This is a discussion on iPad Mini Rumored for 2011 within the iPad General Discussions forums, part of the Apple iPad Discussions category; Originally Posted by KronicKaos Originally Posted by Sonny Burnett Originally Posted by KronicKaos I agree, a 3.5" screen is a bit small. There has been ...
I'll believe it when I see it. We already have an ipad mini IE ipod touch and iphone and yes I've read on my iphone daily for the last year since the kindle for iphone app came out. It's very convenient to read on since it fits in the palm of your hand. I do love reading on my ipad now that we have them.
I think there will be a market for a smaller iPad. As an owner of the square nano, I longed for the screen size of the Touch, but realized that it still wasn't enough. The big issue with the iPad is that is big enough for most of us to work with, but it is also going to difficult to carry around. A smaller iPad will suit some who need a bigger screen, but also need to put it in a large pocket. A larger iPad may be more difficult to sell. Unless it can be used as a wall mount device, I would wonder about its potential.
Interesting conversation. I was just saying to my husband this morning that it would be nice if they had a smaller iPad - somewhere in between the Touch and the iPad. I find the iPad heavy and hard to hold a lot of the time when playing games and lately when using a sketching app, and definitely when reading. I have no problem reading on my Touch, but I also have a Kindle which is the perfect size and weight for long periods of reading.
I love the iPad and have been having a lot of fun trying new apps, but it's killing my left hand from holding it for long periods of time. I sat here just a little while ago thinking of how I could make something, either knit or crocheted, to help me hold it!!! If I can put the iPad down long enough this week, I'm going to design something!!
The only reason for the Mini would be to take over the eReader market. The current price points for the iPad are too high compared to other eReader only devices out there. Some people like the iPad but can't justify the extra expense when they will only use it for reading. A smaller iPad in the $300.00 to $400.00 range will have Amazon shaking in their boots.
You're not going to see any kind of iPad between the 9.7" screen and the phone/touch. Apple has decided on the iPad at its' current size - and that'll be it. They won't try to go to a smaller unit - it would defeat the strategy and water down the success of a single sized unit.
That is 28% more. You are missing the point. I know that they iPad smokes the Kindle and can do 1000 things more than the Kindle can, but everyone doesn't want to do those things. If Apple can make another unit that is an eReader with a bunch of perks at a competitive price to what is out there now, then people who just want an eReader will go for it, now they won't.

Rep. Don Young voted Monday morning before he and his main challenger, state Rep. Sharon Cissna, had their final debate at an Anchorage Chamber of Commerce luncheon.
Young, who's running for his 21st term in Congress since he was first elected in 1973, talked about his experience as part of the reason voters should keep him in Alaska's lone U.S. House seat.
Cissna, who often called herself the alternative in this race, says she doesn't want to see the Alaska National Wildlife Refuge opened to development. She focused many of her comments on health care, saying one way to curb the national debt is to work to at keeping kids healthier.
"Healthy kids do the best, and if they are healthy they can get through school," Cissna said. "If they get the most out of school they're going to be able to work."
Young touted his experience and says the federal government, and its many regulations, have hurt development. He says the quick way to fix looming national debt is more private jobs.
"More production within the United States, more people employed and not by the government," Young said.

MSI Wind U135 review
The 10-inch Wind U135 netbook doesn't disappoint. Its next-generation Intel Atom N450 processor doesn't deliver significantly better performance than older Atoms, but it does contribute to this machine's lengthy battery life. Together with the comfortable keyboard, it all adds up to a solid package Read more

MSI Wind review
With the huge success of Asus' Eee PC, the mini laptop market is suddenly crowded with imitators, but MSI's effort could well be one of the best so far. It looks gorgeous, it comes with Windows XP or Linux, plus it's very affordable and it's amazingly well-specced Read more

NY: Don't Call Me Underdog |
Clubs - Women's Clubs | |
(Photo: Rebecca Brafman rallies New York from the front. JD Black photo) Easily the biggest upset of the Women's Premier League occurred on Sunday, when New York defeated Berkeley 25-5 for their first win of the season. The reigning WPL champions were the clear favorites, but New York did not succumb to that intimidation. "I didn't look at it as an underdog win," New York coach Heidi Rubenstein said. "Every season is a new one, and you never know what you're going to get. Players come and go, and move around a lot in this league. I was not surprised that we won; I was more surprised that we lost against Glendale [the week before]. It doesn't matter who's wearing our orange-and-blue; I have high expectations as to how we should be playing and what we're capable of." Rubenstein's expectations went unfulfilled during the opening weekend of the WPL, when New York dropped a 29-22 decision to Glendale on the road. "The Glendale loss was really frustrating because we felt we didn't have our best game, and it was close," Rubenstein said. "We were knocking on the door a bunch of times and should have taken advantage, but we didn't. They scored due to some bad decision-making on our part and a lack of communication that produced holes in our defense. But it was the first game of the season, and sometimes you need that – a loss to shake things up." New York returned to the training pitch and placed even more emphasis on their defensive cohesion, especially in the backs. As the team prepared to host the reigning national champs, they were fully aware of the wide-open style that Berkeley prefers and dangerous speed in their back three. Led by new flyhalf Mary McCarthy, the front three pushed hard, and when linebreaks did occur, wing Nicole Humphrey and fullback Kath Ryan prevented any further yardage. Berkeley did start strongly, getting on the board with a Sarah Davis try (5-0). But then the All Blues fell victim to penalties and struggled with offsides and not-rolling-away at the breakdown. McCarthy's expert boot came in handy, and two penalties later, New York had the 6-5 lead into the break. "We were dominating for the most part and playing on their side of the field," Rubenstein said. "There wasn't a time when I was concerned [that Berkeley might turn the tide], but when you're only up one point at halftime, it's anybody's game." New York found some more success in the second half and got their first try from prop Rebecca Brafman. Yes, prop. The former inside center and backs captain made the switch this season, and accounted for New York's only big run off a weakside break. "The backs are used to having Brafman's voice out there, as she was the main decision-maker as backs captain," Rubenstein spoke to the Eagle's position swap. "So, yes, it's tough for the backs not working with what they're used to. But now we have Kaitlin Ruggiero – who had been playing flyhalf but is now more consistently at inside center – as the backs captain and she's a great leader. Mary [McCarthy] takes good control at flyhalf and I'm confident they can work it out." The offensive support continued to improve and aided Humphrey and Rosie Meisner in dotting down two more tries and the convincing win. "We were missing some key players but I can't blame the loss on that," Berkeley coach Kathy Flores said. "New York had us in the set pieces, which kept us on the back foot and having to play catch up most of the game. Though we had worked on our defensive alignment during the week, we only got part of it right. We were up fairly well but did a poor job of deciding whether to contest the ruck or not, which led to New York overloading us defensively. "We still need to work on hearing the referee and lowering our penalty count," Flores added. "But mostly on our end, it was too little aggressive attacking on either offense or defense." The win is an incredible boost for New York – the same way it was for San Diego when they lost to the All Blues by three points last week. There had been some concerns as to the quality of depth on the New York bench, but Rubenstein set the record straight. "Our numbers are low; instead of carrying 40-45 players at practice, we have 30," Rubenstein said. "But we have depth. In Glendale, for instance, we had Erica Granger and Yoshi Shapiro at scrumhalf and flyhalf – and it's not to say that they won't be there again, although I prefer Erica out in the backline. It's a good problem to have, and week to week, no one has a permanent place in the lineup." One of the more interesting evolutions that New York is enjoying is the new halfback pairing of recent grads Blair Station (Brown) and McCarthy (Michigan). Rubenstein was particularly impressed with the young players' poise in such crucial positions, and the coach expects their careers to flourish. "We can only get better from here," Rubenstein said. "But every other team is in the same boat – getting better every game. The challenge boils down to who's going to step up more and bring it on the day." The win pushes New York into second place in the Red Conference. Although Berkeley and New York are both 1-1, New York earned two bonus points last weekend for four-plus tries and a loss by seven points or fewer. |

Development and launch of a Smartphone-enabled electrocardiogram (ECG) device
AliveCor, LLC
Project Focus:
An electrocardiogram (EKG or ECG) is a simple diagnostic test that allows medical providers to identify the source of heart problems (including inadequate blood flow, irregular heartbeats, heart disease, heart attacks, etc.) by analyzing the electrical activity of the heart. ECG machines are lifesaving devices; however, they are currently size- and cost-prohibitive to millions of heart patients.
AliveUSA, Inc. (dba AliveCor) is developing a patent-pending device that will turn any smartphone into an ECG machine. This revolutionary product will completely disrupt the electrocardiogram industry by enabling every smartphone owner and nearly all tablet and laptop owners to perform a clinical-quality ECG at any time, in any place, and at a fraction of the current ECG cost.

Anadarko Petroleum's (APC) strong growth prospects are reflected in its superior operating performance, in its discovery of natural gas reserves in Mozambique, it reaching new heights of sales volume and raising full year sales volume guidance by approximately 3,000,000 barrels of oil per day without raising any capital. APC has registered earnings per share, excluding one-time items and impairment charges of $0.85, which beats analyst estimates by $0.08.
Anadarko has been trading at a significant discount to intrinsic value, reflecting the uncertainty attached with the Macondo event and the Tronox litigation. The Tronox litigation has already been incorporated in APC's stock price and now is the time to show an upside. According to Credit Suisse, the stock is trading at a 35% discount to intrinsic value due to the Tronox litigation. We believe the company's shift to the Campos basin and its expectation to win against Tronox would show a significant upside in the coming period. Therefore, we have a bullish stance on the stock.
Company Overview:
The company is involved in the production, exploration, development and marketing of natural gas, natural gas liquids, condensate and crude oil. The company's operations are segregated into three different segments comprising upstream, midstream and marketing of petrochemicals in the downstream business. Its upstream business is engaged in the exploration and development of crude oil, natural gas and NGL's. The company's midstream business focuses on the transportation and supply chain infrastructure of oil products. The downstream business is involved in the marketing of petrochemicals in the United States. In the second quarter of 2012, the company generated around 74% of its revenue from the exploration and development of crude oil and condensate.
Expect to win against Tronox's:
The company expects to win the case put up by Tronox Corporation. APC removed contingency losses of $525 million from its books, based on its strong position in the court. The company's management believes that its position against the Tronox claims, with regards to environmental protection, would be a healthy sign to regain the trust of green investors.
Shift in Focus:
In our opinion, the company's decision to sell its 30% stake in the Espirito Santo Basin to Petroleo Brasileiro SA (PBR) would enable it to focus more on the Campos Basin, and to pay off its debt. As Espirito Santo Basin is known for its low quality crude oil, selling of these assets would help the company produce high quality oil from the Campos Basin. The Campos Basin has developed its infrastructure, and six of its fields constitute around half of Brazil's crude oil. Therefore, the company can tap into the high growth opportunity in this field. Petrobras has decided to increase its operating efficiency in the area by spending approximately $6 billion over the next four years.
Due to the one-time items expense and impairment charges of $804 million, the company has registered a net loss of $380 million, or $0.76 per share, in the second quarter. Its sales volumes have reached new heights of 742,000 barrels of oil equivalent, with an increase of around 20,000 barrels per day in the second quarter. Moreover, the company's Capex was approximately $1.8 billion, and its guidance for the third quarter is between $1.65 billion to $1.8 billion. It has been able to generate discretionary cash flows of $1.9 billion from its operating activities, and estimation revision of more than 300 million barrels of oil equivalent reserves in its Gulf of Mexico Vito field will further enhance its profitability. It has a low dividend yield of 0.52% compared to the industry average of 2.15%. In our opinion, it would improve, as it is expected to make profits in the coming period. Due to its high operational efficiencies, it has the highest gross margin amongst its competitors of 80%, as shown in the table below.

Price Appreciation
The stock has shown an upside of ~5% over the last three months. Its 50-day and 200-day moving averages are $70 and $69, respectively. 85.9% of the company's shares are held by institutions. We believe the stock price will show an upside in the coming years, based upon the following two points: 1) the company expects to win the case against Tronox Corporation. 2) Its focus on the Campos Basin would enable it to achieve higher sales volume guidance for the year.

The stock is trading at 2.5x to its sales at premium when compared to the price to sales ratios of 1x, 2.5x, 0.98x and 1x of its competitors Marathon Oil, Devon Energy, Exxon Mobil and Chevron, respectively. It is trading at a forward price to earnings of 15.9x, EV/ Revenue of 3.44x and EV/EBITDA of 5.8x.
In our opinion, going forward, the company's strong position in the Tronox case, and its strong future growth prospects will improve its valuations.

I love baked oatmeal. It's such a hearty, filling breakfast and it's so versatile. The possibilities for tasty toppings and fillings are endless, but the combination of pumpkin, dried cranberries and apples was so perfect and comforting for Fall. The Autumn flavors blended perfectly and a serving for breakfast kept me full all morning. If you try this and love it (or if this flavor combination just isn't up your alley), make sure you also try my Baked Blueberry Peach Oatmeal! I eat my baked oatmeal plain but a lot of people like it with some warm milk poured over the top, which makes it extra moist. However you prefer to serve it, this is a perfect set of flavors for Fall and you can bake it once and have breakfast all week! (Plus it will make your kitchen smell incredible while it's baking)
2 c old-fashioned oats
1/3 c wheat germ
1/3 c packed brown sugar
1 t cinnamon
¼ t salt
1 t baking powder
½ c dried cranberries
1 ½ c skim milk
½ c canned pumpkin
1 ½ T unsalted butter, melted
1 large egg
1 t vanilla extract
1 c apples, chopped
1/3 c chopped pecans
1. Preheat the oven to 375. Lightly mist a 7 x 11 baking dish with cooking spray and set aside.
2. In a large bowl, combine the oats, wheat germ, brown sugar, cinnamon, salt, baking powder and cranberries and stir to mix. In a separate bowl, stir together the milk, pumpkin, butter, egg and vanilla. Add the wet ingredients and apples to the dry ingredients and stir until thoroughly combined.
3. Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish and spread evenly. Sprinkle the pecans over the top and bake for 20 minutes until top is golden. Slice into eight pieces and serve.

Beautifully landscaped gardens, tall palm trees and fountains nestled in the Santa Rosa Mountains make this a property of distinction and a feast for the eyes. This Villa has lock-off capabilities so you have either 1, 2, or 3 bedroom rental options.
The public area is stunning and includes a beautiful pool area (salt water) lined with cabanas & spas also a grill room, full workout gym, club room, meeting rooms, Legacy Grill for lunch poolside & spectacular gardens with fountains & hammocks. When you venture outside the guarded gated community of Legacy Villas, you will find adjoining the property the Waldorf Astoria La Quinta restaurant and shops and close by world famous golf courses and the quaint village of La Quinta.
Why our property?:
Location, location, location...
* Close to clubhouse, Legacy Grill and pool for convenience but not right on top of it. You can slip away from all the activity and noise when you want a peaceful setting. You won't have to drive to the pool with the kids, it is steps away.
* Single story, 1705 square foot 3 bedroom/3 bath villa, means no steps to climb and no one over you like the regular Villas. Staying here leaves you with the peace and quite that you need or the party and fun that won't impose on others. Our specific property is family-friendly since it is both a single story property AND close the the clubhouse and pool. This home was built in the last phase of the development. It is new and only a year old, decorated in soft earth tones with high quality amenities and appliances.
* Views to the Southwest of the beautiful Santa Rosa Mountain Range with an unobstructed view from the living room, dinning room and main master bedroom. It's what you expect from a vacation getaway.
* 2 king beds and 1 queen bed. Most Villas, unless coverted at the owners expense, have only 1 king bed. Stay here with another couple and you don't have to draw straws for who gets the best accommodations. In our Villa, you both do; making this the perfect vacation for all members of the family, children, parents and grand parents.
* Since this is a private ownership, please know that we pay the utmost attention to the upkeep of our property. Our goal is to provide you with the best quality experience at an affordable price so you will refer us to your friends and family.
* Very Kid friendly - there is a small grass area directly off the two patios, ideal if you have small children. They can play within your immediate sight and within the confines of our gated community. All this while relax on the patio and taking in the sites.
Attractions: The Coachella Valley has a myriad of activities from which to choose including golf, hiking, shopping, ballooning, theater, casinos and music. There is the Living Desert Wildlife Park, the Desert Museum, the Children's Discovery Museum, the Agua Caliente Indian Canyons Park (fabulous giant Palm Tree forest with stream running through (should not be missed!) and last, but by no means least, The great Joshua Tree National Park--it is not just a bunch of scrawny trees)--massive rock formations, abandoned mines and ranches from the turn of the century, fascinating desert flora and fauna and views of the entire Coachella Valley. Easy access to Palm Desert, Palm Springs and Indio.

(The following statement was released by the rating agency)
Jan 29 - Fitch Ratings has affirmed the 'AAA' Insurer Financial Strength
(IFS) ratings of Teachers Insurance and Annuity Association of America (TIAA)
and its wholly owned subsidiary, TIAA-CREF Life Insurance Company (TIAA-CREF
Life). At the same time, Fitch has affirmed TIAA's 'AA+' Issuer Default Rating
(IDR) and 'AA' surplus note rating. A complete list of ratings is provided at
the end of this release. The Rating Outlook is Stable.
TIAA's ratings are based on its extremely strong balance sheet fundamentals,
strong and predictable operating earnings, and very strong competitive position
in the U.S. pension market.
TIAA's balance sheet fundamentals are consistent with 'AAA' ratings
expectations. Financial leverage (surplus notes in relation to total adjusted
capital) remains low at 6% at Sept. 30, 2012 and operating leverage is
very low at 6x. The total financing and commitments (TFC) ratio, which includes
TIAA Global Markets, Inc. (TGM), is among the lowest in the Fitch universe. TIAA
estimates its risk-based capital (RBC) ratio at 594% as of Sept. 30, 2012 and
expects it to be in the 587% range at year end compared to 558% at year-end
TIAA's net realized investment losses declined modestly through the first nine
months of 2012, although OTTI was up somewhat mainly due to lower rated CMBS.
Full-year 2012 realized losses are expected to be in line with 2011.
TIAA's operating earnings remain strong and stable despite pressure from ongoing
low interest rates. Operating return on TAC was 8.8% at Sept. 30, 2012, compared
to 9.6% for the full year 2011, with the decline due mainly to an increase in
TAC. Net operating gain was $$2.1 billion through nine months 2012 compared to
$2.2 billion in the prior year period. Client net flows, excluding annuity
benefit payouts, increased 42% through nine months 2012 from the prior period.
The slow economic recovery, financial market volatility and potential contagion
from the eurozone debt crisis are ongoing concerns. Fitch expects these factors
to constrain earnings growth for TIAA and the industry as a whole over the near
term. Fitch believes, however, that TIAA is somewhat insulated from equity
market volatility and disintermediation risk given the lack of living and death
benefit guarantees in its pension annuities and its very stable liability
Key rating triggers that could result in a downgrade include:
--Reported RBC below 425% on a sustained basis;
--Investment losses develop significantly higher than expected;
--A significant drop in operating earnings resulting in an after-tax operating
return on TAC below 5% for 18 months or longer;
--A regulatory change that would have a negative impact on TIAA's core pension
--A change in TIAA's ownership structure.
Fitch affirms the following ratings with a Stable Outlook:
Teachers Insurance and Annuity Association of America
--IFS at 'AAA';
--IDR at 'AA+';
--Surplus note at 'AA'.
TIAA-CREF Life Insurance Company
--IFS at 'AAA'.
TIAA Global Markets, Inc. (Guaranteed by TIAA)
--$500 million 4.95% senior notes due July 15, 2013 at 'AA+'.
Additional information is available at 'www.fitchratings.com'. The ratings above
were solicited by, or on behalf of, the issuer, and therefore, Fitch has been
compensated for the provision of the ratings.

Reality TV makes it tough to face real life. There's no high-powered crew coming, you're not headed for Disney World, and before you can say "Ty Pennington," it's Sunday night. So can you really make a difference in a weekend? You bet. It all starts with a plan. Use our time schedule to help you divide up and prioritize your tasks.
Window Boxes:
Plastic Pots:
Shopping List
Planting How-to
Finishing Touches
A few well-placed containers polish the makeover. Inexpensive plastic pots painted your trim color become instant accessories
with a big-bucks look. Placement is key: Low saucers on each side of the steps define this area as the entrance without being
bulky and in the way. The large pot on the corner anchors the area between the front door and the front walk.
Add splashes of fun and color with a bench. Festive outdoor fabric pillows give your home personality and complete the look.
Shutter Style
Shutters add character. You may be tempted to buy those colored plastic versions and nail them to your home, but don't. Sure,
it may take a little more effort to prime, paint, and install real wood shutters, but it's worth it. Your home will stand
out from your neighbors'--in a good way, of course.
Carefully measure your windows prior to ordering shutters. Measure from the top of the sill to the top of the window; subtract 1/2 inch to allow room for the shutter to close inside the window opening.
You can go simple or decorative when it comes to hardware. We choose a classic steel hinge that mounts directly to the window frame. Shutter dogs or metal holdbacks keep the shutters resting against the house, not flapping in the wind. These were installed directly into the brick.
Paint Pointers
A little painting is by far the easiest and most cost-effective spruce-up you can do for your home. A fresh coat in a snazzy
shade on your front door makes a huge difference--all it takes is a quart. Just be sure you use the right formula. Remember,
never use a latex-based mix over an oil-based paint; it'll peel off in no time.

Sticking with that theme of stupid kids with bad parents? This certainly is a good example of it. I want to know more about Maverick Jones; that show looked awesome.

This one is the best in the series so far, definitely. Those kids aren't very good off, yet they laugh at just about everything. Plus there's the inch of color at one point, which brings a different kind of light onto the series.
Rated 4.5 / 5 stars June 26, 2004
Best one in the series, for sure
LOL, this is definetly the best one in the series. This also had the first colored thing in the series. Nice job.
Rated 5 / 5 stars June 9, 2004
And the Oscar goes to...
This is without a doubt the most beutiful piece of film making I have seen on the internet to date. The sheer essence of this stories message is captured vividly within the subliminal confines of the black and white world in which these charecters live. That world is shattered at the end of this film by a tiny glinter of color, which I think symbolizes the never ending hope of an innocent child.

In 1886, Goldsworthy Lowes Dickinson and C. R. Ashbee invited Edward Carpenter, the sandal-wearing socialist, to lecture in Cambridge. He made a huge impression, not least on Roger Fry, who was then in his second year as an undergraduate. Together with Ashbee, Fry went to visit Carpenter in Derbyshire and they became friends. In 1894, Fry painted this portrait of him, looking suitably raffish, alone in a bleak interior and wearing what Fry called his 'anarchist overcoat'. Following Carpenter's death in 1929, Fry offered the portrait to the Gallery: 'In view of the position that the late Edward Carpenter held in the world of social reform you may, I think, wish to have a portrait of him. I knew him well in my youth and one of my earliest more or less complete works was a portrait of him. I should be very glad to offer this to the National Portrait Gallery should it be found acceptable.'

Friday marks the 225th anniversary of the passage of the Northwest Ordinance, a day most people will mark without stopping to think of its meaning.
But we hope those are able attend a special program at 11 a.m. in Muskingum Park to mark the occasion.
When the ordinance was passed in 1787 it not only opened up western land for development but it also paved the way for advancements in education and civil rights, and prohibited slavery.
It set the developing nation on a path to things that many of us take for granted today, but shouldn't. They're things that many places in the world still don't have.
The history of this area at that time is as interesting as the broader picture of what was happening as the United States became settled.
Those who aren't as familiar with the details should take a few minutes Friday to look up the history of Marietta, of Ohio and the Northwest Ordinance.
It's an important anniversary, for those aware of the significance and for those who never question where their freedoms come from.

Artificial hand becoming more human
Advances in human-to-machine communication and miniaturization could bring the technology of artificial limbs working like the real thing close within a decade.
That is what Rutgers biomedical engineer and inventor William Craelius said. He created the Dextra artificial hand, which allows a person to use existing nerve pathways to control individual computer-driven mechanical fingers.
"Bionic technologies can be adapted for restoring some degree of almost any lost function," Craelius said. He added that if progress continues at its present pace, "human-machine communication could soon lose its distinction as the No. 1 obstacle to bionics."
As an example, he described a wireless implant the size of a grain of rice, developed at UCLA by a team led by Dr. Gerald Loeb. Doctors inject the device under the skin to provide independent communication between nerves and bionic devices. Craelius said while it may require more than 1,000 connections between the brain and bionic devices to communicate the data for a complex action such as walking, it is probably achievable, even if most of the necessary computer processing is done outside the body.
Miniaturization of components will eventually bring that processing inside the body, Craelius said. "The number of transistors we can fit onto an integrated circuit doubles about every 18 months," he said. "At this pace, within the decade the processing for complex bionic activity will be implantable in the brain or elsewhere in the body."
While scientists are eliminating obstacles to communication and miniaturization of bionics, they still need to devise ways to protect the tiny devices from electromagnetic interference and corrosion from bodily fluids, Craelius said. Battery capacity and recharging are also concerns as the devices handle an increasing number of tasks.
"Finally, users who subject themselves to brain implantation of hundreds of electrodes are not going to want bulky plastic sockets for their new bionic limbs," he said. "Creating a more natural integration between the limb and existing bone is going to be vitally important. A human feel is a crucial part of bionic restoration."
Human feel is an area Craelius is addressing in his own work with Dextra, an artificial hand he developed along with a team of Rutgers students and Nian-Crae, Inc. The prosthesis gives a person who has lost a hand natural control of up to five independent artificial fingers. Controlled by electrical signals generated by the user's remaining muscles and tendons, Dextra allows such complex hand activities as typing and piano playing. It has a plastic socket that encases an amputee's upper limb. A device worn outside the body handles some of the processing and communication.

I am hoping you may be able to help answer a question I have regarding Memorial# 5032283 for Jack H Camblin born 1907 and died Sep 1978. It appears there are 2 burial places for him. One at Mount Hope Cemetery, Webb City, Jasper, Missouri (mem#66467415) and one at Evergreen Cemetery, Jasper, Jasper, Texas (mem#5032283) according to a notation I found for him in a family tree on ancestry.com they are the same person and there are two plots for him. Can you confirm whether he was buried at Evergreen Cemetery or whether it is just a memorial headstone? I would appreciate any help you can give me on this.
Sincerely, Melinda Mustered

Don't have cash for rooftop solar panels but still want a green roof? Dutch designer Klaas Kuiken has a solution: rooftop tile birdhouses. Kuiken explains, "Nowadays birds are not welcome under roof tiles anymore, so they lost a beautiful nest place. Placing a house on top of a roof tile [creates] a nice place for a bird's nest." The designer's work is purely conceptual for now, but we imagine that these beautiful clay birdhouses would sell quickly in eco-savvy neighborhoods. What do you think — would you put one of these on your roof?

Earlier, the group heard from Gen. Martin Dempsey, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. Dempsey said that since the armed services are shrinking, their real estate should, too.

text: Introduction: The Use of Health Risk Appraisals in Primary Care Environmental Scan - Health Risk Appraisals in Primary CareFinal report of environmental scan and expert panel meeting to learn more about how health risk assessments are being used in primary care and to identify the research gaps related to HA utilization and outcomes. Purpose"Motivating and maintaining health behavior change is critical to improving the nation's health and controlling health care costs. Health behavior research has shown that helping people identify risks to their health can facilitate the process of healthy change. This is the goal of many Health Risk Appraisals (HAs). Some HAs go beyond simple assessment and target key risks for change" (Mayo Foundation for Medical Education and Research, 2009).Most HA use thus far has been in workplace settings. The Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ) is interested in understanding the use of HA information in patient care. A one year task order project to study this issue was awarded in July 2008 to Econometrica, Inc. and PIRE. This project is intended to inform the ongoing planning and decisionmaking process for research and programming at AHRQ.This final report incorporates the findings of the two major tasks of the study, an environmental scan and an Expert Panel meeting. The purpose of the scan was to review the current level of knowledge about the use of HAs in primary and chronic care settings and the effects of HA use on care delivery and health outcomes. The purpose of the Panel meeting was to bring together experts in the field to discuss the key research questions, review the scan results, inform the work of the U.S. Preventive Services Task Force (USPSTF), and recommend future directions for AHRQ research activities.The study topics included in this report are:How HAs are currently being used in primary care settings.How HAs might be used more effectively to improve the delivery of preventive services in primary care settings.How information derived from the use of HAs in other settings, such as worksite health promotion programs is, or is not, shared with primary care providers.How HAs are being used (in any setting) to provide care to individuals that integrates preventive services and care management for chronic conditions.Strategies that might improve the delivery and coordination of clinical preventive services when HAs are used, regardless of setting.Gaps in knowledge and evidence regarding the use of HAs, and how HAs affect the delivery of effective preventive and care management services.This report presents overall findings, highlights gaps in research and practice, and identifies next steps for AHRQ.Return to Contents Organization of this ReportThe methodology used for key project tasks is presented, followed by findings organized by the six research topics. The order by topic is:Key Research Topic.Environmental Scan Summary.Expert Panel Meeting Summary.Conclusions.An overall analysis and summary follows the topic summaries. The report ends with conclusions and recommendations to AHRQ.Lists of references and literature reviewed are appended to the report.

With countless new records surfacing every day, we at DJBooth think long and hard about what's going to earn a coveted spot on our front page, and though we passed over Soul Diggaz member-turned-R&B singer Corte Ellis's promo single, Money On The Floor, when it dropped two weeks ago, this new, Slaughterhouse-assisted remix was too hot to ignore. Over Ellis and his Soul Diggaz colleagues' original synth-brass production, Budden, Ortiz, Crook, and Royce each give their own take on the topic of big spending, The recent SRC/Universal signee still "[stunts] like a motherf*cker," on the hook, along with his opening verse from the original (now second), but the fearsome foursome will undoubtedly receive the lion's share of attention, due in large part to the lyrically-focused supergroup's mere presence on a paper-stacking club record. Personally, I think it's an interesting change of pace, but, as always, Booth readers will have the final say.
