A sample of the molecules featured during this past quarter are included below:
January, 2003 -- Think about how convenient it is to be able to eat. Each one of your ten trillion cells requires a constant supply of nourishment. But we don't have to worry about this--we merely eat our dinner and our body does the rest. The food is digested and the useful pieces are delivered to cells throughout the body, using the bloodstream as the delivery system. Delivery of water-soluble molecules, like sugar, is easy. They float in the watery bloodstream and are picked up by cells along the way. Other important nutrients, however, are not soluble in water, so special carriers must be made to chaperone them to hungry cells.
Serum albumin, shown in PDB entry 1e7i, is the carrier of fatty acids in the blood. Fatty acids are essential for two major things in your body. They are the building blocks for lipids, which form all of the membranes around and inside cells. They are also rich sources of energy, and may be broken down inside cells to form ATP. Thus, your body maintains a storehouse of fatty acids, stored as fat. When your body needs energy or needs building materials, fat cells release fatty acids into the blood. There, they are picked up by serum albumin and delivered to distant parts of the body.

Potassium Channels: Open and Shut
February, 2003 -- All living cells are surrounded by a membrane that separates the watery world inside from the environment outside. Membranes are effective barriers for small ions (as well as for large molecules like proteins and DNA), providing a novel opportunity: differences in ion levels may be used for rapid signaling. For instance, a cell can raise the level of potassium ions inside it. Then, at a moment's notice, potassium can be released through channels in the membrane, creating a large change in the potassium level that will be felt throughout the cell. This process is used in all types of cells - bacteria, plants and animals. Two common examples of ion channels at work are seen in muscle contraction (which is started by the release of calcium ions), and nerve signaling (which involves a complex flow of sodium and potassium ions).
When you smell a flower and know that it is a rose, or touch a hot object and immediately pull your hand away, nerves from your nose and hands use the release of ions to send signals to your brain and relay back the appropriate response. Nerve cells ready themselves for sending a signal by concentrating potassium ions inside and selectively pumping sodium ions out. This creates a difference in electrical potential across the cell membrane. To send a signal, sodium channels along the nerve open, allowing sodium to enter and reducing the voltage across the membrane. Potassium channels then open, letting the potassium ions out and re-establishing the original voltage. Other channels and pumps later reset the distribution of sodium and potassium ions inside and outside the cell. By clever design, both of these channels are sensitive to the voltage across the membrane, opening when the voltage changes. So, when the channels are opened at one end of a nerve cell, the flow of ions there instantly triggers channels further down the membrane to open. The result is a wave of channels opening that rushes down the nerve cell, carrying the nerve signal to the end.

lac Repressor: Blocking DNA
March, 2003 -- DNA is filled with information. Our own DNA contains the instructions for building tens of thousands of different proteins and RNA, which perform all the different functions that keep us alive. As discovered by Watson and Crick fifty years ago, this genetic information is stored in the sequence of adenine, thymine, cytosine and guanine bases in the DNA. Their model of the DNA double helix showed how the information is read by separating the two strands of DNA and then pairing the exposed surfaces of the bases with appropriate partners, such that adenine always pairs with thymine and cytosine pairs with guanine.
The genetic information encoded in the DNA strand is far from being the whole story. A simple set of protein blueprints would hardly be useful, because each of our cells would make all of the 30,000 proteins continually. But brain cells don't need to make hemoglobin, and red blood cells don't need to make acetylcholine receptors. Each cell needs to be able to control the construction of its proteins so that it only builds the proteins needed for its own function. To solve this problem, our DNA also contains a lot of regulatory information that specifies when and where each protein should be made. Unlike the genetic information, this regulatory information is read without unwinding the DNA double helix. Instead, an army of regulatory proteins--including the lac repressor-- feels along the surface of the DNA double helix, reading the parts of the bases that are exposed and looking for the appropriate instructions. Some of these proteins, when they find the appropriate instructions, bind to DNA and block the production of proteins that are encoded in the local area. Other regulators enhance the production of proteins, coaxing RNA polymerase to begin its function of transcribing messenger RNA. The nucleus is a flurry of these regulatory proteins, as they control the production of proteins that are currently needed and block synthesis of proteins that are not.

Nov. 14, 2002
It had been theorized entering Washington's Nov. 9 game that the Huskies didn't lack talent, but simply confidence. In the first quarter, with the game at 10-10, sophomore cornerback Derrick Johnson gave UW the confidence boost it needed when he stepped in front of OSU receiver James Newson and picked off a pass from the Beavers' Derek Anderson, returning it 42 yards to give Washington a lead it would never relinquish. Johnson added a second pick later in the game, reminding Husky fans of the player who, as a true freshman in 2000, started opposite Omare Lowe at cornerback in the Rose Bowl, and helped the Huskies stifle Drew Brees and the potent Purdue passing game. After earning Freshman All-American honors from The Sporting News, Johnson suffered a knee injury in spring ball and was forced to sit out all of 2001, helpless as opponents posted record numbers through the air against the Huskies' banged-up secondary. Now back on the field, Johnson is making an impact in all aspects of the game, ranking fourth on the team in tackles with 43, and grabbing a team-leading three interceptions. Most importantly, though, he's helping to restore the confidence of Husky fans and players alike, just in time for Washington's crucial season-ending stretch of games against Northwest opponents.
GoHuskies.com: What's it like to be winning again?
Derrick Johnson: "It feels wonderful to win. We're coming off 26 winning seasons. I'm not used to losing, and neither are rest of the players and coaches, or Husky fans for that matter. It's exciting to get another win."
GH: How did it feel to be named the Pac-10's Defensive Player of the Week after the OSU game?
Johnson: "There are a lot of great players in this league, so to be chosen as one of the Pac-10 Players of the Week is quite an honor."
GH: You've been receiving a lot more attention in the press since last Saturday.
Johnson: "Yeah, I really didn't expect much; I'm pretty low key. I just want to go out there and play well, to just be one of those guys who contributes. I'm just grateful and excited."
GH: Tell me a little bit about that first interception; what happened?
Johnson: "It was man-to-man coverage and I saw the receiver's eyes get big, so I turned around and looked. I knew he was going to try to go get the ball, so I tried to - and was able to - get it first."
GH: On that second interception I noticed you had your eyes on the quarterback, and then dropped off when you saw him look toward your side of the field. Were you playing possum a little bit, trying to bait him to throw it your way?
Johnson: "He scrambled right and I didn't think he could throw from that angle to my receiver, so I thought he was going to hit another receiver and I could at least take a good angle to make the tackle. When the quarterback looked back, though, he tried to throw across the field. I was excited. I thought, 'Yes! I can't believe he's throwing it!' Then I went and grabbed it."
GH: It must have seemed like it took forever for that ball to get to you.
Johnson: "It did. I just kept thinking, 'Oh, this is beautiful.'"
GH: Did you know you would take it to 'the house?'
Johnson: "I looked around at first, and then I knew it was all end zone. I knew with my speed, I was going to get in there."
GH: When you were running toward the end zone, were you thinking of what celebration dance you were going to do, and which one do you think is the best?
Johnson: "Having your own is the best, but I think [former Atlanta Falcons tailback] Jamal Anderson's "Dirty Bird" was the best. There's no particular dance I do, all of them are good."
GH: Will Husky fans ever be treated to "The DJ?"
Johnson: "I don't think it would get that far. As you saw last week, I was tackled and pummeled by all of my teammates in less than two seconds! I'll celebrate with those guys."
GH: Was it a bit of a role reversal when you got to the end zone? Instead of you hitting someone, everyone on your team hit you!
Johnson: "I just got hammered! It was just like hitting drills in practice. It just felt so good to score, though, that it didn't hurt."
GH: If you ever score again, are you going to turn around and get ready to take all those shots, or are you going to just curl up on the ground and protect yourself?
Johnson: (laughs) "I'll probably curl up and get hit again. They're going to be running pretty good and I'm going to be so excited I'll probably just fall over with them, laugh, and enjoy the moment."
GH: This weekend you're going to Autzen, one of the loudest stadiums in the Pac-10. How do you prepare for something like that?
Johnson: "Going to Michigan was good preparation. You just have to work hard and focus. You can't make mistakes in an environment like that. We're going to practice extra hard and we'll see what happens."
GH: You've been pounding the pizza while we've been talking. Why do you think it is that college kids eat so much pizza pie?
Johnson: "It's easy, it's quick, it's good, and I guess it's convenient!"
GH: The way you say that, it sounds like you eat a lot of this stuff. What are your favorite toppings?
Johnson: "My diet consists of fast food, Top Ramen, macaroni and cheese, and what they serve at the crewhouse. I'll pretty much eat anything."
GH: Top Ramen, eh? Do you normally go for chicken, beef, or Oriental flavor?
Johnson: "I'm more of a chicken fan."
GH: Top Ramen's not that filling, and I know football players have to eat a lot since you're expending so much energy. How many packs of it do you eat at a time?
Johnson: "We've got about 20 packs in the cupboard right now, so between me Jafar [Williams], Jimmy Newell, and James Sims, we eat a lot of Top Ramen."

Starbucks, which recently found itself in the middle of a UK tax row, reports strong sales in the US as it eyes Asian expansion.
14:38, UK, Friday 25 January 2013
Starbucks, which has been criticised for not paying enough corporation tax in the UK, has reported better than expected sales in the US and increasing growth in Asia.
The coffee chain saw net earnings, which is one way of measuring profits, hit $432.2m (£268m) in the three months to the end of December - up 14% on a year earlier.
Customers in the US, its top market, spent more than expected during the economically turbulent winter holiday season.
Overall revenue jumped almost 11% to $3.8bn (£2.48bn) during the quarter, which is the best sales period for Starbucks.
It also reported stronger-than-expected sales in Asia despite economic uncertainty worldwide, offsetting unexpected costs including the bill for cleaning up after Superstorm Sandy.
Sales at established shops were up 11% in the China/Asia Pacific region.
Global sales at stores open at least 13 months were up 6%, however, Starbucks' Americas business contributed 75% of total revenue for the fiscal year that ended September 30.
Starbucks also said it sold more than 150,000 of its domestic coffee machines, most of them through specialty retailers.
Executives said the machine will continue to be a major revenue driver in the coming months and years.
However, the chain's bosses joined industry peers in adopting a cautious stance for the new year, largely because of concerns that this month's US payroll tax increase could depress consumer spending.
The US and Asian boost comes as sales were down by 1% in Europe, the Middle East and Africa.
Last November, Starbucks in Britain found itself in the middle of a tax avoidance row and a number of customers started to boycott the brand over its transfer pricing to other units abroad.
The angry backlash was prompted by the revelation that Starbucks paid only £8.6m UK corporation tax in the past 13 years, despite sales of £3.1bn in the country, as a top executive was grilled by MPs over so-called tranfer pricing.
It has since said it expects to pay around £10m in UK corporation tax for each of the next two years - but critics slammed it as a donation and HM Revenue and Customs reacted negatively to the gesture.

Milford police are asking for the public's help after an attempted armed robbery occurred June 10 at the Sunoco gas station on Milford-Harrington Highway.
At about 9:15 p.m. on Monday, a 53-year-old and a 17-year-old victim were approached by an unknown white man in the parking lot of the gas station at 350 Milford-Harrington Highway. The suspect grabbed the 17-year-old and held a knife to the victim's throat while demanding money from the 53-year-old victim, according to Milford Police Department spokesman Detective Dwight Young.
Young said the 17-year-old was knocked to the ground by the suspect when the older victim tried to intervene. The 53-year-old was also knocked to the ground by the armed suspect.
The unidentified white man then fled on foot without getting any money or property from the victims.
Both victims refused medical treatment.
The suspect is described as being about 6-feet tall, of thick build weighing about 200 to 225 pounds and was wearing dark-colored clothing at the time of the incident.

eVGA GeForce GTX 280 HC16 Hydro Copper review -
14 - - Game Performance: Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon: Advanced Warfighter 2
Gaming: Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon: Advanced Warfighter 2
Don't mistake the PC version for being a port of the Xbox 360 game. The PC version has larger and different levels than those featured on the Xbox 360, as well as a different graphics engine and style of gameplay.
The game itself looks great and the intricate physics modeling seen in the single-player version is still active in the multiplayer version.
There are all sorts of other interactions you'll encounter in multiplayer.
For instance, aluminum cans litter the street and stepping on them not only kicks them around, but also creates a loud sound that may betray your presence to the enemy.
And here are the results done with the newer GRAW2. Image Quality settings:
- Edge Smoothing Anti Aliasing
- 16x anisotropic filtering
- Dynamic shadows HIGH
We see some CPU limitation up-to 1600x1200, after we pass that resolutions we see things scale a bit more like normal. Awesome performance for the EVGA card there.

|Washington at Washington State
April 12th | Snake River, Pullman, Wash.
Setting the Scene: Apple Cup Rivalry Head to the Palouse
After a solid showing at the San Diego Classic, the Washington women are on the road again this weekend, heading east to take on their cross-state rivals in the crew version of the Apple Cup on the Palouse. Due to a forecast of high winds for the area on Saturday, the races have been moved to Friday afternoon at 3:40 p.m. The No. 7 Huskies will try and keep the trophy on this side of the state by winning for the third year in a row against the No. 19 ranked Cougars on their home course. Overall Ernst is looking forward to taking his team over the other side of the state, as it is an opportunity for his out-of-state and out-of-country rowers to experience another part of the state and racing on the Snake River. The Washington men will also be sending a few select boats to race against Washington State's men's club team as part of the event.
About The UW Coaching Staff
The women's team is coached by the legendary Bob Ernst, who made the switch in 2007 after a 20-year stint coaching the men's program. Ernst is no stranger to women's rowing, having shepherded the program to six National Championships from 1981-87. Ernst aslo has significant Olympics and International experience and has been involved with some facet of the UW program since 1974. In 1984, he coached the Gold Medal winning eight in the Los Angeles Olympic Games. In his second season at Washington, Conor Bullis manages all coaching duties for the women's novice rowers.
Scouting Washington State
Washington State is a member of the Pac-12 Conference and based in Pullman, Wash. The Cougars are coached by Jane LaRiviere, who is in her 11th season on the Palouse. WSU opened the 2013 season at the San Diego Crew Classic. The Cougars earned a victory in the petite finals of the Women's Collegiate 2v8 with a time of 6:44.80. WSU's varsity 4 boat competed in the Grand Finals of the Women's College Four, crossing the finish line with a time of 7:35.10, securing a 6th place finish. The Varsity 8 and Novice 8 both took second in their respective petite finals.
Last Time Out
The No. 7 Huskies rowed into the Grand Finals in all four categories at the 2013 San Diego Crew Classic on Mission Bay. Washington's best and closest finish came in the Women's Collegiate Novice Eight Grand Final. The Huskies' first-year rowers edged out California by 16 hundreths of a second to win their first grand final as collegiate rowers with a time of 6:54.80). Washington's 2V8 and V4 both earned third-place finishes in their respective grand finals, missing out on second-place in both by just over a second. The Washington V8 finished 5th in its Grand Final against three of the top five ranked teams in the country with a time of 6:33.33.
Snake River
Located 19 miles outside of Pullman, Wash., Wawawai Landing is the home of Cougar rowing. The 2,000-meter course is held on the Snake River, and offers a stark contrast to the wooded, urban landscape of the Montlake Cut.
About the Huskies
Last season the Huskies had another successful campaign after competing against some of the nation's top competition. The Huskies had a solid showing at the annual San Diego Crew Classic, making the grand finals with all four of their shells. A week later the Huskies welcomed the Cougars to the Montlake Cut, winning four of five races, including the Apple Cup race between the team's varsity eights, The one-sided victory ensured that the Apple Cup trophy would stay in Seattle for the second straight year. The Huskies would later bounce back from losing the Simpson Cup to rival California by defending their home course and beating both Gonzaga and Argentina in the 26th annual Windermere Cup. The Huskies would then go on to win two medals at the Pac-12 Championships helping them to a second-place finish overall--their best finish since 2006. The 2012 season culminated in the Huskies' 16th consecutive trip to the NCAA Championships, improving on their 2011 finish, ending the weekend 7th overall with a total of 62 points.
Washington/Washington State Notes

I don't have admin access rights on one of the notebook, so I could not install iTune. However the tethering features is really good, it allows me to browse internet via my iphone, while there's no WIFI.
Any software could do the same tethering via iPhone, but not requires an admin right to install? The OS is windows xp.

I'm riding again after nine weeks off following a fall, and since coming back, I've found my stirrups feel too short. Riding longer feels more comfortable but I find it harder to keep my stirrups. What can I do to improve this?
By Your Horse
International Dressage Rider and Trainer Claire Lilley advises:I expect you're still a bit anxious after your fall, and the tension is making you draw your legs up. To beat tension in the legs, halt and take your feet out of the stirrups, let your legs hang down and circle your feet in both directions.● Check your hips are relaxed – they should feel loose and your lower back should follow the movement of your horse's back. As his hindlegs step under, each seatbone in turn should feel 'walked forward'. ● Once you feel you're co-ordinated with the movement of his back, lift your toes, but keep your hips loose and thigh stretched down. Re-take your stirrups – if you have to reach for them, or draw your legs up, alter the length accordingly. Your legs should feel the same length with stirrups as without. Giving leg aids with your calves, not heels, will keep your hips loose.

Elaborate Car Logos: Is There Meaning Behind Them?
Haven't you wondered why someauto maker's logos look the way they do? There are a lot of stories about the origins of Chevrolet's bow-tie emblem, Ferrari's prancing horse and Audi's four rings. Some are more interesting than accurate.
While BMW was famous for making airplane engines, especially during World War II, is it true the company's circular badge represents a propeller? Did Ferruccio Lamborghini choose a crest adorned with a bull mainly as a dig against his rival Enzo Ferrari? And who thought up the elaborate Cadillac badge, with all those duck decorations?
A recent story by Nick Kurczewski in Road & Track magazine delves into some of the myths and interesting truths about car logos, what they represent and just as often what they don't. The piece is worth a read

I don't look forward to Christmas. I wouldn't go so far as to say I dread it, but it looms on the horizon like a small malevolence – somewhere between weeding the garden and root canal.
I can't remember when this antipathy started, but it seems to go back to childhood. I suppose reactions are tempered by early experience – and whether your Christmas presents tended towards new bikes or new knickers.
My British Nana insisted that we ate Christmas lunch dressed in our stiff and formal Sunday best, facing an array of roasts, Christmas pudding, Christmas cake, dried fruit, nuts and mince pies – in Hawke's Bay heat that could melt the asphalt on the roads. After lunch the men would rush to discard their suits for shorts and singlets and do mysterious things under car bonnets – headless bodies apparently being devoured by engines. The women, having spent the morning preparing lunch, spent a good part of the afternoon washing up and then preparing the leftovers for dinner.
Christmas was about the only time our family ever took a drink. Needless to say, a glass-and-a-half was all it took for euphoria to set in, quickly followed by the revival of decades-old feuds and resentments.
So when I joined the NZBC's announcing staff in my late teens and discovered that the young and unattached were expected to cover Christmas Day shifts and release the married and encumbered into the bosoms of their families, colleagues got trampled in my rush to volunteer.
Christmas Day broadcasting had the dual effect of feeding the inner martyr and being a perfect excuse to escape from family gatherings. The peace and stillness of Broadcasting House was broken only by Reception ringing to report the delivery of yet another pile of edible goodies for the poor souls working while the world was celebrating. The announcers on ZB and ZM were tasked with fulsomely thanking the donors – which would set off the next round of offerings to be shared around. It was equally good down at the television studio, with an even better selection of celebratory fare arriving at the doors. Wine (strictly forbidden) was sipped in coffee cups. Safe enough. There wasn't a boss to be seen. Now this was a Christmas to enjoy!
So when Brian and I decided to volunteer at the Auckland City Mission's Christmas Day lunch last year, to me it almost felt like coming home. No peace and damn-all stillness, but more than compensated for by the pleasure of watching lonely people having a good meal and a great time. This was followed by the joy of putting our feet up and collapsing for the rest of the day with a bottle of wine and a clear conscience.
We'll be down at the Events Centre again this year, and the City Missioner has asked for help in raising funds to feed the couple of thousand people who will turn up. It costs only about $10 a head. If you'd like to sponsor a meal or two, click on the link below to our fundraising page. If nothing else, you'll enjoy the photo of Brian masquerading as a Christmas elf!
And if there aren't many posts from either of us for the next week or so, it's just because we're both suffering from a serious case of Bah Humbug.

The 3D's guitarist David Saunders remembers supporting Nirvana at the Logan Campbell Centre in Auckland on February 2, 1992.
It was pretty much Nirvana's first really big tour, and it was probably a hard time for them realising what they'd got themselves in for.
We hadn't played to a lot of big crowds before. But that show went without a hitch; we didn't have big silences between songs or have to tune up and stuff.
I don't think I'd ever felt more relaxed playing a show. I don't know if it was because there was such a good vibe in the audience - it didn't even feel like we were a support band, the crowd was just so into it.
We probably had one of our best shows. It was bizarre looking over and seeing Dave Grohl and Krist Novoselic head-banging through the entire set. It's quite unusual for a big band to even watch the support band. They were pretty special.
After we played, Dave and Krist came bounding into our dressing room like a couple of kids on Ritalin, wanting to know all about our guitars. It was really strange, but lots of fun.
Seeing the other members of Nirvana with so much energy, and then poor Kurt Cobain in the backstage area doubled over holding his stomach, it's hardly surprising they had a hard time playing.
I really enjoyed them, but I imagine it wasn't what they were like when they were really on form. I liked hearing the earlier stuff, because I'd probably followed them for a little longer than most people.
It was a really great concert, definitely one of my favourites.
From doing that show lots of things happened for us. We got into Australia on some good tours. And I've seen a poster from later in that Nirvana tour when they went to Japan with The 3D's on it. Even though we didn't end up going on tour with them, we had the offer.
At the time I don't think anyone knew how big they were going to get. We were really lucky in New Zealand to get them at that time.

I have a website where I need to change the URL structure. The old URLs look like
/olddir/part1_de.htm, the new ones will look like
/newdir/sub/category/anotherpage.htm. There are a lot of URL rewrites I need to do, I assume about 500 distinct rewrites in the end.
As my website gets quite a lot of traffic, my main concern is about performance at the moment. My questions are:
- I assume that for each request, the rewrites block will be parsed and the regex will be evaluated. Am I right?
- Will there be a performance penalty if I use these rewrites? Can nginx handle this?
- Are there any "best practices" to follow when doing a lot of rewrites?

Schlieren textures modelling
Shanti the Rickshaw
Personal project:
- Created and developed a high-performance part-of-speech tagger in C++
- Used artificial neural networks
- Collaborated with two researchers
(release date: September 2015)
The LinkRbrain platform intends to offer an easy-to use tool for Neuroscientists. It provides users with an interface to compare sets of data, either from their own computer or presets integrated in the website (e.g., fMRI mesurements of neural activation during cognitive tasks).
Visualization tools allows to render results as a nodes graph and to view the repartition of brain activity in either 2D or 3D.
As the lead developper of this project, I designed and implented:
- The client interface (jQuery, WebGL, RaphaelJS)
- A RESTful access to the data (PHP)
- The database structure and algorithms to maximize queries speed (MySQL, precalculations)
Referents & lead researchers: Salma Mesmoudi, Yves Burnod (MATRICE Project, Paris 1 University)
For this communication tools, as the back-end lead developper of the project, I designed and developped with Flask:
- The database structure, maximizing performance and flexibility (PostgreSQL, SQLAlchemy, data caching)
- A RESTful access to all the data (Flask-RESTful)
I also maintain the previously designed REST APIs, accessing a MySQL InnoDB database with the PHP framework Laravel.
Schlieren textures modelling
Schlieren textures are observed when nematic liquid crystals are viewed between crossed polarizers in a microscope. These structures organize themselves around singularity points, where the molecules are forced to follow a particular orientation.
As a student project, I suggested a discrete modelling of this phenomenon, then designed and conceived a program achieving this goal using C++, SDL and libPNG. The results were very similar to those observed in real-life crystals (see computed simulation on the left).
Other projects:
- development of a full intranet application
- search engine for the UNIX manual
- showcase websites creation
- amelioration of the interface on existing websites
- graphical design (templates & logos creation)
- fixing security issues on some websites

The first official announcement about the 2014 CMA Awards has been made and country music fans will undoubtedly be tickled pink. Brad Paisley and Carrie Underwood have agreed to return to host the 48th annual CMA Awards in what will be the seventh year they've co-hosted the show.
The Country Music Association made the announcement via their CMA World website on Wednesday. The pairing of Brad Paisley and Carrie Underwood is the first in what is expected to be a long line of announcements leading up to the November 5 CMA Awards. The names of presenters and performers as well as any special awards or events happening during the show will be revealed in the weeks to come.
The CMAs hit a gold mine when they put Brad Paisley and Carrie Underwood together. Each is funny in their own right, but when put together they have had moments of pure comedic genius. Though the skits are obviously pre-scripted, their timing, facial expressions and overall ability to block out the audience and carry out the scene until the final punch line shows the country stars' commitment to rehearsing until it's perfect.
There have been some real gems in past years. One unforgettable CMA Awards show ioncluded Brad Paisley's admission that Little Big Town told him what "motorboatin'" really means and when he enlightened Carrie Underwood she exclaimed, "Thank God Dolly isn't here tonight!"
Of course, the Tim McGraw and Faith Hill barbie doll skit was priceless as well. Not only was their over the top excitement in seeing the dolls good for an uproar of laughter, the Tim and Faith doll makeout session that followed was hilarious. And when they attempted to find out if the dolls were anatomically correct, Carrie Underwood had only "condolences" to offer Faith Hill. Even the real Tim McGraw couldn't contain his laughter along with the audience.
Other great moments of past CMA Awards shows include Brad Paisley and Carrie Underwood changing the lyrics to Hank Williams Jr.'s "Why Do You Drink" only to have him show up and "bust" them, a spoof of Robin Thicke's "Blurred Lines" that included singing with the cast of Duck Dynasty, and the shining moment of the 2013 CMA Awards when Carrie Underwood tried to explain Obamacare to Brad and exclaimed, " "It's great! I started signing up last Thursday and I'm almost done."
The 2014 CMA Awards will surely feature more great comedy based on the year's political, pop culture or country music news along with the excitement of awards being presented. MusicRow reports that Brad Paisley has won a total of fourteen CMA Awards, while Carrie Underwood has received five. Whether either is nominated for a CMA Award in 2014 should be revealed in the first part of September.

Prince Sultan Ibn Abdul Aziz, Second Deputy Prime Minister, Minister of Defense and Aviation and Inspector-General, today left Capetown after a six-day official visit to the Republic of South Africa, during which he delivered to President Nelson Mandela a message from Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques King Fahd Ibn Abdul Aziz. On his departure, Prince Sultan sent a cable to the South African President thanking him for the good reception accorded to him and his accompanying delegation, and expressed his pleasure at the outcome of his talks which have further deepened the cooperation between the two friendly countries, and wished the President good health and happiness and continued progress and prosperity for the people of South Africa. Prince Sultan was accompanied by Prince Faisal Ibn Saud Ibn Muhammad Al-Saud and Prince Faisal Ibn Sultan Ibn Abdul Aziz.
At a joint press conference with President Mandela last Thursday, Prince Sultan stated that they both shared the hope that the cosponsors of the Middle East peace process, the United States and Russia, as well as the European Union, will stand with right and justice regarding implementation of the agreements reached. He went on to explain that his talks with South African officials would cover commercial, economic, cultural and petroleum fields. Later, at a dinner in his honor, Prince Sultan remarked that nations build their friendships on the principles of legitimate freedom, human rights, and the dignity and honorableness of all citizens, and expressed his appreciation and admiration for Mandela himself. He recalled Mandela's visit to the Kingdom two years ago, and looked forward to his upcoming scheduled visit which will further enhance the excellent existing relations between the two countries.

So does this mean that Microsoft is in trouble? Not really if anything they have moved on to other partners. Although the loss of the friendly alliance with Intel will be a pain it is not going to do major damage.
