This is a strange problem. We are using an Exchange 2007 server to handle the emails to and from the company. There are two main problems which are probably related.
- None of our mails sent to one single customer are ever received.
When we send any type of mail to one particular customer, they never get it. We have confirmed the address and tried to send more to other mail addresses on the same domain and they still don't receive it. No error (email or otherwise) is ever issued. (Domain related? Blacklisted?)
- Sometimes (intermittently) a mail sent to our company (can be any address on our domain) is never received.
I tried this the other day from home and sent a mail to my work address. It was never received. But then a day later i sent another and it was received fine (so the mail address is fine). No error (email or otherwise) is ever issued.
Any ideas where to start looking for causes?

I am trying to give my server a static IP address. This seems to work without any problems, but I can't seem to get an internet connection after this process. I've also changed my DNS server to 188.8.131.52 (google dns right?).
OS: Ubuntu Server 12.04 x86
Environment: Virtualbox

I've fixed the issue myself, it appeared my router settings had changed somehow, it was set to the 10.x.x.x range instead of the 192.x.x.x

About Luz Verde / Green Man Flashing:
Green Man Flashing is a fast-paced political thriller written in a filmic style. It explores themes of personal and political violence, as well as the lengths people will go to in the name of greater political good. All this is played out against the backdrop of a young democracy still dealing with its racist history, but where violence against women is of national crisis proportions. Green Man Flashing takes on the challenge of deep moral and political questions for which there are no easy answers and provides insight into the very real themes that occupy thinking South Africans.
It is six weeks before the country's second elections in 1999. The white personal assistant to a high profile, black government minister with an impeccable anti-apartheid struggle record, alleges that he has raped her. Should the allegation become public, it would seriously damage the governing party in the elections. The party sends a two-member delegation to persuade the alleged victim not to go through with the charges, offering her tempting alternatives...

HOWELL CLUB LAKE, Texas — Ronald Emilio Morello passed away on April 4, 2013, after enjoying his retirement on a private lake in east Texas.
Ron was the first born child to Emilio and Dorothy (Morgando) Morello on March 5, 1943. He attended Hurley public schools in Montreal and Hurley, Wis ., graduating with the class of 1961. While in high school, Ron worked as a pin setter at the Hamilton Club. He was then employed in Milwaukee and Beloit, Wis.
He married LaVerne Hamberg in 1963 and the couple moved back to Iron County in 1965, where they raised their two children, Ralph, of Denver, and Renee, of Grapevine. Both children survive, along with their spouses, Anne Morello and Tim Marron.
Also surviving are: grandchildren, Paul and Steve Marron; a brother, David (Bertha); a sister, Karen Lowe (Bill); a nephew, David J. Morello (Pam); and numerous cousins.
Ron was active in the Hurley Area Little League and was instrumental in starting the Hurley Babe Ruth Baseball program.
After his children went off to college, Ron left Iron County and worked as a teacher at the Fox Lake Correctional Institution and then the Madison Area Technical College. He retired in 2008 to his lakefront home in east Texas and spent his time fishing and doing yard work.
As per his wishes, cremation has taken place, and his ashes will remain at the family property on Howell Club Lake.

Really admirable illustrative technique combined with a bold, obsessive style. I love how he manages to make his hybrid creatures look at once organic and mechanical. Much much more on his site.

Sample Chapter
Rays of the One Light
Weekly Commentaries on the Bible and the Bhagavad Gita
by Swami Kriyananda (J. Donald Walters)
Week 1, At the Heart of Silence—the Eternal Word
Truth is one and eternal. Realize oneness with it in your deathless Self, within.
The following commentary is based on the teachings of Paramhansa Yogananda.
In the Gospel of St. John, Chapter 1, these immortal lines appear:
In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. The same was in the beginning with God. All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made. In him was life; and the life was the light of men. And the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not.
Human vision beholds individuality and separation everywhere. Divine vision beholds the oneness of cosmic vibration, of which all things, no matter how diverse, are manifestations. Cosmic Sound—the "Word" of God—and Cosmic Light: These are eternal. The world, as revealed to us by our senses, is illusory.
In Autobiography of a Yogi, Paramhansa Yogananda relates an early experience he received of the divine aspect of reality:
Sitting on my bed one morning, I fell into a deep reverie.
"What is behind the darkness of closed eyes?" This probing thought came powerfully into my mind. An immense flash of light at once manifested to my inward gaze. Divine shapes of saints, sitting in meditation posture in mountain caves, formed like miniature cinema pictures on the large screen of radiance within my forehead.
"Who are you?" I spoke aloud.
"We are the Himalayan yogis." The celestial response is difficult to describe; my heart was thrilled.
"Ah, I long to go to the Himalayas and become like you!" The vision vanished, but the silvery beams expanded in ever-widening circles to infinity.
"What is this wondrous glow?"
"I am Iswara. I am Light." The voice was as murmuring clouds.
"I want to be one with Thee!"
Out of the slow dwindling of my divine ecstasy, I salvaged a permanent legacy of inspiration to seek God.
Wise are we if we meditate on that experience of Yogananda's, and salvage from it even a breath of his inspiration. For, quite simply, there is nothing else! As the Bhagavad Gita says in the seventh Chapter:
I make and unmake this universe. Apart from Me nothing exists, O Arjuna. All things, like the beads of a necklace, are strung together on the thread of My consciousness, and are sustained by Me.
Thus, through holy scripture, God has spoken to mankind.

ST. LOUIS — As a vegetarian and daily yoga practitioner, Amy Johnson thought she was healthy before she was diagnosed with ovarian cancer in August. Now she consumes 50 pounds of carrots, 25 pounds of Granny Smith apples and 14 heads of romaine lettuce each week to keep it from coming back.
The 43-year-old fashion designer has embraced an unconventional and controversial cancer treatment called Gerson therapy, named for the doctor who developed the vegetarian diet to treat his migraine headaches in the 1940s. Eventually, his practice grew to include numerous other maladies, including cancer.
The therapy is not approved by the Food and Drug Administration or recommended by national cancer organizations. Patients pay $11,000 to spend two weeks at a Gerson clinic in Tijuana, Mexico, to learn the diet of juicing, supplements and enemas that they stay on for two years.
After surgery to remove the right ovary, doctors discovered Johnson's cancer was a rare and aggressive form of clear cell carcinoma that may not respond well to drugs. Johnson had more surgery, including a hysterectomy, and then decided against chemotherapy. She has raised $24,000 from friends and family, and she and her mother traveled to Mexico in October to learn about the therapy that requires a drastic lifestyle change.
"I know chemo works for many people. It didn't make sense to me. I wanted to pump nutrients into my body, not toxins," Johnson said.
Doctors, friends, family members and her design clients tried to talk Johnson into going the traditional route with chemotherapy. Her mother, a nurse, was initially fearful of the decision.
"I was just very leery about it all, but Amy seems to adjust to things so well," said Carolyn Johnson of Highland, Mo. "She's gained back most of her energy and emotionally, she's so much better. Her father and I are just amazed at how well she's handling all this."
Gerson therapy teaches that the body needs to be cleansed of toxins to allow the immune system to heal itself. Participants eat and drink 15 to 20 pounds of organic fruits and vegetables daily. They drink one fresh-squeezed glass of juice every hour, up to 13 a day. They also take up to 60 vitamins and enzyme pills each day. Five times a day, they complete a liquid coffee enema to help the liver "in eliminating toxic residues from the body for good," according to Gerson's website. Castor oil, a laxative, is also taken by mouth regularly.
Johnson still sees a doctor at Barnes-Jewish Hospital for follow-up blood work and scans, but she doesn't want to identify him out of concern for maintaining their relationship. Her last scan in December showed no signs of cancer, and her blood work is normal.
The National Cancer Institute disavows any evidence of the effectiveness of Gerson therapy absent a peer-reviewed clinical trial. The idea of diet as cancer treatment is not widely accepted in the medical community. Fruits and vegetables are thought to play some role in preventing cancer, but not treating it, according to the American Cancer Society. Coffee enemas can lead to infections and dehydration.
Critics take an even harsher stance, calling the Gerson method quackery that preys on the hopes of people with cancer.
"I can't figure out why anyone thinks it's natural," said Dr. David Gorski, a surgical oncologist in Detroit and editor of the blog "Science-Based Medicine." "What's natural about all these supplements? It's not natural to put coffee up your behind. The surgery is what cures the cancer if the cancer's going to be cured. The chemotherapy decreases the chances of its recurring."
Gorski said Gerson patients probably would have the same results with a typical, healthy diet after cancer surgery.
"The thing about cancer, its course can be really variable," Gorski said. "Patients can live a lot longer than expected, they can live a lot shorter."
Gerson's website says the program is "remarkably effective at treating a wide range of chronic degenerative diseases" including melanoma, lymphoma, ovarian cancer and lupus. The clinic does not accept patients with acute leukemia, brain tumors, organ transplants or kidney failure and says the therapy doesn't work for Parkinson's disease or amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (Lou Gehrig's disease). Staff members from the Gerson Institute in San Diego did not respond to a request for comment.
"I'm not saying this is for everybody," Johnson said. "You have to do what you feel is best for you."

My physics book says, "A firecracker sliding on ice has the same total momentum before and after it explodes." I understand this part. This is because of Newton's 3rd law, and no external forces. This is what I really don't get. "The same, however, is not true of a system's kinetic energy. Energetically, that firecracker is very different after it explodes; internal potential energy has become kinetic energy of fragments." It goes on to say, "Nevertheless, the centre-of-mass concept remains useful in categorizing the kinetic energy associated with a system of particles."
How is it that the kinetic energy increased but momentum stayed the same? My problem lies within the equation $K = \frac{1}{2}mv^2$ and $p= mv$.
If kinetic energy increased doesn't that mean that the velocities increased as well? How else would $K$ become more positive? And since $K$ increased $v$ increased and thus $p=mv$ must increase?

I need to test something in a hyper-v instance where two floppy drives need to be present. I can configure the existing one to a .vfd. But I need to replicate a machine that has two floppy drives.
I could not see anything in my searches that mentioned creating another floppy drive. Is the one that is available by default the sole one that can be used?

The Pied Kingfisher (Ceryle rudis) is a water kingfisher and is found widely distributed across Africa and Asia. Their black and white plumage, crest and the habit of hovering over clear lakes and rivers before diving for fish makes it distinctive. Males have a double band across the breast while females have a single gorget that is often broken in the middle. They are usually found in pairs or small family parties. When perched, they often bob thei head and flick up their tails
This kingfisher is about 17 cm long and is white with a black mask, a white supercilium and black breast bands. The crest is neat and the upperparts are barred in black. Several subspecies are recognized within the broad distribution. The nominate race is found in sub-Saharan Africa, extending into West Asia. A former subspecies syriaca is considered as merely a larger northern bird of the nominate species (following Bergmann's rule). Subspecies leucomelanura is found from Afghanistan east into India, Sri Lanka, Thailand and Laos. The subspecies travancoreensis of the Western Ghats is darker with the white reduced. Subspecies C. r. insignis is found in Hainan and southeastern China and has a much larger bill. Males have a narrow second breast-band while females have a single broken breast band
This large stork has a heavy yellow bill with a down-curved tip that gives it a resemblance to an ibis. The head of the adult is bare and orange or reddish in colour. The long tertials are tipped in bright pink and at rest they extend over the back and rump. There is a distinctive black breast band with white scaly markings. The band continues into the underwing coverts and the white tips of the black coverts give it the appearance of white stripes running across the underwing lining. The rest of the body is whitish in adults and the primaries and secondaries are black with a greenish gloss. The legs are yellowish to red but often appear white due their habit of urohidrosis or defecating on their legs especially when at nest. The short tail is black with a green gloss For a stork, it is medium-sized, standing about 93–102 cm (37–40 in) tall, 150–160 cm (59–63 in) in wingspan and weighing 2-3.5 kg (4.4-7.7 lbs). Males and females appear alike but the males of a pair are usually larger than the female.
The downy young are mainly whitish with grey bills and blackish facial skin. The juveniles assume a brownish plumage and like most other storks reach breeding condition after two to three years.
Like all storks, they fly with their neck outstretched. They often make use of the late morning thermals to soar in search of foraging areas

PHILADELPHIA, Pa. – Saturday marked the second day of the CSA Individual Championships in Philadelphia, Pa. as Stanford had two individuals remaining in the Holleran Cup.
Both freshman CC Ho and senior Serena Fagan lost on Saturday, ending their respective seasons.
Ho made it to the quarterfinals after defeating No. 48 Melina Turk of Dartmouth for the third time this season. Ho needed just three sets to put Turk away, winning 11-8, 11-6, 11-8. Ho then faced No. 43 Rachel Scherman of Cornell in a match that went five sets.
Scherman edged Ho in the first set, 12-10, in a set that was crucial to the match. Ho went on to win each of the next two sets to take the advantage. Scherman then came back to win the final two and move on.
Ho's outstanding freshman campaign came to a close after she was the first Stanford freshman to go to the individual championships since Pamela Chua in 2010. She ended the year with a 9-7 overall record.
Fagan lost in the round of 16, falling to No. 42 Lindsay Seginson of Cornell in her first match of the day. Seginson won in three sets to advance, while Fagan ended her Stanford career. In her final season on The Farm, Fagan tallied a record of 7-9 while helping lead the Cardinal to a seventh place finish in the Howe Cup.
Only Fagan and Julia Hemmendinger were seniors on this year's squad. The roster coming back for 2014-15 will feature the majority of the Cardinal's lineup from this season.
Holleran Cup
Round of 16
No. 36 CC Ho (Stanford) def. No. 48 Melina Turk (Dartmouth) 11-8, 11-6, 11-8
No. 42 Lindsay Seginson (Cornell) def. No. 41 Serena Fagan (Stanford) 11-8, 11-8, 11-5
No. 43 Rachel Scherman (Cornell) def. No. 36 CC Ho (Stanford) 12-10, 9-11, 7-11, 11-6, 11-7

I'm thinking if php file is half uploaded he will receive error, and on refresh if file was uploaded he will see it working 100%.

For Immediate Release - August 9, 2000
Contact: Anastasia Burton
Press Secretary
(406) 444-5523
(HELENA)---Governor Marc Racicot, in conjunction with Regional Forester Dale Bosworth, U.S. Forest Service and BLM State Director Mat Millenback, announced the closure of all forested lands (which includes grasslands located within half a mile of the forest) within the following counties, effective midnight Thursday, August 10th:
Governor Racicot cited the dangerous fire conditions existing within the forests as the impetus for the elevation in restrictions. "The record high fire danger with extreme fire potential, the limited fire-fighting resources available to respond to new fire starts and the several recent human-caused fires compel us to declare this elevated level of emergency,"Governor Racicot said. "Conditions are such that it is dangerous for public to be in forested areas because of possibility of being trapped by a fast-spreading fire."
Currently within the SW Montana zone:
Entry into closed areas requires a permit from the appropriate wildfire protection agency, except for homeowners whose principal residence is in a forested area.
The state waters of the Upper Clark Fork River Basin above the confluence of the Flathead and Clark Fork Rivers have been closed to all public recreation, including fishing.
A general permit for public use of the following areas has been approved by the Forest Service and the Department of Natural Resources Conservation (DNRC). The DNRC will update the list as conditions change. In addition, level IV fire restrictions remain in effect for all areas in the list that follows:
The Governor suggested that people should contact the Forest Service or DNRC for additional areas open to the public and for activities that, with a written permit, may be issued.
Governor Racicot emphasized that this Level V closure does not affect Glacier National Park or Yellowstone National Park, as these areas are not located within this zone.
For additional information or questions regarding the closure, call:
Governor Racicot suggested the following internet website for the latest fire information, including maps, restriction levels (and descriptions of what those restrictions entail), closures, etc.,

Rubin's latest book, The Happiness Project, chronicles the year she spent trying out every idea, theory and pop culture fad to increase her joy. Along the way, she learned a lot about herself and the power of the little things in life. Here are nine easy changes Rubin recommends to give your happiness a boost.
1. Make Your Bed
It's little. It's manageable. It's the first thing in your day. Rubin says that of all the tactics she tried, this one is the most popular. Why? Because "for most people outer order contributes to inner calm."
2. Make Three New Friends
New friends broaden your outlook on life, introduce you to new interests and provide priceless support. Also, research shows that being outgoing and talkative can make even the biggest of introverts happier. "By acting more friendly, I made myself feel more friendly," Rubin writes.
3. Toss, Restore, Organize
When you can't find what you need when you need it, the disorder in your life can really start to wear you down. After talking to many of her readers, Rubin found that when people are able to get control over household chaos, they get a bigger happiness boost than they imagined.
"Organizing your home is not as challenging as rethinking your career," she says. "It's more immediate. Just tackle something like a kitchen cabinet or your closet."
4. Sing in the Morning
Getting ready in the morning can be stressful even when you don't have kids who need to get to school. It doesn't matter if your voice is off key or if you don't really know the words to the song. "Singing in the morning reminded me to follow my Ninth Commandment: Lighten Up," Rubin writes.
5. Go to Sleep Earlier
Women everywhere fail to get the advised seven to eight hours of sleep the body needs to function properly. "Insufficient sleep weighs on you more than you think," Rubin says. "Having a sense of energy is very important to happiness."
6. Quit Nagging
This one didn't come to Rubin right away, but now that this piece of wisdom has become part of her life, she feels much more peaceful. These days, instead of trying to get her daughter to pick out her outfit and get dressed in a timely manner every morning, Rubin sets out her daughter's clothes the night before.
7. Start a Book Club

Juan Pablo Galavis and Nikki Ferrell from "The Bachelor" managed to spend another weekend together. This time, the couple headed west for a weekend in Las Vegas. On April 5, Juan Pablo Galavis shared a photo of himself with Nikki Ferrell. They were standing at hole 18 of the Michael Jordan Invitational. This event is held in Las Vegas. Nikki Ferrell also shared a photo of the pair on her own Twitter.
This couple is definitely spending as much time together as they can. In fact, Us Magazine reported that the couple is in constant contact. When they are not together, they spend their time texting and talking via Skype.
The source also revealed that Juan Pablo has finally told Nikki 'I love you.' No details on that big reveal. It is becoming more clear that Nikki and Juan Pablo are happy together regardless of what their critics say about them.
Juan Pablo made it clear during his time on "The Bachelor" that he didn't care what people thought of him, and he still doesn't. He is just enjoying life, and he has found the right woman for him. It isn't clear how long this couple will be together, but the series has managed to have some success in that department lately. Juan Pablo and Nikki could be another couple that makes it down the aisle.
What do you think? How long will Nikki and Juan Pablo last?

Clearly, we love makeup. We also love when companies strive to be kind to this lovely planet we're on, which is why we want to give Sephora a big smooch for launching their Sephora Pure line. The makeup in this line is formulated without a bunch of that chemical-y junk, is made with 95% natural ingredients, and is housed in sustainable (bamboo and recycled metal) packaging. We're loving this Natural Island Sunset Palette ($30) for its shimmering shades and it's eco-aware attitude!

OpenWorld Suggest-a-Session Voting on Oracle Mix now OPEN!
By Klaker-Oracle on Jun 03, 2010
Last year the Oracle OpenWorld team decided to use Oracle Mix as a way to select some of the papers for OpenWorld and this year we are following the same process. The majority of papers for this year's conference have already been selected, however, there are some presentation slots still available so the OpenWorld team are giving you the chance to vote on which papers you want to see at this year's OpenWorld conference.
The voting process has just opened and will close on June 20. I did a quick search on the list of sessions one paper really caught my eye: Case Study: Real-Time data warehousing and fraud detection with Oracle 11gR2 by Dr. Holger Friedrich.
As a data warehouse product manager I would love to see this paper selected. I have attended a number of presentations over the years given by Holger and he is an excellent, knowledgeable and entertaining presenter. The subject area is, for me, very interesting as it covers topics that I know are important to our customers and this case study highlights the innovative use of key database features. I would strongly encourage everyone to please vote for this paper. You can vote for Holger's presentation by going here:
There are some rules relating to the voting process and these are all explained here: https://mix.oracle.com/oow10/faq
A Quick Overview of the voting rules?
1) You have to a member of the Oracle Mix community
But membership is free! To sign up for a Mix account and you are one your way. You can sign-up by clicking on the "Create an Account" link in the top right corner of the Oracle Mix home page: https://mix.oracle.com/
2) You have to vote for 3 different papers
Based on last year's voting pattern, the Mix team found that a number of participants were only voting for their own sessions. This year voters are required to vote on at least three sessions. How do I find the list of presentations? The full list of all available presentations is here: https://mix.oracle.com/oow10/proposals
Good luck and happy voting. Look forward to seeing you all at OpenWorld.

Meike Babel will join
the Green Wave tennis
coaching staff
May 21, 2001
NEW ORLEANS, La. - - Former professional women's tennis player Meike Babel has been hired as an assistant coach for the Tulane women's tennis team, head coach David Schumacher announced on Monday.
Babel joins the Green Wave after having spent the last 10 seasons on the Women's Tennis Association tour. She was ranked as high as No. 27 in singles and was a member of the German Federation Cup team in 1997 and 1998.
"We're extremely excited to have Meike joining the Tulane women's tennis program," Schumacher said. "Her professional experience is something that is rare in the college environment. She will be helpful in recruiting and will definitely be an asset to any player who wants to elevate their level of play."
Babel has claimed two International Tennis Federation (ITF) singles titles, taking top honors at the Paderborn (Germany) and Madeira (Portugal) tournaments. In addition, she won her first doubles title on the Sanex WTA Tour at the 1998 Istanbul tournament with partner Laurence Coutois. A native of Langen, Germany, Babel posted a career record of 132-112. She reached the third round of both the Australian and French Opens, while reaching the second round at both Wimbeldon and the U.S. Open.
In 1998, Babel upset No. 22 Brenda Schultz-McCarthy at Indian Wells. She also upset hometown favorite Zina Garrison in Houston in 1994 and was nominated for the 1992 Sanex WTA Tour Most Impressive Newcomer award.
"I'm excited to be joining the Tulane women's tennis program," Babel said. "After the frustrating decision to retire from professional tennis, I feel my job as an assistant will be a challenge that I can, and do, look forward to. I think there is so much potential at Tulane. After seeing what has been achieved so far, I'm convinced that with the right players, Tulane will be able to not play with, but beat, the big names in college tennis. This is certainly what I am hoping to contribute to."

It is no secret that Brad Pitt is one of Hollywood's most powerful celebrities. As a result, when he wants to a movie made, it will be produced. Therefore, fans should not be surprised that Brad Pitt's wish to produce a film based on General Stanley McChrystal's fall from grace is coming to fruition. This major announcement was reported in a Monday story by Variety.
The film is titled, "The Operators", and it is being financed through Pitt's production company, Plan B. Interestingly, the story also announced that the film has already settled on a director for the wartime political drama. David Michod is best known for directing "Animal Kingdom", and he has been named to lead the production for the highly anticipated film.
Considering Brad Pitt's intense interest to have this film produced, fans should not be surprised to that he will be playing a major role in the film. A Monday story by E! Online reveals that Pitt is cast to star as General McChrystal in the production.
The film is based off of the hit best seller "The Operators: The Wild and Terrifying Inside Story of America's War in Afghanistan". This book detailed the political firestorm that ensued after General Stanley McChrystal gave a controversial interview to "Rolling Stone" where he questioned the effectiveness of President Obama's plan.
It is not uncommon for celebrities to want to use their art form to express their political beliefs, and it will be interesting to see the vision that Michod and Pitt create. Regardless, it is highly likely that this film will receive critical success and be a major draw at the box office.
Are you excited to see this fascinating tale brought to life on the movie screen? It is no secret that Brad Pitt has liberal political views, are you concerned that these will influence the film excessively?

Football & Concussions
August 16, 2007
Football practice is in full swing all over the country. But sometimes, the goal of winning can put these young athletes at risk. Dr. Mom reports on why coaches and parents need to understand the serious problem of concussions.
Friday Night Lights is just around the corner with marching bands, cheering fans, and the big 'play of the night.' With coming events of daily football practice and Friday night games, parents and coaches need to be aware of the symptoms of concussions. Approximately 40,000 high school football players nationwide suffer concussions, which are considered mild traumatic brain injuries (MTBI). Football is not the only culprit of concussions. Brain trauma can occur is any contact sport, plus biking, skateboarding, skiing, roller skating/blading. Altogether about 300,000 traumatic brain injuries occur each year in sports and recreation in the United States.
The Center for Disease Control (CDC) has developed the "Heads Up: Concussion in High School Sports" that gives concussion information to coaches and parents. This tool kit is available at no cost.
What is Concussion?
When a person receives a bump, blow, or jolt to the head, the brain can bang or bump into the skull, causing the brain to bruise or blood vessels to tear. Jarring and bruising of the brain causes the brain to not function normally.
Symptoms may be very subtle or show up right away, others can show up days or weeks after the injury.
- Feeling dazed, dizzy, or lightheaded, "seeing stars"
- Confusion
- Memory problems
- Blurred vision
- Ringing ears
- Nausea
- Difficulty concentrating
- Difficulty with balance and/or coordination
- Feeling anxious or irritable
- Feeling overly tired
Hey, Coach, when can I get back in the game?
Getting back into the game before your brain has had time to heal can result in a condition called "second impact syndrome." Second impact syndrome is when a player receives another head injury days or weeks following the first concussion. This second impact is more likely to cause swelling of the brain and can be fatal. Studies have shown that after athletes sustain one concussion, they are 3 times more likely to sustain a second concussion compared to other players.
Preventing ConcussionWith all contact sports, injuries can occur:
- Make sure you follow the safety rules of the coach and the sport
- Use equipment that is maintained and properly fitted
- Practice good sportsmanship

24 Hours Away from Windows 8
The highly anticipated Windows 8 is less than 24 hours from release and experts and analyst are starting to weight in on what this means for Microsoft. This has already been named the most important release in technology this year. It's the difference between Microsoft's continued decline of market share and profits or a huge comeback story for the once leading tech giant. In a conversation I was having with an attorney yesterday, he asked me just what the new Windows is going to mean to him. This is a very difficult question to answer because I believe Windows 8 means something different to everyone. The user experience from desktop, to tablet, to mobile is one Apple has defined. Microsoft has taken a stab at a completely different interface than previous years. Along with a new interface, Windows 8 comes with better security, better gaming performance thanks to the new Intel i5 and SoC microchips built into the devices, along with Microsoft driven application renovation like Skype and Xbox. However, analysts are still worried about the "openness" of application creation from 3rd party companies. If Windows is truly going to compete in mobile than they have to have a clear infrastructure for developers like the infrastructure from Google and Apple. There is no doubt this release will do well out of the gates but will it be enough for Windows to finally compete against the current leaders in mobile?
What the Rising Stock Meant for Facebook Employees
Yesterday I reported on the sudden increase in stock from Facebook thanks to the earning reports and the success Facebook is having in the mobile space in recent months. But the rising stock didn't just mean the company is happy. Thanks to Facebook giving a percentage of shares to their employees (over 200 Million) all the employees became a little richer. In fact, those shares are worth approximately 5.2 Billion dollars split among the employees. You do the math, that means if Facebook employed 300 employees, each had 17K shares at the current stock price than each employee would be close to a half of million richer. We do take account that certain executives have more than the first year developers but you get the point. This is the direction that Facebook and the team at Facebook have been looking to go since the first few months of the devastating IPO.
Blackberry's Largest Account Gone
The decline of Blackberry's success has been rapid for the past few years but now its worst than every as Blackberry is losing their largest account since the beginning. The government including the FBI, Congress and even President Obama has been carrying Blackberrys since day one but Customs Enforcement is changing it all as they have just selected to give all their employees iPhones. Although this was certainly a divesting blow to the once-leading Smartphone maker, it's worst as other governmental departments are looking to part ways as well. As recent as 2005, Blackberry owned over 60% of the marketshare but has seen their shares decrease to less than 5% because of Apple and Android.
Want to Chat with Someone of a Different Language?
Japan-based DOCOMO has developed a new app that allows individuals that speak two different languages to chat with real-time translation. The new app "Hanashite Hon'yaku" (say that 5 times fast if you can say it at all) will allow you to speak to individuals in real-time while the app translates the conversation. The new app will be available on Android November 1st and will include languages Japanese, English, Chinese and Korean but looks to add French, German, Indonesian, Italian, Portuguese, Spanish and Thai by end of November. With this new revolution, teamed up with live video conferencing, how do you think this will revolutionize how individuals and businesses interact or in the education sector?
Facebook Leads Among Teens
It was no surprise that Facebook still leads in social media among teenagers but I believe the biggest surprise was the other social media accounts that were in the mix. A recent survey spoke with 7,700 teenagers asking them to rank their social media sites 1-3. In the survey, Facebook led with 3,280 teens picking Facebook as their go-to social site followed by 2,118 for Twitter and just over 900 for Instagram. Google+ came in forth with over 400. LinkedIN, Pinterest, Flickr and Tumblr were in the mix behind the top 4. One of the biggest surprises was Google+ success for only being out just over a year and beating out sites like Pinterest and Flickr.

Disciplines of Life
Sometimes we get discouraged. Life in general seems tough. We are tempted to believe that this life should be easy, without warfare or struggles. However, I want to let you know that such is not true. Quite the contrary, the Word of God says that we struggle consistently against Satan, our enemy (Eph 6:12). He is out to steal our joy and peace, kill us, and destroy our children and families (Joh 10:10). If we are not aggressively seeking God, we will gradually slide into a lackadaisical neutrality of ho-hum. God wants you to know who He is! He is your Hope (Ps 25:5), your Strength (Ex 15:2), your Healer (Ex 15:26), your Deliverer (2 Sa 22:2), your Shelter (Ps 5:11), etc. He will not fail you!
No matter what you face in life, I want you to know that you can be victorious (1 Co 15:57) even when the odds are against you. Do not fear or be afraid. Stand fast in God (Ga 5:1)! He is our Anchor (Heb 6:19) in the storms of life. We can trust Him!
A Fresh Commitment?

The National Association of Home Builders (NAHB) yesterday praised the the U.S. House for approving H.R. 3370, the flood insurance legislation with a vote of 306-91. NAHB stated the passing of the bill will boost home building and remodeling and benefit home buyers and home owners. The Senate is expected to vote on the House bill at the end of the week.
The House bill, The Homeowner Flood Insurance Affordability Act, blocks premiums from raising no more than 18% per property for any one year under the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP). Congressman Michael Grimm (R-NY) put forth the bill in response to constituents complaining premiums had increased to rates they could no longer afford. The bill was written to correct the Biggert-Waters Flood Insurance Reform Act, that impose a premium rate increase of 25% on some flood policies that received subsidies through NFIP.
The bipartisan legislation does have its critics, like Rep. Jeb Hensarling (R-Texas), Chairman of the House Financial Services Committee, who stated on Feb. 10th, "Ultimately, hardworking American taxpayers should not be forced to subsidize other people's flood insurance premiums."
The National Flood Insurance Program is run by FEMA, the program is $24 billion in debt to the Treasury, those that buy flood insurance through the program are charged about 40% of the full cost, taxpayers subsidize the rest.

Blackjack Ballroom player MissMA has experienced a string of jackpot wins since April 2001 that have amassed a total of $657 290 over 10 jackpots - surely something of an online gambling record.
Each win over the years has been over $20 000, with the biggest single payout $183,000 hit. Last week she made her most recent win of $40 989 on the popular video slot Cash Splash 5 Reel at Blackjack Ballroom.
"I used to be a big casino player, but I like this so much better because it's in the comfort of my own home and 'no smoking', said the player. "At Blackjack Ballroom new players have the chance to use $500 of the casino's money to play any of the 280 online games absolutely free for one hour. Any credits that the player wins can be used after the free hour in any of the Rewards Affiliates online casinos, with the luckiest players hitting the jackpot without ever having touched their wallets."
MissMA clearly exploits the offer to the full.
The online casino also lays claim to one of the biggest progressives win at an online casino - that of Finn player KlausE who hit a $5.5 million jackpot in April this year with only a 50 cent bet.

After a Psychiatrist Counsels a Pro Football Team, They're Offended and He's Defensive
Because Mandell, a psychiatrist, is a prominent researcher into brain chemistry and psychopharmacology, his experiments with dangerous drugs are understandable. But it is not so easy to comprehend why Dr. Mandell ever got involved professionally with the San Diego Chargers.
Actually, Mandell first became interested in football because of his son, Ross, now 13, and he was also a social friend of Chargers owner Gene Klein. And in 1972 San Diego was having such a miserable season that coach Harland Svare was willing to try anything. He asked Mandell to become resident shrink for a team which then included Duane Thomas, the All-Pro recluse, and Tim Rossovich, the linebacker notorious for eating glass. Observing the players close up, Mandell (who insisted that he not be paid) says he discovered that they were typecast: those who played on offense were conservative and more disciplined; most defensive players were free spirits.
Mandell also learned how much some team members depended on amphetamines. "Doc," one player told him, "I'm not about to go out there against a guy who's grunting and drooling and comin' at me with big dilated pupils unless I'm in the same condition."
Mandell says that 50 to 60 percent of the Chargers used drugs to produce "the rageful football syndrome." But he argues, "This was not drug abuse. There was great self-discipline. They hated it, but it was drug use for function. Nobody used it off season."
If Mandell had kept his ruminations to himself, he might still have friends on the team. Instead he wrote a book, The Nightmare Season, out this month, portions of which were published in a San Diego newspaper. His erstwhile friend Gene Klein says, "The book is totally inaccurate. It's full of lies and innuendos." And when Harland Svare was fired as general manager, he blamed Mandell's book for "destroying my credibility" and vowed to "pursue all remedies available."
"I love Gene," psychiatrist Mandell says, "I love Harland. If they can't see the love in the book, it makes me crazy." The National Football League did not see it either, apparently, and banned Mandell unofficially from NFL locker rooms for life, as well as fining Klein, Svare and eight San Diego players.
To make matters more complicated, Mandell had learned in 1972 that he had a heart problem. He gave up smoking, became a vegetarian and lost 50 pounds. He also divorced his wife of 22 years. He gets high these days, he says, by running 12 miles every morning: "I'm a junkie out there. It's my ecstasy."
Professionally, he continues as co-chairman of the Department of Psychiatry at the University of California at San Diego Medical School.
In the furor over his book, Mandell can find some comfort in statistics. During the 1973 season, with Dr. Mandell in attendance, the Chargers' record was two wins, 11 losses and one tie. Last year, with the psychiatrist no closer than a box seat at any game, the team won two and lost 12.

Regional Handicraft Council (Dekranasda) of Bangli County organized Endek Fashion Contest at the Giri Kusuma Cultural Hall, Thursday (May 30). With the theme "My Endek, My Culture," the cultural contest was followed by 38 participants constituting the representatives of regional working unit (SKPD) and regional and state-owned enterprises in Bangli.
Aside from design or motif, the criteria assessed by the jury panel were the neatness of sewing, clothing (standard fashion design used by the agency uniform), stage control elements and expression of each participant. Of the criteria, design or motif was the most significant element in the contest. "The contest is expected to stimulate the development of endek clothes," said Chairperson of the Regional Handicraft Council of Bangli, Mrs. Erik Gianyar.
The endek fashion contest, explained Mrs. Erik Gianyar, was an effort to preserve the potential of weaving craft, so that it was not undermined in harmony with the passage of times. Moreover, the endek clothes had been favored by many lineups, both young and old. "Celebration of the 809th anniversary of Bangli town is a good moment to introduce further the endek clothes," she said.
Meanwhile, First Assistant to Regional Secretary of Bangli Government, Alit Darmawan, said that such an event would be able to stimulate the development of endek clothes in Bangli County. Similar event should continue to be held, so that it could contribute to the development of endek in Bali. "The best design of endek in the contest will be used as sample of working clothes by Bangli government in the future," he said. (BTN/015)

2006 high school grads and college enrollment
April 27, 2007
In October 2006, 65.8 percent of high school graduates from the class of 2006 were enrolled in colleges or universities. Since 2001, the college enrollment rate for recent high school graduates has been trending upward.
The college enrollment rate of young women, 66.0 percent, was about the same as that of young men, 65.5 percent.
Asians were considerably more likely than whites, blacks, and Hispanics to be enrolled in college in the fall following their high school graduation.
This information is from a supplement to the October 2006 Current Population Survey. Additional information is available from "College Enrollment and Work Activity of 2006 High School Graduates," (PDF) (TXT), news release USDL 07-0604.

No lockouts coming on the PGA Tour
As the NFL takes it labor disagreement into the courts and similar storm clouds gather over the NBA, it should be pointed out the PGA Tour has no such fears at the moment.
True, the economic downturn has taken a toll on sponsorships around professional golf, and Tiger Woods' sustained slump in the wake of his embarrassing divorce scandal has cost the sport greatly as well.
But in terms of its economic model and other issues in the foreseeable future, things are going just fine for the PGA Tour under Commissioner Tim Finchem.
Take discipline, for example.
"What I have to deal with on Monday morning typically is a player saying a bad word," Finchem said Sunday at the WGC-Cadillac Championship at Doral. "It's a very different kind of situation the commissioners of the team sports are dealing with."
There was quite a stir recently over Woods' repeated spitting on the putting surface in Dubai, for which he was fined, but that's already been swept aside, it seems.
"It is a matter of great concern to our players," Finchem said. "There isn't anything specifically in our regulations about it. We had another player do the same thing Tiger did on national television on the same day, and we have yet to hear a word about it, which is the difference between Tiger Woods and everybody else."
Professional golf is a different animal as well when it comes to the major sports.
No nightclub shootings here.
Few police reports now that John Daly has faded from view.
Just the occasional blue word picked up by on-course boom mikes.
"That's why 92 percent of Americans think that our players are role models," Finchem said, "because the conduct on our tour is very good."

Adult Child of Hippies
The cover of Adult Child of Hippies is priceless. For anyone who started out life in the 1960s or 1970s, a version of this photograph of a mostly-naked, preadolescent girl sporting a flower in her mouth probably exists in the family album.
Willow Yamauchi is banking on the fact that the rest of the book will resonate with readers just as strongly. A funny, inspired work in the vein of Jeff Foxworthy's You Might be a Redneck…, Yamauchi's humor will help you come to terms with whether or not you were raised by wolves... er, hippies. Each page contains a simple phrase such as "You breast-fed until grade school." The facing page has a vintage photograph of a real-life flower-child to bring back memories.
There are 144 statements for the reader to identify with, become horrified by, or both. There is extra credit available. For example, you get one point for noting that you practiced yoga daily as a child, but you get a bonus point if your family did it while naked. At the end of the book is a breakdown of scores and the author's tongue-in-cheek assessment of just how far you've distanced yourself from your hippie roots.
I found myself laughing out loud many times as I made my way through the book and it will definitely occupy a place on my bookshelf that is easy to find so that when I have other "flower children" over for dinner we can thumb through it and relive our childhoods. Even if you don't think you were a child of hippies, Willow Yamauchi's book might give you a reason to treat the rest of us with a little more compassion in light of what we had to endure growing up during the Woodstock Era.

House GOP's 2012 Mission: Unity Against Obama
When Republicans took over the majority in the House of Representatives, they had a strong sense of unity and purpose. Their mood is more sober a year later, after a series of partisan political fights throughout 2011 blocked their agenda and tarnished their image among voters. So this past weekend, the House GOP gathered in Baltimore to regroup and set out their priorities for 2012.

Muhal Richard Abrams & Marty Ehrlich: Blues to You
Blues To You
Muhal Richard Abrams (piano) and Marty Ehrlich (alto sax)
The Open Air Meeting (New World 80512 2)
Muhal Richard Abrams (piano), Marty Ehrlich (alto sax).
Composed by Muhal Richard Abrams & Marty Ehrlich.
Recorded: New York, August 11, 1996
Rating: 88/100 (learn more)
The most rooted, unsophisticated, basic blues – that's what Midwesterners Abrams (Illinois) and Ehrlich (Minnesota) decided to tackle during this New York concert. And they do it in such a raw, uninhibited way, with reverence to the old masters but without any stiff revivalist attitude, that they easily convince us that the blues live forever, and in them too. Those who may find it strange from supposed modernists, who have even been associated with free music, should listen to the intensity of the piano sound and of the alto growls to understand the link.

The Hollywood star shocks fans after being photographed with Elizabeth Taylor and Montgomery Clift on the back of his bald head.
14:49, UK, Friday 05 September 2014
James Franco arrived at Venice Film Festival looking almost unrecognisable with a bald head and bizarre inking on the back of his head.
The star was attending a screening of The Sound And The Fury when he flashed the fake tattoo showing Elizabeth Taylor and Montgomery Clift on the back of his head.
Franco's new look is for a different film called Zeroville, where he plays a man who travels to Hollywood and becomes obsessed with film.
In the Steve Erickson novel the character Ike Jerome, also known as Vikar, gets a tattoo of Taylor and Clift from the 1951 film A Place In The Sun on the back of his head.
Franco has been updating his fans on his transformation by regularly uploading photos to his Instagram account.
One photo appeared to show a make-up artist painting the tattoo onto his scalp.
Franco was in Venice to promote his new film, which he directed and stars in, based on the William Faulkner novel, The Sound And The Fury.
Jon Hamm and Seth Rogen are among the other cast members in the film which is set in Mississippi at the turn of the 20th century and follows the decline and fall of an aristocratic Southern family over three decades.
It is the second adaptation of the novel following the 1959 film starring Yul Brynner.
It is being shown out of the main competition at the festival.

The Dayton Dutch Lions opened the regular season last week with a disappointing 3-3 draw against the Cincinnati Kings. The Lions dominated possession from the beginning creating scoring chances and finding the back of the net in the 14th minute. Despite a comfortable 2-0 lead at the half, the Lions were unable to put the match away allowing the Kings to score three goals late in the second half to level things out for the 3-3 final. The Dutch Lions look to build on the season opener, correcting some breakdowns in their team shape, as they go into this weekend's match against the Cleveland Internationals.
The Internationals entered the Premier Development League in 2004 under the ownership of Yugoslavian-born and ex-NASL player George Nanchoff. The inaugural season was a huge disappointment. After getting off to great start with a 3-0 victory over the Toledo Slayers, the Internationals went on to suffer several defeats including three thrashings of 5-0, 5-1, and 4-1 at the hand of the Michigan Bucks, Indiana Invaders and Kalamazoo Kingdom. The Internationals would go on to find themselves in dead last Great Lakes Division.
With higher expectations in 2005, the Internationals opened the season with two wins and a tie in their first three matches. In spite of their strong start, things quickly went downhill as the Internationals endured a 7 game winless streak. They closed out the season with a couple of wins to provide a ray of sunshine, in an otherwise stormy season, to finish 7th in the Division.
The Internationals continued to struggle in the 2006 and 2007 seasons. In 2006 they lost their home field at St. Edwards High School and were forced to travel throughout the season. The Cleveland side's frustration was apparent managing only one victory in the final match of the season. While the 2007 season was an improvement for the Internationals, they remained one of the Central Conference least effective teams. A five game unbeaten streak at the end of the season set the stage for what would be the best season in club history.
The Internationals started the 2008 season with a pair of wins and looked to be in impressive form. This would carry on through the season bringing the club to verge of the playoffs for the first time. The Internationals would finish the regular season in second place and fall in the playoffs to the eventual PDL Champions Thunder Bay Chill. Despite this new found success, the club stepped backwards in 2009 finishing sixth in the Great Lakes Division and missing the playoffs.
As the Internationals travel to Dayton Saturday to take on the Dutch Lions, both sides have something to prove. The Internationals will be looking to regain their 2008 form and launch a new bid for the playoffs. The Dutch Lions will be looking for their first PDL win and to further refine their Dutch style of play demonstrating that they know how to finish a match. Saturday's match is scheduled for 7:30pm at Miami Valley South Stadium in Bellbrook. Tickets are available for purchase on line at TicketWeb and at the gate.

|This thesis addresses one of the emerging topics in Sonar Signal Processing.,viz.the implementation of a target classifier for the noise sources in the ocean, as the operator assisted classification turns out to be tedious,laborious and time consuming.In the work reported in this thesis,various judiciously chosen components of the feature vector are used for realizing the newly proposed Hierarchical Target Trimming Model.The performance of the proposed classifier has been compared with the Euclidean distance and Fuzzy K-Nearest Neighbour Model classifiers and is found to have better success rates.The procedures for generating the Target Feature Record or the Feature vector from the spectral,cepstral and bispectral features have also been suggested.The Feature vector ,so generated from the noise data waveform is compared with the feature vectors available in the knowledge base and the most matching pattern is identified,for the purpose of target classification.In an attempt to improve the success rate of the Feature Vector based classifier,the proposed system has been augmented with the HMM based Classifier.Institutions where both the classifier decisions disagree,a contention resolving mechanism built around the DUET algorithm has been suggested.

|Solid phase extraction (SPE) is a powerful technique for preconcentration/removal or separation of trace and ultra trace amounts of toxic and nutrient elements. SPE effectively simplifies the labour intensive sample preparation, increase its reliability and eliminate the clean up step by using more selective extraction procedures. The synthesis of sorbents with a simplified procedure and diminution of the risks of errors shows the interest in the areas of environmental monitoring, geochemical exploration, food, agricultural, pharmaceutical, biochemical industry and high purity metal designing, etc. There is no universal SPE method because the sample pretreatment depends strongly on the analytical demand. But there is always an increasing demand for more sensitive, selective, rapid and reliable analytical procedures. Among the various materials, chelate modified naphthalene, activated carbon and chelate functionalized highly cross linked polymers are most important. In the biological and environmental field, large numbers of samples are to be analysed within a short span of time. Hence, online flow injection methods are preferred as they allow extraction, separation, identification and quantification of many numbers of analytes. The flow injection online preconcentration flame AAS procedure developed allows the determination of as low as 0.1 µg/l of nickel in soil and cobalt in human hair samples. The developed procedure is precise and rapid and allows the analysis of 30 samples per hour with a loading time of 60 s. The online FI manifold used in the present study permits high sampling, loading rates and thus resulting in higher preconcentration/enrichment factors of -725 and 600 for cobalt and nickel respectively with a 1 min preconcentration time compared to conventional FAAS signal. These enrichment factors are far superior to hitherto developed on line preconcentration procedures for inorganics. The instrumentation adopted in the present study allows much simpler equipment and low maintenance costs compared to costlier ICP-AES or ICP-MS instruments.
|Breast cancer is the most common non - skin malignancy in women and a leading cause of female morality. A potentially important strategy for reducing this menace is the detection at an early stage . The invention of non-invasive and non-ionizing microwave technique, to reveal the internal structure of biological objects was a break through in the field of medical diagnostics. Electrical properties of biological tissues and their interaction with electromagmetic waves have direct impact on human life. This thesis focuses on theoretical and experimental investigations of active microwave imaging techniques for breast cancer detection.

|The present study aims at the preparation of an ABS (acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene) type toughened thermoplastic by melt blending polystyrene (PS) and powdered nitrile rubber (NBR). The product is an interesting class of toughened thermoplastic, which would combine the superior mechanical and processing characteristics of PS and the excellent oil-resistant properties of NBR. In this thesis an attempt has been made to investigate systematically the effect of compatibilisation and dynamic vulcanisation on the morphology and properties of powdered nitrile rubber toughened polystyrene.

|Precipitated silica is the most promising alternative for carbon black in tyre tread compounds due to its improved performance in terms of rolling resistance and wet grip.But its poor processability is a serious limitation to its commercial application.This thesis suggests a novel route for the incorporation of silica in rubbers,i.e.,precipitation of silica in rubber latex followed by coagulation of the latex to get rubber-silica maseterbatch.Composites with in situ precipitated silica showed improved processability and mechanical properties,when compared to conventional silica composites.

|The coplanar wave guide is an attractive device in microwave integrated circuits due to its uniplanar nature, ease of fabrication and low production cost. Several attempts are already done to explore the radiating modes in coplanar wave guide transmission lines. Usually coplanar wave guides are excited by an SMA connector with its centre conductor connected to the exact middle of the centre strip and the outer ground conductor to the two ground strips. The mode excited on it is purely a bound mode. The E-field distribution in the two slots are out of phase and there for cancels at the far field. This thesis addresses an attempt to excite an in phase E-field distribution in the two slots of the co planar wave guide by employing a feed asymmetry, in order to get radiation from the two large slot discontinuities of the coplanar waveguide. The omni directional distribution of the radiating energy can be achieved by widening the centre strip.The first part of the thesis deals with the investigations on the resonance phenomena of conventional coplanar waveguides at higher frequency bands. Then an offset fed open circuited coplanar waveguide supporting resonance/radiation phenomena is analyzed. Finally, a novel compact co planar antenna geometry with dual band characteristics, suitable for mobile terminal applications is designed and characterized using the inferences from the above study.

|Various synthesis routes have been developed in recent years for the preparation of nanoparticles. One of those methods is polymer induced crystallization. The first objective of the present work was to prepare nano ZnO powder by polymer induced crystallization in chitosan solution and to characterize the material using different techniques like TEM, SEM, XRD, FTLR, UV spectroscopy, TGA, DSC etc.The second object of the study is to prepare composites using nano ZnO. It has been undertaken to explore the potential of nano ZnO as reinforcement in engineering as well as commodity thermoplastics to widen their application spectra. We selected three engineering thermoplastics like [poly ethylene terephthalate, polyamide 6, and polycarbonate] and three commodity plastics like [polypropylene, high density polyethylene, and polystyrene] for the study. To date one of the few disadvantages associated with nanoparticle incorporation has concerned toughness and impact performance. Modification of polymers could reduce impact performance. The present study also focused on whether nano ZnO can act as a modifier for thennoplastics, without sacrificing their impact strength.

College Hockey:Quinnipiac Defeats Union in Longest Game in NCAA History
Holt Nets Game Winner in Fifth Overtime
SCHENECTADY, N.Y. — History took place at Messa Rink on Friday as Union and Quinnipiac needed five hours and 57 minutes (150 minutes and 22 seconds of actual game time) to decide the winner of the first game of the ECAC quarterfinals.
A little more than a minute into the fifth overtime, it became the longest game in the history of NCAA college hockey, breaking the record set by Union and Yale on March 4, 2006, in which the Bulldogs topped the Dutchmen, 3-2, in a game that lasted 141:35.
The game ended at 1:03 a.m. EST.
Quinnipiac's Greg Holt was the hero as his goal with 9:38 remaining in the fifth overtime ended the epic contest.
"My guys wanted it," said Quinnipiac head coach Rand Pecknold. "In the d-zone we were excellent."
"I'm proud of our guys," said Union head coach Nate Leaman. "Outside of the second period we carried the game."
The Dutchmen had the upper hand the first frame as they outshot the Bobcats 19-7, and controlled the play on the boards and in the faceoff circle. But, they were only able to come out the period with a 2-1 lead.
Union's Stephane Boileau scored the first goal of the game 7:13 into the period when he wristed a bad angle shot past Quinnipiac goaltender Dan Clarke, who lost sight of the puck and was caught out of position on the play.
A little over two minutes later, Quinnipiac's Jeremy Langlois was called for tripping in the offensive zone to put Union on the power-play. It didn't take the Union power-play unit long to capitalize on their opportunity as they netted the second goal of the game just 17 seconds into the man advantage.
The goal was initiated by Union's Jason Walters who rang a shot off of the left post from the point. The puck then trickled behind Clarke where Mario Valery-Trabucco knocked the puck into the net, extending his point streak to nine games and his goal scoring streak to six games.
Who would have thought that Union, who came into the game with the fifth ranked offense in the nation, would be shutout for the next six and half periods?
Quinnipiac cut their deficit in half when Scott Zurevinski ripped a slap shot from the right circle past Union netminder Keith Kinkaid 6:59 left in the period.
The second period was a different story as the Bobcats manhandled the Dutchmen, outshooting their opponent 11-1, and tied the game at two goals apiece.
Quinnipiac's tying goal came on the power-play 1:29 into the period. Just 30 seconds into the power-play, Holt beat Union defenseman Shawn Stuart down the right boards and passed the puck to Langlois, who was streaking to the front of the Union net. Langlois received Holt's pass and put the puck into the back of the net.
This would be the last goal for a very, very long time.
The Bobcats received back-to-back man advantages late in the frame, but they were unable to beat Kinkaid and the Union penalty kill.
The final frame of regulation was a scoreless one, leaving the game tied at two and the shots tied at 27.
Union got the best opportunities of the period. First, with about six minutes into the period Quinnipiac's Russell Goodman was assessed a five minute penalty for boarding. The Bobcat penalty kill was stellar though as they killed the penalty and only allowed two shots while getting two shots of their own.
The second big chance for Union came with under two minutes left in regulation when Eric Lampe was penalized for hooking and taking down Walters. But, once again Quinnipiac was able to stymie the Union attack and send the game into overtime.
The first overtime was uneventful, but the second overtime was a wild affair as each team had many great scoring opportunities. The highlight of the frame came when Valery-Trabucco saved the game for his team when he was able to knock a loose puck away from an empty net after Kinkaid dropped his stick behind the net on a Quinnipiac dump, which redirected the puck into the crease.
In the third overtime, Union's Jon Lareau had point blank shot but Clarke was able to knock it aside and send the game into a fourth overtime.
By the fourth overtime players on both sides were noticeably out of gas and the play slowed down.
It looked like Union was going to end the game when Wayne Simpson went down on Clarke on a breakaway, but Clarke was once again up to the task as he made one of this 73 saves on the night.
"It's great we got to win," said Clarke. "Staying calm is the biggest thing."
Holt's goal came less than two minutes later as he fired a shot from the bottom of the left circle that beat Kinkaid short side.
"I was just trying to get the puck to the net," said Holt. "It went right underneath his arm."
The Dutchmen and Bobcats will faceoff again tomorrow at Messa Rink for Game 2 of their series.
"Tomorrow night's another game," said a disappointed Leaman. "We're playing for our season tomorrow."
"We'll see what happens," said Pecknold. "My guys are pretty jacked right now."

Monoclonal Gammopathy
Monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance (MGUS) is a rare condition caused by an overabundance of a certain protein in your blood. It is a diseases and condition in which a low or non-quantifiable level of a monoclonal paraprotein is detected in the blood by means of protein electrophoresis . Monoclonal gammopathy can occur in both sexes and in people of all backgrounds and occupations. In about 80 percent of cases, the abnormal protein does not cause any problems. These disorders do not usually cause symptoms, so they are almost always discovered by chance when laboratory tests are performed for other purposes, such as to measure protein in the blood. However, the monoclonal antibody can bind to nerves and lead to numbness, tingling, and weakness. Monoclonal gammopathy is present in 2 percent to 4 percent of adults older than age 50. The condition is often found on a routine blood test called plasma electrophoresis done for some other reason. Monoclonal gammopathy typically causes no signs or symptoms and doesn't require treatment. In most cases, monoclonal gammopathy is not related to a serious disorder. However, close follow-up is often recommended for people with monoclonal gammopathy due to their increased risk of cancer. About 1 percent of individuals with monoclonal gammopathy ultimately develop multiple myeloma or a related cancer. If you have a family history of multiple myeloma, talk to your doctor about whether testing for monoclonal gammopathy is appropriate for you.
A monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance is a buildup of monoclonal antibodies produced by abnormal but noncancerous plasma cells. A plasma cell is a type of white blood cell. These antibodies circulate in the blood, ready to attack any viruses and bacteria that may be present in the body. When an abnormally large amount of one particular antibody is produced, this is called monoclonal gammopathy. All the antibodies are identical. Sometimes, monoclonal gammopathy is called paraproteinaemia . The individual antibody that is being produced in large amounts is called an M-protein. Monoclonal gammopathy of unknown significance is a non-cancerous condition. The levels of antibody in MGUS, although raised, are not as high as the amount produced in people with myeloma and some types of lymphoma.

It wasn't just about the man's brutish verbal treatment of the extraordinary African American athletes who have helped grow his treasury in tandem with his ego. He clearly disdains the humanity and aptitude of his youthful mistress, has no respect for his marriage, and generally dwells in a byzantine mindset of malice and misogyny.
We seem stained with a toxic blend of commerce and contempt.
He's a singular, decidedly vulgar billionaire who doesn't understand that freedom of speech does not serve the freedom to hate. Singular because, unlike innumerable other spoiled men of privilege and power, he happened to be caught on tape. There is no doubt that he speaks for many other gilded goons in a society that appears more lacerated by bigotry and derision than at any time in modern memory.
This column applauds the swift and decisive reaction of the Commissioner of Basketball, Adam Silver. By banning the scoundrel for life (an action that may ironically yield the big mouth a windfall in profit as he peddles his long-tortured team), Silver demonstrated expeditious leadership and conviction rarely seen or heard in this equivocal nation of politicians, preachers, and social thespians. We seem stained with a free-flowing, toxic blend of commerce and contempt.
Percolating just underneath our trademark American optimism is a menacing, creepy insolence directed at people with dark skin, or meager funds, or an actual need for health insurance. There is, in our nation, a generalized anxiety about the heartily approving tone of our hierarchy of systemic patriots. I'm a patriot myself and I weep a bit when singing "God Bless America" or viewing the US flag flying above our consulate in Rome or Bangkok. It's hard not to love home especially when you love it enough to despair of its flaws.
Commissioner Silver did the right thing in banishing the malevolent owner from the very landscape of the National Basketball Association. There were business considerations, and elements of political craft in the commissioner's decision, but it was not a disingenuous act. In this era of Congressional gridlock, presidential vacillation, and the deadly cynicism of the automotive industry, it was a well-executed bolt of lightning.
So now, what are you and I going to do about the smoldering racism and bigotry of this culture? Applaud the NBA and then go on with our business even as we forced to accede to the mercurial and dubious price adjustments of the petroleum cartels?
No! You and I cannot deliver punishing edicts upon bigots any more than we can contain our own occasional slides into discriminatory feelings or unseemly words. But we can seize this moment and teach others who listen to us, our children, our students, our professional colleagues, and, yes, even our parents: this will not stand!
Mr. Sterling can sell his team but we will not sell our souls.
