72145537 story Japan Looks To Distributed Control Theory To Manage Energy Market Deregulation 53 Posted by Soulskill on Wednesday April 22, 2015 @08:13AM from the what-could-possibly-go-wrong dept. Hallie Siegel writes: Japan's power industry is currently centralized, but it aims to deregulate by around 2020. Coupled with this major structural market change, the expansion of thermal, nuclear and renewable power generation will place additional demands on the management of the country's energy market. Researchers from the Namerikawa lab at Keio University are working with control engineers, power engineers and economists to designing mechanical and control algorithms that can manage this large-scale problem.
72131123 story Maglev Train Exceeds 600km/h For World Record 189 Posted by Soulskill on Tuesday April 21, 2015 @03:14PM from the zoom-zoom dept. nojayuk writes: An experimental Japanese magnetic levitation train has reached a speed of 603 km/h, breaking the world speed record the same train set last week of 590 km/h. "Central Japan Railway (JR Central), which owns the trains, wants to introduce the service between Tokyo and the central city of Nagoya by 2027. The 280km journey would take only about 40 minutes, less than half the current time. However, passengers will not get to experience the maglev's record-breaking speeds because the company said its trains will operate at a maximum of 505km/h. In comparison, the fastest operating speed of a Japanese shinkansen, or "bullet train" is is 320km/h. ... Construction costs are estimated at nearly $100bn (£67bn) just for the stretch to Nagoya, with more than 80% of the route expected to go through costly tunnels, AFP news agency reports."
72082277 story ISS Could Be Fitted With Lasers To Shoot Down Space Junk 167 Posted by samzenpus on Monday April 20, 2015 @09:37AM from the point-and-shoot dept. An anonymous reader writes Japan's Riken research institute has suggested a new idea for dealing with space junk. They say a fiber optic laser mounted onto the International Space Station could blast debris out of the sky. From the article: "To combat the increasingly dense layer of dead satellites and miscellaneous space debris that are enshrouding our planet, no idea — nets, lassos, even ballistic gas clouds — seems too far-fetched to avoid. Now, an international team of researchers led by Japan's Riken research institute has put forward what may be the most ambitious plan to date. They propose blasting an estimated 3,000 tons of space junk out of orbit with a fiber optic laser mounted on the International Space Station."

71976401 story Scientists Locate Sunken, Radioactive Aircraft Carrier Off California Coast 193 Posted by Soulskill on Friday April 17, 2015 @01:01PM from the what-you-leave-behind dept. HughPickens.com writes: Aaron Kinney reports in the San Jose Mercury News that scientists have captured the first clear images of the USS Independence, a radioactivity-polluted World War II aircraft carrier that rests on the ocean floor 30 miles off the coast of Half Moon Bay. The Independence saw combat at Wake Island and other decisive battles against Japan in 1944 and 1945 and was later blasted with radiation in two South Pacific nuclear tests. Assigned as a target vessel for the Operation Crossroads atomic bomb tests, she was placed within one-half-mile of ground zero and was engulfed in a fireball and heavily damaged during the 1946 nuclear weapons tests at Bikini Atoll. The veteran ship did not sink, however (though her funnels and island were crumpled by the blast), and after taking part in another explosion on 25 July, the highly radioactive hull was later taken to Pearl Harbor and San Francisco for further tests and was finally scuttled off the coast of San Francisco, California, on 29 January 1951. "This ship is an evocative artifact of the dawn of the atomic age, when we began to learn the nature of the genie we'd uncorked from the bottle," says James Delgado. "It speaks to the 'Greatest Generation' — people's fathers, grandfathers, uncles and brothers who served on these ships, who flew off those decks and what they did to turn the tide in the Pacific war." Delgado says he doesn't know how many drums of radioactive material are buried within the ship — perhaps a few hundred. But he is doubtful that they pose any health or environmental risk. The barrels were filled with concrete and sealed in the ship's engine and boiler rooms, which were protected by thick walls of steel. The carrier itself was clearly "hot" when it went down and and it was packed full of fresh fission products and other radiological waste at the time it sank. The Independence was scuttled in what is now the Gulf of the Farallones sanctuary, a haven for wildlife, from white sharks to elephant seals and whales. Despite its history as a dumping ground Richard Charter says the radioactive waste is a relic of a dark age before the enviornmental movement took hold. "It's just one of those things that humans rather stupidly did in the past that we can't retroactively fix.""

Both companies have approved the transaction, though now they must wait for regulatory approval. They said they expect the deal to close in the first half of 2016. The combined company is expected to become the world's second-largest telecom equipment manufacturer behind Ericsson of Sweden, with global revenues totaling $27 billion and operations spread across Asia, Europe and North America. The companies are betting that, by joining forces, they can better compete against Chinese and European rivals bidding to provide telecom hardware and software to the world's largest carriers, including AT&T and Verizon in the United States, Vodafone and Orange in Europe, and SoftBank in Japan. ... Analysts say that Nokia has progressively focused on its equipment unit, which now represents roughly 85 percent of the company's annual revenue. On Wednesday, Nokia confirmed that it had put its digital maps business — a competitor for Google Maps — up for sale.

An anonymous reader writes with more bad news for the people still dealing with the Fukushima nuclear accident. "The ability to change shape hasn't saved a robot probe from getting stuck inside a crippled Japanese nuclear reactor. Tokyo Electric Power will likely leave the probe inside the reactor housing at the Fukushima Dai-ichi complex north of Tokyo after it stopped moving. On Friday, the utility sent a robot for the first time into the primary containment vessel (PCV) of reactor No. 1 at the plant, which was heavily damaged by the 2011 earthquake and tsunami in northern Japan. 'The robot got stuck at a point two-thirds of its way inside the PCV and we are investigating the cause,' a Tokyo Electric spokesman said via email. The machine became stuck on Friday after traveling to 14 of 18 planned checkpoints."

What's more, it is infinitely adjustable, able to tell the time no matter where you are on Earth. Japan, Timbuktu, California, anywhere! This will change your life. Reality as you know it will never be the same." Clearly, this was an April fool's joke as anyone who reads more than just the headline would immediately guess. The problem is that Bloomberg's fast response team did not. The algos, on massive volume, spiked TSLA stock higher by nearly 1%.
71463725 story California Has Become the First State To Get Over 5% of Its Power From Solar 265 Posted by Soulskill on Wednesday April 01, 2015 @05:11AM from the ignore-the-next-group-of-stories-if-you-hate-fun dept. Lucas123 writes: While the rest of the nation's solar power generation hovers around 1%, California clocked in with a record 5% of power coming from utility-grade (1MW or more) solar power sources, according to a report from Mercom Capital Group and the Energy Information Administration. That's three times the next closest state, Arizona. At the same time, 22 states have yet to deploy even one utility-grade solar power plant, according to the Solar Energy Industry Association. Meanwhile, the rest of the world saw a 14% uptick in solar power installations in 2014 for a total of 54.5GW of capacity, and that figure is expected to grow even faster in 2015. While China still leads the world in new solar capacity, Japan and the U.S. come in as a close second and third, respectively. In the U.S. distributed solar and utility-grade solar installations are soaring as the solar investment tax credit (ITC) is set to expire next year. The U.S. is expected to deploy 8.5GW of new solar capacity in 2015, according to Mercom Capital Group.
71288169 story Japan To Build 250-Mile-Long, Four Storey-High Wall To Stop Tsunamis 197 Posted by samzenpus on Thursday March 26, 2015 @05:31AM from the no-wake-zone dept. An anonymous reader points out this daunting construction plan in Japan. "Japanese authorities have unveiled plans to build a giant 250-mile long sea barrier to protect its coastline from devastating tsunamis. According to the proposals, the £4.6bn ($6.8bn) barrier would reach 12.5m high in some places – stretching taller than a four storey building. It would be made out of cement – and actually be composed of a chain of smaller sea walls to make construction easier. The plan comes four years after a huge tsunami ravaged Japan's north-eastern coast."
71111057 story No Fuel In the Fukushima Reactor #1 234 Posted by timothy on Thursday March 19, 2015 @01:52PM from the oh-this-old-thing? dept. An anonymous reader writes To nobody's surprise, the Japanese press reports that a new way to look at the inside of one of the Fukushima 1 damaged reactors has shown the fuel is not in place. Engineers have not been able to develop a machine to directly see the exact location of the molten fuel, hampered by extremely high levels of radiation in and around the reactors, but a new scan technique using muons (details on the method in the media are missing) have shown the fuel is not in its place. While Tepco's speculation is that the fuel may be at the bottom of the reactor, it is a safe bet that at least some of it has burned through and has gone on to create an Uruguay syndrom.

Gox collapsed on Feb. 28, 2014, with liabilities of some ¥6.5 billion ($63.6 million), it said it was unable to account for some 850,000 bitcoins. Some 200,000 of them turned up in an old-format bitcoin wallet last March, bringing the tally of missing bitcoins to 650,000 (now worth about $180 million). In January, Japan's Yomiuri Shimbun newspaper, citing sources close to a Tokyo police probe of the MtGox collapse, reported that only 7,000 of the coins appear to have been taken by hackers, with the remainder stolen through a series of fraudulent transactions. But there's still no explanation of what happened to them, and no clear record of what happened on the exchange.
70569983 story Fighting Scams Targeting the Elderly With Old-School Tech 98 Posted by samzenpus on Friday February 27, 2015 @06:31AM from the going-back dept. itwbennett writes Sharp is launching a pair of landline phones designed to counter a growing form of fraud in Japan that preys upon the elderly. The 'ore ore' ('it's me, it's me') fraudsters pretend to be grandchildren in an emergency and convince their victims to send money, generally via ATM. Sharp's new phones are designed to alert seniors to the dangers of unknown callers. When potential victims receive that are not registered in the internal memory of Sharp's new phones, their LED bars glow red and the phones go into anti-scam mode. An automated message then tells the caller that the call is being recorded and asks for the caller to state his or her name before the call is answered.
70537939 story The Peculiar Economics of Developing New Antibiotics 245 Posted by samzenpus on Wednesday February 25, 2015 @05:40PM from the killing-bugs dept. HughPickens.com writes Every year at least two million people are infected with bacteria that can't be wiped out with antibiotics but the number of F.D.A.-approved antibiotics has decreased steadily in the past two decades. Now.Ezekiel J. Emanuel writes at the NYT that the problem with the development of new antibiotics is profitability. "There's no profit in it, and therefore the research has dried up, but meanwhile bacterial resistance has increased inexorably and there's still a lot of inappropriate use of antibiotics out there," says Ken Harvey. Unlike drugs for cholesterol or high blood pressure, or insulin for diabetes, which are taken every day for life, antibiotics tend to be given for a short time so profits have to be made on brief usage. "Even though antibiotics are lifesaving, they do not command a premium price in the marketplace," says Emanuel. "As a society we seem willing to pay $100,000 or more for cancer drugs that cure no one and at best add weeks or a few months to life. We are willing to pay tens of thousands of dollars for knee surgery that, at best, improves function but is not lifesaving. So why won't we pay $10,000 for a lifesaving antibiotic?" Emanuel says that we need to use prize money as an incentive. "What if the United States government — maybe in cooperation with the European Union and Japan — offered a $2 billion prize to the first five companies or academic centers that develop and get regulatory approval for a new class of antibiotics?" Because it costs at least $1 billion to develop a new drug, the prize money could provide a 100 percent return — even before sales. "From the government perspective, such a prize would be highly efficient: no payment for research that fizzles. Researchers win only with an approved product. Even if they generated just one new antibiotic class per year, the $2-billion-per-year payment would be a reasonable investment for a problem that costs the health care system $20 billion per year." Unless payers and governments are willing to provide favorable pricing for such a drug, the big companies are going to focus their R&D investments in areas like cancer, depression, and heart disease where the return-on-investments are much higher.
70489965 story Google Lunar XPrize Teams Partner For a 2016 SpaceX Moonshot 18 Posted by samzenpus on Monday February 23, 2015 @04:27PM from the working-together dept. An anonymous reader writes Two competing teams for the Google Lunar XPrize have announced that they are partnering for a mission to the moon in the second half of 2016. From the article: "The Google Lunar XPrize , a $30 million purse of prizes encouraging private teams to put lunar rovers on the moon, this morning took if not quite a giant leap, then at least a big step. Two of those teams, Pittsburgh-based Astrobotic and Japan-based Hakuto, signed on to share a rocket ride to the moon in late 2016. Hakuto, which developed a pair of rovers to explore the lunar surface, will hitch a ride on Astrobotic's lander, which plans to set down in Lacus Mortis, located in the northeastern portion of the moon. Once on the surface, both teams will deploy their rovers and go exploring. The first to cover 500 meters (around 550 yards) while broadcasting high-definition footage will take home the $20 million grand prize."
70293247 story Japan Now Has More Car Charging Points Than Gas Stations 215 Posted by Soulskill on Saturday February 14, 2015 @11:35AM from the plugging-their-new-toy dept. An anonymous reader writes: One of the biggest impediments to getting more electric cars on the road is the lack of charging infrastructure. When there's a gas station every other mile and you have to struggle to find a charging station, it's difficult to make a case for convenience and reliability. But this is changing, particularly in smaller, more technologically advanced countries like Japan. Nissan found that there are now about 40,000 charging points in Japan, compared to about 34,000 gas stations. Granted, not all of those charging spots are available to the public — some are in people's homes. But it shows the infrastructure is making real gains. Also, the article suggests an Airbnb-like system may crop up for people to utilize each other's charging stations. It adds, "As charging stations become more common, electric-car support services are also emerging. Open Charge Map, for example, operates an online listing of public charging points worldwide. A mobile app combines the data with GPS technology to guide drivers to the nearest site."

Big second half leads Warwick past Cocalico
By: BRUCE MORGAN Review Staff Writer, Staff Writer
The Warwick girls lacrosse team made a small adjustment in their draws at halftime on Tuesday against Cocalico.
It paid big rewards in the second half.
Capitalizing on more face-off wins and increased possession time, the Lady Warriors scored five unanswered goals following the intermission and never looked back, breaking open a 5-4 halftime lead and cruising to an 11-5 Section One win over Cocalico in Lititz.
Senior Alex White and Jess Talbot scored four goals apiece to fuel Warwick's attack. White, who leads the Lady Warriors with seven goals this spring, also chipped in with two assists. Cocalico junior Katelyn Costanza scored two of her team-high three goals in the opening half to help keep the Lady Eagles close, but it wasn't enough.
"Our defense did a good job in the first half," Warwick coach Eric Jeanes said, "but when you're on defense for 15, 17 minutes of the half, you're going to eventually give up some goals. So we just made a little change on the draw and we just started picking the ball up and keeping possession and getting good shots. It was just a better half."
As a result, Warwick (1-0 L-L, 1-1 overall) finally got a long-awaited win over Cocalico.
"As many (wins) as we can get is going to help us make Districts," Jeanes said, "because we're in a tough Section. If we can beat Cocalico and hopefully steal some more wins, that will put us in a decent spot for Districts. It was just a big confidence boost for us because these girls, I don't know if they have (beat Cocalico) at all. So it was a good win."
The Lady Eagles had advanced to the District Three championship game in each of the past two seasons, but this year's squad has some big shoes to fill with the Longstaff twins — Avery and Kari — now playing at Temple.
The current Cocalico team also has the challenge of playing in Section One, after moving up from Section Two, and Cocalico Coach Mary Beth Cardin thought that her girls just made too many errors against Warwick.
"Fundamentally from start to finish, not a good game," Cardin said. "Too many bad passes, too many dropped balls. Warwick played a nice game. All the errors we made, they capitalized on."
Of course, Warwick also capitalized on that adjustment in their draws. With White taking the face-offs and senior Meredith Michel on the circle, the Lady Eagles found themselves pinned in their own end of the field for the first several minutes of the second half.
"It's not that (Meredith) was doing a bad job (taking the draws), but when you put Mere on the circle, that gives us a little more help," Jeanes said. "She's really aggressive with getting the ball and Alex does do a good job on the draws too, so it just was a change that we tried and it worked."
Indeed. Talbot beat Cocalico keeper Lauren Marte (10 saves) with 39 seconds elapsed in the stanza and then Michel connected with 20:46 to go put Warwick up 7-4. Later, when Talbot scored back-to-back goals just 45 seconds apart, the Lady Warriors were in command with a 9-4 lead with 19:14 left. Goalkeeper Jess Cochis saved four of the five shots she faced in the half to keep the Lady Eagles at bay.
White had the hot hand for Warwick in the first half, going a perfect 4-of-4 on her shots, but when Cocalico denied her in the second half, Talbot responded, scoring all four of her goals after the break.
"(Alex) is really good at rolling the crease and they weren't letting her do that, so that opens up stuff for other people," Jeanes said. "Jess has a really great shot. She's got the hardest shot on the team. When she gets in a good spot, she can let it rip and it's hard to stop."
Talbot scored her fourth, and final, goal with 16:36 to go to make it 10-4, and then Costanza scored the Lady Eagles' only second-half tally just over a minute later. But Michel's second goal of the game, on an assist from White following a Cocalico turnover, completed the scoring with 5:07 remaining.
In the first half, the Lady Eagles battled back from one-goal deficits three times and Cortney Gensemer's tally with 9:40 left tied the game at 3-all. Gensemer also finished with two assists, including a helper on Costanza's goal which put the Lady Eagles up 4-3 with 3:24 left in the half. It would be Cocalico's only lead of the game.
"Katie and Cortney are two of our stronger offensive players," Cardin said, "they play year round on the club level, they've both been all-stars and that kind of stuff. They both have nice sticks and the ability to play all over and be effective for us in both ends of the field. So other girls certainly do look to them to get things going and its a little hard to reproduce Katie's speed too. She's just got unbelievable speed. But hopefully they'll all be putting it in the cage — then it will be easier for Katie and Cortney to (score) because the focus won't just be on them."
Overall, Cocalico outshot Warwick 11-8 in the half, but Lady Warriors' keeper Kelsea Hershey had six stops to help keep it close.
"Eleven shots and you put in four of them, that's not that great a percentage," Cardin said. "From my vantage point, Warwick always has a very strong defense which makes it hard for us offensively. I think their defense played really sound, which forced us to maybe take some shots that we wouldn't necessarily take normally."
That solid defense looked big when White scored two goals for Warwick in the final 1:41 of the half, giving them a 5-4 lead. It was a lead they never relinquished thanks to a dominant performance in the second half.
"We were kinda playing catch-up throughout the whole game," Cardin said. "It just was not a banner day for us." More CHS GIRLS, page B-5

The call for an eco-friendly Ganesh Chaturthi touched a crescendo this year with many groups showing the way.
Hyderabad is getting back to basics with a lot more enthusiasm this year. The persistent call to go green, bring home an eco-friendly Ganesha and break free of artificial colours and Plaster of Paris idols has struck an unmistakeable chord this year. Scour different areas of the city and you're sure to stumble upon makeshift stalls in different colonies stocking clay idols in different sizes.
Get your hands dirty
The last few days also witnessed a number of workshops where enthusiastic participants were taught to make their own clay Ganesha idols. G. Padma, project officer, National Green Corps, has seen the make-your-own-idol movement getting bigger each year. The National Green Corps, which has facilitated the participation of school children from 400 schools in the city through workshops from August 22 to 31, also reached out to other districts this year. "It's been a daunting task with very few volunteers at NGC but a very rewarding one at that. Some of the school children who were trained in the previous years didn't require fresh orientation. They helped by teaching other children. In addition to workshops, we also sent five-feet tall clay idols to 22 districts," she says.
Privately run institutions such as Treasure House and Kalanidhi Art School also conducted clay modelling workshops for children and adults, teaching them the nuances of creating idols with different textures of clay.
Elsewhere, the Society for Awareness and Vision on Environment (SAVE) has been doing its bit for the last few years. "Since 2006, we've seen the number of people wanting clay idols growing. This year has been particularly heart warming. As opposed to last year when we made 500 five-feet clay idols, we sensed the spurt in demand and made 1000 idols. All of them have been booked. We also made 15,000 idols of nine-inch height for domestic use, which we are giving away for Re. 1 each," says SAVE coordinator M. Surendranath. At the Hyderabad Metropolitan Development Authority nursery, Erragadda, SAVE volunteers urge people to immerse idols in their homes rather than lakes. "Our focus is on taking the eco-friendly message to people who want larger idols for pandals since those will be immersed in the lakes," adds Surendranath.
The AP Pollution Control Board has taken clay idol stalls (the idols priced Rs. 5 onwards) to every neighbourhood possible and Hyderabad Goes Green opened online bookings well in advance. For those who still find it tough to step out and buy clay idols, FM channel Radio City asked listeners to send Text Message to get an idol delivered home. Big FM, on its part, urged listeners to donate old newspapers to help the channel make an idol from paper pulp.
Want a dash of colour? Ethnic stores and a few stalls sell clay idols with natural dyes. As you soak in the festive cheer, take pride in going eco-friendly. That's the way the festival was meant to be, before we succumbed to Plaster of Paris and chemical dyes.

About The Vino Fondo- Big Shark Bicycle Company and Sugar Creek Winery are bringing the European cycling tradition of the Gran Fondo cycling experience to Missouri's hilliest wine country. A traditional pairing of challenging riding and a tour of some of Missouri's best and oldest vineyards. Experience the same roads and towns visited by the internationally acclaimed Tour of Missouri Professional Cycling Race and challenge yourself to complete one of three formidable routes of the 6th annual Missouri Vino Fondo.
The Vino Fondo is a fully supported, timed ride. Although not a race, all participants will receive two measures of their achievement: overall ride time AND their climbing time over the penultimate beast, the Schleusberg. We are offering three distance options, each tuned to maximize scenery and include as many of the regions challenging "topographic features" as we can find. We're crafty like that.
About Gran Fondo's- Also called Cyclosportif rides, Gran Fondo's are challenging rides that combine the best elements of epic recreational rides, some of the characteristics of a race and the visual experiences of the touring cyclist. The tradition of the Gran Fondo includes climbs and difficult riding conditions which we will going forward refer to as "features." The Gran Fondo experience is a true melting pot for cyclists of all abilities- with one goal, the satisfaction of achievement.
Early Bird Sign Up- Register before January 1st and lock in the 2014 Rate! While there is no maximum age limit, participants must be over 13 years of age. There are no refunds- however entry/race bib is transferable.
Before January 1st, 2015 | Individual $85/Tandem $150 |
January 1st though March 1st, 2015 | Individual $100/Tandem $160 |
March 2nd through May 15th, 2015 | Individual $110/Tandem $165 |
Race Day, May 16th, 2015 | Individual $120/Tandem $175 |
Friday, May 15th: From 12:00pm until 7:00pm, Big Shark Bicycle Company- LOOP, 6133 Delmar Blvd. St. Louis MO 63112
Race Day: From 6:00 AM until 8:00 AM
Winners of each category will receive a bottle of wine from the Sugar Creek Winery
We have three different routes. All of these will start/finish at the same point and include the majestic Schluesberg.

Based on feedback from last year's Vino Fondo we have made some changes to improve this year's Gran Fondo.
We have partnered with the coaches at the Pedal Hard Training Center on a program to get you up and over the Vino Fondo routes. If you are in need of a very effective training block to make up for the long, cold winter- please check out this program. Pedal Hard Vino Fondo Training Program Information
The New Vino Fondo Jersey is available pre event if ordered by March 1st (Post Event delivery after March 1st)! Click on the Jersey Style to order. Both Styles available in Men or Women's sizes.
A portion of the proceeds from the Vino Fondo will be donated to Pedal the Cause. Pedal the Cause is a St.Louis based Cancer Charity that donates 100% of their fundraising dollars to cancer research and treatments that are based in Missouri. They have raised almost ten million dollars for the cause over the past five years at their signature Fall cycling event. Find out more at www.pedalthecause.org
The image below is of Alberto Contador on the Schleusberg doing an earlier version of the Vino Fondo.
What to expect: Gran Fondo's are 'competitive recreational rides' and attract recreational cyclists looking to push themselves as well as racers looking for a great riding experience. The roads will NOT be closed and the ride and route will be open to traffic. All turns will be marked with signs and paint. Each cyclist will be given a cue sheet and maps of each route which are onlined (below). We encourage all participants obey traffic laws as well as be courteous to traffic and residents. Please adhere to the rules of the road and do not take unnecessary risks on descents and turns.
A Gran Fondo event is chip timed. Every rider will receive two times, total ride time and their time from the base of the Schleusberg to the summit. Riders of all abilities are encouraged to participate and push themselves.
In Europe the Gran Fondo attracts a very broad group of cyclist- professional racers, amateur racers, weekend warriors, new cyclists and cyclo-tourists. The compelling elements of a Gran Fondo are the scenery and challenge alongside terrific athlete support and a memorable route.
Rest stops will be spaced every 15 to 20 miles. Unlike a charity ride or other recreational rides the frequency of each rest stop is less than in a non-competitive event. Riders are encouraged to carry enough nutrition to manage themselves on route. We will make sure that there are several opportunities to take in enough nutrition to manage the day comfortably.
Rest stops are locates at:
The cycling friendly City of Warrenton has graciously offered up their City Hall Parking Lot (with restroom facilities) for the Mondo Fondo Warrenton Rest Stop.
The ride start will be Mass Start. Each rider will be chip timed. We will record rider times at the start, base of the Schleusberg and Summit of the Schleusberg. Timing chips are embedded in the bib number- do not fold or crumple numbers- otherwise timing chips may be compromised.
The Mondo Fondo 104 miles of some of the most beautiful riding in America, punctuated by some of the biggest and baddest climbs we can find. With over 5,042 feet of climbing and taking in many of the King of the Mountains points featured in the Tour of Missouri Professional Cycling Race, the Mondo Fondo route will be similar in difficulty to a true Tour stage. We recommend showing up prepared, this route is as challenging as it is scenic.Visiting some of the great towns of Marthasville, Treloar, Warrenton and Femme Osage. Multiple pitches as steep as 20%.
The Midi Fondo 75 miles, 3651 feet of climbing, taking in several of the same KOM points as the Mondo route, this route follows the Mondo route to Treloar, Missouri and then finishes back at Sugar Creek Winery after summitting the Schleursberg. The last 30 miles incorporates some of the best paved scenic roadways in Missouri.
The Mini Fondo 42 miles, 2,284 feet of climbing. Unlike many shorter ride options that can dilute the days challenge, this route cuts to the chase and provides each participant with several of the biggest and best climbs in the state! This route takes in the same roads and climbs along the historic Missouri State Road Race course and Tour of Missouri. (With a few more climbs...)

Negotiation Boot Camp
We find ourselves engaged in various kinds of negotiations every day, from trying to land a new account or win a promotion at work, to buying a house or a car, or bargaining down a cell phone bill, or settling a dispute with a friend or spouse. In this groundbreaking book, negotiation expert Ed Brodow shows us how to settle conflicts amicably to reach a win-win solution every time. Using the no-nonsense, results-oriented boot camp approach, Brodow drills listeners on the basic skills needed to master the art of negotiation.
With a wealth of examples from real-life encounters, Brodow demonstrates how to negotiate for things most listeners never knew were negotiable. He reveals how to develop the skills and the confidence we need to negotiate successfully and achieve our goals at work and in our personal lives.
From the Compact Disc edition.
Advance praise for Negotiation Boot Camp
"Ed Brodow is the King of Negotiators. Negotiation Boot Camp is witty, incisive, instructive, pithy, and chock-full of real-world examples; it shows us how to succeed—not just in negotiations but also in life itself. This is a must-read." —Harvey Pitt, Chairman of the Securities and Exchange Commission, 2001–2003, and CEO and Founder of Kalorama Partners, LLP
"Negotiation Boot Camp is not just another book on negotiating. It should be required reading for people who want to improve their business and personal relationships."
—Joseph C. Mitcho, Vice President, Organizational Development, Wood Group ESP, Inc.
"This is THE BOOK for career women who have any trepidation about negotiating. It is easy to read, and filled with everything you need to know about making deals."
—Marjorie Brody, CEO of Brody Communications Ltd. and author of Career Magic: a Woman's Guide to Reward & Recognition

Wow, so much earlier than I expected! Through talking to you on MSN, it sounded like you needed a real break, but you came through for everyone yet
. Zel, you're amazing, you know that?
Anyways, huge congratulations on having re-done the entire thread, and by the looks of it, it should keep out at the very least half of those spammers out, but there's always going to be people not having the time to (or so they think) read the first post.
I realized that that banner I posted up in the last thread is actually pretty bad, so I'll probably be working on a better one, because I really want you to replace that one...
Anyways, good luck zel, I'm rooting for you and SG 100%! Although, take your time, because the longer you take, the better it'll be, eh? ;D
Business talk
Zel, those new palettes you got in there look stunning. They're not too off with your custom dark-green palette that basically goes through the whole outdoor game. The flowers look nice, and I see you've added in those cool little flower tiles. Are they animated, like FR's flower tile? I mean, do they move back and forth and whatnot.
Another question, have you changed the trees at all? They look different. It may just be my memory of Pokemon Eclipse's DP tileset, the trees were different than yours, but still, I can't help think that you've changed your trees, too. Let me know.

We Mean It, Man
When irony turns to sincerity, 'Nash Bridges' becomes lovable
By Zack Stentz
PEOPLE IN THEIR 20s get justly slammed in the media for being part of a generation addicted to the smirk. Why take anything seriously or risk emotional entanglements when one can view the world through the comforting lens of irony and detachment?--or so goes the stereotype.
But a strange thing happens when one sits down to have a laugh at Charlie's Angels reruns, Monster Truck racing or dad's bowling-shirt collection. As slowly and inexorably as amber trapping a fly, the urge to mock can turn into an openhearted, unreserved love and appreciation for the phenomenon in question.
Example one: Visiting a friend's house the other day, I was only a little surprised to find a copy of William Shatner's The Transformed Man in the CD changer. It's a Gen X rite of passage to chortle at the Toupeed One's rendition of "Lucy in the Sky With Diamonds."
Something else, however, was at work here, some strange alchemical force that transmutes irony into sincerity. "Well," my friend sheepishly explained. "I bought it because it was funny--you know, Captain Kirk doing a dramatic reading of 'Mr. Tambourine Man.' But now, I just listen to it because I like it. I don't know how it happened."
Example two: Nash Bridges, the CBS Friday cop show. Obeying the dictum that there must always be at least one prime-time drama set in San Francisco, just as there has to be one in Hawaii (and indeed, a pilot for a new version of Hawaii Five-O is in the works), Nash has emerged as the network's unlikeliest hit of the fall season.
I'll admit, I started watching Nash Bridges with my critical knives sharpened. Even though the show was created by Carlton Cuse, one of the geniuses behind the late, great Brisco County Jr. and Crime Story series; provided welcome employment to the guy who played the sweet gay English teacher in My So-Called Life (here he plays a goofy hetero detective); and pumped much-needed revenue into San Francisco's coffers, I remained skeptical.
In the debit column was one Don Johnson, who had long ago erased fond memories of his previous Friday hit, Miami Vice (a show that actually got better after everyone stopped watching it), with films like Born Yesterday and Harley Davidson and the Marlboro Man. But a couple episodes into watching Nash, ready and raring to mock, I actually started to like the show.
The obligatory cop-show action scenes are fairly routine, if well-executed, but the interactions among the affable, multiculti cast are quite engaging, and there's a sly sense of humor at work that suggests Cuse's previous show, Brisco County Jr. "That's my sensibility," acknowledges Cuse, on the phone from his Los Angeles office. "Nash isn't as broad as Brisco was, but we like to have humor in there as well as action and drama."
And as he did with the eponymous protagonist of Brisco County Jr., Cuse has fashioned a lead character who breaks from the tiresome "hero with a dark side" cliché by staying virtuous and decent, yet somehow off-kilter.
"Our whole idea for the character of Nash was to have a guy who got all A's as a cop but flunked his personal life," explains Cuse. "And like a lot of people in his 40s, this neglect of his personal life has come home to roost." Two divorces, a willful teenage daughter and aging dad both living at home--Cuse is right, the guy's a poster boy for baby-boomer midlife disappointment.
Nash Bridges, the official home page for the program.
An online discussion group about the show.
INHABITING that flawed persona is, appropriately enough, Johnson, who amazingly turns out to be quite charming in this context. The years of big-screen disappointment and Melanie Griffith estrangement have given Johnson a welcome humility. His crumbling pretty-boy looks actually lend him a pathos he never achieved in his days as a sneering, Armani-clad hipster.
Of course, Johnson and the cast get to frolic and chase bad guys in the incomparable setting of San Francisco, which means that even if the dialogue falters, there's always a pretty view to look at. Unlike most Bay Areabased shows, which send a second unit up to shoot a few exteriors and do the rest on a Burbank sound stage, Nash's producers are justifiably proud of shooting the entire show in the Bay Area.
They must have some sort of technical adviser working on the program as well, ensuring that the proper Bay Area names get dropped and not too many laws of geography egregiously violated during the car chases, as in last summer's aggressively stupid The Rock, in which Sean Connery seemed to pass through interdimensional null-space to drive almost instantaneously between vastly separate locations.
Matters are also helped by the fact that the Bay Area's CBS affiliate, KPIX, broadcasts prime time an hour earlier, which results in Nash appearing before NBC's Homicide rather than head-to-head as in most markets (when a particularly bizarre event occurred on the rival cop show earlier this season, one of the detectives was heard to declare, "It's like an episode of 'Nash Bridges' around here").
"We've actually got beaten up a bit in the press because of that," says Cuse. "Because Homicide is such a critics' darling, a lot of television writers resent us for cutting into their ratings."
NOT THIS CRITIC. Although Homicide is undoubtedly the superior show, its high-strung cast and demanding storytelling style often come across as simply too heavy for an end-of-the-work-week evening of viewing (and don't even start on that other Friday at 9 bleakfest, Millennium). But with the addition of Nash's warmth and anarchic sense of fun, Friday becomes a damn-near perfect night of television.
It's sort of like confession. Say 10 "Hail Barry Levinsons," observe Andre Braugher emote and all your TV sins are forgiven. In fact, enjoying Nash leaves one feeling downright cleansed and decent (though without the saccharine aftertaste caused by exposure to Touched by an Angel).
After all, irony in all its modern incarnations, from Saturday Night Live on down to David Letterman, at heart represents the stance of a bully. Stripped of the subversive veneer, getting a chuckle from kitsch isn't all that different from making fun of the fat kid in junior high P.E. or laughing at a foreigner's funny accent. How much better to simply like a TV show, without the tiresome chore of having to put that fondness inside quotation marks.
And besides, who needs ironic detachment when one can instead have Don Johnson and sidekick "Cheech" Marin bounce and weave through San Francisco's photogenically hilly streets in that cool-ass yellow Barracuda with a rumbling engine that sounds like it was grafted from a deep-sea trawler? Now that's entertainment.

South Walton, FL Firefighters Fight Veterans Day Fire
On Veterans Day Monday November 11, 2002 at 1430 hours, the Walton County Emergency Operations Center received a report of a structure fire at the Veterans of Foreign Wars Post 10555 in Inlet Beach, Florida. The South Walton Fire District (SWFD) responded with a structural assignment of Engines 1and 2, Truck 3, and Squad 3 and District 1.
Engine 1 arrived to find heavy fire and smoke showing from the attic and initiated an aggressive attack. Shortly thereafter, the roof collapsed forcing SWFD crews into a defensive posture. Engine 4,Tanker 3, and Panama City Beach Fire Rescue were requested on a second alarm and Destin Fire District covered SWFD Station 5. Multiple large hand lines were used to bring the fire under control. No injuries were reported.
The fire was attributed to an unattended gas grill that flared up and set fire to the eaves of the structure.
The South Walton Fire District covers 84 square miles including 52 miles of coastline along the Beaches of South Walton, Florida. Its 85 members provide state of the art fire prevention, fire suppression, and advanced emergency medical services to our citizens and guests. The District performs these services from five stations and one medi-vac helicopter base driven by a passion for identifying and surpassing customer needs.

Defense Acquisitions:
DOD's Requirements Determination Process Has Not Been Effective in Prioritizing Joint Capabilities

Increasing combat demands and fiscal constraints make it critical for the Department of Defense (DOD) to ensure that its weapon system investments not only meet the needs of the warfighter, but make the most efficient use of available resources. GAO's past work has shown that achieving this balance has been a challenge and weapon programs have often experienced cost growth and delayed delivery to the warfighter. In 2003, DOD implemented the Joint Capabilities Integration and Development System (JCIDS) to prioritize and ensure that the warfighter's most essential needs are met. In response to Senate Report 109-69, GAO reported in March 2007 that DOD lacks an effective approach to balance its weapon system investments with available resources. This follow-on report focuses on (1) whether the JCIDS process has achieved its objective to prioritize joint warfighting needs and (2) factors that have affected DOD's ability to effectively implement JCIDS. To conduct its work, GAO reviewed JCIDS guidance and capability documents and budgetary and programming data on major weapon systems, and interviewed DOD officials.
The JCIDS process has not yet been effective in identifying and prioritizing warfighting needs from a joint, departmentwide perspective. GAO reviewed JCIDS documentation related to proposals for new capabilities and found that most--almost 70 percent--were sponsored by the military services, with little involvement from the joint community--including the combatant commands (COCOMs), which are largely responsible for planning and carrying out military operations. By continuing to rely on capability proposals that lack a joint perspective, DOD may be losing opportunities to improve joint warfighting capabilities and reduce the duplication of capabilities in some areas. In addition, virtually all capability proposals that have gone through the JCIDS process since 2003 have been validated--or approved. DOD continues to have a portfolio with more programs than available resources can support. For example, the remaining costs for major weapon system programs in DOD's portfolio went from being about four times greater to almost six times greater than annual funding available during fiscal year 2000 through 2007. The JCIDS process has also proven to be lengthy--taking on average up to 10 months to validate a need--which further undermines efforts to effectively respond to the needs of the warfighter, especially those that are near-term. DOD lacks an analytical approach to prioritize joint capability needs and determine the relative importance of capability proposals submitted to the JCIDS process. Further, the functional capabilities boards, which were established to manage the JCIDS process and facilitate the prioritization of needs, have not been staffed or resourced to effectively carry out these duties. Instead, the military services retain most of DOD's analytical capacity and resources for requirements development. The Joint Staff recently initiated a project to capture the near-, mid-, and long-term needs of the services and other defense components, and to synthesize them with the needs of the COCOMs. However, DOD officials told us that determining how best to integrate COCOM and service capability perspectives will be challenging because of differences in roles, missions, and time frames. Efforts have also begun to streamline the process and reduce the time it takes to validate proposals.
Recommendations for Executive Action
Status: Closed - Implemented
Comments: DOD partially concurred with this recommendation and revised both the JCIDS instruction and the associated guidance to specifically address the joint prioritization of capability needs. In January 2012, the JROC updated its operating manual and required that its subordinate bodies - the Functional Capabilities Boards - develop joint priorities for validated capability requirements, which could be used to inform DOD's annual program and budget review. The updated manual also created distinct processes for urgent (near-term) and emergent (mid-term) operational needs. Specifically, it established that urgent operational needs - related to ongoing contingency operations - are expected to be addressed within two years, and that emergent operational needs - related to anticipated contingency operations - are expected to be addressed within five years. The updated manual also established that urgent operational needs shall be staffed for validation within 15 calendar days, and that emergent operational needs shall be staffed for validation within 31 calendar days.
Recommendation: The Secretary of Defense should direct the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff to develop an analytic approach within JCIDS to better prioritize and balance the capability needs of the military services, COCOMs, and other defense components. The Joint Staff should consider whether current efforts--particularly, the capabilities prioritization project--should be adopted as a framework for this approach. The approach should also establish appropriate criteria and measures for identifying capability gaps and determining the relative importance of near-, mid-, and long-term capability needs. Ultimately, the approach should provide a means to review and validate proposals more efficiently and ensure that the most important capability needs of the department are being addressed.
Agency Affected: Department of Defense
Status: Closed - Implemented
Comments: DOD concurred with this recommendation, but asserted that the resources currently allocated for joint capabilities development planning are appropriate. DOD also has several initiatives to strengthen the involvement of the joint community in determining capability needs. For example, in September 2008, the JROC began to experiment with delegation of Joint Capability Board (JCB) requirements validation responsibility to functional combatant commands (COCOMS). Under this experiment, functional COCOMS are responsible for evaluating capabilities within their Joint Capability Area portfolios and, when appropriate, make recommendations to the Joint Requirements Oversight Council (JROC) regarding capability validation. Also, in October 2008, the JROC delegated JCB authority for command and control capabilities to Joint Forces Command. In 2009, DOD delegated responsibility for logistics topics to U.S. Transportation Command and authority for the management and approval of most special operations-specific capability documents to the U.S. Special Operations Command.
Recommendation: The Secretary of Defense should determine and allocate appropriate resources for joint capabilities development planning. In so doing, the Secretary should consider whether the responsibility and capacity of the COCOMs and FCBs to conduct joint capabilities development planning should be increased, whether one or more of the functional COCOMs should be given the responsibility and capacity to conduct joint capabilities development planning, and whether resources currently residing within the military services for capabilities development planning should be shifted to the COCOMs and FCBs.

I go through smoothie phases. I can go months without making one and then all of a sudden I get an itch. Yesterday was an all-of-a-sudden day. I got back from the gym and even though I was hungry I had no desire to eat. Nothing sounded good. Perfect situation for a smoothie experiment!
I happen to have lots of frozen strawberries from my CSA so I decided to use them for inspiration but I wanted to have some fun. Don't get me wrong, a plain old strawberry smoothie is yummy but I wanted something a bit more substantial and, well, different. I like different.
That's when I came up with the idea for a Strawberry Shortcake Smoothie. I decided on using cashews to add a little more body and up the calories since this was meant as a meal replacement.
You'll see I added some lemon extract as well and it may seem weird but a small dash really helps give it a "cakey" taste. Too much will backfire so be conservative.
As you'll see, the ingredients are pretty simple. The honey is optional especially if you use a sweetened milk. I found I needed just a touch because my strawberries weren't sweet enough for my taste.
Here's what I did…
- 1/4 cup cashews (28g)
- 1 cup unsweetened almond milk (8oz)
- 1/4 tsp lemon extract
- 1 cup frozen strawberries (140g)
- 1/2 tbsp honey (10g)
Blend the cashews, almond milk and lemon extract until smooth.
Add the frozen strawberries, blend until smooth.
Taste for sweetness and then add the honey if needed.

Video Of Loudon Owners Reaming AMA's Ron Barrick Is Here
© 2015, Roadracing World Publishing, Inc.

After delays due to technical problems finally resolved by Steve Bacon, here is the video showing white-haired Bob Bahre and brown-haired Gary Bahre screaming at then-AMA Superbike Operations Manager Ron Barrick at Loudon prior to the start of the 600cc Supersport race on rainy Sunday, June 17. Also seen on the video is white-haired AMA Pro Racing Director Of Competition Merrill Vanderslice, whose words cannot be made out, and rider Grant Lopez, who pleaded without success for a short practice session to allow riders to check out available traction on the artificially-dried track surface.
Lopez was attempting to mediate between the professional riders who follow the AMA circuit and the combined forces of the Bahres and Vanderslice, believing that the riders would take to the track if they had a short practice session. The session was denied, the pro riders sat out the race, and 12 mostly-local riders took to the track for the race, which was won by local star Scott Greenwood.
Note that many people witnessed the full-volume confrontation on pit lane, including Speedvision's Greg White and his cameraman, a fact that refutes any claim the participants may have that the confrontation was private or that they had any expectation of privacy.
