Solar innovation smackdown
Designing innovative, cost-effective homes gets a boost from Solar Decathlon competition
To Ruehl, the finished SHADE home is a thing of beauty and simplicity, but with 21st century amenities.
"It's a way of saying, 'Yeah, you can be eco-friendly, you can be green, you can do all these things, but that doesn't mean you have to live in a house that is uncomfortable, is not meeting your normal temperature requirements or you're not allowed to turn the lights on,' " she says. "You can do all those things, you just have to do it in a smart way."
Each team must build its house to specified standards, with total costs not to exceed $250,000. The 10 categories each project is judged or measured by are: architecture, market appeal, engineering, communications, affordability, comfort zone, hot water, appliances, home entertainment and energy balance.
Each of the 20 teams this year has designed a house with its own special qualities. Stanford's Start.Home, for instance, features a prefabricated design with all the major appliances, systems and controls built in "similar to the motherboard of a computer." USC's fluxHome is designed to take advantage of Southern California's climate, with retractable skylights that can help modulate sunlight and breezes. Santa Clara University's DALE house (Dynamic Augmented Living Environment) consists of two prefab modules that can be moved on a rail system, allowing the house to be opened to the outside environment.
Since the first Solar Decathlon in 2002, nearly 17,000 young, creative minds on 112 teams have worked to produce actual working homes using cutting-edge technology and concepts.
Not only has it pushed the envelope, with teams thinking outside traditional boxes, but it's given students practical experience. They can hit the ground running with fresh ideas for the growing green-energy industry.
"You spend so much money going to school, so much time, you get out to the real world, it's like you're starting from scratch if you don't have experience," says Ruehl. "We were working with each other in a very formal kind of officelike environment at school, and also working with contractors and getting sponsorships and dealing with the financial side of designing something."
U.S. Department of Energy Solar Decathlon and XPO
What: Innovative, solar-powered and energy-efficient homes designed by 20 college teams from around the nation and world. The concurrent XPO is an exposition of new products and features in home design, transportation, consumer products and food production.

A split is developing among the intermediate Texas appellate courts on an issue important to civil trial lawyers and their clients: whether attorney fees must be included in the amount of security a judgment debtor must post to prevent execution on the judgment pending appeal.
Under former Texas Rule of Appellate Procedure 24.2(a)(1), an appellant seeking to supersede a money judgment had to post security in "at least the amount of the judgment, interest for the estimated duration of the appeal, and costs." House Bill 4, the 2003 tort-reform package, altered the amount of security required to supersede a money judgment by substituting "the amount of compensatory damages awarded in the judgment" for "the amount of the judgment." The Texas Supreme Court amended Rule 24.2 accordingly.

TEMECULA: Dance team steps it up at Great Oak
Great Oak team members placed third out of 15 teams the first year they competed and they placed second last year out of 20 teams that competed at Pasadena City College. Teams are judged on precision and synchronization; the uniformity of team members' arm and leg movements; originality; choreography and other factors.
At a recent after-school rehearsal, the team members hashed out ideas for new routines and talked about the upcoming competition. Letha Green told the dancers it's time to take first place and win the cash prize.
"The first year we had no story, but we won third place. It wasn't the story, it was the delivery," she told the team members gathered in the school dance room.
This year, Green told the steppers, "We have to come with the element of surprise."

Hello all,
I finally had a couple weeks to catch my breath and just chill out in Istanbul, and as promised, here is a post about what I am up to here and what life is like.
The first thing you need to know about Istanbul is that it is enormous. The exact population is somewhat debated, but the general consensus is that there are about 14,000,000 people that live in Istanbul proper, and another 3,000,000 or so commute in daily. At 14M proper residents, Istanbul checks in behind Beijing as the second biggest city in the world.
The city itself is divided in two by the Bosphorus Strait. Geographically, the city actually rests in two continents, as the Bosphorus divides Europe and Asia, so Istanbul literally straddles two continents.
This is a map of the city (you can see the city limits outlined in black on the outside). The left hand side of the city is the European half, and the right is the Asian. Also, thanks to a sweet online mapping tool I figured out that the red highlighted area is equivalent in size to the city of Boulder. It's really a big city.
Secondly, I want to take a moment to assure everyone of my safety. Despite the unrest over the summer, Istanbul was recently voted the safest of the big cities in Europe, and it has the lowest rate of petty crime. Barring one incident, I have felt totally secure during my entire stay in here, no matter the time of night. Turkey continues to have some political issues, but let's not forget that America has it's own set of embarrassing problems (for Pete's sake, our entire government shut down). I won't go into details about the issues (Internet censorship), but I will say that I have not witnessed much unrest at all, and I've only tasted tear gassed twice, and it was a very light dusting. I am safe here, don't worry.
This is Istiklal street, a row of shops just off from the Taksim Square (where this summer's protests were centered). It's sometimes hard to believe that this was once a world center for civil unrest. I mean, they even have Christmas lights up, and it's a Muslim country.
I am here as part of the Syracuse Program, and am one of just 16 students on the program (that's very small for a study abroad program, I know some friends who have over 10x that many). The program is great and I am having a ball. I am also hugely thankful to our wonderful leaders, Erika and Burak, who have taken great of us so far, and made the transition as smooth as one could hope for.
This is my group in the Harem at Topkapi Palace, which used to be the seat of the Ottoman Empire.
As far as school and such goes, it's all rolling along nicely. I am studying at Bahcesehir University, and taking classes with other Turkish students, although they are taught in English. Campus actually has more cafes on it than it does academic buildings, so I have not had the most intense semester ever. I have also taken an internship in the International Affairs Office on campus. I am in charge of most of their English language marketing materials that they put out.
This is my campus. Right on the water, it even features a rooftop cafe.
I have fallen in with a small group of locals that I play soccer with every weekend. It's a fairly eclectic group, made up of me and my roommate Conor (who is great), along with a Syrian, a couple Russians, some Saudis, a smattering of Turks, and one guy who's nationality is unknown. It's great to get out and run around, especially with such an international crew.
This marks the official international expansion of Team Deep Threat
I am living in an apt building called Republika, which we have semi-affectionately nicknamed The Pubes. It's a difficult place to describe, but if you were to cross a 4-star hotel with a mental institution you would be pretty close. Security is pretty tight (they actually have a room in the basement filled with security cam monitors, so I always feel watched), and the entire place is either very clean white plastic or painted a soothing shade of vomit green. It's pretty funky. However, in terms of location it couldn't be any better. We are in the Ortakoy neighborhood, which is a relatively affluent part of town, that is very central and has easy access to pretty much any part of the city that we could conceivably want to visit.
The city is covered with small carts like this. They usually sell chestnuts or simit (Turkish bagels).
I'm living with one other dude named Conor Hampson, and we get along great. He is from Napa, but goes to school at Bates College in Maine. We also got lucky, and the two of us were put in a three person room, so we have opened the unofficial Hotel of Two Boys to visitors. We have already had a few friends visit from out of town.
Conor and I
Delightfully, our first visitor was Max, who took a hiatus from his semester in Spain last weekend. We had a blast together and it was a fun test for me to play tour guide for a weekend (shouts to all my Ambassador buds back home). I took him to my favorite of the sights, along with a night out along one of Istanbul's many "main drags" for Halloween. However, the highlight was undoubtedly that I was lucky enough to score us tickets to the Galatasaray soccer game. The atmosphere at the game was something to behold, and I will be using it as inspiration for when I get back home to my C-Unit student section. The fans stood and sang for 90 minutes. Non-stop. To our pleasure, Galatasaray pulled back from behind to snatch a 2-1 victory, highlighted by a Didier Drogba goal which he celebrated directly in front of us.
King Didier in the flesh, photo taken by Max. For those of you that don't know, he was once named one of the Time 100 for his humanitarian work in his native Ivory Coast, and is considered one of the better strikers ever to play the game.
Our gang at the game, we actually had quite good seats.
And the dearest boy and I
Galatasaray also played cross-town rival Fenerbahce last night in the world's only intercontinental city rivalry. The city has three teams, but these two are by far the best and most popular. In all honesty, I can't do a good enough job of describing just how polarizing the intercontinental rivalry is, but this article is OK. I will say that who you support is a big deal, and whenever a local shopkeeper discovers that I am staying here for an entire semester, the first thing they ask is who I support. My answer either gets me a discount at their store, or a telling-off. Fenerbahce won 2-0.
Otherwise, I spend most of my time with friends exploring different parts of the city. It's such a big place, and the people here are so nice, that I can mostly just wander around and try and discover new pockets of life. I am confident when I say that I could spend many years here, exploring full-time, and I would still feel as though I hadn't really seen much. Every time I visit a new part of the city, or discover some cool new place, it makes me feel like I have seen even less of the city. Basically, the more I see, the less I feel like I have seen. It's sorta how I feel about the whole world these days.
The beauty of a city as immense as Istanbul is that there is always a great spot hiding around every corner, and discovering these places is a treat in and of itself. The other night, I was trying to meet up with some friends and ended up discovering one of the best disguised spots in the city:
The entry way looked like this
The second floor
Third floor
Fourth floor
Fifth floor. Sensing a theme?
But then on the rooftop you find this
With this view
As a bonus (as if I needed a bonus), the city has more history in it than I can wrap my head around. We went and visited a castle along the Bosphorus last week that is quoted as being one of Istanbul's "newer" attractions. It was built in 1453. For the sake of emphasis, Istanbul's new stuff was built before Columbus discovered the American continent.
Galata Tower. Built by the Venetians in 1348.
Inside the Haya Sofya. It was originally built as a church by Justinian in the year 537.
We also spend a reasonable amount of time in the Spice Bazaar, where Conor and I can sample infinite Turkish Delights. I make a point of wearing something outlandish every time we visit, and the shopkeepers end up being positively tickled by me, so they end being quite generous. You gotta love being able to sample so much that you can count it as a meal, it's like Whole Foods on crack.
Inside the Spice Bazaar
Arguably my favorite part of Istanbul is the food. These Turks have a very fundamental understanding one of the basic tenets of the my diet - portions should be larger than my head. The food on the street corner is often just as good as any white table cloth restaurant and much cheaper, and the variety that is available is enormous.
This is my favorite Doner stand. When I discovered it, I showed this picture to my local friends, and they all knew it. They simply referred to this place as "Doner Allah" or the God of Doner.
This semester, I have adopted a philosophy pioneered by a friend of mine called "The Semester of Yes." Basically, that means that while I am here, if something sounds fun or interesting to me, I do it. No questions asked. If it's expensive, but I think it's worth it, I do it. If I have a schedule conflict or something of the sort, I put all else aside and try and make it happen. I have booked trips to Rome and Amsterdam, and am working on a time to visit Azerbaijan to visit my Auntie Rita. I'm making a concerted effort not to make excuses and pull the trigger, because ultimately, what is a few extra bucks when I get home compared to 5 days in Rome. The way I see it, go for it now while I have the chance, and figure the rest out some other time.
If you get up high enough, you can see apartment complexes for as far as the eye can see
So I sorta just chill out and do my thing, max fun all the time. I do miss home sometimes, but I just take it as a sign that I'm bored, so whenever I get a little sad I just try and get up and go do something more stimulating. It basically means that I'm always moving, which is great.
There is no "downtown" Istanbul. It is so big that it has many, many city centers. This is looking across the Golden Horn towards Galata Tower and the Taksim area.
The Blue Mosque. The only mosque in the world with six minarets. Ironically it was built to commemorate an tiny Ottoman victory, and is basically a giant grandiose symbol of the collapse of the Ottoman Empire.
I also need to take a moment to wish a happy birthday to my Father, who would have been 61 on Friday. There has never been a finer man, and I can not begin to describe his impact on my life, even in his death. Miss you old man.
So overall, life is great out here in the Eastern Hemisphere, and somehow I continue to be able to click on all cylinders. I have the distinct pleasure of going to bed every night humbled by the day I had, and I try and take a little bit of time every evening to reflect on at least one thing that I learned in the previous day. The world is a big place, so I might as well try and pick up a thing or two.
The bridge across the Bosphorus connecting Europe to Asia
If you time it right, and catch a ferry around 4:30-5, you can catch an unobstructed view of the sunsetting behind the minarets of the Haya Sophia and Blue Mosque.
I hope all of you at home are doing well, and if you ever get the urge, drop me a line. I promise to respond. I still don't know the exact date of my return, but it'll be sometime in January, so I'll see y'all then.
From the City of the World's Desire,

Originally written on The Other Paper | Last updated 11/14/14
Colin Kaepernick kicked off his NFL playoff career with flying colors Saturday and — after the 49ers quarterback shredded the Packers defense for 181 yards on the ground and 263 through the air — head coach Jim Harbaugh finally had good reason to stop his hand-wringing about replacing Alex Smith with his record-setting QB. If Harbaugh was breathing easy about making the right choice with his precocious new quarterback and the 45-31 victory, he wasn't gloating about it after the game. As the 49ers prepare to face the winner of the Seahawks-Falcons game in the NFC Championship Game next Sunday, a solemn Harbaugh gave credit to the entire Niners squad and said it was a "great team victory" and that they "competed like maniacs," at his postgame presser. Harbaugh is in the NFC title game for the second straight year, and it gives him a chance to meet his brother, Ravens coach John Harbaugh, in the Super Bowl if everything falls in place. Asked at what point he found out his brother had won his game against the Broncos, the 49ers coach tried to brush off the hypothetical question but said, "Somewhere in the first quarter, I believe... "We want to study for the (NFC Championship Game) test," he added.

From the Publisher"C. S. Lewis once suggested that it would be a boon to be able to have a real live Epicurean at our elbow when reading Lucretius or to learn from a mouse or bee's perspective; so Professor David Clark gives us the enlarged pleasure of reading Lewis with a sensible and good-humored theologian by our side. This is no stale and stuffy pedantic writing, but a lively, witty, and fully engaging translation of Lewis's thoughts on Christian doctrines of faith and redemption (and a bit of Purgatory). With clarity and piercing insight, Professor Clark guides us merry fellow pilgrims along Lewis' own spiritual and intellectual journey, pointing out hidden trails, narrow paths, and fascinating facts and myths along the way."
Terry Lindvall, Virginia Wesleyan College
"Professor Clark writes with the confidence of one whose broad and informed acquaintance with the Lewis canon allows him to speak authoritatively about Lewis's theology and use of Scriptural tradition."
Bruce L. Edwards, Bowling Green State University
"A very winsome book – nicely poised between a comprehensive introduction for the reader new to Lewis and a holistic treatment of the varied literary output in the Lewis canon for Lewis admirers … The chief contribution of this work lies in [Clark's] steady treatment of Lewis's use of Scripture and the Scriptural basis of his own imaginative works … This work walks the tightrope between saying too much and saying just enough from the perspective of a Biblical scholar who also well understands the nature and narrative and why Lewis wrote as he did. Very good for individual or group study."

Strange question about running a different OS
I was doing some reading and came across BeOS.
It was written by a bunch of former apple developers and was designed to run on Intel and PowerPC processors.
The company went out of business a decade ago, so I have no idea where to start.
So my question is: has anyone on this forum ever gotten BeOS to run on their PowerPC Mac?
|Apr 25, 2012, 03:11 AM
BeOS.. sigh... Be.inc.. Sigh... lots and lots of great memories there... It led me to Apple.
BeOS in its incarnations never ran on anything more modern than the G3 on apples side, It ran on lots and lots of x86 hardware. R5.03 (looking at the box now) was the latest version that i bought and it was a joy to use. Lots and lots of great people developing for it in those days..
I retired my last BeOS machine in 2010 (dual P3 1.2ghz) with voodoo3 vid in it. Loved it and boy did it rocket over anything that was available OS-wise at the time.
I am sure the PE (public Edition) of R5 is still available somewhere for download and if you have some old x86 hardware lying around, take it for a spin.
There were a few people trying to push the OS further when Be.inc finally pulled the pin and collapsed. Notibably Yellow Tab, and now as far as i am aware, there is only the ongoing Haiku project.
Not sure where they are up to now as i havent had the time to put into pet OS'es for quite a few years.
Have a look, i see they have a live cd you can burn by the looks of things, also note that by the screenies, it looks like its based on the never released version of BeOS that came after R5.03. (the code name slips my mind at this stage)...
sigh, thanks for the trip down memory lane
Love BeOS.... a lot!!! ; )

When work starts anew, the corpses of the workers killed on the site come back to life, in DEADHUNTER: SEVILLIAN ZOMBIES (2003). Beatriz Mateo, Jose Pedro Gil star in this Spanish shockfest. Next, the Keystone State falls victim to another invasion of the flesh-feasting undead, as the middle of DEAD SUMMER (2006) finds a Pennsylvania small town overrun by zombies. The terror mounts as one individual in the midst of a small band of survivors becomes a "person of interest" to the military. SRP: $24.99

This oversized, glossy atlas packs an impressive combination of over 200 maps and 400 color graphics with a strong effort toward worldwide coverage. Examples of notable items include reproductions of historical maps like a 1562 map of the Americas and photos supporting discussion on religion in Pacific Island nations. As the book aims to offer a chronological as well as a visual history, scholarly text typically running four to nine paragraphs accompanies each map. For example, the book's first section, "Religions of the Ancient World," compares a Jewish psalm and an Ugaritic hymn. The following four sections include "Foundations of Organized Religion," "Rise of the Major Religions," "Colonial Era to the 20th Century," and "Religions of the World Today." This plan encourages consideration of concurrent developments, and a 20-page time line is even inserted between Sections 3 and 4. Yet the plan also divides discussion across chapters regarding a specific place or religion.

So 82% of gamefaqs doesn't want an Xbone
Ch3wy posted...
Because GameFAQs is filled with weeaboos, trolls, babies, kids, whiners, and morons. Just like the rest of the internet.
Always O.G.
Come under my bridge
I'll give you gold
Xbox wins poll = Trolls saying site is full of MS supporters
PS4 wins poll = Trolls saying site is full of Sony supporters.
Wii wins poll = Trolls saying site is full of Nintendo supporters.
Troll logic fail. Seems legit.
ILikesCheese and shadestreet's re-posted message by ejay8320 are right on the money. I think a lot of people ignore these reasons and try to chalk it up to fanboys of other consoles, but that just doesn't jive. Only a handful of people on this site dedicate themselves to one specific console, while I truly believe that the majority of Gamefaqs has a love for games, regardless of what console they are on.
Microsoft's initial anti-consumerist attitude and the flippant way the responded to the criticism of that attitude, is what turned a lot of people off to the Xbox One.

I haven't played a JRPG since 2004 and I wouldn't take a free Xbox One if MS came to my door. Does that make you wrong?
Sample sizes are fun.
Also, from what I can see on this site:
1. JRPG's are badmouthed constantly
2. Whenever I look at the top ten lists, the 360 version is always at the top
3. Whenever I look up a FAQ for a game, most of them are written for 360.
Stop acting like the picked on victim. Microsoft made their own bed, so let them lie in it.
It's not like I'm getting a PS4 either, but I'd at least take one and gift it to someone else.
Console war in a nutshell:
I'm not going to say X1 will be the top console this next gen, but I think we could safely say Gamefaqs doesn't represent or reflect the gaming audience today. If it were up to gamefaqs, CoD would not be as big as it is, and GTA 5 would've flopped.

The reason I want a PS4 is because I import games and Xbone is region locked.
See you Space Cowboy. - PSN Suppleness
people are so butthurt that people would rather want a ps4 over a X1. but it's pretty much fact that people prefer ps4 over X1 and the polls prove it. even if people were double voting, the polls wouldn't be so one-sided.
sure gamefaqs is a minority of the population of the world, but it's a community of serious gamers who know what they want in gaming. I know what i want in gaming. i love JRPGs (yes i'm a weaboo but i could care less about what you think) and X1 doesn't show any promise to having any of these sort of games which is why i prefer ps4.
I'm boycotting the Xbone because M$ tried to f*ck the gamers.
If some of you guys still want to buy one, go, but there will never ever be a Xbone in my house.

Exactly. Saying gamefaq polls count for less than **** is delusional. They aren't perfect (find me a poll that is) and the questions don't always host the most appealing or reasonable decisions, but they're far from beingcompletely irrelevant like some people are trying so desperately to believe.

In a sensational pursuit, Kolkata Knight Riders chased down an imposing 191 to win its first Indian Premier League title at the M.A. Chidambaram Stadium, here, on Sunday.
Requiring nine off the final over, two Manoj Tiwary boundaries off paceman Dwayne Bravo enabled the spirited Kolkata side register a triumph with two balls remaining. The dependable Jacques Kallis (69 off 49) and an inspired Manvinder Singh Bisla (89 off 48) set up the win.
Chennai Super Kings' dream of an IPL hat-trick remained unfulfilled. The side's bowling was ordinary and fielding lacklustre. Despite a mountain of runs, the host was unable to build pressure. As the chase neared conclusion, there were two championship-defining moments.
Michael Hussey, on his 37th birthday, leapt and seemed to have pulled off a spectacular catch at the mid-wicket fence to dismiss Jacques Kallis. The Aussie, however, stepped over the line taking the sphere with him. The resultant six took Kallis from 56 to 62.
Then, Ben Hilfenhaus, soon after prising out Kallis with a full toss, sent down a no-ball for height in the final ball of the 19th over.In the extra delivery that followed, Shakib-Al-Hasan directed one over short-fine leg to the fence. Knight Riders now required only nine from the final over. The visitors had the final say.
During the chase, the solid Kallis' refined technique and clean strokes off either feet lifted the levels of batsmanship. He played an exquisite straight-drive off R. Ashwin and a flowing cover-drive off left-arm spinner Shadab Jakati.
Bisla slashed and flashed boundaries square off the wicket, cover-drove with panache and pulled with daring. The manner in which Bisla converted the length pegged back the CSK bowlers. Ashwin and Bravo suffered.
The right-hander, however, was fortunate when a leaping Hilfenhaus could not cling on to a Bisla offering off Ashwin.Bisla, eventually, succumbed to a slower delivery from Albie Morkel.
The unheralded Bisla had been a controversial inclusion in the side as the KKR think-tank – to maintain the balance of its attack – dropped the game-changing Brendon McCullum to include paceman Brett Lee in one of the four overseas slots. And Bisla came in as a wicket-keeper batsman for injured paceman L. Balaji.
The Knight Riders' start was disastrous. Its skipper Gautam Gambhir heaved against a slower delivery from Ben Hilfenhaus to be castled.
Raina runs riot
On a belter, the runs flowed in a cascade. Powered by an astonishing 38-ball 73 by Suresh Raina, Chennai Super Kings sped to what appeared to be a highway to victory after winning the toss.
CSK, then, got most things right. An impact player with a liking for the big stage in the IPL, Raina could not have picked a better moment to blaze away.
Predictably, Brett Lee bounced at him. Raina's response took the Aussie speedster by surprise though.
The left-hander pulled for a massive six over mid-wicket.
When Jacques Kallis banged one in short, Raina unleashed another pull for a maximum.
Although, the name of the surface could have assisted Raina in his methods, the southpaw deserves credit for a brave and uncluttered mindset.
In a pivotal moment of the innings, Raina danced down to 'mystery' spinner Sunil Narine and smoked him over the mid-wicket ropes. This was his favourite scoring area of the day.
Raina reading Narine capably, struck the bowler straight for a six.
The sea of yellow in the stadium appeared like waves as the crowd swayed to the rhythm of the stroke.
The southpaw also displayed another aspect of his batsmanship by playing with the spin and gliding a Narine delivery turning away from him, with soft hands and deft touch.
Hussey, solid yet enterprising, kept one end going.
Audacious strike
The versatile left-hander sashayed down the track to pummel Lee over his head.
This was an audacious strike, yet the execution underlined the southpaw's control.And not too many non-subcontinental batsmen play with as much finesse behind square on both sides of the wicket as Hussey does.
Knight Riders' ploy of Shakib Al Hasan sharing the new ball was negated by the left-handed Hussey taking much of the strike against the left-arm spinner.
Hussey reverse-swept Shakib but could not beat the man at short third-man. Not surprisingly he repeated the stroke and, this time, managed to place the ball to the left of the fielder.
And the Aussie's sweep off Shakib soared over the long-on fence. The decibel levels rose in the arena.
At the other end, Vijay, circumspect to begin with, freed his arms against Lee. Rajat Bhatia was brought in to deny pace to the batsmen, but he was smoked through the off-side by Vijay
But then, it was Bhatia who ended the rollicking opening stand — 87 runs in 10.2 overs — when Vijay's (42 off 32 balls) on-side heave was splendidly held by Shakib.
Hussey (54 off 43) failed to connect a swipe off Kallis, but Raina continued to plunder the bowling. And the beating of the drums grew louder.

The effect of pre-storm subsurface thermal structure on the intensity of hurricane Katrina (2005) is examined using a regional coupled model. The Estimating Circulation and Climate of Ocean (ECCO) ocean state estimate is used to initialize the ocean component of the coupled model, and the source of deficiencies in the simulation of Katrina intensity is investigated in relation to the initial depth of 26 °C isotherm (D26). The model underestimates the intensity of Katrina partly due to shallow D26 in ECCO. Sensitivity tests with various ECCO initial fields indicate that the correct relationship between intensity and D26 cannot be derived because D26 variability is underestimated in ECCO. A series of idealized experiments is carried out by modifying initial ECCO D26 to match the observed range. A more reasonable relationship between Katrina's intensity and pre-storm D26 emerges: the intensity is much more sensitive to D26 than to sea surface temperature (SST). Ocean mixed layer process plays a critical role in modulating inner-core SSTs when D26 is deep, reducing mixed layer cooling and lowering the center pressure of the Katrina. Our result lends strong support to the notion that accurate initialization of pre-storm subsurface thermal structure in prediction models is critical for a skillful forecast of intensity of Katrina and likely other intense storms.

Old Main reflects the respect we have for our heritage and the value we place on God's provision. Combined with Century House, this is the first facility Dr. Cedarholm would have visited on campus and has, since 1968, served the Maranatha family very well. Every student who has attended Maranatha has taken at least one class in the building, and many recitals, performances, and meetings have occurred within these walls.
In preparation for the fiftieth anniversary of Maranatha in Watertown, there are several projects that need to be accomplished:
- Phase 1, the "Necessary Project," involves construction of two handicap-accessible restrooms on first floor of Old Main. This $25,000 project has been funded by the Alumni Association.
- Phase 2 involves reconstruction of the East Entrance to Old Main. This is the formal entrance to campus and is also the location of the Cedarholms' gravesites. We propose to enhance this approach to the building with a new stair entrance from the parking lot, new landscaping, replacement of the Academy windows on the east wall, and upgrades to the front porch as required. This project's estimated cost is $100,000.
- Phase 3 involves replacing of the HVAC system utilized for the Academic Offices and the Main Conference Room. This project's estimated cost is $20,000.
- Phase 4 involves renovation of the first floor corridors of Old Main. This $155,000 project will include enhancements like a new entry system into the first floor of Old Main, new ceilings and lights, new wall surfaces, and new flooring.
The improvements to Old Main will total $300,000. As of May 31, 2014, we have raised $115,000 of the $125,000 needed for these first two projects. We are seeking to raise the balance of the $185,000.
Our prayer is to be able to complete the renovations of Old Main during the summer of 2015. Your gift for this project will help this grand building continue to support the mission of Maranatha Baptist University to develop leaders for ministry in the local church and the world "To the Praise of His Glory."

The National Labor Relations Board (NLRB or the "Board") released a report providing important guidance to employers on drafting social media policies that comply with its interpretation of labor laws. The report draws on several recent cases addressing employer policies limiting the use of social media by employees, and builds on a similar report issued last fall.
According to a press release issued by the Board, the report underscores two main points:
•Employer policies should not be so sweeping that they prohibit the kinds of activity protected by federal labor law, such as the discussion of wages or working conditions among employees.
•An employee's comments on social media are generally not protected if they are mere gripes not made in relation to group activity among employees.

Often the art market is enduring what can only be described as a new boom presently, rapidly economic gloom in addition to predictions of job cutbacks and hard times onward. The demand for everyone sorts of lady from English ceramics to help Russian sculpture has never been so high. Prices on auctions and in art galleries seem to be increasing and climbing and feature no sign connected with slowing down. The demand has had a new knock on effect inside high street likewise. And the influence connected with TV makeover packages, the current craze for artworks has resulted in an increase in the availability of prints, prints in addition to canvases. Original lady and limited edition marks can be expensive nevertheless so the increased affinity for canvas printing is absolutely not as surprising as it might at the beginning appear.
Shopping for artwork, can definitely original or maybe a replica printer, is still very costly and if it can be a print then expense is very much less defensible, viable than in the event that you where buying a different item. That said consumers are looking at developing their own artwork using own photographs. Canvas printing is absolutely not a new happening but after regarding being relatively exceptional, a result of the price, the process in addition to service is now the same amount of the main makeup of the standard as photo producing or buying a photography frame. There are various strategies to create your unique canvas printing along with the service is already widely available for the standard, on the internet and via mail get.
But you will discover two a breeze routes for her to get your own printer. The cheapest paper printing option should be to babies. Shopping for all the materials is straightforward with the majority of things being for sale in any good BUILD-IT-YOURSELF or hardware store. Generating a stretch for any canvas is a case regarding a time decent real wood, cutting the required lengths and generating a shaped design. The luxury of repeating this yourself is always that if you prefer an unusual shaped canvas then that is definitely possible.
The majority of the standard retailers that supply the service solely cater for square as well as rectangular shaped layouts. Canvas put in at home to get hold of and even dense cotton sheet will likely be good enough for any canvas producing. The messiest the main process is definitely sticking or transferring the image onto the paper. An effective way should be to print your impression onto standard copy pieces of paper and glue it on top of the stretched paper. This isn't strictly discussing canvas printing but creates a satisfactory final result. True canvas producing involves actually transferring often the printed ink onto often the canvas and there are chemicals accessible for this. They are really either used on the canvas possibly the image and the two materials pressed together. You will discover kits accessible for this approach to help canvas printing and in addition they take out every one of the hassle associated with to buy every one of the materials by yourself. They also incorporate comprehensive recommendations. Although this canvas producing is easy to try and do and the benefits can be very profitable, its biggest screwing up is that it is definitely messy and sometimes the image reflects that.

This morning at 2am I laid my sweet little sleeping boy down in his crib for the second time. Then out of no where my delirous sleep deprived mind started with...
Three blind mice, three blind mice, she how they run, see how they run.
Then it occured to me. That is just not a nice song for little ones... it goes on
They all run after the farmers wife, she cut of their tails with a carving knife... three blind mice.
Huh. Just an observation.

Dogs love nothing more than to get out and play – and sometimes they play rough. That can mean bumps, bruises, cuts and scrapes, so every dog owner should be prepared to treat their dog in case of a minor boo-boo or a more major injury. Pre-made first aid kits can come in handy, but they often don't contain enough of the key essentials to fixing up your pet when he needs it most. Taking a DIY approach and building your own first aid kit will ensure that you have everything you need – and enough of it.
Here are some of the key building blocks of a great canine first aid kit:
· Sterile gauze and non-adhesive pads: To help keep wounds safely covered, these items are indispensable.
· Bandaging tape: This flexible bandaging material adheres to itself, but is gentle on skin and fur. Wrap it over the top of gauze pads, or use it to secure splints. Vetrap, made by 3M, is a reliable brand.
· Flexible adhesive tape: Widely used by runners for support that stays put, adhesive tape – slightly stronger than bandaging tape – is helpful for keeping wound dressings in place. Elastikon is one top option.
· Scissors: Keep two kinds in your first aid kit – regular scissors and bandage scissors. Regular scissors are helpful in a variety of situations, but bandage scissors are a much safer option for when you have to cut close to your dog's skin – there's much less risk of a puncture or cut if your dog moves suddenly.
· Antiseptic wash or wipes – Helpful for cleaning out any cuts or puncture wounds your dog might get. Iodine is also an effective, gentle choice.
· Thermometer – Monitoring your dog's body temperature can be critical in emergency situations, so keeping a thermometer on hand is essential.
· Syringe – A helpful tool for administering fluids orally, or for flushing out wounds (using only sterile solutions).
· Antibiotic ointment – Place on a non-stick wound pad covering punctures or cuts to prevent infection.
· Saline solution – Useful for flushing out eyes.
· Rescue Remedy for Pets: This homeopathic solution made of flower essences can help calm a dog down.
· Wooden splints – In case you need to secure a limb that you believe might be broken.
Keeping a supply of water and food (like a container or two of dry Sojos Complete, ready to be soaked) is also a good idea. Bring your emergency kit with you wherever you take your dog, whether it's the dog park or out on a camping trip – you might even consider keeping an extra kit in your car.
Make sure you talk with your holistic vet, who can advise you on the treatment measures you should perform at home, but knowing you have the tools in a kit will help keep your pet safe and keep your peace of mind!

My wife and I both have data it would be quite expensive to recreate on our PCs. Losing it isn't an option.
I subscribed to CrashPlan a year ago after a close call with my DIY backup system using an external USB drive. CrashPlan allows me to back up any PC at this location, and my laptop where ever it is. My wife and I both have PC's with twin 500Gb drives connected as the C: drive in RAID 1. We also have an external USB drive. CrashPlan backs up the PC's to both their central server and to the USB connected drives. The CrashPlan SW is easy to set up (couple of minutes) and so far works perfectly. It is amazingly flexible. I can back up any PC to any other PC here or offsite or to any HD connected to any other PC here or offsite.
The RAID 1 connection covers us for disk failures and prevents related data corruption. I've had 2 disk crashes in 5 years - the second one was what prompted the subscription to CrashPlan. I have a spare drive on the shelf ready to swap out. The disk controller SW takes care of updating the new drive to match the one that didn't fail over night. The USB drive covers us for op system issues or a virus. The off site backup covers us for things like lightening strikes or fires.
Any backup scheme that doesn't automatically store a copy of the data off site is not complete coverage. The off site restore is slow, but it's a lot faster than trying to recreate the data and much more efficient that losing the data.

Matt Harvey sure looked ready for prime time last night. In his major league debut, Harvey pitched 5.1 scoreless innings, did not allow a run and broke Tom Seaver's franchise record for strikeouts in a debut. And for good measure, Harvey went 2-for-2 at the plate with a double. He finished the night with 11 strikeouts and it was fun to watch a Mets starter blow the ball past opposing hitters. According to Brooks Baseball, Harvey averaged 94.88 miles per hour with his four-seam fastball and topped out at 98. According to FanGraphs, here are the average fastball velocities for the other starters for the Mets this season: Niese – 90.6 Gee – 90.2 Santana – 88.4 Young – 84.4 Dickey – 83.4 FanGraphs does not distinguish between two and four-seam fastballs, and as Harvey had two fastballs that weren't four-seamers, his overall FG fastball velocity will be a few ticks lower. Still, this is a substantial difference in velocity. The 2012 leaderboards show 17 qualified starters with an average...

Have I told you about the scent of jasmine? Have I spoken about the smell of the sea? The earth is scented. And I perfume myself to enhance what I am. That's why I can not wear a perfume that bothers me. Perfuming is an instinctive wisdom. And like all art, it requires some knowledge of yourself..."

In the mood for something uncomplicated: Jil Sander Sun.
It is known that there are an infinite number of worlds, simply because there is an infinite amount of space for them to be in. However, not every one of them is inhabited. Any finite number divided by infinity is as near nothing as makes no odds, so the average population of all the planets in the Universe can be said to be zero. From this it follows that the population of the whole Universe is also zero, and that any people you may meet from time to time are merely products of a deranged imagination.
Douglas Adams
Oh Roberto, what a fabulous scent! I love those notes. And I saw a photo of the insanely gorgeous guy who runs the company too. Meeeeow! One to investigate...
Today I'm in a Miller Harris scent - Feuilles de Tabac - which is very autumnal to my mind. It smells brown. The weather has turned here and it's now a little chilly in the mornings when I walk Small to Kindergarten. Usually it gets warmer by lunchtime and yesterday was fabulously sunny at 27C. But that little nip to the air means I am thinking of putting away my High Summer perfumes until next year.
I've become a bit obsessed with Miller Harris, I must admit. I am currently stalking a bottle of Fleur de Bois on a certain internet auction site. Should I bid on it? Will I like it? It would be a blind buy. Ach I'm rubbish at decisions. I'll tell you later whether or not I decide to place a bid.
I hope you all have a grand Monday. Hugs to anyone who would like them.

Started out the day in Mac Naked Honey which I think is perfect for a pretty, spring day with all it's honeysuckle and jasmine. I hate that this one was limited
Now wearing (recently purchased) Van Cleef & Arpels First which is an entirely different tone from Naked Honey and I feel very sophisticated in it. My mother was horrified that I want to wear this and she exclaimed 'Stef, it smells like something your Nonna (grandmother) would wear!' to which I have to laugh because she loves Vera Wang princess and I love First... a bit of generation swapping going on there

Wordbird - Fleurs de Bois is a little bit like A Scent, but less "clean and mainstream", and with more facets to it - it moves from very green to more floral as it goes on. It is Sarah Vine, Beauty Editor of The Times's favourite scent, as it happens. It is also my favourite of the line, and if the bottle is a bargain, you won't regret it I am sure.
Me, I am in JM Vanilla & Anise, as I have to go to the doc's, so a mishmash wouldn't be seemly.
"So many scents, so little skin"...
Mmmmm, lurrrrrv Feuilles de Tabac, Wordie.
I'm in Jardins de Bagatelle, and reaping the compliments. Wonder if I am mistaken, but could swear that it has a quick moment of leather and tuberose in its middle. Have never noticed that before today, though.
Thanks, VM!

But once you get locked into a serious perfume collection, the tendency is to push it as far as you can.

Beet lifted jasmine, the way a bullnecked partner lifts a ballerina, and the pair came on stage on citron's fluty cue. As if jasmine were a collection of beautiful paintings, beet hung it in the galleries of the nose, insured it against fire or theft, threw a party to celebrate it. Citron mailed the invitations."

It was an exhausting but rewarding weekend here at Stately Somerville Manor. The Artist in Residence, my wife, had the art show she is co-curator of open yesterday. Saturday was all business getting the space ready for Sunday's opening. Sunday was a blast I got to be a bartender as I poured the wine and sparkling water and gave a little explanation of the pieces behind my station. The opening was a huge success as over 500 people, in a touch over three hours, come through. Best for me was that my station was near my wife's piece and I got to hear many people talk about how much they liked it. I am so proud of the effort she puts into her art and into the community of artists. She, like I, was exhausted last night. I wore Bois des Iles for my bartending stint yesterday.
Today I am wearing something my "fragrance mule" brought back for me from Paris
Etat Libre D'Orange Fat Electrician
The more things I wear from Etat Libre D'Orange the more I realize how much I like the risks the House takes. One of the noses for the House who has regularly seemed to connect with my sensibilities is Antoine Maisondieu. Three of my favorites, Noel au Balcon, Vierges et Toreros and Rossy de Palma, are his compositions. When I heard M. Maisondieu had done a "semi-modern vetiver" for the line I knew the 2009 release Fat Electrician would be interesting, and it is. Fat Electrician has the most in common with Vierges et Toreros of the three scents I mentioned previously. It has a strength around its central note that pushes the envelope. Much like the raw leather accord in Vierges et Toreros the vetiver in Fat Electrician comes off rawer and more unrefined than it does in other scents. I like it because it makes it stand out from those other vetivers that I own. The description that comes in the box claims M. Maisondieu is trying to create a "white, metallic, silver' vibe at the top. I'm not sure I get that, what I get is a raw green, grassy accord with a healthy amount of cigarette. This is carried forward into the heart where the vetiver comes in quite intensely and quite green. The smokiness of the cigarettes combine marvelously with the edgy pungent vetiver. The transition into the base, again, according to the note list is supposed to be a gourmand-like "chestnut creme". I don't get that at all as instead I get a great resinous mix of opoponax and myrrh which really finishes it nicely on me. I think I'm pretty thankful that the gourmand notes don't appear on me as I think I might not like this as well as I do if they were present. Fat Electrician has great longevity and decent sillage. Fat Electrician is different than any of the vetivers I currently own and while I think it is definitely worth a try by any vetiver lover it is not going to be one loved by every one of those vetiver lovers. If you do like your vetiver on the strong side invite a Fat Electrician over you might find him to be more interesting than you might think.

No. 5 Eau Première. It's not autumnal here yet. It's supposed to get up to 85 F today. But it's cooler now in the mornings, which is nice.
Have a good one!
I'm feeling dead-tired after the weekend but happy we had such a good time. I can catch up on sleep in the winter :-)
SotD is the very last drop of Fleur Blanche from my friend, Kumquat :-) I love this so much and can't wait til I get Printemps in my hands!

Good morning eveyone !
After complaining about how desert like and hot it was over the weekend, God heard me and it actually rained here this morning . It's much cooler and feels more fall - like. Whenever it rains here I am amazed and surprised.
This morning I am wearing Beyond Love By Kilian.
For sale. Carnal Flower and Vero Profumo Onda.
I'm wearing Bois de Violette today.
I'm having lunch with my mother today, and then we will go grocery shopping.
Have a wonderful day!

Good Morning, all. I cannot fathom that today is the first day of convocation week (yes, we devote a whole week to convocation -- seems a bit much to me) and that next Monday I will be back in teaching mode again. Probably because, as lilybelle already posted, it does not feel like fall yet. (I think she said "autumnal" though.)
SOTD is Bel Respiro, which will hopefully keep me happy and still be unobtrusive enough to go undetected amongst the perfume haters in the crowd. Take care all, and have a splendid Monday!
A grey, rainy but warm day here.
I was wearing Noir de Noir for work.
Later, at home, after a bath,
Samsara body cream.

Ignore my previous remark re: rogue leather note in the middle of Jardins de Bagatelle. It's all rot. I realised that it was a cheeky smear of Piguet's Cravache that was still lingering on that square inch of skin ...
Vera Profumo - Kiki today.
Last of the sample. Sigh.....

so anyway my SotD is
Aqua Di Parma's Iris Nobile
it doesn't fit the name because while the scent has traces of iris in the top notes and the drydown it leans to a light white floral for the most part

Diving back into work with a vengeance this week - all kinds of craziness going on, but mostly "good crazy." Launching a completely overhauled web site in 2-3 weeks and started training staff on how to use a new content management system to make the site work; also writing lots of educational and media pieces on various aspects of healthcare, including reform.
SoTD: Right! Anticipating a fairly warm, sunny day today I reached for Lancome Climat. A fine, light floral aldehyde, though I could've done with a slightly heavier application. Despite the boatload of notes, I mostly get champagne fizz and light wildflowers on a pale vetiver base. Fortunately, I really love all of those elements!
Climat notes: Top notes are violet, peach, jasmine, lily-of-the-valley, bergamot, rose and narcissus; middle notes are aldehydes, rosemary and tuberose; base notes are sandalwood, tonka bean, amber, musk, civet, bamboo and vetiver.

Its thought that people who hope too much will just waste their life away and never get down to doing any real work. Theyre confusing Hope with Wish, its lazy cousin... When Wish whispers, Something is just around the corner, what comes or not is never what was wished for. When Hope whispers Something is just around the corner, something always is. -- Charlie Elberson
My sale thread has some of my underappreciated fragrances looking for a good, new home...
A La Nuit SOTE
SotD was Hermes Gentiane Blanche again today. I really like its bitter, green stemmy-ness, and wearing it under my sleeves helped that note last quite a bit longer. It is very light, but still perceptible now almost 12 hours later (3 sprays to each arm).
SotE is Guerlain Vol de Nuit extrait.

Sous le Vent today. Thank you Asha!!
This is a very nice chypre. I almost wrote that it was the best newer chypre, but isn't it a re-issue of an oldie?
In enjoyed it very much. Even the lavender is delicious and I am not a lavender kind of girl.
Sunnyfunny, I am sorry you are having a hard time at work...me too!, everybody is lovely, except for the one person that really can make my life difficult.
