DIABALY, Mali At first, the battle went well.
Boubacar Yattara, a 25-year-old Malian soldier, fed the heavy machine gun atop an armored vehicle. His unit fired on a truck full of Islamist militants, destroying it. He radioed for reinforcements, but his commanding officer had bad news. His fellow soldiers had already fallen back, beating a hasty retreat.
So Yattara did what other soldiers had done: He stripped off his uniform, waded through an irrigation canal and melted into the civilian population.
"They abandoned us," Yattara said of the other soldiers, speaking from the hospital bed where he was being treated for a concussion. "We barely escaped with our lives."
In many ways, the battle for Diabaly was over before it began, the latest in a long string of humiliating defeats for an army that the United States once hoped would be a model for fighting Islamic extremism in one of the harshest regions of the world. Instead, it is a weak, dysfunctional force that is as much a cause of Mali's crisis as a potential part of the solution.
Beyond fleeing in battle, hundreds of Malian soldiers, including commanders of elite U.S.-trained units, defected to the rebels who swept across the desert last year, senior Malian military officials said. Then a U.S.-trained captain toppled the democratic government, creating chaos that allowed half the country to fall into the hands of Islamist militants.
Now that same army, which the U.N. expected to be rebuilt over many months of training, has been thrust into the fight once again after a sudden militant surge this month – though it is no better prepared than it was before. Indeed, diplomats in the capital, Bamako, and at the United Nations say that if French warplanes and troops had not joined the effort, Islamists would have overrun the entire country.
"We thought the army would protect us," said Gaoussou Keita, 57, a radio repairman in Diabaly, who spent nearly a week hiding from militants this month. "But they simply ran away."
Worse than that, human rights groups say, Malian soldiers have been accused of atrocities including summary executions of at least 11 suspected insurgents.
"These acts of reprisal combined with the extreme tension between communities constitute an explosive cocktail that makes one fear the worst," Souhayr Belhassen, president of the International Federation for Human Rights, in said a statement.
The army has abused its own soldiers as well, a reflection of divisions that have often kept the army more focused on its critics and internal rivals than on militants in Mali's north.
Instilling a respect for human rights and international law was supposed to be a cornerstone of the training for Malian forces, according to the U.N. Security Council resolution that passed in December. But the army's frequent defeats and spotty human rights record have rekindled longstanding doubts about whether it can – or perhaps even should – be left to hold on to the gains French troops have made.
For years, the United States worked closely with Mali's military as part of a more than $500 million counterterrorism program to train and equip armies across the Sahara to combat militants. With only about 7,000 people in its military and other security forces, and just a handful of working helicopters and airplanes, Mali had acknowledged how daunting a task it was to defend its vast desert borders and drive out growing numbers of Islamist militants, including those aligned with al-Qaida in the Islamic Maghreb.
But no one seemed to anticipate the sudden influx of heavily armed, battle-hardened fighters returning from Libya after the fall of Moammar Gadhafi. They reinvigorated a longstanding rebellion in the north, spurring as many as 1,600 Malian soldiers to defect, according to one senior Malian military official.
The remaining Malian forces were routed so thoroughly that troops overthrew the government in Bamako in frustration.
"We provided training and equipment for many years now, but in relatively modest quantities," Amanda Dory, a deputy assistant secretary of defense for Africa, told a Senate hearing last month. "I don't think that level of resourcing was commensurate with the threat."

Showcase artwork at Gallery Salihara - Jakarta at June 2011
Artwork Title : Disappointed - Contained - Grief [left to right]
Artwork Description :
Tracelandvectorie uses swine as a metaphorical representation of those interests that are slowly sapping and crippling Indonesia, a country that was built on blood, tears, and immeasurable sacrifice. There is a great concern that the fruits of these struggles and hard work are being eroded slowly but surely, rendering the sacrifices
of our forefathers almost meaningless.
Showcase title :
Madu, Racun dan Negriku [ Honey, Poison and My Country ]
"I love Indonesia, but hate to see the behavior of the people who manage it" might be able to summarize the theme of this vector art exhibition. Born and raised in Indonesia can evoke feelings of affection and love of the homeland, but it may also give birth to hatred and annoyance when we see many things gone wrong in this country. Conflicting feelings like that are not always easy to be disclosed. Most of us who have no share in the decision making can only mutter to themselves, then slowly adjust to the circumstances.
Vector Art is a product of global urban culture. In Indonesia, vector art developed rapidly in the last decade. It occured through VektorJunkie site (VJ) and through electronic publication (e-zine), Vektorika, is one of the pioneering examples of vector popularize the Indonesian audience. Now, other than through the conventional print media such as books or posters, vector application has penetrated various types of media such as t-shirts, designer toys, accessories, skateboards, protective electronic equipment (gadgets enclosure / skin), murals, wallpaper, interactive media, and other forth. This exhibition invites several vector artists from home and abroad and showcases the works that been appreciated by various parties.
The other artists who participated are :

Winnipeg Free Press - PRINT EDITION
Posted: 12/21/2013 1:00 AM | Comments: 0
The opportunity, for a change, did not go to waste.
The Winnipeg Jets, just a few weeks ago the worst power-play team in the entire NHL, cashed a pair of advantage goals just 22 seconds apart late in the first period and rode the momentum to their 5-2 victory over the Florida Panthers Friday night at the MTS Centre.
The pair of goals began with Toby Enstrom's one-time blast from the middle of the ice, a five-on-three score with two Panthers in the penalty box.
Blake Wheeler tipped Zach Bogosian's point shot in the ensuing five-on-four and the Jets, finally, were getting things a power play is supposed to give.
"That would have been a tough moment in time, because when you don't score on those five-on-threes, they have a way of working against you," said Jets coach Claude Noel. "That worked out good for us.
"We got that goal and the one right after that was good, with the deflection (by Blake Wheeler). That was a good moment for us; that really helped us out, let's put it that way."
The two-for-four night helped the Jets continue to improve in this area.
They have climbed five spots now, up to 25th in the NHL at 14.4 per cent, with a run of seven goals in 23 chances over the last six games.
"We've started practising it more, plain and simple," said Wheeler, whose goal was his 12th of the season. "That's huge. When you watch video, that's a key part of it as well, but I think hockey players, for the most part, are creatures of habit and you have to kind of go through those motions in practice to get a feel for it.
"We've started to do that in the last couple of weeks. Almost immediately from when we started doing that, the puck started going in the net.
"There's definitely a correlation there."
Against the Panthers, Wheeler said, the Jets struck when the visitors were vulnerable.
Florida -- which had come in with five straight wins -- had been given a lousy assignment, having played in Ottawa Thursday night.
"Whenever you get a team like that that might be a little tired, you get some chances on the power play. You've got to capitalize," Wheeler said. "It really set us up for a good night."
Their period leads of 3-1 -- thanks to the power play -- and 5-2 seemed to give the Jets some confidence.
"Even just getting the one on the (first penalty) of the five-on-three is huge," Wheeler said. "Really, any time you score on the power play, it creates momentum for your team.
"To get a couple, that's almost icing on the cake. That was huge and we really fed off that. We were able to carry that over, sustain a bigger lead, which was nice."

Date: November 26 2012
JAMES PATTINSON had the perfect preparation for the Test summer and still broke down with a demoralising injury, his pace partner Peter Siddle said after picking up the extra workload created by his good mate's absence.
Confirmation that Pattinson will miss the remainder of the Test summer with a rib injury was balanced by a glimmer of good news for all-rounder Shane Watson, who has returned to the bowling crease before the Perth Test. Watson has bowled twice in the Adelaide Oval nets and is on track to be added to Australia's malfunctioning top order for the third Test from Friday.
Australia has been 3-40, 3-55 and 3-91 in the series so far, leaving Michael Clarke and Michael Hussey to lead the revivals. Rob Quiney scored a pair of ducks in Adelaide, presenting the selectors with a simple decision to recall Watson.
Australia will have to reconfigure their pace attack to cover Pattinson, who was in so much pain after bowling one over at South Africa on Saturday that he could hardly breathe.
Scans confirmed the medical staff's fears, that he had a side injury serious enough to rule him out of the last Test against the Proteas and the three-match series against Sri Lanka, which begins in Hobart on December 14.
Tasmanian paceman Jackson Bird added his name to the list of contenders to join the Test squad in Pattinson's absence with 6-25 from 13.3 overs against Western Australia on a seamers' paradise at Bellerive Oval on Sunday. But Mitchell Johnson, who has saved his most destructive Test performances for the WACA Ground, went wicketless on the same pitch, with 0-50 from 12 overs.
Another possible squad inclusion is Josh Hazlewood, the tall NSW seamer in the Glenn McGrath mould. National selector John Inverarity earlier mentioned Hazlewood and Bird as potential reinforcements in the event of an injury crisis, leaving them out of the recent Australia A game against the Proteas to ''keep them up our sleeve''.
Siddle said Pattinson was ''down'' about his latest setback, but added his lead-in to the series was ideal, with four Sheffield Shield games to build up his bowling loads before the first Test. Pattinson then bowled 53 overs in the first Test in Brisbane.
''There's a lot of talk of too much work, not enough work, but his plan was perfect and no different to mine,'' Siddle said. ''He bowled a few more overs than me in the Shield games but he was all primed and bowling well, his figures showed that, he was in exceptional form. It's one of those things, Test cricket. He'll be back as strong as ever.''
Cricket Australia's next dilemma will be to chart a course for Pattinson to next winter's Ashes, and decide whether he should make the Test tour of India from February.
Pattinson played hurt on Sunday to contribute a typically forthright 29 to help Australia set South Africa an unrealistic target of 430 to win the Adelaide Test. He has lasted less than two Tests this summer, having broken down with a foot fracture during last summer's Sydney Test.

This is one of the mountains in the range along the PCT going from Islip Saddle to Vincent Gap. Most people will pass it on their way to Throop peak. It is a true summit though with great views! You're looking straight at Mount Baldy from the peak.The easiest route is only 6 miles round-trip and 1100 elevation gain. This is from Dawson Saddle. At the time of writing, Dawson Saddle is not accessible by car. The road is closed from Islip Saddle to Vincent Gap due to the 2004 winter storm damage.
An alternative would be from Islip Saddle, which makes it 8 miles round-trip and 2200 feet of gain. Do check on occasional closures before Islip Saddle with the forest service though.
Getting There
There are many ways to get to a trailhead. The one I'm describing is the road to Islip Saddle. Take the sr-2 (Angeles Crest Highway) north from La Canada Flintridge for 39.5 miles. You will get to a big parking lot on the left side of the road (mile marker 64.1).Red Tape
A Forest Adventure Pass is required to park; it's 5 dollars for a day pass. You can get a pass at the Ranger station along Angeles Crest Highway where the road intersects with Angeles Forest Highway.In winter the road is usually closed from Islip Saddle to Vincent Gap; so normally Islip Saddle is reachable year-round. There might be additional closures in case of heavy snow/landslides etc. Do check before you leave; the forest service will have the most accurate information.
When To Climb
The mountain can be climbed year-round. Crampons and ice axe might be required in winter.The attached pictures will give you an idea of the trail. No real steep drop-offs.
Camping can be done at Little Jimmy campground about 2 miles into the trail.Note: a good starting point to climb other peaks in the area such as Mt Islip, Throop peak, Mount Burnham and Baden-Powell.
Mountain Conditions
It's hard to know the exact conditions on the mountain. For info on roads etc.:http://www.fs.fed.us/r5/angeles/contact/

Scalable gas phase nanoparticle treatment methods required for large-scale nanofluid and nanocomposite synthesis | |
Authors: | C.A.D. Dion, J.R. Tavares |
Affilation: | Ecole Polytechnique de Montréal, CA |
Pages: | 392 - 395 |
Keywords: | nanoparticles, functionalization, nanofluids, nanomanufacturing, photoCVD, plasma |
Abstract: | Recent work has demonstrated that while nanofluids do indeed exhibit increased heat transfer properties , there is no abnormal enhancement as had been claimed by early proponents of nanofluids. However, this lack of abnormal enhancement of material properties does not discount the usefulness of nanofluids, but it does challenge us to decrease the currently high cost of nanoparticle synthesis and treatment methods. Surfactants, traditionally used to prevent agglomeration and promote dispersion, have significant shortcoming with respect to thermal stability, required for nanofluids. Surface functionalization treatments have shown a high level of success, but the methods proposed are either too costly or difficult to scale up. Photo-induced chemical vapor deposition (photoCVD) shows promise as a scalable method for nanoparticle treatment. This talk will present an overview of scalable gas phase methods and focus on the use of photoCVD for the low-cost treatment of nanoparticles required for nanofluid and nanocomposite synthesis. |

Starting the Conversation Regarding Pregnancy and Oral Health Care
The importance of one's oral health is gaining attention from the media after recent studies noted more evidence that Alzheimer's disease and poor oral hygiene are linked. Led by the University of Central Lancashire School of Medicine and Dentistry, the study found bacteria in the brain of Alzheimer's patients that could have stemmed from the same bacteria that cause bad breath, gum disease and tooth decay. But the association between oral health and overall wellbeing doesn't end there. According to the August 2013 issue of Obstetrics & Gynecology, proper care of the teeth and gums is pertinent for pregnant women. The Committee Opinion piece published in the journal urges gynecologists to discuss oral health with patients for the health of themselves and their babies.
Between 2007 and 2009, 56 percent of women did not seek oral health checkups during pregnancy, and cost could play a role. Access to proper dental care procedures and treatments may have prevented some from visiting the dentist during this important time in their lives. Although there is no solid evidence that associates proper oral care with pregnancy issues, concerns still arise based on the potential of transmission of bacteria from mother to infants. A 1996 study found an association between periodontal disease and pre-term birth; however, large trials have not proved this conclusion.
It's also likely that pregnancy can cause oral health issues, such as gum disease and tooth decay, due to an increased inflammatory response, greater consumption of acidic and sugary food and drink, and the teeth's exposure to gastric acid from morning sickness. Pregnancy gingivitis, benign oral gingival lesions, tooth erosion, tooth mobility, dental caries and periodontitis are all common conditions in pregnant women.
According to the authors, "for many women, obstetrician-gynecologists are the most frequently accessed health care professional, which creates a unique opportunity to educate women throughout their lifespan, including during pregnancy, about the importance of dental care and good oral hygiene."
Oral assessments
While obstetricians and dentists agree that pregnant women should follow proper oral health practices, dentists remain concerned about the safety of performing routine procedures during this time. Because of this, experts urge pregnant women to visit the dentist at the first sign of child bearing. Dentists may be able to catch looming dental caries and offer expert advice on how to care for teeth and gums and prevent tooth decay.
A survey from the Pregnancy Risk Assessment Monitoring System that collected data from 10 states found that 60 percent of women didn't get their teeth cleaned during pregnancy. Black non-Hispanic and Hispanic women were only 24 percent and 25 percent, respectively, likely to get a regular cleaning and white non-Hispanic women were 44 percent likely to visit the dentist.
Pregnant women who have swollen or bleeding gums, a toothache or trouble chewing food should make sure to visit a dentist to decrease the risk of bacteria entering the bloodstream. Dentists may recommend a fluorinated, alcohol-free mouthwash and the use of xylitol chewing gum to reduce the amount of oral bacteria and prevent arising issues. Xylitol is a natural sweetener known for its oral health and nasal benefits.
Roughly 40 percent of women suffer from periodontal disease during pregnancy. The most impacted population is among African American women who smoke and are on public assistance programs, which often do not support dental care.
Pregnant women should begin a conversation with their OB/GYN to ensure they are taking proper precautions during pregnancy and after giving birth. Avoiding sugary beverages and high-fat food and maintaining a healthy regimen of flossing, brushing and rinsing can prevent the accumulation of bacteria.

Professor warns against 'badvocacy' on behalf of Africa
Catholic World News - March 14, 2011
Laura Seay, a Morehouse College professor whose expertise is in African politics, has warned against Western 'badovacy' which, despite its good intentions, can do more harm than good in Africa.
"The act of buying a cell phone does not cause war in the Congo, and it's downright misleading to suggest otherwise," she says. "Why? Because it implies that if we could just stop the conflict mineral trade, the situation would markedly improve."
"Darfur in the popular imagination becomes not a civil war over changing land usability and land tenure rights with people doing horrible things on both sides, but rather becomes the nasty Arab government going after innocent black Darfuris," she added. "The reality, of course, is closer to the former description than the latter, but I don't expect Mia Farrow to know that."
Seay also said that Western policy experts' "so-called solutions rarely work … Advocates on this side of the Atlantic should be asking intelligent victims of war what they think would help rather than insisting that the experts know best."

New Israeli law against underweight models - good, bad or ugly?
Asked by zensky (13322
March 20th, 2012
Though I think it is a wonderful advancement – and as the father of a daughter I am familiar with weight/appearance issues almost all women have, sadly, I have seen some arguments against the ruling, even from women (including models, of course).

The European Court of Human Right's ruling on the transfer of a family of Afghan asylum seekers from Switzerland to Italy has struck a potentially fatal blow to the European Union's Dublin asylum system. Against a backdrop of pressures on EU Member States in the humanitarian protection realm, this article assesses the impact of the ruling and reevaluates the viability of the Dublin Regulation as a key tool in the Common European Asylum System.

Cuban immigrants are afforded a special place in U.S. immigration law, with most able to gain permanent residency after one year in the country. Following a history of surges in maritime migration, more than 1.1 million Cuban immigrants resided in the United States in 2013, accounting for about 3 percent of the total foreign-born population. This article explores key characteristics of Cubans in the United States, including educational attainment, income, and more.
The United Kingdom has faced changing immigration patterns over the last two decades driven largely by EU migration, and political upheaval caused by the rise of the United Kingdom Independence Party and the Scottish National Party. Upcoming general elections in May 2015 will have a significant impact not only on immigration policies but the United Kingdom's place in the European Union.
Immigrant women constitute a varied and dynamic population in the United States with 51 percent or 21.2 million of the country's total foreign-born population. Examining key gender-based socioeconomic indicators from origin and fertility to educational attainment and immigration status, this Spotlight raises implications for sending and receiving countries, with respect to labor opportunities, family structure, gender roles, and more.
Attention is now squarely focused on the U.S. federal courts where the legal battle over President Obama's executive actions on immigration continues. While congressional efforts to roll back the directives appear to have been put aside, at least temporarily, implementation of the signature deferred action programs announced in November 2014 remains blocked. The administration, however, is moving forward with other aspects of the executive order, as this article explores.
Faced with rising numbers of foreign entries (long- and short-term), China in 2012 adopted new legislation to manage its migration flows—the first reform to the country's immigration law since 1985. With an underlying tension in the legal framework between restricting immigrants deemed unwanted and welcoming those viewed as desirable, this feature examines the exit-entry law's key points.
Use this data tool—referred to as "one addictive interactive map"—to examine immigrant populations by country of origin and destination. Find out how many Americans live in Mexico, how many Ukrainians in Russia, or Filipinos in Saudi Arabia, for example.
Whether as migrant-sending or migrant-receiving locations—or both—many countries have rich, complex international and internal migration histories. MPI's online journal, the Migration Information Source, offers profiles of more than 70 nations. Written by leading scholars, these profiles delve into countries' migration histories, demographics, policymaking, and more.
More than 1.1 million persons became legal permanent residents (LPRs) in the United States in 2008. Nearly two-thirds of new LPRs are immigrants with family ties in the United States, reports MPI's Jeanne Batalova in this updated look at the latest statistics on legal immigration.
In the 1920s, the Catholic Church in Mexico feared that mass emigration north caused the breakup of families and religious conversions. David Fitzgerald of the University of California, San Diego looks at how Church policy eventually became a voice for migrants' rights and how these policies have affected Mexican migration flows and Mexican government policies.
MPI's Muzaffar Chishti and Claire Bergeron report on a recent Supreme Court decision, hearings on comprehensive immigration reform, new worksite enforcement operation guidelines, and more.
The 4.5 million older immigrants residing in the United States in 2007 accounted for 12 percent of all senior citizens age 65 and older. MPI's Aaron Terrazas examines the socioeconomic characteristics, where they live, their health and disability status, and their sources of income.
Just a fraction of all U.S. employers use E-Verify, a federal system that checks potential employees' immigration status and their eligibility to work. MPI's Marc Rosenblum explores E-Verify's history, how it works, and the arguments for and against making it mandatory.
New measures by the United Kingdom to control illegal immigration, coupled with France's closure of a center long used as a base for asylum seekers trying to slip into the UK, signal fresh cooperation between London and Paris.
Director of the Pew Hispanic Center, Roberto Suro, looks at how the flagging U.S. economy has not kept Latino immigrants from sending money back to their homelands.
Danger often awaits people who set out by boat, seeking safety from upheaval or persecution. MPI Co-Director Kathleen Newland examines how governments, the shipping industry, and international bodies have succeeded — or too frequently, failed — to cast a line to those in need.
France is introducing a new three-pronged approach to immigrant integration: a revised integration plan, a proactive campaign against discrimination, and a more open but still highly selective immigration policy.
The number of asylum applications lodged with European Union countries fell slightly in 2001, and the number of requests received by particular countries varied enormously.

Title: | WRRCTR No. 66 The Response to Tidal Fluctuations of a Leaky Aquifer System |
Author: | Williams John A; Liu, Ta-Chiang |
Date: | 1973-07 |
Publisher: | Water Resources Research Center, University of Hawaii at Manoa |
Citation: | Williams JA, Liu T. 1973. The response to tidal fluctuations of a leaky aquifer system. Honolulu (HI): Water Resources Research Center, University of Hawaii at Manoa. WRRC technical report, 66. |
Abstract: | A system of two isotropic and homogeneous infinite aquifers, which are separated by an aquitard and subject to tidal fluctuations along their coastal boundary, has been analyzed and a mathematical model has been developed for the response of this system to tidal changes. The mathematical model consists of equations for the amplitude and phase of the response of both aquifers to a periodic tide. A computer program using the IBM 360 has been written for the evaluation of these equations. Both the mathematical model and the program have been verified by an electric analog model constructed for that purpose. The mathematical model was evaluated for an aquifer system where both aquifers have the same transmissibility (and therefore the same leakage factor) but where the storage of the upper aquifer was 100 times that of the lower aquifer. Tidal periods of 0.5, 1, and 14 days were used. The results indicate that deviations from a response corresponding to the no-leakage case could be from 50 to 100 percent or more for both the amplitude and the phase angle of either aquifer. Also, such deviations were produced by a relatively moderate amount of leakage, i.e., 1/B2 > 0.154 x 10-4 ft-2 |

Tunisia RPCV Al Kamen says Bush is known to strap on his iPod
Tunisia RPCV Al Kamen says Bush is known to strap on his iPod
Was Bush Exercising His Mind?
Caption: Now we know what that buldge was - PCOL.
There's been much negative chatter in the media about President Bush not being notified about Wednesday's plane scare until after he had finished riding his bike in Beltsville at the Patuxent Wildlife Research Center and the alert had been lifted.
Detractors noted Bush thus was unaware that Laura Bush was being moved to a more secure spot in the White House complex and that Vice President Cheney had been evacuated. And they questioned why Bush had several hours of free time to spend in midday to travel to a nature preserve for his ride.
But as White House spokesman Scott McClellan noted, Bush had just come back from an extensive, well-received trip to Europe. Then there was that annoying grenade -- a dud -- found at his big rally in Tbilisi, Georgia. So there's no reason he shouldn't give himself time to rest and exercise.
Bush is known to strap on his iPod while riding. Most likely he had it on and was listening to country music, but the critics cannot know that he wasn't listening, say, to an audio book by Princeton's Bernard Lewis , the definitive scholar on all things Arabic and Ottoman. Bush might have been listening to Lewis's classic "The Arabs in History." Or perhaps Lewis's "What Went Wrong -- The Clash Between Islam and Modernity in the Middle East."
So maybe they should all lighten up?

LED lighting is the next wave in lighting. LED bulbs are often more energy efficient than CFL's. BUt they have some important advantages. They generate almost no heat compared to incandescent or CFL bulbs. So they reduce summer air conditioning costs. They last an incredibly long time. Los Angeles is replacing street lamps bulbs with LEDs, so the city doesn't have to pay workers to replace burned out traditional bulbs over and over. This makes them a good choice for hard to get to locations like outdoor flood lamps. Also, they contain no mercury, which CFLs do contain. This alone is reason enough to replace your CFLs.

Watching the gauges to see what kind of fuel economy we could get became something of a game as we navigated the clogged arteries of Westwood near UCLA. Much of the time the engine was either in full electric mode or V
The heart of the system, inside the conventionally shaped transmission bellhousing, consists of two electric motors and four stationary gearsets that distribute the flow of power. The engine and motors transfer torque to a series of gears in the transmission back and forth between two modes so smoothly it's impossible to detect any shifting. A 300V), and a special converter produces 12e're told the transmission is so smart and strong there wasn't any need to include a pushbutton Tow/Haul mode. That remains to be seen. We didn't get much highway driving time, either, but the fact that the Tahoe has 3.08:1 gears, a more aggressive V
It looks like GM's going to be cautious with the rollout, making only a small number of the Hybrid 2 Modes in its Arlington, Texas, plant, as GM carefully gauges demand. Chevy and GMC will get the hybrids first, but expect Cadillac and Hummer to be close behind. Although prices haven't been released yet, we can't imagine Chevy or GMC will let the Hybrid 2 Mode be the most expensive model in their respective lineups. The Chevy should cost around $40,000 and the GMC $45,000. It makes sense that a game-changer should be somewhat affordable, especially one that allows you to carry seven people and haul a 6000
How GM Engineers Reduced Mass• All-aluminum hood and liftgate• Aluminum front and rear bumper beams• Most of the driveshaft made of aluminum• Almost 10 pounds removed from each seat; (however, third-row option still identical to all other full-size GM SUVs)• Much smaller, lighter 12-volt battery• New aluminum wheels on all hybrids
GMC Yukon HybridThe Chevy Tahoe 2 Mode will be sold only in midlevel trim, but the GMC Yukon Hybrid 2 Mode will offer a higher trim-level package, yet its price is said to fall well below the Yukon Denali option package. Chevy pricing will be about $40,000, with the GMC equivalent able to garner around $45,000. Some reports have GM willing to take a $7000 hit for the first year or two before it can get a tighter handle on specialty manufacturing costs. For now, only one plant is producing the variants, but the system is flexible enough to spread to other full- or midsize SUV and truck plants when needed.
Remember the Pickup Hybrid?Astute truck aficionados know this isn't GM's first foray into hybridland. In fact, just last year (as a 2007 model), Chevy and GMC offered a hybrid truck as a contractor's special. The word "hybrid" confused some because the Parallel Hybrid Silverado and Sierra never ran on electric power but did have an electric starter generator and an engine shutoff mode. Reportedly providing an eight- to 10-percent fuel benefit and four 110d never caught on, and GM has since frozen the pickup version. As you might imagine, the new 2 Mode system seems tailormade for a much better, more practical pickup application--if GM builds a Hybrid 2 Mode pickup, it could arrive for the 2010 model year.

On the 2011 documentary "Talihina Sky," a spotlight on their family and sibling relationships (not always positive): "I loved the honesty of the movie, and quite frankly it was a big help to us. Since the very beginning of the band, we spent a lot of time answering questions about where we came from, what it was like growing up with our dad being a preacher, growing up in the church, being in a band with your family. The movie kind of told everything so we didn't have to answer those questions again."
On remaining an arena-level band: "We like playing arenas. We never, ever saw ourselves as an arena band when we started. We didn't even expect to make it past our second album, and just assumed we'd get dropped by our label. Once we got to playing arenas, though, we really started to feed off it. There are things we're still trying to figure out and change. Like U2 knows exactly how to do it, and we're not there yet, but we hope to rise to the challenge."
On being in a touring band since he was 15: "I'd be crazy to complain about anything. But I do have dreams all the time where I'll be like, 'Oh, no, I have to finish high school.' That's sort of weird for me. And I did always think I'd go off to college. I bet I would have had fun in college, too, but I'm pretty sure I outdid my college partying years being in the band instead." [Laughs]

Spring Spectrum
Tried-and-True Blue
"We find a cooling of the palette as we move into 2012," says Sonu Mathew, senior interior designer with Benjamin Moore, "which reflects a sense of calm inside our homes and environments."
And so blue—a calming, comfortable color family, and a longtime crowd favorite—will move to the forefront. (Wythe Blue—a "softer, more livable blue with a modern edge"—takes the stage as Benjamin Moore's color of the year.) In a home, blue pairs beautifully with a variety of wood tones, whites and grays, as well as other shades of blue for a layered effect.
Also fitting for the times is the way the hue, as a cooler color, affects our experience of a room by rendering it more spacious. "If you come back to the idea of the economy and people scaling down, it's interesting that blue opens things up," says Mathew.
Perk up with Persimmon
Copper, pumpkin, persimmon—whatever you want to call that vibrant rusted orange hue—is all the rage in 2012. As a warmer color, it balances those cooling blues because, after all, colors only make sense to us within a spectrum, Mathew explains. "You have to vary color so it doesn't get boring. So we're seeing fun injections of color like persimmon that warm up the palette."
The spicy and provocative shade of orange will pair easily with cool gray for a combination that feels oh-so modern. On the flipside, the hue can just as easily swing retro. "In a nod to the 70s, it will work with brown, as well," says Michelle Lamb, internationally known color forecaster and editorial director of The Trend Curve.
"That's going to have legs—oh my gosh, that's going to do well."
Gray: A Modern Neutral
2012 is a pivotal year for gray, Lamb says. "The newest grays will fall on two different sides [of the spectrum]; they'll be counter trends. One gray will be so cool, you might mistake it for blue. On the other side are grays that warm up almost as a taupe." As a neutral, the hue will make a handsome backdrop for bright trend colors (think cool gray with spicy persimmon, synthetic yellow or vibrant purple).
While gray may be an of-the-moment neutral, according to Mathew, it's also a classic hue. And classic neutrals will always be in style. So slather your walls with gray, opt for some punchy accessories and fear not that the look will fast become dated.

Over the past few months I've been working on getting starting a freelance design business.

text: Tribal treasures from Southsea 02 April 2012Written by Roland Arkell AUCTIONEER Martin Lawrence of Petersfield firm Jacobs & Hunt was not expecting much when asked to conduct a probate valuation in a top-floor council flat in a rundown part of Southsea. Instead, he emerged with what he called the best consignment of his career - over £200,000 worth of antiques acquired by the deceased's parents who had been dealers in the immediate pre- and post-war eras. One of a number of valuable ethnographic objects discovered during the clearance of the property was this Haida grease bowl. It was found in a kitchen cupboard. The fine example of (probably mid 19th century) Northwest Coast American art would have been used for serving rich foods such as oolachen or candlefish grease, a butter-like condiment eaten with dried fish or meats. A high-status object, it would have been brought out during feasts or potlatches celebrating the rank and lineage of chiefs. It is carved and painted in the form of a stylised seal and measures around 12in (30cm). On March 23 it look bids from buyers in Canada, New York, Belgium and Australia before it sold in the room to a collector at £56,000 (plus 20% buyer's premium).

The Proligen consortium, comprising a number of European companies and universities, aims to improve the regenerative capacity of injured kidneys, using information derived from genomics, proteomics, and functional genomics.
Under the terms of the agreement, BioFocus DPI will use its SilenceSelect and FLeXSelect adenoviral libraries and cellular assay expertise to identify targets that can serve as starting points for the development of novel treatment methods for kidney injury. The resulting gene function information will provide the Proligen consortium the necessary tools to deliver new biologicals and cell-based therapies for kidney regeneration.

Radhakrishnan, N (1963) Notes on the maturity and spawning of Opisthopterus tardoore (Cuvier). Indian Journal of Fisheries , 10A (1). pp. 102-106.
| PDF 125Kb |
The present study on the biology of Opisthopterus tardoore (Cuvier) was initiated in 1955 as part of the comprehensive investigation of the biology of the common clupeoids of North Kanara. Little is known about the fishes belonging to the genus Opisthopterus, excepting the post larval stages of Opisthoperus tardoore which have been described by John (1951). In view of this a detailed study of various aspects of the biology of this species was undertaken, and the present paper relates to notes on maturity and spawning of Opisthopterus tardoore, and incorporates the results of investigations carried out in the inshore regions at Karwar.

Dillon Gage Metals Logo
"Preparing for the distribution of your estate—including a coin collection or bullion—may be something you'd rather not think about," says Terry Hanlon, president of Dillon Gage Metals (http://dillongage.com/
The general IRS rule is that gains on the direct sale or exchange of precious metals are taxed at a collectibles rate of 28%, instead of the more favorable, long-term capital gains rate of 15% that other common investments, such as stocks, receive. The 28% rate applies to capital gains on the sale of precious metals, coins, gems, stamps, works of art, rugs, antiques and wine.
In your will, if you leave a son or daughter a one-ounce gold bar worth $1,600, the tax on that exchange is a substantial $448. The 28% tax on precious metals applies to coins, bullion, bars, wafers, paper or certificate forms of gold, exchange traded funds or ETFs and electronic forms of gold. Meanwhile, capital gains on the sale of precious metal mining companies on most listed stock exchanges are taxed at the 15% rate.
Valuing inherited coins in an estate can be tricky because they may be worth many times more than their face value.
Gifts provide a way to bypass inheritance and estate taxes and valuation difficulties. Gifts are non-taxable up to $13,000 per recipient per year and can be given to any number of people. Recipients don't pay taxes on these gifts. Taxpayers are allowed to make gift transfers of up to $1,000,000 during their lifetime.
Gifting through the Uniform Transfers to Minors Act or UTMA can provide additional tax benefits, with you or another adult serving as the custodian.
Many people who own collectibles aren't aware of their estate and charitable planning options. You and your heirs can benefit from the value in your collectibles by donating them to a charity. Options include an outright gift during one's lifetime, deferred gifts by bequest and creating a charitable trust or family foundation. You may qualify for an estate or gift tax deduction for planned, charitable bequests or gifts, and you can create a lasting legacy. For people with wealth in collectibles, charitable planning offers donors many creative solutions, depending on their goals, values and stage of life.
So why let your estate be distributed in ways you hadn't expected? Dillon Gage works with private-wealth clients, trust officers and legal advisors. "We have over 40 years of experience helping people liquidate their estates, including their rare coin collections,"
Dillon Gage Metals offers bullion trading, online trading of physical metal, wholesale jewelry liquidation (http://dillongage.com/

What do you think of the
Showers Pass Crosspoint Liner Gloves
? Share a...
These are terrible.
- Familiarity: I've used it once or twice and have initial impressions
- Fit: True to size
I bought these gloves to be used as liners under my winter gloves. They are very thin, but I figured that I shouldn't judge before giving them a try. When I first put the gloves on, the seams literally became unsewn and the gloves began to fall apart at the base of the palm. I still decided to give them an opportunity and take them out for a ride. Used as liners under my Gore winter gloves, the crosspoint liners did absolutely nothing at 37F and my hands were numb within minutes of the start of my 9 mile commute. I have a pair of castelli wool gloves that I use with my winter gloves and can take them down to ~28F in windy NYC, so I know that the crosspoint liners are simply terrible. Last, the price is just way off the return on quality from these gloves, what a waste.

Please give me a call or email and I will get you set up with warranty to help remedy the situation.

Codemasters reveals F1 2014, F1 2015 to follow on next-gen
Codemasters has released the first details of F1 2014, their latest Formula 1 game, as well as hinting at what the future holds for the series.
F1 2014 will launch on the Xbox 360, Playstation 3 and PC on October 17th and will recreate the current season, covering all the rule changes, as well as including new circuits such as Sochi and the Red Bull Ring, the current driver rosters and the all-new turbocharged cars.
Stephen Hood, creative director of F1 2014 had this to say: "There's been a dramatic shift in the sport; the largest shake up in the rules and regulations for a very long time and the new power units provide a very different kind of challenge, for both driver and team. By delivering all of these changes, F1 2014 will make for an exciting and refreshingly different experience."
Amongst the season updates, Codemasters new title will also contain a refined handling model for users racing with a gamepad, as well as a new driver evaluation system that tunes the difficulty setting to a gamer's skill, increasing accessibility for those players new to the series.
The game, which will simulate the current 2014 season, is to be followed closely by the release of F1 2015, which will launch early next year across the new-generation platforms – PS4 and Xbox One – and will go on to receive live updates throughout the course of the year, to ensure that the experience of the title reflects the 2015 season as it unfolds.
More information on F1 2015 is expected to follow the release of F1 2014 in October.

Sayonara, Cee Lo Green!
It was a bummer of a day for fans of The Voice Wednesday when, after four years of being a coach on the singing competition, Cee Lo Green announced that he was stepping away from the chair for good.
But fear not, Cee Lo fans: The musician isn't fully leaving the spotlight. "I'm going to continue my relationship with NBC," he said on The Ellen DeGeneres Show. "I have a television development deal with them as well, and hopefully some other talk-show opportunities later in the year."
