Partnership to Prepare Biofuels Professionals
News from
University of Tennessee - Knoxville
By U of T - Knoxville Staff
March 14, 2007
New types of jobs are already appearing related to the burgeoning biofuels and biorefining industries, and the University of Tennessee is among the institutions leading the way to educate a professional workforce suited for the new industries.
Under a $500,000 USDA Higher Education Grant, UT is working with North Carolina State University and North Carolina A&T to develop a new academic curriculum for master's and Ph.D. students wishing to study the technical side of biomass utilization. Called BioSUCCEED, which stands for Bio product S ustainability, a University Cooperative Center of Excellence in Ed ucation, the schools will grant advanced degrees in biomass sciences through an innovative program that allows students to study at any of the three cooperating institutions simultaneously through distance education. The effort also includes the development of two undergraduate courses to supplement existing degree programs.
Although the curriculum is still under development, anticipated courses include the fundamentals of biomaterials, studies of thermal conversion and biological conversion processes, and the development of solid state composites. Additional studies of environmental and energy policies related to biomass use are also anticipated.
The semester-long courses, including lectures and supplementary materials, will be available to instructors on the Web. The first course should be offered during the 2007 fall semester. Dr. Tim Rials, director of the UT Forest Products Center and the federal Sun Grant Initiative's Southeastern Regional Center, will manage UT's involvement in the project. "We're excited to offer cutting-edge technology and training to highly motivated students,"he said. "The synergy of this project should be a catalyst for intensive research in needed areas such as the composition and characterization of biomass and in studies of chemical and biological processes used to convert biomass to useful products. These new technologies are needed to propel the new biobased economy."
Rials says there will also be opportunities for students to participate in research involving the economics and the environmental impacts of harvesting and collecting both biomass and the industrial residues produced by biobased industries. Biomass is a broad category of biologically produced materials including plant materials and human and industrial waste. Biomass feedstocks are expected to be sustainable sources of energy for use in the production of cellulosic ethanol.
Project coordinators intend to make the new courses widely available. "Because the goal is supporting a new biobased economy with a qualified technical workforce, the classes will ultimately be offered to the national biomass community for customization by any institution,"said Dr. Thomas Klindt, interim dean of the UT Agricultural Experiment Station. Klindt is among the campus administrators involved in proposing that UT operate the Southeastern Regional Sun Grant Center and he is a strong supporter of the Tennessee Biofuels Initiative, a business model that proposes the development of a sustainable bioeconomy based on the production of cellulosic ethanol.
A key component of the initiative is a pilot biorefinery available to researchers with the Experiment Station and other institutions for process and product research and development. The Biofuels Initiative also outlines the development of other biorefineries across the state.
"If a biofuels industry is to develop and thrive, it's got to have a workforce. The BioSUCCEED project is the first step in providing that workforce,"said Rials.

10 Movies to Watch in 2013
Thursday, December 27, 2012 |
2 years ago
Most of the blathering this year about the death of film and film culture has already evaporated from the mind, like so much inert gas. But one gnomic pronouncement endures: Leos Carax describing cinema as "a beautiful island with a cemetery" following the world premiere of Holy Motors at Cannes. What are the contents of that necropolis? As we look ahead to 2013, several unnecessary sequels — Fast and Furious 6, The Hangover Part III, Grown Ups 2, The Smurfs 2 — seem eligible for the funeral pyre. Buried under mountains of cash when they were first released, the blockbusters Jurassic Park, The Little Mermaid and the Star Wars installments Attack of the Clones and Revenge of the Sith will be disinterred and reissued in 3-D.
Yet for all of next year's likely stinking corpses, 2013 also boasts plenty of reinvigorating fare — movies that are the flora and fauna of Carax's "beautiful island." Below are ten titles — including some we haven't seen (and which might be eligible for the charnel house when we do) — whose promise suggests to us that reports of film's death are greatly exaggerated. (All dates are subject to change.)

Eric Church is promising a rocking performance tonight at the CMA Awards. His new single "The Outsiders" in, Eric's words, is like "If you go past that, it's a cliff. Sometimes I feel like we're leaning over it." Church notes this song has people literally fighting over where it belongs genre wise, and he just doesn't care, that's why he's playing it at the CMA's. Church is officially back after taking a hiatus to write for his new record, with the lead single's namesake which will debuted February 11th.
And if you're not a Taylor Swift fan, you'll want to be prepared to mute the CMA Awards at some point tonight. Swift is nominated for six awards and is guaranteed to walk away with one. The Pinnacle Award. The award is presented to artists who have who've made a significant impact on the industry, both nationally and internationally, based on their concerts and record sales at levels unique in country music. CMA President of the Board Ed Hardy says, "I've known Taylor since she was 16. She came to my office with her Mom to play her music and I was amazed. Taylor's outstanding career epitomizes the definition of the Pinnacle Award." Only one other artist in CMA history has received this award, Garth Brooks in 2005.

That's what the courts want you to think. In practice, they work backwards and think of ways to get to the conclusion they want.
The history of the Supreme Court is one of "split the difference" rulings. From Marbury v. Madison's "Marbury is entitled to his commission but not a writ of mandamus" to Roe v. Wade's trimester framework.
Granted, the Rehnquist court changed the dynamics. The judicial philosophy of the 4 conservatives precludes compromise. They believe in narrow holdings constrained by originalism that leave no room for compromise.
In this case, it's possible to pick some arbitrary difference between advertising, email, meeting in a classroom, and funding and create a new rule allowing some and not allowing others. I would even have bet on it in a past era. But this court is unlikely to take that route.

Shakira pregnant? Yes she is, no she isn't
Shakira's father, Willilam Chadid, has got himself into hot water after publically stating that he would love to be a grandfather. The singer's proud Lebanese father was just speaking his mind but rumors are now circulating that he was hinting at Shakira already being pregnant!
Not true - says Chadid, he was just saying he'd love her to have a child. But according to a Colombian newspaper, the star is already six weeks pregnant with boyfriend, Gerard Pique's child and is just waiting for the right moment to go public.
But wait! Now Chadid has put out a press statement denying Shakira's pregnancy. The proud father said it would make everyone in the family very happy if his daughter did settle down but that she certainly isn't doing that right now.
What do you think - is she is or isn't she? Tell us your thoughts below.

The Allotment Movement in North-East Greater London 1900-2010: a social and cultural history of urban allotments
My research examines the allotment movement over the course of the twentieth century.
Allotments are small parcels of rented land, in rural and urban locations, used for growing fruits and vegetables for personal consumption. The demand for allotments and their availability have changed over time. In my thesis, I examine the causes of these changes by focusing on a specific case: the urban allotment movement in Ilford/Redbridge, Greater London, from its inception in 1900 until 2010.
This case study correlates the acquisition and disposal of sites with the socio-economic and political climate of the day. It shows how the economic depression of the 1930s brought about a massive expansion of the movement, thus laying the groundwork for a successful WWII Dig for Victory campaign. Despite occasional peaks over the next fifty years, the number of sites steadily declined. In the latter years of the twentieth century, Redbridge, along with other councils, attempted to sell-off many of its remaining sites for development. My research illustrates how highly-publicised and well-orchestrated protests prevented the Council from achieving its objective.
Set against the zeitgeist of the day, the people, their communities and culture, the politics and policies of the local council, the government and the allotment societies are investigated. By examining the interaction between these actors and these agencies, the consequences of their actions on the allotment movement are revealed.
The similarity of Ilford to neighbouring boroughs and to urban settlements in England more generally is reviewed. The gender, occupations, social class, age and race of the plot holder in Ilford/Redbridge is profiled and compared to the stereotype of the white working-class male allotmenteer and charted to see how it has changed over the course of the twentieth century.

How to Replace a Plug on an Extension Cord
Posted By Fred On January 27, 2009 @ 7:00 am In Electrical,Project Guides | 7 Comments
Check out the latest addition to our shop: a fantastic 20 foot, 4-plug extension cord.
Our good buddy Chuck rescued four of these heavy-duty extension cords just before they were chucked into a local dumpster. Apparently, during a remodel these cords were no longer useful because they weren't long enough for the new configuration.
The only issue with our new extension cord is the plug on the end, which is a 20-amp 3 prong locking-style plug. If you squint on this picture, you'll notice that the brown receptacles on the other end each bear a sideways "T" for their left plug, indicating they can handle a 20-amp load.
We don't have a locking-style 20-amp receptacle anywhere, so we've decided to replace the 20-amp plug with a traditional 3-prong 15-amp plug. The only potential danger here is that we're not going to change out the receptacles with 15-amp receptacles to save on cost. If you were to plug in a 20-amp tool, you would blow the breaker on any 15 amp circuit you were connected to. This isn't really a danger for us since (a) we don't own any 20-amp tools, (b) we'll tell people when we loan them the cord, and (c) it doesn't pose a significantly greater risk than the existing risk of plugging in two 10-amp tools and using them simultaneously.
This type of plug replacement is quick and easy and can be done with a simple screwdriver and a replacement plug that can be purchased from any of the big box improvement stores. Here's the steps we followed:
Step 1: Remove the screws holding on the original plug end, and pull away the cover.
Step 2: Loosen the screws holding the wires and pull off the plug so that only the insulation and bare wires remain.
Step 3: Put the new plug housing on the existing wire and tighten the wires into the new terminals. Note the convention: Black wire -> Gold terminal; White wire -> Silver Terminal; Green Wire -> Green Terminal. (great tip 1shotrising).
Step 4: Pull the plug housing toward the front of the plug and tighten everything in place. You're done!
Make sure you use a plug appropriate for the wire. In this case, we're moving to a lower-amp plug, which is safe. You wouldn't want to take an extension cord rated for 15-amps and put a 20-amp locking plug on it. The cord might overheat during us, posing a fire hazard.
What do you think? What's the latest thing you've rescued from the dumpster?

Hundreds of Special Olympians gathered for the annual spring games Wednesday at UNCW.
They took part in track and field events like dashes, jumping events, and wheelchair races.
More than 100 volunteers from businesses and organizations helped out.
Wednesday's games served as a qualifier. Twenty-five of the top athletes will be selected to join a travel team to go to Raleigh.
It was a fun time for athletes and spectators alike.
"It's a great feeling just to see all the children out here participating in it and it gives you great joy that they put something like this on so the community can get involved, it's just great, it's excellent," said Billy Wines, parent of a Special Olympian.
The Special Olympics continue Thursday with the adult athletes competing.

After watching most of tonight's game, I missed a lot of the 4th. I'm a little less than impressed that this team basically held everything hostage by playing with a half-assed effort to get Rip back into the starting lineup. Now I know what is wrong with Joe. He has Stockholm Syndrome. Happy to have the win. Shame we didn't bring that sort of effort against Cleveland last week.
So what happens if AI see exactly what you see? I can't see this ending well if he does. I don't know how it can. Well it could end well for the Pistons but without AI.
I'm really not sure Ill. The Pistons as constituted are still nowhere near Boston's league. Just because we beat up on our favorite red headed stepchild tonight, doesn't mean a lot. I always expect us to beat Orlando. I think they are overrated. They took 19 3s for crissakes. 19 threes at home, in a tight game. It's a formula for failure. But I digress... Stuckey is not Billups, and we're not better without AI, any more than we were better without Rip during the win streak. We need as much talent on the floor as possible to make some noise. Joe has flashed his hand by trading CB, then making no moves at the deadline besides granting Alex Acker a chance to have a career. I think we wait this out, and AI might get a raw deal. I mean, as raw a deal as not having to play and still getting paid millions is. In the scheme of things, it's really hard to cry over that. Right now, the team has played well in the last two, and won the last one. It looks like AI doesn't have much to stand on if he wants to protest anything. The guys on the team simply do not have his back. I always worried about this, when Ben left, he stayed in touch with these guys, just as Billups does. I don't think Joe's guys are as loyal to him as they are to each other, which gives the impression that the inmates are running the asylum, and probably have for several seasons. I wouldn't dream of making this critique, but Tay and Sheed have been visibly dogging it for a couple weeks now.
Yeah, it seems he is in a corner (come off the bench or make waves and look bad), but for real how can you play hard for teammates who you feel have committed mutiny? Hamilton justifies Pistons' move | detnews.com | The Detroit News more on that lpgrl quote it sounds even worse here.
At first, I thought that maybe Iverson out of the SL is actually good for the Pistons. On second thought, doubts about the character of this team start to creep in. If it's true that we start pulling off a string good wins against good teams like ORL because our guys will actually be trying now, and that they wanna send a message to AI, then I will think that they are pieces of crap.
The doubts have always been there for me. We have been talented enough to go to the Finals, it's the commitment and work ethic of these guys that is the question. You gotta remember, these are people just like us. They get scared, act petty, get frustrated, angry just like us. I'd hazard a guess some of them are even more emotional than us, because they live in a world much removed from the day to day reality of gassing up the car, taking the kids to school, mowing the lawn etc.
I just think that having 3 "go to" type scorers in the backcourt is too many. Too much Rip and AI takes away from Rodney's game, and it seems as Rodney goes, so go the Pistons. So, in that sense, we are better without AI. Talent is all well and good, but if the talent doesn't fit together, it doesn't matter. For example, tonight Rodney started the game out very poorly. Something like 0-for-4. The last couple weeks, he would not have gotten the ball back to do what he did the rest of the game. Having 2 guys dominating the ball has a way of icing out the rest of the team. Unless your name is Iverson or Hamilton, there is no "working your way into the game". I don't believe players on this team are "Dogging it" to make Iverson look bad. I really haven't seen any less effort than in the past. I just think the frustration can mount, and it's taking players out of their games.
Well they have looked decent the last two games and after grabbing the lead in the third, manager to hold on, extend it and execute all the way to the end. It is only one game so to early get excited other than the relief that the predicted double digit losing streak is ended. With that being said, it still to early speculate, but if AI is still out on Tuesday and the Pistons are in the midst of a 3 game win streak, then we will have to question the decision made 17 games ago to bring Rip off the bench when many in this Piston community as well as most of the NBA BB media community thought that AI should be the one coming off the bench with the second unit. Lke I indicated we have to wait to see how this plays out, but we have to hope that the Pistons didn't waste to many games/losses with Rip coming off the bench.
I just want to reiterate (at no one in particular) that the only dog I have in this race, is team success. I don't care how we get there. I just want to get there. A starting lineup of Amir, Kwame, Walt, Bynum and Spellcheck is fine with me. Sleepy Floyd can play the 6th man.
Yes, do check the boxscore. Including the plus minus column. You will see that JMAX was plus 9 in those 20 minutes. And indeed, we won the game with JMAX in for most of the 3rd quarter. What happened? Luck. Sheed got into foul trouble, forcing Curry to go away from the Sheed / Dyess pairing. With a combination of JMAX / Dyess, and then JMAX / Kwame, we took control of the game. Meanwhile, you will note that Sheed was minus 5 for the game. Dyess was positive - but only because he played along side JMAX for much of that 3rd quarter. The unit of Stuckey, Rip, Tay, JMAX (Dyess then Kwame) won the game for us. The Pistons have the players to pretty much maintain this unit all the time - once AI gets back. They should always play: A point guard (AI or Stuckey), a shooting gaurd (Rip or Afflalo), a small forward (Tay or ? - only hole in the rotation really - but we can get by.), a power forward (JMAX or Amir), and a center (Sheed, Dyess, or Kwame.) The Pistons have a uniquely talented roster. Tons of scoring. Lots of good defenders. We just have one glaring weakness - a coach who does not understand what wins - and what loses - games for him. Why all the losses? Curry keeps pairing Sheed and Dyess, and they, as a duo, keep playing losing basketball. Somebody please clue Curry in. You can't play two centers and expect them to be able to cover the area around the basket. Just not enough quickness.
WORD! Word. Word! Bunch of B.S. They won't win anything with this cast of spoiled petulant attitudes. Not easy to like this team. Not for me, anyhow. The cast off strategy finally backfired.
Everything's coming together for the Piston's. Blaha said the team had a spring in their step when they came out for warmups. Comments througout the game about how much better Stuckey played with the ball in his hands more...veiled opinions about how the loss of Iverson was helping the team. I can't figure out how we played so well with Hamilton out if this is the case.
Didn't see the whole game. But we executed offensively down the stretch last night. And it looked like the same plan each possession. Stuckey looks to get into the lane, if he can't he gets the ball to Rasheed in the high post, who looks to get the ball to Rip Rip looks for a shot or draws an extra defender and passes to Dice (or Tay) for an open jumper It was classic Piston half court basketball - something we just don't see with consistent success with AI. I've thought all along that he's best suited to come off the bench and create offense with the faster paced and offensively challenged second unit.
I think part of DET's problems with Sheed is that they ask him to play both the PF and C and it takes him in 2 different directions conditioning-wise. KG does not play C. If you could assure Sheed that he'd be a PF he might be able to drop some weight which would help him out at this stage. This assumes he would take advantage of the opportunity also. The rest would be up to Curry to get the right players in at the right time. I don't think it is a bad thing to make teams guard you. If they started a slimmed Sheed and Kwame then Dyess becomes the back-up C with Max or Amir at the 4.
Don't know whether to feel good for the Pistons or bad for the Magic who must feel like this monkey is never coming off their back. I don't think of Stan as a particularly good coach, but his defense that met all guard penetration with a trap around the free throw line really hurt the Pistons. Eleven steals, all in that area coming off those doubles. Someone on the Orlando staff has been watching some film. It made Stuckey look like he ought to still be in college for most of the first half. But then either the Pistons adjusted or the Magic backed off, because the fourth quarter was played very differently. Orlando without Nelson is a better team. Loved that one Prince / Dyess pick and pop in the 4th. Tried it once and didn't get Dyess free. Prince proceeds to look at the clock, dribble back over to the starting point, and starts the whole play all over again, this time freeing Dyess for a jumper he made. Can't to that if you walk the ball up the floor and start the offense with 14 seconds left. It's only one in a row, but it was sure a nice one to get.
If they cranked the heat in the arena last night he was going down. I think not having Rip or AI is better than having both. It messes the line-ups up too much to find minutes for both. Any chance they make AI wear a hat that says SALARY when he sits on the bench? Now that would be insulting. Roscoe, I think you are 100% wrong about the lack of effort thing. It just doesn't add up. You've accused Tay of dogging it, but then he played well in Miami. Why would he randomly decide to try all the sudden when nothing had changed? Did he remember the nice birthday party they threw for him down there in Flip's first year?
Is Nelson not a player that has shown tremendous improvement after a few years in the league? He's just flat out better than he was. Jameer Nelson Statistics - Basketball-Reference.com
It's tricky, and I may have added motive into my equation, instead of being perfectly objective. But my perception over the last many games is that Tay or Sheed were dogging it each night. Sometimes both. It's like Rip coming off the bench, producing like the greatest 6th man in NBA history, then suddenly the tap shut off, and he starts saying he can't be effective off the bench, when he just showed the contrary. The other night, Tay goes from the top of the key, drives left handed and finishes with an easy blow by layup. Dre remarks, "he can get that every game", which was exactly what was going through my mind. It was so quick, so effortless. The next day, all I could think was, why doesn't he get that every game? 3 times a game? Why the pump fakes, jab steps, pull up fadeaway jumpers (where he looks like a toy soldier with his rifle cocked)? Is he holding out? I dunno.
I'll sit by you. I haven't been seeing an effort problem for awhile; just the wrong mix of players and a coach that could be on par with the coaching acumen of a 2 year old. The ball was moving last night so of course players are going to look more "involved". The players didn't look like they were trying harder; they just looked more comfortable. I don't see the big conspiracy theory. I think it's natural reaction to look better overall when the team is meshing. Whoever you're preference is we have one too many guards that play the same position, and it's not surprising we look better in a style that the team is more used to (suited to?) playing or without one of them. In the first half i didn't see a flood gate of "new" effort from anyone with the exception of Rip who looked a little bit like he had something to prove on his own. In the second half the play picked up, but it's likely you're going to see more "pep" when the team is executing and actually getting results (ie; a lead). To me it's simple, it's personnel. And while this win was impressive, i still see the lack of minutes for AA, Amir, and our frontcourt SL leading to losses in other games. This was a team we historically play well against and a fired up Rip. The team is not "sandbagging" it. And various players look exactly the same effort level with AI; it's the results that are the problem. Tay looks like he'll play with anybody at this point if it will just result in a win. And to quote Sheed; "It may not look like we care, but we do, and the losing is killing us" or something to that effect. I think blaming effort is taking the easy way out and has been for awhile. The team is not constructed properly and the coach is very inexpierenced. 99% of the problems IMO can be attributed to that and sucky rotations.

I'm showing a lot of signs of pregnancy and I can't compare to my period because I never had a regular one, I don't understand how I could be pregnant either because the closest I've come to sex is outercourse and some oral sex, is it possible I got pregnant from that? We, my boyfriend and I, were wearing our underwear at the time of outercourse and other times we have done oral sex, but we always wash our hands off before and after he fingers me or touches me.
I feel:
Hi Emily B,
Welcome to EmpowHER. If you were wearing clothes, you can not be pregnant. Sperm can not swim through clothes. Your symptoms might be due to PMS or any other causes.
February 26, 2013 - 4:46amYou're sure about that? I'm really scared. My breasts feel heavy and full ands the it's just my mind playing tricks on me but my stomach feels like it's flattened and grown tight. There's no possible chance of pregnancy if we both wore underwear dry humping? I'm not sure if it's PMS either because I've never had a regular period and it's never ever felt like this before. I have a doctors appointment tomorrow to see what's happening, what if I am pregnant, I don't want to be, how do I stop this?
February 26, 2013 - 6:10amAnd last time I had done outercourse was a month ago
February 25, 2013 - 8:02pmAlso I feel tired and I have very irregular sleeping patterns

Disney, bearably
Everyone succumbs to their kids' Disney World pleas eventually, but there's no need to drown in the world of Walt. The Disney resorts are fine and their buses handy, but stay at the nearby empire of Grande Lakes, and all age brackets are equally entertained after park hours. Consisting of a 584-room Ritz-Carlton and a 998-room JW Marriott on a plot five times the size of the Magic Kingdom, the place is bursting with amenities: pools (4,000-square-foot indoor; 24,000-square-foot "lazy river" outdoor), golf (18-hole par-72 Greg Norman), spa (40,000 square feet; Florida citrus treatments), and restaurants (ten, plus Starbucks). Best of all, the concierges are experts at pain reduction, arranging door-to-door limos (about 20 minutes to any park), booking babysitters, and even, in extremis, hiring a $125-an-hour personal Disney guide to make ride reservations, plan your route, and guide you through the park. And don't miss Epcot's newer rides: Nemo for tots and the spectacular Mission: Space (pictured). (Test Track? Don't believe the hype. It's an extended advertisement for General Motors.)

I actually have a friend who works as a financial auditor. I asked him one day, "Why become an auditor?" and I was pretty surprised by his answer! He really enjoys finance and keeping everything in order. He enjoys finding those little discrepancies in financial records.
He feels like it's almost financial detective work. Sometimes you just find careless errors, but every now and then you uncover a case of fraud!
It doesn't sound terribly exciting to me either, but my friend seems to enjoy his job.

To give an example of how H1B visas don't always bring in the best and brightest, I once worked alongside a H1B coworker who cost more than they contributed. I recall the worker arguing with me about memory allocation, specifically that a situation where I used malloc to allocate a buffer was a bad thing and it should never be used. When I asked her if she understood how in the existing implementation of the "new" operator that it called malloc behind the scenes, she just stared at me. Most everything has it's place, even lowly things like GoTo's which people malign from habit. Use the right tool for the right job and drop the dogma. Sometimes good enough beats perfection and sometimes elegance loses out to getting the job done. To compound the problem, in that scenario, my argumentative co-worker was attempting to cast doubt upon my work. It worked to some extent as I had to go through a heavy code review but in the end, my choices were deemed as proper. But the H1B worker exhibited misbehavior in my opinion. Trying to throw a co-worker under the bus to better your own position is not good for a cooperative work environment and it ultimately costs a company money as time is wasted resolving bickering or false claims.
Ah, but the scenario with the H1B worker was filled with numerous problems. It wasn't much later that the worker checked in a large number of changes. Later that evening while I worked alone at the business until 2:30 AM in the morning. My manager called in because he thought one of the execs was there. He was surprised when I answered the phone asked me why I was still there. When I explained to him the broken mess I was cleaning up in the code the H1B worker checked in without testing was going to stop our release the following day if I didn't fix it, he told me to go home. The H1B best and brightest soon vanished from the workplace and not a moment too soon.
Adding insult to injury, the H1B worker would frequently declare how they cared nothing about the US. They bragged about sending their income home (to another country) and that once they secured citizenship so that their future children could gain access to the US, they would leave. Wow, that's really a valuable addition to the US. There is more, but I won't talk about that as it goes into topics that are best not discussed. Let's just say the H1B worker wasn't playing by the rules the rest of us play by.
My beef is not about H1B applicants but about business practices here in the US. Without a doubt, I have worked with some H1B coworkers who were quite enjoyable to be around. Essentially, I am happy to allow citizenship to people who are talented and intend to contribute to our society. The experience I outlined was related to one person who had a very bad attitude. Most likely the worker had bad experiences in the past and was overcompensating. But my point is that H1B visas should be for people who intend to stay here, not for people who are simply taking advantage of the educational system or jobs. Getting into school is hard enough as it is. And facing job or school enrollment competition from people outside the country who have not paid taxes or shouldered the burdens faced by a natural-born citizen seems questionable if the screening process lets sub-par performers through who care nothing for our country.
When we surround ourselves with motivated peers, we strive harder too. Businesses must think beyond simple profit motivations. We are in this for the long haul and true corporate social responsibility is important if we want to better our society. If we simply try to leverage (or abuse) cheap labor, everyone loses. Everyone has a stake in this so we must choose wisely.
Update 7/12/2013: another interesting article can be found in Computer World that talks about the trends for electrical engineers. Worth the read. While this isn't exactly directly linked to an H1B issue, I think it still has an impact because of how picky the employers can be now. The last sentence hit home quite hard because I totally understand what the person is talking about. Prior to obtaining my existing contract (which only happened because someone already working there recommended me), I had an interview with a company that employs EE and CS people. They were notorious for being picky. In fact, the moment I walked in the door, the first thing out of the interviewer's mouth was that I was a bad fit because his team moved fast (and I was older). The only reason he interviewed me was because he saw some DirectX related references on my resume and hoped I had DirectAudio experience. When I indicated I didn't, he reiterated I was a poor fit and "had" hoped I would somehow impress him. For all practical purposes, the moment I said I didn't have DirectAudio, that interview was dead. Anything I tried talking with the fella about went nowhere. I even recall him telling me how no one needed to understand Windows message pump processing anymore because it was not helpful in any manner. When you encounter people who place no value on understanding the foundations beneath a system, there's no point in arguing. They'll keep looking for their perfect employee because they have hundreds of applicants to choose from.
Update 4/26/2013: an interesting article from the Washingoton Post has been published that talks about the questionable nature to the claim there are insufficient STEM workers in the US to fill jobs. A quote from the EPI study mentioned in the article makes a strong argument:
"Basic dynamics of supply and demand would dictate that if there were a domestic labor shortage, wages should have risen. Instead, researchers found, they've been flat, with many Americans holding STEM degrees unable to enter the field and a sharply higher share of foreign workers taking jobs in the information technology industry."Update 9/28/2013: Seems IBM has settled with the DOJ in regards to violating anti-discrimination provisions with their unfair hiring practices that favored H1B applicants for software developer jobs. Having applied numerous times, even for entry level software development positions and never once hearing back from IBM, I can't conclusively say anything one way or another, but it does seem odd that a developer with over 30 years of experience never even received a phone interview. Guess I should have wrote the word H1B in my resume somewhere. But as for the settlement, I have to laugh. IBM will pay roughly 44 thousand dollars in a fine. Really? Really? Talk about chump change for a huge corporation. They likely paid 10 times that for lawyer fees. I wonder if there will be any lay-offs upcoming that add up to the tune of 44 thousand dollars?
Looking at the big picture, I suspect there is more to this than simply job shortages. The need to compete globally clearly has an impact but we also need to take long term strategy into consideration. Just something to think about.

4 A fitting end to the seriesWaddoo | 06/09/2010 | See all Waddoo's reviews (159)Top 100 Reviewer Top 10 Books Reviewer A fitting end to a gripping collection of books. Meyer has a superb talent for grabbing the reader and making us want more of the story. The final novel in the series is no exception, full of in depth thought provoking dialogue and questions the paths of Edward and Bella are not certain.This is an extremely long novel, but somehow reading it doesnt feel that way at all. I just hope the author leaves things as they are and we don't get more extras to this series as I suspect this would be too much for the majority of us. Overall this is an excellent novel and if you have read the last 3 books well you just have to read it!
5 Breaking dawnkincher | 04/12/2010 | See all kincher's reviews (3)After watching Twighlight i was hooked and couldn't wait for the next film so i bought the 4 books as after reading a review that said the books were better than the film i thought ok , i will start at the beginning and read all 4 , i started with Twighlight (amazing) then straight onto New Moon (amazing) then Eclipse (amazing) and finally Breaking Dawn omg after reading the books i couldn't wait to see how the films would capture this enthralling story and was not disappointed well maybe a little but only because you get so much more in the books, with breaking dawn it even has part from Jacobs point of view which is great , this like all the others is a must read even if you are just getting acquainted with this saga. I know you won't be disappointed, just finished the short life of Bree Tanner another great book from Stephenie Meyer and can't wait for Edwards Journal Midnight Sun
5 Easily the best in the saga!redvamp09 | 21/01/2011 | See all redvamp09's reviews (36)I really enjoyed this book and have to admit it was my favourite. I know that people are critical of the ending, but I personally thought it was the most logical and happiest way to end, and Bella deserves to be happy after all she's been through. The characters are so relatable in various ways! Really great book and an absolute essential to fans!
5 Well worth the read!Youngatheart72 | 15/11/2010 | See all Youngatheart72's reviews (4)I saw the first three movies but didn't read the books. After I had watched the movies I couldn't wait to see what happened next so bought this.WOW! I was engrossed from beginning to end. I am not an avid reader but once I had started reading I couldn't stop.I can't wait to see how this is made into a movie. Hopefully it wont get ruined.BRILLIANT!!!

Those of you who use conicals, would you mind explaining what brand and size you have, how many, how big your batch sizes are, how often you brew, and how you put them to use? What I mean about how you put them to use is do you primary and condition in your conical, then bottle or keg, or do you primary in the conical then transfer to cornies to condition so you can get another batch going in the conical sooner. And is your process the same for lagers and ales? As I understand it, one of the benefits of a conical is to be able to primary and condition in the same vessel. But if you do that you'd need two or you'd only get to brew every three to six weeks depending on the beer. Bummer that. Finally is there anything about your conical you don't like, or do you wish you'd bought another brand, and why?
I have recently acquired a Blichmann 14 gallon for which I use for both primary and secondary fermentation. I have only been doing ales and I leave them in there a total of 3 weeks. I have two small boys and a lot of competing priorities so I only get to brew about once a month so it works out fine for me. As for the conical, it was definitely something that was a "nice to have" but I got it second-hand at a good price and couldn't pass it up. It is definitely the nicest looking part of my brewing process.
Also have the Blichmann mentioned above and love it. The only downside that I see is what you've already mentioned... it's harder to run multiple batches.
I dont want to hijack this thread, but I just have a quick question... If you are using a conical, can you bottle/keg right from the conical??? That would be wonderful Edit: I guess you couldn't bottle directly from the conical because you have to prime. so nevermind
Blichmann 14 gal usually 10 gal. batches One of the nice things about a conical is that you can do a variety of things. You can use it for both primary and secondary fermenters or you can rack to a corny keg for secondary and conditioning. Then dump a new batch on top of the old yeast cake. Concial usually have 2 dump valves 1 on the bottom where you can dump the trub and 1 higher up where you can rack above the yeast cake and trub. You can also use co2 to rack to a higher level if it sits low or gravity feed if it sits up high. Here are some of the advantages: It's rugged, sanitizes easily, you don't have to shield the beer from light, it's easy to dry hop, easy to rack, easy to repitch on top of a yeast cake so you'll save money on yeast, also it's easy to harvest yeast. I see it as a huge labor saving device. Disadvantages: It's expensive, and not really necessary. I don't see any reason you could not dump the yeast and trub. Add your priming sugar and bottle straight from the conical. If it were me though I'd invest in a kegging set up before I'd buy a conical.
I built mine from a Toledo Metal Spinning hopper and lid. My brother who is a welder built the stand for me from my drawings. It is a 12.2 gallon hopper with the domed lid which adds an extra gallon or so of space for kraeusen. My typical brewday includes two five gallon mashes (I was a dumbass and bought the five gallon cooler instead of the ten) and then boiling in a keggle. I transfer the cooled wort from the keggle to the conical through the bottom dump valve and oxygenate and pitch yeast through one of the two holes in the lid. After about three days depending on fermentation temperature, original gravity and yeast pitching rate I will dump the first batch of yeast. This usually gets flushed. If I need yeast because my stores are running low I will harvest the fourth or fifth day dumps for washing. I usually dump yeast three or four times per batch. After that I will let it sit and condition for ten to fourteen days. Longer if it needs it but I have never needed to. Also I check gravity readings with each yeast dump and for a few days afterward through the racking port and will stop checking once the beer gets to my expected final gravity. After conditioning, I rack to two kegs from the racking port and will usually carbonate one in the kegerator and condition the other under pressure somewhere cool. The things I don't like about the conical are temperature regulation and moving it full of wort from the keggle to where it ferments. I have solved both problems nicely I think but it was a PITA before hand.
Damn you all, conical havers! Ok, I'm just jealous. Not to highjack, but I will: Do you all use temp controllers with your conicals?

This place really went to hell. Follow the OF standard stout. Bye.
Now I gotta get one Anyone have plastic vs steel argument?
Plastic might scratch and hide bacteria in said scratch. With the things said by my wife i think i am going to be the proud owner of a blichmann 14 gallon conical come christmas day!

Crestone, Colorado Lightning Fatality of 27 July 2003 Stephen Hodanish
Paul Wolyn
National Weather Service
This research is part of the Colorado Lightning Resource Page at NWS Pueblo, Colorado "The primary reason for these lightning casualty case studies is
to observe where victims are
This document contains large image files. A high speed internet connection (or a lot of patience) is recommended INTRODUCTION At approximately 4:37 pm mdt (2237 UTC) on 27 July 2003, a 25 year old female was struck and killed by a lightning flash while hiking along the Willow Creek Trail just east of Crestone, Colorado. The female, along with her 33 year old husband, were coming down the trail after hiking Kit Carson and Challenger Peaks, and were approximately 2.5 miles from the trail head near Crestone when the flash occurred (Figures 1 and 2). According to rescue officials, the couple were located at mid slope in heavy timber when the flash occurred. Although the male was thrown to the ground by the flash, he received no injuries related to the flash. Figure 1. Map showing hiking trails in the Crestone,
Colorado region. The red "X" marks the location of the lightning strike
victim. Trail #865 is the Willow Creek Trail. The distance between Crestone
and the location of the lightning incident is approximately 2.5 miles.
Map from Delorme. Used with permission.
Figure 2. General topography of the southern Colorado region. The victim was struck just east of Crestone, Colorado (center of image). The gray line running along the Sangre De Cristo Mountains (mountains immediately east of Crestone) is the county line seperating Saguache and Custer counties. The Wet Mountain Valley and San Luis Valley are labeled for reference. Height (scale upper left) is in thousands of feet. Estimating the Time and Location of When the Fatal Lightning Flash Occurred In order to observe which lightning flash from the National Lightning Data Network (NLDN) caused the fatality, two pieces of information need to be known. The first piece of information is knowing the exact time when the lightning flash hit the victim, and the second is the location of where the victim was struck. Typically, the victim(s) location is well documented. In this case study, the victim was not moved after being struck, and rescue authorities recorded the location of the incident with a GPS unit (in this case, latitude 37.990'N; longitude 105.625'W). Knowing the exact time of when a lightning flash incident occurs can be difficult at times, especially if it is only one victim and no other people were nearby when the lightning flash hit. However, in this case study, the confidence of when the time the flash occurred is high. The time of the incident was best estimated from the husbands watch, which as rendered inactive by the lightning flash. According to authorities, the mans watch stopped at 4:35 pm mdt (22:35 UTC). Once the temporal and spatial information is known, then
it is a matter of reviewing the NLDN data set and observe which flash occurred
at the location and time found above. The NLDN data set revealed a negative
24 kA (24,000 Ampheres) flash, with a multiplicity of 2, occurred at 4:36:12
pm mdt (22:36:12 UTC) at a latitude of 37.99513 N, longitude 105.611725'w,
very close to location of where the authorities recorded the victim with
the GPS unit. The NLDN flash data between 22:36:00 and 22:37:00 is shown
in figure 3.

Three negative cloud to ground flashes occurred during this one minute time period over the region shown above. The flash just east of Crestone, Colorado is the flash which is believed to have killed the 25 year old female. NOTE: The "+" signs in the image mark the location of the towns in this image, and do not represent positive CG flash locations. Meteorological Discussion Large scale pattern Figure 4 is a four panel display of meteorological data forecast to occur at 2300 UTC 27 July 2003. The data displayed is based of the Rapid Update Cycle model run at 2100 UTC. The upper left pane shows winds and wind speeds (image) at 250 mb (jet stream level). The upper right panel shows winds, temperatures, height fields and vorticity fields (image) at the mid levels of the atmosphere (500 mb). The lower left pane shows winds, heights temperatures at 700 mb, along with the averaged relative humidity between the 500 mb and 700 mb layer. The lower right panel shows surface pressure, winds and surface relative humidity. From figure 4, it is seen that a large area of high pressure is noted aloft, with the center of this high over Utah. Wind flow through a majority of the atmosphere over the Crestone area is from the northeast. This is also confirmed by a the 23 UTC RUC sounding taken over the Crestone area (Figure 5). At both 700 mb and the surface, a trough of lower pressure is noted extending northeast-southwest from northeast Colorado to Southwest Colorado, extending directly across the Sangre De Cristo mountains. Deep moisture is noted over the Crestone area, as seen both in figures 4 and 5. Figure 4. 2100 UTC Ruc forecast fields valid at 23 UTC 27 July 2003. The upper left pane shows winds, temperatures and wind speeds (image) at 250 mb (jet stream level). The upper right panel shows winds, temperatures, height fields and vorticity fields (image) at the mid levels of the atmosphere (500 mb). The lower left panel shows winds, heights temperatures at 700 mb, along with the averaged relative humidity between the 500 mb and 700 mb layer (image). The lower right panel shows surface pressure, winds and surface relative humidity. The little "X" immediately to the left of the "H" in "Home" marks the location of the fatal flash. Figure 5. 2100 UTC RUC sounding valid at 2300 UTC just east of Crestone, Colorado. Radar and Lightning data Composite WSR-88D radar data and lightning data where combined to observe the location and motion of the storm on this date. Based on winds blowing from northeast to southwest over southern Colorado, thunderstorms which developed over this region would be expected to move towards the southwest. Figures 6a-p show the radar and lightning data in 5 minute increments between 2125 UTC and 2245 UTC. At 2125 UTC, storms were noted in the Wet Mountain Valley over Westcliffe (click here for movie loop of fig 6a-p). These storms moved to the southwest at 20 mph and were affecting the Sangre De Cristo mountains north of Crestone by 2146 UTC. Although it is impossible to know, thunder was likely being heard by hikers on the Willow Creek trail as early as 2150 UTC (46 minutes prior to the fatal flash), as the radar/lightning plots were indicating flashes occurring to the north of Crestone at this time. Shortly after 2205 UTC, lightning was noted striking in the immediate vicinity of Crestone, and moderate to heavy rain was falling all along the trail at this time. Cloud to ground lightning continued to strike along and near the trail up to the time of the incident, although the brunt of the lightning and heavier rain activity was south of where the fatality occurred by 2236 UTC. Summary From an analysis of radar and lightning data shown in Figure 6a-p, it is clear that the couple who were hiking on this day were well aware of the lighting activity prior to the flash striking and killing the 25 year old female hiker. Rain likely began to fall just prior to 2200 UTC, and thunder was likely being heard by this time. Moderate to heavy rain was occurring on the trail head from 2200 UTC up to the time of the fatal flash, and lightning was striking very close by during this time period. From the radar and lightning data, the fatality occurred while it was raining. The heaviest rain had moved south of the area at the time of the fatal flash (Fig. 7). Numerous flashes had occurred in the immediate vicinity prior to the fatal flash. This example clearly shows it is not a good idea
to be hiking in the Colorado mountains during the afternoon time period.
Past lightning studies indicate lighting typically begins to occur in the
Colorado High Country as early as 11 am. If you plan to hike in the Colorado
mountains, you should begin your hike early in the morning, and get below
tree line by noon.
Figure 7. Same as Figure 6, except instead of 5 minutes of lightning data displayed, only 1 minute of lighting data is shown. The fatal flash, denoted by the white dash just above the "R" in Crestone is likely the flash that caused the fatality. Lightning data shown occurred between 22:36:00 and 22:37:00. Radar data is a composite image. It takes a little over 5 minutes to complete a composite image. The time shown for the radar data is the beginning of the radar volume scan. NOTE: The blue "+" signs denote the location of the towns, and do not denote the locations of positive cloud to ground flashes Acknowledgments The authors would like to thank Mike Norris, Saguache
county Sheriff, and Ben Black and Danny Haynes, emergency responders for
valuable information regarding this case. Questions regarding this case
should be addressed to Steve Hodanish.

SEUR and Adolfo Dominguez for Haïti
SEUR Foundation cooperates with the customers too
SEUR Foundation and Adolfo Dominguez (one of the main Spanish Fashion Companies) have joined their efforts to send a solidarity shipment of clothes to Haiti.
SEUR picked up the clothes in more than 200 Adolfo Dominguez shops throughout Spain. Besides, Adolfo Dominguez Company has given more than 1.300 garments for the solidarity campaign
The SEUR Foundation has been in charge of coordinating the logistics and the transport of the clothes, providing the necessary infrastructure through SEUR net, which was responsible for the pick up of the clothes at Adolfo Dominguez shops.
The results of the campaign have been excellent. A total amount of 8.000 garments will contribute to help Haiti people in these difficult moments.
Other customers have also asked the SEUR Foundation for the same cooperation. This clearly shows the important role that the SEUR Foundation plays and how positive the cooperation with the customers is and the good results it has in cases of emergencies like the one in Haiti.

Roland GR-09 Owner's Manual provides explanations that can be used by musicians in order to maximize the use of GR-09. In addition to the basic operations, you also will find a way setting, connection, maintenance and troubleshooting.
Roland GR-09 is a guitar synthesizer that comes with various features, such as extremely fast response, familiar foot pedal design, high-quality sounds, and digital effects to sophisticated interfacing.
The GR-09 is designed to sit on the floor, just like a conventional pedal board setup. Because the GR-09 includes the pitch detection circuitry, tone generator and foot switches in one compact package, setup and play is breeze. With the GR-09's simple set of controls, including two large selection dials, even a novice user can achieve results quickly. Since all the parameters are printed right on the panel, finding what you want is easy.
The GR-09 contains most of the wave data found in the renowned Roland GR-1. It contains 180 different Tones, ranging from acoustic instrument sounds to synthesized sounds.
This unit contains a battery which powers the unit's memory circuits while the main (AC) power is off. The expected life of this battery is 5 years or more. However, to avoid the untimely loss of memory data, it is strongly recommended that you change the battery every 5 years.
Please be aware that the actual life of the battery will depend upon the physical environment – especially the temperature – in which the unit is used. When it is time to change the battery, consult with qualified service personnel.
Never strike or apply strong pressure to the display. Should a malfunction occur, or if you suspect there is a problem, discontinue use immediately. Contact qualified service personnel as soon as possible. To avoid the risk of electric shock, do not open the unit or its AC adaptor.

Click and Grow lets you benignly neglect your plants
Just add batteries and keep an eye on the water tank and this smart planter does the rest of the work.
These days a lot of life is programmable. But as an avid gardener, I thought that surely nurturing seeds into little green shoots and then full-fledged fruits and flowers would require a nondigital green digit for years to come.
I was wrong. Plants, it turns out, can be activated.
A battery-powered planter pot called Click and Grow out of Estonia lets you grow real, living plants almost without lifting a finger. Even the vernacular around gardening comes fully updated -- sowing a seed can now be described as "inserting a cartridge," watering the soil is "refilling the reservoir," and gardening wisdom gleaned from years of loving dedication is now embedded in a chip.
The system is actually pretty simple. It comes in two parts: the flowerpot (includes electronics, sensors, a pump, water reservoir, and batteries) and the cartridge (includes seeds, nutrients, and software that instructs that pot to create the ideal environment for the specific seed to grow in and thrive). The system uses aeroponics (air and mist) instead of soil.
After inserting the cartridge into the pot (if you know how to use a printer you're way ahead of the game), all that remains is the very occasional refilling of the water reservoir (see how easy it is to adopt this new speak?).
Think it's still too much to handle? Don't worry, a little flashing light will tell you when to refill (typically only once a month) or when to recharge the four AA batteries (typically only once every eight months).
When the plant dies, an event now known as "reaching the end of its life cycle," simply order a new cartridge to replace the old one. The system, which has been retailing in Europe since 2011 and hit the U.S. market today, will set you back $60, with refills (basil, thyme, peppers, oh my) coming in at $19.90.
And if you'd like your indoor garden to boast its intelligence for you (after all, no one likes a braggart), don't worry -- the Click and Grow containers look like sleek little external hard drives.

Sign in to digital edition
Tuesday 3 Mar 2015
By Charlotte Burns and Ossian Ward. From Art Basel Miami Beach daily editionPublished online: 04 December 2009
Given the unholy size of the newly expanded and consolidated Art Basel Miami Beach, what hope is there for any of the numerous satellite fairs scattered across hotel lobbies and far-flung corners of the city? Judging by yesterday's opening preview of the seventh New Art Dealers Alliance (Nada) Art Fair, the poolside atmosphere of the new venue at Deauville Beach Resort was enough to lift any flagging spirits, but more importantly, proved conducive to buying.
Even competing with the ever-busy morning Rubell Family Collection brunch viewing, serious collectors such as Susan and Michael Hort and Marty and Linda Eisenberg were among the first through Nada's doors at 10am. Museum and gallery directors were not far behind, including Serpentine director Julia Peyton-Jones and White Cube's Jay Jopling, with New York art advisors Curt Marcus and Lisa Schiff also seen in hot pursuit of the beautiful young things on display across 80 booths from 30 cities. Sales came thick and fast for some galleries, none more so than New York's Rental Gallery (500), who had sold out their whole booth of Brendan Fowler's wall-bound installations, with prices ranging from $3,200 to $15,000 for multi-panelled works from the "Fall 2009" series (2009). The gallery's entrepreneurial director Joel Mesler even had his own off-site showcase: "I've set up my entire hotel room with works that have all sold." A suite of five paintings by Moya McKenna, each tagged at $8,000, went within the hour, leaving Australian director Geoff Newton of Neon Parc (504) contemplating a quick dip in the pool. Low price points encouraged such impulse buying. Jack Hanley (307) from San Francisco parted with Erwin Wurm's resin-cast gherkin for $4,500 to collector Beth Rudin DeWoody and a small graphic Bjorn Copeland collage, Keep Off the Grass, to New York collector Eileen Cohen for an undisclosed sum. Leo Koenig (309) had a $40,000-and-below policy, with five tenacious sprouting-leaf sculptures in bronze by Tony Matelli on reserve for $7,000 to $20,000. "I've made my best buy of the day," said curator Elliot McDonald, referring to the $150 Adam McEwan photocopy work he snapped up from White Columns (300) for London's Hiscox Collection.Celebrating 40 years of White Columns, director Matthew Higgs noted: "It's nice being 15 feet from the beach, and getting a change of scene. It's boring to show in the same space year after year. This forces you to recalibrate." Everyone was happy with the faded grandeur of the historic Deauville, host to the Beatles in 1964, despite the chandelier-strewn ceilings that seem at odds with Nada's edgy reputation. "I love the carpets," said one collector, referring to the plush pile. Upbeat stand owner Lisa Cooley (204)—reporting multiple sales of metal weldings by Andy Coolquitt at $4,000 apiece—said: "The Ice Palace venue last year was covered in dust and dirt. You couldn't even wrap things on the floor." Praise was also given for cheaper booths, a shorter fair and free entry to all: "We've wanted them to get rid of ticket charges for a while," said Dublin's Finola Jones of Mother's Tankstation (601)."Dealers and artists, we're all enjoying ourselves," said Kavi Gupta (316), whose young charges were hanging out nearby. "People want to see quality work by really good young artists at affordable prices, so that's what we've brought." His booth was swamped by eager buyers keen on Anneberg Foundation grant recipient Angel Otero, whose large gold 10 Karat Still Life, 2009, went to the Nerman Museum in Kansas for $15,000. There were fist-bumps at On Stellar Rays (102), but the most fun to be had was outside at Cumulus Studios, the purveyors of "outdoor functional objects by contemporary artists". Neither Liam Gillick's smoker-friendly furniture, nor Rirkrit Tiravanija's chrome ping-pong table ($58,000) had sold yet, but who wouldn't want to be out there in the sun, batting balls?

Awesome Things (39 pics) Master Sword: Zelda Twilight Princess. Master Sword : Zelda Twilight Princess This replica of Link's Master Sword from Zelda: Twilight Princess is a perfectly accurate cosplay and collector prop.
The sword was made with durable resin and reinforced with aluminum or fiberglass rods for structural support, making it well balanced for carrying as a cosplay prop. The paint was custom automotive paint for a metallic and mirror-like shine, and to resist minor scratches. The sword measures about 42" long, and weighs about 3lbs.

They were originally powered by two cylinder Harley Davidson Motorcycle engines but they rattled like heck because of the two cylinder vibration and Tom replaces them with four cylinder Honda or Kawasaki 750's and a couple have been measured as capable of 160 MPH, which is terrifyingly fast in machines with such a short wheelbase.
