Super Lucky's Tale FAQ
Have a question about Super Lucky's Tale? Check here for answers to common questions.
On this page
Super Lucky's Tale is an Xbox Play Anywhere title. What does that mean?
When you purchase an Xbox Play Anywhere title digitally, it's yours to play on both Xbox and Windows 10. You only need to purchase the game once via the Microsoft Store on your Xbox or Windows 10 device and it will appear in your game library wherever you sign in.
If you've purchased the game or content on Xbox and you want to play on your Windows 10 device, sign in on your device. If the game is already installed on your device, it will appear in your list of apps. You can also install it by opening the Store and selecting My library.
If you purchased the game or content on Windows 10 and you want to play on your Xbox console, sign in on your console and go to My games & apps > Games. If the game is already installed, it will appear in your game list. Otherwise, you can find it in the Ready to install section.
To learn more about Xbox Play Anywhere, and to see which games are supported, go to the Xbox Play Anywhere website. You can also go to Troubleshoot problems with Xbox Play Anywhere games if you're having any problems finding Super Lucky's Tale or content on your Xbox One or Windows 10 device.
I was prompted to upgrade my Windows device to play Super Lucky's Tale. Which version do I need?
To download and install Super Lucky's Tale on Windows 10, you need a device running version 1607, with OS Build 14393.0 or later.
Additionally, your device must be running a 64-bit version of Windows 10. If you have a 32-bit version, you won't be able to play Super Lucky's Tale.
To see whether you're running an appropriate version of Windows on your device:
- Go to Start > Settings > System > About.
- Look at Edition to find out which version and edition of Windows your PC is running. Make sure this is at least 1607.
- Look at OS Build and make sure this is at least 14393.0.
- Look at System type to see if you're running a 32-bit or a 64-bit version of Windows.
If you don't see a version listed, you need to update before you can download the game. There are a couple of ways you can do this:
- Go to Start > Settings > Update & security >
Windows Update. See if any relevant updates are available.
Note If it's been less than 31 days since you upgraded to Windows 10, you won't get the update right away. This is to allow you to go back to your previous version of Windows if you choose. After the 31 days have passed, your PC will automatically download the latest update.
- See the Windows Update: FAQ page to upgrade your device to Windows 10 with the latest update.
If you have version K or KN of Windows 10, you may need to download additional software. These are available as a free download. To do this, go to Media Feature Pack for Windows 10 N and Windows 10 KN editions (November 2015).

If you missed getting your LUMOback here, you can still order one at www.lumoback.com.
LUMOback is a wireless posture sensor and mobile app that leverages great design, proven science, and the latest advances in mobile computing.
The sensor provides a gentle vibration when you slouch to remind you to sit or stand straight. It is worn on your lower back and designed to be slim, sleek and so comfortable that you barely feel it when you have it on.
The sensor connects wirelessly to an iPhone 4S or new iPad app which tracks all of your movement data. LUMO, your avatar, mirrors your activities when you sit, stand, walk, run, lay down, and more!
Anyone can use LUMOback. It's simple and integrates into your daily routine. You live your life. Only better.
Media Coverage.
Thank you to all the journalists and bloggers who have helped to spread the word. Here are a few:
- CNET: Lumoback sensor funded in just days on Kickstarter
- Huffington Post: Lumoback Offers Posture-Improving Device to End Slouching
- Engadget: LUMOback smart posture sensor hands-on
- VentureBeat: This Mobile Solution Can Make You Look Taller and Feel More Attractive
- Mashable: This Sensor Can Save Your Posture
Our Story
LUMOback is the brainchild of 3 Stanford graduates- a physician, engineer, and entrepreneur- on a mission to empower people to live healthier lives.
Our story begins with one of our co-founders, Andrew, and his quest to find a solution for his bad back. His back troubles made him feel frustrated and less productive. Andrew tried everything but nothing worked, until he took posture classes that taught him how to sit, stand, and sleep properly. Learning better posture has transformed his life. Not only does he feel better, he looks great too.
Posture is scientifically linked to back problems (which affects 80% of people sometime in their lives) and is also important for confidence, physical fitness, and general wellness. Using the latest sensor and mobile technologies, we can bring good posture and movement back into our daily lives. In doing so, we hope to positively transform the lives of millions of other people too.
In the past 1 1/2 years, we've gone from concept to a real, working prototype. We've recruited some of the best minds in technology and design. We've slaved away countless hours with user testing, questioning every aspect of our solution and refining it with each iteration.
Now it's your turn. We need money to fund our initial production run- this includes paying for tooling costs, ordering the plastic, fabric, and electronic components, and assembling the units (right here in the USA by the way).
The Plan
Our project is based in Palo Alto, CA where we've been able to attract talent with stellar technology, design, and manufacturing backgrounds. We're a team that knows how to execute, and are ready to roll- we just need your backing. Here's our plan:
With your support, we can bring good posture and movement back into our daily lives. Thank you for helping us bring LUMOback to you!
1. Compatibility?
iPhone 4S or new iPad
It should be compatible with the new iPhone 5 too!
Unfortunately LUMOback does not currently work with Android, Blackberry or Windows Phone 7.
Support for Android is high priority on our roadmap. We will expand to it as soon as we can.
2. Why won't it work with the iPhone 4, iPad 2, or iPod Touch?
We're using the latest Bluetooth low energy (BLE) technology which is only compatible with iPhone 4S and the new iPad.
3. Does the iPhone/iPad app have to be on all the time?
No, the sensor works independently of the app. The app gives you the ability to see and track your everyday movements whenever you want, but it does not need to be open on your iPhone 4S or new iPad for the sensor to work.
4. Do I need an iPhone/iPad in order for the sensor to work?
The iPhone 4S or new iPad is needed in order to initially calibrate the sensor and to sync your data.
5. Is the footage in the video of LUMO the avatar tracking the user's movements real?
6. Where is the sensor worn?
The lightweight sensor is held in a thin band and is worn discreetly around your waist or lower back.
7. How slim is the sensor?
At the center, it is 8.5mm and even thinner elsewhere!
8. When do you plan to make the SDK available to developers?
We have an API that we're working on making as robust as we can. The SDK will be available after our product launch, once we feel it is ready. If you are interested in being added to the developer list, please email firstname.lastname@example.com
9. Who made your awesome video?
It was produced by our friends, Eugene Huang (video) and Allister Chang (music). They love working on new projects, so please feel free to contact them at email@example.com and email@example.com!

Security is never 100%. There is a need to balance risk and cost. Risk assessments need to be performed to determine the cost-effectiveness of preventive measures.
There are a few questions I would like answered:
- What are the frameworks to follow when performing risk assessment?
- How does an organisation effectively model a threat?
- How does an organisation accurately determine the monetary cost of a potential security threat specific to their own current circumstances?
I don't think there are any questions here that covers this yet.
Please - no answers consisting of only links to outside resources. I would like one or two detailed answers covering an overview of how risk assessment is usually done in large organisations.

Stage Gate Framework
To help initiate and manage commercialization projects, the Turner Center uses a stage gate framework. This allows the respective project teams to evaluate technical development, customer and market adoption, and business model development at each stage. This is essential for moving the concept to the marketplace. It also offers companies multiple ways to collaborate with Bradley University.
Attributes of Stage Gate Model
- Technology commercialization projects are initiated and managed via the respective stages.
- Three criteria are collectively used to evaluate the project at each stage:
- Technology and Product Platforms: Identify, develop, and test new product/process applications that provide technical solutions.
- Customers & Markets: Target unmet customer needs & wants to plan market adoption and marketing strategy.
- Business Model: Evaluate and create an optimal model for making, selling, managing, and financing the new product/process.
- Each criterion is integrated with the other two (e.g., understanding customer needs & wants helps develop product features and as well as the business model). Projects must meet all three criteria metrics at each stage to move forward.
- Unique criteria metrics are developed for each stage and are used to evaluate if and how the project moves forward. This decision making is conducted in a "go/no go" gate process.

Washington Dulles International Airport opens its doors and welcomes the community on September 20th to the Dulles Day Family Festival. The festival takes place on the Cargo Ramp at Dulles from 11:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. and features the 11th annual "tug of war" between human and machine -- the annual Plane Pull.
Dulles Day is sponsored by the Metropolitan Washington Airports Authority Police Department to raise money for Special Olympics Virginia. Admission and parking for this event are free. The festival includes aircraft on display, a car show, live musical entertainment, food and beverages, games and activities for children, and a raffle to win free tickets on various airlines.
The centerpiece of the day however is the Plane Pull, where teams of twenty people pull a 150,000-pound aircraft in a timed competition. The event is expected to attract more than 60 teams, which each donate $1,000 to Special Olympics, and compete to pull the plane 12 feet. Over the last 10 years, the Airports Authority estimates that more than $600,000 has been raised for Special Olympics Virginia at this event. Last year, an all-time high $115,000 was raised.
"We look forward to this annual opportunity for the Airports Authority to support an important program like Special Olympics Virginia and to open the airport to the community with displays and information about the world of aviation," says James E. Bennett, President and CEO of the Airports Authority and Chairman of the event.
As part of the Dulles Day Festival, the ramp area at the Cargo 5 Building will be transformed into a family festival.
The 5th annual car show features antiques, hot rods, motorcycles and other vintage vehicles.
As part of the festival, an exhibit area will include numerous aircraft, including military, commercial and civilian aircraft, on display to the public. Raffle tickets will be on sale at the Festival for chances to win round trip airline tickets to domestic and international destinations.
Visitors to the Dulles Day Family Festival will also find: fire and police equipment displays; airport snow removal and large equipment display; and a Kid's Corner, featuring a moon bounce, games, ball crawl and inflatable slides.
The original Plane Pull - the first of its kind in the nation, was created at Dulles Airport in 1992 to raise money for Special Olympics Virginia. Similar events are now held across the country at other airports.
For more information, log onto the event web site at www.planepull.com which is also linked through the Authority web site at www.mwaa.com.
Parking for the Dulles Day is free. Follow signs on the airport, which will read "Dulles Day/Plane Pull Parking."

Santa Rosa County�s attempt to build a judicial center to replace its 86-year-old courthouse has more momentum now than in years.
MILTON � Santa Rosa County�s attempt to build a judicial center to replace its 86-year-old courthouse has more momentum now than in years.
County Commissioners held a special workshop Thursday afternoon to discuss moving forward with the judicial center. Commissioner Bob Cole started it off by asking the roughly 40 people present to raise their hands if they thought the county did not need a new judicial center.
No one did.
�We�ve obviously outgrown that courthouse,� Commissioner Lane Lynchard said. �We have a duty, not just to the judiciary but to the public that goes through that courthouse, to give them a place that is safe and modern. I think the time has come to move forward on this.�
The courthouse was built in 1927, was expanded in 1959 and had a modular addition installed about five years ago. The facility totals about 51,000 square feet.
A needs assessment that was updated last year by the design firm HOK Inc. recommended the county build a 146,000-square-foot judicial center to meet existing needs and allow for growth.
At the time, construction was estimated to cost $31.8 million. That did not include land.
Commissioners decided Thursday to gather information to determine where the judicial center should be located, if the project should be built all at once or in phases, and how it should be funded. They plan to keep the public informed at every step and expect to hold more workshops.
The board voted to have HOK update its assessment. It will include a demographic study to help with site selection.
Each commissioner expressed a desire to move forward and possibly place a referendum on the ballot in November 2014 to ask for a 1-cent local sales tax to fund construction.
A 1-cent sales tax is projected to generate $12.4 million a year. That would allow the county fund the project in three years.
Commissioners also directed their staff to conduct a travel time study throughout the county to find out what areas are most accessible to residents.
County Administrator Hunter Walker said the travel study would begin immediately and that he likely will have an update at the board�s July 22 meeting on HOK�s involvement.
�November of 2014 seems like a long time away, but when it�s something of this scale it�s very much not,� Walker said.
Circuit Judge John Miller talked about the need for a new judicial center and said he was told by a Florida Supreme Court justice that Santa Rosa County�s courthouse was the worst in the state.
�We should not build a new courthouse just to make the judges happy or to make the judges comfortable,� Miller said. �We should not build a new courthouse to stop people from laughing and to stop people from making snide remarks. The primary reasons we should build a new courthouse is the one we have now is obviously obsolete and it�s unsafe.�

What's the best way to improve your designs so that people will buy them and turn your company around? Is it firing half of them at one of your UK facilities? Actually, it probably is. What better way to loosen up entrenched ideas than to get rid of half the people responsible for them, shocking the other half into thinking up something new or face the axe as well? Motorola says in addition to laying off these 50%, it might even close the facility altogether. [The Register]

Blocks of Love to benefit CancerCare
Sophia Mughal and her brother, Zachariah, are helping to build a support system for families affected by cancer, one block at a time.
For the last two years, the Fairfield siblings have been builders in the Blocks of Love LEGO Expo, an annual event that raises funds for CancerCare's professional support services for anyone affected by cancer.
"They do this because their cousin, Nicholas, has retinoblastoma," said Julie Mughal, Sophia and Zachariah's mother. "They are very close to their cousin, and they want to help him and children like him who suffer from cancer."
About 200 LEGO builders and more than 2,000 spectators are expected to attend the event on Saturday, Nov. 17, at the Webster Bank Arena in Bridgeport. Builders are expected to construct everything from pirate ships and "Star Wars" vessels to scenes from "Harry Potter" and "Lord of the Rings."
"Children can make their own creations, which get creative and quite wonderful," Jennifer Keller, special events manager at CancerCare, said.
As part of a group called Team Mughorski, Sophia and Zachariah will join their friend, Charlotte Dworski of Fairfield, in creating the Bat Cave, Batman's secret underground lair. Like many of the builders in the expo, the trio has spent the last several months garnering contributions from friends, family and neighbors.
"They go door to door for donations," Julie Mughal said.
Blocks of Love was founded in 2009 by a group of kids and their parents who wanted to combine their "passion for LEGO and their desire to help children who were affected by cancer," according to the CancerCare website. More than $150,000 was raised at last year's event.
"LEGOs are a great way to fundraise because so many children of all ages love the building and the creativity that's involved," Keller said.
Sophia and Zachariah certainly share that sentiment.
"They both really like LEGOS," Mughal said. "It's always a big thing every year that they do."
Webster Bank Arena, 600 Main St., Bridgeport. Saturday, Nov. 17, 10 a.m.-3 p.m. To register for the event, visit www.cancercare.org/blocks.

A California judge has granted a temporary restraining order barring Jennifer Lopez's first husband from distributing 11 hours of home video footage from their marriage that the singer-actress claims includes sexual situations.
Ojani Noa and his manager Ed Meyer had planned to distribute the footage and proposed making a film, "The J.Lo and Ojani Noa Story." The Tuesday order also applies to Meyer.
Lopez wed Noa in 1997, but their marriage lasted just 11 months. In 2007, Lopez won $545,000 in damages and attorney fees in another lawsuit that blocked Noa from publishing a ghostwritten tell-all book. Lopez claimed Noa demanded $5 million to keep him from publishing the book.
Noa, who represented himself, claimed the footage included nothing sexual and alleged that Lopez is trying to keep him from success.

London Open withdrawn from 2013 calendar
London, Great Britain, May 26, 2013 – The England Volleyball Federation regrets to announce that the London Open, which was tentatively scheduled for August 14-18, will not take place.
The female-only tournament was the third Open of the year, following mixed-gender events in Fuzhou in April and Anapa in Russia from July 23-28.
There will now be seven Open events in 2013, with the Vizag, Kampala, Xiamen, Phuket and Durban tournaments to follow.
London has hosted events for the past two years. Beach volleyball was one of the most popular sports at the London 2012 Olympic Games with the 15,000 arena at Horse Guards' Parade packed out for every session.
A year earlier a 5,000 venue at Horse Guards' Parade hosted the London 2012 test event.
In addition to Open events, the 2013 beach volleyball season also consists of the FIVB World Tour - 10 Grand Slams and the World Championships in Stare Jablonki, Poland.

GOP moderates revolt in Kansas
WICHITA, Kan. — Moderate Republicans have been kicked around by the tea party for years in Congress and the states.
Here in Kansas, they're fighting back.
Story Continued Below
A moderate GOP uprising is in full swing against Gov. Sam Brownback, the fierce fiscal and social conservative whose policies led to a purge of middle-of-the-road Republicans from the Legislature early in his tenure.
In a rare and surprising act of political defiance on Tuesday, more than 100 Republicans, including current and former officeholders, endorsed Brownback's opponent, statehouse Democratic leader Paul Davis. Polls show the challenger with a surprisingly strong shot at taking out Brownback in November.
( VIDEO: Gov. Sam Brownback (R-Kan.) POLITICO's State Solutions Conference)
Across conservative states in the Great Plains and the South, the last vestiges of Democratic power are at risk of being washed away in the fall elections by the tides of President Barack Obama's unpopularity. In the Jayhawk State, where Obama was trounced twice and is reviled by conservatives despite his own Kansas roots, Democrats are looking to buck that trend: Davis is presenting himself as part of a proud tradition of centrists from both parties.
The race is shaping up as a contest between a pair of candidates portraying each other as outside the mainstream. Davis says Brownback's hard-right agenda has damaged the state economy and undermined the spirit of compromise that had long prevailed in the state capitol. Brownback is casting Davis as an Obama supporter who's too liberal for a reddening state. Moderate Republicans could tip the balance.
"Sam Brownback has not only not been able to work with Democrats, he hasn't been able to work with a lot of the people in his own party," Davis said in a recent interview during a campaign stop at a technical college in Wichita. "He essentially declared war with moderate Republicans during the last state Senate election. Many moderate Republicans saw that, and they are coming to support my campaign."
( Also on POLITICO: Sam Brownback: Blue state model failed Kansas)
One of those GOP moderates is Steve Morris. As the president of the Kansas state Senate when Brownback was sworn into office in 2011, Morris battled with Brownback and conservatives in the statehouse, including over highly contentious tax reform legislation that has become a central issue in this year's campaign. When Morris faced a conservative primary challenge in 2012, the Koch brothers' Americans for Prosperity, Kansas Right to Life and the Kansas Chamber of Commerce spent big to help his opponent pull off an upset against the GOP leader.
In the interview, Morris said Brownback privately acknowledged responsibility for his political demise, suggesting he could have done more to stop the purge.
"I don't approve of what happened, but I'm responsible for it," Brownback said in a telephone call to Morris, according to the ex-legislator. A spokesman for the governor did not comment on the phone call but noted that Brownback did not endorse a candidate in the primary.
Now Morris is repaying the political favor by endorsing Davis along with a suite of current and former Republican politicians, including former statehouse speakers, local mayors, city council members, GOP delegates and an ex-congresswoman (Jan Meyers). Many of them argue that the governor's policies on public schools, highway funding, Medicaid and taxes are too much for moderates to swallow.
"It's a big step for every one of us … and a major departure from our Republican roots," Dick Bond, a Republican and former Kansas Senate president, said at the Topeka event Tuesday. November "should be about electing a moderate, common-sense Kansan as governor."
( Also on POLITICO: Kansas governor equates abortion, slavery)
Republican allies of the governor characterized the endorsements as an act of desperation by embittered ex-politicians. And in a recent interview at McConnell Air Force Base in Wichita on a hot summer morning, Brownback dismissed the criticism of his tenure, saying he has been aggressive in trying to right the state's fiscal ship.
"I represent a pragmatic conservatism, or a bleeding-heart conservatism, where I say, 'OK, let's make it work,'" Brownback said. "Bob Dole did a fair amount of that, too."
The 57-year-old Brownback is trying to energize a base of staunch conservatives, particularly the religious community, that has been a source of his political strength through one term in the House, three Senate elections and a victory in the governor's race during the tea party wave of 2010. He's now trying to tap back into that base of support, enlisting the likes of another conservative culture warrior — Rick Santorum — to campaign with him Monday at rallies outside Kansas City and Wichita.
Even though Brownback's star continues to rise on the far right, some polls show him in a perilous position with Republican voters in the state. A Survey USA poll last month showed the governor losing to Davis by six points, with one in four registered Republicans defecting to the Democratic ticket, as well as independents turning the Democrat's way by 19 points.

Radical Camera That Can Take You Back In Time
Forgotten that old-school feeling of waiting for your photographs to be developed before seeing how they turned out? British design firm Conran may have the answer.
For BBC Future's Imagineering project, in which designers are asked to reinterpret everyday objects, the designer chose to reimagine the digital camera with some of the joys of the analogue age.Sitting in an apartment above the company's London offices, senior designer Jared Mankelow unveiled the company's vision. His bold design is a Post-it note-shaped square in bold blue, with two rings at the front for the imaging sensors (black) and a ringflash (white). A large hole bored straight through the camera serves as its lens and viewfinder.
Watch Jared Mankelow explain the inspiration for his designThe square snapper may only be a mock-up -made by the UK's Complete Fabrications - but it includes many of the attributes Mankelow would like in a finished product. Firstly there is the weight – the design's reassuring heaviness harks back to the chunky character of models from the 1970s, when old-school film cameras arguably reached their golden age.
The bottom two thirds of the back of the camera are devoted to point-and-shoot photography; turning it on, activating flash, and pressing the shutter. The top bar, with its knurled dial and other details allows more creative control – such as fine-tuning aperture and shutter speed, and changing flash settings.
"When we look back at old film cameras, one of the nice things we have here is you can almost navigate round the camera blind, we've got these beautiful knurled details," he said. Some of those old features are found on the new camera, such as the textured detail on the aperture ring, which mimics the detail found on older cameras.
The changes don't end there. "What we've really tried to do is boil it down to the essence of what a digital camera should be, and what its core functionality is.
"What we really have to ask ourselves is, what is the screen for," adds Mankelow. "What is its purpose? And for us, it's just another element that chewed through a lot of power. Everybody's got a smartphone, tablet or PC nowadays, and they are built with very, very high definition screens."
Using these – instead of an inbuilt screen – give several advantages, the designer said.
"There are two things happening here – one is with the surprise or delight of not actually viewing the subject matter you're taking photos of, and the other is transferring via Bluetooth to your smartphone, to your tablet, and viewing photos that way."It may not quite recreate that feeling of waiting for your pictures to come back from the lab, but if the prototype becomes a reality, it may be the closest thing in the digital age.

In a Dutch case study of one individual living with HIV, gingko biloba appeared to interact with the HIV drug Sustiva (efavirenz), causing it to fail in this person. The data were reported in AIDS in June 2009. The 47-year-old man had been on stable HIV therapy for 10 years. It was reported that he had never missed a single dose, showing a high level of adherence to his regimens, thereby lowering his risk for resistance. During the last two years on therapy he was taking Sustiva + Truvada.
Over 14 months, test results showed that his HIV level had become detectable and continued to rise. At the same time, the amount of Sustiva in his bloodstream continued to decline. His doctor eventually learned that he had been using gingko biloba for some time. After careful questioning, he had not started or stopped any other medicine or supplement during this time.
What may help explain this situation is that certain chemicals found in gingko biloba products can interfere with the same gene that the liver uses to process many drugs, including Sustiva. It is already known that the herb interacts with aspirin, ibuprofen, omeprazole and warfarin. So it's also possible that an interaction may occur with Sustiva.
This case report does not explain the exact cause for this drug failure, nor should it be interpreted that everyone on Sustiva should avoid gingko biloba. However, these data highlight the issue of using herbal products with HIV-related drugs and the potential drug-herb interactions that may result. It is wise to let your doctor know everything you take, from prescription medicines to over-the-counter meds to supplements and herbal products and recreational drugs.

I'd like to whiten my teeth, but I have veneers on the front two. Can I use an at-home whitening product?
I don't recommend it. A veneer is a thin shell (typically porcelain) bonded onto the front of a tooth. Teeth-whitening products can't penetrate a veneer or change its color, but they can lighten your surrounding nonveneered teeth, which could leave you with an unevenly toned smile. Furthermore, whiteners that submerge or encase teeth (as trays or strips do) can permeate them from the backside. Because many veneers are translucent, this could affect how your teeth appear from the front — but again, not necessarily evenly. The bottom line: It's best to entrust the task of whitening your veneered teeth to a dentist.

Excuse me while I go have an ugly cry then pray, "What do I do with these? What do You want me to do, Lord? Show me my mission field here, Lord."
Best Quotes from the blog post:
She puts a grass woven hat on my head and all I can think of is Job saying "justice was my robe and turban" (Job 29:14). In the family of Christ, we wear justice for the poor. In the Body of Christ, our lives should be clothed in caring like our bodies are covered in clothing.
You can turn a blind eye to the poor all you want but it could have turned out that you were the poor.
You don't stay in the palace if you want anybody to find
deliverance – especially yourself.
Are we entangled in Christ and loving His family or are we entangled in culture and its pressures to have all of its stuff?
You don't forget who your brother is — when you know Who your Father

Confusion grows over Healy ban
Ireland prop Cian Healy's ban for stamping descended into farce on Thursday as confusion reigned over his availability for provincial duty this weekend.
While Leinster are of the belief that their 25-year-old loosehead can be selected for Saturday's RaboDirect PRO12 clash with Benetton Treviso, Ireland coach Declan Kidney has been told that is not the case.
Six Nations organisers have declined to publicly clarify the terms of the three-week suspension given by an independent disciplinary committee, but bafflingly maintain it commenced with Monday's citing.
Mindful that under normal circumstances Healy would have been rested this weekend, the hearing decided that the punishment for his stamp on England's Dan Cole during Sunday's 12-6 defeat in Dublin should be deferred by one week so that he would miss Ireland's matches against Scotland and France.
A three-week suspension expiring on March 10 would have to commence this Sunday, creating the grey area that has transformed what should have been a routine disciplinary process into a fiasco. The development is a mess for the Six Nations, who are at risk of seeing the spirit of their ban flouted by the exploitation of a loophole in their decision to defer the punishment.
Kidney - who will consider appealing only when the written judgment is published, which is likely to be on Monday - was told by the hearing at Heathrow on Wednesday that Healy is not available.
"Experience has taught us to wait for the written judgment or explanation to come down and we'll take it from there concerning any appeal. Let's see what's in the judgment," Kidney said. "It's certainly an option that he could play for Leinster this weekend, but we've been told that he's suspended and he's not allowed to.
"Cian's had a lot going on - a lot goes on with the citings process the way it is. There would certainly be benefit in him playing given everything that's happened. We asked the question yesterday whether he could play this weekend and we were told no, he is suspended."
Leinster take the opposite view, with forwards coach Jonno Gibbes saying earlier in the day: "Cian is certainly available. (Leinster coach) Joe Schmidt and Declan have talked about the involvement of Test players this weekend.
"Cian's available and personally I'd be delighted to involve him, he's a really big asset. He will definitely be considered. There are complications for others maybe, but he's available for us. It's a game in the break of the Six Nations and he's under consideration."

Offering of Allyship and CollaborationApril 9th, 2012 | Posted by in Info
On November 17th and February 29th the Portland Action Lab helped coordinate important days of mass direct action. Groups coordinated actions throughout the city and thousands took to the streets in empowering and strategic actions to challenge an economic system which places place profit over people, self-interest over justice, and domination over equality.
We want to offer ourselves as allies and collaborate on actions being worked on by community groups. We believe that our liberation is bound up in yours as we all operate under the same systems of oppression and privilege. We believe in mutual aid and in the interdependency of our struggles. We want to help empower communities to take action so as to create the world they want. We want to offer our skills, resources and experience to help timely and strategic actions have as huge an impact as possible. In all of this we hope to build a movement that is capable of challenging the unjust system confronting us and through this work bring into being a vision of better world.
We can provide support by offering trainings, connecting you to legal, medic and art groups, providing support for media work, helping with outreach and otherwise assisting with your action. We can collaborate on specific actions or events, but cannot make long-term campaign commitments. We will be meeting to discuss any proposals for collaboration and the level of support we can offer at our next meeting on April 25th. We want to collaborate on one action a month while we build towards our next large mobilization, which we hope you will join us in. Please provide us with information about what you are planning and we will be in touch after our meeting. Even if we cannot directly collaborate with you on your action we are happy to help publicize your action and otherwise connect you to allies in the community. Thank you,
Portland Action Lab

The Indians should take T20 seriously, and play accordingly. They seem completely misfit in T20- almost like they were in Tests in England and Australia lately. I'd prefer to see players good enough for T20 playing T20Is for India- and the likes of Tiwary, Harbhajan and Chawla don't count. Ideally, a completely different team for T20 is needed for India, for the next two years, but I don't mind having a few blokes not established in Tests (Rohit, Gambhir, Irfan, Mishra) being T20I regulars. Dhoni should quit T20Is for good, and concentrate on fixing his Test batting and keeping.
And get rid of Duncan Fletcher. We've had enough of failure under this has-been.

While many members of the UC Santa Barbara Athletics Department and the rest of the community will be taking part in Relay For Life on May 14th and 15th at Pauley Track, the event will be particularly significant for at least one Gaucho student-athlete.
Swimmer Courtney Bauer, who was diagnosed with lymphoma when she was only five, will be one of the participants in the survivor lap.
Bauer has been one of the main reasons behind the success of the UCSB swimming team over the past four years. She has helped win multiple relays at the Big West tournament, in some cases even setting new school records.
She remembers the difficult process of being diagnosed with lymphoma and undergoing chemotherapy, but she also remembers all of the support that she has received.
Bauer started swimming after a year and a half of treatment for cancer. Her mother thought it would be something good for her to do with her older brother, Curtis. She probably could not have predicted that the siblings would end up on the same Division 1 swimming team.
While Bauer does not remember all of the details surrounding her diagnosis and treatment, she knows that it has helped make her a stronger individual, and probably helped her succeed.
The process involved beginning treatment the very same day that she was diagnosed with lymphoma, as well as staying inside and being home schooled to protect her weakened immune system.
Bauer remembers that she's always loved swimming with her brother, and that was one of the biggest reasons she chose to swim at UCSB. The Gaucho swimming team has earned a reputation for being a family of its own, something which no other program could compete with in Bauer's mind.
"Courtney is a really good swimmer and a beautiful person," said head coach Gregg Wilson. "She's always been a team player and a great relay swimmer."
The environment, coaches, and teammates have enabled Bauer to thrive at UCSB. After switching to the sprinting group near the end of her freshman year, she has excelled working with assistant coach Naya Higashijima.
"Switching to the sprinting group made a big difference," explained Bauer. "That's when I really got into the sport mentally and became really dedicated."
Her first full year working with the sprinting group was capped off with an individual victory in the 200 freestyle event at the Big West Championships.
"In the back of my mind, I always knew that I was born to be strong," reflected Bauer on the way her life experiences have helped her excel in competition. "It's just always been in my nature."

When BP agreed to plead guilty to 12 felony counts related to the Deepwater Horizon disaster a few weeks ago, I made the point that the felonies mattered more than the fines. Today, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency showed why.
It suspended BP from new contracts with the federal government, which could affect the company's ability to get new leases in the Gulf of Mexico. As BP itself acknowledged in a regulatory filing at the time of the settlement, such a move also could affect extensions to existing agreements with the government.
It's not clear what the financial impact will be, but the decision sends a strong message to BP — as well as other companies operating in the Gulf — about the importance of process safety. The EPA was designated as the lead federal agency in making the determination for the suspension. In making it's decision, its done what federal regulators with the Bureau of Safety and Environmental Enforcement have steadfastly refused to do: hold operators economically accountable for their actions.
Coming on the heels of the bureau's double-secret probation for Black Elk Energy, the disparity between the two responses is striking.
In announcing its decision, the EPA said took the action because of "BP's lack of business integrity as demonstrated by the company's conduct with regard to the Deepwater Horizon blowout, explosion, oil spill, and response."
Actually, the EPA's decision is routine in cases where companies plead guilty to criminal activity. Although BP entered a not-guilty plea in a New Orleans federal court on Tuesday, the company's attorneys said it's a procedural move and that BP still intends to honor the terms of its agreement with the government, which includes pleading guilty to 11 manslaughter counts related to the death of rig workers.
The loss of future business, though, puts some teeth in the settlement. The Gulf is one of BP's most lucrative areas of operation, and a key part of restructuring plan. While it can continue its current operations there, it won't be able to compete for new opportunities. The folks at BSEE should take note. Lost future business matters more companies than fines and or getting dinged for "incidents of non-compliance."

Coming Soon! Brand New Catalog
We are unveiling a brand new catalog next month that we hope will make things easier than ever for you to find and request books and manage your library account.
The LS2Pac v.2 will be hitting our servers about mid month, offering the same searching power and visual interactivity that we have now, but giving more room for results and offering other improvements.
In advanced search, you can limit your request to just one location. The powerful filter menu is still there, only moved to the left and made bigger, so you will still be able to limit items by format, by publication date, or by a number of other filters.
This upgrade is improving some things for us on the technical side as well, so it should be a win all the way around.
We invite you to get ready for this big change with a sneak peak at our demonstration sample site. Try searching for your favorite book, get familiar with where things are and maybe try an advanced search. Your card will not work with any of the account-specific services because this demo does not actually include our collection, but you should be able to get a good feel for how it will work next month when we go live.
As always, your feedback is especially important. Drop us a line on facebook or use our online contact form to tell us what you think!

Why Narendra Modi Was Banned From the U.S.
Narendra Modi is the only person ever denied a U.S. visa based on a little-known law on religious freedom.
Well-intentioned U.S. policies sometimes work out in absurd ways, but this is hard to top: In a few weeks, India, the world's largest democracy, will probably elect as its next prime minister a politician who for nearly a decade has been prohibited from setting foot on U.S. soil.
The banned Indian official is Narendra Modi, a longtime Hindu nationalist who is the prime ministerial candidate of the opposition Bharatiya Janata Party, or BJP. Nine years ago, U.S. officials denied Mr....

Lexus RX350 Wheel Hub Assembly FOR SALE
The Lexus RX350 Wheel Hub Assembly is a vital part that serves as a housing for the wheel bearings. Its primary function is to keep the wheels connected to the vehicle while allowing them to spin freely on the wheel bearings. The hub assembly is fitted between the drive axle and the brake drum or disc. On the disc side, the assembly is connected to the holding bracket from the automobile's chassis. It is necessary to give utmost attention while replacing the wheel hub assembly since any deviations in torquing may result in a failure. One of the simple ways to prevent wheel hub assembly from premature wearing is regular greasing.
Do you sense a shaky wheel or hear a low growling or humming noise while driving? Adding to these disruptions, does your ABS light glow? It could be your wheel hub assembly that is the culprit. Usually, the hub doesn't fail as a whole, but the failure of one of its associated components can cause it to malfunction. A bad wheel hub assembly may cause an unpleasant driving experience where your automobile's wheels wander without responding to your steering. If you decide to replace the wheel hub assembly, choose from Buy Auto Parts' high-quality, meticulously-tested replacement wheel hub assemblies.

Your Guide to Taking Vitamins
Science shows that vitamins are no longer a one-size-fits-all solution. Here's how to know which supplements you need—(and which you don't)—to save your health.
Karon Warren has been popping a daily multivitamin for years. "I'm so busy that I don't eat like I should," says the 41-year-old working mom of two from Ellijay, Georgia. Although she's moving in a million directions, shuttling her kids between school, dance and tumbling lessons, she couldn't help but notice recent headlines. "Every time a new study comes out about vitamins, I become a little concerned," Karon admits. "But I've had no side effects and always get a clean bill of health from my doctor. I'm sticking with them."
Karon is not alone. More than half of American adults rely on at least one supplement to become—or stay—healthy. But recent research suggests the practice may not do a body good after all. In a study of nearly 40,000 women, a slightly reduced life expectancy was reported for those taking multivitamins, folic acid and iron.
So do you dump your supplements along with last week's leftovers? "Nobody should change their behavior based on a single study," says Jeffrey Blumberg, Ph.D., Family Circle Health Advisory Board member and professor of nutrition at Tufts University. "Their safety has been well established by 50-plus years of research." Instead, create a customized plan with your doctors before you stock your medicine cabinet. Take our expert advice to your next appointment to start the conversation about which supplements to swallow, which to swear off and which brands are best.
Before You Take That Pill...
Seventy-nine percent of physicians recommend vitamins to their patients for bone, joint, heart and overall health, according to a survey funded by the Council for Responsible Nutrition (CRN), a trade association. Get the scoop on some of the top ones for moms like you.
What You Need to Know: Recent research shows Americans are meeting their dietary guidelines—but only one week out of the year. "If you find yourself skimping on fresh fruits, vegetables and whole grains, a multivitamin is a practical way to help fill that nutrient gap," says Blumberg. But that doesn't mean you can get away with eating junk for breakfast, lunch and dinner. "No supplement can hold a candle to a good diet," says Jason Theodosakis, M.D., Family Circle Health Advisory Board member and associate professor of family and community medicine at the University of Arizona College of Medicine.
If you're premenopausal, Kroger Complete Ultra Women's Health and Walgreens One Daily for Women multivitamins—each just six cents a day—are good choices, says Tod Cooperman, M.D., president of ConsumerLab.com, an independent firm that tests supplement safety. (For a free trial, go to ConsumerLab.com/FamilyCircle.) Nature Made Multi for Her 50+ is the best value for postmenopausal women, he says, because it costs 12 cents per day and contains enough calcium and vitamin D for bone health but no iron, which usually isn't necessary at this age.
Who Should Take It: Vegans, women on macrobiotic or 1,500-calorie-or-less diets and those who eat poorly. If your blood work is good, your doctor may instead recommend specific, individual vitamins and minerals to fill holes in your diet.
What to Watch Out For: Don't go over the Daily Recommended Intake (DRI). Switching to a multivitamin is usually a safe way to prevent this. "It's easy to consume too much of a nutrient when it's taken as a single vitamin," explains Blumberg. And megadosing—taking high doses of a single nutrient—can cause anything from nausea to kidney damage.
Get It Naturally: Eat at least one and a half cups of fresh fruit and two to two and a half cups of vegetables daily, and be sure at least 50% of the grains you choose are whole. Go to myplate.gov for recommendations on how to eat to meet nutritional guidelines.
Vitamin D
What You Need to Know: Few foods inherently contain vitamin D, and some of us may not spend enough time in the sun for our bodies to produce sufficient amounts on their own. But unless your doctor recommends this supplement to treat a deficiency or to reduce your risk of osteoporosis, you should probably skip it, says Patsy Brannon, R.D., Ph.D., professor of nutritional science at Cornell University and a member of the panel of the Institute of Medicine (IOM). In fact, some studies suggest too much D may increase the risk of pancreatic cancer. If you do need it, check the label for D3, which may be more effective than D2, the other type used in supplements.
Who Should Take It: Postmenopausal women at risk for osteoporosis due to family history, small frame size, sedentary lifestyle or low calcium intake.
What to Watch Out For: Megadoses of vitamin D can cause high blood calcium (hypercalcemia) and excessive calcium in the urine (hypercalciuria), both of which put you at risk for damaging your kidneys and bones.
Get It Naturally: Fortified foods (including breads, cereals and orange juice) can have more vitamin D and calcium than milk. Fatty fish, like tuna and salmon, and canned light tuna are also good sources.
Vitamin B12
What You Need to Know: After age 50, your stomach secretes less acid to break down and absorb vitamin B12, so compensating for what you're losing can be important. Recent research suggests a diet rich in B12 lowers the risk of developing Alzheimer's disease, but it's unclear whether taking a pill may have the same effect. Since B12 is needed for cell replication, DNA and blood cell production, B12 deficiency is associated with fatigue.
Who Should Take It: Vegans, people with gastrointestinal disorders and those with pernicious anemia, an autoimmune disease.
What to Watch Out For: Aspirin, certain antibiotics, oral contraceptives and acid-blocking medications like Nexium and Prilosec can interfere with B12 absorption.
Get It Naturally: Poultry, eggs, clams, fish and meat are rich sources, as are fortified breads and cereals.
What You Need to Know: Unlike other nutrients, excess iron cannot be excreted by the human body, causing it to build up in the brain and other tissues and organs impacting the liver. Premenopausal women, especially those with heavy periods, may benefit from iron supplementation, but it's not usually necessary after menopause.
Who Should Take It: Vegans, anemic women and people with gastrointestinal problems.
What to Watch Out For: Constipation. Iron can also decrease the absorption of some antibiotics and drugs prescribed for thyroid problems and can contribute to osteoporosis.
Get It Naturally: Fish, poultry and red meat are good sources.
What You Need to Know: Calcium strengthens bones when you're young and prevents osteoporosis in later years. However, recent studies suggest supplements are associated with greater plaque buildup in the arteries, increasing the risk for cardiovascular disease. "It's a very slippery slope," says C. Noel Bairey Merz, M.D., director of the Women's Heart Center at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles. "Calcium supplements mildly strengthen bones but may increase the risk of heart disease." More studies are needed to confirm this risk.
Who Should Take It: People who avoid dairy and those who have or are at risk for osteoporosis.
What to Watch Out For: Too much calcium supplementation can increase the risk of kidney stones and may also interfere with your absorption of iron. People with digestive issues or who take acid-blocking medications, like Nexium or Prilosec, should use products with calcium citrate, such as Citracal.
Get It Naturally: Cheese, milk and yogurt are high in calcium, as are fortified breads, cereals and nondairy milk.
What You Need to Know: Omega-3s are known as good for the heart and have been shown to slightly lower blood pressure. But they've only been proven to reduce the chances of heart attack in people who've already had one. Some doctors recommend omega-3s for eye and joint health, lowering excessively high triglycerides (500mg/dL and above) and more.
Who Should Take It: Women who've suffered a heart attack or have excessively high triglycerides.
What to Watch Out For: Potent capsules can cause stomach upset and fishy burps; storing pills in the fridge may reduce side effects.
Get It Naturally: Cold-water fatty fish like halibut, salmon and sardines.
Buy Wisely
Not all dietary supplements are created equal. "It's a postmarket world, and the FDA can only get at these products after they hit the shelves," says Dan Fabricant, Ph.D., director of dietary supplement programs for the FDA. More than 400 products have been recalled since 2008 for containing prohibited ingredients. Shop smart by learning how to decode a label.
- Check for an intact safety seal to make sure that the product hasn't been tampered with.
- Choose products that are made by big pharmaceutical companies, nationally recognized brands or store brands from a trusted retailer. They invest a lot of time, resources and effort to ensure their products live up to their reputation. There are also small, trustworthy companies that specialize in a handful of products. Ask your doctor or pharmacist for recommendations.
- Be mindful of the delivery format (tablet, capsule, softgel, powder, liquid). Some brands show an image with the words "actual size." It may stop you from buying a bottle of hard-to-swallow pills.
- Look for a seal of approval from trustworthy organizations like the United States Pharmacopeial Convention (USP), ConsumerLab.com or NSF International.
- Beware of unlikely assertions, such as a pill claiming to have no side effects or claiming to work quickly like pharmaceuticals often do. That's a red flag, says Fabricant.
- The list of all components includes nutrients and other ingredients used to formulate the supplement, in decreasing order by weight.
- The Percent Daily Value (%DV) tells what percentage of the recommended daily intake for each nutrient is provided by the supplement. If the numbers look high, ask your doctor.
- Look for an expiration date to let you know how long the product is effective, a lot number or a series of letters and numbers to track the product, and the manufacturer's contact information in case you have a concern or an adverse reaction.
- Milligram (mg) and microgram (mcg) are units of measurement for water-soluble vitamins (such as C and B complex) and minerals. International Unit (IU) is a standard unit of measure for fat-soluble vitamins A, D and E.

2008 Toyota Tacoma - Diabolical Toy
Tacoma Twist
We all remember our first truck, but we'd be willing to bet it wasn't anything quite like JD McEntire's dual-purpose prerunner Tacoma. JD wanted his first truck to handle gnarly terrain at high speeds while still being a fully functional truck. JD entrusted SMP Fabworks in Sun Valley, California, to turn his Tacoma into a solid prerunner that could be driven hard while still being comfortable to drive on a daily basis. SMP Fabworks has built some of the best off-road rigs around so it's no surprise they had JD's truck built in just five months. Suffice it to say this Tacoma works flawlessly off road!
We caught up with JD's Tacoma at Gorman on the California Grapevine for an early-morning photo session in the mountains. SMP Fabworks did their homework when it came to dialing in the bypass shocks as they absorbed even the largest of whoops without skipping a beat. With a menacing stance one thing's for sure: This Tacoma is definitely no trailer queen! OR

Doogh Recipe (Persian Yogurt Drink)
08.07.11 by Jackie
If you're familiar with Persian food, you might have already tasted doogh, which is the traditional yogurt (or curdled milk) drink that accompanies Iranian dishes. It's one of my husband's favorite drinks.
Unlike Indian sweet lassi, the taste of this yogurt drink is unique; it's more savory and tart rather than sweet. The preparation is fairly simple. Just combine, plain yogurt, carbonated water (you could also use still filtered water), dried mint and a few other flavorings. This cold drink is not only refreshing for hot summer days but also can be used as an all-natural nausea remedy, thanks to the properties of the mint.

|rocking horse
Fully armoured rocking horse, detailed out with custom cast buckles and rosettes.
Built of hand hammered mild steel this rocking horse comes fully dressed for battle. The saddle is Mahogany with elk skin padded seat and steel pommel and cantel plates. The chanfron (face) attaches to the crinet (neck armour) via a snell hook. The peytral (front skirt) and crupper (rear skirt) buckle to the saddle. Numerous hand cast pewter rosettes decorate the rivets attaching straps to the armour along with nearly a dozen hand cast pewter buckles to attach the armour and hold it all together. All the armour is removable from the rocking horse via straps and buckles much like originals. The rocking horse has the ears you squeeze and it makes galloping noises, nods its head up and down and swishes its tail. The articulation of the crinet is such that it doesn't not impede this movement.
