Video: Rosie: DeVito isn't a drunk, he just had too many drinks
posted at 4:30 pm on November 30, 2006 by Ian
Rosie and the gang didn't seem to mind DeVito's drunken anti-Bush tirade on yesterday's show. Somehow, I think if Bill O'Reilly was in Danny DeVito's shoes, they would have a different view on the issue.

Justin Bieber is unharmed after being involved in a car crash.
The 20-year-old singer was involved in an accident outside Mastro's Steak House in Beverly Hills on Tuesday afternoon (local time).
His black Cadillac Escalade was struck by a black BMW SUV on the right side, but Justin escaped without injury.
"Justin was only a passenger, not the driver, and he was not hurt," a source told MailOnline. "He is doing just fine."
Pictures of the accident show Bieber's vehicle was struck towards the rear.
According to TMZ, Bieber was trying to avoid photographers at the time of the accident as one was following him. His car was going fairly fast, which the BMW didn't realise when it pulled out. It struck the singer's car, with claims Bieber quickly got out and clambered into another vehicle and being driven away.
The Canadian heartthrob was pictured climbing into the other car in a grainy image which appears to show him covering his head with black material. He was wearing a black T-shirt and loose-fitting trousers with bright white trainers.
This is the latest in a long line of incidents involving Bieber. He has been accused of causing US$20,000 of damage to his neighbour's home by pelting it with eggs and was arrested for DUI while in Miami earlier this year.
His love-life has also seen him hit the headlines and he's though to have reunited with his old flame Selena Gomez lately.

A cross country coach in a small California town transforms a team of athletes into championship contenders.
From Disney comes MCFARLAND, the true against-all-odds story of the 1987 McFarland high school cross country team in an economically challenged community.
Starring Eddie Redmayne ("Les Misérables") and Felicity Jones ("The Amazing Spider-Man 2"), this is the extraordinary story of one of the world's greatest living minds, the renowned astrophysicist Stephen Hawking, who falls deeply in love with fellow Cambridge student Jane Wilde. Once a healthy, active young man, Hawking received an earth-shattering diagnosis at 21 years of age. With Jane fighting tirelessly by his side, Stephen embarks on his most ambitious scientific work, studying the very thing he now has precious little of - time.

GUELPH — The final report on the King George Public School boundary review shows board staff did consider the concerns raised by parents of students at Victory Public School, but it was not enough to make parents happy.
The report offers a modified alternative to the preferred scenario presented in previous reports. Rather than moving the Grade 4, 5 and 6 French immersion students from Victory to King George beginning Sept. 2013, the modified version moves Grade 5 and 6 students to King George and keeps Grade 4 French immersion students at Victory as long as there is room at the school. Staff will monitor enrolment each year and will decide well before September if Grade 4 students can stay at Victory or move to King George.
"There was a clear demonstration of commitment to the school and a desire to disrupt as few students as possible," said Jennifer Passey, manager of planning at the Upper Grand's business operations committee meeting Tuesday night. "But staff continues to support scenario 1."
"We appreciate that you have listened to us, but we are disappointed with the report," said Sarah Gower, who delegated on behalf of Victory parents. "To us there was very little movement. There's no renovation, no touching the English track program and no slowing down the process. Our suggestions have been written off. You have satisfied the tick boxes in your process.
"Our kids are moving to fill your new school. We deserve better."
Victory parents have presented at every board meeting since the public meeting in the fall where the different scenarios were announced. They have repeatedly asked that their small, dual-track, walkable community school remain intact and that portables be added temporarily until a proper renovation can be done to the school.
Passey reiterated that there's no money for a wide-scale renovation at Victory; that the boundary review only encompassed the French immersion program; and that most of the students will be able to walk the 2.4 km to King George school.
Parents balked at that.
"Transportation is still an issue," Gower said. "It's a long, hard walk to King George — up a steep hill, across two major intersections, across the river and along a train track."
Gower said parents are planning a community walk from Victory to King George on Friday and invited trustees and administrators to join them.
Trustees spent a great deal of time discussing the concerns raised by Victory parents before voting in favour of the staff recommendation.
"With all the growth in the city, you have to expect changes in boundaries," said Trustee Susan Moziar. "There's no perfect solution here. This is the best of what we can do."
Passey said French immersion enrolment has increased by 33 per cent over the last three years.
"The system has to adapt," she said.
Parents have one more kick at the can, at next Tuesday's board meeting, when the board will make a final decision on the boundary review.

3 Films- great, Quality- terriblePosted: 02/03/2012I can't believe they can sell these as Blu-Ray, the quality is pathetic. It's not as if these films weren't popular- they were, so they should have been sold atleast half decent. The scenes are selective which have been made into bluray. It is more HD than the original but still, no where near BluRay standards. It's a let down.
Jurassic Park Trilogy: Limited Ultimate Collector's Edition (With Digital Copies & T-Rex Model) (6 Discs) Blu-ray 6 New from £54.90 Free delivery
5 Can't waitPosted: 28/06/2011Like the 1st review said- it does a play a big part in our childhoods, although the price is a bit steep for films that did come out like 18 years ago, it is blu-ray at the end of the day. Cant really see how a film that old can be turned HD but oh well ;)
2 Stick to the seriesPosted: 30/01/2011Like the Christmas 2010 special, awful and not funny! This isnt benidorm- it was a poor attempt at turning into into a short 'action packed' movie- of which most things were extremely unlikely to happen
2 Stick to the seriesPosted: 30/01/2011They need to stop with the specials and keep with the series. I don't understand how a series episode differs so much to a special. Basically the rough-ness from a budget airliner form manchester has gone- the thing that made it the most funny. Some of the characters have gone (Jonny Vegas etc) and they are loaded now- no cheapy hotel anymore!
4 Best Windows OS yetPosted: 29/12/2010It is the best they have made. I bought this upgrade pack after failing to download it online properly. I did this upgrade as I no longer wanted Vista on the Toshiba Satellite laptop. It was only a year old when I decided I wanted Windows 7. As soon as I made that decision, and bought the online downloadable version- you know, the one as simple as downloading and pressing a few buttons, whoops. System failure. I originally found that there was a 3 pounds difference between this one and the professional version of windows, so ofcourse i bought the one up from this software. I ha to download it, then burn it to disk, then install it from there. Half way through changing over, it froze and made the PC unresponsive (i.e. no mouse movement- just like Windows 2000). So, I demanded a refund after being messed around by Digital River (in partnership with microsoft), in the end having to complain to America's Microsoft who were decent enough to follow it up. So, back to this version of windows 7. I went and bought it from Staples (upgrade version). All I now had to do was put in the disk and voila!LOL- no way! I had to wipe my PC which was completely messed up after the upgrade failure from the last time. I was on the phone, new years eve ALL DAY to India (I even know her name now- Deepa Batheji), and had to completely wipe my hard drive, (luckily i backed up before), put on the custom installation part of the disk (not the upgrade version), and completely change over the OS. Now I had to spend hours extra putting software and files over onto it. Not a very happy bunny after this. I like the software, but I would think it could've been easier. I was put of PC's by Toshiba's and Microsoft's mistakes and have now gone over to a Mac. I am trying to put this windows onto my mac through Parallels software, lets home Apple got this sorted!
5 An excellent movie- and I have high standards in movies!Posted: 21/11/2010Loved for years. Problem is though, My modern DVD player than doesnt have any widescreen/zoom button on its remote shows this movie quite small on screen with a large border around it. Its fine on the older dvd players, but isnt great on my samsung wall mountable blu-ray player. Maybe samsung expect all films to have the settings built onto the disks?
Ratatouille: Collector's Edition (2 Discs) DVD 5 New from £8.37 Free delivery Available used from £4.27
5 Another Disney HitPosted: 20/03/2010A great plot, and like always, a great disney movie, whatever the age
5 A must seePosted: 20/03/2010Occasionaly i wonder why sometimes the humans look animated when its mainly the blue people and outside the human compound that is, but overall its a good movie. I think they should have cut out a lot of the beginning and just get straight into the movie because the first half drags, but then again it does show the long term bonding of the blue people and humans. Ignore anyone who says the movie has a racist message, its just a film afterall. I think it would be even better on Blu-Ray, especially with the forest scene, that almost looks real
5 Funny... and i know my films =)Posted: 20/03/2010One of the best movies of all time, and it's one of those that you don't lose interest in, however many times you watch it. With an all-star cast going through "a once in a lifetime racing experience", travelling by rocket cars, rogue helicopters and bumping into an insane squirrel lady along the way, I think this is one of the best comedy movies in a long time. You have to buy it to find out and you are almost guaranteed that this movie will make you laugh =) Enjoy
Sherlock Holmes (2009) (With DVD) (With Lenticular Sleeve) Blu-ray 1 New from £7.25 Free delivery Available used from £4.86
2 What am i missing?!Posted: 20/03/2010Not are only the effects awful, but there is no plot. Adding Americans shows how unrealistic this would be, and it looks as if the film was made up as they went a long. I would have turned it off straight away if possible, or flicked it over if it was on TV. I would vote it on 1/2 a star, however isnt possible, though, i guess they tried to make a movie in the end. It was boring, and I would never watch again, it drags and i don't know what all the fuss is about. Even Black Sheep was a better movie, and that was awful.

Favorite Animated Superhero Shows With Comic Vine finally adding tv shows to the wiki, here's a list of my favorites! In order.
Most of these shows are on my list! Except for the X-Men and Avengers stuff. 90's X-Men I have never seen nor the Avengers. Wolverine and the X-Men bored me.
@crazyscarecrow: Interesting. I do think we can agree that Marvel hasn't been as successful as DC in the animation aspect. Either way, I'm a fan of the X-Men, so I watched those shows. X-Men TAS is a little outdated for me but has had some great moments. It captured me for the first 2 or 3 seasons, but I later stopped. Avengers EMH is not bad but I felt that it was geared more towards kids, which isn't exactly a bad thing, but I felt that it was cheesy at parts. Also, I'm not a fan of the Avengers team in comics or in the show, except for Cap and Black Panther. I have yet to catch up on it, so hopefully it gets better. Wolverine & the X-Men, I thought was very good. Again, I love the X-Men so maybe I"m a bit biased. However, it was enjoyable and had a great version of the "Days of Future Past" story. I'm just disappointed in the very short-lived greatness. Same with GL: TAS, YJ, which were way too short for me!
WOW... If I would've have ever made a list like this it would be identical to yours :O! You like all the shows I like, are you my long lost brother? :P
@rustyroy: @jldoom: @madeinbangladesh: @ninjablade09: @martianmanhunterisbetterthancy: Thanks guys! @selinawayne said:WOW... If I would've have ever made a list like this it would be identical to yours :O! You like all the shows I like, are you my long lost brother? :PI think so! :D

GUELPH — Transforming the world's food systems will be necessary if a much larger world population is to have enough to eat in the near future.
A group of University of Guelph researchers are focused on solving food challenges and averting a future food crisis. They are using a new series of online videos, comment threads and articles to encourage discussion about what the future holds for a world populated by nine or more billion people.
"That nine billion is the peak of the trajectory of exponential population growth," said Cayla Albrecht, a graduate student in U of G's geography department.
She studies local food systems and spent last summer looking at the practice of meat producers selling directly to consumers. Understanding how local systems get food to consumers in alternative ways, she said, could have global applications.
She, along with fellow geography graduate students Lauren Sneyd and Tom Armitage, are part of the research team of Evan Fraser, Canada research chair in Global Human Security and professor of geography. They are contributors to feedingninebillion.com, a website dedicated to understanding future food challenges.
Armitage said there is growing anxiety over what the future holds, given that climate change is already making it more difficult to grow food in various places around the world. While there is currently enough food to feed everyone on the planet, he said that food is unevenly distributed, to the point where nearly one billion people go hungry.
"With more people consuming resources, it creates a further problem from climate change," Armitage said, "because climate change affects the amount of food that can be produced."
Sneyd said current food distribution deficiencies — particularly in Africa, the region she studies — could be exacerbated by significant spikes in population. Already fragile food security could become dire unless remedies are explored now. That, she and the others said, is what feedingninebillion.com is all about.
Sneyd said it is crucial to understand how the livelihood of farmers can be sustained. The ability of farmers to sustain themselves and not end up impoverished is a timely issue around the world.
"Whether it's here or in Africa or India, farmer livelihood is a big part of the equation of providing food for the population while not destroying livelihoods in the process," Albrecht said.
Recently a series of informative videos, each illustrated by graphic artist Scott Mooney and narrated by Evan Fraser, have been uploaded to the website. They propose a wide range of potential approaches to alleviate the pressures on food systems related to the rising population. No one approach is going to solve the problem, said Armitage.
The introductory video describes the issue as one of largest the world will face over the next 50 years. High food prices and shortages in recent years have sparked riots and toppled governments, and the situation could get much worse if food, water and electricity shortages intensify.
Population increases and richer diets mean that 50 per cent more food will have to be produced by 2050. Rising demand for food, coupled with higher energy costs and the growing stresses of climate change, results in food becoming much more costly to produce. The situation is potentially catastrophic.
Sneyd said food prices are expected to continue to rise. The food budgets of families are already under pressure.
One of the project videos warns that as food prices rise, further squeezing those food budgets, social unrest is likely to increase as poverty and hunger increase.
One video discusses both the dangers and benefits of genetically modified crops, and advocates for low-tech solutions wherever possible, before high-tech strategies are deployed. Another video looks at the inequity in the food distribution system that leaves 870 million people hungry and 1.5 billion overweight or obese and explores the many complexities and inefficiencies of the system. And another explores local food systems and advocates for a blend of both local and global systems to enhance food security.
"Really what the website is hoping to do is open up a discussion about these issues," Armitage said, pointing out that each video has generated a lot of dialogue so far.
All three of the researchers are confident the University of Guelph is working hard to find solutions to future food challenges, and that the innovations and insights its food-focused scientists arrive at will play a part in solving current and future problems.

While the rest of the world bops along to the tune of Galaxy S, Samsung's native South Korea has seen several other letters of the alphabet get a matching phone. The latest is the Samsung Galaxy K, a phone sharing similar specs to others in the Galaxy line with one key difference: it is the first to ship with Android 2.2 on board. This of course means the handset runs Flash 10.1 on its 3.7-inch AMOLED Plus screen and 1GHz CPU. The phone has 8GB of internal storage and all the connectivity you'd expect from Bluetooth to WiFi.
The Galaxy K comes in both black and white color schemes and retails for 800,000 won on South Korea's KT.

OXFORD, Miss. (AP) — The man charged with mailing ricin-laced letters to the president and a senator was expected back in court Monday, and the hearing could reveal what evidence authorities have collected from searches of his home and vehicle.
Through his lawyer, Paul Kevin Curtis has denied any involvement in the letters sent to President Barack Obama and Mississippi Republican Sen. Roger Wicker, as well as a third letter sent to a Lee County, Miss., judge.
A detention and preliminary hearing began Friday in U.S. District Court in Oxford, Miss., but was continued when it ran into the evening.
In the hearing, Curtis' lawyer, Christi McCoy, tried to show that authorities had collected little physical evidence.
FBI agent Brandon Grant testified late Friday that searches of Curtis' home and car had not been completed. He also said other tests, such as DNA analysis, were pending.
Prosecutors had wanted to delay the hearing, but McCoy objected, saying her client shouldn't have to stay in jail over the weekend if there wasn't enough evidence to hold him.
U.S. Magistrate Judge S. Allan Alexander continued the hearing when it ran into the evening and attorneys said it could go on for hours.
After the hearing, Curtis' attorney said the federal government had produced little physical evidence to link her client to the crime.
She is likely to ask during Monday's hearing exactly what the searches uncovered over the weekend.
"He is adamant that he did not do this," McCoy said Friday. She said her client has never been in possession of ricin and doesn't know how to make it.
"I have not seen anything to the contrary, so I have to accept what he is saying as the truth," McCoy said.
Grant testified Friday that authorities tried to track down the sender of the letters by using a list of Wicker's constituents with the initials KC, the same initials in the letters. Grant said the list was whittled from thousands to about 100 when investigators isolated the ones who lived in an area that would have a Memphis, Tenn., postmark, as do some places in north Mississippi. He said Wicker's staff recognized Curtis' name as someone who had written the senator before.

GearGrip Computer Harnesses - It's time to LAN in style - 17" LCD Harness
Most computer users love to attend LAN parties on a regular basis but we can safely say the majority dislike lugging their computer parts around. Case Ace has came to the rescue with their line of products under the GearGrip brand name which make the task of carrying around your computer parts very easy and stylish. If you're a fashionable geek, this is for you.
17" LCD Harness
What good is being able to carry your computer easily when you can't carry your monitor around with the same ease? Well, we don't expect you to have to worry about that since we organized to have a look at the GearGrip 17" LCD harness as well. The 17" LCD is one of the more common monitor sizes among gamers for two reasons - they are one of the better valued LCDs and these days thanks to companies like Samsung, they have an extremely low MS response time.
The LCD Shield harness comes in a few different sizes and a few different colors (Blue/Black, Red/Black and the one we have here today Silver/Black) depending on what size LCD you have. They are available in small, medium and large. Small is designed for 15"-16" LCDs, Medium for 17" - 19" and Large for 19" - 21" LCDs. As we mentioned, the particular one we are looking at here is the medium one to help accommodate our 17" LCD.
The front of the panel has a thin film between the padded layers of fabric to help protect the front of the screen from being damaged - as we all know, when you're driving around from LAN to LAN, they can get knocked easily enough.
The back of the unit has a place for the power supply and a little Velcro strap so you can place your cables in there. Our particular LCD doesn't have a separate power supply so you could use the little bag for something else like your mouse or another power cable.
If you thought the installation on the Micro LT harness was easy, then you will be happy to find that the LCD harness is easier again. You simply lay the LCD on top of the protected layer and move the straps around the back and clip them together, which is done without too much hassle at all.
We then used the Velcro strap for our VGA and power cable and there you have it, we are now carrying our LCD around without much effort at all. We gave the LCD a bit of a swing around to make sure it wasn't going anywhere and thankfully it didn't fly out from under us into the our testing bench.

Have job cuts hit your family?
Share your stories, photos and videos.Relevant offers
Employees who lost their jobs at Taranaki engineering business ITL this week are the latest casualties of a slowdown across the industry.
The company's operations director, Kim Gilkison, said "about 20" people lost their jobs on Monday following a restructure.
She said the business had never been through cuts before and the losses were "an awful thing for any company to go through".
"We regret losing so many valuable people. We will miss them," she said.
> Share this story on Facebook
Gilkison said oil and gas contracts made up a reasonable amount of the work ITL did and while they still held them the volume of work had slowed.
"There's been quite a big change in industry spend," she told the Taranaki Daily News yesterday.
The company had downsized in order to meet market conditions but Gilkison said she expected the workload to come back around in the coming years.
ITL, which was founded in 1988 and sold to Australian company LogiCamms for about $16 million last year, will continue to employ 125 people.
Earlier this year Minister for Economic Development Steven Joyce claimed Taranaki was one of, if not the leading region in the country but that is now being questioned.
Engineering, Printing and Manufacturing Union organiser Ross Henderson said the ITL job cuts were the latest in a long list across the region.
Just this year the Taranaki Daily News has reported 15 job cuts at Tenix, 120 at Fitzroy Yachts and 28 at Fitzroy Engineering.
When you looked back further there had been more.
"There's been more than 300 job losses in the engineering and fabrication sector in this province. It's likely there's more to come," Henderson said.
The oil and gas industry was either "boom or bust," he said.
"When they come to a halt, they come to a shuddering halt. It's not looking promising."
Henderson said the EPMU was not involved with ITL but engineering companies they were linked to were looking at opportunities outside the region and overseas to keep employees on the job.
Workforce statistics released last month showed the number of people employed in the region had dropped by roughly 1100 in the year to June 2014.
MP Jonathan Young said that had to do with the "cyclical" nature of the engineering industry.
Yesterday, Young said work slowed when companies in the energy industry were not demanding high-level maintenance or re-builds.
Labour MP Andrew Little said the job losses were worrying.
"They reflect not only the fact that the oil and gas sector in the region is stabilising but that the regional economy is continuing to shrink," he said.
"Output for Taranaki has fallen successively for the last three years."

Rice synthetic biologists shine light on genetic circuit analysis
Bioengineers invent 'light tube array,' 'bioscilloscope' to test, debug genetic circuits
HOUSTON — (March 9, 2014) — In a significant advance for the growing field of synthetic biology, Rice University bioengineers have created a toolkit of genes and hardware that uses colored lights and engineered bacteria to bring both mathematical predictability and cut-and-paste simplicity to the world of genetic circuit design.
"Life is controlled by DNA-based circuits, and these are similar to the circuits found in electronic devices like smartphones and computers," said Rice bioengineer Jeffrey Tabor, the lead researcher on the project. "A major difference is that electrical engineers measure the signals flowing into and out of electronic circuits as voltage, whereas bioengineers measure genetic circuit signals as genes turning on and off."
In a new paper appearing online today in the journal Nature Methods, Tabor and colleagues, including graduate student and lead author Evan Olson, describe a new, ultra high-precision method for creating and measuring gene expression signals in bacteria by combining light-sensing proteins from photosynthetic algae with a simple array of red and green LED lights and standard fluorescent reporter genes. By varying the timing and intensity of the lights, the researchers were able to control exactly when and how much different genes were expressed.
"Light provides us a powerful new method for reliably measuring genetic circuit activity," said Tabor, an assistant professor of bioengineering who also teaches in Rice's Ph.D. program in systems, synthetic and physical biology. "Our work was inspired by the methods that are used to study electronic circuits. Electrical engineers have tools like oscilloscopes and function generators that allow them to measure how voltage signals flow through electrical circuits. Those measurements are essential for making multiple circuits work together properly, so that more complex devices can be built. We have used our light-based tools as a biological function generator and oscilloscope in order to similarly analyze genetic circuits."
In previous research, Rice synthetic biologist Jeff Tabor and colleagues created colonies of light-sensitive bacteria that exhibited complex patterns when exposed to images, like this portrait of Albert Einstein. In a new study, Tabor and colleagues realized that light could be used to create time-varying gene-expression signals that rise and fall, similar to those used in electronic engineering.

Electronic circuits — like those in computers, smartphones and other devices — are made up of components like transistors, capacitors and diodes that are connected with wires. As information — in the form of voltage — flows through the circuit, the components act upon it. By putting the correct components in the correct order, engineers can build circuits that perform computations and carry out complex information processing.
Genetic circuits also process information. Their components are segments of DNA that control whether or not a gene is expressed. Gene expression is the process in which DNA is read and converted to produce a product — such as a protein — that serves a particular purpose in the cell. If a gene is not "expressed," it is turned off, and its product is not produced. The bacteria used in Tabor's study have about 4,000 genes, while humans have about 20,000. The processes of life are coordinated by different combinations and timings of genes turning on and off.
Each component of a genetic circuit acts on the input it receives — which may be one or more gene-expression products from other components — and produces its own gene-expression product as an output. By linking the right genetic components together, synthetic biologists like Tabor and his students construct genetic circuits that program cells to carry out complex functions, such as counting, having memory, growing into tissues, or diagnosing the signatures of disease in the body.
For example, in previous research, Tabor and colleagues designed genetic circuits that allowed bacteria to change their color based on incoming light. The technique allowed the team to create bacterial colonies in Petri dishes that could behave like photo paper and reproduce black and white images.
In the new study, Tabor and Olson realized that light could be used to create time-varying gene-expression signals that rise and fall, similar to those used in electronic engineering.

"In electronics, two of the key tools are function generators and oscilloscopes," said Olson, a graduate student in applied physics. "The function generator sends a known signal into the circuit being characterized. The oscilloscope is a device with a screen that the engineer uses to see the circuit output. By twisting the knobs on the function generator and viewing the corresponding output on the oscilloscope, the engineer can infer what various parts of the circuit are doing.
"The system of fluorescent reporter genes is our version of the oscilloscope," he said. "It lets us view both the circuit's input and output, and because it uses light to report on what's happening, it provides a very clean signal."
With their "bioscilloscope" in hand, the team needed a corresponding function generator. Olson, the lead author of the Nature Methods paper, put his electronics skills to work in late 2011 and invented the "light tube array," a programmable, eight-by-eight set of LED lights that will fit under a standard 64-well tray of test tubes. With the addition of some light-blocking foam around each test tube, the team had a way to send individually programmed light signals into each test tube in the array. By varying the signals and measuring the corresponding outputs with their bioscilliscope, the team was able to determine exactly how its test circuit performed.
"The precision of light allows us to create exceptionally clean gene expression signals, which we can use to extract far more information about gene circuits than was possible before," Tabor said.
"We found there was a seven-minute delay between the gene expression going into and coming out of the genetic circuit," Olson said. "We also found we could program the circuit to follow specific patterns. For example, to rise by a specific amount over a set amount of time, stop and stay at another level for a predetermined length of time and then drop down to a third level for another interval of time."
Olson said the light tube array and bioscilliscope will be useful tools for biologists to probe how nature's cells work, as well as for synthetic biologists who want to build and analyze their own circuits and networks.
"It's really about having a clean input signal, a clean output signal and the tools required to measure them," Olson said.
Tabor added, "You just never see data this clean in biology. It's remarkable."
The research was supported by the National Science Foundation, the Office of Naval Research and NASA. Study co-authors include bioengineering graduate students Lucas Hartsough and Brian Landry and former undergraduate Raghav Shroff.

Hi. I'm a copywriter. I've written for all forms of media. I need a job. Seriously. I reeeally need a job. The market for writers is not too great out there. I just spent a good three months in an interview process with some company, pretty optimistic that I got the job, and then I got turned down because my portfolio didn't include enough business-to-business stuff. Yeah, no exaggeration.
So if you're looking for a writer, and I mean just any kind of writer, let me know and I'll send you my resume and a link to my portfolio.
there doesn't seem to be anything here

He's been snipping back at fans quite often as of late. He hasn't been posting much in terms of constructive stuff, and hasn't posted often to his blog even though he said he would. Anyway, does it really matter what homie is saying?
Where's McCosky? I see in today's Detroit News (1/24/08), McCosky was nowhere to be found. Joan Gerstner wrote a couple of very favorable articles about how well the Pistons, their bench and AJ played in the 76ers game.
McCoskey keeps harping on 29-12. That is way too simplistic a reference point! You have to look at how they play and who they've played to achieve that record. The issue is consistent; bench development. My fear is that when the playoffs roll around we won't see any of these young guys. We'll get a steady dose of Lindsey and Flip 2 and either Webber (although I don't think we'll sign him) or some other trade deadline vet. We will also see Hayes mins go way way down just like Mo Evans and the Mo Evans clone (who's name escapes me) from the year before. That seems to bet the M.O. every year.
I am still believin'. And I am not saying the sky is falling. All I am pointing out is that any playing time for the young guys (except Max) will be for naught when the playoffs come because we will again hear about "shortening the bench". I still think we have a great team with a good chance to reach the finals. Even as we are constructed now I don't believe any in the East, even Boston, can beat us in 7.
Shortening the bench in PO-s is't a sort of mantra, reasoning behind of this is a fact that in PO-s trying times are over, only capable players should play. And fact is that most rookies are not capable of handling PO intensity. Therefore pistons will be extremly lucky if 2 rookies(AA,RS) and and practically rookie( AJ) will be ready to support ... They have no idea, how PO-s look like... Ice under pistons feet is extremly thin.
Well now, fast forward a couple of weeks. Quite interesting indeed. We have had a conversation here about that conversation (supposed) between Saunders and Dumars. The change has been made. Dumars got what he was hinting at. McCoskey as usual proves to be lamely wrong. With this said, is the change really made though? If Saunders would have played Amir in the 2nd half of the last game. If he had any imagination at all and could have figured out to put him into the game when we were up 25 points with 4 minutes left in the 3rd quarter, then I would say the change was made. But instead, we get a lame excuse from Flip as to why Amir could not get 2nd half minutes. (Too lame to even mention.) There are still going to be doubters. I can't blame them. Indiana is coming up next on the schedule. A weak team for sure. If Saunders can't cement the change in this game by playing Amir another good 15 solid minutes, then when will it ever happen? Stay tuned. I bet a whole lot of fans, deciding on whether to attend the Palace more this year, are keeping track.
1. I do not think, that Dumars decides how many minutes somebody gets. He has confessed that interfering a coach was a mistake and he isn't going to repeat it. 2. Do not expect that every adjustment will be sucessful. There will be some failed experiments in the future (as shortening the bench was) but that's what season is for. 3.I extremly highly doubt that Palace attendance depends on ONE benchplayer.For you may be this the most important thing but for the others...??
In the post game after Johnsons 1st outing Flip said that he was playing him because Maxiel needed a break. So he is still the 4th big and I would not expect him to play over 10 MPG very often based on that. But he will play. As long as he stays ahead of the 2 new guys he will play. He has moved from #6 to #4 on the depth chart and that is quit a promotion. I consider McCosky as the Piston mouthpiece for all practicle purposes. If he is talking up Amir then things are looking good for him. Not too long ago McCosky was writing about how Amir was not ready and foul prone and all that. Also who knows if Amir even may be able to beat out Maxiel on the depth chart and move into #3. I think the opportunity exists anyway.
Its not just Amir. Afflalo makes a difference too. This is not an opinion of mine, but what people tell me. People were quite excited about the Pistons back in November, with Afflalo and Amir playing, and the promise of Stuckey playing also. The excitement died. And if you attended games, the empty seats speak volumes. Despite the non-sense about the sell out streak continuing, there were few fans showing up at the Palace by late December. Which is why they started practically giving away seats.
It has a lot to do with the fact that we have the same core for the 4th year in a row. The fans know that the Pistons will be in the playoffs and also know that their success in the regular season doesn't have much to do with the odds of success in the playoffs. So, in that respect, the fans are getting complacent like the players are. Also, we have the slowest tempo in the NBA. Grind-in-out control games are successful for us, but they are not as crowd pleasing as a lot of teams for the lay-fans.
That's oversimplifying a bit; we've been near the bottom in pace since Rick Carlisle came along, but created lots of excitement with funneling defense. Playing fundamentally sound rotating D with efficient but predictable jumpshooting O is a combination that allows lazy fans to submit to their disinterest.
Its very fun watching the Pistons when they are on their game and the crowd does get excited. Precise half court execution, forced turnovers, etc... Overall I think they are still trying to recover from losing Ben Wallace. Fans used to really identify with him. Of course that was back when he was leading the league in blocks and rebounds. They are still looking for that big draw to replace him. Currently its not as bad as some think. Anyone who has been to a game in the 90's knows what I am talking about. I don't know why so many think that offense = excitement. Back in the 70's thats all they used to do. Run it up score, go the other way score. Hardly anyone watched the sport back then.

If you have an oven thermometer, I would check to make sure your oven temp is correct. If it isn't, adjust it accordingly. Assuming you have used the right size pan (not one that is too deep, which woul require a longer cooking time), I would raise the temperature a bit and keep an eye on it. There's not much you can do at this point. What kind of cake is this? What size pan? And what temp are you baking at?
