The EzPro's travel weight is right in the middle of the pack. | The top control panel's seven-button layout lacks dedicated keystone-correction buttons. |
The top control panel's seven-button layout lacks dedicated keystone-correction buttons, but the menu button yields a wealth of features. Our favorite is the White Segment control, which lets you adjust the imaging chip's color wheel. The menu's earthy color scheme can be hard to read, however. There are also LED indicators for power, temperature overload, and lamp life.
All of the EzPro 737's input connections lie along the back; they're well marked, but the type is too small to read in the dark. The power outlet is on the side.
With a single front leg and a threaded rear leg, the EzPro 737 is easy to set up and balance. To get the projected image just right, the system has a 20 percent optical zoom, but it requires a long 7.4 feet to fill a one-meter (diagonal) screen. The EzPro 737's long list of features belies its size. Unusual bonuses include picture-in-picture and a VGA-out port for adding a monitor or a second projector. An M1-DA connector covers DVI, VGA, and composite video; an M1-A to VGA/USB cable is included, but the others are $40 to $45 extra. Cables are also included for the S-Video, VGA-out, audio, and RS-232 serial ports. They all fit into the included, padded case. No international cables come with the projector.
Cables are included for the EzPro's S-Video, VGA-out, audio, and RS-232 serial ports. | The EzPro 737's remote control is one of the best we've seen. |
The DLP-imaging engine creates rock-solid XGA images and can accommodate sources from 640x350 to 1,280x1,024. The world's television standards are covered: it can project DVD and HDTV signals, as well as NTSC, PAL, and SECAM.
The EzPro 737's remote control is one of the best we've seen. It stays in contact with the projector's twin infrared windows up to 20 feet away. Presentation pros can page forward or back through slides or use the laser pointer. A door conceals dedicated controls for keystone correction, volume control, mute, zoom, freeze-frame, and the menu. The large navigation disc can move your computer's cursor, but you'll need to keep the remote's door closed for it to work.
The 150-watt bulb has an estimated life of 2,000 hours. The projector warns you 30 hours before the lamp's demise. The replacement module sells for $400 or 20 cents an hour. In CNET Labs' DisplayMate tests, the EzPro 737's 425:1 contrast ratio was its sole performance highlight. Its measured brightness of 948 ANSI lumens trailed the group's scores. The color temperature was slightly cool at an average of 5,983 degrees Kelvin. Color balance was just as disappointing; the EzPro 737 missed many shades of blue, purple, and orange, and it came up short in the yellow-green range. It could display only 213 of our standard 255 levels of gray, and what it showed was bluish. The worst part was that the image had only 59 percent uniformity from corner to corner, with blotches of white and dark.
CNET Labs contrast ratio tests (Longer bars indicate better performance) |
Images we viewed were ghost- and flicker-free, but small type was often hard to read, and those of yellow on cyan or white on green were practically illegible. DVDs were a little jumpy, with annoying background artifacts and an overall green cast. The speaker was among the worst we've heard, so do yourself a favor and buy an external set.
The projector operates within generally pleasant parameters. It warms up quickly--48 seconds, by our count--but it takes a long 2 minutes, 13 seconds to shut down. We measured a moderate 159 degrees Fahrenheit at its exhaust port, but the top of the case gets hot to the touch during operation. Its 38dB of fan noise is the quietest (by a hair) of the group.

The Resource Center has all the info you'll need From content to user feedback, the resource center has the information you need for every level of the entrepreneurial process.
For entrepreneurial companies and their established counterparts, joint ventures and strategic alliances bring mutual benefits that each would otherwise be unable to achieve independently.
Pairing with charities enables entrepreneurial companies to offer a morale-boosting perk to employees while enhancing traditional marketing strategies, says the founder of a consultancy that facilitates such sponsorships.
Robert Sutton, Co-Director of the Center for Work, Technology, and Organization at Stanford University focuses on what it takes to stimulate innovation and creativity in the workplace and relates the key points from his book "Weird Ideas that Work."
1 Million Cups launched in Provo, Utah at the end of January, just the latest program added to a vibrant and well-connected community. Provo has a rich technology history, outstanding education and a bright and supportive entrepreneurial future. This mountain city of 120,000 residents in the Utah Valley lives its vision of creating jobs and building a culture of growth through four distinct areas.
When one thinks of Mexico City, startup companies would not normally be at the top of anyone's mind. But, I had the chance to spend a few hours with some of the local entrepreneurial organizers there last week and was very impressed with what I saw.
A technology entrepreneur loses his shirt on his first company, regroups and starts a second, and lives to advise others about how to get it right.
Academia is getting ever more aggressive about helping entrepreneurs get a running start. An emerging crown jewel could well be Stanford University's brand new StartX.
When every start-up you're involved in grows quickly and you're working all the time, how do you manage to squeeze in philanthropic activity? Searching for a way to support his community, a company president got together with other successful business owners to establish the Austin Entrepreneurs Foundation. They endowed it the same way they rewarded employees, consultants and investors: with equity. And, as a result of their business success, the AEF now has plenty of options.
Joel Peterson, founder of Peterson Partners, discusses the secret to successful negotiations. He reminds us that negotiation is how one navigates their way through life, and in order to have successful negotiations, people must be empowered, have high character, and confidence. Peterson draws from his experience as CEO of one of the world's largest real estate development firms and most recently founded Peterson Partners- an equity fund in search of talented and visionary CEOs.
For David Moody, giving back should be a "habit from the heart," started even before success arrives.

I want voters to have the opportunity to decide whether their communities will dedicate local revenue for transit systems.
Commuters: Take back an hour of your day on the Indy Express Bus from Carmel or Fishers to downtown. Thanks to free Wi-Fi and all the comforts of a Miller Transportation motorcoach, you can relax, read, work, sleep, text or whatever else you want while we do the driving.
Buses leave from park-and-ride lots in Fishers and Carmel and make stops downtown, including IUPUI.
Text this message to 40404: Follow @IndyExpressBus This enables your phone to receive Indy Express Bus tweets from Twitter as text messages. Indy Express Bus will tweet about significant delays, weather-related cancellations and other urgent passenger information. You may follow @IndyExpressBus on Twitter to receive the same tweets.

The $5 one-way fare can be paid to the driver in cash. Exact change is required. Single-trip, 10-trip ($50) or the $150 calendar-month unlimited-trip passes can be purchased online. Use the buttons below and present your printed receipt to the bus driver to obtain your pass. You must be able to print from your computer at the time of your purchase.
Calendar-month passes may be used within 1 calendar month. For example, the April pass is used April 1 through April 30.
As of January 1, 2014, the limit on the amount of wages that you can set aside pre-tax to purchase a transit pass will go down to $130. This limit is established by US law. To buy the $150 calendar-month Indy Express Bus pass with a debit card associated with a commuter spending account, you must complete two separate transactions. Take these steps to buy your pass:
1. Use the following button to pay $130 toward your pass using your commuter spending account card. Print and save the receipt.
2. Use the following button to pay the $20 balance using your own credit or debit card. Print and save the receipt.
3. Present both receipts to the bus driver. You will exchange the two receipts for your pass.
The Carmel Connector provides transit access to places of employment in Carmel, including West Carmel.

Beginning the Cycle: Looking back to the 2004 January Camp at The Home Depot Center
Jan. 7, 2008
CARSON, Calif. (January 7, 2008) - In January of 2004, the U.S. Men's National Team held its first-ever training camp at The Home Depot Center. Bruce Arena called in a squad of 27 to prepare for a friendly against Denmark. More significant than the game, however, was the fact that the January camp represented the beginning of a two-year journey that would eventually take the U.S. through CONCACAF qualifying and into the tournament finals in Germany.

y cant ppl leave Chris Brown alone?
I feel so sorry for Chris because he was just gettn OVER this Rihanna situation & then some bitch that was interviewing him gone bring up something that happen back in 09, smh -_-
I think that ladie that was interviewing him knew what she was doing. You can look at CB face and tell he was getting upset and he tryed to play it off and tell her, he's only here to talk about his F.A.M.E. album but she obvoisly didnt give two fucks about his new album all she wanted to do was talk shit about what he done to Rihanna.
I know right i mean why bring it up it was 2 years ago it just goes to show if a young black man he's being positive or uplifting they always want 2 try and break him down while they praise all these other fools in the media i've been a fan of chris since he first came out in 2005 when i was 10 & i still love him

A Resource Based Interpretation of Performance Enhancing Capital Structure Changes : The O.M. Scott LBO Revisited
The O.M. Scott case study published in 1989 in the Journal of Financial Economics has come to be a classic in illustrating the plausibility of some fundamental concepts that underpin mainstream models of the efficiency attributes of capital structure in modern corporate finance. In these models, high leverage traditionally appears as a strong incentive to refrain from sub-optimal investment behavior by self-interested managers. Thus reducing managerial agency cost has been considered as an essential driver of enhanced value in much of financial modeling. In the present paper, we attempt a somewhat different, albeit complementary, mainly resource based interpretation of the very rich empirical material contained in Baker and Wruck (1989). In fact, a close reading of the case suggests that the observed significant increase in operating performance post-LBO was to a great extent the consequence of the yet unexplored cognitive changes implied by switching dominant shareholders. Namely, we find that value at O.M. Scott was essentially increased by (1) a significant reduction in what may be termed cognitive agency costs while (2) the new dominant shareholder contributed substantial cognitive value by stimulating and advising a dynamic learning process leading to enforced managerial capabilities, especially with respect to more effective routines of cash management.Download Info

Breville ikon Juicer Fountain - BJE510XL
The Breville ikon juicer BJE510XL has a patented wide feed chute (3 inches in diameter) and this means you can throw whole fruit in! Whole apples, carrots, oranges, pears, tomatoes, beets and big chunks of watermelon, rock melon and pineapple can all be put through this juicer without issue!
This juicer juices at 13,000 continuous RPM which means it will not slow down while you are juicing. The motor increases power under yield to maintain filter revolutions. This is obviously why it's earned the title of 'Juice Fountain Elite' The juicer's two-speed electronic control offers low speed for juicing soft fruits and vegetables and high speed for more textured fruits and vegetables. For quick, easy clean up, all the juicer's parts are dishwasher safe except for the motor, and for added convenience, a disposable plastic bag can be used to line the large pulp container and then thrown away when finished. This juicer can process whole apples and pears (and more!) without peeling, cutting or slicing. An average 8 Oz glass of juice only takes 5 seconds of work! Cutting action to the max The Juice Fountain Elite has a patented dual-action diagonal stainless steel cutting disc. This disc features 115 individual knives to grind pulp into the tiniest particles. Both the cutter and the filter are Italian made. The stainless steel filter has 40,000 micro-pores which have been formed with such precision that none can even be detected by the human eye Plenty of room! The large 3" stainless steel feed tube allows easily for processing of whole fruits and veggies - cutting juicing time to almost nothing. Most varieties of fruits and peeled oranges can be juiced whole through the feed tube in just seconds.
The Breville BJE510xl ikon Juices whole fruits and vegetables!

In terms of performance, this is light years ahead and well worth the extra money. With the Breville, I can put one or two large carrots or several small carrots into the Ikon's gaping mouth! I can also juice a whole medium sized apple, bundle of celery, yams or beets. My old juicer would bog down as the carrots hit its blades, but the Ikon just pulverizes whatever I throw into it.
In terms of juice quality, the concoctions that I have created taste delicious. The juice is vibrant and a deep, rich color. There is no pulp in the juice from the Ikon. The pulp is very dry compared to my old juicer.
Clean up is quite easy and I can get the Breville cleaned and reassembled in two or three minutes. All it takes is a bit of water and soap in the sink and a brush. I start washing the pieces in order of reassembly and put them back on the juicer as I get them cleaned. If I'm busy, I just toss the pieces in the dishwasher.
With this new juicer, my sporadic use has turned into fanatical use and I make some sort of juice around twice a day.

Actin-Bundling Protein TRIOBP Forms Resilient Rootlets of Hair Cell Stereocilia Essential for Hearing Cell, Volume 141, Issue 5, 28 May 2010, Pages 786-798 Shin-ichiro Kitajiri, Takeshi Sakamoto, Inna A. Belyantseva, Richard J. Goodyear, Ruben Stepanyan, Ikuko Fujiwara, Jonathan E. Bird, Saima Riazuddin, Sheikh Riazuddin, Zubair M. Ahmed, Jenny E. Hinshaw, James Sellers, James R. Bartles, John A. Hammer, Guy P. Richardson, Andrew J. Griffith, Gregory I. Frolenkov and Thomas B. Friedman Summary Inner ear hair cells detect sound through deflection of mechanosensory stereocilia. Each stereocilium is supported by a paracrystalline array of parallel actin filaments that are packed more densely at the base, forming a rootlet extending into the cell body. The function of rootlets and the molecules responsible for their formation are unknown. We found that TRIOBP, a cytoskeleton-associated protein mutated in human hereditary deafness DFNB28, is localized to rootlets. In vitro, purified TRIOBP isoform 4 protein organizes actin filaments into uniquely dense bundles reminiscent of rootlets but distinct from bundles formed by espin, an actin crosslinker in stereocilia. We generated mutant Triobp mice (TriobpΔex8/Δex8) that are profoundly deaf. Stereocilia of TriobpΔex8/Δex8 mice develop normally but fail to form rootlets and are easier to deflect and damage. Thus, F-actin bundling by TRIOBP provides durability and rigidity for normal mechanosensitivity of stereocilia and may contribute to resilient cytoskeletal structures elsewhere.

Wrapping up Stereocilia Rootlets Cell, Volume 141, Issue 5, 28 May 2010, Pages 748-750 Jacques Boutet de Monvel and Christine Petit Summary The actin-filled stereocilia of cochlear hair cells deflect in response to sound by pivoting around rootlets at their insertion points at the sensory cell surface. Kitajiri et al. (2010) now show that the actin-binding protein TRIOBP tightly bundles the actin filaments into rootlets, endowing these stereocilia "pivots" with unique elasticity and robustness.

Mutations in TPRN Cause a Progressive Form of Autosomal-Recessive Nonsyndromic Hearing Loss The American Journal of Human Genetics, Volume 86, Issue 3, 12 March 2010, Pages 479-484 Yun Li, Esther Pohl, Redouane Boulouiz, Margit Schraders, Gudrun Nürnberg, Majida Charif, Ronald J.C. Admiraal, Simon von Ameln, Ingelore Baessmann, Mostafa Kandil, Joris A. Veltman, Peter Nürnberg, Christian Kubisch, Abdelhamid Barakat, Hannie Kremer and Bernd Wollnik Abstract We performed genome-wide homozygosity mapping in a large consanguineous family from Morocco and mapped the autosomal-recessive nonsyndromic hearing loss (ARNSHL) in this family to the DFNB79 locus on chromosome 9q34. By sequencing of 62 positional candidate genes of the critical region, we identified a causative homozygous 11 bp deletion, c.42_52del, in the TPRN gene in all seven affected individuals. The deletion is located in exon 1 and results in a frameshift and premature protein truncation (p.Gly15AlafsX150). Interestingly, the deleted sequence is part of a repetitive and CG-rich motive predicted to be prone to structural aberrations during crossover formation. We identified another family with progressive ARNSHL linked to this locus, whose affected members were shown to carry a causative 1 bp deletion (c.1347delG) in exon 1 of TPRN. The function of the encoded protein, taperin, is unknown; yet, partial homology to the actin-caping protein phostensin suggests a role in actin dynamics. Abstract | Full Text | PDF (747 kb) |

Targeted genome capture combined with next-generation sequencing was used to analyze 2.9 Mb of the DFNB79 interval on chromosome 9q34.3, which includes 108 candidate genes. Genomic DNA from an affected member of a consanguineous family segregating recessive, nonsyndromic hearing loss was used to make a library of fragments covering the DFNB79 linkage interval defined by genetic analyses of four pedigrees. Homozygosity for eight previously unreported variants in transcribed sequences was detected by evaluating a library of 402,554 sequencing reads and was later confirmed by Sanger sequencing. Of these variants, six were determined to be polymorphisms in the Pakistani population, and one was in a noncoding gene that was subsequently excluded genetically from the DFNB79 linkage interval. The remaining variant was a nonsense mutation in a predicted gene, C9orf75, renamed TPRN. Evaluation of the other three DFNB79-linked families identified three additional frameshift mutations, for a total of four truncating alleles of this gene. Although TPRN is expressed in many tissues, immunolocalization of the protein product in the mouse cochlea shows prominent expression in the taper region of hair cell stereocilia. Consequently, we named the protein taperin.

Rogue French trader loses appeal, faces prison, colossal damages
This post has been updated. See the notes below.
PARIS -- A French appeals court Wednesday upheld the conviction of former bank trader Jerome Kerviel for committing one of the biggest financial frauds in history.
Kerviel, 35, was ordered to spend three years in prison and to pay back his former employer, French bank Societe Generale, a whopping $6.4 billion in damages to cover its costs from his trades.
During a four-week hearing in June, Kerviel, described by the public prosecutor as a "perverse manipulator," had asked the Paris appeal court to overturn his conviction in October 2010 for breach of trust, forgery and entering false data. On Wednesday, the court rejected his appeal.
The former trader did not profit personally from making unauthorized bets on the futures markets to the tune of nearly $65 billion, and he is not believed to have the means to pay the damages. He has always maintained that his bosses knew what he was doing and that they turned a blind eye to his trading as long as he was making money.
However, the appeals court threw out his defense and decided Kerviel was "the sole creator, inventor and user of a fraudulent system that caused these damages to Societe Generale."

Baltimore Orioles call up top prospect Manny Machado
Baltimore Orioles call up top prospect Manny Machado
Wednesday night the Baltimore Orioles brass announced Manny Machado would be called up. Drafted 3rd overall by Baltimore in 2010, Machado has been impressing in the minors since his debut.
With a skill set that has drawn comparisons to Alex Rodriguez, there is a definite excitement surrounding Machado. But as is expected, this decision has its naysayers.
Heading into the trade deadline it was made clear by the Orioles that they would not be moving Machado or pitcher Dylan Bundy. These two prospects were deemed too important to trade, possibly ruining big name acquisition for Baltimore.
With this in mind it does seem a bit odd that Machado is being called up. At only 20 years old he is the youngest player to be called up by the Orioles since Hayden Penn in 2005. Typically at this young age players are left to develop in the minors and not rushed into the big leagues.
This season though it seems like that trend may be failing by the way side. With the call up, and success, of Bryce Harper and Mike Trout it has become more acceptable to promote prospects early.
Is Manny Machado going to have the success of those two players? Probably not, but this is a smart move that could help the Orioles into the postseason.
The most inconsistent position on defense so far this season has been 3rd base. Wilson Betemit has the most starts at the position, but hasn't proven himself capable of holding it down long term.
That's where Manny comes in. Although he is a shortstop, he can step in and fill a void at 3rd base. He should instantly improve the defense on the field, a definite sore spot for Baltimore this year.
He also adds an elite bat to the weak Baltimore lineup. Having already hit for the cycle in the minors he will come in and help Adam Jones almost instantly.
It's a smart move for the Orioles. The risks are there but the potential upside is so great that they would be foolish not to give it a try.
Manny Machado will be hopefully starting a long and successful career tonight against the Kansas City Royals.

Corn, of course. Tomatoes, Roma especially. Green peppers, jalapeno peppers, banana peppers. Spaghetti Squash, onions, cukes.
That would serve my needs.

A slice of land on the Niobrara River in Cherry County could be a living laboratory on Nebraska woodlands and grasslands.
The 460-acre site southwest of Valentine would be the state's first Forestry and Wildlife Management Area. The Nebraska Forest Service and the Nebraska Game and Parks Commission would manage the land to demonstrate how the Niobrara forests and grasslands could be operated for the maximized benefit of ranchers, hunters, the timber industry and others — all while dampening the chances of a wildfire.
The site is in a region that has been increasingly plagued by wildfires in recent years, said Scott Josiah of Lincoln, state forester and director of the Nebraska Forest Service.
"The entire Niobrara Valley is dense with forest and way overcrowded," he said.
Josiah said the new forestry and wildlife area is big enough to be actively used for education.
"We would have field days on how to manage for elk or turkey," he said. "And we would show how to reduce the fuel load in the forest to reduce the risk of severe wildland fire."
Last year, Nebraska experienced its worst wildfire season on record. Nearly 1,600 wildfires burned more than 500,000 acres. Sixty-five structures were lost. Firefighting costs hit $12 million.
Recent years of higher temperatures, intense drought, increased forest fuel loads and the spread of eastern redcedar — by 38,000 new acres a year statewide — have created an explosive potential for megafires in the Niobrara Valley and other areas of Nebraska, Josiah said.
Last July, three wildfires along the Niobrara east of Valentine, Neb., burned more than 76,000 acres over 10 days. More than 100 volunteer fire departments responded.
The owner of the proposed forestry and wildlife area is selling the property to see it protected from development and preserved in its natural state, officials said. The tract is nine miles south of Nenzel, Neb., and less than a mile north of McKelvie National Forest. The parcel contains more than two miles of Niobrara frontage and straddles the river in places.
The property is not adjacent to the Niobrara National Scenic River. The popular canoeing and tubing stretch of the Niobrara is about 35 miles downstream.
Josiah said the Nenzel-area property would be an ideal demonstration area for woodland and grassland management because most cattle ranchers up and down the valley have similar terrain and trees on their properties.
The tract features mostly grassland and meadows on the north side of the river. The south parcel includes hardwoods, cottonwoods and willows on the river bottom. Pines and invasive cedars crowd the bluff slopes.
Josiah said the owner of the proposed forestry and wildlife area has been an extraordinary steward of the property for 20 years. The diverse habitats host song birds, wild turkey and deer. An elk herd winters on the land.
The property would be purchased at appraised value, officials said. Game and Parks will continue to pay all taxes on the property.
Funds for the tract would come from a first-ever $500,000 grant to the Nebraska Forest Service from the U.S. Forest Legacy Program. The Nebraska Environmental Trust would provide a $240,000 grant. The National Wild Turkey Federation also is contributing money.
The Game and Parks Commission would own the tract and operate it as one of its 283 wildlife management areas. One of them, the 137-acre Anderson Bridge Wildlife Management Area, is five miles downstream from the proposed new site.
Wildlife management areas are open for fishing, seasonal hunting and trapping and other activities. The areas generally are acquired, developed and maintained by funds from hunting and fishing permits and taxes on outdoor equipment. Access is free.
Josiah said the State Forest Service would develop a plan to protect the health, vigor and economic vitality of the forest. Practices could include removing trees to reduce wildfire fuels, improving wildlife habitat and grazing cattle. Game and Parks would maintain fences, improve wildlife habitat and join in work to reduce fire risk to surrounding properties.
A public hearing on the plan was held in Valentine last week.
The Environmental Trust board is scheduled to discuss and vote on the project at its July 19 meeting in Holdrege, Neb. Game and Parks commissioners are expected to consider the project at their July 26 meeting in Lincoln.

Okay, so this Sunday is the Super Bowl. Oh, how I know. My husband is a die hard Steelers fan with serious gear to prove it. So, while everyone in the family is gathering at my in-laws house, terrible towels in one hand, guacamole in the other, I will be, well, at a play. What you say? A play, I say. Yes, I am a former playwright who hasn't set foot in playhouse in many years, and, on Super Bowl Sunday, while my husband's favorite team is playing, I am going to a play. But, it's not just any play. It's a family play, written by a family member, about my family, my grandmother's family to be exact.
So, despite the urge to see the most disliked quarterback in the NFL pull off a #7 win and make history...I kind of want to get some dirt on my family. We all know that conflict is what keeps us interested and I'm looking forward to the conflict, the drama, the yelling and screaming, the inevitable culmination in some sort of victory, be it personal or professional. And though I will REALLY miss Howie Long giving me the...it's Howie Long, he can give me anything he likes...I choose to support my family, specifically Kelley Kingston-Strayer who wrote A Southern Exposure. The only downside is that I can't eat guacamole while watching the play.

iFixit tears down the third generation iPad (Updated)
iFixit got its hands on a third generation iPad as soon as it went on sale in Australia today. As they boasted on Twitter, "the first legit-purchased, legit-owned iPad 3 is now also the first legit-opened iPad... in the world."
The iPad 2 and the iPad 3 have different displays and the teardown analysis suggests the two devices have different display connectors. The model number on the retina display suggests this one is a Samsung-made LCD. iFixit has identified two chips that could be the RAM, they need to do more digging to confirm. There's also a beautiful shot of the A5X processor as shown above.
