Strings are an almost normal Java class with a few magic properties. The java.lang package has a class named "String" with documented methods. The special feature of strings, not shared by other classes, is that they have a literal (" ") and an operator (+).
A string literal is enclosed in double quote marks. The string can contain any sequence of Unicode characters.
In C, a string is an array of characters and the end of the string is determined by the location of the first character with the numeric value zero. In Java it is not unreasonable to assume that the internal implementation of the String class is based on an array of char values. However, the length of the string is an internal instance variable of the object. The length is set when the string object is created, and it can be extracted from the object using the "length()" method. A Java string can contain embedded characters with the value zero.
String caption = "What, me worry?";
Whenever the Java program source contains a string in quotes, it logically replaces it with a string object containing the characters whose length is determined by counting them. Architecturally, the previous statement is equivalent to:
String caption = new String("What, me worry?");
The Java Interpreter reserves the right to optimize things by avoiding the creation of a real object until one is really needed. When an expression contains several string literals, the interpreter may avoid the overhead of a dynamically allocated object to represent each of the intermediate string values.
In the previous examples, the name "caption" is not declared to be a string. It is declared to be a reference variable designating an object of the String class. This produces an unexpected result:
if (caption=="What, me worry?")
The expression is legal and will always evaluate to false. Programmers used to Pascal and other non-C languages will think that the expression tests the contents of the "caption" string. In Java, however, caption is a reference variable, the string literal is regarded as allocating an object, and the test compares two reference values to see if they designate the same object. The previous statement is equivalent to:
if (caption==new String("What, me worry?"))
Even though the object designated by caption happens to contain the same string content as the new string object created in this expression, they are distinct objects with different reference values. The correct way to test string contents is with the equals method:
if (caption.equals("What, me worry?"))
As with most of the wrapper classes, the value in a String object cannot be changed once the object is created. In most cases, the interpreter responds to any operation on a string by creating a new String object to hold the result. There is a separate class called StringBuffer that holds string-like objects but allows the program to change their contents.
When the operand on the left or right side of the "+" operator is a string, then the "+" is regarded as the concatenation operation. If the other operand is not already a string, it is converted to one. Then a new string is created containing the contents of the left operand concatenated to the contents of the second operand. If you need blanks, add them to the beginning or end of any literals in the expression.
It is no secret that the String class is implemented by internally storing the contents of the string in an array of characters. However, an object of type "char[]" is an array object and not not a member of the String class (although it can be converted to one trivially).
It is generally true that any object and any variable of a primitive type can be converted to a string. The Object class defines an instance method with the name "toString()" that returns a string representing, in some way, the content of the object. All other classes extend Object and either inherit this method or override it with a better method that generates more useful information.

Five Maoists killed in Gajapati districtTNN | Nov 15, 2012, 12.43 AM IST
The gun-battle took place at Bhaliagada forest in Mohana's Gobindapur panchayat area around 11 am when a police patrolling party came across a Maoist camp where Panda and around 15 of his associates were present, police said. "The Maoists opened fire and our men retaliated likewise. The gun-battle continued for an hour. We have recovered five bodies (all male) from the spot," DGP Prakash Mishra told TOI. "Their identities are yet to be ascertained, but we believe they were from Kandhamal and Gajapati districts and indoctrinated in the Maoist ideology," he added.
Police said the blood trail from spot of encounter to the jungle suggested that some of the Red rebels were injured. "We have seized an Italian-make pistol, which is supposed to be Panda's personal weapon. This forces us to suspect he was present during the gun-battle and could be injured as well," a senior police officer said.
Police sources said the security team, comprising district voluntary force (DVF) and policemen from Ganjam and Gajapati districts besides personnel of the elite Special Operations Group (SOG), were tipped off about the Maoist camp on Tuesday night. "We had information that several Maoists, including Sabyasachi Panda alias Sunil, Pradeep, Sagar and Nikita were present. All of them belonged to Panda's newly floated Odisha Maobadi Party (OMP)," a police officer disclosed. Panda launched OMP earlier this year after the CPI (Maoist) expelled him dubbing him a "renegade", soon after he caught international attention by staging the kidnap-then-release drama involving two Italian tourists in March.
DIG (southern range) R K Sharma said around 100 security personnel were still combing the bordering areas of Gajapati and Ganjam districts, where Panda has been operating for over a decade. "We have alerted police in the region to seal possible escape routes and also keep an eye on hospitals," Sharma informed. "We have information that Panda is trying to regroup and increase his cadre strength in Gajapati, Ganjam, Kandhamal and Rayagada districts," he added.
SP (Ganjam) Ashish Singh said police have seized four country-made guns, two 9 mm pistols, around 80 kg of explosives and 35 rounds of live cartridges from the spot.
Dandapani Mohanty, who was one of the two interlocutors during the Italian hostage crisis, described the encounter as "cold-blooded murders". "Policemen killed them when they were sleeping," he said. Sabyasachi's wife Subhashree, who was released as part of a swap deal during the Italian hostage episode, condemned the slayings. "The killings expose the government's double face. When a peace process is on and efforts are being made to bring him (Sabyasachi) to the mainstream, where was the need for such an encounter?" she asked.
This was the second major success for police. In 2011, they had claimed to have shot dead nine Maoists at Basangamali hillock in Kashipur area of Rayagada district.

He has now delivered both of my kids and I couldn't have asked for a better experience during both of my pregnancies. He explains things throughly and makes you feel comfortable and that you are well cared for and he has trained in one of the best training programs in the nation. He may be a bit late to the appointment at times but what some people don't realize that he does surgeries, sees patients in the office and delivers babies and sometimes he has to go out to deliver a baby, and when that time comes, he will be there for you, and I think some people don't understand that aspect of his profession.
He delivered my son 2 years ago and now he is going to deliver my daughter next year. He has always been caring and patient with me, and I cannot ask for a better doctor to take of me during this stressful time. I would give him 5 stars if I could!
I went for a second opinion on a procedure that a different doctor recommended, and Dr. Sakon expalained everything very clearly and I felt so comfortable that I decided to do the procedure with him. He was able to do the hysterecotmy with laparoscopy (laser surgery) and I was out of the hospital in one day and back to work in 2 weeks. I am sooo glad that I found him.

It's only January and the 2012 NFL Draft is still more than three months away, but speculation is already running rampant about what the Cleveland Browns will do with their first pick (fourth overall).
Will they pursue Heisman-winning quarterback Robert Griffin III and give up on Colt McCoy? Will they bring in running back Trent Richardson to bolster their injury-riddled rushing corps?
Will they hope wide receiver Justin Blackmon falls to them in order to finally get that big-play pass catcher fans have been clamoring for? Will they bite the bullet and draft an offensive tackle like Matt Kalil or Riley Reiff in the hopes of finally ending their problems on the right side of the line?
Or will they (perish the thought) trade down yet again?
The Browns have given us no indication of the direction they plan to go in just yet, so for now, it's up to us to make our best guesses.
Some of the aforementioned players will absolutely be off the board before the Browns pick, and unless the Browns are willing to trade up (unlikely), they will be out of our reach.
But some of them will be there, and while some seem more likely to last until the fourth pick than others, we won't know for sure until draft day, so it's worth looking at all the possibilities.
There are other players whose stock might rise between now and draft day and thus become attractive potential picks for the Browns, but for now, drafting one of these five players (and the possibility of trading down), seem the most likely scenarios.
Cast your vote in the comments below for what you want to see the Browns do with their first pick in the 2012 draft!

My interest is quite simple: could you please suggest good Interest sites, where I can order a nice chess set(preferably sites you have had any relationship with)?
Thanks for your time!
I hope this helps but I found this webstie to be very helpful in the past. They seem to hava nice selction of chess sets. http://blagazine.com/
I suggest an official USCF chess set, in case you ever want to play in a tournament. You can find them here:
Try Ebay. Use "staunton" in the search function to filter out all the goofy theme sets. Even if you don't buy on Ebay you will at least get a very quick lesson on the current chess market so you don't do something silly.
The London Chess Centre: http://www.chess.co.uk/
http://www.houseofstaunton.com/ is incredible!
I've had good luck with House of Chess.
http://www.wholesalechess.com on Thursdays they have good specials. I recently purchased an official Chess.com hat, Chess.com t-shirt, Premium tournament (large pieces, heavy, very nice) which comes with a case, and a DGT Easy Timer for under $100 bucks. Great deal.
Edit: $20 of the total price was to get faster shipping ;)
I like my set from wholesale chess.
Mojo, sorry I meant Mjo would have ordered the chess set 4 or 5 months
@ MJo If you in Estonia probably here good for you. (mail-order)
I bought my chessboard at antique shop and I cannot believe that til now that it was a chessboard used by the late GM Tal vs Botvinnik. How did i know? they both signed it in the wood buttom.
Lucky you! nice item to have :)
There is a site called chess.com and they have an online shop: http://www.chess.com/equipment
Need Chess Boards? I have wide selection of cool gaming boards! Free Shipping.
View them here: Mr. Low Man's Chess Sets
I should point out that
is a great site to really view the chess equipment that they have there.
Prices are reasonable and the photographic images are excellent, on average about 6-11 photographic images per chess set and a description to match.
I can personally vouch for the integrity and reliablity of USCF (2nd link) and can also assure you that they rarely have the best prices regardless of what you're looking for. I'm pretty sure the other sites here are all reputable esp chesscafe.com but you can always look up ratings/reviews of each dealer using a search engine if you don't get enough feedback here.
The Regency Chess Company in the United Kingdom:
The House of Staunton:
How about chess book publishers
These books definitely support the game of chess from every aspect for both the younger and the older players.

Jesus in Americaby Richard W. Fox
Where else but America do people ask: What Would Jesus Do? What Would Jesus Drive? What Would Jesus Eat? "This book is for believers and non-believers alike. It is not a book about whether one should believe in Jesus, but about how Americans have believed in and portrayed him."--from the Introduction Jesus in America is a comprehensive exploration of the vital role that the figure of Jesus has played throughout American history. Written by one of our most distinguished historians, Richard Wightman Fox, this book provides a brilliant cultural history of Jesus in America from its origins to today, demonstrating how Jesus is the most influential symbolic figure in our history. Benjamin Franklin understood Jesus as a wise man worthy of imitation. Thomas Jefferson regarded him as a moral teacher. The assassination of Abraham Lincoln, which occurred on Good Friday, was popularly interpreted as paralleling the crucifixion of Jesus . . . as one preacher put it, "Jesus Christ died for the world, Abraham Lincoln died for his country." Elizabeth Cady Stanton appropriated Jesus' message to champion women's rights. George W. Bush named Jesus as his favorite political philosopher--and several other GOP candidates followed suit--during the last presidential race. As we have seen in recent presidential elections, the name of Jesus is often thrust into the center of political debates, and many Americans regularly enlist Jesus, their ultimate arbiter of value, as the standard-bearer for their views and causes. Fox shows how Jesus influenced such major turning points in American history as: Columbus's voyage of discovery The arrival of the English puritans and Spanish missionaries The American Revolution The abolition of slavery and the Civil War Labor movements Social and cultural revolutions of the sixties and beyond The swelling tide of Christian voices in the politics and entertainment of today Fox gives an expert, lively account of all the ways that Jesus is portrayed and understood in American culture. Extensively illustrated with images representing the multitude of American views of Jesus, Jesus in America reveals how fully and deeply Jesus is ingrained in the American experience.

Other Plants »
Earlier known as a Victoria, this cultivar has been christened "Red Diamond." It is believed to be a cross between E. horemanni 'red' and E. x barthii. Decorative enough to be used as a single plant, a grove of these red and green beauties can create an impressive effect in a large aquarium. The new leaves are a deep red but turn green as they mature. The stronger the light the stronger the red coloring and the longer it lasts as a leaf ages. This plant easily sends up flower stalks. After the flowering, plantlets will form and these can be gently removed form the stalk and planted when they are about 2 inches in size. A large plant will tend to develop into two rosettes at the base. These can be cut apart and each planted.

Missoni For Target: The Sad & Sold Out In-Store Look
Because they launched the product on a Tuesday, there's a chance more product will roll back into stores before the weekend, but if you want to get your hands on some, I highly suggest being there when the doors open or having a friend go for you. Just to make sure that there wasn't a crazed group of shoppers at just this one store, we hit 3 additional Targets on the way home (at which point it all started to blend together). All were just as empty, if not more so and all anyone could tell us was, "We didn't expect things to sell through so fast." Really? You didn't because I'm pretty sure the magic ball called the internet could have told you that. My favorite pieces were the heavy glassware over with the dishes. They were substantial, not plastic like most of the rest of their serving pieces and were in the same vibe as the rest of the line throughout the store without having literal stripes and that fun chevron flavor. Did you brave the stores this morning? How was your experience? Let us know below! Image: Sarah Rae Trover

As summer comes to an end and our anticipation for fall grows more and more each day, many families start to think about having family photos taken. The holidays are rapidly approaching, the kids are back in school and the temperatures are a little bit cooler – fall is the perfect time to get professional photos taken. The number one question I get asked when a client books a session is, "What should we wear?!" Here are some tips to follow so that you can be on your way to fun, stylish and beautiful family portraits.
1) Color – It used to be that everyone wanted to coordinate - wearing white t-shirts and jeans or every family member wearing the same outfit. Those days are GONE!! Fall is a gorgeous time of year and the color of your clothes should reflect the season! Earth tones, jewel tones and bright vibrant colors are always a great option during this time of year. All these colors are deep, rich and photograph beautifully. Take a look at Pantone's Fall Fashion Colors for 2015 – these are rich and vibrant and all look beautiful together and give you some terrific ideas for a place to start!
The best portrait incorporates a few colors that are in the same family, have the same tone and coordinate with each other. You really want to stay away from being too "matchy matchy". Here are some great visuals of some family photo shoots where they have worn colors that coordinate beautifully together.
2) Texture – By adding texture to your outfit you are creating a visually stimulating photograph without much effort! Chunky sweaters, knit scarves, denim jeans, crisp button down shirts – these are all great for fall weather and help to add dimension and interest to your photos. Check out these beautiful families and how the texture in their outfits really makes the photograph pop!
3) Layers – Add a fashionable twist and keep warm at the same time! Layers are your key to fun, colorful and warm fall photos. Layers can help add pops of color and texture and are great for keeping warm (or cooling down, depending on what part of the country you live in) during the duration of your photo shoot. I love this family's fun use of layering! Another great part of layering is that you can take off a layer and have an entirely different look!
The final tip that I always give to my clients is to start thinking about everyone's outfits at least a week before the photo shoot. Lay them all out on the bed or ground so you can see how they look side by side. If you can, leave the outfits out for a day or two so you can have a second look and make any changes (or additional purchases) well ahead of your photo session. You want to be as calm and relaxed as you can be the day of the shoot, so do your homework ahead of time!
What will you wear for your Fall Family Photos?

Competition and Innovation: Pushing Productivity Up or Down?
Erik Brouwer
Tilburg Law and Economics Center (TILEC)
Henry van der Wiel
affiliation not provided to SSRN
May 18, 2010
CentER Discussion Paper No. 2010-52
This paper examines the relationship between competition, innovation and productivity for the Netherlands. We use industry level data aggregated from micro data as well as moments from firm level data for the period 1996-2006. We match innovation data from Community innovation Survey with accounting data to link innovative activities with performance at the industry level. We find strong evidence for a positive impact of competition on Total Factor Productivity (TFP) at the industry level. Competition directly increases TFP by reducing X-inefficiencies and removing inefficient firms from markets, but also through more innovation. Nonetheless, there exists an inverted U-curve between competition and innovation for the Netherlands, at least for manufacturing industries. Yet, our results indicate that a negative effect of competition on productivity through lower innovation expenditures arises only at very high levels of competition.

Andy Reid To Coach The Cowboys
In a twist that adds a little spice to Sunday night?s game between the Eagles and Cowboys, presumably outgoing Philly coach Andy Reid reportedly believes that he could be a candidate to coach in Dallas next year, if the Cowboys make a coaching change.
That?s the word from Mark Eckel of the Times of Trenton, who cites an ?extremely reliable source, who is close to Reid.?
?I know a lot of people think Andy is going to San Diego next year, and I can see that happening,? the source told Eckel. ?But I keep hearing Dallas. I think he can end up with the Cowboys. As a matter of fact, I think he will end up with the Cowboys, if Jason is fired.?

I can understand why people are opposed to Abby being on the first line, but he works his tail off every time his skates touch cold.
I think most are ok with the type of player there. A hardnose player that chases down pucks and gets in front of the net. The problem is Abby doesnt have the offensive side of the game you want a player to have to thrive with Hank and Pav. Sure he will score the odd goal but if you put a true power forward up there its an easy 40 goal player with those two.

Furnishing fabric
Daniel Walters & Sons (manufacturers)
Braintree, Essex
Jacquard-woven silk
Height 139 cm x Width 52 cm
Museum no. 4759A-1859
This high-quality woven silk was made by Daniel Walters & Sons in Braintree in Essex. Walters had been in business since 1820. By the mid-19th century the firm was recognised as the leading British silk manufacturers, and employed between 200 and 300 people. The firm produced silk furnishings for a number of important commissions, including Windsor Castle and Buckingham Palace. The firm was taken over by Warner & Sons in 1894.
The silk was used to decorate the lower walls of the Ballroom, as part of a decorative scheme designed by Ludwig Gruner (1801-1882) and James Pennethorne (1801-1871), incorporating the national devices of England (Tudor rose), Scotland (thistle) and Ireland (shamrock).
In 1845 the House of Commons granted £150,000 to enlarge Buckingham Palace, which was considered inadequate for royal entertaining. Between 1851 and 1856 a new suite of entertaining rooms was built on the south side of the Palace. This included a ballroom designed by Ludwig Gruner. Prince Albert had significant control over the scheme, which showed his interest in Raphael and Italianate design. The Queen's 'fine new room' was opened with a ball on 8 May 1856; both she and Prince Albert were delighted with it.

Running isn't easy. At times it hurts. When the pain is more than the typical sore muscles and fatigue, there's a problem. Thankfully there are answers. More often than not, the problems stem from the runner and not the activity itself.
I've had my share of pains through out my running career and thankfully I've had the help of a physical therapist to work through them and find their cause.
Like so many other therapists, assistant professor of physical therapy and director of the running clinic at Washington University in St. Louis, Gregory Holtzman, is helping runners overcome the technique problems that may be hurting them. In an article from MSNBC, we learned that Holtzman evaluates and records runners in his clinic to pin-point the issues that they are struggling with. He finds that there are five common issues that runners are diagnosed with in relation to their struggles.

Rep. Raul Ruiz speaks out against 2014 Ryan Budget
Dr. Raul Ruiz (D-Palm Desert) delivered remarks on the House floor today in opposition to the Fiscal Year 2014 Ryan Budget, which ends the Medicare guarantee for seniors. Here are his remarks:
"This Congress has a responsibility and an opportunity to work together to grow our economy and set this nation on a fiscally responsible path. However, the Ryan budget is irresponsible and places the burden of the deficit on hard-working American families and seniors. This plan ends the guarantee of Medicare.
"As an ER doctor, I know that many of my senior patients are struggling financially and rely on Medicare. Our priority should be reducing healthcare costs in order to make Medicare stronger and sustainable. But this budget transforms Medicare into a voucher program, shifting the cost of health care to our seniors.
"We must work together to protect and preserve Medicare, reduce our deficit, and decrease healthcare costs. I urge my colleagues to come together across party lines and put American families and our seniors first."

MAX CLIFFORD: One of the most high profile court cases this year which has been covered extensively by Get Surrey. The PR guru was jailed for eight years on Friday after being found guilty of a string of indecent assaults on teenage girls over a period of nearly 20 years.
The 71-year-old celebrity PR man from Hersham was convicted of eight of the 11 charges, dating back to between 1966 and 1984, following a six-week trial at Southwark Crown Court.
Judge Anthony Leonard told Clifford: "The reason why they were not brought to light sooner was because of your own dominant character and your position in the world of entertainment which meant that your victims thought that you were untouchable, something that I think you too believed."

A3 CRASH: Reminder of the serious road incident earlier. A driver and his passenger were airlifted to hospital with serious injuries after their car overturned near Guildford.
The pair were in a black Vauxhall Corsa when it crashed just after 12.30pm on Friday on the northbound carriageway of the A3 between Burpham and Burtncommon.
TRAVEL: Very slow traffic due to earlier broken down vehicle on the M25 clockwise between junction 11 A317 Chertsey and junction 12 on the M3. There's congestion on the M25 to Leatherhead. All lanes have been re-opened.
Lane one of four was closed a few hundred yards before the exit for the M3 before 3.30pm. Traffic has improved past the original scene, but some delays remain.
There's slow traffic in Guildford at various locations. These include the A281 Millbrook southbound between the A322 Onslow Street and A248 Kings Road.
It's also slow between the A320 Woking Road and Egerton Road and on the A320 Egley Road between the B380 Guildford Road and Heathside Road in Guildford town centre.
TRICYCLE: Some great news from earlier. A young disabled boy from Sunbury will have his "lifeline" returned to him as suppliers of his stolen tricycle have stepped in to save the day.
Moore's Cycles in Twickenham will replace Harry Walsh's trike for almost half the price and will deliver it in five weeks faster.
Harry, 12, suffers from a rare chromosome disorder that affects one in 80,000 males and is dependent on the trike for his enjoyment.
The Pashley Tri-1 was taken from the family home in Oakhall Drive on Saturday (April 26).
Ben Chapman, who works for Moore's Cycles, said: "It is shocking and they didn't even think about the repercussions of their actions.
"We are going to take quite a bit off [the price] for them."

FLY TIPPING: Surrey Heath's Executive Head for Community, Tim Pashen said: "Fly-tipping is a total disregard for the environment. To combat this inconsiderate behavior, enforcement exercises are carried out in conjunction with the police and other agencies in order to check the legality of trade vehicles and their loads on the borough's roads. I'm pleased that these latest checks were a success, and we intend to carry out more of them in the future."
Waste carriers can find advice on what they need to register and their legal requirements onhttp://www.environment-agency.gov.uk/
FLY-TIPPING: Temporary Police Sergeant Chris Tinney said: "We carried out this partnership operation as a direct response to the amount of fly-tipping incidents in Chobham recently. Our aim was to tackle those who both carry commercial waste illegally and/or who cannot account for where they dispose of their waste such as brick rubble and tree cuttings.
"Illegally disposing of waste not only incurs a cost to the tax payer but it also places road users at risk when rubbish is dumped directly onto a carriageway. I hope this operation sends a clear message to potential fly-tippers that the illegal movement and disposal of waste will not be tolerated and will be dealt with robustly. Further joint operations are planned for the near future."
HELLO: I'll be taking over the live blog this evening.
We start with a police and council operation to crack down waste carriers and potential fly-tippers.
The operation carried out on Thursday 1st May focused on the Chobham area which has recently suffered from a spate of fly-tipping.
More than 40 commercial vehicles were stopped. Several fixed penalty notices were issued by Surrey Heath Council enforcement officers including five £300 fines for waste carrying offences. Police also issued fixed penalty notices for offences ranging from defective vehicles to having no valid MOT.
It is a legal requirement for commercial waste carriers to register, hold a Waste Carriers Licence and for them to keep a record of the waste carried and its disposal.
Three formal notices requiring the production of a Waste Carrier Licence within seven days were issued and anyone who does not comply with the request could face prosecution.
Officers from Surrey Heath Neighbourhood team worked with Surrey Heath Borough Council.
HANDOVER: That's it from me for today folks. I'll hand you over to Dave Stubbings who will take you through the latest news.
TRAVEL: More trouble on the M25.
Clockwise lane closed on entry slip road due to broken down vehicle at junction 11 (Chertsey).
There is generally very slow traffic due to an earlier broken down vehicle between junction 11 and junction 12
There is congestion to junction 9 (Leatherhead). All lanes have been re-opened.
FLATS FIRE: Residents living in a block of flats where a pile of cardboard was set on fire have said they would not wish what happened on their worst enemy.
People living in Merton House in Chetwode Road, Tadworth, were forced onto their balconies to avoid the smoke from the smouldering pile of boxes at around 9.30pm on Saturday (April 26).
Read the full story here.

Malone University students will "mix it up" on Monday
October 25, 2013 | Release # 6761
College of Theology, Arts, and Sciences.
The Malone University Department of Social Work is promoting something new on Monday, October 28 during the "dinner hour" between 5 – 6:30 p.m. Students are being asked to get outside their comfort zones and "mix it up. "
Mix It Up Day was created by Teaching Tolerance to get students to sit with someone new in the cafeteria, meet new people, and mix up their experiences with diversity. Students will be asked as they enter the cafeteria if they would like to sit at a table with someone new. Those who choose to participate will be handed a seating arrangement and conversation starters – but are encouraged to talk about anything.
From the Teaching Tolerance website:
Just what is Mix It Up Day?
A national campaign launched by Teaching Tolerance a decade ago, Mix It Up Day encourages students to identify, question and cross social boundaries. In our surveys, students have identified the cafeteria as the place where divisions are most clearly drawn. So on one day we ask students to move out of their comfort zones and connect with someone new. It's a simple act with profound implications. Studies have shown that interactions across group lines can help reduce prejudice. When students interact with those who are different from them, biases and misconceptions can fall away.
Malone University, a Christian university for the arts, sciences, and professions in the liberal arts tradition, affiliated with the Evangelical Friends Church, awards both undergraduate and graduate degrees in more than 100 academic programs. Malone has been recognized by the prestigious Templeton Foundation as a leader in character development, as one of Northeast Ohio's Top Workplaces by the Cleveland Plain Dealer, and is ranked among the top colleges and universities in the Midwest under the category Regional Universities according to U.S.News & World Report's America's Best Colleges 2014,has been awarded the designation Military Friendly School by Victory Media, and is named to AffordableCollegesOnline (ACO)'s Best Lifetime Return on Investment list for the State of Ohio.

Preparations for round-the-world solar-powered flight
November 8, 2005 Humans have now spent more than a 100 years under the spell of powered flight, regularly achieving milestones previously thought impossible and developing faster, bigger, deadlier, and more efficient aircraft in which to take to the skies. The challenges show no sign of abating as the second century of aviation begins, not just in terms of sheer human endeavour, but in respect to critical questions of environmental sustainability and renewable energy. The team that accomplished the first ever non-stop round-the-world flight in a balloon back in 1999 is embarking on a new project that will take see it repeat the journey - but this time it's in a solar-powered aircraft. Bertrand Piccard along with Andre Borschberg (an engineer and pilot and the Swiss Federal Institute for Technology (EPFL) and Brian Jones (who co-piloted on the Breitling Orbiter 3 on its record round-the-world flight) are aiming to complete a full night in the air during the first 36 hour solar-powered round-the-world flight during 2009.
Design and construction of the first prototype has begun and the detailed design and assembly of the plane will continue through 2006 and 2007 with the first test flights and a full night flight planned for 2008 and solar flights of several days' duration anticipated for 2009. During 2009, it is planned that the solar plane will attempt several records, including the first solar crossing of a continent, the crossing of the Atlantic and a round-the-world flight with one stop in each continent.
The aim is "assemble the best brains available to develop the necessary technologies to design and build an aircraft capable of staying airborne without any external help, save from the sun". To this end scientific partner EPFL in Lausanne conducted preliminary research in several areas during 2003 including mechanics, thermodynamics, aerodynamics, electrical systems, composite materials, photovoltaic systems, energy transfer and storage and computer modeling to define the project's scope, which includes the goal of zero emissions and no use of any kind of embarked fuel whatsoever.
The team is currently assessing the space requirements of the pilots with a pre-mock-up – a plywood structure that will enable the pilots to assess the current design, and which will be followed by the real mock-up of the future SOLAR IMPULSE cockpit.
The pre-mock-up (pictured) is equipped with a mattressed floor and seat. The seat backrest has five different positions, and the pilot's legs can be supported in several ways. Currently the team is working on designing the floor compartments that will house the waste collector system, survival equipment and food and water for two and three day missions. The team is also awaiting mock-ups of the electronic units which the compartments will carry.
Stating the "Round the World" goal brings the human achievement aspect to the fore and is designed to engender enthusiasm from the public and draw wider attention to the underlying issues of ecological sustainability and renewable energy. Solar powered aircraft are not new, but few have succeeded in capturing or storing enough energy to remain airborne for long periods of time.
Perhaps the most successful project to date is an aircraft under development by NASA that uses solar panels in conjunction with hydrogen fuel cells that it hopes will be useful as an airborne communications platforma and as a means of exploring the Martian atmosphere.
The HELIOS prototype reached a height of more than 96,000 feet in a test 17-hour test flight. Follow the links below to learn more.EPFL also participated in the success of the Breitling Orbiter 3 balloon and also conducted thermodynamic research for the America 's Cup winning yacht Alinghi.
Incidentally, much has been said about the history of powered flight in recent times, but manned ballooning is of course much older. It began in 1783 when Aine Robert and his crew lifted off from the gardens of the Tuileries on a two-hour flight watched byan estimated crowd of 400, 000 Parisians - alot more that the five people who showed up to watch the Wright Brothers historic 1903 flight.

Hi jaesius,
The images generated look to be 150×150. You can change that easily by downloading and installing : http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/simple-image-sizes/
Look for the image size/name that has those dimensions and then increase it as needed. After, regenerate your images so that the new size is used for those images. As long as your image are larger than that, it will use the new larger size.
These images weren't showing like this at first it changed for some reason… Do you have an idea of why this happened?

A note of introduction: My name is Alex Raskin and this is the new-look NJ.com New York Knicks blog. Over the past four years I've covered the NBA and NFL for outlets such as CBSSports.com, HOOPSWORLD and the Wall Street Journal, and now I'm very excited to contribute to NJ.com We'll be aggregating daily news on the team, previewing games, giving reactions and discussing everything concerning the New York Knicks. This forum is about engaging Knicks fans, so please feel free to comment, ask questions or give opinions. You can always Tweet me @alexraskinNYC.
As previously mentioned on NJ.com's Knicks blog, Baron Davis strained his right hamstring during Friday's 115-100 win over the Pacers and subsequently did not make the trip to Indiana for Saturday's rematch.
Afterward, Davis described the injury as a "little pinch."
"It's nothing serious," Davis said, as quoted by ESPNNewYork's Ian Begley. "I should be all right in a couple of days.
"It's very frustrating," Davis continued. "We were in a good groove and I was in a good groove, finally."
Despite paying limited minutes off the bench, Davis has looked good, committing just 1.9 turnovers per game while still getting 5.3 apg and 4.8 ppg in just 16.4 minutes per night.
There had been some rumblings that Davis would leapfrog Jeremy Lin into the starting lineup after Mike D'Antoni was replaced with Mike Woodson. However, while Woodson acknowledged that Lin is still in a "learning stage," the second-year Harvard product is not in danger of losing his starting job.
"That's the way it's going to be the rest of the season pretty much unless somebody gets hurt," Woodson said about Lin remaining the starter. "I like that rotation. We can also move (Iman Shumpert) over to one sometimes. That's the kind of rotation I'm looking at right now."
Remember, Davis is still trying to get into game shape after missing the beginning of the year with back issues. He will receive treatment while the Knicks are in Indiana and he hopes to return on Tuesday when they face the Raptors at Madison Square Garden.
As Woodson mentioned, Shumpert will likely see time at point guard in place of Davis. Mike Bibby, who played three minutes on Friday, is also available.

Illustrated reports from our Waterways Conservation Officers throughout the state.
The following are only a few of the entries which appear regularly in Pennsylvania Angler & Boater magazine.
As a DWCO trainee in the lower Montgomery County, I learned the difference between our Title 58 Pennsylvania Code for Fish and Boat Commission Rules and Regulations and the real world of field work. I have discovered that some anglers who have physical contact with the waters of Skippack Creek are afflicted with amazing short-term neurological and cognitive disorders. Counting creel limits for trout for some has become a thesis for new combinatorial algorithms. Here is axiom #1 (good neighbor corollary): Eight legal-sized trout can be counted as the 16 that you caught with eight on your stringer and eight that you gave to your friend for his stringer. Axiom #2 (Robin Hood corollary): Catch any amount more than eight of legal-sized trout and give the balance to the poor anglers who have not caught any yet. Axiom #3 (Biblical loaves and fishes corollary): Counting to eight becomes harder to achieve when in the presence of a uniformed WCO or DWCO. Somehow that ninth trout, or maybe tenth of eleventh trout, surprisingly appears on the stringer or in the creel when asked to count your claimed "seven" trout. I know that I'm "wet" behind the ears, but I'm sure that my colleagues will show me how to catch on to the new math. There's got to be something in that water.DWCO Chris D'Ascenzo, Southern Montgomery County.
Improvised tackle
Since I started this job, one of the things that amazes me is the vast array of improvised fishing equipment that I find people using along our waterways here in the Southeast Region. One of the most common is the "Philly Fly Rod," simply a length of monofilament wrapped around a beer or soda can, with a weight and hook at the end. An angler proficient with one of these can cast it nearly as far as his counterparts who use conventional tackle. One evening while off duty, I was fishing for channel cats in the Schuylkill River with DWCOs Roger and Fran Lauderback, and I decided to see for myself how well the "Philly" would work. To Roger and Fran's great amusement (and disgust), I managed not only to outfish them, but also to catch the largest fish of the evening, a 23.5-inch channel catfish!WCO Robert W. Croll, Delaware County.
Unusual bass story
When on my way in to check licenses at a local lake, I encountered two fishermen walking out to the parking lot. I stopped to ask them for their fishing licenses, and as one of them turned to show me the license pinned to his hat, the tail of a bass swung around from behind him. I took the fish and the person's license and told him that I would meet him at his vehicle to settle. They left and I got a bag out of the trunk of the car and tried to put the fish into it. It was dry and would not go in, so I grabbed a bottle of spring water and pored it over the fish. As I did this, the gills started to work, so I jumped into my car and took the fish back to the lake. I tried to revive the fish, but it only floated on its side. Another fisherman was watching me do this and asked if he could try. I said that he could, and he went out on a rock and retrieved the fish, and started to move it gently back and forth to force water through its gills.
After several minutes, another bass swam by and turned to look at the fish. It then swam up to the injured fish and touched its nose to the back of the man's hand. It then swam a short distance away, and when the fisherman let go, the bass began to swim away. The other one accompanied it toward deeper water.WCO Raymond J. Borkowski, Northern Washington/Southern Beaver counties.
Water we doin' in a canoe?
Two weeks and two canoe patrols later, here's the score: Water, 2, WCOs, 0. There are times when it seems that if I didn't have bad luck, well, then I'd have no luck at all. Here's a thumbnail sketch; you decide.
French Creek, Crawford County: While checking canoeists, my Southcentral Crawford/Eastern Mercer counties counterpart innocently maneuvers our canoe in such a manner to soak my field glasses, flashlight, and me. Additionally, my quick exit caused not only my clothing to get wet, but also my sinking thigh-deep into the creek's bottom. Muddy WCOs get no respect. Trust me on this!
Tionesta Creek, Forest County: While orienting our new Forest County officer, the officer attempts to drown his guide (me), and apparently himself, by capsizing our canoe after hitting an "almost" submerged tree. Casualties were, again, my just dried and cleaned field glasses and a camera, pager, paperwork, law books, lunch, and other relevant items. All items were found and returned to service, and lunch was still edible. Guess not all my luck is bad. WCO Mark T. Kerr, Western Crawford County.

Fifty years have passed since Reclus published his classic description of cystic disease of the breast. Since that time much investigative work has been done, and a voluminous literature has developed. However, the practical and important relationship between this disease and carcinoma has never been so decisively established that any one view has been generally accepted. As a result, a wide range of opinion still prevails as to what constitutes its proper treatment. Thus the selection of the surgeon, rather than the nature of the lesion, often determines whether a breast is removed or preserved.I believe that sufficient evidence is available to justify a more uniform view of this relationship and to evolve a more standardized and conservative policy in the treatment of the disease.It is proposed to review the literature, to evaluate the information contained in it, to add, together with follow-up information, a series of

Post soundtrack: return to innocence by Enigma
What happened to innocence and finding yourself?
I remember a time when there was so much in this world I was protected from, so much I still had to learn. There were things I was shielded from or banned to do because my parents wanted to protect my innocence.
Something I didn't quite understand back then. Sure I was a normal teenager who grew up sneaking cigarettes behind school and getting drunk on weekends. But there was a certain safety net there as well.
The world has no filter anymore, there is nothing we are shielded from. There is nothing that is too soon. People are experiencing things I did at 18 by the time their 14. The world is trying to move by too fast. The 7 year itch has become the 3 year itch. Everything is just cut shorter and shorter the more options we have. It's so sad.
I'm quite sad to see that so many people give up the fight to search for who they really are, like women in this city. By the time they are 25 all of them are almost clones of each other. Same hair, make-up, plastic surgeon, clothing style.
You don't know who you are at 25, but how are you going to find out if all you do is follow the mold of everyone else?
I was trying to have a conversation with someone who was 22. She was really grown up, she could hold the conversation without a doubt. But at the same time I thought "you are too young to be living this lifestyle." Maybe because I didn't get to fully enjoy that time in my life, I was in a rush to grow up. It's overrated.
Take your time people. Don't be in such a rush to get somewhere and to be someone, build yourself. Character takes time to build, I'm not even done yet.
I'm learning the beauty of trying to find innocence again in the small things, taking things in life slow. Enjoying the moments without rushing. You can see everything so much better when you slow down.

Rath Lugh protester leaves tunnel
Published 16/03/2008
The young Kerry woman who had been staging an underground protest at Rath Lugh in the Tara/Skyrne valley left the tunnel last night.
23-year-old Lisa Feeney spent several days inside the 10 metre deep tunnel, protesting at the route of the M3 motorway.
She and others want the motorway to be moved away from the national monument at Rath Lugh.
Lisa's fellow protestors say her decision to leave the tunnel followed an agreement with the National Roads Authority
