The Lawyer's Web Week is a weekly commentary on legal activity on the web. This includes an overview of the best of the week's blogs. If you want to direct us to useful links, email webweek@ thelawyer. com.
•Caught in the webThe Bar Council has a brand new website. Visit www.bar council.org.uk to see chairman Geoffrey Vos QC introducing the website in moving pictures and read his very first blog: "When you read this, I will be on a BC visit to India, travelling to Mumbai, Delhi and Kolkota over 6 days – it promises to be something of a punishing schedule."
Lucky Geoffrey. But Tim Kevan and Aidan Ellis of 1 Temple Gardens have more serious things on their minds: "As we launch the Bar Council Blog this week and reflect upon the convergence of old and new, it raises an issue that may become increasingly relevant for prospective lawyers of the future: the extent to which they may take account of an applicant's online footprint."
Bloody hell, Web Week has only just got round to sorting out its carbon footprint. Now we've got to worry about our online footprint.
They continue: "A recent YouGov poll was reported in IT Pro to show that 15 per cent of firms rejected employees on the basis of their online footprint and this was as high as 25 per cent when it came to HR managers.
"This is not to suggest that everyone should sit around being so cautious that they become like the worst politicians, saying nothing, taking no risks and draining the soul out of any of their communications. However, it is to remind people that just like email, what you post is not the same as having a conversation with your friends, something which disappears into the ether. "This is not to give a view on the rights and wrongs of any such searches. But it is to counsel caution when you sit down in front of a computer and think of writing a rude or indiscreet comment online."
•Computer monitorsKevan and Ellis may be interested to see the emergence of a bloggers' code of conduct at radar.oreilly.com/archives/2007/04/draft_bloggers_1.html.
Tim O'Reilly writes: "We celebrate the blogosphere because it embraces frank and open conversation. But frankness does not have to mean lack of civility. We present this Blogger Code of Conduct in hopes that it helps create a culture that encourages both personal expression and constructive conversation.
"The key points so far are:
-We take responsibility for our own words and for the comments we allow on our blog.
-We won't say anything online that we wouldn't say in person.
-We connect privately before we respond publicly. When we encounter conflicts and misrepresentation in the blogosphere, we make every effort to talk privately and directly to the person(s) involved – or find an intermediary who can do so – before we publish any posts or comments about the issue.
-When we believe someone is unfairly attacking another, we take action. When someone who is publishing comments or blog postings that are offensive, we'll tell them so (privately, if possible – see above) and ask them to publicly make amends. If those published comments could be construed as a threat, and the perpetrator doesn't withdraw them and apologize, we will cooperate with law enforcement to protect the target of the threat.
-We do not allow anonymous comments. We require commenters to supply a valid email address before they can post, though we allow commenters to use an alias, rather than their real name.
-We ignore the trolls. We prefer not to respond to nasty comments about us or our blog, as long as they don't veer into abuse or libel. We believe that feeding the trolls only encourages them – 'Never wrestle with a pig. You both get dirty, but the pig likes it.' Ignoring public attacks is often the best way to contain them."
•Hitting the right notes
Dundas & Wilson gets funky with its first construction podcast. But the opening few bars of that opening jingle is about as good as it gets.

Microbial Superglue May Lead To Faster, Safer Vaccines
The development of a vaccine is a rather long and complicated process. Also, it isn't always successful. While we may hear of great advancements in the media, such as last year's successful trial of the Ebola vaccine, usually the news comes after decades of work in the laboratory examining potential candidates. Taking the Ebola vaccine as an example, the first attempts occurred nearly two decades ago.
The trouble with vaccine development is not a result of scientific error but rather due to the complex nature of the immune system and its ability to respond to a threat. Three specific criteria need to be met in order to attain a proper vaccine candidate. If any one of these proves to be too great, the entire process may be stopped.
The first hurdle is rather simple in nature: the candidate has to efficiently stimulate the immune system. This trait is known as immunogenicity and is the hallmark of any vaccine. Unfortunately, finding a proper type or strain may be difficult at best and in some cases, such as the common cold-causing rhinoviruses, may be almost impossible.
The second obstacle involves another branch of the immune system, memory. A candidate must have the ability to provoke the immune system such that it wants to remember the pathogen should it ever come again. Usually, one shot can achieve this memory, but in some cases, such as hepatitis B virus, memory can be lost over time. This hurdle can be managed with multiple vaccinations over time, also known as boosters.
The final step in vaccine success happens to also be the first in terms of clinical testing. The vaccine needs to be safe. This is perhaps the greatest hurdle as the results will determine whether the public will raise shirt sleeves instead of doubts. Indeed, in today's overly concerned society safety is perhaps the greatest threshold in terms of acceptance.
Finding the right vaccine candidate to achieve all three steps is obviously difficult, and many options have been identified to ensure success. Many vaccines are based on the whole organism, but some rely solely on pieces of the pathogen, such as a protein. This route focuses not on the whole, but on the sum of one or more parts. It's also the most effective in terms of safety as the risk for side effects declines significantly.
Last week, an international team of researchers unveiled new means to make vaccine candidates from proteins.
But this path is difficult as significant work in the lab is needed to put the protein into a safe and effective vehicle for injection. This could mean adding a modified version of the protein directly into the body, such as tetanus toxin, or cloning the protein into a harmless virus as seen in the most recent Ebola vaccine candidate. Both routes are difficult to accomplish and take significant time to develop.
But there may be a new way to develop these vaccines safely. Last week, an international team of researchers unveiled new means to make vaccine candidates from proteins. Instead of trying to modify or clone the proteins, these researchers have come up with an entirely new concept: they use bacterial superglue.
The glue in this case isn't the same as the white stuff you find in kindergarten classrooms. It's made up of amino acids, the building blocks of proteins. When the right combination of these molecules is put together, it attaches so tightly that it's almost impossible to break. For the researchers, this seemed to be an excellent route towards vaccine development.
The process was rather straightforward. The team first inserted some of the glue-like amino acids into the vehicle of choice, a harmless virus of bacteria (bacteriophage) known as AP205. The other sticky amino acids were added to the vaccine candidates, in this case, proteins from a rather nasty infection, malaria. Once this was accomplished, the phage and the malarial protein were put together overnight and allowed to stick together.
The next and most important step was to determine if the new vaccine concept actually worked. The team injected the sticky mix into mice and then followed the animals' immune responses. Sure enough, the mice developed both an immune response and memory, meeting the first two criteria. Best of all, there were no side effects, suggesting the process was safe.
The authors suggested this new method for vaccine development may be useful in two ways. First, it provides an easy and quick route to screen vaccines to reduce the time needed to get to animal and clinical trials. But more importantly, the superglue method may offer a way to vaccinate individuals in a completely safe manner such that the risk for side effects -- and doubt -- is even further minimized. In light of the current need for rapid vaccine development, the superglue may be the answer we need.

The flu shot can give you a sore arm and aches. Each year's vaccine is only designed to protect against the strains it includes. Fever occurs infrequently after vaccination, according to the Public Health Agency of Canada.
A nasal spray version of the vaccine is approved for use in Canada. Provincial health plans may not cover the cost.
A review of studies from 1967 to 2012 concluded that standard injectable influenza vaccines containing three strains protect healthy adults aged 18 to 64 at a rate of about 59 per cent. Michael Osterholm, an infectious disease expert at the University of Minnesota and the report's lead author. "During some influenza seasons vaccination offers substantially more protection for most of the population than being unvaccinated; however, influenza vaccine protection is markedly lower than for most routinely recommended vaccines and is suboptimal," the report concluded.
Pharmacists in four provinces — British Columbia, Ontario, Alberta and New Brunswick, can give flu shots. Official regulations for pharmacists are pending in Manitoba, Quebec and Nova Scotia, said Jeff Morrison of the Canadian Pharmacists Association. Matthews said that by expanding the scope of practice for pharmacists gives people more options to get immunized, such as coming in for a flu shot during their lunch break.
Getting immunized during pregnancy protects women and infants for the first six months of life when they can't be vaccinated, Dr. Scott Halperin, head of the Canadian Centre for Vaccinology in Halifax, said in an interview. If you are pregnant (or planning to get pregnant) it is safe to get immunized with the inactivated influenza vaccine, Alberta Health Services says.

A man and a woman walk toward each other on a crowded street. He sees her, and the shape of her hip and the small dip it makes captures him. His shoulders ensnare her; their width and proportion so strong they could carry her anywhere, even down a ladder. But at that moment, as the sun warms them, they see how the love affair will end. Sitting at a table on an early winter night. He surveys the restaurant's clean lines of steel and bleached wood. She inspects the plates of tuna and eel bound to mounds of rice. He swirls his wine and watches the vortex form. She sips her martini, watching the familiar bulge of his jaw. He watches the lines of her cheeks rise with the disappointment of an unknown expectation. She tells him she wants to be friends. He asks why? She can't tell him she doesn't want to bear his children.
He sees their first fight. The one they have after they've lived together long enough that the novelty has waned. He drinks a glass of wine beyond normal, or what she considers normal. And when he breaks the ceramic pot with the Japanese symbol the vendor told them meant timeless connection. The pot they bought on their first weekend living together in this space that had been hers. That's what comes up when she tells him half a bottle of merlot ought to be enough. What did he need to escape from? He stares at her and pours another glass. Asks her if she wants to know, and like some animal, not a deer or a rabbit but something with a disproportionate belief in its toughness, she says, yes.
She sees the first time they make love. How he slows down and lingers over her - takes a sip, holds it on his tongue, letting it unfold, swirls it, explores the legs and lets her breathe. Instead of having to jump and sweat to keep up, she has time to understand, that this moment, when softness turns to urgency and the body focuses without constraint, is why all the attention is warranted.
He sees the first kiss. His lips firm. Hers soft. The thrill of her acceptance and submission mixed with the oddness of her taste, the texture of her hair, rougher than he imagined, stronger than he hoped. Feels how his desire blooms. He wants to please, protect, and grow in her eyes. He sees how all of this folds into a single kiss with her hair lightly entwined in his fingers.
She sees his desire as he comes towards her on the street. He sees her slow. She passes knowing he will stop and turn. He turns knowing she will be looking at him. Both hoping against knowledge and insight that they will ignore it all and move towards each other.

Holes in Floor
I recently was prepping the floor of my 57 Fairlane for primer , the floors are in good shape for a 57 , only a few minor rust spots, but I have noticed these diamond shaped holes in the floor that are factory produced, when I crawl under the car there are little tabs sticking down , I used my body hammer to tap them back up and I am going to mig them up , there must be about 9 or 10 of them between the front and back , also there are 2 floor plugs on the drivers side and 2 on the passenger side plus one on each side in the rear footwells. Is it any wonder these cars rusted the way they did!
Has anybody welded these holes up including the plug holes??
Let's also put this thread in Body-Exterior.

|RE: [Proposal: C2.1] Split CocoonServlet from Cocoon
|Thu, 26 Jul 2001 19:07:35 GMT
Could Cocoon not be positioned as an alternative to Jasper and be coded as a plug-in substitute? A combination of information in the web.xml and a flow-map would control it's ability for each context/webapp? My only concern then would be it's scalability. In it's current configuration it's easy to ensure scalability by creating another context/webapp which handles some of the load (ie 2 (or more) cocoons), if there is a move to only one (which is good from a disk size/management/memory point of view) then it _must_ scale well. Thoughts?

Mark O'Flaherty reviews Puerto Rico
Travel writer Mark O'Flaherty describes why Puerto Rico is such a fantastic destination for your next luxury holiday to the Caribbean…
"Puerto Rico!?" My friend laughed as she said it out loud. I'd said I was heading to the Caribbean and she'd asked which island.
There's no denying that this corner of paradise has something of an image problem – a hangover from the days of West Side Story and gang crime. There's still a lot more urban grit in pockets around San Juan than you might find on the likes of Mustique, but this really is a destination on the up. And not just for the thousands of people who flood into beautiful, candy coloured old San Juan when their cruise ships dock for a day.
Since my last visit ten years ago, a whole new food scene has developed: Santaealla, in the bustling Placita district of San Juan, is one of the chicest restaurants I've been to in years. The cuisine gives unique Puerto Rican twists on classic dishes (spring rolls have a morcilla filling; baby octopus comes stewed with chorizo and chickpeas in sherry), and the cocktails are fantastic. Close by, José Enrique's eponymous no-reservations dining room commands waits of several hours on weekend nights, but it's no hardship to wander the market area for a rum punch or three.
Resort life around Puerto Rico has undergone a massive upgrade – the St Regis Bahia and The Ritz-Carlton Dorado Beach are world class properties. And if you're looking for fly and flop (as many New Yorkers are, with flight times of just over 4 hours from JFK), these are standout places.
You need to hop on a ferry for a Cape Air puddle jumper for 15 minutes to get to Vieques, but it's absolutely worth it. The W Resort brings a touch of urban cool to an island that, for years, was partially occupied by the US military. And the new El Blok hotel is filling the pages of design magazines and blogs with its concrete curves and dramatic shadow patterns (and Jose Enrique's restaurant).
You can find the kind of solitude and beauty on Vieques that rarely exists anywhere in the Caribbean anymore – the military occupation means that miles of beaches are undeveloped and raw, reachable only by jeep. And the bioluminescent bay, which sparkles like diamonds in a moonless night, is the brightest and most spectacular in the world.

Be Proactive About Agronomic Crop Pests
Mites in Corn
The warmer weather and expected drought conditions in the West could make for a suitable environment for outbreaks of mites this season. In the last several years, a number of Utah counties have had to deal with Bank's grass mite and sometimes two-spotted spider mite in corn. Warm and dry conditions allow mites to build up rapidly because their generation times are shortened, they feed more, road dust builds up on corn leaves creating favorable mite habitat, and their natural predators are less effective under these conditions. In addition, drought-stressed plants are thought to have increased availability of amino acids allowing mites to thrive. With this in mind, proper irrigation is key for avoiding mite outbreaks and monitoring mite populations is a useful tool to decide whether treatment is warranted.
Start with monitoring drought-stressed sections of a field for mites. For established mite infestations, the general guideline for mite treatment is if damage on the lower third of the plant is visible and mite colonies are present on the middle third of the corn plants. Note that mite treatments when corn has reached the hard-dough stage are too late to provide an economic benefit.
Alfalfa Weevil
Using a 15-in diameter sweep net, alfalfa weevil larvae can be calculated on a per sweep basis to determine whether management is recommended.
Early season monitoring of alfalfa weevil is key for successful suppression and improving the bottom line. Weevil damage occurs early in the season around the first cutting. Therefore the best success for management is monitoring weevil larvae with a sweep net (or stem sampling) regularly before the first cutting when stems are at least 10 inches tall. In 2008, USU county faculty conducted a study investigating commercial alfalfa fields where insecticides were used to treat weevil versus fields where weevil was not treated. They found that yield was not affected by treatment of weevil because weevils did not reach economic thresholds that year (<10 weevil larvae per sweep) - treatment would not have been recommended. Sampling in this case would have helped growers' bottom line. Unnecessary treatment of weevil, particularly with pyrethroid insecticides, can also lead to outbreaks of other pests like aphids that would require additional treatment costs.
Unfortunately, weevils are most problematic following a warm spring because weevils are active early in the season as alfalfa starts to grow. In cool springs (consistent daytime temperatures of 40-48°F) alfalfa is able to get a head-start and sometimes "outgrow" weevils which remain inactive at these cool temperatures. In a warm spring it is likely that monitoring will reveal that weevil numbers have exceeded an economic threshold (more than 15-20 weevil larvae per sweep) and require treatment.
If the threshold is exceeded, what are the options? If the threshold is reached within 1 to 2 weeks of anticipated harvest, consider harvesting hay early and quickly removing bales from the field as an as an alternative to insecticides. Although some growers find it useful to run a spring-tooth harrow through the field following a cutting to mechanically crush weevil stages, it is generally not recommended because of the damage it can cause to alfalfa crowns and allow entrance for disease pathogens. The limited research on harrow use for weevil suppression does not support a measurable benefit. Finally, monitoring early can allow for better timing of any necessary insecticide treatments.

School of Business Alumnus Joseph Echevarria Elected CEO of Deloitte LLP
April 25, 2011
An alumnus of the School of Business Administration and member of the School's Board of Overseers has been elected to the position of chief executive officer at Deloitte LLP, the largest professional services organization in the U.S. The appointment of Joseph J. Echevarria, Jr. (BBA '78) to the top post at the U.S. arm of Deloitte Touche Tohmatsu is effective June 1.
Echevarria was selected in 2007 to serve in his current role as U.S. managing partner and chief operating officer, Deloitte LLP, leading approximately 50,000 professionals in nearly 90 cities throughout the United States and in India. He is responsible for all of Deloitte's business subsidiaries, which deliver audit, tax, consulting and financial advisory services, as well as all of its shared service functions.
For Echevarria, an auditor himself, the critical role Deloitte plays in serving the investor public is of paramount importance. "More than ever, we recognize our role in maintaining the integrity of the capital markets and the reliance placed on audited financial statements. The highest standard of professionalism and quality in this area is one of my top priorities," said Echevarria.
"I am deeply honored to be elected by my partners and principals to be CEO of this great firm. As the largest professional services organization in the U.S., we have an obligation to lead," continued Echevarria. "Excellence in all of the professional services we provide constitutes the foundation of our success. As markets were shaken and major players disappeared overnight, we've made a clear choice to focus on superior performance, innovation and growth across all our practice areas. Great firms are growth firms."
"Talent is the engine of our excellence, innovation and growth," Echevarria added. "I am proud of the fact that our people are more diverse than ever before; it has made us a better organization and more attractive to top talent." In recognition of his leadership in diversity, the Association of Latino Professionals in Finance and Accounting (ALPFA) named Echevarria "Executive of the Year in 2007" and he now serves on ALPFA's Corporate Advisory Board.
"We are delighted to learn of Joseph Echevarria's appointment and very proud to call him one of our own," said Frances Aldrich-Sevilla Sacasa, the School's interim dean. "Joe stands as a role model to our students and is an inspiration to the entire School of Business community. We are fortunate to have him serving as an advisor and to benefit from his compassion and commitment to our students and to the growth of the School."
Since joining in 1978, Echevarria has held a number of leadership positions including Deloitte LLP's deputy managing partner and Southeast region audit managing partner for Deloitte & Touche LLP. Echevarria serves as chair of Deloitte's Operating Committee and is a member of its Executive and Succession Planning Committees. He also holds positions in several committees and boards in the DTTL member firms network including the Americas Executive.
In addition to supporting the UM School of Business through his service on the Board of Overseers, Echevarria has participated in the School's Executive in Residence program. In 2009, he sat in on an undergraduate accounting class and participated in a case study discussion. He also gave an engaging presentation to a large audience of students, faculty and staff. When he joined the School's Board of Overseers, Echevarria spoke of his commitment to help the School of Business grow.
"The University of Miami prepared me for my career at Deloitte and gave me a solid foundation for success," he said. "I've enjoyed returning to the campus as an Executive-in-Residence. Serving on the board, I can support the School in its efforts to continue to grow and build upon its strong academic standing."

The porn industry gets a bit of a bad rep sometimes.
To some, it's a shady business associated with being a bad influence on the youth of today. But, mainly, it's just widely misunderstood.
There's also a heck of a lot we still don't know about what is still quite a private industry.
Now, the good people at WatchMojo have researched the industry and produced a top five 'crazy' facts you probably never knew about porn…
1) The first 'pornographic' film was made in 1896
The Kiss was produced by Thomas Edison and it was pretty damn saucy for the time. The film simply featured two actors kissing.
It's not the kind of thing which would even raise an eyebrow nowadays but back in the 19th century it caused outrage, was seen as the most shocking thing ever committed to celluloid, and it heralded a whole new era for movie classification.
2) Porn makes more than the video game industry
Business is booming for the gaming industry but nowhere near as much as it is for the porn industry. In 2014 it was estimated the porn industry made approximately $97 billion (£64bn), whereas in 2013 the video game industry was estimated at roughly $93 billion (£61bn). Maybe all that free porn on the Internet hasn't been a death knell for the porn industry, after all!
3) Los Angeles county was the centre of the porn world, or at least it used to be
LA has always been associated with filmmaking in all its forms, which included porn. It's also generally the site of the AVN awards each year.
However, times are changing as a 2012 law made it mandatory for condom use in any adult movie created in LA county, which led to a mess exodus from the San Fernando valley.
4) Male actors have it the hardest
It ain't as fun as you might think being a guy in a porn film. Their pay is cut significantly if they don't orgasm at the end of the shoot (well, they do call it the "money shot"). No pressure, lads!
On average, women are also paid around twice as much as male actors, making it one of the few industries where the pay gap is actually reversed.
5) Pornographers may be responsible for VHS making Betamax obsolete
Porn has always been ahead of the curve when it comes to embracing new technologies and many credit pornographers' decision to go with VHS over Betamax as the reason video grew in popularity and made its predecessor obsolete.
They chose VHS as it was cheaper and a single cassette could contain more footage. Will it be the porn industry which spots the next big gap in the market?

Pisek - a nice place to spend some time
... all been very helpful and eager to make your stay enjoyable. Pisek is a really impressive town, and we were lucky that we got in early enough to enjoy the sites. Pisek has charming cafes, lots of beautiful old buildings in the centrum, and especially baroque houses that are very ornate and well maintained. Most of the centre is cobblestones and no cars, giving it that small town, European friendly appeal, just what we like to see. We headed out through ...
Cobblestone paths make you go ouch
... we were confronted by a huge dam wall so we dropped into the town at the bottom called Solenice which was pretty much shut, as most little towns are at this time of year. We took on the dam as a bit of a training run for the massive hills we'll face later on. Up until now the roads have been good. Unfortunately this 1km hill up about 250m was cobblestones the whole way, just like you see the cyclists going over in the Tour de France. This gave us harsh memories ...
Day 10 - Prague to Orlik (46 miles)
We were impressed with Camp Matyas where we stayed near Prague and would recommend it to other travellers - close to the station, clean facilities, good restaurant with cheap, home cooked and good quality food and lots of little extra touches throughout including one free return train journey to Prague. Our short journey to Orlik was uneventful and the only thing of note was the road FROM ...

... any language as far as the kids were concerned. After going in the room where they boil the malt and practically melting we went down to the brewing room which was a freezing 2 degrees for a nice cold beer. Once the tour was over we proceeded back to the van for lunch prior to heading of to our next stopover ...
Day 18 - Our Last Travel Day
Our last travel day (not including tomorrow's long flight home) began at 8:30 after breakfast at the hotel in Prague.
Not too much to report here.
We stopped for a break at the town of Tabor, Czech Republic, where we had about 45 minutes to stretch our legs and grab a coffee. Our last chance to get rid of our Czech Crowns (Money).
From there we completed our trip back to Vienna, Austria, with a stop for lunch along the way.

"Coleman heat pump A/C unit"
I am very happy that Climatize of Kingston, TN installed my new heat pump/ ac unit and added another return in my double wide mobile home. My original unit never evenly cooled the home. Now my electric bill will go down and my whole house is cooler. Robert Howell and his crew were extremely knowledgeable and courteous of my needs. I highly recommend anyone with a mobile home, who has uneven cooling/ heating problems, install a return on the other end of the trailer when updating their heating system.

Unit extremely quiet, operating temperature excellent. Installation crew were very professional and completed the job expediently; clean up was exemplary. Although the unit has only been installed for a few days the conditions under which it is currently operating are at the upper end of temperature and humidity requirement, unit has performed extremely well and providing the home comfort we were expecting. Would recommend brand and installation crew to friends and neighbours.

"Revolv/Coleman 5-ton Package"
4 days after installation, the unit failed! After having a local A/C service confirm the failure that I had to pay for, with the manufacture they have done nothing? I have called their tech group only to leave a message no one will answer the phone? They did call me back 3 days later only to insult me. I spoke with someone whom I believe is the owner of the company and he promised me that they would take care of the problem asap, only to be lied to. It's been 4 days now and still have no A/C after spending $2500.00 on a piece of junk?

"Leaky Unit!!!"
Purchased this unit for installation on new home less than 5 years ago. Started having issues after 4. I have coped and must have it for the humidity in Northwestern Minnesota. As soon as I was up here full time the unit started giving us issues losing the coolant. Been filled at least 6 times and the leak can't be found. Unit wasn't used overly much before last year. Already expended $600 and am unemployed, can go no further. O-rings missing or installed incorrectly at factory!

"Bad Quality and Worse Service"
A few years ago, I had a Coleman central air conditioner installed. It ran fine for about 3 days, then the weather cooled off. The next summer, it didn't work due to a tiny hole in the compressor. I suspect it was defective or damaged in transit or installation. Coleman replaced it but I was charged almost $600 for labour. This year, I turned it on for the first time since it was "fixed". It didn't work. You have been waiting a week for the Coleman distributor to return my repair company's call. This air conditioner, to date, has cost almost $2000/day to run and still doesn'T.

I have had 19 year old system installed by a local hvac company here in the memphis, TN area; used to split my system as I only had one system in a 2 story house; was very satisfied with contractor and have been pretty much been satisfied with the coleman system; not too many repairs over the years other than the normal things; I did have the coils changed about 8 years ago and now the coil is leaking again, which I had to add some costly freon last summer; I am now contemplating replacing my system; have been satisfied with coleman, but I think I will replace with another mf, not sure @ this point, but would recommend the coleman

"2 bad units"
I bought 2 Coleman Mach units of 13,500 BTU's in February 08 with the extended warranty of 3 years. 1 unit had to be replaced this year after constant service calls that were not covered by warranty. It leaked gas and was not working when I needed it the most. The other unit just gave up after less than 4 years. They are really bad units and not worth the money. I am in Florida and I need a/c. It did not work when I needed it the most. Do not buy Coleman A/C unit

"3 compressors"
My house is not even 4 years old and I've been thru 3 compressors, replaced one fan on the outside unit, had my unit charged 2 other times besides when replacing the compressors, and will soon need a coil replacement. This unit has been nothing but trouble. I would tell anyone to stay away from Coleman and anything Johnson Controls has anything to do with. The customer service from the manufacture was less than acceptable. All my problems were handled promptly by my local repair company with little support from the manufacture. I would just like my money back and go with another brand.

Gorak Plane
this wiki
The Gorak Plane is a dimension inhabited only by Goraks. The plane is only accessible through the fairy rings (code DIR). Players can use fairy rings once the Fairytale II - Cure a Queen quest is partially completed, and players visit the Gorak Plane during that quest to retrieve a pair of Gorak claws, an ingredient for Magic essence potions.
The Goraks constantly draw the life essence from any living being they encounter, as well as the world they live on. In doing so, they have effectively trapped themselves on this small plane, leaving what's left of it noticeably warped.
The Gorak Plane is a relatively small area, shaped roughly like a doughnut. In the middle is a large number of lumbering goraks, and the fairy ring.
Around the middle is a grey cloud, that can be entered by clicking on it. Note that entrance into the cloud can fail, so it should not be relied on to escape the Goraks if in mortal danger. The outer ring of the plane is a thick cloud, with occasional arcs of electricity visible. Around the outer rim is a thicker cloud. This layer can't be passed, and if clicked, the player gets disoriented and randomly appears in another part of the ring. To leave, click on the inner rim of the cloud. It can be difficult to leave the outer ring, so if a cloud doesn't yield, continue around the circle testing the clouds; eventually a part of the cloud will yield. Note that if the player tries to enter a cloud next to them, they will not enter it, but walk 2 steps in that direction. This glitch has not been fixed; only click the cloud right in front of the player to get out of the clouds.
Gorak attacks ignore prayer and hit hard, so be careful when in the Gorak Plane. When Goraks hit, not only do they damage a player's life points, they also drain a random skill by 1.

PS4 Coming in November
Just hours ahead of the big PS4 reveal this evening (11pm GMT HERE if you want to watch live) we have a new report coming in that the PlayStation 4 will release sometime in November 2013 and you'll be able to control it with your phone, similar to Microsoft's smartglass tech.
According to the Kotaku source there are two models of the PS4 planned for launch, but pricing won't be officially revealed until later in the year. The intended US pricing as it stands, is $429 for the base version and $529 for the more advanced one.
Tablet and smartphone connectivity is expected too, to help compete with Microsoft's similar technology and you'll be able to use your phone to chat with other players in-game. On top of that, you can buy games using your phone which are then automatically downloaded to your console.
It's also rumoured that Sony will be dropping its free online service and replacing it with a paid for premium subscription, akin to Microsoft's Xbox Live.
Other little details include the fact that the new console bundles will come with a PlayStation eye camera and there will be a new spectating feature where you can watch your friends play games that you don't own from your dashboard – Sony fans can thank Gaikai technology for that.

Pokemon: Selenite
Chapter One
Disclaimer: I don't own Pokemon. Who would have guessed?
A/N: Okay, this is my first time writing for the Pokemon fandom since I was in grade four. I don't know how good it is, so reviews, especially constructive criticism, are appreciated.
Neon town. They call it the city that never sleeps, and that's fairly accurate; she would know, having lived there all of a month, and suffered from insomnia all that time. Of course, that was probably better attributed to the fact that she had recently spent most nights up studying for her Pokemon trainer's exam, and when she wasn't studying it was hard to get her body to settle back into a normal sleeping pattern. She had taken her exam this morning, but didn't yet know the results. So, like any other day where she didn't have to study, she sneaked out and walked up and down the streets. She'd done this many times before, and knew she wouldn't get in trouble as long as she didn't get caught.
Which she probably would today. It had started to rain, coming down in cold heavy drops that immediately drenched her and turned the sidewalk that weird brown colour. The rain smelled like smoke, she noted. Maybe there was a fire nearby, and the ashes had mingled with the water vapor in the air. Not that it really mattered anyway, but there was nothing else to do now besides think about things, was there?
The rain looked kind of like stained glass as it fell in front of the neon lights from which the town got its name. The water was dripping from the tips of her shoulder-length black hair, and droplets clung to her thin-rimmed silver glasses, obscuring her already poor vision. She found she didn't really care. That test had been hard, and she was sure she'd gotten most of the answers wrong. She felt kind of burned out, and could do nothing but wait with dull anticipation for tomorrow to come.
She was hit by a splash of clear water as car drove past through the deep puddles. The vehicle was silver and expensive looking, with windows tinted so dark she couldn't see inside. That's weird, she thought. You usually didn't see people driving those in the Kanto region.
The downpour didn't let up for one second, and as the streets became one big puddle the water seemed to thrash around wildly. It reminded her of that Gyrados she had seen, a trainer riding it across a lake. It was what had made her first want to become a trainer: having the power to travel anywhere, no one able to stop her. No one able to tell me what to do, she thought dreamily.
"Amanda!" a voice called from behind her, and startled, she jerked out of her musings and turned around. She saw her older sister coming towards her, an angry expression on her face.
"Hey Katana," she said nonchalantly.
Katana was seven years older than Amanda, making their respective ages 17 and 10. They looked quite different, although there was a definite family resemblance. They both had startlingly green eyes and dark hair and skin. Katana was much taller, and always looked elegant, in contrast to her short, clumsy sister. The older girl also tended to be quieter. "I'm so glad I found you, hopefully Mom hasn't had a chance to notice you're missing and freak out yet. What are you trying to do, running off like that? Do you…" At that point, Amanda stopped paying attention to what she was saying, as something else caught her attention.
Out of the corner of her eye, she noticed something moving. It was small, light-coloured. It ducked behind a garbage can before she could make out any more details. Cautiously, she approached it, trying not to splash the water around too much as she walked. Katana had fallen silent as she noticed what Amanda was doing. Just as the younger girl was about to reach out to move the can aside, Katana grabbed her arm.
"What do you think you are doing?" she hissed, in that peculiar accent she had. She had lived in many different cities and even regions, giving her a fusing of different dialects. Amanda knew she probably had the same quirk, but to her it seemed more noticeable in her sister.
"There's something behind there!" she whispered back frantically.
"I know that! But you're just a kid, you can't just go up to strange Pokemon!"
"I'm not a little child, and how do you know it's a Pokemon. There don't seem to be any in this city anyway," she complained.
"Be quiet, you're going to scare it off! Just let me go up to it, okay?"
Amanda grudgingly conceded.
The moment Katana touched the garbage can, the thing jumped out, causing her to jerk her hand back and both sisters to gasp in shock. The thing appeared to be a mix of brown and white, and was flapping around in a blur, spraying water droplets everywhere. It had feathers, so Amanda assumed it was some sort of bird Pokemon. Suddenly, the thing stopped its frantic fluttering and collapsed to the ground, barely moving. It was indeed a bird Pokemon, just a tiny thing with shiny black eyes and dark brown feathers on its small wings and most of its body, with white plumage on its chest.
"A pidgey," stated Katana.
Amanda groaned inwardly. She hadn't even been able to recognize a common pidgey. There was no way she could have passed that test. What would happen, would she have to take it again next year?
She realized the pidgey still wasn't moving. "Is it sick or something?" she asked. Katana was an expert on bird Pokemon, they being her specialty. But to her surprise, her sister just shrugged.
"I don't know," she said finally. "There seems to be something wrong with its wings, but I'm not sure what." She slowly bent down, and gently reached out to pick up the bird Pokemon. Its eyes widened in what even Amanda recognized as terror, but it didn't struggle. Katana made a disgusted sound. "Its wings have been clipped. Honestly, who would do that to a Pokemon and then release it into the wild? It has no chance of survival if we leave it here. We should probably take it to a Pokemon center until its flight feathers grow back and it recovers from whatever illnesses it probably has from being unable to catch enough food in the wild."
"Okay, we should probably head out now."
"You mean I should probably head out now. You have to go home and change before you catch pneumonia," ordered Katana.
"But I found the Pidgey!"
"Look, I don't have time to argue with you! Every second we waste is putting this creature's life in danger. Besides, you're scaring it."
The creature had puffed itself up into what would have been a threatening pose had it not been soaking wet. Instead, it just looked frail and bizarre.
"Fine," said Amanda, turning around and sulking as she walked back to the house.

This spray is just wonderful. Multi-purpose .. could use at any time of the year!
CAn't wait to use this one this holiday season .. it's gorgeous!
This flutter vine is gorgeous! Actually plan to use it on a fall layout. It's one of the prettiest I've ever gotten!
Then this is the tool for you! Works great .. a little noisy but not as bad as I was expecting after reading the reviews. This is one tool that I will actaully use on a regular basis!
I have these in the peach color and loved them, so I ordered the blue ones as well. However, these are kind of dirty, dinghy looking to me. Hopefully I'll find just the right layout for them.
These are so cute. Something fun and different. Love the size as well as not being too bulky.
I just rec'd these and have alrady used them and plan to order them again. They are a perfect size for my page, not too bulky and very life like. Highly recommend them!
Perfect for girly layouts or valentine crafts of any kind. CAn't wait to dive into this one!
Well, I probably say that alot about BG collections. But I am really loving this one. It's great my vintage, shabby style scrapping. Great for a variety of subjects! If you love browns and greens, this one is for you!
Wonderful Bazzill weight cardstock. However, I didn't have a swatch of this color and it is not as dark as I was hoping for or as dark as it appears on computer but I'll keep it and use it anyway.

Angry Birds Maker Profit Plummets
The maker of the popular mobile game Angry Birds is reporting its operating profit plummeted in 2013. Rovio Entertainment says its profit tumbled by more than half last year and its revenue was basically flat at $216-million.
The Finland-based company cites investments in its animation business as the reason its operating profit went from well over $106-million in 2012 down to $50.6 million last year.
Rovio is working to adjust its business model and quickly adapt to evolving gaming trends.

The 91-year-old brand of corn cooking oil that first alerted the health-conscious US to the dangers of unsaturated fats, cholesterol and heart disease has a new British owner.
When launched in 1911, Mazola employed an army of salesmen who travelled the country cooking French fries on portable cookers in grocery stores. Today's short-order cooks are more likely to spray the oil on their grills from an aerosol.
Mazola and another 18 North American food brands have been sold by Britain's Unilever to Associated British Foods for $360m (£248m).
The deal gives ABF a leading position supplying oil to the US catering industry following its purchase of Whirl and Frymax from Procter & Gamble last year.
The other brands sold include Kingsford's corn starches, Karo and Golden Griddle syrups and Henri's salad dressing. Between them they had sales of $301m in 2001. Unilever said the brands were not core in the US, where it is focusing on Lipton, Hellmann's, SlimFast and Ben & Jerry's.

Clemens Krepler, M.D.
Clemens Krepler, M.D.
- Research Assistant Professor, Molecular and Cellular Oncogenesis Program
- 215-898-0002, Office
Clemens Krepler is a dermatologist specializing in cutaneous oncology, focusing on translational melanoma research and personalized medicine.
He received his medical degree from the University of Vienna, Vienna, Austria where he then spent two years of post-graduate training at the Department of Clinical Pharmacology. He was co-investigator on clinical trials testing bcl-2 antisense oligonucleotides in advanced melanoma patients. In addition to this, he was part of the molecular biology program focusing on novel melanoma therapies. He then transitioned into a dermatology residency with a special focus on dermato-oncology, gaining in-depth experience of all aspects of melanoma clinical care, from initial diagnosis and surgery to systemic therapies and palliative care, both on the ward and in the outpatient clinic. After receiving his specialist degree in dermatology, he joined the Wistar Institute in 2009 as a visiting scientist on a Max Kade fellowship.
His initial studies in the Herlyn lab were concentrated on novel targeted therapies in melanoma using 3D spheroid and in vivo xenograft transplantation models. He then focused on building the PDX (patient-derived xenografts) infrastructure managing a small but experienced team. PDX models are established without intermediate adaptation to in vitro growth from both MAPK inhibitor-naïve and -relapsed patients. Thus, PDX models resemble the original tumors closely in tissue architecture, genotype, and heterogeneity; the relapsed patient-derived samples phenocopy the patient's resistance whereas the naïve samples show initial tumor regression, often followed by relapse. Ongoing Projects are focusing on i. Characterization of the PDX bank (n~300), ii. Testing of novel compounds and combinations in relapsed PDX in vivo, and iii. Screening for novel targeted agent combinations. These three projects allow Dr. Krepler and his team to study melanoma as it is found in patients and focus on a personalized approach to the treatment of this highly heterogeneous disease. They expect that these studies will lead to novel biomarker signatures of response for subgroups of melanoma patients, and improvements in therapeutic combinations. Dr. Krepler's overarching goal is to translate melanoma research into effective therapies for patients.

Reading 2 Argyle 0 - Report
Reading 2
Van den Berg 16, Beerens 28
Argyle 0
By Rick Cowdery
TO no-one's great surprise, Argyle fell at the first hurdle in the EFL Cup for the fourth season in succession, succumbing to Championship opponents who, at the moment, they can only aspire to emulate.
A double Dutch dose of first-half goals from Joey van den Berg and his fellow Netherlander Roy Beerens, a full international, gave countryman Jaap Stam his first knockout victory since become manager at the Madejski in June.
Argyle manager Derek Adams had made four changes to the Pilgrims' starting line-up from the one which began the previous Saturday's 3-0 Sky Bet League 2 Home Park defeat by Luton Town.
Vincent Dorel was selected to keep goal in place of captain Luke McCormick, with the skipper's armband passing to Gary Sawyer; Fox was the preferred David in a midfield three as Ijaha also started life on the bench; and Fox's fellow Saturday substitutes Jake Jervis and Jordan Slew formed a three-man attacking unit with David Goodwilie, having swapped places with Jimmy Spencer and Ryan Donaldson.
Reading, 1-0 Madejski winners against Preston at the weekend, shuffled their pack even more, making five changes to their starting line-up. Craig Tanner, who played 50 times for the Pilgrims last season, was among their replacements.
It was a Tanner-like run, straight into the heart of the Argyle defence from John Swift, that threatened to undo a solid start by the Pilgrims' back four but, speaking of things solid, Swift's progress was halted with little fuss by Yann Songo'o.
Swift quickly bounced up and was able to deliver the free-kick from the Argyle right that gave Reading the lead, Van den Berg timing his unhindered run to the edge of the six-yard box and glancing a header past Dorel.
Argyle had understandably begun with a defensive game plan but the early goal necessitated opening up. That, in turn, encouraged Reading to play with even more impressive fluidity than previously.
Callum Harriott brought the best out of Dorel after Swift had broken against a defence that had pushed up and was therefore wrongfooted when Jervis was bundled off the ball to hasten a Reading counter attack.
Dorel made another good save minutes later, when Reading captain Chris Gunter joined in the home side's fun from right-back, but the ball fell to the feet of Beerens, who slammed the ball home.
Argyle, to their credit, did not let their heads drop in the face of now insurmountable odds. They worked hard and looked to make the most of what scraps came their way. A Slew-led break in first-half injury-time had the home side on the back foot and showed promise.
After the interval, Jervis broke from halfway and reached the edge of the Reading penalty area but his cross fell a shade short of Goodwillie.
The Scot pounced a wee while later after Graham Carey's free-kick from the left found its way to him on the right, switching feet smartly before firing a just the wrong side of spellchecker-busting goalkeeper Anssi Jaakkola's post.
Reading substitute Yakou Meite reminded everyone of the natural order of EFL life with a shot that followed a sweeping Royals move and extended Dorel once more.
The Pilgrims sent on Connor Smith – a tenth Argyle debutant this short season – and Spencer for the final 20 minutes, during which there was still plenty of defending to be done, with former Chelsea youngster Swift again asking Dorel to make a save.
Argyle kept going until the end and ended on the up. A move in injury-time, involving the impressive Smith, saw Spencer just fail to get a firm head on the ball, before Sonny Bradley zinged a shot into the side-netting.
Reading (4-3-3)
: 31 Anssi Jaakkola; 30 Tennai Watson, 4 Joey van den Berg, 3 Jake Cooper, 2 Chris Gunter (capt); 6 George Evans, 8 John Swift, 23 Danny Williams; 7 Roy Beerens, 18 Yann Kermorgant, 15 Callum Harriott (19 Yakou Meite 57).

Day 25 of 49 (Oct 2). Rain continues to plague us, but we are not daunted. We are in our destination spot and after coming this far, we do not intend to let a little (LOL) rain stop us. We were highly blessed for our Williamsburg tours but that's not going to be the case for Jamestown, I believe. Not only is it wet, but also very cool. Wendell dug out his sweatshirt to wear. Not me!
