Quick Question
If not this one, is there another laptop case or sleeve pattern around that people have had any luck with? Not a full laptop bag, but just a sleeve.
Suggestions welcome!!

Here are some free tutorials.
Laptop sleeve:
iPod cozy:
http://blackmarketbeagle.blogspot.com/2007/10/ipod-cozy-tutorial.htmlI did not use this exact pattern, but I did make a case like this one and I am not very happy with the result. For my computer, I got an Apple Sac, something that could also easily be made. Here's the link - http://applesac.com/morningglory.html
They even use cute Amy Butler fabric for theirs. It holds the computer nice and tight and keeps it from getting damaged while in my bag or just carrying it around. My sister also has one and loves it!Haven't got the laptop pattern, but I have used her Big Sky Hat pattern and it is great.
As for a laptop sleeve, I just measured my laptop, added 2 inches all around and cut out 4 rectangles -- two of an outside fabric and two of a lining fabric. Then I would make four little rectangles about 2.4 inches by 6 inches, and get some velcro or a couple of buttons.
Stitch the little rectangles like pillowcases into two little straps. Add button holes or velcro.
Then stitch the outside of the cover like a pillowcase or simple bag, around 3 sides. Stitch the lining the same way, but leave a hole for turning. Pin the straps to the top of the outside on the right side, put the outside of the bag inside the lining and stitch around the top. Flip it all right side out through the hole in the lining and then stitch up the hole.
Then topstitch around the top, add buttons or velcro to the front, and you're good to go.
I like this because I can put my laptop in the sleeve when its hot with the vents on the open side and I don't have to worry about silicon meltdowns. I also have a pocket on the front of mine for a pen and notebook, because I'm just one of those people who needs a pen, even though they've got their laptop . . .
Does that make any sense at all? If not, never mind. Proceed with reading the more intelligent comments.

Nestled in the foothills of the stunning Santa Catalina Mountains, The Westin La Paloma Resort & Spa is less than 20 miles from the Tucson, Arizona, airport—yet it feels worlds apart. Surrounding the resort are the brilliant colors and unique shapes of the classic desert landscape, including golden sands, craggy mountains, wildlife and wildflowers, and century-old Saguaro cactuses. This natural splendor is perfectly balanced by the easy access to culture and attractions: shopping, fine dining, museums, and galleries are all just a short drive away. With more than 300 days of sunshine a year and clear, cool summer evenings, we offer an exceptional setting for fun-filled, rejuvenating visits.

Foskett Jr TELEGRAM & GAZETTE STAFFFITCHBURG Fire damaged a barn attached to a Wanoosnoc Road home Wednesday. Deputy Chief John C. Curran said firefighters were able to quickly get the fire under control, and prevented it from spreading to the attached home at 177 Wanoosnoc Road. The deputy chief said that around 6 p.m. firefighters arrived to find heavy fire coming from windows and the main door of the barn. The homeowner was home at the time of the fire, and was able to get out of the house uninjured. The fire quickly went to two alarms, and firefighters initially had trouble with a defective fire hydrant across the street. Firefighters had the blaze under control in about 45 minutes; Deputy Chief Curran said an engine company remained on the scene for overhauling. Firefighters were assisted at the scene by an engine and ladder company from Leominster. Townsend, Westminster and Lunenburg firefighters covered the station, Deputy Chief Curran said. The fire remains under investigation, Deputy Chief Curran said.

My Aussie mix loves these. They don't last too long but she will do anything if I have one of these in my hand
"One of the best dog treats EVER!"
I've been giving Woofers to my 14yo Lab/Chow now for more than 5 years and they are definitely one of her all-time favorite treats (the other being, coincidentally, or not so coincidentally, another Jones product -- Beef Liver Tender Taffy, which Jeffers has yet to add to its inventory). Very natural, nutritious and fun-to-eat product. It's great to be able to come here to get the 50ct box at such an AMAZING price -- thanks, Jeffers!
"My pug and pekingese love these!"
My babies love these! My 2yr old pug is always excited to have one of these and my 3yr old Pekingese chews on it for a little bit and hides it to save it for later. I love the price! Going to reorder more!
"Smell really yummy!!"
We have 6 dogs, and everyone of them likes these hamburger patties! They smell really yummy (don't worry; I won't try one). I am especially happy that they are made in the USA with USA meat rather than China. I will keep these on hand at all times for my canine buddies.

More InfoAll of our collars, unless otherwise noted on the collar's page, are measured to the center hole for a TRUE neck size. Simply measure your dog's neck at the base for the proper collar size. There should always be enough room to slip one finger between your pet's neck and the collar, so do this as you determine your dog's neck size. The measurement of your dog's neck is the size of the collar it needs.
You don't buy pants for yourself that are a certain measurement and add or subtract several inches to get your true pants measurement, right? Why should you do that for your dog? We like to keep it simple and logical here at Dog IDs, Measure your dog's neck and order that size collar. That's the way it should be!
Simply measure your dog's neck at the base for the proper collar size. There should always be enough room between the pet's neck and the collar to slip one finger between them comfortably.
Method 1) Measure your dog's neck with a sewing tape while keeping two fingers between his skin and the tape.
Method 2) Wrap a string around your dogs neck with two fingers between his skin and the string. Mark the string and then measure the length of it.
Method 3) Remove your dog's current collar and stretch it out flat. Then measure from the center of the buckle to the current sizing hole being used.

Stories from people who were children during World War II and the objects in this exhibit animate the past and inform us of a time when war took over daily life. "Retrospect is a very interesting thing," says Ruthie Kallnder. "At the time I don't recall any of the information we got as being propaganda," but the government tried to influence children to make "necessary" sacrifices. Propagandists made the war a battle between good and evil, democracy and fascism. They also asked children to share in the war effort. In response, many children took on more responsibilities. Ruthie explains that boys and girls felt "if that's what it was going to take" to win they "were willing to do it." The memories of the people in this exhibit and their wartime actions show the power of propaganda's messages and its lasting affect on their lives. Propaganda posters, children's books, and classroom assignments demonstrate how propagandists reached children and involved them in the national war effort.

This is an open thread for any topic not covered in other posts. Please feel free to discuss whatever you wish here (but keep it polite, constructive, and at least tangentially connected to the polymath enterprise.)
36 Comments »
I am not sure exactly where to post suggestions for polymath projects that one is not willing to run (I don't have the time or energy to maintain one myself), but I thought I would toss out a problem in computational complexity that has always bugged me. It is a problem that is easy to state, probably will succumb to elementary methods, and probably could be solved if enough people contributed ideas. Here goes: consider the usual subset sum (or is it knapsack?) problem where you are given a list of positive integers N_1, …, N_k, and a target number T, and you must decide whether there is some subset of N_1, …, N_k that sums to T. The problem is to beat the "trivial algorithm", which I shall describe presently.
The first thing to realize is that there is a subset sum equal to T iff there is one equal to S-T, where S=N_1 + … + N_k. Furthermore, subsets of size t summing to T correspond uniquely to subsets of size k-t summing to S-T. In this way, you only need to consider subsets of size at most k/2 (and check whether they sum of T or S-T) to solve the problem. But now you can use the usual "collision technique" to reduce the problem to subsets of size at most k/4, by forming a table of all subsets of at most this size, along with their sum of elements, until you find a disjoint pair of subsets that sums to either T or S-T. The running time of this procedure should be comparable to (k choose k/4) = c^(k+o(k)), for a certain constant c that is easy to work out. This is what I mean by the "trivial algorithm". Now, the problem is find an algorithm — any at all — that runs in time at most d^k, where d < c. To my knowledge no such algorithm is know to exist!
Thanks for the problem! We are planning to organise another polymath project beyond the primes one (which already has a strong computational complexity component to it), and this may well be a candidate if we can find people to run it (one lesson we've learned so far is that engaged leadership is quite important to make these things run smoothly). I do know that there is some interest in the CS community in running these things, so this may well be a good candidate.
Edit: I've set up a wiki page at http://michaelnielsen.org/polymath1/index.php?title=Other_proposed_projects to collect projects of this nature.
Comment by Terence Tao — August 3, 2009 @ 2:20 pm | Reply
I have developed an algorithm for this problem as well as a target range. In essence it is based on determining the largest number that can be selected without exceeding the target by the size of the smallest number selected. This technique manages to provide an efficient way of selecting subsets such that if any one of the selected numbers is deselected the result will be less than the target, (for a single target). It also is easily adapted to determining multiple subset totals from a single set. This was inspired from problems in oil delivery delivery logistics, and how to fill vehicles. As to it's worst case performance I'm not sure how to go about determining this.

WordPress seems to be marking some of my posts in the research thread as spam (or holding them for moderation, at minimum?) — understandable, perhaps, given a high posting rate, wordiness, and a tendency to link externally, but annoying. I suppose it's possible that I'm the only one being affected, but it seems unlikely. Is there any way to loosen the restrictions to minimize the number of legitimate comments that aren't immediately posted?
Unfortunately there doesn't seem to be an option to reduce the stringency of the spam filter (other than to raise the threshold of external links, which I've upped to five), but I will try to check it daily.

I have been contacted by someone about possibly writing an article about polymath. I have some questions about how to handle this. For instance they mentioned us possibly having a spokesman and it is not clear that we have that. We might want to consider having some sort of organizational structure to deal with the media. For one thing there are a lot of potential readers for something like this and that could result in more people entering future polymath's. Another issue that comes to mind is that they wanted to see something about people talking about their experiences with polymath and we have several threads already dealing with that but I don't think there is one central hub for referring to all of these.
Comment by Kristal Cantwell — August 12, 2009 @ 6:49 pm | Reply
Hmm, I'm actually a bit surprised that we have media attention at all… but if there are inquiries then certainly we could discuss them on this blog (John Baez recently did something similar when he was solicited by the Notices of the AMS to talk about blogging). Tim is probably the most obvious person to contact, being the one who originated the whole polymath idea and being involved in all of the polymath projects to date.
Comment by Terence Tao — August 12, 2009 @ 9:57 pm | Reply
I gave Tim's name to them. It is the Notices, I think they want to do a feature article on blogging as well as polymath in addtion to what John Baez is writing.

Let me make a comment about the checks and X's: Some kind of "Are you sure you want to Check (or X) that comment?" query needs to be added to the wordpress page. Just today I was trying to look up a last minute comment to include in my NSF grant proposal, and the mouse point moved over someones comment, and I accidentally clicked the check. I thought that if I then clicked the X, it would erase what I had done, but instead it added another X, and kept the check (or maybe there wasn't really a check added in the first place — it seemed like there was, though).
Yes, this is a problem – there should be a mechanism to "uncheck" a comment back to the neutral mode. My plan at this point is to collect a list of grievances so that when the time comes to move to a better platform, we will know what features to implement. (#1 on the list is the ability to preview and edit comments.)

I have suggested 3 problems to be solved collaboratively:
http://portonmath.wordpress.com/2009/10/20/complete-lattice-generated-by-a-partitioning-of-a-lattice-element/(note that the last two seem being closely related) and also I suggested a bigger "research writing" project:
I have the hope that at least one of my projects will be selected by the Admins.
However you may follow the above URLs which contain pingbacks to other my blog posts, and note that I wrote it a little messy (because of automatically generated pingback comments instead of hand-crafted comments). Is that OK?
I have the incentive and time to host and moderate the research thread and the discussion thread, but I'm unsure whether I started correctly. Please reply me with an explanation on how I may re-organize my blog posts. Maybe I should (when one of my projects will be officially selected) post two new blog posts to start the research thread and the discussion thread?
Or maybe, somebody other would host the discussion on the blogs? I feel not very important whether it will be done by myself or somebody other, but I feel I need to ask for a little guidance. Well, I feel indeed that I am able to be a good moderator for these my own projects.
Thanks for the contributions! Currently we are not planning any new projects on this blog in the near future, but this may change if one of the proposals picks up momentum of its own accord (this happened with the finding primes project).

My problems (see above) has the advantage that they (AFAIK) do not require any special knowledge. Every mathematician knows lattice theory. Not every mathematician knows number theory and computational complexity theory, which seem main competitors for my tasks.

I never suggested to write an expository book on lattices.
Among my suggestions there are a half expository half research book on filters on posets and generalizations thereof:
http://portonmath.wordpress.com/2009/08/29/polymath-filters-on-posets/(Certainly it is related with lattices but isn't an "expository book on lattices".)
I'm not sure whether my theory of filters in interesting for general mathematical audience. (The theory of filters is mainly a technical not beautiful theory, however there I introduce some concepts which count to be beautiful, e.g. my theory of filtrators and related "core parts" and "dual core parts" is a beautiful part of the theory.) However the theory of filters is important for my further research "Algebraic General Topology":
http://www.mathematics21.org/algebraic-general-topology.html"Algebraic General Topology" is certainly a beautiful and interesting theory and I even hope to receive Abel Prize for that:
Hehe… from http://math.ucr.edu/home/baez/crackpot.html:

I suppose the Abel prize will do, too.Comment by Scott Morrison — October 29, 2009 @ 11:37 pm | Reply
I might add that it's not really up to Terry and me to select a project. If you want to start a project then you can. As the other replies above make clear, the main necessary condition for it to be successful is that you should attract the interest of other mathematicians. I think the best way of doing that is to give a more detailed post in which you say exactly what the project would be and what you don't know how to do at the moment. If you have thought hard about the problems already, then you should be able to write an account that takes the reader to the point where you don't know how to continue. Often a precisely posed problem that "ought to be doable" is exactly the hook that is needed for another mathematician to be interested. Have you got some of those?
If you do produce a detailed post, I will be happy to publicize it on my blog, and also on this blog.
Dear Gowers, I'm now busy. (I work as a programmer.) When I will have free time I will write a longer explanation about "complementive filters are a complete lattice" problem
I've chosen it from the three problems because:
1) I feel it more important than two other problems, and there are other important problems to prove which it may be used (if true).
2) I can think more about possible ways to attack this problem than the two other.-
Trying to write an exposition on the "complementive filters are a complete lattice" problem, I was going to write a proof of its certain special case. Trying to write this I noticed that I stumble over an open problem even in this special seemingly simple case.
This is the problem over which I stumbled:
So I will attempt to settle this littler problem before going to the exposition of the original problem:
If the little problem over which I stumbled appears to be difficult also, I may offer it for a separate polymath project.
Oh, well. I already solved this "little problem". Sorry for my comment in haste that it was unsolved.
The solution:
http://portonmath.wordpress.com/2009/10/31/principal-filters-are-center-solved/To write a longer explanation of the "complementive filters are a complete lattice" conjecture remains my priority:
Dear Gowers,
I wrote a longer exposition about "complementive filters are a complete lattice" problem:
I'm not sure whether it is in the state ready to be publicized. You may read it in order to test whether this my writing is understandable.
Also it contains a very short reference to the problem about coinciding quasidifference and second quasidifference. Should I write a longer explanation about that problem to attract more people? Or it is OK to just mention this problem because it is not the problem we are solving now?
Please say how well I wrote this and publicize if it is OK.
Dear Gowers,
I updated http://portonmath.wordpress.com/2009/11/02/exposition-complementive-filters/
adding there two new formulas as conjectures in the "Intersection with a set" subsection.It is all I know about the "complementive filters are complete lattice" conjecture. I think this may be a starting point for other mathematicians who may be interested (personally I deem this an interesting problem).
I think that is does not extensively tells about "coinciding quasidifference and second quasidifference" is not a big defect, as it is an other problem and it may be not discussed here. Wiki reference where they may look for greater details on the full current state of that problem is available in this my exposition.
I ask you to publicize this my conjecture to be known for wider cycles of mathematicians. My blog visits are pretty low but this conjecture deserves wider attention.
I solved a problem which earlier proposed for one of polymath projects.
The problem was at
http://portonmath.wordpress.com/2009/11/29/co-separability/See also this comment.
http://portonmath.wordpress.com/2009/11/29/co-separability/#comment-37How to exclude the problem from the list of polymath proposals?
I'm interested in the platform for polymath. Clearly wordpress + wiki is not the desired model.
Are there any discussions of list of features one want from the platform?
Is it also possible to get financial support from any institution to develop such platform?
I hope they have something betetr in the works but if that thing even has the whiff of Wave in it nobody will go near it. We're still healing from that heavy Wave burn. I thought Wave was supposed to be the new Universal Inbox for all Google stuff. Great idea. Would've loved it. Poor execution killed it, I guess
Why the last Terrence Tao's proposal triggered 19 comment and my proposal triggered zero comments (despite of my proposal is online a longer time)? Is it just because Terry is more famous than me? Your mileage may vary but my question seems more interesting that Tao's.
The polymathprojects.org site is poorly designed: On the homepage http://polymathprojects.org the image from "IAS Institute Letter for fall 2010″ (with the title in it: "Mathematical Advances: Lone or Massively Collaborative Endeavors" overrides with "Top Posts" in the right sidebar. This is despite of I have a 1280 pixels wide screen. I use Firefox for Linux.
[Corrected, thanks – T.]
I've created Math Research Trends Wiki, a wiki with the motto "research in the middle" for sharing research ideas, stuff related to open problems, etc. (the rules are not yet exactly formulated, but I added several example entries which signify which stuff may be shared on this wiki). Please publicize announcements of this new wiki in your blogs.

I've created a site where anyone may list his projects and anyone may mark which projects he is going to participate. Projects are organized into a tree. The site supports LaTeX and has "Mathematics" section: http://theses.portonvictor.org/node/2
I have posted several pages on my math research project: http://theses.portonvictor.org/node/4 – feel free to add yours also.
The site is ideal for posting possible theses topics for students as well as cutting edge research for math persons. For a topic a user may mark himself as an adviser, which could help students.
Among mathematics this site is also going to list open source software proposals and whatever general utility projects.
Well, this project needs its own domain name. Please somebody donate a domain and help with hosting.
15. Collaborative Large-Scale Problem-Solving — Collaboration Platform/Community With Similar Goals to Polymath
I'm working on a project called Collaborating Minds, which has a lot in common with the Polymath project. Our founders followed the original Polymath project in 2009, and it shaped a lot of their thinking on online collaboration. (You can read some of their thoughts on the Polymath project and Michael Nielsen's book here: http://www.cminds.net/2013/10/reinventing-discovery-and-collaborating-minds/)
Collaborating Minds is trying to do two things: 1) create a cloud-based platform that facilitates group problem-solving, and 2) foster a community of collaborative problem-solvers, people who who like to help and be helped, and who are willing to offer their perspective on a wide range of problems. To get a sense of what we're doing, you can watch a short video here: http://www.cminds.net/2013/08/a-two-minute-and-12-second-introduction-to-collaborating-minds/
It would be great to hear from people who have been though Polymath and get your feedback on our model — if you think the community needs to come with the platform, any suggestions for fostering group collaboration online, or pitfalls to avoid. You can also email me at email@example.com if you prefer. Thanks in advance and let me know if there's more information that I can provide as well!
Hello Polymath. I hope you don't mind me using this as a helpline. I have a very simple question that I hope someone here will be able to answer. I've tried elsewhere but not found a clear answer yet. Please note that I am NOT a mathematician, not even an amateur. Just a student of the primes. So please excuse any clumsiness in my words. I'm sure there's a better way to say this,.
I think I can show that relative to the set of all primes up to N, where N is any finite number, there is an infinite quantity of consecutive twin primes. (Adjacent pairs of twin primes). Or, to put it another way, that no finite amount of prime factors is sufficient to guarantee that there are no more consecutive pairs of twins.
My question is: Would this be trivial or interesting? I keep changing my mind, and don't have the skills to be sure either way. Perhaps it's easy to show this and it's been done a thousand times. I'd be grateful if someone can set me straight. Thank you.
If there is better place to discuss this I'll happily move there.
. -
this message is for people who's interesting in PRIME numbers finding algorithm , i have developed an algorithm that can find all the consecutive impair composite numbers in a given interval , we can conclude that all impairs number remaing are prime,this algorithm gives the consecutive impairs composite and then we can conclude the twin prime numbers in any interval , the algorithm has been tested and it's so efficient.i wanted to type -
Good information. Lucky me I recently found your blog by chance (stumbleupon).
I have saved it for later!Comment by smooth jazz chomikuj — March 18, 2015 @ 11:41 am | Reply
Hi I am not a mathematician but while solving some mathematics, I came up with this problem of trace minimization..
The problem is as follows:
$\displaystyle\min_{V}$ trace(**$V^TH^T\Phi HV$**)$\\$ s.t. $V^TV=I_d$ when $H$ is some arbitrary matrix of size $N \times M$, full column rank matrix, $V$ is a $M \times d$ matrix and $\Phi$ is $N \times N $ symmetric and positive semidefinite matrix.When $H$ is known, the solution is given by the eigenvectors corresponding to $d$ minimum eigenvalues of $ H^T\Phi H$.
Are there any ways or techniques or ideas already solved on this in the absence of $H$? The problem may sound simple to some of you but I am sorry about that.
Thank you for your suggestions and information about the existing techniques.

Keywords: [BASF] [carbon capture] [CO2] [CCS] [emissions]
Edited by Hydrocarbon Processing For 40 years, BASF the worlds largest chemical producer says it has been at the forefront of gas treatment innovation. Today, with climate-change regulations on the rise, the focus has turned to making carbon capture and storage (CCS) commercially viable.
In 1971, BASF initially applied newly-developed technology based on activated methyl diethanolamine to remove carbon dioxide (CO2) from synthesis gas to produce ammonia, a crucial starting material for fertilizer. The facility, which is still in operation, is located at the Ludwigshafen, Germany.
In 2012, almost 300 plants worldwide use BASFs knowhow to remove acid gases such as CO2 and hydrogen sulfide (H2S) from various types of process gases. Recently, BASF began marketing its combined gas-treating technology, chemical and technical service offerings under the Oase brand.
With climate change becoming an increasing concern globally, BASF says it is actively leveraging its expertise to become a leading contender in the race to make carbon capture and storage (CCS) commercially viable. Over the years, BASFs portfolio has continuously expanded. Beyond extensive offerings in technology and gas-treating chemicals, the company offers additional technical support services, such as customized on-site training of personnel.
Europe and North America, as well as Australia and parts of Asia, are spending heavily on developing new, more efficient technologies for harnessing solar- and wind power to substitute fossil fuels. But many experts believe that coal will continue to be one of the pillars of the worlds energy supply for several decades to come.
To bridge the potential energy gap looming in some countries, new coal power stations undoubtedly will be built. This means that energy providers as well as technology suppliers will face a challenge on how to meet the ever more stringent national and international standards for emissions control in an efficient and affordable manner while working to develop more technologically advanced solutions.
The framework for cleaning greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from coal-fired power plants is now being put into place. The European Union (EU) is committed to reduce CO2 emissions by as much as 20% up to 2020 compared with 1990 and is prepared to raise this commitment to 30% if other industrialised nations agree to follow suit.
The Australian government in 2008 created a Global Carbon Capture and Storage Institute and has committed A$100 million a year in funding to accelerate development of technologies to curb GHG emissions.
As coal is expected to dominate Indias fuel mix for another 20 years, its government for some time has been exploring development of cleaner technologies.
The US, too, has awakened to the need to act on emissions. In August 2010, the Interagency Task Force on Carbon Capture and Storage delivered a series of recommendations to President Barack Obama on how to overcome barriers to widespread, cost-effective deployment of CCS within 10 years. The report concluded that this technology can play an important role in domestic GHG emissions reduction while preserving the option of using coal and other abundant domestic fossil energy resources.
There are many potential routes to minimizing the impact of GHG on climate. BASF says it is currently tapping its technology resources to participate, alongside other companies, in a number of pilot projects in Europe and the US.
Closest to its home base, BASF is a partner in a pilot project steered by RWE Power at the German energy providers Coal Innovation Center in Niederaussem, Germany, near Cologne. The object is to test highly energy-efficient and oxygen-stable solvents for removing CO2 from bituminous coal emissions.
BASF has developed an improved scrubbing process based on new chemical solvents it has developed to capture CO2, and already has demonstrated that energy input can be slashed by about 20%, according to the company.
Altogether, RWE is spending around 9 million on the development project. The German federal government contributed about 4 million to the cost of the pilot plant, which was built and engineered by Munich, Germany-based international gases group Linde and captures around eight tons per day of CO2, equivalent to a separation efficiency of 90% for the flue gas processed.
BASF and Linde have been testing the CO2 capture technology at Niederaussem since 2009. According to Dr. Andreas Northemann, business manager, global gas treatment in BASFs intermediates division, the improved solvents feature clearly superior oxygen stability, which reduces solvent consumption significantly.
The technology should allow more than 90% of the process gas from a power plant to be captured for sequestration underground or used for chemical transformation into fertilisers, for example, he says.
The two German technology giants are now working on solutions for demonstration plants the first are due on stream in 2015 as well as large-scale power plants. CO2 capture is expected to be used commercially in coal-fired power stations by 2020.
In the future, BASF and Linde-KCA-Dresden GmbH (LKCA), a subsidiary of the Munich group, also plan to jointly market licenses and plants for the capture technology. In the Middle East, for example, demand for purified CO2 is increasing, in particular to raise yields in crude oil production (by means of enhanced oil recovery) and in urea production.
In Spain, a special BASF gas treatment technology- similar to the purification of syngas - is being used at the Integrated Gasification Combined Cycle (IGCC) power plant of ELCOGAS in Puertollano that is planned to capture about 35,000 tpy of gas. The plant, already in commercial-scale operation, is also being used for demonstration purposes. It is expected to provide a wealth of information relating to the viability of the IGCC concept, which differs from the post-combustion capture concept.
Across the Atlantic Ocean, the German chemical group and its US subsidiary BASF Corp. have joined forces with RTI International a high-tech think tank based in Research Triangle Park in North Carolina to develop second-generation capture technology. The project is being supported in part by a $2 million grant from the US Department of Energy.
The partners will look into novel non-aqueous solvent systems that can be recycled. The aim is to find a water free capture process that could use 40% less energy than conventional amine-based processes.
Through the pooling of RTIs engineering and research capabilities with BASFs technical and commercial expertise in gas treatment, the aim is to clear a path for rapid commercialization of the carbon capture technology and thus enable cost-competitive clean energy production from coal-fired power plants.
In Japan, BASF has linked up with local companies JGC and INPEX to perform demonstration tests with a new technology for effectively capturing and recovering CO2 contained in natural gas. The tests were started in August 2010 at INPEXs Koshijihara natural gas plant in Nagaoka City, Niigata prefecture.
To facilitate removal of the GHG, JGC and BASF in 2004 began jointly developing the new CO2 capture process called High Pressure Acid Gas Capture Technology (HiPACT). According to BASF, this process shows a significantly higher CO2 absorption, compared with existing processes, and is capable of regenerating the solvent under high-pressure conditions. An important milestone will be to transfer the new technology to an operating gas processing plant.
HiPACT is claimed to reduce overall power consumption in the facility while also lowering investment costs. More importantly, perhaps, because the gas is released from the solvent at well above atmospheric pressure, BASF says there is a significant reduction in the amount of energy required if CO2 is used in high-pressure applications such as chemical synthesis or is sequestered underground.
Building on the test results, JGC and BASF plan to commercialize the HiPACT technology in all relevant sectors, in particular natural gas projects with CO2 reinjection.

A searchable database of project activity in the global hydrocarbon processing industry
Engineers and designers are highly skilled individuals. Forcing them to enter design changes using tables, forms and spreadsheets is unproductive and uneconomical, and it increases the likelihood of human error—this is the way that most instrumentation software systems currently work. For too long, software vendors have denied engineers and designers the simple practicality of a graphical visual engineering interface with "drag and drop" capability and inbuilt intelligence, ensuring changes are automatically replicated into all the associated data and databases.
Will previously-planned downstream investments be cut back in 2015 due to lower global oil prices?
Yes 59%
No 12%
Depends how long current prices last 30%

Girl, girl, BOY!!!
We're so delighted we don't even mind that the chauvinists will be delighted, too.
Groundhog is a boy.
Two important housekeeping notes:
1) Yes, there will be a name change. "The Not-Ever-Still Life." Like it? But I'm not making the switch until he's actually here. Let's not prematurely shortchange The Reign of the Girls. They are the reason I began blogging, after all. (The URL will stay the same.)
2) We never talked with the girls about any of the scary medical issues we were facing, so we certainly didn't tell them about the extra medical testing. Therefore, they don't know that we hold this bit of information. E has been asking since about one second after we told her about the pregnancy if it's a boy or a girl, and how do we find out, and when. So for a very long time we've been promising her that she could join us at the 20-week sonogram for the big reveal. She's very excited to witness that moment and regularly asks if it's time yet. I still need to have a sonogram to verify that the baby is growing at appropriate rates, so E will still accompany us. The reveal will be for her benefit. And if you ruin this surprise for her I will haunt you.
For the past few days I've been non-stop thinking the strangest thought I've ever thought:

12 June – 6 September 2015
What image represents Europe? The fall of the Berlin Wall, perhaps, and the unification of Eastern and Western Europe after four decades of division along ideological lines? The reconstruction and the economic miracle following the disaster of the Second World War? Universal human rights and a political consensus among Europeans based on freedom and democracy? Or football championships and the Eurovision Song Contest? Not since Antiquity has a single image stood for Europe, and any that purports to do so can only be a fragment. Europe is a multifaceted mosaic that, despite tensions beneath the surface, is no longer at risk of breaking apart.
In 1924 Ernst Ludwig Kirchner posed the question: 'A unified Europe would be the end of wars and it will come, but when?' This exhibition sets out to chart the various forms in which society's ongoing desire for a peaceful Europe has been depicted through the history of ideas. It takes in atmospheric themes such as the delineation and dissolution of frontiers, landscape as a factor in the construction of identity, the development of democracy, labour and mobility.
The most comprehensive art exhibition on Europe in Switzerland since 1991 comprises some 100 works by 50 artists from all parts of the continent, in the media of painting, photography, video and installation. The artists represented include Kader Attia, Marc Bauer, Arnold Böcklin, Herbert Brandl, Honoré Daumier, Fischli/Weiss, Dani Gal, Ferdinand Hodler, Thomas Imbach, Anna Jermolaewa, Ilya Kabakov, Nikita Kadan, Bouchra Khalili, Paul Klee, Daniel Knorr, Christian Philipp Müller and Nives Widauer.
and by the Dr. Georg and Josi Guggenheim Foundation, the Erna and Curt Burgauer Foundation, Ars Rhenia, the foundation for the transregional promotion of art and culture, the Institut français and by Uniqa Fine Art Insurance Switzerland. The wall colours are sponsored by Farrow & Ball.

I aint anti-drm, I am anti-stupid-drm
SecuROM,StarForce... are stupid DRM, VALVE,StarDock DRM isn't I am just hoping LGP isn't stupid-drm simply because even though "linux" has made leaps and bounds to become user-friendly It still needs to bridge the "but I have a windows licence" and "it doesn't do anything different" (excuses I am seeing now after having a linux box at work for months for ppl to just use). THUS linux is still for the tech-saavy, the same kinda ppl that if push came to the shuv would know exactly where to go to bypass DRM. THUS LGP implementation of DRM damb well better not piss linux users off because if it does torrent sites will be flooded with hack methods very quickly
anyway X3 gone gold \o/

Man, I just purchased Red Cliff and another RTK Movie and then I come on here and read this! I guess I'll have to wait a month or so to purchase this game now. Also, the controls are difficult, no doubt about that, but if you put a little effort into them they will become natural.
I can't believe it ;-)
Gold means its safe for me to give Tuxgames/LGP my money! I'm still waiting for LGPs other games to go gold and a website redesign.
The X3 controls can be completely reconfigured. (Plus, most non-flight options can be activated using the in-game menus.)
Never the less, be advised that X3 is not an ordinary point-and-shoot space shooter. It has it's own economy; fleet management; battle groups; factories; complexes; automated agents; etc.
While I do enjoy taking my M2 Titan group for a ride in a Xeon sector (I'm one of the lucky Beta testers who spent the last 5 months testing this game ), the empire building aspect of this game is far more interesting. (~900 million credits and counting)

Will X3 have annoying DRM ?? Cause if it does, then its a no-sale from me.
gilboa, since you were on the betas, do you know if it's possible to increase the font size? The controls aren't really a problem in my case, if only one didn't have to squint at the screen when using a 1920x1200 on a 24'.
It's not any showstoper, my brother has the Windows version and after a while you learn the interface by heart and don't need to read, but IMHO bigger font size would make the game look far easier for newbies. The controls themselves aren't that bad, you just need the manual (I guess most people complaining on game forums didn't have a manual... or forgot they had one...)
Congrats to LGP and to the developers that ported this game!
For the DRM discussion: Michael has done a good job mentioning it (even if he didn't have too since he covered the subject already) and even links to the article (and then the forum thread where we can continue this discussion). It's a service for US users so we have all the information, I'm sure it's not an invite to spoil this thread with rehashed opinions. I'm in the same opinions as most are about this, but here isn't the place. It's not constructive here, it won't help anybody's agenda to waste this thread with it.
This Forum has an Edit function, so after you've pondered your (not completely out of topic, but disgraceful at this time) comment, you might be of the opinion that it's worth changing it. Please.
don't be that stubborn! not every DRM system have the same consequences!
DRM on music or on BluRay means that EVEN if you buy that media it's illegal to play it with every program you want (if the program is able to do so).
What means DRM on X3? Does the protection prevent installing or playing the game on any linux system? NO - it's annoying, but nothing more.
Everyone should see the very clear differences between the media tycoons in Hollywood or Japan, who always strangles the consumer and the guys on LGP who are NOT in the convenient position to control the market - they want to safe their business.
As long as the DRM of LGP will guarantee the viability of the company - AND doesn't restrict the product in any technical aspects - I'll accept it to prevent a second LOKI experience.
Let's hope we'll get full reviews on Linux magazines & websites. This game deserves the best publicity people can give it, so it might be a good idea to contact the ones you're reading and tell them you'd consider the lack of any review as a big downfall on their part After all, it's "only" the best game on Linux (best gfx both technically and design, best play time with hundred of hours in perspective, best overall interest, best everything)!
Just opened a thread for Full Circle, we'll see how it goes http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=978681 if there's Ubuntu users that have been playing the beta maybe they could give a hand.

Endometriosis is a problem with the lining of the uterus (womb). The lining is called the endometrium. Normally, when you have your menstrual period every month, the lining will come out in the menstrual flow through the vagina.
Endometrial tissue is normally found only inside of the uterine cavity. However, endometriosis refers to the presence of the endometrial tissue outside of the uterus. The most common sites include: the ovaries; the outside surface of the uterus; the fallopian tubes; ligaments of the pelvis; and the spaces between the rectum, bladder, and uterus. Less commonly the rectum, bladder, intestine, and appendix may be involved. Rarely, deposits (or implants) of endometrial tissue may be found in the lung, arm, thigh, and skin far away from the reproductive tract.
This misplaced endometrial tissue responds to the monthly cycles of reproductive hormones. It swells, breaks down, bleeds, and causes an inflammatory reaction. Whereas during the normal menstrual flow the blood exits through the vagina, there is no exit when this tissue is in other locations outside of the uterus. The pain is increased during the latter part of the menstrual cycle and the beginning of menses.
In the United States, endometriosis affects an estimated 10%-20% of women of reproductive age. Although endometriosis may occur at any age, it is most commonly seen between the ages of 25 and 40.
The exact cause of endometriosis is unknown. Some possible considerations include:
- Menstrual blood and endometrial tissue flows backward through the fallopian tubes instead of forward through the vagina and out of the body.
- The immune system does not destroy this misplaced tissue in the body and allows the tissue to implant and develop in unusual places in the body. This causes endometriosis.
- The lymph (glands) and/or blood systems carry endometrial cells from the uterus to other areas of the body.
- Genetic and environmental susceptibility.
Endometriosis is a major factor in female infertility. In fact, about 30%-45% of all women who are being treated for infertility have evidence of endometriosis.
What are the risk factors for endometriosis?What are the symptoms of endometriosis?How is endometriosis diagnosed?What are the treatments for endometriosis?Are there screening tests for endometriosis?How can I reduce my risk of endometriosis?What questions should I ask my doctor?What is it like to live with endometriosis?Where can I get more information about endometriosis?

Zero Frizz Extra Strength Hair Serum
DianaChicago IllinoisCant Live Without It!!!!!!!!My hair is the most damaged hair with dye, highlights, styling products,etc! It has made my hair look and feel like healthy hair!! No other product did what this one did to my fried hair! It goes everywhere with me!! I would go nuts without it!!!posted Oct 2, 2007Link to this post
Susan RQueens, New YorkHairCurly HairLost In Outer Space Until I Found This Product!this is the best product i have ever used! i bought this in rite aid on a whim. my sister puts a strong serum for her daughters curly hair and i figured that it wouldnt be much difference if i bought a totally different brand. i am so glad i did. i have shoulder length, relaxed, frizzy and curly hair. alot of times i would put my hair in a bun and would leave that hairstyle on forever. now, i am so grateful for this product, that i am able to wear my hair my out and play with different hairstyles. i almost lost my mind when rite aid said that they didnt sell it anymore. i was seconds away from slitting my wrists! (Ok that was a little much). but i was in bad shape, you guys. i logged on and here i am. i will make sure to get this in bulk now. thatll be my motto from now on. if the stuff is good, get in threes or fours! thanks for reading! have an awesome day!posted Sep 13, 2007Link to this post
Lori WhiteGood ProductThis product does a good job of controlling frizz. It is a little heavy/oily and can make your hair look greasy if you use too much. I find it difficult to spread throughout my hair because it is so thick but once I get it evenly distributed it works very well. It doesnt dry out the hair but on the contrary makes it very soft and healthy. It doesnt completely control my brittle gray hair but it helps.posted Sep 6, 2007Link to this post

NicoleJamestown, NYHairCurly HairMedium HairGreat Product!!!I bought this product at walmart, b/c it was on sale! I am soooo glad I got it! I use it daily. I have curly/normal/shoulder length/color treated hair. It always keeps my hair from becoming frizzy, wheather I straighten it with a flat iron or let it air dry. This is a great product that I intend to continue to use!posted Aug 26, 2007Link to this post
AnonymousHairChemically Treated HairPleasantly Surprised!figured it was just like all the rest, so i had low expectations. tried it today. it is a very humid day and didnt think anything could work. it not only gave my very coarse, frizzy, thick hair a smooth texture and shine, but i got compliments!posted Aug 24, 2007Link to this post

Goldi_locksCanadaGreatest Serum On EarthLove this serum!! At first, I did not think a drugstore product would work like this! It is not too greasy/oily and is not loaded with harsh drying alcohol. It defines my curls beautifully, as well as improving the condition of my hair. Zero Frizz serum is also similarly fantastic when i blow dry my hair straight. In all, this serum tops them all-and believe me Ive tried a zillion of them, both high end and lower-end. Zero Frizz outnumbers them. That said, I am glad Folica still carries this product, as I cannot find it in drugstores here in Canada anymore.posted Jun 23, 2007Link to this post

Ad In So CaOrande County CAZero Frizz Hair SerumI have very coarse, curly hair that is highlighted. I started using this product years ago and then suddenly could not find it on the shelves. I got to the point that I would randomly stop at drug stores to see if they had it, and if so, I would stock up. I have not been able to find it in the stores for over a year and randomly check on line. Today I found it, and bought 3 to last me until the holidays. I cant say enough great things about this product - it is the ONLY product that works this well in smoothing my crazy curly hair so I can wear it straight without the use of a flattening iron!posted Mar 2, 2007Link to this post

Core i5 2500K has no Hyper Threading. It's a pure 4-core/4-thread part.
Phoronix: Intel Core i3 2120
Since the January launch of Intel's Sandy Bridge processors, there have been countless articles on Phoronix about Sandy Bridge under Linux. Initially detailing the troubled experience of getting the integrated graphics working but then to a point of nirvana with the open-source Intel Linux graphics driver working well and a continual stream of performance optimizations and other enhancements since that point. Sandy Bridge under Linux is now great and it is to be loved. It's also looking like Ivy Bridge on Linux will be a success, but we're still a couple months out until that hardware is released to the public. Until then, we are looking at a few more Sandy Bridge processors. In this review, for those not at XDC2011 Chicago this week, is a look at the Linux performance of the Intel Core i3 2120.
Core i5 2500K has no Hyper Threading. It's a pure 4-core/4-thread part.
He's right : http://ark.intel.com/products/52210/...ache-3_30-GHz)
Also, both the Intel® Core i3 2120 and the Intel® Core i3-2100 Processor have only two cores. Not four. (http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?pag...ei3_2120&num=3 on the open benchmarking.org image) http://ark.intel.com/products/53426/...ache-3_30-GHz) http://ark.intel.com/products/53422/...ache-3_10-GHz)
The 3rd gen i processors are likely to be up to six months away. Not a couple of months.
If the focus of this article is on graphics then why compare hd 3000 and hd 2000 without making that distinction? Not all Sandybridge cpus share the same gpu type.
The other thing that strikes me is that you are benchmarking the i3 which is not aimed at the kind of people who are interested in performance. It is a budget offering.
Why not benchmark the top end i7 against the i5 2500k instead? But ignore the graphics results as they are largely irrelevant due to the fact that they will ultimately be very similar or the same.
This whole article just seems like a poorly constructed advert for Intel processors and offers some very incorrect information. Although probably by accident.
Yes, i5 2500K has 4 cores/4 threads.
BUT i3-2100 and i3-2120 both have 2 cores/4 threads (thanks to Heaper-Threading). That's why in some tasks, the 2100 can quite well compete with the 2500.
Michael, how about VA-API? Is this processor enough for htpc with any video formats, or does it still need a discrete nvidia for some hd formats?
140$ is a budget offering? Where do you live :P
I wish you would not only show the power usage under load, but the power usage with the system ad idle. Many of use run servers that spend most of their time not doing much, and the power usage there is much more important to us.
Nah for lga1155 there are under 100 pentiums and under 50 celerons. Those are real intel budget processors:
And for hint Celeron G540 is much more powerful that amd athlon X2 250(which I have)...
It looks like at the very end of the article, you realize that you comparison-benchmarked it against the wrong thing. How about against other $130 CPUs? AnonymousCoward's "If you want real budget offering you buy AMD of course" statement is exactly what you should have explored, IMHO.The Intel Core i5 2500K carries a retail price of around $220 USD, which is about $90 USD more than the Core i3 2120,

FayeCaliforniaHairMedium BrownColor Treated HairFine or Thin HairGreat!I love Super Million Hair! I found out I had a thyroid problem and one of
the side effects was hair loss. The top of my hair was thinning so much
that I started investigating what my options were. I found Super Million Hair
and if you get the right color no one will ever know you have it in your hair.
It makes my hair look fuller and I have a part on one side which looks so
natural. "The color is the key". I had dark brown hair and used light brown Super Million and it was right for me. The dark brown color was almost black on me and didn't work. I have just added blonde highlights in my hair and I am using the dark blonde Super Million color and it looks great. This product has saved my life and looks.

ElizabethFredericksburg, VA USAPerhaps It's A Super Million Joke?I have been looking for something to perhaps supplement my DermMatch on occasion, but after trying this product, it is with DermMatch I will stay! Super Million Hair does Super Million nothing. I did exactly as the instructions specified, and it did not even stick properly to the hair on my head, but collected in an unattractive and very noticeable black band on my front hairline, no matter how carefully and evenly I sprinkled it. I followed it with the spray as well. My hair/head looked so bad that I washed my hair again rather than go out looking the way I did. The beneficiary of this was my bathroom sink, which received a lovely coating of Super Million Hair- then I had to not only wash my hair, but clean the sink as well! I am glad it works for some people, but to me it looked exceedingly unnatural and is a very inferior product. I plan on asking the people at Folica for a refund.

This product perfectly covers the thinned areas of my hair and gives an appearance of full coverage so that my tracks are not detectable. It doesnt take much and looks extremely natural. I couldnt be more pleased.posted Apr 16, 2008Link to this post
AnonymousLove It!!Great coverage, much better than Toppic, matches my hair color to perfection, fibers are much thinner than Toppic and it works wonders for covering the thinning hair line.posted Feb 8, 2008Link to this post

SylviaHertfordshire, EnglandSuper Millon HairThis product saved the day for me. I purchased it for my wedding. My hair is very thick all over accept for round my hair line. Runs in the family we all have very thin hair lines. My hair dresser was putting my hair in extentions and leaving the front of my hair out, so we need to make my hair line look thinker for the photos. This product worked wonders and you couldnt tell! Highly recommend to anyone. Will use again and again for sure.posted Aug 28, 2007Link to this post
AnonymousMississippiBald No MoreThis product matches my gray hair perfectly. No one can tell I am wearing it although some have looked closely to see if they could. Although my hair is still thin, I dont LOOK bald any more. It stays where you put it until you wash it out. I love it and hope I never have to do without it.posted Aug 28, 2007Link to this post
BarbaraOregonSuper Million Hair...Started using this product last year, and notices how well it cover and it doesnt leave a grayish color like Toppik does. Justs make sure you use hair spray or the wind will blow it off..posted Jul 28, 2007Link to this post
BruceNew YorkHairFine or Thin HairWorks Very WellIts does not make you loose more hair. the guy that wrote that review would be loosing it regardless of the product usage. I like better than toppik it seams to have finer particles, definately get the spray to go with it. My hair looks so thick now. I have had 2 transplants and I use propecia, If you have dying, fine hair you should really consider propecia. it at the very least haults hair loss and brings limp hair back to lifeposted Jul 24, 2007Link to this post
