I was boring and went with the silver one.
Yeah almost bought a 3DS at launch but felt the screens were too small and the unit was not that comfortable to hold for long periods (hard edges). The XL is lovely though. Beautiful screens. Much more comfortable to hold for long play times.

HSBC "lift" by Grey London
Agency: Grey London
Rating: 5.0
By Nick Batten, mediaweek.co.uk, Wednesday, 28 March 2012 12:26PM
As managing director of Initiative, Futures Sport + Entertainment (FS+E), Alavy will continue to report to Sue Moseley, worldwide director of research and futures.
His promotion is recognition of FS+E's growth into new international markets, such as France, China and Brazil. His day-to-day management will be similar to before.
One key element of his role will be to grow the business internationally in 2012.
Alavy has been with Initiative for 10 years, prior to which he worked at MPG and at IBM.
Initiative FS+E measures the performance and value of investments in sport and sponsorship through a tailored tool kit, which provides independent performance data.
The team then uses advanced mathematical techniques to analyse that data to derive unique insights for clients.
Moseley said: "This promotion is testament to Kevin's hard work and dedication to FS+E over the last ten years. He is the perfect candidate to carry FS+E forward into new markets."

Host Missouri State puts up fight early, but Aztecs pull away late
Missouri St.
SPRINGFIELD, Mo. Good thing the Aztecs weren't opposite Wild Bill Hickok in the legendary 1865 shootout in the Springfield town square. You wouldn't like their chances, unless, of course, they kept stats back then for blocks, offensive rebounds and defensive field-goal percentage.
The No. 25 Aztecs still can't shoot straight, spraying bullets into saloon doors and barrels of whiskey. But they're pretty good at everything else, and that was enough for a 60-44 win at Missouri State on Saturday afternoon in the final installment of Mountain West-Missouri Valley Challenge.
The operative word being challenge.
It was at times ugly and impressive. Ugly, because the Aztecs clanked their first 10 3-point attempts and finished 4 of 22, shot 32.2 percent overall and had three technical or flagrant fouls. Impressive, because they still managed to post the largest margin of victory in the history of 4-year-old JQH Arena before 7,272 increasingly agitated fans.
"We didn't make shots like we wanted to today," said Xavier Thames, who had 11 points while shooting 3 of 12, "but our defense is what is going to make us win. If we're not making shots, we have to play defense."
Or as associate head coach Brian Dutcher put it: "If you like defense, this was a good game to watch."
Jamaal Franklin led the Aztecs (2-1) in most statistical categories: 22 points, 12 rebounds, seven turnovers, three blocks, three steals, one technical foul, one flagrant foul. He also was tops in vitriol from the home fans, showered with a chorus of boos every time he touched the ball in the final minutes.
"I can't let the crowd or referees get to me," Franklin said. "I play for my teammates and coaches."
Franklin got a T late in the first half for excessively celebrating after teammate James Rahon made a 3, which is understandable, you'd think, considering the Aztecs had opened the season 5 of 47 behind the arc (and not all of that on the windy deck of an aircraft carrier vs. No. 8 Syracuse). He was assessed a flagrant foul in the second half while blocking Keith Pickens' fast-break layup and sending him into the basket standard.
Pickens was helped to the bench — further elevating the temperature inside JQH Arena — but a Missouri State spokesman said later that the junior forward had leg cramps and was not seriously injured.
"The referees talked to me and said they've been told to err on the side of caution in protecting the airborne shooter," SDSU coach Steve Fisher said. "Jamaal was just trying to block the shot, and I think their players and coaches know that."
Said Missouri State coach Paul Lusk: "I don't have a problem with Franklin. He played hard. He got a double-double. He may be a little bit — I don't know what the word is — emotional, but he got it done."
The Aztecs missed 11 of their first 14 shots and were lucky to trail only 16-10 midway through the first half. Franklin almost single-handedly brought them back, scoring 11 of his team's 14 points during one stretch as it built a 29-20 halftime lead.

Yesterday we reported on Sebastian Faulks retracting remarks criticizing Muhammad and the Koran with an apology which included the following paragraph: While we Judaeo-Christians can take a lot of verbal rough-and-tumble about our human-written scriptures, I know that to Muslims the Koran is different; it is by definition beyond criticism. And if anything I said [Read More...]
Author Sebastian Faulks recently made derogatory remarks about the Koran saying that it lacked an "ethical dimension" and that it did not stack up favorably to the Christian tradition (which is his own): "Jesus, unlike Muhammad, had interesting things to say.

"My kids believe that they can accomplish anything and be anyone," says Altimira Middle School Principal Will Deeths. "At the ages of 11 to 13, they have not closed any door to their future."
Walking the Altimira campus you will see the diversity of the students who gather together to learn. The students come from different cultural and socioeconomic backgrounds, they represent many different ethnicities, they are at different stages in maturity, but they all share one thing in common: They crave positive adult interactions that will help lead them toward achieving their own personal success.
After 10 years of success at Sonoma Valley High School, the Teacher Support Network was asked to launch a pilot program at Altimira Middle School. The program launched using just three classrooms and having six community volunteers, but as modest as it was in scope, the impact on campus was immediately recognizable and positive – the students wanted volunteers in their classrooms. On the first day, the kids were slightly suspicious of why they were there; by our third and fourth visit, the kids were clamoring to be paired with them during math games or break-out reading sessions.
One teacher's experience with a particularly struggling student was so inspiring that she was prompted to email the entire faculty to share the unique transformation of this student due to his interaction with his TSN volunteer. "For the first time this year, he came back to class excited to learn, he asked to read again and he wanted to share the story of 'The Old Man and the Sea' with his class."
The TSN volunteers allow teachers to reach all the students in their classroom, from the high-achieving students to the students who are struggling in all subjects. Having the ability to work in small groups or one-on-one is a powerful, non-threatening, yet challenging tool.

Already been through Yeast Essentials for Brewers or want more in-depth education on yeast? This two-day workshop will explore fermentation control points and how to maintain optimal yeast performance as well as develop desired flavor compounds. This course will also cover off-flavor detection and sensory of different yeast strains, as well as troubleshooting problem fermentations. Two lab sections will be included, covering details on setting up a brewery lab, brewery quality control programs, and general lab techniques to implement these QC programs. (The lab sections are not available for the webinar participants, and thus the cost is lower for the webinar; the cost is $100 lower for both the live workshop and the webinar).
The Yeast Essentials workshops are the most popular classes offered by White Labs as the instructors provide practical tips and help to turn brewers into yeast handling and fermentation experts.
The first three workshops were held in 2012, and four more were held in 2013. In 2014, for the first time, two-day and one-day Yeast Essentials workshops were offered. Entering the third full year of Yeast Essentials classes, White Labs advises folks to enroll early as these classes have sold-out in the past.
A sampling of comments from the Yeast Essentials Workshop in Asheville, N.C., in May 2014:
"The White Labs Yeast Essentials course helped our brewery by providing information on how to improve yeast health, resulting in better fermentations, and most importantly, great and consistent beer."
"Now I know how easy it is to set up a lab at our brewery and how much it will benefit our products and our bottom line."
Andy Cubbin, Southern Appalachian Brewery
"The White Labs girls are a hoot!"
"Informative, technically interactive and fun."
Erik Walp, brewer, Neshaminy Creek Brewing
"The course was informative and practical. Our brewery will implement what we learned in the workshop."
Chip Gaul, RJ Rockers Brewing Company
"The White Labs team has done a magnificent job of combining complex information into a practical, user-friendly lecture. The information presented can be practically utilized in your present brewing operations to improve overall brewery performance."
David Doble, head brewer, Tampa Bay Brewing Company
"Even if you have been brewing a while, the information will still benefit what you do day to day."
"A must for anyone involved in or interested in brewing."
The following applies to most classes, and any differences will be listed above in Event Details.
Participate in-person or via live webinar (live webinar attendees will be able to watch the speaker, hear the speaker, and view the presentation materials, as well as ask questions via the moderator....recordings will not be available).

Chaplin Has Paper in Pillars of Immunology
- Details
- Published on March 25, 2014
The paper, originally published in Science, April 1994, is regarded as a classic in the field. It has been republished with additional commentary included. Papers selected as Pillars of Immunology features give younger immunologists the opportunity to see what research has come before and how it has led to research today. Pillars articles are published in the first issue each month of The Journal of Immunology.
As part of its centennial celebrations, The American Association of Immunologists has made available the collected Pillars of Immunology commentaries in a downloadable format.
Bliss Chang Named 2014 Goldwater Scholar
- Details
- Published on March 21, 2014
Chang, a Biochemistry and Biology major, plans to pursue an M.D./Ph.D. that will allow him to enter academic medicine and teach at a leading medical research university. His work in the Saad lab involves further elucidating the structural basis for Fas-mediated apoptosis and investigating the role of a point mutation in the Fas protein that may reveal the mechanism of inhibition for the Fas pathway.
The Barry Goldwater Scholarship and Excellence in Education Program was established by Congress in 1986 to honor Senator Barry Goldwater, who served his country for 56 years as a soldier and statesman, including 30 years of service in the U.S. Senate. The purpose of the Foundation is to provide a continuing source of highly qualified scientists, mathematicians, and engineers by awarding scholarships to college students who intend to pursue research careers in these fields.
Micro Student Enters SOM Art Show
- Details
- Published on March 14, 2014
Shane Kelly, a graduate student in Dr. David Bedwell's lab, shows the art in his cells with three fluorescent confocal micrographs of cheek cells that he entered in the UAB School of Medicine Art Show. Kelly's works of art are currently on display in the UAB Edge of Chaos.

Welcome Dr. Amy Weinmann
- Details
- Published on March 12, 2014
Currently, she is working on the mechanisms by which lineage-specifying transcription factors regulate cell fate decisions in development. "A major focus of the research in my lab is on the T-box and BTB-ZF transcription factor families, which are required to promote cellular transitions in numerous developmental systems, ranging from early embryogenesis to immune cell fate. We are also interested in defining the mechanisms by which epigenetic patterns are established in a cell-type and activation-state specific manner. Collectively, our mechanistic studies will provide new insight into many human diseases that are associated with dysregulation of these pathways, including a major emphasis on blood cancers, autoimmunity, and birth defects."
During this time of economic challenges, Weinmann takes her job as mentor seriously. She says that it is easy to get discouraged when funding is so limited, but a person must not accept the word can't. "Science is do-able," she says. "Passion comes from within. Nobody can take your passion away from you." She enjoys watching students learn how to drive their own science. "Early on, it's much more hands-on, but eventually it starts to flip and by the end, the student knows way more than I do. It's a proud moment when they're on their own."
In her spare time, Weinmann follows professional sports (especially the Minnesota Vikings), and she herself can spike a mean volleyball, having played volleyball in high school and college. She says, "the mental discipline of sports fits well with science. It's always a work in progress; you should be proud of what you've accomplished, but at the same time strive to do better and learn more."
Welcome Dr. Mengxi Jiang
- Details
- Published on March 12, 2014
In 2012, Jiang became a research investigator at the University of Michigan, where she worked two years on the host-pathogen interactions of a human DNA tumor virus, BK polyomavirus (BKPyV). Now, as assistant professor in the microbiology department at UAB, she continues to search for a better understanding of the BKPyV life cycle to aid in the design of novel, more efficient anti-viral strategies.
"BKPyV infection is ubiquitous in the human population and occurs during early childhood," says Jiang. "Primary infection with BKPyV is followed by dissemination to the kidney and urinary tract, in particular to kidney tubule epithelial cells and urinary tract epithelial cells, where the virus establishes a lifelong persistent infection. This infection remains asymptomatic in immunocompetent individuals, but under conditions of immunosuppression, BKPyV can undergo reactivation resulting in viral shedding in the urine and may eventually lead to severe diseases such as polyomavirus-associated nephropathy (PVAN) in renal transplant patients and hemorrhagic cystitis in bone marrow transplant recipients."
Jiang says that no specific antiviral drugs for BKPyV infection are currently available, although the incidence of BKPyVrelated disease has greatly increased in the last few years. The immune components that are involved in controlling BKV persistence and reactivation are not well defined. As a new assistant professor, Jiang is looking to fill several positions in her lab. She enjoys sharing her excitement for research with students just entering the field. "It is important for students to learn how to do science, to think critically, and to establish their independence," says Jiang.
Kearney named distinguished professor in microbiology
- Details
- Published on February 28, 2014
Kearney's work has brought worldwide recognition to UAB. He is an internationally recognized expert in monoclonal antibodies and their source: immune cells known as B cells that produce the antibodies necessary to fight off infections and other immune threats.
Kearney came to UAB as a postdoctoral fellow in 1974 and joined the microbiology faculty in 1977. In addition to his primary faculty appointment in the microbiology department, Kearney holds several other appointments at UAB including senior scientist in the UAB Comprehensive Cancer Center and UAB Center for Disease Preparedness, as well as a professor in the Division of Developmental and Clinical Immunology.

(Ni80Fe20)1-xMnx alloy thin films were produced by codepositing Ni80Fe20 and Mn and annealed at 300°C-600°C. In spite of the structural stability predicted by the bulk phase diagram and the interdiffusion evidences observed in the magnetic exchange couples, the (Ni80Fe20)1-xMnx alloy films decomposed into Ni80Fe20 and Mn phases when annealed above 400°C. The phase separated structure closely resembles those of magnetic granular alloys with a strong crystallographic texture. The phase-separated alloys exhibit an inverse giant magnetoresistance as high as 0.5%.
