Guocheng Gongcheng Xuebao/The Chinese Journal of Process Engineering | Year: 2011
The process of microwave alkali-activation, water dissolving and HCl leaching to beneflciate Pt and Rh from discarded firebrick of glass fibre industry was studied. Comparison tests of microwave alkali-activation and conventional alkali-activation for discarded firebrick were carried out to investigate the effects of activation temperature, heating preservation time and additive dosage on alkali-activation reaction. The results show that the reaction is completed thoroughly when the test sample is alkali-activated by microwave at 800°C for 30 min, with additive NaOH dosage of 140%. After the clinker is dissolved in water, the residue is leached at the optimum conditions of HCl 3 mol/L, leaching time 5 min and ratio of HCl to residue 15 mL/g. Slurry is filtrated well. The residue generation rate is 2.98%, and Pt and Rh are beneficiated about 33 times.

I love getting mail from my readers. It doesn't matter what you want to say – maybe it's controversial, silly, short, long or even crazy, but it doesn't matter because I want to hear and read all of it. Sometimes even the most mundane communications will strike the match of inspiration.
I got an interesting card from Nancy Laurie of Sedalia the other day.
"Referring to your view of the entertainment for this year at the fair," Laurie wrote. "Boy, the Mo. State Fair must have really busted the budget this year!"
Yeah, there are probably at least a few other people like me who look at a given Grandstand lineup and see a whole lot of events that they would never even consider seeing. But the overabundance of country music makes sense: the marketing materials and official interviews from the Fair and the people who make it happen have made it clear that Sedalia's biggest event is first and foremost an agricultural showcase. And it's safe to assume that many of the people who live the agricultural lifestyle enjoy a good country song.
"Except for Lady Antebellum, like you I've never heard of anybody on the list," Laurie continued, "And tickets for L. Antebellum are beyond my meager budget."
Each year the Grandstand lineup acts as a handy guide to some of the hottest country acts that I've never heard of, but even I had remembered hearing of of Lady Antebellum because their name was reasonably distinct.
Despite the fact that the name seems to refer to just one person it's really a band, but maybe all the members come together and form themselves into one large conglomerate musician like a country Voltron. I can't say for sure that it doesn't happen, because I've never seen them live and hope that I never will.
"Lady Antebellum" sounds like the feisty old madam that runs the local brothel, and it seems like the sort of name that would attract the wrong sort of fans. There's probably a significant number of people who don't fondly reminisce about life in the pre-Civil War south for very good reason.
If you want to see a really GREAT show – catch "Hotel California, a salute to the Eagles" at the Touchstone Stage. I saw them last year – twice – and they were fantastic," beamed Laurie, "They belong on the Pepsi Grandstand."
Yeah, I went to see most of the shows put on by Hotel California at last year's Fair and it's true that they are back. They are worth seeing at least once, though last year their late set was a little better than their early set. They have probably mixed and matched the songs since then, so you should visit both shifts at least once. But seeing The Eagles, or even an Eagles tribute band will never be the same because of the tragic death of one of the most essential members of the band, Glenn Frey.
I guess the running joke/dream of having the Eagles at the fair in my lifetime is over. They might still come some day, but it definitely won't be the same.
I've written a little in the past about what sort of bands should or should not be at the Pepsi Grandstand. I still maintain that a tribute band, no matter how good they are, shouldn't play the big venue. But I would also agree that even Hotel California could probably out preform many of the musicians playing the Grandstand this year.
"P.S. – Sorry – no computer."
Look, I have firmly stated my position as a proponent of better living through technology and better learning through the Internet but that doesn't mean anyone needs to apologize for using any means of communication to send me a response. I want to receive the words you want to send, and I don't care how you send them as long as you're not physically hurting anyone or destroying any property. Send a carrier pigeon! Drop off a tape from a tape recorder, we'll find something to play it. Carve your message into an old piece of wood. Cut out individual letters from a magazine or a newspaper and assemble them into a message. Any way you want it, that's the way I need it!
Mail or hand deliver your message to the offices of The Sedalia Democrat, or contact me on Twitter@SardonicJerk or via e-mail at email@example.com. You can also find me on Facebook. And don't be afraid to stop me on the street if you've got something to say.
And I'd like to send a special thanks to Nancy Laurie for her letter. Keep them coming!
Travis McMullen is a longtime Sedalia resident who shares his views on the city through his weekly Democrat column.

Gostamos muito a agradecemos a oportunidade!
I'm a 23 years old guy, who's traveled some times around some places and this apartment is a really great deal considering what you get and what you pay for! Me and my mom spent about 20 days in this apartment and since the first contact with John (the owner), it was great. He was completely honest during all the arrangements and procedures and nothing went wrong, even considering the fact that we never met until the day of my check-in (all the conversations were via e-mail). We are from Brasil and I shall confess that my mother was a little bit stressed at first with the fact of being in a place that she had never been before, totally different culture (she doesn't speak english), and the building doesn't look like a hotel at all if that's what you're looking for. But if you are searching for a cheap place to really enjoy the local way of living, plus having the comfort of being at your "own place" (this including a complete kitchen, laundry machines, cable TV, etc.) this is the one you're looking for. After we've been living there for a couple of days and my mom got used to everything and notice that her concerns were foolish, everything flew naturally as it should be. If you still have any doubts about it, then you should try sending john an e-mail and I'm sure he'll explain everything in better details for you. Hope you have fun as we did!
We are from Argentina. My two friends and I were in the apartment from Sep 28th to October 9th and we had a wonderful staying in tha apartment. We felt at home!
John welcomed us and showed us the apartment and the neighbourhood giving us great detail about every single item of our interest.
The apartment is very well furnished, comfortable and the people in an around the building are very friendly, respectful.
We felt like three New Yorkers for a couple of weeks and there`s no doubt that when we return to New York City John`s place will be our first option for accomodation!
Julia Parra - Buenos Aires, Argentina
We were three guys from Sweden that stayed in this great appartment . Good owner that showed us around the first night (very appreciative). Close to the subway and very easy to locate.
Calm neighborhood with a good vibe. We stayed there for two weeks without a single incident.
The purpose of our trip was Hockey games, when it came to tickets John took his time and helped us out so we could get a good deal.
Spent the first week here in Harlem.
The apartment is on the 5th floor of a typical Harlem brownstone, in a lovely street. Unlike some of the other reviews, We found it very peaceful and quiet both day and night. I and my wife slept in the front room, and my daughters in the back. We had no disrupted sleep at any time.
We found the apartment a nice place to stay. There are aircon units in all the rooms. However, the unit in the second bedroom was a bit rickety, and tripped the electric a few times. Its probably due a replacement.
Bathroom was fine, with no issues re hot water etc. Nice living area with a big tv and plenty of channels, but we never really watched much tv.
Kitchen was nice, and there is a good selection of cutlery, plates etc. You really shouldnt want for anything.
Strong Wifi available, so should suffice for most people.
I would say though, that the bedroom furniture is very tired, and could do with new bedside tables and lights in both rooms. Relying on ceiling lights is not really that nice.
The apartment is serviced by a lift, and the apartment and building are secure. You need 2 keys to get into the building so its residents only.
The other residents we met were very pleasant, and we had absolutely no issues at all.
John, the owner of the apartment was a really nice guy. We arrived a day late due to a missed connection, but he was accommodating, and when we arrived he gave us a thorough guide to the property, and took us around the local area, pointing out the best restaurants, and food takeaway place. He also showed us the subways, and explained the best ways to get in and out of the city. He also gave us good advice about the area.
We had a problem with some repairs needing done in the bathroom, and John addressed these quickly and with minimum fuss.
With regards to the area.
For Northern Europeans, and particularly a family of caucasian Irish red heads like us :-), We had a small bit of anxiety about staying in Harlem. It is very much an African American and Latino/ Dominican area, but our concerns were soon dispelled.
We came away absolutely loving Harlem and the people there. Do not hesitate, you will really enjoy it here. People were friendly and no-one caused us any problems. Also, everything is on your doorstep, from delis, to fast food places to good restaurants and handy subways.
We arrived from downtown by subway after midnight several times, and no one payed any attention to us.
Hola! Estuve con dos amigas en el apartamento de John del 28 de Agosto al 4 de Septiembre de 2.012.
La fotos son exactamente igual al apartamento!!!!
Tv 50", lavadora, secadora, super nevera, a/a.... Teníamos de todo, utensilios de cocina ... todos!!! grifo de agua descalcificada... y el apartamento estaba super super limpio!!!!!
Tiene ascensor de puerta de hierro, de las que pesan... americano auténtico!
Los vecinos super educados... Coincidió que eran las fiestas de esa calle, 40 aniversario de la calle por lo visto... y nos invitaron a barbacoa los vecinos!!!!!
Nosotras alquilamos dos habitaciones y muy bien. Una es mas grande que la otra y tienen las dos armarios empotrado y cestas tipo Ikea para la ropa.
Jonh encantador. Quedamos con él en la entrada de la calle del apartamento y una vez alojadas nos llevó a dar una vuelta a toda la manzana y ubicar tiendas para comprar comida o lo que quisieramos. Nos enseñó también el metro que está a 5 minutos.
Es la cosa mas barata en relación calidad precio que he visto en mi vida... Y aseguro que si vuelvo a NY, volveré a este apartamento!!!!!
Ahhh y ademas hay una Iglesia Baptista en la calle anterior al metro para ver misa gospel gratis, sin tener que pagar !!!! y el Stadium Yankees a tres paradas de metro!!!!!
Mejor imposible... Se lo he recomendado a todos mis amigos!!!! Genial!!!!!
Gracias John!

Vincetta Victorian Blazer
This styles runs a tad small, therefore we recommend going up 1-2 sizes depending on how you would like it to fit (fitted or semi-fitted).
Sure, we appreciate a strong statement piece, but everyone needs a solid bedrock of high quality staple pieces in their arsenal. Enter New York's Vincetta, a refined women's wear label created by Deanna Ansara that makes basics that aren't so basic. Before launching her own label, the designer studied at the Fashion Institute of Technology and went on to work for high-profile brands like Tory Burch, J.Crew and Ralph Lauren. In 2013 she decided to put all of her energy into her own line and has never looked back. With elegantly draped silhouettes, muted colors and luxurious fabrics, we love Vincetta's refined selection of transitional garments and fresh take on the classics.

Homophones, Homonyms, and Homographs: How to tell the difference
Homophones vs. homonyms vs. homographs
These three terms are confusing and easily mixed up. Not only do they sound similar to each other, they all highlight the similarity of the words they describe: their first syllable "homo," taken from the Greek homós means "one and the same." So how can you tell these words apart? How are they different?
1. Homophones
What is a homophone?
A homophone is one of two or more words that are pronounced the same but differ in meaning, origin, and sometimes spelling. Put simply, homophones are words that sound alike, whether or not they are spelled differently.
Homophone examples
The words " pear" (fruit), " pare" (cut off), and " pair" (two of a kind) are homophones that are different in spelling; " bear" (carry) and " bear" (the animal) are homophones that are spelled alike.
Here are some more examples of homophones:
2. Homographs
What is a homograph?
A homograph is one of two or more words that have the same spelling but differ in origin, meaning, and sometimes pronunciation. Homographs are words that are spelled identically but may or may not share a pronunciation.
Homograph examples
"Spruce" (tree) and "spruce" (neat) are homographs, but so are "row" (line, pronounced rō), and "row" (fight, pronounced rou), as well as "sewer" (conduit for waste, pronounced so̅o̅′ər), and "sewer" (person who sews, pronounced sō′ər).
Here are some more examples of homographs:
wind (an air current or to twist)
spring (the season or to bounce)
3. Homonyms
What is a homonym?
By definition, a homonym is one of two or more words that have the same sound and often the same spelling but differ in meaning. So, homonyms share some characteristics with both homophones and homographs.
Homonyms always sound the same. Sometimes they are spelled the same, but not always.
Homonym examples
Spelled the same: bank (embankment or place where money is kept)
Spelled differently: there, they're, their
Here are some more examples of homonyms:
pet (to stroke or a domesticated animal)
spring (the season or to bounce)
How to remember the difference between homophones, homonyms, and homographs
The terms "homonym," "homophone," and "homograph" designate words that are identical to other words in spelling or pronunciation, or both, while differing from them in meaning and usually in origin.
Homophones always sound alike, so remember the ending "-phone," which is a Greek root meaning "sound."
Homographs are always spelled the same, so remember the ending "-graph," which is a Greek root meaning "writing."
Homonyms are, in the strictest sense, both homophones and homographs, alike in spelling and pronunciation, such as the two meanings of "bear."
The term "homonym," however, is used more frequently than "homophone," a technical term, when referring to words with the same pronunciation without regard to spelling. "Homonym" is also used as a synonym of "homograph." Thus, "homonym" has taken on a broader scope than either of the other two terms and is often the term of choice in a nontechnical context.
Linguist Neil Whitman suggests looking at the three terms as a Venn Diagram: "One circle contains homophones; the other circle contains homographs; and the football in the middle contains homonyms."
Clear? What are your favorite homophones, homographs, and homonyms?

Inspired by my canine companion (Gino), my work focusses on the possible effects of (digital) interactive gameplay on the psychological state of dogs that are home alone. Within this research I aim at exploring various methods to verify an animal's affective state by using both traditional methodologies and biometrics. I believe the use of technology has the potential to enable animals to become more (emotionally) independent of human actions.
Ilyena Hirskyj-DouglasPhD Student at the University of Central Lancashire (U.K.)
I am currently undertaking a PhD in ACI, running the research group Animal Computer Interaction Design (ACID) at UCLan. ACID research has so far researched methods to allow dogs to take a primary role in the technology design to create meaningful playful interactions and sample of a psychology research paper essay topics for hamlet act 1 journalism dissertation holocaust memorial essay contest behavioural economics research paper middle east research papers essay brass band conformity theory essay dissertation topics in international business management created a head tracker to allow dogs opinions to be shown through biometrics. This work is centered on creating media that a dog can interact with, in a similar fashion to humans do with keyboards and remotes, to see what a dog likes to watch, if they can choose to watch and interact with a technology media system. To find out more about my work please view my personal website.
Patricia PonsPhD Student at the Polytechnic University of Valencia (Spain)
My PhD is focused on the development of intelligent playful environments which adapt the game to the interactions, body postures and preferences of the animal who is playing. In this way, animals in shelters or zoos, or even pets left alone at home could play by themselves when no humans are around. We are currently studying cats' behaviors and postures during play, and also the technological artifacts and stimuli they find more interesting. We aim to extend this knowledge to other animal species, such as orangutans and dogs. You can check my personal website here.
Michelle WesterlakenPhD Student at Malmö University (Sweden)
In my PhD in the field of Interaction/Game Design, I am researching how we can use our human capability to design playful artefacts to enrich or improve the life of different animal species. In this, I focus on finding ways to include animals in the design process as co-designers. If you want to know more, visit my personal website.
Anna ZamanskyResearcher at the University of Haifa (Israel)
I am a researcher in Information Systems, interested in all aspects of ACI. I feel technology has a lot to offer to improve animal welfare and establish deeper connections between humans and animals. In our work with Sofya Baskin we use ethological tools for a systematic interpretation of user behavior in interactions of dogs with tablets. For more details on our work, please visit our website.

Do you think I can get this kind of body with BBL? (Photos)
Doctor Answers 6
Thank you for your question.
From your photos, you appear to be an excellent candidate for Vaser Hi definition liposculpture with fat grafting to the buttocks. You should get a great result from liposculpture, giving you a more contoured and hourglass shape with better projection to your buttocks.
Vaser Hi Definition liposuction uses the concepts of negative and positive spaces in relation to the underlying bony and muscle anatomy to define areas such as your six pack and create an athletic looking physique.
The best way to assess and give true advice would be an in-person exam.
Please see a board-certified plastic surgeon that specializes in aesthetic and restorative plastic surgery.

Lipo + BBL candidate, some advices:
Thanks for the question.
In this regard, I recommend you waist and back Liposculpture, getting better curves especially in the waist, improving your body contour.
Finally, I suggested take the fat we get and transfer to the buttocks and hips, to mold them and get better volume, contour and butt projection, is that we know as "Brazilian Butt Lift" (BBL).
Kind regards
Brazilian butt lift expectations
Thank you for your question. When planning a Brazilian butt lift, patients can look forward to a double benefit: reducing areas of unwanted fat while gaining a perkier, rounded posterior. Each procedure must be planned according to the individual needs of patients, harvesting fat from target areas of the torso, thighs or knees and transferring it to create smooth, attractive contours optimized for each person. The amount of fat transferred depends on the quantity available and the extent of buttock augmentation each patient desires. Sufficient body fat for a buttock augmentation is very patient-specific, depending on an individual's body shape and proportions as well as their expectations.

Thank you for your question and photographs.
I would recommend scheduling a consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon so they can perform a physical examination of your body and give you the most accurate answers. When it comes to Brazilian butt lifts and achieving your cosmetic goals, there are several factors that you have to consider; how much fat the patient has to harvest, what areas you can harvest the fat from and how much to safely reinject into the buttocks for optimal fat survival. Sometimes it is a good idea to stage a BBL so you can increase the chance of fat survival because if you reinject too much at once, you have a higher chance of it not all surviving. When I perform a BBL, I will evaluate the patient's body to make sure that they are a good candidate for the Brazilian butt lift. It will also be assessed as to which areas will be liposuctioned. Depending on the amount of fat necessary to fill the buttocks area, multiple donor sites on the body may be considered. After liposuction has been performed, a closed sterile system is used which ensures the fat tissue is never exposed to the air. This keeps it safe and purified for reinjection into the buttocks. Our plastic surgery office uses P188, a triple-wash antibiotic that sterilizes the tissue and separates the healthy fat from any tissue that may not survive the transfer process. I will then reinject the fat to make sure that the layering is done properly, effectively and that the results are smooth and shapely. I hope this helps.
Best of luck in your endeavors!

I can not tell from your one posted photo. It does not look like you have enough fat to harvest to achieve that. An exam in person would be essential.
Learn more: https://www.stevenwallachmd.com/body-procedures/buttock-augmentation/
Hi there! The best thing is to contact a board certified plastic surgeon who has extensive experience in BBL and go in an assessment. Please keep in mind that excess fat may be necessary to give you the result that you desire. Your plastic surgeon will help you determine whether you have enough fat or not. Best of luck!

How to Use Brain Pop
by: Jacob
What is Brain Pop
Brain Pop is a program created to help students learn about a topic that they don't understand.
How do They do it?
They start out with a question sent to them by a fan. Next they do research to learn more about it. They then have the actors run through the script. After recording they use a program called Flash to animate the movie.
Brain Pop was created to help explore
unknown topics. It helps kids, students,
and even adults learn about specific
things. It is a great program that is educational and fun.
Tim and Moby are the
man and robot who
narrate it. that is the
difference between a
lecture and a video.

Bruce Springsteen Album Five Things
November 22, 2011 by staff
Bruce Springsteen Album Five Things, It's confirmed that Bruce Springsteen has mapped out a tour with E Street Band. "Well, things are starting to heat up down on E Street," so their camp stated when announcing its first official dates on the singer's official website. This will be their first trek since member Clarence Clemons passed away last summer.
"The European dates run from the middle of May until end of July and are being announced this week," it's revealed. "Info on the US dates and the World tour dates will coming up shortly." So far, there are four concerts announced, and they are going to take place at Stadium of Light, Etihad Stadium, Isle of Wight Festival, and Hard Rock Calling.
The upcoming tour is to support their upcoming studio album. "We want you to know that the music is almost done (but still untitled), we have almost settled on the release date (but not quite yet), and that we are all incredibly excited about everything that we're planning for 2012. That's all the info we have for right now, but we'll get back to you–real soon," they promised.
Clarence died just a few days after being announced to have suffered a stroke. In wake of his passing, Bruce issued a statement, "Clarence lived a wonderful life. He carried within him a love of people that made them love him. He created a wondrous and extended family. He loved the saxophone, loved our fans and gave everything he had every night he stepped on stage."
In addition to having a stroke, Clemons who was known as The Big Man also had a series of medical problems in the past ten years, including having a surgery to have both his knees replaced and going under the knife to fix a problem with his back. The saxophonist described his last tour as a "pure hell" due to the pain. He passed away at the age of 69.
Jun 21 – Sunderland, England at Stadium of Light
Jun 22 – Manchester, England at Etihad Stadium
Jun 24 – Isle of Wight, England at Isle of Wight Festival
Jul 14 – London, England at Hard Rock Calling

That'll happen when you lose a two-time Big Ten MVP at quarterback, a 1,500-yard rusher, the team's leading receiver and four of the top five offensive linemen.
So how good can the Buckeyes expect to be on offense in year three of the Urban Meyer area? We enlisted BSB's Ryan Ginn, Jeff Svoboda and Marcus Hartman to explore the subject and the personnel to see what could be on tap.
Is J.T. Barrett ready for this new role?
Ryan: He's more ready than he could have been. If Braxton's first shoulder injury had never happened and he went down in the second game like he did last year, I think Ohio State would be in trouble. But that's not what happened, obviously. He's split meaningful reps with the first team since March. Right now, is he as good as the two-time Big Ten Player of the Year? No. But he's a good quarterback who appears to be more mature than most underclassmen (as evidenced by his spot on the leadership council last fall). There will be growing pains, but I don't think he'll be a disaster.
Jeff: All indications are he's as ready as he can be, at least as far as being a redshirt freshman taking over for a three-year starter and two-time Big Ten MVP. A natural leader and a cool customer, Barrett seems to at least have a good approach to the whole thing. But is he ready to be the starting quarterback at a place like Ohio State after having not taken a meaningful snap in two years? I am skeptical until I see him in action, which speaks more to the situation than anything else. It's an incredibly tough spot he's been put into, so if he handles it well, it will say a lot about him.
Marcus: This is an interesting question because while we have heard a lot about Barrett's maturity and leadership skills, a quick rearranging of priorities is bound to upset some rhythms. Sometimes we hear about guys who go about their business the same no matter what while others work harder when they know they are going to be in the spotlight. Which is Barrett? If I had to guess, it's the former, but only time will tell.
Who will be the leading rusher?
Ryan: I'll play it safe and say Ezekiel Elliott. His wrist injury is a concern, but he's the most talented back that Ohio State has and over the course of a full season that usually wins out. I will say, though, that I'd probably take the "over" on whatever yardage a Las Vegas sportsbook would set as the over/under for Rod Smith this season.
Jeff: A year ago, this was either Miller or Carlos Hyde, but now there's a lot of potential candidates. It could be someone like Elliott, who seems to be the odds-on favorite given the fact he'll likely be the starter barring a recurrence of his wrist injury. It could be Curtis Samuel, whose name has been on everyone's lips throughout the preseason. It could even be Barrett -- though he's no Miller, he'll have the ball in his hands quite a bit as compared each individual player among the deep stable at running back. That's not even accounting for Roderick Smith or Brionte Dunn. I want to be a contrarian and pick someone other than Elliott, but I just can't see that happening.
Marcus: The obvious choice is the best here: Ezekiel Elliott. He brings the most to the table, and his status as the backup last season despite being the youngest of the competitors is telling about what the coaching staff thinks of him.
Who will be the leading receiver?
Ryan: If we're talking catches, I think I'll take Dontre Wilson just because I do think Ohio State will utilize some quick passes that allow him to get to the perimeter and do his thing. From a yardage standpoint, though, I'll take Michael Thomas – although I'm very high on Corey Smith. With all the talent at this position, I don't expect the leader in either category to do so by a significant margin.
Jeff: This one is just as tough as the above question because just about anyone can break out here. I will be a contrarian here and go with Jalin Marshall. I just happen to think he's in line for a breakout year and will be someone the staff tries to get the ball to on a regular basis. Ginn makes a good point about Thomas, though, who showed during the spring he has the ability to go up and get the ball on deep passes. I feel bad not including Devin Smith on here but his unfortunate offseason -- which included injury and bad luck -- scares me a bit.
Marcus: Everything is shaping up for Dontre Wilson to be the guy who gets the ball in the most different ways. I look for him to become the guy the QB looks for when in trouble while Devin Smith remains mostly a deep threat.
Who is your choice for a breakout player?
Ryan: The Ohio State offensive line. That's more than one person, but the average offensive lineman gets about 1/5 the attention of a skill player so I'm counting it anyways. I believe Ed Warinner will find a way to get it done. It may not be perfect in September, but I think the offensive line will be hitting on all cylinders by Nov. 8. I don't think it's possible to overstate how important they'll be this year in terms of the need to protect Barrett and open holes for Elliott.
Jeff: OK I gave it away but I really think Marshall, a five-star recruit in the class of 2013, is someone who is primed for a huge season. He just makes plays with the ball in his hand that other people can't make, and I think his skills will be pretty obvious by the middle of the season.
Marcus: If we consider Wilson already fairly well known, Jalin Marshall could be the guy who benefits the most from Miller's absence because it means the coaching staff will redouble it's efforts to find as many ball handlers as possible. He could even be a Wildcat option depending on his things shape up with Barrett's running. Look for him to touch the ball a variety of ways.
Urban Meyer has said the Buckeyes need to find 100 yards of offense to make up for Braxton Miller's injury. Is it there?
Ryan: The potential is there, I suppose. Is it realistic? I doubt it. One thing to keep in mind is that the youngest three classes currently making up the team were all ranked in the top five in the country. From a raw talent standpoint, this is the most talented team that Urban Meyer has had in Columbus. I don't think they can all instantly come in and provide the dependability of Carlos Hyde or Philly Brown in their senior years or Braxton Miller as a junior, but I also don't anticipate this offense falling off a cliff. I think the overall numbers will be worse than last year and worse than they would be with Braxton under center, but they'll find a way to make it work.
Jeff: I just don't see it. Maybe they can make up 50 yards, but 100? Two reasons to have confidence -- as Ginn said, this is the most talented team the Buckeyes have had at the skill positions, and I think the offensive brain trust is pretty sharp. But think of things this way -- there were close to 1,000 football players on scholarship in each of the past two years in the Big Ten, and Braxton Miller was named the best in each of those seasons. So can someone who's never taken a collegiate snap direct an offense at the same level? I can't see it, but I could be proved wrong.
Marcus: There are enough candidates that each new guy could account for only 25 yards and the answer could be yes, but it remains to be seen if that's how it works out. We know this head coach has been more used to spreading the ball around in the past than previous staffs that talked about using multiple weapons but never did. Maybe we'll finally see it.

Part of the military documentary series examining each aspect of the armed forces. This volume looks at the history of the bomber aircraft, developed in the last years of the First World War and then perfected during the vast bombing raids of the Second World War. Early aviators chucked grenades from their open cockpits on the enemy below. Today's strategic bombers can deliver their multi-ton payloads with pinpoint accuracy from miles above the target. BOMBERS is an explosive tour through the history of these mighty airplanes.
From man's earliest battles to the combat visions of the future, the Weapons at War series richly illustrates the history of weaponry throughout the ages - and what weapons will be like in the future. Despite amazing technological advancements appearing on the battlefield, one of today's most powerful weapons has remained virtually unchanged for nearly six centuries. Artillery cannons are still the only guaranteed all-weather, day or night, weapons systems that are immune to interference by electronic means. Trace the evolution of cannons from the smooth bore muzzle loaders of the turn of the century to the precision, computer controlled long range guns of Desert Storm.

Stocks finish down
Stocks fell in light trading Monday during a shortened holiday trading session with lawmakers running out of time to reach a budget deal that would prevent the U.S. from going over the so-called fiscal cliff. The Dow Jones industrial average fell 52 points to 13,139.08. The Standard & Poor's 500 index gave up 3 points to 1,426.66. The Nasdaq composite slipped 8.4 points to 3,012.60.
Nutt buys newspaper
Charles W. Nutt, retired editor and publisher of The Daily Journal in Vineland, has formed a new company and purchased the Free Times newspaper in Columbia, S.C. Nutt and his wife, Deborah Nutt, currently Vineland residents, will be moving to Columbia.
GM truck problem
A welding error by a supplier is to blame for the forced recall of 119,000 Chevrolet Colorado and GMC Canyon trucks from the 2010 through 2012 model years, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration said. The error, discovered by General Motors during the inspection of faulty hoods on several vehicles, caused a secondary latch to be left off the construction of the hood. That is a safety issue and a violation of federal regulations.
FDA botox warning
Federal regulators have warned more than 350 medical practices that Botox they may have received from a Canadian supplier is unapproved and could be counterfeit or unsafe. The Food and Drug Administration said batches of the wrinkle treatment shipped by suppliers owned by pharmacy Canada Drugs have not been approved by the FDA and that the agency cannot assure their effectiveness or their safety.
Oil closes lower
Concerns over the political stalemate in Washington continued to be the focus of energy traders, with the price of U.S. benchmark oil closing down 5 cents to $88.61 a barrel on the New York Mercantile Exchange. The average U.S. price for gasoline rose 1.5 cents over the weekend to $3.247 a gallon. Regular unleaded costs nearly two cents more than a year ago.
Counties sue banks
Three Atlanta-area counties have filed a lawsuit claiming that British bank HSBC cost them hundreds of millions of dollars in extra expenses and damage to their tax bases by aggressively signing minorities to housing loans that were likely to fail. The Georgia counties' failure or success with the relatively novel strategy could help determine whether other local governments try to hold big banks accountable for losses in tax revenue based on what they claim are discriminatory or predatory lending practices. Similar lawsuits resulted in settlements this year worth millions of dollars for communities in Maryland and Tennessee.
Monti's plan
Premier Mario Monti issued a detailed 25-page plan for how to fix Italy's financial woes and bring the country and the rest of Europe back to economic health. "Change Italy, Reform Europe" outlines the steps Italy must take to finish the reforms his 13-month technical government launched to rein in public debt, spur economic growth and bring Europe's No. 3 economy out of recession.

The Halfturret is a special weapon system used by the cyborg Space Pirate, Weavel, as an "alternate form" similar to Samus's Morph Ball. When activated, his robotic body splits at the waist and the lower bo dy transforms into an autoturret armed with a Battlehammer. In this form, Weavel walks on his hands and attacks by turning somersaults, slashing with wrist-mounted blades in doing so. Both Weavel and the Halfturret share half of Weavel's current Energy each, so a good strategy would be to destroy the turret to force Weavel back to his normal form, effectively weakening him in doing so.

Most recently, InterCasino paid $111,820 to a lucky winner of its super-popular Rags-to-Riches jackpot. The lucky player this week goes by the nickname "Stash". But Stash may not be the most appropriate name for this lucky lady, because in her phone interview with InterCasino's congratulatory team, Stash mentioned more about spending than about stashing. 'It's still hard to understand the magnitude of winning $111,000 -- I'm in shock nearly two days later. I don't have any concrete plans, except to treat myself!' said the enthusiastic winner.
Rags-to-Riches really does seem to hit the big jackpots more than most other casino slots. In fact, just five days before Stash's lucky win, a player nicknamed BOBO won an amazing $414,000 on the same slot machine. That big win made BOBO the biggest-ever online jackpot winner, and one satisfied player.
But the real beguilement to this story is why InterCasino seems to fall in love with their big winners. As soon as somebody wins a life-changing amount of money from these guys, InterCasino sings the news from the rooftops, virtually telling the world just how easy it is to take money off their casino.
We interviewed Ryan Hartley, the casino manager at InterCasino, and he seemed tickled pink that Stash won just a few days after Rags to Riches paid the net's largest ever jackpot. 'InterCasino is pleased to again award one of the largest online progressive jackpots in the world' grins Ryan Hartley 'We pay out thousands of dollars in prizes daily, and each time a super jackpot like this is won, it shows the online gaming community that InterCasino is the best bet for big prizes, fair odds, quick payouts, and of course, secure gaming.'
But of course, since InterCasino is so happy to give, their players are only too happy to receive.

We've got several new commitments for you all, each coming in from private schools right here in Maryland, including a huge surprise commitment this afternoon from a Top 25 Young Gun.
Conor Pequigney, M, Archbishop Spalding (Md.) has committed to Syracuse. An athletic two-way midfielder who flourishes on faceoffs, Pequigney is a standout for the Baltimore Crabs Lacrosse club in the summer. He attended Jake Reed's Blue Chip camp and earned Inside Lacrosse Man of the Session on Sunday after registering a hat trick in a game and proving himself at the faceoff X. Saw respectable varsity minutes since he was a freshman. Pequigney also considered Penn State and Towson, among others.
IL No. 17 Young Gun rising junior Matt Opsahl, A, Landon (Md.) has verbally committed to Hobart. A very crafty left-handed dodger that finishes strong on the crease, Opsahl chose the Statesmen over Syracuse, Denver and Delaware. The 5-10, 180-pound attackman put up 24 goals and 11 assists for the IAC champion Bears last spring. Also had a dominant summer paving the way for the Crabs, attending Blue Chip as well. This has got to be one of Hobart's more high profile profile recruits in their existence and Opsahl will try and help turn them around, as they stand 29-41 in the past five years.
Evan Connell, D, Calvert Hall (Md.) has committed to the University of North Carolina. The junior stood out on the Cardinals' starting D last season, while also enjoying a successful summer individually. Attended Blue Chip where he demonstrated a very impressive takeaway ability and stick skills. Plays with Greene Turtle in the summer. Connell also considered Princeton, Ohio State and Delaware. He'll join classmate Patrick Kelly, a lefty attackman, in Chapel Hill in 2012.
Chris Hampton, M, Georgetown Prep (Md.) has committed to Denver. A Blue Chip attendee this past summer, Hampton has great athleticism and is a bull of a midfielder who will see increased time this coming season for the Little Hoyas. Also a talented linebacker in football from what I've heard. We'll have more from him late next week.
Carter Brown, A, Calvert Hall (Md.) has committed to Ohio State. The junior amassed 9 goals, 3 assists for the Cardinals this spring, including a clutch game-winning goal in an upset win over MIAA champion St. Paul's. A nifty dodger that will be a key component of Calvert Hall's loaded squad over his final two seasons.

For a class here i need to be able to multicast maps from around 10gb in my network to 20-25 users at once.
If I just use a shared file where they have to copy it, the network runs to slow. Anybody any ideas or suggestions?

That's a huge amount of data to push out in real time.
Time to think about other methods, do the users all need to work in/on the map or just view it?
If they are only needing to view it a presentation method might be useful.
If they need to work on it that's quite another story.
Apr 1, 2010 at 2:32 UTC
Thanks for answering. They have to work in the map. I'll give you the situation so you can understand.
My classrooms are being used by an evening school for adults (it provides a decent income for our school). One class is networking and they use VM Ware to teach this. But the teacher wants to be able to give his students at the beginning of the class the VMs he wants them to have without having to wait an hour until everybody has copied the needed files.
I hope you understand what I mean. :)
Apr 1, 2010 at 7:37 UTC

OK, if they are using VMware VMs them that's probably the answer. How are the vms running? All from the same server? If you can find a way to have this file stored in the same system or drive array the VMs are running from the access to the file could be hundreds of times quicker.
Do you control the entire environment?
How is VMware configured? Server and drives, NAS or SAN?
Do you see where I'm heading with this?
If the 10gb file/s are available on a local drive it should be possible to virtualise a copy to each VM or create a shared image of the file to access in minutes.
It all depends on how the VM environment is configured and what storage resources there are attached to the VMware server.
This is a huge amount to run on VMs how well do they run with the 10gb file loaded?
Apr 1, 2010 at 7:55 UTC
I'm in full control of the environment (i'm the only admin in my school).
The current situation is that a teacher of the evening school just copies the VMs to every workstation before a lesson. This is not in my school by the way. Starting september they will also use my school and they asked me to provide of a better way to deploy the VMs to the workstation. So the VMs are being run local on every computer.
So at the moment there is no VM server available or any NAS or SAN, but I got a small budget to spend so it can cost some money (but i don't have to tell you in a schoon environment there's isn't as much money as in a private company).
Do you got any idea of the costs this will have?
Thanks again for answering!

Well that is not exactly as I imagined it to be, and a lot harder to find a quick and easy way to distribute the VMs to the PCs.
The first idea is not hugely quicker but does not rely on network transport of the files and that is to use a few or even if needs be 25 USB flas drives, if the PCs are resonably new (USB2) it would only take a few minutes ueach to transfere the files and the cost for one ~A$25 or for 25 of them ~A$625 and most vendors would do a pretty good deal for 25 of them. Even if you use 5 flash drives and do the PCs 5 at a time, it would take in theory only 15 munites to do all 25 PCs and cost ~A$125.
That's the idea that seems easiest, cheapest and quickest and of course Adult students are less likely to steal them. If you got a vendor to do a really good deal it would seem like even a better idea. Of course I don't know how much these USB2 flash drives cost in Belgium, maybe they are cheaper than here already.
What do you think of that idea?
Apr 2, 2010 at 1:11 UTC
It's not a bad idea. But the teacher who makes these VMs would have to copy the VMs to all flash drives. I wouldn't mind that solution, but knowing him he wouldn't :)
Apr 2, 2010 at 3:52 UTC
Lawrie Dalman Consulting is an IT service provider.
OK, that makes it a bit harder, most of the best solutions involves using VMware infrastructure you don't have and quite expensive to implement. This will take some serious consideration and I'll have to think about it a bit, I thought the last idea was the cheapest and easiest, I'll see it I can come up with an easier plan.
No matter what the method this class will likely need at least some preparation. I can't see how the reduction of the process from an hour to 15 minutes or so could not be doable. The whole idea of a VMware server with the maps already in situ would not require the same prep time, but that is out of the question.
Leave it with me for a little while and we'll see if I get a better idea.
Apr 2, 2010 at 4:30 UTC
Is a VMware server that expensive? Because the teacher who is responsable for those classes is a big VM fan and they have a bigger budget then we do. So for the perfect solution they are willing to pay. Just depends on how much it is.
Anyhow I thank you very much for answering some of my questions!
Apr 2, 2010 at 7:57 UTC

So then, a VMware server based VM solution. ESXi or XenServer on a server, doesn't really need to be an enterprise level server since you don't really need high availability or huge redundancy, It has to be good enough to run the 25 VMs and the map software.
There has been no discussion on the subject, but I'll assume for the moment it is XP that the clients are running and that as a school you don't have Windows licensing issues. If the mapping software happens to be linux OS based then it just gets a little easier and cheaper.
Server spec. is the next interesting thing, The choice is probably between ESXi and XenServer so you will probably have more sucess with the VMware solution since there is already a VMware disposition being stated. I mention XenServer as it is free for many purposes.
The server would need enough CPU and RAM to run the 25 VMs and map software comfortably or the performance will make the solution unsuitable for teaching.
Quantifying a server hardware config gets a bit tougher. http:/
It's too late now for me to work it out, maybe I'll follow it up tomorrow.
This discussion has been inactive for over a year.

Russian s-300 covered the sky of Syria from American cruise missiles
The intrigue, the sudden appearance in Syria, additional Russian anti-aircraft missile complexes were resolved. As officially stated by the Russian foreign Ministry, this is done to prevent the attacks of us cruise missiles at Syrian airfields. The political significance of this gesture is really great. However, as far as s-300 and s-400 would be effective from a purely military point of view?
Russia took a decision to deploy s-300 in Syria after leaks of information about US intentions to bomb cruise missiles Syrian airfields, said the Russian foreign Ministry.
"We are not talking about making radical way to make our base in Syria invulnerable, and to prevent accidents, to reduce the likelihood of provocations"
"First, the s-400 there a long time, and somehow it all attitude is normal, nobody said it show. The C-300 there after went down the drain from close to the US establishment experts, who had probably groundless, that can bomb cruise missiles Syrian airfields," – said the official representative of the foreign Ministry Maria Zakharova in an interview with TV channel "Rain", reports TASS.
"Given that there is our technique, there is performed the operation of VCS, no one knows where the rocket will fly, she said. – It was perfect for a complex With-300".
On Thursday, the official representative of Russian defense Ministry major General Igor Konashenkov recalled "American "strategists" that the air cover of the Russian military bases in Hamima and Tartus is anti-aircraft missile systems s-400 and s-300, the radius of which may be surprising for any unidentified flying objects"
He noted that Russian air defense system able to provide security bases in Syria. Hopes that the aircraft"invisible" to evade the action of s-300, Konashenkov called "illusions Amateurs."
Thus, the political significance of the Russian anti-aircraft missile systems in Syria is obvious, but what is the direct military significance of this event? Especially if we assume that the s-300 and s-400 would not work on a group of cruise missiles, and to reflect the full missile and bomb strikes on the part of large air groups?
"I do not think that the perceived enemy has kamikaze"
Deputy air force commander at the joint air defense system of the CIS countries the General-Lieutenant Aitech Bizhev noted that in the first place the efficiency of the SAM depends on the available supply of missiles.
"Usually a regular supply of missiles from s-300 and s-400 is three of ammunition. That is a lot, considering the highest probability of destruction of targets with the first hit. From the experience of local wars it is known that when a massive air strike destruction of 20% of enemy aircraft in the first strike stops any fighting. I don't think that in aviation, our perceived enemy has a squadron of bombers," – said the expert newspaper VIEW.
In order to suppress the Russian air defense system in Syria, according to Bijeva, you need to conduct a range of activities, given a standing radar field, through which no aircraft can not appear to remove unnoticed.
"Seen any object located at a distance of 600-700 km from the airport. If you experience any of the aircraft in this field of anti-aircraft missile battalions are in readiness number one, it's not just SAM, but also guarding their missile and gun complexes "Carapace", – said the General-the Lieutenant Bijev. According to the interlocutor, unidentified targets flying in the direction of the airfield Hamim will be destroyed when you log on to the affected area.
"For each goal according to standards provided by two missiles, but one is usually enough – emphasizes Bijev. – Our air defense system capable of destroying any air target moving at any speed, in spite of all opposition and interference. The affected area of our defense is about 400 km."
In addition, Bijev recalls that posted in Syria the s-300 BM2 is designed just to destroy cruise missiles. "Usually, as we know, the aircraft of the alleged enemy prefers to carry out a massive launch of missiles, without entering the zone of defense in order to organize the corridors of stairs, breaking through the gap in air defense. Here to counter such an attack and designed s-300 BM2", – said the expert, fully confirmed, so the words of the representative of the Russian foreign Ministry.
In addition, according to Bijeva, our aircraft also will stand at the airport and wait, it will rise into the air and disperse to repel plaque. Our experts helped to recover the Syrian air defense system, and they will also take part in repelling the blow. "I don't envy those who turn up there", concluded Lieutenant General.
"The main problem is the amount of ammunition"
"The task of destruction of the base can be solved by air major power. In Syria, there are three forces: Turkey, Israel, US"
In turn, the expert of the Center for analysis of strategies and technologies Sergei Deniance urged not to build illusions about the presence in Syria of s-300 and s-400. According to him, any air defense system disabling: the ammunition is over, and the radar can be suppressed.
"The main problem is the amount of ammunition. To bring complexes out of action, it is necessary to conduct a full operation, it will not be blamed on inadvertently flown into the area hitting them with the plane. These systems are provided to avoid such accidents. A large-scale offensive operation cannot be attributed to coincidence," said Denisenco the newspaper VIEW.
Hypothetically, he said, to destroy the Russian air defense systems in Syria will require no less than a squadron of aircraft and more than 10 rockets intended for destruction of air defense systems. "In any case, we are talking about major surgery," he said.
The expert explained that the presence of Russian air defense allows you to control the air space. Previously, Russia has repeatedly been accused of air strikes on civilian targets. Now you can provide data that can prove the innocence of Russia to a particular incident.
"We are not talking about making radical way to make our base in Syria invincible. Talking about how to prevent accidents, to reduce the likelihood of provocations. A hypothetical problem of a potential enemy (the destruction of the Russian base) can be solved air operation of any big powers. In Syria, there are three forces: Turkey, Israel, United States," concluded Deniance.
There is no reason for either panic or complacency
Denicotea colleague at the Center for analysis of strategies and technologies, Maxim Shapovalenko said that the potential placed in Syria of the complexes depends on many factors, starting with the quantity of installations and ammunition to them, as well as modifications of the missiles. The same C-400 can use at least three modifications.
"Battery with a squadron of fix… But we don't know what there will be outfit of forces and means. Even a single aircraft carrier in the Mediterranean is not yet visible. That's when they bring out the carrier, then we can think of. But nobody can tell you what we have there missiles – long-range or ultra-long action," said Shapovalenko the newspaper VIEW. He stressed that in terms of air defense, Russia has always been traditionally strong.
"In terms of defense I have no doubt. Even a primitive system s-75 in the Vietnam war and cope with a much larger number of aircraft," – said the source. In Syria and "Buki" is, and this is a very serious system, the expert added.
"We don't really know what powers the coalition headed by the United States is able to expose – said Shapovalenko. Who signs up to participate in these hypothetical air strikes and subscribe? Reason to panic is not, but for the jump too. Balancing on the brink of war. The situation is similar to the one that was in the 83rd year when we also had a very serious escalation… If the Americans dare repeat the Vietnam, get Vietnam. In Vietnam, where they used primitive defense systems, they suffered very serious losses".
