The Guidebook
China: the great unknown
It's hard to guess what might come up when you mention China these days. It's a rapidly evolving country undergoing a(nother) cultural revolution. Is it communist or capitalist? Not easy to tell. On one hand you have villagers living much the way they always have, on the other businesspeople driving stylish European cars and moving into American-style suburban houses.
China is throwing up entire cities at a time and produces many of the hard goods that we consume. Yet it's still very much an ancient country with complicated social protocols and some rather baffling traditions. Everyone who goes there is both enchanted and daunted, if not repulsed, by some aspects of the culture. The country has been opening up to foreign travel since the 1980s, yet you still don't have carte blanche to go wherever you want. When it comes to fascinating cultural exploration, China tops the list.
Here are our three top picks for travel in China.
Yunnan Explorer
Southern China's Yunnan Province is widely regarded as the country's most culturally diverse and scenically spectacular region. Sharing a common border with Vietnam, Laos and Burma, Yunnan is home to many minority groups with origins as varied as their languages and costumes. Many migrated from the mountains of Tibet, while others came from the Muslim regions along the ancient Silk Route. You might be surprised to learn that there are vibrant Muslim communities in Yunnan today, one of which we make a point of visiting.
The scenery changes dramatically on this ten-day adventure as we move across the province from the dry windswept plains of the Tibetan plateau to the spectacular gorges of the upper Yangtze River. Here, we go on a memorable walk through Tiger Leaping Gorge.
Our tour starts in Kunming, a busy city with bustling markets, temples and a strong ethnic minority influence. A half-day walking tour takes us to watch the locals practising taichi in People's Square, the Flower and Bird Market, and other sights.
Our next stop is Dali, near the banks of Er Hai Lake with the Cang Shan mountain range forming an impressive backdrop. Go boating on the lake, or catch a chairlift up to visit the monasteries in the mountains behind town.
After a visit to Lijiang, former capital of the Naxi Kingdom, our private mini-bus takes us past the upper reaches of the Yangtze River where it thunders through Tiger Leaping Gorge, framed by 15,000-foot mountains. In the gorge, a sheer cliff face rises from the raging torrents. We walk in the gorge and stay overnight in local villages such as Ben Di Wan. The facilities here are clean but extremely basic, as we are visiting a remote area frequented only by adventurous travellers.
Switching gears, we travel to Zhongdian, a town set on a high plateau with a distinctly Tibetan feel. Home to a range of minority groups from western China, it encapsulates what's best about the region. Glimpse yaks grazing in the alpine and stroll past farmhouses built in the distinctive local style. Our highlight here is a visit to the Songzanlin Monastery, restored since the ravages of the Cultural Revolution and once again a place of homage for Tibetan Lamaism.
Accommodation: We spend three nights in comfortable hotels and six nights in local guesthouse with a more basic level of accommodation, since tourist-class hotels don't exist outside of major centers.

Walking the Great Wall
Stepping out across the peaceful semi-ruin of a section of the Great Wall is like walking in the footsteps of the past. If you can get away from the most popular sections of the Wall—as we do on this tour—you'll have the peace and tranquility required for the kind of daydreaming necessary to recreate the past in your mind. You'll also get a great sense of the scale and the majesty of this remarkable piece of engineering.
On this tour we trek along contrasting sections of the Wall, both dilapidated and rebuilt stretches. Since the Wall was constructed over a 2000-year period, the new sections are just a continuation of that ongoing building process. This tour involves scrambling up some steep sections of the Wall, and walks of up to seven hours.
Beijing is no less an attraction on this tour, and we include a full afternoon of sightseeing including the Forbidden City, with its numerous courtyards and temples, Tiananmen Square—the largest square in the world with capacity for over a million people—and the city's hutongs, or narrow alleys, to see what is left of old Beijing and its traditions.
The first less-visited section of the Wall we visit is located 3 hours from Beijing at Mutian Yu. One of the best-preserved parts of the Great Wall, the Mutian Yu section served as the northern barrier defending the capital and the imperial tombs. It's massively fortified with 22 watchtowers on a 2,500 yard-long section.
The next section at Jiankou was built in 1368 during the Ming dynasty and constructed of large white rocks, very noticeable from a distance. Thanks to steep mountains, white rock and beautiful scenery, Jiankou is a photographers dream, and is where most photos of the Wall are taken.
One of the last sections of the Wall that we visit, Taipingzhai, bears mentioning because it's home to the largest tower of the Great Wall, the 'Phoenix Tower'. The most unusual feature here is the street of eight diagrams, a labyrinth set up to stop invaders. We also visit the East Qing Tombs and the impressive Sacred Way. The Qing Royalty spent their living summers in Chengde, and it seems that they chose this spot for their 'final' journey.
There's more to this tour than the Wall, of course, including Beijing on both ends, great food and interesting accommodation. To get the most out of your tour, book an extra day or two of accommodation at either end.
Accommodation: in Beijing, we stay in a good, tourist class hotel with twin rooms and private facilities. Outside of Beijing the accommodation is basic, as tourist style hotels are non-existent. At the guesthouses/homestays used, basic hot showers are available but water is often erratic.

Real Food Adventure – China
Gastronomy adds another dimension to travel in China. What we think of as Chinese food here in North America often bears little resemblance to what's served in China. Throughout this massive country there are many distinct cuisines, and it's our hope that you will be tantalized by a good number of them!
Highlights of this ten-day tour include Beijing's ancient hutongs where the best street food is to be found, Tiananmen Square and the Forbidden City, Beijing's Donghuamen Night Market where anything goes, the Great Wall, Xian's Terracotta Warriors, peppery treats of Sichuan cuisine in Chengdu, a cooking class, a homestay in a beautiful farming village learning about the food grown and country life in China, with the grand finale set in Shanghai, where fresh food markets, an excellent bar culture and a range of amazing architecture await.
Our tour starts in Beijing, a cultural and culinary hotspot. Discover ancient hutongs—networks of narrow streets—and modern architecture, impressive cultural sights and food from all corners of the country. Start out your culinary adventure with Peking duck, beautifully set out in delicate bowls. Wrap up the meat in pancakes and drizzle with sauce, flavor with cucumber and spring onion, and tuck into an imperial dish that has been enjoyed in the region for eight hundred years.
The next day you can take part in a language lesson, test what you learned buying ingredients in the Sichuan Market, and get ready to make some noise in a cooking class. Enjoy the fruits of your labor, then take a tour around Tiananmen Square and the Forbidden City. The next morning we head into Mutianyu, where the spectacular Great Wall of China awaits. Walk along this partially restored section of the Wall – the views from here are unparalleled. Either negotiate the steep stairs or jump on a cable car or toboggan for the trip back down. We are treated to lunch at a rainbow trout farm, where fresh local produce is the centrepiece of the meal, and end the day on an overnight train to Xi'an.
Xi'an is the first stop on the Silk Road, so spices from all over the east had a delicious influence over the region's cuisine. Here we take in the Terracotta Warriors, life-size statues built to guard the tomb of China's first emperor in the 210 BC, undiscovered until 1974. Xi'an is known as the snack capital of China, so what better way to discover this than going on a snack crawl! But don't be distracted—be sure to lunch on Xi'an's most famous dish, yang rou pao mo, a seasoned mutton stew with unleavened bread crumbled into it.
There are many other wonderful stops on this tour including Chengdu, Jinbo Village and Shanghai, where you can stop into a restaurant to try hairy crab (in season), drunken chicken, spicy braised eggplant and braised pork belly. Buy a live fish at the Tongchuan Lu Shanghai Fish Market and have it cooked up for lunch at a nearby restaurant, and explore Shanghai First Food, a food store that overpowers the senses with the impressive range of foods it stocks.
Accommodation: We spend three nights in comfortable hotels and six nights in local guesthouse with a more basic level of accommodation, since tourist-class hotels don't exist outside of major centers.

There is truly too much gastronomy on this tour to describe in so short a space—suffice to say that this tour favors its belly! For more magnificent Chinese travel itineraries, click here.

In the era of new process technologies such as biological transformations and nano-science, many of the old technologies are presumed to no longer be important. This is certainly not true of fluid mixing. Both high tech and low tech process industries need some knowledge of mixing, whether for dispersing nano-particles or feeding oxygen and nutrients to micro-organisms. Even in this new century, the starting engineer and the more experienced engineer will encounter mixing problems with significant frequency.
Fluid mixing deals with complex processes, involving multiple phases in complex geometries. It is a topic barely mentioned in a typical engineering curriculum, yet often referred to in the manufacturing world. In the process of scaling up from a small unit to a larger one, fluid mixing still plays a dominant role. It is a topic chemical engineers need to understand, and learn to master.
In this webinar, we introduce key concepts in fluid mixing, and discuss the range of equipment geometries that are involved. We also discuss the resources available for helping the practicing engineer solve many mixing problems.

Bye Bye Brigadier
9 comments:
I've already planned to climb a nearby hill in the next few days, and let off 5 rounds from my pistol as a tribute to this fine gentleman, and the character he portrayed so well.ReplyDelete
Hopefully, Pertwee is now giving him another bollocking somewhere in time and space, similar to the one he dished out when mr Courtney staggered-in drunk during the legendary Panopticon interview.
Favorite Brigadier moment is when he calls in a tank to deal with the Giant Robot. It was in fact a superimposed Action Man Scorpion tank.ReplyDelete
"Chap with the wings there. Five rounds rapid!"ReplyDelete
best British sci-fi dialogue ever? discuss.
RIP indeed...
It's the best British sci-fi dialogue ever, no need for discussion.ReplyDelete
My own personal favourite Brig moment has to be from the 'Time Monster', when he says "TOMTIT".ReplyDelete
Immature, I know, but you only have to look at the twinkle in his eye to see that he's pissing himself along with the rest of us.
Shame the story's crap.
God bless The Brig and all who sailed in him.
Sad news. It'll be five pints rapid in the pub tomorrow to honour him.ReplyDelete
damn. and eerily i was wearing my 'Brigadier' button badge in london last friday. sad news, rip...ReplyDelete

Awesome Drive-Thrus
These days it's not just Mickey D's and KFC that have drive-thru lanes. These unique establishments are taking the drive-thru to new culinary heights.
By Justine Sterling and Kiri Tannenbaum
Tokyo Yakitori
Location: Burbank, CA
What You'll Find: In Japan, Yakitori is a style of grilled food (usually different parts of chicken from heart to thigh) accompanied by beer at rollicking, smoke-filled bars. But at Tokyo Yakitori, you can have the salty, crispy pleasures of yakitori while sitting in the driver's seat. (Not surprisingly, beer is missing from the mix.)

ZZ Top's Billy Gibbons Remixes New Depeche Mode Single
Generally speaking, ZZ Top isn't a band we tend to look to for innovation and change; they do one thing, and they do it very, very well. But the Texas trio can still surprise us sometimes, as evidenced by their recent collaboration with the British synth-pop veterans in Depeche Mode.

5 Rock Supergroups We Wish Were a Reality
The list of incredible supergroups can go on a while, but have you ever sat and wished two bands that never played together, actually did (or would)? We put together a list of five supergroups we wish actually existed -- either past or present.

Heres my rundown thus far,
Its weight is medium to heavy, but if you can hold an X7 fine then your ok...just get a gun strap. I put the dye rotor on it but it blocks most of the top rail for any modification. This means I have to either get a raised feedneck, get a scope offset, or modify a ripclip somehow..so it kinda lost some points there (notice the pictures with mods on top rail do not have a hopper on it...I recommend observation trainning soldier!).
The feel and comfort of the M-Tac is very nice and balenced, especially when you pull that trigger. It shoots nice and straight at 28 BPS and is LOUD!!!! This thing sounds mean like an M4, definatly not for those that care about being consealed for long.
I would suggest this gun for anyone who wants to be their teams "SAW" gunner due to the sheer amount of paint you can dump down on a fire'n lane.
Stock barrel isn't too bad, however slight problem with ultralite fans like myself, you would need to dremel out around the front a little wider to fit a ultralite back in there. Slight modification, but a modification nontheless.
My overall summery is this:
Upers: Fast, Mil-Sim Look, Accurate / straight shooting, comfort while shooting, fear factor, performance is amazing
Downers: Price, two major modifications needed for somthing this expensive is a major downside!
Overall: I love this gun and will mod it out, but I'm a little annoyed I have to mod it further to do what I want considering its cost. It does shoot better than any other mil-sim gun I've fired including the BT TM7 (I own one of those too). If you want a mil-sim gun that is higher quality than a tippy, drop your A-5's and X7's and pick up a TM7... I have my own review for that too but haven't posted it yet. Best buy in mil-sim price is definatly a TM7, if you have the cash for a M-Tac, buy it and you wont be dissapointed with its performance, but you will be dissapointed in modification (out the box anyway).
I hope this was a fair assessment of my personal use of this marker. If I were to go on PBreview I would give it an 8 of 10, that being mostly performance and some cool features, but I bought it for both performance and easy modification which is why it lost 2 points.
Good Hunting,
Cpt Blackout

Manufacturer #: 2000
Safety considerations require rifles equipped with tubular magazines to be loaded with flat nosed bullets only. This ensures that the cartridges will not ignite one another. While safe, these bullets travel only at moderate velocities. To address this, Sierra has added a series of features to promote reliable expansion. Two of the bullets offer a hollow point design in which a large frontal cavity promotes rapid expansion on impact. In the 30-30 and 375 Winchester bullets, Sierra offers a Power Jacket which features a series of "skives" cut into the mouth of the jacket which allow for greater expansion at lower velocities.

It may be cocktail hour at the Beverly Wilshire Hotel, but a jet-lagged Claudia Schiffer is sound asleep upstairs in a penthouse suite. Fortunately, her fiance, supermagician David Copperfield, has found something to occupy his time. He's downstairs in La Fiesta Room, chatting with hundreds of people. Oddly, it's hard to actually see any of them. Another zany Copperfield illusion? Not this time.
Copperfield is actually communicating with his audience via laptop computer on the Prodigy network. ''Do you have a retirement date set yet?'' writes Interguy. Copperfield puts his arm around the (middle-aged, swooning) moderator who's relaying the questions and dictates an answer: ''No, Siegfried! Relax, okay? I'll be flying my show when I'm George Burns' age even if I have to fly with a walker.''
Like a growing number of celebs with product to move, Copperfield who has a TV special to promote has found cyberspace to be a key pit stop on the publicity superhighway. Beginning in 1992, everyone from Marianne Faithfull to Ed McMahon to New York's Archbishop John Cardinal O'Connor (''Hi Your Excellency!'') has participated in on-line interviews, most of them on America Online, Prodigy, and CompuServe or such smaller, more anarchic bulletin boards as SonicNet. True, there's no way to roll the clip, but what the process lacks in visuals it makes up for in low overhead. Most celebs either log on from home or from an office, and all they need are a computer and a moderator somebody to type for the celebrity or, in rare cases, to demonstrate how to do it.
Best of all, the cyberchat world is democratic a place where cheese (most of the original Brady Bunch kids have appeared on-line, as well as soap queen Susan Lucci, Tom Jones, Geraldo Rivera, Sherman Hemsley, and Pauly Shore) gets as much time as caviar (Mick Jagger, Jerry Seinfeld, Jay Leno, David Bowie, David Caruso, and Martin Landau).
But why spend an hour and 10 minutes, as Copperfield is doing tonight, in front of a terminal to reach 700-plus people when an eight-minute shot on Letterman (where Copperfield is performing the following week) can be seen by 7 million? The magician shrugs. ''It's fun,'' he says. ''It's a way I can talk to people and really be myself'' the self he will identify to a fan minutes later as ''David Kotkin from Metuchen, N.J....exit 10.''
Question: What is the hardest part about being on the road?
Garth Brooks: Missing your family. Otherwise it's the sex-and-pizza thing. When it's great, it's great. And when it's bad, it's still pretty good.
Sadly, the same thing cannot be said about celebrity cyberchat. When it's great, it's great. Multimedia junkie David Bowie's appearance on AOL was a highlight; he plugged his new CD-ROM but he also dished about himself and other musicians and gamely entertained lascivious questions from fans with handles like LambLips and VelvetKis. Asked one: ''David, to go back to creativity for a second. Can sexuality be separated out? It's such a big part of your music, isn't it?'' Answered Bowie: ''Are you referring to my big part? Or big parts in general?''

The Fun of Online Scratch Card Games
Lottery Tickets & Scratch Cards
Most countries or states that hold a national lottery sell scratch cards for money at the same kiosks or other locations where the national lottery tickets are sold. While a gambler may buy a lottery ticket where the drawing is only once or twice a week, the purchase of a Scratch Card might give him an instant win. Many charities also sell scratch cards as a fun fund-raising device. Scratch cards are not usually found in land-based casinos.

WASHINGTON - Last year turned out to be the worst year in more than a decade for West Nile virus, and as the summer approaches people are being warned to protect themselves.
West Nile virus comes only from mosquito bites. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention says West Nile virus killed 286 people nationwide in 2012, the deadliest year yet for the disease that first started showing up in the U.S. in 1999.
There were 5,674 cases of the mosquito-borne virus. Thirty of those were in Virginia, the most in that state since 2003.
The CDC says hotter weather in recent years, helping breed more mosquitoes, may have led to more cases. But Jorge Arias, an environmental health specialist and biologist with Fairfax County's Health Department, says the disease is hard to predict.
"Whether there is a trend that is getting worse or better, I don't think we can predict," he says.
Many people may get mild cases of West Nile without knowing they have the illness. It is particularly dangerous for people age 50 or older and those with weak immune systems.
There's no medication for West Nile virus. Arias says people just have to protect themselves.
"It's all a change of behavior which unfortunately is the hardest thing to convince people to do."
Here's are some tips to reduce exposure to mosquitoes:
- Wear long, loose and light-colored clothing. Keep covered up, especially at
dawn and dusk when mosquitoes are usually out.
- Use insect repellent products with picaridin or no more than 50 percent DEET
for adults and no more than 30 percent DEET for kids.
- Get rid of standing water in potted plant trays, buckets, toys, anything that
collects water.
- Eliminate standing water on tarps or flat roofs.
- Clean out birdbaths and wading pools once a week.
- Clean roof gutters and downspout screens regularly.
- Repair screens on doors and windows.
- Clear clogged drains.

Definitely pre-ordering the double indigo work shirt, but I'm a bit uncertain about the sizing.
Based on the posted measurements, I'd fit an XL perfectly....but that just seems way too big since I'm a medium/large in every other shirt I've ever purchased.
Wondering if anyone can comment. I'm 5'11, 180lbs and fit the following:
Medium AD in Wolf vs. Goat
Large in Iron Heart "sparkly western" (IHSH-59)
Large in Rag & Bone "yokohama"

My SKs seemed to bleed a lot but I didn't pre soak them or anything. The Dark Stantons are a different fabric so I can't say for sure. I'd just email Karl, he's been wearing them a lot this summer.

You can also see more if you look around their blog and tumblr, both of which are linked on their site.
Ohhh I see! I picked up both the work shirt and pants this time around. I love the color on the pants so much as it is though, I'm going to try to preserve their color! Can't wait till the weather cools down around here so i can get some wear on the shirt though.

Has anyone had issues with buttons coming off? I got my first pair of Stantons (black) and the top button just came off after 3 wears... These were not super tight either. Emailed both The Classroom and Rogue Territory, so hopefully this is resolved quickly.
I'm guessing this is not a common problem, otherwise people wouldn't be so enthusiastic about the brand.

The Toyota Prius is a full hybrid electric mid-size car developed and manufactured by the Toyota Motor Corporation. The second generation Prius had been completely redesigned as a midsize hatchback. The XW20 series represented the second generation of the Toyota Prius, replacing its XW10 predecessor. The United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and California Air Resources Board (CARB) also rate the Prius as among the cleanest vehicles sold in the United States based on smog forming and toxic emissions in 2008.[1]
In 2003, the Prius was completely redesigned as a mid-size liftback, sized between the Corolla and the Camry, with redistributed mechanical and interior space significantly increasing rear-seat legroom and luggage room. The 2004 Prius is even more environmentally-friendly than the 1997–2003 model (according to the EPA), and is 6 inches (150 mm) longer than the previous version.[2] Its more aerodynamic Kammback body balances length and wind resistance resulting in a drag coefficient ( Cd) of 0.26.[3] The development effort, led by chief engineer Shigeyuki Hori, led to 530 patents for the vehicle.[4]
The Prius uses an all-electric A/C compressor for cooling, an industry first,[5] and also adds an electric power steering system to further minimize engine belt-driven engine accessories. Combined with a smaller and lighter NiMH battery, the XW20 is more powerful and more efficient than the XW11.[6] In the U.S., the battery pack of the 2004 Prius is warranted for 100,000 miles (160,000 km) or 8 years.[7] The warranty for hybrid components in California and the seven Northeastern states that have adopted the stricter California emission control standards is 150,000 miles (240,000 km) or 10 years.
It is classified as a SULEV (Super Ultra Low Emissions Vehicle) and is certified by California Air Resources Board as an "Advanced Technology Partial Zero Emission Vehicle" (AT-PZEV).[8]
Among the Prius's options are Toyota's implementation of a Smart Key System (the feature can be user-deactivated), DVD navigation on the multi-function display, Vehicle Stability Control and Bluetooth for hands-free calling. A new Intelligent Parking Assist system was available in Japan and Europe since its launch.[9]
From 2005 to 2009, the second generation Prius had been built by FAW-Toyota in the city of Changchun for the Chinese market.[10] It was reported that a total of 2,152 Prius were sold in 2006 and 414 in 2007. The relatively low sales was blamed on high price, about US$15,000 higher than the equivalent in Japan or the U.S., caused by high duties on imported parts.[11] In early March 2008, Toyota cut the price of Prius by up to eight percent or US$3,000 to CN¥ 259,800 (US$36,500). It was thought that the sales dropped as a result of both a lack of acceptance and increased competition. The Honda Civic Hybrid was exported to China from 2007.[12]
Toyota's design and development efforts paid off during the 2005 European Car of the Year competition where the Prius won ahead of the Citroën C4 and the Ford Focus. The Prius and the Nissan Leaf are the only cars using drivewheel electric motors to have won this competition, where the usual winners are mainstream hatchbacks and sedans/saloons from major European manufacturers.
Research plug-insEdit
From 2006 to 2009 Toyota tested 126 Prius models in the U.S., Japan and Europe that had the NiMH battery replaced with a lithium-ion battery pack.[13]
In July 2007, Toyota received both Japanese and American governmental approval to begin testing plug-in hybrid models using a modified NiMH battery on public roads.[14] The first plug-in Prius in America went to South Carolina.[15] Researchers at the Advanced Power and Energy Program at the University of California, Irvine and the Institute of Transportation Studies at the University of California, Berkeley began testing two specially made Prius and analyzing driver behavior, study air quality and energy use.[16][17]
Model year changesEdit
In late 2005 (for the 2006 model year), Toyota introduced some minor cosmetic changes for the XW20, such as a slightly updated front-end, revised instruments, and repositioned rear seats.[18] Other changes comprised a higher-resolution liquid crystal display, as well as new optional features such as a backup camera, advanced air bags and an upgraded audio system with an auxiliary input.
In 2006 (2007 US model year) the Prius added side-curtain air bags (standard on all models.) A Touring Edition was introduced, with an elongated and larger rear spoiler as well as larger, sharper-pointed 7-spoke 16" magnesium wheels with plastic hubcap covers to protect them from scratches when parking against the curb. The Touring Edition also comes with a firmer European-style tuned suspension, standard high-intensity-discharge (HID) headlights and integrated (non-HID) fog lights.
In 2005, Toyota had to fix a software glitch that caused the Prius engine to enter "limp" mode with only-electric operation, following 68 stall complaints in the U.S. out of 160,000 worldwide sales.[19][20][21] In June 2006, Toyota also recalled about 170,000 Prius models from 2004–2006 due to a faulty intermediate shaft and sliding yoke in the power steering system.
Crash testing resultsEdit
U.S. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) crash testing of the 2004 US model year Prius yielded a five-star driver and four-star passenger rating in the frontal-collision test (out of five stars). Side crash results were four out of five stars for both front and rear seats. The car scored four out of five stars in rollover testing.[22]
Insurance Institute for Highway Safety crash tests score the Prius Good overall in frontal collisions and Good overall in side-impact collisions in models equipped with side airbags.[23] A Poor score is given to models without side airbags.[24] Side curtain and torso airbags became standard on 2007 American models.
In 2004, EuroNCAP tested the Prius. It earned the following ratings: Adult Occupant: Child Occupant: Pedestrian: .[25]
Official government fuel consumption dataEdit
United StatesEdit
In the U.S., the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) test results must be posted on new vehicle windows, and are the only fuel consumption figures that can be advertised. EPA testing procedures for all vehicles were revised in 2007 in an attempt to better match what the average driver would achieve.[26]
The following data is taken from the EPA figures for the Prius: 48 mpg-US (4.9 L/100 km; 58 mpg-imp) city driving, 45 mpg-US (5.2 L/100 km; 54 mpg-imp) highway driving, 46 mpg-US (5.1 L/100 km; 55 mpg-imp) combined.[27]
United KingdomEdit
The official UK fuel consumption data, provided by the Department for Transport, rates the Prius as: 56.5 mpg-imp (5.00 L/100 km; 47.0 mpg-US) urban, 67.3 mpg-imp (4.20 L/100 km; 56.0 mpg-US) extra urban and 65.7 mpg-imp (4.30 L/100 km; 54.7 mpg-US) combined.[28]
Air pollutionEdit
In the United States the EPA measures a vehicle's air-borne pollution based on hydrocarbons, nitrogen oxides, carbon monoxide, particulate matter and formaldehyde before assigning them a score.[29] In most states the XW20 Prius is rated Tier II Bin 3.[30] CARB also does its own emission scoring, the XW20 Prius meets AT-PZEV certification in California and states that adopted CARB emission rules.[31]
The second generation Prius tied with the MINI Cooper D as the fourth least CO2-emitting vehicles at 104 g/km, behind the Ford Fiesta Econetic at 98 g/km and the tied Volkswagen Polo 1.4 TDI/SEAT Ibiza 1.4 TDI at 99 g/km – it is the least CO2-emitting gasoline powered car, since the Ford and the Polo/Ibiza (both of which are city cars) run on diesel.[32]

MELVILLE, N.Y., April 29, 2013 – Offering faster black-and-white print speeds, shorter warm-up times, more standard system features, improved finishers and greater energy efficiency than the multifunction systems they replace, Canon U.S.A., Inc., a leader in digital imaging solutions, has introduced the imageRUNNER ADVANCE C9200 PRO Series for central reprographic departments (CRD) and light production environments and the imageRUNNER ADVANCE C7200 Series for high-volume office use.
The imageRUNNER ADVANCE C9280 PRO features output speeds of up to 80 pages-per-minute in black-and-white and up to 70 ppm in color, and the imageRUNNER ADVANCE C9270 PRO provides up to 70 ppm in black-and-white and up to 65 ppm in color. Both models offer the most advanced finishing and media support and highest levels of image quality within the imageRUNNER ADVANCE line to meet the needs of CRD environments, short-run print-for-pay businesses, and high volume offices looking to bring work in house.
The imageRUNNER ADVANCE C7270 and C7260 feature speeds of up to 70 ppm and up to 60 ppm in black-and-white and 60 ppm and up to 55 ppm in color, respectively, and will suit the needs of high-volume color office environments. These models can serve as an upgrade path for mid-volume MFPs with faster speeds, more robust paper handling and finishing, and more flexible media support. Both models give large departments within an enterprise the ability to handle higher print volumes quickly, helping to realize faster turnaround time and productivity efficiencies.
"Work environments in many industries have changed tremendously in recent years, with disruptive technologies changing the way we work in a fundamental way," said Sam Yoshida, vice president and general manager, Marketing, Business Imaging Solutions Group, Canon U.S.A. "Canon is addressing the need for streamlined workflows and optimized business processes with state-of-the-art devices that provide powerful performance and productivity."
The new models are built on Canon's next-generation imageRUNNER ADVANCE platform, designed to be the core of business communications where imaging technology, cloud connectivity, and mobile solutions converge. It builds upon the established design, workflow, control, performance and responsibility attributes of the previous generation, with new capabilities to further enhance the user experience, streamline document workflows, and merge technologies together to optimize business processes. Some of the new features and capabilities include:
· Shorter warm-up times: The Induction Heat-RAPID fusing system reduces warm-up time to approximately 31 seconds from sleep mode compared to up to six minutes for the previous models. In "Quick Startup Mode" it only takes seven seconds from turning on the main power until the key operation on the touch panel display becomes available.
· Improved energy efficiency: The combination of fusing technologies and pQ toner help lower overall energy consumption by minimizing power requirements and reducing energy use during warm-up and standby modes. All models achieve best-in-class Total Energy Consumption (TEC) ratings, meet ENERGY STAR® standards, and have received an EPEAT® Gold rating (EPEAT is the definitive global registry for greener electronics).
· Enhanced security: A Hard Disk Drive Erase function, previously only available as an option, is standard on the new models. It protects sensitive information by overwriting latent images after each task. An HDD Lock function, also a new standard feature, protects data stored in the HDD from being accessed by a PC after removing it from the device. IPsec, another previously optional feature that's now standard, protects data that crosses through the network.
· Improved image quality: Canon's propriety ZIMA chip and Dot-Screen technology, which until now were only available on the company's imagePRESS line of digital production presses, allows for smoother and higher-quality copy reproduction of output for general business documents (text/photo) and contributes to increased smoothness in highlights.
· Flexible in-line finishing options: A wide variety of finishing devices are now available to help improve productivity, including a staple finisher, booklet finisher, 2/3-hole punch, and insertion/folding options for all of the new models, plus a professional puncher, booklet trimmer, and folding unit for the imageRUNNER ADVANCE C9280 PRO/C9270 PRO.
The imageRUNNER ADVANCE C9280 PRO/C9270 PRO and imageRUNNER ADVANCE C7270/C7260 models are available through Canon authorized dealers at manufacturer's suggested retail prices of $52,500, $42,000, $36,750 and $29,400 respectively*. More information on these models and the entire next-generation imageRUNNER ADVANCE platform can be found at www.usa.canon.com/SimplyAdvanced.

Foot Pad Disease in Dogs
David Tayman D.V.M.
VCA Columbia Animal Hospital's
There are several known causes of cracked foot pads and unfortunately unknown reasons of this disorder. If a dog chews its paws, it may be walking in or on a chemical that's irritating its feet. Rug shampoos, floor cleaners, or garden sprays, for example, can irritate the paws of some dogs. The sore and inflamed paws that result may prompt the animal to chew its feet, aggravating the existing irritation and causing pad cracking. Some other possibilities are that the dog may be having an allergic reaction to a substance it breathes or eats, a chronic yeast infection similar to athletes foot, a nutritional zinc deficiency, or autoimmune disease. A veterinarian can help identify possible culprits and suggest ways to eliminate the problem.
Yeast infections may be diagnosed by the evaluation of skin smears taken of the paw. This condition is treated by the use of antifungal medications.
Zinc deficiencies may be diagnosed through history, clinical signs, skin biopsy, breed predisposition, diet, and age. In rapidly growing dogs, either feeding a diet high in cereal or calcium may produce this disease. Breeds reported to have this disease are Great Danes, Dobermans, Beagles, Shepherds, German Short Haired Pointers, and Poodles. Certain breeds such as the Husky or Malamute may have a decreased absorption of zinc through the digestive tract.
Allergy testing through a blood sample or skin testing is also available to assist us in treating your pet. Your veterinarian will then recommend if indicated allergy injections to stimulate your pet's immune system.
Another possibility is nasodigital hyperkeratosis - an ailment affecting either the nose or foot pads (or both) of older dogs. In hyperkeratosis, keratin - the tough, fibrous outer covering of foot pads - grows excessively. Often, the hard, cracked pads appear to have "keratin feathers" around their edges. A vet can diagnose this ailment by analyzing a section of pad tissue. Although hyperkeratosis can't be cured, it can be controlled. The veterinarian can carefully trim excessive keratin and instruct the owner on techniques to hydrate the pads, retarding excessive keratin growth. One such technique is to soak the pads each day in a 50 percent propylene-glycol solution over a period of several days.
Lastly, an animal can suffer from an auto-immune disease of the skin (pemphigus), in which the immune system goes haywire and mistakes skin cells for enemy invaders. In the most common type of pemphigus, pus-filled sores - which eventually break and form crusts - develop on the foot pads, bridge of the nose, and ears. Again, a vet can test for pemphigus by analyzing a sample of the affected skin. If pemphigus is the culprit, the veterinarian may treat it with immune-suppressing drugs.

Obamacare Deadline Causes Rush
DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) -- Workers at hospitals and other organizations paid to help people sign up for insurance in Iowa are inundated with requests on the last day of registration under the national health care reform law.
At Genesis Health System in Davenport, two staff members trained as navigators have had full schedules for two weeks.
Visiting Nurse Services of Iowa and Planned Parenthood, both helping people in the Des Moines area, have had dozens of callers Monday seeking help to get in under the deadline.
The government says anyone in the federal system by the end of Monday will be allowed to complete the process.
In West Des Moines, the nonprofit insurance provider CoOportunity Health has registered 65,000 customers in Iowa and Nebraska, three to four times more than the company had expected.

"One more example of America's deteriorating air travel
system." That's how the Travel Industry Association summarized
Tuesday's massive breakdown in the nation's air traffic control
network, after a software glitch essentially closed one of two FAA
centers that process instrument flight plan information.
As ANN reported, the glitch caused a
communications link to be severed between FAA facilities in
Hampton, GA and Salt Lake City that handle IFR flight plans. The
problem shut down the Hampton facility, and overwhelmed personnel
in Utah who were forced to do their best to handle all flight plans
filed by pilots throughout the lower 48 states.
The end result? According to the FAA, 646 flights were delayed
on the ground, as crews waited for their IFR clearances... with
many more downline flights similarly delayed. At one point, the
agency stopped accepting new flight plans completely -- and the
FAA's Web site showing the status of flights was a sea of red, with
three dozen airports showing delays and an advisory for passengers
to check their departure airports for more information.
The communications breakdown even caused some problems for
flights already in the air -- contrary to earlier FAA statements --
though officials stressed there was never a safety problem.
The Associated Press reports most of the delays had worked
through the system by Wednesday morning, with flights largely back
on schedule but for weather issues in the eastern US. "It usually
takes a while to be quite honest," said FAA spokeswoman Diane
Spitaliere, adding the agency is investigating what went wrong.
Of course, an occasional glitch is to be expected... but there's
no reason to believe such a problem -- or one even worse -- won't
happen again, for the simple reason that it's happened so many
times before. (If you doubt that, do a search on ANN for "FAA
glitch," and start reading. Not all the stories that come up are
related to problems at FAA centers, but most of them are --
In fact, the Hampton facility suffered what the FAA stressed was
an "unrelated" hardware failure on August 21, that also led to
problems processing flight plans. At least 134 flights were delayed
due to that error.
Quick to recognize an opportunity to tap into voter frustration,
Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama and his Republican
counterpart, John McCain, each issued separate statements Tuesday
on the matter. McCain said the problem "once again highlights the
need to reform and repair a broken system," while Obama said
"airline passengers are sick and tired of delays and
The FAA has no reason to disagree... especially as the agency
has said repeatedly it needs funding to start much-needed upgrades
to the nation's aging air traffic infrastructure, to better handle
the increased volume of air traffic.
Funding the FAA says it needs to start doing that
stalled in the Senate earlier this year, as
most ANN readers are well aware.
