The Pikes Peak International Hill Climb is America's version of our Isle of Man TT. It's a race to the clouds, 14,115 feet above sea level to be exact, where a bunch of lunatics with motorcycles, quadbikes, cars and trucks carve their way up 12.42 miles of mountain course, flirting with its 156 turns, hairpins, and cliff edges while battling snow, bears and altitude sickness. And Ducati are a big player in the event, winning their class six times and retaining the motorcycle course record, set in 2012 on a Multistrada with a cracking time of 9:52:819.
Ducati produced a celebratory, ultra-sleek Pikes Peak edition of the Multi back in 2011. And we've been treated to an updated model for 2016, which uses the 2015 Multistrada 1200S as a donor bike.

Have you ever been in the presence of really special people? People who have an intangible quality about them—a quality that you want to bottle, if only you knew what it was.I met two of the most significant people in the world of Ducati today. Vicki Smith and Rich Lambrechts are amazing collectors of Ducati, however, they are so much more than that.Rich is an engineer and designer who turned his talents to vintage Ducati motorcycle restorations. His abilities range from hand metalwork to perfect hand drawn pinstripes and everything in between.Vicki was a professional racecar driver for almost two decades and subsequently, Ducati motorcycles fit her need for speed perfectly. She developed Ducati ownership enhancement when she developed Ducati.netHer work with Ducati North America keeps her in the center of the Ducati action worldwide.Vicki and Rich make a formidable pair with broad complementary skills that range from mechanical to motorcycle events, management and social media. They are the keepers of the Ducati flame. Vicki has an amazing knowledge of all things, and all people, Ducati. I don't think there would be anyone who knows Ducati history better.Rich, the master craftsman has restored and built some of the finest pieces of art I have had the pleasure to photograph. In order to be appreciated, his workmanship has to be savoured. He is the Michelangelo of the Ducati world.Every brand of significance has those very special few people who not only love and collect the brand, but they are part of the brand's history, and help keep the brand alive.Rich and Vicki are carrying the torch for the next generation. The bikes they have rescued and restored are priceless time capsules that pay homage to the artisans who built these masterpieces. Their collection tells the stories of past battles and victories, the gladiators who rode them and the creators of them.Their collection goes way beyond bikes, to all things Ducati. Who else do you know has Cook Neilson's Daytona wining trophy (Ducati's first ever win at the fabled track) in their office? If that doesn't impress you, I think it's time to check your pulse.As I reflect on the day, I feel like I have been with Ducati royalty and they have treated me like a VIP guest with the all-access pass. If there are just a few more amazing people like Vicki and Rich out there in Ducati land then I think the next generation will have many masterpieces to admire and marvel at.

Ducati rider lights the way in drama-filled season finale
The final race of the 2016 MOTUL FIM Superbike World Championship had it all; Ducati dominating proceedings, a Pedercini Kawasaki flaming inferno and an admirable show of team spirit by the current World Champion. Chaz Davies (Aruba.it Racing- Ducati) shattered the competition from beginning to end, even after the race was restarted. Tom Sykes (Kawasaki racing Team) was given a ray of hope when his teammate and newly crowned World Champion, Jonathan Rea (Kawasaki Racing Team) let him pass on the final corner to take second and the overall runner-up spot.

Jerry Dean has one of the most significant collections of Ducati motorcycles in North America. His extensive collection reflects a life-long love affair with the brand.Jerry doesn't just go out and buy significant bikes. Jerry discovers bikes that most of us wouldn't give a second glance to in lakes, swap meets and on the back of pick-ups. He brings home rusted, broken, neglected motorcycles and he brings them back to life.As he works, he pictures the finished item and transforms each junky bike into a thing of beauty. This is art in its most pure form.Jerry is a toolmaker by trade, but an artisan by design. He builds frames, paints all his bikes, rebuilds all the mechanicals, casts dies for them, and even does his own upholstery.He is the last of a dying breed, a true artisan who is working to keep the legacy of Ducati alive and well. His home is a mix of madness and genius. He can tell you about every part on every bike, where he sourced it—or how he made it. As we move from room to room, another chapter in Ducati's history is unveiled.Spending the day with Jerry was something I will never forget. His knowledge and passion for all things Ducati is incredible and the bikes he builds–well they are the stuff of legends.There is something deeply satisfying in shaping something with your hands. Proper artificing is like a song made solid. It is an act of creation. ― Patrick Rothfuss

Glinda of Oz HTML version
Queen Coo-ee-oh
Princess Ozma considered the situation gravely. Then she tied her handkerchief to her
wand and, standing at the water's edge, waved the handkerchief like a flag, as a signal.
For a time they could observe no response.
"I don't see what good that will do," said Dorothy. "Even if the Skeezers are on that
island and see us, and know we're friends, they haven't any boats to come and get us."
But the Skeezers didn't need boats, as the girls soon discovered. For on a sudden an
opening appeared at the base of the palace and from the opening came a slender shaft of
steel, reaching out slowly but steadily across the water in the direction of the place where
they stood. To the girls this steel arrangement looked like a triangle, with the base nearest
the water. It came toward them in the form of an arch, stretching out from the palace wall
until its end reached the bank and rested there, while the other end still remained on the
Then they saw that it was a bridge, consisting of a steel footway just broad enough to
walk on, and two slender guide rails, one on either side, which were connected with the
footway by steel bars. The bridge looked rather frail and Dorothy feared it would not bear
their weight, but Ozma at once called, "Come on!" and started to walk across, holding
fast to the rail on either side. So Dorothy summoned her courage and followed after.
Before Ozma had taken three steps she halted and so forced Dorothy to halt, for the
bridge was again moving and returning to the island.
"We need not walk after all," said Ozma. So they stood still in their places and let the
steel bridge draw them onward. Indeed, the bridge drew them well into the glass-domed
building which covered the island, and soon they found themselves standing in a marble
room where two handsomely dressed young men stood on a platform to receive them.
Ozma at once stepped from the end of the bridge to the marble platform, followed by
Dorothy, and then the bridge disappeared with a slight clang of steel and a marble slab
covered the opening from which it had emerged.
The two young men bowed profoundly to Ozma, and one of them said:
"Queen Coo-ee-oh bids you welcome, O Strangers. Her Majesty is waiting to receive you
in her palace."
"Lead on," replied Ozma with dignity.
But instead of "leading on," the platform of marble began to rise, carrying them upward
through a square hole above which just fitted it. A moment later they found themselves
within the great glass dome that covered almost all of the island.
Within this dome was a little village, with houses, streets, gardens and parks. The houses
were of colored marbles, prettily designed, with many stained-glass windows, and the
streets and gardens seemed well cared for. Exactly under the center of the lofty dome was
a small park filled with brilliant flowers, with an elaborate fountain, and facing this park
stood a building larger and more imposing than the others. Toward this building the
young men escorted Ozma and Dorothy.

|[Bug 55943] Provide a way prevent looking at the System classloader before the webapp classloaders
|Wed, 01 Jan 2014 11:24:58 GMT
https://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=55943 --- Comment #1 from Mark Thomas <email@example.com> --- If this change were to be implemented then it should be implemented the same way as the delegate flag since that controls a similar behaviour. I'd lean towards to boolean flag that simply disabled the code block (0.2) that checked the system class loader. Note that the system class loader is checked first to enforce the specification requirement that web applications must not be allowed to override Java SE platform classes. I'd hesitate before adding an option to disable this check because of the specification requirement. I wonder if there isn't a better solution to this issue. The system class loader might not be the best class loader to use here. It is really the bootstrap class loader that is required but you can't get a reference to that in some JREs - including Oracle's. The class loader hierarchy for an Oracle JVM is system->ext->bootstrap so using the ext class loader would work in that case. I'm thinking that rather than using the system class loader in this case the parent of the system class loader should be used (if it has one). That should both fix this issue and still enforce the specification requirement for not allowing the overriding of Java SE platformclasses. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: email@example.com For additional commands, e-mail: email@example.com

Shakespeare 2.0
If years of being force-fed Elizabethan English in the classroom has given you Shakespeare nightmares, where men in tights attack your grades with swords made of discarded SparkNotes, please allow John Manzelli to change your mind. Trained in classical deconstruction of theater (meaning I take old plays and make them interesting, he says), the director will present a version of The Tempest at New Theatre that does away with all the stuffy outfits and melancholy settings. The play is the story of a usurped duke, his daughter, his shipwrecked enemy, and the entangled revenge and love that ensue. Manzelli re-imagines the great bards play through the lens of postcolonial theory, so his Tempest will be set on a South Pacific island and accompanied by modern visuals, sound, dance, and a cast of men wearing pants that allow for adequate breathing room.

Chapter 6
As he's coming my way, the dark ones shriek!
They start to scream his name, as if they are afraid.
As if this is the end for them. As if they are going to die.
They scream as if they are going to be destroyed.
Why do they act so scared?
Is he the one they say will set the captives free?
I look at him, trying to escape my demons, saying, "Jesus, rescue me!"

Factors influencing the determination of analyte ion surface partitioning coefficients in electrosprayed droplets
- Received:
- Revised:
- Accepted:
- Cite this article as:
- Sjöberg, P.J.R., Bökman, C.F., Bylund, D. et al. J Am Soc Spectrom (2001) 12: 1002. doi:10.1016/S1044-0305(01)00281-1
The observed response in mass spectrometry utilizing electrospray as a sample introduction technique can be affected by a number of factors. In this study a series of two-electrolyte systems was investigated and the mass spectrometric responses were modeled by the use of droplet surface partitioning coefficients and instrumental response factors according to a recently reported method (Sjöberg et al., Anal. Chem.2001, 73, 23–28). The partitioning coefficient and the instrumental response factor were found to be affected by the chosen experimental conditions. Experimental parameters that were investigated include spray position relative to the orifice, spray potential, nebulizer and curtain gas flow rates, ionic strength, and organic content of the sprayed solution. The time history of the generated droplets turned out to be of importance to both the partitioning coefficients and the instrumental response factor. For example, a general increase in the surface partitioning coefficients for the tetrapentylammonium ion was initially observed when the spray was aiming closer to the sampling orifice. Furthermore, it was shown with a small amount of deuterium labeled electrolyte that the total ionic strength and not just the electrolyte concentration influence the instrumental response factor.

UPDATE: Armstrong
Exonerated from Doping at 2009 Tour de France.
UPDATED (Sept. 20): Part 4 Now Available!
"…What becomes evident from the composite prediction is that a rise in Retic between the end of the Giro and 6/16 may have been missed. The low Retic at 6/16 may be consistent with the fall after an initial peak. Similarly, the low point at 1 week after altitude exposure may be consistent with the low point after altitude exposure. Overal, assuming that the Retic did in fact trend up before falling you end up with a somewhat akward but plausible fit.
The explanation becomes less convincing when the Retic stays flat after reaching its low. The Retic does show a recovery, but it comes a week later than expected and is followed by another drop. In the end, altitude could be used to account for the initial drop in Retic, but it is not a solid explanation for a persistent low normal Retic.
Taking into account training status, the effect of a Grand Tour, and altitude exposure the analysis fails to fully explain the persistently low normal retic from 6/16 through the Tour. While other factors may be at play they probably have less of an impact. There is also the possibility of a synergistic effect, but it would be difficult to find data that supports this argument while excluding the possibility of manipulation at the same time…"
UPDATED (Sept. 15): Part 3 Now Available!
According to Local Cyclist:
"Yes the Tour Hgb is explainable. In fact, the Hgb may have behaved in a completely consistent manner… the the expected volume expansion did in fact take place. It simply started before the second grand tour and reached a physiologic limit before the end of the race. The clue to this possibility is listening to the Retic…"

Does your business have a bad reputation?
Fix it the right way.
Corporate Advocacy Program™
Maxlux USA onnline and advertised on Amazon is a complete FRAUD! I purchased my hid bulbs through Amazon prime (needed them quickly) and after reading their reviews I decided to buy. Unfortunately, those reviews were probably written within a couple weeks of them receiving the product.
The Hid Bulbs I received from Maxlux USA didn't last me more than 90 days. First came the flickering, then came the shutting on and off and then it completely went out.
I contacted Maxlux USA through Amazon and they didn't care, they told me to return through Amazon, however they knew well in advance that I had already passed my window of retrurn so it was no skin off their back... So they pushed me off and didn't care.
DO NOT ORDER FROM MAXLUX USA...there's a good chance your Hid bulbs, hid kits, D2S bulbs, D4S bulbs or DS1 hid bulbs will not work past a few months. [continued below]....
They are a scammer and they should also be kicked off Amazon. In fact look at their website: http://maxluxusa.com/main_page.html - it was built with godaddy website tonight.

So cute! I love that you give tips on why to wear because it is so hard to choose! I love those rocker jeans! So cute! I wish I looked that cute in jeans haha.
We are going to be fostering from 0-2yo, so I am loving the Coming up Roses outfit for little girls and the Bring the Sunshine outfit for little boys. So so cute!!!
So so excited to come across this blog! I just recently had my first baby he's going to be 3 months next week! I never realized the impact holidays would be with a new baby! I feel like they mean so much more especially since we get to celebrate them together as a family! Loved all the imput on what to wear especially for Valentine's Day! I am excited to celebrate his first Valentine's Day and actually already started shopping for his special outfit!!! For me it's never been about the chocolates either although it is a plus. I've always gone out and treated myself to something special to wear and now I get to get my little guy all dolled up and no chocolate….just yet but I'm sure if he had a say he would say otherwise!! Love the post!

SESSION TITLE: Biomarkers in Lung Cancer
SESSION TYPE: Original Investigation Slide
PRESENTED ON: Sunday, October 27, 2013 at 10:45 AM - 11:45 AM
PURPOSE: It is increasingly recognized that interaction of cancer cells, macrophages, and inflammatory response in the tumor micro-environment may facilitate cancer cell invasion and metastasis. However the specific molecular mechanisms are not well defined. Triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells 1 (TREM-1) is a member of the super immunoglobulin family expressed on a select group of monocyte macrophage and neutrophils. TREM-1 amplifies toll like receptor (TLR) induced inflammatory response. We have previously shown that TREM-1 accentuates inflammatory response by inhibiting apoptosis of macrophages thus prolonging their survival. Based on these data we hypothesize that TREM-1 expression in tumor associated macrophages (TAM) is an important regulator of lung cancer progression. To address this we determined the expression of TREM-1 in human NSCLC specimens.
METHODS: Tumor and normal lung specimens from patients who underwent surgical resection for NSCLC were obtained from clinical and translational research institute at University of Florida. TREM-1 expression was determined by using immunohistochemistry and confocal microscopy. Macrophage specificity was determined by CD68 staining. TREM-1 expression was also confirmed by quantitative real time polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) from tumor tissue.
RESULTS: Immunostaining and confocal microscopy showed that TREM-1 was highly expressed in macrophages in the tumor tissue as confirmed by CD68 staining. Tumor tissue showed an increase in TREM-1 mRNA expression. TREM-1 was not detected in macrophages from normal lung tissue.
CONCLUSIONS: Our data shows that TREM-1 is highly expressed in NSCLC and not detected in normal lung tissue. Expression of TREM-1 in tumors is specifically seen in TAM's. Thus expression of TREM-1 in tumors may play a key role in the biology and progression of NSCLC.
CLINICAL IMPLICATIONS: Detection of TREM-1 may serve as an important biomarker in lung cancer progression. Future studies are needed to define the role of modulation of TREM-1 in NSCLC.

Sun Moon Lake
... at the top of the stairs then climbed to the top of the pagoda which had an amazing view! There was a bell at the top that had a sign saying that if you say Buddha's name 3 times then make a wish, your wish will come true, so of course we did it! Once we finished our climb, we went to see a beautiful Temple. This one was very new and was still being completed. The carvings had such intricate details, they were absolutely beautiful! The main theme of the temple was dragons as ...
Day 1: Sun Moon Lake and surroundings
Sun Moon Lake- very pretty, you appreciate the nature in Taiwan. But, it's just a mountain lake. Xuanzang Temple- Buddhist, honouring monk who traveled to India to study Buddhism and translate scriptures in Chinese, bringing the religion to China. Ci'en Pagoda- built by Chiang Kai Sek in memory of his mother when she died (1971). It's 46m tall, and it's built ...
Flying squirrels, fire-flies, and monsters
Day 4 we headed off down to Nantou to Sun Moon Lake - a long bus ride, but at least the kids had a chance to rest for a while. We went across to the temple on a boat, then another 30 min or so on narrow, winding roads and we got to Xitou Park, a nature education area where we stayed for the last 2 nights.
It was lovely - a forest of redwoods, that are part of ...

At the airport, I got hello kitty flight passes! Eva air is so cool and there was hello kitty all over the terminals. I saw more hello kitty here than Japan, weird! Inside the airport, there were all sorts of cool art installations and tasty samples. I had quite a bit of time to kill before my flight, so ...

A Fish Story
Take a look at Cathy Elliott's latest column courtesy of NASCAR
Guest Column By Cathy Elliott
I was standing on a muddy riverbank early one morning recently, talking to a couple of guys who had spent the previous night with their feet sticking out of their car windows and their fishing poles sticking out of the water. They were in hot pursuit of that rare delicacy, the South Carolina catfish. A bucket full of those babies is the definition of a good day in the Palmetto State.
We were chatting about this and that when it dawned on me that it was Saturday morning.
"Hey, I missed qualifying yesterday," I said. "Who's got the pole at Pocono?"
They didn't know, although their hopes were running much higher than the catfish count that the man with the number one starting position would be Dale Earnhardt, Jr. No big shocker there.
I prattled on about how I hoped it was Tony Stewart and that I really wanted him to finally win that first points race, and wasn't it cool that he was leading the driver standings?
They gave me the look I so often see when having conversations about sports with guys. It's equal parts amusement and condescension, with a dash of cockiness thrown in for good measure.
"Kurt and Jimmie are tied for the lead," one said.
I told them I thought Johnson and Busch were third and fourth at the time, with Stewart and Jeff Gordon at the top. "Trust me on this one," I said.
They replied that they weren't sure they could put much racing faith in a strange know-it-all girl, especially at 8 in the morning.
That remark chapped me more than a little bit (and for the record, it was 9:15), but it also got me to thinking about something. If these guys couldn't believe a woman might actually know something about NASCAR, how might they respond to the idea of a competitive female driver on the track, mixing it up with the likes of Greg Biffle and Mark Martin every weekend?
Because it could happen. After a few years of hearing Danica Patrick claiming to have little or no interest in moving from open-wheel racing to NASCAR, suddenly she seems to have flipped her internal radio to a new station, and this one's playing a different tune.
"I'm very flattered everyone is curious," Patrick said in a recent interview. "It's interesting to me as well. Do I stay where I am? Do I try to change? It's all about evaluating options, and I think that's something any good business person does."
I'm not sure exactly what that means, but I am sure I didn't read the word "no" in there anywhere.
I understand that many people will dismiss the feasibility of this idea immediately. They'll say she isn't ready. She'll say she isn't even the best driver in the series she races in right now.
They'll bring up Patrick's two appearances in the "Sports Illustrated" swimsuit issue, as if she can't be taken seriously because she refuses to ignore the fact that she is pretty. They will point out that no NASCAR driver has ever done anything like that.
Really? A particular "ESPN: The Magazine" cover featuring Carl Edwards comes to mind. One of my friends has it framed on her wall. Do great looks diminish the value of great talent? Of course not.
Realistically, I admit it isn't easy to successfully cross that line between Indy cars and stock cars. Just ask the likes of former Indianapolis 500 champion Dario Franchitti, who couldn't quite seem to find his rhythm in the NASCAR world.
Sam Hornish Jr. is having a nice season, though, and Juan Pablo Montoya is improving so much each week that no one even cringes anymore when they draw his name in the race pool. He is now considered a legitimate contender.
Patrick has to be taken seriously as a driver. She was the Indy car series Rookie of the Year in 2005 and became the first woman in history to win a race in that series in 2008. She finished third in this year's Indianapolis 500. She can drive.
Patrick reminds me of Tiger Woods, in a way. Not because of dominating performances, since she hasn't achieved that level of success yet, but because regardless of who your favorite driver is or who you want to win, you always know where she is on the track.
Plus, I don't think sponsorship in NASCAR would be a problem. I'll bet godaddy.com is already trying to figure out some way to work the phrase "Danica does Daytona" into their 2010 marketing campaign. Just in case.
Danica Patrick is interesting, and in good equipment with a patient team, it would be interesting to see what she could do in a stock car. Folks who have never seen a NASCAR race would undoubtedly check it out, and a lot of them would realize they liked it, and would stick around, even if Patrick ultimately didn't.
If she wants to try, and NASCAR is willing to let her, then I say go for it.
I see no losers here. In fact, if NASCAR manages to hook Danica Patrick, no bucket will be required. This one fresh fish will be the catch of the year.

I warned readers last week about the worst case scenario pricing of 3D Systems (NYSE:DDD) that could drive the share price down to $35. And as we approach the end of April, we should see higher volatility, since 3D Systems is expected to report first quarter earnings on April 29. I have reason to believe that 3D Systems might surprise on the upside when it reports next week. The expansion in Latin America and new developments on the consumer front should provide a stronger footing for future growth, and the rapidly expanding product portfolio in prior months should help the company's revenue growth momentum throughout 2014. Short-term risks in the general market could push the share price lower in the next couple of weeks, but I believe we are very close to a sustainable bottom.
New developments on the consumer front should help drive long-term growth
In November 2013, 3D Systems partnered with Google's (NASDAQ:GOOG) (NASDAQ:GOOGL) Motorola Mobility unit to develop 3-D printed modules and user-customizable smartphones to support the project Ara. Although Google sold Motorola to Lenovo (OTCPK:LNVGF), it kept its patent portfolio and project Ara. 3D Systems' CEO Avi Reichental said in early April that the building blocks of Ara will start shipping early next year. Project Ara is designed to produce a configurable smartphone. Upon purchase, "you will get an empty smartphone frame. And then you can insert the hardware components of your choice on the back of it." 3D Systems will make the plastic parts, including the circuitry, as well as the custom designs on the surface of the blocks. This bodes well for 3D Systems' consumer initiative, although we will see the first results of the partnership in the second half of 2015.
On April 14, 3D Systems announced a partnership with Staples (NASDAQ:SPLS), and a pilot project of 3D printing services in two Staples stores in New York and Los Angeles. The two stores will let consumers and small businesses create personalized products and use 3D printing hardware. This pilot program will help 3D Systems to learn about customers' needs for a local 3-D printing service. There is also potential for a meaningful rollout of 3-D printing services across the country in the next couple of years. This pilot program should be regarded as a great learning tool for the company going forward, which has potential to become significant down the road.
Goldman is favoring Stratasys
Goldman is more bullish on Stratasys (NASDAQ:SSYS), which has a solid presence in the industrial end markets, and noted Stratasys also has potential to gain a larger share of aftermarket revenue by leveraging its RedEye business. I would add that Stratasys has also been more successful on the consumer front, at least when judged by revenue contribution, although I expect the previously announced initiatives will help 3D Systems to better compete in the consumer markets. 3D Systems also has an advantage over Stratasys in the metals printing market.
Earnings report is expected next week, and we should see increased volatility in the next two weeks
3D Systems is due to report earnings next Tuesday and we should see higher volatility in the next two weeks. I believe that revenue growth and the progress in the consumer market will be the most important metrics. The market was disappointed with Q4 revenue being slightly below the mid-range of management guidance, and management stated that the announced releases of new products delayed purchases in Q4. The delayed purchases should help boost Q1 revenue growth, and I believe this might be a decisive factor in the Q1 report which should help 3D Systems to report above expectations. An increased 2014 revenue guidance might also help the share price next week. The Q1 earnings report should be the determining factor for the short-term share price. If 3D Systems disappoints once again, we might be headed for the worst case scenario and a share price of $35. But I expect a positive report next week, and the share price might not get there, unless we see a strong sell-off in the general market, as was the case in the last couple of weeks.
3D Systems continues to expand aggressively with new partnerships and acquisitions. The results of strong product introductions should be visible in the earnings report next week, as the delayed customer purchases should help 3D Systems deliver above expectations. Higher volatility should be expected in the next two weeks, and a favorable earnings report will probably put an end to a decline in the share price. On the other hand, a poor earnings report and a general market sell-off might drive the share price below $40.

Smaller firms challenge on international projects
International project finance, for many years a market dominated by the largest US and magic circle firms, is showing signs of offering up opportunities to mid-market firms and even smaller rivals.
According to one leading projects specialist, the decreasing appetite among investment banks for lower-margin project finance mandates and the increasing influence of contractors in deals is allowing in a new breed of legal adviser. The coming years may prove that they are more nimble and profitable (relative to their other practice groups) than their global powerhouse counterparts.
The exit of former Cadwalader Wickersham & Taft projects head Paul Biggs (The Lawyer, 27 February) is illustrative of this trend. Biggs is to launch his own project finance boutique, known as Trinity International, with other members of Cadwalader's now-dissolved projects group. Biggs tells The Lawyer that he and his team have been "inundated" with offers to join other firms, but decided to turn them down in the belief that they could run a successful independent firm. Trinity will focus on project finance and corporate work in emerging markets, with a special focus on Africa – a long-time speciality of Biggs's.
Although Biggs's venture may be the most radical, it is not alone in targeting international project deals in a new way. Several mid-market outfits are looking to take on the global giants in the international projects arena, among them Berwin Leighton Paisner (BLP). The firm kickstarted its international projects ambitions late last year with the hire of Dewey Ballantine partner Jonathan Simpson. Simpson's arrival looks like heralding a period of dramatic growth in BLP's projects team, with some 17 partners in 18 months believed to be pencilled in for a BLP business card. When The Lawyer caught up with Simpson, he was about to board a plane for Australia on a raiding mission to recruit upwards of 20 assistants. That is what you call a project.
Results increase demand for corporate lawyers
The Lawyer's exclusive global report on the top 20 US firms' 2005 revenue and profit figures (6 March) not only highlighted the current strength of the top firms' financial positions but also suggested that the buoyancy in the legal recruitment market is only likely to increase.
The majority of firms reported strong revenue and profit growth, driven primarily by a return to big-ticket M&A. Consequently, the hunger among the leading firms for corporate lawyers has rarely been greater.
As Sloane Poulton, a recruitment consultant at Taylor Root, puts it: "The market is very strong at the moment. There are numerous opportunities for corporate partners with a following in established practices and now some start-ups, particularly in M&A and private equity, and there is a growing demand in AIM."
Having 'a following', as Poulton puts it, is the key for the US firms in London that are in growth mode. For the leading firms, that is likely to translate into a portable book of business worth in excess of $5m (£2.9m). And the same firms are more than willing to stump up to get their lawyer. Guaranteed incomes, in a variety of forms, are currently being offered in London well in excess of $1m (£572,000) a year. One US firm, listed in The Lawyer's top 20, is currently offering a guarantee in excess of $2m (£1.1m). However, the return of guarantees met with a degree of scepticism among several of London's leading recruitment specialists. As Glass Consultancy's Jonathan Glass says: "Apart from certain rare circumstances, if you're good enough to justify a guarantee then you shouldn't need one."
The current health of the leading US firms was on display in the figures published by The Lawyer, with seven firms breaking the billion- dollar barrier.
Skadden Arps Slate Meagher & Flom, the number one-placed firm, went further, breaking through the $1.5bn (£858m) threshold for the first time. Its revenue hit $1.58bn (£903.7m) in 2005, up from $1.44bn (£823.7m) in 2004, while average profit per equity partner (PEP) rose by 6.5 per cent to $1.9m (£1.1m).
Greenberg Traurig posted the most impressive hike in revenue with turnover up 21 per cent to $860m (£491.9m).
O'Melveny & Myers also confirmed that it was in growth mode during 2005 with a 16 per cent revenue rise to $808m (£462.2m), while PEP rose by a staggering 23 per cent to $1.6m (£920,000). This was the highest figure of growth in profit within the top 20 during 2005.
Access to the German market helped Kirkland & Ellis, which launched in Munich at the start of 2005, to a 12 per cent rise in revenue to $935m (£534.8m). The firm also hit the $2m (£1.1m) mark for PEP for the first time, with an increase of 10 per cent to $2.2m (£1.3m).
Sullivan & Cromwell and Simpson Thacher were the only other firms within the top 20 ranked by revenue to offer PEP above $2m, with $2.6m (£1.5m) and $2.4m (£1.4m) respectively.
Weil Gotshal & Manges and White & Case joined the elite group of firms with gross revenues above the $1bn (£572m) mark for the first time, although only by the skin of their teeth after they reported $1bn and $1.05bn (£601m) respectively.
Kelley Drye and Collier join forces
February saw a significant move in the New York legal market when Kelley Drye & Warren merged with Washington DC-based Collier Shannon Scott.
The deal increased Kelley Drye's DC office manpower from around 40 lawyers to approximately 125, boosting significantly the firm's regulatory expertise in the process.
Kelley Drye has 300 lawyers spread across six offices in the US and three international presences, including affiliate offices in Jakarta and Mumbai. Collier has 82 lawyers, all of whom are based in its single office in DC.
Collier chairman Paul Rosenthal has become managing partner of the new firm's DC office and two of Collier's lawyers have joined its national management board.
Winston shrugs off exits in expansion strategy
Another US firm on the expansion trail last month, or at least laying claim to expansion as a strategy, was Winston & Strawn.
The Chicago-based firm has suffered a string of departures in recent weeks, so its ambition of growing domestically (The Lawyer, 13 February) is one tinged with irony.
Recent exits include the former head of its project practice Chris McIsaac, who joined Clifford Chance as co-head of its energy and projects group in Washington DC, and projects partner Lori Bean, who also joined Clifford Chance.
The US firm also lost banking and finance rainmaker and former New York office managing partner Robert Bostrom to mortgage lender Freddie Mac, where he becomes its new executive vice-president and general counsel.
Despite the exits, in February Winston chairman James Thompson told The Lawyer that the firm was looking to grow its New York and California presences, as well as researching new opportunities in Asia and Europe. The expansion, which Thompson said included London, could come "by way of merger or by way of hiring lateral partners".
Thompson said the expansion strategy would be a key focus of Winston's new managing partner, tax partner Thomas Fitzgerald, who takes over in August from incumbent James Neis, who spent 13 years in the role.

Rotary Feeder for Bulk Material Handling Processes
Rotary Feeder for Bulk Material Handling Processes Contributes Immediate, Tangible Operating Advantages and Long-term Production and Maintenance Savings
ACS Valves rotary feeder designs provide long-term production and maintenance savings by reducing the total lifecycle maintenance requirements of the MD Series of rotary feeder valves. The MD Series valve housings are cast in North America to ensure superior strength in the composition and solidification of the housing's metallurgy. The MD Series housings are then CNC-machined to precise tolerances; eliminating axial shaft movement, seal leakage, and shortened bearing life. The ACS Valves MD Series further extends maintenance cycles with an outboard bearing design that removes the bearings from the path of damaging and contaminating materials, protects the bearings in high temperature applications to 750°F, while easily managing application pressure differentials up to 15 PSIG.
ACS Valves MD Series rotary feeders are available in cast iron, or cast 304 or 316 stainless steel. Seven valve sizes are available from 4-inch to 16-inch. Rotor configurations include: closed-end, metering, shallow-pocket, Teflon®-coated, and adjustable-tip. Adjustable rotor tips are available in EPDM, hardened steel, stainless steel, bronze or polyurethane. Interior surface coating options include: hard chrome, tungsten, and Teflon®.

Mu-copper foil is used to create a Faraday cage in an existing room or building.
Mu-Copper foil has high attenuation properties in the electrical field (up to 120 dB) as well as in the magnetic field (see shielding performance table).
It is easy to apply, like wallpaper, thanks to its special adhesive for walls, ceilings and floors. The interior finish can be plaster board, foam tiles or plywood.
The 0.12 mm thick Mu-Copper is used to transform a regular room into a shielded room; the product has excellent shielding performance even at low frequencies. The system is easy to mount on shielded doors with clamping devices. The standard width of Mu-Copper is 1000 mm; the foil can be delivered on rolls or as ready-made sheets.
For the joints you can use a 50 mm overlap. For extra high performance you can fully solder the joints or use a seaming /copper tape with a conductive self-adhesive to apply over the joints.
Basic values for the material and Mu-copper cage
These values are measured under laboratory conditions.
In other situations, results may differ; please read our Guarantee.

|Shielding performance of mu-copper foil 0.12 mm thick
|These values are measured under laboratory conditions.
In other situations, results may differ; please read our Guarantee.
Measurements according to MIL STD 285 and the following situation:
You can create a Faraday cage with high shielding performance yourself in an economic way, using local labour. This is possible in existing buildings as well as in new ones, without loss of space. Depending on the quality of the doors, vent panels, filters and/or windows used, attenuation levels up to 80-100 dB in the E-field can be realized. When more layers are applied, it is possible to achieve over 120 dB.
For ventilation we have developed honeycomb ventilation panels. Especially for the Mu-copper Faraday cages we can deliver honeycomb vent panels with a Mu-copper flap around the edges. It is easy to solder these into the Mu-copper Faraday cage.
For other honeycomb ventilation panels, see our Honeycomb ventilation webpage.
The system can be used with a detachable or fixed ceiling to separate existing ducts and cables from the shielded room.
When a lower performance of e.g. 40-60 dB is acceptable, we can retrofit your existing door. The door is then equipped with gaskets at the top and sides, and with a conductive copper brush and doorstep at the bottom.
Both swinging and sliding doors are suitable for being shielded this way.
For heavy duty applications we can supply Faraday cage doors that offer up to 140 dB reduction.
For more information see our Faraday cage doors webpage
In addition to EM shielded doors and windows, the screened rooms can be equipped with the following components:
We also offer shielding solutions for water pipes, medical gases, and ventilation when needed.

Yonderboy / Just Handshakes (We're British) - split single
By Various Artists
A double A-Side from local label Tip Toe released earlier this month, we have two local bands for your delectation:
Yonderboy - Vast Ocean
Only formed last summer, 2009 has seen Yonderboy start to deliver some of their promise, with praise for live shows and this song, a jangly indie-pop number. The Wedding Present are cited as a comparison, which is fair but the sound is more like the bands that they were influenced by with strong shades of the Scottish Postcard label, especially the Edwyn Collins fronted Orange Juice.
Truth be told it could have been recorded at pretty much any time over the last thirty years, which isn't a bad thing: perhaps I should describe it as classic jangly indie-pop.
It's a good song, a simple but effective chorus and a nice emotive lilt in the singer's voice. At over five minutes it's overlong but its meanderings are well arranged.
Just Handshakes (We're British) - Brass Knuckles
Again, a young band with a lot ahead of them and again classic winsome, girly indie-pop; if this had been sent as some lost early-80's track I'd not have doubted it. Not as strong a song, with the arrangement a little fussy, although the military drums are effective. The singer doesn't sound like she's much interested, with a folksy sing-song delivery that undermines the message of the song. And again with the jangly guitar.

Forgive me; Forget you
Poem by: julistar
Status: Finished
Genre: Poetry
How much should i really take
before admitting defeat
How long should i wait
before it sinks in again
loving me is not your priority
you gave your name to someone else
you bring the courts into our affairs
you dissect and pour your disgust into everything
But what was it I kept hoping to see
when i look at you
I kept hoping for the best
that the surprise twist
at the end of the season
would reveal
it was all a dream
I kept hoping the hero would emerge
and save me, save the day and we
you and I would kiss as the
credits faded and the crescendo
You would show them all
they were mistaken about you
You know who you loved all along
and i knew it too
that it is why i believed in
Forgetting you will be a must
not in the sense you think
i simply now withold my trust
i am so tired of being afraid
so weary and ashamed of the waste
so disillusioned too about what i felt for you
so hurt inside by the many tiny things
so ready for all this to simply end
so lonely when i am with you
so sad for the things, all the things
i wanted to do, but now not with you
so much longing for a life
that will never be lived
not with you
not with you

5. Dopey IntroductionsMature
The room was nice and comfortable looking. To my right were one wooden desk and a chair. Opening the draws I noticed there were a few writing pads and pens and pencils. To the left of my wardrobe was a small cupboard where I could put all my books and supplies. But unpacking would happen later. For now, I was going to explore.
Stepping out the room and locking it behind me, I sighed and was about to start descending the stair case again when I noticed that to my left was an elevator. Bad, bad, teachers but why can't I do this the fun way?
Holding my breath, I hauled myself onto the slippery banister and within a second, I was sliding down it. I resisted the childish pull to go 'wheeee'. I'm sure that if I did, I'd scare the crap out of the people downstairs. Hopping off the banister with a dopey grin on my face, I started walking again. The world looked dizzy, the after effect of the whole experience. That was when I bumped into someone before falling on my butt.
"Sorry, I didn't mean to."
Looking up, I noticed a guy or was it a girl, staring down at me.
"Hey, it's alright."
He reached out to me with his hand which I took happily as he helped me up. I smiled back at him, as he gave me an amused look. He was taller then me, and had shoulder length dark brown hair. His grey eyes sparkled as he looked down at me a little and grinned.
"I'm Nick," he said, shaking my hand heartily.

ColourPop's Lippie Stix are known for their high-impact performance and low prices, and the Matte X formula carries the banner. A matte lipstick for people who don't like matte lipstick, this is a lipstick worth getting to know!
Matte X is packaged like the rest of ColourPop's Lippie Stix, a slim tube that's easy to slip into a purse or bag. Where this lipstick sets itself apart is in how it feels. Matte X glides onto lips with no drag at all and feels remarkably lightweight. A single swipe results in super-saturated color; as advertised,the finish is truly matte.
Unlike many other matte formulas, this stays comfortable and pliable throughout the day. It doesn't bleed or emphasize lip lines, making it an excellent choice for those with drier lips who've avoided matte lipsticks because of the potential for this to happen.
Matte X lasts about five hours before fading to an even stain (less if you eat while wearing it). As far as color selection goes, at the time of this writing there are 15 shades, from vibrant reds to neutral browns to one stunning bold blue.
Note: Matte X does have a very light vanilla scent, but it fades quickly.
If you've been wanting to try the matte lip look but avoiding it because you're concerned it will dry out your lips, give Matte X Lippie Stix a try—and at this price, you can get more than one!
Cyclopentasiloxane, Caprylyl Methicone, Cyclohexasiloxane, Stearyl Methicone, Phenyl Trimethicone, Polyethylene, Methyl Methacrylate, Crosspolymer, Trimethylsiloxysilicate, Polyethylene, Lauryl Laurate, Microcrystalline Wax, Synthetic Beeswax, Paraffin, Glycerin, C12-16 Alcohol, Hydrogenated Lecithin, Palmitic Acid, Betaine, Momordica Grosvenori Fruit Extract , Mangifera Indica (Mango) Seed Butter, Persea Gratissima (Avocado) Oil, Hydrogenated Vegetable Oil, Butyrospermum Parkii (Shea Butter), Flavor, Tocopherol, Glycine Soja (Soybean) Oil [+/- Blue 1 Lake (CI 42090), Iron Oxides (CI 77491), Iron Oxides (CI 77492), Iron Oxides (CI 77499), Red 28 Lake (CI 45410), Red 6 (CI 15850), Red 7 Lake (CI 15850), Titanium Dioxide (CI 77891), Yellow 5 Lake (CI 19140), Yellow 6 Lake (CI 15985)].
*Note: Ingredients may vary based on individual shade/finish.
If you haven't heard of the makeup brand ColourPop yet, chances are you will soon. A favorite of beauty bloggers and fashion columnists, this Los Angeles-based makeup company has made a splash thanks to its seemingly endless offering of color products, bargain prices, and savvy use of social media. The brand certainly captured our attention, and we were glad it did!
ColourPop's sticking point is that the brand is something of an enigma in this age of instant information; very little is known about its owners and origins, save that its parent company is a brand called Seed Beauty. We also know that all aspects of its production are centered in the Los Angeles area (which is why the brand claims its turnaround in creating new products can be as short as a month).
At the time of this writing, ColourPop's focus is strictly on makeup, particularly eye, lip, and cheek-area products (there are no complexion products yet, like foundation). ColourPop's chief claim to fame, according to its website, is that it offers "luxury formulas at prices that won't break the bank." For the most part that description is, pardon the pun, right on the money!
The brand's signature products are their Super Shock Shadows, which feature a bouncy cream/powder texture, and as a whole perform brilliantly with an impressive color payoff, great wear, and a price that's right around $5 each. ColourPop also does well with its Super Shock Cheek blushes and highlighters, which have the same distinctive texture as the shadows.
Despite our obvious enthusiasm, not to say every product from ColourPop is top-tier. While most of its lip products are good, there are a few that didn't apply evenly and had haphazard performance. Overall though, this is a line that has quite a bit to offer, and with the biggest ticket item costing only $8, most can afford to try a few different options to see what they like best—and you're highly likely to find some bona-fide beauty bargains that outperform much more expensive makeup.
For more information, visit Colourpop.com or tweet them @colourpopco.
Note: The company does not provide a phone number on their website, but they do provide an email address and promise to reply to messages within 2 business days.

Congenital hypertrophy of the lateral fold of the hallux
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Congenital hypertrophy of the lateral fold of the hallux is a rare cutaneous condition of unknown pathology that present to newborns. The condition was "first described by Martinet et al. in 1984." This sometimes painful condition involves "an overgrowth of the soft tissue" that can partially cover the nail plate. The condition usually effects both extremities and the condition can later reverse spontaneously.[1]

Bottom Line
Hotel Catalonia Avinyo's dark red exterior pops against the traditional Spanish architecture surrounding it, infusing modern flair into the historical city. Inside, the hotel gives off an air of urban cool, with shades of gray and white, and black-and-white murals in the lobby and rooms. The 83 rooms feel contemporary, with light wood floors and the same gray and white decor, though some face a dark interior courtyard, or lack windows entirely. Guests looking for the full range of amenities won't find them -- there's just a small bar and small rooftop pool with few lounge chairs. The Catalonia Avinyo is centrally located, so it's a good choice for those looking to be in the Gothic Quarter on a budget.
