer. We all sit together during lunch at school. It's all good."
Boutoussov, a sophomore with the Eagles, epitomizes what this program is about. His parents are Russian but did not grow up playing hockey. His father, Dmitri, discovered the sport the way most of us discovered Simon Cowell — on TV.
The Ducks were playing the Red Wings when Dmitri realized his three sons should be playing hockey.
"I guess he had an epiphany," said Danny, the oldest Boutoussov boy. "I have two younger brothers (Paul and Mikey). Hopefully, they'll follow me and play ice hockey at Santa Margarita."
As for pops, Dmitri attempted to take up hockey, too, opting for the roller version. But he soon threw out his back and benched himself.
"Now he can just watch us," Danny said. "That's his hockey. He has to live through us."
It's not an altogether terrible fate, a father in Southern California left with no choice but to watch his son make hockey history.

Many thanks to ATI and Matthew Tippett in person for granted
The card was packed in medium-sized upscale case with a set of various cables (including HDTV).
400/1000 MHz speed and 16 pixel pipelines provide excellent shader performance.
Better quality and speed of OpenGL operations and Linux drivers make me glad :).
Having some experience of communication with UPS, I thought that the delivery should go on as usual (2-3 weeks). But russian representative office of FedEx surprised me a lot. As usual, the card arrived in Moscow in two days. After that it was delivering for 50 (fifty!) days crawling with enormous delays. Association with russian FedEx gives the impression that they are bored to death with delivering something. You could try to phone them for a week without a success (nobody is answering all day long). As a result you could get to know that: "the officer is on leave and I know nothing about your cargo..." At that I had to pay $180 for customs clearance and papers. Anyway I was happy that the card was delivered at least not for a year. 5 feedback messages | |
Part of Unigine code is available under GPL license for educational purposes or to be used in open source projects.
New scripting system (Unigine scripts) is fully compatible with old one but drastically faster.
Performance tests of Unigine scripts are available at
Unigine site.
Scripting integration is very easy.
This scripting system is a base of new GLSHell v2.0, which has not only increased speed, but new 'Mesh' class with hardware support of shadow volumes and EXT_framebuffer_object extension support.
There is a pack of demos requiring GeForce6 inside: There are also less hardware exacting demos: GLSHv2.0.tar.gz 1.1 Mb | 347915 downloads | 15 feedback messages | |
Simple technodemo: per-pixel subsurface scattering of light.
Diffuse light component is rendered into lightmap space.
Further passed and scattered light is calculated on the base of 3D lockup texture (128x128x256).
Calculation is not exactly correct from the physical point of view, because it's a simple exponent approximation ;)
Scene is rendered using ready light map.
The demo actively uses dynamic branching so it requires GeForce 6 :)
Without subsurface scattering it looks very
ugly ;)
Also you can download a little video (2.1Mb).

Never trust programmers about deadline of a project ;)
6 month gone and 1Mb of code was written...
Planned functionality of Engine_v0.3 was overfulfilled and there will be a lot of features in future ;)
But Engine is no longer an open source project.
All information about it could be found at official Unigine site.
Frustum.org will live and nothing terrible will happen ;). In a month it will be moved to a new hosting, so there could be short-term connectivity problems. 17 feedback messages | |
Realtime soft shadows of 4 sources of light.
It kills previous generation cards but works good at new ones, FPS is about >50 :)
It looks real awesome :) Shadowing basis is old lightmaps but calculations and smoothing are made by GPU.
It's a simple render into lightmap space, bluring takes place there also. Then a ready light map is used.
Each light map component corresponds one source of light. Thus the 4 sources bluring costs nothing.
Owners of ATI cards could download a little video (4 Mb),
because this demo doesn't work with ATI, though it have to ;)

Happy New Year for all! Let it be better and more creative than 2004 ! :) All of the good of Engine_v0.2 is here, other things are rewritten >:) Rewrite process tooks 5 months and there is some incomplete stuff still. Session in the University comes closer, I have less free time in the end of the year. Unfortunately I have no time for new demos. Release of 0.3 version postponed till next month or two. Right now the Engine is in the working condition (68kb of shaders, 970kb of cpp|h files, 56kb of scripts). You can download demos of beta-version here (640x480 39Mb) and here (320x240 15Mb, VERY low quality). 3 test scenes (graphics is at the "Cubes vs Spheres" level) contain: indoor/outdoor scenes; hardware stencil and depth shadows; point, cubemap modulated and directional lights; systems of particles; flares; HDR; physics and 2 fortuitous bugs :). Other features of the Engine, which are absent in demos: 3D sound, hardware skinning. There are no downloadable sources because it's a raw beta >:) All of test scenes and the Engine itself are controlled by scripts like that. 35 feedback messages | |
Great thanks to
for the
GeForce 6800 GT
, and especially thanks to Keith Galocy and Great Britain NVIDIA office.
This splendid card surpasses my old
for 2-4 times.
I had the same feelings when I switched from MX to FX family :)
FPS is exceeded in all of the demos and all of them are still without nv40 optimizations :)
The card has excellent overclocking potential - it runs without problems on 400/1100 MHz
(I didn't tryied further tests).
I have 300W power source (PowerMan) and there is no any troubles with power (AthlonXP 2500+, 2 HDD).
So, I could recommend it to everyone ;)
Some "warm" words about UPS: 27 September I received a phone call from Moscow concerning the load from Great Britain. I was informed that I had to pay rather large customs duty. So I was shocked a little and moved to the Tomsk custom-house, where I got to know that goods costing more than 300$ could be delayed during transfer (I guess UPS has collusion with customs). A week later UPS had sent bills to me (customs duties $125 + UPS service $65). Transferring money throught banks took another week. As a result a passage from Moscow to Tomsk lasted 18 days and costed $190. 18 feedback messages |

One more brief exploration of our materials, because we understand that outdoor furniture needs to be able to perform in a wide variety of conditions and climates.
We use 316 marine grade stainless steel because it's made for the ultra demanding boating and marine industry and has incredible good looks while maintaining the utmost in structural and finish integrity in difficult conditions. We offer this grade of stainless steel because it's the best material for use in our industry-it is made to last while looking excellent; incidentally, our competitors cannot or will not match the same premium grade of stainless steel on their products.

Oh, by the way: all of our Sunbrella® cushions (where a cushion is shown on site) are included in the price for in stock colors: taupe, canvas and coal. These colors are our standard in stock colors: All in stock, no waiting. We also offer the Sunbrella® line of colors (the #54 Colors) on our website, available for custom cushion orders. Our Seating Collections, Loungers and Chaises as shown on our website include this valuable upgrade. We can't find a competitor producing furniture at the same level of quality as we do, who will include cushions at no additional cost to the consumer.
Rehau®, Ecoline® and Viro® outdoor wicker fibers represent the peak of performance and looks in the outdoor wicker furniture category. High-grade polyethylene extruded for texture and through dyed, these fibers maintain their amazing looks and textures for an incredibly long time. It can withstand the most extreme weather and climates, but it's also among the easiest outdoor materials to care for. For ease of ownership, outdoor wicker furniture is an excellent choice.

Spaceport: One small step
A deal with Sierra Nevada Corp. gives reason to hope for Ellington Spaceport.
April 11, 2014 Updated: April 12, 2014 2:04pm
Photo: Smiley N. Pool, Staff
The announcement last year that Houston would invest in upgrading Ellington Airport to a spaceport sent a thrill through the hearts of Space City boosters. It also sent a chill to the pocketbook of anyone familiar with the eight underserved spaceports that already dot our country. Houston's history and workforce make us an ideal location for a suburban spaceport, but there simply isn't the demand for yet another specialized landing strip that cannot handle rocket launches. At its core, Ellington Spaceport is a project of the heart.

text: We saw the Citroen Hypnos Hybrid in a sneak reveal a few weeks back and were frankly concerned about the mental health of the designers. In person, the Hypnos is a little less groundbreaking and a lot more crossover. The outside is like a Francofied Chrysler Pacifica, while the interior is...you know, different. It's still trippy as hell, but the flowing neon seating motifs of the concept renderings become a little less exotic when they're displayed in an actual vehicle. As for the 200 HP hybrid powertrain said to deliver 60+ MPG, that's still pretty damn impressive.

After posting the second triple-double of his career on Tuesday night, Chicago Bulls center Joakim Noah had quite a bit to celebrate.
However, according to The Sporting News, the high-energy, enigmatic player will no longer celebrate with his 'finger guns' salute.
Why? Whatever celebrating he wanted to do on the court was tempered by the awful shooting tragedy that took place in Newtown, Connecticut, but to him, the issue runs far deeper than that.
"It wasn't just what happened in Connecticut," Noah said. "You just have to be kind of compassionate about what's going on, man. We have issues with guns. Gun violence in this country is out of control and you've just got to be sensitive to that. I love this country. This country did so much for me.
"But I think it's important to be more critical and we have issues. I feel just as American as I do French and the issues are complicated, but you've got to be sensitive and a lot of kids are dying. In Chicago, a lot of kids are dying in the streets, so that's why I'm not doing that anymore."
Noah's father, Yannick, was a French tennis star and his mother, Cecilia Rhode, was Miss Sweden 1978. Noah was born in New York but lived in France until he was 13. He holds French, Swedish, and American passports.
Now, he is an ambassador for all of his countries as well as the Chicago Bulls organization as a first-round draft pick and a vocal on-court leader.
With his decision to retire his 'finger guns' salute, Noah has shown that he is taking his position as a public figure seriously.
