Mike just had his performance review and while his boss said all the right words the translation was "GROW UP."
Mike is in his late 30's and has two kids, a wife, mortgage and a sleek car. They go on several vacations a year. Mike buys everyone great gifts. He is good to his parents. He is also a clever salesman and makes money for his company.
Yet, he was told to "GROW UP."
Mike happened to have my book "Don't Bring It to Work," and while he was reading it something grabbed his attention.
When stress is high he would get high. No, not that kind of high! Mike would get "high and mighty" and start to tell people how good he is and that they should listen to him. He would brag and boast and become the center of attention.
Mike explained that when he was growing up he was the sibling who had to constantly prove to the world how wonderful he was, but his older brother, on the other hand, being the quarterback of the football team going on to win a scholarship to MIT, was always getting attention.
Mike needed help. "What can I do when I get stressed and start the "me, me, me" stuff? I can't seem to shut up; I get defensive and have to prove to the world that I am perfect."
After reading "Don't Bring It to Work," Mike is already half way to home plate; or in his brother's lingo, close to a touchdown.
What is good is that Mike can already see where the pain point is and how it started. If more folks in the workplace could understand the concept that what we learned in our original organization, the family, gets played out in our present organization at work we would have much less conflict and less toxic stress during our workday.
Okay, now what to do. Mike took the PatternAware™ Quiz to find out that he is a Super-achiever. Super-achievers change when they begin to realize that success doesn't have to entail only individual accomplishment, but that it can be more rewarding when it includes working together and collaborating. With this new awareness, Super-achievers can stop their habitual judgment of others and rethink the essence of that emotionally packed word "success." The attainment of wealth, position, and fame are included, yet they are no longer the only purpose for defining what really matters in designing one's life. You see Mike's task was to transform his super-achiever tendencies to become a creative collaborator.
When super-achievers come together in support of a larger vision for the common good, amazing things can happen. In the business world, the demand for creative collaborators is greater than ever. This century will demonstrate that only very rarely can one person alone produce what we need. We must remember that greatness comes from group effort.
Super-achievers who tackle the need to be "the one," when they learn to include, to work together, to collaborate, gain entrance into a more rewarding world of heightened creativity where it is easier to achieve a state of intense focus and immediacy, what is commonly described as "flow."
It does take some real effort to talk about the core reasons for stress and it takes a grown up attitude not to deflect or ignore what causes you to behave in ways that get in the way of next level success.

With the opening of the 113th Congress, we at CBO will be using this blog a bit differently than in the past. The "Director's Blog" has always been a collective effort, so why not reflect that fact in the blog's name? Thus, we're changing the name to the "CBO Blog."
In the future you'll see explicitly that posts are being written by a variety of CBO analysts. You'll still be able to learn about the release of CBO's reports through the blog. In addition, we hope to have more posts about different aspects of CBO's budget and economic projections, about CBO's analytical methods, and about presentations that analysts are making about their work at CBO. Please look for these in the coming months!

The interior ministers of the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) member states - Kuwait, Bahrain, Oman, United Arab Emirates, Qatar and the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia - today issued a communique at the end of their 16th conference held in Doha, which reviewed regional and international security developments taking into account that the security of the GCC member states is an indivisible entity and reiterating the importance of cooperation and coordination among their security organs.
The communiqué expressed satisfaction over the arrangements made to facilitate movement of GCC citizens and exchange of commodities among member states in line with their economic agreements, and approved steps taken for facilitating the exchange and transfer of organs for transplant among the GCC transplantation centers.
The interior ministers expressed concern over the phenomenon of terrorism, which is no longer confined to any one country or region, and stated that cooperation is essential to confront it. Deploring terrorism as alien to the values of the Gulf region which are characterized by enactment of the law in the light of the teachings of Islam, the ministers reiterated their determination to confront it through all legal means, urging any country which provides shelter to extremists to differentiate between honoring human rights and condoning the destructive practices of these terrorist elements which undermine the safety and security of other countries, and warned against allowing these terrorist elements to exploit the territory of any country that provides them with shelter, by obtaining the means for financing, arming, and training terrorists.
The communiqué deplored the statements concerning the judicial system of the GCC member states that were issued by the European Parliament and other organizations, stating that these statements constitute an unacceptable interference in the domestic affairs of the GCC member states, and at the same time pave the way for the commission of more crimes which will have an adverse impact and contribute to undermining the security and stability of the region.

The Bulldogs (4-3, 1-2) enter Saturday's matchup coming off an important 28-22 win against Kentucky last Thursday night. Standout receiver Jameon Lewis scored a touchdown in three different ways for the second time this season, finding the end zone by receiving, rushing, and passing for a touchdown. Deontae Skinner and Benardrick McKinney led the Maroon and White with 11 and 10 tackles, respectively.
Sophomore quarterback Dak Prescott currently leads all conference signal callers with 10 rushing touchdowns and 490 rushing yards. The Haughton, La., native paces the Maroon and White with eight passing touchdowns, and even ranks second on the team in receiving touchdowns with two. Senior guard Gabe Jackson, the reigning SEC Offensive Lineman of the Week, will make his 47th consecutive start on Saturday, the second best total in the nation.
MSU looks to continue its winning ways against SEC East opponents, having won four straight since 2011. Dan Mullen is 9-3 all-time against the East as Mississippi State's head coach.
The last SEC East foe to beat the Bulldogs was none other than Steve Spurrier's South Carolina squad in the most recent series meeting two years ago. MSU never trailed until late, when Gamecock quarterback Connor Shaw completed a four-yard touchdown pass to Alshon Jeffery with four minutes remaining to claim a 14-12 victory.
This year's SC team (6-2, 4-2) is once again in contention for a spot in the SEC Championship Game, completing an impressive comeback to win 27-24 at then fifth-ranked Missouri last week in double-overtime. The Gamecocks trailed 17-0 early in the fourth quarter before late game heroics by Shaw led the Garnet and Black to victory.
South Carolina runningback Mike Davis leads the SEC in rushing with 930 yards through eight games. Defensive end Jadeveon Clowney may be a household name around college football, but fellow lineman Kelcy Quarles leads the Gamecocks with 7.0 sacks, good for second in the league.
Following Saturday's clash in the Palmetto State, MSU will travel to the Lone Star State to play SEC West rival Texas A&M next weekend. CBS will televise the 2:30 p.m. CT matchup at Kyle Field in College Station.

Auggies Deal Green Knights First Loss
MINNEAPOLIS — David Clements, Joe Haehn and Critter Nagurski scored two goals each, leading host Augsburg College to a 7-4 upset win over St. Norbert in a nonconference game Saturday evening at the Augsburg Ice Arena.
Augsburg scored the first six goals of the game, including two shorthanded goals in a 50-second span of the second period, to improve to 2-0-0 on the season.
St. Norbert, ranked No. 2 nationally by USCHO.com in the Division III preseason polls, is now 4-1-0 on the season. Connor Hughes scored twice for the Green Knights in a losing effort.
Augsburg was outshot 36-22 by St. Norbert, but Tony Ciro made 32 saves in goal for the Auggies — including stopping 22-of-23 shots in the first two periods as Augsburg built a 6-1 advantage.
Clements scored twice in the first period, on a goal from his twin brother Danny Clements, at the 16:48 mark.
Augsburg went ahead 4-0 on Nagurski's first goal, from Patrick Fogerty at the 12:52 mark, followed by an unassisted goal from Nagurski at the 13:42 mark.
Augsburg added a penalty-shot goal by Haehn at the 8:20 mark of the third period to complete its scoring.
St. Norbert gained two goals from Hughes, one at the 16:50 mark of the second period from Tyler Gow.
St. Norbert scored twice in the final 4:08 to trim the lead to three goals. Andy Cote at the 15:52 mark on the power play, and Boisjoli scored from Derton at the 17:37 mark.
Eric Van Den Bosch played the first period in goal for the Green Knights before being relieved by Kyle Jones. Van Den Bosch gave up three goals in the first period and made six saves, while Jones made nine saves and surrendered four goals.
The teams combined for 27 penalties for 65 minutes — 12-for-24 for St. Norbert, 15-for-41 for Augsburg — with St. Norbert going 2-for-11 on the power play and Augsburg going 1-for-9. The Green Knights have now killed 31 of 33 opponent power plays this season.
Both teams continue the "crossover" games between the MIAC and the NCHA next weekend. Augsburg has games at Wisconsin-Stout on Friday at 7:05 p.m. St. Norbert hosts St. Mary's on Friday at 7 p.m., and hosts St. Thomas on Saturday at 7 p.m.

The Dallas Cowboys have made some changes on defense, had some guys mature into positions, and locked up their quarterback long term.
Less than a week has passed in this year's training camp, but Tony Romo has seen enough to heap some more pressure on his club.
During an SiriusXM NFL Radio interview with FOXSports1′s Alex Marvez and co-host Gil Brandt, Romo felt confident enough to proclaim this Cowboys team as 'the most complete team he's played on."
"We went through a phase where we kind of had to reshuffle some things," Romo said Wednesday between training camp practices. "Some of the older guys were going out and newer guys were coming in. Now, we're kind of getting to where these guys have played and been in the system a little bit.
"I'm excited where this team is at right now. I think this team can compete at a very high level for the next three to five years for sure."
The Cowboys can be a complete team and have talent everywhere, but if they don't fix their penchant for slow starts, bone head plays, or costly turnovers, it won't mean a thing in the end.

Samsung Wave to be the first Bada OS phone
Samsung has already confirmed that it would announce its first Bada OS phone at MWC 2010.
Now it looks like the phone's name has been disclosed: Samsung Wave.
An outdoor ad presenting the Samsung Wave has been photographed by the::unwired – and, as expected, the phone is a slim touchscreen device. A photo camera with flash can bee seen on the back, but that's about all we know regarding the handset's features.
I'm not sure if the Wave is the rumored Samsung S8200 – but, if it is, it should come with an AMOLED display (or maybe Super AMOLED?), Wi-Fi, GPS and a 1GHz Snapdragon processor.
The expectations are obviously high, so let's hope that both the Wave and the Bada OS are as nice as Samsung wants them to be.

From the North Atlantic Right Whale Catalog managed by the
New England Aquarium for the N.A. Right Whale Consortium.
This is the only known calving ground for the population. Occurrence is December through March with peak calving in December and January, and it is believed that no feeding takes place during this time. The area is frequented primarily by mothers, newborn calves and some juveniles, and occasionally by some adult males and non-calving adult females. More than two-thirds of the cataloged whales have been seen here at some point, although only an average of 50 animals are seen here in any given year.
This map represents 30 years of photographed sightings of right whales along the southeastern U.S. Each circle indicates a single right whale sighting.
Other Areas with Right Whales
Right whales can also be found in a concentration zone in the northeastern U.S. and Canada and may be present in other areas.

St. Clair Shores
Expo offers trove of information for seniors
By Kristyne E. Demske
Posted September 28, 2012
Trying to fit every resource for older adults under one roof, this year's Senior Expo will include more than 60 vendors and about 25 different nonprofit agencies to assist an aging population.
The 19th annual Senior Expo will hit Assumption Cultural Center, 21800 Marter Road, from 9 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. Oct. 11. This year, the event will have workshops, health screenings, vendors and services available to senior citizens, including information from Medicare, veterans' associations and more.
Assumption Cultural Center formed a committee 19 years ago to look into connecting senior citizens with services and information in the area.
"The seniors are living longer," said Joan De Ronne, Senior Expo coordinator. "They need to have quality lifestyles."
The goal of the event is to give participants an enjoyable day, as well, De Ronne said. That's why this year's keynote address at 9:30 a.m. will feature JoAnne Purtan, an anchor and reporter with WXYZ-TV.
"She's very in tune with seniors," De Ronne said.
The event includes exhibits about health care, managed care, and community resources, plus an Ask the Experts section with a pharmacist, nutritionist, geriatrician and safety expert. Health screenings include carotid artery ultrasound, hand and chair massages, pulmonary lung function evaluation, spine evaluation and a body-mass index check.
"Everything (is) in one spot," said Terri Murphy, the Senior Expo chair and owner of Home Helpers in Grosse Pointe. "You can go through and talk with them at their tables. It's just a great resource of information to people who are either planning ahead … or facing these issues now.
"Plus, it's a lot of fun."
Everyone in attendance will also get a copy of the Resource Guide, a reference of older-adult services throughout metro Detroit.
"Those guides are very, very important," De Ronne said. "It's free and the day is free, and people can make a donation at the door if they wish."
Lunch will be provided by ShorePointe Nursing Center and Marchiori Catering, and there will be entertainment from the Detroit Police Blue Pigs and Gentlemen of Swing bands.
De Ronne said about 1,500 people usually attend each year, and Murphy said they print double the number of Resource Guides so there are extras to stock hospitals, city centers and other locations throughout the year.
"They're a great resource," Murphy said, and include adult day services, chore services, hospitals, prescription programs, support groups and more.
It is updated every year and complements the expo, which Murphy sees as a great event not only for senior citizens, but for their families.
"In my business, I find that nobody really thinks about these things until they're
faced with decisions and family issues that finally require you to look for this, and then you don't know where to turn," Murphy said.
Murphy said a lot of clients that turn to her business could have benefited from learning about what was available earlier.
"I think just about everybody that calls me, they haven't even thought about this stuff, and then they're sitting with a crisis, and they don't have a clue where to turn," she said. "I think it's a huge source for the families, and most of the seniors who come through are active, so they're not ever thinking they're going to need this."
Senior Expo 2012 will be held from 9-1:30 p.m. Oct. 11 at Assumption Cultural Center, 21800 Marter Road. There will be a free shuttle for overflow parking at Grosse Pointe Woods Lakefront Park. For more information, call (586) 779-6111, ext. 4.

Former Los Angeles Kings and current Florida Panthers defenseman Willie Mitchell enjoyed fly fishing with friends in Pitt River, British Columbia, during his day with the Stanley Cup this week.
Mitchell's fishing trip was tame compared to his first experience with the Cup in 2012, when he ascended Mount Benedict to meet his wife, Megan, for a champagne toast.
Mitchell, 37, has played in 795 NHL games for five teams. In 89 Stanley Cup Playoff games he has 16 points, including a goal and three assists with a plus-10 rating in 18 games to help the Kings to their second Stanley Cup in three seasons.
Mitchell agreed to terms on a two-year contract with the Panthers on July 1.

Ramona Singer filed for divorce from husband Mario Singer at the end of Jan. 2014 after reportedly discovering him with another woman at their Hamptons home. While fans of Ramona immediately suspected the divorce would be messy, much like that of her former "Real Housewives of New York City" co-star, Bethenny Frankel, things have been quite civil between her and Mario.
In fact, they seem to be on the verge of a reconciliation.
Just days after Ramona appeared on "Bethenny" to discuss her and Mario's relationship, telling the host that nothing was set in stone when it came to her split, Ramona reunited with Mario for some quality family time with their daughter, Avery.
"But first lemme take a selfie selfie selfie selfie #famday #lastdayofsb14," Avery wrote on Saturday, March 15, along with a photo of herself and her parents.
According to Avery's Twitter, Ramona and Mario have been spending time with her while she's in town for spring break. Although Avery goes to college in Atlanta, she returned earlier this month and has been enjoying time with her parents together and separately, as well.

On board the International Space Station, the current residents - Expedition Five Commander Valery Korzun, NASA ISS Science Officer Peggy Whitson and Flight Engineer Sergei Treschev - were told of Endeavour's on-time liftoff by spacecraft communicator Stan Love in the space station control center.
"Thanks so much for the play-by-play Stan. That was great," Whitson said in response to the news that the Expedition Six crew - Commander Ken Bowersox and Flight Engineers Nikolai Budarin and Don Pettit - were en route.
Once on orbit, Commander Jim Wetherbee, Pilot Paul Lockhart and Mission Specialists Mike Lopez-Alegria and John Herrington, along with Bowersox, Budarin and Pettit will begin setting up equipment on board and preparing to open the shuttle's payload bay doors to begin orbital operations.
Endeavour is scheduled to dock to the station about 3:30 p.m. central time Monday, setting the stage for Tuesday's installation of the Port One (P1) truss to the International Space Station. As was the case during Atlantis' flight last month to deliver the Starboard One truss segment, three spacewalks will be conducted by Lopez-Alegria and Herrington to help activate the new truss' systems. P1 is the third truss segment to be launched this year. It is one of 11 truss segments that will form the structural backbone for the station and provide the cooling and support for new solar arrays to be delivered to the station next year.
Endeavour's crew will go to sleep just before 1 a.m. Sunday and will be awakened just before 9 a.m. to begin its first full day in orbit. The crew will begin check-outs of the Shuttle's robot arm, the spacesuits to be worn by Lopez-Alegria and Herrington during their spacewalks and the tools and mechanisms involved in Monday's rendezvous with the ISS.

The Patio in Freeport is a nautical-themed, dockside-dining establishment that opened in May and has been drawing in surf-chic patrons ever since. The retro restaurant is located one mile from the Nautical Mile at the revamped Freeport Inn & Marina and although similar to Nautical Mile's waterfront casual and carefree style, The Patio definitely stands out. With 1960s decor and a touch of contemporary South Beach flavor, it's like Miami Vice meets Montauk.
Guests are greeted at the 4,000-square-foot establishment by an iron gate and find themselves walking through a posh outdoor lounge equipped with a flashy waterfall. Patrons can grab a seat at the 30-foot indoor bar or one of the tables inside. Diners can also opt for an outdoor dining experience on the waterfront deck equipped with fire pits making for a more intimate setting.
As far as food? Dinner is served until 10 p.m. and offers everything from lobster to burgers and fries. "Beginnings" range from $8 to $16, offering three flatbreads: Tomato & Fresh Mozzarella flatbread was flavorful but not overpowering and ultra-light with an assortment of vegetables; Mussels Sambuca was a pleasing plate that included PEI mussels braised in Sambuca and lemon-butter, dusted with espresso; and South Main Street Sliders, a burger trio with American cheese, chimichurri, staked with a fried pickle. Other beginnings include Tomato & Mozzarella, Buffalo Chicken Lollipops, and "Raw" North Shore Clams.
Of the 10 entrees, which range from $20 to 36, favorites were Citrus Soy Tuna and the popular Hard Shell Lobster plate; the nicely priced dish was a 1-½ lb. lobster steamed with corn on the cob and served with drawn butter. (Not on the menu is a burger that the waitress said is available upon request.) Sides ranged from $5 to $7 and included watermelon and sugar snap peas along with the obvious French fries and corn on the cob.
Four choice desserts range from $7 to $10 and included mini key lime pie, fresh strawberries & cream, Junior's giant chocolate cake—which was as expected, huge and satisfyingly sweet; and the favoreite Moose Tracks Pie, which was a delightful mix of ice cream Reese's Cups, peanut butter and brownie—even if it was straight out of the freezer.
The most exciting time at The Patio is the evening—as the sun goes down the LED lights go on and the music gets turned up—and that's on nights without the DJ. A DJ spins on Friday and Saturdays each week from 9 p.m. to 2 a.m. On these nights, patrons pile in through the front, grab one of the restaurant's signature drinks, and head to the deck to watch as others opt for a more impressive entrance, on a boat (docking is available upon reservation). On the drink menu, one will find three Patio Signature Cocktails for $12. Patio Punch is a fruity mix of Captain Morgan, Malibu Rum, pineapple and cranberry juice. Unlike the Patio Punch, the Raspberry Mojito actually packed the punch with Bacardi Rum, fresh squeezed lime, muddled mint and minimal seltzer. The festive drinks came in what looked like a bait jar equipped with a thick straw—I couldn't help but wonder if that was strategic. Not looking for a creative cocktail? Go for the perfect summer drink, sangria. A ½-gallon jar cost $36 and come in summer white peach or traditional red. The usual selection of beers and wines could be found on the menu as well. It's all ideal for a summer evening spent wasting away in Margaritaville. Or Freeport.

At some point in time you've got to figure the Bernard Hopkins story is going to come to an end. At 49-years-old and a title holder in the light heavyweight division Hopkins is currently preparing to meet a man 19 years his junior. That man is Beibut Shumenov and many aren't giving him much of a chance against the "Ol' Man River" of the sport.
However, Shumenov is different from some of the recent foes that Hopkins has encountered. He is a multi-millionaire without boxing as he is a construction magnate in his native Kazakhstan. He is also an attorney, speaks five languages and resides in a mansion in Las Vegas behind the high walls of a gated community.
While none of those things will help him defeat Bernard Hopkins on April 19, his dedication to training just might. Shumenov spends the first part of his day in his home resting in a hyperbaric chamber which he believes helps him with his stamina and training recovery. He has a home gym that he works out in, completely equipped with the best athletic equipment. He then goes to another gym in Las Vegas for sparring and more training. What's more, he also spends an hour or so each day engaged in Greco-Roman wrestling.
"I first started with Karate, then Tae Kwan Do, Muay Thai, Kickboxing and then Greco Roman wrestling," said Shumenov on Sunday during a training off day. "It helps me be strong."
The wrestling may come in handy with Hopkins who has a long history of being a "grappler" himself. Hopkins' style is punch, clutch and hold and he has used that to stifle the offense of his opponents on many occasions.
Shumenov's boxing style is unorthodox as he holds his hands at waist level, wades in behind quick punches fired from every direction and he's very busy with great stamina and resilience. He's all offense and spends little time on the defensive side of things. He moves quickly in and out of punching range.
"I've developed my own style," explains Shumenov. "I experimeted and researched and tried a lot of different things and I feel confident now. I feel comfortable in any zone. I can box, I have power and I feel very comfortable now."
Shumenov has been a light heavyweight titlist since 2010 and has long had his eye on Hopkins and a desire to unify the titles.
"I don't plan on knocking Bernard Hopkins out," says Shumenov. "But I do want to be a champion and create my own legacy. I know a lot about Bernard Hopkins, but I'm not going to reveal what I am working on to defeat him. I'm here to make my own history. Hopkins and I have mutual respect for one another, but in the ring I'll fight hard for what's mine – and what's mine is my title."

In the following, does the word "that" belong?
marked as duplicate by RegDwigнt♦ Mar 15 '12 at 23:06
This question has been asked before and already has an answer. If those answers do not fully address your question, please ask a new question.
This usage of "that" is correct and belongs.
"That" sets off a dependent clause but could be left off without ambiguity:
This basically means the same thing and the "that" is implicit: "we should go fishing" acts as a dependent clause, telling us what was said.
The answer to your question is, Yes, it does belong. The use of the word "that" allows the current speaker to paraphrase in general terms what was said whereas leaving "that" off requires a direct quotation.

Hancock County's 2014 boys golf season came to a close Friday at the Muncie Central Regional, with seven local golfers and one team failing to qualify for the State Finals Tuesday and Wednesday at The Legends in Franklin.
Greenfield-Central Sectional champion Oliver Mast of Mt. Vernon was again the top local performer Friday at the Players Club, but his round of 80 was short of the score needed to be an individual advancing to state without a team.
Three-time county champion Austin Alexander of MV fired an 86, as did teammate Jacob Ault. Will Dant (87) rounded out the scoring for the Marauders, whose team score of 339 netted them 14th place.
"The things we talked about going into (Friday) that were concerns showed up and hurt us: missing greens and missing fairways," MV coach Caleb Zelencik said. "That course will not let you easily come back with pars and birdies. It just got out ahead of us."
G-C's Adam Casto (89) – who advanced to the state meet last season – and New Palestine's Brady Elliott (88) were also out on the links Friday but failed to move on.
Yorktown (302), Hamilton Southeastern (303) and Pendleton Heights (309) moved on to state as the top three finishing teams.
HSE's Graham McAree took home medalist honors with a 70. Lawrence Central's Tony Rogers (73) was second, with Muncie Central's Keegan Bronenburg (73) taking third.
Drew Saunders of New Castle and Jackson Wright of Noblesville tied for fourth with 74s, while Yorktown's Palmer Hill and Eric Short were tied fifth (74s).
The top five low individuals from non-advancing teams move on to state.
The five golfers moving on to the State Finals without a team were Rogers, Bronenburg, Saunders, Wright and Oak Hill's Cody White (75).

Two-sided solar cells soak up the sun
By Rivka Borochov
Thirty-five years ago, Russian Jewish scientists Lev Kreinin and Nelly Brodin cooked up a theoretical idea for the Russian space agency to collect energy from the sun to power satellites: a bifacial, or double-sided, solar panel. Twenty years ago, Kreinin and Brodin immigrated to Israel with their know-how.
After partnering with Prof. Naftali Eisenberg from Jerusalem in 2007, the new solar energy company
was created.
The company has since raised $10 million in funding; bought a production plant in Germany where it is manufacturing its bifacial solar cells; and entered the German, Japanese and Israeli markets. According to CEO Yossi Kofman, bSolar's solution promises at least a 20 percent efficiency boost over the current and popular photovoltaic systems on the market, while production costs remain on par with solar panels that collect power from only one side.
The bSolar technology becomes most competitive when used in places where the area of photovoltaics is limited (think rooftops) but it can be used on ground-based applications or in building-integrated photovoltaics, where solar panels become part of a building's façade or roof.
bSolar could also collect power from dormant structures like
sound barriers and carports.
The bifacial solar panels in an installation
Any additional costs for using bSolar's bifacial photovoltaic (PV) solar cells are offset by the fact that bSolar can squeeze out more electricity per cell at a standard cell production cost. This lowers the industry's
levelized cost of electricity
), doubles the internal rate of return for the project and cuts payback time, Kofman says.
For larger solar panel projects, all these figures are meaningful, especially when renewables need to meet the bottom line and benefit the planet.
The other side of the record
The name for bSolar was inspired by the B-side of the phonograph record. "This is one of the reasons, but 'b' is also for boron, the material that we use on the backside of the panel," says Kofman, who is currently raising a few million dollars to expand R&D and business efforts.
Several companies are planning to embed bSolar's technology into their supply chain, including Solarpower, Aleo Solar and Solar-Fabrik. In Israel, bSolar has partnered with Shahar Energy to sell and install complete systems.
In Japan, the company is currently working to install a 700-kilowatt ground-based plant for the Tokyo Building Materials Corporation.
Some 40 people work for bSolar, both in the Jerusalem corporate headquarters and in the
Heilbronn, Germany production plant.
Kofman says bSolar hopes to launch business in two directions: One with existing integrators and solar energy companies, and the other as a standalone business and service.
The brilliance of boron
The most widely used solar PV panels consist of solar cells hooked together to act like semiconductors. Made from silicon, phosphorus and boron, the cells are encased in glass panels. One of the panel plates is made from silicon and phosphorus, and the second is built from silicon and boron. When wedged together, the plates conduct electricity through wires and metal contacts.
The bSolar bifacial solar panel is an old idea whose time has come.
In about 95 percent of all solar panels produced today, the underside of the regular PV panel is coated with a thin layer of non-transparent aluminum. In the bSolar product, this aluminum shell is replaced with a thin layer of boron.
Boron not only lets the light pass through, allowing for reflective solar energy to be collected from the bottom side of the panel, but it also boosts power output from the front of the panel better than aluminum can.
According to Kofman, even though the technology and idea have been around for decades, the process of applying boron to the bottom panel wasn't cost-effective until now. The complicated process is the basis of bSolar's intellectual property.
"We have the patents, the know-how. Boron is difficult to handle," says Kofman. However, it is a base metal that can be bought in unlimited supply.
The technology may be innovative enough to reach efficiencies that out-compete current solutions. Low production costs matched with high efficiencies are bSolar's main selling point.
The question is: Will future customers also see the light?

Due to their reliance on rain-fed agriculture, both as a source of income and consumption, many low-income countries are considered to be the most vulnerable to climate change. Here, we estimate the impact of climate change on food security in Tanzania. Representative climate projections are used in calibrated crop models to predict crop yield changes for 110 districts in Tanzania. These results are in turn imposed on a highly disaggregated, recursive dynamic economy-wide model of Tanzania. We find that, relative to a no-climate-change baseline and considering domestic agricultural production as the channel of impact, food security in Tanzania appears likely to deteriorate as a consequence of climate change. The analysis points to a high degree of diversity of outcomes (including some favorable outcomes) across climate scenarios, sectors, and regions. Noteworthy differences in impacts across households are also present both by region and by income category.

It's about time that Rivers Cuomo of Weezer started moving behind the scenes with his musical talents. The guy is an obscenely talented popsmith, and some of his work with Weezer over the last half decade has gone insanely underappreciated—though that's understandable, givne what a straight-up weird dude Cuomo comes off as. Fact of the matter is he is probably at a point in his career where his skills would be better served in service of a personality that is not his own, so it's good to see him writing for an artist like Cee Lo—another decidedly left of center talent who could use a little personality filtering on occasion.
From the beginning, you can tell things aren't going to be par for the course for Cee Lo—if such a concept even exists—from the 4/4 beat, replete with tambourine, which gives way to more of a shuffling drum track, with off-beat piano and choppy guitar. It's all very disco and not even in the glittery Ke$ha sense, but in more of a '90s UK house sense—like the guys heard that dance music was the big thing now, but didn't bother doing the research to update their mental framework for what exactly that phrase entails in the year 2011.
To their credit, the song's no worse for being out of step. It's a very nice club-ready ode to unconditional love, Cee Lo shouting out the woman who "puts up with all [his] shit" and "still loves [him] anyway," over a beat that's all hands-in-the-air release and general good vibrations. Cee Lo's voice sounds lovely as always, double-tracked over itself on the chorus with over an octave separating the two lines in what is undoubtedly the song's high point. It might not sound like an obvious hit, but then again, it's not like "Crazy" and "Fuck You" were just like everything else that was out at the time either.
More surprising, perhaps, is how little it sounds like any of the music we've come to expect from the two artists involved in its composition. But perhaps this is just the sound of two eccentric pop masterminds trying to sand the edges off one another, and as that, it's pretty decent.

Livestock Policy Initiative (PPLPI)
About the Project
Lessons Learned
Some of the 'Lessons Learned' from the PPLPI project with respect to capitalizing on the livestock sector as a means to promote poverty alleviation have been:
FAO must be a key actor in building capacities for pro-poor livestock policy change in the world at all levels - national, regional and international. Given the magnitude of this challenge it is important that FAO does still more than it has done already in this area. It does have a comparative advantage in its ability to integrate these concerns into other areas of agricultural policy, in its ability to be 'normative', and in its being a neutral, 'member-owned' body. As a matter of policy, set-aside funding for pro-poor analysis should be a part of all externally-funded FAO projects, especially ones in response to emergencies.

CARBONDALE, Ill. - Bianca Stuart automatically qualified for NCAA Indoor Nationals, as Southern Illinois University collected three individual titles and 15 top-five finishes at the SASF Invitational Friday.
Stuart, a senior from Nassau, Bahamas, advances to indoor nationals for the fourth time in her career. She won the women's long jump with a career-best and school record 21-00.50 (6.41m) on her second jump.
SIU was also strong in the women's weight throw, placing in each of the first five spots. Sasha Leeth provisionally qualified and won the event with a career-best throw of 62-01.75 (18.94m). Rickael Roach (60-08.50, 18.50m), Jeneva McCall (60-05.75, 18.43m), Gwen Berry (59-05.00, 18.11m) and Olga Ciura (54-01.75, 16.50m) rounded out the top-five.
Other top-five showings for the women included Judeka Adams (5th in long jump - 18-02.25, 5.54m) and Miracle Thompson (5th in pole vault - 10-11.75, 3.35m)
On the men's side, SIU was equally impressive in the weight throw, securing four top-five finishes. Joe Paradiso was first with a career-best 60-04.50 (18.40m), while Ryan Shumaker (56-11.50, 17.36m) followed in third, Thomas Smith (56-02.00, 17.12m) took fourth and J.C. Lambert (55-09.75, 17.01m) placed fifth.
Cody Doerflein (3rd in pole vault - 15-07.00, 4.75m), Tim Robberstad (t5th in pole vault - 14-01.25, 4.30m) and Trenton McKinney (5th in long jump - 23-07.50, 7.20m) also turned in solid performances for the men.

Manuscripts in the Kandilli Observatory
The manuscript collection in the archives of Istanbul's Kandilli Observatory sheds light on the astronomy, mathematics and geography of the Islamic world.
Human beings have enjoyed observing the skies from time immemorial, developing calendars, making navigational maps, and ordering their lives by the seasons based on their keen observations. Indeed, throughout history attempts have been made to establish links between fate and fortune and the positions of the heavenly bodies. On the Islamic Lunar calendar that was adopted with the inception of the religion, all the holy days and times of worship are determined by the position in the sky of the sun and the moon. Among the Ottomans and in the Islamic countries in general, astrology, astronomy and mathematics formed an intersecting area of investigation for men of science and religion alike, and instruments were invented and experiments conducted using new methods of observation and calculation.
Islamic astronomy, whose history is claimed in many sources to have begun in the 800's, is said to be based on the translation from the Sanskrit of the Sindhanta and of Ptolemy's Almagest (Mathematical Suntax) from the Greek. For a long time the fundamental purpose of the Islamic observatories was to construct the 'zic's or astronomical tables needed for making a calendar and to correct the older tables. Observation got under way with the founding of observatories during the reign of Mamun (813-833) in the Abbasid period when original treatises were produced in the field of astronomy. Among the scientists making the observations were al-Khwarazmî (d. ca. 850), the creator of algebra, and Habesh al-Hasîb (d. 840). A number of observatories were founded and observations made during the periods of the Buwayhids, the Fatimids, the Seljuks, the Umayyads of Spain, the Ilkhanids and the Timurids as the science of astronomy continued to develop and new books were written. Among such studies were astronomy, observations of the sun and moon, and measurement of the latitude and longitude of the various cities according to the position of the heavenly bodies since this was important for determining the direction of Mecca for prayer. The planets are also known to have been observed using the sensitive instruments at the Ibn-i Sina Observatory, which was founded some time later.
The observatory founded at Samarkand by Uluğ Bey in 1420-21 has a special place among Islamic observatories. Famous scientists of the day such as Gıyaseddin, Kadızade Rumi and Ali Kuşçu all worked under the direction of Uluğ Bey here, where observations for a long time were conducted using a meridian instrument.
The first observatory in the Ottoman world was the Istanbul Observatory set up by Takiyeddin. Founded at the behest of Murad III, it was razed again on the sultan's command when the Sheikh-ul-Islam of the time claimed that observations could bring misfortune. The second observatory, the Imperial Observatory, which started out in an apartment building on Istiklal Avenue in 1868, met the same fate as the first observatory when it destroyed in the uprising of 31 March 1909. The new government formed after the rising appointed Fatin Gökmen (1878-1955) director of the Imperial Observatory and charged him with finding a location for the new building. Gökmen decided on İcadiye Hill on the Bosphorus at Kandilli, where the present observatory still stands, and work commenced there in 1911. When the offices of chief astronomer and mosque timekeeper were abolished in 1926, the observatory took over the task of calculating the Islamic calendar. Attached to Boğaziçi University in 1982, the observatory was renamed the Kandilli Observatory and Earthquake Research Institute. During his term as director, Gökmen amassed a wealth of documents relating to the history of astronomy, mathematics and geography as well as manuscripts - either originals or translations, or compiled by the chief astronomer of their time- and left behind a valuable collection.
The oldest of the Ottoman State calendars among these manuscripts dates to 1444. Such calendars were drawn up every year in two parts, the annual calendar (takvim-i sal) starting from Nevruz (the first day of the year) and the calendar of predictions (ahkâm-ı sal). It is thought that these calendars were in the beginning put together by astronomers outside the palace and then submitted to it. Then, from the 16th century on, calendars were compiled by the chief astronomer, an official employee of the Ottoman State system, and presented to the highest men of state, namely the sultan and the grand vizier. The first part of these generally two-part calendars included historical and astronomical information. The earliest calendars, for example, contain chronological lists of the prophets and their successors going back to Adam, as well as the Seljuk, Karamanid and Ottoman rulers, historical information, astronomical and astrological calculations. These were followed by 'signs' relating the month of the year and the day of the month; predictions based on the Sun, Moon, stars and seasons, interpretations of dreams, and even lists of foods and beverages appropriate to the time of year. The second part was the actual calendar, which generally took the form of fourteen page tables.
The most important extant observatory collection of such studies can be found today in the archives of the Boğaziçi University Kandilli Observatory and Earthquake Research Institute. The efforts initiated some time ago to bring this most important collection of the Islamic world to the light of day have recently borne fruit. The calendars, astronomical yearbooks, and calendars of predictions compiled by the chief Ottoman astronomers in the one and only such collection in Turkey, which was started by the founder, Mehmed Fatin Gökmen, of the Kandilli Observatory, or, as it was originally known, the Imperial Observatory, have now been made available to historians of science in a catalogue. The Arabic, Persian and Ottoman originals of this collection of manuscripts, consisting of 1340 works in 828 volumes, were examined individually and organized by Prof. Dr. Günay Kut, founding chairman of the University's Department of Turkish Language and Literature, and published in the form of a book, Kandilli Observatory Manuscripts, by the Boğaziçi University Publishing House with the support of the Elginkan Foundation. This study of Turkey's only collection of astronomical manuscripts contains examples of everything from the oldest Ottoman calendars to 'ahkâms' (predictions of the future based on the position of the heavenly bodies) and horoscopes. Including some rare and unique specimens and some very old dated copies, this collection of manuscript works is considered one of a few of its kind in the whole world.

AT&T Motorola Atrix 4G now just $99.99 with new two-year contract
It seems like with each day that goes by we report on more and more price cuts and generally great deals on smartphones. And that can only be a good thing for you, the consumer. If you don't jump and buy something the second it becomes available, you'll probably find a few good options of getting it cheaper than the original 'list price' in a few weeks (sometimes even from launch, if you're okay with buying your stuff from third party retailers such as Amazon and not direct from carriers).
Here we have another case of the above. AT&T now sells the Motorola Atrix 4G for only $99.99 with a new two-year contract. That's half the price the carrier was asking when the device launched in March. We've seen some nice price cuts for this handset in the meantime, but this is the first time that AT&T itself has changed the price. So this is especially for those of you who prefer buying phones from carriers.
The laptop dock for the Atrix is also cheaper now at $299 (as opposed to $499), so perhaps you should consider getting it as well. Even if you're just after the phone, head on over to AT&T now and place your order.
The Motorola Atrix 4G has a 4-inch qHD (960×540) capacitive touchscreen, a dual-core 1 GHz Nvidia Tegra 2 processor, 1 GB of RAM, 16 GB of internal storage space further expandable via microSD, a 5 MP autofocus camera with LED flash and 720p HD video recording, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, GPS, and a massive 1930 mAh battery. The Atrix 4G runs Android 2.2 Froyo with Motoblur.

Get the Motorola Atrix 4G on Amazon for $99.99 as well.

How to Make a Guy Regret Losing You
He has probably dumped you for his various reasons. Maybe it's for a new girl, or he needs time; it could be anything. Whatever it is, you'll be wanting him to regret losing you.
1Be social. Stick with a bunch of friends, go on outings, join clubs, meet new people, try new things! Show him that your life doesn't revolve around him, and other people need you too.
2Be beautiful. Maybe it's time for a new haircut, or try that new top, or wear a different shade of gloss. Walk confidently or smile more warmly. Let him see that you're beautiful, and he's just let something gorgeous slip out of his hands.
3Be kind. Who wouldn't want a girl who's known to be sweet and kind to everyone? Every other guy would be jealous too. Make an effort to help people, or talk to the new person, or smile at someone who looks down. Talk to people, but also listen to anyone who might want to talk.
4Be funny. Not in the "Ha-ha, I made that person look like an idiot." way, but genuinely friendly and funny. Everyone wants to be around someone who makes them happy, so why not make them laugh? If cracking jokes or making the atmosphere lighter isn't your forte, laugh at their jokes instead. It needn't be a huge booming laugh; a giggle would work too. Laughing for them makes the other feel appreciated. Make him regret losing the light of his life.
5Be patient. Sadly, he might be taking his time making up his mind whether he is regretting that he lost you. It could take some time, so it's important to be patient. It could be good for you two to have some time off, before he returns to you. It's good to be patient; trying to force him back to you probably won't work. And who knows? Maybe you'll stop liking him, and then he'll really regret losing you.
Community Q&A
- Simply smile, always show that you're happy. This may be one of the reasons he will want you back.
- If he truly wants you, he will make every effort to win you back. He needs to work for your love so that he can understand the value of having you in his life.
- It's his loss for losing someone as unique and special as you are! So don't feel sorry for yourself... there are other guys out there.
- Show him you are better off without him and you don't care anymore.
- If all else fails try to just enjoy being single.
- Be friendly with him; don't ignore him on purpose, because it's rude.
- If he was confused, and he asks about the breakup, simply say "whatever." It makes no sense, but it drives people crazy!
- Don't go around dating every single male you see; it won't be any good for your reputation.
- Flirting a little is okay, but flirting outrageously is a no-no. It makes you look loose and disloyal.
- Sometimes, he feels he has nothing to regret. Harsh as it is, sometimes a guy won't regret leaving you because he has his own reasons you may not understand.

I'm gonna miss Radio Shack Truely an American ICON. AUVIO is a great brand. Since my first pair of Auvio Buds, I have been addicted to the independent sounds of every instrument so precise, so solid and across the whole spectrum of octives! I hope the end of Radio Shack is not the end of Auvio...
Nice and simple Wld give it 5 but needs a little tweakin definitely needs a widget and the play controls don't work with my player and it's not the greatest looking app either but it's a simple solid equaliser good job guys
BEST EQ ... NO LAME INFO LEACHERS Best of 6 downloaded and tried..... try it for yourself. If your like me. .. no-one could lead you otherwise.. +4 star from a sceptical
Pretty good I love it, it's a huge difference between the skullcandy head phones. But I have one question, why does the equalizer keep turning off after a certain time?? I mean the equalizer doesn't always stay on and that affect me sometimes because a song could play and it may have killer bass and then it turns off. That gets annoying after a while. What can I do to make it stop??
Nice app if... Great app but its pretty useless if you have a phone running a modified version of android or a stock ROM with an eq built in (basically any phone with that comes stock with 4.4 KitKat)
Meh.. I am not sure if it's my expectation of what Auvio products/apps are supposed to do, or if their products are just a waste of time. The sound just stopped coming through the earbuds 2 days ago, and I bought them 7/5/13 (extremely short lifespan), the rocker button did NOT control music as I thought it would (I explained to salesman that was the feature I was MOST interested in), and the app is just basically an equalizer (I seemed to think it would work with headphones to control the music) #notRecommending

WOot. New pictures of Kev's kids surfaced this week. Sean and Jayden JJ are kept in a hyperbaric chamber to protect them from the ecosystem in their mom's groin, but every once in a while Kevin takes them to the beach.
The boys are growing up strong. Even though they are only 1 and 2 years old, I hear they are sleeping with celebrities at a 5th grade level. Also, you can tell that Dad has big things in mind for their futures, given the fashion forward hairstyles they wear.
All's well in the Federline kingdom. Kevin's 3 starring role on One Tree Hill was so inspiring the writers strike ended on principle alone. All that court shit keeps humming along. Kevin's lawyers have been aided significantly by Discovery Rule 3.4(a), aka the "trailer trash skank bitches GTFO of court" rule.
Britney has escaped from Skankatraz! To our readers in the Westwood/Los Angeles area: be on the lookout for a white female resembling a bloated whale carcas. Will likely be drinking Kentucky Gentlemen out of the bottle or getting humped by a skeezy dude in an alley.
Here's the story.
Britney escaped from UCLA medical center by making a rope ladder out of hospital issued panties. The doctors were trying to relieve her slag whore symptoms by making her wear underpants but apparently she was stashing them under the bed, along with generic oxycontin and clown makeup.
Britney should be considered armed and extremely dangerous. Do not approach unless you want to get your dick bitten off!
Britney Spears has been taken to the hospital for the second time this month. This casts doubt on my theory that she's suffering from menstrual tremors, caused by a lack of vaginal tension. Here's Brit's police escort, from the Anti-CrabSkank detail:
New episodes of House just started again, so I am back to being a medical expert. Here's my list of things Brit is probably suffering from:
- Addiction to painkillers- Fuglitis (untreatable)- Delerium Tremens- Dog herpes- Morbid Obesity with chronic need for attention
There's nothing funny about the death of Heath Ledger. And apparently even Brit is aware of this. I guess spending her waking life embodying tragedy has given her insight on the matter. When she heard about the young actor's death she immediately drove to the convenience store at 4:15 am to buy Fiddle Faddle and a pregnancy test. But she was gonna do that anyway. The touching part was that she made the trip in full Joker makeup:

With the Los Angeles Lakers only having won 19 games so far this season, the storied franchise appears to be a major player in the 2014 NBA Draft. One player that the team is rumored to be targeting in the draft is Australia's Dante Exum. Apparently, the interest is mutual between Exum and the Lakers with the Australian phenom possible angling to force his way to Los Angeles according to Sean Deveney of Sporting News on Feb. 26:
But would Exum go so far as to try to angle his way onto the Lakers, who currently have the fifth-worst record in the NBA? That's the concern among some front-office executives around the league.
At this point in time, the Lakers would be selecting a player in the top five of 2014 NBA Draft. Although Exum has only recently burst onto the basketball scene in the United States, the Australian has made a considerable impression and will likely be selected taken at some point early in the first round of the draft.
Many anticipate the upcoming draft to be one of the most talented in recent memory. Plenty of potential superstars may be making the jump to the NBA with Duke's Jabari Parker, Kentucky's Julius Randle, Kansas' Andrew Wiggins and Joel Embiid leading the way.
With that being said, Exum will have some tough competition from in order to be drafted by the Lakers if a player like Parker, Embiid or Wiggins is available.
Fortunately, Exum might have a few things going for him. Exum has already signed with Kobe Bryant's agent, Rob Pelinka, and plans to talk to the five-time NBA champion in the near future. The Lakers appear to think highly of the Australian prospect and may roll the dice on him if he's still on the board on June 26.
