A Model for Photoreceptor-Based Magnetoreception in Birds Biophysical Journal, Volume 78, Issue 2, 1 February 2000, Pages 707-718 Thorsten Ritz, Salih Adem and Klaus Schulten Abstract A large variety of animals has the ability to sense the geomagnetic field and utilize it as a source of directional (compass) information. It is not known by which biophysical mechanism this magnetoreception is achieved. We investigate the possibility that magnetoreception involves radical-pair processes that are governed by anisotropic hyperfine coupling between (unpaired) electron and nuclear spins. We will show theoretically that fields of geomagnetic field strength and weaker can produce significantly different reaction yields for different alignments of the radical pairs with the magnetic field. As a model for a magnetic sensory organ we propose a system of radical pairs being 1) orientationally ordered in a molecular substrate and 2) exhibiting changes in the reaction yields that affect the visual transduction pathway. We evaluate three-dimensional visual modulation patterns that can arise from the influence of the geomagnetic field on radical-pair systems. The variations of these patterns with orientation and field strength can furnish the magnetic compass ability of birds with the same characteristics as observed in behavioral experiments. We propose that the recently discovered photoreceptor cryptochrome is part of the magnetoreception system and suggest further studies to prove or disprove this hypothesis.

Magnetoreception through Cryptochrome May Involve Superoxide Biophysical Journal, Volume 96, Issue 12, 17 June 2009, Pages 4804-4813 Ilia A. Solov'yov and Klaus Schulten Abstract In the last decades, it has been demonstrated that many animal species orient in the Earth magnetic field. One of the best-studied examples is the use of the geomagnetic field by migratory birds for orientation and navigation. However, the biophysical mechanism underlying animal magnetoreception is still not understood. One theory for magnetoreception in birds invokes the so-called radical-pair model. This mechanism involves a pair of reactive radicals, whose chemical fate can be influenced by the orientation with respect to the magnetic field of the Earth through Zeeman and hyperfine interactions. The fact that the geomagnetic field is weak, i.e., ∼0.5 G, puts a severe constraint on the radical pair that can establish the magnetic compass sense. For a noticeable change of the reaction yield in a redirected geomagnetic field, the hyperfine interaction has to be as weak as the Earth field Zeeman interaction, i.e., unusually weak for an organic compound. Such weak hyperfine interaction can be achieved if one of the radicals is completely devoid of this interaction as realized in a radical pair containing an oxygen molecule as one of the radicals. Accordingly, we investigate here a possible radical pair-based reaction in the photoreceptor cryptochrome that reduces the protein's flavin group from its signaling state FADH• to the inactive state FADH– (which reacts to the likewise inactive FAD) by means of the superoxide radical, O2•–. We argue that the spin dynamics in the suggested reaction can act as a geomagnetic compass and that the very low physiological concentration (nM-μM) of otherwise toxic O2•– is sufficient, even favorable, for the biological function.

Acuity of a Cryptochrome and Vision-Based Magnetoreception System in Birds Biophysical Journal, Volume 99, Issue 1, 7 July 2010, Pages 40-49 Ilia A. Solov'yov, Henrik Mouritsen and Klaus Schulten Abstract The magnetic compass of birds is embedded in the visual system and it has been hypothesized that the primary sensory mechanism is based on a radical pair reaction. Previous models of magnetoreception have assumed that the radical pair-forming molecules are rigidly fixed in space, and this assumption has been a major objection to the suggested hypothesis. In this article, we investigate theoretically how much disorder is permitted for the radical pair-forming, protein-based magnetic compass in the eye to remain functional. Our study shows that only one rotational degree of freedom of the radical pair-forming protein needs to be partially constrained, while the other two rotational degrees of freedom do not impact the magnetoreceptive properties of the protein. The result implies that any membrane-associated protein is sufficiently restricted in its motion to function as a radical pair-based magnetoreceptor. We relate our theoretical findings to the cryptochromes, currently considered the likeliest candidate to furnish radical pair-based magnetoreception. Abstract | Full Text | PDF (708 kb) |

Certain migratory birds can sense the Earth's magnetic field. The nature of this process is not yet properly understood. Here we offer a simple explanation according to which birds literally see the local magnetic field through the impact of a physical rather than a chemical signature of the radical pair: a transient, long-lived electric dipole moment. Based on this premise, our picture can explain recent surprising experimental data indicating long lifetimes for the radical pair. Moreover, there is a clear evolutionary path toward this field-sensing mechanism: it is an enhancement of a weak effect that may be present in many species.

How did the teams perform?

Benzema played well but the finishing on the pass from Ronaldo was terrible. He has provided Real with the winning goal on more than a couple of occasions and we cant expect him to do it every time. Real were very unlucky, not rubbish but not awesome too. I want to see Benzema, Kaka and Adebayor score heaps of goals, not that its easy but its frustrating!
once again a poor 'how did the teams perform'.... if madrid get anything ss than a win, 90% of people say they were rubbish, but when i watched the match, they played great, some of you guys are very biased instead of actual footballing knowledge
It's sad to see Real Madrid lose another match they should have won, especially when it happens for the second time in two weeks. Ronaldo hasn't scored in 4 matches but he did hit the woodwork 4 times .. Aranzubia made some beautiful saves and gets lucky at the one moment where he needs it. I wouldn't say god is against us, but he's definitely not giving us a break :D We'll come back and we'll win at least 1 trophy this season. Next season we'll be unstoppable but until then god has to give us a break now, we've had enough bad luck ..
First an injury time goal and now a fantastic clean sheet against the firing squad of Real Madrid, Daniel Aranzubia has written himself into Depor folklore this week.
Player of the week for me!
Player of the week for me!
I wish they would of shown some of Deportivo's touches. Definitely one sided highlights. Benzema keeps missing these easy looking chances.
It's disappointing to see the "How did the teams perform" ratings because they are completely inaccurate. I'm am not a Madrid supporter but i can at least recognize that their perfomance was not 'rubbish', they actually played fairly well and created many scoring chances. When you rate the performance don't let your personal distaste for a team get in the way (that's what the comments are for).
Well, Barca tied with Gijon and they still got rubbish votes.
i guess big teams that can't scores are considered rubbish here! LOL:)
i guess big teams that can't scores are considered rubbish here! LOL:)
agreed they were not rubbish but they really should have won this match so thats why they got the votes im assuming.
That's probably the reason yeah. @ Tazbir & Borg : Thanks for recongnizing the fact luck isn't on our side but especially for recognizing the football we play.
Lyon would definitely have to be more than giants if they are to go through as it would be in Madrid and with today's display and the team's commitment to do well and get results it would be more than tough (almost impossible) for Lyon.

< Return To Hearing
The Honorable Orrin Hatch
United States Senator "Biometric Passports" Good morning and welcome to the hearing on biometric passports. Since last fall, this Committee has held eight oversight hearings that substantially focus on our Nation's efforts to prevent and respond to terrorism on American soil. The purpose of these hearings is to make sure that the United States government is taking every possible step to protect this country and its citizens from the evil intentions of terrorists, and that every available resource is focused toward that end. Implementation of the biometric passport program will be an important resource in our fight against terrorism, and we should be vigilant in our efforts to fully implement the program. Today, we focus our attention on the biometric passport requirement set out in the "Enhanced Border Security and Visa Entry Reform Act." This legislation provided crucial tools to tighten immigration procedures and close loopholes in our border security which were, in my view, of paramount importance after the catastrophic attacks this Nation suffered on September the 11th, 2001. I was proud to be an original cosponsor of this legislation, and am disappointed that more than two years after its enactment, we are faced with the reality that the biometric passport deadline of October 26, 2004 will not be met. Now, I understand that when we called for the development and inclusion of biometric passports, the fundamental technologies were not yet mature. Nonetheless, many of us believed that we needed cutting-edge technology in order to thwart the increasingly sophisticated terrorists. This mandate has presented difficult challenges for the many capable scientists and technicians who have dedicated themselves to this effort. But we can - and must - demand that the countries who participate in the Visa Waiver Program begin producing and distributing these passports. Every day that biometric identifiers are not utilized, our country and its citizens are more vulnerable to terrorist attacks. I strongly urge the Department of State and Department of Homeland Security to work with these participating countries in the upcoming months to establish an interoperable system for biometric passports. I have spoken to Secretary of State Powell concerning the importance of the biometric passport issue, and during his testimony before this Committee last week, Secretary Ridge also emphasized the importance of this issue. Both of these men, whom I highly respect, have requested a two-year extension to the current biometric passport deadline of October 26th, 2004. However, I am concerned with the national security implications that such a lengthy extension may cause. Frankly, I would like to inquire why a one-year extension is not feasible for implementation of the biometric passport program. As this deadline extension has implications on our national security, I hope that our witnesses today can fully explain to this Committee the reasons for extending the current biometric passport deadline. Today, the Committee will hear from two panels of witness testimony. The first panel consists of testimony by the Honorable Maria Cantwell, Senator from the state of Washington. I would like to welcome Senator Cantwell, who was a cosponsor of the Enhanced Border Security and Visa Entry Reform Act. I know that she feels strongly about this issue, and I thank her for taking the time to appear before the Committee. The second panel consists of testimony by the Honorable Asa Hutchinson, Under Secretary for Border and Transportation Security at the Department of Homeland Security, and the Honorable Maura Harty, Assistant Secretary for Consular Affairs at the Department of State. I welcome them to the Committee, and appreciate their testimony on this important issue of national security. |

Great quality sponge balls! Everyone needs a spongeball routine and so everyone needs spongeballs- I

Excuse the vulgar title. Goshman has always produced the most high quality, amazing sponge balls
ever. They are obviously super soft and bouncy, as well as squishy. When they are in your assistants
hands, they bounce up and really make the effect dominant that the effect REALLY HAPPENED. They
don't tear easily either. I've owned sponges that tore as soon as you pulled on them and they
weren't worth it. But these are super soft and really cool. Plus some of them feel a little grungy
in your hands and they feel awkward. These also don't compress down in your pockets as much.

This is a topic that many of us know a lot about! It is generally shocking when women are told, or discover on their own, that many/most gain weight during adjuvant chemotherapy for breast cancer. Not that anyone covets the bald skeletal look, but we do generally assume that we actually might drop a pesky pound or two, and that might be the only positive aspect of the chemo months. Wrong. There surely are a few women who have that experience, but most of us find that the scale moves in the other--upwards--direction. There are a number of reasons for this reality: we probably are exercising less and are generally less active; chemotherapy tends to slow metabolism; we may well nibble/graze all day as generally we feel better with a non-empty stomach. (Odd thing re chemo stomach: You don't really feel better if you eat, but you feel worse if you don't.)
The second unfortunate reality about these new pounds is that they are tough to lose. Once the chemo ends, they absolutely do not just drop off. Instead, many women begin one of the endocrine/hormonal treatments (tamoxifen or an AI) and find that another five pounds or so suddenly appear around waist and hips.
This is a fact sheet from the American Cancer Society to tell you more about what you already know:
The American Cancer Society
July 05, 2012 By Michele Szfranski, MS, RD, CSO, LDN
When I talk with people who have gained weight during their cancer treatment, they are often shocked. For people who lost considerable weight before their diagnosis and then felt better once their treatment started, weight gain can be a welcome change. But more often I speak with people who were at a healthy weight or overweight before treatment and did not realize that their treatment might cause some weight gain.
Causes of weight gain
Many of the cancer patients with hormone based cancers like breast or prostate I speak to are surprised when they find they have gained weight after their treatments. Men on anti-androgen (hormone deprivation) therapy often gain weight in the first year of treatment. Women treated with adjuvant chemotherapy or who experience onset of menopause are most likely to experience weight gain.
Gaining weight after being diagnosed can give these patients a higher risk of the cancer returning. In fact, a recent study showed that men who gained about 5 pounds (2.2 kg) in the years after prostatectomy had higher rates of recurrence than those with stable weight. And for breast cancer, studies also suggest that weight gain after treatment can increase recurrence risk and decrease survival.
There are many factors that might contribute to weight gain with treatment of any cancer. Fatigue, a common side effect of chemo and radiation, can lead to less physical activity, which means fewer calories burned. Many people who have nausea, another common side effect, find that always having something in their stomach can help to keep it settled. Others eat more when they feel stressed out, and if having cancer isn't stressful, I don't know what is. Hormone changes or medications may cause people to feel hungry or retain water. Well-meaning loved ones may encourage patients to "eat, eat, eat" out of fear that they may lose weight.

UA coach Rodriguez: Like vs. Oregon, Wildcats need ASU to 'help out a little bit' to win
"Listen, if we execute and play with great effort and they help us out a little bit, we can win a lot of games and beat anybody," he told his players following the Wildcats' ugly loss to Washington State in Tucson.
"And that's what happened," he explained to the Doug and Wolf show on Tuesday as he recapped the win.
The Arizona players, and the seniors, in particular -- who were taking the field at Arizona Stadium for the final time of their careers -- Rodriguez explained, had legitimate hope for an upset over the No. 5 Ducks, buying into their coach's pitch earlier in the week.
"I think they had a belief that they would win," the second-year coach explained. "But I don't think it was until it started developing that they truly started developing, and as the game went on they got more and more confidence. And then by the end of the game, they were really feeling it."
In other words, initial buy-in was the prerequisite and good fortune practically did the rest, reinforcing the team's belief.
"I think it's a lesson to our guys -- (something) that we had talked about the week before," Rodriguez told the show.
"We're not good enough to play poorly and win, but if we play well, and we execute, we've got a chance," he said.
An upset win versus in-state rival Arizona State -- currently 11.5-point favorites -- on Saturday at Sun Devil Stadium will require the same recipe, the coach said. And a second straight such win, Rodriguez seemed to indicate, would partially depend on the Sun Devils' mistakes.
"We've got to play well again Saturday and they've got to help us out a little bit, and we'll see what happens."

It was our pleasure to stay at Jon & Christine appartment during our visit to San Francisco. They were excellent hosts and we highly recommend them to other guests.
Staying here was awesome! They were very hospitable and the back yard is amazing! Gorgeous, green and full of nature. The set up of the rental space was set up really nicely for travelers that were new to the SF area. Overall, a 10.
We had a great stay in Jon & Christine's apartment. It's in a very quiet neighbourhood but with plenty of shopping and eating choices and good transport links a short walk away, in a great location for Golden Gate Park. The five of us (two adults, three kids) fitted in comfortably, Jon was friendly and helpful, all in all it was exactly what we were looking for. Highly recommended!
This is my second stay at Jon & Christine's cozy apartment! It is incredibly convenient and in a beautiful neighborhood! It had everything we could possibly need including lovely touches like coffee, tea and popcorn! They are very responsive hosts and I hope to stay in their lovely place each time I return to San Francisco!
My friends and I enjoyed our stay. The apartment sits on a quiet street, very close to public transportation, and many restaurants. The apartment itself sleeps three people comfortably. It had the amenities we needed for a three day stay. We would rent this place again.
I stayed for three wonderful days. Very clean, spacious, well-kept-up. Everything you would need is there. The host is delightful and eager to please. I hope to return for a longer stay.
Hola, la experiencia fue exelente, el departamento confortable y su ubicacion inmejorable. Jon y Cristine de primera. Muchas gracias!! Carlos.
We used Jon & Christine's apartment for 6days. The apartment was very clean and large enough. The apartment was nice equipped especially for kichen and bathroom. It was great!!! And Jon & Christine were very talkative and kind host. We could get much information about San francisco, and huge welcoming of them.
If I can go to San franciso again, I want to use Jon & Christine's apartment again. ^^
Absolutely perfect location for what we wanted to do! Close to Presidio and Golden Gate Park….and China Town 2. Did tourist things all over the city, with easy access by driving or bus. Very comfortable accommodations. Supplied well. Jon and Christine were very accommodating to our needs. We'll use this place again…and recommend to our friends who need a place to stay in the city.
Jon and Christine were excellent hosts! They were very helpful and welcoming. The apartment was clean and had everything you could think of, including a full kitchen. The location is excellent for exploring the city and surrounding area and there are excellent restaurants nearby.

Sex and Islam do mix, but not in America
Apr 17, 2012 04:04 PM »
A good message for parents, and also about how we're turning our mosques into really abnormal places.
ps. Do NOT agree with the jane austen reference!!!
Sex and Islam do mix, but not in America
Muslim youth are asked to go from 0 to 60 mph with a spouse and 2.3 children without being taught how to start the engine
America's contradictory and passive-aggressive dalliance with sexuality is reflected within its Muslim communities. For some, it is difficult to believe that sexual organs function the same whether they are hidden behind a burqa or a bikini. As a Muslim man, I can verify that Muslims experience the same universal awkwardness of finding "hair in new places" as any other pimpled adolescent; the onslaught of puberty is precisely the time when parents need to have the "birds and the bees" talk to facilitate open lines of communication guiding them through these changes.
In many American Muslim families, however, the only lecture given is "Don't do it!". Although "it" is never defined, everyone generally understands "it" as a catch-all-provision for any first-to-fourth base activity with the opposite gender before marriage. One would assume the freedom of college would automatically cure all these societal repressions and allow parents to be more open. However, the story of comedian and journalist Aman Ali is sadly familiar to many American Muslims:
"When I started college, my mom told me: 'You're there to study, if I catch you talking to a girl, I will break your neck.' By the time I graduated, my mom told me: 'Why haven't you found any good girls to marry? You're so old!'"
To readers ignorant of Islamic religious traditions, this fits a reductive stereotype of Islam as an austere terrain of angry, bearded men who forcefully engage in joyless sex with oppressed, silent women between bouts of burning American flags and eating copious amounts of hummus. The other extreme depiction of Islamic sexuality plays out like an orientalist fantasy directed by the makers of Sex and the City 2 and features harems, hookahs, magic carpets and a pornocopia of fetishes unfit to print.
Yet Islam, as practised by the prophet Muhammad, is refreshingly candid and human in its treatment of sexuality. The hadith literature – the scholarly collections documenting the sayings, behaviours and etiquette of the prophet – provides ample evidence of this. The early followers of Islam bluntly asked the prophet about sex and marriage in order to correctly practise their new religion. Many books have been written by renowned scholars citing the prophet's healthy attitude towards sexuality, which encouraged foreplay, playfulness and compassion between consenting, married adults.
The prophetic conduct towards sex has been abandoned by several American Muslim communities, particularly those of immigrant descent, in favour of outright silence. Topics including an acknowledgement of realities such as pregnancies before marriage or adultery are rarely mentioned in many Muslim circles; the fear being that acknowledgement would act as an endorsement, validation and inspiration for unislamic sexual deviances.
During a Muslim's youth and adolescence, many elders promote repression. However, when this individual becomes a single, unmarried adult in their late 20s or 30s, they are bludgeoned with repeated commands to "settle down". Muslim youth are expected to go from 0 to 60 mph with a spouse, 2.3 kids and a suburban home without being taught how to start the engine and how to maintain the vehicle on its journey.
Sometimes, age functions as the greatest prophylactic. This is most noticeable in what is currently deemed the great "epidemic" of single, professional Muslim American women in their 30s who face a double standard. Unlike men, they are unfairly accused of forfeiting domesticity for the sake of personal ambition. As the communities have failed to establish a healthy paradigm for social interactions, there is no quick-fix solution. Thus, they are increasingly marginalised as write-offs, ultimately destined to roam forever as the single walking dead. Single Muslim men in their 30s are like Will Smith from I Am Legend – sole representatives of an increasingly extinct species wandering the wasteland in solitude and depression. The assumptions are either the man is gay, a sexually promiscuous player and thus unsuitable for marriage, or that he has issues with his "equipment".
Mosques and Muslim community centres ensure singles remain sexless. The gender dynamics displayed within many of these social environments reflect the hypocrisy and absurdity of American Muslim gender relations. The exaggerated gender segregation often found in some mosques actually engenders the exact behaviour and mindset it seeks to eliminate.
It treats single Muslims as if they are sex-depraved, ravenous beasts ready to pounce on one another like a Jane Austen heroine unleashed on her wedding night. The walls between genders – both figurative and literal – are analogues to the pink elephant. The more you're asked not to think about it, the harder it is not to.
Instead of repressing the elephant, perhaps it's time to acknowledge the elephant's existence, respectfully offer to buy it a non-alcoholic beverage, and compliment it on the size of its tusks all the while still adhering to one's religious values. There is hope that the birds and bees talk of today will evolve from "Don't do it!" to "Do it!" – in a manner that is respectful, comfortable and natural to the sensibilities of Muslim individuals and communities.

Hmm interesting article.
To this day, my parents will not even acknowledge that a "birds and bees" talk exists. I learned about everything at school.

lol i don't know if 'sex education' is the answer... but pretty sad if kids are learning from other kids at school!! but i do think the whole relating to the opposite sex/marriage/how find someone/how to get married etc is completely totally skipped over in muslim kids education.

Asian Art Museum chooses Videotel's HD2600 industrial looping DVD players
San Francisco, CA (PRWEB) February 12, 2014
For over 35 years, the Asian Art Museum in San Francisco has attracted hundreds of thousands of visitors a year. Through great art experiences, the museum has become a catalyst for discovery, dialogue and inspiration. The vision and mission of the museum has always centered on the visitor. So when the museum had a need for low profile decks in its galleries to enhance the visitor's experience, it turned to Videotel Inc. and its HD2600 digital media player to provide a reliable solution for looping content.
The HD2600 is a true commercial grade looping DVD player designed for rugged use and displays video content on any screen.

The only true industrial grade high definition, UL-approved digital media player on the market today, the HD2600 is ideal for environments that desire a cost-effective solution to engage, inform and educate visitors.
"Fortunately, we decided to purchase the HD2600 industrial dvd player for use with our exhibition displays.

Spice ports, hill stations, boat trips, tea plantations, temples and beaches!
After exploring the old spice town of Cochin we journey inland to visit the Raj town of Munnar, surrounded by tea plantations, grassland and verdant forest.
Christianity and even Judaism have left their mark on the coastal regions but it is Hinduism that dominates, producing one of India's most elaborately decorated temples at Madurai.
The wildlife sanctuaries at Eravikulam and Periyar are home to an array of wildlife and an abundance of colourful birdlife. We finish by cruising along the backwaters and lagoons of Kerala as well as relaxing on the sweeping beaches of Kovalam with the chance to try some delicious fresh seafood. This is an ideal trip for anyone looking at adventure holdays in Kerala.
What makes this trip responsible?
We have an excellent long-term relationship with the local operator who employ and train all leaders. We provide refresher training with a focus on Responsible Tourism, so our local leaders can educate our clients locally on helping to preserve the way of life in their area. Many local restaurants and shops are also used to purchase items throughout this trip which benefis the local community.

The Graves County Truck Pullers Association's sixth annual truck and tractor pull drew thousands of spectators to the Mayfield-Graves County Fairgrounds Saturday night, Sept. 14, after rain forced postponement from the original date in mid-August. The September evening was cooler, less humid, and far dryer than the August date.
In its first five years, including concessions, the annual truck and tractor pull has raised more than $125,000 for school children. The Graves County Truck Pullers Association donates proceeds to the Christmas assistance programs of Mayfield and Graves County public schools.
Each of the family resource and youth service centers that serve the ten Graves County schools and three Mayfield Independent schools receive funds to help disadvantaged students and their families celebrate the holiday.
Concession stand proceeds this year benefit projects of the family resource and youth services centers as well as Farmington and Symsonia elementary schools.
The sixth annual event, like previous ones, was a Ken-Ten sanctioned event. The truck pullers' leaders are Larry Wooley, Ricky Wilson, Kenneth Wiggins, and Kenny Wiggins. Kenny Wiggins' 70th birthday was honored with the singing of "Happy Birthday to You" from the crowd, just before Wiggins' granddaughters sang the National Anthem.
The Truck Pullers have made a tradition of keeping the amount of money raised secret until they present checks at the meetings of the two school boards later in the fall.
Pictured here are a competitor in the truck pull early in the evening and part of the crowd later that night.

Born on October 27, 1728, in Marton-in-Cleveland, Yorkshire, England, James Cook was a naval captain, navigator and explorer who, in 1770, discovered and charted New Zealand and the Great Barrier Reef of Australia on his ship Endeavor. He later disproved the existence of Terra Australis, a fabled southern continent. Cook's voyages helped guide generations of explorers, and provided the first accurate map of the Pacific. He died on February 14, 1779, in Kealakekua Bay, Hawaii.
Early Life and Career
James Cook was born in Marton-in-Cleveland, Yorkshire, England, on October 27, 1728, the son of a Scottish farmhand. As a teenager, Cook did farming work alongside his father until, at the age of 18, he was offered an apprenticeship by a Quaker shipowner in a small seaside village near Whitby, England. The experience proved to be fortuitous for the future naval officer and explorer, bringing him in contact with both the ocean and ships along the port.
Naval Officer, Navigator and Explorer
Cook eventually joined the British Navy and, at age 29, was promoted to ship's master. During the Seven Years War (1756-63), he commanded a captured ship for the Royal Navy. In 1768, he took command of the first scientific expedition to the Pacific. In 1770, on his ship the HMS Endeavor, Cook discovered and charted New Zealand and the Great Barrier Reef of Australia—since credited as one of the world's most dangerous areas to navigate.
After his return to England, Cook was chosen to circumnavigate and explore Antarctica. On this voyage, he charted present-day Tonga, Easter Island, New Caledonia, the South Sandwich Islands and South Georgia, and disproved the existence of Terra Australis, a fabled southern continent. (Cook named the Hawaiian Islands the Sandwich Islands after the Earl of Sandwich, also known as John Montagu.)
Later Years and Legacy
In his later years, James Cook fought scurvy (a deadly disease caused by vitamin deficiency) by feeding his crew a diet that included watercress, sauerkraut and orange extract. He died in a skirmish with islanders during a winter layover in Kealakekua Bay, Hawaii, on February 14, 1779.
Today, Cook's voyages are credited with helping to guide generations of explorers, as well as with providing the first accurate map of the Pacific, and many believe that he did more to fill the map of the world than any other explorer in history.

Famous Explorers
Throughout the centuries, brave explorers have fearlessly traveled the globe and beyond to discover new lands, people, animal species, riches and glory. Ferdinand Magellan of Portugal proved the world is round with his mission to sail around the world. His fellow countryman Vasco da Gama commanded the first European ship around the southern tip of Africa to reach India by sea. Norseman Leif Eriksson is regarded as the first European to reach North America, nearly 500 years before Christopher Columbus, who is credited with discovering the "New World" of the Americas. Juan Ponce de León scoured Puerto Rico and Florida in his quest for the fountain of youth. Meriwether Lewis and William Clark blazed new trails during their Corps of Discovery Expedition across the western half of the United States. Traveling to new heights of discovery were mountain climber Sir Edmund Hillary, the first man to reach the peak of Mount Everest, and U.S. astronaut Neil Armstrong, the first human to walk on the moon. These intrepid explorers and more have made an indelible mark on human history. See all Explorers.

I'd recommend these pillows... now that I'v purchased 2 more sets totaling 3 (6 pillows in all). The photo show a wrinkly pillow protector but "Candice Olson" hmm I thought she would probably have good products; so I discarded the photo and decided to take a chance...Very glad I did. They are full and yet soft, the fabric is nice quality and so is the stitching. The pillow protector is a great bonus...much nicer than what the local store has. The price is Awesome!!!
I was looking for pillows that are not down due to allergies. When I got these pillows I was completely shocked at how much these are like down, but without the allergy problems! They are firm, but still with the same down comfort.
I love a firm pillow so these are lovely but too soft for me.
These pillows are pretty good. I've had a hard time finding pillows that are full enough and firm enough for a side sleeper. I wish these were a bit more full and firm, but their pretty good. I have to admit I've been sleeping well on them. But as a side sleeper, I wish my head would not sink down quite as much in them. It would be better if my neck could be straight instead of tilting down a bit into the pillow, that's what I was hoping for. I haven't found the perfect pillow yet, and it's hard to do in a king size pillow. But these are as good as I've found yet.
I bought this set for myself. I was impressed also by the value. The pillows are the right amount of soft and allowed me to sleep soundly at night. They had the right amount of "give" especially around my neck area! They are very comfortable and are quality made. If your neck hurts from lack of support, these pillows should help a lot!
Overstuffed and comfy pillows, great quality. Quick delivery, pleased with this purchase. Would highly recommend. Love the fact that they have covers too!
As soon as I opened the package, I knew these were a great choice. They are thick and so amazingly comfortable. The cover that comes off to wash is well made, unlike the shoddy ones that I have purchased in the past. A great choice and hope they will remain in stock so I can change out every pillow in the house!
I would highly recommend these pillows to anyone....excellent quality for the money!
Very nice and overstuffed. Fabric is much nicer than average.Very good buy.
Purchased these without hesitation. So glad I did. These pillows are very comfortable and just what we needed.

The individual mandate is unconstitutional because it exceeds even the outermost bounds of Congress's Article I authority and is inconsistent with the constitutional system of dual sovereignty that divides power between the federal and State governments. ... Congress cannot 'regulate' inactivity by requiring individuals to buy a good or service as a condition of their lawful residence in the United States, and Congress does not have carte blanche to include unconstitutional provisions within a larger scheme of commercial regulation.
Last February, a judge for the US District Court for the District of Columbia [official website] dismissed the ACLJ's lawsuit, ruling that Congress acted within its constitutional powers in passing the health care reform law. The court also found that the RFRA was not violated since the PPACA allows individuals to make a payment in lieu of coverage and the individual mandate is essential to the PPACA. The court concluded that the individual mandate was not a substantial burden on the plaintiffs' Christian faith and it is the "least restrictive means of serving a compelling government interest." Also last February, the US Department of Justice (DOJ) asked federal judge Roger Vinson to clarify that states must continue to enact the PPACA as the government appeals from Vinson's January ruling finding the law unconstitutional [JURIST reports]. There is also an ongoing challenge in Virginia over a split decision in the US district courts with the Eastern District of Virginia ruling against individual mandate provision and the Western District of Virginia dismissing a challenge [JURIST reports]. In October, a federal judge in Michigan ruled [JURIST report] that the law is constitutional under the Commerce Clause.

Build a Collection with Guaranteed Usage
EBSCO's Patron Driven Acquisition (PDA) program is a great collection development and acquisition model that helps libraries to preserve their budget while maintaining control over the collection development process.
Create PDA title lists for your library using specific criteria, and then expose the bibliographic records to end users without purchasing the titles. A title on the PDA list is triggered for purchase when a patron directly accesses the title, guaranteeing that only those titles with usage are purchased.
(Note: Similar to the PDA program, GOBI customers can include EBSCO eBooks as part of their Demand-Driven Acquisitions [DDA] program.)
Three easy steps to set up Patron Driven Acquisition lists for EBSCO eBooks:
- Build a collection — Select titles appropriate for the interests of your patron base—whether you're looking for content from a specific publisher or frontlist titles in a particular subject area.
- Expose the titles to your patrons — Load the bibliographic records to your catalog. This allows users to discover titles by browsing or searching the library collection.
- Buy only what gets used — A purchase is triggered when a patron:
- Downloads an eBook or audiobook title
- Views an eBook for more than ten minutes
- Views more than ten pages of an eBook
- Prints, emails, or copies & pastes a portion of an eBook page
What Happens when I Have More Requests than Licenses for a Title?
EBSCO's Smart PDA option is a cost-effective way to offer multi-user access through user-triggered license upgrades, which eliminates the frustration experienced by users who are confronted with hold queues.
With Smart PDA, libraries choose how and when to apply upgrade options (by title)—such as upgraded access to the three user or unlimited user purchase model—providing the librarian(s) with full control over costs and book availability. Users are never met with the need to "wait" for a title, and libraries never pay for more access than is needed.

Cut your hole in the wall for a single gang old work box and use a flexible drill bit to drill down through the sill plate into the first floor stud bay. Measure off this hole and drill up from the basement into the same stud bay and fish your wire. Install your old work box, wire up the receptacle and you're done, with no holes to repair.
Thanks for the explanation. I understand the process you describe. You make it sound easy, which it may be for a pro, but I think I'd let someone who has experience do it. It's like a conversation I had with a client of mine, a veterinarian for whom I do computer work. He asked if some work that I was doing was something that he could do himself. I hesitated, knowing that he was a smart guy, but also knowing that he could get into a lot of trouble if he didn't really know what he was doing. He picked up on it immediately, and said that he understood. With a smile, his comment to me was that he could teach me to spay a dog, too, but that it probably wouldn't be a good idea for me to try it.

Can nano do syntax highlighting like gedit and vim? How can I enable it? I need at least bash and python syntax highlights.
The nano editor provides syntax highlighting for a few languages and scripts by itself. Check out
Link them to your user's nano configuration file present at
Now, syntax highlighting is enabled in nano for whatever file you linked (You could also link multiple files) Note: Sometimes you might get a There are also other solutions if you are not satisfied with your bash highlighting. One example of such can be found here |
Yes you can, however the default syntax definitions are quite poor and incomplete. I'm maintaining a more accurate set of definitions here, for anyone who finds them useful. |
Yes, it does seem possible. Here's a guide that explains how to enable syntax highlighting: http://tuxarena.blogspot.com/2009/04/how-to-enable-syntax-highlighting-in.html. It took me a few seconds to google "syntax highlighting nano" and that popped right up. I'd recommend trying to search for your question before asking it, as you will probably get a quicker response time. On a side note, I highly recommend taking the plunge and learning Vim (or emacs, if that suits you better.) It will only take 20 or 30 minutes to learn the basic functionality you get out of nano, and you can learn about additional features and plugins at whatever pace you want to. |

Abak Software
"Advantage Database Server adds to the 'wow' factor of our solution. Clients are amazed at how it installs so easily and quickly and runs maintenance free."
Eric Lacourciere
Sales Director, AGI Groupe
Abak Software
Abak Software, part of the AGI Groupe of Sainte-Foy, Quebec, provides time and billing solutions for a variety of professional service providers. The program integrates with major accounting and other back-office and reporting solutions to automate data entry streamline information flow and enable fast and accurate billing cycles. Business Advantage Key Benefits Sybase Technology Industry
Hassle-free Migration
Having successfully penetrated the market among small professional service firms with its time and billing solution, Abak Software wanted to grow its business by tapping clients with more employees and more complex billing systems. To that end, the company needed to move from a local database server model to an embedded client/server environment that could manage larger amounts of information and increased user loads without data corruption or loss, system downtime, installation hassles, or other maintenance and support issues. The embedded server also had to integrate easily within a Delphi environment for hassle-free file migration to the upgraded system and client/server database.
Easy Evaluation
Abak Software elected to embed Advantage Database Server into its program to provide its existing and potential customers with a reliable, scalable and flexible client/server environment. The relatively small deployment size, simple installation and Delphi-compliant design of the Advantage Database Server allows Abak to upgrade existing clients remotely, while enabling new customers to easily and securely evaluate its solution before making a purchasing decision.
Enabling Growth
Advantage eliminates data corruption; reducing support calls by 15% on a daily basis. This translates to an annual savings of $45,000 in technical support costs at the company. Abak has also been able to widen its client base by 60 percent to include larger professional service firms without adding support staff to manage database-related calls. In addition, Abak attributes more than a third of its sales to Advantage Database Server since switching to an embedded client/server model.

Oscar Watch: Melissa Leo Embraces Her Scheming Materfamilias from 'The Fighter'
The last time Melissa Leo was nominated for an Academy Award, in 2009 for the blue-collar drama Frozen River, she was perhaps a sentimental favorite among critics but a decided longshot to beat out Meryl Streep, Anne Hathaway and eventual winner Kate Winslet.
Anything could happen between now and February's Oscar telecast, but Leo, 50, is already earning accolades for her supporting role in The Fighter, David O. Russell's biography of hard-knocks Lowell, Mass., brawler Micky Ward. (The San Francisco Film Critics Circle ranked her nuanced portrayal of a domineering mother as among the year's best.)
