New NSF I-Corps Teams Begin Work
Second round of public-private innovation awards granted to 25 teams around the country
As part of a continuing effort to identify emerging technology concepts that have potential to transition into economically viable products, the National Science Foundation (NSF) has selected 25 teams for the spring 2012 class of the NSF Innovation Corps (I-Corps).Spanning a broad range of potential products, research areas and regions, the teams will receive guidance from private- and public-sector experts, participate in a specially designed training curriculum, and receive $50,000 grants to begin assessing the commercial readiness of their technology concepts.
"Earlier I-Corps teams are well on their way to commercializing their technologies," said I-Corps program officer Errol Arkilic. "A number are already building their teams and new partnerships, and they are obtaining license agreements and negotiating third-party financing."
The awards will draw on discoveries previously supported by five NSF directorates: Biological Sciences; Computer and Information Science and Engineering; Engineering; Mathematical and Physical Sciences; and Social, Behavioral and Economic Sciences.
These awardees will begin the in-depth NSF I-Corps curriculum on March 20, 2012, with a workshop at Stanford University.
This year, the I-Corps program will select approximately 100 teams to assess the commercial viability of their proposed innovations, all built upon a foundation of NSF-supported basic research. The program has begun accepting inquiries for the round of awards to begin in July 2012.
For more on the Innovation Corps, see the NSF Special Report outlining the program.

Mrs G and I have decided to try and eat a few more healthy meals a week and to kick it off we tried the recipe for Grilled Salmon with Smoky Tomato Salsa from Cooking Light. This recipe was clipped way back in Sept 2009 and has been sitting in my to-do binder. Bout time I got to it, huh?
Started out by grilling the vegetables at 400F direct
When those were done, the salmon went on for 4 minutes per side
I let the salmon rest and chopped up the veggies for the salsa.
For a recipe that only had 336g cal, 18.6g fat and 34.7g protein, this one packed in a ton of flavor. The sweetness of the grilled red onion, the acidity from the lime and the heat from the jalapenos as well as the apple wood paired really well with the salmon, complimenting it,but not over powering it. Regardless of whether you are looking for lighter meals, this is one recipe I would recommend.

i try to wrote business content but my content was unlike by team lead so i really need your suggestion or guideline about writing a business content. Hope understand what i am trying to say ?
Sorry, but your question is too generic. What type of business content were you trying to write? Who is your audience (location, age group, gender, etc.)? Were you writing about products or services? Was it a press release, web page, or another type of content?
What I don't understand is that if your team leader didn't like your content, why didn't you discuss your problem with your team leader? You can't write for a client or an employer if you don't know what it is they expect you to deliver.
One of the best ways to write content for a business is by first seeing what your competitors are doing. Don't steal their words or ideas exactly but this can help you gain a better understanding of what customers are looking for and how to write your own content.
Don't use big words that no one will know what you are talking about. Visit other sites that are similar to yours and search for their key words, and apply them to your articles. Business articles should not be long pages, but rather short and to the point. It is completely different writing style from writing a book. Keep your sentences short and divide your content up into short paragraphs. If you need to provide statistics, and other relevant information. Good luck.
Worrying about keywords from the start is a bad idea.
Always right content for your customers, then the keywords and everything else will follow...
Writing a business content always differs from Products to Services. If you know your Target Audience (i.e. TA) then it will be easy for you to write quickly & efficiently. If you are to worried that how should I go about, & etc. then Simply think your Heading, what you want to convey to your TA & then you'll see that you already have many content in front of you.
I think, the best possible way to spread your message online is to develop web content. What I believe is that you should target your prospects and create content to make them learn about your business. I made by clients as well as company staff aware of my business, and values by opting for e learning content development service. It helps people learn about any topic effectively, and fast.
The first thing you should make sure your theme, then based on the theme of writing
Writing business content is no different then any other type, just write your own content don't copy paste it from others, i would recommend that you look what your competitors are up to but don't steal their content. Also don't write all the content at once, keep updating content time to time that will increase your visibility and will result in good traffic
As someone who writes business content for a living, I have to disagree. Writing business content, technical writing, and writing articles are as far apart from each other as they are from writing fiction or poetry. To write good business content, rather than beginning to research your topic on the web, you first need to become well grounded in your knowledge of the business and its goals and objectives. Then, whether writing for a service oriented or product oriented business, you need to know a little bit about sales.
Another difference between writing for a business and either tech writing or article writing is the length. You don't have a lot of room to tell your story becuase the reader doesn't want to spend hours... even minutes reading it. You have to be quick, concise, and balance that with informative and engaging. You make the best use of the inverted pyramid: telling your reader what's important at the top so they know they are in the right place.
Good business content is also spattered with calls to action that can range from "Contact Us!", "buy now", to clicking a link to more detailed information, to enlarge a graphic, or (these days) to watch a video.
The one thing you do have right is that you should check the competition -- not that you can use any of their info, because it may not be pertinent to your client's business, -- but just to make sure you aren't reinventing the wheel with your business content. It's great if you can update business content, but that's not always possible to do frequently. For instance, an accountant or attorney my have little news from month to month or even year to year. That's where it's important to keep the site design fresh and keep up with new trends in technology to keep the site current.
Hi,I agreed with this point. Analyze the business content of your competitors and the sites which are ranking high in the same business for which you are writing the content. This will help you make a view of visitor's requirements and content loved by Search engine crawler. After that, you can make changes and improve the quality of the content. Then, discuss about your analysis and reason behind the quality of the content with the team.
When you are writing content for your business, you need to keep many things in mind and you know that quality content is the main thing on website. When you start writing business content you should keep following steps in mind, so that you can write effective business content. Here are steps:-
If you are not able to write quality content, you can hire professional content writer or content writing company for your business.
For the very formal business content, I always outsource from expensive but worth it writing agencies.
I have no proper information about it but Based on my experience, Business content is looking like service of your business, affordable services and many more....Nice question...
The biggest thing in my opinion is it has to carry the character of your company, grammatically correct, and on point. Then again, that's just what I would like to read.
I found that a good resource for writing effective business content is the book Clout: The Art and Science of Influential Web Content by Colleen Jones. I've read it this week and it has made me rethink the effectiveness of a lot of the content on my current website; I'm currently working on a big content re-imagining. She covers the psychology that goes into creating persuasive rhetoric to motivate customers to action.

Hey there, time traveller!
This article was published 20/2/2013 (1644 days ago), so information in it may no longer be current.
There's already a winner before the puck goes down this morning to start the inaugural Female World Sport School Challenge at the MTS Iceplex.
Eight prep-school teams from across the country, from East, Central and West, will contest Hockey Canada's first event of its kind, but the game is way ahead no matter who gets the gold.
"When you have these development opportunities, you're just going to continue to see the level of play increase," said Jennifer Botterill, the much-decorated Winnipegger who's the official tournament ambassador this weekend. "It's very much a contagious effect.
"From my experience, just look at how much better the level of play on the national team got every year. Compared to when I made the team in 1998, the level of play, the skill and the speed and the consistency and the depth, all were vastly improved by the time the 2010 Olympics came around. It's just a reflection of the grassroots."
The grassroots of female hockey has broadened the base, and up the line it goes, Botterill said.
"Over the course of five or 10 years, well, I've done a lot of programs and been in some development roles to see first-hand the number of girls who are playing, and it starts at the grassroots," she said. "Girls who are six or seven or eight, they have a choice of which girls teams they want to play on. That wasn't the case 10 or 15 years ago. And it then just trickles up."
This tournament will attract eyes from all around the game, and that means scouts, especially from post-secondary programs in Canada and the United States.
"You see it with the expanding sports-school options for girls, at the university level," said Botterill, a five-time world champion and three-time Olympic gold medallist for Canada. "The NCAA is always adding more programs and the levels are getting more competitive.
"Every team doesn't just have one or two players who are good now, it's three or four lines.
"This tournament, it's a great representation as far as how the game is growing. It shows there are lots of opportunities for girls who are playing this game. To have this option for girls who are playing in high school and to see the success rate, how many of them have competed at the provincial level or national level, this is a pretty rich history for those who have played at the high school, sports-school level."
Botterill, now 33 and officially retired as a player, continues to influence the game via roles with programs such as RBC's Play Hockey, Hockey Canada events like this and even the IIHF.
She'll be the guest of honour for tonight's official opening ceremony at the Iceplex (7 p.m. prior to the St. Mary's-Okanagan game) and the keynote speaker at Friday's tournament banquet. The tournament runs through Sunday.
When you see her smiling around the tournament, and you undoubtedly will, it will be in part because this, in many respects, is some of her handiwork, the foundation she has helped set with her playing career and her advocacy for the game of hockey.
"Well, it's certainly an honour to be involved," she said Wednesday. "Me, I think of all the people who paved the way for us during my career, people like Danielle Goyette, Stacy Wilson, Susie Yuen. These are people who really put in time before the game really exploded, got the awareness going. When I look back, I feel really grateful for the opportunities that I had.
"It all just makes me excited to see how good these players are and how excited they are to be involved and the choices they have for their future."

Sucks that all that diesel spilled out...wonder if anyone out in the lineup nearby noticed anything
Man... seeing that pic of the boat upside down is disturbing to me.... creeps me out. I don't know why, but seeing boats washed up on dry land after hurricanes or floods... or seeing them belly up on rocks... makes the hairs stand up on the back of my neck. It's just so... unnatural.

>Cross Training>Starting Situps
I've got a pot belly (not due to overeating or too much drinking
Is there anything else I could be doing to lose some of that centralised fat?
When it's all said and done, will you have said more than you've done?
I ran a mile and I liked it, liked it, liked it. firstname.lastname@example.com
2010 Races: Snicker's Marathon(2:58:38), Scenic City Trail Marathon(3:26:36), Laurel Highlands Ultra 77(19:13:44), Ironman Louisville(13:07:07) 2011 Races: Mount Cheaha 50k 5:22:47, Tobacco Road Marathon, Mohican 100 Miler
I've got a pot belly (not due to overeating or too much drinking, it's been there all my life!) and I'm finally trying to get rid of it. I don't know my weight, but the last time I went to the doc's I was normal and healthy, so my eating habits seem to be fine.
In order to get rid of my belly, I've started running a little: 3k over 20 mins, a little portion uphill, four days a week. Nothing amazing, but I am just starting out :P I'm hoping that'll reduce my fat a little.
But what about situps? I know they won't reduce the fat on my tummy, but they'll help to complement the running and add some shape there, I'm hoping.
So for a beginner, what should my weekly situp regimen be? Is there anything else I could be doing to lose some of that centralised fat?
P.S. And the irony is, the rest of my body is stick thin :P
CPT Curmudgeon
google on 'situps' and 'back pain'. you might want to choose a different exercise.
Let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us. (Heb. 12:1b) Mile by Mile
running yogi
Good stuff for abs.
I recommend that you start by adding 4 or 5 minutes of abs and back work daily to your running routine. Doesn't sound like much but if you do it right, it will be plenty.
Something like:
30 seconds crunches - Rest 15 seconds
30 seconds butterly kicks - Rest 15 seconds
30 second front plank - Rest 15 seconds
30 second side plan - Rest 15 seconds (repeat for both sides)
1 minute back extensions on a ball
As you get stronger, increase to 45 seconds of effort on each activity and gradually increase your running to 4 or 5 days per week and at least 30 minutes per session.

Cockayne - Grants for the Arts
Cockayne is a private foundation based in San Francisco and one of the successor foundations of Columbia Foundation, a ground-breaking philanthropic foundation founded along enlightened principles in 1940 by Madeleine Haas Russell, mother of the current President of Cockayne and her brother, William Haas. True to Madeleine Haas Russell's belief that young people can best discern the priorities of their time, in 2013 Columbia Foundation's assets were divided between three successor family foundations designed to involve the next generations in giving. Cockayne is committed to carrying forward Columbia Foundation's commitment to make a difference for the good with special focus on how this is achievable in the arts.
Cockayne – Grants for the Arts is a donor-advised fund of The London Community Foundation.

Comic Relief Local Communities Programme
There are still many communities in the UK that suffer from economic and social deprivation and the current economic climate may make this situation worse. For this reason, Comic Relief has decided that £4.5 million should be available to fund projects across the UK which are addressing these issues through a third phase of the 'Local Communities' programme. Comic Relief is pleased to be working with the UK Community Foundations (UKCF) and Community Foundations across the UK, to deliver this Local Communities Programme.
The London Community Foundation is one of the delivery partners and will be delivering the programme across 29 London boroughs. We cannot accept applications from the following Boroughs: City of London, Hackney, Newham and Tower Hamlets.
The Local Communities Programme will run for 18 months and during this time, grants of between £1,000 and £10,000 will be available.
The programme aims to empower local people, enabling them to create lasting change in their communities. Projects should be run by people directly affected by the issues they are dealing with and priority will be given to small, locally based groups and organisations in areas of disadvantage that have a clear understanding of the needs of their community.
Under the programme, organisations can apply for funding to:
- Improve people's life skills, education, employability and enterprise
- Maximise people's ability to strengthen community cohesion and build social capacity
- Promote reduction of isolation and disadvantage and access to services
- Advance people's physical and mental health, wellbeing and safety
There will be a different theme under which you can apply in each round.
Organisations which have received a Community Cash grant or any other grant from a Community Foundation can apply for a Local Communities grant. However, organisations which hold a grant directly from Comic Relief cannot apply for a Local Communities grant.
A Local Communities grant must be at least 30% of the total cost of the project.
Please ensure that your project activity begins no earlier than the 10 weeks after the grant deadline; you will then have 12 months to spend your grant, if you are awarded.
Living Wage
Comic Relief became a Living Wage Friendly Funder back in June 2015 and we are working with them to run a special pilot through this round of the Local Communities initiative. Comic Relief has signed up to the scheme in recognition and support of the commitment and hard work that workers in our sector undertake. The hope is that eventually all funders will sign up to the scheme and together we can work towards ending low pay in the community and voluntary sector in the UK.
As you know The London Community Foundations and UK Community Foundations manage the Local Communities initiative on behalf of Comic Relief and for this round we will be piloting the Living Wage Friendly Funder scheme. See the Fund Guidelines for more details.

Drug & Alcohol Relief Fund
About the Fund
We are delighted to offer this one-off programme for 2017-18, thanks to a generous donation from the Drug and Alcohol Service for London (DASL) following its closure. For 35 years, DASL's core work focused on providing community services to meet the health and social needs of local people, valuing the capacities that individuals and communities have to be able to develop resilience and find solutions to challenges. The Drug & Alcohol Relief Fund will enable DASL's work to continue and we encourage applications from small organisations which are firmly rooted in their local communities.
The Fund is available across London for work which supports people affected by drug and alcohol addiction, and their families. We know that there are a number of factors which lead to an individual developing an addiction and that this can have a negative impact on every area of their life. This fund will therefore support all work which will help a person to achieve and sustain recovery, as well as preventative work to help individuals identify risky behaviour that might lead to a later addiction. The fund will also help families to cope with the stress of addiction and to support their family member's recovery process.
Fund Themes
Applications must address at least one of the following Themes:
- The prevention of alcohol problems, substance misuse and related diseases – in particular but not exclusively, through support with finances, employment, relationships, health and housing.
- The provision of support services for people with substance misuse problems and their families – such as therapy, information, advice and guidance (IAG) and if necessary, treatment.
- Social inclusion – helping people with drug and alcohol problems to feel part of their community and preventing people from becoming socially excluded. This can include support for individuals, families and communities affected by drug or alcohol addiction.
Grant size £2,500-£10,000 for projects of up to one year
Income threshold Priority will be given to organisations with an annual income of less than £1m
Deadline for applications 5pm on Friday 22nd September 2017

Evening Standard Dispossessed Fund - Food for London
About the Fund
The Evening Standard Dispossessed Fund was set up in 2010 to help grassroots charities tackling poverty, inequality and exclusion across the capital. The Fund is a restricted fund of The London Community Foundation. Each year, the Evening Standard Dispossessed Fund focuses on a particular theme, which has previously included supporting young people out of gang activity, using football coaching as an agent for social change and funding communities and neighbourhoods through the Estates programme.
In 2016/17 the Fund will shine a light on the disconnect between the high levels of food poverty that exist in London and the tonnes of surplus food that is thrown away, sent to anaerobic digestion or is fed to animals. Food for London will provide support to groups and charities who are using creative ways to repurpose surplus food or provide solutions to address hunger and food waste in London.
The Aim of the Fund
The aim is to turn edible food surplus into a social solution. We believe that many groups across London are using and developing ingenious and resourceful ways to reduce food waste, to repurpose surplus food and to provide food to help feed those experiencing food poverty. Whilst there is a prevalence of food banks offering dry goods and valuable services to those most in need, there seems to be increasingly limited support for the hundreds of groups and clubs who aim to provide nutritious, healthy and reliable sources of fresh food to those experiencing poverty, hunger and isolation in the Capital. There is also a need to provide support to those groups who are developing new ideas and adopting different approaches to reduce food waste and redistribute surplus food. This £320,000 open grants programme is funded by Citi, D&D London and the Dispossessed Fund.
Through this fund, we want to support groups working across London who are turning edible food surplus into a social solution; who are diverting food that is fit for human consumption away from being wasted and using it to feed people in need; who are developing solutions to improve how food is redistributed; who are striving to reduce food waste at production or store level and in the home; and who are directly delivering solutions to alleviate hunger and food poverty in London. We are also keen to support projects that encourage volunteering opportunities for people to get involved.
Grants of between £1,000 and £20,000 are available to support work where there is clear evidence of benefit to those experiencing food poverty, disadvantage or isolation in London or those reducing food waste.
To be eligible, all projects will need to demonstrate improvements for those experiencing food poverty. The range of projects will vary greatly but might cover the following areas:
- Activities and services that reach people experiencing food poverty
- Redistribution of edible surplus fresh food for the benefit of people in need (such as the homeless, the elderly for example)
- Activities and initiatives tackling the issue of surplus food and food waste
- Improving, purchasing or renting equipment or facilities to reach more people experiencing food poverty or those in need
- Improving platforms or testing new ideas and approaches for repurposing food for the benefit of people experiencing food poverty or those in need
- Providing fresh produce to those experiencing food poverty or isolation.
We are looking for proposals where applicants are able to demonstrate clear need and demand for the proposed projects. For larger grant requests, we would expect proposals to demonstrate how they will provide longer term benefits for participants and beneficiaries and deliver greater community impact.
Grant Size
Grants of minimum £1,000 and up to maximum £20,000 are available to support work where there is clear evidence of benefit to those experiencing food poverty, disadvantage or isolation in London or those reducing food waste.
It is extremely important to note that applicants should ONLY apply for the funds that you need to deliver your project or solution. It is anticipated that the level of funds requested will vary greatly due to the range of projects that are eligible to this programme.
Many groups will require low levels of funds to keep their operations going or buy new equipment; others may require more funds to scale up a proven operation or to test and develop new solutions. In all cases, applicants will be assessed against the evidence and level of need for the project AS WELL AS being assessed against the level of funds required to deliver the project. In all cases, your request should be appropriate to your level of experience, ability to deliver and evidence of need.
Who can Apply?
Constituted community groups, registered charities, companies limited by guarantee, social enterprises or Community Interest Companies (CIC's) are all eligible to apply to the fund. Profit making organisations/enterprises may be eligible to apply provided they can demonstrate community benefit and that the funding will not be used to generate any profit for shareholders. If you are a profit making organisation, or you are in any doubt, please contact us before making your application.

If I have a website powered by wordpress, that has a main featured slider on the home page that rotates, what is it that makes it rotate?
w/o knowing the specific code that question is hard to answer.
Generally the following techniques are employed:
1) for random STATIC images, WP may be using a PHP script. Building an array of image URLs, then using rand(0, count($your_array)-1); to pick an image at random.2) if its a SLIDE SHOW. then you do need .js of some sort. If this is the case ALL your images are present ALL the time and the scripts merely changes the position of the images to make one visible over the other (usually by changing CSS classes). If you were to turn off CSS and JS you SHOULD(not necessarily tho) see your entire slide show displayed as a plain list of images. the .js is probably executing on timeout(), to rotate the images at an interval. On your HTML try to locate this list ( or a DIV reaped around it) and see what ID/or class it has. You can then inspect your jQuery selectors for code that target that element or .js getElementByID('that elements ID')3) the other method, tho I cant think why WP would use this , employs AJAX. That is , the javascript is calling another document(page) and replacing it to create the slides. This method would not be as easy to spot simply by looking at view source or inspecting the element.
Hope that helps
Brilliant, it is as you said in #2. How enlightning, many thanks
jQuery is a library of functions that is written in JavaScript to perform common tasks that saves people with a reasonable but not expert level of JavaScript knowledge the trouble of creating their own library. You need a reasonable level of JavaScript knowledge to be able to use jQuery properly and if you have a high level of JavaScript knowledge you will likely have already created your own equivalent library and so would not need the jQuery one.
For fading systems I use my own jQuery code but for a quick sliding banner system I use the jQuery Slides plugin. Have a look at it here: http://www.slidesjs.com/
This thread has inspired me to take a developers course. After paying for a certified web developers course, I found out that there is no regulartory certificate for this field. Is this correct?
None that I know of. Lots of technical colleges offer courses around here but they are only certified by themselves so... Not an industry standard by any stretch.
Just started my js course, I havn't got a clue what they are taking aboout. I'm hoping it will all become clear in time
Well, I suppose it all depends on what they are teaching you in the course. Web development takes shape in a variety of disciplines:
1) HTML/CSS/Javascript - Primarily has to do with the user interface. This is called client side code.
2) PHP, ASP.NET, Coldfusion, Classic ASP, Java Server Pages are server side technologies that run on the server and generate/serve client side code.
3) MySQL, MS SQL Server, Access, SQL Lite, etc... are some of the databases that the server side code is used to store and retrieve data (content) on websites
4) WordPress, Drupal, Joomla, Concrete5, Expression Engine, etc... are content management systems built upon the above three items to automate the process of building and maintaining modern websites.
In my daily routine, depending on what I'm doing, I will typically write a smattering of PHP code, plus database SQL queries which will then be rendered as HTML often using Javascript and CSS to make the display more intuitive.
My suggestion for someone new to the whole web development world would be to concentrate and master one area first. For instance, learn HTML/CSS so that you can look at a complex layout and intuitively know how you will render it as HTML using CSS to control how it all fits together; using background colours and css-gradients & opacity to manage drop shadows or overlaping areas.
Once you've mastered that, I would suggest looking at using Javascript (one of the libraries like jQuery) to add some pizzazz to your layouts. I often use jQuery to display/hide messaging, validate forms or build tabbed catalogue pages.
Also get a good book about PHP/MySQL to learn about how server-side code and databases interact to produce pages like the this forum page. Sitepoint has a ptretty good book right here: http://www.sitepoint.com/books/phpmysql5/
Thanks for the good advice - sitepoint has really been helping me with my html and css so I'm getting more confident and getting a good understanding with it now. the js part of the course has just gone right over my head at the moment so I jumped the the php part as I'm more familiar with mysql and myphpadmin etc. Can you give me an example of a java scripted page as opposed to one that isn't javascripted to give me a better idea as to what it does and why and when I would use it?
Well, there are all sorts of reasons why you would use Javascript in a web page. Most often it is used to add some interactivity to a page; for instance to add a mini-calendar for a date field or to show and hide areas in a FAQ (frequently asked questions) section... That sort of thing. I also use it on occasion to call server-side scripts behind the scene to interact with the database or a web service and pull up results without having to do a full page request. That sort of thing is commonly known as an AJAX request.
I chose jQuery because it is relatively easy to latch on to and there is a lot of documentation about it on the web with examples of working code: http://jquery.com/

Place about 2 to 3 inches of oil in a deep frying pot over a medium flame. When the oil is hot (do not let it smoke), deep fry 1/3 of the cubed tofu until golden. Remove and drain on paper towels. Deep fry the remaining tofu, 1/2 at a time, remove and drain. Set aside while you prepare the sauce.
Combine the water, maple syrup, vinegar, chili powder and ginger in a small saucepan and bring almost to a boil. Reduce the flame to low and slowly add the dissolved kuzu, stirring constantly, until thick. Add the tofu, scallions, shoyu, mix well and simmer another 2 to 3 minutes. Serve as a side dish or as a sauce over any Eden Traditional Pasta or cooked organic grain.
Vegetables such as carrots, snow peas, broccoli, mung bean sprouts or organic soybean sprouts may be added to the sauce and cooked before adding the tofu for variety.

How to Really Drink Bourbon
Although it has no official state beer (hey, we tried), Missouri has churned out oceans of Bud over the years from Anheuser-Busch's St. Louis brewery. That gives the King of Beers the right to be recognized as some sort of state dignitary — national, even.
Lone Star Beer
"The National Beer of Texas" seems to have two strikes against it in this at-bat. Strike one: Lone Star's now-defunct San Antonio brewery was founded by Adolphus Busch. Of "Anheuser-Busch, St. Louis, Missouri" fame. Strike two: The company that now owns the Lone Star brand is headquartered in Illinois. Which is not very Texas of them.

Tuesday night at 7:55 p.m., Baltimore County Police responded to a home in the 700 block of Leafydale Terrace in Pikesville for a report of a robbery that had just occurred.
The initial investigation into this incident indicates that around 7:50 p.m., a man got out of his car in front of a home in the 700 block of Leafydale Terrace when he was approached by two suspects. Both suspects had masks on and were armed with handguns. One of the suspects stated, "You know what this is," to the victim before taking the victim's cell phone and wallet. The suspects walked the victim to a nearby house and entered it. Once the suspects entered, they noticed many people inside the home. One of the suspects said that there were too many people in the home, and they fled the scene towards Milford Mill Road.
- The first suspect is described as a black male, 30 to 40 years old, and 6' tall. He was wearing a black leather jacket, a ski mask, and dark blue jeans. He was armed with a silver handgun.
- The second suspect is described as a black male, 18 to 26 years old, and 5'8" tall. He was wearing a black jacket, a ski mask, black jeans, and brown boots. He was armed with a dark colored handgun.

At 8:36 p.m. Tuesday, Baltimore County Police responded to a home in the 3200 block of Hatton Road in Pikesville in reference to a robbery.
The initial investigation indicates that the victim heard a knock at his door around 8:15 p.m.. He answered the door and observed two people standing on his front porch. One person was holding an empty cup and asked him for some water. The victim took the cup and turned to go to the kitchen. The subjects then entered the home. One of the suspects displayed a handgun, and forced the victim and his teenage daughter into the living room. Once in the living room, the other suspect tied up the man and his daughter.
Several computer tablets, jewelry, a camcorder, a wallet, cash, an iPod touch, and a cell phone were taken from the location. The suspects moved a television from the basement but left it at the location.
The suspects fled the scene when the victim told them he had activated the alarm.
- The first suspect is described as a black male, 28 to 30 years old, and 6' tall. He was wearing a black, parka-style ski jacket, a brown mask that covered his face from the nose down, black pants and brown work boots. This suspect was armed with a silver handgun.
- The second suspect is described as a black male, 18 to 20 years old, and 5'10" tall. He was wearing a black jacket, black mask that covered his face from the nose down, and black pants.
The victims received minor injuries that did not require transportation to a medical facility.
These incidents are under active investigation by the Pikesville Precinct Investigative Services Team. Investigators are attempting to determine whether the crimes were targeted.
Residents are urged not to answer the door for a person that they do not know and to report any suspicious activity to police.
Anyone with information on this incident is asked to call Baltimore County Police at 410-887-1279 or 410-307-2020.

Alternately, you can add a 5GHz band component, such as Netgear's WNHDEB111 networking kit or Linksys's WGA600N to your present router. There are 23 channels available at 5GHz, and almost no one is using them right now. Switching to adapters is the most cost-efficient method because you'll basically still be using your original router, but adding a 5GHz pipe to it through which you'll funneling your Wi-Fi devices.
You'll need a pair of adapters. One is attached to a network switch to which you've also attached several of your PCs or other networked devices. The other is attached to your router. As far as your network is concerned, the devices on the switch are hardwired to the router. Practically speaking, they communicate through the 5GHz adapters and it's the adapters that handle the transition down to 2.5GHz at the two end points -- all the while communicating between each other across the 5GHz band.
Don't overlook 2.5GHz/5GHz routers themselves (you'll want at least simultaneous dual-band models, those that can work on both 2.5GH and 5GHz at the same time, not either/or devices). This is a major investment because you've basically put yourself on the full upgrade path for your network and it's not going to be cheap. All of the major router manufacturers have such products. You can read about dual-band models from SMC, Apple, DLink, Linksys, and Netgear here.
Upgrade Your Firmware
Finally, try upgrading your firmware. This is last in the pile because it's a task that will probably make you nervous. The usual procedure is to:
It is that easy, but you may freak out thinking of all the possible things that might go wrong (like if you lose power during the upgrade…).

Re: Anthony died on 30th July in a London Hospice
Hi to everyone,Pauline,Darla,Teresa,Margaret,Marion,Sue,Julia and all those who visit this cosy,comforting thread.I have not posted for a while,we are in the depths of winter here and even though we dont have a severe winter it is pretty dreary,the short days especially.
I injured my knee at work and it turned out to be a torn cartiledge(medial meniscus)so I will have surgery next week.I have never had an operation or anaesthetic before!I have also had problems with my jaw,tmj stuff,stress related.The boys are all ok and Russ sets off in a few weeks for a trip backpacking around North America for a couple of months.
I hope you are feeling ok now,Pauline,I dont know about that idea of going to the hospital or hospice.I am not sure it would help.I think places that have happier or neutral memories are easier on us at this point.
I found I was ok with the anniversaries of birthdays,wedding anniversaries etc but the anniversary of the onset of Joels illness and then his death were trickier.
It was me that said it was a form of post traumatic stress,Darla and my GP who suggested it to me because of the unexpectedness of the event particularly for you when it was so quick it was like a rollercoaster.
Anyhow,take care all and enjoy your weekend Janet x

"Game changer" is a term you hear often when people talk about how technology has changed their industry.
Beginning this week, McDonald's is expected to launch the long-awaited national campaign for its new coffee line, touted as the biggest launch in the restaurant chain's history.

 While the company won't detail how much it is spending, McCafé is expected to receive an outpouring of more than $100 million fanned out across TV, print, radio, outdoor, internet, events, PR and sampling, Advertising Age reported.

 And there's a lot riding on the budget: McCafé is expected to add about $1 billion to McDonald's bottom line in the United States—about $75,000 per restaurant—and the chain is banking on national advertising to realize that financial goal, the report stated.

 "I assure you that we're going to be surrounding the consumer with very relevant messaging," says Neil Golden, chief marketing officer for McDonald's USA. He said initial ads "will pulse on and off very strongly through the summer, with sustained weight well into 2010."

 McDonald's already has started the push with coupon booklets in newspapers for McCafé, which initially includes cappuccinos, hot and iced lattes and mochas, hot and iced coffees, and hot chocolate. McDonald's will add smoothies and frappes to the beverage line later this year and into 2010, according to Advertising Age.

 One of the new TV spots incorporates the accent mark from McCafé. When you "McCafé your day," a commute becomes a commuté. When a pal drops by your cubicle with an iced mocha, it's a cubiclé. "There's a wit and charm to the brand, and to the products and to McDonald's," explained Marlena Peleo-Lazar, McDonald's USA chief creative officer.

 The chain understands it faces a quality-perception hurdle with first-time buyers, so it's focused on "making the product the hero" in TV spots, adds Peleo-Lazar. McCafe's African-American and Hispanic campaigns will reflect preferences based on consumer insights. African-Americans are more interested in sweeter beverages, while Hispanics tend to be coffee and espresso experts, so they need assurance on quality.

 Radio spots will teach consumers "How to Speak McCafé" by using the accent mark, while an online effort uses actors from Chicago's Second City comedy theater, the magazine reported.

 McDonald's spokeswoman Danya Proud says the chain will examine more opportunities like its sponsorship of Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week, in which the chain built a McCafé lounge and served drinks to attendees. Chicago also holds Free McCafé Mondays, when anyone can drop in to McD's for a free drink, Advertising Age reports.

 In addition, McDonald's is doing summer giveaways with Visa, including two $50,000 grand prizes for 100-word entries about why McDonald's should "McCafé Your day."

 Starbucks Corp.

 Meanwhile, Starbucks Corp. this week will lower pricing on select items in some of its markets to better convey the brand's value message. Prices will drop on some popular items, but prices also will increase on others, Nation's Restaurant News reported.

 Howard Schultz, Starbucks chairman, chief executive and president, says the pricing changes will be accompanied by a multimillion-dollar advertising campaign, set to begin today. The campaign will combat the notion that the coffeehouse chain offers only expensive lattes and that fast-food rivals are stealing market share.

 "Speculation that Starbucks is losing retail market share to competitors has been grossly exaggerated," Schultz says. "Our customers are not trading down."

 He says the weak economy is continuing and customers remain focused on value. "But customers are looking for meaningful value," he says, "not just a lower price, but quality."

 Starting today, prices will be "fine-tuned" in select markets to make some popular items more affordable. A grande iced coffee, for example, will be priced under $2—reportedly a 45-cent savings in some markets, according to Nation's Restaurant News.

 Dunkin' Donuts

 Not to be outdone, Dunkin' Donuts announced yesterday that all participating shops in the New York Tri-State area will roll back prices for its entire line of latte beverages. The rollback applies to all sizes, flavors and varieties of hot and iced lattes, including the Latte Lite, the chain's DDSMART menu option made with skim milk and Splenda.

 Latte prices will be reduced by roughly 15 percent, the company reported.

 "This rollback allows consumers in the New York Tri-State area to purchase a latte for less than $2," Dunkin' Donuts Field Marketing Manager Louis Conte said in a statement. "In these difficult economic times, we're hoping that rolling back prices will help keep America running and moving forward. This latte offer reaffirms our commitment to offer high-quality beverages at an everyday value for our customers."

 The New York Tri-State area includes the following counties in New York: Bronx, Dutchess, Kings, Nassau, New York, Orange, Putnam, Queens, Richmond, Rockland, Suffolk, Sullivan, Ulster and Westchester counties. New Jersey counties included in the promotion are: Bergen, Essex, Hudson, Hunterdon, Middlesex, Monmouth, Morris, Ocean, Passaic, Somerset, Sussex, Union, and Warren. In Connecticut, Fairfield County is part of the promotion.

THURSDAY, Oct. 4 (HealthDay News) -- Researchers who discovered genetic risk factors linked to uterine fibroids in white women say their findings will lead to new screening and treatment methods for the condition.
Uterine fibroids are the most common type of pelvic tumor in women -- they occur in 75 percent of women of reproductive age -- and the leading cause of hysterectomy in the United States. Uterine fibroids can lead to abnormal vaginal bleeding, infertility, pelvic pain and pregnancy complications.
Researchers at Brigham and Women's Hospital in Boston analyzed genetic data from more than 7,000 white women and identified variations in three genes that are significantly associated with uterine fibroids.
One of these variations occurred in a gene called FASN, which encodes a protein called FAS (fatty acid synthase). Further investigation showed that FAS protein production was three times higher in uterine fibroid samples compared to normal tissue, according to the report published online Oct. 4 in the American Journal of Human Genetics.
Overproduction of FAS protein occurs in various types of tumors and is believed to be important for tumor cell survival, the study authors pointed out in a hospital news release.
"Our discovery foretells a path to personalized medicine for women who have a genetic basis for development of uterine fibroids," senior study author Cynthia Morton, director of the Center for Uterine Fibroids, said in the news release. "Identification of genetic risk factors may provide valuable insight into medical management," she concluded.
More information
The U.S. National Institute of Child Health and Human Development has more about uterine fibroids.

Prediction: a DP or a dbl
Prediction: a DP or a dbl
Batista is a geezer that somehow gets guys out with little stuff.
wow Cleveland won, this makes the night much worse
I told you that getting to the Card pen would be important. Cards have good young arms but put geezers with nothing in first. We got a ballgame boys.
Edgar= best player on the team
Well, the boys aren't quitting, and I do love that about them. but can we ever have a game where they just beat the ever lovin' snot out of these jerks? Please. I want to see a good old fashioned stomping.
Regardless of the outcome, Votto has had a good AB. Fouled off quite a few pitcher's pitches. Hopefully Miller leaves him one over the plate.

Would You Wear '50 Shades of Grey' Lingerie? Inevitable Merchandise Is Coming
It was inevitable: '50 Shades of Grey' merchandise is coming in the form of lingerie, home furnishings, perfume, bedding, and more.
-Lucia Peters
Let me ask you a question, Bettys: Would you wear 50 Shades of Grey lingerie? How about perfume? Would you furnish your home with 50 Shades furniture? Sleep on 50 Shades bedding? Write letters on 50 Shades stationary? Even if your answer to all of these queries is a resounding no, you'd better prepare yourselves mentally, because guess what? It's happening. For real.
According to the Hollywood Reporter, 50 Shades of Grey author Snowqueens Icedragon—sorry, E.L. James—and her agent Val Hoskins have selected the UK-based company Caroline Mickler Ltd. To be the global licensing agent for merchandise based on the book and its two sequels. Although specific products haven't yet been announced, Mickler is considering, in addition to the products mentioned above, marketing apparel, sleepwear, beauty products, jewelry, and "adult products aimed at adult women" (you do the math on what exactly that means). Mickler will be putting in an appearance at Las Vegas' Licensing Expo—which is happening right now, actually—and at London's Brand Licensing Europe 2012 in October to meet with potential licensees.
Although I am mildly horrified by this development, at the same time, I'm also kind of surprised it took this long. 50 Shades of Grey is an incredible cash cow and everyone is trying to milk it for everything it's worth, so how can it be that no one thought to create crazy tie-in merchandise until now? Maybe it just took a while to get the idea off the ground or something.
Read Gratuitous George Clooney Photos
But back to being horrified for a moment. Why am I horrified when so many other literary franchises have followed this same path? Well, let's consider those other franchises for a moment. Twilight, Harry Potter, The Hunger Games… the target audience for these cultural phenomena are what we nebulously term "young adults." Do "young adults" love having Harry Potter all over their walls and Edward Cullen on their bedspread? Of course they do, because they're kids. 50 Shades of Grey, on the other hand, is most definitely intended for adults—and I don't know about you, but no matter how classy the designs could potentially be, the idea of a fully-grown adult willingly sleeping on schlockfic-themed bedding kind of wigs me out.
But maybe that's just me. Although I am not a fan of 50 Shades myself, I realize there are many who are, and if you want to go to bed wearing 50 Shades jammies, that's your business, not mine. The book has sold more than 13 million copies in the US alone and Focus Features paid $5 million for the movie rights, so clearly it is alive and well and not going anywhere soon, so I guess I'd better get used to it.
Tell us: Would you buy 50 Shades of Grey merchandise?

GAME 4 - PENN (1-2) vs. DREXEL (0-2)
Saturday, Nov. 17 * 4 p.m.
The Palestra (Philadelphia)
TV: PennAthletics.com (there is a charge for this)
Radio: WFIL 560 AM (Matt Leon, Vince Curran)
Penn Game Notes (PDF) / Drexel Game Notes (PDF)
The Series
*The Quakers lead the series with the Dragons, 15-8.
*That said, Drexel has won the last four games in the series, the most recent coming two seasons ago when the Dragons downed Penn, 77-56, here at The Palestra. Prior to this current Drexel run, Penn had won four in a row in the series.
*After meeting every year, uninterrupted, since the 1997-98 season, Penn and Drexel did not meet last season in what had been an annual "Battle for 33rd Street."
*Penn is 39-15 all-time against programs that currently compete in the Colonial Athletic Association. This is actually the Quakers' second game against a CAA team this week; on Monday, they lost to Delaware in the NIT first round, 84-69. (18-5 vs. Delaware, 15-8 vs. Drexel, 1-1 vs. Hofstra, 0-1 vs. JMU, 1-0 vs. Northeastern, 2-0 vs. Towson, 2-0 vs. William & Mary)
NIT Season Tip-Off
Following Saturday's game, Penn goes back into the NIT for its final two games in the 16-team, NCAA-exempt event. Here's what to look for...
*After losing twice at Virginia last week (84-69 to Delaware, 62-53 to Fairfield), Penn will travel to Lehigh for its two games this Monday and Tuesday.
*Penn will play Fordham on Monday night at 6 p.m., followed by Lehigh and Fairfield at 8:30 p.m.
*Penn will face the host Mountain Hawks on Tuesday at 8:30 p.m., following the Fairfield-Fordham game that will tip off at 6 p.m.
*The radio call for Monday night's game can be heard locally in Philadelphia on WNTP 990 AM, while Tuesday's game will air locally on WXPN 88.5 FM.
Busy November
Penn will play seven games before the calendar turns to December. Interestingly, the only full month in which the Quakers will play more than seven games happens to be the shortest month of the year, February -- they will play eight. Penn will play four games in December, seven in January, and five in March.
Countdown to 1,700
Penn's win over UMBC last Friday was its 1,698th win as a program; the Quakers need two more to become the 10th NCAA Division I program to reach 1,700 victories.
Youth Movement
*Talk about youth -- Penn enters the 2012-13 season with no seniors. In an informal survey of the 345 other NCAA Division I programs, only Georgetown, Navy and Wright State came back as programs that started 2012-13 without any seniors on the roster.
Youth Movement, Part Deux
*Our colleagues at Navy came up with another way to determine a team's lack of experience, using a ratio that measured the total number of combined seasons playing Division I basketball against the number of players on the roster. Penn came in at 1.00 (15 combined years of experience/15 players on the roster). Only 13 teams had a lower ratio. (FYI, Navy was third, at 0.76, behind Cal State Northridge's 0.65 and Dartmouth's 0.73.)
Home is Where the Wins Are
Penn enters the 2012-13 season with 803 wins at The Palestra, which opened in 1927. In yet another informal survey of the other NCAA Division I programs, only Washington (921 wins at Hec Edmundson Pavilion) and Butler (812 wins at Hinkle Fieldhouse) boast more wins in their current home than the Quakers. The Edmundson Pavilion was opened in 1927, while the Bulldogs opened Hinkle in 1928.
Quaker Notemeal From the NIT
*Penn wore red uniforms in its game Monday with Delaware; it marked the first time that the Quakers wore red since March 7, 2006, a 60-59 overtime loss at Princeton.
*Penn's game with Fairfield was its first ever against the Stags, and it matched Jerome Allen up with a familiar face in Fairfield head coach Sydney Johnson. Johnson played at Princeton when Allen was playing at Penn, and was head coach of the Tigers the first four times Allen matched up with them as Penn's head coach. With Tuesday's result, Johnson moved into a 5-4 lead in their individual series (previously Allen 4-0 as a player, Johnson 4-0 as Princeton's head coach).
*Junior Fran Dougherty blew up at the NIT; he had a career-high 21 points against Delaware (previous high 14, set last year vs. La Salle), then exploded for 31 of Penn's 53 points against Fairfield. He also had 10 rebounds against the Stags for his first collegiate double-double.
*Dougherty's 31-point outing against Fairfield was the best scoring game by a Penn player since Ibrahim Jaaber dropped 32 on Seton Hall on Dec. 23, 2006.
*After missing the season opener, freshman Jamal Lewis made his collegiate debut against Delaware, playing 29 minutes at the point and finishing the game with four points, two assists (without a turnover) and three steals before fouling out. He followed that up with 32 minutes against Fairfield where he had six rebounds and four steals to go with two points.
*Delaware collected 47 rebounds in Monday's game, matching an opponent high in the Jerome Allen coaching era (previously set by Duke on Jan. 1, 2012).
