The Cleveland Browns waived quarterback Caleb Hanie yesterday and signed running back Edwin Baker off the Houston Texans' practice squad.
Hanie was signed last week as a free agent, and served as the backup to Jason Campbell during a 27-26 loss to the New England Patriots on Sunday. Hanie's departure means that Brandon Weeden might be closer to being cleared from his concussion.
Baker was signed, in part, because running back Willis McGahee suffered a concussion against the Patriots and is in the NFL's concussion protocol.
Baker, 5 feet 8, 210 pounds, was a seventh-round draft choice out of Michigan State by San Diego in 2012.
The club also re-signed linebacker Justin Staples to the practice squad and released linebacker Jonathan Stewart from the practice squad.
Bengals waive fullback
The Cincinnati Bengals have waived fullback Chris Pressley, who was out the entire season because of a knee injury.
Pressley went on the physically unable to perform list because of a knee injury before training camp began. He recently was cleared to resume practice on a roster exemption, which expired yesterday.
The Bengals also chose not to add quarterback Zac Robinson to the active roster. He's been on the physically unable to perform list because of a sore elbow. He'll remain on the injury list for the rest of the season.
• Washington Redskins owner Daniel Snyder will not intervene into the team's quarterback situation this week as coach Mike Shanahan contemplates benching starter Robert Griffin III for the remainder of the season in favor of backup Kirk Cousins, a person familiar with the situation said.
• The NFL will move the game between Chicago and Philadelphia to the prime-time slot on Dec. 22. The visiting Bears will meet the Eagles at 8:30 p.m. The New England Patriots game against the Baltimore Ravens will move to 4:25 p.m.

V2.0 beta: Footnotes
I have a few questions about footnotes in Save as DAISY version 2.0. I am using the beta version.
1. How does the Accessibility->Add Footnote button work? Whenever I click it, it either asks me to select footnote text, or says it cannot find the referenced footnote text. I can check for the exact wording if it helps. I tried both before creating Word footnotes (with a button under "References") and after, and I tried selecting the text I wanted to make into a footnote, the text of the footnote number, and the text of the footnote after it was created. Nothing worked.
2. However, the footnotes I created using Word's built-in feature were marked up correctly in my exported DTBook document. What I found, though, was that the placement was strange. For example, a footnote near the end of a chapter produced a DTBook file that looks like this:
Chapter 3
Paragraph with footnote reference [1]
end of chapter 3
Chapter 4
Byline text
Footnote #1 text
First paragraph of chapter 4
end example
This causes the display to show the footnote for Chapter 3 in the middle of Chapter 4. This oddity also shows up in the MP3 files that get generated by the Pipeline. It sounds like "Chapter 4. Byline. Footnote from somewhere else. Rest of chapter 4."
Please let me know if you would like more information, including document samples.

Re: V2.0 beta: Footnotes
Hi Marisa,
1. The Accessibility -> "Add Footnote" button functionality has no linking with Office word's default footnote and word's
custom footnotes. Footnotes are found missing when scanned documents are converted back to the document. In
such a scenario, the footnote text can be selected by the user and he would have the provision to see all the
available occurrence of the reference throughout the document. Please refer Footnotes section in
Daisy_Translator_Instruction_Manual for further information.
2. In the DAISY Translator, Footnotes are designed to appear at the end of each page in the document. So, in
your document it seems that Chapter3 ends in the same page from where Chapter4 starts. So, the Footnote
reference appears in Chapter3 and Footnote text is in the middle of Chapter4. It is suggested to start Chapter4
in the new page.

Unemployed and Unemployment Rates,
The Statistical Abstract files are distributed by the US Census Department as Microsoft Excel files. These files have data mixed with notes and references, multiple tables per sheet, and, worst of all, the table headers are not easily matched to their rows and columns.
A few files had extraneous characters in the title. These were corrected to be consistent. A few files have a sheet of crufty gibberish in the first slot. The sheet order was shuffled but no data were changed.
The tables that were changed (this is table 609):

Morphenomenal 'Struggled Reagans' will possibly give universe an STD
We've been fans of Gregg Golding, aka hyperreal rapper Odynophagia, for years. We've also been waiting for his epic movie Struggled Reagans to be released for years. And now it's gonna be! "Taking inspiration from Power Rangers, decaying tokusatsu, & nightmares of '90s children," the film will debut at New People, Wed/11, 9pm as part of the Another Hole in the Head fest.
Golding told us:
"Ok: This film is off brand dollar store knockoff action figures from Asia, and the nightmares that followed. There is a tumor in the collective unconscious. In our myth of deluded comfort, we call upon the Reagans to pierce a laser beam through the core of Samsara. It's a movement. #struggledreagans #VaginalCucumberReagan #TeamAntoine #StruggledReagansClitTattoo
Don't just see the movie, live it. The chemical burns of your past fears are a mutagen; igniting the sacred trauma tumor. It's morphin' time! Bask as a cosplay spandex mmmmmm (The sound when spandex thighs rub. Helmet visor fogs, dodging a fireball.) When you come to the screening....in a giant robot. See you Wednesday. Meet the first 6 Struggled Reagans to become the next 6 billion."

Just in case you mistakenly heard that it was all ice and snow in Russia, take a peek at the Big Bikini Exposition. This is right on the river Moskva in Moscow!
Moscow has been the capital of Russia for almost its entire history. The exception is during the period of the Russian Empire, which lasted from 1721 until the Russian Revolution 1917. For these two centuries the capital was St. Petersburg. The Russian Empire was the second largest contiguous Empire in world memory; only the Mongol Empire had been greater.

Although you may not have heard of Sochi, on the Black Sea, they're building up quickly and hope to host the 2014 Olympics.
Other periods of Russian history include the Tsardom of Russia, from Ivan IV to Peter the Great, and the Grand Duchy (14th-16th centuries).
The earliest period of Russian history was ruled by the Novgorod Republic and Kievan Rus, which was the first Russian state dating back to 800AD in Kiev.
Modern Russia remains one of the world's superpowers. They launched the earth's second satellite, called Sputnik 1, and were the first country to put a human being into orbit around earth. (The first one is called the Moon.)
After the breakup of the Soviet Union in 1991, Russia became a federal republic of 83 states.

Warsaw - Castle Square
The World > Europe > Poland > Warsaw
The Royal Castle in Warsaw is a castle residency and was the official residence of the Polish monarchs. It is located in the Castle Square, at the entrance to the Warsaw Old Town. The personal offices of the king and the administrative offices of the Royal Court of Poland were located there from the 16th century until the Partitions of Poland.

Europe is generally agreed to be the birthplace of western culture, including such legendary innovations as the democratic nation-state, football and tomato sauce.
The word Europe comes from the Greek goddess Europa, who was kidnapped by Zeus and plunked down on the island of Crete. Europa gradually changed from referring to mainland Greece until it extended finally to include Norway and Russia.
Don't be confused that Europe is called a continent without looking like an island, the way the other continents do. It's okay. The Ural mountains have steadily been there to divide Europe from Asia for the last 250 million years. Russia technically inhabits "Eurasia".
Europe is presently uniting into one political and economic zone with a common currency called the Euro. The European Union originated in 1993 and is now composed of 27 member states. Its headquarters is in Brussels, Belgium.
Do not confuse the EU with the Council of Europe, which has 47 member states and dates to 1949. These two bodies share the same flag, national anthem, and mission of integrating Europe. The headquarters of the Council are located in Strasbourg, France, and it is most famous for its European Court of Human Rights.
In spite of these two bodies, there is still no single Constitution or set of laws applying to all the countries of Europe. Debate rages over the role of the EU in regards to national sovereignty. As of January 2009, the Lisbon Treaty is the closest thing to a European Constitution, yet it has not been approved by all the EU states.

How do I change the background color from white to black? Or any other color for that matter. Thanks
Ok, I should clarify. I found out by right clicking and picking options I can change the background to any color. What I need to do is change the raster image that was inserted to white (it is currently black). On one computer both the background and raster insert are white and on another the exact same drawing they both come out black. There has to be a setting some where that I missed. Thanks.
Thank you for your question.
It sounds like there are transparent images in your file. Once you change the background color to white, the images became white, and if you change background color to black, the images come out black.
If this is not your case, please attach your test file to this post for deep investigation.

K is for Knife
That should be sharp but wasn't…
at least my thumb is still attached! Might take a while before the tip quite matches the other.
I checked to be sure no flesh or liquid proteins were in the taboule, got dh off the roof to finish cutting up the vegetables, and we took it to a party.
Does anybody remember when this blog was over on livejournal? I had no idea when I started it up what a pain in the butt livejournal is, or what other options were. Thankfully in July last year I migrated over here (with all the old posts, but without the old comments… some hard to work around glitch in the whole LJ to wordpress thing).
I had a mini contest here where folks could guess what was living on my kitchen table. Cathy-Cate guessed a corn snake and won (it was a garter snake), but I couldn't find her. So I randomly drew another name, sent the yarn off to Ruth, and have felt badly about it in a small way since.
So Cathy's getting a small thank you package. She did such a good thing raising money for some good causes, and if she ever realized she won something that she never got, well, she's been too nice to say anything, and she still reads and comments over here… so Thanks Cathy-Cate… we all know who you are now!

It's been a painful last 13 games, and probably like a lot of you guys, at some point since last night's game, I thought "seriously, what are the odds of losing all these close games" ? So I googled "nba win probability" , and then I just entered 1 late gate situation for each of the 7 losses. There were actually situations in each of these games where our win probability was higher, but I restricted myself to only situations in the last 4 minutes. Here is the link to the win probability calculator I used.
Here are the situations, with the winning probability in parentheses/bold:
1) Up 3 with 0:09 left without possession at Houston (92.4%)
2) Up 6 with 4:00 left with possession at Dallas (88.2%)
3) Up 1 with 0:13 left with possession vs the L*kers (84.6%)
4) Tied with 1:35 left without possession vs San Antonio (44.8%)
5) Up 1 with 3:03 left without possession at the Clippers (54.2%)
6) Up 2 with 2:11 left without possession vs OKC (64.6%)
7) Up 3 with 0:09 left without possession at Indiana (92.4%)
The odds of losing all 7 games:
0.00094% or less than 1 in 100,000
So yeah, there is my completely unnecessary and frivolous fanpost about how incredibly unlikely it is we keep losing these games. I think it's important to note these things tend to even out over time, and we are way overdue to cash in on one of these opportunities.
And last but not least, Go Blazers!!!!

Trent Boult talks about not beating England in Auckland and confesses to providing misleading information about himself
Interview by Nagraj Gollapudi
May 6, 2013
Related Links
Players/Officials: Trent Boult
Teams: New Zealand
Do you still brood about the final over you bowled against Matt Prior in the third Test in Auckland?
It was frustrating to not get that final wicket. I know that the bowling group and myself had put in everything we could, especially on that last day. We tried as much as we could so. It was a case of being so near yet so far.
What were you thinking when you turned in to deliver that final ball?
I remember thinking: I have got to make him play. I knew I did not want to bowl a delivery at the sixth stump, which would be a waste of time. If I had my time again maybe I would have thrown in a yorker.
Define aggression.
When you can tell from someone's body language that he is in a fight and it is a battlefield out there. Dale Steyn is a perfect example of that. You can see the fire in his face, how much he is up for the occasion.
You have said Wasim Akram is one your idols. What did you like about his bowling?
I loved how he could move the ball. Those are the kind of skills I'm trying to do in my bowling: swing the ball as much as I can and bowl at a good clip. I just loved the way he moved the ball both ways with such control.
What is the most difficult thing to do for a left-arm fast bowler?
To move the ball consistently is the challenge.
What is the one rule you would like changed or brought into cricket?
Use DRS consistently across the game.
Tell us something we don't know about you.
My player page on ESPNcricinfo says that I would be a chef if not for cricket. That is not actually correct. During the Under-19 World Cup in 2008, I filled out a form and I tried to be funny, saying I wanted to be a chef. And it has stuck with me. I can't cook.*
Do you play golf?
My handicap is 4. Back in New Zealand I am a member of a local club. It helps me take my mind off cricket.
Has cricket ever given you sleepless nights?
Many. There was this interesting incident before my Test debut. I knew I was not playing. I turned up on the morning of the game and Daniel Vettori got injured and I only had about 30 minutes to gather my thoughts and get ready. In a way that worked out better rather than if I had known the night before that I was playing.
What has been your most embarrassing moment on the field?
When I was younger, my team needed two runs to win and we had something like ten overs left and I ran myself out. For some reason I was trying to win it in one ball.
Have you ever hit a winning six?
It came during the second match of the ODI series against India Under-19 in 2007. It all came down to the last ball and we needed six. I hit my first-ever six.
Have you ever met Sir Richard Hadlee?
Yes, a few times. His message has been to be consistent and to ask the right questions and ask them over a long time. He is a man who speaks about patience and hanging in there and having control.

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (BP)--Trustees for the Southern Baptist Convention's Ethics & Religious Liberty Commission applauded the reach of the entity's iVoteValues.com initiative during their annual meetings in Nashville, while getting an update on the work of the ERLC.
iVoteValues.com is a "grassroots voter mobilization and education effort" to inform citizens of the importance of registering to vote and making voting decisions based on their biblically based values, explained Richard Land, president of the ERLC.
"People need to be registered, to be informed and to vote their values," Land said. The iVoteValues.com initiative is not about telling people whom to vote for, but about telling them they have an obligation and responsibility to be an informed participant in the electoral process, he said.
He said the ERLC had been "overwhelmed by the response to the iVoteValues.com effort." Over 92,000 people have visited the iVoteValues.com Web site, and over 9,000 Voter Impact Toolkits have been distributed, he said. More than 20,000 people have toured the initiative's Mobile Voter Registration Rig and Information Center as it has traveled the U.S. The iVoteValues.com party platform comparison resource will be published in late September, he added, indicating pre-orders for the unique product are outpacing 2000 when three reprints of the piece were sold out.
It has been an interesting year, Land told the trustees. "One issue rocketed to the fore -- the protection of marriage as it has been defined by God and Western Civilization for several millennia," he explained, noting the ERLC has entered into strategic relationships with like-minded groups, such as Focus on the Family, to make evangelical Christians aware of the battle for marriage.
The institution of marriage has come under "direct attack," Land continued, warning that if marriage is redefined to include the union of two men or two women, that will be only the beginning. "If all marriage is about is individuals in a 'loving, caring relationship,' then who is to say that polygamy, incest, or bestiality should not also be legalized?" he said.
Citing statistics showing a significant majority of Americans believe marriage is only to be between one man and one woman, he noted when citizens of a state vote on a measure relating to same-sex "marriage," they vote against it.
"Yet preachers are reticent to talk about this issue from their pulpits," Land said. "We aren't talking about it like we talk about abortion."
So the question remains -- "Do we have the spiritual calcium in our backbone to speak to this issue and hold the politicians' feet to the fire?" Land said. The future of civilization is at stake, he continued, and it's up to voters in the U.S. to elect the candidates who are committed to protecting the institution of marriage.
"Mere legislation will not suffice," he said. "The courts can strike down whatever Congress passes." He said Defense of Marriage Acts adopted by states and the federal government and designed to preserve traditional marriage run a high risk of being thrown out by the courts.
"We must federally define marriage in the U.S. Constitution or it will be federally defined by six judges in D.C.," Land insisted, referring to the U.S. Supreme Court. He noted the House of Representatives is expected to consider the Marriage Protection Act Sept. 20. A July 14 attempt to bring similar legislation to vote in the Senate failed.
Land noted a live simulcast and Web cast, focusing on the battle to preserve marriage, would be held on the eve of the vote. Joining Land in hosting the international event Sept. 17 will be James Dobson of Focus on the Family, Tony Perkins of the Family Research Council, and Ronnie Floyd, pastor of First Baptist Church of Springdale, Ark., where the broadcast will originate. More information on the simulcast is available by clicking on the WeVoteValues.com link at www.faithandfamily.com.
If marriage is redefined, the costs will be tremendous, Land said. It will destroy the family, be catastrophic for children, collapse the nation's health care system, bankrupt the Social Security system and be a death knell for religious freedom, he said.
In other business, trustees:
* named Don Wildmon, founder and executive director of the American Family Association, as the 2004 recipient of the Richard D. Land Distinguished Service Award. Wildmon is a "great man of God," Land said. A humble and wise man, Wildmon "isn't afraid of anyone, anytime, at any place, except the Lord Jesus Christ," Land said.
* awarded U.S. Congressman Frank Wolf (R-Va.) the ERLC's John Leland Religious Liberty Award for 2004. Land said Wolf, a member of the House's powerful Appropriations Committee, has been a "consistent champion of human rights and religious freedom." He brings "his faith to practice in his public policy work," Land added.
* signed off on a $3 million budget for the ERLC's 2004-2005 fiscal year, expressing appreciation for several cost-cutting measures instituted by the ERLC in the past year.
* named Daniel Heimbach, professor of Christian Ethics at Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary in Wake Forest, N.C., and Jerry Johnson, president of Criswell College in Dallas, as fellows of the ERLC's Research Institute. The research institute serves to advise and assist the ERLC in equipping Southern Baptists and others in the areas of ethics, morality and public policy.
* elected David Willets of Ruston, La., as chairman of the ERLC's Board of Trustees and Jeff Isenhour of Fayetteville, N.C., as vice-chairman. Jean Hughes of Riceland, Wash., was reelected secretary.

By limiting how long Sailors can remain in the Navy, the HYT program increases advancement opportunity for high-performing Sailors across paygrades and Length of Service (LOS). The following HYT LOS gates have been established based on pay grade:
Command master chiefs may exceed 30 years of service with certain provisions. HYT waiver requests are considered on a case-by-case basis for approval. Requests to continue beyond a Sailor's current HYT date in support of an urgent and immediate operational requirement, in a deployed or soon to be deployed unit, or in an undermanned rating have the best chance of being approved. All waiver requests for active-duty and Reserve Sailors must arrive at Navy Personnel Command (NPC) ten months prior to the service member's HYT date. MILPERSMAN 1160-120 is a revision of the HYT policy that will incorporate both active-duty and Reserve policy, and will be effective 1 July 2012. For more information, visit the HYT Web Page on the NPC website at www.npc.navy.mil/CAREER/RESERVEPERSONNELMGMT/ENLISTED/Pages/HYT.aspx or call the NPC Customer Service Center at 1-866-U-ASK-NPC or 1-866-827-5672.

Breaking: Obama throws his entire church under the bus?!
Drew M. at Ace says he just saw it on CNN. I'll look around for some info.
I guess he needed more time to plan that trip to Iran, huh?
YEP. UPDATE: CNN says Barry and Trinity are splitsville:
CNN is reporting this afternoon that Sen. Barack Obama is leaving Trinity United Church of Christ, his longtime religious home on Chicago's South Side and a place that has triggered repeated controversies during his presidential bid.
Whew! It's a good thing Obama got out in front of this controversy before it started to hurt him.
UPDATE: Here's the YouTube of his press conference. I think he did this about as well as he could–the way he tells it, that gosh-darn press was harassing Trinity, so he's trying to leave them in peace–but it's still going to hurt him.
He sat in those pews for twenty years and was quite familiar with what goes on there. He benefited from that association as he rose in Illinois politics, but as he himself admits, Trinity's radical, politicized preaching is now hurting his Presidential campaign. Business is business:

5 gallon carboy, Coopers 3.75# can of Irish Stout Extract
Instructions say to fill fermenter (my carboy) with 20 liters of water, add extract mixture and top off to 23 liters. My carboy only holds (to the neck) about 19 liters. Can I use the whole can with my 2# of Briess Light Unhopped Malt Extract, Willamette hops, US-05 yeast and 3/4 cup of Hersey's Cocoa? Or should I calculate the percentages and only use the percentage of extract that it takes to fill to 18.88 liters (5 gallons)?
I usually use Mr. Beer recipes, but they are restructuring since Coopers bought them out. That's why I went to my LHBS and got this self built recipe.
I just don't know if I've got enough volume in this 5 gallon carboy.
Chime in with any helpful information.
Went by the brew shop to pick my new (to me) glass 5 gallon carboy. Talked to the dudes in there and they assured me I had the classic freak out. Ignore the 23 liters instruction and just fill my carboy up to the base of the neck and put the airlock on it and walk away.
Brew time set for Saturday evening.
If you are filling your carboy all the way up to the top, you will need a blow-off tube. Did the dudes at local brew shop tell you that?
This also sounds like you're not boiling or adding any hops at all. You aren't just dumping all of this into the carboy are you?
head space and blow offs are the only issue.
I already have blow off.
Yes I am adding hops. Willamette.
3.75# can of Coopers Irish stout HME
2# of Briess Light Dry UME
Willamette Hops
Fermentis US-05 dry yeast
This being my first 5 gallon batch, I have been doing some pretty extensive research. I bought my recipe before I found that steeping extra grains makes a better tasting beer, but I didn't do that with my original Triple Chocolate Stout, I made with the MR Beer kit.
Only thing I gotta do now is cook it up, poor it in and modify my cooling system to accommodate my 5 gallon carboy.
Just a heads up - those Coopers Stout kits ferment like crazy. Just keep and eye on it for over flows!
I screwed up on the Briess UDME boil. I found out what the hop boil is all about when using a carboy instead of a Mr. Beer LBK. You put the hop sack into the LBK when you set it for fermenting. You only boil the hops for 5 minutes with Mr. Beer's recipes. I kept the hop sack in the wort till I got it in the carboy with the measuring cup, I was using to transfer the wort from the pot to the carboy. I squeezed it pretty good to get the liquid out of it. Then poured the rest of the wort into the carboy via the pot thru the funnel. After I got about 14 liters of liquid into the carboy, I realized that I forgot to boil the UDME. So, I dissolved it into the cocoa slurry and about 2 liters of water. Then transferred it into the carboy.
I made a 1 hour job turn into a 3 hour ordeal. I did get the whole recipe into the carboy, but I made it hard on myself to get it cooled for yeast pitch. I use frozen 20 oz. water bottles for my Mr. Beer batches and had to use all 12 of them to cool this wort down to temp to pitch the yeast. It was a chore, but it got done.
What do you guys use to stir the contents of the carboy once they are filled with their liquid. I used my racking cane to stir it. I have my carboy in a large, plastic storage thing. Plenty tall enough to house my carboy plus airlock (blow off). I froze some milk jugs full of water and there is room enough in it for 3 milk jugs. Stuck one on top of the carboy and the temp, this morning, was 72 degrees. On the way down to 65 degrees. One milk jug every 12 or so hours. Oh, I wrapped the storage thing with two really thick blankets. I usually use a fairly large styrofoam cooler for my Mr. Beer LBK and chill it with 1/2 gallon juice jugs, filled with water and frozen.
Ok. I think I've rambled on long enough about last night'e experience.
New techniques=New CHALLENGES!
BTW, it turned out ok. Didn't add enough cocoa. Used conditioning tablets instead of sugar. Didn't carbonate like I wanted it to. It doesn't have good head retention. Tastes kinda like a Guinness. Kinda flat and stouty.

Bright pulses of light could make space veggies more nutritious, says CU-Boulder study
Printer-friendly versionPDF version
March 4, 2014 •
Exposing leafy vegetables grown during spaceflight to a few bright pulses of light daily could increase the amount of eye-protecting nutrients produced by the plants, according to a new study by researchers at the University of Colorado Boulder.
One of the concerns for astronauts during future extended spaceflights will be the onslaught of eye-damaging radiation they'll be exposed to. But astronauts should be able to mitigate radiation-induced harm to their eyes by eating plants that contain carotenoids, especially zeaxanthin, which is known to promote eye health.
Zeaxanthin could be ingested as a supplement, but there is evidence that human bodies are better at absorbing carotenoids from whole foods, such as green leafy vegetables.
Already, NASA has been studying ways to grow fresh produce during deep space missions to maintain crew morale and improve overall nutrition. Current research into space gardening tends to focus on getting the plants to grow as large as possible as quickly as possible by providing optimal light, water and fertilizer. But the conditions that are ideal for producing biomass are not necessarily ideal for the production of many nutrients, including zeaxanthin.
"There is a trade-off," said Barbara Demmig-Adams, professor of distinction in the Department of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology and a co-author of the study published in the journal Acta Astronautica. "When we pamper plants in the field, they produce a lot of biomass but they aren't very nutritious. If they have to fend for themselves—if they have to defend themselves against pathogens or if there's a little bit of physical stress in the environment—plants make defense compounds that help them survive. And those are the antioxidants that we need."
Plants produce zeaxanthin when their leaves are absorbing more sunlight than they can use, which tends to happen when the plants are stressed. For example, a lack of water might limit the plant's ability to use all the sunlight it's getting for photosynthesis. To keep the excess sunlight from damaging the plant's biochemical pathways, it produces zeaxanthin, a compound that helps safely remove excess light.
Zeaxanthin, which the human body cannot produce on its own, plays a similar protective role in our eyes.
"Our eyes are like a leaf—they are both about collecting light," Demmig-Adams said. "We need the same protection to keep us safe from intense light."
The CU-Boulder research team—which also included undergraduate researcher Elizabeth Lombardi, postdoctoral researcher Christopher Cohu and ecology and evolutionary biology Professor William Adams—set out to determine if they could find a way to "have the cake and eat it too" by simultaneously maximizing plant growth and zeaxanthin production.
Using the model plant species Arabidopsis, the team demonstrated that a few pulses of bright light on a daily basis spurred the plants to begin making zeaxanthin in preparation for an expected excess of sunlight. The pulses were short enough that they didn't interfere with the otherwise optimal growing conditions, but long enough to cause accumulation of zeaxanthin.
"When they get poked a little bit with light that's really not a problem, they get the biomechanical machine ready, and I imagine them saying, 'Tomorrow there may be a huge blast and we don't want to be unprepared,' " Demmig-Adams said.
Arabidopsis is not a crop, but past research has shown that its behavior is a good indicator of what many edible plant species will do under similar circumstances.
The idea for the study came from Lombardi, who began thinking about the challenges of growing plants during long spaceflights while working with CU-Boulder's Exploration Habitat graduate projects team in the Department of Aerospace Engineering Sciences, which built a robotic gardening system that could be used in space.
While the study is published in an astronautics journal, Lombardi says the findings are applicable on Earth as well and could be especially relevant for future research into plant-based human nutrition and urban food production, which must maximize plant growth in small areas. The findings also highlight the potential for investigating how to prod plants to express traits that are already written in their genetic codes either more fully or less fully.
"Learning more about what plants already 'know' how to do and trying to manipulate them through changing their environment rather than their genes could possibly be a really fruitful area of research," Lombardi said.
The study was funded by the National Science Foundation and CU-Boulder's Undergraduate Research Opportunities Program.
"There is a trade-off," said Barbara Demmig-Adams, professor of distinction in the Department of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology and a co-author of the study published in the journal Acta Astronautica. "When we pamper plants in the field, they produce a lot of biomass but they aren't very nutritious. If they have to fend for themselves—if they have to defend themselves against pathogens or if there's a little bit of physical stress in the environment—plants make defense compounds that help them survive. And those are the antioxidants that we need."

Natalie's Review
Bodega Catena Zapata Syrah 2006, Mendoza, Argentina: Vintages Wine Panel: In the April 2009 issue of Decanter, Nicolás Catena was declared 'Man of the Year' for 2009, with the U.K. magazine crediting him with changing the direction of Argentina's wine industry. This Syrah, sourced from the family's own vineyards, is layered with black cherry, raspberry, spice and floral notes supported by dusty tannins and well-balanced acidity all leading to a lengthy finish. My note: Juicy, generous and lush with ripe aromas of dark berries and plums. Some pepper spice and fine polished tannins for a velvet mouth-feel. Can't think of a better wine for barbecues and campfires. 55483 13.50% XD 750 mL $19.95 Score: 90/100. June 6, 2009 Full Review

Investing.com - European stocks pushed higher on Thursday, as global equity markets remained supported after the Federal Reserve said interest rates would remain low for some time.
During European afternoon trade, the DJ Euro Stoxx 50 jumped 1.12%, France's CAC 40 climbed 0.91%, while Germany's DAX advanced 0.76%.
At the conclusion of its two-day meeting on Wednesday, the Fed cut its bond purchases by another $10 billion a month, to $35 billion, saying there was "sufficient underlying strength" in the U.S. economy to continue tapering.
Despite this, the Fed also lowered its forecast for growth this year to a range of 2.1% to 2.3% from 2.8 to 3.0% previously, due to "unexpected contractions" in the first quarter as a result of the unusually harsh winter. The central bank still acknowledged a broad improvement in the labor market.
The Fed said it expects the federal-funds rate, currently close to zero, to reach 1.2% by the end of next year and 2.5% by the end of 2016, a slightly faster rate of tightening than formerly expected.
Financial stocks remained broadly higher, as French lenders Societe Generale (PARIS:SOGN) and BNP Paribas (PARIS:BNPP) advanced 2.04% and 0.81%, while Germany''s Deutsche Bank (XETRA:DBKGn) climbed 0.85%.
Among peripheral lenders, Italy''s Intesa Sanpaolo (MILAN:ISP) and Unicredit (MILAN:CRDI) rallied 1.43% and 1.76% respectively, while Spanish banks Banco Santander (MADRID:SAN) and BBVA (MADRID:BBVA) surged 1.82% and 2.18%.
Elsewhere, L''Oreal (PARIS:OREP) saw shares jump 1.18% after the company on Wednesday agreed to acquire Los Angeles-based NYX Cosmetics for an undisclosed price to boost its makeup offerings in North America.
In London, FTSE 100 gained 0.72%, still led by Rolls-Royce (LONDON:RR), up 6.04%, after the luxury carmaker said it will buy back £1 billion worth of company stock after agreeing to sell energy assets to Siemens (XETRA:SIEGn).
Mining stocks added to gains, as Glencore Xstrata (LONDON:GLEN) jumped 0.99% and Rio Tinto (LONDON:RIO) rallied 1.24%, while rivals Vedanta Resources (LONDON:VED) and Bhp Billiton (LONDON:BLT) surged 1.52% and 1.89% respectively.
In the financial sector, stocks remained mostly higher. Shares in HSBC Holdings (LONDON:HSBA) advanced 0.76% and the Royal Bank of Scotland (LONDON:RBS) gained 0.71%, while Barclays (LONDON:BARC) climbed 1.20%. Lloyds Banking (LONDON:LLOY) held steady, dipping 0.03%.
In the U.S., equity markets pointed to a steady open. The Dow 30 futures pointed to a 0.05% gain, S&P 500 futures signaled a 0.05% uptick, while the Nasdaq 100 futures indicated a 0.13% rise.
Later in the day, the U.S. was to publish the weekly report on initial jobless claims as well as a report on manufacturing activity in the Philadelphia region.
