honor 7Compare5.8 reviewThe honor 7 variations differ in connectivity and storage only, with a basic 16 GB model with LTE radio, then one with a dual SIM dual-standby LTE abilities, and the flagship of the trio with 64 GB of internal memory.Other than those differences, they all sport the same stylish aluminum alloy exterior, and 5.2" 1080p displays with 423ppi. The trio is run by the company's own 64-bit Kirin 935 chipset, clocked at 2.2 GHz maximums for a quartet of Cortex-A53 cores, and 1.5 GHz for the other A53 set of four, with ARM's Mali-T628 GPU doing the graphical heavy lifting. The phones come with 3 GB RAM and 16-64 GB internal memory, plus a microSD slot for expansion. Here we come to the impressive parts about the affordable honor 7 - it will ship with a 20 MP rear camera, which will sport Phase Detection Auto Focus to boot. This likely means that the newest Sony sensor is onboard, with an F2.0 aperture, 6-lens module, and sapphire glass for added protection. The front-facing camera is no slouch either, featuring an 8 MP resolution and wide-angle lens. Beneath the rear camera one would find a touch fingerprint sensor only.+ View Specs

Sony Xperia Z4vCompareThe Verizon version of Sony's latest phone is a bit thicker than the Z3+/Z4 (8.6mm vs 6.9mm) and heavier (160gr vs 144gr) as well. It's also donning an ever so slightly larger battery at the back - while the regular Z3+ and Z4 are endowed with 2,930mAh ones, the Z4v has a 3,000mAh juicer at the user's disposal. There's also Qi wireless charging on board coupled with Qualcomm's Quick Charge 2.0 tech. This is not where the differences end, mind you - the Xperia Z4v is the first Sony smartphone to come with a Quad HD display. Its size is 5.2 inches and the resolution of 1440 x 2560 pixels means that the phone is rocking a pixel density of 564ppi. Apart from differences, the Sony Xperia Z4v is otherwise similar to the Z3+ and the Z4. There's an octa-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 810 inside, 3GB of RAM, 32GB of native storage and a microSD card slot, a 20.7MP rear Exmor RS camera that shoots 4K videos at 30fps, a 5MP front-facing one for selfies.+ View Specs

It further offers a 2 MP front-facing camera, a 5 MP rear camera, 1.5 GB of RAM, 8 GB of storage space, and microSD card support.

RAPID CITY, S.D. – The Rapid City Rush impressed Friday night, with a resounding 5-1 win over the Quad City Mallards sending a game one message that they are ready to challenge for the Ray Miron Presidents' Cup.
Just 5:02 into the first period, Rush captain Scott Wray scored the game's first goal. Wray and rookie Kyle Stroh finished the night with three points, while Scott Brannon tallied four as the Rush cruised to a 5-1 game one win over visiting Quad City.
The game quickly became physical with a number of incidents early on that led to two four-on-four's and 15 other minor penalties, ultimately producing no power play goals. The Rush scored their fourth goal just 31-seconds into the third period signaling the end of the Mallards' chances of a comeback. Tim Boron stopped 26-shots, which speaks to the defensive scheme devised to hold down the Mallards' potent offense.
After a number of skirmishes and roughing penalties, as well as some bone-jarring checks, all indications are that the longer this series continues, the more physical it is likely to get as tempers get shorter than they already are. 14 minor penalties were called for roughing, slashing, or cross checking, with numerous other incidents that drew no calls. Included was a 10-man skirmish in the Rapid City defensive zone which could have easily drawn several more minor penalties after Rush captain Scott Wray and Mallards alternate captain Jim McKenzie took their battle for position in front of the net too far.
With 1:19 left in the game, Matt Boyd centered a pass to a charging Jeff Lee to provide the only goal of the night for the Mallards. The Oakley Three Stars of the Game were Wray (Star 1), Brannon (Star 2), and Boron (Star 3).
The Rush and Mallards meet again tonight at 7:05pm at the Rushmore Plaza Civic Center before the series moves to the Quad Cities.

The 2005 UK Workshop on Computational Intelligence (UKCI-05) will be hosted by the School of Computer Science and Information Systems at Birkbeck College, University of London, UK, and will take place on the 5-7 September 2005.
Computational Intelligence (CI) is a rapidly expanding research field that encompasses fuzzy systems, neural networks, classification, machine learning and evolutionary computation. CI research is being carried out by an increasingly large number of engineers, scientists and mathematicians and also a growing number of companies are employing CI techniques on learning problems for data analysis.
Recently, there have been successful developments in combining different CI techniques, and conventional methods, to build hybrid intelligent systems. These include smart adaptive systems that allow the achievement of stability in spite of changes that are either external or internal to the system, thereby increasing the re-usability of developed systems.
The aim of this workshop is to provide a forum for the academic community and industry to share ideas about developing and using CI techniques and to exchange views and ideas. The informal setting is designed to encourage a lively atmosphere for discussing future research problems and for forging new contacts and collaborations.
The workshop will include presentations of submitted papers and invited lectures by eminent CI researchers. It has been deliberately set as a low-cost event, so that young researchers in academia and industry may actively participate as well as established workers in the field.

It's his real name, and Jean Tinker Toney doesn't have a problem with it.
"I get a lot of comments," said Toney, owner of Tinker's Guide Service in Pottsboro. "I used to get teased about it a lot. I've got a girl's first name, so all my mail comes to Ms. Toney. I've learned to live with it."
Toney, who has guided on Lake Texoma for 18 years, said his unusual names came from family.
"Jean is an old family name," he said. "It's always been spelled that way. It's my dad's name. Tinker is my uncle."
Toney and his guide service will be represented for the first time at the Panhandle Boat, Sport and Travel show Friday through Sunday in the Amarillo Civic Center. But it won't be the first time he's dealt with outdoorsmen from the Amarillo area.
"We've never been to the show in Amarillo because it conflicted with the shows in Abilene and Dallas and Mesquite," Toney said. "We have a lot of regular customers in that area; it's just the first chance we've had to go to the show."
Toney said Tinker's specializes in striper fishing with live bait, especially when it comes to inexperienced anglers. But Tinker's also offers guided trips for catfish, large and smallmouth bass, paddle fish, doves, ducks, deer, turkeys, geese and hogs.
"We do just about everything," he said.
Besides his name, Toney said the most unusual thing about his business is the striper fishing and duck hunting below the Denison Dam off a 20-foot airboat.
Toney will be joined by three other guides from Lake Texoma, show coordinator Anita Clack said.
And possibly one very recognizable character.
Canon City, Colo., Chamber of Commerce spokeswoman Elaine Blair is not making any promises, but she said there is a possibility cartoon legend Yogi Bear will be at the show. If he does, it will be to promote Yogi Bear's Jellystone Campground near Canon City.
"There's a Yogi everywhere at that place," Blair said. "It's a wonderful park for families."
Jellystone, located about one mile west of the Royal Gorge exit near Canon City, may be joined by several rafting companies and other chamber business looking to add more Texans to their customer lists, Blair said.
"We count vehicles that come into our tourist centers, and there are more cars from Texas than anywhere else beside Colorado," Blair said.
A list of businesses that will display their wares with the Canon City Chamber will not be completed until several days before the show, Blair added.
Clack estimated this year's show will have between 60 and 75 booths.
"It's not the biggest show we've had, but it's certainly in line with the biggest," Clack said. "It's healthy, I'll say that. It just keeps growing."
Clack said the show will include seven boat dealers, camp trailers and fifth wheels, a 30-foot trout tank with $100 tagged fish in the water at all times, fishing tackle dealers and seminars. Crimestoppers will be making free ID cards for the kids.
Admission is $4 for adults, $3 for senior citizens, $2 for young adults and children under 10 are admitted free, Clack said.

Bravo, Larry Scott, for delivering something the Pac-10 hasn't seen in decades: direction. Arizona and Arizona State should be thankful.
The sweeping changes announced Thursday by the conference commissioner should translate to greater revenue for both schools while allowing them to maintain their football recruiting grip on Southern California.
"Financially, athletics at ASU have been challenging the last few years," ASU president Michael Crow said. "This is the first of two or three steps . . . that when put together in the mid- to long-term, has ASU athletics financially positioned fantastically."
It is a nod to Crow, who, as chairman of the CEO Executive Group of the Pac-10, helped guide the conference presidents and chancellors to decisions that were unanimous. And it is tangible evidence of Scott's vision for the new Pac-12, which now has revenue-sharing, two divisions and a conference title game.
"I'm very excited. This is going to benefit us significantly in a lot of ways," ASU athletic director Lisa Love said. "The first is that the Pac-10 is one unanimous enterprise. We're no longer 10 islands fending for ourselves."
As expected, the addition of Utah and Colorado led to a two-division conference for football whose schedule will be announced in four to six weeks. The new schools will join the Arizona and Southern California schools in the South Division, with the Oregon and Washington schools joining forces with Stanford and California in the North Division. There will be no divisions in other sports.
Football teams will play nine conference games: five division meetings and four cross-division ones. To help preserve the longstanding rivalries between the northern and southern California universities, those schools will play each other every year.
That means the Oregon and Washington schools will compete against Los Angeles-area schools only once every two years, irking much of a Northwest fan base that values the perks that come with those meetings, including recruiting advantages and attractive travel.
That decision was made, Scott said, because "respecting historical rivalries" was a priority.
From a financial standpoint, the changes benefit the Sun Devils and Wildcats. They will see less of Stanford, California and Washington State, programs that typically don't travel well to Arizona, and meet Colorado and Utah every season.
Meanwhile, they preserve the advantages that come with traveling to Los Angeles every season. Nearly one-third of Arizona and Arizona State players on this season's rosters come from Southern California.
"One of the things we need to continue to work on is our reputation as a traveling conference," Arizona athletic director Greg Byrne said. "(The Southern California schools) are good proximity to us. We have a lot of alumni there and it's easy for people to drive out. It can do nothing but help us."
So will a revenue-sharing plan that could mean as much as an additional $6 million to $7 million annually once a new media rights deal kicks in beginning in 2012-2013. USC and UCLA - which generate more television revenue - will receive an additional $2 million each on top of what is distributed to the other 10 universities until combined broadcast revenues reach $170 million (but not longer than five years).
"It's been something that was talked about for years but never accomplished," Byrne said. "I think that while everyone was looking after their own institution, they also did what was good long term for the league as well as its financial stability."
Scott also announced that that a conference title game between division winners will be played in December of 2011 at the home field of the team with the best conference record. Although a neutral site was considered, the dynamics of the Pac-10 make a host site preferable, Scott said.
The conference's struggles in attracting consistently large attendance to the Pac-10 basketball tournament in Los Angeles is proof. The thought of holding it at a neutral site like Las Vegas was quickly shot down because it would be hard to justify pumping money into a city that houses another conference's team, especially in this economy.
"Playing on an earned home field will guarantee a full house," Love said. "It's the kind of excitement you want for that type of game."
The conference will consider a neutral site in the future, Scott said, "but for now this is our plan."
It's a darn good one for a conference that has been stagnant too long.

Last week I was interviewed by HealthcareSource regarding my thoughts on video interviewing.
I have to say that overall, I am a big fan of video interviewing (and Interview Manager® ) for a variety of reasons including:
- Interviewing 'out of market' candidates – - Why wouldn't you have a dynamic video interview prior to bringing someone in? It is good for both parties to 'meet' in a two-dimensional format to see if it makes sense to move forward and the cost savings (versus just a phone view prior to flying a candidate in) are HUGE!!!
- It allows managers to review and compare candidates. This is a really cool feature!
- The entry portal can provide a really professional candidate experience including the ability to provide video links, etc.
- Remote managers can participate in the interview – - saving time/money for all parties.
- Candidates that do not have a video camera get one FOR FREE! So those folks that you might think are 'technology phobic' (because they don't have a camera) . . . can see how easy it is to use .
- Helps drive a Lean, efficient staffing process!
One of my clients commented "If I could just get more candidate to meet with my managers, they would get excited about our facility, location, and job opportunity. But I often can't get them to fly in to visit us!" What a wonderful, risk free way to engage both parties to explore and see if there is a mutual interest!?
One candidate commented that video interviewing can also set a positive tone about how leading edge the organization is regarding technology (a good thing!). "If HR is using new technology . . . I bet the entire facility is!"
I have another client starting to implement a video interview platform for all entry level campus hiring. This is a great way to consistently evaluate candidates in a market segment used to using technology. Of course this platform probably isn't the right tool for your non-exempt hires.
For many situations, video interviewing makes perfect sense to me! But, I'm curious what you folks think. Please provide us with your input by responding to the polls below. I will publish the results of what you're thinking next week !

GREENSBORO, N.C. — Unfurling in almost cinematic form, an elaborate scheme to hide former Sen. John Edwards' affair and the child it produced was methodically set out by federal prosecutors here Tuesday.
The government kept Andrew Young, its star witness and once Edwards' closest aide, on the stand all day. Using cellphone records, emails and Edwards' own voice mails, prosecutors tried to show that Edwards, who was seeking the Democratic presidential nomination, was the mastermind behind the crimes he stands accused of and that Young was not lying.
Edwards, 58, has pleaded not guilty to six counts related to campaign finance violations involving nearly $1 million in secret payments provided by two wealthy donors as he sought the presidency in 2008. If he is convicted on all counts, he faces up to 30 years in prison and $1.5 million in fines.
Though much of Young's side has been told, in his own book and media reports, the details of Edwards' affair with the onetime campaign videographer Rielle Hunter were riveting, spun out for hours in a courtroom while Edwards' elder daughter, Cate, and his parents sat behind him.
Young, who has immunity from prosecution, testified that he received a call from Edwards when the former senator found out Hunter was pregnant in the summer of 2007.
"He said she was a crazy slut and there was a 1-in-3 chance that it was his," Young said.
He said he and Edwards had worked together to hide the affair beginning in the fall of 2006, when Edwards' wife, Elizabeth, found out and demanded Hunter be fired. Elizabeth Edwards died in 2010 of breast cancer.
The plan, Young said, was to provide Hunter with an income and help her travel to see Edwards while he was on the road. Rachel Mellon, a banking heiress, financed the deception. Young's wife, Cheri, would deposit the checks in the family account and give Hunter a monthly allowance of $5,000 to $12,000.
The Youngs became nervous about the arrangement, Young testified, especially when they got a check for $100,000.
Edwards told Young that "he had talked to several campaign finance experts and that it was legal," Young testified. "It felt and smelled wrong. But he knew more about the law than we did."
Young said he went along with the plan because he was taken with the rewards that would come from having a friend who was "the most powerful person on earth."

Veteran Amarillo-area newspapermen Jon Mark Beilue and John Brooks will see their names in a place other than a byline Friday night.
The pair will be inducted into the Panhandle Press Association Hall of Fame during a banquet of the 103rd PPA Convention at Holiday Inn Medical Center West.
Groom native Beilue has worked 32 years for the Amarillo Globe-News, where he is an award-winning and popular general columnist.
The 54-year-old Texas Tech graduate has enlightened readers with his gifted writing and storytelling, first as a Globe-News sports writer, then as sport editor for 17 years before moving into his columnist role in 2006.
Beilue has the rare ability of providing a unique opinion — many times through humor — on a wide variety of topics ranging from the technical to the heart tuggers.
Beilue has not lost his first passion — the sports world — regularly blogging on athletic events and handling radio color duties for high school football.
AGN Media Publisher Les Simpson applauded the PPA for honoring Beilue.
"Jon Mark is a tremendous asset to the newspaper and the community," Simpson said. "We are very fortunate to have him tell the stories of Amarillo and the Texas Panhandle. This award is well-deserved. His contributions are remarkable."
Brandon Hughes, vice president of audience for AGN Media, praised Beilue for his ability to connect with readers.
"What a well-deserved honor for Jon Mark Beilue," Hughes said. "A columnist and sports writer for more than 32 years for the Amarillo Globe-News, Jon Mark has touched readers across the Panhandle community in countless ways. The staff of AGN Media holds Jon Mark Beilue in the highest regard and are extremely proud that he has been honored by the Panhandle Press Association."
AGN Media Managing Editor Cary Varnado said it's been his blessing to work with Beilue.
"Jon Mark is a consummate storyteller," Varnado said. "Readers are drawn to his work because of his ability to cut through the mundane circumstances of events to pull out the emotional core that touches our hearts. His easy-going, front-porch vernacular connects him to his readers in a very personal way.
"I'm very pleased to see him honored in this way."
Brooks' stellar career began in 1967 at the Castro County News in Dimmitt. The multi-award-winning writer worked for the News during three different stints, along with seven years at the Hereford Brand.
Brooks left full-time work for The Brand in 2012 due to health reasons but still writes a weekly column. He is known for teaching readers something new every time he pens a story. Plus, he is a walking encyclopedia of Texas Panhandle history and information.
Brooks was heavily involved with PPA, serving as president in 1992 and on the board in 1987-1993.
Hereford Brand General Manager/Managing Editor Dana Jameson said Brooks is a great man with a good heart toward people who possesses excellent writing skills.
"John is a prolific writer," Jameson said. "Anybody who has had any contact with John, or read anything he has written, or listened to any of his broadcasts, they have learned from it. They have come away enlightened. The man can just write."

California aims to "bottle sunlight" in energy storage push
California, whose green ambitions helped the solar and wind industries take root, is taking an essential next step by proposing a sharp rise in energy storage to better integrate renewable power with the rest of the grid.
Power from sun and wind fluctuates dramatically, so capturing it for later use makes the supply more predictable.
"We can't just rely on sunlight," Governor Jerry Brown told the Intersolar conference in San Francisco last month. "We've got to bottle the sunlight."
Report: Solar energy costs dropping nationally
The Business Review
The cost of going solar has dropped in New York by 44 percent over the past five years, a trend that's playing out across the country.
Solar energy has become one of the fastest growing industries in the nation, according to a report by the Department of Energy's Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory.
It was up to 14 percent cheaper to install residential and commercial solar systems last year than it was in 2011, according to the report. Prices have dropped an average of up to 7 percent per year since 1998.

This article is about the shell in eye replacement surgery. For the term in chemistry, see Conformational isomerism.
|This article does not cite any sources. (August 2012) (Learn how and when to remove this template message)
Conformer is a clear plastic shell fitted after Eye removal operation if the final artificial eye is not available at the time of surgery to hold the shape of the eye socket and allow the eyelids to blink over the shell without rubbing the suture line. The conformer shell holds the shape ready for the artificial eye. The conformer shell will be worn for six to eight weeks after surgery. Some ocularists will make a temporary artificial eye which can be worn as the conformer shell.

Build Your Own Wood-Fired Pizza Oven
There are some people who dream about fame and fortune and others who dream about the perfect pizza. I tend to be part of the latter crowd and have often dreamed about having my own wood-fired pizza oven in the backyard. The problem is that you need a fortune (upwards of $2000) if you want to buy one pre-assembled.
The other option is to build your own as the flickr user above has so beautifully done and documented. Although I'm no handyman, I'm thinking that I could eventually pull something like this off with practice (i.e. 5 attempts or less).
For those of you ready to dive in already, you can find step-by-step instructions here as well as a tools and materials list.
