LOCKPORT – The Common Council this week took another step toward an anticipated package on energy-efficiency upgrades to be funded by the New York Power Authority.
The Council voted to accept the authority's proposal to spend $17,057 on designs for the planned work. Last year, the city had given the authority the green light to spend $9,035 on a feasibility study.
If the work is eventually done, the estimated cost will be $871,778, the study said. The Power Authority would pay for that, and the city would reimburse the authority for the work by turning over a share of the savings the projects is expected to achieve.
The study estimates the total payback period at 12.2 years.
"Obviously, what it shows is, there would be significant energy savings," Alderman Kenneth M. Genewick said.
Norman D. Allen, city director of engineering and public works, said the city would have to repay the authority $26,000 if for some reason it decided not to go ahead with the construction.
Plans call for installation of more energy-efficient lights and improved insulation in all city-owned buildings, as well as conversion of the City Hall hot water boiler from electricity to natural gas.
Allen said the boiler, which was installed when the building opened almost 40 years ago, needs to be replaced anyway.
"It's a way for us to get a new boiler, virtually for free," Allen said.
The city started down the path toward these projects in September 2011 by approving the authority's proposal for an energy audit.
Allen said he expects that if the projects are done, the Power Authority would select the contractor, which might not be a local company.

WARREN - Down 7 at the half, Crestview was in a very good position to gain a victory against the defending Division V state champs on Saturday at Mollenkopf Stadium.
Winners of 26 straight, Kirtland had a good idea how it was going to play out.
"I told the players (at halftime) 'When you run the ball as much as we do, typically you run it better in the second half'" Kirtland coach Tiger Laverde said. "The power game works better as the game goes on. I think we wore them down. In the second half we had some long sustained drives that broke their back. The time of possession in the second half was a lot to a little."
After Crestview ran just four offensive plays from scrimmage in the third quarter there was little doubt how it was going to go as Kirtland stuck a 28-14 result on the board to move onto the regional final. The second-ranked Hornets (12-0) will meet Ursuline at 7 p.m. Saturday at a site to be determined. Ursuline beat Cuyahoga Heights 44-15 in Saturday's other Division V, Region 17 game. The Irish are the last team to beat the Hornets.
Fifth-ranked Crestview ended its season with an 11-1 mark and also broke the mark for the most points scored (628) by any Columbiana County team in a single season.
"We made some plays in the first half, but we had some penalties and other mistakes," Crestview coach Paul Cusick said. "At this level you can't do that. For instance, we had that touchdown called back on an illegal formation call. We had not had that called against us all year. We did some things poorly tonight, but a lot of it has to do with who we were playing. They're a good football team and your margin for error is very little."
Down 7-0 after a Damon Washington 54-yard touchdown run, the Rebels nearly answered when Collin Gilbert hit Nick Blower on what was thought to have been a 13-yard touchdown strike on the first play of the second quarter. The flag was for an illegal formation. The drive resulted in a 33-yard missed field goal. A play later, Kaleb Baker recovered a fumble at the 20, but the Rebels came up dry again.
"I just thought I guess I have to go back and do it again," Blower said after those chances fell a part.
Blower didn't get back into the end zone until there was 35 seconds left in the half and the Rebels down 14-0. Crestview's Dylan Douglass recovered a fumble on the Hornets' 28 with 19 seconds left, but there was not enough time to steal an extra touchdown going into the half.
"If we could have capitalized on that it would have been a whole different game," Blower said.
Blower was the Rebels' lone consistent offensive threat as he rushed for 102 yards on 19 carries, going over the 2,000-yard rushing mark for the season in the process. In the second half, he was limited to 10 rushing yards as the Hornets chewed clock.
"Kirtland is just a good football team," Crestview senior Dimitri Gregory said. "They're straight power football and strong up front. Their backs were hard runners and they were really quick guys. There's no doubt they're winning state this year."
Damon Washington rushed the ball 11 times for 121 yards to lead the Hornet attack. The senior, who is drawing attention from Mid-American Conference schools, was playing with an injured shoulder and was limited at times - especially in the second half.
"The feeling at halftime was 'Let's go, let's pick it up on defense and have a stop here,'" Gregory said. "We didn't come out and execute. We didn't come out and use our speed. We had too many people worried about the last play. We can't have that."
The Hornets' started the second half with a 12-play, 67-yard drive which ended in a Adam Hess 5-yard touchdown run with 6:48 left in the third. Crestview got the ball back and went four and out before the Hornets mounted a 12-play, 39-yard drive which resulted in a 33-yard missed field goal at the 9:24 mark of the fourth quarter.
Gilbert, who was 0 for 12 passing in the first half, threw an interception after the missed field goal and Sam Kukura cashed it in with a 25-yard touchdown run to make it 28-7 with 7:55 left in the game. Gilbert threw another interception before completing his first pass to Gregory on the last drive of the game. He capped the scoring with an 8-yard strike to Matt Hardenbrook with 16 seconds left in the game to make it 28-14.
"Our defense played a little bit better this week, but their line was still very good," Gregory said. "They were tough up front and getting too much push on our defensive line."
Crestview wasn't too stunned regarding the result following the game and thought it was another important lesson on what needs to be done to get to the next level.
"In coaches meetings at the beginning of the season we were hoping for 8-2, 7-3," Cusick said. "Our guys worked extremely hard and grew up fast. Hopefully we can take the next step. We have to have a great offseason."

Congratulations to our September Advocates of the Month!
This month we honor Sue Bouzounis, Kim Marrelli, Teresa O'Connor, Karen Vorhies and Shirley Belknap who all have done an amazing job collecting signed postcards for our Postcards for Parity Program. According to Kim,
"Helping out with the Postcards for Parity Program was a no-brainer. This issue has the potential to affect all MM patients. To me, treating all cancer treatments equally is just common sense. When I explain the issue in these terms, people just naturally want to help." Read these Rockstars' tips for collecting postcards here.
Missed the Advocacy Webinar? Have no Fear; we've got it here. A lot of fun was had as we walked through the 10 Steps to Building a Relationship with your Legislator this Election Season. Watch it today!
Do you live in Atlanta or the surrounding areas?
This December we will be hosting our 3rd Annual Advocacy Training at ASH. We are excited to be on the ground with advocates from Georgia to build the base for a strong Georgian Action team. This year we will go over the basics of advocacy and discuss the current political landscape for cancer patients post the 2012 elections.

And just when I was getting the hang of it. My first season as a farmer's market vendor is coming to an end. Partly because of the calendar, partly because of the weather. Three weeks of the Capitol View Market left. This has been a great thing. I really like the other vendors at our little market, and the people that are behind it all are awesome people. And a big thanks to all the folks that come out to support the concept of sustainable agriculture. Eating fresh food that is still alive does make a difference, and going organic is not easy, but worth it. It sounds like our market manager Becky Paris will be retiring after this season. She is a very cool person and will be missed. Time to get the hen house ready for a long cold winter. I want to make sure the "girls" are comfy cozy so they can do their thing all winter long.

This year's growing season continues to try and do my garden in. First it was a battle against the super hot, super dry conditions all summer. Now it's an early September frost. I know lots of people dodged the frost bullet this week...but not me. It's the end of my beloved basil crop. Frost also nipped my squash plants and tomatoes to a lesser degree...not good. I'm finally getting the hang of the Farmer's Market thing...and now this. Oh well.
Had some real fun at the Willy Street Fair this past weekend. Good party. The food...really good. Especially dig those Chinese bun things from Umami Ramen and Dumpling Bar. We shared a couple of them. One stuffed with Korean Bar-B-Que, and another with a spicy tofu set up. Both were great. Waded into the crowd with Ziggy, my 60 pound poodle, and his best pal Derby, my daughter's five pound Yorkie/Terrier mix. Both made it through with relative ease...with the exception of the stops we had to make for the people that wanted to see Derby close up. She is a cutie to be sure. No lap dog, though. She was on the ground on her leash the entire time. And once again I have to say...Zig is the best dog I've ever known. Good boy!
Friday 9/14/12
Heading over to the Willy Street Fair this weekend. T and I always have a blast. This year...like all other years, there'll be a ton of cool stuff to do (and eat). This is my favorite time of year, not just because the temperature has dropped below the hide-scorching levels we saw this year, but also because it's tomato time. I am canning again this weekend. Hit the Bloody Mary mix hard last weekend...so this weekend it'll be juice, jam and slow-roasted. And of course it's a must that I sample some of last weekend's results. Yummy.
Thursday, 9/6/12
The one upside to not seeing your close family for a long time...is that when you do...it's awesome! That was the case over the long Labor Day weekend. My sis and brother-in-law and all the kids came out to our camp site at Bong Recreational Area when we pulled in Friday night. Got there after dark so it was kinda interesting setting up. Once we did, though, we lit a campfire and had a great time. Fact is, we sat and laughed and talked till 3 Saturday morning! Recalling all the crazy stuff we did when we were young, and remembering how equally crazy my mom and sister were. Those were the days, man. When I finally hit the hay Saturday morning, I realized I had been up a straight 24 hours! The day starts early in Radio-Land. It was worth it, though. Gotta make sure I get down there more often.

Citizen participation and guidance is essential for correctional practices inside and outside institutions. The Ohio Department of Rehabilitation and Correction has embraced the needs related to offenders returning home from correctional settings and as such one strategy is the implementation of Citizen Circles.
Citizen Circles create partnerships that promote positive interaction and accountability for offenders upon release. Circle members address risks that contribute to criminal activity by taking ownership of the solution. It is an opportunity for citizens to communicate expectations for successful reentry and help offenders recognize the harm their behavior has caused others. Offenders are able to make amends and demonstrate their value and potential to the community.
Offenders and their families develop relationships with members of the community and together develop a plan to help the offender become accepted as a productive citizen and member of the community. The Citizen Circle helps offenders understand being a positive community member demands responsibility and obligation.
The Citizen Circle creates an environment fostering acceptance and focuses on offender's personal strengths. A focus on the future rather than the past, and giving back through community service and contributions are key elements for success. Offenders seek involvement with a Citizen Circle voluntarily. The Citizen Circles meet on a regular basis to discuss offender progress, review plans, interview new applicants, admit new members and to discharge both successful and unsuccessful offenders.

Hunter Bailey has been involved in the Jersey Shore branch YMCA since he was a toddler in the child care program and, most recently, as an adolescent participant in the Brick House after-school program.
Hunter has been fighting a battle with his weight. He and his mother have met with a pediatrician and a nutritionist at Geisinger Medical Center in Danville to come up with a plan to help Hunter gain control of his weight. He has been attending regular check-ups, where he is weighed and discusses his current diet and his activity level with a specialist.
Hunter was very excited to return to the Brick House program last year. He comes to the Y every day after school and participates in fun games and group activities with friends.
According to child care Director Corinne Amrom, the Brick House offers a variety of activities, including open gym, snack, social interaction and the opportunity to work on homework.
Hunter even has initiated activities when there is a break in the action. His favorite thing to do is play basketball. In fact, he was very anxious for the Y's winter youth basketball league to begin so he could put his practice during the Brick House program to use.
Hunter is able to stay active and work on his weight management plan by attending the Brick House every day during the school year.
"With open access to the gym, including basketball and football, along with interaction with our skilled staff, kids like Hunter are able to have fun while staying fit," Amrom said.
The program provides Hunter with the opportunity to get involved in fun physical activities and reach his goals. Without Brick House, he would be limited in the level of activity he is able to perform. Hunter and his mother are very pleased in the way the program and the Y have kept him active and helped him to overcome his struggle with managing his weight. He takes part in about two hours of physical activity every day.
The Jersey Shore branch YMCA is able to offer a program like Brick House due to the generosity of Lycoming County United Way. Hunter is just one of the many youth members of the Jersey Shore community who has experienced the positive impacts the program offers.
"Attendance at Brick House is open to any student who registers in sixth grade and up," Amrom said. "It is held Monday through Friday from after school to 6 p.m. Attendance depends on the weather and school activities, but this fall we have seen an average of 30 to 40 kids, though more are expected when fall sports end and the construction of the new teen room here at the Y is complete.
Brick House, she added, is looking forward to opening the new addition. With the addition of the room, participants will have access to quiet homework assistance, the gym and a lounge area with games.
In addition, the Jersey Shore YMCA will co-host the Children's Community Fall Festival Halloween Party for children up to age 12 from 6 to 8 p.m. Oct. 30. Door prizes and costume judging will be held, as well as games and activities.
The Brick House is proud to partner with Lycoming County United Way and provide an encouraging, enjoyable outlet for the youth of the area. LCUW Executive Director Scott N. Lowery said the feeling is mutual.
"Some of the programs receiving United Way funding are self-explanatory just by their name," Lowery said. "But the Jersey Shore YMCA Brick House program has nothing to do with an external structure, rather it is most important for what goes on in the inside of that building every day.
"The Brick House program truly serves as a community center for the young people of Jersey Shore. They have a proven track record of preparing youth and teens for success in life through activities that build self-esteem and life skills. They've endured some difficulties but everything they do is done to help the young people of the Jersey Shore area to grow, learn and feel better about themselves."
It is unfortunate, he added, that in way too many instances society seems to be trying to fix things after something happens rather than taking effective measures to prevent things from happening.
"The Brick House programs are extending their efforts to the latter to serve their community," Lowery said. "Several hundred kids continue to benefit from taking part in the various Brick House programs. Helping young people stay on the right track of life is an important investment for our United Way to make."
Consider giving to Lycoming County United Way campaign this year. The affects of your donation reach neighbors in your community like Hunter, who has found great value in the programs provided by the Jersey Shore YMCA Brick House.

DALLAS � The Dallas Stars were determined not to let this one get away.
Derek Roy, Eric Nystrom and Jaromir Jagr each had a goal and an assist to lead the Stars to a 5-2 victory over the Colorado Avalanche on Saturday night.
In the teams� last meeting on Wednesday night in Denver, Dallas gave up a 2-0 lead in the first and a 3-2 advantage in the third en route to a 4-3 loss. This time, the Stars were able to put together a strong effort from start to finish.
�I think it was probably one of our most complete games that we�ve played,� said Dallas� Cody Eakin, who also scored. �We�ve been trying to work on playing 60 minutes, and there were times that they came on strong, but we stood with it.�
Rookie Jordie Benn got his first NHL goal, and younger brother Jamie Benn had three assists to help the Stars win their second consecutive game following a 1-4-1 stretch in which they were outscored 23-10.
The Stars moved up from 10th place to eighth in the Western Conference, jumping ahead of San Jose and Columbus for the conference�s final playoff position.
Kari Lehtonen, making his 11th consecutive start, stopped 33 shots for Dallas two nights after getting 40 saves in a 2-0 win at Los Angeles.
�I thought we got some good goaltending again, and we got some timely goals from our top players,� Stars coach Glen Gulutzan said. �I thought that Colorado played real hard, but we got goals at the right time.�
Paul Stastny had a goal and an assist, and P.A. Parenteau also scored for the Avalanche, who lost their ninth game in a row on the road (0-6-3).
�It�s tough to put a finger on it,� said Colorado�s Matt Duchene, who had an assist. �We approach them the same way that we approach a home game. I don�t know why we�re struggling so much on the road. It�s disappointing.�
Roy, who had just one assist in his previous seven contests, briefly left the ice after taking a slap shot off his left foot late in the first period but returned for the second.
The Stars built a 4-0 second period lead, chasing starting goalie Semyon Varlamov, before Colorado pulled to 4-2. However, Dallas managed to lock down the victory in the third period this time.
�We talked about that before the game � how they came back on us because we didn�t work hard enough, and we didn�t focus enough in the second and third periods, and (Saturday) was a statement game. We put a whole 60 minutes together,� Roy said.
Varlamov wound up with 11 saves on 15 shots in 24:37, and Jean-Sebastien Giguere stopped 15 of 16 shots in 35:23.
The Avalanche, who are last in the West after losing five of their last six games while getting outscored 28-15, were without captain Gabriel Landeskog, who was a last-minute scratch with a torso injury.
Dallas jumped on top just 34 seconds into the opening period, as Roy got his fourth of the season after taking a nice backhand pass from Loui Eriksson and unleashing a wrist shot from the high slot that beat Varlamov over the glove.
�We�re getting scored on way too early and way too much right now,� Duchene said. �We�re playing catch-up all game long. We haven�t played with the lead in God knows how long, and it�s frustrating, that�s for sure. We can�t afford to put ourselves behind the eight-ball every game.�
The Stars made it 2-0 on a power play when Jordie Benn, skating in his 26th career game, found the back of the net at 9:57, banging home the rebound of Roy�s slap shot from the right point.
�A dream come true,� Benn said of the goal. �You always think about scoring a goal in the NHL, and it�s finally done, and hopefully, there�s many more to come.�
Colorado appeared to pull to within 2-1 with 3:08 remaining in the first when Duchene�s deflection of Parenteau�s wrist shot bounced past Lehtonen, but it was waved off when the officials determined that David Jones had interfered with Lehtonen on the play.
�The call on the non-goal is a missed goal,� Avalanche coach Joe Sacco said. �(The referee) is trying to find something there that�s absolutely not there. The goaltender�s out of his crease. (Jones) is not in the paint there and he calls the goal back. It�s the wrong call.
Nystrom extended Dallas� lead to 3-0 with his fourth goal of the season 58 seconds into the second period, and Eakin�s fifth goal at 4:37 of the second put the Stars up four.
That prompted Sacco to pull Varlamov in favor of Giguere.
Dallas nearly went up by five at 12:08 while on a power play when Jagr�s deflection of Jamie Benn�s shot bounced off Giguere�s pad and off the underside of the crossbar before landing in the crease.
Colorado snapped Lehtonen�s shutout streak at 102:35 when Parenteau connected on a one-timer from the left circle during a power play with 54.1 seconds left in the second.
Stastny made it 4-2 with his eighth goal just 1:37 into the final period, beating Lehtonen with a wrist shot from the left face-off circle.
However, the Stars restored their hold on the game when Jagr got his team-leading 13th goal of the season and third in the last three games at 6:44.

Steve Kerr has worn many hats over his career: NBA champion, NBA record holder, NBA team general manager, NBA TV analyst and celebrity golfer once again. He returns to Tahoe this year for the American Century Championship at Edgewood Tahoe Golf Course after a seven-year hiatus.
His absence from the celebrity golf tourney can be credited to his time as the Phoenix Suns president of basketball operations and general manager, from which he retired from in 2010. After he returned to broadcasting for TNT and contributing to the sports website Grantland - career moves he said have helped his golf game.
"It got better since I got into broadcasting, I'll tell you that. More time to work on it," Kerr said about his game. "I love playing, especially now that I'm 46. My knees have kind of made me quit basketball and tennis and anything that involves running.
"To come out and play golf with a bunch of great guys in the most beautiful setting you can imagine, it doesn't get much better," he added. "I'm just looking to not embarrass myself. I want to have fun and maybe play a good round or two. But for the most part I'm just here enjoying myself."
While at the ACC, Kerr fielded a few questions from the media about recent news in the NBA. There's been a big discussion, mainly between Kobe Bryant and Michael Jordan, as to which Olympic Dream Team is better, the 1992 team or 2012 team.
"Well, it's so hard to compare eras. The game is different now. Back then big players were more prominent. Now it's become a smaller game. So you look at the roster this year. There's basically one big guy on the team with Tyson Chandler. Back then I think they had, what, three 7-footers, dominant ones, with (Patrick) Ewing and David Robinson. So who knows? You throw it in a simulator and who knows what comes out," Kerr said. "But I'm partial to the '92 team. I think it's the greatest team ever assembled. You look at the weapons on that team, the fire power with Jordan and Scottie Pippen and Charles Barkley, in particular."
As mentioned above, Kerr was the GM of the Suns, which spanned for three years, and was asked about veteran point guard Steve Nash moving over to the Los Angeles Lakers.
"It's like (Derek) Jeter going to the (Boston) Red Sox. If you're a Phoenix Suns fan, it's hard to fathom seeing Steve in purple and gold," Kerr said. "But also when you let the emotion slip away you realize it's a great move for everybody. Lakers needed a point guard. Steve wanted to be on a really good team that had a chance.
"(Phoenix is) not really competing with the Lakers the next couple of years. Two firsts and two seconds, they get to kind of restock their war chest. It's a good move all around. It's just really hard to envision Steve wearing that uniform when they had so many battles together over the years."
Kerr's best finish in the tournament came in 2002 when he finished 35th. He also ended the tourney 37th in 2005. In 2003 and 2004 he had his worst finishes, ending the weekend at 47th and 50th, respectively.

9 Badass Lasers That Prove the Death Star Isn't Far Off
The purpose of science is to shine a light in the darkness, and lasers do it hard enough to set the darkness on fire.
Metaveld via Wikimedia Commons.
Enlightenment is awesome.
Lasers embody how technology allows everyone to benefit from the smart people. They've taken quantum mechanics, the single most mind-boggling science in existence, and put it to work in our supermarket checkouts. If you want to build supercomputers, set up a global communications network, trigger thermonuclear fusion, melt steel and weld flesh, lasers have you covered. They're like the Swiss Army Knife for people planning to attack the Justice League. Science has been kicking fiction's ass for several decades now, and lasers are how they pulled it off.
#9. Targeting Artificial Lightning
Lightning used to be so scary that people prayed to it, but when the modern world couldn't make up its mind whether to copy or steal it, we decided "Both!" Laser-triggered lightning (LTL), which we still can't believe isn't a D&D spell, is a technology that allows scientists to steer thunderbolts by laser-blasting the sky. Understand: When faced with towering thunderheads of heavenly power, the scientists' gut reaction is to pull a Han Solo and shoot first.
LucasArts, 20th Century Fox
This image is now required by law when using that phrase.
Scientists from Osaka University were triggering bolts with a crude CO2 laser system back in 1998, though it only worked well enough to be awesome, not practical. But laser science is the fastest-moving science in the last half century, and modern femtosecond pulse lasers have allowed them to control and direct lightning in the laboratory. Yes, the fact that scientists can make lightning in the laboratory is the incidental context in this death-metal apocalypse of a news story.
AIP Advances 2, 012151 (2012); doi: 10.1063/1.3690961
"You'll notice in c) that lasers can make even lightning straighten up and fly right. So, Senator, let's talk about funding."
French scientists have found a way to laser-designate Zeus's wrath. Lightning strikes occur when the potential difference between sky and Earth builds up enough to ionize the air, and ionizing air is what lasers do. So by lasering the air, the scientists create a path of least resistance for the lightning -- a priority lane for Thor. In tests, the system was able to steer lightning strikes away from otherwise guaranteed victims of Skyblasting and even redirect bolts that had already started to form. These laser lightning rods produce positive charge streamers -- the pre-lightning paths that both sound and destroy like Ghostbuster proton packs, 10 times faster than nature.
This system is intended to protect buildings more effectively than metal lightning rods. The ability to weaponize the gods the next time the sky darkens is presumably an incidental bonus.
#8. Human Laser Systems
Science fiction gives scientists a bad rap. Never mind how Marvel scientist can't go a week without exposing teenagers to mutagenic radiation; the real insult is that a clumsy victim of radiation exposure takes 30 seconds to discover some amazing side effect the scientists didn't. If there were real scientists in comics universes, their latest findings would be delivered by people twice as fast as the flash while their windows were washed by Spider-man. But in the real world, we only have living human laser components.
Nature Photonics 5, 406–410 (2011) doi:10.1038/nphoton.2011.99
Wait, "only"?
Scientists, presumably sick of having to stop working to go to the bathroom, genetically engineered human kidney cells with green fluorescent protein (GFP) to act as a laser gain medium. You only need a few external parts, which the scientists added, and you have living kidney cells emitting a directed laser beam. Which is weird because we were always told the X-Men were accidental.
20th Century Fox, Marvel
Now you know where Cyclops comes from, and why he's always pissing people off.
Professors Yun and Gather reported these results from Harvard Medical School, presumably in order to maintain the secret location of their subvolcanic secret base. The cells used are known as "immortal cell lines" because they don't die like most cells removed from humans. Because if there's anything we want to gift with laser power, it's something that is immortal, has only ever experienced human waste and was once a man.
#7. Bacteria
"No, wait, there is something else non-supervillains would want to give lasers even less than that!" That's what Yun and Gather said later the same year, when they gifted Escherichia coli with the same inhuman powers. The bacteria maintain their GFP during replication, meaning you can grow a biolaser gain colony. These colonies can work to lase together and can also heal themselves. Synthetic gain media degrade over time, but the living cells could grow more GFP to replace their losses. So basically, as soon as Doc Terror hears about this, the human race is doomed.
DC Comics, Centurions #4
He's just upset he can only have one laser kidney.
The emitted laser light contains information about the amplifying cell, and not just information like "It's a mutant and hates you." The cell is also undamaged by lasing. In fact, being able to fire energy blasts means they're probably better than they've ever been. The team is now investigating ways to include the rest of the components biologically, using bioluminescence as a pumping power source and thinking very hard about living mirrors. The long term aim is to use biolaser cells as an ultrafast man-machine interface, and to finally kill Captain America.
#6. The Most Powerful Laser Blast Ever
As well as having the most Cobra Commander of all possible names, the National Ignition Facility is the embodiment of human scientific awesomeness. We looked at the sun, the source of almost all life and energy on Earth, and decided "We could do that!" The sun is a gravity-powered fusion reactor with hydrogen compressed by 2 megazettatons of material, which is about 2 megazettatons more than we have on Earth. What we do have is more lasers than the Transformers.
NIF, Wikimedia Commons
"Uh, don't fire it up just yet, guys. Guys?"
The NIF's 192 lasers are precisely timed and amplified in the most sophisticated optical setup in the world. Earlier this month, they fired the most powerful laser blast in human history: 1.875 megajoules of focused ultraviolet light in 23 nanoseconds, delivering a power of 411 trillion watts. The rest of the United States put together only consumes half a trillion watts. (Though in fairness, the United States does last for slightly longer.) This record-breaking shot signals the beginning of full-power fusion experiments, working toward little things like limitless energy from seawater instead of compressed dead animals, no chance of meltdown and zero greenhouse pollution. If you're into that sort of thing.
#5. The Hottest Thing on Earth
X-rays can pass through solid objects, but X-ray lasers don't have to, because whatever they're pointed at isn't there any more. The Linac Coherent Laser Source (LCLS) is the world's most powerful XASER and every bit as incredible as it is made-up sounding. It recently created the hottest material on the planet, making a chunk of aluminum into a star in both "scientific fame" and "actual density and temperature."
University of Oxford, Sam Vinko
Also winning the 2012 Badass-Looking Equipment Award.
The target was heated to 2 million degrees. Not including the type of degree usually means the writer is an idiot, but at this level it really doesn't matter. Celsius and Kelvin only differ by about 300 degrees, and science doesn't use Fahrenheit for the same reason it doesn't use woolly mammoth skins to insulate the vacuum chamber. Fahrenheit is an obsolete scale invented by a visceral lunatic, based on salty water and "blood heat," with 64 degrees between blood and iced water only because it was easier for him to draw the little marks that way. When something's based on laziness, a hot body and salty fluids, it's porn, not science.
Wikimedia Commons
Seen here with the world's earliest and least-appealing fleshlight.
These hot dense plasmas will help us understand stars, planetary cores and even nuclear fusion. In fact, the only hotter place in the solar system is the heart of a star, and it's not like stars can fire lasers back at us.

A dispute over the ownership of two adult goats and three baby goats led to the arrest of a 62-year-old woman on Friday.
Sandra Brunoli turned herself in after learning of an active warrant for her arrest, police in Southington, Conn., said. She is charged with first-degree criminal trespass.
Brunoli says she took the two adult goats to a farm in August to be boarded temporarily. One of the goats gave birth to three baby goats since then, and Brunoli claims ownership of all five goats, police said.
The farm owner says the goats are his because Brunoli gave them to him, police said.
In late February, Brunoli entered the farm without the owner's permission and took all five goats, police said.

Aileen Marcello, a Ph.D. graduate student in the Biomedical Sciences Program at Marshall University, has been invited to present a poster at the International Symposium in Cerebral Blood Flow, Metabolism, and Function in Barcelona, Spain. She will present her research project entitled "Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor (VEGF) Signaling and Its Potential Role at the Blood Brain Barrier in Diabetes." This is Aileen's first time attending an international conference, which she learned of from Dr. Egleton, who has previously attended. You can download Aileen's research abstract at this link.
I recently interviewed Aileen to get her thoughts on attending, and the following is a transcript of that exchange.
Question: How did you learn about the conference, and what is its significance in your field?
Answer: I heard about the conference from Dr. Egleton, as he has been to this conference before. It is my first international conference so obviously I'm very excited. I will probably meet some familiar faces in Barcelona, as some of the experts in the blood brain barrier field will be there. Hence, this conference is significant in my field because of the blood brain barrier connection, but also it will give me an opportunity to see what other scientists are doing in the area of cerebrovascular research. This is especially important since I am a senior graduate student, and I'm sort of "testing the waters" as to where I may go when I "retire" from being a graduate student.
Question: What was the application process like?
Answer: The application process is fairly similar to other conferences. I had to submit an abstract, signifying that I was interested in attending the conference. The abstracts are pooled together and the committee will select abstracts to be included in the conference. So, acceptance of your abstract is an invitation to register for the conference, as not all abstracts are accepted. Upon registration, you have to submit a letter from the head of the department (Dr. Rankin) to show evidence that you are indeed a graduate student. After that, you can book your hotel through the conference website.
Question: How do you feel about being accepted and being able to travel to this conference?
Answer: It's an honor to be accepted to such a prestigous conference. I think this is one of the important conferences to attend in my area of research, and to go as a graduate student is exciting because it will surely give me avenues to think about when I pursue my career outside of graduate school.
Question: Will you be able to stay the full four days?
Answer: I will be gone all week!!! I leave on May 23 and arrive in Barcelona on the 24th. So that gives me a couple of hours to relax and enjoy the scenery. I believe I present on the 26th (have to double check on that) so I hope to experience more of Barcelona and enjoy some tapas.
Question: Will you be able to do any travel activities outside of the conference?
Answer: As in sight seeing? I hope so. I've been to Barcelona before so my plan is to go to the places I didn't have a chance to see. Picasso Museum!!!
Question: What are you hoping to bring back to Marshall from this experience?
Answer: I hope to get some fresh ideas on which direction to take my research.
Question: Is there anything else you'd like to say about this opportunity?
Answer: I AM TOTALLY EXCITED TO BE LEAVING THE AREA FOR A WEEK!!!

WAILUKU - Two new buildings, more than 250 parking stalls and an art terrace garden are all part of the Maui County administration's proposed plans to expand and better utilize its campus in Wailuku.
"This is a project we really need to work on for a long time," Mayor Alan Arakawa told council members on Friday. "This is a chance for all of us to start building for a very, very bright future for Maui County."
Managing Director Keith Regan said that having new buildings and creating more parking can alleviate many government inefficiencies and reduce the county's rent bill. The county spends about $3.2 million a year to rent office space, and county employees park in the Wailuku municipal lot several blocks away or move their cars every few hours to avoid being ticketed in timed street spaces. Currently, there are 266 employees on the waiting list for parking on county property.

Excavator operator Jeremy Betsill of Betsill Brothers Construction uses a hydraulic ram to crumble a section of a reinforced concrete pillar while demolishing the old Wailuku Post Office building Thursday morning. The structure built in 1959 may have been plagued by crumbling concrete facades and a leaky roof, but it was engineered to last. "I've never seen a building with so much rebar in my life," Betsill said. Wells Street is scheduled to be closed today from 10 a.m. to noon while the facade facing the street is pulled down. The demolition is expected to take three to four weeks, with another two weeks to fill in the hole and to complete the project.

Betsill Brothers President Dwayne Betsill surveys the scene Thursday afternoon. "The building is so well built, with so much rebar, we can't even pull down a beam by itself," he said. Betsill said that people have expressed concern about asbestos, and he wanted to assure the public that there is no more asbestos in the building and none is being released into the air.

Ronald Mendoza cuts thick reinforcing bar Thursday afternoon. The short-term plan is to turn the old Wailuku Post Office site into a parking lot. In the long term, plans are afoot to build an office building for county departments.

He added that over a year's time some employees may spend as much as an accumulated 60 days just commuting between county departments for business. These departments may be in another building a block away.
Regan's and Arakawa's remarks came as administration officials and a consultant from Group 70 International presented plans for the Kalana O Maui Campus Expansion project to the council's Budget and Finance Committee on Friday afternoon.
The construction cost for the two proposed buildings is an estimated $24 million each. One building will be at the old Wailuku Post Office site along Wells Street and the other will be behind the Kalana Pakui building along Kaohu Street.
The administration is seeking $1.5 million in permit and design funds for the first part of the project involving the old post office, and is proposing to use general obligation bonds.
Council Committee Vice Chairman Riki Hokama raised several issues regarding funding for the project. He questioned the timing of the request for the design funds, noting that the council's review of the budget is coming up and that funds could be allocated during that process.
There also is the economic uncertainty in the level of federal funding, due to the pending threat of sequestration - a series of automatic, across-the-board cuts in federal spending.
Budget Director Sandy Baz said that the loss of federal funds is "always a concern," but the timing is right to push ahead with the initial part of the project. Several leases for some department space expire in 2015, which is when administration officials hope to get the first building completed.
Hokama and committee Chairman Mike White said that they both wanted more information about the financial status of the county when the committee revisits the issue. White asked for additional information, including the total cost of the project along with leasing information for current rented spaces.
"The picture is nice, (but) this is the Budget Committee. We would like to see the numbers," White added.
Council Chairwoman Gladys Baisa also was concerned about the funding for the project, but overall seemed to approve of the concept.
"I like the idea," she said, noting how the creation of county parking will help ease that problem in Wailuku town.
"It's a great thing to see at last," she said of the project.
Council Member Mike Victorino said that he likes the plan but expressed concern about traffic and the narrow streets in the area.
Regan said that the new buildings will not necessarily bring more employees to Wailuku but would bring them all closer together.
The first part of the plan calls for six levels of office space and four levels of county employee and public parking (106 stalls) at the old Wailuku Post Office site, where workers are already demolishing the building. A temporary parking area is planned for the site prior to construction of the new building.
Proposed offices to be located in the building are the departments of finance, environmental management and housing and human concerns as well as information systems divisions.
Renovations of several floors of the Kalana O Maui building also are proposed in that part of the project.
The next part of the project revolves around the second building that will be two levels of offices and two-and-a-half levels of public and county parking (188 stalls) behind the Kalana Pakui building, along Kaohu Street. This part of the project also involves providing Americans with Disabilities Act access to the second floor of Kalana Pakui.
Regan noted that a piece of private property is sandwiched between a county lot behind Kalana Pakui and another county lot across Kaohu Street from the Ichiban Okazuya eatery and will need to be acquired. He said that the county is in preliminary negotiations with the landowner.
The building is proposed to house the public works and planning departments. An art terrace garden for the public and county employees to gather is proposed in between Kalana Pakui and the second building, and an optional project to have a "civic green," which would involve lengthening the grassy lawn in front of Kalana O Maui that could serve as a public and county employee gathering space.
There are additional plans for a $36 million renovation of Kalana O Maui, including its interior, exterior and electrical systems and mechanical and structural upgrades.
Plans also call for photovoltaic panels being used. This could include possibly creating an artistic PV roof at the entrance of Kalana O Maui. The roof could provide shade for the public and employees on breaks and lunch.
Outside the meeting, Regan said that administration officials have met with county workers and council members about the plans. He added that the administration would like a campus that has all its services in the same proximity.
"We had a vision from the mayor to make a long-term commitment to Wailuku town," he said.
No action was taken on the plan Friday.

Safety First... McLanahan Helps Customers Test For Hazardous Air Quality
McLanahan Corporation's Agricultural Division is assisting customers with farm safety. Earlier this year, we purchased equipment for air quality around manure processing systems.
On some farm visits McLanahan employees must enter areas contaminated with manure in order to perform evaluations or repairs. Our company was worried about employees and customers entering areas that may be hazardous to their health.
A meter was obtained for the employees to check for hazardous gases around manure processing systems. A representative of Mine Safety Appliance trained employees on the proper use of the meter. The meter is designed to detect oxygen levels, hydrogen sulfide, flammability of the air, and carbon monoxide present in the air.
In the field, McLanahan employees are able to explain the meter and the importance of checking an environment prior to entering. Customers are shown the various readings and what gasses are present.
McLanahan Ag Division is pleased to do its part to help make dairy farms a safer place to work.

Laressa Watlington/Colorado Public News
Nineteen-year-old Vesha Gilbert�s toothache had become so unbearable, she ended up where no one wants to be: Sitting in a dentist�s chair, cringing at the thought of having her decayed back molar pulled.
�I�m scared, but I�m glad I�m here,� she said. �It feels like somebody�s knocking me on the side of my mouth with a hammer, like, constantly, and it goes in and out like every five seconds.�
Gilbert had rushed to an urgent-care clinic for relief from her throbbing mouth, but doctors there couldn�t do anything, except send her to the dentist to have her tooth pulled.
Gilbert is not alone. Last year, Coloradans with dental complaints went to emergency rooms 39,000 times � even though they could have been pain-free if they had simply stayed on top of regular cleaning and maintenance, according to the Colorado Dental Association.
Making it worse, ER visits for dental problems cost $350 to $650, far more than a routine dental visit, according to a Colorado Public News price survey. And usually, the physicians can�t fix the tooth. They treat the infection and pain � and then send patients to a dentist.
Gilbert said that she, of all people, should never have ignored her teeth. She has dental insurance through her job at Walmart, and her mom is a dental hygienist.
�My mom always told me, and I was like ... �Mom, you know I�m grown, so ... � I was just being careless, I guess, not brushing and flossing.� Vesha says she wasn�t willing to give up sweets to save her teeth. Instead, she�s giving up a tooth.
Other patients who end up in the ER have no dental insurance and can�t afford to pay a dentist out of pocket, so they ignore tooth decay until it�s too late.
Numbers from the latest Colorado Health Access Survey, conducted by the Colorado Health Institute, show that 40 percent of Coloradans do not have dental insurance. The same percentage skipped going to the dentist last year.
Findings from the telephone survey of 10,352 households include:
Sixty percent of people older than age 65 have no dental insurance. (Medicare doesn�t cover dental care.)
More than half of Hispanics surveyed have no dental insurance. And 55 percent of Hispanic kindergartners in the state were found to have a cavity, compared to 32 percent of white children.
For many rural Coloradans, often there is no dentist nearby.
Dr. Chris Colwell, Denver Health Medical Center�s director of emergency medicine, said toothaches have become common in his ER.
�We, as the last resort, are seeing something pretty much every day, and almost every shift during the day,� he said.
Colwell says many of the patients he sees are on the weekends, when many dental offices are closed. He cited one patient who came in on a Sunday morning with infected gums, and no cash.
�The dentist wanted money up front,� Colwell said. So the man waited, and finally had to go to the ER.
Ignoring gums and teeth can lead to much more serious problems than a mouthful of pain and plaque, said Katya Mauritson, oral-health unit director for the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment.
�Last year, in another state, a healthy 24-year-old man went to the ER with tooth pain and he didn�t have medical or dental insurance,� Mauritson said. �He wound up only being able to fill the pain pills because that�s all he had money for. And then he wound up dying,� as the infection progressed to a brain abscess, she said.
Because people usually can�t see dental disease until it worsens, it is often called a �silent epidemic.� Prevention is key, says Ken Peters, president of the Colorado Dental Association. �We can�t drill our way out of this issue.�
Annual visits to the dentist also may catch early signs of nutritional deficiencies and even detect the presence of some cancers, the association said.
Dr. Louis Sullivan, a former secretary of Health and Human Services, is on a personal campaign to improve dental health and stop the unnecessary visits to ERs, which reached 830,000 in 2009 and cost well over $100 million nationally. �We have a major problem that can be preventable. We need to turn this around.�
Recently, officials have begun to act. State programs have helped get many low-income children insured. Gov. John Hickenlooper recently called dental health one of the state�s �10 winnable battles.� He has proposed adding funds for coverage of some adults on Medicaid, the government health insurance program for low-income people.
Last year, a bill to provide dental care to pregnant women on Medicaid had bipartisan support, but died in the year-end fight in the Legislature over civil unions.
With millions of taxpayer dollars covering many unneeded emergency room visits for toothaches, dental health is beginning to move off the back burner.
Vesha Gilbert says after this painful and expensive experience, she�ll be regularly flossing and brushing � and listening to her mother.
�I�m glad I�m taking care of this so that I can go back to work ... because a toothache keeping you from working ... that�s horrible.�
Colorado Public News, a nonprofit news organization, reports on issues of statewide interest. It partners with Colorado Public Television 12, Denver?s independent PBS station.

Football Team Headed to Beef 'O' Brady's Bowl
Ball State's football team has accepted an invitation to compete in the Beef 'O' Brady's Bowl St. Petersburg in Florida, Dec. 21, at 7:30 p.m. against the Conference USA East Division Champion UCF Knights.
The Cardinals and Knights will be televised on ESPN in a game played in Tropicana Field. This marks the fifth edition of the ESPN Regional Television owned bowl game from Tropicana Field.
Ball State finished the regular season with a 9-3 overall record and 6-2 mark in Mid-American Conference action. The nine wins ties for the third most victories in a single season in school history, while the six MAC victories are the most in a single season since the 8-0 mark in 2008. It marks only the second time since 1996 the Cardinals have won at least six league games in a season.
UCF finished the regular season with a 9-4 overall record and a 7-1 mark in Conference USA. The Knights suffered a 33-27 overtime loss to Tulsa in the Conference USA Championship Game after claiming the East Division title.
"Ball State is a hot team right now, winning six straight, including a road win over conference foe Toledo, which was ranked in the Top 25 at the time," said Brett Dulaney, Executive Director of the Beef 'O' Brady's Bowl St. Petersburg. "We look forward to providing a great bowl week experience for the team and their fans."
Ball State has won its last six games, marking its first six game winning streak since 2008. The Cardinals ended the regular season with wins in their final five MAC games and their final four road games.
"Ball State University is very excited to participate in the Beef 'O' Brady's Bowl St. Petersburg," said Bill Scholl, Director of Athletics for Ball State. "We have heard great things about this bowl and are sure it will be an enjoyable experience for our student-athletes, alumni and fans from all over the country. Ball State's football program is proud to represent the MAC at the bowl, and we are looking forward to the event."
Ball State ranks second in the MAC and 22nd in the nation in total offense with an average of 471.33 yards per game. The Cardinals are 23rd in rushing offense (214.25), 48th in passing offense (257.08) and 31st in scoring offense (35.00).
Head Coach Pete Lembo, who is in his second year with the Cardinals, took over a four-win squad following the 2010 season. He led Ball State to a 6-6 overall record in his first season in 2010 and this year's nine win total is the most wins since its 12-2 team in 2008.
"Our football program is extremely pleased to be representing the MAC at the Beef 'O'Brady's Bowl St. Petersburg," said Lembo. "We have had an outstanding season and are looking forward to allowing the fans of Florida and our fans across the country to see our exciting team. This is an honor for our football program and our university, and our fans and alumni are excited about the invitation."
The Cardinals are making their first bowl appearance since 2008 when they played Tulsa in the GMAC Bowl. Ball State has played in seven bowls, including back-to-back bowl games after the 2007 (International Bowl in Toronto, Canada) and 2008 seasons.
This will be the fourth meeting between Ball State and UCF. All three meetings took place while UCF was a member of the MAC (2002-04). The Cardinals, which own a 2-1 series advantage, scored a come-from-behind 21-17 win at home in the last matchup on November 13, 2004.
Ticket information on the Beef 'O' Brady St. Petersburg Bowl will be available through the Ball State Athletics Ticket Office at 765.285.1474.

Amber Riley is working her butt off as she prepares for her debut on the new season of Dancing with the Stars – and she's loving it.
"The rehearsal schedule is grueling but I've been really enjoying the workout aspect of it. It's four hours a day for six days a week," the Glee star, 27, told PEOPLE at the Tadashi Shoji fashion show at Lincoln Center in N.Y.C. on Thursday.
Riley will perform on the 17th season of DWTS, which premieres Sept. 16, with dance pro Derek Hough. "He is so cute and so sweet and he actually reminds me of Chord [Overstreet]" who plays "trouty mouth" Sam Evans on Glee.
The fact that Hough has won the competition four times also put the actress' nerves at ease. "When I found out he was the person I was going to be dancing with it boosted my confidence a little bit, so I'm really excited about it," she adds.
Though the powerhouse singer is a pro when it comes to performing, being part of a duo instead of an ensemble is something she'll have to warm up to.
"I'm used to having 11 other people around me camouflaging my bad dancing," she jokes. "Now it's me and Derek."

People inside a Stockton apartment complex were evacuated from their homes Tuesday morning after a vehicle crashed into a PG&E meter on North Pershing Avenue, the gas company said.
The wreck took place about 6:30 a.m., at 6232 N. Pershing Ave., near Swain Street.
Eighteen units were evacuated at Ashley Park Apartments.
A PG&E crew spent a good portion of the day trying to get the leak under control.
Fire investigators said the crew experienced difficulty finding the main gas line into the complex because it wasn't where the map indicated.

"It looks like something George has in his bedroom," he joked as he examined a stuffed toy albatross.
This albatross, however, was a more serious contraption – a demonstration of the latest state-of-the-art technology to help track, and ultimately save, wildlife.
"You haven't been bugging my son's room have you? If I see anyone giving one of these to George then I know you will be tracking him," he said with a smile.
Four-month-old Prince George's nursery is all clear. But poachers hunting ivory are very much in William's sights. He appeared at a special conference at London Zoo Tuesday to hear about the efforts to stop the illegal trade wildlife like rhino and elephant horn.
Eddie Mulholland-WPA Pool / Getty
The Royal Foundation that William heads with wife Kate and brother Prince Harry is throwing its weight behind the campaign to cut down and hopefully stop the trade from Africa. The foundation gave $100,000 to fund a report into the trade and the foundation will give a grant towards a program to help rangers on the ground defeat poachers.
William and his father Prince Charles, 65, heard how the trade is fueled by an increasingly wealthy clientele in China and Vietnam who seek the ivory as prestige, luxury items. They were told that as many as 1,000 rhinos will likely have been poached in Africa this year.
And William clearly wants to go and see for himself how the campaign is going. The prince, 31, who got engaged in Kenya and has frequently expressed his love of the wider continent, told conservationists "I'm hopefully going to get out to Kenya next year."
As he toured the zoo before the meeting, William said of the day's event that he wanted to conservationists "in one room to focus their energy and their commitment to one cause – obviously this illegal wildlife trade at the moment is such a big issue."
He added, "The most important thing to remember, I think, is that you have to reduce consumption of illegal wildlife parts whether it's ivory, or rhino horn, tiger parts or whatever from various endangered species."

UCLA team claims achievement will remove regulatory roadblock to future regenerative therapies.[Yang MingQi-Fotolia.com]
Scientists at the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) have developed what they claim is a fully chemically defined, animal-free alternative to standard mouse feeder cell- and and bovine sera-containing culture systems for human embryonic stem cells (hESCs). They claim their new culture system represents a genuinely scalable single-cell passaging system for the long-term propagation and maintenance of hESCs that will help address what could otherwise represent significant regulatory and cGMP-related stumbling blocks for the future transfer of stem cell-based regenerative therapies from the lab to the clinic and commercial arena.
Their results were achieved through a collaboration between UCLA stem cell scientists and researchers at the University's School of Engineering and Applied Science. The work is published in Nature Communications, in a paper titled, "An optimized small molecule inhibitor cocktail supports long-term maintenance of human embryonic stem cells."
The breakthrough in discovering the optimum set of ingredients for a culture medium capable of supporting the long-term, single-cell passaging of hESCs was achieved through a two-year collaboration between UCLA's Hideaki Tsutsui, Ph.D., and Bahram Valamehr, previously a graduate student at UCLA's Geffen School of Medicine. The researchers founded their work on data and analyses of stem cells generated at the laboratory of Hong Wu, Ph.D., David Geffen professor of molecular and medical pharmacology at UCLA's Geffen School of Medicine, and a researcher at UCLA's Eli and Edythe Broad Center of Regenerative Medicine and Stem Cell Research. Importantly, Tsutsui and Valamehr used a feedback system control (FSC) scheme to screen huge numbers of possible combinations of ingredients for the hESC medium. This FSC approach was originally developed by UCLA professor Chih-Ming Ho, Ph.D., to search for the best drug combinations capable of inhibiting viral infection or killing cancer cells. Dr. Chih-Ming Ho is the Ben Rich-Lockheed Martin professor at the UCLA Henry Samueli School of Engineering and Applied Science.
Using the FSC technique, the researchers identified a particular combination of three small molecule inhibitors, supplemented by basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF), which they state supports long-term maintenance of hESC cultures through routine single-cell passaging. "Although other studies have demonstrated growth of hESC under defined media formulations and/or on defined surfaces, to the best of our knowledge this is the first study that combines defined cultures with routine single-cell passaging, which plays an important role in supplying a large mass of clinically applicable cells," claims Dr. Tsutsui, lead author of the paper in Nature Communications. "Thus, our hES cell culture system, guided by the FSC technique, will bring hES cells one step closer to clinical therapies."
"What is significant about this work is that we've been able to very rapidly develop a chemically defined culture medium to replace serum and feeders for cultivating clinical-grade hES cells, thereby removing a major roadblock in the area of regenerative medicine," adds Dr. Chih-Ming Ho, senior author of the paper and also director of the Center for Cell Control at UCLA Engineering. "This is the best example of demonstrating the strength and potential of interdisciplinary collaborations. Engineers and biologists working side by side can accomplish a mission impossible."

It's late Tuesday afternoon, but the sports stories continue to flood the net and the news.
So, from Brock Lesnar to LeBron James to the latest events circling the Miami Heat, let's quickly break down today's greatest sports talk.
First and foremost, questions still abound over Cain Velasquez' first-round TKO defeat of Lesnar at UFC 121 to claim the heavyweight title, mainly regarding rumors and accusations of illegal blows.
More on that later.
Plus, check out the latest remarks and responses to LeBron James' latest advertising campaign for Nike.
For the Cleveland Cavaliers and their fans, the feedback has been anything but smooth and at times has been filled with angry wrath.
And, if that's not enough to grab your attention, the LA Times is also reporting that Las Vegas oddsmakers disagree with the public's view of the Heat beating the Lakers in the 2011 NBA Finals.
All that and much, much more to follow...

Just because you don't agree with somebody doesn't make them any less of a person. Judging somebody's entire character based upon postings on the internet is like dropping a grain of salt into a glass of water and saying it's the ocean. (Albeit, some people's true colors do show through regardless.)
Trying to degrade somebody you don't know is ridiculous.
There's an "Ignore this poster" button for a reason.
