Research Paper on E-commerce wins best paper award
Best Paper Award for the Journal of African Business, awarded in 2010. Most downloaded paper in the Journal of African Business for 2008-2009.
PearlRichards congratulates its collaborators - Dr. Richard Boateng, Mr. Robert Hinson, Prof. Richard Heeks and Prof. Alemayehu Molla
Abstract: We undertook a review and classification of research on electronic commerce (e-commerce) in developing countries. We analyzed 181 articles published in a broad range of journals covering e-commerce, global information technology, and development issues. The analysis provides a roadmap that not only indicates the current state of e-commerce for development research but also identifies gaps and priorities for future research. This will be of significant value to both academics and practitioners who are working on, or plan to work on, e-commerce in developing countries. Download Citation

Associated Press
POSTED: 1:30 a.m. HST, Nov 5, 2010
Some people don't believe in the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, despite Raheem Morris' claim his team is the best in the NFC.
They are doubters despite Tampa's 5-2 record, as good as any team in the conference.
They scoff despite the Bucs' penchant for being at their best late in games as quarterback Josh Freeman, his offensive line, unheralded receivers and a big-play defense rapidly develop.
Those skeptics are the oddsmakers, who still see the Bucs as a middling team and have made them 9 1/2 -point underdogs at Atlanta in a Sunday meeting for the NFC South lead.
"This is not trash-talking. It's a mentality," Morris said of his bold proclamation. "It's a mentality before it's a reality. If you don't believe you can win, you probably won't. And I believe, and my team believes, in us."
The Falcons need to believe, too, because even with their 5-2 record, they've had one stinker (a loss at Philadelphia) and two close games at home against inferior opponents (49ers and Bengals).
Atlanta comes off a bye -- the Falcons are 11-10 after an off week -- and ranks only 27th in pass defense. It's uncertain if CB Dunta Robinson will be back after suffering a concussion in that brutal collision with Eagles WR DeSean Jackson on Oct. 17.
Bucs can make us true believers with a win. They are good enough to cover, but ...
For anyone who says the Patriots don't run the ball effectively and that their defense is in transition, look at last week's win over Minnesota. New England is a team on the rise, and it already has the league's best record. BEST BET: PATRIOTS, 28-12
After two close defeats to good teams on the road, the time has come for the winless Bills -- even if it isn't at Ralph Wilson Stadium. UPSET SPECIAL: BILLS, 14-13
As good as the Seahawks are at home, when they are this banged-up it's just not the same team. Matt Hasselbeck was dinged against Oakland, and now Charlie Whitehurst must face a defense that has knocked out five QBs. GIANTS, 27-10
Philly doesn't lose after a bye under Andy Reid, who is 11-0 in such situations. There has to be a first time. COLTS, 21-20
Once again a classic matchup, with AFC West supremacy potentially on the line. The Raiders suddenly are potent on offense, and the Chiefs could struggle to keep up in a shootout. RAIDERS, 27-21
Once a classic matchup, now a team with playoff designs against the most underachieving bunch in pro football, if not pro sports. PACKERS, 30-16
A year ago, the Bengals swept the Steelers and the AFC North to finish first. In prime time, the Steelers sweep the Bengals out of all playoff conversation. STEELERS, 20-10
Saints have no qualms about going on the road -- they routed Tampa on their last trip. Panthers don't match up. SAINTS, 27-13
With all the madness in Minnesota, getting back on the field will be a relief. Brett Favre, injuries and all, still is a far better choice than Arizona's Derek Anderson or Max Hall. VIKINGS, 23-13
Jets often play clunkers after a bye. If they lose this one, though, it's time to worry, and the Lions have plenty of bite at home. A tempting choice for upset special, but ... JETS, 14-13
If the Ravens are as good as they were pegged to be when the season began, they'll begin a string of wins here -- and hand the Dolphins their first road defeat. RAVENS, 20-13
Did the Chargers right the ship against the Titans? Have the Texans shot their load, as it seemed in the loss to the Colts? No and No. TEXANS, 27-24
Versus spread, 8-5 (overall 60-49-1); Straight up, 6-7 (overall 73-44).
Best Bet: 4-4 against spread, 6-2 straight up. Upset Special: 6-2 against spread, 6-2 straight up.

|Resonance strategies and glottal behaviour in the two main laryngeal mechanisms for professional operatic singers.
MedLine Citation:
|PMID: 18530239 Owner: NLM Status: In-Data-Review
|In lyrical singing, two principal laryngeal mechanisms are used to produce all the notes across the singer's tessitura. Laryngeal mechanisms M1 and M2 are characterised by a greater and lesser vibrating mass respectively. Different timbres between the two are at least partly explained by their different glottal behaviours. However, different adjustments of the vocal-tract resonances, which can also contribute to different timbres, may also be involved, but have been neglected. We studied seven professional operatic singers, who produced sustained vowels at the same pitch using both laryngeal mechanisms. Vocal-tract resonances were directly measured during phonation, by broadband acoustic excitation at the mouth. Glottal behaviour and laryngeal movement were measured indirectly with an electroglottograph. As expected, we measured lower values of open quotient and higher sound pressure levels in M1 than in M2. In most cases, the first two vocal-tract resonances were characterised by lower frequencies in M2 than in M1. In the singer's formant region, similar resonance-frequency values were found for both laryngeal mechanisms. The effect on the sound spectrum of an open-quotient increase together with a first-formant decrease may be modelled by source-filter theory. The theoretical and measured amplitudes of the first two harmonics will be compared.

text: Prosecutors Won't Try Notre Dame Rape Case Because Lizzy Seeberg's suicide makes report inadmissible By Kevin Spak, Newser User Posted Dec 17, 2010 1:27 PM CST STORY COMMENTS (18) (Newser) – A county prosecutor has decided not to bring charges in response to allegations that a University of Notre Dame football player sexually assaulted freshman Elizabeth "Lizzy" Seeberg—in part because Seeberg killed herself, making her statements to campus police inadmissible in court. Neither the player accused of the assault nor his friend, who sent Seeberg an ominous text message, will be charged, the Chicago Tribune reports. Seeberg reported the incident to campus police on Sept. 1, one day after the alleged attack. The next day, a friend of the player she accused texted her. "Don't do anything you would regret," he said. "Messing with notre dame football is a bad idea." Eight days later, Seeberg, a student at the neighboring St. Mary's College, killed herself. Prosecutors say the text didn't amount to criminal harassment, because "the student subjectively believed Ms. Seeberg's complaint was false, and therefore had a legitimate purpose for his text message."

HP 30-inch LCD Released
Hewlett-Packard today made its first entry into the ultra-large computer display market by posting early official details of its LP3065 computer LCD. While news of the screen appeared in advance, the latest information has revealed HP's intentions to compete in terms of both features and price. The LP3065 will sport three dual-link DVI ports, according to HP, in contrast to the single connector on both Apple and Dell monitors. Its 92% NTSC color gamut will also be complemented by a high 1,000:1 contrast ratio and a 300cd/m2 brightness. Crucially, the new design is expected to ship for $1,699 when available November 11th, placing the high-end design closer in price to Dell's $1,499 basic model.

Students cheer during an IU game in December at Assembly Hall.
In the summer of 1997, I was an unpaid intern in the office of then-Sen. Richard Lugar. It was a fairly uneventful job. Sorting mail, answering phones, standard summer intern stuff.
Occasionally we'd get phone calls from the residents of Lugar Towers, the public housing high-rise in Downtown Indianapolis that had been named after Lugar, a former mayor of Indianapolis.
A few summers before, the residents started calling the office en masse, upset that the television in the common area was on the fritz. They naturally assumed that the man whose name was on the building was the man who could fix ...

Effects of alfa-hydroxy-isocaproic acid on body composition, DOMS and performance in athletes

Journal of the International Society of Sports Nutrition 2010, 7:1 doi:10.1186/1550-2783-7-1Published: 5 January 2010
Alfa-Hydroxy-isocaproic acid (HICA) is an end product of leucine metabolism in human tissues such as muscle and connective tissue. According to the clinical and experimental studies, HICA can be considered as an anti-catabolic substance. The present study investigated the effects of HICA supplementation on body composition, delayed onset of muscle soreness (DOMS) and physical performance of athletes during a training period.
Fifteen healthy male soccer players (age 22.1+/-3.9 yr) volunteered for the 4-week double-blind study during an intensive training period. The subjects in the group HICA (n = 8) received 583 mg of sodium salt of HICA (corresponding 500 mg of HICA) mixed with liquid three times a day for 4 weeks, and those in the group PLACEBO (n = 7) received 650 mg of maltodextrin mixed with liquid three times a day for the same period. According to a weekly training schedule, they practiced soccer 3 - 4 times a week, had strength training 1 - 2 times a week, and had one soccer game during the study. The subjects were required to keep diaries on training, nutrition, and symptoms of DOMS. Body composition was evaluated with a dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) before and after the 4-week period. Muscle strength and running velocity were measured with field tests.
As compared to placebo, the HICA supplementation increased significantly body weight (p < 0.005) and whole lean body mass (p < 0.05) while fat mass remained constant. The lean body mass of lower extremities increased by 400 g in HICA but decreased by 150 g in PLACEBO during the study. This difference between the groups was significant (p < 0.01). The HICA supplementation decreased the whole body DOMS symptoms in the 4th week of the treatment (p < 0.05) when compared to placebo. Muscle strength and running velocity did not differ between the groups.
Already a 4-week HICA supplementation of 1.5 g a day leads to small increases in muscle mass during an intensive training period in soccer athletes.

This Week In EWU Basketball
|Cal State Northridge
|Friday, Dec. 6 | 6 p.m.
|Reese Court | Cheney, Wash.
|EWU Notes | CSUN Notes | Live Stats | Live Video
|EWU on Facebook | EWU on Twitter
After spending the last two weeks on the road, the Eastern Washington women's basketball team kicks off a seven-game home stand this Friday, Dec. 6, when Cal State Northridge visits Reese Court. Tipoff time is set for 6 p.m. PST.
Eastern (0-5) is still looking for its first win after facing a grueling slate of high-quality opponents in its first five games. The Eagles spent last weekend at the South Point Thanksgiving Shootout in Las Vegas, Nev., squaring off with then-No. 23/15 Iowa State and Butler in a pair of contests. EWU was upended by the Cyclones, 88-60, on Friday, Nov. 29, before falling to the Bulldogs, 74-51, on Saturday. ISU was the second top-25 team Eastern has faced this season while Butler is a member of the newly-formed American Athletic Conference, made up of a handful of ranked squads.
The Eagles' first five opponents are a combined 25-8 to start the year. Iowa State is undefeated at 6-0 while Gonzaga (5-1) and SMU (7-1) have both suffered one loss apiece. Portland is 4-2 through six games, including a win over PAC-12 member Washington. Both Iowa State and Gonzaga earned spots in last season's NCAA Women's Basketball Championship while SMU and Butler received bids to the WNIT a year ago.
Eastern is shooting nearly 41 percent this season, a mark that ranks third in the Big Sky. The Eagles are the most accurate conference team from long range, shooting a league-best 34.7 percent from downtown while making 6.6 three-pointers per game.
Junior guard Lexie Nelson averaged 15 points in EWU's two games last weekend, setting a season high with 18 points on 5-of-9 shooting against Iowa State. She made a career-best four three-pointers on just seven attempts versus the Cyclones, adding three rebounds and three assists to her impressive stat line. She followed that performance with a 12-point showing against Butler, burying a pair of triples. Nelson has made 14 three-pointers so far this season, needing just seven to crack the school's all-time top 10 list.
With the absence of senior center Laura Hughes, junior forward Melissa Williams turned in a pair of impressive performances last weekend, scoring a season-high 10 points against Iowa State before grabbing a career-high 13 rebounds versus Butler. She added eight points against the Bulldogs. Sophomore guard Hayley Hodgins finished with 16 points against Butler, reaching double-figures for the third time this season and 12th time in her career. She shot 6-of-9 from the field versus the Bulldogs, making all three of her free throw attempts.
Cal State Northridge (2-5) is currently riding a three-game losing streak, having fallen to BYU, Santa Clara and Utah State in its last three outings. CSUN has faced fellow Big Sky members Sacramento State and Montana State so far this season, losing both games by an average of 17.5 points. The Matadors shoot at a 37.7-percent clip, making just 27.9 percent of their shots from three-point range. CSUN is averaging an impressive 17.3 offensive rebounds per game, and is outrebounding its opponents by an average of 3.3 boards per game. Cinnamon Lister (16.4 ppg, 3.4 apg) and Ashlee Guay (16.0 ppg, 4.9 rpg) are the Matadors' main offensive threats while Camille Mahlknecht (6.9 rpg, 2.1 bpg) is the team's defensive anchor.

This viognier, with its cool vintage character, possesses remarkable refinement and grace. Its peach blossom scents suggest pinot gris at first, but as the wine comes up in temperature its phenolic range seems to come to life, with flavors of pear, white flowers and white peach, guided by a firm, acidity-driven line. Drinking a bit lean now, this should develop beautifully. Serve with fire-roasted razor clams.
Crisp and lively, with a shot of acidity balancing the richness in this spicy, citrusy and floral white. Sleek finish. Drink now through 2016. 574 cases made.

Helpfulness of staff
have staying with you for over 15 years and have always enjoyed our time with you would recommend and have recomended
The Caravan was lovely and clean and the beds were comfy. The site itself looks very tired and in need of a make over. They were doing some building work whilst we were there but not sure what for. We didn't use the swimming pool and we didn't eat out at the site either so can't comment on those, however neither looked very inviting. Children's play area also not very exciting.
The best thing about this site is the location. Very close to Southport centre / pier and other activities - indoor soft play and farm.
Would never stay in a silver caravan again - awful
The site was nice and the caravan interior was faultless. The exterior needs work a very large puddle outside the caravan door covered with a piece of plywood. Only other fault was my daughters brought Halloween costumes to go into club house only to be told it was ticket only and sold out. 2 very disappointed girls...

Great location. The site is being updated and is looking really nice.
The caravan was clean and the reception staff really friendly.
Did find we all ended up with bad chest due to strong smell of chlorine in the swimming pool.
Also the pool and surrounding poolside was quiet dirty and in need of a good clean.

Holiday was ok accept for forks being missing carbon monoxide alarm being faulty and gas running out night before we left to come home
Having booked a Halloween weekend away with our 4 children we were devastated to find out from a poster on the club door that the Saturday night Halloween Party had sold out before we arrived. The club was small, the amusements were not open all weekend so it was difficult to entertain our children in the evenings.
Lovely caravan, very clean- only complaint very limited time in indoor pool
good value, comfortable caravan

Very nice caravan nice and clean
Fantastic, we booked a Silver 3 but was upgraded to a Platinum which was beautiful will definitly be going again. Thank You.
There's some really comfy beds, though small. The sofa was very comfortable and the tv was very enjoyable. The caravan was well decorated, and kitchen facilities were fine. My wife felt she would have liked a wider choice of food at the cafe/bar, even if we'd had to pay a little more for that. On-site facilities could be better - the site map says there is a "play area" but we couldn't locate it.
Confirmed guest, 2015-09-28
I have been to Riverside for the past 8 years.I have seen various changes,kids clubs,character breakfasts,good family entertainment but theses are now gone.The site is lovely but in my opinion to bring families and a busy site you need more facilities.Miss the personal touch of previous manager Karen she used to check with you everything was okay and give contact details if you had any problems.

Cupertino, Calif. --February 9, 1998-- Symantec Corporation (NASDAQ: SYMC) today announced support for open application programming interface (APIs) architecture that will allow third-party software developers to integrate their tools into Visual Café for Java, the industry's leading integrated development environment for Java. Symantec's Visual Café for Java Open API architecture is designed to remain easily compatible through future releases of Visual Café for Java, with little or no dependence on internal features.
"Symantec has traditionally been associated with other exceptionally innovative companies in our industry, and our third-party vendor community in particular has played a vital role in our overwhelming acceptance by developers," said Mansour Safai, vice president of Symantec's Internet Tools division. "It's our philosophy that, by supporting these innovators for the long term, and by making room for their best work, we're ensuring that our development community continues to use the very best tools available anywhere with Visual Café for Java, now and in the future."
Symantec's Visual Café for Java Open API architecture offers a broad range of functionality. Some of the features of these Open APIs include:
"Using Symantec's Visual Café™ for Java Open APIs, PLATINUM technology can seamlessly integrate its PLATINUM Advantage solutions for application development infrastructure management with Visual Café," said Ed Miller, Senior Vice President of Application Lifecycle Solutions for PLATINUM. "These solutions include visual modeling with Paradigm Plus, business rule development with AionDS, server-side code development with SQL Station, and change and configuration management with CCC/Harvest."
"It's a great opportunity for a software company to be able to work with other progressive tools developers like Symantec™ to create a finely integrated solution for Java developers," remarked Todd Scallan, Director of Business Development for Black & White Software.

Detroit Lions quarterback Matthew Stafford (9) shares a smile during the second day of voluntary mini camp workouts at their Headquarters and training facility in Allen Park, Mich. on Wednesday, Apr. 23, 2014.

Dan Reeves was a running back with some of great Dallas Cowboys teams in the 1960s and '70s. Unlike the win-now mentality of today's NFL with rampant free agency, the league in Reeves' playing days preached patience and indulged slower progress.
The Detroit Lions and quarterback Matthew Stafford are under a lot of pressure this year. Reeves thinks that, given enough patience and support, Stafford will improve.
"When I look at the Dallas Cowboys, who I was fortunate enough to be a part of, we knocked on the door from '66, '67, '68, '69, '70 and we finally won (the Super Bowl) in '71," Reeves said. ...

Huntington, Utah (AP) The digging inside Crandall Canyon Coal Mine is on hold as safety officials try to figure out what the next step is.
Three people were killed yesterday and at least six others injured after a cave-in at the mine, where six men have been missing since a collapse on August 6.
Officials are trying to decide how to keep searching for the stranded miners and not risk the lives of anyone else. The three who died yesterday were trying to clear a long tunnel of debris left by the original collapse.
Drilling from above the mine is expected to continue on a fourth hole into the mine. But all work inside the mine itself has been suspended.

COLUMBUS -- Muskingum County Sheriff Matt Lutz emphasized to state lawmakers Thursday the importance of having an inventory of any exotic animals kept by private owners and extra fencing outside the cages in case the animals get loose.
The Ohio House agriculture committee is considering a bill that would regulate exotic animal ownership. The Senate passed the measure in April.
Ohio's restrictions on exotic pets are among the nation's weakest. Efforts to strengthen the law took on new urgency after Terry Thompson released 50 animals -- including black bears, mountain lions and Bengal tigers -- from his farm in Zanesville in October before he committed suicide. Authorities killed 48 of the animals as a public safety measure. They think two others were eaten by other animals.
Lutz told the panel it could have taken months to find all the animals had a neighbor not alerted police that evening.
"These big cats were fed enough each day to be not made starving," Lutz said. "And they were very hungry. And I think they could have traveled a long distance."
Lutz said authorities lucked out with the wet weather. Zoo officials had advised them that the big cats didn't like to roam in the rain. Authorities found a large Bengal tiger the following day in a wooded area about 500 yards from its cage. They shot the animal after trying to tranquilize it.
"Who knows how bad this could have been, how far these animals could have traveled," Lutz said.
Once out of their cages, some creatures escaped the property through a short livestock fence along the farm's pastures.
Officers' familiarity with Thompson's farm and the types of animals there helped them contain the situation, Lutz said.
The sheriff was among more than 50 people who have testified this week on the bill before the House agriculture committee. The panel could vote on the measure next week.
The Ohio bill would ban new ownership of dangerous exotic animals. Current owners could keep their animals by obtaining a new state-issued permit by 2014. They'd have to meet strict caretaking and fencing requirements, and post signs alerting people to dangerous animals on the property.
The state Department of Agriculture would maintain a shared database of the owners and their animals, and owners would also have to report to the local law enforcement. Facilities accredited by some national zoo groups would be exempt from the bill, along with sanctuaries and research institutions.
Five animals that were found in cages at the Zanesville farm and quarantined at the Columbus zoo were returned to the farm this past week.

Tine Baun's final tournament ends on finals day after her toughest match of the week ended with a victory over Sung Ji Hyun after a 76 minute marathon in their semi final. The remaining four events all have Chinese interest even with countless seeds crashing out before Sunday.
Chen Long Holds Of Jorgensen
Chen Long like Tine Baun had the toughest test of his title credentials to date with a tough two game victory over Jan O Jorgensen, even though the 2nd seed did drop a game against Boonsak Ponsana. Lee Chong Wei had a first game scare against Saensomboonsuk before securing his place in the final and his 13th meeting gainst Chen Long. The Malaysia has won 7 of their 12 encounters but it was Chen Long that came out on up in their most recent match in late 2012 at the Hong Kong Super Series.
Baun Reaches All England Final For Fourth Time
Both of the finalists defeated higher seeded opponents in the semi finals, with Ratchanok Inthanon defeating Saina Nehwal in two games after her victory over Juliane Schenk in the last 8. Tine Baun defeated Sung Ji Hyun in her semi final to set up a 5th meeting between the two, with the 18-year old from Thailand winning the last two meetings at the viagra for sale without a prescription latter half of 2012
Chinese Contingent In Doubles
China are guaranteed at least one title this week, with Wang and Yu taking on Cheng and Zhao in the women's doubles final after the unseeded pair defeated the 5th seeded Ma and Tang on route to a meeting with the world number 1 pairing. The two pairings have met five times, but the last time was in 2010 before Zhao Yunlei teamed up with Tian Qing.
Liu and Qiu defeated their second seeded pair of the week, beating Ahsan and Setiawan in three games to set up a meeting with a third seeded pair in the final. Endo and Hayakawa defeated Jongjit and Puangpuapech to reach the final against the unseeded Chinese pair. The two pairs have played each other twice, with their most recent meeting in India going the way of the Japanese pair in three games.
The Olympic champions Zhang and Zhao take on the reigning All England Champions in the mixed doubles final with both pairs coming through their semi final against Indonesian opponents to set up a seventh metting with the Indonesian pair. The Indonesian pair won their previous meeting in the Denmark Super Series Premier in two games but the Chinese pair have won four of their last six meetings.

|The safety of and the strain on the donor during thrombocytapheresis on the cell separator. A psychological study.
MedLine Citation:
|PMID: 3679529 Owner: NLM Status: MEDLINE
|The study deals with the question as to what extent and under which existing personal characteristics does thrombocytapheresis on the cell separator (Fenwal CS-3000) lead to psychological stress for the blood donor? A comparison is made with the stress experienced during the established 450 ml full-blood donation. Because of the different procedural conditions, it was postulated that the donation on the cell separator creates greater psychological stress than the established type of donation. To examine this hypothesis, a sample group of 76 cell-separator and full-blood donors were asked to complete a questionnaire concerning the stress they experienced and their attitude before, during, and after the donation. Their personalities were also examined. A control group of 45 full-blood donors was examined in the same way. No significant statistical difference was found regarding the extent of stress under both conditions of donation. These findings are verified by the general satisfaction expressed by the cell-separator donors. Although it is confirmed that the personal cost to the donor is greater, it involves, on the other hand, a greater commitment, a positive evaluation of the more intimate involvement of the donor, and an increase in self-esteem. Since it could not be proven that there is an increase in the amount of stress during cell-separator donation, it also seems plausible that no clear decrease in stress would be observed after repeated donations. On the whole, it seems that the cell separator is well accepted by the donors. The extent of experienced stress is related to the donor's habitual anxiety and negative expectations. Since negative expectations can be influenced, it is to be expected that an informative conversation in a quiet atmosphere would further decrease the stress experienced.

Pre-Test thread, for the 64kbps test

As most of you already know, I am planning to start a 64kbps public listening test in September.
So here are the planned details. Nothing is definitive so far:
The test starts at September 3rd and ends at September 14th
The codecs that will be tested are:
- Ahead HE-AAC "Streaming :: Medium" VBR profile, high quality.
- Ogg Vorbis post-1.0 CVS -q 0
- MP3pro codec in Adobe Audition, VBR quality 35, high quality, m/s and is stereo, no CRC, no narrowing.
- WMAv9 Standard 64kbps (there's no PRO version at such bitrate, AFAIK)
- Real Audio Cook 64kbps (I didn't investigate other settings yet. Comments welcome)
The samples that will be tested have been announced on this thread. If you have concerns/comments about the sample suite choice, please post there.
The test results will be calculated the same way my former tests were. I don't plan to include bitrates in the formula. Comments are welcome now (they are of no use to me after the test has been started).
I haven't decided about anchors yet (my guru is traveling ), but someone suggested me that I use Lame ABR 128 as higher anchor, so that we can verify which one of these codecs really deliver the marketing of "sounds like MP3 at half the bitrate"
Then, the lower anchor would be a standard 3.5kHz lowpass, like it is done on most formal tests at low bitrates.
So, I'd like to know your thoughts on what I planned.
Thanks for your attention;

That really sounds like a great idea to me.
(Although I didn't think about it hard enough to pick up eventual flaws in it)
Of course, the "official" 64kbps test results will be the ones featuring the "essential" codecs, and somewhere in the official page there'll be a link to a "subtest" featuring the essential codecs + additional ones.
That separation is needed because the tests can't be merged together if the amount of listeners isn't the same at each sample. To start with, the ANOVA error margin would be different for each case.
Besides, ABC/HR is limited to 8 sliders. You are already suggesting 7 codecs, not counting the anchors. Do you have any idea how to circumvent that issue? I don't think doing two separate test setups would be the right way, but that needs to be discussed. I would personally think the right way would be one test setup = essential codecs and the other = essential + additional codecs, and not one setup = essential and the other = additional. (I don't know if I'm making myself clear...)
Heh, that would make it harder for me to process the results, but I'm inclined to oblige and see how things turn out.
Comments? Ideas?

Pope Sees Peter's Path as a Lesson for All
Like Apostle, We Must Not Precede Jesus, Says Benedict XVI
| 902 hits
VATICAN CITY, MAY 17, 2006 (Zenit.org).- Benedict XVI retraced the spiritual journey of St. Peter, the fisherman from Galilee, to draw a lesson: to follow God's plans and not transform them with our human desires.
Reviewing Christ's call to Simon and his first steps following the Lord, the Pope said that, initially, "Peter wanted as Messiah a 'divine man,' who fulfilled people's expectations, imposing his force upon everyone."
"We also want the Lord to impose his force and transform the world immediately," the Holy Father acknowledged. However, "Jesus presented himself as the 'human God,' who overturned the expectations of the multitude, by following the path of humility and suffering."
The Pontiff delivered that catechesis to more than 45,000 people gathered today for the general audience in St. Peter's Square. He was continuing his series of weekly reflections on the Church.
In earlier catecheses the Pope explained that Christ entrusted his Church to the apostles. In the forthcoming weeks he plans to reflect on the individual apostles.
Benedict XVI began with St. Peter, presenting two key scenes of his life.
Faithful, impulsive
He first portrayed Peter's character: "He was a faithful Jew, who believed in God's active presence in the history of his people."
Benedict XVI added that Peter was "strong and impulsive, … ready to make his opinions felt, even by force," as when he took out the sword and cut off the ear of a man in the Garden of Olives to defend Jesus.
"At the same time, he is also occasionally naive and fearful, yet honest and capable of sincere repentance," the Holy Father said.
The first scene Benedict XVI presented of Peter's "spiritual itinerary" was Jesus' call, when, after Our Lord addressed the crowd from Peter's boat, the miraculous catch of fish took place.
Seeing the full nets, the fisherman reacted with "astonishment and trepidation": "Depart from me, for I am a sinful man, O Lord."
Jesus responded by inviting Peter to be a "fisher of men," Benedict XVI said. "Peter could not yet imagine that one day he would arrive in Rome and would be there a 'fisher of men' for the Lord."
And, despite the fact that Peter replied to this call with generosity, in fact "the Messiah he sought in his dreams was very different from God's plan," observed Benedict XVI. That is why, when the Passion was announced, Peter "cried out and protested."
And Jesus said to him, "Get behind me, Satan! For you are not on the side of God but of men," the Pope noted. Benedict XVI added that Christ, in effect, was saying, "Do not show me the way, I follow my way and you follow me."
Second calling
Christ then explained to Peter what it means to follow him. It is, in fact, a second calling: "If any man would come after me, let him deny himself and take up his cross and follow me," said the Pope. Once the apostle accepted these words, he underwent his second "conversion."
"These different conversations of St. Peter and his whole figure are a motive of great consolation and a great teaching for us," said Benedict XVI, drawing lessons for the life of any Christian.
"We also desire God, we also want to be generous, but we also expect God to be strong in the world and that he transform the world immediately, according to our ideas and the needs we see," the Pope said.
"God opts for another way. God chooses the way of the transformation of hearts in suffering and humility. And we, like Peter, must always be converted again," the Holy Father added.
"We must follow Jesus and not precede him. He shows us the way," he said. "Peter tells us: You think you have the recipe and that you have to transform Christianity, but the Lord is the one who knows the way. It is the Lord who says to me, who says to you, 'follow me!'
"And we must have the courage and humility to follow Jesus, as he is the way, the truth and the life."

Pasta Fazool for Cavemen
Posted By Susan On October 25, 2012 @ 11:01 pm In Beans and Legumes,Cooking,Italian,Pasta,Quick and Easy,Recipes,Soups and Stews | 9 Comments
A lot of things have changed here at Chez SGCC now that Mr. SGCC and I are empty nesters, not the least of which is how we eat. Our dinners have become more laid back, with a lot more salads, sandwiches and take-out taking center stage on our table. With Mini SGCC gone, I don't have to worry about preparing substantial meals with enough leftovers to feed a horde of hungry teenagers. While this means a lot less work for me, I kind of miss it. I don't know. Cooking for just the two of us just isn't as much fun. I'm sure I'll eventually get back in the groove. Until then, I'll be serving up more "one pot wonders" like this Pasta Fazool for Cavemen.
If you've been hanging with me for a while, you may have seen my grandmother's Pasta e Fagioli [1] recipe that I wrote about several years ago. Pasta e fagioli, aka "pasta fazool", which means "pasta and beans", is a traditional Italian dish made with cannellini beans, garlic, onions, broth, and some type of small pasta, such as ditalini. Like many Italian classics, pasta e fagioli started out as a peasant dish, using inexpensive ingredients and featuring beans as a protein instead of meat. Some versions are like a soup, and others more of a stew. Some use tomatoes. Some don't. Either way, it's still considered cheap eats.
Truth be told, I'd never heard of pasta e fagioli until after I was married and started collecting cookbooks. Hard to believe coming from an Italian girl from the Bronx, huh – especially considering that I've been eating it all of my life? In my neighborhood, pasta e fagioli didn't exist – but "pasta fazool" did. That's what our grandmothers call it. That's what our mothers called it. And, that's what we kids called it. The Italian language is made up of many different regional dialects. Few speak the standard textbook version. In fact, some of these dialects are so different, that sometimes native Italians from different parts of the country even have a hard time understanding each other! The word for beans in the Neapolitan and other southern Italian dialects is pronounced "fazool". The families in the area where I grew up were predominantly southern Italian. Ergo, we ate pasta fazool.
Now, I'll bet you're wondering where the cavemen part fits into all of this. Well, as I mentioned above, pasta fazool is traditionally a meatless dish. That's why it's called pasta fazool. Otherwise, it would be called pasta e carne, which is pasta and meat. But, some people here at Chez SGCC are cavemen, (like the person I'm married to), and don't consider a meal to truly be a meal unless it contains meat. I kid you not. No matter how substantial or filling a vegetarian offering I set before him may be, to him – it's still a side dish. Sigh… Sometimes, I just tell him "tough beans". Sometimes, I humor him and throw him a meaty bone. And other times, like this one, I secretly thank him for his pig-headedness, because adding meat to this dish turned out to be a very, very good idea.
For my caveman-style pasta fazool, I used some nice, organic, hot Italian sausage. Think of it as an Italian version of pork and beans. I removed the sausage meat from the casings and browned it up in a deep skillet.
Then, I sautéed some carrots, celery, onions and garlic in all of that tasty, rendered pork fat. Sound good so far?
I also tossed in some fresh thyme, rosemary and a bay leaf, and let them work their magic.
After that, I added the fazool and smushed about a third of them around in the pan.
Pasta fazool wouldn't be the same for me without some diced tomatoes.
Then, in goes the broth and some water. I like low-sodium chicken broth, but you can use vegetable or beef broth too. Bring it up to a boil and then stir in the pasta.
Reduce the heat and let everything get all cozy together until the pasta is tender. The starch released from the pasta thickens up the broth to the perfect "stewy" consistency, and you've got the most delicious, homey, hearty, meaty, stick-to-your-ribs pasta fazool evah. It doesn't get much easier – or tastier – than that, folks!
