Scene 1
Hamlet: To be

Conscience: (from the shadows?) or not to be

Both: that is the question

Scene 2
H:
Whether 'tis nobler in the mind to suffer
The slings and arrows of outrageous fortune,
Or to take arms against a sea of troubles,
And by opposing end them?

C: To die…

H: to sleep…

Both:
No more
(pause)
And by a sleep to say we end
The heart-ache and the thousand natural shocks
That flesh is heir to,
'tis a consummation
Devoutly to be wish'd.

Scene 3
EC: To die

H: to sleep;

C: To sleep: perchance to dream:

H: ay, there's the rub;
For in that sleep of death what dreams may come

Both:
When we have shuffled off this mortal coil,
Must give us pause
there's the respect
That makes calamity of so long life;

Scene 4
H: For who would bear the whips and scorns of time,

C: The oppressor's wrong

H: the proud man's contumely,

C: The pangs of despised love

H: the law's delay,

C: The insolence of office

Both:
and the spurns
That patient merit of the unworthy takes,
When he himself might his quietus make
With a bare bodkin?

Scene 5
Hamlet:
who would fardels bear,
To grunt and sweat under a weary life,

Both:
But that the dread of something after death,
The undiscover'd country from whose bourn(e)

H: No traveller returns…

C:
puzzles the will…
And makes us rather bear those ills we have
Than fly to others that we know not of?

H:
Thus conscience does make cowards of us all;
And thus the native hue of resolution
Is sicklied o'er with the pale cast of thought,
And enterprises of great pith and moment

C:
With this regard their currents turn awry,
And lose the name of action.

Scene 6
H: (whispers?) Soft you now…

EC: The fair…

H: Ophelia…

EC: Nymph, in thy orisons

Hamlet: Be all my sins remember'd.

 System of rules that would benefit third world countries for them to compete in the world market especially in the dawn of globalization
 Powerful force to reduce poverty
 Unfair trading rules hinder developing countries from their own resources
 Live 8 concerts, rallies and protest, trade talks have been held to promote trade justice and make people more aware of our situation.
 Voting online on Make poverty history websites, wearing the white band, supporting organizations that promote r trade justice, change economic policies and protect public services are ways to implement trade justice
 TRADE JUSTICE ensures that developing countries get enough financial compensation for the goods they're selling and that the relationship between these countries and their donors (richer countries that help them) will have minimum conditions for the help given to the developing countries. – 8th MDGs main goal

 TRADE JUSTICE AND THE MDGS
MDG 1: If trade justice is implemented, local industries would be able to prosper and
compete to raise itself from poverty. Governments would be able to focus more
on public service for the people, granting them job security, adequate food supply for developing nations.

MDG 2: In connection with the the MDG on education, children may now experience
going to school. Their government may now have enough money to support urban areas as they can establish schools in these areas deprived of education.

MDG 3: If trade justice is implemented, it will allow the people to improve their
Lifestyles and livelihood and because of this, they will be able to send women to school to have a proper education instead of staying home and doing chores while men go to work.

MDG 4: If trade justice is implemented, there is a greater chance for the Philippine
 economy to improve due to the fact that it aims to support local industries.
 If this happens, a better future would be available for the next generation.

MDG 5: If trade justice is implemented, the medicines and other maternal equipment
 necessary will be more affordable; thus, securing their health.

MDG 6: If trade justice is implemented, affordable drugs for curing/ preventing AIDS
 would be accessible. This would lessen the rate of the people with AIDS in
 world.

MDG 7: "Biodiversity" is a global problem that needs global solutions." The
environment should be protected as to prevent exploitation to the right to life. Trade Justice would help restore nature.

MDG 8: This is the most important MDG for it gives meaning to all the other 7.
 It suggests actions to the other MDGs. One of its main goals is to ensure
 the developing countries get enough financial compensation for the goods
 they're selling and that the relationship between these countries and their donors
(richer countries that help them) will have minimum conditions for the help given
 to the developing countries.IV-3 Sexy Kahunashttp://email@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-14449423.post-1129639663894890912005-10-18T20:44:00.000+08:002005-10-18T20:53:50.486+08:00Black holes
BLACK HOLES

Super dense object that has an intense gravitational pull
Used to be huge stars which collapsed because they all used up their energy and died
It has zero volume and infinite density
The term was first used in reference to a star in the last phases of gravitational collapse
Often called as a cosmic vacuum cleaner
Its mass ranges from millions to more than one billion times the mass of the sun
Size is smaller than the original star
Gravitational field is still there although the star itself is not visible anymore
Gravitational field is bigger than the radius of the original star
Gravitational field can be enormous that everything (even light) is drawn.

2 parts:
1. Singularity
2. Event horizon

*a black hole has zero volume because only a small amount is left of the star. The black hole is mostly composed of gravity. (gets b? :) )
*density of the black hole is still debatable. Some say it is infinite, while others say it can't be infinite. :)

I'm not looking for facelift-type results, but I would like to have a little less sagging at the jawline and directly under the chin. I had a mini-lift by a reputable doctor, but the results were mini also. Will Active FX help?
Does Active FX Do Anything to Tighten Jowls or Neck?
Doctor Answers 2
Active FX for neck and jowls
Activ Fx and its companion laser, Deep Fx are fractional CO2 lasers, and are excellent tighteners for sun damaged skin of the neck, face and chest. However they do not adress excess facial and neck fat, so there will not be sufficient tightening in overwieght patients unless done following liposuction.
TotalFX is helpful for skin tightening
TotalFX (combination of ActiveFX and DeepFX) can result in skin tightening in the face and neck area. My patients have been very pleased with the degree of tightening that they have achieved with their treatments.
However, results do vary depending on many factors including on the experience of physician who is doing the procedure. For best results, I recommend you seek a provider who is well versed in use this laser device. I hope my answer was helpful.
These answers are for educational purposes and should not be relied upon as a substitute for medical advice you may receive from your physician. If you have a medical emergency, please call 911. These answers do not constitute or initiate a patient/doctor relationship.

Combined Stem Cell-Gene Therapy Approach Cures Human Genetic Disease in Vitro
Colonies of Fanconi anemia-specific iPS cells stained in green.
Belmonte's team, working with Salk colleague Inder Verma, a professor in the Laboratory of Genetics, and colleagues in Madrid, focused on Fanconi anemia (FA), a genetic disorder responsible for a series of hematological abnormalities that impair the body's ability to fight infection, deliver oxygen, and clot blood.
After taking hair or skin cells from patients with Fanconi anemia, the investigators corrected the defective gene in the patients' cells using gene therapy techniques pioneered in Verma's laboratory. They then successfully reprogrammed the repaired cells into induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells using a combination of transcription factors. The resulting FA-iPS cells were indistinguishable from human embryonic stem cells and iPS cells generated from healthy donors.
Since bone marrow failure as a result of the progressive decline in the numbers of functional hematopoietic stem cells is the most prominent feature of Fanconi anemia, the researchers then tested whether patient-specific iPS cells could be used as a source for transplantable hematopoietic stem cells. They found that FA-iPS cells readily differentiated into hematopoietic progenitor cells primed to differentiate into healthy blood cells.
"We haven't cured a human being, but we have cured a cell," Belmonte explains. "In theory we could transplant it into a human and cure the disease."
A Biochemical Pathway for Blocking Your Worst Fears?
Scientists have found that glutamate, the most prominent neurotransmitter in the brain, plays a key role in the process of "unlearning." The team's study, led by Stephen F. Heinemann, a professor in the Molecular Neurobiology Laboratory, could eventually help scientists develop new drug therapies to treat a variety of disorders, including phobias and anxiety disorders, particularly post-traumatic stress disorder.
"Most studies focus on 'learning,' but the 'unlearning' process is probably just as important and much less understood," says Heinemann. "Most people agree that failure to unlearn is a hallmark of post-traumatic stress disorders and if we had a drug that affects this gene it could help soldiers coming back from the war to unlearn their fear memories."
Post-traumatic stress disorder or PTSD is an anxiety disorder that can develop after exposure to a terrifying event or ordeal in which grave physical harm occurred or was threatened. PTSD affects about 5.2 million Americans, according to the National Institute of Health. As many as one in eight returning soldiers suffer from PTSD.
Scientists Discover How Obesity Increases Risk for Diabetes
Obesity is probably the most important factor in the development of insulin resistance, but science's understanding of the chain of events is still spotty. Now, researchers at the Salk Institute have filled in the gap and identified the missing link between the two. Their findings explain how obesity sets the stage for diabetes and why thin people can become insulin-resistant.
The Salk team, led by Marc Montminy, a professor in the Clayton Foundation Laboratories for Peptide Biology, discovered how a condition known as ER (endoplasmic reticulum) stress, which is induced by a high-fat diet and is overly activated in obese people, triggers aberrant glucose production in the liver, an important step on the path to insulin resistance.
In healthy people, a "fasting switch" only flips on glucose production when blood glucose levels run low during fasting. "The existence of a second cellular signaling cascade-like an alternate route from A to B–that can modulate glucose production, presents the potential to identify new classes of drugs that might help to lower blood sugar by disrupting this alternative pathway," says Montminy.
Stem Cells Provide Clues to Glial Cells Glut
An abundance of glial cells (shown in green) is caused by the synaptojanin-1 protein
The findings, made by a team of scientists led by David Schubert, a professor and head of the Cellular Neurobiology Laboratory, indicate that synaptojanin-1, a central component of the pathway, is essential to production of glia, brain cells that act as neurons' personal assistants. Down's syndrome, spinal cord injury, Alzheimer's disease, and stroke all are linked by an overproduction of glia. Understanding this molecular pathway may also have implications for the onset of glioblastoma, the most common and malignant type of brain tumor.
"The discovery of this molecular signaling pathway promises to completely change the way we think about central nervous system maladies, allowing the development of drugs that inhibit glial proliferation and improve the prognosis of patients with a host of devastating conditions," Schubert says.

"Gliomas are a devastating disease but we still know very little about the underlying disease process," said Thomas. "We can now use the power of Drosophila genetics to uncover genes that drive these tumors and identify novel therapeutic targets, which will speed up the development of effective drugs."
Better models for research into human gliomas are urgently needed. Last year alone, about 21,000 people in the U.S. were diagnosed with brain and nervous system cancers, Senator Edward M. Kennedy the most famous among them.
About 77 percent of malignant brain tumors are gliomas and their prognosis is usually bleak. While they rarely spread to elsewhere in the body, cancerous glial cells quickly infiltrate the brain and grow rapidly, which renders them largely incurable even with current therapies.
Missing Genomic "Fence Posts" Explain Inactivated Tumor Suppressor Genes in Breast Cancer
Scientists led by Beverly Emerson, a professor in the Regulatory Biology Laboratory, have found that a breakdown in molecular fences blurs the lines between genomic neighborhoods and leads to the inactivation of at least two tumor suppressor genes. Their findings explain how a single event can put a cell on the road to becoming a tumor cell.
Tumors result when changes in the genome activate cancer-causing genes or inactivate tumor suppressor genes that tip this delicate balance in favor of uncontrolled cell growth. In many different types of cancers, the tumor suppressor gene p16 gets buried deep inside heterochromatin, a tightly condensed structure that protects DNA. As a result, it cannot be read by the transcription machinery and is unable keep watch over cell growth.
Most people looked for clues within the immediate vicinity of the gene but came up empty-handed. When postdoctoral researcher Michael Witcher extended his search further upstream, however, he discovered a binding site for CTCF, short for CCCTC-binding factor, which forms the centerpiece of the molecular fence posts that separate heterochromatin from the rest of the genome.
"We found that the binding of this protein is lost from several binding sites in numerous types of cancer cells, leading to the collapse of the molecular boundary," he says. "Once the boundary was gone, the adjacent heterochromatin encroached and silenced the nearest gene."
Further experiments revealed that CTCF was missing because it lacked a chemical modification known as "PARlation," lab lingo for poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation, which allows the protein to bind to select sites in the genome.
"Without PARlation, CTCF fails to form the complex necessary to regulate p16 and the tumor suppressor RASSF1A and possibly others, explaining why breast cancer cells always contain both silenced p16 and silenced RASSF1A," says Witcher.

LONDON – Google boss Eric Schmidt said Monday that the tech giant had developed new technology that makes it harder to find images of child sexual abuse.
Writing in the British newspaper the Daily Mail, Google's executive chairman said more than 100,000 searches will no longer feature such material in their results.
The restrictions will initially apply to English-speaking countries but will be expanded to the rest of the world and 158 other languages within six months.
The announcement came ahead of Monday's Internet Safety Summit at Prime Minister David Cameron's Downing Street office, where Google and Microsoft will be joined by other Internet firms.
Schmidt said that in the last three months, Google had more than 200 staffers working on developing new technology to tackle the problem. Warnings are now showing at the top of results for more than 13,000 searches. The alerts also make clear that child sexual abuse is illegal and give advice on where to get help.
He also said Google had developed technology that allowed illegal videos to be "tagged" so all duplicate copies can be removed across the Web.

Trainer Lynn Chleborad reached the 1,000-career win milestone March 14 at Oaklawn Park when The Rocks Rolls won the last of 10 races under jockey Alex Birzer.
Tim Ritchey and Beverly Frazier's Dancing Afleet upset the $300,000 Delaware Oaks (gr. II) at Delaware Park on July 13, winning her third straight race while getting her first graded stakes victory at odds of 9-1.
Tell a Great Story could move from stakes winner to graded victress with a win in the $300,000 Delaware Oaks (gr. II) at Delaware Park. But Ile St. Molly is one of eight who stand in her way.
The July 13 grade II stakes worth $300,000 will feature a rematch between Tell a Great Story and Ile St. Molly as a field of nine 3-year-old fillies line up in the 1 1/16-mile contest at Delaware Park.
The only stakes on the May 3 card to draw a maximum 14-horse field was not the Kentucky Oaks. It was another race for 3-year-old fillies, the Eight Belles Presented by Xerox (gr. III), with undefeated Calistoga favored.
Rose to Gold put away heavily favored Flashy Gray in the stretch for a gate-to-wire triumph under Calvin Borel in the $150,000 Honeybee Stakes (gr. III) March 9 at Oaklawn Park.
Flashy Gray, the 6-1 favorite in the recent Kentucky Oaks Future Wager pool, makes her stakes and two-turn debut in the $150,000 Honeybee Stakes (gr. III) March 9 at Oaklawn Park.
An overflow field of 14 juvenile fillies including stakes winners Sweet Redemption, American Sugar and Gold Edge passed the entry box for the $150,000 Arlington-Washington Lassie (gr. III), run at a one-turn mile Sept. 8.
Favored Brave Dave overcame a bad stumble at the start to register a front-running victory in the $100,000 Sapling Stakes (gr. III) Sept. 2 at Monmouth Park.
Blueeyesintherein kept her young record a perfect two-for-two when she won the $112,200 Debutante Stakes (gr. III) at Churchill Downs June 23, giving trainer Gary Simms a second consecutive Debutante score.
Blueeyesintherein, by Magna Graduate, appears to be a chip off the old block. The juvenile filly broke her maiden at first asking at Churchill Downs.

LinkedIn evolves with focus on channels
When I consult clients or work with students seeking a career in professional communications, the professional social media platform LinkedIn is one of the first places I point to as a place to start.
With resume information in hand, a profile on LinkedIn can be built, including previous work experience, a portfolio of projects, and a summary of who you are as part of your profession. Unlike Facebook, which is more "working to live" with your updates to friends and family members, LinkedIn is "living to work" with updates for those you are networked with.
This week, LinkedIn updated its "LinkedIn Today," which works much like a wire newsfeed on a business-based magazine site does. Individuals can follow different channels, and influencers that provide insights into the different industries they are leaders in. Sir Richard Branson, Angie from Angie's List and others can be followed without being connected to them within your own network.
Inside LinkedIn Today, a person can customize their feed by choosing among a number of channels, including, Best Advice, Leadership & Management, Customer Service and Marketing Strategies, among others. The Technology channel already has the largest following with more than a million followers.
Although, the features don't work like the old Google RSS aggregators would, the new offering does have the potential to bring more sticky items to a person's feed. As in the digital media world, the site that has features that cause people to spend more time on the site, it also has the potential to earn the most revenue from digital ads.
In social media circles, there is a ton of prognostication of which sites will make the right moves to draw in larger audiences, and which ones will fade away. Before Facebook launched its mobile Home project, it was the most popular site to rag on. Now, many of those so-called experts have fallen silent.
Truth of the matter is, the social platform that has a narrow focus and purpose, while offering easy-to-use features to keep people coming back, will win the race. It will also earn the bullseye on its back, with everyone else trying to knock it off the No. 1 pedestal.
THIS FALL: As expected, following the Fox Upfront on Wednesday, presenting its stable of new shows for the fall, rival network NBC started leaking out details to media outlets before its own Upfront set for Monday.
Right off the bat, and to little surprise, "Parks and Recreation" has been renewed for a sixth season. The peacock, which finished in fifth place behind CBS, Fox, ABC and Univision last fall, also leaked out some of the new programs it has ordered.
NBC is the second network to announce a new JJ Abrams program, with "Believe," a story about a 10-year-old orphan with special powers. Gillian Anderson of "X-Files" fame, has a new vehicle with "Crisis." The action-thriller is about a group of Washington, D.C., students taken hostage to get at their high-powered parents.
Three comedies have also been announced, the most notable being "Sean Saves the World" with "Will and Grace" regular Sean Hayes.

Southern Cross is understood to be pushing for a three-year agreement, to replace the existing one that has lasted for a decade and expires on June 30.
However, it is believed Ten has argued for a shorter time frame which would give it greater flexibility in the event the controversial reach rule, preventing television mergers, is scrapped.
This is becoming increasingly likely, as the parliamentary committee set up to determine the future of the reach rule will recommend – in a final report due today – that the rule be abolished.
However, the joint select committee will also recommend that legal safeguards be put in place to ensure a significant amount of local TV production, especially news, is protected.
The rule prevents a TV licence holder from reaching more than 75 per cent of the population, and so prevents metropolitan TV networks from merging with regional broadcasters.
Coalition likely to scrap reach rule
Although the television industry generally does not expect the Labor government to scrap the reach rule in the final sitting week of Parliament this week, before the September 14 election, many industry players believe it is likely an incoming Coalition government would remove it over the medium term.
Consensus is building that a two-year time frame for a Coalition government to introduce legislation to scrap the rule is feasible.
This view has firmed since
It is understood Ten wants to keep its options open regarding mergers, and that the political momentum surrounding the reach rule has been a factor in its decision-making.
It appears that part of the reason Southern Cross wants a three-year deal with Ten is to give the TV and radio broadcaster clear air when it renegotiates a critical $725 million debt facility that matures in March 2015. The company incurred the debt as a result of its acquisition of metropolitan radio broadcaster Austereo in 2011. A shorter time frame might prove problematic when negotiating with financiers, as its program supply and cash flows could be uncertain. Southern Cross, whose chairman
If it does not, and it continues to take Ten's programs, Southern Cross will incur a penalty, its affiliate fee of 29 per cent of TV advertising revenue will automatically rise by 25 per cent.
This would raise Southern Cross's fee to 36 per cent of TV ad revenue.
It is believed Ten is pushing for Southern Cross to increase its fee beyond 29 per cent of revenue under the new deal.
WIN agreed to pay Nine 36 per cent of its TV regional ad revenue under their new deal (up from 33 per cent), which, with additional content charges, rises to an effective 39 per cent.
WIN open to mergers
Bermuda-based billionaire
Nine and WIN held merger talks earlier this year.
Nine was also in merger and affiliation discussions with Southern Cross. This raised the ire of Ten, in particular that of new chief executive
Southern Cross is also in discussions with billionaire Kerry Stokes's
Even though Southern Cross's main regional affiliation deal is with Ten, it also has program supply agreements with the Seven Network and Nine in some markets.

Does anyone know anything about these "beneficial" bugs? I am not used to seeing praying mantis with such big black eyes. Does this denote perhaps a mature mantis, or is it an unusual species?
Thanks, Snug, :p)
Praying Mantis - The Eyes are Huge
Maybe female Stagmomantis carolina? "Head and thorax almost as long as the body. Antennae about half as long as middle legs. Pale green to brownish grey, often inconspicuous on vegetation. Males usually brown, females green or brown. Wings do not extend to tip of abdomen, especially in female. (Females apparently flightless, or nearly so.) Abdomen of female strongly widened in middle." I'm not sure about VA, but my understanding is that the only other kind in the Carolinas is a really huge chinese one, so pretty much always if you see one, it's Carolina mantis. I think maybe green eyes is more common, but just googling images shows some brown and black ones.
I think those are pretty typical mantis eyes. Probably they look bigger because of the color contrast.
I certainly appreciate your detailed response!! I am fascinated with the eyes. We have quite a few babies in our yard
Thanks, Snug, :o)
Might want to take down your hummingbird feeders. :)
Thanks for sending the article on the Praying Mantis' secret side. It's very interesting and reveals another side to this benign (?) insect. I am inclined now after reading your article that the praying mantis may have caused the demise of a monarch butterfly, whose wings I saw lying on the ground beside our butterfly bush!
Thanks, Snug
That is a Chinese Mantis. Female Chinese Mantids are not wingless. Their wings extend all the way to the tip of the abdomen. I cannot tell if that is a female. It is a older nymph.

The General Assembly finds that it is necessary to establish a centralized program for business registration and licensing in order to make it convenient and easy for businesses, especially small businesses, to use. The General Assembly also finds that it is necessary to establish a procedure which will reduce the total number of licenses required to do business in this State. This can be accomplished by development of a computerized system capable of storing, retrieving and exchanging license information as well as issuing and renewing master licenses while at the same time allowing the authority for determining if any requested license shall be issued to remain with the agency authorized to issue the license.
§ 10302 Definitions.
As used in this chapter:
(1) "Board of Review" means the body established to review policies and rules adopted by the Delaware Economic Development Office for carrying out this chapter.
(2) "License" means the whole or part of any agency permit, license, certificate, approval, registration, charter or any form or permission required by law, including agency rule, to engage in any activity.
(3) "Master license" means the document designed for public display issued by the system which certifies individual state agency approval for licenses the State requires for any person subject to this chapter.
(4) "Person" means any individual, sole proprietorship, partnership, association, cooperative, corporation, nonprofit organization, State or local government agency and any other organization required to register with the State to do business in the State and to obtain 1 or more licenses from the State or any of its agencies.
(5) "System" means the business registration and licensing center established by this chapter and located in and under the administrative control of the Delaware Economic Development Office.
64 Del. Laws, c. 12, § 1; 69 Del. Laws, c. 458, § 1.;
§ 10303 Feasibility study authorized; duties; agencies to review licenses; development plan; rules and regulations.
(a) The Delaware Economic Development Office is directed to study the feasibility of a business registration and licensing system.
(b) The duties of the system shall be:
(1) To establish a service not later than 60 days after February 8, 1983, that will provide information to persons detailing all state licenses required to engage in business in this State and the locations for applying for those licenses;
(2) To adopt a common system of identifying businesses for licensing purposes for all state agencies prior to July 1, 1985. This common system of identification shall consist of the federal employer's identification number or the applicant's social security number;
(3) To recommend to the General Assembly not later than 6 months after February 8, 1983, criteria for evaluation of existing and proposed forms of licensing authorization;
(4) To develop not later than December 1, 1983, a plan for a computerized system capable of storing, retrieving and exchanging license information as well as issuing and renewing master licenses in an efficient manner;
(5) The Division of Revenue of the Department of Finance will develop a system to integrate license fee payment and renewal for various business and occupational licenses with the business license system currently administered by the Division of Revenue. Initially selected licenses administered by the Alcoholic Beverage Control Commission, the Division of Professional Regulation of the Department of State and the Motor Fuel Tax Administration of the Department of Transportation will be included in the initial implementation of the consolidated license system. The Director of the Division of Revenue will report on these consolidation efforts to the General Assembly by March 31, 1985. Nothing in this section will restrict, alter or modify the regulatory authority of the Alcoholic Beverage Control Commission, the Division of Professional Regulation or the Motor Fuel Tax Administration.
(c) All annual business licenses that charge a fee less than $10 annually shall become licenses renewed for a term of 3 years on January 1, 1985, or on the date of first renewal date after January 1, 1985. The license fee for the 3-year period shall be established at a rate equal to 3 times the current annual fee and each license will be effective for a 3-year period.
(d) The plan for developing the system shall include a phased approach approved by the Director that:
(1) Will include a feasibility study;
(2) Will provide for an evaluation of alternatives and the costs associated with each alternative;
(3) Will have interagency procedures for effectuating the system;
(4) Will have selected those licenses which will be included in the initial implementation of the system and the date and manner in which the licenses will be integrated into the system;
(5) Will have a cost benefit analysis of the final implementation of this chapter.
(e) The Director shall adopt such rules and regulations as under state statute are necessary to effectuate the purposes of this chapter.

I think I can now prove it. We want to show that:
Gamma[1/4]^2 == 4*EllipticF[Pi/4, 2]*Sqrt[2*Pi])
First, we shal start with some identities which Mathematica can prove.
FullSimplify[EllipticK[z] == (Pi/2)*Hypergeometric2F1[1/2, 1/2, 1,
z], Abs[z] < 1]
FullSimplify[Unevaluated[Gamma[1/4]^2/(4*Sqrt[Pi]) == (Pi/2)
*Hypergeometric2F1[1/2, 1/2, 1, 1/2]]]
This leads us to
which is what I wrote above, was equivalent to the result you wanted
proved. Let us demonstrate that. First, by definition of EllipticK
Now we refer to page 593 of Abramowitz and Stegun:
EllipticF[theta, m] == Sqrt[m]*EllipticF[phi, m^(-1)]
where Sin[phi] == m^(1/2)*Sin[theta]
this gives us
EllipticK[1/2]==EllipticF[Pi/2,1/2]==Sqrt[2] * EllipticF[Pi/4,2]
(Mathematica can't prove the last relationship because it always
reduced EllipticF[Pi/2,a] to EllipticK[a] but you can do:
N[EllipticF[Pi/2, 1/2] - Sqrt[2]*EllipticF[Pi/4, 2], 100] // Chop)
which gives us:
Gamma[1/4]^2/(4*Sqrt[Pi]) ==Sqrt[2] * EllipticF[Pi/4,2]
which is what you wanted to prove.

Bimmerworld PowerFlex Front Control Arm Bushing Upgrade.
As many E46Fanatics members know, the front control arm bushings have never been quite right from the factory. Reports of 30,000 miles or less from the bushings are common place and dealerships charging a fortune for replacement. If that isnt bad enough, factory bushing cannot be reused if the control arm has to be replaced because of bad ball joints, another common E46 chassis maintenance item. In addition to poor durability, the factory bushings are made of soft rubber, designed for ride comfort over performance. This leads to inconsistent suspension geometry under corner and braking loads.
The harder, more ridged properties of urethane bushings hold the front control arm in place without the slop of factory rubber. When the control arm is allowed to move, the suspension geometry changes, giving you less control. Key benefits to upgrade bushings include improved performance under braking load and sharper turn-in characteristics.
As every Fanatic and car nut knows, aftermarket companies are where to turn when the factory blows it. In this case, I turned to James Clay at Bimmerworld for help. Bimmerworld is an enthusiast owned company that prides itself on driving and helping their customers drive BMWs at the limit. James promptly answered my plea for help with information on their soon-to-be released Powerflex two part polyurethane replacement bushings.
The Bimmerworld Powerflex bushings are a direct press in replacement bushing for the factory oil filled rubber and failure prone ones. Bimmerworld was getting the first shipment of bushings in a couple weeks and I secured a set of 60mm bushings for my 01/01 production 330i.
When the bushings arrived I could not wait to install them. The fit and finish on the mold was top notch and the two part construction was slick. I checked with Bimmerworld about the installation process and reviewed the Bentley manual as well. From my past do-it-yourself experiences, I was ready to give this a try. As a warning, the installation of these bushings is not simple with out the correct tools.
The factory rubber bushings are inside a steel sleeve, which is pressed into an aluminum carrier. Most of the installation is simple wrenching, but starts to get tricky when you need to remove the bushings from the control arm and the bushings from the carrier. The rubber bushings tend to get stuck on the control arms; hence, they cannot be reused. After cutting the stock bushings in two pieces, I used a three jaw puller to remove the remaining part from the control arm. I then faced the task of pushing the steel sleeve containing the remaining bushing part out of the carrier. Up until this point, an average do-it-yourselfer should be fine. I would recommend having a proper bushing tool, a shop with a proper press remove them, or buying new carriers for about $100.
After much frustration, swearing, and some help from Bimmerworld I devised a backyard mechanic solution that, while not elegant, worked. With the stock bushings out, the polyurethane bushings pressed in quickly. You can review my entire do-it-yourself project to install the powerflex bushings in the DIY forum here at E46fanatics.com - DIY busing install link. I bolted everything back together and got the car back on its wheels. Now it was time for a test drive.
Nearby, there is a rather nice right hand sweeping corner that is a blast to drive. However, right in the middle of the corner the road has a series of slight bumps. With the factory bushings I could feel the car slop over these bumps, effectively ruining the corner. I headed straight for this corner to see what the bushings were all about.
What an amazing difference! Hitting these mid-corner bumps with speed the car felt solid and planted throughout the entire turn. It was an amazing change from the unsettling feeling the stock bushings presented. In addition to improvements on bumpy roads, the car feels solidly connected to the wheels and the road. I was also happy that there were virtually no unpleasant vibrations transmitted by the new bushings. This is one aftermarket product that offers upgraded performance with no draw backs!
If you are looking to improve road and handling characteristics and driver feel or are simply tried of constantly replacing poorly made stock bushings, then look no further than Bimmerworlds urethane front control arm bushings!
UPDATE: 1/15/2006 - Bimmerworld is now offering the Powerflex bushings already pressed into new housings making for an easy installation and you no longer need to measure your existing housing size! Bimmerworld uses the newest spec 66mm bushing and housing for the pre-pressed pieces. Typical shop labor to press the old bushings out and the new in will cost as much as these housings.
Purchase your bushings and housings at bimmerworld's online store here.
UPDATE: 2/1/2006 - With over 20 thousand miles put on the bimmerworld Powerflex bushings I am pleased to report that I have had zero issues! No noise, clunking or any other issues that some members have had from other Urethane bushings. As I was recently replacing my front control arms as standard maintenance (read the review here - Control Arm Maintenance) I had a chance to inspect the bushings up close. Besides being dirty they are in exactly the condition I installed them in. As an added benefit of the powerflex bushings I did not have to replace them when I installed my new control arm. OEM bushings cannot be reused so each time the control arms need replacing (roughly every 60 thousand miles on the E46) I would also need new bushings. Instead I can continue to use the same set of Powerflex bushings. In addition to give me better handling and performance the bushings are now saving me money.

But the role of the Vatican under the last two popes called pius lodges deep in that responsibility.
The Vatican maintains that pius worked behind the scenes to save victims of the Holocaust.
Kertzer credits John Paul II with opening the files on the pius XI papacy, in 2002, which made him decide to embark upon the book.
In 1814, Pope pius VII restored the Jesuits—but not all countries followed suit.
The defenders of Pope pius XII argue that he worked diplomatically to save the lives of thousands of Jews.
pius again laboured to infuse his own spirit into the monarchs of Christendom.
Tzankoff and various other people went to Rome, where pius ix.
When Philip doubted how to deal with the troubles in the Netherlands, pius bade him deal with them by force of arms.
One of the most remarkable of those efforts was made by pius IV.

Boeing Said to Plan New 787 Battery So Jet Can Fly Soon
Boeing Co. (BA) will present a battery redesign for the 787 Dreamliner tomorrow in a bid to satisfy regulators' safety concerns and get the jet back into the air within weeks, people with knowledge of the proposal said.
The plan includes adding insulation around the lithium-ion battery's individual cells, said the people, who weren't authorized to discuss the matter and asked not to be identified. The battery will also have a venting mechanism for fumes and a more robust case made with heat-resistant glass to contain fires, the people said.
Boeing is developing kits so the new batteries can be swapped in for the old ones, fitting in the same space in the planes, the people said. The new units may also have a system that lets pilots monitor individual battery cells, they said.
A team led by Boeing Commercial Airplanes President Ray Conner is scheduled to meet in Washington with the U.S. Federal Aviation Administration, including Administrator Michael Huerta, the people said. Any repairs would be subject to FAA approval, and the agency isn't expected to act immediately unless tests show the fixes can ensure safety, the people said.
The battery changes also would need the backing of U.S. Transportation Secretary Ray LaHood, who has said the 787 won't fly again until the U.S. is "1,000 percent sure" it's safe.
Marc Birtel, a spokesman for Chicago-based Boeing, declined to say whether a meeting has been scheduled with the FAA or to comment on the company's plans.
'Close Communication'
"We have been in close communication with the regulatory and investigative authorities since the 787 issue arose," he said. "Everyone is working to get to the answer as quickly as possible and good progress is being made."
United Continental Holdings Inc. (UAL) signaled today that it expects a lengthier process than Boeing's goal of getting the Dreamliner back into service in March, saying that it's removing the model from its flight schedule through June 5. Chicago-based United is the only U.S. carrier with 787s in its fleet.
The FAA grounded the Dreamliner on Jan. 16 following a fire on a Japan Airlines Co. (9201) 787 parked in Boston the week before and a battery fault that triggered an emergency landing in Japan by an All Nippon Airways Co. (9202) jet.
Boeing rose 1.6 percent to $76.01 at the close in New York. That pared the stock's decline to 2.2 percent since Jan. 4, the last trading day before the fire on the Japan Airlines plane. GS Yuasa Corp. (6674), the battery maker, jumped 8 percent to 352 yen in Tokyo in the biggest gain since November 2011.
Dreamliner Deliveries
Ending the grounding is pivotal for Boeing and the airlines that have taken delivery of the first 49 planes. Boeing wants to resume shipments of more than 800 Dreamliners still on order, and restarting flights would let carriers end the aircraft shuffle used to replace their parked 787s.
Boeing will propose a more fire-resistant box to house the eight lithium-ion cells in each of the 787's two batteries, the people said. Boeing engineers also want to use a tubing system to vent battery fumes or smoke, they said.
One of the two batteries on each Dreamliner is used to start the auxiliary power unit if the jet is on the ground without a power source, and another provides a backup in case the 787's electrical system fails during flight.
The Dreamliner, which entered service in late 2011, helps conserve fuel by replacing the pneumatic system with electricity. The aircraft uses five times as much electrical power as the 767, enough to light 400 homes. It's the only airliner equipped with large lithium-ion batteries.
Satellite Engineers
Boeing's satellite business, which has long used lithium- ion batteries, has sent 20 of its top engineers to assist with the 787 work, Boeing Defense President Dennis Muilenburg said today in a presentation at a Barclays Plc conference. All of Boeing's operations have deployed their best engineers and "made assets available" to the commercial-jet team, he said.
The U.S. National Transportation Safety Board concluded that a short-circuit in a battery cell led to the Jan. 7 fire in Boston, which spread to other cells. The reason for the short hasn't been identified, NTSB Chairman Debbie Hersman said Jan. 24.
All eight of the battery cells on the ANA Dreamliner sustained thermal damage, Japan Transport Safety Board chief Norihiro Goto said yesterday. Damage to the electrodes may have been caused by overheating from thermal runaway within the cell. He said further investigation is needed.
The FAA approved Boeing's battery in 2007 under "special conditions" prohibiting hazardous gas from accumulating in the plane if a battery overheated or caught fire. It also said a fire couldn't be allowed to damage critical equipment or the aircraft's structure.

Sunroof Drain Clog - Flood

Hello All,
We have just acquired an '09 528 for my wife and an '09 535Xi (wagon) for me. After reading about the sunroof drain issue (and having had similar issues on both of our previous E39s), I attempted to test the drains on both of our cars yesterday. Either they are both fine, or they both have problems in all four corners... Basically, I poured water in the outside tracks while having the cars on an incline (I did both directions). The water disappears quickly and seems to drain out in the door jambs in front of the front doors, and from an unknown place right behind the rear wheels. In both cases, the water seems to just "come out of the body" somewhere. Are these the correct locations for the water to drain, or do I need to look into this further?

We've all seen movie trailers—we've seen them all the time. Sometimes they're boring, sometimes they're painful, and sometimes they get us interested in that next big film that we absolutely must see. There's a way to do these things, and in modern times, trailers have become damn near formulaic.
However, there is a very, very select batch of trailers that go one step further: they expertly play with our expectations, offer completely new ways to look at a forthcoming film, and sometimes feature no actual footage from the film itself.
It is for this reason that I am submitting to you, dear reader, three utterly spectacular movie trailers that are a cut above the rest. Sometimes these trailers have more of a lasting impact than the films themselves—yet are there even better ones than this?
Let's start with the trailer for Wes Craven's 2005 B-movie Red Eye starring Cilian Murphy & Rachel McAdams. Although the film was decent enough (especailly once you accept it as a B-movie), the trailer was brilliant, starting off as the trailer for every romantic comedy film you've ever seen, before its brilliant, expertly-timed twist ...
The following year, director Todd Field returned from his too-long hiatus after In the Bedroom to unleash the gripping suburban drama Little Children, which featured Oscar-nominated turns from both Kate Winslet and Jackie Earle Haley. The trailer, however, was a Master Class in film editing, using brilliant cross-cuts, a minimal use of dialogue, and the unnerving sound of an approaching train to build to a powerful, dramatic climax.
Last but not least, 2002's Jerry Seinfeld documentary Comedian was a film that ultimately fell short of its potential, contrasting Seinfeld's attempt to revive his stand-up life with the work of another young comic who came off as more arrogant than he was talented. That said, neither appear anywhere in the film's brilliant lead-up trailer, which—instead of featuring any clips from the actual film—features movie voiceover staple Hal Douglas in the role of a lifetime.
So how about it readers? Do these trailers still hold up all these years laters? What other trailers have truly gone above and beyond to stand the test of time? (And, most importantly, will they ever be better than The Apple?)

Subject:::REVE Systems Introduces Secondary Layer Authentication in iTel Switch Plus - Internet Telephony
"Just relax! Even if the world knows your password." This is the message being sent to softswitch users from REVE Systems, a well-known software solutions provider in the VoIP industry. Due to the increase in unauthorized login attempts and hacking incidents in the VoIP industry, softswitch users have been careful and are constantly monitoring their softswitches.
Industry participants often complain of hacking as one of the major challenges they face in running their VoIP systems smoothly and profitably. In order to mitigate such risks from VoIP operations, REVE Systems has launched the iTel Security Device as a secondary level of authentication for iTel Switch Plus customers and to better protect them from hacking and phishing incidents.
The iTel Switch Plus Security offering is an electronic device that generates a one-time password (OTP) which a user must enter when logging in to the iTel Switch Plus. This OTP provides a secondary level of authentication in addition to the standard username and password combination. The special feature generates a unique code, different from the previous codes. Now, even if someone mistakenly or maliciously finds out a username and password, they will not be able to login to the softswitch account without also entering the security code... Read More

ZixFS is a simple embedded file storage based on a Zip file structure. It has been developed as an alternative to GridFS, but is still not on par with it. The main objective is to provide a powerful filesystem under a Windows 32-bit environment, with the capability of handling terabytes of data, which is not offered by GridFS. The original ZipStorer class library was developed Jaime Olivares.
WallShuffle allows you to regularly change your wallpaper. You select a folder, then select a duration to apply a random picture as a desktop background. You can start the program in minimized mode with the "-m" argument, if you don't want to see it, or even hide the icon from the tray and forget it.
Ambit uses Bash brace expansion to expand and list hostnames or commands. Ambit is first and foremost meant to be a general purpose hostlist enumerator for use by other applications or scripts. Ambit can be used to manage HostGroups from the context of a user, a system, or a network. Ambit is also able to enumerate and execute commands that contain expandable elements. Commands passed to Ambit are expanded into separate statements and executed synchronously. This means Ambit can expand and execute just about anything on the command-line and often works in situations where Bash brace expansion would probably fail.
