The 12th week of the college football season offers several key matchups:
No. 18 USC at No. 17 UCLA
When: Saturday
Where: Rose Bowl; Los Angeles, Calif.
Time: 3:05 p.m. ET
TV: Fox
Buzz: Rivalry games are some of the best matchups in college football and while USC has dominated this series in recent years – five straight wins going back to 2006 – that doesn't diminish the importance of this game. Besides bragging rights, the winner of this one wraps up the Pac-12 South and earns a spot in the league's championship game. Expect there to be points-a-plenty. Both of these teams average more than 400 yards of total offense and 36 points per game.
Ohio State at Wisconsin
When: Saturday
Where: Camp Randall Stadium; Madison, Wis.
Time: 3:30 p.m. ET
Buzz: These teams are co-champions of the Big Ten's Leaders Division, but only Wisconsin will get the chance to play for another conference championship thanks to Ohio State's postseason ban. The Buckeyes are one of just four unbeaten teams in the FBS. Wisconsin's Montee Ball needs one touchdown to tie the NCAA record for career touchdowns (78) set by Miami of Ohio RB Trent Prentice.
No. 12 Oklahoma at West Virginia
When: Saturday
Where: Mountaineer Field; Morgantown, W.V.
Time: 7 p.m. ET
TV: Fox
Buzz: Talk about two teams going in different directions. Oklahoma has won five straight Big 12 contests, while West Virginia has lost four straight after opening the season 5-0. Mountaineers quarterback Geno Smith has put up big numbers this season – 3,041 yards passing with 31 touchdowns and only three interceptions – but Oklahoma has the one of the best passing defenses in the country.
No. 13 Stanford at No. 2 Oregon
When: Saturday
Where: Autzen Stadium; Eugene, Ore.
Time: 8 p.m. ET
Buzz: Oregon's national championship hopes hinge on whether it can survive its most difficult stretch of the season. The Ducks host Stanford Saturday before traveling to Corvallis for a rivalry game against Oregon State next week. A win by Oregon means the Ducks will once again host the Pac-12 championship game, facing either UCLA or USC. A loss, meanwhile, effectively ends Oregon's national title hopes.
No. 1 Kansas State at Baylor
When: Saturday
Where: Floyd Casey Stadium; Waco, Texas
Time: 8 p.m. ET
Buzz: Kansas State looks to continue its perfect season against the Bears. A win by the Wildcats clinches at least a share of the Big 12 championship and the league's automatic BCS bowl spot. It also keeps Kansas State on track to earn a spot in the BCS championship game. The Wildcats' vaunted defense looks to slow down Baylor's high-powered offense led by quarterback Nick Florence.

Scripting Tutorial for Bash 4.0
The "Advanced Bash Scripting Guide" version 6 has been reworked to incorporate the new features of Bash 4.0.
The Advanced Bash Scripting Guide written by Mendel Cooper encompasses 361 code examples and would make a 960-page printed book. Cooper describes the guide not only as an "in-depth exploration of the art of shell scripting" but an introduction to general programming concepts such as recursion.
The new version 6.0.05 of the document demonstrates among other things the introduction of associative arrays that Bash 4.0 announced the end of February. As an example of their use Cooper provides a simple address database. He also goes into the expanded syntax for the case construct, enabling parallel processes through the coproc built-in, and use of the mapfile built-in to load an array with contents of a text file.
In an editorial comment at the end of the Bash version 4 chapter, Cooper nevertheless asks the question whether so many new features are really necessary: "Whatever happened to the lean and mean Bash we have come to know and love?" His suggestion for more "essential" features would include for-each loops and multi-dimensional arrays.
The document is included among the Linux Documentation Project Guides as text, HTML, PDF, PS and PDB. The author put it under Open Publication License with some additional conditions.

Allergan Inc. (AGN) climbed the most in almost a year after second-quarter earnings beat analyst estimates and the company raised the lower end of its full-year forecast.
Allergan rose 4.3 percent to close at $85.62 in New York, the biggest increase since Aug. 23, 2011. Earnings excluding some items of $1.07 a share beat by 1 cent the average of 22 analyst estimates compiled by Bloomberg.
Earnings for 2012 will be $4.15 to $4.19 a share, the company said, increasing the lower end of the outlook by 2 cents. Botox sales increased 10 percent to $461.2 million in the second quarter, while revenue from southern Europe wasn't hurt by the debt crisis, the company said.
"We have just some fabulous growth rates, even in the so- called old Europe," David Pyott, Allergan's CEO, said on a conference call with analysts.
Allergan has more than half the European breast implant market share, which is split among 11 companies, Pyott said in a telephone interview. Worldwide sales growth for Allergan's implants has been 14 percent in this year, he said.
The company's sales benefited after French and German officials in December recommended that women have surgery to remove faulty implants made by Poly Implant Prothese SA of France. Women sought Allergan's products as replacements, Pyott said.
"The market doesn't seem to have taken a hit, despite what one would think would be negative perceptions," Pyott said.

Recover the Encoded Message without Original Signal
All three encoding and decoding schemes require that the modified output signal be compared to the original signal to attempt to recover the encoded message. Obtaining the original signal can be cumbersome in practice and may present logistical problems. Fortunately, this requirement can be lifted with a slight design change.
Detect Whether a Signal has been Watermarked
This project could also be furthered by creating a decoding process which takes in a signal and a message and attempts to discover whether the signal has been marked with that message.
Survive Cropping Attacks
Our algorithms could survive cropping if we set up a matched filter in the decoder. First we would determine where the marked signal is located in the original signal using cross-correlation. Then we could crop the original signal in order to compare it to the marked signal and recreate the message (without, of course, the bits lost in the crop).
Increase Security by Pseudorandom Sequences
By first encoding the message with a pseudorandom sequence, we could increase the security of the message. If the encoder uses the pseudorandom sequence with the message as a seed to select which segments are encoded, the decoder can only find what the original message was if he also has the sequence. Thus, the encoder and the decoder must have some key sharing mechanism.
A second method of increasing the security using the pseudorandom sequences is varying the segment length. In the first step of each encoding process, the original signal is cut up into segments of equal time length. If, instead, the length of each segment is varied according to a pseudo-random sequence known by the transmitter and receiver. Without this sequence key, a potential eavesdropper would have great difficulty finding--let alone interpreting--the changes detected in the modified sound.
Encode on both Audio Channels
All three encoding processes currently only encode on one channel of a stereo audio signal. Both channels may be used to store additional information, at the cost of degrading the sound quality further. The effectiveness of this strategy is limited because the human brain is comparatively good at discerning differences in sound between the two ears.
Use Error Correcting Codes
This project focuses more heavily on the design of the encoding and decoding systems than the contents of the transmitted message. However, system performance in the presence of noise might improve if some form of error correcting code is used. If single-bit errors are evenly distributed throughout a decoded message, error correcting codes will improve accuracy. The trade-off is that fewer unique bits can be encoded, and message length must be reduced.
Extend Findings to Speech Signals
This project focused exclusively on hiding digital data within music files. Perhaps a more practical application is to apply these results to speech signals. Human speech typically covers a smaller frequency range than music and also typically lacks harmonic resonance. It is not clear how well the encoding and decoding schemes will perform when applied to speech.

NEW ORLEANS — A massive oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico is even worse than officials believed and the federal government is offering to help industry giant BP contain the slick that is threatening parts of the U.S. shoreline, the Coast Guard said.
A new leak discovered in a blown-out well a mile underwater means five times as much oil is spewing into the water — an estimate BP disputes. The time may have come for the defense department and other public agencies to offer up "technologies that may surpass abilities of the private sector" to get the mess under control, Coast Guard Rear Adm. Mary Landry said at a news conference late Wednesday.
She said more than 5,000 barrels a day of sweet crude are discharging into the gulf, not the 1,000 barrels officials had estimated for days since a drilling rig exploded and sank 50 miles off the Louisiana Coast. The new oil spill estimate comes from the federal National Oceanic Atmospheric Administration.
Doug Suttles, chief operating officer for BP PLC, which leased the rig, said he welcomed the government's offer, but that he did not believe the amount of oil spilling into the water is beyond earlier estimates.
"We're actually applying every resource available to us," he said.
He pointed to a diagram that showed the new leak is upstream from the one officials knew about.
"Due to its location, we do not believe this changes the amount currently believed to be released," he said.
When asked again, Landry stuck to the NOAA estimate and said it was based on aerial surveys, study of the trajectory of the oil slick and other factors.
The Secretary of Homeland Security has briefed President Barack Obama on this new information and the government has offered to have the Department of Defense use its equipment and expertise to help contain the spill and protect the U.S. coastline and wildlife, Landry said.
"It has become clear after several unsuccessful attempts to determine the cause" that agencies must supplement what's being done by the company, she said.
Meanwhile, a plan to contain the slick by burning off parts of it was successfully tested late Wednesday afternoon, Landry said. BP was to set more fires after the test, but as night fell, there were no more burns. The burns were not expected to be done at night. No details about when more were planned were given during the news conference.
Crews planned to use hand-held flares to set fire to sections of the spill. They turned to the idea after failing to stop the leak at the spot where a deepwater platform exploded on April 20 and later sank.
A 500-foot boom was to be used to corral several thousand gallons of the thickest oil on the surface, which will then be towed to a more remote area, set on fire, and allowed to burn for about an hour.
The decision to burn some of the oil came after crews operating submersible robots failed to activate a shut-off device that would halt the flow of oil on the sea bottom 5,000 feet below.
Officials had estimated about 42,000 gallons of oil a day was leaking into the Gulf from the blown-out well drilled by the Deepwater Horizon oil rig. That would be closer to 210,000 gallons a day with the new estimates. Eleven workers are missing and presumed dead and more than 100 escaped the blast, the cause of which has not been determined.
A spokeswoman for a U.S. military base in Colorado Springs, Colo., that provides support to civil authorities during natural disasters said BP has not requested the defense department's help to contain the leak. However, the North American Aerospace Defense Command and the U.S. Northern Command at Peterson Air Force Base, were anticipating the request, said Stacey Knott.
"We are looking at how we may be able to offer support if we are asked," said Knott.
As for the burn, Greg Pollock, head of the oil spill division of the Texas General Land Office, which is providing equipment for crews in the Gulf, said he is not aware of a similar technique ever being tried off the U.S. coast. The last time crews with his agency used fire booms to burn oil was a 1995 spill on the San Jacinto River.
"When you can get oil ignited, it is an absolutely effective way of getting rid of a huge percentage of the oil," he said. "I can't overstate how important it is to get the oil off the surface of the water."
When the flames go out, Pollock said, the material that is left resembles a hardened ball of tar that can be removed from the water with nets or skimmers.
"I would say there is little threat to the environment because it won't coat an animal, and because all the volatiles have been consumed if it gets on a shore it can be simply picked up," he said.
Authorities also said they expect minimal impact on sea turtles and marine mammals in the burn area.
A graphic posted by the Coast Guard and the industry task force fighting the slick showed it covering an area about 100 miles long and 45 miles across at its widest point.
"It's premature to say this is catastrophic. I will say this is very serious," Landry had said earlier.
From the air, the thickest parts of the spill resembled rust-colored tentacles of various thickness. The air was thick with the acrid smell of petroleum.
Amid several of the thicker streaks, four gray whales could be seen swimming in the oil. It was not clear if the whales were in danger.
BP says work will begin as early as Thursday to drill a relief well to relieve pressure at the blowout site, but that could take months.
Another option is a dome-like device to cover oil rising to the surface and pump it to container vessels, but that will take two weeks to put in place, BP said.
Winds and currents in the Gulf have helped crews in recent days as they try to contain the leak. The immediate threat to sandy beaches in coastal Alabama and Mississippi has eased. But the spill has moved steadily toward the mouth of the Mississippi River and the wetland areas east of the river, home to hundreds of species of wildlife and near some rich oyster grounds.
The cost of the disaster continues to rise and could easily top $1 billion.
More than two dozen vessels moved about in the heart of the slick pulling oil-sopping booms.
Earlier Wednesday, Louisiana State Wildlife and Fisheries Secretary Robert Barham told lawmakers federal government projections show a "high probability" oil could reach the Pass a Loutre wildlife area Friday night, Breton Sound on Saturday and the Chandeleur Islands on Sunday.
In Plaquemines Parish, a sliver of Louisiana that juts into the Gulf and is home to Pass a Loutre, officials hoped to deploy a fleet of volunteers in fishing boats to spread booms that could block oil from entering inlets.
"We've got oystermen and shrimpers who know this water better than anyone," Plaquemines Paris President Billy Nungesser said. "Hopefully the Coast Guard will embrace the idea."

Now showing: Three exhibitions at campus galleries
The University of Wisconsin-Parkside art galleries have opened their doors with three new exhibitions to start the 2012-2013 academic year. Enjoy the best artwork from throughout Wisconsin, witness the beauty to be found in other people's trash, and learn to steal like an artist.
The Wisconsin Visual Arts Juried Exhibition brings the state's best artwork to campus. Wisconsin Visual Arts is the state's oldest and largest artists' association. The exhibition shows in the Fine Arts Gallery of the Rita Tallent Picken Regional Center for Arts and Humanities through Oct. 13.
Down the hall, Minneapolis artist Michael Kareken's "Salvaged Views" offers a glimpse of the urban landscape typically hidden from the casual observer. Kareken's drawings and paintings, artwork created from thousands of photographs he took in busy outdoor recycling centers, offer unique images in muted earth tones. "Salvaged Views" is in the UW-Parkside Foundation Gallery through Nov 17.
"Steal Like an Artist," in the E.H. Mathis Gallery through Nov. 3, is newspaper blackout poetry inspired by Austin Kleon. Taking its name from Kleon's bestselling book, the exhibition features poems by Kenosha and Racine poets who used permanent markers to blackout words on the pages of local newspapers, creating "do-it-yourself" verse.
Opening receptions for each exhibition are Saturday, Sept. 8, from 2-5 p.m. with awards in the Wisconsin Visual Arts show announced at 3 p.m. Regular gallery hours are Monday noon to 4 p.m., Tuesday/Wednesday noon to 6 p.m., Thursday noon to 8 p.m., and Saturday noon to 4 p.m. The galleries are closed Fridays and Sundays. Admission is free.

COLLEGE STATION, Texas (AP) - No. 10 Texas A&M has reached 10 wins for the first time since 1998.
The accomplishment is even sweeter for the Aggies because of the skeptics who predicted they'd struggle in their first season in the Southeastern Conference.
Texas A&M wrapped up its regular season Saturday night with a 59-29 win over fellow SEC newcomer Missouri. This is its first season of double-digit wins since an 11-3 record in 1998.
The Aggies aren't surprised. They say they knew they'd have a good year after leaving the Big 12.
Linebacker Sean Porter says: "People acted like we were going to be some kind of doormat or something. But this entire time we had a lot of confidence."

Machine tool controllers, HMIs add efficiency
Inside Machines: Human-machine interface and controller advancements enhance machine tool productivity by combining highly advanced graphics and open architecture of the CNC to render animated graphics and intuitive operator and programming interface. See examples in photo gallery.
Some recent and major enhancements to the graphical user interface and human-machine interface (HMI) on machine tools are rapidly improving machine productivity and operator efficiency. Chief among them combines the HMI operator and programming interfaces to create a consistent user interface for use with machine tools: turn, mill, or mill/turn types. The user interface contains animated elements and is designed to facilitate intuitive operation and programming. Even the most complex workpieces can be set up with ease and produced in one clamping operation, because of new functions. [A photo gallery of examples follows.]
All CNC process measurement cycles also are available for automatic workpiece and tool measurement processes with the familiar look-and-feel of the advanced HMI. For these efficient cycles and other new functional features, the input masks are provided with animated elements using the high-level language programming guides built into the CNC and, with advanced mill and turn technology simulation software onboard, they also include a full cycle simulation capability. Measured values can be automatically updated and used for tool correction and also zero offset.
Coupled with this advancement in the HMI are the controller upgrades, centered chiefly around the reduction of operator G-code language familiarity, so the program can be altered "on the fly" through the use of simple prompts and plain language commands onscreen. Corresponding to this improvement, technical advancements in the controller architecture allow a more uniform appearance on the pushbutton or touchscreen configuration of the HMI, which has enabled significant cross-training for operators who must run a milling machine in the morning and a turning machine in the afternoon, for example.
The considerable user convenience of animated elements, which are designed to support machine tool operators with predictive movie-like animations of operating and programming steps, will quickly establish the popularity of this new wave in machine control. Likewise, the programming functionality also offers graphical support for features such as display of the rotary axis in position patterns, pocket calculator functions with fit indication, and the ability to hide selected positions in position patterns. Cylinder surface transformation and multiple workpiece clamping are also included in these latest packages, so programmers and operators alike can perform a variety of family part setups in far less time. All these features are being incorporated into a Microsoft Windows-style representation onscreen, for operator acceptance in use.
Tool management within this emerging HMI/controller interface paradigm has likewise been expanded even further to include not only new grinding tool types, but also new measurement probe types and new depiction modes for tools using graphics and detailed picture views. As a result, all turning, milling and grinding tools are displayed with the same familiar look-and-feel. New shortcuts have also been introduced, such as the Ctrl-F function, allowing simplified search operations in most operating areas, such as files, tools, or in the editor, for substantially improved usability. Tool type, size, and condition are always accessible to the operator and maintenance personnel, as well as remotely to quality and process evaluation monitoring devices, whether onscreen or remote through a network bus.
Program management has been made more efficient by allowing PDF files or picture documents in .jpg, .png, and .bmp formats to be saved in directories on local drives for paper-free production. Programmers with slight modifications can, for example, access the current data onscreen, and, when changes are made offline, the modern CNC can accept USB or other portable device information management.
After program setup, the backup of the program is typically achieved in a pop-up window, enabling faster starts plus preview windows and multiple clamping data to be displayed. Whether turning or milling, the display shows a programmer or operator the animated run cycle or portion thereof, with complete options for changes and subsequent animation sequences. Plain language commands and the corresponding code are displayed onscreen for the reduction of time needed to make changes in the program or actual cutting conditions. This feature is useful in the job shop or prototype machining lab, where more one-off and short run production is the norm.
For easier training and operations, the HMI provides help screens, fully animated and point-to-point (broken line) graphic displays, each accessible with one screen change.
When a value is entered that does not correspond to the program or will cause another anomaly in the machining cycle, an error screen is typically displayed with the off-normal condition highlighted or flashing to quickly alert the programmer or machine operator. Such diagnostic tools previously involved a partial or complete run-through of the entire part program to determine error.
In an optional manual mode, a programmer can select a tool change with direct access to a tool management screen that displays all the relevant tools for a particular part that are resident in the tool carousel. Spindle speed and direction, M-functions, zero offsets, and machining planes can likewise be selected. On the most highly advanced controllers, the machine coordinate system and the actual workpiece coordinate system are saved in the active zero offset file for on-demand use.
Hand-in-hand with these developments is the seamless appearance of the cutting conditions, regardless of the programming language used. As more machine tools built on one continent are used on others, this flexibility in the control is absolutely critical. Whether simple workstep programming, DIN/ISO or high-level language, multichannel programming or classic G-code compatibility is desired, the most advanced CNC will adapt the command sequences to the skill level of the user, achieving the proper result both in the control and onscreen for easy interpretation.
Likewise, when changes to any position, speed, or feed rates are needed, simple program blocks can be isolated and displayed, so the resulting changes are made more easily to all relevant steps in the process.
Drives access for the machine tool and network is allowed, to make the HMI one point of information on the status of machine hardware in programming or in process. Program storage with simple name indications, as well as subroutines and external program information such as PDF, PNG, or NI files is possible.
After parts have been run, recall of the planned program and the actual run conditions and any variable occurrences allows the programmer and operator to determine possible course corrections. This is an additional useful tool for maintenance, as is the new controller ability to capture and prioritize off-normal conditions for instant diagnostics as well as subsequent error analysis. Of collateral note, many machine tool builders have begun to use this feature of the advanced CNC to conduct machine-to-machine peer review, both for customers and their own internal documentation on machine performance. Most such data were not previously available and certainly not in the easy-access mode of today's control communication platforms. Major end-users, as an example, are today comparing machine performance on the same part run on two continents, by remote data gathering directly from the HMI. This can aid in determining the best facilities to do certain types of work.
Responding to the video-savvy generation of today's programmers and operators, the advanced CNC can provide workpiece visualization in a manner previously impossible. As the sophistication of 3D graphics and pixel intensity have progressed in consumer products, the HMI on today's machining centers can provide a very realistic image of a workpiece in process. The evolution of the industrial CPU has made this possible. Detail zoom, spot magnification, and rotary imaging from the CAD world also is now routine on the CNC, so the programmer, trainer, and operator alike see what the part designer required and how exactly the machine is getting to that result, in real time and with full animation of the cutting sequences.
Each programming line in the machining step editor is keyed to a function, such as facing, turning, centering, etc., or the geometric data required for said function, position pattern, or contour. The programmer decides whether the program value is to be written to the zero offset, which avoids the need for a separate backup of the zero points. Data is entered into the program in sequence and the onscreen visualization can illustrate each step in the machining sequence.
Likewise, the tool data, speeds, and feeds are entered in sequence, in a simple accumulating step editor sequence.
For more complex milling operations, the same procedure holds, while more advanced information, such as cylinder surface transformation, unmachined part input for simulation, swivel plane, high-speed settings, and even an overview of cycles for in-process measurement, can be written in a relatively simple manner, using plain language commands, onscreen prompts, and visual animation.
All machine tool kinematics are supported for full rotary axis, rotary table, robotic articulation, part manipulators, tool changers of all types, ancillary tool carousel motion, and other external devices—all in the controller with full interface to one HMI. This software development has further enhanced the multitasking machining centers for mill/turn and turn/mill work, as well as work cell concepts in the industry.
Finally, a variety of shortcut keys, not unlike those on the office PC, are provided by advanced CNC technology to permit the programmer and operator alike to further economize time.
These improvements to the CNC's graphical user interface, as well as the full range of desired cycles and functionalities, are also typically available with the CNC manufacturer's training software.

Annual Salary Survey
Participate in the 2013 Salary Survey
In a year when manufacturing continued to lead the economic rebound, it makes sense that plant manager bonuses rebounded. Plant Engineering's annual Salary Survey shows both wages and bonuses rose in 2012 after a retreat the year before.
Average salary across all job titles for plant floor management rose 3.5% to $95,446, and bonus compensation jumped to $15,162, a 4.2% increase from the 2010 level and double the 2011 total, which showed a sharp drop in bonus.

NAIROBI, July 24 (Reuters) - The Kenyan shilling
slipped on Wednesday, pressured by demand from importers buying
dollars to pay for end-of-month supplies, while shares dipped
for the third day running.
At the 1300 GMT market close, commercial banks quoted the
shilling at 87.30/50 per dollar, slightly weaker than Tuesday's
close of 87.20/40.
'We are not seeing any good sustainable inflows to counter a
very active demand side,' said Robert Gatobu, a trader at Bank
of Africa.
The shilling has been weighed down this month by importers
buying a globally stronger dollar, while inflows from tea,
Kenya's top hard currency earner, have been hit by unrest in
Egypt - the biggest buyer of Kenyan tea.
The shilling got some reprieve from the central bank selling
dollars in the market early last week after it hit a five-month
low of 87.55/75.
Traders said they expected the central bank to sell dollars
again if the shilling slid rapidly. The bank has previously said
it only intervenes in the market to stem volatility.
In stocks, the benchmark NSE-20 share index shed
0.1 percent to 4,787.78 points.
'Lack of significant demand to support the current
valuations saw most share prices shed some points,' said Afrika
investment Bank in a daily note. 'But we expect a recovery once
more first half results come in.'
Oil marketer KenolKobil lost some of the gains it
made in the last two sessions after it was readmitted to the
open tendering system, which allows a marketer to import oil on
behalf of the industry. It was down 1.2 percent to 8.55
shillings a share.
In the debt market, weighted average yields on the 15-year
bond, 182- and 364-day Treasury bills rose at auctions that were
met by low demand.
In the secondary bond market, securities worth 862 million
shillings ($9.9 million) were traded, down from 2.2 billion
shillings on Tuesday.

I don't now who this manufacturer is, but an N/A car might see 10 hp from a good reprogram, often at the cost of torque in the case of a modern engine, but no mileage improvement. What a reprogram often does is set the timing permanently to a higher octane fuel.

Meeting management software provider StarCite has decided to stop charging hotels and conference centers the per-room-night fees it had been receiving from them for group bookings generated via StarCite's supplier database and RFP engine.
"We will be moving away from transaction fees in 2010 in order to eliminate as many barriers as possible to supplier participation," says Kevin Young, senior vice president, worldwide marketing and partner management, at the Philadelphia-based company. StarCite¹s database currently includes some 93,000 meeting venues and other meeting-industry vendors.
"Since 1999 StarCite has invested millions of dollars building a database and supporting technology that provide hotels and other suppliers the ability to receive and respond to corporate group leads," Young adds. "Suppliers are provided with a free basic listing with relevant meetings specs, free access to an extranet site to manage and reply to RFPs, as well as training and customer service." StarCite continues to receive revenue from suppliers who choose to upgrade their listings within the database.
StarCite's wide range of software tools are designed to help companies track and manage meeting spending, mitigate risk, boost compliance with corporate policies, and implement other processes that make up a strategic meetings management program.

XTERRA Germany This SaturdayWritten by "Kahuna Dave" Nicholas: This weekend starts back-to-back XTERRA European Tour races in Germany and Austria. Saturday's race in Germany takes place in the small community of Zittau (pictured) in the former East Germany. This fabulous city sits in a narrow part of the country bordered by Poland and the Czech Republic. The Tour has been quiet since the Czech Championship in late June and our European brothers and sisters are ready to get back to the battle. Frenchman Franky Batelier has won the first two rounds of the Euro Tour and is gunning for the hat trick in Germany. Batelier won XTERRA Germany in 2007 and has been getting steadily better on the mountain bike. Last year the 31-year-old military officer was hampered with a sciatica nerve problem that hurt his run, which has not been a problem for him in '09. Czech Pro Karel Zadak has been having a great season with a second place finish at home in Hluboka and a close 4th behind Olivier Marceau in Italy. Michi Weiss, winner in Austria and runner-up at Maui Worlds last year, is trying to peak later in the season and has to be considered a very serious threat in Germany and to repeat in Austria. Top German Ronny Dietz lives close to the race site and has to be the local favorite, while young gun Felix Schuman has not been training due to University studies but will want to do well at these two events. For the women, the battle seems to come down to three-time XTERRA European Tour champ Renata Bucher, three-time XTERRA Germany winner Carina Wasle and the reigning European race champ Sibylle Matter. Renata won Italy, Carina won in Czech and Sibylle is a several time winner that can never be counted out. Joining them will be three Americans. Neo-Pro Brandyn Roark-Gray and USA Tour veteran from New Zealand Jen Smith will race both Germany and Austria. Hot from her 2nd place finish in Mexico, Rebecca Dussault will race in Austria. It is great to see our U.S. athletes racing in Europe. Barbara Peterson has done it for years as have dozens of others that show up from time to time. The experience is fantastic as you get to see great cultures and visit legendary places and meet XTERRA people who will welcome you with open arms. The great spirit and enthusiasm for life you find in East Germany is infectious. Every American should go and visit these folks and see just how precious true freedom is. Remember they were under Nazi or Soviet domination for the past 70 years. What they have done to bring back cities like Dresden (just an hour from Zittau) and Berlin are unbelievable. Zittau was a coal mining center for the Soviets, yet now, just 20 years past the fall; the city has returned its classic buildings and architecture to perfection and the park and lake that are the focal point of the festival was once a mining pit. Now with long, grassy fields and beaches and even a small museum and walking tour to show you what it was and compare with what the citizens have made it now. More to come next week about the XTERRA European Championship in Austria… |

Molecular Dynamics Simulations of Anti-Aggregation Effect of Ibuprofen Biophysical Journal, Volume 98, Issue 11, 2 June 2010, Pages 2662-2670 Wenling E. Chang, Takako Takeda, E. Prabhu Raman and Dmitri K. Klimov Abstract Using implicit solvent molecular dynamics and replica exchange simulations, we study the impact of ibuprofen on the growth of wild-type Aβ fibrils. We show that binding of ibuprofen to Aβ destabilizes the interactions between incoming peptides and the fibril. As a result, ibuprofen interference modifies the free energy landscape of fibril growth and reduces the free energy gain of Aβ peptide binding to the fibril by ≃2.5 RT at 360 K. Furthermore, ibuprofen interactions shift the thermodynamic equilibrium from fibril-like locked states to disordered docked states. Ibuprofen's anti-aggregation effect is explained by its competition with incoming Aβ peptides for the same binding site located on the fibril edge. Although ibuprofen impedes fibril growth, it does not significantly change the mechanism of fibril elongation or the structure of Aβ peptides bound to the fibril.

Probing Energetics of Aβ Fibril Elongation by Molecular Dynamics Simulations Biophysical Journal, Volume 96, Issue 11, 3 June 2009, Pages 4428-4437 Takako Takeda and Dmitri K. Klimov Abstract Using replica exchange molecular dynamics simulations and an all-atom implicit solvent model, we probed the energetics of Aβ10–40 fibril growth. The analysis of the interactions between incoming Aβ peptides and the fibril led us to two conclusions. First, considerable variations in fibril binding propensities are observed along the Aβ sequence. The peptides in the fibril and those binding to its edge interact primarily through their N-termini. Therefore, the mutations affecting the Aβ positions 10–23 are expected to have the largest impact on fibril elongation compared with those occurring in the C-terminus and turn. Second, we performed weak perturbations of the binding free energy landscape by scanning partial deletions of side-chain interactions at various Aβ sequence positions. The results imply that strong side-chain interactions—in particular, hydrophobic contacts—impede fibril growth by favoring disordered docking of incoming peptides. Therefore, fibril elongation may be promoted by moderate reduction of Aβ hydrophobicity. The comparison with available experimental data is presented. Abstract | Full Text | PDF (1550 kb) |
Mapping Conformational Ensembles of Aβ Oligomers in Molecular Dynamics Simulations Biophysical Journal, Volume 99, Issue 6, 22 September 2010, Pages 1949-1958 Seongwon Kim, Takako Takeda and Dmitri K. Klimov Abstract Although the oligomers formed by Aβ peptides appear to be the primary cytotoxic species in Alzheimer's disease, detailed information about their structures appears to be lacking. In this article, we use exhaustive replica exchange molecular dynamics and an implicit solvent united-atom model to study the structural properties of Aβ monomers, dimers, and tetramers. Our analysis suggests that the conformational ensembles of Aβ dimers and tetramers are very similar, but sharply distinct from those sampled by the monomers. The key conformational difference between monomers and oligomers is the formation of β-structure in the oligomers occurring together with the loss of intrapeptide interactions and helix structure. Our simulations indicate that, independent of oligomer order, the Aβ aggregation interface is largely confined to the sequence region 10–23, which forms the bulk of interpeptide interactions. We show that the fractions of β structure computed in our simulations and measured experimentally are in good agreement. Abstract | Full Text | PDF (834 kb) |

Department of Bioinformatics and Computational Biology, George Mason University, Manassas, Virginia
Replica exchange molecular dynamics and an all-atom implicit solvent model are used to probe the thermodynamics of deposition of Alzheimer's Aβ monomers on preformed amyloid fibrils. Consistent with the experiments, two deposition stages have been identified. The docking stage occurs over a wide temperature range, starting with the formation of the first peptide-fibril interactions at 500 K. Docking is completed when a peptide fully adsorbs on the fibril edge at the temperature of 380 K. The docking transition appears to be continuous, and occurs without free energy barriers or intermediates. During docking, incoming Aβ monomer adopts a disordered structure on the fibril edge. The locking stage occurs at the temperature of ≈360 K and is characterized by the rugged free energy landscape. Locking takes place when incoming Aβ peptide forms a parallel β-sheet structure on the fibril edge. Because the β-sheets formed by locked Aβ peptides are typically off-registry, the structure of the locked phase differs from the structure of the fibril interior. The study also reports that binding affinities of two distinct fibril edges with respect to incoming Aβ peptides are different. The peptides bound to the concave edge have significantly lower free energy compared to those bound on the convex edge. Comparison with the available experimental data is discussed.

I agree that Shawn got the shaft. Alison is immature and couldn't take any constructive criticism. She was overly sensitive. He didn't "do" anything to her!
Shawn Thomas started his business when he was broke, and now ten years later, he's worth $20 million (high achiever type). He's 42, never been married, no kids, but wants a family. Celebrity crush: Jessica Biel. I pick up right away that he's Mr. Bossy-Pants. When he says he's been accused of treating his girlfriends like an employee, he ain't kidding.
Chef K meets me at the Rose Café; age range she wants is 25 to 35, and someone who wants to settle down and is very serious about marriage and wants children. But the wife has to have the kids, not her. Chef K really wants someone to come home to.
I agree that Shawn got the shaft. Alison is immature and couldn't take any constructive criticism. She was overly sensitive. He didn't "do" anything to her!
Shawn just said her views about all the guardedness was naive and I agree totally... Patti was way to rough on him...
I don't think Shawn was as much of a problem as everyone seems to think, him and Alison were just completely incompatible. Alison has her guard way up and could probably only date a sensitive emotional guy, if she doesn't walk all over him. She also seemed way too young for Shawn. He would only get along with a total slave or a 'put together' woman who didn't care that much for him emotionally.
I'm happy you finally found someone, Patti! But good Lord honey let's keep the tongue in check.. and in the bedroom!! Shawn was a complete jerk. Allison was so good at keeping herself conducted! If I were her and my date called me naive, I would've slapped him! Chef K seemed nice, but why didn't she follow-up with Rocio?? Shame. Well good luck to you and your man! I am VERY interested to see what your wedding will be like! ;)
If anyone needs to go see a shrink, it's Alison. Wow...she looks like she could snap a guys head off. Shawn was right, she was being naive. You have to be ready to take the risk of getting hurt going into a relationship, or you're not ready to date. Maybe Patti missed the video of their date when Miss Pissy Pants got so indignant she couldn't have a rational conversation. Shawn was mature enough to suck it up when Patti told him he needs to see a shrink, and that speaks volumes about Shawn. Patti's usually on target, but she's way off on this one. Alison will be a nightmare to date...the guy will have to walk on egg shells with her...guaranteed!
Shawn is a condescending a--hole. Allison is well rid of him. Patti-- I hope you can find her someone nice!
I am so disappointed in Chef Kay though!!! For apparently not following through after that great first date. Gee whiz!!! I hope you help Rocio find another cool chick!
I am so so happy for Patti & David!!! I am starting to have more confidence in my ability to date after seeing so many people with so many personality/psychology defects on your show. I need to work on my money and looks---but many of these rich and/or gorgeous people have serious indelible issues.
I think patty is good at what she does and the average man doesn't need help. Self absorbed idiots do!
Its easy to be a matchmaker when you've got a hook by this I mean wealthy or women that are in their 20's and 30's that look like what she recruits. That's an easy people to match. Lets challenge Patty to take the average income and looking people and see how great of a matchmaker she really is. Just saying what everyone else is think.
Based on what we saw on the program, Alison came across as defensive and not ready to take any risk for a relationship. Shawn, on the other hand, is ready to take a risk. It got heated from there. Why did Alison show up at Patty's office unexpectedly? Drama. Of course, Patty has all of the video of the date, but based on what we saw we disagree with Patty's conclusion.
I am so happy for you and David! I hope you find your true love. You totally deserve it! He looks like a great guy.
@KKinNaples I agree. When Patti was interviewing the ladies, she did tell them that this guy was relationship ready. I knew that it was not gonna work when she refused the kiss.
@KKinNaples Shawn is arrogant and overbearing. These are not attractive traits. Any self-respecting woman would have reacted the same way.
lawgirl163 is spot on. KKinNaples would figure this out after spending 30 mins with shawn. I would encourage any woman to not make conclusions based on a show that probably made several edits and revisions. Im telling you...Patty is spot on..why do you think a good looking millionaire who just moved to Cali last year needs to come on the show to find a woman? Think about it ..... he is arrogant and has no idea how to treat a woman because he can't get past his own narcissistic self. I guarantee you he initially wanted to be on the show bc he loves the attention and thinks he's got life aaaaaall figured out for every one...yet he is still not married and has no kids in his early forties. I only know enough about him to know that he is dangerous to any woman's emotional well being, but I think deep down there is a lot of insecurity and some really dark issues that need to be resolved. I was engaged to a Narcissisist and I recognized these red flags with Shawn right off the bat.

Reviews for Hearty Pasta Soup Mix(3)
Sort By :
This is good soup. I made only a half recipe since a full recipe would be too much for us. Rather than using cooked chicken, I used an 8 oz. can of mushroom pieces, rinsed and drained, for a meatless version of this soup. It was a thick and hearty soup. Using the half recipe amounts, we had four meal-size servings of this soup.
I received this as a gift. I did not have any chicken on hand, so I used 1/2 lb of smoked sausage. It was delicious! I plan to make this as gifts next year.
I made these jars for Christmas gifts this year. I actually cooked up a pot of the soup before giving the jars to my friends - and I found it to be quite tasty (maybe not the all time best soup I've ever had - but very good.)
I used the savory herb with garlic soup mix - not the vegetable one.
I suggest buying the wide mouth jars -for easy of filling/emptying. I succeeded in finding the jars at a local thrift shop, then just purchased the (new) metal lids at the grocery store. I decorated the tops with fabric squares, ribbon, and cards. My total cost per jar was apx $5-$6 and they were well received gifts.

Flower Bulbs
Gardening at its most simple and elegant.
We get a lot of questions about flower bulbs, but most involve when to plant them. Quite simply, "fall" flower bulbs are planted in the fall, grow roots into winter, then sprout and bloom in the spring. These include favorites such as tulips, daffodils, hyacinth and others. "Spring" flower bulbs are also known as tender bulbs (they don't survive cold ground temperatures); they're planted in the spring and flower throughout the summer. They include dahlias, glads, cannas, calla lilies and others. You can view these products by their planting seasons — Fall Planted Bulbs or Spring Planted Bulbs — or simply use the filters on the left to help you choose.
