One of the more unusual facts I learnt during my Danube waterways cruise was told to me in Budapest. As we passed the University, our guide, Cathy, pointed out that Ernõ Rubik, who invented the Rubik's Cube in 1974 originally to teach three-dimensional applications to his architectural students, is an occasional lecturer there. Ernõ was born in 1944 while his Jewish parents were in hiding from the Nazis.
A new, one time only, Jewish Heritage river cruise is due to set sail next May. The boat will amble along the River Elbe visiting Berlin, Dresden and Prague.
These three cities are replete with Jewish history that dates back over a thousand years. Incidentally, the Jewish community in Berlin is the fastest growing in Europe, despite the Holocaust.
The on-board experience on the five star Peter Deilmann MV Frederick Chopin ship promises to be an intimate one as the ship only carries 79 guests in 41 staterooms.
Is there anywhere in England more beautiful than the Cotswolds? And is there anywhere more Cotswoldish than Chipping Campden? Its very name has an irresistibly bucolic ring, evoking images of milkmaids and swains, village greens, and pubs serving foaming tankards of ale. And, while it can be relished for its own sake, Chipping Campden is encircled by such radiant villages as Broadway, Moreton-in-Marsh, Stow-on-the-Wold and Shipston-on-Stour, not to mention such splendid, historic towns as Evesham, Cheltenham and Stratford-on-Avon.
You would have little inkling of Hungary's turbulent history from its elegant, unhurried capital, Budapest, which bears a striking resemblance to Paris in the layout of its wide boulevards and Empire architecture, much ofit adorned with exuberant stone decoration.
Until the Chain Bridge was built in 1849, Pest was linked to historic Buda by ferry. When the unified city emerged as the capital in 1872, Jews were an integral part of it, having arrived during the Roman period, and forming a quarter of Budapest's population by 1939.
Sibling rivalry can be a painful business. One moment you are the focus of family attention: pretty, petite, gorgeously turned out and perpetually seen in all the most chi-chi spots. Then along comes a younger sister, more beautiful, better attired and with other enviable assets.
It was a warm, sunlit day in the cathedral city of Reims, France's Coronation City, in the Marne region of Champagne Ardenne. But inside it was a cool 10 degrees with 85 per cent humidity, the lights were dim, Je t'aime - the song Radio 1 banned for being too sexy, remember? - was playing. Above me were a bas relief of frolicking naked cherubs, and at the bottom of the stairs was Silus, a Frenchman, waiting to take me into a room full of guitar-playing finches.
The Greeks knew a good thing when they saw it. Arriving on Sicily's lush eastern coast nearly 3,000 years ago, they settled, prospered and expanded until they had colonised most of this fertile island suspended between Europe and Africa.
Their spirit remains alive and well in what is today an exquisite holiday playground. The fact that the warmest welcome and loveliest hotels and villas are concentrated in the east is attributed by locals to the nous of the commercially-minded Greeks whose descendants are Sicily's congenial hosts.
It's just a little old inn perched at the top of a slipway in a tiny Cornish hamlet, but The Lugger at Portloe has somehow achieved iconic status. Perhaps because its owners have injected seaside simplicty with a measure of chic without adding an ounce of pretension. Or simply because its romantic harbourside location is unbeatable.
Tolstoy loved it, Queen Victoria did too, Wagner got through a chunk of an opera here and Mark Twain was on a positive high wandering the streets. Where is this? Lucerne: a postcard-perfect Swiss lakeside town, tucked into the Alps within easy reach of Italy, Austria, France and Germany.
Right now, it is home to the greatest music-makers in the world - Vladimir Ashkenazy, Riccardo Chailly, Anne-Sophie Mutter, Simon Rattle, Gustavo Dudamel, Mariss Jansons and Claudio Abbado.
The Somme, in Picardy, is the spiritual home of First World War I tourism; a place where descendants of fallen soldiers go to find the graves of their father, uncle or grandfather, or parties of schoolchildren are taken on educational trips.
So entrenched is the Somme in its Great War provenance, that the area is an unlikely destination for holiday-makers in search of fun and frolics, but that doesn't mean it isn't a beautiful area of France to visit - even without the pull of history.

Microsoft: We won't read your private emails any more
Backlash against Hotmail snooping incident leads to change of heart
MICROSOFT HAS DECIDED that it will no longer access the emails of Hotmail users it suspects of foul deeds, announcing that from now on it will leave this activity to law enforcement.
The move comes a week after the firm reported the arrest of former employee Alex Kibkalo. He was caught after Microsoft accessed his Hotmail account without a warrant to discover that he had sent proprietary software code to a blogger based in France.
Microsoft faced a widespread backlash for using powers outside the realm of data privacy rules to monitor and access the content of private emails that happened to be sent via its email system.
In the wake of the criticism, general counsel and EVP for Legal and Corporate Affairs at Microsoft Brad Smith has revealed that the firm will swiftly change its ways.
"Last Thursday, news coverage focused on a case in 2012 in which our investigators accessed the Hotmail content of a user who was trafficking in stolen Microsoft source code," he said in a blog post. "Over the past week, we've had the opportunity to reflect further on this issue, and as a result of conversations we've had internally and with advocacy groups and other experts, we've decided to take an additional step and make an important change to our privacy practices."
Smith said that as of now, Microsoft will pass on any information related to suspected intellectual property or physical theft to law enforcement officials to decide if further action is required, rather than inspecting customers' private content itself. This change will also be put into Microsoft terms and conditions so it will be binding.
Smith cited Edward Snowden's exposure of PRISM and Microsoft's discomfort with NSA monitoring of its customers' data as another reason for the firm taking this step. "We've advocated that governments should rely on formal legal processes and the rule of law for surveillance activities," he noted.
"While our own search was clearly within our legal rights, it seems apparent that we should apply a similar principle and rely on formal legal processes for our own investigations involving people who we suspect are stealing from us. Therefore, rather than inspect the private content of customers ourselves in these instances, we should turn to law enforcement and their legal procedures."
The Electronic Frontier Foundation (EFF) is certainly happy with Microsoft's change of heart, and has teamed up with it on a joint privacy project, along with the Center for Democracy and Technology, aimed at identifying potential best practices.
"We commend Microsoft for its willingness to reconsider its policies, and we think it made the right decision. As many have noted, while the specific circumstances that led to this case may have been unusual, the underlying issues are common to the industry," the civil liberties organisation said.
Smith's approach to email privacy is an about-turn from that outlined by his deputy general counsel John Frank last week.
"While Microsoft's terms of service make clear our permission for this type of review, this happens only in the most exceptional circumstances. We applied a rigorous process before reviewing such content," Frank explained.
"In this case, there was a thorough review by a legal team separate from the investigating team and strong evidence of a criminal act that met a standard comparable to that required to obtain a legal order to search other sites. In fact, as noted above, such a court order was issued in other aspects of the investigation."
The EFF was swift in its condemnation of Frank's explanation over Microsoft's action.
"Unfortunately, this new policy just doubles down on Microsoft's indefensible and tone-deaf actions in the Kibkalo case," the organisation noted in a post last week.
"It begins with a false premise that courts do not issue orders in these circumstances because Microsoft was searching 'itself' rather than the contents of its user's email on servers it controlled. The monumental problem here is that Microsoft's process has none of the protections provided by our legal system.
"Yet another colossal problem with Microsoft's policy is its potential for abuse. The search in the Kibkalo case may have revealed criminal activity, but it was also conducted in Microsoft's self-interest, which is an exceedingly dangerous precedent. Combined with the kangaroo court potential of the company's new internal Warrants for Windows policy, Microsoft is playing with fire. It should have followed its own advice and asked the FBI to step in with a warrant." µ

GeneCards Summary for SNORA80B Gene
SNORA80B (Small Nucleolar RNA, H/ACA Box 80B) is an RNA Gene, and is affiliated with the snoRNA class.
fRNAdb sequence ontologies for SNORA80B Gene - the ORGUL cluster for this gene includes several descriptions:
H_ACA_box_snoRNA: Members of the box H/ACA family contain an ACA triplet, exactly 3 nt upstream from the 3' end and an H-box in a hinge region that links two structurally similar functional domains of the molecule. Both boxes are important for snoRNA biosynthesis and function. A few box H/ACA snoRNAs are involved in rRNA processing; most others are known or predicted to participate in selection of uridine nucleosides in rRNA to be converted to pseudouridines. Site selection is mediated by direct base pairing of the snoRNA with rRNA through one or both targeting domains.
Small nucleolar RNA SNORA42/SNORA80 family: The members of this family belong to the H/ACA class of snoRNAs that guide the sites of modification of uridines to pseudouridines [1]. Human ACA42 (SNORA42) was cloned from HeLa cells by immunoprecipitation with anti-GAR1 antibody [1]. Its is predicted to guide the pseudouridylation of residues U109 and U572 of 18S rRNA [3]. ACA42 shares the same host gene with ACA26, ACA46, ACA50 [1]. This family also includes mammalian snoRNA ACA67 (SNORA80) which was identified by computational screening and its expression in mouse experimentally verified by Northern blot and primer extension analysis [2]. ACA67 is proposed to guide the pseudouridylation of the same 18S rRNA residues as ACA42 [3].

Tomb Raider Definitive Edition review
We see how Lara looks after her next generation makeover
GAMES FANBOY DREAM GIRL Lara Croft blasted back into the limelight in 2013, when Square Enix released its rebooted Tomb Raider game. It's no secret that we loved the original game, with our bartender awarding it nine out of 10 beers in our review, a feat achieved by precious few games.
One year on, Square Enix has chosen to treat fans to a rebuilt, next-generation version of its 2013 hit titled Tomb Raider Definitive Edition.
We want to make it clear to all hardcore fans out there that this is not a sequel to the 2013 Tomb Raider. The new Tomb Raider Definitive Edition is a refinement. It tells the exact same story as the original 2013 version and the only new bits about the gameplay are that it comes bundled with all of the Xbox 360 and PS3 downloadable content (DLC) and features a few gameplay tweaks like the addition of voice command options that actually work.
The only real change - and when you see it you'll know that it's a big one - is to the game's graphics, with Square Enix having rebuilt the game from the ground up to take advantage of the Xbox One and PS4 games consoles' upgraded hardware.
This isn't a bad thing in terms of story and pure gameplay. Despite being a year old, Tomb Raider remains wonderfully fun to play.
The game opens to introduce a younger version of Lara Croft, one that is fresh out of university and on her first real adventure - think young Indiana Jones compared to Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade. Off at sea to discover the location and fate of a mysterious Japanese empire, Tomb Raider sees disaster strike the young Lara, with a storm marooning her and her crew on a remote island filled with tribal psychopaths and man-eating animals.
The setting heavily informs the gameplay and radically changes Tomb Raider's traditional platforming focus, adding survival horror and stealth shooter elements.
In general the game will task you to get to a specific location on the island. The location you need to get to is shown using Lara's "Instincts". Instincts is a special mode that can be activated on the Xbox One by tapping the LT button. When pressed it highlights areas of interest.
Getting to the location is always made difficult in a variety of ways. In some cases it can be simple Prince of Persia style platforming, requiring you to jump, crawl and shimmy your way through various bits of architecture or rock formations to get to your required location. In others it can require you to solve a basic puzzle, sneak past foes or blast your way through hostile forces.
Platforming in Tomb Raider is refreshingly different. Unlike most platforming games, Square Enix has chosen not to create a rehashed version of Assassin's Creed's (AC) free-running system and has instead gone its own way. Platforming in Tomb Raider is a far more hands-on affair than AC titles. It requires you to click a specific button for each action. Jumping onto a ridge you have to run at it and then click the A button to jump. Before landing you are in turn required to hit the X button to grab the ledge, or pull out your mountain axe and embed it into the rock wall.
While some people will bemoan the fact they can't mount complex free-running acrobatic feats simply by holding down the A button, we loved the more manual control system. The added complexity helps solidify the tone of the game. Tomb Raider isn't meant to be telling the story of a superhero capable of scaling walls without breaking a sweat.
The entire game is designed to show what Lara was like before she became that woman. It shows her during a dark period of her life, one where she's struggling to survive and avoid the savage local inhabitants that are hunting her. One where she sweats, bleeds and cries when she's hurt. The manual control system lends itself to this, making it so you feel that scaling a vertical cliff or tower is actually a challenge.

Every day open up the Gospels to a random place and start reading. When you come to a passage that gives a practical suggestion or command, think about a way that you can put that suggestion or command into practice in your daily life. Ultimately you'd like to make that which turns out to be beneficial a permanent or regular part of your life, but the only requirement is to put it into practice for at least that one day, and see how it goes. What you do doesn't have to be literally what is written in the Gospel, though of course it can be if that's applicable; either way, the important thing is to make a start and make some progress each day.
The term planet earth is an innovation which has arisen in recent centuries with the error of heliocentrism.If one wants to confess a pure doctrine of Orthodoxy, they should be careful not to refer to the earth as a planet, unlike the current Pope as well as Patriarch Kirill and Patriarch Bartholomew, who regularly speak in error when they refer to our planet earth.

- While the ascetic regime of an Italian seminarist in the late nineteenth century was of course alien - and sometimes alienating - I was impressed by his devotion and sincerity.
- The decline in vocations, which began under Pius XII, has not been reversed and there is now one seminarist for every twelve priests.

Russia has been holding military manoeuvres around the
disputed Kurile islands this week.
"Flights of military aircraft are ... carried out in strict
accordance with the international rules governing air space
and do not violate the border of other states," a Defence
Ministry spokesman, Colonel Alexander Gordeyev, told Interfax
news agency.
"All flights by the air forces in the region are strictly
regulated by the joint command and are carried out under the
supervision of air traffic control," said Gordeyev, the
spokesman for Russia's Eastern Military District.
Thursday was Japan's "Northern Territories Day", when rallies
are traditionally held calling for the return of disputed
islands off Hokkaido and are likely to heighten tensions with
Russia over the contested territories.

1994 BMW 5 Series Sedan 525i 4dr Sedan
I bought this car recently for $1400 with 184,00 miles on it.I was looking for something with decent gas mileage under $2k.I researched theses older BMW's.The engine reliability and overall quality were praised heavily.I have not been dissapointed! I look forward to driving it every day.I can see why BMW has earned a great reputation over the years.Styling is still appealing on the car and it has been extremely reliable with only normal wear items needing replacing. Fun to drive. My goal was to get a year max out of it.After 4 months, I am now thinking of seriously keeping it for as long as possible.It has been worth every penny and averages 27 mpg at 50/50 hwy vs city.
Fun to drive, handles great, ergonomics, seats are very supportive, great classic looking BMW styling.
BMW got it right with the E34.
I love my 5 series its the best car I've had in years. Comfort and drive ability are awesome, I just lowered it for better handling because man I love cruising it, only minor repairs done like fuel and air filter and an aftermarket exhaust along with brake kits for front and rear, if you want a great car with good mpg then this is the way to go.
comfort and drivability
a little more power stock but with few up grades you will make people stare
I purchased this car 5 months ago from its 2nd owner. I actually only paid 1500 for this car and it definitely had it's share of wear. When I bought it, it had 204,000 miles and now has 211,000. I commute 42 miles a day for work and this car runs like a champ! Some people may say "Wow, that's a lot of miles on it" but my 1984 318 had 330,000 and was still running when I sold it. Of course I had to replace a few things like tires, wiper blades, etc. Just basic maintenance things. This model is an excellent vehicle. Nothing drives like a BMW. So far, no problems whatsoever. It had some miles when I bought it, but I think I got a heck of a deal.
Handling, comfort, pretty good gas mileage.
Cup holders?? These cars were 35000 new and no cup holders
WOW, WOW, WOW.... What a great vehicle and a workhorse. I feel lucky to have the purchase. Fun to drive and is fast, handles well. Do your due diligence and you will be rewarded. Wanted a second vehicle (mini-van is primary) to bounce the wife and I around town for errands. This fits the bill. Not cheap to own... but preventive maintenance goes a long way. Use a real BMW mechanic and go on-line to the BMW forums and you will really enjoy the car.
Speed (crazy v-6 on a small frame) and handling, blowing doors off around corners (stock too).
More space for seating in the rear.
People said BMWs were expensive to maintain, but not this one. So far, only routine oil changes, shocks & other normal wear items, and an extremely reliable, low cost, and fun to drive car. Gets about 30 MPG on highway, 23 around town. Everything works on the car.

it's a nice way of making money if you want to put the effort in, but if you don't want to it doesn't matter, you can still just buy and use the properties as safe houses.

Santiago Calatrava under fire for cost overruns, leaks
Just last night, I helped a gentleman find his way out of the Milwaukee Art Museum. On the mezzanine between the museum's main floor and the parking garage there's a blind turn you've got to make.
"Oh, it's this way," I often say to people with that familiar where-am-I look on their faces.
It's a classic Santiago Calatrava-designed experience. Calatrava's buildings can be insensitive to basic human needs, such as finding things and getting around, but are often among the most gorgeous in the world, too. »Read Full Blog Post(5)

Catch James Garcia's Dream Act Play for Free, One Night Only, Guaranteed to Make Nativists' Heads Explode
Catch James Garcia's play for free, one night only...
The DREAM Act should be a no-brainer for even those anti-immigration types out there. Why shouldn't we try to keep smart, law-abiding kids here in the U.S. after we've educated them? Talk about model citizens and patriots! Many of these young men and women are even willing to serve in our military for a chance to stay in the country, which is a helluva lot more than most citizens are willing to do.
On humanitarian grounds, I've met too many teens and 20-somethings who've been crushed by our insane immigration policies not to support legislation that would let them remain. And there's no reason to wait for comprehensive immigration reform to get a law like this through Congress. The only folks who stand in our way are the toothless losers who spend their lives hating on Mexicans. Most of them are envious of these kids, that's why they want them to suffer for the supposed sins of their parents.
I'll be on the road most of the day today, so I'll miss seeing James Garcia's play Dream Act for free tonight at the Catalina Elementary School. All I can do is encourage everyone to attend, read my colleague Malia Politzer's recent piece "Return to Sender," which discusses the issue at length, and lobby your senators and representatives to act -- now. Details are below.
And for those haters out there who're down on the brown kids and whine about how all potential DREAM Act beneficiaries should go back to Mexico, I don't suggest you go. Likely your noggins will spontaneously combust after being confronted with the story of future DREAMers smarter than you are. Of course, that wouldn't necessarily be a bad thing . . .

Homeless and afraid of being deported in the face of an immigration crackdown, Victoria's dream of graduating from college is slipping away. (Note that this performance will be followed by a short discussion with the playwright and experts on the Dream Act, a proposed federal law that would provide a path to citizenship for the more than 65,000 undocumented young people who graduate from high school in the United States each year.)

Best CD Rates (Updated!)
With online savings accounts interest rates falling lower by the minute, I decided to put together a list of the best certificate of deposit (CD) rates. Based upon my experiences and reader feedback, I've put together a list of the best / most popular cd rates (certificate of deposit rates) in my original post below. I'll continue to update that list.
But you can also compare the highest CD rates in the table below which displays the highest interest rates across 200+ banks.
What follows is a list of the best CD rates at several well-known, nationally-available banks. Rates are for 12 months CDs unless otherwise indicated, and I have also indicated the minimum deposit to open a CD.
Best CD Rates (12 Month Term)
(CD rates current as of dates noted below)
|EverBank Rate as of 7/24/2016
|Ally Bank Rate as of 7/24/2016
|Bank of Internet Rate as of 7/24/2016
|Discover Bank Rate as of 7/24/2016
|HSBC – Online CD Rate as of 7/24/2016
|Citibank Rate as of 7/24/2016
For the sake of comparison, check out my list of the best online savings account interest rates. Right now, there's not a whole lot of difference. However, the CD rates listed here can be locked in such that they won't drop over the next year. With savings accounts, things may well get worse before they get better.
Finally, if you're looking for a higher yield and don't mind taking on some additional risk, you might want to check out Lending Club. It's not FDIC-insured, but average net annualized return for notes by grade A to C is between 5.25% and 8.57%. It's free to open an account, and you can get started with as little as $25. Rate as of 7/24/2016.
*Citibank Rate may vary by state, rate collected within NY.

I didn't look to see if one would be better over the other, but wouldn't it make more sense to invest in the savings installment-type of savings account, such as what Wilshire Bank offers? I know there's always the possibility of rates getting cut, but if you go with one year, like you mentioned in your post, the risk is low.
Just a thought….

I was shocked to see that American Express offer a 1.49%. I am going to try out for a year and see how the market is next year. Have you tried the Lending Club, it seems really good but it also seems very uncertain.

We're definitely looking for ways to store our money at a better rate, now that our house is going to be paid off in a couple months. The money will start piling up once we're no longer making a mortgage and extra principal payment every month. We have a pretty high savings rate right now – it's one of those high rate checking accounts. But it maxes out at $30K; won't pay interest on balances above that. We've already maxed out that account. But I had hopes that CD rates would be higher than the ones on here. Bummer.

I wonder why Sallie Mae Bank isnt listed as one of the best. Their CD rates seem to be better than most of, if not all of the rest. Is there a problem with this bank?

Has anyone tried the secured credit card offered by citibank? I was withdrawing some money to move to an Ally MM account @1.24%, and the banker suggested I try their secured credit card. It is supposedly set up for people with no credit to get credit, but it is tied to a CD that earns 4% over 18 months!!
How can this be possible? My only guess is that they will discover I have good credit and deny my account, but I'm going to try anyway.
6Amber Says:

Just wanted to post an update to my above comment. I went ahead and applied for this card, sent my check in with the application (as instructed) and a couple weeks later, I am now the happy owner of a (useless) credit card that I never plan to use but also a $5,000 CD making 4% over 18 months. HAPPY ME. Downside: There is a $29 annual fee associated with the card (which of course, over 18 months, will be dinged 2x). Still – what I am making as compared to any regular CD seems ridiculous. The max you can invest is $5,000 at this time though.
7Jay Says:

To Amber -
After fees you're only making about 1.5% annually.

Go to checkingfinder.com and enter your zip code. The site will provide a list of credit unions and community banks which offer Rewards Checking Accounts. My RCA earns 4.01% interest up to $25k, requires no minimum, and has no monthly fee. I have one RCA in my name and one in my significant other's name, so we get high interest on total of $50k if we choose this route. I leave $10k in each account because we get higher returns at Lending Club and in Vanguard and Schwab brokerage accounts.
To earn the high interest, we must accept online statements, make one ACH transaction (I pay my credit card bill) or have direct deposit, and make 10 debit transactions. I pay for canned veggies (59 cents each) or gum ten times. If I do not meet the requirements for that cycle, I earn only .25%. I find that an RCA is a great place to park money or an emergency fund.
I link my RCA to my Ally online accounts (savings account and Money Market.) THis way, I can use Ally to move funds between accounts in all my banks and brokerage firms.

Re: Jay – I don't follow your math.
A $5,000 CD early 4% interest over 18 months, even if compounded yearly (whereas Citibank claims they compound daily) will yield $303 interest. (Daily compound would yield $309). Deduct from the total the fee required that I mentioned for keeping this card ($29 annual, or $58 for the 18 months) and I still net $245. So yes, I see your point that the card fee deducts from the total interest, and that the actual final rate is closer to 3.25%. Still, if I were only earing 1.5% after fees, that would only yield $114. The satisfaction of the extra $130 is well worth the hassle it took to open this card, AND it is still earning more than any regular CD I could open today.
Re: Newly Frugal – thanks for the link – I checked it out but only found a max rate of 2% available from my zip code. Of course my state also doesn't allow me to participate in Lending Club, so go figure.
10Jay Says:
February 18th, 2011 at 11:41 pm
Re: Amber – Hi Amber, my math was based off of what you said, "a $5,000 CD making 4% over 18 months." . 4% of $5000 over 18 months = 11.11/month. 12(year) = $133.33 – $29(fee) you are left with $104.33 which comes to 2% annual return. I think I got 1.5% return because I accidently use $58 for the fee the first time.
I apologize for my mistake though, I took you literally when you said you'd get 4% over 18 months. Well done, and it's a shame the limit was set at $5000.
11Amber Says:
February 21st, 2011 at 2:53 pm
Sorry Jay I see the confusion. 4.07% APY would have been a more exact way to say it, and the term is for 18 months. However, all of this discussion is moot, as I just checked their site and they have recently adjusted the rate down to the market rate of 1%. It was just a marketing error that was honored well past when it should have been adjusted.

RFID (radio-frequency identification) systems are all around us. They help us get through toll booths faster. They help stores keep track of inventory. They are even in a lot of toys.
But there is no reason why the RFID chips need to stay in their original housing. In this project, I am going to show you how to transplant a RFID chip into a different housing to make it more convenient or at least more fun use. You can make an RFID reactive wallet, multi-tool, or cell phone case. The only limit is your imagination.
The first thing that you need to do is select a RFID chip that you would like to transplant into a different housing. As an example, I am going to be using the chip from a security key fob. This kind of chip is normally used to unlock doors in an office building.
Glue both holds the chip in place and helps to protect it. The hardened glue acts as a shell. So feel free to use an excessive amount of glue. Just don't use a glue that greatly shrinks or expands when it cures. If one side changes shape faster than the other, then it can actually bend the chip and break it.
Once you have transplanted your RFID chip and the glue has fully cured, it is time to test it to make sure that it still works. If all went well, it will still function normally and you will be able to use just like a regular key fob.

Let it be known that amongst the furniture of the late Duke of Aerschot, there are about 2000 paintings in all kinds of colors by a variety of excellent masters, such as Albrecht Dürer, Lucas van Leyden, Jan Gossaert, Hieronymus Bosch, "Florus Daych," "Longue Pierre," Titian, Veronese, and others.

There's a common core of misconceptions that many readers of this blog will be accustomed to dispelling thanks to their interest in Shakespeare and Early Modern Europe. "O Romeo, Romeo, wherefore art thou Romeo?" doesn't mean "Where'd you go, Romeo?!" Historic window glass didn't "flow" to become thicker at the bottom over time.

I try to avoid the mainline because it's very difficult to defend. White has a thematic Knight sacrifice that is pretty much killing. However, in this game, played at one day per move, I just sort of drifted into it. I kept thinking "play another mainline move, he probably won't know the correct reply". Unfortunately he did and things soon became very difficult.
Bear in mind that this game was played as part of a non-thematic tournament, at one day per move, twenty-two games starting simultaneously.
Feel free to comment, make suggestions or improve my play. I hope you enjoyed the game.
11.b4 is simply bad, 11...Bb7 has to be played.
After 13.Nf5 Black's position is an ugly mess, only a person with strong S-M tendencies would like to play it.
Please, consider playing something simpler as black, and leave the Najdorf where it belongs: to the chess professionals.
Interesting game, but I'll leave comments on 11...b4 to the "professionals"
I was surprised at White's 14. Bh4 though. Having put the Knight on f5, 14.exd5 was surely a better move for White.
yeah after 13.Nf5, i can hardly see any amateur on the black side defending it properly.
What does "properly" mean in the context of an "amateur"?
Are you saying that a professional could defend it?
We've already been told by IM pfren that White is winning after 13.Nf5, but in fact the OP defended it "properly" and went on to win the game.
I'd rather say that white didn't handle this "properly"- e.g. after 14.ed5 (instead of 14.Bh4) 14...hg5 15.Rxe7+ Kf8 16.fg5 it seems that the game will not last long.
Agreed, I already made that point in my post #3, but was interested to know whether our 'random' comrade had further pearls of wisdom to bestow...

When Jeremiah Couldn't Take More Bullying, He Took His Life
At 14, Jeremiah towered over his classmates. His size and his struggle with a learning disability made Jeremiah a target for bullying.
Five years ago, he took his own life.
Since Jeremiah's death, his father, Jeff Lasater, has devoted himself to preventing bullying of special-needs kids.
"Jeremiah was a kid that was 6'6", 320 pounds. He had a tough time growing up sometimes. ... He was kinda left out a lot of ways," Lasater says. "Really enjoyed photography, football. And if he thought a friend was in trouble, he walked 20 miles to find that friend, you know. I'm very proud that he was my son."
Jeremiah had been bullied since middle school. Lasater says he would tell the school what was going on, but nothing really came of it.
"Me and my wife, we talked about pulling him out, and Jeremiah didn't want to do that," Lasater says. "So he went to high school, and within a month ... he decided that was it."
Oct. 20, 2008, Lasater called his son and asked him if he had done his chores.
"He said, 'Yeah, I did. ... I love you, Dad.' And that's the last time I heard from him," Lasater says.
He later shot himself in a bathroom stall at school during lunch.
"That day, his glasses were destroyed, he was de-pantsed, food thrown on him, called a bunch of names," Lasater says. "Just enough that he couldn't take anymore."
He says the grief never goes away.
"The guilt, you'll always have. I was Jeremiah's parent," Lasater says. "I was supposed to be his protector, so I'm the one that's responsible for that action. You know, people say, 'Well, time heals everything.' Not when it comes to this."

The Venezuelan Oil Crisis
In June 2004, the price of oil reached $42.33 a barrel-the highest point ever in 21 years of trading on the New York Mercantile Exchange-pushing average U.S. gasoline prices to more than $2 per gallon. The surge had numerous causes, including market speculation, shortfalls in the U.S. capacity for refining crude oil, higher Chinese demand, and insecurity in the Middle East. The root of the crisis, however, lay closer to home: in Venezuela, where a general strike in late 2002 and early 2003 had severely constricted the flow of oil and gasoline for several months.
For the first time, the U.S. oil supply was significantly disrupted by strife in a region other than the Middle East. The Venezuelan strike was also the first disruption not caused by a war, revolution, or embargo, but rather by a slow, debilitating political standoff. It came at a particularly bad time for the United States, combining with civil unrest in Nigeria and the U.S. invasion of Iraq several months later. And it highlighted the challenges Washington faces in responding to new threats to its oil supply.
Of course, the U.S. management of the crisis in Venezuela could have been significantly better. Distracted by the Iraq debate and planning for the war, U.S. officials did not focus sufficiently on events in Venezuela prior to the strike. When they did take note, both Washington and the oil industry misread Venezuela's political situation and underestimated the impact the showdown there would have on the flow of oil.

For the Industry, Less to Celebrate at the Grammys
Published: February 25, 2002
(Page 2 of 2)
But several music managers said complaints of piracy were being used as a smoke screen by recording companies, which they faulted for having failed to nurture new and innovative acts while hewing to the corporate cost-cutting demands of the big-media recording companies, which, besides Warner, include Bertelsmann's BMG Entertainment, the EMI Group, Sony Music Entertainment and Vivendi Universal's Universal Music Group.
''Everyone wants quick profits, the talent is not given the time to mature,'' said John Marx, senior vice president for contemporary music at the William Morris talent agency. ''Often you get single songs, not great albums. Everyone wants results right away. Talent doesn't grow and blossom that way.''
The sense of vulnerability within the record business was pointedly underlined last month when Mariah Carey was paid $49 million by EMI, including $21 million she was paid last spring, to walk away from her contract. Even though Ms. Carey had had more hit singles than any other female artist, her recent album and film failed. Similarly, stars from earlier eras, like David Bowie, Anita Baker, Sinead O'Connor and Rod Stewart, have left their labels.
Donald S. Passman, who is Ms. Carey's lawyer and also represents Janet Jackson, Tina Turner and the group REM, among others, said the industry was grappling with ''enormous changes.''
The rebellion against the recording companies is led by some unlikely militants -- rock and rap stars who have earned millions of dollars a year. Performers in Tuesday evening's protest concerts are expected to include Courtney Love, the Eagles, Billy Joel, Stevie Nicks, Sheryl Crow, the Dixie Chicks, No Doubt, Beck, Eddie Vedder and Trisha Yearwood.
On one level, the performers are seeking a change in California labor law that would limit recording contracts to seven years rather than a specific number of albums. Recording companies oppose the change, saying that there would be no incentive to invest in artist development if another company reaped the benefits after seven years.
More significant -- and far more delicate for the music labels -- is the demand to end what Ms. Love has called ''the unconscionable and unlawful'' business tactics of the record companies. Ms. Love and other members of the coalition say the industry's accounting practices hide company profits and shortchange the performers on royalties.
Ms. Love began the revolt in 1999 when she and her band, Hole, sought to break their long-term contract with Universal Music, the industry leader. The company responded with a lawsuit saying that Ms. Love owed Universal five more albums.
Ms. Love, who sued the company early last year, has the money for a long legal fight. In addition to her own lucrative career, she controls the estate and catalog of her late husband, the Nirvana star Kurt Cobain, whose music still brings in millions of dollars each year.
Universal has said that Ms. Love's lawsuit is a ''meritless, inflammatory diatribe'' designed to ''attract media attention.''
In an e-mail message, Ms. Love defended her case. ''Contracts are so complex and contradictory that artists have absolutely no idea what royalties they're due or even how many records they've actually sold,'' she wrote. ''The court in my case has ordered Universal to hand over the kind of manufacturing and accounting records that no artist has ever been allowed to see. We haven't seen them yet because Universal is stalling but those documents will prove what artists have known for years about royalty rip-offs.''
Three weeks ago, Ms. Love was among the well-known performers who, seeking a change in California labor law, lobbied members of the state legislature in Sacramento over what they called the recording companies' unfair control over their professional lives.
A Democratic state senator, Kevin Murray, who represents the Culver City area of Los Angeles, introduced legislation last month that would essentially shorten contracts for recording acts. The recording industry has unleashed a lobbying campaign against the bill, saying it would force record companies to leave California, which could result in the loss of 25,000 jobs.
On Wednesday night, of course, once the house lights go down and the music starts at the Grammy show at the Staples Center, the audience and the stars are unlikely to be worrying about their next jobs.
Danny Goldberg, for one, a longtime recording executive who now runs Artemis Records, a top independently distributed label, said the industry would work through its problems. He bases his hopes on the next generation of fans, who he says are starting younger than ever, thanks to cable networks like Nickelodeon and the Disney Channel.
''They get audiences as young as 6, playing Britney Spears and the Backstreet Boys,'' Mr. Goldberg said. He predicted that this young audience would create its own music, its own icons.
''A lot of people have the illusion that the music now is less important, less vital than when they were kids,'' Mr. Goldberg said. ''A lot of people say, 'Bring back the Beatles; bring back Nirvana.' Well, they really want to bring back their youth.''

Charlize Theron in a Current/Elliott Denim Shirt
Charlize Theron was seen leaving a local LA salon in a double denim outfit. She wore a Current/Elliott denim shirt layered over a tee and paired it with jeans. I like how Charlize left this shirt open and layered over another shirt, it's larger size makes it fit a bit more like a jacket than a shirt.
A few days after this was taken, Charlize debuted a new hair style, a shaved head! I wonder if she did it for an upcoming role? Buy Current/Elliott online at Singer22.com.

Charlize Theron in Current/Elliott
Charlize Theron catches a flight out of LAX wearing a pair of Current/Elliott skinny jeans with a gray blazer and white tee. Charlize was headed to NYC to appear on the Today show to promote her latest film, Snow White and The Huntsman.
It's been a while since we've seen Charlize out in Current/Elliott. She's been wearing a lot of different trends lately, but I love how effortless this outfit is! Buy Current/Elliott online at SSENSE.
Charlize Theron in Henry & Belle
Charlize Theron avoids the paparazzi as she fills up her parking meter before heading into a hair salon. Charlize has been quite busy over the past few weeks between juggling her role as a new mom and promoting her latest film, Snow White and the Huntsman. She also has two films premiering this summer, so I imagine she'll be keeping busy with promotions.
I absolutely love Charlize's outfit, she always looks so chic and put together. She wore a pair of Henry & Belle Super Skinny ankle jeans in superior wash, with a white silk blouse and some tan Isabel Marant pumps. What do you think of her look? You can buy these jeans online from Henry & Belle by clicking here.

Charlize Theron in Double Denim
Charlize Theron made her way out of her New York City hotel and arrived at JFK airport, but didn't seem to be in much of a good mood. Sometimes I think it must be so weird having people follow you wherever you go.
Charlize wore a double denim outfit which consisted of a pair of dark blue Henry & Belle skinny jeans and a lighter washed denim shirt. This definitely seems like a comfy ensemble to fly in, plus it looks really nice. I'm just not a huge fan of the boots, I would prefer flats in a nude shade I think. Buy Henry & Belle on their website here.

Physical activity and keeping a healthy weight can help you take care of your diabetes and prevent diabetes problems. Physical activity helps your blood glucose,* also called blood sugar, stay in your target range.
Physical activity also helps the hormone insulin absorb glucose into all your body's cells, including your muscles, for energy. Muscles use glucose better than fat does. Building and using muscle through physical activity can help prevent high blood glucose. If your body doesn't make enough insulin, or if the insulin doesn't work the way it should, the body's cells don't use glucose. Your blood glucose levels then get too high, causing diabetes.
Starting a physical activity program can help you lose weight or keep a healthy weight and keep your blood glucose levels on target. Even without reaching a healthy weight, just a 10 or 15 pound weight loss makes a difference in reducing the risk of diabetes problems. More information about how to prevent diabetes problems is provided in the NIDDK health topic, Prevent Diabetes Problems.
*See the Pronunciation Guide for tips on how to say the words in bold type.
Before you start a physical activity program, you should
Talk with your health care team. Your health care team may include a doctor, nurse, dietitian, diabetes educator, and others. Always talk with your health care team before you start a new physical activity program. Your health care team will tell you a target range for your blood glucose levels.
People with diabetes who take insulin or certain diabetes medicines are more likely to have low blood glucose, also called hypoglycemia. If your blood glucose levels drop too low, you could pass out, have a seizure, or go into a coma. Physical activity can make hypoglycemia more likely or worse in people who take insulin or certain diabetes medicines, so planning ahead is key. It's important to stay active. Ask your health care team how to stay active safely. More information is provided in the NIDDK health topic, Hypoglycemia.
Physical activity works together with healthy eating and diabetes medicines to prevent diabetes problems. Studies show that people with type 2 diabetes who lose weight with physical activity and make healthy changes to their eating plan are less likely to need diabetes and heart medicines. Ask your health care team about your healthy eating plan and all your medicines. Ask if you need to change the amount of medicine you take or the food you eat before any physical activity.
More information is provided in the NIDDK health topics:
Talk with your health care team about what types of physical activity are safe for you, such as walking, weightlifting, or housework. Certain activities may be unsafe for people who have low vision or have nerve damage to their feet.
Make copies of the table of questions and topics in the "My Physical Activity Planning Tools" section to take with you when you visit your health care team. Write down the answers on the table of questions and topics.
Plan ahead. Decide in advance what type of physical activity you'll do. Before you start, also choose
To make sure you stay active, find activities you like to do. If you keep finding excuses not to be physically active, think about why:
Find an exercise buddy. Many people find they are more likely to be physically active if someone joins them. Ask a friend or family member to be your exercise buddy. When you do physical activities with a buddy you may find that you
Being active with your family may help everyone stay at a healthy weight. Keeping a healthy weight may prevent them from developing diabetes or prediabetes. Prediabetes is when the amount of glucose in your blood is above normal yet not high enough to be called diabetes.
Decide how you'll track your physical activity. Write down your blood glucose levels and when and how long you are physically active in a record book. You'll be able to track your progress and see how physical activity affects your blood glucose. You can find tools to help track your daily activities at www.ndep.nih.gov.
You can find tools to help track your daily activities at www.ndep.nih.gov.
Decide how you'll reward yourself. Reward yourself with a nonfood item or activity when you reach your goals. For example, treat yourself to a movie or buy a new plant for the garden.
Many kinds of physical activity can help you take care of your diabetes. Even small amounts of physical activity can help. You can measure your physical activity level by how much effort you use.
Doctors suggest that you aim for 30 to 60 minutes of moderate to vigorous physical activity most days of the week. Children and adolescents with type 2 diabetes who are 10 to 17 years old should aim for 60 minutes of moderate to vigorous activity every day.
Your health care team can tell you more about what kind of physical activity is best for you. They can also tell you when and how much you can increase your physical activity level.
Light physical activity. Light activity is easy. Your physical activity level is light if you
Moderate physical activity. Moderate activity feels somewhat hard. Your physical activity level is moderate if you
Vigorous physical activity. Vigorous, or intense, activity feels hard. Your physical activity level is vigorous if you
Not all physical activity has to take place at the same time. You might take a walk for 20 minutes, lift hand weights for 10 minutes, and walk up and down the stairs for 5 minutes.
Breaking the physical activity into different groups can help. You can
Aerobic exercise is activity that uses large muscles, makes your heart beat faster, and makes you breathe harder. Doing moderate to vigorous aerobic exercise for 30 to 60 minutes a day most days of the week provides many benefits. You can even split up these minutes into several parts.
Doing moderate to vigorous aerobic exercise for 30 to 60 minutes a day most days of the week provides many benefits.
Talk with your health care team about how to warm up and cool down before and after you exercise. Start slowly, with 5 to 10 minutes a day, and add a little more time each week. Try

Strength training is a light to moderate physical activity that builds muscle and keeps your bones healthy. When you have more muscle and less fat, you'll burn more calories because muscle burns more calories than fat, even between exercise sessions. Burning more calories can help you lose and keep off weight.
Whether you're a man or a woman, you can do strength training with hand weights, elastic bands, or weight machines two to three times a week. You can do strength training at home, at a fitness center, or in a class. Start with a light weight and slowly increase the size of your weights as your muscles become stronger.
You can do strength training with hand weights, elastic bands, or weight machines two to three times a week to build muscle.
Stretching exercises are a light to moderate physical activity that both men and women can do. For example, yoga is a type of stretching that focuses on your breathing and helps you relax. Your health care team can suggest whether yoga is right for you.
Even if you have problems moving or balancing, certain types of yoga can help. For example, chair yoga has stretches you can do when sitting in a chair. When you stretch, you increase your flexibility, lower your stress, and help prevent sore muscles.
Chair yoga has stretches you can do when sitting in a chair.
Increase daily activity by spending less time watching TV or at the computer. Try these simple ways to add light, moderate, or vigorous physical activities in your life every day:
Take the stairs instead of the elevator.
Your health care team can help you decide the best time of day for you to do physical activity based on your daily schedule, healthy eating plan, and diabetes medicines.
If you have type 1 diabetes, try not to do vigorous physical activity when you have ketones in your blood or urine. Ketones are chemicals your body might make when your blood glucose levels are too high and your insulin level is too low. If you are physically active when you have ketones in your blood or urine, your blood glucose levels may go even higher.
Light or moderate physical activity can help lower blood glucose if you have type 2 diabetes and you don't have ketones. Ketones are rare in people with type 2 diabetes. Ask your health care team whether you should be physically active when your blood glucose levels are high.
