The Grand Prix Commission has repealed of the Rookie Rule, as well as a freeze on engine bore and stroke through the end of the 2014 season.
Rookie Rule Scrapped
As expected, the Rookie Rule has been scrapped for the 2013 season. The rule had prevented rookies from riding for a factory team. The decision will allow Marc Marquez to be promoted directly to the Repsol Honda squad, replacing the retiring Casey Stoner.
Officials also declared the maximum number of entries from a manufacturer for 2013, stating: "In the MotoGP class manufacturers are restricted to two direct entries per manufacturer and may provide material for a maximum of two entries per manufacturer operated by Independent teams."
Technical Regulations
The Grand Prix Commission approved an immediate freeze on engine bore and stroke dimensions. Effective immediately, the bore and stroke may not be altered until the end of the 2014 season. Technical changes for the 2013 season include restrictions to the gearbox. Teams will be limited to "a maximum of 24 possible gear ratios and four possible ratios for the primary gear."
One-Bike Rule Nixed & Carbon Fiber Brakes Stay
The Commission decided to pass on implementation of the one-bike rule, a measure employed in the World Superbike and several national Superbike series to cut costs. Officials also rejected a proposal to ditch carbon fiber brakes, another cost-cutting measure.
The biggest news from the Commission meeting may be what wasn't decided. Officials did not announce radical changes such as introduction of a rev limiter or spec ECU, which appear to have been tabled for now.

A new audio tube
It isn't ready yet but looks promising. I do know it's a beam tube.

Interesting! I get the strong impression that this tube is aimed at the musical industry (e.g. guitar amp manufacturers). This makes me wonder if it will succeed, given the popularity of long-established rival products on the market (6L6, EL34, etc.)
I wonder, also, if they will develop something for 'hi-fi', like a power triode that works at a reasonable voltage for a reasonable price? It'd be nice to be able to buy an indirectly heated equivalent of the 300B for < $100!

Only if a magazine guru tells people it will
Usually the NDS requirement means the tube is still in the "beta" stage and new designs with it should be not considered until full release. The paramaters could change significantly.
But it's good to see people taking the risk

"New Tube"..........
OK...So its' a new tube, and they have their own numerical designation? Given that there are perhaps a hundred different tube designations with specs ranging from virtual micro-tubes up thru monster transmitter types....who cares! I'd bet that one could find an 'old' tube with nearly identical specs, although probably out of production.
The hype that they are spewing speaks volumes as to what to expect............A very high price, undoubtly they will be serial numbered, boxed in a mahogany case & delivered to the one thru the lottery type system. The "winner" will have the precious tube delivered by the owners of the company......etc, etc.
Did you all notice how "Professional" the lab-table appeared with the fender amps lying there upside-down? I would never deal with such a "company" if this is their lab.....Even if it isn't their lab, that just looks shoddy...especially if this picture shows up on their web-site with the "new" tube announcement.

New Tube...
Yes! I wasn't impressed with the photos as well....And this is the big introduction? Ha Haa! I'm suprised there's not a pack of smokes and a can of Bud in those pics as well. How good can this tube actually sound? It certainly LOOKS interesting enough with the those tall brown bases, but I bet you it doesn't sound any better than a GE 6L6 or a Mullard EL34!

I can't imagine after spending a few years in the MI electronics side of the industry that there are going to be very many adaptors of this tube.
Tubes for guitar amplifiers are generally chosen on the basis of cost, and ready availability from the local music emporium.
Description of their qualification and product process is either marketing claptrap or a sign that these guys are fairly clueless about what the MI market will bear price wise.
That work bench is the most unprofessional looking pile of rubbish (or insert your favorite expletive here ) I have ever seen on a site purporting to represent a serious commercial effort. Were I a major manufacturer I would not be taking them at all seriously after seeing a mess like that. (Excessively tidy might be suspicious too, but note the conspicuous absence of any sort of test equipment, even a meter for setting the bias.)
The comments about gurus, hobbyists, and the like was pretty disingenuous, particularly given the messy appearance of that bench. Yeah I'll harp on that some more..
Based on the amplifiers in which these sample tubes were installed I would guess it is an improved 6L6 variant.
Note that they made no mention of ruggedized mechanical construction - an area where modern tubes are often very deficient. This is the one area where they could make a meaningful contribution. I've replaced a number of current production 6L6 in Fenders and they generally seem to shake to pieces in a year or less of moderately hard use.
Given the copyright date on the site I would not be too inclined to take this too seriously. It may be yesterday's news.

To me the workbench looks like a normal workbench for someone who repairs or modifies guitar amps. I would be far more sceptical of someone with a pristine (never used) workbench.
The workbench in my lab often gets to looking like this near the end of a big project. It now has computer parts all over it since the first complete PC that I have ever bought arrived DOA, and I had to fix it. I was trying to save time by buying a computer instead of building one. On the bright side Fedex brought new memory yesterday, and the PC has been running flawlessly overnight. Two months for a "next day shipping" PC. Now I can clean this PC stuff up and mess it up again with tube amplifier parts.
I however will at least clean up the visible surfaces when I take pictures for my web site or even these forum pages (most of the time). If I was trying to "stage" a picture for a press release or web photo, I would only have the necessary equipment in the photo. My particle board bench top is 25 years old, and yes the burn marks and stains are real. (I have been asked in an e-mail).
As for the tubes, I doubted that someone would cook up something entirely new and this different looking, compared to the usual guitar amp tubes without something to start from. Besides, it looks familiar. Then I realized that about a year ago I dug up some old military surplus tubes that looked wicked, so I cranked a pair up in P-P mode. No problem getting 100 watts from a pair (700 plate volts) without any death glow. The tubes that I found have plate caps, so the plate voltage spec is 4 KV, screen voltage spec is a mere 800 volts. Plate diss = 40 watts, octal base. Looking for a tube that is triode or UL capable at 700 volts? Oh, yeah I have fed my guitar preamp through the breadboarded amp, and it absolutely screams.
I am assuming that someone made these with the plate wired out the bottom. Probably Bendix or Tung Sol.
I looked in my box of potential tube types (that I need to get back to) and there are a few of these. They have brown bases just like the ones in their picture. Oh, the type number, You want the number?
Try 3D21WB.
Tubelab, it's 5 year mission. To explore strange new tubes, to seek out new circuits and topologies, to boldly go where no tube has gone before......

Hi Tubelab,
Interesting catch on the 3D21WB.. Hmmmm.. I suspect you are right..
I have heard rumors for years of someone preparing to resurrect the Sylvania 6L6STR, but so far nothing seems to have materialized that I am aware of.. Any thoughts on that one?
My bench gets pretty messy during projects too, but I am sure like yours it looks a little more like a bench full of electronics and not flotsam and jetsam like the one on that site.. (It looked rather like someone had dumped the contents of a small dumpster on that bench. hehe) I have taken some truly dreadful pix of some of my projects and I am relatively sure it didn't help my credibility any..

Facebook Stock Falls to New Low
What's worse than your stock tumbling after going public? Your stock tumbling some more. Facebook shares slid another 5 percent Tuesday, dropping the social network's value about 21 percent since going public on May 18. The stock closed at $28.84 for the day, down from an IPO of $42. As for Zuckerberg's personal life, things couldn't be better. He's just off a honeymoon in Rome with his Facebook-official wife, Priscilla Chan, and the two made a surprise—and accidental—cameo in a Chinese documentary.

I found and joined Weather Underground in September of 2007. Since then I have participated in the photography group with a great deal of pleasure, friendship, learning and a means of seeing the rest of the world.I am not only saddened, but quite upset at the announced closure of this part of Weather Underground.I hope that other members of the community will join us on FaceBook and keep in touch.I'm a native Oregonian, born in Tillamook and reared in the greater Portland area. After working in the Bay Area in the semi-conductor industry as a Human Resources Representative, my husband and I retired in 1999, returned to Southern Oregon and settled in the Williams area. Photography interests started early on with a Kodak Box camera and later a Kodak 616 given to me by my father, a semi-professional photographer. After many years of film cameras, the advent of digital photography has expanded my interest in the hobby. My camera is the Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ100. The Pacifica Gardens property has become the preferred subject of my photography because of its natural beauty. I have captured all four seasons over the past twelve years.

Valley of the Khans from Albert Lin on Vimeo.
Picture the young explorer, standing in his StarCAVE, searching for the tomb of Genghis Khan. Picture the world around him, the wilderness stretching away in all directions. Picture him stooping to inspect some rocks near his feet, rocks that together form a suspiciously tidy rectangle, a rectangle that stands out for its orderliness amid the surrounding chaos of green lichen and gray talus. Picture him making a note to himself, then turning toward a faraway peak topped by an ancient shrine and launching himself toward it at several hundred miles an hour.
It's an illusion, of course. The StarCAVE, this five-walled Cave Automated Virtual Environment, is a trickster, a dream-bringer. It squats in an earthquake-proof room in a laboratory at the University of California, San Diego, and allows its users to immerse themselves in huge three-dimensional projections of computer-generated molecules or architectural CAD blueprints or, as now, high-resolution satellite imagery of northern Mongolia. The explorer squats to examine pixels, not rocks, and when he flies away, he's standing still. None of this is real.
Except for the explorer.
He's as real as it gets.
Albert Lin, 28, received his doctorate from the materials science and engineering program at UCSD early last year. He's a good scientist, one who's earned kudos for his work probing the strengths and weaknesses of crustraceans and mollusks. Upon his graduation, his mother, a former Hong Kong movie star, and his father, an astrophysicist, both urged him to get on with things as soon as possible, to find a job that would allow him to eat more steak, less ramen. Instead, Lin decided to begin his postgraduate career by organizing a high-risk, high-stakes project, one that offered little stability and even less promise of success.

Daily Deal 2/10/13: Prabal Gurung x Target
Every morning I wake up to an inbox overloaded with special offers, deals, flash sales and hot items. So why not let me do the work for you? I have looked through them all to pick the deal you just can't miss! Whether it's an on trend item, a fantastic sale or a classic staple piece, rest assured I will give you the daily deal worth buying.
The day has arrived!!! The Prabal Gurung x Target debuted in stores and online TODAY! If you waited outside a Target location, you are amazing and ridiculous and I love it. But guess what, there is still plenty of merchandise online.
I have to say, I was a bit surprised when I checked the website at noon and had no issues buying items I wanted. I think there were only two pieces that were either out of stock or unavailable online but other than that, I had no problems. Now my credit card bill is another thing all together. But SO worth it! I just hope thing fit - fingers crossed.
Below are some of my favorites from the collection and if you need a refresher before heading over to Target, here's the lookbook.<

Q. I have scars on my arms and legs after a bad outbreak of poison ivy. Are there any natural remedies for scars?
A. Dermatologists and plastic surgeons report that no single therapy has been proven effective for reducing scars (Facial Plastic Surgery Clinics of North America, Aug., 2011). Although some research suggests that onion extract (found in several over-the-counter products) might help, the evidence is not consistent.
Vitamin E oil research is also inconclusive. Dermatologists insist that putting vitamin E on a burn or a wound will do nothing to prevent scarring and may even do harm. Experiments conducted with topical vitamin E are not encouraging:
"This study shows that there is no benefit to the cosmetic outcome of scars by applying vitamin E after skin surgery and that the application of topical vitamin E may actually be detrimental to the cosmetic appearance of a scar. In 90% of the cases in this study, topical vitamin E either had no effect on, or actually worsened, the cosmetic appearance of scars. Of the patients studied, 33% developed a contact dermatitis to the vitamin E. Therefore we conclude that use of topical vitamin E on surgical wounds should be discouraged" (Dermatologic Surgery, April, 1999).
An article in the journal American Family Physician (Aug. 1, 2009) concludes:
"Many patients use topical vitamin E (alpha-tocopherol) hoping its antioxidant properties will prevent scars. However, there is little evidence that it is helpful, and some patients develop a contact dermatitis that may delay healing."
That said, many visitors to our website (PeoplesPharmacy.com) report that vitamin E applied topically has been helpful, but it can trigger a nasty rash in up to a third of those who use it. If you try vitamin E, test it first for several days on the inside of your forearm.
So you can see for yourself what visitors to this website have offered when it comes to vitamin E we paste several comments below:
This comes from F.D.:
"Whenever I see reports of the lack of effectiveness of Vitamin E for various issues I wonder what type of Vitamin E was used in that study. I use only the d versions rather than the synthetic mix of d/l because that seems to make more sense to me. I also think (educated guess only) that the E complex is probably more natural and probably more effective than any one of the sub-types alone.
"I have had excellent results over many years in scar prevention and pain relief from substantial cooking burns as well as for other injuries."
Dale offers this:
"I know it works. In an auto accident some years ago, my face slammed into a side window embedding small pieces of glass on the left side of my face and chin. Little by little the pieces dropped out and left very ugly scars. After the wounds healed I began to apply daily Vitamin E. I did the same to surgery scars a few years after that. Within a year the scars in both places disappeared and there is no sign of them forty years later either place."
B.G. shares:
"I had a bad burn with an enormous blister that went around half my hand when I was in my 20's. I had heard about applying vitamin E directly on the wound and used it. I applied it constantly and kept it moist 24 hours a day, covered very loosely by gauze. You could not possibly find anything anywhere on my hand today. The skin looks exactly the way it did before the burn. I continued to use Vitamin E whenever I had anything that affected my skin in terms of potential scars. It has always worked."
Cindy says:
"I got badly burned once when my campstove blew up. I had huge dark blisters all over my face. I decided to try vitamin E straight from the capsule on one side, and Silvadene (sp?), the burn cream they use at a local hospital's burn unit which is supposed to be the cutting edge in burn treatment, on the other side. Guess what, the results from the 2 sides were identical, i.e., no scar on either side. So how about that? By the way, I heal lightning fast from injuries anyway; still, this seems worth a mention. Cheers!"
We would always say that a bad burn requires immediate medical attention! And not everyone gets good results from vitamin E. Here is just one of many reports of contact dermatitis from vitamin E:
"Many years ago I heard Vitamin E oil was good for dry skin. My skin was always dry and I applied Vitamin E oil for several days on my legs and arms. I ended up with a severe case of dermatitis. It went away after I discontinued the vitamin E oil."
That is why it is important to test a small patch of skin on the forearm (with some vitamin E under a bandage) for a few days to see if a rash develops before considering it for a scar.
Have you had success with using Vitamin E or any other remedies for scars? Please share your story in our comment section.

wikiHow to Beat Twinrova in Zelda: Ocarina of Time
Two Parts:Phase 1Phase 2Community Q&A
The "Twinrova", originally are named Koume and Kotake. Playing this fascinating Nintendo game is sure to keep you wanting for more. It is a different thrill to beat the Twinrova. This wikiHow will teach you how to easily beat Twinrova in Ocarina of Time.
Part 1
Phase 1
1Understand the move of the Twinrova sisters. The Twinrova sisters circle around you slowly. Every once in a while, one stops to shoot either fire or ice at you, depending on the sister. Each of these attacks take a lot of damage, and together the Twinrova sisters make a formidable foe!
2Equip your Mirror Shield. The trick to completing the first phase of the battle is to block an attack with the Mirror Shield back at the opposite sister (so if the fire sister shot fire at you, you would have to use use the Mirror Shield to hit the ice sister).
- A good trick is to stand on the opposite side of the room of the attacking sister. Quickly target the other sister and block the attack with the Mirror Shield.
Part 2
Phase 2
1Notice the change in the form. Soon, the Twinrova sisters will combine into one form.
2Charge up your shield. The goal of this battle is to charge up your shield. When Twinrova shoots at you, block. Choose which element you want to charge your shield with, and if Twinrova shoots the opposite element, jump out of the way.
3Beat Twinrova. Twinrova, once hit, will go down on one of the islands. Thankfully, if you have the Biggoron's Sword, you'll only have to make her go down twice (meaning you only have to hit her four times!). Soon she'll be defeated, and you can collect the Heart Container and step through the portal.
Community Q&A
How do I do it without a mirror shield?wikiHow ContributorYou have to have it, because you need to absorb the fire and ice beams and redirect them using the shield.

I love to play around with easy ways to decorate cupcakes. Cupcakes are supposed to be pretty, but they don't have to be hard to create! Today I want to show you a few easy fondant decorating ideas for your cupcakes. Let's get started!
*All of these items can be found at your local craft stores or baking supply stores. The links on this list are Amazon Affiliate Links)
♥ Rolled Fondant, any color (I like to use the Satin Ice brand)
♥ Small Round Cutters and other cutter shapes of your choice
♥ Sugar syrup
{Simple Fondant Shapes}
- Take a small amount of fondant and roll it out using your fondant roller to approximately 1/8″.
- Cut out shapes, lay on a sheet of wax paper and allow to dry over night.
- Add some sparkle to your fondant shapes by applying a small amount of sugar syrup with a paint brush and sprinkle with a little rainbow disco dust.
{Fondant Rose}
- First, you need to make a fondant cone for the base of your rose, you will want to let your cone dry before attaching your petals.
- Next, roll out your fondant to approximately 1/16″ and cut out several small circles for your rose petals. Keep in mind that the size of your circle cutter depends on how big you want your flower to be.
- Using your ball tool and shaping foam, gently roll the ball tool along the edges of your fondant circle to create a petal. This part may take a little practice, but once you try it you will get the hang of it.
- To attach your petals, apply a small amount of sugar syrup to your petal and wrap around your fondant cone. With the first one you will be creating your rose bud.
- Finally, apply the rest of your petals to form your rose, the more layers you add the bigger your rose will become. The rose I made has about five petals. Let your rose dry before adding it to your cupcake.
{Rolled Fondant Rose Bouquet}
- First, roll out a rectangular piece of fondant to approximately 1/8″ thick, then fold in half length wise.
- Next, start rolling your fondant to shape your rose, make sure to not roll it too tightly.
- Finally, create some fondant leaves and let dry before placing on top of your cupcake.
There ya go! Easy Fondant Decorating Tips- your Cupcakes are going to be amazing in no time (or stress!) at all!

I don't know much about this sort of stuff so retrofitting them myself would be a bit difficult plus I don't know what parts to buy or where a good place to get a kit would be any suggestions?
Thanks for the responses so far guys.
the retro fit source sells a full kit that most people are using since it mounts directly without cutting/trimming of the factory headlights.

DFL'er Falk returning for third term in House 17A
MURDOCK -- DFL State Representative Andrew Falk is headed back to St. Paul for a third term.
Falk, 29, of DFL-Murdock, led Republican challenger Tim Miller, 46, of Prinsburg by an unofficial tally of 10,465 to 8,906 to hold the District 17A House seat.
Miller was making his first bid for state office and faced an uphill battle against the incumbent Falk. Re-districting left much of Falk's original, rural district intact.
District 17A includes all of Chippewa and Swift counties, most of Renville County and the southwestern corner of Kandiyohi County.

NY court uphold ruling on use of town cars
ALBANY — New York's highest court has confirmed a state board's conclusion that personal use of municipal vehicles is an employment benefit subject to union negotiations. The Court of Appeals, divided 5-2, has upheld the 2011 Public Employment Relations Board ruling that Islip improperly ended its 20-year practice of letting dozens of workers drive assigned town vehicles home at night.
However, the court majority says Islip sold vehicles after imposing new restrictions in 2008 and shouldn't be forced "to invest significant taxpayer dollars" to replace them.
Instead, the case is going back to PERB "to fashion a remedy" that gives the workers "commensurate, practical relief" without specifying what.
Dissenting judges say the personal vehicle use, which violated a local law, "should not" evolve into a binding term of employment.

Legal Question in Business Law in New Jersey
Hi - we had a business client in a State of Indiana (we are located in nj), who we delivered IT services too. However once we had delivered the source code, they claimed a chargeback and pulled the money back. How can we go about pursuing this since she does not have any assets in NJ, the amount is about 10k. Please advise.
2 Answers from Attorneys
There are several docs that need to be reviewed in order to figure out a course of action. One being the Services agreement and the choice of law and venue that may be indicated. If there is no services agreement or if the choice of law is not specified, then an inquiry into the Indiana company should be made with respect to potential assets to collect from. In addition, there are various strategic considerations that would be determinative as to which state to file a legal action in.
My office has a special offer for LawGuru clients where we can conduct a limited review of the matter and chart a course of action at $198. To take advantage of this limited offer please go to:

Taylor Devices Inc. (NASDAQ:TAYD) filed Quarterly Report for the period ended 2012-11-30.
Taylor Devices has a market cap of $29 million; its shares were traded at around $8.75 with a P/E ratio of 11.3 and P/S ratio of 0.9. Taylor Devices had an annual average earning growth of 9.9% over the past 10 years.
Highlight of Business Operations:The Company's backlog, revenues, commission expense, gross margins, gross profits, and net income fluctuate from period to period. The changes in the current period, compared to the prior period, are not necessarily representative of future results.
Accounts receivable of $6,667,000 as of November 30, 2012 includes approximately $2,402,000 of amounts retained by customers on Projects. It also includes $42,000 of an allowance for doubtful accounts ("Allowance"). The accounts receivable balance as of May 31, 2012 of $5,610,000 included an Allowance of $42,000. The number of an average day's sales outstanding in accounts receivable ("DSO") increased from 52 days at May 31, 2012 to 92 at November 30, 2012. The DSO is a function of 1.) the level of sales for an average day (for example, total sales for the past three months divided by 90 days) and 2.) the level of accounts receivable at the balance sheet date. The level of sales for an average day in the second quarter of the current fiscal year is approximately 33% less than in the fourth quarter of the prior year when the Company recorded record high level of sales. The level of accounts receivable at the end of the current fiscal quarter is 19% more than at the end of the prior year. The combination of these two factors caused the DSO to increase from last year end to this quarter-end. The $1,057,000 increase in accounts receivable is primarily due to a 68% increase in the retained amounts by customers on construction Projects. The retained amounts are high at this time due to the recent completion or near completion of several Projects. It is expected that the retained amounts will be released in the normal course of the business in accordance with the related contracts. The Company expects to collect the net accounts receivable balance, including the retainage, during the next twelve months.
As noted above, CIEB represents revenues recognized in excess of amounts billed. Whenever possible, the Company negotiates a provision in sales contracts to allow the Company to bill, and collect from the customer, payments in advance of shipments. Unfortunately, provisions such as this are often not possible. The $2,279,000 balance in this account at November 30, 2012 is 59% less than the prior year-end. The Company expects to bill the entire amount during the next twelve months. 68% of the CIEB balance as of the end of the last fiscal quarter, August 31, 2012, was billed to those customers in the current fiscal quarter ended November 30, 2012. The remainder will be billed as the Projects progress, in accordance with the terms specified in the various contracts.
Accounts payable, at $1,510,000 as of November 30, 2012, is 55% less than the prior year-end. The volume of purchases is lower to because sales volume decreased from the final quarter of fiscal 2012. Commission expense on applicable sales orders is recognized at the time revenue is recognized. The commission is paid following receipt of payment from the customers. Accrued commissions as of November 30, 2012 are $748,000, up 19% from the $631,000 accrued at the prior year-end. The Company expects the current accrued amount to be paid during the next twelve months. Other current liabilities decreased 21% from the prior year-end, to $1,774,000. This is primarily due to a lower level of customer advance payments and lower level of accrued incentive compensation expense. Payments on these liabilities will take place as scheduled within the next twelve months.

I once saw a TV show where the woman had eight children. She referred to her kids as "a litter." I don't know why, but that phrase rubbed me the wrong way, and I could never imagine referring to my kids as domesticated pets. I mean, really. A litter?
I waited until I was 40 to start a family. I was done with being single and free and was totally ready to be a mom. We made a conscious decision to keep our family to one child. I've had people ask me why that is. Why is one kid enough? I'll tell you why.
First and foremost, the world is overpopulated already. Why would I want to bring a passel of kids into the world when our resources are seriously depleted, our lands are threatened by unbridled development, and our climate is changing faster than we ever realized?
We chose to keep our family small partly for economic reasons. We can give our daughter everything she needs on our smaller budget. If we had two kids or more kids, both my husband and I would have to seek out work that would take us away from home for longer periods of time, which brings me to my next point:
Time. With one child, we are able to focus our attention on raising the best kid possible. Our combined self-employed budget fits a one-child family perfectly, and I have no desire to return to the mind-numbing rat race of the corporate world. When you're working 40 or 50 hours a week, you're essentially just trading time for money. And in doing so, you're trading that time away from your child. In a global economy, maximizing time for family by finding creative ways to make a living is tantamount to our life. Success does not equal wealth. Success, in our opinion, equals how much time you can spend focusing on your family without worrying about where your next meal is coming from.
By those standards, I'm pretty confident we're successful.
I've had people ask me, "But doesn't your daughter ever get lonely?"
To that, I say, probably, but most of the time, no. She has loving grandparents who shower her with affection. She has cousins she loves spending time with. She is learning how to meet friends on the playground, and she is able to quickly adapt to new situations by taking charge. My kid is no shrinking violet. In fact, she's got more confidence on the playground than I ever had in my little finger.
I love being able to dote on just one kid. I can go to the store and not worry about losing two or three. I can handle a one-child tantrum. There is no question about whose toy belongs to whom and who committed which transgression. My daughter gets plenty of privacy and quiet time and will never feel the need to compete for our attention or affection with another kid.

Giants take over Major League triples lead
Giants take over Major League triples lead
PHOENIX -- It's not the most significant development in the baseball world, but it does reflect something positive: The Giants pulled into the Major League lead in triples while winning the final two games of their previous series at Colorado. Angel Pagan, Gregor Blanco and Hunter Pence each tripled to hike San Francisco's total to 50, eclipsing Colorado's 47. The American League leader in triples is Detroit, with 36. So if the Giants can fend off Colorado in this category -- no other National League club entered Friday with more than 40 triples -- they'll lead the Majors in three-base hits for the first time since 1973. Though Pagan began Friday with a team-high 12 triples, tying Willie Mays (1960) and Steve Finley (2006) for the franchise's highest single-season total since it moved to San Francisco in 1958, the Giants' sources have been balanced. Melky Cabrera hit 10 triples before departing; Joaquin Arias, Brandon Belt and Blanco each have five.
Similarly, the 1973 club received 10 triples apiece from the equally fleet Gary Matthews and Garry Maddox, who were both playing their first full Major League seasons. Tito Fuentes had five triples, while fellow regulars Dave Rader, Chris Speier and Bobby Bonds totaled four each. Though Bonds' total might seem surprisingly low, that happened to be the season in which he hit a career-high 39 homers. Reserves Gary Thomasson and Mike Phillips tripled four times each. Phillips collected his in only 112 plate appearances. And future Hall of Famer Willie McCovey, sore knees and all, legged out three triples.

Now Reading
In a room full of professional football players Kevin Glenn stands out for all the wrong reasons.
At 5'10" the veteran quarterback is hardly the biggest player. He's not the fastest, and doesn't bowl over tacklers with his strength. What his B.C. Lions' teammates will tell you though is Glenn possesses the most important traits to be successful.
"He's a tough dude," said quarterback Travis Lulay, who has been forced to watch Glenn run the offence while he recovers from off-season shoulder surgery. "You can't play the position for a long time if you're not mentally and physically tough enough to handle it."
Glenn is like a rubber ball. The harder it's thrown against the wall, the harder it bounces back.
The Detroit native has been criticized this year for throwing a league-high 11 interceptions and sometimes not seeing the open man. He also is second in the CFL with 1,797 passing yards, has tossed eight touchdown passes, and is one of the reasons the Lions (4-2) remain in the hunt for a playoff spot in the highly competitive West Division.
"That shows his character," said Canadian receiver Shawn Gore. "He might struggle, he might throw two interceptions, but he's coming back."
"It shows what kind of guy he is because of lot of people might just fail."
Glenn, named the CFL's Offensive Player of the Week, has learned from his rollercoaster career. At 35 years old he's comfortable in his abilities and understands what he can achieve.
"We strive to be perfect," he said. "Everybody is human so you know you're not going to be perfect."
"As long as you strive to be perfect you'll end up on the positive side most of the time."
Glenn even managed some humour when talking about needing a short memory when it comes to throwing interceptions.
"I'm tired of forgetting about them," he said. "As a quarterback you have to be able to get over it."
"It's going to happen. You don't want it to happen as much as it has been happening. I'm not going to be afraid to throw the next one."
Glenn's performance in the Lions' 36-29 victory over the Hamilton Tiger-Cats last week was a snap shot of his season, maybe even his career. He was picked off twice, both deflections, but also threw for 407 yards. It was the seventh time in his career he's thrown for over 400 yards.
At times the Lions' offence coughed and stalled under Glenn. Just when things looked headed to the ditch, Glenn would regain control and steer into the fast lane. He finished the night completing 22 of 36 passes and directed scoring drives of five plays for 97 yards, 10 plays for 65 yards and five plays for 72 yards.
Showing he still had a few tricks up his sleeve, Glenn surprised just about everyone in the building when he tucked the ball under his arm and ran 19 yards for a touchdown himself. It was only the 12th rushing touchdown of his 14-year career and his second on the ground in the last five seasons. He also was elusive in the pocket, stepping away from tacklers to deliver completions.
Head coach Mike Benevides said Glenn has made a career out of proving people wrong. He's still around after other quarterbacks with stronger arms, faster feet and maybe more talent are gone.
"He's a winner," said Benevides. "He is very composed, he's very level headed. He competes.
"What ever stigma he has, he has, but he always overcomes that. What ever he has to do, he finds a way to get it done."
Glenn also understands his role on the Lions. He was brought to Vancouver as a band aide while Lulay heals. Once Lulay is healthy, Glenn will return to his role as a backup.
"That's what you look for in leadership," said Lions' safety J. R. LaRose. "He knew coming in this was Travis's team.
"For now he is our leader. He's the captain of the ship right now."
While Glenn has played centre stage with the Lions this year, Gore has become an important member of the supporting cast. The Bishop's graduate had a season-high five catches for 117 yards against Hamilton. For the season the fifth-year Lion has 14 catches for 248 yards.
Gore made a couple of pretty catches against Hamilton. In the first quarter he reached behind him to make a one-handed grab for a 20-yard gain. In the second quarter he extended himself to make a diving catch and held on to the ball after taking a big hit.
"He's a guy that sometimes gets overlooked because we have so many great receivers," said Glenn. "Sometimes he's that third or fourth guy (and) he doesn't get enough balls.
"When he gets chances he makes plays. He's a very under-rated receiver."
On team with receivers like Emmanuel Arceneaux, Courtney Taylor, Ernest Jackson and even running back Andrew Harris, Gore knows he must be patient.
"I can't say it's frustrating," said the 27-year-old from Toronto. "We have so many guys that can make plays with the ball you have to spread it out."
"It's just about the opportunity to make plays. In an 18-game season it's going to happen."
Benevides said Gore is beginning to become the player the Lions were looking for when they took him 10th overall in the 2010 draft.
"Shawn has looked as good as I have ever seen him," said Benevides. "He's looking faster, more supple."
"He's going to have a stellar season as we continue to grow as an offence."

The important properties are:
The Pythagorean theorem (which is really our definition of distance as discussed below).
The addition theorems which are expressions for and .
The half angle theorem (a consequence of the previous two).
All trigonometric functions depend only on the angle mod .
The law of sines: in the triangle ABC, the ratio of the length AB and AC is the ratio of the sines of the opposite angles: . This is just the fact that both and are equal to AH.
The law of cosines. (see Exercise 3.5 )
The coordinates of the point on the unit circle at angle with center at the origin are ( ) which means .
The tangent line to a circle with center at the origin through is perpendicular to the line from the center to and points toward the axis in the first quadrant. Its direction is given by ( ).
All properties follow from the differential properties of the sine.
For the moment we assume
Then using
We get
These two statements combine to tell us that if we differentiate twice we get ; differentiating three times yields , and four times brings us back to where we started from with .
And we have .
And so we have and further derivatives repeat as (from the start 0 1 0 -1 0 1 0 -1 0 1 0 -1, etc) at argument 0.
This information determines a power series formula for the sine of .
The constant term must be 0; the linear term , the quadratic term 0 the cubic term , and continuing around, all the even terms power terms must be 0, and the odd ones must alternate in sign and otherwise be just like those in the series expansion of .
All this follows because the monomial has all its derivatives 0 at except the k-th which is We can therefore read off the power series for sine from the sequence of derivative values at 0.
We get

We can therefore use the properties of the exponential function to deduce the properties of the trigonometric functions.

Cowgirl in the sand: Patria Jacobs (Photo by Dorit Thies) (Click to enlarge)
Suicide Silence try to look menacing. (Click to enlarge)
Busdriver at the Troubadour
Much like the title of his recent CD, Roadkillovercoat (Epitaph), Busdriver re-purposes the wreckage of the past and fashions it into a cool new fashion statement. The L.A. rapper, a.k.a. Regan Farquhar, spits out a rapid-fire flurry of dazzling, dizzying imagery as he pulls the gauze off your scabs and turns stages into firewood. The mainstream music industry and industry in general withers under his caustically poetic observations, such as They want an everyman milking the oldest gags/Spilling the contents of a Pepsi can on a folded flag and They want someone lowbrow, a philistine/With iron-on irony for Viacoms white honkies. On Less Yess, More Nos, he recites a blurred litany of soccer moms, Fox News, the war in Iraq, Noam Chomsky and George Bush before concluding, We refuse the ruling class/in broadcast antennae headdresses. He looks out balefully over a modern landscape of broken TV sets and pop cultures lame vestiges on the febrile statement of purpose, Ethereal Driftwood, in which he nimbly jumps from the plane wreckage . . . covered in a blanket of ash. His artful surrealism is more truthful than mere journalism. (Falling James)
Lilys at Spaceland
Kurt Heasley has taken a circuitous route back to the present. In 1992, Lilys brandished fuzz-doused guitars, spiraling drum-kit cascades and soft vocals befitting the post-Loveless zeitgeist. Shedding members compulsively, Heasley moved to a sleepy, shambling jangle before settling, albeit for one spellbinding album only, on a blend of FX-damaged etherea and lock-groove drums. Just as suddenly, he took a sharp turn and began chiming kinda Kinks-ish pop, which scored him a hit single in Europe and a major-label deal. His sole Sire release was gloriously overstuffed with hooks (requiring some tracks to run over seven minutes). Since then, Heasley has been nearly methodical in his return to now. He even went Krautock. But his last two albums, garish with giddy melodies and wonky processing like mid-80s castoffs, is, to some, a decline. But live, with a pickup band of his usual Los Angeles cohorts (the Beachwood Sparks/All Night Radio pool), Heasleys disparate tunes and styles will be delivered in uniform blasts of distortion, rhythm and melody. Here, the brilliance of his craft should be radiantly evident. (Bernardo Rondeau)
Die Rockers Die, Madamn Grislee, Finland Station at Pehrspace
Heres a double shot with two of this towns rudest and funniest punk bands, contrasted by the subtler charms of a mellow local combo who are celebrating the release of their debut album. Die Rockers Die have so many songs ranging from Minutemen-like funk-punk (Land of the Free) and claustrophobically fuzzed-out garage-rock (A Much Clearer Vision) to Krautrock spaciness (The Principles of Accounting, Space Jam for Vonnegut) that the prolific Filipino-American group are planning on releasing a 37-track triple CD. Finland Station, meanwhile, recorded the catchiest punk rock anthem of the year, Worst President Ever, a catalog of George W. Bushs most egregious sins that also works as a brutally hilarious presidential lesson, from their debut CD, Eastern Bloc Party. Despite their gory name, Madamn Grislee actually specialize in low-key art-rock on their new CD, Blue Dog. Guitarist Merf Schultzs coolly airy talk-singing nicely evokes Sonic Youths Kim Gordon on All Is Fair in Love and War and Songwriting, while guitarist-drummer Pete Lees echoey vocals on Mirror Move recall the Jesus & Mary Chain, mixed with some Velvet Underground haziness. (Falling James)
Terrors, Heavy Face, Wire Werewolves, Admiral Angry at the Smell
Its exciting when The New Yorker is wrong, even a little bit. Suck it, paragon of elevated standards! The real import of the Smell isnt the venues multifunctional purpose or the hype its driving toward new L.A. punk and its derivatives, or, as a certain glossy rag recently posited, its symbiotic relationship with postcard-from-the-future local band No Age. Really, the Smell is the citys best example of the fact that shared cultural space is still crucial, interweb or no interweb, and the spirit and glory of underage basement shows and punk-house all-nighters are essential to cultivate local scenes and individual investment in good independent music. This week, the Smell hosts an appropriately off-kilter bill, with Terrors, who provide a chugga-chugga kind of folkie psych, sort of like a lazier Animal Collective; the full-bodied histrionics of Heavy Face; Wire Werewolves and Admiral Angry, who both do thrashy near-grindcore, and Obstacle Corpse, whom Ive never heard of, but thats basically the point.

Patria Jacobs at Taix
The former Rubyfish singer Patria Jacobs has been lying low for a long time now, so its good to see that shes finally back, performing a low-profile solo set tonight at Taix. Her 2005 CD, Poison of the Sea (Buniwabbit Records), is a frequently beguiling reminder of her various talents. We could destroy each other, she sings in a deceptively innocent and pure voice on Sweet Pea, her heartbroken message veiled by Corky Hales lulling harp. Stayed Away Too Long is a rueful country lament with properly rustic guitar by I See Hawks in L.A.s Paul Lacques. The Negro Problems Stew co-produced the album and co-wrote its ethereally mesmerizing opening track, Hurricane, where Jacobs coos, I impressed him with my use of Triple A maps, before driving fearlessly right into the approaching storm. The CD includes Indian Burn, a lost 1995 track by Rubyfish, which swirls and seethes within a heat mirage of intriguingly tangled romantic imagery: Voodoo heat like foliage trapped/Tie me up, tie me up, for I must match the furniture . . . those nights when water pipes shake/and its creepier than ever. Its a beautiful kind of creepiness. (Falling James)
The Gene Taylor Blues Band at Cozys Bar & Grill
Are you ready for some Hank III? (Photo by Mike Boles) (Click to enlarge)
Gene Taylor, the hard-charging piano monster who rose to well-deserved renown whipping the 88s for everyone from Canned Heat to the Blasters to the Fabulous Thunderbirds, has only very rarely been afforded a chance to hog the spotlight yet that is precisely where he belongs. He has an icy-hot set of pipes, a formidable sense of rhythm and a keen grasp on the essential spirit of the blues, and his masterly keyboard assaults are second to none; after all, he made his bones as a teenager here, working gigs with such long-lost geniuses as Joe Turner, T-Bone Walker, Pee Wee Crayton and Lowell Fulson (hes also sandwiched in stints with such notable white boys as Doug Sahm and Ronnie Hawkins). This Yuletide spate of action reunites him with longtime Blasters cohorts Bill Bateman, John Bazz and Dave Alvin, and, as Taylor eschews such mundane formalities as a set list, theyre hitting it strictly on instinct. Spontaneity rarely holds such promise. 14058 Ventura Blvd., Sherman Oaks. (Jonny Whiteside)
Joe Strummer tribute at the Key Club
As modern punk rock devolves into defanged corporate-rock careerism and mall-punk-derived rebellion, the late Clash singer Joe Strummer is missed more than ever. Luckily, his music lives on, as does Strummerville, an organization founded in his name by friends and family that benefits struggling musicians. Tonight, some of those friends gather to perform tunes from Strummers various projects (the Clash, the 101ers, the Mescaleros). While one wouldnt normally associate Bauhaus bassist David J with the confrontational sociopolitical intensity of the Clash, hell be on hand, and there are rumors that he may bring along the rest of Love & Rockets for an extremely rare appearance. The multi-talented, if frustratingly erratic Zander Schloss, whos best known for playing bass in the later lineups of the Circle Jerks and the Weirdos and who also appeared alongside Strummer in Alex Coxs self-indulgently sprawling spectacle Straight to Hell, appears with his new band, the Wilderness Years. His solo material, dubbed Schloss Angeles, includes surprisingly enjoyable somber balladry and intricately plucked folk songs. With Hellride, La Plebe and the local rockabilly trio Three Bad Jacks.

SUNDAY, Dec. 23
Wu-Tang Clan at House of Blues
Wu-Tang Clans 8 Diagrams is just out, and, yes, it was worth the wait: Its good, real, real good. In fact, this is one of those rare long-anticipated returns to action by a superstar act that not only ranks with their greatest past stuff but whose quantum conceptual/experiential leaps even trump the groups entire back catalog. RZA, GZA, Ghostface Killah, Raekwon, Method Man, Inspektah Deck, Masta Killa and U-God compose the current lineup, each bringing a wizened depth to their raps, which are in turn chilling, hilarious, ruminative and sorta sweet. In production genius RZAs amazing kung-fu hands, these soul jams and mystery-theater raps are cinematic, quite dramatic and, maybe most importantly, kind of organically avant-garde. (Its as if the RZA simply lacks the ability to make music that doesnt sound different.) They do the guest-superstar thing too, with Dhani Harrison, Erykah Badu, John Frusciante joining in on the single The Heart Gently Weeps, which takes off on George Harrisons original in a surprisingly sentimental way. And the beats? Slamming, of course, but also hugely varied. I.e., theyve done it again, establishing a new state of the art with some extraordinary new shit. (John Payne)

WEDNESDAY, Dec. 26 Suicide Silence at the Knitting Factory
Where so many grindcore bands indiscriminately rub their daemonic putrefaction in your face, Suicide Silence dole theirs out with a trained performers sense of timing, and the result is a higher-quality brutality. The Riverside band are the winners of this years Banned From MTV award thanks to the video for The Price of Beauty, and their appeal lies largely in the air-tight blast beats of drummer Alex Lopez, the oozy low end of bassist Mike Bodkins, and the tireless shred of guitarists Chris Garza and Mark Heylmun, all of which rip consistently throughout their debut full-length, The Cleansing (think Slaughtercult-era Exhumed). Still, its Mitch Luckers vocals, a de-facto fifth instrument that alternates between raspy shriek and Cookie Monster roar, that will permanently dispel visions of sugarplums dancing in your head. With the Faceless, Light This City and Oblige. (Andrew Lentz)

Reverend Horton Heat, Hank III, Nashville Pussy at the Wiltern
As every holiday-music expert knows, nothing says the day after the day after Christmas like a triple bill of redneck cowpunk. Reverend Horton Heat mastermind Jim Heath has an album coming out in January by his new side project, Reverend Organdrum, on which he tries his capable hand at old-school Hammond B-3based soul-funk. Dont be surprised if he throws in a tune or two from it tonight, but expect him to spend the majority of his set concentrating on his signature rockabilly rave-ups (request Bales of Cocaine), as well as stuff from We Three Kings, his spirited 2005 Yuletide set. Backstage at the Gibson before a tribute to Hank Williams Jr. a few weeks back, Shooter Jennings told me that Hank Jr.s son Hank III probably wouldnt be caught dead at a fete for his father. Sad, but true? Nashville Pussy are actually from Atlanta, which isnt to say the handles inaccurate. (Mikael Wood)
Build an Ark at Temple Bar
The many different genres and subgenres that arrive during any given period of time whether it be punk, fusion, drum & bass or bebop tend to run their course and then vanish, to be sorted out later. L.A.-based Build an Ark exists outside this rat race of hits and misses, flavors and varietals, and the proof is Dawn, the 28-piece collectives 2007 full-length. Moving from gentle piano compositions that recall the underrated South African pianist Abdullah Ibrahim to the percussive expansiveness of Alice Coltranes mind-blowing free-jazz work, Build an Arks 10 compositions unroll like silken rugs, and, as the whole reveals itself in all its colorful glory, little patterns start to emerge, be it Joshua Spiegelmans luxurious flute, Miguel Atwood-Fergusons viola, Dwight Tribles vocals or Carlos Niños unobtrusive production. If youd like to experience true spirit this season, Build an Ark will provide it. (Randall Roberts)

Kevin Shields at the Smell
Not the My Bloody Valentine guitarist although with the prospect of a new MBV album, a name change may be in order Kevin Shields tonight kicks off the Smells 10th-anniversary series, which stretches into January. Not a stretch: to say that Kevin Shields, a.k.a. Eva Aguila, is quite simply one of the most polymorphously creative women working in the Los Angeles music scene today. Not only does she tirelessly uphold the fine spazzy DIY standards of the Deathbomb Arc aesthetic on her latest CD, Death of Patience, she also knits and crochets CD and cassette cases for her label, Hate State. Her instrument is a table festooned with effects processors creating a hail of noise blossoming forth like the scent of new sex in the shower, mingling with the miasma of melody that splits the noise perplexingly in half and elevates the experience to another plane entirely. Also: Argumentix, Budweiser Sprite, I.E., Kyle H. Mabson, Teenage Zsa Zsa, Toxic Loincloth. (David Cotner)

IRRI's approach to Intellectual Asset management
Today, more than 45% of the arable land in the world that is sown with major staples such as rice, wheat, and maize is found in low- and lower-middle income countries - where 84% of the world's poor also live. However, these same countries receive only 5% only of the private sector's investment in breeding new plant varieties for major staples.(source: EIB website).
As part of IRRI's mission, we draw on intellectual assets developed by or available to us under the appropriate arrangements and actively seek public-private partnerships to support the discovery, development, and delivery of high-value traits. In doing so, IRRI actively engages with the need to comply with the CGIAR Intellectual Assets policy and monitoring mechanisms. This approach to intellectual asset management expands the options IRRI has available to it to accelerate impact for the benefit of small-scale farmers and increase food and nutritional security. For more information, please see IRRI's Intellectual Property, Commercialization and Communication Policy
Frequently Asked Questions
What is a patent?
A patent is an exclusive right granted for an invention, which is a product or a process that provides, in general, a new way of doing something, or offers a new technical solution to a problem. When a patent is filed, it is a legal means to establish ownership of the invention. Filing for a patent does not in itself limit access, it provides a legal framework for providing options on whether or how the invention may be commercialized.
What is a license?
A license is an official permit to do, use, or own something. A license may be granted by a party ("licensor") to another party ("licensee") as an element of an agreement between those parties. In the case of IRRI, patents – such as variety patents - can be licensed for use by private or public companies within certain parameters established under the CGIAR Intellectual Assets policy. Only the legal owner of the patent may license a variety and determine the terms of its use.
Why does IRRI file patents on genes?
Where appropriate, IRRI draws on intellectual assets to give private companies an incentive to enter into evaluation and license agreements with IRRI. Engaging the private sector in this way opens important opportunities; it provides access to channels to market typically used by the private sector; and expertise and resources to increase the speed and efficiency of developing and introducing high-value rice varieties, through both the private and public sectors.
Filing trait-based patents create a comprehensive foundation for IRRI to enter into licensing agreements for the intellectual property associated with the trait, for research and commercial purposes. If IRRI were to commercialize the trait in the future (once its commercial viability is determined) any license supporting such arrangements would be consistent with the CGIAR Intellectual Assets Policy which seeks to maximize global accessibility and impact. Indeed, by proactively patenting traits, IRRI is able to more effectively manage dissemination and promote a more inclusive use of genetic resources while remaining cognizant of the monetary benefit sharing requirements of the International Treaty on Plant Genetic Resources for Food and Agriculture ("Treaty").
At what stage in the product development process does IRRI patent traits?
Under patent law, an invention must be novel, inventive and useful. IRRI may decide to file for patent protection if a novel trait meets these criteria. Further research and development will typically be required to validate the value of the trait and deliver it through appropriate varieties. This process can be accelerated by entering into appropriate evaluation and licensing agreements with private sector entities. Such arrangements are only entered into when they meet the requirements of the CGIAR intellectual assets policy.
Is information about a patent filing publicly available?
Yes, it is. Within the standard patent filing process, Patent Cooperation Treaty (PCT) patents are automatically published 6 months after filing. IRRI follows the standard process for filing for patents. Furthermore, it also engages with key stakeholders through regular touch points. This includes providing the CGIAR with notice of its patent filings in the Intellectual Asset report submitted to CGIAR.
Does IRRI generate revenue from patents?
In the event that revenue is generated from a patent, a revenue sharing formula will be agreed that takes into account the interests of the technology developers. When the benefit sharing provisions of the Standard Material Transfer Agreement (SMTA) of the International Treaty on Plant Genetic Resources for Food and Agriculture ("Treaty") are triggered, this will require payment into the Benefit Sharing Fund established under the Treaty Benefit Sharing Fund.
Any revenues received by IRRI will be reinvested in research for development in support of our mission.
Do IRRI patents restrict smallholder farmers from accessing high-value varieties?
No, they will not. In fact, smallholder farmers will have clearer access to these traits through the International Treaty on Plant Genetic Resources for Food and Agriculture under the Standard Material Transfer Agreement of the Treaty (SMTA). The Treaty and related SMTA ensures that (1) genetic progress is kept accessible for all (including small farmers) and (2) revenues generated from the exploitation of genetic resources are considered within the framework of the Benefit Sharing provisions of the ITPGRFA.
Do farmers have to pay for patented varieties?
Farmers will not have to pay for traits developed by IRRI and delivered to farmers through the public sector. Where farmers purchase varieties from the private sector, a proportion of the purchase price may be returned to the owners of the germplasm and any intellectual property associated with the development of the variety. Where those traits are licensed by IRRI, the terms of any license will be within the scope of the CGIAR Intellectual Assets policy.
Does a patent restrict access to other landraces in the same region?
Landraces are crops that are genetically diverse, locally adapted and associated with traditional farming systems. IRRI's patents do not limit access to any landrace. Rather they provide a basis for negotiation with the private sector over access and use terms of traits in advanced breeding materials.
If a patent is filed based on a landrace, will smallholder farmers be restricted from accessing landraces and other varieties containing the native trait because of these patents?
No, they will not be restricted. The patents themselves do not in any way restrict others from accessing or using the material from which these traits are derived or other germplasm containing comparable native traits as available under the multilateral system of the Treaty.
Will patented assets still be freely available for public research organizations?
Yes. As part of its long-term licensing strategy, IRRI will grant access to these traits based on the intended commercial purpose and nature of the organization. For public research organizations, including our NARES partners, the traits will be fully available for their use free of cost.
If CGIAR functions based on an "open access" policy, does IRRI violate the CGIAR policy on intellectual property when it files patents on genes?
No. The CGIAR Intellectual Assets Policy permits Centers to apply for patents and/or plant variety protection if they can be shown to be "necessary for the further improvement of such Intellectual Assets or to enhance the scale or scope of impact on target beneficiaries, in furtherance of the CGIAR Vision". IRRI follows the procedures for reporting its patent filings and registrations.

Product News: Cleaning Products & Equipment
Puck Washer accelerates safe, clean handling.
Press Release Summary:
Nov 11, 2010 - Designed to replace manual washing processes, Automated Puck Washer enables CPG manufacturers to wash pucks used on filling lines and helps prevent subsequent transfer of dirt to product. It features 4-cycle process (pre-wash, wash, rinse, and dry) as well as additional features that directly address customer requirements for modular solutions that save production time while protecting employees from repeated exposure to chemicals.
Original Press Release
Simplimatic Offers Faster, Safer Handling with Puck Washer
Press release date: Nov 01, 2010
Pucks provide a stable and effective holder for in-process containers while reducing machine downtime by eliminating the need for multiple changeovers for varied container shapes. But over time, spilled liquids and dust make pucks dirty. Potentially, the soiled pucks could transfer dirt to product, which can negatively affect quality.
Until now, the only way to clean pucks has been by hand, but this is ineffective if not done often enough, soon enough after a spill, and in a thorough and standardized manner. Also, hand washing can cause contact dermatitis due to repeated exposure. And finally, not automating this process increases the likelihood that the dirty pucks will cause downtime and reduced machine efficiency on the line.
The Automated Puck Washer offers a four-cycle process (pre-wash, wash, rinse and dry) and additional features that directly address customer desires for easy-to-integrate modular solutions that save time and energy and protect employees from repeated exposure to chemicals.
"This machine replaces an inefficient and manual washing process that can cause skin irritation," explains Tom DiNardo, President of Simplimatic Automation. "Pucks have enabled companies to take advantage of innovative packaging designs for marketing their products, and with the Automated Puck Washer, they can continue to do this with a better, faster and more cost- effective process."
Simplimatic Automation, Lynchburg, Va., designs and manufactures material-handling and automation systems used in a variety of industries for packaging and assembly. Simplimatic Automation is a portfolio company of Danville Partners, LLC through Danville Automation Holdings, LLC, which is composed of Simplimatic Automation, Advantage Puck Technologies and Multi-Flex® Inc.

Does this use gas to travel? If not then it is not a dirigible. Rolandius (talk - contr) 11:26, 18 August 2008 (UTC)
I believe it doesn't. Looking at the top of it you can see obvious holes in the 'roof'. Gas would easily escape. And - like most other Scourge constructions - it is most likely fueled by the magical crystal. - Dragola 18 Aug
Where does it say that a dirigible must use gas? User:Gourra/Sig2 11:31, 18 August 2008 (UTC)
- Just looking at the definition and how they work. A zeppelin/dirigible/airship uses a gas, less dense than the surrounding air, and fills some kind of cavity. Contrast that with aircraft that use wings or rotors only. If it uses gas then its one type and if it doesn't its a different type. I don't think you would call a zeppelin a type of gyrocopter or a biplane a type of dirigible right? Rolandius (talk - contr) 12:29, 18 August 2008 (UTC)

St. Petersburg, Florida -- A woman is in the hospital with severe injuries after being the victim of a road rage attack. Police are still searching for the suspect.
The incident happened around 10 p.m. Thursday at the intersection of 4th Street South and 4th Avenue South in St. Petersburg.
"We just happened to be going the same way as them, all the way home," says witness Justin Trudeau, who is visiting St. Pete from Michigan.
He says a car and truck in front of him started honking at each other. Both drivers exchanged words, and the truck at one point even tried to cut the car off. That was until they reached the intersection at 4th and 4th.
The woman got out of her car and approached the truck. "She walked up to the driver's side and reached in with her right arm and he grabbed her and pulled her in," says Trudeau.
That's when the driver of the truck pulled the woman about 50 feet before dropping her and then running over her arm.
"She was laying in middle of road and he was down the street," says Trudeau.
The truck driver drove away, and that's what has others in town worried that they could be next.
"It's crazy out there. A lot of people are in a big hurry," says one driver.
For Trudeau, he says he's happy the woman is going to be OK and can only hope the driver of the truck is caught, so something like this doesn't happen again.
Witnesses describe the suspect's truck as an older model Toyota Tacoma, either silver or beige, and was last seen entering westbound I-175 at 4th Street South.
Anyone with information in this case is asked to call police at 727-893-7780, Text-A-Tip to 727-420-8911 or leave a confidential tip at 727-892-5000.
Police also say if you come in contact with an aggressive driver, make sure you try and leave the situation, always make sure your doors are locked. If the aggressive driver doesn't leave you alone, get to a lighted area, and call police.

Department of Transportation officials say Pilgrim Way is closing Monday. Crews plan to put in new storm sewer and pavement and build sidewalks, curb and gutter along the street.
Drivers will be able to get to the high school and middle school on Ridge Rd. The Pilgrim Way intersections and Ridge and Cormier roads will stay open.
People living in the area should expect construction work to go on at night, the DOT says.

For the past 10 months my face has been more oily then ever before. I wash my face once a day with a strong face wash and a whip/pad that also is very strong. Every time I take a picture my smile/face comes out good and the picture is nice but my face is SO oily that it is the first thing noticed. The main spots are my chin, cheek area(mainly upper cheek, a little below my eye area) and in between my eyebrows/forehead. I understand this is my 'T-Zone' prone to extra oil, but mine is a lot more then others I have noticed! Has anyone found any home made remedies or products I could buy/ get from the derm? Thanks so much everyone!

Hey everybody,
Just installed a D2pro9 v3 presoldered with a V4C Clip. After install, I notice that the chip has a red light after turning on the Wii. Not sure what this indicates. My problem is that it takes a very long time for the drive to recognize a recorded disc. I've gone back a few times to readjust the chip but it doesn't seem to help. Also I used the utilidisc and that didn't seem to help.
I also get a clicking drive every once in awhile when i turn the Wii on...
Any help is appreciated and please excuse the lack of experience/knowledge

Awesome! Thank you for the link. Turns out I had to un-short and connect J. After doing so, the chip remained red...however I applied pressure to the chip and noticed that it would turn on immediately. I applied a piece of felt onto the chip to create more pressure (real thin) and it works perfect!
again thanks
