When use Mediatomb-0.8.1, I think I find a big problem.
I select a DVD Media file with .vob format(size:588M) to play in Mediatomb. Mediatomb firstly transfers all the DVD file data to Client, then until after transfered the DVD file data, it begins to play the DVD file in Client. When transfering DVD file data, it takes about 13-15M/sec bandwith. I think it takes too much. And because the DVD file is big, so it takes too much time to wait the DVD file to be played. And also it stores a copy of DVD file in Client, it takes too much disk space of Client.
In my opinion, when playing a media file, it will only take a little disk space or memory to buffer a period media data and then play the buffered media data immediately, but not buffer a whole media file and then to play. And when transfering the buffer data, it shuldn't take so much bandwith I think.
That's just my opinion, and hope will get a good solution or introduction to this problem.
Best Regards,
this is not a problem of the server, it's the problem of the client that you are using.
The server is just offering the data, the client decides whether it will download the whole file or stream the media directly, we have no influence on that.

Claims(4) 1. A plant for sintering or melting ceramic or refractory products, comprising means provided with a cavity for receiving such products, an electric current supply, means for generating microwave power, means for feeding said current to said generating means, means for delivering said power to said cavity to heat a product therein, means for detecting the temperature of a product in said cavity and generating a corresponding electric signal, means for comparing said signal with a reference value and generating a differential electric signal, a driving electronic device responsive to said differential signal, means electrically connecting said device to said electric current feeding means for controlling said electric current feeding means to control the value of the microwave power delivered to said cavity to reduce said signal differential to zero, a coupling ring associated with said cavity, a detector with crystal connected with said ring for generating a voltage signal, an amplifying circuit for said voltage signal connected with said detector, a contactor with a predetermined threshhold value responsive to said amplified signal, and a driving electronic device provided with a time-circuit RC and connected with said contactor to interrupt delivery of said power to said cavity when the value of said amplified signal exceeds said predetermined threshhold, said last-mentioned driving electronic device restoring delivery of power to the cavity when the time determined by the time-circuit RC elapses after the amplified signal has fallen under said threshhold value.
2. A plant according to claim 1, wherein said second driving electronic device controls said current feeding means.
3. A plant according to claim 1, including a nonreversible element provided with an adjustable magnetic field and disposed between said generating means and cavity for controlling the microwave power delivered to the cavity, said second driving electronic device controlling said adjustable magnetic field.
4. A plant for sintering or melting ceramic or refractory products, comprising a cavity for receiving such products, an electric current supply, means for generating microwaves, means for feeding said current to said generating means, means for injecting the microwaves into said cavity to heat a product therein, and means responsive to fall in the over-voltage in the cavity for interrupting said injection of microwaves into said cavity for periods of time short enough to avoid appreciable reduction in temperature of the products within the cavity but close enough together to maintain the intervals of time between successive interruptions shorter than the time required to produce charge emissions in said cavity.
Description The invention relates to a process and plants for sintering ceramic or refractory products and submitting said products to be sintered, which are previously pre-heated at a determined temperature, to the action of an aternative electromagnetic field, in particular a microwave field, so as to bring them to a sintering temperature. The word "sintering" must be understood very broadly. The sintering operation properly speaking consists in raising the temperature of a compact powdered material until the granules of the powdered material reach a superficial melting and thus weld together in order to substitute the compacted mass having a weak cohesion for a mass showing a strong cohesion and good mechanical properties. When it is applied to ceramic products, and in particular to ceramic products based on alumina or any other refractory oxides, such a sintering operation makes it possible to obtain pieces showing a strong mechanical resistance. However, obviously all the arrangements known can be used such as they are, to obtain any possible stages in sintering operations, from the single sticking of the granules of the material together through small superficial melting beginnings to a total melting of said granules and the obtention of a mass fully melted. Also, obviously the arrangements known can without any modification make it possible to bring the material up to any temperature lower than the sintering one. The purpose of the present invention is to bring new improvements to known plants, in particular as regards the coefficient of utilization of the microwave power and the regulation of said power. To this end, the invention relates to a plant consisting of a means for detecting the temperature of the product to be processed, a means for comparing the value of the signal received from said detecting means with a registered value, so as to generate a differential signal or signal of error, and a means for acting, depending on said signal of error, on the value of the microwave power injected in the wave-guide or the sounding cavity, so as to have the value of the signal of error tended to zero. In one embodiment of the invention, the means for acting on the microwave power injected into the wave-guide or the sounding cavity is a driving electronic means adjusting the current feeding the microwave generator through thyristors. According to a further embodiment of the invention, the means acting on the microwave power injected into the wave-guide or the sounding cavity, is a driving electronic device adjusting the magnetic field of a non-reversible element carrying an adjustable magnetic field which regulates the microwave power feeding the sounding cavity. Advantageously, the means for detecting the temperature of the product is a radiation pyrometer. In order to subdue the interference phenomena, the plant comprises a coupling ring on the wave-guide or the sounding cavity, a detector with crystal connected to said ring, a amplifying circuit of the signal issued by said detector, a contactor with a threshold coupling means connected with the shunting circuit, and a driving electronic device carrying a temporized circuit RC, to interrupt the injection of microwave power inside the wave-guide or the cavity when the value of the amplified signal is over the threshold determined and to restore it after the time determined by the RC circuit elapses, when the shunted signal has dropped back below the value of the threshold. Temporized RC circuits are standard and should not require a detailed description herein. The purpose of such a circuit in this plant is to delay by a predetermined period of time the resetting of the hyperfrequential power injected into the cavity. The invention will be explained in detail by means of various non-limitative examples of modes of embodiment shown in the drawings attached hereto wherein: FIG. 1 is a diagrammatical view of a plant according to the invention, wherein the temperature of the product to be processed is adjusted through the control of the power provided by the generator of microwave. FIG. 2 is a diagrammatical view of a plant according to the invention wherein the temperature of the product to be processed is adjusted through the control of the power injected into the cavity, thanks to the action of a device positioned between the generator of microwaves and said cavity. FIG. 3 is a diagrammatical view of a plant according to the invention, wherein intervening of interference phenomena, such as charge deliveries, is stopped through the temporary interruption of the power injection in the sounding cavity. In FIG. 1, the reference 1 designates the whole of the electric and electronic fittings provided to feed, through a connection 2, a generator 3 of microwaves such as a magnetron or a klystron, from a power source 4 not shown with more detail. A circulator 6, itself connected by two wave-guides 7 and 8 with the sounding cavity 9 and a charge 10, respectively, is connected with the generator 3 of microwaves. The purpose of the circulator 6 is to return, towards the charge 10, through the wave-guide 8, the power reflected by the sounding cavity 9 towards the circulator 6 through the wave-guide 7. Thus, the circulator 6 protects the generator of microwaves 3 against the impact of a great power reflected by the cavity, for example in case the latter would be out of adjustment. So as to obtain such a result, the circulator 6 is definitely adjusted so that the microwave power be canalized according to arrows in succession f1, f2, f3 and f4. The sounding cavity 9 is arranged so as to concentrate the electric field on the products to be processed 11, which for example move along the axis YY' of the sounding cavity in the direction of arrow F. Besides the two apertures provided along the axis of the cavity so as to allow traveling of the products to be processed, and the aperture connecting the wave-guide 7 with the interior of the cavity, a fourth aperture 12 is provided in the wall of the cavity. Said aperture 12 makes it possible to detect on a pyrometer 13 the radiation delivered by the product to be processed 11. Preferably, the pyrometer 13 will be sensitive to infra-red radiations in a band with a narrow frequency. The output of the pyrometer, possibly corrected in view of the variation of the emitting power of the product to be processed, results in an electric signal, for example a continuous power level, which is brought through a connection 14 to a driving and processing electronic device 15. Said device compares the value of the signal received from the pyrometer 13 with a value of reference, the difference thus obtained constituting a signal of error. Depending on the sign and the amplitude of said signal of error, the electronic device 15 will operate, through a connection 16, feeding device 1 of the generator of microwaves so as to release, in the direction sought, a suitable variation in the amplitude of the microwave power thus generated. By way of example, should the generator of microwaves be a magnetron fed through impulses, the device 15 can act so as to get impulses changed in relation to the period thereof. Should, according to a further example, the generator of microwaves be a magnetron stimulated continuously, the device 15 will regulate the feeding current of the magnetron through the thyristors. These means of regulation of the microwave power, being known in themselves, do not belong to the present invention and, then, will not be described with more detail. The chain of regulation described hereabove is essentially different from those already known in that the temperature of the products is detected according to it by means of a pyrometer with radiations, while according to the known devices the dielectric characteristics of the products to be processed, which themselves depend on the temperature, are measured by means of a microwave field. Regulation of the temperature of the products to be processed through adjustment of the power delivered by the generator of microwaves has the great advantage, and exceptional as regards thermic regulation, to intervene within an extremely short period of response. This is the result, on the one hand, of the exclusively electronic nature of the devices used to detect the temperature, processing of the signals and driving of the generator of microwaves and, on the other, of the way of generating heat inside the very body of the product to be processed, through a molecular stirring whose amplitude variations instantaneously follow the variations of the microwave power generated. On the contrary, in all standard processes of heating through radiation, the variations of the heat absorbed by the product to be processed are broadly offset in time in relation to the variations of the power supplied to the processing furnace, in view of the thermic inertia of the radiant elements, particularly the walls of the furnace. A further advantage of the type of regulation just described, through adjustment of the power delivered by the generator of microwaves, is that the power taken at the corresponding current supplied from the mains, in view of the energetic outputs of the generator of microwaves and of the feeding circuits thereof, corresponds to the minimum required, which is of a real economical interest when high-power plants are involved. On the other hand, when smaller plants will be involved, it will often be of interest to operate the generator of microwaves at a constant power, close to its maximal power, and to regulate the temperature of the product to be processed by varying the fraction of said constant power injected inside the wave-guide or the sound cavity. The devices required to vary said useful fraction of the hyperfrequential power being simpler and cheaper than those required to act upon feeding of the microwave generator, a simpler and cheaper plant is thus achieved, a most important power having to be taken from the mains as a counterpart. FIG. 2 shows a plant wherein the temperature of the product to be processed is regulated through this second process. The plant shown in FIG. 2 consists of all the components constituting the plant shown in FIG. 1, which bear the same references therein. Furthermore, it carries a "non-reversible element with an adjustable magnetic field" 17, inserted on the wave-guide 7 between the circulator 6 and the sounding cavity 9. Said non-reversible element with an adjustable field can be of various types. For example, it can consist of a reducer or a circulator, etc. . . . Depending on the adjustment of its magnetic field, it will allow a more or less great fraction of the microwave power to pass towards the sounding cavity 9. Adjustment of the megnetic field of the element 17 will be ensured, through the connection 16, by the driving and processing device 15 which will control said adjustment depending on the signal of error which it will have elaborated by comparing with a value of reference the value transmitted by the pyrometer 13. Of course, and as it is the case in the plant shown in FIG. 1, the pyrometer 13 could be substituted there for a device using a microwave field of measure. As in the case of the chain of regulation shown in FIG. 1, the time of response of the regulation shown in FIG. 2 is extremely short. The experience shows that when the temperature of the products heated through a microwave field reaches a high level, over 1500� C. for example, phenomena of interference occur which especially result in release of charges (electrons or ions sometimes). Said charges are canalized within the electric field and a conducting charge of space may appear, which causes falling of the over-voltage of the cavity and, thereby, falling of the thermic effect generated inside the product to be processed, which quickly gets cold. Of course, it is required to subdue intervening of this phenomenon when it is sought to process products at a high temperature. FIG. 3 shows a plant which can involve all the elements constituting the plant described by making reference to FIG. 1, or those of the plant described by making reference to FIG. 2, those of said elements shown in FIG. 3 bearing the same references as in FIGS. 1 and 2. Thus, the constituting elements 1 to 10 and 17, are still shown in FIG. 3 while, by way of simplification, the specific constituting elements of the regulation of the temperature, namely: 12 to 16 of FIGS. 1 and 2, have not been shown again in said FIG. 3. On the other hand, FIG. 3 shows the following constituting elements not shown in FIGS. 1 or 2: a coupling ring 18, fitted onto the sounding cavity 9; a detector with crystal 19 connected with the ring 18 and whose outlet ends to a amplifying circuit 21; a contactor with a threshold value 23, whose inlet 22 is connected with the amplifying circuit 21 and the outlet thereof with a driving electronic device 25 carrying a time-circuit RC. The whole of said constituting elements works as follows: When the over-voltage of the cavity is normal, a certain power is transmitted to the coupling ring 18, and the detector with crystal 19 changes said power into a proportional voltage. Should a conducting space charge appear inside the cavity, the cavity over-voltage falls down, generating the fall of the power transmitted to the coupling ring 18 and then that of the outlet voltage of the detector 19. Said fall in the voltage is changed by the amplifying circuit 21 into a signal having a strong amplitude which releases the contactor with a threshold value 23 which then sets up the communication with the driving electronic device 25. Applying the signal coming from the circuit 21 at the inlet 24 of the device 25 results in two consequences, namely: the instantaneous total interruption of the microwave power feeding of the cavity 9; the charge of the circuit RC of the electronic device 25. The instantaneous interruption of the microwave power feeding of the cavity 9 is performed, either through a direct action of the hyperfrequential generator feeding 1 (through the connection 16' shown with dash lines), or through an action on a nonreversible element 17 (through the connection 16" shown with full lines), the first alternative preferably applying to a plant as shown in FIG. 1, and the second to a plant such as shown in FIG. 2. The interruption of the power thus achieved instantaneously interrupts charge emissions inside the cavity. Furthermore, it instantaneoulsy originates a null value, then a constant one, the power transmitted to the ring 18, then also the inlet signal in the shunting circuit 21 which, consequently, transmits a null outlet signal, causing opening of the contactor 23 with a threshold value. Then, the circuit RC of the device 25 discharges. When said discharge is over, the microwave power injected inside the cavity 9 retakes its former value, that is to say, the value it had just before the conducting space charge appeared. The threshold value of the contactor 23 can be adjusted as well as those of R and C within the circuit RC being a part of the device 25. Then, it is possible by adjusting the threshold value, on the one hand, to determine the limit of the intensity of the phenomenon of the emission of charges beyond which the process described hereabove does release and, on the other, by adjusting the time-constant of the circuit RC, to determine the interval of time between two interruptions of the microwave power injection inside the cavity. Each interruption must last sufficiently so as to neutralize the phenomenon of formation of a conducting space charge and, however, sufficiently short so that the temperature of the product to be processed does not notably decrease in view of the interruption of the microwave action. Thus, in this process for removing interference phenomena, advantage is taken of the thermic inertia of the product to be processed, in comparison to the very small inertia of the detecting electronic circuits, and of the processing and driving circuits as well. Of course, the invention is not limited to the modes of embodiment described and depicted hereabove, from which other modes and methods of embodiment can be provided without thereby departing from the scope of the invention.

"Along with a short retrospective essay by Ms. Lippard, chapters by the exhibition's organizers, Catherine Morris and Vincent Bonin, clearly and engagingly explicate a genre so casual observers often find stupefyingly obscure. The book should be required reading for anyone seeking a deeper understanding of this still powerful influence of theory on art today." — The New York Times"Materializing Six Years: Lucy R. Lippard and the Emergence of Conceptual Art is as lavish a publication as the original is modest. It includes 200 images,and it's a treat — and kind of a bibliophilic joke — to see these black-and-white photographs, diagrams, typescripts, and postcards printed in color, so that creamy paper looks creamy and ballpoint pen can be told apart from pencil." — Bomb

One of my goals in doing apologetics is finding solid and helpful books on any number of topics. An old truism is, "Leaders are readers." So how do we find good books and avoid bad ones?
Ratio Christi (Latin for 'The Reason of Christ') is a global movement that equips university students and faculty to give historical, philosophical, and scientific reasons for following Jesus Christ. Bringing together faith and reason to establish the intellectual voice of Christ in the University, Ratio Christi is planting student led apologetics clubs at universities around the world. Students, engaged in the battle for the mind, learn to defend God's existence, the reliability of the Bible, and the fact of Christ's resurrection. We seek a Renaissance of Christian Thinking in the University.

The Midwest High Speed Rail Association (MHSRA) and local leaders proposed a $12-billion, 220-miles-per-hour high-speed rail line that would cut the trip between Chicago and St. Louis to slightly more than two hours.
The electric-powered service would also serve Kankakee, Champaign-Urbana, Decatur and Springfield, and would complement new 110-miles-per-hour lines already proposed for other parts of Illinois and the Midwest.
MHSRA is asking the state of Illinois to seek $10 million in ARRA funds to conduct a detailed alternatives analysis and environmental study for the Chicago-St. Louis route, which would pave the way for a formal request of funding through Congress.
"Ultra-fast trains are green, efficient transportation that brings people closer, stimulates the economy and creates jobs," said Rick Harnish, executive director of the MHSRA. "It's the right investment at a time when we look to curb our emissions and our dependence on oil, while helping jump-start growth."
The proposal is based on a study commissioned by the MHSRA and conducted by transportation planning experts TranSystems. It concluded that the best route for achieving 220 miles-per-hour speeds with existing rights-of-way was to link St. Louis and Chicago via Decatur, Champaign-Urbana and Springfield.
Based on projects elsewhere in the country, it is estimated the Chicago-St. Louis rail line project would create up to 60,000 construction-related jobs and 170,000 permanent jobs. Building the new trains in the U.S. could also help reinvigorate the manufacturing sector; Alstom, the largest high-speed train manufacturer in Europe, employs more people than plane giant Airbus.

HSBC cuts GDP growth forecast to 2.8% for 2013
- Published: 16 Sep 2013 at 00.00 | Viewed: 3,850 | Comments: 2

- Writer: Oranan Paweewun
HSBC has slashed its expansion forecasts for Thailand to 2.8% this year and 4.4% next year after downbeat economic growth in the first half.
''It's a story of overshoot in 2012 and undershoot in 2013. The 2014 economy could return closer to trend growth,'' says Ms Lim. THANARAK KHOONTON
The government should allocate more of its budget to ensuring more sustainable growth, said HSBC's Asean economist Su Sian Lim.

Emmanuel Renaut is one of the leading figures in modern French cuisine. After working with, amongst others, Christian Constant and Marc Veyrat, he settled in Megève in 1998, in a region that today he could no longer bear to leave…
I probably decided to live in the mountains even before deciding to become a chef. As a small child, I spent my summer and winter holidays in the shadow of permanently snow-covered peaks in Saint-Gervais-les-Bains and Les Houches. Later on, I did my military service in the mountain infantry in Chambéry. Then I had the opportunity to work alongside Marc Veyrat, which introduced me to another mountain. I like to walk through the mountain pastures and pick flowers and gather plants or mushrooms. As soon as the snow arrives, I strap on my skis or snowshoes and get away from it all. My skis are never too far from the kitchen…

This was not the book I needed. A picture of the book online would have been helpful.
I sent this book back because there is a difference in chapter questions. Still haven't received my refund. Confirmed shipping.
Delivered on time, but read description. Pictured book May not be the same book pictured, because the international edition has a different cover. The material is essentially the same though.
Received my textbook today! Amazing time!! I chose express service. I was told it would be shipped on the next business day (Monday), and I would receive it in 2 to 6 days. It was here Tuesday!
This order was placed paying expedited and got shipped to the wrong address. No response from the company we are going on 4 days now and still no response or book.
Loved the book! Exactly what I was looking for..and at a great bargain price!
I ordered the wrong version and sent it back 3 weeks ago and have not received my refund yet. I'm really disappointed that it is taking so long to get my money back.
shipping company DHL was terrible, lost book, very late with delivery, no future orders from me!!!
Shipped faster than expected. Items came exactley how they were described.
The book was an international version with a few defference on the content and I wasn't advised.
I was really upset when I saw that the book I received wasn't the same as the prefilled picture on website. I paid for one thing and got something different.
*This is the seller's all-time positive feedback score, calculated by the number of positive ratings / (positives + negatives)

Goldman Sachs' New CFO Only Looks Like He'd Break All Your Fingers With His Handshake, Assures Chief Of Staff

Is TOS the best sci-fi TV American series until 1985?

Re: Is TOS the best sci-fi TV American series until 1985?

When BSG aired, I thought it was so awesome... finally a sci-fi TV show with Star Wars quality SFX. Yet it failed to deliver good stories. So much potential. I really thought I'd find TOS "stale" after getting hooked on BSG. But as the show meandered across a number of directions, and showed so much repetitive SFX, I realized that it could never hold a candle to TOS. I enjoyed UFO and Space:1999 (to a degree), but their production values and episode plots seriously paled in comparison to Star Trek. Space:1999 had a lot of potential, what with Brian Johnston and Derek Meddings working their SFX and model magic. But Anderson once again stumbled with the premise, at first trying too hard to appeal to the intellectuals, then swinging too far in the other direction of appealing to the youth craving easy to digest entertainment (partly due to Fred Freiberger).
I think part of the reason why such a strong fan base built up around Star Trek was the very lack of alternative sci-fi TV programs that could match it.
Derek Meddings only worked on UFO not Space:1999. Star Trek and Space:1999 have Fred Freiberger in common.

What's On This Week
A daily updated summary of the week in TV.
From All Movie Guide: Mario Soldati is perhaps best known as a novelist and non-fiction writer, but he is also a noted director. Following graduation from the University of Turin, he moved to the United States in the late '20s to continue his studies. Eventually he got a teaching position at Columbia University in New York. After an unsuccessful bid for American citizenship, Soldati returned to Italy in 1931 to join the production company Cines. He wasn't there long before he began working as a lead scriptwriter and an assistant director. As a scenarist, he provided screenplays for such noted directors as Blasetti, Walther Ruttmann, and Augusto Genina. He was also closely associated with Mario Camerini as both a scriptwriter and assistant director. In 1939, Soldati made his feature-film directorial debut with the comedy Dora Nelson. From then through the 1950s, Soldati became known for competently directing commercially oriented adventures and comedies. Eschewing the notion of cinema as high art, Soldati did not hide his motives for making movies -- they paid better than writing books. Still, some of his early films remain highly regarded, especially his literary adaptations of 19th century author Antonio Foazzaro's novels Piccolo mondo antico (Old Fashioned World) (1941) and Malombra (1942). In 1956, Soldati worked as a second-unit director on the American-Italian epic War and Peace. In 1959, he played the same role for Ben-Hur. After that, he focused more on writing novels and the occasional screenplay. ~ Sandra Brennan, Rovi

BoT not worried by rising loan rejections

- Newspaper section: Business
- Writer: Pradit Ruangdit
A considerable increase in loan rejection rates at commercial banks is not worrisome while the proportion of bad auto loans remains steady, a senior central bank official said.
The rise in loan rejection rates could be the case of applicants having higher debt obligations while their incomes remain the same, assistant governor Salinee Wangtal said yesterday.
The upward trend is not worrisome and no intervention by the Bank of Thailand is necessary, she said, adding it is adequate to keep monitoring the situation.

Peru –
Vargas, Guerro, Carrilo, Cruzado, Ballon, Avila, Yotun, callenas, Zambrano, Advincula, Fernandez
Head to Head –
These two teams played 45 matches against each other before this match. Among those matches Peru won 10 matches while Paraguay dominated by winning 22 matches. The other 13 match didn't produce any result for either team.
Last match between this two teams ended in a victory for Paraguay.
Preview –
Paraguay is in 2 match loosing streak at the moment when they go to meet Peru. Even after having such a good result against Peru, they will have to play as the underdogs due their recent poor result. They have only 1 win and 2 draws in their last 5 matches. In these 5 matches they allowed 6 goals against them while they scored 4 goals. Their offense and defense seemed very lacking and thus they are performing very poorly. Even after having an amazing player like Cruz, they are struggling. They need a better team performance if they want to make an impact.
Peru is in far better shape in the field than Paraguay. If we compare there last 5 matches then we see, their 3 match winning streak came to a halt when Chile thrashed them by 3-0 but they got back to winning after loosing that match. So in their last 5 matches they have 4 wins and this stat should boost their confidence level a lot. Peru scored a total of 8 goals in these 5 matches and they kept clean sheet in all of their winning matches. The only 3 goals they did allow came against Chile where they lost. So their offense and defense both are playing better than expected and thus they are the favorites to win this match but it will be very close no matter what the result is.
Prediction –
Our prediction is 1-1, with the match ending in a draw but as I said, anything can happen.

OpinionReading mysteries in Havana It takes two to salsa, but is this the cha-cha-cha of change in US-Cuba relations? 13 Apr 2014 12:20 GMT | US & Canada, Latin America, Cuba, United States Cubans are moving more freely, travelling more frequently, and more of them are starting businesses and working independently, writes Bishara [AP]About the Author Marwan Bishara Marwan Bishara is the senior political analyst at Al Jazeera. @MarwanBishara Story highlightsWhen it comes to Cuba I am out of practice on a number of fronts. Debilitating nights. Double coronas. Disarming charm. But not daunting mysteries, fictional or real. Once one makes peace with slow internet connections, or intermittent, or no internet connections, the re-emergence of 'old-fashioned' ways, without the cyber distractions, is a blessing in disguise. I'm reading 'Havana Gold,' a tale of love, crime, poverty and corruption in a country that celebrates the first, eradicated the second, struggles with the third, and denies the forth. I couldn't tell you how it will all unfold in the novel and even less so in the country. I am still at the beginning, and so is the country, just starting a long, thrilling and perhaps painful journey toward change. Some of those efforts are real andWhen it comes to Cuba I am out of practice on a number of fronts. Debilitating nights. Double Coronas. Disarming charm. But not daunting mysteries, fictional or real. Once one makes peace with slow Internet connections, or intermittent (or even no) Internet connections, the re-emergence of "old-fashioned" ways, without the cyber distractions, is a blessing in disguise. I'm reading "Havana Gold", a tale of love, crime, poverty and corruption in a country that celebrates the first, eradicated the second, struggles with the third, and denies the fourth. I couldn't tell you how it will all unfold in the novel and even less so in the country. I am still at the beginning, and so is the country, just starting a long, thrilling and perhaps painful journey towards change. Some of those efforts are real and clear. Cuba was different than my last visit, a mere three months ago. And more of it is real, but invisible, at least to an outsider looking in. But far more of that change remains in the realm of the wishful and wishful thinking. US denies 'Cuban Twitter' made to stir unrest Mystery island Cuba is an enigmatic place to its friends and foes, especially to its curious nemesis to the north. But it's unravelling slowly and surely. With new players, new clues, and many twists and turns. There is an officially declared, even mandated, new openness that allows Cubans to speak out about their issues, to criticise their economic system publicly, and their governing system, albeit privately, and delineate a better future. Cubans of all walks of life, scholars, artists, activists, entrepreneurs, and representatives of the powers that be, are speaking out and we've been recording them for the next EMPIRE. With more than a million and a half new cell phones making it to Cuban hands - many fitted with cameras - there's better communication and louder chatter in the society. That's not to say Cubans are tweeting or Facebooking en masse. Internet and Wi-Fi are still a luxury for the few and the tourists. Cubans are, however, moving more freely, travelling more frequently, and more of them are starting businesses and working independently. How deep, how real, and how irreversible are the changes? Challenging questions, begging for answers. Will the answers open the way to new questions about Cuba's relations with the United States, and Washington's relations with Havana? Duplicity or irrationality Last week, an investigation by the Associated Press revealed a new twist in the mystery involving USAID, an agency of the US government. They've attempted to destabilise Cuba by setting up a fake Twitter network. Very typical of failed past US attempts to take down the Castros. Washington claims that its current policy is to cease and desist attempts at regime change in favour of watching Havana conduct its own reforms. It is not yet known if the covert actions by USAID were authorised from higher up, if they just went forward on automatic pilot, doing what they did because it's what they do, or if it was a rogue operation. Cuba passes law to attract foreign investors But the new information is certain to complicate another issue between the two nations: Alan Gross is in a Cuban jail, accused of being a US intelligence operative. Washington vehemently denied that he was an American agent. True, in the technical, limited sense that he was a "contractor". But "contractor" here is a euphemism for more of the same. Gross had gone on a hunger strike by the time the new revelations were made public. It doesn't seem to me that the two governments have escalated the conflict into a newly divisive public spat. Hmm, that's pretty suspicious if you ask me. All of that adds new twists to a puzzling relationship - or worse, old twists. As one commentator observed: US policy towards Cuba is where logic goes to die. The cha-cha-cha change? In his first major foreign policy speech, President Barack Obama pledged to seek relations with US detractors on the basis of mutual interest and mutual respect. He promised to extend a hand to those who are willing to unclench their fist. The Cubans were listening. Unlike many of their well-organised and bitter brethren in Miami, they were happy - at least they weren't unhappy - to see Obama win, even if they were sceptical and cautious about his promise of change. Cuba has had its own change of leadership, albeit between siblings, from Fidel Castro to Raul Castro. The new el presidente immediately showed himself to be less ideological and more pragmatic. He pledged that he would serve only two terms. Not really a hard promise to make, as he'll be 92 years old by then. More significantly, he spearheads a liberalisation and privatisation process, though limited and tight. It takes two to salsa. And so the two leaders began to allow for an ever so slightly closer dance between the two states. But are Washington and Havana dancing the cha-cha-cha of change, or merely dancing around the issues of real bilateral change - genuine normalisation. We will provide a few more clues to this ongoing mystery on the next episode of EMPIRE. Stay tuned. (As for the mystery novel, it ends with regrettable revelations.)

Title: | Positional differences in the wound transcriptome of skin and oral mucosa |
Author(s): | Chen, Lin; Arbieva, Zarema H.; Guo, Shujuan; Marucha, Phillip T.; Mustoe, Thomas A.; DiPietro, Luisa A. |
Subject(s): |
oral mucosal wounds
transcriptomes |
Abstract: | Background: When compared to skin, oral mucosal wounds heal rapidly and with reduced scar formation. Recent studies suggest that intrinsic differences in inflammation, growth factor production, levels of stem cells, and cellular proliferation capacity may underlie the exceptional healing that occurs in oral mucosa. The current study was designed to compare the transcriptomes of oral mucosal and skin wounds in order to identify critical differences in the healing response at these two sites using an unbiased approach. Results: Using microarray analysis, we explored the differences in gene expression in skin and oral mucosal wound healing in a murine model of paired equivalent sized wounds. Samples were examined from days 0 to 10 and spanned all stages of the wound healing process. Using unwounded matched tissue as a control, filtering identified 1,479 probe sets in skin wounds yet only 502 probe sets in mucosal wounds that were significantly differentially expressed over time. Clusters of genes that showed similar patterns of expression were also identified in each wound type. Analysis of functionally related gene expression demonstrated dramatically different reactions to injury between skin and mucosal wounds. To explore whether site-specific differences might be derived from intrinsic differences in cellular responses at each site, we compared the response of isolated epithelial cells from skin and oral mucosa to a defined in vitro stimulus. When cytokine levels were measured, epithelial cells from skin produced significantly higher amounts of proinflammatory cytokines than cells from oral mucosa. Conclusions: The results provide the first detailed molecular profile of the site-specific differences in the genetic response to injury in mucosa and skin, and suggest the divergent reactions to injury may derive from intrinsic differences in the cellular responses at each site. |

At Sam's Hudson Beach Bar & Restaurant, grill masters serve up a menu of fresh seafood and tasty burgers among tropical adornments and breathtaking sunsets. Starters compose a palatable prelude to beachside meals, with fried green tomatoes ($5.95) basking in the tangy splendor of their unripe youth and plates of lightly breaded gator ($8.95) gripping hunger pangs in their jaws and dragging them into a pool of dipping sauces. Entrees of beer-battered fish and chips tastefully combine libations and edibles ($10.95), and a marinated Island Grilled Chicken Sammy ($8.95) enraptures taste buds with a tropical garnish of pineapple, slaw, black beans, and rice. Meanwhile, beefy fare takes the form of the Paradise burger ($7.95), in which a half-pound of Angus stacks atop garden fixings to fill mouths and create ketchup mustaches.
At The Red Rhino Sports Bar and Grill, guests share good times with friends and neighbors over drinks and an eclectic menu of Southern and Caribbean pub fare. As sport games on TV or live comics on stage entertain crowds, diners feast on plates of fried gator, peanut-butter-slathered burgers, Cuban sandwiches,or grilled mahi mahi and jerk-seasoned tuna steaks.
The phosphorescent indoor landscape at Monster Mini Golf immerses putters in an eerie universe that inverts the sun-soaked cheer of conventional courses. Rimmed in glowing green barriers, 18 holes lure swingers of all sizes to challenge their coordination and resolve in the face of winged monsters, scowling animated trees, a creepy clown, and their opponents' shockingly dazzling smiles. Sheltered from searing rain and howling wind, the indoor course enables play around hazards such as a spell well and luminous, ghostly windmill at any time of the year. An in-house radio station and DJ mask the sound of pounding hearts with lively beats and course commentary, and golfers looking for additional glory can win prizes by participating in regular contests or at the on-site arcade.
A family-oriented sports bar, Benchwarmers promotes high-octane spectating with a solid menu and 10 high-definition TVs relaying NFL Sunday Ticket games. Down draft beer from the full bar, and replicate the Olympic logo with house-made onion rings. A bouquet of buffalo shrimp yearns to be dipped into succulent sauce, and the Benchwarmers burger explodes with the flavors of jack cheese and jalapeños, imbued with the bar's own specially concocted condiment. Sandwich selections, such as the turkey club and the corned-beef-and-swiss Reuben, make a delicious alternative to sandwiching meat between the arms of two embracing sports fans. The roster of events includes free live music, poker tournaments, and underground wrestling broadcasts, and its smoke-free interior promotes all-ages merrymaking with four pool tables and a variety of kid-friendly games.
Though the staff at The Brass Tap take beer very seriously, they've nevertheless turned drinking it into a game. Customers get a single point for each of the pub's 300 craft beers that they try. At certain milestones, they'll receive gift cards or a t-shirt with a new title, all the way from rookie to beer guru?and, if they conquer the challenge three times, they can win the coveted Repeat Offender 900 shirt.
Thankfully, the bar makes it easy to sort through its 300 beers. The menu is divided up into different beer types, which go deeper than the basic delineation of ale vs. lager vs. water that's been dyed amber. Guests can peruse listings of bottled barleywines and porters, or have a resident beer aficionado fill their mug with an imported brew on draft. Beer even permeates the food: the chipotle mustard on the house-baked pretzels is made with pale ale, just as the cheese dip is made with Samuel Adams. All of the burgers, sandwiches, and pretzel pizzas also have recommended drink pairings.
As for entertainment, each Brass Tap books a variety of local bands throughout the week. Trivia, bingo, and happy hours find regular spots on the schedule, and some locations have outdoor patios and cigars for purchase.

Neons were invented by accident over 300 years ago when a scientist shook a test tube. At the time though, their discovery was useless because they had no understanding of electricity. It took another 200 years for the concept to be rediscovered, and they called their invention 'The New Gas', or, as it was known in Greek, 'Neon'.
Regardless of how many times I see this image, its realism still amazes me. Neon's are a great way to feature a title, logo or any other text, and in this tutorial we learn how to transform a simple piece of text into an unbelievable glowing neon, complete with wall mounts and a brick wall to hold it up.

Actress Rachel McAdams is loving life as a single woman following her split from Ryan Gosling - insisting she has learned to value her "independence".
MCAdams and Gosling first got together after meeting on the set of their 2004 film The Notebook, but split for good in November (08) after a four month reunion.
The 30-year-old star was recently linked to actor Josh Lucas, but MCAdams reveals she is still single - and happy to be on her own.
She says, "I'm loving my independence. I think it is important for a woman to be alone for a year or so. You need to learn who you are."
