|2Pac featuring Shock G singles chronology
"Trapped" is a song by 2Pac that deals with police brutality. It was a single from his debut album, 2Pacalypse Now. The first verse tells a story of 2Pac being harassed by the police, one even shooting at him. He then fires back and says he did it because he was tired of constantly being profiled and abused by police officers. 2Pac then depicts the police chasing after him and eventually cornering him. He then ends the song with the line "I'd rather die then be trapped in the living hell", implying if forced into a corner he would rather die than live life in a cell.
The song samples "Holy Ghost" by Bar-Kays and "The Spank" by James Brown. "Trapped" was featured on 2Pac's Greatest Hits in 1998.
Music video[edit]
The music video features Shock G singing part of the song's chorus and depicts 2Pac in jail. It appeared as a bonus on the DVD for Tupac: Resurrection.Around the time the music video was debuting, Tupac was assaulted by the Oakland Police Department after he cursed at them for demeaning his name and prolonging the issuing of a ticket sustained during a jaywalking incident.

One of the most closely guarded secrets of China's leadership transition – its date – may have been revealed by a bunch of disappointed runners. The Beijing marathon, scheduled for October 14, has been delayed until early November. A public safety and security exhibition was also postponed, apparently because of preparations for China's 18th Party Congress. At the meeting in Beijing's Great Hall of the People, the Communist Party officially announces its next president and premier, almost certain to be Xi Jinping and Li Keqiang. It will also unveil the new Politburo Standing Committee and there is a growing expectation China's effective cabinet will be reduced to seven from nine members. The delayed events are the clearest sign yet the meeting will be held in mid-October, but a surprise September gathering cannot be ruled out. Ramped-up security around the venue, and Xi Jinping's cancellation of a number of high-level meetings earlier this week, including with US Secretary of State

No employees were hurt after ground movement over recent weeks prompted Rio to take pre-emptive measures ahead of the pit wall collapse. But a Rio engineer told a Salt Lake City television station the slide was bigger than expected and covered two-thirds of the bottom of the pit as well as some haul trucks and other equipment.
Bingham Canyon has been mined for the past 150 years and ranks as the world's largest human excavation. The pit is now 4.4 kilometres wide, has a length of 38 football fields, and is 1.2 kilometres deep. A strategy paper issued last month said the pit walls were steepening, presenting an increasing mining challenge, and production would eventually have to go underground.
Rio has not provided any guidance on how long it will take to get the mine, capable of producing 300,000 tonnes of copper and 400,000 ounces of gold a year, back into operation. It will process stockpiles until those run out.
Mr Young said the mine was expected to contribute $US513 million in net profit after this year or 5 per cent of Rio's earnings. "If the mine was down for a year, we estimate a potential $US700 million impact," he said.
"There will be broader ramifications across the sector I suspect, given a potential tightening in the market more broadly."

Gayle force Chris proves to strong for DareDevils
Deepankar Kaur | cricket20
A stunning blitz from Chris Gayle was more then enough to help the Royal Challengers Bangalore seal an empathic 21 run victory over the Delhi DareDevils at the Feroz Shah Kotla in Delhi.
The big hitting West Indian smashed an unbelievable 128 runs from just 62 deliveries which included seven boundaries and a mammoth thirteen sixes to leave the DareDevils facing a victory target of 216.
Virat Kohli (73) played the perfect supporting role as the pair shared a 2nd wicket stand of 204 after the early loss of Tillakaratne Dilshan (10) who was dismissed by Varun Aaron in the third over.
The result sees the Royals Challengers move level on points with the Chennai Super Kings in 4th place; a victory for Kohlis side against the Deccan Chargers on Sunday will seal their place in the place offs at the expense of the defending champions.
Faced with an almost impossible run chase, the DareDevils tried their hardest to make a game of it thanks to a quick fire 22 ball half century from Ross Taylor (55) who smashed seven boundaries and two sixes on his way to 50.
Venugopal Rao (36) offered support but with no Virender Sehwag in the line up the DareDevils missed that cutting edge as the slipped to defeat.

text: A Lyons man barricaded himself in his home after shooting a police officer in the bulletproof vest Thursday night, police reported. The standoff, which Lyons police said resulted from a marital argument, began at about 7 p.m. when a neighbor heard a gunshot and saw the man in front of a house at 4503 Warsaw Ave. with his estranged wife and teenage son. When police arrived, the man, tentatively identified as Alex Denischenko, opened fire with a .22 rifle and hit the officer, police said. Lyons officer Ricky Hrusareck was treated at MacNeal Memorial Hospital in Berwyn and released. A hospital spokesman said that Hrusareck was wearing a bulletproof vest. A neighbor, Don Chimel of 4521 Warsaw Ave., said Denischenko had been separated from his wife for two years. Chimel said in the last week he had noticed Denischenko back in the neighborhood and had seen his black sports car parked in the driveway.

I'm a african american who is 20 years old who still get really bad acne which follow into post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation. it is all over my fore head, chin, and cneeks its even growing on my back. i don't use much chemical products only dove soap to wash my face. im not drak skin nor to light. the ance and post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation have gotten worst
How to Get Rid of Acne and Post-inflammatory Hyperpigmentation
Doctor Answers 4
Post inflammatory hyperpigmenttion associated with acne
Brown skin, Asian skin and East Indian skin is prone to hyperpigmentation.
Before you spend $$ on peels or IPL, try these topicals.
This condition is called post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH).
I recommend Melarase AM and Melarase PM creams from Kare Skin as well as a broad spectrum sunblock like Spectrase. Bothe are from Kare Skin.
Scler-x post inflammatory hyperigmentation relief complex is a great supplement to take as well. See link below.
Spectrase is a wide spectrum sunblock SPF 50+that is also recommended to prevent ongoing inflammation.

Acne and Post-Inflammatory Hyperpigmentation
It is important to visit a dermatologist for treatment of your acne, in order to prevent the further development of post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation. I often recommend that my patients who are prone to post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation use topical prescription medications, such as Tazorac and Finacea, which address both active acne and lighten post-inflammatory hyper pigmentation. These topical medications are most effective when used in combination with oral therapy, such as oral antibiotics, when considered appropriate by your dermatology. In-office treatments, such as LED light therapy, Isolaz acne therapy, and chemical peels, are also safe and effective for the treatment of acne and PIH (post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation) in skin of color.

My suggestions: 1. See a dermatologist to get on an anti-acne skin care program. 2. Use a braod spectrum sunscreen to prevent darkening of the post inflammatory hyperpigmentation. 3. Do not pick or squeeze. 4. Finally, to fade the spots Talk to your dermatologist about lunchtime or SilkPeels

Models of the ISO 3- Reflection Spectrum of Jupiter
R.F. Knacke (Penn State Erie), T.Y. Brooke (Penn State Erie and JPL), D. Crisp (JPL), Th. Encrenaz, P. Drossart (Obs. Paris, Meudon), H. H. Feuchtengruber (ISO Center, Villafranca), Th. de Graauw (SRON, Gronigen)
Spectra of Jupiter obtained recently with the Infrared Space Observatory
show evidence for the signature of NH ice particles in the jovian
atmosphere. Thermochemical theory predicts that Jupiter's upper
atmosphere should contain NH ice, but until now it has been
difficult to find spectroscopic evidence of solid NH . To interpret
the new spectra, we constructed models of Jupiter's 2.7-3.2
reflection spectrum, including multiple scattering by spherical cloud
particles. Model atmospheres containing two cloud decks and NH gas
absorption best reproduce a sharp drop in Jupiter's reflectance longward
of 2.7 . The model upper cloud deck is located near the NH
condensation level at 0.6 bar. The lower cloud, which must be optically
thick, is at 1.4 bar, the altitude of a cloud detected by the Galileo
nephelometer. Inclusion of NH ice particles in the upper cloud
gives much improved agreement with the jovian ISO spectrum near 3 ,
primarily because of absorption by the broad 2.95 N-H stretch
vibration band of solid NH . NH ice particles with radius
10 and cloud visible optical depths of 1 give the best fit.
This is strong evidence for the long-sought spectral signature of NH
ice particles in Jupiter's atmosphere, although the uniqueness of the
fit has not yet been conclusively demonstrated. This research was
supported by NASA grants NAGW-3415 and NAG 5-3368 to Penn State Erie.

Economics will prevent it, but the performance of British and Irish Lions winger George North against the Western Force on Wednesday gave a tantalising glimpse of what lustre a northern star could bring to southern hemisphere competitions.
But the traffic is all one way: Digby Ioane is the latest Australian to pack his bags for French shores, and All Black Hosea Gear will quickly follow suit. But permit the dream: North showed in Perth he is the sort of player you simply want to see with the ball. Imagine that combination of size, speed and occasional subtlety on consistently dry tracks.
For someone with such giant dimensions – 1.92metres and 106kilograms – power has not come to define his game. In fact, he probably doesn't have the sledgehammer effect of someone such as Julian Savea, who uses his frame with such violent intent even fullbacks such as Israel Dagg are left spinning on the ground with their legs at unusual angles. North uses his feet as a weapon as much as his bulk.
When he was on the end of the chain of the move that led to Brian O'Driscoll's first try, a bulldozer approach might have been understandable. Instead, he put on a little shuffle close to the touchline to give himself a bit of room outside Brett Sheehan, and then transferred the ball from the outside of his right hand back to O'Driscoll.
That's not something a coach has given him. No doubt it's the same quality Robbie Deans sees in Israel Folau.
And when you go to the statistics after the game it becomes clear that that is the sort of game Warren Gatland wants them to play. The Lions made 20 offloads.
And even more importantly, when the Lions ventured into the opposition's danger zone, they tended to make it count. They had 15 forays into the Force 22, and came away with points from 73per cent of them. It's not a like-for-like comparison of course, but when the Reds played the Rebels last weekend, they had 11 campaigns inside the visitors' 22, of which less than half produced points.
Gatland will be pleased with that rate of finishing power.
There were a couple of other moments, among many, that caught the eye. The first was of the blink-and-you'll-miss-it variety. It was the decision of O'Driscoll not to catch a wide ball as it came across him. That might sound odd but only the wise resist the temptation to take a pass that is not quite on, killing a move that was building nicely. The Irishman plays with such astuteness it elevates those around him: how Manu Tuilagi would have enjoyed supplying that clever little inside pass for his second try.
The second was Sean O'Brien smashing ahead into contact in the second half. It's this side of his game that offers Gatland such versatility off the bench. He can easily slot into all three back-row positions if required. It is a trait the Wallabies have lost with the absence of George Smith, who could have been moved to No.6 late on in games to accommodate Michael Hooper without the pack sacrificing power. Hooper and Liam Gill together would look greener, a little riskier. The composition of the bench is probably causing plenty of debate in both camps.
But that is to come. Already we have had a taste of North and the possibilities he offers. And they will be keeping the Wallabies on their toes.

Thanks to BrianTracerBullet for helping me with the name!
Thanks to Manos for the template and irocko for the tee photo.
Thanks for voting!
haha nice one dude
hahaha AWESOME!
hahaha cool!
this is cool and great!!$$$
Ace batnav!
i love this
The design itself is sweet (although I'd probably have made the villain loactor dots in the shape of the heads again, 'cause otherwise you can't tell them apart - but that's not a big deal), but it seems to be quite small when placed on the shirt, and even from this distance it's hard to make out any detail. Great, though.
nice idea, but needs to be a bit clearer that it's Batman's GPS - maybe make the GPS in the shape of the bat symbol.
hahahahaha cool idea :D
Great idea and execution, just wish it was a little bigger on the tee. Still a 4, but could be way better
Awesome! Love it! Always! Winner! Expression!
AHAH so cool!!
obviously this is batman's GPS. DUH. Funny, cool. nice job.
Nice work love it :)
Ha fun!
nah nah nah nah nah nah nah nah...
print this!
bat-tastic. love!
Nice details and a fun concept as always :)

2 Americans killed in fighting in Gaza Strip
Photo Credit: Getty
Max Steinberg and Nissim Sean Carmeli grew up in America. But they both developed a passion for Israel.
The young men's love of Israel ultimately led them to join the Israel Defense Forces, and they ended up fighting for the Jewish state in the Gaza Strip this week.
On Sunday, Steinberg, 24, and Carmeli, 21, were killed there. They were among 13 Israeli soldiers and 65 Palestinians killed Sunday during the first major ground battle in two weeks of fighting between Israel and Hamas.
Steinberg, whose family lives in Southern California's San Fernando Valley, was a sharpshooter for the Golani Brigade, his father, Stuart Steinberg, told The Associated Press on Sunday.
Earlier Sunday, the IDF said in a statement that Carmeli, 21, a sergeant, was killed in combat in the Gaza Strip. Carmeli was from South Padre Island, Texas, said Deputy Consul General of Israel to the Southwest Maya Kadosh. She said Carmeli moved to Israel four years ago and added that the consulate helped his family get a flight there Sunday.
Rabbi Asher Hecht of Chabad of the Rio Grande Valley, who is a longtime family friend, said Carmeli joined the Israeli army after finishing high school in Israel and was in the Golani Brigade. Carmeli was from Ra'anana, Israel, according to the IDF statement.
"He had great energy, yet had a kind and gentle soul," Hecht said. "It's been a very tough day for us," he added. "We lost a gem."

Don't worry about looking like a tourist in Liverpool: this is a city with architecture worth gawping at. Don sensible shoes and hit the streets. Come evening and it's time to scrub up: you need to be in full Rio Carnival garb to look overdressed here.
Explore high and low
Be prepared to veer off the straight and narrow, too. It might have one of the world's most celebrated waterfronts, but Liverpool demands that you climb to its eyries and sink below its surface.
Start your day at the centre of things. Linking the commercial core with the university and cultural quarters, Bold Street is a perfect spot to breakfast and get a feel for the city's morning vibe.
At number 89, Bold Street Coffee gave the city's coffee scene a much- needed (espresso) shot in the arm when it opened in 2010, and its high standards endure. Its gallery of work by local artists is an alternative distraction to the comings and goings outside.
But what a road to gaze out on. Bold Street is part of the city's Ropewalks district, named after the long, narrow stretches of ground where ships' ropes were crafted in the early maritime boom years. Later, it became Liverpool's answer to London's Bond Street: look to the building tops for a sense of how grand the road once was.
Nowadays, Ropewalks, found between Duke Street and Bold Street, is a hub of independent shopping. Try the two Utility stores for design-led products and gifts, News from Nowhere for books, and the Music Consortium for vinyl records. 69A is an attic-like trove of bric-a-brac and antiques, and surely the city's most atmospheric shop.
Next up, culture. Also in Ropewalks, the Foundation for Art and Creative Technology (FACT) is a cinema and digital arts centre. Even if the exhibitions leave you nonplussed, the building is a contemporary treat.
Cafés and crypts
Time for lunch. For veggies there's Mello Mello or The Egg. Alternatively, The Brink does a fine line in bargain specials and has excellent interior design. Leaf's art deco front looks good enough to eat, but opt for the cake that this 'punk tea shop' does so well.
Walk it off with an uphill stroll to the city's most beautiful road, Hope Street, stoppered at its ends by the two cathedrals. Outside the Anglican, look for Tracey Emin's tiny Liver Bird. Then climb to the roof for wonderful views. In the modern Catholic cathedral, head into Lutyens' crypt after admiring the building's colour-shifting interior.
This area, known as the Georgian or Cultural Quarter, is wonderful for pubs. Try The Philharmonic, The Belvedere Arms, Ye Cracke or Peter Kavanagh's. The cultural institutions here have given rise to a bountiful crop of restaurants. Try London Carriage Works and 60 Hope Street for fine dining. The Quarter, Host and The Side Door are more casual.
Mersey paradise
After Saturday's imbibing, head out for some salty air. Why not start things off with a ferry 'cross the Mersey? It's still the best way to see the waterfront.
On the Wirral side of the river, try Home at the Woodside ferry terminal for breakfast with a classic postcard view of Liverpool for company. Notice how the Pier Head's 'Three Graces' have plenty of contemporary architecture for company these days. It's the subject of much debate, and not only among locals. In mid-2012, UNESCO put the waterfront's World Heritage status on its 'in danger' list.
Visit the Museum of Liverpool once you step back off the ferry or try the esoteric Open Eye photography gallery. The city's character is defined by its port status so it's appropriate that so many cultural institutions cluster at the Mersey's banks.
For lunch, it's time to climb, to Panoramic 34, a high-end bar/restaurant 100 metres above sea level. The food's almost as good as the view. For something edgier, head to hipster hangout Camp and Furnace, a huge warehouse with quirky interior design and the city's finest Sunday roast.

Places to stay
Hope Street Hotel (from £80)
A 19th-century conversion merged with a handsome new build, Hope Street Hotel rises to the challenge of being located on the city's most beautiful street.
Base2Stay (from £49)
It's in the budget bracket, but you wouldn't think so as you approach this beautifully restored warehouse. Base2Stay is an independently run bargain.
Podzzz (from £39)

The artwork adorning the walls of public and guestroom spaces of large hospitality brand properties has traditionally been based on consistency from property-to-property. And while this approach still has its place in the development of hospitality art programs, it's typically specified by limited-service hotel owners who benefit from incorporating the standards package.

I have deep lateral creases where my cheek and under eye area meet when I smile. Is there anything I can do to puff out the creases or fill the gap between the two areas?
I am 36 and over time the creases are growing deeper. The lateral lines run from the start of my eye to the end of my eye/upper cheek area. The creasing under both eyes runs full length across my under eye and top cheek area.
Also due to the creasing when I smile, I now have lines/wrinkles (not creases) even when I am not smiling.

To the Editor:
The Jimmy Floyd Family Center staff would like to take this opportunity to thank everyone that helped put together and participate in our 10th annual Polar Bear Plunge held this past Saturday, Jan. 17.
We had the worst conditions to date for this year's plunge. The temperature of the water was a blistering 32 degrees and the air temperature was in the teens. We actually had to break the ice from the zero entry tiles just to have a place to enter the outdoor pool. Some areas of the pool had ice almost two inches thick. But that didn't stop 46 brave souls from taking the plunge.
The event raises money for the Wilson County Special Olympics and this year we raised around $3,200.
We would like to say a special thanks to Bruce Chaney, Director Construction & Facility Services of Cracker Barrel. What started out to be a couple of small donations from an email telling about the Polar Bear Plunge into a dare and donations attached if Bruce would take the plunge. Those couple of emails turned into several emails and a total of $1,285 donated in his honor from Cracker Barrel employees and an outside vendor. He must really be loved by his fellow employees.
Several businesses helped sponsor the Special Olympic Regional meet that was held afterwards-by donating food, drinks, and supplies. They are Chilis, Papa Johns, Wal-Mart, Save-A-Lot, Sonic, Whitts BBQ, Kmart, Krogers, Publix ofMt Juliet, Publix of Lebanon, White Castle, Ruby Tuesday's, and Clayborne's Bakery. Thank you for your support.
Also we want to thank all those that volunteered to help with the swim meet. Netrean Porter, Local Area Coordinator was in charge of the meet and volunteers.Tim Hill and Cindy Baker,Jimmy Floyd Center

More than a year and eleven - soon to be twelve - betas into the development of Firefox 4, frustration appears to be growing within developer ranks at continuing delays in the release of Mozilla's browser.
Last month, Neowin reported that Mozilla CTO and co-founder Brendan Eich had urged developers to take a hard-line on bugs slowing the release of the next major Firefox version.
Now, in a Google Group posting spotted by blog ConceivablyTech, Mozilla senior engineering director Damon Sicore has turned up the heat a little more, urging his team to ''take this hill'' and push through to ship a release candidate by February 25.
''Looking at the hardblocker bug list and not counting blocklist bugs, we have 22 bugs without patches (out of 51 open) that remain to be fixed to get to RC. This is it. It's time to do the final push to get Firefox 4 to release candidate,'' he said.

Today, a bipartisan Senate coalition offered legislation to reauthorize a vital children's health insurance program, known as the Children's Health Insurance Program (CHIP). With their commitment to ensure children in need have the opportunity to receive the care they deserve, Democrats worked with GOP Senators in crafting a bi-partisan bill that covers 3 million children who are currently uninsured and does so in a fiscally responsible manner.
Here are the highlights of the bi-partisan bill:
- The Senate Bill Provides Coverage For Over 3 Million Uninsured Kids. Currently, 6.6 million children receive their health care coverage through the Children's Health Insurance Program.In addition to preserving coverage for those children, the bi-partisan Senate bill would also cover an additional 3.2 million kids. [Senate Committee On Finance: Summary of Chairman's Mark]
- The Senate Bill Helps States Increase Enrollment. The bill provides $100 million in new grants to fund state outreach and enrollment efforts to reach more children eligible for CHIP and Medicaid. The bill also allocates $49 million for a demonstration project to streamline the enrollment process for low-income children already eligible for coverage. [Senate Committee On Finance: Summary of Chairman's Mark]
- The Senate Bill Improves Outreach to Children in Minority and Disadvantaged Communities. In addition to improving outreach to uninsured racial and ethnic minority children, the bi-partisan Senate bill also seeks to increase awareness of the Children's Health Insurance Program in rural America. [Senate Committee On Finance: Summary of Chairman's Mark]
- The Children's Health Insurance Program Has Played a Vital Role in Covering Minority Children. According to Families USA, the Children's Health Insurance Program has played a vital role in covering minority children. Approximately 50 percent of African-American and Latino children respectively are covered either by Medicaid or the Children's Health Insurance Program. [Families USA: SCHIP and Children's Health Coverage, 12/2006]
- The Senate Bill Improves Mental Health and Dental Coverage. The measure requires states that offer mental health services to provide coverage for those services on par with medical benefits offered under the Children's Health Insurance Program. The measure also provides $200 million in grants to states to improve dental coverage for children.
- The Senate Bill is Fiscally Responsible. As with the current Children's Health Insurance Program, the bi-partisan measure calls for a moderate increase in the tax already imposed on tobacco products. Specifically, the measure creates new revenue from a 61-cent increase in the excise tax on cigarettes, as well as a proportional increase on all other tobacco products. [Senate Committee On Finance: Summary of Chairman's Mark]
- Americans Overwhelmingly Support Increasing Taxes on Tobacco to Fund Children's Health Care. According to a recent survey, two-thirds of Americans support a tobacco tax increase to fund children's health care and most want to vote for a candidate who does as well. [American Medical Association Press Release, 6/19/07]
A number of groups have begun to spin fictions about the bi-partisan Senate Children's Health Insurance Program Reauthorization bill. Below are the top misleading arguments being made against the Senate bill and the corresponding facts.
RHETORIC: The Senate Children's Health Insurance Plan is the First Step to Government Health Care.
REALITY: The Children's Health Insurance Program is a public-private partnership that focuses on providing low-income children with health care coverage. The Senate measure in fact encourages public and private solutions to cover children.
RHETORIC: The Children's Health Insurance Program Wastes Money on Adults.
REALITY: The bi-partisan Senate measure curbs adult coverage in three key ways. First, the bill prohibits new waivers for parents and preserves the bar on new waivers for childless adults. Second, the bill calls on states covering childless adults to transition them out of the Children's Health Insurance Program within two years. Third, federal funding for coverage of low-income parents in states with existing waivers will be reduced after a three to four year period.
RHETORIC: The Senate Bill Amounts to a Middle Class Tax Increase.
REALITY: The Senate bill provides health insurance coverage for an additional 3.2 million low-income children by implementing a modest increase in the excise tax on tobacco products. In addition to an overwhelming majority of Americans supporting an increase in tobacco taxes to pay for children's health care, higher tobacco taxes will result fewer smokers, particularly among teens.
RHETORIC: The Senate Bill Will Provide Coverage for Families Earning $80,000 and Higher.
REALITY: The Children's Health Insurance Program is a federal-state partnership where states make the determination as to eligibility levels. Under the Senate bill, any state wishing to offer new coverage for children in families above 300 percent of the Federal poverty level will receive lower matching funds for that coverage.

Sailing in Portland Meetup Group
The Sailing in Portland Meetup Group promotes sailing opportunities, sailing education, practice and enhancement of sailing skills, sharing of information, and socializing among sailors and aspiring sailors in the Portland, Oregon, area and beyond.
To promote sailing opportunities, the Sailing in Portland group provides a forum for sailors to get together, those with boats and those without, to share sailing.
To promote sailing education, the Sailing in Portland group periodically offers an introductory sailing class - three in-class sessions, usually with opportunities for on-the-water sailing.
Members who finish the Sailing in Portland Meetup Group's introduction to sailing class, and who want to continue further in studying sailing, may have available to them the option to continue further study on more advanced sailing topics in a follow-up class that combines sailing opportunities with class session in order to practice techniques covered in class. Group members can always learn more by going sailing on different boats and perhaps taking American Sailing Association (ASA) or other classes.
CLICK HERE to see a video of Sailing in Portland Meetup Group members having some extreme fun sailing on the Columbia River on a hot summer day!
NOTE: The Sailing in Portland Meetup Group policy requires that members use their real names (last names optional) as their meetup names and use clearly-recognizable, close-up photos of themselves as their group profile photo. Your face in the photo should not be obscured by a helmet or something else. Portrait, "head-shot", photos are best, and should show only you. If another person is visible so that it is not clear which person is you, your membership application will be declined . We feel that this is necessary because our group meetup events usually take place on our boats. Many boat owners like to be able to recognize who is coming for meetup events on their boats. CLICK HERE for further explanation of this policy and why.
If you apply for membership in the Sailing in Portland Meetup Group make sure that you are willing to meet this policy - use your real name and a clearly-recognizable close-up photo of you alone.

NeoChord's first human patient
Remember NeoChord?
That's the Minneapolis biotech company founded in 2007 that is working on bringing to market a Mayo Clinic-created non-invasive method for fixing a leaky heart valve AKA mitral-valve regurgitation.Mayo Clinic does have an investment in an equity position in NeoChord.
Well, it has installed its heart fix in a human patient in Europe now.
That sounds like a solid step toward getting a product to market, assuming the test goes well.
Here's some from a press release on the study:
NeoChord, Inc., a venture-backed, Minneapolis-based medical technology
company, announced today that it has enrolled the first patient in its
European clinical trial.
The trial is being conducted in Germany, Denmark, Czech Republic and Norway.
"We are very pleased with the early results of this first procedure,"
said Per Wierup and Sten Lyager Nielsen, the cardiac surgeons who
performed the surgery. "The patient is an otherwise healthy, very
active 47-year-old male who preferred to not have a sternotomy or
cardiopulmonary bypass to fix his severe mitral regurgitation. The
NeoChord approach has successfully treated his mitral regurgitation and
potentially offers him a quick return to his military career and
favorite hobby, scuba diving."
Intra-operative transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) confirmed that
the patient's severe, eccentric mitral regurgitation was reduced to
zero or trace mitral regurgitation.
Giovanni Speziali, MD, the cardiac surgeon who is the primary inventor of the NeoChord device also attended the procedure. "These results, although early, are equivalent to what we obtain in traditional open heart surgery for correction of mitral regurgitation," said Dr. Speziali.

Kickstarter is the undisputed king of crowdfunding, the service entrepreneurs turn to when they need money to back their great idea. If people like it, they pledge cash to bankroll the project in return for perks like special edition versions of the end product. On March 3, Kickstarter announced it had surpassed $1 billion in pledges.
That $1 billion invested in new products over five years (Kickstarter launched in 2009) may seem like a drop in the bucket compared to the cash that tech companies like Apple (AAPL), Google (GOOG) and Facebook (FB) throw around on acquisitions. It pales in comparison to the $19 billion Facebook dropped on WhatsApp.
But Kickstarter projects have become the "garage" of this decade, especially for those in the technology field. Kickstarter provides a way for budding designers and engineers who have an idea to showcase it to potential customers and investors, and use their pledges for monetary support to get that idea from the drawing board to the shelf.
The crowdfunding model means you don't have to undertake the gruelling formality (and risk) of securing a bank loan, or hoping angel investors will commit a stack of money to an unproven idea — instead, you convince a bunch of people that they should buy your product and essentially pre-pay in order to ensure it gets off the ground.
Not every idea is a good one, and not every entrepreneur can successfully manage their Kickstarter project even if it is successfully funded. However, there have been some smash successes, like the Pebble smartwatch — which got its start as a Kickstarter project.
In recognition of Kickstarter surpassing the $1 billion mark, here are five of the most influential Kickstarter projects, at least when it comes to the consumer technology field.

Volume 17, Issue 1: Presbyterion

Well, not really. Over the years, I have come to take a dim view of the activities of what I call "all you need is

New Hancock TV Spot
You will believe a Fresh Prince can fly
Even in a summer awash with all manner of superheroics, we reckon that Hancock has the stones to stand out as a true crowd-pleaser.
It's got Empire favourite Peter Berg (he who helmed The Kingdom) directing, king of the A-list, Will Smith, starring and it's all about an alcoholic metahuman causing all manner of big-budget mayhem – what more could you want from a summer blockbuster? Judging by the latest TV spot, we're guessing very little.

Currently running for Colorado attorney general, garnett says the drawn-out case has exacted its toll.
"There are plenty of mistakes to go around, dating back 14 years ago," garnett said.
All I have been able to find is a cute picture of Spears and garnett with two comments and 30-some thumb icons of approval.
As if this weren't shocking enough, garnett went on to marry Bunny and to have four children with him.
garnett is one of the reasons why the case is now being looked at closer once more.
Then the brigades of Armistead and garnett moved forward, driving Hays brigade back through the batteries on the crest.
I accuse Councillor garnett in this matter of abusing his position as a councillor.
I cannot agree with Dr. garnett that the interest of Otway's plays arises from the situation only, not from the characters.
garnett opened the meeting; his speech was plain, straightforward, matter-of-fact.
I could have told Mabel that it was not such a sweet boon as she fancied: to visit the grand garnett mansion.

On Tuesday, Scout's 23rd ranked prospect in 2018, Taeshon Cherry, narrowed his list to eight.
The 6-foot-8, 220-pound hybrid forward from San Diego St. Augustine is a versatile prospect who impacts the game with his ability to face up be a mismatch on the perimeter, while he can also score on the block, plays hard, rebounds and defends.
Cherry, who told Scout he'll potentially decide in the late summer, broke down what he likes about each of his finalists in Arizona, Florida State, Gonzaga, Oregon, San Diego State, Texas A&M, UCLA and USC.
Arizona: "Sean Miller and I have built a great relationship over the last few years. He's been recruiting me since I was in 9th grade so I know him really well. He's a great coach and it's a great program."
Florida State: "Coach (Leonhard) Hamilton is like a father figure and when we talk, he talks to me about stuff outside of basketball. I'm going to take an official there in the fall and I can't wait."
Gonzaga: "Coach (Mark) Few went to the national championship so obviously he's doing something right. I like the way he plays his wings and stretch fours so I think I could fit in there really well."
Oregon: "Coach Dana Altman made the Final Four this year. He's a great coach and obviously they had a great team. I like their style of play."
San Diego State: "Coach (Brian) Dutcher just got the job and we have a great relationship. He learned from coach (Steve) Fisher and I think that's going to help him in the long run."
Texas A&M: "Coach (Billy) Kennedy is a great coach and has been on me since 8th grade. Coach (Amir) Abdur-Rahim is a great guy too. I like how they get up and down."
UCLA: "Coach (Steve) Alford is a good coach, he's been there since I was a sophomore. We've built a great relationship, I like the facilities and the game atmosphere."
USC: "Coach (Andy) Enfield and coach Tony (Bland) have been recruiting me hard. They bring their whole staff when they see me and I feel good about that. They're in the top two for me right now; that's a big school for me."

 By Kevin Werner, News Staff

 If Hamilton is going to prevent former senior employees from lobbying or having contact with their previous departmental colleagues, then politicians should be barred from doing the same, says city councillors.

The city's human resources staff acknowledged Hamiltoncould enforce restrictions for senior level staff, and could include a code of conduct provision that prevents them from leaving the city's employment only to return in another capacity. However, any temporary ban would need to be "clear, unambiguous, specific, as narrow as possible, imposed for a reasonable time frame, relate to a bona fide rationale for the restriction, involve the exchange of contractual consideration and be reasonable," stated human resources staff in a report to the audit and finance committee. They pointed out courts have upheld restrictions up to a year.

They said Hamilton would be able to establish a one-year ban on former staff taking a position with, or receiving benefits from, a company that has a business relationship with the city; prevent former employees from revealing confidential information and bar them for from lobbying the city for a year. A staff report is expected to be presented to the Sept. 22 audit and finance committee.

Stoney Creek councillor Brenda Johnson urged staff to include politicians in the post employment restrictions.

"We should lead by example," said Johnson at the Aug. 13 audit and finance committee,.

She said any new post-employment policy for councillors should be approved prior to the Oct. 27 municipal election because council will have at least four new politicians sitting around the table. If politicians want to establish a new post-employment policy, it needs to happen before the end of September when council stops holding meetings in deference to the municipal election.

"It's a perfect opportunity," she said. "We will be having a slew of people coming in."

Hamiltonpoliticians who have left office but have represented individuals or companies at city hall include former mayor Larry Di Ianni, and former Hamilton alderman Henry Merling, who has since passed away. Joe Rinaldo, a former city of Hamilton general manager of finance, has represented companies before city staff as a public sector consultant.

The proposed policy change was prompted by Ward 4 councillor Sam Merulla back in April who suggested a "cooling off period" on former city staff from taking a position as a lobbyist or consultant.

The federal government has established a five-year ban on all MPs, senators and senior staff from lobbying or serving on boards of directors of companies that deal with the federal government, meeting with their former department or being involved in any work that has been contracted out by the feds.

Helen Tomasik, executive director for Human Resources, said the city can incorporate its code of conduct policies, which includes prohibiting lobbying and other restrictions, within anew cityemployee's contract. Human Resources staff, though, was skeptical about inserting any prohibitions within an existing city employee's contract.

Stoney Creek councillor Brad Clark suggested all city employees should have to follow the city's code of conduct regardless of whether or not it is embedded in their contracts.

"It's a fine balance between employee rights and employer rights," he said.

Florida House of Representatives
The House has quite a number of committees meeting today; however, most of the bills are really nothing special. The Environment and Natural Resourcs Council will consider HB 531 by Rep. Kevin Ambler, which requires online dating services to provide a "dating safety" disclosure, including whether the site conducts backround checks on its members. The bill is being pushed by True.com, a site that conducts background to weed out married people and criminals.
The Committee on State Affairs will consider a couple of property tax bills: HB 261 by Rep. Carlos Lopez-Cantera, which amends the procedures used for determining the just valuaton of a property by removing the "highest and best use" language; and HB 389 by Rep. Garrett Richter, which alters the property tax notices sent to property owners to include previous and proposed millage rates.
The Committee on Local and Urban Affairs will hear a series of local bills, including two from the Hillsborough County Legislative Delegation – both by Rep. Rich Glorioso: HB 1153 on the Hillsborough Aviation Authority, a non-controversial bill that provides the authority with greater flexibility in the contracting of services; and HB 1293 on the Public Transportation Commission, allowing the PTC to adopt a rule that ensures there are more taxi cabs accessible for disabled persons.
Across the rotunda in the Senate, there are also a few bills to note: In the Higher Education Committee, SB 254 by Sen. Stephen Wise will provide a sales tax exemption for class-required textbooks sold at on-campus bookstores.† In the same committee, SB 552 by Sen. Gwen Margolis would allow charter counties to have a referendum on a ½ cent sales tax to fund some community college operations (workforce programs, capital expenditures, etc. as spelled out in the bill).
The Senate Community Affairs Committee will conduct a workshop on three property-tax bills: SB 786 by Sen. Rudy Garcia is a shell bill on Property Tax administration, SB 508 by Sen. Mike Fasano is a bill to remove "highest and best use" from the process for determining just value of a property, and SB 722 by Sen. Jeff Atwater also removes "highest and best use" but adds that income-producing properties should include the income as determining the value of the property. [Sidebar: The Orange County Property Appraiser a few years ago tried using the income value for billboard properties. The outdoor advertising industry fought back, mostly because the provision in SB 722 did not exist in Florida law.]
- Shell Bill is a bill that simply states that the sponsor intends to file legislation on a specific subject. The actualy substance of a shell bill is introduced at its first committee hearing, in the form of an amendment.
- Workshop is a public hearing on a topic or specific bill, testimony is heard from the public, and staff may provide analysis and research. Members will often even debate and question each other about the subject matter. The important distinction is that no formal vote is expected on the bill (and I believe rules prohibit a final vote when the public notice is for a workshop only).
† Disclosure: My brother works for Barnes and Noble College Bookstore, but at a school in New Hampshire. Barnes and Noble College Bookstore is a separate company, but manages 21 on-campus bookstores in Florida, including Florida Southern College, Eckerd College, the University of Tampa and the University of South Florida here in the Tampa Bay area.

Rockhopper says it is adding another Trislander to cope with growing passenger numbers.
Visitor statistics for 2004 show an increase in the number of air passengers in the Bailiwick.
This has prompted the Alderney-based airline to increase the size of its fleet to five Trislanders, with a sixth planned before the autumn.
Rockhopper has also applied to add a route between Alderney and Southampton to its network, with a hearing for the application expected in April.

Vacuum Metallizing
DUNMORE Corporation is one of the world's leading providers of vacuum metallization services and contract metalization with over 45 years of experience.
Vacuum Metallization Process
Vacuum metallization is a form of physical vapor deposition, a process of combining metal with a non-metallic substrate through evaporation. The most common metal used in vacuum metallization is aluminum for a variety of reasons such as cost, thermodynamic, and reflective properties. The evaporation takes place by feeding aluminum onto heated sources or boats, which operate at approximately 1500°C (2700°F). The vacuum metalization chamber's atmosphere is evacuated to a vacuum level suitable for the evaporation of the aluminum wire. Upon contact with the substrate being processed, the aluminum vapor condenses and creates a uniform layer of vacuum deposited aluminum.
Vacuum Metalization for Aesthetics
Vacuum Metallization is done for many reasons; aesthetically it adds a unique appearance. The metallized substrate can have a highly reflective mirror like finish or be used in conjunction with other processes, like coating or laminating, to create a decorative effect. Film that has undergone vacuum metallization can also be dyed and/or coated to give the substrate a unique color. Additionally, any vacuum metallized film can be laminated to a variety of other substrates, such as leather and synthetic fabrics, to give the material a unique and high-end appearance. Some additional decorative possibilities include:
- Appliance surfacing films
- Label stock for a variety of applications
- Personal care packaging
- Merchandizing
Vacuum Metallization for Insulation Applications
Vacuum metallizing is primarily used to increase functionality of a substrate. A vacuum metallized surface is ideal for insulation, mostly because of its increased reflectance/ radiant properties. Commercial and residential radiant barrier reflective insulation materials get their functionality from the vacuum metallization process. Thermal insulation systems that are used to protect spacecraft are constructed of multiple layers of vacuum metallized polyimide films.
Vacuum Metalization Increases Barrier Properties
Another function derived from the vacuum metallization process is increased barrier properties. Metallization of a plastic substrate makes in a great moisture and air barrier. Applications include food & beverage packaging and medical applications. Furthermore, the vacuum metallizing process decreases the substrates light transmission making it an effective light barrier. The light transmission is controlled by the amount of vacuum deposited aluminum. Some functional barrier and insulation applications include:
- Aerospace thermal protection systems
- Electronic labels
- Radiant barrier insulation
- Medical packaging
- Window treatments
Terminology Note
Vacuum metallizing and vacuum metalizing are used interchangeably, as are vacuum metallization and vacuum metalization. Vacuum coating is another term that is synonymous with vacuum metalizing.

DUNMORE Corporation has been providing vacuum metallization contract manufacturing services for nearly forty years, please contact us to find out more about vacuum metalizing and related services.

|Return to New Faculty Resources
8. What's in my office (wherever it is); what's not?
Here's a list of issues you need to track as you plan your move onto campus. Policies, practices and procedures vary from department to department, so it is important that you recognize the value of your new department's administrative assistant as a key ally in this process.
Physical address of your office
Physical address of your office
Your campus address will include the building name, the department's office number, plus the standard city information which is the same for all departments, no matter where they are physically located. For example:
Priscilla Habermas
435 Humanities
University at Albany
1400 Washington Ave.
Albany NY 12222
For campus mail it is usually sufficient to use the name of the addressee and the department name, although you may want to include the office building and number, just to be sure.
Office availability (move-in) date
Be sure to check with the departmental administrative assistant to make sure your assigned office will truly be vacant and ready when you arrive. This seems obvious, but it can be a problem if you are moving into an office formerly held by a retiring professor, or that is undergoing renovation.
Building swipe card for weekend/evening entry
Your UAlbany Faculty ID card will be programmed to work on the swipe machines specific to your building. Your department chair or administrative assistant will need to request this access for you.
Office key(s)
Your departmental secretary will need to ensure that an official key request has been submitted and approved before you will receive your key. You will want to begin this process during the summer if possible, so you can avoid having to wait for your keys. The key shop is in the basement (tunnel) of the Social Science building, beside the loading docks.
There should be a standard phone already connected in your office. Be sure to change the greeting as soon as you have established your password through ITS phone service.
For campus calls dial the last five numbers of the 7 digit number. For local phone calls dial 9 + the 7-digit local number. If you want more features than the standard phone provides (e.g., speaker phone, caller recognition), you may need to spend your own start-up money, or negotiate for a special phone with your department chair. For long distance calls you will need to have assigned to you a personal phone code that allows the department to track long distance calls. Read about this code at the site referenced above, and see your departmental secretary or technology coordinator for help in getting this code. Be sure to keep it in a secure but convenient place (or memorize it), as you will probably need it often if you work at the national or international level.
Office furnishings
You should clarify when you negotiate for the new position whether items such as desks, chairs, curtains/shades, computers, etc. are automatically provided, or if they will be paid for out of your start-up package (if you have one). All orders for new furnishing should begin with your department chair and/or secretary. Keep in mind that, depending on the items needed and the source of the funding, it may be several weeks before delivery.

Cloud PBX – Do you know enough about Cloud PBX to be worried about it?
If you are worried about Cloud PBX, then you don't know enough about Cloud PBX. If you are running a business you have a lot to worry about, and your phone system may seem like the least of those problems. However, a good phone system can make a big difference, and if you are looking for efficiency and low cost, your best option may be a Cloud PBX system. What is a Cloud PBX system? It sounds confusing, but the answer is quite simple. Cloud PBX is merely a phone service which is provided through the internet, instead of a phone line.
Did you know that Cloud PBX can offer you peace of mind?
When you are in the Cloud, using a Cloud PBX, you no longer need to worry whether or not you have a scalable, flexible, and reliable, business phone system.
- More and more businesses are seeing the advantage to switching over to cloud PBX phone systems.
- The phone service provider is responsible for the maintenance of your cloud PBX system, allowing you to focus on other areas of your business.
- In addition to the maintenance and hassle free advantages of Cloud PBX, there are many other reasons that make it increasingly popular.
How big can you go? Cloud PBX can take you there.
- A key benefit to Cloud PBX is scalability.
- This means that your Cloud PBX system will not limit how many lines you have.
- With normal telephone systems, it is necessary to pay more or install additional wiring to add another phone line, but this is not the case with a Cloud PBX system.
- Cloud PBX is also more flexible than other phone systems.
- Because the whole system operates through the internet, you can have a telephone connected to the hosted PBX service without geographic limitations.
- As a business expands this is an especially nice feature, because the Cloud PBX can connect employees in different states while all being included in the same system.
- This makes it easier to call and manage business aspects even if one phone is far from another.
Here's the scoop on Cloud PBX.
Cloud PBX is a new internet phone technology which is making phone services cheaper and more convenient for many people around the globe. However, Cloud PBX isn't a phone system which only has one form; instead there are several options or services available on the Cloud PBX system, such as Public Cloud PBX, Private Cloud PBX, and Hybrid Cloud PBX. Each of these Cloud PBX systems uses VoIP-voice over internet protocol- technology, and are great phone systems in a number of ways.
VoIP and basic Cloud PBX technology have been around for a few years, but the technology is still advancing making PBX systems increasingly popular and even more beneficial. In fact, Cloud PBX has been so successful, as a phone service alternative, that advances are being made every day. Your PBX host provider can choose from the very best of the emerging technologies and upgrade your system with little or no hardware costs.
The "Cloud" in Cloud PBX systems, just means that the Cloud PBX phone system uses an internet connection to connect you to the person you're speaking with instead of telephone wires. This makes expansion and mobility in a business much easier, because your business won't have to commit to a different phone service which won't be able to offer you the benefits that Cloud PBX can.
One benefit of a PBX phone system is that your business telephone service can grow with your business, add capabilities when needed and remove capabilities when needed. You choose the services, and the Cloud PBX will meet your needs.
Cloud PBX is also a good phone system choice for a business, because there is no additional charge for additional phone lines, making business expansion cheaper and easier. The Cloud PBX system is also mobile- your business can move location, or an employee can move, and the whole Cloud PBX system can travel with them. You even keep your old phone number. Cloud PBX has all the features other phone systems offer, such as call waiting, caller id, and other services, while still being a cheaper phone option. Your business telephone system can serve your office needs well into the future.

(written from a Production point of view)
Star Trek: New Worlds is a video game from Interplay set in the Star Trek universe in 2287.
A port was at one point announced for the Sega Dreamcast console but it was cancelled and never released.
The game starts in the Romulan Neutral Zone after the events of Star Trek V: The Final Frontier. A Romulan starship, the Melak, has been conducting tests with 'Project Shiva', possibly to unleash devastating torpedoes, capable of wasting ships and objects with one blow. The USS Explorer has been reassigned to go to the Neutral Zone to intercept the Romulans; however, the Klingons have the same idea. Claiming the sector as theirs, the Klingons have sent a D7 class battle cruiser to the Melak to intercept them, but the Melak ignores the Klingons and fires the torpedo at the test subject. With a great explosion, the test object is obliterated and the D7 has been dashed off-course, while the Melak's shields work furiously to protect the vessel. The radiation and blast-curve coëfficient are reported nominal, indicating the test to be a success... until the sensors detect a deep gravity well. The Melak is caught in this well, and is destroyed, along with the crew. When the Explorer enters the Neutral Zone, it reports to Starfleet that many unknown star systems and planets have appeared from out of nowhere.
This is the point where the game begins. The player has three playable races: the Federation (who wants to protect these new worlds and study them), the Klingons (currently running short on the supply of dilithium, since they're at an economic war with the Federation and the Klingon moon Praxis is on the verge of exhaustion, so they see these new systems, referred as 'Tabula Rasa', as a gift straight from the hands of Kahless), and the Romulans (who claim these new worlds as theirs because the Shiva project was tested in their part of the Neutral Zone). Every race has fourteen missions; in eight of them, they encounter each other on the same planet. Ten missions are the same, but each race has an own goal. The player's duty is to build up, expand and defend his or her colonies, gather minerals to build bases and forces, and encounter new races such as the strange, naive Taubat, the ancient Hubrin (who prove to be essential for the three major powers as the game envelops) and an extremely powerful warrior race called the Metar.

Great Scot ... Edinburgh, Britain's second favourite city, according to Hotels.com
Photograph: Frank Rumpenhorst/EPA
Edinburgh is a city of castles and cafes, Trainspotting and the Tattoo, and home to the world's largest arts festival, and as it prepares for thousands of tourists to descend upon its streets next week for the Fringe, it appears the flower of Scotland is in full bloom.
A survey by Hotels.com has revealed that Edinburgh is the most popular spot for British tourists after London, and not just for the festival, it seems. According to Hotels.com spokesperson Alison Couper, the city is "the perfect combination of historical interest, culture and shopping and entertainment".
Next most popular after London and Edinburgh in the survey, which looked at favourite destinations for locals outside their capital cities, were Bath, Oxford and Manchester, followed by Glasgow, Bristol, Newcastle, Cardiff, Cambridge and Leeds.
But has the survey got it right? Would these cities make it onto your top 10? And why isn't Milton Keynes in the list?
A quick look at Been there, Guardian Unlimited's interactive travel site where readers share their tips, suggests a similar pattern to the survey. While London has the most amount of tips on the site, Edinburgh is not doing too badly in second place, and as Been there is featuring tips on the Scottish capital this week, there's time yet for it to steal the crown. You might even want to give it a nudge by posting a tip yourself. Or then again, if Milton Keynes is your thing ...

A Technique for Dynamic Updating of Java Software
Orso, Alessandro
Rao, Anup
Harrold, Mary Jean
MetadataShow full item record
TDuring maintenance, systems are updated to correct faults, improve functionality, and adapt the software to changes in its execution environment. The typical software-update process consists of stopping the system to be updated, performing the actual update of the code, and restarting the system. For systems such as banking and telecommunication software, however, the cost of downtime can be prohibitive. The situation is even worse for systems such as air-traffic controllers and life-support software, for which a shut-down is in general not an option. In those cases, the use of some form of on-the-fly program modification is required. In this paper, we propose a new technique for dynamic updating of Java software. Our technique is based on the use of proxy classes and does not require any support from the runtime system. The technique allows for updating a running Java program by substituting, adding, and deleting classes. We also present Dusc (Dynamic Updating through Swapping of Classes), a tool that we developed and that implements our technique. Finally, we describe an empirical study that we performed to validate the technique on a real Java subject. The results of the study show that our technique can be effectively applied to Java software with only little overhead in both execution time and program size.
