IOGEAR has easy USB networking device
IOGEAR is known for producing a range of weird yet wonderful and useful tech products and this one is no exception.
The USB Net ShareStation is a small and simple yet elegant and highly useful device that allows you to easily add USB to your network. Its relevance is a little questionable as you could of course just plug a USB device into a computer connected to your network but that of course means that computer needs to be switched on which could waste power.
Just power this thing on, plug a CAT5 or CAT6 cable into it from your network and you have just added USB to your network. It enables an external hard drive, flash drive, memory card reader, USB webcam, USB speaker, or USB Multi-Function Printer (MFP) to be shared from anywhere in your home or office and that's quite a nifty concept we think.
For more information head on over to the product website for more details.

EVGA has USB graphics adapters
Usually only reserved for the Japanese made by companies we've never heard of before, USB graphics adapters provide an alternative to adding another graphics card to your system, to add more graphics outputs from your system.
Now that EVGA has entered the fray and decided to enter this market, they should be easier for other parts of the world to get hold of including Australia and Europe. The two UV Plus models launched are UV-12 and UV-16. Simple attach them to a spare USB port on your system and you'll gain an additional DVI-I output instead of filling up your expansion slots with another graphics card.
The cheaper UV-12 box supports up to 1440x900 at a refresh rate of 60Hz and 32-bit color while the more expensive UV-16 supports up to 1680x1050 at a refresh rate of 60Hz and 32-bit color. It's a shame they don't support higher resolutions for people using 24-inch to 30-inch displays but it should be adequate for most users of 20-inch to 22-inch LCD displays. Keep in mind though, despite the typo, these products have nothing to do with DisplayPort - they use DisplayLink technology.
There are more details over here at the product website.

Apacer has smart 4-port Hi-Speed USB hub
So, are you running out of USB 2.0 ports on your motherboard? Apacer has come up with an interesting and well designed product called PH151. The engineers didn't a fantastic job on the design but the marketing department could have come up with a more exciting name!
PH151 is a 4-port Hi-Speed USB hub supporting transfer rates up to 480Mbps but before you begin to yawn, it is rather interesting. Instead of being a regular flat shaped hub design, it is designed using a Y shape, which means there will be no more port blocking by attached pen drives.
There are two ports on the top and two on the front - I like the top ports as it will allow pen drives to stand vertically which would make for a nice change. Best of all, it will only cost you $20 AUD down under and weighs just 41 grams.
Sydney Australia - April 16 2008 - Far from bleak USB accessory products, Apacer Technology has released the Apacer PH151, a simple design yet revolutionary fun "Y"-shaped USB 2.0 hub. It comes in two funky colours - Brilliant Orange or Designer Black. The Apacer PH151 has four USB ports from side and top connections packed in a compact frame making USB connections effortless. Gone are the days of one USB device blocking two side-by-side USB ports because of the device's different, angles, thickness and direction. PH151 also organises your myriad of USB devices through its outstanding Y-shape design. The PH151 is both useful, excellent value, convenient, and portable weighing only 41 grams.

FireGL V7700 arrives with DisplayPort
As another sign to suggest that the way of the future is indeed "DisplayPort" in terms of a new interface standard for computers to be connected to LCD displays etc. - AMD has just introduced the first 3D Workstation Graphics Card into the market with DisplayPort connectivity.
Reading over the official announcement from AMD, the ATI FireGL V7700 appears to carry specs near identical to that of the HD 3870, but unsurprisingly also carrying a very hefty price tag of $1,099 USD.
SUNNYVALE, Calif. -- March 31, 2008 --AMD (NYSE: AMD) today announced it is advancing application performance with stunning imagery through the introduction of the first commercially available 3D workstation graphics card with DisplayPort support. The ATI FireGL V7700 professional graphics accelerator provides superior rendering speed, 3D performance and color fidelity for Computer Aided Design (CAD), Digital Content Creation (DCC) and Medical Imaging professionals.

ASRock out with first DisplayPort mobo
ASRock hit the news headlines around the world today with the announcement of its latest AMD 780G based motherboard that claims to be the first out with a DisplayPort connector.
It's the type of situation where this claim is half true and half false. While it is marketed as being the first, the connector is not actually built into the motherboard itself. ASRock bundled the board with a "free" DisplayPort card which plugs into a vacant PCI slot. The A780FullDisplayPort board has a total of two PCI slots, so at least you will have one spare for an old TV tuner or sound card.
Along with its DisplayPort output, it also includes DVI, regular VGA along with HDMI using the included DVI to HDMI adapter. For those looking for the ultimate HTPC based motherboard, you would be hard pressed to find much better than this one right here. Team this board up with an HD Radeon 3450 graphics card and you'll enjoy a 3D performance boost making use of AMD's Hybrid CrossfireX technology, too.
Below ASRock were kind enough to provide an interesting comparison of DisplayPort vs. HDMI.
To keep up with the modern appliances with multi-ports, such as D-Sub, DVI, HDMI port and the latest Display port, motherboard makers got to be ready for that. ASRock is fully aware of the trend and released the Worldwide First Display port motherboard today! ASRock A780FullDisplayPort is a full-function embedded motherboard with four display output provided for all kinds of consumer appliances. Through the back panel I/O, you may find many output ports options, such as D-Sub, DVI, HDMI, and Display port, and the MB also supports Full HD 1080p Blu-ray/HD-DVD playback and PCI-E Gen2 slot.
Based on AMD 780G + SB700 Chipsets, ASRock A780FullDisplayPort supports FSB 2600 MHz (5.2 GT/s), Dual DDR2 800, PCI Express 2.0 x16 slot, integrated AMD RV610 graphics, providing excellent DX10 class iGPU, Pixel Shader 4.0, Max. shared memory 512MB, and ATI Hybrid CrossFireX function. For users craving for high definition display requirement, this motherboard is specially designed to smoothly playback Full HD 1080p High Definition movies.
There is more information to be had over at the ASRock press release and product page.

USBee Flash Drive - Bee Unique
I would normally try to avoid making a fuss over yet another USB flash drive to hit the market, but this one being an extremely well thought out concept design definitely deserves a special mention.
Shaped a bit like a bee with matching colour scheme, the cutely named "USBee" is like no other USB flash drive with the actual USB connector being completely seperated from the NAND chip controller; this means that any accidental knocks (particularly when plugged into a USB port at the time) will allow the drive to flex thanks to the ultra slim bending neck.
The USBee was designed by a Damjan Stankovic who went on to become the winner of the MS Industrial USB Competition. It's not known as to whether or not it will find its way into mass-production, but Damjan certainly deserves much kudos for his efforts here.

Galaxy GeForce 8800GT with native HDMI
Galaxy recently informed us about the release of their brand new 8800GT graphics card with native HDMI port for HD output up to 1080p resolutions.
As the Hong Kong based company likes to do, it comes with a customized cooler along with higher 3-phase power system compared to the usual 2-phase, SLI (but not 3-way SLI since it only has one SLI bridge connector) and all the usual GT trimmings.
Hong Kong -DEC 06, 2007 - Galaxy proudly announces to launch the NVIDIA GeForce 8800GT graphics cards featuring High Definition multimedia VGA solution with Certified for HDMI and HDCP supported.

RV635 with DisplayPort in the flesh!
The folks at HotHardware have come through with the goods today as they bring us details and images of AMD's upcoming mid-range RV635 based graphics card. The biggest highlight however is in the fact that this card is confirmed to bring DisplayPort connectivity to the masses which carries several advantages over DVI-D.
Though there arn't any monitors on the market with DisplayPort just yet, it is said that these should start showing up roughly around the same time RV635 is set for release (Q1'08).
This XT variant of the RV635 cards also appears to carry with it a HDMI port, and of course DVI.
To learn more about the card and advantages of DisplayPort connectivity, head over to HotHardware.
We've got a bit of show-and-tell for you here this morning. You might recall recent announcements of a new digital display interface, dubbed DisplayPort by VESA, the Video Electronics Standards Association.

Palit release 8800GT Sonic w/ HDMI
Finding an 8800GT in stock at the moment is still proving to be a bit of a challenge, but as more add-in partners release cards based on this kickarse performing GPU, you hope it's a sign that stock availability is growing as well.
Palit have added a variant of their own to the market, and this isn't your typical reference based 88GT either.
What we have here is the new GeForce 8800GT Sonic 512MB card which has been heavily modified with such features as an improved 3-Phase Power circuit, superior heatsink/fan design over the stock reference version which also results in factory overclocked core and memory speeds of 650MHz and 1.9GHz respectively; and lastly Palit have also added HDMI support.

Asus brings HDMI and ICH9 to Intel G35
Asus has quietly launched two motherboards based on Intel's G35 chipset which relies on Intel's integrated graphics, but this time the graphics engine is somewhat different, as the G35 chipset relies on the GMA X3500. Intel claims that the new graphics engine supports DirectX 10 as well as Shader Model 4.0 and OpenGL 2.0. The G35 chipset is long overdue, but it looks like Intel has finally managed to ship it out to its partners, as the Asus boards have just gone on sale in Japan.
The two models are the P5E-V HDMI and the P5E-VM HDMI, with the main difference between the two being that the first one is ATX while the second one is mATX. Interestingly enough, Asus claims CrossFire support for the full size P5E-V HDMI board and it looks like the design is similar to a P35 board in terms of CrossFire support. Both boards feature an HDMI connector as well as a D-sub for the onboard graphics and an HDMI to DVI converter comes in the box.
The boards offer support for up to 1,333MHz bus and can take up to 8GB of DDR2 800MHz memory in four DIMM slots. Interestingly enough, Asus has somehow managed to marry the G35 MCH to Intel's ICH9R on both boards, something that Intel didn't intend for the G35 chipset, as it's meant to be paired up with Intel's ICH8-series. The benefits of this aren't great, but you do at least get support for two more USB 2.0 ports as well as command based port multiplier support for SATA.
Both boards packs 7.1-channel HD audio with coaxial S/PDIF out, Gigabit Ethernet, FireWire, six SATA ports and an IDE connector. The P5E-V HDMI has two x16 PCI Express slots, although the second one only has x1 or x4 times bandwidth, a single x1 PCI Express slot and three PCI slots, while the P5E-VM HDMI manages a single PCI Express x16 slot, two x1 slots and a PCI slot. Both boards also has a small riser card which we haven't quite managed to figure out what it's for, nor is there any mention of what it is supposed to be on the Asus website nor in the manual.
You can find the P5E-V HDMI product page here and the P5E-VM HDMI here

Radeon HD 3850 HDMI card spotted
We happened upon a few pictures of a somewhat different Radeon HD 3850 card from a Chinese manufacturer that we're not familiar with and we can't really make out the name, as it's only in Chinese, although the card also says Zero on it, but if this is the brand, then we're still not familiar with the company behind this card.
What makes this card so different is the fact that an onboard HDMI connector, rather than relying on a DVI to HDMI converter commonly used on ATI cards. This could be an advantage in tight spaces, as you don't need to make room for those extra couple of centimetres that the dongle takes up.
The downside of this card would be the custom made cooler, as although it's a novel idea, the two small fans are likely to add more noise, which is not desirable, especially for anyone thinking about putting this card into a HTPC type environment.
Hopefully some of the more well known ATI partners will sell cards with a built in HDMI connector as well, but skip the dual fan cooler in favour for something a bit quieter.
You can find a few more pictures of the card here

Low profile HDMI 8500GT from Leadtek
Leadtek has announced a new dinky graphics card for those that need something affordable with HDMI output. The good news is that the PX8500 GT TDH HDMI as Leadtek calls it, still has a DVI connector. As the model name suggests this card is based on the GeForce 8500 GT GPU and it's paired with 256MB of 128-bit DDR2 memory
The Core is clocked at 450MHz and has 16 stream engines while the memory is clocked at 800MHz. The GPU is cooled by a heatpipe and a passive heatsink which should keep the card nice and cool. It's a low profile card and this should make it a great option for home theatre PC machines.
For those that only have an external S/PDIF connector on their sound card or motherboard, the inclusion of an external coaxial S/PDIF connector should be a welcome addition. This allows you to use a single cable for audio and video thanks to the addition of HDMI on the card.
You can check out more info over at the Leadtek website

SummaryThe synthesis of proteins in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is limited by the rate of correct disulfide bond formation. This process is carried out by protein disulfide isomerases, a family of ER proteins which includes general enzymes such as PDI that recognize unfolded proteins and others that are selective for specific proteins or classes. Using small-angle X-ray scattering and X-ray crystallography, we report the structure of a selective isomerase, ERp57, and its interactions with the lectin chaperone calnexin. Using isothermal titration calorimetry and NMR spectroscopy, we show that the b′ domain of ERp57 binds calnexin with micromolar affinity through a conserved patch of basic residues. Disruption of this binding site by mutagenesis abrogates folding of RNase B in an in vitro assay. The relative positions of the ERp57 catalytic sites and calnexin binding site suggest that activation by calnexin is due to substrate recruitment rather than a direct stimulation of ERp57 oxidoreductase activity.

Immunity, Volume 30, Issue 1, 16 January 2009, Pages 21-32
Gang Dong, Pamela A. Wearsch, David R. Peaper, Peter Cresswell and Karin M. Reinisch
SummaryTapasin is a glycoprotein critical for loading major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I molecules with high-affinity peptides. It functions within the multimeric peptide-loading complex (PLC) as a disulfide-linked, stable heterodimer with the thiol oxidoreductase ERp57, and this covalent interaction is required to support optimal PLC activity. Here, we present the 2.6 Å resolution structure of the tapasin-ERp57 core of the PLC. The structure revealed that tapasin interacts with both ERp57 catalytic domains, accounting for the stability of the heterodimer, and provided an example of a protein disulfide isomerase family member interacting with substrate. Mutational analysis identified a conserved surface on tapasin that interacted with MHC class I molecules and was critical for peptide loading and editing functions of the tapasin-ERp57 heterodimer. By combining the tapasin-ERp57 structure with those of other defined PLC components, we present a molecular model that illuminates the processes involved in MHC class I peptide loading.

Add/View Comments (0)A Role for Sperm Surface Protein Disulfide Isomerase Activity in Gamete Fusion: Evidence for the Participation of ERp57
Diego A. Ellerman1, , , Diana G. Myles2 and Paul Primakoff1

2 Section of Molecular and Cellular Biology, University of California, Davis, Davis, California 95616
- In mammals, sperm-egg interaction is based on molecular events either unique to gametes or also present in somatic cells. In gamete fusion, it is unknown which features are gamete specific and which are shared with other systems. Conformational changes mediated by thiol-disulfide exchange are involved in the activation of some virus membrane fusion proteins. Here we asked whether that mechanism is also operative in sperm-egg fusion. Different inhibitors of protein disulfide isomerase (PDI) activity were able to inhibit sperm-egg fusion in vitro. While pretreatment of oocytes had no effect, pretreatment of sperm reduced their fusion ability. Some members of the PDI family were detected on the sperm head, and use of specific antibodies and substrates suggested that the oxidoreductase ERp57 has a role in gamete fusion. The results support the idea that thiol-disulfide exchange is a mechanism that may act in gamete fusion to produce conformational changes in fusion-active proteins.

Welp. This is the only news happening. Probably should be some good hot takes and one-liners about it, and then Neal will return to the team.
EDIT: Rob Rossi has shot this down rather poetically:
It wasn't whiffle ball. That is all. Back to reporting I go. #pens

Stochastic Simulation of Enzyme-Catalyzed Reactions with Disparate Timescales Biophysical Journal, Volume 95, Issue 8, 15 October 2008, Pages 3563-3574 Debashis Barik, Mark R. Paul, William T. Baumann, Yang Cao and John J. Tyson Abstract Many physiological characteristics of living cells are regulated by protein interaction networks. Because the total numbers of these protein species can be small, molecular noise can have significant effects on the dynamical properties of a regulatory network. Computing these stochastic effects is made difficult by the large timescale separations typical of protein interactions (e.g., complex formation may occur in fractions of a second, whereas catalytic conversions may take minutes). Exact stochastic simulation may be very inefficient under these circumstances, and methods for speeding up the simulation without sacrificing accuracy have been widely studied. We show that the "total quasi-steady-state approximation" for enzyme-catalyzed reactions provides a useful framework for efficient and accurate stochastic simulations. The method is applied to three examples: a simple enzyme-catalyzed reaction where enzyme and substrate have comparable abundances, a Goldbeter-Koshland switch, where a kinase and phosphatase regulate the phosphorylation state of a common substrate, and coupled Goldbeter-Koshland switches that exhibit bistability. Simulations based on the total quasi-steady-state approximation accurately capture the steady-state probability distributions of all components of these reaction networks. In many respects, the approximation also faithfully reproduces time-dependent aspects of the fluctuations. The method is accurate even under conditions of poor timescale separation.

A Biophysically Based Mathematical Model for the Kinetics of Mitochondrial Calcium Uniporter Biophysical Journal, Volume 96, Issue 4, 18 February 2009, Pages 1318-1332 Ranjan K. Dash, Feng Qi and Daniel A. Beard Abstract Ca2+ transport through mitochondrial Ca2+ uniporter is the primary Ca2+ uptake mechanism in respiring mitochondria. Thus, the uniporter plays a key role in regulating mitochondrial Ca2+. Despite the importance of mitochondrial Ca2+ to metabolic regulation and mitochondrial function, and to cell physiology and pathophysiology, the structure and composition of the uniporter functional unit and kinetic mechanisms associated with Ca2+ transport into mitochondria are still not well understood. In this study, based on available experimental data on the kinetics of Ca2+ transport via the uniporter, a mechanistic kinetic model of the uniporter is introduced. The model is thermodynamically balanced and satisfactorily describes a large number of independent data sets in the literature on initial or pseudo-steady-state influx rates of Ca2+ via the uniporter measured under a wide range of experimental conditions. The model is derived assuming a multi-state catalytic binding and Eyring's free-energy barrier theory-based transformation mechanisms associated with the carrier-mediated facilitated transport and electrodiffusion. The model is a great improvement over the previous theoretical models of mitochondrial Ca2+ uniporter in the literature in that it is thermodynamically balanced and matches a large number of independently published data sets on mitochondrial Ca2+ uptake. This theoretical model will be critical in developing mechanistic, integrated models of mitochondrial Ca2+ handling and bioenergetics which can be helpful in understanding the mechanisms by which Ca2+ plays a role in mediating signaling pathways and modulating mitochondrial energy metabolism.

Statistical Thermodynamics and Kinetics of DNA Multiplex Hybridization Reactions Biophysical Journal, Volume 91, Issue 11, 1 December 2006, Pages 4133-4153 M.T. Horne, D.J. Fish and A.S. Benight Abstract A general analytical description of the equilibrium and reaction kinetics of DNA multiplex hybridization has been developed. In this approach, multiplex hybridization is considered to be a competitive multichannel reaction process: a system wherein many species can react both specifically and nonspecifically with one another. General equations are presented that can consider equilibrium and kinetic models of multiplex hybridization systems comprised, in principle, of any number of targets and probes. Numerical solutions to these systems for both equilibrium and kinetic behaviors are provided. Practical examples demonstrate clear differences between results obtained from more common simplex methods, in which individual hybridization reactions are considered to occur in isolation; and multiplex hybridization, where desired and competitive cross-hybrid reactions between all possible pairs of strands are considered. In addition, sensitivities of the hybridization process of the perfect match duplex, to temperature, target concentration, and existence of sequence homology with other strands, are examined. This general approach also considers explicit sequence-dependent interactions between targets and probes involved in the reactions. Sequence-dependent stabilities of all perfect match and mismatch duplex complexes are explicitly considered and effects of relative stability of cross-hybrid complexes are also explored. Results reveal several interdependent factors that strongly influence DNA multiplex hybridization behavior. These include: relative concentrations of all probes and targets; relative thermodynamic stability of all perfect match and mismatch complexes; sensitivity to temperature, particularly for mismatches; and amount of sequence homology shared by the probe and target strands in the multiplex mix.

Biophysical Journal, Volume 103, Issue 7, 1616-1625, 3 October 2012
Shivendra G. Tewari, Ranjan K. Dash, , Daniel A. Beard and Jason N. Bazil
Corresponding authorMitochondrial adenine nucleotide (AdN) content is regulated through the Ca2+-activated, electroneutral ATP-Mg/Pi carrier (APC). The APC is a protein in the mitochondrial carrier super family that localizes to the inner mitochondrial membrane (IMM). It is known to modulate a number of processes that depend on mitochondrial AdN content, such as gluconeogenesis, protein synthesis, and citrulline synthesis. Despite this critical role, a kinetic model of the underlying mechanism has not been developed and validated. Here, a biophysical model of the APC is developed that is thermodynamically balanced and accurately reproduces a number of reported data sets from isolated rat liver and rat kidney mitochondria. The model is based on an ordered bi-bi mechanism for heteroexchange of ATP and Pi and includes homoexchanges of ATP and Pi to explain both the initial rate and time course data on ATP and Pi transport via the APC. The model invokes seven kinetic parameters regarding the APC mechanism and three parameters related to matrix pH regulation by external Pi. These parameters are estimated based on 19 independent data curves; the estimated parameters are validated using six additional data curves. The model takes into account the effects of pH, Mg2+, and Ca2+ on ATP and Pi transport via the APC, and supports the conclusion that the pH gradient across the IMM serves as the primary driving force for AdN uptake or efflux. Moreover, computer simulations demonstrate that extramatrix Ca2+ modulates the turnover rate of the APC and not the binding affinity of ATP, as previously suggested.

Ticking coming from near glove box
I just recently bought a 1999 blazer. I noticed a ticking sound coming from the dash, pass side near glove box. It sounds like the turn signal but has no set pattern, and turn signals not on. Anyone out there have any clue what that could be

The Finns have a word/concept in their national psyche/character that is so woefully lacking among the rest of the Europeans: SISU. It is worth the trouble to dig a little deeper in the Finnish national consciousness that allows, even encourages, the attitude they have towards the rest of the Europe/World. All the whining (whinging) is not really going to make any difference - all those heartbreaking stories from those poor, poor Portugese notwithstanding...
THE cosy consensus of Finnish parliamentary politics was shattered yesterday, when the True Finns, a populist Eurosceptic party, emerged from near-obscurity to take third place in a closely run general election. The result will be carefully noted by European leaders as efforts continue to restore confidence in the euro.
The leader of the True Finns, Timo Soini (pictured), has pledged to veto future aid packages for struggling euro-zone countries, such as Portugal. (In an unfortunate irony of timing, Portugal's bail-out talks with European and IMF officials began earlier today.) But although the election catapulted the True Finns from just five seats to 39 in the 200-member parliament, their participation in the next government remains uncertain.
The National Coalition Party (NCP), a pro-EU member of the outgoing coalition, lost six seats but still emerged as the largest party. It will now lead negotiations on the composition of the new government. These talks will be fraught with difficulty. "Coalition talks are always a bit complicated in Finland, and this time it will be more difficult than usual," says Pasi Saukkonen, a political scientist at Helsinki University.
Mari Kiviniemi, the prime minister, said her Centre Party would return to opposition after it lost 16 seats. This means that the NCP will likely seek to form a government with the opposition Social Democrats (SDP), which came second, with 42 seats. The pair would need to recruit at least one other party to gain it a majority. (Minority governments, although common in other Nordic countries, are frowned on in Finland and would only be considered as a last resort.)
That leaves the True Finns well positioned to lobby for cabinet seats. The problem is that Jyrki Katainen, leader of the NCP and probably the next prime minister, is diametrically at odds with the True Finns' anti-EU line. Patching together an NCP-SDP-True Finn coalition might therefore prove difficult. The NCP and SDP could instead secure a minority by relying on two or more smaller parties.
Either way, the negotiations are likely to take a long time. The True Finns' chances probably rest on the degree to which Mr Soini is prepared to compromise his anti-EU position. Opposition to euro-zone bail-outs was the central plank of his electoral campaign, but he is a pragmatic politician who will be eager to translate his electoral gains into power. He will also have an eye on repeating his party's performance in presidential and local elections due next year.
Perhaps most significantly for Finland's euro-zone partners, whether or not Mr Soini makes it into government his brand of Euroscepticism will leave an imprint on whatever combination of parties makes it into power. "Finland had the image of being a strongly pro-European party, and it will now be regarded rather differently," says Mr Saukkonen.

When Doan last played hockey in this city for the original Winnipeg Jets, he was a 19-year-old NHL rookie battling the attendant pressures of being a first-round selection with a club facing relocation. Doan played 74 games with the original Jets in that 1995-96 season, notching 7 goals, before the club moved to Phoenix.
"The connection between the two (organizations) is obviously there, and you can't deny that. You get excited about that. You get excited about people getting emotional about their team. The fans of Winnipeg love their Jets. They're going to be passionate about their team. They're not going to take kindly to anyone playing against them." -- Shane Doan
Now Doan is one of the most-respected captains in the League, as well as a player who has scored 303 goals.
"First and foremost, he is our leader of our team," Phoenix coach Dave Tippett said. "He is one of the best captains I've ever been around in the NHL. He leads through example. His personality on and off the ice are outstanding."
Of course, Winnipeg did some evolving of its own after the original Jets left town. The city now has the 15,004-seat MTS Centre, an improved economic picture, and after a 15-year wait, an NHL team of its own in the Jets, who have made themselves one of the biggest stories in hockey this season.
In the years since Doan left Winnipeg, the Coyotes have played three neutral-site preseason games there. Thursday's game, however, will mark the first regular-season appearance Doan will have made in the city since 1996 and the first time that he will be facing a team representing Winnipeg.
Doan wore a wide smile Thursday morning while speaking a group of media that surrounded him in the Phoenix dressing room after the Coyotes' morning skate. He has been keeping an eye on Winnipeg since the city re-entered the NHL fraternity this past summer.
"The fans here are so passionate about their team," Doan said, "and you appreciate that as a player and love that. I'm sure that anybody that comes in here isn't going to be welcomed too much, and I'm sure we're no different.
"You come into the city and see how excited people are, and you appreciate it. It's hockey, and it's in Canada. It's special."
Doan came under some fire last season for what a segment of Winnipeg fans perceived to be his reluctance to play hockey in Winnipeg. It was his long-standing ties to Phoenix, Doan explained Thursday, that make him reluctant to leave Arizona, not any dislike of Winnipeg or its fans.
"I never once said a single disparaging word about Winnipeg," Doan said.
Of course, Doan realizes the Coyotes might be in for a rough reception from the passionate Winnipeg fans.
"The connection between the two (organizations) is obviously there, and you can't deny that," he said. "You get excited about that. You get excited about people getting emotional about their team. The fans of Winnipeg love their Jets. They're going to be passionate about their team. They're not going to take kindly to anyone playing against them."
But whatever reception he and the Coyotes receive, Doan only has respect for Winnipeg and its hockey fans.
"The city gave me a chance to play in the NHL and fulfill my dream," Doan said. "That's something that (one) should never forget."
Tippett is cognizant of the Doan-Winnipeg history and dynamic, and understands the sentiments Doan is feeling as he prepares for his regular-season return to the city.
"(But) once the puck drops," Tippett said, "he'll be like everyone else. Game on."

Ubuntu Cuts Down Non-LTS Support
Published on 19 March 2013 11:50 AM EDT
Written by
Michael Larabel
10 Comments
At yesterday's Ubuntu Technical Board meeting they discussed how long they will support non-LTS releases as well as the rolling release model for Ubuntu Linux.
It was decided at this meeting that non-LTS versions of Ubuntu will now only be supported by updates for a period of nine months. Up to now the non-LTS releases were maintained for eighteen months but Canonical has been wanting to shorten up this time or even do away with these interim releases in order to free up resources at the company.
This shortened maintenance/support window will affect Ubuntu 13.04 and all future non Long-Term Support releases.
It was also decided at the meeting that users will be able to continuously track Ubuntu development in a "rolling release" manner rather than needing to explicitly upgrade the system. The technical details to this are still being decided.

It would definitely be a boring place if we only had Budweiser. Don't get me wrong I like some of the Fat Tire products, especially Ranger. However, nothing beats some of the smaller breweries. I just got back from North Carolina. Now they have some good beer! Wish we had the choices here that they have. Beer is just like wine. There is no end to the choices available. We have to keep the small brewers in business.

in response to DaleGribble:

That's why I am going to put a GoPhone sim card in my iPhone and use it without a contract.
If I knew 15 years ago that Cleo was going to close (having worked there myself) how could city leaders say they didn't know? It has been a well known fact that if they could find a foreign supplier to produce as much giftwrap as Cleo produces they would move overseas. Obviously they found that source. It was always about the quantity of product they produce. Those large gravure presses are too large to move anywhere. So, the only option was to find sourcing that produced in large quantities. That was hard to find, but it sounds like they found a source.
Here is my question. What are they going to do with those presses? If CSS sells them off to somebody that knows how to build a business and run it successfully, somebody could start a new company that could employ more than the 600 that will be laid off. When Cleo was at it's prime (in the days I worked there) it employed 2000+ folks. Let CSS do what it needs to do and somebody come along and pick up the pieces left behind and make something good of it. Keep the city pin-heads out of it.
I worked in the art department at Cleo as a Graphic Designer for 11 years. I hate to see it go and I still know people that work there. The writing has been on the wall for years, and to be honest I am surprised Cleo has lasted this long. I left more than 15 years ago and even then they were talking about closing. I have never looked back. It was a fun place to work and the experience was great. However, for those that think this is the end of the world, there are other opportunities. If Cleo would have outsourced the printing long ago, they may have been able to keep support staff in Memphis. I now work for an importer, and still do graphic design. We do the designs here and have the printing and manufacturing done overseas. It's the way things are done now. Like it or not that's how it is. There are still jobs here, but you have to adjust to the new mindset. In my case I wouldn't have a job if we didn't import from China. The company I work for use to manufacture in the US, but to keep competitive made the change years ago. It is a fact of life that no government or political leader can change.

Palm Beach winner Rydilluc completed his major preparations for Saturday's Blue Grass Stakes by breezing through the stretch Thursday morning at Keeneland.
Keeneland clockers began timing the colt at the three-eighths pole. With exercise rider Ricardo Orantes up, Rydilluc turned in fractions of :13 and :24 3/5 en route to completing three Polytrack furlongs in :37 2/5. The Medaglia d'Oro colt galloped out a half-mile in :51 3/5.
After a brief freshening at WinStar Farm in Versailles, Ky., Louisiana Derby (Grade II) winner Revolutionary arrived at Churchill Downs shortly after 11 a.m. EDT on Friday to be prepped for the 139th running of the Kentucky Derby Presented by Yum! Brands (GI).
Arriving with multiple graded stakes-winning 6-year-old Doubles Partner, Revolutionary, ranked No. 4 on the "Road to the Kentucky Derby Presented by TwinSpires.com" Leaderboard, was bedded down in Stall 9 of Barn 34 for trainer Todd Pletcher.
Churchill Downs Racetrack has added pop up and other patron tents and metal poles and stakes to its list of items that cannot be carried by patrons into the track on Kentucky Derby and Kentucky Oaks Days.
Trainer Doug O'Neill is excited about the Kentucky Derby prospects of Goldencents, who earned a berth in the $2 million race when capturing the Santa Anita Derby last Saturday.
"He came out of the Santa Anita Derby great," O'Neill said Thursday morning at Santa Anita. "He's doing super but it's one day at a time. He was back on the track for the first time today, jogging, and at this point, we would work him nine days out (at Santa Anita, where the colt is based) and fly him (to Kentucky) seven days out. That's the tentative game plan."
Wesley Ward is nothing if not audacious. In 2009, he ventured across the Atlantic with a handful of horses and saddled two stakes winners at Royal Ascot, thus becoming the first U.S.-based trainer to capture a stakes race at England's most prestigious "carnival." That surely made an impression on the bluebloods of European racing.
With the First Saturday in May just more than three weeks away, the "Road to the Kentucky Derby Presented by TwinSpires.com" is winding down and Saturday's Toyota Blue Grass (Grade I) at Keeneland and Arkansas Derby (GI) at Oaklawn Park will conclude the Second Leg of the Championship Series.
As part of the Second Leg of the Championship Series, points will be awarded to the Top 4 finishers in the Blue Grass and Arkansas Derby on a 100 for first, 40 for second, 20 for third and 10 for fourth scale.
Several key riding assignments have been confirmed for the 139th running of the Kentucky Derby on May 4.
John Velazquez will stick with Wood Memorial winner and likely Kentucky Derby favorite Verrazano, agent Angel Cordero Jr. reported on Wednesday. Velazquez has guided the Todd Pletcher-trained Verrazano to victories in all four career starts but faced a difficult decision due to the fact that he was also the regular rider for Florida Derby winner Orb, another leading Kentucky Derby contender.
The Wood Memorial played out in similar fashion to the Florida Derby a week earlier, with snail-like early fractions that resulted in a low BRIS Speed rating for the winner. Verrazano wasn't flashy but remained unbeaten, narrowly defeating the fast-charging Normandy Invasion, whose runner-up finish resurrected his Kentucky Derby hopes.
Hall of Fame conditioner Bob Baffert has dominated Oaklawn Park's series of graded preps for the Kentucky Derby, winning the Southwest, Rebel and Arkansas Derby a combined eight times since 2010. He will again be a major factor in Saturday's renewal of the Grade 1, $1 million Arkansas Derby, saddling War Academy and Den's Legacy for the 1 1/8-mile fixture that highlights a blockbuster closing day program at the Hot Springs, Arkansas, course.
Uncaptured and Rydilluc will likely vie for favoritism in an oversubscribed field of 15 entered for Saturday's Grade 1, $750,000 Blue Grass at Keeneland.
The nine-furlong Polytrack contest and Arkansas Derby at Oaklawn Park about one hour later are the final races in the second leg of the Championship Series on the new Road to the Kentucky Derby point system. The top four finishers from each race will be awarded points toward a starting berth in the Kentucky Derby on a 100-40-20-10 basis.
"Dawn at the Downs," the popular Louisville tradition that gives visitors an opportunity to enjoy breakfast in Millionaires Row while watching Kentucky Derby and Kentucky Oaks contenders during morning workouts, returns to Churchill Downs on Tuesday, April 30 through Thursday, May 2.
Trainer Chad Brown was at Keeneland Monday morning and confirmed that Balance the Books would be entered Wednesday for Saturday's Grade 1 Blue Grass and said Noble Tune, who had been considered for the race, instead would make his next start at Churchill Downs. Both colts worked at Keeneland Sunday, Balance the Books covering four furlongs in :48 1/5 and Noble Tune breezing five furlongs in 1:01 1/5.
"I don't feel like (Noble Tune has) handled the Polytrack as well as I would have hoped, but Balance the Books is now a probable to run in there," Brown said.
Flashback, second as the even-money favorite in Saturday's Santa Anita Derby, will miss the Kentucky Derby due to a chip in his right knee, trainer Bob Baffert reported Sunday night.
The gray son of Tapit will have surgery to remove the chip and is expected to make a full recovery. Baffert revealed that Flashback should return to training in 60 days in preparation for a return to the races later this year.
With the dust still settling on an overcast Sunday morning after Doug O'Neill gave Kevin Krigger a leg up on mutuelly maligned Goldencents who went on to win Saturday's Santa Anita Derby at 6-1, turning back the Bob Baffert-trained even-money favorite Flashback by 1 1/4 lengths, a sense of reason and calm prevailed.
Mylute, runner-up to Revolutionary in the Louisiana Derby, continued his preparations for the Kentucky Derby with a half-mile breeze in :50 1/5 over the fast Churchill Downs track on Sunday morning.
"We moved the work up because the weather looks like it could be bad the next few days," trainer Tom Amoss explained.
Grade 1, $750,000 Blue Grass candidate Noble Tune worked five furlongs in 1:01 1/5 in company with Big Blue Kitten on Sunday over the Polytrack at Keeneland.
Julien Leparoux was aboard Noble Tune while Norberto Arroyo Jr. piloted Big Blue Kitten, who is nominated to the $300,000 Maker's 46 Mile on Friday and the $150,000 Ben Ali on April 21.
Clockers caught the pair in fractions of :13, :25 4/5, :37 2/5 and :49 1/5 with a gallop-out time of 1:14 1/5.
Undefeated Verrazano was a happy and hungry horse the morning after his gritty victory in Saturday's Wood Memorial, and is scheduled to depart next Sunday for Churchill Downs as the early favorite for the Kentucky Derby.
"The horse came back in great order," said Michael McCarthy, assistant to winning trainer Todd Pletcher, who now has won three of the past four runnings of the Wood, with Eskendereya (2010) and Gemologist (2012). "Everything is good."
After dueling and weakening to fourth in the March 9 San Felipe, Goldencents was overlooked entering Saturday's Grade 1 Santa Anita Derby. But that proved to be a mistake as the three-year-old colt displayed the willingness to relax during the early stages, made his move to the lead entering the stretch drive and comfortably held the favored Flashback safe to the wire.
For the first time in his brief career, Verrazano had to work to grind out a victory, but the 4-5 favorite found plenty to remain perfect in Saturday's Grade 1, $1 million Wood Memorial at Aqueduct. The Todd Pletcher pupil turned back a bid from the hitherto unbeaten Vyjack, then held off the late-running Normandy Invasion, and will now bring a four-for-four mark into the Kentucky Derby.
Jockey John Velazquez will now have a decision to make, for he is also the regular rider of Florida Derby hero Orb.
Dynamic Sky, runner-up to Falling Sky in the Sam F. Davis and most recently fourth behind Verrazano in the Tampa Bay Derby, breezed five furlongs at Churchill Downs on Saturday in 1:01 2/5 in advance of next Saturday's Grade 1 Blue Grass at Keeneland.
By Gary West, special to KentuckyDerby.com
Every year, for at least a week and sometimes two, the road to the Kentucky Derby seems to veer through Oz, not that monkeys start flying or lions talking, but just about everything that happens elicits a "Really?" or at least raises an eyebrow. Everything, in other words, moves the needle on the surprise meter. Well, this past week was that week.
The pressure is off Art Sherman. By earning 50 qualifying points to the Kentucky Derby with California Chrome's dazzling victory in Saturday's Grade 2 San Felipe, the door to Louisville, Kentucky, and the Run for the Roses on May 3 was opened wide.
Honor Code, who will make his much-anticipated 2014 debut on Wednesday at Gulfstream Park, breezed four furlongs in :47 4/5 Sunday morning over the fast main track. Out of action since defeating Cairo Prince in the Remsen Stakes at Aqueduct on November 30, the son of A.P. Indy schooled in the paddock Sunday afternoon, and will face four rivals in an 8 1/2-furlong allowance test on Wednesday.

Theorie Grapefruit Conditioner
DanaAZHairDry HairFine or Thin HairBest Conditioner For Fine HairThis conditioner is not heavy but does the job to create smooth, conditioned hair. I've tried so many products over the last 10 years for my fine, dry hair, including everything my stylist suggested. I used Aveda for awhile and Fekkai...this is better. This conditioner is the first to not weigh my hair down and I can comb through it after towel drying, without the knots. It also worked amazingly well on my son's naturally curly hair- very soft.posted Feb 12, 2014Link to this post

COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION This Imperial Stout is dedicated to George Zhukov, arguably one of the finest generals of World war II. Opaque black in color, with notes of espresso, chocolate, dark toffee and hints of black strap molasses. The English hop varietals provide a subtle herbal dryness, and finishes with a hearty slap of roasty espresso. Pair Marshal Zhukov with Mushroom Solyanka, dark chocolate, cherries and ground wars in Russia.
