Fifty years ago, in June 1964, Woods Hole Oceanographic Institute (WHOI) commissioned the Deep Submersible Vehicle (DSV) Alvin. As one of the world's first manned deep ocean research vessels, it quickly ended up on some of the most critical and fascinating missions in naval research history. After several major retrofits over the years, the Alvin celebrates its 50th birthday this weekend with no plans to slow down.
The Alvin was named after Allyn Vine, a geo-physicist at WHOI who pushed the US to develop a manned submersible rather than rely on remote methods of deep-sea exploration. As the geophysics magazine Eos notes, Vine strongly supported sending real humans into the depths of the sea. "I find it difficult to imagine what kind of instrument should have been put on the Beagle instead of Charles Darwin," the researcher said in 1957.
Alvin was designed by General Mills on a $498,500 contract. It was able to dive 6,000 feet (or about 2,000 meters) and contained a 6-foot diameter steel sphere for pilots and scientists. In one of its first missions in 1966, the submersible was used to search for a lost hydrogen bomb that was dropped when the plane carrying it crashed. Barely a decade later, in 1973, the steel personnel sphere on the Alvin was replaced with a titanium one, which extended its drive range to 12,000 feet (or 3,650 meters) and the Alvin set out to be one of the first vehicles to explore the Mid-Atlantic Ridge, some 3,000 meters down.
As Eos magazine (PDF) writes:
Alvin is perhaps most celebrated for investigations in 1977 and 1979 of seafloor hydrothermal systems and their associated chemo synthetic ecosystems, including giant tubeworms and clams, on the Galápagos Rift, one of the most profound discoveries of the late 20th century [Corliss et al., 1979]. The existence of distinct seafloor chemosynthetic ecosystems, which thrive on energy stored in reduced chemicals from the Earth rather than energy from the Sun, revolutionized our views of where and how life can exist on Earth and perhaps elsewhere in the universe.
In 1983 Alvin again made a striking discovery, finding chemosynthetic life in the cold water of the West Florida Escarpment.
Although those discoveries changed the scientific world, the general population's attention was grabbed when Alvin was used to explore the wreckage of the Titanic, first using a towed cable system, and then deploying the remotely operated vehicle Jason Jr. to penetrate the sunken ship's hull.
Alvin was taken out of service in December 2010 so that it could receive a major overhaul. Among the many changes, the personnel sphere was increased to 6.5 feet in diameter, and it was made of a Titanium that permits the Alvin to dive to about 21,300 feet (or 6,500 meters) deep. Its first mission since the retrofit took place in the Gulf of Mexico this year.
To commemorate Alvin's 50 years, Woods Hole Oceanographic Institute shared some of its photos of the submersible with Ars Technica.
Alvin is a submersible owned by Woods Hole Oceanographic Institute that can bring three humans down into the deep sea to collect marine samples.

"In June 1964, Deep Submergence Vehicle Alvin was commissioned on the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution dock. The dream of building a human-occupied deep ocean research submersible began eight years earlier, when participants at a symposium in Washington drafted a resolution that the US develop a national program for undersea vehicles."
Here is a cut drawing of DSV Alvin.
in 1966, the Alvin was sent to recover a hydrogen bomb that had been accidentally dropped 2,850 feet down at the bottom of the Mediterranean Sea.
The Alvin has an emergency release mechanism.

An unidentified adult male was caught trespassing at by employees but when the police arrived, the subject was unconscious. Reportedly, employees at the Central Transport Trucking company discovered the man trespassing and he stated he had a gun but the employees did not back off. Instead, they struggled with the subject and then restrained him until the police arrived. When the police arrived, they rushed the man to the hospital where he was pronounced dead. It is unclear at this time whether there really was a gun and whether the man died at the scene or at the hospital. I suspect that had there been a gun, then why would unarmed employees rush him over stolen goods? It is also unclear at this time if race was a factor. The incident occurred just before 8 a.m. on Sunday.

Cell Processors build the Kaleidoscope for Oil & Gas
A new report from Francisco Ortigosa, Repsol YPF talks about the problems oil and gas companies have visualizing data from the bottom of the ocean, particularly the US Gulf of Mexico. Their solution? Combining the Mare Nostrum supercomputer with Cell Processors (just like the PS3 or the RoadRunner) to create the "Kaleidoscope Project".
The Kaleidoscope Project encompasses a simultaneous innovation of hardware and software to achieve a petascale solution to seismic imaging using off-the-shelf technology. Software research focuses on the quality of algorithms and avoids shortcuts or tradeoffs common because of lack of computing power. Kaleidoscope is to ensure the maximum possible imaging quality regardless of the computer power required. And of course speed and power, which are the two main factors for the project to succeed, are guaranteed while ensuring low cost because it's coming from a massive market.
via Seismic visualization supercomputer brings subsalt data into the light.

I really need confirmation right now.
If not I might lose my mind again.
I am starting to hate who I am, and I should'nt. It's all because of Verny Vern and her biased concept of personality. I am ashamed of who I am, and I feel like I can do nothing but sit in the bathroom and drown in my own blood.
Aside from that, this day is too slow. I need to eat and do some chores. After that I hope I get some sleep.
I really want to hurt some people in this school, if only I could. I desperately need to go to Mock Trial tomorrow, I'm bored and irritated. Instead of forcing myself to laugh it off, I'll just ride it out; don't worry I won't slit my wrists. I wish I could get some sleep, and I thankfully got some since school was delayed once again (Even though it should'nt have been).
Most eventful part of today is that I have to do this assignment in English. We have to enter a poem and an essay for this contest; winner gets grants for college and stuff...At first it was optional, and I didn't think I should because I am a sucky writer, but now I have to. I was thinking about entering "The Hidden Monsters Within" (If it fit the qualifications) but I don't really want to. Don't want to have to pull up my account and stuff, don't want people in my business. Instead I'm making this other one called "Blend". I hope it'll be worthy of something; I don't know what I'm going to do the essay on. I was thinking that I was gonna do it on a tragedy sparked from ignorance and hate. No, not the death of Marcus Jones. I'm finished 'grieving' him, but I still hope his sould, God rest it, is at peace.
Still. I hate my school, I hate the people I'm around, I hate the way my Uncle's mother talks to me, and I hate alot of other things.
But that hate does not corrupt my thinking. I've crunched yet another song (for some reason, my iPod is messed up) and I hope I can make it this worlds' theme...But it is probably too extreme for a PG-13 site. I doubt it, though, I PM'd Adam and he should give me the Yay or Ne on it.
Only hold love for Jesus and y'all.
And my mother and father.
Enjoy the rest of your days.

What is Cultural History? has established itself as an essential guide to what cultural historians do and how they do it. Now fully updated in its second edition, leading historian Peter Burke offers afresh his accessible guide to the past, present and future of cultural history, as it has been practised not only in the English-speaking world, but also in Continental Europe, Asia, South America and elsewhere. Burke begins by providing a discussion of the 'classic' phase of cultural history, associated with Jacob Burckhardt and Johan Huizinga, and of the Marxist reaction, from Frederick Antal to Edward Thompson. He then charts the rise of cultural history in more recent times, concentrating on the work of the last generation, often described as the 'New Cultural History'. He places cultural history in its own cultural context, noting links between new approaches to historical thought and writing and the rise of feminism, postcolonial studies and an everyday discourse in which the idea of culture plays an increasingly important part. The new edition also surveys the very latest developments in the field and considers the directions cultural history may be taking in the twenty-first century. The second edition of What is Cultural History? will continue to be an essential textbook for all students of history as well as those taking courses in cultural, anthropological and literary studies.

Why "Fake It Until You Become It" Should Be Every Starting Entrepreneur's Mantra
by Stella Fayman on October 8, 2012
The other day, I watched this fabulously inspiring TED Talk by sociologist Amy Cuddy. I highly recommend watching it, but just in case you don't have time, the gist is that mimicking powerful body language leads to actually feeling more powerful. This can influence your perception of yourself and others' perception of you. In stressful situations such as job interviews where body language can determine someone's split second first impression of you, submissive body language can make you appear less powerful and competent.
Applied to entrepreneurship, this can go a long way. While watching this Ted Talk, I was nodding my head the entire time because to be successful, or more importantly, to appear to be successful requires a high degree of confidence. When I entered the startup world as a 22 year old college grad, I had no idea what I was doing. Joining my first startup, I had to talk to old school business owners and convince them they should compare their payment processors online. I learned pretty quickly that unless I projected the confidence and knowledge of a 40 year old payments veteran, I would not be taken seriously.
Similarly, the first time I pitched my startup, I had to somehow recall great orators of generations past in order to appear somewhat coherent. I took deep breaths and pretended I was someone else way more comfortable (and competent) than my 22 year old self. This technique ALWAYS worked: somehow people thought I was a good public speaker, and I got invited to participate on many panels and to give many talks. Once I showed up to a conference for college students as the keynote speaker and the registration people did a double take when they found out I was doing the keynote (they assumed I was just another attendee).
What's the takeaway here? Investors, potential customers, basically anyone judging the entrepreneur or the company wants to feel that they will be safe in bestowing trust. They want to know you'll be around for a while and that you know what you're doing. Appearing confident in all forms of communication will go a long with with all parties. If you don't know the answer to a question, it's always better to say "That's a great question! I'd love to take a look at my data and give you an answer tomorrow," rather than fumbling, looking defeated and coming up with a half ass answer.
Even if you don't have the confidence of a celebrity, you can always fake it. Fake it while you pitch…fake it while you network, and soon enough you'll discover you had that confidence in you all along.

- An exciting educational opportunity for only 250 incoming freshmen and sophomores.
- Open to all students in SAISD
- Operates as a school within a school; hosted on the Sam Houston High School campus.
- Teams of students work in a 1:1 student to computer environment, researching, communicating and solving real problems in our community.
- Project-based learning brings relevance to learning
- Collaborative approach prepares students to succeed in life, college and the careers of tomorrow.
Project-based learning (PBL) uses the latest technology and inquiry to engage students with issues and questions that are relevant to their lives. In New Tech classrooms, teachers design rigorous projects tied to state and district standards and customize them to real world applications and the interests of the learners. Students then work in teams to acquire and apply knowledge and skills to solve problems. For example, English and Social Studies classes can be integrated so that both groups are learning the same content in a team teaching environment.
With access to Web-enabled computers and the latest in collaborative learning technology, every student becomes a self-directed learner who no longer needs to rely primarily on teachers or textbooks for knowledge and direction. We use an online learning management system to create a vibrant network which helps students, teachers, and parents connect to each other, and to student projects, in San Antonio and across the country.

WASHINGTON — With crude oil prices going higher, the U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA) has increased the average regular gasoline retail price forecast for the third quarter to $3.49 per gallon, 10 cents higher than last month's Short-Term Energy Outlook.
EIA expects regular gasoline retail prices to average $3.53 per gallon in 2012 and $3.33 per gallon in 2013.
The Brent crude oil spot price will average about $103 per barrel during the second half of 2012, about $3.50 per barrel higher than in last month's Outlook, and is forecast to fall to an average of $100 per barrel in 2013. The projected West Texas Intermediate (WTI) crude spot oil price discount to Brent crude oil narrows from about $14 in third-quarter 2012 to $9 by late 2013, assuming certain gross domestic product (GDP) growth.
U.S. total crude oil production is expected to average 6.3 million barrels per day (bbl/d) in 2012, an increase of 0.6 million bbl/d from last year, and the highest level of production since 1997. Production increases to 6.7 million bbl/d in 2013, EIA forecasts.
Drought conditions affecting corn harvests and prices throughout the Midwest pushed ethanol production lower, and EIA has reduced its 2012 forecast to 870,000 bbl/d, or 13.3 billion gallons. But the agency expects production to recover in the second half of 2013.
Natural gas working inventories ended July at an estimated 3.2 trillion cubic feet (Tcf), about 17% above the same time last year. EIA expects the Henry Hub natural gas spot price, which averaged $4 per million British thermal units (MMBtu) in 2011, to average $2.67 per MMBtu in 2012 and $3.34 per MMBtu in 2013.

One thing Peaches Christ and I have always had in common is our desire to celebrate our artistic influences loudly. The very essence of Peaches' Midnight Mass is the appreciation and worship of the movies that inspired and motivated her to become the icon of fright she is today. Similarly, a lot of my articles here on the site, including the popular Cult Filmmakers You Should Know series, are all carefully planned to pay tribute to the avant-garde and daring artists that I love.
While film is definitely a huge motivator for the two of us, Peaches and I are also rather multi-faceted in our appreciation of the arts. Recently, Ms. Christ and I got together to discuss praising different aspects of the performance community, and we kept returning to the idea of legendary drag performers. As Phillip Ford mentioned in my Vegas in Space piece, there was an era when drag was certainly not the celebrated part of the LGBT community it is today. For a whole generation, the mere idea of gender-bending was considered to be an outlaw act. Certainly, a far cry from the RuPaul's Drag Race-era we exist in now. But, because of a plethora of drag pioneers like Divine, Charles Busch, and more, the concept of this fringe performance art began to creep its way into the theatre and movies, creating a veritable cult of its own.
So, in the spirit of the Cult Filmmakers series, Peaches and I would like to open to you the Drag Dossier. Through this series, both myself and special guest writers will reveal to you the stories of some of the most famous, avant-garde, and unique performers in drag culture. Hold tight, my dear children of the popcorn, because it's going to be a glamorous ride!
For our first installment, I am beyond thrilled to highlight one of the very best of the community:
The legendary Miss Coco Peru.

What followed, as Warner and his mother describe it, was a "kangaroo court" campus trial where a hostile administrator attacked Warner's witnesses as just standing up for a fraternity brother. He was found guilty and kicked off campus — and banned from any state school — for at least three years.
Warner is hardly the only student accused of sexual misconduct to claim unfair treatment. But his case took an unusual twist. After his quick campus trial, a Grand Forks police detective began investigating possible criminal charges against Warner. According to a police report, the detective caught Warner's accuser in a series of lies about the incident and her previous communications with Warner. Multiple witnesses contradicted her story.
Eventually the police brought charges — against her.
Not even in the famous Duke lacrosse case, Warner and others supporting him noted, did law enforcement go so far as to file false reporting charges against an accuser after a rape case collapsed.
Still, for months UND refused to reconsider Warner's case, arguing the results of the police investigation did not amount to "substantial new information."
It wasn't until last October, after a campaign led by Warner's mother was starting to inspire critical letters from alumni, that the university relented and overturned Warner's sanctions. A UND official wrote the original decision should stand but the process for allowing him to report new information fell short of the "minimum demands of fundamental fairness."
Not that Warner plans to return to the school.
"I'm actually a big Bison fan now," he says, referring to UND's rivals, North Dakota State. He's driving a delivery truck for a national shipping company, trying to pay back legal bills to his family, and unsure if he'll ever return to college.
Warner's accuser has since left the state; a warrant is open for her arrest. (The Associated Press was unable to locate the woman, and could find no evidence she has withdrawn the accusation. AP's policy is not to identify alleged sexual assault victims). UND dean of students Cara Halgren declined to comment on Warner's case but said the school tries to balance the interests of all students.
"There's no doubt some of these cases are quite complicated," she said.
It is a fact that some rape allegations are false. How many is hard to say. University of Massachusetts-Boston psychologist David Lisak looked closely at 136 rape allegations reported over 10 years at one unidentified university in the Northeast and concluded 6 percent of allegations proved demonstrably false. That was separate from another 45 percent that did not proceed to prosecution or campus disciplinary action, either for insufficient evidence or because the complaint was withdrawn.
Russlynn Ali, the assistant secretary of education for civil rights, who signed the "Dear Colleague" letter, emphasized OCR's guidance is intended to protect victims and clarify college administrators' responsibilities toward them. "It is not intended to trump the rights of the accused," she said.
But there are some who worry that Title IX rules could force a rush to judgment. Schools must act immediately to protect alleged victims even while the case for discipline takes its course.
Daniel Swinton, director of student conduct and academic integrity at Vanderbilt, says the requirement colleges take interim steps "makes us nervous because you're starting to sanction or hold someone accountable, at least temporarily, based on an accusation."
"What if this is near finals, and the student is accused, but there's not evidence yet he's guilty? Do you expel them, have them miss the semester?" said Gwendolyn Jordan Dungy, executive director of NASPA, a group for student affairs professionals. What happens "when you want to make a judgment about discipline or removing somebody, you need more evidence, and you really don't have that luxury of an investigation?"
Another concern: Colleges must offer victims — and not just the accused — the right to appeal an unfavorable decision. It's a right victims wouldn't enjoy in criminal courts.

Concussions in Youth Athletes - Indiana
Indiana law is located at sections 20-34-7-1 through 20-34-7-5 of the Indiana Code under the title dealing with education and the chapter on student health and safety. (Ind. Code. §§ 20-34-7-1 through 20-34-7-5).
The Indiana law requires that the Department of Education provide guidelines, information and forms to each school to be distributed to coaches, parents and students regarding concussions, and requires parents/guardians annually sign acknowledgment of receipt of information on concussions before their child may participate in athletic activities. A student suspected of sustaining a head injury must be removed from the activity immediately and may not return to play until written clearance from a health care professional is received. A high school player removed from play may not return to competition prior the passage of twenty- four (24) hours. The law also defines "organizing entity" as any person that operates a recreational, intramural or extracurricular athletic or sports program for individuals less than twenty (20) years of age and who use a facility, field, park or other property maintained by the state, a political subdivision or agency or instrumentality. Section 20-43-7-6 is related to football, education courses for coaches, and a waiver of liability for coaches completing training so long as they do not commit gross negligence or willful or wanton misconduct.
The official version of these sections are currently available online at Title 20, Article 34 Student health and Safety and Chapter 7 Student Athletes):
The official version of §20-26-14-1 can be viewed online at:

MAKING MEMORIES WHILE HAVING FUN has been the goal for the DAVE LANDEO BAND! For the last several years, Dave and his entourage have played everything from wedding receptions, corporate events, festivals, holiday parties, fraternity/sorority events, birthdays, tailgates and anything in between. Together with his solo, duo and band act, he has tallied over 3,000 shows!
The various performances have enabled him and his band to meet people all over the US and abroad. These experiences have been the groundwork for the band's professional attitude and positive approach.
Dave resides in the Low Country of Charleston, SC, being a transplant from Tennessee. His first professional gigs came at age 16 in his hometown of Nashville. He then ran through a string of touring bands based out of Knoxville, where he graduated from the University of Tenn., was an officer in his fraternity, and served in the United States Marine Corps Reserve. Knoxville remains a home at heart and is the town where he expanded his musical endeavors as a band leader, lead vocalist, lead guitarist, bassist and drummer with various groups, as well as accomplished solo act, throughout the years, and won accolades such as Best Male Vocalist (in consecutive years) and Best Bassist in area media awards.
Joining him in the band are BRYON MOORE on Bass Guitar and Lead/Back Vocals, CHRISTY LANDEO on Lead/Back Vocals, BOBBY HOGG on Lead Guitars, and MARKUS HELANDER & MATT JOB on Drums and Percussions. Bryon can mesh a Steely Dan bass riff while carrying the lead vocal, Christy brings lead vocals and enthusiasm to everything from 80's power rock songs to today's party dance tunes. Bobby performs his flavor of electric leads over songs such as a standard bluegrass hit to a James Brown funk groove.... Matt and Markus bring a strong rhythm arsenal to all styles the band plays. Available upon request are sax and keyboard musicians. All bringing together a strong presence with their renditions of classic pop, funk, rock, dance, country, reggae, beach and overall FUN MUSIC for their audience.
Incorporating his ability to interact with the audience, as well as perform a wide variety of music (both covers & originals), Dave and the band's chameleon approach is nothing if not entertaining. Making sure a GREAT TIME is had will always be the priority of the DAVE LANDEO BAND!

They were really great! I had a lot of musician folks in the audience who were so impressed and they were so good about jamming themselves back into a small space and just were excellent. Everybody was impressed. He is such a nice guy. I sent him an email and he responded I wanted him to know how much it meant to me for him to give it his all to make a party such a success.

Mother of the Bride
DAVE LANDEO & BAND, was amazing. The Barn Event of the Smokies, said this was the Best reception that they had witnessed, in the five years, that they have been open for business. They were dancing (employees) the last half hour of the night. I have never witnessed so much "Fun & Togetherness" on a dance floor at any receptions that I have attended. I am already spreading the word and will keep your information handy to pass out to any potential clients

Thanks so much for a great show on Friday night at the barn at Carnes Crossroads!
Everyone had a good time. I didn't get a chance to talk with Dave or the band because they never even took a break!
We gave the check to Dave at the end of the concert.
Barbara N.
Hi Steve,
Sorry it has taken so long to get back to you. Dave Landeo and his entire band was great. I have never met a group of individuals so wonderful and genuinely kind to work with. Everyone raved about them at my daughters wedding. Several of my daughters friends are getting married next year and have reached out to us for their information and want them to perform at their wedding.
Thanks to everyone for making this part of the wedding so easy and enjoyable.
Stacy F.
We were very, very pleased with the Dave Landeo Band! Knowing that it wasn't their first rodeo, we let the band members do their thing, and they did a great job! Lots of people filled the dance floor, and Dave even learned the names of several of our guests, which he then included in songs. The week of the wedding, I made one phone call to go over logistics with Dave and sent him a follow-up email, but after that, he handled the rest. Having seen them perform and thoroughly exploring the band's website, it was refreshing to know that music/entertainment would be well taken care of and my attention could be directed elsewhere in the wedding-planning process. In short, the Dave Landeo Band ROCKS! And we owe the band a big thank-you for making our reception so enjoyable, danceable, and rememberable!

Thanks for hooking us up again...

Corporate 25th Anniversary Party
Thanks so much for setting us up with Dave Landeo for the SMHa 25th Anniversary Party! It was a bit daunting to not be able to anticipate what a crowd ranging in age from 21 to 81 would mutually enjoy hearing at a corporate event, but Dave has an amazing ability to read a crowd, and he certainly did so with this group. He got compliments across the board from people who enjoyed the range of songs they played and the fact that the music really complemented the event and made it fun for everyone. From the planning point of view, Dave was easy to work with, reliable and very communicative! Even when I had to change the event date and time, the process was smooth and he was right on time for everything from setting up to the party itself. Thanks for your help with this -- and for making me look good to my bosses! Expect more calls to book him, our clients were very impressed.

LOS ANGELES - UCLA (ranked #7 in both the Associated Press and the Coaches polls) opens the 2014 football season on Saturday, Aug. 30 at Noon ET/ 9 a.m. PT in Scott Stadium (61,500-grass) at the University of Virginia. The game will be televised by ESPN with Bob Wischusen, Matt Millen and Quint Kessenich on the scene. The Bruin IMG Radio Network (Chris Roberts, Matt Stevens and Wayne Cook) will radio broadcast the contest on 570am Fox Sports Radio LA. The game will also be aired on SIRIUS (Ch. 84), XM (Ch. 84).
UCLA will open in the month of August for the third straight season and will begin on the road for the fourth time in five seasons (2010 L at Kansas State, 2011 L at Houston, 2012 W at Rice, 2013 W at home over Nevada). The Bruins captured last season's opener over Nevada by a 58-20 score in the Rose Bowl. UCLA was ranked 21st in last season's pre-season AP poll. The No. 7 AP preseason ranking is the highest for the program since it was also ranked No. 7 prior to the 1998 campaign. UCLA climbed as high as No. 7 in the 2005 regular season poll. UCLA is 62-28-5 in season-opening games in 95 seasons of play
Third-year head coach Jim Mora, who led the Bruins to victory in the Sun Bowl over Virginia Tech to match the school record for wins in a season (10-3) welcomes back 18 (8 defensive, 8 offensive, 2 specialists) returning starters. The coaching staff was kept virtually intact, with Mike Tuiasosopo (OLB/Special Teams) joining the group for Spring practice. Kennedy Polamalu (Running Backs) was added to the staff in time to coach for the Sun Bowl. Jeff Ulbrich moved up to Defensive Coordinator and will also handle the inside linebackers.
This will be the first meeting between the Bruins and the Cavaliers on the gridiron. Both teams ended the 2013 season playing against Virginia Tech. UCLA bested the Hokies 42-12 in the Sun Bowl, while UVa dropped a 16-6 decision. UVa produced a 2-10 mark last year. One of the wins came in the 2013 season-opener over BYU in Charlottesville. Head Coach Mike London is entering his fifth season. Safety Anthony Harris ranked No. 1 in the nation in 2013 with eight interceptions. Running back Kevin Parks powered his way to over 1,000 yards rushing a year ago.
UCLA is 17-13 all-time vs. teams in the current Atlantic Coast Conference -- Virginia Tech (1-0), Duke 1-0), Florida State (0-1), Miami (2-1), NC State (2-0), Pitt (9-5), Syracuse (2-6).
UCLA's home opener will take place on Saturday, Sept. 6 at 7pm in the Rose Bowl against Memphis. Season tickets for 2014 are on sale at uclabruins.com/tickets. The Bruins have six home games this season at the Rose Bowl – Sept. 6 vs. Memphis, Oct. 4 vs. Utah, Oct. 11 vs. Oregon, Nov. 1 vs. Arizona, Nov. 22 vs. USC and Nov. 28 vs. Stanford.

Whether treating a toddler in an emergency or supporting a teen through chemotherapy treatments, we are dedicated to the care of each patient. It's through teamwork at every level of Children's Healthcare of Atlanta and with you, the family, that we are able to achieve excellence in pediatric care.
See more about us
With a proven track record of providing world-class care to patients in more than 30 pediatric specialties, we are a model for other pediatric hospitals. Infants, teens and young adults belong in a children's hospital where they can get specialized treatment from caregivers who know the important differences between children and adults.
See our clinical services
Research is a cornerstone of the Children's Healthcare of Atlanta mission to enhance the lives of children. In conjunction with Emory University School of Medicine, Georgia Tech and Morehouse, Children's seeks answers to the most challenging childhood medical conditions through teaching and research.
We all want happy, healthy kids. But as a busy parent, helping your kids eat well and stay active can be a challenge.
At Strong4Life, created by Children's Healthcare of Atlanta, our doctors, nutritionists and wellness experts create fun, easy ways to help your kids eat, move and live healthier. From picky eaters to passionate gamers, we have a slew of simple tips by experts who understand, because we're parents, too.

Medical Director William T. Mahle, M.D., leads the Cardiac Clinical Research team.
At Sibley Heart Center Cardiology, more than 45 pediatric cardiologists care for kids from birth to age 21. We provide services in 22 outpatient locations and 40 hospitals throughout Georgia.

From "Buzzy"—an electronic "bee" that takes away the pain of injections—to a heart valve that grows with its patients, Children's Healthcare of Atlanta is examining new ways to make medical devices that are the perfect fit for pediatric patients.
Whether it's pacemakers for the heart or renal dialysis machines, much of the medical equipment for pediatric patients is intended for adults. That means—similar to ill-fitting hospital gowns—it might get the job done, but with a lack of precision.
In addition, because kids are always growing, these medical devices often lack flexibility. Instead, patients often have to go through multiple rounds of surgery to replace outgrown heart stents and valves, along with numerous other implants. And that puts them at needless risk for bleeding, infection and clots.
But Children's Healthcare of Atlanta, in partnership with the Georgia Institute of Technology and Emory University, is working to fix this situation. And last year, they created the Atlanta Pediatric Device Consortium.
This program, newly funded with $1.8 million grant from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, is a collaborative effort between doctors, scientists and engineers to find ways to build equipment, implants and devices that are scaled and designed for kids.
"This is a win-win for everyone," said Kevin Maher, a consortium co-director, and pediatric cardiologist at Children's. "We're not dealing with pie-in-the-sky stuff, but concrete ideas with solid scientific principles that will produce better and safer therapies for children. The long-term aim being improved health for children; it doesn't get any better than that."
There are three key projects that are slated for the center's first wave of innovation, said Maher. They include:
But the center is also looking at a myriad of high-tech and low-tech health care solutions for kids—from a new eye chart that uses hand motions instead of the alphabet, to a rapid test for pneumonia—that could be outfitted with a modified whistle or a kazoo.
"This has been very rewarding on a professional and personal level," said Maher, who has three children himself. "I've taken care of very sick cardiac patients, and often, I've thought (in certain situations), 'There's got to be a much better way to do this.'
"Now we have the opportunity and environment to actually find a way," he said, "and invent a solution."

The great thing about it is, is that XTEX has super low cost equity capital. I hope we see either a seondary offering or a private placement that allows them to raise about $300 million in equity capital. I figure they could raise $300 million between a secondary offering of around 3 million units and a private placement of around 5 million units, assuming a price of say $40/unit. This would allow them to fund the Barnett Shale project as well as the El Paso project and leave only the Louisiana expansion project unfunded as far as equity capital is concerned. They have a lot of work to fund these projects, but clearly, they know what they are doing. What may end up happening is a series of secondary and private placement offerings that they string out over a year or 18 months. Kind of hard to float that many units on the public of private capital markets. Even with generous placement prices and average lock up restrictions, I doubt that the private guys like Kayne, Fiduciary, Tortoise and Claymore could swallow 5 or 6 million units.

TC TO LADY ASHBURTON; 11 January 1854; DOI: 10.1215/lt-18540111-TC-LA-01; CL 29: 11-13
Chelsea, 11 jany, 1854—
Dear Lady,—I have not, naturally, the least particle of news for you, from without or from within; nothing, but this poor symbol that you are still in my thoughts; like a bright presence walking thro' gloomy caverns and sepulchral halls, willing to cheer the poor inhabitant. Be thanked at least; thanks are all I have to give, in my extreme impoverishment,—or ever shall have, as I often think;—and surely these are not worth much from such a quarter. But you will have it so; you are very good, and resolute to be good.
I have kept myself quite alone; not seeing anybody, nor intending it for some time. I do not abandon myself to useless emotions: but there is much to be sorted up, much to be cleared away; and, in a languid sad manner, I concern myself daily with that, as the preliminary thing. By Heaven's blessing, I hope yet to do some work, in the years that may remain: no other consolation is conceivable; no other use or advantage has Life, for a long time past, presented to me:—one gets very grim, on those terms; and has need that the sacred fountains be again opened in one's stony heart. A little free speech with you, I often think, speech at which no god or man could take offence if they understood it, might be a great solacement to me: but that is not to be had, owing to confused impediments, nor perhaps ever will. Well, well; we must take the other way of it, then; the other way too has worth which we will not part with if we can help it,—no.
Unluckily this Fredk is so totally alien to my humour at present! I foresee I shall have a furious wrestle with that subject, if it ever come to anything; wrestle at which I could tremble in any humour. But there is no help;—nor, except in oneself, is there any hindrance possible: that too should be a comfort!
You will write to us when once your gayeties are over; tell us that you have got unharmed thro' them, which is the chief interest they can have, but a real one, just now. And about the end of the month you are coming up to Parlt, are you not? That also is truly all the interest I take in the sublime assembly, with its Turk wars, Palmerston explanations &c &c.1 A most wearisome amt of empty boxes to me otherwise!— Come, then;—and comfort poor Prince Albert, who is really getting into turbid water at present.2 Poor soul: Louis XVI said once, "What have I done to be so loved?" Then (probably), "What to be so hated?" The answer in both cases, "Nothing!"—
Adieu, O beautiful Friend, beautiful and good.— T.C.

How to translate LXDE components
|This page is outdated and is only kept for historical reference.
The LXDE Project is currently discussing how to make it easier for translators to contribute. At the moment, Pootle is being used.
In the meantime you can contribute by editing .po files. In the following a description how to do this. It is an early draft, please add information and correct it, if you find mistakes.
- 1 How to translate .po-files for LXDE components
- 2 Translating LXLauncher tabs
- 3 Programs to use for translation
How to translate .po-files for LXDE components
Use Pootle
- read the Pootle crash course
- visit http://pootle.lxde.org
- register an account and activate it
- get used to the interface
- to be able to add the translated strings to the project file the language has to be "maintained" in pootle, this can be activated by a language coordinator or brother (preferrably you choose to talkt to brother- at IRC or email (firstname.lastname@example.com)).
Client program
Get the empty files
When you have got your language added to the Pootle server you just visit http://pootle.lxde.bsnet.se/YOUR LANGUAGE CODE/lxde/review.html and download either one file at a time or a zip file with all the files.
Add a header
Open the file in a regular text editor. Make sure that you add your name and mail address in the boiler plate (first few lines). Example:
# Swedish translation for lxterminal. # Copyright (C) 2009 Free Software Foundation, Inc. # This file is distributed under the same license as the lxterminal package. # Daniel Nylander <email@example.com>, 2009. #
Translate with a program
Choose a Program from the list at the end of the page.
- Translate *.po files with Poedit
- To write: guide for other tools.
Get some feedback
Frequently, these tiny accelerators (_) are overseen when translating files. However, they are nice and convenient for all kind of users (those who are reluctance to mice, those with disabilities etc. as they offer accessibility of menu items, checkboxes and buttons by typing letters only, making access really fast and comfortable) and hence you want to insure that they are all correctly translated:
msgcheck -o /dev/null --check-accelerator=_ lang.po
This will tell you where you broke your translation or forgot to translate a string.
msgcheck is only available if you have intltool installed. This is not requiered.
Test your translation
Now, you have translated everything, all accelerators are included as well in a convenient style, i.e. no duplicate accelerators on dialogs and in menus, and want to test your translation. This step need intltool to work.
msgfmt -o lang.gmo lang.po
Which is going to produce the compiled translation file that only needs to be copied over the existing translation, e.g. in /usr/local/share/locale/pt_BR/LC_MESSAGES/lxpanel.mo for the component LXPanel and Brazilian Portuguese.
Upload translation
You need certain privileges in Pootle to be able to add the file there. Go to the overview page for your language http://pootle.lxde.bsnet.se/YOU LANGUAGE CODE/lxde/ and scroll to the bottom. Make sure that the file you upload have the same name as the one you want to replace. Find it via the brose button and then hit upload, select either merge or overwrite in the form above the button. That's all needed.
Translating LXLauncher tabs
Get the code
svn co https://lxde.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/lxde/trunk/ ./lxde
Note revision number!
Realize the patch
mkdir lxde/lxlauncher/data_`whoami` cp lxde/lxlauncher/data/* lxde/lxlauncher/data_`whoami` cd lxde/lxlauncher/data_`whoami` ls lxde*
Edit all files; after:
cd - diff lxde/lxlauncher/data/ lxde/lxlauncher/data_`whoami`/ -uN > ~/path/that/you/prefer/patch_lxlauncher
Upload the patch
- Summary: something like "Italian translation for menu items"
- Description: something like
Translation of LXLauncher tabs in Italian. Obtained with diff -uN
- File: attach your file (patch_lxlauncher)
- Description: something like "File to patch using SVN revision XXXX"
Programs to use for translation
Recommended PO file editors are (in no particular order):
- XEmacs (with po-mode): runs on Unices with X
- GNU Emacs (with po-mode): runs on Unices and Windows
- Lokalize: The replacement of Kbabel for KDE4.
- poEdit: Linux, MacOSX and Windows.
- OmegaT, another translation tool for PO files. It is written in Java so it is available for multiple platforms (including Linux, Mac and Windows). It can be downloaded here.
- For Mac OS X there is AquaEmacs and a port of GNU Emacs available using carbon for OS X. Also see the Emacs wiki for more usage help and tips. po-mode is not included, but is easy to add. Get it from the GNU gettext distribution.
- GNU Gettext (Linux/Unix) used for the GNU Translation Project. Gettext also provides msgmerge that makes merging translations easy.
- Vim (Linux/Unix and Windows versions available) with PO ftplugin for easier editing of GNU gettext PO files.
- gted is an eclipse plugin that turns eclipse into a gettext editor. Eclipse is written in Java, so this editor is platform independent.
- POEditor: online localization platform
Be sure to get a recent version for all editors, multiple plural forms are a recent addition to the gettext standard.

|Accepted Version
View at publisher
The mammalian brain is extremely sensitive to alterations in cellular homeostasis as a result of environmental or physiological insults. In particular, hypoxic/ischemic challenges (i.e. reduced oxygen and/or glucose delivery) cause severe and detrimental alterations in brain function and can trigger neuronal cell death within minutes. Unfortunately, as we age, oxygen delivery to cells and tissues is impaired, thereby increasing the susceptibility of neurons to damage. Thus, hypoxic (neuronal) adaptation is significantly compromised during aging. Many neurological diseases, such as stroke, Alzheimer's disease (AD), Parkinson's disease and diabetes, are characterized by hypoxia, a state that is believed to only exacerbate disease progression. However, the contribution of hypoxia and hypoxia-mediated pathways to neurodegeneration remains unclear. This review discusses current evidence on the contribution of oxygen deprivation to AD, with an emphasis on hypoxia inducible transcription factor-1 (HIF-1)-mediated pathways and the association of AD with the cytoskeleton regulator cyclin-dependent kinase 5. (Part of a multi-author review.).

What They Say About Tanya Chaplin
Related Links
Oregon State's Tanya Chaplin established a new Oregon State record with her 318th victory as the head gymnastics coach. Several former gymnasts and UCLA head coach Valorie Kondos Field took time give their thoughts on Coach Chaplin's accomplishments.
ANNIE CAMPBELL (2002-02, 04) – "I think that Tanya's greatness, is a result of her dedication, quiet confidence, drive, and focus to be her best in every way. She gives everything she can without expecting anything in return. She cares deeply about her athletes as people and she leads through example. She is there day in and day out with you, through the good times and the difficult. Even in times of her own personal difficulties. I am extremely grateful to her for everything she has done for me. She always believed in, supported and went the extra mile to help me."
LAURA-ANN CHONG (2007-10) – "Tanya's greatness cannot be described in words, but in the way her gymnasts present themselves. You can see that Tanya is able to give the attention each gymnast needs to achieve their own greatness, while still keeping the team in mind. Even though it's been 3 seasons now where I haven't been one of her gymnasts competing out on the floor, we still keep in touch and I know that Tanya is always there to help me out when needed. Tanya truly cares for her gymnasts in all fields of life and I think that is why she's been so successful, so great at Oregon State."
ELIZABETH JILLSON (SULLIVAN) (2000-03) – "I am so excited and proud of were Tanya has taken this program. She is an amazing woman and she inspired me to be a strong leader and to set goals. The best attribute about Tanya is that she is an amazing coach and she helps her athletes grow. She will educate you on preparing for the next chapter in life. She helps you get the confidence to pursue your next dream."
"My favorite thing about Tanya is I admire her professionalism and her heart. For me she was a very positive role model in her style of leadership and being a women in power. I admire how she would try to connect with all of us. Her greatness is truly being able to motivate 15 strong young women to be united and to help us reach our goal."
"Another amazing thing about Tanya I know she is still my cheerleader and a mentor. I have called her over the years to check in and she always has an amazing perspective. "
JEN KESLER (2008-11) – "Tanya is one of the most giving individuals I have ever met where she puts her athletes first. She empowers her athletes setting them up to be the most successful individuals they can be in the gym, the classroom and the future. She really focuses on developing the athlete to be a well-rounded person and brings out the best in each individual. The respect she has for her athletes and staff creates an environment of hard work and loyalty for us to give back to her and the program."
VALORIE KONDOS FIELD, head coach UCLA – "Tanya was a tremendously successful athlete before she even came to UCLA, and she achieved even greater success not just as an athlete, but as a teammate and a team leader. So it is not a surprise that she has had the remarkable success she has had as the head coach at such a prominent program. I could not be more happy for or more proud of her."
YUKI LAMB (IGARASHI) (2005-08)– "Tanya doesn't back down from anyone or anything that poses a challenge, and that relentless spirit is a huge part of why the program has been so successful under her leadership. She brings out the best of every athlete in the gym, in the classroom, and in those very formative years of growing into a young woman in college. Behind each of her record-setting wins are many athletes whom she also coached to excel in the classroom and to serve and respect the community. Under her direction, I learned to set higher expectations for myself in all areas of my life, because she taught me that I could have a greater impact and overcome more than I ever thought I could."
CHRISSY LAMUN (2003-06) – "There are so many things that could be said of Tanya's greatness. Ultimately it comes down to her passion for helping develop young women into great women. Her success certainly stems from her vast knowledge of the sport and her ability to coach well beyond the gym floor. She makes you want to become better on a daily basis in the gym and in life. I will forever be grateful for the opportunity she gave me to become an Oregon State Gymnast, a PAC-10 champion, an All-American and most of all the best person that I could become and continue to strive to be. To this day she is one of the most influential people I have encountered."
JAMI LANZ (BRESSLER) (2006-09) – "Tanya is not only a great coach but also a great mentor and role model, someone you respect and look up to. She knows how to bring out the best in each of her student-athletes by understanding each individual and their capabilities, whether it be in the gym, classroom, or living your life as a strong confident young woman. Tanya has done so many great things with this team and they truly deserve to go all the way, I know they have sure made her proud!"
LESLIE MAK (2009-12) – "Tanya is the best coach and leader I've worked with. I felt an instant connection with her ever since she recruited me out of Toronto when I was 16."
"I naively thought college gymnastics was going to be the watered down version of the elite gymnastics I was doing in high school...wrong! Tanya challenged me, believed in me, inspired me, and taught me how to communicate and lead. She made me into the gymnast I became, and has shaped me into the strong, confident woman I am today."
"Beyond being an exceptional former gymnast and current gymnastics coach, Tanya is also a second mom, a leader, a mentor, and an excellent role model. I respect and appreciate all that she has done for myself and the program, and congratulate her on this well-deserved achievement!"
TANYA RICIOLI-HEBRON (2000, 02-04) – "Tanya Chaplin holds the bar high. She demands that we are not only excellent in the gym, but in the classroom and the community as well. Underneath all of this, she is not only preparing us for competition, but for real life and its challenges. She continually molds us, developing skills that we will take and apply into our lives after gymnastics. In many ways Tanya Chaplin has helped me to make the journey from a girl into a woman. I will forever be grateful for all she has taught me and the amazing experience she allowed me to have at OSU. My years on the team were truly some of the best. I am so proud to forever be a part of this phenomenal team that Tanya has created."
"Team. That is the focus of Tanya Chaplin. She always reminded us, 'when each individual does their part, then the team will succeed.' Tanya taught us how to be a team and work toward a common goal. She challenged us in ways that forced us to work together and depend on each other. She taught us to confront one another and hold each other accountable. We learned to encourage and push each other beyond our limits. That is the amazing thing about the team under Tanya; it has never been about the one individual, but has always been about the one team. Won by One."
MANDI RODRIGUEZ (2007-10) – "Tanya's success and record of career wins comes as no surprise to anyone involved with the Oregon State Gymnastics program. What Tanya has built and sustained in her time at Oregon State is nearly unmatched anywhere else in the country and will be her legacy for years to come. Integrity, passion, and the importance of teamwork and camaraderie are what Tanya strives to instill in her athletes, not only as gymnasts, but as people and in life. Tanya and Michael are some of the most caring and nurturing coaches that exist in collegiate sports today, and with that comes consistent success to their program and gymnasts who leave the program with a renewed love for their sport. It has been my personal privilege to compete for Oregon State Gymnastics during the Tanya Chaplin era, as well as receive her unyielding guidance and encouragement as her volunteer assistant coach."
TASHA SMITH (2006-09) – "She brings out the best in her athletes all around and it shows with her achievements. I'm proud to say I was one of her athletes and had the opportunity to experience her greatness!"
OLIVIA VIVIAN (2009-12) – "Tanya is one of the most incredible and influential people I've had the pleasure working with. Her dedication to the team, school and family is so admirable and it's displayed out there on the floor at every meet. Tanya's never give up attitude is a key component to her success, not only in the gym but out as well. I will never forget my experience with Tanya here at OSU and I try to take everything she's taught me and apply it to my own life."

Texas Tech Baseball Stadium Ranked 19th in the Nation
Dan Law Field at Rip Griffin Park received a $5 million renovation prior to the 2012 season
June 27, 2013
Photo Gallery | Video Tour
LUBBOCK, Texas - On a tour through 143 college baseball stadiums across the country, Stadium Journey (www.stadiumjourney.com) recently announced its 2013 College Baseball Ballpark Rankings while listing Texas Tech's Dan Law Field at Rip Griffin Park as the 19th best college ballpark in the country.
The home of Red Raider baseball was critiqued by Paul Donaldson who evaluated Dan Law Field at Rip Griffin Park on its food and beverage, atmosphere, neighborhood, fans, access, return on investment and extras that the ballpark offered.
The reviews were extremely positive for the two-year old ballpark that received a $5 million major renovation prior to the 2012 season to make Dan Law Field at Rip Griffin Park (4,368 capacity) one of the finest on-campus facilities in all of college baseball.
Tech's major renovation included 10 luxury suites, press box with radio and television broadcast booths along with a club level that overlooks the playing surface with outdoor seating for 75 individuals.
Additional highlights also included a shading structure that covers the area in the center portion of the grandstands, the addition of 1,154 char-back seats and tensioned back-stop netting that provides an unobstructed view of the field.

IHello Ya'll,
Well i have saved up some money and am looking to upgrade my carry hand gun.
My current is a S&W bodyguard. now this is a small little guy that maybecome a secondary ankle gun down the road
I have gotten out a bit with friends and family and have got quite a bit of experience both with their guns as well as their holsters. I have and will continue to use an IWB holster on the hip. As i have used these various pistols i have developed some preferences
1) No Glocks, dont like the feel and dont like the safety features (Good gun, just not for me
2) I Like metal frames, don't get me wrong, i have and like both my XD, SP2022, and even the Hi-point. just like the feel
3) i would like a 9mm or .40...I feel i have better follow up with these calibers vs. a .45 and want something bigger than a 38
4)Of all the Guns i have tried and worn my preference was the Kimber 1911 ultra (alloy frame) I liked the full size feel, I am a bigger guy and have no issue concealing it, and here is the biggie I LIKE THE LIGHTNESS
SO here is what i'm looking for. A full size (no less than 4.5") metal frame, 9mm or .40 semi auto that has a fairly slim width and weighs no more than 27 oz unloaded. perferably under $550
Thanks in advanced

Little Daylight — Glitter and Gold
Already, 2014 is gearing up to be the best music year ever. I can't stop finding glittery golden nuggets, such as Little Daylight's "Glitter and Gold." I played this track at a party the other week and everyone in the room immediately started to dance. I guarantee you, putting on this track will make you bop around.
I totally lust for this song. But I can't tell which is better -- the original, or the Cosmic Setter Remix. (Both are posted in the SoundCloud link.) This is the first I've heard of Hospital, an indie band from Russia, and there's not a whole lot of info out there about them yet. But based on this single alone, I'd say they're somebody to watch.
The lead singer of this electronic/dance band, Daniel Anderson, sounds a lot like Kele Okereke of Bloc Party. That alone would probably make me like the song, since Bloc Party is one of my top ten favorite bands of all time. But the sparkling percussion of this chillwave track make it all the better.
(So does this free Bandcamp download!)
Let's take a break from the heavily synthed out songs for a few minutes. The Little Ones have a poppy, somewhat folky Lumineers' type of vibe. Their warm, sun-crisped indie pop will put a smile on your face and some pep in your step.
Bombay Bicycle Club has a knack for making uplifting catchy songs, and "Luna" is no different. This brilliant dazzler is off their fourth studio record So Long, See You Tomorrow, which was just released a couple of weeks ago. The euphoric vocal harmonies in this track have got me saying, "So long, see you right now!" I'm headed over to Amazon to purchase the band's album. If you like your music like you like your women, beautiful and fun, you should purchase it too!
