Boston, MA - Leaders of the International Monetary Fund (IMF) will convene in Washington this month for their annual spring meetings. The last meetings were sidetracked because of the eurozone's woes. Since those waters have (temporarily) calmed, the IMF needs to address the "tsunami" of speculative finance that is wreaking havoc in emerging market and developing countries.
The IMF's own work has shown that cross-border financial flows have been flooding stock and bond markets in developing countries and raising the value of many currencies as well. Indeed, in the current climate, speculating on the poor seems like a no-brainer for many global investors.
Low interest rates and slow growth in the rich countries and higher interest rates and faster growth in the developing world create ample incentive for investors to pull money from rich countries and send their investments to emerging and developing country markets.
Frost Over the World - The desperation to join the EU
In the immediate wake of the global financial crisis until late in September 2011, cross-border capital flows had reached their pre-crisis crests in many places, especially Latin America and East Asia. Then, when the eurozone started to spiral into a whirlpool toward the end of 2011, the sea winds changed course and capital flew out of developing countries back to the "safety" of the United States market.
'Liquidity tsunami'
Brazilian President Dilma Rousseff has referred to these unstable capital flows as a "liquidity tsunami". The initial waves in part triggered an over 40 per cent appreciation of the Brazilian real and started asset bubbles in the country.
Exporters and their workers alike began losing competitiveness and jobs and demanded change. Late in 2011, there was capital flight when the storms gathered over Europe, but the tsunami is gathering pace and bubbling in Brazil once again.
Brazil has reacted aggressively by putting in place regulations on speculative capital entering the country. On numerous occasions, it has levied taxes on stock and bond trading, and derivatives as well. Brazil has not been alone in taking such action. Argentina, Costa Rica, Indonesia, South Korea, Peru, Taiwan and many others have as well.
The communique of the recent BRIC summit stated:
Excessive liquidity from the aggressive policy actions taken by central banks to stabilise their domestic economies have been spilling over into emerging market economies, fostering excessive volatility in capital flows and commodity prices.
Work by a new global task force that I co-chair with Jose Antonio Ocampo and Stephany Griffith Jones from Columbia University confirms that these concerns and reactions are justified and necessary. However, the task force is concerned that developing countries are struggling to effectively weather the storms because of lack of co-operation by the industrialised countries and a lack of full leeway for regulation and co-operation due to misplaced dikes in the form of trade and investment treaties.
Nations such as Brazil and South Korea are justified in their determination to regulate cross-border flows of finance into and out of their economies. Global financial markets are what economists call "pro-cyclical".
There is too much capital when the economy is doing well and too little during a downturn. Regulating capital flows during waves of hot money inflows helps lower the crests, regulation during outflows limits the troughs.
Thus, regulations serve as "counter-cyclical" measures to smooth these cycles. New research also shows that such measures can correct for inherent market failures in the world economy and thus increase world welfare.
The IMF Articles of Agreement grant nations the leeway to regulate cross-border capital flows and also enable North-South co-operation on such regulations. Economists Maurice Obstfeld and Alan Taylor point out that both John Maynard Keynes and Harry Dexter White - the chief crafters of the Articles - agreed that the burden of regulating speculative capital should be at "both ends": not only on the recipients of capital inflows, but also on the source countries of that capital.
From 1944 when the Articles were adopted to 1970, there was some degree of this type of collaboration. Indeed, France convinced the United States to maintain its capital control on outflows in the 1970s so France wouldn't suffer the currency appreciation of heavy inflows of capital from the US. During the same period, France convinced Germany to tighten capital controls on outflows in order for France not to suffer the consequences of excessive inflows of speculative capital.
Regulating capital flows
Despite numerous reports documenting the severe volatility of capital flows in the world economy by the IMF and other bodies, and communiques by the BRICS and individual countries, the industrialised world has failed to co-operate. This lack of co-operation is ironic given that low interest rates in the developed world are in place to try and spur growth and employment within industrialised nations.
BRICS nations to establish new bank
It is thus not in the interest of rich countries for the finance to spill over into the developing world. Thus the countries that need the investment to revive growth and employment do not receive it, the countries where too much investment can flood their economies receive too much.
Some nations that probably should be deploying regulations on capital flows are not because such measures could be found to violate recent trade and investment treaties. On the receiving end of all the capital flows are nations that may have signed on to the financial services commitments under the General Agreement on Trade and Services (GATS) at the WTO that limits the ability of nations to regulate cross border trade in financial services.
And/or a nation may be party to a "free trade agreement" or bilateral investment treaty with the United States that requires that nations allow the transfer of all forms of capital - including stocks, bonds and derivatives - into and out of all parties to the agreement "freely and without delay".
As a matter of policy, Brazil does not have trade or investment treaties with the US and has made only limited commitments under the GATS, whereas neighbours like Chile and Colombia that have also been stormed by speculative capital do have treaties and have less measures to mitigate capital flows.
Many of the nations that are source of speculative capital flows could be co-operating with emerging market nations to steer investment into their slow growing and job needing economies.
Unfortunately, most industrialised countries are not permitted to regulate capital flows under the codes and treaties of membership to the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) and the European Union.
If industrialised nations can get on the same wavelength at the IMF meetings, there may be an alignment of interests to coordinate on capital flows. Industrialised nations are aiming to recover from the crisis and hope that credit and capital stays in their nations.
Meanwhile, the developing world has been urging rich countries to close the flood gates of speculative capital flows. There is therefore some alignment of interests that could form the means for industrialised nations to adjust their tax codes and deploy other types of regulation to keep capital in their countries, as developing countries strengthen their regulations to tame the liquidity tsunami.
As IMF leaders gather in Washington in mid-April, they should reiterate that individual nations have the right to deploy regulations to mitigate the harmful effects of speculative capital flows. Moreover, the industrialised nations should be encouraged to share some of the responsibility of such regulation because it is in the interest of developed nations to keep channel investment at home, not overseas. Moreover, the IMF should address the extent to which numerous trade and investment treaties violate the IMF Articles of Agreement.

Tree, Bulbs, Pot
At almost 10,000 years old, Old Tjikko, a Norway Spruce in Sweden, is the oldest known living tree; although the Potted Frosted Hard Needle Franklin Spruce may not last quite that long, it goes to show just how timeless this kind of tree is. This potted Christmas tree by Sterling achieves its classic wintry look with spruce-like boughs that are subtly tipped with frost for natural effect. Available in two sizes, this tree comes planted in a simple yet attractive pot, and its medium-bodied fullness makes it versatile as either your primary Christmas tree or as complimentary holiday decor. And because it comes pre-strung with traditional, soft clear lights, it goes up and comes down easily.

Base Width: 24 inches
Number of Bulbs: 100

Don't Forget to Fluff!
Simply start at the top and work in a spiral motion down the tree. For best results, you'll want to start from the inside and work out, making sure to touch every branch, positioning them up and down in a variety of ways, checking for any open spaces as you go.
As you work your way down, the spiral motion will ensure that you won't have any gaps. And by touching every branch you'll create the desired full, natural look.

I have a ton of old programs and media guides and stuff and thought some people might like to see at least a few of them. I have to see how small I can make them and still make them readable. This first one is 1500 by 1250 but I would like to make them smaller if possible. I also have to check with ISU to make sure this is even permissable and they don't have a problem with it. This first one is just one part of the program that folds out. It folded out into a 17 x 22 inch poster that was a player photo on one side (almost all black and white but a couple were in color I think) and all the stats and stuff on the other side. But it all folded up into a 8.5 x11 sheet. Programs and Media guides - Iowa State Cyclones

Arnold Schwarzenegger could possibly be making a comeback! The "Conan the Barbarian" reboot last year didn't do well, so the franchise has decided to go back to its roots and bring back the original Conan. . . Arnold!
The new movie will be called "The Legend of Conan", and it's tentatively booked for summer of 2014.
And Arnold says, "I always loved the Conan character and I'm honored to be asked to step into the role once again."

Making homes in the Adirondacks affordable
Aug 20, 2008 — A newly renovated home in North Creek was donated to the Adirondack Community Housing Trust this week. The housing trust program was formed over the past year with the help of a $1 million state budget allocation from Senator Betty Little. It's one of about 200 such housing trusts around the country, including the Champlain Housing Trust in Vermont. The trust offers funding for homebuyers in exchange for an agreement to cap the resale price of the house. ACHT Executive Director Alan Hipps told Todd Moe that there's a growing demand for affordable housing because most people's income is not increasing at the same rate as home prices.

Where is podcast functionality in GarageBand 10.0.0?
Dan, your points are 100% valid (and I agree with your implicit point that poeple on these forums frequently overreact and take things personally), but that is not the best or most convenient solution. Podcast producers could, I'm sure, benefit from some of the upgrades in the new version of GB, and it just doesn't make sense that Apple would remove the elements that provide the capacity to produce podcasts--they can't account for more than 3 or 4% of GB's overall feature set. It's just puzzling, esp. when they have been so assidous in their upgrades to other podcast-related tools, like Apple TV and the iOS app.

I am sure Apple didn't _remove_ podcasting. GarageBand X seems to be a 100% clone of the recently released Logic Pro X which means: it is indeed a completely new application. Older versions were based on Logic, but had a totally different UI. This is no longer the case. They did however integrate Learn to Play, but Podcasting didn't make it.

You are right. GarageBand X is Logic Pro X, just less of it. However, the reason that they chose to keep Learn to Play (which is not in LPX) shows that they can keep features in GarageBand if they want to. So I guess if they wanted to, they could have kept the Podcast ability, or Magic GarageBand?
Apple seems to have a love-hate relationship with Posdcasts in general and don't seem to know what their position is at the moment. WIth the termination of the podcast feature, it seems that the meter moved a little bit towards the "hate" on the scale.
If you are a podcaster who uses the Podcast feature in GarageBand and post that on your website that you create with iWeb where you also sell your DVDs that you create with iDVD and keep track of your sales in the database Bento (owned by FIleMaker, a subsidary of Apple), then I think you're facing tough times.
BTW, I found the Master Echo/Reverb. You have to activate it in the Preferences first to show up in the Smart Controls window. Still haven't found the actual Master controls for that. Must keep on digging ...
Hope that helps

it's a pitty. the only reason I use GB is for Podcast. I've made hundreds of episodes (literaly), and like a lot the "chapter" utility and podcast track configuration. I will use the old version to make them, but its a big flaw that apple discontinue podcast features in this new version.
I don't care about making music, I want to show them in my radio show. for me, this is equally important when we talk abou music.
btw, the Podcast iPhone app still have a bug in the "chapter list".

Actually it's completely gone. I tried opening my Podcast show from last week, it stated that it is not supporting it.
Called Apple Hotline they confirmed it... so that's still a betrayal to me.
Also, the old version of GB is super slow and doesn't work well with Podcasting anymore, it's oversized when the projects are finished and it lags in every small adjustment while you work on the show. It was in dire need of an upgrade, so yeah I am stuck with the Old one but I find it terrible that it is now a dead software and will never see an update in Garageband as they just took it out.
I'm just saying, I find it disgusting that they have given birth to a community who loves and even lives off of podcasting and now, suddenly the community they built, is not being supported by Apple. What was so painful to Apple that they had to kill it off? Who was in charge of this decision! I would love to know who was responsible for this.

Apple dropped the ball on this one, BIG TIME!! Why they would remove the podcast feature is beyond me, seeing that so many people produce podcasts. Hopefuly they will listen and add the podcast feature back to the new version of GB. I dont really care about the new insturments, etc, a la Logic X. I use Ableton for that.At least the original version of GB is still in place, so no worries, I can still get my podcast on.
Apple needs to fix this ASAP

For the time being, use GArageBand '11 for your podcasts, until GarageBand 10.0 has been updated to support more features. The GB 10.0 installer left GarageBand '11 installed; both versions can be used independently.

Classic pattern of company's getting out of touch with the market or their audience. On the other hand maybe Podcasting was avery small part of the market using GB. Dont know but there is a market there and the company who understands this will be successful. Maybe Apple will surprise us and come out with a podcasting tool....and Im not holding my breath.

Buccaneers' cornerback Aqib Talib spoke to the media Monday afternoon regarding his return to game action for the first time since the 2010 and being on injured reserve. Talib's first matchup back won't be easy, as he will find himself covering one of the NFL's top receivers in Detroit's Calvin Johnson
Aqib Talib had a rough offseason to say the least. From his incident in Texas earlier this year, to the uncertainty of whether he would be suspended, and then suffering minor injuries during training camp, no one on the Buccaneers roster is probably any more happy to get back to just concentrating on football.
"Since my injury last year I couldn't wait to get back on the field," Talib said. "I didn't get a chance to play against Detroit last year. They are a pretty good team though. Definitely a pretty good receiver [in Calvin Johnson and] I cannot wait to go up against him."
While judging a team's preseason record isn't usually an accurate gauge of a team's talent, the Detroit Lions 4-0 record has caught the attention of Tampa Bay's star defensive back.
"[Stafford] is looking good," Talib said. "They're doing numbers in this preseason, and they're clicking on all cylinders and their offense and defense look real good right now. They came on at the end of last year and kind of carried to the preseason so we are expecting a pretty good team to come in September 11th.
"Turn on ESPN, NFL Network [and] a lot of people got a lot of good things to say about Detroit. We see it on tape. We are not knocking them or nothing we know they are a pretty good team. We have to bring our A game if we want to do something."
The Detroit Lions recent draft history hasn't been pretty in recent years with the likes of Charles Rogers, Mike Williams, Stocker McDougle, Joey Harrington and several other first-round busts. But since Matt Millen's reign mercifully ended for Detroit fans in 2008, things have looked up. Millen did hit on wide receiver Calvin Johnson in 2007 but the Lions finished the season 0-16.

Amanda Barnes-Turner was sworn in Nov. 12, as the newest member of Plumas County Sheriff's Office Reserve Unit at the new Plumas-Sierra Courthouse in Portola. It is the first swearing-in at the new building since it opened a year ago.
In a short ceremony with Sheriff Greg Hagwood presiding, Election Coordinator and Deputy Clerk-Recorder Marcy DeMartile swore the new reserve officer in.
Hagwood congratulated Barnes-Turner, as well as her husband, Mark Turner. Hagwood commented on how patient and determined Barnes-Turner was during the hiring process, which, he said, were excellent qualities to have in a peace officer.
He said she would undergo field and critical training as a next step, but expected that it would move faster due to her previous experience.
Barnes-Turner is a graduate of Quincy High School and attended Feather River College for two years.
"Growing up watching movies like 'Kindergarten Cop' and 'Lethal Weapon' piqued my interest in law enforcement. As I got older and my dreams were crushed from finding out real life is nothing like the movies, I found other reasons why law enforcement was the career I wanted to pursue," said Barnes-Turner.
"Law enforcement protects me and my loved ones, ensuring our safety and putting the bad guys behind bars. Law enforcement also possibly helps push people with troubled pasts in the right direction."
She credits Work Force Alliance and her family with helping her to complete and graduate from the Butte College Law Enforcement POST Academy in December 2009.
Friends and family, baby daughter Nicole and husband Mark among them, surrounded her during the courthouse ceremony — all of whom applauded her and wished her well.
Said Barnes-Turner's co-workers, Susan McLain and Cyndi Ruth, "We are so proud of her. She worked hard for this position."

The Magazine of AIA Minnesota
November - December 2007
Vol. 33 No. 6
Editor's Note
Simple Math?
At times I'm tempted to think that good urban design boils down to a mathematical equation. When it comes to urban development and redevelopment, developers and city planners are like professors at the chalkboard, calculating the right mix and density of housing, offices, retail, entertainment, green space, transit, and infrastructure. Add inviting, walkable streetscapes and architectural design that complements and enlivens the surrounding urban fabric, and success seems virtually guaranteed, given the right market conditions. The Excelsior & Grand project in St. Louis Park, designed by Elness Swenson Graham Architects, is a sterling example of how well this mixed-use equation can work.
But on the question of what gives an urban place its vitality I'm also reminded of two neighboring, contrasting buildings in downtown Minneapolis—the rough-edged, no-frills First Avenue music club and the oft-criticized Block E. The First Avenue building—my favorite spot to be in the Twin Cities—opened in 1937 as the Northland Greyhound Bus Depot, was converted to its current use in 1970, and today shows only traces of its original Streamline Moderne design. Painted black inside and out, and perennially, resolutely unimproved, the club is no beauty, to be sure. But it's utterly authentic.
Packed in tightly on the main floor or standing at the railing of the horseshoe mezzanine, you get a sense of the storied history of the place. Joe Cocker performed on opening night in April 1970 (when the club was named the Depot), and since then the egalitarian venue has hosted a Who's Who of seminal bands, including local legends Prince, the Replacements, and Hüsker Dü. If you're a longtime denizen, you're also aware of your own First Avenue history each time you walk in the door. I remember my first Tapes 'n Tapes show, Pavement's final appearance here, and a slew of other great late-night concerts. First time backstage (it's a glorified closet). Getting to know new friends by screaming into their ears over loud music and having them scream into mine.
The summer 2001 Wilco show takes the cake, though. After the band played a long, crowd-pleasing set and two encores, the film screen in front of the stage was slowly lowered, signaling the end of the night. But the cheering only got louder. When the screen paused three-quarters of the way down—a once-in-a-decade occurrence—the capacity crowd went delirious. The screen lifted, the rafters shook, and the band huddled in the middle of the stage, trying to figure out which unrehearsed song to play.
The unique energy and time-tested appeal of a scuffed-up urban gem like First Avenue become all the more clear when you cross the street to Block E. That relatively new, large-scale development has the look of a generic theme-park fortress (three sides appear mostly impenetrable at street level) dropped into an urban core. The complex is also exceedingly difficult to navigate, which partly explains why the upstairs suburban-mall-style food court and cineplex are sparsely populated at night (the hotel and two of the restaurants, all with street-level access on First Avenue, are big draws). The bookstore tenant wants out of its lease.
Is there a simple formula for creating vibrant urban places? No, of course not. Only time and history and music can make a place like First Avenue nightclub. And the Block E formula, if there was one, is in desperate need of a design recalculation. But there are good urban design principles, and Minnesota architects are using them to weave together old gems and new destinations, as you'll read about in this issue. If a richly textured urban fabric is what we're after, then it's time to hand the chalk to architects.

You are here:
If getting to your bank isn't possible or you would prefer to bank from the privacy and comfort of your own home, telephone or internet banking could be the answer.
Jim is 75 and lives in Glasgow. He has Retinitis Pigmentosa and now has no useful sight but despite this he is quite confident managing his money.
"I use telephone banking as a means of keeping track of my money and transferring money from my savings account to my current account."
Jim says that he uses telephone banking because it's easy to remember all the security information because he's been able to set or alter the password himself.
If you decide to bank via telephone or on the internet you will need a user name and password to keep your account secure. You will need to use these details every time you access your account. This information should be sent to you in your preferred format.
Some people find it hard to remember the username and password sent by the bank and instead they prefer to choose their own. Tell your bank if you want to do this and they will explain what information they need for you, for example you're often required to create a password using a combination of letters and numbers or by answering some security questions set by yourself.
To use telephone banking you don't necessarily have to use the telephone keypad to input a long list of account numbers so that you can get through to speak to someone at your bank. Instead, you can be asked security questions to check that you are who you say you are. Once you are through the security process all your banking needs should be met over the phone, including bill payments and checking your balance.
Increasingly banks are offering banking via mobile phone. If this is something that you're interested in talk to your bank about the safety of banking in this way.
If you use speech output on your phone you may want to ensure that you're alone or use headphones when receiving updates about your account for your privacy and safety.
Banks and building societies should have websites that are accessible to blind and partially sighted people. Your bank will ensure that you either have a fully accessible way of accessing your account details or they will give you equipment to enable you to provide the required information to access your account.
If you experience problems banking online, make sure that you contact your bank to tell them exactly what the problem. This will keep your account as secure as possible and your bank may be able to solve the problem quickly and easily.
If you're not confident using your computer or getting online, our Technology Support Squad can send a volunteer to help. Call our Helpline on 0303 123 9999 to find out more.

Money Follows the Person (MFP)
The Money Follows the Person (MFP) Rebalancing Demonstration Grant helps states rebalance their Medicaid long-term care systems. Over 31,000 people with chronic conditions and disabilities have transitioned from institutions back into the community through MFP programs as of December 2012, according to the semi-annual report released July 30, 2013. The Affordable Care Act of 2010 strengthened and expanded the MFP program allowing more states to apply. With Florida recently withdrawing from the program, there are currently forty-four states and the District of Columbia participating in the demonstration.
MFP Program Goals
- Increase the use of home and community-based services (HCBS) and reduce the use of institutionally-based services
- Eliminate barriers in State law, State Medicaid plans, and State budgets that restrict the use of Medicaid funds to let people get long-term care in the settings of their choice
- Strengthen the ability of Medicaid programs to provide HCBS to people who choose to transition out of institutions
- Put procedures in place to provide quality assurance and improvement of HCBS
States participating in MFP are: AL, AR, CA CO, CT, DE, GA, HI, IA, ID, IL, IN, KS, KY, LA, MA, MD, ME, MI, MN, MO, MS, MT, NC, ND, NE, NH, NJ, NV, NY, OH, OK, OR, PA, RI, SC, SD, TN, TX, VA, VT, WA, WI, WV and the District of Columbia.
The Affordable Care Act Extends & Expands MFP
The Affordable Care Act of 2010 strengthens and expands the "Money Follows the Person" Program to more States:
- Extends the MFP Program through September 30, 2016, and appropriates an additional $2.25 billion ($450 million for each FY 2012-2016). Any funds remaining at the end of each fiscal year carry over to the next fiscal year, and can be used to make grant awards to current and new grantees until FY 2016.
- Grant awards are available to States for the fiscal year they got the award, and 4 additional fiscal years after. Any unused grant funds awarded in 2016 can be used until 2020.
- Expands the definition of who's eligible for the MFP Program to include people that live in an institution for more than 90 consecutive days. (Exception: days that a person was living in the institution for the sole purpose of receiving short-term rehabilitation services reimbursed by Medicare don't count toward this 90-day period).
MFP Technical Help for States
National contractors with subject matter expertise are available to support CMS, MFP grantees and others with technical assistance on program implementation, promote best practices and provide guidance on MFP quality improvement strategies to enhance system performance and individual consumer outcomes.
More information on MFP Technical Assistance
The CMS Money Follows The Person Tribal Initiative
The CMS Money Follows the Person (MFP) Tribal Initiative (TI) offers existing MFP state grantees and tribal partners the resources to build sustainable community- based long term services and supports (CB-LTSS) specifically for Indian country. The TI may be used to advance the development of an infrastructure required to implement CB-LTSS for American Indians and Alaska Natives (AI/AN) using a single, or a variety of applicable Medicaid authorities. Funding is intended to support the planning and development of:
1) An in-state Medicaid program CB-LTSS (as an alternative to institutional care) tailored for AI/AN who are presently receiving services in an institution; and
2) A service delivery structure that includes a set of administrative functions delegated by the state Medicaid agency to Tribes or Tribal organizations (T/TOs), such as enabling tribe(s) to design an effective program or package of Medicaid community-based LTSS, and operating day to day functions pertaining to the LTSS program(s).
The TI may be used to cover costs necessary to plan and implement activities consistent with the objectives of this funding and within Federal grant regulations. The funds are subject to all the terms and conditions of the MFP Program. Please see the following link for more information.

NASA: Flow control valve delays shuttle
By the third week of March, NASA had delayed Discovery's STS-119 mission to the International Space Station five times.
Four of the delays came because of a problem with the shuttle's hydrogen-flow control valves. The shuttle has three of the metering devices.
The concern harkened back to damage to one of the valves during Endeavour's November 2008 STS (Shuttle Transport System)-126 mission.
NASA explained the problem this way: Gaseous Hydrogen (GH2) flow control valves are part of the main propulsion system on the space shuttle. There are three valves within the system, one dedicated to each of the shuttles main engines.
The valve's function is to regulate the flow of gaseous hydrogen from the main engines to the external fuel tank so the tank will maintain structural integrity and deliver liquid hydrogen to the engines at the correct pressure.
The GH2 flow control valve has two flow positions, high and low. During ascent, the valve moves between the two positions about 15 times. Also during ascent, the external fuel tank supplies the main engines with liquid oxygen and hydrogen propellants.
As the engines consume propellant, the liquid level within each tank drops and causes an empty space above the liquid. To fill the void within the liquid hydrogen (LH2) tank, the engines turn LH2 into gaseous hydrogen and return this gas to the external tank.
The role of the GH2 flow control valves is to regulate the amount of gaseous hydrogen that flows back to the tank.
For the shuttle engines to run correctly and for the hydrogen tank to maintain structural integrity, the LH2 tank pressure should be 33 psi. For single flow-control-valve failures, the other two valves can compensate by moving to either the high or low flow position as required. In some cases, the other valves cannot compensate and the tank pressure can reach 35 psi. In this event, a vent valve on the tank can open to relieve the pressure.
During space shuttle Endeavour's STS-126 mission in November 2008, flight controllers identified GH2 was flowing from one of the shuttle's engines at a higher than normal rate.
To compensate, the other two gaseous hydrogen-flow control valves reduced the amount of their flow, and there were no problems during launch. After landing, engineers inspected the main propulsion system, and engineers discovered the GH2 flow-control valve poppet on the suspect line was cracked and a small piece was missing.
The poppet on the valve acts like a pop-up on a sprinkler to let the GH2 flow.
They removed the damaged valve from Endeavour and shipped it to the vendor, Vacco (http://www.vacco.com) for disassembly. It then went to the Boeing Co. where engineers determined metal fatigue caused the crack.
The concerns were whether a failed poppet or poppets could cause:
1. A rupture in the gaseous hydrogen line, resulting in loss of pressure to the external tank's hydrogen tank. This could result in a main engine shutdown.
2. Over pressurization of the hydrogen tank, forcing open a vent line that could expel hydrogen into an oxygen-filled area.
After finding the failure, teams of engineers worked to understand what caused the fatigue. As part of the investigation, the flow control valves from all three shuttles and three flight spares underwent rigorous inspection.
The team also assessed the risk to the shuttle in the event another poppet breaks and a piece comes off. They conducted impact testing at multiple NASA centers including Glenn Research Center, Cleveland, Ohio; Stennis Space Center, Miss.; and White Sands Test Facility, Las Cruces, N.M.
Engineers at Marshall Space Flight Center, Huntsville, Ala., are constructing computer models to better understand the conditions that would result in a fatigue failure.
A hydrogen leak caused the last delay, and mechanics fixed that problem on the launch pad before the shuttle lifted off on 15 March.

BERLIN, GERMANY - FEBRUARY 21: Roswitha Roeding, who is blind, explores a piece of metal shaped in the floor plan of the museum with her fingers on the first organized architectural tour of the museum for blind people at the Jewish Museum Berlin on February 21, 2014 in Berlin, Germany. The tours, which will be offered four times a year but can also be booked on other occasions, are geared specifically to what a blind person would be most able to appreciate in the building known for its tilted planes and narrowing spaces and designed by American architect Daniel Libeskind.

Profile of Founder
Toby Ord
Toby is a postdoctoral research fellow in ethics at the University of Oxford. He was raised in Melbourne, Australia where he enrolled in a science degree at university. While intensely interested in science, he spent much of his free time talking and thinking about how the world could be better:
"As an undergraduate, I often argued with my friends about political and ethical matters. I regularly received the retort: 'if you believe that, why don't you just give most of your money to people starving in Africa?' This was meant to show that my position was absurd, but as time passed and I thought more about ethics, I found the conclusion increasingly sensible: if my money could help others much more than it helps me, then why not?"
After finishing his science degree he decided to do a second degree in arts, so that he could study ethics.
"Ethics is the study of what is of fundamental importance in the world, and how this relates to how we should live. At this stage I knew that I wanted to make a large positive difference in the world and it seemed that studying ethics would help."
He continued his studies at Oxford, and while there he found out just how much he could contribute through simply donating his money:
"I discovered that by donating most of my future income to the most efficient charities, I could save around 50,000 years of healthy life. Since I already had most of the things I value in life on my student stipend, I realised that my money would do vastly more good for others than it could for me and decided to make a commitment to donating to the most effective charities I could find. Many people contacted me asking how they could do this as well, and so I set up Giving What We Can."
Toby is currently donating his money to a group called SCI who work on the prevention and cure of neglected tropical diseases: commonly regarded as the 'best buy in public health'. He is very glad that he decided to think seriously about giving:
"I thought that I would make a relatively small sacrifice to help so many people, but it has turned out to be no real sacrifice at all: the sense of engagement in the project of making the world a better place is worth far more to me than some new gadgets or a slightly larger house."

Rated 5 out of 5 by JustHuntIt All in one
I have been shooting these arrows for about 3 years now and all I can say is wow. I have 6 Mayhem arrows and 6 maxima arrows both are 350. They both shoot the same, spot on every time. But what makes the Mayhem arrows even better is their use in hunting. They have more GPI which makes them have better penetration. They are also cheaper. I have shoot deer with both and they Mayhems are my #1. As for now I will not shoot anything else. I will always shoot carbon expres I love the nock collars!

DropBox, Buzsaw, Microsoft SharePoint, Autodesk Vault...
(maybe Autodesk Vault doesn't fit in this list?)
In concidering Riverbed technology for Project CAD file sharing between remote offices, does DropBox, Buzsaw, SharePoint fit in the picture?
Are there others besides DropBox, Buzsaw or MS SharePoint?
Which is the better solution?
The BIG BIG drawback to Box and Dropbox (and we use these in our office extensively) and others like those is there's no protection for "file in use" that I've found. If you start editing a file, someone else has no idea.
And don't try putting your vault on the dropbox, that's asking for trouble I think. Not to mention size can quickly become an issue.
"... If you start editing a file, someone else has no idea."
I don't know much at all about Drop Box... Is the idea that you open AutoCAD drawing file 'directly' from Drop Box?
AutoCAD places a 'dwl' file in the same location as the drawing file being edited. Are you saying that multiple people can edit the same file without the typical indication from AutoCAD that you can open as read-only?
And... is there not record kept of who edited or when the edit was made?
dropbox isn't a data management tool its a file sharing tool
so no it doesn't do that
for inter-organization collaboration, the hands-down best product i've used has been eRoom, now owned by documentum
internally, Synergis Adept looks like the winner for eng/cadd document management

My 3-year-old niece looks very cute in this pink dress. The color is joyful and she loves the frills. It is loose but she has room to move and can grow in it. The fabric is soft and of good quality. It is versatile dress that she will wear through the year. It will also be very pretty in the fall with tights as well as in the spring. A good purchase!

I love this dress, and my three year old loves it too. She insisted on wearing it the minute she saw it come out of the box. The pink is pretty, the fit is cute, the material is soft, and I thought it was true to size. My three year old is small, and wears size 2 or 3 depending on the brand. The 2-3 fit her well with some room to grow.

Was the Senate Right to Block Gillibrand's Military Sexual Assault Bill?
By Rachel Brody |
The decision to open ground-combat positions to women is seriously misguided, as evidenced by the fact that the policy decision precedes the feasibility assessment. A senior Defense Department official announced that the goal is "to provide a level, gender-neutral playing field," when the goal should be to have the most effective war-fighting institution possible.
The physical differences between men and women are obvious, as few women have the strength, speed, or aerobic capacity of even the average man. The British military determined that only 1 in 100 trained female soldiers had the physical capacity to function in infantry and armor units. Then, of course, there's pregnancy, which leaves women three to four times as likely as men to be unable to deploy and leads many, once deployed, to be medevaced and thereby lost to their units.
[See a collection of political cartoons on defense spending.]
Beyond individual sex differences are the equally important effects of adding women to male combat groups. Combat units are intensely cooperative and placing a scarce resource (women) within them creates a disruptive competition. Moreover, trust is the foundation of cohesion, and men are disinclined to trust women in dangerous situations, worried that they will lack either the will or the wherewithal to back them up. The rough camaraderie that men engage in to build cohesion will lead to sexual harassment charges by women, so women will be excluded from these important activities.
Women are now promoted as fast or faster than men. Although there are relatively few female admirals and generals, there are also relatively few female CEOs in the private sector. Sex differences in intense career commitment are more important than the combat exclusion. Men join the infantry to fight, whereas we hear now that women want to join the infantry for their careers. This decision will impose new pressure on the many career military women who do not want to serve in combat, likely discouraging many women from entering the military. Although women have been involved in combat skirmishes, ground-combat service requires sustained combat, sometimes over the course of days or weeks, often under loads substantially exceeding that of the soldier of World War II.
This is a disastrous decision made by people (a re-elected president and an outgoing secretary of defense) who will not have to bear its consequences. Instead theywill be suffered by the soldier on the ground, and in some cases they are likely to be fatal.

Awhile back, we had taken the Oliver + S Bubble Dress pattern, and revamped it to make some bubble sacques for "Baby Girl." Being pleased with the results, we decided to make a bubble dress for her...this time, however, following the pattern directions from beginning to end. Well, with one minor addition: piping (surprise, surprise!)
Thinking back, there isn't much to say about this sewing venture except we loved it....and were in such a happy place that we forgot to put a label in it as we sewed along! We used Kaffe Fausset's ice blue shot cotton that was ooh-laa-laa to the touch.
Perks to the Oliver + S Bubble Dress:
1. It wasn't a time-consuming project AT ALL! In fact, the longest part of the process was tracing the scallop top-stitching line to follow (because we're not good enough to tackle it blindly).
2. The placket was absolutely heavenly! Plackets generally make us cringe, but these directions were detailed and thorough, guiding us through the entire process flawlessly. This was MAJOR! It was our first placket we've actually been pleased with its turnout. If only all plackets were made like this...
If you still need more guidance on sewing the placket or the bubble dress in general, there are some excellent tutorials about it here on the Oliver + S site.
We had to include some "Brady Bunch" poses of the niece while shooting on the 'burst setting' on our camera. The 'burst setting' is PERFECT for newborn pictures....and one we were made aware of when the "Big Sister" was younger!
Now...enough of these pictures....It's naptime for someone! Sleep tight, sweet baby!

3 Stocks Spiking on Big Volume
WINDERMERE, Fla. (Stockpickr) -- Professional traders running mutual funds and hedge funds don't just look at a stock's price moves; they also track big changes in volume activity. Often when above-average volume moves into an equity, it precedes a large spike in volatility.
Major moves in volume can signal unusual activity, such as insider buying or selling -- or buying or selling by "superinvestors."
>>5 Stocks Set to Soar on Bullish Earnings
Unusual volume can also be a major signal that hedge funds and momentum traders are piling into a stock ahead of a catalyst. These types of traders like to get in well before a large spike, so it's always a smart move to monitor unusual volume. That said, remember to combine trend and price action with unusual volume. Put them all together to help you decipher the next big trend for any stock.
With that in mind, let's take a look at several stocks rising on unusual volume today. >>5 Rocket Stocks to Buy for a 1Q Rally Overstock.com Overstock.com (OSTK) is an online retailer offering closeout and discount brand and non-brand name merchandise, including bed-and-bath goods, home dcor, kitchenware, watches, jewelry, electronics and computers, apparel and designer accessories. This stock is trading up 4.8% at $15.45 in recent trading. Today's Volume: 144,000 Average Volume: 146,411 Volume % Change: 129% This stock is trading higher in front of its earnings report which is scheduled for Jan. 24, 2013, before the market opens. From a technical perspective, OSTK is ripping right above its 50-day moving average of $14.55 with decent volume. This move has started to push shares of OSTK into breakout territory, since the stock has moved above some near-term overhead resistance levels at $15.06 to $15.56. Shares of OSTK are now moving within range of triggering another major breakout trade. That trade will hit if OSTK takes out some more overhead resistance at $16 with high volume. At last check, OSTK has hit an intraday high of $16.15 and volume is close to surpassing its three-month average action of 146,411 shares. That $16.15 level is a new 52-week high for OSTK. Traders should now look for long-biased trades in OSTK as long as it's trending above $15.32 to $15.56, and then once it sustains a move or close above $16 to $16.15 with volume that hits near or above 146,411 shares. If that breakout triggers now or after earnings, then OSTK will set up to enter new 52-week high territory, which is bullish technical price action. Some possible upside targets off that breakout are $17 to $17.69. Any high-volume move above $17.69 could send OSTK towards $20 after earnings.Select the service that is right for you!
