Sastre confirms Giro push, still undecided on Tour
- By Andrew Hood
- Published Jan. 9, 2010
- Updated Jan. 9, 2010 at 7:34 PM EDT
Carlos Sastre confirmed he's eyeing overall victory at the Giro d'Italia as one of his top goals for the 2010 season, but remains uncommitted regarding his plans for the Tour de France.
The 2008 Tour champ won two stages in last year's Giro and that's only whetted his appetite to make a push for outright victory in the season's first grand tour, but he still hasn't decided on the Tour.
"I want to arrive at the Giro in conditions to challenge for it. I really enjoyed last year in Italy and I want to repeat the experience," Sastre said Saturday. "Right now, I am going to focus on the Giro. We are going to go step by step and there'll be time to think about it in longer term."
Sastre traveled from his home in Ávila, Spain, to join his Cervélo TestTeam teammates in southern Portugal for a two-week training camp to click his 2010 campaign into season.
"We are going to be there two week and we'll take advantage to intensify the training," he said. "When the weather hasn't been good in Ávila, I've been hitting the gym and doing Pilates. When I cannot ride on the road, I go on the mountain bike. It's been enough to maintain the muscle tone and burn the little bit of fat from the recent holidays."
Sastre won't race until the Volta a Catalunya, which has been moved from May to March. After that, he's only revealed that he will race Amstel Gold Race and Liège-Bastogne-Liège before the Giro, though more racing could be added to his calendar.
"This year I'll start a little later than the past few seasons," he said. "That will allow me to arrive more toned to the first races."

Bin Laden's Whereabouts
Osama Bin Laden may be dead. "We have sources that have told us for the last several years now that they believe he was dead but they just don't have any proof of that fact," says Scott Stewart Vice President of Tactical Intelligence at Stratfor. Al Qaida linked websites have been promoting a message from him for a more than a week. The message is going to be screened carefully for evidence that it is indeed him and for the usual forensics that might give clues as to his whereabouts.

Zawahiri Muzzled
Ayman al Zawahiri released a video message on August 27 called the "Path of Doom". Was it a flop? US intelligence sources indicate it might be, because it didn't go "viral" on the internet. It appears the message reached a much smaller number of sites than other messages he released between November 2008 and February 2009. Why is that? Experts say periodically sites or portals that ar used to spread Al Qaida's messages are shut down, sometimes Al Qaida loses operative who work on propaganda to air strikes. In this case it's hard to say why.

It should come as no surprise to you that terrorists and criminals are adapting to exploit different technologies to achieve its goals. Now we're hearing that international drug trafficking networks are using Google Earth to locate the roadblocks and security forces so as to avoid them. Algerian police say Al Qaida in the land of the Mahgreb actually bragged about in a web posting. Authorities around the world have also noted more reliance on technology such as blue tooth to carry out criminal and terrorist deeds.

U.S. takes a page from Al Qaida's Book
One of the hallmarks of Al Qaida's attack methodology is to launch a strike and then once the first responders arrive and the TV cameras are rolling to launch a second wave of attacks. That's what happened on September 11, 2001 at the World Trade Center. It happened just a few days ago as well in North Waziristan, bu the shoe was on the other foot. According to U.S. intelligence, missiles fired from drones hit a compound a compound and three vehicles in the village of Mizar Madakhel. After local militants cordoned off the area and began recovering bodies, a second volley of missiles struck.

Former UBS trader Kweku Adoboli was sentenced to seven years in jail for fraud in relation to a $2.3 billion loss, the largest from unauthorized trading in British history.
'Your fall from grace as a result of these convictions is spectacular', Judge Brian Keith told Adoboli when he sentenced him. 'You are profoundly un-self-conscious of your own failings. You were arrogant enough to think that the bank's rules for traders didn't apply to you'.
Adoboli must serve at least half of the seven-year term, Keith said. That amount will be reduced by the amount of time he has already served.

The Role of American NGOs in China's Modernization
Invited Influence
By Norton Wheeler
Routledge – 2012 – 220 pages
Series: Asia's Transformations
Routledge – 2012 – 220 pages
Series: Asia's Transformations
In the waning years of the Cold War, the United States and China began to cautiously engage in cultural, educational, and policy exchanges, which in turn strengthened new security and economic ties. These links have helped shape the most important bilateral relationship in the late-twentieth and early twenty-first centuries.
This book explores the dynamics of cultural exchange through an in-depth historical investigation of three organizations at the forefront of U.S.-China non-governmental relations: the Hopkins-Nanjing Center for Chinese and American Studies, the National Committee on United States-China Relations, and The 1990 Institute. Norton Wheeler reveals the impact of American non-governmental organizations (NGOs) on education, environment, fiscal policy, and civil society in contemporary China. In turn, this book illuminates the important role that NGOs play in complementing formal diplomacy and presents a model of society-to-society relations that moves beyond old debates over cultural imperialism. Finally, the book highlights the increasingly significant role of Chinese Americans as bridges between the two societies.
Based on extensive archival research and interviews with leading American and Chinese figures, this book will be of interest to students and scholars of Chinese politics and history, international relations and transnational NGOs.
"This lucid and thoughtful book steps away from tired arguments over "cultural imperialism" to show that in China's "state-led civil society" groups from abroad, even overseas Chinese, gain leverage only through "invited influence." Wheeler goes behind the scenes to show that the Hopkins-Nanjing Center for Chinese and American Studies, the National Committee on United States-China Relations, and The 1990 Institute were successful only when they worked within the realities of the Chinese scene. Wheeler offers lessons for other NGOs, educational institutions, and businesses." - Charles W. Hayford, Editor, Journal of American-East Asian Relations
"Norton Wheeler's superb research, theoretical sophistication regarding development and modernization, and historical acumen – intellectual and scholarly qualities rarely found combined in one author – yield a major work that is indispensable for the study of the US-China tie as it binds or unwinds in the 21st century." - Martin J. Sklar, Emeritus Professor of History, Bucknell University, USA.
"Examining the roles of three major American NGOs in promoting mutual understandings between the United States and China, Dr. Wheeler's study sheds lights on a rarely explored yet vitally important aspect of the U.S.-China relationship. This book is extremely valuable for anyone who is interested in transnational studies or America's relations with China, which has become unarguably the most significant bilateral relationship in our rapidly globalizing world." -Xiao-huang Yin, Author of Chinese American Literature since the 1850s
"The international influence on Chinese policy making is a fascinating topic, and this book helps scholars understand some of the factors impacting policy makers in such an opaque environment. I would recommend the book to diplomatic historians, faculty teaching Chinese politics courses, and especially any non-profit organization or university considering launching new initiatives in China. Wheeler offers an invaluable history of best practices for establishing these occasional initiatives with Chinese partners." - Jessica Teets, The China Quarterly (Volume 214), June 2013.
"The Role of American NGOs in China's Modernization is a very useful and informative book about how Americans have contributed to China's development, and as such the book should be read by students and scholars interested in Sino-US relations and NGOs, particularly at a time when US-Sino relations occupy the centre stage." - Dingding Chen, University of Macau, China (China Information 2013, Volume 27, November 2013)

School Education Minister C.Ve.Shanmugam inaugurated the revival of the old government hospital located in the Villupuram town on Wednesday.
Ever since the government medical college was started at Mundiampakkam, five km from here, on March 10, 2010 the government hospital, including beds, equipment, medicines and laboratory, had been shifted to the new premises, leaving the bare buildings.
This has posed problems to thousands of patients who visited the Villupuram government hospital daily. Now they have to go to Mundiampakkam to get treatment for even minor ailments and injuries.
Speaking on the occasion, Mr Shanmugam said that the government had received several requests to make the hospital operational. As promised during the election campaign, Chief Minisiter Jayalalithaa gave her consent in the Assembly, during the demand for grant for the health department on September 12, to reactivate the old government hospital and also sanctioned a sum of Rs 5 crore for its development.
Mr Shanmugam said that the hospital would be equipped with 100 beds and all the requisite facilities would be created soon. He underscored the point that rules should be framed in such a way to bring good to the people and not cause hindrance to them.
The Villupuram government hospital would have a total of 112 medical staff, including two chief medical officers, two senior civil surgeons, four assistant surgeons and 25 nurses.
Joint Director (Health) S.Paranjothi said that if the doctors serving in 10 government hospitals opted for a transfer they would be posted in the Villupuram hospital. If need arises more doctors would be appointed through the Medical Recruitment Board to be formed for the purpose. The government had provided medicines worth Rs 12 lakh to the hospital , Dr Paranjothi added.
Cradle baby scheme
Later, Mr Shanmugam admitted the first female infant, found abandoned at Kattu Paiyur in Thirukkoilur block, to the Cradle Baby Scheme. Recently, the district had been brought under the scheme because its sex ratio had been showing a declining trend.
In 2001 the sex ratio stood at 961 girls for every 1,000 boys but in 2011 it was at 938 girls for every 1,000 boys. During the past decade, spanning from 2001 to 2011, when the scheme was not in force in the district, 74 children were received and they were taken to various adoption centres.
A reception centre manned by five staff would be opened in the Villupuram government hospital for the purpose. Cradles would be placed in the Primary Health Centres, government orphanages and taluk hospitals, Mr Shanmugam added. District Collector C.T.Manimekalai, M.Anandan, MP, P.Mohan, AIADMK Chief Whip, and others participated.

George Petrie (artist)
George Petrie (1 January 1790 – 1866), was an Irish painter, musician, antiquary and archaeologist of the Victorian era.
Personal life[edit]
George Petrie was born in Dublin, Ireland, and grew up there, living at 21 Great Charles Street just off Mountjoy Square.[1] He was the son of the portrait and miniature painter James Petrie, a native of Aberdeen, Scotland, who had settled in Dublin. He was interested in art from an early age. He was sent to the Dublin Society's Schools, being educated as an artist, where he won the silver medal in 1805, aged fourteen.
After an abortive trip to England in the company of Francis Danby and James Arthur O'Connor, both of whom were close friends of his, he returned to Ireland where he worked mostly producing sketches for engravings for travel books – including among others, George Newenham Wright's guides to Killarney, Wicklow and Dublin, Thomas Cromwell's Excursions through Ireland, and James Norris Brewer's Beauties of Ireland.
In the late 1820s and 1830s, Petrie significantly revitalised the Royal Irish Academy's antiquities committee. He was responsible for their acquisition of many important Irish manuscripts, including an autograph copy of the Annals of the Four Masters, as well as examples of insular metalwork, including the Cross of Cong. His writings on early Irish archaeology and architecture were of great significance, especially his Essay on the Round Towers of Ireland, which appeared in his 1845 book titled The Ecclesiastical Architecture of Ireland. He is often called "the father of Irish archaeology". His survey of the tombs at Carrowmore still informs study of the site today.
From 1833 to 1843 he was employed by Thomas Colby and Thomas Larcom as head of the Topographical Department (the antiquities division) of the Irish Ordnance Survey. Amongst his staff were John O'Donovan, one of Ireland's greatest ever scholars, and Eugene O'Curry. A prizewinning essay submitted to the Royal Irish Academy in 1834 on Irish military architecture was never published, but his seminal essay On the History and Antiquities of Tara Hill was published by the Academy in 1839. During this period Petrie was himself the editor of two popular antiquarian magazines, the Dublin Penny Journal and, later, the Irish Penny Journal.
Another major contribution of Petrie's to Irish culture was the collection of Irish airs and melodies which he recorded. William Stokes's contemporary biography includes detailed accounts of Petrie's working methods in his collecting of traditional music: 'The song having been given, O'Curry wrote the Irish words, when Petrie's work began. The singer recommenced, stopping at a signal from him at every two or three bars of the melody to permit the writing of the notes, and often repeating the passage until it was correctly taken down . . .'
As an artist, his favourite medium was watercolour which, due to the prejudices of the age, was considered inferior to oil painting. Nonetheless, he can be considered as one of the finest Irish Romantic painters of his era. Some of his best work is in the collections of the National Gallery of Ireland, such as his watercolour painting Gougane Barra Lake with the Hermitage of St. Finbarr, Co. Cork, 1831.
He was awarded the Royal Irish Academy's prestigious Cunningham Medal three times:firstly in 1831 for his essay on the Round Towers, secondly in 1834 for the essay (now lost) on Irish military architecture and thirdly in 1839 for his essay on the Antiquities of Tara Hill.[2]

Developer(s) | Actian |
Stable release | 8.0 |
Written in | C#, Java |
Operating system | Cross-platform |
Type | Object database |
License | GNU General Public License (GPL) db4o Opensource Compatibility License (dOCL) Proprietary license] |
db4o (database for objects) is an embeddable open source object database for Java and .NET developers. It is developed, commercially licensed and supported by Actian. In October 2014, Actian decided not to actively pursue and promote the commercial db4o product offering for new customers any longer.[1]
db4o is written in Java and .NET and provides the respective APIs. db4o can run on any operating system that supports Java or .NET. db4o is offered under multiple licenses, including the GNU General Public License (GPL), the db4o Opensource Compatibility License (dOCL), and a commercial license for use in proprietary software.
The term Object-oriented Database System dates back to around 1985, though the first research developments in this area started during the mid-1970s. The first commercial object database management systems appeared in the early 1990s; these added the concept of native database driven persistence into the sphere of object-oriented development.
The second wave of growth was observed in the first decade of the 21st century, when Object-Oriented Databases written completely in an Object-Oriented language appeared on the market. db4o is one of the examples of such systems written completely in Java and C#.
The db4o project was started in 2000 by Chief Architect Carl Rosenberger, shipping a year later in 2001. Some 100 commercial pilot customers and community users have supported db4o from its earliest days and it has seen successful use in enterprise and academic applications prior to its commercial launch in 2004 by newly created private company Db4objects Inc.
In 2008 the db4o OODBMS was purchased by Versant corporation, who are as of 2014 the current owners and developers of db4o. db4o is offered to the market as an open-source bi-licensed software (commercial and GPL). Since the initial launch db4o has gone through many changes and improvements (see #Versions) leading up to the release of version 8 in the latter half of 2011.
Place in the database world[edit]
db4o represents an object-oriented database model. One of its main goals is to provide an easy and native interface to persistence for object oriented programming languages. Development with db4o database does not require a separate data model creation, the application's class model defines the structure of the data in db4o database. db4o attempts to avoid the object/relational impedance mismatch by eliminating the relational layer from a software project. For more information see db4o features.
Developers using relational databases can also benefit from using db4o, which can be viewed as a complementary tool. The db4o-RDBMS data exchange can be implemented using db4o Replication System (dRS). dRS can also be used for migration between object (db4o) and relational (RDBMS) technologies.
As an embedded database db4o can be run in application process. It is distributed as a library (jar/dll).
One-line-of-code database[edit]
db4o contains a function to store any object with a single command:
objectContainer.store(new SomeClass());
Note that SomeClass here does not require any interface implementations, annotations or attributes added. It can be just any application class including third-party classes contained in referenced libraries.
All field objects (including collections) are saved automatically. Special cases can be handled through writing custom type handlers.[2]
db4o is designed to be embedded in clients or other software components completely invisible to the end user. Thus, db4o needs no separate installation mechanism, but comes as a single library file with a footprint of around 670kB in .NET version and around 1MB in java version.
Client-server mode[edit]
Client/server version allows db4o to communicate between client and server-side applications. db4o uses TCP/IP for client-server communication and allows to configure port number. Communication is implemented through messaging.
Due to a feature referred to as "Generic Reflection", db4o can work without implementing persistent classes on the server. However, this mode has certain limitations.[3]
Client-server performance is dependent on the network bandwidth. The querying performance can be enhanced by using Lazy Queries.
Dynamic schema evolution[edit]
db4o supports automatic object schema evolution for the basic class model changes (field name deletion/addition). More complex class model modifications, like field name change, field type change, hierarchy move are not automated out-of-the box, but can be automated by writing small utility update program (see documentation).
This feature can be viewed as an advantage over relational model, where any change in the schema results in mostly manual code review and upgrade to match the schema changes.
Native Queries[edit]
Rather than using string-based APIs (such as SQL, OQL, JDOQL, EJB QL, and SODA), Native Queries (NQ) allow developers to simply use the programming language itself (e.g., Java, C#, or VB.NET) to access the database and thus avoid a constant, productivity-reducing context switch between programming language and data access API. Native Queries also provide type safety, as well as remove the need to sanitize against code injection (see SQL Injection).
LINQ support is fully integrated in db4o for .NET version 3.5. LINQ allows to create object-oriented queries of any complexity with the benefit of compile-time checking, IDE Intellisense integration and automated refactoring.
Due to integration with some open-source libraries db4o also allows optimized LINQ queries on Compact Framework.
LINQ can be used both against relational and object data storage, thus providing a bridge between them, which can be valuable for projects using both technologies, or for the projects migrating between the two. It can also be used as an abstraction layer, allowing to easily switch the underlying database technology.
The drawbacks and difficulties faced by other Object Databases apply to Db4o as well:
- Other things that work against ODBMS seem to be the lack of interoperability with a great number of tools/features that are taken for granted in the SQL world, including but not limited to industry standard connectivity, reporting tools, OLAP tools, and backup and recovery standards.[citation needed] Additionally, object databases lack a formal mathematical foundation, unlike the relational model, and this in turn leads to weaknesses in their query support. However, this objection is offset by the fact that some ODBMSs fully support SQL in addition to navigational access, e.g. Objectivity/SQL++, Matisse, and InterSystems CACHÉ. Effective use may require compromises to keep both paradigms in sync.
Issues specific to Db4o may include:
- Lack of full-text indexing, poor performance on full-text search[4]
- Lack of Indexing for string types, text based searches can potentially be very slow
- "There is no general query language like SQL which can be used for data analyzing or by other applications. This does not allow db4o to be very flexible in a heterogeneous environment."[4]
- Replication cannot be done administratively—i.e. one needs to program an application to achieve replication. "This is contrary to most RDBMS, where administrators manage servers and replication between them."[4]
- Deleted fields are never removed but just hidden until the next Defrag[citation needed]
- There is no built-in support to import/export data to/from text, XML or JSON files, although such facilities are very simple to write given the widespread availability of libraries for automatically converting between these formats and objects.[citation needed]
Portability and cross-platform deployment[edit]
db4o supports Java's JDK 1.1.x through 6.0 and runs on Java EE and Java SE. db4o also runs with Java ME dialects that support reflection, such as CDC, Personal Profile, Symbian OS, SavaJe and Zaurus. Depending on customer demand, db4o will also run on dialects without reflection, such as CLDC, MIDP, BlackBerry and Palm OS.
db4o was also successfully tested on JavaFX and Silverlight.
db4o runs out of the box on Android.
db4o uses a custom feature called "generic reflector" to represent class information, when class definitions are not available, which allows to use it in a mixed Java-.NET environment, for example Java client - .NET server and vice versa.[3] Generic reflector also makes it easy[neutrality is disputed] to convert the project between environments, as the database does not have to be converted.
Documentation and support[edit]
db4o provides various sources of documentation: tutorial, reference documentation, API documentation, online paircasts and blogs. Lots of important information can also be retrieved from forums and community additions (articles, translated documentation sources, sample projects etc.).
For commercial users db4o suggests dDN (db4o developer network) subscription with guaranteed 24-hour support and live pairing sessions with the client – Xtreme Connect.[5]
Object Manager[edit]
Object Management Enterprise (OME) is a db4o database browsing tool, which is available as a plugin to Eclipse and MS Visual Studio 2005/2008. OME allows to browse classes and objects in the database, connect to a database server, build queries using drag&drop, view database statistics etc.
In addition to graphical interface to db4o database OME provide some administrative functions as:
- Indexing
- Defragmentation
- Backup
OME was initially suggested to the customers as a commercial product only available to dDN subscribers. From the db4o version 7.8 OME was included into standard db4o distribution and the source was made available to the public in db4o svn repository.[6]
Over the years the community of db4o registered members has grown to over 60,000 members.[7] Many important db4o-related projects, such as standalone Object Manager, encryption support, Mono support etc., are fully driven by community members. db4o's Code Commander program defines the terms and conditions of community project development.
db4o provides free access to its code, documentation, forums and releases to the community members. The community votes for most important features and most critical bugs is taken into consideration when defining the road map and weekly iteration plans. From time to time db4o holds different contests[8] allowing the community members to come up with the best suggestion for an improvement of a specific db4o aspect, which are later on integrated into the core code.
Development process[edit]
The db4o team uses Extreme Programming (XP) practices. Some of the tools used in the development process include:
- JIRA[9] is used for close tracking of the development process, progress reporting, prioritization of tasks, and collecting user feedback.
- SVN[10] is used for version control.
- A wiki[11] is used for collaboration on design and documentation, as well as process notes.
db4o releases development, production and stable builds. Development version provides the newest features and is released for testing, community feedback and evaluation.
Production version is meant to be used in production environment and includes features that have been already evaluated and proven by time.
Stable version is meant to be used in final product shipment.
db4o also runs a continuous build, which is triggered by any new change committed to the SVN code repository. This build is open to community and can be used to evaluate the latest changes and get the newest features hot.
db4o build name format is meant to provide all the necessary information about the version, time of build and supported platform:
For example: db4o-18.104.22.16865-java.zip
db4o – name of the product, i.e. db4o database engine
7.2 – the release number
30 – iteration number, i.e. a sequential number identifying a development week
9165 – svn revision number, corresponding to the last commit that triggered the build
java – Java version of db4o. .NET version is identified by "net" for .NET 2.0 releases or "net35" for .NET 3.5 version. .NET version includes the corresponding Compact Framework release.
db4o public SVN repository is also available for the developers to get the source code and build versions locally with or without custom modifications.
Below is a short summary of the main features of the current stable, production and development builds:
Version | Features |
Stable (db4o-7.4)[12] | Sharpen release (java to c# converter) |
Production (db4o-7.4)[12] | Sharpen release (java to c# converter) |
Development (db4o-7.10)[13] |

So, you've had a crappy day.
You've been in meetings all day at your job, your allergies are making your head hurt, and the last thing in the world you want to do is to sit down and make art.
It's OK, we've all had days like that.
You've got to make art anyway.
Remember that day when you decided that you were an artist? Well, the only thing that makes you an artist is if you DO art. Not doing art and calling yourself an artist makes you a wannabe. No one wants to be a wannabe. You want to be the real thing, right? Well, the only way that happens is if you sit your butt in that chair and do art.
But let's say you're like me.
I come home to my wife, dragging my feet across the floor and collapsing on the couch. I heave a dramatic sigh and say "I really don't want to have to do anything tonight. I've spent my whole day doing stuff I didn't want, and I'd just like an evening to do nothing for a change." (This happened last week.)
My wife smiled sweetly and said, "Just show up for 15 minutes. If you don't like doing it after that, you can quit."
This is a devious rule that my wife developed when her son was 5. You parents know what it's like..."Mom, when's food ready? I'm HUNGRY!"
"Soon," you reply.
"But, I'm hungry NOW!"
"Tell you what, wait 15 minutes, and if you're still hungry, I'll give you a snack".
He never was hungry.
You see, feelings are like the weather. You can feel one way one moment, and another way the next. You CAN'T let feelings decide if you make art in the evening, because...well, to put it nicely, they don't think long term very well. As in, ever.
So, here's what you do when you feel like crap and are angry at having to sit down and make art:
Give it 15 minutes.
I swear, if you honestly are doing art for 15 minutes and it hasn't captured your creative spirit and imagination, you can quit. I'll tell you a secret, it doesn't happen very often. (I can only think of once for me.)
And DON'T worry if you're angry and grumbling when you sit down and smugly tell yourself "I'll show her, I'll only do 15 minutes and then I'll quit." Feelings change.
And when the evening is done, you'll have been an artist, which will feel very, very satisfying.

Holy crap what was that??? Dear drummer: pick a tempo. Pick only one tempo. Dear second guitarist: pick a key. try to make it the same one everybody else is playing in. Dear bass player: There are other fish in the sea.
If any of you are fans of Les Miserables.. the movie was amazing. about 80 percent full today when I went and not a dry eye in the house at the end. Crow wasnt the best singer but Hugh Jackman will win an oscar for his acting and singing.

Re: University of Texas' Head Coach search
Assessing the odds on Texas search
Jeremy Fowler
The country's highest-profile coaching search + Vegas odds = unadulterated Internet heaven...Below are the recent odds released by @BovadaLV, which is seriously pumping Charlie Strong, along with my take on each...
Charlie Strong (2/1): Disagree. Great coach and recruiter, but just seems like an odd fit. He can either stay at Louisville or wait out Florida, where he has a long history and a good relationship with the people there. Louisville AD Tom Jurich isn't about to be outbid. Strong's mild-mannered. Can coach in shadows at Louisville -- and make nearly $4M a year doing so.
Art Briles (9/2): Disagree. No doubt Texas was part of the conversation when Briles and Baylor finalized a contract extension last month worth more than $4 million per year. Both parties already got what they wanted. Bailing on Baylor before unveiling the new stadium that he built would be a tough sell for a guy with a soul like Briles. Maybe I'm naive. Just don't see it.
James Franklin (5/1): Agree. In the next few weeks, expect Franklin to be in the conversation. It's a good time for him to consider a job like this. Texas could use an injection of youth and energy. Franklin oozes that much. Making $3-plus million per year at Vandy isn't a bad gig, either.
Mike Gundy (7/1): Agree. In fact, maybe Gundy's odds should be a bit stronger here. Monday's "Coaching Changes Daily" post outlined why Gundy makes a ton of sense at UT -- if you can get past his 1-8 record vs. Oklahoma.
Bill O'Brien (15/2): Disagree. Could be wrong, but my guess is Penn State or NFL for O'Brien. According to CBS Sports' Jason LaCanfora, O'Brien carries huge NFL cachet. Penn State is a better job than the scholarship reductions indicate. Because of the restrictions, O'Brien doesn't have to win big every year.
Chip Kelly (10/1): Disagree. He has a better job. This isn't Bobby Petrino 2.0. The Eagles are actually pretty good. Kelly left Oregon to test his mettle in the NFL. One year isn't enough of a sample size for that. There were whispers that Kelly brushed off simple booster duties at Oregon. Now he wants to handle the Longhorn Network?
David Shaw (10/1): Disagree. He's just so adamant about being a Stanford guy. Hard to believe all coaches, but Shaw seems sincere about his desire to stay.
Jim Mora (10/1): Agree. UCLA probably thought Washington was the only fire it'd have to put out. If Texas has Mora on its short list, this orange might be hard to extinguish. Mora fits the profile -- high energy, good with boosters, good talent evaluator, would have more resources than at UCLA. If he's interested, I could see this one.
Jimbo Fisher (15/1): Agree. I'm surprised these odds aren't stronger in Fisher's favor. FSU dropped the ball not raising Fisher's pay after last season. Will he remember that when UT calls? FSU has tried to ease concerns with a recent extension to $4.25 million per year, and my guess is the Seminoles will fight to keep their guy. Win or lose in Pasadena, Fisher's roster for 2014 will be loaded and will be hard to leave.
Jim Harbaugh (20/1): Disagree. Has one of the best jobs in all of football. Zero chance.
Mike Tomlin (20/1): Disagree. Zero chance. Just don't see it.

Upgrading to GeForce 6800LE, help required!

Re: Upgrading to GeForce 6800LE, help required!
A good quality 350-400watts PSU should be enough. I think the recommend specs are 18amps on the 12V rail. I´d pick the 6800LE over the 6600GT if you like to play with AF/AA since the performance hit isn´t as large with a 256bit memory bus (on the LE), compared to the GTs 128bit bus. At stock clocks the GT should be a little bit faster when compared to a LE without any unlocked pipes/vertex shaders and at stock clocks. However, almost every LE can be unlocked and overclocked to 6800nu levels and then it should beat the GT.

I just received my Gskill Pi 1100's...
I've got them running at 1100 at the moment while my cpu is running at stock speeds. I'm not really understanding the memory strap thing. What to the numbers mean exactly? 2.40B or 2.50A...? I've used that setting before to slow down my memory in order to OC the CPU but I'm not 100% sure what it all means. |
Basically A, B, C, D are straps.
The 2.0/2.4/2.5/2.66 etc are multiplyers...ie you're runnign q9550 at 450fsb, with 2.5A strap your memory would be running at 900Mhz DDR2.

LG keeps ball rolling with 2015 4K OLED TV lineup
OLED TVs have been capturing eyeballs at CES for a few years now with their vibrant colors and deep blacks, and despite new competition from LCDs with quantum dot technology, the trend continues in 2015. LG's lineup at this year's show boasts no less than seven new 4K OLED TVs in flat, curved or flexible flavors with screen sizes ranging from 55 to 77 inches. Read More
JVC has thrown its hat into the "huge UHD TVs" ring with the announcement of the Diamond Series DM85UXR. At 85-inches, it's the company's largest UHD TV to date. JVC also claims that it delivers the most precise color reproduction on the market. Read More
For all this year's noise about the dawn of 4K TV, the consumer market is still very much in its infancy. As such, it can be difficult to know what to look for when considering a purchase. With its flagship 55PUS7809, Philips is hoping factors such as HD upscaling, Ambilight and price will help it to stand out from the crowd. Read More
Despite the relative lack of viewing content, Panasonic already offers a number of 4K TVs. That range is about to grow and improve with the release of two new flagship models. Panasonic says the new 65-in AX900 and 85-in AX850 deliver the best picture performance of any of its TVs. Read More
World's first 110-inch curved UHD TV unveiled in Europe
There's no denying it, it's a monster. TCL has given its flagship Ultra High Definition television announced at CES back in January a more immersive new bed-fellow in the shape of the 110-inch China Star Curved Ultra-HD TV. The company hasn't offered much in the way of details, but read on for what we do know. Read More
Given the frequent displays of one-upmanship from LG and Samsung over the last few years, you'd be forgiven for thinking that they were the only companies to manufacture UHD televisions. Of course other players like Sharp, Panasonic and Sony have all been knocking out 3,840 x 2,160 resolution TVs for at least as long as LG and Samsung, some even longer. Sony Europe has today announced that it's joining the curved 4K TV sparring ring with the launch of its Bravia S90. Read More
When the first Ultra HD televisions first started to trickle into the consumer space, early adopters paid quite a premium to be the first in the neighborhood to enjoy all that eye-popping visual goodness at four times the resolution of bog standard High Definition. Thankfully, prices soon began to drop and viewers today can get hold of a good-sized 4K TV for under a grand ... unless it carries the mark of Bang & Olufsen. The Danish luxury consumer tech manufacturer today released its new 55-inch UHD BeoVision Avant television for a cool US$8,000. Read More

CYP3A4 catalytic activity is induced in confluent Huh7 hepatoma cells. | |
MedLine Citation:

Drug-induced hepatotoxicity is an important cause for disapproval, limitations of use, or withdrawal of drugs, and there is a high need for reproducible in vitro systems that can predict such toxicity. In this study, we show that confluent growth of the human hepatoma cell line Huh7 up to 5 weeks results in increased gene expression of several cytochromes P450 (P450s), UDP-glucuronosyltransferases, transporters, transcription factors, and several liver-specific genes, as measured by low-density array. The most striking effect was seen for CYP3A4 expression. Western blot analysis revealed increased amounts of CYP3A4 together with increased levels of NADPH-P450 reductase, cytochrome b(5), and albumin with prolonged time of confluence. By using the CYP3A4-specific substrates luciferin 6' benzyl ether, testosterone, and midazolam, we could confirm that the increased CYP3A4 gene expression also was accompanied by a similar increase in catalytic activity, inhibitable by the CYP3A4-selective inhibitor ketoconazole. The CYP3A4 activity in confluent cells was also inducible by rifampicin. Finally, the cell system could support the CYP3A4-dependent hepatotoxic activation of aflatoxin B(1), which was effectively inhibited by ketoconazole. Our results show that Huh7 cells grown confluent differentiate into a more metabolically competent cell line, especially with regard to CYP3A4. |

It's a little princess!
Chile is celebrating the return of all the men they call Los 'Treinta y Tres' – the 33 miners trapped deep below the Atacama desert since August 5.
Just after 9.55pm local time, Luis Urzua, the foreman, was brought to the surface of the San Jose mine.

The last to be rescued, he was embraced by President Sebastian Piñera and told: "Your shift is over".

>Runner's World - My Event Ratings>
In short: Unique setting for a challenging runIn full: The first race I had run for about 4 months - knew what to expect as I had measured the course. The unseasonably hot weather turned out to be a bonus and the grass car park, the longish walk and the delayed start were not really a problem - different story if it had been raining! However, two drinks stations on the course would have been better in view of the hot conditions. Certainly hope this event will become a regular fixture - the Forestry Commission are to set this out as a permanent route and I am sure the race organisers will have learned some lessons from the day.Date of review: September 12, 2006
