"theBlu" Dives Into Times SquareWorld's First Social Digital Ocean App Now Available to Download, Explore and Share; Mission Blue, OceanElders, Oceanic Preservation Society, Scripps Institution of Oceanography and WildAid Are Inaugural Non-Profit Cause Collaborators (May 04, 2012)
NEW YORK, NY -- (Marketwire) -- 05/04/12 -- Wemo Media, the Venice, CA-based entertainment studio, today announced the launch of "theBlu," possibly the largest globally shared art and entertainment experience ever created. Inspired by the world's oceans, "theBlu" is a living and breathing digital art exhibit of ocean habitats and species, created by artists and developers from all over the world. This social exploring experience is currently available as a downloadable app for PC and Macintosh computers at theblu.com
"theBlu" embodies the following principles:
- Use the power of the Internet to connect geographically disparate people in a meaningful way
- Empower a global community of artists and developers to create an extraordinarily beautiful and high fidelity series of apps
- Support non-profit collaborators in their efforts to better understand and protect the world's oceans
theBlu: From Social Gaming to Social Responsibility
"theBlu" turns the Internet into a globally-connected 3D digital ocean wherein every species and habitat is an original work of art created by a worldwide community of artists, animators and developers, including Academy Award® winners Andy Jones and Kevin Mack, and students alike.
Exploring "theBlu" is as easy as browsing the web and includes information about species, exploration of geo-located habitats, in-ocean tagging of fish, the purchase of species to grow your collection and customize your experience, social activity streams, event and photo sharing, and ocean life swimming from user to user across the Internet, creating real-time social interaction.
At launch, "theBlu" will enable a connected social exploration across eight ocean habitats, including over one hundred life forms with new habitats and species released monthly, and fifteen "ambassador" species, sponsored by non-profit cause collaborators, to raise awareness and funds for ocean conservation. Currently a downloadable app for PC and Mac, "theBlu" will soon be available on phones, tablets and smart TVs.
Announcing Non-Profit Cause Collaborators
theBlu's inaugural non-profit cause collaborators include: Mission Blue, OceanElders, Oceanic Preservation Society, Scripps Institution of Oceanography and WildAid.
How it works: Participating non-profit collaborators sponsor "ambassador" species or habitats in "theBlu" and users of "theBlu" are offered the opportunity to purchase these "ambassador" species or habitats for their virtual ocean environment. Twenty-five percent (25%) of the purchase price of these virtual species or habitats goes directly to the non-profit collaborators to fund projects that support their work in the real ocean environment. The program is also designed to increase awareness and reach for collaborating organizations and their conservation efforts. Users of "theBlu" have the opportunity to effect real change for the world ocean.
Non-Profit Cause Collaborator Quotes
"Scripps Institution of Oceanography is one of the oldest, largest, and most important centers for ocean science research, education and public service in the world, and we are proud to collaborate with the forward-thinking creators of theBlu," said Dr. Tony Haymet, director of Scripps Institution of Oceanography, a part of UC San Diego. "This ocean-inspired project creates the opportunity to educate people around the world, raising the visibility of the ocean and its inhabitants."
"The ocean needs one voice. One very loud voice," said Gigi Brisson, founder of OceanElders. "Our collaboration with 'theBlu' will help us drive cause effectiveness and unity; with a greater chance for lasting impact."
"The oceans deserve our respect and care, but you have to know something before you can care about it. 'theBlu' is an extraordinary way to enjoy the oceans and learn about all the individual species that interdependently form our life support system and make the oceans so vital to our individual well-being and our planet as a whole," said Sylvia Earle, founder and chair, Mission Blue.
"I think theBlu is an exceptional way for people all over the world to not only see the underwater world but actually create it," said Louie Psihoyos, executive director, Oceanic Preservation Society. "It's a beautiful, novel concept and I think the social media aspect is really exciting because it's going to connect people with the oceans that get so little attention."
"With one-third of open-ocean shark species currently threatened with extinction, it has become imperative that we reverse this trend by reducing demand for products derived from these magnificent creatures," said Peter Knights, executive director, WildAid. "'theBlu' effectively bridges the gap between virtual and real-world conservation and we are proud to partner with them on this important endeavor."
Wemo Media Quotes
"I am grateful and honored for the meaningful relationships we have established with our non-profit collaborators," said Neville Spiteri, co-founder of Wemo Media. "theBlu reflects the very special and powerful intersection of art, technology, and social change."
"The really interesting thing about theBlu is how it brings together the biology, the activism of conservation, the beauty and the artistic elements as well as the grassroots, participatory social media movement. I'm very excited about the possibilities ahead," said Joichi Ito, director of the MIT Media Lab and advisor to Wemo Media.

The Technology That Makes theBlu Possible
Today, in a separate announcement Wemo Media unveiled the technology platform and next-generation studio model that makes "theBlu" possible. Called the Planet Participation Platform, this next-generation system, built to harness the power of global creative talent, delivers the first collaboration and monetization platform purpose-built for independent content creators and developers.
theBlu Times Square Launch Event Details
On May 4th between 5:00pm and 11:00pm EDT, (22:00 GMT), "theBlu" will be displayed on the NASDAQ and Thomson Reuters video screens every 30 minutes for a special five-minute show.

This special event is co-produced with Times Square 2. www.timessquare2.com
"theBlu" is produced by Wemo Media, an entertainment studio based in Venice, California, co-founded by Neville Spiteri, a media creative executive formerly at EA, Square and Digital Domain, and Scott Yara, a successful repeat entrepreneur and president/co-founder of EMC|Greenplum. The team includes Andy Jones, Academy Award-winner for Avatar and on the board of advisors; Joichi Ito, director of MIT's Media Lab; and Sylvia Earle, Time Magazine's Hero of the Planet.

Bangladesh recovered from the early dismissal of Zunaed Siddique to crawl to 34-1 by lunch on the opening day of the first Test against New Zealand on Friday.
Opener Tamim Iqbal, dropped twice, was unbeaten on 18 and recalled Rajin Saleh was on 16 at the break, as they added 34 for the unbroken second-wicket stand after Bangladesh won the toss and elected to bat.
New Zealand struck early at the Divisional Stadium when paceman Iain O'Brien trapped opener Siddique leg-before wicket off the first ball of the second over.
It could have been 0-2 but Aaron Redmond dropped Iqbal off fast bowler Kyle Mills in the third over.
With not much for fast bowlers in the pitch, New Zealand skipper Daniel Vettori introduced Jeetan Patel in the 18th over.
The off-spinner turned one sharp on Iqbal whose defensive shot flew to forward short-leg but Redmond failed to hold a head-high catch.
With the pitch expected to take spin, the home team has included three left-arm spinners, Abdur Razzak, Mehrab Hossain and Shakib Al Hasan in their lineup along with off-spinning all-rounder Naeem Islam who is making his debut.
New Zealand also handed batsman Jesse Ryder his Test debut and included Patel to backup skipper and spinner Vettori.

Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha Character Creation and Discussion

Alright, to heck with fatigue. Here's a brief bio on two of the characters I have in store...agents for Scaglietti who are working with him and the Numbers. These are very brief, so expect more in-depth stuff later.
Theodore "Theo" Stoff
Alias: "Dragoon", "Theo-kun" (coined by Sein)
Age: 14.
Height: 164 cm.
Hair color: Metallic gray.
Eye color: Blood red.
Magic style: Belkan.
Home world: 2nd Administrated World- Belka.
Magic circle: Belkan Triangle.
Magic color: Gray.
Magic element: Primarily fire.
Device: Jongleur (German for "Jester")
Device appearance: Halberd.
Device form: Armed Device.
Rank: B+
Position/Rank in TSAB: Formerly First Lieutenant, turned traitor on the organization.
Affiliation: Formerly Time and Space Administration Bureau- now Dr. Jail Scaglietti, Enzo Scudera, the Numbers and the Letters.
Familiar: None.
Personality: Theo has a general get-it-done attitude about himself, which he shows often. He holds compassion for his allies, however, and, fitting the namesake of a knight (something that he proclaims himself to be), he strives to shield his compatriots from harm. He does find the demeanor of some that he works with to be nerve-tripping- an example is him putting up with remarks by Quattro every now and again. Sein has also taken something of a liking to him.
Notes: His reasons for defecting, as per most defectors, are unknown- sources state that he is only a follower of others who have joined the Doctor from the Bureau as well as a myriad of other locations, and is only an addition to his force, but this remains uncertain. Still further rumors have circulated that he once knew the Wolkenritter back when he was still in the corps.
His device, Jongleur, takes the form of a halberd. The Device is named so for its jokey nature, and has a remarkable amount of sentience for a weapon. It has some functions that bear a similarity to some that Strada has.
Sigourney Ballantine
Alias: "Mr. Eccentric", "Owl."
Age: 17.
Hair color: Midnight blue.
Eye color: Viridian.
Height: 171 cm.
Magic style: Mid-Childan.
Home world: 1st Administrated World- Mid-Childa. (Again, my own designation. If it's incorrect, do tell me.)
Magic symbol: Mid-Childan Circle.
Magic color: Ultramarine.
Magic element: Light.
Device: Gawain.
Device appearance: Assault rifle, futuristic in design.
Device form: Armed Device.
Rank: B+
Position/Rank in TSAB: Formerly Sergeant, turned traitor on the organization.
Affiliation: Formerly Time and Space Administration Bureau- now Dr. Jail Scaglietti, Enzo Scudera, the Numbers and the Letters.
Familiar: None.
Personality: Sigourney embodies the typical "silent gunman" persona. He rarely ever speaks above a mutter to some and is loyal to the cause of the Doctor and his associates. His constant mute attitude is described as being a "perfect choice" by the Doctor- for someone who is willing to do as they are ordered. It is also this demeanor of his that allows him to focus on his job and on how he uses his Device. He has been labeled as "Mr. Eccentric" by some of his allies due to the form his barrier jacket takes- a white and red suit complete with a top hat. When asked about it, he says that it's his "preference".
Notes: He has been given the moniker of "Owl" due to the factor of his enhanced vision, being able to see enemies far before they come into view. According to the words of some of the Numbers who have long-range zoom built into their systems, they say that he can rival, if not best their sight on the battlefield.
His Device, Gawain, takes the form of a Fabrique Nationale P90 assault rifle. From what little else is known about the Device, it apparently has the ability to change forms, the only known variant being a sort of miniature beam cannon, though this is uncertain.
I designed them to be enemy opposites or so to Teana and Elio...as said, the bios are brief, very. But feedback is appreciated.
Despite being opposites, these are more powerful, and serve different strategems in a team.
And Jail's getting a lot of allies recently. No wonder the Regional Guard got thrashed first and after that got so tied up that no supposrt could be given to Riot 6...

Although that'll mean that... someone who can unearth the original Instruments of Blau Gotten and master them would be able to utilize the most powerful aspects of Naaru or Quera magic?
Lyrical magic was like the foundation of the Imperiallum, incorporated into many combat and non-combat systems, making them more stable and thus stronger. It is even rumored to have been in Seiou-sama's secret Raumritter Sentokijin creation process, reducing the chance of rejection of the mechanized parts as well as dysfunction to 0%; The best modern Type-0 sentokijin technology could only reduce it to 5%.
The combining weapons of the Licht von Belka were made possible only with Lyrical magic, eliminating the need for the extra energy that had to be provided by mana laser for DaiStahlMut to stablize its parts prior to combination. Stahlpreios is a notable example, needing no external energy source for combination and having minimal shielding for its dangerous Tronium engine.
There was a lament that is recorded in one of the tales of the Libram of Devotion, that when interpreted in modern terms mean that if only the heresy had not occured, Seiou-sama would've been able to complete a stabilized gravity engine able to be mass-produced, eliminating the need for toxic Tronium fields.
Therefore, anyone who picks up the Blau Gotten set won't become more powerful overnight, as it is just a foundation. But as long as they can find the ways to apply the Lyrical magic, they will find that their systems would function better and come very much closer to its maximum potential.
That said, yes a skilled Cleric-knight would be able to do just that. Such is the mark of an Ancient Belka Grand Marshal...
However, the thing about Lyrical magic is that all its needs is a song. Lyrical magic could be produced from anything; it just affects its quality. Fate has a passive talent for writing moving mental songs of Lyrical magic without being concious of it, allowing her to push herself closer to superhuman limits before side effects start showing, but she is unable to transmit this power...
Until recently. This is a central point in my upcoming arcs.
One thing is needed before Lyrical magic songs can be projected in its purest form.
That's where Kha says,
"I understand now. Mere righteousness, mere courage, mere strength, is not enough. You need..."
What is the missing ingredient?!

Story Behind this Recipe
I previously posted a recipe using wonton skins, but this time I wanted to use gyoza skins and add chikuwa.
It's hard to get crispy yakisoba noodles in the US. I tried using Chinese noodles, but couldn't get them crispy enough. Then, I read on a blog about using gyoza skins instead and borrowed that idea. I really like how this recipe turned out.

The 6-foot-5, 315-pound Latu is up to 13 scholarship offers, and the Scarlet Knights are certainly standing out.
"The coaches are unbelievable," Latu said. "We talk on a weekly basis, and it's making me grow toward their program. Everything we talk about, it's family-based, and an opportunity to get better in life and football. It works out good. Those guys, they're really trying hard to get me."
It is not just coach Greg Schiano or offensive line coach Kyle Flood in touch with Latu.
"The whole staff is talking to me," Latu said. "That's a good thing. That's another thing that opens up my eyes. Usually, it's the head coach, or the offensive line coach, but I've got the wide receiver coach (P.J. Fleck) talking to me, the defensive backs coach (Jeff Hafley).
"It just makes me feel more comfortable if I go there because I'm already building a relationship with everybody, not just one coach."
Although Rutgers picked up verbal commitments from class of 2012 offensive line standouts Brandon Arcidiacono of Archbishop Wood High (Warminster, Pa.) and Chris Muller of Boyertown (Pa.) Area High, Latu remains a priority because of his eligibility clock, and the Scarlet Knights' need to revamp its offensive line.
Latu will leave COC in the spring and have two years to play two seasons, meaning if an incoming freshman red-shirts, he would be a red-shirt sophomore the season after Latu's eligibility expires.
Still, Latu acknowledged he is far from making a decision. His latest offer came from South Florida, which struck a chord because he is from St. Petersburg, Fla., which is across the bay from the USF campus.
That is also the only school he knows he will visit unofficially when he returns home during summer break Aug. 4-14. He is also eyeing a summer trip to Oklahoma, and if he can do it inexpensively, will visit other schools as well, but he has no leaders.
"Right now it's pretty even," Latu said. "If I can take some unofficial visits before my season starts, I can go in with the mindset of which universities are more of a fit for me than just being all over the place."
He sees the seriousness of his recruitment surfacing as programs begin to fill up with offensive line commitments.
"Now that more schools are finally talking business instead of talking, it's different from where I was a month ago," Latu said. "I really have to take these schools into consideration and see what the background is like on a football level, and the academics, and seeing which schools produce the most linemen to the next level. I have to do a lot of homework."

These rose leaves are just beautiful and you get a lot for the price. I have bought at least a dozen packs so far and will keep on getting more because I love them that much.
I really wish I had ordered this pen a long time ago instead of wasting my time on so many others that just do not work. This pen is perfect, and I will only use this one from now on.

I am so hooked on this Bazzill Kraft paper! I love using it for my card backgrounds. It coordinates so wonderfully with everything!

These alphas are wonderful. The dimension is perfect, the font is classy, and the adhesive is strong. Affordable, too!
I am so happy that I found these foam Thickers. They add such a nice amount of dimension to a layout. I really appreciate how they come with multiples of each letter in the pack. I will buy these again and again!
These add just the right amount of class to a layout!
Thickers are a must-have in any scrapper's stash!

As the world's electronic companies scramble to set the agenda for wearable devices, the vegetable juice company Kagome has gone one step farther — unveiling a wearable tomato machine.
The Tomatan is a backpack that can be loaded with six midsize tomatoes — enough, say the makers, to power runners through this weekend's Tokyo Marathon.
"Tomatoes have lots of nutrition that combats fatigue," Shigenori Suzuki of Kagome said Thursday.
The Tomatan looks like a small humanoid robot, with a tomato for a head, and sits snugly on the athlete's shoulders. Tugging a tiny lever in the foot moves the arms to catch a tomato from the dispensing chute. The arms then rotate the fruit over the runner's head and hold it in front of his mouth.
"We used about 100 tomatoes to complete this machine," said Nobumichi Tosa of Meiwa Denki, the company that devised the device and is known for its off-the-wall machines and musical instruments. "We focused mostly on its visual design."
Despite its 8-kg weight, Kagome's Suzuki said he will don the device for a 5-km fun run on Saturday.
"I will run by his side carrying my tools, just like an F1 mechanic," Tosa said.
In Sunday's full Tokyo Marathon, a runner from Kagome will participate with a lighter wearable tomato machine — the Petit-Tomatan — which weighs only about 3 kg, Suzuki said.

Together, they prayed at the Congregation's Byzantine style chapel. They also sung the Regina Coeli to honor Our Lady.
The Coptic pope reflected on this historical visit. Especially since a visit of this kind, had not taken place in 40 years.
Coptic Pope
"I am very happy to visit the Holy Father, Pope Francis. It's very important and it's considered a historical meeting between the two big Churches: The Egyptian Coptic Orthodox Church and the one, the Roman Catholic Church."
This marks his first visit to the Vatican and also his first official trip outside of Egypt, since he was elected last November.
In fact, the last time a Coptic pope visited the Vatican was back on May 10th 1973, when Pope Paul VI, met with his counterpart, Coptic Patriarch Shenouda III. Now, 40 years later, it's Pope Francis who welcomed Tawadros II.
Coptic Pope
"I found the Holy Father a very decent man full of grace, full of the Holy Spirit and full of joy and happiness. And this touched my heart."
To mark the visit, they all agreed that May 10th be recognized as a day of fraternity between Copts and Catholics. For now though, the date is unofficial.
It's a type of symbol to show that the meeting between Pope Francis and Tawadros II ended on a good note.
Coptic Pope
"We each decided to pray for one another everyday in our personal prayer."
So the meeting was described as much more than just a visit between both Church leaders. Rather it was described as a new chapter to strengthen the bonds of reconciliation and unity.

Staff at our March branch had a glove-ly surprise when world renowned former boxer Dave Boy Green popped in for a cuppa to help them celebrate the Queen's 90th birthday.
Local legend Dave, who lives in nearby Chatteris, was a very apt guest of honour at a tea party to celebrate Her Majesty's milestone due to his royal links - just a few years ago he was a visitor to Buckingham Palace to pick up an MBE awarded to him for services to charity.
Patriotic Dave, 63, said: "It was an honour to be at the branch tea party and chat with the extremely friendly and knowledgeable estate agency and building society team. They are a lovely group of people.
"I think it's fantastic 57 branches of The Nottingham held tea parties to celebrate Her Majesty's birthday – they are a company right at the heart of the community and this was just another example of that."
Estate agency manager Nicola Roberts added: "Dave is a huge hero to many around here and is extremely popular – as of course is Her Majesty. Twin that with the fact that he has an MBE and he was a perfect guest.
"A big thank you to him for coming along and to all of our customers who helped make the day a huge success."
Dave Boy Green enjoyed a boxing career spanning nearly 15 years, before retiring in 1981. In his time in the ring he was involved in top level WBC title fights, including taking on the might of Sugar Ray Leonard in 1980.

The moment you take off your shoes, the repulsive smell from your feet spreads everywhere. Foot odour is indeed embarrassing. It lingers on your socks and shoes and unless you wash your feet, the odour doesn't escape.
So why does your foot stink and how do you get over it? We explain you below:
What causes foot odour?
It's a fact that your feet is made up of about 250,000 sweat glands or precisely the eccrine glands that produce great deal of sweat which is basically salt and water and is odour free naturally. However, if your feet or the sweat is subjected to bacterial activity then bad smell is inevitable. Certain bacteria release odorous substances which mix with sweat to emit the bad smell.
The common circumstances that create favourable environment for bacterial growth in foot are:
- Wearing tight fitting or closed shoes block air circulation over your feet
- Wearing nylon and polyester socks block ventilation and increase sweating of your feet
- Lack of hygiene- not cleaning feet and soles every day, exchanging shoes and socks with others
Understanding foot odour
Several microbial species make up the flora of your foot. Among them Staphylococcus epidermidis and Bacillus subtilis occur most abundantly. They use salt and amino acids of your sweat as substrate and produce isovaleric acid, which is responsible for cheesy stinky smell from your foot. Another bacteria known as Brevibacterium linens emit gassy smell of sulphur and ammonia after its activity.
Thus, the characteristic and intensity of the smell differs from one individual to another and depends on the sole culprit i.e. the bacteria.
How to manage foot odour?
If you do not take care of the odour, it will increase to such an extent that a trail of bad smell will be left behind wherever you pass by. Thus, you need to manage foot odour with the solutions explained below:
Do not compromise on hygiene of your foot
- Make sure you wash your feet with soap and water every time after returning home.Pat dry them thereafter.
- Do not wear socks and shoes over dirty feet. Clean them and then wear
- Get some isopropyl alcohol from a local pharmacy. Dilute it with water or dab it on your soles and feet with cotton ball before going to bed
- Buy an antibacterial powder, dab it on your feet and then wear socks or shoes
Socks and shoes- how to choose?
- If you need to wear closed shoes then make sure they have in built breathing technology in them.
- Avoid wearing absolute synthetic socks. Opt for cotton and woollen varieties during winters
Pamper your feet
Apart from the following the aforementioned anti-food odour techniques, dedicate a little time to pamper your feet in order to manage the odour. Some wonderful home remedies for foot odour are:
- Add lemon juice and rock salt or sodium bicarbonate to warm water. Soak your feet for half an hour daily to control the smell
- Add deodorant or cologne or some essential oils of rosemary, lavender, etc to your bathing water. Dip your feet for some time, dry and then wear your shoes
- Visit parlour occasionally for foot spa and pedicure. Removing dead skin from feet also helps to control odour

The EU Electricity Laws
Edited by: Pierre Bernard, Aurore Vanhay, Valerie Bernard
The energy sector is going through an era of evolution that is profoundly impacting the sector's governance (i.e., unbundling) and the technology on which it relies (e.g. smart grids, to name just one example). In addition, and perhaps even more importantly, the sector is also undergoing modifications at its core, with Europe increasingly shifting away from fossil/nuclear fuels towards renewables and with storage, energy efficiency and new grid management techniques on the horizon. To ensure the developments in the sector are done in a stable and harmonious manner, the aforementioned changes must be implemented within a solid legislative framework. Legislators are struggling to keep up with the rapid pace of the progress made in the energy sector. The result is an abundance of new Directives, Regulations, Guidelines, Communications, Decisions and other legislative documents, making this edition of the EU Electricity Laws a tool that is more important than ever if one wishes to find their way through the multiple applicable laws.

UPDATE 2-Toronto stocks rise on bargain-hunting, OPEC
*Energy sector rallies after OPEC decision to cut output
*CIBC World Markets cuts TSX 2008 yearend target
*Transat slips after it reports third-quarter loss
(Adds details)
TORONTO, Sept 10 (Reuters) - The Toronto Stock Exchange's main index rose on Wednesday, led by strength in oil shares after a surprise decision by OPEC to cut production and by bargain-hunting after a near 4-percent selloff on Tuesday.
The heavyweight energy sector was up 2.2 percent following the decision by the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries to cut production by half a million barrels a day. Oil prices slipped, however, on slowing demand and as fears over Hurricane Ike receded.
Canadian Natural Resources (CNQ.TO: Quote) jumped 3 percent to C$76.62.
The resource-laden materials group was up 1.3 percent as investors snapped up stocks at bargain prices, despite softness in the price of bullion and as base metals prices fell. Barrick Gold (ABX.TO: Quote) climbed 4.7 percent to C$29.33.
"When you get an oversold situation like yesterday it's bound to rally shortly thereafter," said Lex Kerkovius, senior research analyst at McLean & Partners Wealth Management Ltd., in Calgary, Alberta. Continued...

It's not a regular occurrence that you find yourself in need of a replacement Disc Brake Caliper to repair your car or truck. Your Audi dealership isn't the only place to find genuine or original equipment quality replacement parts for your A6 Quattro. Anyone who operates a Audi knows that when it comes to repairing their automobile only the absolute best replacement parts will do. Obviously, you bought your A6 Quattro because you knew that you wanted best-in-class service and a trusted brand both impeccably combined into one vehicle.
If you can't stop your car or truck, then you are bound to get into an accident. Brand new Audi A6 Quattro disc brake calipers ensure a safe driving experience. Not only can this make stopping your car or truck easier, but you can give passengers a thrill while safely taking turns on canyon roads. Brake calipers use the pads to pinch both sides of the rotor. This is a more effective way to stop your Audi A6 Quattro than the use of wheel cylinders, as disc brake calipers are able to grip both sides of the rotor; transferring more energy into the pads and slowing the car.

Location: Environmental Microbial & Food Safety Laboratory
Project Number: 8042-42000-018-23-T
Project Type: Trust Fund Cooperative Agreement
Start Date: Jan 3, 2013
End Date: Jan 2, 2016
The objective of this cooperative research project is to investigate non-destructive optical sensing-based comprehensive tools and techniques to rapidly assess safety and quality of fruits and vegetables and this will reduce food safety risks in pre-harvest and post-harvest production. This work will focus primarily on fresh fruits and vegetables, such as leafy greens, that have been associated with serious food safety problems, as well as other common items such as apples and tomatoes. This project will focus on the validation of the ARS optical sensing technologies for the detection of contaminated and defective fresh produce, and chemical and biological contamination of food products and processing surfaces.
The goal of this project is to improve the safety and quality of produce consumed by the public. Hyperspectral imaging systems will incorporate multitasking capabilities that allow users to select desired inspection criteria, and to optimize wavelengths and thresholds to address changes in produce characteristics on-the-fly. To address the industry-identified need to survey produce in-field for fecal contamination, technology to detect feces in produce fields will be developed based on a laser-induced fluorescence imaging technique. To address the potential to detect chemical and biological substances of food safety interest, a novel Raman macro-scale imaging system will be developed and validated. The scientific products will be sensing technologies, including databases of wavelengths and detection algorithms useful for inspecting produce and surfaces in produce production environments. The practical products will be imaging devices and systems that can be used to reduce the risk of foodborne illness associated with produce. More specifically, to allow comprehensive inspection of produce, two prototype systems for assessing multiple quality and agri-food safety issues using a single camera will be developed, one for "flat" produce such as lettuce and a second for "round" produce such as apples. These systems will incorporate multitasking capabilities that allow users to select desired inspection criteria for quality and safety issues, and to optimize wavelengths and thresholds to address changes in produce characteristics on-the-fly. A previously developed handheld sanitation inspection device for inspecting poultry processing areas will serve as the basis for the development of an enhanced device for inspection of produce processing surfaces, and to enhance the efficacy of existing ATP survey methods by identifying sites for testing. Technology for using laser-induced fluorescence to detect fecal material in produce fields will be developed, as will a novel Raman hyperspectral macro-scale imaging system that can image large objects, such as fruits or vegetables.

We'll help you find the right solution for your needs
Does this sound like your topic?
Let us know when your receive great advice so we can thank our lawyers and point others with similar questions in the right direction.Got it!
I live in Chicago and have an IL drivers license but don't own a car, and therefore don't have auto insurance, and only rent a car on occasion when needed, as when I traveled to Detroit this past summer (WI plate) where I received a traffic ticket for failing to stop at a stop sign. I want to contest the ticket, but can only do so in person at a future court date in Detroit, but for obvious reasons cannot afford (time and money) to attend since I live almost 300 miles away. My driving record is clean, and haven't received a moving violation ticket in over 10 years. I plan to write a letter to the Detroit 36th District Court Judge to explain and defend my predicament in the hope that he may discard the ticket. What can I expect to happen if I don't attend the court date and ignore the fine?
Dont write a letter, its not allowed. You either hire an attorney to resolve case, go yourself or pay the ticket.Ask a similar question
It is very inappropriate to write a letter to the judge and the judge will probably never see your letter anyway. Your argument that you live too far away/cannot afford to come to Detroit/etc. will not be accepted. Hire a MI attorney to handle this for you, or bite the bullet and make the trip.
You will receive more responses from Detroit area attorneys if you report using a Detroit location. You have targeted Illinois lawyers.Ask a similar question
Writing a letter to the judge will not help you. If you are set on contesting the ticket, your best options are to either get yourself to court (check out Amtrak, Megabus, or Greyhound for affordable transportation from Chicago to Detroit) or contact a Detroit based attorney. Depending on the court, they may be able to handle the ticket without you present but it is best to ask a lawyer in the area about local rules. Many lawyers offer free consultations. Try giving them a call. From there you will be armed with information and ready to make the most educated decision you can. Best of luck!Ask a similar question

Manager Steve Lomas hopes St Johnstone can claim a European berth which will enable him to keep his squad intact next season and retain strikers Francisco Sandaza and Cillian Sheridan.
Saints can go three points clear of Dundee United in fourth place in the Clydesdale Bank Premier League with victory in their game in-hand at Inverness on Wednesday night.
There are twists and turns to come in the race for Europe, but Lomas knows a strong finish could prove crucial in his bid to secure a new contract for in-demand Sandaza and to sign on loan CSKA Sofia front man Sheridan on a permanent deal.
Lomas said: "I still haven't given up hope of re-signing Fran; I'd love to sign him and Cilly. If we can push up the league and get some more money, maybe getting into Europe will go towards getting them to stay. To qualify for Europe would be unbelievable, but there's a long, long way to go.
"I'd like to think the lads have enjoyed their football this year. I've certainly enjoyed managing them. They're a great bunch of boys."
Sandaza and Sheridan could be joined at McDiarmid Park in the near future by Derek Riordan, the third highest scorer in SPL history behind Kris Boyd and Henrik Larsson. Former Hibernian and Celtic forward Riordan, a free agent after a short spell at Chinese Super League side Shaanxi Chanba, trained with Saints last week and Lomas is keen to do a deal.
The Saints boss added: "There's no doubt I would like to sign Derek Riordan. It's about whether or not we can finance it, the technicalities of the deal. Derek is looking to get somewhere until the end of the season and maybe look to assess things going forward - I can understand that."
The most immediate priority for Saints is the trip to the Tulloch Caledonian Stadium, when they will almost certainly be without key midfielder Murray Davidson. Davidson scored in the 2-1 win over Hearts before going off and underwent a scan on a knee injury. Lomas expects Davidson to miss out and the knee will be assessed ahead of Sunday's clash with Celtic.
Having beaten Hearts, Lomas is hoping his team can build on the result by extending their impressive away run at Inverness, who won at Aberdeen on Saturday.
"We're at the business end of the season. It will be very tough wherever we go," said Lomas, whose Saints side have lost away just twice this term. "We knew this would be a tough week. The first part of the job is done, getting three points at home, and now we look at a difficult journey to Inverness. We'll have to be at our best to get anything from Inverness."

Is there RFC material on Contexts for LDAP? I thought contexts were an X.500 concept that never
made it to LDAP. Essentially tags are a workaround to provide similar capabilities. However is there
a contexts for LDAP RFC I missed?
Hi all,
We have a feature listed in the 2.0 roadmap and is currently being implemented by Emmanuel. It's the "Value and ServerEntry" item. What I want to ask is that as we are encapsulating attribute values with a Value class now, is it possible to support Contexts during this effort? You know there are Language Tags in LDAP and we do not support them. I really do not like the idea of supporting only Language Tags instead of the more general one, Contexts. So if we'll support this feature it should be Contexts, not only Language Tags.
Any comments on the possibility of this addition?

In this week's latest installment of our '5 Questions With' feature we're getting to know the folks at Jack's Abby Brewing:
1. What's the next great beer you're working on?
Just last week we visited our friends at Otter Creek in Vermont to brew our collaboration beer, Joint Custody, a nouveau Pilsner featuring Huell Melon and Mandarina Bavaria hops. We're debuting the beer at the Vermont Brewers Festival during the weekend of July 17-18 and it'll be available on draught and in six-pack 12 oz cans.
2. You're barrel aging lagers - how's that going?
Barrel Aging is going great...our problem of not having enough space for our barreling program is being alleviated as our new brewery we're currently building will have much more room for barrel aging! Our latest focus has been our Sour Project -- we're aging lagers in red wine barrels that we've soured with the aid of wild yeast and specially cultivated bacterial strains. We often also add fruit in the mix, creating clean, tart and citrusy flavors.
3. Do you see consumers embracing IPL's?
Absolutely - we think consumers love the clean, crisp finish that IPLs provide without watering down any of that hop flavor.
4. Please explain the difference - that impacts taste buds - between ales and lagers?
Lagers ferment cleaner and crisper. They don't produce the esters and phenolics that ale yeast can. They also tend to ferment beer drier which adds to the crispness
5. How did the new hop field do?
The hop field continues to produce but was victim to a flood that it hasn't quite come back from.

The Texas Rangers made their managers, coaches and staff for all of their minor-league affiliates in 2013 official today. That includes some new faces. Here's the club's release about the additions of Joe Mikulik (outfield coordinator), Steve Mintz (Myrtle Beach pitching coach), Bobby Rose (coach in Spokane) and Jorge Orta (coach in Arizona). Also, Corey Ragsdale will now manage Hickory and Kenny Holmberg will handle the managing duties in Arizona.
Scott Coolbaugh, who was the Rangers' hitting coach in 2013, is back in Triple-A Round Rock for the 2013 season. Here's information from the club release about the new members of the staff:
Mikulik, a Weimer, Texas native, joins the Texas organization after spending the previous 13 seasons with the Colorado Rockies, all as the manager of the Low-A Asheville Tourists. In his 13-year run as Asheville manager, Mikulik compiled the most wins of any manager in Asheville history and was named the South Atlantic League Manager of the Year in 2007. Mikulik was Houston's ninth round selection in the 1984 June Draft and played for 12 years in the Astros organization, rising to Triple-A Tuscon.
Mintz will mentor the pitchers at High-A Myrtle Beach in 2013 after spending the previous 11 seasons in the Minnesota Twins organization, including the last four with High-A Ft. Myers. Mintz pitched professionally for 12 seasons with Los Angeles, Boston, San Francisco, San Diego, Pittsburgh, and Anaheim after he was originally drafted as a catcher by the Dodgers in the 1990 June Draft. Rose will join the coaching ranks for the first time following a standout career in Japan with the Yokohoma BayStars and Chiba Lotte Marines in the Japanese Central League from 1993-2000 and 2003. Rose led the BayStars to a league championship in 1998 and batted .339 with 37 home runs and 153 RBI in 1999, setting a Central League record with 192 hits that was broken six years later by current Milwaukee outfielder Norichika Aoki. Orta had spent seven seasons in the Cincinnati organization, including each of the last three as a hitting coach in the Arizona League. A two-time All-Star, Orta batted .278 with 130 home runs and 745 RBI in a 16-year big league career with Chicago-AL, Cleveland, Los Angeles, Toronto, and Kansas City. Orta had spent the previous nine seasons in the Houston organization, with three of those campaigns as a manager at Martinsville (Rookie).

The Ashes are gone, but not before the first three matches of the series reinforced most of the expectations that have been expressed over the past few months.
Australia's strength is still in their pace bowling, while Michael Clarke remains the country's only batsman of elite class. Until the selectors can identify three or four batsmen to support Clarke in his endeavours, and it is not to say that they are not already in the team, the team's win-loss ratio will remain in the red.
Shane Watson has flattered for years without escaping the suspicion that the rigours of Test cricket are too great a burden for his emotional and physical powers. David Warner is a wayward talent; Steve Smith a maturing one. Chris Rogers has an old head on old shoulders, but the value of 20,000 first-class runs and a simple balanced technique gives him the chance to win a two- or three-year Test career. Usman Khawaja looks the goods but has not yet confirmed that he has the goods.
They all make occasional contributions but none of them can match Clarke's ability, as he did in the first innings at Old Trafford, to swing the match away from the opposition.
Yet Clarke's splendid batting and the efforts of the whole-hearted Ryan Harris and Peter Siddle were enough to expose the narrow gap between the teams. England have repeatedly fallen prey to Australia's new-ball bowlers.
Scores of 102 for 3 and 121 for 3 at Trent Bridge, 26 for 3 and 30 for 3 at Lord's and 64 for 3 and 27 for 3 at Old Trafford speak volumes for the top-order parallels between the teams. Harris is a muscular steamroller whose pistons are more durable than his joints. When he gets it right, as he did in the opening exchanges yesterday, he can threaten the barricades of the most obdurate batsmen.
Siddle is no thoroughbred but he does not need to be when the scent of battle is in his nostrils. Indefatigable and possessing a more subtle game than in previous seasons, he has responded to regular calls for his head with invariable displays of heart. Sixteen wickets have come in the first three Tests, many of them when Australia most needed a breakthrough.
Spin bowling remains one of Australia's most significant problems, however, and it is no surprise that the major point of difference between the teams has been Graeme Swann.
Australia have used two front-line twirlers for the negligible return of three wickets from 122 overs. Swann has 19 wickets from 173 overs and the opportunity to return the most successful series by any England off-spinner before or since Jim Laker.
Ashton Agar has a golden future. The teenager could be a 15-year Test cricketer who ends up batting at No 6 and claiming scores of wickets. Yet he was picked for the first Test on little more than promise and character. The experiment only lasted two Tests but the sight of Nathan Lyon bowling around the wicket to the right-handers' leg-stump in a bid to force a catch to leg slip yesterday revealed how dry Australia's well of spin imagination has become.
Lyon's second delivery was over the wicket and exploded from the footmarks into Joe Root's midriff, yet the bowler soon abandoned that attacking line for the lottery option of attempting to strangle a leg-side catch.
England deserve to retain the Ashes. They played the better cricket at the most critical moments, yet there is little between the teams. Certainly not enough to support a whitewash in either series, home or away, over the next six months.

"I WAS never really in to clubbing before I came to London, but now I think that was because of the poor standard of the clubs in my home area.
"When I go clubbing it is usually to drum and bass nights, but sometimes I like to enjoy the sheer diversity of the London club scene.
"London clubs cater for every musical persuasion and I think Bar Rhumba on Shaftesbury Avenue is proof of this. Musically it has something for everyone - house, drum and bass, jazz, indie - a real eclectic mix. I tend to pop in on Monday nights because the atmosphere is really chilled out and friendly, and it sets me up for the rest of my week.
"On Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Saturdays I work in a pub in Camden Town, which gives me enough money to finance my social life.
"Most people can't believe I work Saturday nights, but in my opinion they aren't the best clubbing nights anyway.
"On Thursdays I tend to go back to Bar Rhumba for "movement", a night of atmospheric drum and bass with jazzy undertones. Either there, or I'll go to Bagley's in Kings Cross for something more happy. Fridays I stick to The End, because I love the club.
"Some Saturdays I'm able to catch something at the Camden Palace. I used to go to Metalheadz at the Blue Note in Hoxton Square on a Sunday, but that's moved to The Complex in Islington, and I haven't tried it out yet."

Women You Should Know®
An Editorial Site For & About Dynamic Women
How many times have you bought a fresh herb bunch, only to throw it out cause you didn't use it quickly enough? A wilted slimy bag of green goop, tossed in the garbage – money wasted, and no sage for your favorite lemon-sage chicken dish you just prepped.
I swore I'd never kill innocent aromatics again so I came up with a bunch of herbal fixes and a battle cry to forever Save The Sage. So here's how to keep fresh herbs fresh…
Thyme, sage, rosemary, savory, oregano… these types of herbs, ones with woody stems, dry very well and maintain their flavor. I hang and dry lavender to make scented sachets too!
Norma chops the last batch of fresh chives straight from her garden.
Chives, cilantro, parsley, mint, basil… these types of herbs, ones with moist leaves and stems, freeze well and maintain their flavor. They're much more tasty than the dried and jar versions you buy.
My last suggestion is to label the bags to easily identify which herbs are which… especially so an unsuspecting freezer goer doesn't think you're running another kind of herb business out of your kitchen.
If you have a DIY home repair, maintenance or improvement question for Norma, now is your chance to ask-the-expert and have her answer. Your burning question may just be the "star" of an upcoming Fix-It Friday column.
Add your question to the comments section below or email it to Women You Should Know.
Fix-It Friday is an exclusive Women You Should Know® editorial series authored by seasoned veteran of home improvement, Norma Vally, the former host of Discovery Home Channel's series "Toolbelt Diva" and a show on Sirius Satellite Radio by the same name. The weekly column is designed to inspire women – weekend warriors, aspiring handywomen, and even seasoned DIYers – to take on home repairs and maintenance projects with confidence and gusto.

Drivers have no parking spaces on road
Stopping for pick-up and drop-off, let alone parking, has become impossible these days at the upper part of Wyndham Street and the area of Hollywood Road which connects with Wyndham Street. This is effectively a no-stopping area.
There is only one drop-off and pick-up space for cars.
However, parking has been provided for motorcycles and whole areas are cordoned off for this purpose.
Could the police or the Highways Department explain this anomaly?
Where can the office-goers working in the area from 1-20 Hollywood Road and between 60 and 70 Wyndham Street get off and get on cars or hail a taxi?
The police issue tickets even one space before the drop-off bay, as, technically, the driver has stopped in a no-stopping area.
The parking problems have to be remedied as soon as possible.
