The National Museum of Ireland is opening a new interactive discovery gallery called the Barracks Life Room on Thursday 5 March 2009. This hands-on gallery is the first of its type to be opened at the National Museum of Ireland.
The Barracks Life Room provides visitors with opportunities to explore what life in the Barracks may have been like as a solider in the 19th and 20th centuries. The room is a detailed reconstructed of how a barracks room would have looked in 1879 and 1943 and contains areas where visitors can try on costumes and handle objects, as well as use more sophisticated ways of exploring history such as computer interactives.
Siobhan Pierce, one of the Education Officers at the National Museum of Ireland behind bringing this area to life, commented that "the themes explored in the room, the choice of displays and the levels of information provided have all been developed with families and school groups in mind."
To find out more information about any of these events, email the Education and Outreach Department at the National Museum of Ireland or telephone 01 6486 453.

Select Varieties Carefully

Return to Home Page
Care and Maintenance
Select varieties for resistance to cold and heat, for season of bloom, color of flowers, attractiveness of foliage, and especially for type and ultimate size of the plant for the particular landscape spot in your garden. American Rhododendron Society hardiness ratings will help you with your decision. Plant and flower descriptions, as well as colored photographs, are available for most varieties. Please do not hesitate to ask your local ARS members, County Extension Agents or nurserymen for their expert advice.
Rhododendrons prefer a porous, well-drained acidic soil where there will be some high, broken shade.
In the Pacific Northwest, rhododendrons generally can take more sun than those growing in hotter areas of the country or where there are fewer cloudy days. Generally, rhododendrons with smaller leaves or smaller plant structures can take more sun. Species of these types generally are found in the alpine areas where the sun is more intense, but these plants also receive more moisture in the form of "low" clouds or fog. The smaller plants also require very good drainage.
Avoid planting too close to a house foundation or under a roof overhang where watering might be a problem or under trees which make dense shade or have shallow, aggressive root systems.
Observe the amount of growth that the plant has put on in the last year. Multiply the length of this growth by 10 and you can estimate how large the plant will be in 10 years. Use this as a guide as to where you might want to plant it. Also observe the size of the leaves on the plant, if the leaves are longer than 6 inches, you may want to ensure that the rhododendron is planted in a location that is sheltered from strong winds.
A microclimate is an area where the weather conditions are different than the general conditions for the larger area. If your garden is located in a low spot, it is likely that the temperature will drop lower than the reported temperature for the area as the cold air settles in the depression. If the garden is on a slope, then the cold air will drain down the slope and settle in the lower garden. The location of the garden can also receive either more rain or less rain than the norm because of its location and can be more exposed to the wind or be more sheltered. Proper siting of your garden can take advantage of these differences.
If the rootball seems dry, soak the rootball while you are preparing the hole. If you have a lot of clay in your soil and do not have good drainage or if your soil is alkaline, you may prefer to plant the rhododendron on top of the ground or in a raised bed.
Dig the hole half again as large as the rootball. If the soil does not have good drainage, you may prefer to add a 50% mixture of moist peatmoss to the planting hole.
Before placing the plant in the hole, remove the burlap wrap or plastic container. If the plant is rootbound (a lot of exposed roots), work the roots loose so that they can grow into the new planting area. Otherwise, gently, but firmly loosen the rootball with your hands to encourage new root growth. DO NOT ALLOW THE ROOTS TO DRY OUT IN THE BREEZE OR TO BECOME EXPOSED TO THE SUN.
Put some of the soil mix into the bottom of the hole and place the rootball into the hole ensuring that the top of the rootball is no lower than the surrounding ground. Also, leave the top of the rootball uncovered by backfill. Water well.
After planting, mulch with bark, wood chips, pine needles or any coarse organic material to conserve moisture, keep the soil cool and restrict the growth of weeds. DO NOT mulch with peatmoss because when the peatmoss is dry, water will run off of the area and will not penetrate the peatmoss to get to the rootball.
Try to avoid placing the mulch against the main stem
Fertilizing should be done with discretion. After the plant becomes established, fertilizing should be done lightly or only if the plant is showing signs of needing fertilizer.
Soils vary across the Country and certain fertilizers are made for specific areas. Unless your soil is quite acidic, pH 6 or below, use a mixture containing nitrogen such as ammonium sulfate - often called "Rhododendron, Azalea or Camellia Fertilizer". Always thoroughly water plants at the time of fertilizer application. At planting, scatter a small amount on top of the soil before mulching. Later applications should be on top of the mulch and watered in. Applications may be made in the early Spring if the plant appears to need fertilizer.
Where soils are more alkaline, above pH6, an iron chelate may be useful in maintaining a good green plant color. If the soil is very alkaline, sulfur applications may be necessary. DO NOT USE aluminum sulfate. Please consult your local nursery or County Extension Agent.
"Deadheading", or breaking off faded flower clusters, tends to encourage flower buds for the next blooming season and will prevent the plant from using its energy to develop seeds. Also, it makes the plant look more attractive.
Care should be taken not to damage the new growth buds that may be starting to expand immediately under the faded flower.
Pruning is seldom, if ever, needed if the rhododendron has been sited to fit comfortably into the landscape. But, if it is done, it should be done by mid Spring so the new growth will be completed and "hardened off" before mid Fall.
Occasionally, pruning may be necessary to remove dead or damaged stems in which case, the stem should be cut back to the prior stem or until live wood is found. This will provide a stimulus for new growth .
If the plant is getting too leggy, shaping may be done in the Spring immediately after blooming. Pruning should be done approximately one inch above the dormant buds. Also, you may consider moving the plant to a location where it can receive more light.
To encourage branching in young, upright plants, break out the single terminal shoot just as growth starts to push in the Spring.
Rhododendrons are relatively free of pest problems; but in some areas, certain insects and plant diseases may need to be controlled. Because of local conditions, and the restrictions on chemical pesticides, ask your certified nurseryman or consult your local County Extension Agent.
Certain varieties of rhododendrons are more susceptible to pests or diseases. Therefore, your best option may be to destroy the plant and get another variety.

Whole grain cornmeal has a fuller flavor than regular cornmeal milled from degerminated corn. To determine what kind of cornmeal a package contains, look closely at the label.
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar plus 2/3 cup granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons orange zest, grated
- 1 1/2 cups dried apricots (10 ounces)
- 2/3 cup orange juice
- 2 cups unbleached all-purpose flour (10 ounces)
- 1 cup fine-ground, whole-grain yellow cornmeal (4 1/2 ounces)
- 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon table salt
- 2 large eggs
- 1/4 cup packed dark brown sugar
- 8 tablespoons unsalted butter (1 stick), melted
- 3/4 cup sour cream
- 1/2 cup milk
In a food processor, process 2/3 cup granulated sugar and 1 1/2 teaspoons grated orange zest until pale orange, about 10 seconds. Transfer to a small bowl and set aside.
In a food processor, pulse the dried apricots for ten
2-second pulses, until chopped fine. Transfer to a medium microwave-safe bowl; add the orange juice to the apricots, coverthe bowl tightly with plastic wrap and microwave on high until simmering, about
1 minute. Let the apricots stand, covered, until softened and plump, about 5 minutes. Strain the apricots; discard the juice.
Adjust the oven rack to the middle position and heat the oven to 400 degrees F. Spray a standard muffin tin with nonstick cooking spray.
Whisk the flour, cornmeal, baking powder, baking soda and salt in a medium bowl to combine; set aside. Whisk the eggs in a second medium bowl until well combined and light-colored, about 20 seconds. Add the remaining granulated and the dark brown sugar to the eggs; whisk vigorously until thick and homogenous, about 30 seconds; add the melted butter in 3 additions, whisking to combine after each addition. Add half the sour cream and half the milk and whisk to combine; whisk in the remaining sour cream and milk until combined. Stir the remaining orange zest and strained apricots into the wet ingredients. Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients; mix gently with a rubber spatula until the batter is just combined and evenly moistened. Do not over mix. Using an ice cream scoop or large spoon, divide the batter evenly among the muffin cups, dropping it to form a mound. Sprinkle a portion of orange sugar over each mound of bater. Do not level or flatten the surface of the mounds.
Bake until the muffins are light golden brown and a skewer inserted into the center of the muffins comes out clean, about 18 minutes, rotating the muffin tin from front to back halfway through the baking time. Cool the muffins in the tin 5 minutes. Do not invert the baked muffins; use a paring knife to lift the muffins from the tin one at a time and transfer to a wire rack. Cool the muffins 5 minutes longer; serve warm.

PEINE with new management board
Wilhelmshaven, Germany. The German clothing manufacturer Peine, well known for the brands Barutti and Masterhand, has got a new CEO.
With Ben Zhang (36), now a member of the Chinese Shandong Ruyi Technology Group shoulders the responsibility for the German company. The Chinese group has acquired 51 percent of the shares in the company in January. Ben Zhang will implement the strategic targets of the chief partner and he will take the responsibility for the finances.
Ben Zhang is represented in the Ruyi's management since 15 years and he assumes the function of the CEO from Jan D. Leuze. Leuze as the second-largest shareholder will keep his shares in the company and will continue to support the company. Leuze: "After acquiring one of the worldwide biggest textiles group as a shareholder for the Peine Company, I can calmly hand over the responsibility. Ruyi is standing behind Peine with a hard letter of comfort, so I can concentrate on my other investments now." Jan D. Leuze is shareholder of Peine since March 2013 and he has initiated the deal with Ruyi end of the last year. The Chinese group has a turnover of about $5bn and 60,000 employees worldwide. Leuze: "The Joint Venture with Ruyi is the best prerequisite for a stable and dynamic growth of Peine."
Further changings in the management structure are not provided. Shandong Ruyi emphasized that Peine retains its operational independence while Ruyi strengthens Peine with financial power. The hard letter of comfort from June 2014 will guarantee the payment of all current and future liabilities.
Even in the future the Peine production focus will still be in Europe. The two brands Barutti and Masterhand can concentrate on their core competences as there are quality, reliability, excellent fit and price-performance ratio, say company sources.

Snowboarders Respond to Shaun White's Slopestyle Exit
Although it's better to have a healthy Shaun White in the stunt ditch, rather than lose him entirely there still plenty of reason to consider this a total dick move.

Wednesday afternoon I caught up with Taylor Ogilvie, General Manager at Vail Resorts for Mt. Brighton.
Earlier today I had a chance to speak briefly with Liko Smith's personal assistant, Dana Telles, who is working with Liko on the RoK at Sugar Loaf development.
The text of this Q&A is presented with minimal editing and without editorial commentary.
From talking with them over the past year or so it's pretty clear they are passionate about what they're doing, but also they have a unique approach to the business side of things and a focused philosophy. Here's the Q&A with all the details on the who what & why of No Way! Snowboards.
Next up in the Get Local series is Rhythm Snowboards out of Massachusetts. After playing phone tag for a few days I was able to sit down and chat with Matt, one of the owners/founders of Rhythm Snowboards and get the scoop on who they are and what they're doing.
Rob Foy, owner of Blank Snowboards took some time to answer the who, what, why and how of Blank Snowboards, here's what he had to say
Homewood Snowboards out of Pennsylvnia was first in line with 2 snowboards sent our way. We've already ridden one of them and will be riding another one later this week with reviews to follow. In the meantime, here is a little Q&A with Homewood Snowboards.

SW Florida weather: Cool front brings lower humidity
After several hot and humid days, a pleasant change is in store for our Tuesday thanks to a rare mid May cool front that passed through Monday.
Our day will get off to a nice and refreshing start as temperatures have dipped into the upper 50s inland, with lower to middle 60s along the urban corridor. Mostly sunny skies will continue throughout the morning hours leading to a bright and sunny afternoon. Despite the passage of a weak cool front, daytime highs will climb into the middle 80s; but with lower humidity it will feel much more comfortable outside today.
As a drier air mass settles in, our nights will stay a bit cooler. Overnight, temperatures are projected to dip into the lower half of the 60s under mostly clear skies.

Printing custom paper size on Officejet 6700 prints off-center
Windows 7
Office 2010
I'm printing on half-size paper 5.5 by 8.5 inches. The text is centered on the paper in portrait mode.
In Office 2010 the size is "Custom".
In HP Printer Assistant the size is "Statement".
When I place the paper in the print feed, narrow end first, I adjust the paper guide. The two sides move towards the center to fit the 5.5 width of the paper.
When I print, the print is off-center. The print is off the left side of the paper and there is about a 2-inch margin on the right.
I don't think I'm doing anything wrong. The Print and Scan Doctor says I have the latest driver.
This must be a bug. Is there a work-around?

With this being said, I would suggest you try using an alternate driver, follow instructions as listed below.
1. Click on the Start menu.
2. Click on Devices and Printers.
3. Right-click on your printer.
4. Select Printer Properties.
5. Click on the Advanced tab.
6. Click on New Driver.
7. Click Next.
8. Select HP from the first list.
9. Select Deskjet 990c or the Deskjet 9800 from the second list.
10. Click Next.
11. Click Finish.
12. Click Apply.
13. Click OK to close the window.
Please let me know if using one of these drivers allows you to perform the task at hand.
I work on behalf of HP
Re: Printing custom paper size on Officejet 6700 prints off-center
I didn't download the drivers that are for different models than my printer. I was afraid of what changes they might make to my printer.
I did use the info you provided. You mentioned A5 paper which is almost the same size as I wanted, so I cut my regular paper to that size and it works fine.
My comments:
I'm upset that HP would allow the half size of A4 (the A5) but will not allow the half size of the US standard letter-size paper.
I have been a long-time user of HP printers. My previous one didn't last as long as I thought it should, but I still went directly to an HP printer to replace it. Please know that in the future I will research printers rather than going directly to HP. The previous one did not serve me as well as it should have and the current one is not serving my needs.
I appreciate the help that you gave me but I'm sorry that it had to be a workaround to a defect. I hope someone will let me know when there is a new driver for the 6700 that will fix this defect.

Our neighbor to the north has a special home in H-Town at the Maple Leaf Pub. Owned by a hockey-loving husband-and-wife team, the Midtown-set bar draws sports fanatics and young professionals hoping to catch the Calgary Flames game—NFL, college and NBA games get airtime here, too—on one of Maple Leaf's six plasma TVs.
Hockey paraphernalia (jerseys, autographed flare and photos) adorn the walls, but the real pièce de résistance has to be the pub's penalty box, where unruly patrons are invited to take a time out. And to keep patrons entertained between periods, Maple Leaf offers free Wi-Fi, dart boards and a hearty selection of classic board games including Connect Four, Scrabble and Chutes & Ladders.
The pub offers a solid mix of draft beers like Stella, Woodchuck and Labatt, as well as several bottled varieties of Canadian, Texan and American brews. Stop by for daily happy hour, drink specials and a tempting steak night on Thursday nights.


text: October 22, 2012 | Hugh Rienhoff has found the gene responsible for his daughter's extremely rare condition. Bea Rienhoff's condition stumped doctors and led her father on his own quest in 2007 (see, Hugh Rienhoff's Voyage Round His Daughter's DNA). In 2010, Rienhoff identified a point mutation in the gene for copine-1. He explained his process and findings to Bio-IT World (see, Hugh Rienhoff Cops a Candidate Gene in His Daughter's DNA). Then, he wasn't willing to pin full responsibility on the gene. "Obviously I can't say that [this gene] is it. That would be ridiculous, and I'd be stoned by the genetics community if I made such a statement. Nevertheless, I think it is a strong candidate." At an Open Science Summitt on Saturday, however, he was more bold. "We found it. We found the gene," he said. "It's very satisfying." (see, Open-source science helps San Carlos father's genetic quest at SiliconValley.com).

Beloit, WI -- The Beloit College Women's Tennis team danced around the rain and finished up their first three days of the 2011 season with a pair of wins on Saturday, topping Mt. Mary College 5-0 in a rain-shortened match before taking out UW-Stout 8-1 at Boylan Tennis Center in Rockford.
In the first match against Mt. Mary, the Bucs swept through the Doubles and got the first two Singles matches in the books before the rain came and the match was called.
Against UW-Stout the teams were forced to move to the indoor courts in Rockford. But Beloit didn't miss a beat, sweeping through the Doubles and taking five of the six Singles matches for the big win.
Back on Friday, the Buccaneers suffered their only loss so far this season, falling to UW-La Crosse 9-0.
The squad has one more match left on the holiday weekend, hosting Wisconsin Lutheran College on Monday at 4:00 p.m. at the Strong Complex Tennis Courts.

It's been a year since Dr. Husami's death. He was my doctor for over 25 years; a doctor's doctor who saw me through fertility treatment, a high risk pregnancy, the birth of my daughter and at the end helped me with menoupause.

i saw Dr. Husami at American Fertility Services. this is a great team, and everyone in the practice from all the doctors to billing to blood drawers was knowledgable, sensitive, professional and unbelievably kind. i can't recommend this practice enough! fertility treatment is so stressful and they really helped to smooth the road. i am really grateful i found them.

I was sent to Dr. Husami by my gynecologist. I was impressed by the time he took to explain what our options were given the type of coverage that we had. Dr. Husami was able to answer any concerns we had clearly and the fact that I was able to voice those concerns without feeling rushed made a great difference. We are now 7 weeks pregnant thanks to the team of doctors' and nurses efforts.

If your CEL has illuminated, it is more helpful to know WHY it has lit up instead of just guessing at the problem... How do you find out what the error is? Well you will need a short peice of wire or a paperclip.
On the passenger side of your car, under the dash beneath the glove box, you will find a green cover above the kickpanel that houses a blue connector that has two wires.
That you need to do is turn the ignition off, and using the piece of wire or paperclip, jump the blue connector so that you connect the two wires together. Basically stick one end of the paperclip or peice of wire into one prong on the connector and stick the other end of the paperclip or wire into the other prong.
Once you have done this, turn the key to the IGN position and watch your CEL light. It will illuminate in a series of flashes.
You will notice that there will be LONG flashes and SHORT flashes. All of the ECU trouble codes are two-digits. LONG flashes determine the TENS digit by the number of times it flashes, and SHORT flashes determine the ONES digit by the number of times it flashes.
ie. LONG-LONG-LONG-SHORT-SHORT-SHORT-SHORT-PAUSE
is the trouble code: 34
3 LONG flashes followed by 4 short flashes, then a long pause. If that is the only code the ECU is throwing, then the code will simply repeat until you remove the key. If, however there are more than one ECU error code, then you will see a different series of flashes followed by the long pause. Once all the ECU codes have been displayed, they will continuously cycle until you remove the key.
ie. LONG-LONG-SHORT-PAUSE-LONG-LONG-LONG-LONG-SHORT-SHORT-SHORT-PAUSE
is the trouble code: 21 and 43
Once you have determined the codes, you can simply remove the paperclip or wire from the connector and replace it back in the green housing.
So now you have the codes, what good are the numbers? What do they mean? Refer to the TROUBLE CODES section.
peace an' luv-
I did just this today and it did not work? Any reasons? (i used a paperclip)
My CEL is on, but is only on after the car is driven several miles. Will this paperclip test work even if the CEL is not on? Should I do it while the car is running since the light goes away after the car is off and only appears once I drive a little? Thanks
if you put the paperclip and test it when the car is turned on but not driving the cel should still flash

Sorry to bump an old thread, but I just saw this website (and discussion) today.
I have a '96 del Sol, and when looking at the codes, notice the del Sol isn't on there. Would the Civic codes be "interchangeable" so to speak? I know the del Sol was at one point at least the Civic del Sol, but I can't recall if that was for all four years of production, and don't know if that really has any bearing in any event.
Most places have the Del sol listed separately than the civic... they are different i guess, but the codes might be same...
- 95 Gsr - Sold 00 em1 - Stolen
- 96 Ek - Sold 99 Gsr - Totaled
- 93 EGsr - Sold 92 GS(gsr) - Stolen

Thanks. I am just going to take the car to the dealership, I am (or at least, should, and dang well, BETTER BE) covered under the extended emissions warranty.
codes are the same for the sol. The engines and ecus are the same (for the most part).
HELP! i did the paper clip thing and made my car engine light flash the code, but i cant really tell what it is, i think it might be code number 70, anyway i took a video of it, can anyone help!! please http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iYsAaw-CpPA
My Car is a 1997 honda civic si vtec (canadian), or 96 civic ex if your in the states i believe.

yep thats a 70, 7 long flashes and no short ones
lol so a code 70 on my car apparentley means that a malfunction happened in my auto transmission system while i was driving, should i get it checked out? it runs fine now...
i had question about my cars odb, the check engine light came on while i was driving down a ruff rocky dirt trail, the car still seemed to run okay so the next day i reset the battery, and then check engine light went off, i was just wondering that if there really was a serious problem with the car, the check engine light would just come on again after i drove it and gave it a chance to sense any problems right? and if it comes on again it means theres somthing to worry about, but if it doesnt come on again after the reset, it means the problem has probably corrected itself, and culdve been somthing like a change in gas tank pressure, or low engine coolant (I checked the coolant level and it was kind of low lol)??
basically what im trying to ask is that if there really is a problem, then the light should just come on again after a reset?
I'm having the same problem. My CEL is on. It was cleared by a mechanic but has returned. I have a 1997 Acura 2.2 CL. I checked under and to the right of the glove box and found a blue connector for 2 wires. I undid it from the bracket and inserted the paper clip. This is a picture of the blue connector.
With the clip inserted, I turned the key to IGN but there aren't any flashes. It also seems that I couldn't short out the connector. Looking through the connector as well as I could, only blue plastic was apparent.
[1] Do I have the correct connector?
[2] Have I shorted it out correctly?
[3] If so, what would no flashes mean?
Thanks for all the information on this site. First real trouble with the Acura in 120K miles except for a blocked A/C drip line that I fixed.

Should be the same for the CL...
Yes, it looks like you have the right connector... Mine on my EG civic is green, but the color prob changed with OBD-2...
You prob haven't shorted it out correctly... Just make sure the metal of the wire/paperclip is touching the metal of the wire contacts...
If you have no flashes, and you're car is running fine except for the Check engine light (CEL), than it just means you didn't short it out correctly...

Hi i Have a Honda Prelude 1997 AT.. ok 2 nites ago i got in my car and started it. and i was just sitting there warming up the car. and then out of no where the speedometer starts to go wacko its jumpin everywhere. and it was just in neutral and i wasnt even reving the motor. and then i put it in reverse . and put it in drive. and it still was going crazy. and when i put it in drive. when the speedomter go to high mph) without accelerating) it would change the gears it self.. and now that it wasnt doing it anymore. and everything was fine.. now that my speedometer is now not working. and that the engine light is on and the 'D' light is blinking. and i read that if the speed sensor is malfunctioning the vtec will not engage. i drove it earlier and i went to engage vtec but wouldnt. i thought it would be just not at the right temperature. please help.
If your speed sensor is malfunctioning, you will not have VTEC. If you have an automatic with a speed sensor malfunctioning, it probably won't shift correctly either.
If you have a speed sensor error code, you should replace the speed sensor.

ok i got the codes it threw out to me. actually i have 6 codes together... My car is a 1997 honda prelude. i swapped the motor for a JDM H22 Type S motor. on it is a A/T... ok on the Check egine light i have 3 codes
23---- i figure this is for ( Knock sensor circuit malfunction )
70---- (Automatic Transmission concerns)
i noticed the "D" light was throwing me 2 different codes tooo..
and then the ABS light was throwing 1 code
can anyone please tell me what these codes are. and are there anything i can fix it...? thanks
Hey what about an Accord LX 02? I got the same light but i have no idea where to find the blue connector to check for the code. Lookin around but can't seem to pick it out. Got anything for me?
Since it's OBD-2 I'd go to some AutoZoned-type place & have them use an OBD-2 code reader. Those codes are more specific anyway. Get the code number, not just the guy's explanation.

Thats what I was thinking of doing but then I figured why should I pay money to find out what the problem is when I can do it myself then pay money to get it fixed, you know? So does anyone know how I can get the Error Code off my 02 Honda Accord LX on my own?
Where are you? All the AutoZone/AdvanceAutoParts & places like that around here will read the error codes for free.
'03 Accord, '07 Civic
'01 Saab 9³, '05 9²x
I'm in British Columbia Canada.. I'll have to look around I guess. But thanks for the tip yea?
Does anyone know what code 41 is ? I am getting 4 long flashes and 1 short flash.
Code 41 is the heater circuit of the primary oxygen sensor.
What year/model? Often that sensor is mounted in the exhaust manifold right up front. Unplug it, look for the 2 same-color wires from the sensor. Measure resistance between them - it should be 10 to 40 ohms. If not, get a new sensor. If the resistance is OK, then post back about checking the rest of that circuit.

The price of gold and silver changed direction again and declined during the last week of November. The recent EU Summit resulted in approving the Greek bailout, which may have contributed to the rally of the Euro. Albeit it didn't seem to curb the fall of precious metals prices. Several other reports were published during last week and may have moderately affected forex and commodities markets: the U.S jobless claims declined by 23k to reach 393k; the U.S GDP for Q3 2012 was revised up to 2.7% (annual growth); new home sales edged down in October while pending home sales rose by 5.2%. These news items may have contributed to fall of precious metals during the week as these reports are mostly positive on the U.S economy.
Gold price
The prices of gold and silver changed direction again and traded up during most of the week. The week was short on account of Thanksgiving. There were, however, some reports that these parities may have gotten closer to a resolution which could be concluded next week. Moreover, the recent positive news of the rise in the manufacturing PMI (flash report) in China may have also positively affected the prices of commodities. Several other reports were published during the week and may have had a moderate effect on the forex and commodities markets: the U.S jobless claims sharply declined by 41k to reach 410k; the U.S housing starts rose by 3.6%. These news items may have contributed to modest fall of precious metals at the middle of the week.
The prices of gold and silver changed direction again last week and edged down. Moreover, the high volatility of precious metals from the beginning of the month has eased down during last week. Will this low volatility continue during this short week? This week the U.S will celebrate Thanksgiving; this could lower the trading volume in all major markets and thus may raise the volatility by the end of the week. Last week, the minutes of the recent FOMC meeting didn't reveal any information regarding the Fed's next step. Further, Bernanke's speech also didn't seem to affect the bullion market. The Euro group is likely to decide on the Greek bailout this week. During last week, several other reports were published that may have slightly affected
The prices gold and silver remained virtually unchanged on the first day of the week as the Euro, Yen and other currencies remained unchanged yesterday. Yesterday's Euro-group meeting was concluded with little headway as the EU ministers of finance approved Greece's budget but postponed its decision of approving the next loan tranche to next week. On today's agenda: European Council Meeting, Great Britain CPI, German ZEW economic sentiment, BOE Inflation Estimate and U.S. Federal Budget Balance.
On Monday, Gold remained unchanged at $1,730.9; Silver slipped by 0.25% to $32.52. During the month, gold increased by 0.69%; silver, by 0.63%.
On Today's Agenda
European Council Meeting: In the European Council
The prices of gold and silver continued last week their downward trend. Will this downward trend progress this week? The U.S manufacturing PMI edged up during October to reach 51.7%; jobless claims decreased by 9k to reach 363k. These reports may have contributed to downfall of precious metals rates. Further, the U.S non-farm payroll may have had a negative effect on precious metals prices and other commodities prices on Friday. During the last week, the Euro/USD declined by 0.83%; further, the Aussie dollar also depreciated against the USD by 0.36%. This downward trend may have contributed to the decline of bullion rates.
The main reports and events that may affect the bullion markets are: U.S Presidential elections, Euro-group meeting,

Nursing her career to health!
Grace Zhang was a physician practicing in her native Shanghai before immigrating to the United States a few years ago. After learning of the severe nationwide shortage of nurses, she changed career paths and pursued nursing at Mt. SAC.
"The Registered Nurse program was excellent and academically demanding," says Grace, who was a member of the largest nursing class to graduate from Mt. SAC in 2005. "I got so much more than exceptional medical training. Mt. SAC also taught me how to speak English, which will enable me to communicate well with the hospital staff and serve my patients better." Upon receiving her A.S. degree and passing the state R.N. exam, she started her career at Whittier Presbyterian Hospital and specialize in cardiac/critical care nursing. "I now have the confidence to be the best at whatever I do," she says.

There is little doubt that one of the attributes of a successful runner is a willingness and capacity to work hard. While some runners may get by for a while on talent, there comes a point where a runner who works harder will eventually outgun the athlete who relies on natural abilities – where "nurture" will outgrow "nature". "Coasting by" is a recipe for coming up short in many endeavors, and especially in running.
However, what is a surer path to disaster is slipping over the line between "working hard" and "trying hard". The latter implies reaching beyond your current abilities to drive quick gains, as opposed to staying within one's means to build up your ability and performance over time. It means replacing patience and perseverance with aggression and urgency.
The consequences of not knowing where this line is, and straying across it on a regular basis – or even just once for an extended period – are pretty significant.
- Injury – you can read all you want about the role of lack of strength, poor shoe selection, or genetics as a cause of injury, but the reality is that the number one condition driving injuries in runners is what I call "toomuchtoosoonitis".
- Burnout – trying to achieve a goal you aren't ready for, and training to do so, is also the quickest way to burning out, as you push your body and mind beyond what they are ready to achieve, leading to a deep sense of fatigue.
- Frustration – training harder than you should to achieve a goal you shouldn't have had nearly always leads to a sense of failure, and this can make you question your willingness to do it all again.
So what are the warning signs that you have crossed this line?
- Overreaching in your goals – while setting appropriate stretch goals can drive your growth as a runner, trying to do too much too soon can derail such growth. Watch out for setting aggressive goals with no benchmark performances (i.e., races or quality workouts) to support them, or for setting training targets based on what you hope to achieve versus what you have actually done.
- Proceeding with desperation instead of confidence- the confident runner is one who knows that an occasional missed workout, or one short of expectations, is to be expected, and who quickly moves on. The desperate runner tries to hit or, even more often, exceed all their goals on a daily basis, and gets depressed or panicked when something goes wrong. Watch carefully how you react to setbacks, as it indicates on which side of the line you reside.
- Mistaking passion for commitment – passion is a great driver, when it is allowed to simmer and grow into commitment to a pursuit over a longer time horizon. When passion trips over into obsession, you have the formula for trying too hard.
- Becoming overly focused on the short-term – when it seems all that matters is to meet the goal for this season or race, and you've lost site of the long-term horizon for your running "career", you have crossed the line.
- Your motivation starts to lag on a regular basis – everyone has lulls in their desire to train; it's a natural cycle. But when it starts to happen on a monthly basis, or after any minor setback in your training, it's time to step back and stop trying so hard.
- You are always seeking new stimulation – training plans get repetitive, it's just the nature of the beast. When you start to get restless with this, and constantly seek to overstep the plan, you've lost sight of your mission due to impatience.
If any of the symptoms above are occurring, it's time to step back and reassess your goals, to refocus on your long-term interests, and perhaps even take some time off to force yourself to break the cycle. If you can't do this, then it's likely that you'll find trouble sooner rather than later – far more than a few days off will cost you.
And this advice goes well beyond running. Think of your career, or hopefully instead of others whose careers you have witnessed. Those impatient to grow or advance too quickly soon get beyond their capabilities and run into issues that ultimately limit their performance (and career), or impact their family life. Those who seek quick fixes in their relationships, instead of investing the time to build a true understanding of those that matter, often find such fixes make things worse. And those who seek to get rich quick by blogging without building a site of value and a community with mutual interests usually end up giving up, because it just doesn't work.
Note the action words above – building, developing, investing, nurturing. These concepts take time and attention. If you are thinking instead of pushing, surging, rushing, or reaching, then you may just be trying too hard.

Capacity of Large Scale Wireless Networks Under Gaussian Channel Model

|In this paper, we study the multicast capacity of a large scale random wireless network. We simply consider the extended multihop network, where a number of wireless nodes v(i)(l <= i <= n) are randomly located in a square region with side-length a = root n, by use of Poisson distribution with density 1. All nodes transmit at constant power P, and the power decays along path, with attenuation exponent alpha > 2. The data rate of a transmission is determined by the SINR as B log(1 + SINR). There are n, randomly and independently chosen multicast sessions. Each multicast has k randomly chosen terminals. We show that, when k <= 01 n and n(s) >= theta(2)n(1/2+beta), the capacity that each multicast session can achieve, with high probability, is at least C(8) root n/n(8)root k, where theta(1), theta(2), and c(8) are some special constants and beta > 0 is any positive real number Our result generalizes the unicast capacity [3] for random networks using percolation theory.

UW coach Bret Bielema had to deal with an old cliché and time-honored debate -- perception versus reality -- during the recruitment of former North Carolina State quarterback Russell Wilson.
The Badgers have always been fair game for stereotyping.
Call it a "rush'' to judgment.
"I had to battle that because that's all he (Wilson) kept throwing in my face,'' Bielema said. "I think other schools (recruiting Wilson) were using that against us.''
"That" being what?
"We're a run-oriented school,'' Bielema said.
Well, yeah.
"Well, we're an offense-oriented school,'' Bielema countered.
That, too.
"I understand it -- I get it -- we've got good running backs,'' he continued. "But there's not a lot of people in college football over the last couple of years who have been as balanced as we are.''
That's the reality.
In 2009, the Badgers were one of only six teams in college football to average over 200 yards rushing (203.9) and passing (213.1). Florida, TCU, Stanford, Fresno State and Auburn were the others.
In 2010, the Badgers averaged 245.6 on the ground and 199.4 through the air.
It's hard to argue against that type of balance. Wilson obviously agreed.
"That's the part I think we ultimately ended up selling to him,'' Bielema said.
But there was much more to Bielema's recruiting pitch to Wilson. "You've got a chance to come in here,'' he informed him, "and you're not going to do it on your own.''
That touched all the bases, the right ones, at least; home run.
Not that Bielema would ever use a baseball metaphor.
"I was the last kid picked in baseball every time in gym class,'' he said, laughing.
Let's just say his pitch -- the one to Wilson -- was a strike.
"I believe some other people who were recruiting him,'' Bielema said, "were selling him on, 'Hey, come here. You're the man, you're going to win the Heisman and the national championship ...''
Blah, blah, blah.
Bielema picked it up from there, adding "Whereas my plan was, 'This is what we are. If you want to fit into this, I think you can be tremendously successful.'''
He also told Wilson, "If you come here and become a part of what we're doing, and buy into what we do as coaches, you're going to be rewarded for the rest of your life.''
On the other hand, if Wilson expected special privileges, if he was looking for a program where he would be bigger than the team, Bielema suggested to him, "This isn't the place for you.''
Bielema knew what he was getting, though; especially after meeting Wilson, especially after a North Carolina State coach also confirmed, "Russell is a '9' as a player and a '29' as a person.''
Near the end of the recruiting process, Wilson sent an email to Bielema.
"Coach, I want to come in and work every day,'' it read in part. "I want to take one game at a time. I want to try and do everything I can to help this football team in any way that I can.''
The fact that Wilson would choose Wisconsin over Auburn, the defending national champions, was gratifying to Bielema and his football program.
"It has been a good awakening for me to realize on a national level that we can compete with anybody,'' he said. But he cautioned, "I don't want to replace the image of Wisconsin.''
Wilson was attracted to the UW because of its family image, among other selling points.
"I'm excited to be a part of the Wisconsin family,'' he said Monday.
Bielema limited his initial comments on Wilson to a prepared statement in a press release. That was by design to give Wilson some space and his own forum to explain his decision to become a Badger.
On Tuesday, Bielema was on two local radio shows, one nationally-syndicated show and ESPN's College Football Live. He was spreading the word on how happy the Badgers were to land Wilson.
Bielema also answered questions from the local and the state media corps for 20 minutes in the lobby of the UW football offices on the eighth floor of Camp Randall Stadium.
While he was noting how Wilson is "very on-task with everything he does'' Wilson and his fiancée, Ashley, were in Raleigh packing for the move. Wilson is expected to be in Madison this weekend.
Once he's here, and clears his physical, Wilson will join the UW's summer conditioning workouts. He's also planning on enrolling in some summer school courses.
"Once he gets on campus,'' Bielema said, "our players will be the best coaches.''
That's out of necessity. The NCAA limits off-season contact between players and coaches.
Wilson has already been introduced to the skill-position players and his offensive line.
That took place on his recruiting trip to Madison.
"He had made the comment that he was really looking forward to playing behind an offensive line of our stature,'' Bielema said. "So we let him sit down and visit with the linemen.''
With a smirk, Bielema added, "I think that was a moment when he realized, 'This is a different game here' with the guys that we had walking into that room.''
Given that Jon Budmayr was the UW's starting quarterback coming out of spring practice -- replacing two-year starter Scott Tolzien -- what was his reaction to Wilson's recruitment?
"I loved Jon's reaction,'' said Bielema. "He goes, 'Coach, whatever happens, it's not going to change the way I prepare for this upcoming season.' I really think that's the way he's going to handle it.''
Wilson said Monday that he felt comfortable in Bielema's presence.
How did Bielema handle that end of the process?
"I was just me,'' he said. "The same guy I am if I'm recruiting Peter Konz out of Neenah or Lance Kendricks out of Milwaukee or Aaron Henry out of Immokalee, Florida.
"I tell them all the same thing, 'I'm going to put you in a position to win.'
"One thing I was guarded against with Russell, I didn't anoint him king of Madison. I didn't tell him that he was going to come in here and change the world.''
He just emphasized the Badgers were a great fit for his needs. Wilson agreed.
"I wouldn't have gone down this path,'' Bielema said of the entire recruiting process, "if it wasn't someone I really respected as a person that I thought could handle this situation.''
Bielema recounted how he had left the scholarship papers at home over the weekend, which resulted in an unscheduled delay early Monday morning.
The papers had to be faxed to Wilson and signed by him before it all became official.
"Left them on my kitchen counter and I had to go back and get them,'' Bielema said.
What was Wilson's reaction?
"He said, 'Coach, you've got to be better prepared than that.'
"That's how he is.''

By Miriam Zamorano. CREATED Jan 17, 2014
CAPE CORAL, Fla. - A major development in the push to legalize medical marijuana is sparking more of a reaction from voters.
While some are claiming victory in getting one step closer to making the issue one you decide on come November, others fear legalizing pot will be a dark cloud for the Sunshine State.
Supporters of medical marijuana cleared another hurdle saying they have enough signatures to get the issue on the November ballot, more than 1.1 million signatures, well more than the 680,000 required.
"It's a sign that there's a very serious interest in it. It's not easy to get the required number of signatures," said political science professor Dr. Peter Bergerson.
Russell from Cape Coral called in saying he would vote yes on legalizing medical marijuana.
"Other states have legalized it, I don't see why Florida should not be next in line," said Russell.
Another viewer supporting the movement texted, "Medical marijuana will create new revenue for the state and local governments and provide much needed relief for many people who suffer from chronic pain."
Before the issue can get on the ballot, the signatures must be certified then the Florida supreme court will have to approve the language in the amendment.
Joanne from North Fort Myers thinks it's about time voters have a say.
"It's a long time in getting here. There's a lot of seniors that would appreciate that with arthritis and sleeping and many other issues," she said.
But Jessie is concerned for the younger generation.
"I feel that legalizing marijuana will not be good for our teenagers. They become potheads and they don't focus on school," said Jessie.
Another viewer wrote, "I say no. It will become another drug like cigarettes...30-50 years from now they will create another cancer."

From the Opinion pages of the Atlanta Journal Constitution:
Shame on Fox Theatre's board
By A. Stephen Cucich
7:00 p.m. Thursday, September 2, 2010
Now, the theater's board of directors has canceled its earlier agreement and issued Patten a new lease, which could lead to his expulsion from his guaranteed living quarters on the theater's upper floors above Ponce de Leon Avenue.
Throughout his more than three decades of service to the theater, Patten was largely responsible for overseeing the rehabilitation of the dilapidated property and engaging in its massive fund-raising campaign, resulting in the building's restoration to landmark status. Today, the Fox has become one of the country's most celebrated and heavily used show places.
Beyond that, it was Patten, the Renaissance man, who personally restored the theater's mighty Möller organ and who worked hand-in-glove with the team of historic preservationists to make certain that the aesthetics of the facility were restored tastefully and with fidelity to their original design and character.
In exchange for these valuable services, Patten was awarded a permanent contract by the board of directors, guaranteeing that he would have lifelong on-site living accommodations. The document included a covenant that the lease could be terminated by a two-thirds vote from the board.
This caveat was included to protect the property in the unlikely event that he should commit a felony or otherwise bring embarrassment on the institution. Such caveats are typical for persons who receive lifetime appointments or permanently beneficial arrangements.
Now that Patten is older and the theater's success has made the property more valuable, the board has used that clause to claw back his space, claiming Patten's dwindling health as its rationale. In an effort to appease the ensuing public outrage, the theater continues to protest that it has offered Patten a new contract, but it is so crowded with onerous restrictions and untenable conditions that it is clearly calculated to assure Patten's expulsion.
Amid all of the drama of Monday night's board meeting, even though the theater was well represented by two attorneys, Patten was deprived of his legal representation, and his attorney was literally escorted from the proceedings by the theater's privately hired police officer.
It is ironic that the arts are conceptually about humanism and compassion. We look to our institutions for this sort of leadership. What has the Fox shown us here? How to kick an old man to the curb.
When our cultural institutions turn callous, it's normally the invention of a single person who is a man of esteem and stature and who is able to machinate broad support. So, to lift a line from "King Lear," "The Prince of darkness is a gentleman." He should hang his head in shame.
Finally, the Fox Theatre is one of the world's most venerable show places and it deserves our community's continued and enthusiastic support. Its board of directors, however, has chosen a blind and tone deaf path in creating this unnecessary and unprovoked issue. It needs to reverse itself immediately, apologetically and without prejudice.
A. Stephen Cucich is an arts publicist and marketing strategist who worked with the Fox Theatre during its restoration in the 1970s.

Here are just a few of the jobs you can get with this degree.
Work in the field not only to harvest timber but to lead sustainable management of the forest. Your understanding of healthy forest ecosystems will allow you to balance the needs of the forest products industry with the necessary precautions to maintain regrowth and sustainability.
Connect the many aspects of an ecosystem to best understand and maintain a healthy forest. Your desire to understand how trees adapt to their environment allows you to create solid research projects to create results used in decision making.
Lead decision making and strategy planning on land around the world. Coordinate fire control and crews, lead public education as well as help protect land from fire by providing sound information to those working on the land.
Study the effect of bugs and disease on forests. Help not only with diagnosis, but with treatment and prevention of infestations to help maintain healthier forests.
Help prevent conflict among people or within in ecosystems by applying your knowledge of these relationships to plan land use and change in an efficient and ethical way. From water availability to social conditions, you will analyze all the impacts to provide sound advice.
Oversee the supply of seedling stock for reforestation and other planting projects. Collaborate with agencies and private landowners to select seedlings to best fit a land-use need. Lead research into new varieties of stock and new methods for growing the strongest seedlings.
Use your background in forest resources to identify and take appropriate action to uphold regulations and rules on public lands. While not a law-enforcement officer, you will serve as the first response when public land is threatened.
Specialize within your forestry career to focus specifically on the development and care of forests. Work as a scientist to find the best ways of planting and caring for forests.
Work with geographic information systems within forest resources to solve problems and present data to scientists and decision makers. You may create maps, work with remote sensing and help locate and monitor specific sites for research.
Use your strong communication skills to build relationships between foresters, manufacturers and the general public. Educate others about the use of sustainable forest practices and collaborate with others to promote the forest industry.
