RedEnvelope has boyfriend gift ideas for every kind of man, including those hard-to-shop-for types. Surprise him on the next holiday or special occasion with creative gifts for boyfriend in a variety of guy-friendly themes like barware, barbeque, and gadgets . Classic presents like men's accessories and licensed sports memorabilia are also available. He will appreciate you all the more once he catches a glimpse of these fun gifts! Also be sure to check out our line of unique and personalized anniversary gifts for boyfriends and birthday gifts for boyfriends.
The easiest way to please your boyfriend might surprise you…just order beer gifts online. Few guys can resist the appeal of customized beer mugs, pitchers, and home brewing kits. Bestsellers like our leather beer holster are also instant favorites; every guy at the barbeque or game will be jealous. Bottle openers and personalized coasters are two popular picks for affordable boyfriend gifts. Men that don't drink beer will appreciate our other bar gifts: wine and bar accessories. Aspiring sommeliers and cocktail connoisseurs can stock their man cave or home wet bar with all of the essential equipment, plus some fun new choices. Wine drinkers can use an instant aging tool or a Vinturi aerator to achieve the perfect glass of vino; stainless steel wine stoppers and wine cork craft kits are also available. If he prefers hard liquor, our whiskey lover's set of glasses and soapstone "ice cubes" will win his favor. Cubist cocktail glasses and coasters, plus the cubist chips & dip set or cubist appetizer set, offer libations for him and three guests. They're perfect for double date nights at home!
Another surefire boyfriend gift involves fire…we're speaking of grilling gifts, of course. Concede to his total domination of the barbeque, and proclaim him the undisputed grill master with our fun BBQ gifts. A wireless talking BBQ + oven thermometer, or an infrared laser BBQ thermometer will truly delight him. Both will make him feel like a kid again, playing with high-tech toys. Other gifts for boyfriend make the pool party or backyard barbeque more fun for everyone. A solar powered sound system, for instance, keeps the tunes going while it charges his iPod. Our Gorillatorch flexible tripod flashlights will come in handy when the sun sets, helping him to actually see the food he's grilling.
If gadget gifts seem more appropriate, we have plenty to choose from. Browse desktop games and gadgets, like the Buckyballs magnetic desk toy sets. Watch him try to resist the pull of this ingenious toy for grownups – it's positively magnetic! Outfit his man cave, home office, or nightstand with fun gadgets like an amp style retro speaker for his iPod, a sanctuary charging station for all of his gadgets, or a deluxe coin sorter valet for his spare change. Those hoping for boyfriend gift ideas that will please Mr. Fix-Its will enjoy the Magwear magnetic wristband, which holds nails, bolts, screws, and nuts within reach. If you've ever seen him climb a ladder with a hammer in one hand, a screwdriver in the other, and a mouth full of nails, this gift is a must-have. One of our Father's Day gifts pairs the magnetic wristband with the tripod flashlight – we just call the set "gadget dad".
Some presents have earned the title of classic boyfriend gifts, because they're always appropriate, for any occasion. These include cufflinks for men, sports memorabilia, sunglasses for men, and sexy lingerie (for you to wear, but as a gift for him). We don't currently offer sporty lingerie, but we do have innovative sports cufflinks that represent two classic gifts at once. Find cufflinks crafted from game-used balls and salvaged seats from his favorite stadiums; we also have men's necklaces and executive pens made in the same way. MLB wallets with inner billfolds made from game-worn uniforms are another easy way to wow your baseball-loving boyfriend. If none of these themes suit your guy, there's no need to worry. We have tons of other boyfriend gift ideas, and we're confident that you will find plenty of choices he will love.

Is your Chromebook a little thicker than most? Then this is the charging cart for you. With bays a whopping 1.75" wide, it safely charges, stores, and transports 36 larger devices like the Lenovo ThinkPad X131e Chromebook.
Designed to meet the specific requirements of this larger Chromebook, our latest cart has roomy bays that are 1.75"w x 10.25"w x 12.5"d. The cart holds 36 devices in vertical orientation to save space, resulting in a modest footprint.
The cart's power management system was tested and proven for the Lenovo Chromebook. The cart is listed to UL standard 60950, so you know it's safe.
A two-point locking system and reinforced steel doors protect your Chromebooks. Keyed locks front and back secure each area separately.
The locking IT area in back protects the power adapters and organizes all your cords. Place power adapters and cord bundles on shelves and in the storage cubby behind the power column, then plug in each cord to the outlet on the column.
The combination of easy-grip handles and large 5" casters make the cart easy to maneuver between buildings and down hallways. And in the event of a mishap, cushioned bumpers protect hallways and doors.

Kimi Raikkonen has played down James Allison's departure, saying only time will tell if it has an effect on the Lotus team.
Allison, who joined Lotus in 2009, left the team earlier this week and is believed to be Ferrari-bound.
The position of technical director wasn't vacant for long as Lotus have already announced that Nick Chester has replaced the Brit.
Asked whether he was worried that Allison's departure would hurt Lotus, Raikkonen said: "Not really.
"We don't know if it's going to change anything, or what it's going to change.
"Obviously there are people who will replace him already. We'll see if it has any effect on what the future brings.
"I don't really have any idea."
He added: . "I don't know the reasons behind it, it's not my thing to comment; you'll have to ask himself. I don't know what the reasons were.
"[I got to know him] a little bit obviously because we've been working in the same team but day-by-day we don't have much to do really and in he doesn't come to all the races.
"This is normal; I work with the engineers and obviously he hears all the things that we do. We will see in the future what happens."
The Finn was also questioned about his plans for the future after team owner Gerard Lopez came out saying he expects Raikkonen will remain at Lotus next season.
The 33-year-old, though, says he has yet to decide.
"My decision will be purely on what I think is the best overall for me, and we'll see what happens in the future," he said.
"I have no idea what will happen and right now I don't put much thought into it because we only have done four races.
"There's a long season to go and there's a long time until next year. So now we put effort for this race and this season."

Pins, Playlists and Putting Ourselves in a Wanderlust Mood
We're officially halfway through our Wanderlust summer, and gearing up for festival #3 at Squaw Valley this weekend. For those if you just tuning in, Timberland is the official greening partner for Wanderlust 2012, and we're helping to make this one-of-a-kind festival a little greener and less impactful on the environment.
There's nothing quite like the actual Wanderlust experience — world-class yoga, locally-grown food, inspiring speakers and breathtaking outdoor settings — but we don't all have the luxury of time or travel budgets to be Wanderlust groupies all summer long (lovely as that sounds). Now there's a cure for the Wanderlust woes: if you're passionate about Pinterest, go check out Timberland's Pinterest page where you'll find our Wanderlust board. The photos of our Stratton Mountain hike are guaranteed to slow your frantic mind. And if music is more your thing, we've put together a Wanderlust-inspired playlist on Spotify (you've got to be a registered Spotify user to listen). Think Jack Johnson, Ben Harper, Ani Difranco … that kind of soundtrack will get you through the day, no?
Pins and playlists — It's kind of like a staycation for your mind and spirit. Enjoy. And if you want to learn more about our involvement with the wonderful world of Wanderlust, check out our festivals page.

- JoJo can hardly wait for Christmas Review by Suv

Unpacked my order of Kong squeaker balls and my dog went crazy. How she knew what it was without hearing it I don't know. A sure thing for a very reasonable price. And fast shipping! (Posted on 12/5/13)
- Kon Air Squeakers are a dog's best friend! Review by Heyruh
Your Rating Product KONG Air Dog Squeaker Ball Medium 36pk (12 x 3pk)
My dog loves to catch balls mid air, and she loves squeaky toys. Regular tennis balls are too hard on her mouth when she goes flying to catch an air ball. These balls are softer and easier on her mouth, and they squeak! We play for hours with them. If I want her to come in the house (she is stubborn sometimes), all I have to do is squeak one and she comes running she loves them so much. My neighbors dog was a little older and stopped showing interest in toys altogether until I brought one of these over. Now she's in touch with her inner puppy again. I highly recommend them! (Posted on 5/26/13)
- NICE BUT ... Review by Sparky
Your Rating
The Kong Air Dogs are very nice. My aged mini schnauzaer will play with nothing else. I usually buy them at the store with no odor problems. This time there was a very strong rubber odor. I've washed them with the hopes the odor will dissipate. (Posted on 2/21/13)
- Fun toy! Review by JA
Your Rating Product Kong Air Dog Squeaker Ball Medium 3 pk
My dog goes crazy for balls and especially squeaky ones. These are the only kind that she doesn't chew up and destroy. (Posted on 1/31/13)
- surprisinglyy durable Review by geezey
Your Rating Product Kong Air Dog Squeaker Ball Medium 3 pk
these hold up surprisingly well - I have a high energy border collie-aussie mix who loves to race around chewing these and squeaking the heck out of the them. The squeaker lasts far longer than far more expensive and durable-looking rubber toys. Not impervious to strong jaws (:)) but they really do take a "biting". highly recommended esp at this price.

Trigger X Aggression Flappin Craw - $3.48 to $3.89
Incredible life-like action is the trademark of the Trigger X Aggression Flappin' Craw. Its claws rise in a defensive position when the bait's at rest, and they also generate a mild kicking action on the retrieve thanks to Flappin' Craw's precise bio-salt infused formulation. The Flappin' Craw also has just enough heft to match well with a variety of jig sizes, and like all Trigger X Aggression baits, it's loaded with UltraBite Aggression Pheromones. This custom blend of aggression and fear pheromones mimics the natural predator versus prey response - triggering a predator's feeding instinct. Available in several colors, each Trigger X Aggression Flappin Craw also features a phthalate-free soft plastic composition that eliminates the "plastic" smell found in other soft baits - putting an end to scent contamination.
Comments: An great bait to put on as a jig trailer or a football jig trailer. Produces tons of bass that bite this bait every time. Only issue is the durability of the bait. Typically the claws do come off after your first or second fish, but this happens with lots off other baits to. All in all its a great bait that also works great as a trailer for a jig.
From: Jake: USA 8/23/14
Comments: These things have no flapping action whatsoever at slow or fast speeds, they are a good football jig trailer in the winter when you don't want a whole lot of action.
From: Sam: USA 3/2/14
Comments: The claws do not flap.. Never cauhght a thing.. amd there so greasy never get the grease off my fingers
From: Jeff: GA
Comments: I caught a 44 lb limit on these things.. best bait even
From: Mike: Erie, PA
Comments: I love this bait first time with it a bass smashed it can't wait to fish with it more!
From: Brendan: Hanoverton, OH
Comments: For some reason the Bass can't stop biting this craw. I fish them on Jigs as a trailer and TX rigged, both way produce Bass for me. This is my goto craw when others has failed.
From: Fish Guru: CMH, Ohio

P-51D Mustang "Old Crow"
Sale Price: $169.95
To Order by Phone Call 1-800-933-6249
In the same year, 1944, Captain Clarence Anderson returned to the 375th Fighter Group for a second combat tour. He was assigned a new P-51D Old Crow in the dark green mask. Captain Bud was on a mission when the first drop of snow in Germany fell. Thus he noted a mixed flight of dark green and silver aluminum Mustangs below him. After his mission, he told his ground crew that the one painted the dark green stood out against the snow background and silver ones appeared to the have the best camouflage. Because of that Bud suggested to paint the Old Crow silver color the next time it was down for heavy maintenance.
The next morning, Captain Bud arrived at the station to find his P-51D Old Crow to use for his mission. To his surprise he found the Old Crow in a gleaming aluminum paint scheme ready for flight. Three members of his crew worked on it through the night scrapping, rubbing and remarking. They were all tired and their hands were raw due to the cold and solvents they used. The change made to P-51D Old Crow was dedicated to Bud Anderson and all 357th crew chief and ground support personnel who maintained the P-51 Mustang during World War II.

Point of Who?
Those of us who choose to write in the third person limited point of view face a critical challenge after every space break: Who's going to own the next scene? That choice affects virtually every sentence that follows it. It affects the action, the voice, the word choice . . . everything. Point of view selections even inform the direction that the plot is going to take.
Let's say that we're going to write a fictional account of the Battle of Gettysburg during the Civil War. For the uninitiated, that engagement, fought in July of 1863, is widely considered the turning point in the war—the defeat from which the Confederate Army never fully recovered. More than 160,000 troops descended on a town of 2,400 residents, and at the end of three days of fighting, over 60,000 lay dead or dying, with many thousands more left wounded on the battlefield.
In our fictional account of the story, who will our POV characters be? If we choose to tell a story set among the commanders (George Meade for the Union, Robert E. Lee for the Confederates), it seems to me that it would be too limiting to assume the role of either commander, if only because their lives and decisions are so well documented. Instead, I would probably create a fictional aide de camp whose thoughts and observations I would record. I would imagine that this choice would have us writing battle scenes from a big-picture, strategic world view.
Maybe we'd want to tell the story of the battle from the POV of a rank-and-file soldier, in which case our story would be less about momentous command decisions than it would be about the everyday soldier's life of unending boredom punctuated by blind terror. Our character's view of the battle would not concern itself with troop movements on the grand scale, but rather from the very limited perspective of a man under fire choking on the stench of smoke and blood. If he could see anything, it would likely be the shoulders of the soldier in front of him.
Another option might be to tell the story of a Gettysburg resident, a civilian facing the horrors of war and its aftermath. Shall we choose a young woman who fears for the safety of her children? A middle aged man who feels guilt for not being part of the battle? Maybe the town doctor who is facing an unending stream of catastrophic traumatic injuries.
Whichever choice we make, the story will report on the same event, but the perspectives taken on that event will be wildly disparate depending upon our choice of POV.
Take the historical nature of the event out of play and the same challenges continue to exist. If we're writing a divorce drama from the POVs of both husband and wife, we need to choose which perspective delivers the most drama for the scene where the lawyer reveals the investigator's tapes of the wife cheating on hubby. If we're writing a story about a kidnapping, we need to decide whether the actual snatching is best revealed to the reader through the point of view of the victim or the mother who sees him being spirited away.
These are really important decisions. How do you make them? Do you have to go back and rewrite your choices like I have had to do more times than I like to think about? For you first-person writers, do you face any kind of the same choices in your writing, or does the narrow window insulate you from them?

I've never written a book in first person before. I've tried, but it never worked ...until now. The book I'm writing is in first person only and it is working for this book. Never thought I'd do it, never thought it would work, but we'll see. So far it is working.ReplyDelete
Nice post, John. First person is arguably more intimate, believable and revealing than third, but tougher to do. I've never attempted it. And because I work with a co-writer, I imagine it would be even harder. Even though our thrillers contain a number of characters that require their own POV scenes, we never jump from one to the other in the same scene without a drop/break or "hand-off" transition. And when a number of these folks are in the same scene, we sometimes choose to pull the camera back and take a more omniscient POV. With multiple characters playing equally important roles, choosing the appropriate POV for each scene is dictated to what must be revealed or concealed at that point in the story.ReplyDelete
Many novels I've read lately contain a mix of first and third person POVs. This can work well if the precedent is set early and the transitions are handled smoothly.
I've done both third-person multiple and first person. I'm currently working on a third-person single POV and it's a big debate whether to shift it to a multiple POV, primarily with the killer being the other POV. I think it changes the book, and not necessarily for the worse. If I bring in the killer's POV, then the novel becomes more of a thriller than a mystery. Still, there's a few plot twists that I want to keep a surprise, and having the killer's POV is pretty much going to wreck those.ReplyDelete
I keep thinking of a lot of John Sandford's Prey novels. One of the things he often does is keep the identity of the killer muddled early in the book, even though he's using a third-person multiple viewpoint. Then, somewhere around the middle of the books, right around the time that Lucas Davenport figures out who the killer probably is, the POV of the killer changes a bit so the killer is being identified in the narrative. It's always been interesting to me (Winter Prey is a terrific example of this), because the first half of the books tend to be both thriller and whodunnit, but after that it tends to be just thriller.
Well, nobody said this was easy, did they?
Well, Winter Prey wasn't quite the one I meant. The two that stick out most for me as doing that are Secret Prey and Chosen Prey.ReplyDelete
I've done both. I use first person for PI stories, as its much easier for introspection. I've never had to completely rewrite a limited third scene in another character's voice, though I have started some scenes and changed before I got too far in. I also write fairly detailed outlines, so i've considered whose POV to use well before I actually get to writing it.ReplyDelete
Like JRM I haven't done first person until now - and it's working (I think) and it's the only POV that would work int he circumstances. It's certainly tougher but the decision was made for me when I tried to write third person and I kept slipping into first!ReplyDelete
I've gone back and rewritten scenes from the other point of view. If I find I keep slipping out of the character's head when I read my first draft, that usually means I wasn't in the right head to start with.ReplyDelete
My first book was single 3rd POV to keep folks in the dark just like the main character was. After that the other three were all multiple 3rd. I'm not sure about trying a 1st, not sure I can comfortably do that, at least not at this time. Third person seems most comfortable to me as it gives me that god-like view over the story. Few writers have kept me interested in 1st person.ReplyDelete
I have plans for an historical thriller set in the Mongolian empire and am debating on using single or multiple 3rd. Also considering using the POV of Genghis Khan's Shitzu...but haven't decided yet.
Sounds unique, Basil. You could all it Point of 'Zu.ReplyDelete

Call for Presentations
Robotics Trends and EH Publishing invite you to submit a session abstract to be considered for presentation at RoboDevelopment Conference and Exposition, to be held November 18-19, 2008 at the Santa Clara Convention Center, Santa Clara, CA.
Deadline: Friday, June 20, 2008
Conference Description: The personal, service and mobile robotics markets have now reached a critical stage and are poised for rapid, dramatic growth. The RoboDevelopment Conference and Exposition provides technical professionals with the real-world solutions and actionable content they need to design, develop and manufacture the next generation of robotics products that will come to define this exciting new industry.

- Tools and Platforms
- Enabling Technology
- Achieving Autonomy
For a complete description of RoboDevelopment, please visit the RoboDevelopment conference website at http://www.robodevelopment.com.
Selection Criteria: Conference attendees are a demanding audience. Robotics Trends will only accept the most compelling submissions that meet our criteria. YOU WILL BE NOTIFIED IF YOUR PRESENTATION IS ACCEPTED. The selection criteria are:
Alignment with Conference Themes
Applicability - The successful candidate presentation will speak to the latest tools, techniques and concepts, by presenting the practical application of the material, including real-world examples and ROI studies where possible.

Reimagining Rosa Parks - Art Exhibit at Prince George's Community College
Prince George's Community College
Rosa Parks' refusal to yield her seat created a clear and defining moment toward the pursuit of racial equality in the United States, and nearly 60 years later that act of civil disobedience carries a universal legacy. The exhibition, Reimagining Rosa Parks, examines and reimagines Rosa Parks' identity and Civil Rights legacy as applied to contemporary Civil Rights issues.
Reimagining Rosa Parks is an exhibition developed for the Book Bridge Project, an annual program that centers curriculum around a featured book.

I saw these in the store and loved them so much that I bought them despite being too big. The are very flattering, covering all the bad points and showing all the good of my feet. Unfortunately I had to return them because my feet were sliding around too much. I would have gotten a size smaller but they don't go lower than size 6.
These are great shoes in comfort and style. The wedge is not too high so you don't get the pressure on the ball of your feet. The strap comes low enough on the toes to cover some of my too long toes. :) If you have them, you know what I mean. I plan on getting a pair in black, also. I teach school and I'm on my feet all day. I also do real estate and need to look sharp when working with my clients. These shoes cover me in both of my careers nicely.

Product InformationThis is a Morphsuit™ product
View all Morphsuit™ products
The Child Ninja Morphsuit combines the look of a traditional ninja outfit with the fun of a Morphsuit! An unusual and very popular costume idea.
Includes: One-Piece Lycra Morphsuit with Hood.
The Child Ninja Morphsuit includes a black and red Morphsuit printed with a ninja outfit and a red head tie. The front of the costume has red Japanese writing on it to give an authentic look.
So what are Morphsuits? Morphsuits are a unisex all-in-one spandex suit that cover the whole of your body from head to toe. They have been specially designed so that you can breathe through them, see through them, drink through them, and even better nobody can see you.
If needed your child can easily free his or her head by removing the hood, which is fastened with velcro.
There are a number of imitation "Morphsuits" currently on the market, but these imitations have proved to be badly made and never last long. The Official Morphsuit far excels these fakes in quality and durability.
Our child Morphsuits are great for playing and groups of kids will love dressing up in the different colours. The list of possibilities for a Morphsuit is endless.

GRAND JUNCTION, Colo. - Tart. Savory. Sweet. Spicy. Buttery goodness.All these culinary flavors and more will electrify your taste buds at "Edesia: A Culinary, Wine & Spirits Adventure" Sunday, March 24, at Palisade's Wine Country Inn. The third annual event, which runs from 1-5 p.m. and costs $65 a person, will also benefit the Marillac Clinic, a local medical nonprofit providing health and dental care to the underinsured and uninsured. According to Kristy Schmidt, Marillac's community and donor relations director, Edesia is extremely important to the medical organization's fundraising goals. In its first year in 2011, Marillac received a donation of $7,500 from Edesia. Then in 2012, $16,000 was raised at the event. "We were just amazed, so pleased and thankful," Schmidt said. At this year's event, three celebrity chefs will be giving demonstrations at this year's Edesia: Chef Theo Otte, Chef Jean Claude Cavalera and Chef Glenn Smith (who gave demos last year). Attendees will learn home-cooking tips, as well as suggested wine pairings with food from the demos."Besides the chef demos, guests can sample food, wine and spirits from a variety of restaurants and caterers, wineries and distilleries," a news release said. "Miss Emily and Steve Williams as well as Randy Fosburgh, the Sinatra sound-alike, will perform throughout the day."There will additionally be an area at Edesia where guests can receive "a quick restorative massage after being on their feet for hours," the news release added. Tickets are available at Alpine Bank, Wine Country Inn and the Marillac Clinic. Call 970-464-5777 or visit www.edesiapalisade.com for more information.

- Kombinatorische Synthese (1) (remove)
- Characterization of Oligonucleotide Microarray Hybridization: Microarray Fabrication by Light-Directed in situ Synthesis – Development of an Automated DNA Microarray Synthesizer, Characterization of Single Base Mismatch Discrimination and the Position-Dependent Influence of Point Defects on Oligonucleotide Duplex Binding Affinities (2008)
- The present thesis focuses on nucleic acid hybridization between free-floating target sequences and complementary end-tethered oligonucleotide probes on the surface of DNA microarrays. Hybridization experiments were performed on oligonucleotide microarrays (DNA Chips) which were fabricated with an automated synthesis apparatus (developed in the framework of the present thesis). The working principle of the microarray synthesizer is based on a photochemically controlled in situ synthesis process. By means of the combinatorial approach up to 25000 different (arbitrary) probe sequences can be fabricated in parallel - starting from nucleotide building blocks (NPPOC-phosphoramidites) - directly on the surface of the microarray. Great flexibility with regard to the choice of probe sequences is achieved by use of virtual photomasks on the basis of a spatial light modulator (Digital Micromirror Device, DMD, Texas Instruments Inc.). A microscope projection photolithography system is employed to project the virtual masks (i.e. the photomask images shown on the DMD) onto the surface of the microarray substrate. Spatially controlled photodeprotection of photolabile NPPOC protective groups (followed by coupling of a further nucleotide building block) enables massively parallel synthesis of DNA probe sequences. In the automated synthesis process microarrays are routinely fabricated over night. Comparable in situ synthesis systems are currently operated only at very few institutions around the world. We first report the application of phosphorus dendrimer substrates in the in situ synthesis of DNA microarrays. With the phosphorus dendrimer functionalization we obtained superior results in regard to sensitivity, surface homogeneity, signal/background-ratio and reusability of the microarrays. We performed microarray hybridization experiments to investigate the impact of single base defects (deliberately introduced single base mismatches and single base bulges) on the binding affinity of oligonucleotide duplexes. This is particularly interesting with regard to genotyping microarrays which are increasingly employed as a molecular diagnostics tool for the detection of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs). In a number of experiments we investigated the large influence of the single-defect position on duplex binding affinity. The origin of this positional dependence - which is apparently not in agreement with the (two-state) nearest-neighbor model - had not been identified so far. We discovered that the influence of the defect position is not restricted to single base mismatches but can also be observed for single base bulge defects. On the basis of the double-ended zipper model (assuming fluctuating end-domain-opening of the oligonucleotide duplex) we could reproduce the experimentally observed positional influence. Moreover, our theoretical investigations on the zipper model indicate a significant positional influence in regard to the contributions of the individual Watson-Crick nearest-neighbor pairs to the Gibbs free energy of oligonucleotide duplex formation. The present work provides for the first time a theoretical approach for the positional-dependent nearest-neighbor model (PDNN) of Zhang et al.. In the in situ synthesis process of DNA microarrays random point-mutations are introduced into the microarray probe sequences. We have shown - experimentally and by means of a numerical model - that synthesis-related defects significantly affect microarray hybridization characteristics. With regard to single base mismatch discrimination, we discovered significant differences between DNA/DNA- and RNA/DNA hybridization: experimental results indicate an improved discrimination of purine-purine mismatch base pairs in RNA/DNA-duplexes. For the experimentally observed, unexpectedly high stability of Group II single bulges we provide an explanatory approach on the basis of the zipper model. The selection of appropriate (specific and sensitive) probe sequences is of crucial importance for successful application of DNA microarray technology. Our experimental results confirm previous results which show that only a small fraction (in piecewise sections about 20-30%) of a long cRNA target sequence is available for hybridization with the complementary microarray probes. Reduced binding affinities are assumed to originate from the influence of target secondary structure. Using software tools for antisense oligonucleotide design (accounting for target accessibility) we were able to predict efficient microarray probes. We discovered evidence that mechanically stable secondary structures (e.g. double-helical sections) interfere with the microarray surface (sterical hindrance) and thus result in reduced microarray binding affinities.

Why Sign Up for No Impact Week?
I first heard about the No Impact Experiment a year ago: a one-week carbon cleanse that challenges participants to examine and reduce their impact on the planet. It was initiated by Colin Beavan, who created No Impact Man, a film documenting his family's attempt at going zero-waste and carbon neutral over the course of a year in New York City. Inspired by Colin's courage, and curious about what I would discover for my own life if I did the same for a week, I joined hundreds of other people around the world and signed up.
I considered myself to be fairly informed and environmentally friendly, so I thought this one-week carbon cleanse would be somewhat unsurprising. After all, I already recycled, composted, and purchased local organic food whenever I could.
No Impact Week:
You can register for the next No Impact Experiment, kicking off January 2nd with YES!
Find out what it's all about.
I began the week by examining my personal consumption, and as the days progressed I moved on to my generation of waste, use of water and energy, and more. I met the daily challenges as best I could, and found that it was quite easy to make small adjustments in my routine that resulted in a big decrease in my carbon footprint. Encouraged to take alternative transportation by the experiment, I discovered that biking and busing around the city were not as difficult as I had assumed. I actually ended up finding a route to my gym by bike that was faster than driving!
I considered the week a success in terms of reducing my carbon footprint, but the most profound and powerful change came from the community contribution focus on Saturday, and the "eco-sabbath" on Sunday.
Saturday was about giving back and volunteering in the community. Reflecting on this day, I realized how distant and separated from my community I had become-—a realization that made me take steps to connect with my neighbors and find time to volunteer at local rallies and events.
Sunday's eco-sabbath was all about switching off—getting away from e-mail and phones, and outside into nature. It gave me a much-needed break from the stress and distraction of the city and my computer. I was able to recharge and reflect on what was actually important in my life. Contemplating—and being in—nature, even for a day, helped me meditate on my life and recapture a sense of perspective that I had somehow lost in the noise of everyday life.
Christmas Without Presents?
"No Impact Man" Colin Beavan suspected the holidays would be just as merry without all the stuff.
Now, a year later, I can see how the No Impact Experiment changed my life. Low-impact Transportation Tuesday inspired me to sell my car and take up public transit and biking. Not buying anything but food for a week made me realize how much money I could save by refraining from the superficial week-to-week purchases we often indulge in to make ourselves feel better. It freed me to focus on real things that actually do make me feel better. I was reminded how important community is, and since then I have become much more active in my city and group of friends. I am happier because of it.
Reflecting on the past year and the improvements that this experiment has brought to my life, I find myself compelled to do it again. I can't recommend a better way to kick off the New Year.
