Talks in Egypt start to flesh out cease-fire details

Washington understands well that Israel's restrictions on the Gaza Strip are
related to arms smuggling, and that a total relaxation of the restrictions would
necessitate assurances that arms stop pouring into the enclave, a senior US
official said Monday.The official's comments came as Egyptian mediators
began separate talks Monday with Hamas and Israel to flesh out details of last
Wednesday's cease-fire.The US official said that as a "goodwill gesture"
Israel agreed to extend Palestinian fishing rights from three to six miles off
the Gaza coast.An Egyptian official told Reuters the talks would discuss
Palestinian demands for the opening of more Israeli crossings into Gaza. Senior
Hamas leader Mahmoud Zahar told reporters on Saturday that the group wanted to
see the opening of all four goods crossings with Israel that used to operate
before 2006.The senior US official said that Washington realized that
stopping the smuggling is a "critical element" of the cease-fire, and that the
US will make this a priority in its discussions with the Egyptians and other
international players.The specific mechanisms of how to fight the
smuggling were still to be worked out, he said.According to the
official, US President Barack Obama spoke to Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu
four times during the eight-day Gaza crisis, and with Egyptian President Mohamed
Morsi six times. During part of the crisis Obama was on a state visit to
Thailand, Myanmar and Cambodia, but still remained in close contact with the
parties in the region.The official provided the following chronology of
US involvement:• On November 14, the day Israel killed Hamas military chief
Ahmed Jabari, Obama spoke by phone with Netanyahu and President Shimon Peres in
pre-arranged congratulatory calls for his reelection.He heard from
Netanyahu about the Jabari operation and the possibility of a ground operation
into the Gaza Strip if the missile and rocket attacks did not stop. Obama made
clear that he fully understood Israel's right to self-defense and supported it,
and also understood that the hundreds of rockets over the last few weeks were
the cause of the attack on Jabari.• Obama spoke to Morsi that night and
discussed the role Egypt could play in the deescalation.• Obama spoke
again with Netanyahu and Morsi two days later, as well as with Turkish Prime
Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan.• Obama embarked on his trip to Asia on
November 17, accompanied by Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, who spoke
continuously with her French, Qatari, Turkish and Egyptian counterparts, as well
as with Foreign Minister Avigdor Liberman and UN Secretary-General Ban
Ki-moon.• Obama gave a press conference in Bangkok where he said it was
his preference that the crisis be solved diplomatically, but stressed that
Israel had a right to defend itself, the rockets needed to stop, and Egypt had a
key role to play.• At 4:30 a.m. on the morning of November 19 US
ambassador Daniel Shapiro met with Israeli officials in Tel Aviv to discuss the
content of ceasefire discussions being held between Israel and Egypt. This
convinced the Americans that it was worth sending Clinton to the
region.• On November 19 Obama spoke to Netanyahu, and phoned Morsi
twice.Morsi then called the president for a third conversation.•
Clinton arrived in Israel on the November 20 and went directly to a meeting with
Netanyahu. She also met with Defense Minister Ehud Barak, Liberman and National
Security Adviser Yaakov Amidror to review the cease-fire draft, and discuss what
would be required to bring about a successful conclusion.• Clinton went
to Ramallah the next morning and, at Netanyahu's request, returned to Jerusalem
for another meeting. That meeting gave her a clear idea of how to approach the
discussion with the Egyptians.• As Clinton arrived at Ben-Gurion
Airport, she heard news of the Tel Aviv bus bombing, and called the Prime
Minister's Office to see if there was a change in Israel's approach. She was
told there was not.• Clinton traveled to Cairo where the Egyptians used
their influence on Hamas and the Palestinian factions to agree to the
deal.• Obama then called Netanyahu and recommended Israel accept the
ceasefire. He then called Morsi to thank Egypt for its role.The
official said three elements made bringing about the cease-fire
possible.The first was the unequivocal US support for Israel's right to
self- defense. This was something repeated often by Obama and other US
representatives, and left no doubt in the international community of where the
US stood on the matter.The second element was the close cooperation
between Israel and the US, with Israel seeking Washington's views and help in
bringing the matter to a conclusion when some gaps still remained.And
the third element was the close US – and Israeli – engagement with Egypt. Egypt
was recognized as the "only party that could influence Hamas and get them to
accept certain things," the senior US official said.Cairo, the official
said, "played that role and delivered."Reuters contributed to this

I concentrated primarily on controlling the size and size distribution of indium arsenide and cadmium arsenide QDs. In the nanocrystal community, classical nucleation and growth is often invoked to explain size focusing. However, this model lacks predictive power and contradicts what is known about the chemistry of QD growth. I try to relate my experimental approach and my conclusions to our understanding of the mechanism of particle growth. This approach led me to explore the role of precursor conversion rate in the growth of III-V QDs and to develop a continuous injection synthesis method that I used to make both III-V and cadmium arsenide QDs. Cadmium arsenide (Cd 3As 2 ) is a narrow gap semiconductor that can form QDs with tunable emission between 530nm and 2000nm. I developed a synthetic strategy to precisely control the size of Cd3As 2 QDs while maintaining a narrow size distribution. Continuous precursor injection was used to drive growth and suppress size broadening. The quantum yields of Cd3As 2 QDs produced using this method ranged as high as 80%, and their emission is tunable over a broad range with narrow linewidths. However, they were found to be unstable in ambient conditions. Nevertheless, by processing in inert conditions we were able to make a crude photodetector that demonstrates that Cd3As 2 QDs are sufficiently stable for use in optoelectronic devices. Although growth of a Cd3 P2 shell provided enough added stability to observe emission after ligand exchange into water, these core-shell structures do not seem to be robust enough for biological applications. Indium arsenide (InAs) QDs are more easily stabilized with a core-shell structure. However, the spectral linewidths are broad and existing synthetic techniques produce only small particles with limited spectral tunability. Models predicted that decreasing precursor reactivity would produce larger, more monodisperse particles. Therefore, I chemically modified the group-V precursor to reduce reactivity. I made a library of group-V precursors, and I developed a framework for comparing the QDs that they produced and measuring the kinetics of precursor conversion and particle growth. Although we successfully reduced precursor reactivity, we found that the effect on particle size was minimal and that the least reactive precursors produced particles with inferior size distributions. To find another way to try to improve III-V synthesis, I adapted the continuous injection method developed for making Cd3As 2. Using this strategy, I was able to produce InAs QDs with broadly tunable size and narrow spectral features. However, continuous injection ceases to drive particle growth beyond about 5nm in diameter. We examined why particle growth stops, and proposed a strategy to prolong growth and size focusing. Ultimately, the continuous injection technique allowed us to produce InAs QDs with infrared emission and narrow spectral features that were ideally suited for producing QDs optimized for deep tissue imaging in mice. By adding a shell of CdSe, CdS, or ZnSe, the quantum yield and stability were enhanced. These emitters allowed us to see biodistribution and biological processes occurring inside live mice. Although we found that precursor chemistry did not affect particle growth to the degree we hoped, we were able to produce application ready QDs via a continuous injection procedure. Continuous injection synthesis of QDs is a precise way to tune QD size while maintaining narrow size distributions. We have used this technique to produce QDs with the specifications required for high impact applications. Thesis: Ph.

When processed via mechanical alloying to obtain nanocrystalline structures, their efficiency is increased dramatically, due to enhanced phonon scattering at grain boundaries. However, the excess free energy of these interfaces renders them inherently susceptible to grain growth, therefore there is a need for materials with enhanced thermal stability. Despite this, little is known about the relevant processing science of these materials with respect to mechanical alloying and powder consolidation. This shortcoming is addressed here via systematic study of the processing-structure relationships that govern these processing operations. Firstly, during mechanical alloying, the primary mechanism of mixing between elemental constituents is revealed, as well as the limitations to subsequent grain refinement. The resultant behaviour is unique in the literature on mechanical alloying, due to the unusual thermal and thermodynamic properties of the compound and its elements, rendering deformation-induced heating effects especially prevalent. Next, during sintering operations of the powders, the kinetics of grain growth and porosity evolution were studied. By quantifying these processes, a thermal budget map for the nanocrystalline compound is constructed, to allow predictive powder and guidance of both processing and device operation at elevated temperatures. Finally, based on the improved understanding in processing science and thermal stability of these materials, a new class of thermally stable composites is engineered, with improved thermal stability, and hence enhanced thermoelectric properties.

D. Massachusetts Institute of Technology Gallium nitride (GaN) and indium gallium nitride (InGaN) nanowires promise potential for further improving the electricity-to-light energy conversion efficiencies in light emitting diodes due to strain relaxation, reduced density of structural defects, and easier light extraction. Material quality and effective band engineering of such III-nitride nanowires are crucial for the design and fabrication of their optoelectronic applications such as LEDs, lasers and photodetectors. In this thesis, we first demonstrate effective control over GaN nanowire size, growth rate and structural quality through careful choice of metal seed particles. The differences in morphology, structural defects and optical properties of GaN nanowires grown by metalorganic chemical vapor deposition were studied systematically by electron microscopy and photoluminescence, and related to supersaturation in different seed particles and nanowire nucleation mechanisms. These results also demonstrate that systematic screening of seed materials is essential for synthesizing nanostructures with defect-free structures and other functional heterostructures. Next, challenges for nanoscale mapping of band engineering were successfully addressed through direct spatial correlation of optical properties to a variety of III-nitride heterostructures grown by molecular beam epitaxy, including GaN p-n junction nanorods, InGaN nanodisks, and GaN quantum disks and quantum wires. We demonstrate that effective doping, alloying and quantum confinement can be readily achieved in nanowire heterostructures, by cathodoluminescence in scanning transmission electron microscopy. P-n junction position and carrier diffusion lengths inside a single GaN nanorod were determined with nanometer spatial resolution. InGaN disk compositional uniformities were quantified from their optical emissions, which revealed substantial compositional inhomogeneity in bottom-up synthesized nanostructures. The studies on optical properties of individual GaN quantum structures demonstrated that small differences in the degree of quantum confinements resulted in substantial changes in the optical band gap. More importantly, reduced light emissions are directly correlated to regions containing grain boundaries, dislocations and stacking faults, which were formed as a result of nanorod coalescence and fluctuations in growth environment during nanostructure synthesis. Our findings demonstrate that controlling compositional and structural homogeneity, understanding defect formation mechanism and their effects on materials properties are key challenges to be addressed for developing large scale functional devices based on bottom-up synthesized nanostructured materials.

The system is comprised of a dried, pre-electrolyzed calcium perchlorate salt in acetonitrile solvent electrolyte combined with solid-liquid metal slush counter and reference electrodes utilizing inert molybdenum, borosilicate glass, and polytetrafluoroethylene cell components. The counter and reference electrodes consist of saturated calcium amalgam and a calcium mercury intermetallic phase, denoted as CaHglI-Ca(Hg) sal , with a nominal calcium concentration of 5 mole percent. Reference electrodes were found to be stable for many weeks with no drift and high precision (+/- 2 mV), and lie at a potential value of approximately -2.043 V versus the standard hydrogen electrode or 0.825 V versus the Ca/Ca2 couple. Several transition metal oxide and other chalcogen-based structures were explored as calcium cathode materials. Vanadium oxide (V2O5), iron sulfide (FeS2) and molybdenum selendide (Mo3Se4) could be reversibly cycled. The behavior of Mo3Se4 was studied in greater detail, and its electrochemical performance suggested sluggish calcium transport resulted in rate limited capacity. Microscale (-2.5 pm particle diameter) powders demonstrated a reversible capacity less than 3 percent of theoretical for the host compound. Nanoscaling, higher temperature cycling, and chemo-structural alteration of Mo3Se4 increased capacity utilization fourfold. Calcium content of electroactive samples was confirmed by energy dispersive x-ray spectroscopy. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and x-ray diffractometry studies provided supporting evidence of calcium intercalation into the Mo3Se4 Chevrel phase structure. Furthermore, preliminary results are presented involving beryllium and aluminum electrochemistry in the Mo3Se4 Chevrel phase. Thesis: Ph.

GOP pushing pay rule changeBy SAM HANANEL
THE Associated Press | May 07,2013WASHINGTON It seems like a simple proposition: give employees who work more than 40 hours a week the option of taking paid time off instead of overtime pay.
The choice already exists in the public sector. Federal and state workers can save earned time off and use it weeks or even months later to attend a parent-teacher conference, care for an elderly parent or deal with home repairs.
Republicans in Congress are pushing legislation that would extend that option to the private sector. They say that would bring more flexibility to the workplace and help workers better balance family and career.
The push is part of a broader Republican agenda undertaken by House Majority Leader Eric Cantor, R-Va., to expand the partys political appeal to working families. The House is expected to vote on the measure this week, but the Democratic-controlled Senate isnt likely to take it up.
For some people, time is more valuable than the cash that would be accrued in overtime, said Rep. Martha Roby, R-Ala., the bills chief sponsor. Why should public-sector employees be given a benefit and the private sector be left out?
But the idea Republicans promote as pro-worker is vigorously opposed by worker advocacy groups, labor unions and most Democrats.
These opponents claim its really a backdoor way for businesses to skimp on overtime pay.
Judith Lichtman, senior adviser to the National Partnership for Women and Families, contends the measure would open the door for employers to pressure workers into taking compensatory time off instead of overtime pay.
The program was created in the public sector in 1985 to save federal, state and local governments money, not to give workers greater flexibility, Lichtman said. Many workers in federal and state government are unionized or have civil service protections that give them more leverage in dealing with supervisors, she added. Those safeguards dont always exist in the private sector, where only about 6.6 percent of employees are union members.
Phil Jones, 29, an emergency medical technician in Santa Clara, Calif., said hes wary of how the measure would be enforced.
Any time theres a law that will keep extra money in an employers bank account, they will try to push employees to make that choice, said Jones, who regularly earns overtime pay. I know how we get taken advantage of and I think this bill will just let employers take even more advantage of us.
But at a hearing on the bill last month, Karen DeLoach, a bookkeeper at a Montgomery, Ala., accounting firm, said she liked the idea of swapping overtime pay for comp time so she could travel with her church on its annual mission trip to Nicaragua.
I would greatly appreciate the option at work to choose between being compensated in dollars or days, she said.
The GOP plan is an effort to change the Fair Labor Standards Act of 1938, which requires covered employees to receive time-and-a-half pay for every hour over 40 within a work week. The proposal would allow workers to bank up to 160 hours, or four weeks, of comp time per year that could be used to take time off for any reason.
The bill would let an employee decide to cash out comp time at any time, and forbids employers from coercing workers to take comp time instead of cash.
Republicans and business groups have tried to pass the plan in some form since the 1990s.
Democrats say the bill provides no guarantee that workers would be able to take the time off when they want. The bill gives employers discretion over whether to grant a specific request to use comp time. Opponents also complain that banking leave time essentially gives employers an interest-free loan from workers.MORE IN National / World BusinessDETROIT A dispute between U.S. safety regulators and air bag maker Takata Corp.

Book Description:
"When Gould was paired with the right composer…he could make you wonder if he was altogether human. And reading Hafner on Gould is sometimes as much fun as listening to him play. And that's saying a lot."—Newsweek Hugely talented and famously eccentric, pianist Glenn Gould fought a running battle with a long list of lessthan- perfect pianos. A Romance on Three Legs is the story of a love that changed Gould's life: his partnership with the Steinway CD 318, a piano whose peculiar action and temperament ushered Gould closer than ever to interpretive perfection. Katie Hafner weaves the compelling tale of Gould, his favorite piano, and the men who worked on it, revealing new details and nuances in the work and mind of one of the twentieth century's greatest artists.

"But why aren't you hysterical?"
I wonder if this has always been true: When things start to go awry, we get frustrated at leaders (or employees or co-workers) who seem to be calmly considering the options and doing their best work instead of hyperventilating.
The amount of hysteria one demonstrates isn't at all related to how much work is being done (or how much we care).

Web Letter
The oil pipeline certainly is at issue, for both the US and Russia, but it's not as simple as that. Georgian overtures to the West and NATO certainly are at issue, but it's not as simple as that, either. There have been ethnic and religious conflicts in the outer reaches of the former Russian Empire and its near neighbors going back hundreds of years. The autocratic monarchy and then the Soviet system put an artificial damper on the problems, which is a very different thing than solving them. Even the current conflicts over South Ossetia and Abkhazia date back to the disintegration of the Soviet Union, not just the past few months.
The official borders in this part of the world have been drawn in a variety of places at different points in history. So it's not as simple as letting each group have its own piece of land, either. Each region has a small, but significant, ethnic or religious minority more commonly associated with some other nearby region. Such people understandably fear abuse if every group gets its own country... but they are just as understandably loath to pick up and leave an area where their family is now established.
There are no nice, neat black hats and white hats in this picture.

... I could smell the makings of many dishes as I walked along. But customs and agricultural bio security is important, but those spices were incredible and cheap too. After our adventures of a couple of hours the 44deg heat was starting to take its toll. We headed over to Dubai creek and were thinking about a boat ride. We got an offer too good to pass up, a proper junk boat for only 120AED which was a whole boat for the two of us... And our commentary was in ...

... on the ground in the UAE. Once moored up alongside or what ever one does in the aviation world with a plane, it was off and into the terminal building where we queued for immigration, but it was worth it as I got a stamp in my passport. A nail bitting spell was spent waiting for the checked in luggage which didn't seem to ever arrive, although I'm pleased to say it did eventually turn up. Through the nothing to declare gate and off to meet our chauffeur... Until next ...

After a walk around the hotel gardens we catch a taxi uptown to the Dubai Mall & Burj Khalif which is one bloody tall building, it is so tall it hardly looks real but is very impressive. Like everything in Dubai the Mall is huge and filled with exotic shops, restaurants & the usual top end places of Gucci, Prada, Versace etc. Most stores have sales on so I scored a couple of shirts from ...

... walked around at the bits that interested me, you'll see I got creative taking photos of the old Dhow trading ships. I did want to get off at the Spice Souks as well but fell asleep and missed that stop. They are in the old Deira city, over the other side of Dubai creek from the modern part. I woke up just in time to jump off and roam around experiencing scenes of *************e the same way through the centuries.

**E46 DYI: How to make Cigarette Charger turn ON/OFF with ACC**
Hi All,
I have got several useful tips and tricks from this forum. But for the Cigarette Charger always on issue I was not able to find any got fix. The one's I found were very dangerous hack-job driving both the cigarette charger and radio off of the 5Amp fuse. I set out to find a better solution without spending too much. Below is the solution I came up with. This solution maintains the two separate circuits for Radio and charger with their respective fuses.
Diclamer: I do not take any responsibility if you screw up and anything on your car is damaged. This tutorial merely documents the steps I followed to get the fix working on my 2005 E46. If your car is any other year I strongly recommend verifying the fuse board layout is similar to 2005 E46 before you proceed.
Things you will need.
1. Add a Circuit ATC Fuse-TAP
2. A donor fuse to to extract a spade connector
3. Digital Multimeter
1. Remove the 5Amp fuse from position 7. Start the car and verify the Radio does not turn ON. Keep the Fuse Aside. Refer to the Fuse placement chart under the fuse board if the Radio turns on after you start the car.
2. Now remove the 20Amp fuse from position 47. Verify the cigarette charger does not work anymore. Keep this aside.
Refer to the Fuse placement chart under the fuse board if the cigarette charger still works.
3. Now place the 5Amp fuse in the bottom row of the fuse tap and the 20Amp fuse on the top row of the fuse tap. See pic below.
4. Now break the donor fuse to yield a connector as shown below
5. Trim the non spade end of the connector so that it can be inserted on the wire end of the fuse tap.Make sure it is set in firmly.
6. Using a set of pliers crimp the wire end to make the spade connector set in place. Pull the spade connector with some force and make sure the spade connector does not fall out or move too much.
7. Now place the fuse tap in position 7 and the wire with spade connector on the top end on position 47. *********Make sure you dont plug it in the lower end as that is always +12V ********* Doing so might damage the switching circuit when you start the car*******
8. Now start your car or put the key in ACC position and verify the Radio and the Charger turn ON. Turn your car off and the charger should turn of as well.
9. Now carefully tuck the wire in a good position and lock the fuse board back in place. Verify again by starting your car that it works and nothing was unplugged when you put the fuse board back in place.
You should be all set

Asus to make grab for Toshiba's notebook biz?
Asus may seek to acquire Toshiba's notebook business in order to become the world's third-largest laptop manufacturer, the Taiwanese firm has said. Outspoken company chief Johnny Shih said Toshiba's notebook business has been identified as one of Asus' possible targets, according to a report by Chinese-language website …
Oh no!
If this goes ahead we'll lose the one laptop manufacturer that managed to combine reasonable prices with reliability.
Oh well...
...that'll put an end to me buying any more Toshiba laptops if it happens. Personally I've had seven or eight Tosh laptops over the years and advised many other friends on Tosh lappies. They'll be much missed in my household. Oh well ... now to hunt the long standing Thinkpad jungle for the odd gems that exist in there somewhere.
Say it ain't so! I was only telling hubby this morning how I lurve me my Tosh lappies. They're not as fugly as Lenovo, don't run hot like HP/Compaqs, don't have funky BIOSs like the Dells, aren't as flaky as MSIs, and are not as pretentious (or unrealistically expensive) as Sonys. Tosh lappies look nice, are nicely specced and Just. Work. What more does any serious user need?
Asus gunning for the Toshiba notebook business? Say it ain't so!
Echoes Lenovo
This reminds me of Lenovo, man those laptops were shit. I must've seen half of them come back. If this affects my brand new Toshiba's warranty, I won't be a happy camper.

ROME--Gucci, the Italian leather-goods and fashion giant, said Friday it has made an "irrevocable" offer of 13 million euros ($16.7 million) to save Richard Ginori, a historic tableware company, from bankruptcy.
Gucci, a unit of France's PPR SA (PP.FR), said it had a long-term plan to safeguard the storied brand, which is based in Tuscany where Gucci and most of Italy's upscale leather-goods activities are.
Gucci said its offer would also save the jobs of Richard Ginori's 230 workers, who otherwise face dismissal as the company filed for bankruptcy earlier this year.

Focus on All Cross Country
Cross country is an trial that typically occurs on the second day of a three-day event. Considered by spectators and participants to be both exciting and dangerous, the cross country course is made up of solidly built obstacles that the horse and rider must maneuver--the team with the fastest time wins.

-Andre Johnson reported to camp and was the main attraction when he arrived to camp after his brief absence. If there is anything that can be taken away
from Johnson at camp, it is the fact that he is in the best shape he has been in for a long time. He looks leaner but still built the same with a 6-3 and
230 lbs. frame.
Johnson was worked with closely with Bill O'Brien in various portions of practice playing catchup on the new offense. Johnson has taken a liking to new Texans quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick and it was evident with the amount of talk between the two during practice. Fitzpatrick and Johnson have plenty of work to do to get to know each other more on the field, but they made some solid connections today through the air with having no previous work prior to today.
-The return of cornerback Johnathan Joseph was a good sight to see after sitting out all of the offseason workouts recovering from a foot procedure after the end of the 2013 season. Joseph put in some solid work today and showed no issues with his foot.
-Jadeveon Clowney returned to camp after a hernia surgery during OTAs, but he is limited on exactly what he can do during practice. He is moving well on the field but the Texans are going to be careful not to push him too quick before the season. Also, fellow rookie Jeoffrey Pagan returned to the field for the first time and he looked solid in his first full practice with the team. Pagan is an imposing figure at 6-3 and 310 lbs. and he even intercepted a tipped pass where he showed some athleticism to get down field to try and score a touchdown.
-Brooks Reed took all of his work today from the outside linebacker position and he looked right at home. Reed has been forced to get work there with Ricky Sapp (Non-Football Injury list) and Jadeveon Clowney (limited) being slowed with injury issues. It will be interesting to see what happens to Reed when everyone returns to full strength but it looks like outside linebacker for the time being.
-Ez Nwachukwu showed today why he can be dangerous as a player with the football in his hands. The sheer speed he can show on the field can cause issues and he was able to make some nice connections with Case Keenum. One play he worked all the way across the field and Keenum hit him in stride and he turned up with little issue for a nice gain. It was a good first day for the wide receiver.
-Wide Receiver Mike Thomas put in some work today as the slot wide receiver and he still looks like a viable option for Fitzpatrick. He has a good understanding on how to read defenses and settle into voids and it showed today. He adds another viable option to the offense and could be one to watch closer as training camp progresses.
-Case Keenum looked better today when he was not having passes deflected at the line of scrimmage. He made some nice throws outside the numbers and has taken to what O'Brien wants the quarterbacks to be. He still has the problem of throwing and seeing through the passing lanes in the pocket, but when he had clear lanes to throw he made some pinpoint throws. Keenum has taken a positive step as a player from last season.
-J.J. Watt has only gotten better as an athlete and his first step off of the line of scrimmage is impressive. Watt gave Xavier Su'a-Filo a taste of NFL life when the two were lined up against each other. His speed, quickness and strength were too much for Su'a-Filo to handle and it was Watt straight to the quarterback.
-If Alfred Blue can put it together quick he has what it takes to be an adequate NFL running back for the Texans. He is very fluid running and catching the ball, and how he is able to line up split outside to become a receiver is a quiet part of his game. Blue's value is only climbing and he has shown that he has the physical tools to push Andre Brown for the backup running back spot.
-The Texas heat was nothing nice today as it sent 6 players to get extra IVs indoors during practice. All of the players that left the field due to heat
issues returned before practice was finished.
Solid First Days
A.J. Bouye had a strong opening day with two pass breakups and there cannot be enough said about the instincts he has on the field. He has an internal
clock that cannot be coached and he has shown for two years straight that he has a knack for finding the football.
Ryan Fitzpatrick has taken to what O'Brien wants from his quarterbacks, a player that makes quick decisions when he gets to the top of his drop in the
pocket. He hit his receivers early and often today coming out of breaks and he did it efficiently. It was the best day for Fitzpatrick as the Texans
quarterback since arriving to the team.
DeAndre Hopkins looks like he is practicing with a purpose and there was not much he did not catch that was thrown his direction. He made multiple catches
in traffic today and some against good coverage from Brandon Harris. The biggest part of his game is his overall strength to shield defenders from running
though him to get to the football. It was a more confident Hopkins today on the field for the Texans.
Day One Struggles
Call it nerves but in the small portions of Tom Savage today he struggled to make any positive strides. Throwing blind and an interception, it seemed
things on the field were moving too fast for the rookie. His hesitations were evident and it looks like he has regressed some from the work he put in
during offseason practices. Day two will be important for Savage to see how he responds to his rough day one.
Tyson Clabo is going to have to work the rust off from little football drills done with a team, and today it showed. Clabo was slow to move into his pass
sets and was easily beaten by Brooks Reed around the corner in pass rush situations. It shows that Clabo has plenty of work to do, but he is the one that
will have to chase down Derek Newton if he wants to be considered to start this season.
Rookie Inside Linebacker Max Bullough will have to improve his coverage skills to make an impression on the coaches. He struggled today on back to back
plays where receivers he was covering made plays in front of him and they ran off from him with no issues. Bullough looks like a throw back inside
linebacker who is down hill in between the tackles, where his struggles come in open space in coverage and open field situations.

Filmmaker comes home to premiere flick at SFF
Date: March 23, 2011
by: Heidi Kurpiela | A&E Editor
If you've only got five minutes to spare this film-festival season, check out Shaun Greenspan's "The Break Up."
It's adorable. Light. Quirky. It's got a catchy three-song soundtrack and a feel-good ending. It's about a 9-year-old boy who breaks up with his girlfriend at a pizza parlor.
And, yes, it's all of four minutes and 55 seconds long.
If it's possible for a filmmaker to showcase his cinematic chops in such a brief window of time, Greenspan manages to do it with this short film, which will premiere next month at the Sarasota Film Festival.
The 32-year-old filmmaker, who moved with his family in 1992 to Sarasota, based the movie on his own childhood dating experience.
Like the movie's charming protagonist, Greenspan took his first date to a pizza shop in the small Connecticut town he lived in until he was 13 years old.
He was in third grade. The girl's name was Cori. He begged his dad — Sarasota dentist Dr. Richard Greenspan — to take him. His father agreed, but on one condition: He would have to chaperone.
"I barely remember it," Greenspan says. "But I do know halfway through I asked my father to cut my pizza. When we drove home that night he told me I should probably wait to go out with girls until I can cut my own food."
It seems Greenspan was always in a hurry to grow up.
He dropped out of Riverview High School his senior year and at the urging of his parents got his GED in 1997.
Shortly thereafter, he moved to Boston, where he admits he partied too hard and spent way too much money.
"I rebelled probably because I had things so nice," Greenspan says. "I realize it now, that I was just stubborn. My father used to say, 'If you put half as much energy into staying on track as you do getting off track, there's nothing you won't accomplish.'"
Greenspan took those words to heart.
He moved back into his parents' quiet bayfront home, enrolled in Manatee Community College and at 22 transferred to Columbia College Hollywood, a Los Angeles-based film school.
"I didn't know what I wanted to do with my life until I took my first film class at MCC," Greenspan says. "I realized I liked connecting with people. I like telling good stories, and I like working hands-on on an artistic project. It's something that'll never get old that I can do for the rest of my life."
Greenspan received his film degree in 2003. Since then he's worked as a production assistant on "Six Feet Under," "Nip/Tuck," "Mad Men," "True Blood," "Big Love" and the films, "Little Miss Sunshine and "Where the Wild Things Are."
In 2005, he co-founded Triforce Pictures with fellow film school graduate Edward James.
The company, which specializes in producing cost-effective content for films, music video and commercials, has netted an impressive client list, including rapper Snoop Dogg.
After 10 years away from home, Greenspan says it only made sense to premiere "The Break Up" in Sarasota, while surrounded by family and friends.
"It's a well-received film fest," he says. "And I really wanted to make my parents proud."
Shaun Greenspan's "The Break Up" will screen at noon Friday, April 15 and at 7 pm. Sunday, April 17, at Regal Cinemas Hollywood 20, in downtown Sarasota. The Sarasota Film Festival runs April 7 to April 17. For more information on "The Break Up," visit www.triforcepictures.com. For tickets to the festival, call 366-6200 or visit www.sarasotafilm-festival.com.

My Washington DC Segway Tour
As a DC local, it is not an uncommon site to see Segway tours going around the city – my office is two blocks from the National Mall and I jog around the monuments several times a week. After years of seeing these tours and snickering at them (all the while secretly jealous), my friend and I decided to bite the bullet and be tourists in our own city.

New York City by Land, Sea and Sky
Where do you go to get the best views of New York? Me, I've always spent most of my time on the Manhattan sidewalks, gazing upwards with my mouth open. I did wind up on the receiving end of some "Watch where you're going!" comments, and I did get a sore neck, but I didn't really grasp the scale of the city. So this time I resolved to do something a bit different. I would take in as many different views as possible and finally, if possible, come home with a real sense of perspective.

New Orleans Jazz Fest: An Insider's Guide
I'm a New Orleans native, and informing people of that fact, I can see that it carries with it a funny sort of weight. People think things about my city, and if they've been there most everyone will, to my face at least, tell me how much they love it. "Oh, so much culture," they'll say. Or, "Oh, simply the best time. Such nice people. Great food, too." To which I smile and nod and say yes, it is all those things. I'm glad that you had a good time.

Exploring Mexico's Pyramids of Teotihuacan
If you can't get your tongue around pronouncing Teotihuacán (tee-oh-tee-wah-KAHN) while in Mexico City, then just say you want to visit "the pyramids." Most of the other pyramids in this area are gone. Either they were dismantled (the stones used to build Spanish colonial churches) or they were used as a base for other colonial buildings built on top – religious or administrative.

Dearly Departed in Los Angeles
Why is the idea of a Dearly Departed tour in Los Angeles so popular? Partly it's that fantastic mug shot of Hugh Grant. And partly it's the concept of the tour itself: a 2-1/2 hour romp across Hollywood in a 'Tomb Buggy' tracking down gruesome, ghastly and notorious episodes in Tinsel Town history.

Mexico City: Top Boutique Hotels
Where to sleep in Mexico City? For a long time Mexico City was dominated by big business hotels and international chains.

So if money is no obstacle for you, here are my picks for the best boutique hotel options in the Distrito Federal, or "DF" (pronounced day-effay) as it's better known.
