O'Brien: Will see Pats commitment through
January, 7, 2012
By ESPNBoston.com
Patriots offensive coordinator Bill O'Brien was introduced today as the head coach at Penn State, confirming at his press conference that he would stay on with the Patriots through the end of the playoffs while working in his new capacity with the Nittany Lions at the same time.
"There's no way I can stand up in front of our football team and talk about loyalty and commitment and then leave the Patriots at the start of a playoff run," O'Brien said, according to reports. "I have committed to the New England Patriots to see them through this playoff run. There's not going to be a lot of sleep over the next two-to-three weeks. Any break I have, to make sure I have as much time as I can for Penn State."
O'Brien, of course, just got a little help with the offensive load in New England. The team is bringing back Josh McDaniels to be an offensive assistant for the playoffs and to take over for O'Brien as the offensive coordinator once the playoff run is done.
A few other soundbites from O'Brien, specific to the Patriots:
Saying thanks. "I can't go any further without thanking the New England Patriots organization let by Robert Kraft and Bill Belichick. They have been nothing but supportive of me during this whole process. Their friendships mean very, very much to me. Their mentorships mean very, very much to me, and I can't wait to see them again and thank them in person."
Working for Bill Belichick. "How long do you have as far as what you learn from Bill Belichick? I think the first thing you learn from Bill Belichick is to leave no stone unturned, and the one thing that I'll always take from Bill Belichick is that he allows his coaches to coach, to be creative, to come up with their own play designs and their own ways to attack defenses, their own game plans, and I will always be grateful for that. He's the most challenging guy that I've ever worked for, and I can tell you right now, I've learned so much from him, and I'm going to apply some of those things here at Penn State, and then I'm obviously going to be my own man and do some of the things I think are necessary to move Penn State forward in football, but again, I can't say enough about what I learned from him."
On working with Tom Brady. "Coaching is about the players, and so when you have the opportunity to coach a guy like Tom Brady, who makes you right quite a bit, it's just a very, very fortunate deal for me that I was able to coach him. We had a good talk the other night, and he's a special, special guy and a special friend of mine, and he always will be. And we had a unique relationship. It was like two brothers, I can tell you that. So there were times where things got heated, and most of that was probably my fault. But I'm an intense guy and he's an intense guy, and we're two competitive guys. And so that's what happens in football sometimes. It's an emotional sport. But I can't thank Tom enough and I can't wait to get going on our game plan for whomever we get to play in a week."

Well, I dropped the ride height 1/2" yesterday, and spent 10 hour dropping and logging trees for fire wood. It appears that the higher waistband of the jeans was the problem. My pants walked a about 1/4 of they used to. My bony hip must be forcing the holster around as I move.
I will make another J-clip with an extra hole in it so I don't have to move the T-nut in the leather backing (the other clip was already in the upper hole, so all I needed to do was move it to the next one.
Thank you all for you suggestions and help!

Everyone loves festive Christmas music. If you're producing a holiday-themed movie, television show or pilot, commercial or video piece, sprucing up the soundtrack with the spirit of the season is a must.
At SmartSound, we've created a comprehensive royalty free holiday music library. You'll find all your Christmas favorites as well as our own unique renditions of timeless yuletide songs. Whether you want a classic sound or a more contemporary feel, our Christmas music collections run the gamut.
How can Jingle Bells not have made it into Smartsound holiday music blog posts yet? The time has come to trot it out, so to speak, since the rollicking, easy-going version of this cheerful holiday standard from album Christmas Treasures is just the ticket for sending the upbeat urban cowboys around the line dance floor. Rockin' Holiday Royalty Free Music with a county feel…
» Read the entire Rockin' Holiday Royalty Free Music article
SmartSound Traditional Holiday music demonstrates how enduring old-fashioned holiday music can be, especially when given a jazzy new treatment.
For example, traditional Christmas carol, "O Come All Ye Faithful" was originally published in Latin - ("Adeste Fidelis') in 1743, and the words may have originated in the 13th century. This joyous Christmas staple comes in an easy rock arrangement that manages to sound modern, yet ancient at the same time—the electric guitar, sax, and drum brush come together in what sounds like an instrument you've never heard before—fluffy oboe?
From our Royalty Free Holiday Music section the album Holiday Magic features 21 tracks that capture the thrills and energy of the holiday season. A large selection of royalty free Christmas music is complemented by many other classics of the holiday season like Auld Lang Syne and Deck the Halls.
» Read the entire Royalty Free Music for the Holidays article
Traditional Christmas songs are well represented in SmartSound's Royalty Free Christmas Music, especially in album Christmas Treasures - Silent Night, with Strings and Sax, and Holiday Magic — 12 Days of Christmas. Check out the ethnic-flavored arrangement of We Three Kings, a calm, orchestral version.
For something different to back up your Christmas scenes, SmartSound brings you numerous offbeat tracks that evoke the season with fun departures from traditional. One of 21 tracks on Holiday Magic, sprightly Two More Days relentlessly chimes out the unbearable anticipation of young kids waiting for Christmas day.

Goldman's Blankfein Is Very Happy Where He Is, Thank You
NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- Goldman Sachs (GS - Get Report) CEO Lloyd Blankfein said he won't quit his job soon and that rumors of his imminent departure are false.
"I have no plans to leave," Blankfein told CNBC in an interview Wednesday, adding that he's not feeding the departure rumor mill. "You may think they get it from me, but I have no idea where they get if from."
Earlier this year, several news outlets , including Fortune, reported that Blankfein was preparing to step down from his post this summer and would be replaced by Chief Operating Officer Gary Cohn.
Blankfein said Goldman has a succession plan in place, though he didn't say if Cohn is the heir apparent.
"There is the long-term plan and there is the 'if you get hit by a bus plan,' " Blankfein told CNBC. "We have a lot of terrific executives, including Gary Cohn." Criticism of Blankfein and Goldman has increased after a number of senior executive departures over the past 18 months and spotty earnings performance that has rebounded. First-quarter net income for Goldman Sachs was $2.07 billion on revenue of $9.5 billion, slightly above analysts' estimates. Blankfein's fortunes have also rebounded. He received a 14% pay increase in 2011 -- for a total of $16.1 million -- as the bank struggled to maintain profitability in a tepid capital markets environment. The total pay consisted of a $2 million salary, $3 million bonus and stock incentives of $10.7 million, according to Securities and Exchange Commission filings. Blankfein also dismissed charges by former executive Greg Smith that Goldman often put its own interests ahead of clients, and that executives often derided clients as "muppets" who were easily manipulated. "The short answer is 'yes,' we could find no substantiation," Blankfein said.Check Out Our Best Services for Investors

After defeating Etemon, Tai and the now de-digivolved Koromon find themselves back in the real world. Even so, Tai has trouble believing that he has finally returned. They arrive in a park Tai remembers from childhood and he realizes he is in his hometown, noting the familiar landmarks. They ask a little girl if she is real or digital, but just end up making her cry. Koromon then begins attracting attention from people in the park, so they quickly leave. Tai gets excited when he realizes that he will finally be heading home. They arrive at the front door of his apartment and hesitantly go inside. Tai expects to see his parents, but soon realizes they're out of town. He raids the fridge and notices the calendar on the door. Though it has been weeks in the Digital World, in the real world it's the same day Tai left for camp. He comes to the conclusion that the time rift took them back in time (when really it is because very little time has passed in the real world during his absence).
His younger sister Kari, who somehow instantly recognizes Koromon, appears from her room and claims she's seen him before. Tai is confused by this and thinks she might be sick. He then calls the other DigiDestined to see if they are home too, but finds they are still stuck in the Digiworld. Tai makes eggs for everyone and sees a news report about freak weather patterns around the globe. He thinks he's seeing Digimon on the screen and Kari quickly assures him he is not the only one seeing them. Tai's Digivice begins acting up and Izzy's face appears on a nearby computer screen. Izzy warns Tai not to come back to the Digital World, saying he is better off where he is. Before Tai can get things straight, Izzy disappears, leaving Tai without a clue about what to do.
Time passes and Kari tells Koromon that he may never return home. Tai realizes that the Digiworld's problems are slipping through the dimensions and affecting the real world. He wants to help, but doesn't know how to return to the Digiworld. He is about to lose his temper when the ground shakes and they see Tyrannomon outside, firing at a nearby building. Tai decides to follow these mysteriously appearing Digimon in hopes of finding a dimensional rift back to the Digiworld. He sees Drimogemon, who soon fades away, and then Ogremon who Koromon tries to fight. Kari chases after Tai and they both tell Koromon he has to Digivolve. However, Koromon is unable because Tai's Digivice isn't responding. Kari and Tai's determination eventually activates the digivice, allowing Koromon to Digivolve. When he does, a rift opens in the sky. Agumon attacks Ogremon, knocking him into the rift. Agumon is sucked in next. Tai makes to follow, but Kari stops him, begging him not to leave her behind. She comes to realize that Tai has to go and holds his hand until the rift pulls him away. Little do they know, an eighth digivice is sitting in their apartment, waiting for its owner.

How to Make a Fiber Scarf
By: Lynn Koolish for C&T Publishing
Often used for machine embroidery, water-soluble stabilizer can also be used to make interesting fiber scarves in just a few hours. You can use a mix of soft and coordinating ribbons, fabric strips and yarn to make these scarves. Host a party to create these scarves and trade materials! The idea for this project comes from All About Machine Arts: Decorative Techniques from A to Z. Project from C&T Publishing.
- 2 pieces of water-soluble stabilizer in desired size of your scarf (two pieces of 6 inch wide x 6 feet long stabilizer for a scarf that size, or 12 inch wide to fold in half lengthwise)
- Fiber- Yarn, Ribbon, Fabric Strips, etc.
- Fringe- Simply left the fiber hang over the edge of the stabilizer.
- Pins
- Sewing machine
- Place 1 piece of stabilizer on the table.
- Lay the fibers the length of the scarf. You can use a lot of fibers to make a thick scarf, or use fewer fibers to make a thinner scarf. You can place the fibers in a very orderly manner, or you can just let them wander and twist.
- After all the fibers are arranged to your liking, place the other piece of stabilizer on top (or if you have a wider piece of stabilizer, you can fold it in half).
- Pin it well to keep everything in place.
- Stitching is what holds everything in place. It's best to start by stitching a grid—it's essential that the stitching cross so be sure to stitch in at least 2 directions. It's easiest to stitch the short way first, then stitch the long way. After you have a grid you can add more stitching if you like. I find it easiest to do free-motion stitching. The stitching doesn't show much, so this is a good place to practice if you are new to free-motion.
- After stitching, place the scarf in warm water and soak and/or gently rub or agitate until the stabilizer is dissolved.
- Wrap the scarf in a towel to blot, then hang it to dry.
- Wear with pride, or give it as a gift.

This stabilizer is expensive! How about using an old tissue pattern (or just tissue paper)? I made an infinity scarf with the same premise, using a hank of yard warpped around a set of table legs. It was crocheted together with a slip-stitch. Turned out wonderfully! You could use the same process with other fibers besides yarn: make a wrap or two of whatever you wanted to use. When my craft room is a bit more organized (this week), there are several rolls of tulle that may become the base of a scarf. Just lay the fibers on top, cover with tissue paper and stitch away. Can't wait to get it done!
Sounds so simple makes me almost afraid to try it!! (ha ha) If I can find the stabilizer. this would be a good way to use up partial spools of thread. I hope Pattiglover 6904950 got her question answered. I read the directions 3 times and didn't see any place to wet the stabilizer until the scarf is finished. I assume you use the stabilizer dry for this project, right? Otherwise, it would have to dry before stiching and then the stabilizer might be too fragile to handle. Please tell me if I'm wrong in my thinking.
I love this idea. Now I can use up all those cool thread/yarn scraps I have been hoarding. I did a similar scarf sometime ago made of just ribbon yarn. It only required stabilizer on the back as it lays flat and doesn't tangle in the machine's foot like yarn. Everyone is amazed that its just zigzagged together.
Not a lot of detail. Do I wet the stabilizer as I put the yarns on? And what about the peice on top is that wet to hold the yarn in place when I sew?Hoping to make this scarf asap.
Neat project. I have several skeins of 'fun fur' yarn, but not enough of any one color to do anything with. This will be my next project to use these skeins up. Thanks for the idea. Fran

Review: Free Website Blocker for Mac helps parents restrict children's access
Keep other users from visiting certain sites by blocking specific words, phrases, or complete URLs using Free Website Blocker for Mac.
Primarily used as a parental control tool, Free Website Blocker for Mac easily blocks access to specific Web sites by defining words or phrases which to block, or by simply blocking complete URLs. For those who need a basic program to block specific online content, this program performs adequately.
Free Website Blocker for Mac starts up into a basic menu that includes few buttons or available options. The first is a check box for turning the program on or off, and has no other buttons other than an apply button. Other sub-menus allow for the filter to be applied either to a specific Web address or Web pages with certain terms in them. Users can easily type the terms into the window and click the "Apply" button to initiate them. The program does not have any other options, and lacks any feature for password-protecting changes. During testing, the Web pages entered were blocked, but any person wanting to change this could easily open the program and do so. Adding a password protection option would enhance this program and make it more secure.
For blocking Web sites quickly, Free Website Blocker for Mac works well, but those with technologically savvy children would likely want to look for a more sophisticated password-protected option that isn't so easily accessed.

Grizzlies halt slide with visit to Washington as Wiz fall in 1st game minus Howard
WASHINGTON -- O.J. Mayo needed some time to get up to speed.
Playing for the second time in two nights, the Memphis Grizzlies guard had two points at halftime and no energy in his legs -- his early jump shots barely reached the front of the rim.
A dive for a loose ball in the second half turned things around. The play gave Mayo a jolt, and his fourth-quarter scoring energized Memphis in a 99-94 win against the Washington Wizards on Wednesday night.
"Sometimes Coach says when you're not feeling it, dive on the ground and try to wake yourself up," Mayo said. "From that point on, I felt pretty juiced up."
Mayo scored 17 points, 10 in the fourth quarter, to help Memphis win its third straight road game.
Before Mayo found his legs on offense, the Grizzlies' big men carried the load. Zach Randolph scored 22 points, and Rudy Gay and Marc Gasol each scored 20.
Gasol, who scored all of his 20 points in the first three quarters, made his first 10 shots and finished 10 of 11 from the field. He missed both of his free throws.
The Grizzlies were coming off a tough 99-98 loss to the Los Angeles Lakers Tuesday night and had lost nine of their previous 12 games. Pulling out a win, even against the depleted Wizards, helped Memphis regain some confidence.
"It's coming back," Randolph said. "It's not there yet. We've got to keep working, pushing it out. (Tuesday) was a big game, it hurt us. But we bounced back today and played hard against a scrappy young team."
Andray Blatche led the Wizards with 24 points. Al Thornton, making his first start for Washington, had 16 points and a season-high 11 rebounds. It was the Wizards' first game without forward Josh Howard, who was ruled out for the season because of an ACL tear just four games after joining the team in a trade.
Washington's loss ended a three-game home winning streak in front of a Verizon Center crowd of 11,875 -- the lowest of the season.
"We gave them way too many easy points," Thornton said. "We didn't make it tough on them. They got baskets at will."
The Grizzlies held a 69-68 lead when the fourth quarter started and quickly put the game out of reach. Memphis scored the first nine points of the fourth, including a 3-pointer from Mayo. Memphis took a 88-74 lead on Mayo's jumper with 6 1/2 minutes left, which essentially put the game out of reach.
"We just picked our intensity up," Gay said. "O.J. came and gave us a good lift, and he kind of pushed us to what we needed to do."
Memphis' points came exclusively inside earlier in the game. Gasol started the night by scoring 10 of the Grizzlies' first 12 points, and all 10 of the Grizzlies' first-quarter field goals came in the paint. The inside scoring led to a 13-2 run, giving Memphis a lead in the opening quarter.
The Wizards came back in the second with a 12-1 run, with all the scoring coming from Blatche and Nick Young. Washington led 48-46 at the half, and Memphis coach Lionel Hollins let his players know they needed to pick up the energy.
"Coach let us know no one feels sorry for us, having a game last night and another tonight," Mayo said.
The Grizzlies (29-28) avoided falling below the .500 mark and are hoping to get back into the playoff picture.
"It starts now," Gay said. "We can't sit around and wait. We have to load these wins up because we went through a tough patch."
Game notes
The Wizards signed F Mike Harris to a 10-day contract Wednesday. He scored two points. ... Thornton became the 14th player to start a game for the Wizards this season. ... The Grizzlies are 3-11 in the second game of back-to-backs. ... Memphis has won the last four against the Wizards, sweeping the series for the second straight season.

New Smash Bros Interviews: Professor and AttorneyA knock at the door reverberated through the air, signifying the next applicant's arrival."Come in!" called out Link.When the door opened, in walked four people. The first was a man dressed like a gentleman, complete with a top hat. Next to him stood a young boy dressed in a blue sweater and cap. The other man was dressed in a blue suit and had spiked back black hair. Next to him was a teenage girl dressed like a shrine maiden."And you are?" questioned Samus."Allow me to introduce myself. My name is Professor Hershel Layton and this is my apprentice, Luke Triton," spoke the top hat wearing man in a slight British accent."A pleasure to meet you, ma'am!" spoke the boy, also in a British accent.The other man was about to speak, but the girl beat him to it."And this is the greatest defense attorney ever, Phoenix Wright, but you can call him Nick!

New Smash Bros Interviews: MagnusA ruckus could be heard in the lobby. Link and Samus were about to go investigate, but the door suddenly slammed open and in walked a tall muscular man who didn't look too friendly. In his left hand he carried a very large sword. The two blond/es also noticed the Pit was trying to drag the man out, but failing miserably."Magnus! You can't just barge in here! You need to wait your turn!" cried Pit, still trying to drag the man back into the lobby."Keep quiet, kid! I'm not here for an interview! I'm here to challenge the swordsman!"Link raised an eyebrow. "Who? Me?""No, I'm talking about the invisible swordsman in the room," said Magnus, his voice heavy with sarcasm. "Of course you! You see any other swordsmen around here?""Why do you want to fight Link?" questioned Samus."I heard that he's very strong, so I want to see if he's as strong as they say he is.""And what makes you think y

"Hey, Zelda!"Zelda smiled back at her hero. "Hello, Link. I figured since you'd be stuck here all day that you probably haven't had lunch yet, so I brought you something to eat!"Link's eyes lit up when he saw the basket Zelda held up. "Thanks, Zelda! You're the best!"Samus rolled her eyes at the two lovebirds. "Get a room, you two."Link glared at the woman next to him, while Zelda's cheeks became red in embarrassment. That was when there was another knock at the door. Without waiting to be called in though, the door opened and in walked a tall woman with bright orange hair. The two Hylians were surprised to see the woman."Midna?! What are you doing here?!" questioned Link, very confused."Shouldn't you be back in the Twilight Realm acting as the queen?" asked Zelda,
KaitoxLen RequestKaitoxLen Fanservice.Len looked over at the bluenette on the other side of the room. Miku giggled about what Kaito said. Len felt jealously going threw his body. Len had a crush on Kaito for a long time now. Sadly Len was only a 14 year old boy and Kaito was 22... Even if he would confess to Kaito he it would be impossible for them to be together, and Kaito will never love a kid like him. Len got up. His jealously had taken him over. With slight tears in his blue eyes he left the room. Len ran to his room jumped onto his bed and quickly pulled his pillow close and closed his eyes trying to think of something else then Kaito. But how was that possible? Kaito was everywhere in his mind! He woke up with Kaito in his mind and he went to bed thinking about Kaito. Even his dreams were filled with Kaito! "Kaito..." Len said with a silent sob. "Kaito please love me..." Len said crying softly now. "I love you so bad... Please love me back..." Len said. A sudden sound made Len lift his head and

Of course, Zelda had heard it, too, but they had established that, barring circumstances, they would alternate taking care of the little boy when he cried in the night, and she had been the one to do it the night before.After sitting up and rubbing the sleep away from his eyes, Link gave his wife a look signifying that he had the situation under control (or so he hoped). Then, he pulled himself out of bed and walked over to the other side of the house, where the baby lay in a tearful heap in his crib. The hero-turned-father smiled sadly as he picked him up."What's the matter?" he asked in a quiet voice, holding his son to his shoulder and patting his back. "I
New Smash Bros Interviews: Viridi"Let go of me, Pit!""But you can't go in there!""Says who?!"Link and Samus glanced at each other as they listened to the arguing outside the door. The door soon slammed open to reveal Pit and a young blonde girl who looked to be Pit's age. She wore a red dress that had a purple rose on the front and looked to be covered in vines. Her blonde hair was tied in a ponytail also with vines and a purple rose."Sorry about this, you guys," apologized Pit, scratching the back of his head. "I tried to stop her.""Just who is she?" questioned Samus, looking unimpressed as she looked at the little girl.The girl let out a huff. "Stupid human. I am Viridi, the Goddess of Nature, and I am here to enter as a Smash Fighter!""Don't let her! She wants to hurt all of the humans!" cried Pit, only to receive a glare from the chibi goddess."Wait, what?" questioned Link. He and Samus were very confused right now."Well since Pit already said it, I want to join as a Sm
For Life - 1For LifeChapter 1The bell rang the end of another school day. It was a typical late summer day, the promise of the upcoming fall already seen by the shortening days. Teens of various ages flooded the halls of Northmont High School as the first day of school came to an end.Book bag slung over one shoulder, Link made his way carefully through the crowd until he reached one of the doors leading to the courtyard. Looking around the yard he finally spotted his friend Ike leaning against the wall, a small crowd of people around him.Ike was the stereotypical jock, excelling at pretty much any sport he put his mind through. Currently he was on the football team, recently making starting wide receiver, as he was the easily fastest runner in the school. By comparison, Link was a skinnier, more 'booky' type. His main goal was to maintain a 4.0 GPA and get a scholarship to a respected university, preferably an Ivy League school.Smiling and chucking to himself at the spectacle, Link made his w
The Boy With A NameI met a boy the other dayHe said his name was deathI laughed out loud mistakenlyHe quickly stole my breathA kiss he planted on my lipsFor everyone to seeMade me dizzy in the headAnd weak in my kneesI asked him why he did itWhile I quickly gasped for airHe said he told me soThere was obvious magic thereHis kisses were intoxicatingHis smell drew me inI always needed him by meNot every now and thenI suffered from withdrawalWithout a kiss from his sweet lipsOr a soft and gentle brushFrom his straying fingertipsI really couldn't stopEven though I tried my bestI left him for a dayIt felt like cardiac arrestNow I know what he meantWhen he claimed death as his nameEvery time he leaves meI fall victim to his pain

Technology usually changes the way we do things.
We communicate and think differently because of computers. We live differently because planes, trains and automobiles let us travel with ease. We solve hard math problems and physics mysteries because computers let us crunch numbers on a previously impossible scale. The list goes on.
However, every so often -- actually much more often than we, at first, recognize -- technology also upends the way we think about elements of our everyday lives.
As the eloquent, thought-provoking, exceptional leader Aimee Mullins explains in a presentation earlier this year at the Technology, Education and Design (or TED) conference in Long Beach, Calif., scientists designing high-end prosthetics are close to enabling wearers with "super powers."
Advances in prosthetic technology -- and art -- have both expanded the opportunities and enhanced the abilities of those who require them. These dramatic changes are flipping assumptions long-held by the rest of us upside down.
Sometimes, it's difficult to determine whether a change in our collective thinking pushed an optimistic individual or team to test previous technical limits, or whether it worked the other way around.
But in both that brief talk and our follow-up conversation, the actor, athlete and advocate Mullins propelled the conversation on exceptional performance by talking about her own experience with prosthetic legs.
While the issue is actually much larger, contemplating athletic advantage is a fine place to start.
As we learned playing tag in kindergarten, athletic prowess is not evenly distributed; we saw on day one that some kids could run faster and farther than others. Those lucky ducks were destined to be the first chosen for every team, probably throughout their entire game-playing lives. Most of us have been envious of those athletes at one time or another.
Then there was a second group, those who sat on the sidelines during gym class because of physical differences they were born with or that came about as a result of illness or mishap. We were definitely not envious of those folks.
Now let's throw technology -- in the form of advanced materials science, electrical engineering and the Internet -- at the problem. What emerges are several organizations that take prosthetics to the next level.
Standout organizations include the Reykjavik, Iceland-based Ossur, the Hampshire, U.K.-based Dorset Orthopaedic and Hugh Herr's biomechatronics lab at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology's Media Lab. To use Ossur's words, they are "in the business of improving people's mobility."
Each of these teams are researching, designing and, in the case of the companies, bringing to market advanced orthopedic replacements, more commonly known as prosthetics.
For example, Ossur's Proprio foot integrates carbon-fiber limbs with electronic sensor technology to enable users to naturally navigate changes in uneven terrain.
Dorset's teams design individualized solutions, including titanium-based prosthetics and microprocessor-enabled support mechanisms to enable lifelike movement.
Herr's research, on the other hand, integrates biology, mechanics and robotics to "advance technologies that promise to accelerate the merging of body and machine."

A new gallery specializing in "lowbrow" art has opened in the heart of the city of Fairfax.
The Artbot Gallery is located within Marlowe Ink, a tattoo shop on Fairfax's Main Street.
Lowbrow art, also known as pop surrealism, is an art movement that started in the 1970s and has ties to subcultures like hotrods, underground comics and rock music.
"It's not mainstream, it's not fine art," said Artbot Gallery curator Kari Kilcullen. Those cultural ties make the gallery a natural fit to share space with a tattoo studio, she said.
Kilcullen, who teaches at a Montessori school in Prince William County and is also the personal assistant to Marlowe Ink owner James Marlowe, said she has enjoyed art, and particularly the lowbrow style, for some time.
"I can't draw at all, so this is the next best thing," she said.
She had been thinking of opening a gallery elsewhere when Marlowe offered her the use of some space that the tattoo shop wasn't really using, and she jumped at the chance.
For its first exhibit, the gallery is featuring work by a variety of pop surrealist artists to showcase the variety of the style.
"There is a whole spectrum of art out there," Kilcullen said.
In the future, she said, the gallery will likely have shows featuring a single artist as well as themed shows. Artbot also has two house artists, Michael Brown and Liz Carroll, who will be featured prominently in the gallery, Kilcullen said.
She acquired art by contacting artists that she likes and requesting pieces for the gallery. She also got advice from a friend and mentor who runs a gallery in Los Angeles, as well as house artists Brown and Carroll, who have exhibited all over the country. "They could tell us what a gallery should and shouldn't be doing," Kilcullen said.
The gallery had its soft opening this month and Kilcullen is planning a larger opening event in January, after some additional artwork arrives. The gallery is open from 1 to 9 p.m. on Saturdays, and by appointment.

Did Public School Teacher's Firing for Presenting Religious Doctrine In Science Class Violate His Free Speech Rights?
ISSUE: Did the firing of a public school teacher for violating a school district policy that prohibits teachers from distributing extracurricular materials of a religious nature to students in the classroom or endorsing the beliefs or principles of any religion in the course of instructing students violate the teacher's right to freedom of speech and freedom of religion under the First Amendment of the U.S. Constitution?

So I got a range case the other day and heres the problem, all I have in it is my Sig 226 40s&w. Im new to rage shooting and I need to know what I should put in it besides ammo and earplugs. Any tips and suggestions like what type of ammo, earplugs and so on is much appreciated. I want this thing to be decked out so Im going on a mini shopping spree at the local gun store; Impact Guns Home(you can win a gun if you got to impacts website). Remember Im relatively new to this and I dont want to look like an idiot when I go in there.

My range bag has a bunch of crap in it like a pocket cleaning kit, little squeeze bottles of oil, tools like a pocket knife, needlenose pliers & screwdrivers, spare gun parts like springs & extra mags for what I'm shooting, some rags, and anything else I think will come in handy...
when it comes to pistol shooting, I don't really have alot in my range bag. Glasses, something to wipe the lense of the glasses with, a chamber flag as my range requires them during cease fires, even on pistols, hearing protection, a zip lock baggy for collecting brass as I reload all of my ammo, the pitol, and the ammo. That's about it. Now when I head to the rifle range, then I have alot more stuff to bring.
Oh yeah, I keep a bore snake handy and a few tools necessary to field strip the pistol. A little gun oil and a silicone cloth.
I was contemplating weather or not i should keep a cleaning kit in there. I think I'll leave it out and put more ammo in it
Ive got ammo, ear muffs, glasses, a rag to wipe the gun/parts, a rag to wipe my hands/face (it's hot in florida), a bag with some q-tips, gun oil, a pen or sharpie for marking targets, and a bore-snake if I'm shooting rifles. -Fred
"Breathe when you can, shoot when you should." -Rob LeathamΜΟΛΩΝ ΛΑΒΕ! "Qui desiderat pacem, bellum praeparat; nemo provocare ne offendere audet quem intelliget superiorem esse pugnaturem"
Don't forget targets. You can get a package of 50 paper plates and some of the small colored round stickers for a few bucks. You can also print off an assortment of .pdf targets off from your home computer, and don't forget a stapler if your range does not have one. You may also want to consider a small first aid/trauma kit. Even if your range has one, it may not be properly stocked. Don't forget your cell phone to call 911 if you or someone else needs help. Some sort of baby wipe or material to clean your hands of lead before eating or drinking. Hope that helps.
Ya might also want to add a S&W MP9 A Colt 1911 45 and a Browning Buckmark 22lr. Just a thought.
If we are going that direction in range bag additions, I think a S&W Model 29 .44 mag would be a good idea to take with you to the range.
And maybe a wheelie like a Ruger 357

Really good sound quality. Definitely worth the money! This was the first sub woofer and amp I had ever bought and it worked great. I know have 2 kicker L7's so I stepped up a few levels but for the price this package is great! I had this exact package for 2 years and gave it to my brother just this morning. Never failed on me, very easy to install and works great in a sealed box!

Queen's is currently negotiating a contract with a consulting firm that will assist the university in its development of a Climate Action Plan (CAP).
"It's very exciting to be moving forward with a plan that will help guide the university towards our sustainability goals," says Aaron Ball, Sustainability Manager. "This will be a comprehensive strategy that will involve participation from everyone in the Queen's community."
A request for proposals was issued in June 2011 to source consulting assistance for the plan's development. Six firms responded and the evaluation of the proposals proceeded throughout August and September. The evaluation team consisted of members from the Queen's Sustainability Advisory Committee, Physical Plant Services and the Sustainability Office.
The firm will work closely with the Queen's community to create a CAP that includes, among other things: a summary of the current campus greenhouse gas (GHG) inventory; GHG emission projections; academic, research and operations climate action goals; and mechanisms to track progress on goals and actions.
In February 2010, Principal Woolf signed the University and College Presidents' Climate Change Statement of Action for Canada. This pledge commits the university to engaging in several activities aimed at reducing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and enhancing research and curriculum in the areas of climate change and sustainability. It also requires developing a comprehensive CAP.
