Rice Researchers Develop Thin-Film Battery for Portable, Wearable Electronics
Rich Hua stashed this in Science
Stashed in: Science!, History of Tech!, Innovation
Rice chemist James Tour and his colleagues have developed a flexible material with nanoporous nickel-fluoride electrodes layered around a solid electrolyte to deliver battery-like supercapacitor performance that combines the best qualities of a high-energy battery and a high-powered supercapacitor without the lithium found in commercial batteries today.
The new work by the Rice lab of chemist James Tour is detailed in the Journal of the American Chemical Society.
Their electrochemical capacitor is about a hundredth of an inch thick but can be scaled up for devices either by increasing the size or adding layers, said Rice postdoctoral researcher Yang Yang, co-lead author of the paper with graduate student Gedeng Ruan. They expect that standard manufacturing techniques may allow the battery to be even thinner.
In tests, the students found their square-inch device held 76 percent of its capacity over 10,000 charge-discharge cycles and 1,000 bending cycles.
Tour said the team set out to find a material that has the flexible qualities of graphene, carbon nanotubes and conducting polymers while possessing much higher electrical storage capacity typically found in inorganic metal compounds. Inorganic compounds have, until recently, lacked flexibility, he said.

William Frederick "Buffalo Bill" Cody poses on horseback in a camp for Buffalo Bill's Wild West Show. Cody wears a wide-brimmed hat and a buckskin coat with tassles and small beads sewn on it in a pattern that forms bands of flowers. He wears gauntlets on his hands. He also wears thigh boots, and his belt has a large, square buckle. He is mounted on a dark horse. The horse's bridle is decorated with shells. Lew Parker, a minstrel show manager and stage manager for the Wild West Show, is walking toward Cody from the left background, where several tents are set up. Five American flags hang from five poles on top of the tents in the background. A few men stand in the right background near a group of wagons.

Drew Estate Cigars
Drew Estate cigars embody the exotic, the eclectic, the unique and the boutique when it comes to offering a true variety throughout their portfolio of brands, such as Acid, Herrara Estelí, Liga Privada and Undercrown – just to name a few. Acid cigars are a wildly popular infused brand bursting with unmistakable flavored aromas and spices; while Liga Privada cigars and the Undercrown line offer a more traditional full-flavored, earthy Nicaraguan profile.

Acid by Drew EstatePrice Per Cigar:$1.40 - $13.6746 options available4 ReviewsStrength: FlavoredCountry: NicaraguaWrapper: Varies
Acid is one of the most unique cigars on the market. Manufactured in Nicaragua by Drew Estate, the Acid brand features a vast assortment of luscious aromatic blends. Rather than using traditional curing barns, Drew Estate cures tobaccos in what they refer to as "Aroma Rooms."

Herrera Esteli is a solid boutique cigar blended for Drew Estate by the towering figure, Willy Herrera. Drawing from a Cuban style of presentation and taste, Herrera Esteli pushes out creamy flavors with an underlying punch. A medium to full-bodied profile of toasted almonds, cedar, spices and pepper are supported with an approachable, faint sweetness. The 93-rated Herrera Esteli is handmade in Nicaragua with an Ecuador Habano wrapper over a rich pairing of Honduran binders and Nicaraguan filler tobaccos. The finish introduces a refined potency with a luscious aroma and woody room note. Herrera Esteli is destined to become a mainstay in the humidors of true connoisseurs, so order yours without delay!read more

These cigars boast a sweet, scrumptious flavor bouquet blessed with rich notes of earth, dark chocolate and espresso.read more
Java LattePrice Per Cigar:$7.47 - $10.558 options available1 ReviewStrength: FlavoredCountry: NicaraguaWrapper: Ecuador Connecticut
Thanks to the mad minds at Drew Estate, Rocky Patel's Java Latte is a wonderful concoction of sweet cream, mocha and a lovely buttery flavor with hints of coffee. These flavored beauts sell out pretty quickly so if you see them in-stock, don't hesitate to get yourself a box.read more

Liga Privada #9 is a rare treat from Drew Estate. Blended by the mastermind Jonathan Drew using 100% non-infused tobaccos, these cigars are capped off with dark, oily Nicaraguan wrappers.

Liga Privada T52 by Drew EstatePrice Per Cigar:$10.00 - $16.468 options available1 ReviewStrength: Medium-FullCountry: NicaraguaWrapper: Sungrown
Liga Privada T52 showcases a stalk-cut, Habano-seed wrapper grown in Ecuador. With the stalk-cut process, the tobacco plant is cut and hung in the aging-barn as a whole and the wrappers begin their fermentation process while still on the stalk. The result? Well, when paired with a Brazilian binder and Nicaraguan and Honduran filler blend (as is the case with the T52) it makes for a spicy, leathery cigar that develops tasty notes of coffee, cocoa, nuts and spice. Medium to full-bodied and full-flavored, this cigar is an another non-infused winner from Drew Estate.read more
Liga Undercrown by Drew EstatePrice Per Cigar:$6.15 - $10.556 options availableStrength: Medium-FullCountry: NicaraguaWrapper: San Andres
The story behind Liga Undercrown is that the rollers in their factory were smoking so many Liga Privadas that they had to be told to stop due to the scarce production and high demand. The workers developed a plan to use the same crop of excellent Nicaraguan and Brazilian tobaccos for the binder and fillers but used leaves from different primings and a different wrapper. They chose to use a dark Mexican San Andreas Negro which is just as visually appealing and much more available for use. This medium to full-bodied cigar is a real treat to smoke and is much more affordable than its Liga Privada counterpart.read more
Liga Undercrown Shade by Drew EstatePrice Per Cigar:$6.19 - $10.558 options available1 ReviewStrength: MediumCountry: NicaraguaWrapper: Ecuador Connecticut
The Undercrown blend was developed by Drew Estate as an alternative to the original Liga Privada, created from more abundant leaf primings for the purpose of increasing production. Handcrafted in Nicaragua, the Undercrown Shade features a medium-bodied profile of Indonesian, Dominican and Nicaraguan long-filler tobaccos enrobed in a silky Ecuador Connecticut wrapper. Notes of toasted white pepper, sweetened tea and nuts lead to a creamy finish. Fans of the Liga blends interested in a slightly milder, more approachable cigar will enjoy Liga Undercrown Shade.read more

Natural by Drew EstatePrice Per Cigar:$3.44 - $8.048 options availableStrength: FlavoredCountry: NicaraguaWrapper: Varies
To create the Natural brand, Jonathan "The Mad Scientist" Drew scoured the four corners of the earth for every rare variety of tobacco he could get his hands on. Once he felt that he had all that he needed, Drew returned to Nicaragua and began blending.

Anyone heard of COMMERCIAL ELECTRIC tools?
I'm doing electrical jobs for a few years now and all my hand tools are KLEIN (which cost a lot). Yesterday i was in Home Depot and noticed they are stocking up with this brand called COMMERCIAL ELECTRIC. They are cheaper than KLEIN but are they any good?
They all have handles very similar to KLEIN's JOURNEYMAN tools but green color. I did some research online but no stores sell it and there's no reviews of it. Couldn't even find it in Home Depot online store :wink:
I'm not going to give up my KLEIN but reason i'm asking about CE is because HD sells this set of CE which consists of a bag (pretty good looking gatta say) and buuuuuuuuunch of tools - a set of screwdrivers (including insulated ones), 4 nutdrivers, pliers, noseneedles, cable cutters........... for DIRT CHEAP - 59$ which is a looooot cheaper then getting same tools separate. Would be nice to have it as my "just in case" set.
Commercial Electric is Home Depot's brand. Look in the lighting section and you will see CE recessed lights, surface fixtures, and ceiling fans. If the tools are of the same quality as the fixtures, and I suspect they are, they are crap and should be avoided.
Once you feel klien in your hands, cheeper tools will not even be an issue.
never heard of them
I saw the same set of tools at the depot the other day and was thinking it looked too good to pass up, the color and style look a lot like Greenlee which just started turning out electrical hand tools
If they are made of decent steel how bad can they be for the price?
Well, once again i passed by this set in HD and finally gave in. lol.
first big turn off is that on one side of each tool (exept screw & nut drivers) it just says CHINA. I wish they had THAT side facing u when u buy the damn product :censored: !!!
Metal looks like it's not gonna last long when u put it to work everyday.
And as i found out yesterday handles aren't gonna last long either. I took a square tip screwdriver with me to work to test it out since i had to install a new panel, so i knew i'll use it all day. Well, after just one day's work green part of a handle started to come off of the black part. :no:
So to sum it up - KEEP USING YOUR KLEINs!
It's still a good set to have as "just in case" / "2nd set" or for house use just not for everyday abuse.
btw any feedback on GREENLEE hand tools?
I don't have too much Greenlee, but what I have is top notch.
Klien - great
My experience is, buy quality tools. This is not an area to scrimp.
I purchased my Kliens as pieces, 2 flat screwdrivers, 3 phillips, and 4 nut drivers 1/4 to 7/16. I also added a screw starter later when I had a job that reqired one. As electrical work is one job I do that can kill me I had no thoughts of the cost, which was not that bad.
Mine have an orange coating that turns white when its time to destroy and replace them. the size/type is on the butt end so they can be read if kept in the side pockets of my bag instead of inside getting banged up. And none have become maagnetic something I hadn't thought about, hence the screw starter.
Less then 200 bucks for 10 tools that wont let me down or get me hurt or killed sounds like a good deal to me.
Ive been searching for this tool set and cannot find it anywhere
I would have bought one of these if i had found out about them sooner
I used klein ever since and if someone's gonna pay me to use other products. I'll surely gonna give it back to them. :)

It doesn't seem fair that just as Scrubs 2.0 was coming into it's own that we have to say goodbye. I will admit that I was one of the skeptical ones at the beginning. Instead of being an extended version of Scrubs 1.0, it seemed more of an homage to crazy JD. What had once been a humorous look at the workings of a hospital it had turned into "What Crazy Thing Will JD Do?" Over the years the character of JD had gotten weirder and weirder and not in a good way. He had become a cheesy cardboard cut out of a character I had once loved dearly. And in Scrubs 2.0 we were gifted with the same character. Instead he was now a teacher and he was married to Elliott with a baby on the way. But had our dear JD finally grown up? Nope. He was still the same cheesy cutout he had always been. How disheartening was it to know that after all these years JD, Turk, Dr. Cox, Dr. Kelso, and the Todd were now cartoon characters? Instead of showing how much they had grown, they chose to bring the funny and bring it they did not.
That was until the Newbies began to get more screen time. Once that started to occur and the veterans were moved to supporting characters, Scrubs 2.0 finally began to show a little life. Oh sure the sound of Lucy's voice irritated me like no other and Cole's ghetto speak grated the nerves, but aside from that we granted access to four characters that if they had been given more time to breathe and stretch their wings they would have taken the show by storm. I understand why the first few episodes were Scrubs 1.0 redux. They had to find a way to keep their old fans from leaving considering they were the reason the show lasted as long as it did. Unfortunately it might have been this very desicion that flatlined the show from the beginning. We had seen those characters grow and move on and by bringing them back they were just making a mockery of the past eight seasons. The final scene in Season 8 when JD was picturing how his life was going to turn out was a beautiful and fitting way to end the series. So why bring them back in the ninth. We had made our peace with their leaving us. We had said our goodbyes and we were all ready to move on.
Although I am grateful that I had the priviledge to see an actress like Eliza Coupe and an actor like Michael Mosely spread their wings; I have a feeling this will not be the last we see of these two. I also can imagine Dave Franco gracing our screens in the future, in fact I wouldn't be surprised if some show from the CW isn't trying to woo him right now. If there is anyone out there who doubts that just take a look at his turn on Priveldged. He played a completely different character and pulled it off beautifully. Kerry Bishe is another one who I expect will find her way as well. The careers are not over for these young actors. No it's just beginning. Hopefully next time they will be able to find their way to a project that they will be able to call their own.
Well class I hope you enjoyed our sessions as much as I enjoyed writing them. Class dismissed.

Steve Carell is set to star in and produce The Priority List, a film based on David Menasche's memoir of living with brain cancer.
Carell, best known for his comedy work but increasingly finding his way into serious acting roles, will take on the part of the high school teacher who was diagnosed with a brain tumour in 2006, and who subsequently decided to get in touch with as many of his former students as possible.
Menache's book, whose full title is The Priority List: A Teacher's Final Quest to Discover Life's Greatest Lessons, saw the former teacher tour some 50 cities across the US. The title refers to his favourite teaching technique, which was to ask his students to rank concepts in order.
Rights to the book were bought by Warner Bros, but no details on who will direct have been released.

Major carriers apparently are legally obligated to throw some kind of desperate iPhone ploy onto the market, and Verizon has done its part now with the Voyager. The LG-made handset has a touchscreen, Web browser, sliding keyboard, faster data service than the iPhone, a 2-megapixel camera and a storage card slot that can handle up to 8GB.
Verizon Wireless Chief Marketing Officer Mike Lanman offered this modest forecast:
We think it'll be the best phone … this year. It will kill the iPhone.
Along with the top-end Voyager are two other phones with multimedia goodies–the slim, Samsung-made Juke and LG's sliding keyboard Venus. Prices will range from
$4100 $400 to $100, with launches in time for holiday shoppers to ignore them.

Canadians Divided On Direction Of Country, Yet Many Believe 'Golden Age' Lies Ahead: Poll
A new poll suggests while Canadians are split on the direction of this country, many remain optimistic that its best days are ahead.
Angus Reid Institute released numbers Thursday, just ahead of Canada's 149th birthday, revealing a mixed bag when it comes to attitudes in this country.
While Canadians are deeply proud of many aspects of their nation, economic anxieties appear to be making a sizable number of people gloomy about the future.

Forty-two per cent of Canadians said they were satisfied with the way things are going — while another 42 per cent said they were not.
Albertans were the most likely to say they were unhappy with the nation's path — with 48 per cent expressing dissatisfaction. That figure goes head-to-head with the 39 per cent who felt the opposite.
Quebecers are the most content lot in Canada right now, the poll suggests, with 52 per cent saying they were satisfied compared to 30 per cent who are dissatisfied.
And it appears young Canadians are the most hopeful for the future. Forty-eight per cent of respondents between the ages of 18 to 34 feel satisfied with the way things are going, while those over the age of 35 were more likely to report dissatisfaction.
The uneasy state of the economy appears to be driving pessimism in some places, as roughly four-in-ten said economic prospects are worse now than they were 25 years ago. A slim majority — 52 per cent — said they believe future generations will be worse off than Canadians today.
'Golden age' of Canada comparisons
But when asked what decade has been Canada's "Golden Age," many expressed optimism. The largest number of respondents — 23 per cent — said Canada's best days are yet to come.
Seventeen per cent of Canadians picked the 1970s as a "Golden Age" and 14 per cent chose the 1960s — both periods of big changes ranging from the introduction of an official policy on multiculturalism, advancement of women's rights, and a greater focus on equality.
And, regardless of feelings about the future, 70 per cent of Canadians said they plan to celebrate their country's birthday on July 1 in some way. Fewer than two-in-five Quebecers, however, told the Angus Reid Institute they will mark the occasion.
The online poll was conducted between June 13 to 16 among a representative sample of 1,519 Canadian adults who are part of the Angus Reid Forum. It has a margin of error of three percentage points, 19 times out of 20.
"We are a great country, and shall become one of the greatest in the universe if we preserve it; we shall sink into insignificance and adversity if we suffer it to be broken."
"We shall all respect the principles of each other and do nothing that would be regarded as an act of oppression to any portion of the people."
"I hate politics and what are considered their appropriate measures. I hate notoriety, public meetings, public speeches, caucuses and everything that I know of which is apparently the necessary incident of politics—except doing public work to the best of my ability."
"The one calamity above all others which stands before this country is that political division should follow the division of race or the division of religion."
"I hope the time is fast approaching in Canada when we shall never hear the question raised of a man's birth, or the creed that he professes. We live in a country and under a constitution in which every man has a right to act as his judgment dictates, or as his education leads him, upon matters of this very important character."
"Each little Province is a little nation by itself. "
"Two races share today the soil of Canada. These people had not always been friends. But I hasten to say it. There is no longer any family here but the human family. It matters not the language people speak, or the altars at which they kneel."
"Let us never forget the solemn truth that the nation is not constituted of the living alone. There are those as well who have passed away and those yet to be born. So this great responsibility comes to us as heirs of the past and trustees of the future. But with that responsibility there has come something greater still, the opportunity of proving ourselves worthy of it."
"Loyalty to the ballot box is not necessarily loyalty to the nation. Political captains in Canada must have courage to lead rather than servility to follow."
"A strong and dominant national feeling is not a luxury in Canada, it is a necessity. Without it this country could not exist."
"Canada: a land endowed by heaven with incalculable wealth. A people free and brave and strong with the strength that comes from the mountains and the prairies, the rivers and the sea."
"Our nation was planned as a political partnership of two great races. It was planned by men of vision, of tolerance, as a partnership in which both of the partners would retain their essential characteristics, their religion, their culture."
"I am a Canadian, free to speak without fear, free to worship in my own way, free to stand for what I think right, free to oppose what I believe wrong, or free to choose those who shall govern my country. This heritage of freedom I pledge to uphold for myself and all mankind."
"Whether we live together in confidence and cohesion; with more faith and pride in ourselves and less self-doubt and hesitation; strong in the conviction that the destiny of Canada is to unite, not divide; sharing in cooperation, not in separation or in conflict; respecting our past and welcoming our future."
"Canada will be a strong country when Canadians of all provinces feel at home in all parts of the country, and when they feel that all Canada belongs to them."
"This is a very complicated country. You have to understand it, you have to respect it, and I think our most successful prime ministers have been people who have drawn together the diversity of the country."
"In any democracy, there is always a tug-of-war between policies to achieve equality and policies to promote excellence. I am certain that Canada can achieve both equality and excellence."
"Canada must stand for the best in all fields of human endeavour. And we must be uncompromising in the pursuit of values that are the moral foundation of all great nations. That is my dream for my country: a Canada fair and generous, tolerant and just."
"In the... years of our common history, anglophones and francophones, Aboriginal peoples and new Canadians have shown that our political system, founded on the profound respect of differences and the sharing of fundamental values, is our most powerful tool of development."
"What we have built together in Canada is something very great and very noble. A country whose values of tolerance, understanding, generosity have made us what we are: a society where our number one priority is the respect and dignity of all our citizens."
"The people of Canada have worked hard to build a country that opens its doors to include all, regardless of their differences; a country that respects all, regardless of their differences; a country that demands equality for all, regardless of their differences."
"Canada must reflect the true character of its people. Honourable in our dealings. Faithful to our commitments. Loyal to our friends. By turns a courageous warrior and a compassionate neighbour. That is the spirit of the Canada I know."
UP NEXT: Canada's Longest-Serving PMs
On November 13, 2014 -- his 3,203rd day on the job -- Stephen Harper leapfrogged former PM (and fellow Conservative) Brian Mulroney to become the sixth longest-serving prime minister in Canadian history. But he still has a ways to go to catch the five former leaders ahead of him.

Environment Furniture
Environment Furniture, lead by CEO Davide Berruto, does modern impeccably well. Its pieces are sleek, but still warm and inviting, and all made from Earth-friendly materials. Based in Los Angeles, Environment hosts a beautiful showroom in the bustling Bowery neighborhood. The showroom houses a substantial amount of furniture constructed from Brazilian peroba rosa wood, reclaimed from buildings that have been torn down or abandoned. The lighter peroba is often paired with dunnage, a darker wood that comes from shipping crates and cargo. Upholstery on couches is assembled from surplus World War II army tents. And the major, cloud-like light fixture in the showroom is made out of Tyvek, an industrial all-weather fabric. But don't count on finding precisely those materials–they constantly change, depending upon what is available, sustainable, and interesting. Environment Furniture's design team, comprised mostly of Italian designers, is ever innovating on that front.Show lessRead moreLily Hines

What's All the Fuss About Canada's 2011 Long Form Census?
Categories: Genealogy in the News/Genealogy Updates
What's All the Fuss About Canada's 2011 Long Form Census?
Ever since the Conservative government announced late last month that they were scrapping the mandatory long census form for next year's census and replacing it with a voluntary national household survey, more and more ordinary Canadians representing various heritage, cultural and business groups have been expressing their concerns regarding the government's decision.
Here are some of the basic facts about the proposed changes to the 2011 Canadian Census:
- all Canadians will still receive a mandatory short census
While the proposed change theoretically means the long-form will reach more households, the fact remains that there is no guarantee that the response rate will be any better if the form is voluntary. There is fear among many organizations that the proposed change would mean less respondents answering the survey and providing less than accurate information.
To help readers sort through the issues and to follow the latest developments, here are some recommended links on the topic:
- Official Federal Government's Statement on the 2011 Census dated July 13, 2010
- Fraser's Institute Support for the Conservatives Plan
- Wikipedia entry "Canada 2011 Census"
- Gordon Watts' article "Federal Government Destroys Value of Future Census"
- Facebook group "Restore Canada's 2011 Long-Form Census"
This list is not comprehensive and does not indicate the Regina Public Library's official stance on the 2011 Canada Census. Merely this brief list is to help inform and educate our readers about the issue.

New Delhi, Dec.6 (ANI): French First Lady Carla Bruni on Monday said that she was quite surprised by her popularity in India, and added that she was looking forward to her four-day stay in the country.
Talking to ANI TV on the sidelines of a visit to the Safdarjung Hospital and the Naz Foundation here this morning, Bruni said: "I am quite surprised by my popularity in India. I did not expect it."
Bruni also said that as far as she was concerned, the visit to India was a very short one, and that she would love to return and stay for a longer period.
"It is just four days. I want to see more of this country. I would love to have the opportunity of visiting it again, for a longer time," she said.
She revealed that during her meeting with Congress president Sonia Gandhi today, she had talked about the Global Fund, an international financing institution that invests the world's money to save lives, especially victims afflicted with HIV/AIDS, tuberculosis and malaria, and her role as a brand ambassador for it.
She said that Gandhi had asked her about her role in the Global Fund and with other institutions supporting health causes.
To date, the Global Fund has committed 19.3 billion dollars in 144 countries to support large-scale prevention, treatment and care programs against these three diseases.
Asked why she saw the campaign against AIDS as being an important cause, Bruni told ANI that having lost her brother to AIDS, she is committed to all causes aimed at the prevention of AIDS.
Bruni said it is an issue close to her, and she felt being France's First Lady and popular with the masses, she had the platform to further her sincere efforts in combating this deadly disease.
"It is important to prevent AIDS. It is an issue close to me. My being in this position (French First Lady) and being popular with the people, helps me to speak about the dangers of HIV/AIDS, and what steps need to be taken to counter it," she said.
Bruni has been making sincere efforts to pursue these preventive campaigns in a low-key manner, and does not flaunt this aspect of her life. She also actively involved with the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation.
On Monday, she visited Safdarjung Hospital and the New Delhi-based Naz Foundation Trust, an NGO working on HIV/AIDS and sexual health.

The Dallas Mavericks are really bad this year. They've lost 23 games. Dirk Nowitzki is talking about possibly getting traded. Their experiment of mending on the cheap and waiting for a big free agent doesn't appear to be working. And, worst of all, they're going to miss the playoffs in a season when the West is pretty much wide open.
Understandably, Mark Cuban is mad. And when Mark Cuban gets mad, he doesn't shy away from letting people know about it.
Popular VideoSNL is not a fan of the Trump administration, and it shows with every new skit they produce. Do you think they need to tone it down?
This past weekend, after his team lost to the New Orleans Hornets, Cuban posed the following question to Twitter:
Im sorry NBA fans. Ive tried for 13 yrs to fix the officiating in this league and I have failed miserably. Any Suggestions ? I need help
Popular VideoSNL is not a fan of the Trump administration, and it shows with every new skit they produce. Do you think they need to tone it down?
— Mark Cuban (@mcuban) January 6, 2013
The league didn't take kindly to that. Cuban was fined $50,000 on Tuesday.
The good folks at Mashable did a bit of math on that seemingly hefty fine:
The $50,000 fine comes out to just over $367 per character for the 136-character tweet, but that's just chump change to Cuban, whose net worth tops $2 billion. It's the rough equivalent of a $1 fine for someone earning $40,000 per year.
No wonder Cuban spouts off so regularly.
(Kudos Mashable)

Not content with sinking sport and drowning music, this summer's Biblical deluges have taken a toll on literature. Last weekend, the English Heritage "Festival of History" at Kelmarsh Hall in Northamptonshire was due to host the shortlist announcement of the first Historical Writers' Association/Goldsboro Crown for a debut historical novel. The heavens opened; the festival never did; the writers went untrumpeted.
But history teaches us that culture can overcome nature – indeed, for those who take the gloomiest view of climate change, that might just be our problem. So the shortlistees deserve plaudits anyway: Ellen Bryson's The Transformation of Bartholomew Fortuno, set in the showbiz underworld of 19th-century New York; Amit Majmudar's Partitions, with its characters from different faiths torn apart by the division of India in 1947; Hallie Rubenhold's Mistress of my Fate, and its feisty adventuress galloping through the 1790s; Robert Wilton's The Emperor's Gold, which packs intrigue and conspiracy into the shadowy hinterland of Napoleonic war.
Ever since its revival around four decades ago, with John Fowles and JG Farrell in the vanguard, historical fiction has blossomed in Britain on every level from the cheerful Regency or Tudor romp to the high literary achievement of a Byatt or a Mantel. Its roots still need watering, though, which makes the award a welcome addition to the calendar (the winner will be unveiled on 20 September). Manda Scott, chair of the HWA and a judge, believes that "at least two" of the selection "should be on the Booker shortlist". Scott, whose "Rome" sequence has just reached its third volume (MC Scott, The Eagle of the Twelfth; Bantam), thinks "The fact that they are debut novels is little short of miraculous and should kill forever the petty sniping that says historical novels… can't, by definition, have literary merit."
Historical fiction escapes the critical taint of "genre" pretty swiftly as soon as an author with prestige in the reputation bank chooses to practise it. Over the next two months, Jeanette Winterson will revive the Pendle witch trials of 1612 (The Daylight Gate), while both Will Self and Pat Barker explore the First World War and its aftermath (Umbrella; Toby's Room); Ian McEwan revisits the bohemian, and espionage, milieux of the early 1970s (Sweet Tooth), and Rose Tremain returns to the Restoration (Merivel: a man of his time).
No one would dream of marking such heavyweights down for a period setting. And neither should any historical novelist pay a critical penalty. But McEwan's choice of epoch raises a tantalising question: where, or rather how recently, does historical fiction begin? The new award comes up with a thought-provoking answer. Eligible titles must have "all or most of their narrative firmly rooted at least 35 years prior to the date of publication".
In other words, a significant proportion of readers will have no first-hand adult knowledge of the period. That makes a kind of intuitive sense. And the mere lapse of time does not by itself make an era more or less familiar. The British 1970s are a case in point. Myths, clichés and downright fibs about those years proliferate: Life on Mars, indeed. We often get a clearer picture of reality in Augustus's Rome.
Whatever the century that writers select, one factor seems to speed their success. The age must carry unfinished business into the present: disputed interpretations of big events; major upheavals in the state of scholarship; parallels or analogies that tempt us to look into history as (Barbara Tuchman's phrase) "a distant mirror". Of course, in clumsy hands that leads to howling anachronisms; but in skilful ones, to a fertile dialogue between then and now. Over 40 years, the much-missed Barry Unsworth staged just such a conversation with the dead, and with the past. Let's hope that the HWA/Goldsboro Crown will find his successors.
Does updated Jane lack a man's hand?
If a portion of the proceeds of every Austen-themed stunt went to a worthy cause - say, the Memorial Trust which runs Chawton House museum in Hampshire - then the Janeites would be very rich indeed. HarperFiction, for instance, has a series of Austen updates scheduled. Joanna Trollope's modern Sense and Sensibility is due late in 2013, followed by Curtis Sittenfeld's Pride and Prejudice and - the latest commission - Val McDermid's Northanger Abbey. But why this crude gender apartheid? I'd love to read McEwan's Mansfield Park, Faulks's Emma and Hollinghurst's Persuasion.
Barnes breaks his Booker silence
Next week will see the Man Booker long-list made public, with one dead cert already. Sir Peter Stothard and his fellow judges will do much better in their picks than last's year's eccentric and under-powered miscellany. Meanwhile, the Man Booker Prizes (let's not forget the admirable biennial International award) have upgraded their website for the all-singing, all-dancing, and all-tweeting social-media age. Very good it looks as well, not least the video interviews with Booker laureates. Now we can even hear, and see, Julian Barnes in conversation about last year's winner, The Sense of an Ending, with Man's media chief David Waller. That's a bittersweet pleasure for me, given that Barnes – a literary journalist of long standing himself – refused the usual interviews with mere hacks in the wake of his win. Does he feel more affinity with hedge-fund PR managers these days?

text: Not a surprising pairing, considering they've been out that way on DVD for 6 months...a pattern to keep in mind. Those Warner double features are great deals IMO, I have a lot of them, and as suggested they "encourage" you to watch a film you might not have otherwise. OTOH, some of them have one great film and one IMO real (but vaguely related) dud, but the price is reasonable and often it's little more than for one title anyway.

Minds, Machines and Gödel
Minds, Machines and Gödel is J. R. Lucas's 1959 philosophical paper in which he argues that a human mathematician cannot be accurately represented by an algorithmic automaton. Appealing to Gödel's incompleteness theorem, he argues that for any such automaton, there would be some mathematical formula which it could not prove, but which the human mathematician could both see, and show, to be true.
The paper is a Gödelian argument over mechanism.
Lucas presented the paper in 1959 to the Oxford Philosophical Society. It was first printed in Philosophy, XXXVI, 1961, then reprinted in The Modeling of Mind, Kenneth M. Sayre and Frederick J. Crosson, eds., Notre Dame Press, 1963, and in Minds and Machines, ed. Alan Ross Anderson, Prentice-Hall, 1964, ISBN 0-13-583393-0.

I recently bought a WD TV Live HUB and added avi movies, which I had a back up copy on a windows 7 PC. The PC has crashed and I can not get by back up copies off of it. Is there a way for me to extract them onto another external hard drive from my wd TV hub? I also just got a my book live which I just set up..Any idea's how I can back up my movies from the hub?
Thanks, looking forward to hearing from you all, Carol
Either connect the external drive to the Hub and copy across from Hub to external that way.
Or network a working PC to the Hub again and attach the external drive to that and copy that way, option 1 will be faster though.
Thanks for the info, will try it when I get home.

Marathons are often surprisingly unpredictable, but while there were a couple of big surprises at the 33rd edition of the Osaka International Women's Marathon, what was most surprising was how predictable three of the big results were.
One surprise was how aggressively Poland's Karolina Jarzynska took the race out. With a best of just 2:26:45, Jarzynska pushed the first half through in 1:11:30 and by 30 km had a lead of 12 seconds as she clocked a 1:42:22 split. Not too surprisingly, she tied up in the final 12 km and dropped to 3rd but was rewarded for taking her shot with a new PB of 2:26:31, just short of a new national record.
Two of the predictable elements came from the two women who ran her down. For the third time, Ukrainian national record holder and defending champion Tetiana Gamera-Shmyrko rocked the Osaka course with the fastest second half and final 2.195 km in the field to take her second Osaka win, coming from 42 seconds behind at halfway to win by 1:23 in 2:24:37, exactly as predicted. It's amazing that she and virtually every other Eastern European woman to win in Japan over the last five years has been able to execute the identical strategy virtually every time. Chalk it up to superior planning.
Almost equally predictable, in her final marathon, talk of a return to the Gold Coast Marathon notwithstanding, 2011 Osaka Women's winner Yukiko Akaba (Team Hokuren) ran up front through the first half of the race, faded after halfway, turned it on to overtake the lead, then came up short of closing for the win as she landed in 2nd in 2:26:00. It was a familiar pattern seen throughout her marathon career, one which more often than not landed her on the podium but even more often than not left her outside the winner's circle. Akaba was largely responsible for making it an interesting race, relentlessly sparring with Jarzynska and Gamera-Shmyrko when their orbits coincided and was all smiles through most of the race, showing that although she couldn't quite grab hold of the gold, she was leaving with no bad feelings about what she has accomplished.
Most predictably, and most sadly, 2012 Osaka winner Risa Shigetomo (Team Tenmaya), who made the all-time Japanese top ten with her 2:23:23 win to make the London Olympics and was in great shape through this ekiden season, ran up front against Jarzynska and Akaba through 15 km before plummeting to a 64th-place finish in 2:58:45, her second time in her last three marathons to finish slower than 2:50. What makes it predictable and sad is that it is the identical pattern so many other Tenmaya athletes have gone through before. Head coach Yutaka Taketomi, who has enjoyed a tenure as director of Japanese women's marathoning post-Beijing, has an undisputed record as Japan's best coach at getting women to 2:21~2:23 in their first two marathons and on to Olympic teams and is equally and unequivocally Japan's worst coach when it comes to what to do next. When one or two athletes never live up to their potential it might be bad luck, but when it happens predictably every time it's something else. Some day a talented young woman may step up and break the curse of Tenmaya, but that day was not today.
Coming right after the news of the brilliant Hitomi Niiya's premature retirement it could have been a day dark as the clouds that blew through Osaka, but there was one unexpected ray of luminescence to give a little hope to Japanese women's marathoning. Bukkyo University ace Sairi Maeda, 22, quietly coming in to Osaka for her pre-graduation debut off a 30 km win in Osaka late last year, sat far back in the field through the first half. Two and a half minutes behind at halfway, she began to turn it on after 25 km and rolled all the way up to 4th, negative splitting to finish in 2:26:46 just shy of the fading Jarzynska. Maeda's time was a new national university record, a full five minutes faster than the old record of 2:31:46 set 18 years ago by Kozue Matsumoto (Chuo Univ.) and, with Akaba set to retire leaves her with a good chance of being named to the Japanese team for this year's Asian Games marathon. Maeda is set to join the Daihatsu corporate team post-graduation where her training partners will include Moscow World Championships marathon 4th-placer Ryoko Kizaki, as good a place as any for Maeda to develop into a future hope.
In Osaka's accompanying half marathon, Osaka policeman Noriyuki Nabetani was the surprise victor over corporate runners Yudai Yamakawa (Team Otsuka Seiyaku) and Satoru Kitamura (Team Nissin Shokuhin), winning in 1:03:55 to mark one of the fastest times in the last ten years of the event's history. 2011 Tokyo Marathon winner Noriko Higuchi (Team Wacoal) won the women's race in 1:12:44 as she works toward April's Boston Marathon. 2010 winner Yuri Kano (Team Shiseido) was 4th in 1:16:12.

text: Optimizing the game schedule of a sports league is a very complex problem; known as the traveling tournament problem. In a real situation; the problem includes many intangible constraints that are hard to quantify. Also; the objective function is quite fuzzy. In this presentation; we will compare the âtheoreticalâ traveling tournament problem with a real instance. Further; we will sketch how the problem is solved today; discuss potentials for optimization; and outline how we have helped a major sports league to optimize their planning.

What's going on here? I thought to myself, feeling unexpectedly violated.
Bella? Can you hear me! The voice was excited, it seemed. Should I answer it? I wondered, careful to keep the thought to myself.
Yes, I finally decided to myself and his voice. He sighed.
Thank God, Bella. I was beginning to think I was going crazy.
Me too, I agreed, feeling somewhat relieved. Then it finally began to sink in that I was talking to my Father through my mind.
What the heck is going on here! Is this real? How is it possible?
I don't know, he replied, his voice depressed. I waited. He said nothing and I sighed, frustrated.
Well, are you real? Not just a figment of my imagination? I heard laughing, and I could almost picture him sitting at our kitchen table, laughing at something riduculous I had just told him, his bushy mustache jumping up and down. I smiled at the joyful thought.
Yes, Bella. I am real. No, I have absolutely no idea how this is happening, I guess we're just tuned to each other. I gasped. What? Honey, what is it? I had thought about this before. When I had the pain caused by Charlie. I thought maybe we knew each other more than we thought. For some reason, I could feel Charlie. Like I knew what his emotions were, what he was thinking. Maybe I had been right. Maybe we did get each other more than Father and Daughter.
Then another thought occurred to me. Even in this new state of life, we were blood father and daughter. Carlisle and Esme weren't Edward's (it hurt to even think his name) real parents. Just his adopted parents. But Charlie and I...
Yes, that would make sense! Charlie exclaimed, understanding my view. I grinned. If this was true, then we both had another power. I froze. If this was true, we could find them. I could simply listen to Charlie's directions and then-
Absolutely not, Bella.
What? Why not? I whined, feeling like a kid who isn't allowed to have his candy before dinner. What was so wrong with the plan?
It's too dangerous. I can't let you do this.
But I would bring everyone with me! If we caught them by surprise, we could take them down and save you! I felt euphoric by the genius idea, but he didn't budge.
No, Bella.
Dad, come on, I insisted. I could slowly seeing the route to where they were hiding forming in his mind, and I scurried for a pen and paper. But as quickly as it had appeared, it vanished.
Dad! This was unbelievable. It was almost like he didn't want to be saved.
It's not that Bella, I-it's complicated. I heard a door slam loudly through his mind. Then he gasped and his breathing started to stand up. I knew something bad was happening.
Dad, what's going on? Nothing. Dad!
Bella, I have to go. I can't- I need to focus. They'll see that we're communicating.
Wait, Dad! Just for another second. I could still sense him, though he was fading away fast. I blurted out the question without thinking.
Is he still alive? There was nothing coming to me, and I thought I had lost the connection. That, or Charlie still hated, I gulped, Edward, enough to not care if he survived.
But then the word passed through his mind, as silent as a whisper, so small that it was hard to find.

The Q&A Without the DVD
Director and producer commentaries have become de rigueur in the DVD industry, but why hadnt anyone thought of doing one live and in person? Leave it to the guys at Miami World Cinema Center, the Knight Foundation-backed nonprofit dedicated to promoting indie film in Miami, to bring in Hollywood producer Randall Emmett (Rambo, Day of the Dead, Righteous Kill) to talk an audience through a screening of his 2007 film, 88 Minutes, starring Al Pacino. The Miami-born and bred Emmett will dish the secrets hes learned producing 50 movies in the past ten years and then will screen a never-before-seen interview with Pacino, followed by the unreleased dailies from his new film, Streets of Blood, starring Val Kilmer, Sharon Stone, and 50 Cent.
The night ends with a Q&A and the opportunity to find out if the rumor about 50 Cent giving Val Kilmer a 65 Chevy Impala on the set of Streets of Blood is true.

"Think before you act and think before you post." warned Jefferson Forest High School senior, Cayman Morris, at the first ever peer-to-peer educational presentation presented by JFHS's Cyber S.W.A.T. Team.
The future is terrifying for nearly every teenager.
The Liberty High School Theatre Department, under the direction of Shayna Crews, continues to expand its offerings.
This Tuesday, Nov. 15 at 7 p.m., the department will present Autumn on Stage which will feature a one-act play and choreographed selections performed by the Liberty High School Dance Ensemble. The presentation will be held in the LHS auditorium.
The one-act play, "Girl Town," is the school's entry for the 2016 VHSL One-Åct Play competition.
Bedford County's board of supervisors scrapped the idea of hiring a consultant to develop a tourism plan, Monday night.
The meeting began with April Cheek-Messier, president of the National D-Day Memorial Foundation, delivering a plea for the supervisors to hire a tourism director.
For the fourth time in seven years, Bedford County Public Schools has had one of its teachers named Region V Teacher of the Year.
Liberty High School social studies teacher Crystal DeLong learned she had won the honor at a surprise announcement in the school's library. Many of her students were there to show their support.
Bedford County Public School age residents may not be ready to go back to school, but the schools are ready for them when school opens this Monday, Aug. 15.
Thursday night, various school division department heads briefed school board members on the schools' readiness.
A report of mixed results from the first year of a pilot program on personalized learning came as no surprise to Bedford County Public Schools Superintendent Dr. Douglas Schuch.
"The report for the school board (last month) was the public side of it," Dr. Schuch said this week. "We've been monitoring the progress for really the past year."
Bedford County Public Schools has introduced several changes in administrative positions, including a new principal at Moneta Elementary School, Shawn Trosper, who is taking over for Melanie Simmons who has taken a position with the Central Office.
In order to stay within budget, the Bedford County School Board decided to go with a new gymnasium at Liberty High School that will have seating for 1,230.
After a one year hiatus, Claytor Nature Study Center day camps are back. The center is offering week-long summer day camps each week, starting May 30 and running through July 1.
According to Dr. Greg Eaton, the center's director, the camps are divided up into two age groups. Nature Makes Sense for rising first graders to rising third graders and Virginia Safari, for rising fourth graders through rising sixth graders.
