Riding on Thin Coatings
Just got back to my dorms after a weekend of riding at Sugarbush and needless to say I banged myself up pretty bad. Since VT is completely schitzo and decided to give us 50 degree days on Thursday and Friday, then 25 degrees with a -3 windchill @ 45 MPH on Saturday there was a lot of ice and thin snow on the mountain that day.... I spent most of the beginning of the day practicing on greens because I just learned how to carve two weeks ago in a lesson but haven't gone since. After a couple hours I decided to push myself more and hit some blues. Went on a couple and all went very well. I was fuckin pumped. Then I went on Sleeper... the only blue on Gatehouse I hadn't gone on. Half way through and all was gon okay until I reached a fork that had a "thin coating" warning in front of the sleeper trail and the other side of the fork was way too advanced for me, so I said fuck it, lets give it a try.... started off with just thin snow... still ridable... Then I hit the ice, grass and hard packed snow..The trail started getting progressively steeper and narrower. I went on my heel to avoid riding into the wooded mini cliff next to me and caught some light snow, ice or grass... Fell harder directly on my face then I ever have... thought i broke my nose, actually but I was fine (thanks to a helmet) and rode away sketchily down the last 30 ft of the trail. Now, having told that story, is it even possible to ride on such thin coatings (there wasn't much grass really, moreso just some in the corners, the rest was just thin snow and ice) or is there a certain technique to it since there is no snow for your edges to catch in...?
Thanks all.

Giovanni Frizz Be Gone Balm2.75 oz | Styler, Finisher

(Rated 4/5 based on 3 reviews) Login to add your review
This product is very good for blow drying and flat ironing your hair straight. Adds a very shiny gleam without weighing my hair down or taking away from my hair's body. It's a keeper for me.
I'm not usually much of a silicone serum gal but love this stuff. I use it when I straighten and by applying to wet hair, I'm able to get very nice, shiny, straight hair with just my dryer and big round brush. No other products or tools necessary. Protects from heat damage. Add super shine without looking greasy or laminated. Resists humidity wonderfully! (I live in coastal SC!) Smells good too. Thick consistency. If you use it on dry hair for shine, only use the tiniest amount because it can be heavy that way. My skin hates most silicone products but this doesn't break me out at all. Washes out easily with coco betaine type cleanser. Doesn't build up quickly. I used it weekly for a month and got away with mostly COwashing with the occasional coco betaine 'poo on my roots/scalp only, and finally a full coco betaine wash at the end of the month. Good quality serum. :)
I am in constant search of things that are natural ingredients and animal-friendly, and this one falls into that category (even has soy in it!). My face breaks out real easy from hair product, so I had my hopes up where this was all natural...day one it didnt really work at all. Major disappointment! I wrapped my hair up in a bun all day, slept on it, and day 2 it looked better. This product left a slippery feeling on your hand/face anytime you came into contact with it. It may work if you have thin curly hair (mine's wicked thick and dry), and one upside is it had absolutely no smell to it. This is something I wouldnt spend $8.50 on again, too much effort (and time) to make it work!!
Ingredient Attributes: straightening, detangling, frizz control, anti-humectant

The Swedish government was invited for dinner at a restaurant. The restaurant wasn't booked in advance and the dinners were heavely subsidized. It was therefore possible for anyone to partake of a three-course meal with the prime minister of Sweden and members of his cabinet. The prime minister and his cabinet members were all placed at tables of their own. After each course they changed tables so that no one would sit for too long with the same person.

Via the The Economist:
The treatment, in the early 1880s, of an Austrian hysteric called Anna O is generally regarded as the beginning of talking-it-through as a form of therapy.
But psychoanalysis, as this version of talk therapy became known, is an expensive procedure. Anna's doctor, Josef Breuer, is estimated to have spent over 1,000 hours with her.
Since then, things have improved. A typical course of a modern talk therapy, such as cognitive behavioural therapy, consists of 12-16 hour-long sessions and is a reasonably efficient way of treating conditions like depression and anxiety (hysteria is no longer a recognised diagnosis).
Medication, too, can bring rapid change. Nevertheless, treating disorders of the psyche is still a hit-and-miss affair, and not everyone wishes to bare his soul or take mind-altering drugs to deal with his problems. A new kind of treatment may, though, mean he does not have to.

- MDM2 antagonist RO6839921
An MDM2 (human homolog of murine double minute-2; HDM2) antagonist with potential antineoplastic activity. Upon intravenous administration, RO6839921 binds to MDM2 and prevents the binding of the MDM2 protein to the transcriptional activation domain of the tumor suppressor protein p53. By preventing MDM2-p53 interaction, the proteasome-mediated enzymatic degradation of p53 is inhibited and the transcriptional activity of p53 is restored. This may result in the restoration of p53 signaling, followed by p53-mediated induction of tumor cell apoptosis. MDM2, a zinc finger protein, is a negative regulator of the p53 pathway and is often overexpressed in cancer cells; p53 inhibition has been implicated in cancer cell proliferation and survival. Check for active clinical trials using this agent. (NCI Thesaurus)
Code name: RO6839921

South Butler promotes assistant to superintendent
South Butler School District's assistant superintendent is expected take over as superintendent in July.
Michael Leitera will take over for departing Superintendent Dale Lumley, who was hired by Butler Area School District on Monday.
The school board promoted Leitera on Wednesday. They also accepted Lumley's resignation and gave the go-ahead to search for a new assistant superintendent.
South Butler officials cited the desire for a smooth transition, along with Leitera's performance as assistant superintendent, as the reason for the quick decision.
"I think certainly his work with the students and staff of the district has been outstanding," said South Butler spokesman Jason Davidek. "Tonight's vote shows confidence."
The district awarded Leitera a five-year contract with a starting salary of $130,000. The district will give him a $5,000 raise when he receives his doctorate. He is enrolled in the Educational Leadership program at Youngstown State University and expects to graduate in December.
Leitera has served as South Butler's assistant superintendent since 2011. Prior to that, he was a high school principal in Riverside School District and a social studies teacher in the Seneca Valley School District. He lives in Shenango, Lawrence County, with his family.
Leitera will take the superintendent's seat July 2, the day after Lumley is set to leave.
In the meantime, Leitera said, he will work alongside Lumley to learn more about the top post.
"I think that gives us a fantastic period of time to (transition) in an efficient and measured manner," Leitera said.
Leitera plans to help the district navigate state education requirements while also meeting the needs of individual students.
In addition, he said he is looking forward to involvement with staff.
"I want to continue to support the staff here that has just done a tremendous job with embracing those initiatives and really just showing their dedication and their talent for teaching every day," he said.
Lumley will replace retiring Superintendent Michael Strutt at Butler Area.
"I seriously want to thank the board of directors who have been supportive from the very beginning," Lumley said after receiving applause from the board.

Nintendo sells 4 million 3DS handhelds in Japan
updated 07:55 pm EST, Tue December 27, 2011
Sales picking up after early trouble
Nintendo has reportedly sold more than 4 million of its 3DS gaming handhelds in the local Japanese market, according to data collected by Famitsu. The device is also said to have reached sales of more than 510,000 units for the holiday shopping week that ended on Christmas day, setting a new record for weekly sales across the globe.
Aside from hardware sales, several games for the mobile platform are also claimed to have passed one million units. Both Super Mario 3D Land and Mario Kart7 have reportedly reached the milestone during holiday sales.
Although the 3DS stumbled in the market as it arrived early in the year, the device appears to be slowly building in popularity since the company slashed the price from $249 to $169. The move was viewed as necessary to compete with new competitors in the mobile gaming arena, such as smartphones and the iPod touch. [via Siliconera]

Brentwood baseball aiming for fast start in 2013
TribLIVE Sports Videos
Brentwood's varsity baseball team is looking forward to a strong start in 2013.
Whenever the weatherman permits teams to play some games this season.
"With five players returning who batted over .300 last year, (it) should give us a good chance to get off to a good start offensivly," said Greg Perdziola, the Spartans' veteran head coach. "We have a good group of players returning."
Key returning players include Jason Pilarski (.354), a senior second baseman; Justin Bauer (.313), a senior outfielder; Derek Hogue (.355), a junior designated hitter/catcher; Justin Vickless (.320), a junior outfielder; and Connor McWilliams (.304), a sophomore middle infielder.
Also, senior pitcher/shortstop Chris Shortley (.263), senior first baseman Jake Held, junior corner infielder Jeremy Cenci and senior outfielder Brian Jowers all saw varsity playing time last year.
Shortley is expected to be the workhorse again on the Spartans' pitching staff.
He finished with a 4-4 record in 2012, with 48 strikeouts in 48 innings and a 2.19 earned run average. He was 3-1 in 2011 with 30 strikeouts in 26 innings.
"Chris is a two-year starter. He will be our go-to guy," Perdziola said. "Chris has a chance to have an outstanding year. He is a hard thrower, and has developed a good slider and curveball. When he is on, he is very hard to hit."
The rest of the team's pitching rotation is still a work in progress.
Looking to earn a spot in the rotation are juniors David Bushman, Cenci and Vickless, along with sophomores Tyler Paranzino and McWilliams.
"I like what I have seen so far, but the real test will be to see how they do in game action," Perdziola said. "The problem we run into is I am not sure how many nonsection games we will get in due to the weather; and they won't be able to get that much-needed game experience prior."
Defensively, the Spartans have experience in the middle infield with Shortley, Pilarski and McWilliams, as well as with Vickless in center field.
Hogue appears ready to take over as the team's starting catcher.
"Due to the weather, we have not been able to practice outside on the field, which makes it difficult to evaluate players," Perdziola said. "Most teams are in the same situation, but there is only so much you can do in a gym."
Other players trying to earn varsity playing time in 2013 include juniors Sean Cloonan (infield) and Brent Pavlik (outfield); along with sophomores Nick Balkovec (C/OF), Nathan Christopher (IF/P), Andrew Gazzam (IF/P), Tyler Jorgonson (C/OF) and Brendan Mulholland (IF).
Top freshman prospects include Nick George (IF/P), John Fox (IF/C), Sean McGlaughlin (IF/P), Ryan Yarsky (IF) and Brandon Mayfield (IF/P).
Brentwood lost four senior starters to graduation from last year's 11-7 squad, which just missed out on a WPIAL playoff spot. They are catcher/pitcher Steve Krzyzanowski, shortstop Spencer Hubsch, first baseman Matt Stein, and outfielder Trevor Wosko.
Krzyzanowski was one of the better hitters in the WPIAL for the second straight season. He led the Spartans with a .556 batting average and 22 RBI.
Krzyzanowski paced the team's pitching corps with a 5-0 record and 2.03 ERA.
"He led the team in batting, and was solid behind the plate," Perdziola said.
Hubsch complemented Krzyzanowski offensively thanks to his .448 batting average and team-leading 20 runs.
The Spartans are competing in a new section this season. Section 1-AA opponents consist of Avonworth, Carlynton, Freedom, New Brighton, Quaker Valley, Seton-La Salle and South Side Beaver.
"I am looking forward to playing in a new conference," Perdziola said. "All the teams seem to have a history of being pretty good teams.
"Our goals are always the same, to make the playoffs and win the section."

Mississippi Hunter Education
Hunter Education works. Since 1950, when formal hunter safety
programs were introduced, the number of hunting and
firearms-related accidents has declined dramatically nationwide. In
Mississippi, we know that our hunter education efforts have reduced
firearms accidents and saved lives. The Mississippi Department of
Wildlife, Fisheries, and Parks offers hunter education classes free
of charge at locations across the state. The hunter education
course includes 10 hours of instruction, including live
shooting. To obtain hunter education certification,

text: Dear JavaRanch, My name is Mary and I own my own hiking trail in a private park just south of Denver, Colorado. People like to come to my trail to run, walk, hop, skip, and jump. The park that holds my trail allows pets but the humans on my trail aren't cleaning up after their dogs. Gross! I decide I don't want to allow dogs (or any other pets) on my trail anymore. How do I fix that? I need a constraint for my trail! So I set a constraint that only allows members of the "human" role. Wonderful! No more dog poo! A month later I start getting complaints from many of the older folks who walk my trail. They say that a lot of rowdy kids have caused problems with their running, hopping, skipping, and especially jumping! Bummer. Now I need to prevent run, hop, skip, and jump travel-methods on my trail. My previous constraint applied to all methods of travel because I didn't specify any. Humans were allowed to travel however they wanted. So I added to my previous constraint the travel-method of "walk" so that humans could only walk on my trail. No running. No hopping. No skipping. And certainly no jumping! Feeling pretty good about myself I took a vacation to Mexico for a couple weeks. But during my first day there, while working on my tan and sipping on a margarita, I received a phone call from the park ranger who said, "Mary, you're not going to believe this but I swear I just saw some dogs on your trail running, hopping, skipping, and dare I say... jumping!" My heart fell into my stomach as I realized how much poo I'd have to clean up when I get back. What did I do wrong? What can I have the park ranger do to fix it? Don't you have any good ranch hands that can help me solve this? Sincerely, Mary Gotrubble

Artemis Racing launches in Valencia
Thursday wasn't the first day the AC45 yacht of the 34th America's Cup Challenger of Record was sailing here in Valencia but it was the first time the Swedish team opened its base and allowed media and guests to watch the entire procedure of the wing being mounted on the catamaran as well as the actual launch on the water.
The AC45's are, at least they are supposed be, one-design yachts and they have been sailing for a number of months now, so it wasn't an unusual and extraordinary peak Paul Cayard let us have. However, at least for me, it was the very first opportunity to have a very close look at the yachts marking this 'new' America's Cup.
Artemis Racing are headquartered right here in Valencia, inside the base Areva Challenge used in the 32nd America's Cup, and according to the brief speech by Bob Billingham, the team COO, approximately 90% of its personnel is also based here. We were free to wander around and take any shot of the yacht and her wing, from any angle we wanted, and as a result, we'll have many detailed photos.
Thursday is the third day of sailing for Artemis and their schedule is to continue until the 22nd of July before packing up and heading by road to Cascais, where they are epxected to arrive on the 25th. According to skipper and helmsman Terry Hutchinson, the first two days have been very productive, Wednesday in particular when they had a nice thermal breeze between 15 and 20 knots. The usual day's schedule calls for 5 hours of sailing, between 1pm and 6pm, when the summer thermal breeze in Valencia is at full swing.

Artemis took the decision to have the European launch of its AC45 yacht in Valencia many months ago when, according to the 34th America's Cup rules, training in Cascais was limited to just 3 days prior to the event. However, it seems that the poorer teams objected to that since it would have been impossible for them to set a base in Valencia, or any other place, given the cost it would have entailed. As a result, America's Cup Race Management relaxed the rules and made training in Cascais free. Still, that decision was apparently taken too late for Artemis to radically change their plans. Cascais is approximately 900km from Valencia or 2 days by truck. If one adds the 3 days necessary for all the equipment to be packed and then 3 days to be unpacked, Artemis will probably have one week less sailing preparation in Cascais than the other teams already there.
Artemis Racing launches in Valencia
The wing mounting process was fairly straightforward and took exactly 14 minutes, from the moment the wing was rolled off the shed until it was firmly on the platform. It then took the shore crew another 5, more or less, minutes of preparation for the launch while the actual launch took less than 3 minutes. It is true though that conditions were benign this morning. When the process started at 10:30am there was at most 2-3 knots of breeze inside Port America's Cup, coming head on. It will surely be a very different task with 20 knots of wind, coming from behind and pushing the wing out. Even with that extremely gentle breeze, the wing has the tendency to do what it is supposed to do, fly.
For that reason, they have set a temporary mooring buoy some 20-30 meters from the dock and the Artemis AC45 will spend her Valencia nights there, only to be taken out every 3 nights, if needed. It seems that this will also be the setup in Cascais and once launched, the racing yachts will not go out, unless imperatively needed.

Mel B banned from Australia's Got TalentComment on this story
London - Mel B has been banned from starring in 'Australia's Got Talent'.
The former Spice Girls singer was due to take on the role of judge in the channel Nine talent show, but a judge has now ruled an injunction to prevent her from working for any Australian TV network other than Seven.
The feisty star has been embroiled in legal drama since 'X Factor' channel Seven's rival network Nine poached her for their similar show, despite signing an exclusive contract with Seven until January 31, 2014.
According to the Sydney Morning Herald newspaper, Justice David Hammerschlag said on Thursday (18.04.13): "This matter concluded that Seven is entitled to injunctive relief. Seven was keen, and I accept remains keen and willing, to employ Mel in the manner originally contemplated. The problem is with Mel.
"Under the agreement, Mel has an obligation to provide her exclusive services to Seven and Seven is entitled to her performance of this obligation. I see no reason why she should not be ordered to keep her word that she would not work for anyone but Seven in Australia in 2013."
It was revealed in court that Brad Lyons, the head of production at Seven, was told by Mel's husband Stephen Belafonte she would not be returning because she was having custody problems and couldn't fly her kids out to join her in Australia.
Mel claimed her ex Eddie Murphy - with whom she has daughter Angel Iris - refused to sign a consent form which would have allowed her to get an Australian VISA.
The outspoken star will have to be replaced on 'AGT', while it is not yet known whether she will return to 'The X Factor'. - Bang Showbiz

The psychiatric service offere by most asylums is pretty uniform, lock them up, give them tablets and councelling, and try to convince them it is all pretend and they're not really Napolean, Julius Ceasar, Queen Victoria or most unbelievably of all... A PROFESSIONAL WRESTLER?
Sometimes of course these delusions go to deep for anything to work and most importantly for the psychiatrist be be arsed any more, when you have Adolf Hitler and Gengis Khan plotting to escape there is only so far that mininum wage pay check makes you bother about doing your job properly while trying to keep your own sanity.
So in the Michigan Department of Community Health (MDCH) ran psychiatric unit we are currently in things are mor the most part played pretty loose, the staff do their job with just enough effort to keep things in check, without actually making a difference to the sanity of their charges, and the nuts get more insane with each day.
And it is in the middle of this that we see a familiar figure, dressed in the regulation white surgical gown, is Omen, former wrestler, and current patient at this unit. No one, even Omen himself doesn't know how in the fuck he ended up here; the last thing he remembers is walking into the dressing room to prepare for a match and then nothing, he woke up here with a sore arse (where he had been drugged to subdue him), and the feeling that something was definately not right.
That was five months ago, five long months of protestinghis innocence, trying to explain and coax the doctors to let him out, and many more jabs up his arsehole that he now considered himself half wrestler and half fucking pin cushion.
Omen was mad, who wouldn't be, the problem being that when he said he was mad (angry) the doctors would nod their heads and say yes we know your mad (insane) and give him more drugs. Now the drugs he didn't mind but it was the injections in his butt that were really pissing him off, he got violent to complain, he got more injections.
In the end of course, he couldn't be bothered arguing, admittedly the food wasn't great but what the hell, he was getting it free, free roof over his head, free everything. Then one night they were allowed to watch television and as he sat down only to be confronted with the familiar faces of UWF's roster in a promo for their latest pay per view event.
Maybe it was all he needed to break him out of his malaise about doing nothing for so long, or maybe it was the fact that Cleopatra had asked him to look at her asps that had finally made him wake up, smell the coffee and realise he was in a fucking mental instituin, and was actually happy to be here.
That was three weeks ago, since then he'd tried to do everything he could think of, reason with the doctors, and... well that was pretty much it as far as his plans went, so desperate was he that he persuaded the two nut jobs who thought they were Hitler and Ceasar that maybe escape would be a great idea (he also worried that he had been here too long when he started putting on a faux german accent to speak to the guy who thinks he is Hitler)
Things were not going well, he wanted to annexe the dining room with the rec room first, while Ceasar had now decided he was Nero (before setting fire to the dustbin while pretending to play the fiddle). Everything had gone wrong, there was only one option.
And that is to go speak to the Psychiatrist again, but what could he say to make her change her mind and see sense or check what he was telling her to realise he was telling the truth? There was only one option....

Green Bay Packers cornerback Tramon Williams gives a thumbs-up Tuesday during training camp practice at Ray Nitschke Field. / H. Marc Larson/Press-Gazette Media
While the chances of Tramon Williams suiting up in Thursdays preseason finale against Kansas City appear minute, the 30-year-old cornerbacks return to practice couldnt have come with better timing for the Green Bay Packers.
Williams practiced in pads for the first time on Tuesday after missing nearly a month because of a bone bruise he suffered on July 26 during the second day of camp.
The former Pro Bowler is at a point in his career where a full slate of on-field reps during preseason arent completely necessary, but his return to practice this week has afforded the Packers a barometer to judge if hell be ready for the regular-season opener against San Francisco on Sept. 8.
Williams was limited to positional work and scout team reps in his first practice back in shells on Monday before testing well enough to advance to padded practice on Tuesday.
Theres still more information to be collected as the team aims to bring Williams back at a slow pace, but he passed the eye test for both cornerbacks coach Joe Whitt and defensive coordinator Dom Capers.
I think everybody wants to know where the knee is and with the workload can it withstand one, two, three days and not swell up on him, just to know where it is, Whitt said. Mentally, I know hes sharp. Hes in my meetings, hes taking tests. You want him to see routes, so he can get used to seeing them and doing those things again, but the main thing is the knee and will it be able to withstand the pressure of a game? Thats what were trying to see with that.
Williams didnt want to go as far as to say hell play against the 49ers when addressing the media on Monday, but said it was a definite possibility.
Capers saw his involvement on defense on Tuesday as a sign that goal is certainly attainable.
I think its been good Tramon has been able to get back on the practice field the last couple days and get work, Capers said. To me, thats the first phase. I feel a lot better about him doing that than if we came out on Monday or Tuesday and that was his first work back. I think thats part of the process working your way back. He got off to a really good start and then got hurt early, so he missed a lot of time here, but its been good to see him out there the last few days.
Injuries to Williams and second-year cornerback Casey Hayward have resulted in rookie Micah Hyde leading the defense with 156 snaps in three preseason games.
That trend likely could continue against the Chiefs with Hayward still out and James Nixon (ankle, knee) and Jarrett Bush (ankle) still out.
If Hayward isn't ready for the regular-season opener after aggravating the pulled hamstring that sidelined him for the first 3 1/2 weeks of camp, all indications are 21-year-old rookie out of Iowa would be the next to step in.
I think its been good because Micah has probably done more for himself this season just to show that the play style that he plays with he plays hard. He can really tackle, Whitt said. The willingness to go in there and hit it and hit it without fear, Ive been impressed with that. Hes played over 150, 160 snaps As a rookie you want to get those guys as many snaps as you can if theyre going to be available for the first game.
Hes a guy who is in the mix for playing in the first game, so he cant get enough and Im going to give him as much as I can.

Northern Fury left to lament errors after falling 3-2 to Sunshine Coast Fire.
- From: Townsville Bulletin
- May 19, 2014
NORTHERN Fury coach Ian Ferguson says his side are their own worst enemies after giving away soft possession to fall to their second home loss in five days.
Two goals in the final 10 minutes closed the gap but it wasn't enough to stop the Townsville side falling 3-2 to the Sunshine Coast Fire.
The Fury were hit by injury before the game with centre back Ari Isman (knee) and midfielder Corey Waples (foot) ruled out and the Fury's luck got worse in the first half as ever-consistent right back Caleb Hobson dislocated his kneecap in a tackle.
Captain Jacob Crowley, a holding midfielder, played in the back line as the Fury made some makeshift changes.
But that doesn't provide an excuse for giving the ball away in key areas just as they did in a 4-1 loss to Harimau Muda on Wednesday, Ferguson said.
"We gave the opposition too much time, too much respect and don't squeeze them quickly enough and let them dictate the game," he said.
"The goals we lost were our own self doing.
"We've done the exact same thing as what we did on Wednesday and lost a goal as we play a ball through the middle and they go up the park and score a goal where there was no need to do that.
"It's disappointing that we're making the same silly mistakes and we're getting punished.
"Other teams make mistakes and we don't crucify them so it's disappointing."
The Fire scored two quick goals and led 2-0 at the break and despite an improved second half, they added to their advantage.
In-form striker Braedyn Crowley was at the heart of the Fury's revival, running across goal before thumping home into the bottom left corner with eight minutes left to play.
It was his 13th goal of the season.
Two minutes into added time, Robin Edwards lobbed a ball for the striker to run on to, and while his first effort was blocked, he beat his defender and laid off for Joe Thornton to drill it home.
Ferguson expected Waples would be fit to play next week in the Football Queensland Cup match against the FNQ Heat, which would set the Fury up with a golden opportunity to make the main draw of the FFA Cup, while Isman (two to three weeks) and Hobson are expected to be out longer term.

Looks like we won the second half, at least! And that's somewhat promising.

Photoluminescence characterization of LiZnVO4 oxides by the vibrating milled solid-state reaction was investigated in this work. The products were characterized by X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, photoluminescence spectroscopy and absorption spectra. The excitation wavelengths associated with charge transfer bands of [VO4]3− are located at 355 nm. The photoluminescence results reveal that the sample prepared at 500 °C exhibits a broad and strong bluish green emission peaks at about 526 nm compared with other samples. Furthermore, the visible light absorption edge of the LiZnVO4 annealed at 500 °C was located at 413 nm, which corresponded to band-gap energy of 3.0 eV.

Sorcery: News http://sourcemage.org/ http://sourcemage.org/favicon.ico 2011-09-22T18:21:56Z Source Mage GNU/Linux Redmine Sorcery 1.15.0 Released! http://sourcemage.org/news/6 2011-09-22T18:21:56Z David Kowis
Release Notes:¶

See the release notes here: [[http://sourcemage.org/projects/sorcery/wiki/ReleaseNotes1150]]

Highlights from LynxLynxLynx:¶

sorcery queue and queue-security are now much faster by avoiding disk IO (~10 times in my case) and optionally (default: VERBOSE_QUEUING=on) more verbose. It displays all the reasons why the particular spell is being put into the queue. For security updates it states if there was more than one.

as a side effect, also cast -Z is much faster when searching for possible updates (look it up, it is very handy)

partly improved resurrect: better resurrection and its integration into the casting process

a new tool (called resurrect) specifically for dealing with resurrecting (downgrades, upgrades, cache manipulation)

timing functionality. It can be accessed via gaze time, gaze time-system and their subcommands. The functions print various casting times. Especially gaze time --full can be useful for estimating future casting time.

the spell's FINAL outputs are duplicated at the end of cast

when a spell fails, a short reason for the failure is displayed in the summary

improved cleanup algorithm when a spell fails in the dependency resolution part of cast

conflicts and security questions are now asked during the dependency resolution phase

the conflicts are then dispelled right before the spell is cast or resurrected

IMPORTANT: To get any of the benefits of staging, you need to install castfs.
IMPORTANT: Don't forget there is now a new cool tool called resurrect.

This release also marks a new development stream, so if you want to work on any (new) features, the time is right. Bugzilla, users and me are full of ideas. There are already a few projects submitted to bugzilla, but most need a bit more work and polish. In any case, there's plenty of fun or painful stuff to work on and I'd gladly help with any of it.

My plan for 1.16 is to work on (more or less) what is filed on bugzilla/chillizila, especially if it has attachments. And maybe the completion of improved resurrect.

'Fierce snake' kills man in AustraliaComment on this story
Sydney -
A man has died in Australia after being bitten by one of the world's most venomous snakes - a rare fatality despite the country being home to the planet's 10 deadliest species.
Andrew Vaughan's body was found by a search party last week after he went missing while checking power lines in dense bushland near Yeppoon, 700 kilometres north of Brisbane.
An autopsy had determined that the 57-year-old died from a taipan bite, his employer Ergon Energy said.
Vaughan became separated from colleagues in thick scrub at the remote site last Thursday and the alarm was raised when he ceased responding to radio and phone contact.
"Andrew was working with another workmate and a contract backhoe operator clearing a track to get access to a pole for maintenance work to be carried out at a later time," Ergon executive Peter Billing told ABC radio.
"At some stage during those activities Andrew had been bitten by the snake."
According to an internal email from Billing to Ergon staff, Vaughan appeared to have died almost instantly and was unable to be revived when a search party of police, emergency workers and colleagues found him three hours later.
"The taipan is regarded as Australia's most dangerous species of snake," Billing wrote to staff, according to an excerpt of the email published by Fairfax newspapers.
"I urge you to treat all snakes as venomous and ensure you consider your surroundings and any potential hazards."
It is the second time in almost as many months an Australian has been bitten by a taipan - a 17-year-old survived an inland taipan bite in September north of Sydney after swift treatment in hospital with anti-venom.
The inland taipan or "fierce snake" is ranked by the Australian Venom Research Unit as the world's most venomous - a single drop can kill 100 men.
Its less toxic cousin, the coastal taipan which is native to the Yeppoon area, still packs a deadly punch; it is the world's third-most venomous snake.
According to official estimates there are about 3 000 snake bite cases in Australia every year, 300-500 of which require anti-venom treatment. An average of two prove fatal.
Australia is home to 20 of the world's 25 most venomous snakes, including the entire top 10. - Sapa-AFP

The holidays in the fall and winter are my favorite holidays. As I thought about why that is, I realized that gift-giving is low on the list of things I love about the holidays. I think the number one thing that makes Thanksgiving, Christmas, Hanukkah, and Kwanzaa so special is the emotion. Maybe it's the years of Christmas advertisements burned into my mind, but there's something in the air that just seems to make everything more joyful.
My family celebrates Christmas. We get our Christmas tree a day or two after Thanksgiving, decorate it together as a family, buy gifts for each other, go to my Aunt's annual Christmas Eve party, and then open presents Christmas morning and eat a hearty breakfast of bacon, sausage, eggs, hash-browns, and toast. This year we decided a change was needed. Instead of our traditional Christmas activities, we decided to scrap the gift-giving, forgo the Christmas tree, and forget the feasts.
These are some unconventional ideas for alternative ways to celebrate the holidays:
1. Family Outing
My family and I went on a vacation. Going on a trip with loved ones is a great way to get closer as you share new and exciting experiences together and create memories to last for years to come. I know I cannot wait to be lounging on the beach in the Virgin Islands with my family, soaking up the sun and fishing by day and having dinner by night.
2. More Than A Gift
My friend's family has a pretty interesting tradition as well. They also celebrate Christmas, so they buy a tree, invite lots of people over for a pot-luck dinner, and they give each other gifts. However, these gifts are deeply personal and often take more effort than just going to a store and buying something. Some gift examples include a photo album consisting of pictures of the giver and receiver over the years, or a song written and recorded by the giver, or a playlist of songs that the giver knows the receiver loves. All these gifts are different but have one thing in common: they transcend consumerism and touch people on a deeper level.
3. Pay It Forward
Another idea for an alternative holiday is to "pay it forward" by giving the gift of a charitable donation in the name of the person you would normally just go buy the newest gadget for. Think of the good you'll be doing if, instead of buying your 70 year old grandmother a smartphone that she will never completely understand, donate the money to Alzheimer's research. Instead of buying dad a new tie, you could buy a months' worth of dinner for a family less fortunate. If you are having difficulty coming up with a charity, the local food pantries always need help this time of year. I'm sure they would be more than happy to have volunteers.
Whatever holiday you celebrate, remember the true meaning is about celebrating with family, friends, and even the community. It's about giving back and doing something special. If you could celebrate the holidays differently, what would you do?

Session Title: Innovative One-shots Build Motivation and Currency in a Gen-Ed IST Course
How do you design introductory courses (with majors and non-majors) to achieve rigor, currency, and interest without scaring away the non-technical students? Innovative one-shots are activities that can be completed in one class session and be tailored to add innovation and freshness to the course each semester. This session describes three examples from a recent IST course: augmented reality activity, IST 110 game to explore new ed-tech tools, and Stanford University's dSchool Crash Course.
IST 110, Information, People, and Technology, is an entry-to-major course for IST majors, and also a general education course for all Penn State students. This mix of majors and non-majors creates challenges for faculty in any course. How do you design a course that is rigorous, up-to-date, and interesting without scaring away the non-technical students? Innovative one-shots are activities that can be completed in one class session and can be tailored each semester to add innovation and freshness to the course without requiring a huge course re-design. This session describes three one-shots from a recent course: augmented reality activity, IST 110 game to explore new ed-tech tools, and Stanford University's dSchool Crash Course.
Augmented reality is rated by the New Media Consortium's 2012 Horizon Report (Museum Edition) in the two to three year range for time-to-full-adoption. Our goal with this technology was to expose students to the technology and its uses in business and educational settings, while giving them a hands-on experience using a plug-in from Digital Tech Frontiers and a 3D rendering from Google Sketch-up. The activity we created was set in a business context. Students would create a video to be able to show a customer a 3D rendering of a product using a model from the Google Sketch-up 3D database and an augmented reality plug-in.
Educational gaming is another hot topic in education. We decided to use a game framework to encourage students to explore different emerging technologies in lieu of a passive demo session. Students earned points by completing different activities that encouraged interaction with a new technology while at the same time experiencing the powerful influences of game dynamics.
Stanford University's School of Design (dSchool) makes available free on the web a "crash course" of their design thinking methodology. In 90 energizing minutes, participants can experience the five elements of their design thinking model. Students gain the experience of a new way to think about innovation, customer interaction, and design through a hands-on experience that can be tailored to suit business contexts or any other creative pursuits. This was used in several campus contexts from the opening faculty meeting, to a one-shot in a contemporary business skills course, to an English composition course.
By using one-shots as a course design element in introductory courses we were able to accomplish several goals: 1) expose students to new technologies in an active way; 2) keep the course content current without a major overhaul; 3) motivate both majors and non-majors through interesting challenges. Faculty and staff were also motivated to try new approaches to teaching through the use of manageable one-shots.

It leaks a lot of coolant. Doesn't overheat. Have to add bout every 3 days getting worse. Don't know what hose is called. Chealten or Hines don't lay it out very well. Can't afford ford to do it an so far no one will work on fords. That I know. I don't want to get worked. The hose is not that long but I also don't want to f it up. Only has 77,000 miles on it. Is it a heater core hose? Can anyone tell me what that hose is an how hard it is to replace. Don't want to sound too pathetic but single mom of 3 yr old an my dad just passed away so I don't know who to ask these question to so I don't get cheated.

text: SDN Members don't see this ad. (About Ads) I did! I'm in an SAT-prep. class, but it's geared for the November test, so I've been doing some studying on my own for today. I was really surprised with the exam; it was much easier than I expected. I think out of all 10 sections, I may have omitted about 10 questions (give or take a few), which I'm pretty happy with. I had a really positive gut feeling after walking out of the classroom, so I'm enthusiastic to see my score in a few weeks. I'd be ecstatic if my score went up, especially my verbal and math (I only had an 1190/1600 on my first attempt).
