If a robot is looking for victims at a disaster site, or even exploring another planet, then it certainly better not get stuck in the sand. That may now be a little less likely to happen, as scientists recently studied one of the best sand-travelers in the animal kingdom – the sidewinder rattlesnake. After they analyzed its movement patterns and applied them to an existing snake-inspired robot, that robot was better able climb up sandy inclines. Read More
Researchers at the Georgia Institute of Technology have developed a glove that helps users learn to read and write Braille, all while focusing on unrelated activities. The wearable computer uses miniature vibrating motors sewn into the knuckles, and was found to assist in developing motor skills in participants without them focusing on the movement of their hands.

Tiny probe designed to provide live 3D images from within blood vessels
Imagine if you were trying to clear rubble out of a tunnel, but you could only see that tunnel from the side, instead of looking straight into it. Well, that's currently what it's like for doctors who are trying to see inside patients' blocked coronary blood vessels using ultrasound. Soon, however, a tiny catheter-based probe may give them a 3D real-time forward view from inside those vessels – or from inside the heart itself – not unlike that seen by the microscopic submarine crew in the movie Fantastic Voyage.

Researchers use arm sensors to improve robot control
Researchers at the Georgia Institute of Technology have created a system that makes a human-controlled robot more "intelligent," and improves the amount of control that a human user has over it. It incorporates a number of sensors that are placed on the user's arm to read muscle information, and help the robot to anticipate the user's intentions. The system has been developed to improve safety and efficiency in manufacturing plants. Read More
The Georgia Institute of Technology, in partnership with Udacity and AT&T, is preparing to offer an accredited online master of science (M.S.) degree in Computer Science. The instruction will be via Massively Open Online Courses (MOOC), which will be open to anyone at no charge, but will also be available as for-credit courses leading to an Online Master of Science in Computer Science (OMS CS). The total cost of instruction fees and tuition for those taking the M.S. route is expected to be less than US$7,000. Read More
Arguably the world's most famous painting, da Vinci's Mona Lisa has now been copied onto the world's smallest canvas at the Georgia Institute of Technology. Associate Professor Jennifer Curtis' "Mini Lisa" is one-third the width of a human hair, with details as small as one-eighth of a micron. Mini Lisa demonstrates the flexibility of a new nanolithography technique that can vary the surface concentration of molecules on very small portions of a substrate. Read More
US researches have developed a robot that gets about with a pair of flipper-like arms. By recording FlipperBot's adventures using a high-speed camera, the researchers are gaining understanding about the mechanics of traversing "complex surfaces" such as sand. Read More
Researchers at the Georgia Institute of Technology and Atlanta's Emory University have developed microneedles less than a millimeter in length that can deliver drug molecules and particles to the region in the back of eye. The new technology provides an alternative to current methods which are either invasive, with drugs being injected into the center of the eye, or based on eyedrops, which are limited in their effectiveness.

For those unfortunate enough to suffer from severe spinal cord injuries, the tongue is often the only extremity still under their control. To take advantage of this fact, engineers at the Georgia Institute of Technology have developed what they call the Tongue Drive System (TDS), a wireless, wearable device that allows the user to operate computers and control electric wheelchairs with movements of the tongue. The latest iteration, which resembles a sensor-studded dental retainer, is controlled by a tongue-mounted magnet and promises its users a welcome new level of autonomy with both communication and transportation.

Squeeze power: First 'practical nanogenerator' developed
For the past several years, scientists from around the world have been engaged in the development of nanogenerators – tiny piezoelectric devices capable of generating electricity by harnessing minute naturally-occurring movements, such as the shifting of clothing or even the beating of a person's heart. So far, while they may have worked in principle, few if any of the devices have been able to generate enough of a current to make them practical for use in consumer products. Now, however, scientists from the Georgia Institute of Technology are claiming to have created "the world's first practical nanogenerator." Read More

The levels did a good job of following the action from each movie. I thought the choice of controllable characters and abilities was very creative.
If this is your first LEGO game, you will find it to be very easy to adapt to the controls and will enjoy the unique charm of the "LEGO World". Cutscenes are enjoyable and humorous.
If you've played LEGO Star Wars or Batman (or both), you know how the game works; you just need to get in there and start exploring! Lots of extras and a few surprises in this one....

There are many puzzles in the game and the kids enjoyed figuring them out. It is a 2 player co-op so it makes it a bit more enjoyable.
I recommened this game if you have younger kids or are new to gaming and want to learn how to get used to the controllers, game play style, etc.

The only time the game really faults is when your not playing with a partner. The AI is not all too brilliant and half the time will mess up everything you are aiming to achieve. So by all means find someone to play with, it will be much more enjoyable without the hassle of the AI messing you up.

Lego-style games are usually great for two players, and this one is no exception. I had rented TMNT and Avatar before this one, and Indy is way more fun than those two. If you have seen Indy's live action movies, this game is surely a more humorous illustration of the same stories.
Also the achievements are not hard to get. Just turn on all the cheats and play through twice, after which almost all the gamerscores will be added to your gamertag.
I heard that this game was repetitive compared to other Lego games. However, if you are new to this series, and like to play with your family, I will strongly recommend this one.

Gold. Duh.
I am well-known to love me some Star Wars games, having adored BOTH Star Wars games on the 360 to date. Lego Indiana continues the series with a game that is easy enough for young kids to complete, but with the usual insane amount of depth for the more hardcore of players. You have the usual categories of characters --- some can jump high and scream, some are small, some have weapons, et al. This is a brilliant game design that has proven to be remarkable durable as I figured I'd be a little sick of it by now, but I'm totally not.
The audio is, well, Lego. Lots of bricks hitting the floor. The usual avoidance of sub-par dialogue.
Visually, it's actually an improvement. The occasional perspective shots (don't know why, but when you have the out-of-focus distance shot, it just looks really cool to me) are really well done and everything looks smoothe. Admittedly, the visual requirements for a Lego title are a little less demanding than most games on the market, but they did nothing to fall down on the job here.
This is a great game for families and gamers alike. I am wondering if the Lego series will eventually hit the Crash level of tedium, but I'm starting to doubt it will, honestly.

the PROS:
1. it's Indy! if your a fan of the movies, of COURSE you'll love this game. play from the Raiders to the Crusade, u'll love it.
2. the graphics are actually very nice. it looks like ur really playing with legos.
3. gameplay is very good. while it LOOKS like ur plaing with legos, it doesnt FEEL like u are. everything feels nice and smooth. oh yeah, and did i mention u get to use the whip?! and as with the star wars games, this one gives u all the things that made its predecessors great(co-op, multiple characters, etc.).
4. Pantamime humor! okay....i guess thats only a PRO if you LIKE pantamime... but the silent acting works perfectly with these titles.
5. VEHICLES! yes vehicles. there will be a mission or two in a jeep, and yes, it is cool.
the CONS:
1. no nazis. maybe its not THAT big of a deal, but even though theyre keeping it family friendly, smashing a soldier w/out a swatstika on his arm isnt as satisfying as it would be if he DID have one.
2 PANTAMIME! yeah, i know i put it in the PROS, but go bak and look...i said IF YOU LIKE THAT SORTA THING! i couldnt make this a SPLIT decision cuz its good AND bad. its good cuz it works for the game. its bad cuz MIMES ARE ANNOYING!
right, so there it is. another solid, loveable, family friendly game that all can enjoy. rent this game or buy it, ur call. but its a solid 9/10.

The game offers the same addictive stud collecting and the same sense of humor as the Star Wars Lego games. Puzzles abound and you can just enjoy solving the puzzles and watching the funny cut scenes if you don't want to worry about collecting studs or special artifacts. Kids could play this game pretty easily and you aren't punished too badly for falling off a cliff or getting shot too many times by those darn Nazis.
I haven't seen any kind of online play yet though. It appears that there is only multiplayer if you play with someone on the same console. That's not what I would hope for, but it only cost it one point in my rating. I have a friend from college who is a HUUUUGE Indie fan, and this is one time where we both actually have the same game at the same time. And... we can't play online. Maybe Lego Batman will come through in the online mode.

My girlfriend is the type that enjoys playing video games, but doesn't like competing against each other for several reasons. One is because I can obviously spank her in anything we try because I'm a hardcore gamer, and two because it breeds resentment and hostility between us.
She really likes Lego Indiana Jones because we get to solve puzzles together, and each of us can work together to figure out what the other might miss. She loves being Indy and making me be the sidekick. The puzzles are hard, but not too difficult for novice gamers, and there are not lot of difficult button combinations to memorize.
If you're looking for a really fun game that you can play with your significant other that can bring you closer, I highly recommend Lego Star Wars.

I liked it even better than the Star Wars trilogy but I do think this one is a little easier. It took me 2-3 days to get 100% completion of the game and I only missed 4 achievements just bc i didn't feel like taking the time for the redundancy of them, but i got the skill ones.
I did look online for hints and tips a couple of times so if you are stubborn and want the satisfaction of finishing it on your own it might take a little longer.
Just as the the other lego games it is best to finish all the movies str8 out and then play the free play mode where the real fun starts. Fun for all ages. And if you have young kids it is great to watch their mind work trying to figure out the puzzles.

As always, maneuvering is tricky for younger players without decent skills on a controller and hard for older folks with controller issues as well.
LEGO Indiana Jones does have a ton of funny references not only to the previous games but also the movie! Hidden gems everywhere you look and characters doing hilarious stuff at every turn. This is beyond the hidden treasures you have to find within the game, of course, those have a life all their own to complete 100% of the title!
Overall a solid rating and well worth adding to your game library, the 360 version is one of the best to choose for it's size, smoothness and gameplay without issues.

Beautiful brand new renovated cottage
Every detail has been taken care of in this absolutely beautiful remodeled cottage with tons of history. The owner is incredibly helpful and a wealth of information on the area not to mention providing delicious locally farmed oysters. Its a short drive to Camden and to Bar Harbor and 5 minutes to downtown picturesque Castine. Everything in the home is brand new and very efficient and clean. The screened in porch was an excellent benefit for long nights playing board games. Theres even a fire-pit for s'mores and ghost stories! I would highly recommend staying at the Honeymoon Cottage and we plan on coming back soon - our son is attending MMA and when we are in maine you'll find us here!
Ideal cottage for our July visit.
We spent over 2 weeks in this lovely, craftsman style cottage. Easy walk to town dock, town green and other venues in the village of Castine. Lots of windows which allowed the predominately southwest breeze to blow through the house and kept us very comfortable. Although the house has two bedrooms and a bath upstairs, we were very comfortable using the first floor bedroom and bath during our stay. A love seat and bench on the enclosed front porch with windows was a pleasant place to sit and read during the day.
Get away, away from tourist
My husband and I just returned to Minnesota from this wonderful get away in Castine Me. The homes location worked out wonderful for us. We wanted to visit the parks and enjoy small hikes. Castine has a beautiful 5 mile hiking trail, with a small establishment on the water front to enjoy a meal at a picnic table on the dock, along with the beach being a few miles down the road. If you are looking for a vacation away from all the other tourist, this is it. The home has everything you need to make you feel as though it was your own personal cabin away from home. We cooked a few lobster meals and the kitchen was stocked to do so. The linens are wonderful along with the up to date kitchen. This home is very clean!! I am not use to homes being only one car length away from the main street, so this did catch me off guard, but the road noise was very limited after dark and did not keep me awake once. Only the skunks walking around the yard woke me up. :) The bedroom up the spiral stair case just made it more charming. If you like the outdoors, take the trip to Baxter State Park, it is worth it.

PoPoLos reanimated
PoPoLos is getting mouth-to-mouth. And once it's breathing, it will get a desperately needed facelift and tummy tuck and will reopen in mid-December. At least that's what old/new owner Maury Jaffer plans. Jaffer just purchased the Preston-Royal restaurant after selling it to the now desperately troubled FoodStar Restaurant Group some 19 months ago. "We're going to redo the restaurant inside and out," Jaffer says. "It's been really run-down." To help build it up, Jaffer brought in some old/new blood. He has hired onetime PoPoLos chef Los Akins and has given him a stake in the thing. He also hired onetime PoPoLos chef Abraham Castillo -- who had stints at City Café and the defunct Centrum bungle known as Jungle Red -- to help Akins. But Jaffer says he's flirting with a name change. "I'm really caught betwixt and between," he admits. "The tragedy of it is that the previous owners [FoodStar] took the name and tried to save their restaurant down in the Quadrangle. And of course they lost that."

Nickety split?
Rumors have been gurgling for weeks. Phil Romano and Patrick Colombo, the pair of Dallas restaurant veterans who launched Nick & Sam's, naming it after their toddler sons to whom they intended to leave it someday, split after a caustic fracas. Colombo denies the fracas part, but says there's definitely a rift. "Philip and I are discussing some things right now, and we may decide to separate," he says. Colombo cites the pressures of his executive position with Wyndham Hotels and Resorts along with an urge to pursue other Dallas restaurant concepts as reasons for the pondered split. He insists there's no bad blood between him and Romano. "I wouldn't want anything negative to happen to Nick and Sam's. My son's name is still on it." Imagine the imbroglio if his toddler gets hold of a lawyer.
Gorman goes
After just a few months navigating the subtle vicissitudes of "global water cuisine," AquaKnox executive chef Jason Gorman is jumping ship. The former Grape chef will mingle with the "M Crowd," taking command of the kitchen at The Mercury as of November 15. "As much as I like working with Stephan [Pyles] and Michael [Cox], things have changed since I've been here," says Gorman, who admits he got bogged down in the administrative demands of the job. "I'd rather just be in the kitchen cooking."

Can we use musical instruments in the church?
Some churches deny the use of musical instruments in their churches because they do not see them clearly used in the New Testament. Therefore, many ask if it is okay to use musical instruments in worship. The answer is best given by scripture:
"Let the word of Christ richly dwell within you, with all wisdom teaching and admonishing one another with psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with thankfulness in your hearts to God." (Col. 3:16). Also, "And do not get drunk with wine, for that is dissipation, but be filled with the Spirit, 19speaking to one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody with your heart to the Lord." (Eph. 5:18-19).
We are commanded by the Lord to receive teaching and admonish each other with psalms, hymns, and spiritual
songs--singing to God. Singing to God is definitely worship, and this is done in churches. Therefore, we are commanded to do this with psalm, hymns, and spiritual songs.
In particular, the Psalms contain instructions that we worship the Lord with musical instruments:
- The introduction of Psalm 6, which is part of scripture--not an addition by commentators, says, "For the choir director; with stringed instruments, upon an eight-string lyre, A Psalm of David."
- Psalm 33:2, "Give thanks to the Lord with the lyre; sing praises to Him with a harp of ten strings."
- Psalm 71:22, "I will also praise Thee with a harp, even Thy truth, O my God; to Thee I will sing praises with the lyre, O Thou Holy One of Israel."
- Psalm 81:1-3, "Sing for joy to God our strength; shout joyfully to the God of Jacob. 2Raise a song, strike the timbrel, the sweet sounding lyre with the harp. 3Blow the trumpet at the new moon, at the full moon, on our feast day."
- Psalm 92:1-4, "It is good to give thanks to the Lord, and to sing praises to Thy name, O Most High; 2To declare Thy lovingkindness in the morning, and Thy faithfulness by night, 3With the ten-stringed lute, and with the harp; with resounding music upon the lyre. 4For Thou, O Lord, hast made me glad by what Thou hast done, I will sing for joy at the works of Thy hands."
- Psalm 98:5-6, "Sing praises to the Lord with the lyre; with the lyre and the sound of melody. 6With trumpets and the sound of the horn. Shout joyfully before the King, the Lord."
Furthermore, in Eph 5:19, the phrase "making melody" is the Greek word, psallo, which means, "1) to pluck off, pull out, 2) to cause to vibrate by touching, to twang, 2a) to touch or strike the chord, to twang the strings of a musical instrument so that they gently vibrate, 2b) to play on a stringed instrument, to play, the harp, etc. 2c) to sing to the music of the harp 2d) in the NT to sing a hymn, to celebrate the praises of God in song."1 We can see that the making melody to the Lord involves the use of musical instruments.
Therefore, we are free to use musical instruments in the church in our worship to the Lord.

Could Chemicals in Wine Improve Stent Performance?
When tested in rats, coated stents led to less inflammation, study finds
FRIDAY, April 29 (HealthDay News) -- A new study in rats suggests that coating stents with two chemicals found in red wine may help them do a better job of propping open arteries after angioplasty.
Stents are designed to keep blood vessels open and unclogged, and they now come coated with medications designed to prevent clots. But the medications can cause problems in the vessels and even lead to blood clots in rare cases.
Researchers from Louisiana State University coated stents with two chemicals, resveratrol and quercetin, that are found in red wine. They then inserted the stents into the arteries of rats.
The researchers found that the treated stents blocked the narrowing of blood vessels and led to less inflammation in the four weeks after they were inserted into the rats.
The study looks promising, said Alzheimer's disease researcher Philippe Marambaud, who studies resveratrol. "There's overwhelming evidence that this compound has very powerful properties," he said. Marambaud is an assistant professor at the Feinstein Institute for Medical Research in Manhasset, N.Y.
Dr. Gregg Fonarow, a professor and director of the Ahmanson-UCLA Cardiomyopathy Center at the University of California, Los Angeles, described the research as intriguing. But he cautioned that because "this is a preliminary study in an animal model, much more research and large-scale clinical trials would be needed" to determine whether the coated stents have value as a treatment for people.
The study was to be presented Friday at an American Heart Association conference in Chicago.

Aurora survivor responds to Newtown shooting
Southbury man working to curb gun violence
|Stephen Barton, seen here in July 2012 after he survived the Aurora, Colo. movie theater shooting that killed 12 people. RA Archive
Never again.
Those words echoed in Stephen Barton's mind in the days and weeks after he found himself in the Aurora, Colo. Century 16 12:05 a.m. showing of "The Dark Knight Rises." It was a cross-country cycling trip gone awry, a postcollege graduation celebration cut short when a gunman fired into the crowd, killing 12 and injuring 58, including Barton.

" I comment, because accuracy in reporting is important; however, yes indeed, "buckshot: sounds so much scarier. A 12 gauge shotgun was used at Aurora in addition to a hand gun and semi-automatic rifle. Was he really shot with "buckshot" or just bird-shot - even with the smallest buckshot (#4 is slightly less then 1/4" in diameter and a 12 gauge shell holds about 20) , 20 would very likely prove fatal. If it were the most common 00 buckshot, they would be about 1/3" dia. and there would be about 8-9 in a 12 gauge shell, so he would have had to have been shot at directly with a minimum of 3 shells (not likely), and it most definitely would have been fatal. It was very likely that bird-shot was used, which is rarely fatal unless a direct shot at face to face range, which it was not according to all reports.
This does not lessen the seriousness of the shooting, the point is that he is lucky to be alive because buckshot was NOT used and not at close range, so don't say it was. "

This ring is great! I bought it for my fianc�e and it is beautiful and really a good deal! The only thing is that it is not as wide as we thought... but still great! A wider ring would have looked to bulky, so in the end, we are completely happy with this. :)
Nice ring overall and a lot less expensive than at a jewelry store. Would buy again without hesitation.
bought two the sizes are 9 and 10 they are definitely different widths. not a problem and the comfort cut is very nice. it's a good looking low profile ring. the weight is as it is implied.
Got this for my husband who lost his platinum band. Not as nice as platinum but still a beutiful ring at a great price. The price is doubled in retail stores. My husband is average size 5'11 and 200 lbs. The ring is just the right size, not too thin but not overstated.
I lost an expensive wedding band and couldn't afford to go the same route. Did much research to find something that would stand the test of time and am positive i've found it. The 5mm size if perfect. Not to thin or taking up my entire finger. In comparison to several local jewelers, using the exact size, weight, and 10k rating found this band to be anywhere from 25-50% less than what they could offer. Couldn't be happier. Wife loves it too! Highly recommend!

Same-sex marriage supporters take victory lap in Lake View
BY MITCH DUDEK Staff Reporter November 7, 2013 10:28PM

Updated: December 9, 2013 11:10AM
Gay-rights supporters held the equivalent of an end zone dance Thursday night in Lake View to celebrate the passage of marriage equality in Illinois.
About 100 people gathered in 39-degree weather in a parking lot at Roscoe and Halsted to listen as dance music played and speakers lauded the movement.
Some revelers focused on maintaining the gay-rights momentum.
"Next we set off a glitter bomb on Putin," said one speaker, referring to Russian President Vladimir Putin and his restrictive gay policy.
Others just wanted to savor the moment.
"It's important to come out and celebrate and be happy," said Brent Holman-Gomez, 38, a mortgage banker from Lincoln Square.
Holman-Gomez sang the song "Somewhere" from the "West Side Story" because it captured the moment: "There's a place for us, somewhere a place for us, we've created it right here now."
John Ryan, with rainbow gloves to keep his rainbow-flag-waving hands warm, smiled widely.
"I'm just so happy we finally go it together because it's been too, too long." said Ryan, a 59-year-old resident of Andersonville who works in advertising.
"It's time we all get on board in getting what we want out of this country, and you can only do that by being present and getting off the couch and doing something," he said.

Roughly 30 intranets, portals, and knowledge bases, over 1000 internal blogs – the challenge is how to distribute information in such a mess.
- Information management gap
- The solution
- Customer examples
- Enterprise options
[Sounds a bit more like a pitch than I was expecting this morning . . . didn't even get my grande soy latte this morning, so I may just be less receptive, or more snarky, depending on your perception.]
Problem is information overload – within and without the firewall.
Status quo: Insuffienct. Email is overused, static portals are broken, search isn't the answer. [What's a static portal? A portal not built on KnowNow's technology? I think "static" and "portal" don't go together.]
[This makes at least twice now that I am seeing the same slides a second time in three days - these same slides were part of the "Launch Pad" presentation form KnowNow.[
The solution: Bridge the Information Gap through Syndication (RSS) in the Enterprise. We call this Live Information Management.
Step 1: Access and monitor all information sources.
Step 2: Automate relevancy.
Step 3: Push relevant information to employees, customers, partners
Step 4: Capture user behavior
Technology - the "Enterprise Syndication Server" [provided by someone like KnowNow, one assumes] in the middle takes all the feeds from within and without, aggregates, filters, finds relevancy, and delivers back to users, via RSS.
In order to effectively leverage RSS within the enterprise, here's what we've found to be the minimum requirements:
- Monitor many if not all sources inside and outside the enterprise
- Match content to users based on relevancy
- Leverage network effects
- Deliver information to users as available
- Provide enterprise security and management
- Enable end-user personalization and control
Customer stories: Wells Fargo, an unnamed bank,
Audience question: Why is it better, in this case, to send out an alert about something which has occured as an RSS feed rather than an email?
Answer: first, we alert a lot of ways – desktop widget, feed reader, portal – there's lots of ways to do this. Ultimately what we heard was that the alerts via email were frustrating to users because it was just another email in a series.
Options for the Enterpise:
1. Wait for major vendors to offer RSS. (2-5 years)
2. Stick with status quo (email as main information sharing and distrubution tool)
3. Implement and Enterprise Syndication Solution

Hours: \;Please refer to the website for current museum hours.\n
Price: $10 for General Admission\, $7 for Students\n
Description: Early in the 20th century\, imported Western artistic trends\, among them Art Deco and Jazz styles\, brought new dimensions to traditional Japanese design and fashion. Kimono in the 20th Century examines various kimono types and fabric motifs\, reflecting the ways in which people incorporated these shifting preferences for design into their garments for celebratory events.\n
These brilliant kimono from the mid-20th century show an array of garment types for various seasons and occasions. Kimono in the exhibition range from the most formal reserved for ceremony to stylish underwear. Literally\, the &ldquo\;thing to wear\,&rdquo\; a kimono is for Japan a signal of native culture\, and communicates dignity\, class and artistic sense. The most common type of kimono is the homongi (kimono for visiting)\, which are decorated with patterns that flow down from the shoulder to the hem. One often sees the homongi at a New Year&rsquo\;s visit to a Shinto shrine or at celebrations of life events such as the first presentation of a baby to a Shinto shrine\, a graduation\, wedding\, or retirement party. This exhibition features examples of all these types in two rotations to reflect the seasons and delight the eye.\n
