inside the classroom, but also help establish independent learning skills you
can use outside the classroom. My goal is to train you to function successfully
in Chinese culture using Mandarin as your primary language. This means that I
expect you to learn how to present yourself in a way that a Chinese person will

If you've been around awhile, or are of "a certain age," you may recall a few early attempts to couple cable's distribution infrastructure with text and graphical information. You know: stuff you might label today as "content." Starting in the early 1980s, a parade of initiatives flew across cable's radar, launched by some big names (then) in media and publishing, plus a few homespun start-ups.

EA DICE's Frostbite 3 engine, which powers the upcoming Battlefield 3 and the recently announced Star Wars games, will not support Wii U due to poor results from Frostbite 2 testing, engine director Johan Andersson tweeted.
EA yesterday announced a partnership with Disney to exclusively create games based on the Star Wars brand, and that they would be powered by Frostbite 3. When inquired if Frostbite 3 ever previously ran on Wii U, Andersson replied there was never such case.
"Frostbite 3 has never been running on Wii U," he said. "We did some tests with not too promising results with Frostbite 2 and chose to not go down that path."
EA in March said Battlefield 3 would skip the Wii U, as DICE creative director Lars Gustavsson saidit's best that the company sticks to doing what it knows well.
"I'd rather play it safe, deliver something really good and then look at the future and what could possibly be done than trying a bit too hard and [failing]," Gustavsson said at the time.
EA executive producer Patrick Bach at GDC provided similar thoughts, saying Wii U is not part of the team's current focus.

I really doubt they did much of a real test of FB2. As if it can run on the other 2 boxes, it could run on the wii u. They likely just didn't want to do the necessary work you have to do when porting something to a different platform.
Posted 08 May 2013 - 07:28
Keep telling yourself that. Meanwhile, the rest of us are starting to notice a trend...

The CPU however is weaker, and Frostbite use CPU quite heavily.

GSP comes to mind.Originally Posted by Palma Wrestler
Ya and the thing is Sakurai rarely comes in at 100%
but his only two loses at WW were to Shields and Hughes.. Hughes in his prime no less and Hughes is a colleigate All-american wrestler with a good enough sub game to atleast survive one fight against Sakurai and his caliber of grappling on top of that hes a master gameplanner, and Shields is a collegiate wrestler, 3rd place in ADCC, BJJ Black Belt, trained with the best ever since he got into MMA
Diego is a black belt in Greg Jackson JJ, hes a HS wrestler, hes powerful but so is Sakurai, and after you get outstruck by Koscheck.. you dont wanna try and strike with Sakurai. So I can see why people are unanimously picking Sakurai to win.

You're deusional, Gomi came out and immediately took Diaz down. Passed guard to sidemount, had Diaz' back, had north and south, landed gnp. The fight stood back up, Gomi dropped Diaz with a huge punch, landed more gnp, passed to side mount againa nd had Diaz back AGIAN. The fight stood back up and Gomi was gassed. He was still landing on Diaz and Diaz was landing on him. Gomi was just dominant the first 4:15 seconds of the fight, Diaz was dominant the last 45 seconds so Gomi still wins the first round due to the takedown, gnp, passing of the guard to sidemount, north & south, getting Diaz back, the knockdown punch and the gnp again. Diaz landed punches but no takedowns, no knockdowns, etc. Clearly round 1 goes to Gomi. I can't see how anyone can honestly and nuetrally score that round any other way.Originally Posted by CHUCKtheCHAMP
Here is the link to the fight, please rewatch it and see if your opinion still remains and explain why Diaz wins round 1 and mopped Gomi as you said.
Round 2 Gomi is still gassed, Diaz comes out and is throwing but Gomi is blocking well, they are both trowing again, Gomis is still gassed, Diaz starts to land short hooks and jabs then comes in and eats a slicing left hook that busts Diaz cheek apart nastily. Ref pasues the fight to get Diaz checked out, fight continues, Gomi is gassed but again, is still landing punches as is Diaz, ref stops it again and then immediately restarts, gomi shoots in, gets the takedown and then gets Gogo'ed.
In round 2, Gomi is already really gassed, but watch the punches Diaz is throwing, not that many are landing but they ALL look like they are becasue even the punches Gomi blocks still move him and his head is bouncing around like a boble head doll, not because all of Diaz' punches are landing but because Gomi is gassed and when he blocks a punch or a high kick at that point, ot moves his entire body and his hed because it was all jello at that point.
Up until the sub took place, UFC rules or PRIDE rules Gomi was ahead in the fight. UFC=10 point must system and Gomi dominanted roudn 1 and round 2 was very even up until the sub. PRIDE rules = damage and performance, Gomi dominated 4:15 of round 1 and roudn 2 was even, Diaz ends up with 8 stitches under each eye and one of the nastiest gashes and mouses I've seen in sometime.
Diaz post fight interview - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yKaPiOde7-Q
He will lift the sunglasses and reveal "The Eye".
Gomi's post fight interview - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a9PqaSw1fqc
Definately a phenomenal fight but if anyone dominated it was clearly Gomi.
And I never saw Diaz as a great WW (certainly good but not great), he is a great LW because of his size and length, it will cause problems for LW's, jabs are very effective.
EDIT: To add, I know the term "dominant" can be conceived a number of ways and with the shifty rules being the point system it is difficult to deliberate what warrants an awarded round or decision sometimes.
Diaz did give up his back purposely in the fight the second time but the side mount was earned by Gomi, as was the north & south as that was a result of a failed Kimura. Diaz went for a sub, does he get points for that if it was a failed attmept? He then juped & rolled into an armbar attempt that failed and it left him in north & south position and Gomi succeeded in landing 2-3 punches to the face while in north & south.
To me Gomi came out of that exchange getting the better of Diaz as he shrugged off 2 sub attempts, earning his north & south positioning and landed punches while his opponent was in a vulnerable posision.

In a perfect world everyone would see things my way... Seriously though, I am open to opinion and am just trying to hear where people are coming from (In detail) as to how they think Diaz was dominanting the fight because I am having difficulties seing this.

NEW HARTFORD, Iowa - Butler County emergency management officials said that the city-wide evacuation of New Hartford will stay in place through the night.
The mayor said about a quarter of the small Butler County town was under water.
More than 7 inches of rain has fallen in the Beaver Creek water basin in the past few days, causing the creek to rise to near historic levels. The creek crested at 15.15' Tuesday morning, just short of the 15.7' record set in June of 2008.
Authorities believe water seeped into as many as 30 homes and businesses, but they'll know more in the morning when they can assess the damage.
Stacie and Reece Ragsdale left town when emergency officials gave word of the evacuation. Stacie said when she came back after work to see that things didn't look as bad as she expected. The couple had a few inches of water in the garage and some in the basement. They didn't waste any time getting to work.
It's a sight many in town are getting used to. "Normal New Hartford flood, you would say," Ragsdale said.
Firefighters know this fight all too well. They said this is the third time Beaver Creek has flooded the area in the past few weeks.
"Of course we set up probably 9,000 sand bags," said New Harford Fire Chief Brad Schipper. "We just had the flood in May and we hadn't had them all picked up yet. So we just added to those and it kind of worked out."
The city built up the berm around the city to protect everything after the 2008 flood. Mayor John Anderson said the berm is working, but the water comes flowing in where that final piece of the berm has not been raised.
"It's got to be disheartening for a lot of people just to pick everything up every three weeks and go through this," said Mayor Anderson. "But we're hoping that we can get some help and move forward and get some of these problems so they don't occur."
"It gets frustrating because you know what you need to do, but if the funding isn't there, you can't do it," said Chief Schipper.
They're looking towards making changes in the future, but for now the city will keep battling flood waters.
"From my perspective, we've won three times," said Mayor Anderson. "Even though it doesn't look like it, I think we're winning."
Emergency management officials are asking people not to drive through the city to do any sightseeing or looking around until everything gets cleaned up. They expect to allow residents to come home to stay, sometime Wednesday morning.
The Red Cross opened a shelter in Shell Rock to handle those evacuated from the flash flooding in New Hartford. But so far, only a handful of the 560 people in New Hartford have sought shelter assistance.
Red Cross workers said this isn't surprising. In similar situations, people tend to find a place to stay with friends or relatives closer to their properties in jeopardy.
Shell Rock is located about 15-20 miles from New Hartford. The shelter has capacity for more than 400 people and plenty of cots and food, if needed.

FORT WALTON BEACH — Retired Air Force Col. Joe Stanley, a former commander of Eglin Air Force Base, died Thursday at the age of 104.
Stanley was a long-time resident of Westwood Retirement Resort. He moved there in 1994 with his wife, Betty, who died in 2003 on her 100th birthday.
"We just loved him, and we're going to miss him," said Tom Rice, who owns the Magnolia Grill restaurant and is a staunch supporter of veterans.
Rice drove Stanley to various military events.
"I would fax over an invitation because his hearing was pretty bad on the phone," Rice said. "I would get a reply back, 'The colonel doesn't have much on his schedule on Saturday and he would be delighted to attend,' and we'd go pick him up."
Their last road trip was to Pensacola for a ceremony honoring World War II veterans.
"I had the pleasure of having him up in the front seat of the van, just listening to him all the way over," Rice said. "His memory of how the area had been back in 1955, '54, '53 was astounding."
Born Jan. 28, 1908, Stanley grew up in Memphis, Tenn., and joined the Army Air Corps in 1935. During World War II, he commanded a squadron of B-17s. He was Eglin's commander in the 1950s.
Rice said he always admired Stanley's humility and his tendency to give credit to those around him.
"He had to have been quite a magnificent (base) commander," he added.
In January, Stanley told the Daily News that marrying Betty was the smartest move he'd ever made.
"She was one of those people who saw the joy and mystery of life," he said. "She was the type who could see the romance in something."
Together, they traveled the world during Stanley's military career. They lived in Egypt, Berlin, Paris Vienna and elsewhere.
A year ago, Stanley spoke to the Fort Walton Beach Kiwanis Club, warning members that "old age is not for sissies!"
Rice said Stanley most recently came to the Magnolia Grill last year for his 103rd birthday, and he climbed the stairs with little help.
"We have a wall here in the restaurant with some of our favorite pictures," Rice said. "One of the photos is of Joe Stanley in a parade car with the former (Fort Walton Beach) Mayor Tom Brooks."
As Stanley walked to the restroom, he noticed the photo and was surprised to see himself.
"He signed it for me, so that's one of our precious things," Rice said. "We'll keep a photo of Joe down here."

Biospecimen Retention: Samples With DNA
The purpose of this study is to understand the genetic causes of congenital diaphragmatic disorders (CDD), namely congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH), eventration and hiatal hernia.
Specifically, the investigators plan to:
- Ascertain informative families and sporadic cases with congenital diaphragmatic disorders and obtain appropriate phenotypic data and genetic material (peripheral blood and/or diaphragm tissue sample).
- Localize the gene(s) for CDD to specific chromosomal segments using linkage analysis, and determine the role of somatic mutations in CDD.
- Isolate and characterize genes involved in the pathogenesis of CDD.
- Develop molecular markers that will facilitate accurate diagnosis (including prenatal diagnosis) and permit correlation of phenotypic variation with specific mutations.
- Compare RNA-sequencing from tissue samples of children without CDH to those children with CDH.

Primary Outcome Measures:
- Genes implicated in CDD can be identified by linkage analysis [ Time Frame: 5 years ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]Using the Utah Population Database, genes implicated in CDD can be identified by linkage analysis
Secondary Outcome Measures:
- Develop molecular markers that will facilitate accurate diagnosis of CDD and CDH. [ Time Frame: 5 years ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]Develop molecular markers that will facilitate accurate diagnosis (including prenatal diagnosis) and permit correlation of phenotypic variation with specific mutations by localizing the gene(s) for CDH to specific chromosomal segments using linkage analysis in familial cases. In sporadic cases, characterize the role of somatic mutations in CDDs by using a candidate gene approach, and comparative genomic hybridization (CGH) arrays.

The clear linear building structure forms a pleasant contrast to the heterogeneous buildings of the neighbourhood. However, the differentiated outline integrates the new buildings into the small-structured context. All flats open up towards the gardens in the west with room-high glazings, merging internal and external spaces.

Here are answers to frequently asked questions about UNC Kenan-Flagler's MBA Program, as well as pointers to other sources of information about:
Q: Is UNC Kenan-Flagler a general management program? Are concentrations offered?
A: The program is a general management program. All students will graduate with a common mastery of the core business subjects. But we also offer optional concentrations and focus areas. Starting the second half of the first year, student begin to take elective courses in their area of concentration (if they have one). Approximately 75% of our students declare some type of concentration.
Q: I am interested in transferring from another MBA program. Is it possible to get credit toward my MBA at UNC?
A: We do not accept transfer credit into the full-time MBA program.
Q: Is it possible to pursue a dual degree program along with the MBA?
A: Yes, we have dual degree programs arranged with six of UNC's other graduate schools as well as with two programs at Duke University.
Q: What is the typical student profile at UNC Kenan-Flagler?
A: We have a wide variety of backgrounds among our students; there really is not a typical student at UNC Kenan-Flagler. Our class profile from the most recent class provides a snapshot of our student body as a whole.
Q: I'm interested in getting an MBA, but I don't know whether I'm competitive for UNC Kenan-Flagler's full-time MBA program. May I schedule an appointment with an admissions director to discuss my credentials?
A: During the core admissions season from September through May, the directors have interviews to evaluate applicants. In the summer, between June and August, contact our office to schedule a brief informational session with one of our admissions directors.
Q: My spouse/partner and I both are applying and plan to enroll together. Will you evaluate us as a package deal?
A: We evaluate each individual based on his/her credentials. No attempt is made to send the same decision to both spouses/partners. Couples looking at UNC Kenan-Flagler should not hesitate to let the Admission Office know if there is a mutual interest in UNC Kenan-Flagler. The School will be happy to provide insights from partners who have gone through the program together.
Q: I plan to reapply this year. Do I have to start a new online application with new essays and new recommendations?
A: Yes, you will need to start a new application and upload new essays, recommendations, resume and work history. Your transcripts and test scores will roll over to the new application. Please be sure to use the same login information as you used for the previous application year.
Q: How does the Admissions Office evaluate applicants who apply via the Consortium for Graduate Study in Management?
A: For more information on the Consortium application process, please see the Consortium FAQ page.
Q: If I am admitted this year, may I defer my enrollment until next year?
A: Generally, we will not defer your enrollment unless there are medical or other emergency reasons.
Q: What are the decisions I could receive on the decision release date?
A: All applicants for a given deadline will receive one of three decisions on the decision release date: admit, waitlist or deny. The admission committee seeks to select the most competitive candidates from the applicant pool. Some applicants' packages rank them clearly in highest tier, and those applicants are admitted immediately. We have other candidates that are clearly not among the most competitive applicants, and those applicants are denied immediately. There is a band of applicants who are more competitive than most, but not as competitive as those in the highest tier. We designate these high potential candidates as "waitlist".
Q: How does the waitlist process work?
A: If you receive a waitlist decision, we believe you are high potential. We believe that candidates in this group could one day make the cut for admission, but we cannot be sure that they will. We review all waitlisted candidates with the applicants from the subsequent admissions round. If the subsequent rounds of applicants are considerably stronger or weaker, this could change how a waitlisted applicant compares to the highest tier of applicants. Also, if we yield fewer admitted applicants than we had forecasted, then we will need to admit more applicants in order to fill the class. Or, if the yield of admitted applicants is higher than expected, fewer additional people will be admitted. Because we review the previously waitlisted applicants each round, it is possible for an applicant to receive more than one "waitlist" decision. It's also possible that a previously waitlisted applicant could be denied or admitted in a subsequent round. It is not uncommon for a waitlisted applicant to be continued on the waiting list.
Q: If I get denied admission to UNC Kenan-Flagler, can I request feedback so I can strengthen my application for next year?
A: We are unable to provide individual feedback to denied applicants. However, our admissions director has compiled some general feedback for candidates who have been denied and are thinking about reapplying in a future year.
Back to Top
Q: Does UNC Kenan-Flagler accept the GRE score in place of the GMAT?
A: Yes, we accept the GRE in place of the GMAT.
Q: Does UNC Kenan-Flagler accept any English language tests in place of the TOEFL?
A: We also accept the IELTS and PTE.
Q: I sent my GMAT/TOEFL score last year. Do you still have my scores?
A: UNC Kenan-Flagler keeps a GMAT or TOEFL score for two years after the date on which it was sent. If your score was sent last year, and has not expired, you do not need to re-submit it this year. GMAT and GRE scores expire after 5 years.
Q: I submitted my application before I took the GMAT. I scored lower than I thought and now I want to retake the GMAT. How can I make sure that you will only consider my application when I get my new scores?
A: Contact the MBA Admissions Office as soon as possible and notify us that you are retaking the GMAT. If necessary, your application may be moved to a later application cycle.
Q: Is work experience required for admission to the full-time MBA program?
A. We do not have minimum work experience requirements for applicants. However, most accepted students have at least two years of full-time, post-undergraduate professional experience. The Admissions Committee takes internships and cooperative education assignments into account, but those experiences are usually considered supplementary. To see the average of our current class, please visit the class profile page.
Q: Will my internships during college, or other types of short-term work, be considered as part of my work experience?
A: Only full-time, permanent, post-undergraduate positions count towards your work experience. Applicants' initiative in landing internships and the experiences gained in these assignments are certainly considered when we evaluate your overall package. While we are aware that many international applicants work full time while attending university, we prefer that they also present a minimum of two years of work experience after completing the first degree.
Q: If I have less than two years of full-time work experience, will my application be considered?
A: We review every application we receive, regardless of the amount of work experience. But applicants with less than two years of experience are not likely to be competitive in comparison to other candidates at UNC Kenan-Flagler.
Q: I worked full-time before I received my college degree. Will you consider that work experience?
A: Your full-time work before you earned a bachelor's degree can be considered. The quality of work experience is as significant as the quantity. The Admissions Committee will evaluate the degree and progression of your responsibility, supervisory roles and the managerial promise of that work.
Q: When will I be able to schedule my interview?
A: We are in the process of updating our MBA admissions interview policy. Please check back for more details.
Q: How can I arrange an interview?
Q: When will I receive an interview invitation?
Q: Is an interview required?
Q: How much weight does the interview carry?
A: The interview is an opportunity for you to learn more about UNC Kenan-Flagler, and it gives the Admission Committee a chance to hear from you in person. Admission decisions at UNC Kenan-Flagler are not based on a strict formula. The interview, the GMAT, academic accomplishments, work experience, recommendations and application essays all count-it's the combination of these elements that help Admissions get acquainted with you and better evaluate your application.
Q: How long does an interview last?
A: Interviews are usually 30 minutes. We would like to spend even more time, but the heavy demand for interviews limits the amount of time we can spend with each person. Allow at least 45 minutes in case your interview runs a little longer.
Q: What are interviews like at UNC Kenan-Flagler?
A: Your interview will be conducted by a member of the admissions committee. Interviewer bios are available on our Web site. Your interviewer will not have read or reviewed your admissions application, but will have a copy of your resume. Each interviewer's interviewing style is different, but all of our interviewers aim to create a positive and engaging interview conversation. Dress for interviews is business professional.
Q: If I am coming to campus for an interview, can I visit a class or meet with current students?
A: Absolutely. When you are invited to interview, you will also be given the opportunity to select a class visit, lunch with current students and a tour of the business school. We hope you are able to take advantage of these other visit components in order to get a feel of our school's special culture and environment. You also may want to reach out on your own to one of our current students. Our MBA Ambassadors have a Web page specifically for prospective students.
Q: Can I visit campus even if I don't want to interview yet?
A: We always welcome applicants to visit our campus. During this visit, you can choose to visit a class, have lunch with current students and tour the business school facility. Feel free to schedule a campus visit by logging into your application and selecting the "Interviews and Campus Visit" tab.
Q: Do UNC Kenan-Flagler students secure internships successfully between their first and second years?
A: Each year, nearly 100% of our first-year students secure meaningful work experiences over the summer.
Q: How many career management people are there to help me with my job search?
A: Career management staff supporting the MBA job search with individual counseling include five full-time counselors with assigned areas of responsibility for specific functional areas of career focus. In addition, four other members of the Career Management staff provide individual attention and counseling - particularly for those whose career goals require independent job search support. In addition, 38 second-year students are selected and trained by the Career Management Center as Peer Counselors. The Peer Counselors conduct at least one mock interview and resume critique with every first-year student. They also provide career counseling support.
Q: How many recruiters come to UNC Kenan-Flagler?
A: More than 200 recruiting companies visit campus each year.
Q: What is the estimated tuition and required fees for the academic year?
A: See the detailed breakdown of estimated tuition and fees for more information.
Q: How can I qualify for North Carolina Residency for tuition purposes?
A: Residency for tuition purposes is determined on a case-by-case basis. For details about residency, visit UNC's Residence Status for Tuition Purposes.
Q: How do I apply for school fellowships? What are the selection criteria?
A: Candidates who submit UNC Kenan-Flagler applications by the third deadline will be considered automatically for fellowships. Selection criteria include exceptional academic performance, progressive work experience, leadership and potential for success in business careers. Past recipients have demonstrated superior performance in all of these areas.
Q: May I apply for a graduate assistantship or research assistantship?
A: The School does not offer graduate or research assistantships to MBA students. The MBA Program workload, especially in the first year, precludes employment.
Q: Are Consortium applicants considered for all fellowships offered?
A: Yes. All applicants who complete an application for admission by the January deadline will be considered for one of the merit-based fellowships we offer. Applicants applying via the Consortium will also be considered for the Consortium Fellowship in addition to all the other fellowships we offer at UNC Kenan-Flagler. For more information on the Consortium application process, please see the Consortium FAQ page.
Q: Can MBA students live in UNC dorms or apartments on campus?
A: Almost all the MBA students at UNC Kenan-Flagler live off campus in apartments, condominiums or houses. MBA students can apply to live in campus dormitories and in a campus apartment complex, Baity Hill and Mason Farm Communities, for students with families. The waiting list for these apartments is long, however, and you should have a back-up plan in case a suitable opening does not become available to you through campus housing.
Q: How much does the typical MBA student spend for rent and utilities?
A: The average monthly rent for an unfurnished two-bedroom, two-bathroom apartment is US $750, according to the Chapel Hill Chamber of Commerce. Utilities usually cost about US $100 to US $150 a month. Costs vary depending on the size of the apartment and location. For guides to apartments, check: www.apartmentguide.com, www.apartments.com, www.apartmentlist.com/nc/chapel-hill, or www.zillow.com/chapel-hill-nc/rent.
Q: Do I need a car?
A: Owning a car is not essential for getting to your classes. The bus system is quite efficient and provides transportation service to many apartment complexes in the area. You may find, however, that having access to a car will increase your mobility around town. Note: International students should keep in mind that car ownership entails the purchase, maintenance and upkeep, mandatory insurance and registration. You must have a Social Security number to obtain financing if you purchase a car.
Q: How much does a campus parking pass cost and can I get one?
A: A student parking permit for the 2012-2013 academic year for UNC Kenan-Flagler's Business School deck is US $414.75. We ask students to form carpools, and we assign parking passes to each carpool of students. Students in a carpool share the cost of the parking pass and most carpools will include between 2-4 members.

When our first son was born I remember debating whether or not to put bumpers on his crib. I liked the way they matched the sheets. And the displays in the store always looked so nice. But then I started to read stuff about the suffocation dangers of bumpers. I found mixed information, and our pediatrician didn't have a strong opinion. So I got suckered into buying the bumpers. I stopped using them, however, as soon as I realized they obstructed my view of the baby.
Since then, the data has become much more clear. And now The Consumer Product Safety Commission is taking a closer look at bumpers and other sleep products. From the NYT:
Three years ago, Dr. Bradley Thach, a professor of pediatrics at Washington University in St. Louis, published findings that had the potential to upend nurseries across the nation, and perhaps save some lives too.
Dr. Bradley Thach's findings about the dangers of crib bumpers are now getting a second look by the Consumer Products Safety Commission.
In reviewing data from the Consumer Products Safety Commission, Dr. Thach concluded that crib bumpers — the padding wrapped around the inside of a crib that often matches the bedding—were killing babies. In a 10-year period beginning in 1995, he found 27 suffocation deaths involving bumper pads, and he theorized that many more might have occurred because of inconsistencies in the data.
"Because bumpers can cause death, we conclude that they should not be used," he warned.
The Consumer Products Safety Commission initially ignored the findings. Last summer, it reached the same conclusion as a trade group representing product manufacturers, which asserted that other factors, like a crib crowded with pillows or babies sleeping on their stomachs, might have been a factor in those deaths, rather than the bumpers. As a result, most parents remained unaware of the debate over the safety of crib bumpers.
Now, prompted by consumer advocates and news reports highlighting potential dangers, the commission has reversed itself and decided to take a deeper look at crib bumpers as part of a broader regulatory crackdown on the hazards of an extensive line of baby sleep products that have been blamed for more injuries and deaths…

Posthumous Stela with Amunhotep I and Ahmose-Nofretary
Occasionally an Egyptian artist rendered personalities from the distant past in an updated style. This stela shows the early Dynasty 18 king Amunhotep I (circa 1514–1493 B.C.) and his mother, Ahmose-Nofretary, making an offering to Osiris, god of the dead, on behalf of a man named Nebamun. Despite the presence of Amunhotep I, the work does not date to his reign. The slanted, almond-shaped eyes, short upturned noses, and sharply modeled outlines of the figures all characterize art from the time of Amunhotep III. By commissioning this stela, Nebamun, whose image is now broken away, was calling on two long-dead members of the royal house to help him gain immortality.
- Medium: Limestone
- Possible Place Made: Thebes, Egypt
- Dates: ca. 1390-1353 B.C.E.

The Honda Civic is the car that proved that small cars can be good to drive, appeal to the masses, and not be entirely soulless. Honda's ninth-generation Civic debuts for the 2012 model year, but unless you look closely, you might not notice. Both inside and out, the Civic retains signature cues from the previous car, with a single-arc profile and a two-tier dashboard. For the sedan, there are few changes to report under the hood, either, as the 1.8-liter four-cylinder and five-speed automatic carry over. The sporty Si does get a new engine -- a 201-hp, 2.4-liter four-cylinder -- and eco-warriors now have the choice of the HF sedan (41 mpg highway) or the Hybrid (44 mpg combined). The Civic uses a multilink rear suspension that is more planted and comfortable than the torsion-beam arrangements used by its competitors from Chevrolet, Hyundai, and Toyota, making it one of the better-driving small cars. Inside, however, the Civic has lost some ground to its competitors, with plastics that are not very appealing and a navigation system with fiddly buttons. Still, the cabin feels spacious; the engineers from Honda managed to carve an additional 3.7 cubic feet of interior volume from an exterior that's unchanged in size. A 60/40-split rear seat means that even coupe models can carry large items. The Civic used to stand apart from its competitors, but that's no longer the case. However, we can't discount the Civic's competent road manners, reliability, and stellar resale value.

Cabinet, One of Pair
Chinese domestic furniture designed for the private quarters of an upper-class home is often characterized by the elegant simplicity of its design and the beauty that comes from the natural woods. These two massive Cabinets for clothing and household goods have interior shelves and are surmounted by so-called hat cupboards. They are constructed principally of Chinese camphorwood, a fragrant wood that helped repel insects. The mortise and tenon joinery-typically fine Chinese furniture is assembled without the use of nails is visible at the corners where the ends of the through-tenons appear on the sides of the cabinets. The austere form of the cabinets is set off by a band of low-relief design carved along the bottom aprons of the Cabinets.

After months of "not dead yet" declarations, the streaming-TV startup files for Chapter 11 reorganization, the clearest sign that a Supreme Court ruling set it on a road to nowhere.
An attorney for the defunct streaming-TV service calls the results disappointing. The company had expected to bring in anywhere from $4 million to $31.2 million.
The US Copyright Office says the online-TV startup doesn't qualify -- yet -- for a content license that would let it restart streaming.
A small executive team will be the only ones remaining at the embattled TV-streaming startup, after a Supreme Court ban on its service scared off potential investors.
A judge grants broadcasters' request for a temporary injunction against the embattled video streaming service, which has sought to reclassify itself as a cable provider.
The company is releasing an app for Android that lets users watch and record over-the-air broadcast television.
After a Supreme Court ruling, the streaming TV service changed its licensing model in an attempt to stay in business.
In this edition of Ask Maggie, CNET's Marguerite Reardon explains why the Supreme Court's Aereo decision was bad for those who've ditched traditional TV service.
Streaming-TV service Aereo switches legal tactics after losing in the Supreme Court. Meanwhile, a senator asks the FTC to investigate Facebook over its controversial research.
The streaming-TV startup's new legal tack embraces the ruling against it, arguing that the decision means Aereo deserves the same copyright license cable companies get.

On PCs running Internet Explorer, which is 78.5% of our viewers, when loading a page, the 'N' logo appears with a blue background, then it disappears.
I understand the reason is because it's a .png...which Explorer doesn't support for whatever reason, but there is a 'hack' in place so that 78.5% of our viewers don't get a blue box behind the 'N' the entire time they're viewing our site.
Is there a reason you have to use a .png when a transparent .gif is supported in every browser? It could also be possible to have the logo blend in with the background by having the same background in the logo graphic itself and saved as a .jpg or .gif.
If we used a .gif we wouldn't have the blue disappearing background and no 'hack' would be required*.
* (The downside of using a transparent .gif....I don't believe we could have the 4 pixel tall red reflection at the bottom. Gif's don't support gradient alpha channels, it's invisible or it isn't.)
Or is there a another reason requiring a .png with disappearing blue background?

For years, the term "data mining" has been all too familiar to Web developers and, more recently, to just about everyone using Google or Facebook. While marketers love to remind us that information is power, this maxim becomes particularly poignant if you own a C6. In this scenario, information can help you make power—as well as improve fuel economy, track down problems, measure your car's performance, and even entertain you.
We all know that the modern automobile stores an incredible amount of information in its computer. But until recently, retrieving this information required expensive specialized tools or the awkward use of a laptop while trying to drive.
Things have changed, though, and for the better, thanks to the DashBoss. DashBoss is a portable, wireless performance monitor and scanner system for your '05-up Corvette. It's perfect for the performance enthusiast who demands far more information than is supplied by the Corvette's stock gauges, but who isn't willing to clutter up the interior with aftermarket gauges or permanently mounted monitors.
DashBoss connects wirelessly to your Apple iGadget, be it an iPhone, iPad, or iPod Touch via Bluetooth. The manufacturer likes to call it a "brain scan for your vehicle," which is an apt description given that the device allows you to measure your car's performance, log any data parameters you desire, monitor vehicle functions in real-time, and check and clear diagnostic trouble codes.
While there are plenty of products that allow you to data log and deal with DTCs, one area in which DashBoss really shines is in performance testing. Here, too, there are a number of choices in the marketplace, but no others that we're aware of let you measure 0-60, quarter-mile, and 60-0 braking performance with weather-corrected results. Say you baseline your car before making a mod like an exhaust system. Maybe the install took a little longer than you planned, and the weather cooled dramatically. Whereas with other products you'd be left guessing if the performance improvement was a result of your equipment change or the air density and temperature, DashBoss removes the guesswork. Pretty darned useful in our book.
Another huge advantage is the ability to integrate data from up to two external sensors. For instance, say you've added a wide-band O2 sensor to help tune your car. With DashBoss, you can gather and display this information real-time and log it with the rest of your data. DashBoss has made this painless, too, as it incorporates a pigtail on the unit to allow easy connection.
Further, it features pre-configured dialogs for various sensors that measure pressure, voltage, position, wide-band O2, low-temperature (<300 degrees C, like post-turbo or -supercharger, intake-air temperature, or oil temperature), and high-temperature (>300 degrees C, like exhaust gas) sensors. The only requirement for the sensor is that it provides a signal between 0 and 5 volts. DashBoss then allows you to easily configure what the input "means" in the app.
DashBoss is the first, and currently the only, Apple-certified product of its type. According to DashBoss co-founder Ken Mosher, "The Apple iOS products were just getting off the ground, and we took the 'path not yet traveled' and decided to go through the Apple certification process to do a full Bluetooth solution. This provided security, a solid connection, and the ability to auto connect—just like headphones or your in-car hands free system—without having to fiddle with configuring and connecting the device all the time.
"In addition, we designed and built our hardware. The firmware is fully customizable by us; we do not have the constraints of using off-the-shelf OBD chipsets like other products. The Bluetooth is also much more user friendly and less finicky than wi-fi solutions."
DashBoss consists of just one key component: a sleek module that plugs into your Corvette's ALDL port beneath the dash. Once connected, it can easily be stowed behind a trim panel or any other convenient spot. If you choose to leave it in your car, it will to go into a deep "sleep" when not in use, preserving the battery. It doesn't need to be unplugged unless the vehicle sits for many weeks at a time without being started or attached to a battery tender.
It's also easily transferable and will work with a wide range of vehicles. This means you could use it to monitor your tow vehicle and then plug it into your Corvette at the track. A couple taps in the app, and you're ready for a day of high performance.

Paris 2012: the Vauxhall Adam
Luton's very own DS3 competitor wades in at the Paris Motor Show. And we rather like it…
Posted: 27 Sep 2012
It's new territory for Vauxhall, but on first impressions we rather like it. The Adam, a customisable three-door small car in the mould of the Citroen DS3, was properly unveiled last night. It goes on sale early next year, from a reasonable £11,255.
A riot of curves and lumps, the sheet metal is busy, and makes merry with contrasting roof colours and splashes of chrome. But on the pugnacious proportions, it stops short of going OTT. Vauxhall says there are millions of trim and colour combinations. You can even have four-wheel spokes in black and the fifth in body colour...
Main news inside is a new connected entertainment. It's just a dumb radio until you connect your Android or iOS gadget. Then it'll run your phonebook, playlists and even (if you're stopped, dummy) videos. Better yet, you can download apps to the device that then run in the car: navigation, internet radio, podcasts and more.
The advantages of having this stuff embedded in the device rather than the car are huge. For instance, you can set a destination on the car screen, and when you get near, just park and carry on walking using your phone screen. Also, you don't need to go anywhere near a car dealer to get updates and new apps.
The cabin itself is cheerily designed with decent quality materials and fancy illumination, including the option of a multi-LED 'starlight headliner', not unlike the one on a Rolls Phantom coupe. Many of the interior colour parts can be swapped out during the car's life, so if you choose a bold scheme you won't be giving yourself a lifetime headache, or killing the trade-in value later.
Design chief Mark Adams assures us the cabin and the sheet metal are unique (which isn't true of the Citroen DS3 f'rinstance). They won't be used on the next Corsa.
Engines are all-petrol: 1.2 and two 1.4s of 87 and 100bhp. Soon after, Vauxhall's new high-tech direct-injection 1.6 will come on stream, with an option of a double-clutch transmission. Self-parking is also on the list.
Never mind parking. We want to drive it, so stay tuned for our verdict in early November.
