The Savannah River Site is taking on the war on terror. They broke ground Friday for a Mixed Oxide Fuel plant at the site. The only catch, MOX isn't definitely coming yet. News 12 is on your side with the benefits of landing MOX and why it isn't a done deal.
The MOX facility will turn large quantities of the United States' weapon-grade plutonium into energy. But the US and Russia have an agreement, they'll destroy their plutonium together. SRS was waiting on Russia. But the two countries came to an agreement last month and now SRS is waiting on funding. But that's not stopping the project.
They're digging up dirt to prove a point. Leaders from South Carolina and Georgia put on a big show Friday, and they admit it.
"The commitment is there and we're gonna show it," said Rep. Gresham Barrett.
Friday's groundbreaking was to show the world local and national leaders are working hard to make MOX happen. The US worked out an agreement with Russia, but the $336 million needed in next year's energy budget isn't there yet. Senator Jim DeMint says it will be.
"Now all the pieces are in place and I think the funds are going to be available," DeMint said.
Because Russia drug its feet, MOX is already a few years behind its 2010 timeline. Delays led to a lawsuit against the Department of Energy by the Aiken County Council. Councilman Chuck Smith isn't allowed to talk about the suit, but says today's event is hopeful.
"There certainly have been a number of questions along the way and setbacks. This is an important move forward," Smith said.
A sign MOX will end up in the budget, President Bush and his administration sent word of their support Friday. The National Nuclear Security Administrator Ambassador Linton Brooks came on behalf of the Bush administration.
"I'm absolutely convinced that sometime in the future you'll be turning on your lights and be seeing by the light of former nuclear weapons," Brooks said.
We see everyone from the president to Senator DeMint fighting for MOX. But they're also fighting at the local level. Last week some of Aiken County's councilmen were in Washington trying to make this happen.
The construction of MOX will provide 1,000 jobs and once it's done it will provide 400 permanent jobs.

Hilary DuffActor / Singer
Born: 28 September 1987
Birthplace: Houston, Texas
Best known as: TV's Lizzie McGuire
Hilary Duff's acting and singing career took off in 2003 with appearances in three movies and a Top 40 hit, "So Yesterday" (from her debut solo album, Metamorphosis). Duff was already a star by way of the title role in the successful television series Lizzie McGuire (2001-03) on the Disney Channel. After filming The Lizzie McGuire Movie (2003), she left the TV show for a career on the big screen, and her busy year included the releases of Agent Cody Banks (with Frankie Muniz) and Cheaper By The Dozen (with Steve Martin), as well as the production of A Cinderella Story (with Chad Michael Murray as her Prince Charming) and Raise Your Voice, both in 2004. She released her second album, Hilary Duff in 2004, and in 2005 released Most Wanted, a collection of hits and remixes. Her other film credits include Cheaper by the Dozen 2 (2005), Material Girls (2006, with Hilary's older sister, Haylie Duff), and What Goes Up (2009). In 2009 she also began a recurring role on the TV series Gossip Girl. Hilary Duff married hockey player Mike Comrie on 14 August 2010.

Project Number: 8042-32000-092-00
Start Date: Oct 01, 2011
End Date: Sep 30, 2016
To evaluate the genotypic and biologic basis of susceptibility to experimentally induced mastitis by Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria (Objective 1) we will: 1) evaluate the response of dairy cows with divergent estimated breeding value for somatic cell score, and presumptive differences in mastitis susceptibility and/or responsiveness, to experimental challenge with Gram-negative bacteria; 2) evaluate the mastitis susceptibility of cows that differ with regard to single nucleotide polymorphisms in proinflammatory cytokine promoters, which influence the innate immune response. To determine the relationship between mastitis and nitro-oxidative stress and to further develop innovative alternatives to reduce tissue damage (Objective 2) we will focus on the relationship between oxygen-nitrogen adducts that are generated to combat invading pathogens and damage to mammary tissue, as reflected by increased protein nitration, and develop targeted biochemical interventions to reduce generation of nitrated proteins. We will: 1) evaluate the extent of protein nitration in mammary glands of control and experimentally infected mastitic cows; 2) evaluate the capacity of ' - and d -tocopherols to limit protein nitration during experimentally-induced mastitis by virtue of their ability to neutralize oxygen-nitrogen adducts. To develop strategies for modulating somatic stem cells to promote the replacement of mammary epithelial cells damaged by mastitis (Objective 3) we will: 1) evaluate the ability of xanthosine to promote the expansion of mammary stem cells and study the genomic response to xanthosine treatment in order to uncover critical regulatory pathways and stem cell modulators; 2) evaluate potential markers for bovine mammary stem cells that we identified in previous transcriptome analyses (This will facilitate future mammary stem cell research); 3) Evaluate the ability of regulators of the p53 pathway, or other stem cell stimuli, to promote repair of mammary tissue that is damaged by mastitis.

Yeah that show was the best hip hop show that I have been to in a long time. Even though the sound sucked I had a great time. Well mybe a little better if all the tall folks stop cutting up in front of me and jumping up and down like horny 13 year old girls. Beside that I think the show was "platinum gold".
Thanks Sage come back to Cali soon.

Sage's performance was good, I brought some friends that had never been to a hip hop show and they had a lot of fun. Alias was cool, overall a good show although I liked the last show in san francisco better. Shalem is missed, not to say I didn't like DJ Sage with the Cd player.

Email: firstname.lastname@example.com
Thank you for your interest in the Department of Otolaryngology – Head and Neck Surgery at University of Iowa Hospitals and Clinics. The Department of Otolaryngology is among the oldest in the United States (founded in 1922) and one of the most comprehensive in the world. It is situated in one of the largest university-owned teaching hospital in the country. U.S. News & World Report has ranked this department among the top otolaryngology programs in the United States for the past 15 years.
Our residency program follows a structured, progressive curriculum that focuses on consistency and continuity in patient care. Utilizing a team approach, residents are matched with faculty for specific rotations in each specialty area throughout the course of each year. This assures that residents will follow the same patients from their first clinical consultation through surgery and management. Our department offers five areas of clinical specialty:
University of Iowa Hospitals and Clinics also offers a General Surgery internship year at our institution, which allows interns a two-month rotation through otolaryngology in addition to their other scheduled rotations. This is a departure from traditional internships, which deny significant contact with specialties during the internship year.
A rounded education is maintained through weekly didactic sessions including, temporal bone lab, tumor board, grand rounds, resident-run didactics using Otolaryngology COCHLIAS question bank and the cleft palate and craniofacial clinical conference. Residents will also benefit from several continuing education courses throughout their residency including head and neck course, sinus course and basic science course.
Our goals are to develop your training in terms of total patient care and provide you with the knowledge to confidently diagnose and treat diseases of the head and neck, to imbue a sense of critical thinking and excellent judgment, and to hone your skills as an investigator and a scholar into the growing body of medical literature.

While both skeins were the same dye lot, one was wildly colorful and beautiful and the other was dead and ugly. Sadly, I cannot use them together as planned and I'm very disappointed.I realize Noro varies from skein to skein even in the same dye lot, but I wish the person selecting them had matched them better.

This is a nice yarn and knits up very quickly. The only irritant is that is twists up a bit, but is not a deciding factor against it. It is very soft and the colors are gorgeous.

I am using this yarn to knit a felted bag. It is deliciously soft and bulky and easy to knit using size 10 needles. I'm using a mix of Fall colors which are lovely. I haven't felted it, but it's almost completed and is looking great!
I love Noro

Have bought this yarn frequently and am never disappointed. Takes very little to felt it and have made brimmed hats,purses and various electronic product covers for sales. Love the combinations of colors. Twisting is quite manageable.

Get Creative — On Demand
When it comes to innovation, somewhere the world has gone terribly wrong. "The accepted view of creativity is you have to go crazy," says Jacob Goldenberg, a marketing professor at Columbia Business School and the Hebrew University of Jerusalem, and coauthor of "Inside the Box...A Proven System of Creativity for Breakthrough Results" (2013, Simon & Schuster). In fact, if you stay within the familiar world — rather than brainstorm 'outside the box' — he promised, "you will have much better success."
What's more, rather than an extraordinary gift that you're born with, creativity can be learned, just like other skills, according to coauthor Drew Boyd, a professor at the University of Cincinnati. "Without realizing it, over thousands of years people have developed patterns to guide them to creativity," he said. "Our approach lets people extract the core focus of a situation and become creative on demand," he added.
The five techniques to innovation, each practiced "inside the box," are:
- Subtraction. The inventor examines the list of components and removes something that was previously thought essential. Discount airlines subtracted frills. ATMs are banks without the employees or buildings.
- Division. This approach is subtraction taken a step farther. Once the component is removed, it's simply placed somewhere else — within the "box" or the immediate environment, but outside the device. TV controls that were divided from the console gave us the remote control. Thumb drives transferred data storage from a PC to a pocket device.
- Multiplication. Here, innovators duplicate a component of the original but change it in some way. Additional wheels on bicycles result in training wheels. "Picture-in-picture" televisions allow sports fans to follow two games simultaneously.
- Task unification. This technique brings together two (or more) tasks previously thought unrelated. Think Odor-Eater socks meant to keep feet warm and deodorize at the same time, or lotions that moisturize and add sunscreen.
- Attribute dependency. This method involves a trigger that allows traits previously thought unrelated to correlate — as one thing changes, something else changes. For example, some variable windshield wipers alter their speed as the amount of rain changes. Transition sunglasses darken or lighten depending upon the amount of brightness.
In each of these cases, creativity began with something that the innovator was familiar with. And changes were made "inside the box," or at least in the immediate neighborhood.
Brick Walls to Creativity
One of the biggest barriers to creativity is what the authors call "fixedness," or the tendency to see objects or processes only in a traditional way. Boyd and Goldenberg urge innovators to play the "what if" game with components that one assumes are essential. When Apple stripped down the MP3 player to its basics, it created the iPod. Procter & Gamble took the detergent out of detergents, leaving only perfume and binders, giving the world Fabreze.
Contradictions represent another barrier to creativity, but one that the authors say can be a true pathway to innovation. A contradiction is a situation where two ideas are connected yet directly opposed. For example, during the Spanish Civil War, the Republicans waited out a long siege in a monastery, relying on airdrops of food, ammunition, and medicine for sustenance. But eventually the Republican forces ran out of parachutes, threatening their lifeline. The contradiction: the requirement of parachutes to deliver supplies and the lack of parachutes.
The ingenious solution: The pilots began attaching supplies to live turkeys. When dropped out of the plane, the birds flapped their wings, slowing their descent and ensuring safe delivery of their supplies — as well as fresh turkey meat.
Boyd and Goldenberg insist that their methods work with all kinds of processes, from training sessions to creative writing and music composition and performance. "We've taught the method to third graders and children with cognitive disabilities as well as corporate executives," says Boyd. "You can apply the technique to anything that can be broken into components."
Added Goldenberg: "We've seen the reaction so many times. At first people find 'thinking inside the box' counterintuitive. Then they say: 'I get it! Why am I just finding out about this now?'"

VAIL - On Saturday, at Sonnenalp's feature restaurant, Ludwig's, guests will have the opportunity to join Sonnenalp's Head Sommelier Jarrett Quint and Epoch Estate Wines proprietors Bill and Liz Armstrong for an intimate wine pairing dinner.
"We are excited to continue our signature wine dinners with this incredible winery out of the Paso Robles area," said Quint. "Once again, Executive Chef Steve Topple created an enticing menu to complement each specialty wine that will be introduced that night."
Epoch was founded in 2004 and has quickly developed a big reputation for small production, hand-crafted, artisanal wines with abundant personalities. The wines are made with minimal intervention in the winery with fruit from meticulously farmed, , rocky, hillside vineyards.
"Our philosophy is simple, although not necessarily easy to implement: to make wines that are delicious and complex, seriously fun to drink, interestingly iconoclastic, seductively hedonistic, thought provoking and hopefully, most importantly, memory making," said Bill Armstrong, owner of Epoch.
The menu pairing includes: Hamachi sashimi with pineapple salsa and crispy wonton paired with 2011 "Epoch White"; warm duck confit apple tower and black cherry compote paired with 2010 "Block B"; smoked goose breast with mushroom pancake and spiced cranberry fig sauce paired with 2009 "Authenticity"; poached Colorado lamb loin, butternut squash potato rosti and thyme red wine sauce paired with a 2010 "Estate Blend." Finally, for dessert, warm Tahitian vanilla bread pudding with fresh strawberry soup and toffee bourbon gelato paired with 2010 "Veracity."
The Epoch wine dinner takes place this Saturday, beginning at 6:30 p.m. with a reception followed by dinner at 7 p.m. The dinner is $95 per person (tax and gratuity are not included). Reservations can be made by contacting the concierge's desk at 970-479-5429.

OPTrust Opens Sydney Office; Eyes Infrastructure, Private Equity
By Gillian Tan
Canada's OPSEU Pension Trust, or OPTrust, which has 14.7 billion Canadian dollars under management (US$14.3 billion), has opened an office in Sydney, Australia, to focus on infrastructure and private equity investments across Asia.
The pension fund has relocated managing director Stan Kolenc and portfolio manager Morgan McCormick to Sydney from London, the firm's only other office outside Canada.
"Sydney made sense for us, because we expect most of our Asian infrastructure investments to be in Australia and New Zealand," said Mr. Kolenc in an interview Friday. "In private equity, we'll target equity investments of between A$20 million and A$75 million, while in infrastructure, our targeted equity check is between A$50 million and A$250 million."
Before opening its Australian office, OPTrust made investments including a stake in Victoria state-based soil treatment facility developer Renex Group, alongside Macquarie Group and funds managed by Cleantech Ventures. It also owns stakes in Wiggins Island Coal Export Terminal in Queensland state and a coal terminal in Newcastle, in New South Wales state.
OPTrust's infrastructure and private equity portfolios have the responsibility of investing 30% of the fund's total assets under management, according to its website–40% of that is to be invested in Europe, 40% in North America, and the remaining 20%, into developed Asia, including Australia.
In 2012, the infrastructure portfolio rose 23.7%, beating its benchmark return of 5% over the nation's consumer price index, and has delivered an annual average return of 19.2%. Its private equity portfolio, which includes allocating capital to existing private equity funds, or participating directly in buyouts and special situations, rose 20.5% in 2012, buoyed by the sale of the stakes in information services provider Data Explorers Group and health-and-beauty retailer Alliance Boots.
OPTrust's entry into Australia comes as other infrastructure investors build a domestic presence, attracted to the continuous level of deal flow as state governments seek to sell assets to plug budget deficits.
Borealis Infrastructure, a unit of the C$62 billion pension fund Ontario Municipal Employees Retirement System, has recently opened an office in Sydney, while Morgan Stanley Infrastructure Partners, which manages a US$4 billion global infrastructure fund, is establishing a presence in Melbourne.

|Topic Review (Newest First)
DK this thread is as to you what a blank page was to Shakespeare.
No line nor dot is wasted when it is laid with passion, intelligence and wit.
A bit of humor never killed a Danish royal family either.
OOp. Yeah, it's been so long that I by accident just found my notification for this post in my server spam folder!
DK's been insanely busy doing insane projects... just none of them shrimp related.
If ya wanna know about those projects, lemme know. I hate to clog up my thread with non-shrimp stuff if nobody cares!
PS I now have two tanks pretty full of Mermaids. I guess the trick is to totally ignore them, then they get real bizzy partyin'.
|DK you there? This cave is awful quiet lately.
This looks like a good time for me to monitor this thread closely.
I have heard rumors to temp control affecting spawns, but not with shrimps so interested.
I don't think I have come across anyone who intentionally keeps their shrimp up in the 82 degree region. Most people I know aim for the mid to low seventies, and one breeder I have seen in person keeps his tanks closer to 68 whenever he can, with temporary gradual heat spikes.
I'm sorry about Angus. The difficult part about having pets is that we love them so much, but they leave us too soon.
A question came up on another board, and I wonder if you might know the answer. There was a discussion about the right temperature for neos to be kept, and that spawned 2 other questions! If the temp is warm, say about 82 degrees, does this affect the sex of baby shrimp? Also, do the shrimp (in general) benefit from a warm temp (82ish) or a cooler temp (72ish)? From what I understand the shrimp grow faster but have shorter lives at higher temps. They apparently live longer at cooler temps but grow to maturity slower? Folks claim that they breed like rabbits no matter what the temperature! LOL
I understand that the 'right' temperature to keep the shrimp at can be open to interpretation; the question that I am really curious about is the affect of temperature on the sex of baby shrimp. If you have any experience that you would be willing to share I would love to hear about it!
Dk, have you ever put leeks into bacon grease for a stir fry?
On of my favorites, is leeky bacon.
Cook a pound of preferred bacon, chop to size 2 whole leek stalks, separate into bowl, toss pre steamed or boiled rice into greasy pan, brown to flavor, generously dousing with soy sauce and or other flavors, add 2 whisked eggs on high heat, add bacon and leeks back into pan, toss and serve.
As for shrimpies, The time approaches for me to perhaps invest in some of DK's shrimps, as I will soon have my 110 community tank setup and cycled in anticipation of the raise that will allow a healthy population of shrimpettes and shrimpies.
I need to break the habit of only viewing this site on my phone as it is quite limiting compared to a laptop for this view of the critters contained herein.
DK's latest
Ennyone else out there LOVE stir-fry and wish they could make GOOD stir-fry at home? SEND DK YER RECIPES. SEND. SEND.
DK's latest is just this project. Here is the lunch she made over her smokin' hot stir fry pan:
These are handfuls of Costco veggies tossed into her new technology to sear and slightly carbonize in a mix of peanut and sesame oil (see pea pod in lower left corner - how it's sligtly carbonized from the smokin' searing heat?). Then mixed into a delightful cheater lazy bones sauce of a dollop of Costco organic peanut butter, spash of oyster sauce, splash of Rooster sauce (Sriracha), handful of minced ginger root, and splash of soy sauce.
Oh boy. Bliss. And this is only the maiden trial of her new setup. It will get exponentially better as she learns it.
She asked for this near-commercial induction cooker (a true commercial unit would be 220 volt but this one is 110 so she can use it as a homeowner) for her birthday. Don't let the price or ugly looks fool ya. This thing is a one knob easy to clean jet fueled workhorse on the cheap. Remember: DK likes industrial strenght but she also likes cheap. Score for both.
Recently, she treated herself to this MONSTER induction ready clad pan which is basically ten cents on the dollar for
Marry the burner to the pot, and you have a PORTABLE stir fry setup. The beauty of which is she takes it out on the back porch and there is NO GREASE MIST MESS TO CLEAN UP afterward. Park that baby on the side wing of the gas grill and you are good to go.
The burner is surprisingly light weight and stows away easily on her 15 buck Costco pull out cabinet shelf. Gotta love Costco.
So, here's the drill: (this is important for lah-zhee folks, this part)
And with that, she now goes off to open the box with her new piece of industrial strength equipment...
Stay tuned. The Industrial Strength Equipment does actually have to do with shrimp.

She's doing fine.
The mermaids have populated the second tank to where both tanks have the same populations, now!
She's just ordered some industrial equipment for her latest venture - pics when it arrives.
Unfortunately, Angus the German went over the rainbow bridge recently, so that's a sad time.

How goes it? Hoping to be on the site more frequently in the near future.
Missed so much here from working haha.
About to start a new job/old job and buy myself back into the hobby big time.
So... ja. Found 'em.
Yesterday, after other stuff, DK forced herself to study the abductee tank, because those microbabies were due, and overdue.
She did find them! 2-3 mm size in there.
A couple pictures from the ones she saw up on the front glass.
As you can see, the glasses have slimed over again, bad for taking pictures.
But great for Mermaids, as they pretty much dine on slime.
Never a dull moment, here
Tolja there would be jack hammering.
Also... SOMEBODY might have fallen through the ceiling the other day. Just sayin'. It WASN'T DK. Nobody was (seriously) injured, and now there is a LOT more bathroom ventilation, even on top of the Mother-Of-All-Ventilation-Fans that DK and Other Geek just installed.
We've added to our collection of ceiling drywall holes. First there was the chunk in the kitchen ceiling. Next the den, where the yellow jackets' MONSTROUS nest in the bay roof ate completely through the drywall, leaving only a paper skin between house inhabitants and thousands of venomous stingers, this summer. And now, we add the lovely statement of bathroom ventilation.
Drywall work is in our future. But first, we install the second Mother-Of-All-Bathroom-Fans, and make sure there aren't any MORE holes in the ceiling.
Equipment malfunctions, in the Shrimporium.
First, it was a light timer gone bad.
The good news is after a prolonged period of darkness, where the Mermaids REALLY came out to graze, DK discovered more of the batch of youth in the Abductee tank than she had ever seen. Up until then, she had only ever seen one of that batch at any given time, which led her to wonder if there were what she calls "capture" issues in that tank. "Capture" to her means, if you have a batch of ten babies hatched, how many survive to grow into juvies, what is the "capture" rate of that batch.
So the capture rate was greater than she had seen, fortunately.
Next, in the original Mermaid tank, a heat controller went out. So DK had to throw in an alternate heater. It's still a temp solution in there, but both Mermaid tanks are doing well. She hasn't seen the microbabies from the new batch of knocked up females in the Abductee tank, yet.
Other than that, DK has barely looked at the Shrimporium for weeks, bizzy doing - ahem - other things.
More Mermaid Bah-Beeze shots from yesterday
Pictures aren't award winning, but bah-beeze are cute!
Behind the slimy glass, the tank is actually crawling with bah-beeze.
DK forced herself to clean the Mermaid glass
Now that the Water Factory is on re-set with the corrected recipe, DK expects a lotta action coming up.
It takes about 2 weeks transition to correct water in the tanks following a water factory adjustment, due to the gradual changeover.
But often times, shrimp will "read" the water conditions changing TOWARD more correct water, and respond. DK is ever fascinated how shrimp bodies "read" water chemistry and get in gear, even before water conditions are optimized. If water has been non-optimal, and the ion ratios begin to move TOWARD breeding ratios, shrimp will often jump the gun and molt, so when water conditions are ripe, they are ahead of the curve to drop young in survivable water.
Ennnyway, DK digresses.
She knew her calcium ratios were off, due to her tank metrics. When ratios are correct for a species, the population shows a pyramidal structure, with more tinies at the base, and a relative few full adults at the peak. When breeding conditions are so-so, you see an even spread. When conditions aren't breeding conditions, you see only older juvies and adults, finishing out growth from last time the water was good for breeding.
So, she had been watching metrics in the Mermaid tank, behind slimy glass, and hadn't seen much of anything except adults. She has been juggling some technical problems getting the pH stabilized in there, and when she juggles pH, it throws her calcium ratio, because pH is adjusted via mag carbonate in that tank, and when DK needs higher pH, she dials in higher mag carbonate, which decreases her calcium to mag ratio.
She thought the water was more messed up than it turned out to be. She knew it was improving, based on berried females, but she didn't see babies much, until the other day when she posted.
So she finally decided to get off her duff and clean the glass in that tank to see what was going on in there.
Here's a lesson learned: just 'cause you can't see it doesn't mean it isn't there.
She thot she could see well enough across the slime-glass to determine that there were almost no babies in there.
But she just couldn't see them.
Here's a shot taken this morning in the front couple inches of the tank. That tank has already started to ramp up. It's not pyramidal yet, but headed that way, hopefully.
One reason she believed there weren't going to be many babies is that one of her biological indicators she uses - pond snails - were tracking high. When pond snail populations spike, it often means chloride levels have fallen, because when chloride levels reach a certain level, it inhibits pond snail breeding and growth.
All of her tanks were showing too many pond snails, so DK knew her chloride levels were dipping, which is an indicator that calcium levels are too low, as calcium tracks with chloride in her system.
The good news is that things are correcting, and as of this morning, there is a good indicator things are doing ok and heading toward better breeding conditions.
These are about 6 mm bah-beez (except the tiny one upper left), and DK couldn't see them across the slime-glass!
Not sure what this has to do with shrimp...YET
So, delayed by the flu, DK had some makin' up to do. Her weather window was runnin' out.
Oh, DK knows what this has do do with shrimp, now. Doing this forced her to replenish the shrimp juice vats. Replenishing the juice vats forced her to get off her duff and find where the bum calculation was hidden.
So Tuesday, DK had slated to finally put the finish coat on her hardwood floors. She was delayed in this due to the flu. She needed to do this in a weather window with no rain forecast and temps below 85 day and above 55 nights. She needed a 3 day window.
Why? Because she was a-gonna apply an oil-based commercial/gymnasium grade polyurethane top coat to her previously re-conditioned floors. She don't mess around.
In the process of doing this, she was a-gonna fix the slip sliding problem her Germans were having on the hardwood, causing them to run claws extended like cartoons, which was doing a number on her floor finish.
So, DK decided she was a-gonna integrate polymer micro beads into the "hand-rubbed" floor finish, to give it a permanently non-slip finish. Oh yeah. She don't mess around.
But let's back up. In order to apply this final coat, she needed to clear all the furniture - including the half ton 1896 upright grand piano made from Old Wood beams in the sound board. Then, she needed to screen the re-condition coat throughout for adhesion. Then, she need to de-dust, using the central vac. Then, she needed to design and install a catwalk so that once the floor coat was applied, we could get to the stairs without walking on the floor. Once the coating was applied, a large swathe of the house would be unavailable during curing time.
This included easy travel down into the Shrimporium.
Shrimp juice vats were nearly empty, and DK had to assume the worst that the dry time might be 3 days and she might for some reason not be able to get down there.
So she had to replenish the vats.
This FORCED her to finally go through months of calculations to find the flaw in her last batch of vats. She KNEW her calcium levels had dropped relative to her mag levels because the tank populations were telling her this with her metrics. So she KNEW she had made a screw-up in her last vats. She had adjusted her machinery to compensate, but the compensation wasn't in the sweet spot and the real goal is always to fix the underlying problem, yes?
Well, to make a long story short, she found her mis-calculation, had to back calculate several vat batches of concentrations, come up with her target, and re-mix the new vats.
This is not as simple as it sounds.
Because when she adds to the vats, there is always some vat juice still in there, at whatever concentration. So when she adds the new batches of vat juice, which she KNOWS the concentration, it blends with the remaining vat juice to make the new, overall vat concentration.
She knew when the tanks were last in their sweet spot, last January or so. SO she had to back calculate, based on discovery of her mistake, what the concentrations were THEN, and then forward calculate where the vat concentration ended up, and formulate the new recipe to correct the OVERALL new vat concentration to the goal.
Your eyes are probably glazed over.
So, BEFORE she could apply the floor top coat, she had to do all this, make the new vat juice, and re-load the system settings and test them, to ensure they weren't pumping death into the Shrimporium tanks for three days while her floors cured.
She is delighted to report the floors are done and nearly cured, and the tanks are already showing signs of heading back toward sweet-spot correctness.
So, today's pictures aren't shrimp, although shrimp are tied into the floor story.
Below, we see a shot of the film DK applied with the micro beads embedded. She used a silicone spatula to keep the solution stirred each application, and when done the leftover stuff coated the spatula and dried. Then, DK peeled a layer off and took a shot with the super-macro function of her camera, because she is a geek/nerd and just had to see it, and then share it.
And a shot of the catwalk she designed, from her motorcycle ramp, six bucks of cheapo 2x3s, and a scaffolding plank. With this setup, the inhabitants were able to avoid the hardwood yet access the upstairs, key.
And, the finished -- FINISHED -- floor. Finally. Lovely "hand-rubbed" finish (low sheen) with embedded micro-beads.
The Germans can't believe their good fortune, that they don't slip all over the floor anymore.
Life is good.
BECAUSE OF this floor finish, DK was forced to correct her tanks. This means in about a month, lotsa shrimp baby pictures for all y'all.
Stay tuned...

I am trying to design and develop a DXF importer using C++. I have gone through the DXF references starting from version 2000 onwards. There are four things which have put the development on hold for me right now.
1) Handles for each entity. Are they really important? If so, then how are they related to other entities?
2) Entities such as ARC, POLYLINE, TEXT etc occurs in BLOCKS section and in ENTITIES section. What difference does these two sections make? Why not all the entities are placed in ENTITIES section?
3) What is INSERT entity? How does this work? Does it have any visualization (as it contains insertion point, scale and rotation factors)? If so, how is it represented graphically? As a point (as it contains only one point )?
4) I see that some points are in OCS and some are in WCS. How do I convert OCS to WCS? For this point I did some google research and didn't get much help, as most of them use auto-lisp for this and I am using C++.
Kindly learned people guide me, by clarifying these doubts.
Thanks in advance

The battle of the bulge. It's nothing new. Millions of Americans fight it, or try to, every day. Thirty four percent of adults in the United States are obese; the same amount are overweight.
Charles Dumas used to be, but not anymore.
"I'd been having challenges with weight gain for a number of years, 15 years," Dumas says.
That is, until he and his wife tried the HCG Diet during the summer of 2009. Dumas is now 60 lbs. lighter.
"It's the only thing that worked for me," he says.
HCG, which stands for Human Chorionic Gonadotropin, is a hormone women produce when they are pregnant. It's now being used for weight loss.
Dr. John Wycoff at the Wycoff Wellness Center in East Lansing is one of the only physicians in mid-Michigan who offers the HCG Rapid Weight Loss Diet.
"We've treated well over 300 patients here at the Wycoff Wellness Center with great success," Dr. Wycoff says.
Vicki Funnell is one of them. She says she tried everything to lose weight, but nothing worked until HCG.
"Best thing I ever did," Funnell says. "I was like 148 [lbs.] and climbing, and now I'm down to 120, 122."
Dr. Wycoff's program, like many used by physicians at weight loss clinics and health spas across the country, includes a dose of HCG, either by injection or a drop under the tongue, coupled with a very low calorie diet. Exercise is encouraged but not required.
"The HCG is taking the stored fat, the fat that you don't want, and converting that into calories so your body feels like you're getting around 2500-3000 calories per day," Wycoff says.
But you're only consuming about 500 calories.
Here's what you can eat on the HCG Very Low Calorie Diet:
--Breakfast is green tea, black coffee and water only.
--Lunch is 3.5 oz. of protein (beef, veal, chicken or fish), two cups of vegetables like spinach, and fruit like strawberries.
--Dinner is the same as lunch, but with differnt protein, vegetables and fruit.
You also need to drink three quarts to a gallon of filtered water every day. That's 16 eight oz. glasses.
"It's a very, very, very restrictive, probably pushing a starvation-type, diet," says Emily Ostrowski, a registered dietitian at Sparrow Health System.
Ostrowski has concerns about the HCG diet.
While the hormone is approved by the Food and Drug Administration for fertility, it is not approved by the FDA for weight loss.
"There is a lot we need to see about it," Ostrowksi explains. "And I think people need to be aware that these quick fixes are not always what they seem to be."
She says it's not necessarily the HCG that's causing the weight loss, but the limited caloric intake and the exercise.
"It's not surprising that people are losing weight that fast, because the diet is so low in calories that you're going to lose the fluid, fat and, most likely, also some protein," she says.
Ostrowski worries the diet can throw off patients' metabolisms once they're off the program, leading to weight gain at the end of the diet. That wasn't the case for Dumas, but still, he says if you're looking for a miracle diet, you're not going to find it in HCG.
"It's not a quick fix in that you can do it for a couple weeks and then go back to the way you were," Dumas says. "No, after three months of eating healthy and changing your lifestyle and your habits, it sticks with you."
The HCG Diet lasts either 23 or 46 days, depending on how much weight you want to lose.
Dr. Wycoff's program costs $400.
It is important that anyone on the diet consult with a physician prior to beginning the program.
Dr. Wycoff says side effects like headache, nausea, hair loss, and acne can occur during the HCG rapid weight loss diet.
You can find HCG on the Internet, but it's a very low dose and not the prescription strength doctors use in weight loss programs.

Five arrested after meth lab found in Mayo
Published: Thursday, January 31, 2013 at 8:17 p.m.
Last Modified: Thursday, January 31, 2013 at 8:17 p.m.
Five people were arrested last week after investigators searched a home on Lakewood Lane in Mayo and found evidence of a methamphetamine lab.
Daisy Sarah Pritchard, 19, Crystal Lynn Fuller, 26, Austin Garrett Sisk, 22, Jennifer Michelle Tidwell, 38, and Matthew Edward Carter, 29, all of 181 Lakewood Lane, were charged with trafficking methamphetamine and possession with intent to distribute methamphetamine within 1/2 mile of a school, according to arrest warrants.
An incident report states that investigators searched the home on Jan. 24. They syringes and other drug paraphernalia, and items used to make methamphetamine in the house and trash, including tubing, coffee filters, jars and bottles, batteries and pieces of batteries and numerous packs of cold medicine, according to the report.
Officers searched everyone and found bags of meth in Fuller's and Tidwell's possession. They were charged with possession of methamphetamine, according to warrants.
Tidwell and Sisk remained at the Spartanburg County Detention Facility on Thursday. Tidwell's bond is $8,000; Sisk's is $6,000. Fuller has been released from jail on an $8,000 bond. Carter and Pritchard were released on $6,000 bonds.

The names have been as many as the number of teams that have sat atop the Associated Press' Top 25 poll.
First, it was USC's Matt Barkley.
Then, it was WVU's Geno Smith.
Now, Texas A & M's Johnny 'Football' Manziel.
But, in this writer's humble opinion, the name no one seems to be speaking about as the nation's top football player and the favorite to win the Heisman Trophy should be the Mountaineers' Tavon Austin.
Yes, each and every one of the aforementioned athletes would be deserving of being selected as the top collegiate football player in the country. Those names and many, many more.
If fact the voting this year may very well be the closest in the history of the coveted award.
Just as deserving as those above, names like Notre Dame's Manti Te'o, The Ohio State University's Braxton Miller, Collin Klein from Kansas State, Landry Jones from Oklahoma, Alabama's A.J. McCarron and Oregon's Kenjon Barner are just as likely to be invited to the award ceremony next month in New York City.
Each player has credentials worthy of taking home the Heisman, so why WVU's Austin?
Simple. There is not a player that I have watched that fans from both competing teams hold their breaths in anticipation for what unbelievable play the diminutive Baltimore native will come up with next.
Whether it be as a receiver, a running back, a punt returner or a kickoff returner, Austin has shown the ability to dazzle defenders and leave opposing coaches wondering why their players can't contain the Mountaineers' standout.
WVU's senior has accomplished the feat while playing in two different conferences-the Big East and the Big 12. He has been near the top or leading in all-purpose yardage for the past two years, was Special Teams Player of the Year in the Big East during WVU's final season in the league and was selected to the Big 12's Preseason honor list before the old gold and blue had played a game in their new home.
It is highly unlikely that WVU's receiver/running back/punt returner/kick returner wins the award. It is also highly unlikely that he will be one of the five athletes invited to New York City for the ceremonial presentation.
That doesn't mean he isn't just as deserving.
The race for the Heisman has become nearly identical as the race for the presidency. Politics, in this case the constant, almost annoying bantering by ESPN and its cast of talking heads/analysts, has made it impossible for any one other than the flavor-of-the-week pick by the experts at the all-sports station, to capture any individual award.
But, if I had a vote, Tavon Austin would be my top choice.
If it is true that absence makes the heart grow fonder, then seeing a Mountaineer team without No. 1 scurrying around the artificial surface at Milan Puskar Stadium will truly be a very, very sad day for fans, who will have one last chance to see Austin perform his magic at home this Saturday when Kansas visits for Senior Day.

Why should you care that kids are getting fatter? Because it is costing you millions of dollars in health care costs,�� because it is a direct reflection of the choices and examples that you make, and because we owe the children in this nation a better future. In this Podcast Episode #24 , I interview Monica Reinagel, host of *The Nutrition Diva's Quick and Dirty Tips Podcast . During *this interview, we talk about the seriousness of the childhood obesity problem, and the fact that kids are dying of "adult" diseases that are intimately tied to junk food, fast food, portion control, and other important nutritional issues. Included in this podcast:

-The underlying nutrition considerations behind this problem.

-How to approach the difficult position of wanting your child to be able to "enjoy" perks like McDonald's and Coca-Cola.

-How children can eat healthy and still enjoy food, with examples of meal decisions, substitutions or changes that parents can make.

-Nutritional choices that parents can make that will positively affect the behavior of their children.

-How young is too young to start making smart diet choices for your kid?

During this podcast, Monica mentions a fantastic resource, the "Real Food for Healthy Kids" book , as well as her website NutritionData.com and her latest book (non-childhood obesity related): "The Inflammation-Free Diet".

Also featured in this podcast:

-A listener Q&A on alternative calcium sources to milk, in which Ben Greenfield reveals the secret vegetable that has more calcium than a glass of milk.

-A special discount code for +the Gymstick portable exercise tool (click here to order with your $10 discount code found at minute 10:25 of the podcast!) ,

LETTER: Be careful where you eat fast food
Published: Thursday, May 9, 2013 at 10:28 a.m.
Last Modified: Thursday, May 9, 2013 at 10:28 a.m.
Dear Editor: I believe that the low scores some of the fast-food places in Tuscaloosa receive are well deserved. If you're like me, you are tired of complaining to the store management only to be told, "We are sorry. Let us send you a couple coupons."
Most of the time you go in these fast-food places and it's not fast food. It's wait-wait-wait and then they don't get your order correct. The places are dirty, paper on the floor, tables need cleaning while staff are on their cellphones. At one salad place, I saw the cook eating in the kitchen. At one burger place, a worker walked behind the cashier and started coughing and went to work.
Any time you can go into a fast-food place and the food from the previous meal is still visible, run and do not eat there. I only have 250 words, but begin reading the inspection results, ask questions, look at the staff's hair and clothes.
Remember: Conflict is inevitable, but combat is optional.

|When Leaving
|More Info

Page 1 of 4
Carjacking is the theft of a vehicle by force or threat of force, and often with the use of a weapon.
Carjackers look for the right opportunity. Generally, they look for drivers slowing down, stopping, or getting in or out of their vehicle. That is why carjacking often occurs in parking lots and garages, at stop lights and signs, and by the side of the road. Beware of Bump-and-Rob tactics.
Why Would Anyone Want to Steal My Vehicle?
- To joy ride or to use it in another crime.
- To dismantle it for parts.
- To change numbers and resell it.
- To ship it out of the country for a very lucrative profit.
Carjackers already have the desire and ability to take your vehicle, all they need is an opportunity!
Generally, thieves prefer to commit their crimes without noise, delay, or being seen. Carjackers are determined to take the car without regard for the occupants.
Prevention Tips When Approaching Your Vehicle
- Do not dawdle; move quickly and confidently with your keys in your hand.
- Be aware of the surrounding area, including any occupied cars, and check to make sure no one is hiding in or under your car.
- Immediately lock the doors, when you get into your vehicle.

Very accurate emulation, but does not alway save my progress in the game. Frequently I will save quit and relaunch the emulator only to find that is has not saved my progress. Very annoying.
I believe that the 'free plugin' to support USB joysticks is still actually shareware⦠The good thing is that once you buy the plugin, it works across the board with all of Bannister's emulators - and they are numerous and all quite good.
This is one of the better SNES emulators out there. It's far better than SNES9x or zSnes since it's aim is to be far more accurate which allows for many games to run as if it were running on a actual SNES / Super Famicon. Only downside is that the specs needed for it is quite high. A+ application!

President Barack Obama this week signed into law legislation by Rep. Jerry McNerney, D-Stockton, that reauthorizes for five years operation of the United States Fire Administration.
The Fire Administration provides grants to local fire departments and also educates the public on fire safety and prevention.
Some Fire Administration funding helps to preserve the jobs of local firefighters that would have otherwise been eliminated during the economic contraction of recent years.
McNerney said in a written news release that in addition to promoting public safety, extending the life of the Fire Administration "will ensure that we preserve and create family-wage jobs in communities across America."
The legislation was originally known as HR6229, and was co-sponsored by McNerney and Rep. Judy Biggert, R-Ill. That bill died in committee over the summer.
Just in the past month, McNerney was successful in asking that the Fire Administration authorization language be inserted into the National Defense Authorization Act. It was the Defense Authorization Act that the president signed Tuesday.
