Radio: WESO-AM (970).
Last year: Southbridge, 26-13.
Series: Southbridge, 50-39-2.
The Indians are looking to snap a six-year losing streak to the Pioneers, and this year they just may have the firepower to do it. Bartlett has scored 89 points in its last two games, and the Indians� offense has a tendency to put up some big numbers. They have scored more than 44 points four times this year. Junior running back Alexander Givins-Perry (126 carries, 1,224 yards, 13 TDs) had a breakout season, rushing 14 times for 249 yards against Uxbridge and then racking up 216 yards on 12 carries against South. Akeem Belnavis and James Patterson each have more than 470 rushing yards, so the ground game is a big strength for Bartlett. Ricky Spooner is a capable quarterback if the Indians need to go to the air, but if things go according to plan, they won�t have to. The Pioneers are young but talented, and are coming off a 29-16 win over Ayer-Shirley in which junior running back Emilio Torres rushed 22 times for 178 yards to help take down the Panthers. When the Pioneers� offense is clicking, it�s tough to stop. Ariel De la Cruz rushed for 111 yards and two scores in a win over Uxbridge. Southbridge has won just two of its last six games, but a win on Thanksgiving goes a long way toward motivating the Pioneers to work hard in the offseason and develop some young skill-position players.

Japan's Kansai Electric Power and Kyushu Electric Power agree to acquire 1M tons of low-sulphur high quality U.S. coal from Oxbow Carbon in a one-year deal. The contract comes as Japan's nuclear reactors remain closed following last year's Fukushima disaster. The prospect of selling more coal to Japan could boost the U.S.'s beleaguered coal sector, with stocks that might be worth watching today including BTU, ACI, RNO, OXF, JRCC, CNX, WLT, ANR, WLB and PCXCQ.PK.

Jill Biden's New Book Salutes Military Families
As Jill Biden tucked in her granddaughter, Natalie, one night in 2010 and they said their prayers together, the little girl whispered a reminder: "Don't forget, Nana, God bless our troops." The child's words became the title of a new book for children, out this month, penned by the vice president's wife.
The book chronicles Natalie's tough year without her father, Beau Biden, a major in the Delaware Army National Guard who deployed to Iraq in October 2008. In the book, then 4-year-old Natalie Skypes with her dad, draws and colors a flag for him, and comforts her 2-year-old brother, Hunter.
While the book tells her own family's story, Biden wrote it to capture the experiences of military families everywhere. "My inspiration was traveling all over the country and around the world, meeting with so many military families," Biden says.
War's Effects on Military Families
Since 2001, about 2 million children have had a parent serve overseas. Such separations can leave children like Natalie and Hunter feeling scared, confused, and vulnerable. An estimated one in four school-aged children of deployed parents suffers from depression.
Biden hopes her book will raise awareness, especially among educators, about the hardships military children endure. "Teachers and others should know about the sacrifices that military families make," says Biden, who has a doctorate in education. "As military families, and especially children, weather the multiple challenges of moves, new schools, and deployments, teachers and school communities can provide critical support and outreach."
Simple gestures can have a profound impact. Natalie's teacher, for example, posted a picture of Beau Biden's unit outside her classroom. "That picture with her dad in it meant a lot," Biden says. "She could see her dad there every day." Beau Biden's tour of duty ended in September 2009, and he returned to Delaware to resume his duties as attorney general.
Biden will donate the proceeds from her book to scholarships for children of military families. You can help, too. Her book closes with information on several organizations that support military families, such as Joining Forces, the initiative she and first lady Michelle Obama launched in 2011; the USO; and Blue Star Families.

I have not use the Nike system you speak of but I have tried out a Forerunner 201
It worked out well for me, after a friend let me use one for a week I could see the benefit of an impartial device closely tracking my workouts in time, speed, and distance. I intend to get one when I get my tax return or I might spend it on a new gun.
A far as boredom:
Try trail running on more challenging terrain, find a work out partner to help keep the motivation up, group runs, run with a purpose, join a team in training, find an event to train for, and with any type of exercise program set realistic short term goals and some long term goals as well, good luck
Find local events and other runners

Back on topic, whos got the toughest iPod out there, and where can I buy one?
"Just blame Sixto"
I reserve the right to make fun, point and laugh etc.
I uased to run in the early morning. Watching the sun come up, breathing the crisp air (even knowing it would be 110 in the shade later), and knowing that there were few people seeing what I was seeing... and even fewer doing what I was doing... was a real kick for me.
As far as improvement, there are several factors. Different intensities of exercise, as indicated by heart rate, have different effects. Arobic exercise at 70% (IIRC) MaxHR for your age is most effective at burning fat and calories, less so at increasing cardio-resp endurance. IIRC you have to get to 90% MaxHR for the most effective endurance gains.
IMO the best way to run isn't based on distance, it's based on time. Example: To increase endurance, run for 30 mins. 10 mins at 70%, 10 mins at 90%, and 10 mins at 70% again, then a 10 min walk cool-down. To lose weight, simply run the entire 30 mins at 70%... it has to do with the way your body produces energy, the 70% load utulizes more fat for energy.
Also, last I heard they decided that streching while "cold" is less effective, so not you want to do some warn ups, then strech, then run.

Any iPod can be tough... just get one of these cases:
As for getting the iPod, I buy all of mine directly from Apple. Amazon normally has slightly cheaper prices then most other places.
I have been runniong for 27 years, seriously. I ran my first 10K in 1981.
When I run I don't listen to anything. I day dream and think. It is the perfect time to work out all my problems and stress and just relax.
Plus I want to be able to hear things like cars screeching tires and rottweilers toe nails on pavement around me.

After months of debate, the program is set to announce today that it will sell its affordable "XO" laptops, custom-built for the developing world, in North America. But there is a twist: Buyers here must purchase two computers -- one for themselves and one for a child in the developing world, for a combined cost of $399, some of which is tax-deductible.
The nonprofit program also is talking to more than a dozen governors and numerous school districts about bulk orders, according to Walter Bender, president for software and content for the One Laptop per Child Foundation, of Cambridge, Mass. Offering the computers in the U.S., he says, will help finance overseas deployments and raise awareness about the project among U.S. students and teachers.
Launched in 2005 by Nicholas Negroponte, the founding chairman of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology's Media Lab, the One Laptop per Child Program seeks to distribute affordable laptops to millions of schoolchildren in the developing world. The original aim was to eventually sell them in bulk to governments and foundations for $100 each to give to schoolchildren, but the price goal has proved tough as costs have risen.
Approximately 7,000 prototype laptops, whose distinctive design includes a solar-panel charger and a thick handle, are already in schools in countries including Cambodia, Rwanda and Brazil.
The first official batch of 40,000 computers is slated for production in October, with the group hoping to have two or three times that number made by year end. The laptops will begin shipping to countries in South America and Africa by early November. Ramping up production swiftly will be necessary for the program to drive down its price toward the $100 goal.

Are low-cost laptops the best way to help children in the developing world? Two technologists debate. Also, join a discussion.
A number of other efforts continue to gain steam. NComputing Inc. aims to widen computer access by selling low-cost access terminals that allow a number of users to leverage the power of one PC. Advanced Micro Devices Inc., AMD 0.59 % which is supporting the One Laptop effort, is also promoting various others through its "50x15" initiative, which aims to connect 50% of the world's population to the Internet by 2015.
The One Laptop per Child Foundation weighed its U.S. strategy carefully. Some in the organization worried that selling in the U.S. market might distract the group from its developing-world focus. But others felt it would build momentum for the XO laptop, so named because the letters, stacked on their side, look like a child. In the end, the group decided to sell it here, but scrapped plans to modify the U.S. devices with additional software to appeal to U.S. consumers.
It isn't clear how strong demand for the product will be in the U.S., where leading laptop manufacturers continue to lower prices on more fully featured devices. The requirement to purchase two might be a barrier to some buyers.
Mr. Bender says that despite being designed to survive for years in third-world climates, the devices sport many features -- like an eBook reader and easy Internet access -- that will resonate with kids world-wide. "There is a level of simplicity in what we have done that people are looking for," he says.
Laptops from the first batch will be available to North American consumers for two weeks, starting Nov. 12 by phone or at the Web site XOgiving.org.

Investors need an explanation as to why management is trying hard to sell the company, if it is true. And management did come out before on the rumors about Pepsi and Coke. Now they are mum.
No truth, my report will discuss it in great detail and give even more insight on the business that others are reporting on. No truth!
This is good news. Now we have validation that they are interested in selling the company. This adds a premium to the stock price. I don't know why the market is selling it off. Anyone who thought Coke or Pepsi was going to buy this company at this stage was mistaken. Their (Coke and Pepsi) egos won't allow it. This company needs to be a major threat for them to take action. That may be 5 to 10 years away. Just my opinion folks.
the buyout premium was priced in and now it is taking out. Probably $60 without buyout. Now you have to watch out for the earning. If the earning is bad, you see $40 stock here.
Nice thinking there dotcomfool. By then it's too late like how INTC's ego ignored ARM.

A space heater sparked a 4:30 a.m. blaze that destroyed a Hastings family's home.
No injuries were sustained in the blaze or the response it merited.
The house, located at 212 West Holtz Street, had no functional smoke detectors, Jeremy Robshaw, St. Johns County Fire Rescue spokesman, said in a phone interview today. Five people, including multiple children, lived in the house, he said.
"Those individuals fortunately were able to evacuate safely without injury," Robshaw said. "The structure is listed as a total loss."
The family is now receiving assistance from the Red Cross, he said.
The blaze appears accidental.
"That was our first really cold night last night and it is unfortunate but we also had our first space heater-related fire," he said. "A space heater was placed too close to combustibles."
Related story: SJFR to public: Use space heaters safely
The family escaping unharmed might be due at least in part to training one of the children had received, Robshaw said.
"One of the kids actually had just gone through our fire prevention program at Southwoods Elementary," he said. "Hopefully some of the stuff that we taught them there helped them get out unharmed."
The blaze, which was limited to the house, was brought under control within 15 minutes, Robshaw said. The fire was extinguished entirely not long thereafter.

Award Created in Memory of Conseula Francis
The International Association for the Study of Popular Romance (IASPR) is proud to announce the creation of a new essay award in honor and memory of our colleague Conseula Francis. The winning essay will receive a $250 USD cash prize and be published in the peer-reviewed Journal of Popular Romance Studies, pending any needed revision according to the judges' comments.
The Francis Award is for the best unpublished essay on popular romance media and / or the logics, institutions, and social practices of romantic love in global popular culture. Essays may focus on work in any medium (e.g., fiction, film, TV, music, comics, or advice literature) or on topics related to real-world courtship, dating, relationships, and love.
Conseula Francis's work on popular romance fiction focused on African American authors and representations of Black love, and priority for the Francis Award will be given to manuscripts that address the diversity of, and diversities within, popular romance and romantic love culture: e.g., diversity of race, ethnicity, gender, religion, class, sexuality, disability, or age.

News Roundup: CFP, items added to the Romance Wiki and more
I haven't posted links for a while so this is a very, very long post. It covers a lot of areas, including items I've added to the Romance Wiki and calls for papers.
Romance readings:
Amy Burge will be at the Edinburgh Fringe (16 August) leading a session about romance writing.
Ali Williams has launched the CatRom Project, "an exploration of the way in which category romances address and engages with social issues. Its primary objective is to create a collection of analysis of individual novels, as well as interviews with authors and editors within the genre on the subject of issues within category romance."
Evangeline Holland has posted a paper on "Pistols and Petticoats: How Women Write the West", which is a reading of Western focused on Jezebel by Katherine Sutcliffe (1997), Fair Is the Rose by Meagan McKinney (1993), and Fall From Grace by Megan Chance (1997). She finds that
In the Western romance, as presented by female writers for a primarily female audience, the frontier myth is strong, particularly Turner's thesis that the West was "'free land' into which the pioneers moved [and] was available for the taking, and that American progress began with a regenerative retreat to the primitive, followed by a recapitulation of the stages of civilization." (White) All three novels end in some degree on a farm, with little interrogation as to how it is be acquired, but with the implication that it—domesticity through landownership and homesteading—is necessary for a believable romantic ending.Romance Documentary update:
"LOVE BETWEEN THE COVERS was selected as the #1 choice of all 2015 videos by the American Library Association's Booklist Review".
Calls for Papers:
- Black Love: A Symposium The 80th Anniversary of Zora Neale Hurston's Their Eyes Were Watching God. University of Kansas, September 14-16, 2017. The organisers "invite scholars, writers, and artists to reflect upon Black Love—its history, its reiterations, and its futurity—at a symposium to be held at the University of Kansas" and the "Symposium presentations may cover, but are not limited to, the following topics" of which the first is "Romance novels". More details here.
- Lesbian Lives Conference 2017: Lesbian Love/s. University of Brighton, UK, 24-25 February 2017. Dr Olu Jenzen (University of Brighton) specially forwarded details of the conference to romance scholars so it's clear that our participation would be welcome. More details here.
- The Society for the Philosophy of Sex and Love, 12-15 April 2017, at the Westin Hotel in Seattle. Panel session for SPSL, to be held as part of the group meeting program of the Pacific Division of the American Philosophical Association. Papers on any topic related to the philosophy of sex and love are welcome. More details here.
Jo Beverley (in memoriam):
News of Jo Beverley's death on 23 May was met with great sadness by members of the romance community, including the Romance Writers of America, her colleagues and readers at the Word Wenches blog, and individual authors such as Lynne Connolly.

[As I've mentioned before, I don't tend to add items about Fifty and Twilight to the Romance Wiki. They're kind of a phenomenon in their own right, though obviously they do have a romance at their centres. This article really disappointed me because it only looks at Twilight, Fifty Shades and a Pride and Prejudice fan fic but nonetheless draws sweeping conclusions about popular romance fiction, such as "Romance's generic requirement that the hero should be volatile in his affections and sexually intimidating is brought to its logical conclusion in these series" (618). This is not a "generic requirement" of romance: the author would have done better to limit their conclusions to Twilight and Fifty.]

Romances in Ladino
Eric just re-tweeted an announcement about the republication of some romances in Ladino.
Seventeen of these little pamphlets were among the books donated by the family of Israël-Salvator Révah (1917-1973). They're works of popular romantic fiction, written in Ladino (the language of Sephardi Jews, which is very similar to medieval Castilian/Spanish) and published in Istanbul between 1930 and 1933. [Images and details from eSepharad.com]
Karen Gerson Şarhon is responsible for the republication of the works by the
Sentro Sefaradi de Estambol. They'll be publishing 16 of them, at a rate of 3 every month and a half. The first three (pictured at the very top of this page) are: El Amor de Antonyo por su Mujer (by Moiz Habib), La Ermoza Janeta entre dos Amantes (by Eliya Gayus) and El Amor de Matilda kon dos Jovenes (by Moiz Habib). Anyone interested in obtaining copies should write to: email@example.com [Details from Salom]

Reporting back on a conference
I went to the Representations of Romantic Relationships and the Romance Genre in Contemporary Women's Writing symposium/mini-conference yesterday and I've written up my notes over at my blog.
There were papers on Harlequin Mills & Boon and on Mary Balogh, some on works which might (or might not) be classified as romance and papers which discussed other works of fiction by women in relation to popular romance fiction. They included:
Veera Mäkelä, Independent Researcher (previously studying at the University of Helsinki) - Acting for Herself, by Herself: Learning, Regaining, and Employing Female Agency in Mary Balogh's Dark Angel, Lord Carew's Bride and The Famous Heroine.

Changes at IASPR
--Eric Selinger
After a three-year term, Pamela Regis is stepping down from her position as President of the International Association for the Study of Popular Romance (IASPR).

She will be succeeded as President by Eric Murphy Selinger, who also serves as Executive Editor of IASPR's peer-reviewed open-access publication, the Journal of Popular Romance Studies.
Other changes in the IASPR leadership will be announced in the coming weeks. In the meantime, all of us in Team IASPR / JPRS look forward to welcoming romance scholars from around the world at the Sixth International Conference on Popular Romance later this month in Salt Lake City!

Sad News: Conseula Francis
Eric posted the following message to the Romance Scholar listserv earlier today:
Very sad news this morning: romance scholar Conseula Francis, who also worked on James Baldwin, Octavia Butler, and many other authors and topics, has died. Her husband posted this on Facebook this morning:
Dear Friends,
It is my sad duty to report, that shortly before dawn on May 9th, 2016, Conseula Alena Francis passed from this Earth. Not only was she the love of my life, but she also was a loving mother who blessed me with two wonderful girls.
Among her peers, she was well-respected as a scholar, academic, and administrator. As an educator, she was loved by her students, many of whom unabashedly agree that both in and out of the classroom she changed lives. She was beloved by her friends, and as a sister, daughter, sister-in-law, and daughter-in-law, she was adored by her relatives.
As her light passes into the next world, she leaves this world dimmer and colder. Please keep her in your memories.

I knew from FB that she had gone into the hospital, but her posts had indicated that it was nothing serious. It's a terrible loss to her family, her academic community, and to the field.
Conseula's groundbreaking essay on Zane as a romance novelist was published in the Romance Fiction and American Culture anthology last month; she was a contributor to the Popular Romance Project, with posts on iconography of the Obamas and on Zane and respectability politics. She was a deeply valued peer reviewer for JPRS, and appeared there in print as an interviewer of Joanna Russ.
She will be missed.
The College of Charleston's tribute to her can be found here. The Post and Courier has published a short obituary as has ABCnews4.
[Edited to add: Another article, written by one of Conseula's colleagues, has been published at Inside Higher Education.]

What Is Love? Romance Fiction in the Digital Age [...] a two-day Popular Romance Project conference that brought romance authors, readers, publishers, and scholars in many disciplines together for four fascinating panel discussions.The links below take you straight to the videos on Vimeo:
Panel 1 discussed "What Belongs in the Romance Canon?"
Panel 2 asked "What Do The Science and History of Romance Reveal?"
Panel 3 looked at "Community and the Romance Genre"
Panel 4 focused on what's "Trending Now: Where is Romance Fiction Heading in the Digital Age?"

CFP: Representations of Romantic Relationships and the Romance Genre in Contemporary Women's Writing
Representations of Romantic Relationships and the Romance Genre in Contemporary Women's Writing
Saturday 11th June 2016, Sheffield Hallam University
Co-hosted with the Postgraduate Contemporary Women's Writing Network
'…It would be at best grossly incurious and at worst sadly limited for literary critics to ignore a genre that millions and millions of women read voraciously' (Pornography for Women is Different, Ann Snitow, 1979)Almost forty years have passed since Snitow's ardent defence of the importance of recognising and examining the romance genre, however critical consideration of the romance remains limited. Some have suggested that this could be a result of a snobbery associated with romantic fiction, or perhaps even more startlingly due to a general lack of interest in the literature women write and read (Light [1984], Philips [2006] and Radway [1984]). Critic Emily S. Davis states 'Romance…does not get much love in critical circles…it is no coincidence that the areas most frequently dismissed as inconsequential…are precisely those identified with disempowered groups such as women and queers.'
Although there remains an overall absence of criticism the importance of women writers' relationship with the romance and the effect it has on women readers has been acknowledged, particularly in relation to feminism. In ''Returning to Manderley' – Romance Fiction, Female Sexuality and Class' Alison Light acknowledges that romances are '…often seen as coercive and stereotyping narratives which invite the reader to identify with a passive heroine who only finds true happiness in submitting to a masterful male.' In contrast the most well-known and acclaimed critic on the genre, Janice A. Radway, stressed 'Romance is being changed and struggled over by the women who write them.' Indeed, contemporary women writers from the Booker Prize winning Margaret Atwood to the self-proclaimed 'chick-lit' writer Sophie Kinsella have written novels which use the romance genre and/or focus on romantic relationships and could be seen to be part of a re-writing of the genre.
Given the significant links between the romance, women writers and women readers, conversation around the presence of the genre in contemporary fiction is crucial. This symposium seeks to encourage this discussion.
Topics may include yet are not limited to the thematic list below:
• The presence of romantic relationships and the use of the romance genre in contemporary women's writing
• The relationship between the romance genre and feminism
• The perception of romance as a low-brow genre, and the extent to which this perception offers critical and intellectual insights into debates about how we define women's writing and cultural contribution
• The future of the romance genre within contemporary women's literature
A 250-word abstract for 20-minute papers including a brief personal statement, should be submitted to email@example.com by Friday 8th April 2016.

I have a Cisco 881w, and I would like to setup NBAR in my NetFlow Analyzer.
But it says that my router misses this MIB in order to allow NFA to poll the router with snmp to get NBAR infos.
From the FAQ page of the NetFlow Analyzer website, it responds to my error:
Q. I am able to issue the command "ip nbar protocol-discovery"
on the router and see the results. But NFA says my router does
not support NBAR, Why?
A. Earlier version of IOS supports NBAR discovery only on router. So you can
very well execute the command "ip nbar protocol-discovery" on the router and
see the results. But NBAR Protocol Discovery
support came only on later releases. This is needed for
collecting data via SNMP. Please verify that whether your
router IOS supports CISCO-NBAR-PROTOCOL-DISCOVERY-MIB.
The missing MIB is: CISCO-NBAR-PROTOCOL-DISCOVERY-MIB
I found it here: ftp://ftp.cisco.com/pub/mibs/v2/CISCO-NBAR-PROTOCOL-DISCOVERY-MIB.my
But how can I add this MIB into the router?
The IOS of my router is: c880data-universalk9-mz.151-3.T1.bin

Just wondering if there's any way to use WooCommerce/Wootique for an online catalog only -- no cart, no user accounts, just as a way of showing prices and offering affiliate links, so that when the user clicks on "add to cart" (except it would say something like "get it now") s/he's taken to another site.
Specifically, where in the code to go to to achieve that effect.
(I know this is a crazy round-about way of doing something WooCommerce was never intended to do but please bear with me and just regard it as a thought experiment of sorts!)

Layton, UT
Travis is 19 years old, I'm not ready to throw him under the bus. taysom is 23.
He was 19 the first half the season too when he was playing great. Playing poor is one thing, but he's losing winnable games.
Now he's a liability to the team, he deserves to be benched. Then he need to earn a PAC-12 starting role.
Right now he's anything but a starting QB.

So was whit just lying to the media when he said that the utes were loaded at qb
this year? This has been the worst qb management that I have ever seen at any
university. Utah fans can no longer get after Bronco for any failings at qb
Utah is in serious trouble the rest of the season with qb play like this.
Chris B has been noticeably absent from this article. I'm lovin it.

"Whittingham said the Utes might have two quarterbacks in the "upper echelon" of the Pac-12 in projected starter Travis Wilson and Adam Schulz--and freshman Brandon Cox is actually listed as a co-backup with Schulz, according to the university's athletics website."
July 7, 2013
"I think by game 3 we'll know if Wilson is our QB for the future. The good thing this year is we finally have the much needed PAC-12 depth at QB."
Sept. 17, 2013
"As far as Wilson, he's a legit dual-threat QB. I think so far he's proven that he's a legit PAC-12 QB."

"As far as Wilson, he's a legit dual-threat QB. I think so far he's proven that he's a legit PAC-12 QB."
What's your point?
In July, I believed what KW was saying. I wasn't at practice so I couldn't judge for myself.
On Sep 17 he was rated a top 25 QB, coming off an outstanding performance against Oregon State with over 420 passing/rushing yards on offense. The next week he went out and schooled BYU.
Since then Wilson looks anything but a top 25 QB.
That's why the article says, "Ute quarterback dealing with fall from grace".

The writing was on the wall a month ago when Wilson threw 6 picks against UCLA; it just took you a little longer than most of us to recognize how mediocre Travis really was.
In his last 5 games:
59 of 122 (48%), 709 yards, 7 TD, 13 Int, 94.8 rating.

Wilson's early Top 25 passing efficiency rating was built on his "monster" 242.51 PER versus Weber State; his PER versus Oregon State was only 130.41, and his PER for the season is only 129.65. In his last 5 games (since BYU), his PER has been 94.80.

Football can be similar to golf. Some days, you'll hit every fairway, but

Here's to hoping that the Utes can figure out how to "drive for show, and putt for dough." The Utes had ASU against the ropes. That fourth quarter turned out to be much like a missed four footer. And those are the missed putts that hurt the most.

You think? Of course losing to top 25 ranked teams OSU, UCLA, and ASU by a combined 11 points has every Ute player, coach, and fan up in arms. A Top 25 ranking, having an undefeated or one loss season, and the chance for a more prestigious bowl have all gone swirling down the drain with every late game collapse, every gift wrapped interception. Throw very winnable games versus Zona and SC into the mix, and it's easy to see why Ute frustration is at "DEFCON 3."
While not on the same level, I'm sure you can relate losing 4 consecutive rivalry games to said DEFCON 3 frustration.

Is there a tool (sync, backup or copy like) that can do for directory trees on a FATxx partition what an utility like Norton Ghost does for whole volumes?
A tool that, while copying directory trees, preserves file CAM dates, directory MC dates AND the "." and ".." sublinks MC dates with the usual attribute preserving and source tree sorting?
Now, although I do know the answer to that question, I would really like to stop wasting time in a disk editor after such copy tasks. NTbackup comes very close, but directory pointers still have the current date. Vcopy (Verbatim Copy) does the same without creating a intermediate file. Close, but legacy data needs its metadata.
Any other tool or time to rewrite a script that I did a long time ago for MSDOS - change the system time, create a dir, revert clock and then copy away?

Rainbow Biosciences inked a letter of intent to acquire or form a joint venture with n3D Biosciences. Working in collaboration with the MD Anderson Cancer Center and Rice University, n3D has developed a process to enable cell culture in a 3-D environment that more closely mimics their growth in vivo.
The resulting Bio-Assembler™ platform uses magnetic levitation to lift cells off a flat surface. Magnetic Nanoshuttle nanoparticles are first delivered to the cells in their culture dish, and a magnetic drive placed on top of the closed dish, which causes the cells to levitate. n3D claims the system enables the rapid formation of 3-D structures and cell-cell interactions, is compatible with virtually any cell type (including primary and stem cells) and standard culturing protocols or diagnostic techniques, and enables 3-D co-culturing. The technique in addition gives scientists the capability to move and shape tissues for invasion studies and tissue engineering.
Rainbow Biosciences is a division of Rainbow Coral Corp, and has been set up to develop and market bioscience solutions for physicians, researchers, and pharmaceutical engineers. The firm's headquarters were established in Houston, TX, in November.

AbstractThe utility of passive electro-optical, infrared (EO/IR) systems to contribute to closing the fire control loop to enable successful engagement of threat ballistic missiles has been anticipated for over a decade. Investments in the Airborne Laser (ABL) have begun to reap dividends as that program systematically addresses the myriad of technical challenges necessary to increase readiness of critical elements and demonstrate the efficacy of a nearly autonomous, mostly passive, mobile boost phase intercept capability. Operation of the ABL requires a predicted location of the threat so that a fire control solution can be determined. Passive EOIR systems can provide the solution to the challenge presented to ABL through a technology known as monocular passive ranging (MPR). Passive EO/IR based MPR has been reported on in the open literature for over two decades , , and more recently researched through the development, operation and test of sensors designed for this purpose . Applying field proven expertise to design, develop and deliver instrumentation and sensor systems that exploit a variety of phenomenological features, SciTec proposes to complete the research for a dual mode infrared staring-spectral, MPR enabled system that matures use of the MWIR phenomenological features through a robust multi-parameter fusion process
