ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. (AP) ? Extreme athlete Felix Baumgartner hopes to make a second attempt to become the world's first supersonic skydiver with a 23-mile free fall over New Mexico on Sunday or Monday.
Baumgartner aborted his mission Tuesday due to high winds, and his team had hoped the weather would allow him another try Thursday. But now they're looking at the next window being Sunday or Monday.
Baumgartner is hoping to become the first skydiver to break the sound barrier by jumping from a capsule floated more than 120,000 feet into the stratosphere by an ultra-thin, 55-story helium balloon.
The jump was postponed due to wind Monday, then aborted at the last minute Tuesday because of wind gusts. The balloon is so delicate that it can take off only if winds on the ground are 2 mph or less.
Baumgartner is disappointed "like the rest of us" but taking a couple of days of critical downtime, his high-performance athletic trainer, Andy Walshe, said Wednesday.
Team meteorologist Don Day noted during a media briefing at the Roswell launch site that weather delays are common in stratospheric ballooning.
"It takes a lot of patience," said Joe Kittinger, a former Air Force captain whose free-fall record Baumgartner is trying to break. Kittinger is a lead member of Baumgartner's team, and will be the only member of mission control who will communicate directly with Baumgartner during his nearly three-hour ascent in a pressurized capsule.
Kittinger said his 1960 jump, the first attempt to break the sound barrier, also was delayed by weather. He leapt from a helium balloon-floated, open-air gondola from an altitude of 19.5 miles.
"I was ready to go and had to wait," Kittinger said at the briefing. "It's frustrating. But you have to go through it. What you see is what you get."
Kittinger reached 614 mph, or Mach 0.9. Baumgartner, a former military parachutist from Austria, hopes to reach 690 mph, or Mach 1.
Kittinger also was involved in the Air Force's Excelsior project, making a series of parachute jumps from helium balloons in the stratosphere in 1959 and 1960. Excelsior was a test bed for the nation's space program. With one balloon flight, "we waited 30 days and we never got it off," Kittinger said.
Baumgartner's team had hoped to make the launch in the summer, when there is less winds, but was forced to delay it until October because of problems with the capsule.
One of the disappointments of Tuesday's aborted launch was losing the balloon. The balloons are so fragile that once they are taken out of the box, they cannot be reused. The team has one more balloon. Team members said they are looking for a backup, but that could take four weeks or more.
Art Thompson, the project's technical director, said there likely would be windows in the weather for making the jump through November, but declined to speculate on long-term plans beyond that.
The jump is being sponsored by energy drink maker Red Bull. The costs have not been disclosed. But Thompson said Wednesday the balloons cost several hundred thousand dollars each, and he estimated the team lost $60,000 to $70,000 in helium with the aborted jump.

car insurance-Ionia ? I keep it off
on October 9th, 2012 Posted in Car Insurance Quotes
car insurance Ionia MI You will see more drivers on the road each year. With so many vehicles on the road, accidents can happen. If you get in a car crash, the auto insurance you have can make a big difference in the experience you have. But why do you need insurance and just how much do you need? Insurance requirements will differ by state/province, but usually include the following: Liability: This type of insurance coverage can pay for the damage that you have caused. These damages might include bodily injury, and property damage. Bodily injury damages include medical expenses, and lost wages. Property damage can refer to car repair costs and loss of property use. If you are sued, it also pays your legal fees. Recommended, higher levels of insurance can be purchased that cover more events than the stripped-down, state-mandated varieties. Personal Injury Protection: This type of insurance pays for the medical treatment for you and other people in your car, regardless of who was at fault in the collision. It is mandated in some states and optional in others. The minimum amount of personal injury protection is typically set by local government. Medical Payments: This coverage is available in states that are not considered no-fault; it pays despite who may be responsible. It pays for all insured person?s necessary medical and funeral expenses resulting from a crash. Collision: Damages resulting from a car accident will be covered under this type of car insurance. Comprehensive: Cover your car from damages from other sources by purchasing this type of insurance. This can include protection from theft, vandalism, and fire or flood damage. Uninsured Motorist: Too many drivers are breaking the law by driving without having the right amount of insurance. This insurance will cover you if one of these drivers hit you. Under-Insured Motorist: Just like uninsured coverage, this type of insurance protects you against people driving without sufficient insurance coverage. Other types of coverage, such as car rental, are also available. Your auto insurance payments vary by company and will depend on multiple factors, such as: *Your desired coverage *Your vehicle?s make and model * Your driving record * Your age, gender and marital status * The place where you live Many drivers may not want to pay for auto insurance, but it is honestly something you don?t want to live without. Review your needs, do your research , and with the support of your insurance agency, choose the option that best suits you.

UI research may help build a better drug

Discovery of new biological pathway may help scientists redesign certain diabetes drugs to eliminate or reduce adverse side effects
Many drugs work by "fixing" a particular biological pathway that's gone awry in a disease. But sometimes drugs affect other pathways too, producing undesirable side effects that can be severe enough to outweigh the drug's benefits.
Such is the case for the thiazolidinedione drugs (also known as TZDs), which are used to treat type 2 diabetes. These are highly effective in controlling blood glucose levels and have an added benefit of lowering blood pressure in some patients. However, TZDs cause unrelated but potentially severe side effects in some patients, including heart failure, bone fracture, and to a lesser degree heart attack or bladder cancer depending on the specific TZD. The actual risks vary depending upon a patient's specific circumstances. Nonetheless, because of increased recognition of these unwanted effects, the rate of new TZD prescriptions is on the decline.
"We wanted to discover how TZDs lower blood pressure, so that more specific drugs might be developed that retain the beneficial effect of TZDs but eliminate the detrimental side effects," says Curt Sigmund, Ph.D., professor and head of pharmacology at the UI Carver College of Medicine, and senior author of a new study published Oct. 3 in the journal Cell Metabolism.
The TZD drugs activate a protein called PPAR-gamma. Genetic mutations in this protein disrupt the normal function of blood vessels and cause high blood pressure in people.
Sigmund and his colleagues wanted to home in on the function of PPAR-gamma in blood vessel, so they created a genetically modified mouse where the PPAR-gamma expressed in the blood vessels was mutated. These mice developed high blood pressure.
Using these mice to study how disruption of PPAR-gamma leads to high blood pressure, the researchers uncovered a new biological pathway (called the Cullin-3 pathway) in blood vessels, which may be the key to the blood pressure-lowering effects of TZD drugs.
The study showed that the activity of Cullin-3 in blood vessels is important for maintaining normal blood pressure, and decreased activity of Cullin-3, through disruption of PPAR-gamma, leads to increased blood pressure.
The study results may also help explain another recent finding that mutations in Cullin-3 cause early onset hypertension in people.
Sigmund notes that early research in mice has shown that new molecules, which target PPAR-gamma in new ways, do not have the side effects of TZDs. Whether these new drugs work through the Cullin-3 pathway identified by the UI team will require additional research, he says.
"Our study has added importance because some drugs, which target Cullin-3 and other Cullin proteins, are currently being tested as chemotherapies," adds Sigmund, who also directs the Center for Functional Genomics of Hypertension. "Our findings suggest that blood pressure will have to be monitored in patients undergoing these treatments."

In addition to Sigmund, the UI research team included, Christopher Pelham; Pimonrat Ketsawatsomkron; Severine Groh; Justin Grobe; Willem de Lange; Stella-Rita Ibeawuchi; Henry Keen; Eric Weatherford; and Frank Faraci.
The research was funded in part by grants from the National Institutes of Health and the American Heart Association.

Basic Information On Proper Elder Care At Home | Life Coach ...
By Administrator on Oct 8, 2012 in Home and Family
Maybe one of the significant responsibilities of a kid to his or her folks is to grasp and look after them when they get older. When caring for old folks, there are many options available for you. You may opt to quit in your job and concentrate in your mum and dad ? care, work at home while attending to your ma and pa ? wants or keep going with your job and just simply hire a certified nursing assistant to look after their requirements.
Your decision will significantly depend on the health condition of your parents, your financial stability, as well as the provision of health insurances that cover elderly home care. Regardless of what your decision will be, do not forget to chat about it with your parents. Now getting into the subject, these are some of the fundamental tips and guidelines when caring for senior elders, according to certified nursing assistant classes in Denver.
Firstly , you need to learn how to accept the way they are now. While older adults incline to become a little grouchy, slow and out of focus, you must understand that their abilities now are limited compared to when they were bit younger. In this case, it is very endorsed to keep things easy for them. You need to also find out how to work out with their limitations in the best possible way that they won't feel just like a burden to you.
While it's normal to get angry sometimes you should never attempt to scold them. In case you have unintentionally raised your voice out of annoyances, remember to apologize. As much as humanly possible, you should keep the communication intact. When talking about their physical and nutritive wishes it's important to give them a nutritionally dense diet and keep them active through straightforward exercises and daily activities such as gardening and walking.
While the energy requirements can decline with age, it is crucial to know their express daily nutritional wants from their doctors and diet consultants. If possible, you must give them a well balanced diet rich in fiber, protein, vitamins and minerals. Avoid giving them foods heavy in fat and sugar. Since anemia is kind of commonly found in older adults, make sure that their iron intake is satisfactory.

NEW YORK (AP) ? Jozy Altidore was dropped Monday from the U.S. roster for critical World Cup qualifiers, and Landon Donovan was among the 24 players selected despite injuring his left knee last weekend.
Altidore has nine goals in 10 games this season for AZ Alkmaar in the Netherlands and is tied for the Dutch league lead with eight goals, but had little impact during two qualifiers against Jamaica last month.
"I communicated with Jozy that I was not happy about his latest performances with us, maybe even over the last 14 months," Klinsmann said during a conference call. "I think Jozy can do much, much better and the reason why he's not coming in is mainly about the performances in Jamaica and at home, also in training. Also certain things that went on through the May-June camp."
Earlier, Klinsmann was critical of Altidore in an espn.com interview that ran Sept. 28. Altidore, according to multiple reports, responded with a tweet, which since has been removed: "Love when people try to blame others for their own short comings and incompetence."
Klinsmann said he didn't know whether that was directed to him.
The 22-year-old Altidore has 13 goals in 51 international appearances but none since November's exhibition at Slovenia. He arrived late at the May-June camp when his club cited FIFA regulations and blocked him from reporting on time.
The Americans are training in Miami this week, play at Antigua and Barbuda on Friday and then host Guatemala on Oct. 16 at Kansas City, Kan. The U.S. figures to need a win and a tie to advance to next year's six-nation regional finals, which will produce three qualifiers for the 2014 tournament in Brazil.
Donovan was injured Saturday night, leaving the Los Angeles Galaxy's game with 10 minutes remaining. Klinsmann said Donovan told him the knee felt better and he was reporting to the national team Monday.
Klinsmann also bypassed Rapid Vienna's Terrence Boyd, who has seven goals for his club this season, and San Jose's Chris Wondolowski, who leads Major League Soccer with 25 goals, in favor of Seattle's Eddie Johnson and the Earthquakes' Alan Gordon. Johnson has not played for the national team since May 2010, just before he was cut from the World Cup roster, and Gordon has yet to make his national team debut.
Anderlecht midfielder Sacha Kljestan returns to the roster for the first time since February. Roma's Michael Bradley is back after recovering from a thigh injury, which had sidelined him since August, and scoring his first Serie A goal Sunday.
Jose Torres, who started in the 1-0 home win over Jamaica last month, was dropped because of an injury.
The roster:
Goalkeepers: Brad Guzan (Aston Villa, England), Tim Howard (Everton, England), Nick Rimando (Salt Lake).
Defenders: Carlos Bocanegra (Racing Santander, Spain), Geoff Cameron (Stoke, England), Edgar Castillo (Tijuana, Mexico), Steve Cherundolo (Hannover, Germany), Maurice Edu (Stoke, England), Clarence Goodson (Brondby, Denmark), Fabian Johnson (Hoffenheim, Germany), Michael Parkhurst (Nordsjaelland, Denmark).
Midfielders: Kyle Beckerman (Salt Lake), Michael Bradley (Roma, Italy), Joe Corona (Tijuana, Mexico), Jermaine Jones (Schalke, Germany), Sacha Kljestan (Anderlecht, Belgium), Brek Shea (Dallas), Danny Williams (Hoffenheim, Germany), Graham Zusi (Kansas City).
Forwards: Clint Dempsey (Tottenham, England), Landon Donovan (Los Angeles), Herculez Gomez (Santos Laguna, Mexico), Alan Gordon (San Jose), Eddie Johnson (Seattle).

Unique ancient spider attack preserved in amber
ScienceDaily (Oct. 8, 2012) ? Researchers have found what they say is the only fossil ever discovered of a spider attack on prey caught in its web -- a 100 million-year-old snapshot of an engagement frozen in time.
The extraordinarily rare fossils are in a piece of amber that preserved this event in remarkable detail, an action that took place in the Hukawng Valley of Myanmar in the Early Cretaceous between 97-110 million years ago, almost certainly with dinosaurs wandering nearby.
Aside from showing the first and only fossil evidence of a spider attacking prey in its web, the piece of amber also contains the body of a male spider in the same web. This provides the oldest evidence of social behavior in spiders, which still exists in some species but is fairly rare. Most spiders have solitary, often cannibalistic lives, and males will not hesitate to attack immature species in the same web.
"This juvenile spider was going to make a meal out of a tiny parasitic wasp, but never quite got to it," said George Poinar, Jr., a professor emeritus of zoology at Oregon State University and world expert on insects trapped in amber. He outlined the findings in a new publication in the journal Historical Biology.
"This was a male wasp that suddenly found itself trapped in a spider web," Poinar said. "This was the wasp's worst nightmare, and it never ended. The wasp was watching the spider just as it was about to be attacked, when tree resin flowed over and captured both of them."
Spiders are ancient invertebrates that researchers believe date back some 200 million years, but the oldest fossil evidence ever found of a spider web is only about 130 million years old. An actual attack such as this between a spider and its prey caught in the web has never before been documented as a fossil, the researchers said.
The tree resin that forms amber is renowned for its ability to flow over insects, small plants and other life forms, preserving them in near perfection before it later turns into a semi-precious stone. It often gives scientists a look into the biology of the distant past. This spider, which may have been waiting patiently for hours to capture some prey, was smothered in resin just a split second before its attack.
This type of wasp, Poinar said, belongs to a group that is known today to parasitize spider and insect eggs. In that context, the attack by the spider, an orb-weaver, might be considered payback.
Both the spider and the wasp belong to extinct genera and are described in the paper. At least 15 unbroken strands of spider silk run through the amber piece, and on some of these the wasp was ensnared.
Its large and probably terrified eyes now stare for eternity at its attacker, moving in for the kill.
