A small frog is absorbed in playing alone in a beautiful pond. The water is crystal clear. Many lotus flowers at its surrounding are blooming. Amidst the stalks, some fish are swimming back and forth. Rushes of water add to the beauty of the pond. The frog is jumping and swimming around. Suddenly the silence is disturbed by noises caused by the coming of a group of frogs in a hurry. As a result, the situation becomes boisterous.
The little frog considering to have been disturbed even asks:"What is happening? Why do you come with such noises?" "Well, we just now came across with a buffalo. Its body was extremely huge," says one of the frogs while attempting to conflate its body. Even, this little frog starts to be dissolved into the issue.
"Is the buffalo's body as big as this size? The little frog asks while keeping on inflating its body. "Ah…, it's impossible for your little body to equal its body!" observes another frog accompanied by the laughter of the other frogs. The tranquil atmosphere of the pond is even getting boisterous talk as discussing about the buffalo they have encountered on the way back to the pond.
The little frog is even getting more curious. It does not believe if there is a creature named buffalo indeed having a huge body. Its excessive curiosity makes its character look prominent. "Does the buffalo have this size?" The little frog asks once again. Again, the other frogs shake their head. "It's much bigger and stronger," says another.
"Can it equal this size?" says the little frog getting curious. Again, another frog shakes its head marking if the size does not match. It even makes the little frog more and more curious and the more it forces to inflate its body. As getting bigger and bigger, ultimately the little frog bursts. Small frog ends its life tragically and lies down in vain...
This is a folk tale frequently narrated by parents to lullaby their children before going to sleep. Moral messages contained in the story are that people may not be cocky. Do not be arrogant. Do not force the self into something much bigger than the existing ability.
Has this story been abandoned by the policy makers in Bali? When it happens, many problems related to nature and environment will afflict this paradise island. Apparently, it will be quite sagacious if the leaders re-consider the essence of the story about the arrogant little frog.
This Bali is a small island with all the limitations and potentials. If we analogize Bali to a little frog, then the condition can also end up tragically. Damage, miseries and death will be meaningless. Now, the future of Bali will thoroughly lie on the hand of policy makers. Will the legal decisions be capable of enhancing the dignity of Balinese human and the island or even plunging it?

The Alleys of Sandpoint Published December 07, 2007

With a little help from state government officials, the dispute between Sriracha and the city of Irwindale is over. As of May 29th, mayor Mark Breceda dropped a lawsuit against Huy Fong Foods (the company that owns Sriracha) and the city council withdrew complaints it had about Sriracha's pepper processing plant. In addition Huy Fong upgraded the air filtration systems at its Irwindale plant, a move that will hopefully satisfy residents when pepper-grinding season begins in August.
The city of Irwindale – which is located about 25 miles northeast of Los Angeles – filed a lawsuit against Huy Fong Foods in October 2013 after residents complained that fumes from the factory were causing watering eyes, burning throats, and other illnesses. The fumes are caused by one of the first stages of Sriracha production, which is to wash and crush jalapeno peppers before they are mixed with other ingredients and bottled. Particles from the peppers are sucked through a filtration system and out of the factory. But Irwindale claims that the filtration system does not work well enough.
The Irwindale factory was opened in 2011 to triple production of Sriracha in response to a recent spike in demand for the hot sauce. The South Coast Air Quality Management District only started receiving complaints about the factory on October 21, 2013 – none of which could be confirmed. Nonetheless, Iriwndale officials took legal action against Huy Fong after David Tran – owner of Huy Fong Foods – ignored requests to update the Sriracha plant's filtration system. For his part Tran felt that he was being harassed by the city that had invited him to open a plant there.
Gov. Jerry Brown stepped in to alleviate tensions between Huy Fong and Irwindale after Tran publicly welcomed suitors from other states to come and attempt to draw him away. The Governor's Office of Business and Economic Development and the Los Angeles Economic Development Corp. began reaching out early this year and arranged a tour of the Sriracha plant for mayor Breceda and an Irwindale city council representative. The state also confirmed from The South Coast Air Quality Management District that there were no significant odor problems in Irwindale and that the complaints they received in October were limited to a handful of residents. Leslie McBride, deputy director of business investment services in the economic development office, represented the Brown administration during the tour, and although Gov. Brown was kept in the loop, no official incentives came from Sacramento.

Simply Stated: Candy Buffets
I'm working on a Candyland party design right now, so I've been up to my eyeballs in candy lately…which isn't necessarily a bad thing, right? :-)
Anyways, one of the focal points of the party will be a candy buffet, so I thought it would be fun to discuss this increasingly popular party trend over at Simply Stated today. Click here to check it out…and if you have any tips or advice to add, please share!

Wow- the colors of the candy are fabulous! I am on a sugar high just looking at it- you must have a really hard job, just trying to stay away from temptation!!
2amy SAYS:
Sigh. I think we know how I feel about candy themes.
I'm hoping to throw a mojito theme party next. Or, as I call it, "Tuesday."
3Emily SAYS:
I just did a candy buffet for my wedding and it was a hit! My colors were pink and green. Instead of trying to limit myself to candy in pink and green colors, I went all out so that I could have a variety. Sometimes the more vibrant, the better, or at least thats what I think. I did a few months worth of research to find the best prices and found that Metro Candy (.com) was one of the best. They have a huge variety and you can buy in bulk if thats what you're looking for. Ring pops, giant lollipops/unicorn horns, and candy necklaces were a favorite amongst the younger kids, while the adults really seemed to love the rock candy, peanut m&ms, and 39 flavors of jelly beans.
I also had a lot of people comment to me on the random glass jars and how much they loved them. I chose many varieties of apothecary jars, fish bowls, candy dishes, vases, etc. No two jars were alike.
Since this was the favor and people would be taking it home, I made sure to have an appropriate type of container for people to put the candy in. We used colorful chinese takeout boxes and they worked perfectly!
Hope that helps in some way!
4[email protected] SAYS:
Love it!
5Melissa SAYS:
Awesome! Can't wait to see what you come up with Jenn!
6Tiffany SAYS:
One of my cousins had a candy bar at her wedding as a favor. I thought it was a wonderful idea, especially because most wedding favors are cheesy and get thrown away anyway…but candy! we were thrilled! they only had candy that matched their wedding colors and a few that were traditional greek treats.
7Cassie SAYS:
I love the candy buffets, especially in the different sizes and shapes of jars!
8Jen SAYS:
I found out about these on a wedding website and did it at my 21st. Everyone loved it and still talk about it now months on!
if you can do it – try it. its great!!
9Erin @ Blue-Eyed Bride SAYS:
We just did this at our wedding in May and it was such a hit. We did all pink and white and found some really old timey candy that made it feel like an old candy shop, but it was displayed so elegantly with gorgeous little scoops that it looked more beautiful than the flowers!
10Kim O. SAYS:
Love this, Jenn! What a great idea!:-)
11ericka SAYS:
This is ridiculously…may I say…"sweet". I love it..it's so playful, and colorful…like a kid in a candy store!
12Sandra @ Ribbons and Favors SAYS:
I love Candy Buffets. Erin mentioned "it looked more beautiful than the flowers" and with that in mind I have seen tall vases and containers filled with candies used as table centers and it looked fabulous. An empty container for the guests to fill was placed at each guests place setting and they were encouraged to fill them from the table centers. This also did double duty as a conversation starter as people started "sneaking" over to other tables to scoop from their table centers and would get caught. Other guests were very bold about their hunt for the perfect favor filler. Either way you saw people mixing and chatting and laughing. All in all a deliciosly great idea, no matter how you do it.
13Cindia Chapman SAYS:
My future daughter-in-law and I are planning the candy buffet for her September 19, 2009 wedding. We have seen pics online of candy dishes that were fairly large that spell out the word L O V E. Each dish was separate and I believe was made of ceramic. It really set off the mood of the wedding having LOVE candy dishes filled with brown, orange and yellow M&Ms. Any idea where we could find these dishes? You may email me at [email protected], as well. Thanks so much and God Bless! Cindia
14Diana SAYS:
I want to have a candy buffet at my wedding but i'm having trouble finding containers for the candy. HELP! Any ideas thanks
15Ronda SAYS:
try finding glass containers at your local goodwill store. They usually have some at a very low price!

Stretch marks are particularly a problem for pregnant or obese women. Stretch marks occur when your body undergoes a sudden change in its composition of fat, get too thin or fat too fast and your skin doesn't quite catch up to these changes hence the appearance of stretched skin can been seen on select places on your body.
So how do you prevent stretch marks? That depends. It can be a genetic factor and sometimes it can be due to sudden changes in your body that directly affect the presence of stretch marks. Pregnant women and people who are undergoing a heavy workout routine tend to develop stretch marks both because of physiological changes that their bodies are going through, so in a manner of speaking sometimes it cannot be entirely avoided.
The effectivity of treatment is not an issue in terms of well, being effective, rather it's the time it takes for you to finally treat yourself.
Can It Be Prevented?
Stretch marks can be treated so long as you take and make use of the time given to you. It can be prevented from worsening by using topical creams and peels; hence the for even non-invasive surgery shouldn't be needed.
If you develop stretch marks after gaining or losing weight; there are two solutions to that problem. Either you lose or gain weight at a much slower pace by adjusting your diet or properly look over your body and treat stretch marks as soon as you see them appearing. In this case, it's all about considering which one of these choices you want more: to be more fat or skinny, or to have stretch mark-free skin.
Pregnant women on the other hand have a more likely chance of getting stretch marks due to hormonal changes in their bodies and how it ultimately returns back to normal when the pregnancy is done. Stretch mark treatment after a pregnancy is treatable but it might have some health issues, especially if you're thinking of breastfeeding your child.
Also, stretch marks along with other conditions such as cellulite have a genetic factor involved. Sometimes women even after pregnancy don't develop stretch marks or receive far less after their pregnancies.
Creams and Non-Invasive Surgery
Creams and laser-based surgery are the only workable means that guarantee varying levels of success when it comes to stretch marks. The use of topical moisturizers coupled with proper cardiovascular fitness can give you better results.
Wrinkle creams are accessible as they are plenty; they're relatively cheap and you can get them off most pharmacies. One thing to take note though is if you have previous allergies that could respond negatively to retinol in certain concentrations.
There are some promises with laser treatment in the recent years but it can be quite expensive so unless you want to invest in expensive treatments, immediate medication must be made.
Again, avoiding surgery at all costs is why people consider on treating stretch marks as early as possible.

While there probably won't be any new standard evolutions in the upcoming Pokemon games, one can dream, can't they? Here's our list of five Pokemon that deserve new evolutions that can either change their perceptions entirely or give them even more value.
Audino: This guy is a pushover in singles bouts, plain and simple. His one redeeming quality is that he gives players a ton of experience points when he faints. You might even be able to say he serves a propose in doubles and triples matches, but that's a bit of a stretch too. Considering that, what if he had a late level evolution, say 75, that would grant even more XP for beating him, but would be a grotesque and nastier version of the cute cuddly thing that it is now? Add a good 150 to all of his stats and that would be a nice payback for all those years on the sidelines.
Pinsir: This just makes sense. He's a damn strong bug and his mega evolution is cool, but considering all the attention paid to Scyther the past few games and it's fair to say Pinsir deserves a new item-based evolution. Since Scyther uses Metal Coat and gains the Steel tag, why couldn't Pinsir, who's already a bit scary looking, gain a Dark or Ghost tag? Be pretty cool to see (another) Ghost Bug in the game.
Lapras: This dude has been around forever and gets no love. A mere utensil for sea travel, Lapras needs an evolution that shows off all of those years of dependable service. Perhaps a bigger frame and some attention paid to his tiny horn and nonexistent teeth would do the trick.
Dedenne: Adorable isn't the word. The fairy/electric type is an awesome choice for gamers that have patience, but the lack of an evolutionary chain hurts his overall appeal. Much like Pikachu, a fatter, somewhat more aggressive evolution would do wonders for this useful Pokemon.
Hawlucha: Much like Dedenne, Hawlucha is a useful Pokemon that could be so much cooler if he evolved and gained a bit more speed and power. Now a luchadore wrestler, it would be awesome to see it put on some weight and some muscles. Another signature move to go with the Flying Press would be awesome too.
Do you agree? Is there a Pokemon you think deserves to be on this list? Sound off in the comment section below.

When you get ready to book your next cruise vacation, it might be helpful to know just which ships are the cleanest, and presumably, the healthiest ships sailing from US ports. The results of inspections by the Centers for Disease Control are a matter of public record, so your cruise agent should help you make a sound decision.
Here are the value- and mid-priced ships that earned a perfect score in 2013:
Carnival leads the pack with 5 perfect scores on the Carnival Paradise, Carnival Liberty, Carnival Freedom Carnival Victory and Carnival Sensation. What may surprise you is these are not Carnival's latest ships! I can personally attest to the condition of the Carnival Liberty--it was impeccably maintained and spotless wherever you look!
Next in line is Holland America with 4 perfect scores--the Eurodam, Volendam, Zaandam and Nieuw Amsterdam.
Tied with Holland America is Royal Caribbean with perfect scores for the Adventure of the Seas, Navigator of the Seas, Rhapsody of the Seas and the Oasis of the Seas.
Celebrity earned perfect scores for the Celebrity Reflection, Celebrity Eclipse and Celebrity Solstice.
NCL tied Celebrity with perfect scores for the NCL Epic (we were just on her and she shined!!), the Norwegian Gem and the worthy old Norwegian Sky.
Princess reports perfect scores for the new Royal Princess, as well as the Star Princess.
And Disney reports a perfect score for the Disney Dream.
Is your favorite ship missing from the list? I wouldn't worry too much, but there is something very reassuring about sailing (and dining) on a ship that the CDC has passed with flying colors. The inspections are challenging!
Want to sail on a shiny clean ship? Pat Crane and his 7 Seas Cruises keeps abreast of all the scores and will help you sail on a spotless ship--and save big money on your voyage. Call him toll-free at 1-866-424-1090 or write firstname.lastname@example.com.
Bon Voyage!

Selena Gomez Replacing Kristen Stewart as Desired Snow White?
Selena Gomez is now starring in Snow White and the Huntsman?
Just two weeks ago, Gossip Cop was told by insiders involved in the production that Gomez was not being considered for the role, and that Kristen Stewart had been offered the part.
Now IMDb lists Gomez as the lead in the highly anticipated film.
So, did Stewart drop out and Gomez step in?
A production source assures Gossip Cop that Gomez has been erroneously added to the cast on the user-generated site, and that Stewart is still "in negotiations" for Snow White.
As we previously reported, it's simply a matter of whether the filmmakers and Stewart can sign off on an agreement.
Who would you like to see as Snow White – Kristen Stewart or Selena Gomez?

College Hockey:Johnson nets game-winner as Gustavus Adolphus edges Wis.-River Falls
ST. PETER, Minn. — In a tight contest between two teams that have faced each other a lot, Gustavus Adolphus edged Wisconsin-River Falls, 2-1, in the quarterfinals of the NCAA tournament.
Gustavus got the first goal at 5:15 of the first period on a shot by from Melissa Doyle. However, River Falls got the equalizer late in the first when Judy Daleiden deflected it in at 17:41.
Leah Johnson got what proved to be the game-winner at 11:01 of the second with her fourth goal of the season
Both goaltenders were strong, as Gustavus' Lindsey Hibbard stopped 21 shots and Gillian McDonald made 22 saves.
Gustavus will next face Elmira in the NCAA semifinals on March 15 in Superior, Wis.

College Hockey:Irish Nail Down First-Ever CCHA Regular-Season Title
Thang, Brown Star For Notre Dame
FAIRBANKS, Alaska — On Friday at the Carlson Center, Notre Dame Friday night iced its first-ever CCHA regular-season title, as freshman Ryan Thang scored the only goal of the game and David Brown kicked out all 28 shots he faced to give Notre Dame the 1-0 road win.
That, coupled with a 3-2 Michigan loss at Lake Superior State, eliminated the Wolverines to give the Irish their first conference title in the 39-year history of the program.
"Obviously this is huge for the program, since it's the first time that Notre Dame has won a championship," said head coach Jeff Jackson. "It's been a tough month for us. At times it's stressed us all out, including me and because of it we've played with stress and for the next three games we won't have that."
The win ran the Irish's unbeaten streak to eight games (6-0-2) and improved them to 25-5-3 overall and 19-3-3 in CCHA play with three games remaining. Alaska falls to 9-16-6 on the year and 7-13-5 in conference play. Since sweeping Alaska at Notre Dame the weekend of Dec. 2-3, the Irish are 14-2-2 with just one loss coming in CCHA action.
Brown, Notre Dame's Hobey Baker candidate, set the tone early for the Irish as he stopped Braden Walls on a two-on-one just 37 seconds into the game.
"It was a nice play by Alaska . They had an odd-man rush and I saw him go wide," said Brown, who tied the Irish single-season win mark for wins with his 24th victory of the season. "I didn't know if they could get the pass across. They did and he (Walls) had a step on the defenseman. I saw him pull it to his backhand and I just tried to cut down the angle and followed the puck. I slid across and was fortunate enough to make the save."
The two teams would trade nine shots and three power-play chances in the stanza with neither team scoring.
Brown kept the Irish alive in the second period as they were outshot 15-6 in the stanza, but the score remained tied at zero.
"That's the way David has played all season long," said Jackson. There have been nights like this all season where he has made the difference. That's the sign of a great goaltender. The way he played tonight was not a surprise to me. It was that type of game at both ends of the ice. Goaltending was a huge factor for both teams.
Thang would step up to take his role as the hero for the Irish at 4:47 of the final period. With Alaska defenseman Tyler Eckford carrying the puck through his zone, the freshman from Edina , Minn. , swooped in and stripped the Nanook defenseman in the left wing circle. He broke in on goaltender Wylie Rogers, faked him to the ice and slid the puck through his pads for his 17th of the season.
"I saw his eyes, he kind of looked over to his wing," said Thang, who leads the Irish in goals. "In our forecheck, we want our sticks in the lane and force him to the middle. It's something that we worked on all week in practice.
"I came in and faked a shot to freeze him a little bit. I went to the right and shot it five hole and when he moved across his pads opened and it slid in."
The Irish defense played its best in the third, limiting Alaska to just four shots in the period. When defenseman Nathan Fornataro was given a major for hitting from behind with four minutes left, the Irish had the power play for the final four minutes.
Alaska pulled Rogers from goal with 1:39 left but could not score as the Irish held the Nanooks at bay as time wound down.
Notre Dame was outshot by a 28-24 margin with Brown getting his fourth shutout of the season and 10th of his career with 28 saves. Rogers finished the night with 23 stops in the Nanook nets.
"It was a tough game tonight. It had a playoff intensity with both teams battling to the end," said Jackson . "That's the only thing I know about Alaska. Every time we play them, it's a difficult challenge. They compete. They battle. They are a hard team to compete against."
"Winning a title is a huge, huge accomplishment and I'm fortunate and happy to be part of it with a great group of guys," said Brown. "I feel honored to have participated in something so great and it will hang from the rafters for the Irish program for years to come."
Scoring the winning goal was special for Thang. "It's a thrill to do it," said the Irish left wing. "But it's my linemates; David Brown and the rest of the team. Especially the seniors, they've been through it all. It's awesome that we finally have something to show for all the hard work we've put in this year. It's a special time in the program's history."

Full text not available from this repository.
View at publisher
NF-kappaB-inducing kinase (NIK) is responsible for activation of the non-canonical p100 processing pathway of NF-kappaB activation. This kinase has been shown to be critical for activation of this pathway after signaling through several TNF family members including CD40. The functional importance of this pathway in CD40 and TLR-induced dendritic cell (DC) differentiation was studied in vivo in the alymphoplasia (Aly) mouse. The Aly mouse expresses a mutant NIK molecule that prohibits the induction of the non-canonical pathway. We show that while MHC class II presentation and in vivo migration of Aly DCs is intact, these cells are unable to cross-prime CD8+ T cells to exogenous Ag. Gene expression array analysis of DCs matured in vivo indicates multiple defects in Ag processing pathways after maturation and provide a global view of the genes that are regulated by the NF-kappaB2 pathway in DCs. These experiments indicate a possible role for NIK in mediating cross-priming of soluble Ag. In addition, our findings explain the profound immune unresponsiveness of the Aly mouse.

When Scott McPherson's daughter was heading off to college, he wanted to make sure that she'd have a personal protection device with her at all times. Given that most young people are never without their smartphone – and they always have it within easy reach – he did the obvious, and created an iPhone 4/4S case with a built-in pepper spray canister. It's now available for purchase, in the form of the Spraytect case.Read More

"Saturday, bloody Saturday"
Don't expect hugs and kisses from champ Nate Campbell this Valentine's Day
Story & photo by Scott Foster
February 14th is usually a date reserved for romantics, but for newlywed Nate Campbell (32-5-2, KOs), this Valentines Day arrives laced with pain.
It is the pain of a long distance runner, patiently laying them down, or the climber who scales the mountaintop only to be confronted by a larger, more ominous cliff dead ahead. Luckily, the lightweight champion will be sharing this Valentines Day with his mandatory challenger, and while Campbell is expected to begin the night by touching gloves with Ali Funeka (30-1, 24 KOs), most do not expect hugs & kisses to follow.
"What I'm going to bring to that table is pain, and he ain't gonna like none of it," Campbell promised, smiling. "Funeka says he doesn't need special sparring for me because I'm an open book. Well, I don't know what book he's been reading -- he's been running his mouth and I like it. I'm gonna hit him in that mouth, and then I'm gonna show the world how to walk through somebody's business before wiping my feet on their rug."
Soiled rugs aside, the Funeka bout stands as a milestone for Campbell and his team. Not only does it signify his long-awaited 1st title defense, it also offers a chance to reclaim some of the glory garnered after ripping the lightweight titles from the grasp of Juan "Baby Bull" Diaz.
"My 1st defense really means everything to me. I want to show the world that the first time wasn't a fluke. It wasn't just Juan Diaz having an off night, it was me being the great fighter that I am."
Don King has dubbed this card "The Valentines Day Massacre," an homage to one of Campbell's most revered heroes, "Sugar" Ray Robinson. Nate has adopted several of the tools Robinson wielded nearly half a century ago, but Ray's dogged determination left the most indelible mark on Campbell, the mentality to forgo safety in search of the definitive, declarative knockout.
"I stole a lot of my style from "Sugar" Ray Robinson," Campbell admitted. "He was offense at it's finest. You can't find a guy who was more offensively balanced than him. Defense sometimes was put in his back pocket, but offensively, Robinson was a beast."
A beast, to be sure, and Robinson's overall technique not only merits distinction, it endures, untouched. Renowned for his flash & guile, Robinson was quick to point out that every slashing left hook began with solid footwork, and every late round knockout was the result of a devastating body attack. Campbell incorporated the rock & roll defense, and the footwork to set up the left hook, but Nate's calling card is his commitment to the body, a devotion that would prompt even Ray Robinson to sit up & smile.
"Anybody can hit a guy in the head and knock him out, but a good fighter has to be softened up. A good body attack is the key to that. For me, the greatest thing I was ever taught was the left hook to the liver; it's a lost art, they just don't teach it anymore. You gotta have balls to stand & fight a guy -- anybody can stay outside & run -- but you gotta have balls to stand in the pocket and fight a guy. As the fight with Funeka progresses, he's is gonna have to fight me. Once I touch him with a body shot, I'm gonna take his legs."
Mike McCallum, arguably one of the top 5 body-punchers in our recent past, was so taken by Campbell's dedication to the "lost science" that he contacted the impressionable young fighter, quietly bestowing his title with a keen eye on Campbell's future.
"Mike McCallum called me years back and said, 'You are the next coming of the body snatcher.' From that day forward, I wasn't ever gonna change. That carried more weight than anybody ever understood. The thought that this man who I revered, who I held in such regard, that he was willing to call me that -- man, it made me happy beyond the world. My body attack is the most scintillating in boxing. When I hit a guy with a body shot, everybody in the arena pays attention."
Winning a world title effects a boxer in many differing ways, and as the "silk pajamas" axiom leaps to the forefront of those discussions, the educated guess is that Campbell's reign, at least in terms of intensity, should resemble Bernard Hopkins more so than David Reid. At age 36, Campbell may not match Hopkins' overall longevity, but his willingness to punish himself, toiling through the roughest hours in dank, sweltering gyms, remains an intangible exclusive to the elite.
"I still think I'm the meanest cat in the gym," Campbell deadpanned. "Every time I step into the ring, with a sparring partner or my best friend, I mean to prove it. I haven't made millions of dollars, I still have to get up in the morning & run, everything I've always done before I won the title is still how I do it today. I give myself the very best chance to win. Once I give all the hard labor in the gym, everything else takes care of itself."
As was the case with many of the sports more storied champions, Campbell's ascent to the mountaintop began well beneath the bottom rung. Entering the game as an afterthought during his mid-20's, Campbell's struggles were well documented, and the pitfalls he endured not only bolstered his detractors, but served as inspiration, providing a sore spot for Campbell to pick at whenever he felt the urge.
"Someone once said that if you haven't lost a fight by the time you fight for a championship, then you haven't fought anybody. My record shows that I've fought everybody. I fought hard, and I never quit. I know that the thing that made me champion was my mishaps – the things that happened in my career, they galvanized me."
Much of Campbell's success also stems from the people he surrounded himself with. Terry Trekas, founder of One Punch Productions, serves not just as Campbell's longtime manager/promoter, but as a sounding board & friend, a confidant Nate openly refers to as family. Their relationship transcends the sport, and is as valuable & treasured as the title belts adorning Campbell's mantle.
"Nate is family," Trekas explained, "and when you know what someone is capable of, and all it takes is for the pieces to align right, and then it does -- that's very satisfying. For the pieces to finally fall into place -- and for him to be as good as he is -- I guess the most satisfying part is when the rest of the world doesn't think you're nuts anymore."
One Punch intends to stay true to their roots, focusing on a small stable more apt to partake in Sunday afternoon BBQ's than a Monday morning business meeting. Relationships are forged and loyalties ironclad, affording his boxers less worries and more peace of mind in a sport consumed by doubt and distrust.
"I don't have any desire to go out and sign 50 fighters and not be able to adequately represent each of them," Trekas said. "I'll never be a Golden Boy, or DKP or Top Rank simply because I'm not interested in that type of party. Nothing against them, it's just that I'm a little more of an individual; I have to have a certain deal with a guy. If I don't, I can't make the commitment to him. You have to have both -- you have to have your corporate promoters, and your mom & pop. Basically, I'm a mom & pop."
Inside the ring, Campbell has benefited from several trainers in his past, but the last piece of the puzzle didn't fall into place until late 2003, when former 154/160lb champion John David Jackson lent a hand in preparation for the Daniel Attah bout. Jackson, trained under the tutelage of Georgie Benton, an Eddie Futch disciple himself, imparts many old-school lessons in the gym, emphasizing bodywork & defense. In the intervening years, John David's influence grew exponentially, quickly becoming a fixture not only in Campbell's corner, but around the dinner table as well.
"John is my family," Campbell explained. "His wife & kids are my family. Our families are close, and when we are not in the gym, we miss each other because we're friends. John David is one of my best sparring partners, and is the most respected guy in the gym. He is a teacher. I always had an old-school style, but when I got with somebody who knows the old-school game -- me & John could figure out how to beat King-Kong."
Before tackling any monoliths in the sport, Campbell must first dispatch his IBF mandatory contender. At 6'1'' Funeka presents an imposing figure, and his background & style suggest that underestimating the South African could likely result in an upset. Even with his future on his mind, Campbell insists Funeka remains his sole focus, fully aware that a stumble out of this gate might incur catastrophic consequences down the road.
"If I lose this fight, they won't deal with me," Campbell reasoned. "They will freeze me out, but because I know that, I train that much harder. They can't control me, they don't know what I'm going to say from one moment to the next, and because of that, they don't like me. I believe that fighters should fight the best fighters out there. I won't take BS fights just to make the 'powers that be' happy. I want to fight the very best champions."
If successful against Funeka, those marquee champions appear aligned for Campbell, with several beginning to add his name to their lucrative, albeit limited dance cards. The obvious match would be a unification bout with the winner of the Juan Manuel Marquez/Juan Diaz WBO title fight. Campbell appears less likely to achieve the return match with Diaz, given their camps history, but the talk of Marquez bears more weight, animating the lightweight champion in an openly visceral way.
"If Diaz had the ring belt, everybody knows they can't call him the linear champ, I beat him up. The fight with Marquez would mean that I get to shut everybody up, right away. I could close the book. Stop with the linear stuff, I could take all of the foolishness out of the game, at least at lightweight. If I sign Marquez, I'll probably have to draw 1st blood. It's not that I want to get into his head; I want in his ass."
Manny Paquiao's name has also been bandied about, and as much as that bout would draw financially for Campbell, his motives appear rooted in styles rather than dollars & cents. Beyond being the hardest workers in their respective gyms, Bernard Hopkins & Campbell share another common thread, and that is their ability to nullify the southpaw stance. Campbell thrives against that style, dispatching all southpaws on his ledger, save the lone loss to one of the most skilled, heavy-handed lefties in the past decade, Joel Casamayor. To be fair, Manny brings much more to the table than simply a southpaw stance -- namely speed, power & unbridled determination -- but Campbell is convinced that styles will dictate the outcome of that fight.
"I would love to break Pacquiao into a thousand little pieces -- I think I may make the whole Philippine nation hate me. They can scream 'Pacman' all they want; Pacquiao doesn't want to see me. I don't feel like Pacquiao can deal with what I'll bring. My body punching wouldn't bust him up, it would make him throw up. But Marquez will sign & he will fight, and I respect him for that."
A win over Funeka, and the subsequent paydays that victory should usher in, seem poised to provide a fitting postscript to the roller-coaster ride Campbell has enjoyed this past decade. Nate Campbell talks like a man satisfied after a great meal, and as the dessert tray makes its rounds, he appears eager to bypass the low-hanging fruit. There are larger things in store for the lightweight champion, and for once, they all appear within his reach.
"My legacy is the most important thing," Campbell revealed. "I want to make the Boxing Hall of Fame. That's what I want. But if people smile when they say my name, then I'm OK. I want some kid in a gym to say, 'I watched Nate Campbell fight one time, did you see the body punches he threw, did you see the combinations? Did you see his power?' If some kid somewhere calls me a beast, and decides he wants to fight like me, then I'll be OK."

Last week, Army Specialist Ivan Lopez approached a group of his fellow soldiers and started shooting. A few minutes later, three soldiers and Ivan were dead, 16 wounded. Lopez, 34, was a veteran of the Iraqi War.
Lopez had been through some trauma in Iraq (about:reader?url=http%3A%2F%2Fm.nydailynews.com%2F1.1747125&tabId=). He had wrote about surviving an attack in Fallujah in which the vehicle in front of his had suffered the brunt of an explosion.
Admiral Mike Mullens, the former Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, appeared on "Meet the Press" on Sunday, April 6, 2014, and speculated how Lopez, like many of his.veteran colleages, may have been suffering from Post Traumatic Stress Syndrome. This condition is not being addressed enough, he said, and this us a tragic result.
Lopez, initially from Puerto Rico, had been in the army since 2008. He was married and had a young son (http://m.huffpost.com/us/entry/508431). He had seen a.psychologist and was given Ambien to help him sleep. Otherwise, no one saw it coming.
This incident, and others like it, continues to put Post Traumatic Stress Syndrome in focus, as well as the need for increasing Mental Health resources for both Armed Forces veterans and the general population as well. Of course, Spec. Lopez had seen a psychologist and one can't help wonder if that psychologist may have not been as diligent as he or she should have been.
Or was it a matter of limited resources preventing any type of in-depth analysis? Or was it taken for granted that here was someone who had seen combat, of coursehe was shook up, and here's something to help you sleep. In short, were warning signs overlooked?
Nothing seemed to foretell his deadly action (about:reader?url=http%3A%2F%2Fm.nydailynews.com%2F1.1744315&tabId=0). He had been described as laid back, a.family man, not too anxious. Many are speculating as to the extent is timetime in Iraq affected him and whether an argument a few days prior set him off.
The National Institute of Health talks about Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, or PTSD (http://www.nimh.nih.gov/health/topics/post-traumatic-stress-disorder-pts...). When faced with danger, our body's natural response is flight or flight, an ancient instinct which compels us to try to overcome the challenge, or.flee if dewmed too dangerous. Once the sitation is resolved, our heightened functions calm down and return to normal.
People who have PTSD have experienced so much trauma, that it is difficult for em to calm down. Symptoms include hyperarousal, difficulty relaxing, and difficulty sleeping. Diagnosis involves identifying these symptoms as wel as the continuation of the person behaving as if they were still in the situation.
Spec. Lopez didn't seem to manifest these symptoms. That he had emotional issues is clear. What exactly those problems were are unclear.
In any case, it is important that more attention is paid to mental health issues. This is anwidespread issue that encompasses all levels of society.

COLUMBUS, Ohio – When the Colorado Buffaloes learn to not let football games begin without them, success might not be far behind. And under lessons-still-to-be-learned, better put checks beside special teams play and field position.
As the Buffs had done on three previous weekends – only one of them not turning out badly – they fell behind early. And on this Saturday in the sunny and mild Heartland, determined Ohio State wouldn't let them up.
Rebounding from a 24-6 loss at Miami (Fla.) that dropped them out of the Top 25 for the first time in seven years, the Buckeyes routed the Buffs 37-17 at Ohio Stadium before 105,096. The victory improved Ohio State's home record to 55-5 since 2002; the loss was CU's 20th straight away from Boulder since 2007.
CU, which begins Pac-12 Conference play next Saturday at home against Washington State, fell to 1-3 while Ohio State waltzed out of "The Horseshoe" at 3-1.
For only the third time in modern history, the Buckeyes started a true freshman quarterback – Braxton Miller. The others were Art Schlichter in 1978 and Terrelle Pryor in 2008. Schlichter debuted with five interceptions in a 19-0 loss to Penn State, while Pryor threw four touchdown passes and just one interception in a 28-10 victory against Troy.
Miller was more successful, mostly using his legs to baffle the Buffs. In the first half, when the Buckeyes were opening a 17-0 lead, Miller ran 14 times for 83 yards and finished with that total after only three second-half carries. He went 5-of-13 passing for 83 yards and two touchdowns.
CU quarterback Tyler Hansen completed 22 of his 39 passing attempts for 238 yards and a pair of touchdowns, giving him nine TD passes for the season. The Buffs rushed for just 76 yards, the Buckeyes for 226.
Ohio State has allowed just one 100-yard rusher in its past 25 home games, and CU didn't have a back that came close. However, tailback Rodney "Speedy" Stewart, one of three Ohioans on the CU roster, gained 55 yards – enough to push him over 3,000 for his career and past Bobby Purify into third place on the school's career rushing list. Stewart trails Eric Bieniemy and Rashaan Salaam.
CU had committed just one turnover in its first three games, but the Buffs lost a pair of first-half fumbles Saturday and the Buckeyes got points from both. CU also was flagged eight times, now totaling 37 in four games.
The Buffs had targeted a fast start but they were well off that mark. Not close, in fact. They trailed 10-0 after one quarter, and here's how they came by that zero: No first downs, one yard rushing, 18 yards in total offense.
It was another non-start eventually compounded by a series of special teams nightmares that contributed to Ohio State opening seven of 12 drives in CU territory and three others at its own 40, 40 and 43. The Buckeyes' average starting field position was the Buffs' 47-yard line.
After forcing the Buckeyes to punt on the game's opening series, the Buffs also went three-and-out. Whether called or done impromptu, CU's Darragh O'Neill attempted a left-footed rugby style punt that traveled only 20 yards.
But in its herky-jerky bouncing up field, it appeared to hit an Ohio State player. O'Neill thought it did, but teammate Makiri Pugh – the nearest Buffs player to the ball – didn't make a move for it.
The Buckeyes took possession at the Buffs' 43-yard line and quickly used seven plays to take a 7-0 lead. Tailback Jordan Hall, suspended for the first two games, scored on a 1-yard run and Drew Basil's extra point pushed the Buckeyes in front 7-0. Hall finished with 84 yards rushing.
On CU's next series, Hansen and Stewart botched a handoff and Ohio State defensive tackle Adam Bellamy pounced on it at the Buffs' 22. The Buffs' defense would be congratulated for letting it only come to this, but six plays later Basil's 28-yard field goal gave Ohio State a 10-0 lead that held up through the rest of the first quarter.
Midway through the second quarter, the Buckeyes pulled ahead 17-0 after being given prime field position when Stewart signaled for a fair catch at his 5-yard line and put the Buffs offense in another precarious position.
Three plays later, O'Neill had to punt out of his end zone. Hall returned the punt 12 yards to the CU 46, and from there Miller capped a six-play scoring drive with a 32-yard TD pass to freshman receiver Devin Smith, who got behind Buffs corner Ayodeji Olatoye.
With Basil's PAT, the Buckeyes were up 17-0 and the Buffs were gasping.
CU showed its only offensive spark of the first half on the following possession, with Hansen driving the Buffs 83 yards and hitting receiver Toney Clemons – he had lost to Ohio State twice while at Michigan – with an 11-yard scoring pass. It was Clemons' second TD reception in two games.
After Will Oliver's extra point, CU trailed by 10 (17-7) and appeared to possibly be finding itself. Then came Justin Castor's kickoff, which sailed out of bounds and gave Ohio State possession at its own 40. The Buffs defense looked like it had worked out of that jam, forcing the Buckeyes to punt.
But Stewart, signaling for a fair catch, was jostled and bobbled the ball. Ohio State recovered at the CU 10-yard line with 15 seconds left before intermission, and 9 seconds later Basil's 18-yard field goal sent his team to the locker room with a 20-7 halftime lead.
In addition to his 83 rushing yards in the first half, Miller completed two of his six passes for 40 yards – one the 32-yard scoring pass. Hansen's 91 passing yards (10-of-18) was essentially CU's only first-half offense; the Buffs rushed only five times and gained 15 ground yards.
CU started the second half as unsteadily as the first, getting whistled for holding on the kickoff and taking possession at its own 9-yard line. That ultimately led to another O'Neill rugby punt – this one right-footed – that traveled 33 yards and set up the Buckeyes at midfield.
Over the next six plays, Hall – Clemons' cousin – carried five times and moved Ohio State to the CU 17. On Play No. 6, with the Buffs possibly expecting another dose of Hall, Miller and Smith hooked up for their second TD – this one a 17-yarder. Following Basil's PAT, CU was looking at 27-7 deficit with 9:04 left in the third quarter.
Another holding penalty on the ensuing kickoff put the Buffs at their own 10 to open their second second-half series. Still, Hansen and his offense strung together a 60-yard drive, positioning Oliver for his sixth field goal of his freshman season – this one a 47-yarder that brought the Buffs to within 27-10.
So much for momentum . . .
Hall returned CU's kickoff 90 yards to the Buffs' 5-yard line, and on the next play tailback Carlos Hyde scored. After Basil kicked the Buckeyes up 34-10, the visitors had one quarter to either spin a miracle or make the afternoon respectable.
They weren't up for either. Basil booted a 47-yard field goal with 11:42 to play, increasing the Buckeyes' advantage to 37-10. The Buffs scored on a 14-yard Hansen-to-Tyler McCulloch pass with 3:31 remaining, and Oliver's PAT accounted for their final points of the afternoon.

Well-maintained trees do not only bolster the appeal of your house, they also put value to it and support local ecology. Unfortunately, there are particular reasons a home owner would want to clear away a tree from an area. But tree removal should be the last resort. Tree experts can help you recognize if a tree is a valid candidate for extraction.
Taking down a tree is generally a hazardous endeavor. It needs specialized equipment, experience and help from properly trained individuals. When it involves taking out trees in your lawn, you ought to learn about the safety precautions regarding tree removal. Bear in mind you shouldn't ignore the significance of being very careful not only for your own safety but for the safety of the people and property around you as well. Here are just some of the basic safety tips you have to remember whenever you are planning to take down trees in your lawn.
If you have a dead tree in your property, or a tree that is blocking out the front yard or sidewalk, or a hazardous tree, it may be a good idea to have it removed. But before you opt to do this, be sure to look around the vicinity and search the area for dangerous wires, fences and other trees that might make the procedure a lot more difficult and unsafe. See to it that there is a lot of falling space once the tree is taken down. If the tree is deceased, you need to check it to be sure that it doesn't have decomposing sections that could cause it to break unexpectedly.
If the tree is close to any utility lines, you may need to get in touch with your local power company to help you assess the situation. If you do the job without seeking expert help, you may end up ruining the wires that may lead to bigger trouble.
You may also get in touch with the public safety department of your local municipality to learn whether they can have the tree extracted free of charge. It is probable that the city workers will stop by and have the tree removed if it is located on your front walk and not inside your property. City workers are also likely to remove the tree if it is already disrupting the sewer.
Generally, tree removal is too big a task to take on by an inexperienced individual. If you have friends, neighbors or family members with skills and experience in this kind of task, then it is best to ask for help. Working with a team will make the undertaking a lot simpler and safer. Or better yet, you can hire a professional tree service company to free you of the stress and hard work involved in tree removal.
When you wish to have a tree cleared away from your area, consider finding expert help. Go over to the WA Treeworks website at watreeworks.com.au to contract a tree removal service in Perth.

Swype for Android available for download, although unofficially
Officially launched only for Windows Mobile (with Verizon's Samsung Omnia II being the first smartphone to get it), Swype is also available for Android, in a preview version – although, at the moment, it only works with phones that have WVGA displays, like the Motorola Droid / Milestone.
With Swype, users can input text faster and easier, using only one continuous finger (or stylus) motion across the soft keyboard.
To download Swype for Android, head on over to DroidMuff.in. You'll also find instructions for installing and using it there.
There's no word on when the official Swype app for Android will be launched, but it shouldn't be long until this happens.The official app will most probably support all Android phones, as this video preview from MobileCrunch indicates (Swype works here on Verizon's Droid Eris):

Being Patient with Hiring Decision-Makers
Geoff Hibner lost his job in 2007 after working as the CFO of Banta Corp. The entire executive team was let go when the company was sold. Previously, he was an independent consultant as well as a senior vice president and CFO at The Timberland Co. Mr. Hibner earned an M.B.A. from Harvard Business School in 1977. He lives with his wife in Neenah, Wis. and has two adult children.
Throughout my career, I've always tried to practice restraint. I've just had an experience that proves how valuable that can be. This is worth emphasizing again and again to anyone looking for a new position and dealing with people who have the power and ability to decide whether or not to hire you. Whether you think you've been mislead, ignored, or treated less than fairly in your job search process, I believe that it's always best to never burn a bridge.
Many months ago I made a contact that I thought might lead to a CFO position. While that didn't work out, the chief executive officer decided that he liked my background and experience, and wanted to meet with me to explore how I might fit into the organization in some other way. We met several times and had discussions about the company's short-term and longer-term needs and challenges. At the last meeting, we agreed to talk again in a few days to iron out a few last details.
And then — nothing happened. The planned call was canceled. I called the CEO but received no response. I sent him several email messages asking for a status update, since we had previously corresponded once or twice via e-mail, but I received no response. I walked the fine line between being persistent in trying to find out what had happened, and being a pest. I was upset at not being in control and at not being able to gain any responses. I eventually sent a letter in which I acknowledged that something must have happened that caused him to change his mind about me, and asked for feedback that I might be able to use in the future with other companies so I don't make the same mistake twice. I wanted to gain something of value from the process, even if it was just some insight for use in the future. Did I want to write a line or two about how insensitive I felt it was of him to give me no feedback? You bet. But, I didn't.
As it turned out, this CEO of a good-sized company had a few other things on his mind — like running the business and dealing with other personnel issues. It wasn't personal toward me. He just wasn't able to come to a conclusion about what he wanted to do that might include me, so I didn't hear anything.
I learned this when I received a call a week or so ago and was asked to come back in to discuss another idea he had. He apologized for not getting back to me, and explained the details behind the inactivity. So, we picked up where we left off some time ago, and I'm starting a consulting assignment for the company soon. Perhaps this relationship might even lead to a full-time opportunity with the company. We'll see. But, it would never have happened if I'd gotten mad and burned this bridge when I thought that there was no longer any reason to practice restraint.

It's been a minute since my last entry and with that being said, all I can say is "life gets in the way." This is something that is never more evident than when you are a parent. In the several months that have passed, ear infections, a circumcision, potty training and the beginning of private school have all made their way into the forefront of my life. After my son's arrival, we made the decision to allow our license expire which effectively means that we are no longer an adoptive family so I can't even say that I am the best one to write about the process as it stands but I can be the one to tell you about what it's like being the parent of a child that has taken residence in your heart even if they never took up residence in your body. In short, it will probably take you less time to read this than it took for me to write this, but rest assured there will be frequent and regular entries now that my son "go poo-poo on the potty."

I'm from a ways back when every body rode British bikes like Norton and Triumph. Rode an Indian also.
Sadly, my colleague was riding his one evening when a truck pulling a flatbed trailer pulled in front of him. He apparently misjudged and thought that he just needed to clear the truck, not seeing the flatbed as it was night and the side of the trailer wasn't lit. Poor guy tried to lay his bike down and slide under at the last second; and left his brains on the asphalt.
Next day our wives took our toys away.
I'm glad your son sold his bike. They are fun, but not worth the risk.
Please make sure you guys wear your helmets and safety gear when you ride, just as you would wear ear and eye protection at the range!
In February of 2008 I took a spill on a bike and ended up with a broken neck. They were able to perform fusion surgery and fix the neck, but the neurosurgeons who worked on me assured me that had I not worn my helmet, I would not be sitting here typing this today......
Luckily, I suffered no paralysis or pain, but things could have been much, much worse.

Web Generalisation Services are now receiving considerable attention from the research community. In this context, interoperability has been identified as a crucial beneficiary of the Web Service concept. This has inspired the formation of a working group to establish consensus for Web Generalisation Services and to specify further technical requirements. The intent of this working group is to enable a higher degree of interoperability and thereby increase the possibilities for exchanging and sharing generalisation functionality over the Web. OGC's WPS interface specification has been taken as a basis, since it provides a standardized means within the geo-spatial domain to establish processes such as generalisation. This paper reports the current status of the working group and the forthcoming work items.

The autumn gaming season is almost upon us and there are tons of new titles to look forward to, regardless of which console or handheld you may own. Gamers working with a strict budget will face some difficult decisions between established franchises and new IP alike. This season also marks the one year anniversary of the PS4 and Xbox One's respective releases, meaning prospective buyers have new bundles to look forward to. Between the pre-order bonuses and aggressive marketing campaigns, it's no wonder that a few of these games will get lost in the shuffle.
We recently had a chance to speak with Eric Hirshberg, the CEO of Activision, regarding a few of this year's biggest releases. Activision itself is publishing Bungie's highly-anticipated Destiny, as well as Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare from Sledgehammer games. These two games, while handled by the same company, will be competing with each other during this holiday season. We asked Hirshberg his thoughts regarding this possible conflict and the crowded holiday season in general.
I'd always rather have a completely open freeway with no other traffic, but I've yet to find that weekend anywhere in the year when it makes sense (laughs). Obviously, there's a lot of heat around the holiday quarter and we're not the only ones to have observed that. There are only so many weekends around that corner that people have to choose between. This is also driven by when the games are ready, as you've seen a lot of games that were supposed to be in the four quarter pushed out of the year, so that creates problems too. Look, it's a competitive business and the best content and the best marketing is always the best predictor of your success.
Destiny was one of those titles to be delayed until the beginning of this holiday season, though Hirshberg doesn't seem worried about its chances. As he stated, the best content tends to win out, and Bungie has already become a highly respected company due to their Halo franchise. Likewise, the Call of Duty series has managed to release hit after hit with each passing year. The decision to release these games for both the seventh and eighth generation of consoles also allows for the largest possible group of potential buyers, which will help boost their sales. There's also the matter of Destiny's white PS4 bundle, to be released alongside the game on September 9th, and the appearance of award-winning actor Kevin Spacey as Advanced Warfare's main villain when the game comes out on November 4th.

Clyde's of Reston Restaurant Review: As the quintessential neighborhood restaurant-bar-hangout, this Clyde's hums with activity and buzzes with conversation almost around the clock. Want a casual Sunday supper? Drop in for an entrée salad. Stopping by for lunch with friends? How about a bowl of chili and one of Clyde's burgers? A drink or two after work? The bar scene jumps and swirls. And holiday meals throb with the bustle of family and friends gathered together to celebrate. As with all the Clyde's restaurants, the menu has several mainstays---crab cakes, artichoke dip and burgers, to name a few---but also keep an eye out for some twists the chef presents for the day. Maybe it'll be a frittata with chorizo, or to ward off a cold-weather chill, a portion of Guinness beef stew. For warm-weather alfresco eating, nothing around beats Clyde's open air-yet-covered dining terrace adjacent to the ice-skating rink-entertainment pavilion.

In the grand scheme of things, a tiny molecule can mean a lot—especially in Penn Chemistry's High Throughput Experimentation Laboratory. The state-of-the-art laboratory is capable of testing hundreds of reactions a day, as opposed to only a handful previously. It is here that doctoral student Sarah Trice and Hirschmann-Makineni Professor of Chemistry Gary Molander of the Department of Chemistry developed a new type of reagent that allows for easier synthesis of boronic acids, one of the main ingredients needed to perform a Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reaction—the most efficient way to create carbon-carbon bonds in critical biaryl systems.
The project began with a clear goal: to replace bis(pinacolato)diboron (BisPin), the tried and tested synthesizing reagent for many pharmaceutical building blocks, with a more efficient material. Because of BisPin's molecular weight, almost 90 percent of the reagent is wasted each time it is used for a coupling. This amounts to a staggering 10 tons of pinacol discarded per year. Trice and Molander's bis-boronic acid is not only lightweight, but incorporates nearly 50 percent of the needed mass into the final molecule. In addition, the method utilizes one of the rare drinkable solvents—ethanol, as opposed to an ether solvent—and wastes far less palladium catalyst than traditional methods.
"My favorite aspect is that it changes color after it borylates, so you don't need to use an analytical instrument to say, 'Oh, it's done now.'" – Sarah Trice
"It's like Legos. You've got one building block, say your red Lego—that's your boronic acid. And you've got a blue Lego, your aryl halide," says Steven Kennedy, a postdoctoral research associate that later joined Trice and Molander to explore the scope of the project. "The new reagent allows for "one-pot" generation, essentially snapping the two "Legos" together in a single go, all while avoiding the time-consuming practice of isolating the intermediate boronic acid, or the need to purchase an expensive, wasteful, pre-made boronic acid."
Trice and Molander's method quickly found an audience. Their paper was published in the Journal of the American Chemistry Society, one of the preeminent chemistry journals. And though their method had gained popularity in the community, and could ostensibly improve cost and production efficiency markedly for pharmaceutical companies, they decided not to patent the reaction.
"If you patent something, people won't use it. They'll find a way around it, or revert back to the old, archaic method," says Trice. "Dr. Molander wanted to allow access to everyone because he feels that it is more efficient, environmentally-friendly and solves many of the problems associated with using the standard BisPin."
Trice and Kennedy are currently working on further improvements to the reaction. Previously, with the older reagent BisPin, temperatures would need to reach 110 degrees Celsius, a potentially dangerous situation given that ethereal solvents can be explosive. With Trice and Molander's bis-boronic acid, however, temperatures are holding between 50-80 degrees Celsius, a number they think they can improved upon, which would allow for a less volatile production environment.
There is an artistic elegance in the reaction, as well, says Trice. "My favorite aspect is that it changes color after it borylates, so you don't need to use an analytical instrument to say, 'Oh, it's done now.' After that, you just add the second reagent and you're off to do your coupling. My colleague was in the laboratory next to us and she couldn't believe her eyes—it's a terrific perk."

As some of you may be aware the Rega RP1 has a built in RCA cable with is about 1m long. My problem is that i plan to buy an integrated amp which, due to my storage problem, is going to have to be about 2m away from the TT. Is there anyway of extending the this cable with a 3rd party RCA?
Also i plan to run another cable from the "tape out" of the amp to a headphone amp. Anyone recommend any cables that are going to be a match for the stock RP1 cable.
I hope thats clear?

My name is Mary, and I am in the process of remodeling my bathroom. I read in a design magazine that homeowners use their bathtubs only about three times per year on average. Most people prefer to use the shower rather than the tub, and so do my husband and I. So we decided to design our bathroom with an oversized shower, and to include no bathtub at all. I wanted the shower to be the center of attention in the master bath.
We designed the shower to have a comfortable seating area, but we did not want to sit on cold tile bench. We had already planned to install electric floor heating. Then, I found out that WarmlyYours also offers a shower heating system, and it seemed to be exactly what we needed. The WarmlyYours heating mat is very thin and was extremely easy to install so the entire installation went very well. The most difficult part was installing the transformer and floor heating thermostat. Because both WarmlyYours and the local electrical code recommend the installation of a low voltage electric floor heating system in the shower, a transformer was required to turn the 110V electricity into 24V. The radiant heating was an additional expense; however, I am so glad to have warm floors in my bathroom and in the shower. The tile bench is a real bonus! Having a bathroom filled with radiant heating will make for a very cozy and comfortable morning routine.
