The new multicolor illumination of the PSE and MCS 30 series is made easy using convenient color-coded wires in each of the illumination colors. Each color is given a specific voltage between 5 to 28 VDC. The constant brightness intensity is maintained regardless of applied voltage. The standard version is offered in red, green, and blue. Additional color options include yellow, cyan, magenta and white, which can be made through additive color mixing. As soon as the 2 or 3 wires are supplied with the applied voltage at the same time, the result is a mixed color. The traffic light colors of red, green and yellow (RGY) for status indication are also available as a standard version. No additive color mixing is required to produce the color yellow.
The new RGB multicolor illumination option greatly expands the application range of the PSE and MCS 30 button style switches. The PSE is available in 22 / 24 / 27 / 30 mm diameters; the MCS 30 is available with a 30 mm diameter. The PSE has an IP69K ingress protection rating. It has no moving actuator and is thus absolutely impervious to any leaks or accumulation of dirt underneath or around the switch surface. This technology is ideal for hygiene-related applications such as medical equipment, food processing equipment and outdoor applications subject to vandalism such as ticketing machines.
The MCS 30 is an alternative to the highly robust, solid state PSE. It is also designed for demanding applications, although it uses a tactile switch that provides a clear haptic feedback. It has a lifetime rating of one million actuations, as opposed to the PSE's 20 million operations. The switch contacts are sealed from the front and rated IP65.

The aluminium surface of the PSE HI switches can be produced in various anodized colors. A variety of standard legends and/or raised symbols are offered to indicate function. The laser etched legends or pre-formed raised symbols provide long-term protection against wear. Raised symbols can be numbers, as well as characters from the Braille alphabet. These flexible design options make it possible to offer a wide variety of standard or custom options to meet individual design requirements.
The PSE HI piezo switches have an ingress protection class rating of IP67. The hermetic seal makes the switches ideal for use in areas that must be regularly cleaned or disinfected. Additionally, the switches offer a robust metal housing, well suited for use in harsh environments where there exists the potential for vandalism. The impact resistance according to DIN EN 50102 is IK06.
The PSE HI piezo switch is rated 0.1A @ 42 VAC/60 VDC. The piezo switching element offers an exceptionally long service life of more than 20 million switching cycles. Typical applications requiring such robust switch performance include pedestrian crossing walks, elevators, truck lifts, material-handling equipment, safety equipment, ticketing terminals, gas stations, food service equipment and processing plants.

The new MSM LA CS ON/OFF stainless steel pushbutton switch from SCHURTER is equipped with an actuator made of durable ceramic. The same ceramic is already being used to manufacture the previously introduced MSM CS momentary action switches. The material resists scratches and abrasive chemicals as well as impacts; it can also be labeled with highly endurable legends.
The non-illuminated versions of the MSM LA CS and MSM CS switches are offered with a white actuator surface. Standard or customer-specific black legends are applied directly into the ceramic material. Due to the base material and the labeling process, the inscription is scratch-proof and stands up to common cleaning agents. The illumination design provides a uniform glow across the entire surface in the desired illumination color (red, green, blue, white, orange). These versions can also be labeled with symbols. The positive labeling is black. Inverse labeling is also possible.
The MSM LA CS pushbutton switch is available with mounting diameters of 19 and 22 mm. It is suited for use in a temperature range of -20 °C to +85 °C. With actuator travel greater than 5 mm, the MSM LA CS is ideal for applications where increased feedback of the switching status (ON/OFF) is required. In the OFF state, the actuator position protrudes from the housing; in the ON state, it is recessed to the housing. This makes for user-friendly actuation and also prevents inadvertent switching. Equipped with blade terminals, the MSM LA CS can be wired up very quickly: the pre-assembled cable set is plugged into the quick-connect terminals of the microswitch, which is then snapped into the housing.
The sturdy stainless steel housing and the actuator made of scratch-proof ceramic make the MSM LA CS latching action and MSM CS momentary action switches especially well suited for use in equipment operating in harsh environments, or applications that require protection against vandalism. These include, for instance, vending machines, ticket machines, equipment in restaurant operations, public facilities, sanitary facilities as well as applications in hypoallergenic environments such as the medical sector.

Flammable substances such as gases, vapors or mist which are released into the environment, e.g. while in production, during transportation or storage, may ignite and pose serious consequences for persons and property. The same is true for dust which may develop in conjunction with air to an explosive atmosphere. To ensure security in these areas, the Device Directives 94/9/EC was developed for products and protection systems. The purpose of the guidelines is the protection of personnel and devices which are working in such hazardous areas. This is done by eliminating all possible sources of fire and ignitions in the products and systems used in these areas.
The PSE EX family is certified according to ATEX and IECEx regulations. The area of application is consistent with that of the device group II (other areas than mining). It comprises systems with a potentially explosive atmosphere consisting of a mixture of air and gases, vapors or mists or in industrial areas where dust-air blends infuse the atmosphere and the danger of a dust explosion can arise.
The approval marking is Ex II 2 GD (according ATEX regulations), Ex ib IIC T6 ... T5 Gb and Ex ib IIIC T85 ° C ... T100 ° C Db (according IEC regulations) for gases and dust.
The temperature class was extended from T4 to T5 and T6. Therefore the permissible power dissipation of the PSE EX was limited accordingly so that the piezo switch is intrinsically safe according to EN60079-11. In addition, the flammability group was increased from IIB to IIC, respectively IIIC (gas, dust). This extension will allow the use of the PSE EX in atmosphere with further type of gases, combustible dust, ignitable fibers and flyings.
Typical applications include oil and gas exploration rigs, petrochemical facilities, environments of transportation and storage of combustible materials, paint mixing devices, painting devices, grain mills, wood processing industry, chemical plants etc.
The PSE EX standard models are available with mounting diameters of 16, 19 and 22 mm with pin connectors and housing colors in red, green or natural aluminum. On request other colors, housing diameters and connection versions are obtainable. The switches for hazardous use have a label with the particulars of the certification and an identification number. Installation instructions are included in the packaging according to the ATEX directives. For detailed specifications see datasheet PSE EX.

Metal Line Switches
The metal switch MSM from SCHURTER is available with extended illumination colours. The range of colours for standard items consists of red, green, yellow, blue and white.
An additional feature of the SCHURTER switches is an already integrated series resistor for the connection of the ring illumination or the surface illumination. The operator may choose between versions with supply voltages of 5 V, 12 V or 24 V.
The switches are available for mounting diameters of 19, 22 and 30 mm. The switching function is N.O, N.C and changeovers in 1- or 2-pin construction. Because of its small, low-profile front mounting of 1.7 mm, its protection class rating of IP67, and its high impact resistance, the switch is extremely robust and protected against vandalism. Various contact types cover a range for possible switching voltages from 5 VDC to 250 VAC. Switching currents from 0.1 to 10 ampere are possible.

Shiseido Smoothing Veil Face Primer, bacteria, rant.
First of all, let me say I dont consider primers obligatory in make up routine. Person can live normaly whitout one. IMO, most people could really go with just quality moisturizing foundation without priming face. Just like eyeshadow base and million brushes, face primers have become must have in last few years. My mom never had a primer. Oh, God, how I hate make up trends. But I always jump on the wagon.
Anyway, I tried a few primers – Sephora, Pupa, Shiseido. I will write about the last one today because it is my favorite primer ever. Other two were greasy and overloaded with silicones and felt heavy on skin.
Shiseido Smoothing Veil is must have for me. Although I dont use it often as I did before because I replaced regular foundation with BB creams and with them I dont feel a need for priming at all in normal circumstances, I still reach for it when I need my make up to stay on all day.
It comes in jar like most face moisturizers which I like because I can see how much product has left and I can use every single drop of it. I dont care about "super clean bacteria free only tubs and pump bottles are way to go" crap because, lets face it – do you really think a bacteria cant come into the tub just because you dont touch products with fingers? Well, good morning to you, my dear, bacteria are aaaall around us so dont decive yourself that product is sterile when it comes out of factory and that you are keeping it sterile. That is the reason you find so many perservatives and conservans in cosmetic products so you can also question yourself have you ever seen mold on your face cream or foundation which you used with fingers. I think you havent, too. This is not a story about how you should be dirty and stinky and not care about hygiene, I just get easily annoyed by bacteria overreacting which is also very popular lately. And btw, you cant become resistant to something you have never been in contact with. Thats the way our body and immune system works. The other pair of sleeves is the question – do you wash your hands prior to applying make up? If you dont, there is no point in making believe that you are doing something good for your skin by buying pump bottles of foundation and leaving half of product in. But again…who am I to tell you what to do? I just like ranting on everything. And I love bacteria.
Back to the jar of SV – it contains 30ml (1oz), like most foundations and creams, and product itself is white and quite runny cream. You need a tiny bit to cover all face, dont put on too much or it will peel off in pieces when you put on foundation. It leaves soft and velvety feeling on skin and fills in minor pores and wrinkles. Dont expect miracle wrinkle eraser but it will improve skin condition whatsoever. It also whitens skin a bit so foundation sits on top of it equaly and you can apply it flawlessly.
I have used 6-7 jars of this in last 3-4 years, that much I can tell you. One jar can last you 6 months with reasonable everyday use. After Shseido SV, I stoped buying any other primers because this one was great for my skin.
Only thing is…Price here in Croatia…well, like most high end make up – about 60$. You can find it online at Strawberrynet for half less.
So, if you feel need for better foundation performances, flawless and resistant make up…try this. You wont regret it. And love your bacteria.
Dont forget to enter my Christmas giveaway!

Being a fan of stackoverflow, I thought I could try this question here, hope its not too off topic.
I'm wanting to build a free standing climbing wall in my garden and dont know where to start working out its strength and so construction.
It will be made from interlocking (using bolts) 50cmx50cmx50cm mild steel cubes stacked 3m tall with a base of 1mx1m. The 4 base cubes will then be bolted to a concrete foundation.
If I then bolt other cubes to the side of the main stack to create an overhang how can I work out the stress put onto the joints between the overhang and the main stack and between the stack and the foundations?
The bolts between the cubes will be 3cm long and 2cm diameter.
I havent decided what fixings to use between the stack and concrete as I believe this is where the problem will lie.
Thanks for any help its much appreciated!

Do Dreams Have Meaning Or Are They Just Our Imaginations Running Wild?
We've all had those dreams where you wake up just a little confused. It's especially bad when an alarm wakes you up mid-dream...just when it was starting to get really good!! I had one of those dreams last night, and it got me thinking: does it really mean something or is just your brain taking a little vacation?

In Memory of Lisa Tian, Joy of Tokyo in New Tampa restaurant owner
I stumbled upon Joy of Tokyo in New Tampa one day in January of this year when a friend and I were heading to SoHo Sushi North and found it closed at 2PM. We decided to try a new restaurant we had seen on Bruce B. Downs by Acropolis, Joy of Tokyo. Once inside we had a great meal and the owner, Lisa (Lixin) Tian, came and sat with us. We talked for quite some time about her new business and how much I liked the food. She told me she moved all the way from Ohio down to Tampa to support her son attending USF and had successful businesses in Indiana and Ohio. I gave her some suggestions about using social media and setting up a website and she took my suggestions.
The next time I visited for lunch the owner and I talked about her new website and Facebook fan page. She told me her son who attends USF made the accounts for her since she wasn't too familiar with how to use the internet. We laughed and after another great lunch I decided I wanted to schedule a sushi social with the organization I started at USF, The Japanese Club at USF. She was happy to set it up and I talked with her for about thirty minutes over the phone, she said she was happy to work with the USF community and would plan special discounts for my members and work with us however best she could.
The sushi social had a decent turnout for being scheduled during the day and the owner prepared everything and was completely hospitable to us. The next time I would interact with Joy of Tokyo would be at a Sushi Workshop organized by USF organizations Sigma Lambda Beta and Asian Students in America (A.S.i.A.). The employees from Joy of Tokyo came to our school and explained to students how to make certain sushi rolls. It was clear that Lisa was a smart businesswoman who was open-minded and happy to be a part of the USF community.
Unfortunately, in late May 2011 – I heard that Lisa Tian had been hospitalized after being severely beaten by her husband, Chunping Lin, and Lisa suffered severe bleeding from the brain and a broken wrist in a case of domestic violence. Chunping a six-foot tall, 160 pound man, also attacked his 10-year old son who was defending his mother and caused a laceration of the son's finger with broken glass. Lisa became comatose at St. Joseph's Hospital and after two months of the restaurant being closed down, I heard that she died a few days ago. Her husband was being charged with attempted murder, domestic violence, and child abuse according to article released in June. I am unaware of his current criminal charges.
During the week that Lisa became hospitalized a positive article was written about her business by a local newsletter. I am deeply saddened that her business never had the chance to reach success in the Tampa Bay area and that a local community leader has been lost in such tragic circumstances. The restaurant was hardly at it's half-year point. My condolences go out to her children who must be struggling through such a difficult time. We have lost a pioneer in New Tampa and a local friend. Rest in Peace.

that is so sad :[ i hope that her restaurant endures and her husband gets what he deserves
My name is Sara, I worked for Tian in Ohio, I also babysat her youngest son Derrick, and mowed their lawn once a week. She has suffered from her husbands abuse since I have known her, and she never left him because she loved him, and he didn't speak good english and she didnt know how he would make it on his own. It kills me that he took her life, but the worse part is that she knew it was going to happen one day. Tian was a wonderful person and would do anything she could to help anyone. She was one of the most awesome people I have ever met, and I guess its right when they say only the good die young. Rest in peace Tian. I love you
Very necessary post well written.
Sarah-That is probably the saddest thing I've read in a long time.
Wow, thank you for sharing this story. Terribly sad, but it is nice that you got to know her and shed this light on her life and her business.
She was a very wonderful woman. So sad her husband had to take her away from us
I knew Tian very well and worked with her on a couple deals she asked my help on. "Mike" as her husband was called was a great cook but a very violent man with a terrible temper, at all times. A friend of mine who is a police officer once confronted her beat up face while stopping into their place of business, China One, as he knew exactly what was taking place at first glance. When they left Oxford the newer house had walls with fist sized holed in the walls that had to be fixed. He was a stick of dynamite ready to explode over any little thing.
I have a hard time believing Tian loved Mike, as he is not a loveable person, but it was an arrangement for business purposes. Such a shame. I really liked Tian and would not have wished this on her in any way. I hope her son gets the help he needs so he will not end up like his father. Attempted murder is hardly adequate as a charge for him.
Just a update Mr Lin was convicted for the murder of his wife today in court… Justice has been done!

Dissolved inorganic and organic nitrogen levels are elevated in aquatic systems due to anthropogenic activities. Dissolved organic nitrogen (DON) arises from various sources, and its impact could be more clearly constrained if specific sources were identified and if the molecular level composition of DON were better understood. In this work, the pharmaceutical carbamazepine was used to identify septic-impacted groundwater in a coastal watershed. Using ultrahigh resolution mass spectrometry data, the nitrogen-containing features of the dissolved organic matter in septic-impacted and non-impacted samples were compared. The septic impacted groundwater samples have a larger abundance of nitrogen-containing formulas. Impacted samples have additional DON features in the regions ascribed as 'protein-like' and 'lipid-like' in van Krevelen space and have more intense nitrogen-containing features in a specific region of a carbon versus mass plot. These features are potential indicators of dissolved organic nitrogen arising from septic effluents, and this work suggests that ultrahigh resolution mass spectrometry is a valuable tool to identify and characterize sources of DON.

Sabkhat (Salt flats) are common geographic features of low-lying marine coastal areas that develop under hyper-arid climatic conditions. They are characterized by the presence of highly concentrated saline solutions and evaporitic minerals, and have been cited in the geologic literature as present-day representations of hyper-arid regional paleohydrogeology, paleoclimatology, coastal processes, and sedimentation in the geologic record. It is therefore important that a correct understanding of the origin and development of these features be achieved. Knowledge of the source of solutes is an important first step in understanding these features. Historically, two theories have been advanced as to the main source of solutes in sabkha brines: an early concept entailing seawater as the obvious source, and a more recent and dynamic theory involving ascending geologic brine forced upward into the base of the sabkha by a regional hydraulic gradient in the underlying formations. Ra-226 could uniquely distinguish between these sources under certain circumstances, as it is typically present at elevated activity of hundreds to thousands of Bq/m3 (Becquerels per cubic meter) in subsurface formation brines; at exceedingly low activities in open ocean and coastal water; and not significantly supplied to water from recently formed marine sedimentary framework material. The coastal marine sabkha of the Emirate of Abu Dhabi was used to test this hypothesis. The distribution of Ra-226 in 70 samples of sabkha brine (mean: 700 Bq/m3), 7 samples of underlying deeper formation brine (mean: 3416 Bq/m3), the estimated value of seawater (< 16 Bq/m3) and an estimate of supply from sabkha sedimentary framework grains (<~6 Bq/m3) provide the first direct evidence that ascending geologic brine contributes significantly to the solutes of this sabkha system.

R.; Lazar, Boaz Oxygen availability restricts groundfish to the oxygenated, shallow margins of Saanich Inlet, an intermittently anoxic fjord in British Columbia, Canada. New and previously reported 210Pb measurements in sediment cores compared with flux data from sediment traps indicate major focusing of sediments from the oxygenated margins to the anoxic basin seafloor. We present environmental and experimental evidence that groundfish activity in the margins is the major contributor to this focusing. Fine particles resuspended by groundfish are advected offshore by weak bottom currents, eventually settling in the anoxic basin. Transmittance and sediment trap data from the water column show that this transport process maintains an intermediate nepheloid layer (INL) in the center of the Inlet. This INL is located above the redox interface and is unrelated to water density shifts in the water column. We propose that this INL is shaped by the distribution of groundfish (as resuspension sources) along the slope and hence by oxygen availability to these fish. We support this conclusion with a conceptual model of the resuspension and offshore transport of sediment. This fish-induced transport mechanism for sediments is likely to enhance organic matter decomposition in oxygenated sediments and its sequestration in anoxic seafloors.

Georges Bank is a large, shallow feature separating the Gulf of Maine from the Atlantic Ocean. Previous studies demonstrated a strong tidal-mixing front during the warm season on the northern bank margin between thermally stratified water in the Gulf of Maine and mixed water on the bank. Tides transport warm water off the bank during flood tide and cool gulf water onto the bank during ebb tide. During 10 days in August 2009, we mapped frontal temperatures in five study areas along ~100 km of the bank margin. The seabed "frontal zone", where temperature changed with frontal movment, experienced semidiurnal temperature maxima and minima. The tidal excursion of the frontal boundary between stratified and mixed water ranged 6 to 10 km. This "frontal boundary zone" was narrower than the frontal zone. Along transects perpendicular to the bank margin, seabed temperature change at individual sites ranged from 7.0°C in the frontal zone to 0.0°C in mixed bank water. At time series in frontal zone stations, changes during tidal cycles ranged from 1.2 to 6.1°C. The greatest rate of change (−2.48°C hr−1) occurred at mid-ebb. Geographic plots of seabed temperature change allowed the mapping of up to 8 subareas in each study area. The magnitude of temperature change in a subarea depended on its location in the frontal zone. Frontal movement had the greatest effect on seabed temperature in the 40 to 80 m depth interval. Subareas experiencing maximum temperature change in the frontal zone were not in the frontal boundary zone, but rather several km gulfward (off-bank) of the frontal boundary zone. These results provide a new ecological framework for examining the effect of tidally-driven temperature variability on the distribution, food resources, and reproductive success of benthic invertebrate and demersal fish species living in tidal front habitats.

BOLIVIA—When studying cell biology, most students look at cell components under a microscope or study drawings in textbooks. But Brunswick County Academy students turned their cell study unit into edible works of art.
Sarah Herzog, seventh- and eighth-grade science and social studies instructor, said Academy students had been studying cells for several weeks when science instructor Mary Evans had the idea for students to create cell cakes and decorate them with different materials representing each part of the cell.
Communities in Schools of Brunswick County Inc. (CIS) has released its annual data and information report for 2008-2009.
CIS aims to address dropout prevention and offers educational resources for students and families throughout the county.
Despite operating with a 16 percent budget cut, CIS reported 43,727 volunteer hours and more than $130,000 in donations during 2008-2009.
Community colleges throughout North Carolina may soon be able to admit undocumented immigrants, the State Board of Community Colleges has announced.
The board recently voted 16 to 1 to adopt a policy that would allow undocumented immigrants to apply for and attend community colleges. Applicants must have graduated from a United States high school and will be required to pay out-of-state tuition, which equals $7,700 per academic year.
The ruling also states no undocumented immigrant may displace a North Carolina or United States resident from any class or program.
Performers representing countries and cultures around the world will share their talents at this year's Brunswick County Intercultural Festival, which will begin at 1 p.m. Sunday, Oct. 4, at Brunswick Community College.
Lydia Moore Coyner, the performing arts chairperson and the event's mistress of ceremonies, has been in charge of bringing acts to the festival since 2004. Starting with basic Internet searches, the performance lineup has evolved into a variety of favorites from years past as well as local groups.
Oftentimes, we let competition get the best of us.
How many times do you see athletes make an unnecessary scene when a play goes wrong or when they don't agree with a call? (I'm talking to you, Serena.)
How many times have you been at a community sporting event and witnessed a parent or a coach engaging in the same reprehensible behavior? How many times have you personally gotten angry, said or did things you later regret while playing a simple game?
SHALLOTTE—Exceptional Children (EC) of all abilities are taking to the bowling lanes as part of a five-week Special Olympics bowling tournament.
EC Students are bused from Brunswick County Schools throughout the county to Planet Fun once a week for four weeks of bowling practice. The fifth week will be a tournament where they will compete against each other.
Steve Goodwin, county coordinator for Special Olympics, said the tournament has been a fixture of Brunswick County Parks and Recreation for many years, and more students participate each year.
SHALLOTTE—West Brunswick High School may be the largest and most crowded high school in the county, but Principal George Kelley isn't afraid of a challenge.
"I just don't think we have any excuses not to be successful here," he said. "We're headed in the right direction, our scores are indicating that."
Tandoori chicken is an Indian dish marinated in yogurt, lemon juice and a mixture of some or all of the following spices: ginger, garlic, cumin, chili powder, coriander, turmeric, cayenne pepper, paprika and garam masala (if you can find it).
The marinated chicken is baked at a high heat using either wood or charcoal in an Indian Tandoor oven, a cylindrical oven made of clay. These ovens are typically used in India for baking many types of bread and also for roasting meat.
It wasn't that long ago sipping soda from a bottle—Coke, Pepsi or Cheerwine—was about as American and North Carolinian as you could get.
As a kid, I lived for the times when my mother would let us go fetch a little bottle of Coke tucked in a secret place in the kitchen or down in the basement.
Fond are my memories of perching at the counter at Woolworth's or discovering the wonder of the new McDonald's with an icy soft drink as a tooth-busting complement.
Before all you PETA fans get too excited about the title of this report, you may want to read further. After more than 15 years of fishing for a living, this past Sunday it finally hit me: Fishing is just plain cruel. Let me give you an example.
I was guiding a nice group of guys from the Charlotte area for a day of fishing. The weather was such it limited us to staying within a mile or so of the beach, but no matter, because the Spanish mackerel and kings had been biting good along the beach front.

Interactive website where students learn how artifacts are used in interpreting and writing about the past. What is unique is the opportunity to have students write their own interpretation of this 1830 farmhouse based on five artifacts and then compare it with what was done by a historian. This provides an opportunity to have them understand how history is written. This is a usable teaching strategy that can be adapted for teaching a variety of topics in all history courses and across grade levels.
For example, students could collect 5 artifacts from their home to write about the history of their family. Bob, a high school teacher used in his class. " I projected the five artifacts on a screen and led class discussion on each object ... The kids enjoyed it ... They all scored well on the quiz I gave them two days later over the items we looked at."

Survival Mode is a new addition to Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 and seems to be capturing a lot of players' interests. In a way it's a new take on Zombies offered up in Black Ops, only instead of being hounded by the undead, you're now faced with waves of varying enemies on each of the sixteen available multiplayer maps.
Each one can be tackled on or offline, and with or without a partner to assist you. I'd very much recommend tackling them with a partner, as with each progressively difficult wave the task becomes a daunting one, and having someone there to back you up or revive you when the going gets tough can be invaluable.
Selecting a Partner
Offline this will obviously come down to preference, but you'll need someone who is pretty familiar with the first-person shooter genre if you're looking to make any real progress. There's nothing worse than having to carry the burden of dispatching enemies and saving your partner every time they get swamped and bleed out.
Online it's more of a minefield, where your partner, despite their level, can be a nightmare to play with, and go running off into large hoards without any real thought of the consequences. A good tip is to friend those who you work well with, although you should also peruse the leaderboards. You'll be amazed how helpful some of the best on the planet are, even the top ten ranked players, some of which I've personally befriended and tackled levels with on multiple occasions.
You'll also want to look out for people with bad connections. As it scrolls through the numbers <50ms, etc, you'll probably want to steer clear of anyone higher than say <100ms as chances are it will be lag city and even the simple task of turning and aiming becomes more of a chore than it's worth.
Know Your Weapons
One of the biggest assets you can have in the heat of battle is a full understanding of the arsenal available to you and what each one can do to make your life a whole lot easier. For the completely uneducated, the armouries are split into three main categories, and are located at different points on the map. They are:
Weapon Armory – Here you can buy all the various guns featured in the game, their upgrades, and refill your ammo.
Defense Armory – Here you can buy armour, sentry guns, grenades and other various countermeasures.
Air Support Armory – Here you can call in air strikes, launch predator missiles, and even get support from Delta squads.
Now there are no bad choices available to you, but there are bad combinations of weapons, and more crucially, bad times to buy certain weapons as it can be a complete waste of your funds and mess up any potential strategy you have going. For example, there's no point in using a predator missile towards the end of wave nine when there are few enemies left and the toughest enemies in the mode, the riot shield Juggernauts, are about to arrive in wave ten.
Picking Your Location
Each map obviously has its strengths and weaknesses and these can be exploited to your advantage. The main thing you want to be aware of is the locations of your three armouries as running like a headless chicken between these can make or break your survival in the next wave. Speaking of survival, if you want to live for a long time there is one strategy to adopt that trumps all others, and it's a strategy that has been used since the birth of the genre – camping.
Now this may be frowned upon by some, but in this instance I believe it to be perfectly acceptable and will probably be the difference between you surviving to wave thirteen or surviving to wave thirty and beyond.
You want somewhere that allows you to get to all of the available weapons quickly, so preferably somewhere towards the middle of the map is ideal. It needs to be somewhere with two entrances and no exposure to enemies from surrounding windows or ledges. Then get comfy in the crouched or prone position, pick an entrance each and get ready to pick off the enemies one by one as they come into view.
Now there are some exceptions where you will have to move, such as when explosive attack dogs break through, and that's when you will need to take them down, wait for them to blow and then revert to your position. This is important as becoming adept with the art of executing all in front of you quickly is achieved with familiarity.
Let's Get to Killin'
With every enemy you kill in the game you'll be given funds, as you will at the end of each wave, and knowing what to do with these at the right time will help you immensely. Of course it depends what map you've picked, what compliments your team mate and a whole host of other circumstances as to what is selected at what time, but there are some general rules to follow.
The first rule is to take out enemies on the first few waves primarily with melee attacks as this saves ammo and ultimately money. It's also a good idea to pick up the weapons dropped by enemies and then upgrade to more suitable weapons later on as and when you feel they are needed. Here are a few more tips to help you on your way.
Sensible Sentry
Sentry Guns can help land more hits faster, which means you can move onto the next enemy faster and this can be vital in not getting overrun. So positioning one at a point where you and it are firing simultaneously is a good base. You don't want to position one of these outside of a doorway that you are the other side of as it's harder to protect and it won't be long before it's destroyed.
You are allowed one per person so make sure there is one near each of you at all times and when the time comes to replace it do so as quick as is financially possible.
You Only Live Twice
A Self Revive is also quite literally a life saver. There's nothing worse than bleeding out and forcing your team mate to leave his post to come and save you, leaving you vulnerable in both spots. So if by chance you do get hit by a rogue grenade or similar then you can simply blast your way back to life and continue slaughtering all before you. They may be pricey but can ultimately make or break a tough wave.
Team Building
As with Sentry Guns, each of you will be able to call on a small team of allies to aid you in your quest. If you can afford it go for the riot Delta squad as they are far less susceptible to being taken out and have the added bonus of being able to charge down on enemies. They also act as a distraction, allowing you more time to pick off enemies one by one.
The thing to be wary of when you have a team deployed in front of you is explosives. You want to make sure if you can that anyone with bombs strapped to them are taken out far away, so that your guys aren't taken out in the blast. You also want to be aware of where you throw your grenades and plant your explosives in conjunction with their position.
Claymore is Less
A great way of thinning the herd is to plant claymores in places you know enemies will spawn near and also key areas around your location that they will have to pass in order to reach you. This not only makes your job easier when they finally reach you, but it's also a way to rack up kill streaks and rampages that give you more money to play with. Again, just be wary of you, your Delta squad and your team mate potentially being caught in any blast.
Rotation Over Refill
Make sure you have two guns on you that are capable of rapid and prolonged fire. Guns with short bursts or a long reload time are no use to anyone in this particular instance. This means less money spent constantly refilling the one weapon. This way once one is running low you can switch out to the other and continue the carnage, using your money for more useful things. Those ammo refills might seem cheap, but the price soon adds up over the long run.
Juggernaut Heartaches
These are the main source of death for most for all sorts of reasons and we will try to cover a few of them here. The main fopaux is becoming trapped in a corner by one of these things and then being blasted away to oblivion. You are now trapped in a small room or corridor and when your team mate comes to rescue you he is downed too.
The best way to avoid this scenario is to always stay on the move while they're in play. You should aim to take out all the lesser enemies first, preferably before a Juggernauts even reaches you so that way you won't have to worry about additional fire from other targets. From here it's a case of flash banging them and letting loose as near to their head as is physically possible. It doesn't matter if it's a standard Juggernaut or one with a riot shield as the latter will leave themselves unguarded once the grenade hits.
Remember not to panic and not to find yourself in a place where there's no escape because more often than not this will spell the end of your game. You can always outrun these things and if needs be take turns with your team mate letting off shots at him while the other recovers.
The only problem with running and gunning is when you have to tackle a chopper while one of these things's is pursuing you it limits your field of play to an indoor arena. The key here is to run to a safe place and take out that chopper as quickly as possible, before turning your attention back to tackling the Juggernaut. Preferably having a Predator Missile to hand is the easier method of taking out any flying foes.
Some make the mistake of using their predator missile on the first Juggernaut that touches ground, which is all well and good early on, but when you have many to deal with and a chopper it may not help you as much.
25 Second Splash-and-Dash
A good rule of thumb is, if you don't think you can make it back to your safe house before the next wave begins then it's probably best to stay put, or only visit the one armory in the allotted time. Unless it's something imperative to staying alive, such as an ammo refill, it may be best waiting for a more suitable opportunity.
There's nothing worse than being across the other side of the map, albeit with your ideal choice of weaponry, only to be surrounded by fire, or see your team mate trapped because you weren't there to watch his back. Staying together in Survival Mode is the single biggest aspect of staying alive.
Another tip if you struggle for time is leave the chopper until last, if it's safe to do so, and then use that time to duck and cover whilst you restock. That way, in theory, you have unlimited time to equip yourself for whatever lies in the next wave.
Remembering the Sequence
The waves for each map will always follow a set pattern and if you want to make it above and beyond wave twenty, which is usually a good benchmark, then remembering when to buy a predator missile, when to deploy a Delta squad and where to plant your Claymores are all thing's you should be thinking about.
In fact, write them down on a pad if it helps. Then for example, you can look down and think wave eleven is coming up, it's Juggernaut time, let's go stock up on flash bangs and a predator missile so they won't stand a chance against me. It might seem a little arduous but it will bring you the results you desire.
A Final Word
I don't claim to be the know-all expert on this mode, these are simply observations I have made after some fifty hours of gameplay. Many of these hours spent experimenting with the various trials and tribulations of the mode and discovering what works and the most efficient way to get the job done.
By all means I welcome differing strategies or variations on anything I have mentioned here which I'd be more than happy for you to share with others. For now though, happy gaming, and if you're reading this with a particular goal in mind – a trophy or leaderboard glory- then I wish you the very best of luck.

Nice tips! I'll try to follow them when I get the game.
Excellent article. This feature alone is worth the price of admission, IMHO. I find myself playing this mode more than any other. Its not because I suck at PVP...honest!!! Ok, it is, but I'd still play this regardless.

The universe exhibits the power and wisdom of God.
No doubt God's object in creation was to exercise and manifest his perfections. "All things that are in heaven and in earth, whether they be thrones or dominions, principalities or powers, all things were made by him, and for him." Universalists talk of and magnify the mercy of God, but seem to overlook the justice of God. The fact that Christ was put to death for men, shows that those men would have been justly exposed to death had he not suffered in their stead.
It occurs to me that if we deny the reasonableness of future punishment, we do so on the ground that we are not willing that God shall have a state of things in which his justice can be exhibited. Justice is the more important perfection of God: he says, "I will have mercy upon whom I will have mercy." From this it appears he may withhold his MERCY and yet be God, but not so his JUSTICE. "Justice and judgment are the habitation of his throne." It appears his throne could stand should he withhold his mercy, but not so of his "justice"; take that from him and his throne would fall.
The element of justice is essential to all human governments. A human government with universal mercy would be like a body without bones. A human government in which every punishment is DISCIPLINARY would be a failure.
There must, in all governments, human or divine, be a policy that honors the law, as well as that exhibits mercy. Let a human government adopt the policy that every criminal shall be forgiven, and that no one shall suffer but for his own improvement and civilization would die. Some respect must be had to the honor of law.
Among the nations of earth it is found that mercy can be shown in some degree, but not to an infinite degree, I mean not UNIVERSALLY, without destroying the very idea of government. And so when we contend that the mercy of God is not universal, we only contend that God's government in this respect is like the best governments of earth. His mercy to his redeemed people, "endures forever," and will never terminate in time or eternity. But to contend that his mercy must needs be extended to all the race, is to lose sight of his justice and hold that this attribute of God must never be exhibited.
But the universe is an arena in which all the perfections of God are seen; his power is seen in the vastness of creation. The order and regulation of all the plants proclaim his power and wisdom. The earth, with its motions that occasion the seasons, making the seasons the proper length to mature vegetation for the sustenance of life; also its motion that occasions day and night, making them not so long as that animal and plant life would perish with cold at night, nor yet with heat by day; and yet making day and night long enough for the good of his creatures on earth; also in placing the sun a suitable distance from earth, and establishing an order of things that holds the sun in its place for thousands of years, for the good of man, and in an infinite variety of ways the Lord has shown his power in creation, and wisdom that cannot be comprehended, and throughout all his works, in the starry heavens above, or among his creatures of earth, we are met with evidences of infinite wisdom and power. So we behold all the perfections of God shining out in his works, his power and wisdom, and see his goodness to his creatures. Shall we not expect a state of things in which his justice shall be as well exhibited as his other attributes are and have been exhibited.
The words, "He that spared not his own Son," suggests to us a justice as inflexible as possible to conceive of and remind us that the justice of God will not be laid aside for his own Son. Every argument, that it is cruel in God to inflict future punishment, or too severe, or unreasonable, would be as good an argument that Christ himself should not be made to suffer, but "He spared not his own Son." This is an exhibition of his justice as truly as the future punishment of the finally impenitent. "He that spared not his own Son," suggests to us that our salvation can only come by a method that honors law, and removes guilt, and invests us with a righteousness as real and true as the law is spiritual and holy; it also suggests to us that if we should be lost eternally we would have no more arguments to make for ourselves than could have been made in favor of "sparing" Christ.
If one attribute of God may be spoken of as the highest, then his justice, we may say, should have that place.
Our souls in heaven will be as free from sin as his law requires them to be, and so we shall have a righteousness as pure and spotless as that which adorns our adorable Saviour. My object in these pages has been to present something of the method of grace in preparing poor guilty mortals to live in heaven itself.
May this be the sweet and eternal privilege of the unworthy writer of these pages, as well as that of the reader.

APEX-03-1 builds upon the previously flown Biological Research in Canisters (BRIC)-16 experiment which flew on STS-131.
Experiment Description
Research Overview
- Despite decades of research, many of the molecular mechanisms by which gravity regulates plant development remain poorly understood. It is likely that in addition to gravitropism, a number of fundamental plant developmental processes that are influenced by gravity have yet to be discovered.
- The goal of the APEX-03-1 research is to utilize the unique microgravity environment provided by the ISS and the model plant Arabidopsis thaliana to uncover novel pathways that orchestrate the complex cellular processes by which gravity shapes plant development.
- The hope is that knowledge gained from this research will also translate into a deeper mechanistic understanding of molecular pathways that govern root growth and cell wall development, which in turn will benefit agricultural practices and bioenergy research on Earth.
The overall goal of APEX-03-1 is to uncover the underlying molecular mechanisms by which microgravity impacts cell wall architecture in the model plant Arabidopsis thaliana, using the VEGGIE facility housed on the ISS. This research builds on a robust dataset from BRIC-16, which flew on STS-131. Through experiments with the BRIC hardware, the science team discovered that spaceflight had a profound influence on the expression of genes involved in regulating cell wall architecture. This led to a hypothesis that plants respond to microgravity through the transcriptional reprogramming of genes that control cell wall remodeling. Because of the prominent root developmental phenotypes (i.e. primary root skewing and inhibition of root hair growth) that were observed in the BRIC-16 experiment, it appears that microgravity-dependent changes in cell wall-related transcripts are predominantly manifested in roots. Furthermore, because primary root and root cell wall ultrastructural defects were most pronounced in a mutant to a vegetative actin isoform (act2), it is hypothesized that microgravity predominantly affects genes that lie within signaling networks linking the actin cytoskeleton with the plant extracellular matrix. Given the successful experiments with BRIC-16, the science team is in an excellent position to effectively utilize the unique capabilities of the VEGGIE Facility on the ISS to test the aforementioned hypotheses.
A new algorithm was developed from the BRIC-16 experiments and is utilized here. The algorithm allows the science team to more rigorously quantify root growth behavior of wild-type, and a higher order vegetative actin mutant (act2 act8 double mutant). This clarifies the extent of actin involvement in specifying root orientation and cell wall remodeling in space. Through the use of monoclonal antibodies and immunocytochemistry, the science team also determines how the distribution and abundance of specific cell wall components change in microgravity, and correlate such changes with root developmental responses and modifications in gene expression.
Finally, more sensitive deep sequencing technologies (e.g. RNA-Seq) is employed to discover novel microgravity-induced transcriptional changes in plants. Knowledge from these spaceflight studies is then translated into corresponding gene functional studies (e.g. mutant analysis and overexpression), which the science team expects may lead to the discovery of new players that modulate root development on earth and in microgravity.
Space Applications
The role of gravity in regulating plant development, especially seedlings, remains poorly understood, and scientists expect that molecular pathways related to gravity remain undiscovered. Experiments on the STS-131 space shuttle mission showed that microgravity has a profound influence on genes that regulate cell wall development. Understanding these pathways will help guide genetic engineering of plants to support long-term space missions and planetary exploration.
Earth Applications
Understanding the molecular and genetic mechanisms that control plant development will help provide fundamental tools for improving agricultural and bioenergy research on Earth. It will help in designing crops that use resources more efficiently.
Operational Requirements
- Time between launch and installation into VEGGIE: 7-12 days
Experiment run duration: 11 days
- Harvest of five plates after 6 days
- Time between harvest and MELFI insertion: ≥ 24 hours
- Harvest photos required; request live video of harvest operations when possible
Only the KFTs return
- KFTs return at +4°C and -20°C in Cold Bag
Operational Protocols
VEGGIE is prepared for the APEX-03-1 experiment by installing petri plate holders. Six petri plates are removed from Cold Stowage and transferred to VEGGIE. After an experiment duration of 7 days, the first set of petri plates is removed from VEGGIE and transferred to the Maintenance Work Area for the harvest activity. The harvest activity requires the crew member to use forceps to pull the plants from the agar surface on the petri plate. The plants are placed into KFTs and actuated to deliver the Paraformaldehyde Glutaraldehyde, or RNALater chemical preservative to the plants. The KFTs are then transferred to cold stowage. After an experiment duration of 11 days, the second set of petri plates are removed from VEGGIE and transferred to the Maintenance Work Area for the final harvest activity. In total, four Paraformaldehyde Glutaraldehyde KFTs and four RNALater KFTs are used to harvest the APEX-03-1 petri plates. The Paraformaldehyde Glutaraldehyde KFTs are transferred to cold stowage at +4°C, and the RNALater KFTs are transferred to cold stowage at -80°C in MELFI. The KFTs return to earth at +4°C (Paraformaldehyde Glutaraldehyde) and -20°C (RNALater).

Jesus said, "When you give a luncheon or dinner, do not invite your friends, your brothers or relatives, or your rich neighbors; if you do, they may invite you back and so you will be repaid. But when you give a banquet, invite the poor, the crippled, the lame, and the blind. You should be happy that they cannot repay you, for you will be repaid at the resurrection of the just." This command to love and serve those who cannot repay us strengthens our resolve to love and serve the unborn children, who are in danger of being killed by abortion. They cannot know right now that we are helping them and speaking up for them. They cannot repay us. These are the ones we should love and serve above all.

5 NEWS UPDATE: Dozens of Tires Slashed in Clarksburg Neighborhood
Written by Nicole Porter
Last updated on December 26, 2012 @ 7:05PM
Created on December 26, 2012 @ 1:55PM
Clarksburg Police are investigating a vandalism string from overnight that left dozens of families with cars they couldn't drive. Around 4 a.m. Wednesday, the first call came in that tires were slashed along Haymond Highway in the Broad Oaks area.
It wasn't welcome news for many, especially this close to Christmas. Now they're left with wondering how they're going to pay to get their tires repaired. One man said he's already pinching pennies and this is just another thing he has to worry about. he plans on getting a police report and seeing if his insurance will cover the damage.
"I don't even know what to say. It's just a shame that people have to act like that. They're new tires. I just put them on about a month ago. I don't have extra money, I don't have enough money the way it is. I don't know what I'm going to do, it's the only vehicle I have," said Terry Losh, who woke up to find his tires slashed.

The Minnesota Twins sent a trio of All-Stars (Joe Mauer, Joe Nathan, and Justin Morneau) to the 79th Annual All-Star Game and Home Run Derby. It turned out to be perhaps the greatest representation of the Twins in All-Star Game history:
-Joe Mauer: Played a rather small role, but caught the first five innings and collected one infield single and one walk at the plate.
-Joe Nathan: Pitched a 1-2-3 seventh inning for Terry Francona's AL stars.
-Justin Morneau: Won the Home Run Derby, went 2-4 in the All-Star game, and scored the winning run of the contest by barely beating a throw from right field while tagging from third.
Considering that the Twins are usually a non-factor in the midsummer classic, this game was a remarkable occurrence and will hopefully energize the team in the coming weeks and months.
The Twins are off on Thursday and kick off the unofficial second half of the season against Texas at the Dome on Friday night.

Case Study - Acquisition of Big Faceless Report Generator
Michael Clayton
Columbia University
Department of Chemistry
212 854 8575
The department of chemistry has hosted the National Science Foundation's Research Experience (NSFRE) for Undergraduates in Chemistry for 20 years. In that time the application process has gone from totally paper to a partial web application. Our requirements were to find a software solution that could:
The Application
The entry process for the NSFRE involves accepting applicants personal and academic information via the web - applicants provide information such as name, date of birth, research interests and more. Once applicant data is received and stored in a Database, we need to publish that data in a printable format. As our staff are very familiar with Adobe Acrobat Portable Document Format the Big Faceless Report Generator seemed a logical fit with our needs. The Report Generator allows us to print applicant information for acceptance Committee review, and we'll be using the application to generate graphs to analyse the demographic breakdown of our applicants.
I was recommended the Big Faceless products and found implementing the software straightforward. To date the Big Faceless Report Generator has filled our requirements.
