EDAC Technologies Announces Three Long-Term Agreements Totaling $58 Million
FARMINGTON, Conn.,
March 13, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- EDAC Technologies Corporation (NASDAQ: EDAC), a diversified designer, manufacturer and servicer of precision components for aerospace and industrial applications, today announced three long-term agreements (LTAs) representing total projected sales of approximately
$58 million. The addition of these agreements has increased EDAC's backlog to a record of approximately
$310 million at
March 12, 2012, up from
$252 million at the end of fiscal 2011.
EDAC entered into a five-year agreement with Volvo Aero to produce rotating disks, compressor hubs and other components for an engine program used in Boeing aerial refueling tanker aircraft and wide body commercial aircraft, as well as another engine used in European fighter jets. Based on projected volumes, the agreement is valued at approximately $29 million through 2017.
In addition, EDAC has entered into a four-year agreement with a division of GE Aviation to provide booster cases for two engines used on aircraft such as the Boeing 747 and Airbus A330. Based on projected volumes, this agreement is valued at approximately $13 million through 2015.
The Company also said that Rolls-Royce Canada has renewed for an additional five years an agreement under which EDAC is producing rotating components for ground-based turbines used in power generation. Based on projected volumes, the extension of the agreement is valued at approximately $16 million through 2016.
EDAC expects to begin recognizing additional revenue from the ground-based turbine contract in 2012, while production ramp-up for the other two contracts is expected later this year with shipments to begin in 2013. The Company expects to deliver approximately $260 million to $280 million of its current $310 million backlog within the next three to five years. "With these LTAs, our backlog has reached a milestone, breaking through the $300 million level for the first time. Winning these contracts reflects our focus in recent years on expanding our precision manufacturing platform, developing the capacity to produce a wider range of parts, and diversifying our relationships with Prime and Tier 1 customers. We have demonstrated that EDAC is well-positioned to benefit from the strong demand in the aerospace sector, while also applying our skills to opportunities in industrial markets such as power generation. I especially want to recognize our EDAC AERO team members, who have earned the confidence of our customers through their dedication to quality and service," said Dominick A. Pagano, President and Chief Executive Officer of EDAC Technologies Corporation.

Home : Brands : MD Forte : MD Forte Renew :
If your skin is beginning to show fine lines and wrinkles, is marred by sun damage or is marked by acne blemishes, blackheads, enlarged pores or skin discoloration, you may feel like it's impossible to ever obtain the clear, youthful complexion that you're longing for again. No matter how long you've been struggling with your particular problem, you can finally reach your beauty goals with the right skin care regimen. The MD Forte Renew Products collection was specially formulated to address numerous skin care concerns, including signs of aging, age spots, melasma, pimples and congested skin.
Each of the MD Forte Renew Products contains alpha hydroxy acids, a class of ingredients that are derived from fruit and serve as chemical exfoliators in skin care products. By eliminating dead skin cells from the complexion, the MD Forte Renew Products help to lessen the appearance of wrinkles, lighten discoloration and open the pores to make them less visible and clear up acne. The Renew collection is complemented by the cleansers and moisturizers produced by MD Forte, creating a full skin care regimen.
To add one or more items to your bag, check the box to the left of each desired item and then click the "Add to Bag" button at the top or bottom of the page. Items are listed in SKU number order.
With formulas for all skin types, the MD Forte Renew Products collection offers solutions for a number of common skin care problems through a blend of ingredients centered around alpha hydroxy acids. The products are perfect for wrinkles, acne, enlarged pores and more.
MD Forte Facial Lotion I uses a glycolic compound of 15 percent strength to loosen dead skin cells from the complexion. A mild formulation, the level one lotion is ideal to use as an introduction to the benefits of alpha hydroxy acids. The lotion is geared toward those with normal, oily and combination skin types and can be applied to the skin once or twice per day.
MD Forte Facial Lotion II offers similar benefits to the level one formula, but contains 20 percent glycolic compound. The leave-on alpha hydroxy acid treatment is perfect for those who have already used the introductory lotion for 4 to 6 months and now need a stronger formula to produce results for their complexions. Like the level one formula, the level two lotion is applied to the complexion once or twice daily.
The MD Forte Facial Cream II is the medium-strength alpha hydroxy acid product in the MD Forte range that is intended for those with sensitive or dry skin. Ideal for use after 4 to 6 months of treatment with the level one facial cream, the formula contains 20 percent glycolic compound and a blend of emollients. These skin-healthy moisturizing ingredients hydrate the complexion and soothe irritation.

His name is King, and he's a gorilla with a lot of baggage. King's life has been tough ever since he left his native Cameroon at a young age -- sold to a Las Vegas stage show, where his front teeth were knocked out to keep him from biting his trainers, and then to a travelling circus. Things didn't get much easier when King came to Monkey Jungle seventeen years ago at the age of ten. Mitzi, the South Dade tourist attraction's female gorilla, couldn't stand him. After Mitzi died, he never got another gorilla to play with.
But King's human keepers are eager to make him happy. Trainer Tina Casquarelli, and primatologist Sian Evans, program coordinator at the DuMond Conservancy, a nonprofit primate behavioral research organization housed at Monkey Jungle, both spend hours with him and are constantly thinking of ways to enhance his "social stimulation." They noticed he seemed to enjoy music and were thrilled one day when "Tequila" came on the radio and King started dancing -- no doubt a carryover from his days in show biz. And Jacque Moran, a flamenco dancer who has developed a particular devotion to King through her volunteer work at Monkey Jungle, appeared to have a spellbinding effect on him when she played her castanets or sang "Getting to Know You."
Then Jesse Bering, an anthropology student at Florida Atlantic University, arrived at the DuMond Conservancy this past May for an internship. Bering was the one who thought of trying formal music therapy for the solitary silverback. "I mainly wanted to increase his activity level," says the bespectacled Bering, who wants to continue his research into the cognitive psychology of apes after he graduates next year. "I thought he needed some auditory enrichment -- it seems to be something no one has tried."
Evans, a tiny sprite of a Welshwoman who spent six years in West Africa during the Eighties conducting behavioral research with captive gorillas and chimpanzees, thought Bering's idea had promise, especially given King's performing past. But the project started slowly.
First there was the problem of finding a real music therapist. "We called the National Association of Music Therapy for referrals, and then we called music therapists," Evans recounts. "They weren't very interested. I don't think they'd ever thought of working with an ape." Finally Marcia-Lynn Faber, a board-certified registered music therapist who is clinical training director at the Claridge House Nursing Home in North Miami, answered the challenge. She comes down every Tuesday with her guitar, percussion instruments, and two interns to serenade King.
On other days King listens to recorded music. Bering's idea was to expose him to as many styles as possible, but King seemed to have definite likes and dislikes. Perhaps owing to his experience in Vegas, he couldn't tolerate Frank Sinatra. "After I put on the Sinatra song 'Young at Heart,'" Bering says, "he walked away and went to sit in a corner. Then Marvin Gaye came on -- 'I'll Be Doggone.' [King] came back for that, and he was showing lots of facial expressions. When I played opera, the Three Tenors, he was very interested, and when it got to a sad part, you could see sadness in his face. It was amazing."
So far King seems to be reacting positively to his weekly live concert, although formal scientific observations have only just begun. Evans has come to one conclusion: "He really responds to a bevy of women."
King, a handsome ape sporting a Don King-like shock of red hair, lives in a small outdoor enclosure with an air-conditioned, TV-equipped "night house" in back, a concession to gorillas' fondness for seclusion and shade. He likes to watch cartoons on TV (especially Barney & Friends). Despite these amenities, King's living conditions have been the object of unfavorable attention from the small world of gorilla keepers and breeders.
Since 1970 it has been illegal to import gorillas (an endangered species) into most countries, and in order to ensure they live and reproduce in the best possible conditions, the American Zoo and Aquarium Association (AZA) manages the gorillas now in captivity in North America as a single population. The association must approve any zoo's acquisition of a gorilla and may broker placement of single gorillas within larger social groups. Monkey Jungle lost its AZA accreditation several years ago (for reasons unrelated to animal welfare), but the AZA is urging the park's owners to send King to a bigger home, preferably one with a compatible female. The shortcomings of King's current enclosure, experts agree, are its small size and the lack of any foliage or "natural" outdoor area.

Daniel Pipes: Yes, there are moderate Islamists, he tells Commentary critic
Joshua Muravchik of the American Enterprise Institute began a debate with me on the subject of lawful Islamists in a June 2007 piece titled"Pipes v. Gershman," to which I responded on July 6, 2007 at"When Conservatives Argue about Islam." Muravchik initiated a second round in February 2008 with an article (co-authored with Charles P. Szrom),"In Search of Moderate Muslims."
Here is my reply to the latter, in the form of a letter to the editor of Commentary magazine, published in the May issue. The following version differs in many small ways from the published one; in three places, where the print version differed substantially from my original text, I added square brackets to show the contrast:
To the Editor:
As a contributor to your pages since 1979, I write unhappily to defend myself from an article in Commentary. But, to paraphrase Lord Palmerston, I suppose magazines have no eternal allies; so, reply I must to Joshua Muravchik and Charles P. Szrom's"In Search of Moderate Muslims," in the February 2008 issue.
[Print version: As a contributor to COMMENTARY since 1979, I write unhappily to defend myself from Joshua Muravchik and Charles P. Szrom's arguments against me in"In Search of Moderate Muslims."]
In policy terms, there are, broadly speaking, three kinds of Muslims. Violent Islamists, we all agree, are the enemy; in contrast, moderate, pro-Western, anti-Islamist Muslims are unarguably allies. Non-violent Islamists, however, represent the murky in-between. Policy battles royal have already taken place over them, with many more to come. Tariq Ramadan provides a useful symbol of this disagreement: excluded from the United States on account of his support for terrorism, he is employed by the British government in its"roadshow" to dissuade Muslim youth from terrorism.
Official U.S. government policy since 1992 has been to treat these non-violent Islamists (whom I prefer to call lawful Islamists) as friends. Liberals widely adopt this position, but a number of conservatives have also promoted it, including Grover Norquist of Americans for Tax Reform, Reuel Gerecht of the American Enterprise Institute, Robert Leiken of the Nixon Center, and, of course, Muravchik and Szrom.
To make their case more convincingly, these advocates whitewash lawful Islamists; [Print version: But such advocates of dialogue can succumb to whitewashing the records of the Islamists.] thus do Muravchik and Szrom dub Kamran Bokhari a"former Islamist." But a closer look reveals he is actually a"former violent Islamist" who is today a lawful Islamist. He has journeyed merely from overt to covert enmity.
Muravchik and Szrom take issue with my term"moderate Muslim," calling it"perhaps unfortunate," and equating it with people who are"not too Islamic." But that is not what I mean by"moderate." Moderate Islam is fully Islamic, though not Islamist. It implies not a lesser quantity or quality of piety but an Islam at odds with the fundamentalists, radicals, literalists, Salafists, and other assorted extremists. By analogy, moderate leftists – Social-Democrats, Labourites, even Titoites – served as U.S. allies in the Cold War. Stalinism, like Islamism, represented a novelty, or in Islamic terms, bid`a.
Joshua Muravchik.
Muravchik and Szrom also dislike my formulation that"mak[ing] a distinction between the mainstream Islamists and the fringe ones [is] like making a distinction between mainstream Nazis and fringe Nazis. They're all Nazis, they're all the enemy." Instead, they suggest that had there been Nazis"who clearly rejected violence. … Would they not have been meaningfully distinguishable from Hitler's crew?"
Such Nazis did not exist, but such communists did, so let us revert again to that analogy: Soviet and French parties differed deeply in their readiness to rely on brute force, but they shared a common goal and ultimately stood on the same side in the Cold War. To invest in lawful Islamists would be as foolish as having helped French reds seize power.
Muravchik and Szrom's gratuitous attack on the Center for Islamic Pluralism, a three-year old organization I helped put together, particularly dismayed me. Establishing the CIP required a full year of due diligence to ensure that it included only true moderates. To dismiss this small but worthy organization as"largely a one-man operation run by Stephen Schwartz, a former Trotskyist" is both offensive and inaccurate.
Indeed, Josh well knows its inaccuracy, having been critiqued by a joint letter signed by seven CIP members. He responded to it with a probing letter to 4 of the 7 co-signatories that attempted to pry them away from Schwartz. All four strongly rebuffed him, some with great verve. (The full correspondence can be found on the CIP website, at"The CIP-Muravchik File, 2007.")
[Print version: Indeed, Mr. Muravchik well knows its inaccuracy—a previous such swipe of his was subjected to criticism in a letter signed by seven CIP members. His subsequent attempt to pry them away from Schwartz was strongly rebuffed. (The full correspondence can be found on the CIP website.)]
The personal attacks on Schwartz also perturb me, so I offer two facts in his defense. His book, The Two Faces of Islam (2003) was banned in Malaysia, suggesting that he threatens Wahhabism in ways that Muravchik, Carl Gershman, the National Endowment for Democracy, and the Center for the Study of Islam and Democracy do not. Also, about the time that Josh wrote a wide-eyed account of his"Saudi sojourn" as a guest of the sheikhs, Schwartz was working with the American Jewish Committee to organize two trips of moderate Muslims to Israel.
I hope Joshua Muravchik and Commentary will re-discover their stalwart and eloquent voices of old and re-enlist in the ranks of those who are fighting today's ideological enemy. It suits neither to be aligned with the accommodating left; and their current actions damage what I still hope is our joint cause.
Yours sincerely,
Daniel Pipes
Middle East Forum
Philadelphia, Pennsylvania
Muravchik then begins the third round in his response to the above. Time availing, I will in turn answer him. (May 1, 2008)

Wim Wenders created a now-classic foreign film, Wings of Desire, several years ago in which an angel renounces his angel-ness to experience human romance with the woman he'd fallen in love with. (Wings of Desire was remade a few years later in the American film City of Angels, with Nicolas Cage and Meg Ryan.) One of the major conceits of Wings of Desire was that, when an angel, our lover saw the world — and we saw the film — in black and white and shades of gray. When he gave up his "wings" and became human, the film turns to color to reflect his now fully-realized vision.
This is bass ackwards.
Only in the mind whose treasure is set on earth are the heavenlies seen as drab and the earth seen as glorious (by comparison). Our world is glorious, of course, because the skies declare the glory of God, the mountains and trees declare his majesty, and as Calvin reminds us, every blade of grass is meant to make us rejoice. But heaven is far, far better.
Our problem, then, is probably not that this fallen world is seen too beautiful (I could argue it's not seen as beautiful enough, actually), but that we have a deficient view of heaven. It is more colorful than this world, not less. It is, as CS Lewis depicts it in The Great Divorce, thicker than our world.
Do you realize that Christ's glorified body is in the heavenly space? His is a body that is tangible, real, space-taking. It can eat food and be touched. But it can also pass through locked doors, defy matter and space. Elijah and Enoch are there, in their bodies in some real sense.
Heaven is not some thin place, some cosmic hyperbaric chamber for disembodied spirits only. It is realer, truer, grander. Lewis may have captured the best illustrative parallel of how heaven "works" with his Narnia stories. Narnia is a real place with its own time, space, matter, contents. Narnia is bigger than our world but nevertheless within our world, or at least accessible within our world. It is not outer space, it is inner space but outsized space. Bigger inside than it looks outside (to steal from Lewis again).
The staggering beauty of this realer reality is that heaven is not a holding pattern but an approaching land. Our own world is groaning for our and its redemption, and in the consummation of the kingdom at the swiftly coming return of our Lord, every nook and cranny of this world will be restored, covered with the glory of God like the waters cover the sea. The new heavens and new earth will make this place more colorful, not less. Thicker, realer, truer, better. As I wrote in Your Jesus is Too Safe, heaven's subsuming of fallen creation will be in "an eternal splash of glory the likes of which will make the aurora borealis look like a Lite Brite."
Imagine there is a fuller range of more vibrant colors than our complete spectrum. Imagine a new creation. The Himalayas, the pink of dawn, Angel Falls, the emerald hills of Ireland, the "deep magic" of England, the pearl of Sudan, the coral reefs of Australia, the secret wonders of the Chinese wilderness, the crystal beauty of the Arctic — all pale signposts to the world that is coming.
We worship a God whose wonders we will marvel at for eternity, because eternity cannot exhaust his wonders. We've got a ten-dimensional Jesus in a heaven so heavy our thin space can't conceal it much longer; it must crash into this world. Maranatha!

Mesomorphic Behavior of Symmetrical and Unsymmetrical Azomethines with Two Imine Groups
Received: 26 November 2008 / Revised: 3 February 2009 / Accepted: 5 February 2009 / Published: 6 February 2009

Abstract: Seven symmetrical azomethines with two imine groups (HC=N) were synthesized by condensation of the benzene-1,4-dicarboxaldehydewith five amines (first group: A1-A5) and of the 2,5-thiophenedicarboxaldehyde with two amines (second group: AT1-AT2). Additionally, two unsymmetrical azomethines were obtained by a two step condensation of benzene-1,4-dicarboxaldehydewith pyren-1-amine(1st step) (abbreviated hereinafter as AP1) and then AP1 was reacted with4-dodecylaniline or 4-hexadecylaniline (2nd step) (third group: AP1A-AP1B). Liquid crystalline properties of the azomethines were studied by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), polarizing optical microscopy (POM) and UV-vis spectroscopy in the function of temperature [UV-vis(T)]. The Wide-Angle X-ray Diffraction (WAXD) technique was used to probe the structural properties of the azomethines. Mesomorphic behavior was observed for symmetrical and unsymmetrical azomethines, obtained from the benzene-1,4-dicarboxaldehyde and symmetrical ones prepared from 2,5-thiophenedicarboxaldehyde and different amineshaving aliphatic chains. Based on the POM and DSC measurements the following mesophases were detected: nematic, smectic A, smectic C, smectic F (I), smectic G (J).

About 13,500 feet above the ground, among the snow-capped peaks of Mount Bierstadt in Colorado, Scott Washburn and his wife, Amanda, found an abandoned, dying German shepherd dog.
Washburn and his wife this past Saturday, Aug. 11, were on a leisurely hike up Mount Bierstadt in Clear Creek County, a 14,000-foot peak near Denver that is categorized as a "14er" because, as Washburn said, "the peak is over 14,000 feet high and considered a Class 3, meaning it is not the most difficult – but it's too difficult for a dog to be on it or an inexperienced person.
"We were hiking to this ridge and we got off course and I was a little ahead of my wife," he said. "She called out to me and said, 'Hey I found a dog,' and figured I misheard her 'cause there was no way a dog was where we were."
Washburn and his wife were incredulous at how this dog, tucked into a tiny nook between rocks, could have ended up where it was. The whimpering dog was, as Washburn said, "in awful shape." He was convinced it would have died if left without food or water for much longer. The couple tried to coax the dog up out of the rocks and down the mountain but it was clear the dog was too injured and weak to move.
"We knew we weren't going to be able to get her out by herself," said Washburn. "Her paws were completely raw and her elbows were torn up."
The dog weighed more than 100 pounds and was too heavy to carry down the mountain, so the Washburns used their first aid kit to try to patch up as many of the dog's wounds as they could. They then left the dog, with water, on a leveled boulder in hopes of being able to find it when they returned with help.
Farther down the mountain, the Washburns ran into a Forest Service ranger who expressed sadness and regret that he could not offer any help on behalf of the forest rangers.
"My wife broke down crying at the thought of leaving the dog to die," said Washburn.
So the two called everyone they could think of. They started a Facebook page and posted a plea for help on a hikers' forum website called 14ers. Reactions and volunteers began to pour in, as well as an overwhelming amount of posts from the online community infuriated by the apparent abandonment of the dog for dead on the cold cliffs.
The discussion grew so heated that it was locked by the site administrator to prevent further comments on Wednesday "until things simmer down," according to local ABC News affiliate, ABC 7 News, The Denver Channel.
Washburn got together a group of eight volunteers and the group headed back up the mountain that Monday morning. The group found the dog with all of its wounds Washburn had tried to bandage reopened. The rocks around the dog were covered in blood, and the dog was back cowering beneath the surrounding rocks.
The group of eight hikers traveled through a full-blown snowstorm that broke out during their hike. Eventually, after a nine-hour rescue mission, the group successfully managed to bring back the broken and bruised dog in a hiker's oversized backpack.
Upon their return, the hikers entrusted the dog to a local vet, who told Washburn that it was "the miracle dog of the century, and although she was severely dehydrated she has, miraculously, no long-term or permanent damage."
Soon, the rescuers learned the dog's name is Missy and her owner is 29-year-old Anthony Ortolani.
Ortolani told The Denver Channel that he was forced to leave his pet on the mountain Aug. 5, when a storm moved in and he became worried for the safety of a younger hiker who was with him. He said his dog's feet were cut up from walking on sharp rocks and it could no longer walk.
"I just don't think that his actions have shown that he is a responsible dog owner," Washburn said. "We understand that he had to leave her there. My wife and I did the same thing. But we ended up going back for her, and we went to some pretty extreme lengths to do so. In my opinion, that is not a responsible dog owner, who doesn't really care about her."
Washburn and his wife, as well as other members of the rescue team, would now like to adopt Missy, Washburn said. But Ortolani is asking for his dog back.
Missy remains at the veterinarian's office until she completely recovers. After that, she will be handed over to animal control officials at the Clear Creek County Sheriff's Office.
Clear Creek County Sheriff's Sgt. Rick Safe said the issue is under investigation to determine whether Ortolani is guilty of cruelty to an animal.
"The dog was basically abandoned up there," Safe said. "He [Ortolani] made no initial attempt. After three days, he thought the dog was deceased so he made no attempts to reclaim the dog."
The sheriff's department also has a rescue team, and other hikers told them about Missy being stranded on Mount Bierstadt during the weekend. However, the rescue team was unable to respond because it is solely reserved for human rescues.
"We can't specifically send a rescue effort for a dog," Safe said. "We have a designated rescue team. In the last two weeks we have had six rescues, one a day on the weekends, for people. It is tough terrain out there."
For now, Missy is on the road to recovery and an animal control officer from Clear Creek County will pursue the investigation by interviewing Ortolani.
ABC News' efforts to reach Ortolani were unsuccessful.

Would You Want to Know if You Were Going to Get Alzheimer's?
Right now there's no reliable test you can take to predict whether or not you'll develop Alzheimer's. But if such a test did exist, would you even want to take it? Two-thirds of people surveyed say yes, they would—even if they were perfectly healthy and didn't have any symptoms, according to research presented at the Alzheimer's Association International Conference in Paris last week. I'm not entirely sure I agree.
In theory, a predictive test sounds intriguing. The more information, the better, right? But what would you do with that info? If you already have Alzheimer's symptoms, there are drugs that can help a little. But at the moment, there isn't anything you can take to stave off the disease or even slow its progression (although scientists are certainly working on it). So what would be the point of knowing? Would I just sit around every day waiting and worrying, but not being able to do anything about it? That sounds kind of pointless.
That said, research aimed at developing drugs to prevent Alzheimer's and researched aimed at developing early detection tests goes hand in hand. So I certainly support work in both areas. But until those drugs exist, I personally wouldn't want to get such definitive (potentially bad) news about my future. Would you?

Taylor got onto the main draw with junior exemption because she was the top ranked junior last year. This should not be considered "back door" because she earned it. A big difference between juniors and pros is that pros are so good running down shots that could have been winners in a junior match. Taylor lost many points when she dictated a rally - she hit 7-8 really good shots and Sachia kept running them down; then Taylor could miss the next ball. Taylor also lost her first round of doubles. She was an even more dominant doubles player in juniors. There was a recent video showing her workout and she said that she lost 8 lbs in 4 weeks. Nice to see that she has started to work on her fitness. Yes, she is highly talented and sweet. With improved fitness and confidence, she will be a top 50 player in a couple of years.

Kongzhong Obtains Exclusive PC And Mobile Game Adaptation Rights For The Famous Mainland China Produced "KuiBa" Animated Film Series Of Works
BEIJING, Sept. 10, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Kongzhong Corporation (NASDAQ:KONG), a leading provider of digital entertainment services for consumers in the PRC, announced today its strategic partnership with Vasoon Animation Co., Ltd., a leading Chinese animation production Company, by obtaining the mobile and PC game adaptation rights for the 5 "KuiBa" animated series of movies as well as the global exclusive publishing rights for those games. These rights include the already produced Kuiba films, Kuiba 1 and Kuiba 2 as well as the yet-to-be produced other 3 animated films. The Kuiba universe, which brings together anime, video and novels, is already a well-known domestic Chinese brand. By collaborating more closely between Vasoon's strengths in traditional media and KongZhong's strengths in interactive media and games, the partnership is expected to create newly realized synergies in the marketing and distribution of the Kuiba universe to Chinese and global audiences.
Domestic Animation Milestone --- "KUIBA"
Under development for the past ten years by Vasoon Animation Co., Ltd., the teenager-oriented "KUIBA" universe contains two already produced theatrical films and three theatrical films that are still under development. Set in an Eastern Fantasy setting and directed by the famous Chinese director, Wang Chuang, the Kuiba universe is a fully immersive world with a film script that spans across a series that took over 2 years to write and contains over 1.0 mn words of text. The first two produced films have already garnered a significant fan base and brand in the mainland China market, representing a key milestone in the overall development of the Chinese animation industry for domestically produced animation film properties.
Immersive World Supports Strong Material for Online Games
The Kuiba movie series has already attracted a significant number of fans in China and abroad, not only for the production quality of the series animations, but also for the immersive and fantastical Kuiba universe setting that the series is based upon. This provides ample source material for a game developer to create a truly interactive and engaging experience for Kuiba fans. At the same time, with a rich set of characters, animated environments and art styles to base the games upon, existing and future Kuiba fans will be able to experience the Kuiba universe first-hand as if they were in the movies themselves. Vasoon Animation's CEO Mr. Wu Hanqing said, "As a leader in China's animation industry with a long-standing vision to create a world class innovative animation Company, we believe that our cross-industry partnership with KongZhong will create even more immersive and memorable experiences for Kuiba fans. We believe that through KongZhong's strengths in game development and operations, existing and future fans of Kuiba will be able experience another level of interaction with the Kuiba universe and we look forward to playing Kuiba games in the future!" Cross-Industry Distribution Relationship Although there have been numerous theatrical film to PC and mobile game adaptations in the China market, few cross-industry partnerships will seek to leverage the depth of collaboration envisioned between Vasson and KongZhong for the Kuiba universe. Through this partnership, the parties expect to leverage both traditional media and interactive media distribution platforms to market and distribute each other's properties over the lifetime of the Kuiba series. KongZhong's Chairman and CEO, Mr. Lei Lei Wang said, "The Kuiba universe possesses a rich set of stories, races and characters to create a powerful interactive world upon. In the future, we expect to develop games adapted to the Kuiba universe which will attract and delight fans of anime and by partnering with one of the most innovative producers of Chinese anime, will raise KongZhong's brand across traditional and game industry audiences." About Vasoon Animation Founded in 1992, Vasoon Animation Co., Ltd., is one of the most established private animation enterprises in mainland China, with a focus on the production of original animation content. In its history, it has invested in and produced over 3,000 works of animation, obtaining many industry rewards both at home and abroad. About Kongzhong Kongzhong (NASDAQ:KONG), listed in Nasdaq in 2004, is one of the leading providers of digital entertainment services for consumers in the PRC. We operate three main business units, namely WVAS, mobile games and Internet games. Within Internet games, KONG has the exclusive publishing rights for World of Tanks, World of Warplanes, World of Warships, Guild Wars 2 and other titles in mainland China.

Quick question about the slide safety on the Ruger lc9...
According to the manual, this gun may still discharge if dropped with a round in the chamber. Although this doesn't make much sense and may only be CYA in the manual, I'm curious if enabling the slide safety would prevent this?
This weapon is a double action automatic, but the process of chambering a round also half-cocks the hammer, so I could imagine a scenario where it's dropped and the hammer releases. Would that be enough to trigger a ND even at half cocked? This weapon does not have a decocker.
The safety prevents the slide from moving and prevents the trigger from being pulled... I'm curious if anyone knows enough about the mechanics of it to say if it also prevents the hammer from dropping?
Thanks in advance.

What exactly is a "cowboy" load? I was shopping for some inexpensive range ammo for my GP100 and almost picked up a pack of "cowboy load" 38 spl but put them back in favor of 38 spl wadcuters for $1 more. I figure they'd work no matter what, but I'm just curious what it means.

Cowboy loads tend to usually be flat nose, round nose, or round nose flat point shaped lead bullets (I'm not 100% sure if I'm right).
"It's a gun you loaded on Sunday, and shot all week." -Confederate Soldier "If God didn't create man equal then Sam Colt had made them equal." -Unknown "Fast is fine, but accuracy is everything." -Wyatt Earp
Cowboy loads are much more lightly charged than regular loads.
I was just a tad off .
Used in a competive shooting sport known as Cowboy Action Shooting. Unjacketed lead bullets, lightly loaded. Or for shooting cowboys- I can't remember which...............

Cow Boy loads are loaded light not just to protect the weapon (Does a Ruger Vaquero really need protecting) but also to make practice and competition more pleasant and to protect the targets. I do not shoot SASS myself but I have read the rules and both carbines and six guns are limited to under a thousand feet per second un-jacketed loads.

"Goin' downtown to the disco, gotta do it right away. Got a funky thing to get into, gonna blow my blues away!"
I'm about to bottle my Supplication clone this weekend. I can't believe it's been 18 months since I started this project. From the one sample that I've drawn, it tastes great. Great vinous complexity. Will have to do a side by side taste test this fall sometime, after the bottles have had some time to mellow. Also, I'm corking and caging the bottles to mimic the real thing. Once I get everything bottled I'll start another thread and detail my process and technique if anyone wants to try their own hand at this. Fun project overall. I get a kick out of showing my non-beer drinking friends the awesomely disgusting pellicle this thing has formed. Next up: Consecration kit from MoreBeer. BK
Thanks so much, I appreciate. Set to brew a Consecration Clone tomorrow, I suppose this will go next in line.
Update on my Supplication clone originally brewed 6/18/2011. It's tasting pretty fantastic. At this point it is over a year old. Today I pulled a sample as well as adding 4 pounds of fresh organic Washington Bing Cherries. Below are my notes: 6/18/2011 – OG was 1.084 before adding water. Collected 4 gallons and then added 1 gallon spring water to equal 5 gallons. The vial of Belgian Sour Mix 1 leaked during transit and was only half full. Went to the store and got another one and another Abbey Aleyeast b/c I forgot to make a starter. Pitched it all along with dregs from 2 bottles of RR Supplication. OG was 1.064 after water was added. 7/3/2011 – Had a huge fermentation then settled after about a week. Set the carboy in water to keep the temps down. Moved out of the water an on to the basement floor. Fermentation seems done, temps are around 68F. It has some nasty bubbles appearing on top. Good signs of an infection. 10/2/11 – Flushed a keg with CO2 3 times to purge O2 and transfered supplication clone. Then purged 3 more times to clear the head space. The gravity reading was 1.013. Reddish-brown in color. Sour aroma with some cherries and red-wine characteristics. A very tiny bit of the brown ale aroma comes through. Doesn't taste like a brown for sure. Tart, light brown ale flavors and cherry. Not as sour as the aroma would lead you to believe. Some red wine characteristics. Interested to see how another year will effect his beer. The sour cherries would add a nice character to it. 1/30/2012 – Transferred the beer from the keg to a 6 gallon better bottle. Gravity reading was 1.012. A little bit or sourness and cherry in the nose even though cherries haven't been added! A hint of the brown ale base beer. Very sour with some lactic-ness. This could be very very good. Sour cherries might make it too sour? Dark brown in color with a light-medium amount of light coming through. Taste is more sour than the aroma. Pretty dry and thin (in a good way). Come summer I will ad 3-5 lbs of fresh sour cherries for 3 months minimum. 7/7/12 - Added 4 Pounds of Washington Bing cherries. Gravity reading was 1.010. The taste is very simalr to 1/30/2012. A little bit of the base brown ale in the nose along with cherries and sourness (despite no cherries being in the beer). Not a hint of the base beer in the taste. Very sour, cherries, lactic, tart. Very dry. I'm hoping w/ the cherries and carbonation it will make a fantastic sour beer. It's certainly coming along much better than expected. Very excited. Will let it sit on the cherries until October (~ 3 months), then bottle with Rockpile wine yeast. I should note that I had the real version on draft today and it tastes very close to my version. I think I might skip the Pinot and oak chips.
1.010 after adding the cherries or before?
Primary: nothing :( Secondary: nothing :( Long Aging: Flanders Red (to be bottled this summer)

We start with one of the most well documented projects on Houzz — the Quaker Bluff Residence in Vermont — and a backlit stone wall. The effect is certainly dramatic, but it is not something that can pulled off with any stone. For light to transmit through some stones — marble, for example — the material has to be cut so thin it loses its capacity to support itself. Onyx, on the other hand, is ideal for such an application, yielding its unique yellow-orange glow.
A detail of polished stone is shown for a house in Hawaii. Think concrete, and something as colorful as this probably doesn't come to mind. Pigment can be added to the concrete mixture and used as a way to express the local context by mining the pigment in the area.
Moving on to one of my favorite materials, Cor-Ten Steel, this close-up does a great job of showing the variation in color found in the material. A sandpaper-like texture can be gleaned from this photo, a sign of the oxidation that adds the coat of rust to the steel.
This photo shows the meeting of this house on the land, in particular the three materials that make up this condition: the wall, the foundation, the ground. In this case we have wood panels, poured concrete and gravel. That the architect documented this detail means they considered this to be an important area, something they treated with simplicity and care.
Here we see three planes in a layered composition. Horizontal striations with random voids create a rhythmic and borderline chaotic effect. Nevertheless, the close-up reveals the craftsmanship to be quite high.
The textured "pillows" of this limestone backsplash leads to both interesting shadows and a visual softening of a hard material.
A threshold between a living space and master suite is articulated here with "patinated aluminum shelves with a perforated spiderweb pattern." Each horizontal piece can be flipped to vary the pattern and the light entering the space. It's a custom installation that stands out from the minimal finishes it is layered upon.
A fair number of the details in this ideabook are the product of NYC-based Workshop/apd, including this grille. The closely-spaced black rods allow light to pass through while obscuring one's view. In another project by the same architects ...
... horizontal bars are used in a lobby renovation to spell out the building's address. The rectangular pieces are notched to create the "58." When the sun hits this elevation, light more readily moves through the notches to spell out the address on the lobby walls.
One last project by Workshop/apd shows the coming together of three quite different materials: round glass tiles, what looks to be terrazzo, and wood slats. These materials comprise the walls and floor of a shower.
Material considerations certainly extend outside. Squint at this pavement in a sideyard and one half is white and one half is black. But the white aggregate is found in both, uniting the two.
The coming together of different materials may not be as jarring outside as it can be inside, as is seen here with pavers, pebbles and plantings. The simple edging that holds the pebbles and separates them from the mulch is a very nice minimal detail. See more of this garden
