What's more impressive than winning a third-straight Olympic gold medal? Winning it while five weeks pregnant. That's what American beach volleyball champ Kerri Walsh Jennings did during the London Olympics.
She revealed on the "Today" show that she and her husband Casey Jennings are expecting their third child. With a due date of April 9, Walsh Jennings was five weeks pregnant when winning another gold medal with longtime partner Misty May-Treanor.
Walsh Jennings said she was "moody and touchy" during the Olympics, which is odd for the normally happy-go-lucky athlete, and her period was late. Those symptoms could be attributed to the stress every athlete encounters when at the Olympics. However, May-Treanor figured it out before Walsh Jennings did, telling her partner, "You're probably pregnant."
"I thought it could have been the stress of the games and travel kind of throws your schedule off, but I knew," Walsh Jennings told host Matt Lauer. "At some point, you're late and then you start feeling something. And I definitely started feeling something in London."
Beach volleyball requires athletes to throw themselves all over the court, but Walsh Jennings said the pregnancy didn't make her hold anything back on the court. She told the "Today" show, "I gave everything I had."
This race to a gold medal was definitely the most difficult for the pair as they were up against tougher competition than in previous Olympics. They faced Americans Jen Kessy and April Ross in the finals to win their third straight Olympic gold medal.
Walsh Jennings said her husband joked that she gets a baby for every gold medal. Though May-Treanor retired after London, Walsh Jennings said she wants to play in Rio in four years. Perhaps she just wants to make sure every baby gets a medal to play with in case she and her husband go for four.

We traded fish for fowl for a fresh approach to the classic niçoise salad, and guess what? It's tastier than ever (and still lowfat).
Think salad means a bland bowl of greens? Not with this recipe, adapted from the revised Taste of Summer cookbook by Diane Rossen Worthington (Chronicle Books). The dish is so full of scrumptious finds, you won't miss the lettuce. You can prepare the salad ingredients and dressing in the morning and refrigerate, then combine and serve for dinner.
- Yield
- Makes 4 servings
- 1/2 lb red potatoes
- 1/2 cup green beans, cut into 2-inch lengths
- 3 precooked skinless chicken breasts (1lb), cut into long, thin strips
- 2 medium carrots, cut into thin strips
- 1 small red bell pepper, seeded and cut into strips
- 1/2 small red onion, cut into thin strips
- 1/3 cup niçoise or other black olives
- 2 tbsp capers
- 2 tbsp chopped fresh basil, tarragon or chives
- 2 hard-boiled eggs, peeled and quartered
- 2 small tomatoes, cut into wedges
- Dressing
- 2 medium cloves garlic, peeled and finely chopped
- 1 tsp Dijon mustard
- 2 tbsp finely chopped fresh basil
- 3 tbsp fresh lemon juice
- 2 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
- Place potatoes in a saucepan with salted water to cover. Bring to a boil and cook until tender, about 20 to 30 minutes. Drain and cool potatoes, then peel and cut into thin wedges. Meanwhile, cook green beans in a small saucepan of boiling salted water until tender but crisp, about 5 to 7 minutes. Pour into a strainer, run under cold water and then pat dry. For the salad dressing, combine garlic, mustard, basil and lemon juice in a small bowl. Whisk in oil a little at a time until well mixed, and season with salt and pepper. In a large bowl, combine chicken, potatoes, green beans, carrots, red pepper, onion, olives, capers and fresh herbs. Toss with dressing. Garnish with egg and tomato wedges. If desired, serve on lettuce-lined plates.

The Oklahoma City Thunder has named Darko Rajakovic as assistant coach, it was announced today by Executive Vice President and General Manager Sam Presti. Rajakovic has spent the past two seasons as the head coach of the Tulsa 66ers, the Thunder's NBA D-League affiliate.
"Darko's diverse basketball background, knowledge of the game and ability to develop players at a high level were clearly apparent during his time in Tulsa, and I'm thrilled to have the opportunity to add him to our staff," said Thunder Head Coach Scott Brooks. "His understanding of the core tenants of what we do, thanks to his time in Tulsa, will maintain a level of consistency that we value and his various head coaching experiences internationally will provide another layer to our coaches."
A Serbian native, Rajakovic was the first head coach in NBA D-League history born outside of North America. Rajakovic led Tulsa to a combined 51-49 record over two seasons, including a 27-23 record and NBA D-League Semifinals appearance in 2012-13.
During his time with the 66ers, Tulsa was assigned seven players from Oklahoma City a total of 50 times (the most in the league during that stretch), including current Thunder players Reggie Jackson, Perry Jones, Jeremy Lamb and Andre Roberson. Rajakovic has also seen five of his 66ers players receive call-ups to the NBA, including four to the Thunder (Grant Jerrett, Daniel Orton, Mustafa Shakur and Reggie Williams). He coached 11 Tulsa players over the past two years who were on an NBA roster in the 2013-14 season.
Prior to joining the 66ers, Rajakovic spent the previous three years as the head coach of Espacio Torrelodones of the Spanish EBA League. In his first season (2009), Rajakovic led Torrelodones to the Primera Division de Baloncesto title, promoting the team to the Liga EBA.
Rajakovic began his coaching career at 16 years old with BC Borac Cacak in Cacak, Serbia. Following his three-year stint in Cacak, Rajakovic was named the head coach of the U-20 and U-18 teams of Red Star Belgrade. During his eight years in Belgrade, Rajakovic led Red Star to two Serbian championships. Rajakovic received a basketball coaching degree from the Belgrade Basketball Academy in 2004 and a degree in sports management from BK University in Belgrade.

Halkbank and Rabita to host Champions League Final Four tournaments
The venues of the Finals were announced on Thursday by CEV President André Meyer only a few minutes before the start of DOL for the Playoffs 12 of Europe's elite club competition. The magnificent Crystal Hall, the venue for the 2012 Eurovision Song Contest, will welcome the local heroines of Rabita BAKU and another three world-class teams for the women's Final Four that is scheduled for March 15-16.
The men's Finals will then follow through March 22-23 in Ankara; the final act of the men's competition will be taking place in Turkey for the very first time since the inception of the CEV Champions League in the 2000/2001 season. The venue will be the Baskent Volleyball Hall where many other top international events have taken place in the past years.
The winners of this year's CEV DenizBank Volleyball Champions League will get the right to compete at the next edition of the FIVB Club World Championships scheduled for May 6-11, 2014.
The DOL for the Playoffs 12 was held under the supervision of Mrs. Riet Ooms, President of the European Cups Commission (ECC), starting with the women's division.
Mrs. Ooms drew the 12 teams qualified to the knock-out phase making sure that – as per the Official Regulations – only two teams from the same country can make it to the Final Four tournament and also by avoiding that clubs from the same preliminary group will be playing each other in the Playoffs 12. The teams ranked first at the end of the League Round will play their second match at home.
The draw for the Playoffs 12 scheduled for January 14-16 (home matches) and 21-23 (away matches) reads as follows (teams listed first in the ties reported here below will play the first match at home):
Prosecco Doc-Imoco CONEGLIANO (ITA) vs. Omichka OMSK REGION (RUS)
Atom Trefl SOPOT (POL) vs. Eczacibasi VitrA ISTANBUL (TUR)
RC CANNES (FRA) vs. Galatasaray Daikin ISTANBUL (TUR)
Igtisadchi BAKU (AZE) vs. VakifBank ISTANBUL (TUR)
Dinamo MOSCOW (RUS) vs. Dinamo KAZAN (RUS)
Volero ZÜRICH (SUI) vs. RebecchiNMeccanica PIACENZA (ITA)
The Playoffs 6 will then follow in early February (home matches: 4-6; away matches: 11-13) before three teams eventually join hosts Rabita BAKU for the Final Four tournament.
The draw for the men's Playoffs 12 reads as follows (the schedule is the same as for the women's competition and teams listed first in the ties reported here below will play the first match at home):
BERLIN Recycling Volleys (GER) vs. Zenit KAZAN (RUS)
Lube Banca Marche MACERATA (ITA) vs. Copra Elior PIACENZA (ITA)
TOURS VB (FRA) vs. JASTRZEBSKI Wegiel (POL)
Asseco Resovia RZESZOW (POL) vs. Knack ROESELARE (BEL)
Noliko MAASEIK (BEL) vs. Diatec TRENTINO (ITA)
Budvanska Rivijera BUDVA (MNE) vs. Belogorie BELGOROD (RUS)
The Playoffs 6 scheduled for early February will determine the three teams that will join Halkbank ANKARA in the Final Four tournament coming up on March 22-23, 2014.
The DOL for the Challenge Round of the 2014 CEV Volleyball Cup slated for early February was also carried out on Thursday morning. The four teams qualified to the Challenge Round through the CEV Cup 1/4 finals will be known in January. The results read as follows:
PARIS Volley (FRA) vs. Winner of Match 3-101/3-102
Winner of match 3-103/3-104 vs. Tomis CONSTANTA (ROU)
Winner of Match 3-105/3-106 vs. Olympiacos PIRAEUS (GRE)
VfB FRIEDRICHSHAFEN (GER) vs. Winner of Match 3-107/3-108
Agel PROSTEJOV (CZE) vs. Winner of the Match 3-401/3-402
Winner of the Match 3-403/3-404 vs. Azeryol BAKU (AZE)
Winner of the Match 3-405/3-406 vs. DRESDNER SC (GER)
Winner of the Match 3-407/3-408 vs. Dinamo Romprest BUCURESTI (ROU)
The semi-finals are scheduled for February 25/26-March 1-2 with the final stage of the competition following then from March 26 through 29.

Back then it was a major pain to get the Dark Mod to install and properly operate on Linux. This was due to the game having had *very* specific ideas on where to install stuff, and the defaults where the game expected its media did not fit my file system structure (e.g., all my games are at /mnt/data/games, not /usr/local/). Sadly, symbolic links did not work at all. Also to select a campaign one would have to select it ingame (which would apparently copy some files around?) and then restart the game, which would only work spuriously etc.
I think I read back in the days that the open source engine release would offer you the opportunity to rework the whole file system stuff to work "as expected" (unzip game and/or new campaigns wherevery you want, start, play). Any chance this already happened?

Winter League Update – Nov. 27, 2012
Here is a look at how some Grizzlies from the 2012 season are performing in their respective offseason leagues:
Heath Hembree – Scottsdale Scorpions (Arizona Fall League)
0-0 with a 3.00 ERA and 2 saves in 9 games
The Arizona Fall League season ended on November 17th when the Peoria Javelinas beat Salt River for the 2012 AFL Championship. Hembree and the Scottsdale Scorpions finished second in the Eastern Division as the team posted a 15-16 record. Hembree, though, did not pitch in the final week of the AFL season. His last appearance came on November 10th when he threw one inning and allowed no runs or hits against the four batters he faced. The right-hander finished the fall season with 12 strikeouts and three walks over nine innings. He also held opponents to a .229 batting average against.
Dan Runzler – Scottsdale Scorpions (Arizona Fall League)
1-1 with a 3.38 ERA in 10 games
Runzler's 2012 season ended like Hembree's: he did not appear in any games for Scottsdale entering the final week of the AFL season. The left-hander ended his fall season with 11 strikeouts and seven walks over eight innings. All seven of his walks occurred in his final four outings when he posted a 4:7 strikeout-to-walk ratio across three innings.
Chris Dominguez – Scottsdale Scorpions (Arizona Fall League)
.317/.364/.585 with 3 HR and 8 RBIs in 10 games
Dominguez went 1-for-4 as the designated hitter in his last game with Scottsdale in 2012, keeping alive his nine-game hitting streak. He ended the season in a tie for the most home runs on the team with three. In six of his 10 games, he played left field while he served as the designated hitter in three games and played third base in one contest. Dominguez, who entered 2012 having played in 303 of his 334 career games as a third baseman, switched primarily to outfield during the 2012 regular season. He played outfield in 84 of his 92 games between Richmond and Fresno.
Boof Bonser – Bravos de Margarita (Liga Venezuela Beisbol Profesional)
0-2 with a 3.65 ERA (10 er, 24.2 ip) in 6 starts
In his only start of the week, Bonser suffered his second loss of the season after he lasted 1 2/3 innings in a November 17th start. The right-hander allowed two runs on three hits and three walks while striking out one. The outing was Bonser's shortest of the VWL season.
Mitch Lively – Bravos de Margarita (Liga Venezuela Beisbol Profesional)
0-2, 1 save with a 7.71 ERA in 12 games
Lively was roughed up on November 13th against Cardenales de Lara. In what eventually became a 9-1 loss for the Bravos, Lively surrendered four runs without recording an out in the top of the eighth inning. The right-hander allowed back-to-back singles (including a bunt single) to start the inning before issuing a walk to load the bases. Lively then surrendered a two-run single to Jairo Perez, which forced Lively from the game. Silfredo Garcia spelled Lively, but Garcia proved just as effective when he allowed a two-run double to the first batter he faced (the runs were charged to Lively). Lively came back in his next outing on November 18th and did not allow a run over 1 2/3 innings. He struck out two in the November 18th outing, his first multi-strikeout performance in the Venezuela League this season.
Yusmeiro Petit – Bravos de Margarita (Liga Venezuela Beisbol Profesional)
0-2 with a 6.30 ERA in 2 starts
One of the Grizzlies' most effective starters from 2012 made his VWL debut on November 16th, allowing one run and scattering eight hits over five innings. Petit would go on to suffer the hard-luck loss after the Bravos fell to Navegantes 1-0. In his second start, Petit threw five innings and suffered the loss once again. Only this time, Petit allowed six runs on six hits while striking out five and walking one on November 22nd.
Jean Machi – Navegantes de Magallanes (Liga Venezuela Beisbol Profesional)
0-1 with a 7.11 ERA in 7 games
Machi made his VWL debut on November 13th, surrendering one run on two hits in a blown save. This set off a string of three straight outings – over three consecutive days – for Machi in which he blew a save opportunity. The right-hander took a couple days off, though, and returned to the mound on November 18th. He promptly struck out two of the three batters he faced in one inning of shutout baseball. In four appearances from November 18-23, Machi allowed one run over four innings to lower his ERA from 15.43 to 7.11.
Todd Linden – Estrellas de Oriente (Liga de Beisbol Dominicano)
.256/.393/..522 with 7 HR and 13 RBI in 29 games
Since starting the season batting .419 through his first nine games, Linden has seen his batting average fall to .256 through November 26th. In his last 29 at-bats, the switch hitter has five hits (or a .172 average). However, Linden has proven his worth with an on-base percentage of .385 over that same 29 at-bat stretch, helped by eight walks and two hit-by-pitches. His 18 walks in 29 games are tied for third most in the DWL. Linden also added two home runs between November 20th and 26th, keeping him in second place in the league for most home runs with seven.
Roger Kieschnick – Leones de Escogido (Liga de Beisbol Dominicano)
.228/.308/.391 with 4 HR and 18 RBI in 24 games
Kieschnick has not appeared in a game since November 17th when entered the game originally as a pinch-hitter in the eighth inning. After striking out, he stayed in the game as a defensive replacement in right field, but he did not bat again. Over his last 20 at-bats, Kieschnick is hitless with two walks.
Francisco Peguero – Gigantes del Cibao (Liga de Beisbol Dominicano)
.235/.257/.353 with 4 RBI in 8 games
Peguero, who along with Jean Machi were with the Giants but not active during the World Series run, played in his first game with Cibao on November 16th. He went 2-for-3 with a double, RBI and a walk. In his second game, Peguero went 2-for-4 with two doubles, an RBI and a stolen base. With the bar set high, he has cooled off a bit, going 4-for-27 from November 19th-25th – including a 0-for-8 performance during a 16-inning game on November 20th. Defensively, Peguero has played center field in all eight of his games with the Gigantes.
Wilmin Rodriguez – Leones de Escogido (Liga de Beisbol Dominicano)
0-1 with 1 save and a 4.50 ERA in 5 games
The southpaw has not pitched since November 4th.

Welcome to Watch List, where we identify five things on TV to watch while you stay at home and welcome February. Ah, February! Who doesn't love February? Ice storms, no good sports after this Sunday, massive killer blizzards, obligatory Valentine's purchases. Why, it's a dream month! LET'S GO!
LATE SHOW WITH DAVID LETTERMAN – 11:30PM (CBS)Mitt Romney, one of a few obvious candidates for the 2012 Republican presidential nomination, drops by to deliver the evening's top ten list. Because when you think comedy, you think Mitt Romney. If Letterman follows Stephen Colbert's lead and cuts to footage of Guy Smiley from Sesame Street every time Romney speaks, this Top Ten list will be vastly improved. ANTICIPATION: GIN ROMNEY!
ONE BORN EVERY MINUTE – 10:00PM (Lifetime) Lifetime's cheekily named new documentary series chronicles the goings on inside a maternity ward in a hospital in Columbus, Ohio. Tonight's premiere features moms dealing with labor pain. As someone who has two kids and has watched any number of childbirth education videos, I can tell you the majority of this episode will likely feature women bent over, grasping the hospital bed for support, and wincing in pain while their husbands stand three feet away, completely at a loss as to what to do. It's a miracle, I tell you. A painful, awkward, horrible miracle. ANTICIPATION: GRUNTING!
CHERRY GOES… – 10:00PM (BBC America) Well if her name is Cherry, I'll probably follow her anywhere. Anyway, the host of this BBC show spends an evening out with the ladies of UK, figuring out how British ladies drink (a lot) and why they do (because they just listened to a Thom Yorke solo album). ANTICIPATION: PASTY!
DIRTY JOBS – 9:00PM (Discovery) Tonight, Mike makes scrapple. A waitress told me once that scrapple is "what doesn't make it into the sausage." And I was like, there's stuff that doesn't qualify for the sausage? Like what, cartilage? Anyway, expect to see pig parts you really wish you hadn't seen. ANTICIPATION: LUNGS!
TOMBSTONE – 8:00PM (AMC) Like I'm not gonna recommend the greatest movie in the history of everything ever. I'm yo huckleberry. ANTICIPATION: ISN'T THAT A DAISY?

Republican presidential front-runner Donald Trump is worse than Voldemort, according to "Harry Potter" author J.K. Rowling.
Rowling, the famed children's book author, took to Twitter to comment on Trump's proposed policy to ban Muslims from entry to the United States. Rowling's tweet, which received more than 100,000 retweets and likes as of Tuesday afternoon, was joined by a number of Twitter users comparing the "Dark Lord," the main antagonist in the "Harry Potter" series, to Trump.
"How horrible," Rowling tweeted. "Voldemort was nowhere near as bad."
U.S. & World
Trump on Monday called for a "complete" shutdown of Muslims entering the U.S. as a national security measure until U.S. leaders "can figure out what is going on." The statement came one day after President Obama called in a national address for Americans "to reject religious tests" when admitting people into the country.
Other Republican and Democratic politicians have condemned the remarks.
Trump, asked in an interview on "Good Morning America" if recent comparisons to Adolf Hitler bothered him, said, "No."
His campaign has not commented on the comparison to fictional despotic wizard Voldemort.

This year, during TRU's October Bricktober promotions they will be giving one of the vintage 5 packs Lego released in the past free with a 59.99 purchase. These used to be $20-25 retail so this is a pretty good deal. The packaging looks like vol 1-4 in yellow, blue, green and black but the figures inside have changed slightly. No Black Falcon unfortunately and there are other single figure substitutions.

I thought it was high time that I made a tutorial strictly on "how to draw a shark", step by step. Drawing sharks can be hard if you are going in knowing little or nothing when it comes to creating fish and other sea life. The lesson I created for you includes some helpful tips that will make it that much easier when it comes to creating a shark in detail. I will add some rough sketches that will include a front view of the shark, some simple anatomy, and the teeth and jaws to one of the most dangerous fish that is feared more than any other creature that dwells in the sea. The steps are going to be rather easy for such an informative lesson. The species of shark I used is a great white because that is the king of all sharks if you ask me. Anyways I think you will enjoy this tutorial on "how to draw a shark". I will be back soon with some more drawing fun in a few. Thanks guys for joining me today, and be sure to join me every day!

I've been wary of the ingredient Carrageenan for a while. It is used as a thickener and stabilizer in a lot of foods especially in the health food industry in milk and non-dairy milks like almond milk, coconut milk, hemp milk and non-dairy and dairy ice creams. Something about it has always given me a bad vibe though it has been used in all these supposedly healthy health foods.
I started reading research studies about the negative impact on carrageenan on gut health. Alarming results showed that carrageenan has:
-carcinogenic properties
- causes intestinal damage
- is pro-inflammatory
- can cause damage to gut health and associated with digestion and gut issues
There is a lot of controversy on the studies. For one, it is hard to transfer the results from rats and mice to humans. The results on the rodents varied from study to study. And some studies used varying forms of carrageenan. Some used undegraded carrageenan (allowed to be used in food) and some with degraded (not allowed in food).
A couple of months ago, I predicted that we would start seeing "carrageenan free" labels on foods in a couple of years. Pretty soon the health concerns would be exposed and we would start to be more cognizant of putting this stuff in our body.
And as I was walking the aisles of Whole Foods the other day, I saw it. I saw it way way sooner than I had predicted. But there it was staring at me in the face "No Carrageenan" right above the "No High Fructose Corn Syrup".
I hesitated to even blog about this, in fear of instilling frustration. "What? I thought I have been doing the healthy thing by switching to almond milk, by eating coconut ice cream. How do I know what to eat?" …and as a result throw up your hands and giving up efforts to healthy eating.
That is certainly not my intention. My intention is to encourage you to read ingredient labels. If you don't know what an ingredient is, decide if you want to put a foreign substance in your body.
The food companies will always come out with new ingredients to stick in our food to make it last longer on the shelves, be more palatable, more addictive, and more attractive etc. It is impossible to keep up and research all of these ingredients. Stick to foods that are whole and unprocessed then you don't need to worry about it.

Magic Johnson, by all accounts, has been a massively successful businessman since retiring from basketball years ago. He's opened a chain of successful movie theaters. He recently sold off 100 Starbucks franchises he owned for $75 million. He even runs a food service business, which is eighty times smarter than opening some stupid vanity restaurant. Plenty of athletes go broke after retiring. Magic has proven much more shrewd than that.
All that said, there's something uneasy about the idea of Magic being in charge of a potential NFL team in LA. Magic went on Kimmel the other night and announced that he was joining AEG's effort to bring the NFL back to the nation's second largest city:
"I'm announcing this today: I've teamed up with Tim Leiweke at AEG, and we're gonna come together to bring the NFL back to Los Angeles," Johnson said.
Unlike previous LA stadium plans, AEG's proposal appears to be pretty darn plausible. And there are now conflicting reports that AEG has purchased Alex Spanos' minority stake in the San Diego Chargers, a report the Chargers have denied. Our boy Mike Florio also says that the Vikings have been contacted about relocating to LA (their stadium lease is up next year). So you could see Magic and AEG bringing either (or both) of those teams to LA within the next few years. And I'm sure the NFL would be thrilled to see Magic possibly become the first majority black owner in league history.
The problem is that, while Magic has been a huge success behind the scenes, his track record of being in charge of sports ventures (and talk shows, for that matter), is decidedly less impressive. He flamed out as head coach of the Lakers before coming back as a player. He ruined TNT's NBA studio show anytime he dropped by, and isn't any better on ESPN's pregame show.
U.S. & World
If he wants to hold a financial stake in LA's football team, that's cool. But if he's actually in charge? Picking the GM and maybe even the coach and stuff? That might get a little dicey. I'm not saying he'd hire Sheila E. as VP of personnel, I'm just saying it's not out of the realm of possibility.
So take heed, Los Angeles. The NFL may be coming your way soon. But you never know who's gonna end up running this thing.

This just in: MS Sucks!
It sucks energy and time and emotion and well…it just plain sucks.
Today, for me, is one of those "MS Days" that we tell people about in glib, flip little sentences like; "Well, there are good days and bad days."
The sun has made itself known to Seattle on a September day; not a normal occurrence. And I cannot get myself up, mentally, to go out and enjoy it. My morning slurred into noon, which then required a kip (it was one of those lay down or fall down things).
Now, I find a list of things that haven't been done, likely won't get done, and I'm feeling a failure for it (not a total failure).
What is surprising is how this logy, fatigued state can get me down emotionally. MS got me down today when even reading the expectedly inflammatory comments to last Friday's blog couldn't.
This is not MS depression.
It's just the sick-and-tired of being sick-and-tired feeling we all know so well.
We all live with MS here, be it the person diagnosed or our families. We've all had these wee bouts with fatigue-induced malaise. We've all come up with our own coping mechanisms. My fall back tricks; coffee and a cookie, watching the dogs play, feeling the sun (or rain) on my skin… they're not working today.
Today, MS has me down… Tomorrow, I hope will be better.
Wishing you and your family the best of health.

Pavilion (built)
The timber bent goes hand-in-hand with the gable-ended building. The two systems – one structural, one formal – developed in tandem, abetting each other in every aspect of the construction of space and shelter. In lifting the gabled roof, the bent thickens and defines interior space along with exterior form; it braces the form laterally, and provides a means of shedding water; and in developing the third dimension, it provides a rationality of spatial determination through relentless repetition of the two-dimensional frame in a linear forward march. The form is so well integrated that it has become an archetype of space and structure.
Four Corners reimagines the timber bent as a three-dimensional construct, unfolding through space and developing unexpected forms and relationships. Using cross-laminated timber (CLT) in conjunction with the gable-ended form, it forges a new archetype of space and structure for a transformed technology. Rather than reproduce the gabled bent, which with CLT would produce a weak form, a series of structurally rigid corners of complementary proportion are cut from a barn-shaped primitive and reassembled into a cantilevering column-assemblage. Through recombination, arraying, and stacking, a varied and unexpected labyrinth arises.
Where the traditional bent-and-gable construction was characterized by a clearly contained form and an inward spatiality, the space of Four Corners is centrifugal and open to its context. The barn-form's center is voided and the space is turned inside out. While at moments the gable is recognizable, fully assembled the project is understandable not as an object but as a broader field of structurally interdependent bents cascading in a series of improvised juxtapositions. The resulting typology is a porous mat of rooms, corridors, and courtyards concatenating one onto the next in a spatial sequence that expresses itself through exploration: one corridor may lead to a courtyard with a video installation, another to a passing view of the city outside. In the end, the project proposes a confrontation between a fragmented artifact–overloaded with social significance–and its reassembly into an abstract spatial and structural order.
Four Corners is a part of this expressive system composed of three interlocking column assemblies forming a network of corridors, courtyards, and outward-facing apses. The central courtyard space serves as a micro-exhibition space featuring a rotating series of video works by artist Noah Klersfeld. The corridors and apses lead to the windows looking out to the city, creating a series of semi-private rooms in conjunction with the existing architecture.
Each column assembly is composed of four CLT bents cantilevering off of a central 'column', which is actually an extension of one of the bent walls down to the floor. Though each bent is structurally incomplete, when assembled into the four-corners column they become rigid. Likewise, once each column assembly is attached to its neighbors, they act together to become stable. CLT is used monolithically as both structure and skin, in keeping with the tradition of timber construction. The grain of the CLT is oriented according to load condition, with column elements oriented vertically, cantilevering elements oriented horizontally, and floors and roofs spanning between the two.

Cliven Bundy, another of Fox News' good old boy heroes � you know the ones who cling to their guns and ache to overthrow the U.S. government � is also, it would appear, a racist.
"They abort their young children; they put their young men in jail because they never learned how to pick cotton," Bundy, a rancher who has been grazing his cattle illegally on federal lands for years, and who owes the government more than $1 million in grazing fees, said last week in a monologue on "the Negro."
"And I've often wondered, are they better off as slaves, picking cotton and having family life and doing things, or are they better off under government subsidy."
This should surprise no one.
We have heard similar sentiments from other Fox News darlings. But how many Cliven Bundys must Fox News embrace and promote before we recognized its unvarnished repulsion to truth and ethics in journalism.
Fox's dangerously unbalanced and agenda-driven operation is too broad to sum up here, but you will more than get the picture if I were to compare how one of its stars, Sean Hannity, dealt differently with a black man toting a Bible and a white man backed by militias.
In 2008, Hannity, in his relentless bid to derail then-Sen. Barack Obama's presidential candidacy, isolated three words (God Damn America) from an old and lengthy sermon of Mr. Obama's pastor, the Rev. Jeremiah Wright, and played them ad nauseam throughout the campaign.
Hannity contended that the pastor's remarks showed Mr. Obama to be unpatriotic, if not overtly, certainly clearly in his consorting with Rev. Wright.
In the sermon titled "Confusing God and Government," Rev. Wright said people under oppression often confused God for government, giving as examples Muslims who practice jihad, the Christians who conducted crusades, and the coalition of the willing that former President Bush led in his shock-and-awe regime change in Iraq. In that sermon, Rev. Wright also spoke about this country's "indecent" treatment of Native Americans, and Japanese-Americans after Pearl Harbor.
As to its African-Americans citizens, the reverend noted that the government "put them in slave quarters, put them on auction blocks, put them in the cotton fields, and put them in inferior schools and substandard housing�"
"The government gives them the drugs, builds bigger prisons, passes a three-strikes law and then wants us to sing 'God Bless America.' No, no, no. Not 'God Bless America', God Damn America�for killing innocent people�for treating her citizens as less than human."
However, you feel about Rev. Wright's sermon, a case can be made that his rhetoric does not rise to the same seditious level as the actions of Bundy, who doesn't "recognize the United States government as even existing."
And after losing at every level in the courts in his attempt to steal federal lands, Bundy has surrounded himself with hundreds of armed militia supporters, threatening civil war against the federal government.
This is the man Hannity has spent hours on the Fox Network promoting as a patriot and as someone to whom the government should surrender.
"The government needs to stand down," Hannity said in one interview with Bundy.
"�This is only a symptom of how one person, standing up to the government, I'm telling you, [it is] my opinion that this crisis could come to a head, and lives could be lost."
Yes, Bundy is a nut, and even a racist, but I wouldn't fret too much about him. He is merely a symptom of one of the sicknesses that is Hannity and Fox News.

Nine Minutes
BJ and Cindy,
Here is a report that I did for my college Comp II class. The
instructor said we could be creative. The subject was: What you see in
the depths of the ocean.
CAN YOU FIGURE IT OUT BEFORE YOU GET TO THE END? Nobody else has been
able to do so yet. I even stumpted the history teachers at my daughter
school. I thought it was quite an interesting approach.
Nine Minutes
By: Dawn Boger
Here I am, standing in the middle of Arizona surrounded by many
friends. My name is Lloyd McDonald Zimmerman, and I am going to tell
you what I see in the depths of the ocean while in Arizona.
Right now it is early morning; we have all just gotten up from a very
long evening. Still tired and groggy I rise to my feet. I get this
feeling that things just aren't right around here. There is a lot of
noise and it is very loud, and a lot of commotion going on around here.
I know that it is morning but I can't see a thing, everything is black.
All around me there is a strange red glow. It looks as if it could be
fire, but I feel no heat. All of this is so strange; I just don't feel
the same. I almost feel like I am floating. But wait, instead of being
in my room like I should be, I am in the ocean. What happened? How on
earth did I get here?
As I am looking around, I can see all of my mates. They all have the
same look of confusion that I have. As we all look around so many
things are out of place. We are on the ocean floor; we're not very deep
because we can also see above the water. We're in the ocean our eyes
are open, but they don't burn. Part of our house seems to be missing,
whatever could have happened?
As I look up towards the top, I can see many people. They are all
strangers to me. Many of them seem to be crying, but why? I can see
flowers floating on top of the water, I reach out to get one but I can't
grab it. Why are all of these people out here? I just can't understand
why they are so upset. Then I see a face I think I know, it is my wife
but she sure looks a lot older. But who is that man with her? He looks
just like me, but it can't be because I am here and he is there. I then
see him throw something in water. There is a ribbon with words on it.
Let me see what is says, "In loving memory of Lloyd Zimmerman, beloved
husband and father." But wait a minute, I am here, I am alive, I can
see you. But as I sit here and think I start to remember what all has
My name is Lloyd McDonald Zimmerman S2C, USN. On December 7, 1941, I
was on the USS Arizona in Pearl Harbor, on the island of O'ahu, Hawaii.
At around 0800, my ship was attacked by the Japanese Imperial Navy. A
1,760 pound air bomb penetrated into the forward magazine causing
catastrophic explosions. Causing the death of 1,104 men aboard the USS
Arizona. Who would ever think that just nine little minutes could
change so many lives?
The name that I picked is one that I got off of the Pearl Harbor Web
site. I picked this one because that was my mom's maiden name. If I
could find a way to get this to the family of the solider that perished,
I would.
I hope you enjoy this little "riddle" of a report. And by the way, I
did get an A+ on it. Thank you for your time.

Blades, motors and bodies are in short supply.
Could be a few weeks before we see any new parts.
Not good news for any of us with non-functional birds.
Tower is listing as Late January on most their parts. Hopefully it wont be long... Wish I had more information to give you Bitstop.
All Lives Matter
United We Stand, Divided We Fall
Today is the last day in January... so you can't get much later!
The Traxxas web site shows colored blades in stock and blue and green bodies.
There are parts all over the interwebs. I just got my replacement shell and black/white blades in today.
I ordered blades from Traxxas 2 weeks ago. I ordered a motor on Yesterday from both Traxxas and a set of motors and blades from one of the other companies that sell versions of the QR-1. Lets see who arrives first... The set of 4 motors + blades cost less then 1 motor from Traxxas.
My concern with doing that is what effect that may have on the warranty or replacement program. I know where your coming from though.
The parts are the same as Traxxas parts ... the serial numbers on the Hubsan X4 parts and the Traxxas are the same. I also think the cost of shipping the Traxxas back from Canada and getting it back would cost more then just buying a new unit.
I'm not disagreeing with you at all, I was just saying I don't know how traxxas would handle something like that if someone did send it in with non traxxas branded parts.
Well as of yesterday I have been waiting 2 weeks for my new motor to come in from Traxxas. I am sure it is much better for people who live in the USA but here in Canada ... The lack of parts in stock is a real pain.
Local hobby store said my parts should be in tomorrow. Still a very long time to wait for parts.
Getting ready to install the motor it looks like one of the screws holding the body together will not come out.
It looks like it it was a self tapping screw that will just refuse to remove and if i try harder I will risk stripping the head of the screw.
I know I can install the motor without removing the body but it would have been nice... It was not designed like other Traxxas devices that have been designed with repair in mind. It is designed to be a disposable product.
I have to disagree with that statement. The fact that screws were installed means it was meant to be taken apart to be repaired when needed. If not it would have been glued together or some other method meant to be permanent.It was not designed like other Traxxas devices that have been designed with repair in mind. It is designed to be a disposable product.
BlindMan Racing
Rusty - MERV - Pede 4x4-Alias
SPC Lipo Power
Fair point to both of your comments. You are both correct... However self tapping screws in plastic are not designed to be removed and re installed very many times. The motors don't plug into the main board. I don't think when the company who built the design of the quad was thinking about the effort required for repair. I think it is like an apple design where they thought about look and function and repair was someone eases problem.
You can buy all the parts for an iPhone 4, many parts are put together with glue. I would argue in many ways the manufacture of the iPhone 4 wanted it to be disposable.
Most Traxxas products are designed to be repaired from the ground up. I don't feel this Quad was.
You really expect them to thread tiny little plactic parts? Maybe It wouldn't last if you kept taking the screws out but the only reason I see for doing that is if the part it broken and going to be replaced so it doesn't matter. On such a small little thing I don't think there would be room to have plugs on everything, if a motor broke it's not hard to solder a little wire together.
My local hobby store was wrong... my parts for my blade heli that I only ordered a week ago... Not the Traxxas QR-1 parts i orderd 2+ weeks ago... DARN!
ive seen smaller screws have machine threads, on micro crawlers and micro servos. and the other tiny micro quads have plugs, why wouldnt this one?

Committee Opinion Number 738, June 2018
(Replaces Committee Opinion Number 663, June 2016) (Reaffirmed 2019)
ABSTRACT: Aromatase inhibitors have been used for the treatment of breast cancer, ovulation induction, endometriosis, and other estrogen-modulated conditions. For women with breast cancer, bone mineral density screening is recommended with long-term aromatase inhibitor use because of the risk of osteoporosis due to estrogen deficiency. Based on long-term adverse effects and complication safety data, when compared with tamoxifen, aromatase inhibitors are associated with a reduced incidence of thrombosis, endometrial cancer, and vaginal bleeding. For women with polycystic ovary syndrome, and a...

ABSTRACT: The development of menopausal symptoms and related disorders, which lead women to seek prescriptions for postmenopausal estrogen therapy and hormone therapy, is a common reason for a patient to visit her gynecologist, but these therapies are associated with an increased risk of venous thromboembolism. The relative risk seems to be even greater if the treated population has preexisting risk factors for venous thromboembolism, such as obesity, immobilization, and fracture. Recent studies suggest that orally administered estrogen may exert a prothrombotic effect, whereas transdermally ...

Menopausal therapy has been provided not only by commercially available products but also by compounding, or creation of an individualized preparation in response to a health care provider's prescription to create a medication tailored to the specialized needs of an individual patient.

Major Mitchell's cockatoo
|Major Mitchell's cockatoo
|A Major Mitchell's cockatoo with its crest raised in Queensland, Australia
|Scientific classification
Bonaparte, 1857
L. leadbeateri
|Binomial name
|Lophochroa leadbeateri
(Vigors, 1831)
C. (L.). l. leadbeateri (Vigors, 1831)
|Major Mitchell's cockatoo range (in red)
Plyctolophus leadbeateri Vigors, 1831
The Major Mitchell's cockatoo (Lophochroa leadbeateri), also known as Leadbeater's cockatoo or pink cockatoo,[2] is a medium-sized cockatoo restricted to arid and semi-arid inland areas of Australia. It is here placed in its own monotypic genus Lophochroa, though to include it in Cacatua as others do is not wrong as long as the corellas are also included there. They are also a type of cockatoo.[3][4]
With its soft-textured white and salmon-pink plumage and large, bright red and yellow crest, it is often described as the most beautiful of all cockatoos. It is named in honour of Major Sir Thomas Mitchell, who wrote, "Few birds more enliven the monotonous hues of the Australian forest than this beautiful species whose pink-coloured wings and flowing crest might have embellished the air of a more voluptuous region."[5]
Major Mitchell females and males are almost identical. The males are usually bigger. The female has a broader yellow stripe on the crest and develop a red eye when mature.[6]
Reproduction and lifespan[edit]
The bird reaches sexual maturity around 3–4 years old. The oldest recorded Major Mitchell's cockatoo died at 83 years old.[7]
Systematics and naming[edit]
It is possible, though not certain, that the Major Mitchell's cockatoo is more closely related to Cacatua than is the galah, and that its lineage diverged around the time of or shortly after the acquisition of the long crest – probably the former as this crest type is not found in all Cacatua cockatoos and therefore must have been present in an early or incipient stage at the time of the divergence of the Major Mitchell's cockatoo's ancestors. Like the galah, this species has not lost the ability to deposit diluted pigment dyes in its body plumage, although it does not produce melanin coloration anymore, resulting in a lighter bird overall compared to the galah. Indeed, disregarding the crest, Major Mitchell's cockatoo looks almost like a near-leucistic version of that species (see also "External links" below). Another indication of the early divergence of this species from the "white" cockatoo lineage is the presence of features found otherwise only in corellas, such as its plaintive yodeling cry, as well as others which are unique to Major Mitchell's and the true white cockatoos, for example the large crest and rounded wing shape.[3]
The scientific name commemorates the British naturalist, Benjamin Leadbeater. In Central Australia south of Alice Springs, the Pitjantjatjara term is kakalyalya.[8]
Distribution and habitat[edit]
In contrast to those of the galah, populations of the Major Mitchell's cockatoo have declined rather than increased as a result of man-made changes to the arid interior of Australia. Where galahs readily occupy cleared and part-cleared land, Major Mitchell's cockatoo requires extensive woodlands, particularly favouring conifers (Callitris sp.), sheoak (Allocasuarina sp.) and eucalypt. Unlike other cockatoos, Major Mitchell pairs will not nest close to one another, so they cannot tolerate fragmented, partly cleared habitats, and their range is contracting.
In the Mallee region of Victoria where the galah and Major Mitchell's cockatoo can be found to be nesting in the same area, there have been occasions where the two species have interbred and produced hybridised offspring.[9]
Conservation status[edit]
Major Mitchell's cockatoo is not listed as a threatened species on the Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act 1999.
- Major Mitchell's cockatoo is listed as a threatened species on the Victorian Flora and Fauna Guarantee Act (1988).[10] Under this Act, an Action Statement for the recovery and future management of this species has been prepared.[11]
- On the 2013 advisory list of threatened vertebrate fauna in Victoria, this species is listed as vulnerable.[12]
"Cookie," was a Major Mitchell's cockatoo and was a beloved resident of Illinois' Brookfield Zoo near Chicago from the time the zoo opened in 1934 until his death on August 27, 2016. Cookie was 83 years old and he had been retired from public display since 2009, due to ill health prior to his death.

Our top picks of classic film featuring architecture and light, including shorts and feature-length films
1. William Klein, Broadway By Light, 1958
The first film of photographer-turned-filmmaker William Klein, Broadway By Light is a dazzling study of a night-in-the-life of New York's Great White Way. Orson Wells declared that Broadway by Light was, "the first film I've seen in which colour was absolutely necessary." The camera focuses on the flashing neon bulbs of Times Square's iconic advertising and the silhouettes of men at work as they re-arrange letters on the cinema lightboxes. These aspects are offset by more impressionistic moments in the film, where riots of pure colour and movement merge in the reflections of car windscreens and puddles on the street.
2. Alfred Hitchock, Rebecca, 1940
Alfred Hitchcock's first American project Rebecca is a gothic tale. A young woman moves to Cornwall to live with her new husband, Maxim de Winter, on his country estate. The woman, who remains nameless throughout the film, arrives to find the house preserved in the memory of her husband's ex-wife Rebecca, who was drowned at sea. Hitchcock uses the shadows of architectural elements, thrown against the interior walls and surfaces, to create a sense of entrapment and psychological pressure throughout the film.
3. Jacques Tati, Playtime, 1967
Jacque Tati's 1967 film Playtime is an almost silent portrait of Modernist Paris. The film follows the misfortunes of the protagonist, Monsieur Hulot, as he navigates the ever-bewildering city. The viewer is offered voyeuristic glimpses into the stark, brightly-lit interiors of streamlined apartments, shops and offices. The familiar landmarks of the old Paris appear only as fleeting reflections in the new buildings of glass and steel.
4. Len Lye, A Colour Box, 1935
Len Lye, originally from New Zealand, was an avant-garde filmmaker in Britain during the inter-war period. He was deeply interested in movement and in portraying kinetic energy within his artistic works. He joined the GPO (General Post Office) film unit and began to experiment with painting directly onto celluloid, a technique that he pioneered. Lye presented a mass of complex and jumbled movements through painting directly onto celluloid. This had the added effect of creating a sense of off-screen space, as if the patterns are streaming in and out of the frame.
5. Stanley Kubrick, Barry Lyndon, 1975
Stanley Kubrick's acclaimed film Barry Lyndon charts the tumultuous life of a young boy in 18th Century Ireland. Kubrick used a minimal level of electric lighting in the filming of Barry Lyndon, achieved through the use of a lens with a huge aperture, allowing even scenes by candlelight to be filmed. The film has a very static and painterly quality, evoking the 18th Century paintings of William Hogarth in its composed interiors, which are bathed in natural light.
6. Patrick Keiller, Robinson in Space, 1997
Patrick Keiller's film is an essay-like portrait of England, documenting the historic landmarks and suburban sprawl that dominates the landscape. The droll voice of the narrator (Paul Scofield) unfolds these spaces, travelling alongside his fictional companion Robinson. Keiller's highly composed fixed-frame shots, present elevation-like views of interiors, facades and landscapes, with natural light flickering across the surface of rough-hewn concrete and foliage alike.
7. Moholy-Nagy, Ein Lichtspiel Schwarz Weiss Grau, 1930
Artist Lazlo Moholy-Nagy was a creator of drawings, paintings, photography, films, stage sets, graphic design and sculpture. Throughout the 1920's he developed his famous machine, Light-Space Modulator, a kinetic sculpture in which sculptural forms overlapped and rotated, creating pools of light and shifting shadows. In this short film, techniques of montage are used to evoke a space without a tangible scale, reminiscent of the pulsing modernist city.

Some old race cars are lost, never to be found. Others are simply forgotten. This Deuce coupe was never really lost, yet it was somehow forgotten—until David Turner heard that Red Stanley's dominating A/Gasser had been roosting in a chicken coop for more than 40 years within 10 miles of Red's Ringgold, Georgia, home.
With the help of Mike Goodman and Larry Rose, we tracked down builder Red Stanley, 82, who acquired the stock '32 in 1957, trading for a trophy-winning '40 Ford sedan. In went one of Pontiac's 347-inch V8s, adapted to a '39 Ford Top Loader tranny and an early Ford rearend. Red managed to launch the car and not the differential by using only Second and High gears, he explains. After he upgraded to Pontiac's new 370-incher in 1958, the additional power necessitated a modern Ford three-speed and 9-inch rear. In 1959, he again went with Pontiac's latest and greatest: a 389 bored and stroked to "at least 430 ci," fed by three Rochester carbs. Asked what times it ran, Red smiles and says, "Heck, the timing equipment was so primitive, the times wouldn't be accurate, anyway, but I really don't remember. The car ran over 100 miles an hour. We were more concerned with winning races than speeds and e.t.'s."
Red's friend, boss, and racing partner, Robert Nance, took over in 1961, installed a Dodge wedge, and eventually resold the car to Leslie Anderson, who raced with a Ford engine (and taped over the word Dodge visible here) until retiring the coupe to his chicken house in 1967. It was Leslie who sold the Deuce to David Turner, who plans to put it back on the street—for the first time since 1957—while preserving the race car look and as many vintage pieces as possible.

"Kozol, today's most eloquent spokesman for America's disenfranchised, won a National Book Award for Death at an Early Age, and this new work is every bit as powerful. Reading it is a revelation…A searing trip into the heart of homelessness." —Chicago Sun-Times
"A searing indictment of a society that has largely chosen to look the other way…One would need a heart of stone not to be moved." —New York Times
"Jonathan's struggle is noble. What he says must be heard. His outcry must shake our nation out of its guilty indifference." —Elie Wiesel
"Among the many virtues of Jonathan Kozol's strong and often beautiful books is that we cannot forget for even an instant that the poor are our own kind and live but a moment away." —The Nation
"I haven't experienced the same kind of shock over a book since the first time I read John Steinbeck's The Grapes of Wrath." —Chicago Tribune
"At a time when Americans are struggling to see through the political, racial, and economic walls that separate them, Jonathan Kozol comes along with a window. Like an Old Testament patriarch, he rages at what he calls the greed and 'theological evil' of our time." —USA Today
"Extraordinarily affecting…A very important book. To read and remember the stories in this book, to take them to heart, is to be called as a witness." –The Boston Globe
"A book that should be read by every middle class (and any class) American…pulls us, willingly or not, straight into the heart of what it means to be a homeless family in America."—San Francisco Chronicle
"Bitterly eloquent." –Newsweek
"Compelling, moving, eloquent…An extended tour of Hell." –Los Angeles Times
"Gripping desperate stories of more than a dozen families and their children…Kozol bears witness to their suffering and to the inhumanity of the system created to help them." –The Atlanta Journal and Constitution
