Professor of Cell Biology, of Genetics, and of Obstetrics, Gynecology & Reproductive Sciences, Director of the Yale Stem Cell Center. Dr. Lin's work is focused on the self-renewing mechanism of stem cells, using Drosophila germline stem cells, mouse germline and embryonic stem cells, human embryonic stem cells, and Hydra stem cells as models. In addition, Dr. Lin studies germline development and cancers related to the malignant proliferation of stem cells.
Dr. Lin received his BS degree from Fudan University (1982), and his Ph.D. degree from Cornell University (1990). Following his postdoctoral research at the Carnegie Institution of Washington, he joined the faculty of Duke University Medical School in 1994, where he rose to the rank of Full Professor. He founded and co-directed the Duke Stem Cell Research Program (2005-2006). Dr. Lin moved to Yale in 2006 to establish the Yale Stem Cell Center.
Dr. Lin has made key contributions to the demonstration of stem cell asymmetric division, the proof of the stem cell niche theory, the discovery of the Argonuate/PIWI gene family and their essential function in stem cell self-renewal and germline development, as well as the discovery of a novel class of non-coding small RNAs called PIWI-interacting RNAs (piRNAs), which was hailed by the Science Magazine as one of the Ten Scientific Breakthroughs of 2006. He proposed and demonstrated the crucial function of piRNAs as guiding molecules in epigenetic programming. Currently, his research is focused on the role of piRNA-meidated mechanisms in regulating stem cell behavior and development.
Dr. Lin has had many responsibilities in the scientific community. He has served on the NIH study sections (1998-2005) the NIH Director's Pioneer Award Interview Committee (2009), the Editorial Boards of Stem Cells (2005-2008), Cell Stem Cells (2007-), StemBook (2007-), Journal of Cell Biology (2009-), Current Opinion in Cell Biology (2009-), Biology of Reproduction (2009-2010), Cell Research (2010-), National Science Review (2013-), and was a Featured Editor for Nature Reports Stem Cells (2009). He has also served on the Board of Directors of the Society of Chinese Biological Investigators (2002-2008), the Board of Directors of International Society for Stem Cell Research (ISSCR, 2009-), and is Chair of the ISSCR Publication Committee (2009-2012) and Chair of the 2011 Annual Meeting Program Committee (2010-2011). In addition, he serves on the Advisory Council of RIKEN Center for Developmental Biology, Japan (2007-), the Council of Society of Chinese Bioscientists in America (2008-2011), the Medical Advisory Board of New York Stem Cell Foundation (2009-), Shantou University Council (2010-), the External Advisory Board of the Progenitor Cell Biology Consortium, NHLBI, NIH (2010-2012), and advisory committees of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (2008-) and Chinese Ministry of Science and Technology (2010-), among other extramural responsibilities.
Dr. Lin received numerous awards and honors, including the American Cancer Society Junior Faculty Research Award (1996), the March of Dimes Basil O'Connor Scholar Research Award (1996), the David and Lucile Packard Fellowship for Science and Engineering (1996), Member of the Connecticut Academy of Science and Engineering (2007-), the G.

Natural Gas
Natural Gas
Natural gas is a nonrenewable source of energy used primarily for heating and generating electricity. The U.S. produces natural gas from wells within the U.S. but also imports natural gas from abroad. The U.S. imports natural gas via pipeline from Canada and Mexico, but to move natural gas from countries that are further away, the natural gas is turned into a liquid (also called "Liquefied Natural Gas" or LNG) by supercooling and transported as a liquid on tankers before being warmed up and turned into a gas upon arrival in the United States.
Natural gas also has become increasingly popular as an alternative transportation fuel. Serving alternative fuel vehicles, natural gas is clean burning and produces significantly fewer harmful emissions than reformulated gasoline. Natural gas can either be stored on board a vehicle in tanks as compressed natural gas (CNG) or cryogenically cooled to a liquid state, liquefied natural gas. (Source: DOE, EIA / Photo: Flickr)

Existing signatures
For some reason (please enlighten me if there is one), the Animal Sniffer documentation pages never refer to the Animal Scents project, which provides the meat for usage Animal Sniffer, i.e. pre-generated signatures for most JREs. So if you've been wondering what to use as a
<signature> element in your plugin configuration:
|Code Block
<signature> <groupId>org.codehaus.mojo.signature</groupId> <artifactId>java15</artifactId> <version>1.0</version> </signature>
... would probably more explicit/helpful than "

I absolutely love this cologne. BIJAN VIP smells so wonderful I can't stop smelling my fiance any time he wears it...I will continue to purchase as long as he wants to wear it!!

Oh my! I just got my package today and I am so happy with them all. Not a fan at all of Bijan or nude for women but, the men smells so good. I got my son the VIP and it smells really nice. I smell him when he comes around the corner. Not overpowering just right. I would recommend VIP for men also. The nude is more masculine. Great choice!
Written by Donyale on February 11, 2014Read Review details ►
Bijan VIP for men was a disappointment. I was a huge fan of the original Bijan and I loved it so I decided to give VIP a chance. I love the smell. I truly think that it is a wonderful scent. My problem with this cologne is that it has practically no fragrance throw and it dissipates too quickly. It only last about 2 hours and you can no longer smell it...not even on the skin. If this fragrance lasted longer, it would be a total hit.

Join us in supporting The Safeguard American Food Exports (SAFE) Act, introduced in Congress yesterday by Senators Mary Landrieu (D-LA) and Lindsey Graham (R-SC) and Representatives Patrick Meehan (R-PA) and Jan Schakowsky (D-IL). This vital legislation will stop the transport of American horses to slaughter in Mexico and Canada, as well as permanently prevent it from occurring here in the United States. Please ask your Members of Congress to cosponsor the bill and help usher it to passage!
We've known for years that horse slaughter is an exceptionally cruel practice—whether it happens in the U.S. or elsewhere. Due to their biology and their psychology, horses cannot be slaughtered in a commercial setting without tremendous suffering and fear.
We also know that horse meat is not even safe to eat! Horses are fed de-wormers and other toxic drugs that can cause terrible reactions—including death—in people who eat their tainted meat. Consumers in the E.U. are just discovering the dangers they have unwittingly been exposed to, and the scandal grows daily.
In spite of this mountain of damning evidence, the USDA is currently processing an application for a horse slaughter operation here in the United States. Roswell, New Mexico, may soon become ground zero for horse suffering.
The ASPCA has worked closely with federal legislators and other advocacy groups to develop the SAFE Act. This bill will stop the pain and the suffering of equines caught up in this grisly business. Please visit the ASPCA Advocacy Center to take action now to urge your U.S. senators and representative to cosponsor the SAFE Act.
Yay!!! It's about time. Now they will just have to enforce it and make tougher laws for the slaughter houses who choose to do it illegally.
I HATE the thought of horse slaughter but at the present time horses are being shipped to Mexico & Canada. Mexico has no humane laws and it is worse than horrible. As bad as it seems maybe we need to open HUMANE plants & moniter them and the shipping laws. No plants in the US does NOT mean no slaughter.
Animal meat is what is killing us. It is not meant for human consumption. Especially with all of the additives. The production of meat products needs to be banned. God put us in charge of his animals, and I know he did mean for us to treat them as they are being treated today. We are to live in harmony together. Breaking harmony goes against the order of the universe. We are to urge the unspoken rights of all animals and stop all the slaughter. If Americans could see how that steak is processed, I can gurantee half of them will stop eating it. Please find your compassion and heart and end this missory. I would opt for equal treatment in the act of slaughter houses, towards their slaughteres.....this is purely MURDER!!!!!!!!!
People need to open their eyes instead of turning away. Seeing the truth is the only way we have a chance to change the horrific reality these poor precious helpless animals indure. Please stop the madness. This needs to END.
I cannot support the slaughter of horses when there is an abundant supply of animals available as a food source.
But the idea of killing a horse, or any other animal, is repulsive.
Banning abuse of horses is the right thing to do.
So what do you propose we do with all the dangerous and unwanted horses? Horse slaughter does not need to be out lawed, it needs to be regulated.

problems in installing and working with Avast 8
by Riju95 - 3/13/13 9:09 AM
I was using avast 7 but soon they prompted me to update it to 8. I did but after installing and restarting...they prompted me to pay for full security. I wanted to use the free home version and therefore ignored it. But it soon stopped working all of a sudden. I downloaded a fresh installer and tried but it stopped installing in the midway, advising me to clear the cache and download it once again. I tried but nothing happened. I thought if i could delete the old files in the C drive and try but they are denying access to delete it although I am an administrator(in fact the one and only) of my PC. I run windows 7....2gb RAM...and a core 2 duo processor.. can anyone help..?

Achondroplasia facts
What is achondroplasia?
Reader Stories
Achondroplasia is a genetic (inherited) condition that results in abnormally short stature and is the most common cause of short stature with disproportionately short limbs. The average height of an adult with achondroplasia is 131 cm (52 inches, or 4 foot 4 inches) in males and 124 cm (49 inches, or 4 foot 1 inch) in females.
Although achondroplasia literally means "without cartilage formation," the defect in achondroplasia is not in forming cartilage but in converting it to bone, particularly in the long bones.
Achondroplasia is one of the oldest known birth defects. The frequency of achondroplasia is estimated to range from about 1 in 10,000 births in Latin America to about 12 in 77,000 in Denmark. An average figure worldwide is approximately 1 in 25,000 births.
What are the characteristics of achondroplasia?
Reader Stories
Achondroplasia is a distinctive condition that usually can be noted at birth.

Kent State Alumni Association Presents University President Lefton at Oct. 5 Cleveland Networking LuncheonPosted Sep. 12, 2011
The Kent State University Alumni Association hosts its next Cleveland Networking Luncheon on Wednesday, Oct. 5, at noon at the City Club of Cleveland with featured speaker Kent State President Lester A. Lefton. His talk is titled "Five Years of Realizing the Vision." Lefton will provide a five-year progress report that reflects the major, institutional goals identified in the Kent State University Strategy Map.
Lefton marks his fifth anniversary serving as Kent State's president. Under his leadership, the university's enrollment has grown 23 percent in the last five years, which ranks Kent State as the second largest public university in Ohio. Student success measures include the highest graduation and retention rates among public universities in Northeast Ohio. The university also has achieved record fundraising. For the fiscal year ending June 30, 2011, private contributions to the public research university reached $42.1 million, breaking the institution's fundraising record for the third year in a row and bringing the university's Centennial Campaign total to $239.4 million, just more than $10 million away from its $250 million goal.
Lefton's commitment to making Kent State a world-class university has led to new partnerships and initiatives that benefit students as well as the Kent State community, the city of Kent, the region and the state. With the tireless work of several public and private collaborators, the $100-million downtown Kent redevelopment project is becoming a reality. Key academic objectives have been realized, including program approvals and enrollments in the new College of Public Health, continued integration of the eight-campus system, expansion of distance learning offerings, and growth in international enrollments and partnerships.
Alumni, friends of Kent State and the general public are welcome to attend the Oct. 5 Cleveland Networking Luncheon. The cost is $15 for Kent State Alumni Association members and $20 for nonmembers. Limited seating is available. The registration deadline is Friday, Sept. 23. For reservations, call 1-800-320-5368 or respond online at www.ksualumni.org.
The City Club is located at 850 Euclid Ave. in downtown Cleveland. For more information on the City Club, including parking and directions, visit www.cityclub.org.
The Cleveland Networking Luncheon Series is a quarterly event presented by the Kent State Alumni Association. For the past two years, the luncheon has been held in the downtown Cleveland area as part of the new KSU in Cleveland initiative. With more than 25,000 alumni living or working in Cuyahoga County, the KSU in Cleveland initiative focuses its efforts on offering a variety of programming in the downtown area to cater to the variety of needs of Kent State alumni. The Cleveland Networking Luncheons are designed to engage alumni working downtown who are interested in networking with fellow alumni, attending speakers on various topics and remaining engaged with the university but who may have significant time restraints outside of the 9-5 business day.
To learn more about KSU in Cleveland and get involved by joining the KSU in Cleveland monthly listserv, email Brittney Braydich at firstname.lastname@example.com. For more information on the Kent State Alumni Association, visit www.ksualumni.org.

Interactive Qualifying Project
The Interactive Qualifying Project, known on campus as the IQP, is WPI's most distinctive academic requirement, and it is unique in higher education. The IQP challenges students to address a problem that lies at the intersection of science or technology with social issues and human needs and is done under the direct guidance of one or more faculty advisors, usually in teams of 2-4 students.
The objective of this interdisciplinary requirement is to enable WPI graduates to understand, as citizens and as professionals, how their careers will impact the larger society of which they are part. Generally, these projects involve some analysis of how technology affects, and is affected by, individuals and communities.
Many projects are proposed by external agencies or organizations, and most are done in teams. About 60 percent of all IQPs are completed through the Global Projects Program at one of WPI's Project Centers in Africa, the Americas, Asia, Australia, or Europe.
Meet some of our Aerospace Engineering students, and learn how their projects have positively impacted themselves and others.

SALEM - The Environmental Protection Agency regional office in Seattle has accepted a petition with more than 700 names asking the agency to investigate what caused at least four cases of a rare bone cancer in West Salem.
Our immediate goal is to get a clearer picture of what's happening locally, said MarkMacIntyre with the EPA. He said the EPA was beginning a process that would include arranging interviews, identifying possible places to investigate, reviewing existing data and contacting state health officials for more background on the concerns.
Residents in the West Salem area signed the petition asking for the EPA to investigate after a series of deaths from a rare type of cancer rocked their community.
More than 1,000 people turned out for a celebration of life for Lisa Harder earlier this month. She was a senior at West Salem high school, and the homecoming queen. She was the third person from the West Salem area to recently die from osteosarcoma.
The others include 21-year-old Randy Bultena, and 5-year old Darian King. Another teen, Tyler Prosser is battling the same cancer at West Salem High.
The cancer is quite rare and school leaders want answers.
I think the prudent thing is to have some sort of an investigation so that we can put people's minds at ease, said principal Ed John.
Students at the high school started several petitions but the most organized is an online petition started by Lynnette Miller. She has a daughter at West Salem High School and said kids are worried. She sees that in the petition comments too.
The comments that people are writing, you just hear the pleas. 'Please, please do something,' 'Find out what it is,' Miller said.
State health leaders warn there are no simple answers to describe the root of the cancer.
At this point we cannot answer that question, said Dr. Katrina Hedberg, Oregon s state epidemiologist.
In the meantime, many in the Salem area want the scientists to at least try to find a cause. A school counselor said it will help the community deal with the deaths of Lisa Harder and the two others.
There's the science and preventative aspect, let s ask the right questions. But also its part of our grief as a community to want to know answers to these things, said David Hamlin.

I would be curious on how many pro level players does Gateway have outside of the St. Louis area. It doesn't seem that they have anyone that is not a personal friend of Dave McCormick. I think he has himself listed as a sponsered pro as well. If the player pool is limited then you wouldn't get the top players.
His marketing seems sound. Its just like Christianity - target children and youth and they will grow in the church. Gateway targets beginners and have them get so used to using your product that you wouldn't want to throw something else. Much like Innova in Louisville. There are 4 places to buy in Louisville. Dicks, Play it Again and Daves (when it is open). 3 of them are Innova only. New players are more than likely going to use Innova because it is accessible. Gateway, and other companies, need to be more accessible.

Tennis Teams Dominate at Methodist Invitational
October 7, 2013
FAYETTEVILLE, N.C. The Pfeiffer mens and womens tennis teams competed at the Methodist Invitational hosted by Methodist College over the weekend. Each team boasted strong performances, with the women dominating their brackets.
The Lady Falcons won seven of the eight flights they competed in and they took home third place in the only event they didnt win outright. Valeria Mendoza won Singles Flight 2 and teamed with Taylor Lindsay took take home the top spot in the first doubles competition. Hannah Watson won third singles, winning all six sets she played in. Mylene Petitpas stormed through fourth singles, losing only six games en route to the victory. Briana Oliver won fifth singles and the paired with Petitpas to win third doubles. In second doubles, Olivia Nelms and Watson won by scores of 8-1, 8-3 and 8-2 to take the crown.
The Pfeiffer mens tennis team also had a great weekend led by Loic Minery and Sebastian Wernecke who defeated the top pair from Methodist University to win the Methodist Fall Invitational. The pair was perfect in doubles together going 4-0 and combining for a 7-1 record in singles. Jimmy Molina and Zack Huffman combined to win the consolation championship defeated a formidable pair from Lynchburg College in the final pairing of the weekend.
This wraps up the fall portion of competition for the two squads who will both be back in action in early February.

The @Immutable Annotation
Immutable objects are ones which don't change after initial creation. Such objects are frequently desirable because they are simple and can be safely shared even in multi-threading contexts. This makes them great for functional and concurrent scenarios. The rules for creating such objects are well-known:
- No mutators (methods that modify internal state)
- Class must be final
- Fields must be private and final
- Defensive copying of mutable components
- equals, hashCode and toString implemented in terms of private fields
Writing classes that follow these rules is not hard but does involve a fair bit of boiler plate code and is prone to error. Here is what such a class might look like in Java:
Groovy makes it easier to create such classes using the @Immutable annotation. You only need this:
The "other code" shown above is added at compile time. All of the methods you see above will be there (and you can use them from Java of course). You just don't need to develop and maintain them.
The Details
A class created using @Immutable has the following characteristics:
- Properties automatically have private, final backing fields with getters.
- Attempts to update the property will result in a
- A map-based constructor is provided which allows you to set properties by name.
- A tuple-style constructor is provided which allows you to set properties in the same order as they are defined.
- Default
toStringmethods are provided based on the property values.
Cloneableobjects and arrays are defensively copied on the way in (constructor) and out (getters).
- Arrays and cloneable objects use the
clonemethod. For your own classes, it is up to you to define this method and use deep cloning if appropriate.
Collectionobjects and
Mapobjects are wrapped by immutable wrapper classes (but not deeply cloned!).
- Attempts to update them will result in an
- Fields that are enums or other
@Immutableclasses are allowed but for an otherwise possible mutable property type, an error is thrown.
- You don't have to follow Groovy's normal property conventions, e.g. you can create an explicit private field and then you can write explicit get and set methods. Such an approach, isn't currently prohibited (to give you some wiggle room to get around these conventions) but any fields created in this way are deemed not to be part of the significant state of the object and aren't factored into the
hashCodemethods. Use at your own risk!

A more sensible question would be in what year you got your first mobile. Early 90s, late 90s, 2000-2003, 2003-2005, 2005-2007, 2007+ or something similar would make the poll actually useful, and I guess that goes against Slashdot rules.

All the results for this poll tell me is what I already knew: the majority of people on this site are older than the internet.

Mizuki Konno is your typical high school junior at Yanno Prefectural High School. Like many teens her age, she is studying hard for college and when she has some downtime she likes to fuss over fashion and make-up. While she may not be one of the class elites, Mizuki is fortunate to be on the right side of her class's idols. But that might not settle well with those who are in a similar academic status but not so lucky with their social lives.
Mizuki has determined in her diary who is a "have" and who is a "have not." The diary is discovered before a class fieldtrip and tensions are now at new heights. Fights may soon break out - and ironically they will come from those "meek and helpless" figures who supposedly have no friends or future. But all this is supplanted when tragedy strikes in the form of a traffic accident and the class is split into two new groups: the living and the dead!

By Suzanne Kubota
Senior Internet Editor
Less than a year has passed since Aneesh Chopra was confirmed as the US Chief Technology Officer. Since then, the President opened a discussion with the American people about what "openness" in the federal government should mean, had a directive issued by OMB to put it in motion, and 45 days later, the first set of deliverables was due.
All of this, Chopra told Federal News Radio, is intended to "lead to a culture change here in Washington."
Now, "three or four deliverables" later, Cabinet departments and other major agencies are implementing, and self-evaluating, version 1.0 of their Open Government Plans.
We roughly had 24 Cabinet level agencies participate and five departments that are officially recognized as departments within the Executive Office of the President, including my own home, the Office of Science and Technology Policy.
In a joint blog on the White House website written with US CIO, Vivek Kundra, Chopra said the initial assessments show "we are off to a good start -- but have much more work to do" towards "effective agency implementation."
Well, the President had always signaled that this initiative would be a long-term culture change. One that brought a seat for the American people more directly into the policy-making apparatus. That's not going to happen overnight. We never intended this to be a compliance exercise or a "write a 700 page report and thank goodness you're done and move on." Our whole intention here was to have a living document. One that would be very, very open for improvement and refinement. So while we have seen the results, to date, how the agencies have described what they'll be doing to make information more transparent, how they will listen to the American people more in policy-making, how they intend to collaborate with public-private and academic partners to achieve on policy goals, we are getting the feedback from the American people on how to make it even better.
Going forward, Chopra said he's looking at how the agencies have taken the goals and exceeded expectations. Those will be compiled into a "leading practices summary".
So it's not just the fact that you look at the three that have green (the Department of Health and Human Services, Department of Transportation, and NASA) and say "gosh, what have they done?" We actually believe a lot of the agencies that have been marked yellow because they forgot a particular component might really have excelled in one dimension and we should celebrate that. So our intention is, over the coming weeks, Vivek and I will publish a leading practices summary to help us identify what works and what doesn't.

Never received a comment to that effect.
This happened a couple of times to me within the past couple of months, all of these comments came from my boss.
I was wearing Spicebomb, she came into my office and said it smelled like cinnamon in here.
I was wearing MJ Bang, and she said it smelled like pepper.
Today I am wearing Rive Gauche, she said it smelled like licorice. I mentioned that my cologne had black licorice sen in it, but she said it smelled like Red Vines. I just thought that was funny and figured I'd see if anyone else had gotten funny or strange comments.
Never received a comment to that effect.
When I was sampling MKK, my wife came up to me and said "What's that? You smell like camels balls! "
Funnily enough I was just smelling a powdery floral, I must be anosmic to the musk in MKK!
Well, it's cheaper than therapy... edit: No it's not...
Never received one of those.
My brother, on New Haarlem: "smells like waffles!"
Tbh I can't blame him, for the first few hours
My friend was convinced I had been smoking a pipe, but really I was just wearing Tobacco Vanille. He couldn't believe that what he was smelling was actually a perfume.
The camel balls comment had me rolling. I am not sure if I would wear that one again after that!
Lol never received any weird comments.
One of my clients (a child) one time said that I smelled like oranges, I was wearing TdH.
Just shows how the heavy musks can be picked up differently by different people! Although she did say she liked it in a 'sleeping in a Mongolian yurt on a fur pelt' kind of way. So it got a tentative thumbs up in the end.

unfortunatly most of the comments i get on fragrances are negative or are neutral..like "are you wearing cologne?" or "what smells" or "who are you trying to impress, your not on a date"
14 sprays of DRAKKAR NOIR should do it
The first compliment/remark when I first got into niche was from a mental health client I knew from work...I had on Green Irish Tweed, and she said..."OH...what is that you are wearing- AXE?" (Axe being a very cheap drugstore body spray $2/can)
DK Fuel: smells like money, drugs, whisky, tobacco and guns.
Three sprays of YSL M7 and I went immediately into the car, together with some friends.
One of them, opening the car window: "You smell like a prostitute!"
A 13 year old boy told me that my cologne smells "expensive", when in fact it was just a $25 Guess Marciano for Men. On a separate occasion, a girl in the same age range mentioned to her friends that it "smells like waffles" when I walked past by them.
trying ysl l'homme today, 2 sprays on the chest. came back home after work and while cuddling with my gf in the sofa, she suddenly starts sniffing my chest and tell me "you're not cheating on me are you? you smell like a woman."
so i pass her the perfume. told her she can have it. im not going to wear that woman scent again.
While wearing Maison Francis Kurkdjian Oud, I've received two strange comments. Someone said it smelled like one of those cheap scent cards you put on your car rearview mirror. And someone else said it smelled like shit, like literally...
I love it though...
As a teenager I wore 'Aqua di Gio' aftershave. My dad told me I smelt like "burning grass"....
What's burning in here?! (Gucci pour Homme I)
Cheap airline tissue (Eau de Gentiane Blanche)
What's burning in here?!? (Encre Noire)
A wee bit poopy (Al Oudh, person later went on to adore MfK's Absolue pour le Soir)
Not a funny comment per se, but here's a funny situation that happened to me a couple of years ago. It needs to be said that I live in a place where people don't usually comment on a person's fragrance, regardless of what they think of it.
15 minutes after spraying A* Men, I meet two male friends at a bar.
Friend #1 (with a disgusted look on his face): WTF is that cologne you're wearing?
Friend #2: Oh yeah, it smells terrible. Is it even designer? (Like that's a sign of quality :P)
Fast forward two hours or so... I'm in the back seat of a car with an attractive 20 year old woman, and both of us are slightly drunk at this point. She unbuttons my shirt slightly and buries her nose into my chest, constantly telling me how yummy I smell.
I think I'll go with the female opinion.

Aventus: "you tryin' to wear that as a scent or are you workin' on marinatin' somethin' ?"
"You smell like a celery!"-PdN New York. That left me a tad confused.
"You smell like an old whore!"-MR of course. The comeback "Really, I've never gotten that close.
BTW, to a previous comment. How do they what do camel balls smell like. Chicken, perhaps?
It was a calculated risk. Unfortunately, I'm bad at math.
Spicebomb: "You smell like a delicious cinnamon roll."
Aventus: "Did someone have to go to the bathroom?"
Story time! So, a group of friends and I are meeting up to watch the Hobbit at its midnight premiere at an Imax theater. My group of friends is a little...different...so they had all their kids dressed up as characters and some of the adults were too. I, of course, had a glorious beard and shaggy mane of hair going on because I play a character actor for our local Renaissance fair, but didn't want to dress up.
Well, one thing led to another and I was running late after getting home from work that night, so I quickly changed into a pair of jeans and a flannel shirt. The cologne of choice wasn't well thought out either and I sprayed what a couple shots of Slumberhouse Norne on myself. By the time I got to the movie theater it was raining and my girlfriend had forgotten to put an umbrella in our car so of course she borrows my jacket to shield herself while I soak to the bone. We finally make it inside and join our group and the literally first comment out of my best friend's wife and others was, "You look and smell like a lumberjack.". Being a smart ass, I replied with something like, "Well, someone needs to cut down the disgusting Elves forests.". Of course not realizing that there were three little girls all dressed up as elves who in turn start crying because of my mean comment. Parents are laughing, children are crying, my girlfriend gives me the Look of Shame, it was a good night.

South Africa, New Zealand and Australia will all win on Saturday.
The Boks will comfortably beat Samoa by 20-plus points. Samoa were surprisingly good against Italy in scoring five tries to one and winning by 39-10. The Boks won 44-10 against the same team a week ago.
This would suggest there will only be a score in Saturday's one-off against Samoa in Pretoria, but the Boks are five points better than Samoa and in Pretoria they will triumph by at least 20 points.
The Test will be something similar to when the Bulls played the Hurricanes. The Samoans will be physical in the tackle but they don't have the physicality at the gain line that we saw from the Samoan team that ran the Boks close at the 2011 World Cup.
Samoa's best run on XV is an improvement from what has toured here previously but it is still not good enough to challenge the Boks.
The Boks could have been excused for playing only in patches to beat Italy and Scotland but coach Heyneke Meyer and the South African rugby public will rightly expect a more comprehensive and comforting performance in Pretoria.
The All Blacks will be 15 points too strong for the French in New Plymouth. The stuffing was knocked out of the French in Christchurch and this match won't have the intensity of the first two Tests. Both teams will play with a positive attitude. The All Blacks have made five changes and the French have made eight.
It is a dead rubber in the context of the three-Test series.
In the weekend's premier game Australia will beat the British and Irish Lions by five to seven points.
The match is being played in Brisbane and Australia traditionally have had the edge over Wales in Australia, even if only just. The Lions are made up largely of Welsh players and the Wallabies, despite losing several players to injury, are still good enough to beat the tourists who have suffered because of a lack of preparation when it comes to facing quality opposition.
The Lions tour will then go into free fall and the Wallabies will take the series 3-0.

GREENVILLE, S.C. — Physical training is a staple in the life of wide receiver Steve Smith no matter whether he's tutoring adults and kids at a local gym or away enjoying a family vacation.
"We're heading to Disney World soon with my family, but even there I have to pack a little extra because I've got to get in an hour of training prior to heading out to the park," Smith said.
"Training for me is my job, and so I have to implement my job no matter where I'm at in the country or out of the country. I still have to do it because the Carolina Panthers have the expectation that every guy will come to camp in shape, and I make sure I prepare and that I'm one of
those guys they can count on."
With Panthers training camp opening at Wofford in less than a month, the veteran star paid an early visit to the area Saturday at the D1 training facility in Greenville, S.C., where he put athletes of all ages through some rigorous paces.
It's mostly with the younger set where words of wisdom from the father of three resonates the loudest, but Smith's gospel of hard work and dedication to always improving oneself is a life lesson for any age.
"You will either be comfortable or uncomfortable in life and comfortable equals lazy," Smith told attendees at the conclusion of the workout. "Don't be comfortable. I'm still uncomfortable every day knowing I can always improve myself."
The 5-foot-9, 185-pounder has always played with the proverbial chip on his shoulder, one of those always seeking redemption toward those who felt he was undersized and too undisciplined to ever be much more than just a return man in the NFL.
Now preparing for his 13th professional season at 34 years old, Smith remains one of the league's most feared playmakers after undergoing career rejuvenation with the arrival of quarterback Cam Newton in 2011.
For a guy who has amassed 772 receptions for 11,452 yards and 63 touchdowns, the incentive hasn't appeared to have waned one bit even if the physical part isn't exactly joyous.
"I've never had a workout where I didn't feel like this sucks," Smith said. "All the workouts feel the same where I walk in feeling great and walk out feeling horrible, and that doesn't change. I always train to have a hard workout, so even as I get older, the regimen doesn't change."
Smith had fun in running drills both as a receiver and defensive back against a group of teenagers that were obviously thrilled with getting a chance to catch a pass or knock one down against an NFL Pro Bowler. In one instance Smith drew big laughs when he punctuated a nice
grab with his patented celebratory ball-spin on the turf. Later he was playfully physical on the line with one kid who was insisting he could show up the NFLer, never allowing the teen to even get off the line and nearly knocking him into a photographer.
It was all in good fun and Smith seemed to enjoy himself as much as the many in awe just to share the field with him.
"A lot of times the kids don't get an opportunity to get up close with us," Smith said. "I'm part owner (of D1) and when I got involved one of the stipulations was coming down here once or twice a year so I can interact with people and it's a little bit more personal.
"It's about the training. Professional athletes train because we have to. One of the things that's pretty unique is a lot of moms train as hard or even harder than athletes because they use it as an outlet and to de-stress. You get out here with them and they are going full-speed, but we all put our pants on one leg at a time. They get to see I'm a regular guy too, but I just have to train all the time."

Blues coach Pat Lam has resisted the temptation to rush Ma'a Nonu into the match 22 for Friday's match against the Chiefs.
Nonu returned from a stint in Japanese club rugby last week, and is only likely to be considered for the Blues' tour to South Africa. Lam has also stuck with Michael Hobbs at flyhalf and Alby Mathewson at scrumhalf, with All Blacks No 9 Piri Weepu still warming the bench.
The only change to the starting side that fronted the Crusaders sees Tevita Mailau coming in for Charlie Faumuina at tighthead prop. Faumuina sustained an injury last week and won't be risked against the Chiefs.
Meanwhile, Chiefs coach Dave Rennie has been forced to make numerous injury-related changes.
Long term injuries to props Ben Afeaki and Toby Smith sees rookie Ben Tameifuna promoted to the starting line-up. His cousin, Arizona Taumalolo will pack down on the other side of the Chiefs' front row.
Samoa utility forward Kane Thompson comes in at No 8, Tanerau Latimer starts at openside flank and hooker Mahonri Schwalger is promoted to the run-on side. Asaeli Tikoirotuma is on the left wing in place of the injured Lelia Masaga.
Chiefs – 15 Robbie Robinson, 14 Asaeli Tikoirotuma, 13 Richard Kahui, 12 Sonny Bill Williams, 11 Tim Nanai-Williams, 10 Aaron Cruden, 9 Tawera Kerr-Barlow, 8 Kane Thompson, 7 Tanerau Latimer 6 Liam Messam (c), 5 Brodie Retallick, 4 Craig Clarke, 3 Ben Tameifuna, 2 Mahonri Schwalger , 1 Arizona Taumalolo.

Bulldogs And Mountaineers Split Saturday Doubleheader
SPOKANE, Wash. – In a rare West Coast Conference versus Southern Conference match up, the Gonzaga University baseball team split its doubleheader with Appalachian State University at Patterson Baseball Complex and Washington Trust Field Saturday. In game one the Zags won 4-0 and the Mountaineers rallied for a 6-2 victory in the nightcap.
With the split, the Zags move to 32-15-1 overall and Appalachian State goes to 26-19.
In the opener it was All-American Marco Gonzales (7-2) putting on an All-American performance. Gonzales delivered a complete game shutout and scattered six hits while striking out 10 Mountaineers.
After an ASU single in the first inning, Gonzales would retire the next 12 batters until the fifth. With two outs, Preston Troutman and Brandon Burris hit back-to-back singles to put runners on the corners. However, Gonzales escaped the threat by getting a fly out to left field to end the inning.
Early on the game appeared to be a pitchers duel between Gonzales and Mountaineer Jaime Nunn. However GU was on the board first with by scoring in the third inning.
Travis Forbes led off the GU half of the inning with a hard hit double over the left fielders head. Forbes then advanced on a well placed Taylor Jones sacrifice bunt and scored on a Mitchell Gunsolus single to right field.
The Zags struck again with two outs in the sixth inning. Steven Halcomb and Alex Bonczyk hit back-to-back singles and advanced to second and third on a Nunn wild pitch. Billy Moon then hit a grounder that the Mountaineer first baseman botched allowing Moon to reach and Halcomb to score.
Gonzaga added another insurance run on a perfectly executed safety squeeze by Bonczyk and a homerun crushed by Moon. With a 4-0 lead, Gonzales finished what he started for his second complete game shutout of the season.
Game two started in a similar manner as the first with a tight contest between the starting pitchers.
Appalachian State was the first team on the board when the visitors took advantage of the third Bulldog error of the game. A throwing error put Mountaineers on the corners and the first run was pushed across on a Brandon Burris single up the middle.
The Bulldogs tied the game in almost identical fashion. Caleb Wood reached on a base hit and advanced to second on a wild throw to first base from the Mountaineers. Wood advanced to third on a Cory LeBrun groundout and scored on a Halcomb sacrifice bunt.
The game drastically shifted in seventh inning. GU start Tyler Olson (9-3) was pulled after a leadoff single for reliever Kenny Smith. Appalachian State would load the bases with one out when Michael Pierson hit a grand slam to right field giving ASU a 5-1 edge.
Smith's next pitch was behind the Mountaineers batter and as a result the home plate umpire ejected him from the game.
Andrew Sopko replaced Smith and pitched the last 2.2 inning for the Zags allowing a homerun in the eighth.
GU also scored in the seventh on a Gunsolus triple to right field but Appalachian State would take a 6-2 victory.
Gonzaga concludes its fifth and final doubleheader of the regular season. The Zags and Mountaineers conclude the series Sunday with a 3:05 p.m. first pitch.

Signing ceremony will reaffirm the schools' commitment to medical education
At a special ceremony at Gannon Old Main, Gannon University and the Lake Erie College of Osteopathic Medicine have renewed
|Gannon President Antoine Garibaldi, PhD signs the affiliation agreement while LECOM President John Ferretti, DO watches. Observing the signing are Carolynn Masters, PhD, dean of the Morosky College of Health Professions and Sciences; Keith Taylor,PhD provost and vice president for Academic Affairs; LECOM Provost, Vice President and Dean of Student Affairs Silvia Ferretti, DO and LECOM Vice President and Dean of the School of Pharmacy Hershey Bell, MD.
the affiliation agreements that allow Gannon students to continue their studies at LECOM.
Citing the mutual benefits to students and to the institutions, Gannon and LECOM have elected to continue the "4+4" agreement for LECOM's College of Osteopathic Medicine and the "2+3" agreement for LECOM's School of Pharmacy. A collaborative partnership between Gannon and LECOM led to the formation of the pre-med and pre-pharmacy programs that encourage freshmen who are enrolling at Gannon to pursue these health professions.
"These programs accelerate a student's path to medical and pharmacy school and simplify the acceptance process," said Antoine M. Garibaldi, president of Gannon University. "Students who meet the requirements for the programs in high school are conditionally accepted into both Gannon and LECOM's program simultaneously. Additionally, these students earn their doctoral degrees sometimes years faster than their peers at other institutions."
According to John M. Ferretti, D.O., President and CEO of LECOM, more than 200 Gannon students have enrolled in LECOM programs since the founding of the College in 1993. Currently, more than 45 Gannon students are enrolled in the medical and pharmacy programs at the College's Erie and Bradenton, Fla., campuses.
|Representing Gannon and LECOM:are l-r Bethany Dunsmore, Gannon Sophomore and 2+3 LECOM Pharmacy Candidate; Shalyn Quigley, Gannon Sophomore and 2+3 LECOM Pharmacy Candidate; Katherine Jones, Gannon Senior and 4+4 LECOM Medical Candidate; Kaylee Bernardini and Karey Tyler; -LECOM first-year Pharmacy Students; Hannah Tripp, LECOM first-year medical student.
"Our two institutions, working side by side within this community, have brought forth many great health care professionals who truly are making a difference in peoples' lives every day," Dr. Ferretti said. "As the increasing clamor for health care professionals continues to escalate, LECOM will remain constant in its partnership with Gannon University to afford to the Erie community and to the nation qualified and capable physicians and pharmacists who remain unsurpassed in the country."
Sarah Ewing, Ph.D., assistant professor, biology at Gannon University, is the director of the programs. A number of Gannon University faculty members, including Elisa Konieczko, Ph.D., associate professor, biology, and director of the biotechnology department; and Greg Andraso, Ph.D., associate professor, biology, also have been instrumental in the continued success of the programs.
Under the 4+4 agreement for LECOM's College of Osteopathic Medicine, students attend Gannon University for four years and graduate with a bachelor of science degree in biology or chemistry. After earning their bachelor's degree and provided they meet all requirements, which include scoring well on the Medical College Admission Test (MCAT), students then attend LECOM for four years. Students graduate from LECOM with the doctor of osteopathic medicine (D.O.) degree.
One advantage of the 4+4 program is that it is an early acceptance program, Ewing said. The program allows high school seniors to have admissions interviews with both Gannon and LECOM. As a result, qualified students are guaranteed a seat in LECOM's College of Osteopathic Medicine. "The agreement provides a measure of security for freshmen at Gannon because they know that if they fulfill all the requirements, the seat at LECOM will be there for them in four years," Ewing said. "After four years at Gannon, they will not need an admissions interview for medical school, as they typically would with many programs."
Students in the 4+4 program also have the opportunity to choose where they attend medical school: at LECOM's main campus in Erie or at campuses in Greensburg, Pa., and Bradenton, Fla.
Under the 2+3 agreement for LECOM's School of Pharmacy, students attend Gannon University for two years, followed by three years at LECOM. After five years, students graduate with the doctor of pharmacy (Pharm.D.) degree.
One advantage of the 2+3 program is that students who meet all program requirements at Gannon are guaranteed an admissions interview with LECOM. That guarantee similarly provides students with a measure of security, in terms of the opportunity to attend LECOM's School of Pharmacy.
Another benefit of the 2+3 program is that students who meet all requirements can earn the doctor of pharmacy degree in five years; some pharmacy programs require six years of study. In addition, students can choose to study at LECOM in Erie or in Bradenton.
The Gannon and LECOM 4+4 and 2+3 programs each currently have 10 students; some medical and pharmacy programs have fewer seats available.
The Lake Erie College of Osteopathic Medicine and LECOM School of Pharmacy offer innovative and affordable education in osteopathic medicine and pharmacy. From campuses in Erie, Pennsylvania, Greensburg, Pennsylvania and Bradenton, Florida, LECOM provides student-centered pathways to prepare the next generation of healthcare professionals. Prepare yourself for medicine as your life's profession.

It's premature to suggest that Bristol's new South African signing Mathew Turner will become rugby's version of Kevin Pietersen but the kid Western Province didn't want has started his senior professional career brilliantly.
Turner has represented WP U19 and was the leading try scorer in the inaugural Varsity Cup for UCT in 2008. Many respected commentators predicted a bright future in South Africa for the youngster, some even suggesting that he was ready to make the step up to senior provincial rugby.
However, despite his obvious class he was deemed surplus to requirements at U21 level at WP and sought to forge a career with Bristol in the Premiership. He debuted on Saturday against Northampton and shone in a losing cause, scoring two tries and creating a number of opportunities for teammates.
Turner holds a British passport and has already been drafted into England's Sevens 26-man training squad. If he makes an appearance for them he'll be ineligible to play for South Africa. If he continues to build on his impressive start with Bristol there is every chance that he could be considered for the England Test side for their Year End Incoming Tours, where he could face the Springboks on 22 November. England have trialled a number of wingers in recent times and the position remains a headache for them.
Prior to the 2008 season Western Province opted to contract veteran wing Wylie Human from the Lions as cover for their first-choice players in that position. The deal made no sense given that Human is 29-years-old who had seemingly hit the ceiling of his potential. Turner was yet to spring to prominence during the Super 14, but WP would have surely known what Human could offer at that stage and could have gambled on a rookie.
Turner was apparently keen to stay at WP, but was given no indication that he was in the long-term plans of the union. This prompted his decision to move once the offer from Bristol came.
Western Province are particularly guilty of allowing their best young players to be poached by rival South African unions. They've already surrendered SA U19 players Francois Hougaard and Stephan Dippenaar to the Bulls. Both went on to acquit themselves well in the Super 14. Another former Western Province junior Juandré Kruger, has deputised brilliantly in the absence of Bakkies Botha. These are just the most recent of a number of top performers the union has let slip through their fingers.
Something needs to change at the union so as to ensure that they retain their best young players. If not, WP supporters must brace for more of the disappointment they've become all too accustomed to in recent years.

This page is dedicated to the discussion of what the Groovy Shell (aka.
groovysh) and Groovy Console (aka.
groovyConsole) should be able to do in the future. So please go on and add suggestions.
Wishlist for the command-line Groovy Shell (aka.
- keep imports (DONE see
show importscommands)
- remove the requirement for the "go" command (DONE)
- proposal: read lines until one is entered WITHOUT a trailing semicolon or as long as there are open parantheses; change prompt for continuation lines
- the value of last expression evaluated is made available in a variable. The name of the variable is short , e.g. "res". It is also automatically printed to the console (including type?). (DONE The last result is saved as the {_} variable)
- alternate name: "_" or "_r"
from Dierk
- code completion for known methods, DGM, and symbols used so far
- dump transcript to file (DONE see
- nice to have: dump classes and methods that were previously defined (DONE See
show classesand
show variables, methods are wrapped in a closure and bound to variables)
- nice to have: run code in new jdb console
from Guillaume
- all the above, and...
- possibility to discard imports (since we can keep imports, let's flush them too) (DONE See
purge imports).
- Crazy idea: I'm wondering whether we could leverage ANSI colours in the shell so that we can have some text in colours (perhaps even syntax highlighting???) (DONE sans syntax highlighting right now)
from Jürgen:
- learn from Python and especially IPython (sys.displayhook etc.) (DONE There is a
- (GNU) readline support (DONE current trunk uses jline for rich buffer editing and history).
additionally: enhance ObjectBrowser to execute selected methods and change the "object under inspection" to the result of that method call. Keep an expression of how to get to that object (e.g. GPath). Let ObjectBrowser return this expression and make groovysh and groovyConsole arware of it such that groovysh user can use the inspect command to interactively construct such expressions.
Wishlist for the Swing Console (aka.
- basic syntax highlighting in source code (DONE in 1.5*)*
- line numbers (be able to turn on / off)
- be able to specify some .jar files that will be included into the classpath (DONE in 1.6)
- enable standard-de-facto ctrl+z for undo and ctrl+y for redo
- tabs
- code formatting
Debug features:
- step-by-step execution of statements
- improve variables insight for clarity

I think the ideal scripting console is IPython (interactive Python), I think we should imitate it as much as possible.
It would be so great if the Groovy Console could run 1 single session, just like the beanshell console. It really works as an interpreter. You can keep all your variables during the same session and don't have to pres "run" to re-execute the whole script from scratch each time.
I think it would be best if the shell could take a script name as an argument (i.e., "grails shell <scriptname>") and have the shell execute the script and exit, dumping output to stdout. This would be an easy way to perform administrative tasks on the datastore within the context of the application. It would also allow these tasks to be run in an unattended manner.
I cannot find where to place bug report for GroovyConsole. This is minor, but I was going through Barclay and Savage book, and one of the questions (Chapter 2, 3b) asked if a$ was a valid Groovy identifier. I thought not. but GroovyConsole lets it in.
Here try it:
def a$ = 7
println (a$ + 4)
Sorry. I looked around for maybe 30 minutes and could not find where to register GroovyConsole bugs. Maybe that is because it is almost perfect?
Hi Bradley, you enter bugs for GroovyConsole in the standard Groovy Jira: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/GROOVY
Just select the component type to be Groovy Console.
What is the bug by the way?
