A predator hunts the skies over Earth. Its intent is peaceful, and its mission is essential, but it is the deadliest machine humanity has ever created.
Piloted by a six-year-old girl, the godlike Skalm guards the Districts of TASC. Her family is long dead. Her adopted father is a synthetic copy of an alien, her nanny an artificial mind connected via subspace to every part of the globe, feeding the young girl information, finding prey to satiate her growing thirst.
But the young girl is an innocent, a victim, one of millions the war has already claimed. Her innocence has been sacrificed by a man with singular purpose: a man who will stop at nothing in order to prepare Earth for the coming conflict.
The armada is approaching, its far-off engines now bright as stars in the night sky. They mean to kill us. They have the power to do so. And as oblivion's maw opens up to engulf us, we brace ourselves for battle.
We will fight to the last. Live or die, we will leave a scar upon our attackers that will last an age, even if we ourselves do not.

"Fear it wouldn't end"
Definitely too long, lots of parts that became confusing too. I enjoyed the first two books but I couldn't wait for this book to end.
What a great listen! A fantastic story that twists and turns, bringing to life a struggle of epic proportions.
I fell behind in my work as I couldn't stop listening. When the end came, it was bitter sweet. I'm going to miss Banu, Berget Mini and the others whose characters and personalities touched my world.
Brilliant, just brilliant!
"Worth reading for the conclusion."
The first book in the trilogy was pretty good. Second book was good but heading in a bit of a strange direction. The third (this book) was the least good of the bunch. Worth it to find out the conclusion but... I was unsatisfied with the ending. This book is kind of like the frayed end of a rope rather than a definitive knot. Many lose, messy endings. It felt a bit rushed and lacking. But that said, the series as a whole is well worth reading. Well done on creating a page turner!
the imagery, prose and descriptions in this story is truly amazing. the author treks the story with such detail and brilliance that it truly inspires and rivets the listener to the story. the only part I did not like is that it came to an end. it exceeds expectations. truly sensational.
"Moments of greatness"
The narrator is excellent, and the story has moments of greatness, but it is not as good as the first 2 of the series.
"fear saga"
books 1 and 2 developed the story at a reasonable pace. book 3 was too rushed, i felt the ending was truncated to make it into 3 books. the last 5 chapters were disappointing...
"overdramatic at times, too many times perhaps"
interesting story line, plot not very credible
too many characters deserted after being fashioned into super heroes
"Fear the future trilogy"
I'm am a massive reader of sci fi books and have so enjoyed this trilogy... fantastic story.
"Worth sticking with it"
Found it a bit slow going in places and rushed on others, but glad I stuck with it. Some very nice plot twists and nice way to end the storyline. Would recommend it to any fan of the previous books.
"This makes me question Audible"
I really can't add much that the other detailed reviews has already covered. This installment was a jumbled mess that read more like a first draft outline than a finished work. The first two books were great and it made the third book that much more disappointing. But this book is getting a 4.5 star average review while most of the active reviewers are mostly negative. That makes me question Audibles star review system. Most of the people that read this book and were into this series would have acknowledged this poor offering by Moss. It makes me think that Audible is infested by bots that give good reviews to keep poor books viable to potential readers. Nobody new to the series is going to start the first book if they see that the series drops off at the end. So to sell the series they prop up a bad book.
"What a colossal waste of time Mr Moss!"
Disclaimer: I loved the first two books. LOVED THEM! At some point between book two and three Stephen Moss lost his mind.
Spoilers ahead, you've been warned.
1. Protagonist Rules - Stephen, you had an excellent protagonist. You took an everyman and threw him into extraordinary circumstances. He excelled and became the hero in book two. You placed him on a pedestal for everyone to worship as the protagonist we needed to carry the story forward. Then you started slowly chipping away at his armor in book two. But that's ok, we need our protagonist to have flaws and we need to see him fall and earn redemption. But instead of allowing the audience to revel in his fall and triumph you decided to make him into a modern day Josef Mengele. What the heck? How can you destroy your protagonist like that and expect anyone to feel fulfilled by this story? You had an excellent scapegoat in Ayala and a character that I imagine most readers would not have minded losing. Why was she not written to be the mastermind behind the vivisection of the Korean children? Why did you destroy Neal? It's one thing to kill a protagonist, but you destroyed him. This is unforgivable.
Furthermore, you toyed with your readers by bringing Neal back into the story when he was asked to give his opinion on the deep space images from his prison. Then you just left him there...you left him there with no conclusion except for two sentences in the end of the book. How can you take such a strong character and reduce him to nothingness? I found myself cursing you at the conclusion....not good for your future readership.
2. Mobiliei Exposition
I don't care about the Mobiliei. You spent two books building up human characters. In the last book you decide to introduce us to the opposition. But instead of giving us a few chapters of character development you go on ad nauseam about their sexual preferences and meaningless interpersonal quirks. Nobody cares about their personal lives unless they serve to link us to the main story. You could have spent a third of the time developing their characters (or no time at all) and the story would be no worse for it.
3. Character Overload
In the first two books you had a sum total of about 15 main characters (it's a rough estimate as I don't have time to go back and count.) You spent a lot of time developing these characters and suddenly in book two you introduce an entirely new lot of people, many of which are not even given proper introductions. We're just supposed to accept these people at face value without any knowledge of their motivations or morality. You bounce back and forth between these characters as as a reader I completely lose focus and start to drift away from the story. Much of this fault lies with the Mobiliei chapters which are, as I already mentioned, a complete waste of time.
4. Deus Ex Machina
Stephen, I really really really loved your first two books. It cannot be overstated how much your story enthralled me and kept me coming back for more every day. But the last few chapters of book three felt as if you took those books and slapped me in the face. What were you thinking? Until now I was able to suspend disbelief. Body transplants, check. Brains in a jar, check. Creating an inter-dimensional god-like Birgit? What the heck man? This is the worst kind of Deus Ex Machina I have ever seen. I kept hoping that Birgit was attempting to access the core of the IST to enable some doomsday weapon that would empower our fleets to become invincible or some such nonsense. But instead we're left with something that makes me think Stephen was late for a dinner party and had to turn in the book that evening. Why oh why could you not sacrifice some of the ridiculous amount of Mobiliei exposition and give us a somewhat plausible finale instead? I want to give you the benefit of the doubt here. Did you have a personal struggle while writing this book? Did you lose someone close to you? Were you kidnapped and forced to finish the book under threat of death? Are the Mobiliei real and did they force you to substitute this fake finale for the real one? Maybe they were afraid you would give away their weaknesses in your real final chapters? I hope that's it because I would rather think you were under duress when writing those chapters than to think that you just gave up.
"Mixed Feelings"
This is a difficult review to write; partially because I have been such a fan of the series and partially because I have very mixed feelings about this final installment. I am not necessarily disappointed, but I'm also not as happy with what 'could have been'.
I am acutely aware that there is difficulty in succinctly and comprehensively tying up every loose end in a story as broadly sweeping as this. I'm not holding Moss to that standard. We need to be shown the scale of the struggle, of the coming forces, the preparations on earth. And, we are. To an extent. My issue is less with the build up (in fact I thought the build up was great) and more with the resolution.
***Potential Interpretive Spoilers Ahead***
I won't tell actual plot devices, but the way I have to discuss this to explain mandates the spoiler warning.
Essentially, we have this massive build up to a final conflict, something that is shocking in its brevity, and then a deus ex resolution that, while it was alluded to (I guess) was pretty bizarre in its execution. I'm just not sure it was a fitting end. I would have gladly listened to another 2 or 3 hours (or more, frankly), if it was filled with a bit more... cinematic quality. Yes, there were poignant moments. Yes, it was cool in its own right. And, actually, the battle itself was very likely exactly how something like that would play out (at least in this book's 'science'). That's part of the frustration- Moss didn't fail us, really. But it still feels like a bit of a let down.
Beyond the battle, actually everything felt *extremely* clipped and rushed. I don't know whether he got bored writing it or what... but the triumphant exuberance at the end of book II was completely gone in this installment. A lot of build up and then... poof. Done.
I didn't hate the book by any means. I thought it was very good overall. But it just had so much potential that seemed to get wasted. Certainly finish the trilogy if you have been listening so far and I still feel strongly that it is absolutely worthwhile. Maybe my expectations are unrealistic at this point- in fact I fully accept that likelihood.
Worth a credit and your time. A great trilogy and an acceptable ending that fell short of what could have been.
"Huge letdown"
The first book was good, the second book was average and the last book a huge letdown. Story goes off on weird tangents that never go anywhere. Main characters built up in the first two books become minor sidelines in the third. All the tension built up over all three books comes to a fizzling, anti-climatic ending.
"What happened there?"
I couldn't wait to hear how the author would wrap up this fine series and I had this finale preordered. Refreshing my email until about 3am it appeared! Without much sleep I went to work continuing to keep an ear bud secreted. Fantastic.... Until he sent my favorite character to an island for war crimes. I can't tell you how irritated that made me and how out of phase that was with the rest of the story. He was saving the world, the gloves are off. In order to keep the human race from extinction I'm thinking that leaving decisions to a tribunal representing the various countries around the globe would certainly abandon all hope for the survival of the human race. Especially when a group of A.I.s become the arbitrators, ugh. Perhaps I'm jaded but how could he do this to the man who was one, maybe the most important, character in the story? After the coo I lost my favorite character and I had to struggle to the finish. Please rewrite the outcome of the power struggle. I'm still aghast!!
"An OK end to an otherwise great trilogy."
One book has to be the worst of the 3. This one's it. Be warned, its painfully slow & hard to get through. The book can be edited from 20 hours to about 5 and still tell the same story - a lot of nothing happens. Also the author did not make me dislike the people who (I think) you are suppose to dislike by the end of the story. Their end seemed unfitting and I was actually still on their side... If you already read the first 2 than, of course, you have to read this... I found it a little disappointing; hopefully you like it better than I did.
"I enjoyed the series, but.."
I enjoyed the series, but this book just didn't flow right with me. can't put my finger on what it was that was off.
"Very. technical and hard ro follow."
Too technical and hard to follow. 1st 2 books were great but I was lost in third.
"Not as good as the books before it"
Okayish. But.
I always enjoy R C Bray's performances, and he didn't disappoint.
Sadly the last book wasn't as good as the first two. The ending and the process towards it isn't as well developed as the other books. In fact the ending was disappointing. For 2/3rds of the book you are wondering whether you are ever getting to the point, and then the actual reason you are there is rushed through in the last 1/3rd. Sad.
"Is this the same series?"
I would have stuck with the main characters, and on that note, I wouldn't have written them as completely different people with minor story lines. The focus of this just got terrible.
That voice... He ranks up there with Roy Dotrice for me.
Be upset
Books 1 & 2 are really great, I'm hopeful that book 4 will recover some of that lost focus.
"Starts well, disappointing end"
A must read if you've started the Fear saga. Finding out what happened to Earth and the characters was good. However the book went on and on about somewhat irrelevant scenes. The ending was also disappointing. Having built the armada's arrival for three whole books I was left feeling underwhelmed. That said, the book was performed well and all three books kept up my interest.
"Too many loose ends and not enough 'ending'....."
A little disapointed considering the first two book were actually very good indeed. The third book was the length of the first two combioned and really felt it. I found myself skipping whole chapters because the story continued to focus heavily on areas that didn't really add any value apart from padding the story out. I'm glad I did as the end was, as others have said, very anti-climactic.
I wont spoil it but there were whole chapters and many hours building up tech and characters only to find them simply unnecessary in the end. In fact one minor side story line ended up being the surprise big ending. There were simply too many loose ends from too many cul-de-sacs and the story... just ended. There was an attempt to wrap it all up but it and I felt empty and that I'd wasted a alot of time paying attention to detailed story lines and significant characters that ended up eitehr going nowhere, simply not being completed or just ignored.
However the whole series was worth the listen and I did enjoy the whole; just not the thrid book and ending.
"Wow.....but what to do now?"
Loved all three books.Great narration (RC Bray is a legend) and brilliant writing. Felt a real connection with the characters. The problem is (and it's the same after every good book) what do I read now?
R. C. Bray did a good reading. I'm not sure I'd try another Stephen Moss
The ending was just terrible. I thought of a better way you could have finished the story while listening, and I'm no author.
I honestly can't think of any.
The ending is truly terrible. Once again it felt like the author got tiered of writing the book and instead of taking the time to think up a plausible ending just went for the quickest one he could find. The earlier two books of the series were gripping. This one failed them!
"Worst part of the trilogy!"
Whilst the performance from R.C Bray was great the story dragged. I found myself listening purely because I didn't want to give up on a trilogy during the third book.
"A Must Read Trilogy"
Amazing narration brings these first class books to life. Wish there were more...buy and you won't be disappointed!
"Another great book"
These books are great, just the right balance between science and fiction. I would and will, recommend them to any sci-fi fan I can.
"Excellent finale!"
A great finish to a fantastic series. Really pleased that the additional short story was included as I had made an assumption that it happily crushed. The story felt a little long at times, just a tad too much for my scifi limits in places. Overall tho, this was great. R. C. Bray was as fantastic as always. Read or listen to these three books!!!!
"Instantly catapulted to my favorite sci-fi trilogy"
After book one, I wondered if the next two could live up to it. Oh my goodness!
"Truly Awesome!"
I could not put this trilogy down, it was gripping from start to finish and the narration spot on. If you love Sci Fi (Banks and Hamilton) you will love this!

Ford recently acquired a US patent that would enable their small-displacement engines to emit artificial noises; all in the hope of saving more fuel. This new tech produces an artificial noise to make the engine sound like it has more cylinders.
Due to the 'slow-revving' design of the 3-cylinder EcoBoost engine, Ford stated that drivers rev it higher than it should to sound louder and provide an audible cue for up-shifts. This method not only renders the tachometer rather useless, but also negates the EcoBoost's fuel-saving purpose because of the high revs that take in more fuel.
This led Ford to come up with a simple solution - to install a device in the engine that would make it sound like it revs higher at lower rpms. This device would produce artificial engine noise at a time period between 2 directly-successive ignition events. The noise would likewise make the engine sound as if it runs on 4 cylinders, instead of 3.
The device activates as soon as the driver turns on the engine. After measuring the engine's combustion speed, frequency, and cylinder firing order, an artificial noise is then produced.
Ford hopes that this device would encourage drivers to shift earlier or within lower rpms to save on fuel and to lessen engine stress.

Is Death Really the End?
Many of us regard death as a solemn ending to life, an either sudden or long-awaited finale that finishes our time on Earth for good. But does it have to be?
Various world cultures and religions both ancient and contemporary follow practices that consider death to be a continuation or another part of the life cycle, a natural and permanent rest for the body, and a time of freedom for the spirit or soul.
These beliefs are best reflected through the diverse approaches with which we treat the dead. Far from your average burial in a cemetery, these tools and techniques are fascinating ways that people choose to preserve their loved ones or lay them to rest; some of them even leave the potential for them to come back to life!
Which of these would YOU try?

No Rotisserie!
Hey Guys (and Gals!), I started a new thread for this question hoping to get some creative ideas! I am going to media blast the under carriage of my '65 Coupe (Mustang) then cover with SPI bed liner. I do not have an auto rotisserie, don't have access to one and don't want to buy one if I can get away with not having one! Any other options?
Thanks in advance!
An engine puller can be used to get the body up in the air to do this work, but all 4 wheels must remain on the car. You can only do half at a time. Be sure to chock up the body really good and be safe.
Thanks Andy, I've already pulled the rear and front off!
Check this out...pretty cool. cheap too!!!
2 great options, thank you!! Might even have to try the second one! Lol
scrounging time
I found some plans on the net, talked a buddy out of some free steel tubing someone gave him. and paid $ 50 for heavy castors and bolts. but I have enough space to store the stuff in racks along side the barn, guys bring me stuff, and sometimes show up saying I need a piece of ,,, I say go look in the racks.
And we have some obsolete farm machinery that I have plans for using some of the pieces.
I have used a blaster on the underside of my 78 Trans Am recently. I raised the car as high as possible on jack stands and duct taped tarps all along the rockers, bottom firewall, etc. In a few days I stripped the entire underside of my car.
If you don't mind laying on your back and getting a sore neck you can certainly do it.
This is what I built to put the chevelle on it's side. Total cost $40.00 and about an hour to cut and weld.
How did it get in that vertical position and then back down... details, details...:)
The body was sitting up on wood blocks. I bolted the arms on and my wife and I lifted the body on it's side. Rotated it back down the same way. No my wife is not OLGA it was fairly easy.
I have also seen someone who put wheels on the bottom of the arms so they could roll the body around in the garage on it's side.
proctor wall jacks
I have a set of Proctor wall jacks, used in construction to lift framed wall panels safely by myself. You can build an non adjustable one with some pipe and a come-a-long. Number one rule NEVER be in a position if somethings slips moves etc where you can get hurt, Up here on the farm we have a backhoe and forklift , at the shop where we spend the winter I have a roll around gantry crane, and rotiserrie, I built the pair for less that $100 out of pocket used recycled steel.
All I know is TAKE THIS STUFF SERIOUSLY! Make sure the legs on the base are VERY long and when messing with something like this that you don't put yourself in harms way while moving it into position.
I have twice in my life made VERY stupid mistakes that almost ended up with a car on me. The last one left me shaking for quite a while, DON'T think you have it all together when dealing with this sort of thing and don't feel you don't need to ask others opinions, call over your neighbor, your wife, someone to go over what you have planned.

The Locket and The Pain
I wore a low-ish cut shirt today. Thunder saw I was wearing the locket. He smirked when he noticed. I glowered, but didn't take it off.
"You like it then?"He asked.
"The locket."
"Yes. Thankyou."I said politley.
He left a note on my desk and walked off.
Meet me in the gardens. at your secret place; 10;00PM.
I stared at it, then put it in my pocket. I glanced at him, but he was busy doing his work.
The end of school bell went. I had heaps of homework due in for tomorrow. And heaps of presants to open. Mum and Dad sent me one. But Mum didn't sign the card. Moody cow! Dad said that he missed me loads and so does mum(yeah right!).
I had a presant from each of my friends.
Spark and Olli had got me a new notepad, it had marshmellows on the cover(picture, of course!). Lillie and Millie had got me a ying and yang pillow, Lillie signed ying and Millie signed yang. Shadow got me a poster that said on it; Rebel against the orders!, then had a picture of a kitten throwing a ball at a window! Faith got me a best friends bracelet, she had the 'friends half'. Toni send me a card in the post with £10 in. Hatch got me a blue aliceband(who knew he was so stylish?).Filla got me a IQ tester thingy.
So I did pretty good all in all, and oh, yeah, Dad got me laptop!!!!
I went to sleep for a bit and dreamed about fishes....hmmmmm.
BLEEEEEP! My alarm clock went of at half nine. I rubbed my eyes and got up, I was in my PJ's and I put on my Ugg Boots, and black coat and sneaked out.
I stalked through the garden and sneaked through the hole in the hedge.
"WHAT WAS THAT FOR?!"I roared. He smiled sheepishly.
"So?"I asked iricudiously.
"So what?"
"So, what did you want to meet me here for?"
"Ah. I'm so sorry about this! But it's the only way I....Sorry, it will all end soon...." He said, missing bits out.
"Thunder, wha--?"My question was cut off with a blood-curdling scream...MY scream, I fell to the floor,I felt like I'd been dropped into a pit of fire, being stung by nettles, beaten up and cut with a thousand knifes all at the same time. I knew the feeling all to well.
"STOP! PLEASE!!"I screamed.
He shook his head sadly. "It's the only way....Sorry."
"NO!!!PLEA--!"It stopped, I could feel no pain. I took in a shaky breath.
"I...."He stutterd. "Your f...f..face!"
I pulled my compact mirror out of my coat pocket, and sure enough...My face!
My eyes were a clear green as usual, but my skin was pale and peachy, my freckles, again, had turned golden. I stared at my newer, prettier face. I had the same feeling as last time. My body yearned for him. But my heart wanted to love him. My mind was telling me to love him. No part of me hated him anymore. But....How?
"Thunder?"I said in wonder.
His face broke out into a fabulas smile.
I threw my arms around his waist and his arms snaked around mine. I burried my self in his nice boy smell. I only came up to his shoulder. I AM tall for my age it's just Thunder is VERY tall for his age! I mean, I'm only 14!
I smiled and sighed; "Ilove you..." A wave of emotions washed over me. I knew I couldn't EVER say I hated him again, because that wasn't humanly possible anymore. This time, and I MEAN this time, we'd stay together forever!
We would Stay Connected.

Taken from the bottom of the marine food chain, microalgae may soon become a top-tier contender to combat global warming, as well as energy and food insecurity, according to a study by researchers associated with the Cornell Algal Biofuel Consortium, published in the journal Oceanography (December 2016).
"We may have stumbled onto the next green revolution," said Charles H. Greene, professor of earth and atmospheric sciences, and lead author of the new paper, "Marine Microalgae: Climate, Energy and Food Security From the Sea." The study presents an overview to the concept of large-scale industrial cultivation of marine microalgae, or ICMM for short.
ICMM could reduce fossil fuel use by supplying liquid hydrocarbon biofuels for the aviation and cargo shipping industries. The biomass of microalgae remaining after the lipids have been removed for biofuels can then be made into nutritious animal feeds or perhaps consumed by humans.
To make the biofuel, scientists harvest freshly grown microalgae, remove most of the water, and then extract the lipids for the fuel. The remaining defatted biomass is a protein-rich and highly nutritious byproduct – one that can be added to feeds for domesticated farm animals, like chickens and pigs, or aquacultured animals, like salmon and shrimp.
After consuming the algae-supplemented feeds, chickens produce eggs with three times the omega-3 fatty acids, according to previous Cornell research.
Growing enough algae to meet the current global liquid fuel demand would require an area of about 800,000 square miles, or slightly less than three times the size of Texas. At the same time, 2.4 billion tons of protein co-product would be generated, which is roughly 10 times the amount of soy protein produced globally each year.
Marine microalgae do not compete with terrestrial agriculture for arable land, nor does growing it require freshwater. Many arid, subtropical regions – such as Mexico, North Africa, the Middle East and Australia – would provide suitable locations for producing vast amounts of microalgae.
A commercial microalgae facility of about 2,500 acres would cost about $400 million to $500 million. Greene said: "That may seem like a lot of money, but integrated solutions to the world's greatest challenges will pay for themselves many times over during the remainder of this century. The costs of inaction are too steep to even contemplate."
Microalgae's potential is striking. "I think of algae as providing food security for the world," said Greene. "It will also provide our liquid fuels needs, not to mention its benefits in terms of land use. We can grow algae for food and fuels in only one-tenth to one one-hundredth the amount of land we currently use to grow food and energy crops.
"We can relieve the pressure to convert rainforests to palm plantations in Indonesia and soy plantations in Brazil," Greene said. "We got into this looking to produce fuels, and in the process, we found an integrated solution to so many of society's greatest challenges."

Cornell University biological engineers have deciphered the cellular strategy to make the biofuel ethanol, using an anaerobic microbe feeding on carbon monoxide – a common industrial waste gas.
"Instead of having the waste go to waste, you make it into something you want," said Ludmilla Aristilde, assistant professor in biological and environmental engineering. "In order to make the microbes do our work, we had to figure out how they work, their metabolism."
Aristilde collaborated with her colleague Lars Angenent, professor of biological and environmental engineering, on the project. She explained, "The Angenent group had taken a waste product and turned it into a useful product."
To make biofuel from inorganic, gaseous industrial rubbish, the researchers learned that the bacterium Clostridium ljungdahlii responds thermodynamically – rather than genetically – in the process of tuning favorable enzymatic reactions.
Synthetic gas – or syngas – fermentation is emerging as a key biotechnological solution, as industrial-sized operations are looking to produce ethanol from their gaseous waste streams, according to Angenent, a fellow at Cornell's Atkinson Center for a Sustainable Future. The scientists sought to grasp the physiological nature of the process: "These findings are important for the syngas fermentation community to design future strategies to improve production," Angenent said.
UCLA biochemists have devised a way to convert sugar into a variety of useful chemical compounds without using cells
UCLA biochemists have devised a clever way to make a variety of useful chemical compounds, which could lead to the production of biofuels and new pharmaceuticals.
"The idea of synthetic biology is to redesign cells so they will take sugar and run it through a series of chemical steps to convert it into a biofuel or a commodity chemical or a pharmaceutical," said James Bowie, a professor of chemistry and biochemistry in the UCLA College, and senior author of the new research. "However, that's extremely difficult to do. The cell protests. It will take the sugar and do other things with it that you don't want, like build cell walls, proteins and RNA molecules. The cell fights us the whole way."
As an alternative, Bowie and his research team have developed a promising approach he calls synthetic biochemistry that bypasses the need for cells.
"We want to do a particular set of chemical transformations — that's all we want — so we decided to throw away the cells and just build the biochemical steps in a flask," Bowie said. "We eliminate the annoying cell altogether."
The biochemists purified more than two dozen enzymes in particular combinations and concentrations, put them in a flask and added glucose. The enzymes and pathways, created in Bowie's laboratory, are not necessarily found in nature. "When we don't have to worry about keeping cells happy, it's easier to rearrange things the way we want," he said.

Biofuels pioneer Mascoma LLC and the Department of Energy's BioEnergy Science Center have developed a revolutionary strain of yeast that could help significantly accelerate the development of biofuels from nonfood plant matter.
The approach could provide a pathway to eventual expansion of biofuels production beyond the current output limited to ethanol derived from corn.
C5 FUEL™, engineered by researchers at Mascoma and BESC, features fermentation and ethanol yields that set a new standard for conversion of biomass sugars from pretreated corn stover—the non-edible portion of corn crops such as the stalk—converting up to 97 percent of the plant sugars into fuel.
Researchers announced that while conventional yeast leaves more than one-third of the biomass sugars unused in the form of xylose, Mascoma's C5 FUEL™ efficiently converts this xylose into ethanol, and it accomplishes this feat in less than 48 hours. The finding was presented today at the 31st International Fuel Ethanol Workshop in Minneapolis.
"The ability to partner the combined expertise at Mascoma and BESC in engineering microbes to release and convert sugars from lignocellulosic biomass has greatly accelerated the translation of basic research outcomes to a commercial product," BESC Director Paul Gilna said.
Gilna noted that this success and continued efforts through BESC could go a long way toward reducing the cost of ethanol and growing the number of commercial-level ethanol production plants. A key focus of BESC is to use basic research capabilities and expertise to validate the consolidated bioprocessing approach to improve cost competitiveness.
"Driving down the cost to develop, verify and consolidate bioprocessing was at the heart of the BESC effort when we began in 2007, and this achievement allows us to advance to the next challenge," Gilna said. "This accomplishment represents a clearly impactful example of how our partnering with industry can accelerate the translation of our research capabilities and findings into commercial products."
Although cellulosic biomass such as corn stover, wheat straw and bagasse (the fibrous remains after sugar is extracted from sugarcane or sorghum) is abundant and cheap, because of recalcitrance — a plant's resistance to releasing sugars for conversion to alcohol – it is much more difficult to utilize than corn. However, Mascoma's new strain of yeast, which is one of many strains Mascoma developed as part of BESC over the last two years, proved highly effective at xylose conversion.
While most processing methods simply convert cellulose to sugar, this new approach also converts hemicellulose, which significantly increases overall sugar yield and thereby increases the level of ethanol produced. In fact, the new strain of yeast simultaneously yields 97 percent conversion of xylose and glucose—and does so in a significantly shorter period of time than existing approaches.

Now scientists have a new technique that avoids the expensive enzymes
Producing second-generation biofuel from dead plant tissue is environmentally friendly — but it is also expensive because the process, as used today, needs expensive enzymes, and large companies dominate this market. Now scientists have a new technique that avoids the expensive enzymes. The production of second generation biofuels thus becomes cheaper, probably attracting many more producers and competition, and this may finally bring the price down.
The world's need for fuel will persist, also when Earth's deposits of fossil fuels run out. Bioethanol, which is made from the remains of plants after other parts have been used as food or other agricultural products, and therefore termed "second generation," is seen as a strong potential substitute candidate, and countries like the United States and Brazil are far ahead when it comes to producing bioethanol from plant parts like corn or sugar canes. Corn cubs and sugar canes are in fact plant parts that can also be used directly as food, so there is a great public resistance to accept producing this kind of bioethanol. A big challenge is therefore to become able to produce bioethanol from plant parts, which cannot be used for food.
"The goal is to produce bioethanol from cellulose. Cellulose is very difficult to break down, and therefore cannot directly be used as a food source. Cellulose is found everywhere in nature in rich quantities, for example in the stems of the corn plant. If we can produce bioethanol from the corn stems and keep the corn cubs for food, we have come a long way," says Per Morgen, professor at the Institute of Physics, Chemistry and Pharmacy, University of Southern Denmark.

Fix it the right way.
Corporate Advocacy Program™
This company operates under a couple names, PPC Tarmac, Fat Free Google (www.fatfreegoogle.com) and even Game Face Web Design. No matter the company name, the reality is that they lie and distort what other companies do in order to gain your business. They also try to play off that services that they include in their pricing are so valuable and that they don't have a large markup. Ha!! A quick look on their website www.fatfreegoogle.com shows that for every $100 a client pays for Google marketing, only $25 goes to PPC or click charges. They retain the rest! Wow. I don't know about you but 75% profit margin is pretty darn high!
The leader of these thieves and scam artists is Bram Moreinis. He concocts all the wild lies that he and his people tell potential clients and they even post some of these lies on their website. They are such scam artists, they don't even list where their office is located! It should be from a prison cell, as they are crooks and liars.
Stay away from these guys. There are many reputable companies who can help you market and don't need to lie about their competition in order to gain market share. Bram Moreinis and his people at PPC Tarmac, Game Face Web Design, and Fat Free Google should be avoided at all costs. Too bad I didn't know then what I know know or I would have saved myself a lot of money!

Questions on 36'' Heavy Duty Round Fire Pit Grate
Question: What is the distance between the outer 'legs' of the grate? Want to confirm the feet will sit properly in my fire pit.
Question: Do you have any pics of how it sits on top?
Answer: At this moment we do not have any pictures of how the fire pit sits on top. Hopefully we should have some soon!
Thank you,
Titan Support.
Question: Is there any reason this 36" steel grate cannot be used to support a approx. 600 lb. stone to be used for a garden fountain?
The grate would support the stone and under the grate would be the water basin and pump.
Answer: This item was not made for this purpose so we are not sure of these specifications. If you want to give a try, you are more than welcome to but it will probably void the warranty.
-Kaila Holt
Question: Does this fit INSIDE of the 36" Ring or does the Ring sit ON TOP of the grate?
Answer: It would actually sit more on top than inside that ring. If you have any further questions, don't hesitate to ask!

The word came around noon that day,
With the sirens singing highly.
She got up and ran,
As fast as she could.
Tense feelings opening in her chest.
Her Daddy was down in those mines,
In those pits.
She came to a stop.
Men stood with there families,
Holding there wives and children.
Telling them he was ok.
One looked up,
Sadness filled his eyes.
He wasn't coming back.

A court in Libya has sentenced Saif al-Islam Gaddafi, son of deposed leader Col Muammar Gaddafi, and eight others to death over war crimes linked to the 2011 revolution.
More than 30 close associates of Col Gaddafi were tried for suppressing peaceful protests during the uprising.
Saif al-Islam was not present in court and gave evidence via video link.
He is being held by a former rebel group from the town of Zintan that refuses to hand him over.
Former head of intelligence for the Gaddafi regime, Abdullah al-Senussi, is among those also facing death by firing squad, as is former PM Baghdadi al-Mahmoudi.

In fact (really getting into a rage of righteous indignation now), are they not noble for continuing to repel any contact with the outside world, armed only with bows and arrows? After all, "civilisation" is raping the planet, whereas all they are doing is living simply, in harmony with nature.
You can continue the rant for yourself. But please don't, or you will end up a tangled wreck of contradictions.
For one thing, your protests against western moralising would themselves be instances of moralising. You can't condemn on the grounds that no one has the right to condemn; or hold the rejection of universal moral values itself as a universal moral value.
Furthermore, the very people who think it wrong to criticise the values of certain indigenous people are often only too keen to denounce in very strong terms indeed the values of George W Bush, Adolf Hitler or Ronald McDonald - not that their values are comparable, of course. It doesn't take long to discover the limits of toleration for moral diversity.
The desire not to judge the Sentinelese according to our morality is rooted in some noble impulses. One is that we should not be so arrogant as to presume our moral values are perfect and that any culture whose ethics diverge is debased and degenerate. That is true, but all it means is that we should not rush to judgment and we should accept our own fallibility. It doesn't mean we should never judge at all.
We also have to be sympathetic to the situation in which people find themselves. So we understand why the Sentinelese might over-react to an accidental incursion, given their isolation, the threat they feel under, and the real danger outsiders pose simply as carriers of strange germs. But that doesn't stop us saying that the killings were indeed over-reactions and wrong. Mitigating circumstances should make us go easier on the criminals, not lead us to conclude there was never an actual crime.
Well, that's what I think anyway. But, frankly, who am I to say?

I had this dress custom made instead of standard size. It turned out fabulous.
Hi very nice i have a question for you can the bust area be concealed with a safety pin? I want to buy the dress but in my case i need to cover my bust and wanted to know if it can be adjusted. Thanks for your help
by culebralori Dec 11, 2013
I would go with a different dress. A safety pin will not close the bust and any adjustments would ruin the look. Sorry
by Shoshana Dec 27, 2013
I have a question. I know you said you had your dress custom made. Would you say that the dress is true to your real size? I want to order and I am not sure if I'll get it back in time. I need it by end of February.

Comprei este vestido de festa na cor marfim e usei como vestido de noiva...foi perfeito para mim que estou acima do peso e acima da idade! Passei minhas medidas e só tive que ajustar no ombro e o comprimento...valeu a pena por todo o custo e benefício, não acharia algo assim numa loja no Brasil....

Заказывала это платье бордового цвета.
Платье: настолько красивое, что я в него влюбилась с самого первого своего облачения в этот наряд :)
Сшито безупречно. Каждый шовчик обработан так, что нет ни ниток, ни шва.
Верхний слой из шифона, создается впечатление легкости.
Второй слой из атласа. Облагораживает покрой, делая его классическим шедевром. Нижний слой это подкладка под атлас. Благодаря ему нет внешних швов на платье. Тело чувствует себя как во второй коже.
Размер подошел как литой.
Встроенные чашечки на платье очень удобны. Не смотря на большой вырез, на плечах платье держится отлично и не требуется никаких дополнительных хитростей :)
Очень хорошо подчеркивает талию и бедра.
Я довольна. Обязательно буду рекомендовать ваш магазин всем своим клиентам и партнерам!
Я являюсь SD Dublinetwork. О вашем магазине узнала именно благодаря нашему Торговому центру DUBLI!
На моем сайте будет размещен видеоролик с демонстрацией покупок и инструкцией для клиентов. А так же мой отзыв о качестве вашего товара!
Спасибо поддержке магазина за отличный сервис, скорость и заинтересованность в клиенте.

Excellent well made dress. The quality is awesome. Be mindful to check your measurements and order accordingly. Also, remember it's a gown and they tend to not fit like regular dresses but run smaller. If you don't get your dress custom made, order your dress 3 to 4 sizes larger than US sizes to allow room for alteration. Especially if you have bust and a back side lol. As far the the bust area, I had to get a satin piece sewn in because it was showing too much for a church banquet. My normal dress size is a 10US. I ordered this in a 14 and it was too tight. I was lucky the lady that done my alteration found room to let the sides out which made it fit perfect. If I had ordered a 16, I may not have needed alteration. Overall, the dress was very well made, easy to walk in and an excellent quality. I received a lot of compliments. I would consider ordering it in a different color if I have another event to attend.
Such an amazing gown. I'm plus size and I got so many compliments. I ordered it in dark navy blue and it was perfect.
Dame you look good.
by mytosons1 Dec 05, 2015
Quick question, My arms are pretty big! Does the sleeves have enough room?
by mvargas61 Mar 23, 2016
The arms are billowy so there is plenty of room. Make sure to include your arm size in your measurements as these dresses are made to order your exact custom size!
by frenchsilk_99 Jul 03, 2016
This is a beautiful gorgeous wellmade stunning dress. It looks even more beautiful in person. I cannot believe the workmanship for the price you pay, even though to have it hemmed cost even more than the dress LOL, it was still worth it. I bought this for my son's wedding and got many compliments and did not look like the other female inlaws. It is not a typical mother of the groom dress which I liked. However, please take my advice and measure measure measure before ordering! I just assumed I was the same size as two years ago when I ordered my wedding dress (another stunning beautiful dress) and ordered the same size as then. This is a much more formfitting dress and it was too tight. Large ladies this is a great look for you but you'll need to wear your spanks! I contacted customer service and it took some persistence but they worked with me and I was very happy with the service they provided. Luckily they had a ready made in stock the next size up and sent it right out as soon as I purchased it. I was able to have my dress in time. I hope I have many more opportunities to wear this dress because I absolutely love it. Thank you LITB!
You looked beautiful! I'm ordering this dress for a Christmas paryy. Hope it looks as good on me as it does on you.
by dlegette2010 Nov 19, 2015
You look great in this dress
by Zeke Jun 25, 2016
This dress is really beautiful, and I had so many compliments on it, I can't tell you! However, I would suggest ordering it WAY in advance of when you need it, as I ordered it five weeks in advance in fushia, and it would not have come on time. The customer service people kindly replaced my order with the black dress, so that I would have it to wear for my performance. I would also highly recommend paying the extra money for the custom made version i.e. made to your measurements. The dress is very long, and you can't walk in it as is. I had to have it tailored as I was wearing it to perform, and couldn't possibly have it 6" too long in the front. The quality of the garment is exceptional. I highly recommend this company, and will order another dress from them for sure!

2. A painful goodbye
Looking back, here now at seventeen I know that I was very happy at home. All my memories of being with my parents seem to buzz with life, but the innate sadness always wins through. When we got to the train station only a very few were crying. They were all in shock. I had always tried to be the strong one for Jamie, but he wasn't around anymore. I visualize the way his face looked, hanging out of the window of the dank train pulling east, not quite knowing where he was headed, the way my mothers face looked as I pulled away in the opposite direction. Torn two ways, drawn both east and west. Surprised. Shocked. Almost grieving. I tried to forget that bit. The stream of painful memories continued. The station where I was abandoned. The look on my foster family's critical faces when they took in my untidy chocolate hair and stained knees. How I felt when some kind of chemical bomb destroyed my old town. What I did, when I heard that my mother was dead... I'd ran away, I had thought, no knew they were lying and I ran. They found me the day after, sobbing, delirious. It had finally hit me. I had received one last letter from my mother in reply to my own. She'd included a forward of a letter from Jamie. He hadn't been taken far.
I shivered, thinking of the sheer mass of bombs that place must have had to be able to attack almost every town and village I had ever known and wiped away the memories of such conflicting seeming times. I had made up my mind to leave this place some time ago, but had been unable to make myself. I had ties here, friends. Even in one of the very few places untouched by the war, I knew I had to be elsewhere, to find my brother. Mum would have wanted that. Even in death I didn't want to have her split in two. East and West. She couldn't be both. Mum had never been any good at multi-tasking. I half-smiled grimly at the thought and stood up shortly, swinging my legs back from the cliff edge, startling my male companion. Ayden and me had come on the same train to this village overlooking the almost barren ocean, which I looked across now bleakly. Six years. Not long enough with Ayden, but too long without my brother. "You're leaving then" He said it softly but it was a statement, not a question. The movement of his lips fascinated me. "There wasn't even a doubt" I whisper, betrayal stabbing at my chest. "I was going to go sometime" I sigh, apologetic. He'd tried to come but I'd turned him down. I would risk myself but I wouldn't jeopardize someone I loved. He slowly clambered to his feet, each movement pained, drawn out; and turned to face me, standing just a few inches taller than my five feet six. He scoured my eyes with deep green ones and I leant into him as he enveloped me in his embrace. I couldn't help myself; I turned and kissed him, lips pressing unreservedly against his. Gently surprised, but unresisting he hugged me all the tighter and I inhaled deeply; sending the scent to my core. His dark hair was a short curtain around me, blocking out the world. My pain intensified; knowing I had to leave. I drew away from him, away from the one place I could feel safe, feeling his arms stretch further to keep in contact with my pale skin; and jogged away, unable for now, to show him the tears that stained my face.
I couldn't stay for farewells, telling one person; I knew would be bad enough. Ayden would tell them where I'd gone. There were only thirty-two of us, even since Ayden's elder sister had twins. They had been evacuated together but I wasn't resentful. That just wasn't who I was. I darted into my tarpaulin-covered shelter and glanced toward my bed. A strip of red cloth was draped over the pillow. I had left it for Ayden, sentimental as I was. I sighed and took in my surroundings. The place I'd lived for the last five years after my foster family's house was destroyed, with them inside. They had always refused to shelter when the alarms went, professing that their home was their life. I walked quietly, unnoticed through the maze of multi-coloured tarpaulin/ brick shelters, listening to the happy conversation of my friends knowing there were many voices I would miss and far too many I would never hear again.
I escaped the maze, and looked out at a wilderness which would a long time ago have made a great hike. I knew it stretched towards the half-standing ruins of the village where some of these people had once lived happily. Looking to the sun I thought I could be there before nightfall. Fighting intensely with my pride I walked almost reluctantly eastwards, towards the damp dawn, unsure as to whether to look back. Finally I forced myself to turn and survey my only existing home. A tall lone figure stood at the edge, slumped, defeated. Now I too, was drawn two ways. Ayden lay behind and Jamie ahead. For a moment I couldn't move, frozen by my warring desires. A single tear ran down my face, stricken then I turned and walked slowly towards the old village, eyes streaming. I knew that by leaving, many would be hurt, but none more than Ayden. My Ayden.

I would love to see pics!!! We had a goat that had four..and lost one.
Heartbreaking, but like you, we were at work and couldn't be there for
Johnson Cyndi D Civ 95 CG/SCSRT <email@example.com> wrote:
Our hugely pregnant ewe finally gave birth yesterday while we were at
work. Four lambs! But sadly one died. If we'd been at home and watching
we probably could have saved it, the birth sac did not break so I'm
afraid it suffocated. We'll never know for sure, but we do have three
healthy little ones. They were happily following momma ewe and nursing
when we got home. I'm trying to look on the positive side, if there had
been four there is no question that we would have had to supplement them
with milk and that would have been a lot of work. The ewe has the
biggest udder I've ever seen on a sheep but I'm pretty sure 3 would be
the limit. Still, I'd rather have had the live lamb...quads are not
unheard of but not terribly common in Suffolks.
Anyway the three are very cute. Suffolks are born black but one of these
little ones is sort of splotchy grey and white. They always even out as
they get older but now it makes a handy ID method. Hopefully this
weekend I can take some pics of all the lambs.
So two down, one to go, hoping for another set of triplets and an easy
delivery without our intervention. I'll take the easy delivery over
extra lambs any day.

While it may not be difficult to find replacement parts for Volvo vehicles, these days only the absolute best are required to fix your car or truck. When your Volvo V90 left the factory, it was destined for a driver who wants Swedish engineering in their automobile. Anyone who operates a Volvo knows that when it comes to maintaining their vehicle only the most superior replacement parts will do. The vehicle in your driveway is head and shoulders above the rest compared to all the other cars, trucks, and SUVs currently being driven today.
Engines need to keep cool if they are to maintain operational status. That's why your Volvo V90 engine has a network of cooling hoses transferring a mixture of water and ethylene glycol throughout the engine. The radiator hoses under your hood connect the water pump and engine block to the radiator core, while other coolant hoses direct coolant through or past the thermostat housing, heater core, and the coolant reservoir. If a Volvo V90 radiator or coolant hose gets a leak, then coolant pressure will drop and it could boil; leading to engine failure.
Given all the hassles associated with fixing broken parts on your car or truck, let www.carpartsdiscount.com be the first place you go to make purchasing it easy. Ordering new Volvo parts from www.carpartsdiscount.com means you are getting the best deal on the absolute greatest original and aftermarket replacement V90 parts on the internet. Trust in the value of the parts you get from carpartsdiscount.com and realize incredible savings on all your upcoming repairs. All the Volvo V90 Coolant & Radiator Hose parts on this page will fit vehicles made in 1998, 1997. Choose your year below to refine your search.

text: Interview with Sarah Farlow following the HIF Agnes Water Surfing Festival Surfing Updates By Kelsey Donnelly 24 April 2016 So Sarah, tell us a bit about yourself, where you're from and how long you've been surfing for? My love for surfing began as a 13 year old nipper in Tannum Sands surf lifesaving club where I soon realised that standing up on my nipper board was much more fun then lying down! Dad, also a keen surfer, was thrilled and took my younger brother and I out on a couple of his old surf boards and we were hooked! My family and I spent most of our weekends down at Agnes Water surfing, and became members of the local Tide and Turn boardriders club. I competed in the monthly competitions until I moved to the Gold Coast when I was 17 to study at University and I now work as a Physiotherapist here. I have been surfing for 15 years now and competing for 13 years. I love that surfing is something I can enjoy with my family and friends and that it promotes a healthy, active, outdoor lifestyle. How many years have you been surfing the HIF Agnes Water surfing festival for and what is it that brings you back each year? I have been surfing the HIF Agnes Water surfing festival for 6 years. I keep returning to this festival because it is always a fun weekend away, a great chance for me to surf with my family and to support and promote surfing in the local region. What are your general routines, preparations and frame of mind you put yourself in prior to surfing a heat? Prior to surfing a heat I usually go for a free surf to get used to the conditions each day. I also like to make sure I have done some stretching before paddling out, eaten a healthy breakfast and keep well hydrated during the day. Who stood out for you most this year and could you tell us a bit about them based on your experience of surfing against them? This year was the strongest competition I have seen, especially in the younger age groups. The standout performer for me was 11 year old Lilliana Bowrey (pictured below), who made walking up and down the longboard look effortless and graceful. She was very deserving of the win in the Open Women's Longboard division and will be one to watch in the future! Images provided by Surfing QLD Great news for Surfing Queensland members!

HOT OR NOT: This high heeled rain boot
This makes me wanna punch someone in the face for even coming up with the idea, but I know there are some ride or die people when it comes to wearing heels so... maybe you're into this new "high-fashion" rainboot:

Serious question: Is the definition of high fashion "things people will never actually wear in real life"?
Would YOU wear it?! Don't let my strong opinions sway you, of course. ;)

Tube drivers are set to go on strike for 48 hours from Tuesday, causing even more chaos on London's groaning transport system.
Across a number of lines, commuters will be waylaid by infrequent trains, cancelled services and crammed carriages.
Some journey times will be doubled, and although over a hundred extra buses have been added to key routes to try and relieve overcrowding, this is likely to make roads even busier.
Although some of us will be cycling or even running to work, we asked Independent staff how to kill time in the most productive and entertaining way possible.

Should you find yourself stuck in a traffic jam, these apps, puzzles and games should help you through what is possibly the worst thing about living in London: the crushed, mind-numbing commute.
The strike is a response to Government plans to revolutionise ticketing on the Underground. It will mean shutting many ticket offices, something the Mayor claims will bring positive transformation to the London transport network. You can read more about it here.

Practice Your Craft
Grovetoberfest, Florida's biggest beer bash, sloshes into Coconut Grove this Friday, and the daylong brew fest rivals the best of its German brethren. If you're a connoisseur of suds, it's time to let your beer flag fly. Peacock Park (2820 McFarlane Rd., Coconut Grove) will overflow with craft brews from around the globe — more than 250 of them, from breweries including New Belgium, Sweetwater, Goose Island, Cigar City, Funky Buddha, and dozens of others. Attendees can wander the grounds of "the most scenic beer festival in the world" (not that you'll notice your surroundings with all the guzzling you'll be doing), watch saucy cooking demos, get schooled in homebrewing, listen to live tunes, and buy tasty nibbles. Local notables will offer food and beer pairings at Milam's Kitchen Lab, breweries will choose the city's best homebrew during a battle royal, and brew newbies can learn a thing or two at the workshop Beer Tasting 101. It's a beer lover's wet dream. There will even be a safe ride home program. What more could you ask of an afternoon of imbibing?
Sat., Oct. 19, 2:30-7 p.m., 2013
