Need a vacation? Take a digital one with GUESS and their spring 2013 ad campaign. They're bringing mint green jeans back on the scene with a pair of very fresh overdyed cut-off shorts.

Wrangler is releasing jeans that will take one step out of your morning beauty routine, provided you're stepping into a pair of them. They're moisturizing jeans, which, in theory, means smoother gams and happier you. Aptly named Denim Spa, they promise anti-cellulite components and moisturizers from natural elements like apricot kernel oil, rosehip oil, and passion fruit oil. Too good to be true? We'll have to wait and see.
"The jeans—which will retail for $135 and be sold on ASOS—come in three different "finishes:" Aloe Vera, Olive Extract, and Smooth Legs (the supposed cellulite-fighter), but there is one caveat: The effects of the ingredients only last up to 15 days (around 67-95 wears), but a reloading spray will also available to buy." (Stylecaster)

Why Do Birds Migrate?
Why do some birds fly thousands of miles back and forth between breeding and non-breeding areas every year whereas others never travel at all?
One textbook explanation suggests either eating fruit or living in non-forested environments were the precursors needed to evolve migratory behavior.
Not so, report a pair of ecologists from The University of Arizona in Tucson. The pressure to migrate comes from seasonal food scarcity.
"It's not just whether you eat insects, fruit, nectar or candy bars or where you eat them — it matters how reliable that food source is from day-to-day," said W. Alice Boyle. "For example, some really long-distance migrants like Arctic Terns are not fruit-eaters."
Boyle, an adjunct lecturer in UA's department of ecology and evolutionary biology and co-author Courtney J. Conway, a UA assistant professor of natural resources and a research scientist with the U.S. Geological Survey, report their findings in the March 2007 issue of American Naturalist.
To figure out the underlying pressures that drive some birds to leave home for the season, the team wanted to examine a related set of species and compare their size, food type, habitat, migratory behavior and whether they fed in flocks.
Boyle and Conway focused on 379 species of New World flycatchers from the suborder Tyranni. One of the largest groups of New World birds, the Tyranni includes kingbirds, flycatchers, phoebes and such southern Arizona birdwatchers' delights as vermillion flycatchers and rose-throated becards. Tropical members include manakins and cotingas.
First the scientists had to construct the first "supertree" for New World flycatchers.
"No one has ever compiled all those birds together into one megafamily tree," Boyle said, adding that "supertree" is a technical term among evolutionary biologists.
Having the tree let the researchers compare a variety of traits across the many species of Tyranni by using a computer analysis called phylogenetic independent contrasts.
The technique allowed the scientists to sort out whether a bird was migratory because that's what species on their side of the family tree always did or whether the bird's travel habits had some ecological correlates.
Food scarcity was the number one issue that predicted a species' migratory behavior, the team found. Boyle said, "Food availability is the underlying process, not diet and habitat."
One strategy for dealing seasonal changes in food availability is migration. The team also found that species that forage in flocks are less likely to migrate.
"If you are faced with food scarcity, you have two options," Boyle said. "You can either forage with other birds or you can migrate."
When birds band together to search for food, the group is more likely to find a new patch of food than is one lone individual, she said. "Flocking can be an alternative way to deal with food shortages."
A universal assumption about bird migration has been that short-distance migration is an evolutionary stepping stone to long-distance migration. The team's work contradicts that idea by showing that short-distance migrants are inherently different from their globe-trotting cousins.
The National Science Foundation and the Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council of Canada funded the work.

2005 Ford Freestar Question: The #4 cylinder is not working-have replaced everything and need answer.
Answer #1mastertech6371 March 03, 2012, 16:55Master
what is the compression?? start with bascis.
Answer #2patrick mannion from Greg Solow's Engine Room, March 03, 2012, 19:43Master
A misfire can be caused by loss of ignition, fuel or engine mechanical issues. Check the basics first make sure the engine has "even compression" (intake /exhaust valves sealing well), compression and cylinder leakage tests will confirm engine mechanical integrity. Also check that the engine produces approx 21 inHG vacuum at engine idle when warm). You could have a vacuum leak (intake manifold gasket or small vacuum hose near that runner in the intake manifold). A misfire in one cylinder can be caused by a restricted or clogged fuel injector not supplying sufficient fuel to that cylinder (low fuel pressure or volume due to a bad fuel pump would affect all cylinders). Loss of ignition to a cylinder will cause a misfire (spark plug, ignition coil. plug wire coil pack, or triggering of the ignition coil issues all can cause loss of ignition or weak ignition to a cylinder). I like to look at freeze frame information, live sensor data, and Mode 6 information on a professional grade scan tool to look at fuel trim values long and short term, engine vacuum and other key sensor data that can be read right of the scan tool without having to do intrusive testing at each sensor.

Short Version: I am an artist, work in post...
Short Version: I am an artist, work in post production for feature films, love drawing and painting and most things creative. Can be very geeky. Elaborate Version: See below. I work a lot but feel incredibly fortunate to do what I do. I love my job and am ridiculously passionate about my career (movie post-production, visual effects stuff). Two things I love are art and movies and I am bit of a tech geek. My job allows to combine all three but this job does make me work some crazy hours from time to time. That being said, I also value having a good time and trying to have a fun life outside of work. I love going to the movies and going out to eat. Museums are great and I'd like to start doing more traveling. As I said earlier, I love art. From the first grade all the way through college, all I wanted to do was draw and paint. I dont do much of it these days but am always trying to get back into it.. Another thing you should now about me is that I am a geek. For example, I liked Star Wars and Star Trek before JJ Abrams got involved. You know, back when liking sci-fi got you hardcore made fun of? I know that sounds incredibly hipster-ish, but honestly I cant think of a more efficient way to explain all that. Living an active lifestyle is important to me. If I wasn't working in post production I'd probably be teaching martial arts. I taught martial arts (Muay Thai specifically) at UCLA and Visual Effects (Matte Painting) at the Gnomon School of Visual Effects for a while. Being able to have a positive influence on people lives was very fulfilling and I hope to do more that in future. Hopefully I didn't accidentally use my powers for evil and ruin several lives. I really don't think I did so lets just go with that. Things I'm hoping to find in a girl: -Ambitious and passionate about their career -Cares about health and fitness but isn't a total downer about it. Must be able to eat lots of pizza and dessert when the time is right. -Ability to make and use obscure 80s and 90s pop culture references are a plus. This includes 8-bit Nintendo games.

Press release from Business Wire
EPA Names KB Home a 2011 WaterSense Partner of the Year

 Industry leader in sustainability recognized for building nation's first WaterSense labeled new homes and helping homeowners save money

Tuesday, October 11, 2011
EPA Names KB Home a 2011 WaterSense Partner of the Year08:00 EDT Tuesday, October 11, 2011 LOS ANGELES (Business Wire) -- KB Home (NYSE:KBH), one of America's premier homebuilders, has been honored by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) as a 2011 WaterSense® Partner of the Year. The Built to Order™ homebuilder was the first to partner with WaterSense in 2009 to include WaterSense labeled fixtures as standard features of its new homes. KB Home led the way once again in 2010 by becoming the first builder to construct homes to EPA's WaterSense New Home Specification. In addition, all KB homes built today include WaterSense labeled faucets, showerheads and toilets. "Water conservation has been an important part of our environmental sustainability efforts for many years," said Dan Bridleman, senior vice president of Sustainability, Technology and Strategic Sourcing, who was presented the award during last week's WaterSmart Innovations Conference held in Las Vegas, Nev. "We are pleased to be recognized for our pioneering efforts with the WaterSense program and look forward to continuing to support water efficiency programs and offer water-efficient products that can help our homeowners save money while also conserving such a precious natural resource." EPA's WaterSense program offers a national label for water-efficient new homes that helps Americans identify homes that save water, energy and money on utility bills. According to EPA estimates, a family of four can save 50,000 gallons of water a year in a new WaterSense labeled home when compared to a typical existing home. That's enough water to do 1,200 loads of laundry, take showers for nearly a decade or fill five residential swimming pools. "WaterSense helps marshal the forces of the consumer marketplace and the innovative capacity of the private sector," said Nancy Stoner, EPA's Acting Assistant Administrator for Water. "Since 2006, WaterSense and our many partners have helped Americans save 125 billion gallons of water and more than $2 billion in water and energy bills." About KB Home KB Home is one of the largest and most recognized homebuilding companies in the United States. Since its founding in 1957, the company has built more than half a million quality homes. KB Home's signature Built to Order™ approach lets each buyer customize their new home from lot location to floor plan and design features. In addition to meeting strict ENERGY STAR® guidelines, all KB homes are highly energy efficient to help lower monthly utility costs for homeowners, which the company demonstrates with its proprietary KB Home Energy Performance Guide™ (EPG). A leader in utilizing state-of-the-art sustainable building practices, KB Home was named the #1 Green Homebuilder in a 2010 study by Calvert Investments and the #1 Homebuilder on FORTUNE magazine's 2011 World's Most Admired Companies list. Los Angeles-based KB Home was the first homebuilder listed on the New York Stock Exchange, and trades under the ticker symbol "KBH."

AUSTIN -- State Sen. Wendy Davis (D-Fort Worth) launched her campaign for governor on a simple premise.
Every Texan has a story about what Texas means for them, Davis told supporters gathered for her official announcement in October 2013. As everyone in this room does, I have a Texas story.
Inside the gymnasium of her old high school in the working class Fort Worth suburb of Haltom City, Davis' own story of working her way from an impoverished single mother to a Harvard-educated attorney and politician took center stage.
By the time I was 19, I was already on my way to a divorce, living in a tiny trailer with my daughter Amber, said Davis. I was barely making ends meet, and sometimes they didn't.
That much is true, and has been retold by Davis countless times on the campaign trail. But arecent article by Dallas Morning News senior political writer Wayne Slaterhas unveiled new details about what happened next.
In particular, it details her marriage to a wealthy, older attorney named Jeff Davis, who helped pay for her to finish her studies at Texas Christian University, and took out loans and cashed in a 401(k) to provide funds to put her through Harvard Law School. The article also notes she divorced him after her loans were paid off, and that he was granted custody of her daughters.
Along with a claim Davis made while testifying in a federal redistricting lawsuit that she was divorced by the age of 19, the details of her second marriage and divorce have been seized upon as evidence the authenticity of her personal story is dubious. When contacted Monday, Republican attorney general and gubernatorial opponent Greg Abbott's campaign released a statement accusing Davis of lying about her personal history.
Sen. Wendy Davis systematically, intentionally and repeatedly deceived Texans for years about her background, yet she expects voters to indulge her fanciful narrative, said Abbott spokesperson Matt Hirsch. Not only does Sen. Davis hide her donors and contributions, but she's attempting to hide her past. It's disappointing that a candidate would so cavalierly deceive voters about the most basic aspects of their life, while providing inaccurate testimony in the process. If voters can't trust what Sen. Davis says, how can they trust her to lead? Texans deserve candidates who are open and honest with the truth.
This obviously raises a lot of questions, said Republican consultant Matt Mackowiak. It's going to put her campaign on defense for the next week at least, and it really sort of undercuts one of her strengths, which is this personal narrative.
In a campaign, the best messenger you have is the candidate, Mackowiak said. If the candidate is seen as not being fully honest, or even being dishonest, it sort of makes it impossible to use the candidate as the messenger.
Davis' campaign responded Monday by releasing new details of her personal biography describing both the financing of her higher education and the raising of children as joint family ventures. Davis states that she also contributed to repaying the loans while working as an attorney, and that she and her ex-husband shared child custody following the divorce. The campaign additionally emphasized both Davis' daughters lived with her in Boston during her first year at Harvard; after which Davis split time between Boston and Fort Worth, and spent half of each month with her children during her final year.
We re not surprised by Greg Abbott s campaign attacks on the personal story of my life as a single mother who worked hard to get ahead, Davis said in a statement Monday. But they won t work, because my story is the story of millions of Texas women who know the strength it takes when you re young, alone and a mother.
Her serious financial difficulties prior to her second marriage and struggle to make a living while going to school and raising a child are not in question, nor were the academic achievements needed to secure a scholarship to TCU and acceptance to Harvard. Democratic consultant Jason Stanford argues the details from the period after that don't detract from her story's resonance.
She's the woman that people can relate to, said Stanford. I'm a child of divorce. I've been divorced. Now I have something in common with Wendy Davis. If you're going to attack someone for not living a perfect life, you're going to find an awful lot of sinners looking for redemption in Texas. God forbid any of us have our exes go on record against any of us. If her daughters are behind her, then really what business is this of ours? Apparently Greg Abbott thinks it's his business to attack a woman for her personal life. I think that is way beyond the line.
It will be up to voters in November whose story wins the day.

California Weighs Vote to Renew Tax Increase
SACRAMENTO—California Gov. Jerry Brown on Monday will launch the opening salvo in his campaign to ask voters to help plug the state's $25.4 billion budget hole by extending temporary increases on income and sales taxes.
In a State of the State address, his first since becoming governor earlier this month, Mr. Brown plans to underscore the seriousness of the fiscal crisis facing the nation's most populous state and press lawmakers for a prompt response to his proposal for a midsummer election asking voters to extend temporary tax hikes, according to people familiar with his plans.
Earlier this month, Mr. Brown proposed an $84.6 billion budget for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2012.
His budget calls for $12.5 billion in cuts, contingent on voter approval of a five-year tax extension that would generate $12 billion during the fiscal year.
Mr. Brown decided against simply asking the legislature for the tax extensions, which would have broken a campaign pledge. His ballot measure would specifically propose a five-year extension of a temporary increase enacted in 2009 on personal income tax, sales tax and vehicle license fees.
In a poll last week from the Public Policy Institute of California, 53% of respondents approved of that plan, while 41% disapproved. If the tax extension fails, California's legislature will have to restart budget talks from scratch.
Whether Mr. Brown succeeds in getting his unusual tax-extension proposal put before voters will be scrutinized across the country, as governors and legislatures in other cash-strapped states face similar budget woes.
California, which has the nation's largest general fund, is one of 35 states projecting budget gaps in the 2012 fiscal year that total at least $82.1 billion, according to the National Conference of State Legislatures, an organization made up of state legislators.
The states have "pretty much put every option on the table, and the decisions are only getting harder," said Todd Haggerty, an analyst at the organization.
A spokesman for Mr. Brown said the governor wasn't available for comment. The people familiar with his plans said Mr. Brown will emphasize the state's great wealth and resources, which the governor believes can help California in the struggle to meet its fiscal challenges.
The governor faces many hurdles in getting the tax extension passed before the fiscal year starts in July. He must persuade two-thirds of state lawmakers to put the tax-extension proposal to voters—a feat that will require a handful of votes from Republican legislators, who generally oppose asking voters for the tax extension. Democrats generally support the proposal.
Mr. Brown has privately conferred with lawmakers on both sides of the aisle. The governor has "done an excellent job in reaching out to the legislature and recognizing that the legislature has to be a partner," said Republican Assemblyman Cameron Smyth of Santa Clarita, who, however, said he opposes the idea of proposing a tax increase to voters.
Still, the charm offensive appears to be working enough for some key Republicans to express willingness to negotiate with Democrats. "At the end of the day, if they show goodwill and give us some tangible measures to reform [government], it's possible that we would have members in our caucus who would be willing to put [the tax extensions] on the ballot," said Sen. Bob Huff, the Republican vice-chair of the Senate budget committee. Mr. Huff, however, added that he wouldn't support the measure.
One sticking point for Republicans is that if a tax extension passes, the legislature can by law pass a budget with a simple majority—meaning it could pass without the need for Republican votes. So Republicans may ask for assurances that any concessions to them won't be revoked after the election.
On the Republican wish list: changing the public-pension system, allowing private firms to provide some state services, requiring a review of the economic impact of any new legislation, and easing certain regulations that they view as costly for business.

Carlos Santana Reunites With Homeless Bandmate
Originally published on Mon December 30, 2013 9:41 am
2013 has ended on a decidedly happy note for one homeless man in Oakland, California. Marcus Malone was a conga player for Carlos Santana in the late '60s. He landed in legal trouble and disappeared from the music scene. Then a TV reporter doing a story on illegal dumping met Malone rummaging through trash. Santana saw the report and earlier this month, the two former band mates were reunited.
MARCUS MALONE: Man.
CARLOS SANTANA: Marcus "The Magnificent" Malone.
MALONE: Oh, my God.
LUDDEN: KRON TV's Stanley Roberts arranged for the two men to meet. He joins us from our studios at NPR West. Welcome.
STANLEY ROBERTS: Hello. How are you?
LUDDEN: I'm good. So, when Marcus Malone told you that he used to play with Carlos Santana, what did you think?
ROBERTS: Yeah. Some things he said resonated with me. When he said that they had practice in his mother's garage on Potrero Hill with Carlos Santana, that was what really sparked my interest.
LUDDEN: So, this - you do your reports, this airs, and then what happens?
ROBERTS: I received a Facebook message from Carlos Santana's manager saying that Carlos had been driving around Oakland attempting to find Marcus.
LUDDEN: Because he had seen your report.
ROBERTS: Because they had seen the report, yes. So, I reached out to his manager and I said, you know, let's try to set up something. They met and then the rest of it was history.
LUDDEN: What do we know about how Marcus Malone went from playing with Carlos Santana to, you know, being on the streets?
ROBERTS: Well, turns out he actually had spent some time. He was incarcerated and it appears to be for about three years. He was known for having two women on both arms back in the '60s. He apparently got into an altercation with one of woman's apparent husband, some kind of a fight ensued. He went through surgery and apparently third surgery, the person passed away. So, he was charged and convicted with manslaughter.
LUDDEN: What happened when he got out of prison?
ROBERTS: You know, once you get out of prison and you come out, your life is completely different. And he was in prison for manslaughter; we can't take that fact away and we don't want to take away from the family that lost someone. So, he just couldn't bring himself back around again.
LUDDEN: What is next for Malone?
ROBERTS: Well, you know, I got a call from Carlos and he says that he doesn't want it to become a media circus, so he wants to try to get him the help he needs. It's going to take baby steps to get him back into where he was at some point they can perform together. You know, he is a part of history, part of the reason why Santana - this is according to Santana - reason why his sound is the way it is.
LUDDEN: Stanley Roberts is a reporter for KRON TV in Oakland. He helped reunite Carlos Santana with his percussionist, Marcus "The Magnificent" Malone. Thank you very much.
ROBERTS: Thank you.
LUDDEN: This is NPR News. Transcript provided by NPR, Copyright NPR.

DD had hardly any words at 14 months--pretty much mama & dada plus some signs (milk, cat, more, eat, maybe a few others.) At her 18 month birthday I counted that she had 15 words (plus a few more signs). I was becoming a little concerned (she has a tongue tie & seemed to really be having trouble forming sounds) so I really started specifically working with her on it, trying to get her to repeat words I said ("Can you say bird? Biiirrrrdd?"). Perhaps it's just coincidence & she was ready for a language explosion anyway, but during that month of more 'focused' practicing she got a ton more words--up to about 60 by her 19 month birthday, including beginning to use some 2 word phrases.
ariana, mama to beautiful redheaded girls (oct 07) and (nov 10)

Vinny Castilla was born on July 4, so he knows a little something about celebrations. Today, Castilla will start at third base at Coors Field, bathing in standing ovations during each at-bat as he waves goodbye to Rockies fans.
Don't be surprised if Castilla doesn't ask for anything this Christmas. Really, as a professional athlete, what else could he want than to go out on his own terms? Castilla knows how lucky he is.
"It's hard to explain how good it feels," Castilla said.
Other original Rockies had love affairs with Colorado fans, but none got this opportunity: a long, wet goodbye kiss in purple pinstripes. If the Rockies were smart, this would be the first in a series of steps in embracing their past (they have one now; after all, the end of their 14th season is near). Retiring numbers should be next, starting with Larry Walker, their only MVP, and followed by the "Big Cat," Andres Galarraga, their first batting champ.
Driving back to his Orlando, Fla., home after working with Washington Nationals minor-leaguers, Dante Bichette delighted in Castilla's exit. It never works like this, he explained. That's just professional sports - most teams are about as sentimental as a jury summons.
"I think it's great for Vinny. He's retiring from where he lives. He's a great asset for that organization," Bichette said.
Bichette was asked if he would be attending. There was no invitation. So much for a surprise reunion at home plate with the Blake Street Bombers.
"That's the way it goes. I don't think as an athlete you should expect anything like that. You give your best to the game, that's all you can do," Bichette said. "The game gave me so much back. I got a lot of love from those fans. Almost every day I get a fan of the Rockies that acknowledges me."
That speaks to the bond this community formed with the original crew of mutts who became the envy of baseball, making the playoffs in their third season. They had long hair, big arms, huge smiles. Bichette joked that he often gets recognized because he played with the best players ever from Mexico (Castilla), Venezuela (Galarraga) and Canada (Walker).
Fact remains, what was wouldn't be as important as what is if the current players were better - and better marketed. If this franchise is truly committed to keeping this group together - that means paying Matt Holliday, Garrett Atkins and Jeff Francis after next season - truly committed to recapturing glory, then let fans know who they are.
Show pride in the kids. Put them in a TV ad or on a radio commercial, for heaven's sake. As it stands, you could line up the Rockies shoulder to shoulder in Union Station and even the bloggers on purplerow.com would be challenged to identify them.
If the next step is really the playoffs, put money in promotion (and payroll, but that's another column). The team's marketing arm should not be Fox Sports Rocky Mountain. The network has done a terrific job trying to maximize its investment, but the team needs to do more.
Throw Jason Jennings, Aaron Cook and Francis in a clever commercial poking fun at the humidor. Put Holliday at a carnival ringing the bell with his Paul Bunyan bat. Show Atkins line-driving apples and oranges into his grocery cart.
Beyond victories, this team needs a presence so its present can be embraced with the unconditional love of its past.
Looking into the future
The Rockies have not decided whether they will bring back starters Byung-Hyun Kim or Josh Fogg. They don't need to make a decision on Kim until the middle of November, per his contract, and they could drag out Fogg's situation until the Dec. 20 nontender date. The team has interest in retaining Jose Mesa, though in a role more specific to the seventh inning.
Manager carousel
Bichette is a good friend of Marlins manager Joe Girardi, and couldn't believe Florida would fire him after only one season. It appears Girardi is done, his differences with owner Jeffrey Loria irreconcilable.
"He won't be out of work for long. He could go to Chicago or take over for (Joe) Torre in New York someday," Bichette said.
Girardi's ejection figures to be the first of a handful of changes. A look into the hazy crystal ball says: Felipe Alou won't be back in San Francisco, replaced by Bob Brenly. Frank Robinson won't be renewed, leaving Lou Piniella, Bob Boone and Girardi as candidates to replace him in Washington.
Piniella will have his pick of jobs this offseason, with Philadelphia the most likely if GM Pat Gillick continues putting his stamp on that franchise.
Roger Clemens, pitching on short rest, will start at Minute Maid Park today. Clemens has enjoyed one heck of a rocket ride, but on behalf of trees and Microsoft word documents everywhere, let this be it. No more maybes, no more comebacks, just one final, classy exit. ... The Red Sox-Yankees cage match could get meaner if Gary Sheffield signs to play right field in Boston. It's a strong possibility.... Best wishes to Buddy Bell, dealing with a medical scare. Think what you want of him as a manager, but you'll never meet a better person.

"Shakespeare and the Arts of Language has its own challenges: how to write about Shakespeare's language in ways that don't seem either pedestrian or pretentious? McDonald's keen ear and shrewd eye for the specificity of wordplay, for the social relations embedded in spoken language, for figure and meter, for the power of prose, and indeed for the limits of language in the physical forms of theater are, however, more than up to the challenge."--Studies in English Literature 1500-1900
"Makes a difficult subject enlivening and thought-provoking. [McDonald] achieves the difficult task of making linguistic dissection seem meaningful to undergraduates...excellent."-Renaissance Quarterly
"In Oxford University Press's excellent series on Shakespeare Topics, Michael Taylor in Shakespeare Criticism in the Twentieth Century and Russ McDonald in Shakespeare and the Arts of Language offer admirable scholarship presented with welcome readability. This series ought to be in every library."--Bibliothèque d'Humanisme et Renaissance
"The book is not only a solid and thorough treatment of its subject; it is often imaginative and original. The style is perspicuous, and the arrangement and treatment of Shakespeare's mastery of language are sensible and effective.... If someone wishes to require supplemental reading of a Shakespeare class, this would be time and twenty dollars well spent."--Ben Jonson Journal
"This book is a helpful guide to Shakespeare's language, pitched at students and the general public rather than scholars (but offering wonderful footnotes for the scholar-teachers using it with their classes).... A thorough, insightful, informed book."--Sixteenth Century Journal

US teen designs compact nuclear reactor
LONG BEACH, California– Eighteen-year-old Taylor Wilson has designed a compact nuclear reactor that could one day burn waste from old atomic weapons to power anything from homes and factories to space colonies.
The American teen, who gained fame four years ago after designing a fusion reactor he planned to build in the garage of his family's home, shared his latest endeavor at a TED Conference in southern California on Thursday.
"It's about bringing something old, fission, into the 21st Century," Wilson said. "I think this has huge potential to change the world."
He has designed a small reactor capable of generating 50-100 megawatts of electricity, enough to power as many as 100,000 homes.
The reactor can be made assembly-line style and powered by molten radioactive material from nuclear weapons, Wilson said. The relatively small, modular reactor can be shipped sealed with enough fuel to last for 30 years.
"You can plop them down anywhere in the world and they work, buried under the ground for security reasons," he said, while detailing his design at TED.
"In the Cold War we built up this huge arsenal of nuclear weapons and we don't need them anymore," Wilson said. "It would be great if we could eat them up, and this reactor loves this stuff."
His reactors are designed to spin turbines using gas instead of steam, meaning they operate at temperatures lower than those of typical nuclear reactors and don't spew anything if there is a breach.
The fuel is in the form of molten salt, and the reactors don't need to be pressurized, according to the teenager.
"In the event of an accident, you can just drain the core into a tank under the reactor with neutron absorbers and the reaction stops," Wilson said.
"There is no inclination for the fission products to leave this reactor," he said. "In an accident, the reactor may be toast, which is sorry for the power company, but there is no problem."
Wilson, who graduated grade school in May, said he is putting off university to focus on a company he created to make Modular Fission Reactors.
He sees his competition as nations, particularly China, and the roadblocks ahead as political instead of technical.
Wilson planned to have a prototype ready in two years and a product to market in five years.
"Not only does it combat climate change, it can bring power to the developing world," Wilson said with teenage optimism.
"Imagine having a compact reactor in a rocket designed by those planning to habitat other planets. Not only would you have power for propulsion, but power once you get there."

New URL shortener should improve branding and safety
A recent article in PCWorld.com highlights the possible dangers of increasingly popular url shorteners. Their anonymity, said PCWorld, makes them a good tool for spammers and a potentially poor tool for companies looking to increase branding. Yet their popularity has skyrocketed in recent months. Programs like Tweetdeck, said PCWorld, give you options for identifying the entire url, but that won't help with e-mail or with other social network sites.
If you work with web publishers or bloggers, you should look closely at the new Bit.Ly Pro option. Currently available only to select users and in beta form, Bit.Ly Pro will help identify the shortened url to a brand (nyti.ms, for example) to maintain the trust of the link.
Have you experienced any negative impact from using url shorteners? Any advice for best use of these tools?
Thanks, GRH

Be it through a splash of hue on a blank canvas, or a dramatic dialogue between two theatre virtuosos, the city has always had multifarious options to cater to a crowd that is in need of entertainment. No matter how busy it claims to be, amidst all the chaos and time-crunch, Mumbai spares quality time for lending its support to the cultural scene. Not only are there a host of platforms to help young theatre aficionados, artists and painters, but also are they finding recognition for their body of work. What better...these multiple art platforms have become both socially alluring and financially assuring. Mumbai has established a brilliant art and theatre scene, with art galleries and theatres at every corner of the city. Again, by strengthening international connections, we're reaching out to a wider audience. Another dimension is the changing scene of stand-up comedy; this form has comfortably slipped into the entertainment zone, with people taking a liking to it. Here's looking at some bright stars who are part of the art revolution in the city.
Gursimran Khamba and Tanmay Bhat
Age : 27/26 yrs.
Over the last three years, stand-up has converted from being just an art form to a booming industry. And we can proudly say that Mumbai is a forerunner in this sphere. There are stand-up clubs, open mic contests, and an active participation of the youth in this scene, not to mention the throngs of people who're accepting this as a form of entertainment. With social media going gung-ho about it as well, this industry is now considered cool and edgy. Forget the Jerry Seinfelds and the Russell Peters of the world...time to say hello to the guys who've cracked Mumbai up, literally!
Two funny guys
Starting in 2009, Khamba and Bhat, who got to know each other because of their stand-up connection, decided to collaborate and start a podcast under the name of All India Bhakchod (AIB). Before they knew it, they were working on their first show. At the onset, the duo were just following their passion for stand-up. But in no time, it turned into serious business, and is now a full-fledged industry as well. AIB also put together a satirical video on rape, titled It's Your Fault, featuring Juhi Pandey and Kalki Koechlin, which went viral.
Ira Dubey
Age : 29 yrs.
A new wave is taking theatre by storm: the young wave. Gone are the times when theatre veterans conducted workshops to rope in the young generation to rekindle the love for theatre among them. Today, the youth are very eager to be a part of this industry and are doing their best to support it. New theatre groups are surfacing. Look around and you'll find experimentals, musicals, improvisations, main-stream and socially relevant theatre.
like mother, like daughter
So what if Ira Dubey happens to be the daughter of a well-known theatre personality? This young girl has earned her well-deserved fame and recognition through merit. Known by directors to be a hard-worker, extremely disciplined and focussed, Ira has worked with her mother in socially-relevant plays like Sammy, Wedding Album, 30 Days in September, Love On The Brink, Adhe Adhure and others. In her mother's solo production, 9 Parts Of Desire, Ira played nine different characters, a feat that very few theatre actors have achieved so far.
Sahej Rahal
Age : 25 yrs.
If the perception you have of art is just the good ol' paintings and installations, here's some food for thought. The city is witnessing a paradigm shift in this industry. While some artists prefer upcycling discarded material to make something unique, others fuse elements like video and photography to create a dramatic narrative. From merging music, dance, drama and theatre, with art, this field is in another league now.
The dramatic artist
We have no idea what to call him. Contemporary artist to some or just a well-read guy with some great concepts to others. No matter what, he's in a constant quest to create something extraordinary and new. Sahej Rahal, a Mumbai-based artist, uses tools, weapons, ancient objects, videos, photographs, and anything under the sun, to weave a narrative around it. "Every object has a little history to it," explains the winner of Solo Show Debut at the first edition of Forbes Art Awards this year.
Be fearless
"Stand-up comedy hardly existed three years ago. The key to being a great stand-up comedian is to be persistent so as to establish yourself as one. My advice to the young generation is to be fearless and they should speak their mind. Every issue should be questioned... religion, Bollywood and politics. Social media is a platform to reach out to the audience."
Karan Talwar, comedian

La Salle skips V-League to focus on academics; Gohing clarifies nat'l team pool inclusion
More News from Celest R. Flores
MANILA, Philippines — After its successful conquest of a third championship in the UAAP women's volleyball earlier this month, La Salle thought it was best to spend the summer off the court.
Graduating Lady Spiker Melissa Gohing explained their reason for skipping the first conference of the 10th Shakey's V-League, saying "the girls want to rest and focus on academics, since we're student athletes."
"That's the coaches' promise to us," said the Gohing Saturday night at a press conference for La Salle's first ever general championship in the UAAP.
"They told us, 'I know it's hard (with twice a day training), but you can focus now on the season and try to balance everything as much as possible, then after that you can focus on academics.'"
La Salle clinched the UAAP season 75 title with a sweep of Ateneo in the finals, overcoming a two-set deficit in the first game then dominating the Lady Eagles in the second game.
But for the soft-spoken libero this year was extra special.
"This year was really special because the team was really intact. I've come to realize what we have compared to other teams," Gohing said.
Gohing won five championships in her five year stay in La Salle, but you won't be seeing her back on the court any time soon.
"I wanna prove myself in other fields naman," Gohing said of her plans after the UAAP. "I wanna play in commercial leagues, but not now."
Meanwhile, Gohing clarified her supposed inclusion in the Philippine women's volleyball team. Her name turned up in the list of the 33-player training pool.
"It's not true. I didn't go to any tryout or conference," Gohing said.

To embed, copy and paste the code into your website or blog:
So, you have thoughtfully and thoroughly prepared the Form 1023 Application for Recognition of Exemption Under Section 501(c)(3) ("Form 1023" or "application") on behalf of a charity, and filed it with the IRS along with a completed checklist and the correct user fee. The charity is now anxious to fundraise and accept donations, commence its charitable programs, or start making grants. Now what?
Once upon a time you could reasonably approximate the processing time for a Form 1023, based on various facts and characteristics. A non-operating private foundation that only makes grants to domestic public charities? One could anticipate receiving a favorable determination letter in three to six months. A public charity with highly compensated employees, joint venture activity, affiliated entities, and/or and foreign activities? One could similarly predict a longer processing time and greater likelihood that the IRS would respond with questions and a request for further information, regardless of how carefully the Form 1023 was prepared.
Currently, IRS processing time for a Form 1023 is both a guessing and waiting game. The IRS standard "receipt acknowledged" letter states that if the Form 1023 "can be processed based on information submitted" (translation – minor or no questions) ("first group"), a determination letter should be received within 90 days from the date of the letter. It then adds that if a Form 1023 requires "additional information" to be processed (translation – questions regarding activities or operations) ("second group"), then correspondence should be received from an IRS specialist approximately 180 days from the date of the letter. After 180 days, inquiries about status can be made through IRS Customer Account Services. Yet, a quick click on the IRS website Where's My Exemption Application? indicates that currently the average date of a pending Form 1023 application is June 2013, nine months and still "pending". In addition, recent experience and reports from other practitioners indicate processing time ranging from 90 days to 18 months, with even some "first group" applications taking over one year.
The slowdown is likely due to a number of different factors, including lack of personnel (a longtime problem), a backlog of applications due to the 2013 furlough, the influx of new Forms 1023 filed by organizations whose exemptions were automatically revoked for failure to file an informational return for three years, and possibly catch-up processing for organizations that were delayed due to the IRS "Be on the Lookout" (BOLO) list, such as certain "Tea Party" related organizations and others.
Provided below is a list of some common questions from charities with pending applications, and some technical and practical answers.
Can we solicit contributions and accept donations?
Can we commence our charitable activities?
Do we need to file an annual return?

School board OK's $8.4M debt
To help pay costs for construction in DeSoto
DeSoto County school board members on Monday approved issuing $8.4 million in additional debt to pay remaining costs on two building projects plus site preparations for three proposed new schools.
The funds would be the final part of $33 million in three-mill notes authorized last year. The initial $24.5 million in notes was issued last year.
School officials have authority to use up to three mills of the property tax rate to pay for construction debt without seeking voter approval.
The three mills are already a part of the schools' tax rate and would not require any further tax increase.
Ken Reid, assistant superintendent for business services, said the $8.4 million is needed to:
Pay the final costs on the new Lake Cormorant Elementary School, which opened this fall.
Complete funding for the $3.06 million renovation of the old Southaven high school to house Southaven Middle School starting next fall.
Pay for design work and site preparation for three additional new schools that officials say are needed -- Center Hill and Lewisburg middle schools and Lake Cormorant High School.
Hopefully to pay for some of the athletic facilities the new high school will need.
Currently, the school district has no funding available to build the three schools.
"This (the $8.4 million) pretty much taps out our three-mill note money so we will still be looking for other forms of funding (to build the new schools)," Reid said.
Education Supt. Milton Kuykendall recommended that the new debt be issued.
Lake Cormorant Elementary and the Southaven renovation are the final parts of a three-year construction program that has provided 10 new schools and renovation and expansion of 23 older schools.
Excluding the new debt, the total cost to this point has been almost $170 million.
The overall property tax rate for schools was increased 3.64 mills this year but school officials and members of the Board of Supervisors disagree over whether the increase was necessary.
Supervisors said the increase was required to fund the budget approved by school officials. School officials said they believe the increase in assessed value of property in the county was enough to fund the schools' budget without a millage increase.

As a class, vets have limited protections in hiring
Columbus, Ohio – Ask Mark Conwell if military veterans should be a protected class as it relates to workplace discrimination laws and you get an answer that is part from the heart and part practical.
"That is a hard question to ask. I am biased because I am a veteran, so I would say yes. But on the other hand … you risk opening Pandora's box," said the U.S. Army veteran who is a human resources supervisor for the temporary staffing arm of Columbus-based ODW Logistics Inc.
Protected class status is based on factors that can't be singled out for discrimination and harassment such as religion, age and sex. This status is given to Vietnam-era vets. The notion – patriotic or financial – of hiring veterans returning from service is gaining steam. JPMorgan Chase & Co., for example, has launched an effort to hire 100,000 vets by 2020.
In March of last year, the U.S. Chamber of Commerce began its Hiring Our Heroes program, a nationwide effort to help veterans and military spouses find meaningful employment. But there can be misconceptions about a vet's mental state and the inability of some of them to accurately relay how their military experience will translate into the workplace.
"I do believe veterans are a little bit discriminated against," said Daniel Hutchinson, director of Ohio Combat Veterans, a nonprofit that aids veterans' transition from military to civilian life by helping them get their benefits, find jobs and providing support services. "Every employer thinks returning vets have (post-traumatic stress disorder.) When they look on the application and see the person is an active or on reserve, they get pushed to the back of the pile."
