Trapped proteins find strength in numbers
An unusual composite material in which several thousand protein molecules are apparently packed into a nanoscale cluster and 'glued' within a highly porous silica matrix might find applications as a stable form of the biomolecules for chemical and biological sensing. Debra Rolison and co-workers at the Naval Research Laboratory in Washington, DC, find that their biocomposite, containing the haem protein cytochrome c, can bind nitric oxide in the gas phase. Encapsulated in a silica aerogel, which is mostly open pore space, the proteins are highly accessible to molecules that diffuse through the pores.

Prayer Warrior Moms: Moving Heaven and Earth for Our Kids
Fervent, loving intercession
Fervent, loving intercession
Your kids look to you as their example of gratitude. When you choose to live in victory, giving praise to God for everything that you have, you model the attitude of Christ to your children. Thankfulness reflects God's kingdom order; it unlocks the heavenly storehouse of His treasures. When we forget to thank Him, we miss out on many of the blessings He has prepared for us. But here's the kicker: An attitude of thankfulness doesn't just happen to us; we must learn to intentionally cultivate it.

Indian leader Narendra Modi, the prime ministerial candidate for India's Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP)..
(photo credit:REUTERS)
It was India's "Arab Spring" of sorts.An unprecedented 540 million, or 66.38 percent, of the country's 814 million eligible voters booted out the discredited Indian National Congress (INC) party by giving the right-wing Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) a landslide mandate.This largest electoral exercise in history, costing $5.2 billion and spanning a nine-phase five-week voting schedule, was marked by a bitter contest between the two national parties.Helmed by the BJP's prime ministerial nominee, Narendra Modi, the opposition party crafted a campaign that capitalized on the popular ire against the Congress for its massive corruption scandals, runaway inflation, mounting unemployment and its entrenched dynastic reign. Corruption alone is estimated to pare 0.5 percent off India's GDP every year.With a tally of 282 seats, the BJP became the country's first political party to have on its own won a decisive majority of the 543 seats of the Lower House of Parliament in any general election since 1984. In turn, with 44 seats, the Congress, India's grand old party that has ruled for 54 of the 67 years since independence in 1947, was mauled to its worst ever count, its previous lowest having been 114 in 1999.The Congress's capitulation humiliated particularly the mother-son duo of the country's enduring Nehru- Gandhi dynasty who choreographed and stewarded their party's campaign. Party president Sonia Gandhi, the 63-year-old Italian-born widow of former prime minister Rajiv Gandhi, and her 43-year-old son Rahul, the party vice president and prime ministerial aspirant, made it a personal contest. They raised fears over what they termed the divisive Hindu nationalist policies of the BJP and demeaned Modi for the 2002 religious riots in the western state of Gujarat where he has been chief minister since October 2001. They and their party colleagues also reviled him for his humble origins as a tea vendor.While the Congress rout denied Rahul Gandhi the prime ministership, his father Rajiv Gandhi, grandmother, Indira Gandhi, and great grandfather, Jawaharlal Nehru, had all been prime ministers, ruling a cumulative 37 years.Modi, who is Sonia Gandhi's age, leveraged his modest background to his advantage in a country where the impoverished comprise a large part of the population of 1.25 billion. He cast the Gandhis as elitist and found a ready response from the electorate when he lampooned their autocratic functioning, having relegated 81-yearold Prime Minister Manmohan Singh to complete inconsequence during the two consecutive five-year terms of the Congress-led United Progressive Alliance (UPA).He struck a chord with the poor, middle classes and the burgeoning youth by making development and good governance the immediate priorities of his government. Mindful of his detractors' sustained charges against him of being a communal leader who oversaw the brutalities against the Muslim community during the 2002 violence in Gujarat, he sought to reach out to all sections of society in his campaigning.The case against Modi on the Gujarat riots wound its way to the Supreme Court, which acquitted him as it did not find sufficient evidence for a conviction.The riots, which were a backlash to an incident of arson on a train at Godhra in Gujarat that killed 59 Hindu pilgrims, took a toll of 790 Muslims, and 254 Hindus.The massive mandate for Modi showed that the electorate was more concerned about development and progress that had been retarded by policy paralysis and political indifference that had characterized the UPA's rule.While the UPA won 60 seats, including the Congress's 44, the BJP-led National Democratic Alliance (NDA) bagged 344, including the BJP's 282.Modi's elevation also turned Washington around after having revoked Modi's US visa in 2005 on the ground of alleged human rights violations in the 2002 Gujarat riots. After the results were declared, US President Barack Obama phoned Modi to congratulate him, and to invite him "to visit Washington at a mutually agreeable time to further strengthen our bilateral relationship."The State Department too mentioned in a statement: "The prime minister of India will be welcomed to the United States. As head of government, Mr. Modi would be eligible for an A-1 visa."Among other world leaders who congratulated him on his triumph were Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe and Nawaz Sharif, prime minister of neighboring Pakistan that has had intractable disputes with India.The new BJP government is tentatively scheduled to be sworn in on 21 May in New Delhi. The mandate provides Modi the scope to shape his government as he intends, without the constraints that have hindered past coalitions. He has raised expectations of good governance, a reformed administration, clear policy, business- friendliness, poverty amelioration, revamped taxation and political will that will kickstart growth and manufacturing, streamline infrastructure, and expand agriculture.If he has been able to achieve what he has since helping his father out as a child in selling tea from a roadside stall, people feel he is poised to achieve that much more.The author is executive editor of Business India.

Son of a London stockbroker, British actor Leslie Howard worked as a bank clerk after graduating from London's Dulwich School. Serving briefly in World War I, Howard was mustered out for medical reasons in 1918, deciding at that time to act for a living. Working in both England and the U.S. throughout the 1920s, Howard specialized in playing disillusioned intellectuals in such plays as Outward Bound, the film version of which served as his 1930 film debut. Other films followed on both sides of the Atlantic, the best of these being Howard's masterful star turn in The Scarlet Pimpernel (1934). In 1935, Howard portrayed yet another disenchanted soul in The Petrified Forest, which co-starred Humphrey Bogart as a gangster patterned after John Dillinger. Howard was tapped for the film version, but refused to make the movie unless Bogart was also hired (Warner Bros. had planned to use their resident gangster type, Edward G. Robinson). Hardly a candidate for "Mr. Nice Guy" -- he was known to count the lines of his fellow actors and demand cuts if they exceeded his dialogue -- Howard was nonetheless loyal to those he cared about. Bogart became a star after The Petrified Forest, and in gratitude named his first daughter Leslie Bogart. Somehow able to hide encroaching middle-age when on screen, Howard played romantic leads well into his late 40s, none more so than the role of -- yes -- disillusioned intellectual Southern aristocrat Ashley Wilkes in the 1939 classic Gone with the Wind. In the late 1930s, Howard began dabbling in directing, notably in his starring films Pygmalion (1938) and Pimpernel Smith (1941). Fiercely patriotic, Howard traveled extensively on behalf of war relief; on one of these trips, he boarded a British Overseas Airways plane in 1943 with several other British notables, flying en route from England to Lisbon. The plane was shot down over the Bay of Biscay and all on board were killed. Only after the war ended was it revealed that Howard had selflessly taken that plane ride knowing it would probably never arrive in Lisbon; it was ostensibly carrying Prime Minister Winston Churchill, and was sent out as a decoy so that Churchill's actual plane would be undisturbed by enemy fire.

TIMedia-LA7, one of Italy's largest terrestrial broadcasters, is installing a large-scale Utah Scientific routing system, which consists of two UTAH-400/528 video routers with integrated audio routing, at the heart of a technical infrastructure being renovated to provide 3G/HD/SDI signal distribution.
TIMedia-LA7, owned by Telecom Italia Media (TIM), operates two main TV services, LA7 and LA7d, along with specialty channels, Web TV and satellite channels.
The Utah Scientific system enables TIMedia-LA7 to take a new approach to managing audio and video in a large, complex environment that encompasses the media company's two facilities in Rome. In addition to providing the routing capabilities and reliability required by TIMedia-LA7, the system will enable the company to enhance and extend its playout services, realize greater organizational effectiveness and optimize its use of technological resources.
The UTAH-400/528 router offers a 528 x 528 video and 2000 x 2000 audio matrix in a single 20RU frame. It can be scaled using a single set of matrix building blocks. The router includes redundant power supplies and supports signal format flexibility, including the ability to handle 3Gb/s progressive-scan HD signal formats, with an internal audio embedder and de-embedder, as well as AES and MADI audio interfaces.

Randy Fairbanks, running against Commission Chairman Fred Skillern for the District 1 position, said he was a UTC graduate and an accountant. He told the crowd he had been involved in Republican politics since the early 1990s.
He said if elected he wanted to get out into the community and be a commissioner that people could talk to.
When asked if he would support a tax increase to fund projects put forward by the School Board, he said he was not in favor of any tax increase. He said, "You have to live within your means."
When asked what he had done to fight annexation, he said he did not have any experience living in an area that had fought annexation.
He was also asked if he would support same-sex benefits. He said he would not for religious reasons.
The next three candidates, Perry Perkins, Sabrena Turner and Phil Smartt, are all running for the District 7 position.
Mr. Perkins opened, saying, "We've all pledged to run a good, clean campaign." He said, if elected, he wanted to focus on "making sure people want to move to Chattanooga when they graduate from school." He also said he wanted students who graduated from Chattanooga schools to be able to find good-paying jobs here without having to go to Nashville or Atlanta.
When asked about increasing taxes, he said he believed every commissioner would face that battle soon. He said, "We have to support those schools," but told the audience money should be raised through growth and not tax increases.
He said he believed annexation could be fought more at the state level than local level but that he was against it.
As for same-sex benefits, he said, "I will never vote for anything against the Tennessee state law. Tennessee state law says that marriage is between a man and a woman."
He closed, saying, "It comes down to leadership, having a vision for this county. I can reach out to people with different ideas from different walks of life."
Phil Smartt started, "I believe in the values the Republican Party stands for." He said he had been a manager on the Reagan campaign and involved on the Romney campaign.
He said he believed that one of the keys to solving the crime problem was strong and traditional families.
When asked about taxes for education, he said, "I don't think at the present time there's need for a tax increase. I think there are other ways this can be done." He said since all of his children had attended Hamilton County schools, he had also had experience with the public school system.
He said he was against annexation and same-sex benefits. He said, "I'm against domestic partners. I'm totally opposed to it, I think it's wrong."
He said, "I'm the best qualified not only because I've served in small business for 38 years, but also because I've served in government and I know how government works."
Sabrena Turner, running against Mr. Perkins and Mr. Smartt, described herself as a small business owner who had worked on building lasting relationships with the people of District 7.
She said leadership was needed to keep the county growing. She said, "I want to look out for Hamilton County as a whole."
As for the annexation question, she disagreed with her opponents. She said, "I'm going to disagree with Mr. Perkins, it is fought on the local level. I've done it, filed lawsuits, and stopped it."
She also said she would never vote in favor of same-sex benefits and said she would only support a tax increase "if it were a dire emergency and there were no other options."
She said, "It's time for a new generation to lead."
Currently, there is also a three-way race in District 8 on the Republican side. Current Commissioner Tim Boyd is running for re-election against former Commissioner Curtis Adams and East Ridge Mayor Brent Lambert.
Commissioner Boyd described himself as an entrepreneur and businessman who got into politics four years ago. He said since he had become a commissioner, he has worked to develop literacy and alternative sentencing programs with high success rates.
When asked about taxes, he said, "We do not need new taxes in Hamilton County at this time." He said the revenue coming into the county had increased, as had the fund balance.
He gave a solution to the issue of same-sex benefits. He said no one but the employee should be covered and if they wanted to bring someone else into the plan, they should have to pay the premium. He also said he did not support annexation.
As he closed, he said, "I'm a very analytic person. I represent the people. I'm not there to make a lot of friends. I ask the tough questions."
Curtis Adams, who previously was elected six times to the County Commission, said he used to be called the "Education Commissioner" because of his work to improve Hamilton County Schools.
He said, "We need to put our muscle into the schools that are weakest and help them get what they need."
He suggested a $25 wheel tax as an alternative to other tax increases to fund the school system. When asked about annexation, he said, "I think anybody would be crazy to want to be annexed." Like the others, he was also adamantly opposed to same-sex benefits as well.
He said, "I believe the reason I was elected six times for County Commissioner was because I did a good job." He also said he "tried to look after the little things about people, such as looking out for senior citizens."
He joked, "I didn't read anything in the Bible where it mentions retirement."
East Ridge Mayor Lambert said he was a "lifelong resident of the area and a lifelong Republican." He also said he was serving his sixth year on the East Ridge City Council.
He said, "I want to improve economic development in District 8." He also said if elected, he would work to create "stronger schools."
Mr. Lambert had to leave before he could answer any other questions, but he said he was also against annexation.

Perfect holiday. All staff in the hotel are very friendly and helpful. The hotel is spacious, airy with plenty of sofas and comfy chairs in the lounges and bar area. Our room was lovely with new furniture, large double bed.and clean bathroom with bath and shower. We paid extra for a sea view which was worth it as the rooms at the back of the hotel look out onto the car park.
We had no problems with the lifts or anything else. The air conditioning worked but we were happy with the balcony doors open and the sound of the sea. The meals were all self service buffet and plentiful , average quality which is usual for a buffet but plenty of choice. The evening entertainment is limited but perfect if you want a quiet holiday. Plenty of sun lounges on the beach.
We used the free hotel bus to go to Corfu town and had plenty of time to sightsee. If we had stayed longer than a week we would have hired a car to see more of the island as First choice tours were very expensive.
This hotel is perfect for a relaxing quiet holiday on the beach. Best suited to couples or families with young children, not for families with teenagers. Glyfada is very quiet in the evenings as there are no other hotels, only 2 nearby beach bars but these were not open in the evening (not sure if they open later in the season).
We had a fantastic holiday and would not hesitate to recommend this hotel.

Trade for Leonard still paying dividends
By Jeff McDonald It is common perception, bordering on misconception, that Spurs management runs any important decision by the franchise's most important player.

Early returns promising on Spurs' defense
By Jeff McDonald When it comes to pinpointing the most indelible moment of the Spurs' young season so far, there's little competition.

Google Glass monthly update: more Google Now cards and voice commands
Google has committed to releasing one large update for Google Glass a month, and Monday, the company released August's update.
The August update primarily focuses on Google Now cards, adding more useful information for your day. Now you'll be reminded of dinner reservations, hotel bookings and concerts; Google will look through your email to see what to remind you about.
Other information accessible includes movie showtimes and movie information from nearby cinemas. Emergency alerts have also been added to warn you about a severe thunderstorm, flash flood, or tornado warning. That's not to mention traffic information (including conditions and alternate routes), weather, and live sports scores from your favourite teams.
Past Google Now cards, the Mountain View-based company has also added two new voice commands. You can now mutter "Post an update" to post to Path and "Take a note" to transcribe to Evernote. Google says more third-party services will be added over time.
Lastly, you can now tap on the side of your Glass to pause, play, and swipe to fast forward or rewind, on video player apps like CNN.
Google Glass is currently available for a select few souls who got into Google's $1,500 Explorer program. It's expected to be released to the masses in 2014. You can read our hands-on with Google Glass for more details about the product.

New answers tagged rear-lcd
It has become a valuable tool for me, not forcing me to physically try to get that lower angle shot during shooting in front of stages.Hold the screen in left hand,(portrait mode)and move camera body at the pivot point,looking at the screen to find my target.Also that method of use comes in handy in other situations where a lower angle shot is desired.
One solution for this is to use a hood. It's basically a black box that you place on your display. You look into it through a little eye piece that often also magnifies. Take a look at what's available at B&H for example. As you can see, making the image brighter is not a good solution. It will eat up more battery while still being unable to compete ...
So, you can't — there's no option for this. However, if you use the EVF only + eye sensor mode, and then press the DISP button while looking at the rear screen, it will a cycle between: no-distraction live view (only showing the scene) live view with shooting info (aperture, ISO, focus mode, etc., as configured in the settings menu) a black and white ...

A family of four rescued from their sailboat after the youngest of two children became seriously ill are due to return to California on Wednesday aboard a U.S. warship that picked them up over the weekend, Navy and Coast Guard officials said.
Military officials declined on Monday to give any details on the medical condition of 1-year-old Lyra Kaufman except to say that she, her 3-year-old sister, Cora, and their parents, Eric and Charlotte Kaufman, were all safe as they headed back to port in San Diego.
"I know she's stable enough to stay on board the ship to continue to San Diego," Coast Guard spokeswoman Lieutenant Anna Dixon said.
The family was two weeks into a planned around-the-world cruise on their 36-foot (11-meter) sloop when Lyra developed a fever and rash, prompting her parents to send a distress call to the Coast Guard by satellite phone on Thursday.
In addition to the child falling ill, the family reported that their boat was taking on water whenever they tried to start the vessel's engine, Dixon said.
A four-man team from the California Air National Guard's 129th Rescue Wing was dispatched by military plane to the scene, about 1,000 miles (1,600 km) out in the Pacific off Mexico, to render immediate medical assistance.
The rescue team parachuted into the ocean, reached the sailboat in a motorized inflatable dinghy and boarded the family's vessel late on Thursday to treat the child.
The rescuers then remained on the sailboat with the family until the Navy frigate, the USS Vandegrift, which had been conducting routine operations off the Southern California coast, arrived on Sunday to take all four Kaufmans aboard for a return voyage.
The sailboat, christened the Rebel Heart, was scuttled by the Navy as a navigation hazard, in concurrence with the family that the boat was not seaworthy enough to tow back to port, Dixon said.
The family resides in San Diego, which is also the Vandegrift's home port, said Lieutenant Lenaya Rotklein, a spokeswoman for the U.S. Navy Third Fleet.
The Kaufmans have defended their decision to take their young children out to sea on such a trip.
"We understand there are those who question our decision to sail with our family, but please know this is how our family has lived for seven years," they said in a statement on Sunday. "We ... remain confident that we prepared as well as any sailing crew could."
Still, in a blog post one week into their journey, Charlotte Kaufman said of their voyage, "This may be the stupidest thing we have ever done."
Navy and Coast Guard officials declined to comment when asked whether the Kaufmans had shown poor judgment in embarking on round-the-globe sailing voyage with an infant and toddler.

Remastered remix of AWAKENING AKA TERRAS SONG by DJ Spaztik published on 2013/02/09 23:07:38 +0000 A reproduction and instrumental remix of my favorite Final Fantasy track. Nostalgia most likely because FFX had great music... But even old SNES MIDIs were amazing. Used Acid and various Komplete 8 tools for production. Its slightly longer due to the original tempo choice... The slower tempo was a drastic improvement as it became too close to pure dance/trance/breakbeat music.
