Yes, as you read last week, we do have snakes here in Yucca Valley, Joshua Tree and Twentynine Palms. Here are a couple more common snakes we have in our area.
The sidewinder is a venomous snake. It measures between 18-30 inches long. It has a gray, brown, or yellow body. It likes the sandy terrain of the desert, and it kind of buries itself in the sand in a coil or hides at the base of creosote bushes or other bushes. It eats lizards, rodents, and birds. To move along, this snake throws its head in front of its body, uses it as an anchor, and pulls the rest of itself along in a side winding pattern.
The gopher snake is found throughout the Mojave Desert. It looks similar in it's pattern to a rattlesnake and is often mistaken as a rattler and unfortunately killed. This is a good snake though. It is usually yellowish or cream colored and has brown or reddish blotches along its back. It can reach up to 6 feet in length. It lives in the rocks, in the desert washes and is a skilled climber. It eats rodents, rabbits, birds, eggs, and lizards. It kills its prey by constriction. It is usually pretty gentle and normally easy to handle.
Several years ago, when I was still in the California Highway Patrol, I was just about to put the cuffs on this guy, when I looked down and saw a snake slithering by about a foot away us. I calmly told the guy to hold very still, as a snake was crawling by us. I also mentioned last week, I do not like snakes very much, and was hoping it didn't jump at us and strike one of us. Luckily, the snake went by and left us alone. Everyone always asks me, so, was it poisonous? That I cannot tell you, as I was kind of busy watching the snake and trying to handcuff a guy to take forthwith.
Snakes are fascinating. Be careful as you reach for things near bushes or in rocks, as this is the time they venture out. I do not recommend seeking them out or touching or picking them up. You just never know.Tweet

America's Next Top Model
ANTM's Kasia Upset Tyra Didn't Keep Her Word About Alexandria
One of our favorite "fiercely real" America's Next Top Model contestants of all time, Kasia Pilewicz, recently sat down with RealityBlitz to talk about her last ANTM photo shoot (the one that got her sent home) as well as Tyra's inability to keep her word about Alexandria Everett.
When asked by the website if the production side of things might have gotten in the way of finding the best model on the show, Kasia replied, "It's quite possible. They have to combine both aspects of it: the TV side and the modeling side. [...] They have to make a good TV show I guess."
As we know, Alexandria finally got the axe but, as we noted after Kasia got sent home, her bad attitude should have gotten her booted way before Kasia. And, of course, Kasia didn't think she deserved to go home. "I really was expecting a second chance, said Kasia. "[Alexandria]... said on this show that she got a second chance. I was like, um, 'No, that's, like, your seventh chance'. I was just really disappointed that the judges didn't give me even one second shot. I had never even been in the bottom two."
Former ANTM winner Whitney Thompson also weighed in on Kasia's elimination and noted that the people behind the show will exploit any sort of emotional vulnerability. At the same time, Whitney thinks Kasia's wavering self-esteem was at fault more than anything. Industry insiders agreed, pointing out that the show represented a real-life situation for a plus-size model rather than a pre-planned conspiracy by the ANTM producers. At this point, we think it's a little bit of both.
Kasia also told RealityBlitz that Tyra's previous promise to send Alexandria home if her attitude got in the way again didn't seem to have any weight on the final decision. "I was really hoping Tyra would keep her word and that disappointed me a little bit. It's like, why say it? It airs on national television and then you're not going to keep your word? People notice that. People remember that. So, who's looking bad there? [...] Maybe ultimately she doesn't have that control. I think she does, but I don't know. But something like that, I don't think it's fair. It doesn't look good."
In Wetpaint's exclusive interview with Kasia, she backed up this point: "I thought Tyra would keep her word — she had said before, 'The next time it happens that you [try to] direct a shoot, you're going home.' And she didn't keep that, unfortunately for me."

That's a nice lean on that CBX. With that big inline six, it almost looks like you'll scrape engine before you would scrape a foot peg.
Here is a scan of an older photo of my '82 Honda C70 that I shot and developed myself for a photography class I was taking at the time. I remember this ride vividly. It was a warmer winter day in central Kansas and the snow had just melted away. I was really looking for an excuse to ride and having to take photos for class fit the bill perfectly. The gravel/sand roads were in pretty good shape but then I came to about a mile of true dirt, which due to the snow melt was now about the consistency and color of chocolate pudding. I slipped and slid about halfway down the road where I came upon a part that I felt was impassable, but there was a raised bank on one side with grass on it. I thought it would be drier and the grass would give better traction than the mud below. I rode on the small bank for about 20 feet until a section gave way and I slipped down the other side. The Honda instantly sank almost axle deep in a muddy field. I was able to drag the bike out of the field and back over the bank, but the muck sucked my shoes right off my feet in the process. This picture was taken on the shoeless trip back into town. If you look really close, you can see the muddy grass hanging off the rear fender. That enormous trunk was great for camping and grocery getting but made the bike rather awkward to ride. A milk crate is far superior.

SILVERTHORNE LUMBER CO. v. UNITED STATES No. 358.
SILVERTHORNE LUMBER COMPANY, INC., ET AL. v. UNITED STATES.
Supreme Court of United States.
Decided January 26, 1920.
Mr. William D. Guthrie, with whom Mr. Henry W. Killeen, Mr. James O. Moore, Mr. Frederic D. McKenney and Mr. Myer Cohen were on the briefs, for plaintiffs in error.
Mr. Assistant Attorney General Stewart, with whom Mr. W.C. Herron was on the brief, for the United States:
This is a writ of error brought to reverse a judgment of the District Court fining the Silverthorne Lumber Company two hundred and fifty dollars for contempt of court and ordering Frederick W. Silverthorne to be imprisoned until he should purge himself of a similar contempt. The contempt in question was a refusal to obey subpoenas and an order of Court to produce books and documents of the company before the grand jury to be used in regard to alleged violation of the statutes of the United States by the said Silverthorne and his father. One ground of the refusal was that the order of the Court infringed the rights of the parties under the Fourth Amendment of the Constitution of the United States.
The facts are smple. An indictment upon a single specific charge having been brought against the two Silverthornes mentioned, they both were arrested at their homes early in the morning of February 25, 1919, and were detained in custody a number of hours. While they were thus detained representatives of the Department of Justice and the United States marshal without a shadow of authority went to the office of their company and made a clean sweep of all the books, papers and documents found there. All the employees were taken or directed to go to the office of the District Attorney of the United States to which also the books, &c., were taken at once. An application was made as soon as might be to the District
The proposition could not be presented more nakedly. It is that although of course its seizure was an outrage which the Government now regrets, it may study the papers before it returns them, copy them, and then may use the knowledge that it has gained to call upon the owners in a more regular form to produce them; that the protection of the Constitution covers the physical possession but not any advantages that the Government can gain over the object of its pursuit by doing the forbidden act. Weeks v. United States, 232 U.S. 383, to be sure, had established that laying the papers directly before the grand jury was
Judgment reversed.

Your correspondent asks why people on the Continent drive on the wrong side of the road (Letters, 4 November). There are two associated reasons: The French Revolution and Napoleon.
Before the Revolution, people in carriages or on horseback rode on the left side of the road for the reason given - deployment of weapons. For their own safety, in that they could see oncoming traffic, the peasants walked on the right. After the revolution, the practice of keeping to the right-hand side of the road was universally adopted. It was not a good idea to mark yourself as an aristocrat. It should be borne in mind, of course, that most roads of the time were little more than narrow cart tracks, and the side you chose to be on was hardly that important.
Napoleon built the first Europe-wide system of roads since the Romans, stretching from Italy, through France and ...

Navy enters twilight era of its once famous frigates
Frigates are also among the most maneuverable ships in the Navy. They are designed to be self-sufficient. The have two bow thrusters that can be extended below the waterline that assist moving the bow of the ship in any direction. This allows these ships the capability to pull in and out of port unassisted.
Lt. Greg Rodriguez, who is currently deployed aboard the dock landing ship Comstock. He served as a senior chief petty electronics technician on the frigate Rentz, and was the electronics readiness officer on the frigate Jarrett, which was recently decommissioned.
(Reporter's note: Lt. Rodriguez's name was misspelled in an earlier version of this story.)
I was on the USS Barbey, and life was nothing to write home about. The ship was fairly small, rode rough, with crowed berthing spaces, and often lacked water for bathing. I worked in the Combat Information Center (CIC) which some called the brains of the ship. Not really sure about that but it often seemed like the center of chaos.
Barbey was a multi-warfare platform, but primarily designed for Anti-Submarine Warfare (ASW) and Carrier escort/plane guard duty. Conducting ASW, we used sonar and passive plotting to locate and track subsurface contacts. It was a very manpower intensive activity. In addition to radar, we used Target Motion Analysis (TMA), also manpower intensive, to track surface contacts. I often thought of TMA as standing for "Too Many Assumptions." Barbey also embarked a helo detachment which contributed to both combat areas.
Our class of frigates suffered from being a single-screw (propeller) vessel which, as you might imagine, didn't provide for backup if something went wrong. And it did. At one point, an important component of the drive shaft burned up and the "snipes" (engineers) were forced to hand lubricate (oil squirt can) the shaft, and limited to about 5 knots in an 18-foot sea pretty much from the west coast of Australia to Diego Garcia in the Indian Ocean.
Bob Berhalter, Santee, who served on the Barbey, a Knox-class frigate
Haze Gray and Underway was the name of the game for the frigates. We would average at least 280 days a year at sea. We were always going somewhere. Leave San Diego on Monday and be in Hawaii on Thursday. The crew was small most of the time — less than 200. We were a training platform for young officers and sailors. As the Chief of R Division at one time, half of my division was under 20 years of age. I trained 3 DCA's fresh out of school. One went on to a Command at Sea of his own. It was my last ship before I retired. The Tisdale was decommissioned and sold to the Turkish Navy in 1996. We worked hard, stood a lot of watches and trained. I have kept in contact with lot of the men I served with in the engineering department.
Mike Benbrook of El Cajon, who served on the frigates Hepburn and the Tisdale
I had the honor of serving on the USS Patrick Osborne Fordfrom 2001 to 2005. At one time the frigate was one of the most advanced warships in the world but during my time there it was aperiod of transition from guided missile frigate, tasked with hunting subs and being the spearhead of Carrier Strike Groups, to glorified Coast Guard Cutter, chasing drug boats in Latin America. The crew was the tightest team of sailors I have ever served with during my 15 years on active duty. The frigate was the last warship to be manned by all men, although we were one of the first frigates to introduce female officers, eventually I had a full chain of command consisting of female officers. During RIMPAC wargames in Hawaii we were often ridiculed for our single launch missile system, dubbed single arm bandit, because for every 5 missiles the other ships would launch we would get just one off. Our main gun was only 3" versus 5" of the rest.

Can-Am returns for GNCC
Title sponsor renews 2008; series kicks off March 1 in Florida
Story by ATV.com Staff, Feb. 15, 2008
Bombardier Recreational Products (BRP) Can-Am will return as title sponsor for the 2008 Grand National Cross Country (GNCC) Series. Can-Am made its debut as GNCC title sponsor in 2007.
Can-Am really helped take the GNCC Series up a notch last year, says GNCC Trail Boss Jeff Russell. They supported us on the track and off, providing great machines and equipment for our staff and building a variety of fun promotions for our fans, like demo rides. They also help fund our GNCC TV program on Versus. Were really thankful for everything they have done to aid in the Series growth.
Can-Am was eager to rejoin the GNCC Series.
GNCC racing brings not only racers together in the spirit of competition, but friends and families together as well, says Bernard Guy, ATV marketing director at BRP. We are in the business of fun, and see the GNCC Series as a way to give back to those who embrace the lifestyle of off-road recreation.
Can-Am will outfit the entire GNCC track crew with Outlander ATVs to assist in course design, maintenance and patrol. Free riding demos will be hosted by Can-Am at several events throughout the season.
Our customers, just like GNCC faithful, are enthusiasts and we enjoy the opportunity to support this gathering, says Guy.
The 2008 Can-Am Grand National Cross Country Series kicks off with the Triton in Melbourne, Fla. on March 1 to 4.
Produced by Racer Productions, the 13-round Can-Am GNCC Series has been run since 1973. Races last nearly three hours and field as many as 1,800 riders through tracks ranging from eight to 12 miles in length.
GNCC Racing will air weekly television shows on the Versus network starting Aug. 2.

Study for Homage to the Square "High Tenor"
Josef Albers's Homage to the Square series is a study of the illusionistic effects of color. Starting with the rigorous geometry of nested squares, Albers created these works by applying paint directly from the tube and spreading it onto the Masonite board with a palette knife. The juxtaposed slabs of color play off one another, as some squares seem to recede into space while others float into the foreground. Albers pursued this study of color and perception from 1950 until his death, producing nearly a thousand canvases in the series.

Seeing men wearing bikinis was always something I didn't understand when I went on vacation. Going to South America in the summer to enjoy the beach was something I always loved doing, but seeing those guys walking around in some of the skimpiest bikinis imaginable was just plain awkward to me. I couldn't comprehend why a guy would want to wear something that showed off that much of his body until I decided to get my own bikini for my next trip to the beach. Now I can fully understand why someone would love to wear an item like this out on the beach.
The men wearing bikinis on the beach have found that these designs offer you much more freedom when you are walking around, and you don't have to worry about them falling off when you get in or out of the water. I found that to be highly useful in my own pool as well and have now replaced all of my older swimwear with these bikinis. If you are planning on trying something like this out, though, make sure that you take care of any body hair you might have beforehand.
I have worn bikinis like all those other men wearing bikinis out in public while I was on vacation and no one thought it strange at all. However, as soon as I get back home and tried wearing one of my bikinis out on the beach, people flipped out about it. I was told that it was inappropriate to wear these items and that I would get in trouble for doing so. It just goes to show that there are some people in the world that have no idea what life is all about. They just want to keep people from living their lives in a way that they are happy with so that they can pretend to be morally above everyone else.
Men's Speedos are very sexy but sometimes you what something much more sexy with much less coverage. Sometimes it is a bikini, thong, G-strings, micro swimsuit, pouch swimsuit, penis display suit or sheer swimsuit. When extreme is the word it is time to visit www.koalaswim.com
Be ready to get excited, stimulated and be blown away!

Radar also has access to independent experts within the small cap sector such as fund managers and analysts, as well as the management and boards of the companies we are researching and reporting on.
Under the Radar Report provides ideas on investing in the specific area of "small caps", or small listed companies on the ASX. We are independent, which means we are not affiliated with any stockbrokers or investment advisers, whose advice can be self-serving because it is based on corporate fees and commissions.
Radar's "small cap" market refers to companies listed on the Australian Stock Exchange (ASX) with market capitalisations between $20 million and $300 million.
We cover all industry sectors. The 1500 or so companies we investigate includes everything from gold miners to information technology companies to biotechnology. Because of their small size, these companies are rarely covered anywhere else.

Since starting his investment life with Fidelity in London, he has returned an average of 20 per cent a year over 20 years.
This is no accident and much of the return is due to picking winners in the small cap space. These company's offer more chance to make big returns than any other asset class.
Some recent wins in the Australian market include:

Amber Montana, originally from Tampa, Florida, moved to California when she was 8-years-old to pursue acting. Prior to "Haunted Hathaways," Amber portrayed a kidnapped girl in a film based on a true story called "She Could Be You." From that first taste of acting, Amber knew that she wanted to pursue it as a career. Amber grew up in an animal loving home with three dogs and is pursuing charity work for animal shelters.

Patent Demons
Visto Corp. of Redwood Shores, Calif., said Monday that it had won an infringement case against Seven Networks, also of California, and is now targeting RIM for infringing four patents, including three involved in the Seven action.
CBC News: RIM rejects patent-infringement allegations
I worked for Seven Networks on that lawsuit and the outcome makes me sad, angry and nauseous at the same time. Not that I was a deciding factor (highly unlikely) and I won't divulge any details about the suit (First rule of law club: don't talk about law club).
But I'm pretty sure I can say this: I was
ritually abused deposed for 7 1/2 hours in the Devil's Lair by Satan himself. And two of his minions (some people call them "attorneys"). And a stenographer. And a videographer. But they weren't full time Satanists, they were just day laborers in the Devil's Army. The Devil's Lair is situated, surprisingly, in a lovely office park in Palo Alto. Being Satan pays well.
Yeah, I'm making with the ha ha, but really I believe these guys are tools of evil. Or just tools. Whatever.

- Category: New Jersey Devils Top Prospects
Stefan Matteau, LW
Shoots: L
Height: 6-3
Weight: 215
Born: 1994-02-23
Hometown: Chicago, IL, USA
Drafted: 2012 New Jersey Devils, 29th overall
October 2014 - Stefan Matteau was a long shot to make the Devils final 23 man roster heading into the 2014-15 season. While his size and physicality seem NHL ready, he can use some more time in Albany developing his two way game and offensive touch. Michael Riggi
July 2014- The most important part of Stefan Matteau's 2013-2014 season for the Albany Devils was staying out of trouble. With character questions being asked after his immature behavior in the past, Matteau turned in a solid season for the club with 26 points in 67 games played. While displaying a more mature attitude off the ice, he continued his rugged physical play on the ice tacking on 66 penalty minutes. Still only 20-years-old he still has plenty of time to develop his offensive abilities while filling out his already impressive physical frame. With the New Jersey Devils possibly letting Ryan Carter and Steve Bernier go via free agency, they could be searching for bottom six grit and tenacity with Stefan Matteau fitting the need perfectly. Michael Riggi
April 2013 - Not the greatest news coming out of the Stefan Matteau camp after the 2012 first round selection was released by his QMJHL team, Blainville-Boisbriand Armada, after reacting to a third period benching by leaving the team. Character flags are raised immediately with Matteau especially since the assistant coach of the team was his father, former NHLer Sephane Matteau. Matteau's "unacceptable behaviour" will be closely monitored by the Devils' organization but this is certainly not promising news for a prospect who has been already labelled with question marks before this incident. Brendan Ross
December 2012 - Matteau was a late (and somewhat surprising) cut from the USA WJC team. It's quite possible that his 14 penalty minutes in the final tune-up game, a loss to Finland, may have sealed his fate. USA coach Phil Housley has been stressing the importance of playing with discipline. Rich Dillon
December 2012 - Stefan Matteau was one of the 27 American players named to the USA Preliminary roster for the upcoming 2013 World Junior Championships. In his first QMJHL season, Matteau is chugging along at just under a point-per-game pace (26GP-14G-9A-23P) for Blainville-Boisbriand and could offer USA some physicality and net-front presence. Brendan Ross
October 2012 – Matteau despite scoring eight points in his first 13 QMJHL games has been suspended one-game by his coaching staff (his father serves as Assistant Coach) after several undisciplined plays that resulted in two league suspensions. Matteau continues to show immaturity on the ice as he attempts to balance his rough-and-tumble style with legal physical play. His latest suspension came from a checking from behind major penalty. Brendan Ross
June 2012 – Stefan Matteau, the son of former New York Ranger Stephane Matteau, was selected 29th overall by the New Jersey Devils after the team decided to make their selection rather than forfeited their 1st round pick. Brendan Ross
May 2012 – Matteau is a big burly hard hitting winger with the feistiness and grit teams covet in power forwards. His style of play is somewhat reminiscent of Milan Lucic in the way that he intimidates the opposition but teams will be hoping that he develops his offensive game more, Matteau owns a good net presence game and a good shot that makes him dangerous inside of the scoring area. Brendan Ross
Matteau's modest offensive skills combined with his ability to agitate the opposition could become a valuable commodity in leagues that reward penalty minutes.

Impact of the Next Capital Cycle On Global Chemical Markets
Can the new world order in energy and chemicals be sustained?
Petrochemical Technology Renaissance Seminar
Dates and Times:
Thursday, March 27, 4:00 pm – 6:00 pm Networking Reception - 6:30 pm - 7:30 pm
Friday, March 28, 8:00 am – 2:00 pm
Technology innovation has always been the solution to the petrochemical industry's ever changing needs. However, in a mature industry such as petrochemicals, true innovation is harder and harder to come by.
With today's feedstock slate consisting of a broad palette of materials including shale gas, NGL's, petroleum, renewables and coal, petrochemical process technology is primed for a "renaissance". Come join IHS experts and Technology Developers as we analyze and assess the latest in petrochemical technology innovation.
The IHS Chemical Technology Seminar will provide discussions and competitive analysis on the direction of fundamental research, and evolutionary and revolutionary technology developments.
Fee: US $850
Includes: Printed material, coffee break and luncheon.
Agenda:As of March 17, 2014
|4:00 pm - 4:15 pm
Opening Remarks
Moderator: Jeffrey Plotkin, Ph.D., Vice President, Chemical Training & Education, IHS Chemical
|4:15 pm - 4:45 pm
Direct Conversion of Methane to Ethylene
By using natural gas directly as a raw material for chemicals and fuels, Siluria's OCM-based processes introduce a new feedstock flexibility option for global producers in the up-, mid- and down-stream sectors as well as the olefin arena. This presentation focuses on the direct production of ethylene from natural gas as a competitive alternative to traditional NGL and naphtha cracking.
Guido Radaelli, Vice President - Engineering, Siluria Technologies Inc.
Guido Radaelli, VP - Engineering, Siluria Technologies, Inc
|4:45 pm - 5:15 pm
Synthesis Gas / Methanol to Olefins
Synthesis gas production capacity from coal gasification and natural gas reforming has risen sharply in recent years. While China has started several large coal/methanol to olefins projects, US is rapidly building up its methanol and olefins capacities based on natural gas. In the next ten years, the competition of these two feedstocks will reshape the global olefins market, and the comparative syngas production economics holds the key to determine the outcome of this competition. This study examines the recent advances in gasification and MTO/MTP (Methanol to Olefin / Propylene) technologies and presents comparative economics of syngas and olefins production from China coal vs. US shale.
R.J. Chang, Global Managing Director, Process Economics Program (PEP), IHS Chemical
|5:15 pm - 5:45 pm
Transforming Low Value Carbon to Chemicals
Through its proprietary Ex-Situ Bioconversion (ESBC) process, Ciris Energy is successfully transforming low value carbon, including coal, into high value chemicals. Ciris' CEO, Greg Jenkins, will review the company's rapid recent technological advances in ESBC and will discuss how ESBC's low cost feedstock advantage positions it as a game changing technology.
Greg Jenkins, CEO, Ciris Energy, Inc.
|5:45 pm - 6:15 pm
C5 Olefin Conversion
Built on the well-proven Lummus Olefins Conversion Technology involving the metathesis of ethylene and butenes to make propylene, CB&I now introduces the metathesis of C5 olefins with ethylene. This new technology development provides alternate processing for both refinery and cracker based C5s, removing them from lower cost gasoline pools and steam cracker feed and upgrading them to polymer grade propylene. At a time when propylene production is falling in the wave of increased ethane cracking, C5 Olefins Conversion offers a profitable, economic and energy conscious route to on-purpose propylene production, generating net margin increases of up to 20% over current C5 processing options.
|6:15 pm -
|Networking Reception
|8:00 am - 8:15 am
Opening Remarks
|8:15 am - 8:45 am
Direct Conversion of Propane to Propylene
Jeffrey H. Sherman Ph.D., President, Reaction 35, LLC.
|8:45 am - 9:15 am
Alternative Routes to MEG: the Many "Colors" of Technology
Global mono ethylene glycol (MEG) demand was 23 million metric in 2013 with a forecast growth rate well above GDP. Correspondingly, MEG producers have relied on technology innovations to allow then to be more aligned with their own markets including the ability to use alternative low cost feedstocks, minimize co-product glycols manufacture and/or manufacture "green" MEG precursor material for "green" PET bottle resins. This paper discusses the process technologies, and capital and operating economics associated with such innovations including conventional, high MEG efficiency, coal- and biomass-based MEG technologies.
Don Bari, VP, Chemicals Technology & Analytics, IHS Chemical
|9:15 am - 9:45 am
Bio-based Technology Developments to PET – Biobased PX
Partially bio-based PET (30% bio-content) has been successful in the marketplace, most notably in North America with Coca-Cola's Plantbottle packaging for Dasani water. In this session, Kieran Furlong, Director Chemicals Business Development at Virent, will discuss their technology for the production of 100% bio-based PX which will enable a fully bio-based PET. Virent has demonstrated its novel BioForming technology for aromatics on a wide variety of feedstocks including conventional sugars, ligno-cellulosic hydrolyzates and ethanol. Kieran will address scaling –up the technology and the challenges and opportunities this presents.
Kieran Furlong, Director, Chemicals Business Development, Virent, Inc.
|9:45 am - 10:15 am
Global Capital Investment and Cost Escalation Outlook
Russell Heinen, Senior Director, Technology & Analytics Group, IHS Chemical
|10:15 am - 10:45 am
|Refreshment and Networking Break
|10:45 am - 11:15 am
Direct Conversion of NGL to Aromatics
Cyclar is a commercially-proven process for converting propane to and butane into benzene, toluene and mixed xylenes, which can then be further processed in an aromatics complex to produce the building blocks for hundreds of thousands of everyday products, such as water bottles, tires and polyester. A significant quantity of by-product chemical grade hydrogen can also be recovered from the process. The recent development of lower cost NGLs has renewed a string interest in the process.
|11:15 am - 11:45 am
Developing "Bankable" Technology Feasibility Evaluations (Case Study: New Routes to Butadiene)
Making the right decision regarding technology selection is critical when selecting from among non-commercialized, unproven technologies. Bio-technologies especially carry higher risk than conventional petrochemical development. What are the risks associated with technology selection and how can they be mitigated? Even so called more mature technology may have medium to high risk; good chemical process engineering and project development fundamentals are critical for ultimate success.
Edward Glatzer, Managing Director, Technology & Analytics, IHS Chemical
|11:45 pm - 12:00 pm
|Closing Remarks
|12:00 pm - 2:00 pm

Kaspersky Anti-Virus (Антивирус Касперского; formerly known as AntiViral Toolkit Pro; often referred to as KAV) is a russian antivirus program developed by Kaspersky Lab. It is designed to protect users from malware and is primarily designed for computers running Microsoft Windows, though a version for Linux is available for business consumers.
The program is well known for its high detection rates. According to AV-Comparatives, Kaspersky Anti-Virus rates highly amongst virus scanners in terms of detection rates, even despite the fact that the program has failed two Virus Bulletin tests in 2007. In addition, PC World recently awarded Kaspersky Anti-Virus 6 the Editor's Choice in its 2007 anti-virus comparative.
Kaspersky Anti Virus 7.0 was "A-listed" by the prestigious UK PC journal PC Pro in late 2007, where it scored very highly for detection and removal of malware. PC Pro attribute this to "a combination of the software's heuristic scanning and uncompromising approach to database updates. While many packages check for new virus signatures on a daily basis, Kaspersky runs to an hourly schedule, improving your PC's chances of being immunized before an infection reaches it."
Kaspersky Anti-Virus generally has a fast response rate, being able to provide signatures for new viruses in zero to two hours after outbreak on average.
In addition, Kaspersky Anti-Virus, like the majority of its competitors, is incompatible with numerous other antivirus and antispyware software... This limitation is severe on operating systems without built in firewalls such as Windows 2000 since the Kaspersky installation routine can automatically uninstall incompatible applications, leaving the system exposed.
In addition, specialized editions of Kaspersky Anti-Virus is available for different varieties of Linux servers and offers protection from most forms of malware.
|Windows 2000 (SP4 or higher) / XP (SP2 or higher) / XP Professional x64 Edition
|Windows Vista (32/64-bit)
|Linux (Red Hat, Mandriva, Fedora, Debian, SUSE)
|Intel Pentium 300 MHz or higher (or equivalent)
|Intel Pentium 800 MHz or higher (or equivalent)
|Intel Pentium 133 Mhz or higher (or equivalent)
|Free hard drive space
A DVD-ROM or CD-ROM drive, Internet Explorer 5.5 or above and Windows Installer 2.0 or above are also required for the installation of Kaspersky Anti-Virus in Windows.
The current mainstream version range of Kaspersky Anti-Virus (220.127.116.11 and higher) only supports Windows 2000, XP and Vista. The last version of Kaspersky Anti-Virus that still supported Windows Me was 126.96.36.1991.

FOOD-POISONING is bad enough on Earth, but bacteria in space can mutate into super-virulent strains that threaten astronauts' health.
The finding confirms a long-standing suspicion that microbes hitch-hiking on shuttle missions could mutate in unpredictable ways in micro-gravity.
Cheryl Nickerson at Arizona State University in Tempe and her colleagues sent salmonella bacteria into space for 12 days on the shuttle Atlantis in September 2006. After their trip, the microbes had altered the way they express 167 genes compared with bacteria that had remained on Earth. Not only that, the team found that the space-mutated salmonella was almost three times as likely to kill mice it infected than was its Earth-bound counterpart (Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, DOI: 10.1073/pnas.0707155104).
Nickerson found that a protein called Hfq was responsible for regulating most of the mutated genes. Salmonella strains without Hfq did not show the gene-expression changes, making Hfq ...

I am pretty much the lamest person ever and have spent the morning overcome with silly super-mushy feels inspired by the sight of two robots wed in holy matrimony.
Influenced by the wish to get married (srsly I'm only in it for the cake though) and also possibly by my irrational female emotionality, I have decided that everybody needs to see some of the best gamer wedding stuffs that I have found on my travels down the Information Superhighway (that's the Internet for those who don't know – and also obviously not literal travel, I didn't actually go anywhere).
Halo player Moviesign built this custom map and got his special lady to play it with him. If that doesn't make you go "Daaaaawwww" it's highly possible that you don't have a soul.
I think that these are almost too cute to exist in RL. You know it, I know it; let's just admit it and sit and bask ourselves in all the adorable.
According to society, gamers don't have contact with the opposite sex ever. Like, EVER. This ironic wedding cake is both nommable and amusing. The only thing that makes me slightly sad is that itm reeks a bit of Hipsterism which tbh I cannot tolerate. Those pseudo-intellectual flannel-wearing winkyfaces have ruined enjoyment of irony for everyone. Yes, Hipsters: you're not subverting society; really, it's more that you just suck.
Although endorsing an exaggerated racial stereotype in the form of Mario himself and also, covered in fondant icing which is actively disgusting, this wedding cake is so aesthetically cool it makes my eyes burn.
I'm not going to say much about these photos because I don't have enough adjectives to convey the awesome.
This couple built giant versions of themselves in Minecraft. That is all.
I think I've managed to out-saccherine myself enough for one day, so before you get sick and vomit rainbows all over yourself, I'll stop. And maybe cry because I am FOREVER ALONE (JK, I am strong and independent and don't need no man; and anyways, I have cats).

Great article. My mom's dog has always vacuumed up her food like it's some kind of race. I've found that sticking small, metal dipping cups (like the kind you find at restaurants when you order something with honey mustard or cocktail sauce) upside-down into the food helps. You can also use bowls if the dog dish is big enough. My dogs have to eat around the cups, and after they've gotten the food outside of the cups, they have to figure out how to move the cups and get the food underneath them (easy for my rotti-lab mix, little tougher for my mom's rat terrier-beagle mix).
Granted, neither of these dogs are bowl-flippers, so I don't think this would help in that scenario.

Canine degenerative myelopathy (DM) is an uncommon, progressive degenerative disease that causes hind limb weakness and paralysis and eventually affects the front limbs, as well. The symptoms of DM start gradually, usually in adult dogs over 5 years of age. Early in the course of the disease, affected dogs will start to lose muscle coordination and balance in their rear legs (ataxia). They will develop slight or incomplete hind end paralysis (paraparesis), which will progress to total rear end paralysis (paraplegia), accompanied by varying degrees of urinary and/or fecal incontinence. As the dog loses its ability to stand and use its hind legs, it may develop bed sores and wounds from urine scalding, which can be extremely painful. It usually takes somewhere between 6 and 12 months for full pelvic paralysis to develop in dogs with DM. The front legs will be affected next, starting with lack of coordinated movement (ataxia) and progressing to complete paralysis. The ability to chew and swallow can also be affected. When all 4 legs are paralyzed, the condition is called "tetraplegia." Tetraplegia usually occurs within several years of the diagnosis. The dog's sensory perception abilities are unaffected by this disease, and most affected dogs do not suffer from pain.
Owners of dogs with degenerative myelopathy may notice one or more of the following signs as their dog's disease progresses:
Some owners mistakenly assume that their older pets are developing arthritis, when DM is actually the culprit. Affected animals usually become incontinent late in the course of the disease, although they do not seem to be painful. In fact, one of the key clinical features of canine degenerative myelopathy is the absence of any localizable spinal pain.
Degenerative myelopathy is most often diagnosed in aging German Shepherds. Other breeds that have been reported with DM include the American Eskimo, Belgian Shepherd, Bernese Mountain Dog, Boxer, Cardigan Welsh Corgi, Chesapeake Bay Retriever, Collie, Giant Schnauzer, Golden Retriever, Great Dane, Irish Setter, Irish Terrier, Kerry Blue Terrier, Kuvasz, Labrador Retriever, Miniature Poodle, Old English Sheepdog, Pembroke Welsh Corgi, Pug, Rhodesian Ridgeback, Siberian Husky, Soft-Coated Wheaten Terrier, Standard Poodle, Weimaraner and Wirehaired Fox Terrier. Mixed breed dogs have also been diagnosed with this disease. The mean age of affected dogs is 9 years, with males and females being affected equally. It is extremely uncommon for young dogs to develop DM.

13 Nov Champagne Cascade at The Brown Palace
Posted at 03:40h in Destinations 0 Comments
Champagne was flowing at the Brown Palace this weekend. On Sunday, the hotel honored veterans with the 25th annual Champagne Cascade and simultaneously called a start to the holiday season. Hundreds of people came to get their bubbly on as champagne topped off 6,000 glasses forming the two story pyramid. But before the glasses sparkled with the delicious beverage, master swordsmen used an antique saber to sever bottle necks of Moet & Chandon bottles. Champagne flew from the bottles to the delight of crowds bellied up against railings overlooking the open atrium. Live jazz music and a performance by Hazel Miller singing jazzy and soulful lyrics colored the atmosphere even more. The hotel also cut a check for $10,000 to the American Red Cross, reminding us that giving back is at the forefront of the holiday spirit.

SCHOOL BUS Booze Stop
By Jackie Burrell
Thursday, January 8th, 2009 at 4:19 pm in Just Bizarre.
Ahem. Seems a Billings, Montana school bus driver added an extra, unauthorized stop to her route: a local liquor store. According to the Associated Press story, a passerby spotted the distinctive vehicle and unexpected shopper, and called police. It gets better … er, worse. When cops caught up with her and boarded the bus, the driver figured she wouldn't get in trouble if they didn't see the booze… so she asked a middle school student to hide the bottles in the back of the bus. Um, your thoughts?

Michael Jordan's girlfriend Yvette Prieto is not pregnant, says his spokeswomanContinue reading.
Is Michael Jordan's girlfriend, Yvette Prieto, pregnant?
Rumors are swirling that Michael Jordan's girlfriend, Yvette Prieto, is pregnant. MediaTakeout.com is reporting that one of its "most trusted snitches" is telling them that the former Bulls legend and the 30-year-old serial celeb dater Prieto are expecting their first child.
Because it's the Internet, and because these rumors can be squashed just as quickly as they flare up, we advise that you hold off on saving the baby shower date. Regardless, it's some interesting fodder for an otherwise uneventful Thursday.
Jordan and Prieto were recently spotted at the Kentucky Derby, where ESPN cameras captured the color-coordinated couple taking in the day's festivities. Earlier this year, the couple purchased a suburban Miami home together.
Jordan has two sons and a daughter with his first wife, Juanita.

Is Chelsea Houska Engaged to Adam Lind?
Chelsea Houska and her baby daddy Adam Lind just can't get enough of each other! These two are constantly breaking up and getting back together over romantic four wheeler rides, and frankly it's hard to keep tabs on their relationship status. But are Chels and her man currently engaged? Hah, as if!
Chelsea and Adam have been broken up for over a year, and they never made their relationship official while they were still dating. Sure, Adam gifted Chelsea a sweet-as-pie promise ring, but considering that he broke up with her three days later it hardly counts as an engagement. Who knows what the future holds for this hot couple, but we have a feeling Chelsea will move on to a man who knows how to treat her right!
Not that there's anything wrong with Adam. You know … other than his general attitude and facial hair pattern.

Marc Pouliot Vs. The Average

Last season, Marc Pouliot average 10.24 minutes of five on five ice-time per game. Despite that meager role, many Oilers fans complain that MacTavish overused him and he shouldn't even have been on the team. I believe that isn't the case.

The salary cap era has been interesting, to say the least. One of the common themes of it has been that it pays off far more to develop younger players because they generally make less money due to a more restrictive contract.
That's true, but many people take it to mean that young players should get more of a shot as a result. In point of fact, the opposite is true – at least for junior-aged players.

More Power
We have so many toys inside our Mustangs these days that we need a battery designed to keep up. Bosch's [(888) 715-3616; www.boschautoparts.com] new Absorbed Glass Mat battery yields a high-energy capacity that has the power to handle a number of demands at once.

Purolator [(800) 459-5599; www.purolatorautofilters.com] synthetic filter is built with 100-percent synthetic media that is custom-engineered to allow you to realize maximum benefits from synthetic motor oils. "Many people that use synthetic motor oils do so because they don't want the hassle of changing their vehicle's oil frequently," said Chuck Kerrigan, director Regional Business Unit, North America, for Purolator. "However, in order to take advantage of the extended life offered by synthetic oils, motorists also need an oil filter that has the ability to continue to capture and hold the tiny particulates that accumulate over time," Chuck added. These filters are designed to have substantially more capacity than conventional oil filters. This allows the filter to capture and safely hold more contaminants generated over the extended life of synthetic oils without getting clogged.

Green building design process works with the natural landscape. A series of informed decisions that recognize the site and materials use to reduce cost, maintenance of the place and energy usage. Eco homes are safer, healthier and more comfortable to live in and of course, cost less to operate.
Eco homes connect the people to the community and the land around them. There are several green living ideas available on the market today, one just has to research well and be aware to be able to help the environment.
An example of this is passive solar design, which is a natural heating and cooling system, it is energy efficient and easy to adapt. The practical use of building orientation, stone floors, window placement, reflective barriers and other eco home technologies to control solar energy help preserve our natural resources.
In warm climates, the broader side should face north or south – this will avoid excessive heat gain during sunrise and sunset. Use solar sunscreens and deep overhangs to shield glass areas. In colder climates, eco homes can capture heat and store them in materials like concrete or stone and be slowly released during nighttime.
Eco homes should have an open floor plan that optimizes the effect of passive heating and cooling. Doors/windows should be strategically placed to catch breeze and allow for cross ventilation. Also, double glass panes will provide insulation for air space between the glass panes, thereby reducing heat transfer.
Attic spaces, especially in hot regions, can accumulate heat and transfer it to rooms below. An AC duct in the attic will efficiently absorb the heat. Proper attic insulation and exterior walls are very important in making indoor temperature comfortable. For a livable eco home, remember that lighter colored roof materials will absorb less heat than darker ones.
Eco homes also reduce water usage. Catch rainwater by using RWP and gutters; store water that falls from the roof and terrace. Also, use front loading washing machines, low flow toilets and lower shower heads to reduce the use of water and energy.
To build your eco home, be sure to use recyclable, locally produced and renewable materials whenever possible. Consider alternative materials such as straw bales, rammed earth or structural insulated panels. Also use recycled wood floors and bamboo floors, which can grow rapidly in selected rainforest. Hard surface floors are also advisable as they do not hold dust, allergens or molds and are very durable.
Trees, bird habitats and vegetation on site should not be harmed during eco home construction. Dispose of construction waste properly. Never bury waste on site. Native trees, rocks and grasses can be incorporated into the design or act as natural drainage. Eco homes are an implementation of green practice which make homes more cost effective, sustainable and enjoyable to live in.

CINCINNATI — The entire 6th Circuit Court of Appeals in Cincinnati will hear oral arguments on June 6 to determine if the case against convicted killer John David Stumpf should be remanded back to the Guernsey County Common Pleas Court for re-sentencing.
The en banc (full panel) hearing is scheduled to begin at 10:30 a.m.
"We expect a decision in a timely manner after the hearing," said Guernsey County Prosecuting Attorney Daniel Padden.
The 6th Circuit court in October 2011 granted a request by the State of Ohio to have entire court review the case prior to overturning the death sentence previously imposed against Stumpf.
In August of last year, justices with the 6th Circuit court ruled 2-1 to overturn the death sentence based on an alleged violations of Stumpf's due process rights.
He was convicted of killing Mary Jane Stout of New Concord in 1984.
According to the court's previous ruling, Stumpf would have been released form prison unless prosecutors granted him a new sentencing hearing within 90 days.
Stumpf was convicted of aggravated murder in Mary Jane's death and attempted aggravated murder for shooting her husband, Norman.
The appeals court found prosecutors had evidence and believed Clyde Daniel Wesley, a co-defendant, was the man responsible for killing Mrs. Stout.
Wesley was convicted of aggravated murder, attempted aggravated murder and aggravated robbery during a trial in the Guernsey County Common Pleas Court. He was sentenced to life in prison, where he remains today.
The appeals court, which heard arguments in the case in 2007, overturned Stumpf's conviction and death sentence, but the U.S. Supreme Court reinstated the conviction.
The case was then sent back to the appeals court to determine whether Stumpf should receive the death penalty.
Stumpf and Wesley allegedly traveled to the Stouts' home near Interstate 70 to rob them.
They advised the Stouts that their vehicle had broken down on I-70 and they needed to use a telephone to call for help in order to gain access to the home.
A third man, Norman Edmunds, remained outside the home.
Stumpf pleaded guilty to the murder charge, but then denied shooting Mary Jane Stout. He admitted to shooting Norman Stout, but said Wesley shot Mary Jane Stout during an attempt to have his plea withdrawn.
Stumpf is scheduled to remain on death row until the court rules on the case.

J&J's past year can be summed up in one word: recalls. The healthcare products giant had a lot of them, fueling discussions of a company that has lost its luster. This came in addition to lawsuits alleging fraudulent marketing of its antipsychotic Risperdal. The impact of these missteps shows: the government shutdown of a McNeil plant hurt inventory levels, and OTC sales fell 3% in the US last year. But a recent poll showed consumers are still attached to J&J. CEO William Weldon, who was in place during much of the product recalls, was replaced by Alex Gorsky.

Modified Mustangs & FordsFeatured Vehicles
1968 Shelby GT350 Mustang - Rebel With A Cause
Throwing Conventional Wisdom Aside, Chuck Young Drives His Red Shelby GT350 Hard
With the stock transmission sidelined, Chuck ordered up a Tremec TKO600 five-speed gearbox, a Pro 5.0 shifter, and a 10.5-inch King Cobra late-model clutch assembly. A JMC hydraulic clutch and master cylinder now squeeze the Ford Racing disc against a Fidanza aluminum flywheel. Right behind the 3-inch aluminum driveshaft you'll find a beefy Currie 9-Plus rearend housing. It's been fortified with a 3.89 gears and a Detroit Truetrac differential.
As you can imagine, Chuck was quite unimpressed with the factory Shelby handling, especially considering most of the current crop of front-wheel-drive econoboxes would probably run circles around it. Adding more power to an underwhelming suspension would only exacerbate the situation, so Chuck bolted in a Total Control Products power rack-and-pinion to start with. Following that, the frontend also saw the addition of a coilover front suspension from Global West. QA1 coilover shocks combined with Eibach springs now work with a 11/4-inch front antisway bar to make sure that the Mustang handles like a modern Quarter Horse.
The rear suspension was also modified extensively, starting with the five-leaf mid-eye springs. Competition Engineering Slide-A-Link traction bars are employed along with a pair of QA1 adjustable shocks. The suspension renovation put this Pony in the modern era of handling performance, and with that, there was only one area left to upgrade-the brakes.
Baer Brakes has long been associated with Mustangs, so they are right at home on Chuck's GT350. Factory parts set aside, Chuck installed Baer's Track front system, which utilizes 13-inch rotors and two-piston calipers, while the rear kit features 12-inch rotors and single-piston calipers. It's worlds apart from the factory brakes, both in performance and looks.
One other area that stayed relatively stock in appearance is the interior. Just like the outside of the car, Chuck wanted the appearance of the factory Ford/Shelby look on the inside as well. The only modifications made to the cabin space are the five-speed shifter patterns on the shift knob and the console.
After the mechanical work was completed, Chuck spent the next two months or so sorting the car out, and making sure that in the end, it would be turnkey reliable.
"I'm not at all sorry what I did," says Chuck. "I've gotten some criticism over it, but it's my money and my car. They're no fun if they are just sitting there, and this one is a hoot to drive now with the five-speed, different rearend, better power, and new suspension. I'm not afraid to take it any place." We think Chuck made the right call. Carroll and his crew built these cars a long time ago to be driven and driven hard, which is just what our man Chuck is doing today.
"It's hard for me to do anything concourse wise. I guess there's too much hotrodder in me." Sounds like a rebel with a cause if you ask us.

Riding horses on a regular basis has positive effects for those with disabilities, Mississippi State researchers say.
Having observed the effects of horseback riding on the physically impaired, MSU Department of Kinesiology professors Adam Knight and Katherine J. Gilliland have found positive changes in their movement.
Some of them include increased range of motion and more stability, Knight reported.
"You simply cannot put a value on watching a person walk when he was told he would never be able to," Gilliland said in an e-mail, "or a child laugh while
working on motor skills when all they would do before was cry because it hurt too much to move, or a person with autism making social connections when they were unable to in the past, or a mother hearing her chld talk for the first time and in a complete sentence saying, 'today I rode a horse.' "
MSU's 4-H program recently opened an arena in West Point called the Elizabeth A. Howard Therapeutic Riding and Activity Center (TRAC).
4-H is now taking applications from prospective riders and volunteers, ages 14 and up, for classes starting in March, said certified instructor Mary Riley, who can be reached by calling 325-3350 or by sending an email to firstname.lastname@example.com [3].
Riley specializes in coaching people with disabilities, such as down syndrome, autism, spinal chord injuries and cerebral palsy, to boost their confidence, communication skills and motion by showing them how to not only ride horses but to do things challenging for most people like throw balls or hitting them with bats while on horses.
"Our herd selection is a stringent process," said Riley, emphasizing the importance of happy and calm horses able to walk with people for long periods of time.
Riley's son was born with with a hearing impairment and benefited from riding, later earning a degree in audiology.
"It gave him a little edge," Riley said.
The new TRAC center, located on Churchill Road behind the Mossy Oak Outdoor Outlet, opens up opportunities for psychology researchers along with those studying animal and dairy science at MSU.
The Department of Kinesiology will presented their research on therapeutic riding the Southeastern Chapter of the American College of Sports and Medicine.
