A new development in the fight against cancer: Recent research at the University of Haifa found that molecules found in common fungus Ganoderma lucidum aid in suppressing some of the mechanisms involved in the progression of prostate cancer. The main action of the fungus: disrupting androgen receptor activity and impeding the proliferation of cancerous cells.
Over the past 3-4 decades much scientific research has dealt with the medicinal properties of different fungi. One of the important characteristics of fungi is the ability to fight cancer in a number of ways; however most of the research has been concentrated on how fungi affect the immune system. In this research, conducted by Dr. Ben-Zion Zaidman, under the direction of Prof. Eviatar Nevo and Prof. Solomon Wasser from the Institute of Evolution at the University of Haifa, and Dr. Jamal Mahajna from the Migal Galilee Technology Center, the researchers examined how fungi fight cancer from within cells. "Up to now, research has been based on enhancing the immune system with high-molecular-weight polysaccharides that act through specific receptors in cell membranes. We concentrated our research on low-molecular-weight secondary metabolites that can penetrate the cells and act at the molecular level from within the cell itself," explained Dr. Zaidman.
According to Dr. Zaidman, prostate cancer, one of the most common cancers found among men in the Western World, is controlled by the androgen receptor, especially at the initial stages of development of the disease. Therefore, all of the current medications used to treat prostate cancer work to reduce the production of androgens or to interfere with their function via the androgen receptor.
At the first stage of the research, 201 organic extracts from 68 types of fungi were produced with solvents such as ether, ethyl acetate and ethanol. These solvents are used to select molecules that are small enough to act from within the cells.

I want to make language-specific help files in HTML and view them using the browser.
As first version I put the english version in res/raw (There seems to be no html- or doc-directory).
To start the browser I found:
String URL = "android.resource://" + getPackageName() + "/" + R.raw.help;
Uri u = Uri.parse(URL);
Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, u);
But it always throws an ApplicationNotFound-Exception.
Looking at the variables I can see that URL is:
and that is also the content of u. Uri.parse just copies the given string.
My questions:
What am I doing wrong?
Is there another way?
Would the system find a file in res/raw-de?

If all goes according to plan, a balloon the size of a football field will loft NASA's BETTII mission above 99.5 percent of Earth's atmosphere next year to study star formation.
This mission will use a technique called spatial interferometry to combine observations of smaller telescopes to effect the viewing power of a larger one. BETTII will be NASA's first such mission.
Dr. Stephen Rinehart, associate chief of the Observational Cosmology Laboratory at NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Maryland, has worked with interns on BETTII, short for Balloon Experimental Twin Telescope for Infrared Interferometry, for many years now.
[image-51]For the spring, Joe Gibson and Yamil Huertas are thrilled they are part of this team. "Both of them are doing really well — once again, we've got some great students!" Rinehart said.
Last summer's seven students worked tirelessly to finish parts of BETTII's control system, which will be used to guide BETTII and stabilize it for clearer pictures. "It has been performing very well." Rinehart said. "They did a great job."
Huertas, a senior studying electrical engineering at the University of Puerto Rico, Bayamón Campus, chose BETTII because it let him work on fields related to mechanics, electronics and computers. Huertas worked on two projects this summer. He focused on BETTII's Star Camera, which will tell scientists where BETTII is pointing, and developed a circuit that will read BETTII's temperature sensors.
[image-80]Gibson is a senior at Grand Valley State University in Grand Rapids, Michigan, studying computer engineering. Gibson works with Stephen Maher, a computer scientist at Goddard, writing code for the communication and control software on BETTII. His code will send information from the Star Camera to the control system to map exactly where in the sky BETTII takes its pictures.
"We are a team and all of us work for the greater good and success of the project," Huertas said.
"It is a childhood dream to be working here," Gibson said. "After such an amazing experience, the only thing I can say is that I sincerely hope to return some day."
Gibson and Huertas' amazing experiences, those of the students before them, and students yet to come are what will enable BETTII to reach its 2015 launch date and study stellar evolution like never before.

"My husband and I always have the Rote Grütze at the Kempinski Hotel Atlantic when in Hamburg, Germany," says Mary Futchik of Naples, Florida. "Could you could help us get the recipe?"
Consider this a cross between a spoonable pudding and a fruit soup.
YIELD: Makes 6 servings
ACTIVE TIME: 35 minutes
TOTAL TIME: 2 3/4 hour
Stir together water, syrup, 1 1/4 cups blackberries, 1 cup raspberries, jelly, sugar, and vanilla in a 3-quart saucepan. Simmer, stirring occasionally, until berries are softened, 6 to 8 minutes. Force mixture through a fine sieve into another saucepan. Discard seeds.
Bring berry sauce to a simmer and vigorously whisk in arrowroot mixture. Simmer, whisking constantly, until thick and glossy, about 2 minutes (do not boil). Remove from heat and stir in strawberries and remaining blackberries and raspberries.
Transfer pudding to a serving bowl and cover surface with a piece of wax paper to prevent a skin from forming. Chill until cold, at least 2 hours.

A novel PCR-based method for high throughput prokaryotic expression of antimicrobial peptide genes

BMC Biotechnology 2012, 12:10 doi:10.1186/1472-6750-12-10Published: 23 March 2012
To facilitate the screening of large quantities of new antimicrobial peptides (AMPs), we describe a cost-effective method for high throughput prokaryotic expression of AMPs. EDDIE, an autoproteolytic mutant of the N-terminal autoprotease, Npro, from classical swine fever virus, was selected as a fusion protein partner. The expression system was used for high-level expression of six antimicrobial peptides with different sizes: Bombinin-like peptide 7, Temporin G, hexapeptide, Combi-1, human Histatin 9, and human Histatin 6. These expressed AMPs were purified and evaluated for antimicrobial activity.
Two or four primers were used to synthesize each AMP gene in a single step PCR. Each synthetic gene was then cloned into the pET30a/His-EDDIE-GFP vector via an in vivo recombination strategy. Each AMP was then expressed as an Npro fusion protein in Escherichia coli. The expressed fusion proteins existed as inclusion bodies in the cytoplasm and the expression levels of the six AMPs reached up to 40% of the total cell protein content. On in vitro refolding, the fusion AMPs was released from the C-terminal end of the autoprotease by self-cleavage, leaving AMPs with an authentic N terminus. The released fusion partner was easily purified by Ni-NTA chromatography. All recombinant AMPs displayed expected antimicrobial activity against E. coli, Micrococcus luteus and S. cerevisia.
The method described in this report allows the fast synthesis of genes that are optimized for over-expression in E. coli and for the production of sufficiently large amounts of peptides for functional and structural characterization. The Npro partner system, without the need for chemical or enzymatic removal of the fusion tag, is a low-cost, efficient way of producing AMPs for characterization. The cloning method, combined with bioinformatic analyses from genome and EST sequence data, will also be useful for screening new AMPs. Plasmid pET30a/His-EDDIE-GFP also provides green/white colony selection for high-throughput recombinant AMP cloning.

Sturge-Weber syndrome is a disorder in which an abnormal growth of
blood vessels occurs in certain parts of the body. The abnormal vessel growth
may affect the skin on the face; the brain; or one or both eyes.
When the skin on the face is affected, a large birthmark called a
port-wine stain may result. When Sturge-Weber syndrome affects the brain,
seizures may develop during infancy that can interfere with normal development.
Abnormal growth of blood vessels in one or both eyes often leads to increased
pressure inside the eye and glaucoma.
Treatment with antiepileptic drugs can sometimes reduce seizures.
For some children with the condition, a type of brain surgery called
hemispherectomy may also help control seizures.

Toronto's mayor, as is often noted, is only one vote, which means that who he has around him matters

Justin Trudeau is Canada's most famous front-runner at the moment. As recent experience demonstrates, he'll have a daunting task ahead of him
We know far too much, and not nearly enough, about Jian Ghomeshi. And Toronto has a non-lunatic mayor. Feel free to applaud.
Instead of the ring around the core, it's Ford at the edges, with Olivia Chow taking the downtown core, and John Tory running up the centre
In his victory address John Tory emphasized the one element that could be key to pulling off some of his pledges: his determination to work with council rather than against it, a concept the Fords never grasped.
Originally Chow sounded centrist, but later veered left, vowing to open childcare spaces, increase affordable housing and create jobs for youth. The tactic flopped
Thank you, thank you so much. Look at this… [point around the room] what a great Toronto crowd! And what a great night this is for our city.

Paper helped city, county lay claim to money
On July 5, 1987, The Gleaner broke a story showing that local governments had for years overlooked collecting many thousands of dollars they had been entitled to.
It wasn't tax revenue they were missing out on. Instead, it was money that local industries had been required to pay because they used industrial revenue bonds to finance major improvements, otherwise known as payments in lieu of taxes, which I'll shorten to PILOT for the sake of brevity.
Industries that wanted to expand back then would go to the Henderson City Commission or Henderson Fiscal Court and ask them to issue the bonds. Because the bonds were not taxed by the federal government, the industry was able to gain a significantly more favorable interest rate.
Also, because the local government took title while the bonds were being paid off, the property was immune from property taxes during that period. But the bond issue agreements The Gleaner discovered required the industries to make PILOTs.
Each agreement differed. Some required payments to be made only to county government, although those issued by the city required payments to the city, the county and the Henderson County School District. Some city bond issues also required payments to the library and health districts.
Local officials expressed dismay when the problem came to light. "It was an issue that should have been addressed when the bonds were finalized," said City Manager Russell Sights. "Obviously, the framework was not put into place for the payments to be automatic."
The five local industries affected noted they had never received a bill. They were Gibbs Die Casting Aluminum Corp., PB&S Chemical Co., Cresline Plastic Pipe Co., Artfaire, and International Tables.
PB&S Chemical quickly came to terms with the county, but its situation was much less complicated than the other firms. It had been required to start making payments only the previous year. The July 15, 1987, issue of The Gleaner noted the firm had agreed to pay $28,826 for 1986, with all local taxing authorities getting a piece of that. The Henderson County School District got the biggest piece of pie at $19,645. Similar payments were to be made each year after that.
Attorneys for the city, county and school district began coordinating their efforts to collect money from the other industries, with the city carrying the bulk of the load.
The Jan. 24, 1988, issue of The Gleaner noted that the city had reached a compromise with Gibbs Die Casting, which paid $20,000 to catch up on the period between 1979 and 1987. The company would continue to pay the city between $4,000 and $5,000 annually through the life of its bond issue.
The following week, on Jan. 31, The Gleaner carried a story noting that the past due amounts owed by the other three firms totaled nearly $200,000. The city sent out bills of $66,548 to Artfaire, $30,973 to International Tables and $25,117 to Cresline. Using the same valuations, amounts due other taxing entities would be $62,704 to the school district, $24,629 to the county, while the library and the health district would each get about $5,400.
Those firms weren't all that anxious to shell out the money, though, City Attorney Randall Redding noted in an April 3, 1988, article. "You're talking about bonding agreements of thousands of pages," he said. "And before I paid that kind of money, I'd read every page."
The parent company of International Tables agreed to settle for $44,000 paid over four years, according to The Gleaner of Jan. 1, 1989, and agreed to make annual payments of about $7,000. The city was the main beneficiary, getting $27,000 in back payments and annual payments of about $4,600.
The same story noted that Cresline had been found to owe much less than originally thought. Furthermore, what little money owed had been in essence already paid because the firm had overpaid taxes in a previous year.
The city continued negotiations with the final company, Artfaire, which Redding said in a March 15 story had "a very technical legal question that may have exempted it from the majority of their payments in lieu of taxes." Essentially, the firm argued that its payments should be based on the value of its lease from the city, rather than the actual value of the property.
The final chapter of the saga came in the fall of 1990 when The Gleaner reported on Oct. 7 that an agreement had been reached with Artfaire under which it would pay about $11,000 — about one-tenth of the amount originally sought. However, the firm agreed to pay $342,805 for its plant site on Eighth Street, which partially compensated the city for unpaid PILOTs.
By the time the dust settled local governments were more than $550,000 richer because they were able to collect that overlooked revenue source.

The hip of Robert McBride, 5, was broken when he was struck by an automobile driven by Mayor W.I. Thompson, The Gleaner reported July 9, 1912. "The little fellow ran into me on account of being frightened," the mayor said. "I did not run into him."
75 years ago
Frank Wallace, who had been the husband of Mae West since 1911 but she had only recently admitted it, was in Henderson but was in seclusion, the Henderson Evening Journal reported July 8 and 9, 1937.
"All other news paled into insignificance the past week when news flashed round the world that Mae West's husband was sojourning in Henderson," the Journal editorialized on July 11. West was the top-earning actress of the mid-1930s.
Wallace was the dance partner of Trixie LeMae, who grew up here under the name Marie Carey and later ran a nightclub here for many years.
50 years ago
Henderson Fiscal Court agreed to appropriate $2,000 to pay for fire protection from the Henderson Fire Department, despite the fact the agreement between the two governments had lapsed, according to The Gleaner of July 10, 1962. A new agreement was authorized later, according to the July 17 edition.

Southaven aldermen table discussion on park upgrades
If Southaven's Snowden Grove is the shining jewel of the city's park system, Greenbrook is its less luminous little sister.
But city officials want to change that by making improvements to the softball complex on Stowewood, between Greenbrook Parkway and Swinnea Road.
Aldermen recently approved getting bids for handicapped-accessible ramps at the facility.
The money to pay for the upgrade will come from the city's 1-cent "A Penny for Your Parks" tourism tax.
Last week, when officials were asked to approve $19,000 for design plans for a cooking/grilling pavilion, a gift shop and a cash control room at Greenbrook, officials
didn't see eye to eye on spending more of the tourism tax money.
"My heart is with parks. I have a 10-year-old and a 3-year-old, and I am not saying we are not going to spend it on parks," Alderman Raymond Flores said about the tourism tax funding. "I just think it is financially irresponsible to use the expenditures before we know which way the Legislature is going to go with the repealer."
Flores was referring to the repealer, or provision to end, the 1 percent tourism tax in the legislation that authorized it. The tax was approved by referendum in 2010 and then, to satisfy state legislators, residents were asked to vote on the issue again in 2011.
The repealer would cause the tax to expire in July unless lawmakers vote to extend it. A vote on the repealer could come up next month or in April in the state Legislature.
"If we find in three months that the Legislature is going to take away our tax, then this board needs to re-prioritize the capital improvements for our park improvements," Flores said.
Mayor Darren Musselwhite said spending the tourism tax money that has already been collected and budgeted for the Greenbrook improvementswould
show legislators that the city has spent the money on what it was approved for — park improvements.
"This is money we have already received, and they (legislators) expected us to have spent this money," Musselwhite said. "So if we start, for lack of a better term, "rat-holing" the
money until we know what the future says, I think it looks to them as though we are not using this money for parks. I think it will be a negative impact on the way our situation is viewed by legislators."
The city began collecting the tourism tax, which increased the sales tax on restaurant bills to 10 percent, in 2012.
Last year, the city collected $755,890.93 in revenue from the tax. For this year, the tax has already generated $345,989.46.
The total budget for Penny for Parks improvements to city parks this year is $760,000 with approximately $250,000 to $300,000 proposed to be spent at Greenbrook.
Greenbrook Park has eight softball fields and was coed until Snowden Grove, the largest city park, opened its multi-field baseball complex. Musselwhite said the proposed improvements at Greenbrook would help put the park on equal footing with Snowden Grove.
Snowden Grove was built in 1999 on 100 acres with 17 baseball fields. It has grown into a mecca for youth sports tournaments, annually hosting about 2,000 teams from across the country.
"Obviously there are some people in our city that look at Snowden Grove Park and then they look at Greenbrook Park and they feel like there is not equality among our boys and girls operations," Musselwhite said. "So I think this is a quality step in the right direction to show we do want equality. "
The board easily agreed on equality for its parks but could not reach a consensus on using the tourism tax right now to pay for the Greenbrook upgrades.
The board voted to table the matter until its Feb. 18 meeting.

I have several cameras with a fresnel in between the lens and the GG and there is absolutely no issue with their focus.
That's because the backs were designed that way to accomadate the fresnel. Take it out and the screen would be out of register in many cases.

This book presents models and algorithms for complex scheduling problems. Besides resource-constrained project scheduling problems with applications also job-shop problems with flexible machines, transportation or limited buffers are discussed. Discrete optimization methods like linear and integer programming, constraint propagation techniques, shortest path and network flow algorithms, branch-and-bound methods, local search and genetic algorithms, and dynamic programming are presented. They are used in exact or heuristic procedures to solve the introduced complex scheduling problems. Furthermore, methods for calculating lower bounds are described. Most algorithms are formulated in detail and illustrated with examples.

One of the most controversial and acclaimed novels ever written, The Satanic Verses is Salman Rushdie's best-known and most galvanizing book. Set in a modern world filled with both mayhem and miracles, the story begins with a bang: the terrorist bombing of a London-bound jet in midflight. Two Indian actors of opposing sensibilities fall to earth, transformed into living symbols of what is angelic and evil. This is just the initial act in a magnificent odyssey that seamlessly merges the actual with the imagined. A book whose importance is eclipsed only by its quality, The Satanic Verses is a key work of our times.
Salman Rushdie is the author of eleven previous novels—Grimus, Midnight's Children (for which he won the Booker Prize and the Best of the Booker), Shame, The Satanic Verses, Haroun and the Sea of Stories, The Moor's Last Sigh, The Ground… More about Salman Rushdie

The manufacturer, as set in the BIOS of my VM, is "VMWare". I want to change that to other string. How to do that?
Take the 2-minute tour ×
Super User is a question and answer site for computer enthusiasts and power users. It's 100% free, no registration required.
See Virtual Machine and OEM license for Windows for the only way I could find of modifying the manufacturer.
According to it, if your computer is known to VMware, then by adding to the virtual machine's configuration file (vmx) the option:
then the Manufacturer and Product Name strings in the virtual machine become the same as the Manufacturer and Product Name of the host system. This requires the destination host to have the same hardware as the guest.
This is as far as I will go, as modding the VMware BIOS is somewhat on the edge of legality. If you wish to go this way, this is a start.

why don't you back it up... you post all sorts of statements with no pic's, links, etc to back it up.
I've even offered to send a camera for free and help with learning process.
pic's or it didn't happen...
To leave zero doubt that you understand manometers? None of the tools you showed are manometers. A manometer has at least two tubes. Even the Uni-syn doesn't compare pressures in real time like most would define a manometer. I try to back up my claims by making sense. Something a LOT of documentors and linkers need to focus on a lot more IMO. Maybe an explanation of how measuring one pressure at a time is still considered a manometer versus comparing pressures in real time like every manometer I have ever seen referred to as a manometer? Is that the difference between a barometer and a manometer? Links? Documentation? That's google talk. There's no need for it when you make sense. Tons of googlers use photos, links and documents to NOT make sense so I would think that would reduce your need for them? It sure does reduce my need to see any. I could care less.

Hi! So I EBF and pump once in awhile to keep a stash in the freezer. Now that LO is sleeping longer at night I have started pumping each evening to prevent getting engorged by morning. I feed LO around 7pm and then pump a bottle around 10pm, LO wakes up around 1-2am for feeding,etc. Last week I was getting 5-6 oz each night doing this and it seemed to work perfectly. I had what I believe was mastitis or a badly clogged duct over the weekend and limited the pumping and allowed LO to eat more frequently to help it heal. That is all cleared up now. However, last night and tonight when I pump I am getting 1-2 oz only. I know that my supply didn't suddenly dry up as LO is getting everything he needs, as I pump I feel the let downs come but the milk isn't pouring out like it normally does, and when I finish my boobs still feel rather full. So my problem is that I know the milk is in there..but suddenly my pump doesn't seem to be able to get it out. I have the Ameda Purely Yours. Any advice would be really helpful! Thanks in advance!
Pumping Question
Comments (5)
Posted 02/07/2013
I have the same pump. The only thing i can think of maybe the suction dial got turned of the tubing isnt in all the way? Do u have a manual pump and if so r u getting the same results? If its none of those things then drink more water or drink the mothers milk tea. Heard that tea helps with supply issues.
Posted 02/07/2013
I have a medela but the same thing happened to me, and there was a tiny wear tear in the pump membrane. I got new membranes at walmart and the problem was fixed, try that! Also you could try hand expression.
Posted 02/07/2013
That happened to me. In also have the same pump as you.. I called customer service and they said its the valve those little white things that attach to the flange. I had extra ones from the hospital So I switched them and it worked there's actually suction going on now
Posted 02/07/2013
I just turn mine up a speed which helps a lot. not as comfortable but tolerable.

text: No recent wiki edits to this page. Torcher was a demon that resided in hell. An agent of Neron, Torcher and his ilk were sent to Earth during the Days of Judgment to plague the people of Happy Harbor. Each demon sent would invisibly sit on people's shoulders, whispering doubts and hatred into their ears, causing the inhanitants of Happy Harbor to become moody and eventually violent. Torcher's subject was former Justice League mascot Snapper Carr. Snapper, though, realized something was going on, and used magic from one of Felix Faust's books to cause the demons to become visible. With the demons now visible, the townsfolk were in a panic until Snapper came up with a plan. He enticed Torcher to give up Neron and join Snapper over some delicious cheesecake. Never having had cheesecake before, Torcher fell in love with the food. Torcher switched sides, and used his fire breath to destroy the other demons. Snapper invited Torcher to stay in Happy Harbor, and began to live at the Mad Yak Café. Through Snapper, Torcher met the third Hourman, and became part of Hourman'e entourage. Torcher accompanied the group on a tour through the timestream. With the death of the third Hourman, it is presumed that Torcher remains at the Mad Yak Café.

A witch flies on the side of this city's police cruisers, swoops past the local paper's masthead and leads Salem High into battle as its mascot. This is undeniably the "Witch City," even if not all residents are comfortable about renown rooted in the evil of the Salem witch trials of 1692.
But some wonder if it's time for Salem to expand its reputation beyond witch hysteria, and the kitschy spook industry that's grown up around it.
Now, tourism leaders have hired a marketing consultant, the first step in a campaign to retool the city's image by focusing on its significant, but lesser-known, cultural assets.
Salem has the House of Seven Gables — made famous by the Nathaniel Hawthorne novel of the same name — along with abundant Federal-period architecture and an engaging seaport past. It also has momentum from a $125 million renovation of the Peabody Essex Museum that has turned it into a major draw.
No Whitewash for Witch
No one wants to whitewash the witch, says the consultant, Mark Minelli of Boston, but efforts must be made to attract a different kind of tourist — one who will stay longer, spend more money and make tourism less dependent on the annual flood of Halloween visitors.
"You can't expand upon it," Minelli said. "It doesn't have another dimension. If you don't say anything about the witch for the next 100 years, it would still be there. It's the 500-pound gorilla in the middle of the room that you don't need to talk about."
Christian Day, a practicing witch and host of Salem's Halloween-time "Festival of the Dead," said de-emphasizing Salem's spooky side is as good as trying to kill it. It's an attempt to change Salem's image by those ashamed of history and snobbish about Halloween tourists that he's heard described as "T-shirt-wearing zeros."
"A lot of people don't want Salem associated with a negative blot on history, even if it draws people by the thousands," Day said.
Salem attracts about 800,000 people annually, according to counts at its visitor center, and at least another 200,000 who never check in there, said Carol Thistle of Destination Salem, which promotes local tourism. About a fourth of those tourists come around Halloween, but the problem is in what happens after Oct. 31, said Mark Meche of Salem's Main Streets initiative, which promotes downtown businesses.
A Ghost Town After Halloween
Monthly tourist visits generally don't reach six figures again until midsummer. In the meantime, some fright purveyors make so much money in October that their attractions are all but abandoned until the next fall — not ideal for any business district.
"That is the worst aspect of this whole thing," said Meche, a local architect. "It's so acutely seasonal … Part of our mission is to extend the shopping season."
A key to expansion plans was the renovation of the Peabody Essex Museum, which featured the piece-by-piece transplantation of a home from rural China to Salem. Museum spokesman Greg Liakos said attendance has tripled, from 65,000 to about 200,000, in the six months since the museum's June re-opening, compared to previous years.

When the doors of the Detroit Auto Show open to the public tomorrow, there's no doubt that the Chevy, BMW and Lexus booths will attract plenty of foot traffic with flashy sports cars. But when it comes to relevance as it relates to sales volume and in-market shoppers, the 2015 Chrysler 200 could end up being one of the more important introductions from the show. Positioned in the highly competitive midsize sedan segment, Chrysler has quite the challenge ahead of it, so we asked Andy Love, product chief of the 200, to give us a closer look at the new sedan to see how it will stack up against cars like the Toyota Camry, Ford Fusion and Honda Accord.
All of the pertinent information about the new 200 was revealed during the on-stage introduction, but Love gave us a first-hand look at the sedan's more intricate details. This includes some of the exterior design elements such as the wide use of LED exterior lighting and the strategic placement of the side marker lights, and even interior cues like electronic shifter, which allowed for extra storage space in the center console. Aside from the name, the 2015 200 started from scratch riding on a similar platform as the Dodge Dart and Jeep Cherokee, based on the Alfa Romeo Giulietta.
Scroll down to watch Love talk us through the 2015 Chrysler 200, and you can find more information about it at our original post from earlier in the week.

Duilhac-sous-Peyrepertuse : Michelin's recommendations
This Corbières village makes a good starting point for a tour of the Cathar castles, in particular the "Five Sons of Carcassonne" and countless high-perched feudal fortresses. On the northern outskirts of the village is a spring which feeds the public fountain (and produces a surprising volume of water for the region).

Does anyone know if the HiPerfTimer or the StopWatch class is better for benchmarking, and why?
Take the 2-minute tour ×
Stack Overflow is a question and answer site for professional and enthusiast programmers. It's 100% free, no registration required.
Stopwatch is based on High resolution timer (where available), you can check that with IsHighResolution
They are the same when it comes to high resolution timing.
Both use this:
and this:
to do the underlying timing. (You can verify this with Reflector.NET). I'd use StopWatch because it's part of the framework already (no need to link another dll) and it had better features than HiPerfTimer.
StopWatch- it also works on systems that don't support a high resolution performance counter and you don't need any external libraries to use it.
The other one throws an Win32Exception if there is no support for a high resolution counter.

Michael Wolffsohn
|This article includes a list of references, but its sources remain unclear because it has insufficient inline citations. (February 2013)
Michael Wolffsohn (born 17 May 1947) is a German historian. Wolffsohn was born in Tel Aviv, in what was then the British Mandate of Palestine and today is Israel. His parents were German Jews who fled in 1939.
In 1954, the Wolffsohns moved to Germany, settling in West Berlin. In 1966, Wolffsohn began his studies at the Free University of Berlin, obtaining a PhD in History in 1975. From 1967 to 1970, Wolffsohn served in the Israeli Defence Forces. From 1975 until 1980, Wolffsohn taught at the University of the Saarland. Since 1981, Wolffsohn has served as a professor at the Bundeswehr University Munich as a professor in Contemporary History. His major interests are Israeli history, international relations, and German Jewish history.
Wolffsohn has argued in favor of German patriotism and has claimed that the crimes of National Socialism represent no reason why modern Germans cannot be proud of their country. In his book Eternal Guilt? (1993), he argued against the idea of Germans having to bear guilt for the Holocaust for all time.
Wolffsohn has strongly supported Israel and has argued for greater Western understanding and support of the Jewish state in face of what Wolffsohn regards as fanatical Islamic extremism. Likewise, Wolffsohn has supported the War on Terror and the administration of George W. Bush. In May 2005, he was a leading critic of the chairman of the Social Democratic Party of Germany, Franz Müntefering, who compared a group of American capitalists attempting to purchase a German company to a "plague of locusts". Wolffsohn noted that the capitalists in question were Jewish, and that the Nazis had often compared Jews to locusts, and labeled Müntefering an anti-Semite. Wolffsohn wrote that as a grandson of Holocaust survivors, he was grateful to the Americans for liberating his grandparents and that as a German Jew, he felt deep shame over increasing German anti-Americanism. More recently, Wolffsohn has been a leading critic of the novelist Günter Grass over his disclosure about his membership in the Waffen-SS during World War II.
Comment about Greek Elections of 2015[edit]
On 16 February 2015 he upset Greek people by publishing his provocative opinion that Greeks behaved like idiots by electing Alexis Tsipras for prime minister on 25 January 2015 elections.[1]

How to fix 2D slowness in KDE 4.x
The following seems to have fix many problems of slow 2D in KDE 4.x ( at lest without opengl enabled, I don't use Nvidia's opengl in their driver):
This was suggested by mick232 in this post http://www.nvnews.net/vbulletin/show...2&postcount=22
Type in a console "nvidia-settings -a PixmapCache=1"
That controls whether pixmaps are allocated in a cache.
Then type in a console "nvidia-settings -a PixmapCacheRoundSizeKB=(some size in KB for how large you want the pixmap cache to be, e.g. 16000)"
That controls the number of kilobytes to add to the pixmap cache when there is not enough room.
Also mick232 suggests:
If you want to get a list of all your card settings type the following ion a console:
nvidia-settings -e all
Re: How to fix 2D slowness in KDE 4.x
I should have stated that this fixed my 2D problems in KDE4 with Desktop Effects OFF, but you clarified this. The fix works with drivers 195.36 and 256.35 (possibly others as well).

NYSE Euronext manages the listing and trading of different types of structured products on NYSE Euronext's U.S. markets, through its Exchange Traded Products group and through its Capital Markets group.

The corporate structured products typically trade side-by-side with their public company listing on the New York Stock Exchange for effective pricing in the market. The NYSE has over 400 hybrid securities listed with a total value of $200 billion. In 2009 to date, NYSE Euronext's has listed 7 corporate structured products with an aggregate value of $2.1 billion on its U.S. exchange for corporate Structured Products, the NYSE.
"The NYSE's Capital Markets Group is appreciative of the award and the recognition of our dedication to issuers, advisors, and investors," said Scott Cutler, Executive Vice President, Global Corporate Client Group. "Last year, we rolled out the "Next Generation" market model, utilizing a combination of market professionals and technology to provide customers with the highest levels of market quality and competitiveness. We are proud that a majority share of corporate Structured Products order flow is executed on the NYSE trading floor, where market quality is aided by Designated Market Makers."
