The following is from the press release. What does it mean -- if anything: In the event that Astex is required to solicit proxies to approve a second step merger in connection with the proposed transaction, Astex and its directors and executive officers may be deemed to be participants in the solicitation of proxies from the holders of Astex common stock in respect of the second step merger contemplated by the proposed transaction.
Stock price is up today. Hmm, I wonder what Eiasi and JNJ are thinking.

(KABUL, Afghanistan) -- A group in Afghanistan claims to have gunned down a Swedish journalist considered a "legend" in his own country. Nils Horner, 52, was conducting an interview on the streets of Kabul Tuesday when witnesses said two men shot him in the head. No one else was injured in the attack.
In a statement, members of the fidai mahaz movement say they killed Horner and accused him of being a spy for MI6, Britain's intelligence agency.
The murder has got other foreigners particularly worried because it occurred in a supposedly safe area inhabited by non-governmental organizations, embassies and journalists.
It was in the same neighborhood last January that 21 people were killed during an attack on a Lebanese restaurant. Three of the victims were American.
Horner's death might discourage reporters from journeying outside more fortified military bases and diplomatic compounds to seek out stories they wouldn't get otherwise.

Lady Gaga at the MTV Video Music Awards in Los Angeles. (August 28, 2011)
Prostthetics aside i am disgusted by her flying the middle finger in picture #6. Not because she did but because its offensive how little she cared to use proper form with her middle finger statement. If one is to take the "Fuck you" of middle fingering serious one needs to use proper form i.e. pointer finger and ring finger upright and in-line with the middle finger, the pinky must be pulled a little harder to also form a flat surface across the back of the hand in line with the middle finger.
what she did is not a statement its Just disgusting. Just disgusting.
I guess this is what the uber rich do when they're bored. What an idiot.
yeahhhh. "prosthetic."

Wonderful and relaxing
Cannot say enough about this home. Pack your clothes and the house provides everything else. The owner has your comfort in mind with all his properties have to offer. From towels, sheets, blankets, and pillows to garbage bags, laundry detergent and a kitchen that you can prepare a holiday dinner in. For such a spacious home everything is very convenient. Enough baths for all the bedrooms and a large dining table to seat the whole family. The view is spectacular, the
Lighthouse is perfectly framed in every window and sliding glass door on the bay side of the house. The quiet cul-d-sac is perfect for an evening stroll to take in the the beautiful sunset. We have been renting this home for four years now and consider it our home away from home.
Great House! Fabulous Location!
This turned out to be a wonderful house for our family of 13. Loved the windows all around the great room which afforded a beautiful view of the bay. The master bedroom suite overlooking the dock was excellent for the birthday girl and her husband. The kitchen was well equipped although I would have preferred regular chairs rather than the canvas captain chairs. However, we did bring our own bridge chairs and that worked out perfectly giving us more space around the very large table. All linens were wrapped and pristine and the house was immaculate. Loved the wooden floors and all the built-in cabinets as well as all the wooden molding. It all gave the house a clean, fresh look. Hope we can return again one day soon. Definitely recommend it!

Cold Steel Ti Lite Zytel Handle Folder Knife 26SP. This knife is a custom quality folding knive, especially those manufactured with Titanium handles and Titanium leaf spring locks are undeniably strong, lightweight,and beautiful to look at, but theyre also quite expensive.

Instead of 7075 Aluminum, it has a 43% glass filled Zytel for the handles and high quality stainless steel for the leaf spring lock and liners.

ANNAPOLIS, Md. - The family of a paramedic who died in a 2008 Medevac helicopter crash in Maryland is suing the federal government for $15 million.
The attorney for flight paramedic Mickey Lippy's family said Wednesday that Lippy's wife and young daughter deserve restitution for the "negligent acts" of Federal Aviation Administration air traffic controllers working the night of the crash. National Transportation Safety Board members concluded the crash that killed four people was caused by a combination of factors including a pilot who was not proficient in instrument landing approaches, and air traffic controllers who provided outdated weather information.
Robert Schulte, the attorney for Lippy's family, notes in the complaint he filed in U.S. District Court in Greenbelt last month that weather information given to the helicopter's pilot was "hours old and highly inaccurate." Schulte says the information suggested visibility in the area was much better than it was at the time.
The complaint also faults FAA air traffic controllers for "unresponsiveness" and "inattention." Helicopter pilot Stephen Bunker, who also died in the accident, told an air traffic controller the night of the crash that he was having trouble with an electronic navigation aid used to guide planes to runways.
When Bunker asked for help landing the helicopter using ground-based radar, the Andrews Air Force Base controller told him she was not "current" in the procedure, according to the complaint. She made no additional inquiries about the pilot's plans, "nor did she render, or attempt to render, any other assistance to the aircraft," the complaint said.
Lippy and three others were killed when the helicopter went down in District Heights on Sept. 27, 2008. The sole survivor of the crash said she has been through more than 20 surgeries since the accident.
Schulte said the public expects FAA controllers to provide pilots with accurate weather information and to be trained to help in tricky situations.
"We all pay for that help and you expect a certain level of professionalism with a certain salary grade and it wasn't there that evening," Schulte said.
FAA spokesman Les Dorr declined to comment on the lawsuit, saying the federal agency does not typically speak about pending litigation.
The NTSB noted several factors that contributed to the crash. They included the pilot's limited recent experience with using instruments for flying; the failure of air traffic controllers to give him updated weather details; and the pilot's increased workload and possible fatigue due to air traffic controllers' handling of the situation.
Schulte's complaint says Lippy's wife and daughter are seeking $15 million for multiple reasons, including mental anguish, emotional pain and suffering, loss of companionship and loss of parental care. Schulte is also seeking $1 million in a separate count on behalf of Lippy himself, for his "great fear and apprehension, and therefore conscious pain and suffering," before the craft hit the ground.

Von Maur Executive Training Program Interview
The process took a day – interviewed at Von Maur in July 2011.
I sent the recruited an email for the executive training program and received an email back from her that day asking me to apply for the position online. Two days later I received a call from the recruiter and she asked if I had about 15 minutes to talk with her about the program. We talked for about 20 minutes. She was incredibly professional and very polite. She asked me questions like
'why do you want to work for VM?'
'Tell me about your past positions'
'What are your pay expectations' Which REALLY caught me off guard considering no one had ever asked me that during an interview or quick '15 min talk.....'
..Seemed like she was reading the questions off from a list
Anyways, at the end of our conversation she asked me if I was still interested in the position and if I would like to begin the interviewing process and have a formal interview with her for the position. (surprised me because everyone always says that VM is VERY slow with the hiring process!!)
My interview is tomorrow.

Great Stuff at a great price
By Todd on November 4, 2013
Verified PurchaseI paid too much for the butt-crack pest control tech to come out to my place and attempt to maintain my home/property. After watching this bozo do a poor job and asking 20 questions about his profession, I became convinced I could do a better job myself. After researching the requirements I bought a good sprayer + respirator and now I save $100s doing the spraying myself. I only wish I had done this earlier. Permerthrin is fairly safe to use. Simply follow mix + application directions.

Did the job quite well and shipped fast
By Re' on January 9, 2014
Verified PurchaseI needed this in a hurry (Like Yesterday) and DoMyOwnPestControl.com was the only one online that I found offering next day shipping at an extra cost. The product worked very well the first time, but I retreated the area after 7 days just to be safe and issue was resolved 100%. Martins has a great built in measurement system and for my experience both Martins Permethrin 10% and DoMyOwnPestControl.com exceeded expectations. Thank You!

AYes Martins Permethrin 10% will kill roaches and or bed bugs that come in contact with the treated area. However, to eradicate roaches we also recommend using roach bait in conjunction.

John from Hico, Texas asked:
QCan this product Martins Permethrin 10% be used in 55 gallon spray systems?
AThe label states that if using in a for or misting system for mosquitoes, flies and gnats to dilute at the rate of 1 quart of Martins permethrin per 25 gallons of water. So for 55 gallons you would use roughly 70 ounces of solution. However it does not specifically state on the label the use of a 55 gallon drum misting system so you may still want to check with the manufacturer to make sure it is okay for this type of application. You can reach Control Solutions at 1-281-892-2500.

The directions for my bottle of Martins Permethrin 10% multipurpose insecticide is missing. I am trying to apply to yard with a pump sprayer I need mixing ratio for grass lawn application.
AThoroughly wet down grass a few hours prior to applying Martins Permethrin 10%. Home lawns should be not more than 3 inches tall at the time of application. For ants, crickets, and grasshoppers use 1/2 oz per 3 gallons of water to cover 1,000 sq ft. For other listed insects use 1.5 oz in 10 gallons of water to cover 1,000 sq ft. For heavy infestations repeat application in 2 weeks.

Shawn from Portageville Missouri asked:
QHow do i mix Permethrin 10% to kill bed bugs in my home?
Their in my couch and its only a couple months old
Martins Permethrin 10% is NOT labeled for bedbugs. Please look at our Bed Bug Kits for all the necessary products to do a full treatment for bed bugs. It is recommended after you see evidence bed bugs are in your home that you treat completely to prevent further infestations. Bed Bugs can lay go up to 18 months without eating making it very likely for them to reappear. To treat your couch alone, we would recommend using Bedlam Aerosol spray in the tufts and folds of the couch and underside of the cushions. Please look at some of our Bed Bug Control Articles here.

Steve from Md asked:
QCan Martins Permethrin 10% be used on luggage in a dilution of .50%
A Martins Permethrin 10% is not labeled to be used on luggage. If Bed Bugs are your concern, we do have a few travel items that may be sprayed on luggage to kill and repel bed bugs. One of our most popular luggage spray is the Rest Easy Bed Bug Spray.

Catherine from Torrance Ca asked:
QCan Martins Permethrin 10% be used to spray clothing?
A Martins Permethrin 10% should NOT be applied to clothing. We do carry Tick Block which is specifically formulated for use on clothing. While both products do contain permethrin, the formulation of Martins Permethrin 10% contains materials that should not come into contact with your skin.
June 26, 2014 Alan asked:
QCan Martin's Permethrin 10% be used for thermal fogging with diesel?
Martin's Permethrin 10% is not labeled to be used in a fogger.
If you are looking for something to use in a thermal fogger to treat for various pests, such as mosquitoes, spiders, ants, etc., we would recommend using ULD BP-100. It is an oil based product that can be poured directly into the thermal fogger and does not need to be diluted.
June 19, 2014
Amanda from Indianapolis, In asked:
QWill Martins Permethrin 10% kill carpet beetles in the car? And, is it safe for children after it dries?
A We recommend that you get a proper identification of the beetle. It would be extremely odd to have carpet beetles in your car and in your office because they must have a food source that is of animal origin to survive and most cars and business offices do not have such a source. You should collect several samples of the insect and contact your local cooperative extension office to get an insect identification. Starting a treatment program without knowing exactly what you are dealing with is likely to lead to a treatment failure. Once you have a proper identification we would be happy to help advise you of the correct treatment.
June 18, 2014
Jackie from Proctor, Arkansas asked:
QWhat is the ratio for Martins Permethrin to spray barn and horse stalls?
Per the Martins Permethrin 10% product label you would use the following: 8 oz in 6.25 gallons of water 1 pt in 12.50 gallons of water 1 qt in 25 gallons of water.

Martins Permethrin 10% cannot be applied in a bird cage while the birds are present inside.
September 6, 2013
Andrea from Buford, Ga asked:
QWhat is the ratio of Martins Permethrin 10% for a 24 oz spray bottle? Can I spray it on my horse?
Yes, Martins Permethrin 10% can be applied top large animals such as horses. There is a dilution table on the product label for you to use. Martins Permethrin 10% is only labeled for larger dilution rates. Please contact Control Solutions 281-892-2500 to see what they would recommend breaking th dilution ratio down too.
September 5, 2013
Kim from Okc, Ok asked:
QAre there any risks to my indoor cats if using Martins Permethrin 10% outside or on our dog?
I understand this product cannot be used directly on the cats, but wanted to ensure that product would be safe as possible when used on yard or dog (the dog does stay inside as well)
Martins Permethrin 10% will not harm cats if they are kept out of the treated area until the area has dried. Yes, Martins Permethrin 10% is safe to use as a dip on dogs 12 weeks and older. Please refer to the product label for application instructions.
September 3, 2013
Rodney from Rockport Tx asked:
QCan Martins Permethrin 10% be sprayed with garden hose application for lawns?
Martins Permethrin 10% can be applied using a hose end sprayer. Please make sure to follow the product label for application as the same mixing ratio apply.

I have reviewed Farmers Guest House before on trip advisor and I am glad to say it is still the best B&B in Galena. I had another wonderful weekend away (this time girlfriends get-a-way for my Birthday!) and was amazed at all the improvements Susan & Don have made to the FGH. The robes in the rooms, the lap desks, the breakfasts, the massage studio, the redecorated rooms - look at their website to see the pictures of the rooms! They continue to setp up in every area to a standard of excellence. I appreciated Susan asking at our check in about dietary needs and accommodating my friends requests - really above and beyond. The biggest thing for me, that will keep me coming back, when I walk into my room or one of the common areas, I can tell that it has been cleaned. I am a germ-a-phobe in some ways and at FGH I am at ease because you can just tell that it is clean. Really clean, but not smelling like disinfectant. Actually I loved walking in to the smell of fresh baked cookies! Farmers Guest House is so very comfortable, welcoming, and relaxing. Totally love it!
5 su gennaio 17, 2015
From beginning to end, our expectations were exceeded. Hard to say what was the most delightful -- awesome vintage Xmas decor and then later the "normal" collection, the friendliness and knowledge and hospitality of Susan and Don, the innkeepers, the evening wine tasting, our comfortable thoughtfully appointed room or just simply the badly needed escape and pampering. Would definitely recommend without reservation, and hope to return this year.

The Farmer's Guest was our first time at a B&B and we're sold for the future! We had an ideal two night stay. The accommodations, common areas, and socializing met our very high expectations. We would strongly recommend this to anyone looking to stay in Galena, which was also a lot of fun with great dining options!

The Farmer's Guest House was our first B&B and we loved it! It was very clean and comfortable, the Christmas decor was amazing and the Julia suite we stayed in was very spacious and cozy. The breakfast was amazing and Don and Susan were very helpful. They were extremely nice and inviting and made us feel at home. The inn is within walking distance of Main St. And they also have a spa room on site so you can relax without having to leave. We will definitely stay again!

Great rooms, hospitality and breakfast. The hosts create a warm atmosphere and are very attentive to your needs. Highly recommend, we will visit again.

My husband and I stayed here for 4 days in July 2014, our first time at a bed & breakfast. What a wonderful experience we had! Susan and Don made us feel like "old friends" the minute we walked in the door. Don insisted on carrying our bags while Susan gave us a tour of the common rooms. Susan's breakfasts are delicious and Don is the perfect "waiter." Both were so helpful in every way, making reservations, giving helpful hints for activities on Main Street, providing directions, etc. Charles tidied up our room every day. Felt like royalty! We also enjoyed sitting in the living room to read in the evening. It was just like home. I was so impressed with Farmer's Guest House that I returned in November for a Quilt Retreat. Again the same ambience, kind and helpful service and such a good time. (Susan even remembered that my husband had one food allergy! And he wasn't even with this time.) Same wine time in the late afternoon with much comradery. I'm already signed up for the Quilt Retreat next November. I guess you can say that this is my (our) one and only B&B!

If you love Galena, and you love B&B's, this is one you should not miss. We had the most wonderful stay over Veterans Day. Our suite was absolutely wonderful, we couldn't have been more comfortable, and the hosts - Don & Susan - were so gracious and welcoming, felt like we were with old friends. So much to see at this wonderful lodging, I couldn't stop taking photos of all the marvelous decor, and even got a photo of our hosts. The food was fabulous, and the wine & cheese hour with all the other veterans and their spouses was a blast, what a perfect touch to the evening. Thank you so much for hosting all of us, you are truly a very special couple. And definitely in the right line of work, such a perfect fit. We definitely look forward to visiting again! Thank you for a wonderful experience!!!

Susan & Don were great hosts. They wanted to make sure everything was right for us. We had never stayed in a B&B before, and it was a great experience.

My wife and I stayed here recently for our tenth anniversary and were VERY pleased. I'm one of those shy people who likes Bed & Breakfasts in theory (it's nice to feel like you're staying in someone's home), but often find myself feeling uncomfortable (it can be awkward to feel like you're staying in someone's home.) Right from the moment we walked in, this place had all the warmth of a B&B without any of the awkwardness. The owner, Susan, made us feel right at home. You have access to all sorts of free stuff in a common area--a room that's super interesting but where you have the choice to mingle with others or hang out with your wife alone, without seeming unfriendly. We stayed in the Charlotte suite, which had its own door to the outside and was HUGE with a great hot tub and its own fireplace. Wine tastings at 5pm...not a wine drinker, but I kinda wished I had been. (My wife missed it one day and Susie went and got her a glass anyway.) The breakfast was AWESOME and they had veggie options for us--bonus. I always felt like Susan was there if I needed something, but I never once felt like I was intruding; so...bottom line: it had all the romance, warmth and intimacy you want for a romantic getaway, without sacrificing privacy. I've been to Galena about 4 times and stayed at 4 different places. This is where I'll stay next time I come. And the time after that. Oh! And get this: I forgot my charger. Susan just mailed it to us! That was so nice! : )

Plenty of hot coffee, fresh fruit and each day a different and delicious breakfast. The french toast was like none I've ever had. The entire place is very clean. Linens seemed to be fragrance free which I really appreciate. Guests are also invited to wine & cheese time each evening. I've stayed at several B & B's around the country and this was the friendliest one. Yet your privacy is respected at the same time. I stayed alone and felt very comfortable. I shall return!

Comments about Pirelli Night Dragon Motorcycle Tire:
I replaced my rear tire on my 2010 Harley Wide Glide with the Night Dragon. I've put about 500 miles on it so far and I like it. I don't push my bike too hard in corners, but the straight line traction is great. I shifted hard from first to second and pulled the front tire off the ground about an inch or so. The Dunlop that came on the bike would spin. It had 6,700 miles on it when I bought the bike, so I'm not sure how the Dunlop was when it was new. We'll see if I can get 10,000 miles out of the Pirelli. Price was the main reason I chose this tire.

so far so good
By tim w
from wayne city il
I ordered both front and rear night dragons for my 06 wide glide . pirelli is the only manufacture to make a 180/60b/ 17 rear other than Dunlop but you have to buy the Dunlop form a HD dealership. The tires came very quickly i did have to pay $8.95 for shipping but it was worth it and I couldn't have driven to the dealership for less than that I have installed them myself and have only put on a few hundred miles so I am not sure how they are going to be long term but first impression is they are every bit as good as what I took off.Verysatisfied with my purchase

I bought this tire knowing that pirelli has had a very good name in racing tires but little did i know that hitting one "small" pothole would bust the inner belt of the tire to ruins. I only got 1800 mile from this tire and I hope that Pirelli will back their product with a defect warranty. This is only my opinion formed from my experience with this tire and i will NEVER buy Pirelli again. If you do, well i wish you all the luck in the world!

SOUTH PLAINFIELD, N.J., Dec. 6, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- PTC Therapeutics, Inc. (PTC) today announced that the European Medicines Agency (EMA) has validated a Marketing Authorization Application (MAA) seeking conditional approval for ataluren, an investigational new drug for the treatment of patients with nonsense mutation Duchenne muscular dystrophy (nmDMD). Validation of the MAA confirms that the submission is complete and begins the EMA's Committee for Human Medicinal Products' (CHMP) review process. Ataluren is the only treatment currently in clinical development targeting the cause of disease in patients with a nonsense mutation.
(Logo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20010919/PTCLOGO)
"Ataluren is a promising potential therapy for nonsense mutation Duchenne muscular dystrophy," stated Dr. Thomas Voit, Medical and Scientific Director, Institut de Myologie. "PTC has developed a standard for DMD clinical trials and now the DMD community can share in the achievement of the first MAA ever filed for DMD. We appreciate PTC's commitment to the clinical development of ataluren for this severe disorder for which only palliative treatment options currently exist."
The Marketing Authorization Application's submission was accepted by EMA for review on the basis of a 48-week, 174-patient Phase 2b study showing that nmDMD patients treated with ataluren (10, 10, 20 mg/kg given daily) walked on average 31.3 meters farther than patients on placebo, as measured by the change in six-minute walk distance (6MWD) from baseline to Week 48. Patients receiving ataluren demonstrated a slower rate of decline in ambulation, based on an analysis of time to 10 percent worsening in 6MWD. While 44 percent of patients receiving placebo declined 10 percent or more in walking as measured by the 6-minute walk test (6MWT), only 26 percent of patients receiving ataluren declined 10 percent or more.

Ocean World
Ocean World aquarium is privately owned and operated and has been in Crescent City since 1964. Originally Ocean World was called Under Sea Gardens and was located in the small boat basin. It was a barge that was built in Seattle as an aquarium and floated down to Crescent City and rested in the harbor. Visitors would descend below the surface of the water to observation windows to view the sea life.
In 1985 the barge was moved to dry land and took on a new life as Undersea World aquarium. The aquarium now consists of tanks holding over half a million gallons and an abundance of sea life, including sharks, seals, sea lions, rays and wolf eels. Now with a name change to Ocean World and added attractions of shark petting, interactive tide pool, and a highflying sea lion performance, we have something for the whole family.
Tours run during daylight hours. Our tanks are naturally lit.
Tours take about 40 to 45 minutes.
Tours aren't on a specific schedule, so you'll never have to wait more than 20 minutes.- Eco-Tourism

Campobello is a wonderful island with spectacular views of the Bay of Fundy, outer islands, and towns in nearby Maine. We have a mile long beach that is pristine and never occupied by more than 20 or 30 people at one time. There are beautiful walking tours and 3 lighthouses in the area - two of which are on Campobello Island.

Crescent City Kite Festival
We fell into this activity and it was a great little find. Crescent City hosts an annual (for two whole years now-hehe) kite festival on the south beach shore as you enter town. There was actually a good sized group of people participating in the kite flying contest, plus lots of recreational kite flyers out and about. Great photo opp!
Get to the Redwoods, the park...
Get to the Redwoods, the park virtually surrounds Crescent City! We also enjoyed the Mammal Rescue Center at the point.

History The earliest mention of the Andhras is said to be in Aitereya Brahmana (2000 BC). It indicates that the Andhras, originally an Aryan race living in north India migrated to south of the Vindhyas and later mixed with non-Aryans. Regular history of Andhra Desa, according to historians, begins with 236 BC, the year of Ashoka's death. During the following centuries, Satavahanas, Sakas, Ikshvakus, Eastern Chalukyas, Kakatiyas ruled the Telugu country. Other dynasties that ruled over the area in succession were the kingdoms of Vijayanagar and Qutub Shahi followed by Mir Qumruddin and his successors, known as the Nizams. Gradually, from the 17th century onwards, the British annexed territories of the Nizam and constituted the single province of Madras. After Independence, Telugu-speaking areas were separated from the composite Madras Presidency and a new Andhra State came into being on 1 October 1953. With the passing of the States Reorganisation Act, 1956, there was a merger of Hyderabad State and Andhra State, and consequently Andhra Pradesh came into being on 1 November 1956.
Andhra Pradesh is historically called the Rice Bowl of India. The State has a large river system which supplements the rainfall in the State. It is one of the few States in the country blessed with riverine geography.
Andhra Pradesh is bound on the north by Odisha and Chhattisgarh, on the west by Maharashtra and Karnataka, on the south by Tamil Nadu and on the east by the Bay of Bengal with a coastline of 974 km.

"Popular leadership blogger gives the low-down on standing up for yourselfIn Pushback, top leadership consultant Selena Rezvani argues that self-advocacy is critical to success. Yet women initiate negotiations four times less often than men, resulting in getting less of what they want--promotion opportunities, plum assignments, and higher pay. This book shines a light on the real rules of holding your own and pushing back for what is rightfully yours. Drawing on interviews with high-level leaders, Rezvani offers readers in the first half of their career the unedited truth about how women have asked their way to the top and triumphed--and how you can too. Includes interviews with top business leaders such as Marie Chandoha, CEO of Charles Schwab Investment Management; Cindi Bigelow, President of Bigelow Tea Company; Fizzah Jafri, COO at Morgan Stanley; Rosemary Turner, President at UPS; and Irene Chang Britt, Chief Strategy Officer at Campbell's Soup Offers a reliable and methodic approach to negotiating and navigating tough conversations Highlights compelling facts and research from the world of psychology and leadership Insightful and accessible, Pushback is a timely resource for savvy women who want to leverage their skills, promote themselves effectively, and fast track their careers"--

Looking for a Fleet with Good numbers on EU time - Fed!

If you are over 30 years old and looking for a relaxed fleet then you should at least check-out the TOS Veterans Fleet. We are a medium sized fleet spread out over two continents and we are a lot of fun. We may be established but since we are casual it seems to have a good mix of people on to do whatever you want. But not too many that you get lost in the crowd. Our UK side of the fleet has grown to about 25 people and there seems to be a good mix of newbies and serious gamers. The one thing we all have in common is that we are (becoming) middle aged, we love everything Star Trek and we want to hang with same minded people.
We have no rules, nothing is mandatory and no bosses.
Check out our
recruiting forum
for more information or visit our website at
We also have a very active Klingon fleet called the
TOS Qan Mang
Sorry if this looks like a cut-and-paste (because it is) but I am at work and I am being paged to get to my meeting. I will be glad to tell you more when my boss goes for lunch LOL

Executive Summary
Knowledge of the nature of the subsurface is critical for many environmental
purposes and engineering applications. Projects requiring subsurface character-
ization are estimated to cost several trillion dollars over the next few decades.
There is a need to "see into the earth," to determine physical, chemical, and
biological properties and to detect, monitor, and predict natural and induced
Direct or invasive methods of characterization (such as drilling and excava-
tion) often can be expensive, cause disruption to human activities, and in some
cases, create unnecessary damage to the environment. Drilling provides, in es-
sence, a one-dimensional sample; multiple drillholes allow interpolation between
such points but significant uncertainties can remain.
The primary questions addressed by this study are: (1) How effectively can
the shallow subsurface be imaged and characterized noninvasively? (2) Can the
use of noninvasive methods increase the confidence of our characterization
A large suite of noninvasive methods has been developed and refined over
the past few decades. Noninvasive methods for characterization of subsurface
properties and processes are indirect. Interpretations are based on measured re-
sponse of the subsurface to artificial or natural stimuli. Passive investigations use
naturally occurring fields (the earth' s gravity, magnetic, electric, thermal, radio-
metric, stress, solar irradiation, and hydraulic fields). For example, perturbations
in the earth's gravity field are used to infer changes in the material density.
Active investigations use a source of energy (e.g., seismic energy, radar pulses,
electrical inputs) that creates a known field, and observations are made of the
perturbations in that field or in the response of the earth. For example, seismic
investigations use vibratory or explosive sources to propagate elastic waves, and

travel times, wavelet changes, and scattering are measured to describe the hetero-
geneity of the shallow subsurface as well as the interior of the earth.
There is great potential for these methods to define subsurface details with a
level of accuracy, precision, economy, and safety that can approach direct sam-
pling but with a much greater areal coverage. (At all sites one needs to be cogni-
zant of the various types of noise or other disturbances that might diminish the
utility of one or more specific techniques.) Realizing the potential for noninvasive
characterization will require concerted and cooperative interdisciplinary efforts
by earth scientists, geotechnical engineers, government agencies, and the user
community. Two broad areas of effort are discussed. First, additional research and
development would improve and extend the capabilities of many noninvasive meth-
ods. Second, existing tools and methods are quite adequate for many characteriza-
tion activities but are not being widely used in practice for a number of reasons-
a major focus of this report is on improving the use of existing methods.
During the past two decades, advances in computing and microelectronics
stimulated the production of an impressive array of tools and techniques for
noninvasive characterization of the shallow subsurface. For the most part, these
advances made existing tools and techniques faster, cheaper, or more effective.
There have been relatively few fundamental innovations with regard to the phe-
nomena being observed or the sensing devices that convert these phenomena into
electrical signals. Additional research and development (R&D) is needed to en-
hance and extend current capabilities and to develop new measurement tech-
niques (see Box 1~.
Noninvasive site characterization would probably be used more frequently
and efficiently if much of the data acquisition, data processing, and decision
making could be automated. Automation, which will not replace skilled practitio-
ners, could significantly increase the knowledge base that practitioners can use to
accomplish their jobs. By producing a better result, more rapidly and at lower
cost, robotics and decision support systems could be the key to more and more
effective use of noninvasive site characterization methods. Automation of site
characterization allows measurements and preliminary interpretations to be made
in real time.
Characterization problems are complex and multifaceted. Noninvasive meth-
ods, ranging from electromagnetic and seismic techniques to remote sensing by
aircraft and satellites to on-site soil-gas surveys, must be selectively used to
provide complementary information that enhances our ability to resolve subsur-
face features. Basic research on physical, chemical, and biological properties is
needed to establish fundamental relationships, including coupled relationships,
that improve capabilities for rigorous interpretation. A significant effort should
be directed to develop scientific visualization technology that is aimed at substan

tially enhancing three-dimensional interpretations based on multiple data sets. In
addition, visualization technologies will help make the interpretations easier for
decision makers to understand.
The spatial and temporal resolution demanded in a specific characterization
study is a major factor in the choice of method, and resolution normally is a
function of the scale of the survey. An understanding of resolution requirements
and capabilities is essential to informed choice and application of specific tech-
niques and will provide important guidance in establishing research priorities.
Ongoing basic research is essential if we are to develop high-resolution tech-
niques for application in a variety of geological conditions. Testing of data acqui-
sition and analysis procedures to assess and improve the capabilities of existing
technologies is needed. Integration of data from other invasive and noninvasive
methods can be used to "verify" new capabilities, but one has to ensure that
validations do not involve circular reasoning.
Historically, site characterization has focused on mapping the geometry of
OCR for page 1
the subsurface (e.g., location of anomalies, shape of boundaries). However, physi-
cal, chemical, and biological properties and processes may be as important as
geometry and require greater emphasis in both research and practice. Fundamen-
tal studies should be expanded and developed to establish theoretical and phe-
nomenological relationships among the responses measured using noninvasive
methods and the properties and processes of interest in environmental and engi-
neering problems of the shallow subsurface. These studies could include con-
trolled standard test sites and variable-scale testing that would involve both labo-
ratory testing of cores and full-scale multitechnique examinations of relevant
field sites.
In many cases especially those involving groundwater, waste management,
and hazards subtle changes from a preestablished baseline are more important
than current conditions. Fortunately, properly designed surveys often can moni-
tor changes with high resolution.
Rigorous computer models based on an understanding of physical, chemical,
and biological processes are underutilized in the understanding and interpretation
of site investigation measurements. Modeling is necessary to allow firm linkage
of the parameters of interest to the properties and processes occurring in the earth.
Models could allow optimization of survey design, resolution of uncertainties
and limitations associated with data acquisition, and validation of interpretations.
There are many existing computer modeling programs that are potentially useful,
but they must be catalogued, documented, and made both user friendly and easily
accessible to fulfill their potential.
Much of this report focuses on the improvement, or improved use, of exist-
ing technologies. These technologies primarily measure physical properties and
processes; a few measure selected chemical properties and processes; and cur-
rently, few if any are routinely applicable to subsurface biological properties and
processes. There exists tremendous potential for the development of new meth-
ods that would allow the acquisition of more information about the chemical and
biological state of the subsurface. To date, there has been little communication
among geochemists, geophysicists, and geobiologists regarding the possible ex-
tension of existing measurement techniques to determine a different type of prop-
erty (e.g., geochemical measurements to determine geobiological processes). New
development has to focus on measuring new chemical and biological properties
and processes as well as better processing, modeling, visualization, and concur-
rent utilization of the data from all measurements. Controlled test sites should be
established for long-term research and used to validate the measurement-data
processing-modeling-interpretation systems and to facilitate regulatory approval.
Many current needs for near-surface characterization can be met with exist-
ing tools and techniques, but these tools and techniques are not widely used.

Much of the site characterization conducted today uses techniques that are more
than 20 years old. Widespread adoption of effective tools and techniques that
currently exist offers the single greatest opportunity for dramatic, short-term
improvement in site characterization (see Box 2~.
Many clients and practitioners often exclude noninvasive tools in their arsenal
of methods for subsurface characterization. For the demand for noninvasive tech-
nologies to increase, the techniques must be demonstrated either as being cost-
effective or as providing information that is unavailable any other way. However,
many potential clients today perceive characterization tools as increasing costs
without providing a commensurate additional value. Their primary objective com-
monly is to satisfy externally imposed requirements (e.g., building codes, environ-
mental regulations) at minimum cost. Many clients and practitioners rely on "tried-
and-true" characterization methods rather than innovative noninvasive methods.
To overcome this lack of incentive, case studies should be publicized that analyze
the possible cost-effective use of noninvasive site characterization.
The gap between the state of knowledge and the state of practice in noninva-
sive methods can be addressed by improved communication with and education
of practitioners (e.g., contractors who conduct the measurements in the field)
regarding advances in techniques and methods. In addition, communication and
education on noninvasive characterization methods should be extended to clients
and regulators (who write specifications) and the general public. These efforts
should include expanded university curricula and training, continuing education
opportunities for practitioners and users, and general public education.

The simplest saladitas in my repertoire are the ones that pair a single fruit with just one fresh herb. These are as flexible as they are easy. Extra-virgin olive oil, fresh lemon or lime juice, and salt and pepper are all optional. A small pile of Pickled Red Onions is always welcome on top. Make these shortly before serving.
- 1 ripe nectarine
- 1 tablespoon fresh thyme leaves
- Extra-virgin olive oil
- Lime wedge
- 1 small, ripe cantaloupe
- 12 fresh basil leaves
- 2 crisp apples
- Splash of fresh lemon juice or cider vinegar
- Handful of fresh flat-leaf parsley
- Extra-virgin olive oil
- Seeds from 1 large pomegranate
- 25 fresh mint leaves
- 2 fresh mangoes (or 2 cups frozen mango chunks)
- Fresh lime juice
- 2 handfuls cilantro
- Crushed red pepper
Nectarine-Thyme Saladita
Pit and slice a perfectly ripe nectarine, then cut the slices in half. Toss in about a tablespoon of fresh thyme leaves, stripped from the stems with your fingers. Serve right away—plain, or with a cruet of extra-virgin olive oil and a wedge of lime.
Cantaloupe-Basil Saladita
Peel and seed a small, ripe cantaloupe. Cut the flesh into 1/2-inch dice or even smaller and place it in a bowl. Shortly before serving, add about a dozen minced fresh basil leaves and serve soon thereafter.
Apple-Parsley Saladita
Core and chop a crisp apple or two and toss with a small splash of fresh lemon juice or cider vinegar. Throw in a handful of minced fresh flat-leaf parsley. Drizzle with a little extra-virgin olive oil.
Pomegranate-Mint Saladita
Extract the seeds from a large pomegranate and place them in a bowl. Shortly before serving, toss with about 25 minced fresh mint leaves and serve pronto. I highly recommend Pickled Red Onions as an accompaniment.
Mango-Cilantro Saladita
Peel, pit, and cut 2 fresh mangoes (or 2 cups frozen mango chunks) into 1/4-inch dice and splash with up to 2 tablespoons fresh lime juice. Just before serving, toss with a handful or two of cilantro, minced, and a sprinkling of crushed red pepper, if you like. Serve right away. It's great with Pickled Red Onions.
