Chevrolet has over a hundred years of heritage from which it can call upon when the right marketing angle presents itself. Like, for instance, when it launches a brand-new Impala for the 2014 model year, as it has just done at the 2012 New York Auto Show. As such, the automaker has brought a mint 1966 Chevrolet Impala SS 427 Convertible to display alongside its new family sedan.

Description of a task
The purpose of this task is to advertise Google Open Source programs among young people and college students.
Participant will create a template of a poster for advertising FreeBSD in the context of Google Code-In and Google Summer of Code programmes. The poster must be ready to be sticked to the university's front door. It must be something very easy to read and simple (simple as in 'Artistic minimalism' not as 'Do this task as quickly as possible').
The poster must be something you would like to see on your own school's wall with advertisements.
Technical proposal
You must create a layout (preferably white, since it always plays nicely with other colors) which will be able to accomodate two logos: GCIN/GSoC logo and FreeBSD logo.
Sample logos
Logo must be easily replacable. Think of your template to be used over next 5 years. We must be able to take the template, be able to copy & paste new logos for 2014 and render it nicely. In other words: your template to be valuable must be reusable.
Mentor of this project is not a judge. Use your own imagination. The poster layout must be practical. Look at previous GCIN/GSoC logos. Take a look at their sizes (they vary). Take a look at colors (they vary too). Come up with something attractive.
Participant must be fluent in GIMP or any other FREE graphics program. She/he must be technically skilled and artistically talented.

I would like to work on this task.
This task has been assigned to Nathan. You have 96 hours to complete this task, good luck!
The work on this task is ready to be reviewed.
One of the mentors has sent this task back for more work. Talk to the mentor(s) assigned to this task to satisfy the requirements needed to complete this task, submit your work again and mark the task as complete once you re-submit your work.
This looks really, really nice!
Do you think (could you check?) if aligning the text in the center would help the readability a bit? In other words: you have '...something1', '...something2', 'something3' in points in the middle. Do you think dots '...' could get aligned e.g.: so that 1st dot of the 1st line is under 1st dot of the 2nd line?
Maybe it would look a bit better?
Would a bit bigger logos help?
If you get back to us with your feedback, this task will get accepted.
About the text:
Originally I had the dots alligned, but I liked it better with the first and last point alligned off the first character of the second point. However I uploaded copy of the images with them alligned, since beauty is in the eye of the beholder.
About the logos:
Definitely a bigger logo, would be better, but unfortuantly I couldn't get my hands on any big logos for gci or gsoc. However I left enough space in the area where the logos go for a much bigger logo, should there be one avalible
The work on this task is ready to be reviewed.
Congratulations, this task has been completed successfully.
Please consider staying with FreeBSD in terms of advertising and

Don't miss out. Stay Informed. Get EcoWatch's Top News of the Day.
Oil prices are soaring again—this time due to uncertainty over the fate of major producers like Russia and Iraq. Expect to pay more at the gas pump and the grocery store in the months ahead, since everything from transportation to manufacturing to our petroleum-intensive agricultural system is a puppet flailing upon the strings of this volatile commodity.
Haven't we been through this drill before? A crisis—usually in the Middle East—causes oil prices to rise. Inflation increases and economic growth shrinks. At which point, we hear renewed calls for energy independence.
This is the message that I was hearing when I visited Barbados last month. I was surprised to see solar panels and water heaters sprouting from government buildings, hospitals, police stations, bus shelters as well as thousands of gaily colored private homes throughout the Caribbean island. I should not have been surprised. Conventional electricity prices in the Caribbean are more than four times what we pay in the U.S., due in part to high shipping costs for the Venezuelan crude that fuels the region's power plants.
For Barbadian's, the cost savings from solar are becoming too obvious to miss. A thermal water heater, which retails for $2,300. U.S., pays for itself in lower electricity bills in less than two years.
It is not just consumers who are noticing what a great deal solar energy is becoming. Industries like the island's only desalinization plant are installing large photovoltaic arrays to help defray their own electricity costs. Solar advocate and advisor to the Barbados government William Hinds told me that there are already enough private investors who want to produce solar in Barbados, that the country would shift to 100 percent solar in less than ten years, even without government subsidies, if the free market were left to its own devices.
The free market, however, is rarely left to its own devices. Even in Barbados, industries are restricted in the amount of solar energy that they can produce, due to admittedly legitimate concerns about the stability of the power grid. There are real technical challenges in integrating intermittent power sources like wind and solar into the grid, while still maintaining the stability of the system that need to be worked out.
In an address marking the United Nations Environment Program's (UNEP) World Environment Day in Bridgetown's Independence Square in June, Barbados Prime Minister Freundel Stuart pledged that the island nation would produce 29 percent of its energy from renewables by the end of the next decade.

One characteristic that all great teams share is that they rise to the occasion when faced with adversity. Trailing in the fourth quarter on the road against a conference rival is not an ideal situation for any football team. Add to this situation the fact that a loss would ruin an undefeated season and probably cost the team a shot at a conference title, the pressure is about as high as it could be. This was the situation the Mustangs found themselves in 1982 when they traveled down I-35 to Waco to battle the Baylor Bears. The Mustangs looked to their field general, Lance McIlhenny to lead them back in what was one of the 90 Greatest Moments in SMU Football History.
A determined Baylor Bear defense used an eight-man line to hold SMU to just 97 yards rushing, the Mustangs' lowest output in four years. The Bears jumped out to a 13-0 lead at halftime while completely shutting down the vaunted Pony Express. SMU was forced to go to the air and Lance McIlhenny responded by throwing three touchdown passes. McIlhenny and company stormed back to take the lead in the third quarter on two touchdown passes, one that went to flanker Jackie Wilson for 78 yards.
However, the lead was short-lived as the Bears responded in the first minute of the fourth quarter to retake the lead 19-14. As time started to run out on the Mustangs, Lance McIlhenny engineered one of the greatest drives in school history. Using a mixture of draws and short passes, McIlhenny marched the Pony Express 75 yards in 13 plays for the winning touchdown. With just under three minutes to play, McIlhenny hit tight end Ricky Bolden for a three yard touchdown. It was the second fourth quarter come-from-behind effort of the year. The Mustangs improved to 5-0 on the season en route to an undefeated season and a trip to the Cotton Bowl.
The composure McIlhenny showed was a characteristic he used throughout his career at SMU. McIlhenny finished as SMU's and the SWC's all-time winningest quarterback with a combined record of 34-5-1. In 1982, he was named to the All-SWC first team and led the SWC in passing efficiency with a 133.0 rating. McIlhenny's leadership during the fourth quarter drive to beat Baylor in 1982 takes its place as one of the 90 Greatest Moments in SMU Football History.

The Poconos in northern Pennsylvania is the perfect setting for a romantic getaway this Valentine's Day. The Poconos, simply put, is beautiful. And after a heavy snowfall, it looks like something right out of a Christmas card. It's easy to see why this is the go-to area for so many people in the region. Even if you live in the south and you're thinking about booking a ski trip, don't overlook the option of visiting the Poconos.
If you're looking for a place for snowboarding or skiing, Shawnee Mountain Ski Area offers a wide range of options for all skill levels.
They have a beginner's area, Little Chief, which is actually a pretty decent area to learn on, whereas some ski areas designate only a tiny, almost flat area for those learning. Shawnee gives beginners a pretty decent hill for practicing. In addition to a magic carpet lift, Little Chief also has a standard chair lift. Shawnee has four other lifts that service the green, blue, and black runs– two doubles, and two quads. The double-double ride was quite long, but a long chair lift ride means a long run.
After 3pm, you'll notice that the slopes became much more crowded, because this is when their discounted nighttime session begins. This can be a good thing or a bad thing, depending on how you look at it. For someone who is still somewhat a beginner, it might not be good because you'll have to work at avoiding all the other people. But, if you're an experienced skier/snowboarder, can handle the colder weather and a crowded mountain doesn't phase you, a nighttime ticket is definitely a great value.
They also have snow tubing, a lodge with a cafeteria, and a fully-stocked shop.

Do you dread this time of year because of your allergies? What can you do naturally to deal with your allergies? Are there ways to prevent allergies?
What is an allergy? It is the body's response by the immune system to a substance that is not normally harmful. In some people, the immune system assumes a nontoxic substance is an invader, causing white blood cells to overreact. There are many different kinds of allergic responses, such as nasal congestion, coughing, wheezing, itching, shortness of breath, headaches, fatigue, and hives.
The kinds of food we eat is highly associated with how our immune system functions. For example, years ago, I had terrible sinus infections that would last several weeks at a time. After studying food and the immune system, I discovered what my body is sensitive to and realized the cause of my sinus infections. It's about trial and error and getting to know your body. Everyone is unique and no one person has the same set of problems or conditions.
It is important to remember that your body did not become ill overnight and so healing is a process and will not occur overnight, either.
I recommend keeping your immune system strong by doing the following:
Eat according to the season
Take probiotics and vitamin C which can boost your immune system.
Avoid dairy which can be a main culprit for congestion.
- Echinacea and goldenseal help boost your immune system and can help aid in washing out pollen and preventing infection.
Colloidal silver also works as an antibiotic and can help prevent and alleviate infections.
Netti-pot (used in India for hundreds of years)--the salt water helps to flush pollen out of the nasal passages.
Quercetin is a plant derived bioflavonoid that stabilizes cells and prevents them from releasing histamine.
Stinging nettle is an herb that treats your allergies the way many OTC medicines do but without the side affects. It also prevents your body from releasing histamines.

U.S. speedskating back on track after year of turmoil
Also, Cho's case was given to the sport's international governing body, and after a June hearing, there is still no resolution or decision regarding Cho's actions or allegations.
Dydek said the team struggled earlier but settled down near the end of the season, even though other issues continued to dog the organization.
Long-track skater Patrick Meek said the situation affected those outside the short-track program, as well.
"I remember distinctly being overseas this past spring, and we were waking up every morning to a new news article about our organization," he said. "It didn't matter that it wasn't about us. It was about our organization and about our brothers and sisters on the short-track side, and that's hard to hear." It was the lack of clear resolutions that bothered athletes most.
"Whether you're in a sports organization or a company, if there is uncertainty at the top, it trickles down," he said. "Luckily we have a guy like Mike Plant in charge now. He's taken over and pushed out some of these guys who weren't in it for the right reasons."
An instrument of change
Plant said it was the steady stream of scandal stories that changed his mind about wading into the mess.
"What hit home for me was it's a sport with an unbelievable legacy," he said, rattling off the names of Olympic icons who've gone on to impressive sports, business and humanitarian accomplishments. "I saw all of that kind of being torn down very quickly."
So he took on the job with one requirement — he would be the board's president. And almost immediately, he began making waves, telling advisory committees and board members that no one was allowed to give the staff direction anymore except him.
"We had teammates treating each other like competitors," he said, noting it took him nine weeks to overhaul the organization. "I told (the staff and board), 'I'll do the blocking and tackling, but I need your support.' It's going to take some resolve and not everyone will like it. I spoke to 60 people in that first week. I wanted to understand their experiences."
The best illustration of the situation Plant inherited was what he saw on a whiteboard at the speedskating headquarters in Kearns.
"I saw 36 complaints, grievances and code of conduct violations," Plant said. "That's dysfunctional; that's disrespectful." The Atlanta Braves vice president, who has spent decades in volunteer administrative roles with USA cycling and the USOC, began dealing with the problems himself while making plans to overhaul the way the body operated. He streamlined the board and made the various committees advisory and not authoritative. Decisions, he said, should be made by staff hired for their expertise, and they, in turn, will be held accountable for those decisions.
In May, the board of directors adopted sweeping new bylaws, and shortly afterward, embattled executive director Mark Greenwald resigned. The changes were aimed at preventing the volunteer board members from interfering with the organization's daily operations.
Jayner and Dudek said the changes have given them hope.
"I think the board has gone a long way with their restructuring," Jayner said. "I think athletes in the future will be much better off."
But not all athletes see much impact from the changes, in part because they're still somewhat separated from the national racing program.
Smith said the most difficult aspect of the way last year's problems were handled was that she was suddenly without the coach who'd helped her find results in the sport she'd dedicated her life to since 2008.

Pair robbed after answering Craigslist car ad in Severn
If you were 17 years old, like Robin Ayala, looking to buy your first car, the ad offering a bargain-priced, sporty coupe would be hard to resist.
"It was a 2005 Honda Accord. On the title it said 89,000 miles... $3,500," recalled Robin as he described the offer.
Normally, such a car may cost you double that amount, so naturally, Ayala convinced his father to go with him to Graybird Court in Severn one night this week to check it out, but the seller claimed his work at a nearby army base was running him late.
"He told me he was a police officer working around base. That's why he was getting out late. He had paper work to give to his sergeant. That's why he was late," Ayala said.
Through texts and phone calls, the supposed seller told Ayala he was sending his cousin over to show them the car.
When the accomplice showed up, he led them to another house a few blocks away and then to a secluded area at the end of Robin Court where they quickly realized that they had been sold a bad bill of goods.
"All I saw was the gun pointed at us and I froze," said Ayala. "Since I had my phone in my hand, I'm pretty sure he wanted money, so I gave him my phone because it was in my hand. I was scared. I was willing to do anything to get out of there alive."
In addition to the phone, the robber took the victims' money---not the $3,500 he may have expected, which would have been the price of the car, but just $36 the two men had between them in their wallets.
Police say it's a relatively cheap lesson that may help others avoid similar scams.
"Research the seller. Contact them constantly. Put the transaction on your terms. If they don't feel easy going where you want to go, it's probably too good to be true," said Justin Mulcahy of the Anne Arundel County Police Department.
Police also say you should never go alone and choose very public places with lots of traffic, good lighting and plenty of witnesses and security cameras around if you're going to make such a purchase.
Last Halloween, a potential buyer in a similar scam in Anne Arundel County was shot and killed after he tried to buy a car that also had been advertised on Craigslist.
Police said one of the suspects is described as a black male in his early 20's, approximately 6-foot to 6-foot-2, 160-180 pounds with shoulder length dreadlock hair and a goatee. At the time of the robbery, the suspect was wearing a "fisherman" hat, black shirt with a gold emblem and light jeans, police said.
Anyone with information about this robbery is asked to contact Anne Arundel Police.

850 mm clay original sculpt.
Beautiful o____o
I usually am not one for unusual, abstract-y designs, but I really like this.
Beautiful, so fluid!
This is really incredible
Congratulations on your Daily Deviation
Congratulations on your Daily Deviation
Beautiful piece ! The movement.. wow!
Beautiful, love the movement impression and flow it has, it is as she is soaring or floating trough the air
Loved everything about this sculpture. It really pops of many I've seen in here. Congrats
Beautiful figure work, Love the concept here...
Congrats on the well deserved DD!
I love the detail!
beautiful! Congrats on the DD!!!
I think she is a tad thin to be called classical. But this almost says to me something the hardships of women, always reaching, searching for equality maybe?
This is really gorgeous. Classical. One can feel the motion. Stereotomy divine.
its pretty rough for such a big sculpture. is the effect wished? besides this, wonderful done.
I love the overall impression, but it lacks texture to make it look so life like. `still I love how it is executed.
very nice!
wonderful, i love the details in the body and background, great job!
Nice and realistic..like an Art Noveau item to me. Skills you have plenty in sculpting..now finding a way to make it real Art..if you seek to. Making what is your own expressive and personnel style. It sounds as blasé critique my part, but it isn't at all. I'm seeking a life time to find my way without even reaching a tip of view where I have to be to escape art..to Art. Skills doesn't mean to much any more this days..even knowing how hard it is to reach a level like yours. Spending time in your crafts, failing and trying again..and again.and..You know what I mean.
Good luck for your creative future..hopefully you can find a way faster then me to a break trough to the "Art"world.

His is really amazing.
WOW really good done!
wow extremely well-done friend I liked the striking pose her and the way you composed her is fantastic ,congrats
great a work of art...very nice...
This is spectacular. I love the motion. My favorite is the figure's right hand and the way it seems to melt into the etherous surface around it. The whole piece is just beautiful.
No lie. This is one of the greatest sculptures i've seen in a really really long time. You're extremely skilled.
oooh, that hand....
wow that's gorgeous!
this is amazing too reminds me of michelangelo's painting in the sistine chapel...very beautiful...i really love the work around the figure makes it have a lot more movement or something
Great work!
Very organic and and fluid. Beautiful
Very organic and and fluid. Beautiful
This is very well done. I also love the hand tat seems to be part of the...is it cloth? I thought it looked a bit like a cloud, like she is part of and emerging from a cloud. No matter...this is really very beautiful to look at, and will find a home in my faves(not that that is anything grand)! I admire your skill.
Wow, this is absolutely--breathtaking! I love how her arm and hand merge with the cloth, how the motion is so unified and fluid, this perfect, poised yearning.. the shape of the fingers is almost casual, reverent, as if this person wants something too divine, too fragile to touch. Another brilliant peice!
Thankyou so much..
I am often too busy to visit this site much but i love it when people 'Get It'.........
I am often too busy to visit this site much but i love it when people 'Get It'.........
You'd be amazed how often that happens.. alot of people just don't express what they feel. Hell, I do it all the time--you're just lucky I didn't happen to be extremely lazy/exhausted when I saw this!
for a gorgeous, overlooked sculpture
You are very talented! Yet another
Thanks very much.
You have a most beautiful face.
I would love to sculpt such elegance and style.

Thank you for such a wonderful compliment!

Desert Islands
This is similar to musical chairs but played with pieces of paper placed on the floor. Ideally each piece of paper is cut and painted to resemble a tropical island. There should be one less piece of paper than the number of children playing. When the music stops the children have to stand on a free island with no more than one child island.
The child not standing on an island is out but can choose a piece of fruit form a 'tropical' basket to eat whilst the game continues.

I saw a tweet from someone yesterday that said, "By the time you turn 30, you should have at least one piece of original art in your home." I don't know if that's a hard and fast rule, but at some point, you'll want to start using art — original or otherwise — to enhance your personal space.
If you're just starting to collect art, or are thinking of collecting, or have been collecting art but need a bit of a refresher, you're in luck. This Saturday, from 10:00 to 11:00, West Elm and 20×200, the online gallery of affordable art, are teaming up to teach the fine art (get it?) of art collecting.
Learn how to build a collection, ways to display art, and "tips for integrating art into your everyday life". I'm not quite sure what's meant by that last part — maybe it's about having art in your car, or in your cube at the office? Either way, you're sure to learn something new.
These West Elm/20×200 are happening at both West Elms in Massachusetts, in Boston and Burlington.

Till yesterday, wifi connections from my windows 8 PC were working fine. Today, no wifi devices are getting listed.
While trying to troubleshoot this, I've been told that wifi can be turned on from -> Settings -> Change PC Settings -> Wireless:
But I see only a blank screen here:
According to few sources on the web, I'm supposed to see atleast two options over here: (Image from Web below)
But I don't see these two options. What could I be missing?
Another suggestion was to ensure wifi is turned on using a hardware button or function key on the (Compaq 6710b) Laptop I have. But the laptop does not seem to have either of these.

Love live music but hate the lines, bar tabs and tall people standing directly in front of your favorite singer? Then opt for a concert venue that's a little more comfortable: your neighbor's home. From comedians in the shower to punk acts in the basement, the intimate atmosphere makes house concerts a welcome trend — and unlike any local music club.
Without the normal barroom distractions, it's even better for the artists, suggests Joel Elvery, who has been hosting the Mechanic Street House Concerts with his wife, Lynn Phares, since they moved here from Washington, D.C., in 2007. "When they know someone is listening to them, they play better," he says.
With residents greeting you at the door with snacks and a bring-your-own-booze policy, you'll feel more like you're visiting a friend than going to a stranger's house. Step inside a few venues with us.

"We ask everyone to turn off their cellphones, so you could hear a pin drop." Coming up: Watch Mramor and singer-songwriter Kara Kaufmann perform July 11 at 8 p.m.
Mechanic Street House Concerts

Duos and trios perform blues, Americana and sometimes jazz in front of a seated crowd. "Two months before Newport Folk Festival, Brown Bird played in our living room," Elvery says.

That's right, the spacious bathroom features jokesters doing everything but singing in the shower.

NBC Incorporating More "Green Storylines"
When we see a TV character sip on a Coke can or pull a Motorola phone out of his pocket, we're watching something called "product placement." The TV stations have sold screen-space to product manufacturers in hopes that we, the watchers, will notice the products in close connection with characters we admire and run out and buy things from Coke and Motorola.
"Behavior placement," however, is a little more subtle. It's the practice of infusing on-screen stories with actions that audiences might notice and consider and eventually adopt.

AMBOY — A daylong search in the dense woods of the Gifford Pinchot National Forest on Saturday failed to turn up any trace of a 19-year-old Vancouver woman who left her campground on Sunday, June 9, and never returned.
The search for Maureen Kelly was called off about 6 p.m. Saturday after about 75 volunteers from 17 search and rescue teams combed a four square mile search area in rugged terrain near Canyon Creek. Communications were coordinated by the Communications Unit from Yacolt Fire District 13.
"We have utilized very professional search and rescue personnel during these operations," said Skamania County Undersheriff Dave Cox. "They are very well trained and we rely heavily on their expertise to search very difficult terrains in various weather conditions. For us to not be able to locate Ms. Kelly is very frustrating to everyone involved," Cox said.
One searcher received an ankle injury, and one of the search K-9's split one of its paws.
"We are very fortunate that we did not receive any more injuries today, based upon the terrain we asked our search personnel to work in," Cox said. The area was rough and steep with some areas covered in thick underbrush and wet moss, he said.
Maureen Kelly was last seen about 5 p.m. on June 9 when she left the Canyon Creek Campground on a "spiritual quest." She left on foot and naked, wearing only a fanny pack containing a compass and a knife.
A friend reported Kelly missing just after midnight Monday. Search crews looked for the woman Monday and Tuesday before authorities suspended the search at 8 p.m. Tuesday.
At about 8 a.m. Saturday, the search resumed with teams from Oregon and Washington state.
"We're assuming she's up there and moving around," Cox said in the early hours of the search.
The efforts included ground searches, including some K-9 teams, and vehicle patrols along forest roads, Cox said.
Police determined Kelly crossed Canyon Creek and headed north toward a forest service road. They don't know where she went from there, Cox said.
Since Kelly had few things with her when she left the campground, she's not likely to leave behind many clues, Cox said. And since she was barefoot, her footprints aren't as heavy as they would be with shoes, he said.
"It's gonna be an issue of looking for a needle in a haystack," Cox said.
Even though the official ground search was halted earlier this week, Cox said people have continued to look for Kelly.
Deputies will routinely continue to patrol the area and detectives will continue to investigate any tips or leads that may develop, Cox said.
"As credible information is obtained in the coming weeks, it will be evaluated and options discussed at that point," he said. The public is encouraged to call the Skamania County Sheriff's Office if they have any information related to Kelly's whereabouts. The phone number is 509-427-9490.
In addition, Cox said Kelly's friends and family members have been looking for the woman and have created a Facebook page, http://www.facebook.com/FindAnuKelly.

Land sales may reach record NT$140 bil. this year: DTZ
The China Post news staff
September 13, 2012, 11:59 am TWN
Total land sales in Taiwan this year may hit NT$140 billion, the highest ever, said real estate advisor DTZ yesterday.
During a forum yesterday, DTZ General Manager Yen Ping-li said that land transactions over the previous three quarters have totaled NT$96.7 billion. With the monetary value expected to surpass NT$30 billion in the fourth quarter, the total for this year is expected to reach NT$140 billion, a historic high, he said.
As for commercial properties, Yen said transactions will not be as robust due to limited properties put up for sale.
For the first three quarters, commercial property sales reached NT$55.7 billion, with the figure for the whole year estimated to be NT$90 billion, he said.
Land sales were hot in most parts of Taiwan, he said, citing the NT$1.305 million per ping unit price offered by Kao Hsing Chang Iron and Steel Corp. for a 111-ping block of land in front of the 85 Building in Kaohsiung. The sale is set to happen on Oct. 5. Each ping is 3.3 square meters.
Meanwhile, the 1,354-ping parking lot behind Breeze Center in Taipei is offered for a total value of NT$5.78 billion, translating into NT$4.3 million a ping, with 30 groups of buyers expressing interest in the sale. The final transaction value may be record-breaking.
"Prices haven't gone down a bit, even after the imposition of the luxury tax that took effect on June 1 of last year, because of the overabundant capital in the market," Yen said.

TORONTO - The Toronto Maple Leafs have ended their contract dispute with Cody Franson.
A source says the defenceman agreed to terms on a one-year deal.
Franson, 26, had four goals and 25 assists during a career year in 2013. He's expected to play top-four minutes this season.
"Franny's back!" centre Nazem Kadri wrote on his Twitter account.
His signing does put the Leafs in a crunch against the salary cap, especially considering right-winger David Clarkson is suspended for the first 10 games of the regular season.

Dread going to the doctor, and hate needles even more? Take heart, there is hope on the horizon in the form of a new painless flu vaccine patch that can easily be self-administered at home.
According to tests involving 100 volunteers from the Atlanta area. Researchers from the Georgia Institute of Technology, Emory University and the CDC found that the participants were easily able to apply the vaccine patches, which contain 50 microscopic needles ("approximately as tall and thick as a few hairs" to their forearms. When pressed into place, the vaccine painlessly spreads into the outer layers of the skin "prompting immune reactions from the body."
"Our dream is that each year there would be flu vaccine patches available in stores or sent by the mail for people to self-administer," stated Mark Prausnitz, a Regents professor (and patent expert) at the Georgia Institute of Technology School of Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering.
"People could take them home and apply them to the whole family."
As a result, experts hope that not only would this increase the number of people being vaccinated, but also reduce healthcare costs by "relieving the burden on healthcare professions required to give millions of vaccinations each year."
To learn more, readers can read the study report which was published online in the February 11, 2014 edition of the journal Vaccine.
Note: The study was also supported by the National Institutes of Health

Broadway Global shares exclusive from Actor Lawrence Leritz and it is sure to inspire you to see HBO's The Normal Heart. Filming "The Normal Heart was an intense and profound experience. They somewhat expanded the stage play for the HBO film, adding some new characters and scenes. I was chosen by director Ryan Murphy (Glee) as an original GMHC Volunteer.
My first day on set was with all the main actors, Julia Roberts, Joe Mantello, Jim Parsons and my friend Mark Ruffalo, who generously welcomed me. The scene was about the first meeting to organize what became the GMHC. I felt so honored to be there. As the scene rehearsal progressed, I knew I was l part of something very important. You could feel the energy of complete commitment from all of the actors. And it was kind of fun to be screaming at other actors in the scene!
My inspiration that day came from an event I had produced, called The Day Of Compassion, which became the largest one day event in television history. The event had over 200 shows on the air. It honored those who were HIV+, had AIDS and to acknowledged those who already had died. It was right before the 'cocktail' was announced. It felt like a hopeless time. I was also a spokesperson on various talk shows, like Rosie O'Donnell and Maury. This experience totally connected with me on set. The idea of being willing to speak up, even when everything seemed dire.
The second scene I shot, which was at a disco, proved to be an incredible day. One of my favorite days on set ever. The scene was about the first fundraising attempt for the newly formed GMHC. There was such a beautiful feeling of love and brotherhood among everyone there. It was a very spiritual energy. We were all paired with various dance partners. I was pair with a young man named Chris, who was about 21 years old. And straight. I was interested in seeing how he would react to everything. The Normal Heart's talented cinematographer, Danny Moder (Julia Robert's husband) meticulously filmed a featured disco dance number with me and my partner. We went all out, doing wild and fun early 80's disco dancing. Danny said he loved the scene when it was finished. Then the most amazing thing happened. It just happened to be the same day of the awaited announcement of The Supreme Court case, Windsor vs.The United States, which ruled that day that a ban on federal benefits for gay couples, enacted under the Defense of Marriage Act, was unconstitutional. Larry Kramer, The Normal Heart's author, just happened to be there. As the news hit, Larry took the microphone and announced "We Won!" The whole set erupted into screams, hoots and cheers. No more needed to be said by Larry. And my dance partner cheered the loudest. It was profound moment realizing how far the entire movement had progressed since the early 80's. The rest of the day, we all seemed to be floating on air. A rare experience on set.
Although about 95% of what I filmed was edited out, I'm still there in the first scene. I was so deeply moved watching the finished film on Memorial Day weekend, I didn't care. To my surprise, approximately 200 people contacted me the next day. I even further realized how important this film was to so many.
One funny moment. On my final day of filming in the Village, we were given a walkaway lunch, which means you're on your own. I wasn't very hungry, so I went to a tiny pizza place, around the corner from set. As I sat down with my slice, Jim Parsons came in and joined me. There were only three stools in the entire place. We enjoyed chatting about the film. And I was just thinking of him as another actor. I happened to glance up at the sole worker behind the counter. His eyes we bugging out of his head with a huge smile. He was thrilled to have Jim Parsons in his tiny pizzeria. And I was also thrilled to have had such a spiritually rich experience filming The Normal Heart.
Did this movie hit to close to home for those who were hit by aids virus… friends and lovers.. ?
"Yes, so many of my friends and fellow artists died early on. It was devastating." Actor Lawrence Leritz.
If it hits that close to home why should we re-live this through a movie or the play.. ?
"It is such a great teaching tool for the younger generations, who have never experience this period of the AIDS epidemic." Actor Lawrence Leritz.
Will it still help funding today as we have many on waiting list for HIV meds.. ?
"I hope so. The Normal Heart certainly raises consciousness." Actor Lawrence Leritz.
Are these AIDS funding leaders looked on as heroes in America for the GLBT community?
"Definitely. They were the first to go past their own fears and pain to speak up for the entire community." Actor Lawrence Leritz.
Broadway Global and Theatre Chat thank Actor Lawrence Leritz for sharing his personal journey with The Normal Heart. Please support regional local productions of the pay and watch the HBO movie its life changing! Sometimes in life we are destined to sit right next to our next story, Lawrence Leritz at The 70th Annual Theatre World Awards, which we will share, the epic ceremony night on our next Broadway Global exclusive.

Check out how this woman played herself while dancing to Beyonce's Single Ladies with a crazy clown mask on. The camera belongs to her so apparently she put aside the embarrassment and figured she'd uploaded it to Youtube so at least we could get a laugh from it.
It's a dance called the Liberian Whop and this kid is great at it!
Affion Crockett does it again! This is hilarious and really well done.
A healthy serving of amazing and a side of random.
This portion of the interview that ABC News reporter Terry Moran did with Barack on Monday was supposed to be off record but what he said about Kanye has surfaced. The audio is in this Youtube clip, the transcription is just below it and it is absolutely hilarious.
Q: Were your girls as hacked off as mine were that Kanye gave Taylor Swift the Joe Wilson treatment?
Obama: I thought that was really inappropriate. You know it was like she's getting an award — why are you butting in? I, I hear you — I agree with you.
Q: So does that count as the first question?
Obama: The young lady seems like a perfectly nice person. She's getting her award. What's he doing up there? He's a jackass. (Laughter) No, now — this — all this stuff — I'm assuming all this stuff. Where's the pool? Come on guys. Cut the president some slack. I got a lot of other stuff on my plate. Yeah. Cause I remember last time it was the fly thing. Now that was the highlight of (trails off)
Q: No that worked out well for you. You were a ninja.
Obama: Except PETA… (laughter)
Ben Stiller and Ryan Seacrest discussing twitter. By the way, mine is @iamQuddus
Someone just sent me this link with no info about the artist and it really doesn't matter cause this video is absolutely crazy. It features a lot of girls fighting, strange cats and bad horror movie make up. BRACE YOURSELF FOR MADNESS!
This propaganda perpetrator normally just makes me want to throw my shoe at the TV but I actually got a laugh out of this reaction to being called out in the new Jay-Z song Off That
This is the creepiest cat I've ever seen!
Great story behind this- courtesy of Shake from 2dopeboyz.com:
I'm sure it's well known, but I'm a pretty big fan of Mr. Bobby Ray. And I think it's safe to say that 94% of the dopeboyz/girlz that frequent the site are as well. It's also well known that I despise Atlantic Records. So with that said, I put together a collection of (tagless) joints that have leaked since the time I very first heard dude in hopes that it can spread around the internets and hopefully wake those dinosaurs up. Word is (via Wendy Day & Amir's little convo awhile back) they really like B.o.B but are trying to force him into a 360 deal. And if he doesn't conform, they are gonna shelve him. I mean, imagine if this was actually his debut album? Sheeiiiit… I vote we call/email/run-up-on Atlantic and tell them to stop fucking around.

Stream the latest single from M.I.A., "XXXO," produced by Blaqstarr and Rusko. This comes from the new album, titled /\/\/\Y/\, out July 13th.
[kml_flashembed movie="http://www.youtube.com/v/xbDc71Rwih8" width="550" height="445" allowfullscreen="true" fvars="fs=1" /]
Check out the latest video from Blaqstarr of the Mad Decent/Diplo/M.I.A./Rye Rye family: "Oh My Darling."
Be Warned: This video contains graphic, violent imagery.
M.I.A. is the latest artist to send the internet into a full-blown frenzy with a video. The short film by French director Romain Garvas, which has been pulled from YouTube and labeled as NSFW elsewhere, is set to the music of M.I.A.'s "Born Free."
News has been leaking about the new M.I.A. album to come later this year. We share her frustration regarding interweb connections, so we absolutely love this story: M.I.A. wrote a song about Verizon Customer Service's incompetence, and she even got some Philipino Verizon employees to sing backup on the track, perfectly titled "I'm Down Like Your Internet Connection".
No guarantee that this song will be on the new album, but for now, take this MP3 to go along with the video, via MFR.

College Hockey:Badgers Pummel Huskies
#1 Wisconsin Responds to Upset in Resounding Fashion
MADISON, Wis. — After a shocking 4-2 loss to Michigan Tech Friday, No. 1 Wisconsin responded exactly how head coach Mike Eaves was hoping they would, posting a 7-0 drubbing in a penalty-laden affair at the Kohl Center.
From the get-go, it was clear that the Badgers, who had been outworked the night before, were not about to make the same mistake twice.
"I thought we got outworked," Tech head coach Jaime Russell. "It was the polar opposite of last night when our penalty outworked their power play."
Wisconsin didn't allow a Husky shot until more than 13 minutes into the game, jumping out to a 3-0 lead over that span, and never looked back.
It took the Badgers just six minutes to get on the scoreboard as senior captain Adam Burish lit the fire under his team with a shorthanded goal.
"It was a great response by these young men tonight, led by their captain who goes out and a shorthanded goal right away" head coach Mike Eaves said.
Joe Pavelski brought the puck into the zone for UW, sent a backhand pass towards the slot that found the stick of Burish. The center slipped the puck under Michael-Lee Teslak's leg for a 1-0 lead.
It was just the first blunder of the night for Teslak who, after making 31 saves in Friday night's win, was pulled after less than 12 minutes of action Saturday.
Robbie Earl doubled the lead for the Badgers less than three minutes later as Michigan Tech defenseman John Scott could not control the puck on a UW power play.
"You've got to reach that level where you respect your opponent and come out and play every night, especially in this league where any team can beat any team," Earl said.
Earl took advantage of the turnover in the Wisconsin zone by throwing the puck on net. Teslak got a leg pad on it, but it found its way into the goal.
Thanks to a five-minute major penalty and disqualification of Tech's Jake Wilkens midway through the period, Jake Dowell increased the UW lead to 3-0 at 11:47.
After Dowell skated the puck in from Teslak's left, he made an initial save, but Dowell poked the puck through his legs and ended Teslak's night.
"I thought he deserved the opportunity to get his first back-to-back starts," Russell said. "I don't think Mike's ready to play back-to-back games as a freshman goalie."
The Huskies finally got a shot on Wisconsin netminder Brian Elliott at 13:37, just one of four shots in the opening 20 minutes. The period also saw 33 minutes worth of penalties.
Twenty more minutes were assessed in the second, as the Badgers tacked on one more goal.
Kyle Klubertanz got his second tally in as many weekends and second of the year with a one-timer from the point on a UW power play to send the team into the locker room with a 4-0 lead.
After going 0-for-8 on the man-advantage Friday night, the Badgers were 3-for-9 Saturday.
"A lot of it had to do with our power play getting back on track," Klubertanz said. "Things were clicking out there."
The chippy play climaxed in the third period as the teams finished with a combined 151 penalty minutes with four players were disqualified for fighting. It seemed to stem from a play at the end of Friday's game.
Amidst the dust of 98 third-period penalty minutes, the Badgers piled it on over the final period as Earl and Klubertanz each picked up their second goals of the evening and rookie Jack Skille snapped off his sixth of the year.
"I think that the guys, after last night's game, they had extra reasons to stay focused and put an exclamation mark at the end of the game," Eaves said.
Klubertanz finished the night with two goals and two assists.
Lost in the game was a second straight Saturday shutout for Elliott who, though he only had to make 17 saves, came up with a few big ones.
Nolan finished with 25 saves in more than 48 minutes of relief work.
The win salvaged two points for Wisconsin and kept it six points ahead of Minnesota atop the WCHA standings.
"[Last night] bothered me all day," Burish said. "Slipping up like that left a sour taste in my mouth and it still does a little bit. But we've got some time off and hopefully I can blow it off here."
While Wisconsin gets a break from WCHA action, Michigan Tech hosts Minnesota State for a league series next weekend.

Even the biggest producers can get a little flustered when speaking in public. Michael Bay was scheduled to speak during Samsung's press event at CES 2014. During the interview there was a minor issue when the teleprompter they were using to cue onstage presenters went out. Bay quickly tried to improvise his answer on his own and he completely lost his train of thought. Instead of trying to continue, he just turned around and quietly walked off stage.

We discussed Friday how Oakland Raiders offensive coordinator Greg Olson called his wide-receiver corps a "catch by committee" group. Although eight Raiders players caught a pass against the Indianapolis Colts Sunday, it was Rod Streater and Denarius Moore doing nearly all of the work from the WR crew, catching five passes each; Jacoby Ford and Brice Butler were the only other WRs in the mix with one catch each. In the end, that approach worked just fine for Terrelle Pryor, who completed 19 of 29 passes for 217 yards, 1 TD and 2 INTs. He also burned up the Colts with his legs for 112 rushing yards on 13 rushes.

Mass. Company's Spinning Flywheels to Store, Pace Electric Energy and Make Grid Greener
By Jay Lindsay on September 20, 2009
Spinning flywheels have been used for centuries for jobs from making pottery to running steam engines. Now the ancient tool has been given a new job by a Massachusetts company: smooth out the electricity flow, and do it fast and clean.
Beacon Power's flywheels — each weighing one ton, levitating in a sealed chamber and spinning up to 16,000 times per minute — will make the electric grid more efficient and green, the company says. It's being given a chance to prove it: the U.S. Department of Energy has granted Beacon a $43 million conditional loan guarantee to construct a 20-megawatt flywheel plant in upstate New York.
"We are very excited about this technology and this company," said Matt Rogers, a senior adviser to the Secretary of Energy. "It's a lower (carbon dioxide) impact, much faster response for a growing market need, and so we get pretty excited about that."

- Price: $500
- Official Site: Sony.com
- Specs: Blu-ray 2.0 spec; 7.1 channel Dolby TrueHD; 24p True Cinema Output
- Company: Sony
It was only a matter of time before a Blu-ray player would come along that was really, truly blue in color. Not only is the Sony BDP-S550 blue, but it also actually backs up the striking color and slim body with cinema quality imaging from its 24p True Cinema output and a digital master audio system for HD.
The Sony BDP-S550 is priced reasonably at $500 and it's widely available. Though it's far from a limited edition, its quality in its presentation may knock the PS3 off the block as the raining king of Blu-ray. It meets the latest Blu-ray model requirements with Blu-ray 2.0 spec support and features both digital and analog audio options.
Scheduled for release in fall 2008, the Sony BDP-S550 Blu-ray player may outlast its initial fanfare and sustain it for at least five years. Fueled by a rather middle-of-the-road price compared to stiff competition from Blu-ray models where price is hardly a concern, relative portability with its slim design and features that are of the utmost cinema quality, this middle-market player will quite possibly be a viable alternative to the Blu-ray player embedded in the PS3.
