I have, so far, been very pleasantly surprised by the Kia vehicles that I have had an opportunity to test drive. I think I have mentioned that Kia's were never on my radar and quite purposely pushed out of my consideration. I love that my mind has been completely changed on their lineup and I look forward to seeing the amazing designs and updates they continue to develop.
The 2013 Kia Sorento was another amazing ride! My 5 year old son spent a lot of time commenting on the 'soft ride' as it 'made the road soft'. I guess maybe he thinks my personal vehicle isn't such a smooth ride? Well, he is right - the 2013 Sorento was a very smooth ride! I love the feedback that my children provide on the vehicles that I review. The comparisons they make and the features they enjoy are interesting to consider.
The Sorento is a fantastic and well designed crossover utility vehicle. I had assumed that it would be small and seat five people. My kids loved the fact that it actually has third row seating, which allows it to seat up to seven passengers. They spent nearly every trip in that third row. Maybe they feel a little too close to me most of the time in our sedan? I'm not sure - but I won't take offense. I remember loving the third row of my parent's station wagon!
The model we tested also had a panoramic sunroof. That was a feature I had never thought too much about. The kids really enjoy when a vehicles comes with a sunroof and immediately make sure that i have it opened when they sit down.
I am more and more preferring vehicles with a sleek profile and swept-back lines. The 2013 Kia Sorento has just that! Something about these features make the vehicles appear in motion while sitting idle.
The stitched leather seating was one of my favorite aspects. It adds to that sleek feel and appearnce of vehicle! Honestly though, the seat warmers were my absolute favorite this time. Maybe that is because I reviewed this during the Winter? It could be because everyday that I test drove the Sorento - the weather wasn't cooperative and it was freezing outside. Either way, the seat warmer and I became well acquainted.
"An impressive slate of technology features also come standard, including an AM/FM/CD/MP3/Sat audio system with SiriusXM™ Satellite Radio, auxiliary and USB audio input jacks for connecting personal MP3 players, and Bluetooth® wireless technology connectivity with steering wheel-mounted voice activation controls to enable hands-free operation for all compatible mobile phones. Standard equipment on EX models such as UVO Powered by Microsoft, push button-start ignition with smart key and rear sonar back-up sensors, rear view back-up cameras and air ionization purification technology complete the modern and high-tech driving experience."
Most important on the list of vehicles inclusions are the safety features! Maybe it is just the mother in me - but I consider these staples more and more with each vehicle that may family steps into.
"All trims come outfitted with driver and passenger advanced front airbags, front seat-mounted side airbags, first and second row side curtain airbags and front active headrests, four-wheel Antilock Brake System (ABS), Electronic Stability Control (ESC) and Electronic Brake Distribution (EBD). Hill Start Assist Control (HAC) and Downhill Brake Control (DBC) also come standard on all models, the former assisting in preventing the vehicle from rolling backward when trying to pull away from an uphill gradient, while the latter helps keep the vehicle moving straight and steady down steep grades."
If you're needing more space that a sedan or coupe - but aren't swayed on a minivan, the Kia Sorento would be a fantastic option! It offers more room than a sedan, smaller than a minivan and more space than a small SUV.

Gold Medal Olympic Gifts
I always get swept up into the mania of the Summer Olympics. I love the variety of sports and all the back stories of the athletes. I especially love the events you only get to see every four years. So no doubt, my eyes will be glued to NBC to inhale as much Olympics as possible over the next few weeks.
In the spirit of the Olympics, I've found a few gold medal gifts and souvenirs that should help fans get the most out of these games.
The Olympics may start on the 27th, but I've been an Olympic athlete for the past few weeks. "London Olympics 2012" for XBOX is a game I've been devouring. With over 45 events and a dozen games optimized for Kinect, you really get the feeling you're an athlete competing in London. I'm simply unbeatable in Diving and Archery right now.
These two Nike tees really hit the mark. Rooting for the USA in the JUST DO IT tee is as bold as it gets. For a little more understated look the USA London tee is simple yet classically let's everyone know you've got Team USA's back!
I love all the stories of the athletes and the rich history of the games themselves. As these Olympics unfold, you're going to want a copy of "The Complete Book of the Olympics 2012 Edition" within arm's reach. This is an amazing anthology of Olympic history from 1896 to 2008. Basically this is the Olympics bible.
Olympic pins have long been the collectible (and tradable) souvenir at the Olympics. There are a staggering number of pins available. I love the pins that showcase the host city's style and flare. If you're looking to start a London 2012 pin collection, check out the English Bobby hat pin.
Lastly, there's something classic and summery about the Ralph Lauren Team USA cap. The hat is both a nice keepsake from the 2012 Summer games and a team supporting accessory you can wear for Olympics to come. Besides, can you ever have too many ball caps?
Want to see more Olympic gear? Check out all of our London 2012 gifts and souvenirs right HERE!

Mentoring program provide strong relationships for youth
BY RHONDA ALEXANDER For Sun-Times Media
Isaiah from Montgomery, goes bowling with his "Big Brother" Topher Gleason from Joliet at at Brunswick Zone in Naperville. Gleason has been Isaiah's big brother for six years. They spend one night a week together. | Mary Compton ~ For Sun-Times Media

Growing up, Topher Gleason of Joliet struggled to find good role models.
"There were a lot of 'untaught' men who were trying to teach me," Gleason said.
It wasn't until Gleason was an adult that he sought and found men to teach him "how to be a man." He wanted to take that knowledge and share it with somebody other than just his son. He made a pledge: to pay it forward by becoming a mentor himself. Gleason has been a mentor with Big Brothers Big Sisters of Southern Kane and Kendall counties in Aurora for the past six years.

"The main thing a boy wants in his life is to have another man show him how to be the man he knows he can be," he said.
How it works
One of the most universally recognized mentoring programs is Big Brothers Big Sisters. Their mission is to "provide children facing diversity with a strong, enduring, professionally supported one-to-one relationship that changes their lives for the better forever," said Eric Dhom, school-based program coordinator for Big Brothers Big Sisters of South Kane and Kendall Counties.
Through the BBBS program, volunteers make a commitment to mentor a young person for a minimum of 12 months.
"We look for someone who is dedicated and willing to try and make a difference," Dhom said. Commitment on the part of the grown-up is essential to becoming a successful BBBS mentor.
"Be consistent … show up, be a positive influence, have an open mind and a positive attitude, be a good listener … those are the core skill sets that we're looking for," said Jeremy Foster, vice president of corporation and foundation relations with Big Brothers Big Sisters of Metropolitan Chicago.
Prospective BBBS mentors fill out an application. The organization then conducts a layered background check. If all systems are a "go," the organization matches "littles" in need of "bigs," and with whom they share similar interests.
Because BBBS receives about 4,500 to 5,000 inquiries a year from people wanting to volunteer, they have to be stringent in their efforts to provide good mentors for the children.
As such, mentors receive training about best practices for interacting with children. This can range from walking a mentor through how to talk to a child that may have developmental issues to simple conversation starters. They also learn about proper and improper touching, listening skills and different activities that "bigs" and "littles" can do together.
BBBS has a full-time coordinator that helps mentors navigate the waters of issues that may come up as they begin the process of a successful mentoring relationship.
Meeting times are varied to accommodate the volunteers and promote full participation. Sometimes children visit their mentors at different sites — at work, at a university, or maybe at a club such as a Boys and Girls Club of America. Other times, the mentor spends time doing fun activities one-on-one with the mentee.
Foster says background checks don't stop after volunteers have been screened and matched — not by a long shot. In fact, after a mentor has been approved and matched with "a little," BBBS continues to perform background checks at least twice a month.
"Because you're still matched with our kid through the life of the program ... we want to know what type of person you are," he said.
The rewards
Isaiah, 13, of Montgomery, who was matched up with Big Brother Gleason, confirmed that mentoring has made a big difference in his life.
"Topher talks to me a lot and he'll answer whatever questions I have … I feel like his little brother," Isaiah said.
Isaiah said the relationship with Gleason has helped him to be able to talk to people more easily and get to know them — something he didn't do before he met Gleason.
But it's not always the mentee who is learning.
"He's good in so many different ways … the greatest thing about him [Isaiah] is that he's teaching me how to be a man myself," Gleason said.

Work the Shell - Numerology, or the Number 23
I admit it, I watch a lot of movies. In the decades I've been alive (a gentleman doesn't disclose his age!), I've watched tens of thousands of movies, and average about, oh, 6–8 movies/week. Truth be told, I prefer classic movies from the '40s and '50s, but my tastes range all over the map from cheesy horror films to the latest avant-garde foreign cinema.
When I realized that the deadline for this column was rushing up, I did what any self-respecting geek would do: I got sidetracked with something else. In this case, the something else was the surprisingly nuanced and interesting The Number 23, starring Jim Carrey and directed by Joel Schumacher.
In the movie, Carrey is obsessed with numerology and how so many of the things in his life add up to the number 23. He's "haunted by the number" and ultimately "attacked by the number" as the movie progresses through its twists and turns.
What I found interesting was the method by which he found 23 to be such a pervasive number, ranging from the character's birthday (February 3) to the time on a clock (2:15 is 2/3 if you look at an analog clock face). Numerology is all about the ordinal value of letters though, where A is 1, B is 2, and so on. So much of the movie is about how words and names add up to 23 too.
Ah, I thought, could I write a shell script that would do basic numerology? Could it be that this very magazine is infused with that evil number? Let's find out!
The first step in writing a basic numerology script is to learn how to break down a word or phrase into its component parts, scrubbing it of all punctuation and white space. We also want to convert all uppercase to lowercase, or vice versa, as A and a should have the same numeric value (1).
This can be done with a single line in a script, thanks to the ever-powerful tr command:
tr '[A-Z]' '[a-z]' | tr -Cd '[:alnum:]'
The first call to tr converts uppercase to lowercase, as required (though to be completely portable, I really should have written it as '[:upper:]' '[:lower:]', but I wanted to have both common idioms demonstrated here for your reading pleasure).
The second call to tr is a bit more tricky: the -d option instructs the program to delete characters in the input stream that match the specified set, and -C reverses the logic of the match. By using '[:alnum:]', I pull out only the letters and digits, stripping everything else.
Let's see this snippet at work:
$ echo "This Is A - 12,3 - Test" | \ tr '[A-Z]' '[a-z]' | tr -Cd '[:alnum:]' thisisa123test
And, that's neatly and easily done. Now, the tougher part—how do you step through a word, letter by letter, in a shell script? That's a job for the cut command!
I'm going to use a stepping integer variable to make life easier too, called ptr (here's an example of where a Perl or C for loop with all its power is sorely missed):
ptr=1 while [ some condition ] ; do letter="$( echo $cleanword | cut -c $ptr )" ptr="$(( $ptr + 1 ))" done
The question is what condition should we be testing so that it'll get every character in the string, but nothing else? According to the cut man page, the program will produce a nonzero return code on failure, and it certainly seems to me that an invocation like this:
echo 123 | cut -c4
should be an error, because there is no fourth character, but experimentation demonstrates that it isn't the case. Here's how I tested it:
#!/bin/sh echo 123 | cut -c4 if [ $? -ne 0 ] ; then echo error condition else echo no error condition fi
Alas, the result is "no error condition". On the positive side, cut does return a null string correctly, so we can test for that. But, because we're doing maximum paranoia coding, it's useful also to have the length of the word or phrase. After all, what if it's 23 characters long?
Given that the length is already computed (with a quick call to wc -c), the conditional simply can be to test ptr against the string length, calculated after the string is cleaned up. In other words, while [ $ptr -lt $basislength ].
The hardest part of this script unquestionably is mapping letters to numeric values. Perl, C, Awk and just about every scripting language has a solution, but within the shell itself? There's nothing I can imagine without extraordinary levels of effort.
Fortunately, there's a 15-character Perl solution that lets us write a command suitable for dropping into a command pipe:
perl -e '$a=getc(); print ord($a)-96'
Thus, we have a tool to calculate the ordinal value without too much difficulty, now that we know how to extract individual letters:
ordvalue="$(echo $letter | \ perl -e '$a=getc(); print ord($a)-96' )"
Let's put it all together and see where we are:
#!/bin/sh # Given a word or phrase, figure out its numeric equivalents ptr=1 if [ -z "$1" ] ; then echo -n "Word or phrase: " read basis else basis="$@" fi basis="$( echo $basis | \ tr '[A-Z]' '[a-z]' | \ tr -Cd '[:alnum:]' )" basislength="$( echo $basis | wc -c )" echo "(Working with $basis which has \ $basislength characters)" while [ $ptr -lt $basislength ] ; do letter="$( echo $basis | cut -c $ptr )" ordvalue="$(echo $letter | \ perl -e '$a=getc(); print ord($a)-96' )" echo "... letter $letter has value $ordvalue" ptr="$(( $ptr + 1 ))" done exit 0
The conditional at the top lets this script be maximally flexible. If you specify a word or phrase when you invoke the script, it'll use that. If you forget, it'll prompt you to enter a word or phrase. Either way, that ends up as basis, which is then successively cleaned up to remove unwanted letters. basislength is the length of the resultant string, which is stepped through, letter by letter, in the while loop.
A quick test:
$ sh numerology.sh Word or phrase: linux (Working with linux which has 6 characters) ... letter l has value 12 ... letter i has value 9 ... letter n has value 14 ... letter u has value 21 ... letter x has value 24
Great. We have the basis of a numerology calculator with all the difficult work taken care of. All that's left is to do some summary values and push around possible combinations to see if we can ascertain whether that pesky 23 does indeed show up everywhere!

As Linux continues to play an ever increasing role in corporate data centers and institutions, ensuring the integrity and protection of these systems must be a priority. With 60% of the world's websites and an increasing share of organization's mission-critical workloads running on Linux, failing to stop malware and other advanced threats on Linux can increasingly impact an organization's reputation and bottom line.

Most companies incorporate backup procedures for critical data, which can be restored quickly if a loss occurs. However, fewer companies are prepared for catastrophic system failures, in which they lose all data, the entire operating system, applications, settings, patches and more, reducing their system(s) to "bare metal." After all, before data can be restored to a system, there must be a system to restore it to.
In this one hour webinar, learn how to enhance your existing backup strategies for better disaster recovery preparedness using Storix System Backup Administrator (SBAdmin), a highly flexible bare-metal recovery solution for UNIX and Linux systems.

Motivational Quote Of The Day
Carl | August 8, 2012
"If ye love wealth greater than liberty, the tranquillity of servitude greater than the animating contest for freedom, go home from us in peace.
We seek not your counsel, nor your arms.
Crouch down and lick the hand that feeds you.
May your chains set lightly upon you; and may posterity forget that ye were our countrymen."
Samuel Adams

Montana hay growers and others should work together to control whitetop, a noxious perennial weed posing an increasing threat to the state's hay supply, says Tom Benson, coordinator for the Lake County Weed District.
Whitetop, says Benson, "will displace your desirable vegetation, whether it's alfalfa, whether it's grasses – it really doesn't make a difference."
Part of what makes the weed so hard to control is the ease with which infestations spread, he says. Because whitetop matures early, its seeds are unintentionally baled and fed to livestock in first-cut hay, then spread through manure. "A mature plant will produce up to 3,000 seeds per year. Once it goes to seed that first year, it's a long-term battle.
"We probably only have a seven- to 10-day window left in the spring to control whitetop before the majority of the population has set seed. Spraying is still effective now on the mature plant, but the seeds will still be viable" and can become somewhat resistant to future herbicide treatments.
A second treatment after fall rains have begun and plants start to green up is advised. Effective grass and rangeland herbicide options include 2,4-D Amine, Telar, Escort, Cimarron Extra and Chaparral; for alfalfa, Velpar may be the only option, Benson says.
Increased vigilance; immediate removal of new plants and careful grazing, cropping and irrigation management can curb the plant's spread. But the greatest hope in checking the noxious weed will have to come not only from private landowners but also from state and local governments and the Confederated Salish and Kootenai Tribes, he warns.
"We operate under the Montana Noxious Weed Law and the Lake County Noxious Weed Law, while the tribe sets their own weed-management plan." Controlling the weed will require getting "everyone on the same page as far as what we are going to do to get this under control."

Cohabitation Agreements are similar to Separation Agreements and can be entered into by any people choosing to live together whether under a commercial arrangement (such as a joint house purchase between brothers) or two people living together but who choose not to marry.
The only difference is essentially as to the timing of the agreement, these being created at the commencement of the arrangement. These can serve as an express declaration as to how property is to be held, the circumstances in which it should be sold and how the proceeds shall be divided on sale. It can also cover other ancillary matters such as the respective contribution to utility bills, mortgage payments, insurances and other household expenditure by the parties as well as the consequences of not abiding by any particular term of the agreement (if any).
Remember Cohabitation Agreements can help to set down some practical guidelines for the relationship between yourself and your partner. Thinking these things through early on should make things much clearer and less painful in the unfortunate event of a break up.
Following a recent House of Lords decision, if properly executed and subject to the criteria required by the Court, these agreements can potentially be the last word on the division of the proceeds of a house sale and when a sale should take place. If the agreement deals with how the proceeds of the sale of a house are to be divided, it should be prepared in conjunction with a conveyancing solicitor (for example at the time the property is purchased).

I thought I would throw together another very simple tutorial on how to make your own T Tank wicks for your ego atomizers. Vicki from Cignot showed me this one, ( T tank Wick - How to make a new one OR what to do with dead atomizers) , but I found it rather lacking. I'm fortunate enough to have bought 2 boxes of the large "Clearomizers" which are total junk and I haven't used more than one.
Here's what you need:
A Clearomizer, a dead, burned out atomizer and a steady hand!
First get two pairs of pliers, grab the threaded end of our bad atomizer and grab the tube on the other end and rock back and forth until the atomizer body slides out of the tube. You should wind up with this:
Notice the metal band around the metal mesh and coil, (left side of the assembly). Gently push from the bottom of this until the coil, bridge and wick come out, (I cut the pieces apart setting the threaded end aside). We should now have something that looks like this:
Set aside the atomizer casing and metal sleeve. Next, VERY carefully and gently unwind the wire mesh. You will have to stop to remove the bridge, (just gently rock and pull it off, set aside). Continue unwinding mesh until we have this!
What we are after are the four pieces of mesh that make up the atomizer and hold the juice. Discard or set aside everything but the mesh. Now comes in our sacrificial Crapomizer, erm Clearomizer.
Simply pull the top caps off, grab the threaded end with pliers and pull the guts out of the clear tube.
As close to the coil as possible, cut our fiberglass wick away. We now have 4 usable pieces of rope that will make quite a few wicks! Notice the wick from the dead atomizer, yuck! Discard or set aside all but our new rope. Next, cut a piece of wick about an inch long and cut a small square piece of mesh off of our little pile. Get a paper clip and gently wrap the mesh around it, making a "U".
Insert our piece of fiberglass wick into the "U" and very carefully and gently roll it around the wick until it is firmly in place. You should be wrapping the coil around the middle of the wick like so:
Next, using a sharp razor blade or very small and sharp surgical scissors,( which I used), cut into the middle of the mesh and voila! Two brand new wicks! Make sure your cutting did not damage the metal "cap" we just made by gently rolling it between your fingers to get it back into perfect shape. Now, take one wick and set your extra new wick aside. Gently insert it into the plate from the bottom end and gently nudge it into place with a toothpick or something similar. Do NOT use a needle, we don't want to damage the cap we just made! Trim the wick so it JUST hangs below the bottom of the wickplate and into the coil cavity of the tank atomizer.
Insert the wickplate into your tank atomizer with the groove going in the same direction as the coil and use a bit screwdriver,( without a bit on it) to push it firmly into place, prime the wick with a few drops of liquid, insert your tank and vape away! After this entire process we still have A LOT of leftovers to make A LOT of wicks! Simply set this aside in a clean location for later use!
As far as our sacrificial pieces and parts, simply throw them away or put them somewhere,(you never know, someday a piece might come in handy for another creation!).
I hope this helps at least ONE person, if so it will have made this worth it!
P.S Selling wicks for $2.50! 2 for $4.00! (lol, im joking).

intervention can produce valid claims if coupled with other evidence about the change and with probes concerning the presence or absence of other plausible explanations.
In complex domains, single studies can seldom provide a conclusive verification of a causal proposition. It is through replication and synthesis of evidence across studies, preferably with studies that use a variety of methods (each with different strengths and weaknesses), that causal claims gain their inferential strength. In performing such syntheses, greatest weight should be given to the evidence from studies that most completely satisfy the five criteria specified above. Poorly conceptualized and executed studies may have little to offer for assessments of causal claims. In contrast, the evidence from a few well-conceived and well-executed studies can strongly outweigh the ''noise" created by a large number of studies that do not satisfy the five criteria for causality. (A similar argument was made in deliberations about the evidence related to the effectiveness of a set of complex public health programs; see Normand et al., 1995).
Finally, inferential strength is gained by examining the evidence from a variety of theoretical perspectives (as well as a variety of research methods), as specified in the framework provided in Figure 1. Establishing that biological and biomechanical processes influence tissues, that these forces are present in some work environments or work-related tasks, that their presence is associated with musculoskeletal disorders, and that their influence can be reduced by workplace redesign (or other interventions) should provide a greater understanding of the evidence than can be gained by considering each factor separately. The findings presented in the rest of this section reflect the steering committee's application of the criteria to the research literature.
Several well-established findings are supported by the papers of Rempel et al. (1998) and Ashton-Miller (1998), presented at the workshop. While certain loads can be tolerated and adapted to, all soft tissues, including muscle, tendon, ligament, fascia, synovia, cartilage, intervertebral disc, and nerve, fail when subjected to sufficient force. Data from cadaver studies provide ranges within which such failures occur, and animal models of some tissue provide support for the laboratory data. Even at levels of force clearly below the failure level, however, there is scientific evidence, from these types of studies, that tissue response to deformation can produce inflammation, failure at microscopic levels, and muscle fatigue.
Injuries to muscle from single-event and repetitive contractions have been documented in humans and in animal models. Local muscle fatigue occurs at low contraction levels when maintained for long periods. Inflammatory muscle responses have been documented in humans subjected to repetitive or prolonged loading. Muscles also are affected by individual factors, such as age and level of conditioning. These effects involve not only the tissue, but also the neuromuscular control system.
Ligaments and tendons also fail from single or repetitive loading. For tendons, disorders can occur at the insertion into the bone, in the tendon proper, or at the junction between tendon and muscle. Animal models have demonstrated the development of inflammatory responses in the tendon sheath and insertion areas (tendinitis and tendinosis).

Will This List Removal Hurt BE Aerospace (BEAV) Stock Today?
Story updated at 9:55 to reflect market activity.
NEW YORK (TheStreet) --Goldman Sachs (GS) removed BE Aerospace (BEAV - Get Report) from its Conviction Buy list Monday.
BE Aerospace fell -1.1% to $93.94 in morning trading.
The removal was a valuation call based on a $111 price target for the stock according to Goldman Sachs analysts.
Must read: Warren Buffett's 25 Favorite Stocks STOCKS TO BUY: TheStreet Quant Ratings has identified a handful of stocks that can potentially TRIPLE in the next 12 months. Learn more. --------- Separately, TheStreet Ratings team rates B/E AEROSPACE INC as a Buy with a ratings score of A. TheStreet Ratings Team has this to say about their recommendation: "We rate B/E AEROSPACE INC (BEAV) a BUY. This is based on the convergence of positive investment measures, which should help this stock outperform the majority of stocks that we rate. The company's strengths can be seen in multiple areas, such as its revenue growth, impressive record of earnings per share growth, compelling growth in net income, solid stock price performance and expanding profit margins. We feel these strengths outweigh the fact that the company shows weak operating cash flow." Highlights from the analysis by TheStreet Ratings Team goes as follows:- The revenue growth came in higher than the industry average of 3.2%. Since the same quarter one year prior, revenues rose by 20.1%. Growth in the company's revenue appears to have helped boost the earnings per share.
- B/E AEROSPACE INC has improved earnings per share by 20.7% in the most recent quarter compared to the same quarter a year ago. The company has demonstrated a pattern of positive earnings per share growth over the past two years. We feel that this trend should continue. During the past fiscal year, B/E AEROSPACE INC increased its bottom line by earning $3.52 versus $2.27 in the prior year. This year, the market expects an improvement in earnings ($4.39 versus $3.52).
- The net income growth from the same quarter one year ago has significantly exceeded that of the Aerospace & Defense industry average, but is less than that of the S&P 500. The net income increased by 21.2% when compared to the same quarter one year prior, going from $89.90 million to $109.00 million.
- Investors have apparently begun to recognize positive factors similar to those we have mentioned in this report, including earnings growth. This has helped drive up the company's shares by a sharp 45.92% over the past year, a rise that has exceeded that of the S&P 500 Index. We feel that the stock's sharp appreciation over the last year has driven it to a price level which is now somewhat expensive compared to the rest of its industry. The other strengths this company shows, however, justify the higher price levels.
- 40.03% is the gross profit margin for B/E AEROSPACE INC which we consider to be strong. Regardless of BEAV's high profit margin, it has managed to decrease from the same period last year. Despite the mixed results of the gross profit margin, BEAV's net profit margin of 10.77% compares favorably to the industry average.

It's no secret – Pinterest is taking over the world. We, like every other human being on the planet, have a Pinterest account and love to pin all sorts of things, creating an online archive of things we love – inspiration photos for nursery design, baby and children's furniture, fabulous lighting, and all kinds of interesting decor ideas. Here are some of our favorite pins from this week.
These pins are admittedly girly!
This sweet Cat and Dog Wallpaper feels so organic with the sketchy nature of the drawings. It would make great nursery wallpaper, or dare I say, a coloring wall for a little girl's room.
With the upcoming release of The Great Gatsby, we've been seeing Art Deco influences popping up everywhere. We predict that this trend will be major – it's already starting in clothing, jewelry, and will shortly be dominating in interior design – from the geometric shapes to the black and gold color palette. We'd love to see this trend incorporated into children's rooms and nurseries – so chic!
And speaking of fashion, this lovely fashion art print in vibrant coral red and ivory would be dashing in a girl's nursery. Red is fast pulling out of its rut as a "scary color" and we're seeing it used in both boy's and girl's nurseries – especially this slightly lighter coral hue.
How great is this pastel geometric rug? The color palette of bright yellow, peachy pink and sage green is soft, elegant and modern all at the same time.

D. J. David B. Spins Comics-Tunes: The Lighter Side of The Dark Knight
With The Dark Knight Rises still showing in packed theaters, it's certainly appropriate to spotlight Batman two Tuesdays in a row. Of course, with that bright spotlight shining on him, Batman can hardly be dark, can he?
I thought we'd focus this time on the Batmobile, since it's the one thing conspicuously absent from the new film. Bat-cycles are fine, and Bat-planes have their place, but nothing beats The Batmobile for sheer automotive coolness!

And this wouldn't be Comics Tunes Tuesday without a song. So click the link below to listen to "Here Comes The Batmobile"!

Well guys last week the big day arrived...... well one of the big days in this build. my engine showed up from Barrett Precision Engines. Its a beautiful engine, they did a great job! its built up from a superior kit engine. the options i went with are as follows: Forward Facing Cold AirSilverhawk Fuel Injection9:1 Comp PistonsFlow/Port the CylindersSlick MagsMetallic Platinum and Black PaintB&C SD8 Alternator with Inverted Oil Pickup AdapterSky-Tec inline hi-torque lightweight starterRoller LiftersSet Up For Fixed Pitch as equiped it weights 286 lbs, and put out 191HP on the dyno! im pretty excited and we mounted it on the plane for the first time last night. cool! now i need to get my exhaust from aircraftexhaust.net and im going to replace the flywheel with the lightened one from skydynamics. heres some pics: today im going to be making the gussets for the engine mount. i held off on fabricating them till the engine was mounted up to make sure they wont interfere with them. its a good thing i did, as the breather fitting will. also, i have to change the location of the oil pressure fitting. theres a boss on the rear of the engine for it with 2 possible locations. the one the fittings installed in is real close to the mount, and with normal operations it will work the mount. everything lined up perfectly and the hour job i thought it was going to be to hang the thing turned out to be a 10 minute job!
what prop are you going to use?
Catto 3 blade 72 dia, pitch to be determined.
Looks like Allen and the guys did another great job. Piper uses a 90 degree fitting to get the oil pressure line away from the engine mount ring. Piper's price is expensive for what it is.
Neat. Is that your secretary or finance officer in the last photo figuring up all the costs? Best regards, Brad
Haha exactly!
"the hour job i thought it was going to be to hang the thing turned out to be a 10 minute job!" That doesn't happen very often! "Pretty. Very Pretty. But can they FIGHT?" (The fake general from the Dirty Dozen.) If Barrett built it, it can fight! Looking good.
[img]smileys/smiley20.gif[/img] Now it's looking like an airplane! Very nice!
It looks like your dipstick tube may be kind of close to your dynafocal ring. Do you have any clearance there. I had to go to a Pitts style dynafocal ring to get my dipstick tube some clearance.
thanks for the comments guys. the dipstick looks real close from that pic angle. it has enough clearance so it wont hit. if the engine flexes enough for the dipstick to hit, the ring gear will be through the cowl. also, to help with this problem i have a call into lord to get their spacers with the silicon bag around them. they are supposed to really reduce engine shaking during starting. they dont make them as a kit for the 7401-2 mount that i have, but they are the same dimension as one of their kits for a mooney that they do include them with. im trying to get them to sell me just the spacer. ill talked to them friday and he's supposed to call me back monday. ill keep ya posted. heres a pic of the oil press fitting interference. a 90 deg fitting would work, but that would have to be put in before the accessory case is put on, as it would hit the engine case when you turn it. so ill be putting on a straight fitting next to it and moving the plug to this location.........
Smizo, what I really like about your acrosport: In these days of spam cans, RV's and fancy LSA's, you have rekindled an older biplane design and made it seriously cool.
Thanks Beej![img]smileys/smiley16.gif[/img]
Second on Beej's input. Way cool to see the motor on.
Here is a photo ofwhat Piperuseson a Cherokee or Aztec. Fitting is brass and they want over $30 for it.Thread is 1/8" npt in and out. It can be replaced while engine is installed on plane.
nice...... that would work perfect, if it didnt have that other port there i would go with that. put it does, so ill just put a straight fitting in the port and plug the hole its in now. thanks for the idea though!
You can buy that identical brass fitting at Ace Hardware for less then $5. Danny
Duh! Less than $5. Danny
Weatherhead 90 degree street elbow, 3400 x 2, $1.95 from Aircraft Spruce. Pitts uses these
Soooo, after starring at this thing hanging on the mount for the last few months, Vic's comment has been eating at me. The dipstick was close to the mount and it probably would have been ok but I'm not building this thing on probablys. There was no way I was going to rebuild my mount, so I was searching for ideas. Was going to grind a clearance in the side of the tube as its pretty heavy wall. I didnt like that idea as it would look unprofessional. A guy at work was up looking the project over and he came up with a solution that I'm embarrassed I didn't of! One thing I've learned from years of working on aircraft is sometimes it takes a fresh set of eyes to realize the obvious! He suggested just cutting it down! Wow, what a great idea! I tried a short tube from a 540 but it had the wrong thread, so Jim took it to his shop and parted it off and removed 7" from the tube then lathed it down and made a ridge so it fit back together perfectly. Next cut a "V" in the joint to weld it back together. I painted it up, cut 7" off the dipstick and installed it. Annnnnnddddd..... Best part, took some weight off the engine ;-)

Article brought to you by: Catholic Online (www.catholic.org)Understanding nature of HIV 'envelope' crucial in finding vaccine
By Catholic Online (NEWS CONSORTIUM)
November 3rd, 2013 Catholic Online (www.catholic.org) Key to finding a cure to AIDS, or HIV, the virus that causes AIDS would lie in deconstructing the condition's "Envelope," which is what allows the virus to enter and infect other cells. Researchers have announced a breakthrough in their research which may leads to a vaccine against the disease, still present in developed nations and raging in much of sub-Saharan Africa. LOS ANGELES, CA (Catholic Online) - The latest findings provides the most detailed picture yet of the AIDS-causing virus's complex structure. The research also successfully yielded parts of the virus that future vaccines could mimic to elicit an immune response.About 34 million people worldwide are infected with HIV. While drugs are used to manage many cases, there is currently no vaccine that can prevent new infections. To date, None of the HIV vaccines tested thus far have come close to providing adequate protection against the virus, due to the challenges posed by the "envelope" protein, which is called Env. So complex and delicate, scientists have found Env's structure difficult to transform into protein form that is suitable for the imaging technique necessary to study it. "It tends to fall apart, for example, even when it's on the surface of the virus, so to study it we have to engineer it to be more stable," Professor Andrew Ward, of The Scripps Research Institute explains. Researchers created a version of Env that has the stability and other properties needed for successful imaging. The version retains virtually all the structures found on Env. Using cutting-edge imaging methods, researchers were then able to study the new Env in minute detail. In the first study ever of Env, the study revealed the envelope's structure in finer detail than has been reported before. The study for Science Express revealed how Env assembles and undergoes shape changes during infection, and showed how it compares to envelope proteins on other dangerous viruses, such as flu and Ebola. "Most of the prior structural studies of this envelope complex focused on individual subunits - but we've needed the structure of the full complex to properly define the sites of vulnerability that could be targeted, for example with a vaccine," Professor Ian Wilson of TSRI said.

Carnival Photos Tour of Chongming Island, 11- 13 May, Chongming, China 2.1 UCI A Carnival was held for the duration of the Tour of Chongming Island and the World Cup. Locals from the Chongming area, Chongxi town in particular, were there each day, looking at the stalls and watching the demonstrations, bands and acts on the main stage. The carnival was just behind the start / finish area for Stages 1 and 2 of the Tour and for the World Cup, so visitors were able to line up in their hundreds to then watch the pre-race activities and team presentations and of course, the finish and podium ceremonies.

Route1 Introduces eStore, Online Marketplace for Its ProductsBy Arvind Arora, TMCnet Contributor With the ever increasing number of threats to the online security of vital data and resources, companies have been relying upon means to access their data in a secure and remote manner. Route1, a provider of advanced security and identity management solutions for offering secure access to a range of digital resources and sensitive data, has announced to introduce its eStore, and online marketplace for its products and services. Customers of the company comprise of a variety of businesses, government and military organizations such as the U.S. Department of Defense, the Department of Homeland Security, the Department of Energy, the Department of the Interior and the Canadian Government. Route1 offers an advanced communications and service delivery platform, named MobiNET that provides secure identification and individualized access to networks and data. The company is based in Toronto, Canada and deploys FIPS 140-2 cryptographic modules to follow the strict regulatory requirements for privacy and security in a streamlined manner. eStore of Route1 enables the enterprises of all sizes to make online purchase of its advanced cybersecurity and teleworking solutions that are helpful in gaining secure, remote access to critical data files and information. MobiKEY solution of Route1 is available online at a price less than $500 per user, and can be installed without making any changes in the network or hardware. The solution features a MobiKEY Classic device and one-year TruOFFICE subscription. With the help of MobiKEY, enterprises can provide their employees to enjoy the same working experience that they have at their office, and can be used at their existing PCs or laptops. Further, it ensures that the data exchanged during the remote interaction within network's perimeter and firewall. Without having to purchase any additional servers, the MobiKEY solution can be used at relatively much less bandwidth consumption with the average bandwidth usage per connected user being just 20 kbps. "As a global community, we face a hurricane of cyber threats, security breaches and other electronic attacks," commented Tony Busseri, chief executive officer at Route1. "In this volatile environment, it is imperative that government, public and private enterprises of all shapes and sizes have access to the resources that will help them protect their critical information and data files.

Science, Natural Philosophy & Technology
Science and natural philosophy are systematically constructed realitymaps. Technology is their practical outcome. However, corporatism and politics have hijacked science for there own ends, only funding research that does not challenge the socio-political and economic status quo.
Hypothesis - Documentary on the Science of 9-11 Twin Towers / Sep 2012
This "conspiracy" is not going away because the official version of events is so seriously scientifically flawed. Steven E. Jones is a BYU physics professor who decided to investigate 9-11 from a scientific perspective. This documentary covers some of his scientific conclusions.
Evidence of Explosives Being Used on 9-11 is Irrefutable (Mar 2010)
An academic paper published in "The Open Chemical Physics Journal" last year conclusively proves that a variant of the demolition explosive thermite was found in all dust samples collected from the ruins of the World Trade Center. The paper — Active Thermitic Material Discovered in Dust from the 9/11 World Trade Center Catastrophe — gives solid scientific backing to the numerous 9-11 truth movements that are calling for an independent enquiry.

On this page >> Write-up Results Photos Race 2 Coervorden - Hoogeveen 141km Marianne Vos (DSB BAnk) took a victory in Hoogeveen in the sunshine ahead of Trixi Worrack (Équipe Nürnberger) and Emma Johansson (Red Sun Cycling). The Dutch road Champion sprinted to win on the same finishing straight as will be used on Monday in the World Cup race, the Ronde van Drenthe. The first major event of the day was the relatively short cobbled section through woods. The dry, dusty conditions caused the race to explode into four main groups. There was a leading group of 8 riders, including Vos and Johansson. Significantly, there were no Team Columbia Women team riders there, so they spent the next kilometres driving the front of the next group to try to catch the leaders. As the race climbed the Col Du Vam the first time, everything was back together again. The circuit, based on the lanes around Hoogeveen and Col du Vam saw Kim Anderson (Columbia) and Tatiana Antoshina (Gaus RDZ) get away together. The pair managed a small time gap, were caught and immediately went away again. They led over the Col du Vam for the short laps which followed, but the race was back together again for the final ascent, 15 km from the finish. Noemi Cantele (Bigla Cycling Team) was at the front for the descent, but despite attacks, nobody was able to get away from the front of the attentive group which formed. The race into Hoogeveen and the finish line was tense and relatively technical, with some of the traditional route lost due to roadworks. The final corner came 300m from the finish. Marianne Vos (DSB Bank) was in the small group with Trixi Worrack (Équipe Nürnberger), Emma Johansson (Red Sun Cycling), Sarah Duester (Cervelo Test Team) and Loes Gunnewijk (Team Flexpoint). Vos had time at the finish to raise her arm in salute, whilst Worrack had the better of Johansson for second. Results - Top 10 - click here to see full result

same rhythm as that last song.. diff melody, same flow as the last song... same nasally singer.. whats different... weak as usual.
the beat is cool.
when dis dude gon stop rappin bout the same stuff. its like he aint got nuthig to talk about.
Omg this guy sounds just like bow wow!!!!
oh snap^^^ @ the comment above me. lol
why does this say left feild? this sounding like the last song.
Shit is dope, I dont know what them niggas talkin about. This dude just gets better and better, I cant wait for an EP!
I don't think this sounds like his last song at all.. Is he coming out with an Ep or something tho? Or is he just releasing songs randomly
I agree. This sounds like complete utter shit.
Why do so many people hate this guys music?
The guy that sings sounds like a scuba diver or like he sick.
That beat is nice! That singer. Not so much. It's obvious that he's trying to put on a stylistic tone but it's undeveloped and nasal.
like the last song but I don't know about this one. Kinda wasn't feeling any of it. Cept the beat.
I give it a 4 out of 10.
-_- smh some people are in denial about their sorry music. why did my friend send me this link again??!!!
this guy is a sad excuse for a rapper, and that guy is a sorry excuse for a singer...
off this. too weak
too many haters...

4.5 Cave Johnson, Founder and CEO of Aperture Science. jkpunk | 17/09/2012 | See all jkpunk's reviews (1) I must stress that this is only a replica. How ever if you wish to try an actual fully functioning portal device then we are currently looking for test subjects.
4.5 Nice piece of Portal Merchandise DuncanStyles | 16/08/2012 | See all DuncanStyles's reviews (27) As soon as I had ordered this I had 2nd thoughts but now that I have it I am glad I didn't cancel.First off, these things are NOT 30" long, its more like 20". The box is about 30" long.Its not a toy, it feels like it would break in the wrong hands, there are certainly weak points around the the pipes and the (for want of a better word) prongs on the front.It will take up a fair bit of space if you decide to put it on show and you would need the official stand to make it look its best.There is another version out soon that has blue stripes, so take your pick on colours.
4.5 Absolutely Brilliant ! RepulsionBot | 03/08/2012 | See all RepulsionBot's reviews (1) This may seem an expensive item, but what it is, is well worth the price. The replica is well built, the LEDs are bright and the sound (when fired) is clear. This is a brilliant item for any portal fan and is defiantly worth getting if your a fan of the 'bots- especially P-Body :)
4.5 This was a triumph! I'm making a note here "Huge Success" ThatDaveCarter | 25/07/2012 | See all ThatDaveCarter's reviews (1) So it turns out, the science got done, so they made a neat gun for the people who are still alive! I Received my portal gun today, and it's totally the most awesome geek item I own! The gun itself is very sturdy, which is perfect for all the testing you're going to be going through!The noises and lights are spot on, although I do think there was a slight design flaw. When flicking the switch to go from the red portal to the orange portal, it has to travel through the off position. Meaning it flashes off and on if you don't flick it quick enough.Also a little bit gutted that there was no sarcastic note from GLaDOS about how much weight I've put on, and no certificate of authenticity etc.All that aside, this is a neat gun! Now if you'll excuse me, I'm off to do some science!P.S. Play.com kept me informed of every stage of the delivery process, and the item arrived quickly and well within the allotted time slot. Thanks!
4.5 Brilliant! Amazing in every way! whiteflag | 19/07/2012 | See all whiteflag's reviews (3) I'm a huge portal fan and was not disappointed when my portal gun arrived. Feels and looks great, I prefer this to the plain white one as it doesn't look as dull. Great product would definitely recommend, well done NECA!

Run MATLAB script or function on worker
j = batch('aScript')
j = batch(myCluster,'aScript')
j = batch(fcn,N,{x1, ..., xn})
j = batch(myCluster,fcn,N,{x1,...,xn})
j = batch(...,'p1
| The batch job object. |
| The script of MATLAB code to be evaluated by the worker. |
| Cluster object representing cluster compute resources. |
| Function handle or string of function name to be evaluated by the worker. |
| The number of output arguments from the evaluated function. |
| Cell array of input arguments to the function. |
| Object properties or other arguments to control job behavior. |
| Initial values for corresponding object properties or arguments. |
j = batch('aScript')
runs the script code
of the file aScript.m
on a worker in the cluster
specified by the default cluster profile. (Note: Do not include the .m
extension with the script name argument.) The function returns j
a handle to the job object that runs the script. The script file aScript.m
copied to the worker.
j = batch(myCluster,'aScript')
is identical
to batch('aScript')
except that the script runs
on a worker according to the cluster identified by the cluster object myCluster
j = batch(fcn,N,{x1, ..., xn})
runs the
function specified by a function handle or function name, fcn
on a worker in the cluster identified by the default cluster profile.
The function returns j
, a handle to the job object
that runs the function. The function is evaluated with the given arguments, x1,...,xn
returning N
output arguments. The function file
for fcn
is copied to the worker. (Do not include
the .m
file extension with the function name argument.)
j = batch(myCluster,fcn,N,{x1,...,xn})
identical to batch(fcn,N,{x1,...,xn})
except that
the function runs on a worker in the cluster identified by the cluster
object myCluster
j = batch(...,'
additional parameter-value pairs that modify the behavior of the job.
These parameters support batch for functions and scripts, unless otherwise
indicated. The supported parameters are: p1
— A 1-by-1 struct
to define the workspace on the worker just before the script is called.
The field names of the struct define the names of the variables, and
the field values are assigned to the workspace variables. By default
this parameter has a field for every variable in the current workspace
where batch is executed. This parameter supports only the running
of scripts.
— A single string
that is the name of a cluster profile to use to identify the cluster.
If this option is omitted, the default profile is used to identify
the cluster and is applied to the job and task properties.
— A string
or cell array of strings that defines paths to be added to the MATLAB® search
path of the workers before the script or function executes. The default
search path might not be the same on the workers as it is on the client;
the path difference could be the result of different current working
folders (pwd
), platforms, or network file system
access. The 'AdditionalPaths'
property can assure
that workers are looking in the correct locations for necessary code
files, data files, model files, etc.
— A string
or cell array of strings. Each string in the list identifies either
a file or a folder, which gets transferred to the worker.
— A logical
value to specify whether code files should be automatically attached
to the job. If true
, the batch script or function
is analyzed and the code files that it depends on are automatically
transferred to the worker. The default is true
— A string
indicating in what folder the script executes. There is no guarantee
that this folder exists on the worker. The default value for this
property is the cwd
of MATLAB when the batch
is executed. If the string for this argument is '.'
there is no change in folder before batch execution.
— A logical
flag to indicate that the toolbox should collect the diary from the
function call. See the diary
for information about the collected data. The default is true
— An integer specifying
the number of workers to make into a parallel pool for the job in
addition to the worker running the batch job itself. The
script or function uses this pool for execution of statements such
as parfor
and spmd
that are inside the batch code.
Because the pool requires N
workers in addition
to the worker running the batch, there must be at least N+1
available on the cluster. You do not need a parallel pool already
running to execute batch; and the new pool that batch creates is not
related to a pool you might already have open. (See Run a Batch Parallel Loop.)
The default value is 0, which causes the script or function to run
on only a single worker without a parallel pool.
Run a batch script on a worker, without using a parallel pool:
j = batch('script1');
Run a batch script that requires two additional files for execution:
j = batch('myScript','AttachedFiles',{'mscr1.m','mscr2.m'}); wait(j); load(j);
Run a batch pool job on a remote cluster, using eight workers for the parallel pool in addition to the worker running the batch script. Capture the diary, and load the results of the job into the workspace. This job requires a total of nine workers:
j = batch('script1','Pool',8,'CaptureDiary',true); wait(j); % Wait for the job to finish diary(j) % Display the diary load(j) % Load job workspace data into client workspace
Run a batch pool job on a local worker, which employs two other local workers for the pool. Note, this requires a total of three workers in addition to the client, all on the local machine:
j = batch('script1','Profile','local','Pool',2);
Clean up a batch job's data after you are finished with it:
Run a batch function on a cluster that generates a 10-by-10 random matrix:
c = parcluster(); j = batch(c,@rand,1,{10,10}); wait(j) % Wait for the job to finish diary(j) % Display the diary r = fetchOutputs(j); % Get results into a cell array r{1} % Display result

Net Migration Falls By 34% To 163,000
Net migration into Britain has fallen by a third, according to new figures released by the Office for National Statistics.
A net flow of 163,000 migrants came to the UK in the year to June 2012, down from 247,000 in the previous year.
The decline was driven by a drop in the number of immigrants coming to Britain, which fell from 589,000 to 515,000, while the number of migrants leaving the country rose from 342,000 to 352,000.
Prime Minister David Cameron and Home Secretary Theresa May want to reduce net migration from non-EU countries to less than 100,000 before the next election in 2015.
There was a significant decrease in the number of immigrants arriving from New Commonwealth countries, which includes African countries such as Botswana, Kenya and Malawi and Indian subcontinent countries such as Bangladesh, India and Pakistan.
