HTML5 vs Native: The Mobile App Debate. Introduction Mobile apps and HTML5 are two of the hottest technologies right now, and there's plenty of overlap.
Web apps run in mobile browsers and can also be re-packaged as native apps on the various mobile platforms. With the wide range of platforms to support, combined with the sheer power of mobile browsers, developers are turning to HTML5 as a "write one, run many" solution. But is it really viable? There are still compelling reasons to go native, and clearly, many developers are indeed going that route. Feature Richness Point: Native can do more We can divide mobile functionality into two dimensions: the experience of the app itself, and the way it hooks into the device's ecosystem, e.g. for Android, this would be features like widgets and notifications.
In terms of app experience, native apps can do more. It's more than the in-app experience though. Counterpoint: Native features can be augmented, and the web is catching up anyway Overall, mobile is evolving. Best Collection of Mobile User Interface Patterns. By anthony on 05/10/11 at 11:30 am There are plenty of user interface pattern resources on the web.
A User-Centered Approach To Web Design For Mobile Devices - Smashing Magazine. Advertisement For the past few years, we've heard pundits declaring each year as "year of the mobile Web"; each year trying to sound more convincing than the previous.
Whether 2011 will be the real "year of the mobile" remains to be seen, but what is indisputable is the fact that the mobile usage of the Web is growing and evolving. As it evolves, so does the mobile user experience, driven by advances in mobile device technology — from better browsers on basic mobile phones (or feature phones — remember the Motorola RAZR?) To the increased adoption of smartphones and tablets. Three Layers of Mobile User Experience. By Shanshan Ma Published: May 23, 2011 "When looking at what makes mobile user experiences successful, we should consider the multiple layers of a mobile user experience."

Logo Presentation And The Nine Basic Ballet Movements When I was a lad growing up in rural America, we only got four channels on television, all local affiliates of the four national networks (yes, four; you're forgetting PBS, which I only watched when they did dinosaur specials). The ABC and CBS stations came in fairly clear if you adjusted the "rabbit ears" antennae just right, and wrapped tinfoil on 'em. Not too far off from what sat in our living room. NBC's station came in over the new-fangled and somewhat unfathomable UHF channels — we had to actually twiddle a dial that looked like an old radio selector to tune it in.
Short answer, we didn't. Designing For Android - Smashing Magazine. Advertisement For designers, Android is the elephant in the room when it comes to app design.
As much as designers would like to think it's an iOS world in which all anyones cares about are iPhones, iPads and the App Store, nobody can ignore that Android currently has the majority of smartphone market share and that it is being used on everything from tablets to e-readers. Mobile UI Patterns ? Splash Screens. Introduction to Widget Handset APIs in WAC 1.0. By Michał Jankowski Introduction In the brand new release of Opera Widgets Runtime for Android there are plenty of new exciting features, including support for the newly available Widget Handset APIs from the WAC initiative.
These provide widgets with a greater level of device access previously only available to native applications. Using these new APIs we can take pictures, check GPS location, browse our address books, access accelerometer information, and even send SMS, MMS and E-Mail messages! Building a spirit level widget using WAC 1.0. By Michał Borek Introduction The WAC initiative is a joint effort by mobile industry leaders to make mobile applications more interoperable across devices, easier for developers to create, and more powerful and useful for end users.
It includes a community website containing useful resources, and the WAC 1.0 specification. This specification includes requirement lists for phones wanting to be able to support the spec, links to the W3C widget specs that WAC 1.0 is based on, and perhaps most interestingly, the Widget Handset APIs. The Handset APIs provide a means for developers to hook into device-specific features such as cameras, accelerometers, audio players and more. Mobile compatibility tables.

The infographic illustrates, among other things, the number of cellphones per capita in various countries, the rate of cellphone adoption in the U.S. during the past decade and the acceptability of certain behaviors regarding cellphone use.
According to the infographic's sources, there are nearly two cellphones for every one person living in the United Arab Emirates (1.95 to be exact) and Estonia (1.94). By comparison, there are .87 cellphones per person in the U.S. China has the greatest number of cellphones within its borders (640,000,000), followed by the U.S. (270,000,000). In addition, 15% of Americans take phone calls during sex, according to a survey (although 6% to 10% think it's acceptable, according to another survey), and three in 10 Americans used a cellphone in 1999, versus nine in 10 a decade later.
MobiForge. Effective Design for Multiple Screen Sizes. So you're a designer and have been tasked with the design of a mobile web site. Chances are, unless you're designing for only one device you're quickly going to be faced with a common problem experienced by designers who work with mobile devices; figuring out what screen size to actually design for. For instance: The iPhone is 320 pixels wide by 480 pixels high.Many Nokia N-Series devices are 240 pixels wide by 320 pixels high.Newer devices often support a landscape mode where the width and height are spontaneously reversed.Older (yet still popular) Nokia devices have displays ranging from 176 by 208 pixels up to 352 by 416 pixels.Blackberry screen resolutions range anywhere from 160 x 160 pixels all the way up to 324 x 352 pixels.

Designing for the iPhone 4's Retina display. Designing for Retina display, part 2. Fonts for iPad & iPhone. All the sizes of iOS app icons. Designing the new Campaign Monitor iOS icons.
One of my first icon projects for Campaign Monitor was to create a set of Apple iOS icons for our mobile web application. These are the icons that show up when you bookmark our mobile site to the 'home screen' on your Apple device. Now, with all of the iOS devices floating around out there, you can do things the easy way by creating one large icon which is then scaled down for that particular device, or you can do it properly by creating a pixel-perfect icon for each device. For the iPod Touch/iPhone 2.5/3G/3GS, the icon size is a miserly 57 pixels square. For the iPad, it's 72 pixels square, and for the newer iPhone4, it's a whopping 114 pixels square. The challenge with iOS icons, or for that matter, any icon that will be used at multiple sizes, is that you need to come up with an idea that is memorable and interesting, whilst keeping things clear and concise enough that it is still recognisable at smaller sizes.

When it hits store shelves November 15, SimCity Societies, the latest installment of one of the most popular, long-lived PC games in history (and the only game to which I've ever been truly addicted), will include global warming variables in the many factors it uses to model how players plan, build, grow and manage successful cities. When picking what sort of power plants to build, for example, players have to choose between coal plants that are cheap to build and run, but that boost pollution and lower the happiness of local residents. As game-time progresses, rising CO2 levels boost the threat of droughts, heat waves and other natural disasters. Real-world oil-giant BP sponsored the global warming aspects of the game, so any green energy infrastructure that you choose to build shows up with BP's yellow-green sunflower logo. Coal plants do not. The game makes real — er, unreal — the sort of trade offs today's policy makers are facing. Reading this development made me recall how much I used to enjoy building a city in this game, then wrecking it with an earthquake, fires, a giant reptile or simple mismanagement. As in all things, better to learn the consequences of our mistakes through simulation than reality. Let's hope this version of global warming works the same way.
BusinessWeek correspondents John Carey and Mark Scott, cover the green scene, keeping on top of the business aspects of energy, the environment and climate change, as well as the technologies, policies, markets and people that are shaping how the earth's resources will be used in the century ahead.

Why I've decided not to read the bible
The Bible is mostly Astrotheological. It's definitely worth reading. There's very little proof for any sort of a literal interpretation of it, so it's time we stop looking at it in such a way.
care to elaborate? i dont know what you're talking about. id like you to try and convince me to read it if you are willing.
the bible's a fun book to read, even if most of it is nonsense, just like books written by ancient Greeks or Romans.
You gain no knowledge by being purposely ignorant of something. Ive read the bible, I dont believe in god and never really have, but its the most read book in the world, so I wanted to read it as I like expanding my knowledge on things. Theres nothing wrong with reading the bible, believing in things with out any factual basis or evidence is the problem.
If anything, reading it made me even less inclined to believe.
also OP's link makes some mistakes because the writer doesn't fully understand the Bible.
Under the section "For The Sins Of Another" the writer says that Jephthah sacrificed his daughter. This is not what the Bible says if you fully understand the context it is written in.
the movie Harlem Nights got allot of bad reviews that said it was Murphys worst movie - i'm sure the reviews made some people not see it -
i think it's one of his best movies -
so you stopped reading the bible because you dont like the fact that God is sovereign over what he has created?
certainly not untypical.
The writing in that link makes no sense. God cannot be genocidal. Matter of fact God cannot sin at all because morality is for man, not God.
If you are gonna be ignorant of the bible because somebody else read it and misunderstood it and passed this misunderstanding to you and you believe in this misunderstanding, then the loss is yours. Wouldn't you wanna read it for yourself to get your own understanding of it?
its totally understandable that people will read through the old testament and look at the crucifixion of Jesus and come to such a conclusion.
the explanation for it all is pretty simple though. God is creator of all things. since he created all things he owns all things. since he owns all things He has the right to do with them as he sees fit. God's creative decree(the purpose, meaning, and function of the things God created) is different from his moral decree(how God desires creatures to behave).
at the end of the day, all those nations were destroyed because of their sin.
well so be it then, i just can't say i agree with him.
Believe me when I say you should read the bible.
This is the truth
how do you know its the truth?
some parents can use this authority claim to justify abusing their children also
and people who claim to love this god and live by his rules also feel they got the right to hurt and abuse people in the name of god -
those who claim they are the children of god are killing some gentiles right now as we type.

Lent arrives on February 10! Sign up today for a Lent devotional experience.
An interpreter of the law asked our Lord a question, to try, not so much his knowledge, as his judgment. The love of God is the first and great commandment, and the sum of all the commands of the first table. Our love of God must be sincere, not in word and tongue only. All our love is too little to bestow upon him, therefore all the powers of the soul must be engaged for him, and carried out toward him. To love our neighbour as ourselves, is the second great commandment. There is a
self-love which is corrupt, and the root of the greatest sins, and it must be put off and mortified; but there is a self-love which is the rule of the greatest duty: we must have a due concern for the welfare of our own souls and bodies. And we must love our neighbour as truly and sincerely as we love ourselves; in many cases we must deny ourselves for the good of others. By these two commandments let our hearts be formed as by a mould. (Mt

I appreciate Herman's recommendation. Made me chuckle.
There are many different things that can improve the ride of any chassis. First and foremost is the identification of what needs improvement. Jittery could be anything from simply out of balance tires to a defective component. I recommend that you visit Henderson's web page and read through their descriptions of symptoms, causes, and remedies. After you know what's bugging you about your ride, you can ask for more specific input from others. Personally, I visited Henderson's and was able to work with them. I've completed a few upgrades and have experienced much improvement in my 2008 Kodiak chassis SuperC coach.
Posted 06 August 2014 - 08:05 AM
I have a 2000 Southwind on a f450 frame. The best money I ever spent was at Henderson's line up!!!
front track bar
new sway bar in front
and another in the rear (total of two)
I wish I would have done these improvements in 2005 when I bought the rig.
Posted 01 February 2015 - 08:45 PM
The Ford E450 is notorious for bad caster alignment which makes driving any unit a challenge. Had my E450 realigned with the appropriate caster adjustment (look up other Ford E450 forums for the numbers) and a spring-load "steer-straight" modification (about $400 and two hours installation time) on the front wheel hubs.
Now, the unit (a Coach House 232XL ) is a joy to drive on the interstates and no more swaying! Also, driving for hours does not tire me out because the unit wants to go "straight" without any effects from x-wind or being swamped from passing large rigs!
I hope this helps with your problem!
Let us know!
Posted 25 February 2015 - 03:54 PM
Boy I can relate to this, our last coach was an E450 chassis 31'6" of body length, there were times when someone would pass me I had the steering wheel at 5:00 to stay in my lane. I installed Roadmaster sway bars, Bilstein shocks and a HendersonSuper Steer track bar kit model SS450 (keeps the rear axle from swaying back and forth). Expensive but well worth it, no more upside down steering wheels or being pushed whan a tractor trailer would come up along side of us. In fact it handled so well you often forgot what you were driving, which can be dangerous.

APB's Ben Bateman Talks About the Fall of Realtime Worlds
APB (All Points Bulletin) may go down as one of the greatest gaming catastrophes in history. After tens of millions in investment and five years in development, the MMOG shooter only managed to operate for less than three months. There have been several stories that have detailed the demise of APB developer Realtime Worlds, but a new tale has emerged from former Realtime Worlds Community Officer Ben Bateman. In a recent interview with Eurogamer, Batman explains what it was like to work for Realtime Worlds and how much better they treated him at an entry level position compared to other companies.
But despite the shiny beginning, the grim end of Realtime Worlds became apparent to everyone working there after the launch of APB. The rumor of layoffs began to circulate and Batman recalls that they were much more widespread than anyone had expected.
"They essentially said, 'Here are the 50 people that we want to keep on. Please go to room X,'" recalls Bateman. "It was tough."
Batman recounts the painful demise of the company and the friends and colleagues affected by the layoffs and the inevitable downfall of the company. It's certainly an emotional read for anyone that's seen this sort of thing happen to friends and coworkers or been directly involved in it. The full story is available at Eurogamer.

ABSTRACT: Escherichia coli is a non-carotenogenic bacterium that could synthesize farnesyl pyrophosphate precursor through the isoprenoid pathway. Carotenoid production in E. coli requires heterologous expression of carotenoid synthesis genes. The carotenoid synthesis operons are assembled from genes isolated from carotenogenic bacterial sources. Expression of the different operons yields different carotenoid titers. The operons containing the idi gene give more than fivefold higher carotenoid titers than the operons lacking the idi gene. The carotenoid modification genes encoding ketolases and hydroxylases are incorporated into the operons for canthaxanthin and astaxanthin production. The ketolases and hydroxylases from different bacterial sources produce astaxanthin of different purity relative to the total carotenoids. Expression of the ketolases and hydroxylases closer to the promoter appears to give higher astaxanthin purity than expression farther from the promoter at the end of the operons. Balanced expression of ketolases and hydroxylases is critical to achieve high astaxanthin purity. Here, we describe methods to assemble carotenoid biosynthesis operons from carotenogenic gene clusters isolated from different bacterial sources and evaluate canthaxanthin or astaxanthin production in E. coli.

ABSTRACT: Strains of Zymomonas were engineered by introducing a chimeric xylose isomerase gene that contains a mutant promoter of the Z. mobilis glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase gene. The promoter directs increased expression of xylose isomerase, and when the strain is in addition engineered for expression of xylulokinase, transaldolase and transketolase, improved utilization of xylose is obtained.

Xylose-utilizing Zymomonas further engineered to reduce activity of the himA gene were found to have increased ethanol production in comparison to a parental strain, when cultured in medium comprising xylose and acetate.
Article: Improvement of a CrtO-type of β-carotene ketolase for canthaxanthin production in Methylomonas sp[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Two types of non-homologous beta-carotene ketolases (CrtW and CrtO) were previously described. We report improvement of a CrtO-type of beta-carotene ketolase for canthaxanthin production in a methylotrophic bacterium, Methylomonas sp. 16a, which could use the C1 substrate (methane or methanol) as sole carbon and energy source. The crtO gene from Rhodococcus erythropolis was improved for canthaxanthin production in an E. coli strain engineered to produce high titer carotenoids by error-prone PCR mutagenesis followed by in vitro recombination. The best mutants from protein engineering could produce approximately 90% of total carotenoids as canthaxanthin in the high titer E. coli strain compared to approximately 20% canthaxanthin produced by the starting gene. Canthaxanthin production in Methylomonas was also significantly improved to approximately 50% of total carotenoids by the mutant genes. Further improvement of canthaxanthin production to approximately 93% in Methylomonas was achieved by increased expression of the best mutant gene. Some mutations were found in many of the improved genes, suggesting that these sites, and possibly the regions around these sites, were important for improving the crtO's activity for canthaxanthin production.
Article: Construction of the astaxanthin biosynthetic pathway in a methanotrophic bacterium Methylomonas sp. strain 16a[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Methylomonas sp. strain 16a is an obligate methanotrophic bacterium that uses methane or methanol as the sole carbon source. An effort was made to engineer this organism for astaxanthin production. Upon expressing the canthaxanthin gene cluster under the control of the native hps promoter in the chromosome, canthaxanthin was produced as the main carotenoid. Further conversion to astaxanthin was carried out by expressing different combinations of crtW and crtZ genes encoding the beta-carotenoid ketolase and hydroxylase. The carotenoid intermediate profile was influenced by the copy number of these two genes under the control of the hps promoter. Expression of two copies of crtZ and one copy of crtW led to the accumulation of a large amount of the mono-ketolated product adonixanthin. On the other hand, expression of two copies of crtW and one copy of crtZ resulted in the presence of non-hydroxylated carotenoid canthaxanthin and the mono-hydroxylated adonirubin. Production of astaxanthin as the predominant carotenoid was obtained in a strain containing two complete sets of carotenoid biosynthetic genes. This strain had an astaxanthin titer ranging from 1 to 2.4 mg g(-1) of dry cell biomass depending on the growth conditions. More than 90% of the total carotenoid was astaxanthin, of which the majority was in the form of E-isomer. This result indicates that it is possible to produce astaxanthin with desirable properties in methanotrophs through genetic engineering.
Article: Use of Transposon Promoter-Probe Vectors in the Metabolic Engineering of the Obligate Methanotroph Methylomonas sp. Strain 16a for Enhanced C40 Carotenoid Synthesis[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: The recent expansion of genetic and genomic tools for metabolic engineering has accelerated the development of microorganisms for the industrial production of desired compounds. We have used transposable elements to identify chromosomal locations in the obligate methanotroph Methylomonas sp. strain 16a that support high-level expression of genes involved in the synthesis of the C40 carotenoids canthaxanthin and astaxanthin. with three promoterless carotenoid transposons, five chromosomal locations—the fliCS, hsdM, ccp-3, cysH, and nirS regions—were identified. Total carotenoid synthesis increased 10- to 20-fold when the carotenoid gene clusters were inserted at these chromosomal locations compared to when the same carotenoid gene clusters were integrated at neutral locations under the control of the promoter for the gene conferring resistance to chloramphenicol. A chromosomal integration system based on sucrose lethality was used to make targeted gene deletions or site-specific integration of the carotenoid gene cluster into the Methylomonas genome without leaving genetic scars in the chromosome from the antibiotic resistance genes that are present on the integration vector. The genetic approaches described in this work demonstrate how metabolic engineering of microorganisms, including the less-studied environmental isolates, can be greatly enhanced by identifying integration sites within the chromosome of the host that permit optimal expression of the target genes.
Article: Expression of bacterial hemoglobin genes to improve astaxanthin production in a methanotrophic bacterium Methylomonas sp.[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Astaxanthin has been widely used as a feed supplement in poultry and aquaculture industries. One challenge for astaxanthin production in bacteria is the low percentage of astaxanthin in the total carotenoids. An obligate methanotrophic bacterium Methylomonas sp. 16a was engineered to produce astaxanthin. Astaxanthin production appeared to be dramatically affected by oxygen availability. We examined whether astaxanthin production in Methylomonas could be improved by metabolic engineering through expression of bacterial hemoglobins. Three hemoglobin genes were identified in the genome of Methylomonas sp. 16a. Two of them, thbN1 and thbN2, belong to the family of group I truncated hemoglobins. The third one, thbO, belongs to the group II truncated hemoglobins. Heterologous expression of the truncated hemoglobins in Escherichia coli improved cell growth under microaerobic conditions by increasing final cell densities. Co-expression of the hemoglobin genes along with the crtWZ genes encoding astaxanthin synthesis enzymes in Methylomonas showed higher astaxanthin production than expression of the crtWZ genes alone on multicopy plasmids. The hemoglobins likely improved the activity of the oxygen-requiring CrtWZ enzymes for astaxanthin conversion. A plasmid-free production strain was constructed by integrating the thbN1-crtWZ cassette into the chromosome of an astaxanthin-producing Methylomonas strain. It showed higher astaxanthin production than the parent strain.

ABSTRACT: Dietzia sp. CQ4 accumulated the C(40) beta-cyclic carotenoids (canthaxanthin and echinenone) and the C(50) beta-cyclic carotenoid (C.p.450 monoglucoside). A plant-type lycopene beta-cyclase gene crtL was identified for beta-cyclization of the C(40) carotenoids. A carotenoid synthesis gene cluster was identified away from the crtL gene, which contained the crtEBI genes for the synthesis of lycopene followed by the lbtABC genes for lycopene elongation and beta-cyclization of the C(50) carotenoids. This C(50) beta-cyclic carotenoid synthesis gene cluster from Dietzia sp. CQ4 showed high homology with the gene clusters for synthesizing the C(50) epsilon-cyclic carotenoids (decaprenoxanthin and glucosides) from Corynebacterium glutamicum and Agromyces mediolanus. One unique feature of the C(50) beta-cyclic carotenoid synthesis genes in Dietzia sp. CQ4 was that the gene encoding a C(50) carotenoid beta-cyclase subunit and the gene encoding the lycopene elongase appeared to be fused as a single gene (lbtBC). Expression of the gene (lbtA) encoding another subunit of the C(50) carotenoid beta-cyclase and the lbtBC gene in lycopene-accumulating Escherichia coli produced almost exclusively the C(50) beta-cyclic carotenoid C.p.450. One gene (crtX) with high homology to glycosyl transferases was transcribed in the opposite orientation downstream of the lbtBC gene. The crtX gene was likely involved in C.p.450 glucosylation in Dietzia sp. CQ4. The pathway analogous to the synthesis of the C(50) epsilon-cyclic carotenoids was proposed for the synthesis of the C(50) beta-cyclic carotenoids.

ABSTRACT: A new beta-carotene ketolase gene (crtW) was cloned from an environmental isolate Sphingomonas sp. DC18. A robust and reliable color screen was developed for protein engineering to improve its activity on hydroxylated carotenoids for astaxanthin production. Localized random mutagenesis was performed on the crtW gene including the upstream ribosomal binding site (RBS). Six mutations (H96L, R203W, A205V, A208V, F213L and A215T) in the crtW gene were isolated multiple times that showed improved astaxanthin production. These mutations were localized near the conserved histidine motifs, which were proposed for binding iron required for enzymatic activity. Combination of two of the mutations (R203W/F213L) further improved astaxanthin production. One mutation at the RBS (a438t) was shown to have additional effect on improving astaxanthin production. Most of the mutants still retained high activity on beta-carotene, however, the F213L single mutant and the R203W/F213L double mutant that yielded the highest improvement for astaxanthin production showed decreased activity for canthaxanthin production.
Article: A carotenoid synthesis gene cluster from a non-marine Brevundimonas that synthesizes hydroxylated astaxanthin. Gene[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: A Brevundimonas vesicularis strain DC263 isolated from surface soil was shown to produce hydroxylated astaxanthin. A carotenoid synthesis gene cluster containing ten genes was cloned from strain DC263, among which eight genes were involved in carotenoid synthesis. In addition to the crtW gene encoding the 4,4'-beta-ionone ring ketolase and the crtZ gene encoding the 3,3'-beta-ionone ring hydroxylase that were responsible for astaxanthin synthesis, the cluster also contained a novel gene crtG identified recently encoding the 2,2'-beta-ionone ring hydroxylase that further hydroxylate astaxanthin. The individual genes in the DC263 cluster showed the highest sequence similarities to the corresponding genes reported in Brevundimonas sp. strain SD212, a marine isolate that also produced hydroxylated astaxanthin. The genetic organization of the carotenoid synthesis gene clusters in the two Brevundimonas strains was identical. It is likely that the two Brevundimonas strains were evolved from the same ancestor and adapted later to growth in different environments. Expression of the crtW and crtZ from DC263 in a beta-carotene-accumulating E. coli produced astaxanthin as the predominant carotenoid. The crtG from DC263 and the crtG from another Brevundimonas aurantiaca strain were expressed in E. coli producing different carotenoid substrates. Both CrtG showed low activity on beta-carotene and high activity on zeaxanthin. The main difference was that the CrtG from B. aurantiaca worked well on canthaxanthin or astaxanthin, but the CrtG from DC263 did not work on either of the ketocarotenoids.
Article: A carotenoid synthesis gene cluster from Algoriphagus sp. KK10202C with a novel fusion-type lycopene β-cyclase gene. Mol Gen Genomic[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: A carotenoid synthesis gene cluster was isolated from a marine bacterium Algoriphagus sp. strain KK10202C that synthesized flexixanthin. Seven genes were transcribed in the same direction, among which five of them were involved in carotenoid synthesis. This cluster had a unique gene organization, with an isoprenoid gene, ispH (previously named lytB), being present among the carotenoid synthesis genes. The lycopene β-cyclase encoded by the crtY cd gene appeared to be a fusion of bacterial heterodimeric lycopene cyclase CrtYc and CrtYd. This was the first time that a fusion-type of lycopene β-cyclase was reported in eubacteria. Heterologous expression of the Algoriphagus crtY cd gene in lycopene-accumulating Escherichia coli produced bicyclic β-carotene. A biosynthesis pathway for monocyclic flexixanthin was proposed in Algoriphagus sp. strain KK10202C, though several of the carotenoid synthesis genes not linked with the cluster have not yet been cloned.

ABSTRACT: Rhodococcus erythropolis naturally synthesizes monocyclic carotenoids: 4-keto-gamma-carotene and gamma-carotene. The genes and the pathway for carotenoid synthesis in R. erythropolis were previously described. We heterologously expressed a beta-carotene desaturase gene (crtU) from Brevibacterium in Rhodococcus to produce aryl carotenoids such as chlorobactene. Expression of the crtU downstream of a chloramphenicol resistance gene on pRhBR171 vector showed higher activity than expression downstream of a native 1-deoxyxylulose-5-phosphate synthase gene (dxs) on pDA71 vector. Expression of the crtU in the beta-carotene ketolase (crtO) knockout Rhodococcus host produced higher purity chlorobactene than expression in the wild-type Rhodococcus host. Growth of the engineered Rhodococcus strain in eight different media showed that nutrient broth yeast extract medium supplemented with fructose gave the highest total yield of chlorobactene. This medium was used for growing the engineered Rhodococcus strain in a 10-l fermentor, and approximately 18 mg of chlorobactene was produced as the almost exclusive carotenoid by fermentation.
Article: Diversity of Carotenoid Synthesis Gene Clusters from Environmental Enterobacteriaceae Strains[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Eight Enterobacteriaceae strains that produce zeaxanthin and derivatives of this compound were isolated from a variety of environmental samples. Phylogenetic analysis showed that these strains grouped with different clusters of Erwinia type strains. Four strains representing the phylogenetic diversity were chosen for further characterization, which revealed their genetic diversity as well as their biochemical diversity. The carotenoid synthesis gene clusters cloned from the four strains had three different gene organizations. Two of the gene clusters, those from strains DC416 and DC260, had the classical organization crtEXYIBZ; the gene cluster from DC413 had the rare organization crtE-idi-XYIBZ; and the gene cluster from DC404 had the unique organization crtE-idi-YIBZ. Besides the diversity in genetic organization, these genes also exhibited considerable sequence diversity. On average, they exhibited 60 to 70% identity with each other, as well as with the corresponding genes of the Pantoea type strains. The four different clusters were individually expressed in Escherichia coli, and the two idi-containing clusters gave more than fivefold-higher carotenoid titers than the two clusters lacking idi. Expression of the crtEYIB genes with and without idi confirmed the effect of increasing carotenoid titer by the type II idi gene linked with the carotenoid synthesis gene clusters.

ABSTRACT: Biosynthesis of C30 carotenoids is relatively restricted in nature but has been described in Staphylococcus and in methylotrophic bacteria. We report here identification of a novel gene (crtNb) involved in conversion of 4,4′-diapolycopene to 4,4′-diapolycopene aldehyde. An aldehyde dehydrogenase gene (ald) responsible for the subsequent oxidation of 4,4′-diapolycopene aldehyde to 4,4′-diapolycopene acid was also identified in Methylomonas. CrtNb has significant sequence homology with diapophytoene desaturases (CrtN). However, data from knockout of crtNb and expression of crtNb in Escherichia coli indicated that CrtNb is not a desaturase but rather a novel carotenoid oxidase catalyzing oxidation of the terminal methyl group(s) of 4,4′-diaponeurosporene and 4,4′-diapolycopene to the corresponding terminal aldehyde. It has moderate to low activity on neurosporene and lycopene and no activity on β-carotene or ζ-carotene. Using a combination of C30 carotenoid synthesis genes from Staphylococcus and Methylomonas, 4,4′-diapolycopene dialdehyde was produced in E. coli as the predominant carotenoid. This C30 dialdehyde is a dark-reddish purple pigment that may have potential uses in foods and cosmetics.
Article: Isolation of chromosomal mutations that affect carotenoid production in Escherichia coli: Mutations alter copy number of ColE1-type plasmids[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Chromosomal mutants were isolated in Escherichia coli that altered carotenoid production from transformed carotenoid biosynthesis genes on a pACYC-derived plasmid (pPCB15). The mutations were mapped by sequencing. One group of mutations appeared to affect the cell metabolism without changing the copy number of the carotenoid synthesis plasmid. The other group of mutations either increased or decreased the copy number of the pPCB15 plasmid as determined by real-time PCR. The copy number change in most mutants was likely specific for ColE1-type plasmids for which copy number is controlled by a small antisense RNA. This collection of host strains would be useful for fine tuning expression of proteins and adjusting production of desired molecules without recloning to different vectors.

ABSTRACT: Random mutagenesis and directed evolution has been successfully used to improve desired properties of enzymes for biocatalysis and metabolic engineering. Here we employ the method to increase copy number of a pBBR-based broad host range plasmid, which can be used to express desired enzymes in a variety of microbial hosts. Localized random mutagenesis was performed in the replication control region of a pBBR-derived plasmid containing a beta-carotene reporter. Mutant plasmids were isolated that showed increased beta-carotene production. Real-time PCR analysis confirmed that the copy number of the mutant plasmids increased 3-7 fold. Sequence of the 10 mutant plasmids indicated that each plasmid contained single or multiple mutations in the rep gene or the flanking regions. Single amino acid change of serine to leucine at codon 100 of the replication protein and single nucleotide change of C to T at 46 bp upstream of the rep gene caused the increase of plasmid copy number. The utility of the mutant plasmids for metabolic engineering were further demonstrated by increased beta-carotene production, when an isoprenoid pathway gene (dxs) was co-expressed on a compatible plasmid. The mutant plasmids were tested in Agrobacterium tumefaciens. Increase of plasmid copy number and beta-carotene production was also observed in the non-Escherichia coli host.
Article: Novel β-carotene ketolases from non-photosynthetic bacteria for canthaxanthin synthesis. Mol Gen Genomic[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: We reported previously that the Rhodococcus erythropolis strain AN12 synthesizes the monocyclic carotenoids 4-keto gamma-carotene and gamma-carotene. We also identified a novel lycopene beta-monocyclase in this strain. Here we report the identification of the rest of the carotenoid synthesis genes in AN12. Two of these showed apparent homology to putative phytoene dehydrogenases. Analysis of Rhodococcus knockout mutants suggested that one of them ( crtI) encodes a phytoene dehydrogenase, whereas the other ( crtO) encodes a beta-carotene ketolase. Expression of the beta-carotene ketolase gene in an Escherichia coli strain which accumulates beta-carotene resulted in the production of canthaxanthin. In vitro assays using a crude extract of the E. coli strain expressing the crtO gene confirmed its ketolase activity. A crtO homologue (DR0093) from Deinococcus radiodurans R1 was also shown to encode a beta-carotene ketolase, despite its sequence homology to phytoene dehydrogenases. The Rhodococcus and Deinococcus CrtO ketolases both catalyze the symmetric addition of two keto groups to beta-carotene to produce canthaxanthin. Even though this activity is similar to the CrtW-type of ketolase activity, the CrtO ketolases show no significant sequence homology to CrtW-type ketolases. The presence of six conserved regions may be a signature for the CrtO-type of beta-carotene ketolases.

ABSTRACT: Carotenoids have important functions in photosynthesis, nutrition, and protection against oxidative damage. Some natural carotenoids are asymmetrical molecules that are difficult to produce chemically. Biological production of carotenoids using specific enzymes is a potential alternative to extraction from natural sources. Here we report the isolation of lycopene beta-cyclases that selectively cyclize only one end of lycopene or neurosporene. The crtLm genes encoding the asymmetrically acting lycopene beta-cyclases were isolated from non-photosynthetic bacteria that produced monocyclic carotenoids. Co-expression of these crtLm genes with the crtEIB genes from Pantoea stewartii (responsible for lycopene synthesis) resulted in the production of monocyclic gamma-carotene in Escherichia coli. The asymmetric cyclization activity of CrtLm could be inhibited by the lycopene beta-cyclase inhibitor 2-(4-chlorophenylthio)-triethylamine (CPTA). Phylogenetic analysis suggested that bacterial CrtL-type lycopene beta-cyclases might represent an evolutionary link between the common bacterial CrtY-type of lycopene beta-cyclases and plant lycopene beta- and epsilon-cyclases. These lycopene beta-cyclases may be used for efficient production of high-value asymmetrically cyclized carotenoids.
Article: A small cryptic plasmid from Rhodococcus erythropolis: Characterization and utility for gene expression[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Exploration of metabolically diverse rhodococci is generally hampered by the lack of genetic tools. A small cryptic plasmid (pAN12) isolated from Rhodococcus erythropolis strain AN12 was sequenced. Plasmid pAN12 encodes proteins that share homology to replication proteins and putative cell division proteins. Based on in vitro transposon mutagenesis, we determined that the Rep protein of pAN12 is essential for plasmid replication in Rhodococcus spp., and the putative cell division protein Div is important for plasmid stability. The pAN12 replicon is able to replicate in R. erythropolis strains AN12 and CW23 (ATCC 47072) and is compatible with the nocardiophage Q4 replicon present on a Rhodococcus shuttle plasmid pDA71. pAN12 appears to belong to the pIJ101/pJV1 family of rolling circle replication plasmids. Expression of an isoprenoid pathway gene ( dxs) on the pAN12-derived multicopy shuttle vector increased production of carotenoid pigments in R. erythropolis ATCC 47072.

My Double Shattered Glass Optimus with Shattered Glass Seaspray and Beachcomber, with the BTS Limited edition SG Trailer of which only 450 were made (mine is number 282/450). My SG Beachcomber and Seaspray are actually repurposed from other lines, Seaspray is the Target exclusive Storm Surge, and Beachcomber is from the Movie line Hardtop. In the Shattered Glass comics however, these molds/variants were repurposed as the Shattered Glass Beachcomber and Seaspray, so now i actually have official Shattered Glass versions

CLICK HERE TO DOMINATE YOUR COMPETITION AND FIND OUT HOW TO GET IT FREE!
When I was six years old my Brother brought me to a baseball game. It was the Chicago White Sox against the Detroit Tigers in Old Comiskey Park. I will never forget the moment I walked up those old concrete steps and lay eyes on that field for the first time. My adolescent mind couldn't process the beauty and majesty of what I was seeing. The smell of the grass, the crack of the bat and the feeling of the stadium shaking beneath my feet was overwhelming. I wanted to devour it. All of it. I fell in love with baseball that day. It's a love that renews each spring when pitchers and catchers report, the bunting gets hung throughout the stadium and the umpire yells, "Play Ball!"
A few years later I feel even deeper in love with baseball when I was introduced to fantasy. Back then I could only dream of being able to analyze advanced stats and metrics with the click of a few buttons. Parts of me still think there should be a class in junior high that teaches kids how to compute ERA, BA & OBP long form. Damn kids nowadays.
Fast forward a couple decades and we no longer have to wait to assess players. We no longer have to guess as to how well Billy Hamilton will hit at the big league level or how whether the move to Yankee Stadium will help Jacoby Ellsbury's power.
This season our team at Fantasy Alarm has developed the Assistant GM. Lead by The Oracle himself, Ray Flowers this set of exclusive premium content cannot be found anywhere else. In it you will find the sort of in depth analysis and assistance that only MLB General Managers usually enjoy. We present this to you for a one time cost of $30.

Well I did turn up, sadly I didn't have my starfleet dress uniform but I did have my starfleet academy graduation card so I hoped I'd be ok.
Unfortunately when we got there, there were about 20 other people arguing with the guy at the front door who said they'd closed early today (for seemingly no good reason).
What's the betting it'll close in a few months after losing money and they'll be telling the orlando sentinel that they've no idea why! must be lack of interest!

Academic journal article The Catholic Historical Review
Stuart Headlam's Radical Anglicanism: The Mass, the Masses, and the Music Hall
Article excerpt
Stuart Headlam's Radical Anglicanism: The Mass, the Masses, and the Music Hall. By John Richard Orens. [Studies in Anglican History.] (Urbana and Chicago: University of Illinois Press. 2003. Pp. xii, 184. $29.95.)
The nineteenth-century Church of England encompassed a spectrum of religious attitudes that included dour High Churchmen such as Edward Bouverie Pusey (who unlike John Henry Newman and others did not convert to Roman Catholicism), pious Low Church evangelicals, and liberal Broad Churchmen who reconciled their teachings with those of Charles Darwin and kindred scientists. Stuart Headlam (1847-1923) fitted none of these categories. Instead, this graduate of Eton and Cambridge became "the most bohemian priest" (p. 1) in the history of his church. He denned himself as a Catholic who welcomed elaborate ritual; he preached "universal salvation" in the slums of London's East End; he invited "wicked" music hall dancers to the Church and Stage Guild that he founded, and he saw joy rather than vice in popular amusements. He also instituted the egalitarian Guild of St. Matthew and edited the Church Reformer; he fostered the education of the poor as an elected member of the London County Council; he welcomed the socialist revival of the 1880's and 1890's, and he served for a decade as a member of the executive committee of the Fabian Society; he concluded his life as president of the London Shakespeare League. He also scandalized his church superiors by becoming the friend and defender of a notorious atheist, Charles Bradlaugh, and by providing bail for the imprisoned Oscar Wilde.
Basing himself on Headlam's published writings, on church archives, and on relevant monographs, Orens has provided the first modern biography of Headlam, and he has done so in an admirably compact, fair-minded, well-documented, and readable manner. …

Eva & Mario's Dirty Dancing?
Thought you might enjoy some pictures of Dancing with the Star's Mario Lopez and his "special fan" Eva Longoria. Meanwhile, Eva is supposedly rekindling her romance hoops star Tony Parker…
Eva, 31, and Mario, 33, have known each other for years. Mario said, "She's like a sister. Having her at the show was great. She was supposed to come other weeks but she's busy, plus we tape kind of early because we're live to the East Coast, so it's hard schedule-wise. She's got her show going, you know."

I like the heavy areas of color in this painting. The strong blue and yellow side by side make this a very playful active piece ~ wish I was there (I have a blizzard here to deal with).
Glad you like it! I'm hoping to take a better quality photo... the camera/lighting brought out the texture of the canvas, which isn't visible to the naked eye.

Hi, folks! You know, a certain video has started to make the rounds on your human "InterWeb," and I'd like to take this opportunity to set the record straight about it.
Of course my affection for rainbows is a longstanding matter of public record. I greatly approve of them, both in general and in the specific. They're wonderful phenomena, not just as the signal symbol of a completed Peggle level but also in the lesser form in which they manifest themselves in your world.
A couple of weeks I had occasion to vacation on your Earth, a bit of a camping trip that took me into some of your wilds. There I encountered the first double rainbow I'd ever seen. Even for one as blasé about magic and various sundries as me, this was a wondrous sight, moving me to go on and on about it at some length.
Now, some folks —I'm not going to name names—have suggested that my joy and expressed ecstasy may have been, shall we say, augmented by recreation of the pharmaceutical sort. Let me be clear: this was not so. I was merely blown away entire by the exercise of some natural beauty, transported from the cares of the world by being chosen by fate to witness this grand double act of refraction. True, it was no Peggle, but it was very very pretty.
So if you find yourself in the company of one who would snicker and slyly imply that I need to alter myself in order to be fundamentally amazed, tell them straight from me: NUH-UH!

Ben Ashton-Bell exhibits works that explore the self destructive nature of man, and nature taking back its rightful place in our world
Ben, you broke away from your full-time job as a graphic designer three years ago to illustrate more – what have you discovered along the way?
It's a lot of hard work! I've learnt to slow down. From the fast-paced environment of the studio to working at my own speed took a bit of adjusting. Taking my time to produce the best work I can; definitely quality over quantity. Whereas for commissioned work, there has to be a balance between time spent that fits the budget.
You've got a vast graphic design portfolio as well as loads of illustration works. Does your flair for illustration feed into your graphic design work, and vice versa?
Yes and no. If the project calls for it, I'll try and bring my illustrative techniques into a graphic design job and alter it to fit the style of the job. I've actually been getting a lot of graphic design jobs which call for illustration lately. (The best of both worlds.) But when I'm at home working on my personal stuff, it'll be completely different to the work done in the studio. Graphic design skills always lay a very helpful hand to composing my illustration pieces. But for me, there's quite a different process between the two.
This exhibition explores futuristic themes and "nature taking back its rightful place". For us, it sounds like there are themes similar to some Japanese anime, a la Miyazaki...
I've never really looked at it that way. I don't really focus on any particular culture for inspiration. I pull different aspects from a variety of different things. Nature and the awareness of the environment have always interested me and often recur in my artwork. And I do own quite a few of the Studio Ghibli collection.
Can you tell me a little more about what we'll expect at your exhibition?
Hopefully something worth seeing. Head to my blog to check out a few videos and sneak peeks.
How does the Jacky Winter Group's Hatch program help young illustrators realise their potential?
It's a great way for emerging illustrators to be introduced to the illustration world and how it works. They offer a great support system and help to give emerging illustrators confidence in developing their craft. I'm really excited to be a part of it.
