Oracle Claims $777 Million Damages in SAP Infringement Case
Oracle Corp. said it will claim damages of $776.7 million in its retrial of a copyright-infringement lawsuit against SAP AG, the biggest maker of business-management software.
Oracle decided in February to pursue a new trial rather than accept U.S. District Judge Phyllis Hamilton's reduction of a 2010 jury verdict the company won from $1.3 billion to $272 million. The retrial is scheduled for June 18 in Oakland, California.
Oracle said in a court filing that it has a right to pursue actual damages measured by the "fair market value of the rights infringed." To do so, the company has asked Hamilton, to let it present evidence of a "hypothetical license" that would establish that value. If not, Oracle said, it will pursue damages based on $656 million in SAP's profits and $120.7 million in Oracle's lost profits, according to the April 26 filing.
Oracle said its damages claim will be supported at trial by an "updated analysis and additional evidence to support the infringers' profits and lost profit amounts."
"We think Oracle's damage estimate is overstated," Jim Dever, a spokesman for Walldorf, Germany-based SAP, said in an e-mail. SAP estimates damages at $28 million, he said.
Downloaded and Copied
Oracle, based in Redwood City, California, sued in 2007 after discovering that SAP's software-maintenance unit had downloaded and copied its software. SAP didn't contest that it was liable for the infringement by its TomorrowNow unit, which the company closed in 2008.
The jury award of $1.3 billion was based on the value of a hypothetical license that SAP would have needed to use Oracle's software. Hamilton threw out the verdict, calling it "grossly excessive" and not supported by the evidence.
TomorrowNow pleaded guilty in September to U.S. charges of unauthorized computer access and SAP paid the unit's $20 million fine.
The civil case is Oracle Corp. v. SAP AG, 07-1658, U.S. District Court, Northern District of California (Oakland).

SMX Advanced AdWords Workshop
The SMX workshops are one day intensive training session about Google AdWords and how to extract the most value from your AdWords Account. We have partnered with SMX to bring you this interactive learning experience. You can attend a full day workshop, attend the conference, or do both if you desire.
Workshop Agenda
Brad Geddes explains what to expect when you attend the Advanced AdWords Workshop at SMX.
Watch the Video
Workshop Topics
Comprehensive Keyword Research: The absolute center of every PPC campaign is keywords. We'll start this section by correlating keywords to the buying funnel and examining the user intent. While keywords are the lifeblood of PPC, perfecting your match types usage while controlling your negative keywords can drastically increase your overall revenue. We will cover how to organize your account based upon match types, positive, and negative keywords.
Writing Compelling Ad Copy: Your first impression is your ad. Discover the most important ad creation elements and craft ads based upon the buying funnel. To spice up your ads, you need to utilize ad extensions and we will cover them in-depth.
Create Ad Testing Framework: Testing ads is essential to any AdWords account's success. You will take away ideas for ads to test, understand the success metrics for ad testing, and be able to create an ad testing framework for your organization.
Demystifying Quality Score: Quality Score has a larger effect on your account's visibility than any other setting inside of AdWords. Quality Score can be a challenge to increase. Receive step-by-step instructions in how to prioritize Quality Score improvement, and what actions to take to increase your Quality Scores.
Increase Your Conversions with Remarketing: Most users do not convert on their first visit. Learn how to use remarketing to bring the unconverted back to your site and increase your total sales.
Account Automation: No one has enough time to manage every single aspect of AdWords. In this section, we will look at how to create automated bid rules, schedule promotions, and give you other ideas for saving you time by automating aspects of your account.
Increase Your Landing Page Conversions: The first impression to a potential customer is the landing page. With only a few seconds to engage the buyer this may be more important in your conversion funnel than anything else. This section of the course will not only go into best practices and usability, but how to test landing pages in a simple and effective method.
Open Q&A: You will have the opportunity to ask questions as we go throughout the agenda during the day; and we will end the day with an open Q&A session so you can make sure your specific questions are answered.
Networking Opportunities: Conferences are fantastic places to network and meet fellow practitioners of online marketing. Lunch will be provided so you can spend time getting to know your fellow attendees.
You did a great job in the seminars this week. You totally are an expert on the subject and that was great to see. Well worth the money for the seminar and the education I got. I have been working on adwords for about 4 years now mostly part time, took the basic classes two years ago in Dallas and so it was great to move to the next level of knowledge. I feel empowered! Please email me when your new book comes out.
Kenneth H. Butler, Butler Information Technologies, Inc.
Within a few hours my goals for this Seminar in Toronto had already been achieved, I thought it was a very interesting and helpful Seminar. Brad, I admire your enthusiasm and wide range of knowledge. Keep up the good work! I would recommend this Seminar to anyone who has a basic knowledge about Adwords and Analytics. For Analytics you need to know a bit more about the technical implementation though.
Dennis, Wicked Media NV
The seminar was probably worth far more than 10 times the cost. I was astounded to see how much useful information Brad was able to deliver in one day. My only quasi-negative comment: It might have been too much good information. I'm a little overwhelmed just thinking about where to start with all the positive changes I can now make with our internet marketing.

With everything off go back to your rear back window where the rear window defroster grid is. Then take your multimeter and set it to the lowest ohms setting probably like 200 ohms. Then touch the two meter leads together it should read 0 ohms. If it does then ground the black lead of the meter to a good unpainted chassis ground. Then you will see a black wire and purple and white wire to your defroster grid you want to touch the exposed terminal of the red meter lead to the black wire it should read less then 2 ohms. Let me know what you find.

$700 shipped.
$700 shipped.
The lack of front fork eyelets is strange.
In the photo I think I see a threaded hole in the fork almost 1/2 of the way up to the brakes? Wing Nut
I clicked through to BD's website and they have a whole gallery of photos there -- I couldn't see front fork eyelets on those photos, either. Seems odd. If they're out to copy the Surly LHT they should have paid closer attention.
Also, the geometry chart says the chainstays are 440mm (17.3 inches). Seems short to me for a fully loaded touring bike.
Otherwise, nice effort, great price if the wheels are any good.
Wouldn't want to depend on that rack for any long tour... but that's just me.
Yeah, that rear rack would be replaced quick-style.
no front fender eyelets isn't just strange, it's bizarre. the windsor has 'em...
The bicycle, the bicycle surely, should always be the vehicle of novelists and poets. Christopher Morley
Other than the front fork snafu, that's a lot of bike for the buck. Both Axiom and Old Man Mountain make front racks that would easily work.
It's not much different from the Tourist. Replaced the STIs with bar ends and a fork with no eyelets. Same threaded headset, same chainstay length. Looks like they've added an XT RD. I'd buy the tourist, sell the STIs for bar ends, and XT and still be ahead a little.
2009 Specialized Allez Sport Compact
2006 Cannondale F300
1988 Panasonic DX6000
The crankset is different than the Tourist, geared lower and a nicer Sugino.
Lugged fork is a nice touch too, and the paint color and silver decals remind me of my Miyata 1000!
Bikesdirect confirmed that the bike shipped does not have fender eyelets. This has to be a design/oversight screw-up. The only front rack I am aware of that might fit is the overpriced Nitto front platform rack, which apparently won't hold panniers. So now BD has the Windsor, which really isn't geared low enough for touring, and the Motobecane, which has is geared lower but doesn't have fender eyelets to properly mount a front rack. They need to hire someone who can spec a bike correctly the first time. I won't hold my breath.
1999 Waterford RSE-11, 1995 Waterford 1200, 1989 Specialized Rockhopper Comp
1989 Raleigh Technium, 1989 Schwinn Traveler, 1986 Specialized Rockhopper
1984 Specialized Stumpjumper, 1986 Specialized Stumpjumper and just way too many projects to list.
Bikesdirect informed me via email on 06-24-10 that "Apparently the fork was speced incorrectly and this will be changed for the next production run this winter." This might be a good time to offer suggestions as to other spec changes. For instance, I'd like to see it geared even lower. A slightly longer chain stay would be nice. An option for a non-drop bar would be ok with me with me. Cut out the seat and the pedals and either drop the price accordingly or add an upgrade in lieu thereof.
You think they'd take an offer of $400 each for the remaining bikes? At that price you could customize the bike to suit your purpose.

1989 Raleigh Technium, 1989 Schwinn Traveler, 1986 Specialized Rockhopper
1984 Specialized Stumpjumper, 1986 Specialized Stumpjumper and just way too many projects to list.
Looks like it would make an okay rando bike, or a good credit card touring bike, or a commuter, or a bike for fun day rides. Not a real touring bike, but it doesn't look too bad to me for other uses.
I had read on a post somewhere else in the forums that bikesdirect purchased the rights to use the name Motobecane (and the others brands they sell) but the bikes don't actually have anything to do with the real company. You may want to look into if furthere before purchasing from that site.
As far as whether it is a "real touring bike"... I used my Windsor Tourist for loaded touring on the Trans America (4200+ miles) and a couple other longish tours including a month in the Sierras and found it completely adequate.

Internal emails among senior U.S. military officials reveal that no sailors watched Osama bin Laden's burial at sea from the USS Carl Vinson and traditional Islamic procedures were followed during the ceremony. The emails, obtained by The Associated Press through the Freedom of Information Act, are heavily blacked out, but are the first public disclosure of information about the al-Qaida's leader's death.

They found a 46 percent rise in food-borne illness deaths. The bottom line: "Our results suggest that the San Francisco ban led to, conservatively, 5.4 annual additional deaths."
So is San Francisco's bag ban a killer? Conceivably, yes, but probably not.
Intuitively, the professors' findings make sense. The city's anti-bag laws are designed to drive consumers to reusable bags. Consumer advice types warn people about the dangers of said bags becoming germ incubators. I got this from TLC's website:
"Designate specific bags for meats and fish. Wash these bags regularly -- preferably after each shopping trip -- to get rid of bacteria. If your bag is fabric, toss it in the washing machine with jeans, and if it's a plastic material, let it soak in a basin filled with soapy water and either the juice of half a lemon or about a quarter cup of vinegar."
Ask your friends and family members how many of them regularly wash their reusable bags -- ask how many folks ever have done any of the above steps -- and you can intuit that a ban on plastic bags might not be the brightest idea.
San Francisco health officer Tomas Aragon reviewed Klick and Wright's paper and found "a biologically plausible hypothesis" but "sloppy" research. "It's a complicated topic. It's a little surprising that (they) would put this out there without a peer review," he added. If the professors had consulted with an epidemiologist, they would have understood how the city's unique demographics contribute to specific intestinal issues. (Unlike Aragon, I'm trying to be delicate here and not share too much information.)
In short, the doctor concluded that the study raised more questions than it answered.
Dave Heylen of the California Grocers Association ripped the study for not understanding something really basic about how the San Francisco bag ban worked at first. "People weren't using reusable bags," Heylen said. "They were using paper bags."
Be it noted, the grocers have supported proposals for a statewide ban on plastic bags -- which would require supermarkets to charge for single-use bags -- because they provide what the sponsor of Sacramento's latest effort, Assemblyman Marc Levine, D-San Rafael, calls "uniformity of experience" for shoppers and store owners. (It also means big stores can charge for bags and blame the government.)

Re: Smallville Summer Hiatus Thread III (Spoilers)
I learnt the other day that bedbugs do not have vaginas. The males to combat this deficiency have penises like knives to manage their procreation... This was told to me by Isabella Rossilinni maybe half an hour before I watched the finale of Smallville whenin Zod stabbed Clark with a big blue knife.
The odd part about the hiatus here is that time has stopped for everyone in-story, so we can't be hypothetical about much anything happeneing that wasn't already in proccess during the finale .

Earnings wrap: LP, BioMimetic
A more buoyant housing market helped Louisiana-Pacific post strong numbers in the third quarter, but the company's shares fell because earnings per share came up short of analysts' estimates.
Downtown-based LP said it earned $31.3 million in the three months ended Sept. 30. That reversed a loss of more than $65 million a year ago, when the manufacturer of building supplies took a large impairment charge. Revenues rose by a third to $468 million, and operating margins came in at 9.3 percent, helped by prices of its mainstay oriented strand board products jumping 50 percent.
But earnings per share came in at 22 cents, four cents lower than analysts had been looking for. That had investors pushing down the company's stock (Ticker: LPX) by more than 4 percent at about 11 a.m. Year to date, the shares are still up more than 90 percent.
"While housing signs look very favorable, we are certainly cognizant of potential headwinds including a slowing global economy, an uncertain political and fiscal environment and slow job creation," said CEO Curt Stevens. "Our plan is to do what is necessary to be ready to satisfy increasing demand for our products which emerges within this broader context and respond accordingly."
Shares of BioMimetic Therapeutics were doing much better Tuesday morning after the biomedical technology company reported a smaller-than-expected loss.
Franklin-based BioMimetic said it lost $4.6 million, or 16 cents per share, during the quarter, compared to 25 cents a year ago. The Street had expected the company to lose 21 cents per share. That outperformance had shares of the company (Ticker: BMTI) up more than 7 percent to about $4.10.
Sales for the quarter jumped 60 percent from a year ago to almost $690,000, while research and development spending fell to $1.9 million from $3.6 million. President and CEO Sam Lynch said his team is moving forward with its product development and approval processes on various fronts and expects the Food and Drug Administration to respond to its Augment Bone Graft application by year's end.
"While we await the FDA's complete response, we believe we are in a position to continue to advance regulatory approvals and subsequent commercialization of Augment in other parts of the world, the commercialization of Augmatrix in the U.S. and our other product development programs such as Augment Injectable Bone Graft and Augment Chronic Tendinopathy in the sports medicine area," Lynch said. "If approved by the appropriate regulatory authorities, we believe our deep product pipeline will provide new, effective and less invasive treatment options for the repair of bone, tendons and ligaments."

Project Overview
Connective Corridor Quick Facts
The Connective Corridor is a civic engagement initiative led by Syracuse University, working with the City of Syracuse and Onondaga County, that brings together urban planning, civil engineering, art, architecture and design, along with principles of smart growth and sustainability – as the largest downtown public works project that the city and region has seen in more than 50 years.
The project is managed by Syracuse University's Office of Community Engagement and Economic Development. Together, project partners have leveraged more than $46 million in new external funding from national, state, local and foundation sources, along with private donors, to implement the initiative.
The academic goal of the project is research, scholarship and civic entrepreneurship, using the City of Syracuse as a "living laboratory" for urban revitalization. Multidisciplinary teams of more than 1200 faculty, students and staff have worked on the project since it was launched as a partnership between Syracuse University, the City of Syracuse and Onondaga County. The project been recognized as one of the best examples in the country of a public-private partnership partners recently won the U.S. Green Building Council's global leadership award for smart growth, sustainability and community engagement.
Construction of a network of new "green streets" with bike and pedestrian paths linking University Hill and downtown business and residential districts will be complete in June 2015. This network, which includes all new infrastructure, completely reconstructed streets, lighting, sidewalks, street furniture and innovative lighting, is designed to help create a more livable, walkable community along a reconstructed two mile urban corridor.
A highlight of the project is a comprehensive network of new green infrastructure that will capture and manage 26 million gallons of water annually across the corridor through a variety of advanced technologies.
Another key element has been redesigned public parks and spaces, along with landscaping and signage for key gateway nodes to central business districts, along with extensive tree planting. More than 200 new trees are being planted along the Corridor to create a "soft" green landscape.
Syracuse University worked with Centro to introduce a free public bus system connecting campus and community venues, with usage counts have grown from 6,000 to 200,000 rides annually. The system links an arts, cultural and heritage district, with campus and community venues working together to program and co-promote the district.
The project is building a public art corridor that features visual art and installations, interactive spaces, outdoor video, performance art, along with public workshops and lecture series.
A new downtown signage, civic strip wayfinding and "Kinections" — an interactive information kiosk system designed by SU faculty entrepreneurs and SU students, is being implemented to enhance the Syracuse experience for students, employees, residents and visitors.
More than 70 façade improvements, funded through a grant program, are being completed to augment the new streetscape. Many of these historic preservation projects, along with business district revitalization initiatives.
An innovative "Corridor of Light" initiative is illuminating the City's iconic architecture.
The Connective Corridor is one component of Syracuse's revitalization – and part of a story of regional economic transformation. Downtown Syracuse has recently seen more than $300 million in new private sector investment, including $145 million in new residential development. Residential occupancy is at 99% and the downtown residential population has increased 31% over the past three years. The city and region are being recognized nationally for the innovation collaborations that are catalyzing progress and driving change.
Key sources of funding include:
- Empire State Development / NYS Dormitory Authority
- NYS Department of Transportation / U.S. DOT / FHWA
- Onondaga County / Save the Rain
- City of Syracuse
- National Grid, Gifford Foundation, Annie C. Casey Foundation, Kauffman Foundation, CNY Community Foundation, Allyn Foundation and private donors

Does Contract Disclosure Matter?
Disclosure has long been the preferred regulatory approach to prevent one-sided standard-form contract terms, but its efficacy is unclear. For disclosure to be effective, it must increase readership of contracts and, conditional on reading, affect decisions. I use clickstream data on software shoppers to test these two conditions in the online context. I find that the prominence of disclosure of a software license agreement has little effect on readership. Moreover, those who read the license are equally likely to purchase the product regardless of its one-sidedness. Mandatory online disclosure regimes thus seem unlikely to impose competitive pressure on sellers.

Lebanon is ashamed and decayed.
Sharon is like a desert;
Bashan and Carmel shake off their leaves.
10"Now I will rise up," #Ps 12:5Is 2:19 says the Lord.
"Now I will lift Myself up.
Now I will be exalted.
11You will conceive chaff; #Ps 7:14Is 26:18|NoBook| 59:4Jms 1:15
you will give birth to stubble.
Your breath is fire that will consume you.
12The peoples will be burned to ashes,
like thorns cut down and burned in a fire.
13You who are far off, hear what I have done;
you who are near, #Is 18:2Eph 2:17 know My strength."
14The sinners in Zion are afraid;
trembling seizes the ungodly:
"Who among us can dwell with a consuming fire? #Is 30:27|NoBook| 66:15Heb 12:29
Who among us can dwell with ever-burning flames? "
15The one who lives righteously
and speaks rightly, #Ps 15:2|NoBook| 24:4Is 58:6-11
who refuses gain from extortion,
whose hand never takes a bribe,
who stops his ears from listening to murderous plots # Lit to bloods
and shuts his eyes to avoid endorsing evil # Lit eyes from seeing evil #Ps 119:37 —
16he will dwell on the heights;
his refuge will be the rocky fortresses,
his food provided, his water assured.
17Your eyes will see the King in His beauty; #Is 6:5|NoBook| 24:2333:21-22Zch 9:9
you will see a vast land. #Is 54:2-3
18Your mind will meditate on the past terror:
"Where is the accountant? # Lit counter
Where is the tribute collector? # Lit weigher
Where is the one who spied out our defenses? " # Lit who counts towers
19You will no longer see the barbarians,
a people whose speech is difficult to comprehend —
who stammer in a language that is not understood. #Dt 28:49-50Is 28:11Jr 5:15
20Look at Zion, the city of our festival times.
Your eyes will see Jerusalem,
a peaceful pasture, #Ps 46:5125:1-2Is 32:18 a tent that does not wander;
its tent pegs will not be pulled up
nor will any of its cords be loosened. #Is 54:2

a place of rivers and broad streams
where ships that are rowed will not go,
and majestic vessels will not pass. #Is 41:1843:19-20|NoBook| 48:18|NoBook| 66:12

24and none there will say, "I am sick."
The people who dwell there
will be forgiven #Is 40:2|NoBook| 44:22Jr 50:20Mc 7:18-191Jn 1:7-9 their iniquity. #Is 13:11

Anthony Shouldn't Take Every Big Shot
When the Knicks need someone to take a big shot, it goes without saying who is going to take it. But maybe it shouldn't.
As crazy as it may sound, the Knicks ought to avoid relying on Carmelo Anthony in the closing moments—even though he has had an MVP-caliber season. The way they lost Game 4 of their first-round series at Boston on Sunday bears this out.
Anthony endured the second-worst shooting performance—10 for 35—of his career. The Knicks didn't have J.R. Smith to help shoulder the scoring burden. Still, they eventually found something that worked: the pick and roll, which they ran three times in the fourth, scoring on each occasion.
But instead of continuing that strategy, they fed the ball to Anthony during the final minute of regulation. He wound up missing two long jumpers in that stretch, though. The Knicks went on to lose in overtime.
Nevertheless, guard Raymond Felton supported getting the ball to Anthony despite his struggles.
"At the end of the day, you're going to live and die with your go-to guy," Felton said. "You [can] have something that works all game—the screen and roll was great for us—but when the game's on the line, you're going to give the ball to your man who puts the ball in the basket for you."
But the Knicks have failed this season when relying late on Anthony, who has gone 1-for-10 on last-minute shots that would have either tied or won a game.
That isn't to say that Anthony—a six-time All-Star who won his first NBA scoring crown this season—is incapable of hitting a big shot. In fact, he entered this season having hit 44.6% of his potential game-winning or game-tying shots in the final 24 seconds of games the past 10 years. That is the NBA's highest mark in that span, according to Stats LLC. (The league average was 28%, a percentage that LeBron James, Kevin Durant and Kobe Bryant all hovered around.)
Asked about his late-game mind-set, Anthony said he was simply "trying to do whatever [he] could to win the basketball game" and be aggressive with the ball, particularly with several Celtics in foul trouble. (He did at least earn 20 free throws.)
Even before Anthony's crucial Game 4 shots misfired, though, there were two early suggestions that they would be off the mark.
The first: Since joining the Knicks in February 2011, Anthony hasn't connected on a last-minute game-tying or game-winning try when he was shooting less than 48% at the time of the shot.
And the second factor, which is even more important: where the attempts came from. (Both were long two-point shots.) Anthony's lone clutch basket this season—a game-winning layup against Atlanta—came on the one shot he took from inside the paint. His nine other clutch attempts, all misses, came from outside the paint.
Over the past three seasons, Anthony has fared worst in the clutch (36%) when shooting from midrange. That is a considerable drop-off from the 50% he has hit on layup attempts, or even the 44.4% he has shot from three-point range, where he presumably has more space to shoot.
The lack of late-game drives set Anthony apart from other stars, who get to the rim more frequently when games are on the line. Three of Durant's four clutch baskets were from inside the paint, while three of James's five scores came from there.
And the three playoff teams who were most efficient in the clutch during the season—the Atlanta Hawks, Los Angeles Clippers and Memphis Grizzlies—were each led by player who took at least half of his crunchtime attempts from the paint: Atlanta's Al Horford, Los Angeles's Chris Paul and Memphis's Mike Conley.

California's historic drought continued to draw responses on several fronts Wednesday, including in the House of Representatives where the Republican majority pushed through contentious legislation that would weaken environmental protections so that more water can flow to thirsty farms and cities in the Central Valley.
That measure sparked a clash within the San Diego delegation. The measure also appears to have little chance of becoming law. The Senate has blocked similar attempts and President Barack Obama has already promised a veto should it reach his desk.
Other developments:
• San Diego interim Mayor Todd Gloria said the city is offering a free residential water survey program to help homeowners detect waste inside and outside. The city is also promoting a program to allow homeowners to finance water and energy efficiency projects through their property tax assessments that will amortize the costs over a decade or more.
• The state Fish and Game Commission closed several Northern California rivers and streams to recreational fishing to save populations. The action, supported by most fishing groups, was the first of its kind in response to a drought. It affects about 5 percent of the state's waterways.
• Federal agencies announced a $14 million grant program to help agricultural water districts conserve and to protect the soil if land is left idle.
In Congress, the debate over the bill is tinged with politics. Republicans see it as a way to shore up support among San Joaquin Valley farmers and farm labor. But Democrats, including Gov. Jerry Brown, are resisting, saying it would do little to solve the water shortage while doing long-term harm to fish and wildlife.
Rep. Scott Peters, D-San Diego, voted against the bill. He said it would also take water away from Northern California communities and intrude in California's self-governance rights.
"We can't make it rain, and transferring water from one place to another, as this bill does, won't solve the long-term problem," Peters said in a statement. "The drought will only be managed through conservation, expanding our water storage capabilities, and increasing the diversity of our water supply."
Rep. Duncan Hunter, R-Alpine, supported the measure. "California's current drought conditions are exacerbated by onerous federal regulations that are harming families and businesses.
"This bill will revise current regulations to improve water deliveries to Californians, and produce more than $100 million in taxpayer savings," he said in a statement.
The bill would roll back environmental protections that limit pumping water to the Central Valley and also halt using water to restore the San Joaquin River.

Henschke Keyneton "Euphonium" 2003
The wines of Henschke always seem to have an intensity and richness that is much like an Aston Martin - sleek and elegant on the outside, but packing a fair punch underneath. Dense jammy red fruits, insane menthol aromas, with subtle hints of cedarwood and tobacco. A wonderfully long length (oh-er) and its not ridiculously expensive either.

Puddles of tainted water and the smell of condensate permeating in the air still looms where an eight inch natural gas pipeline, located on Hohn Road in Nordheim, had a blowout and spewed condensate covering nearly half an acre on Dec. 9.
At that time, Kinder Morgan director of corporate communication and public affairs Richard Wheatley said, "Cleanup operations are underway to be followed by repairs. It's estimated that the spill will be cleaned up within 24 hours."
Wheatley responded later, in an email, the "rains and the need for more soil removal than originally estimated have slowed the final completion of remediation at the site."
He also stated...

OK so I wrote a long review and lost it in a crash...so needless to say at the moment I'm just going to post a grade...B+
Edit: Some quick thoughts: I thought the animated movie was better overall. I saw the movie in 3D and I enjoyed that aspect. Its only my second one but I enjoyed indoctrinating a newcomer to it as well and she was gasping at the beginning! I thought Oa was breathtaking. Weakest part: the ending. More on this tomo...
I thought Oa was vastly underwhelming, unfortunately. Didn't care for the Guardians council area or the generic rocky place where the GL's assembled en masse. Both came off as set pieces rather than something believable....Heck, I would've preffered some variation of the council chamber you typically saw in the old comics.
Another problem I had with the movie, though it's not exclusive to this movie, is the overly busy design element. Sometimes less is more. Oa especially had this, as well as the GL suits for all. I would've preferred something a little less busy...but with some detail of course.
Overall, I gave the movie a D+. Unlike, say Iron Man, Reynolds could not shoulder the movie the way Downey did. The love story just felt like something I've seen a billion times, and some of the editing and writing left me shaking my head.
For me I feel like the negatives outweigh the positives. The ending was just awful and I felt like they really needed to cut elsewhere to give us an ending that felt epic. Something to really "Wow!!" the audience and get this franchise going in a big way.
"Everyone Booze Up And Riot!!"

Actually it's not, they are clearly better than what they did in the 1960s. As for whether it was "state of the art" that's another matter entirely. You may prefer the poorer effects of the 60s, but that doesn't make them better.
Yes, yes, that old line... There is no "clearly better" except personal preference. I can say the original effects are "better" because they don't look so glaringly out-of-place compared to the rest of the production. But it's all opinion, there is no objective standard.

Sadly an attitude has arisen that if we don't like the past we can revise it, and this goes beyond just making a new version like a remake or reboot. Now they want to redo the actual original work. In my view this revisionist attitude corrupts the context of the original work and is disrespectful of the creative efforts of many talented individuals who strived to create art and magic with next to none of the resources that exist today.
What we might call "revising," as opposed to "preservation" or "re-mastering," has nothing to do with original intent or artistic integrity. All it has to do with is getting new money from an old property. As such, it will continue as long as the numbers are right, but little should be expected of it artistically.

Review: 'Creatures' concocts familiar teen angst
This film image released by Warner Bros Pictures shows Thomas Mann, left, and Emmy Rossum in a scene from "Beautiful Creatures." (AP Photo/Warner Bros. Pictures, John Bramley)
The genders have been reversed but the supernatural, star-crossed teen angst remains firmly intact in "Beautiful Creatures," which clearly aims to pick up where the "Twilight" franchise left off.
Writer-director Richard LaGravenese's film, based on the first novel in the young adult series by Kami Garcia and Margaret Stohl, oozes Southern Gothic eccentricity and some amusing if inconsistent touches of camp. (A droll, drawling Jeremy Irons sitting at the piano playing Chopin? Margo Martindale in a feathery hairclip, carrying a live peacock? Yes and yes, please.)
But a strong cast of likable and, yes, beautiful actors can only do so much with the formula in which they're forced to work. And, like the "Twilight" movies, the special effects are all-too often distractingly cheesy.
This film image released by Warner Bros. Pictures shows Jeremy Irons, left, and Viola Davis in a scene from "Beautiful Creatures." (AP Photo/Warner Bros. Pictures, John Bramley)
The setup breathes some new life into such familiar material, though, as co-stars Alden Ehrenreich and Alice Englert feel like actual awkward teens enjoying the fraught thrills of first love rather than slick, ironic kids who are too cool. Their first meeting, on a two-lane road during a downpour, has all the trappings of a romance novel but it's also an early indication of the lively chemistry they share.
Once the plot machinations start grinding in the second half, though, "Beautiful Creatures" as a whole grinds to a halt. Spells and scenery-chewing can be a hoot; watching other people sitting around scouring ancient tomes for clues, not so much.
Ehrenreich's character, 17-year-old Ethan Wate, grew up in the suffocating small town of Gatlin, S.C., and is dying to get out. He rebels against the local conservatism by reading all the banned books he can get his hands on, from "Slaughterhouse Five" to "Tropic of Cancer," and as he enters his junior year in high school, all he can think about is how far away he can go to college.

Li Ka-shing's Hui Xian Hong Kong Yuan IPO Declines on Debut
Billionaire Li Ka-shing's Hui Xian Real Estate Investment Trust, Hong Kong's first stock sale denominated in yuan, fell on its debut after offering the lowest yield among property trusts in the city.
Hui Xian declined as much as 11 percent and ended its first day 9.4 percent lower at 4.75 yuan. The trust raised 10.5 billion yuan ($1.6 billion) selling units at 5.24 yuan each, the low end of its price range.
Backed by an office and retail development in Beijing, the trust has a forecast yield of 4.26 percent compared with an average estimated yield of 4.85 percent for Hong Kong-traded REITS. Hui Xian marked the first time in at least eight years that 82-year-old Li, the city's richest man, had to settle for the lowest amount sought in an IPO of a property trust.
"One of the trust's selling point was that you're also betting on yuan appreciation, but this might've turned away some investors because they thought the procedure of exchanging yuan to invest is just too much trouble and complicated," said Castor Pang, research director at Cinda International Holdings Ltd. "This adds to the fact that it offers a slightly lower return than most other REITs out there."
Individuals applied for about 2.2 times the stock reserved for them, according to a statement to the Hong Kong stock exchange yesterday.
The three other REITs backed by Li that sold stock in IPOs since 2003 raised the maximum targeted amount, data compiled by Bloomberg show. Prosperity REIT, Li's last REIT IPO in Hong Kong, which started trading in December 2005, drew retail orders of 300 times the stock on offer.
Li's REITs
Underwriters BOC International Holdings Ltd., Citic Securities and HSBC Holdings Plc set aside 20 percent of the total offering in Hui Xian for individuals, double the typical retail allotment in Hong Kong IPOs. The decision was driven by expectations that Hui Xian would be popular among retail investors, people familiar with the process said.
"It looks like it won't be as successful as people thought it would be," Alex Au, managing director of Richland Capital Management Ltd. in Hong Kong, which oversees $300 million of assets, said before the shares started trading. "Very strong response for the IPO was expected from the retail market, but it turns out it was barely oversubscribed."
Prosperity REIT now has an indicated yield of 5.91 percent, according to Bloomberg data. Suntec Real Estate Investment Trust and Fortune Real Estate Investment, the REITs Li took public in Singapore in 2003 and 2004, have yields of 6.07 percent and 6.51 percent, respectively, according to Bloomberg data.
Yuan Deposits
Li is seeking to take advantage of China's efforts to promote international use of its currency and swelling yuan deposits in Hong Kong.
There are about 200 billion yuan of "idle" Chinese-currency deposits in Hong Kong that could flow into the IPO, according to a sales document sent by one of the underwriters before marketing for the stock sale.
"Originally, people thought that if this is successful, there will be more yuan-denominated IPOs in Hong Kong, but if this stock goes below water, then the interest for future yuan-denominated IPOs will be lower," Au said.
Yuan deposits in Hong Kong may rise to 870 billion yuan by the end of this year, Zhang Guangping, deputy director general of the China Banking Regulatory Commission's Shanghai branch, said today. The city's yuan-denominated deposits reached a record $52 billion in February.
Oriental Plaza
Hui Xian, controlled by Li's Cheung Kong (Holdings) Ltd. and Hutchison Whampoa Ltd., is backed by the Oriental Plaza in Central Beijing. Covering 100,000 square meters (1.1 million square feet), Oriental Plaza consists of eight premium office towers, a shopping mall, a Grand Hyatt Hotel and serviced apartments, according to its website.
"The properties are of good quality in a prime location, but that may not make up for other risk factors," said Katie Chan, Hong Kong-based analyst at Haitong International Securities Group Ltd. "For example, some investors may think there may be potential exchange rate gain, but the IPO prospectus actually made it clear that dividends may not be paid in yuan."
Hui Xian's ownership claim to the assets backing the trust expires in 2049, according to the IPO prospectus.
Li was ranked 11th in Forbes magazine's annual global rich list last month with an estimated wealth of $26 billion.

Although I find all the literature saying that metal have valence band and conduction band overlapped, (and I cannot find a metal example with valence band and conduction band not being overlapped), I wonder if there is a conductor(including metal) example with valence band and conduction band being separated with an infinitesimal width such that valence electron can jump easily thermally. I know this is semiconductor properties but with gap being very small then does this make the situation being conducting at temperature bigger than but not equal to 0K?

Out Islands, The Bahamas
7 Reviews
7 Reviews
I would definitely recommend water shoes due to the rocks in the water. The water slide there is huge and even as an adult I was scared of it. My four year old went down it, but it goes so fast that I was terrified for him to go down. Unfortunately I went first and he came down before I could tell him not to. I would say at least age 8 for the slide. I didn't see anyone taking multiple trips on it. It doesn't look that bad in pictures and videos, but it really flies. The little shops have some interesting stuff and aren't terribly overpriced. The eating area offers about the same stuff as the boat, but it is large and there is a lot available. And we got to go back multiple times in one day to eat. The people working at the kid's area were awful and didn't appear to like kid's at all. And we had to basically beg them to tell us the day's events or how the games are played. You do have to ride the ferry to and from the island. I recommend going early since it does get extremely hot there in the middle of the day and we did have pick of our beach chairs since we were on the first boat.
Abaco's is a great place for a little 3-4 day jaunt. Make sure you stay through the weekend, and leave the following week. All the islands have something going on, on weekends. Best one of all is the Pig Roast on Great Guyana Cay.
There are several islands, the main one being Elbow Cay, where the town of Hopetown is. This is where the candy colored lighthouse is. The grocery stores, liquor stores, and lots of food joints. Great place to spend the day. Bring some beach gear, they have an incredible beach.
What to do: Go bonefishing—the national pastime—or dive the challenging Devil's Backbone; Harbour Island Marina can arrange for both . Don't miss: The Native Boys, a calypso band that plays at sunset between Queen Conch and Harry's Lobster.
Surely no visitor could ever become passive about the waters of The Bahamas, but just to be on the safe side, our islands also offer a countless array of inland (or on-land) activities designed to whet your interest. Just imagine:
Bicycles are available anywhere, and The Islands Of The Bahamas provide plenty of easy cycling terrain. But remember, traffic drives British-style, so mind the crossroads, and be sure to give motor vehicles the 'left-of-way.'
When visiting The Abaco Islands prepare yourself for some fun water adventures. Whether you're looking to try something new or enjoy a favourite water activity, your options are plentiful. Everything from snorkelling and diving to waterskiing is at your disposal. You'll also find that most larger hotels can set you up with everything you need for your desired activity.
In addition, the calm, temperate water surrounding The Abaco Islands makes it easy to try one or all of the activities.
Snorkelling is the best way for the inexperienced to become acquainted with the stunning beauty of the Bahamian reefs. Equipment and instruction can be found at many hotels, and reefs teeming with colourful marine life can be found on every island.
With the beautiful water surrounding The Islands Of The Bahamas, there's no better place to learn to dive.
The Bahamas offer some of the best waterskiing in the world. Many larger hotels offer waterskiing as part of their service.
there is one Island lady who gives a tour on her private
bus.....be prepared to taste one of her 'homemade' teas
second, would be snorkling or scuba diving.......
very eccentric....and loves to tease men....
on the second activity.....owners are very accomadating to your schedule.........
There's an old monk's chapel on top of the highest hill on the island. It's actually the
highest point in all of the Bahama Islands. He built it himself out of rocks.
NIce view from up there.
They are softly coloured unintimidating buildings which fit in perfectly with the rest of the landscape. A stark difference to many of its European counterparts.

Bound to fail!That thing just terrifies me, well, it costs 30$Neither of the chargers in the video was an Apple charger. Both were fakes and neither cost anything near $30.You can see if you follow the link in the description that the genuine iPhone charger has a different and very sophisticated design with many clever features.
Like the apple one, still a crap charger by any standards just look at the SAMXON caps! Bound to fail!That thing just terrifies me, well, it costs 30$
From that you can say there is certainly coming a lot of dangerous crap from China, and it is not harmless.
3) The Weight: A real charger weighs 23.07 Grams and the Fake ones vary all over the place.
Uncle Vernon:Of course, not every single thing made in China is crap.
Nobody is retarded enough to claim that.
But spare me the PC jingo.
China specializes in cheap imitations.
EU import statistics prove this. They even have their own term for it: Shanzhai.
Yah meaningless standards about poisonous chemicals and electrical safety regulations. Who needs their health anyway right.
Sometimes, Chinese stuff is so bad, the problem isn't that it functions poorly, it's that it doesn't stand a hope of working. I call these deliberate deceptions "pretend products".
I don't care if keep your head up yer arse,
but if anything makes you look like a tool, it's your personal attacks.
Rigol is made in china isn't it? But they're now up there with the big names in terms of quality Dave noted that too
