There's a new approach to the desktop PC on its way to online and retail outlets everywhere. It's built around the Core Duo processor (with Merom or Core 2 Duo models promised for later this year) on a nano-ITX supersmall motherboard, populated mostly with notebook components in a very small case (typically with an external brick power supply just like a notebook would use, rather than an internal power supply).
By and large these units are more like notebooks in their weights and dimensions as well. Their small footprints and quiet acoustic signatures make them ideal elements for living room use as entertainment or multi-media PCs. Though they will also make peachy desktop replacements, we approached them primarily from the Media Center side of the world, as you'll see throughout this review.
What Is A Mini PC?
The four units we examine in this review are designed around specialized small form factor components. To our way of thinking (or perhaps more appropriately, of seeing and measuring) they represent a new class of small PCs. These mini PCs, to use what appears to be emerging terminology, may be appropriately distinguished from so-called Small Form Factor, or SFF, PCs by the following characteristics: even smaller dimensions, use of the Intel Core Duo processor on a nano-ITX motherboard and substitution of an internal power supply with a small notebook-like external brick that takes heat, weight, and noise out of the enclosure - and enables these mini PCs to assume even smaller dimensions than their SFF counterparts.
Whereas most SFF PCs may be distinguished by their small cube shaped cases - and Shuttle has clearly been a major and enduring player in the SFF market niche - these mini PCs are best recognized by their smaller, lower height, rectangular formats. That said the PC Alchemy M1B wouldn't be misrepresented by describing it as a truncated cube, though it is far smaller in all dimensions than any typical SFF PC from Shuttle, AOpen, Soltek or any other cube PC vendor you might care to name.
Digging a little more deeply into the nano ITX motherboard used for mini PCs, we see some further causes for making distinctions, along with some further justification for their consideration and use as Media Center PCs:Invariably, these units are built around the Intel 945PM Northbridge and ICH7M Southbridge chipsets. Most come configured with High Definition Audio and a built-in hardware codec such as the Realtek ALC880. All come equipped with wired GbE circuitry, and all support some kind of internal or external USB 2.0 wireless 802.11a/b/g interface. Some of our vendors bundle this functionality, others charge extra for an optional add-on. All include an optical DVD player. Some bundle a DVD burner (DVD+-RW/CD-RW) drive. All come equipped with at least three USB ports for attaching other devices necessary for MCE use, including IR transceivers (where they're not built-in), wireless networking, Bluetooth, HDTV tuners, and external storage. Note: though the PC Alchemy M1B only features two USB ports on the box, they bundle a tiny but capable powered 4-port USB 2.0 hub with the unit, for a total of four usable USB ports in all. All support TV tuners, where some vendors make SDTV tuners optional, and all make HDTV OTA tuners optional.
Shrinking the form factor, pulling out the power supply and using the low power Intel Core Duo CPU all add up to low overall power consumption, lower heat output, and thus, a need for less cooling to keep these units up and running. This also offers the side benefit of far lower noise output, even when compared to all but the quietest of SFF PCs. To our way of thinking, low noise and petite dimensions are major contributors to the appeal of these units as living room Media Center PCs.

But, I look forward to the overcast skies because although they produce some gloomy feelings, they also create some very unique lighting conditions that bring out some of the best colors found in nature.
What's so special about overcast lighting conditions?
Overcast skies are special because of the soft and balanced light they produce. The clouds act as a natural diffuser, so the more clouds you have in the sky, the more balanced the light will be. This balanced light will eliminate virtually all shadows and reflections.
So, what are these conditions good for? Well, two great examples are wildflowers and waterfalls.
Example #1 – WildflowersAs I discussed in a previous article, the secret to getting perfect light for your wildflower photos is to photograph them on an overcast day.
On a bright sunny day, the harsh rays of the sun will blow out the highlights of wildflowers and create some ugly dark shadows. The natural diffuser (clouds) helps balance the light to eliminate these shadows and cast a soft light on the flower (preventing those highlights from being blown).
Example #2 – Waterfalls/streamsThe soft and balanced light of an overcast day is also helpful for photographing waterfalls because it helps reduce contrast and reveal detail in the shadows.
Another great benefit of photographing waterfalls/streams on overcast days is the need for longer shutter speeds. Since cloudy days are significantly darker than sunny days, you'll need a longer shutter to capture the scene. These longer shutters are great for achieving that "silky" water look like in the photo above.
Another option: Capture the gloomy mood
If wildflowers and waterfalls aren't your thing, then perhaps you can just capture the gloom of overcast days. Maybe you know of a lone tree in a meadow somewhere, that looks especially lonely on a cloudy or overcast day.
There's no rule that says all your photos have to be happy, so don't be afraid to capture the gloom 🙂
For example, here's a scene I photographed on a gloomy overcast day:
What did I miss?

There are many reasons that you should look around for different diamond buyers for the possibility of selling diamonds and old jewelry that you no longer find any use for. It can pay off big to look at options of selling diamonds and making extra cash from diamonds that is just sitting in the jewelry box and not getting any wear. Many diamond buyers today are not afraid to purchase second-hand pieces, giving the diamond wholesalers a run for their money. Diamond buyers are a plenty today and there is a reason, because diamonds continue to increase in popularity and appeal. More people around the world are turning to the beautiful stones for a myriad of things, to make cell-phone cases shimmer, clothing, sunglasses, and more. There is no limit to what you can do with diamonds and the market is never going to go away for women who want a beautiful stone.
A diamond ring may not last forever in terms of the relationship, and if it goes south you can at least look forward to the option to sell an engagement ring and make some extra cash. Many engagement rings these days are worth several thousands of dollars, yours could definitely catch you a fair price if you bring it around to different diamond buyers and get a feel for how much the stone is worth. When you do begin to shop around selling diamonds, be sure that the diamond buyers remove the diamond stone from its setting, this way you are getting the weight of the stone individually and you can receive a more accurate appraisal. It is important to know about the cut, clarity, and other elements of your ring so that you can market and sell it appropriately.
If you have no idea how much your ring is worth then you won't be able to receive a fair price for it. Unfortunately for selling diamonds, there isn't very much of an objective method to determining the price of diamonds. Like there would be for silver or gold. Selling diamonds can sometimes be a bit tricky and take some time if you really want to get a good price for your rings or other jewelry. Take your beautiful piece of jewelry to a number of locations, not just one diamond buyers, so that you know you are getting real and truthful information about your piece. It doesn't take much effort to find an appraiser online, bring it to a pawnbroker and see what they might give you for it. There are numerous locations of diamond buyers both in your own city and online so you shouldn't have a hard time finding a place to bring it if you do want to sell an engagement ring or other jewelry piece.
Millions of women have made the decision to recycle their jewelry, why not sell something that you do not wear much anymore? Perhaps you could use the money from selling your extra jewelry, to purchase something even more beautiful and shiny. Or you could use the money to put toward something else important, it is up to you how to spend the funds.

While Portland may be a small place and sometimes feel more like a town than a city, what we lack in bright lights and skyscrapers we make up for by leaps and bounds in the culinary department. The amount of tasty restaurants in this place are impossible to count. Also countless are the amount farm-to-table, locally responsible chefs in our City Of Roses. Big shot among them being Jason French of Ned Ludd who competed in what was a fun filled night of beer pairing, competition, camaraderie and…proposal. Yes the Deschutes Chef Challenge brought out people from all walks of Portland life. The judges included Tracy Howard, associate editor of Imbibe Magazine, Steve Body, author of Seattle P.I.'s beer blog, The Pour Fool, Sal Zizzo, Potland Timber and owner of Zizzo's Food Cart, Caprial, Caprial + John The Kitchen, and Gary Fish, owner of Deschutes Brewery.
The menu, chefs, and beer they were paired with are as followed:
Chef Jason French from Ned Ludd
*Turkey Confit with Polenta, Hazelnuts and Pickled Cranberries
– Paired with Jubelale
Chef Gavin Ledson from Davis Street Tavern
*Banana Braised Pork Jowl Banh Mi with Chainbreaker Wort Pickled Carrot, Daikon Root & House Pate
– Paired with Chainbreaker White IPA
Chef Sarah Schafer from Irving Street Kitchen
*Spice Seared Sea Scallops with Pork Belly, Black Eyed Peas, and Bourbon Mustard Jus
– Paired with The Stoic
Chef Paul Bachand from Recipe
*Hand Formed Duck Fat Sope with Crispy Duck "Carnitas", Smoked Hazelnut Mole and The Abyss Creme Fraiche
– Paired with The Abyss
Chef John Eisenhart from Pazzo Ristorante
*Veal Cheeks with Moscato, Candy Cap & Savoy Cabage
– Paired with Mirror Pond Pale Ale
Chefs Jeff Usinowicz from Deschutes Brewery
*Dry Aged Baby Back Ribs with Tart Cherry BBQ Sauce, Yam Goat Cheese Croquettes, Roasted Onion Salad
– Paired with Armory XPA
The place was packed; I couldn't see any open seats in the large dining room. Everyone was having a great time when a lovely romantic surprise happened at the end of the night. Taken from a gentleman's love of Deschutes beer and his girlfriend, he proposed to her before dessert and (spoiler alert) she said yes! I'd be lying if I told you I didn't get teary eyed for a second. In short, I ate a lot of pig cooked confit, meaning "in fat". The six courses were all amazing in there own right, and while I couldn't finish any of them they were some of the tastiest things I've had in months – I surely don't need to eat again until 2012.

Remember back when talking about quality time was in vogue? It's not just the quantity of time you spend with kids, grandparents, pets, and others -- but the quality of the time that matters as well.
Cisco's newest press release on data center announcements makes a claim about "nine performance world records, including two benchmarks with the new UCS B230 M1 Blade Server." Here's what you need to know:
Nine is fine. But if you want to talk quantity, IBM leads in over 100 key benchmarks concurrently. And there is even a web page with all the details. If you want to talk quality, the IBM leadership spans across a wide portfolio of industry standard and ISV benchmarks. Not just a small handful of selected applications. It's also very exciting that the announcement referenced two new B230 benchmarks -- I wish I knew which ones. Without a footnote or web page it's really hard to second guess which quality benchmarks these are. I know that I didn't get any notes about a TPC or SAP result. I searched the SPEC site and didn't see the results there. So what are these mystery benchmarks anyway and why were they not announced with fanfare?
On Saturday I took my Black Lab to an annual event here known as the Doggy Dip. My dog made about a thousand friends, got dunked in the community pool twice, and even found a doggy treat on the ground. We only stayed thirty minutes. Now that was quality time.

I am constantly seeing parents snagging their kids off the middle of the slide, on the way up , saying, "we do not climb up the slide". There isn't usually anyone else playing on the slide, so maybe it is for my "hearing range" benefit? I don't know, just wondering.
Ha! I see/hear that a lot around here too. I don't get it. I've never had a problem with DD climbing up the slide if she wants to. Obviously before she was old enough to safely do it, I helped her if she REALLY showed interest in doing it that way. I don't see the big deal either. Some parents over-parent.

There have been numerous times that I have had to go up to another child to say, "Excuse me, may my daughter take a turn going down the slide?" This is why I do not let my child go up the slide.

Kim Kardashian Wears Pimp Inspired White Outfit After Labor Day [PHOTOS]
The horror! Mmmm. A curious choice of outfits for Kim Kardashian.
Kardashian sisters Kim and Kourtney stopped by a newsstand before heading to FIKA Espresso Bar while filming for Keeping Up with the Kardashians in New York City yesterday (October 6). The two hung out in the bar while on camera reading the paper and showing off pictures of little Mason Disick on Kourt's Blackberry.
PHOTOS: Kim Kardashian Gets Animalistic
Though Kardashian's family is firmly settled in Calabasas, Calif., husband Kris Humphries tries his hardest to entice his wife to move to a quieter locale. "Maybe you should just move to Minnesota with me," he tells her in the clip from Monday's special. "We could live in my move into my little house on the lake, we could just start popping out babies."
While Kris would like Kim to start pumping out babies, she's going to wait a little while before she starts a family. "I think I'm going to wait a little bit," she said. "We're definitely going to wait at least a year, just because we don't even know where he's going to be playing, so we have no idea where we're living. I think we have to figure that out first before we have babies."

It's a True Gospel Revolution
-by Michael Lilborn Williams
Recently, I have been addressing an article written by Dr James Richards of Impact ministries, Huntsville, Alabama. While I have been at a loss as to just why Jim published this now, 20 years since I last saw him, it has presented itself as a really good teaching tool.
Gospel Revolution founder and author Michael Williams' book ONE
"The most important thing we can ever learn about faith is that it's there not to change our life's circumstances, but that along life's path, faith is what is in place to keep circumstances from changing us." – Mike Williams
Quoted from "ONE – the gospel according to Mike" by Mike Williams.
"Proclaiming the gospel of peace and the audacity of God's grace fulfilled for all is the revolutionary truth of the cross that will only offend the self-righteous."
If you are offended, we're here to help!
Redemptionism: The doctrine that all of humanity was redeemed (i.e., saved, sanctified) through the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ and asserting that the redemption of all was completed and concluded in his resurrection. There was no further need for scriptural fulfillment thereafter. READ MORE
As we've already established, the gospel is pure good news. The Gospel Revolution is simply an attempt by a growing group of humanity to get out the good news–especially to those who have been burdened down by religious dictates, guilt, condemnation, and abuse. Our web site, gospelrevolution.com acts as a touch-point for like-minded folks from literally all over the world. It also houses much information and inspiration regarding the good news of redemption in Christ. READ MORE
Having Mike Williams come to your area to speak to your friends, family, or group is easier than you may think.

Crankworx CO
Winter Park, Colo., May 29, 2009 – Starting Monday, June 1, athletes will be able to register for this year's Crankworx Colorado events taking place at Winter Park Resort July 30 – August 2, 2009. With well-known athletes like Alex Prochaska, Andreu Lacondeguy, Lluis Lacondeguy, Graham Agassiz, and Paul Basagoitia confirmed to compete, a flurry of early registrantions are expected by those eager to seal their spot and earn only one of two chances to attend Kokanee Crankworx Slopestyle in Whistler, British Columbia. Registration for all events will be available online at www.crankworx.com.
"Winter Park Resort is not only the last place for athletes to qualify for Kokanee Crankworx Slopestyle, but is also hosting one of only a few slopestyle and best trick contests this summer." said Bob Holme, bike park and youth marketing manager. "Worldwide, numerous biking events have unfortunately been cancelled. Winter Park Resort is proving its commitment to the industry by carrying on the Crankworx Colorado tradition for a third year. As a result, we hope to provide both the athletes and spectators with a great event experience. We think that our guests will be blown away by the skill level that these riders will display during each competition throughout the four day Crankworx Colorado event."
Crankworx Colorado is a free event for spectators and is comprised of six different competitions including slopestyle, downhill, super downhill, best trick, cross-country, and dual slalom. This year, expect to see a bigger vendor area with one of the largest downhill mountain bike demo spaces in the United States.
The minimum age for registration is 13, calculated as of the race day. Riders under the age of 18 will need to have a Crankworx Colorado waiver signed by a parent/guardian and should contact the registration coordinator to make advance arrangements, (970) 726-1590.
On-site registration will be available space permitting, as some events have caps on registration. No day-of registration will be offered, only check-in for pre-registered competitors. Advance registration is strongly recommended.
Our website, crankworx.com, is a one-stop-shop for both athletes and spectators to learn more details about this event. Additional information, including course details, will be announced online July 1.

J.S.R.S "enforcing" module
|Start date:
|Due date:
|% Done:
|Target version:
Yea..seems 'odd' request-but now a fellow player who keeps using the vanilla plop-plop sounds
has significant advantage over me in PvP because he 's not taking "Stress" quantities under fire..while i "live a hell".
If its not very hard..please include a module :)

Sorry if i wasn't clear enough -Engl.is not my native language.
What i meant was i would love to be included in next version a placeable module (under modules)
in editor so the mission maker could "prohibit" the use of mission without JSRS.
Thank you :)

Well LJ is a great Sound artist, but I doubt that he knows how to make modules...

I have made what the guyz in BIforums are suggested.
Anyone else interested about this matter tho?
Updated by tonci87 over 5 years ago
Well I´m sorry to infor you but you seem to be the only one requesting such a module...
Updated by LordJarhead over 5 years ago
- Status changed from New to Rejected
I know what you mean mate! Sure others have not the atmospheric impressive you may have now, but if they dont want to use JSRS, I guess they dont even care much about sounds, so they wouldnt be impressed by whats going on. So these zombies will never feel the way we do while playing this game! Fuck them I say! This mod is for us who care about sounds in the first place. At least, you always can say you are handicaped by this mod :D
So sry, but I have to rejec this! Since noone else would be interested in this.

Three out:
INF Packy Elkins promoted to Palm Beach
INF Yunier Castillo transferred to extended spring training
INF Romulo Ruiz transferred to extended spring training
Three in:
INF Colin Walsh activated from extended spring training
INF Victor Sanchez activated from extended spring training
INF Ronny Gil activated from extended spring training
Elkins, 23, was originally selected in the 37th round of the 2010 First-Year Player Draft and joined Johnson City after signing last season. For the Bandits in 2011 in 108 at-bats over 36 games, the left-handed hitter posted a .278/.406/.352 line.
Castillo, a 22-year-old from the Dominican, was a 2010 New York-Penn League All-Star with Batavia. Over his first 31 Midwest League games, 103 at-bats, the right-handed hitter could not get untracked. His line was .194/.263/.252.
Ruiz, a 21-year-old native of Venezuela, joined the Bandits from extended spring training on April 28. Like Elkins, he played for Johnson City in 2010. For Quad Cities, the right-handed hitter struggled mightily, with a line of .119/.226/.167 in 42 at-bats over 13 games.
Sanchez began this season with Quad Cities, but was returned to EST on April 28, part of the same transactions when Ruiz arrived. The 22-year-old first baseman posted a line of .163/.288/.209 in his 43 at-bats over 14 Midwest League games. Sanchez had no home runs and three RBI. The right-handed hitter was the Cardinals' 26th round selection last June from the University of San Diego and played with Batavia after signing.
Gil is a 22-year-old switch-hitter from the Dominican formerly known as Grabiel Hernandez. Said to be a strong defender at shortstop, Gil sat out the 2010 season after being suspended for age and identity falsification. This will be his US debut. He batted .308 in the 2009 Dominican Summer League.
Update: Saturday, 5:30 P.M. CDT
Palm Beach announced its corresponding move for the addition of Elkins plus two more.
INF Ronald Ramirez released
RHP Aaron Terry placed on disabled list (backdated to 5/19)
C Luis De La Cruz activated from disabled list
Ramirez, a 25-year-old native of Colombia, was signed by the Cardinals in January as a minor league free agent to provide organizational depth. The right-handed batter did not hit enough, with a line of .211/.239/.226 in 133 at-bats over 35 games.
Most recently, Terry, 24, pitched shutout innings on consecutive days on Wednesday and Thursday. The Cardinals' 42nd-round pick in the 2009 draft has a 1-3 record with two saves and a 4.88 ERA in 16 Florida State League games. His strikeout to walk ratio was an unhealthy 8:11 in 24 innings.
De La Cruz, 22, opened the season on the disabled list after having played for Batavia, Palm Beach and Springfield in 2010. Over his first five minor league seasons, the Dominican native has an aggregate line of .225/.272/.310 in 200 games.

Damages awarded to a Briton who walked into a plate glass door in her Barbados hotel could throw holiday operators into turmoil, the Appeal Court was told.
Moira Japp, 53, was wearing a bikini when she suffered the deep lacerations. In October last year, a judge at Brighton county court found Virgin Holidays 80 per cent liable for the injuries and awarded Mrs Japp £24,000 damages.
The holiday company has now appealed claiming that the award would "create great difficulties for the tourist industry" by applying British health and safety standards to "far flung exotic places".
Mrs Japp's lawsuit claimed Virgin Holidays ought to have ensured there was toughened or safety glass in the French windows between her room and the balcony. But Sarah Prager, for Virgin Holidays, told the Appeal Court in London "some nations are more risk averse than others".
Andrew Spencer, for Mrs Japp, of Worthing, said: "When people book a package holiday, they are entitled to expect that the facilities are not unsafe." The court's judgment will be given later.Reuse content

When the Arizona Department of Public Safety looked for a CIO, Cmdr. Jeffery Resler's experience as a Highway Patrol officer put him at the top of the list. On the job since January, Resler has used his background in business and on the street as an officer to coordinate the information technology strategic plan for the DPS.
What is the significance of having an experienced law enforcement officer in your position?
I understand the needs of the officer. I understand the needs of the operation site. Yet I have a background in business, so I understand the business strategic planning for the agency, where we need to go as a law enforcement agency. We're unique because we deal with every aspect of the criminal justice community.
It's not just the business processes. It's the intelligence; dealing with domestic violence; domestic terrorism; mobile computing; integrated justice programs; continuity of business plans that relate to law enforcement; the statewide telecommunications network, our statewide criminal justice information system network where we provide information to the entire state through NCIC.
So it's not only the perspective of what do you do in-house for the daily user sitting at a PC. It's what we do that affects the officer on the street that ultimately affects the public.
How has your job evolved?
I have a pretty strong background in computers and technology and networks, but I'm also our domestic preparedness command-center commander.
When the events of 9-11 occurred, law enforcement and homeland defense became even more important. Transferring of information became even more important. Looking at systems that provided officers up-to-date, current information but also allowed them to provide that information back became even more apparent.
Now we spend a lot of time looking at business plans and equipment and strategic designs that assist in the smooth and efficient mode of information for the law enforcement community from a public safety perspective on highway safety issues, criminal investigative issues and narcotics transporting issues.
So it's nice coming from the background of the law enforcement perspective of knowing what the user on the street needs.
Is Arizona working with other states?
We partner with a lot of different states and a lot of different projects. We have contacts through an intelligence network with California, New Mexico and Texas.
We also exchange a great amount of information on projects related to our public safety wireless network - the potential upgrade for that, moving from an analog to a digital network in the future. So we maintain constant contact with a number of law enforcement agencies looking at the best way and the safest and efficient way to provide data and voice communications for law enforcement officers on the street.
How has the use of public-safety technology evolved?
A lot of times, agencies fail to look at their strategic business plan for their law enforcement agency and see how they can leverage IT to make their business plan work better like you do in any business.
I don't think its been done very successfully in law enforcement. Now, at least in this agency, we're saying this is what our strategic business plan is. This is what our strategic long-term IT plan is.
How do we marry those two and leverage technology to make our business plan better? How do we make it more efficient? How do we do something and not buy it and then put it in place just because it's the current trend? Does it really work? Does it really save the officer time? We're looking very closely at how to do automated citations. The technology just isn't there yet. It's costly.
What's your management style?
I spent my first 45 to 60 days in here just listening. It's nice coming from a law enforcement perspective that I've known most of the people that I work with and I've been with them for a long time.
And I know some of the issues. But I got really close to the IT staff and listened to their concerns. I had an open ear and tried to build a good personal relationship, not only with everybody here, but also with the users so I could set realistic goals [and] be accessible and responsive to them. And I started establishing credibility for not only the position but the agency by doing things that benefited them.

Bad water pressure (well water)
We live in a 2 year old house with well water. Our water pressure, particularly in the upstairs showers, stinks. It seems to have gotten progressively worse over time. If you run a second source of water with the shower running (ie a faucet), it dribbles out. We have a filtration system, the water has been checked, and all pH/metal levels have been ok. The well guague reads between 40-60psi.
The only thing of note with the well--we had air in the pipes twice last winter that required the well company to come fix a stuck valve. There is no more air in the pipes, but I swear the pressure has been getting worse ever since.
I called the well company and they claim it isn't the well. They say the stuck valve wouldn't cause this problem. The boiler company says its not them.
Check the filters and main filtration system to make sure the filters are clean. Well water can clog these up quickly and thats what your situation sounds like.
Look at the water filters. I think you'll find that they have a bypass mode on them. Turn them to bypass. If your pressure problem is solved, then change the filters media out, its clogged. If this doesn't change anything, call the well folks or a plumber out to have a look.
Pictures of filters and well equipment would help.

After five years in print, Elle Girl will stop the presses and publish exclusively on the Internet to better target its audience, according to a report in Ad Age. Hachette Filipacchi Media U.S., its parent company, plans to publish online and mobile content to reach the teen girls of its demographic.
With the rising number of teens online, the move seems to be a no-brainer. It's further evidence that companies targeting a younger generation need to reach them where they spend most time.

Submitted to: Applied Engineering in Agriculture
Publication Type: Peer Reviewed Journal
Publication Acceptance Date: 4/21/2007
Publication Date: 1/1/2008
Citation: Casada, M., Ram, M.S., Flinn, P.W. 2008. Thermal Design of Shipping Containers for Beneficial Insects. Applied Engineering in Agriculture 24: 63-70. Interpretive Summary: Suppliers of beneficial parasitoids for Integrated Pest Management (IPM) control of harmful insects need better containers and specifications for healthy shipping of the parasitoids. We defined shipping container design requirements by modeling heat transfer through shipping container walls and used data from instrumented containers shipped via Federal Express from a cooperating manufacturer's laboratory to GMPRC for validation. Specifications were developed for the insulation and natural refrigerant necessary for maintaining the internal temperature in the desirable range throughout the shipping time based on heat transfer analysis and field tests. This information will allow beneficial insect suppliers to safely ship their insects while using the most economical size of package and natural refrigerant.
Technical Abstract: The use of chemical pesticides to control stored product insects can be reduced with Integrated Pest Management (IPM) practices such as the use of natural enemies, like parasitoids, to control harmful insects. In this study, improved specifications were developed for shipping containers to deliver healthy parasitoids for IPM practitioners. Heat transfer through the container walls was evaluated to determine the amount of insulation and natural refrigerant (such as ice) necessary for maintaining the internal temperature in the desirable range throughout the shipping time and was based on recommended temperature limits for commercial shipments. An energy balance on the shipping containers was used to provide the needed design equation to specify the insulation level. Containers with temperature-monitoring sensors were shipped by overnight express from a cooperating supplier's laboratory to GMPRC to obtain validation data. Also, standard frozen gels and other potential natural refrigerants were compared in laboratory tests of the containers at times and temperatures comparable to those measured in the experimental shipments.

The executive has actually revealed the reason why the China based manufacturer made this decision. According to Yu, Huawei wanted to emphasize the user experience with the Honor 3X instead of the specs. He pointed out that there is not much difference in the viewing experience between the 1080p and 720p screens and added that the latter resolution glass consumes 20% less power than the FHD screen. Additionally, the panel being used by Huawei is produced with the Low Temperature Poly-Silicon technology. Huawei says that this process allows users to have a smoother scrolling experience.
So if you're curious, that is the explanation from Huawei's top executive. If you're not happy about the reason why Huawei has decided to use the 720 x 1280 glass on the phone, consider this. When the battery on your Huawei Honor 3X is almost dead, and you need to make a very important call, you'll be glad that Huawei decided to go in the direction that it did.
Thanks, Anonymous Tipster!

Falls in Parkinson's disease : evidence for altered stepping strategies on compliant surfaces
Cole, Michael H., Silburn, Peter A., Wood, Joanne M., & Kerr, Graham K. (2011) Falls in Parkinson's disease : evidence for altered stepping strategies on compliant surfaces. Parkinsonism and Related Disorders, 17(8), pp. 610-616.
Accepted Version
Background: Real-world environments comprise surfaces of different textures, densities and gradients, which can threaten postural stability and increase falls risk. However, there has been limited research that has examined how walking on compliant surfaces influences gait and postural stability in older people and PD patients.
Methods: PD patients (n = 49) and age-matched controls (n = 32) were assessed using three dimensional motion analysis during self-paced walking on both firm and foam walkways. Falls were recorded prospectively over 12 months using daily falls calendars.
Results: Walking on a foam surface influenced the temporospatial characteristics for all groups, but PD fallers adopted very different joint kinematics compared with controls. PD fallers also demonstrated reduced toe clearance and had increased mediolateral head motion(relative to walking velocity) compared with control participants.
Conclusions: Postural control deficits in PD fallers may impair their capacity to attenuate surface-related perturbations and control head motion. The risk of falling for PD patients may be increased on less stable surfaces.

Troubleshooting Common Post-Surgery Issues
After weight loss surgery, certain issues are common. It's important to know which issues are normal and what you can do about them or when to call the doctor.
One common complaint is lethargy. It takes some time for the anesthesia to wear off of the system. Even though you are tired and may just want to lay all day and sleep, it is extremely important to keep walking. Even if you are tired, just walk in 5-minute spurts to keep your blood flowing and to avoid blood clots, which is a risk with any operation. Moving around will also help alleviate gas that you will experience.
Dizziness and nausea are common signs of dehydration. Make sure you are drinking adequate fluids. You will need at least 64 ounces or 8, 8-ounce glasses of low calorie, non-caffeinated, non-carbonated fluids. Keep in mind that you must sip slowly on fluids post op. The guideline is 3-4 ounces of fluid every half hour. You may try a sippy cup, sports top bottle, or medicine cup (about 1 ounce) to help you get used to sipping slowly. Remember not to use a straw and not to gulp your drinks as this will cause you to swallow air, which will be uncomfortable.
Certain symptoms should prompt you to call the Comprehensive Obesity Management Office (COMP) right away, including high fever, uncontrollable pain, trouble keeping fluids down, difficulty breathing and bloody stools.

Paul Maholm to the DL
The Pittsburgh Pirates have placed left handed pitcher Paul Maholm on the 15-day disabled list with a shoulder strain. The team will announce a corresponding roster move tomorrow.
Maholm is scheduled to start again on Tuesday. The Pirates have a double header on Monday, with Ross Ohlendorf being the candidate to get the start in game two. However, the Pirates will now need two starters, as Ohlendorf will most likely be the favorite to replace Maholm. The only starting pitching options on the 40-man roster are Jeff Locke and Kyle McPherson, although the Pirates would be rushing either option to the majors if they made the call for one of those two. It's possible that Brad Lincoln could make one of the two starts....

Secrets of the Photocopier
(drawing, collage, reassembled photocopies)
© 2008
In one of our best group shows in recent times, Secrets of the Photocopier saw some of Australia most prolific zinemakers descend on the subway to take over the cases during February. Organised by Platform lovechild Sticky and the Shop 10 crew (Luke Sinclair and Elle Peace with a host of dedicated volunteers), the Secrets exhibition was part of the first zine festival held in and around the subway throughout the month. Secrets featured some top Aussie talents in cut-and-paste independent publishing including: 7U, Breakdown Press, Gracia Haby & Louise Jennison, All Thumbs Press, WEB, Ianto Ware, DNA, YOU, PAPER/CUTS (see image), Erinsborough Exploits, Mavis McKenzie, and Contextual Villains. Altogther a superbly executed group show about zines…still not sure what a zine is? Here's the closest definition from the Sticky crew:
"Zines are a low-budget, accessible, 'democracy of the multiple' form of artistic and written expression, usually centred around photocopier technology as an easy and immediate form of reproduction, the zine then being freely distributed at little or no cost. Zines are often difficult to define and it is this difficulty of defining zines that contributes to its ever-changing dynamics and freedom that encourage experimental and innovative art forms."
For more information about zines and how to buy, sell and exchange your own work, visit Melbourne's leading zine shop: Sticky, Shop 10, Degraves Street Subway, Melbourne or check the website.
David Mahler
My Head Hurts (installation view)
(charcoal, pencil, acrylics, spray paint, collage, lego)
© 2008
One of our youngest Platform artists to date, 15-year old David Mahler held his first solo show, My Head Hurts, in the Sample space during February. David experiences synesthesia and much of his work is produced to music, exploring a range of techniques that demonstrate an unexpected diversity.
David says about this show: "I decided to call the exhibit "my head hurts" for various reasons. I get stressed pretty easily, and art helps me relax. I enjoy using bright colours and collaging images that have surrealistic and confusing implications. I guess the effect of the brightness can sometimes just dazzle people, which can be exaggerated as to being a headache." We're looking forward to seeing this young hotshot evolve his practice in the coming years!
Pip Stafford
Nobody Knows You Better Than I Do (detail)
(video still/screen print)
© 2008
Tasmanian artist Pip Stafford popped up to town to install a new piece in Vitrine for March. Nobody Knows You Better Than I Do explores everyday confessions from anonymous strangers presented in video, audio and screen-printed formats. Pip says about her work: "I am interested in the everyday; the mundane, daily rituals and private life. The length and breadth of lovers' intimate knowledge, the things a mother no longer sees her grown up children do. The daily intimacies that we keep entirely to ourselves. Nobody Knows You Better Than I Do is an ongoing project which asks the question "What are your habits and rituals?" The video component of the project consists of a series of videos created anonymously: people talking about their personal habits, rituals and fears while videoing something of their choice - which is both a conceptual trope and an attempt to maintain anonymity while providing an interesting backdrop for their stories. The text on the window tells nine anonymous stories in gocco-printed repetition - the quotes were sourced from a Google search about 'weird habits'."
Anyone can participate in the project and videos, audio or text-based confessions can be sent anonymously to: GPO Box 325 Hobart 7001 Tasmania.

Inman Aligner
The Inman Aligner is designed to correct adult relapse and misaligned teeth. It is barely visible, apart from a single clear wire, and it is a removable orthodontic appliance, allowing the wearer to go brace-free for important occasions. The Inman Aligner is similar to a retainer but has these advantages:
- Can correct moderate crowding and rotation of teeth
- More comfortable to wear as the spring is made of nickel titanium rather than stainless steel
- No retention problems
It also has advantages over invisalign:
- Less hassle and expense in a shorter period of time
- Achieve great results with just one appliance
How does it work?
The Inman Aligner uses a lingual coil spring that puts pressure at the back of the teeth that need repositioning.
A bar placed across the front of the teeth reverses the same pressure.
These components work together to "squeeze" teeth together by pushing and pulling them into alignment.
How long does it take?
Fitting the aligner takes two half-hour appointments, followed by 15-minute monthly examinations.
Treatment can be achieved in as little as 8 to 16 weeks.

Gameloft's UNO & Friends launched earlier this month. Since then, two weeks have gone by with no new Xbox Windows Phone release (unless we count Chaos Rings, which we'll get to in another article). Once again, the Xbox Red Stripe Deal is left to pick up the slack.
This week's sale game can't even begin to match the quality of last week's Rayman Jungle Run sale, but it should still please Achievement hungry bargain shoppers. Collapse! from Game House is on sale for 99 cents. It went on sale back in February 2012, but at the higher $1.99 price point.

The products look great, the prices and sizes I don't like at all...so many of them even if I liked them I wouldn't re-purchase for such small sizes honestly.
I've only used the Edgy tamming taffy. It does tame my edges well, and it evens work nicely as a pomade on my hair overall - if I were wanting to just use it on my edges I'd be cool with the size but the product made me see that pomade gives me nice clumpy big defined curls and I used it for wash-n-gos so it went quicker.
But overall it's still a good product. It's a thick, 'hard' pomade, it wont spread easily in your hand unless it's been softened a bit first, either by the heat or water.
It's great for sealing in moisture as well, and rinses clean from my hair ^^

Welcome the weird and the wonderful back to Coney Island in May
- Price band: 1/4
- Critics choice
Hurricane (fine, Superstorm, sheesh you people are pedants) Sandy did a number on Sideshows by the Seashore, the space for Coney Island USA's off-kilter events and variety shows, and the home of the Coney Island Museum. A focus on rebuilding means there's no Noisefest parade or Congress of Curious Peoples this year, but the institution makes its return with the Olde Time Strongman Spectacular on May 19, a free show (VIP seating $25) outside the building with astounding feats of brawn. That's followed by the season's first Burlesque at the Beach on May 23 and Sideshow on May 24. Check coneyisland.com closer to the time for details.
- 1208 Surf Ave, (at 12th St), 11224
Get down at Crossing Brooklyn Ferry
- Critics choice
Bryce and Aaron Dessner, the twin guitarist-composers behind the National, are bringing their weekend-long music fest back to BAM after a stellar debut last year. Named for Walt Whitman's 1855 poem about a trip across the East River, CBF showcases NYC's top-notch musicians, composers, singer-songwriters and DJs. This year's lineup is still pending, but if last year's is any indication (it included the Walkmen, St. Vincent, Beirut and the JACK Quartet, to name just a few), expect the crème de la crème of indie rock, postclassical, Afrobeat and more. $50.

Find Brooklyn cool in Chelsea Market at the Artists & Fleas pop-up
- Price band: 2/4
- Critics choice
After going strong in Brooklyn for a decade, cofounder Ronen Glimer says, A&F is "bringing cool back to Chelsea Market" (burn!), with a monthly pop-up featuring 30 makers and their wares. Score affordable art from Kevin Marcell, who screenprints iconic New York scenes onto old city cycling maps ($25–$55), or dig through impeccably curated boho-chic women's vintage clothing ($48–$1,200) from Gypsy Nation (gypsynationvintage.com). Watch out for details regarding an end-of-spring trunk show dedicated to accessories and jewelry.

Dock for Fleet Week
- Critics choice
Each year, members of the United States Navy, Coast Guard and Marine Corps gather in New York City to celebrate the seafaring wing of our armed forces. The week kicks off with the Parade of Sail, a flotilla of visiting vessels and tall ships that cruise along the Hudson River, and the festivities continue into the week with musical performances, military demonstrations and a Memorial Day ceremony. There's also the chance to visit in-service ships docked in city harbors. And then, of course, there's the sight of Navy men and women on shore leave, taking in the sights, engaging in high jinks and making us swoon. Locations vary, visit militarynews.com/fleetweeknewyork for details.

Get fit at the Central Park Circuit
- Critics choice
Trade in your gym membership for a free workout in Manhattan's shared backyard, thanks to Central Park Conservancy. Trainers Rich Fortunat and Whitney Jacobs helped design this outdoor circuit that utilizes park facilities—such as benches, stairs, hills and lawns—in cardio and strength-building routines. Conservancy members have first dibs on trainer-led workouts, which take place on Tuesdays (6:30–7:30pm, Great Lawn at 81st St) and Thursdays (6:30–7:30pm, Great Hill at 106th St) over spring (May 14–June 20) and summer (July 9–Aug 5). The classes are capped at 20 people, but you can download a PDF of the exercises and view instructional videos at centralparknyc.org/circuit.

Make a pilgrimage to the Red Hook ball fields
- Critics choice
This collection of Latin-food vendors isn't the well-kept secret it once was (like five, ten years ago), and trucks on the Red Hook roster such as Vendy Award winners Solber Pupusas and Country Boys can be found around town at the Brooklyn Flea and Smorgasburg (the latter has even opened a new joint in Park Slope). But we think there are still good reasons to make the trip: The neighborhood of Red Hook is a great place to spend a day, we prefer our pupusas on the grass while watching soccer, and this is the final season of the association's six-year lease. Calm down, they'll likely reapply and return next year, but remember Carly Simon's words—you never know what you've got till it's gone. So go get it. Opening late April or early May; check redhookfoodvendors.com or follow @RedHookFoodVend for updates.

A new New York Public Library for the Performing Arts series, Rhapsodic City: Music of New York, examines homegrown musical genres such as hip-hop, punk, mambo, salsa, folk revival and Brill Building pop (the name refers to a songwriting epicenter in the 1950s and '60s) with free talks, performances and screenings of holdings from the library's holdings. Highlights of the six-week program include Blondie's Debbie Harry and Chris Stein discussing punk with Rolling Stone's Will Hermes (Mar 27 at 6pm), while the Jazz Age Lawn Party's Michael Arenella hosts an evening looking at the music of the Prohibition Era (Apr 10 at 6pm).

…unlike us, who will reward readers who got this far by blabbing about Secret Cinema, a London-based outfit that holds film screenings in undisclosed locations, with a dress code and interactive-theater experience matching the theme of a movie (which also isn't revealed). For instance, in summer 2012 an event centered around Prometheus took place in a vast abandoned warehouse in North London, and got attendees to sign up as employees of Brave New Ventures to take a trip to outer space, with Radiohead providing the soundtrack. (Read about the whole shebang on this Secret Cinema webpage.) And now their website declares they're coming to New York. Get on the list for updates at secretcinema.org and for goodness' sake, don't tell anyone you heard about it from us.

Quick GuideInsomnia Pictures Slideshow: 20 Tips for Better Sleep
Melatonin (for example, Melatonex) is the only hormone available OTC for insomnia. Melatonin is a hormone produced by the pineal gland that helps regulate the body's clock or sleep-wake cycle. The secretion of melatonin is increased by darkness and decreased by light. The exact mechanism of how melatonin induces sleep has not been determined. Melatonin also decreases mental alertness and body temperature.
Melatonin is sold as a dietary supplement and is, therefore, not regulated by the FDA. It is commonly used for jet lag, insomnia, and sleep disturbances related to working night shifts. Some limited evidence suggests melatonin may be useful for treating sleep disturbances.
In 2005, MIT analyzed 17 peer-reviewed studies using melatonin. The analysis showed that melatonin was effective in helping people fall asleep at doses of 0.3 milligrams (mg). In some preparations the dosage of melatonin is significantly higher and these larger doses have shown to be less effective after only a few days of use. If possible, patients may want to stay with the same formulation or brand if it is effective for them.
If a person would like to try melatonin tablets, consult a doctor first.
Dosing: There is no established dose or time of administration. Individuals should follow the product labeling for dosing and administration.
Pregnancy and lactation: The use of melatonin during pregnancy or lactation has not been studied adequately. Based on past experience with other agents and the possibility of unknown risks to the fetus, melatonin should be avoided during pregnancy while breastfeeding. Consult your doctor before you use melatonin if you are pregnant or breastfeeding.
Children: The use of melatonin in children may be effective, particularly in children with disturbed sleep due to autism spectrum disorders. However, it should not be used as a first-choice treatment in children. Consult your pediatrician before giving your child melatonin for sleep.
Drug interactions: Although melatonin is sold as a dietary supplement, it should be thought of as a drug. It has side effects and may have drug interactions that have not been identified. The level of melatonin that the body produces is increased by certain drugs, such as selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor antidepressants or SRRIs (for example, fluoxetine [Prozac], sertraline [Zoloft], paroxetine [Paxil]) and monoamine oxidase inhibitors (for example, tranylcypromine [Parnate], phenelzine [Nardil]). The interaction between these antidepressants and melatonin used as a sleeping aid has not been assessed.
Side effects: The most common adverse effect of melatonin is drowsiness. Therefore, tasks that require alertness (for example, driving) should be avoided for four to five hours after taking melatonin. Melatonin also may also cause itching, abnormal heartbeats, and headaches. Melatonin appears to be safe when used short-term (less than three months). Long-term side effects of melatonin are unkown.
Melatonin is either derived from animal sources or synthesized in a laboratory. Melatonin obtained from animal sources has a higher likelihood of contamination, which can cause allergic reactions and viral transmission, than synthetic melatonin.
Melatonin may stimulate the immune system. People with severe allergies or other disorders that may be caused by an overactive immune system (for example, systemic lupus erythematosus, rheumatoid arthritis) should avoid using melatonin.
Other herbal products: Natural herbal supplements such as valerian, chamomile, kava kava, and others have been touted as remedies for insomnia; however, the safety or effectiveness of these products has not been documented. Consult your doctor before taking any herbal supplements to treat insomnia.
