You gotta love the F1 Camaro! As the cleanest of GM's five generations of pony cars, it was Chevrolet's spot-on reaction to the original Mustang which tossed 100 octane racing fuel onto a rivalry that's still burning strong. Today, when it comes to investment grade classics, you simply can't go wrong with a first generation Z/28. And, since RK Motors Charlotte retails more first-rate Z/28s than anyone in the world, you've certainly come to the right place! Fresh out of a top notch rotisserie restoration, this 1968 Z/28 Rally Sport is the perfect car for any enthusiast who wants a show stopping combination of classic muscle and old school style. If you're in the market for a showroom fresh collector car that you can enjoy on weekends and make a little money on down the road, this Z/28 is exactly what you've been looking for!
We'll begin with a look at this Camaro's cowl tag and VIN number to confirm the accuracy of its restoration and powertrain components.
- 1 = Chevrolet
- 2 = Camaro
- 4 = 8 cylinder engine
- 37 = Coupe
- 8 = 1968 model year
- N = Norwood, Ohio assembly plant
- 427902 = Sequence number
- 05A = Assembled during the first week of May, 1968
- 68 = 1968 model year
- 12437 = 1: Chevrolet, 2: Camaro, 4: Fixed digit, 37: Hardtop
- NOR = Norwood, Ohio assembly plant
- 128088 = Fisher body number
- 716 = Ivory Houndstooth custom bucket interior
- UU = LeMans Blue exterior paint
Take a close look at the pictures of this striking 1968 Camaro and you'll find a car which is completely accurate to how it rolled off of GM's Norwood, Ohio assembly line. Its body is straight and clean from any angle; and great care was taken to ensure that its solid, dent-free panels exhibit correct fit and finish, all its gaps are narrow, and all its moving parts function correctly. On top of that spectacular body, GM code U LeMans Blue glistens under expertly stenciled Z/28 rally stripes which have been sealed in a thick clearcoat shell and buffed to a brilliant shine. The result is a serious competition Camaro which sets a very high standard for any other pony cars that dare show their faces on the show field!
At the front of the car, a stainless trimmed Rally Sport grille frames a centered and vertically oriented "RS" emblem between correctly functioning Rally Sport headlights. Below those headlights, an option D80 SCCA Trans Am style front spoiler, which is supported by correct brace bars, props clear square parking lights at the base of a show worthy, body-width chrome bumper. At the sides of the car, great looking standard stainless rocker trim, which follows the bottom accent lines of the cars panels, combines with dent-free stainless fender trim, chrome GM door handles and a chrome driver's side mirror to provide some much needed visual flash. And at the top of the car, like-new glass is completely outlined in showroom fresh stainless trim. At the back of the car, an option D80 decklid spoiler aligns perfectly with the solid fenders to perch above two chrome trimmed RS-exclusive tail lights and a correct black and chrome Rally Sport fuel cap. And a second pristine chrome bumper hangs above correct '68 Camaro Rally Sport reverse lights. Naturally, this investment grade Camaro wears all the right Z/28/RS ornamentation which includes chrome "Camaro by Chevrolet" header panel and trunk lid emblems, red and chrome "Z/28" fender emblems, and chrome "Rally Sport" scripts just behind the front tires.
Open the hood on this show stopping Camaro and you'll find an original, 3914678 branded 302 V8 which was assembled in Flint, Michigan (V) on April (04) 29th (29) of 1968 as a Chevrolet Z/28 302 (MO). Straight from the factory, this high performance SCCA Mustang slayer utilized high flow rectangular port heads, a forged steel crankshaft, forged steel connecting rods and forged aluminum pistons to twist 11 to 1 compression into upwards of 350 horsepower. At the top of the motor a correctly decaled cowl plenum air system feeds a large 4053 Holley 780 CFM carburetor which sits on a familiar Winters intake. At the sides of that intake, correct 3917291 heads, which are dated April (D) 16th (16) and April (D) 18th (18) of 1968 (8) prop correct chrome valve covers above 3892683 left and 3872730 right exhaust manifold which sends spent gases into a new, correctly modeled exhaust system. At the back of the motor, a correct points distributor sends power through correct Packard TV R Suppression wires; and at the front of the motor, a correct radiator sits under a correct fan shroud next to an appropriately topped battery. The small block 302 snarls and barks like a real competition piece; and its engine compartment is top notch in every way with details such as correct GM hoses and tower clamps, new heat shields, a Delco Moraine brake booster, and evenly sprayed Chevy Orange and flat black paint. The car even retains its original, and functional, smog equipment!
The cars high-winding small block is backed by an original Muncie M21 4-speed close ratio manual transmission. That Muncie, which displays a correct 3925660 casting number, a correct 18N427902 partial VIN and a P8D24 build code that translates as a Muncie (P) that was assembled on April (D) 24th (24) of 1968 (8), spins a correct 12 bolt rear end which spins big, 3.73 gears. Holding that drivetrain off the ground is a high performance suspension which has been completely rebuilt to factory specifications and features four piston Corvette style front disc brakes, a correct fast-ratio steering box, tuned coil springs, correct multi-leaf rear springs and tuned spiral shock absorbers. Like this Camaro's engine bay, its chassis has been restored to exactly replicate the cars factory appearance using correct fasteners and presents as spotless and factory fresh in every respect. Clean floors and flat black paint make the detailing pop and things like the cars new stainless fuel tank and stainless brake and fuel lines really stand out; and there's a freshly welded exhaust system which traces the car's original pipes and includes a correct transversely mounted muffler. At the corners, new 15 inch Chevy Rally wheels with correct stainless center caps and trim rings wear correctly-sized E70-15 Goodyear Wide Tread GT bias-ply tires.
Nothing beats LeMans Blue, Houndstooth fabric and Ivory vinyl; and this car mixes all three into a striking color combination which looks almost as good as today's high dollar custom cockpits. The Ivory trimmed and Houndstooth lined buckets are in fantastic shape and combine with an optional Z87 deluxe interior package, which includes Ivory molded door panels, wood grain dash applique, and bright pedal trim to elevate the cockpit to a whole new level! In front of the driver, a good looking dash houses beautifully restored gauges, which include a tic-toc-tachometer, next to wood grain applique which hangs levers for the cars heater above a correct Delco AM radio. Below that dash an option D55 center console houses option U17 four pack gauges at the base of a completely chrome Muncie short throw shifter which sits inside a great looking wood trimmed shift plate. Below the console, correct black carpet is bordered by chrome Fisher Body sill plates, protected by black rubber floor mats and anchors traditional GM seatbelts. At the sides of the seats, Ivory door panels are decorated with excellent looking reproduction stainless trim and correct white inlayed "Camaro" emblems. And above the seats, a tight black headliner retains all of its color and features a chrome trimmed dome light. In front to the driver, you'll find a correct option N34 rosewood rimmed and satin aluminum finished GM rally wheel. And behind the cockpit, the cars accurately restored trunk carries a new trunk mat beneath a ful-size spare tire and correct decklid decals.
Documentation for this car includes a reproduction window sticker.
This 1968 Camaro Z/28 is built the way many of us would have spec-d our own if were knew then what we know now. Disc brakes are almost mandatory for a car with this Camaro's performance envelope. If you're looking for an investment grade, extremely well done Camaro that is as complete as when it rolled out of the showroom in 1968, this is your car!

by Mark Shwartz, Precourt Institute for Energy at Stanford University
Stanford CA (SPX) Oct 18, 2013
Scientists have created a heat-resistant thermal emitter that could significantly improve the efficiency of solar cells. The novel component is designed to convert heat from the sun into infrared light, which can than be absorbed by solar cells to make electricity - a technology known as thermophotovoltaics. Unlike earlier prototypes that fell apart at temperatures below 2200 degrees Fahrenheit (1200 degrees Celsius), the new thermal emitter remains stable at temperatures as high as 2500 F (1400 C).
"This is a record performance in terms of thermal stability and a major advance for the field of thermophotovoltaics," said Shanhui Fan, a professor of electrical engineering at Stanford University. Fan and his colleagues at the University of Illinois-Urbana Champaign (Illinois) and North Carolina State University collaborated on the project. Their results are published in the October 16 edition of the journal Nature Communications.
A typical solar cell has a silicon semiconductor that absorbs sunlight directly and converts it into electrical energy. But silicon semiconductors only respond to infrared light. Higher-energy light waves, including most of the visible light spectrum, are wasted as heat, while lower-energy waves simply pass through the solar panel.
"In theory, conventional single-junction solar cells can only achieve an efficiency level of about 34 percent, but in practice they don't achieve that," said study co-author Paul Braun, a professor of materials science at Illinois. "That's because they throw away the majority of the sun's energy."
Thermophotovoltaic devices are designed to overcome that limitation. Instead of sending sunlight directly to the solar cell, thermophotovoltaic systems have an intermediate component that consists of two parts: an absorber that heats up when exposed to sunlight, and an emitter that converts the heat to infrared light, which is then beamed to the solar cell.
"Essentially, we tailor the light to shorter wavelengths that are ideal for driving a solar cell," Fan said. "That raises the theoretical efficiency of the cell to 80 percent, which is quite remarkable."
So far, thermophotovoltaic systems have only achieved an efficiency level of about 8 percent, Braun noted. The poor performance is largely due to problems with the intermediate component, which is typically made of tungsten - an abundant material also used in conventional light bulbs.
"Our thermal emitters have a complex, three-dimensional nanostructure that has to withstand temperatures above 1800 F (1000 C) to be practical," Braun explained. "In fact, the hotter the better."
In previous experiments, however, the 3D structure of the emitter was destroyed at temperatures of around 1800 F (1000 C). To address the problem, Braun and his Illinois colleagues coated tungsten emitters in a nanolayer of a ceramic material called hafnium dioxide.
The results were dramatic. When subjected to temperatures of 1800 F (1000 C), the ceramic-coated emitters retained their structural integrity for more than 12 hours. When heated to 2500 F (1400 C), the samples remained thermally stable for at least an hour.
The ceramic-coated emitters were sent to Fan and his colleagues at Stanford, who confirmed that devices were still capable of producing infrared light waves that are ideal for running solar cells.
"These results are unprecedented," said former Illinois graduate student Kevin Arpin, lead author of the study. "We demonstrated for the first time that ceramics could help advance thermophotovoltaics as well other areas of research, including energy harvesting from waste heat, high-temperature catalysis and electrochemical energy storage."
Braun and Fan plan to test other ceramic-type materials and determine if the experimental thermal emitters can deliver infrared light to a working solar cell.
"We've demonstrated that the tailoring of optical properties at high temperatures is possible," Braun said. "Hafnium and tungsten are abundant, low-cost materials, and the process used to make these heat-resistant emitters is well established. Hopefully these results will motivate the thermophotovoltaics community to take another look at ceramics and other classes of materials that haven't been considered."
Other authors of the study are Nicholas Sergeant, Linxiao Zhu and Zongfu Yu of Stanford; Andrew Cloud, Hailong Ning, Justin Mallek, Berc Kalanyan, Gregory Girolami and John Abelson of Illinois; and Mark Losego and Gregory Parsons of North Carolina State University.

Antennas Digital
There is a lot of confusion in the market over what an HDTV antenna really is. In fact, many writers have accused antenna manufacturers and retailers of trying to mislead consumers in order to sell more antennas. The reality is that from an engineering perspective, there really is no such thing as an "HDTV Antenna."
Television signals are broadcast in two ranges: Ultra High Frequencies (UHF) and Very High Frequencies (VHF). TV antennas are typically designed to be responsive for one of these ranges although many antennas can actually capture some signals in both frequencies. Since more than 90% of all HDTV broadcasts are transmitted in UHF, it became common for consumers, retailers, and manufacturers to refer to UHF antennas as HDTV antennas. In reality, there are a number of stations that broadcast HDTV in VHF so an HDTV antenna could actually be either a VHF or UHF antenna.
Since most of our UHF antennas will capture high frequency VHF signals (Channels 7-13), we typically only recommend using VHF antennas to capture the low end of the VHF band (Channels 2-6). Occasionally, a VHF capable antenna may also be required on channels 7 and 8. For your convenience we have highlighted these 34 channels (channels 2-8) in red in a list of all of the VHF Digital Stations.

I also think it's the same top. The difference is that the second model took a nap in hers (at least that what it looks like).
How are those linen beach pants working out for you? I keep coming back to them, but haven't pulled the trigger. I want to buy 3 pairs, but I don't need anymore pants.
It's not the same top. Look at the stitching over the bosom. on th first sweater it's almost like a bikini top with a close-knit weave.
the tops are even different lengths and the stripes are different too!
I've always had good luck with Victoria's. My only problem is I don't look like those models.
I get cute stuff some of the time; in fact, some of the other things in this order were keepers. It's a crapshoot, though.
I get tired of everything being so sheer...another way to cut corners and quality, played off as "sexy."
That's not necessarily a problem, BTW!
I've always had good luck with Victoria's. My only problem is I don't look like those models.
I think this thread is really fascinating in how people are seeing these images differently.
It seems so freaking obvious to me they are the same top! [Sorry.]
I'm bored so I spent way too much time comparing every inch, position, model, lighting, undergarments. To me it's the same shirt. I rarely like loose knit things but I actually kind of like this one.
Some of my favorite tops and panties are from VS. I have some long sleeve jersey tees from them that are years old and so soft and nice. Love them. But some of their stuff is certainly crap, especially their acrylic sweaters.

All i gotta say is "4 MORE YEARS"
[np_storybar title="'Obama Doesn't Know How to Fix Economy,' Romney says: Video" link="#1″][/np_storybar]
LEXINGTON, Va. — Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney assailed Obama's foreign policy in a speech Monday saying the risk of conflict in the Middle East has grown under President Barack Obama's leadership.
With his speech at the Virginia Military Institute, Romney is hoping to undo a string of foreign policy stumbles, taking aim at an issue where polls show President Barack Obama holds a clear lead.
Saying there is, "a longing for American leadership in the Middle East," Romney called for the U.S. to take a more assertive role in Syria. He also wants new conditions on aid to Egypt and would impose tighter sanctions on Iran.
With the race growing tighter after Obama's poor performance in last week's presidential debate — the first of three — Democrats and Republicans now are looking to Thursday's debate confrontation between…

Music Worth Watching
I'm usually not much of a biography fan. Don't read 'em much, and I almost never tune in to the Biography channel.
Despite that fact, I happened across a trio of documentaries that I really enjoyed, and I'd like to spread the word, so to speak.
The first I may have mentioned on FB already, or made a passing reference here a while back. It's the biopic of the Canadian band Rush, called 'Beyond the Lighted Stage'. It tracks the band through the garage days in suburban Toronto up to the present, and even for those who aren't hard-core Rush fans, it's an entertaining look at life on the road and in the studio.
There's a boatload of interviews with musicians, and the list of those influenced by Rush might surprise you!
It's very entertaining and well worth watching, so grab a copy on eBay, or see if you can get it through Netflix.
The next one might not appeal to people named Lebowski, or The Dude, or His Dudeness, Duder, or El Duderino if you're not into the whole brevity thing.
I was flipping channels on cable the other night and stumbled on the Eagles biopic called 'The History of the Eagles, Pt.1' on Showtime. There's apparently a Pt 2, but I haven't seen it yet. Part One runs from the late 1960's up to the early 1980's, when the Eagles broke up after the album 'The Long Run'.
It covers a lot of ground, from the early careers of Glenn Frey and Don Henley to the LA music scene in the 70's. I learned a lot I didn't know. F'rinstance, I knew that the Eagles had links to Jackson Browne and Linda Ronstadt, but did you know that Frey sang with Bob Seger?
It's a brand new film, so I guess you're SOL if you don't have Showtime. Still, it'll get released on DVD sooner or later. It's a must for Eagles fans.
The last one I found on YouTube. It's a BBC Scotland production on Gerry Rafferty. (Baker Street, Right Down the Line)
Split into 4 parts on YouTube, it's about an hour long and covers his partnership with comedian/singer Billy Connolly in the Humblebums, and Joe Egan in Stealers Wheel and on to his solo career.
I really enjoyed this one, and you can't beat the price! Check it out!!

There are two key questions to ask of the budget update yesterday: will it help the economy, and are its savings of good quality?
It's no great surprise that developments since the budget in May have ripped $27 billion out of fiscal finances over the next four years. What was at issue yesterday was how far the government would go to plug that gap.
They talked big, indicating that ministers would make substantial cuts required to move the budget back into surplus next financial year. In practice, however, the savings that were announced yesterday weren't that big: at $6.8 billion over the next four years it weighs in at 0.1 per cent of Australia's national income, or about 0.4 per cent of federal spending over that period.
Or, in other words, the government's bark was worse than its bite, a trend evident from both sides of politics for some time now.
Moreover, some of the decisions simply reflect shuffling money between years, making this year worse so that next year can be (artificially) better. That shuffling is just window dressing as far as the Reserve Bank of Australia is concerned, in effect doing nothing to change the spending power available to Australians.
That leaves the genuine savings (genuine in the sense of taking money out of the pockets of punters and of businesses) simply too small of themselves to convince the RBA to react to yesterday's budget update with an offsetting cut to official interest rates.
Indeed, the rough rule of thumb is that the government would have needed to have had genuine cuts of $3.5 billion a year to get the RBA over the line on a rate cut, and what was actually announced yesterday fell substantially shy of that mark.
Still, that may be a good thing.
I'm happy with the government talking big but acting small. Had it actually cut deeply into the budget just to ensure a surplus next year, that would be draining money out of the economy at the same time as the worsening crisis in Europe threatens the confidence of families and businesses that may also be cutting back on their own spending as a result.
That means this nation ran the risk that the government would be adding its own layer of spending cuts atop those that weakening confidence is already generating in Australia, among families and businesses. And it would have meant that the government was draining extra money out of the economy at the same time as the RBA – through its Melbourne Cup rate cut – had opted to put some money back in.
(It also means that if the RBA does cut interest rates next week, it will be because Europe's self-inflicted wounds look like weighing on the local outlook, not because of the decisions in Canberra yesterday.)
So I'm pretty happy with the outcome on the first test here: it's not that this budget update aids the outlook for the Australian economy, it is more that it has done very little damage to the economy.
However, in the upside down world of Canberra politics – one in which "the return to surplus" is the biggest game in town, and where the electorate believes that governments that preside over surpluses are geniuses and those who have deficits are dunces – that may be the best outcome we could have hoped for.
Looking longer term, when Europe's crisis will be a faded memory, this budget update will be judged differently. Over time the quality of the decisions taken will be more important. There is clearly some good news on the latter front, with some spending cuts occurring in areas where Australia wasn't getting much bang for its buck.
The baby bonus is a classic example of that – it costs a lot, but doesn't achieve much (rather less, for example, than paid maternity leave will achieve).
It also makes sense to tie the payment of family benefits to immunisation.
Finally, some of the savings are expected to grow over time (the government is budgeting for an ongoing $4 billion to $5 billion a year), and that will be important given the expected growth in health and ageing related costs in coming decades.
Yet those savings just aren't that big compared with the budget as a whole. Besides, some of the other moves (such as the changes to fuel credits) have less to recommend them; they are more a symptom of the scramble for surplus than they are indicative of a determination to get good value for taxpayers' dollars.
Still, the simple summary is the obvious one: the budget update yesterday wasn't bad, and it certainly could have been a lot worse.

SexTalk LIVE! is edutainment - a cross between educational and entertaining programming. Come learn and laugh! Sunday nights 10p to midnight EST!
Bowling Green, OH (PRWEB) September 15, 2013
Entering the seasonal lineup of SexTalk LIVE! radio show's eighth year, host Andrea Adams-Miller, relationship consultant, interviews two interesting talents: Mailyn Faulkner, vocalist, and author, Jon Morgan Woodward, Sunday night September 15th, 2013 from 10p to midnight EST.
The show SexTalk LIVE! will be on 88.1FM WBGU in the NW Ohio area. Additionally, the show will be webcast internationally. Listen LIVE to the webcast via [http://www.igniteyourrelationships.com/sex-talk-live-radio/
SexTalk LIVE! is an edutainment program providing real frank discussions about sex, sexuality, relationships, products, books, and services relating to sex, sexuality, and relationships in a positive educational environment.
Call-ins to SexTalk LIVE! can be made at the telephone numbers 419-372-8810 and toll-free at 1-899-792-4836. All calls are pre-screened before being aired.
Adams-Miller, host of SexTalk LIVE! the past eight (8) years shares, "While humor, song, and news are between the interviews during this two (2) hour weekly program, we aim to provide a candid dialogue with real people about real situations for the purpose of education and enlightenment. While we laugh a lot on this program, all of our guests and callers are treated with respect."
In the first hour, Andrea's candid interview with Mailyn Faulkner, an openly gay lead singer for the band "HerRisin,'" and former Carnegie Hall vocalist reveals the complexities of how music gave Faulkner a voice to find acceptance and build confidence surrounding her sexuality.
After meeting Faulkner a second time in Denver, CO while speaking at a conference, Adams-Miller realized that Mailyn Faulkner's positive attitude and general disposition would make a her a fabulous guest for Sex Talk LIVE!
"The moment another speaker joked about having a poster of Cheryl Teigs on his wall as a teenager and Faulkner yelled out, "Me, too!" I realized she would be a lot of fun and a lot of help for our audience who might still be struggling with their own or a loved ones sexuality as she can discuss such a topic with sincerity, warmth, honesty, and humor."
"Mailyn with her beautiful voice and a passion for laughter will share her personal trials and tribulations of coming out as a gay woman and share how song gave her the opportunity to be comfortable with herself as her sexuality blossomed," added Adams-Miller.
Giving contrast to the two programming, Andrea Adams-Miller will interview the author of the new werewolf thriller saga "Hidden Valley: The Awakening." The societal attraction of werewolf themed movies combined with Hidden Valley's laden descriptions of sexual exploits caused Andrea to field the questions her audience would be asking Mr. Woodward about writing such sexually charged scenarios.
The book 'Hidden Valley: The Awakening' is the first of five adapted screenplays about the 'Hidden Valley" Saga Series where the introduction to the occurrences within this small town shows the depths of the mystery of the suspected werewolf killings.
The movie "Hidden Valley: The Awakening" is due out in 2014 and includes an amazing cast and crew including well known names such as:
- Boo Boo Stewart, Actor, formerly known as the character Seth Clearwater in the Twilight Saga Eclipse.
- Malcolm McDowell most known for his villain type characters and for taking controversial roles. His films include "Caligula" and "Clockwork Orange." He is a Golden Globe nominee, National Society of Film Critics nominee, and New York Film Critics Circle nominee.
*John Buechler, Director, most notable for his work in as either director, production, special effects, or makeup artistry for the following films: Halloween 4: The Return of Michael Myers, Friday the 13th Part VII: The New Blood, Nightmare on Elm Street 4: The Dream Master, and more...
The phenomenon of confusion between fear and sexual arousal will be by Adams-Miller and her guest Jon Morgan Woodward in relation to his sexually explicit scenes within the book and the pending movie.
More information about the book 'Hidden Valley: The Awakening' is available at http://www.HiddenValleyTheMovie.com. Additionally, the book is available online at Amazon, Barnes & Nobles, Books-a-Million, and e-books are available for Kindle or get the books straight from the publisher at http://www.TheREDCarpetConnection.com

Athens GA (SPX) Oct 26, 2011
Increasing acidification in coastal waters could compromise the ability of oysters and other marine creatures to form and keep their shells, according to a new study led by University of Georgia researchers.
Their findings will be published in the November 2011 issue of Nature Geoscience. The researchers determined the combined effects of fertilizer runoff carried by the Mississippi River to the northern Gulf of Mexico and excess atmospheric carbon dioxide from burning fossil fuels result in an unexpected increase in the acidity of Gulf waters.
"Before, scientists only worried about low oxygen in waters along the coast," said Wei-Jun Cai, a professor of marine sciences in the UGA Franklin College of Arts and Sciences. "Our paper basically says not only do we need to worry about low oxygen, we also need to worry about acidification."
When plumes of river water rich with nutrients from fertilizer run into coastal waters, phytoplankton thrives. When these algae die, they sink to the sea floor and decompose, releasing carbon dioxide and decreasing the amount of oxygen in the water. The dissolved carbon dioxide reacts with water, forming an acid.
Ocean acidity also increases when excess carbon dioxide released by burning fossil fuels is absorbed from the air at the ocean's surface. The combination of these two sources of carbon dioxide decreases the ocean's ability to neutralize acid, increasing acidity beyond what would be expected from the sum of the individual processes.
As the water becomes more acidic, sea creatures that form carbonate shells or skeletons-from single-celled amoebae to oysters to corals-are less able to produce and maintain these structures. If the acidity of coastal waters continues to increase, Cai and his co-workers predict that by the end of the century these creatures won't be able to form shells.
"Many of our fisheries resources, especially shellfish, are concentrated in areas where rivers discharge onto the coast, like the northern Gulf and the East China Sea, and thus are at risk," said James T. Hollibaugh, UGA Distinguished Research Professor of marine sciences. "And of course there are likely ramifications for fish and animals further up the food chain that depend on these same shellfish for food."
Hollibaugh collaborated with Cai on the project, along with UGA post-doctoral researcher Xinping Hu, graduate students Wei-Jen Huang and Yongchen Wang and doctoral graduate Pingsan Zhao. Additional authors on the paper include Michael C. Murrell and John C. Lehrter of the Environmental Protection Agency Gulf Ecology Division; Steven Lohrenz of University of Massachusetts-Dartmouth; Wen-Chen Chou and Gwo-Ching Gong of the National Taiwan Ocean University; Weidong Zhai, Minhan Dai and Xianghu Guo of Xiamen University; and Kjell Gundersen of the University of Southern Mississippi.
Although their research focused on Gulf of Mexico coastal waters, they extended their findings globally by making the same measurements on the Changjaing (Yangtze) River, the largest river in Asia, where they found similar results.
To minimize future damage to the coastal ocean, Cai and his colleagues recommend that farmers better manage fertilizer use and societies limit fossil fuel use. Their future research will explore seasonal patterns of acidification and its influence on the coastal ecosystem.
Cai's research on the Mississippi River was funded by grants from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, the National Science Foundation and the National Aeronautics and Space Administration. Research on the East China Sea was funded by the National Natural Science Foundation of China, the National Basic Research Program of China and the National Science Council of the Republic of China.

It has long been known that distinctive blue flashes--a type of bioluminescence--that are visible at night in some marine environments are caused by tiny, unicellular plankton known as dinoflagellates. However, a new study has, for the first time, detailed the potential mechanism for this bioluminesence.

By Joshua Freed, AP Airlines Writer
TEMPE, Ariz. US Airways Chief Executive Doug Parker got some of his first details about the jetliner that splashed into the Hudson River the same way most Americans did. On TV.
The airline boss told reporters at the company's headquarters on Tuesday that he was in a meeting with his top finance people when the company's chief lobbyist walked into the room, leaned down, and told Parker that one of their planes was in the river.
Parker hurried out of the room and found a TV. By then, the passengers were safely away from the plane. It was partially submerged and surrounded by boats, Parker said.
"I just assumed there were people inside," he said. That led to a tortured few minutes when he thought that some of the passengers may have perished.
He ran back toward the boardroom and cleared out the finance people. But the TV in the room was mostly used for presentations, rarely for outside broadcasts, and he couldn't get it to work. So he and other staff gathering in the room quickly moved on to getting the company's operations center and some 50 other people on the speakerphone, following the well-rehearsed plans that all airlines have for a crash.
A few minutes later, the operations center reported that it had talked to Capt. Chesley Sullenberger, who said that he had walked through the plane and verified that all 155 people aboard had gotten off safely.
"From then on, it was a lot easier," Parker said.
Ed Bular, a company senior vice president and a pilot, was soon in the boardroom. "You swallow your heart," he said of his thoughts after first learning that the plane was in the river.
Just three hours earlier, he had been involved in an emergency drill at the airline. He recalled that one of the other people guiding the drill at one point had stamped his foot and said, "Pay attention. There's going to be a quiz."
While the executives at the company's headquarters and those at the operations center moved quickly to communicate with each other, there was one person who was momentarily cut off: Sullenberger, the plane's pilot.
As he's trained to, he called the operations center soon after he had verified that everyone was off the plane.
Bular said the operations manager answered the phone. Bular said Sullenberger was told words to the effect of, "I'm sorry captain, I can't talk to you right now. We're real busy. We have an airplane down." Sullenberger persevered and got the manager to take his call.

Sprint is down some 13% not long after the close as the collective wisdom of the markets comes up with this formula: AT&T + T-Mobile = Bad for Sprint Nextel. Sprint shares had been on a decent tear this year as many speculated that a deal could be in the offing. The stock was up a bit less than 20% from the end of 2010 through Friday. But it seems like those bets are being abandoned now. Macquarie analyst Kevin Smithen writes:
Given Sprint's weak balance sheet and the $3 [billion breakup fee for the AT&T/T-Mobile deal], we believe it will be nearly impossible for Sprint to counter. The loss of T-Mobile represents a huge setback for Sprint and we would expect the shares to trade lower in coming days as many special situation investors speculating on a T-Mobile deal unwind their long positions.

Dave Strack, the UA athletic director who ushered Arizona into the Pac-10 Conference and hired the first black basketball coach at a major university, has died. He was 90.
Strack's passing was announced Saturday by the University of Michigan, where Strack played basketball and served as head coach before moving into administration.
UA athletic director Greg Byrne said today that he was "saddened to hear of Dave Strack's passing."
"He was a forward-thinking administrator, who did a lot for the University of Arizona and its athletics department," Byrne said. "We send our condolences to Dave's family and friends."
As Arizona's athletic director from 1972-83, Strack ushered the Wildcats into the Pac-10 Conference from the Western Athletic Conference, moved into McKale Center, build Kindall/Sancet Stadium and expanded Arizona Stadium. Strack hired football coaches Jim Young and Larry Smith, promoted future Hall of Famers Dave Murray (track and field) and Rick LaRose (golf) and brought in two administrators, Kathleen "Rocky" LaRose and John Perrin, who would remain at the UA for decades.
But it was his hiring of Fred Snowden, the first African-American head coach at a major university, that made headlines.
"People wanted me to hire Jerry Tarkanian when we moved into McKale Center," Strack told the Star's Greg Hansen last year. "But I hired Fred Snowden. It wasn't about breaking the color barrier, it was because I believed Fred could rebuild our basketball program faster than Tark could. And he did, too. Ha, ha, ha, ha. …
"He got (Eric) Money and Coniel (Norman), and it was built, almost overnight."
When Snowden left, Strack hired Ben Lindsey away from Grand Canyon. Lindsey lasted just one year before the UA turned to Iowa coach Lute Olson to revive the basketball program. Strack was gone by then, too.
Strack spent his retirement in Tucson. Services are pending.

Very knowledgeable sandwich shop. Friendly too
Food was great, service was good, but my son with celiac got gluten in his meal here. He was sick for the rest of the day and spent the last day of our vacation in the hotel room. I cannot recommend this restaurant since my son got sick here.
A great find! This hole-in-a-wall had wonderful options, from designing your own salad to GF bread, muffins and delicious peanut butter cookies. The two sisters who run the place are very friendly and helpful!
Good salads and a few GF baked goods, but they are generally not dairy free.
Absolutely great lunch spot. They have some pretty interesting and tasty sandwiches and can serve them on gluten free bread or wraps!
Love Love Love Sissy's. Just enough options so you won't get bored. Staff is nice and it can get a little busy but worth the wait. We call ahead and order. Although once we get their we usually add a smoothie or kombucha. so good!! Must try the Hot Bird. yum
We are newly diagnosed celiac, so we feel a bit overwhelmed and disappointed that we can't eat just anywhere. Sissy 's was delicious! Had the turkey avocado panini. Couldn't tell the bread was gf, Rudy's brand which I am not familiar with. It was delicious! Adorable town, and great restaurant!
My server told me I could order anything on the menu and they could make it gluten free! I've had breakfast (at lunch time) with eggs, bacon, homefries and toast; and the Southwestern wrap with eggs, avocado, salsa, cheddar and black beans. All great. The staff is pleasant, helpful and knowledgable. The decaf is great.
Try the GF Hot Bird Panini! Turkey, bacon, avocado, red onion, chipotle mayo with cheddar. Top it off with a peanut butter chocolate chip cookie! Excellent!
All soups are gf! Everything is so fresh and tasty. A favorite lunch/brunch spot!
Knowledgable, gluten-friendly staff. Can make any item gluten free.
Amazing juice bar and bistro with a constantly expanding menu consisting of fresh ingredients and local produce, and serving a wide range of dietary needs "including vegan, vegetarian, gluten-free, organic and good old fashion meat eaters". The staff/owners are super-sweet, to boot.

AIDS Healthcare Center and Pharmacy opens
(Cleveland) - The AIDS Taskforce of Greater Cleveland (ATGC) along with other officials and dignitaries presided over a ribbon cutting ceremony and open house to celebrate the opening of the AHF Healthcare Center & AHF Pharmacy in Cleveland on the campus of the Taskforce.
This event was done in coordination with the upcoming 2014 Gay Games; AHF is a major sponsor of 2014 Gay Games.
At the Open House there was the opportunity to preview artwork that will be displayed throughout the 2014 Gay Games Rainbow Run, the first athletic event of 2014 Gay Games taking place on Saturday August 9th. The 2014 Gay Games Rainbow Run will be stepping off from the Rock Hall at 8:30 am.
Tracy Jones, CEO AIDS Taskforce of Cleveland
Open House & Ribbon Cutting Ceremony was to celebrate the opening of ATGC's new all-in-one AIDS facility in Cleveland that will House an AHF Healthcare Center, AHF Pharmacy, HIV testing and prevention services, food pantry, research division, advocacy action center, and will also serve as the headquarters for the Taskforce.
AIDS Taskforce of Greater Cleveland's new all-in-one facility is located at 2829 Euclid Avenue.
At the event were Tracy Jones, Chief Executive Officer, AIDS Taskforce of Greater Cleveland, and Adam Ouderkirk, Senior Director of Program and Business Development.
According to a report from Harvard Law School's Center for Health Law and Policy Innovation, approximately 10,000 Ohioans are currently living with HIV, and another 8,600 individuals are living with AIDS.
However, these numbers only account for people who are aware of their HIV/AIDS status, and national estimates project 20% of people living with HIV/AIDS have not been tested and are unaware of their status.
The AIDS Taskforce of Greater Cleveland (ATGC) is a community-focused nonprofit HIV/AIDS Service Organization (ASO) that offers a comprehensive continuum of non-medical HIV/AIDS services in Cuyahoga and five surrounding communities.

NFL athletes are often looked at as some variation of a superhero/untouchable because of their millions of dollars, lavish lifestyles and overly public personas. However, they are no different than you or I in so many ways, and Mother Nature was quick to point that out earlier this week as Hurricane Sandy roared through the Northeast causing unthinkable damage. Damage that New York Giants quarterback Eli Manning was unable to escape.
Like so many in New Jersey and New York City, Manning's apartment complex was flooded due to a record-breaking storm surge brought on by Hurricane Sandy. As seen in the picture above, shared by @Jim_ICE on Twitter, Manning was assessing damage and preparing for a power outage (the flashlight is a dead give away).
The good news is that Manning and his family, including wife Abby and daughter Ava, are A-OK. He is expected back at the TIMEX Performance Center on Wednesday as Big Blue returns to practice.

Here's a solution to the energy crisis Americans are sure to love: A company called Geoplasma is building a plant in Florida that will vaporize garbage with a plasma torch, turning 1,500 tons of waste into 60 megawatts of the good stuff. It may not be as clean as solar, but hey, America is the Saudi Arabia of trash.
Scientific American via Engadget:
Every year 130 million tons of America's trash ends up in landfills. Together the dumps emit more of the greenhouse gas methane than any other human-related source. But thanks to plasma technology, one city's rotting rubbish will soon release far less methane—and provide power for 50,000 homes—because of an innovation in plasma technology backed by Atlanta-based Geoplasma.
Engineers have developed an efficient torch for blasting garbage with a stream of superheated gas, known as plasma. When trash is dropped into a chamber and heated to 10,000 degrees Fahrenheit, its organic components—food, fluids, paper—vaporize into a hot, pressurized gas, which turns a turbine to generate electricity. Steam, a by-product, can generate more. Inorganic refuse such as metals condense at the bottom and can be used in roadbeds and heavy construction.

NEW YORK – The board of giant insurer AIG decided Wednesday not to join a private shareholder lawsuit against the U.S. government over the $182 billion rescue of the insurer in 2008.
The lawsuit filed by Starr International, which is controlled by former AIG CEO Maurice "Hank" Greenberg, argued that the massive bailout of AIG did not fairly compensate shareholders. Starr sued the government for about $25 billion in November 2011.
The government took control of American International Group Inc. in September 2008 to prevent its imminent collapse from sparking a cascade of gigantic failures throughout the global financial system. But the rescue wiped out most of the value of AIG's shares.
Starr petitioned the AIG board to join in or take the lead in the suit. AIG laid out its options Wednesday, saying that it could take over and lead the Starr litigation, allow Starr to prosecute the demands on AIG's behalf, or refuse the demand and prevent the Starr litigation, a move that AIG said Starr was likely to contest.
AIG said that if it opted not to join the case and the Starr litigation proved successful, then AIG would "not receive any of the amounts recovered." In the end, AIG concluded that a determination not to join the suit met the company's "fiduciary and legal" obligations to AIG and its shareholders.

A camp stove is believed to be the cause of a Sunday morning fire that injured three people near Seneca Lake.
At approximately 9:45 a.m., the stove reportedly malfunctioned and caught the camper on fire. Firefighters from the Senecaville Volunteer Fire Department and a crew from United Ambulance responded to the call.
A woman in the camper was taken by medical helicopter to Akron General Medical Center while a man was taken by helicopter to the Ohio State University Medical Center. The third victim, a child, was treated and released with minor injuries.

- Stylist:
- Teresa
Sep 26, 2011 - I had been searching for a stylist that I could trust with my seven year old daughter's curls. Luckily, my mother found naturallycurly.com and showed me the reviews that Mademoiselle Salon and Spa had recieved. I called and was able to get an appointment right away. The salon was very nice, and the staff were all very friendly. I requested an appointment with Teresa based on the reviews I had read, and I am very happy! My daughter has type 3C hair and I had been searching for a style that would allow her to wear her hair down and embrace her gorgeous curls but still have enough length to put it in a pony-if needed, and Teresa definitely delivered! Teresa was very knowledgable about the type of care my daughter's hair needs,she also gave me some wonderfully helpful tips to use at home and has emailed me general hair care tips for curly hair. I have already recommended the salon/spa to friends and family and I will definitely be returning to the salon in the future! Thanks soo much! -marianne

Southeast Texas will have representation on U.S. House committees overseeing space, foreign affairs and transportation in the two-year lawmaking term that began this month.
Congressman Randy Weber (R-TX) has re-introduced a bill to hold Central American nations accountable for illegal immigrants from their countries by cutting off foreign aid. The bill (H.R. 439, attached below) is in response to last summer's invasion of illegal immigrants and unaccompanied minors mostly from Honduras, El Salvador and Guatemala.
Rep. Randy Weber (R-Texas) has re-introduced legislation to withhold foreign aid to Central American nations over illegal immigration.
The measure would withhold foreign aid for Mexico, Guatemala, Honduras and El Salvador until Congress establishes they have taken "sufficient action" to limit illegal immigration to the U.S.
President Barack Obama's plan to increase taxes and fees on Wall Street and the nation's wealthiest Americans ran into a solid wall of opposition Tuesday from Texas Republicans at the State of the Union address.

Brooklyn College Riles Pro-Israel Lawmakers
(MintPress) – "This isn't an issue of freedom of speech. This isn't about having a dialogue. This is about the City University of New York, which uses public funds, officially sponsoring speakers who call for the annihilation of the State of Israel; speakers who praise Hamas and Hezbollah," said New York Assemblyman Dov Hikind.
Ten members of the New York State Assembly have lined up in opposition to a proposed panel discussion about the Boycott, Divestment, Sanctions (BDS) movement targeting the Israeli economy as a means of nonviolent economic pressure for Israel's human rights abuses towards Palestinians and expansion of illegal settlements.
The Assembly members co-authored a letter urging Brooklyn College President Karen Gould to cancel the event, threatening to withhold taxpayer funding for the public college.
Gould has not succumed to the threats, vowing not to intercede in the scheduled discussion sponsored by Students for Justice in Palestine and the Brooklyn College Political Science Department.
Founded in 2005, the global BDS movement has inspired groups to shift funds away from companies directly profiting from the Israeli occupation. A major victory for the movement occurred May 2012 when TIAA-CREF, one of the largest retirement funds removed $73 million dollars from Caterpillar, a company producing bulldozers used to demolish Palestinian homes in the West Bank.
Other victories include the boycott of settlement products by The United Methodists and U.S. Presbyterian churches last year— both voted to boycott companies sourcing products from pillaged resources belonging to Palestinians in the West Bank.
"We believe in the principle of academic freedom. However, we also believe in the principle of not supporting schools whose programs we, and our constituents, find to be odious and wrong," the Assembly members wrote.
The wild threats to withhold funding highlights the extent to which pro-Israel supporters will go to censor academic debate while erroneously labeling BDS supporters as "terrorists."
"Extreme radicals, as I said, who basically want the state of Israel to disappear from the face of the earth. And I've got a problem with that. They are sponsoring this event. They are supporting this event. That is the issue. And that is absolutely outrageous," added Hikind.
The event features two speakers: Omar Barghouti, a Palestinian activist and one of the founding members of BDS movement speaking alongside Judith Butler, a world renowned Jewish-American philosopher and supporter of the BDS from the University of California, Berkeley.
Omar Barghouti responded to the allegations during a recent interview on Democracy Now, saying,
"I plan to explain why the BDS movement is not odious. It follows in the steps of the Civil Rights movement in this country and the anti-apartheid movement in South Africa calling for equal rights, calling for an end to the occupation and calling for respect for international law. There is absolutely nothing odious about that."
Although New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg expressed personal opposition to the content of the BDS event, he expressed support for academic freedom and free speech. These fundamental rights allow individuals discuss and debate any topic, including controversial ones.
"If you want to go to a university where the government decides what kind of subjects are fit for discussion, I suggest you apply to a school in North Korea," Mayor Bloomberg said during a news conference at City Hall.
"The last thing we need is for members of our City Council or State Legislature to be micromanaging the kinds of programs that our public universities run and base funding decisions on the political views of professors," he continued. "I can't think of anything that would be more destructive to a university and its students."
