Washington, D.C.
For Immediate Release
OSHA Trade Release
Dec. 2, 2004
Contact: Bill Wright
Phone: (202) 693-1999
Ergonomics, Hazardous Materials are key elements of the agreement
WASHINGTON -- Ensuring a safer and more healthful workplace for workers in the building service contracting industry is the goal of the Occupational Safety and Health Administration's (OSHA) latest Alliance, signed today.
The Building Service Contractors Association International (BSCAI) formalized an Alliance with OSHA to advance worker safety and health issues, with an added focus on workers with limited English proficiency. Key to the Alliance is the agreement to ensure that BSCAI members and others are armed with information related to reducing injuries and illnesses associated with musculoskeletal disorders, as well as exposure to hazardous materials.
"I'm looking forward to working with BSCAI on this very important Alliance," said OSHA Administrator John Henshaw. "We're fortunate to continue to have an opportunity to work with organizations such as BSCAI that remain committed to assuring safety and health in the workplace. This Alliance will help assure greater protection of thousands of workers in the building service contracting industry."
"BSCAI is proud to be leading the building service contracting industry with this innovative OSHA Alliance," added Carol A. Dean, Executive Vice President of BSCAI. "This Alliance will help to further our joint objective of improving communication with our workers regarding safety issues. We look forward to a collaborative relationship with OSHA in further enhancing our industry's best practices regarding workplace safety, and a constructive and ongoing dialogue with OSHA about many of the unique challenges that face building service contractors."
OSHA and BSCAI agreed to work together to identify available resources and stimulate the development of new training programs and materials related to ergonomics and workplace exposure to hazardous materials. The development of case studies illustrating the business value of safety and health, such as the use of ergonomic tools in the building services industry, is also on tap, as is participation in forums and roundtable discussions on hazardous materials and ergonomic issues.
Both organizations will develop and disseminate information through various media, including OSHA and BSCAI websites and will also look for opportunities to speak, exhibit or appear at educational conferences and trade shows, including BSCAI's Annual Trade Show. The Alliance encourages BSCAI members to participate in the OSHA's cooperative programs such as compliance assistance, Voluntary Protection Programs, Consultation, and the Safety and Health Achievement Recognition Program.
BSCAI is a trade association representing the building service contracting industry and consists of members from more than 2,000 companies. BSCAI's member companies provide cleaning, building maintenance, and other related services to building owners and managers.
Employers are responsible for providing a safe and healthful workplace for their employees. OSHA's role is to assure the safety and health of America's workers by setting and enforcing standards; providing training, outreach, and education; establishing partnerships; and encouraging continual improvement in workplace safety and health.

My father used to say that the most dangerous two words in the English language were "trust me". The problem, he explained, is that they are never spoken by someone who is actually trustworthy. It is the easy come-on of the shyster, the con man, and - unfortunately - the politician.
But it works, for the simple reason that we want to trust someone. Maybe we need to trust someone. Especially in New Jersey, where the evidence of wrong-doing is all around us, we need to believe that our Fairy God Mother sent us just one person who we don't have to watch like a molestor in a Santa suit. But not only New Jersey's history, but pretty much all of political history on record, shows that such desperation is best resisted. No one is above temptation, and so no one should be above suspicion and no one should be beyond the disinfecting light of public scrutiny.
Just one example would be the ongoing debacle that has been the Somerset County Parks Commission. I've never heard an explanation of why the Somerset County Freeholders thought that taking care of recreational facilities was too specialized to take care of themselves, but the creation of an "independent" agency under the Freeholders' supervision quickly deteriorated into a patronage mill and an opportunity for personal enrichment. For example, the Parks Commission paid for a retirement party for Commissioner John Kitchen, whom they promptly rehired at $91,950 a year to manage the county golf courses. It is, however, illegal for the Parks Commission to pay for a retirement party - and it seems odd that they would pay for a retirement party for someone they were about to hire anyway.
You can almost hear the Parks Commission telling the Freeholders, "Trust me." Of course, the Freeholders then told the taxpayers, "Trust me." For their trust, Somerset taxpayers received not one, but two layers of government that functioned badly and against the public interest.
Somewhere you can just see Wayne Bryant nudging Sharpe James and saying, "Why didn't we think of that?" Thanks to Anne Milgram, who has moved quickly as State Attorney General to investigate these abuses (and, closer to home for me, for moving against the crooked judges in Jersey City). After Peter Harvey's much maligned see-no-evil stint as AG under Governor McGreevey, it's nice to see someone who really could care less if it's a Democrat or Republican breaking the law.
Speaking of which, the man with that reputation is now simply saying, "Trust me." Nor is this the first time that Chris Christie has declined to give a straight answer to a simple question. As he moves towards making his gubernatorial candidacy a reality, Christie really does sound more and more like a typical politician - choosing to answer the question he wants to answer rather than the one he was asked.
I don't have anything Mr. Christie on a personal level, but when he says, "Trust me," I have to ask, "Why should I?" No one is above temptation, and so no one should be above suspicion and no one should be beyond the disinfecting light of public scrutiny. Trust me.

STATE COLLEGE -- It's been 16 days since the Penn State Lady Lions last played, a long time to mull their Big Ten quarterfinal upset loss to Ohio State.
There was a week off for spring break on campus, then time watching some men's basketball and practicing some of their own, before learning of their slot for today's NCAA women's basketball tournament first-round game against Wichita State at the Bryce Jordan Center. The game tips at 12:30 on ESPN2.
So those fans who met Maggie Lucas and Talia East at a Harrisburg area rest stop while the two senior players drove home for spring break had two excuse the two for not dwelling further on the past.
"People always mention basketball, and those fans were like, 'What happened in the Big Ten tournament?'" said East. "We were like, 'We put it behind us already, and we're not talking about it anymore. We'll talk about the NCAA tournament.'"
Penn State, the No. 3 seed in this Stanford regional with home first and possibly second-round games today and Tuesday, isn't the only team off since March 7. No. 6 seed Dayton, which meets No. 11 Florida in today's later game, lost the Atlantic-10 final to Fordham. The Gators also lost to Kentucky in their second Southeastern Conference tournament game that day.
No. 14 seed Wichita State is the only team to have played since, as it earned a bid through winning the Missouri Valley Conference championship March 16. These long breaks are created when conferences schedule their men's and women's tournaments on different weeks to avoid overlap. The MVC was the only conference represented here to conduct its men's tournament before its women's tournament.
Fact Box
Background: The No. 3 seed Lady Lions (22-7) won their third consecutive Big Ten regular-season title but lost in the quarterfinals of the Big Ten Tournament, 99-82 to Ohio State. This is also the first time since the 1990s they've been a top three seed in consecutive tournaments.
How they win: Senior guard Maggie Lucas, one of the program's all-time greats, averages 21.4 points per game. Kelly Mazzante and Helen Darling are the school's only other Big Ten Players of the Year. Lucas is part of a veteran starting lineup of four seniors and a junior. The frontcourt of Talia East, Ariel Edwards, and Tori Waldner measure 6-foot-3, 6-3, and 6-5, respectively, and the Lady Lions used their height advantage to a Big Ten-best plus-8.6 rebounding margin.
Why they lose: Ohio State and a late-season loss to Nebraska were the only two in which the team allowed more than 90 points. Lucas is just one of three players averaging double-figures scoring (Edwards at 15.4 ppg and Dara Taylor at 11.7) are the others, so when she's off points can be a problem. Lucas, a 40-percent shooter, has shot 32 percent and averaged 17 points in defeats.
Outlook: Being the highest seed with homecourt advantage should make the Lady Lions the favorite, though they did fail to advance out of the first two rounds here as the highest seed in 2011, when they lost to DePaul in the second round. Penn State is 30-24 all-time in the NCAAs, with a Final Four in 2000.
Background: The No. 14 seed Shockers (26-6) won the Missouri Valley Conference tournament, tying with Indiana State for the regular-season title and beating Drake, 73-49, in the final. Head coach Jody Adams was the starting point guard for Tennessee's 1991 NCAA champion. Second-year assistant Dana Eikenberg played at Penn State under Rene Portland and graduated in 1992.
How they win: Wichita State lost six seniors from last year's MVC title team and first-ever NCAA qualifier, but won 20 straight after losing two early. It rebounded from losing four of five late to win the MVC. The Shockers had a plus-6.4 turnover differential and held opponents to 38 percent shooting this season. "We're going to have to make Penn State uncomfortable, make them take low-percentage 2 and 3-point shots," said Adams. Alex Harden leads the team with 17.1 points per game.
Why they lose: Adams said the late-season slide caused by fatigue created a learning opportunity for both the players and herself. "You go beat people by 20 or 30, it's hard to teach them when they're winning like that... But they got lazy at times and weren't playing with excitement or fire," said Adams. "I got back to coaching them hard. I said here it is, there's a choice, and make it. Then they got back to winning."
Outlook: Penn State, ranked 13th in the women's RPI ratings, is the Shockers' toughest test this year. The only other top 100 teams they played were in November, losses to Oklahoma and St. Joe's.
Background: No. 6 seed Flyers (23-7) were here in 2011 for the NCAAs, losing 75-66 to Penn State in the first round. Senior Cassie Sant is the only player back from that team. This is the seventh straight 20-win season for the team, which finished the regular season ranked 16th in the RPI.
How they win: This is a lineup of balanced scoring, as five players score in double figures and a sixth averages 9.4 ppg. Andrea Hoover leads with 17.2 ppg and shoots 37 percent on 3-pointers. The Flyers rank 13th nationally in scoring at 82 ppg and are 14th in assists with 17 per game.
Why they lose: It hasn't happened much, as the Flyers had 10 and 9-game win streaks this season. Coach Jim Jabir said the 63-51 loss in the Atlantic-10 title game was due to a 48-33 rebounding disadvantage.
Outlook: It's the Flyers fifth consecutive NCAA bid, but none have reached the Sweet 16. They are 2-4 all-time in the NCAA tournament. "I would hope and I believe that no one is satisfied with being here anymore," said Jabir. "That was the expectation. We arrived there, but now we'll be disappointed if we don't at least have a chance of getting through the weekend and playing another."
Background: The No. 11 seed Gators (19-12) went 9-9 in the SEC, which had the highest conference RPI in the nation. They have just nine players on the roster and spent much of the season with just seven due to injuries. This is coach Amanda Butler's third NCAA appearance in 7 seasons at the school. The Gators swept Kentucky, a No. 3 seed in the Notre Dame regional, before falling to the Wildcats in the SEC tournament.
How they win: The Gators shoot reasonably well at 45 percent, but with just a nine-player roster there's little room for error. "They've worked hard on chemistry and the concepts of loyalty, trust and commitment," said Butler. "All the intangibles, you don't go through a season like we have and not experience our success without them."
Why they lose: One issue with the small roster is small players. No Gator is taller than 6 feet, and they're outrebounded 40-36 on average per game. "We never focused on what we weren't, and our leadership did a great job in that smaller is better," said Butler. "We're quicker, faster, and more versatile. I have to give them credit, they never let it be a factor. It's a great storyline, but not what our team was dwelling on at all."
Outlook: The Gators lack the depth Dayton owns, but facing the likes of NCAA No. 1 seeds Tennessee, South Carolina, and the rest of the SEC should have them toughened for anyone they'll see this week.
By BEN BRIGANDI
Added break time is an advantage or a disadvantage, said Wichita State coach Jody Adams, depending on what each team needs. Her Shockers lost four of five late in the season because they were "tired" and needed a little tough love and rest before the postseason.
"I wish we'd have finished earlier, but I don't want two weeks off without competition," said Adams. "You love to have it to mend the bodies and rest the minds, but this is the hand you're dealt. You don't always get to pick those in life, but we'll fight through this and compete."
Like the Lady Lions, Dayton had two weeks to stew over a bad loss, its lowest point total of the year in a 63-51 loss as the A-10's top seed.
The long break worried coach Jim Jabir, whose players had to spend a week minding their own games before they knew they were playing Florida and could study the Gators.
"I wanted to create an edge, a chip on our shoulder, and I found it very difficult to maintain that," said Jabir, who also gave his players some time off. "Then we shifted gears and addressed Florida, but the kids were very focused and we had great practices. We're a better team than we were two weeks ago."
Florida has just nine players, and had just seven at one point this season. Coach Amanda Butler hoped her players would be the right combination of rested and ready today.
"You've got to break it up," said Florida senior guard Jaterra Bonds. "Be specific on what you work on each day, and be smart how you operate. Coach Butler's done a great job all season."
For Penn State, the time off has been about defensive prowess and helping its younger players get ready, two areas that looked in doubt in that 99-82 loss to the Buckeyes in Indianapolis. The loss, made extra disappointing by being the top seed for a third straight year with no tournament title to show for it, was one of the Lady Lions' worst shooting performances (36 percent) combined with its worst defensive performance (Ohio State shot 62 percent).
But practice only came once the rest and relaxation was done. Lucas, the Big Ten Player of the Year, said she filled out a men's bracket for the billion-dollar challenge but was eliminated once Dayton beat Ohio State. She didn't complete a women's bracket, saying she'd be too biased.
"This team finds a way to keep themselves loose, I don't worry about that," said Penn State coach Coquese Washington. "This tournament brings a focus and intensity. It's March Madness, and everyone wants to be a part. Warren Buffett wants to be a part. It's not hard to be focused and prepared. There are Cinderella stories and all that stuff. They're excited, they're intense, and they're ready to go out and play."

As Immunotherapy Revolutionizes the Cancer Treatment...
genOway has entered an agreement with the Griffith University of Brisbane, Australia, related to using autologous olfactory adult stem cells to create transgenic rodent models. The eight-month research partnership with the university's Eskitis Institute for Cell and Molecular Therapies is coupled with a worldwide, exclusive license to genOway for the rodent transgenic business.
"The major benefit is olfactory stem cells exist in all species, paving the way for more predictable models," remarks Alexandre Fraichard, CEO of genOway. "The first therapeutic areas to benefit from this innovation would be neurosciences and oncology but also pharmacotoxicology studies. If the research program goes well, we anticipate first revenues as of 2011."
The institute reports that it has successfully characterized adult stem cells of the olfactory bulb on humans, mice, and rats. Germline transmission has been demonstrated in mice, thus validating their use for the creation of mice models, the institute adds.
The eight-month research program aims at establishing germline transmission in rats using existing rat olfactory adult stem cells. The hope is to leverage this technology for rat models and certain mice strains that were tough to develop using embryonic stem cells.
According to the terms of the agreement, each firm will bear the cost of its R&D efforts. genOway has an exclusive license to the technologies for the creation and distribution of genetically modified mouse and rat models. The company develops and supplies genetically modified and value-added research models to the biopharmaceutical, chemical, agrochemical, and food industry as well as for academic research. It operates in over 22 countries in Europe, Asia, and North America, reportedly supplying more than 285 research institutes and biopharmaceutical companies.

The Greeks didn't have to believe in their Gods. They didn't say, "I believe in. . . ." That came in with Christianity. They didn't have a theology they had myths. And we need to read our psychic life not theologically but mythically. They didn't even have a word for religion. When something appears a voice, an image, a dream you respond to it. . . . A Christian has to ask, Is this from God or the Devil? Is it real or did I make it up? . . . This disturbs the natural relationship with phenomena. The very act of believing, the declaration of "I believe," is a subjectivism. It cuts one off from what's there. It cuts one off from imagination, from one's animal faith.

I recently found out about this young artist from Quebec, Black Atlass. His music has a beautiful depth to it, which is refreshing to hear. While listening to his track "Paris" I heard this line, "That's that good bad" and I knew I had to create a remix featuring that lyric. You can hear the original here (highly recommended): Black Atlass – Paris

Here's a remix I just completed for a refreshingly innovative and funky track by the Boston based group, Bad Rabbits. For this remix I tried you use only elements of the original song, but completely re-organize them to create a different perspective (I did end up adding a couple sounds of my own). Enjoy and definitely go check out Bad Rabbits…

|Low-pressure mist systems operate on city water pressure (city water pressures generally range from 40-70 PSI). and are hooked to a garden hose and ready to create mist spray water droplets that cool the air surrounding the outdoor area. but the main disadvantage of low Pressure mist is that it can perhaps wet the floor depending upon the air circulation and installation hight, but this is more economical and affordable constructed from commercial grade molded components capable of handling pressure up to 225 PSI,
If you are looking for the Cloudy Foggy mist system that offers rapid and effective maximum cooling doesnot wetting the floor, then our high-pressure mist system that includes a pump which is not noisy that boosts normal city water pressure up to 1000 or more available up to 1500 Psi giving the maximum cooling for your outdoor area. When using a high-pressure mist system water droplets become broken in to several microns atomizing and creating an ultra-fine mist like a cloud that flash evaporates instantly cooling the area. High-pressure mist systems cool up to 41/2 times better than low-pressure mist systems.
Q. 1 What is the Basics of Mist Cooling Principles ? Ans. 2.25 Lbs of water evaporation gives the same cooling effect as the melting of 15 Lbs of ice. This is nature's own way of cooling air, it produces a considerable amount of cooling effect. The Mist Cooling, Inc FOG NOZZLE converts ordinary water into billions of mini micron-size water particle. When water is forced at 1000 PSI or + pressure through our precision orifice fog nozzle, which generates 10~15 micron size water droplets resulted rapid evaporation takes place, hence achieving total evaporative cooling even in the high relative humidity climate. Q. 2 What water pressure required to create a mist ? Can it hook this kit with my garden hose directly? Ans. Minimum 35 Psi water pressure which is a city water supply pressure.Yes. Q. 3 Do they produce a nice amount of moisture? Ans. Yes, we have four nozzles option for low-high water usage(1.2GPH to 3.26GPH nozzles
Q. 4 Will the fog drop or rise? Ans. It depends where and how you install.
If you install at the top , fog will fall down. or you can adjust according where the fog required.
Q. 5 Will it be warm or cool? Ans. Off course cool, mist cooling systems, works on the Flash Evaporative Cooling basics, the fine fog flash evaporates upon contact with heat in the surrounding area, effectively removing unwanted heat and reducing ambient temperature. Q. 6 How long do they take to start producing a fog? Ans. Immediately as soon as the misting tubing / pipe filled up with the water. Q. 7 How can I extend the kit? can it expandable with standard MC552 Patio kit? Ans. Yes you can extend further easily as many as by 1/2" Extension Kits 10feet mist line MC293. Q. 8 What do I need to buy if I need finer mist? Ans. Higher the pressure - finer the mist, you can buy our low cost Mid Pressure Booster Pump-380 pressure 160 psi. Q. 9 What I need to buy ultra fine mist? Ans. High Pressure Pump module 750 to 1000 psi would produce a real ultra fine mist like cloud.

MISTY MATE/ FAQs
Instructions and Troubleshooting
Depending on which model purchased, your Misty Mate® will provide a cooling time of from 2 to 3 hours of intermittent use (approx. 15 seconds every 2 minutes) or up to 20-30 minutes of continual use. (Note: You will have to re-pressurize after 10 minutes for continual run time)
Operating Instructions
Unscrew cap assembly from bottle.
FILL the bottle with water up to the top of the hose inside the bottle.
Replace the cap onto the bottle and close tightly. Ensure the on/off valve, located on the hose, is closed.
PUMP up the Misty Mate® 20 to 25 times. Make sure each stroke of the pump handle is pushed down completely and rapidly to the top of the cap, or the unit will not fully pressurize. It is normal to feel increasing resistance as the unit builds pressure from continual pumping.
Open on/off valve and enjoy the MIST!
|Why does Techni Ice last longer than regular Ice?
|YES, ice melts at 33 degrees and turns into water. Techni Ice keeps releasing cold air up to room temperature (most refrigerators are set at 45 to 47 degrees. As long as your food and or your drinks are still cool & dry you can eat or drink them). Techni Ice can be frozen as low as your freezer temperature can go (40c if you have a deep freezer).
|How do you activate Techni Ice?
|You submerge It. in warm to hot water and scrunch it from side to side from top to bottom evenly. You do this for approximately 4 to 6 minutes or until hydrated (you should be able to put a thumbprint in each cell. The reason for the thumbprint is when you put anything into the freezer it expands 10%, so you must leave some room for expansion when frozen). If you over hydrate your Techni Ice, just lay it on a counter for 1 to 2 days or put it in the microwave a few times to dehydrate it.
|Why doesn't the water come out of the cells?
|The water enters the tiny holes per cell in Techni Ice and mixes with the crystals and becomes a polymer gel and thus the polymer gel has a bigger molecular make up and since the gel is bigger than the tiny cells, it won't come out.
|How long does Techni Ice last?
|It depends on how often you open and close your cooler, how many sheets you use, how cold you froze the Techni Ice (recommended time of freezing is 24 to 36 hours before using. The longer you freeze, the colder your freezer, the quality of your cooler, the longer it will last). A typical camping cooler with Techni Ice should give you 1 to 4 days approximately of lasting coolness, a day cooler will last a day, and a lunch box will last through a normal lunch period.
|How often can you freeze Techni Ice and how durable is it?
|Remember Techni-Ice is a replacement product Forget those messy water ice cubes that promptly melt and make a soggy mess in your cooler. You can freeze Techni Ice as often as you like. With proper use, you will have years of benefit from Techni Ice.

Foul odor leads to morgue evacuation
About 10 people were evacuated from the Maui County morgue in Wailuku and two women were transported to Maui Memorial Medical Center after a report of an obnoxious odor in a second-floor classroom Wednesday morning, officials said Thursday.
The Maui Fire Department's hazardous-materials crew was called to assist Wailuku firefighters who responded to the 8:23 a.m. alarm at 1831 Wili Pa Loop in the Wailuku Millyard area, said Fire Services Chief Lee Mainaga.
A class of newly hired police dispatchers began feeling ill from odors in the classroom, said Ryan Joslin, Maui County Paramedics Association spokesman. He said two women, ages 26 and 27, were transported to the hospital for treatment of their symptoms. They were in stable condition.
The cause of the odor was undetermined, Mainaga said.
Strong winds expected for Haleakala
Sustained winds of 30 mph and gusts of 50 mph are expected today until 6 p.m. from 6,000 feet to the 10,000-foot summit of Haleakala, said the National Weather Service, which posted a wind advisory for the popular site for visitors.
The strong winds were generated by a strengthening high-pressure weather system to the north, forecasters said.
The winds can make driving, especially in high-profile vehicles, difficult, the weather service warned.
For more weather information, call (866) 944-5025 or go online to www.prh.noaa.gov/hnl.
Wailuku gas prices up, highest in state
Unleaded gas prices in Wailuku rose 2 cents from last week to $4.53 a gallon Thursday, the highest average reported statewide, according to the AAA Hawaii Weekend Gas Watch. That price is 10 cents more than last month and 9 cents higher than last year.
For the ninth week, Hawaii gas prices have increased slightly in most areas, Gas Watch reported. Nevertheless, the state average price for regular unleaded remained at $4.41, the same as last week, 4 cents higher than last month and 20 cents more than a year ago.
Honolulu's average price went up to $4.35 a gallon for regular unleaded. That's a penny more than last week, 3 cents more than last month and 26 cents higher than a year ago.
In Hilo, the average gas price was unchanged at $4.41 a gallon, which is 3 cents more than last month and 8 cents more than a year ago.
AAA Hawaii Weekend Gas Watch is a weekly snapshot of gas prices. Prices are derived from fleet vehicle credit card transactions at more than 100,000 stations around the country and are the combined averages of the last card swipe of the previous day.

DETROIT, MI -- The Billion Dollar Bracket Challenge for the NCAA Tournament, created by billionaires Dan Gilbert and Warren Buffett, appears much harder to win than any real accomplishment on the basketball court.
In fact, one expert told USA Today for a story Sunday that the challenge appears nearly impossible because the odds of randomly predicting the outcome of the main draw's 63 mens' college basketball games is one in 9,223,372,036,854,775,808.
No one in recorded history has done it. So Gilbert, the Detroit-based founder of Quicken Loans, and savvy investor Buffett will likely keep their cash once all this March Madness ceases.
"People realize it's a long shot,'' says Jeff Bergen, a DePaul mathematician, in the USA Today story. "They don't realize how long.''

Need For Speed
- Air Date:
- Tobey Marshall (Aaron Paul) is a blue-collar mechanic who races muscle-cars on the side in an unsanctioned street-racing circuit. Struggling to keep his family-owned garage afloat, he reluctantly partners with the wealthy and arrogant ex-NASCAR driver Dino Brewster (Dominic Cooper). But just as a major sale to car broker Julia Bonet (Imogen Poots) looks like it will save Tobey's shop, a disastrous race allows Dino to frame Tobey for a crime he didn't commit, sending Tobey to prison while Dino expands his business out west. Two years later, Tobey is released and set on revenge -- but he knows his only chance to take down his rival Dino is to defeat him in the high-stakes race known as De Leon—the Super Bowl of underground racing. However to get there in time, Tobey will have to run a high-octane, action-packed gauntlet that includes dodging pursuing cops coast-to-coast as well as contending with a dangerous bounty Dino has put out on his car. With the help of his loyal crew and the surprisingly resourceful Julia, Tobey defies odds at every turn and proves that even in the flashy world of exotic supercars, the underdog can still finish first.

Even and accurate application of fertilizer is essential to produce a good quality, uniform crop. It is also important to help ensure that all plants get a fair share and that some areas don't miss out while others get a double dose. From an environmental view point, it ensures more of the fertilizer is utilised by the plants and less accumulates, unused, to be leached into surface run off, to contaminate ground water or volatilize as greenhouse gasses.
Using quality Stream Bars for application of liquid fertilizers, such as UAN, will ensure that the whole plant stand receives an even and accurate application leading to optimum yields, without the leaf burn normally associated with liquid nitrogen application
Streambars - a One-Piece Solution
Benefits for application
- Utilize current sprayer – fits most sprayers, saves on machinery costs
- Crop height – use them during most of the growing season
- Boom Height – vertical streams of fertilizer with no overlap, fertilizer application is unaffected
- Uneven ground - application is evened out
- Windy conditions - can apply in most weather conditions
- Rate of application - wide range of application rates
- Crop burn - scorch reduced significantly
- Fertilizer placement - very accurate and uniform
New Chafer StreamBar MR Benefits
- Easier to install and replace
- Simpler and more compact
- Easy to fit on most sprayers without an adapter
- Improved operational use
- new easy to use sliding metering unit - slide it along to change rates
- change rates without removing the bars
- application rates from 8gals/ac to 130gals/ac (PDF)
- Reduced distance between the spray line and the Streambars, reduces boom twisting and breakages
- Available with nozzle spacing's of either 15 or 20 inch spacing.
Streambar MR (5 pack)
New Streambar MR provides a highly accurate method of applying liquid fertiliser.

When I got sick last week with body aches and sudden fatigue, I was glad to have elderberry tincture on hand. Multiple studies show that elderberry is extremely effective at curing the flu. In one study published in the Journal of International Medical Research, 90% of Norwegian influenza patients who took elderberry extract were back to normal within three days, compared to six days for the control group, which took placebos. Another study published in the Journal of Alternative and Complimentary Medicine found similar results. Both focused on a standardized extract of black elderberry, Sambucus nigra.
I put a couple teaspoons of the sweet dark pink liquid in two cups of tea and I was back to my health within two days. I got the elderberry tincture from Portland herbalist Nicole Pepper. I bartered with her, offering her some Oregon Grape root tincture I'd made.
You can buy elderberry tincture at health food stores or you can make it yourself. Elderberry shrubs grow all over the world, especially in Europe, the U.S. and Canada. They grow up to 25 feet tall everywhere from forested riversides to waste places at elevations up to 10,000 feet. (You can find them as ornamentals in landscaping, too).
You can identify an elderberry shrub by its leaves, which are smooth in texture; lance-shaped with toothed edges; and compound, arranged opposite each other in groups of five to nine leaflets. The tiny flowers hang in flat clusters. Elderberry is in the honeysuckle family, botanically speaking. More on ID here.
There are three main kinds of elderberry, American (black), Sambucus nigra, which is a shrub up to 4 meters tall; blue, Sambucus cerulea, a tree up to 12 meters tall that grows in dry, open habitats; and red, Sambucus racemosa, which likes stream banks, moist clearings and open forests. I see red and blue elderberry most often in the local wilderness areas, and black in landscaping. The distinction between these kinds matters not at all in terms of harvesting flowers. But when the berries come around for eating, the black and blue are far, far tastier, and good to eat raw, whereas the red must be cooked first because they reportedly contain higher levels of toxins in them. The red elderberries are indeed red, or else yellow-orange. The black and blue berries are good candidates to become jam, syrup, wine, etc.
There are actually even more varieties of elderberry, especially in urban and suburban settings, where people like to plant it as an ornamental.
All parts of all elderberry species other than the flowers and berries contain cyanide-producing compounds, so it is a good idea to avoid the leaves, stems and bark when harvesting for food or medicine.
To make the medicine yourself, you need to find the flowers in late spring or ripe berries in mid-summer through fall. If the berries are blue or black in color and are hanging in a cluster that's facing downward, you're good. If they are red and seem to be reaching toward the sky, however, abort the mission, because it means you've got a potentially toxic species on hand. (Flowers of red will be fine). And be sure to avoid eating any other parts of an elderberry of any species because the leaves, branches and bark contain cyanide. (Knowledgeable herbalists may point out that the cyanide can be medicinal in itself in small quantities for other conditions.)
As always, gather conservatively. Elderberry is an important food for nonhuman animals, including bears and bees, and it provides shelter for birds and small mammals.
Tincture Recipe:
*Mix one part berries or flowers with two parts alcohol solution in a glass jar – which means fill jar with plant matter, then pour in liquid and it will fill the spaces.
*Cover jar
*Let sit in the dark for two to six weeks to cure.
The alcohol solution, called a "menstruum," should be 50% strength, which means use 100 proof vodka or brandy, or buy a stronger kind and dilute it down with water.
Elderberry is a medicine of the people. Spread the love — share this post with your friends and family.

There's a new man in Bernadette Peters's life: Kramer, a handsome mixed breed she adopted from a New York City ASPCA. But her love of Kramer's fellow orphaned pooches prompted the Tony winner and her pal, Mary Tyler Moore, to form Broadway Barks, a group that for the past 10 years has helped others take home rescue dogs from shelters.
Earlier this week, at a glittery gathering that brought out Angela Lansbury and Joan Rivers, Moore hosted a party for Peters's brand new children's book about Kramer, titled Broadway Barks and whose sales go to benefit the pets group. Also included is a CD of Peters's lullaby to her furry pal – which the star lovingly sang on Friday's edition of The View.

So after being on here a few months now, I have seen alot of people asknig the same questions about aeroponics, so I thought, what the hell I will write up the best I can a simple guide to aeroponics the way I do it.
Ok first off lets describe a little about aeroponics, its history and its future.
Aeroponics is a relativly new growing technology in which plants roots are fed and watered suspended in midair. The plants are generally suspended from baskets with holes in them called net cups, and resemble the rates that strawberries come in. The cups usually sit at the top of a closed cylinder or trough. With the plants suspended this way all essential nutrients and nourishment can be supplied to the roots by misting them with a nutrient enriched water based solution. Since the roots are suspended in the air they recieve the maximum amount of oxygen possible. This method is also nutrient efficient since you need only provide what the plant needs and no more, and any unused nutrient simply falls back to the reservior. The increased levels of oxygen the roots recieve benefits growth at unprecedented levels, and has been scientifically proven to increase crop yields by as much as ten times over soil. Now the drawback, You must constantly maintain the root zone at 100 percent humidity, and keep the roots constantly misted or they will rapidly dry out, and cause a crop failure.
AERO/DWC hybrids
Most of the systems available on the market today are this typeof system they feature the same suspended roots and misting heads as a full aero system, but there is no external reservior, instead the roots are suspened over the res and the roots hang down, eventually long enough to sit in the nutrient solution, the added benefit of having a hybrid system is the deep res allows for water pump failure, it will keep the roots from drying out, and iff you add an airstone then the roots will simply feed directly out of the res until you can fix the pump.
Lets look at some key points you need to be aware of and how they affect your plants and system.
With aeroponics it is vitally important to get good nutrients, such as Dutch master or GH, as long as it isnt the flora nova series, which tend to leave behind alot of undisolved salt residue, which can clog the sprayers or the pump, or worse, cause nutrient lockout. I dont reccomend using a single part nutrient for aeroponics. I do reccomend finding a good nutrient that allows you the most control over what your feeding your plants.
P.H. level
With aeroponics your p.H. level is very crucial, because you are feeding the plant with such a fine mist, the nutrients the plant needs have to be readily available to be absorbed, the optimum range is between 5.8 and 6.2 but can be as acidic as 5.5 and as base as 6.5 without noticing to many problems. Whenever possible try to target your pH level at 6.0 right in the middle. You should check you pH everyday, but do not adjust it everyday, if everything is in good working order you shouldnt see a large fluctuation in the number anyway.
because you have a pump running constantly in your res you need to keep an eye on the temperature of your nutrient solution, plants like a nice cool drink, so get a fish tank or floating thermometer and leave it in your res to monitor the temp.
now lets look at some common mistakes people make and how to avoid them, or if they happen how to correct them
WATER EVAPORATION - This happens when the res temp is to high, and the system is not sealed well, this also means that your root zone is not being kept at 100% R.H. if water evaporates the concentration of your nutrients become stronger and will damage the plant and its roots. To fix this make sure the lids is secure and all holes are blocked by plants or closed off in another fashion, keeping water from escaping.
FUNGAL OR BACTERIAL GROWTH - This one is nasty and is usually a side effect of a light leak or a res temperature that is to high. To prevent this make sure you thoroughly clean everything after each use, and clean the res with each nutrient change. I use a 10% bleach solution to clean between each grow and a weak H2O2 solution to clean the reservior every time
ROOT ROT - this one is a little less common but still occurs in the hybrid systems, if you ever encounter htis, then your solution is not being aerated adequatly, so you must add an air pump and air stone, but in most cases the falling mist and the pump will keep the nutrient solution oxygenated plenty for you.
CLOGGED SPRAYERS this is by far the most heard of problem in the actual system, and luckily it is easy and cheap to fix. If you run into the problem of your srayers continually getting clogged, do two things and it will almost guaranteed go away. first buy an inline filter or make one out of pvc and faucet screens, and second change your nutrients because the number one cause of clogged sprayers is undissolved salt build up.
Ok everyone I have written alot so far and I am tired of typing, if I missed anything or you still have questions please let me know, I love to help if I can.

Some of you may have seen the farewell email that ex-PWC employee Gareth Jenkins sent to some colleagues after getting fired for failing his accountancy exams. If you haven't, you can read about it here in the Evening Standard.
We have also pasted the full version here if you're interested.
He has received a lot of criticism for being immature, naive, etc, etc. Boring, boring, boring.
Esc reckons hats off to Gareth for reacting with a healthy dose of black humour and cynicism about the corporate machine. Plenty of people fail their accountancy exams and usually not because they are stupid, but often because they can't bring themselves to learn the mind-numbingly boring information that 3 years of Audit training requires.
There are people out there who find Audit work interesting (we're not being sarcastic – there genuinely are). Esc says good for them. They're fortunate enough to have found something they enjoy.
We reckon that this was probably the best thing to have happened to Gareth, and the many people in his situation, because it will prompt him to re-evaluate his choices and work out what it is that he actually wants to be spending his time doing.
If anyone knows Gareth Jenkins please tell us. We would be really keen to interview him for the site!

The clinical spectrum of primary hyperparathyroidism has been greatly broadened in recent years. Initially this disease was recognized only by the presence of osteitis fibrosa cystica generalisata.1 In 1925 Mandl was the first to excise a parathyroid tumor in a patient with classical skeletal changes.2 Albright and his associates subsequently showed that hyperparathyroidism was more commonly associated with kidney stones.1 More recent studies have shown an association of hyperparathyroidism with peptic ulcers,3-8 pancreatitis,9-11 steatorrhea,12 multiple endocrine adenomas,13-15 and a multitude of clinical signs and symptoms secondary to the hyperparathyroid state.4,7
An accurate diagnosis of primary hyperparathyroidism can be made only by correlation of the clinical findings and laboratory studies. Unfortunately, there is no direct test for parathyroid gland activity, and laboratory studies depend upon indirect procedures such as the determination of serum calcium and inorganic phosphorus and the various tests of phosphate

Currency, Emerging Market Currency, Fixed Income, Currency & Alternative
Emerging Currencies: Is Purchasing Power Parity Broken?
Frequently quoted by international economists as a means of assessing the value of currencies against one another, the basic notion of purchasing power parity (PPP) states that if currencies are in equilibrium (or fairly priced), then converting one currency into another should buy the equivalent amount of goods in another country. Taking a real world example, a Big Mac in the United States should cost the same as in Poland after converting your dollars to zloty. Indeed, the Economist newspaper popularized this way of thinking through their "Big Mac Index," in which they use the menu of the world's largest fast food chain to compare the relative purchasing power of foreign currencies against the U.S. dollar. But with global growth being revised down around the world and concerns about rising interest rates in the U.S., most foreign currencies have depreciated against the dollar in the last few months. As this has occurred, discounts in many emerging market currencies have actually increased versus their long-term target of appreciation. So what role does PPP play in how investors should think about currency risk in their portfolios?
Sources: International Monetary Fund, Bloomberg, WisdomTree
As shown in the chart above, for many investors, an attractive element of emerging market currencies versus their developed market counterparts is the fact that they are trading at (sometimes significant) discounts to their long-term purchasing power. The thinking goes that as their economies develop and become more efficient, the prices of similar goods will eventually converge via the exchange rate. However, there is no market guarantee that these discounts can't increase in the short term, should these currencies depreciate, as we've seen in recent risk-off periods. Essentially, PPP represents a basic valuation of comparative exchange rates. In many ways, PPP is similar to the notion of the price/earnings ratio in the equity market. While their valuations appear "cheap" relative to other assets, there is no guarantee that the price will increase, which would lead to investment gains.
However, just as in equities, "cheap" valuations can become even "cheaper" during periods of market stress. Indeed, the most recent period has been particularly difficult, as many investors have shunned nearly all emerging market assets in 2013. Absent investment flows, increases in economic growth or a general change in sentiment, foreign currencies and asset prices have remained weak against a domestic equity market that has recently touched all-time highs. So what will ultimately reverse the recent period of weakness in foreign currencies?
While no silver bullet exists, it is interesting that the vast majority of emerging market countries with "undervalued" currencies are predominantly export-based economies. Therefore, as their currencies depreciate, their goods actually become cheaper to foreign buyers. On the other hand, the price of imported goods increases, which leads to the potential for an increase in inflation. It has long been said that it is important for a larger economy such as China to move up the value chain and transition to a more domestic-consumption-focused economy. While an appreciating currency may make China's exports comparatively more expensive, it will gradually increase the foreign purchasing power of Chinese consumers. If appreciation occurs in a gradual way, a strengthening currency can be a positive factor for foreign investors and local consumers at the same time.
Although the recent period of volatility has proven difficult for many investors, we believe there is potential for long-term value in diversifying the currency risk of their portfolios. At current levels, investors might consider learning more about different ways of altering the currency risk profile of their portfolios through foreign-currency exchange-traded funds.
Important Risks Related to this Article
Investments in currency involve additional special risks, such as credit risk and interest rate fluctuations. Foreign investing involves special risks, such as risk of loss from currency fluctuation or political or economic uncertainty. Investments in emerging, offshore or frontier markets are generally less liquid and less efficient than investments in developed markets and are subject to additional risks, such as risks of adverse governmental regulation and intervention or political developments.

As fighting continues in Libya and young people in the Middle East threaten similar uprisings, the price of oil continues to rise, which could dramatically affect the nation's economy.
Fierce fighting continues on the streets of Libya. Despite the use of deadly force by Moammar Gadhafi's supporters, opposition forces have pushed closer to Libya's capital of Tripoli and have said they're more united than ever.
The turmoil abroad has added pressure on gas prices in the U.S.
The price of a barrel of oil has spiked 18 percent in the last ten days. Unrest in the Middle East has made oil speculators nervous.
"What it affects is the market," said Brian Newbacher, director of public affairs for the American Automobile Association. "And with the fear of unrest spreading to bigger oil producing countries like Saudi Arabia or Iran, that's what's driving us."
According to AAA, the average price nationwide for a gallon of regular gasoline is $3.28.
"It's gone up $1.20 since last August and it's just killing us," said Henry Bishop, a truck owner and driver.
The higher gas prices also threatens to slow down the already fragile U.S. economy.
"Every dollar increase in the price of gasoline cuts consumer spending by a $120 billion," said Jon Osbon, of Osbon Capital Management. "That's a lot of money."
Saudi Arabia has entered into talks with European refiners about making up the shortfall caused by disrupted oil production in Libya. That move has brought oil prices down by just a few dollars.
However, continued political unrest in the richest oil producing countries in the world has kept speculators on edge.
Once the turmoil in Libya has ended, gas prices are expected to fall. However, analysts say don't get used to it. With a higher demand for oil and gas in developing countries, the trend in the coming months and years could be higher gas prices than many Americans will want to pay.

"Since 1999, DAT politics is by far one of the most extatic electro party bands on the planet. Their remarkably energetic live shows explain the cult like enthusiasm that surround the french electronic combo as they've been touring the world extensively over the years. DAT politics channel a rough-edged turbo pop mood through their laptops to create some of the most unexpectedly catchy and lively music ever assembled by digital means. Dat Politics' new album 'Blitz Gazer' is an exhilarating reboot in the band's career. Entirely recorded in Berlin in 2011 by the newly formed duo, this new piece will certainly give satisfaction to the electro-maniac fanbase who will find in these 12 tunes their share of synthetic 80's hits, catchy loops and bouncy drum machines. Less expected, but pleasantly surprising is their ability to turn the voltage level down by chanting neon lite robo ballads. Some dreamy melodic breaks rise in a rhythmic electric storm. We explore a brand new aspect of the band's wide influences and possibilities." (label info) also available on CD

In the course of the 20th century, 'Norte-Americanización' has become a crucial factor in Latin America penetrating all spheres of life. Despite its overwhelming social relevance to Latin American Studies research has so far largely shunned the question.

After a season filled with drama, heartache and tabloid rumors, Pavelka, 32, popped the question to 23-year-old Florida fitness consultant Vienna Girardi in St. Lucia on the show's season finale Monday night.
Girardi, the subject of a slew of tabloid rumors about betrayal and plastic surgery in recent weeks, tearfully accepted Pavelka's earnest, down-on-one-knee proposal, embracing him as the season's theme, Jeffrey Osborne's "On The Wings of Love," played over a video montage.
On the season finale Pavelka had to choose between the spirited, adventurous Girardi, and the wholesome, earthy Tenley Molzahn. He introduced both women to his family, who fell for Molzahn. They seemed to be lukewarm on Girardi, after hearing she didn't get along well with the other women on the show. But by the end of the intense meet-and-greets, the Pavelka family gave him their blessings for both women.
For viewers, it was clear Pavelka was smitten with Girardi, especially on their last adventure to a sulfur spring. They rubbed mud on each other's bodies and seemed happier than two pigs in a puddle. Girardi scrawled "I Love You" on Pavelka's mud-covered chest, and the two snuggled and kissed, later rinsing off near a waterfall. That evening, Girardi gave Pavelka a ring her father had given her.
The next day Pavelka's yacht outing with Molzahn was more subdued. He wondered aloud if maybe they lacked physical chemistry for each other. Molzahn, who went through a painful divorce last year, seemed hurt and confused.
It was a foreshadowing of things to come. Both women readied for the final rose ceremony, arriving via helicopter to a lush remote location where Pavelka, dressed in a gray suit, awaited.
Pavelka fought back tears as he tried to let Molzahn down gently. "You're just perfect," he said. "I don't know what it is. Something just doesn't feel right. I don't know why." The two had an emotional embrace, and Molzahn ended up consoling Pavelka by saying, "Thank you for making me feel special."
The two said goodbye, and then Pavelka awaited Girardi's arrival, saying, "I would never ask for a woman's hand in marriage unless I was 100 percent sure."
Once standing face-to-face with Girardi, who wore an emerald green off-the-shoulder gown, Pavelka couldn't contain his emotions. First, he told Girardi he couldn't accept the ring she'd given him the night before because it had sentimental value to her. Girardi seemed hurt and confused, as if she were about to be jilted.
Then, fighting back tears, Pavelka declared what he'd wanted to all season long, "Vienna, I love you."
Relieved, the two embraced and kissed. Then Pavelka took a step back, dropped to one knee and, displaying a Neil Lane diamond and platinum sparkler in his hands, spoke from his heart, "Vienna, I love you with everything that I am. Vienna, will you marry me?"
He placed the engagement ring on her finger as she gasped and replied, "Oh my God. Yes. Yes!" --Monica Rizzo

COLUMBIANA, Alabama – One of Gov. Robert Bentley's last stops on the campaign trail before Tuesday's primary election brought him before a crowd of familiar faces.
On Saturday morning, he and his wife Dianne paid a visit to Columbiana, the governor's hometown and, as he described it, "the heart of the Heart of Dixie."
"I always love coming back to Columbiana," Bentley said after the rally. "Where you grew up and spent your youth, you have all those good, fond memories of being up here."
State Rep. Mike Hill offered opening remarks to introduce the governor and his wife, and the band from Bentley's alma mater – Shelby County High School – performed the national anthem.
In his bid for a second term as governor, Bentley described to the crowd the steps he has taken to streamline the state's government over the past four years. He also highlighted the recruitment of companies such as Airbus in Mobile and Remington in Huntsville; his emphasis on expanding pre-K programs throughout Alabama; and the rebuilding of a convention center in Gulf Shores.
"We cannot do these things quickly or overnight, but we have the organizational structure in place to make a difference over the next four years," Bentley said.
He noted the differences between his first campaign for governor four years ago and his return to Columbiana on Saturday. Last time, just a handful of people attended a fundraiser six months before the primary. About 500 people turned out for Saturday's rally outside the courthouse on N. Main Street.
"I want to be the people's governor," he said. "I stood out there and shook hands with everybody who wanted to shake hands with me because they stood out there in the hot sun and I'll do the same thing."
Bentley, a retired dermatologist from Tuscaloosa, announced his re-election bid in April 2013, more than a year before the primary.
Stacy Lee George, a state corrections officer and former county commissioner in Morgan County, is challenging Bentley, and Bob Starkey, of Scottsboro, also qualified to run for the Republican nomination.
On the Democratic side, former Congressman Parker Griffith is seeking the nomination. Kevin Bass, a businessman and former minor league baseball player from Fayette, is also running in the Democratic primary, his first run for office.

Erie-area residents await State of the Union address
What do you want to hear from President Barack Obama's State of the Union address tonight?
George Guilford, 73, Erie
"I want to make sure they keep our Social Security coming, try to keep the taxes down, and do something about our medical costs. They're getting way out of line."
Pat Guilford, 74, Erie
"He should talk about ... getting all the men home from all over the world -- wherever they're fighting at -- and what is he going to do about the immigration problem? He should have a plan where they can become citizens. Then they would have all the benefits that we have as citizens, but they shouldn't have the benefits until they become citizens."
Kathy Steinhauser, 69, Fairview
"The gas. Why is gas going up after his second term? And get all those (soldiers) out of Afghanistan."
Ashley Johnson, 23, Erie
"Making Erie (and other communities) better through the economy ... and reducing gun violence."

The beta of the next version of the Ubuntu Linux operating system has arrived, although judging by its stability and polish you'd be hard pressed to tell it's a testing release.
Ubuntu 8.04, code-named "Hardy Heron", is scheduled to be an LTS (Long Term Support) edition, and you can tell its developers have worked diligently to make it worthy of the title.
Ubuntu, the leading desktop Linux OS, has settled into a stable look and feel over the past few releases, and this time the cosmetic changes are minor. The familiar brown and orange colour scheme remains, as does the overall fit and finish of the windows and controls.

Ubuntu 7.04 Feisty Fawn desktop Linux review
Under the hood, however, Ubuntu 8.04 has improved considerably. Between a new kernel, a new version of the Gnome desktop, improved windowing and graphics layers, and a number of default configuration tweaks, nearly everything about Hardy Heron feels snappier and more responsive than the previous version. Windows and menus feel less sluggish, disk access is improved, and programs launch more quickly. Hardy Heron even boots faster.
Installation itself may be Hardy Heron's biggest revelation. This release offers a new, optional installation utility called Wubi, which promises to lower the barrier to entry considerably.
Wubi runs as a Windows application and can install a complete Ubuntu system as a single file on a Windows hard disk. There's no need to re-partition your drive and no risk of wiping out your existing data. When you boot into Ubuntu, the system reads and writes to the file as if it were a standalone drive.
Later, if you decide that Linux isn't for you, you can uninstall it like any other Windows application.
Ubuntu's own application suite has also been updated for version 8.04. Most notably, Firefox 3.0 - itself still in beta - will be the default browser that ships with the OS, and it looks to be a promising upgrade.
Other new applications, such as the Brasero CD/DVD burning software, feel lacklustre when compared to similar software for Windows or Mac OS X. But overall, Ubuntu continues to provide a good selection of applications for most purposes, without overloading the system with excessive and redundant software options as some Linux distributions do.
NEXT PAGE: other new features, and our expert verdict > >
The beta of the next version of the Ubuntu Linux operating system has arrived, although judging by its stability and polish you'd be hard pressed to tell it's a testing release.
Other new features are likely to be overlooked by desktop users but appreciated by systems administrators. There have been security improvements, including better memory protection and a fine-grained access control system called PolicyKit.
What's more, Ubuntu 8.04 offers easy integration with Active Directory environments for the first time, thanks to a new software package called Likewise Open.
Despite its present maturity, Hardy Heron is definitely a work in progress. In fact, immediately after installing the beta, the software update manager informed me that there were already 106 updates available. And some longtime users will question the inclusion of some of certain bleeding-edge features, such as the new PulseAudio sound layer, which is not yet compatible with a lot of current Linux audio software.
Ubuntu 8.04 Hardy Heron: Specs
- 300MHz x86 processor (700MHz x86 recommended)
- 4GB (8GB) disk space
- VGA graphics card capable of 640x480 (1024x768) resolution
- CD-ROM drive or network card
- sound card and internet connection recommended
- 300MHz x86 processor (700MHz x86 recommended)
- 4GB (8GB) disk space
- VGA graphics card capable of 640x480 (1024x768) resolution
- CD-ROM drive or network card
- sound card and internet connection recommended
If this first taste is any indication, Ubuntu 8.04 Hardy Heron is shaping up to be a worthy upgrade for existing users and a good jumping-on point for new ones. Wubi, in particular, makes it ideal for anyone who has hesitated to give Linux a try before now. Look for the final version to be available in April.
