Raiders add many more players
Day three of the 2012 NFL Draft came and went yesterday and the Raiders added a number of new players to the team.
Coming into the day, the Raiders had 4 draft picks - one fourth, two fifths and one sixth.
With their fourth round pick, 129th overall and the second of three compensatory picks awarded the team, they took OLB Miles Burris from San Diego St. He has good size at 6'2" 246 and was a locker room leader. He's reportedly an instictive player and good in run support but may be a liability in pass protection. He had some success as a blitzer in college.
When the Raiders got on the clock for their first fifth round pick, 148 overall, they ended up trading with the Lions out of the pick. The Raiders moved down 10 spots to 158 overall and in exchange for moving, they received the Lions seventh round pick.

Ericka Schneider always has tried to find the bright side to any situation — even those that at first glance may appear to be rather bleak.
Such was the case last month as the Lakewood Ranch High alum patiently sat listening to the results of the July 7-11 qualifier for the Walmart First Tee Open. With all but one of the spots already filled, Schneider began making a list of congratulatory responses to dole out to her friends.
"I was just happy that a lot of my friends were going, and if I didn't get picked, then it wasn't meant to be," Schneider said.
Unbeknownst to Schneider, the organizers of the event had purposely decided to call Schneider's name last, knowing full well that the 18-year-old could take the joke.
Schneider was one of 22 junior golfers selected to participate in the First Tee Open, which will be held Sept. 4-6 at Pebble Beach, marking the second consecutive year that Schneider has made the cut.
"I was very happy, and I feel so blessed to be able to go again," Schneider said.
However, Schneider's celebration was cut somewhat short July 13 when a car accident left her with a broken collarbone — forcing her to take a break from the game she loves.
"With this injury, I've seen how quickly golf can be taken away," Schneider said. "So now, I just want to go out and have as much fun as I possibly can and count my blessings while I'm there."
Schneider began playing golf four years ago after deciding that she wanted to play a sport in high school. Since then, both Schneider's skill level and passion for the game have blossomed.
This fall, Schneider will attend Daytona State College on a full golf scholarship. And although Schneider is eager to begin playing for the Falcons, her ultimate goal is to go pro.
"I want to be the ambassador for girls golf for First Tee," Schneider said. "They don't really have a face on the LPGA tour who represents them, and my goal is to be that girl."

Gwinnett Daily Post
Parsons principal honored for foreign language supportSUWANEE -- The Foreign Language Association of Georgia (FLAG) recently saluted a Gwinnett County school principal for her leadership in supporting foreign languages.
FLAG presented Charlotte Sadler with the organization's Administrative Support of Foreign Languages Award. Under Sadler's leadership, Parsons Elementary offers Spanish to its K-5 students.
FLAG's Administrative Support of Foreign Languages Award recognizes a dean, superintendent, principal or other administrator who has evidenced strong and overt support for foreign languages.
Sadler has offered Spanish at the Peachtree Ridge Cluster school for several years. In addition to students learning the language during the school day, students also participate in several activities and programs such as the Spanish Spelling Bee and musical performances in Spanish.
The Spanish language program at Parsons Elementary is taught by teacher Joe Frank Uriz who was Georgia's K-12 Foreign Language Teacher of the Year in 2010. Uriz teaches Spanish to 804 students in grades K-5.
Frank Reddy writes about education. Good News from Schools appears in the Sunday edition of the Daily Post.

I thought this article was to be about the success of the students at the State Auto Skills Competition.
Why does it mention only this foreign language program?
Oh yeah, I know why...editors. The GDP has none.

Book Description:Kathy Charmaz is one of the world's leading theorists and exponents of grounded theory. In this important and essential new textbook, she introduces the reader to the craft of using grounded theory in social research, and provides a clear, step-by-step guide for those new to the field. Using worked examples throughout, this book also maps out an alternative vision of grounded theory put forward by its founding thinkers, Glaser and Strauss. To Charmaz, grounded theory must move on from its positivist origins and must incorporate many of the methods and questions posed by constructivists over the past twenty years to become a more nuanced and reflexive practice.

Things could get interesting for the Cubs after the current series ends, especially if they can win the series with the Braves.
After Wednesday, the Cubs' following 19 games will include only two against a team that currently has a winning record (the two in St. Louis next Monday and Tuesday). The other 17 -- a series in Milwaukee this weekend, two at home vs. the Phillies, three vs. the White Sox, a trip to Houston and Pittsburgh followed by three at home vs. the Padres -- are all against teams that have records not very much different than the Cubs' current 12-17.
I'm not predicting any recovery to the postseason this year. That's a pipedream. But the Cubs could do quite well in that 19-game stretch (they're 3-3 vs. the Cardinals this year, so even that could be a split), and find themselves near .500 in early June.
That'd be nice.
Cubs lineup:
DeJesus rf, Campana cf, Castro ss, LaHair 1b, Soriano lf, Stewart 3b, Soto c, Cardenas 2b, Dempster p
Braves lineup:
Bourn cf, Prado lf, Freeman 1b, McCann c, Uggla 2b, Jones 3b, Heyward rf, Pastornicky ss, Delgado p
Today's Starting Pitchers | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Ryan Dempster would be leading the National League in ERA if he had just one more inning to his credit this year -- he's just short of qualifying. He's made four starts, all of them good, a couple that could be considered excellent. Current Braves are hitting .242 (40-for-165) against him with three home runs, one each by Chipper Jones, Freddie Freeman and Dan Uggla.
Randall Delgado will be making his 13th major league start tonight. He has never faced the Cubs or anyone on the current roster. You know what usually happens when Cubs teams face guys like this. Clearly, we are doomed.
Today's game is on WGN. Here is the complete MLB.com Mediacenter for today.

General annotation (Comments)
Function | Proline-directed serine/threonine-protein kinase essential for neuronal cell cycle arrest and differentiation and may be involved in apoptotic cell death in neuronal diseases by triggering abortive cell cycle re-entry. Interacts with D1 and D3-type G1 cyclins. Phosphorylates SRC, NOS3, VIM/vimentin, p35/CDK5R1, MEF2A, SIPA1L1, SH3GLB1, PXN, PAK1, MCAM/MUC18, SEPT5, SYN1, DNM1, AMPH, SYNJ1, CDK16, RAC1, RHOA, CDC42, TONEBP/NFAT5, MAPT/TAU, MAP1B, histone H1, p53/TP53, HDAC1, APEX1, PTK2/FAK1, huntingtin/HTT, ATM, MAP2, NEFH and NEFM. Regulates several neuronal development and physiological processes including neuronal survival, migration and differentiation, axonal and neurite growth, synaptogenesis, oligodendrocyte differentiation, synaptic plasticity and neurotransmission, by phosphorylating key proteins. Activated by interaction with CDK5R1 (p35) and CDK5R2 (p39), especially in post-mitotic neurons, and promotes CDK5R1 (p35) expression in an autostimulation loop. Phosphorylates many downstream substrates such as Rho and Ras family small GTPases (e.g. PAK1, RAC1, RHOA, CDC42) or microtubule-binding proteins (e.g. MAPT/TAU, MAP2, MAP1B), and modulates actin dynamics to regulate neurite growth and/or spine morphogenesis. Phosphorylates also exocytosis associated proteins such as MCAM/MUC18, SEPT5, SYN1, and CDK16/PCTAIRE1 as well as endocytosis associated proteins such as DNM1, AMPH and SYNJ1 at synaptic terminals. In the mature central nervous system (CNS), regulates neurotransmitter movements by phosphorylating substrates associated with neurotransmitter release and synapse plasticity; synaptic vesicle exocytosis, vesicles fusion with the presynaptic membrane, and endocytosis. Promotes cell survival by activating anti-apoptotic proteins BCL2 and STAT3, and negatively regulating of JNK3/MAPK10 activity. Phosphorylation of p53/TP53 in response to genotoxic and oxidative stresses enhances its stabilization by preventing ubiquitin ligase-mediated proteasomal degradation, and induces transactivation of p53/TP53 target genes, thus regulating apoptosis. Phosphorylation of p35/CDK5R1 enhances its stabilization by preventing calpain-mediated proteolysis producing p25/CDK5R1 and avoiding ubiquitin ligase-mediated proteasomal degradation. During aberrant cell-cycle activity and DNA damage, p25/CDK5 activity elicits cell-cycle activity and double-strand DNA breaks that precedes neuronal death by deregulating HDAC1. DNA damage triggered phosphorylation of huntingtin/HTT in nuclei of neurons protects neurons against polyglutamine expansion as well as DNA damage mediated toxicity. Phosphorylation of PXN reduces its interaction with PTK2/FAK1 in matrix-cell focal adhesions (MCFA) during oligodendrocytes (OLs) differentiation. Negative regulator of Wnt/beta-catenin signaling pathway. Activator of the GAIT (IFN-gamma-activated inhibitor of translation) pathway, which suppresses expression of a post-transcriptional regulon of proinflammatory genes in myeloid cells; phosphorylates the linker domain of glutamyl-prolyl tRNA synthetase (EPRS) in a IFN-gamma-dependent manner, the initial event in assembly of the GAIT complex. Phosphorylation of SH3GLB1 is required for autophagy induction in starved neurons. Phosphorylation of TONEBP/NFAT5 in response to osmotic stress mediates its rapid nuclear localization. MEF2 is inactivated by phosphorylation in nucleus in response to neurotoxin, thus leading to neuronal apoptosis. APEX1 AP-endodeoxyribonuclease is repressed by phosphorylation, resulting in accumulation of DNA damage and contributing to neuronal death. NOS3 phosphorylation down regulates NOS3-derived nitrite (NO) levels. SRC phosphorylation mediates its ubiquitin-dependent degradation and thus leads to cytoskeletal reorganization. May regulate endothelial cell migration and angiogenesis via the modulation of lamellipodia formation. Involved in dendritic spine morphogenesis by mediating the EFNA1-EPHA4 signaling By similarity. Ref.5 |
Catalytic activity | ATP + a protein = ADP + a phosphoprotein. |
Enzyme regulation | Inhibited by 2-(1-ethyl-2-hydroxyethylamino)-6-benzylamino-9-isopropylpurine (roscovitine), 1-isopropyl-4-aminobenzyl-6-ether-linked benzimidazoles, resveratrol, AT-7519 and olomoucine. Activated by CDK5R1 (p35) and CDK5R2 (p39) during the development of the nervous system; degradation of CDK5R1 (p35) and CDK5R2 (p39) by proteasome result in down regulation of kinase activity, during this process, CDK5 phosphorylates p35 and induces its ubiquitination and subsequent degradation. Kinase activity is mainly determined by the amount of p35 available and subcellular location; reversible association to plasma membrane inhibits activity. Long-term inactivation as well as CDK5R1 (p25)-mediated hyperactivation of CDK5 triggers cell death. The pro-death activity of hyperactivated CDK5 is suppressed by membrane association of CDK5, via myristoylation of p35. Brain-derived neurotrophic factor, glial-derived neurotrophic factor, nerve growth factor (NGF), retinoic acid, laminin and neuregulin promote activity. Neurotoxicity enhances nuclear activity, thus leading to MEF2 phosphorylation and inhibition prior to apoptosis of cortical neurons. Repression by GSTP1 via p25/p35 translocation prevents neurodegeneration By similarity. |
Subunit structure | Heterodimer composed of a catalytic subunit CDK5 and a regulatory subunit CDK5R1 (p25) and macromolecular complex composed of at least CDK5, CDK5R1 (p35) and CDK5RAP1 or CDK5RAP2 or CDK5RAP3. Only the heterodimer shows kinase activity. Under neurotoxic stress and neuronal injury conditions, p35 is cleaved by calpain to generate p25 that hyperactivates CDK5, that becomes functionally disabled and often toxic. Found in a trimolecular complex with CABLES1 and ABL1. Interacts with CABLES1 and CABLES2 By similarity. Interacts with AATK and GSTP1. Binds to HDAC1 when in complex with p25. Interaction with myristoylation p35 promotes CDK5 association with membranes. Both isoforms 1 and 2 interacts with beta-catenin/CTNNB1. Interacts with delta-catenin/CTNND2 and APEX1. Interacts with P53/TP53 in neurons. Interacts with PTK2/FAK1 By similarity. Interacts with EPHA4; may mediate the activation of NGEF by EPHA4. Ref.3 Ref.4 |
Subcellular location | Cytoplasm By similarity. Cell membrane; Peripheral membrane protein By similarity. Perikaryon By similarity. Cell projection › lamellipodium By similarity. Cell projection › growth cone By similarity. Nucleus By similarity. Cell junction › synapse › postsynaptic cell membrane › postsynaptic density By similarity. Note: In axonal growth cone with extension to the peripheral lamellipodia By similarity. Under neurotoxic stress and neuronal injury conditions, CDK5R1 (p35) is cleaved by calpain to generate CDK5R1 (p25) in response to increased intracellular calcium. The elevated level of p25, when in complex with CDK5, leads to its subcellular misallocation as well as its hyperactivation. Colocalizes with CTNND2 in the cell body of neuronal cells, and with CTNNB1 in the cell-cell contacts and plasma membrane of undifferentiated and differentiated neuroblastoma cells. Reversibly attached to the plasma membrane in an inactive form when complexed to dephosphorylated p35 or CDK5R2 (p39), p35 phosphorylation releases this attachment and activates CDK5 By similarity. Ref.4 |
Tissue specificity | Expressed predominantly in post-mitotic neurons of the central and peripheral nervous system. |
Post-translational modification | Phosphorylation on Tyr-15 by ABL1 and FYN, and on Ser-159 by casein kinase 1 promotes kinase activity. By contrast, phosphorylation at Thr-14 inhibits activity By similarity. Phosphorylation at Ser-159 is essential for maximal catalytic activity By similarity. |
Sequence similarities | Belongs to the protein kinase superfamily. CMGC Ser/Thr protein kinase family. CDC2/CDKX subfamily. Contains 1 protein kinase domain. |

I don't have the time to watch your youtube, but would simply like to post a question or two for discussion.
Considering we trade either A) Cpt Jack or B) Wallace
If A occurs:
Most likely Hendo would be starting at the 2. He's shown far more in his minutes this season than last season, but would you give him the starting reigns?
Could we possibly package Cpt Jack with Diaw for a solid/good center? Or just Jack himself for some solid C.
B occurs:
Who starts? UPS shifts to starting, or Jack moves to the 3, with Hendo to the 2.
Who would we target if we trade away Wallace? I doubt he's untouchable, but hes as damn untouchable as they come in a LB team

how can this be on newgrounds this thing sucks like wtf? it suck donkey shit its pointless and the animation sucks like wtf? this is the worst video i have ever seen!
Rated 2.5 / 5 stars October 18, 2009
It could've been better... but randomness rocks xD
Randomness, is cool.
...a bit of a sucky plot line though. As a game, it was slightly fun... but as a video...
err... I think you get what I'm saying. I'm not going to let the inner critic loose on this one, because thats a much harsher me.
but, randomness does earn you points :P nice. 5/10
Rated 3.5 / 5 stars April 22, 2009
This was the most silliest Clock flash i've seen just the randomness along with the silly animation to go with some crazy 80s song i never heard of and it all was said and done when the tornado came up and blew away Strawberry Clock i got a lot of laughs from this silly Clock flash,nice job.
Rated 3 / 5 stars September 25, 2008

This was fairly okay.
Nice interactivity.
Rated 2 / 5 stars March 6, 2008
Heh, heh..
I suppose you could call this submission the submission that puts a veil over our eyes, I found it really quite a nice submission, what with the whole game aspect of it, but I also found the submission other then that to be quite lame and boring. The story was dumb and did not entertain at all. The game aspect of it did bring this up, but other then that this really wasn't good.

Request for Home Hydrogen Refueling Systems and Potential H-Prize Topics Issued
The U.S. Department of Energy's Fuel Cell Technologies Office has issued a Request for Information seeking feedback from stakeholders about a potential H-Prize competition involving home hydrogen refueling systems. These systems would provide supplemental hydrogen for vehicle fueling at single- or multi-family dwellings, using feedstocks commonly delivered to most residences (e.g., electricity and natural gas). Information regarding individual components of the systems are of interest, but responses regarding complete systems (including the hydrogen generation technology and the components required for refueling, including compression and filling equipment) are of particular interest.
For details, see the
RFI announcement for DE-FOA-0000907
. Comments must be provided by no later than 5:00 p.m. EDT on May 24, 2013.
Learn more >>
The H-Prize, enacted by Congress, authorized the Secretary of Energy to create a program to competitively award cash prizes that will advance the commercial application of hydrogen energy technologies by dramatizing and incentivizing accelerated research. The H-Prize was originally established by the Energy Independence and Security Act of 2007, in Sec. 654.
There are several H-Prize categories, including production, storage, distribution, utilization, and prototypes and transformational technologies.
The H-Prize is managed by the Fuel Cell Technologies Program in the U.S. Department of Energy. DOE is the lead Federal agency for directing activities in hydrogen and fuel cell R&D, and the FCT Program is responsible for coordinating activities. It is designed to help the U.S. achieve a diverse, secure and emissions-free energy future by improving efficiency, reducing oil imports and reducing greenhouse gas emissions.
The Hydrogen Education Foundation, H-Prize administrator, promotes clean hydrogen energy technologies through student scholarships, innovative national competitions, and educational programs to encourage environmental stewardship, improve energy security, and create green jobs. The HEF objectives are to:
create a pilot award process
organize and manage a comprehensive fund raising program to leverage Federal funding
deploy H-Prize funds through fair and open competition
focus on critical technical challenges

Short-run and Long-run Expectations of the Yen/Dollar Exchange Rate
The survey data on the yen/dollar exchange rate, collected twice a month for eight years from 1985 to 1993, shows the following features. First, the expected exchange rate changes in the short horizon (one month) are of the band-wagon type while the expected changes in the long horizon (three to six months) are of the mean- reversion type. That is, foreign exchange traders infer from recent appreciations or depreciation that the recent change in the exchange rate will continue for a while, but the direction of changes will reverse, eventually. Second, this result is robust for the entire sample period, which includes sub-periods of sharp yen appreciations and of relative calm, and with respect to different specifications. Third, the deviation from an equilibrium exchange rate does not yield a robust estimate in the regression of expectation formation. Although the history of the yen/dollar exchange rate fluctuations in the past two decades shows mean reversion over several years, they are not captured in the six-month expectations in the survey data.Download Info

The BookBook for iPhone 5 - Where Style and Function Come Together
Finding a case that has true style coupled with functionality these days is not easy. Twelvesouth's BookBook case for iPhone 5, however, takes these qualities and puts them all into a wonderful, hand-made work of art. The case features genuine leather and gives the user a solution for holding their iPhone 5 and wallet contents all in one package.
There are 4 different slots for credit cards, IDs, library passes, or other credit card-shaped objects. The front-most slot is intended for an ID, such as a driver's license, as it includes a transparent plastic overlay so you can see the ID through the slot. There is also a hole in the center to make it easy to push your ID out of the slot if you need to get it out of the BookBook case. Behind all of the card slots, there is a massive pocket where you can hold items such as money, receipts, and other thin items you might carry around in your wallet.
The actual iPhone snaps into a snap-on shell on the right side of the BookBook. It has a suede-like feel to it, however it's as hard as any plastic snap-on case. It holds onto your iPhone very tight so you never have to worry about it falling out. You can also see that no part of the case covers the front of the iPhone (unless you close the BookBook), so you have 100% access to the touch screen, home button, front-facing camera, and front-facing speaker.
As far as your iPhone's volume controls are concerned, the BookBook case gives you complete access to the volume up and volume down buttons, and the ringer/silent switch is also easily accessible. It's nice how there is no part of the case covering this area at all, like in some cases where the volume buttons are covered and the switch is shown through a small hole in the case, because you don't have to have long fingernails to get to the switch.
The iPhone's power button is easily accessible from the top of the BookBook case as well:
Users will also find that the unobtrusive bottom of the BookBook case makes just about all of your accessories compatible. We had no problem getting any of our speakers or headphones to plug into the headphone jack, and the lightning connector is as open as can be. You have full access to the bottom speaker and microphone thanks to this open design as well, which helps with keeping sound crisp and clear.
The open edge of the BookBook case from the side (no access to SIM):
The camera also has a roomy space to shine through the case. There is a large hole that accommodates not only the lens, but also the rear-facing microphone and LED flash, so there are no issues getting the perfect picture when you need your camera most.
The binding of the BookBook case looks just like an old library book. It says "Vol V" because it's for the iPhone 5. It comes out of the box with a well-worn appearance, which gives it the aged and stylish look. It's not actually worn, as these are just coloring effects. You can, however, wear it with use to get a more realistic well-worn appearance, and Twelvesouth applauds well-worn BookBook cases, as a slip of paper within the box states:
Scuffs and wrinkles? Great. Scratches and stains on your Book Book? Congrats! In fact, we actually like BookBook the older and more weathered it looks. Our advice on cleaning your BookBook for iPhone? Don't!
The are only two major disadvantages to the BookBook – one being that the soft interior collects lint easily (especially pocket lint), and not really a disadvantage to the BookBook, but mostly wallet cases in general, if you leave your BookBook behind somewhere by mistake, you will lose not only your iPhone, but your credit cards and IDs as well (so be careful with it!)
BookBook for iPhone 5 is not heavy, isn't made cheap, and it adds some style to your iPhone. If you've been looking into wallet cases for your iPhone 5, this case is the way to go. The BookBook for iPhone 5 retails for $59.99 on Twelvesouth's Web site and you can get one in either Classic Black or Vintage Brown. Twelvesouth also makes an iPhone 4/4S version of the case.
Due to the case being hand-made out of premium materials, feeling good in your hand, offering great protection to the iPhone, and doubling as a wallet to get that lump out of your back pocket, we're giving the BookBook for iPhone 5 four out of five leaves. Four, and not five, because it's a lint magnet.

I have one for my 4S. I love it. Works perfectly but I had to cut a hole in mine for my camera. Other than that it works just like you would think. Nice thing is that I dont need a separate wallet.

I bought mine the second day after the release, it look better than the one that I had for my iPhone 4, the frame that holds the iPhone is covered with leather so you don't have to worry about scratching your iPhone 5 frame. The bad thing is that after one month of use, that frame that holds the iPhone is starting to pill off the leather in the top, hopefully they offer one year of warranty, Im waiting till it pill off a little more so I can send it to them back for a replacement, I think they need to fix that, the same thing is going to happen with the replacement I guess.

One other problem is that the plastic from the drivers license part will smear onto your phone making it look greasy leaving a smudge No matter how much/hard you clean it. But on the other hand it doesnt scratch at all.

World Scout Jamboree in Sweden proves life changing for scouts
39000 scouts from around the world congregated together between the 27th of July to the 7th of August to share new experiences and uninterrupted fun in Rinkaby, Sweden, as they took part in the 22nd World Scout Jamboree. With special appearances by UK Scout Association President Bear Grylls, key note speakers like H.M. Queen Silvia of Sweden and the opportunity to go camping with H.M. King Carl Gustaf of Sweden, many scouts reported this Jamboree to be a life changing experience!
The word "Jamboree" was derived from the Swahili word "jambo" which means "hello" in English. This is precisely what scouts did during the Jamboree, immersing themselves in different cultures and actively learning about sustainability issues, along with empowering themselves with tools to be better global citizens. Some of their activities included participating as Indiana Jones in an obstacle course, exploring the underworld of caves, and living in the past with Vikings within the Medieval world. At night scouts explored forests, forcing them to use their skills and abilities to make informed choices. Scouts here learned not just about themselves but about people from all over the world, embracing the diversity of our planet.
Scouts also experienced first hand the ability of different faith communities to co-exist peacefully and learn how to live in tolerance and harmony. Important issues like the role of Scouting in eradicating poverty and the importance of duty to God as a scout were also discussed in the Jamboree Forum with famous keynote speakers including H.M. Queen Silvia of Sweden.
Scouts also embraced spontaneous activities at the Jamboree like encountering jugglers, playing games, trying their hand at scout bingo or other fun opportunities. Scouts even trekked to the nearby Baltic Sea for a day at the beach or visited the town of Kristianstad to experience the atmosphere of an historic Swedish city.
As UK Scout Association President Bear Grylls said at the opening ceremony of the World Scout Jamboree, "We're part of something so special...we're part of 28 million scouts around the world. That is a world wide force of good, encouraging people like you to make a difference." Scouts at the Jamboree armed themselves to do just that, experiencing the daily excitement of "Simply Scouting" at the Jamboree.

The Future of Online Mobile Advertising Has Wheels
<< by Tad Miller on March 26th, 2010
A few years ago I was on a Panel Discussion at the Online Marketing Summit and a question was asked of the panel "What is the future on online advertising ten years from now?" It honestly had marketing managers from IBM and Home Depot a little stumped. But I had an answer. The future on online advertising isn't on your computer. It's on your refrigerator, it's in your car, it's in the everyday devices that we use have could potentially have a hard drive and a wireless Internet connection.
I've been envisioning the car of the future for years, and not in a horsepower or miles per gallon sense. I envision hard drive space, processing power and wireless Internet connectivity as the automotive options of the future. The key to all of this becoming a reality is finding a safe way to integrate computer interaction with driving. The windshield is the only safe place to make this happen, and now it is becoming a reality. General Motors recently released details on an Augmented Reality Windshield.

Tell us what you think...
The community thinks...
by Mike Munising, Michigan on 08/31/2011.
Trim: 2009 Chevrolet Aveo LT2, Owned 2 years.
I have two Aveo"s, 2005 and 2009, so you can see I like them. I live in snow country (shore of Lake Superior in Michigan) the only problem is on snow covered roads (three inches or more) I can get stuck. I solved the problem by putting snow tires all the way around and it has made a hugh difference as well as the handling on just snow covered roads (one inch or less). I reccomend the Aveo (I have two) and I will purchase another when it comes time.
Not good in the snow unless you put on snow tires all the way around!

It is the best car since they quit making the Metro

Trim: 2009 Chevrolet Aveo LT, Owned less than 1 year.
We originally bought the Aveo as a "go to town" car but now find we drive it all the time. We love it!. The roominess of the interior is is deceiving and definately an added pleasure. This car is fun to drive, scooting in and out of traffic and tight parking spaces like nobodys business. The freeway is no problem as far as entering traffic or passing other vehicles. We have no regrets about buying this car and have no reservations recommending it to others.
The estimated mpg is a little over rated, but maybe my lead foot's to blame for that. No dislikes yet...knock on wood!
Overall review:
We bought our Aveo off the showroom floor, so we didn't have much say as far as the options we wanted. Ours didn't come with power windows,mirrors or door locks which we would recommend and miss on ours. It did however, come with 18" chrome rims and Goodyear low profile F1 tires which are great in the rain. Here's a must for all Aveo owners. Install a K&N filter and I guarantee you will be pleasantly surprised. Even my wife noticed the increase in power.

Handles great and very roomy for smaller car. Great gas milage. Love the On-Star&Stereo System . Large trunk and fold down rear seats a big plus for me.
Does not have auto locks when you go out of park
Overall review:
Very impressed with my Aveo as this is my second smaller car. My first was a Ply. Horizon but the Aveo is far superior. Would highly recommend the aveo for anyone looking for a smaller car.

Size and economy.
Just bought my second one.
I trade every 3-4 years.
'04 hatchback ran fine/
Previously owned two Geo Metro's.
Aveo is quite an UPGRADE.
Perception of the general public and consumer guides towards this highly underated vehicle.
Overall review:
For someone secure in themselves, even if you could afford "more" car, but aren't snobbish, this is just great tramsportation. If I have to move something really big, I rent a truck, SUV, or whatever meets my extended, temporary needs. But how often does one need an 8 ft bed,
passenger seating for 10, or any other situation?
I am not at all against big trucks or cars, if they are NEEDED.
I can carry four, or have lots of room to carry my bicycle because of folding back seat.

Customer notes
If you like the game, buy the Zombies. soundtrack here!
An isometric rampage through the deep, dark, dungeons of bureaucracy. Claw your way through hideous swarms of Project Managers as they spew buzzwords and tasks at you. Zombies. The only zombie game that's not about zombies.
- Entirely destructible world of offices, carparks, and rooftops full of things to throw, smash, and light on fire
- Tasteless amount of bloodsplatter
- Wickedly sharp chip-house soundtrack
- "Endless Mode" - survive and protect a stolen bail-out cheque from management who would use it to buy gold plated yachts
- Violent weapons and a slew of ridiculous, grotesque enemies
- Brain-dead bosses who spew scathing insults, buzzword vomit, golf clubs, and red tape at you
- Pixel art, and a dry sense of humour. So dry.
Customer reviews
For the discounted $2.99 I got it for, it was really enjoyable
EqualsNorr | Oct. 13, 2013 | See all EqualsNorr's reviews »It was entertaining, its dialogue and storyline made me chuckle more than a few times, and above all the soundtrack used greatly complimented the actual gameplay. Even if you don't like pixel/zombie games that much, this game does a really good job at being smooth both in visuals and in mechanics as well. It seems like the game would get repetitive at some point, but for me it never really did; there seems to be some new element each level preventing the game from feeling like it's looping.
Price to gameplay ratio verdict: Definitely worth it. I own it on iOS as well, but it's best played on the PC.
An indie game with pixels and zombies, that's ACTUALLY unique.
BubbaSquare | Oct. 1, 2013 | See all BubbaSquare's reviews »In an era where pixel-based games (because they're so easy to design and make) and zombie games (stupefied AI, making them easier to program) are all the rave, I feel most consumers feel burnt out with the idea of both of them. This game is an exception, however. The amount of soothing, calm fun I had with this game really impressed me. And trust me, I'm usually not a fan of either pixel-based OR zombie games, but I believe this to be a good game that is fairly unique. I reccomend a buy and try!
Totally Awesome! 8-Bit Game and Groovy Music
leonstars | July 10, 2013 | See all leonstars's reviews »Awesome! game and great music best 8 bit zombie game i played addicting!
cool weapons, funny, able to bash and smash stuff
it is a must try zombie game
Fun Game and Awesome Music
Xflasher | July 6, 2013 | See all Xflasher's reviews »It is an awesome game where there is mayhem everywhere as you rescue people, kill zombies and destroy stuff in an 8-bit graphic style with an awesome OST. I would recommend this.
One of the funniest games Ever!
Elanigiro | July 4, 2013 | See all Elanigiro's reviews »Great dialogues, nice graphic style, huge amount of irony and most of all Billions of zombies. The soundtrack is absolutely perfect and the gameplay is never boring. Recommended to everyone

JAMESTOWN Once the property and playground of the rich, the Newbold Estate near Irvine, Pa., is now a designated recreation area of the Allegheny National Forest. Located at the junction of the Allegheny River and Brokenstraw Creek, its extensive, easy-to-hike trails are filled with ancient mossy trees and abundant wildflowers.
The Jamestown and Presque Isle Audubon Societies are teaming up to lead a trip to the Newbold Estate on Saturday. The walk will be co-hosted by Jeff Tome of Jamestown Audubon and Lee Ann Reiners of Presque Isle Audubon.
Anyone interested in participating can meet at the estate at 10 a.m. for a hike of about an hour and a half. To add a more challenging afternoon hike, bring a lunch and plan to venture into the neighboring old growth forest of the state-owned Anders Run Natural Area, where additional varieties of wildflowers can be seen.

Virginia Bluebells are one of the early spring wildflowers that can be found at the Newbold Estate, the destination of the Jamestown and Presque Isle Audubon Societies' wildflowers field trip.
To get to the Newbold Estate, from Warren take Route 6 West to Route 62 South. Once off the exit, take the second right towards Irvine. Turn left at the Y and drive past the sign for Ander's Run. Go around the corner and down the hill to park near the stone cottage.
The fee is $5 for Audubon members and $7 for non-members.

Industry Watch
We need to coin a new term: a measure of constant change that exceeds the pace of ``internet time'' to such a degree that it embodies Heisenbergian uncertainty: it's changing so fast you can't say what it is. Because that's what's happening in the embedded space, where developers are picking up Linux faster than slang.
How about Unreal Time? Or Interbed Time? Hmm. Not quite right. How about Protoreal Time? I like that one. In Greek proto means first. It's the root of prototype. It also suggests protean, the adjective for shape-changing derived from the Greek sea god, Proteus, who could assume many forms. Protoreal puts change in the domain of reality, a fundamental concept to people who design stuff they call ``real time''. In fact, time isn't the only proteal variable. So is space.
Business folks like to call categories ``spaces'', whether they are real or not. Such is the case with the embedded Linux ``space''. The virtue of Linux to embedded developers is it radically reduces the threshold for designing, prototyping and making all kinds of stuff, and equipping that stuff to use the Net--the prevailing environment for pretty much everything that can conceivably find a reason to use it, which is pretty much everything, period.
The same goes for BSD, by the way. Both Linux and BSD are forms of UNIX that grow wild in nature, rather than in the private habitats where captive OS species have been bred by their owners in relative isolation for private purposes.
This threshold-reducing power is not well understood by those whose knowledge of operating systems, however extensive, is informed mostly by the domesticated varieties. These folks think that well-bred operating systems help their owners ``capture'' or ``control'' some market ``space''.
For example, in a May 4, 2001 ZDNet story by Richard Simm, IDC analyst Kevin Burden says the Linux PDA ``market'' is ``fragmented and new''. He also says, ``Without a standard OS, devices may not be able to speak to each other or use the same software, essentially making them islands when it comes to sharing information, and that is a big detriment.'' He also adds, ``The key to any OS is application support. Without it, you're starting from ground zero with every OS and device using that OS.''
This ignores the infrastructural context in which every operating system now lives: the ubiquitous world of protocols like HTTP, XML and TCP/IP. These protocols were ubiquitized by their wild and free nature. Every species of Linux and BSD are native to that world's (the Net's) ecosystem. In fact, to a significant degree, they define it.
The last I looked there were eight Linux-based PDAs and three Linux distributions intended for PDAs, not counting Linux itself, which any manufacturer is free to hack into any shape they like (and which, in most cases, is exactly what they do). Meanwhile Palm has one OS and two manufacturers (none Palm is willing to name, other than itself), while Microsoft has one OS with a pile of OEMs. As for applications, AgendaComputing, makers of the ``pure Linux'' Agenda PDA, says a ``couple thousand'' developers are working on Linux PDA apps, and the AgendaVR was targeted to roll out in May 2001.
Credit where due: both Palm and Microsoft are very good at their businesses, or they wouldn't be so successful. But their OSes don't grow on trees. Linux does. So does BSD. And therein lies the advantage--not for those OSes (which no vendor owns) but for you.
If you want to make a PDA, there's less to stop you in Linux and BSD than in any vendor-owned operating system. There's also less to stop you from remaking that PDA. And remaking it again. And again. There is also a growing multitude of folks ready to help, even if all they do is share their hacks on the Net. In other words, most of your OS-related resources also grow on trees.
PDAs are just one obvious embedded morphology. Thanks to Linux it's a lot easier to make, and remake, anything. So what if some designs use Linux while others use BSD or Windows CE or Palm OS? Out here in Nature, applications do matter--but communications matter more. If two devices are exchanging XML streams over TCP/IP stacks, does it matter which operating systems are involved? It only matters if those OSes impede functionality or slow down the rate at which their makers can innovate.
Here's another angle on the matter: if you're living and working in protoreality, nothing softens space and speeds up time better than wild and free OSes like Linux and BSD. And if there is, we'd love to write about it.
Speaking of that, I like the word protoreal so much I bought the domain name. If you can think of a good way for us to use it, let me know (email@example.com). If not, it was still a protoreal move to make.

For many IT organizations, Linux is a mainstay for deploying Web servers and has evolved from handling basic file, print, and utility workloads to running mission-critical applications and databases, physically, virtually, and in the cloud. As Linux grows in importance in terms of value to the business, managing Linux environments to high standards of service quality — availability, security, and performance — becomes an essential requirement for business success.

If you already use virtualized infrastructure, you are well on your way to leveraging the power of the cloud. Virtualization offers the promise of limitless resources, but how do you manage that scalability when your DevOps team doesn't scale? In today's hypercompetitive markets, fast results can make a difference between leading the pack vs. obsolescence. Organizations need more benefits from cloud computing than just raw resources. They need agility, flexibility, convenience, ROI, and control.
Stackato private Platform-as-a-Service technology from ActiveState extends your private cloud infrastructure by creating a private PaaS to provide on-demand availability, flexibility, control, and ultimately, faster time-to-market for your enterprise.

Actually, devices are currently being developed (and I think actually already exist) that are portable charging stations. So yes - if your Chevy Volt runs out of "juice" your "friend" could bring you more "juice."
Great news, huh?
