Photo Release -- Northrop Grumman Delivers CIRCM System To U.S. Army Ahead Of Schedule
ROLLING MEADOWS, Ill., Jan. 31, 2013 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Northrop Grumman Corporation (NYSE:NOC) has delivered the first of eight Common Infrared Countermeasures (CIRCM) missile defense systems to the U.S. Army two months ahead of schedule.
A photo accompanying this release is available at http://media.globenewswire.com/noc/mediagallery.html?pkgid=16943 Northrop Grumman successfully completed acceptance testing with the Army on the first CIRCM suite of equipment and delivered a complete hardware set. This testing, which confirmed system performance, size, weight and power compliance, was completed two months ahead of schedule and validates the Northrop Grumman offering as capable and mature.
The system was delivered under a $31.4 million Technology Demonstration contract to develop the next generation of aircraft survivability equipment to defend helicopters against man-portable air-defense systems and other heat-seeking munitions. The system is now scheduled to enter reliability testing.
"With the growing proliferation of infrared threats, it is more important than ever that our troops have effective protection from these missiles," said Jeffrey Palombo, vice president and general manager of Northrop Grumman's Land and Self-Protection Systems division. "This early delivery confirms the maturity of our CIRCM solution and is an important step toward getting this technology into the field. We will make certain that our CIRCM system performs beyond the Army's expectations and remains ready to address evolving threat contingencies at a moment's notice."Check Out Our Best Services for Investors

Natuzzi S.p.A. Fourth Quarter And Fiscal Year 2012 Financial Results
The Industrial Margin during the last quarter of 2012 was equal to 31.6% on total net sales, down from 33.3% reported for the fourth quarter of 2011. The industrial margin was negatively affected by the different sales mix, with consumers preferring lower-priced products, as well as the labor cost that has increased in the foreign plants in particular. Such effects were partially offset by a more efficient manufacturing process.
During the fourth quarter of 2012, the incidence of selling expenses (transportation, commissions to agents and advertising) on total net sales passed from 18.6% reported one year ago to 18.1% in the last quarter of 2012. More specifically, the incidence of transportation costs on net sales passed from 9.9% in the fourth quarter of 2011 to 10.8% in fourth quarter of 2012, due to relatively more shipments towards North America and more sales of medium/low-end products (Private Label); the incidence of commissions to agents passed from 2.2% to 1.7% in fourth quarter 2012. The percentage of advertising costs on total net sales decreased by 100 basis points, passing from 6.6% in 2011 fourth quarter to 5.6% in the last quarter of 2012.
Other Selling, General & Administrative expenses decreased over 2011 fourth quarter both as percentage on total net sales (from 22.6% in fourth quarter 2011 to 19.0% in the last quarter of 2012) and in Euro terms (a €5.2 million decrease, from €29.3 million reported one year ago to €24.1 million in the last quarter of 2012) thanks in particular to the rationalization measures implemented at the Group level.
For the reasons highlighted above, during the fourth quarter of 2012 the Group reported a negative EBITDA of €2.9 million, as compared to a negative EBITDA of €6.2 million for the same comparable period of 2011, and an operating loss of €7.0 million, versus a negative EBIT of €10.3 million reported one year ago.

[Quote] Acidifying the mash water to intended mash pH effectively reduces its alkalinity to 0. The graph at http://wetnewf.org/pdfs/alkalinity-reduction-with.html (which I originally posted here) shows the percentage alkalinity reduction as a function of target pH and original pH. Just remember that every equivalent of alkalinity removed is replaced my an equivalent of the anion of the acid. This is what Sierra Nevada is supposedly doing, setting all brewing water to 5.5?
sorry if im off topic but would it be wise to add calcium cloride to poland spring water for a BGSA? It is soft and low in minerals
I really appreciate all of this information and interaction. And to think I actually started down this road because I was trying to achive clarity!! I'm using my pH meter twice as much as my refractometer! i'm using the EZ for my spreadsheet and will continue to report out on my data. The biggest variable seems to be in estimating total water. Very hard to predict how much gets left behind in the tun. You don't know until it's drained. I'm getting better at predicting when to stop adding more sparge water. Cheers!
[QUOTE=Hermit;4826982]You could just sparge until you hit your boil volume. There is nothing magical about the amount left in the tun. Wouldn't that make it difficult to approximate the various salt aspects, e.g., SO4-- for IPA, etc.? They would be diluted.
So I am going to be making my first batch this weekend using RO water and I just wanted to get some clarification what I should add. I will be making an BarleyWine, using 2-row,aromatic, crystal 30 and 80, and some rye. Its for a 5 gallon batch and according to beersmith, I am using 6.66 gallons of strike water and 3.42 gallons of sparge water. Does anyone have any good recommendations on what minerals to add. When it comes to the water adjusting, I am still completely lost.

It's official: Viking Classic washed out
MADISON, Miss. -- PGA Tour officials canceled the weather-stricken Viking Classic on Saturday because of unplayable course conditions.
There will be no makeup date and players will move on to the final event of the season, the Nov. 12-15 Children's Miracle Network Classic in Orlando, Fla.
Annandale Golf Club received 1.75 inches of rain overnight Friday and Saturday, completely soaking an already marginal course that had areas of standing water and large tracts of mud.
Madison has received more than 20 inches of rain in the past six weeks.
"I told them this was closer to a FEMA disaster site than a golf course," tournament director Randy Watkins said. "Somebody asked if you could play somewhere else. I don't think you could play golf within 150 miles of here."
Officials postponed, then canceled play Thursday and Friday mornings after nearly constant rain. There had been hope officials might shorten the tournament to 54 holes and play next week or weekend, but groundskeepers didn't believe the course would dry that quickly.
Slugger White, PGA Tour vice president for rules and competition, said commissioner Tim Finchem had asked the board for permission to play a 36-hole tournament as early as Monday but was unsuccessful.
"We just couldn't get there," White said.
This is the first time a tournament has been scrapped outright because of weather since the 1996 AT&T Pebble Beach National Pro-Am, which was canceled due to unplayable conditions. The last rainout came in Houston in 1991, though that tournament was rescheduled.
The Viking Classic was important for a few dozen players who are chasing tour cards for the 2010 season. The top 125 on the money list get through, and most of the players hovering at that level were in attendance. They now have just one chance to move up.
Rich Beem entered at No. 124 and hoped to have a good tournament to wrap up his spot on the tour. Now he'll be in a sudden-death situation of sorts in two weeks.
"I would be lying to you saying it wasn't nerve wracking to a point," Beem said. "The only thing I can control is how well I play. If I could go home with this week, with a week off now, get practice time in and get ready for Disney, that's all I can control. I'm looking forward to the opportunity to go out to Disney and play well and see if we can't wrap this thing up."

"We expect GM to take notable share from Ford in the full-size pickup segment in 2006 and, particularly, in 2007."
Himanshu Patel
"In Argentina in particular you have seen a pickup in volatility over the last couple of months, and it has to do with the fact that it has higher yields available and longer duration and makes it prone to volatility."
Enrique Alvarez
"This is similar to when we decided to get into the pickup truck segment."
Joe Veltri
"We believe that our estimates are fair. However, with a slight pickup in end-market demand or market-share gains, it is reasonable that they may be conservative."
John Rizzuto
"I still want to be the candidate for guys with Confederate flags in their pickup trucks. We can't beat George Bush unless we appeal to a broad cross-section of Democrats."
Howard Dean
"After that, it was just a pickup game."
Lee Underwood
"This was a bullish report for petroleum products. Clearly we are seeing a pickup in heating demand, which is having an effect on inventories."

Recently Rebecca Frech drew attention to the accessibility problems that many of us still face in parishes throughout the country.
What's perhaps most surprising is that it's not just old buildings that are a problem. Even some brand new or newly renovated structures don't seem to take accessibility into account (and, it should be noted, churches do not, by law, have to). Using her own newly renovated Parish as an example, Frech notes:
Those beautiful hand-scraped doors impress visitors with their obviously-expensive weight. They set the tone for the worship space that lies beyond.
There are nine doorways into the church. All are beautiful. All are heavy. All are self-closing. None are handicapped accessible.
At no time in the planning of this new and expensive building was accessibility considered to be a priority, and it shows. The automatic door buttons which would have remedied the problem were an additional expense that was not deemed a priority.The interior is just as imposing, and just as equally inaccessible.
The cathedral ceilings soar, the stained glass glitters, the acoustics are perfection; and yet there is nowhere in this entire church, which seats over 1,000 easily, for a person in a wheelchair to sit. The non-ambulatory members of the parish have the choice of placing themselves either in the middle of an aisle, behind a pillar, or behind the very last pew. Parishioners with walkers have nowhere to place them that is out of the way. The woman at the 10am Mass who has a service dog seats him in the aisle out of necessity.
This, unfortunately, isn't unique. A commentor relates:
My bishop spent millions having elaborate redecorations done to the cathedral, and neglected to put an access ramp onto the front steps. Now he is fundraising for a $250,000 ramp, to go with the new expensive look of the place. Its practically blackmail, a lot of his big donors are the frail elderly who can't make it up the steps.
Now, I know churches are not required to comply with the ADA, but I can't imagine how they could have overlooked (or, God forbid, deliberately left out) something as basic as a way for people with disabilities to access the building at all.
I've traveled a lot in the last 15 years and it's always interesting — and sometimes frustrating — to see how different parishes accommodate their disabled members/visitors. Doors can definitely be a problem and I've been to several churches where I was not able to sit with my friends and family. But, I think bathrooms tend to be where I have trouble the most
In fact, the day before I read Rebecca's post I went to Mass at the Cathedral here in Pensacola and was not able to even get through the bathroom door! When I asked if there was an accessible restroom somewhere, I was told that I would have to go to the parish hall next door…and that they would have to unlock it for me first.
Frech concludes her post with a list of several recommendations, including:
- Those push-button door openers on at least one set of doors would be amazing!
- If you can't afford the $2,500 approx. per door, then please dismantle or slow down the self-closing mechanisms. Having a door slam into you when you're not in a position to catch it is dangerous.
- If that doesn't work, prop the door open.
- Have door greeter/opener people as a last resort. People leave or wander off. It's not entirely their fault, stuff happens, it just means that the handicapped can't get in/out until help arrives.
- Handicapped parking with room for a chair lift is a must. This is a huge need especially in older or urban parishes where that may not have been a consideration when the parking lot was built. The absence of room to load/unload a wheelchair means that our family cannot attend your parish.
- Handicapped entrances near the handicapped parking. Can you imagine having to go all the way around the church through the rain when you're sitting down (and your hands are getting filthy from the mud and rain) because of someone's poor planning? Been there, done that. It's really no fun.
- Handicapped accessible bathrooms near the handicapped entrance. Sometimes you've just really gotta go!
- Handicapped stalls and hand rails do not make a bathroom accessible. Ask whether or not a person with physical limitations get in and out of the door, and remedy what's wrong. (Is it heavy? Is there too sharp of an angle to get a wheelchair around?)
- If the door is difficult to open, it needs to be fixed.
- If it's feasible to remove it completely without compromising modesty, that's a really cheap fix.
- Ramps need to end flush with the sidewalk. Powerchairs can't go over those bumps, and it takes a bit of coordination for someone in a manual chair to make it. Please find a way to smooth it out.
- Wide aisles that have room for a chair to fit in the Communion line for anyone who wants to receive with their family and/or the rest of the congregation.
- A cutout or niche in at least one pew where a chair, walker, service dog, or stroller could easily fit.
- At least one outlet in the sanctuary where oxygen tanks or equipment could be plugged in in the case of low batteries or an emergency.
- Please remember that the sanctuary isn't the whole church. If you're having doughnuts in the hall, is there a way for everyone to get there? Is there an elevator or chair lift available if the hall is up or downstairs?
- Remember that people with physical limitations aren't trying to be annoying or exasperating. They have the same need for the Sacraments that the rest of us do. We have a moral obligation to do everything we can to make sure it's feasible for everyone to be able to receive them.
- It doesn't have to happen over night. Slow and steady progress is still progress and is welcoming because it shows concern for the well-being of the differently-abled.
Along with some of these structural accommodations, something I've often wondered about is the kind of training ushers get on how to treat people with disabilities who come to Mass. For example, it is nice when they actually ask if I want communion brought back to me instead of just assuming. I usually prefer to go up with the congregation if I can.
What do you think? What do you see? Are churches doing enough to provide access for handicapped individuals? What more could they be doing?
Personally, I tend to keep quiet and give most churches the benefit of the doubt, assuming they're doing what they can within their means to accommodate the disabled. But Rebecca's post encouraged me to try to be a little more proactive in suggesting where things can be improved when I come across them.
Understandably, cost is an issue with many of these things and churches are not obligated to comply with ADA regulations. But, if anyone should be doing all they can to make people with disabilities feel welcome and valued, it's the Church. Her mission is, after all, to spread the Good News everywhere, to everyone. What does it say about her commitment to this mission when a segment of the population are literally prevented from opening her doors and being an active part of her community?
**Update** I will be discussing this on Catholic radio this afternoon with Mike Allen. Click here to listen live at 5:15 pm Eastern.
The Vatican-hosted international interreligious colloquium on the Complementarity of Man and Women started in Rome yesterday with an address by Pope Francis. The purpose of the conference, which ends tomorrow, is to show the beauty of the complementarity of men and women, which has existed across cultures and religions.
The Holy Father began his address by dwelling on the word "complementarity". Christians, he said, "find its deepest meaning in the first Letter to the Corinthians where Saint Paul tells us that the Spirit has endowed each of us with different gifts so that-just as the human body's members work together for the good of the whole-everyone's gifts can work together for the benefit of each." Reflecting on "complementarity", he said, "is nothing less than to ponder the dynamic harmonies at the heart of all Creation."
Complementarity "is at the root of marriage and family" and "will take many forms as each man and woman brings his or her distinctive contributions to their marriage and to the formation of their children."
"In our day, marriage and the family are in crisis," Pope Francis said. The "culture of the temporary" has led many people to give up on marriage as a public commitment. "This revolution in manners and morals has often flown the flag of freedom, but in fact it has brought spiritual and material devastation to countless human beings, especially the poorest and most vulnerable."
This family crisis has also produced a "crisis of human ecology, for social environments, like natural environments, need protection." The Holy Father called on participants to, "foster a new human ecology and advance it" by first to promoting the "fundamental pillars that govern a nation: its non-material goods."
He noted that the family is the foundation of society and that "children have a right to grow up in a family with a father and a mother capable of creating a suitable environment for the child's development and emotional maturity."
Recalling what he wrote in his Apostolic Exhortation Evangelii gaudium, Pope Francis said that the contribution of marriage to society is "indispensable"; that it "transcends the feelings and momentary needs of the couple" (n. 66).
Finally, he urged participants to life up the, "permanent commitment to solidarity, fidelity, and fruitful love responds to the deepest longings of the human heart." This is especially important for young people, who represent our future. That they do not give in to the "poisonous mentality of the temporary, but rather be revolutionaries with the courage to seek true and lasting love."
This understanding of the family, he stressed, is not an ideological concept, but an "anthropological fact", a reality that transcends ideological labels.
Accompanying Pope Francis and a number of speakers from 14 religions and 23 countries is a six-part video series on men and women and marriage the world over. Below is part one "On the Meaning of Marriage" (be sure to turn on closed captioning):
A playlist for the entire series can be found here or you can just let the video above continue to play. You can also view highlights and talks from the conference on the Humanum YouTube channel.

At the National Right to Life Convention this summer I caught up with Dr. David Prentice, Senior Fellow for Life Sciences at Family Research Council, and chatted with him a bit about the current status of the great "stem cell debate", how scientists are tinkering with human life these days and what, if any, positive signs he sees for trying to stop this train at some point.
Only audio this time:
The Vatican is hosting an international interreligious colloquium on the Complementarity of Man and Women from Nov 17-19.
The Complementarity of Man and Woman: An International Colloquium is a gathering of leaders and scholars from many religions across the globe, to examine and propose anew the beauty of the relationship between the man and the woman, in order to support and reinvigorate marriage and family life for the flourishing of human society.
Witnesses will draw from the wisdom of their religious tradition and cultural experience as they attest to the power and vitality of the complementary union of man and woman. It is hoped that the colloquium be a catalyst for creative language and projects, as well as for global solidarity, in the work of strengthening the nuptial relationship, both for the good of the spouses themselves and for the good of all who depend upon them.
Each session will feature one of six short films on men and women and marriage the world over. Below is a trailer for the series:
Details about the agenda, the presenters, the films, and media credentialing can be found at the colloquium's website Humanum.
According to official figures released in recent years in the UK, over 30 embryos are created for every ONE baby born by IVF.
To help personalize those staggering numbers a bit, "Jenny Vaughn" (a pseudonym) shares her journey through IVF, which involved creating 31 tiny human beings in a lab.
The doctor had retrieved 38 good eggs, of which 31 are fertilized. Over the next week, 16 of our embryonic children die and are discarded. Thirteen are cryogenically frozen, mostly two to a vial.
These newly formed, microscopic human beings were then graded for quality and we were encouraged to discard "low-grade" embryos that had little chance of survival. But because we couldn't fully stifle our doubts about the wrongness of IVF, we insisted that all our viable embryos be preserved.
Read more as Vaughn, herself a product of IVF, explains her spiritual awakening and desperately trying to give every one of her children a chance at life…only to have just one survive to be raised by her and her husband.
It's a heartbreaking story, but an important one. Most people are clueless about IVF's incredibly high death toll. They're fed myths about the wonders of modern reproductive science, believing that they will easily become pregnant after their first IVF treatment.
I've also heard IVF advocates tout its necessity not just for the purpose of infertile people being able to have a biological child of their own, but because adoption is usually so expensive, costing anywhere from $5,000 to $40,000, and so full of red tape that it can take years to finally welcome a child into your home, if you ever do.
The reality, however, is that, like Vaughn, most women will go through multiple IVF cycles before an embryo will even attach itself in the womb, let alone survive until birth. And those babies aren't cheap — nearly $15,000 per cycle.
Hardly a bargain compared to adoption. And with "success rates" as low as 40% in women under 35 and falling from there the older women get, coming away with a child is even less of a guarantee.
Going back to Vaughn, the most interesting part of her journey to me was when she mentioned going on a post-abortion retreat as part of her healing process:
Earlier [that] year, I went on a retreat for post-abortive parents, since I felt that what I'd done to my babies through IVF was similar. I felt mixed vibes from others there, possibly because most people don't understand the complexity of IVF. But if life starts at conception, then you can have sorrow and regret for denying your children life through IVF, the same as you do with abortion.
I suddenly understood just how sacred every single person is to God. I realized how selfish my decisions had been in allowing my babies to be violently injected into my uterus after they'd endured the indignity of freezing and thawing. Yes, the violence paralleled that of abortion.The similarities were further brought home to me when I read over the IVF and cryopreservation contracts for the first time a month later. I felt brokenhearted and ashamed as I read the dehumanizing language describing that most sacred process of creating human life.
Our babies were described as "cryopreserved material," "concepti," and "orphaned specimens." Another section gave the clinic permission to take "Title" (ownership) of our embryos if we stopped the process, as if our children were commodities like cars. This consumerist mentality, combined with the emphasis on "cost effective treatment," is what makes it acceptable for IVF children to be donated for research, abandoned, discarded, and even aborted through "selective reduction" when too many embryos stay alive after transfer.
The contract also stated that, "It is rare for an embryo to not survive thawing." Half of our babies didn't survive thawing. And, "Occasionally, an embryo is not found in the vial due to the nature of embryos to stick to the vial or pipette." What incredible dangers we'd exposed our children to! Only one phrase in the entire contract spoke to the humanity of our children by calling them babies.
Being created in a lab and then frozen violates the dignity of these tiny human beings. Thawing and discarding is killing. Reducing women to incubators and men to sperm donors is also undignified. Children have a right to be the fruit of their parents' loving union, not products to be bought, sold, donated, or trashed.
I wish more pro-lifers would see this connection. Would realize that IVF is just as much a human rights tragedy as abortion is.

"For I was a stranger…and you welcomed me."
An excerpt from When Did We See You, Lord, by Bishop Robert Baker and the late Fr. Benedict Groeschel, fitting for the Fall 40 Days for Life Campaign currently underway:
Recent Issues of both Time and Newsweek seem to point to a majority of Americans finally coming around to realize that life begins at conception. Of course, this has been the teaching of the Catholic Church all along. One can only hope this is a sign that American society may be beginning to welcome the "stranger" who is the infant in the womb to the category of human personhood, acknowledging the human dignity and civil rights denied the infant in the womb by Roe v. Wade in 1973.
Roe v. Wade made the fetus out to be a predator, a threat to family happiness, another potential mouth to feed who might hamper the health and well being of other family members already there. There would simply not be enough food and clothing and square footage of housing space to accommodate one more human being. The infant in the womb, the stranger in our midst, must go.
A friend of mine…described a great success story he witnessed at a pro-life prayer vigil in front of an abortion clinic…There, he saw a pregnant woman guided away from the destruction of the infant in her womb by another woman, patiently holding a picture of a beautiful baby. Their conversation led the expectant mother to decide to investigate alternatives to abortion with the people at another clinic, a pro-life clinic.
That second woman overcame fear of the unknown with an attitude of welcome — and saved a life. May our time in prayer help us to contemplate the face of Christ int he unborn, and to see that in the unseen infant is a stranger who longs to be welcomed into our world.
God, our Father, You are the author of life and the defender and protector of the innocent and defenseless human life in the womb. Help us to welcome that most unwelcome of strangers in our American society, the innocent unborn. Because we have become so gluttonous as individuals, families and society, we have left no space or room — in our homes, our society or our lives — for this stranger in our midst. Now that we Americans have more to go around, we have less room for children in our midst. Help us, Lord, to see children as the joy of our lives…not hindrances, enemies, obstacles, or strangers.

Karuo culture
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Karuo culture (3300 to 2000 BC [1]) was a Neolithic culture in Tibet. The culture cultivated foxtail millet. The type site at Karuo was discovered in 1977 at Chamdo County, Chamdo Prefecture, Tibet and excavated from 1978 to 1979. The site covered an area of 10,000 m². Over 7,000 artifacts have been discovered at Karuo, including 1,060 stone artifacts, 1,284 pottery shards and 4,755 bone objects. It is one of only a few archeological sites on the Tibetan Plateau dating back so far, and it is in good enough condition for the foundations of houses to still be found, along with roads, walls, and stone altars in addition to the individual artifacts.[2]

^^ WiiU doesnt play BluRay, but then again, neither does 360. I think the only way I would recommend a WiiU over a 360 would be to someone who owns a PS3 but has never owned a Wii - that would make the WiiU a compelling buy *if* they enjoy Nintendo franchises. Otherwise, at this point, the price you pay to get a WiiU you could get a 360 with a slew of exceptional titles that are exclusive to 360. The XBL lineup is staggering. | |

trenken posted... squon8888 posted...My cousin asked me this and dont know what to say. So what makes the Wii U better? Better BUY. Are you going to go out an buy a 360 right now? Probably not, cuz it seems to me like you already have one. If you don't have one,The mountain of games has existed LONG before now.

CHAINMAILLEKID posted... trenken posted...squon8888 posted...My cousin asked me this and dont know what to say. So what makes the Wii U better? Price? Let me see right now I can get a Xbox 360 with skyrim, forza 4, gow 1, 2 and 3, halo 3 and odst, the witcher 2, saints row 3, dirt showdown and fallout new vegas for the same price as a Wii U Deluxe. That's a wide variety of titles and literally hundreds of hours of game time. I love my Wii U but I don't see how it could be a better deal for someone that doesn't own a 360 already. --- PSN - GwarSlave1673 GT - GwarSlave4853 Steam - Gwarslave1673 | |
Let's try to be serious: - most games can be played without occupying the TV - some local multiplayer games support up to 5 players - some games like ZombiU or Nintendo Land make more unique uses of the GamePad, like using it as a sniper scope - if he previously owned a Wii, he might not even have to buy additional controlers for local multiplayer - the system is completely backwards compatible with the Wii, so he can still play classics like Xenoblade and Mario Galaxy 1&2 - online gaming is FREE on the Wii U, if your cousin wants access to online gameplay for the next 4-5 years, the added cost will make the 360 more expensive then the Wii U - if he wants to upgrade the storage, he can use any external harddrive up to 2TB, while the 360 only accepts overpriced special HDD at bigger sizes - most multiplatform games and ports so far have significant additional contend and features - while most interesting games on the 360 are multiplatform, Nintendo's excellent first and second party games stay exclusive. --- No More Heroes | |
Yeah, the real question should be: Why would anyone buy a 360 at this point? --- Slow drivers should have their own roads to use, special roads for special drivers. Or, there should be a lane for these special people. Maybe the right lane. | |
Starwars4J posted... The Wii U has a future, the 360 is ready to be replaced. Pretty simple. that's the main reason the 360's library is infinitely better than the WiiU's right now, but WiiU is at the very beginning of its life span, while the 360 is ready to roll over --- Waiting for golden Sun 3DS 2 things are infinite: The Universe and human stupidity.

A few months ago a fellow Navy wife and her children were over for a playdate. While we sat on the patio and watched the kids play in the backyard, she and I started talking about one of the main issues military moms face...parenting solo while our husbands are away.
We military mothers find ourselves in an interesting position at times being the sole parent while still having a partner. Not quite a single parent. But not having a fully present parenting partner either. Later that evening, it occurred to me that military wives are not the only mothers who find themselves flying solo from time to time. We will all find ourselves being the sole parent at one time or another. It could be that your spouse is away for a week long conference for work. Or perhaps one person needs to fly home to help an aging parent. Or just maybe you are a mom, like me who finds herself flying solo for longer periods of time while my husband serves in the U.S. military. No matter the reason, or the length of time apart, parenting can be tough when flying solo. Read MoreJuly 15, 2010 • 26 Comments by on Parenting Relationships

12-inch MacBook Air Display Leak Teases Super-Slim Single Port Possibilities
Lose an inch, lose the ports, lose a fortune too buying one, no doubt.
Lose an inch, lose the ports, lose a fortune too buying one, no doubt.
We've already got gauzy, hyper-real renderings of this sucker. If this is what Apple is planning, count us in.
It's already entirely possible to go weeks without having to hook up your MacBook Air to anything besides the wall, much less multiple things, much less to complete tasks that require Thunderbolt-level prowess.
Everyone's been waiting years and years for a meaningful update to the MacBook line. According to a report from 9to5 Mac, this will be the year that a new design will arrive.
Although this new Elitebook Folio sure looks familiar…
Until it shows up, upgrading to a new Macbook Air is a gambler's purchase.
According a report from Re/code we won't be seeing it on Thursday. Let's just hope we see an upgrade soon.
But only in limited quantities, so get queueing now.
An edge-to-edge keyboard looks likely to feature alongside a Retina display and reversible USB.
Sitting almost completely flush with the chassis, you'll forget it's even there.
Who'd be caught dead plugging a gold iPhone into a silver MacBook?
Broadwell chips may be slowing the release of the MacBook Air successor.
Tranquility could soon arrive on your lap.

Unhinged: Good DescriptionSubmitted by Concerned BSL Resident (not verified) on Tue, 10/02/2012 - 2:12pm.
It is clear to me that three-quarters of the posted comments are from the alleged victim. The writing style in the comments is the same as her blog: convoluted and close to incomprehensible. I took a look at her blog after reading the WWAY3 article and the comments. I agree with the comment of the other BSL resident that the victim is a bit unhinged. I did not support Richard White when he ran for Mayor, but I think he has done a pretty good job while he has been in office. I doubt he is a perfect human being (none of us are), but I also doubt he did what the victim said he did. She is a convicted stalker and that alone raises serious doubts about her credibility. »

Comments about Chicago Electric Welding 3-5/8 in. x 4-3/8 in. Welding Lens Covers 5 Pc:
It's great that the 4 3/8" x 3 5/8" Replacement Outer Lenses are available from Chicago Electric but what about the 3 3/4" x 2 5/8" Inner Lenses? I change the Inner Lenses every time I change the Outer Lenses and I found that this size is not available anywhere on the market. Chicago Electric obviously makes the Inner Lenses because they provide one with the helmet but Chicago Electric and Harbor Freight Tools has dropped the ball by not offering them in a package along with the Replacement Outer Lenses.

Happy Birthday Jesus
Phuleeeaze!

The entire Winter Solstice celebration with accompanying "Tree" is shamelessly stolen from the pagans! Christians replaced the original celebration with a "make believe" character of their own :(

Murder and further persecution was added to this insult when peaceful pagan villagers were "burned at the stake" for refusing to covert.
Bah frigging humbug.
Without Christ, there would only be 'mas', and there would be nothing really to believe in. But it is because of Christ that I believe in a lot of things.

People can't help but practice what they believe in their hearts. You can always tell who is lying to themselves by whether their actions match what they say.
Because Christmas exists.
I believe in presents.

text: HP resurrects TouchPad tablet to pacify rabid customersBy Mike Isaac, WIREDUpdated 10:26 AM ET, Wed August 31, 2011The TouchPad was introduced on February 9, 2011, in San Francisco, California.Story highlightsHP has plans to produce another round of TouchPad tablets before year is outIt will be a few weeks before devices from the additional run will be available for purchaseNow selling for $100, a 16-GB TouchPad costs HP approximately $300 to buildAnd on the 61st day, the TouchPad rose again.HP has plans to produce another round of its TouchPad tablets before the year is out, despite its earlier decision to discontinue its mobile hardware products."Despite announcing an end to manufacturing webOS hardware, we have decided to produce one last run of TouchPads to meet unfulfilled demand," HP spokesman Mark Budgell wrote in a company blog post. "As we know more about how, when and where TouchPads will be available, we will communicate that here and through e-mail to those who requested notification."Budgell says it will be a few weeks before devices from the additional run will be available for purchase.The blog post signals further confusion from a company in upheaval. Two weeks ago, HP announced suddenly it would end production on all of its mobile hardware, including the soon-to-be-released Pre 3 and Veer smartphones. The decision also included the company's iPad competitor, the TouchPad, killed off a mere 49 days after its debut in July. Circulating rumors suggested third-party retailers were sitting on hundreds of thousands of unsold units.HP followed its announcement by slashing prices on remaining TouchPad inventory, reducing the price of the 16-gigabyte TouchPad to $100, and the 32-gig version to $150.Since the blowout sale prices, however, the company hasn't been able to keep any TouchPads in stock. Retailers have been bombarded by customer requests for the cheapened devices, and dozens of retailers have reported completely selling out.Which is most likely the reason behind HP's decision to once again beef up its inventory for a last TouchPad blast."Tablet computing is a segment of the market that's relevant, absolutely," HP personal systems group exec Todd Bradley told Reuters in an interview. The company continues to explore licensing options for, webOS -- its proprietary operating system -- according to Bradley.There's no guarantee, however, that HP will continue to sell the last round of tablets at a $100 rate. Hardware teardown website iSupply speculates that, in terms of components alone, a 16-GB TouchPad costs HP approximately $300 to build. That's a $200 bath HP is taking on each individual unit sold, not including the cost of labor, shipping and associated expenses.HP did not immediately respond to a phone request for comment.While the resurgence in TouchPad interest may be a promising sign for HP, the company's flip-flopping decision process isn't serving its public image."The only thing I know for sure that's going on at HP is that they have completely lost control of their message," Forrester analyst Sarah Rotman Epps said by e-mail to Wired.com. Epps continued, saying HP was "sabotaging their brand with the mixed messages."As of today, the TouchPad is now the No. 2 best-selling tablet after the iPad, according to FastCompany. Ironically, that's the exact position HP was vying for.Unfortunately for the company, it took bargain-bin pricing and the threat of extinction to get there.More from techCEO lays out Blackberry's futureIs Apple profit too dependent on the iPhone?Laser procedure can turn brown eyes bluePowered by Livefyre

Columbus North's Kaydee Akins, left, tries to squeeze a shot past Scottsburg goalie Kailee Lynn after both fell to the ground in the first period of the girls soccer sectional opening round Thursday night, Oct. 4, 2012.
Andrew Laker | The Republic
Although Columbus North came into Thursday's North Sectional opener as an overwhelming favorite, the Bull Dogs were careful not to take Scottsburg lightly.
North put up five goals in the first eight minutes and six in the first 12 to erase any thought of a letdown. The Bull Dogs went on to claim an 11-0 victory and a matchup with 13th-ranked Columbus East in Saturday's 2 p.m. final.
"I thought that we came out with good intensity for our first sectional game," said senior Ellen Hacker, who scored a pair of goals. "We were pretty confident that we were going to win, but we came out like it was going to be the hardest game of the season."
North (7-7-3) outshot the Warriors 37-3, including 24-0 in the first half.
The Bull Dogs put 20 shots on goal to Scottsburg's two.
"We had some good possessions and good play," North coach Derek Stewart said. "We're just getting ready for Saturday."
Gabby Sims scored the first goal in the fifth minute off a cross from Kenadie Carlson. Hacker then scored back-to-back goals in the sixth minute off assists from Emma Risley.
Riley Perry scored off an assist from Michelle Amlung in the seventh minute, and Amlung scored off a pass from Olivia Stewart in the eighth minute. Carlson then netted a pass from Sims in the 12th minute, soon after which Derek Stewart emptied his bench.
"He wanted to be respectful of the other team, and he didn't want to crush them into the ground, so we decided that after we lost possession, we would just reset with defense," Hacker said.
Morgan Proffitt scored off an assist from Kaydee Akins in the 19th minute, and the two reversed roles with Proffitt feeding Akins in the 27th minute. Laura Anne Watanabe added a goal in the 38th minute, and North led 9-0 at halftime.
Katie Carlson scored off an assist from Proffitt in the 45th minute, and Malissa Hofmeister added the final goal off a pass from Evelyn Malcomb in the 56th minute.
Elizabeth James played most of the first half in goal but did not face a shot. Kyra Dasovich was in the net the final 45 minutes and made two saves.
The Bull Dogs will face an East team they tied 1-1 on Aug. 25. Since then, North has seen the return of Proffitt, a Marquette recruit who missed all but the final regular-season game while recovering from a torn ACL.
"I think we're a stronger team (than before)," Derek Stewart said. "We've played some good competition along the way. We're getting everybody back. We're all pretty healthy, so we think we have a good chance to have a great game."

Ranges Around Cincinnati, OH
Hello everyone. I've been thinking about getting back into target archery and I'm wondering if anyone knows of any good ranges around the Cincinnati area?
I've done a Google search. But the only range that came up was Target World. There has to be more ranges around here...

Utrecht: small church courtyard?
I'm trying to identify a church in central Utrecht that is roughly 700 years old; is NOT especially tall or ornate; and has (or had as of the late 90s) a small inner courtyard with a simple, spare garden built around a little round pond or raised round pool. Any ideas re. which this is or where I could look for clues? I've browsed lots of google images but haven't recognized it that way.

Which cooking oil(s) will be least likely to turn rancid?
I cook with Dutch Oven sometimes. After you cook, you clean and very lightly oil the oven. Problem is, I don't use the dutch oven often so the next time I cook, the oil is rancid.
I've read that Coconut oil never goes rancid and is the best to use.
I've read that Crisco never goes rancid and is the best to use.
I've read the oil with the highest smokepoint (avocado oil) is the best to use.
I've read that the oil with the lowest oxidation index is the best to use (I have no idea which oil that is). No one seems to know.
If any one of you have advice or knowlege, I would like to hear it!

Value of antique charcoal drawings
Two charcoal drawings were left behind when both my parents recently transitioned. We are attempting to establish their value. Both appear to be very old, Dutch in nature and both feature large sailboats and people "working" on shore. Each is about 36 inches long and about 30 inches tall. The artists name appears to be Janssam or Janssau...the "end-swirl" of the last letter of the name curves up and hovers over the name, back to the first "s". I have a photo of one drawing but haven't yet figured out how to post a picture on this site. Any help or suggestion toward identifying these pictures is greatly appreciated.

NIST Smooths Out "Roughness" Debate with High Tech Lasers
Levi Beckerson

Testing sheet metals and stamping dies costs the automotive industry tons of cash, and it's all wrong, wrong, wrong
Sheet metal isn't high-tech stuff, but a lot of work goes into getting it right when it comes to things like the automotive industry. The surface of a stamped piece of metal is an indicator to the amount of stress it can handle and how, when and where it may fail. The standard method of measurement for surface profiling is being called into question for its accuracy after findings from a group of NIST researchers.
Traditionally, the measurements in question were done with an instrument called a profilometer. The simple device, similar to a phonograph needle, is drawn in a line over the surface of a material to measure the often microscopic terrain. After repeated tests, the data from the instrument is averaged to make a "roughness" measurement.
Unfortunately, as the NIST research shows, this method may be terribly inaccurate due to uncertainties and statistical errors when the measurements are extrapolated into a three-dimensional surface.
Rather than using a two-dimensional technique like the profilometer, Mark Stoudt, Joseph Hubbard and Stanley Janet of NIST use an instrument called a scanning laser confocal microscope to make a point-by-point image of a surface. The measured area from one image is roughly 1000 x 800 micrometers long and wide by 20 micrometers deep. The data from each point is then analyzed simultaneously using mathematical techniques to give a more accurate measurement than could be obtained by two-dimensional methods.
One discovery already made on aluminum alloy used in the study is that the generally accepted linear relationship between surface roughness and material deformation for the alloy is wrong. Data from the research suggests a more complicated relationship was hidden by the uncertainties of linear profilometers.
This and the rest of their findings have been published in a paper titled "Using Matrix Methods to Characterize Evolution of Deformation Induced Surface Roughness in Aluminum Sheet" in the journal

RE: Like the title
I've met several politicians, I think that general theory of them is wrong. I think they're generally smart people, have to have some degree of intelligence in order to have cut a sufficient number of throats to even get elected.
Take for example, the current "stimulus package" deal. Democrats and Republican's, united for the first time in almost a decade with the goal of giving away money that isn't theirs to the masses; much like a Roman general returning to Rome with gifts for the people so that they would honor him with a triumph; this time, they just want votes in November. I bet you, though, that both parties are aware that it's ultimate impact will be virtually nil, that no one knows how to "fix" a business cycle, and that, besides, the root of the problem is in the financial markets anyway. That doesn't stop Republican's from trying to get in business depreciation benefits in, nor Democrats from trying to sneak in extra welfare money (though Bernanke did say the business benefits have more bang-for-the-buck, dont tell the left that, they dont care -- it wont get them elected!) Similar story in Europe; politicians know how to fix Europe's economic woes (Reaganomics, Ireland-style), just, as they often say, not how to get re-elected after they do it. Both of those being economic issues, I partly blame government educations that barely teach one how to balance a check book, much less look at marcoeconomic issues, but still.
Thats what it comes back to, though, the people and elections.Therefore.. I think the electorate are the idiots, not politicians. I don't care how miserable the weather was in Michigan, anybody note how low that turnout was for the primary? The politicians are slaves to the structure that we, the people, at least the fraction of us that vote, haphazardly create for them.
That said, they're not experts in many particular fields, but then again what does a scientist working at a biotech firm know about tax policy or defense anyway. Two of the worst presidents in United States history happened to be engineers; Hoover and Carter.

What Visitors Are Saying
James and Ken, Just a quick note to thank you for an incredible day of hunting on your preserve. You guys are great coaches, and gentlemen! I was able to connect on 8 of 15 birds, which was better than I thought I would do…but I will be returning until I'm batting 1000%! Thanks again for the opportunity and for getting these birds to some families in the area that can use them. You guys are first class. See you again soon for some more golf and hunting in Anderson Creek! (from Del Mar, CA),
