WTB: PC image analysis program/routine
Hi All !
We have images of surfaces and would like to find
a PC program that calculates the density of
dots in the image. These dots are not the colour
pixels and typically occupy several hundred pixels. The
dots are distinguished by their intensity. The task is
much like counting the number of stars in a photo of the
night sky. Could write a program to do it but there
MUST be several out there already !
Data format is .hdf (Hierarchical Data Format). We're
interested in all programs since we may be able to change
the data format.
WINDOWS software would be perfect but someone's personal
routine is just fine. I wrote programs to do this myself
a couple of years ago but they're in the wrong language !
please reply via e-mail

CAP IASLC AMP Molecular Testing Guideline
The College of American Pathologists (CAP), the International Association for the Study of Lung Cancer (IASLC), and the Association for Molecular Pathology (AMP) have developed an evidence-based guideline, "Molecular Testing Guideline for the Selection of Lung Cancer Patients for EGFR and ALK Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitors," which establishes standards for EGFR and ALK testing, helping to guide targeted therapies. The guideline was released on April 3, 2013, in Archives of Pathology & Laboratory Medicine, the Journal of Thoracic Oncology, and the Journal of Molecular Diagnostics.

Green High School is getting closer to deciding what it wants to do with regards to its athletics.
The options are staying in the Suburban League or joining in the Federal League.
"We are meeting with the Suburban League and the Federal League on Thursday," Principal Cindy Brown said Monday. "That is when we can get everybody together. We hope to make a decision as soon as we can. This is an important decision. We want to do what is best for the kids."
When asked if she expected a decision by mid-to-late-August, she said: "There is no deadline. We would hope that we would come to a conclusion soon."
Brown said representatives from the Suburban League and Federal League will come Thursday to talk at Green.
Green is a charter member of the Suburban League, which was started in 1949. The original five members of the league are Copley, Greensburg (now Green), Hudson, Manchester and Northfield-Macedonia (now Nordonia).
The Suburban League currently has eight members: Green, Copley, Nordonia, Cloverleaf, Highland, Revere, Tallmadge and Wadsworth.
The Federal League has six members: Canton McKinley, GlenOak, Jackson, Lake, North Canton Hoover and Perry.
There have been discussions about possibly having two conferences/divisions within the Suburban League based no enrollment, a larger and a smaller.
A total of 13 schools have been linked to possibly joining the Suburban League. The schools are: Hudson, Stow, Cuyahoga Falls, Twinsburg, Medina, Barberton, Aurora, Kent Roosevelt, Kenston, Brecksville-Broadview Heights, North Royalton, Solon and Ravenna.

5 Star workers
Watch Marco Piazza speaking in the Council Chamber on the topic of BredaMenariniBus (05:47)
>>>Today, 14 February, at 5:30 pm Im in Susas piazza della Repubblica. Tomorrow, 15 February, at 5:00 pm Im in Ivreas Piazza Ottinetti, and at 9:00 pm Im in Novaras piazza Martiri. Follow the live broadcasts on La Cosa! >>>
The PD is annoyed that we are committed to saving the company that we feel is really important and strategic for our city of Bologna but also for our country. Were talking about BredaMenariniBus. Rita Ghedini, the PDs candidate, said that its a serious issue (so is it something we cannot deal with seriously?) and she adds: "It strikes me that someone is affected by the election campaign schizophrenia." I would like to point out that we have been concerned with the issue of BredaMenariniBus in Bologna for many months, well before the election campaign. The records show dates in 2012, for instance theres our questionin Question Time in November. I would like to point out to the member of the Senate, Ms Ghedini that we are working alongside many other workers and companies that are experiencing difficult times such as Verlicchi, ATC sosta, the Town Halls employees, the workers of the citys theatre, the doctors and professionals in the Maggiore Hospital, the temporary workers in the schools and so on. Is it suggested that we should suspend these activities during an election campaign? In order to save BredaMenariniBus and to save our country today, we need all the "positive" forces to collaborate for a good outcome. Things that are of no use at all and that are not helping the issue include: worrying about putting up flags, marking out territory, and sending "memos to the FIOM Trade Union" that is simply doing its job. I would like to ask Ms Ghedini to put aside the anxieties that have recently been mounting up in relation to the 5 Star MoVement, and continue to do her part to get this strategic company moving once more. This is a critical moment. It is important to unite our energies. Theres no time to waste. We are up for it. If you want, we can work together to save Breda, otherwise, you can bicker among yourselves." Marco Piazza, M5S, regional councillor in Bologna

FreedomWorks tea party group nearly falls apart in fight between old and new guard
The day after Labor Day, just as campaign season was entering its final frenzy, FreedomWorks, the Washington-based tea party organization, went into free fall.
Richard K. Armey, the groups chairman and a former House majority leader, walked into the groups Capitol Hill offices with his wife, Susan, and an aide holstering a handgun at his waist. The aim was to seize control of the group and expel Armeys enemies: The gun-wielding assistant escorted FreedomWorkss top two employees off the premises, while Armey suspended several others who broke down in sobs at the news.
The coup lasted all of six days. By Sept. 10, Armey was gone with a promise of $8 million and the five ousted employees were back. The force behind their return was Richard J. Stephenson, a reclusive Illinois millionaire who has exerted increasing control over one of Washingtons most influential conservative grass-roots organizations.
Stephenson, the founder of the for-profit Cancer Treatment Centers of America and a director on the FreedomWorks board, agreed to commit $400,000 per year over 20 years in exchange for Armeys agreement to leave the group.
The episode illustrates the growing role of wealthy donors in swaying the direction of FreedomWorks and other political groups, which increasingly rely on unlimited contributions from corporations and financiers for their financial livelihood. Such gifts are often sent through corporate shells or nonprofit groups that do not have to disclose their donors, making it impossible for the public to know who is funding them.

2. I instantly disliked the TV commercials, they seemed slimey.
They undoubtedly cook their stats, and profit from the deaths of people that they turn from conventional treatment.

Is your go-to guy

Response to
Who repairs/services GAMO's?
If not look up RichinMich. He did Gamo's for years, don't know what his status is here with the Yellow, but google him.
If he is going out of business, I can tell you how I do it......
I have a big stationary vise ready and locked down.
Take a propane torch and heat the thread side of the pivot screw, be careful, heat slowly so you dont mess up the finish. Action needs to be out of the gun for this, BTW. Also take the breech seal out, might melt it.
Once heated to where it feels very warm to the touch, almost hot.
Insert whole action into vise, barrel up. Make sure that outside dia. of lockdown screw is just above top of jaws. Cinch the vise down and get it tight, be careful here and go slow, too much, you will bend the ears. Too loose, and you wont get any pressure relief.
Take a screwdriver of the exact size, and insert into the flat screw, and push with all your weight on it, while turning the handle counterclockwise with a set of channel locks.
Once the screw is out, you will need to drive out the screw sleeve, and then your detent should pop right out. I just grab the spring and strech it a little, polish the ends then lube it up.
You can replace it, though.
Hope this helps,
God bless,

For the first time this season Fernando Alonso goes into a grand prix weekend as favourite, according to the players of the Castrol EDGE Grand Prix Predictor.
The Ferrari driver, who scored his first victory of the year in China last weekend, is currently the man deemed most likely to be the first to score multiple victories in 2013, with 34 per cent of users selecting him compared to 33 per cent choosing world championship leader Sebastian Vettel.
The Red Bull driver has been the overwhelming favourite going in to the first three races.
Both Kimi Raikkonen and Lewis Hamilton are considered outsiders, according to GPP's players, with 12 and nine per cent respectively.
Grand Prix Predictor ambassador Karun Chandhok also reckons Alonso is a good shout for victory: "With only a week between races, China is a pretty good form guide for Bahrain, so Alonso and Ferrari look like they're in great shape."
Another GPP expert, former Toyota and Marussia racer Timo Glock, says Raikkonen could walk away with another win.
"The Lotus was a real weapon in Bahrain last year," he said, "so I'm going for Raikkonen as the winner ahead of Vettel and Alonso."
The Castrol EDGE Grand Prix predictor is free to play and offers you the chance to test your knowledge against like-minded F1 fans and the chance to win prizes like the Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 in every race. Sign up to play here.

You look like a man now! How much do you weigh now compared to what you weighed in high school?
"(Laugh) I am about 243 now. I put on a little weight."
A little weight? It's all muscle now.
"(Smile) Yeah, I was about 220-something in high school. I'm about 243 now."
How has that added weight affected you on field. Have you lost any quickness?
"Not really. Most of it is leg weight, muscle, which helps me get moving, moving faster. I'm actually getting faster."
Are you about where you want to be weight-wise?
"Yeah, I'm good right now."
His is more of a joke but I told you about the movie Begin Again. (The Maroon 5's) Adam Levine has a beard similar to yours in that movie. Have you seen that movie?
"Yeah, I have seen bits and pieces of it."
Is he copying you or are you copying him?
"He's probably copying me (laugh)."
Last year you weren't completely new to the game because you had that redshirt year. This year, you have a year of experience playing in the SEC and playing in a lot of games. How much is that different for you?
"It is going to be a lot different. I kind of felt more comfortable toward the end of the year. I felt better with what I am doing. This year is really a big year for me. It is going to be a lot different. I pretty much know what is going on. I am trying to get my head mentally prepared for the season."
Beniquez Brown said he's going to try and digest the film and use what he learned on the field? Is that what you are trying to do, too?
"Exactly, that is exactly what we are trying to do as linebackers. We are trying to understand the game (at) a new level this year as opposed to last year where we were trying to get used to it. This year, we are trying to understand it like veterans would."
What was it like last year when you were on the field and you knew you saw (the play) on film but it just didn't click?
"Yeah, you saw the play on film but there were only two or three plays where it kind of clicked. You were kind of nervous throughout the game. But toward the end of the season you started feeling a little better about it."
You lost Deontae Skinner from last year but added (redshirt freshman) Dezmond Harris. Do you see the depth and versatility being a little better this year?
"Yeah, we have some good linebackers. Dezz is going to be a good player. We have some good young guys. We have a really good rotation going on a linebacker."
What have you seen from (true freshmen) Gerri Green and Deshon Cooper, both are long and big, kind of like Benardrick (McKinney)?
"They are long, big guys who are getting their feet in the ground. They are working on using (their) size. It takes a lot to develop that size. But I think they are doing good. They are going to be good ball players."
You look like you are comfortable being a leader. Are you comfortable being a leader despite still being relatively young?
"Oh yeah, definitely. It is definitely encouraged for the middle linebackers to be leaders. Me and Benardrick kind of split leadership roles on the team. Really, all of the linebackers do. We all have our part. Me and Benardrick kind of lead more the D-line. The outside linebackers help the cornerbacks and the safeties. Everybody helps each other really."
I look at you and you are kind of like Benardrick. You both seem so serious. Is that part of your style? There is not a lot of smiling. It's like you take everything like it's business. I get the impression that both of you are very serious guys out there.
"Yeah, we are pretty serious but we can goof around. Benardrick is pretty goofy sometimes. We are serious when it comes time to be serious but we will goof around, too."
Do you feel good about moving around? I know Coach (Geoff) Collins like's you guys to be able to play all three linebacker spots. Do you feel comfortable at all three now?
"I have been playing a little Will here and there. Mike and Will, I play two positions. Will is pretty similar to Mike. There are just some small differences, like Hot 3, Hot 2. It is kind of a different technique. But they are pretty similar. I just need to make sure that I know both positions."
Why do you believe that this defense is being hyped so much?
"I think we had a really young defense the last two years. Now, we are starting to mature and grow. We are working on the small things to make our defense closer, smarter, better and faster. And I think it is going to be a great year."
Benardrick seems to be the leader of this defense. Can you talk about how important he is to the defense?
"B-Mac is a great guy, a great player. He has a lot of energy. He can be goofy, serious. He is a likeable guy. He's a natural leader. He's got a lot of potential."
Do you see any difference in him from last year to this year with Deontae Skinner gone? He told us he's kind of taken it upon himself to be the leader, to be that guy. Have you seen that?
"Yeah, I can see that. He has been a real good leader. And he's going to be that this year."
What have you seen that is different about him?
"He is kind of stepping up. He knows this is his year. He knows he has to be the leader this year. It is kind of the expectation that he has."

Advantages and Disadvantages of BiofuelsBY: Nidhi Uppangala | Category: Environmental-Biotechnology | Submitted: 2010-06-22 20:29:16
Article Summary: "Biofluels are combustible fuel materials produced or derived from biomass. Most commonly these biofluels are in the form of alcohols, esters, ethers and also other forms of hydrocarbon compounds. Biodiesel and bioethanol are two widely used forms of biofuels..."
Biofuels are combustible fuel materials produced or derived from biomass. Most commonly these biofuels are in the form of alcohols, esters, ethers and also other forms of hydrocarbon compounds. Biodiesel and bioethanol are two widely used forms of biofuels. Biofuels are in great demand and interest of public and also scientific community, because of some of the factors like oil price hikes, increased energy need and also concern over the greenhouse gases emitted from the fossil fuels.
Biodeseil is produced from biomass such as vegetable oil and rapeseed oil and also can be produced from used cooking oil and animal fat (tallow).
Bioethanol is produced from carbohydrate crops such as maize, sugar beet, wheat, potatoes and also other varieties of starch and sugar crops. Bioethanol produced from cellulose present in the common vegetation are also called as cellulosic ethanol. For example researches are going on to extract bioethanol from a variety of grass such as switchgrass, these grass grow to a height of 12 feet, and also Ford's Model T car was originally designed to run o biofuel, such as ethanol.
Advantages of Biodiesel:
1. Biodiesel is extracted or produced from renewable resources.
2. Biodiesel performs just like normal diesel (fossil fuel)
3. It causes less air pollution when compared to the normal diesel fuel
4. Engine designed to work on biodiesel produce less pollution when compared with normal diesel-engines
5. It is less inflammable when compared with normal diesel
6. Biodiesel can be mixed with fossil fuel diesel, this way also it works fine
7. It is biodegradable fuel; hence reduce the possibility of soil contamination and also underground water contamination during transportation, storage or during use.
8. As biofuel do not contain sulphur, the chemical element responsible for acid rain, hence biofuel are environment friendly.
9. To use biodiesel as fuel there is no need of engine conversion in comparison to other biofuels.
10. Durability of engine increases considerably when using biodiesel as combustible fuel
11. Biodiesel produces nearly 78% less carbon dioxide than the normal fossil fuel like diesel
12. As biodiesel has higher cetane and lubricity rating hence it improves efficiency of engine and also operating life cycle.
Disadvantages of Biodiesel:
1. Biodiesel is more expensive than the normal diesel
2. Biodiesel usage is less suitable in low temperatures
3. Biodiesel as fossil fuels cannot be transported using pipelines.
4. Only a little number of petrol station offer biodiesel-fuel
5. It gives out more amount of nitrogen oxide
6. Biodiesel attracts moisture hence this will create problems in cold weather and also it increases the risk of microbial growth in the engine and this will clog engine filters.
Advantages of Bioethanol:
1. Bioethanol can be blended with other fossil fuel for use, this reduces the emission of green house gases
2. Production of bioethanol starts from photosynthesis hence it is a renewable form of energy.
3. Bioethanol usage reduces greenhouse gases in the environment; hence it is environment friendly compound.
4. Bioethanol is biodegradable, therefore oil spill of this fuel will not cause any form of pollution, because bioethanol spills can be converted into non toxic compound
Disadvantages of Bioethanol:
1. Production of bioethanol requires high amount of energy and also large amount of land to produce biomass
2. Bioethanol fuel with more than 10% ethanol are not compatible with already established engine components and may cause engine corrosion

Deposits on the floor of Palos CraterThis image shows a portion of the floor in Palos Crater on equatorial Mars.
The High Resolution Imaging Science Experiment (HiRISE) camera on NASA's Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter recorded this image on March 8, 2010. The target for this HiRISE observation was a suggestion submitted through the camera team's HiWish public-suggestion program. For more information about how to submit target suggestions, see http://uahirise.org/hiwish/.
The floor appears bumpy with high-standing layered knobs. Most of the terrain on the floor is weathering into meter-size (yard-size) polygonal blocks. The circular structures in the image, many of which are filled with darker wind-blown material, are eroded impact craters.
Palos Crater is breached in the south by the 180-kilometer-long (112-mile-long) Tinto Vallis. Water transported along Tinto Vallis could have could have collected into Palos Crater to form a lake that later drained to the north. Sediments carried by Tinto Vallis would have also been deposited within Palos Crater, so the layered unit we see along the floor today could represent these fluvial sediments.
This image covers a swath of ground about 1 kilometer (about two-thirds of a mile) wide. It is a portion of HiRISE observation ESP_016943_1775, which is centered at 2.67 degrees south latitude, 111.13 degrees east longitude. The season on Mars is southern-hemisphere autumn. Other image products from this observation are available at http://hirise.lpl.arizona.edu/ESP_016943_1775.
Color images from HiRISE combine information from detectors with three different color filters: red, infrared, and blue-green. Thus they include information from part of the spectrum human eyes cannot see and are not true color as the eye would see. The resulting false color helps to show differences among surface materials.
The University of Arizona, Tucson, operates the HiRISE camera, which was built by Ball Aerospace & Technologies Corp., Boulder, Colo. NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory, a division of the California Institute of Technology, Pasadena, manages the Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter for the NASA Science Mission Directorate, Washington. Lockheed Martin Space Systems, Denver, built the spacecraft.

As you navigate the financial world, you'll most likely deal with a wide array of investment choices, constantly changing tax laws, estate-planning issues and other areas.

Sometimes you don't need to travel to the other end of the world. The most perfect wedding venue could be very near. It could be right there where you spent your summer weekends as a child and picked the sweetest strawberries ever.
It could be your grandparents garden.
Ever since the day we met Johanna and Bastian we were very curious about their wedding day. They told us about their families and the property near Berlin in the village called Rüdnitz. We instantly felt very connected to them and their idea of celebrating a wedding, because it reminded us of our own wedding day.
There's something very special about a wedding like this. Certainly turning a backyard into a wedding venue all by the help of family and friends takes a lot of strength, coordination and things can be a little chaotic sometimes. But at the same time there's a wonderful atmosphere of calm which evolves from the feeling to be at home.
Bridal bouquet: Frau Rose
Johannas hair: Vokuhila Berlin

To answer this if you are serious, not knowing anything about how computers run isn't a case of "either", per se. The concept is inclusive and central to the original premise.
Stop the TSA now! Boycott the airlines.

I was just agreeing that he doesn't know the difference between the two and i was serious about what i said.

Fox, starting to move away, recognized the cattleman from whom he had escaped half an hour before.
Against the back of the cattleman he pushed the end of the revolver barrel.
Of course the real boundary-rider or cattleman is without equal in his own way.
He was a cattleman and they hated the sheepmen, you know, and used to fight them.
From his reflections the cattleman came to an alert attention.
I don't care about the cattleman, but Gallagher and Alderson were my shipmates.
"That's right," nodded the cattleman ironically, from the porch.
Her dilated eyes were fixed on something behind the cattleman.
"Nesters," nodded the cattleman, drawing his great brows in a frown.
The cattleman raised himself on an elbow, but fell back with a grunt.

If you were planning to attend Comic Con is San Diego later this month, you might want to serious reconsider. Apparently, the evil feline will be there in full force with her (and I'm not making this up — this is a quote from their press release) "band of Lolitas, who personify anime, cosplay and the colorful style of Japanese pop culture, will host fans at the experience" to make sure that everyone wishes that they never attended. Let's just pray that fanatics don't dress up like they did at Dragoncon (NSFW or your life)
Chicken Reversible Plush
If there was ever any doubt that the people at Sanrio aren't even trying anymore (and there really is no doubt at all), the latest Hello Kitty creation should even convince the most skeptical. It has become readily apparent that they know that no matter what they make, fanatics of the evil feline will buy it. Case in point, the Hello Kitty chicken reversible plush:
Hello Kitty Lego Halloween
Apparently there are some people that aren't simply satisfied with ruining Halloween with an abundance of the evil feline, but also feel it necessary to throw in another beloved iconic toy to ruin as well. When this happens, the result is stuff like the Hello Kitty Lego Halloween figures:
Hello Kitty Dart Board
One of the things that I fear most about posting Hello Kitty crap is that it will lead to more Hello Kitty crap in my email. A perfect example is when I posted the Hello Kitty shooting target on Facebook. Christine then offhandedly asked the question, "For those who don't have access to guns, how about a Hello Kitty dartboard?" Guess what ended up in my mailbox a few days later? Was there any doubt that it was a Hello Kitty dartboard?
Hello Kitty Build A Bear Halloween
While all seasons suck when you live in Hello Kitty Hell, the end of the year is the worst. I know immediately when October arrives because people start sending me stuff like Hello Kitty Halloween costumes and Hello Kitty pumpkins. And that is just the tip of the iceberg of the Hello Kitty Halloween crap that exists out there. To perfectly illustrate this point, I present the exclusive Hello Kitty Build-A-Bear Halloween orange witch:
Hello Kitty Dissection
Most people put Hello Kitty and Halloween together to create some of the most awful combinations possible, but every once in awhile someone comes up with a quality idea on how to treat the evil feline at the end of October. Jason Freeny (of Hello Kitty anatomy fame) decided that Halloween 2010 should be dedicated to the dissection of the official Balzac Hello Kitty Skeleton Costume vinyl figure:
Hello Kitty Silly Bandz
I have no idea what the purpose of silly bandz are, so I guess it makes perfect sense that the evil feline would want to align herself with them:
Hello Kitty Darth Vader Helmet
This is why you never want to have a daughter with a Hello Kitty fanatic. When it comes time to give a gift to your daughter, somehow it will get rationalized that a full size custom Hello Kitty Darth Vader model head would be a good idea:

Hello Kitty Xbox Controller
If there is one rule of thumb when living with a Hello Kitty fanatic, it is never to leave anything that you value where the Hello Kitty fanatic has access to it. Why you ask? Because if you do, you'll end up with an Xbox controller that looks like this…
left by eignasan via Twitter who says "My boyfriend will love his improved HK controller when he sees it."
Update: Apparently Gamecube game controllers are also not immune against being Hello Kittified:
Sent in by Fluff who asks, "Why do girls feel the need to collect all that rubbish? Check out what my gf did to my gamecube controller!"
Hello Kitty Rockband Guitar
It's important to let all those out there who make a special effort to get their Hello Kitty fanatic significant other something that she would like to immediately stop it. It not only puts you deeper into Hello Kitty Hell, it makes it worse for all of us who are desperately trying to escape from it. Case in point, the Hello Kitty Rockband Guitar:
Hello Kitty Bratz Lady Gaga Dress
Apparently Bratz doesn't feel that Barbie should be the only one to get to wear the dress. It really doesn't make a difference what doll is wearing it. It's going to give the average non Hello Kitty fanatic nightmares…
Sent in by tiff (via veik11 – used with permission)
Hello Kitty Lady Gaga Barbie
What is worse than Lady Gaga dressed in a Hello Kitty plush dress? The thought of a line of Lady Gaga Barbies wearing that Hello Kitty plush dress:
Hello Kitty Blythe Doll
I never understood the appeal of Blythe dolls. If you have spent even a little time on this blog, you already know I have absolutely no comprehension of what goes on inside the mind of Hello Kitty fanatics. So the combination of the two into a Hello Kitty Blythe doll pretty much defies all reason in my opinion which will mean it will be a huge hit with both Hello Kitty and Blythe fanatics. One more reason to lose hope in the human race ever surviving…
Left on Twitter by whereisjeannie (via blythedoll)
Hello Kitty Radio Controlled Truck
I'm not sure what is more disturbing — the fact that they actually make a Hello Kitty radio-controlled truck or the amount of fun that the person seems to be having using it. I kept hoping against hope that someone would walk by and step on the damn thing or that it would fall down a flight of stairs and give a satisfying end to the video — no such luck…
Sent in by radioman
Hello Kitty Razor
Yet another company sells its soul to the evil feline and Hello Kitty continues her quest to Hello Kittify every form of transportation possible with a marketing deal that will have Razor produce Hello Kitty razors in the near future:
Hello Kitty Sushi Plush
The fact that Hello Kitty sushi exists is a pretty good damnation of the human race. That the evil feline also encourages fanatics to wear Hello Kitty chopsticks in their hair when she monetises this trend just further proves that all is not right in the world these days.
Sent in by Jessica
Update Mike Mozart reviews Hello Kitty plush for his failtoys Youtube channel:
Hello Kitty Dr. Romanelli Internal Organs Figure
One of the many (many, many…) problems with Hello Kitty fanatics is their desire to make everything cute. This includes things that were never meant to be cute such as one's internal organs. So it's really no surprise that what is really inside you and what the evil feline wants all to believe is inside you are not quite the same:
Hello Kitty Wii
Was there ever really any doubt? Wii had already started to produce official Hello Kitty Wii related items and fans were doing things that just weren't right with Hello Kitty Wii mods. So I guess it's not going to be too much longer until I walk home and my Wii controllers and Wii console looks like this…
Sent in by patty
Update: Because if you are going to ruin the Wii, you might as well have multiple ways of ruining the controllers:
Sent in by Amber
You knew that eventually someone would decide to make a Hello Kitty mod (and you also knew that it would be just as terrible as you imagined it would be).
Sent in by Kos (via My Mod)
Hello Kitty Guitar Hero Wii Guitar Mod
One would think that the evil feline would be satisfied after convincing guitar makers to sell their souls and produce both Hello Kitty acoustic guitars and Hello Kitty electric guitars (not to mention what happens when people actually play them or even worse, pretend to play them). This, of course, would be greatly underestimating the lengths that she would go to to try and inflict pain on every person possible and neglect the fact that more and more people are playing Guitar Hero these days. If you are a Wii fan and a Guitar Hero fan (actually, this is good advice to anyone that is breathing), just leave now because you don't want this haunting you for the rest of the year.

Cui Guoliang and Li RongChina
I. About Peng-chun Chang
Peng-chun Chang (1892-1957), born in Tianjin, had at least six years of old-style private education and had learned Confucian classical works thoroughly in his heart before he entered a private middle school (the predecessor of Nankai Middle School) in 1904. In 1910, Peng-chun Chang went to the United States to study and was awarded the doctor's degree in 1922, becoming China's first doctorate holder of education. After that, he came back to China and established and participated in establishing two world famous universities: Nankai University and Tsinghua University.
Influenced by his family, Peng-chun Chang loved dramas very much. While studying in the United States, he also learned western dramas in 1913-1915, starting the mode of Chinese people directly learning the concepts and composing methods of western drama. Meanwhile, he spread Chinese traditional culture to the west. In 1919, he went to the United States again for doctor degree. During the period, he cooperated with U.S. poet and reviewer J.E.Spingarn in translating with the Shibian (poet debate) and Shifa (poetry) sections and related historical literary quotations of Canglang Poetry Talks, the great work in Chinese history of poem, which were published in The Dial; in 1921, he and Hong Shen wrote and directed the drama Mu Lan on the basis of Chinese long poem of the sixth century. The drama was so successful when it was put on stage in the Cort Theater in Broadway that the theater was crowded with audiences in every single performance . He introduced Chinese classical poems and its theory to the West.
Peng-chun Chang initiated the introduction of Chinese traditional dramas to the West and played outstanding roles in helping the U.S. audiences understand Chinese culture. When Chinese great Peking Opera performer Mei Lanfang led his troupe to make his debut with the Qingwen Tearing the Fan (a section of A Dream of Red Mansion) in the United States, the audiences did not understand the story, leading to a great failure to the performance. Under the circumstance, Mr. Mei asked Peng-chun Chang, who not only mastered Chinese and Western dramas, but also knew clearly U.S. audiences' appreciation psychology, to select a new list of operas. Knowing foreigners would like to watch easy operas of martial art with traditional Chinese costumes, Peng-chun Chang proposed to stage Slaying the Tiger. According to him, the play was easy to understand even without language so long as the movements were well arranged. He suggested cutting unnecessary plots of the opera to reduce the time length, and adding new plays gradually into later performances. Peng-chun Chang personally directed rehearsals and the graceful and lifelike Chinese traditional operas received warm welcome in the United States. Two universities in the United States awarded Mr. Mei doctor's degree of Literature. At the awarding ceremony, Mr. Mei read out the thank-you message written by Peng-chun Chang:

"He died of injuries related to his stab wounds. That doesn't change. It's the manner in which he got the stab wounds that remains to be determined," Mr. Foucrault said, and explained that the status may change as the police develop more information. The coroner described the wounds as "three to four superficial wounds," none in the back, that led to multiple organ system failure.
According to the police report, two men attacked Mr. Cronin as he stepped outside his insurance brokerage at 1100 Alma St. in Menlo Park around 9:45 p.m. on March 26. He was able to contact his wife after the attack, who took him to a local hospital, where he was released in stable condition following treatment, but he died on May 30.
The assailants were both described as Hispanic and about 5-foot-8-inches tall, with short hair and thin builds, and investigators released a sketch of one suspect. Police said Mr. Cronin wasn't able to confirm whether anything was stolen.
Questions surrounding the incident have left those working in the same building uneasy. One worker said that as the attack reportedly took place as Mr. Cronin carried out the garbage that night, he has concerns about his own safety.
"The building is right next to Caltrain; there's a lot of transient activity there and it may not be quite as safe as other parts of Menlo Park, I think," he said. "It's a public matter. I understand the family needs privacy, but it's a public safety issue."
The night of the incident, those working nearby reportedly were unaware that anything unusual had taken place, he said.
The investigation remains ongoing, according to police.

Banksville Plaza loses power after malfunction, fire
Stores in the Banksville Plaza in Pittsburgh's Banksville section were forced to close on Monday evening after the shopping center lost electricity.
The plaza in the 3100 block of Banksville Road lost power after a piece of equipment malfunctioned and caused the utility pole on which it was attached to catch fire, said Joe Vallarian, a spokesman for Duquesne Light Co..
No injuries were reported.
Utility crews were dispatched to replace the burned pole and damaged transformer, Vallarian said.
Service is expected to be restored by 4 a.m. on Tuesday, he said.

2011.93: Shape Deformation in Two-Dimensional Electrical Impedance Tomography

Electrical Impedance Tomography (EIT) uses mea- surements from surface electrodes to reconstruct an image of the conductivity of the contained medium. However, changes in measurements result from both changes in internal conductivity and changes in the shape of the medium relative to the electrode positions. Failure to account for shape changes results in a conductivity image with significant artifacts. Previous work to address shape changes in EIT has shown that in some cases boundary shape and electrode location can be uniquely deter- mined for isotropic conductivities; however, for geometrically conformal changes, this is not possible. This prior work has shown that the shape change problem can be partially addressed. In this paper, we explore the limits of compensation for boundary movement in EIT, using three approaches: first, a theoretical model was developed to separate a deformation vector field into conformal and non-conformal components, from which the reconstruction limits may be determined; next, finite element models were used to simulate EIT measurements from a domain whose boundary has been deformed; finally, an experimental phantom was constructed from which boundary deformation measurements were acquired. Results, both in simulation and with experimental data, suggest that some electrode movement and boundary distortions can be reconstructed based on conduc- tivity changes alone while reducing image artifacts in the process.

Trains have resumed on a section of track in Melbourne's west where two trains collided on Friday night, injuring several people.
The crash happened about 7pm when a city-bound Metro train stopped unexpectedly at a level crossing on Maidstone Street, Altona.
A V/Line train coming from Geelong then rear-ended the Metro train at low-speed.
About 60 people were assessed by Ambulance Victoria paramedics, with four people being taken to hospital and seven treated at the scene.
There were no passengers on the Geelong train, but the driver and conductor received minor injuries.
A Public Transport Victoria spokeswoman said the trains were removed from the tracks about 2pm on Saturday and the tracks were cleared completely about 5pm.
V/Line and Metro officials then inspected the section of track and signals before declaring it safe, the spokeswoman said.
The first V/Line train from Geelong to Melbourne departed at 12.21pm on Sunday, with a Geelong-bound service departing at 1pm.
Metro services on the Werribee line, which had been diverting through the Altona loop, have also resumed their normal route.
The Office of the National Rail Safety Regulator and the Transport Safety chief investigator's office both investigated the crash scene.
Police are believed to be investigating reports that vandals had attempted to stop the train in order to launch a graffiti attack.

Investigating property crimes: A checklist for success
From hints for the first officer on scene to overlooked investigative avenues for identifying suspects, here are some valuable keys to solving property crimes
According to the Federal Bureau of Investigation Uniform Crime Report (UCR), there were approximately 9,767, 915 property crimes committed across the United States in 2008. Statistics show property crimes have been on a steady decline for at least the past six years. Preliminary UCR reporting for 2008-2009 indicate property crimes declined by approximately 4.9 percent nationwide. But if you ask the average beat cop what they're doing with all of their "free time"...they might just break out the pepper spray!
As police officers, we have a duty to provide quality services to the citizens of the communities in which we work. Taking report after report for burglaries, auto thefts, destruction of property, and malicious burnings can wear down even the most energetic officer. The frequent and repetitive nature of property crime reports raises concerns of officer complacency and cynicism. There simply is no room for these attitudes in a successful criminal investigation. Victims feel violated and a crime of this nature is often a personal crisis. Each victim deserves to have the best possible investigation conducted in each and every circumstance.
The following steps are meant to aid officers in their property crime investigations and each officer is encouraged to do more to achieve case resolution and property recovery.
First responding officers are critical to any property crime investigation because they are able to document and capture the crime scene in its purest state.
Officers Should...
• Document the crime scene as he or she found it
• Identify witnesses and obtain statements
• Broadcast a detailed suspect description and update if more information becomes available
• Note points of entry, exit, and flight
• Note force used to enter a property or vehicle
• Note the location of broken glass
• Check glass for blood (DNA) or fingerprints
• Check points of entry for tool marks and look for tools used
• Look for gas cans or other accelerants in the case of arson
• Check the location for other possible points of contact by the suspect — suspects have been known to eat, drink, and use the bathroom
• Determine what was stolen or damaged
• Ask themselves "Who would benefit from committing this crime?" — was this simply a crime of opportunity or was the victim targeted?
• Be diligent at the crime scene and consider all possible evidentiary avenues
• Recognize they usually only get one shot at processing a scene before it is tainted
• Ensure all collected items of evidence (fingerprints, blood, clothing, tools, tool marks, shoe impressions, gas cans and accelerants, food, food packaging, etc...) are submitted for analysis
Obtain a Very Detailed List of Stolen or Destroyed Property
• A detailed description of the stolen/destroyed property or vehicle is key to bolstering the possibility of property or damage recovery
• Prioritize serialized property or property with unique markings or descriptors
• Place all stolen serialized property into NCIC
• Be particularly detailed when describing non-serialized property — include defects and unique identifiers if any are known
• Try and obtain photos of stolen property or vehicles
• Share all the information at roll call for at least three days (this way, officers who have been off for a couple of days can learn of the crime, and it will remain fresh in the mind of working officers so they remain on the lookout or you find another officer may have responded to a similar call for service)
Consider Other Investigative Avenues to Identify the Suspect
• MO — was this crime similar to any others within geographical proximity
• Check other reports and field interviews for suspicious subjects/vehicles, disturbances, neighbor complaints, etc…
• Check local pawn shops and computerized pawn shop databases if accessible for stolen property or possible suspect info
• Conduct a neighborhood canvass for possible witnesses or unreported incidents
• Check with known reliable informants
• Check impound lots and vehicle "chop shops"
• Check the location for surveillance video equipment
• Share all gathered information with specialized investigative units for follow-up
Debrief All Arrestees Charged in Unrelated Offenses About Known Criminal Information
• A valuable investigative tool for gathering intelligence on property crimes or any other type of crime for that matter
• After processing your arrestees and post-Miranda questioning about the crime leading to their arrest, ask them about their knowledge of other crimes in the area—remember to be specific and ask open ended questions and not those that invite "yes" or "no" responses
• For example, instead of asking: "Do you know anyone committing crimes in the area?" you can ask: "Who do you know that is breaking into homes or businesses?"
• You may have several arrestees who tell you nothing but eventually, with persistence, you will find the one who provides a wealth of information and clears several cases for you
Consider the Application of Technology to Your Investigations
• Electronic items are becoming more sophisticated and technology is worthy of consideration in your investigations
• Many new cell phones, laptops, iPads and vehicles have the ability to be tracked via GPS
• Some manufacturers offer tracking software for their products in the event of theft or misplacement
• Technology may not only lead to the recovery of property it may also lead you right to the suspect(s)
• PoliceOne and MacNewsWorld have recently published articles highlighting the use of technology to recovery stolen property and identify suspects
Property crimes — by their sheer volume — are difficult crimes to solve and property recovery is often harder but each victim deserves our best investigative efforts. Proper crime scene documentation, evidence collection, detailed report writing, information sharing and the use of technology in furtherance of an investigation are steps each of us can take in an effort to determine who's responsible for committing property crime(s) and aid in property recovery. By following these basic investigative steps and adding any of your own, victims should feel satisfied a thorough investigation has been conducted and perhaps begin to feel a restoration of their greatest loss, their sense of comfort and security.

Arts Stena Blue sizzles on rainy night at Rosecroft
On a night which featured on and off showers veteran pacer Arts Stena Blue found the "Fountain of Youth" and obliterated a field of pacers in the seventh race. The time of 1:54.3 is tied for the third fastest of the meet. The eleven year old stallion is owned, trained and was reined by driver Billy Carter. This was the second seasonal start for this one and was less than a second off of his lifetime mark.
Ten different drivers won a race on the card featured more winning favorites than usual but the longshot player had their winner too when Kim Vincent circled the field from way back with Caviart Lindy paying $60.80 to win the evening's third race.
Racing returns to Rosecroft on Tuesday night with a special eleven race card on tap for bettors. First post is 7:25 p.m.

Wests Tigers centre Tim Simona is facing a three-week suspension for a dangerous tackle on Gold Coast five-eighth Aidan Sezer.
Simona took down the Titans playmaker during the second half of Gold Coast's 22-6 NRL win at Leichhardt Oval on Sunday.
He was charged with a grade-two dangerous throw on Monday and will sit out two matches if he pleads guilty and three if he fights the charge unsuccessfully.
Titans interchange player Paul Carter is set to miss his side's next game against South Sydney after he was hit with a grade-one high tackle charge.
Given carry-over points, Carter will miss the Rabbitohs clash even if he pleads guilty to the charge that resulted from a tackle on David Nofoaluma.
Canberra prop Brett White (tripping) and Wests Tigers backrower Bodene Thompson (dangerous contact) can escape bans with early pleas.

Pirates star goes to bat for McKeesport family in need
Shawnda Yvette Little-Dreher and her family will be moving into a beautiful McKeesport home with the help of Habitat for Humanity of Greater Pittsburgh and a star baseball player.
Little-Dreher, her husband Timothy Joel Dreher, and their daughter Tamia Little-Dreher rent a small home in central McKeesport. Their landlord is searching for a buyer for the property, putting the family in danger of not having a place to live.
Shawnda Little-Dreher said the family submitted an application to Habitat for Humanity. It was approved by the board of directors, who secured a home for the family along Jefferson Street near McKeesport Area High School.
"We've been so excited," she said on Tuesday. "I'm so ready to get us out of there and to finally have something to call our own, and don't have to pick up and move again."
About 20 volunteers helped renovate the property on Tuesday. Pirates center fielder Andrew McCutchen was among them.
"Any way that I can help, I'm willing to help," McCutchen said. "Working with Habitat for Humanity's definitely something that I want to be a part of because I grew up in a town where my family worked hard, but sometimes they needed help financially. I can relate to families that work very hard."
Tamia, a sophomore, plays softball at McKeesport Area High School. Dreher works for Auberle, and Little-Dreher studies business at Community College of Allegheny County South Campus in hope of pursuing a catering career.
McCutchen met the family at PirateFest. He spoke with the parents outside their new home on Tuesday. They talked about the ball club, how the season is going, and how much working on the project meant to them.
"It's exciting," Shawnda Little-Dreher said. "I love McCutchen as a baseball player; him and (Pedro) Alvarez and (Neil) Walker. The only team I watch is the Pirates. I love baseball, but I only watch the Pirates."
"I'm passionate enough to come out and help and do anything I can to help," McCutchen said. "I'm not doing this because I feel like I have to. I'm doing it because I really want to. It's amazing just to be able to see them, to be able to talk to them for a little bit. They're a great, hardworking family and just grateful for us to be able to come out and help. It's good just to be able to see their smiling faces."
Shawnda Little-Dreher said her family is moving to a new part of the city in either June or July.
"I love this community," she said. "Where we're at now is terrible. Since we've been up there, there have been so many shootings. Someone got shot in front of our house. It's just crazy."
They qualified for the Habitat for Humanity program because they make 53 percent of the median income for a family of three,
Habitat executive director Maggie Withrow said.The home was donated by Chase Bank through one of its programs. Habitat provided it to the family at an estimated $80,000 sale price through an interest-free mortgage.
"We're hopeful that more local banks would participate in the same type of programs," Withrow said. "It's a way for them to get foreclosed houses off of their books and into the hands of people who can do something recyclable."
Volunteers framed the basement family room, hung drywall in the kitchen, removed old carpet and did general cleanup work on Tuesday.
"With the work that it needed to have done to it, it could have sat here for years before anybody would be willing to invest in it and do the rehab," Withrow said.
"We couldn't do what we do without our volunteers," Habitat construction supervisor Lee Baumann said.
The family is volunteering for Habitat as part of their minimum 350 hours of "sweat equity" in lieu of a down payment,
Withrow said.
Habitat plans to build or renovate homes for 170 families over the next three years. It receives no direct funding from Habitat International, so all funding for Greater Pittsburgh projects must be raised through local sources, Withrow said.
More information is available online at www.pittsburghhabitat.org/projects.
