PhD candidate finally coaxes ALL the ketchup from a bottle
Serious problems call for serious people to solve them. So MIT PhD candidate Dave Smith must be one hell of a serious guy. He and a team have created a solution to the age-old problem of thick liquids getting stuck in bottles and jars, thanks to a new non-stick coating that works like a dream.
It turns out Smith and a team of mechanical engineers and nano-technologists at MIT hit upon the solution called LiquiGlide. It's described as a "structured liquid" that can be sprayed on. It adheres as a solid, but provides a liquid-like lubrication that tackles that tenacious ketchup.
In case you're wondering about the apparently huge leap from what you would assume MIT mechanical engineers and nano-technologists would normally do, to studying the insides of a ketchup bottle you are not alone.
LiquiGlide was originally intended for use on an industrial level for thing like gas or oil lines, or windshields. As it turns out, since it is a spray on application, it is much easier to prepare it for smaller scale projects — like ketchup bottles — while waiting for further industrial development.
Ok, now I get where the whole MIT research team came in. Gloriously flowing ketchup is just a side benefit of a more complex engineering task.
The only caveat to moving it from oil and gas line production to the ketchup factory is that the LiquiGlide had to be food safe. That means it had to be made from FDA approved substances.
Smith told CoEXIST: 'We had a limited amount of materials to pick from. I can't say what they are, but we've patented the hell out of it."
He and the team have been rewarded for their efforts as the product took gold in MIT's Entrepreneurship Competition and they are already in talks with bottle companies.
We pretty sure everyone will be happy when this product is ready for implementation. Gunky bottles are the source of frustration for everyone from customers, product manufacturers and restaurant owners. Smith estimates if the product is adopted it could save about one million tons of food from being thrown out.
Clearly Dave Smith is on to something pretty smart, even if he is something of a condiment ingénue. He said, "I didn't know about the tapping of the '57' until I started looking into this. It was all news to me."
Good that he and the team have cleared the whole problem up then.

It has been called the "data storm;" due to increased online video usage, the cloud, and mobile devices, bandwidth demand is increasing relentlessly, and operators are straining to keep up.
Research from Bell Labs suggests that from 2013 to 2017, operators will see a 550 percent increase in bandwidth demand due to the shift to cloud and a 720 percent increase in bandwidth to support IP video across fixed and mobile networks. This will result in a 320 percent increase in the amount of traffic in the core network.
"Telecom operators are starting to realize that simply increasing the line rate is no longer sufficient to control the costs associated with increasing bandwidth demands," noted David Stokes of Alcatel-Lucent in a recent TechZine article, Optical transport networks and bandwidth demand. In fact, we really are seeing exponential traffic growth as recent research from Bell Labs below shows expected traffic growth from 2013 to 2017.
Source: Alcatel-Lucent
As Stokes explains in a podcast on the subject, Optical transport networks (OTN) are increasingly being used to help meet this demand. OTN is a set of optical network elements connected by optical fiber links that provides transport, multiplexing, switching, management, supervision and survivability of optical channels carrying client signals.
A recent survey by Infonetics predicted that by 2016, 86 percent of respondents plan to use OTN switching in the core of their networks.
"OTN allows the photonic network to inherently support multiple protocols," notes Stokes. "Transport rates have been defined to maximize network utilization for a photonic network carrying many different service types."
The advantages of OTN for telecom operators are many, leading to an overall lower total cost of ownership for those that employ the technology.
Specifically, OTN enables better capacity utilization by eliminating stranded bandwidth and maximizing wavelength utilization. Through OTN, it is possible to add resiliency to legacy photonic networks where resiliency was previously not possible. Also, OTN can bring better service utilization and provisioning because OTN switching makes it easier for telecom providers to make service additions and changes.
"With optical transport networking, telecom operators can move to a single converged network capable of cost-effectively and efficiently transporting new and legacy services in a way that maximizes network utilization," noted Stokes.
Given that demand is not expected to slow down any time soon, the converged network enabled by OTN cannot come quickly enough.]]>
Optical network operators have already made the move to 100G. But skyrocketing bandwidth demand means many are already pondering what's next. With a 200G optical solution hitting the market, you probably have questions about when to move to 200G optical – and what you need to know when you make that move.
200G Optical: Move to Metro Creates Demand
If you are like most optical network operators, you are looking to move content closer to your end users. This is a good option to meet skyrocketing demand and relieve some of the pressure on today's networks. While this is a practical solution, it will have consequences — dramatically shifting traffic from the optical core to the metro network.
As a result, you will need to bring long haul-type efficiencies to your metro. Agility, scalability, and software configurability will become increasingly critical.
Suddenly the question isn't whether the market will go beyond 100G, but how soon. The 100G networks that were practically unimaginable four years ago already appear to have a finite shelf life.
Beyond 100G: What's Next
When transitioning beyond 100G, there are a few considerations. Now that a 200G solution is commercially available and deployed by some operators, it's an interesting option to consider. It gives you an immediate doubling in your capacity – so it's very attractive purely to accommodate demand when and as you need it. But what are some of the other key ingredients you will want to see in your solution? It's simple. You will want your solution to be:
And of course, it needs to be cost-efficient in order to support your return on investment.
200G Optical Networks: Critical Features
Let's take a look at why each of these ingredients is so critical to deploying a successful 200G optical solution.
Today network operators are looking for solutions that optimize IP and optical networking equipment to reduce layers and complexity. They want one platform that collapses multiple networks into a single dynamic and reconfigurable multiservice, multilayer infrastructure that is efficient and agile. This will allow providers to support rapid delivery of high-performance, on-demand, application-driven network services.
Operators want network solutions that deliver multi-technology, multiservice architectures that serve as a single platform for applications such as business wholesale, mobile backhaul, IPTV, datacenter connectivity and enterprise vertical applications.
Metro networks are forecasted to grow 560% in total traffic by the end of 2017. In order to meet that demand, networks deployed today will have to be scalable. The ability of a network to scale and aggregate wavelengths from 10G to 100G to 200G and beyond is of the utmost importance. It's essential to meet the demand for dynamic services economically with terabit-scale and multilayer networking technologies in order to deliver a broad set of services at the most economical layer.
A flexible "metro core" architecture that supports network convergence with minimal impact to service operations or organizations is a vital part of moving metro networks forward. A scalable solution provides investment protection with the ability to double network capacity when you need it without incurring the upfront cost of buying twice the capacity you require today.
Networks will need to address unpredictable and dynamic traffic demands as the number and complexity of services continue to grow. An optical network solution that is software configurable simplifies operations, increases service velocity and automates provisioning. Software defined networking (SDN) and a control plane automate the process of activating optical services.
SDN offers the promise of greater network agility and efficiency through multilayer resource discovery and control as well as dynamic path selection. Based on policy driven provisioning, SDN simplifies and automates service creation resulting in rapid service innovation and delivery. Solutions that are software configurable lay the framework needed to implement SDN in the future.
A software configurable 100G/200G solution that allows a doubling of capacity with the touch of a button, results in a faster time to revenue.
A network that is agile, scalable and programmable is critical to minimizing CAPEX and OPEX. Agile optical networks are able to meet demand for dynamic services economically. Scalable solutions that prevent costly overbuilds and recurring investments in space and power will be paramount going forward.
A programmable solution drives higher network utilization without sacrificing network or service reliability.
Finally optical network intelligence helps to monetize network assets by shortening delivery times and reducing operating expenses typically associated with provisioning and maintenance.
Protect your optical network
To keep up with surging broadband traffic volumes, service providers in virtually every market are moving their optical transmission networks to 40G and 100G. But how long will this be enough? Consider a move to 200G. You can protect your network from the prospect of premature fiber exhaustion. And you can avoid investment in costly photonic overlays.

Bright House Networks loved its 1G Ethernet passive optical network (EPON). But there was just one problem: demand was increasing, and 1G EPON was quickly becoming not enough.
The cable multiple system operator, the sixth largest owner and operator of cable systems in the United States, serves roughly 2.5 million subscribers with its video, high-speed data, home security and automation and voice services.
Bright House Networks is a proponent of EPON because it allows the company to provision multiple customers onto one fiber and still provide dedicated bandwidth without oversubscription. It is their preferred way to accelerate the transformation of their network to an all IP ultra-broadband infrastructure.
"We're big fans of EPON because it fundamentally lowers the cost of our last mile infrastructure to provide fiber-based services to commercial businesses," Craig Cowden, senior VP of network engineering, operations and enterprise solutions at Bright House, said in a recent case study. "It's the gift that keeps on giving. There are benefits from day one."
But increasing bandwidth needs, especially from cellular providers trying to meet mobile video demand, were starting to require ultra-broadband for cable that reached speeds beyond 300 Mb per tower. This required 10G EPON.
Bright House selected Alcatel-Lucent for the upgrade, and this has led the company to use the Alcatel-Lucent 7360 Intelligent Services Access Manager (ISAM) FX product family card and optical network unit (ONU). The solution can simultaneously support multiple fiber technologies including 1G EPON, GPON, CWDMP2P and 10G-EPON, and the 7360 ISAM FX also has DOCSIS provisioning of EPON (DPoE) integrated into the platform.
By having DPoE integrated, Bright House will be more easily able to provision and support fiber-based services on a greater scale. It also will reduce operational expenses by allowing them to activate and manage EPON-based network services while using DOCSIS-based back office systems.
"Alcatel-Lucent really helped us to be near the leading edge with that solution, and the 10G EPON solution we're currently deploying from Alcatel-Lucent will help match our enterprise customer and cellular backhaul capacity requirements for the foreseeable future," noted Cowden.
The 10G EPON service will initially be used to provide commercial business services for enterprise customers. But it also will be used for purely symmetrical services that are generally not technically feasible with many other access technologies, use both 1G and multi-G services on the same EPON link, leverage higher individual speed services, and deliver guaranteed high-bandwidth throughput for mission-critical end-user applications.
Bright House knows it must always stay ahead of demand, however, so plans are already being considered for 100G deployment.
"We have traditionally been an early investor in next gen network technologies that enable capabilities that set us above the competition," said Cowden. "10G EPON with DPoE continues that legacy, and we look forward to continuing that technology journey to solve our customers' needs."
As leaders in Europe debate whether the EU is "back" during the World Economic Forum, the region is increasingly falling behind when it comes to telecommunications, according to Alcatel-Lucent CEO Michel Combes.
"There is a real danger," noted Combes in a recent blog post on Europe's digital divide (published in the Wall Street Journal, "that Europe is losing ground in the information era."
That's because there is an increasing gap between what the latest smartphones can deliver and what Europe's telecommunications companies can support due to a price war that inhibits infrastructure upgrades.
"Europe is locked in a vicious circle of competition focused exclusively on price, one that forces operators to reduce their investments and destroys their innovation capacity," noted Combes. "This type of competition is bad news for a digital Europe and its consumers."
The digital agenda in Europe needs to be reset by the likes of the European Telecommunications Network Operators' Association (ETNO) and others. Telecommunications investment in the order of between €110 and €170 billion will be needed by 2020 if the region is to keep pace with the rest of the world in terms of cellular infrastructure and innovation. Failure could cost Europe €750 billion in lost GDP growth, and as many as 5.5 million highly-skilled jobs for young qualified European graduates.
"That's a high price to pay for accepting life in a slow-motion telecoms world," he noted.
What Europe must do, first and foremost, is move to an all-IP network infrastructure, supported by a virtualized infrastructures based on cloud technology.
Combes also suggested that Europe must invest more in applications and analytics and capabilities such as SDN and NFV.
"Today eight out of the top 10 global Internet platforms are American," he wrote, and the two others are Chinese. "A new model of international work distribution seems to be taking shape in which the profitable operators are in the U.S. and the American Internet platforms are taking most of the residual value in Europe, while the application development centers are in India and the manufacturing is in China."
Europe led the way when it came to 3G deployment, but now it is being left behind.
To fix the problem, operators need to end a competition model that is only based on reducing prices in the short term. Spectrum allocation also needs to be reviewed, and shared and efficient policies on net neutrality must be crafted to allow operators to differentiate themselves and revive investment.
"We also need to come back down to earth and stop thinking that the telecom sector can continue with 120 operators in Europe, subject to rules and procedures that change from one country to another," Combes boldly wrote.
If Europe is not to fall too far behind, its digital agenda must tackle the recent decline in telecommunications. Importantly, as Combes stated, it must do so with a sense of urgency and purpose.
It seems these days that no matter how much bandwidth and services multiple systems operators (MSOs) it is not enough. Subscribers want higher quality user experiences not just for their televisions but for the exploding number of other network connected devices they possess which are multiple media bandwidth hungry.
Even if cable MSOs can meet current demands the pressure to go faster is intense, especially when the competition is only a click and a quick connection away. This need for speed to the market and in the market is placing increasing strains on cable system architectures and creating a need to accelerate cable network IP transformation.
As Time Warner Cable senior director and chief network architect Michael S. Kelsen has written: "Cable operators are seeing their network capacity requirements double approximately every 24 months to keep up with customer demand and the launch of new services."
One way to cope with increasing capacity demands is ensuring cable operators have a flexible network edge. A flexible network edge helps maintain growth but reduces costs at the edge of the network by supporting the evolution of residential, commercial and even mobile services.
This simplified, flexible cable hub architecture at the edge can help in a number of ways, including the simplification of multiple routers and protocols that make deployment more complex and rigid. It also can remove dependence on less-capable IP routing platforms such as today's cable modem termination system that limits the cable operator's ability to effectively leverage the benefits of IP, scaling and service functionality at the cable edge.
A flexible edge means that cable MSOs will have an IP service routing plane that can be deployed behind multiple technology access networks including current and future DOCSIS, point-to-point Fiber, PON and Carrier Wi-Fi, and deliver a converged service network while also enabling cable operators to transition their access networks for the latest requirements.
"In my opinion the flexible cable edge hub architecture will provide a number of benefits that help solve the challenges cable operators face today," noted Nicholas Cadwgan in a recent TechZine posting, Cable Operators Get the Edge on Capacity & Cost.
These benefits include a simplified cable hub that also allows for a migration from existing network architecture to a future mode of operation, the introduction of new technologies that can evolve independently, and the delivery of common personalized and differentiated services consistently across multiple access technologies. It also can accelerate service innovation, and it provides a platform for future migration towards new network paradigms such as network personal video recorder, virtual customer premises equipment and cloud applications.
There's never enough for subscribers. Cable operators will just have to get used to it and make sure they have the cable architecture to support continued growth.
With this as context of its consideration of how best move to next generation communications capabilities, UPMC, a Western Pennsylvania healthcare provider, turned to Alcatel-Lucent to upgrade its IP and optical networking capabilities, starting at its core, so it could better accommodate and leverage the large data sets that are gathered on a regular basis. And, at the HIMSS event in the U.S., the annual conference and exposition for healthcare information technology professionals and their suppliers, UPMC's selection of Alcatel-Lucent to better enable critical communications services to doctors' offices, hospitals and other sites throughout Western Pennsylvania was announced.
A key component of the new network will be Alcatel-Lucent's 7950 Extensible Routing System (XRS). This solution is positioned by the company as the most powerful IP core router on the global market. In working with UPMC, Alcatel-Lucent will also provide advanced 100G fiber-optic technology to support the needs of the organization's network.
"Here at UPMC we see our network as a vital tool to support our mission – providing our patients with world-class healthcare," said William Hanna, Vice President, Technical Services, Information Services Division of UPMC. "Our ongoing network modernization is ensuring that we remain at the forefront of healthcare innovation. This new project with Alcatel-Lucent, the latest step in our long-standing collaboration, will enable us to not only increase the capacity of our network, but to make our entire enterprise smarter and more efficient, and ultimately improve patient care throughout the UPMC system."
This new 7950 XRS core router is based on the 400G FP3 chipset, providing a significant boost in efficiency, capacity and flexibility within IP networks. At the same time, the technology reduces power consumption and increases operational efficiency. Telefonica and Belgacom both recently deployed the 7950 XRS and are enjoying the increased capacity. And, in a recent Alcatel-Lucent blog, Alcatel-Lucent's new core router – Off to a BIG start!", the company shares the early enthusiasm for the 7950 XRS which has more than 20 trials either underway or complete and also has six service providers confirmed as wanting to evolve their core networks using this technology.
Michel Emelianoff, President of Alcatel-Lucent Enterprise said: "The 'big data' needs of large-scale enterprises such as UPMC are breaking down the barriers between traditional IT systems and communications networks. This project with UPMC offers a great example of how advanced IP and fiber optic technologies can enhance the operations of enterprises in a wide array of fields. We are particularly thrilled to play such a critical role in bringing improved healthcare services to the communities that UPMC serves."
According to Alcatel-Lucent, a majority of its 7950 XRS wins are IP core network transformations that are driving away from 10G into the era of 100G or even beyond. As cloud service, video and the proliferations of wireless devices continue to change the dynamics of the network, changes have to be made to support the demand today and into the future.
Given all of the government mandates surrounding data storage, retention and access management, the explosion of data in general, and the need for enterprises of all sizes to able to share the value of structured and unstructured data and derive actionable insights that can drive more efficient performance and sustainable business advantage, we are going to see more and more enterprises upgrading their entire network infrastructures. It starts with rethinking the core and includes a healthy dose of fiber.]]>
Demands on broadband providers have been nothing short of intense the last few years. The predicted "data storm" has arrived and users now expect more flexibility, capability, quality performance, and access to rich applications and features. This can be a challenge for service providers trying to meet the need, but is also creating new opportunities and revenue streams when challenges are overcome to improve service delivery overall.
A recent Alcatel-Lucent blog, Connecting the World – from Innovation to Reality, highlights these opportunities. Author Dave Geary, President Alcatel-Lucent Wireline, points out the socio-economic benefits of broadband. And, while we're aware of the increase in mobility and growing demand for access, there are also a few other stats that may be surprising for some vendors, including that wirelines still mater.
For instance, did you know that:
Even at a young age, we feel a constant need to stay connected. Yet at the same time, much of the world is still not connected to available to what Alcatel-Lucent calls High Leverage Networks.
For instance, while 80 percent of users in North America have access to high speed connections, there are still 75 million who are unserved. In APAC, more than a billion people are connected, but that's only 25 percent of the population and three billion are still unserved. In fact, 4.5 billion people throughout the world do not have broadband service.
This represents considerable opportunity for broadband service providers able to reach this target audience – the underserved. Telkom South Africa is in the process of connecting 4 million subscribers through a combination of fiber and copper technologies. Telmex and Oi in LATAM have launched similar initiatives, and fiber networks are being rapidly rolled out in China by China Telecom, China Mobile and China Unicom.
Even with this progress, however, it's not enough to just stay connected. It's also important to ensure new and existing subscribers have access to the bandwidth they need, while also supporting the applications and services they want access to. As a result, Geary says that service providers need to establish bandwidth targets based on the population they serve.
In doing so, they need to leverage new technologies that will deliver higher bitrates. For instance, Belgacom plans to offer 50Mbps to all subscribers using the VDSL Vectoring; KPN relies on P2P fiber to push out 500Mbps and Vectoring will soon be used to improve overall performance; and massive programs have been adopted by Verizon and AT&T as they focus on LTE and delivering speeds up to 1Gbps.
These examples demonstrate a clear effort on the part of service providers to try and meet a very real and growing need to reach those who are not connected and improve services for those who are. In the process, the deployment of robust infrastructures, the high leverage network and strategic plans with realistic and measurable outcomes will enable real and profitable progress that enable users to get to fast faster and service providers to monetize the need for speed faster as well.
Whether it be bringing wired broadband to customers by cost-effectively upgrading existing copper plant with VDSL2 in a timely manner or installing new fiber optics, wires still matter in enabling the under and un-served the vital links they need to be part of the connected world.
New Zealand is on the brink of a new era in communications. Two major initiatives will significantly help improve the speed and capacity of the country's high-speed broadband network, as outlined in a recent Alcatel-Lucent (ALU) white paper, "How New Zealand can increase the social & economic impacts of high-speed broadband."
The Ultra-Fast Broadband (UFB) project and Rural Broadband Initiative (RBI) are set to improve the network speed and capacity available to nearly 98 percent of New Zealanders, based on a study conducted by Bell Labs, the research arm of Alcatel-Lucent. The goal is, as ALU likes to say about its broadband portfolio, "Get to Fast, Faster."
The study explored the social and economic impacts for New Zealand of UFB and RBI, and the high-speed broadband applications that these networks will enable, ultimately showing the incremental growth in GDP stemming from the network builds will be $5.5 billion over 20 years, significantly larger than the government's $1.5 billion capital contribution to these projects.
The study offers ideas on how New Zealand can positively impact three key variables, therefore increasing the economic benefits stemming from the UFB and RBI networks, and the broadband applications that will be delivered across them. The key variables are:
While video is one of the key drivers behind the surge, demands go beyond entertainment. Governments worldwide recognize the socio-economic benefits that broadband can bring, and have set targets for universal broadband, according to ALU, which provides high-capacity fiber, copper access and 4G LTE solutions aimed to help service providers, utility companies and governments accelerate delivery of ultra-fast broadband in the most cost-effective way possible.
In fact, Alcatel-Lucent has been in New Zealand since the 1920s, building and maintaining the country's telecommunications infrastructure. Alcatel-Lucent says that ICT innovation can be a powerful catalyst for social and economic development.
Alcatel-Lucent's ng Connect Program aims to bring together infrastructure, device, application and content companies to create an end-to-end ecosystem to rapidly develop new services and applications. The company launched the ng Connect Program in New Zealand in late 2011 to help local companies, universities and research institutions collaborate with global leaders on high-speed broadband applications, for use by New Zealand end-users and to generate export earnings.
Under the UFB and RBI initiatives, 75 percent of New Zealanders will have access to ultra-fast broadband. Schools, hospitals and 90 percent of businesses will be connected by 2015. In addition, residences and the remaining 10 percent of businesses will be connected by 2019.
Businesses with large employee bases can help accelerate application adoption and create a so-called bow-wave of high-speed broadband uptake by using UFB and RBI as the basis for large-scale teleworking initiatives. To drive this aggressive level of uptake, the CXOs of large organizations need to champion this massive-scale teleworking and communication effort in New Zealand.
A recent Alcatel-Lucent TechZine article by Sam Bucci, Vice President and General Manager, Terrestrial Optics, entitled, Coherent Technology: Making 100 Gb/s Viable, focused on how fiber impairments can decrease the performance and quality of the data transmission as speeds increase. It made a compelling case that such impairment can be overcome with coherent technology which ensures performance and cost benefits are optimized.
While what follows may be a bit technical, the facts are that network challenges exist when moving from slower to faster speeds. Fiber has been a true wonder for the delivery of high-performance and the ever increasing need for higher-speed networks for many years. However, they have not been immune from possible degradation as speeds increase. Indeed, fiber impairments can cause degraded signal quality leading to overall poor performance. The advanced electro-optics engine in the Alcatel-Lucent (ALU) solution leverages the concepts of optimized signal modulation along with coherent detection so that service providers can effectively overcome these challenges in their fiber networks.
As Bucci explains, the presence of coherent detection applied to optimal transmission creates a phase-modulated signal. This signal is then sent to the optimal mixer, which also receives a signal from a local oscillator. He notes that with beating in place, the optical signal operating at the same frequency as the oscillator is amplified, making all other frequencies non-coherent with the oscillator. This process provides an additional 2-dB improvement in the noise sensitivity compared with differential detection. In lay terms, less noise translates into much better signal quality and hence better quality performance.
The good news is that different phase-domain and polarization-domain modulation formats can be combined with coherent detection. This is important in terms of keeping expense down for service providers with heterogeneous optical networks. As the article points out, two formats in phase-domain and polarization domain modulation have emerged as primary candidates to help overcome network challenges in moving to 100-Gb/s optical systems:
While the coherent architecture is more complex than conventional solutions, two key advantages exist: it provides the optical field carrier amplitude, full polarization and phase signal information for easy retrieval so it can be applied to compensate for linear distortions; and the encoding of multiple information bits is conducted through orthogonal polarizations of the optical signal. This is precisely what customers are looking for: transport capacity is increased and spectral efficiency is optimized.
At the end of the day what operators want, given their substantial fiber network investments with their long life-cycles, are ways to improve the performance and reach of their networks as they migrate to higher speeds and feeds.
This is exactly where coherent technology provides significant value-added. Three main benefits cited by ALU include:
In working with Alcatel-Lucent for coherent technology access, optical networks can be upgraded seamlessly to enjoy such benefits as the adaptation of existing dispersion managed links; the addition of older fiber plants without DCMs for transport, and the upgrade to 100 Gb/s in older fiber networks that would normally be a challenge.
We hear a lot of talk in the industry about graceful migrations to the future, and tend to overlook how difficult the plumbing may be to get there. This is especially the case when dealing with literally sunken assets.

Daily iPhone App: Leaping Legends is a snarky endless runner from Everplay
You may remember (or, like me, still be playing) Ninjump, the vertical endless runner from Backflip Studios. Kris Jones of Everplay Interactive (who we've covered here before) is also a big fan and has borrowed the idea for Everplay's latest title, Leaping Legend. In fact, Everplay has borrowed a lot for this one -- not only does the gameplay innovate on Ninjump's core idea, but there are all kinds of wacky in-jokes and references hidden in Leaping Legend and its various mechanics.
You play a knight who constantly runs up two walls by jumping back and forth. There are various powerups to grab along the way (like a shield or sword to defend or attack as you go), and you can move up or down the screen to dodge obstacles. I found this game tough, but then again, I didn't use any of the plentiful boosts that you need to buy with collected coins. There are also skins to buy, and items to help your progress as you conquer various goals and achievements.
One minor issue I have is with restarting the game. There's a button clearly labeled "replay" which actually sends you back to the main menu, and its placement is awkward. My finger often opened up Game Center or turned the sound off instead of restarting the game as I wanted. A minor tweak would take care of it, but in a game like this where you're meant to go back to the beginning over and over, it was more of a frustration than it needed to be.
Other than that, Leaping Legend is a fun title, with some solid core gameplay and references to everything from Zelda to Skyrim. I'm still looking forward to Everplay's Ace of Blades, but until then, this will do just fine.

how do I get the scan to be grayscale?
Photosmart Plus B210 series all in one on a Mac OS 10.6.8. Just bought the new printer. Prints and scans great but I would loke to change scan setting to be grayscale and cannot find where to do that.
Re: how do I get the scan to be grayscale?
Hi dj248,
It depends on the program you're using to scan the document. Usually you need to adjust the settings there, say if you're using HP Scan / HP Utility, there'll be an option for you to set it in Color or Grayscale. If you're using other programs such as Image Capture or Preview you can go to Show Details and you can adjust it from there. For more info, check this.
Hope this works for you!

You're one step closer to paradise...
Article Source: Copyright © 2012 by Fodor's Travel, a division of Random House Inc. All rights reserved.
If you're making a circle of the island, this is a great stopping point to jump out of your car and stretch your legs. It's easy, because the sand literally comes up to your parked car, and nice, because there is a sandy bottom and mostly calm conditions. Plus there are full facilities and lots of shade trees. Often overlooked, and often overcast, Punaluu can afford you a moment fresh air before you get back to your sightseeing. Amenities: showers; toilets; parking (no fee). Best for: solitude, swimming.
This gorgeous swimming and snorkeling beach is protected by a long breakwater left over from a now-defunct boat harbor. The beach's entire length is sand, and a reef creates smallish waves perfect for novice surfers. Amenities: toilets; parking (no fee). Best for: snorkeling, swimming, surfing.
You may have to do a little exploring to find Papaoneone Beach, which is tucked away behind three condos. Duck through a wide, easy-to-spot hole in the fence, and you find an extremely wide, sloping beach that always seems to be empty. You'll have to park on the street. The waters are that eerie blue found only on the west side. The waves can get high here (it faces the same direction as the famed Makaha Beach), but, for the most part, the shore break makes for great easy rides on your boogie board or belly. The only downside is that, with the exception of a shower, all the facilities are for the condos at the adjacent Beach Lovers Hawaii, so it's just you and the big blue. Amenities: showers. Best for: solitude, swimming (carefully).
There is a reason why the producers of the TV show Lost chose this beach for their set. On the remote northwest point of the island, it is about 10 miles from the closest store or public restroom; you could spend a day here and not see another living soul. And that is precisely its beauty—all the joy of being stranded on a deserted island without the trauma of the plane crash. The beach is wide and white, the waters bright blue (but a little choppy) and full of sea turtles and other marine life. Mokuleia is a great secret find; just remember to pack supplies and use caution, as there are no lifeguards. Amenities: parking (no fee). Best for: solitude.
The big attraction here is tiny Goat Island, a bird sanctuary just offshore. At low tide the water is shallow enough—never more than waist-high—so that you can wade out to it. Wear sneakers or aqua socks so you don't cut yourself on the coral. The beach itself is fairly narrow but long enough for a 20-minute stroll, one-way. The waves are never too big, and sometimes they're just right for the beginning bodysurfer. The entrance gates, which close at 6:45 pm, are easy to miss, and you can't see the beach from the road. Families love to camp in the groves of ironwood trees at Malaekahana State Park. Cabins are also available here, making a perfect rural getaway. Amenities: showers; toilets; parking (no fee). Best for: walking, swimming.

Regions Financial Names Manager For Economic Development Initiatives
Regions Financial (NYSE:RF) has named Jeff Rabren to manage economic development initiatives for the company. Rabren's initial focus will be on programs that encourage capital investment and job creation in Regions' headquarters state of Alabama.
Rabren joined Regions in 2010 to manage state government affairs. In his expanded role as senior vice president, State Government Affairs and Economic Development, he will coordinate the company's economic development initiatives as the liaison to public, private and non-profit economic development agencies.
"Jeff's experience working with state and local governments and the non-profit sector make him ideally suited to forge stronger connections between our bankers and the economic development community," said John Turner, South Region president for Regions Bank. "Every day our bankers work with companies large and small to provide both the capital and financial guidance needed to strengthen and expand their operations. When the public sector and private companies work together to generate sustainable economic growth and create jobs, we all win."
Earlier this year, Regions established a $1 billion loan pool to provide economic development capital and spur business growth in Alabama. Rabren's appointment strengthens Regions' commitment to supporting economic development through community involvement, lending, and support for the recruitment and retention of industry."As the state's largest private-sector employer headquartered in Alabama, and the only Fortune 500 company here, we have a unique opportunity to serve our state and our communities," said Rabren. "We look forward to deepening our partnerships with the state Department of Commerce, economic developers, chambers of commerce and others to attract new business and industry to Alabama, while also helping existing industries grow and thrive." Prior to joining Regions, Rabren served as director of legislative affairs for former Alabama Gov. Bob Riley and legislative counsel in the Washington, D.C., office of former U.S. Rep. Terry Everett (R-AL). Rabren received his bachelor's degree in accounting from the University of Alabama and his law degree from the University of Alabama School of Law. He is a member of the Board of Directors at Camp Smile-A-Mile, Alabama's program for children with cancer. He also serves on the Board at Triumph Services, which helps adults with disabilities to live independently.

/ Expedition in Scotland
I fully appreciate that trying to pick a week and a location is going to be difficult to say the least but due to work committments I have to pre-book the weeks holiday in advance.Any ideas as to the the area and the time of year where I am most likely to get the better conditions?
I will keep the plan flexible and have a fairly large vehicle to move about at will so West coast, cairngorms and Torridon are all areas that I could move around in dependent upon weather. Not knowing Scotland that well I'm really after a little advice and help with my plan. All ideas welcome.
Having wild camped in Snowdonia on multi day trips in winter in some terrible weather I think I'm prepared for anything but am I going to encounter anything in Scotland that I haven't envisaged. If the weather or conditions aren't great then I would accept hill walking in the rain as second best and be happy to retire to a local pub/B&B.
Creag Meagaidh sounds like it will fit the bill. I have never been there, but it is a bit remote. Not sure about the ridges.
I would imagine it would be pretty rough getting wet and cold all day with no option of pub to dry out. Good luck!
if you want to do a multi-day trek in Scotland in winter, staying in a bothy may be a better alternative than camping. The nights can be long and cold; if your gear is wet (quite likely) then staying in a tent can become an ordeal in itself.
I'd suggest the Cairngorms would be the best chance of getting what you want.
Go with the weather but you might consider the corrie below Aonach Beag and Choinich Mor. That face of Aonach Beag is very big, rarely visited and has a number of long winter routes on it.
The next Corrie to the East contains the crags of Stob Coire An Laoigh which would also be accessible from that location but the grades there start at IV.
As mentioned previously Seanna Bhraigh would be a good trip but best approached by bike.
Top of my winter tick list for next season but seems very fickle where conditions are concerned
Have a great trip!
Another vote for bothies.
But this far in advance I wouldn't decide upon an area. You won't know until the time what areas have good climbing, or indeed if there is any snow at all and perhaps mountain biking would be a better bet.
I think it is better to search out some good venues for various options:
if there is climbing west and not east
if there is climbing east and not west
if there is good climbing on the islands (rare, especially for Arran or Rum, so worth snapping at if it happens)
if there is good climbing everywhere
if there is no climbing anywhere
You could say that about much of the west coast! :)
I had a great 8 day winter trip there combination of wild camping and bothies. We came into Inverie on the ferry. We climbed most of the main peaks in winter conditions, firstly from a camp near Ladhar Bheinn, then Sourlies Bothy (with it's resident sabre toothed mouse which ate holes into our sacks and food!), then we walked out to Glen Finnan to catch the train back.
Absolutely fabulous! Was very cold, so we expended a lot of energy and got very hungry. In spite of taking a generous amount of carbohydrates we had run out by day 8!

That sounds like a fantastic trip!
He's a wee bugger isn't he? I saw him (or at least his handiwork) after he chewed through a chap's rucksack side pocket to get at an orange! I have stayed in countless bothies, but have never had such pestilence as at Sourlies. I reckon Dick van Dyke must have stayed there when he imagined a mouse with clogs on!! ;o) My mate Sean got the hammock..... :o(
As others have said winter climbing and camping in scotland in winter can be a bit of a trial, i would also suggest bothies unless you have a very stable cold period where you can brush down the snow and it isnt going to get everywhere in your tent...in my experience and unless you love being miserable then if the conditions are at all damp then bothies with a fire are the way to go. I walked into the hutchieson hut this winter in a sleet/snow storm and got soaked and could not get my stuff dry again!
Another vote for the gorms here, I think its great whatever the conditions. I went last winter with similar expectations. Unfortunately for me after a week or 2 of snow and freezing conditions, Mr sun decided to melt most of it just before I arrived, I had the same issue with annual leave so had to take a stab in the dark and book it around September. We stayed at the corror bothy for a night or 2 but mainly intended on wild camping. Towards the end of the trip we were hit by the worst winds I've ever seen (gusty too), which took out 2 of our tents. We ended up spending a very cold and uncomfortable night in a leaky emergency bothy (I forget the name). As horrible as this may sound we actually really enjoyed it, plugging up.the holes with screwed up mars bar wrappers ;). The moral of the story; always try to have a few backup plans. Know your escape routes and maintain your sense of adventure :). P.s. there's a lot to be said for bothys, I used to shun them a bit for being the easy option and full of softies ;) having tried them though they are actually well worth considering. It's great to be able to be able to move around freely and hang your soggy kit up to dry. The corrur even has a toilet!.
1) You're probably thinking of Ronnie Hilton.
2) The song you are referring to states that the encounter with the be-clogged mouse was real, not imagined, and took place in a windmill in old Amsterdam, not the Sourlies bothy. That's not to suggest that the mouse in question never visited the West Highlands on its holidays - after all, everyone knows what's grey with a trunk.
I did indeed, but my memories of Stewpot on a Saturday morning have misted with time...... ;o)

Blondie and the Beast
Sort of like Beauty and the Beast version but so vastly different.The plot's the same. The prince's cursed,Goku's a blonde and Bardock's an inventor . . . wait, Goku's a blonde? (Imagine him in a SS1 form.) And why are they're living in a medieval-like era? AU
Final Say
(Multiple Pairings.)
A Halloween fic I made two years ago. Full of horror, angst, rape, and so forth.
Phantom of the Opera
This is like a parody to the original Phantom of the Opera film but so vastly different! The plot's similar. Saiyans arrived on earth thirty years ago, human morals went off the chart. Wait...what's this? Goku's singing? And what is he wearing? *le gasp* Who's that watching him in the shadows? AU
Vejita Phantom
An ordinary day in an ordinary neighborhood. Except for the part about ghosts terrorizing the city. Wait...what! Oh, did I mentioned that the new neighbors moved in? Or that the house next house has a reputation for hunting down ghosts? Or that Vejita has a crush on his new neighbor. Plus, that he has a deadly secret which is to die for. A classic halloween story. AU

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia - View original article
|This biographical article needs additional citations for verification. (August 2010)
Jorge Moreno is an American musician of Cuban descent.
Moreno won much critical acclaim for his debut album and was awarded a Latin Grammy award for "Best New Artist", Early the next year he nominated in the (Anglo) Grammy's for "Best Latin Album" and was one of the first artists to perform in Spanish on Good Morning America.
He also received much praise and a Univision Nomination for his avant gard Self Directed Video for his track "Mi Sufrimiento", in which Moreno Humorusly confesses that the record company would not pay for another video so he did it himself.
After the dissolution of Maverick, Moreno went indie and was soon asked by Clive Davis to record a track "Satellite" with none other than Carlos Santana for the movie soundtrack Miramax film "Havana Nights" produced by Moreno's first producer Lester Mendez (Shakira).
Moreno then proceeded to release his second album cleverly titled "El Segundo" which started to gather more critical acclaim but was lost at radio in a wave of Reggaeton fad.
Moreno can also add TV Producer to his many talents, he opened a Production company on South beach named Beach Pictures which focuses on Docu-Reality content.
Jorge Moreno was born on April 23, 1975 in Miami, Florida. His parents emigrated from Cuba to Miami during the dictatorship of Fulgencio Batista. In the 1970s and 1980s, his father Antonio "TONY" Moreno was a well known and respected executive producer whom operated several well-known salsa labels. His mother, Melba, was a huge fan of 1950s and 1960s pop and rock acts such as Frankie Valli, Elvis Presley, and Dion.
As a teenager, he was most interested in punk and alternative American rock music. "Then I had my gothic phase, and I still love a lot of those bands", he told Hispanic Magazine. "But, the thing is, I was rebelling against conformity and commercial music. But the time came when I realized I was becoming as closed-minded as the people I was rebelling against." In his late teens, he began to discover classic Cuban crooners such as the legendary Beny Moré. This renewed interest in Latin music would yield an unusual mix that wasn't necessarily welcome on Miami's conventional Latin music scene.
The list of schools Moreno has attended start with Dade Christian, Palms Springs Elementary, Immaculate Conception, Edison Private, Hialeah Gardens Academy, Miami Lakes Jr, Belen, Miami Aerospace Military (Boarding School), Pace High, Miami High and Finally Coral Gables Sr. High. In his junior year of high school, Moreno joined two friends in a musical trio that melded all of these musical influences into a "a Latin Beatles-ish sort of rock." The band broke up three years later and Moreno left to study film and photography at New World School of the Arts and then Later University of Miami. In the meantime, however, he continued to compose and improve upon his guitar-playing skills. In 1996, upon deciding that he wanted to dedicate his life exclusively to music, he began recording demos---off-the-wall creations. He spent the next five years making demos, which he reportedly sent to record executives in pizza boxes in order to get their attention. Experimentation over this period forged a new sound that mixed these varied musical interests with the sounds of the 1950s that he had grown up with. ""If you take [sic] Beny Moré, Paul McCartney, and Radiohead, placed them in a car, and shook it up a bit, that would be my sound", Moreno would later tell LatinStyleMag.com.
Moreno got a break when EMI Music Publishing took him on as a songwriter. It was then that he caught the attention of Madonna's Latin music label, Maverick Música, and hooked up with established producers Lester Méndez, A.T. Molina, and Andrés Levin. The result was Moreno's slickly produced debut album in 2001. One review referred to Moreno as "a fascinating, occasionally almost surreal melding of traditional and modern Latin styles, '60s Top 40, B-movie soundtrack music, '90s synth pop, alternative rock, and even a little hip-hop, the album defies easy categorization." The album's bicultural mix of disparate musical influences took the United States-based Latin music industry by storm.
"Not since Santana has a U.S.-based Latin performer captured bicultural sensibilities in such a seamless, accessible and original way", stated a review in the Los Angeles Times. "Moreno might even manage to put Miami on the musical map after decades of mediocrity from the so-called capital of Latin music."
Using his training as a film student, Moreno produced his own music video for the pop ballad "Mi Sufrimiento", consisting of a single shot of the artist lip synching at home, with the streaming subtitles "Madonna owns my label .. Maybe I can get her to be in my video." The video became one of MTV Es biggest hits of the year and showed that Moreno was not your typical pop artist.
After years of relative anonymity, Moreno became an overnight sensation with an alternative version of the song "Babalú", popularized for American audiences by the late Cuban-born artist Desi Arnaz, who was best known for his role as Ricky Ricardo on the 1950s television comedy I Love Lucy, in which he starred alongside his wife, the famous actress and comedienne Lucille Ball. Moreno knew that he wanted to pay tribute to the song on his first album, and he later appeared on the CBS I Love Lucy's 50th Anniversary Special,[1] hosted by the children of Arnaz and Ball. His appearance on the program sparked public interest in an artist previously unknown to the greater public.
In 2002, Moreno won the 2002 Latin Grammy Award for Best New Artist, and in 2003 his album Moreno received a Grammy nomination for Best Latin Pop Album. Despite mainstream success and the "pretty-boy pouty" look of his album cover, Moreno has often used the word "alternative" to categorize his music. "I consider myself part of the Latin alternative music movement" he told Hispanic Magazine.
In late March 2005, Moreno's released his second CD was "EL SEGUNDO", with the song "Avión" expected to rule the airwaves but was lost with the new reggaeton fad.. In the meantime, he had live performances all across Universities in the U.S. and started to build a grass roots fan base. Soon after he recorded the title track for the Havana Nights Sound track with Santana.
In 2008, Moreno performed as Special Music Guest along with Usher in the Victoria Secret Fashion Show, reportedly seen by hundreds of millions of views worldwide. Later that year he started another business venture Beach Pictures, (www.BeachPictures.tv) a Miami based television, film and web production company represented by William Morris Endeavor.
Most recently, Moreno is taking music at his own pace and is releasing a string of singles. The first being "Thank You" released late 2010 from Forward Motion Records on iTunes and won the prestigious International Songwriters Contest "ISC" award for "Best Video" and placed as a semi finalist for "Best Song". His second single "This Town" is an Orbison -esc indie track and was recently released on iTunes. He is reportedly releasing a Spanish version of the song "Pray for you" made famous by Jaron and The Long road to love. Stay tuned for more.

Prologis Research Examines European Industrial Property Market Investment Opportunities
AMSTERDAM, Nov. 1, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Prologis, Inc. (NYSE: PLD), the leading global owner, operator and developer of industrial real estate, today published an in-depth research report into the performance of the industrial property sector in Europe.
The paper titled "Opportunities in the European Industrial Property Market" highlights the impact of cyclical factors such as the current deficit in Class-A space and supply-demand dynamics, as well as major structural trends such as the ongoing supply chain reconfiguration and the rise of e-commerce.
Key findings:
- European industrial real estate values declined 21.9 percent from the pre-crisis peak in 2007, and have subsequently only recovered by 1.3 percent on average. Current values are attractive relative to replacement costs and the pattern of value recovery in the U.S. following the global financial crisis.
- Logistics real estate delivered 7.6 percent in direct return over the last 10 years, some 200 and 240 basis points higher than the direct return component of office and retail respectively.
- Despite weak GDP growth in the EU—just 1.5 percent per annum over the last 10 years—trade and supply reconfiguration are expected to drive strong demand for distribution space in Europe.
- The U.S. market has more than four times the Class-A distribution stock relative to Europe, where Class-A logistics assets account for only 14 percent of industrial stock. The European logistics property market is therefore relatively underdeveloped.
- E-commerce is increasing, requiring retailers to re-evaluate their distribution channels to support demand and expected growth. Every additional €1 billion of online sales resulted in an average additional warehouse demand of approximately 72,000 square meters in the UK, Germany and France over the last five years.
Ali Nassiri, vice president, acquisitions and research, Prologis Europe said: "Over the long term, the industrial property sector has proven to be a solid and defensive asset class, with an attractive risk-return profile to institutional investors. Industrial space is a key contributor to productivity enhancement, cost reduction, and overall supply chain strategy. The ongoing drive for greater operational and cost efficiency will benefit industrial real estate, fueling the sector through its recovery in the near term and into the future."The full report can be downloaded at www.prologis.com/docs/whyindustrialeurope.pdf About Prologis Prologis, Inc., is the leading owner, operator and developer of industrial real estate, focused on global and regional markets across the Americas, Europe and Asia. As of September 30, 2012, Prologis owned or had investments in, on a consolidated basis or through unconsolidated joint ventures, properties and development projects expected to total approximately 565 million square feet (52.5 million square meters) in 21 countries. The company leases modern distribution facilities to more than 4,500 customers, including manufacturers, retailers, transportation companies, third-party logistics providers and other enterprises.

I get into queue. Someone instantly picks Jax. I pick Shen. Two others pick: Akali and Evelynn. He starts complaining we have Evelynn on our team. He goes ranting on how she's completely useless (he's probably right, but that's not the point).
So what do I do? I switch to Tryndamere. He complains even more. He says we need a range DPS... Last person picks Teemo and says "going AP". This practically infuriates him, and goes about how all these people suck at this game.
After this, Akali changes her summoner spells to Rally/Fortify. He just goes WTF.... I change one of mine to Revive. Evelynn & Teemo do the same. He finally queue dodges. Talk about pre-game trolling.
... Next queue, I later run into an Ashe that takes Smite/Fortify and instantly called mid. Instant queue dodge (yeah, a part of me was glad someone queue dodged her).
C00L sT0RY BROSIZZLE CAPT SKI KKID
i think thats hilarious :d
Hippo Man
i picked teleport revive yi so another player picked teleport revive veigar (than que dodged with 0 seconds)
I would have queue dodged a team of jackasses too.
