A New Method for Detecting Human Recombination Hotspots and Its Applications to the HapMap ENCODE Data
The American Journal of Human Genetics, Volume 79, Issue 4, 1 October 2006, Pages 628-639
Jun Li, Michael Q. Zhang and Xuegong Zhang
AbstractComputational detection of recombination hotspots from population polymorphism data is important both for understanding the nature of recombination and for applications such as association studies. We propose a new method for this task based on a multiple-hotspot model and an (approximate) log-likelihood ratio test. A truncated, weighted pairwise log-likelihood is introduced and applied to the calculation of the log-likelihood ratio, and a forward-selection procedure is adopted to search for the optimal hotspot predictions. The method shows a relatively high power with a low false-positive rate in detecting multiple hotspots in simulation data and has a performance comparable to the best results of leading computational methods in experimental data for which recombination hotspots have been characterized by sperm-typing experiments. The method can be applied to both phased and unphased data directly, with a very fast computational speed. We applied the method to the 10 500-kb regions of the HapMap ENCODE data and found 172 hotspots among the three populations, with average hotspot width of 2.4 kb. By comparisons with the simulation data, we found some evidence that hotspots are not all identical across populations. The correlations between detected hotspots and several genomic characteristics were examined. In particular, we observed that DNaseI-hypersensitive sites are enriched in hotspots, suggesting the existence of human β hotspots similar to those found in yeast.

Playing hide and seek with mammalian meiotic crossover hotspots

Jérôme Buard and Bernard de Massy
AbstractCrossovers (COs) are essential for meiosis and contribute to genome diversity by promoting the reassociation of alleles, and thus improve the efficiency of selection. COs are not randomly distributed but are found at specific regions, or CO hotspots. Recent results have revealed the historical recombination rates and the distribution of hotspots across the human genome. Surprisingly, CO hotspots are highly dynamic, as shown by differences in activity between individuals, populations and closely related species. We propose a role for DNA methylation in preventing the formation of COs, a regulation that might explain, in part, the correlation between recombination rates and GC content in mammals.

A Novel Method with Improved Power To Detect Recombination Hotspots from Polymorphism Data Reveals Multiple Hotspots in Human Genes
The American Journal of Human Genetics, Volume 77, Issue 5, 1 November 2005, Pages 781-794
Paul Fearnhead and Nick G.C. Smith
AbstractWe introduce a new method for detection of recombination hotspots from population genetic data. This method is based on (a) defining an (approximate) penalized likelihood for how recombination rate varies with physical position and (b) maximizing this penalized likelihood over possible sets of recombination hotspots. Simulation results suggest that this is a more powerful method for detection of hotspots than are existing methods. We apply the method to data from 89 genes sequenced in African American and European American populations. We find many genes with multiple hotspots, and some hotspots show evidence of being population-specific. Our results suggest that hotspots are randomly positioned within genes and could be as frequent as one per 30 kb.

Sperm typing offers an efficient means of studying the quantitative and qualitative aspects of meiotic recombination that are virtually unapproachable by pedigree analysis. Since the initial development of the technique >10 years ago, several salient findings based on empirically derived recombination data have been described. The precise rates and distributions of recombination have been reported for specific regions of the genome, serving as the prototype for high-resolution genome-wide recombination patterns. Identification and characterization of molecular genetic events, such as unequal crossing over, gene conversion and crossover asymmetry, are under close inspection for the first time as a result of this technology. The influence of these phenomena on the evolution of the genome is of primary interest from a scientific and medical perspective. In this article, we review the novel discoveries in mammalian meiotic recombination that have been revealed through sperm typing.

A Night to Ponder
A Night to Ponder
By: Adam M. Snow
Alone I sat a night to ponder, in my chambers going yonder.
Alas! I pondered all is dreary, like the weeping reaper weary,
Like the ancient lore spoke unto me evermore,
Quoth a line, a verse from vital flame -
'A life to live, to live a dream' a secret to life, so it seems.
It is but that and nothing more, quoth the verse, the forgotten lore.
And so shall come the life's of some, alas! Mine shall be the dreadful: nevermore!
Alas! Mine shall be divine, echoes of sorrow reached across time for evermore.
It is but that and nothing more, quoth the verse, the forgotten lore.
Suddenly I came to remember the dawn of morning ember,
On a cold, cold November morn,
I rose from my chambers locked in shackles,
The feelings of betrayal, thoughts of hackles kept me sane.
I laughed and jest as I laid to rest,
Betrayed as the world could see.
I know of no reason why I darkened my season,
But it be sanctimonious, felonious my erroneous alone,
But I beseeched my demons, my own,
For melancholy is my one desire, cast out into a pit of fire.
To die and be reborn again and again,
Only to find myself dreaming of every sin.
But still I long for the forgotten lore,
A spoken truth now lies.
I pondered all the lore's of some, not knowing when the Dawn will come,
And so shall come the life's of some, alas! Mine shall be the dreadful: nevermore!

London Road McDonald's to tear down, start over
Upholstered chairs, plasma TVs and free WiFi will all be part of a new McDonald's restaurant to be built at London Road and 21st Avenue East in Duluth.By: Candace Renalls, Duluth News Tribune
Upholstered chairs, plasma TVs and free WiFi will all be part of a new McDonald's restaurant to be built at London Road and 21st Avenue East in Duluth.
The existing restaurant is expected to close this month so it can be razed and rebuilt into one of the franchise's hip new eateries more reminiscent of Starbucks than the traditional McDonald's.
Construction should take about three months, said Mike Nagan, McDonald's Duluth area supervisor.
"It's going to be really exciting," Nagan said. "It's going to be cool."
The exact closing date is up to the corporate McDonald's, Nagan said. But workers were told the fast food restaurant would close July 18, employee Linda Dierks said.
Employees were given the option of working at another McDonald's during the construction or not work until the new McDonald's opens at the site, Dierks said, who chose to work temporarily at the McDonald's in West Duluth.
As he finished a McDonald's sundae Tuesday, Donn Anderson of Duluth considered plans for the new trendy restaurant.
"That seems like a good idea," he said. "I'm not into computers. But upscale it a little bit — yeah, that sounds like a good idea."
While the menu should remain the same, the new restaurant will be part of McDonald's massive rebranding effort that the company hopes will make its eateries more welcoming and appealing to young people.
Lingering will be encouraged, not discouraged. Plastic fiberglass seats will make way for fabric covered ones, computer outlets will allow customers to plug in their laptops, lighting will be more subdued. Sleek counters with bar stools will allow customers eating alone to watch cable news and weather, while booths will still offer other seating. Decor will border on the funky.
"We are going for a different look we call the 'forever young' look," said Brian Gist, McDonald's Midwest marketing supervisor. "Really, we're just trying to deliver a more modern experience for customers when they come into the restaurant, as well as enhance the drive-through experience."
Getting in and out of the parking lot and the drive-through at this particular McDonald's could stand some improvement, some say.
"The traffic flow is a little difficult to get out," said Molly Tryon of Duluth, who stops in daily for an iced coffee. "Anything they could do to improve it would be good."
The corporate McDonald's, according to several news reports, is also going for a more contemporary look on the outside in its first major makeover in 30 years. The typical red or green roof is being replaced with a flatter, sloping gold roof in an arcade design. Awnings are being added and landscaping upgraded. McDonald's traditional red and yellow motif will continue, but the red will be muted and sage green added to the color scheme.
But Kevin Lynch, a UMD student, was surprised to hear about the planned reconstruction at this restaurant as he prepared to order a McChicken sandwich and a chocolate shake at the drive-through.
"I didn't think there was anything wrong with it," he said of the current restaurant. As for the drive-through, he said, "I'm fine with the way it is. I never had a problem with it."

I have just started to buy from My Protein and had some problems with my order but the excellent customer service team sorted my problem out so quickly and efficiently, I am so impressed with both the care and treatment by these guys that the prices and products are a definite added bonus.
I look forward to being a lifelong customer.
Every time I use Micks Garage I have the easiest time finding what I want and their customer service is second to none,
the delivery service is excellent and I have never been left waiting for any part longer than a couple of days.
I can't recommend this company enough, keep up the good work :-)
I bought this crosshatch hooded sweatshirt with free crosshatch wallet but I had to buy this item twice in order to avail of the free wallet because when I bought it for the first time I was told that the wallet didn't come with it and it took quite a lot of messages back and forth before I finally received store credit for the amount that the wallet costs and when I went to buy a pair of jeans a couple of days ago the price stated was not the same price as at the checkout,
Very Disappointed with the service when compared to previous times and I hope for better in the future.

I really, REALLY want me and my family to begin eating a vegan diet. I have done a lot of research and have seen a lot of conflicting information regarding nutrient deficiencies, ie low iron, calcium, B vitamins. So, I'm confused. Do any of you who follow a vegan diet have issues with these deficiencies? If so, how do you supplement? If not, what do you specifically eat that covers all your nutrient requirements? I have an idea of what we would need to eat to cover everything, but want to know from those of you who are vegans what you eat just in case I might be missing something.
As an aside, do you notice a cheaper grocery bill eating vegan vs a regular carnivorous diet? My reasons for going vegan are numerous and this is something I am curious about.

Re: Puget Sound vs Lake Washington
To my knowledge, there is nothing here in Edmonds. Possibly Everett, shilshoal, Kirkland, Anacortes, bellingham, Olympia and possibly Tacoma/Gig harbor.......that is the best I can do for clubs where you belong, can rent/use the boat as part of your membership.
I know a few that have/do belong to Windworks, all seem to say it is a good program. Not sure about Seattle Sailing. I've thru the grapevne heard some good things about the program in Kirkland, which I believe has a outlet or equal in Olympia.
Reality is, in conditions under 20 knots, ANY of the area's will be fine. BUT, i would stay reasonably far away from the bridges if you can on what ever side the wind is blowing into them, that can be a bit frustrating. scary or deadly if you will in a worst case. Altho frankly, I have not heard of too many of the deadly issues. Overall, Off of Kirkland or Shilshoal would be fine out of any of those programs/ clubs.

Very good site, although cashback can be slow
The site itself is very good and the rate of cashback can be very good indeed. My only gripes are that some companies don't honour the cashback and claiming for it doesn't always work; it can take many weeks to get the cashback and sometimes, depending on your browser, you may need to fully clear the cache and cookies to register the transaction. Other than that, topwebsite.

I don't know what car magazines you read in the 90's, but the Escort RS2000 was never top of its class.
It was astonishingly good considering how atrocious the base Escort was, and Ford all but gave the last models away (it was down to about UKP13,000 at the end) but for pure driving thrills, the Peugeot 306 S16 / GTI-6 was a far better car as was the Clio Williams and the Citroen ZX 16v.
The RS might become a classic purely for its RS badge, but in capability terms is barely above average. Nice engine though.
19th Feb 2008, 06:32
The other day I bumped into one of these Focus ST170s in my Civic VTi. I had a passenger with me and the guy in the Focus was by himself, he tried overtaking me, he couldn't. We stopped at the next set of traffic lights, once the lights changed he got a good start and pulled away in first gear, when vtec kicked in I pulled straight past him and must have pulled at least 3 cars length away from him by the time I got to 70mph, you should have seen his face.
I was thinking of buying a used example, but they are not quick enough, do they really have 170bhp.
15th Dec 2008, 12:40
I have had my 170 for around 4 months now, as much as you put it down I think a lot of people are missing the point, it isn't an equal to the likes of the Type R and it certainly doesn't have much in common with its big brother the RS.
The Engine for example isn't a Duratec, it's a trick Zetec, in fact it's the 2.0 engine that has been modified. It has a Cosworth tuned exhaust system dual inlet manifold among some other modifications. The RS is a Duratec with a whole new build, it also has a turbo with a lot more BHP and Torque to the wheels.
I think you will find the ST170 to keep up with most things maybe not in a straight line but the cornering is unbelievable.
If you want to compare it to other "sporty cars", then you maybe disappointed, but it isn't a bad car at all you get what you pay for. Also as I said before, it will out handle most of your comparisons without much trouble, and those long gears can benefit certain aspects of driving.
15th Jan 2009, 09:01
Personally I've driven the ST170 and I don't see a problem with it at all other than it being a little flat between 3000-4500 revs, but it doesn't bother me, it handles well and has more poke in it than most 2.0's I've driven.
Most of you lot expect it to be super car quick, and end of the day it's only a Focus not a Porsche. Chill people!
(Buying mine on the weekend LOL)
25th Aug 2009, 20:34
Very interesting comments about the ST170. I've had VWs for the last 9 years, had a few GTIs and a VR6, but I've just bought a ST170 and I think it drives miles better than any of the above.
My mate's got a Type R, which is very quick, but the ride and build quality are awful. OK for blasting about in, but no good for every day use.
So back to the ST170; not the fastest hatch around, but a great car for every day use and a blast round the country roads when you feel like it.
29th Apr 2010, 11:18
Back to the ST170 as it's an interesting point of conversation. I never expected to own one of these things as was way under my budget. Drove it back to back against a number of other cars including lastly the Mini Cooper S and it was a better car. Similar sort of road holding and similar acceleration, but double the price and not quite there with the build quality. And where am I going to put my clubs when I learn to play golf? Sure mid range is a bit lack lustre, but you can't knock it as a bargain run around (£4k = 1 owner, FSH, 35k, immac in and out) :-)

I had a similar problem with the headlights/dash lights on my Cougar. This modification to the alternator cured it. Here's a link that explains in more detail. Hope it helps.

The Hamilton County OVI Task Force is planning a sobriety checkpoint on Saturday evening in Westwood.
Saturday's checkpoint, located in the 2400 block of Harrison Avenue, was chosen due to the large number of OVI related crashes and arrests that have occurred in the area during the past year.
Checkpoint operations will begin at 9:00 p.m. and at 1:00 a.m.
The OVI Task Force hopes that the checkpoint will enhance public awareness of the OVI problem and serves as a deterrent to potential OVI violators.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: February 23, 2011 SCHUMER, JOINED BY MAYOR BLOOMBERG, UNVEILS LEGISLATION FOR TOUGHER PENALTIES FOR STATES THAT DON'T COMPLY WITH BACKGROUND CHECKS FOR GUN PURCHASES; MEASURE MODELED AFTER MAYORS' PROPOSAL TO FIX BACKGROUND CHECK SYSTEM
NEW YORK, NY - United States Senator Charles E. Schumer, joined by New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg and Police Commissioner Raymond Kelly, announced today the introduction of legislation that would provide greater reporting to the National Instant Criminal Background Check System (NICS) for individuals with mental illness, domestic violence records, and drug abusers, by increasing the penalties for states that fail to adequately turn over records for those who are prohibited from owning a gun. The legislation will also require that all gun sales, including those by private sellers, be subject to a background check, effectively ending the gun show loophole. ### |

Health Testing Centers have convenient lab test locations in Houston, TX. Simply purchase the blood lab test you want online or call our nurses to order by phone. After ordering, Health Testing Centers then emails you a requisition form to bring to one of the below LabCorp locations. After you you have the blood drawn at one of the LabCorp locations below we email the results within 24-48 hours.
Basic Health Screening
In order for a patient to know if they are in good standing health they will get a Basic Health Screening test done. This test lets them know what kind of action would need to be taken in order for them to continue to stay healthy or for them to get healthy. These tests let a patient know if they have anemia or any other type of diagnosis.
The Essential Health Screen $89 - CBC (w diff), CMP, Urinalysis and Lipid Profile (HDL, LDL + Triglycerides) Basic Health Screen $59 - Includes a CBC (w diff), CMP, and a Urinalysis Cholesterol Test (Lipid Profile) $39 - HDL, LDL, Total Cholesterol + Triglycerides
Cholesterol and Heart Blood Testing
Only about 27 percent of people know the symptoms of a heart attack. Patients need to be informed of their heart levels. The tests that will inform a patient of their heart levels are Lipid Profile, C - reactive protein, NMR Lipoprofile, the VAP Cholesterol Test, and Homocysteine blood tests. Getting regular heart blood tests will help a patient know what treatment needs to be completed.
Prostate Testing
Men who are at high risk for prostate cancer have had their brothers or fathers, should get the Prostate Specific Antigen blood test starting at the age of 40 years old. This test will tell the male patient if more than one test is needed per year. This blood test tells the levels of protein in the prostate gland. Being informed could help save a person from the fate of these diseases.
Thyroid Testing
There is plenty of ways to treat a thyroid condition; whether it is hyper or hypothyroidism. The Thyroid Function Test will give the patient a starting point as how to treat their own thyroid condition. Knowing the symptoms of both the hyper and hypothyroidism will give the patient the idea of when to go into the doctor or when to call Health Testing Centers to get their tests done.
Liver Testing
The liver makes bile which is an important part of digestion. There can be a lot of damage done to the liver by drinking a lot of alcohol, or taking prescription drugs, also if a person comes in contact with any of the hepatitis's they could put their liver at risk for serious damage. Having the Liver Function Test will give an idea of how much damage is done to the liver.
Cancer Testing
CEA or Carcinoembryonic Antigen, Cancer Antigen 19-9 or CA 19-9, Cancer Antigen 27.29 or CA 27.29, Cancer Antigen 125 or CA-125, and AFP or Alpha-Fetoprotein blood tests help test a patient's blood for cancer. These tests are performed at Health Testing Centers for various amounts of money. A person, who is thinks that they are at risk of cancer, because a family member has had cancer, needs to get checked as soon as possible. Getting checked early can help in the discovery of any type of cancer cells. This will help in the treatment of the cancer. Most of the cancers now can be cured or put into remission.
Hormone Testing
Woman will have many symptoms of menopause and might not know it. Though there are some symptoms that can be physically uncomfortable. Having lab testing done will let a patient know the levels of their hormones. Some patients will experience a rapid decrease in the hormone levels while others will stay within the range. Anti-aging testing is available just remember to consult a doctor after you get the results back. The doctor will interpret the results for you.
STD Testing Locations in Houston, TX
View Larger Map
In Houston, TX, the Health Testing Centers have several lab testing facilities that are geared toward patient satisfaction. If the patient visits the website healthtestingcenters.com he will be able to view a variety of lab tests that are available to patients. After choosing and purchasing a test, the center will email a requisition form to the patient to be taken to a Houston, TX LabCorp facility so that the test can be performed. Within 24-48 hours, the results will be emailed to the patient through HIPAA compliant secure email.
Conscious of their pricing, Health Testing Centers perform the Essential Health Screening for one low price, while other testing centers will charge the same price for a single blood test. Doctors commonly use Essential Health Screening to determine a patient's overall health. If a patient is looking for a diabetes test in Houston, TX , the Health Testing Centers will perform a C-peptide serum, glucose serum, glycohemoglobin (GHB), HgbA1c, and a random microalbumin urine test. This may be done in a nearby Houston, TX testing center previous to seeing a physician. That way, when the patient sees the doctor, he will already have his test results for the doctor to evaluate. This will save time and money.
Health Testing Centers know the importance of making healthcare convenient and easy for patients. Therefore, the process of having tests performed is simple. The patient must visit the Health Testing Centers website, healthtestingcenters.com, and choose one of the test options. After having chosen the test, the patient will be instructed to click on, and purchase that particular test. When the test has been purchased, a staff member will send a requisition form in an email to the patient. This should happen within the hour of the purchase. The patient will then set up an appointment with a Houston, TX LabCorp and bring them the requisition form to have the test performed. The results will normally be emailed to the patient between 1 and 2 days, depending on the test that was performed.
For general information about blood testing you can visit Lab Tests Online or WebMd.

Abstract | A critical step to achieving higher efficiency solar cells is the broad band harvesting of solar photons. Although considerable progress has recently been achieved in improving the power conversion efficiency of organic solar cells, these cells still do not absorb upto similar to 50% of the solar spectrum. We have designed and developed an organic solar cell architecture that can boost the absorption of photons by 40% and the photocurrent by 50% for organic P3HT-PCBM absorber layers of typical device thicknesses. Our solar cell architecture is based on all layers of the solar cell being patterned in a conformal two-dimensionally periodic photonic crystal architecture. This results in very strong diffraction of photons-that increases the photon path length in the absorber layer, and plasmonic light concentration near the patterned organic-metal cathode interface. The absorption approaches the Lambertian limit. The simulations utilize a rigorous scattering matrix approach and provide bounds of the fundamental limits of nano-photonic light absorption in periodically textured organic solar cells. This solar cell architecture has the potential to increase the power conversion efficiency to 10% for single band gap organic solar cells utilizing long-wavelength absorbers.

Extensive Solubility in Solids (as in not intensive)by evguy75 Tags: extensive, intensive, solids, solubility |
Apr10-12, 09:36 PM
I am trying to understand the concept of extensive solubility. Generally, solubility is supposed to be an intensive property because it is a material property independent of size, quantity, length, etc. I am having trouble finding a definition for extensive solubility though.
So far, I have found articles that allude to extensive solubility having to do with atom size. Evidently extensive solubility takes place when dissimilar atoms are nearly the same size. And I have seen extensive solubility referred to in several other journal articles. But I still cannot find a description for what extensive solubility actually is, or what conditions promote extensive solubility. Can someone please shed some light on the subject? Thanks |

Death toll from Typhoon Haiyan? 'Unlikely we'll ever know'
Official figure unlikely with so many remote islands unaccounted for
The Philippines government, already under the gun for failing to get aid fast enough to the stricken in the wake of this month's Typhoon Haiyan, has made a feeble attempt at "damage control." One official listed the death toll from the super storm at 10,000 was relieved of all of his duties. However, eyewitnesses put the death toll at far higher, with 10,000 dead in the city of Tacloban ALONE. Still others say that an official death toll will likely remain unknown, so widespread was the destruction.
Three morticians, working alone are struggling to identify dozens of decomposing bodies at a mass grave, work at a measly pace of 15 bodies per hour.
Reaching, counting and reporting the number of people killed has proved an enormous challenge since the typhoon struck. Roads and airports have been all but destroyed. Power is still intermittent, and food and fuel remains scarce. Telephone lines are down, and mobile phone coverage is spotty.
AFTER THE UNSPEAKABLE, WE SPEAK HOPE. Support Catholic Online's response to Typhoon Haiyan in the Philippines. DONATE NOW ...
Bloated bodies lie beside swamps and streets in many parts of the country. Counting the dead has simply not been a priority because survival itself is a more urgent task.
President Benigno Aquino predicted last week that the toll would come out to 2,000 to 2,500. He said that the more dire estimates might have been influenced by "emotional drama."
Numbering those killed in the storm is grim, slow and inexact work. The Philippine government put the count last week at a very conservative 3,982. Few agree with that figure. The United Nations says that crews still haven't reached the more remote islands.
"It is unlikely we'll ever know the exact total," even after a final and official figure is reached. That's the word from the Philippines country representative for the Asia Foundation Steven Rood said by email.
Casualty reporting after any natural disaster is inexact, as rescuers still have to contend with downed power lines and telephone outages.
A very decentralized government in the Philippines, coupled with a communications network that relies heavily on mobile technology is adding to the confusion. Radio backup, thought to be unnecessary, was abandoned by civilian offices years ago.
Tacloban Mayor Alfred Romualdez says that some people may have been swept to sea, their bodies lost forever to the storm. One whole neighborhood, population 10,000 to 12,000, was simply deserted, he said.
Three morticians, working alone are struggling to identify dozens of decomposing bodies at a mass grave, work at a measly pace of 15 bodies per hour.

Very frustrating for Apple TV owners in Canada. We pay the same price or often higher for our products, but we don't get the same services. Look at the update information on the Canada store and in the US Store. Wow, with the upgrade in Canada I can purchase music videos. Isn't that great, NOT. I assume that this is not an Apple issue but the studios or our backward Canadian content laws or some other idiotic reason. I am sure that Apple would love to be able to offer movies and TV to us too.
US Store Apple will soon release a free software upgrade for all Apple TV owners that will deliver a new user interface and enable a variety of new features: Movie rentals, both HD- and DVD-quality TV show, music, and music video purchases Photos from Flickr and .Mac web galleries Direct access to over 125,000 podcasts How to get the software upgrade Canada Store Soon, Apple will release a free software upgrade for all Apple TV owners that delivers a new user interface and enables a variety of new Apple TV features: * Purchase music and music videos direct from Apple TV * View photos from Flickr and your .Mac Web Gallery * Get direct access to over 125,000 podcasts |

Can't you create a US account and use it from Canada? Maybe you'll have to get a US credit card, but with a US account you'd get all the great stuff (TV Shows, movies, and rental!).
If you live near the US border, you could also buy some Apple gift cards from Best Buy or any other stores and use them with a US account. |

CRTC / broadcast laws in Canada are increasingly showing their age and limits. You can get HBO in the dead of Africa, while we get their shows with sometimes as much as 12 months delay... Same goes for Apple TV, cell phones (still no iphones?!....), pretty much any kind of media content. I understand that other countries don't face the threat of a big invasive US neighbor on their own content, but still, it's getting ridiculous. The CRTC should help in promoting home grown productions abroad and let canadians enjoy the best of what the rest of the world is already enjoying anyway. It's not doing our own media and telcom companies any good as they have to compare themselves to an incresingly better offer. Seriously what is keeping rogers from offering the iphone, what is keeping apple tv from offering movie rentals ?? This is just encouraging bootlegging and across the border purchases... rant.. |

Project by dan mosheim | posted 1078 days ago | 3501 views | 22 times favorited | 18 comments |
we finished a neat bed friday. the clients sent us an inspiration photo and we made a couple of photoshpped mockups for them to consider. we had a couple of bookmatched american walnut slabs on hand that fit the bill and off we went .. the slabs are connected on the back side with 1×2 rectangular steel tubing and will be hing on the wall with a pair of french cleats. the drawer boxes are bolted through the headboard with 3 5/1ths bolts per box and are surprisingly rigid … the holes in the platform are for ventilation as the mattress will rest directly on the ply frame and the bed will be in a town in coastal florida … the finish is brushed on minwax poly … a fun project and i could see doing more of these in the future. in fact, i have a 50" x 9' slab of claro walnut or a pair of bookmatched 20" walnut boards just waiting for the right client. there are more photos and process descriptions on my dorset custom furniture blog.

It looks very nice. May I ask why you chose to use plywood with holes for the mattress to rest on instead of slats like what is used for most beds? Is there a particular benefit or anything? Thanks |

Another great project. -- "Man's ingenuity has outrun his intelligence" (Joseph Wood Krutch) |
#14 posted 1078 days ago |
good morning … thank you all for your comments … regarding the butterflies, they start off about 5/8ths" thick and then they are inlaid and flushed off … the plywood is fast, (it's cut on our cnc) and cheap and in this case it allowed us to have recessed 'skids' which are set back from the edges and out of sight. there is no box spring in this case and the mattress will need more support than slats can provide. it will also make the mattress appear to 'float' ... all for now .. thanks again … dan -- dan,vermont,http://dorsetcustomfurniture.blogspot.com/ |

'Tropical Freeze' shows Donkey Kong is still game
March 7, 2014For the last three decades, one of the video game world's greatest antiheroes has been a barrel-throwing ape. He's arrogant, ornery and not nearly as dexterous as he thinks he is.
For the last three decades, one of the video game world's greatest antiheroes has been a barrel-throwing ape. He's arrogant, ornery and not nearly as dexterous as he thinks he is.
Warner Bros. has a bona fide blockbuster with "The Lego Movie," which has dominated the box office since opening Feb. 7. The movie grossed $31.5 million this past weekend, studio estimates indicate, bringing its domestic total take to about $183 million and its worldwide take to more than $270 million.
For more than two decades, Sonic the Hedgehog has been one of the world's most successful video game icons. The little blue guy has more than 70 games, four animated series, and an extensive global merchandising line to his name.
Sony prepared some literal big guns for the launch of the PlayStation 4 with "Killzone: Shadow Fall," the sixth game in PlayStation's go-to sci-fi shooter franchise.
Crystal Dynamics has held the reins of the "Tomb Raider" franchise since 2006, when publisher Eidos decided that Core Design had run the series into the ground.
Nintendo has twisted the classic "Super Mario Bros." concept in many different directions, continually reinventing the idea of running toward a flagpole and jumping on scowling mushrooms.
Ever wondered what would happen if you put "Dr. Mario," "Ikaruga" and an EDM rave all into a blender? Well wonder no more because "Intake," developed by Cipher Prime Studios, is exactly what you'll get — a high-octane action shoot-'em-up game wherein quick reflexes and precision mouse movement are key to stringing along combos and stopping an overdose.
After the long-delayed disaster that was "Aliens: Colonial Marines," fans of the iconic sci-fi franchise should understandably be hesitant about any future games set within the "Aliens" fiction.
When "Mutant Mudds" made its initial debut on the 3DS a while back, it showed Renegade Kid's savvy for developing a classic "12-bit" (not quite NES, not quite SNES) platformer with 3D effects that took advantage of the system's capabilities.
For a franchise experiencing exactly zero competition at the moment ("NBA Live" returns from hiatus when the new consoles roll out), you can't fault 2K Sports from reveling in the moment as king of the pro-hoops mountain.
