In these studies, the robot had static facial features with movable eyes mounted upon a viagra blue hue neck mechanism (and therefore had degrees of freedom comparable to those proposed for our physically animate computer). The study involved naive subjects interacting with a physical robot, an on-screen animated character, and a person in a simple task. And each character made these requests in a different order, all requests were presented in a prerecorded female voice to minimize the effects of different voices.
Does physical movement, especially drawing nearer or pulling further from the user, impact the social presence of a character?. Each subject interacted with each of the characters, one at viagra blue hue a time, in a preassigned order of presentation. The character made requests of the subject to move simple physical objects (three colored blocks).
We carried out a series of human-robot interaction studies to explore how the medium through which an interaction takes place affects a person's perception of social presence of a character , to answer this question. At the conclusion of the interaction, subjects were asked to complete a questionnaire on their experiences based on the Lombard and Ditton scale for measuring social presence (Lombard et al., 1999).

Occasionally, the arthritis may precede viagra blue hue symptoms of IBD, especially in children with Crohn's disease. Patients with ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease are more likely to develop a peripheral arthritis if the colon is extensively involved. The episodes coincide with flares of bowel disease in 50% to 50% of viagra blue hue patients. Lack of gastrointestinal symptoms and even a negative stool guaiac test do not exclude the possibility of occult Crohn's disease in a patient who presents with a characteristic arthritis, consequently.
In patients with type1 arthritis, most arthritic attacks occur during the first few years following onset of the bowel disease but late occurrences also occur.

Research Interests
In recent history our society has relied on non-renewable sources (such as coal, oil, and uranium) to satisfy our energy needs; we could continue doing so for thousands of years before running out of fossil fuels (coal, especially, is abundant). However, it is likely that our consumption of fossil fuels is having a significant impact on our habitat, the earth, through anthropogenic global warming. Carbon dioxide, which is produced when burning fossil fuels, is a green-house gas. Carbon-neutral energy sources allow us to enjoy modern comforts while affecting our environment less. The sun supplies far more energy to the earth than we are currently consuming, yet we are still relying on fossil fuels to meet most of our energy needs. Solar-energy will likely not be our main source of energy until it is economically competitive with fossil fuels. Less expensive, and thus more competitive, solar-to-usable energy conversion devices can be realized by improving efficiency, and reducing the cost of the materials used to make photovoltaic (PV), and PEC (photoelectrochemical) devices. My research interests are all aimed at addressing these issues. The research provides great opportunities for working on solving present problems, while doing fundamental science. Researchers will have the opportunity to explore electronic, electrochemical and chemical properties of materials and surfaces.
Research Areas of Interest:
Surface Chemistry of III-V semiconductors. We are developing new surface chemistry of III-V semiconductors. Efficiency and stability of semiconductor devices is highly dependent on surface-properties. We are exploring the relationship between surface identity and chemical and electrical properties.
Electron Transfer in DSSCs. Dye Sensitized Solarcells (DSSCs), are low-cost, and easy to make. However, they are currently less efficient than many inorganic semiconductor PV devices. Electron-transfer processes ultimately determine the efficiency of DSSCs. We are investigating the effects of chemical identity on electron-transfer processes. Figures of merit are used as feed-back variables to help direct future research.
Visible Light Absorbing Photoanodes. To store solar-energy as Hydrogen through water-splitting one must not only reduce water (or H+) to H2 but also oxidize water (or OH-) to oxygen since the full water-splitting reaction can be written as: 2H2O –> 2H2 + O2. Thus, efficient solar driven hydrogen evolution also requires efficient solar-driven oxygen evolution. The environment at a photoanode in water will be highly oxidizing which is severely detrimental to many semiconductors and precludes the use of numerous, otherwise promising, materials. We are working on developing surface chemistry that will protect oxidatively unstable surfaces.

This is a repeat of the post I made a few minutes ago. I thought adding a subject would be helpful. I have a 2 node cluster for a shared GFS filesystem. One of the nodes fenced the other, and the node that got fenced is no longer able to communicate with the cluster. While booting the problem node, I receive the following error message: Setting up Logical Volume Management: Locking inactive: ignoring clustered volume group vg00 I have compared /etc/lvm/lvm.conf files on both nodes. They are identical. The disk (/dev/sda1) is listed when typing "fdisk -l" There are no iptables firewalls active (although /etc/sysconfig/iptables exists, iptables is chkconfig'd off). I have written a simple iptables logging rule (iptables -I INPUT -s <problem node> -j LOG) on the working node to verify that packets are reaching the working node, but no messages are being logged in /var/log/messages on the working node that acknowledge any cluster activity from the problem node. Both machines have the same RH packages installed and are mostly up to date, they are missing the same packages, none of which involve the kernel, RHCS or GFS. When I boot the problem node, it successfully starts ccsd, but it fails after a while on cman and fails after a while on fenced. I have given the clvmd process an hour, and it still will not start. vgchange -ay on the problem node returns: # vgchange -ay connect() failed on local socket: Connection refused Locking type 2 initialisation failed. I have the contents of /var/log/messages on the working node and the problem node at the time of the fence, if that would be helpful. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks, Barry
Hi Barry, Well, vgchange and other lvm functions won't work on the clustered volumeunless clvmd is running, and clvmd won't run properly until the node is talking happily through the cluster infrastructure. So as I see it, your problem is that cman is not starting properly. Unfortunately, you haven't told us much about
the system to determine why. There can be many reasons.For now, let me assume that the two were working properly in a cluster before it was fenced, and therefore I'll assume that the software and configurations are all okay. I think one reason this might happen is if you're using manual fencing
and haven't yet done your: fence_ack_manual -n <fenced_node> on the remaining node to acknowledge that the reboot actually happened. Also, you might want to test communications between the boxes to makesure they can communicate with each other in general. You might also get this kind of problem if you had updated the cluster software,
so that the cman on one node is incompatible with the cman on the other. Ordinarily, there are no problems or incompatibilities with upgrading, but if you upgraded cman from RHEL4U1 to RHEL4U4, for example, you might get this because the cman protocol changed slightly between RHEL4U1 and U2.Next time, it would also be helpful to post what version of the cluster software
you're running and possibly snippets from /var/log/messages showing why cman is not connecting. Regards, Bob Peterson Red Hat Cluster Suite

Parkview Hospital's plans to transfer operations to its north campus will take a big step forward next week.
Parkview will be submitting an amended development plan to the county plan commission on May 8th, which would clear the way for a huge expansion on the site.
900-thousand additional square feet are involved, which would more than double the existing space.
The plan is to build a nine-story full service hospital with beds and emergency room care.
Plus, a new heart institute will be constructed next to the interstate.
It's a 490-million dollar investment in the new campus.
Sue Ehinger/Parkview COO: " Where you can go to one campus, get out of your car and have all the services you need, really saves a lot of time and efficiency, especially if you're the patient wanting to know a diagnosis. It all can occur right there."
Assuming all approvals are obtained, construction would start this fall, with opening to the public in late 2011.
The move will almost certainly diminish the importance of Parkview's Randallia Drive campus.
But Parkview administrators insist there will still be an emergency room and hospital beds there.
They say it won't close down like the old Lutheran Hospital on Fairfield.

controller area networkAbbreviated CAN, a serial bus network of microcontrollers that connects devices, sensors and actuators in a system or sub-system for real-time control applications. There is no addressing scheme used in controller area networks, as in the sense of conventional addressing in networks (such as Ethernet). Rather, messages are broadcast to all the nodes in the network using an identifier unique to the network. Based on the identifier, the individual nodes decide whether or not to process the message and also determine the priority of the message in terms of competition for bus access. This method allows for uninterrupted transmission when a collision is detected, unlike Ethernets that will stop transmission upon collision detection.
Controller area networks were first developed for use in automobiles. Equipped with an array of sensors, the network is able to monitor the systems that the automobile depends on to run properly and safely. Beyond automobiles, controller area networks can be used as an embedded communication system for microcontrollers as well as an open communication system for intelligent devices.
The controller area network, first developed by Robert Bosch in 1986, is documented in ISO 11898 (for applications up to 1 Mbps) and ISO 11519 (for applications up to 125 Kbps).

Chimney-Cleaning Grenade
(13 January 2005,
Croatia) One fateful afternoon, 55-year-old Marko retreated to his
semi-detached workshop to make himself a tool for chimney cleaning. The
chimney was too high for a simple broom to work, but if he could attach a
brush to a chain and then weigh it down with something, that would do the
trick. But what could he use as a weight?
He happened to have the perfect object. It was heavy, yet compact. And best of all, it was made of metal, so he could weld it to the chain. He must have somehow overlooked the fact that it was also a hand grenade and was filled with explosive material.
Marko turned on his welding apparatus and began to create an arc between the chain and the grenade. As the metal heated up, the grenade exploded. The force of the explosion killed poor Marko instantly, blasting shrapnel through the walls of the shed and shattering the windshield of a Mercedes parked outside. Marko's chimney was untouched, however.

Charles E. Wood, Ph.D.
Professor and Chair
(352) 294-5064
Office: MSB M556
PubMed Listing
The research performed in the laboratory of Dr. Charles Wood is focused on the mechanisms controlling the responses to stress in the fetus in utero and on the mechanisms controlling the timing of birth. These two areas of research are related because both involve the neuroendocrinology of the fetal hypothalamus-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) endocrine axis, as well as other hormonal systems. This laboratory has published research results which have played a leading role in elucidating the function of the fetal arterial baroreceptors and chemoreceptors in the control of fetal cardiovascular and endocrine function. Other research performed in this laboratory has identified the cardiovascular neural receptors which are involved in the integrated cardiovascular and endocrine response to alterations in blood gases and blood pressure in the fetus. Other, more purely endocrine experiments performed in this laboratory, have demonstrated important changes in the sensitivity of cortisol negative feedback regulation of fetal adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) secretion which allow parturition in term fetuses. The discovery that the sensitivity of the fetal hypothalamo-pituitary unit to the negative feedback effects of cortisol decreases just prior to the term has been widely recognized as the discovery of an important link in the chain of events which initiates the process of labor and delivery. A recent publication from this laboratory has, however, also demonstrated that unprocessed or partially processed forms of ACTH are synthesized and released by peripheral fetal tissues, most notably the fetal lung, leading to the hypothesis that fetal visceral maturation might influence the timing of birth via the release of endocrine signals which modify the basic endocrine mechanism of parturition.
Present work in this laboratory focuses on three projects: 1) the interaction of prostanoids with the cardiovascular and endocrine controlling elements of the brain and the role of the locally-generated prostanoids in brain in the control of fetal stress responses (hypoxia and hypotension); 2) the influence of estrogen on the fetal brain regions which are important for cardiovascular and endocrine responsiveness to stress; and 3) the biological activity of sulfoconjugated estrogens in fetal plasma. This work is predicated on the observation that the fetal HPA axis is involved both in coordinating fetal stress responses (and thus is involved in the fetal survival of stress) and in coordinating the initiation of parturition. Identifying the basic neural mechanisms controlling fetal HPA function will yield a better understanding of both processes, as well as providing new strategies for therapeutic interventions. On this basic level, information gained in the ovine model will likely be directly applicable to the human being. We have found that prostaglandins generated within the fetal brain exert a profound influence on fetal HPA activity. The fetal response to hypotension, for example, is partially blocked using an inhibitor of prostaglandin biosynthesis. Hypotension stimulates the biosynthesis of the inducible form of the enzyme critically important for prostaglandin biosynthesis, cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2), within the pathways in the fetal brain which impinge on the paraventricular nucleus, which sits at the head of the HPA axis. However, we have also reported that the expression of both COX-1 and COX-2 are increased in these regions as a function of development, supporting the notion that the increase in HPA axis activity which initiates parturition is itself dependent upon prostaglandin production. Recently, we have explored this ontogenetic regulation by demonstrating that fetal estrogen, which is released by the placenta prior to term, augments COX-2 expression in fetal brainstem and hypothalamus. Finally, we have initiated studies which demonstrate that estradiol-3-sulfate, the most abundant estrogen in fetal plasma, yet a steroid which has long been thought to be inactive, is converted in the fetal brain to its active form, 17β-estradiol, where it increases HPA axis activity. All of these studies, which are funded on multiple extramural grants, interrelate to each other and will provide a more mechanistic understanding of fetal stress and parturition than we currently have. The ultimate goal is to identify interventional strategies which can manipulate the timing of birth while avoiding the pitfalls encountered with current treatments.

Welcome to #cookieweek my little cookie monsters! Susan of The Girl In The Little Red Kitchen and Kim of Cravings of a Lunatic have joined together this week with myself and 23 other bloggers to present to you a week of cookie treats! We have every type of cookie you can think of listed this week, including something for our furry friends! Now is the time to bookmark these recipes for the upcoming holidays and cookie swaps or simply visit our Pinterest board!
Make sure you enter the giveaway below, complete with some fabulous prizes from KitchenAid, King Arthur Flour, OXO,Silpat and Zulka Pure Cane Sugar!
The beginning of November often feels to me like it's the start of a marathon… Like, Buckle up, Buttercup! The next couple of months are going to be a little insane. …And then, as soon as everything calms down around mid-January or so, I'll have a baby. Hey, sounds like a plan!
Let's get back to the discussion on from a few weeks ago about Ugly Food. Stews, remember? Ugly yet delicious. Curries are pretty dang rough looking as well, for all their tastiness. And then we have these ugly little Chewy PB and Oatmeal Cookies.
Don't be a hater! You cant let the ugliness of these cookies deter you in any way. They are nothing short of my own vision of a chewy cookie wonder; nutty and not too sweet, with the oatmeal flakes competing for perfection along with a crisp-at-the-edges outside and a batter-y inside. Since I'm in Michigan for a few days for work and hanging at my parents, I baked the (third, final) recipe of these bad boys in my parent's kitchen. My mother and I decided that since these cookies have oatmeal (soluble fiber!), peanut butter (protein!) and, uh… eggs! they were perfect for breakfast.
We're so smart. That's why we sat at the kitchen counter and ate four each at like, 10 in the morning on Saturday. Breakfast of Champs, that's what we said to ourselves.
Ready to get started with me and Cookie Week? Check out the details for the awesome giveaway below the recipe, and make sure to swing by all the other blogger's cookie recipes when you can.
Personally, I'm looking forward to more reasons to scarf cookies for breakfast. Yay, holiday baking!
Extra-Chewy Peanut Butter and Oatmeal Cookies
1/2 stick of butter (1/4 cup), melted
2 eggs
1 cup old fashioned minute oats
1 cup creamy peanut butter
1 cup dark brown sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup white flour

New projects signal possible growth for North Hutchinson Island
NORTH HUTCHINSON ISLAND — A luxury condo-hotel, a restaurant and gated subdivision are on the horizon for North Hutchinson Island.
After being mostly ignored by developers during the early 2000s building boom years, this barrier island area south of Vero Beach and north of Fort Pierce along State Road A1A has garnered interest from developers.
Projects on tap include Tarpon Flats, a subdivision of 38 homes on the west side of S.R. A1A, a proposed 400-bed condo-hotel at the former Radisson Hotel site on the east side of S.R. A1A near Shorewinds Drive, and a new restaurant at the old PV Martin's site on the east side of S.R. A1A, south of Avalon State Park.
"A year or two or four years ago no one was interested in land here," said real estate agent Ken Fraser of Coldwell Banker Ed Schlitt Realtors, who is selling lots in Tarpon Flats. "But now land is selling faster than I've seen in a long time."
St. Lucie County officials and island residents see the attention as an opportunity to get projects they want while protecting the island from overdevelopment.
"People would like to see something that is more meshed with the area opposed to something that is beginning to take over the area," said County Commissioner Kim Johnson, whose district includes the island.
Builders are attracted to the area because waterfront property is scarce in unincorporated southeastern Indian River County. Both Indian River and St. Lucie counties share the barrier island with the area south of Round Island Park called North Hutchinson Island and the northern half called Orchid Island.
More than 30 waterfront properties in Vero Beach sold or have been under contract since March, according to real estate sales data.
"Developers are seeing they can move a few miles to the south and still build a good quality project," said real estate broker Bob Lowe, who closed the deal to bring in the condo-hotel.
The property's owner, Phil Ruffin, who owns Treasure Island Casino on the Las Vegas Strip, never considered Vero Beach to build his project because he was buying 11.78 acres for $6 million, about $11.9 million less than what the property sold for in 2005, Lowe said.
"Mr. Ruffin was getting a steal," Lowe said.
Another attraction to developers is the beachfront on the island is wider than Vero Beach and Indian River County thanks to the Fort Pierce Inlet. The inlet's jetties stick out in the ocean, preventing sand from flowing south so it piles up on beaches to the north.
"Developers are seeing they can move a few miles to the south and still build a good quality project." - Real estate broker Bob Lowe
That is what attracted island resident Joseph Caragol to redevelop the former PV Martin's restaurant, on S.R. A1A, south of Avalon State Park. Caragol's proposed unnamed restaurant would have 550 feet of beachfront to attract patrons.
"You just can't get that anywhere else on the Treasure Coast," he said.
The project creating the most buzz on North Hutchinson Island is a proposed 400-bed condo-hotel at the former Radisson Hotel site.
Mobile and tablet users: View an interactive map of the area.
The proposed hotel will be three, 12-story buildings housing two restaurants, a spa, meeting space for large groups and a wedding venue to accommodate up to 300 people in addition to some rooms available for private ownership.
The former Radisson acted as a community gathering place, where islanders could meet for Sunday brunch or grab a cocktail during the week, said Ron Knaggs, acting spokesman for the North Beach Association, a civic group representing the interests of 1,500 property owners.
The island has one commercial strip on the north side of Shorewinds Drive at S.R. A1A, across the street from the proposed condo-hotel. It houses Sharky's, the island's only restaurant, and a Cumberland Farms gas station, where residents can pick up a gallon of milk or a loaf of bread because there isn't a market on the island.
"It would be nice to have options and be able to patronize businesses in your neighborhood," Knaggs said.
Another noteworthy development is the 38-single family home subdivision Tarpon Flats, on the west side of S.R. A1A, already under construction. The subdivision is bordered by single-family homes to the north, a bed-and-breakfast to the south and conservation lands to the west and Ocean Pearl condominiums to the east.
"It doesn't look like it would be a burden to the island," Knaggs said.
While development interest in island property is high, county officials and residents said the barrier island area will remain residential with limited commercial because of its population and the county's development code.
The island's population of seasonal residents makes it difficult for some businesses open year round to succeed.
"It's tough in the summer for a commercial operation to last when 1,500 people go north for the summer," Knaggs said.
Another safeguard against increasing commercial areas is the county's building code, which restricts building height to 35 feet, except for areas mostly on the east side of S.R. A1A where buildings can go up to 125 feet.
"It's tough in the summer for a commercial operation to last when 1,500 people go north for the summer." - Ron Knaggs, North Beach Association
"Pretty much all of the land where 125-feet buildings are allowed have condos on them," Planning Manager Leslie Olson said.
Fraser said commercial buildings such as condos or hotels need taller buildings to sell space needed to make their projects profitable.
Also, any changes to the building code would need approval from the county's Planning and Zoning Commission and the County Commission. Johnson said that is something he thinks the current commission would not change because they want to see the land's natural beauty.
"You want people to see the value of your island," he said.
Also, about one-third of the island is park, beaches or preserves, which can't be used for development, Olson said.
"There is only so much land available," said Knaggs, a 14-year island resident. "Once it is gone it is gone."

packet collisionIn a network, when two or more stations attempt to transmit a packet across the network at the same time, a packet collision occurs. This is not uncommon in a shared medium such as an Ethernet that has many computers in the same network segment. When a packet collision occurs, the packets are either discarded or sent back to their originating stations and then retransmitted in a timed sequence to avoid further collision. Packet collisions can result in the loss of packet integrity or can impede the performance of a network. Also see CSMA/CD.

We're about a third of the way through the 2011-12 season and the Leafs managed to get 33 points. Again its early yet, but the club is on pace for about 96 points which should put them in a position they haven't been in since the lockout. That position of course is the playoffs.
With some success in the standings this year, most of that success can be attributed to one line for the Leafs: their top line. When they go off, so go the Leafs. When they're kept in check, the entire Leafs team is held in check.
Case in point, the Leafs' struggles this year with the Boston Bruins. The Leafs this season have been outscored 23-5 this season against the Bruins. The Bruins shut down the line of Phil Kessel, Tyler Bozak and Joffrey Lupul, and all three of them are a combined -24 against the Bruins and Zdeno Chara.
However, that line has generally been very explosive and is of the top five lines in the entire league.
For the Leafs to survive all these injuries, the Leafs needed depth this year, and so far, they've received some pretty good performances out of most players on their roster. We will now begin to break down each player with an early progress report.

The Maverick Boys & Girls Club will be closed Monday through Friday while staff members attend the Boys & Girls Clubs of America Program Institute at San Antonio.
Interim Executive Director Steve Burton said the Maverick will reopen on Aug. 23, operating on its fall-hours schedule - 3 to 8 p.m. Monday through Thursday and 3 to 6 p.m. on Friday.
While in San Antonio, staffers will learn about new programs, conducting program evaluations and proper discipline techniques, Burton said.
"They usually come back real fired up," he said.
Money for the trip came from the Maverick's budget, but Burton said the club is seeking help to offset the cost.

Biola University and half-Japanese singer Judith Hill, who performed at Michael Jackson's memorial services, will team up Thursday for a benefit concert for Japan earthquake victims.
Hill, an alumna of the southern California Christian school, had already planned on performing at the free concert to celebrate Women's History month. But she decided to refocus the concert to raise funds for Japan upon hearing news that the country her mother was born in was devastated by a 9.0-magnitude earthquake, tsunami, and nuclear crisis. Hill's father is African-American.
The R&B singer shared with The Christian Post on Tuesday, "A lot of people reached out to me and showed their concern for my family. I'm a big part of the Japanese community and it's really hard for me because emotionally it's really close to home so this is different from any other charity benefit disaster situations that have happened. I'm very much involved in doing anything I can to help the community." more >>
Japan's Emperor Akihito on Wednesday expressed deep concern over the nation's escalating nuclear crisis and said he was praying for the safety of people.
It was the first time in the history of Japan that the emperor addressed his nation on television during a crisis, according to the country's Imperial Household Agency. Akihito, 77, told the public that he was "deeply worried" about the nuclear crisis, which escalated to the point that plant workers had to be temporarily evacuated on Wednesday.
"The number of people killed is increasing day by day and we do not know how many people have fallen victim," Akihito said. more >>
Japan tsunami survivors are living one day to the next in fear after facing three nuclear power plant explosions, scarcity of food, drinking water, and shelter despite freezing temperatures.
Overall, survivors of Japan's earthquake and tsunami seem calm, but "the smell of fear hangs heavy in the air," according to the Operation Blessing disaster relief team on the ground. Operation Blessing says it is the first U.S. non-governmental organization to arrive in Japan and partner with CRASH (Christian Relief Assistance Support & Hope), a consortium of churches of mostly American missionaries living in Japan.
Beginning Tuesday, relief workers with CRASH will distribute clean drinking water, one of the most critical needs right now. more >>
Megachurch pastors Rick Warren, Ed Young, John Piper and many more took to Twitter to send out prayers and reflection on life this weekend after a 8.9-magnitude earthquake and tsunami devastated Japan and left likely more than 10,000 people dead.
On Saturday, Warren of Saddleback Church in Southern California tweeted, "Pray for earthquake victims in Japan. I love the Japanese people having lived in Nagasaki as missionary."
He followed up with another tweet, "YOU can give to help earthquake victims in japan. 2,100 of our members serve on PEACE Relief Teams." more >>
Japan's earthquake and tsunami is likely to have killed more than 10,000 people in one state alone, according to the police chief of Miyagi prefecture (state) on Sunday.
Miyagi is one of the hardest-hit prefectures by the 8.9-magnitude earthquake that triggered a massive tsunami.
"This is Japan's most severe crisis since the war ended 65 years ago," said Prime Minister Naoto Kan to reporters. more >>
Prominent evangelical pastor John Piper described the scenes of the tsunami in Japan as "apocalyptic."
"The power of moving water is greater than most of us can imagine. Nothing stands before it," he said in a blog post Saturday.
Videos and images of the devastation caused by the earthquake that struck off the east coast of Japan and of the tsunami that followed on Friday have left the world in shock. more >>

Tefnut, meaning moisture like rain, dew and clouds, was according to myth created by the primeval god Atum of the Ennead in Heliopolis together with her brother Shu, air. With them duality started and the sexual cycle was begun. When Atum later was assimilated by Re, they were considered children of Re, the sungod. In the beginning Tefnut was regarded as the lunar eye, but in myth she developed into the solar eye and later the uraeus. She then aquired the name "lady of flame" and "the uraeus on the heads of all the gods".
In Buto, she and Shu were worshipped as the flamingo-like "children of the Lower Egyptian king", a mythical image for the sun and the moon. In Leontopolis they were identified with the lion worship there. She can be depicted both as a lioness and as a woman with a lion´s head like Sekhmet whose ears are rounded while Tefnut´s are pointed.
Main center of worship:
Mainly connected to the Ennead at IunuHeliopolis/Cairo, 13th N, Lower Egypt.
Nay-ta-hut/Leontopolis/Tell el-Muqdam,
11th Nome, Lower Egypt
Festivals: (exact dates not historically verified)

29th October - 13th Koiak - Day of Going Forth of Het-Hert

Former Virginia All-American Chris Long has made a $300,000 contribution to the Virginia Athletics Foundation for the new George Welsh Indoor Practice Facility, the school announced Tuesday.
The facility is currently under construction, and the projected cost of the 78,000-square foot facility is $14.5 million, including financing costs to account for pledge payments scheduled to be made over the next five years. The facility is scheduled to be finished in the spring of 2013 and will provide practice and training space for the football program and all other field sports at the school.
"I am so proud to be a part of a brotherhood like the Virginia football program," Long said in a statement. "I am completely committed to helping Coach (Mike) London build this program and I know it's going to take time and hard work to do it the right way. Some of my greatest memories were experienced at UVa working with my teammates to set a standard of excellence on the field that my University could be proud of. Virginia football players of the future deserve this same opportunity and the construction of this facility goes a long way towards ensuring that reality."
The second overall pick of the 2008 NFL draft, Long has started 54 of 66 games during his career with the St. Louis Rams, notching 175 career tackles and 31 sacks. Coach London was Long's position coach at Virginia for the 2004, 2006 and 2007 seasons.

Manu Ginobili added 14 points and 10 assists, Nando De Colo had 11 points and Tiago Splitter had 10 for San Antonio (51-16), which is 1 1/2 games ahead of Oklahoma City in the Western Conference. Wayne Ellington had 21 points and fellow reserve Marreese Speights added 19 for Cleveland (22-44). Shaun Livingston had 16 points, and Alonzo Gee and Dion Waiters added 15 apiece. Neither offense was slowed by the loss of its starting All-Star point guards.

OCZ Technology releases the Z-Drive
Subject: Storage | April 23, 2009 - 10:41 PM | Allyn Malventano
You might have seen glimpses of the OCZ Z-Drive around the internet. As of today, it's official. OCZ has taken 4 Vertex SSD's and ganged them up with a PCI-Express RAID controller to form a behemoth of an SSD. We will be putting one of these beasts through its paces just as soon as it arrives. Sequential speeds should reach 500 MB/sec, and available capacities will be 250GB, 500GB, and 1TB (!). Some quick searching revealed pricing at ~$1200, ~$2000, and ~$3000, repsectively.

The Western Digital Black 1TB HDD can be yours for a smidgen over
$100, or about 10 cents a gigabyte if you would prefer to think of it that way. This is a Black drive, which puts performance above long lifetime or low power consumption and with an average transfer rate of 86MB/sec in OCIA's testing, it certainly seems to qualify as a high end platter based HDD.

Western Digital releases enterprise class 2TB RE4-GP series drive

Western Digital has released their new RE4 series of the Green Power line of hard drives. The new release advances the RE series to include 2TB capacity, 64 MB cache, and dual processors, and also feature advanced RAID specific features such as TLER (Time Limited Error Recovery) and RAFF (Rotary Acceleration Feed Forward).

Back in February, Allyn was writing his first review for PC Perspective, a review of the new Intel X-25 M SSDs. As he tested their various speeds, he began noticing some odd behaviour from the shiny new SSDs. At the start of the testing the drives were incredibly fast, but over time the performance degraded significantly.
In mid-February, PC Perspective broke the story about a potential issue with Intel's X25-M mainstream solid state drives involving fragmentation and performance slow downs. At that time, after having the news picked up by everyone from CNet to the Wall Street Journal, Intel's started working with us...
Corsair's 128GB SSD
Corsair's first entry into the world of solid state drives is a 128GB model based around the current generation Samsung controller. Though we have done numerous reviews of SSDs in the past, I take a slightly different approach on the evaluation looking at what advantages you can see when upgrading your notebook or system to even a lower cost SSD option.
It's a mixed platter of results

The new Seagate Barracuda 7200.12s have a few advantages over the previous generation. There is no bad firmware to give this generation a bad name, as well they have made a move to 500GB platters for this generation. Bjorn3D's testing showed that the move did not result in a clear improvement; speed for burst and read seems to have decreased, while the write speed has increased. On the other hand, once in a RAID environment the drives showed improvements from the previous generation, in addition to needing

Ariel Motors announces completely customizable motorcycle
Each individual bike will be made to fit riders' requirements
By PoliceOne Staff
British sports car manufacturer Ariel has announced that a new motorcycle will hit the market in 2015 — the Ariel Ace.
The Ace will feature Honda's 173bhp 1237cc V4 engine and drive system.
Ariel says each individual bike will be made to fit riders' requirements, and with lots of customizable options, each Ace has the advantage of being totally personalized.
Customizable options include front and rear suspensions, handlebars, bodywork, size of fuel tank, size of exhaust, and lightweight carbon-fiber wheels or aluminum wheels.
Colors, materials and finishes on the bike will also be tailor made.
Similar to Ariel's best known go-kart the Atom, the Ace can be upgraded over time at the car manufacturer factory.
The bike's design is a combination of traditional bike design values and current superbike trends, and used CAD and traditional clay modelling techniques.
Other features include a machined aluminum frame, Honda VFR1200 V4 engine in manual or DCT form, shaft drive, three options for seats, control positions, footrests, and more.
Only about 100-150 bikes are expected to be produced each year, starting in early 2015.

CdSe/ZnS colloidal quantum dots generally exist as blinking phenomena during the luminescence process that remarkably influences its applications. In this work, we used the surface plasmonic effect to effectively modulate single quantum dots. Obvious contrasts have been observed by comparing single quantum dots on silica and gold films. The surface plasmon is shown to obviously suppress the blinking of single quantum dots. With further demonstrated second- order correlation measurements, an anti-bunching effect was observed. The anti-bunching dip gives the smallest value of g (2)(0) = 0.15, and the lifetime of the exciton has been reduced. This method presents the application's potential towards tunable high-emitting-speed single photon sources at room temperature.
