Having problems with your iRobot Roomba Discovery SE Bagless Robotic Vacuum ?
My roomba discovery will not operate on the clean or max buttons, will do the spot clean and goes forward then circles. Turns itself off and plays a little da do da do do do do. I have emptied tray, sprayed with compressed air.
Answers :
If your Roomba goes "uh-oh", beep-beep-beep, that's a 3-beep error code, indicating that your vacuum motor is stalled. Remove the grill from the outside (back) of the dustbin and make sure that the impeller (looks like a fan) turns easily and is not clogged with dirt. Then try to run the robot with the bin ON but the grill OFF. You should be able to tell whether the vacuum impeller is spinning. If not, you'll need a new bin. You can confirm wth customer support by calling 1-877-855-8593.

Millions of litres of water that are routinely flushed away by Thames Water are to be recycled, it was announced on the eve of a hosepipe ban in London.
The move follows a public outcry over the company's practice of wasting the water used to flush out main pipes following repairs, replacement, or if customers have complained of discoloured water.
On Thursday, the company's nine million customers in London and the Thames Valley will be hit with hosepipe bans as the worst drought in the capital since 1922 continues, with provisional figures for March showing less than half the average rainfall for the month.
Senior figures in the water industry feared a public relations disaster if customers knew that millions of litres were being "wasted" while they were being told to cut back on baths and let their lawns turn brown.
One company, South East Water, which serves 2.1 million people in Kent, Sussex, Surrey, Hampshire and Berkshire, was exposed as allowing an estimated five million litres to gush into the gutter in an "undercover" flushing operation in the dead of night.
Richard Aylard, Thames Water's sustainability director, said: "We do have to flush mains for basic hygiene reasons but we are trying to see whether we can capture the water, store it in tankers and make it available for non-drinking purposes such as watering parks. All the companies are looking at this because it is a really tricky problem."
Karen Gibbs, policy manager at the Consumer Council for Water, said: "It is vitally important that companies maintain customer goodwill during the drought. While the picture of water running to waste does not look good, the water had been used to flush the mains to remove a build-up of iron deposits.
"This was in response to customer concerns about discolouration of their tap water. Maintaining water quality is a top priority, so for those customers it was the right thing to do, but the company should have better explained what it was doing, and why."
A spokeswoman for South East Water said: "In Bexhill, we had received feedback about water discolouration so it was important that we carried out the work to ensure the system was running crystal clear. Flushing water mains helps clear the network of naturally occurring harmless deposits."

Modelling a silver tracksuit for the latest edition of Elle, designer Karl Lagerfeld "once again talks about his love for the iPod," says MacBidouille.
This article has been reproduced in a new format and may be missing content or contain faulty links. Contact email@example.com to report an issue.
Apparently, Lagerfeld is always talking up iPods in France. He owns forty of them, after all.
The ad says: "These sweats are for someone that never jogs. Even if the metal grey color is very chic, it is not for me. However, I love iPod, I have forty of them. I recorded all the music I love on them."
While the ad is correctly translated, something's clearly wrong here. Surely Lagerfeld told Elle he has a 40 gigabyte iPod.
If not, and Lagerfeld does indeed have 40 of them, MacBidouille estimates they store 1.5 terabytes of music, or roughly $400,000 worth at the iTunes Music Store.Go Back to Top. Skip To: Start of Article.

Massive Portuguese earthquake 'could send a three-metre high tsunami towards British coast and submerge Isles of Scilly'
- Disaster planners say a repeat of the 1755 Great Lisbon quake is overdue
- Such a quake would wipe out Scillies and much of the coast of Cornwall
- Devon and Cornwall Local Resilience Forum wants warning system for UK
- Their concerns will be examined by government scientists and experts
Swathes of Britain could be left totally underwater by a tsunami in the Atlantic Ocean, it has been claimed.
An earthquake off Portugal could trigger disastrous levels of flooding along the coast of the UK, scientists have said.
The Isles of Scilly and parts of Cornwall would be worst hit if there were a repeat of the Lisbon earthquake of 1755.
The Isles of Scilly, which include Tresco, pictured, lie 45 miles off the coast of Cornwall, coulde be wiped out by a tsunami if Portugal suffered another devastating earthquake
Experts believe that a quake similar to the devastating one 250 years ago would send a 10ft wall of water towards the UK.
The tsunami would crash over the tip of Cornwall within a few hours – leaving much of the coast underwater and wiping the tiny Scilly Isles off the map.
The prospect of the natural disaster was raised at a meeting of the Devon and Cornwall Local Resilience Forum, which includes police, town planners and emergency services.
Members of the LRF told the meeting they fear Britain could suffer its own version of the 2004 Boxing Day Tsunami. They want an early warning system to alert bathers and people living on the coast, similar to technology used across Asia and America.
St Martin's is one of the five inhabited Isles of Scilly - plus dozens of islets - with a total population of around 2,100
Paul Netherton, assistant chief
constable of Devon and Cornwall Police and LRF chairman, said other
countries have suffered by failing to plan ahead.
He told the forum: 'After seeing the
devastation in Japan and Thailand we have to ask the question of the
scientific community – what and where would be the impact, is it likely
and, if it is, should we plan for it?
A lot of areas would cope but in others it would cause a big problem. We have to consider whether we do anything differently than we do now for severe weather events.
'Tsunami are different – you don't know they are coming and the water keeps coming and coming.'
Britain was last hit by a tsunami in 1755, the year of the great Lisbon earthquake, the meeting in Bristol was told.
In the event of an earthquake in the Atlantic, the public would currently rely on the British Geological Survey to register the quake and the arrival of a subsequent wave at nearby Portugal.
Neil Hamlyn, LRF coordinator in Devon and Cornwall, said: 'The Isles of Scilly could be affected greatly, the islands could be covered and disappear.'
Quake zone: Lisbon was ripped open by the 1755 earthquake which left fissures 15 feet wide in the city centre
The 1755 Lisbon earthquake almost totally destroyed Lisbon and adjoining areas and had a magnitude in the range of 8.5 on the Richter scale.
Under the Civil Contingencies Act of 2004, the UK maintains a National Risk Register of Civil Emergencies.
The very high risk table is currently
topped by pandemic flu, terrorist attacks and coastal flooding, though
the last major civil flooding emergency was on the east coast in 1953.
Mr Hamlyn says a tsunami is in the top 20 of the second category of high risks.
Other uniquely regional threats include a
nuclear submarine incident at Devonport dockyard and possible
contamination from old tin mines in Cornwall.
Work has also already been done to
predict the catastrophic impact should a massive slab of rock twice the
volume of the Isle of Man break away from the island of La Palma, in the
Canary Islands, and smash into the Atlantic Ocean.
The resulting tsunami, higher than
Nelson's Column and faster than a jet aircraft, would devastate the
eastern seaboard of America and inundate much of southern Britain.
The 1755 Lisbon earthquake, also known as the Great Lisbon Earthquake, occurred on Saturday, November 1, 1755.
The earthquake, which had its epicentre around 200 miles south-west of Cape St Vincent on the Portuguese coast, almost totally destroyed Lisbon and had a magnitude in the range of 8.5 on the Richter scale.
It struck in the morning and lasted between three and six minutes, leaving vast cracks 15ft wide in the city centre streets.
An engraving by Laplante from Le Monde Illustre shows how Lisbon was destroyed in the earthquake of 1755
Around 40 minutes later, a vast tsunami engulfed the city's docks and centre, followed by two more waves.
Estimates place the death toll in Lisbon alone between 10,000 and 100,000 people, making it one of the deadliest earthquakes in history.
But its devastating impact was not only felt in Portugal - it travelled more than a 1,000 miles before crashing into the British Isles.
At around 2pm on the same day, a wave reported to be between three to four metres in height hit the shores of Cornwall, smashing into Mount's Bay, the area's highest point, where it killed at least one person.
Estimates suggest that the death toll in Lisbon reached between 10,000 and 100,000 people, making it one of the deadliest earthquakes in history
The waves (there were two more) also struck the south coast and were even seen in the River Thames in London.
The tsunami even reached as far as Galway in Ireland, where it was described as being two metres high.
French writer Arnold Boscowitz claimed the wave caused a 'great loss of life and property occurred upon the coasts of Cornwall'.
Recent studies show that should another earthquake of the same magnitude happen, it could affect the south west of England.
A wave would take approximately five hours to travel to Britain, with maximum water heights reaching one to two metres around the vast coast of Cornwall.
But it would peak at around four metres (13ft) in Mount's Bay.

In the last year, he has accumulated signings to cutting-edge labels, and has been given a residency at Paris most notorious after-hours parties, namely French Kiss and Kit Kat at the Red Light. Born to an American father and to a French mother, the young Anthony split his time between New York and in the South of France in his early years. His first taste for music was given to him by his father, who shared a passion for jazz with him and had his own recording studio in Los Angeles. It was later on, in France, that he discovered and fell in love with electronic music, acquiring his first pair of decks at the age of 17 and getting his first gig the following year. He played in most of the major clubs on the French Riviera - Villa Rouge in Montpellier and Minimal in
To push his career a step further, Anthony left his home ground and moved to Paris. With hard work, persistence and no little amount of skill, he quickly established himself in the capital city's fantastic scene and was booked regularly to play at its most prestigious clubs, like Rex Club, Batofar, Red Light, Scene Bastille and Club 287.
More recently, as production success has pushed the Anthony Collins name further and further away, more DJ sets have followed at Pacha in Ibiza, Macarena and City Hall in Barcelona, Bar Morphine in Hamburg ,Climax in Stutgart , the Dirty Disco Leeds and Circo Loco partie at the end club in the UK. Anthony describes his style as a mix of minimal house, techno and deep tech-house.
Not being a DJ who puts one hit record after another, his DJ sets benefit from always blending meticulously chosen tracks with a real artistic reason to it. His sets also feature his technical ability, which incorporate Final Scratch, Traktor 3 and an external controller. Best of all, Anthony Collins production skills have reached another level and the bar is constantly being raised with each and every track. Europe's finest record labels have not been slow to pick up on this..

Rarely, maybe never, has one gun introduced as many new technologies as the Benelli Super Black Eagle II. The proven inertia-recoil system, with its unmatched ability to digest different ammunition types, is unchanged. Just about everything else is different.
The new ComforTech system reduces recoil up to 48% over the competition, without adding any moving parts or weight. Compared to competitive brands the Benelli weighs 13 to 15% less — on average, that's more than a pound less!The ComforTech system also reduces muzzle climb by 15%. For fast follow-up shots, this allows the shooter to get back on target up to 69% faster than the competition. The Crio barrel is frozen to -300° F which relieves stresses left over from hammer-forging. The result? The barrel moves consistently, shot after shot. It also produces a smoother bore that stays cleaner and offers less resistance to the wad and shot.
A new buttpad made of a shock-absorbing gel, originally developed for the medical industry, works with the ComforTech system to soak up recoil. Benelli engineers used extensive computer modeling to create an ergonomic design so refined that left- and right-handers have entirely different recoil pads. A new corrosion resistant recoil spring and guide remain free of rust and ride in a new recoil tube that is easily cleaned by removing the quick-detachable recoil pad. The Super Black Eagle II proves it — perfection can be improved.

Game of Thrones is back this Sunday, which means it's probably time for fans to refresh their memories about last season. And sure, you have plenty of time to mainline Season 3, but for those who want the super-fast TL;DR version, we suggest this emoji recap.
Set to the HBO show's theme, the clip doesn't hit on every highlight of last season, but it does touch on Jon Snow's love affair with Ygritte, as well as Daenerys Targaryen and her army of Unsullied and (of course) the Red Wedding. This isn't the first emoji recap by Cara Rose DeFabio—she also did "Melroji Place" last year, though this one really intensifies our desire for emoji sigils. (Full disclosure: DeFabio is a friend of this reporter.)

Minister Kaine Oklahoma City The report about ACM Records was simply a misunderstanding. I am retracting the entire statement. I pray ACM Records and you all forgive me for not letting the proper channels do their due diligence. The album "Gone yet still breathing" by myself Minister Kaine has been licensed by MTV and several shows threw out the network with ACM Records at the helm. I will say if it was not for Mr Alan Cohen and Mrs Eve Adams none of that would have been made available to myself. If you want a good start be patient and trust the feeling. I pray that you all can forgive me. Hope we can do more projects in the future. Signed Antonio McGlothin Stage Name Minister Kaine

Hi, and welcome to tech talk.
So, why couldn't you have seeded the random numbers with a known value so that the testers could have stored the seed value with any bug report?
"Yeah, but they have to get a bug to happen a certain number of times before they can say that it's really a bug. That won't work if they're just replaying previous calculations."
So, let me get this strait. QA complained that since the mission generator wasn't deterministic, they couldn't repeat any seen bug; however, once the generator was deterministic, they complained that they would be seeing the exact same bug (which is the definition of repeatability). Did I miss something?
Man, if you could just shrug that off, you're a better man than I. The thing is, it's not the lost work that would have pissed me off the most.
First off, I have a serious problem with QA having that kind of pull over the design of a game. Their place is to test what is given to them in accordance to what the development team needs, not to dictate what they will and won't test. QA is not a part of the core development team, and only under extreme circumstances should they have any direct say in how a game is designed.
And second, what kind of lead programmer would allow one man-month of work to be wasted on a feature that he should have known, by his own admission, couldn't be shipped with the game (an assumption I don't agree with)? Besides, being a lead, he should have had the experience to know that you can reasonably test randomly generated content, and he sure as hell should have stood up for one of his programmers when the QA lead started pushing his weight around. And covering his head on his desk? That sounds like a sign of a good leader. I think I read that in Sun Tzu somewhere.
Yeah, right after I wrote that, I thought that I might have been a little hard on him. After all, I don't know anything about him other than what you've written here. I almost deleted that last paragraph, but I talked myself out of it for one reason.
You see, I have a real problem with leads who essentially become yes-men to anyone asking (or telling) them just about anything. That seems to be par for the course at a lot of companies in this industry, and usually it's the guys busting their butts under the leads that suffer. This situation here really struck me as an obvious example of this.
Ah yes, cynical. A personality trait I can relate to.
You know, I still stand by my opinion that there are way too many leads in this industry who are more concerned with avoiding conflict rather than doing what's best for their team; however, upon further reflection, I don't think this guy is one of them. The perfect one word rebuttal to everything I've written about him so far would be: politics.
And Brand's right, I'm not mean. Insightful? Perhaps. Opinionated? Definitely. Cuddly bear? Well, that's just disturbing. Also, I don't think I had anything to do with the formation of the Republic of Cuba, but things are a little fuzzy up until I was about five or so, so maybe.

Just a Side Note
Something I just want you all to keep in mind; this stuff may not seem heart racing, goose bump making to read about but put yourself in my shoes. There have been times I have been writing this and I freak myself out, not because what I'm writing or even how I'm writing is scaring me its remembering the incidents.
Let me put it into words you might be able understand, maybe not. I'm not trying to be rude or call you 'dumb' it's simply a hard thing to grasp. I love novels for the fact they normally draw you in and make you feel like you are there, this however is obviously not a novel. I am simply telling you my story and even the littlest of things can be scary. It is scary because as I always say THIS IS MY HOME. I have no where else to go, and because there is no serious threat of danger it's something me and my father see rather silly to move out over. Just try to imagine for a second you are coming home from work or school and someone says, 'Someone is in your house. They are very well hidden so it is next to impossible unless you really put your heart into it and even then its dangerous because you are just pissing this person off more possibly. You may not be able to seem them but they most certainly can see you at all times. Here and there when you least expect it they are going to do something to mess with you. That can be them just making noise, or touching you, or moving things, or even turning taps on and off. You will never see them do this but they are always there. Waiting to strike." I don't know about you guys but I wouldn't want to go home nor would I get a good night sleep with that in mind.

Celebrating the 80th anniversary of the incorporation of the city of Nobeoka in Miyazaki prefecture, the 51st Nobeoka Nishi Nippon Marathon pre-race banquet took place Feb. 9 at an area hotel. Including athletes and organizers, 300 people attended the banquet to share their hopes for a successful race.
After the introduction of the 23 invited athletes, TV Miyazaki's Michinori Watanabe spoke on behalf of the organizing committe, telling the athletes, "I'm sure that you are all aware of Nobeoka's long history as a race where many of our best athletes get their start. I hope that each of you running tomorrow will be doing it with the intent of making your own name." Mayor Masaharu Sudo commented, "This year's race commemorates Nobeoka's 80th year as a city, but most of you are probably more interested in this being the marathon's 51st running. Nobeoka is Japan's Athlete Town and the marathon is our flagship event. I hope to see the best race that we've had so far."
Including invited athletes over 400 people are entered. The field includes 2012 national 5000 m champion Kazuya Deguchi (Team Asahi Kasei) in his marathon debut, 2012 Ohtawara Marathon winner Ryoichi Matsuo (Team Asahi Kasei) and, with a 2:10:51 best the fastest man in the field, 2010 Asian Games silver medalist Yukihiro Kitaoka (Team NTN). As the race unfolds it should be a tough and thrilling battle for the win up front.
The Nobeoka Nishi Nippon Marathon begins at 12:05 p.m. on Sunday the 10th in front of Nobeoka City Hall and will be broadcast live in Kyushu on TV Miyazaki and nationwide on Fuji BS.

A Scarecrow's Obsession
Disclaimer: I own absolutely nothing. Not the Batman comics or movies. I don't own Scarecrow or Joker or Riddler. Nothing. I'm also earning absolutely nothing. My payment comes in the form of reviews-the opinions of others.
I suppose I do own my OC's. That's something, but not a whole hell of a lot in the big picture.
Summary: Dr. Jonathan Crane has targeted a new victim, but the night he's suppose to kidnap the victim, a young woman and her daughter get in the way. Jaclyn, though blissfully ignorant at the time, becomes an undeniable obsession to one of the craziest men in Gotham.
A/N: First of all, this story is based off a very twisted, disturbing dream I had. Most of my dreams are disturbing. Second, these chapters are going to be short and sweet. My goal is to not let them exceed 1000 words, but that might just be impossible. And Third, I'm currently having issues with my laptop, so don't expect scheduled updates. There's a process I have to go through with each chapter and it sometimes takes a while to complete.
And here we go…
Chapter 1: Downhill - Jackie
"I hate this fucking hill!" I snarled under my breath as I pushed myself to keep climbing. I shivered against the cold, wrapping my ridiculously thin shawl tighter around my shoulders. I gasped, wincing as the freezing night air constricted my aching lungs. My bare feet stung painfully, slowly going numb on the ice-cold concrete sidewalk.
I stopped to take a breather halfway up the steep hill, tears of frustration streaking down my numb cheeks. My whole body trembled violently as the winter breeze swept around me, enveloping my bare legs beneath my torn evening gown.
Another date, another disaster.
Sam Holiday had seemed so promising when he'd asked me out for dinner two days ago. I'd actually found myself looking forward to the evening. But twenty minutes in, I'd unthinkingly mentioned Lavender. Sam had grown awkward and distant after I'd explained to him about my daughter. An argument had arisen and anger had ensued.
Throw in the clumsy waiter and the rogue puppy and we had a nice catastrophe on our hands. Naturally, my curse of endless bad luck had ensured I got the worst of it. And to top it all off, Mr. Holiday had disappeared, forcing me to take the subway across the city and walk the remaining three blocks in a torn evening gown and three-inch heels.
Okay, I'd taken the heels off a long time ago. I knew it would have been a burning hell if I hadn't.
I pushed away from the brick wall I'd slumped against, setting off once again up the hill. Twenty minutes later, I was exiting the apartment building standing at the top of the retched hill, slowly backtracking to the apartment building at the bottom. This time I had my three-year-old daughter perched on my hip.
Annie, the old woman who was always kind enough to baby-sit Lavender when I needed her to, had given me an old pair of thick, woolen socks to warm my feet and calves on my short trip home. She'd gone wild when she'd seen me and had tried giving me clothes and shoes. I'd accepted the old pair of socks, claiming I needed no more.
"Mommy, how was the date?" the sleepy girl mumbled into my shoulder.
Sigh. "It was fine, sweetie. Go on ahead and sleep."
She mumbled something into my shoulder, but I couldn't understand it. A second later, she was asleep.
Now that I had Lavender in my arms, my senses were heightened. In Gotham, you always have to be on full alert, especially at night. After becoming a mother, my senses seemed to triple. The mother in me instinctively protected her child.
With Lavender win my arms, I became aware that the seemingly empty street wasn't actually empty. I could feel it in the air, almost taste it. There was something in the shadows, watching me, making the hair on the back of my neck stand on end.
I climbed the steps to my apartment building, shifting Lavender in my arms to unlock the door with the key I'd fished out of my purse back at Annie's.
I glanced both ways before I opened the door, taking in the empty street. No one.
That night, I triple checked my windows and door to make sure they were locked. I even had Lavender sleep in my bed, tucked safely under the covers by my side. I didn't get much sleep.
A/N: This first chapter kind of sucks, in my opinion. I'm not very happy with it, but it was needed. The next chapter will be all about Scarecrow! Yay!

Name: Razor
Pronunciation: ray-zor
Race: Kaldi
Physical Description: (Will update)
Background: Razor was born an orphan. His mother died giving birth to him, and his father before that due to a virus. As a baby he was raised by his mother's sister, Sheila Romain, a mercenary who was known as one of the first officers of The Guild. Their main place of residence was on Haalm. Here, Razor took a sharp interest in his aunts work. At age 3 He would sneak into her office and open confidential case files, analyzing the information, and formulating conclusions. It was then that he expressed his interest in military affairs. Romain, determined to let Razor find his own path, supplied him with the tools necessary to do so. Razor wasn't extremely proficient in Occultic Abilities as most Numetar weren't, however despite this, she schooled Razor in all the Occultic Categories. With this, Razor became able to analyze weaknesses and develop counters for any situation. It wasn't until age 7 that he revealed that he snuck into her office. She was on a case, and Razor saw distress in her face. As a result he offered his hypothesis. Romain was furious, and quite shocked at the fact. This was the first time Razor asked to join The Guild. Despite his early brilliance, Romain had to decline, as she wouldn't risk his life, and she believed he was still too young to see some of the things The Guild handled. Razor protested profusely, however in the end to no avail. Romain believed that he was too untrained for such an arduos lifestyle.
It was at this point that Romain decided that Razor could begin more advanced training, however in order to recieve it, he would have to no longer be home schooled. Razor jumped at the opportunity. She trained him with firearms, and extreme high pressure situations. Since Razor had no outstanding abilities himself, she showed him tools, tips, and tricks to help in any situation against any opponent. Razor became a master of breaking his opponent down. At age 16 Romain finally allowed Razor to join The Guild. He passed the preliminary exams with perfect results, and trained in the Prime Training Core. It was here that he made rivals out of Mel Billux as well as Sarah Viluksy. He managed to edge out both of his competitors in every activity, despite their strong Occultic Ability. Whether it was sparring, information gathering, or simulations, Razor was prepared for every situation. He graduated 6 months later at the top of his class. As a last test for their placement, graduates were required to do a placement mission. The mission was tense, and during the mission, he saved the life of Sarah from a critical mistake The Guild made during briefing. It was around this time that Romain began to branch off from The Guild. Though she remained an associate, she no longer followed anyone's orders from The Guild. Razor followed suit. Upon completion of the placement mission, he was recommended to become Elziir however, declined and attempted to make himself a mercenary who took contracts from The Guild. The Guild protested, as he did not have the rank that Romain did, and thus was not proven outside the simulations. It was declared that he would not be able to work by himself and was required to have at least one person with a similar rank to take on his tasks with him under Guild Law. Sarah, who was practically a rebel to authority, took the opportunity to join with Razor, stating that Razor was one of the only people she would work well with, and that she was grateful for him saving her life. Thus began the partnership of Razor and Sarah. Razor couldn't be his own mercenary, however since Romain handpicked her team from volunteers, The Guild had no quarrels with stopping him from joining Romain's Branch, codenamed Shadow. The branch consisted of 6 people, and was responsible for dealing with extremely high profile targets, generally in tight situations with extremely short windows of opportunity. The targets they tracked were renowned, feared, and unknown, and generally left little to no trace by killing off anyone who might posses any information. Razor and Sarah worked together on every mission, and were successful through 26 cases. Through this time, they were tested time and time again, physically and mentally. This created a strong bond between them. On their 23rd case, Sarah came close to the end of her life due to a bold move made by an international criminal. Razor barely managed to save her, and it was then that they realized their love for each other. From that moment, began the actual relationship between the two. The story picks up with Razor on his 27th case, currently tracking Chaos.

This time next year the Francis Crick Institute will overshadow St Pancras, a vast new building, gradually filling with more than a thousand of the greatest scientific brains in the world. The electricity alone in the building could power a town of 10,000 people. The vision of its director, the Nobel Prize-winner Sir Paul Nurse, is a centre of discovery, a place where physicists, mathematicians, biologists and chemists will work alongside each other to advance humanity. Imperial College, University College London and King's will join forces with Oxford and Cambridge in a sphere of intellectual firepower. Cancer Research will fund more than 30 per cent of the work. Scientists across continents are already applying to work there.
What threatens the influx of talent to the biggest biomedical research centre in the world is the anti-immigration language of the Government. Sir Paul says: "We need to be able to attract from abroad. The anti-foreigner rhetoric is putting people off applying. If the rhetoric is that foreigners are bad and that we are not open for business, people won't bother looking at us."
"The danger is Ukip pushing Tories to the Right. If you talk to the leadership they understand but they constantly have their eye on the Ukip threat. Focusing on this negative rhetoric is damaging the United Kingdom.
"It is certainly damaging the kind of research I am putting together. If you go to India researchers read about what is going on here and and say: 'We will go to the US or Germany'."
Nurse says London must embrace the brightest and the best around the globe. "My cunning plan is they arrive single, fall in love and stay in the UK." The Francis Crick Institute should be more than a centre for scientific research. It must double up as a marriage bureau. Its director suggests monthly parties with invitations extended to lawyers, bankers and artists. The scientist who won the Nobel Prize for his discovery about the behaviour of cells wants to enhance the DNA of London.
Apart from the political language, he sees no obstacles to London being the world capital for scientific research. "London is expensive but it is enormously attractive." When he taught in New York, students spoke enthusiastically of working in Europe and London was at the top of their list.
Nurse, 65, is Britain's pre-eminent scientist but he is not grand. He pitches up to our interview on a number 9 bus. He is from a working-class family and was turned down by Oxford and Cambridge because he had not got a foreign language O-level.
He is a geneticist with a family secret straight out of a Victorian novel. Sir Paul's parents were elderly and his sister was 17 when he was born. When he was working in New York seven years ago, he applied for a green card but was turned down because of a flawed birth certificate. The name of his mother on the certificate was that of the woman he called his sister.
His entire family relations had to be reconfigured. It turned out that his mother's pregnancy had been covered up by her parents. She went on to marry and have further children but never let on to them or to her husband about her first-born. Nurse realised that his brothers were in fact his uncles. Nephews and nieces were half siblings. His parents were his grandparents.
When a New York doctor inquired whether Nurse had any genetic conditions, after he visited him with a stomach complaint, the scientist did not know where to begin. The doctor asked whether he was in therapy. Nurse says he was not much affected by the discovery, although he regards it as a tragedy for his mother, who was never able to reveal herself to her son and who died before the riddle was solved.
Nurse is a man of intense curiosity and an equable temperament. The first time I met him, at the Crick Institute, he was in a hard hat and high-vis jacket and it took me a while to realise that he was not the foreman. Something about the brightness of his eyes — and his ability to grasp the full implications of stem cell research — give the game away.
There is even modesty to his area of research. He recounts wryly that his eureka discovery attracted little media interest because it involved yeast. He revealed the control mechanism that divides cells. What was true in yeast was true of humans. The cell division process is the basis for growth and reproduction and it sheds light on cancer, which occurs when cells are out of control.
Hiding your light under a bushel is ideal for scientific research. Nurse notes that the media wants big, instant discoveries and cures but this is not the nature of advance. Progress is tentative, and predictions needs to be repeatedly tested. "I know people love to think of the next thing over the horizon but they nearly always get it wrong," he says. For example, nobody has a clue about Ebola. "Some science is solid but whether Ebola turns out to be an epidemic, we don't know. We are predicting on things that are tentative."
Undeterred by his warnings of ignorance, I ask whether he thinks human scientists will be replaced by artificial intelligence. Will Nobel Prize-winners one day be the servants of robots? "Will the next discovery come from a robot?" he asks, amused. "Not yet, not for a couple of hundred years anyway."
For now, there is plenty for science to be getting on with. The brain has yet to be properly understood. At the Crick, neurology will be accompanied by research into cancer, degenerative diseases and infections. However, the infectious agent to counter Ebola will be kept off site. "To keep everyone happy," explains Nurse. The first director of the Crick Institute vows that research will be pure, disinterested and without boundaries. Won't he rub against ethical issues? Helping humankind sounds benign, genetically improving it could become sinister.

Using our recently developed method we analyze the radiative heat transfer in micron-thick multilayer stacks of metamaterials with hyperbolic dispersion. The metamaterials are especially designed for prospective thermophotovoltaic systems. We show that the huge transfer of near-infrared thermal radiation across micron layers of metamaterials is achievable and can be optimized. We suggest an approach to the optimal design of such metamaterials taking into account high temperatures of the emitting medium and the heating of the photovoltaic medium by the low-frequency part of the radiation spectrum. We show that both huge values and frequency selectivity are achievable for the radiative heat transfer in hyperbolic multilayer stacks.

These guys spent a lot of time with the Mets – and Piazza. Both confirm Mets beat writers and veteran baseball scribes in general suspect Piazza's name may be on that dubious decade-old unpublished list of 104 players who failed the MLB steroids test. In his 2009 book The Rocket that Fell to Earth, Jeff Pearlman suggests Piazza used performance-enhancing drugs: According to several sources, when the subject of performance enhancing was broached with reporters he especially trusted, Piazza fessed up.

Another suspender guy here. Holds up my Ruger P95 with no problems. wifebeater---suspenders and gun and extra mag---tshirt---no problems.
I use a Galco Summer Comfort IWB holster most of the time to carry my Kimber 1911, and it conceals well on the bike with my normal leather jacket or vest or button up shirt in warmer weather. I also have an OWB holster, but it doesn't conceal nearly as well with the jacket. However, I bought a Miami Classic II shoulder rig a few months ago, and I also like it a lot. It conceals very well with just about anything but just a T-shirt--which won't work! Bad thing is, it's also the most expensive holster I own, so you need to be pretty sure you are going to like one before you buy it! Just my .02. Ride safe.

Good point wth the shoulder holster - I've never tried one on, let alone tried carrying with one. I didn't think I would but I'm leaning hard toward an IWB. Lot of people like the Old Faithful holsters and the level 3 kit is a sweet deal. Get me some 'spenders, pair em with my 5.11 Operator.

The always-reputable TMZ.com is reporting that a spokesperson for Sharpton's National Action Network (who helped organized the recent anti-bad language protests) has responded to rapper David Banner's (real name: Levell Crump) expletive-laden rant about Sharpton with some bad language of her own. The spokesperson, Kristen John-Foy, apparently referring to Banner's invitation for Sharpton to "suck [his] d***," released this statement:
From time to time we do encounter people that have sexual fantasies about Reverend Al Sharpton, but they are always women and Crump's proposition is a first. I am sure Rev. Sharpton would not call Crump the "N" "B" or "H" word. And, despite Crump's personal request, I am sure Reverend Sharpton would not call him a f*****. He would just pray for him. We at NAN are pro civil rights for everyone, even Levell Crump who has not had a banner year since his debut album in 2003.
TMZ says another spokesperson confirmed the statement was sent from Sharpton's office, but also seemed to distance the Reverend from the comment, saying he would "never" respond directly to attacks like Banner's. Well, somebody in your office did, and used the "F" word, with a cute, Ann Coulter-style "I'm not saying this word right here that I'm saying" trick, so they don't get in trouble. Awesome! Keep up the good work, National Action Network!

As I previously covered here on the Riff, Al Sharpton recently organized protests against foul and violent language in hip-hop, demanding the withdrawal of government-run pension funds from record labels who don't comply. Now artists are speaking out against Sharpton. Web site SOHH.com reports that both critically-acclaimed MC Talib Kweli and hit producer and rapper David Banner (above) have criticized Sharpton, each in their own way. Kweli was firm but thoughtful, saying "I'm an artist and I'm gonna say what I want to say," but also giving respect to, well, Oprah:
I do think that people like Al Sharpton and Oprah and Russell Simmons are our vanguards and our elders and that we should respect them
They have been here representing for us since before even hip-hop was here. What they say is important and it's relevant but I think we need our own leadership so that we can respectfully disagree and say 'I hear you uncle Russell, I hear you Al Sharpton' and be respectful about it. But we can't cow tow (sic!!!!) to them either.
I'm going to hope it was SOHH and not Kweli who made that unfortunate bovine slip-up there. Anyway, on to Banner: his brilliant, minimalist 2005 hit "Play" may be the filthiest song ever recorded, one of a few hip-hop tracks ("My Neck, My Back," anyone?) whose "radio edits" basically required complete re-writes. He was naturally more colorful in his response:
The next time you see Al Sharpton, tell him I said @#*$ him and he can suck my @#*$
I might change the name of my album from The Greatest Story Never Told to @#*$ Al Sharpton. I hate Al Sharpton. This is the kind of @#!* that I'm talking about. They're killing kids in New Jersey and all across the country and all a @#*$% got to talk about is rap lyrics?
He's [Sharpton] a permed-out pimp. Him and Jesse Jackson are out here charging people to do rallies with them
@#*$%s talk a good game about we need to clean up the hood and the lyrics and all that. But I'm out here doing it.
By "doing it," Banner may be referring to his sponsorship of a neighborhood children's program's annual Six Flags trip (pointed out by This Recording) or being honored by the National Black Caucus of the Mississippi state legislature after his work for victims of Hurricane Katrina. But, one wonders if perhaps pulling back on the expletives might have been a good idea just this once.
By the way, to all you commenters who think any reference to sexuality in hip-hop music is "sexist," go give "My Neck, My Back" a listen.

Everybody's favorite happy-go-lucky UK boy band has delayed the release of their seventh album until 2008, reports NME. Radiohead have not released an album since 2003's Hail to the Thief. The band have been working on new material (including a recent stint in the studio in New York), but apparently forgot they left their label EMI after Thief and, gee, it's kind of hard to release an album without a label. Actually, no, they didn't forget, they just stopped caring:
Radiohead's management dismissed speculation over recent months that Warner Music was poised to secure the band's signature. "The band [is] not looking for a record company in any way, shape or form," the representative says. "They are out of a contract, but they're not actively looking for another one. They're getting on with doing what they do."
Which is, I guess, make music nobody can hear, except in tiny little clips on a confusing website that has a tendency to lock up your computer. (Seriously.) Please, guys, we know you're annoyed with the Industry. We're all annoyed with the Industry. But that's all the more reason to speed your cathartic tunes to us! Malaise! Besides, the world might end before 2008!! Isn't that what Kid A is about?!

When you think about it, "Sesame Street" was pretty hip, with its parade of guest stars and wacky Yip Yip puppets, but ever since they brought Snuffie out of the closet it seems like it's gone downhill. Nowadays, the musically-discerning parent doesn't have a lot of options for cool children's programming. Enter "Yo Gabba Gabba!" which will make its debut on Nickelodeon August 20th. The first show features performances from indie-rockers The Shins and rapper Biz Markie. The show's creator is in fact M.C. Bat Commander of the Aquabats (a.k.a. Christian Jacobs) who became interested in kids' TV after becoming a parent himself. Future shows are slated to include guests like Shiny Toy Guns, Mark Mothersbaugh of Devo, Supernova, and Rahzel. Mostly, though, I just love the crazy striped green unibrow monster.
The Times has a nice feature on the show, and Rock Sellout has some videos and mp3s, including a link to the Shins performance, and this track, "Party In My Tummy," which may be my new favorite song.

Yesterday's Times explores the phenomenon of cell phones being taken to concerts, or, um, just having a cell phone and then later going to a concert, I'm not exactly sure. According to the article, people can record videos of performers falling down, or pay money to enter contests. For instance, audiences at recent Gwen Stefani concerts were apparently quite eager to spend 99 cents to give their phone number to the record company in exhange for the possibility of better seats, and Korn fans could vote on the last song of the show--for $1.99. Hooray?
The article's attention to moneymaking contests ignores the two ways cell phone proliferation has affected my concert-going experience: first, at Coachella, you can sign up (for free!) to receive text message updates on band set times or delays, which can actually prove invaluable; and second, madly texting "whr r u?!?!" 2000 times until knocking heads with the person I'm looking for, both of us staring down at our pretty glowing screens.

who graces the cover of Rolling Stone this week? None other than baby-faced Zac Efron. In the photo, not only is the 19-year-old Disney star taking off his shirt, but it could also be argued that he's bashfully rubbing his man boob. The picture surely brings squeals of delight to millions of teeny-boppers, and just as equally brings nothing but a big shudder to the rest of us. Efron's most famous roles are as a singing and dancing high school hunk in High School Musical and the movie version of Hairspray. The roles are innocent but the press he's getting is anything but.
And if that doesn't bother you, how about an almost-nude shot of our favorite wizard boy? *Shudders.
But really aren't we just treating young male celebrities the way we've always treated female celebrities—with birthday countdowns, suggestive magazine covers, and sexy interview questions? Is this objectification or just a really great break for these young chaps? Either way, we can be sure Daniel Radcliffe doesn't mind.

Now you can finally hear what I've been blabbering about this whole time. Check out M.I.A.'s MySpace page where all 12 tracks from her about-to-be-released sophomore album Kala are available for your streaming pleasure. Hey look: Robert Christgau says "Kala strikes deep," 4.5 out of 5 stars. You don't want to mess with Christgau. Anyway, you can spend money on Kala next Tuesday. Predictions for where it'll chart? Considering Arular never made it past #190 on the Billboard album charts, I'll say Kala will debut at... #39.
Update, 8/16: I've read the Christgau review a couple times now and I'd just like to point out how brilliant it is. Please check it out. He uncovers a few insights that are absolutely true and totally fascinating: 1) the fact that the full-album collaboration with Timbaland didn't come to pass is probably due not only to the visa troubles but also to M.I.A. realizing that she didn't want to become Nelly Furtado; 2) the album, therefore, is less accessible, an uncompromising, jagged "art record," and 3) it recalls nothing so much as The Clash, whose aggression, multicultural influences, political expression, and DIY aesthetic combined with great songwriting skills to create a couple masterpieces. That could all be describing M.I.A., and when you think about it, this is totally the record the Clash would be making if they were making records today. Look at Big Audio Dynamite! Dude is 65 years old figuring out this s***. I bow down.

Flying Cars Are The Future
The future is officially with us. Forget satnavs, or personal robots, or even 3D printers. The lodestone of futurism is, and always has been, the flying car. Well it is almost upon us.
Our Driver's Seat blog has a short post on Terrafugia, Inc., the Woburn, Mass., company developing a flying car or "roadable aircraft" called the Transition being granted special permission to use different tires and an aircraft like windshield.
The company says laminated safety glass used on cars for decades would add too much weight and could fracture in a way that would obscure the pilot's view through the windshield. Lightweight polycarbonate windshields used in aircraft are designed in part to withstand impacts with birds, which are generally more of a hazard to pilots than drivers.
Now, if like me, you were not familiar with this product, then do yourself a favor and follow the links back through all our reporting on this futuristic vehicle.
