This is getting a little ridiculous, no?
As today's game slowly got away from the Yankees and Andy Pettitte -- a game that once again dropped the Yanks below .500 -- word came down that Phil Hughes was placed on the 15-day DL.
In a desperate attempt to spin this positively, let's try this:
At least Hughes will get some time to rest -- mentally and physically -- and his injury makes the question of "what's wrong with him?" a little easier to stomach for now.
As an added bonus, Yanks fans have been calling for Darrell Rasner all season -- for Scranton, he is now 4-0 with a 0.87 ERA, 0.77 WHIP and 27 strikeouts to just six walks in five starts and 31 innings.
And he's about to get his chance.

Your'e overdoing your carbs, simple as that. For example, I would never dream of having 2 muffins for dinner. One muffin alone could be about 400 calories- so you are ingesting a possible 700-1000 calories right there of empty, nutrient lacking calories. And why applesauce- why not just an apple?
If you are not into fasting- which I understand- that's a hard thing for some to agree with- that's fine. You don't have to go hungry. But your choices in foods could be much better as far as substituting some of that very unnecessary stuff.
Actually these days I would never dream of having 2 muffins, period! LOL
Sharon--I've done a tiny bit of IF'ing in the past and am planning on stepping it up in that department. And I ate the applesauce b/c I had a bunch of apples that were about to go bad, so I chopped them up and cooked them on the stove with some vanilla & cinnamon. And just fyi--these were the ingredients from my muffins: almond flour, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, vanilla, honey, bananas, eggs, coconut oil.

That's cool- I envisioned the kind of muffins you get from 711. LOL
i find milk that isn't full fat impossible to digest. not only that, but nutritionally worthless.. not to sound like a jerk! it's kind of a waste of calories, and i believe it even has carb content. give it away and get yourself some good stuff! you're worth it! my diet is far from perfect, but it sounds like with a little refining, you're well on your way to a great one!

Sheriff's detectives are seeking to identify two suspects in a robbery that occurred earlier this week. On Monday, November 19, 2012 shortly after 4:00 p.m., a woman and a young man entered the Why Pay More Cigarette Store in the 5000 block of Auburn Boulevard, and committed an armed robbery.
The suspects entered the business and selected items of merchandise to purchase. Upon arriving at the counter with the items, the female suspect pulled a handgun from her bra, and demanded money from the employee. The clerk refused to open the cash register, which led to the female suspect hitting a low-hanging surveillance camera with the handgun, and threatening to shoot the clerk. The young male suspect then told the female suspect to shoot the clerk.
In response to this threat, the store clerk opened the cash register. The female suspect reached into the drawer and removed money. The male suspect fled with clothing items from the store, and the female left with money. The female suspect is described as a black woman between 28 and 32 years old, 5'6″ to 5'8″ tall and weighing approximately 165 pounds. She wore a gray suit jacket and gray dress suit shorts with black boots. The male suspect is black, believed to be 16 to 18 years old, between 5'7″ and 5'9″ tall and weighing approximately 150 pounds. He wore a black Chicago White Sox beanie and black clothing.
Anyone knowing the identity of the suspects pictured in the attached surveillance video is asked to contact the Sheriff's Robbery Bureau at (916) 874-5115. Persons having information may also leave an anonymous tip at www.sacsheriff.com, use their Smartphone apps, text a tip to 274637 (CRIMES) and enter the keyword SSD, or call (916) 874-TIPS (8477).

Physicists and astronomers are excited and fascinated by what they observe in nature. Sharing this excitement with students and the general public is rewarding to them as individuals and is extraordinarily beneficial for democratic societies. Educational outreach plays an increasing role in the careers of working physicists; many are already involved in outreach, and all are being encouraged by the federal granting agencies to share the excitement of their research fields with a broader audience.
A two-week workshop at the Aspen Center for Physics in the summer of 2004 brought together physicists from several disciplines, including astronomy; K-12 educators; informal science educators; developers of educational materials; as well as professional science communicators from the media and publishing worlds. The participants shared their ongoing education and outreach projects, as well as their needs and wishes, in a mixture of presentations, demonstrations, and informal discussions.
The rich panoply of education products and services produced by physicists and their organizations was apparent even from this relatively small cross-section. However, the full potential impact of these efforts may not be realized if the target audience, such as teachers, are either not aware of the opportunities or have difficulty implementing them due to time or curriculum needs. Hence, much of the discussion centered on access rather than new education initiatives. Teachers need one-stop shopping for materials and programs, as well as stronger grass-roots locally tailored partnerships with universities, research institutes, and museums. One of the proposals for addressing these and other needs is a small national virtual institute for physics education and outreach, patterned along the lines of successful virtual research institutes, such as the virtual Institute for Complex Adaptive Matter (ICAM).
EJH is supported by an NSF AAPF. The Aspen Workshop was funded by NSF's MPS Directorate, ICAM, and the APS.

Hewlett-Packard Australia Compaq Nc8230
- Lightweight, long battery life
- Easy to ruin the cheap screws on the underside of the laptop, difficult to remove the battery
Bottom Line
A handsome design and quick-launch presentation button make this wide-screen notebook a great fit for business travellers.
Price$ 2,995.00 (AUD)
Special Offers
If you yearn for a wide-screen notebook for business travel and don't mind that a 15.4" model tends to engulf your lap or airline tray table, the HP Compaq Business Notebook NC8230 could be your perfect travelling and boardroom companion. It's relatively lightweight for a 15.4" widescreen notebook, at 2.71 kilograms (not counting the power adapter).
We looked at an NC8230 with a WSXGA+ 1680 x 1050 resolution screen, which is just right for most work. (HP offers two other widescreens: 1280 x 800 WXGA, and 1920 x 1200 WUXGA.)
At their default Windows settings, icons and screen elements are smaller than average at this resolution, but not eyeball-bustingly tiny. You should be able to put in several hours of work at a sitting without eyestrain, especially if you spend most of your time in graphics programs.
The NC8230 delivers blessedly long battery life: five hours and 11 minutes on one charge in our tests, which is plenty of time to hammer out a presentation during a plane ride. A port on the bottom of the laptop accepts an optional second travel battery, which would double the notebook's battery life, according to HP (we did not test it).
In the boardroom, the black and graphite NC8230 with its art-deco power button cuts a handsome figure. A quick-launch presentation button with a user-settable power scheme will get your talk off to a smooth start. The speakers stylishly flank the keyboard; though the sound they emit isn't standalone speaker quality, it is loud and rich enough for small-group presentations, and you can control it with a nice set of keyboard volume buttons.
The NC8230 is among the few laptops that do justice to dual pointing devices. Its pointing stick, located in the centre of the keyboard, is an easy-to-steer nub with a finger-friendly texture. The traditional touchpad handles well, too. Each comes with its own set of mouse buttons, including a full-size third button in the middle for scrolling documents or zooming in CAD and animation programs; this eliminates the need for an external three-button mouse or a function key combination that requires two hands. All six mouse buttons sink deep into the case when pressed, unlike the stiff buttons we've found on many other laptops. If you prefer buttons with plenty of feedback, you'll love these.
The NC8230 offers all the basic connections you'll need: three USB 2.0 ports, a FireWire port, a TV-out port, and a stacked threesome of SD card slot, smart card security slot, and PC Card slot on the left-hand side. Bluetooth and Wi-Fi both come built in, and you even get an old-fashioned serial port.
The fixed right-hand side combination drive on our test unit let us view DVD-ROMs but burn only CDs; upgrading to a DVD burner is possible.
The NC8230 is one of the first HP laptops equipped with the new spring-loaded modular optical drive design. Just remove a security screw (which can remain uninstalled) and press the front of the drive to pop it out. It's the easiest way we've seen to swap modular bay devices.
Our review NC8230 came with 512MB of RAM, but it also offered one empty memory slot in a compartment on the bottom of the notebook. The hard drive is located in another easy-to-access compartment. Either of two optional bottom-mounting docking stations (a simple port replicator or a more advanced add-on) provide desktop convenience and additional ports.
We noted two minor design weaknesses: first, we had to take special pains to remove the bottom panels' small, cheap Phillips-head screws without stripping them. Second, removing the battery is a three-handed operation--you must hold open two sliding releases while simultaneously tugging out the battery.
Nevertheless, the NC8230 is a fine wide-screen portable; and when equipped with a 2GHz Pentium M 760, it can handle any type of mainstream work or heavy multitasking. Our review unit earned a WorldBench 5 score of 85; two similar laptops equipped with 2GHz Pentium M 755 CPUs--the Dell Latitude D600 and the Acer TravelMate 8000--scored 81 and 89, respectively.

First impression on unpacking the Q702 test unit was the solid feel and clean, minimalist styling.
Anthony Grifoni
For work use, Microsoft Word and Excel programs pre-installed on the device are adequate for preparing short documents.
Steph Mundell
The Fujitsu LifeBook UH574 allowed for great mobility without being obnoxiously heavy or clunky. Its twelve hours of battery life did not disappoint.
Andrew Mitsi
The screen was particularly good. It is bright and visible from most angles, however heat is an issue, particularly around the Windows button on the front, and on the back where the battery housing is located.
Simon Harriott
My first impression after unboxing the Q702 is that it is a nice looking unit. Styling is somewhat minimalist but very effective. The tablet part, once detached, has a nice weight, and no buttons or switches are located in awkward or intrusive positions.

The Delta breeze, which has dropped temperatures below average for most of this week, is expected to pick up on Wednesday.
Wake-up temperatures started off in the low to mid-50s.
The skies will remain smoky and hazy through the afternoon, as the region will see little change to the weather pattern.
Temperatures will hit the upper 80s. Normal for this time of year is about 94 degrees. A high of 89 is expected.
By Thursday, Sacramento will see the coolest day of the week as a weather system moves across to the north. By the weekend, conditions will heat up a tad into the 90s.

Sometimes, during the design process, it is advantageous to capture serial data from the design under simulation. The ISIS simulation environment contains a couple of external simulation devices that allow the design to interface serially.
The PROTEUS Virtual Terminal connects directly to the design under test and displays that data in a virtual terminal in the simulation environment. The COMPIM device connects to the design's serial data and sends it to the Windows host serial port. So in its intended use, the simulated design's serial data can been seen at the host's physical com port. In order to capture the simulated design serial data, one would then need to physically connect a PC or other device to the host running PROTEUS.
When analyzing the captured data it would be nice to capture the data generated by the design on the Windows host, as opposed to going out the physical COM port. The Windows virtual COM driver, com0com, enables just that.
com0com sets up two virtual com ports, connecting COMPIM to one and a Windows app to the other, a virtual null-modem connection is established between the PROTEUS simulated design and a Windows app. In this example, Hyperterm is shown as the Windows app and an EasyHDL program represents the simulated design generating serial data, which could just as easily be a PIC design driving the serial data.
The HDL program can be found in your EXAMPLES\Generator Scripts\Serial Data Generator subdirectory of your PROTEUS installation. Although I haven't explored it, com0com project has a com-to-tcp sub project which I suspect will enable your PROTEUS simulation to send your serial data to a tcp connection on your Windows host. One can imagine remote data logging with this configuration.

: are certain version of said windowmanagers better performers, less
: buggy? any recommendations or suggestions would be great, thx all..!
KDE works reasonably well on my Octane (2x250, 256M). It's a bit of a chore to
compile though, set aside a few days if you go that way. I think there's
precompiled packages somewhere too (not on freeware.sgi.com though).
The biggest problem I find is that most GUIs these days seem to be designed to
be displayed on monitors only slightly smaller than the entire eurasian land
mass, so even 1600x1200 can start feeling a bit cramped and cluttered. It seems
like nothing SGI sells short of an Onyx* system can break the 3MPixel barrier.
Kind of a minor bummer, when a $50 PC vid card comes with a 400MHz RAMDAC.
Of course, it's not like many monitors are breaking the 3MPixel barrier either,
so I guess I can't complain too much.

Published March 13, 2014
A diagnosis of acute appendicitis, based solely on clinical observation. A mother's reluctance to undergo Caesarean section based on cultural beliefs about going through labor. An interest in birth control methods that don't require a husband's approval.
These are just a few of the dramatic clinical experiences UB medical students have had while taking part in overseas medical programs.
Students will discuss some of those experiences tonight at "Global Health Electives and Medical Relief Projects," an event that aims to promote volunteer medical opportunities available to UB medical students and educate them about some of the situations they may encounter overseas.
"Interest in global health is definitely up at UB," says David Holmes, director of global health education and clinical associate professor of family medicine in the School of Medicine and Biomedical Sciences. He says about a quarter of UB medical students participate in an overseas medical program, up from the teens a few years ago.
Some of those students worked at clinics in the Democratic Republic of Congo, Uganda, Lebanon and Peru. Two residents in UB's family medicine program recently staffed clinics in Haiti and Mexico.
In her first year at UB, Julie Garchow, now a fourth-year medical student, became co-president of UB's International Health Interest Group, working with several like-minded classmates to help facilitate overseas rotations.
"We wanted to make it as easy as possible for medical students to do global rotations," she says. Members also gather regularly to discuss issues in international health.
The value of these overseas rotations is hard to overstate, she explains. Last month, she returned to UB after spending four weeks in rural Uganda.
Garchow and two UB classmates worked in a hospital's maternity, pediatrics and adult internal medicine departments. Because of the lack of medical practitioners of all kinds, the medical students are called upon to play a more active role, under supervision, in an overseas clinic than they can in the U.S.
"In the U.S., a medical student wouldn't get to do first assist on a C-section because that's what the interns and residents will do," Garchow says. "So when you're a medical student you're usually delivering the placenta, not the baby. But in Uganda, we were able to do first assist on C-sections. We had the opportunity to have more responsibility, all the time under supervision from a physician."
The students also worked with many HIV patients with comorbidities, including malaria and typhoid. "You see diseases that you just don't see here in the U.S.," says Garchow. While working with HIV patients in Uganda, she developed a color-coded labeling system for HIV medications to enable patients with minimal literacy to know what to take when, even if they couldn't read the instructions.
The experiences drive home how powerfully culture and personal experience can impact medicine. While working at a remote mountain clinic in Haiti sponsored by the international medical relief organization Heart to Heart International, UB family medicine resident Alisha Razack optimized an older woman's hypertension medications and recommended some blood tests. The medications are provided for free by Heart to Heart. The woman's adult son was so thankful he broke down and cried, sharing his story of how his father had died of cholera and how he was trying to care for his mother.
Sometimes the cultural differences directly influence how receptive a patient is to medical care. "One woman needed an emergency Caesarean delivery, but she didn't want it," Garchow recalls. "We thought she was just scared, but then we found out that in her culture, people believe that if you don't push the baby out, you're not a woman. In that culture, laboring is a badge of honor." With encouragement and support, the mother did undergo the procedure and delivered a healthy baby.
Students are expected to pay for their travel and accommodations, but student fundraising efforts at UB are helping to offset these costs. This year, first-year medical students are raising funds to send a group to a clinic in Haiti; they have been so successful that they have money to spend on medications for the clinic as well. Another UB group of second-year students is going to Panama this spring to work with Floating Doctors, which provides free health care to isolated regions worldwide.
Holmes began leading overseas rotations with UB medical students in the late 1990s. Since then, he has led UB medical students on medical rotations in Haiti and the Dominican Republic; he also has done medical missionary work in Kenya, India and Costa Rica.
"Dr. Holmes is our biggest cheerleader," says Garchow. "When we wanted to start the International Health Interest Group, he and the Department of Family Medicine said, 'Tell us what you need. We'll help you.' Karen Devlin, the department's program coordinator, also has been extremely helpful and helps coordinate all the details."
UB medical students interested in volunteering overseas and joining the International Health Interest Group should contact Devlin at 829-2608 or firstname.lastname@example.com, or Holmes at 716-697-1884 or firstname.lastname@example.com.

Wine- and Citrus-Poached Pears with Triple-Crème Cheese
Servings: Makes 4
- 1 1/2 cups dry red wine
- 1/3 cup sugar
- 1/4 cup orange juice
- 1 3x3/4-inch strip lemon peel (yellow part only)
- 1 whole clove
- 2 firm but ripe medium-size pears, peeled, stems left attached, halved lengthwise, cored
- 1 tablespoon crème de cassis (black-currant-flavored liqueur; optional)
- 8 ounces triple-créme cheese (such as Explorateur, Saint André, boursault or Brillat-Savarin), cut into 4 wedges
Combine wine, sugar, orange juice, lemon peel, and clove in heavy medium saucepan. Bring to simmer over medium heat, stirring until sugar dissolves. Add pear halves to saucepan. Cut out round of parchment paper same size as saucepan. Place parchment round atop pears, pushing edges of parchment into liquid to prevent edges from curling up. Reduce heat and barely simmer until pears are tender when pierced with knife, about 12 minutes.
Using slotted spoon, transfer pears to bowl. Boil liquid in saucepan until slightly syrupy and reduced to 3/4 cup, about 14 minutes. Cool syrup to room temperature; stir in crème de cassis, if desired. Pour syrup over pears. Cover and chill at least 12 hours, turning pears occasionally.
Thinly slice pear halves lengthwise almost to stem end, leaving stems attached. Spoon generous 1 tablespoon pear syrup onto each of 4 plates. Top each with 1 pear half, pressing gently to fan. Serve with cheese.

Μῆνιν ἄειδε, θεά, Πηληϊάδεω Ἀχιλῆος
"Wrath! Sing the wrath, goddess, of Peleus's son Achilles…"
Just as Helen's face launched a thousand ships, this opening line of the Iliad launches its readers into a world both distant and familiar: the world of the Trojan War and its aftermath, as portrayed by Homer. The St. John's College Summer Greek Institute aims to guide its participants on a journey deep into Homer's world, first by developing proficiency in Homeric Greek, and then by applying their newly developed proficiency to a study in Greek of the Iliad and its enduring themes.
It is a rigorous and rewarding nine-week study in the Homeric Greek language. The course is designed for students new to the language, and those who need to refresh their skills.
Intensive language programs across the country are known for their high attrition rate and extreme stress. St. John's College believes that a reasonable, humane pace in an engaging environment is more conducive to real thought and an overall successful learning experience than a hurried attempt to "just get through it." That said, the program will still require a great deal of dedication and hard work, as one might expect of any attempt to learn over a year's worth of an ancient language in a single summer. The program is not-for-credit.
The first four weeks of the class is an accelerated course in Homeric Greek for beginners, including students who have not previously studied Greek. This part of the course consists of grammar lessons, extensive drilling and exercises, and quizzes and examinations.
The remaining five weeks of the class focuses on carefully reading and translating selections from the Iliad and the Odyssey. As students translate these texts and continue to develop proficiency with Homer's language, they use seminar-style discussions to explore in greater depth their literary and philosophical qualities. Thus, the hard work done with Homer's language is increasingly rewarded by primary access to the treasures of his poetry. By the end of the class, successful students have acquired a solid foundation in ancient Greek, equivalent to at least one year's college-level study. This constitutes excellent preparation for both graduate school comprehensive exams and future reading in the original of other ancient Greek authors.
Classes are taught by full-time St. John's College faculty with extensive experience teaching Greek. Additionally, a teaching assistant will work closely with students to support the class work.
Class size is limited to 16 students to ensure a more engaged learning environment.
The Accelerated Homeric Greek Course is held at the St. John's College Santa Fe campus.
Classes will meet Monday through Friday from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m., with a 90-minute lunch break.
Wednesdays will be a half day to allow for extra study time, as well as to provide an opportunity to attend the college's summer lecture series, for those interested.
In addition to the approximately 25 hours of class time per week, students should plan on an equivalent amount of preparation time outside of class, memorizing vocabulary and paradigms and working on translation exercises.
Primary Text: Homeric Greek 4th edition, edited by Pharr, Wright, and Debnar. Copies are available for purchase in the St. John's College Bookstore. Prior editions of this text are not acceptable.
NOTE: Participants are asked to review English syntax and memorize the Greek alphabet before the first day of class. They are also encouraged to read Book One of the Iliad in translation before their arrival. Other preliminary study material and exercises may be sent out prior to the start of the course.
College students, graduate or undergraduate, especially those who need to make language requirements, and anyone 18 and older interested in learning Homeric Greek.
An application form is available for download here.
A complete application needs to include both the application and a letter of interest explaining your need or interest in the Accelerated Course in Homeric Greek.
Return both the letter of interest and completed application form to firstname.lastname@example.com, or mail to

Frequently Asked Questions
Frequently Asked Questions
How much do the tutorial sessions cost?
They are free of charge to all Dickinson State University students.
What subjects are covered?
Email us at email@example.com to get a copy of our class list. We'll respond to you ASAP during the work day (8 a.m. - 5 p.m.).
What kinds of things will/won't happen during a tutorial?
Every tutorial is different, depending upon your needs and the style of your tutor. Sometimes you'll be working on the details of a specific assignment, while other times the tutor may be helping you to improve your understanding of concepts, ideas, techniques, or problem solving skills. The tutor may also work with you to improve your study skills or manage your time more effectively. We try to be flexible in best accommodating your needs.
You are free to choose the topic(s) of the session, though the tutor may work with you to narrow it down to something manageable in the time allowed. Keep in mind that you can't do EVERYTHING in a single tutorial, and if you try to do too much, the session won't be that helpful. Thus, it is sometimes useful to spend a little time before your tutorial trying to identify the specific things you would like to work on.
Finally, we want you to succeed, and doing your homework for you doesn't really help that! For example, we are happy to help you to understand concepts well enough to be able to solve problems, and we can go through specific problems as needed, but coming to a session expecting the tutor to work out answers to 15 different math problems is probably not appropriate. As another example, we are happy to help you with any aspect of your writing, including brainstorming, outlining, organizing, grammar and usage, and formatting. However, it is not appropriate to drop off a paper and sit there for 50 minutes while the tutor edits it.
If you're still not completely clear about what happens in a tutorial, don't worry! Your tutor will be happy to help clarify things.
How long are the tutorial sessions?
You have the choice of 25 or 50 minute sessions (though there are some times during the week when a tutor's schedule may only allow for a 25 minute session).
Where can the tutorial sessions take place?
All sessions take place in the Tutoring Center. Come to the Lower Level of Stoxen Library and look for our Tutoring Center sign. We're pretty easy to find.
Do I need to make an appointment?
Appointments are not required. However, there is no guarantee a tutor will be available unless you make an appointment.
How do I make an appointment?
Come down to the Academic Success Center in the Lower Level of Stoxen Library. We'll be happy to help you! You can also set up an appointment from home. Tutoring appointments are always made through Accudemia. If you want detailed instructions, please email us at firstname.lastname@example.com. We'll be happy to send you a copy of our handy instructions sheet.
Can I use an off-campus computer to schedule an appointment?
Certainly! Simply click here and follow the directions.
Are the sessions one-on-one, or in groups?
We specialize in one-on-one tutoring. However, for some courses, group tutoring is helpful and entirely appropriate. If you're interested in being tutored as a group of two to four students, please talk to your tutor and/or contact Michelle Stevier-Johanson or Kayla Noah, the Tutoring Center coordinators. Contact information is found on the Tutoring Center homepage.
What if I can't make it to an appointment?
Please cancel the appointment, using the Accudemia system, as soon as possible. If you need assistance, please call (701) 483-2999, email us at email@example.com, or stop by the Academic Success Center. We'll be happy to assist you.
Is attending class required for tutoring?
Yes. You must be attending the course on a regular basis in order to be tutored in it.
How do I prepare for my tutoring session?
Bring whatever you need for your session: assignment sheet, textbook(s), source material. You will need to have a pen or pencil and paper with you. Come ready to work, and expect the tutor to assist and guide you (not do the work for you). Also keep in mind that the more work you do before the tutorial, the more you will get out of it.
What do I do if things aren't working out with my tutor?
On occasion, this happens. Tutors and tutees can bring different expectations to the session, or have very different learning styles.
If there are multiple tutors for your course, simply sign up with another tutor, and don't worry about offending the tutor with whom you worked first. We don't take these things personally.
If there is no other tutor for your course, contact Kayla Noah (for math and science tutoring) or Michelle Stevier-Johanson (for writing, social sciences, and other tutoring) to discuss the situation. We will work together to resolve whatever problem(s) you're having.
What if my tutor doesn't know the answer to a particular question or problem I have?
Keep in mind that our tutors are expert students, not professors. Although they've been successful in the courses for which they're tutoring, they will not know or remember every aspect of content material. If your tutor doesn't know the answer right away, this is a learning opportunity for both of you. During your tutoring session, you will work to find the answer together, and, in so doing, you will see what an expert student does when he or she doesn't know the answer.
If I have a question that is not covered here, what do I do?
Talk to tutor coordinators Michelle Stevier-Johanson and Kayla Noah, or contact any tutor and have the tutor bring your question to us.

Bentomat - Geosynthetic Clay Liners
From Environmental Products - Geosynthetic Clay Liners
(0 votes)
BENTOMAT Geosynthetic Clay Liners available in a wide range of configurations, meeting your project requirements. When designing with GCLs, engineers should consider shear strength, hydraulic performance and chemical compatibility in order to assure a stable, long-lasting and high-performing liner system. BENTOMAT can be configured with various components in order to ensure maximum value and performance. Not all projects have the same performance requirements for the lining system. BENTOMAT is available in a variety of product configurations to meet the needs of your project.
Features of BENTOMAT
- SupergrooveTM technology allows bentonite to migrate out and self-seam at the overlap
- Granular bentonite creates less dust during installation and is less likely to shift during needlepunch reinforcement
- Needlepunch reinforcements allows BENTOMAT to withstand shear stresses on steep slopes
- Fully hydrated GCL has a permeability of 5 x 10-9 cm/sec, approximately 20 times lower than a typical CCL
Standard Reinforced GCL
Bentomat ST
BENTOMAT ST is the most commonly specified GCL in the world, proving ideal for standard applications involving slopes up to 3H: 1V. BENTOMAT ST consists of a layer of VOLCLAY sodium bentonite encapsulated between woven and non-woven geotextiles, which are needle-punched together to provide internal reinforcement. The internal reinforcement minimizes clay shifting, thus allowing the GCL to maintain consistent low permeability and maximum performance under a wide variety of field conditions.
Bentomat DN
BENTOMAT DN is commonly used in some of the most demanding applications including canyon landfills in the western United States, where slopes are as steep as 1.5H: 1V. This GCL is reinforced and consists of a layer of VOLCLAY sodium bentonite between two heavier weight non-woven geotextiles, making this GCL suitable for applications requiring high internal and interface shear strength.
Non-Reinforced GCL
Bentomat 200R BENTOMAT 200R is a needle-punched GCL consisting of a layer of VOLCLAY sodium bentonite encapsulated between light-weight non-woven and woven geotextiles. This GCL is an excellent cost-effective alternative to compacted clay as the low-permeability liner under a geomembrane in applications with slopes up to 10H: 1V, or where high internal shear strength is not critical.
Composite Laminate GCL
Bentomat CL
BENTOMAT CL is a reinforced GCL consisting of two carrier geotextiles encapsulating a layer of VOLCLAY sodium bentonite, with a flexible membrane liner laminated to one side. This GCL provides excellent hydraulic performance and has puncture and tensile strengths beyond conventional plastic membranes. These characteristics make this GCL applicable for use in landfill covers, ponds and liquid containment projects with slopes up to 3H: 1V.
Bentomat CLT
BENTOMAT CLT is a reinforced GCL consisting of a layer of VOLCLAY sodium bentonite between two geotextiles and laminated to a textured HDPE geomembrane. The addition of the geomembrane to the GCL increases the hydraulic resistance, and the textured surface increases the interface friction between the GCL and adjacent substrate. These characteristics make this GCL ideal for more demanding landfill covers and liquid containment applications involving steep slopes.
Landfill lining
GCLs have become the gold standard clay component of composite lining systems used in industrial, hazardous and municipal solid waste landfills. Used alone or in combination with a geomembrane in a composite cover system, GCLs provide significantly lower permeability, improved ease of installation, an increased amount of usable space. In many cases GCLs are more cost-effective than traditional compacted clay liners. GCLs are also not subject to deterioration from differential settlement and freeze-thaw cycles,...
Geosynthetic Lining for Mining Industry
Geosynthetics are used in construction of various components of modern mining facilities, including process solution ponds, heap leach pads, stormwater containment, wastewater treatment ponds and closures. Harsh environmental conditions provide a challenge to engineers designing the projects. In addition, increasing environmental and cost pressures are requiring lining systems to achieve greater performance levels than ever. GCLs are rapidly becoming a desired component of mining liner systems because of the...
Coal Combustion Residuals Disposal for Power Plants
Coal combustion residuals (CCR) are generated during the power generation process and can include fly ash, bottom ash, boilerslag, and flue gas desulfurization (FGD) residuals. CCRs contain trace concentrations of heavy metals and therefore cannot be dumped or stored where rainwater can leach the metals. Liner systems can be used to contain the coal combustion by-products and protect them from leaching into the environment.
Geosynthetic Lining for Ponds
GCLs can be used for decorative ponds, golf course water features, fish ponds, water reservoirs, and wastewater lagoons. Their self seaming installation requires no specialized equipment, and their self-healing characteristics promote long life and high performance.
Geosynthetic Lining for Secondary Containment
GCLs can be used around and underneath secondary containment above ground petroleum storage tanks. of above ground storage tanks and are easy to install. Installation details and penetrations are easily handled using simple installation techniques and can be quite cost effective.
Geosynthetic Lining for Canals, Stormwater Impoundments and Wetlands
Composite laminated GCLs offer puncture and tensile strengths beyond conventional geomembranes. These GCLs offer the low permeability of a geomembrane combined with the high swelling and self healing characteristics of a traditional GCL. With their ease of installation, cost-effectiveness and resilience to physical and climate issues, GCLs are often specified in canals, stormwater impoundments or wetlands to control seepage and conserve valuable water where native soils are too permeable.
Geosynthetic Lining for Highway and Civil Applications
GCL can be used in highway and civil applications such as at airport de-icing facilities used to remove ice build up on the surfaces of planes. During the application process, glycol-based de-icing fluids can leak into local stormwater runoff, potentially causing pollution. CETCO GCLs were found compatible with de-icing fluid (glycol diluted 50/50 with water). GCLs can also be used to line roadway drainage swales for containment and prevent excessive percolation, thereby minimizing potential for groundwater...

The iPhone is a smartphone developed by Apple. The first iPhone was released in June, 2007 and an updated version has been released roughly every year since then. While the iPhone was originally only available to AT&T customers, the iPhone 4 was released on the Verizon network in February, 2010.
The iPhone has a sleek, minimalist design, and differs from other smartphones in its lack of buttons. Most operations on the iPhone are performed using the touch screen display. The only physical buttons include a sleep/wake button, a mute switch, volume up/down buttons, and a home button. All versions of the iPhone have a rear-facing camera, but the iPhone 4 introduced a front-facing camera, which can be used for video calls made using the FaceTime feature. The iPhone 4 also includes a 960 x 640 pixel "retina display," which has double the resolution of previous iPhone displays.
Internally, the iPhone runs the iOS, an operating system developed by Apple for portable devices. This allows the iPhone to run "apps," or applications developed specifically for the iPhone. Apps can be downloaded from Apple's App Store, which can be accessed through iTunes or directly from the iPhone's built-in App Store app. There are hundreds of thousands of apps available from the App Store, which provide the iPhone with limitless functionality.
An example of an iPhone app is the ChatSlang.com app, which provides meanings of chat abbreviations and emoticons.

Giving back to their communities is often important to people. Many donate their time to their favorite charities. One Florida man has decided to give back by spending six months on his bike.
J.W. Frye, 27, is embarking on a cross-continental cycling trek to raise awareness and money for non-profit hospice care.
Frye will pedal solo for 8,000 miles. His journey is taking him from the southern most point of the U.S. all the way to Alaska.
He came up with the idea for the trip after his mother received hospice care before losing her battle with cancer.
"About 18 months ago, I was wrestling with how can I possibly pay back the gifts that were so freely given to me and my family by hospice care, and what grew out of that was 'one bike, one cause'," Frye explained.
"I would love to show just how much life can be lived, how many people can be affected, and how much change you can wrought in the world in six months," he added.
The six-month time frame is important to Frye. Medicare provides hospice care to people with just six months to live.
Frye plans to travel 70 to 75 miles a day to accomplish his goal in that time.

Expand Medicaid now, Black legislators say
The more than 800,000 Floridians who make too much to qualify for Medicaid and too little to get subsidies under the Affordable Care Act also known as ObamaCare are caught in a stand off between the federal government and the Florida Legislature. Florida Governor Rick Scott has refused to expand Medicaid, which would provide billions in federal funds to cover the costs of insuring people who are stuck in the health-care donut-hole.
Say yes, give Florida a minimum wage raise
In his State of the Union Address, President Barack Obama said, "Say yes. Give America a raise." I could not agree more. It is time to give Florida a raise. I have filed House Bill 385 to raise the minimum wage to $10.10 per hour in Florida. More than 1 million Florida workers would benefit from this increase because they are now earning less than $10.10 per hour. Florida has the second highest number of people making minimum wage after Texas, mostly because of the large number of workers in hotels, restaurants and other service industries.

The dark world of transfer gossip
How the media uses fans' enthusiasm
As the new season draws closer the level of transfer gossip flying around intensifies. Newspapers fill their pages and websites with rumour regularly presented as fact. Often these stories have no quotes to give them a foundation. If they do they are normally unattributed. The rise of the internet and Twitter has only served to heighten the competition, with many manipulating search engines to draw in the page views. EPL Talk have looked in to the press and their transfer gossip.

when I was a little kitten I meowed to much and I had a MEGA flea problem, so my old humans just abandoned me at another house in the neibhor hood. a tall human found me screaming at the top of my lungs and put me in a room. in the morning a little human played with me and we became friends! now shes my owner!(also they know that I came from a house down the road because theres a cat that lives there thats IDENTICAL to me but just a bit bigger) Five months after my one year birthday I started crossing the street over to the field, there I would meet a few cats from the neighborhood and we would hunt! one day I wasnt looking, and my sister Bitsy did her best to tell me that I wasnt being smart crossing the road. I just wandered right across, and a car came and hit my head. I became an angel kitty. I watched as my human was headed to her very last cross-country meet of the season. It was early in the morning. They found me on the road. Her dad buried me and that day i did my best to help her get a GREAT place in the race! she got 23rd out of 40 or fifty girls! Ice Cream was a great cat and I miss him very much, I wish he had stopped going over to the field across the road. I miss him SO much. Ice Cream is now an angel kitty!

Medimix International Social Media Director to Present at EyeforPharma e-Marketing Europe Summit, Berlin- March 3-4th, 2010
Miami, FL (February 28, 2010) Medimix International CEO, Henry Gazay, announced today that Alex de Carvalho, Medimix Social Media Director, has been selected to speak at the EyeforPharma e-Marketing Europe 2010 Summit, Berlin (March 3-4), and will present "An Eye for Social Media: From Lab throughout the Lifecycle." The two day conference is expected to draw key decision-makers from the pharmaceutical industry to discuss how social media strategies can help them respond to the challenges of transforming their business culture from product-focused to customer-centered.
Alex de Carvalho, an adjunct professor of social media at the University of Miami School of Communications, is an acknowledged expert on social media related projects and builds social networks from business planning to launch. In his role at Medimix, Alex has developed and manages Scanbuzz, the first online tracking service for reputation management, blogger relations, and brand monitoring in the life sciences.
The conference theme, "Engage Physicians and Consumers with Innovative e-marketing and Social Media Strategies," highlights the ever-increasing role that social media plays in marketing and public relation strategies. However, pharmaceutical companies as a whole have lagged far behind other industries in developing a social media presence and creating a dialogue with their customers.
Alex's presentation will focus on the five main steps marketing executives should consider when developing a social media strategy in the pharmaceutical sector. It will provide strategic advice and practical tips, from listening of the online the buzz to going through legal implications of social media, and offer actionable takeaways for immediate implementation by pharma marketers.
"Social media is spreading in every industry, and the pharmaceutical sector, despite being much more regulated than others, is no exception," comments Henry Gazay, CEO of Medimix International. "Manufacturers, distributors, but also regulators and payors have to adapt quickly to this new marketing paradigm which presents both challenges and opportunities. We are very excited to see Alex presenting such an interesting paper in Berlin and look forward to many other interactions with our clients on this particular subject in the year 2010."
Medimix international has developed specific tools to harness the social media revolution in the healthcare sector, including Scanbuzz (www.scanbuzz.com) and Voxmed, a new social network platform exclusively for healthcare professionals worldwide. Both solutions will be presented in Berlin.

Given the past few months they've spent in the spotlight, it's a good thing the Gosselin kids can fend for themselves. Just ask their dad, Jon, who explained how his three sons, Aaden, Collin and Joel, 5, survive a house in which they're outnumbered by their fellow sextuplet siblings, Hannah, Leah and Alexis, and older sisters, twins Mady and Cara, 8. "They know their place," he told PEOPLE. "Why risk fighting with the girls?" Just don't call them pushovers. "They'll get their payback," Jon said. "They'll fill the girls' strollers with rocks and purses with dirt."
Sadly, their mom and dad have yet to find such simple conflict resolution. The stars of the reality hit Jon & Kate Plus 8 spent the weekend of their 10th wedding anniversary 150 miles apart. On June 12 (the actual anniversary), Kate and the kids filmed scenes for the show at their Wernersville, Pa., home. A day later Jon had lunch with an older male friend in the Palisades Center mall in West Nyack, N.Y. "Jon was on the phone most of the time and was definitely talking to his kids," says a waiter. Friends say Jon's absence speaks volumes. "I thought they'd weather it for the publicity, to put out the flames," explains one pal. "Frankly, Jon is tired of the attention, he's tired of the marriage."
For now, the kids, who were seen frolicking in an inflatable castle over the weekend, seem blissfully unaware of any strife. "They're really oblivious to most of this," insists a source close to the family. "Jon and Kate are very careful to protect them and ensure that they're safe and happy." Still, friends hope that the future may be brighter. Says one: "I would really like to see them get out of the limelight and live as normal lives as possible."

The New England region experienced some hot and humid weather over the past couple days, until a storm came through last night and cooled temperatures. So what did I do to survive the warm temps? I went running.
It was wonderful. My route is short, just over 3 miles, and completely flat, no hills, just one foot in front of the other sort of deal. And, to be accurate, it is more of a "jog" rather than a "run" since my pace is never that brisk. There is something about calling what I do jogging that makes it sound so uncool and then, I have to say I went "yogging" today because jogging reminds me of Will Ferrell as Ron Burgundy in Anchorman saying:
"Veronica and I are trying this new fad called, uh, jogging. I believe it's 'jogging' or 'yogging.' it might be a soft j. I'm not sure but apparently you just run for an extended period of time! It's supposed to be wild."
On Monday, about a mile from my endpoint, the endorphins kicked in, or I was hallucinating, but I think it was endorphins and just an early onset runner's high due to the heat. I haven't done a long run in a while, but a true runner's high, like the one I experienced the other day, usually hits me around mile 9. So, the heat accelerated the process, which is good.
By yesterday, when things got really hot, I still planned on going for a yog. But here is the thing: Heat and running I can take, but heat, running, and a steak and a beer an hour earlier are not manageable for me. As addicted as I was to my runner's high over the last few days in the balmy weather, this junky could not overcome what the Longhorn dealt me. Today, I am only eating veggies.
What do you do to beat the heat?

DENVER -- Pro-life organizations play different roles in the effort to end abortion in our country. One group, 40 Days for Life, has committed to praying and standing vigil outside the second largest Planned Parenthood clinic in the country.
Those who have gathered at 40 Days for Life vigils, like the one in Denver, spend most of the time praying.
"It gives you an actual concentrated, dedicated way to come and pray," 40 Days for Life Denver's Annette Bryce told CBN News.
But every once in a while you'll hear a heartbreaking story, like the one a young man shared with Bryce at a vigil.
"He said, 'My girlfriend had an abortion because she said I couldn't marry her because I didn't have a job. And I told her that I would still find a way and support her and save the baby. And she had an abortion. The next day, I got a job,'" Bryce recalled.
Some attendees, like Silent No More coordinator Julie Averill who's had three abortions, said they're trying to save women from making the same mistake they did in aborting their own children.
"Women are naturally nurturing...mothers," Averill said. "There's always that hole when you aborted a child or terminated a pregnancy."
"You can live for years and deny it and try to bury it and go through your life and do 'normal' things, and live a pretty normal life," she continued. "But it's always buried; deep-seated, deep down, where you never get over it."
But there are also sweet stories of success, like that of one woman in Monsignor Bernard Schmitz's own Mother of God parish.
"She was considering an abortion," he recalled. "She heard a prayer for an end to abortion and for protection of human life and decided not to abort the child."
Rosalinda Lozano, 40 Days for Life's Denver coordinator, said one such change of heart sticks in her memory. It involved a woman named Angelica who was secretly pregnant and had told no one she was getting an abortion.
"Sunday night her mother called her and said, 'Angelica, please, do not do anything to that baby,'" Lozano recalled.
"She said, 'I have prayed to our Lord and when you get to that clinic' -- and she'd never told her mother she was coming - 'When you get to that clinic you will see people praying for you and those people were sent by God,'" she continued.
"And she said, 'When I came around the corner on Monday, I saw you kneeling down and praying,'" Lozano said.
Angelica had her baby. Such stories keep many of these prayer-warriors coming back.
"I feel like it gives the women hope when they see us out here praying, when they know that we're here giving of our time for them. I think it makes a difference," Lozano said.
Bob Gilson, coordinator for 40 Days for Life in Boulder, Colo., agreed.
"It's enormous," he said. "You know, there's no judiciary or police force that can stop a prayer."
Gilson said if believers knew the affects their prayers could have, many more would attending the 40 Days for Life vigils nearest them.
"There are babies' lives being lost," he said. "There are women suffering from it. There are people who have had abortions, lose relationships, have trouble with substance abuse, or suicides; the list goes on and on."
There's still plenty of time left for those who want to join in. The 40 Days campaign continues through the Sunday just before Election Day.
As a result of the 40 Days for Life vigils, some 6,000 babies have been saved, about 70 abortion workers have quit their jobs, and a couple dozen abortion facilities have closed down.

The couple's secret? Planning.
It started "last December," said Elli Jafari, general manager of the midtown restaurant Le Cirque. "We really kept the secret well. Even my best friends didn't know about it."
The ball got rolling "one night," said Jafari, when "Beth got up when they were leaving, and she stopped me and she said, 'Would you be my wedding planner?' And I gasped. … I've never done weddings." Even so, "I said, 'Sure, why not?' "
The bride- and groom-to-be ended up coming to the restaurant – which, in various locations, has been a Manhattan power spot since the Reagan Era – "once a month," says Jafari. "Beth is vegetarian. She eats fish, but not shellfish or meats. She's an animal activist, so she wanted the menu to be animal friendly."
After several tastings from chef Christophe Bellanca, the final menu was selected four months ago.
Stern Is Sweet"At first I had no idea what I was doing. But I wanted everything to be very romantic," says Jafari, who considers Stern, despite his shock-jock rep, "the sweetest person I've met in my life. He is so sensitive and sweet."
As such, "I needed this room to be romantic." With florist Floralies Inc., "We built a tree in the middle of the room, wrapped in 2000 weeping willows drooping down over the guests' heads [with] white orchids hanging down. We created a chandelier of two- to three-thousand white orchids and candles in small lanterns. The room looked like it was out of a fairy tale."
Jafari – before going to Le Cirque, she helped open Spago in San Francisco, the Bellagio in Las Vegas and Pearl and Nikki Beach in Miami – says when the bride saw the room on her wedding day she started "crying from excitement. She never saw anything like it before."
Jafari even picked her bouquet: a very tight bunch of 20 deep-purple calla lilies.
And the groom? "He was just very sweet. He was nervous. I know Howard by now. When he walked in, I've never seen him like that. They were really happy. Both glowing."
The MenuFor dinner, the first course was a tuna Tataki, followed by scrambled eggs with white truffles, as well as a pasta dish, tortelloni with Taleggio cheese, from northern Italy. The main course was striped bass with caviar. And, most important of all: 200-300 bottles of wine and champagne.
"It was one big party," says Jafari. "It was fantastic. A lot of energy. It wasn't your typical sit-down wedding. It was wild fun, high energy, high emotions. One big party – and a wedding on top of that."

Manny Harris transitioned from leading the D-League in scoring straight to providing solid minutes for the LA Lakers.
The Lakers picked Harris up to deal with their depth issues at guard, and he played decent basketball through two 10-day contracts.
Still, Harris was notified that he would not be retained for the remainder of the season after his deal expired on Wednesday, according to ESPNLosAngeles.com. That information in two, Harris proceeded to score 19 points on 8-of-11 shooting in the Lakers' Tuesday loss to the Minnesota Timberwolves.
"Not knowing whether you're going to stay or you're going to go, you're kind of scared to make mistakes," Harris said. "It's always better when you know either you're going to stay or you're going to leave. It's always better."

Funk and rap music will be amply showcased at the Spectrum on Sunday with a show featuring Midnight Star, Whodini, Doug E. Fresh and Eric B.
The vocal group Midnight Star makes music that ranges from the frantic funk of "Freakazoid" to the sultry balladry of "Feel So Good." The seven-member band's latest hit is "The Midas Touch" (Solar), which manages to combine elements of funk, rap and pop in one neat song.
Whodini's latest single, "Growing Up" (Arista), continues a string of successes for this Brooklyn-born, London-based act. Like Whodini's best music, ''Growing Up" is more melodic than most rap, and features smooth vocals with smart lyrics.

The cat's rescuers, Louise Clayton and her daughter Tegan Ellis, have taught the petite kitten and two of her furry friends to paint with their paws, all in name of charity.
According to Australia's Herald Sun, the mother and daughter pair, who have saved the lives of about 30 animals through their grassroots rescue efforts in Wagga Wagga, New South Wales, plan to help more needy animals in the area by selling their rescue cats' artwork.
"We put paint out for them and they walk across, and they play with balls we put out," Ellis said. "It's just a bit messy because once they finish they just wander off."
In just a week, the mini Monets have created six original paintings (all using non-toxic, kitty-safe paint) which are available for purchase through the Rescue Cat Art page on Facebook. Prices are available upon request by emailing firstname.lastname@example.com.
