This activity enables students to better understand the motion of the Sun and how we use it to measure time. Students create a "horizon calendar" at their school by carefully observing and recording the horizon and the Sun at sunset (or sunrise, for... (View More) early risers) over a period of weeks or months. Part 1 of this activity can be done as a whole group and involves selecting and drawing a detailed map of the site. Part 2 of this activity can be done as a whole group and involves determining the direction west and drawing the horizon line. Part 3 should be done by the teacher since it involves making weekly observations at sunset (or sunrise), which is outside of regular school hours. Part 4 can be done with the whole class and involves using the data from the observations to calculate the average rate of change in sunset time and respond to discussion questions. The activity is not time-consuming, but must be conducted over a period of at least a few weeks. It is best as a semester unit, or even a project for the entire school year. Also, the best time of year to run this activity is around the equinoxes: March and September. The lesson plan includes discussion questions, background information about desert horizons, and a math extension activity in which students calculate how the time of sunrise or sunset changes from day to day. This activity is the sixth lesson in the Ancient Eyes Look to the Skies curriculum guide. (View Less)
In this activity, students learn about the motion of the Sun in relation to the Earth, and how geographic directions are defined. Students use a tetherball pole (or an alternative) as a gnomon and the shadow the Sun casts to determine the exact... (View More) directions of north, south, east and west. The best tetherball pole to use is one that is in full sunlight for most of the day, one that is vertical and unbent, and one that is built on asphalt or concrete. This activity can be done as a whole class or individual project. Part 1 of this activity involves the initial marking of the tetherball pole shadow using chalk (about 10 minutes) and subsequent markings by one or two students (less than 5 minutes) every half hour over a four-hour period. Students keep a record of the gnomon's shadow by recording a sketch in their logs. Part 2 of this activity involves using a piece of string to connect the dots after the final observation, then bisecting this arc to determine north and south. The lesson includes discussion questions, background information about gnomons, and a math extension activity making and graphing the tetherball's shadow length at different times. This activity is the fifth lesson in the Ancient Eyes Look to the Skies curriculum guide. (View Less)
This is a lesson about radiation and the use of the scientific method to solve problems of too much radiation. Learners will build snow goggles similar to those used by the Inuit (designed to block unwanted light, while increasing the viewer's...

Traditional Metal Orthodontic Braces
White Orthodontic Braces
CustomMade Removable Appliances
Orthodontic treatment is used to correct crowded, crooked or misaligned teeth. While correcting these problems does result in a more attractive smile, the benefits to your lifelong dental health are much more important and reach far beyond cosmetics.
When an improper bite is left untreated, it can interfere with chewing and speaking and can lead to problems with the jaw. Additionally, crooked and crowded teeth are difficult to clean properly, leading to a greater chance for tooth decay.
At Southcoast Smiles, we have over 20 years' experience in orthodontic treatment for children as well as adults. Whether you choose traditional, clear (ceramic) braces or removable clear aligners, we're sure we can help you improve the look and feel of your smile.
Clear Correct is the invisible way to straighten your teeth without braces. Clear Correct uses a series of clear removable Aligners to straighten your teeth without metal wires or brackets. It has been proven effective in clinical research and in orthodontic practices nationwide. In fact, over 70% of all U.S. orthodontists are certified to treat patients with Clear Correct.
You wear each set of Aligners for about 2 weeks, removing them only to eat, drink, brush, and floss. As you replace each aligner with the next in the series, your teeth will movelittle by little, week by weekuntil they have straightened to the final position your Dentist has prescribed. You'll visit your Dentist about once every 6 weeks to ensure that your treatment is progressing as planned. Total treatment time averages 9-15 months and the average number of Aligners worn during treatment is between 18 and 30, but both will vary from case to case.
You'd Be Amazed... The Aligners are made through a combination of your orthodontist's expertise and 3-D computer imaging technology and constructed from strong, clear medicalgrade plastic that provides a comfortable, unnoticeable fit.
Call us at 508-812-4130 to discuss which options will bring you the comfortable, great smile you're looking for.
Traditional metal braces are the most common type of orthodontic treatment. Metal braces are constructed using high-grade stainless steel and straighten your teeth using metal brackets and archwires. Many patients choose to add colored bands to create a more unique smile during their treatment.
The appearance of the metal braces during treatment can be off–putting to some people. Many would prefer to have braces that are less noticeable and that blend in more with their natural teeth. White braces are the same size and shape as metal braces, expect they have tooth–colored or clear brackets that blend in to teeth.

In honor of the colder days and darkening nights, we thought it would be fun to add a little sparkle to our Trend Report for September and focus on sequins, sequins and sequins. When you're picking your outfit for a night out in fall, there's nothing like a little glitz to make you forget about the looming winter and the cold it brings.
If you paid attention to the Fall 2009 collections when they were shown earlier this year, you probably noticed that sequins were a popular look. Between the various other trends (which we showcased in Trend Report: Fall 2009), the glimmer of a sequin could be seen on many a catwalk. The sequin can be a bold statement when worn from head to toe. Luckily, this trend is so universal that there is a stack of different ways to wear it, from a sequined blazer like the one Peaches Geldof is sporting to a mini skirt like Kate Hudson.
When Balmain (bottom, middle) sent the sequined look to the runways for Fall, they went all out. From sequined blazers to mini dresses with sharp shoulders, they were certainly a force to be reckoned with. At 3.1 Phillip Lim, they kept it slightly simpler, with a draped jacket in gold that was paired with a straightforward cotton dress and tights. Similarly, at Marc Jacobs, a red sequined sweater was paired with a printed skirt, which helped to downplay the glamour. Some of you will prefer the all out allure of Balmain and some of you will want to look unfussy and minimal while still adding a bit of excitement to your style. One thing is for certain, though. You are always going to stir the crowd when working with sequins.
If you usually turn to the runway for inspiration, start with Marc Jacobs (top, left). Although the sequins give the top a party feel, the long sleeves deemphasize the look and make it perfect for the fall months. For a similar look try Donna Karan's Cashmere Sweater ($598) together with Topshop's Premium Stripe Velvet Skirt ($80). Add these Patent Oxford Shoe-Boots ($39) from Newport News to complete the look.
At 3.1 Phillip Lim (top, right) a simple tee dress was paired with a sequined blazer to create an amazing, rock-chic look. We like this silver Sequin Blazer ($495) by 7 For All Mankind and this purple Tiffany Sequined Blazer ($199.20) by Iisli.
Over at Balmain (bottom, middle) they didn't hold back with the sequins, plastering a heavy array of them on this amazing mini dress and its matching sleeve. If you're lucky enough to have the money, try Balmain's Paillette Mini Dress ($13,395) from the same collection. As much as we'd love to say we have that sort of dough, a less pricy version obviously had to be found. We love Bebe's Sequin Striped Asymmetric Dress ($98) and Topshop's Tall Cosmic Sequin Dress ($170).
While many of us look at the runways for our style inspiration, it is always fun to see how the stars take on the trends. Kate Hudson (top, middle), who loves to rock the bohemian-luxe vibe, wears a mini skirt and cropped jacket combo in gold sequins with a plain white cami. We prefer not to do sequins on sequins, so we've found two perfect separates for a stab at Kate's look. This gold Sequined Miniskirt ($88) by Aqua is perfect with a plain white tee while Topshop's Scalloped Beaded Jacket ($135) is the best cropped jacket.
Peaches Geldof (bottom, left) has gone for an all-black approach, throwing a boyfriend blazer of her outfit and adding a dash of red lipstick. If you love the style of this London socialite, try Free People's Black Sequin Blazer ($168). Pair it with this Whiting & Davis Brass Mesh Cross-Body Bag ($70) and add a dash of Rimmel London's Lasting Finish Lipstick ($5.19) in Balistic, Alarm or Red Hot.
Lastly, the gorgeous Beyonce wearing a multicolored mini dress from Balmain. If you want to try this look, we like this Striped Sequins Dress ($150) by Body Language, Larok's Her Majesty Sequined Minidress ($398) and Ksubi's Midnight Sequin Dress ($141).

They call this campaign BingItOn. Click at the link and you can take a blind search test that compares Google to Bing side-by-side in your own choice of searches. You get to do five searches and choose whether you like the left side, right side, or call it a draw. For the record, I took it, and it came out even for me (one of the results was a draw).
Microsoft apparently felt encouraged to do this promotion when it saw the results of an independent study. Conducted by California-based Answers Research, the study queried an online sample of nearly 1,000 people at least 18 years old, all living in the US. None of the participants in the survey knew Microsoft was involved.
Participants performed 10 searches of their own choosing, and were shown the results from both Bing and Google, side by side, with all the the branding removed. Additionally, notes Microsoft, "The test did not include ads or content in other parts of the page such as Bing's Snapshot and Social Search panes and Google's Knowledge Graph." For each search, participants chose which side showed better results, or could call it a tie.
Of the participants surveyed, 57.4 percent chose Bing more often, 30.2 percent chose Google more often, and 12.4 percent didn't prefer one over the other. (Apparently, I am among the 12.4 percent). That's very close to the two to one preference claimed by Microsoft, but are those numbers really fair? Given that both search engines offer a certain amount of customization, one has to ask if the test truly duplicated the effect of using each engine "in the wild." I've used Google a lot more than I've used Bing; I'd expect the former to know me better than the latter. Doesn't that mean my search results on Google would be more relevant than my results on Bing, even if I'm using personalization features on both of them?
Chris Crum over at WebProNews points out that Microsoft is hardly breaking new ground with its BingItOn promotion. About fifteen months ago, the Blekko search engine invited everyone to play "three engine monte." Perform a search, and you get three sets of results side by side: Bing, Google, and Blekko. Again, you don't see the branding until after you pick the best result. Blekko still offers it, in fact; you can play three engine monte for yourself.
This may be a clever promotional move by Microsoft, but will it truly win converts? It's hard to say. Old habits are hard to break. And if I'm right about the way personalized searches work, regular Google users may notice that Bing isn't living up to its side of the bargain, and go back to their old friend. Bing certainly won't get any special treatment from SEOs until they win more market share, and that's proving to be slow going.

United States District Court, D. Columbia.
September 30, 2014
CHARLES NEUMAN, Plaintiff,v.UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, et al., Defendants
Page 417
For CHARLES NEUMAN, Plaintiff, Pro se, Welch, WV.
For UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE, UNITED STATES IMMIGRATION AND CUSTOM ENFORCEMENT, Defendants: Wyneva Johnson, LEAD ATTORNEY, U.S. ATTORNEY'S OFFICE FOR D.C., Washington, DC.
Page 418
KETANJI BROWN JACKSON, United States District Judge.
Pro se Plaintiff Charles Neuman (" Plaintiff" or " Neuman" ) has brought the instant action against the United States, the Department of Justice, and U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (collectively " Defendants" ) under the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. § 552 (2012), to pursue records related to his 2009 criminal conviction for a series of crimes arising out of the operation of a counterfeiting ring. Defendants provided certain documents to Neuman in response to a FOIA request, but some of the pages were heavily redacted. Neuman's lawsuit alleges that Defendants have wrongfully withheld information contained in twenty-five of the responsive documents.
Before this Court at present is Defendants' motion for summary judgment, which maintains that all responsive documents have been released to Plaintiff and
Page 419
that Defendants were entitled to withhold portions of the documents under FOIA Exemptions 6, 7(C), 7(E), and 7(F), and also under Privacy Act Exemption (j)(2). In his opposition, Plaintiff responds only to Defendants' invocation of Exemptions 7(C) and 7(E), leaving this Court to conclude that Plaintiff has conceded the applicability of FOIA Exemptions 6 and 7(F) and Privacy Act Exemption (j)(2). Moreover, while this Court is persuaded that FOIA Exemption 7(E) has been properly applied, this Court is not in a position to determine the validity of Defendant's invocation of Exemption 7(C)--the paucity of the record and the unsatisfactory nature of Defendants' Vaughn index render it impossible to determine whether that exemption is appropriate. Consequently, Defendants' motion for summary judgment will be GRANTED IN PART and DENIED IN PART, and this Court will order Defendants to submit for in camera review certain documents--in both redacted and unredacted form--as well as an updated Vaughn index that more precisely lays out the reason behind each redaction. As the separate order accompanying this memorandum opinion establishes, once Defendants have satisfied these threshold requirements, they will be permitted to resubmit their motion for summary judgment with respect to the withholdings that are based on Exemption 7(C).
The Freedom of Information Act request underlying the present litigation stems from Plaintiff's conviction in January of 2009 of a host of crimes related to the operation of a counterfeit ring, including the crime of being a felon-in-possession of a firearm in violation of 18 U.S.C. § § 922(g)(1). (Compl., ECF No. 1, at 6.)[1] On May 21, 2012, Plaintiff filed a FOIA request with U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (" ICE" ), which was the investigating agency behind Plaintiff's 2009 convictions. ( Id. ¶ 6.) Plaintiff requested " all information in [ICE's] possession that involves [ICE's] investigation of me for any and all criminal conduct[,]" as well as all information in the agency's possession relating to the particular case that resulted in Plaintiff's 2009 conviction. ( Id. ¶ 7.)
Plaintiff's belief that certain potentially exculpatory evidence was unlawfully withheld during his trial in 2009 apparently was the motivation behind this FOIA request. In particular, Plaintiff contends that a witness at his trial had provided information to ICE officials during the pre-trial investigation that suggested Plaintiff could not have been in possession of the gun that led to his conviction of being a felon-in-possession of a firearm ( id. ¶ ¶ 12-13), and that this exculpatory information was not provided to Plaintiff prior to trial, in violation of his statutory and constitutional rights ( id. ¶ 15).[2] Plaintiff has sought to utilize the FOIA process as a means of unearthing that allegedly exculpatory evidence.
On October 15, 2012, ICE released 80 documents responsive to Plaintiff's FOIA request, totaling 207 pages of responsive material. (FOIA Response Letter (Oct. 15, 2012), Ex. 4 to Defs.' Mot. for Summ. J., ECF No. 17-1, at 72.) Every page was partially redacted. ( Id.) ICE claimed that
Page 420
these redactions were based on four statutory disclosure exemptions: FOIA's Exemptions 6, 7(C), and 7(E) and the Privacy Act's Exemption (j)(2). ( Id. at 72-73.) On November 5, 2012, Plaintiff filed an administrative appeal, challenging the heavy redaction of twenty-five of the released documents, but ICE determined on review that those documents were properly redacted. (FOIA Response Letter (Jan. 8, 2013), Ex. 7 to Defs.' Mot. for Summ. J., ECF No. 17-1 at 81-82).[3] Thereafter, Plaintiff filed the instant FOIA lawsuit, disputing the validity of ICE's redactions.[4]
On December 16, 2013, Defendants filed a motion for summary judgment. (Defs.' Mot. for Summ. J. (" Defs.' Mot." ), ECF No. 17.) This motion includes an affidavit and various exhibits that are intended to clarify the reasoning behind the disputed redactions. First, Defendants argue that the disclosure provisions of the Privacy Act do not apply to the particular records at issue here and thus full disclosure is not required. (Defs.' Mem. in Supp. of Mot. for Summ. J. (" Defs.' Mem." ), ECF No. 17, at 21-22.) Second, Defendants assert that FOIA Exemptions 6 and 7(C) are applicable because " the substantial privacy interests of law enforcement agents and other individuals" outweigh " the non-existent public interest." ( Id. at 29.) Third, Defendants assert that they properly withheld various " database codes, case numbers, and numeric references" under Exemption 7(E). ( Id. at 30.) Finally, Defendants claim that any information identifying third parties falls under Exemption 7(F) because such information " could put them and their families at great risk of physical danger." ( Id. at 32.)
Plaintiff submitted his opposition to Defendants' summary judgment motion on February 10, 2014, arguing that there remains a genuine dispute regarding whether Defendants properly invoked FOIA Exemptions 7(C) and 7(E). (Pl.'s Opp'n to Defs.' Mot. (" Pl.'s Opp'n" ), ECF No. 19, at 1.) Defendants' summary judgment ...

A few weeks ago Rockwell Automation (NYSE:ROK) came out with earnings and the stock got rocked. It had a single day decline of over 5% and shareholders of this name were none to pleased. The share price of the industrial automation company continued to fall for another couple of days before finding a low at $109.80. Since that low was put in, Rockwell Automation (NYSE:ROK) stock has slowly clawed its way back and has nearly gained back everything it lost on earnings day. This is where I see a potential for a great short trade to profit from. If this stock continues to rise, the level I have isolated as an entry point to short is $120.50. That is roughly the area where the breakdown occurred and also the 50MA is sloping down and will act as good resistance. If this trade does trigger, investors could see Rockwell Automation (NYSE:ROK) stock fall down to $115.50 rather quickly.

From Nevada, USA:
My husband just made the switch from animal-source insulin to synthetic human insulin. He is running low on his blood sugar levels. Should we decrease his human insulin intake? I say yes, he says no. Please let me know as we don't have any qualified doctors here.
It is rather difficult to answer your question with any precision without knowing much more about your husband's insulin regimen, what other kinds of insulin he is using, and what his blood sugars have been reading. The overall aim should be to keep blood sugars between 80 and 160 mg/dl and any time the blood sugars are consistently below the 80 mg/dl mark it is appropriate to consider lowering the insulin dose unless there is some other obvious explanation like a diminished food intake or a sudden increase in physical exercise. It sounds as though you both might be helped quite a lot by a visit, even a one time only visit, to a center where there is an interdisciplinary diabetic care team.

re: The Missing Comma in "Yes sir" Bugs Meposted 5/26/15
Dear Editor…
I have noticed in many books that are supposed to be "edited professionally" that writers aren't putting commas in these instances: "Yes sir," she said. And "I told you not to do that Anne," John said. Shouldn't there be a comma before "sir" and "Anne"? Why are so many people ignoring this basic 101 punctuation rule? Or am I wrong? I see it most from indie or smaller publishers. The funny thing is, the rest of those manuscripts are fine – no typos, other mistakes – except for that one rule, as if it's been misused so much that some freelance editors have started to believe that's the correct way.
Dear Wondering…
Sir unaccompanied by a comma can bug me, too—but there's a reason we sometimes see that. Your examples are direct addresses, which the "rules" say are to be set off by commas: "I told you not to do that, Anne." But the rule gets fuzzy when it comes to the word sir. It turns out yes sir can, in fact, go without a comma when it's used almost as a single word, as in "Yes sir! I will." This is covered in entry 5.47 of The Chicago Manual of Style (14th ed.), which most fiction publishers use. In a nod to the fuzziness of usage and punctuation, each publisher creates its own "house style guide" to codify its preferences. (Yes, the guides can be word-specific.) Copy editor sensibility then factors in. She may decide on "Yes sir," she said to follow house style (she'll have a guide for each house she works with), or she may sense "single word" usage, or she may want a clean look for the text itself. After all, "Yes, sir," she said has a lot of punctuation for a sentence with so few words. Does punctuation fussiness serve that book? Good copy editors know the rules but also consider the flavor of each project.
Happy writing!

When we stand back and look at the evolution of the English language, we can see the fluidity of "rules," but even so we can have our pet peeves and preferences regarding items transitioning within our own lifetime.

We were just discussing this in our critique group. "Hi John" versus "Hi, John." Interesting that "Yes sir" may have an exception–sharing this with my group!

I have to admit that punctuation is another scary subject for me. Due to a serious illness, I left school earlier than I should have and although I have the creativity and vocabulary to write, my punctuation isn't up to the standard it should be.
It does worry me that I may not to the task of using punctuation , so I may have to dedicate myself to learning the rules and appropriate use of punctuation.

I'm wondering what CMOS reference talks about "yes sir" without the comma. I've searched everywhere, and 5.47 has nothing to do with that. Please share the reference. Thanks!

When it comes to defying the laws of Ageing, who better to turn to for advice than the true experts – the quinquagenarians themselves? 1,500 females in their aged between 50 and 60 years old were asked what their top Anti-Ageing tips were – and they didn't disappoint.
It was found that two thirds of women receive pearls of beauty wisdom from their mothers and grandmothers – a fact which may not come as such a surprise when you consider that experience often comes out on top.
One Skin Care Expert commented: "Women in this age bracket have the experience and confidence to understand that the secret to looking and feeling fantastic can't be found in a jar, it's a combination of good health, vitality and cherry picking beauty products designed to work on more mature skin".
Top tips for looking youthful as you age include: moisturising beyond the face and down to the neck, maintaining a healthy diet and always removing makeup before bed.
Contrary to popular belief, today's women in their fifties like to sleep, claiming to aim for at least eight hours' sleep each night. In addition to plenty of rest, one in four of those polled said they followed a strict beauty and Skin Care regime, while almost a third of study participants admitted to spending more money on beauty products in their fifties than in their earlier years.
Are you in your fifties? Which Skin Care and beauty tips do you swear by? Let us know on our Facebook page today.

He is able to get up and down without discomfort, can easily play fetch and is back to chasing Hank
Wylie, TX (PRWEB) November 02, 2015
Dr. Myers has been certified in Regenerative Cell Therapy since 2011, using adult derived stem cells to treat patients at his previous clinic. One of those patients being Hunter, a 6 year old Labrador Retriever suffering from severe osteoarthritis in his hips and knees. Hunter's owner's said he had difficulty getting up from a lying position and joint supplements and anti-inflammatories only made some of the pain and discomfort better. After stem cell treatment "He is able to get up and down without discomfort, can easily play fetch and is back to chasing Hank," says Hunter's owner. It's been over two years since Hunter received stem cell therapy and he is doing well.
Stem cells are regenerative cells that can differentiate into many tissue types as well as being able to reduce pain and inflammation thus helping to restore range of motion and stimulate regeneration of tendon, ligament and joint tissues (http://www.vetstem.com/science.php). In a study using VetStem Regenerative Cell Therapy on dogs with osteoarthritis of the hip joint it was found that regenerative cell therapy (adipose-derived stem cells) decreases patient discomfort and increases patient functional ability.
Once a patient is identified as a good candidate for stem cell therapy the procedure begins with a fatty tissue collection from the patient. The tissue sample is sent overnight to VetStem's lab in California for processing. Once processed, the stem cells are quality checked and then injectable doses of the patient's stem cells are sent overnight, back to Parker Road Veterinary Hospital. Within 48hrs of collecting a fat sample from a patient Dr. Myers is able to inject stem cells into (arthritic or injured) affected areas and healing can begin.

Questions and Answers
Your Questions About Bmw 2012 M3
Richard asks…
Which is better the 2012 BMW M3 or 2012 Lexus IS-F?
Which looks better?
Which would you personally choose?
Which has a more comfortable interior(leather seats wise)?
Cons and Pros of both?
Administrator answers:
I think the Lexus looks better. The M3 has gone downhill in terms of looks since 08.
I would choose the Lexus because of looks and because it has three more horses than the M3.
The M3 for me has a better interior than Lexus. The M3 is still a BMW and well Lexus is owned by Toyota so of course the styling inside will be won by the german manufacturer.
I dont have any cons on either of these cars. But if you had said a M5 vs a Lexus Is-f then it would have been different. Or god forbid…. A 2012 Audi A6
Laura asks…
What should I get? 2012 BMW M3 or Jag XFR. Yea yea, but really I just am wondering what everyone thinks?
Administrator answers:
The Jag looks ALOT nicer. If you want speed get the BMW if you want comfort get the Jag.
Charles asks…
BMW X5 50i 2012 or BMW M3 2012? Alaska?
I have 4 months to decide what car I want. I want the M3 but i live in alaska and i don't think i will drive it a lot in winter. The X5 is nice but it only has 400 horse power and i would like a fast car that i can race others in and race. What do you guys think. I know that the m3 is only 14 horses faster but would that make a difference? If you lived in Alaska what would you chose. Please wright a long answer, thanks.
Administrator answers:
Well to tell you truth it depends on where in alaska you live. And also how much you are going to race. Before i tell you what car i think you should drive i want to answer your other questions, in terms of horse power 14 isn't much, but one engine is moving a very light weight sedan and the other is moving a big suv, so odiously the m3 will feel a lot more powerful. If these are the only two cars you are considering i would have to go with the x5, driving around in the snow in a light weight sedan with a huge engine just sounds light a slippery time. But let me put this into your mind, the 3 series sedans are very nice, look very similar to the m3, very fast (i just bought a 08 335i and love it), and some you can buy with all wheel drive, so in my opinion i would get a 335xi because it has enough power but you aren't going to suffer when snow comes your way, and you won't have to drive around in a huge suv.
James asks…
2012 Lexus IS-F vs. 2012 BMW M3?
Hi!(: I was really curious which one is better in looks,performance, and electronics such as navigation etc!(:
Administrator answers:
Looks are subjective, personally I would go for the M3 for two reasons – I much prefer the looks and it's available with a manual transmission, the IS-F is automatic only (with a manual mode of course). Also everything I've read says the IS-F has a harsh ride but doesn't handle any better than the M3, probably not even as good. The M3 was faster around the track on Top Gear too.
I would expect that the Lexus would be more reliable, however.
I would not judge a high performance sports sedan on electronics at all, it's all about the drive.
Mary asks…
2012 Hyundai genesis r- spec or 2008-2010 BMW M3 With manual trans which would you choose?
Can't make up my mind on which one i want!?
Administrator answers:
It's very hard to compare the two because they are VERY different cars…the Genesis R-Spec is a 5-series competitor, and thus, has a very different kind of driving experience (large, luxurious, soft riding, quiet, comfortable…even with the R-Spec package).
The M3 is BMW's sport king, and because of such, its a more brash sport oriented experience. The suspension is firmer, the wheels are wider so you have a much less comfortable ride and the car is definitely not quiet (from the burl of the V8 through the quad exhaust to the wide tires all around, you'll certainly hear a lot more of the road than you would in the Genesis).
The Genesis would be a fantastic car for road trips, comfortable daily driving and certainly a more luxurious option…the M3 is more of a drivers car, especially with a manual transmission. You just have to decide which one is more important to you, the BMW will treat you with a better driving experience, the Genesis with a better comfort experience. The Genesis will not perform any where near the M3 on a track or just spiritedly driving on the road…the M3 will not be anywhere near as comfortable to drive.
That said, as much as i really like the Genesis Sedan (really any of them, not just the R-Spec), I'd personally choose the M3 because i like the sport vs. The comfort, and I'm a BMW fan above everything except Porsche, so it also goes without saying, i'd side with the M3 over almost anything in the price range.

The Greatest Game Ever Played
The Greatest Game Ever Played, huh? About golf? Hmmm, that seems like a pretty bold statement. Luckily, the movie mostly holds up to its self-proclaimed hype.
Based on the best-selling book by Mark Foster, Game tells the remarkable real-life story of Francis Ouimet (Shia LaBeouf). He was a working-class immigrant kid who, in the early 1900s, turned the privileged world of golf on its ear. The story begins with Francis working as a caddie at a posh country club, where he masters the game by quietly practicing on his own. His French-born father (Elias Koteas) thinks he's wasting his time and should be earning an honest wage, but Francis is far too smitten with the game to give it up. Francis finally gets his big break when an amateur spot opens up at the 1913 U.S. Open. With a feisty 10-year-old caddie named Eddie (Josh Flitter) by his side, egging him on, Francis plays the best he ever has. He eventually finds himself facing off against the sport's undisputed champion, Harry Vardon (Stephen Dillane), a U.S. Open winner and six-time British Open champion (a record that still stands today). Their legendary battle changes the face of the sport forever--but I wouldn't necessarily call it the greatest game ever.
Game is one of those juicy little biopics actors can really sink their teeth into. Starting with our young lead, LaBeouf (Holes) is sufficiently determined as the guy playing against impossible odds. His Francis, with his liquid brown eyes and winning smile, is full of optimism and raw talent that propels him into the majors. And he looks pretty authentic swinging a golf club, too. Still, it may be time for LaBeouf to move on from the Disney family fare and do something grittier, sort of like what he showed in Constantine. Dillane--who was so achingly good in The Hours as Virginia Woolf's beleaguered husband--also does a fine job as the legendary Vardon, a man haunted by his own demons. In a way, Game is a story about both men, who have more in common than they realize. Although a top professional in the sport, Vardon has to fight against the elitist golfing community's prejudices. You see, Vardon grew up dirt poor on the plains of Scotland, and because of his background was never permitted into any ''gentleman's'' clubs. The cast of colorful supporting players add to the film, especially Flitter as the caustic but encouraging Eddie. He may be small but he packs a wallop. The last shot of the movie features Francis and Eddie walking off the golf course at sunset, evoking the classic Casablanca ending line, ''This is the start of a beautiful friendship''--which, apparently, really happened. The real-life Eddie and Francis remained friends for the rest of their lives.
The main slice against Game is that it's about golf. Besides comedies, such as Caddyshack and Happy Gilmore, a serious movie about the game really isn't going to stir your soul, say like, football or baseball. But actor-turned-director Bill Paxton--who made his directorial debut with the creepy Frailty--takes the story and keeps it convincingly affecting. Much like Seabiscuit, it's the real-life historical context that makes Game even more compelling. Paxton painstakingly details how the game was played at the turn of the century--and who was allowed to play it. The whole discriminatory arrogance surrounding the game makes the stakes even higher for our heroes. Vardon had a score to settle while Ouimet simply became the game's new hero, paving the way for legendary whiz kids like Tiger Woods to step up on the green. Paxton also views Game as a Western. The final golf round between Vardon and Ouimet is the ultimate shootout, á la the OK Corral, in which the camera angles are inventive--a bird's eye view of the ball sailing through the air or gliding on the green into the hole. Plus, he keeps the tension as taut as he can, considering the less than exhilarating subject matter. Oh, come on, who isn't a sucker for a good sports underdog story, even if it is golf?
Bottom Line
Granted, it's a sports movie about golf. But with winning performances, fancy camerawork and a classic root-for-the-little-guy scenario, The Greatest Game Ever Played tees off with the best of them.

It is not typically as imperative to replace the clutch fork and pivot ( MD770506 and MD719602 ) as with an aftermarket, higher pressure clutch kit, but it is still recommended.

Battle for Middle Earth 2 - Rise of the Witch-King - Mission 6 - Carn Dûm
Battle for Middle Earth II - Rise of the Witch -King - Mission 6 - Carn Dûm
This is a hint/walkthrough post for Battle for Middle Earth II: Rise of the Witch-King. You can find an index of all our Battle for Middle Earth II posts here.
I found this a very tough mission at the start, not the least because I hadn't expected that the tower trebuchets would have a SHORTER range than the enemy trebuchets.
Also, I could not successfully place Hwaldar's ability to summon Hill-Men (the targeting marker seemed to be red everywhere, indicating a location where the summons could not be placed). Angmar powers that summonned creatures seemed to work fine, however.
Finally, the Witch-King's fear power was utterly useless.
On my first attempt, I put together a force of Snow Trolls to try to run around the enemy and take out their trebuchets. This worked quite well, except there were a seemingly endless stream of trebuchets.
Resources are very tight especially initially and if you cannot defend your Mills (by keeping the enemy engaged and not letting them run loose too much). Definitely build a lot of them when you have time. You probably won't have much time later during the attack waves.
One of the keys to an easier time here is to use Hwaldar's leadership bonuses. You can get both increased attack ability and Resources this way. Build a Hall of the King's Men and queue a lot of Thrall Masters. Most should end up being Axe Throwers, with two or at most three battalions of Spearmen. No Wolf Riders because there are a heck of a lot of elven pikemen in this mission.
Thrall Masters are cheap to build, so you can assemble a good-sized force to hold the outermost wall. You are really only doing this for as long as you can in order to get resources for a final stand later as there will be an overwhelming number of elves.
Another key to a solid defense is to use Troll Stone Throwers. Place them near the walls to fire over them and at the enemy as they try to break their way in. Keep them in at least two groups so that if one group is rushed, you can probably still continue firing (or give covering fire) from the other group. They also only cost 25 Command Points but if allowed to fire freely can do devastating damage.
The Elves will also go after the Witch-King directly, with several battalions of high-veterancy Lindon Horse Archers beelining for him. When that happens, retreat him to the innermost wall. When the pursuers enter the space between the middle and inner walls, shut the gates to trap them inside. They will try to fight their way out, but mostly get cut down by trebuchets and arrow towers.
If you lose the outer wall, leave your troops behind and retreat your heroes to the innermost wall. Hopefully by this time you will have accumulated a good amount of Resources not only from your Mills but from Hwaldar's leadership. Build a similar force to defend the inner wall. Builders can throw up towers to be garrisoned (or to give your Witch-King respite from pursuit) if there is spare cash.
Using the types of units mentioned above, plus all the Summon powers available, I didn't need Rogash's reinforcements to defend Carn Dûm.

I found a bug during this mission:ReplyDelete
I trained some troops and rushed out and faced the gathering enemy forces very early. I also brought my builders, starting to build a lot of towers where the enemies spawned. When I had about 50 towers I noticed that I did not need my troops anymore, the towers took care of everything. I also noticed that the enemies just kept spawning and nothing changed, so I pulled back my troops and went to wash my dishes and other stuff for like an hour.
When I returned, the situation was the same, so I destroyed all my towers and pulled back to the inner most wall. After a while, Glorfindel arrived and I could win the mission (had at that point killed over 17k enemy troops).
Lesson learned: in order to win this mission you must let the enemy spawn their waves properly, or else you will never win.
@Anonymous -- Interesting! It's possibly a series of scripts and each event is dependent on the previous one ending. Thanks for sharing.ReplyDelete

PR View by Paul Oestreicher, PhD
CNN's sacking of some of its most experienced science journalists and producers could not come at a worse time. We are in desperate need of another science boom and greater public understanding and support will surely help propel the effort forward. Our healthcare, our environment, our energy needs and our economy all depend on it.
Thirty years ago, the US ranked third among developed nations in the proportion of college students receiving degrees in science or engineering. Now, we stand in 17th place. Only about 10% of the US population knows what a molecule is and about half can define the purpose of DNA. So, we need more interest and investment, not less. We need more people informed, involved and inspired.
Beyond the issue of competitiveness, there is consumer health and safety. Indeed, there is worry that a growing number of patients are not taking their medication because of inaccurate or sensationalized reporting on adverse drug reactions. Enhancing science literacy will create a more engaged, more rational health consuming public. To help accomplish this, we need to increase, not chop, the number of knowledgeable professionals sifting through the ballooning mass of information who can ask good questions, provide context and perspective, and differentiate the myths and the facts.
Other news outlets are cutting back, too. I know the economy is tough. Even so, CNN, please reconsider.

Staff writer Chad Dundas takes the wheel of the show in Ben's absence as he and Mike discuss last weekend's UFC 127, break down this weekend's Strikeforce: Feijao vs. Henderson card and go through a few of the week's top stories. Later on the show they are joined by Strikeforce women's welterweight champion Marloes Coenen (around the 48-minute mark) who gives her thoughts on her replacement opponent for Saturday, Liz Carmouche and thoughtfully expounds on her plans for 2011.

Mike McCarthy wanted to get work for Matt Flynn, Scott Tolzien and Chase Rettig in Green Bay's preseason opener. The Packers coach already knows what he has in Aaron Rodgers.
McCarthy scratched Rodgers along with nine other Packers, and Rettig wound up playing all but two snaps in the fourth quarter as Green Bay lost to the Tennessee Titans 20-16 on Saturday night.
"Aaron's situation of not playing was more about us having four quarterbacks," McCarthy said. "Historically, I feel like I didn't do a good job of getting the fourth quarterback reps, so we made a point to make sure our young players had the whole fourth quarter.
"I feel like Aaron's had an excellent camp and a phenomenal spring. He would have played one series tonight, so it was really about getting Chase the work in the whole quarter."
Mason Crosby kicked a 32-yard field goal with 7:07 left, putting the Packers up 16-13. But Rettig, the rookie out of Boston College, was sacked twice and he also threw incomplete on fourth-and-1, missing Kevin Dorsey at the goal line inside the final minute.
Jackie Battle scored on a 7-yard touchdown run with 5:02 left. Tennessee rookie Zach Mettenberger made up for two turnovers in the fourth quarter by completing all three passes for 71 yards to set up Battle's go-ahead touchdown for Tennessee's first lead.
The game was played mostly in a pouring rain. Titans coach Ken Whisenhunt, a winner in his debut, said it was the worst weather he's coached in, though he once played in uglier conditions.
"A lot of things we had planned went out the window with the rain, so for nothing else it was a good opportunity to work on that," Whisenhunt said. "We learned a lot about ourselves and what we have to do to prepare for that. Those aren't conditions you generally replicate or practice."
Quarterbacks had trouble holding onto the ball with the Packers fumbling five times, losing only one. Tennessee lost one of three fumbles.
"We probably didn't do quite as good as we'd like there with the number of times we had the ball on the ground and with the drops," McCarthy said. "To play in this environment was an incredible experience for our team."
Not so much for the fans. The biggest cheer of the game came early in the second quarter, when rain finally eased up for the first time in nearly two hours. But heavy rain returned late in the first half and stuck around most of the third quarter.
Davante Adams fumbled a punt in the first quarter that led to the Titans' first touchdown, a 13-yard run by Shonn Greene, who's had two arthroscopic surgeries in the past year on his right knee. Rookie Bishop Sankey caught a 5-yard TD pass from Charlie Whitehurst.
Flynn started and was 5 of 10 for 49 yards playing most of the first half. He left with the Packers leading 7-6 thanks to James Starks' TD capping the opening drive. Starks played only the first series in place of Lacy, and he finished with six carries for 49 yards.
"Physically it's just one of those weird games," Flynn said. "You can't really go back and critique your mechanics, and receivers can't really critique their routes too much because it was a sloppy game."
Tolzien simply lost the ball out of his hand trying to pass midway through the third quarter, then he grabbed the jersey of Titans linebacker Brandon Copeland holding until he could recover his fumble. Tolzien then found Chris Harper for a 38-yard pass, and rookie Rajion Neal, who played at the University of Tennessee, capped the drive with a 12-yard TD run early in the fourth quarter.
The sloppiness wasn't limited to players on the field.
After Neal's touchdown run was reviewed, the Packers sent the offense out a 2-point conversion pass that failed. The TD was taken off the scoreboard with some thinking the TD had been overturned.
Notes: LB Joe Thomas injured his knee and did not return for Green Bay.

Jim Johnson obviously hasn't seen the Giants play too often this year.
Johnson, one of the owners of a Jet Chevrolet dealership in a Seattle suburb, offered a promotion in which 12 people would win $35,000 if the Seahawks shut out the Giants.
Seattle's league-best defense did just that, cruising to a 23-0 victory at MetLife Stadium while intercepting Eli Manning five times.
"This is crazy," Johnson said of the deal that will cost them $420,000, according to ESPN.com. "We never expected that we'd actually be giving away the money."
The winners will be decided in a lottery – the 20 people who purchased a car between Wednesday and Saturday received 100 entries, while those who simply signed up at the dealership received one entry.
The dealership located in Federal Way, Wash. ran ads on local radio stations and in the newspaper. They wanted to run it last week for the Seahawks game against the 49ers, which they lost 19-17, but had to make sure such a promotion would be legal.
"We're a car dealership, we're not used to doing something like this," Johnson said.

Why one couple is 'announcing' their infertility with hilarious photos
Whitney and Spencer Blake have two adorable young sons, but their journey to parenthood wasn't a straightforward one. The Idaho couple, both 30, struggled with infertility for around a year before seeking medical intervention and were subsequently diagnosed with "unexplained infertility."
More: Kerry Washington's pregnancy news could mean a lot of hiding for the star
Throughout three years of trying for a baby, both with and without medical assistance, humor was always one of the couple's coping mechanisms, and this has inspired their series of "infertility announcements" — an alternative to the pregnancy announcements we're all used to seeing in our emails and on our social media feeds. Cause for celebration, of course — but for many couples a difficult reminder that they're not expecting a child.
"We were on a road trip and our conversation turned to infertility and how pregnancy announcements can sometimes be hard for people like us to read/hear, even when we're legitimately happy for the people, " Whitney told SheKnows. "We started thinking it would be funny to create our own infertility equivalents."
And they are funny. The reaction to the images has been overwhelmingly positive and has also encouraged people going through similar struggles to reach out and share their infertility experiences.

Motorists who have watched the price of crude oil drop 15 percent in the past three weeks while the average price at the pump has come down just 3 percent are getting drilled, two leading energy analysts claim.
The two claim that owners of the US's 160,000 gas stations are not dropping retail gas prices in line with the drop in oil because they want to fatten their anemic margins.
"Of course, motorists are getting hosed," says Weeden & Co.'s Charles Maxwell, who's known as the "dean" of energy analysts.
"The dealers at the pump will often wait several days before passing along the drop in crude prices – and I don't blame them," Maxwell said. "If their competitors aren't going to drop the price, the dealer isn't."
Jeff Lenard, a spokesman for the National Association of Convenience Stores, whose members own 2,200 gas stations, admitted that some of his members are slow to drop pump prices as oil prices fall.
"They need to make money, otherwise they won't be in business," said Lenard.
Amex Black Card Has No 'Rewards'
"We wouldn't look kindly on gas stations not passing along a drop in the price of oil," says AAA's Robert Sinclair.
"The chart and data we gathered absolutely proves that as oil goes up gas rises at a faster rate, and as oil goes down gas falls at a slower rate," says Gerry Mastrianni, managing director of the Florida-based trading firm. "The reason is price gouging at the pump."
The price of oil rose to $125.10 a barrel on Friday, falling from its July 11 high of $147.27. The average price of a gallon of unleaded gas dropped to $3.96, according to the US Dept. of Energy. It hit a high of $4.34 on July 7.
