Track & Field Heads To IC4A & ECAC Outdoor Championships
Related Links
ALBANY, N.Y. – Championship season continues for the University at Albany track & field program with a trip to Princeton University this weekend for IC4A and ECAC Outdoor Championships. The Great Danes just swept their 10th straight America East Outdoor Championship meet, with the men claiming their 14th straight outdoor title and the women winning their 10th-straight.
"Our student-athletes really stepped up," said Director of Track & Field and Cross Country Roberto Vives. "We couldn't ask more of them. They all performed well. We saw meet records in the men's triple jump and the women's 4x100m relay. The women were just the cream of the field. I really thought it was our best team performance ever. Normally there are about 25% mishaps in a meet like this, and this year we had much less than that. The kids really stepped up and performed like true champions."
The men and women each won eight events over the weekend, with the women setting a new championship meet record in the 4x100m relay and the men seeing a new championship record in the triple jump. Further, most of the performances at the championship meet were seasonal or personal bests.
"A big part of what happens is trying to get our student-athletes to try to peak at the right time," said Vives. "And I think we finally got that formula down. You see with the distance program Coach Jones trying to go every two weeks. With our short sprinters Junior limits them amount of events they do at a meet. With our jumpers, for some of them it was only their third meet. Sometimes less is more. Everybody seemed to peak."
For the duration of the weekend, the Great Danes scored points in all but two events, the women's pole vault and the women's 5,000m. UAlbany did not field a competitor in either event.
"The performances at the top spread out to the whole team," said Vives. "And we kept emphasizing that everyone counts, that we need everyone, and that the championship can be won by as little as half a point. And our kids really bought into that. Our program is built on the shoulders of our alumni who have set the bar high and now kids have embraced that."
Perhaps the most dominating performers of the meet were the women's short sprinters. Not only did they set a championship meet record in the 4x100m relay by nearly a full second, the Great Danes claimed nine of 16 total scoring positions in the 100m and 200m, including sweeping the top four places in the 100m.
"Our short sprint group, on the women's side especially, has been tremendous," said Vives. "They definitely stepped up to the challenge. The group is impressive, and I think they have national aspirations. If they stay healthy through regionals they can qualify for national championships in Oregon and run with the best from the SEC and the ACC."
Looking to this weekend's meet, the most noteworthy change this year is in the format of the schedule. For the first time, excluding last year where the weather forced dramatic scheduling changes, all events will be contested as single-round timed finals.
"I think the format change has made the meet better," said Vives. "After coming off a conference championship our kids are still recovering and still tired. At this point we're looking to get people to the next level, which is qualifying for regionals. We have a few knocking on the door individually, and few others are comfortably in the qualifying field already. This meet, the whole emphasis is to get people qualified."
With the format change comes a change in the required approach for student-athletes who otherwise would have prepared to run multiple rounds of their event at a championship meet.
"Where the new format is good is that the student-athlete can focus on one race and get a quality performance right off the bat," said Vives. "But where it's different is they have to be warmed up and prepared. You don't want afterwards to feel like you weren't ready for your single opportunity, so we have to do more with them up front to make sure they're ready to go."
Unlike the indoor season, where the IC4A and ECAC Championship meets hold a higher significance to teams in the region, the outdoor meet doesn't necessarily hold the same weight, due to a number of factors such as conflicts with other conference championships as well as commencement weekends. In years past, under the previous format, UAlbany seniors would have to choose between competing in the finals of their events, should they have qualified, or walking at their commencement ceremonies.
"It's hard to know who we'll see this weekend," said Vives. "Outdoor IC4A and ECAC Championships are kind of optional, and a lot of schools have their conference championships this weekend. And there is a meet at Army this weekend as well that may draw teams away. But we will focus all of our attention on IC4A and ECAC Championships."
IC4A and ECAC Outdoor Championships will begin Saturday, May 12 at 10:00 a.m.

GBP/JPY is expected to trade with a bullish bias above 150.85. Although the pair posted a pullback, a support base at 150.85 has formed and has allowed for a temporary stabilization. The relative strength index is mixed.
Therefore, as long as 150.85 is not broken, we are cautious with up targets at 152.10 and 152.60 in extension.
Alternatively, if the price moves in the direction opposite to the forecast, a short position is recommended below 150.85 with the target at 150.45
Strategy: BUY, stop loss at 150.85, take profit at 152.10
Chart Explanation: the black line shows the pivot point. The price above the pivot point indicates long positions; and when it is below the pivot point, it indicates short positions. The red lines show the support levels and the green line indicates the resistance levels. These levels can be used to enter and exit trades.
Resistance levels: 152.10, 152.60, and 153.00.
Support levels: 150.45, 150.15, and 149.60

Holidaymakers fishing at the Raglan Wharf
During the Christmas holiday break fishing is as good a way as any to pass a lazy summer's day. Here are several families on holiday trying to teach their children how to fish. I doubt if they will catch anything in this location as if you click and enlarge the picture you can see that the water here is only very shallow.

people often fish off the front of the wharf Dave, I wonder if that is any better? It will be good when they get the replacement buildings up there. I miss checking out the pottery shop that was there :)

Beijing: China today voiced its resolute opposition to a call by UN human rights experts to release a Chinese jailed activist, describing it is "gross interference" in its domestic affairs and judicial sovereignty. UN human rights experts expressed concern about Yang Maodong, a jailed rights activist whose health is reportedly "deteriorating" after a hunger strike, and urged Chinese authorities to release him, state-run Xinhua news agency reported.
"This is gross interference in China's domestic affairs and judicial sovereignty and China is resolutely opposed to it," foreign ministry spokesperson Hua Chunying said in a statement.She said the comments from the UN human rights experts are irresponsible and based on false information, and called on them to do objective and fair work and have constructive dialogue with all countries."Yang's health condition is normal and his legitimate rights are guaranteed, based on information from relevant departments," Hua said.
Yang was sentenced to six years in prison by a court in southern China in November last during a crackdown on human rights advocates. PTI

FrontierVille Hay Fever seizes the wild west with poopcarts and more
FrontierVille has unloaded a batch of new farm related tech with their new Hay Fever item update. In addition to the infamous Double Rainbow written about earlier, thirteen awesome items (some more awesome than others) were released.
These decorations, while lacking in function, certainly deliver in the form department. The three different colored poopcarts are quite exquisite. Not to mention, I know how badly some readers have desperately wanted their very own sleeping bear on a cart decoration for months! And rightly so I might add.
Continue reading to see all the new goods including the graceful yet poignant Bear Cart and Poopcarts.
So maybe you're looking to make your FrontierVille Facebook frontier town more realistic. Farms in real life are covered with manure (poop) of all shapes and sizes. Personally, I don't think three colors of poop is quite enough to portray the nuances of realistic manure. Another staple of every farm is hay. The Hay Fever items deliver in this department as well with the Hay Cart, which allows you to boast sneakily to all your friends your farm is a healthy and thriving one. Or if you're trying to depict the struggle of life in the west, the Empty Hay Cart may be more appropriate (for best results, use shanty decor on your buildings).
Also available are the elegant Buggys and the farming equipment. Needless to say there is something for everyone in the Hay Fever update.
Blonde Buggy - 20 Wood, 9,500 Coins, 100 XP
Brown Buggy - 20 Wood, 9,500 Coins, 100 XP
Mower - 25 Horseshoes, 150 XP
Farm Rake - 5 Wood, 1,900 Coins, 20 XP
Bear Cart - 39 Horseshoes, 234 XP
Seed Drill - 8 Wood, 3,200 Coins, 32 XP
Hay Cart - 16 Horseshoes, 96 XP
Empty Hay Cart - 16 Wood, 15,000 Coins, 150 XP
Brown Poopcart - 25 Horseshoes, 150 XP
Green Poopcart - 25 Horseshoes, 150 XP

Employers cut 533,000 jobs last month, bringing losses so far this year to 1.91 million, the Labor Department said today in Washington. November's drop exceeded all 73 forecasts in a Bloomberg News survey. The unemployment rate rose to 6.7 percent, the highest level since 1993.
Payrolls are likely to keep sliding into next year as the collapse in credit and slump in spending hurt companies from General Motors Corp. to Citigroup Inc. and AT&T Inc. President- elect Barack Obama, confronting what he called a crisis of historic proportions," announced a plan last week to save or create 2.5 million jobs over two years.
Payrolls were forecast to drop by 335,000, according to the median estimate in the Bloomberg survey. The jobless rate was projected to rise to 6.8 percent. Revisions for September and October increased job losses by 199,000. November was the 11th consecutive drop in payrolls.
Factory payrolls fell 85,000 after decreasing 104,000 in October. The return of 27,000 striking machinists at Boeing Co. last month helped limit the drop.
Economists had forecast a decline of 100,000 manufacturing jobs. The decrease included a loss of 13,100 jobs in auto manufacturing and parts industries.
Today's report also reflected the housing slump and the worst credit crisis in seven decades. Payrolls at builders dropped 82,000 after decreasing 64,000. Financial firms decreased payrolls by 32,000, after a loss of 31,000 jobs the prior month.
Service industries, which include banks, insurance companies, restaurants and retailers, subtracted 370,000 workers after declining 153,000 in the previous month. Professional and business services, a category that includes temporary workers, eliminated 136,000 jobs. Retail payrolls decreased by 91,300 after a decline of 62,200.
Education and health services industries added 52,000 jobs and government payrolls increased by 7,000.
The employment slump was a key factor in determining the start of the recession. The National Bureau of Economic Research, the arbiter of U.S. business cycles, announced this week that a contraction began in December 2007, the month payrolls peaked.
At 12 months, the recession is already the longest since the 16-month slump that ended in November 1982.

At BEP Education we celebrate the achievement of our students and reward them for hard work. Recently, we organised end of year achievement and award night night at Barnfield HuB, Greenwich London.
Many parents, local organisations and dignitaries who attended the event includes; the former Mayor of the Royal Borough of Greenwich Councillor Harry Singh, The Chair of Friends Of Barnfield Estate Mr. James Ayanda and others.
The presence of parents gave the children a great source of encouragement, they were delighted to see the support they got on such warm summer evening.
This is what BEP seeks to achieve – Bringing parents and students together to celebrate, support and take full ownership of their children's learning. The achievement of the children who attends our provision reflects in the grades they achieve in their mainstream school.
Many categories of award were given to students who showed resilient and determination to learn. Blessing Mananga was AWARDED for 100% attendance and excellent behaviour whilst Rhema Mananga receives the Director's award for kindness and always supporting others. Thank you guys!
The success of BEP Education and the achievement of our students in mainstream school so far has surpassed expectations. Working in partnership with mainstream schools to track student's performance is paying dividend as evidenced by one of our secondary students winning a Gold Certificate at the UK Junior Mathematical Challenge Competition. He was asked by his school's Maths teacher to present the Gold Certificate to the Saturday School in recognition of his progress and achievement since attending the provision.
BEP student – Habib displaying his GOLD CERTIFICATE won at the UK Junior Mathematical Challenge Competition.
A very big Congratulations to you Habib!!

President and Prime Minister congratulate Leander Paes on Australian Open victory
New Delhi, February 1 (IANS)
President Pranab Mukherjee and Prime Minister Narendra Modi Sunday congratulated Indian tennis icon Leander Paes for winning the Australian Open mixed doubles title in Melbourne, partnering Swiss veteran Martina Hingis.
Modi tweeted:
Leander Paes continues to make us proud! I congratulate him on the Mixed Doubles win with Martina Hingis at the Australian Open. @Leander— Narendra Modi (@narendramodi) February 1, 2015
President Pranab Mukherjee also expressed his happiness.
"Congratulations to Leander Paes on the Mixed Doubles win at the Australian Open."
Paes and his Swiss partner Hingis, former World No.1, beat French-Canadian team of Kristina Mladenovic and Daniel Nestor, who won last year, in straight sets to clinch the mixed doubles crown.
The 41-year-old Paes has now won 15 Grand Slam titles – eight men's doubles and seven mixed doubles. It was his third mixed doubles triumph at Melbourne Park, having also won in 2003 with Martina Navratilova and in 2010 with Cara Black.

I feel like if I commented on any of these, I'd be giving away where they're going to be placing in the contest.
I will say, I thought Azbaz's story was going to be boring as shit since well it's Robin fucking Hood and I've heard the story several times already, however the path I picked was way better than I expected.
Nothing like beating the shit out of a shop keep, stealing his bow and then burning the place down.
You spelled both my name AND game wrong. Smh.
Steve was shooting for the top, and as much as I want to say that he's a failure of an irishmen with no hope for success, not that he isn't in other areas, but his story now looks like the top competitor for first...
...which makes my story being rated higher than his even better. Get wrecked @Steve24833 Hopefully this will transfer over to the judging, but in the mean time, I'll get to reading the rest of these.
This was not at all an excuse to post while my name is bolded AND red
Oh, we're doing this? Fuck me, they're not even finished judging, and you're trying to scuttle out of your loss already? So be it. Anyhow, the rating system is fucked as most people are idiots. That's obvious, as one of my very worst games, Achilles, is rated like second best amongst what I've written. We clearly entered this contest as competition, so we'll just have to wait to see who wins.
It is done. Sent my ratings in.
Kept going back and forth on a lot of the top ones since the best ones were really good.
Went ahead and featured Steve and Ebon's stories. Was planning to do it after the results, but figured might as well do it now.
Many thanks. This was a fantastic thing to wake up to, and 1 of my goals are from the beginning of this contest are finally completed. The other two rest upon the results...
Edit: If I manage to snag first place from Steve, then I will also have gone from my measly 100 points to 500.
Oh, and congrats to Steve as well.
Congratulations Steve and Ebon! Does anybody know if there's ever been another member besides EM or Steve with 5 featured storygames authored or co-authored simultaneously? I'm not that aware of CYS's past with regards to previously featured games, and I love knowing stats like this.
I should get around to finishing my WIP soon.
I think JJJ probably did. Besides Midnight Sun, all his remaining stories except for one were all previously featured and when he was around featured stories didn't get changed quite as much so pretty sure he had five simultaneously at one time.
Oh, that makes sense. I didn't think of 3J (probably because he's still gone). Thanks.
I don't have his trophy... yet! :)
Oh yeah, I never responded with gloating to this. Yeah, I'm pretty amazing. I've also had the top story of the year every year I've been here.
Probably the first time someone has written "This story sucks" in their own description and it actually doesn't suck.
I'll probably be reading most of them over the weekends when there are fewer children padding about.
@Bucky Would you be so kind as to give us a day estimate? Like will the results be up tomorrow, or Saturday...?

Wilma's Florida Wreckage
Three Weeks After Hurricane, Tens of Thousands, Including Many Elderly, Are Homeless
DELRAY BEACH, Fla. -- The red tag taped to Ann Passon's window means that she can't return home.
The roof of the condominium above hers blew off during the battering winds of Hurricane Wilma, leaving Mrs. Passon's home with water damage that worsens with each rain. After a county inspector tagged her condo as uninhabitable, Mrs. Passon moved in with her sister for two weeks, and then began a vacation with her daughter last Wednesday. "After that, I really don't know," says Mrs. Passon, who won't give her age but who...

Cardiff Sea Safaris are licensed by the Maritime Coastguard Agency (MCA) to 20 miles from a safe haven as well as local authority licences issued by Cardiff Harbour Authority. We operate to a strict Safety Management System (SMS) which provides clear operational procedures including regular:
- Risk assessments
- Emergency drills and procedure training
- Shore side procedures
- Pontoon boarding procedures and method statements
- Maintenance procedures
- Training programme and marine safety manual
- Passage plans
- Search and Rescue plans
Cardiff Sea Safaris Safety Management System is regularly reviewed by qualified experts in the power boating field.
Safety Equipment
All Cardiff Sea Safaris Vessels carry up-to-date safety equipment in accordance with local and flag state (UK) requirements which includes equipment for:
- Abandoning the vessel
- Protection from the cold
- Treatment of first aid incidents
- Man Overboard Recovery
- Communications
Our skippers are in constant communication via VHF radio with the MCA, appropriate VTS/harbour authorities for our locations and other commercial/leisure vessels as well as our dedicated shore team by phone.
As with all boats we can be called upon at any time to assist another vessel in difficulty and due to our responsiveness, frequency of operation and level of equipment carried we have been able to help others in difficulty in the Bristol Channel on a number of occasions. We do not view ourselves as just a commercial operator, preferring instead to be seen as a responsible operator in the Cardiff Bay boating community and helpful wherever necessary to ensure that Cardiff Bay is as safe as possible for all water users.
Cardiff Sea Safaris carries both Public and Employer Liability Insurance in line with our legal requirements.
All Cardiff Sea Safaris Skippers are qualified to the level of RYA Advanced Powerboat with a Commercial Endorsement and benefit from extensive local knowledge and experience in using high speed craft with fare paying passengers.

You can dream big at Country Comfort Bedrooms & Fine Furniture with their 10,000 sq. ft. showroom of quality mattresses and real wood furniture. Owners Darryl and Laurie Nyirfa guarantee their customers get exactly what they want because in most cases they can personalize their orders.
"For dining rooms they can choose various sizes of tables, sideboards and cabinets. In bedroom furniture you can choose size and style of bed, size of night tables and sizes of dressers…you can also choose a specific wood and stain. Chairs and bar stools are customizable with color, fabric and height. They can even purchase off the floor if we have what they want" said Darryl. With over 30 different dining sets and over 25 bedroom suites on display at all times, the selection is excellent. They also carry a large selection of bookcases, pantries, desks and pieces for the living room like coffee and end tables and entertainment units.
The quality of their product is what sets them apart and made them repeat BOB Award winners in the categories of 'Best Furniture' and 'Best Home Décor.'
"We're known for our solid wood and Canadian made furniture," said Darryl. "We like to support the Canadian economy. The quality is far superior compared to imported items." You can tell too. When you walk through the doors it smells of real wood and not a blast of formaldehyde.
Laurie added, "Many Canadian suppliers now spray with water based lacquers instead of chemicals. You can refinish wood products after years of use and little assembly, if needed, is required."
One of their most popular pieces of furniture is the 'Cabinet Bed'. It is made of solid birch and birch plywood and comes with a soy based foam mattress that has a gel infused memory foam on top of it.
"It is half the price of what a Murphy Bed would cost you and it can be moved from one room to another. It looks like a nice piece of furniture and can hold a 60" TV on top of it and it opens to a bed and closes within 30 seconds," said Laurie. And if you sell your home, you can take it with you.
With over 50 years combined experience between them, Laurie and Darryl have a way of making things look nice. They carry a wide variety of pictures, lamps, mirrors and accessories to help complete any room.
"You can buy your bedroom suite, bedding, lamps and accessories and you can do the whole shop in one stop. It is the same thing with your dining room here," said Laurie.
Items with a rustic or industrial look are most requested, but Darryl and Laurie of Country Comfort Bedrooms & Fine Furniture can give customers access to the websites of their suppliers to see what else is offered besides what they have on their showroom floor.
Beautiful, quality made pieces of furniture with hidden practical uses and the décor to complete the look see Country Comfort Bedrooms & Fine Furniture.

There's nothing like a meditation session with your children before bed. Actually, we find it such fun and so relaxing, it has become part of our bedtime routine. This is a moment that we come together as a family, sit quietly to reflect on our day and to gather good spirits for the night ahead.
My kids fully enjoy the experience. Right now, we're listening to the children's meditation app by Deepak Chopra "My Light Shines Bright". The meditations are delightful for children : a nice 15 minute break which is just enough for them to sit still without squirming, clear instructions and great focus.
I like to discuss our meditation awareness afterwards with my little ones. This allows me to communicate in a playful way with my children and they understand immediately what is expected from them. Before sending them off to school in the morning, I will remind them to "switch on their light". We often refer to the things we are "thankful" for. And the pleasure of "giving and receiving".
Parenting with meditation is a great tool to open your children's mindset to infinite possibilities, not to mention the benefits for their health. Meditation brings an opportunity to live happier and healthier lives. If I succeed in one thing, I hope it will be to give my darlings the courage to love.

In this newsletter we review APRA's quarterly statistics for the December quarter on the profitability of the superannuation insurance sector at an aggregate and a product level, as well as explore the regulators upcoming focus.
Profits for Superannuation Group Risk Products continued at significantly reduced levels in the December quarter, ($235m profits in the first half of 2016 compared to only $81m in the second half of 2016), due primarily to Group Lump Sum.
Superannuation Group Lump Sum profits continued at reduced levels, last seen in 2014. Profits significantly reduced from $281m in the first half of 2016, to $25m in the second half of 2016.
Superannuation Group Disability Income reported the highest profits for the past 10 quarters at $43m, predominately due to a reduction in reserves.
ASIC has confirmed it will shortly be issuing notices to nearly 50 trustees, asking them questions about their insurance arrangements including time frames for claims and complaint resolution and details about incentives such as premium rebates that may be available to the trustees by insurers. In addition, ASIC expects that a small number of trustees will be selected for more detailed review once they have analysed the responses to the initial notice.
ASIC has also indicated that it is pleased to see the establishment of a Superannuation Industry Working Group to consider the development of a code for life insurance in superannuation. ASIC's view is that it is important that consumers can expect substantially the same standards to apply whether they hold life insurance inside or outside of superannuation.
In the newsletter we have outlined various actions super funds should be undertaking to address the above points.

My Year in Movies Recap:
One of the best years for film in my lifetime (only 2013 and 2011 rival it), selecting my personal awards for 2016 was a challenge. Out of 125 films seen, 12 earned 4.5 stars (out of five) while another (Silence) received a perfect rating the minute I left the theater. Three films snuck on to my Top 25 of the decade list as well.
My view count probably would have been higher had I not dove into TV as much as I did last year too. But this was quite a year on the small screen too. I had quite the busy schedule between weekly series like American Crime Story and Atlanta on FX and even online streaming like Casual on Hulu. Then, of course, the binge-watching shows on Netflix and Amazon Prime like House of Cards, Luke Cage, and Transparent. But returning to film…
There were 27 films with four-star ratings as well. Collectively, 2016 films had an average rating was a 3.5. Of the 16 years that I have seen 40 or more new releases, that's by far the highest score. Maybe I've just become an easier grader but one year of high grades hardly constitutes a trend. Maybe 2017 will take a dive but for the sake of the industry that is struggling to pull people to see more than that blockbuster everyone sees, hopefully, cinema is just as good as this year.
Though, I'm mostly commenting on the state of American entertainment. I've only been able to see three foreign-language films from 2016 so far. Those are a bit harder to come by until early in 2017 (at least the major releases competing for an Oscar). So my 2016 film watching is not yet over and I still need to see 20th Century Women, Lion, and Paterson to feel complete in my assessment of the past year on the silver screen. And I feel it's important to release this before the Oscars nominations release on Tuesday. But in general, this has been a terrific year for the medium worth celebrating.
In addition to my awards, I've also added a bonus selection for each category with a short explanation for that pick since they're more obscure choices compared to the nominees that are (for the most part) acclaimed and ones you've probably already heard about. Okay, Kate Plays Christine isn't that popular. Or The Lobster. Or Knight of Cups. . . . Or A Bigger Splash. You got me, but really, they're all worth checking out. I'm sure you've at least heard of La La Land.
Without further ado…
My 2016 Film Awards
Top 25 Films
1. Silence
2. Arrival
3. La La Land
4. Kubo and the Two Strings
5. Kate Plays Christine
6. Nocturnal Animals
7. Jackie
8. Hail, Caesar!
9. O.J.: Made in America
10. Manchester by the Sea
11. The Neon Demon
12. Blue Jay
13. American Honey
14. The Edge of Seventeen
15. Knight of Cups

20. The Nice Guys
21. The Witch
22. Sing Street
23. Love & Friendship
24. Captain Fantastic
25. Everybody Wants Some!!
Worth your attention: The Shallows
Released in early summer, this was a true surprise to most. But for those that have been following Jaume Collet-Serra as a serious filmmaker, this gave greater support of him as a serious filmmaker with deft ability for thrills and cerebral filmmaking alike. This set the bar for modern shark attack movies and Blake Lively showed her acting chops can match her husband Ryan Reynold's any day.
Best Director
1. Martin Scorsese — Silence
2. Dennis Villeneuve — Arrival
3. Damien Chazelle — La La Land
4. Tom Ford — Nocturnal Animals
5. Pablo Larrain — Jackie
6. Kenneth Lonergan — Manchester by the Sea
7. Nic Winding Refn — The Neon Demon
8a. Robert Greene — Kate Plays Christine
8b. Ezra Edelman — O.J.: Made in America
Worth your attention: Kelly Fremon Craig– The Edge of Seventeen
I also put Craig under consideration for best original screenplay, but it's worth singling her out for her directing too. It's rare that an accurate teen comedy comes around comes around. More important, for all the comparisons to John Hughes movies, Craig finds her own voice here and pulls the most out of the talented duo of Woody Harrelson and Hailee Steinfeld.
Best Lead Actress
1. Natalie Portman — Jackie
2. Amy Adams — Arrival
3. Mary Elizabeth Winstead — 10 Cloverfield Lane
4. Emma Stone — La La Land
5. Tilda Swinton — A Bigger Splash
6. Sarah Paulson — Blue Jay
7. Isabelle Huppert — Elle
8a. Sasha Lane — American Honey
8b. Hailee Steinfeld — The Edge of Seventeen
Worth your attention: Sally Field — Hello, My Name's Doris
Though Field gave an Oscar-nominated turn in Lincoln a few years back, she has mostly gone under the radar. But this little gem of a film hides what might be one of her best performances in her career swiftly balancing awkward comedy and drama together to create one of the year's most unique films.
Best Lead Actor
1. Casey Affleck — Manchester by the Sea
2. Viggo Mortensen — Captain Fantastic
3. Andrew Garfield — Silence
4. Ryan Gosling — The Nice Guys
5. Collin Farrell — The Lobster
6. Josh Brolin — Hail, Caesar!
7. Ewan McGregor — Last Days in the Desert
8. Ryan Reynolds — Deadpool
Worth your attention: Andy Samberg — Popstar: Never Stop Never Stopping
Probably easily shrugged off as a "goofy" movie in line with Hot Rod, there's a certain skill that comes with being a stupid, arrogant musician. Whatever it is, Samberg has it in spades with a unique brand of physical and timely comedy.
Best Supporting Actress
1. Naomie Harris — Moonlight
2. Michelle Williams — Manchester by the Sea
3. Riley Keough — American Honey
4. Lily Gladstone — Certain Women
5. Kristen Stewart — Certain Women
6. Cate Blanchett — Knight of Cups
7. Janelle Monáe — Moonlight
8. Kathryn Hahn — Bad Moms
Worth your attention: Gillian Jacobs — Don't Think Twice
It could just be my affinity for Community (Jacob's greatest claim to fame), but Jacobs is put on full display here as a struggling artist dealing with her boyfriend (a fantastic Keegan-Michael Key for anyone missing Key & Peele too). Thanks to a fantastic script, the whole cast is, but Jacobs handles some of the more dramatic scenes by herself in the most amazing ways. She's literally a one-woman show at times.
Best Supporting Actor
1. Alden Ehrenreich — Hail, Caesar!
2. John Goodman — 10 Cloverfield Lane
3. Mahershala Ali — Moonlight
4. Ralph Fiennes — A Bigger Splash
5a. Michael Shannon — Nocturnal Animals
5b. Aaron Taylor-Johnson — Nocturnal Animals
7. Russell Crowe — The Nice Guys
8. Peter Sarsgaard — Jackie
Worth your attention: Jack Reynor — Sing Street
What resonates with most people from Sing Street is its coming of age aspect through the soundtrack's help. Reynor is the guide to most of that and provides a counter story arc that works wonders in comparison to his brother's journey.
Best Original Screenplay
1. Manchester by the Sea — Kenneth Lonergan
2. Hail, Caesar! — Coen Bros
3. The Lobster — Yorgos Lanthimos, Efthymis Filippou
4. La La Land — Damien Chazelle
5. The Nice Guys — Shane Black
6. Blue Jay — Mark Duplass
7. Jackie — Noah Oppenheim
8. The Edge of Seventeen — Kelly Fremon Craig
Worth your attention: Midnight Special — Jeff Nichols
Each year seems to have a few films with common films. This year was spirituality in film. Nichols crafts a surprisingly grounded look at spirituality in modern America despite all its sci-fi tropes and does so with minimal dialogue. He's not just a wordsmith, he's a story teller that knows how to write visuals.
Best Adapted Screenplay
1. Nocturnal Animals — Tom Ford
2. Silence — Martin Scorsese, Jay Cocks
3. Arrival — Eric Heisserer
4. Love & Friendship — Whit Stillman
5. Moonlight — Barry Jenkins
6. Elle — David Birke
7. Deadpool — Rhett Reese, Paul Wernick
8. Fences — August Wilson
Worth your attention: Denial — David Hare
Some films are boosted by the circumstances that surround their releases, this British production is one such occasion. While the importance and gravity of the Holocaust will always remain, a film that details a little-known court case that put the Holocaust on trial by proxy of taking down a denier is absolutely essential in this "post-truth" and "alternate-fact" world.
Best Cinematography
1. Arrival — Bradford Young
2. Silence — Rodrigo Prieto
3. La La Land — Linus Sandgren
4. The Neon Demon — Natasha Braier
5. The Witch — Jarin Blaschke
6. Nocturnal Animals — Seamus McGarvey
7. American Honey — Robbie Ryan
8. Moonlight — James Laxton
Worth your attention: Midnight Special — Adam Stone
In line with Nichols' script, Stone's portrayal of Texas and Louisiana is absolutely stunning and captures the pureness of the story with all its biblical parallels with gravitas. Pure spectacle.
Best Film Editing
1. Nocturnal Animals — Joan Sobel
2. Silence — Thelma Schoonmaker
3. Arrival — Joe Walker
4. La La Land — Tom Cross
5a. Jackie — Sebastián Sepúlveda
5b. Kate Plays Christine — Robert Greene
5c. O.J.: Made in America — Bret Granato, Maya Mumma, Ben Sozanski
8. Manchester by the Sea — Jennifer Lame
Worth your attention: Knight of Cups — A.J. Edwards, Keith Fraase, Geoffrey Richman, Mark Yoshikawa
Terrence Malick's productions have always been cerebral landscapes difficult to navigate for the common viewer. This may not be an exception, but the story he tells through the lens of Christian Bale in a non-speaking role could only be told through the editing room. With four editors choosing from shots taken from multiple cameras including some GoPro shots, the result is absolutely stunning.
Best Production Design
1. Kubo and the Two Strings — Nelson Lowry
2. La La Land — David Wasco
3. Silence — Dante Ferretti
4. Jackie — Jean Rabasse
5. Arrival — Patrice Vermette
6. The Witch — Craig Lathrop
7. The Neon Demon — Elliott Hostetter
8. Hail, Caesar! — Jess Gonchor
Worth your attention: High-Rise — Mark Tildesley, Nigel Pollock
I've always been a sucker for single location films. This takes place in a rather large apartment complex, but the methods stay largely the same — create a detailed world that takes on the characters' personalities. This certainly does that and is some great eye candy to boot.
Best Costume Design
1. Jackie — Madeline Fontaine
2. La La Land — Mary Zophres
3. Hail, Caesar! — Mary Zophres
4. The Neon Demon — Erin Benach
5. Kubo and the Two Strings — Deborah Cook
6. Love & Friendship — Eimer Ni Mhaoldomhnaigh
7. The Witch — Linda Muir
8. Doctor Strange — Alexandra Byrne
Worth your attention: The Nice Guys — Kym Barrett
Could fall under the category of production design too but something should be said for how well Shane Black's 70s aesthetic is pulled off. It's slick and wholly encompassing, fitting both Russell Crowe and Ryan Gosling's personalities to a T.
Best Makeup & Hairstyling
1. Jackie
2. Silence
3. Deadpool
4. Hail, Caesar!
5. The Neon Demon
Worth your attention: Toni Erdmann
Few films since Holy Motors have had characters whose personalities are shown through their makeup so well. In steps Toni Erdmann whose very premise wraps around a character who lives through multiple personas to find an odd connection with society.
Best Original Score
1. Arrival — Jóhann Jóhannson
2. Jackie — Mica Levi
3. La La Land — Justin Hurwitz
4. The Neon Demon — Cliff Martinez
5. Patriots Day — Trent Reznor, Atticus Ross
6. Hail, Caesar! — Carter Burwell
7. Nocturnal Animals — Abel Korzeniowski
8. Moonlight — Nicholas Britell
Worth your attention: Swiss Army Man — Andy Hull, Robert McDowell
What first starts out as a long fart joke turns into a surprisingly emotional and poignant comedy. That's large-in-part thanks to Hull and McDowell's revelatory soundtrack that's bound to be an earworm after the credits roll.
Best Original Song
1. "Go Now" — Sing Street
2. "Another Day of Sun" — La La Land
3. "I'm So Humble" — Popstar: Never Stop Never Stopping
4. "Can't Stop the Feeling" — Trolls
5. "Drive it Like You Stole It" — Sing Street
6. "Someone in the Crowd" — La La Land
7. "Mona Lisa" — Popstar: Never Stop Never Stopping
8. "City of Stars" — La La Land
Worth your attention: "A Minute to Breathe" Before the Flood
Maybe I'm just a sucker for Atticus Ross and Trent Reznor, but this is some next-level songwriting from the Nine Inch Nails front man and David Fincher muses. Haunting vocals and piano makes this a must-listen (if not must-watch documentary) that can apply to more than just climate change. Shouldn't matter what side of climate change you're on.
Best Sound Mixing
1. Patriots Day
2. Hacksaw Ridge
3. Arrival
4. Silence
5. Deepwater Horizon
6. La La Land
7. Captain America: Civil War
8. Jason Bourne
Worth your attention: Justin Timberlake + The Tennessee Kids
Obviously not something many people watch a film for…sound mixing. But people sure do come for JT and his music. Jonathan Demme's documentary of The 20/20 Experience Tour would be nothing without a proper sound mix. That's worth something.
Best Sound Editing
1. Silence
2. Hacksaw Ridge
3. Patriots Day
4. Arrival
5. Captain America: Civil War
6. Deepwater Horizon
7. Doctor Strange
8. Deadpool
Worth your attention: Ghostbusters
A bit of an odd choice, admittedly, considering the backlash surrounding the film. Even if you're not a fan of the film, it's hard to argue against its technical production. The visual effects while not perfect were at least enhanced by some believable sound effects added in post.
Best Documentary
1. Kate Plays Christine
2. O.J.: Made in America
3. Weiner
4. Tickled
5. 13th
6. Before the Flood
7. Gleason
8. Lo and Behold: Reveries of the Connected World /i>
Worth your attention: Hate Rising with Jorge Ramos
This isn't a feature-length production but it's still worth noting (and it's readily available) for its deep investigation into American consciousness.
Best VFX
1. The Jungle Book
2. Arrival
3. Kubo and the Two Strings
4. Doctor Strange
5. Rogue One: A Star Wars Story
6. Deepwater Horizon
7. A Monster Calls
8. Captain America: Civil War
Worth your attention: Now You See Me 2/i>
It's a bad movie. But damn, it has some incredibly impressive practical and visual effects that makes for box office material good enough to call for a third episode following the Four Horseman. Speaking of Four Horseman, X-Men: Apocalypse had another version of Four Horsemen (of the Apocalypse) and has one of the best sequences of the year as well thanks to some real effects mixed with state of the art tech.
Best Ensemble
1. Manchester by the Sea
2. Nocturnal Animals
3. Hell or High Water
4. Hail, Caesar!
5. Everybody Wants Some!!
6. 10 Cloverfield Lane
7. Moonlight
8. Jackie
Worth your attention: Maggie's Plan
A vastly underseen film but certainly worth a watch thanks to some great chemistry between Greta Gerwig, Julianne Moore, and Ethan Hawke. Even Bill Hader gets in the mix and is a true scene stealer. All told, the film has some of the most unique power structures and character arcs in recent memory, none of which would have worked without this great ensemble pulling its weight.

Ray Kelly is the current police chief of the NYPD. He's on his way out. He and Bloomberg have been New York's gun-grabbing dream team. In addition to trying to eliminate the 2nd Amendment, they've also been active in nullifying the 4th and 5th Amendments with their "stop and frisk" policies, which have been made necessary by their nullification of the 2nd Amendment.
Like most liberals, they don't at all practice what they preach. They want guns among law-abiding citizens confiscated, which would leave all guns in the hands of criminals and government officials, both of which are becoming more and more indistinguishable.
So, as soon as Kelly's term as commissioner is done, and when he becomes a "civilian" like the rest of us, he will be afforded heavily armed officers all at taxpayer expense. NRAILA.org reported:
According to a NYmag.com article, Kelly has requested a team of six NYPD detectives to keep him and his family safe back in civilian life. And get this: it's reported that each detective would make $120,000 a year, and the taxpayers–the very ones he wants unarmed–will be required to pick up the entire bill!
According to a Huffington Post article, Kelly says he needs the taxpayer-funded, round-the-clock protection because he's a "high profile target," and requested the contingent of detectives to shepherd him around town and protect him and his family during their travels so they can be safe. But he would deny that same option of self-protection and safety to you. By the way, Kelly's request is not typical; only one other person in his position has taken a city-funded detail after leaving the post.
Mayor Bloomberg has prepared for the dangers of civilian life in a similar fashion by employing 17 officers for his own private security detail. NRAILA.org stated that "those officers will all file for immediate retirement, collect their pensions, and head off to work for the billionaire ex-mayor, who will be paying each of them $150,000 a year."
"Rights for me, but not for thee," as they say.

Éliane Radigue (born January 24, 1932) is a French electronic music composer. She began working in the 1950s and her first compositions were presented in the late 1960s. Until 2000 her work was almost exclusively created on a single synthesizer, the ARP 2500 modular system and tape. Since 2001 she has composed mainly for acoustic instruments.
The Symphony No. 3 by Gustav Mahler was written in 1896, or possibly only completed in that year, but composed between 1893 and 1896. It is his longest piece and is the longest symphony in the standard repertoire, with a typical performance lasting around 90 to 105 minutes. It was voted the tenth-greatest symphony of all time in a survey of conductors carried out by the BBC Music Magazine.

Florence Beatrice Price was an American classical composer. She was the first African-American woman to be recognized as a symphonic composer, and the first to have a composition played by a major orchestra.
Florence Beatrice Smith was born to Florence Gulliver and James H. Smith on April 9, 1887, in Little Rock, Arkansas, one of three children in a mixed-race family. Despite racial issues of the era, her family was well respected and did well within their community. Her father was a dentist and her mother was a music teacher who guided Florence's early musical training. She had her first piano performance at the age of four and went on to have her first composition published at the age of 11.
By the time she was 14, Florence had graduated from Capitol High School at the top of her class and was enrolled in the New England Conservatory of Music with a major in piano and organ. Initially, she pretended to be Mexican to avoid the prejudice people had toward African-Americans at the time. At the Conservatory, she was able to study composition and counterpoint with composers George Chadwick and Frederick Converse. Also while there, she wrote her first string trio and symphony. She graduated in 1906 with honors and both an artist diploma in organ and a teaching certificate.
She taught in Arkansas briefly before moving to Atlanta, Georgia, in 1910, where she became the head of Clark Atlanta University's music department. In 1912, she married Thomas J. Price, a lawyer, and moved back to Little Rock, Arkansas. After a series of racial incidents in Little Rock, particularly a lynching in 1927, the family moved to Chicago, where Florence Price began a new and fulfilling period in her compositional career. She studied composition, orchestration, and organ with the leading teachers in the city including Arthur Olaf Anderson, Carl Busch, Wesley La Violette, and Leo Sowerby, and published four pieces for piano in 1928. While in Chicago, Price was at various times enrolled at the Chicago Musical College, Chicago Teacher's College, University of Chicago, and American Conservatory of Music, studying languages and liberal arts subjects as well as music.
Financial struggles led to a divorce in 1931, and Florence became a single mother to her two daughters. To make ends meet, she worked as an organist for silent film screenings and composed songs for radio ads under a pen name. During this time, Price lived with friends and eventually moved in with her student and friend, Margaret Bonds, also a black pianist and composer. This friendship connected Price with writer Langston Hughes and contralto Marian Anderson, both prominent figures in the art world who aided in Price's future success as a composer. Together, Price and Bonds began to achieve national recognition for their compositions and performances. In 1932, both Price and Bonds submitted compositions for Wanamaker Foundation Awards. Price won first prize with her Symphony in E minor, and third for her Piano Sonata, earning her a $500 prize. Bonds came in first place in the song category, with a song entitled "Sea Ghost." The Chicago Symphony Orchestra, conducted by Frederick Stock, premiered the Symphony on June 15, 1933, making Price's piece the first composition by an African-American woman to be played by a major orchestra.
Price was inducted into the American Society of Composers, Authors, and Publishers in 1940 for her work as a composer. In 1949, Price published two of her spiritual arrangements, "I Am Bound for the Kingdom," and "I'm Workin' on My Buildin'", and dedicated them to Marian Anderson, who performed them on a regular basis.
On June 3, 1953, Price died from a stroke in Chicago, Illinois. Following her death, much of her work was overshadowed as new musical styles emerged that fit the changing tastes of modern society. Some of her work was lost, but as more African-American and female composers have gained attention for their works, so has Price. In 2001, the Women's Philharmonic created an album of some of her work. Pianist Karen Walwyn and The New Black Repertory Ensemble performed Price's "Concerto in One Movement" and "Symphony in E minor" in December 2011.
– Composer: Joseph-Maurice Ravel (7 March 1875 — 28 December 1937)
– Performers: Alban Berg Quartett
– Year of recording: 1984
String quartet in F major, written in 1903.
00:00 – I. Allegro moderato. Très doux
07:41 – II. Assez vif. Très rythmé
14:34 – III. Très lent
23:53 – IV. Vif et agité
The Quartet in F major was Ravel's final submission to the Prix de Rome and the Conservatoire de Paris. The composition was rejected by both institutions soon after its premier on 5 March 1904 by the Heymann Quartet. The quartet received mixed reviews from the Parisian press and local academia. Gabriel Fauré, to whom the work is dedicated, described the last movement as "stunted, badly balanced, in fact a failure." Ravel himself commented on the work, "My Quartet in F major responds to a desire for musical construction, which undoubtedly is inadequately realized but which emerges much more clearly than in my preceding compositions."
As a result of major criticism and rejection, a frustrated Ravel left the Conservatoire in 1905 following what was later called the Ravel Affair. Ravel's loss during the 1904 Prix de Rome and rejection from the Conservatoire de Paris catapulted his career not backwards but forward: a sympathetic public rallied behind his compositions and musical style. In 1905, Claude Debussy wrote to Ravel: "In the name of the gods of music and in my own, do not touch a single note you have written in your Quartet."
Ravel's string Quartet in F major stands as one of the most widely performed chamber music works in the classical repertoire, representing Ravel's early achievements and rise from obscurity. On CD, it is often coupled with Debussy's own string quartet. The quartet follows a strict four movement classical structure: Moderato très doux begins as a sonata form allegro, the following Assez vif-Très rythmé functions as the quartet's scherzo, while Très lent acts as a contrasting foil. The last movement, Vif et agité, reintroduces themes from the earlier passages and ends with a striking finale.

Chagas Disease
It is originated by Trypanosoma cruzi, a parasite transmitted by vinchucas, which are insects that feed on blood and mainly live in rural and periurban areas of Latin America. Other forms of transmission are blood transfusions, organ transplantation and mother-child transmission during pregnancy.
In Argentina, Mundo Sano has been carrying out activities in strategic spots: in Añatuya, Santiago del Estero, it carries out entomological surveillance and control actions in the urban area, and since 2005 it has been developing a program for sanitary amelioration of rural houses.
Mundo Sano's initiatives – backed by over twenty years of experience– are performed in close relation with the communities intervened, with strict care of and respect for their habits and customs.
Diagnosis and treatment of the disease
As part of this project, Mundo Sano develops actions of diagnosis and treatment of Chagas disease in Avellaneda District in Santiago del Estero, in the urban area of Pampa del Indio, Chaco province, and in the rural area of La Plata, Buenos Aires province. In all these cases it is supported by local health authorities.
Mundo Sano's actions have also reached Spain in order to address the issue of Chagas disease in the communities of Latin American migrants. There, prevention, training, diagnosis and treatment actions are being carried out and the program Madres comprometidas con la enfermedad de Chagas (Mothers committed with Chagas disease) was launched, aimed at training infected women so that they can act as intercultural mediators and help in the tasks carried out by the foundation together with several health centers.
Within the framework of this project, by late 2011, it faced a new challenge: as a result of an important global crisis in benznidazole production, the main drug to treat Chagas disease, the foundation, together with the Ministry of Health of Argentina, convened Maprimed and Elea pharmaceuticals to have this drug wholly developed in Argentina. Thus, in March 2012, local production of benznidazole and its availability were announced. Since 2013, all countries in the Americas can have access to it through the strategic fund of the Pan American Health Organization (PAHO).
Besides, benznidazole, –considered "an essential drug" by the World Health Organization (WHO) – was exported to Spain, Australia, Italy, Switzerland and Panama.
On the other hand, Mundo Sano signed an agreement with the Drugs for Neglected Diseases initiative (DNDi) to make Elea the second world producer of benznidazole pediatric formulation. The importance of this initiative lies in the evidence showing that detection and administration of the treatment in children infected with Chagas disease are essential: 9 out of 10 children treated during their first year of life are cured.

Cool video. This will help lots of people.
Situation Outbreak is an Orange Box mod about the impending zombie apocalypse. Armed with nothing but a 9mm and a pair of brass knuckles, you must do whatever it takes to survive against the thousands of zombies that used to be your friends and neighbors. The cost of failure is nothing less than your free will. There are no heroes. No single person can save the world and there are not enough bullets to go around. The only thing left to do is to kill the damned, hoping that you don't end up like them.
Cool video. This will help lots of people.
Thanks. Yeah, we plan on getting at least one or two of these out each week to help new players along and enlighten those who may have been unaware of such features in the past. This should help us a bit publicity-wise, too.
Tutorials are indeed a good way to win new players as I experienced myself how frustrating it can be to play some multiplayer mods the first times without having a clue until you have learnt how to survive by trial and error (or better: getting killed and respawning)... :/
loks very nice! should be a awesome mod!
v1.51 has already been released! Check out our Downloads page, silly. =P
LOoks good. It's very usefull.
it is like l4d or killing floor
Ah damn, I rebound Mouse3 to my voice chat key, it's what I do for most games.
Don't worry, MOUSE3 is only the default and can be changed. Whatever "Special Attack" is binded to, that's what the health kit uses to heal teammates.
nice update on the deagle i see its black (how am i the first to comment on this??)
Thanks. Probably because it's actually being discussed here: Moddb.com
wow! never knew u could heal team-mates!!! thx for the tut
Not a problem. =D
I'd like to know what music that is.
Our own. It was created in-house exclusively for Situation Outbreak. It's the music first heard on the main menu screen after you launch the mod.

The picture of it appeared pretty,but it was nicer than I hoped even. It has a excellent silky-like texture and the shades are well-blended and vibrant. It is also perfectly made.So far it's managed to get through two cold winters.
This scarf is quite soft and looks exactly like the photo.I can twice wrap this scarf for an extremely nice fit.EASILY wanted to triple wrap it certainly,I can,nonetheless it becomes quite snug on the neck and goes ideal up to the chin like a turtle neck would.I really like that I could wear this scarf to work or on trips in a more informal setting.Price is excellent too for the quality of this scarf.
The material rocks ! and plus its being worn by me now at the job! Colours are great! I have to admit that I initially bought this scarf as a present but once I received it I made a decision to keep it for myself and order another gift!! GOOD DECISION! I will definitely buy more scarves from this seller since the quality and price is right!
Its an ideal size and color.Mustard yellow is my favorite color and most of enough time when I purchase something online and expect it to be that color it fails me.It really is too green or too bright of a yellow constantly.This color is prefect.The scarf can be the perfect size.Not too big and not thin.I love it!!!
Really keeps you warm! In October we used this during our visit to Canada & the Atlantic seaboard. Very good quality product & quickly shipped.We loved these so much,we ordered 3 of them in different colors.I've hand washed them (in cool water) & hung them on the back of a metal folding chair to air dry – no complications.Great company & product.Would order again.
Although my mother resides in TX she gets cold quickly.Primarily when she received it she protested saying she was as well old to use something trendy (she is 63).Upon insisting that she at least check it out,she did and a smile crept over her face.She said it kept her warm while looking very flattering also.My mother is usually a religious female and was thrilled to note that she could also use this as a head covering if she had a need to at a prayer conference.

Following the biotech sector is never dull, and 2007 was no exception to the rule. Genentech
That's the way things go in the biotech world. Let's review what else happened in 2007.
Some baby biotechs grow up, and others bomb
Spectacular successes and large blowups both marked the year in biopharma. Stalwarts Millennium Pharmaceuticals
ImClone's success in 2007 was the most striking. ImClone ended 2006 without a leader, taking a pounding from down lawsuits over the patents protecting Erbitux. Many onlookers, including me, were predicting a tough year for the drugmaker, especially with Amgen's competing colorectal EGFR inhibitor Vectibix just entering the market at the tail end of 2006.
But ImClone surprised everyone. It brought in a new CEO. It vanquished concerns over future sales growth with strong Erbitux data that will probably lead to an approval for treating lung cancer. It found the Vectibix competitive worries to be overblown. It settled the most serious lawsuits. And it advanced its pipeline nicely. The company was pretty much successful on almost all fronts, and ImClone's share-price gains this year prove it.
Unlike Millennium and ImClone, PDL BioPharma didn't have a good year. Its lead drug Nuvion failed in phase 2/3 testing as a treatment for late-stage ulcerative colitis. Its CEO got the ax after a drawn-out drama with hedge funds and other investors. And it's still looking for a buyer, since nobody has stepped up with an offer.
Other notable biotech stories this year included Dendreon's
Drumming up a buying frenzy
In addition to the deals and collaborations we're used to seeing in this sector, hedge funds and activist investors such as Carl Icahn and Third Point's Daniel Loeb mixed it up in the biotech sector more than ever during 2007.
Icahn, for example, tried to orchestrate big-pharma interest in biotech. Sometimes, the results were positive, such as with AstraZeneca's $15 billion buyout of MedImmune. But other times, the results weren't as pretty, such as in Icahn's recent failure to help find a buyer for Stock Advisor selection Biogen Idec.
Investors also got to watch large-cap pharmas and biotechs make several multibillion-dollar biotech bets, including Celgene's $2.9 billion buyout of Pharmion, Schering-Plough's $14 billion acquisition of Organon BioSciences, and the closing of Merck KGaA's merger with Serono.
On the collaboration front, AstraZeneca and many of the other big pharmas jumped on the RNAi technology wagon, following Merck's
When regulators and lawmakers attack
The FDA served up its annual dose of unexpected regulatory decisions. The Dendreon caper provided the biggest FDA fireworks in 2007, but there were plenty of other stories to follow in the world of regulations and regulators.
For one, in finally passing the new PDUFA regulations, Congress gave the FDA several new mandates, including a renewed focus on safety and more power to enforce phase 4 post-approval clinical studies.
Congress also came close but couldn't agree on regulations that would have made approval easier for generic biologics (or biosimilars, as they are more accurately known). Drugmakers such as Momenta Pharmaceuticals
Meet the new year ...
Biotech has a particularly frenetic and exciting 2007. The sector kicks off 2008 with the JPMorgan health-care conference next week, and with all of the regulatory decisions coming up, the year ahead promises to be just as lively as the year we're leaving behind.
Millennium and Momenta are both active picks of our Rule Breakers newsletter service. You can check out all of our other recommendations with a 30-day free trial.

Reason Why The Prisoners Are Executed In The Early Morning
Reason Why The Prisoners Are Executed In The Early Morning. Execution of prisoners is quite a big issue in India, but it is not the same situation in other countries like Dubai, USA etc. Usually, culprits in big cases get imprisoned for years in Indian jails and only when the culprit has committed unforgivable crime he/she will be given capital punishment.
You would have come across many scenes in movies that depict hanging convicted prisoners in the early morning and also heard in news about the same. Usually, the execution will take place in the presence of judicial executioner, a magistrate or his representative, a doctor and few policemen.
Have you ever wondered why prisoners get hanged only in the early mornings? If so you can get your answer here from our page. Read on to find out the Reason Why The Prisoners Are Executed In The Early Morning.
Why prisoners are hanged in early hours?
- The prisoners are executed in the early hours with an intention not to disturb the other prisoners who are in line for execution. Prisoners may end up feeling restless if they witness the execution with their eyes, so it is done in early hours.
- According to the law in California, death warrant is only valid for a day. So prisoners should be executed within one day of the issue of a death warrant or else they should apply for re-petition for a new warrant.
- Medical tests will be performed on the prisoner before execution and so much paper work need to be done before and after execution. So, prisoners will be executed in the early hours not to disturb the daily schedule.
- Executed prisoners family members can perform the last rites without any delay if the execution is happened in the early hours.
- The early hour execution is aimed at reducing the anxiety of the prisoner who is set for execution.

When I first moved out on my own, I lived on a diet of Mr. Noodles, rice and chocolate bars. That lasted a year, until I convinced myself I did want to live past the age of 30 and taught myself how to make a couscous salad. Calculated out correctly, I could manage to buy all the ingredients for less than $30 and make a gigantic batch that would last most of the week and use the remaining money to buy the real deal: books.
When Jay and I moved in together, I feared for our health. He had hardly cooked at all, and I couldn't make anything elaborate to save my life. Once, when I was younger, I watched a Rachel Ray show and convinced myself that I could make a delicious pasta dish for my family. I spent a crap ton of money on the fancy cheeses that were called for. When I put the dish in front of my family, I smiled proudly at its glorious appearance, then watched as everyone dug in. Expressions betrayed them and I knew I had messed something up. It was tasteless. A few years later, Jay and I decided to make an Indian dish together for one of our anniversaries. I pulled my mini table into the middle of the room, dressed myself up and got ready for our date. We each took a few polite bites before admitting defeat and ordering pizza.
All this to say, if I can do it, so can you!
I began collecting cookbooks a few years ago; passing judgement almost immediately after my first recipe. My two go-to's have always been Deb Perelman's Smitten Kitchen and the Martha Stewart Meatless cookbook. But now, another has joined their ranks. Based on the very popular and beautiful blog, Love & Lemons, The Love & Lemons Cookbook is my new favourite kitchen tool.
I love so much about the book, but the most important things are as follows:
- There are helpful images. There are some step-by-step photos, and always pictures of the finished dish, which I need to make sure I did everything right! Also, I love that though the cookbook is by a husband/wife duo, it is not filled with pictures of them looking cute and cuddly in the kitchen. I know Gwyneth and Ella are pretty people, but I don't care about what they look like in the kitchen. I'd like to see the food, please and thank you.
- These are combinations I wouldn't think of by myself! I hate seeing all the healthy cookbooks that have pages dedicated to "Green Beans w/ Lemon" followed by a cute picture of the cook sprinkling lemon on green beans, with the recipe beneath: "Sauté your green beans, sprinkle with lemon, enjoy!" How much did I pay for this?
- It is flavourful! I made the Cauliflower, Chickpea and Coconut Fried Rice and holy smokes, it was delicious! Everything I have made so far (5 recipes) has been absolutely delicious, different and have been good portions – enough to save for lunch tomorrow!
- The basics section! The end has a great section where you can learn the basics to smoothies, guacamole, salsa, hummus, but then also all the fun add-ins to make it special. I love being able to reference this whenever I want a little twist on a classic treat.
- The commentary is great. I don't often read the cookbook commentary, but this one has playful, fun stories and actual helpful information. Jeanine & Jack genuinely love food and it shines through every page.
I've used this cookbook every few days since I bought it a few weeks ago, and compare notes with a coworker who is also working his way through it with his girlfriend. I love knowing I am eating flavourful, healthy meals and learning to be a better home cook in the process.
I highly suggest checking out the blog and if you like the looks of it, totally pick the book up for yourself. I foresee many more spice-stained pages in my future!

Since the late 1980s, shallow lakes in Europe and North America have been receiving concerted attention from limnologists, fishery biologists and lake managers. These developments relate to deterioration of water quality in the lakes due to pollution and accelerated eutrophication, caused by increased urbanization and agriculture in the lake catchments, overexploitation of fish and higher water level fluctuations. The water-quality and management problems of lakes have led to a greater need for fundamental researches on shallow lakes in order to gain a deeper insight into the structure and functioning of the food web in these waters. New knowledge relating to littoral-pelagial interactions and the sediment-water interface has facilitated the development of new lake restoration techniques.
This volume, with 41 peer-reviewed papers, comprises the proceedings of the 5th International Symposium on Shallow Lakes, which was held at Dalfsen, The Netherlands, on 5-9 June 2005. It has the theme Shallow Lakes in a Changing World and deals with water-quality issues, such as changes in lake limnology, especially those driven by eutrophication and pollution, increased nutrient loading and productivity, perennial blooms of cyanobacteria and loss of biodiversity. The general consensus is that the lakes under restoration respond by showing an increase in water clarity followed by an increase in macrophyte coverage and biomass. Consequently, there is now ground for theoretical speculations on the so-called `alternate stable states' observed in many such lakes under restoration.
