[0001] The present application claims priority from U.S. Provisional application 60/418,392 filed on Oct. 15, 2002 and entitled �Method and Architecture for Consolidated Database Search for Input Recognition Systems.�
[0002] The present invention relates to methods and systems for defining and handling user/computer interactions. In particular, the present invention relates to systems that allow for grammar-based recognition of user inputs.
[0003] For many years, there has been a great deal of interest in expanding the types of inputs that computing devices can accept and interpret. Examples of these inputs include speech, gestures, handwriting, and natural language. Each of these input types have proven to be difficult to implement because of variations in the way people speak, write, and gesture. Because of these variations, there is always some ambiguity as to what the user was actually trying to communicate.
[0004] To determine the meaning of an ambiguous input, it is common to apply the input to one or more models that predict the likelihood of various possible meanings given the input. To reduce the amount of searching that must be performed when using these models, the number of possible meanings that can be represented by the input is limited to a selected grammar. For example, in speech and handwriting recognition, the grammar is a set of allowable word sequences.
[0005] The models used to decode such ambiguous inputs often require a large amount of run-time memory and a computing-device with a high-speed processor. As a result, the adoption of such inputs in many computer applications has been limited. Thus, a system is needed that allows for broader adoption of grammar-based recognition while at the same time limiting the amount of computing resources needed to interact with the user.
[0006] A method and system are provided for recognizing user input. In the method, user input is applied to at least one model to identify at least one decoded value found in a grammar. The decoded value and at least one database value stored in the grammar are then returned. The database value corresponds to a database value found in a database that is separate from the grammar. Under one embodiment, the database is associated with an application that accesses database values in the database. Under a further embodiment, two database values are returned with the decoded value where one of the database values corresponds to a database value in a first database and the other database value corresponds to a database value in a second database.

[0009]FIG. 3 is a block diagram of a computing architecture under one embodiment of the present invention.
[0010]FIG. 4 is an example of a portion of a grammar under one embodiment of the present invention.
[0011]FIG. 5 is a flow diagram for a method under one embodiment of the present invention.
[0012] The present invention provides a distributed computing system in which a user agent acts as an interface for an application that runs as a separate computing process. In the distributed system, the user agent is able to communicate with a recognition process that is separate from the application to obtain recognition services for user inputs that need to be decoded.
[0013] One aspect of the present invention is that the grammar used by the recognition process includes database entries associated with one or more applications. As a result, when the values represented by the input are decoded, the database entries associated with those values are returned to the user agent. This reduces the amount of communication traffic between the user agent and the application because the user agent does not have to relay the decoded input values to the application in order to access the database values associated with the input. Instead, the user agent receives the database values directly from the recognition process.
[0014]FIG. 1 illustrates an example of a suitable computing system environment 100 on which the user agent of the distributed computing system of the present invention may be implemented. The computing system environment 100 is only one example of a suitable computing environment and is not intended to suggest any limitation as to the scope of use or functionality of the invention. Neither should the computing environment 100 be interpreted as having any dependency or requirement relating to any one or combination of components illustrated in the exemplary operating environment 100.
[0015] The invention is operational with numerous other general purpose or special purpose computing system environments or configurations. Examples of well-known computing systems, environments, and/or configurations that may be suitable for use with the invention include, but are not limited to, personal computers, server computers, hand-held or laptop devices, multiprocessor systems, microprocessor-based systems, set top boxes, programmable consumer electronics, network PCs, minicomputers, mainframe computers, telephony systems, distributed computing environments that include any of the above systems or devices, and the like.
[0016] The invention may be described in the general context of computer-executable instructions, such as program modules, being executed by a computer. Generally, program modules include routines, programs, objects, components, data structures, etc. that perform particular tasks or implement particular abstract data types. The invention may also be practiced in distributed computing environments where tasks are performed by remote processing devices that are linked through a communications network. In a distributed computing environment, program modules may be located in both local and remote computer storage media including memory storage devices.
[0017] With reference to FIG. 1, an exemplary system for implementing the invention includes a general-purpose computing device in the form of a computer 110. Components of computer 110 may include, but are not limited to, a processing unit 120, a system memory 130, and a system bus 121 that couples various system components including the system memory to the processing unit 120. The system bus 121 may be any of several types of bus structures including a memory bus or memory controller, a peripheral bus, and a local bus using any of a variety of bus architectures. By way of example, and not limitation, such architectures include Industry Standard Architecture (ISA) bus, Micro Channel Architecture (MCA) bus, Enhanced ISA (EISA) bus, Video Electronics Standards Association (VESA) local bus, and Peripheral Component Interconnect (PCI) bus also known as Mezzanine bus.
[0018] Computer 110 typically includes a variety of computer readable media. Computer readable media can be any available media that can be accessed by computer 110 and includes both volatile and nonvolatile media, removable and non-removable media. By way of example, and not limitation, computer readable media may comprise computer storage media and communication media. Computer storage media includes both volatile and nonvolatile, removable and non-removable media implemented in any method or technology for storage of information such as computer readable instructions, data structures, program modules or other data. Computer storage media includes, but is not limited to, RAM, ROM, EEPROM, flash memory or other memory technology, CD-ROM, digital versatile disks (DVD) or other optical disk storage, magnetic cassettes, magnetic tape, magnetic disk storage or other magnetic storage devices, or any other medium which can be used to store the desired information and which can be accessed by computer 110. Communication media typically embodies computer readable instructions, data structures, program modules or other data in a modulated data signal such as a carrier wave or other transport mechanism and includes any information delivery media. The term �modulated data signal� means a signal that has one or more of its characteristics set or changed in such a manner as to encode information in the signal. By way of example, and not limitation, communication media includes wired media such as a wired network or direct-wired connection, and wireless media such as acoustic, RF, infrared and other wireless media. Combinations of any of the above should also be included within the scope of computer readable media.
[0019] The system memory 130 includes computer storage media in the form of volatile and/or nonvolatile memory such as read only memory (ROM) 131 and random access memory (RAM) 132. A basic input/output system 133 (BIOS), containing the basic routines that help to transfer information between elements within computer 110, such as during start-up, is typically stored in ROM 131. RAM 132 typically contains data and/or program modules that are immediately accessible to and/or presently being operated on by processing unit 120. By way of example, and not limitation, FIG. 1 illustrates operating system 134, application programs 135, other program modules 136, and program data 137.
[0020] The computer 110 may also include other removable/non-removable volatile/nonvolatile computer storage media. By way of example only, FIG. 1 illustrates a hard disk drive 141 that reads from or writes to non-removable, nonvolatile magnetic media, a magnetic disk drive 151 that reads from or writes to a removable, nonvolatile magnetic disk 152, and an optical disk drive 155 that reads from or writes to a removable, nonvolatile optical disk 156 such as a CD ROM or other optical media. Other removable/non-removable, volatile/nonvolatile computer storage media that can be used in the exemplary operating environment include, but are not limited to, magnetic tape cassettes, flash memory cards, digital versatile disks, digital video tape, solid state RAM, solid state ROM, and the like. The hard disk drive 141 is typically connected to the system bus 121 through a non-removable memory interface such as interface 140, and magnetic disk drive 151 and optical disk drive 155 are typically connected to the system bus 121 by a removable memory interface, such as interface 150.
[0021] The drives and their associated computer storage media discussed above and illustrated in FIG. 1, provide storage of computer readable instructions, data structures, program modules and other data for the computer 110. In FIG. 1, for example, hard disk drive 141 is illustrated as storing operating system 144, application programs 145, other program modules 146, and program data 147. Note that these components can either be the same as or different from operating system 134, application programs 135, other program modules 136, and program data 137. Operating system 144, application programs 145, other program modules 146, and program data 147 are given different numbers here to illustrate that, at a minimum, they are different copies.
[0022] A user may enter commands and information into the computer 110 through input devices such as a keyboard 162, a microphone 163, and a pointing device 161, such as a mouse, trackball or touch pad. Other input devices (not shown) may include a joystick, game pad, satellite dish, scanner, camera or the like. These and other input devices are often connected to the processing unit 120 through a user input interface 160 that is coupled to the system bus, but may be connected by other interface and bus structures, such as a parallel port, game port or a universal serial bus (USB). A monitor 191 or other type of display device is also connected to the system bus 121 via an interface, such as a video interface 190. In addition to the monitor, computers may also include other peripheral output devices such as speakers 197 and printer 196, which may be connected through an output peripheral interface 190.
[0023] The computer 110 may operate in a networked environment using logical connections to one or more remote computers, such as a remote computer 180. The remote computer 180 may be a personal computer, a hand-held device, a server, a router, a network PC, a peer device or other common network node, and typically includes many or all of the elements described above relative to the computer 110. The logical connections depicted in FIG. 1 include a local area network (LAN) 171 and a wide area network (WAN) 173, but may also include other networks. Such networking environments are commonplace in offices, enterprise-wide computer networks, intranets and the Internet.
[0024] When used in a LAN networking environment, the computer 110 is connected to the LAN 171 through a network interface or adapter 170. When used in a WAN networking environment, the computer 110 typically includes a modem 172 or other means for establishing communications over the WAN 173, such as the Internet. The modem 172, which may be internal or external, may be connected to the system bus 121 via the user input interface 160, or other appropriate mechanism. In a networked environment, program modules depicted relative to the computer 110, or portions thereof, may be stored in the remote memory storage device. By way of example, and not limitation, FIG. 1 illustrates remote application programs 185 as residing on remote computer 180. It will be appreciated that the network connections shown are exemplary and other means of establishing a communications link between the computers may be used.
[0025]FIG. 2 is a block diagram of a mobile device 200, which is an alternative exemplary computing environment on which the user agent may reside. Mobile device 200 includes a microprocessor 202, memory 204, input/output (I/O) components 206, and a communication interface 208 for communicating with remote computers or other mobile devices. In one embodiment, the afore-mentioned components are coupled for communication with one another over a suitable bus 210.
[0026] Memory 204 is implemented as non-volatile electronic memory such as random access memory (RAM) with a battery back-up module (not shown) such that information stored in memory 204 is not lost when the general power to mobile device 200 is shut down. A portion of memory 204 is preferably allocated as addressable memory for program execution, while another portion of memory 204 is preferably used for storage, such as to simulate storage on a disk drive.
[0027] Memory 204 includes an operating system 212, application programs 214 as well as an object store 216. During operation, operating system 212 is preferably executed by processor 202 from memory 204. Operating system 212, in one preferred embodiment, is a WINDOWS� CE brand operating system commercially available from Microsoft Corporation. Operating system 212 is preferably designed for mobile devices, and implements database features that can be utilized by applications 214 through a set of exposed application programming interfaces and methods. The objects in object store 216 are maintained by applications 214 and operating system 212, at least partially in response to calls to the exposed application programming interfaces and methods.
[0028] Communication interface 208 represents numerous devices and technologies that allow mobile device 200 to send and receive information. The devices include wired and wireless modems, satellite receivers and broadcast tuners to name a few. Mobile device 200 can also be directly connected to a computer to exchange data therewith. In such cases, communication interface 208 can be an infrared transceiver or a serial or parallel communication connection, all of which are capable of transmitting streaming information. Through communication interface 208, mobile device 200 may be connected to a remote server, personal computer, or network node. Under the present invention, mobile device 200 is capable of transmitting speech data from the mobile device to a remote computer where it can be decoded to identify a sequence of words.
[0029] Input/output components 206 include a variety of input devices such as a touch-sensitive screen, buttons, rollers, and a microphone as well as a variety of output devices including an audio generator, a vibrating device, and a display. The devices listed above are by way of example and need not all be present on mobile device 200. In addition, other input/output devices may be attached to or found with mobile device 200 within the scope of the present invention.
[0030]FIG. 3 provides a block diagram of a distributed computing environment 300 under one embodiment of the present invention in which the user agents of FIGS. 1 and 2 appear as user agent 302. User agent 302 is provided with executable instructions by application 310. These instructions typically take the form of script code or embedded code found in mark-up pages such as XML and HTML pages. User agent 302 executes this code to provide an interface to the user. In FIG. 3, application 310 is shown as being connected to user agent 302 through a network 312, which can be a wide-area network, such as the Internet, or a local area network. In other embodiments, application 310 is located on the same computing device as user agent 302. In such embodiments, application 310 is executed as a separate process from user agent 302.
[0031] Based on the code it receives from application 310, user agent 302 communicates with a user 304 through one or more input interfaces 306, which can include video capture, microphones, keyboard, touch screens and/or pointing devices. For each input modality that requires interpretation such as handwriting, speech, and gestures, user agent 302 passes the collected input to a recognition process 308. Input modalities may have their own or share a common recognition process. For example, a context free grammar designed for speech inputs may be just as applicable to typed text, therefore the recognition process for typed text can utilize portions of the infrastructure designed for speech processing. The information passed to recognition process 308 can take the form of actual digitized values collected through the interface or selected features representing the content of those digitized values. For example, for speech input, the information passed to recognition process 308 can include digital samples of the speech signal or Cepstral feature vectors representing the spectral content of frames of the speech signal.
[0032] In FIG. 3, recognition process 308 is shown as being connected to user agent 302 through a network 312, which can be a wide-area network or a local area network. In other embodiments, recognition process 308 is located on the same computing device as user agent 302 but is executed as a separate process from user agent 302.
[0033] Recognition process 308 decodes the input to identify a set of values represented by the input. The input is decoded using a set of recognition models 316 and a recognition/semantic grammar 314. Recognition models 316 provide likelihoods for possible values that can be represented by the input while grammar 314 limits the possible values that can be provided by the input. For example, for speech recognition, grammar 314 provides a set of words or word sequences that are allowable in the input.
[0034] In one embodiment, recognition/semantic grammar 314 is written in a tagged mark-up language. An example of a portion of a recognition/semantic grammar 314 is shown in FIG. 4.
[0035] In FIG. 4, the grammar is divided into a collection of rules, with each rule embedded between a respective set of <Rule> tags. For example, the �person� rule is found between rule tags 400 and 402. Allowable sequences of words for the grammar of FIG. 4 are found after <p> tags. For example, the word strings �Kuansan Wang� and �Bill Somename� after tags 404 and 406, respectively, represent allowed word sequences under the grammar.
[0036] Under the present invention, the grammar defines a tagged output structure that is returned to the user along with the recognized words when the input matches an entry in the grammar. In one embodiment shown in FIG. 4, the structure to be returned is found between <output> tags such as tags 408 and 410. Thus, if �Kuansan Wang� is recognized from the input, the tagged structure between tags 408 and 410 would be returned to user agent 302 along with the string �Kuansan Wang�. Thus, the following mark-up text would be returned:
[0037] In the past, recognition programs returned the recognized input and perhaps some semantic values that were linked to that input in the grammar. However, recognition programs did not return database information that had been taken from a database related to an application.
[0038] Under embodiments of the present invention, information is taken from a database associated with an application and is stored in the grammar so that it can be returned with the recognition results. For example, in FIG. 4, the phone number 412 for Kuansan Wang is retrieved from a database 320 associated with directory assistance application 310 and is stored in the <output> tags of grammar 314 so that it can be returned with the recognized text to user agent 302. This reduces the need for a further communication between user agent 302 and application 310 because user agent 302 does not have to relay the recognition results to application 310 in order to retrieve the database information. For example, in the recognition results of �Kuansan Wang�, the phone number for Kuansan is provided directly to user agent 302 so that user agent 302 does not have to pass the recognized name �Kuansan Wang� to application 310.
[0039] Under embodiments of the present invention, recognition/semantic grammar 314 is constructed by a grammar constructor 318. Under some embodiments, grammar constructor 318 is associated with application 310 and thus is written to provide a grammar that is optimized for application 310. In other embodiments, grammar constructor 318 is not directly affiliated with any one particular application but instead is written to support a number of different applications. In most embodiments, grammar constructor 318 accesses database 320 using low priority queries. This minimizes the impact of grammar construction on applications that are currently utilizing the database. In addition, grammar constructor 318 is typically not continually running but instead is run periodically to update the data in grammar 314. The amount of time between updates to grammar 314 is a design choice based on how often the data in the grammar changes, how critical it is that the user agent be given the correct information, and the impact that grammar construction has on the performance of the application. Note that when grammar 314 is updated, the database values can be changed without changing the allowed recognition strings.
[0040] Under a further embodiment, grammar constructor 318 generates recognition/semantic grammar 314 by retrieving data from at least two databases associated with two different applications. For example, grammar constructor 318 forms grammar 314 from data in database 320 associated with application 310 and database 322 associated with application 324. This provides a simple way to give user agent 302 access to data associated with more than one application. For example, in the grammar of FIG. 4, phone number 412 is found in database 320 associated with directory assistance application 310. However, the location 414 of a WAV file containing a voice recording of the person saying their own name is found in database 322 associated with a unified messaging application 324.
[0041] In the past, it has been difficult to redesign an application to access the data of a second application while maintaining the performance levels desired for the application. For example, it would be difficult to redesign directory assistance application 310 so that it can access database 322 to locate the location of a WAV file based on a user's name while still answering directory assistance questions with the desired speed. By making the grammar construction an �off-line� process that is separate from the applications, the present invention allows database information from more than one application to be easily accessed by a user agent.
[0042]FIG. 5 provides a flow diagram that summarizes the method inherent in the discussion above. At step 500, grammar constructor 318 constructs recognition/semantic grammar 314 by accessing one or more databases 320, 322. Grammar constructor 318 then alerts recognition process 308 to the existence of the new grammar at step 502.
[0043] At step 504, user agent 302 obtains user input based on instructions received from application 310. This input is passed to recognition process 308 at step 508. Recognition process 308 uses recognition model 316 and grammar 314 to decode the user input and to identify decoded values in grammar 314 at step 510. Based on the identified decoded values, recognition process 308 returns the decoded values and database values stored in grammar 314 to user agent 302 at step 512.
[0044] Although the present invention has been described with reference to preferred embodiments, workers skilled in the art will recognize that changes may be made in form and detail without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention. In particular, although the invention has been described above with reference to XML-based tagged languages, the data constructs may be formed using any of a variety of known formats including tree structures.

Deepika Padukone may have chartered a successful Bollywood career for herself in a short span but the actress says she is rarely happy with her work.
The 25-year-old says her self-criticism helps her do better with each film.
"I am very harsh on myself. I am very rarely satisfied with my own work but I am glad that it is like this. I would rather be harsh on myself than be happy with the smallest thing that I do. I compete with myself and challenge myself to do better everyday. It gives me the drive to push myself otherwise I would be stuck in the rut," Deepika said.
The 26-year-old proved that she is more than a pretty face with her powerful performance as Veronica in 'Cocktail', her lone release this year.
"I am glad that this film happened for people to realise that. I have always believed in my work and myself but sometimes you have to wait for the right script and opportunity to come your way. 'Cocktail' did that for me."
She has already won an award for her performance in the film. Deepika, however, says she is more happy to see that the audiences' perception about her has changed for good.
"I think awards are always welcome. Big Star awards recently acknowledged my contribution. But I am more happy about the energy shift that I feel from the audiences post Veronica. There is nothing in the world that compensates for that feeling."
With her latest film 'Race 2' ready to hit the screens on January 25, Deepika says she is looking forward to 2013.
"I could not have asked for more this year. I invested a lot emotionally into the character of Veronica and I am very happy with the result. It has been a great year for me not only in terms of Cocktail's success but also with the kind of films that I signed post that. I have an interesting line-up for 2013."
Deepika is looking forward to a busy year in 2013 with 'Race 2', 'Kochadaiyaan' and 'Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani' releases. She has also reunited with Shah Rukh Khan for 'Chennai Express' after 'Om Shanti Om' besides working with Sanjay Leela Bhansali for 'Ram Leela'.
"'Yeh Jawaani...' is almost done and we have just started shooting 'Chennai Express'. I am working with Shah Rukh again after four years. The film is true to Rohit Shetty's style. While 'Ram Leela' with Sanjay Leela Bhansali is a love story," says Deepika, adding that 'Kochadaiyaan' with superstar Rajinikanth is ready for release.
Talking about 'Race 2', her first release of the year, Deepika says she plays a manipulative role.
"It is for the first time that I am doing an action thriller. The first part was very successful and Race 2 has similar twists and turns. My character Alina is very manipulative and intelligent and she knows how to get her way through whatever she wants."
The Abbas-Mustan film also stars Saif Ali Khan, Anil Kapoor, John Abraham, Jacqueline Fernandez, Ameesha Patel and Bipasha Basu.

This is a clear case of sedition on a scale of being an executable offense. There is every reason to believe that by suppressing the conservative non-profits groups from campaigning against Obama allowed for his re-election. If you think for one minute Obama wouldn't commute her prison sentence, you are a fool. The morning after her conviction of sedition, Lois Lerner should be dragged from her holding cell and hung by the neck until dead from a DC cherry tree in full bloom. It would mark the beginning of a Marxist Spring when we would charge and convict Obama, Holder, Napalitano, Clinton and the chief bureaucrats responsible for Fast and Furious, a clear example of providing arms to known enemies of the State with no intention of tracking those weapons, but with every intention of undermining our 2nd Amendment rights, i.e. TREASON.

Vacation irrigation
I'm a new gardener so please bear with me. I'm going on a vacation in a few weeks where ill be gone for a week. It is not possible to have someone water for me (nor would I trust anyone around here who offered!) so I'd like to come up with a beginner's guide to drip irrigation, keeping in mind I'm new and have small funds.
I have about 8 containers and 4 beds to water. The containers are mostly in the same area. I was thinking of some kind of Hose contraption whereby I could have almost a spider network of hoses to water the miscellaneous containers.
4 of the containers are half buried in my front bed. So I'm thinking a full overwatering of that bed before I leave and possibly a timer on a sprinkler for that bed would be sufficient.
If this makes sense, help! Al can you help with this? My containers are all veggies and herbs.

"I would take $12 million in the subsidies to wind to begin to double energy research," Alexander said today after a speech at the Advanced Research Projects Agency-Energy (ARPA-E) fourth annual Innovation Summit at the National Harbor in suburban Washington, D.C. The senator, who has criticized wind energy subsidies in particular in the past, said during his speech that he would target "subsidies," not just wind, as places to find funding for R&D.
Key Republican senators offer funding for R&D from subsidies, drilling revenue sharing
'Coal is a dead man walking' — Bloomberg
New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg blasted coal-fired power generation today during a high-profile Energy Department innovation summit just outside Washington, D.C. "The king is dead. Coal is a dead man walking," Bloomberg said during the Advanced Research Projects Agency-Energy (ARPA-E) conference. "We are heading toward the sustainable future that we all want."
AWEA Fact check: Harvard study misses real-world facts about wind power
A recent [Harvard] study errs in its assessment of potential wind energy resources by ignoring real-world data and experience and instead relying on crude theoretical modeling techniques. In reality, wind project developers and investors work closely with atmospheric scientists and other experts to make sure that their projects will produce as much as expected, and real-world data from large-scale wind installations in the US and Europe confirms that they do. Regardless of who is correct, the inescapable fact is that America's developable wind energy resources are many times greater than our country's energy needs.
Carper to introduce bill extending investment tax credit
Sen. Tom Carper (D-Del.) today is expected to reintroduce a bill offering tax credits for the first companies to build offshore wind projects in the United States. Carper's bill would offer a 30 percent investment tax credit for the first 3,000 megawatts of new offshore wind projects, which would likely cover at least the first several projects. Carper said he is hoping his bill can be part of a comprehensive overhaul of the tax code.
Vestas cuts turbine blade workers but adds tower jobs in Colo.
Vestas Wind Systems A/S is cutting 110 jobs at its two blade factories in Colorado and adding 100 workers at another plant that makes wind turbine towers in the same state. The Danish wind turbine maker is reducing its workforce at factories in Windsor and Brighton, while adding jobs in Pueblo. Before the announcement, Vestas employed about 1,100 workers in Colorado.
Salazar: Looming Sequestration Threatens Offshore Wind Energy Development
The progress that offshore wind energy has made thus far in the U.S. could be stymied by cuts made under sequestration, U.S. Department of the Interior (DOI) Secretary Ken Salazar said at the Offshore Wind Power USA conference, which is being held in Boston this week. "We have made impressive gains – approving dozens of utility-scale solar, wind and geothermal projects in the West, and transitioning from planning to commercial leasing for offshore wind," Salazar said during his keynote address. "The potentially devastating impact of budget reductions under sequestration could slow our economy and hurt energy sector workers and businesses."
Washington Post poll finds majority support in Md. for offshore wind energy
A majority of Maryland residents support Gov. Martin O'Malley's plan to subsidize development of giant windmills in the Atlantic Ocean, according a new Washington Post poll. And there is growing momentum for the bill to pass the Maryland General Assembly this year.
Keeping Realistic Expectations About Wind Energy
According to new research from the Harvard School of Engineering and Applied Sciences, the notion that wind energy presents an unending supply of power might be a bit misleading. While there may be no end to breezes and gusts, the way we harness them could be counterproductive, according to applied physicist David Keith. His latest research, which applies mesoscale atmospheric modeling, finds large-scale wind farms will not be as effective as previously thought. His conclusions have now been published in the journal Environmental Research Letters.
Bipartisan group of former officials, lawmakers say warming is a security issue
Former Cabinet officials and lawmakers from both parties are among the 37 signers of an open letter released today that highlights the potential impact of climate change on geopolitical stability and U.S. national security. Former Sens. Richard Lugar (R-Ind.) and Joseph Lieberman (I-Conn.) were among those calling on their former colleagues in the Partnership for a Secure America letter to "support American security and global stability by addressing the risks of climate change in vulnerable nations."
Study: Wind power's role overestimated
The global generating capacity of wind farms has been overestimated and the world may not have access to as much wind power as thought, U.S. researchers say. "People have often thought there's no upper bound for wind power — that it's one of the most scalable power sources," Harvard University applied physicist David Keith says.

Army Corporal Jerald Kendrick was 23 years old the first time he watched an atomic bomb explode. The light was so bright, he says, "you could see all the bones in your arms." During the height of the Cold War, the United States conducted 210 atmospheric nuclear tests. What's often forgotten today are the thousands of soldiers and Marines who performed various duties during the blasts, including charging the mushroom cloud.
The Golden Gate Bridge is an iconic landmark of San Francisco and, tragically, one of the most popular places in the world to commit suicide. Few know this better than Kevin Briggs, a sergeant with the California Highway Patrol who has talked hundreds of people out of jumping. Update: In May 2013, Sgt. Briggs met Kevin Berthia, who he saved on the bridge eight years ago, at an event honoring suicide prevention. Read about their reunion here.

Leonard Knight lived alone in the California desert for twenty-eight years, building a mountain to share his message: "Love God, love Jesus, and love the people." When his health failed, his friends rallied to save his life. He recently returned to the mountain to see how a new generation of caretakers have preserved his life's work.

2003 Pontiac Grand Prix Overview
Overall User Score
Based on 27 reviews
The stylishly sleek coupes are no longer in the lineup for the 2003 Pontiac Grand Prix. Now it only comes in a more family-oriented 4-door sedan, as a base SE, GT, or supercharged GTP. More full-sized than its mid-sized classification, the Grand Prix always aimed to blend heavily-loaded luxury features with a dash of exciting driving performance.
Engines remain the same for each trim. A 3.1-liter, 175-hp V6 powers the SE, and a 3.8-liter, 200-hp V6 propels the GT. A supercharged 240-hp version of the 3.8 sits in the sportier GTP. All are matched with a 4-speed automatic overdrive transmission, with normal and performance modes. Additional changes to the 2003 Grand Prix include more across-the-line standard features, such as a CD player, overhead console, backseat reading lights, and the trunk pass-through. A Limited Edition Package for the GT and GTP again gives them a new spoiler, badging, white gauges, blue foglights, and seats with leather inserts to keep you from moving around when chasing curves.
Performance-wise, 2003 Grand Prix owners seem very happy. They love the engine power, great pick-up, easy cruising capability, and the stability and confidence of the wide track handling. The Grand Prix looks and feels sporty enough for parents who don't want to entirely sacrifice fun for responsibility. Seating room is spacious and gas mileage decent. The heads-up display remains a favorite feature. A sloping roofline limits rear headroom, say owners, the thinly padded seats are not comfortable for long trips. Once again, a shoddy-looking plastic interior suffers from rattling and is not durable. Some drivers report a noisy ride.

Who wouldn't want to feel happy all the time? In Generosity: An Enhancement (Farrar, Straus and Giroux), the tenth novel by Richard Powers (a MacArthur genius whose last book, The Echo Maker, was a Pulitzer Prize finalist), Russell Stone is a mild-mannered writing teacher who finds one of his students, 23-year-old refugee Thassa Amzwar, to be preternaturally joyful. Obsessed by how her good mood persists despite the horrors she survived in Algeria and the urban indignities she faces in Chicago, Russell starts to suspect it's all due to genetics. But when he carelessly outs Thassa to the happiness-mad world, the woman known as "Miss Generosity" and "Bliss Chick" to her classmates becomes the goose with the golden egg to a scientist bent on replicating and profiting from her "happy gene." The ensuing media circus and science frenzy threaten to take Thassa down, and Russell tries to save her, whatever the cost to himself and the woman he plans to marry. Powers' achievement is to depict Thassa without annoyingly caricaturing her in a novel that's not about the struggle between glad and sad but about the vulnerability of fragile joys to humans who are emotionally stunted but technologically advanced.

Heat have interest in Zydrunas Ilgauskas
Jul 11, 2010, 10:48 AM EDT
This should make Cavs happy. Did I say happy? I meant, "feel like they were kicked in the back of the head after getting hit in the groin with a tire iron."
Mike Wallace of the Miami Herald reports that Zydrunas Ilgauskas is "looking into the option" of joining LeBron James, a close personal friend, in Miami for the veteran minimum. Ilgauskas, the Cavs' main man before James arrived in 2003, helped integrate LeBron to the league and has been on his team ever since.
Ilgauskas was dismayed last season when first his record-breaking appearance as a Cav night was postponed thanks to Mike Brown electing to DNP-CD him, despite the presence of many Z friends and family that had been brought in for the game. Things couldn't have gotten better when Z was shipped to Washington for Antawn Jamison. Z was bought out from the Wizards and returned to the Cavs to try and help them win a championship, which obviously did not happen.
There was a lot of talk that James was the biggest proponent of bringing Z back, even though it was the need to put superstar talent around James that necessitated the trade in the first place. So really, it may end up being that LeBron James' decision to leave Cleveland could cost Cavs fans two life-long Cavaliers.
For the Heat, Z is a perfect fit. Seven feet tall, a veteran, still able to rebound and hit a few jump shots, and knows how to work with LeBron. He fits literally every single one of their needs at center. And he's a much better option than Juwan Howard, who they're also considering. This could wind up as a huge move for the Heat.
That should make Cavs fans feel better about it. Did I say better? I meant…

Here is a link that might be useful:
It's not a disease, but an insect infestation. Those bumps are sucking insects.
I'd use something like Sevin, fast. Or, what might be better for the plants in the surrounding areas is to get rid of those plants.
Just my opinion, someone else might have other advise on how to get rid of them.
Eew. Yeah, those are bugs; the ants are hanging around because the sucking insects excrete excess sugars (that they're sucking out of your plant) as a sticky "honeydew" substance that the ants love. They'll even "farm" groups of aphids, protecting the aphids and collecting the honeydew. [Note: I don't know that these are aphids; they may be some sort of scale?]
Can you scrape the bugs off? If so, a stiff blast of water will get rid of them pretty quickly, though it will need to be repeated daily for a while, as eggs already laid will hatch and start eating. (The bugs you spray off won't find their way back to your plant).
If you can't scrape them off easily, then you'll have to do as Barb suggests and spray the plant with a systemic insecticide.
Good luck!
Yeah, scale. (See link below, and scroll down to pests).
This site discusses what to do when the scale is on a dormant plant; you may need some other treatment since the plant is still trying to produce leaves, I'm just not sure.
If you have a county extension office available give them a call.

We should probably preface all of this by declaring that, outside of Carey Price, the Montreal Canadiens probably didn't deserve to win tonight (Jeez, haven't heard THAT before, eh?).
The Habs played a sloppy and inconsistent game against Sidney Crosby and the Pittsburgh Penguins at the Bell Centre tonight, and the end result was a 4-3 overtime loss against what was obviously a better team.
That's what should have been the game story following tonight's game. Instead, we're left to sift through the wreckage of the hockey equivalent of a nuclear missile. No, the story of tonight's game wasn't Carey Price's amaz...
Claude Giroux scored two goals for the Philadelphia Flyers to beat the Habs on the afternoon after Thanksgiving.
The first period was a lackluster affair as both teams were looking for their legs after having their Thanksgiving dinners. Less than three minutes into the game the Habs got called for one of their infamous too many men penalties. In true Hab fashion this season it was killed off with hardly any shots recorded on Carey Price. Nokelainen scored his first goal as a member of the Canadiens near the end of the first with assists going to Hal Gill and Josh Gorges...yes it was that kind of afternoon. The shots in the first period was 10-4 in favour of the Habs-.
Coming into tonight's head-to-head with the Hurricanes, the Montreal Canadiens hadn't put two of anything together since the Western road trip that saw them beat the Coyotes and Predators two weeks ago. And it stopped there.
In the first period of this game, a significant portion of Habs' fans had their eyes on the Bruins/Sabres rematch, and it was difficult to blame them. Jiri Tlusty opened the scoring within the first minute of the game and Anthony Stewart made it 2-0 for the Hurricanes at the 6-minute mark. For the remainder of the opening frame, the Can...
The New York Rangers paid a visit to the Bell Centre in Montreal. The game featured some nice hitting on both sides and some power play opportunities. The Rangers never got on track in this contest.
Power play goals by Cole and Plekanec paved the way for the Habs dominated game. Carey Price made 17 saves to record his second shutout in as many games played.
The young, inexperienced defenders were certainly up to the task of protecting Price and the net. Emelin once again did some hitting and sound positional play. Crisp clean clearing passes were the order of this evening.
This game featured two goals by the Captain and these were set up by the much-mal...
A tale of two games in one. One in which the Habs dominated and the other where the team sat back and allowed the Sabres not only back in the game but lead to the eventual loss in a shootout.
In the first two periods the Habs dominated the Sabres and the player of the game was none other than Erik Cole. He played a whale of a game in regulation, finishing checks, going to the net and scoring a rare power play goal. The Sabres had no answer to the line of Cole, Pacioretty and Desharnais in regularion. They were buzzing the net and creating chances. Spacek also played a heck of a game until he got injured in the middle of the game. Engqvist also played decently until he got injured by...
The Montreal Canadiens are coming off of a 3-1 loss against the Edmonton Oilers on Tuesday night, and head into Jobing.com Arena as the first team the Coyotes have faced since they beat those same Oilers 4-2 on Saturday night. Phoenix, however, are winless against Montreal through the last 11 games between the two. Tonight's matchup also happens to be the 2500th against the Canadiens since the beginning of the Jets'/Coyotes' franchise.
Montreal Canadiens Vs. New York Rangers
The New Madison Square Garden
New York, New York
After over a month and twelve games if the team you supported was 500 would you be happy? If the team you followed was average without having its top defenceman in the line-up would you be happy? Well that is where the Montreal Canadiens are. They are just an average team sitting just out of a playoff position. How they got here is a different story but how they move forward is more important.
The eminent off and on return of the Andrei Markov which was the big story two weeks ago has been forgotten. P.K. Subb...
Hi. Nice to you see you again. It's been a while, hasn't it?
Only a month into the 2011-12, it seems like we've had to go through yet another off-season, with six days off between the Canadiens' last couple of games (a sweep of a home-and-home series against the struggling Boston Bruins) and tonight's match-up against the red hot (wut) Ottawa Senators. Even the weather cooperated here in Montreal, with a few nice days throughout the week, despite the fact that it's November.
Yup, it definitely felt like we just had another mini off-season, and quite frankly, it couldn't have come at a worst time...
The NHL named Flyers winger Jaromir Jagr, who scored five goals and seven total points in four games, as their 3rd Star of the Week.
The Habs have beaten the Bruins for the second time in as many games in a spirited affair in the Bell Centre. The Habs opened the scoring and never looked back. They are playing a more cohesive game since the firing of Perry Pearn.
The coaching staff is more animated and the team is playing with more life than they have played in a long while. The effort is there and they are going to the net and the results have started to come through.
The game featured some good scoring chances on both sides and some nice saves on both sides of the ice.
The referees had a tight game, calling the Bruins on many penalties in the first 40 minutes. The Habs power play capitalized on...

Olive Branch
Feds stake claim on $20,000
Federal authorities want to claim $20,000 in cash found in a briefcase in the home of an Olive Branch man suspected of trafficking in stolen cell phones, laptop computers and other merchandise.
Agents with the FBI Auto Cargo Task Force said in court papers this week that a confidential informant sold Moaid "Mike" Abbadi 38 cases of cell phones last December that purportedly were stolen from a train in Arkansas.
Abbadi, who owns Safe and Sound Car Audio in Memphis, also bought 16 HP Pavilion computers and 98 Siemens cell phones in April that the informant represented as having been stolen, agents said in federal forfeiture documents filed in federal court in Memphis.
Several days later, on April 10, agents raided Abbadi's home in the 10000 block of Fox Run Drive in Olive Branch and discovered the cash, 60 blank money orders each with a face value of $1,000 and numerous HP Pavilion laptops and cell phones.
Agents say the cash, money orders and electronics are subject to forfeiture as proceeds of unlawful activity.
Abbadi, who has not been charged with a crime, could not be reached Friday.

Horn Lake
City agrees to buy software
The Horn Lake Board of Aldermen has agreed to purchase a new comprehensive software package to upgrade the city's record-keeping and municipal operations.
Munis, the software package, is a product of Tyler Technologies.
"We're hoping to be able to start with the new program about Oct. 1, when the new budget year begins, but we expect it will take about six months for a complete conversion," said Andrea Freeze, city administrator.
Freeze said the installation and data conversion should take 6 to 8 weeks.
The software package alone costs $87,000 and the data conversion adds $18,000 as the city converts its software records to the new system.
Tyler will provide on-site training of city personnel in using the new materials and the city will have an annual maintenance and upgrades cost of $11,000.
The total package is expected to cost $250,000, but the board approved the contract Tuesday night, subject to review by City Atty. Billy Campbell Jr. at a cost not to exceed $300,000.

Heads up: Top comment and controversy
Emmys 2012 Highlights
24 September 2012 08:18 AM
An audience of 12.4 million tuned in to watch last night's 64th Emmy Award ceremony, in which espionage thriller Homeland scooped 'Best Drama' and star Damian Lewis 'Best Lead Actor'. People magazine counts down the top five moments from the night, including:
Jimmy Kimmel's Short & Sweet Opener
"Awards show openers aren't usually known for their brevity, but Kimmel kept his monologue short and sweet. 'Let's not forget, in a way, all of you are winners tonight, but in a much more literal way, most of you will be losers,' he joked. 'The important thing is we get out of here and you can put on your fat pants.' He kept up the laughs later on as well, quipping, 'If you ever wondered what happens during the commercial breaks backstage, try to imagine all your favorite TV stars all in one room, checking their phones and ignoring each other.' "
Aziz Ansari's British moment
The star of Parks and Recreation, Aziz Ansari, had this to say before he presented an award. "On behalf of myself and all the other British actors here, thank you, Hollywood, for welcoming us," he joked. "It is bloody amazing to go from doing theater in London to presenting here at the Emmys. It's brilliant. Bloody brilliant, fish 'n chips, cheers." His co-presenter, Jane Levy then chimed in, asking, "I thought you were from North Carolina?" To which Ansari replied, "Yeah, but I feel like people take your acting more seriously when you're British." (For the record, he's actually from South Carolina.)"
