Sick of BRIC? ETF Alternatives, Part 1
This is part one of a two-part series on BRIC alternatives.
NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- For many ETF investors, the term "emerging market" brings to mind BRIC funds like iShares MSCI BRIC (BKF), Claymore/BNY BRIC (EEB) and SPDR S&P BRIC 40 (BIK).
While the BRIC combination of Brazil, Russia, India and China has long been the gold standard of emerging-market investing, other contenders are beginning to enter the field.
Single-country ETFs are allowing investors new access to emerging economies around the globe. In addition to still-strong Russia, Vietnam, Thailand, Turkey and South Korea also provide growth opportunities for the risk-tolerant investor.
In this two-part series, we will examine these single-country funds and their potential for the ETF investor. Today we will focus on Market Vectors Russia (RSX) and Market Vectors Vietnam (VNM).
Market Vectors RussiaThis fund is Russia, by itself. Investors should see this country, and this fund, as an energy play. While OPEC nations battle about production cuts, Russia surpassed Saudi Arabia in crude oil production during the second quarter of 2009. During this period, daily exports from Russia grew to 7.4 million barrels while Saudi shipments fell by 7 million per day. RSX is a good play for investors who want to take advantage of Russia's oil opportunities. RSX comprisies publicly traded companies that are domiciled in Russia and traded in Russia and/or on leading global exchanges. The largest sector represented in the fund's portfolio is oil and gas, with a 42.6% allocation. Year to date, RSX is up more than 92%. As Russia battles the corruption that has plagued its economy, this fund may have even more room to run.
Market Vectors VietnamVietnam may have the potential to be the next China, and the global supply chain is already several years into a shift from China to Vietnam. As China's economy continues to grow, Vietnam has stepped in as the new destination for the type of low-cost manufacturing that helped to make China so successful. (See

The Fabric of the Cosmos "What Is Space?"Series Website »
Episode Guide »
Accompany physicist and acclaimed author Brian Greene on a mind-bending reality check and journey to the frontiers of physics to see how scientists are piecing together the most complete picture yet of space, time and the universe. Space. It separates you from me, one galaxy from the next and atoms from each other. It is everywhere in the universe. But to most of us, space is nothing, an empty void. Well, it turns out space is not what it seems. From the passenger seat of a New York cab driving near the speed of light to a pool hall where billiard tables do fantastical things, Greene reveals space as a dynamic fabric that can stretch, twist, warp and ripple under the influence of gravity. Stranger still is a newly discovered ingredient of space that actually makes up 70% of the universe. Physicists call it dark energy because while they know it's out there, driving space to expand ever more quickly, they have no idea what it is. Probing space on the smallest scales only makes the mysteries multiply down there; things are going on that physicists today can barely fathom. To top it off, some of the strangest places in space, black holes, have led scientists to propose that like the hologram on your credit card, space may just be a projection of a deeper two-dimensional reality, taking place on a distant surface that surrounds us. Space, far from being empty, is filled with some of the deepest mysteries of our times.

$2 DIY Felt iPad Case Courtesy of IKEA
October 11th, 2011
iPad cases are a dime a dozen, but any case that costs $2 is definitely worth a look, especially when it looks like this and can be easily made with some IKEA stuff. This felt iPad case was conceived by Sah-Rah and I have to say that it looks really nice.
While her hack calls for a couple of 99¢ IKEA Nedda chair pads, any bits of felt will do. She also used an old scarf for the liner, which is important to keep your tablet pristine.
All that's left is to cut out the necessary pieces to just slightly larger than your tablet, then sew in the liner. Once that's done, just do the sew the felt layers together on three sides, and you're done.

"I love this recipe. It is so delicious. I don't generally make them into egg rolls. I just eat the filling as is. When I do make them into egg rolls I bake them instead of frying them and they are crispy and delicious that way as well."
"Good cookie, but to me for them to be a true oatmeal cookie they need to have cinnamon. So if you are putting raisins in them add a teaspoon or two of cinnamon. If you putting chocolate chips in them, leave as is."
"This was a simple, delicious recipe. Normally I think fruit crisps are way too sweet, but this was perfect. Just a hint of sweetness. I loved it. I used 3lbs of fresh peaches and about 3cups of fresh blueberries. I also did one and half times the topping, just because my family loves the crunchy topping and I added twice as many pecans, again, jus..."
"Tastes great. I make this anytime we have tacos, fajitas etc. Do yummy."
"Excellent seasoning."
"I love this bread. It is so light and fluffy and bakes up wonderfully!"
"I combined this recipe with the recipe Honey-Grilled Pork Loin. It came out wonderful and I would recommend doing it."
"This recipe is awesome. My family just loves it. As a little tweak I like to stuff it with the bacon filling from the recipe Grilled Pork Loin with Bacon. I slow cooked mine on my gas grill on the rotissery. I also left out the sesame oil in the glaze. My sister said it tasted like burnt popcorn. So it's really good with out it."
"This recipe was delicious. Not too spicy at all! Tasted just like the one at Olive Garden. The texture of mine turned out a little gritty. Maybe it was just me though, still an awesome recipe though that I have made several times already."
"These were super good. Everyone in my family said they were the best burgers they have had."

Social Security Sends Early Payments Ahead of Earl
September 1, 2010 - 3:44 PMThe Social Security Administration is delivering checks a day early to hundreds of thousands of East Coast residents to make sure the money beats Hurricane Earl's arrival.
Social Security Commissioner Michael Astrue said Wednesday that benefit checks will be delivered Thursday to about 737,000 beneficiaries in 10 states from the Carolinas to Massachusetts and Washington, D.C.
The National Hurricane Center says Hurricane Earl could make landfall on North Carolina's Outer Banks as a Category 3 storm late Thursday or early Friday. Hurricane-force winds also could reach New York's Long Island and Cape Cod in Massachusetts.

Stereoscopic Player 2.0.4 supports the EUROLITE USB-DMX512-PRO interface.
This guide explains how to add subtitles to stereoscopic videos and play them
in Stereoscopic Player. At the
moment, stereoscopic subtitles work for
DivX or
Xvid movies in over/under
format only, support for other codecs and formats is planned for future versions
of Stereoscopic Player. Currently, subtitles are not handled by the player
itself, but by a third party decoder, the ffdshow MPEG-4 Video Decoder.
Therefore, subtitled playback requires the use of this decoder instead of the
original DivX or Xvid decoder. The following chapter explains all
necessary configuration steps in Stereoscopic Player.
First you have to download and install the
MPEG-4 Video Decoder. Make sure to install the linked or a newer version,
else stereoscopic subtitles are not supported. Afterwards, run Stereoscopic
Player and open the decoder configuration page (File->Settings->Decoders).
Note: At least version 0.9 of Stereoscopic Player is required!
Open the DivX- or Xvid-Decoder folder, depending on the codec
your subtitled videos use, select the DivX Decoder Filter or Xvid
MPEG-4 Video Decoder and click Delete. Select the folder, which
should be empty now and press the Add button.
Select ffdshow MPEG-4 Video Decoder from this list and click OK.
Now, Stereoscopic Player is configured to use ffdshow instead of the
original DivX decoder (or Xvid decoder). If you want to use the original
decoders later on, just delete the ffdshow MPEG-4 Video Decoder and add
the original decoders.
Open your stereoscopic video file. The subtitle file should be located in the
same folder and must have the same filename (apart from the file extension).
After the video file has been loaded, click File->Video Properties->Filters.
If all of the above steps were executed properly, the ffdshow MPEG-4 Video
Decoder should show up on the list. Select it and click Details.
To enable stereoscopic subtitles, enable both the Subtitles and
Stereoscopic checkboxes and choose the preferred parallax. For most movies,
a value of 2 (for over/under, right image on top layout) or -2 (over/under, left
image on top) works well. You might also need to change the font if the default
font doesn't contain all necessary characters for your language.
There are many subtitle formats for 2D videos but non for 3D videos. The
recommended format for stereoscopic subtitles is the *.sub format, although it
does not offer stereoscopic features either. *.sub files are plain ANSI text
files and can be edited with any text edit, e.g. Windows Notepad. Specialized
subtitle editors, for example
Subtitle Workshop or one of the many other tools available simplify subtitle
authoring. The following sample illustrate what a *.sub files looks like:
[TITLE]Peter's Movie
[AUTHOR]Peter Wimmer
This is the first subtitle.
This is the second subtitle.
This is the third subtitle.

Optional: You can enter notes about this product below. If you do not wish to add notes, click the 'Add' button.
Take the "ointment" portion of this product's name seriously, because it absolutely has that texture. Essentially, this is a souped-up version of plain Vaseline, which isn't surprising given that petrolatum is the first ingredient, and that's what Vaseline is).
This product has a rich, emollient texture that can be helpful for very dry skin. Although it does contain vitamin C and other helpful ingredients, the formula also has drawbacks that make it a problem for use around the eyes. Chief among them are the fragrant plant extracts it contains, namely lime, orange, and grapefruit. Although these are natural sources of vitamin C when eaten, they aren't when applied topically. Even more significantly, they all contain irritating components that aren't good for skin, especially around the eyes.
As for the "Hyaluronic 1000" portion of the name, Rapid Transport contains sodium hyaluronate (the salt form of hyaluronic acid), which is a good ingredient, but the "1000" portion of the name is misleading because it makes it seem as if a high quantity or a high quality of the ingredient is included, neither of which appears to be the case. Still, without the fragrant ingredients, this would've been a good, extra-rich moisturizer to consider, even though a specific product labeled as an eye cream for the eye area isn't necessary (see More Info for details).
More Info:
Most eye creams aren't necessary. That's either because they are poorly formulated, contain nothing special for the eye area, or come in packaging that won't keep key ingredients stable. Just because the product is labeled as an eye cream doesn't mean it's good for your eye area; in fact, many can actually make matters worse.
There is much you can do to improve signs of aging around your eyes. Any product loaded with antioxidants, skin-repairing ingredients, skin-lightening ingredients, anti-inflammatory ingredients, and effective emollients will work wonders and those ingredients don't have to come from a product labeled as an eye cream.
You would be shocked how many eye creams lack even the most basic ingredients to help skin. For example, most eye creams don't contain sunscreen. During the day that is a serious problem because it leaves the skin around your eyes vulnerable to sun damage and this absolutely will make dark circles, puffiness, and wrinkles worse!
Whatever product you put around your eye area, regardless of what it is labeled, must be well formulated and appropriate for the skin type around your eyes! That may mean you need an eye cream, but you may also do just as well applying your regular facial moisturizer around your eyes.
Don't let your eyes give away your true age! Adrienne's super moisturizing beauty treatment helps give the delicate eye area a temporary "plumped up" youthful look. You'll soon be viewing this golden tube as your BBF (best beauty friend).
Petrolatum, Aluminum Starch Octenylsuccinate, Cetearyl Alcohol, Ceteareth-20, Cetyl Alcohol, Beeswax, Royal Jelly Extract, Magnesium Ascorbyl Phosphate, Sodium Hyaluronate, Royal Jelly Powder, Glycine Soja (Soybean) Protein, Propolis Extract, Pollen Extract, Honey, Citrus Aurantifolia (Lime) Fruit Extract, Citrus Aurantium Dulcis (Orange) Flower Extract, Citrus Aurantium Dulcis (Orange) Fruit Extract, Citrus Grandis (Grapefruit) Fruit Extract, Citrus Aurantium Amara (Bitter Orange) Flower Wax, Citrus Medica Limonum (Lemon) Fruit Extract, Hydrolyzed Collagen, Hydrolyzed Elastin, Carthamus Tinctorius (Safflower) Seed Oil, Helianthus Annuus (Sunflower) Seed Oil, Cyclomethicone, PEG/PPG-18/18 Dimethicone, Butylparaben, Isobutylparaben, Isopropylparaben
Signature Club A is a line of skin care and makeup sold exclusively on the Home Shopping Network (HSN). The woman behind this brand, Adrien Arpel, has been involved in the world of cosmetics for over 40 years. Back in the 1970s she owned a namesake skin-care and makeup company sold in department stores.
Adrien Arpel sold her namesake line to a large corporation, but several years later, she had a falling-out with them. As a result of this falling out, she was prevented from attaching her name to another brand, so she began to market herself and her new products under the name "Adrienne." These products are now being sold under the brand Signature Club A.
As was true when Paula first reviewed Adrien Arpel's brand in the 1980s, there are more disappointments then strengths. This is not a line to turn to for anti-aging formulas despite the myriad options available, especially considering Signature Club A offers only one sunscreen. Dozens of anti-aging products and only one sunscreen should be illegal, but sadly it isn't, even though your skin will suffer as a result! Abundant research makes it incontrovertibly clear that you can't fight wrinkles, brown spots, and sagging skin without daily (and we do mean daily) use of a sunscreen designed for your skin type. And it should be loaded with antioxidants for even greater benefits.
Beyond skin care, the key to looking younger longer is to consider the corrective cosmetic procedures (Botox, dermal fillers, laser treatments) you feel comfortable having done. Indeed, the combination of a brilliant skin-care routine with the right cosmetic procedures can make a strikingly positive difference.
Whether you're intrigued by Signature Club A's skin care or makeup, there are only a handful of products to consider. This line is known for its large makeup kits. Although these may seem like a great deal, they aren't because most contain so-so products that aren't nearly as good as what many brands at the drugstore offer. They definitely don't have anything over the e.l.f. brand, which costs far less. Note that Adrienne's on-air presentations often spotlight makeup kits. These may seem like a great value, but they're not if the products are mediocre (most of them are) which means you'll be less likely to use them often, if at all.
Bottom line: You're not missing out on some anti-aging miracle or secret formula if you skip this line altogether. The curious should shop carefully, and follow our recommendations on what to avoid so you can be sure you're getting the best of what Signature Club A has to offer.

Archive for the 'Hurst/Olds' tag
Hemmings Find of the Day – 1968 Hurst/Olds
Ah, the executive's hot rod. With just 515 built, the 1968 Hurst/Olds is often considered the most desirable of those Oldsmobiles to get the Doc Watson treatment, and this particular 1968 Hurst/Olds for sale on Hemmings.com looks to be a well-preserved Southern example. From the seller's description:
I'm the 4th and 6th owner of this car and have the titles to prove it. First time advertised in 28 years. Excellent body. Excellent original interior with one small tear in driver's seat. Runs well. 88,700 original miles. Numbers matching drivetrain. PS, PB, Rear Defogger, AM/FM, Transistorized ignition, comes with a good collection of NOS and OEM parts such as additional set of red fender wells, two NOS sets of tailpipes with bugles, additional OAI air cleaner, NOS set of wheel well moldings, additional Rally pack gauges, etc, etc. Documentation includes most all original articles, literature, as well as an original set of the B/W promo pictures.
See more Oldsmobiles for sale on Hemmings.com.
Air to compare
While researching Hurst/Oldses for a story in Hemmings Muscle Machines recently, I came across the above photo of a prototype 1969 Hurst/Olds's hoodscoop, which included an arrow and some lettering that would look very familiar to any AMC nut. Fortunately, at Musclepalooza XI this past weekend, we had a couple SC/Ramblers to compare:
So not exact, but close. Which, really, one would expect, considering Hurst had a hand in both the 1969 Hurst/Olds and the 1969 SC/Rambler. I've yet to come across any back story on the Hurst/Olds prototype, however, especially on why it didn't make production with that lettering. If anybody knows those details, we'd love to hear them.
cruise-in overload: and we're just gettin' started
If we indeed had 89 cars, a few eluded my lens. If you're still on dial-up, brush up on your Heimlich, 'cause your computer's gonna choke:
Breaking: Vista Cruiser pace car
That's nice, Dan. Now why don't you go off and play with your little friends for a while while the grownups talk?
You don't have to go any farther than your own August 2004 issue of Muscle Machines. The year was 1972, and as race time approached, no manufacturer had ponied up for the Indy 500 Pace Car. People got worried.
So Hurst stepped into the void, creating their first Hurst/Olds since 1969.
Craig Fitzgerald wrote: "The H/Os were assembled just like any other Oldsmobile…at the Lansing, Michigan, plant. Specially ordered by the Hurst Corporation in Westminster, Pennsylvania, the Vista Cruiser was originally fitted with the cheapest Rocket 350-cu.in. V-8 available. As soon as the wrench-men in Pennsylvania got hold of it, they were going to replace it with a warmed-over 455-cu.in. V-8, anyway. All the cars were sprayed 100 percent Cameo White, and…received a "Special Car Order" requesting that it be built with the W-25 dual-intake "Force Air" fiberglass hood. In addition, all hood stripes were to be deleted, as well as all body side moldings, and the woodgrain vinyl appliqué standard on Vista Cruisers.
According to Harroun's documentation, the Vista Cruiser got the same 455-cubic-inch treatment as the convertibles that were going to be used for track duty. The car uses a 1972 FA block, Oldsmobile C-code cylinder heads from a 1967 to 1969 455, 10.5:1 pistons, the large-capacity oil pan with special baffles from the front-drive Toronado, and Corvette ignition points.
At Hurst, the convertibles and Vista Cruisers were emblazoned with the "Official Pace Car" graphics, Indianapolis Motor Speedway logos and huge Hurst/Olds logos on their pronounced haunches. The wagon also got an additional Hurst/Olds logo slapped on the tailgate. The Cameo White and gold color combination was similar to that of the 1969 Hurst/Olds, but instead of using white paint, the cars featured 3M gold retro-reflective "Laser" stripes that gave a haunting glow when lights were shone on them at night."

I WILL OBEY EDWARD; Surprise as Sophie chooses old-fashioned marriage vows.
Her decision to make the pledge was revealed by the Bishop of Norwich who is to conduct the wedding service.
The disclosure that high-powered career woman Sophie, 34, has chosen to "obey" stunned royal watchers.
They expected her to drop the word from her vows, as Diana did when she wed Prince Charles in 1981.
The Right Rev Peter Nott, 65, explained why Sophie, who runs a PR business, chose the traditional wording.
"It is a mistaken assumption that when a bride says she will obey it means she is going to be subservient," he said.
"It is to do with trust, and with listening, and to recognise that in a family you have different functions.
"There are times when the husband will rightly obey the wife because she knows better and is the lead in that area.
"The partnership is equal and leadership in a good marriage always shifts. I think 'obey' means, 'I trust you ultimately to make decisions that are for the good of the family'. It's no big deal."
Mr Nott, who likes to be known as Bishop Peter, says he has treated Sophie and Edward, 35, like any other couple by giving them lengthy lessons to prepare them for married life.
"I think preparation for marriage is enormously important," he said.
He would not say who will be best man for the June 19 wedding. But he hinted Charles and Andrew will share the job.
The bishop was chosen to conduct the wedding at St George's Chapel, Windsor, instead of the Archbishop of Canterbury, George Carey,because of his long friendship with Edward. He has known the prince since 1985. He first met Sophie five years ago at a Sandringham house party. "I remember saying to my wife, Betty, that I'd met Edward's girlfriend and that she was such a delightful person," he said. He first discussed marriage plans with the couple in January when they made a a private visit to Norwich Cathedral.
"We chatted about the wedding, but at that stage, I never dreamt I'd be involved," he said.
"A couple of days later, Edward phoned and said, 'Would you be free to marry us?' Of course, I said yes, but I was quite taken aback."
But he did tell them they would have to attend wedding preparation sessions. So far, there have been four sessions, each lasting up to three hours.
"They have given masses of time to it, which for me is a joy," said the bishop.
"In the last few months, I have seen a lot of them. They are alike in many respects.
"They are lovely people, with a great sense of warmth, kindness, humanity and humour."
The bishop will travel to Windsor next week on Thursday, for wedding rehearsals. As for the big day, he said: "I will be doing nothing different from what I have done at hundreds of other weddings.
"I shall go and meet the bride and spend a moment or two calming her down.
"But she may not need it. It may be that she will be calming me down."
A Buckingham Palace spokesman said: "We cannot comment on any interview given by an individual."

Recently I obtained a case of Eastern Block 7.62x39mm ammo to shoot in my Mini 30. Because of their hard primers I have had a lot of misfires. I ordered a Wolff XS hammer spring in order fix this problem, but am now concerned the extra spring power will break the firing pin on the Mini 30. Does anybody have experience with breaking the firing pin on a Mini due to hard primers?
Any ideas would be welcomed.
Good shooting to you, dgang

Just as a note. If anyone was planning to get the Holidays Rule Album, I'm pretty sure Starbucks will be handing out the whole album in 4 track installments as gifts over the next six weeks. I just compared with what I received from them last week and it is the same album art and all. You even still have until the 27th to get the first 4 tracks.

Lewis does not have that dream anymore. Death, which used to loiter outside his cell door like an impatient old friend, has moved on to claim some other poor soul. For the first time in a long time, Andre Anthony Lewis does not have the precise date of his demise penciled on some executioner's calendar. Today he knows there will be a tomorrow and a day after--a day when he might learn a skill he could use in the real world, should he ever be given the chance to walk out of prison.
"And hopefully one day I can talk to youngsters heading down the wrong way and explain what I've been through and detour them," Lewis says now, his 6-foot-4, 250-pound frame squeezed into a tiny cell at the Allred Unit of the Texas Department of Criminal Justice, located just outside Wichita Falls in Iowa Park. The voice, soft and reflective, does not match the vision of this hulk clad in a prisoner's white jumpsuit. Some of the guards have taken to calling Lewis "The Green Mile," because he reminds them of the gentle giant from that movie.
Soon he will begin taking vocational classes, perhaps something to do with bricklaying or woodwork, something to make him useful in a world that once regarded him as useless. He is slowly adjusting to life off Death Row. He now has a cellmate, takes his meals outside his cell and watches television or plays checkers in a communal break room with other inmates. During his 16 years in the Ellis Unit and then the Polunsky Unit, he was isolated, confined to his cell for 23 hours a day. When a guard came to fetch him, Lewis was always sure it was to tell him that today was the day he was going to die. Now, someone comes to retrieve him three times a day for three-hour stretches in the yard or the TV room. Life is better now, because at least it's a life.
"At least now I have something to look forward to--my freedom," he says. "And I want to help others from heading down the wrong road." Few would make better tour guides than Lewis. He knows the path by heart.
On February 18, 1993, Lewis was supposed to die, and it was almost certain he would. His attorneys had little hope; Lewis, none at all. Six years after a Dallas County jury had sentenced him to die, Lewis was a mere eight hours from becoming the 55th life taken by the state since 1973, when a revision to the Texas Penal Code allowed for executions to resume in the state--after the U.S. Supreme Court had ruled them unconstitutional just one year earlier.
Lewis, now 38, had been convicted of capital murder for killing a 17-year-old named Matt McKay during the botched November 20, 1985, hold-up of a Carrollton convenience store. Of his guilt, there is no doubt: The crime, set up by Lewis' uncle, had been captured on black-and-white surveillance video. Lewis had been in trouble before for stealing cars and breaking into buildings, and in 1985 he was sentenced to seven years' probation for burglary and car robbery. The shooting, though, was the only time he'd done anything violent. Problem was, it doesn't get much more violent than killing a kid.
Lewis, then 19, and his half-brother Tommie Ronnie Berry, carrying loaded guns their uncle had given them, walked into the PDQ Texaco Food Mart on Stemmons Freeway pretending to be customers. Berry asked for a restroom key; Lewis, a pack of cigarettes. The clerk asked if they wanted anything else. Yeah, Lewis told her. All the money in the drawer. "Get on the floor, bitch," he ordered, in monotone voice flattened by cocaine and booze. Lewis also wanted what was in the safe, but the clerk said she didn't know how to open it. "You can open the safe, or you're going to be the killed one!"
Berry came over to help his half-brother, but they fumbled around so long that customers, including two men in their late teens, began filing into the store. The two men, Dave Masters and Matt McKay, had come from Houston and were heading home to Oklahoma City. Lewis pretended to be a clerk, but in his addled state he couldn't maintain the ruse for long. Brandishing the gun, he ordered the customers to hit the ground, and all complied save for McKay, who appears on the videotape to be oblivious to the commotion around him. Lewis shouted at McKay, then finally lost his temper and pulled the trigger, firing a single bullet into his gut. A red stain spread across his white shirt. He asked his friend Dave, "I'm dying, aren't I?" On the tape, Lewis appeared to kick McKay.

Device may be able to detect disease from a single drop of blood
Scientists at the New Jersey Institute of Technology are overseeing the creation of a prototype chip that may enable doctors to detect the presence of diseases or viruses from just one drop of blood. The device uses carbon nanotubes to quickly detect single cells with the potential to maintain a high degree of spatial resolution. And the best part about this device? It's completely non-invasive.
The device utilizes complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS) technologies for fabrication. This makes it easily scalable, even down to a few nanometers. Nanotubes are deposited using electrophoresis, which disperses particles relative to a fluid under the influence of a spatially uniform electric field. This maintains compatibility with the CMOS. The devices are then spaced by six microns — about the same size or smaller than a single cell.
The chip works like this: A tiny drop of blood is placed on the active area of the device which measures the cells' electrical properties. As electrical properties between cell types can vary, this may help in determining the presence of virus or disease in the sample. Initially, the researchers evaluated three different types of cells using different probes.
According to Reginald Farrow, one of the scientists involved in the project:
"It was an exploratory study and we don't want to say that we have a signature. What we do say here is that these cells differ based on electrical properties. Establishing a signature, however, will take time, although we know that the distribution of electrical charges in a healthy cell changes markedly when it becomes sick."
Originally, this research was funded by the military as a way to identify biological warfare agents. However, Farrow believes that the use of such a device can go much further and could detect viruses, bacteria and possibly even cancer. Also, the positioning of the carbon nanotubes in this research could lead to the creation of things like an artificial pancreas, three-dimensional electronic circuits and nanoscale fuel cells.

The Nike Power UV crew has a pretty simple but classy design. I really like the oblique stripes on the side. The color combinations are a success, especially with the Nike shorts (that usually match the stripes; in that case, the light armory blue shorts). I usually wear large, but went for medium size for a snugger fit (since I wear these shirts mostly at the gym).

Faruqi & Faruqi, LLP Announces Investigation Of Columbia Laboratories Inc.
NEW YORK, Feb. 9, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Faruqi & Faruqi, LLP, a leading national securities law firm, is investigating potential securities fraud at Columbia Laboratories Inc. (" Columbia" or the "Company") (Nasdaq: CBRX).
(Logo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20120119/MM38856LOGO )
The investigation focuses on whether the Company and its executives violated federal securities laws by failing to disclose that: (1) the Company's PROCHIEVE product was not delivering desired results; (2) the Food & Drug Administration ("FDA") was unlikely to give approval to Columbia's PROCHIEVE product; and (3) contrary to Company representations, Columbia's future was not "very good" due to the efficacy issues with PROCHIEVE.Columbia's much touted product "PROCHIEVE" is a gel intended to prevent preterm births. On December 14, 2011, the Company issued a press release highlighting the purported results of clinical trials that showed that PROCHIEVE "significantly reduces the risk of preterm birth and neonatal morbidity." Following this announcement, Columbia's stock increased in price significantly. On January 17, 2012, however, the FDA released documents, including trial data, which evidenced PROCHIEVE's ineffectiveness. As a result, Columbia's stock price plunged by over 50%, to $1.10. Then, on January 20, 2012, the FDA Advisory Committee voted 13 to 4 against recommending PROCHIEVE, as the potential risks of the progesterone gel outweighed the benefits. As a result, Columbia's shares declined by an additional $0.874 per share to close at $0.706 per share on January 23, 2012.

Washington DC is a city of conflict, special interest and, for the journalists who work there, conflicts of interest.
The Listening Post previously reported on the US capital's penchant for a concept commonly referred to as the 'revolving door', the seamless transition from the world of politics to the world of media, and often back again.
Now, we bring you a feature on a potentially more worrying trend, that of the supposed 'cosy relationship' between government security and surveillance agencies, and the mainstream media that are meant to hold those very agencies to account.
Jeff Bezos, the tech billionaire who made his fortune with the Amazon corporation is not only the single largest stakeholder of that company, but since August 2013, the sole owner of The Washington Post, one of the oldest papers of record when it comes to politics in America.
Then in October last year, Amazon, a company that is all about data, won a $600m contract with the Central Intelligence Agency for cloud computing services.
For many in DC, namely an online initiative called RootsAction.org, this has set alarm bells ringing over whether this presents the Post with a conflict of interest when it comes to rigorously reporting on the country's most secretive agency.
Some say the paper that famously took down a president is a shadow of its former self, and that while the Post made its name speaking truth to power, it has now merely become a function of it. And it is by no means the only mainstream media organisation tarred by this brush.
As President Barack Obama recalibrates US government surveillance activities, Flo Phillips looks at The Washington Post, its recent coverage, and the implications of a potentially dangerous merger between the journalistic state and digital surveillance.

DALLAS (AP) – Nikola Pekovic scored 20 points before leaving with an injury and the short-handed Minnesota Timberwolves beat the Dallas Mavericks 90-82 Monday night.
Because of a rash of injuries, the Timberwolves dressed only 10 players. The 6-foot-11 Pekovic exited with 2:46 left in the third quarter with a sprained left ankle and didn't return.
Pekovic went 8 of 13 from the floor. Andrei Kirilenko and Alexey Shved each had 16 points for Minnesota.
Dallas coach Rick Carlisle was ejected after arguing a foul call with 5 minutes left. Assistant coach Jim O'Brien coached the team the rest of the way.
Darren Collison had 21 points and O.J. Mayo added 18 for the Mavericks, who lost their third straight.
