I hear alot of talk about the novel that talks about what happens after Halo blows up. Well, I was wondering if these books endings are going to affect the game? If it does, well then will Halo 2 have some sort of primer to bring those who have not read the books up to speed? I hope so because I don't really think our town library has the book and I don't want to have to go to the book store and wait 3 weeks for the book to ordered.
Deleted User4/16/2004 12:53:02 AM PermalinkSPOILER ( somewhat) St. Johnson didn't die because he had this illness and they gave hima treatment that messed up his nervous system and so when the flood tried to take him over they couldn't because they go into the CNS
Deleted User4/16/2004 12:50:20 AM Permalinkthey do effect the game (i at least think they do) because on the video from the febuary issue of the xbox official magazine it show sgt. johnson from Halo 1 IN Halo 2,but didnt he die with Halo? ****SPOILER******* no! in Halo: First Strike in turns out that 1 pelicain escaped Halo with a few marines. one them being sgt. johnson.
Deleted User4/16/2004 12:45:27 AM PermalinkYea the part about the truth and reconciliation is awsome. And it goes into the view of the covenant. Yayap the grunt and Zuka Zumamee the elite. Also the part about taking that base in the begining and returning to Pillar of the Autum. It even went into more depth with understanding all the forerunner and 343 guilty spark business. All the books rocked.
Deleted User4/16/2004 12:44:50 AM PermalinkThe third book sets up Halo2, and if Bungie didn't follow it they have a lot of explaining to do. I would like to see other spartans in play though.
Deleted User4/16/2004 12:41:38 AM PermalinkThe second book was written by some other Not as good wrighting guy. Oh yeah and i convenced my english teacher that the books are "Modern" english lit. And i got to read it for out side reading SWEET
Deleted User4/16/2004 12:37:38 AM Permalinkbut the book still hasd some very intersting differences like the hijacking of the truth and reconcilliation adn the base camp and taking tanks from the pillar and such
Deleted User4/16/2004 12:36:38 AM Permalinkdid you guys like the 2nd book? i didnt. it was too much like the game. i already knew what was going to happen. if halo 2 does follow the book i will be disappointed. im not big on story lines.

Deleted User4/16/2004 12:05:06 AM Permalink[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] baggyshortsman I have read all the books and from what i remember 1st Strike is just about the journey that MC goes on from Halo's destruction to arriving at Earth and finding the Covenant invasion. If you have not read them i implore you to do so as they are fantastic sci-fi books in their own right but the fact that they are set in the Halo Universe elevates them to almost 'Classic' status.[/quote] srry but your wrong Halo:First Strike has to do with the ending of the ring then the capture of a covenant flag ship then the finding of a 600 ship covy fleet at an covy space base then the destruction of that fleet so in the end th MC dose not reach earth .

Deleted User4/16/2004 12:03:14 AM PermalinkOr Bungie could just totally ignore the Books. But that would be -blam!-.
Deleted User4/16/2004 12:01:10 AM Permalinkif you think about it, it would have to affect the game, or they would have to offer some explanation. Because in the last book you learn that there are still more spartens alive, sure not many but some, so if they arn't in the game, then there will probably have to be an explanation somewhere. Personally, i hope that they will be in the game, because that would just be sweet!
Deleted User4/15/2004 11:56:06 PM PermalinkJust order it from amazon.com. It will be there in no time. There only like $6.99
Deleted User4/15/2004 11:51:36 PM PermalinkActually, the 1st book is the prequel to Halo, the 2nd is based on the game and the 3rd is the time frame from the end of Halo to the start of Halo 2
Deleted User4/15/2004 11:48:05 PM Permalinkthe first book sets up halo 1 and the second sets up halo 2 Just read it

No. Can't do raises like that. Backend contracts is a football thing. Can't do it in NBA.
Even Asik and Lin's deals didn't count like that
I don't think people are realistic with how average Davis is when we go to him in iso situations. We did it at the beginning of the Sacto game and itMichaelMcNamara 11-20-2014, 08:19 PM
Our guards still played into the hands of the Portland D. We did not force Portland to guard multiple actions for good shots. They took away Davis andDefensiveMind 11-20-2014, 08:11 PM

I don't agree, but the proof will bear itself out over the course of the season.

"It seems like Lyric Opera can do no wrong this season" - or so says the Chicago Classical Review. Lyric's production of Verdi's epic Il Trovatore is another bonafide hit. Your fall is not complete without seeing this "blazing romantic drama" (Chicago Stage Standard), now at Lyric through November 29.
"It seems like Lyric Opera can do no wrong this season"- or so says the Chicago Classical Review. Lyric's production of Verdi's epic Il Trovatore is another bonafide hit. Your fall is not complete without seeing this "blazing romantic drama" (Chicago Stage Standard), now at Lyric through November 29.
"Lyric's 'Il Trovatore' is grand opera at its finest" - Wynne Delacoma, Chicago Sun-Times
"Lyric Opera delivers the vocal thunder in a dark and combustible 'Trovatore'" - Lawrence A. Johnson, Chicago Classical Review
"an effective amalgam of visual beauty and visceral grit" - Mark Thomas Ketterson, Chicago Tribune
"This is a performance worth seeing, if only for the tremendous performances by each star in the ensemble. Whether this is your first opera or your 60th, the Lyric's Il Trovatore does not disappoint." - Tim Corpus, Chicago Stage Standard
Yonghoon Lee as Manrico
" Tall, slim and handsome, Lee unleashed his agile tenor with youthful ardor." - Wynne Delacoma, Chicago Sun-Times
" the Korean tenor sang with imposing power and lyric sensitivity" - Lawrence A. Johnson, Chicago Classical Review
"he is like a reborn Golden Age tenor having returned to the opera stage." - William Burnett, Opera Warhorses
Quinn Kelsey as Count di Luna
"Kelsey has now fully graduated into the leading Verdi baritone roles he was clearly born to sing." - Mark Thomas Ketterson, Chicago Tribune
"the Ryan Center alum proved an explosive presence as Count di Luna" - Lawrence A. Johnson, Chicago Classical Review
"While singing his heartfelt aria about his love for Leonora, his performance shakes you to the point where, for a moment, you forget he is the bad guy." - Tim Corpus, Chicago Stage Standard
Amber Wagner as Leonora
"It was clear from the first time Lyric put her on a Chicago stage that Wagner has that rarity, a voice that's not just excellent but—in its power and unique timbre—actually thrilling over most of its range. That voice, like a searchlight in a room full of candles, is magnificently on display in Lyric Opera's current production of Giuseppe Verdi's Il Trovatore." - Deanna Isaacs, Chicago Reader
"Amber Wagner spun reams of gorgeous, creamy tone" - Mark Thomas Ketterson, Chicago Tribune
"Amber Wagner brought the crowd to a roaring applause" - Tim Corpus, Chicago Stage Standard
"…she belongs in any list of the world's great Verdian sopranos" - William Burnett, Opera Warhorses
Stephanie Blythe as Azucena
Stephanie Blythe's "big, rich mezzo-soprano combined both ringing clarity and smoky depths as the tormented gypsy poured out her tale of sorrow and vengeance." - Wynne Delacoma, Chicago Sun-Times
"As Azucena, Stephanie Blythe comes through with a delicious mezzo-soprano that reverberates with her tale of woe and desire for revenge." - Betty Mohr, Le Bon Travel and Culture
"No singer can sing everything, with just one caveat: Stephanie Blythe. Her characterization of the gypsy Azucena was appropriately gripping, and I'm certain she could have been heard in the theater at any vocal level she desired from the comfort of her dressing room." - Aaron Hunt, New City
"Conductor Asher Fisch drew a most satisfying account of the score from his players (not to mention those anvils!)." - Mark Thomas Ketterson, Chicago Tribune
"Even by their current elevated standard, Michael Black's chorus sang with tremendous strength and sonorous impact, with the soldier's choruses especially resounding." - Lawrence A. Johsnon, Chicago Classical Review
"Soft-edged, plangent woodwinds underscored the opera's melancholy mood, and pulsing strings were a comforting presence its opera's quiet moments. But when the famous Anvil Chorus erupted, the dry ring of massive hammers on unforgiving metal was both thrilling and chilling." - Wynne Delacoma, Chicago Sun-Times

Lyric's Diamond Anniversary season has started off in style. Critics are raving about the new production of Mozart's Don Giovanni from renowned director Robert Falls of the Goodman Theatre, with Lyric's music director Sir Andrew Davis on the podium. Seductive and stunning, this is the can't-miss event of the fall season. Here are just a few reasons why.
Lyric's Diamond Anniversary season has started off in style. Critics are raving about the new production of Mozart's Don Giovanni from renowned director Robert Falls of the Goodman Theatre, with Lyric's music director Sir Andrew Davis on the podium. Seductive and stunning, this is the can't-miss event of the fall season. Here are just a few reasons why.
"Falls' bold, provocative, hot-blooded new production of 'Don Giovanni' opened Lyric's 60th anniversary season Saturday night at the Civic Opera House, and it had the audience cheering for numerous reasons. … This 'Don Giovanni' is as nourishing to the eye as it is to the ear and mind." - John von Rhein, Chicago Tribune
"Director Robert Falls' fresh, boldly conceived staging infused new life into Mozart's dramma giocoso. " - Lawrence A. Johnson, Chicago Classical Review
"Falls's fast-moving staging has an eye for the opera's comedy and even more for its sexuality." - George Loomis, Financial Times
"Bob Falls has found a way to connect in a fresh way with a work we know and a work we love." - Andrew Patner, WFMT
"The production of Giovanni, which just opened at the Lyric Opera of Chicago, is a glorious triumph for Falls, and a spectacular opening to the Lyric's 60th season. Falls re-imagination of Don Giovanni has it all—passion, sex, heartbreak, murder, jealousy, and revenge. " - Betty Mohr, Le Bon Travel and Culture
"[Lyric's] cast and crew throw themselves into Falls' approach, and what results is an impressive theatrical and musically intensive brew that will have you laughing one minute while gasping with indignation the next." - Scott C. Morgan, Daily Herald
"Moving the story of Don Juan from its seventeenth century origins to circa 1920s Spain proves to be a great decision by Falls. It manages to strip the production of stuffy periodicity while placing it into a time more familiar to the contemporary audience yet distant enough that the story's messy morality seems plausible." - Brian Hieggelke, New City
"This new production proves that modern practice can combine with classic opera to create art of the highest order. This 'Don Giovanni' should not be missed." - M.L. Rantala, Hyde Park Herald
"Run, do not walk, to the Civic Opera House and catch this show." - Lawrence A. Johnson, Chicago Classical Review
"A more appealing cast could hardly have been assembled for Mozart's 'Don Giovanni' than the vocally resplendent, good-looking singers who inhabit the Lyric Opera of Chicago's new production and season opener." - Lawrence B. Johnson, Chicago on the Aisle
"Polish baritone Mariusz Kwiecień is one of the world's best Don Giovannis, a trim, handsome bundle of raging testosterone. " - Wynne Delacoma, Chicago Sun-Times
"The Polish baritone wielded his robust, burnished baritone with such elegant style and tonal beauty, it was easy to understand why all the women of Europe are dropping at his feet." - Lawrence A. Johnson, Chicago Classical Review
"Puerto Rican soprano Ana María Martínez is wonderfully fiery with a dusky sound as the revenge-bent Donna Elvira (she also clearly relishes her 'modern woman' role reconceptualization—even arriving via motorcycle)." - Scott C. Morgan, Daily Herald
"It's a tribute to Kyle Ketelsen that he held his own with Kwiecień's Don, more than is usually the case. The bass-baritone delivered a nimble and witty Catalog Aria and firmly brought out the servant's seething resentment as well as the men's camaraderie with a natural conversational quality to their rapid-fire exchanges." - Lawrence A. Johnson, Chicago Classical Review
"I found [Marina Rebeka's] Donna Anna superb: The sound was creamy, voluminous and steady as a laser, with plenty of fiery temperament to match the dramatic thrust of her singing." - John von Rhein, Chicago Tribune
Andriana Chuchman "brought a charming yet vixenish quality to the good-girl flirt and sang her two arias with notably youthful spirit." - Lawrence A. Johnson, Chicago Classical Review
"...bass-baritone Michael Sumuel deftly captured Masetto's mix of jealous male and vulnerable lover." - Wynne Delacoma, Chicago Sun-Times
Antonio Poli's "ardent, tender arias shaped Don Ottavio, often a bland cipher, into the opera's sole voice of reason." - Wynne Delacoma, Chicago Sun-Times
"Andrea Silvestrelli's Commendatore was towering in height and sonorous of voice" - Lawrence A. Johnson, Chicago Classical Review
"Lyric music director Sir Andrew Davis conducted the Lyric Orchestra with plenty of panache, bringing out the light and dark colors of Mozart's timeless score with buoyant style." - Scott C. Morgan, Daily Herald
"...conductor Andrew Davis' eloquent and expressive musical direction was greatly to be savored, as was a precise and buoyant performance by the Lyric Opera Orchestra. Add to that the exuberant yet disciplined singing by the Lyric Chorus and the last element was in place for a musically rewarding night." - Lawrence B. Johnson, Chicago on the Aisle
"…music director Andrew Davis drew lithe, elegant, stylish playing from his fine orchestra that felt all of a piece with the Don's high-stakes games of seduction." - John von Rhein, Chicago Tribune
"the magnificence of the production should also be credited to Sir Andrew Davis, who at the helm of Lyric's exceptional orchestra, gives his all to Mozart's delicious score; [and] to Michael Black who brings out the best in Lyric's chorus..." - Betty Mohr, Le Bon Travel and Culture
"Walt Spangler's sets and Ana Kuzmanic's costumes persuasively and colourfully suggest urban Seville, including a handsome townhouse for the Commendatore, seen from the street, and a church interior dominated by a statue of Mary for the Sextet scene of Act 2." - George Loomis, Financial Times
"Not only are the sets something to behold, but so too are the ravishing costumes by Ana Kuzmanic that evoke the carefree flamboyance of the Jazz Age." - Betty Mohr, Le Bon Travel and Culture
"The contributions of frequent Falls collaborators Ana Kuzmanic (costume design) and Walt Spangler (sets) deserve equal billing with the performers. The production lives in black and white and gray, but splashes of color – blood, flowers – transcend decoration and become metaphor for the proximity of sensuality and death herein." - Brian Hieggelke,New City
"Between designer Walt Spangler's fetching Spanish sets and Ana Kuzmanic's stylish 1920s costumes (a temporal relocation that Mozart surely would have adored), this 'Don Giovanni' has an integrated look and feel that not only works but also allows for doses of broad, updated humor." - Lawrence B. Johnson, Chicago on the Aisle
"Walt Spangler's scenic design is consistently imaginative, centered on a traditional balconied facade of a Spanish house as unit set with striking splashes of flowers and color." - Lawrence A. Johnson, Chicago Classical Review
"…in the ball scene, [Ana Kuzmanic's] lavishly stylized, brocade and velvet costumes for Donna Elvira, Donna Anna (Marina Rebeka) and Don Ottavio (Antonio Poli) clearly delineated the chasm between the aristocrats and the common folk, an important point for Mozart and his librettist Lorenzo Da Ponte. " - Wynne Delacoma, Chicago Sun-Times
"While everything about the opera soars, the climactic scene (which I won't spoil), in which Giovanni is sent to hell, is jaw-dropping stunning. This is the best Don Giovanni I have ever seen. Opera lovers will be talking about it for a long time." - Betty Mohr, Le Bon Travel and Culture
"There is a juicily melodramatic death scene for the Don whose surprising details I will not spoil by revealing." - John von Rhein, Chicago Tribune

As a special season-opening treat this year, Lyric's magnificent Chorus will be featured in two showcase concerts on September 12 and November 22. Soprano Kimberly McCord is one of the featured singers, and she took the time to give us a bit of her background—and let us in on her own Lyric love story!
As a special season-opening treat this year, Lyric's magnificent Chorus will be featured in two showcase concerts on September 12 at Chicago's Fourth Presbyterian Church (right on Michigan Avenue) and on November 22 at Northwestern University's Millar Chapel in Evanston.
The concert features excerpts from operas featured in Lyric's 2014-15 Diamond Anniversary season, plus some beloved choral favorites with solos from certain Chorus members. Soprano Kimberly McCord is one of the featured singers, and she took the time to give us a bit of her background—and let us in on her own Lyric love story!
When did you know you wanted to be a singer?
I always loved singing and as a child would spend hours singing along to the few but diverse LPs my parents had, such as Jo Stafford, The Sound of Music soundtrack, and The Fifth Dimension. My preschool teacher told my parents to get me piano lessons, which they did. I thought music would be a tough career, but, thanks to my parents' support, I decided to pursue singing as a career my junior year in high school.
(McCord, back row fourth from left, poses with her fellow nuns and Jenn Gambatese, center / Maria, during Lyric's production of The Sound of Music.)
When did you join the Chorus? And what brought you to Lyric or Chicago?
I joined the chorus in 2008. I had been living in Europe for eight years, singing mostly Baroque music, giving recitals, and teaching privately. When I was ready to come back to the States, I thought Chicago would be a friendly, livable, culturally vibrant city. I was right!
What was your background before joining the Chorus?
I earned my Bachelor's of Music from Indiana University and then received a Fulbright grant to study Early Music with Dame Emma Kirkby. I was getting a lot of work singing Baroque music, but I felt that I needed to transition into opera in order to develop my voice and artistry more fully. This process led to a serious vocal crisis but I eventually learned how to integrate my vocal technique and emotional expression more fully. Now singing is even more artistically satisfying.
You're one of the featured singers in Lyric's upcoming Chorus concerts—what about the concerts is most exciting to you?
There is something truly cosmic about sublimating your individuality to express something in sync with 47 other people. It's a thrilling and visceral experience for us and the audience! I'm also excited about performing with Maestro Black conducting and our rehearsal pianist, Jerad Mosbey, accompanying. They prepare us in the crucial daily, behind-the-scenes rehearsal process. The public gets to experience this very intimate working relationship for the first time in these concerts.
Can you talk a little bit about the piece that you're featured on during the concert: "Placido è il, mar" from Mozart's Idomeneo?
On the surface, this piece seems like yet another graceful Mozart composition, but I hear real longing in the big vocal leaps upward and weariness in the short repeated phrases. Connecting with these deeper human emotions while performing technically difficult music is what Mozart demands of us. I hope I am able to do his genius justice!
(Salzburg Festival 2006 production of Idomeneo)
What has been your most memorable experience at Lyric so far?
I met the love of my life at Lyric! Dan Pyne, a software salesman by day, supernumerary occasionally by night, walked into our first staging rehearsal of Lohengrin, and I was thrilled to be placed near him in the opening scene. It gave me the chance to strike up a conversation and we've been going strong ever since. (McCord and Pyne pictured right.)
What is the most outrageous costume you've worn on stage?
Probably the witches in Macbeth. In fact, the costumes were so crazy, with all these dangling pieces, that one chorister accidentally performed the first scene with a bra caught on her costume. No one noticed it until we were back up in the dressing room! We had a good laugh about that one!
(Kimberly McCord and her fellow witches having fun at Lyric, both on stage and off. Top photo: the witches on stage. McCord is third from left; Bottom left: Fire witches Laurie Seely Vassalli, McCord, Nina Heebink (the chorister with the "wardrobe malfunction") and Carla Janzen; Bottom right: The three types of witches, Snake, Earth, Fire. L-R Rachel Crim-Holzhausen, McCord, Desiree Hassler, and Pamela Williams.)
What do you enjoy most about being in the Chorus?
I consider it a great privilege to dedicate my energy to singing. Working diligently on giving fresh expression to classic stories of human experience is a deeply rewarding way to earn a living.
When you're not a Lyric, what are some of your hobbies or other projects?
I enjoy creating things that are more concrete than sound waves! I am a serious cook, I do lots of different crafts, from sewing to embroidery to crochet, and I also love home renovation projects.
What do you love most about living in Chicago?
The diversity of people.
And a few fun questions:
Do you have a go-to karaoke song?
Anything by Heart
("Barracuda" from 1977)
Who is your favorite singer?
Margaret Price
What is your favorite opera?
Don Giovanni
(Royal Opera House 2014 production of Don Giovanni)
And what is your favorite musical?
South Pacific
(Live performance from the 2008 Tony Awards of Lincoln Center Theater's production)

Can't wait for this year's free Stars of Lyric Opera at Millennium Park concert? Here are a few tips and tricks to make this evening of opera enjoyable. Be there early on Saturday, September 6 to hold your place on the lawn before concert time of 7:30pm.
Can't wait for this year's free Stars of Lyric Opera at Millennium Park concert? It's the official kickoff to Lyric's Diamond Anniversary Season and part of Millennium Park's 10th Anniversary Summer Celebration, so this is the perfect night to hear opera under the stars. Here are a few tips and tricks to make this evening memorable.
We recommend coming downtown early on Saturday, September 6 to hold your perfect place on the lawn before concert time of 7:30pm. This year there will be pre-concert entertainment provided by members of the United States Air Force Band of Mid-America between 6:45 and 7:10pm. If you're looking for a seat in the pavilion, it opens up at 6pm—and they go fast!
This year, you'll be able to follow along with all of the English translations at lyricoperalive.org. There will be titles in real time, a link to the entire program to peruse at your leisure, and even a contest to win tickets for next season. And of course you'll need your phone to take that perfect selfie so you can show off your perfect "night at the opera under the stars" pic on social media! Use #LyricStars to connect with fellow opera lovers. No matter how you use it, your mobile is a must-have this year.
Whether you're making everything from scratch or picking up nibbles from Mariano's, Jewel, Whole Foods, Trader Joe's, or even ordering a picnic from Pastoral, it always pays off to come early and bring a wonderful spread for friends.
During last year's concert, there was a wedding proposal on the lawn (evidence below)! An evening of opera under the stars is the ideal setting to show your special someone you care.
Bring your kids! Millennium Park is a great way to get children of all ages to listen to opera with plenty of park to enjoy.
Here's an enthusiastic audience member sporting his best Brünnhilde headgear. You can hit up Lyric's Costume Sale earlier in the day to get some fabulous threads to show off at the evening's concert. September 6 from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. at the Civic Opera House—be there or be square!
This year's program features some of the stars from the upcoming season, including the incredible cast of the season-opening Don Giovanni and singers from the Ryan Opera Center. Lyric's music director Sir Andrew Davis leads the Lyric Opera Orchestra and Chorus in all of their musical splendor.
Looking for a preview? Here are just some of the selections you will hear on September 6.
"Te Deum" Finale from Tosca (Metropolitan Opera, 2010)
Wagner's Tannhäuser Overture (Christian Thielemann conducts the Munich Philharmonic)
"Patria oppressa" from Verdi's Macbeth (Gran Teatre del Liceu, 2005)

Why does your graphs look weird? The lines should be smooth and yours have angles?
You want to check the air speed in Winisd and see if a single port is enough. If not, you need a larger port or go with multiples. What is the final dimension of the enclosure you plan to use?
1 4" port is not enough, you need at least 2. Looking at the XLS1500 manual, the lowest frequency you can select is 50hz which wouldn't work as a highpass filter.
You need a high pass filter close to your tuning freq (25hz?) so you don't damage the driver. A 50hz low pass is fine, what you need is a high pass filter at 25hz.
You need speakon plugs with bare wire.

Nearly three months ago, Steelers running backs coach Kirby Wilson was severely burned in a house fire. After a lengthy hospital stay, which included a medically-induced coma, Wilson visited the team for the first time on Wednesday, according to Ed Bouchette of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette.
Bouchette writes that coach Mike Tomlin expects Wilson to return to his job at some point this year.
It's widely believed that Wilson would have replaced Bruce Arians as the team's offensive coordinator but for the injuries, which happened two days before the team's playoff loss in Denver.
Wilson was burned on 40-to-50 percent of his body. We wish him well as he continues his recovery, and we hope he returns to work as soon as possible.

Marine bacteria of the Roseobacter clade are found to be spread widely throughout the oceans of this planet from the tropics to as far as Antarctica. They live freely in the water, in sediments and as symbiotic partners of algae. Special photosynthetic pigments are responsible for their pink colour. Marine bacteria distinguish themselves through an unusually diverse metabolism, which opens interesting opportunities for biotechnological applications. A reconstruction of their evolutionary development will provide a key for scientists to understand the secret for their ecological success. Researchers at the DSMZ have now discovered that, through plasmids, representatives of the Roseobacter group may exchange such important genetic characteristics as the capability to perform photosynthesis. This type of horizontal gene transfer across the species boundary might make it possible for bacteria of the Roseobacter clade to quickly and effectively conquer new ecological niches. The results of experiments have been published in the magazine Environmental Microbiology and are already available online.
Since 2010, scientists of the Leibniz-Institut DSMZ-Deutsche Sammlung von Mikroorganismen und Zellkulturen GmbH (Leibniz Institute DSMZ German Collection of Microorganisms and Cell Cultures) have been working together with marine microbiologists, ecologists, biochemists, geneticists and information technologists in the Transregio 51 Roseobacter collaborative research centre. The goal of this collaborative research group is to understand the evolutionary, genetic and physiological principles which are responsible for the success of this group of bacteria that have not yet been the object of very extensive research to date. What special genetic features do these bacteria have to enable them to adapt to the most varied of natural habitats?
The DSMZ researchers in the team of Dr. Jörn Petersen, Private Lecturer and Dr. Silke Pradella have now found a clue leading to an important point of reference. The scientists examined the evolution and importance of so-called "plasmids" within the Roseobacter clade which are to be found there in great numbers and varieties.
"Plasmids are usually ring-shaped DNA molecules with a size of up to 1 million base pairs which can duplicate themselves independently of the bacterial chromosome. Natural plasmids encode such useful properties as nitrogen fixation. However, they are also responsible for the development of multiresistant hospital pathogens", the geneticist and evolutionary biologist Dr. Jörn Petersen explains.
Jörn Petersen continues saying that, "it had been assumed for a long time that all of the important genetic information in bacteria was to be found on the chromosome". For representatives of the Roseobacter clade, however, a colleague in the team, Dr. Silke Pradella, had already been able to refute this assumption in an earlier experiment. She proved that the central gene responsible for photosynthesis in Roseobacter litoralis and Sulfitobacter guttiformis is located on plasmids. With their newest work, this working group was even able to show that the complete photosynthesis gene cluster, with more than 40 genes, had been transferred from the chromosome to a plasmid.
What is the reason for this unusual genetic organization? "Our explanation for this is that the Roseobacter clade makes use of its plasmids as a 'mobile container of genetic information', in order to, whenever necessary, rapidly and mutually exchange important metabolic functions even beyond the species boundaries", Dr. Petersen explains. "The access to the mutual gene pool can be understood as type of neighbourly assistance between these marine bacteria. Through the transfer of the photosynthesis genes, the bacteria not only become pink, but also acquire a special advantage for survival through their ability to now attain additional energy from sunlight. A genetic exchange with the use of plasmids as a vector would also conclusively explain why this capability of performing photosynthesis within the Roseobacter group is distributed only sporadically and without any recognizable pattern."
The broad range of methods established at the DSMZ and the new knowledge concerning plasmid biology provide the basis for a new systems biology collaborative project within the framework of the Roseobacter collaborative research centre. The goal of this is to clarify the physiological significance of plasmids in the model organism Phaeobacter gallaeciensis DSM 17395. For this purpose, the plasmid knock-out mutants produced by the working group should be analysed and compared with the Phaeobacter wild-type with the aid of the complete OMICS pipeline (genomes, transcriptomes, proteomes, metabolomes, fluxomes).

Stayed here in August with my family in one of the garden rooms. From the minute we checked in we felt at home and nothing was too much trouble. They didn't even mind us watching the All Ireland football Semi final in the bar! Even though we lost the match, we had a great weekend! Breakfast was lovely, a good... More

Our customers say
Item arrived in 2 days This is a company that does a lot more than sell replacement batteries for UPS, but I found them while searching for replacement batteries and chose to use them because they sell manufacturer genuine parts, not cheapo copies. I quickly found what I wanted, ordered, paid painlessly with PayPal and 2 days later my item arrived. I'm very pleased and have no hesitation recommending.Ricko, United Kingdom

A Sad Fact of Life: It's Actually Smart to Be Mean Online
I'm generally upbeat on Twitter. Many of my posts are enthusiastic blurts about science or research in which I use way too many exclamation points!! But I've noticed something: When I post an acerbic or cranky tweet, it gets recirculated far more widely than do my cheerier notes. People like it fine when I'm genial, but when I make a caustic joke or cutting comment? Social media gold. This is pure anecdata, of course. Still, it made me wonder if there was any psychological machinery at work here. Is there a reason that purse-lipped opinions would outcompete generous ones?Read more
The Woman Who Bravely Mashed Up Cosmopolitan and Cosmos

Amram's Science ... for Her!, out this week, won't teach you much about science, but it will make you laugh out loud. It also delivers a legitimate critique of sexism—with frequent detours into the absurd.Read more

How Building a Black Hole for Interstellar Led to an Amazing Scientific Discovery
Kip Thorne looks into the black hole he helped create and thinks, "Why, of course. That's what it would do." This particular black hole is a simulation of unprecedented accuracy. It appears to spin at nearly the speed of light, dragging bits of the universe along with it. (That's gravity for you; relativity is superweird.) In theory it was once a star, but instead of fading or exploding, it collapsed like a failed soufflé into a tiny point of inescapable singularity. A glowing ring orbiting the spheroidal maelstrom seems to curve over the top and below the bottom simultaneously.Read more

Big Hero 6 Proves It: Pixar's Gurus Have Brought the Magic Back to Disney Animation
John Lasseter is tearing up. His eyes are shining and his lashes are moist. He reaches out a warm hand to cover mine and looks deep into my eyes as he talks. He's feeling things, powerful things, and it's impossible not to feel them too. From any other studio executive, this would come across as insincere, even manipulative, but Lasseter, chief creative officer of Walt Disney Animation Studios and Pixar, is quite possibly the most earnest, emotional, enthusiastic man working in Hollywood. So check your cynical heart at the door of his toy-crammed office. His emotions—and his tears—are real.Read more
Play Around With Our Interactive Disney Cover
For our cover, photographer Art Streiber, who has shot Star Wars aliens, Muppets, and Steven Spielberg for previous WIRED covers, aimed his lens at Lasseter and Catmull. Then our design team partnered with Disney animators to surround Lasseter and Catmull with some of the characters that have appeared in Disney Animation films since they took over. Click on each of the characters, from Big Hero 6 stars Hiro and Baymax, to Princess Tiana, Olaf, and Wreck-it-Ralph, to watch them in action.Read more
