Reviews for the Acer Aspire 4820TG-6847
Source: Techreview Source
Performance with the Acer Aspire TimelineX AS4820TG-6847 was very impressive as it beat out most of the other laptops in this same category in testing. The system had no problem playing steaming video from the Internet, playing DVD movies, video encoding and doing the average computing tasks. Gamers will be happy to know that this laptop, thanks to the AMD Radeon discrete graphics, can play today's 3D games without much trouble. You might have to dial down some graphics settings just slightly, but in most games, it works good at the default settings.

For consumers looking for power and portability--plus a DVD drive--the Acer Aspire TimelineX AS4820TG is a very good choice. For $799 ($729 on Amazon), you get Core i5 speed and AMD graphics muscle, impressive Dolby sound, and more than 5 hours of battery life. While we wish this notebook offered stronger Wi-Fi performance, it outperforms the 14-inch competition in most tests. The ASUS U41Jc ($815) lasts longer on a charge and has better gaming chops, and the Samsung QX410 ($799) is sleeker, but both of those laptops cost at least $70 more. So if you want a lot of oomph on the go for an aggressive price, get the TimelineX AS4820TG.

14.0": 14 inch display size is a mixture between the small formats of subnotebooks and the 15 inch standard display. The reason why so many people like displays with medium size is, that this size is not exhausting for the eyes, does not need too much energy and the laptops can be kept quite compact.» To find out how fine a display is, see our DPI List.
2.1 kg: These sub-notebooks weight less than the average of all notebooks, but represent a heavier class of weight among the sub-notebooks. 13 inch displays are normal for this class of weight.

The following is an archive of a post made to our
'vox-tech mailing list'
by one of its subscribers.
i'm trying to configure an epson stylus color 600.
when i print, the job simply disappears into the void without a trace.
i know it gets spooled because if i stop lpd and try to print, the job
appears in /var/spool/lpd/es600. then if i enable lpd, the job
disappears. the printer lights never blink. so SOMETHING right is
happening. at least as far as spooling the job goes.
also, i can cat a file to /dev/lp0, so THAT'S working.
forget that i haven't been able to get it working yet. i have a
different question. i'd like to know where the job goes.
here's the printcap i'm using:
lp|lp720|Epson Stylus Color 600 - 720dpi:\
and here's /usr/local/sbin/es600-720
# 720 dpi filter for the Epson Stylus Color 600
gs -q @stc600p.upp -sOutputFile=- -
echo "hello" >> /tmp/printer
do you see where i'm about to go with this? /tmp/printer never shows
up. i've set the input filter in printcap, but as far as i can tell,
it's not being used.
i hate setting up printers; maybe because i know so little about how
printing works. here's what i think happens:
1. lpr spools the job into the spool directory specified by printcap's sd.
2. lpd "somehow" knows the job is there and sends the job through the
input filter.
3. the input filter writes the translated job to standard out, which is
connected back to lpd.
4. lpd ships the job to the device, printcap's lp.
Q1: is this correct?
Q2: why am i not seeing "hello" in /tmp/printer?
Q3: is there _really_ no debugging/verbose switches for lpd?
note, installing lprng isn't an option. the system that i'm using
normally uses my laserjet 6MP, and i'd like to disturbe the printing
system "as little as possible" so i don't muck up my laserjet
plus, lprng comes with _way_ too much documentation.

Album Summary
Notes & Reviews:
Gennadi Rozhdestvensky (b.1931) is the last living survivor of a great Russian quartet of conductors consisting of Mravinsky, Kondrashin and Svetlanov. He was the highly distinguished principal conductor of the BBC Symphony Orchestra from 1978 to 1981, an exciting period in the orchestra's history faithfully captured here. These recordings of Holst's Planets and Britten's Variations & Fugue on a Theme of Purcell have never been issued before on CD.
American Record Guide, July / August 2012
Lest one think GR's way with The Planets is a fluke, the program (or "program"?) ends with a vigorous, virtuoso performance of Baron Britten's Young Person's Guide to the Orchestra from a tour concert in Osaka, Japan, given the year after the Holst. Conductor and players revel in both the work's charm and its hearty British good humor. The recorded sound is every bit as impressive as in the Holst.
BBC Music Magazine, September 2012
Rozhdestvensky's affinity with British music is evident in this marvellously airy, epic Planets and sprightly Variations. Plain broadcast recording sound, but too enjoyable to be merely historic.

Pick one up and fill it out
Census Day is approaching next Thursday, April 1, and Davidson residents have begun receiving and sending back the 10-question forms. Can our town beat its below-average participation rate of 10 years ago? That's looking difficult. If you're one of the many local households that gets mail at a post office box, no form is coming your way. You'll need to pick one up, or wait for a Census worker to come interview you in person.
Census officials told DavidsonNews.net and local officials two weeks ago that residents with PO boxes here would receive door hangers at their homes alerting them to pick up Census forms at the post office. The idea was that mail carriers would deliver the door hangers. But the post office does not deliver mail to many addresses in town (and Census forms are not delivered to PO Boxes). Most of those door hanger alerts were sent back to the Census as undeliverable.
That leaves two options for those yet to get a form.
- Pick one up at the public library, town hall or other "Be Counted" sites that have been set up. (List below)
- Wait for a Census worker to knock on your door beginning in mid-May to collect your information in person.
Census officials say the simplest, most reliable, and least expensive method for them to count the population is through a form.
Census workers who go door-t0-door will visit a home up to six times between May 1 and July 10 in hopes of collecting that household's information.
Need a Census form?
You also can pick up forms at these "Be Counted" sites:
- Davidson Town Hall, 216 S. Main St.
- Davidson Housing Coalition, 220 Sloan St., M-F 10-1
- Ada Jenkins Center, 212 Gamble St.
- Davidson public library branch, 119 South Main St., on the Village Green, Davidson
Forms and assistance also are available at these Questionnaire Assistance Centers. Paid Census staff are on site 15 hours a week to answer questions:
- North Mecklenburg Senior Center, 18731 West Catawba Ave., Cornelius
- Salvation Army Thrift Store, 19706 One Norman Blvd., Cornelius

Just set up my new web page and am in the process of adding my artwork to it. I have 9 out there now and more to come...I'd appreciate you opinions.
These paintings are all from my imagination except for the seated figure, that one was done with a quick sketch in pencil and scanned into Painter, then completed in Painter
All the work was done in Painter IX and the resizing in Photoshop using Genuine Fractals.

Nice paintings but this forum is about the use of Painter as a software tool not for Painter art.
You should start a thread in one of the art sub-forums and provide a link to at least one work. Read the top threads in each forum to see what it's about and what goes there. If you have a fully presentable finished work you could start a thread in "It's Finally Finished". Be sure to post at least ONE picture. If you don't know how to do that read the FAQ at the top of the screen. It's really pretty easy.
Peace, Love and Harmony... I could never get them all into bed at the same time!

L. Sprague de Camp's star fell during the middle 1970s with the bankruptcy of Lancer Books. A Robert E. Howard revival took place at this time largely engineered by Glenn Lord's ceaseless work. There was an explosion of small press magazines that were Howard oriented, small press book publications by Fax and Donald Grant, and mass market paperbacks from Zebra. This in turn helped spark another wave of sword and sorcery fiction (much of it bad) in the late 1970s. Every other paperback had "In the Tradition of Conan" splashed on the cover including the Zebra editions of Talbot Mundy's Tros of Samothrace (which predated Conan). One thing that was missing was Conan. Then in late summer of 1977, The Hour of the Dragon restored to its Weird Tales text came out from Berkley Medallion. Karl Edward Wagner was to edit the Conan stories in a new package of six volumes. The books had the best covers that Ken Kelly ever did. Wagner produced fact filled forewords and afterwords with no psychoanalysis, character assassination, and back handed comments. Just so there was no confusion, the covers said "The Authorized Edition edited by Karl Edward Wagner." Then the series was killed. Hollywood was interested in making a Conan movie but wanted to deal with one entity. The end result was the formation of Conan Properties Incorporated. Kirby McCauley is probably the one who talked Glenn Lord into going along with L. Sprague de Camp. Henry Kissinger once said that NATO's purpose was to keep the U.S. in, the Russians out, and the Germans down. CPI did the same thing in keeping de Camp in, Robert E. Howard down, and Glenn Lord out. A board that included de Camp, Lord, and a de Camp ally ensured that Congor would be inflicted upons future generations of unsuspecting readers. Glenn Lord would be overruled in voting.
Kirby McCauley had brokered a deal with Bantam Books for Karl Edward Wagner to write three Conan pastiche novels. One de Camp's first acts was to kill the Karl Wagner book chronicling Conan's rise to king of Aquilonia. Wagner had already written a Bran Mak Morn pastiche entitled Legion From the Shadows which was turned in late. He was supposed to write a sequel called Queen of the Night which he never wrote. Zebra had to scramble and David C. Smith & Richard L. Tierney were brought in to write a Bran novel (For the Witch of the Mist). I am one who is sceptical that Wagner would have ever written The Day of the Lion. If you read "The Truth Insofar as I Know It" by David Drake from Exorcisms and Ecstacies, it paints a picture of someone who consistently had problems delivering the promised goods. Wagner did write a detailed outline/synopsis for Day of the Lion that appeared in Simba (September 1978).
One version I have heard is Wagner salvaged some parts of Day of the Lion that were incorporated into what would become The Road of Kings. The Wagner Conan pastiche is an interesting book. Rick McCollum describes it as Conan as Che Guevara. It reads like a Kane story to me. Some people hate the novel, others really like it. Wagner used the Chinese terra cotta soldiers as the idea for the novel. Wagner turned in two–thirds of the novel in 1978 claiming the remaining portion has been accidently left out of the envelope. He then pulled an all nighter to finish the last chapter. L. Sprague de Camp would later complain that the Wagner novel did not fit in with his Conan chronology. There are stories that de Camp constantly harped on Wagner while he was working on the novel to make it fit in with de Camp's ideas.
If you go over to David Drake's website and go to his comments regarding the writing of Killer, there is a repetition of problems. He later never delivered on a medical thriller novel for Bantam. Later on, there were problems with Wagner when he worked on a comic script called "Tell Me Dark." Either Wagner had incredibly bad luck with who he did business with or there was a problem with him delivering.
A Wagner version of Conan becoming king is intriguing and would have been preferable to what was delivered by de Camp. L. Sprague de Camp eliminated a rival editor and pastiche writer with extreme prejudice. No one was going to stand in his way.
Rusty adds:
Karl tells his side of the Killer and Tell Me, Dark stories in the last interview he did, posted at the Karl Edward Wagner: East of Eden website. Karl was and Dave is a friend, and I take no position one way or the other here, just note that Karl's version of what happened is available.
With regard to the tale of Conan's rise to kingship, after the formation of Conan Properties de Camp killed Karl's proposal for Day of the Lion because he had already decided that it would be he (along with Lin Carter) who would tell the story. The result, of course, was the lame Conan the Liberator.

Savickich takes over from Alexander Bobryshev, after the UAC board agreed to end his contract early.
UAC plans to increase its supply of civil aircraft by 30% over 2014 compared with this year. It intends to raise the rate of Sukhoi Superjet output and focus on development of the Irkut MC-21.
"To ensure continued growth we need UAC not only to increase production and performance of its member companies but also to work on new projects," says its president, Mikhail Pogosyan.
KAPO's aircraft line includes the Tupolev Tu-214 and this month it handed over a specially-developed version, the Tu-214VPU, to the Russian government.

My USB adapter WNA1100 refuses to connect to another wireless router
My USB adapter WNA1100 refuses to connect to another wireless router
My operating system is Windows7 and I use three different wireless routers A, B and C.
In my first installation I joined the first time the router A.
When I want to switch to router B or C will not work and
I am locked into using the router A.
"NativeWIFI Default Profile" is impossible to change and I am
locked to the Router A. I suspect the problem is related to Win7.
How can I change the parameters so that I can rejoin the router A or B?
I am in desperate need of a problem solving answer!
Re: My USB adapter WNA1100 refuses to connect to another wireless router
This is exactly what happens for me ...
I defined a new WIFI profile for my home WIFI network. I use a NETGEAR WNA1100 USB Adapter. The profile is setup to connect automatically. I also moved it above the Native WIFI Default Profile. Win7 always tries to connect to the Native WIFI Default Profile and not the profile I created. Also, when I restart Win7, the Native WIFI Default Profile moves to the top of the list of profiles. Also, when I try to change the Native WIFI Default Profile to use WPA2-PSK (AES) security instead of WEP, it lets me make the changes but it
reverts to WEP after it processes the changes and attempts to connect to the network.
How can I fix this so that Win7 will use my profile to connect to my home WIFI network and not the Native?
WIFI Default Profile. Win7 always connects using the NativeWIFI Default Profile despite having setup a different profile in 'Wireless Networks' control panel. I know I can edit this default profile, but does anyone know how to tell Win7 to use a different profile than this one by default? I've tried changing the positions of the profile so the one I want to use is at the top, but nope, still uses the default one. If I try deleting it, it comes back.
After removing both profiles and adding the profile for my home network, Win7 added the NativeWIFI Default Profile back automatically. My profile is setup to Automatically Connect to the network using WPA2-PSK (AES) security and the NativeWIFI Default Profile (using WEP security) is setup by Win7 to Manually Connect. Also, Win7 places the NativeWIFI Default Profile above my profile. Also, when I delete the NativeWIFI Default Profile, Win7 always puts it back and it goes above my profile. This is starting to look like the Win7 Manage Wireless Networks mechanism for allowing users to add and prioritise profiles is not working. Here is another thing that is happening: When I try to change the security for the NativeWIFI Default Profile to WPA2-PSK (AES) from WEP, Win7 lets me make the changes but it reverts to WEP after it processes the changes and attempts to connect to the network. This too seems to me that is a problem with Win7. If I could make this work, then I don't need to define a second profile.
The adapter I use WNA1100 is working properly and I am using it with no problems. The issue I have is with Win7 and the "Manage Wireless Networks" interface. It will not honor the fact that the WIFI profile I created for my home network should be connected to automatically as I have setup. It always wants to connect to the NativeWIFI Default Profile even though I setup my home network profile to Connect Automatically. I can do a manual connection to my home network with no problem.
It seems to me that this is a Win7 issue.
What to do? This is driving me crazy!!
Re: My USB adapter WNA1100 refuses to connect to another wireless router
I have solved this problem by updating to Netgear Genie Version 22.214.171.124
The previous version was not fully developed and contained an ugly bug.

An Italian Association (AIFO) in collaboration with the European Union (EU) and the Ministry of Agriculture has completed a three-week intensive agriculture training program for persons with disabilities in the country.
Representatives of 13 community based self-help groups from Margibi, Bong and Nimba counties covered under the community Based Rehabilitation Project of AIFO convened in Virginia at the BAHCAGWE National Transit Center for persons with disabilities to undergo series of Agriculture Training on Short Cycle Crop Production.
Serving as guest speaker during the closing program, Mrs. Richardia Badio-Dennis, Executive Director of the National Commission on Disabilities (NCD) said the battle for economic empowerment for persons with disabilities has "just begun" especially through agriculture, which is the means of survival.
"The battle has just begun; people with disabilities are also capable of contributing to the national economy; and therefore, the effort by AIFO and the EU in providing skills training to people with disabilities in the country is commendable because they (people with Disabilities) are also capable of contributing to the national economy," the NCD Executive Director said.
Mrs. Dennis stressed that if disabled people are empowered in various skills, it would help them to develop their potentials and ably contribute to the economy, noting "People with disabilities should not always beg for survival; rather they should contribute their quotas to the national economy."
The program, which began on October 22, 2012, is reportedly the first for persons with disabilities geared towards improving their livelihood and contribute to the economic development of the country rather than begging for alms.
Also speaking during the closing program, Dr. Renato Libanora, AIFO Country Director said the training program was important because it affords people with disabilities the opportunity to contribute positively to society and become self-reliance.
"This is a great experience for AIFO, EU and the Ministry of Agriculture, because people felt that people with disabilities are unable to undertake agriculture work, which is physical, but the resilience of participants created emotional empathy and we (AIFO) have created this opportunity, and we hope that they will utilize the skills learned," Dr. Libanora said.
The training is an initiative of a 3-year community based rehabilitation project of AIFO Liberia supported by the European Union, from March 2010 to February 2013.
The training is intended to provide the self-help groups in the three counties covered by the CBR project for persons with disabilities basic skills and knowledge to promote income generation and sustainable livelihood.
According to AIFO, the training is part of the livelihood component of the EU-Funded community based rehabilitation project for persons with disabilities in Liberia
At the end of the training on Saturday, November 10, 2012, 16 persons were honored and certificated from the three counties and their trainers.

As of Tuesday, August 14, 2012
© Copyright 2015 Albany Herald
AUBURN, Ala. — Philip Lutzenkirchen has claimed his spot as one of Auburn's fan favorites.
He has 27,000-plus Twitter followers and, now that quarterback Cam Newton has moved on to the NFL, the tight end draws the biggest cheers whenever the Tigers' starting lineup is announced at Jordan-Hare Stadium.
It's an unusual role for a player who until this year hasn't been in an offense that featured his position.
"I've never heard a tight end get the biggest cheer in the stadium until last year," said Jay Boulware, Auburn's tight ends and special teams coach. "It was Lutz, every time. I was teasing him in the meeting about that (recently at practice). I said, 'You guys should hear when they announce the starting lineup and they say Lutz's name. It is the biggest cheer on our football team, by far.' "
"It used to be the quarterback. When Cam was here, obviously it was Cam. It just struck me as odd one day when all of a sudden it became Lutz. He's pretty popular."
Like many things in this state, you can trace that popularity at least partly to the Iron Bowl.
Lutzenkirchen's 7-yard touchdown catch early in the fourth-quarter completed the scoring in a 28-27 victory over Alabama two years ago and kept the Tigers on track for the national title. It might have been overshadowed by the Newton-led comeback at the time, but Auburn fans didn't forget.
His awkward but enthusiastic celebratory dance was fairly memorable, too.
"He made one of the biggest plays in Alabama history. I'm talking about Alabama and Auburn history. Actually it is Alabama history, too," Boulware said. "When he caught that touchdown pass against Alabama and did that little touchdown dance, the Lutzie as they called it. I think that pretty much won him over with the fans."
His popularity also might stem from Lutzenkirchen being personable and articulate. He has interned the past two summers with a group called Youth for Christ. He visited with high school kids around the area, along with defensive end Nosa Eguae this summer and quarterback Barrett Trotter last year.
"There's not many tight ends on the same platform that I have," he said. "That goes back to catching touchdowns and just the way I was raised, being well-spoken and trying to do the right thing all the time. I think people appreciate that, especially when you hear about all these college athletes getting in trouble all the time and not doing the right thing. It definitely goes back to how I was raised and my family. I think it's refreshing for people to see athletes have success, but at the same time represent themselves and their university in the right way."
Fullback/tight end Blake Burgess sums up his teammate's popularity on two fronts.
"He is Mr. Touchdown," Burgess said. "He's a great person all around. He's one of the nicest guys I've ever been around. If anybody should have 27,000 Twitter followers, it should be Lutzenkirchen."
Lutzenkirchen also scored the game-winning touchdown against South Carolina last season and the go-ahead fourth-quarter score to help beat the Gamecocks two years ago.
He led the Tigers with seven touchdown catches last season — on 24 receptions — and already owns the school's career mark for a tight end with 14. Then he was a favored red zone target for offensive coordinator Gus Malzahn, sneaking out of the backfield after a day of mostly blocking.
Now, Malzahn's successor, Scot Loeffler, has brought a pro-style passing game after tight end Evan Rodriguez was his leading receiver at Temple last season.
"He can be a wideout, he can be a tight end, he can come out of the backfield," Auburn coach Gene Chizik said. "You can move him around in multiple ways. He's the same old Philip. He's just an incredibly gifted pass receiver in open space. He knows that our No. 1 challenge with him right now is to make sure he can be a physical perimeter blocker meaning in a three-point stance from the tight end position, and that's going to be required.
"He's done it some in the past, but more of that's being required now. We know he can catch the ball. He's got to continue to improve in all phases, but he's certainly a key guy in our offense."

Mr. Noel Earl Polk, 69, died Tuesday, Aug. 21, 2012, peacefully at his home in Jackson surrounded by his family.
A memorial service will be held 2 p.m. Saturday, Aug. 25, 2012 at the Thad Cochran Building at the University of Southern Mississippi.
The family will greet friends from 1-2 p.m. Saturday.
Wright and Ferguson Funeral Home in Jackson is in charge of arrangements.
Born in Picayune on Feb. 23, 1943, Noel received his B.A. and M.A. from Mississippi College, and in 1970 he earned his Ph.D from the University of South Carolina.
Noel was an internationally recognized literary scholar and gifted professor. Regarded by many as the preeminent Faulkner scholar of his generation, he was a central figure in Faulkner studies for 40 years. He did the editorial work for the corrected editions of all of Faulkner's novels. Most recently he has co-edited a new edition of Faulkner's "The Sound and the Fury," finally fulfilling the author's plan to employ different colors of ink for sections of the opening chapter.
Noel's interpretive books and critical essays on Faulkner spanned decades and have given significant direction to Faulkner studies. These include "Children of the Dark House"; "Text and Content in Faulkner" (University Press of Mississippi) and "Faulkner's Requiem for a Nun: A Critical Study." He wrote as well on Eudora Welty, notably the 2008 "Faulkner and Welty and the Southern Literary Tradition" (UPM). His "Eudora Welty: A Bibliography of her Work" (UPM) is the standard reference text for Welty studies. He edited "Mississippi's Piney Woods People," "An Anthology of Mississippi Writers" and the restored edition of Robert Penn Warren's "All the King's Men." He also wrote a memoir, "Outside of the Southern Myth" and recently published a collection of poems, "Walking Safari."
A widely traveled lecturer, he spoke to literary audiences throughout Europe and in Russia, Australia, Japan, and South America. He held guest professorships in France, but is most remembered by his friends and students for his years of inspiring teaching and unselfish mentoring of graduate students in the U.S.
For twenty seven years he was Professor of English at the University of Southern Mississippi and editor of "The Southern Quarterly." He joined the faculty at Mississippi State University in 2004, where he edited the "Mississippi Quarterly" and served on the advisory committee for the College of Arts and Sciences. He also joined in the spirited support of the arts in Mississippi, having helped found the Mississippi Institute of Arts and Letters to recognize artistic achievement in the state.
Noel will be remembered as fun-loving, generous, kind, gracious and encouraging. He lived life fully—loved to travel, loved his rose bushes, loved going to baseball games, loved his grandchildren, and loved a good gin and tonic. He was absolutely devoted to his children and grandchildren, and despite being a world traveler, he was happiest at home with his friends and family.
He is loved and remembered by his children, Scott Polk of Orlando, Fla. and Jennifer Polk Heidelberg (Michael) of Jackson; three grandchildren, Sam, Emily and Francie Heidelberg, all of Jackson; brother, Mickey Polk (Angela) of Cleveland, Ohio; nephew Chad Polk (Paige) of Terry and niece Holly Polk Kennedy (Brad) of Hernando, and their children.
In lieu of flowers, memorials may be given to the Mississippi Institute of Arts and Letters Endowment Fund, P.O. Box 2346, Jackson, MS 39225-2346.

Work with Your CF Team
We often say one must walk before running. And it's smart to start by taking small steps toward a more physically active lifestyle. Start by thinking about your interests and abilities, then plan an exercise program, with help from your CF care team members.
To learn how a physical therapist can help you thrive, watch the Partnering for Care webcast.
Here are some basic steps to take before you begin an exercise program:
Your health care provider can help you develop an exercise program tailored for your level of fitness, your exercise and health goals and the equipment available.
You can learn more about exercise and physical fitness from MedlinePlus.
There are two major types of goals, product and process.
Your overall goal, or product goal, may be to move from an inactive lifestyle to doing regular physical activities at levels recommended for health. To reach this long-term goal, you may set a series of process goals.
These might include beginning with two 10-minute brisk walks on 5 days per week for two weeks; then doing three 10-minute walks, 5 days per week in the next two weeks; and moving on to a 30-minute walk, 3 days per week, plus a 10-minute jog, 1 day per week during the next two weeks, and so on.
The point is, rather than simply saying, "I plan on exercising more every two weeks," you set a specific goal of exercises with specified intensities, duration and frequency.
You also plan for a realistic time schedule (e.g., every Monday, Wednesday and Friday) that can be monitored and modified as needed. Even if the overall process goal is not fully reached, the exercise program still may result in meaningful changes in health through reaching the process goals.

With Bitter Herbs They Shall Eat It: Chemical Ecology and the Origins of Human Diet and Medicine by Timothy Johns, The University of Arizona Press, pp 356, $40
In the developed world we are generally assured of a diet free from plant poisons. As long as we remember to boil our kidney beans and avoid eating rhubarb leaves, we are unlikely to expose our bodies to dangerous levels of botanical toxins. In the natural environment, however, many plants contain chemicals that are highly toxic. Before the introduction of agriculture brought the plant kingdom under control, people faced a huge variety of potential foodstuffs, the vast majority of vegetable origin, and many of them toxic. How have we survived?
Experiment must have played a part in this process, and the commonplace occurrences of the accidental poisoning of children (who are less neophobic than the rest of us) probably provided useful information. ...

ONE piece of so-called "junk" DNA appears to have a surprising role. In voles at least, a particular stretch of non-coding DNA seems to control a male's fidelity.
Larry Young and Elizabeth Hammock at Emory University in Atlanta, Georgia, bred two strains of prairie voles. Each had different lengths of "microsatellite" DNA in a gene encoding a receptor for the hormone vasopressin. Microsatellites are repetitive DNA sequences which, like all junk DNA, do not code for proteins.
The strains differed in length by just 19 base pairs; a small difference, but enough to change the voles' behaviour. Males with the longer sequence were more attentive to their partners when offered a choice of another female, and spent more time with their pups (Science, vol 308, p 1630). In lab tests the researchers also found that the longer sequence increased enzyme activity.
Junk DNA makes up at least 95 per cent ...

The Sports Network
DATE & TIME: Saturday, January 19, 7 p.m. (et)
FACTS & STATS: Site: Cam Henderson Center (9,048) -- Huntington, West Virginia. Television: None. Home Record: ECU 10-1, MU 7-2. Away Record: ECU 1-4, MU 0-5. Neutral Record: ECU 0-0, MU 1-2. Conference Record: ECU 2-1, MU 1-1. Series Record: Marshall leads, 12-6.
GAME NOTES: The East Carolina Pirates seek their third win in a row when they take on the Marshall Thundering Herd in a Conference USA bout at the Cam Henderson Center.
This will be the 19th meeting between these schools on the hardwood. Marshall owns a 12-6 all-time series lead, but the Pirates survived last season's overtime thriller with a one-point win.
The Pirates were defeated, 67-54, by Memphis at FedExForum in their league opener, but they bounced back with an 88-85 overtime win over UCF and made it two in a row with an 89-78 victory versus Houston on Wednesday. Coach Jeff Lebo's squad has been a problem for the opposition on its way to a C-USA leading 78.8 ppg. Defensively, ECU has not been very impressive at all, allowing 69.6 ppg.
Maurice Kemp poured in 30 points for ECU in its victory over the Cougars. He went 13-of-20 from the floor and added nine rebounds to help the Pirates to their third win in four outings. Miguel Paul added 16 points, eight assists, and two steals while Akeem Richmond contributed 14 points off the bench. Ty Armstrong scored nine points and pulled down a game-high 12 rebounds. Kemp has made himself an early candidate for C-USA Player of the Year by producing a league-leading 18.6 ppg to go along with a tied for sixth best 8.4 rpg. Sampson is an even more impressive rebounder with 8.8 per contest while Paul is second in the conference with 5.7 assists a game.
Tom Herrion's Thundering Herd is one of the few teams in the conference ahead of ECU in rebounding with 40.6 per contest, thanks in large part to their twin towers Dennis Tinnon (10.9 ppg, 9.0 rpg) and Nigel Spikes (6.0 ppg, 8.4 rpg, 1.1 bpg). However, Marshall was not able to win the rebounding battle in its 74-63 setback at Texas-El Paso last Saturday. The loss dropped the Herd one game below .500 and to an even 1-1 conference record.
In Marshall's loss to the Miners, Tinnon paced the squad with 19 points on an efficient 6-of-7 field goal shooting, while DeAndre Kane and Elijah Pittman each scored 11 points. D.D. Scarver went for 10 points but shot just 2-of-9 from the floor. Pittman is averaging a team-high 14.5 ppg, while Kane nets 14.1 ppg and the dishes out a C-USA-best 7.6 assists per tilt in his first season running the point. The 6-foot-4 junior guard has posted only 11 points and 4.7 assists per contest in three outings since returning from an injury to his shooting hand that kept him out four games.
The Pirates are firing on all cylinders right now, but they may run into trouble against this underachieving Marshall unit. The Thundering Herd were expected to be second to only Memphis in the C-USA this season. Kane showed he can be the catalyst during last year's conference tournament. Marshall is going to playing with a sense of urgency due to its desperation for a win.
Sports Network Predicted Outcome: Marshall 77, East Carolina 72

Former Lt. Gov. James "Duke" Aiona says he is seriously considering running for governor this year.
Aiona, a Republican, told KITV that while he intends to run, he won't make a final decision or official announcement until he has gotten a better feel from voters and has his organization set up.
Aiona spent two terms as Hawaii's lieutenant governor, but lost to Neil Abercrombie in the race for governor in 2010.

Mars vs. Theta 116 VIII Edit
It is hard to reconcile the use of Class K for both these planets. The info from Star Trek: Star Charts should be considered wrong in this case. -- Cid Highwind 08:38, 25 Dec 2003 (PST)
Theta 116 VIII Class C or K? Edit
I don't know how someone decided that this was a Class K planet. If you freeze the image on the tape for the episode "The Royale" [TNG], you can see that the screen shows Theta 116 as a class C transjovian planet.
- Here's a DVD screenshot from the episode. You can clearly see that it is a "Class K Transjovian" planet. Compare the K with the C on the top in "Planetary scan" and you'll see that the "C" in this font looks quite different. --Jörg 08:47, 23 October 2006 (UTC)
...was classified as K type planet, not a class K/K class. ---Alan del Beccio 19:43, 31 January 2007 (UTC)

Rated 5 out of 5Â by tree214 what a lovely coat! I order a gray one online,so fast shipping. The coat so soft but have great shape and fit me. I recommend it to anyone . 2.4.2014
Rated 5 out of 5Â by glenn_coco LOVE this! Sooo happy I bought this! Such a good piece to transition me from Autumn to Winter here in Melbourne. ------------------------ The colour is much lighter and more 'speckly' than the pictures, which I like because it makes it much more versatile. I personally don't think the pockets add that much bulk in the hips and I'm a fairly hippy for my size - besides, you can tuck the top flaps into the pockets for a more streamline look. I plan on using the sweater clip idea suggested by another reviewer. ------------------------ Bought an XS (I'm in between an XS-S and planned on wearing this coat unbuttoned) and the fit is perfect. I'm 33.5"/26"/37" and the coat skims my body and doesn't make me look bigger at all. I think it drapes well. Sleeves might be a little snug on the upper arms if I plan on wearing it with sweaters. I'm 5'3" and the length is perfect to me. Hits around mid calf on me. ------------------------ The material is soft, doesn't feel heavy to wear and is very easy to move around in. It's Summer here in Australia, so yet to test out how warm it is. I struggle to find affordable majority percentage wool coats, so 80% wool makes me excited to see if it is warm in an Australian Winter. 1.27.2014
Rated 5 out of 5Â by Shopperholic Great Duster...:) This is one of my very favorite FP pieces...such a cool long lightweight sweater coat with great style...I agree that the pockets add to some bulk at the hips (& who needs that?)...so I solved the problem by clipping a beautiful retro sweater clip to the back...which pulls the extra material back for a more fitted look...I also added small shoulder pads which help give a nice tailored look...with a few little touches, this coat is a keeper...can't wait to wear...Thanks FP! 10.5.2013
Rated 4 out of 5Â by silvergirl Lovely BUT I am tall and lean and ordered an XS as that tends to fit me in FP. It was the correct size and I loved the look and how soft it was. Unlike another reviewer, I did not take issue with color or quality. The reason I returned it was because the pockets fell too high (at least for my height at 5'9 though I think it would have bugged me lower as well) and added undesirable padding making me look hippy dumpy and who needs that? I would prefer no pockets or hidden ones. Lovely piece otherwise though. 7.26.2013
Rated 2 out of 5Â by marf756 Extremely Disappointing I was so excited to receive this trench. When I got it, it was much lighter then I thought it would be. When I put it on, it looked cheap. The hem looked like a half fast job, the buttons were not sewn on well and it was not flattering in general. 7.24.2013
Rated 5 out of 5Â by lujac1219 Perfect Duster Great for layering, perfect weight, moves nicely. So happy with it, I bought it in both colors. 2.11.2014
Rated 5 out of 5Â by klibia One of my favorites I agree with the previous review - coat is very soft and comfortable & have great shape. It runs a little big so i ordered one size down and it fit me perfect. The only thing - materials are not the same as they are listed in the product description. Actually, body is 50% wool/50% nylon and trim fabric is 100% cotton. 2.7.2014
Rated 5 out of 5Â by tatertopdot LOVE IT~!!! I love this so much~! even though its wool its surprisingly soft and very light. the length of it is really nice too. Also it can fit for so many different looks, matches well with my combat boots or with some cute heels!!! And its perfect for the chilly fall that is soon to arrive :) 9.5.2013

Only connect! Two explorations in using graphs for IR and NLP
Lillian Lee, Cornell
December 4, 2007
Can we create a system that can learn to understand political speeches well enough to determine the speakers' viewpoints? Can we improve information retrieval by using link analysis, as is famously done in Web search, if we are dealing with documents that don't contain hyperlinks? And how can these two questions form the basis of a coherent talk? Answer: graphs! Joint work with Oren Kurland, Bo Pang, and Matt Thomas.
Lillian Lee is an associate professor of computer science at Cornell University. She is the recipient of the Best Paper Award at HLT-NAACL 2004 (joint with Regina Barzilay), a citation in "Top Picks: Technology Research Advances of 2004" by Technology Research News (also joint with Regina Barzilay), and an Alfred P.

Published by Dr Ida Jallow Sallah at its launching along with the book on Monitoring Schools, on Friday 28 December 2012
A knowledge based society is the key to development in the 21st Century. Those who know should therefore come to the aid of those who are waiting to know in order to bridge the knowledge gap between developed and developing countries which is impeded by the brain drain which make people like the author of these two magnificent books, Dr Ida Jallow Sallah to go in search of greener pastures before they could have time to add their quota to the knowledge base of their countries.
I am glad that she has taken a point of departure that I hope many of those who have acquired knowledge would soon decide to take, if they had not done so already, to bridge the knowledge gap.The book Quality Assurance, Pedagogic Guide for effective teaching and learning has filled a vacuum in the long search for professional and books produced by indigenes to guide teachers and school monitors.As a former classroom teacher and curriculum developer, I find it most refreshing to be asked to review this book.This book has shown in plain language that there is no mystery in teaching and learning. We do it every day at home, in our work places and in this very hall.The difficulty comes in being able to conceptualise how teaching and learning are taking place simultaneously and outline the most effective way to learn and teach in a more formal and structured environment aimed at expected national learning outcomes to impact on development. This book reminds us that in order to attain those outcomes we need to have knowledge of the arts and science of the classroom. The book proceeds to give the basic ingredients.The book deals with three fundamental areas of teaching and learning in a formal classroom setting. It deals with guiding principles of teaching and learning and the tools needed, Classroom Management and Classroom instruction.The book examines the different strategies and approaches associated with teaching and learning. It is indisputable that as portrayed by the book the teacher centred approach to teaching and learning is the oldest method. The book indicates very clearly that such an approach projects the teacher as the dispenser of information and the determinant of learning outcomes while the learner is reduced to a passive recipient. It elaborates on the forms of teacher centred approaches such as lecture, explicit Teaching, structured over view and didactic questions. Instead of dismissing the approach the book states and I concur that it could serve the purpose of knowledge transfer if the teacher is knowledgeable, perceptive, engaging and motivating.In contrast, the book highlights that the learner centred approach emerged from the pedo-centric view that the learner is the starting point the centre and the end of the education process. The book examines approaches like brainstorming dialogue journal, role play, rhyming, experimental learning, cooperative learning, project based learning, peer tutoring, discussion, learning communities mind reader, photo search, charades and scrabbles. These make learners explorers of ideas, movers of initiatives, imaginative and critical thinkers and confident and Independent innovators and creators.The book looks at the different strategies of learning such as the cognitive, mega cognitive and socio affective strategies. It examines the learning styles and the development of the different learning competences of the person.It elaborates on the issue of classroom preparation.
It focused on the Moral, intellectual, psychological and physical preparedness of both teacher and learner and reviews the effect of appearance and attendance. It broke down the curriculum and its components, the syllabus, the teachers guide, the scheme of work, lesson plan and lesson notes of the teachers. It reviews the way desks and other materials of the classroom are positioned in relation to the teacher and learner, how behaviour is managed and confidence and acceptance built in the interaction between learner and teacher.The book explores the role of assessment and evaluation and the importance of feedback and reinforcement to promote effective teaching and learning. It drew the curtain by projecting various classroom scenarios to give practical effect to all the analysis made. The author has done justice to the topic and I strongly recommend a copy for anyone who wishes to have command of the subject of effective teaching and learning in schools. Once again I congratulate the author for undertaking and successfully completing this mammoth task.The end

Inspiration (For Sale)
My limited edition monograph, The Pixelated Image, made Scott Kelby's Top 5 List today. It's a long list of favourites from gear to books to teachers to places. The Pixelated Image made it to his Top 5 Photography Books That Will Inspire You list. Quite an honour coming from Mr. Kelby.
This book is a collector's item. Only 100 will ever be printed, they're hand-signed and numbered, and they aren't cheap. The funds I am raising from the sale of this book are going towards my Women and Children First project which is a creative funding solution to get me shooting for NGOs working in the developing world with women and orphans and vulnerable children. Lots of great groups out there need photo-resources for fund-raising and advocacy, this will help me get there for one or two of them.
More information here.
Inspiration is the intangible we all run on as creatives. It's the in-breathing that gives us the spark, the a-ha! moment. It's what pulls us out of those ruts. No matter how you do it, you need to be aware of what inspires you so you can pro-actively pursue it. Especially when you're in the rut and can't see over the sides. A year ago I wrote this post on the nature of inspiration – if you're looking for some, give this a read.

Oliver Twist crooner, D'banj has finally come clear about his relationship with Genevieve, The artist, who appeared on a TV interview session with OAP, Toolz, was quizzed about his rumoured romance with Genevieve Nnaji and his answer was quite revealing.
"There must have been a romance, where there is smoke there's fire... I was feeling her sha, I like her," he said.
The music icon had in the past denied ever being in a romantic relationship with Genevieve even when it was obvious to all but the relationship suffered a setback for some undisclosed reasons.
D'Banj was said to have held a birthday bash for her while the relationship lasted.

Sex is complicated. No one understands that better than me. That's why if you have a question about sex, I'm prepared to answer your questions with sexpert sex advice in this special Sex.com Blog feature, Chico's Sex Advice.
Today's question comes from loyal Sex.com Blog pawn, Lo-Ugh Srr-Roy.
Lo-Ugh asks,
"Hi Chico. I'd like to bother you with the sensual quandary of my cubicle mate. She is into ghosts but doesnt know if she can sustain a sexual relationship with one. What advice do you have for her?"
Excellent question, Lo-Ugh! I do have some advice for her but she's not going to like it…
Personally, I've never had a sexual encounter with a ghost. I've never even seen a ghost nor felt the presence. One time I thought I saw a ghost but really it was just my friend John who hid in a closet and jumped out and scared the crap out of me.
Since I have no reason to believe that ghosts are any more real than vampires, werewolves, and Eskimos, I just think your friend is plain old crazy. My first piece of advice would be to seek psychiatric help.
No, I'm just playing.
Even though ghosts aren't real, your friend has a fetish known as "spectrophilia", which is surprisingly common. According to a poll I conducted a long time ago, 75% of people would have sex with a ghost if they had the chance. So thankfully she's not alone.
What I would recommend is seeking out a fellow spectrophile and engaging in some sexy ghost role-play. Though a fellow spectrophile may not be easy to find, it's easier than finding something that doesn't exist, a ghost.
Let's pretend for a moment that ghosts are real and they're exactly like they are in movies and TV. One characteristic of ghosts that stands out to me is they're unpredictability. They just pop up in your reflection, or float over your bed, or jump out of a closet. I suppose it's a benefit of not being bound by the physical world but if you're trying to maintain a sexual relationship with a ghost, it's just not going to work. You're basically getting booty called by a spirit who just comes and goes as he or she pleases. Is that really what you want? For that reason, I would not recommend pursuing a sexual relationship with a ghost.
At least with a sexy ghost role-play, you have the benefit of existing on the same plane of existence. Though you won't actually be having sex with a ghost, you will at least have some stability and consistency while having ghostly sex.
There is just one more thing you could potentially do to pursue a sexual relationship with a ghost…become a ghost. Right? Would that work? Become a ghost to have sex with all the ghosts? Or is the whole reason ghost sex is such a turn-on is because inter-spacial sex is so wrong?
I don't know anymore. Hopefully your friend found this week's Chico's Sex Advice helpful Lo-Ugh.
I love answering your sex questions! If you have a sex question for me:

Tomato sliced whole or sauced on Pizza?
Does anyone use whole, thinly sliced tomatoes or mostly sauce made from cans of San Marzano's? I've mostly used the cans and made a barely cooked sauce.
I've got a nice crop of end of season tomatoes to use tonight and I plan on no sauce, just the sliced tomatoes.
Do they work better above the cheese or below, on the dough?
Is whole tomatoes DOP allowed or is Pizza Margarita always crushed tomato?
Just curious, maybe I'll do it both ways tonight and see how it goes. -Dino
Re: Tomato sliced whole or sauced on Pizza?
I have had both good and bad experiences with fresh tomatoes. It really depends on the type of tomato. Some have a lot of water/seed pulp, I guess you would call them 'juicy'.
If you don't remove the pulp they will really make things soggy, even sliced very thin.
In general, plum tomatoes are considered more meaty with less water/pulp. A true 'sauce' tomato. San Marzanos seem to be the most flavorful, less acidic, and meaty of all.
Regardless of the type, you must slice fresh tomatoes VERY thin for pizza - you have the water/pulp issue as well as the skin, again depending on the type, you could have stringy, rubbery skins after going through the oven.
I guess the ideal way (they may not look very pretty or artsy) would be to blanch the tomatoes and remove the skins, then slice them thin and carefully pick out the seeds and pulp. Call me lazy, I just have not gone to that much trouble.
Re: Tomato sliced whole or sauced on Pizza?
I haven't tried whole sliced tomatoes, I generally go the sauce route, however i have used very very finely chopped, deseeded tomatoes. Just cut them into quarters, scoop out the seeds, and dice them super fine, almost salsa type, but finer. It seems to eliminate the skin factor, and allows the tomato to break down easier during cooking. Not something I always do, but seems to work ok the couple of times I have tried it.
Re: Tomato sliced whole or sauced on Pizza?
Thanks RT and Waitingtocook, great suggestions. I took RT's advice and removed the seeds from the tomatoes and sliced them thinly.
We made Margaritas with the tomatoes on the dough. Came out fine. The other pizzas with a thin layer of cheese on the base 1st (then more later) came out even better. The sliced tomatoes do get very HOT for some reason and hold the heat causing burnt tongue if not careful. Just shows how delicious the smell was so it's hard to wait for it to cool.
I like your idea of chopping them finely. It would give the fresh tomato taste and spreadability too. Will try that next time. Thanks Dino
Re: Tomato sliced whole or sauced on Pizza?
Re: Tomato sliced whole or sauced on Pizza?
We have been using chopped marinated fresh romas all summer long and everyone just raves about them. We also use DOP San Marzanos, lightly broken up by hand for the purists in our group.
For that marinated tomatoes we chop the tomatoes into a classic dice. We then add fresh chopped garlic, chopped basil, sea salt, black pepper and crushed red pepper. Then we add EVO and 18 year old basalmic vinegar and let marinade for at least one hour.
Just before we are ready to make pizza we drain the marinated tomatoes of all the juices. We save the juice as it becomes a delicious tomato vinegarette with all the juices mixed in.
We then use a shmear of EVO on the crust and then start with the chopped tomatoes and build from there. Everyone we feed this to raves about it.
We have done the exact the same scenaio with thinly sliced tomatoes. The key is to drain away the marinade to eliminate the soggy aspect with excess juice as RT explains above. The above tomatoe vinegarette goes wonderful with spring greens to eat along with the pizza. We just made some for lunch today and the pizza was awesome.
Try it, you'll like it....
Good Luck,
Tom in PA
Re: Tomato sliced whole or sauced on Pizza?
Tom, that's like a great fresh marinara type sauce. I'll definitely try it and the drained vinaigrette sounds like a keeper too ;) Thanks for sharing, Dino

Here's 2 pics of my pizzas with sliced tomatoes from my garden. I did seed them, sliced thin, tossed with fresh grated garlic and let them drain 2 hours in a colander. The pizza are with crumbled Italian sausage that I lightly fried up 1st. The cheese is Johns (jrparks) recommended mix of 2 parts Fontina to 1 parts pecorino and Greek Kasseri cheeses. AMAZING cheese mix :p!
The closer pizza was with 1 month old, frozen dough and the farther is with fresh made the day before. It rose much better, the crust edge taller although taste was similar.
Everyone asks me if/when I'll try Trader Joes pre-made dough or ordinary flour. Someday...but while I'm still in Caputo Heaven, you can't me :D -Dino
Re: Tomato sliced whole or sauced on Pizza?
The pizzas look great. Fresh sliced cherry tomatoes work very well also.
Re: Tomato sliced whole or sauced on Pizza?
I like that cheese mix and I am going to try it this weekend, Thanx
Yes you could use pre-made dough, yes you could use other flour but if you have access to Caputo and have tasted the end results.....why would you!!!
I have been in Caputo heaven for the last 4 years. Am I going to try any of the above....no way Jose'!! You don't fix what ain't broke.......as they say.
Nice pizzas by the way......

Week forty-eight
The last two years have been a series of firsts for Space Girl – from being held by Daddy for the first time to saying her first words.
The firsts that I remember most are:
- First day – first: sight of her, hold, change of nappy and sleepless night while she cried – she struggled to feed and was hungry until we had to use her first bottle.
- First day of calm – first: content sleep accompanied by noisy reassuring breaths, farts, burps and sick.
- First independence – first: time she realised she had feet, roll over, unsupported sit up, crawl, stand, walk and run.
- First fun – first: smile, giggle, laugh, chase and tickle.
- First affection – first: cuddle given out, wave goodbye and wet kiss goodnight – the latter with sound effects.
- First experiences – first: zoom (see earlier post Zooming and Custard), slide and spin at the playground, water fountain, swimming pool, paddling pool, sandpit, paddle in the sea, rock pool, crab, caterpillar, ladybird and stroke of the cat.
- First art – first: scribble, sticker, circle drawn, paint and dance.
- First obsessions – first: custard, In the Night Garden episode, Peppa Pig DVD, The Tiger Who Came To Tea book and game on Daddy's iPhone.
- First sign of growing up – first: sit in her high chair, wash of her hands, use of her potty and stand on her step stool.
- First food preferences – first: olive (without stone), pickle, breadstick, crisp, cheese and pickle sandwich, banana, yoghurt and custard.
- First words – first: "Dad Eee" (Daddy), "Mum-M" (Mummy), "Nanny" (Granny) and "Iggle" (Iggle Piggle from In the Night Garden). And first sentence – first "My Dad Eee" (my daddy).
It is a shame that the firsts lose their excitement when they are seconds and thirds and fourths … but I am sure there are many new firsts to come.
