In the end, though, it usually comes down to an irresistible urge to combine a love of feet with a love of horsepower, says Block.
In the race to the future, horsepower was losing to gas power, and the city was changing.
They used a 30 horsepower refrigeration unit to keep the wall frozen and spent about $15 a day to power it.
A unit of power equal to about 746 watts.
Note: The horsepower is used to measure the power of engines.
Note: This term was coined by James Watt, who invented a new type of steam engine in the eighteenth century. Watt found that the horse could do a certain amount of work per second; when he sold his steam engines, this measurement allowed him to estimate the worth of an engine in terms of the number of horses it would replace. Therefore, a six-horsepower engine was capable of replacing six horses.

Ancient Rome made major contributions in the areas of architecture, government, and medicine among others. The Ancient Roman culture was one of the most influential empires of its time. Many of their contributions can be seen in the world in modern times.
Roman architecture was quite modern for its time. The creation of aqueducts allowed water to be transported into the city for bathing and cooking and were so well built that some were still in use in the year 2000. The Romans were also among the first to build with concrete, creating buildings that stood the test of time. Arches were refined during the Ancient Roman period to support more and more weight when used to build large structures, a concept that is still employed for bridges and other structures.
Ancient Roman government was the model for many democratic countries around the world. They used a representation method in which Roman senators represented larger groups of people. The senators conducted the business of running the country alongside the emperor. At the time, only patricians from the upper levels of society could be senators. An early system of checks and balances was designed to prevent one person from gaining too much power.
The Ancient Romans established the first dedicated military medical corps to aid its soldiers on the battlefield. They invented many surgical tools and were among the first to use tourniquets to stop blood loss.
Architecture (arch, dome) Language (Latin) Sports. Religion. Government.
Can anybody just give me any of ancient Rome's contributions to mankind, basically what did they contribute to mankind in the world today. The Romans made many architectural contributions

Quinnipiac University
Hello, everyone. My name is Christine and I am currently a Senior in college. I attend Quinnipiac University in Hamden, CT and I am majoring in Communications/Media Studies with double minors in International Business and Sociology. During the summers, I take classes at Quinsigamond Community College in Worcester, MA in order to obtain either a certificate or Associate's Degree. I currently have a 3.75 GPA, and have been on the Dean's list since the fall semester of my freshman year.
In high school, on a 5.0 GPA system, I graduated with a 4.2 in the top 10% of my class, as a member of the National Honor Society. I was part of the school newspaper, and acted as a contributing writer for three years, secretary for two, and Editor in Chief my senior year. I was also the editor of the literary magazine my senior year as well. In college I was secretary of the anime club this past year, but hope to join a sorority this upcoming fall. I have also contributed to both the college newspaper and the literary magazine in the past two years as well.
While I could help with basic skills in sciences, math, Korean, my forte is English and writing, and I would very much be willing to help a student in need! I have tutored before, for my friends, so it was free of charge. I would like to begin tutoring as a side-job, as it is something I enjoy. My specialties include proofreading, grammar, and sentence structure. I am also proficient at writing essays and helping students craft a well-written analytical essay based off of readings.

Approved subjects are in bold.
In most cases, tutors gain approval in a subject by passing a proficiency exam. For some subject areas, like music and art, tutors submit written requests to demonstrate their proficiency to potential students. If a tutor is interested but not yet approved in a subject, the subject will appear in non-bold font. Tutors need to be approved in a subject prior to beginning lessons.
I have run a Mac OS for the past two and a half years, since December 2009. I am aware how to preform many tasks with the laptop, including how to turn the computer on and off, run Finder, use the search feature, as well as Pages, Numbers, and Keynote which are the Mac versions of Microsoft Office. I am familiar with Mac software Photobooth, and iMovie as well as having basic knowledge in garage band. I have advanced knowledge in iTunes, as well as safari and can inform others of other software to run on a Mac. Considering how different Macs are to Windows, I would be able to help familiarize anyone with the new OS, and help become familiar with the dock.
Sociology is the study of humans in the society we live in and have lived in in past years. The study of behavior, social interactions, class, gender, socioeconomic standing, religion, race/ethnicity and other factors are all taken into account when studying humans in their environment--how they act in certain environments and towards certain people.
Personally I have taken two sociology courses in college, will be taking my third this fall, and it is one of my two minors.

Beaumont/Port Arthur
It has taken the better part of my 70 years to finally come to terms with the events that have shifted my life's course as it has been run. Please do not feel sorry for me. I have had a wonderful life thus far; I am surrounded by loving family that keep me hopping, and have a life filled with work, play and fun. I have so many friends across this country, many from years of writing their stories, and I have a great number of plans that I have not yet fulfilled. I believe my dad would have wanted it that way, from all I have learned.

Q. Someone is walking their dog on my yard and not cleaning up. Is it legal for me to set up a video camera to take a video and catch the person?
A. As far as the law is concerned, you generally have the right to photograph or video anything done in public. Basically, if you can see it from the front of your house, you can video it. If you visit YouTube, you will see you are not alone when it comes to catching negligent dog walkers.

These networks are formed using various processes including weaving, knitting, crocheting, knotting or bonding. The applications of textiles are endless and as such their pervasive nature places them as a key component of material culture. Textiles encompass aspects of design, art, craft and technology indicating that textile practitioners, in this context those who design and make textiles, possess 'both a personal and collective tacit understanding of a specific blend of knowledge' (Igoe 2010). Until recently this knowledge or way of thinking - 'textile thinking' - has remained largely unarticulated. However such thinking has the capacity to originate new materials and material systems, as well as to express and enhance the potential sensory pleasure of existing materials (Igoe 2012; Spuybroek 2005). The unique intelligence of textile thinking and the material culture it informs is often overlooked due to the tacit nature of the knowledge involved, which is often stored in the hands of the practitioner or embodied in the resulting textile artifacts. In this paper we explore the nature of 'textile thinking', its origins in traditional craft approaches, the knowledge it generates and its potential for application within the context of sustainable materials design through presenting the development of a project called 'Textile Thinking for Sustainable Materials' (TTSM). The project brings together textile designers, product designers, materials scientists, chemists and engineers to establish creative dialogues, with particular focus on an interactive networking event that was held at Loughborough University in May 2012. The project aims to: establish a number of creative dialogues which explore the development of new sustainable materials for design-led functions, alternative use of materials technologies towards design, and new applications of existing sustainable materials within design contexts; to capture and present emerging dialogues and concepts to create platforms for new research pathways; and to assess the application of 'textile thinking' within sustainable materials design as a means of advancing knowledge within this field. By working with textile practitioners the project draws on the pervasive nature of textiles to consider the possibilities of materials from: process perspectives, drawing on traditional textile production methods including weaving, knitting, printing and embroidery; aesthetic perspectives, drawing on decorative traditions; and functional perspectives, drawing on perceptions of use. Description: This conference paper was presented at Making Futures 2013 and was subsequently published in volume 3 of the journal, Making Futures [© Plymouth College of Art]. 2013-01-01T00:00:00Z

More than 2,000 acres of ecological reserve and jungle surround this magical resort along 16 km (10 mi) of private coast. The architecture fuses Mediterranean-style elements with local building materials; world-renowned Ricardo Legorreta was one of the architects. Many villas have an outdoor living room. All have dark-wood floors; king-size beds; wet bars; ample bathrooms; and patios with plunge pools, hammocks, and chaise longues. Sofas are upholstered in rich textured fabrics. At night the staff lights hundreds of candles around the villas to create a truly enchanting setting. The golf course is excellent.

The Phoenix Coyotes unloaded three veteran players from their roster for a minor leaguer and two draft picks at the trade deadline. On the surface, it looks like a team giving up on the season. The Coyotes insist the three deals were necessary moves for a team that's under the financial restraints of being run by the league for the fourth straight season. Phoenix is just two points out of the final Western Conference playoff spot with 12 games left and trading Raffi Torres, Steve Sullivan and Matthew Lombardi was more about the future than the rest of this season. ''This is not surrendering the white flag,'' Coyotes assistant general manager Brad Treliving said on Wednesday. ''This is doing what we have to do from a management level to maximize the assets we need to maximize and give opportunities to people we think deserve opportunities.'' Torres, a gritty forward who played two seasons with Phoenix, was traded to San Jose for a third-round draft pick in this year's NHL draft....

My source RPM won't build right! Details Inside.
I downloaded the .src.rpm file for build 3123 of the nvidia drivers for my Ti4200. The rpm --build command worked fine, however when I tried to run the rpm -ivh /usr/src/rpm/RPMS/i386/NVIDIA_kernel-1.0-3123.i386.rpm file, I get the following message:
error: failed dependencies:
I know the sh command works because I used it to upgrade my xwindows just earlier, and have used the NVchooser.sh program as well!
This all occured after the make install command from the .tar.gz failed as well. I feel like I'm almost there but something is just a little bit off!! any help would be greatly appreciated!
(When I try to do it with the .tar.gz files, I get unresolved symbol errors and it does not complete.)
I have no tried with a 2.2 kernel...
I supose you have an old Redhat, 6.2
Try rpm -ihv /usr/src/redhat/RPMS/i386/NV* --nodeps
and if this fails
rpm -ihv /usr/src/redhat/RPMS/i386/NV* --nodeps --force
This omit all depenciencies and checks.
When I compiled Nvidia's Tar.gz, I needed having my kernel configured( I ever compile and install my custom kernel )
but now, I am using Redhat Limbo, beta 3 ( null) and is up2date in all packages
Also, I have made a simply guide to install in Limbo beta3.
Only post the packages I needed with a default desktop install
Redhat Null
But I think your problems are from an old "rpm" package
Redhat updated rpm to 4.0.1(rpm-build-4.1-0.81.i386.rpm)
also, rpm's database is different too
Possibly the kernel
I may need to reconfigure the kernel and recompile, I can see that now. I am using Slackware 8.0, so it's not really that out of date, and the RPM i am using is current as well. I will try to configure kernel at home after work today as one option. Does anybody else have any ideas?
force it
If you verify that you meet all the requirements you can force the install:
rpm -ivh --force --nodeps packagename
also it seems to not find /bin/sh. this should be a symlink to your running shell. Do ls -l /bin/sh to see if it's there. If not, find your shell:
env | grep SHELL
This should return SHELL=/bin/bash or something like that then:
ln -s /bin/bash /bin/sh
Would be strange if /bin/sh is not already there though.
Well I ended up recompiling the kernel, and went to 2.4.5 however the make modules_install didn't work and gave me a whole bunch of depmod errors regarding unresolved symbols in /lib/modules/pcmcia/filename.o.gz, about 4 or 5 of them! I have not tried using the --force --nodep for the rpm package, however when I try to run the .tar.gz files and do a make install, it gives me the same unresolved symbol errors and will not complete the make install! Any ideas on how to resolve those? I appreciate everybody's help with this, I am just very frustrated with my first install of linux right now. So far NOTHING has worked yet! i havn't been able to compile ANYTHING and can't even get xwindows to start right without this driver!

PORTLAND - Portland police released a description of a suspect Thursday in the weekend shootings of two teenage girls who are being mourned in vigils this week across the country.
An eyewitness described the suspect as a white male in his 20s with dark hair standing 5 feet 8 inches tall and weighing about 140 pounds.
Mollie Judith Olgin, 19, of Ingleside, died at the scene Saturday at Violet Andrews Park, and Mary Kristene Chapa, 18, of Sinton, was taken to a hospital in critical condition. She was listed as stable this week.
Speculation has risen that the couple were shot in a hate crime, but Portland Police Chief Randy Wright has said there is no evidence the shootings had anything to do with the teens' sexual orientation.
Several vigils are being held nationwide in honor of Olgin and Chapa, while the Corpus Christi chapter of Get Equal Texas gathered Thursday night at McCaughan Park.
"It's a tragedy that this has happened, and I think a lot of people are scared and shocked because there are so many unknown factors," said Koby Ozias, a Del Mar College student who organized the event which brought out about 30 people.
Ozias has several friends who know Olgin and Chapa, and thought the event might be of comfort to many. It doesn't matter why the girls were shot, Ozias said; what matters is that two young girls with bright futures were affected.
Jovan Gonzalez cried as she read a message from Jennifer Garibay, a friend of Olgin's. Garibay said that during their last lunch together, Olgin told her she was beautiful. She described Olgin as a girl who loved to laugh and let people know how important they are.
"Life isn't going to stop here, and life definitely isn't fair," wrote Garibay, but she said Olgin would want her friends and family to move on with their lives. "Mollie would want us to laugh uncontrollably."
Carolyn Moon, who said she attended the event in support of her friends in the lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender organization, said she has lived in Corpus Christi all her life and has never heard of violence like the shooting last weekend in the area.
"I'm quite worried about what's been happening across the bay," Moon said. "Whether this was a hate crime or not, these two girls were in a relationship. They were out in the park where any of us could go. That's frightening in itself."
Several vehicles were seen at the park the evening of the shootings, and police ask anyone who visited the park Friday night to contact the Portland Police Department. Anyone with information on the identity of the suspect is asked to call police at 361-777-4444. Callers may remain anonymous.

To be normal is the ideal aim of the unsuccessful.
I was born and raised in a small town in Ohio and moved to South Florida a year ago. I am a very social person by nature, but unfortunately my schooling made it difficult for me to have the social life I was used to back home. My ideal match would be someone who sees a relationship as an equal pairing. I want a match who will assert themselves as an individual and basically just to have fun. I know this sounds cliche, but life is meant to be lived not survived.

"Making these patented technologies and approaches available is very important to us," said F. Mark Gumz, President and CEO of Olympus Corporation of the Americas, the parent company of Olympus America Inc. "Allowing Omnyx to license these patents will help advance the field of pathology and may ultimately contribute to better healthcare for people around the world."
"Omnyx is pleased with the licensing of the Olympus patents," said Gene Cartwright, CEO of Omnyx. "This license will provide confidence to future Omnyx customers who want to know their investments in digital pathology are stable and secure."
According to a 2010 report published by Laboratory Economics, $13.2 billion was spent in anatomic pathology testing in the U.S. during 2008. The patented technologies can help deliver valuable images to doctors, streamline the review process, improve speed of reporting, save substantial expense, and enhance patient care. Virtual microscope slide technology also has the potential to aid hospitals in moving to comprehensive patient Electronic Medical Record (EMR) systems – a transition that is already beginning in some areas of the world.

I followed the recipe exactly and it was too sweet to eat. It is a decent base recipe for sauce but with a 1/4 cup of sugar it was inedible.
This was my first time cooking a full meal for my family, and it was a huge sucess. I was able to do something my mother and super-cheif aunt could'nt do, make a spaghetti sauce from scrach. All...
Nice recipe! My husband couldn't have enough of it. I didn't use butter, included 3 cloves of garlic in olive oil while cooking the beef, & added red peppers with the rest of the ingredients. ...

Hotel Reviews
"Excellent hotel"
My family and I stayed here for 4 nights and had a terrific time. The service is very good and very efficient. The hotel's location is really close to town and a quick ride to Angkor Wat. The hotel is a quick 15-20 minute into town or you can catch a Tuk Tuk for $2 into town where there are lots of restaurants, bars and the night markets. The included breakfast is terrific with excellent choices of western or Asian foods. They rotate out the hot food choices daily but there are a few staples like a made to order omelette/egg station, noodle soup station, and rice porridge station. The other hot foods that were rotated were: fried rice, stir fried noodles, pancakes, waffles, sausage, vegetables, and dim sum. Good selection ofMore ⇓
"3 day break in Siem Reap"
Fantastic location in centre of town. Staff were very attentive, facilities of a high standard and level of service outstanding. Breakfast opions were excellent. Bar meal options also very tasty! They make fabulous cocktails. Would definitely visit again.
"Comfortable stay, good location, friendly staff"
nice and friendly staff - comfortable rooms - but the flushing toilet not work very well (mainly because of weak water flow) - the room is big - 10 minute walk to the pub street and 3 mintues walk to the Lucky Mall - recommended to others
"Good resort, great location, excellent pool "
Sokha resort is a very well positioned hotel with large enough rooms at a very nice location. The Deco is very Cambodian, the food options quite international with more Asian options. The staff is very friendly. There's Free WiFi. Pool is quite large and nice though interestingly is a sky water pool for some reason. For a resort though there is not too much to do in the hotel although its location is such that you have a lot of options around. There are interconnected rims for larger families.
"Comfortable stay"
all day I could comfortable stay there.
I recommend the hotel.
The hotel is near by night market so I could enjoy drinking and eating by midnight.The breakfast was good taste and service was so great.

Berlin's Museumsinsel (Museum Island) is a unique area in the central Mitte district, that is home to five of Germany's top museums, each dedicated to a completely different subject matter but all equally brilliant. The small island on which all the museums are based, was built on the Spree River between 1824 and 1930, and was deemed a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1999. Museum Islands provides the perfect setting for a day of cultural cramming and is a must do when in the historical melting pot of Berlin. A day ticket to the area is your best bet, as this allows you full access to all the museums and is the most cost-effective option if you're keen to do it all. The Neues Museum and Pergamon are widely regarded as the most important of the group, but we thought we'd give you a snapshot of each of them to help you make your own mind up.
The Altes Museum
The oldest museum of them all, the Altes Museum was built between 1823 and 1830 and was designed by Karl Friedrich Schinkel. It is one of the most important works of Neoclassical architecture and is home to the Collection of Classical Antiquities, or in layman's terms, artefacts from the ancient Greek and Roman worlds.
The Neues Museum
The Neues Museum, commonly known as the 'New Museum', was finished in 1859 but destroyed in World War II, leading to its reconstruction and re-opening in 2009. This museum is home to the Egyptian bust of Nefertiti and the spectacular, and also boasts both material culture and written sources tracing the development of Old World cultures from prehistory and early history, from the Near East to the Atlantic, and North Africa. It sounds like quite a mouthful but this museum is really interesting and if nothing else, guarantees you the chance to see some mummies - everyone loves a mummy.
The Alte Nationalgalerie
The Alte Nataionalgalerie, or Old National Galerie, boasts a large collection of Neoclassical, Romantic, Biedermeier, Impressionist and early Modernist artwork and is part of the Berlin National Gallery. The gallery houses works by the famous Claude Monet, Karl Friedrich Schinkel and Adolph von Menzel, so it's definitely worth checking out if you're an art enthusiast!
The Bode Museum
Located on the islands northern tip, The Bode Museum is home to a huge collection of sculptures (of the Middle Ages, the Italian Gothic and the early Renaissance), ceramics and glass, Byzantine art, coins and medals.
The Pergamon Museum
The Pergamon Museum is one of the world's major archaeological museums and is home to incredible structures including a partial recreation of the Pergamon Altar (170-159 BC), and the Ishtar Gate of Babylon, dating from the reign of King Nebuchahnezzar (605 - 563 BC). The museum also showcases a large collection of Islamic Art and the largest Numismatic Collection of its kind (coins, coins and more coins).
Aside from the collections in which the museums house, the architecture of the buildings each have their own historical significance and are so also worth learning about upon a visit. Take a picnic lunch along with you, admire the striking architecture and learn about art, history and culture, all in the one place.

This course provides in-depth training on Camera Raw 7, the Photoshop CS6 component that enables photographers to open and manipulate raw format images. Raw images are minimally processed in the camera; they're effectively the exact data recorded by the camera's sensor. Author Chris Orwig shows you how to control a raw image's appearance—exposure, shadow and highlight detail, color balance, and sharpness—with far more precision than is possible with JPEG images. The course also introduces the new workflow procedures and technical concepts and issues associated with raw content, so that photographers can best leverage this powerful format.
In the next couple of movies I want to go through a little bit of a workflow which will include working on an image in Camera Raw, then applying those settings to another photograph or to a group of photographs in Bridge, and then I want to look at how we can work with Actions and how we can batch process our photographs. Well, let's start off with processing one image inside of Camera Raw and then applying those settings by way of a shortcut to another image, or to a group of images inside of Bridge. First, you want to select the photograph that is in a sense kind of iconic, that really shows what type of adjustments you're going to want to make to the entirety of the group of photographs.
Next, press Command+R on a Mac, Ctrl+R on Windows. Then you want to adjust this image with your different panels. We'll start off in the Basic panel. What I notice is that I've lost some detail here in the snow. So I'll go ahead and click my Highlight slider to the left in order to recover some detail here in this part of the picture. Next, I'm going to increase my overall Contrast. I'm also going to deepen my Blacks, brighten my Shadows, bring in a bit of Vibrance and Color Saturation. Then I'm going to increase my Temperature slider here to warm this up.
Again, just process the image in a way that you find interesting. Here you can see this is our before, and then if we click again, you can see the after. After you've worked on your photograph, again, in whatever panels it is that you want to use, you then simply click Done in order to apply those settings. Next, what you can do is copy these Camera Raw settings by way of two different shortcuts. You can either right-click or Ctrl+click, navigate down to Develop Settings, and then choose Copy Settings or you can press the shortcut on your keyboard, which is Option+Command+C on the Mac or Alt+Ctrl+C on Windows.
Then if you move to the other photograph or to all of the other photographs, you can then apply those settings, again, either by right-clicking and choosing the option for Paste or by using the keyboard shortcut, which is Option+Command+V on a Mac, or Alt+Ctrl+V on Windows. In either scenario it will open up this Paste Camera Raw Settings. Here it's asking you, what do you want to paste? In this case, I'm going for everything. We'll click OK in order to apply all of those settings so that you can now see both of these images have the same color characteristics and also the same corrections.
By working this way, what we can do is process groups of pictures at once and this can really speed up our workflow.

In that case, my preference is to order by series.
Standard practice is to alphabetize without the "The," such as
Darkness, The
Fallout 3
Last of Us, The
Saboteur, The
With Oblivion/Skyrim, the question is do you alphabetize by "Elder Scrolls" or the common name?
The beauty is that it's all your choice. It's your collection so you can do whatever works for you.
I never though of alphabetizing TES starting with E for Elder Scrolls

Sami Inkinen's life is his data, and vice versa.
"I have to have the numbers," says Inkinen, co-founder of the real estate website Trulia Inc. and a top-ranked amateur triathlete, as he wheels his $8,000 Orbea road bike to the starting line for a race in October.
Inkinen, who holds $52.6 million of Trulia shares after the company's initial public offering last year, soon charged up Mount Diablo in California amid a pack of 600 on a brisk autumn Sunday. A black band around his chest monitored his heart as it speeded to 156 beats a minute. Devices in a wheel hub measured his power output at 377 watts and his average speed at 13.4 miles an hour.
The data fed wirelessly into a computer on the handlebars so he could later upload his results to the website Strava and compare them against those of hundreds of other riders.
The 37-year-old Inkinen has been recording more than two dozen such variables for years, including sleep, mood and caffeine intake, seeking patterns he can exploit to improve his results in sports and business. Inkinen is part of an expanding universe of self-quantifiers who collect megabytes of personal data seeking an edge much like the devotees of quantitative analysis who transformed Wall Street.
There is a dark side even at some levels of amateur competition. Swimmers, runners, cyclists and triathletes have been penalized for using illegal performance-enhancing substances. In addition, one cyclist trying to post the fastest time on Strava for a route — laying claim to the virtual title "King of the Mountain" — crashed and died in California, according to a lawsuit against Strava.
Lance Armstrong, the world's most prominent confessed doping cheat, competes on closely held Strava Inc.'s website until his data, but not his account, dropped from the site. He had held more than 150 running-course records and King of the Mountain cycling rankings (known as KOMs) until Feb. 6, when they disappeared from his Strava page.
San Francisco-based Strava, which advertised on broadcasts of last year's Tour de France, treats Armstrong as "just another member of the community," says Chief Executive Officer Michael Horvath. Some Strava competitors urged banning Armstrong because of his doping.
Strava and rival sites such as MapMyRide, TrainingPeaks, Garmin Connect and dailymile tap into the psychological elements that make sports rewarding, says Ian Bogost, a game designer who teaches at Georgia Institute of Technology in Atlanta. They exploit people's competitive instincts to get them to ride their bikes faster, or work harder.
"What is the medium- to long-term consequence of a social environment where everything is attached to direct feedback and immediate reward?" Bogost says. "I don't know what the answer is, but I'm a bit afraid of it."
Amateur self-quants provide a ready market for electronic gadgets that make data-gathering easier. These include wristbands such as Larklife, Jawbone UP, Nike FuelBand and Fitbit Flex. For cyclists, Garmin Ltd. just introduced the $500 Edge 810 wireless, touch-screen, GPS-equipped bike computer, to collect data and provide navigation and weather forecasts. The devices enable anyone to gather, analyze and compare data in ways that were once available only to elite athletes.
Finnish data wonk
For Sami Inkinen, these tools only complement a self-quantification effort that began more than a decade ago as hand-drawn notes on three-hole paper. He was earning a master's degree at the Stanford Graduate School of Business near Palo Alto, Calif. Raised on a farm in Finland, Inkinen says he came to love data while studying for a master's in engineering physics at Helsinki University of Technology.
"People like to talk about feelings and emotions, even when it relates to performance," Inkinen says. "More often than not, there are biological fundamentals underneath it. If you can understand and measure that, then you can make pretty objective decisions about how to improve it."
Inkinen has a scatter-plot graph showing correlation between mood and athletic performance. The day he rode up the 3,200-foot (975-meter) Mount Diablo, he rated his mood at 4 on a scale of 1 to 5, where 5 means "I'm ready to change the world," he says. He generated the highest wattage at the lowest peak heart rate in the race, according to Strava, and finished eighth.
In his 27-column spreadsheet, Inkinen also notes meditation time, happiness, productivity, caloric intake, number of push-ups and other fitness activities. He says the data give him a unique ability to control circumstances, have helped him finish an Ironman triathlon in less than nine hours and contributed to the success of Trulia.
He has also annoyed his wife of two years, Meredith Loring, she says. The couple met through an online dating service, where Loring's profile said she enjoyed running. She proved it on their second date, challenging him to a trail run that lasted more than three hours because neither would suggest stopping.
"As soon as we get home from a run, he is in his spreadsheet writing down all of the numbers," says Loring, 33, a strategy consultant for health and wellness companies.
Online competition makes cyclists ride more and try harder, says Bryan Borgia, co-founder of Topwater Capital Partners in South Norwalk, Conn. Borgia, 36, became KOM last July on a segment south of Portsmouth, N.H., for example. He covered a 0.6-mile stretch of Route 1A in 66 seconds, beating hundreds of other riders.
"I can get myself to go pretty hard," Borgia says. "But if it's for Strava and I'm going out to beat someone, I'm probably going to go harder."
Encouraged to "tear it up"
William Flint was killed in June 2010 after his bike hit a car while he was riding a Strava KOM challenge in Tilden Park in Orinda, Calif., near San Francisco, according to a wrongful-death lawsuit his family filed against Strava in state court in San Francisco. Flint was trying "to regain his title" after another cyclist posted a time on Strava breaking Flint's previous record for the ride, according to the lawsuit.
Strava failed to ensure that its challenges took place on safe courses and encouraged "dangerous behavior," the plaintiffs said in the complaint. "Cyclists are encouraged to 'tear it up' on the road," they said.
The company filed counterclaims alleging that when Flint became a website member in 2009 he electronically signed the site's terms and conditions, indemnifying Strava and waiving any claims arising from use of the site. Flint was riding "recklessly" over the posted speed limit on the wrong side of the road, Strava said in court papers, and the company isn't liable because the death resulted from Flint's own negligence.
The company's lawyers on Jan. 24 asked the court to dismiss its counterclaims without prejudice, meaning it can reinstitute them later. The court filings don't give a reason why Strava dropped the claims. A trial is scheduled for July 1.
After the Flint accident, Strava made it possible for users to designate courses that may be hazardous, according to the company's CEO, Horvath. Flagged routes — mostly descents — no longer feature leaderboards or KOMs. The ride Flint was taking is now in that category, according to the Strava website.
"It gives the community a tool to help determine what's safe and what's not," Horvath says. "Too steep, too much traffic or ... construction. "
Breathing hard, Jeff Howell, a data project manager, crests a popular 4.2-mile climb south of San Francisco and hits stop on his bike computer. Wearing Strava cycling jersey and shorts, he says he's pleased to post his second-fastest time on the route. Another cyclist zips past without a helmet.
"I don't see Strava inducing that kind of bad behavior," Howell says. "You have to take responsibility for yourself and know your limits."
At San Francisco-based Trulia, Inkinen's fascination with data permeates the corporate culture, says Pete Flint, co-founder and CEO. The company surveys its 534 employees, known as "Trulians," every three months using a "happiness index" that Inkinen created, Flint says.
There is lots of Inkinen lore at the company. Flint relates how in the early days the co-founders were Wednesday night regulars at a sushi restaurant. The order never changed: seaweed salad, sashimi, edamame and water.
"As soon as I started to mix things up, there was a revolt from Sami," Flint says. Inkinen didn't want a change in diet to affect the data he was monitoring on himself. For the same reason, Inkinen went through a spell of eating "the same thing for breakfast, lunch and dinner: a can of cold Progresso chicken soup," Flint says.
The data let him down after the Mount Diablo ride in California, however. Inkinen was using the race as a final warm-up for his sixth appearance in the Ironman World Championship six days later in Hawaii. Comparing his Mount Diablo data from October with results a year earlier, he was confident he would be able to complete the Ironman in less than 9 hours again.
He had plenty of reasons for confidence. Two months earlier, he won the amateur title in an Ironman race in Sweden, finishing in just over 8 hours, 24 minutes and winning a Strava KOM for the bicycling portion.
As the Hawaii Ironman began, Inkinen was the amateur favorite, according to the event's website. He was in first place among amateurs after the 2.4-mile swim and 112-mile bicycle stage, and he retained the lead through the first half of the 26.2-mile running portion. That is when his brain told him something that his data didn't.
"I just started feeling ridiculously tired," Inkinen says. He did what Ironman competitors typically resist at all costs. He stopped and dropped out of the race.
Afterward, Inkinen reviewed his data in search of an explanation. He says it may lie in a viral infection he had after the race in Sweden. While he was ill, his resting heart rate rose 20 percent to 46 beats a minute from 38, according to the spreadsheet.
During the race in Hawaii, "my body or brain or both refused to continue to work," Inkinen says. "It doesn't matter if the device on your wrist says you can go; your brain stops you. If you were able to override it, you would maybe do permanent damage or maybe kill yourself."
Inkinen cites another reason for dropping out. Eighteen days after the Ironman, Inkinen was set to compete in the 161-mile La Ruta de los Conquistadores mountain-bike race across Costa Rica.
"I didn't want to end up in the hospital and miss that trip," he said. "I made a business decision."

A message in a bottle, the traditional sailor's way of getting messages back to the world about their plight, which was thrown in the sea in Germany 101 years ago is believed to be the world's oldest. It has now been presented to the sender's granddaughter.
Message-in-a-bottle, 101 years old - photo by Uwe Paesler/AFP-Getty
A fisherman pulled the beer bottle with the scribbled message out of the Baltic off the northern city of Kiel last month, said Holger von Neuhoff of the International Maritime Museum in the northern port city of Hamburg.
'This is certainly the first time such an old message in a bottle was found, particularly with the bottle intact,' he said.
Researchers then set to work identifying the author and managed to track down his 62-year-old granddaughter Angela Erdmann, who lives in Berlin. 'It was almost unbelievable,' Erdmann told the German news agency DPA.
She was first able to hold the brown bottle last week at the Hamburg museum. Inside was a message on a postcard requesting the finder return it to the writer's home address in Berlin.
'That was a pretty moving moment,' Erdmann said. 'Tears rolled down my cheeks.'
Von Neuhoff said researchers were able to determine based on the address that it was 20-year-old baker's son Richard Platz who threw the bottle in the Baltic in 1913.
A Berlin-based genealogical researcher then located Erdmann, who never knew Platz, her mother's father who died in 1946 at the age of 54.
Von Neuhoff said a handwriting comparison with letters penned by Platz later in life confirmed that he was 'without a doubt' the author.
Erdmann told local newspapers that the surprise discovery had inspired her to look through family scrapbooks to learn more about her grandfather, a Social Democrat who liked to read.
Much of the ink on the postcard had been rendered illegible with time and dampness, Von Neuhoff said.
The discovery will be on display at the museum until 1 May, after which experts will set to work trying to decipher the rest of the message.
Guinness World Records previously identified the oldest message in a bottle as dating from 1914. It spent nearly 98 years at sea before being fished from the water.

Originally written on Pro Sports Daily | Last updated 12/12/12
HOUSTON -- Rockets guard James Harden returned from a one-game injury hiatus and provided the Houston Rockets with a scoring punch that, considering the opponent, few anticipated would be so sorely needed. With the lowly Washington Wizards refusing to relent on the heels of their first road win, Tuesday night in New Orleans, the Rockets struggled before pulling out an unsightly 99-93 win Wednesday night at Toyota Center. Harden paced Houston with 31 points after being sidelined Monday due to a sprained right ankle. The Rockets maintained their breakneck pace against the San Antonio Spurs even without Harden, eventually falling in overtime. Their offense was less efficient against Washington. "That's the kind of typical James game where he just makes plays and attacks," Rockets coach Kevin McHale said. "We had some things going where we had some drops on some passes back to our bigs, and our bigs have got to go in there and finish strong, get fouled and make some plays around t...

CARE is one of the world's largest private international humanitarian organizations, committed to helping families in poor communities improve their lives and achieve lasting victories over poverty. The organization was founded in 1945, when 22 American organizations came together to rush lifesaving CARE Packages® to survivors of World War II. CARE quickly became a trusted vehicle for the compassion and generosity of millions. Originally located in New York City, we moved our headquarters to Atlanta, Georgia, in 1993. We are located at 151 Ellis Street, NE, Atlanta, Georgia 30303-2440 USA.
Keep learning:
In October 1993, the global poverty-fighting organization CARE moved its headquarters to Atlanta. Twenty years later, we held a celebration marking the special anniversary.
We seek a world of hope, tolerance and social justice, where poverty has been overcome and people live in dignity and security.
The global poverty-fighting organization CARE today received a contribution of $2.4 million as a result of a Holiday Campaign in H&M stores worldwide. "We are very grateful for this generous contribution," said Dr. Robert Glasser, secretary general of CARE International. "These funds will allow us to empower women entrepreneurs and workers from low-income urban communities in Ethiopia and help us raise global awareness of the enormous benefits associated with empowering women and girls in the fight against poverty and social injustice."
This 16 page evaluation showcases the final results of the groundbreaking program designed and implemented by CARE Ethiopia and evaluated by the International Center for Research on Women, "Towards Economic ans Sexual Reproductive Health Outcomes for Adolescent Girls,' or TESFA, which impacted the lives of 5,000 child brides.
Historic resolution aims to combat child marriage around the world
ATLANTA – (December 1, 2014) – CARE, one of the world's leading humanitarian organizations, applauds the UN General Assembly's adoption of the first substantive resolution on early, child and forced marriage.
Reaching toward a more gender equal world enables societies to tap everyone's potential – regardless of their gender - for stronger, more fulfilling and resilient relationships, households and societies. CARE is committed to promoting gender equality as a cornerstone for lasting change, reducing poverty, and achieving social justice. Supporting gender equality requires not only a commitment to supporting the empowerment of women and girls, but also engaging men and boys as allies in this effort.
This 12 page brief lays out lessons learned from CARE's learning intiative on Engaging Men and Boys.
This ten page brief lays out CARE's framework for engaging men and boys and presents stories of change using this methodology.
ATLANTA—(October 6, 2014)—CARE Director of Water Peter Lochery received the prestigious 2015 International Water Prize from the WaTER Center at the University of Oklahoma.
The award recognizes an individual who has made significant international contributions, either through research, teaching, or service activities, in the field of water supply and sanitation, with a focus on the world's poorest living in small villages/communities in rural or remote regions.
HOUSTON (Sept. 15, 2014) — Celebrity chef Spike Mendelsohn and Atlanta chef Asha Gomez will host a CARE advocacy dinner in Houston this week to raise awareness about global hunger. More than 840 million people around the world do not have enough to eat.
"Food is a universal amongst all of us," Mendelsohn said "We all need it; we all work with it. And it's very important that chefs or just human beings in general understand what the rest of the world is going through to get food to their plate."
These questions came out of lengthy discussions with project teams in Bangladesh and Nepal. As a learning project, Tipping Point staff and community groups will intentionally explore these questions in the course of our work with communities and networks.
1. How can community mobilization strategies be applied to change community norms related to child marriage and its root causes?
