Located in Würtemberg ; founded by Count Eberhard im Bart on 3 July, 1477, after Pope Sixtus IV had first undertaken by the Bull of 13 Nov., 1476 to endow the university from the property of the Church. The imperial confirmation followed on 20 Feb., 1484. The university had four faculties: theology, law, medicine, and philosophy, and altogether fourteen professorships. Among the distinguished professors at the beginning were the theologians Gabriel Biel, Johannes Heynlin von Stein (a Lapide), Conrad Summenhart, and the jurist Johannes Vergenhans (Nauclerus). A distinguished physician was Johannes Widmann. In the philosophical faculty should be mentioned the mathematicians Paul Scriptoris and Johannes Stöffler, and the Humanists Johannes Reuchlin, Heinrich Bebel, and Melanchthon. Duke Ulrich of Würtemberg was deposed in 1519 on account of his misgovernment of the country, but in 1534 was restored to power by the Lutheran Landgrave Philip of Hesse. In 1535 Ulrich introduced the Reformation into the country and university, notwithstanding the stubborn opposition manifested at the university, especially by its chancellor Ambrosius Widmann. The most prominent of the new professors were the theologians Johannes Brenz, Erhard Schnepf, Jakob Andreæ, Jakob Heerbrand, Andreas and Luke Osiander. Among the other professors were the jurists Johannes Sichard, Karl Molinæus (Du Moulin), and Christopher Besold, the physician Leonhard Fuchs, the philologists Joachim, Camerarius and Martin Crusius, the cartographer Philip Apian, and the mathematician and astronomer Michael Mästlin. To secure capable preachers Duke Ulrich established the Lutheran seminary, and Duke Christopher founded the collegium illustre for the training of state officials.
The university, like the country, recovered only slowly from the injuries inflicted by the Thirty Years' War. At first the old rigid orthodoxy still prevailed in the theological faculty; but in the eighteenth century a greater independence of thought gradually gained ground, especially through the efforts of the chancellor, Christopher Matthäus Pfaff, the founder of what is called the collegiate system. Pietism also was represented in the theological faculty. Towards the end of the eighteenth century Christian Gottlieb Storr exerted a profound influence as a Biblical theologian and the founder of the early Tübingen School in opposition to the "Enlightenment' and the theories of Kant. Among his pupils were, in particular, Friedrich Gottlieb Süsskind, Johann Friedrich Flatt, and Karl Christian Flatt.
Prominent in the faculty of law were Wolfgang Adam Lauterbach, Ferdinand Christopher Harpprecht, and Karl Christopher Hofacker, and in the faculty of medicine, Johann Georg Gmelin, Karl Friedrich Kielmeyer, and Johann Heinrich Ferdinand Autenrieth. During this era, marked by the spread of the Wolffian and Kantian doctrines, the faculty of philosophy had few distinguished members. The chancellor Lebret, however, ranked high as a historian, and Bohnenberger as a mathematician. Towards the close of the eighteenth century the university was in danger of having the faculties of law and medicine transferred to the school established at Stuttgart by Duke Charles Eugene, after whom the new school was named. This loss was averted, however, by the suppression of the new seat of learning in 1794.
Two causes led to a great development of the university in the nineteenth century. First, the Catholic university for Würtemberg, which at the beginning of the century had been established at Ellwangen, was transferred in 1817 to Tübingen as a Catholic theological faculty, and a Catholic house of study called Wilhelmsstift was founded to counterbalance the Lutheran seminary ; second, a faculty of political economy was organized in 1817 (called the faculty of political science since 1822), and a faculty of natural sciences in 1863. These changes led to the erection of new university buildings: the anatomical building (1832-35); the new aula, intended to replace the old one dating from 1547 and 1777, and the botanical and chemical institute (1842-45); the clinical hospital for surgical cases (1846); the physiological institute (1867); the institute for pathological anatomy (1873); ophthalmic hospital (1875); medical hospital (1878-79); the physico-chemical institute (1883-85); the institute for physics (1888); the new hospital for women (1888-91), in place of the old one built in 1803; the hospital for mental diseases (1892-94); the mineralogico-geological and zoological institute (1902); the institute for chemistry (1903-07); the new ophthalmological clinic (1907-09). A new building for the library, housed till now in the castle, is in course of construction; the library contains 4145 manuscripts and 513,313 volumes. The regular professors numbered 56 in the summer term of 1911; honorary and adjunct professors, Dozents , 71; matriculated students, 2118, and non-matriculated persons permitted to attend the lectures, 145, making a total of 2263. Since the reign of King Frederick I the university has become more and more a state institution; its income for 1911 was 439,499 marks ($104,382), while the grant from the State for the year was 1,366,847 marks ($324,626).
In the Protestant theological faculty the critical view of theological history held by Ferdinand Christian Baur led to the founding of the later Tübingen School, to which belong, besides the founder, Albert Schwegler, Karl Christian Planck, Albert Ritschl, Julius Köstlin, Karl Christian Johannes Holsten, Adolf Hilgenfeld, Karl Weizsäcker and Edward Zeller. Other distinguished theologians, who were somewhat more positive in their views, were Johann Tobias Beck, and Christian David Frederick Palmer. David Frederick Strauss, a follower of Hegel, wrote his "Life of Jesus" while a tutor at Tübingen. The distinguished teachers and scholars of the Catholic theological faculty are often called the Catholic Tübingen School. The characteristic of this school is positive and historical rather than speculative or philosophical. Above all should be mentioned the great Catholic theologian of the nineteenth century, Johann Adam Möhler; further: Johann Sebastian Drey, Johann Baptist Hirscher, Benedict Welte, Johann Evangelist Kuhn, Karl Joseph Hefele, Moritz Aberle, Felix Himpel, Franz Quirin Kober, Franz Xaver Linsenmann, Franz Xaver Funk, Paul Schanz, and Paul Vetter. Distinguished professors of law were: Karl Georg Wächter, Karl Friedrich Wilhelm Gerber, Alois Brins, Gustav Mandry, and Hugo Meyer. Among the noted members of the faculty of political science were: Robert Mohl, Albert Eberhard Friedrich Schäffle, Gustav Rümelin, Gustav Friedrich Schönberg, and Friedrich Julius Neumann. Among the noted members of the medical faculty were: Victor Bruns, Felix Niemeyer, Karl Liebermeister, and Johannes Säxinger. In natural science should he mentioned: Hugo Mohl, Theodore Eimer, and Lothar Meyer. Of the philosophical faculty should be mentioned Friedrich Theodor Vischer, writer on æsthetics; the philosopher Christopher Sigwart; the classical philologists Christian Wals and Wilhelm Sigismund Teuffel; the Orientalists Julius Mohl, Georg Heinrich Ewald, and Walter Rudolf Roth; the Germanists Ludwig Uhland and Heinrich Adalbert Keller; the historians Julius Weizsäcker and Hermann Alfred Gutschmid; and the geologist Friedrich August Quenstedt.
The Catholic Encyclopedia is the most comprehensive resource on Catholic teaching, history, and information ever gathered in all of human history. This easy-to-search online version was originally printed between 1907 and 1912 in fifteen hard copy volumes.
Designed to present its readers with the full body of Catholic teaching, the Encyclopedia contains not only precise statements of what the Church has defined, but also an impartial record of different views of acknowledged authority on all disputed questions, national, political or factional. In the determination of the truth the most recent and acknowledged scientific methods are employed, and the results of the latest research in theology, philosophy, history, apologetics, archaeology, and other sciences are given careful consideration.
No one who is interested in human history, past and present, can ignore the Catholic Church, either as an institution which has been the central figure in the civilized world for nearly two thousand years, decisively affecting its destinies, religious, literary, scientific, social and political, or as an existing power whose influence and activity extend to every part of the globe. In the past century the Church has grown both extensively and intensively among English-speaking peoples. Their living interests demand that they should have the means of informing themselves about this vast institution, which, whether they are Catholics or not, affects their fortunes and their destiny.

NEW ORLEANS — Not all Final Four games are created equal.
Despite the enormous popularity of college basketball's season closer, there are some years when one of the national semifinal games draws a lot more attention than the other.
This year is a pretty good example.
Saturday's first game, the intra-commonwealth matchup of Kentucky and Louisville, has drawn the bulk of the attention in the buildup to the fifth Final Four played in New Orleans. It's not just that the fans of the schools don't get along or agree on basic color schemes or that John Calipari of Kentucky and Rick Pitino of Louisville are two of the sport's more recognizable and thus more written about coaches.
It's all of that and more.
Sorry, Ohio State and Kansas, but that's the way it is. The great thing is the winners of both the marquee game and the other game meet for the championship.
» Complete NCAA Tournament coverage
Thankfully, not everybody is thinking the way the majority of fans are.
"I haven't noticed too much," Ohio State guard Aaron Craft said Friday when asked about the Kentucky-Louisville rivalry. "All four teams here are great. I think as a basketball team we've done a good job of focusing on our game and focusing on Kansas because, you know, they're a great basketball team. If we overlook them, we have all the outside distractions going on, we're going to go home. I think we've done a great job of just focusing in on what we need to focus on and not letting too many outside things get inside of our circle."
Quite a few teams have done just that and overcome being the other game.
No Final Four was more dominated by one semifinal over the other than in 1983.
Houston, known then as Phi Slamma Jamma, featured Hakeem Olajuwon and Clyde Drexler on a roster of players who spent most of their time above the rim while crowds oohed and aahed.
Louisville had an incredible group of high-flying athletes as well with the McCray brothers, Milt Wagner and Billy Thompson. The VCRs — young people should consult a history book — were set for that game.
Georgia and North Carolina State was just going to be two hours to talk about how great the other game was.
Houston beat Louisville 94-81 in the game everyone was waiting for. Turned out everybody was 48 hours off. North Carolina State, which beat Georgia 67-60, showed up Monday night and provided what is still one of televised sports' best moments.
Using strategy to take advantage of Houston's poor free throw shooting, the Wolfpack pulled off the upset when Lorenzo Charles dunked Dereck Whittenburg's airball. Coach Jim Valvano, who went on to touch a lot of hearts in his battle with cancer, ran around the court in Albuquerque looking for someone to hug.
Whittenburg recounted that Valvano was simple in his halftime speech with his team leading 33-25.
"All he said was, 'Twenty more minutes to make the dream come true,'" Whittenburg said.
Other dreams have come true with the winner of the other game finding a way to ruin a championship scenario.
In 1985, Georgetown and St. John's, two Big East foes who were the only teams to be ranked No. 1 that season and who featured future NBA stars and Hall of Famers Patrick Ewing and Chris Mullin, met in the semifinals. Georgetown won, but the coronation was ruined by a third team from that conference, Villanova.
The Wildcats, taking advantage of the last tournament played without a shot clock, hit 76.8 percent from the field — 9 of 10 in the second half — and stunned the world.
"Every one of you people said we had no shot, we shouldn't even have played," Villanova coach Rollie Massimino lectured the media.
There have been other Final Fours like 1991 when undefeated UNLV and Duke met in the semifinals. After the Blue Devils stunned the Runnin' Rebels, coach Mike Krzyzewski was running around the court stopping his players from celebrating and admonishing them that they "had another game to go."
In 1996, Calipari and Pitino had a situation similar to the one they are in this season. Calipari's Massachusetts team and Pitino's Kentucky squad had spent a combined 15 weeks on top of the poll. The Mississippi State-Syracuse game didn't draw much attention compared to the first Pitino-Calipari Final Four meeting.
"Well, the two best teams that year played in that semifinal. They shouldn't have," Calipari said Friday. "Now they've redone the tournament so those two teams only face each other in the final game, the 1 and 2 seed."
That still doesn't keep one semifinal game from drawing more attention than the other.

Michigan has gotten very good at providing tight shots that reveal very little information. And it's just one padless practice in March anyway. So, really, not much can be gleaned.
But that won't stop us from trying to get a few nuggets out of the clip. A few casual thoughts:
-- Blake Countess (ACL) is shown participating in the non-padded workout. Coach Brady Hoke said the cornerback, who had surgery in October, would return to the team for some drills this spring but will not be available for contact.
-- Linebacker Antonio Poole, who did not play last season due to an injury, is shown dressed at the workout.
-- Sophomore center Jack Miller is shown snapping to presumed starting quarterback Devin Gardner, while sophomore walk-on Graham Glasgow is working with No. 2 Russell Bellomy. Junior Joey Burzynski also has been mentioned as a candidate at this position.
-- Senior safety Marvin Robinson was shown in multiple clips working with the first-team defense, while redshirt freshman receiver Jehu Chesson was shown multiple times with the first-team offense. Michigan is looking for new starters at both positions, with Jordan Kovacs and Roy Roundtree gone.
-- Gardner was featured prominently in the video, hooking up with Chesson and sophomore tight end Devin Funchess for nice plays. Funchess skied over senior safety Thomas Gordon for a terrific catch. Gardner and Funchess never hooked up for more than one completion in a game last year, something that should change next year.
-- New outside linebackers coach Roy Manning was billed as a high-energy coach, and he appears to be just that. He's shown in one clip running with the defense in a drill.
Check out the full video here. Again, you're not going to get much information from it ... but it's March 17. It's just good to see football being played.

Background: Since the 1980s, Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli (STEC), especially E. coli O157:H7, has been an important cause of food borne disease in industrial countries. In France, as there was no routine screening for STEC in clinical laboratories, enhanced surveillance of hemolytic uremic syndrome (HUS) in children less than 15 years of age was established in 1996 to monitor trends in the incidence of STEC infections.
Methods: The surveillance system was based on a voluntary national network of pediatricians of 31 pediatric nephrology units in public hospitals.
Results: From 1996 to 2006, the mean annual incidence of HUS was 0.71 cases per 100,000 children less than 15 years of age and 1.87 cases per 100,000 children less than 5 years of age. STEC infections were confirmed in 66% of patients; STEC O157 was the most common serogroup identified in STEC-related HUS (83%). In this 11-year period, 96% of HUS cases were sporadic and only 2 outbreaks caused by STEC O157 and by a dual infection of STEC O26 and O80 were detected.
Conclusions: An evaluation of the surveillance of pediatric HUS showed that it is a simple and useful system for monitoring trends in STEC infections in France. It provides the information needed to measure the impact of new and changing vehicles of STEC transmission, and evaluate the effectiveness of prevention measures.

Parissa Strip Free Hot Wax (Coarse) 4 oz.
We're sorry, this product is no longer available.
Parissa Strip Free Hot Wax (Coarse) 4 oz. is for the face, brow & bikini.
Sep 28, 2012
Fabulous Product
This wax is great. I was a hairdresser for many, many years and this is the best wax I have ever used. I will never stray from this product because when you find something that works you don't change, and I have even been through laser hair removal only to have the hair grow back. That cost a whopping $750.00. This product is so easy to use and it really works great on areas of the face and lip. Thanks again for such a great product.

Excellent Product
I have been using this product for close to 7 years now and absolutely love it. I use it for waxing my upper lip and eyebrows. Once one gets a hang of it and knows how to use it, it is easy, fast, mess-free, and very convenient. I heat up the dish with the wax on my stove top, bring it to my bathroom, try the temperature of the wax by dabbing a bit of it with the provided wooden stick on my skin and start waxing - the whole process including heating up takes under 5 minutes. Also, I wax about every 6 weeks and the whole package lasts for over a year - which saves quite a bit of $$ not having to pay $15 plus for every visit to a salon to get waxed.

Hurts But Works!
Before I reaview this product let me tell you a little bit about myself. Im of French and Indian decent, Which means I have Dark hair and a lot of it. When I hit puberty I gained a dark mustach and the kids didn't hesitate to tease me relentlessly about it. My mother use to get it waxed for me but we couldn't aford it for very long. So my only option at the time was to shave it off. By highschool the dark hair started growing on my cheeks, and chin. Again we could not afford to take care of it so I shaved that to. When I graduated from highschool and got a job I tried everything on the store shelved. Home waxes, and chemical creams. Got the same results with both. Alot of soreness and redness but no hair was removed. I have tried all sorts of things online and tv ads as well. Nothing worked but they hurt a lot. I found parissa strip free wax for coarse hair and was hopeful but sceptic. I tried this last night and was so exstatic about the results. I only had to let it grow out for 2 days. The professional waxer said I had to wait 21 days before thay could wax. No not all the hair was removed all at once and yes it hurts, and yes there is irritation, but every single strip I ripped off there was a tone of hair on it that was no longer on my face. I don't care if I have acne, just as long as I don't feel like the bearded lady any more. Acne goes away, make up covers a lot. Being able to sit next to my husband with out any fear of him seeing any stubble was just amazing. This review is meant for women with severe dark and coarse hair on there face. Women like me who are at the end of there rope, and can not take the emotion torment that having stubble brings.

It Works!
I was a first time user of warm wax. I love that all you have to do is warm up the wax, spread it on the area you want waxed, and peel. You don't need any strips thus less hassle. It definitely works! The only complaint I have is that it should tell you that you need a wax warmer (Parissa has it's own wax warmer, too) so that you don't have to keep running back and forth to the stove to reheat the wax. It does get messy when the wax starts to cool off. That's why I gave it a four star. Definitely, will buy again!

First Power Suit - Page 2
I don't need the Power Suit until March. I can get by with flannel slacks and OCBD's for the first few weeks at the firm. It sure would be great to show up in a good suit my first day, though.
Boy, that's a good question. 33w slacks fit comfortably.
The widest point of my belly, just below my navel, is 34.75". So that actually gives me a couple of inches to play with.
Do you just get used to wearing pants all the way up there? It seems really awkward.
Are there seriously so few physically-fit men in the modern workforce that no OTR suits will fit? The models who wear them are fit; that's what kills me, here. I'm 175 lbs at 5'10" and about 15% bodyfat. It's not like I'm built like Mighty Mouse. By military standards I'm statistically average.
Haha, well spoken. :) I wonder if starting a company that sells OTR suits for athletic people would be a good idea. I mean, there are more and more men who watch out for their body, and not just in the military. Most of them wear denim of course, and make do with an ill-fitting suit for one occasion per year that calls for one, or go MTM or bespoke if they need a good suit. There's got to be call for this sort of thing.
Honestly, I'm also a friend of low-rise pants that sit on the hip. As I'm relatively short, pants that sit at the true waist only look good on me with a jacket, otherwise (at least in my eyes) they make me look like a midget on stilts.
But so many people, some really big names in style, are insisting on that is the correct way for suit pants to fit, that I'm just not experienced enough to argue with it. Truth be told, it DOES look good with a jacket. Just don't take the jacket off. :)
My chest is 43.75." I really don't think I'm that disproportionate. I mean, I'm not Duke Nukem or anything. The main thing is, viewed from the side, my chest is V-shaped. My lats are really deep from my serratus up to my traps.
Removed the shirtless pic. This one's a little less gauche and shows my taper better. Sorry about that.

I remember seeing a company that used to advertise in the backs of bodybuilding magazines. They only sold severely-tapered shirts. I don't remember the name so I have no idea where they are now.

I would suggest that you stick with the 2 suits from Alexandre of SR to start with - ensure that you get a plain grey and navy, so you can wear them often with different shirt / tie combinations. Instead, spend the remaining $1K + on some good shirts and ties. Get your shirts made at a local MTM outfit and focus on ensuring the collar is big and high enough. Wearing BB OCBDs with a suit ensures that its no longer a "power" suit,
The 2 plain suits will provide a blank canvas upon which you can layer on different and interesting combinations. Keep the shirts and ties simple as well - no crazy stripes or bright pink ties. Take a look at the tumblrs of some of the more experienced members to get a sense of appropriate shirt / tie pairings. Good luck.
Ha, thanks. ET's advice is good - take it a little slow and figure out what you like first. Also if you don't yet have any really nice dress shoes, then that's the place to spend your extra cash. You might want to look at VictorSF's thread for inspiration, as he has a similar build as you:

Just below your navel is a medium rise. If they were truly high rise, they would sit at your natural waist, which is usually higher
You'll get used to the medium rise, it looks good on almost anyone. Heck, with your body shape you would even look good in a true high rise, with or without a jacket.
I'm going to start with the two plain MTM Alexandre suits -- a navy 3-piece and either gray or slightly-darker gray 2-piece -- and get an extra pair of trousers with each; one pair of each with side tabs, braces buttons, and no loops. Because braces.
We shook hands on the job a couple of weeks ago, and I'm told the offer letter should be in the mail after the first of the year. As soon as I get it I'm going shopping and I'll post pics as I go along.
Thanks, all, and Merry Christmas.

Front desk did not know how to process a credit card with the new chip, they required the PIN number but threw a fit when I asked to come around the counter to type in the PIN. The employee wanted me to call out the PIN number out loud or write it down! Very unprofessional. Wifi did not work. I stay at value hotels frequently but avoid this location.
Bed was really hard, room was creepy and the AC was off when I arrived so the room was very uncomfortable for a couple hours until it cooled off in July Texas heat.
When we first walked in to the room we had trouble with the door it look like at one point had been kicked in and they did a quick fix instead of replacing the door. The front room was very spacious with a couch and chair the kitchen area, was small but well set up with a stove mini fridge and small stove which operates the bedroom area from the bedroom which was also spacious the king bed was hard. The curtain looked like they where on the last legs. We had some trouble with the WiFi was spotty and it didn't work half the time, the only really good wifi connections was in the office area for breakfast. Speaking of breakfast the only good thing they had was the muffin, and drinks the cold cereal was stale.
Great Staff !!
Cheap hotel, old, clean but horrible bed and very noisy. I do not recommend.
Is the description of this hotel not correct? Tell us

"you Press The Button, We Do The Rest"
October 1972 | Volume 23, Issue 6
Like Henry Ford, Eastman was eager to get his product into the maximum number of hands. He preferred the profits of a mass rather than an elite market and therefore insisted on production economies and technical improvements that cut costs so that the price steadily sank from the twenty-five dollars asked for the original Kodak. The Bull's Eye model of 1896 (one of manyvariants of the basic camera in differing finishes and cases) cost twelve dollars, and a more modest type, the Falcon, was only five. In 1900 Eastman reached the apparent ultimate in price reduction, however, and also made a shrewd bid for a future generation of Kodak users, with the Brownie. This small box camera cost a single dollar. It took a six-exposure roll of film, purchasable for fifteen cents. It was advertised as something that could be "Operated by Any School Boy or Girl," and Eastman Kodak encouraged the youngsters to form Brownie Camera Clubs (blank constitutions, prepared in advance—like Eastman's bread mixes—were sent out on request) and to compete for prizes for the best pictures made with Brownies.
It is hard to know if any photographic careers were begun with Brownies, but there is the testimony of the distinguished pioneer Edward Steichen that he began with another Eastman Kodak model. It was a secondhand detective camera sold to him when he was sixteen, in 1895, and loaded in the darkroom by the dealer. Beginners may be cheered to note that when the fifty-exposure film was returned, only one shot was found printable.
Halfway through 1904 George Eastman celebrated his fiftieth birthday. It was a triumphant half-century mark. He was a mighty entrepreneur and a wealthy man. In the next year he demonstrated his affluence by moving into a new residence that was in effect an upstate New York palace. Its three stories contained thirty-seven rooms, twelve bathrooms, and nine fireplaces; it was surrounded by gardens and hothouses, for Eastman loved flowers; and it had two organs, for he was likewise fond (though somewhat undiscriminatingly) of music. Its walls sported originals by Corot, Whistler, Rembrandt, and Titian, and its library had fine editions, mostly untouched, of Thackeray, Dickens, Hawthorne, Scott, Balzac, and Trollope. The installation of Eastman and his mother in their new estate was celebrated with a dinner party that spoke volumes about the Kodak King's style and taste. The guests were fed caviar, bouillon, halibut timbales with truffle sauce, breaded sweetbreads, tenderloin of beef with mushrooms, partridges with bread sauce, pumpkin pie, and nesselrode pudding, all washed down with vodka, Rhine wine, punch, and champagne. After this aristocratic banquet, a quartet sang Boys of the Old Brigade, America, In the Good Old Summer Time, Marching Through Georgia, It's Always Fair Weather, Annie Laurie , and Teasing . Then there were fireworks, topped off by what the handsomely printed and bound menu and program called "A Few Acts of Vaudeville."
Two years later Eastman's mother died, and he never took another woman into the house to be its mistress. Hundreds of guests occupied it, enjoyed the fresh flowers, and shared with their host his regular mealtime concerts by a private organist and his weekly evening musicales. Eastman also liked to invite the pretty young wives of his business associates and other friends to luncheons, at which he would cook for them, compliment them, josh them, shower them with small gifts—and scrupulously avoid any deep relationship with any of them. Though Rochester gossips were always ready with rumors of secret liaisons, Eastman lived in a house that always had about it something of the affectedness, the lack of human seasoning, of a wealthy and lonely bachelor's residence. He was a comforting and comfortable host, vet sometimes he seemed to be on display in his own home.
At the company's headquarters, his role changed. He remained the chief of a deliberately simplified organization, making the big decisions and constantly reviewing the figures that were forever being neatly columned for his eyes. But a huge array of managers, assistant managers, superintendents, assistant superintendents, foremen, and assistant foremen (375, all told, in 1908) kept operations running without his intervention in the day-to-day details that it had once been his challenge and pleasure to oversee. The research department plunged ever deeper into complex chemical problems beyond Eastman's theoretical grasp, though when results were achieved, they were presented to him to develop, to market, and to enfold in a kind of parental pride. He was far from a stranger to his own organization —but he was also no longer the man who, with Strong, Reichenbach, Walker, and others, had dirtied his own hands at drawing tables, fussed over emulsions, and experienced the elations and glooms, of those moments when a new idea is first tried.

Frank Cirillo, director of the Mercer County Board of Social Services, will be recognized at the national level this week for his role in helping to combat homelessness among children.
The U.S. Interagency Council on Homelessness has named Cirillo a Champion of Change in the fight against youth homelessness, and will honor him during a ceremony at The White House on Thursday alongside others leaders.
"It is a great honor," Cirillo said, though he attributed the achievement to the combined efforts of his staff, the Mercer Alliance to End Homelessness and other nonprofit organizations. "We are just surrounded by very exceptional agencies and exceptional people who really care about what they do."
The issue of homelessness among children is often overlooked, Cirillo said. "People often fail to realize that the biggest part of the homeless population are children."
Getting homeless families in homes quickly benefits children. "I think that really allows them to improve their education, their sense of place and community, and really helps them dramatically with self-respect."
The White House ceremony will include a discussion with the honorees, who will elaborate on their efforts to fight homelessness.
In addition, Mercer's Rapid Rehousing story will be featured on the White House website. The program helps homeless families find new housing and case management services as they receive additional support to enter the workforce.
A graduate of Rider University, Cirillo has more than 40 years experience working with the board and administering social service programs.
He currently serves as president of the County Welfare Directors Association of New Jersey, and is a board member for the Mercer County Alliance to End Homelessness and the NJ Child Support Council.

Ancient cloned redwoods planted in Port Orford
Tuesday, December 04, 2012 5:15 PM
Inappropriate photo? Alert us.
Port Orford, Oregon--December 4, 2012-- Two ancient redwoods--including this one-- cloned from some of the largest and oldest redwoods and giant sequoias in California were planted Tuesday on a steep hillside in remote southern Oregon. Archangel Ancient Tree Archive will plant 248 additional clones on the four acre site south of Port Orford as soon as weather permits. The planting is Archangel's first attempt to re-create an old-growth forest from its storehouse of rooted cuttings from "champion" trees, the tallest, oldest and largest samples of each species it can find.The weather Tuesday--fog, wind and rain--should benefit the trees.

Best Buy Co., the retailer resisting a takeover attempt by its founder, reported second-quarter profit that trailed analysts' estimates and suspended its earnings forecast as sales of computers and televisions dropped.
Net income fell 91 percent to $12 million, or 4 cents a share, from $128 million, or 34 cents, a year earlier, the Richfield, Minnesota-based company said today in a statement. Excluding restructuring charges and other items, profit was 20 cents a share. Analysts' average estimate was 31 cents.
Best Buy yesterday named Hubert Joly as its new chief executive officer to oversee a turnaround plan that entails shifting to smaller locations in a bid to fend off Amazon.com Inc. and Wal-Mart Stores Inc. The results, which included a 3.2 percent same-store sales decline as shoppers bought fewer televisions and notebook computers, may bolster founder Richard Schulze's case that the company needs urgent change.
"The new strategic plan that they're trying to execute does not seem to be gaining material traction," John Tomlinson, an analyst at ITG Investment Research in New York, said today by telephone. His firm doesn't rate shares. "The struggle between the former chairman and current management isn't something that is going to go away any time soon."
Best Buy sank 6.5 percent to $16.98 at 9:53 a.m. in New York and earlier dropped to $16.25, the lowest intraday price since January 2003. The shares tumbled 22 percent this year through yesterday.
Forecast Suspended
Best Buy said it won't forecast profit for the second half of the fiscal year because of the new CEO, lowered expectations for industrywide sales and uncertainty associated with several expected product introductions. The company, which also suspended share repurchases for the year, said it still expects to generate free cash flow of $1.25 billion to $1.5 billion. Best Buy defines free cash flow as cash provided by operating activities minus additions to property and equipment.
Second-quarter sales fell 2.8 percent to $10.5 billion. The average estimate of 19 analysts was $10.6 billion.
Gross margin, or the percentage of sales left after deducting the cost of goods sold, narrowed to 24.3 percent from 25.4 percent a year earlier after the retailer used more discounts to spur sales.
"This is really a bad signal about the business, implying much more promotion than in the past," Michael Pachter, an analyst at Wedbush Securities in Los Angeles, said today in an e-mail. He rates Best Buy neutral. "The factors leading to the decline don't look like they're going to decline any time soon."
Recruiting Executives
Schulze, 71, has been recruiting executives and seeking the support of private-equity firms after resigning in June. He left after the board found he failed to relay allegations that then- CEO Brian Dunn was having an inappropriate relationship with a female employee.
Last month, Schulze offered to take the retailer private for $24 to $26 a share and said he would contribute $1 billion in equity from his approximately 20 percent stake in the company. Credit Suisse Group AG, his financial adviser, said at the time it was highly confident it could obtain financing for the bid.
Schulze declined an offer from the board to give him access to confidential financial information, which would have required him to wait until January to take his bid directly to shareholders, Best Buy said Aug. 19. Schulze said in a statement that he will continue pushing his proposal and was disappointed by Best Buy's "abrupt public termination" of talks. Best Buy interim CEO Mike Mikan said today on a conference call that the due diligence offer to Schulze stands.
Schulze's 'Leverage'
Today's results give Schulze "leverage in his negotiations with the company's board of directors in his quest to potentially take Best Buy private," Anthony Chukumba, an analyst at BB&T Capital Markets in New York, wrote today in a note. He rates Best Buy hold.
Joly, CEO of hotel operator Carlson Cos., will take over in September, replacing Mikan, Best Buy said yesterday. The company said in March that it would close 50 big box stores to reduce costs and that it would add more smaller-format Best Buy Mobile locations to spur growth.
"Joly needs to quickly formulate a bold turnaround plan and sell it to stockholders," Erik Gordon, a University of Michigan business professor, said today in an e-mail. "If they don't buy his plan, they will sell their shares to Schulze, with or without board approval."

Sweeping rival Palmyra was a big deal for the Hershey girls' basketball team, which defeated the Cougars for the second time on Tuesday night 54-43.
But the Trojans are hoping that the victory brings a District 3-AAAA playoff berth along with it.
Hershey entered the game 20th in the AAAA power ratings. Twenty teams will qualify for the postseason.
The Trojans still have one more game on their schedule, at Milton Hershey on Thursday. However, with bad weather in the forecast for much of the week and the district deadline on Thursday, it is possible that game may not be played in time to count for playoff purposes.
However that turns out, the way Hershey defeated Palmyra is part of why the Trojans believe they earned a spot int he playoffs.
The Trojans never trailed on a court that the Cougars had not lost on in three seasons. They forced 11 turnovers in the first quarter using a zone defense that took Palmyra out of its rhythm from the beginning.
Then, when Palmyra did make some noise in the fourth quarter, the Trojans were able to answer.
On consecutive Cougar possessions late in the fourth quarter, Maria Tukis and Katie Dembrowski made 3-point shots. But both times, Hershey answered with a long pass down court from Gabby Blackburn to an open teammate for a layup. The first layup was scored by Bridget Kilgallen, the second by Emily Bruggemeier.
"I give all the credit to Gabby Blackburn for that," Hershey head coach Randy Gambelunghe said. "She finds people."
Those passes and scores meant the Trojans' lead was still a comfortable 52-37, instead of a tighter 48-37, with 2:30 left in the game.
"As a team, we know that as soon as they score, we have to get up the court," Blackburn said. "When I get the ball, the first thing I do is look up the court."
While Blackburn was the key figure in the game, scoring 12 points along with her assists, Hershey was not dependent solely on her."
"I don't care about Gabby Blackburn or how many points she had," Palmyra head coach Ron Berman said when asked about the Cougars' defensive effort. "But we gave up too many other baskets."
Kilgallen had 12, while Dahlia Chroscinski scored 10 and both Caroline Cotton and Taylor Grace had eight.
Chroscinski scored three of her five field goals on backdoor cuts. It was part of solid offensive execution that may carry the Trojans into postseason play.

ROCKFORD – Wolverine World Wide is one of two West Michigan firms recently named one of the "Best Companies for Leaders."
The list of 40 global companies is based on an independent study conducted by Chief Executive magazine and management consulting firm Chally Group Worldwide.
The Rockford footwear company ranked 27, just behind the Kalamazoo-based Stryker Corp. whose CEO Stephen MacMillan abruptly resigned this month.
Procter & Gamble, IBM and General Electric held the top three spots while the top Michigan ranked company was Midland-based Dow Chemical Corp. in the 11th spot.
"It has always been our philosophy that great leaders are only as good as the team that surrounds them," said Wolverine Chief Executive Blake Krueger. "Here at Wolverine World Wide, we have made significant strides in creating a workplace environment that is conducive to leadership development. We firmly believe that recruiting, developing and retaining the very best talent has been the bedrock of our success."
The ranking are measured by the percentage of senior management positions filled by internal candidates and the level of involvement in leadership development by the CEO.
Krueger is an example of that. Krueger was an attorney with Warner Norcross & Judd LLP when he joined Wolverine in 1996, He moved from executive vice president to overseeing the Heritage Brand before being named CEO in 2007.
He'll be speaking this afternoon at the 10th annual West Michigan conference of the International Council of Shopping Centers.

Doing laundry a good time at Gold Run
December 17, 2013
Five flat-screen televisions. A sleek computer bar with free Wi-Fi. An Italian fresh-ground coffee machine that dispenses lattes, cappuccino, espresso and hot chocolate. Walls covered with hand-painted, meticulously researched, historically accurate Nevada County scenes from the 1800s.
Could this be the region's newest hipster cafe? Guess again.
Since its recent face lift, the Gold Run Laundromat on East Main Street in Grass Valley has quickly become the go-to spot for those in need of commercial washers and dryers.
Owners and business partners Dave Gough and Steve Switzer said early on they had a vision of creating an environment that would take the chore out of doing laundry.
"Most laundromats have a sterile utilitarian feel to them, and you see people sitting there with nothing to do but watch their clothes go round and round," said Switzer. "We wanted to turn this into something special and different."
Not only are Switzer and Gough best friends, they worked together for 25 years as sergeants for the Redwood City Police Department. Now retired, the two moved their families to Nevada County and began looking for a joint business opportunity.
In 2006, they bought the Gold Run Laundromat, which Gough originally deemed "a real beater." They closed for two months and remodeled the entire facility. Recently, however, they added 700 square feet by acquiring the retail space next door and knocking down a wall. It was then that they decided it was time for serious upgrades.
In the past, Gough had owned and operated as many as four laundromats in the Bay Area and was well versed when it came to running a business of this kind. A lover of all things high-tech, Switzer streamlined the establishment with motion-sensor, energy-effici ent LED lighting, an ATM machine, Wi-Fi capability and large washers and dryers that now accept credit cards or ATM cards. The laundromat can even be locked by the owners from a remote location.
"We have new washers that are the largest in the county," said Switzer. "We've got two 80-pound machines, two 75-pound machines, four 60-pound machines and six 40-pound machines. We also have six 75-pound dryers."
The large machines are a huge draw for those who want to wash multiple quilts, comforters or sleeping bags all at once, he added, or for businesses with large quantities of linens. Businesses can obtain a custom, discounted "swipe card" that allows them to track what they've spent at the laundromat and receive a monthly invoice. With a phone call, they can add money to the card.
Gough and Switzer recently hired Stacy Shelton to oversee a wash-and-fold service, which is available Monday through Saturday. Shelton also offers special pick-up service for those who are homebound.
The most noticeable change since the remodel has been a large mural that envelopes the entire laundromat and depicts scenes from the 1800s in Nevada County. Local artists Jim Bowers and "Foxey" carefully researched each scene before committing them to the walls. Examples include a Pelton wheel, a Maidu hut, Bridgeport, a miners' camp, hunters, a stamp mill, a water wheel and the inside of a Chinese laundry.
"The artists met and exceeded every expectation — everything is historically accurate, with the exception of two hidden 'Waldos' for the kids to find," said Switzer.
Add new vinyl that makes the floor look like seasoned barn wood and faux brick accents on the wall, and you've got a laundromat like no other.
Today, from noon to 3 p.m., the Gold Run Laundromat will host a holiday open house with hot apple cider and chocolate chip cookies. "You don't have to do your wash, just drop by," Gough said, with a laugh.
"We wanted to create a warm, inviting place where women could bring their children and feel comfortable," added Switzer. "We tried to think outside the box and give it the 'wow factor.' I think we've accomplished that."

William Trevor is an Irish writer by birth, and I take it he considers himself an Irish writer still, although he left Ireland in 1954 and has settled in Devon. He was born in Mitchelstown, County Cork, on May 24, 1928 (but I have seen another birthday ascribed to him), to a family Protestant andmiddle-class. His father was a bank official with enough money to send his son to school at Sandford Park, Dublin, and later to St. Columba's College, Rathfarnham, a school "with a reputation for aloofness, and skill on the hockey field." At Trinity College, Dublin, he read history but not with particular zeal. He left with an undistinguished degree and eventually found a reliable job in an advertising agency in London. In Excursions in the Real World (1994) Trevor writes with equanimity of his early years:
I was born into a minority that all my life has seemed in danger of withering away. This was smalltime Protestant stock, far removed from the well-to-do Ascendancy of the recent past yet without much of a place in de Valera's new Catholic Ireland. The insult and repression that for centuries had been the response to Irish aspirations, the murders perpetrated by the Black and Tans, the heartbreak of the Civil War, were all to be expunged in de Valera's dream of a land "bright with cosy homesteads, whose fields and villages would be joyous with the sounds of industry, with the romping of sturdy children, the contests of athletic youths, the laughter of comely maidens; whose firesides would be forums for the wisdom of old age."
Trevor has never objected to de Valera's dream of Ireland: he approves of it, apparently, and regrets only that it could not be fulfilled. He seems to have had no objection to de Valera's determination to keep Ireland out of World War II. These sentiments may help to explain why his fiction exhibits none of the ressentiment of a diminished Anglo-Irish gentry or the lurid fantasy of Catholic power resorted to by other Protestant writers of similar background, such as Charles Maturin, Bram Stoker, and Sheridan LeFanu. The rise of Catholics to high place in Ireland does not seem to arouse in Trevor any special bitterness: he assumes that it was historically inevitable and therefore appropriate. He has seen the Protestant landed class in Ireland lapsing into a social existence mostly picturesque and decorative, but he has accepted this change with good grace and as patiently as other changes.
In the novel Fools of Fortune (1983) Trevor presents with appropriate dismay the burning of the fictitious Kilneagh House, described as a great house near Fermoy, County Cork, but he does not rail at the men who have burned it, a squad of Black and Tans led by Sergeant Rudkin. A few of his stories, including "The Hotel of the Idle Moon," "The Distant Past," and "Mr. McNamara," can be read as allegories of the rise of Catholic Ireland and the fall of…

Phoenix, Ariz. running back Kani Benoit received an offer from the Ducks after visiting Eugene this weekend and he immediately accepted. The 5-foot-10, 205-pound back out of Thunderbird High School in Phoenix is the third back to commit to the Ducks. Does that mean Dontre Wilson has chosen Texas or Ohio State? Not necessarily.
Wilson visited Texas over the weekend and tweeted that he's got a tough decision to make. Oregon's plan has always been to take three backs this year. Part of that has to be the belief that DeAnthony Thomas may go to the NFL when he's eligible next year and if so, even with Thomas Tyner and another back in this class, they'd be down to just three backs if they take two this year -- Byron Marshall being the other of course. The Ducks want at least four backs on scholarship to run this offense; they've talked about that for years.

Tomeka Brown of Muskegon remained in a West Michigan hospital Thursday, five days after the assault. Officials refused to disclose her condition.
A motel cleaning crew around 11:30 a.m. Saturday found Brown lying bloody and unconscious in the bathroom of a suite she had rented at the Victory Inn, 2967 Henry, according to Roosevelt Park Police Chief Bill Regan. The motel staff called 911. Regan said the assault appears to have started in the motel room, "then she was able to make it to the bathroom. That's where she pretty much collapsed."
Regan said Brown had access to several phones, including her cell phone, but never tried to call 911 herself.
Later that day, Regan said, he called in the state police to help with the investigation, including crime scene technicians.
Since that time, Chief Assistant Prosecutor Brett Gardner said, investigators have been looking at "a couple" of people who had access to Brown on Friday night or Saturday morning, including one -- a boyfriend of hers -- who is lodged at the Muskegon County Jail on other warrants.
"State police along with prosecutors have been drafting and executing search warrants over the past three days in an effort to determine the timeline and the contacts of the victim," Gardner said Thursday. "They've also been interviewing anyone who may have information regarding this very serious assault.
"The investigation is trying to narrow the potential persons who had access to the victim on that evening," Gardner said. "We're narrowing it down to a couple of people that had access to her."
Gardner said Brown suffered "significant head trauma."

When John McCain chose Sarah Palin as his vice presidential nominee, my first reaction was that he'd made the wrong choice. If McCain wanted to shake up the race with a youthful, history-making, reform-minded running mate who would both energize the GOP base and neutralize Barack Obama's advantage in the "change" department, I thought, Louisiana Gov. Bobby Jindal would have been a better option than his Alaskan counterpart.
Sure, Jindal probably wouldn't have given the McCain camp quite as much of a caffeine jolt. Chances are that he wouldn't have electrified the Republican National Convention, as Palin did; he definitely wouldn't have thrown out as much red meat. And he might not be attracting the same huge crowds on the stump.
But if Jindal wouldn't have matched the initial Palin high, he also wouldn't be in her uncomfortable shoes now.
When I first compared Palin and Jindal last month, I focused on Jindal's experience as a Congressman and high-level health care bureaucrat, his higher national profile, his reassuring performance during Hurricane Gustav, and his rhetorical discipline. Jindal would have been less risky, I wrote, because he's more of a known quantity.
In hindsight, I missed the big reason: Jindal would have been ready for a turn on the national stage.
It's hard to imagine Jindal flubbing his answers to Katie Couric's eminently fair questions on CBS last week. He wouldn't be hiding away from the press right now, with advisers helping him frantically cram for Thursday night's debate with Joe Biden.
And he wouldn't be the object of so much bitingly effective satire. Saturday Night Live's writers didn't need to make up Palin's claim that living near Russia gives her foreign policy credentials, or her promise to get back to Couric because she didn't know the answer to a question. Those things really happened.
Jindal, of course, has had a few rough patches with national interviewers over his support for teaching of intelligent design and other hard-right positions, but he has emerged intact. When he gets knocked off his talking points -- something that rarely happens in the first place -- he doesn't lose his way. That's because, unlike Palin, Jindal has given the major national and international issues of the day more than passing thought.
For all the ridicule over her comments about proximity to Russia, Palin's lack of foreign policy experience isn't the main story. Four of the last five commanders-in-chief, George W. Bush, Bill Clinton, Ronald Reagan and Jimmy Carter, were also governors before being elected president.
But voters have every right to expect a potential president to pass a basic comprehension test. One thing about Jindal -- he passes tests.
We'll see if she changes any minds during Thursday's debate. But as of now, more and more commentators, conservatives as well as liberals and middle-of-the-roaders, are giving her failing grades -- and saying that her selection raises questions not just about her, but about the man at the top of the ticket.
It's not hard to see what McCain was thinking when he chose Palin. He definitely thought he could attract support from women who backed Hillary Clinton over Obama in the primary. He probably also wanted someone who would harshly attack Obama, as Palin has -- and as Jindal wouldn't, because he, unlike McCain, actually seems to like the Democratic nominee.
In public, McCain says he's still excited about his choice.
His campaign's nervous handling of Palin, though, suggests that at least some of his advisers wish they had a student more like Jindal on their hands.

In fact, The Hollywood Reporter and other online news outlets are reporting today that Vieira will leave the show in June, nearly three months before the end of her contract. The Hollywood Reporter was citing "sources with direct knowledge of the situation."
What's more, adventure-loving reporter Ann Curry will get her wish to take over Vieira's anchor role.

Water level is down more than a foot at Guntersville despite the big rains, and there are small bass everywhere in the shallows feeding on shad fry--easy to catch on tiny topwaters like the F3 Rapala, a great training trip for young anglers who like lots of action.
Captain Jake Davis reports good ledge fishing on Guntersville, typically at depths of 12 to 20 feet. Davis says look for sharp bends in submerged creek channels or road beds and fish them with deep diving crankbaits like the SPRO Little John series, then swap to football head jigs once the bite slows on the faster lures. He said there are some fish up shallow already in pads and other cover, where they're hitting frogs; www.midsouthbassguide.com.
Captain Mike Carter says night fishing continues to produce large fish for his clients, with large, dark-colored spinnerbaits worked on the ledges the best bet at both Guntersville and Weiss. He said there's also some froggin' action in the back of the larger bays, best in mid-day when bass are seeking shade. Topwater action at dawn continues to be good; www.angleradventures.info.
Captain Mike Gerry says the ledge bite continues strong for his anglers--one of the best summers in memory, reports Gerry. He likes SPRO DD crankbaits and Tightline football jigs on the drops; www.fishlakeguntersvilleguideservice.com.
Mark Collins reports from Weiss that bass are hanging on shoreline grass, particularly in areas where runout from the rains creates current, and will take an assortment of crankbaits and spinnerbaits as well as plastic worms. He said the crappie fishing on the channel has slowed due to excess current, but that the panfish are active on flats at 8 to 12 feet, where drifting with spider-rigs and live minnows will find them; www.markcollinsguideservice.com.
Rick McFerrin continues to catch plenty of largemouths below dams at Nickajack and Normandy, most on the new Storm Arashi Shad in the #5 size as well as on finesse jigs. He said most fish are in eddies and seams in the current as well as along the wing walls; www.tennesseebassguides.com.

UPDATE: Fred Glespie acquitted
KALAMAZOO, MI – The jury in the Fred Glespie case is scheduled to receive its final instructions this morning before beginning its deliberations in Kalamazoo County Circuit Court.
The panel heard closing arguments Thursday from Assistant Prosecutor Alan Harbaugh and Glespie's attorney, Jeff Gagie, as well as testimony from Kalamazoo Public Safety Fire Marshal Jim Williams.
RELATED: Read a live blog of Thursday's testimony
Glespie, 19, is charged with three counts of involuntary manslaughter and four counts of second-degree child abuse in connection with a Feb. 18 fire at Interfaith Homes that killed the three toddlers – 1-year-old Ty'onna Henderson and 3-year-old twins Tevin and Te'Niyah Williams.
The children were left alone in the moments leading up to the fatal blaze.
Glespie is the former boyfriend of Jonetta Woods, mother of three children. Woods' oldest child, 5-year-old Drayanna O'Day, escaped the fire in February and is currently living with her aunt.
Gagie called two employees from Interfaith to the stand on Thursday who testified that they found Woods' Woods' children left alone during an inspection of Woods' apartment that was conducted prior to Feb. 18.
In his closing argument Thursday, Gagie contended that he has "built a fortress of reasonable doubt, brick by brick," and that testimony from Woods that she asked Glespie to watch her children prior to the fire isn't reliable and that Woods' testimony was contradicted in several ways by that of her sister and friend.
Harbaugh, however, argued that while there was conflicting testimony in the case, important statements about the events leading up to the fire were consistent. He also reminded jurors that the fire occurred eight months ago and some details about that day could be cloudy for witnesses.

The 2013 Candidates Tournament starts today In London, with the winner earning the right to challenge current world champion Vishy Anand for the title.
The tournament is an 8-player double round-robin event, with 22-year old world #1 Magnus Carlsen the firm favourite to win. The venue is The IET at 2 Savoy Place, on the banks on London's river Thames, and the total prize fund is €510,000 (approx 665,000 USD).
All rounds start at 14:00 GMT, and the time control is 2 hours for 40 moves, then an extra 1 hour for the next 20 moves, then 15 minutes with a 30 second increment to finish.
The official FIDE website coverage is at london2013.fide.com.
The opening ceremony was held last night at the venue, and some photos are below.

come on get it sorted !!
"Database Error: Unable to connect to the database:Could not connect to MySQL"... Nice move... I hope the players were more prepared than the site administrators...
is the website down?
Here are some nice pictures with Me, Carlsen and other super grandmasters from this event... Enjoy it!
Come on Kramnik...You are the best.
@poko6351 : 9 am EST ( 14 GMT ) . Chess TV covers it.
Is Chesstv covering the cantidates tournament with live commentary and when does it start. I believe I saw 10am EST USA.
Go Carlsen!!
Carlsen is determined to win the world title and he is well capable of it!
I'm rooting for Carlsen.
Carlsen and Aronian are the main contenders
Carlsen's picture just says "negative"...as if he was up all night, just jumped into his clothes without even combing his hair...he needs a PR person to help him play the part of a winner. Endorsements and advertising dollars go to the camera ready type, not necessarily the winner...but rather those that portray winning characters. Might also be because of a "bad picture", but everyone else looks polished.
Carlsen. Why oh why isn't he the thinking woman's sex symbol?
Stuff Daniel Radcliffe or the Old Spice guy on the horse. With the right media management, Magnus Carlsen would have fifty ladies running after him down the street.
The new chess broadcasting software looks great on the official site looks great.
We now have a new pope..
Is this a sign that there will be an new champion??
Good luck guys!! :))
why any sports channel does not cover these events? only cricket / soccor etc. why why why?
Radjabov, go kill everybody , win.win,win,win,win,win,win and repeat .
Radjabov is the best end of story
is there gonna be any commentary?
In the announcement with the pictures and brief stories for each candidate a couple of days ago here on chess.com, only Carlsen and Gelfand were cleanly shaved. Now there's only Gelfand left who apparently still likes to shave regularly.
Andrew Paulson truly is the head!

Agricultural leaders and a New Mexico state representative are encouraging farmers and ranchers across eastern New Mexico to participate in the national 2012 Agricultural Census being conducted by the USDA's National Agricultural Statistics Service.
On Tuesday, the USDA announced it had started mailing census forms to farmers and ranchers throughout the nation. The census, the announcement said, is "the only source of consistent and comprehensive agricultural data for every state and county in the nation."
Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack said that in addition to affecting policy decisions, agricultural census information also influences community growth and development. Many companies review census data when determining where to establish or expand their businesses, as well as where they can go for supplies of locally produced food and agricultural products.
Information from the census also helps to explain the many ways in which farming is important to urban or non-farming residents and decision-makers, Vilsack said.
The last agricultural census was conducted in 2007.
Patrick Kircher, Roosevelt County's Agricultural Extension agent, said accurate, thorough information in the census is important to farmers and ranchers.
"The more knowledge you have," he said, "the better decisions you make."
In addition, he said, as the population of farmers and ranchers declines, it becomes more important to "allow every voice to be heard. Knowing the state of agriculture is important."
Edmund Gomez, assistant department head and professor in the New Mexico State University Cooperative Extension Service's Extension Economics Department, said that as a farmer, "I intend to answer it myself."
He said all farmers and ranchers should respond.
"Tell them it's important," he said.
State Rep. Dennis Roch of Texico recognized that some farmers and ranchers may consider the census forms to be an intrusion, but said the information is kept confidential and provides useful in producing benefits for farmers and ranchers.
All farmers and ranchers should receive a Census form in the mail by early January, the USDA's announcement said. Completed forms are due by Feb. 4. Farmers can return their forms by mail or online by visiting a secure website, www.agcensus.usda.gov.
Federal law requires all agricultural producers to participate in the Census and requires NASS to keep all individual information confidential.
More information about the Census is available by visiting www.agcensus.usda.gov or by calling 1-888-4AG-STAT (1-888-424-7828).

How To Build Solar Panels
About Me
My name is Neville Pettersson and I have created the this site to help regular home owner's like me make their own
energy at home. For more info about me check out the about page here. You can also follow me on Facebook, Twitter and Google+ and Pinterest.
The price of electricity is climbing as oil prices nudge up above $100 a barrel once more. Turning to home energy production with wind and solar is a natural response: not only would you save on your electric bill, but you would also help the environment and reduce dependence on dwindling oil and natural gas.
But browsing the price of an installed rooftop solar power system can bring on its
own version of fear and loathing. A rooftop solar system capable of supplying all
or most of your home's energy needs can cost as much as a new car.
So how about installing the system yourself and saving on the labor costs? That will bring the price down, sure -
Just as the solar panels are the biggest part of the cost of a solar system, so the biggest part of the cost of solar panels is the price of photovoltaic cells. Solar cells are the individual silicon wafers with electrical tabs attached that go into making up a solar panel. Each cell converts sunshine into electricity, but it takes many solar cells to generate enough energy to be useful on a household scale (although many small applications like solar-
The key to making
You will need some tools, but probably nothing that you don't already have at home except for a soldering iron. It's recommended that you get some practice using this item if you don't already have it. You will be soldering connections between solar cells so that they are connected serially, negative-
So how much work are we talking? To produce a simple solar system containing several
solar panels and install it to produce electricity for your home will require two
or three days dedicated to the project -
Continued below....
How much can you save? It isn't hard to find materials that will let you build solar panels for less than $200 each, with each panel capable of generating about 18 watts of power.
The entire system, fully installed, for a typical house would cost no more than $3,000,
which is less than half of the cost of a kit capable of generating a similar amount
of power, and only a fraction of the cost of a fully-
An average electric bill can cost $200 a month or more (and rising), which means the system would pay for itself in less than a year and a half.
