New Building Could Lead to Research Breakthroughs
The ribbon has been cut and the doors opened for a new biomedical sciences building at the University of Florida.
The scientists working there say the facility is unique because it combines researchers from three colleges under one roof.
And by working together in the same facility, scientists believe it will take their research to new heights.
University of Florida president Bernie Machen says this new biomedical sciences building on Center drive in Gainesville has been in the works for 10 years... And was much-needed.
"We brought in over 570 million last year and we're going to bring in over 600 million this year. That's people to make this thing work
Machen, along with health care officials, cut the ribbon at a dedication for the new building today.
The facility brings together researchers and students from the colleges of medicine, engineering and public health and health professions to bridge the world of engineering and biomedical science.
"It really helps us promote the translation between discovery in lab to the bedside and to the community where people live so health can be improved," said David Guzick, President of UF and Shands Health System.
Guzick says there's several types of research that can benefit from bringing the engineering and biomedical sciences worlds together... like diabetes and alzheimers research…in hopes of developing improved therapies for patients.
And that's what we're told makes this building special... With a goal of thinking differently to help the community.
The biomedical sciences facility is over 160-thousand square feet and cost about 90 million dollars to build.

Stockholm, Sweden (rushPRnews) 03/29/12 — As proven by myriad social media platforms, the general public love to give their opinions, as well as hear the opinion of others, on news stories big or small, and according to global provider of smart solutions for gaining market intelligence, Cint, to encourage following, loyalty and online engagement, other media platforms should follow suit and gauge public opinion more frequently.
Portraying public opinion makes readers feel more aligned with the news story at hand and as a result they will be more likely to remain loyal to the publication. A further advantage for online titles in particular is that it will also encourage user generated content, with readers more likely to leave comments giving their opinion and feedback – which in some cases could start an online debate.
Despite the many advantages, certainly with breaking news stories, many media platforms don't obtain insight from the public as traditionally doing so has simply taken too long. However, advances in survey technology now mean that opinion can be gauged quickly, easily and cost-effectively.
Cint Access is a DIY market research tool which allows users to perform consumer research and deploy an online survey in less than seven minutes. Cint Access also provides the ability to reach out to industry-defined panels which comprise of over seven million people in more than 50 countries.
Bo Mattsson, CEO of Cint, commented: "Public opinion plays a vital and powerful role in many circumstances such as during the general elections for example, but in others, despite the additional impact it creates on the reader, it seems to get overlooked. Gathering opinion is now quicker than ever before with snap-polls being able to be untaken and the results published in a matter of hours. Furthermore, as well as Cint Access, advances in smartphone technology now allow users to have quick and accurate access to real opinions wherever the recipient may be meaning that even with breaking news stories, the media can add a new dimension to their stories."
Cint empowers access to opinions by innovating the way market insight is gathered. For more information, please visit www.cint.com.

Hi everyone
Well im sure you have all seen my posts - basically over the past year under my eyes have been hollowing out and when i smile my cheeks push up and create a horrible fold under my eyes.
I had been to three different surgeons who all stuck me with botox which did NOTHING but make it worse- i am only 29!
Yesterday i had my first dose of Juverderm XC with the licodaine in it - the needles when they went in hurt but then i couldnt feel the 'whoosh' of filler so that was nice - although being so close to my eyes freaked me out!
I had one vial under both eyes and a small dash in a smile line and yes i do have brusing under one eye which i covered with makeup this morning - still is a bit swollen.
So i might get more filler when i get back but she didnt want to go further and inject more when i was swelling alot. I am a bit dissapointed i have to get more BUT the lines have definately softened!

11 Reasons Why Art Is Better Through Collaboration
All right stop. Collaborate and listen. Don't miss more cool collaborations happening at Make Our Mark, a public art project made possible by Levi's®.
1. Because: The more, the merrier.
In 2010, graff writers Barry McGee and Josh Lazcano (aka Amaze), took on the ambitious task of covering an entire wall with as many celebrated graff signatures as they could fit. The result: History, beauty, and pure collaboration.
2. Because: Everybody sticks together.
All right, so maybe it's a little gross, but the Market Theater Gum Wall is a local landmark in downtown Seattle. This vibrant and germ-filled sight is on Post Alley under Pike Place Market.
3. Because: The more shots we take, the greater our chances are of a bullseye.
Every visitor to Yayoi Kusama's Obliteration Room is first handed a sheet of brightly colored stickers. There are no rules from that point on. The once white walls are now beautifully covered with brilliant polka-dotted colors and designs.
4. Because: Many hands don't always make light work.
The Names Project is an enormous, ever-evolving quilt memorializing and celebrating the lives of individuals lost to AIDS around the world. This giant project travels the world to raise awareness and educate.
5. Because: Every voice deserves to be heard.
The Sketchbook Project is a global, crowd-sourced art project and interactive, traveling exhibition of handmade books. Artists young and old can contribute to and peruse this unique collection of twin-bound beauty.
6. Because: Like love, art knows no boundaries.
Romantics flock to the Pont de l'Archevêché bridge in Paris to secure their love in everlasting Master Lock matrimony.
7. Because: Nothing comes sailing by itself.
Anderson Dock in Door County, Wisconsin is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Boaters and visitors are encouraged to continue with the tradition of "signing" the warehouse walls with the boat name and the year(s) they docked there.
8. Because: A life without love is like a sunless garden.
Oscar Wilde's kiss-covered tomb is located in Père Lachaise Cemetery, Paris.
9. Because: It doesn't always take one to know one.
Selfless Portraits is a collaborative art project aiming to bridge the gap between technology and humanity by encouraging small, creative gestures between strangers across the globe. See a stranger. Draw their picture. Be happy.
10. Because: A thousand pictures is worth an insane amount of words.
The Glocal Project is an experiment in mass collaboration hosted on the image sharing site Flickr.
11. And because: Together we can do so much.
"When the Beach Met the Bay" is a public sculpture built by L.B. KIDS from over 25,000 Plastic Caps that were collected after Hurricane Sandy.

- - Aleksander Emilianenko vs Tim Sylvia. . . . (http://www.mmaforum.com/ufc/1268-aleksander-emilianenko-vs-tim-sylvia.html)
Aleksander Emilianenko vs Tim Sylvia. . . .
Sylvia would get KTFO'd . . . . . it would be lights out for that polio legged bastard in a heart beat if ever stepped in with Aleksander, because i firmly believe Aleksander's striking is far more supirior's to any other heavyweight around the world. . . .other then the man who knocked him out. . . Cro Cop, and maybe Arlovski. . . . but God how i would love to see Sylvia get KTFO'd by Aleksander. . . .
Yeah, Aleks would take him out. Tim would loose his reach advantage and Aleks is a really good boxer with very fast hands. I would say Aleks by ko in round 2.
hey dont forget older brother fedor- either of which would kick sylvias
skinny legged ass from here to china- for that matter any pride fighter
would dominate that poor excuse for a mma fighter pride heavies rule
big time--
hahaha thats what probably all of you said when AA fought him to.
No ones gives Sylvia the credit he really deserves.
This would be a great match for both fighters. Sylvia proved he can handle a Sambo specialist in the AA fights. Though i do not like Sylvia in any form, he is a winner. He fights boring and only is good at striking. But Aleksander can take some good shots and I think should win by decision. But we all know the UFC judges would give the decision to the title holder.
Thats what ive been sayin of sylvia all along, but then again his last fight was pretty weak
It would be a stand up boxing match since both are one heck of strikers. But Emelianenko would end up pounding him to the ground. Even Aleksander could beat Tim. Imagine what Fedor could do to Tim.
aleks would ko sylvia in the first round hes 6'6 and has long as arms, so sylvia wouldnt have the big reach advantage...aleks striking is friggin sick i think if he faught crocop again he could take him, that kick he got rocked wit would have knocked out an elephant, i mean it happens people get knocked out...but this kid is the real deal hes only like 24-25..by the time hes fedors age he might rule the mma world(that is if fedor retires of course)..he sjust gotta improve his ground game a lil bit and get sum better submission defense and he'll be nasty, what am i saying he already is...sorry to all you sylvia fans, ALL FIVE OF YOU :laugh: ..but this wouldnt be too good of a fight, emeilanenko's striking is just better than tim's

Need Appliance Repair Help? Ask a Technician for Answers ASAP
My name is XXXXX XXXXX I am an authorized LG service tech and I can help you today
The oe error is for a miscommunication between the drain motor and main control board. It can mean several things though for your model machine. In most cases it is for a kinked or blocked drain hose. And for the machine not draining out like in your case.
First thing I would do is check for a kinked or blocked drain hose. If the hose is kinked or blocked it will gove you the no drain and eo error code.
Hello There, how are you?
doing ok . so would hitting it with air first would be ok ? might even get lucky?
No I would refrain from hitting it with air back into the machine. There is a check valve on the drain line just before the pump. If you blow compressed air back into the machine you will damage the check valve and water will run back intot he machine constantly.
I would check the drain hose then pull the machine out and remove the lowrr access panel and remove the drain hoses and drain pump to check there. Also check for any loose wires to the drain pump. Now obviously if there is still water left int he machine you will have to bail it out first before removing the hoses.
a wet dry vac works best and easiest to get all the water out quickly.
if there are no loose wires to the drain motor and no hoses are kinked or blocked with any debris after checking then you will have to ohm out the drain motor. It should be within 20-40 ohms. If it is not with in range then replace the drain motor.
can it be blocked from the top side or is this likely a pump issue
That is how I would go about checking this error and no drain. I know it may seems thorough but that is what you have to do to check this properly.
what do you mean blocked from the topside?
I would check the drain hoses and drain motor and you will know for sure what the problem is.
inside the machine,say as if food blocked the hole or is that not likely.
does the machine wash well? and does the sump motor send water to the wash arms? if it does then it is not likely that food is stuck int he pump causing the no drain.
when you get to the customers house check this first.
put four glasses in the top rack in either corner of the rack. And stand them upright so they can catch and fill up with water.
put the cups in the rack and set the dish for a normal cycle and let it start to fill as normal. Then let it wash for about a minute. then open the door and check to see how full the glasses are.
if they are full at least half way or more the sump is not the problem. if it is not full at least half way then yes, i would also check the sump for any clogs.
I believe your main concerns is going to be the no drain issue. and you will have t check the drain motor and hoses.
If you run into any troubles please feel free to get back to me here and I will help you more.
you the man . i think i have the bullets in my gun now . i appreciate the help
If you need parts please come back to me here as well and I will get you that info.
you are the man! and you are very welcome. I am here for you if you need me again.
thanks again
Please remember to rate my performance positively below this chat now with ok service or better rating. And if you have more questions after rating me please come back to me here and I will help you more for no additional charge.
you got it.

List, of, prosCONS
List, of cons
"Shiva Rea Daily Energy" offers a smorgasbord of customizable segments for intermediate and advanced yoga students who want a program that can fit into their busy schedules. Reviewers also appreciate the ability to choose either energizing and relaxing workouts, and they say the DVD boasts beautiful sets and music. But the advanced moves and lack of modifications mean this isn't the best option for beginners.Instruction
Free-flowing style isn't for everyone. California-born Shiva Rea started studying yoga as a teenager and is now one of the best-known yoga instructors in the country. Rea's fluid style is on full display in "Shiva Rea Daily Energy," and experts say she even calls for "improvisational undulations." This can be potentially freeing or awkward, depending on your expectations -- as one reviewer puts it, "I've had some hippy dippy classes, but … I felt kind of ridiculous in my own basement." Rea also provides a good deal of the spiritual and mind commentary that can turn off some viewers. Others had a hard time focusing on the breathing flow, saying it's hard to follow or is a distraction from the poses.Pros
Top-notch production values. "Shiva Rea Daily Energy" is filmed indoors in a colorful studio, and reviewers say the music and voice-overs are calm and soothing. In fact, one user says the music "sometimes makes me a little drowsy." The voice-overs can be turned off. This Vinyasa Flow program is meant to provide variety rather than a specific focus; users can choose a relaxing "lunar practice" or a more energetic "solar practice" that make the program ideal for various times of day. Taken together, the poses help promote strength and flexibility, reviewers say.
Build your own program. One highlight of "Shiva Rea Daily Energy" is the easy-to-use DVD menu. Participants can select one of the 20-minute segments for a shorter workout session or use the menu "matrix" to create a custom routine. This option is great for those who need a time-saving workout, and it keeps the DVD interesting after several uses. But the program is best for intermediate and advanced students, reviewers say. Many complain Rea's cuing is too sparse for those looking for detailed instruction. Plus, she moves quickly between poses and doesn't demonstrate easier variations. "It would've been nice to have someone in the background doing the easier poses so I didn't feel like such a failure during this DVD," complains one viewer.
1. Amazon.com
Shiva Rea: Daily Energy -- Vinyasa Flow Yoga, Contributors to Amazon.com, As of April 2014
"Shiva Rea Daily Energy" earns 4.2 stars out of 5 in more than 220 reviews. Most users love the mix-and-match nature of the DVD. Some say the poses are quite challenging, even for those with yoga experience, and beginners say Rea moves too quickly without providing enough instruction.

Reviewing Shiva Rea Daily Energy DVD, Bonny Pfiester, Not Dated
Fitness expert Pfiester says "Shiva Rea Daily Energy" is a "good fit for people with busy lifestyles" because of its flexibility. Variety means students won't get bored, and moves are challenging. But the program lacks modifications and may not be good for beginners, she says.

The Best Yoga DVDs, Editors of More, Not Dated
More's editors say "no one does yoga like Shiva Rea," and praise "Daily Energy's" flow and fluidity. They say the DVD is best enjoyed by someone who likes improvising some movements, and they like the variety of energizing and relaxing segments. The review does not note any cons.

Ship It Holla Ballas!: How a Bunch of 19-Year-Old College Dropouts Used… (edition 2013)
by Jonathan Grotenstein, Storms Reback
Work details
Ship It Holla Ballas!: How a Bunch of 19-Year-Old College Dropouts Used the Internet to Become Poker's Loudest, Craziest, and Richest Crew by Jonathan Grotenstein
No current Talk conversations about this book.
Luck delivered this paperback into my hands when I won a giveaway on Twitter; it was not one I normally would have pulled off the shelf. It's a book you can read with virtually no poker knowledge at all, just substituting "extreme good luck" and "extreme bad luck" at appropriate points. Mainly I kept with the reading as a sort of reference to a set of characters I know I wouldn't meet in person if I were given a thousand years, because the kinds of things that motivate them never matched those that I followed. I found it instructive as a student of human nature to take a look at people who drive themselves so single-mindedly adopting means and chasing a goal that none of the rest of us would select. Still, I completely understand the fascination that follows the prodigal, even in this case
As usual I received this book from GoodReads as part of a giveaway. Also as usual, despite the very kind and generous consideration of getting a free book, I give my candid opinions below.
The subtitle really sums it up pretty nicely. A group of kids from different parts of the country get hooked on online poker, do nothing but play all day for years and make a ton of money doing it. They live decadent lifestyles, learn some key life lessons (or don't) and finally end up happy (or not). Think bildungsroman with computers, gambling and lots of illegal mind-altering substances.
The writing in this little bit of non-fiction is merely sufficient; it's readable and can be consumed in a handful of determined hours. There's nothing particularly gripping about the whole thing except the anticipation of some explosive failure on the part of our protagonists as you either cheer for their success or their comeuppance. The book provides us with a view of a subculture we'd normally not get to see and paints an intimate enough portrait to keep the reader engaged.
I will spare my own reader the rather obvious and easily anticipated rant that I could go into about children gambling illegally and engaging in all manner of idiotic behavior, though as an adult it's hard not to have one's mind wander there. There is quite a bit of anthropological value to be found in these pages to be sure but it sets a rather poor example.
Pondering to whom I could recommend this book, I do have some difficulty finding a target for it. Most adults will doubtless be rather put off by the various irresponsible shenanigans demonstrated and I would be terrified for any teenager who reads it for fear that they will view this as an example to be emulated. The book lacks any of the technical detail that would make it interesting to either the mathematically inclined or the gambling addict. It can be assumed, at least, that those who were caught up in the now defunct gambling craze of the mid-2000s might be interested.
In summary, the book is a well-constructed view of society gone amok. It has, I suspect, a fairly narrow range of appeal and should be kept out of the hands of impressionable children. There is some very small bit of moral to our story but it fades rather quietly behind the glitz of $200 bottles of liquor and generally decadent lifestyle choices.
If I was someone with a bigger interest in gambling I would have given this book five stars. The story is the fascinating chronicle of a group of under twenties who strike it rich in the world of internet poker. It is told from the point of view of several young men who become wealthy and even somewhat famous for their gambling acumen before these sites were banned in the United States. For me the main interest is how money affects these guys on a personal level. Many are still active in the Las Vegas gambling world today. If I was rich and 19 again I would probably have reacted much in the same way they did. The book is a study of the invincibility of youth or a least that perception that young people have about their lives. Great read!.

ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. – Freshman Kevin Taylor fell in the
championship match of the B-draw, but NAU claimed five consolation
victories as the University of New Mexico Balloon Fiesta

Taylor had gone undefeated in the B-draw to advance to the title match, where he faced New Mexico's Conor Berg. The Lumberjack freshman would see his run come up just short of a championship, as Berg claimed a 6-4, 6-3 victory on his home court.

In a B-draw consolation final, NAU sophomore Ben Lantz faced Lumberjack sophomore Josh Brown, with Lantz claiming a 6-3, 6-7, 6-2 victory over his teammate.
Also on Sunday, Lantz and Taylor cruised to an 8-0 doubles victory over a pair from Northern Colorado. In another matchup of teammates, Flodberg and freshman Patrick Schimmelauer played a consolation doubles match against NAU junior David Flodberg and sophomore Andrew Reiff, with Flodberg and Schimmelbauer claiming an 8-4 victory.

New HVAC installer
From reading posts, it appears that the most significant part of results, when I install central HVAC, is the choice of the installer. While I have many other questions, the key is: does anyone have a good experience with an HVAC contractor who works in center city Philadelphia?
I am against the wall on time because it is a rental house. I have had 8 contractors come to the house, all but one say I should keep the R-22 refrigerant. Does that mean I would get different equipment than with R-410?
None of them have done any of the things that I have read in a quality installation checklist to analyze what is needed. I am desperate.
Answers would be deeply appreciated, and relevant questions that I should ask, too.
Can't provide a recommendation in that area, but, yes, R-22 equipment is different from 410A, including flush or replacement of the lineset.
Are you adding or replacing an existing system? Are we talking heat pump or straight A/C?
It's no secret that rentals are not known for getting the very best consideration as far as upgrade costs are concerned.
Lot of contractors won't do all those niceties you'd expect or your own home like load calcs ect. The ROI is just not there for them. You should make it clear to your contractors if you are going on the cheap or are really willing to invest in a quality system .

I am sometimes accused of being a cynic. I don't mean to be; I just happen to value thinking through a situation from start to finish and being realistic. However, this weekend Husband had to remind me several times to look at the positive / keep on the sunny side / look for the silver lining, etc. etc. In that vein, I thought it may be a good idea to start this week off with a few laughs.
So, in the spirit of English Muse, I thought I'd share some of my favorite funny authors. One of the best books I've read in the past few months was Mindy Kaling's "Is Everyone Hanging Out Without Me?" Although, if you pick up this one up, be warned: you will giggle yourself silly! For this reason, I'd recommend you not read it in bed as it may disturb your bedmate. (A few other picks from some funny favorites: Sarah Vowell, Amy Sedaris & her brother, the very witty, David Sedaris)
Hope you have a *lovely* week!
xo* Hannah B.

Hey there, time traveller!
This article was published 9/6/2014 (1108 days ago), so information in it may no longer be current.
Recently, several individuals have written into the Brandon Sun stating that one may choose to believe whatever one wants to about God, but it must be kept private and out of the public square.
"If religion is your fancy, by all means enjoy it, but it has no place in schools or anywhere, except your private life; and don't lecture others on your beliefs."
So while the secular citizen lectures others on his/her beliefs and is given free access to the public square, the religiously informed citizen is to have his convictions muzzled and leashed? How is this fair?
Ravi Zacharias aptly remarks: "In the name of non-offensiveness, religion is privatized and relegated to the home, while in the name of freedom all kinds of indecencies and abandonments are made public. How ironic that sexuality and nudity, which are meant to be private, are now fare for public consumption while spiritual convictions, which are meant to strengthen public polity, are now for private expression only."
It is often argued that religious ideas should not be allowed to inform public policy because of the violence engendered by religion.
But let's remember, the secularist is not immune to the question of violence. On the contrary, for the secularist there is this awkward fact: "The 20th century was not an age of faith, and it was awful. Lenin, Stalin, Hitler, Mao and Pol Pot will never be counted among the religious leaders of mankind."
David Berlinski puts it succinctly. After citing Nobel Prize winner Steven Weinberg's public statement "for good people to do evil things, that takes religion," he points out that not one member of Weinberg's audience asked the question one might have thought pertinent:
"Just who has imposed on the suffering human race poison gas, barbed wire, high explosives, experiments in eugenics, the formula for Zyklon B, heavy artillery, pseudo-scientific justifications for mass murder, cluster bombs, attack submarines, napalm, intercontinental ballistic missiles, military space platforms and nuclear weapons? If memory serves, it was not the Vatican."

Antique Vintage Folger's China Drip Coffee Maker Pot!!
- Sold for: Start Free Trial or Sign In to see what it's worth.
- Item Category: Ceramics
- Source: eBay
- Sold Date: Dec 15, 2008
- Channel: Auction House
Up for auction is an wonderfully preserved antique/vintage Folger's drip coffee pot. It is creamy yellow and consists of six pieces: a carafe, two filters (each goes inside a brewing pot), two brewing pots, and a lid. The only flaw I could find was a small "chip" on the rim of the carafe (see photo) that actually looks more like a manufacturer's flaw. All together, the piece stands 14", is 5 1/2" wide, and is 10" from handle to spout. The bottom of the carafe reads, "FOLGER'S AUTOMATIC DRIP COFFEE MAKER" "ALL CHINA MADE IN U.S.A." This would serve as wonderful vintage decor; I also see no reason why it wouldn't be perfectly useable! I have not washed the piece.I've described the item to the best of my knowledge. I am not an antique collector or dealer. If you have specific questions about the piece, please ask them before you bid! I have examined the item the best that I can, and have listed any flaws that came to my attention. The piece will be securely packed for shipping! Thanks for your interest.

The BBC has been censured by the BBC Trust over its aggressive pursuit of exclusive sports rights following a protest by its commercial radio rival, TalkSport.
Corporation management was taken to task by the trust over the way it bought exclusive radio broadcast rights to the FA Cup in a deal which runs from 2008/09 to 2011/12.
The trust said the corporation had failed to follow processes intended to ensure value for money for licence fee payers. It said "value for money" did not necessarily mean it had to buy up the exclusive rights, opening up the possibility of future shared rights deals with other broadcasters.
It also said the BBC had failed to conduct a proper competitive impact assessment when bidding for the rights, which, amounting to a "breach of the executive's duty to endeavour to minimise the BBC's negative competitive impact on the wider market".
The trust imposed a number of sanctions on BBC management, asking it to prove how it would ensure value for money when bidding for sports rights in the future, and external auditors will assess the potential negative competitive impact of the BBC's activity in the sports rights market.
It said management "must note that achieving value for money does not necessarily mean securing exclusive sports rights, and if there are other ways of meeting the obligations of a particular service licence, these must be considered".
TalkSport submitted a fair trading complaint to the BBC executive in December last year. It claimed the corporation's purchase of FA Cup and England matches in the four-year deal with the Football Association were in breach of a number of the BBC's codes and charter obligations – specifically that it had overpaid for the rights and was not acting in a way best designed to ensure value for money for licence fee payers.
TalkSport executives were understood to be particularly frustrated that the BBC had bought exclusive rights to all of the FA Cup matches when it has only two outlets – BBC Radio 5 Live and 5 Live Sports Extra – on which to broadcast them, even though multiple games, especially in the competition's early rounds, kick off simultaneously.
The complaint was dismissed by the executive in January this year, after which TalkSport appealed to the BBC Trust. The complaint was today partially upheld by the Trust.
Scott Taunton, managing director of TalkSport parent UTV Media, said: "I would like to thank the BBC Trust for the manner in which they have conducted their investigation.
"We are obviously pleased with the trust's findings and look forward to entering future sporting rights bidding processes knowing that we are competing on a level playing field."
Separately today, the trust ruled that the BBC had invested in three of its learning services on bbc.co.uk without sufficient regard to its impact on the market, and that the corporation "did not engage sufficiently with the wider industry concerning its new service developments".
Rotha Johnston, chair of the trust's finance and compliance committee, said: "The trust takes its responsibility to ensure that the BBC adheres to its fair trading rules very seriously.
"In these two cases the BBC failed adequately to follow the right processes. We look to the BBC executive to right these wrongs by putting in place robust measures to avoid this situation being repeated."
A BBC spokesman said: "We note that the trust did not find any evidence that the BBC either overpaid for the rights or acted anti-competitively. We recognise that the trust has identified some issues around the executive's approach to formulating sports rights, which we will examine and report back to the trust. The BBC will work with the trust to more clearly demonstrate the work it is doing to ensure value for money."

Does anyone have a simple (and fast) distance function to convert the voltage into a simple distance value? That would be super helpful. :)
Thanks so much! I'd made the exact same mistake of binding the drive shaft on both sides. I removed one of those screws and now both sides function independently as expected. :)

Supercomputer PC to run Vista? Time to switch to Linux?
AntonySatyadas 1100009CNT Tags:  linux windows vista cost supercomputer 2 Comments 5,476 Views
Microsoft has launched a "Get Ready" web site (http://www.microsoft.com/windowsvista/getready/capable.mspx) with information about Vista, system requirements, and an Upgrade Advisor tool intended to help people determine if their existing PCs are Vista-ready. Unfortunately, the information is not very clear. In fact, Michael Cherry, an analyst with the market research firm Directions on Microsoft, was quoted as saying: "I don't understand why it has to be this complex..." (Tech News on ZDNet, 5/18/2006). Maybe there is a reason?
One recent analysis, for example: http://weblog.infoworld.com/smbit/archives/2006/06/vista_hardware.html indicate that you will need 2GB of RAM and a 128-256MB video card! and maybe 64bit CPU, to get Vista to "rock"!!! This is over and beyond the Vista premium recommendations by Microsoft!
So for those who are eagerly waiting from Vista upgrade! This can run up your bill quite a bit! Will a year wait bring the price down? It could be more like y2008-2009 timeframe when customers really start upgrading (http://www.gartner.com/DisplayDocument?doc_cd=136411&ref=g_SiteLink)!
Can adopting Linux bring the operating system costs down? Yes, in many cases!
Can Linux desktop deployment start today? Yes![Read More]

Each week, we will offer a few rambling comments about events in life from the serious to the unimportant.
Every time I hear Rudy Giuliani speak about 9/11, I wonder if he could actually complete a sentence without those numbers being mentioned.
I thought Mike Huckabee was humorous on his guest appearances with Jon Stewart. After his pampering platitudes about waving the Confederate flag in the name of freedom, I wonder what this man would not say in order to get elected to the presidency.
When in heavy traffic and stuck at a red light, I invariably allow waiting cars to get in front of me. I become upset if the driver doesn't return my incredible kindness with a wave. Allowing cars in front of you deserves a wave.
If you are at a check out counter, always go to the line containing old geezeers like me. If we lived in the Depression, more often than not we pay cash.
I feel sorry for John Edwards. It seems he never runs for the presidency at the right time. He is a good man with good intentions, he just is in the wrong place at the wrong time.
I drove by a three police cars surrounding a car. Something in me concluded they were not catching a dangerous criminal, just a traffic violator. After all, that is the main goal of crime detection in the St. Louis area. Just kidding, St. Louis police!
Mitt Romeny belongs in a TV series entitled, Mitt and his Five Sons. It is the story of a man who serves his country by never serving in the armed forces and raises five boys who do likewise. And, not a wrinkle on his face to show for it.
Every time I see an ad about the $1 menu at McDonalds, I get the sense it would be preferable to head down to the Salvation Army homeless shelter and beg a meal. OK, so I say a few prayers, but the food is better.
I always feel a bit off centered about John McCain. I think he is an honest man, I think he is a brave man, I think he loves this country, but there is also a sense of a man driven by power to succeed regadless of the cost. I suspect that feeling helped him endure torture in Vietnam.
I think Hillary Clinton should take her daugher to the side and ask her politely never to make ridiculous comments again as when she told an 11 year old girl reporter for Scholastic that she never gives interviews to the press, and that includes 11 year old reporters.
Last weekend I came to the realization God exists. I prayed for the New York Football Giants to defeat Dallas and they did. Ok athiest, explain away that miracle without an act of God!
My first action as dictator of America will be banning the use of automated telephone systems that prevent people from talking to a human.
Two weeks ago, gasoline in the St. Louis area was $2.98. Today it is $2.69. A week from now it will be $2.99. I love living in a society governed by market forces. Funny, but every gasoline station winds up with the same price.
I think Ron Paul is a nice doctor. I am certain he is kind and patient with his patients. Unfortunately, his mind has never left the 19th century. I just hope his medical performance is at a 21st century level. His political solutions appear more geared to life a hundred fifty years ago. Then again, he actually believes corporate leaders, if not bound by government regulations, would do things to make the lives of their employees better. Hey Ron, want to buy a bridge in Brooklyn? I can get it for you real cheap.
I continue reading people who want to get rid of the income tax. For some reason, they never explain how a government functioning in a 14 trillion dollar economy would raise funds. Sometimes, a few mention a sales tax. If I was a wealthy person I would avidly support a sales tax over an income tax. It would be like having Christmas all year round.
The other day I read a statement by Fred Thompson who argued the government should just not worry about the economy and avoid taking any action because the market will adjust itself. When I was a young man growing up in the south Bronx we had a mentally retarded boy named Hymie who hung around the block. He might come up to you on a Tuesday and ask what day it was. Naturally, you would respond, "Tuesday." He would smile, shake his head and say, "Friday, eventually." I think I would prefer having Hymie as president of the United States rather than Fred Thompson.
Have a good weekend.

The Lutheran Church - Missouri Synod
The LCMS is a committed partner in caring for children with disabilities in the Dominican Republic, involved in mission work there since 2004. After almost 10 years of work with many partners and God's blessings, we celebrate the establishment of several congregations, mission plants, the ordination of the first Dominican pastor, many seminarians studying for the pastoral office, the development of a deaconess training program, and the establishment of a group home for the custody and care of six orphaned children with disabilities.
Caring for people with developmental disabilities has always been an element of the outreach and mission efforts in the Dominican Republic.
Children with intellectual or developmental disabilities in the Dominican Republic often do not have adequate care or opportunities for growth or education.
People with disabilities who cannot live with their families need group homes to be a part of a community. They also need to be given the light and hope of Christ.
To plant healthy, confessional Word and Sacrament congregations, which will form an independent national Lutheran church within the Dominican Republic that welcomes, ministers to and equips for service all those loved by God in Jesus Christ, including families with members who have developmental disabilities or other special needs.
The LCMS is committed to working with partners to:
The Dominican Republic Lutheran Mission is a partnership of:
The mission is grateful for the prayers and financial support of the Lutheran Women's Missionary League, Lutheran Hour Ministries, The Evangelical Lutheran Church in Argentina, MOST Ministries, Special Children Inc., and many LCMS individuals and congregations.

Hard clutch!
So Im looking for a jeep and the one i test today had the clutch really hard to depress. 98 6 cil
I have test other jeeps and the clutch has never been this hard. I saw some receipts from february 2011 where he replaced the whole clutch kit ..
I understand the clutch is hydraulic? So theres no adjustment to do... Is there something i should check?
I think this is the Jeep. I have this feeling! But just want to make sure this problem will not give me a hard time :(
Could have the wrong fluid in the resivoir
Could be too cold?
Could be a partial blockage in the line making it hard to push the pedal
Something could be blocking the pedal or linkage could be worn
Maybe the throw out bearing wasn't greased and it's hard to slide on the shaft

I would have never thought this of you! NO matter how you want to package it, or what you call it – your so-called "deposit system" with an expiration is a scam. Instead of focusing on what you really do best, namely provide incrredible value – you come across as pretty much a money grubbing scammer who is more concerned about getting your hands on all the money within your reach than your product.
A scam, by any other name is still a scam – why do you feel you need to make your money in the money-market business instead of your product. IF YOU TAKE SOMEONES MONEY FOR NO OTHER REASON THAN YOUR 'RULES' AND 'PROCESSES' – and give them no value except for the "priviledge" of letting YOU hold THEIR money then you are either a government or a crook – pure and simple.
What the hell is the matter with ADOBE – they think they can patent the dictionary??? It's illegal to even use the word The shere arrogance of a company who had gotten so big they think they are completely beyond reason….. not sure why you guys caved!
An ok post – but please find someone to proofread before you post. It would be much more easily followed if thoughts flowed from one subject to the other easily, subjects and objects of sentences were obvious and words were not overused in the same sentence and spelled correctly. Your otherwise good points were quite difficult for me to ferret out.

I would say people have to learn they're not the only ones living on this Earth....other people try to communicate things too...whether they agree with them or not...its still there...the messages will come and go just as people do...the lady in the costume DOES sound pretty insensitive.*imho*..but theres laws that allow people to have a free sense of speech and communication...to censor that would be to censor outright the sense of being oneself really...the lady who lost the baby just needed to accept that theres people who dont think the same way she does...that people will have their differences...you cant talk down someone just because you disagree with them....and you cant harrass them in hopes of making them change..you cant force change...
its a mixed combination...society has its generalized claims of whats considered "off topic" and then theres the ones that are personal to people...
I know the OP of this thread meant no harm by asking who wears WW2 uniforms other than themselves,and I know you definitely didnt mean any offense either,everyone just has a different take on it really...in the end...none of us would be wrong since its our opinions based on our personal lives really!
things that truly would make it wrong would be harrassment,slandering and trying to hurt people...thats when it takes a turn from trying to communicate differences to trying to defend oneself...
this is just my take on the whole thing really...i spend a lot of time trying to understand how the world fits in all of these vast differences into most generalized terms...
The Hume's ever skew history's weave. With haste they move through too-short lives. Driven to err by base desires, towards waste and wasting on they run. Undying, we Occuria light the path for wayward sons of man. Oft did we pass judgment on them so that Ivalice might endure. Eternal, we are hist'ry's stewards, to set the course and keep it true. The chosen is our hand - our fist - to let live some and to crush the rest.

This is so far the latest photo I posted in this blog as most of them were from my archive years back. Took this on my recent Penang trip. The dam was high up on the mountain. Did you know that this was actually a village? Now the villagers are relocated and the houses are still under the water, they did not demolish it. Interesting.
Love the blue sky, blue water and green blue hues of the mountain.

To help welcome in the start of college football season, Jell-O is working with 20 schools across the country to market University Jell-O Mold Kits that feature their logo or mascot.
But holy jiggling oversight, Batman!
There isn't a single Utah school on the list!
There will be no block-U-shaped Jell-O shot, no Aggie ice cream mix-in shaped like the state's favorite cow, and, probably the most egregious omission? No BYU Jell-O Jigglers!!
In a state that even produced a Jell-O pin for the Olympics, and where most residents can tell tales of carrots and green beans invading their favorite wobbly dessert, there's no ability to share the love of our favorite college sports teams in the medium of our favorite sweet.

I wanted a better profile as A previous Dr botched up my nose and shaved me way down. So I went to a brand new doctor years later and had restylane filler on my nose . I had my lips done to and the nurse gave me so much novacaine it was great but only on my lips . When the dr went to fill my nose It felt like hot fire was being injected into my face .... I was really wondering why i didn't get the novacaine there ???? i started crying for him to stop and he did and i said maybe i shouldn't do this it just hurt only after did i say that did he instruct the nurse to do a nasal block Novocaine on my nose . I never was in so much pain and i couldn't cry to move my lips as they were numb i felt so stupid and embarrassed . My Dr was great and gave me 200 dollars off of the cost of the whole thing .
i went home very swollen and felt like i had sunburned lips my nose is fine tho its been three weeks and the tip is still red . my nose is tender to the touch . My lips went down A lot but my nose still looks good .. it was great after he Novocained my nose i didn't feel a thing he should!!!! in hind site have done it before the procedure and he said he was sorry . yes id do it again and yes Ill go back to him unless i find it cheaper elsewhere.

In the end, there was no smoking gun. No incriminating e-mails. No damning recordings like the tapes of Enron brokers who, after manufacturing electricity shortages in California, rejoiced eagerly as wild fires threatened power lines.
There were just three hard-pressed Nortel Networks executives and a malleable accounting system. Former CEO Frank Dunn and his financial lieutenants, Douglas Beatty and Michael Gollogly, are now free to continue their lives, acquitted of charges they defrauded investors by toying with Nortel's books to pocket return-to-profit bonuses. Crown prosecutors did not prove beyond a reasonable doubt that the men deliberately planned to defraud investors, Mr. Justice Frank Marrocco concluded. And without proof of criminal intent, there was no case.
Yet Nortel's bookkeeping was not innocent in the sense of candid financial reporting. The year-long trial of the Nortel Three gave a behind-the-scenes look at the company's accounting practices. And what is showed was a fair amount of financial magic – "Ta-dah! This looks nicer" – at work.
With towering writeoffs and falling revenues, it was easy to move money in and out of the company's reserves, the infamous "cookie jars," to obtain something closer to the desired profit figures. Judge Marrocco dismissed this hocus-pocus, ruling that the amounts were not material for a company of Nortel's size. There was only one exception: The "unsupportable" $80-million in accrued liabilities released in the first quarter of 2003.
But even if these weren't large amounts, the fact this could be done within such discretion is disturbing. There is a fine line between "managing earnings" and manipulating the books. Financial reporting was never intended to be a PR job, nor should it be.
Also troubling was the relationship between Nortel and the company's long-standing auditors, Deloitte & Touche. The lead auditor on Nortel in 2003 was removed from his position and invited to take a back seat after he raised flags and questioned Nortel's use of accounting reserves. Nortel executives had been complaining about his work and his approach to Deloitte.
There were disagreements. There were accounting mistakes. And if Nortel accounting executives drew on reserves in this quarter or that one, it was merely a clumsy attempt to correct errors, concluded Judge Marrocco.
But while this was no fraud, the fact remains that Nortel bosses were eager to smooth out the company's earnings results – an eagerness not unrelated to the company's warped compensation system, which was overly generous and encouraged short-term results. (It was Frank Dunn himself who suggested to Nortel's compensation committee that executives be rewarded with return-to-profit triggered incentives.)
In the go-go years of the telecom boom, every Nortel executive had won the lottery, no one more so than John Roth, who left the company with $130-million and change. The company's board distribution stock options like candies on Halloween night; those long-lasting options came to represent 15 per cent of the shares outstanding. And when the telecom equipment buying frenzy came to halt, the board eased the pain for Nortel executives and managers by reducing the price at which the options could be exercised.
This was the corporate equivalent of reckless endangerment.
You couldn't say that it was Nortel's rapacious compensation or its aggressive accounting that caused it to sink. When the Internet bubble burst, the equipment manufacturer was overexposed to telecom upstarts that could no longer find financing to buy networks. And despite its head-spinning acquisition spree, Nortel was astonishingly ill-equipped to make inroads in the sounder enterprise market.
Yet this toxic corporate culture ultimately proved fatal to the company – especially when it got mired in the distracting accounting scandal. As CEOs came and went, Nortel was never able to manage a turnaround and extricate itself from controversy.
In the end, there was no smoking gun. Yet four years after the company filed for bankruptcy, as former Nortel employees and retirees are fighting with creditors over the remaining billions, the implosion of Nortel has left a lingering smell as acrid as gunpowder.Report Typo/Error

Why change something if it works? Because, at Spyderco, we practice the principle of C.Q.I. - Constant Quality Improvement. If we can refine and improve the ergonomics or cutting performance of an established model, we do it.
Our 2010 Para Military 2 has several changes over the classic version. The G-10 handle is narrowed at the end improving the ergonomics. The handle and blade have been profile thinner; removing uncomfortable angles when in the closed position. It features a Compression Lock and an ambidextrous-friendly four way clip which carries tip-up/tip-down, left/right-hand and rests deeper in a pocket. We kept the same high-performance CPM S30V full flat-ground blade but we've also lengthened the blade's tip and added additional surface jimping to both the spine and finger choil. Implementation of a new Bushing Pivot System generates fluid action and more consistent manufacturing tolerances. Larger lanyard gives more options for carry.
Refinements to overall construction may not be drastic or even visible to the eye but from the G-10 textured handle to the CPM S30V steel full flat blade, everything is sharper, smoother and guaranteed to provide performance and user comfort.

Sunday shopping the frontline in France's work-life balance war
By Natalie Huet
PARIS (Reuters) - Every Sunday in Paris, crowds of tourists clamber up the hill of Montmartre towards the whitewashed Sacre-Coeur Basilica, pausing by the clothing and gift stores that dot its cobbled streets.
Under France's Byzantine rules on Sunday trading, those at the top of the hill are in a designated tourist area and so can open, but those at the bottom cannot, and risk a fine of 6,000 euros ($8,000) if they do.
"It's absurd," said Sylvie Fourmond, head of a grouping of 180 "off-zone" shops around the Moulin Rouge end of Montmartre that are increasingly defying the law on Sundays.
"To get to the top of the hill tourists don't come by helicopter with parachutes. They walk up our streets and peer into our windows," she said.
The battle over Sunday trading in this neighborhood - once home to artists including Pablo Picasso and Salvador Dali - is part of a broader fight in France between the champions of deregulation and those defending a deep-rooted social model that treasures leisure time.
The unions that fiercely guard France's 35-hour working week and the churches of this mostly Catholic country oppose Sunday trading. But as recession bites, public attitudes are shifting.
A survey by pollster Ipsos last November showed 63 percent of the French favored looser Sunday shopping rules. Several hundred hardware store workers even took to the streets in May demanding the right to work on Sunday and chanting "Yes Week-End" in a play on U.S. President Barack Obama's "Yes We Can" campaign slogan.
Across Europe there is a diverse patchwork of Sunday trading laws, with Britain pushing ahead with a broad loosening of rules in 1994, while Germany and Austria still mostly prohibit Sunday opening. A number of recession-hit countries have recently softened their stance, including staunchly Catholic Italy last year and Greece only this month. Continued...

Investors are hoping a bounce in Wi-LAN Inc. shares will be the beginning of a rebound after another setback for the patent licensing company earlier in the summer.
The stock jumped 7 per cent on Monday after the Ottawa-based company said it settled a patent dispute and dropped legal action against Alcatel-Lucent USA Inc. The U.S. telecom equipment giant has signed a multi-year licensing agreement with Wi-LAN.
Analysts say the agreement bodes well for a handful of other patent suits Wi-LAN has outstanding, with court dates fast approaching.
"I don't think it would be a secret if I told people we've been in active discussions with other defendants and we are working towards settlements," Wi-LAN chief executive Jim Skippen said in an interview on Monday, adding there are no guarantees it will be successful.
Wi-LAN makes money buying and developing technology patents and then licensing them to some of the industry's biggest companies. It also takes legal action against companies it believes have infringed on its patents.
Some people refer to it and similar firms as "patent trolls" because of their willingness to go to court to extract fees from intellectual property, but Mr. Skippen takes exception to the term. "It's like someone steals from you and then gets to call you names."
Wi-LAN's business model has its risks. Its shares fell 33 per cent to a 52-week low of $3.27 on the Toronto Stock Exchange on July 15 after a jury in Texas rejected its patent suit against a handful of companies including Alcatel-Lucent. The stock has been volatile ever since. While Wi-LAN stock closed up 23 cents to $3.62 on Monday, it remains well below its 52-week high of $5.79 in September last year.
Wi-LAN was a tech darling during the dot-com boom, known for its once-revolutionary wireless technology that provided Internet access in hard-to-reach places. The stock traded around $90 in early 2000, before crashing below $9 later that same year. It has been trading below that level ever since, with the exception of a short-lived lift in July 2011.
The stock has been weighed down by the large amounts the company is spending on litigation, but many analysts believe the shares have been oversold since Wi-LAN lost the patent suit in July. According to Bloomberg, seven of eight analysts have a "buy" rating on the stock. Most like Wi-LAN's large licensing backlog, its strong cash balance and its juicy 4.5 per cent dividend payout, which is rare in the sector. Wi-LAN also has an active share buyback program.
Clarus Securities Inc. analyst Eyal Ofir called Monday's Alcatel-Lucent announcement "a significant milestone," for Wi-LAN, estimating the licence agreement is worth $5-million to $10-million per year over the five-year term.
The settlement is also promising given that it comes two months after Wi-LAN lost a case in which Alcatel was a defendant.
"We are hopeful that this settlement is an indication of others to come," said Mr. Ofir, who has a buy rating on the stock and a $6.50 price target.
Canaccord Genuity analyst Robert Young said it's difficult to predict Wi-LAN's future trajectory because its growth hinges on the outcome of litigation. However, he believes the value of its contracts, its cash flow and its portfolio of more than 3,000 patents makes the stock attractive.
"And investors can get paid a dividend along the way," said Mr. Young.
The legal discussions mean that now is a good time to buy Wi-LAN shares, according to Stephen Takacsy, chief investment officer at Lester Asset Management, which has been buying the stock at its weaker points.
"This is an event-driven company. It goes up and down on news of settlements and lawsuits or the anticipation of," said Mr. Takacsy.
Wi-LAN said two of the companies it's trying to reach an agreement with are Apple Inc. and HTC Corp. "We'd like to see settlements [there] if we can, too," Mr. Skippen said.Report Typo/Error
