NETL Teams Earn Secretary of Energy Achievement Awards
On October 27, Secretary of Energy Stephen Chu honored the National Energy Technology Laboratory (NETL) and several partner agencies with two Secretary of Energy Achievement Awards, the highest nonmonetary awards an employee or contractor can receive from DOE. NETL and its partners will be recognized for contributions to two significant environmental efforts in 2010: the Deepwater Horizon oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico and DOE's remediation activities at the Hanford nuclear production site. NETL was recognized for its swift and effective response to the Deepwater Horizon oil spill, perhaps the worst environmental disaster to have occurred in the United States. The Incident Command's Flow Rate Technical Group/ Nodal Analysis Team was led by NETL's Dr. George Guthrie and staffed by researchers from NETL, Los Alamos National Laboratory, Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory, Pacific Northwest National Laboratory, Oak Ridge National Laboratory, and the National Institute of Standards and Technology. This multiagency effort was critical to estimating the rate of oil flowing into the Gulf and, in turn, to developing options to cap the well. Their analysis guided key decisions, helping to speed the ultimate solution and reduce the environmental cost of the disaster. At the Hanford Site in the state of Washington, nine nuclear reactors and their associated facilities produced plutonium for our nation's defense during World War II and throughout the Cold War. Today, the site is home to one of the most complex and challenging environmental clean-up projects in our nation's history. An NETL team of recognized experts in computational fluid dynamics evaluated Bechtel National Inc.'s (BNI's) pulse-jet mixing vessel design to ensure that the system is safe, secure, and sound. The vessel was developed for the waste treatment and immobilization plant that BNI is designing and building at the site. The plant will be the world's first chemical processing facility capable of turning radioactive liquid waste into a stable glass form suitable for safe, permanent disposal. The pulse-jet mixing system is designed to safely process the 53 million gallons of liquid nuclear waste stored in aging tanks at the site today.
Vacuum arc remelting (VAR) is a crucial step in creating metals and alloys with the advanced properties needed for the aerospace, power generation, defense, medical, and nuclear industries. The problem is that the metal ingots produced occasionally contain defects, but who can see within the enclosed crucible of the furnace to know what causes these defects? The new electric current locator (ECL) can "see" where eyes cannot. Developed under an agreement between NETL and the Specialty Metals Processing Consortium, the ECL tracks the positions of the electric arcs inside the VAR furnace in real-time. Knowing where the arcs are shows how energy is being distributed to the molten metal during the remelting process. "Seeing" the arcs is a first step toward controlling them and thereby controlling the melting process, which is necessary for consistently defectfree materials. Initially envisioned as a monitoring device for processes such as VAR, the ECL technology can easily be retrofitted to existing furnaces. The technology has been successfully applied to an industrial VAR during commercial production of a titanium alloy, during which some previously unreported aspects of arc behavior were identified and described in publications. For instance, the VAR showed that different patterns of arc distribution can arise for different melts, even though the same alloy is being melted using the same control program. These differences were not detectable by previous furnace controls. A patent application for the ECL has been filed, and NETL is looking for commercial partners to refine the technology and license it for commercial applications.

Dr. Jairo Valdes Ortiz, a Fulbright Scholar and ORISE (Oak Ridge Institute for Science & Education) student at NETL in 2010, won the best student paper award at the Materials Science and Technology (MS&T) 2011 Conference and Exhibition, held October 16-20, 2011, in Columbus, Ohio. The paper, titled "On the Formulation of a Freckling Criterion for Ni-Based Superalloy Vacuum Arc Remelting Ingots," discussed his work at NETL on predicting the presence of "freckling" or defects observed in large superalloy ingots used to create gas turbine parts. The results of this research could lower the chance of defects when casting the ingots, thus decreasing the number of ingots rejected during the process. During vacuum arc remelting (VAR), metal ingots produced occasionally contain defects, which render them unusable. In experiments using a tilted surface on which the nickelbased alloy could solidify within the VAR, Dr. Ortiz determined that the tilted surface helps change the orientation of channels that generally lead to freckling. By controlling how energy passes through the alloy during the melting process, he made an important step toward defect-free materials. The MS&T partnership of four leading materials societies— ACerS, AIST, ASM, and TMS—brings together scientists, engineers, students, policy makers, suppliers, and more to discuss current research and technical applications and to shape the future of materials science and technology. Dr. Ortiz participated in the ORISE program while pursuing his Ph.D. in materials science at West Virginia University.
Methods for generating synthesis gas from simple hydrocarbons such as methane routinely involve the use of a catalyst. However, the high sulfur and aromatic content of fuels such as diesel poses a major challenge, since these components can deactivate conventional catalysts. Unfortunately, no economically feasible reforming catalyst is available for converting diesel and coal-based fuels into hydrogen-rich synthesis gas necessary for use in solid oxide fuel cells. To minimize catalyst poisoning while maintaining high activity, NETL researchers developed the novel idea of incorporating active metals into the crystal structure of a thermally stable material: pyrochlore. The unique crystalline structure of pyrochlore allows for chemical modifications tailored to specific fuels and reaction conditions. Development of this technology has resulted in two patent-pending inventions, one for utilization of pyrochlore catalysts in hydrocarbon reforming processes and the other for a method of optimizing the performance of pyrochlore catalysts for a particular application or specific operating condition. Together, these inventions help overcome the limitations of current catalysts by efficiently reforming diesel fuel while maintaining thermal stability and resistance to sulfur, aromatics, and carbon formation. The commercial potential of these inventions has recently been recognized through the execution of an exclusive licensing agreement with the newly-formed Pyrochem Catalyst Corporation. This agreement marks the first time that an NETL-licensed technology has been used as a basis for the creation of a start-up company. The successful commercialization of pyrochlore-type catalysts for reforming hydrocarbon fuels may lead to the creation of high-technology jobs. Contact: David Berry, 304-285-4430
Schematic depiction of the invented detection process in accordance with features of the present invention. An array of Surface Acoustic Wave (SAW) sensors can be used where each sensor semi continuously monitors emissions of a particular heavy metal or metalloid. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency issue a national regulation for mercury removal from coal-derived flue and fuel gases on December 21. In addition, many states are promulgating their own rules for mercury emissions from coal-burning power plants. These rules typically require 90 percent or greater levels of capture of mercury. The levels of mercury in untreated coal-derived flue gas are on the order of 1 part-per-billion (ppb) by volume. Ninety percent removal requires treated flue gas with levels of 0.1 ppb, which in a dirty complex matrix can be difficult to measure, especially on a near continuous basis. Methods for detection of mercury in coal-derived gas streams are needed to insure compliance with emission regulations. The potential market for mercury analyzers in application to coal-utilizing facilities in the United States is estimated to be in excess of $100 million. This can facilitate the removal of mercury upstream of a particulate collection device such as an ESP or baghouse, as well as capture in a wet scrubber. Photo-deposition can also serve as the basis for pre-concentration and detection of small quantities of mercury within various gas streams, through mass, colorimetric, conductivity, UV absorption or UV fluorescence sensors. The technology, "Semicontinuous detection of mercury in gases," is described in U.S. Patent 8,069,703 issued in December 2011 and is a spin-off from the GP-254 Process. These findings are summarized in recent papers in the journals Industrial & Engineering Chemistry Research, Fuel Processing Technology, and Energy & Fuels. Contacts: Evan J. Granite, 412-386-4607 and Henry W. Pennline, 412-386-6013
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency issued a national regulation for mercury removal from coal-derived flue and fuel gases in excess of 90 percent on December 21. Levels of mercury in untreated coal-derived flue gas are on the order of 1 part-per-billion (ppb) by volume; 90 percent removal requires treated flue gas with levels of 0.1 ppb, which can be difficult to obtain. The predominant species of mercury in low-rank coal-derived flue gases is the elemental form, Hg(0), which, because of its relative inertness and insolubility in water, is challenging to remove and not captured efficiently by many activated carbons. Mercuric chloride is highly soluble in water and is more readily removed by carbon. A catalyst that can oxidize elemental mercury to mercuric chloride (or another compound) would be of tremendous value. A catalyst would enable mercury to be captured by existing air pollution control devices (APCDs) present in coal-burning power plants. These existing APCDs include wet scrubbers for acid gas removal, as well as electrostatic precipitators (ESPs) and bag house filters for particulate removal. Several materials have been previously proposed as catalysts for oxidation of mercury including palladium, gold, platinum, SCR catalysts, fly ash, activated carbons, and halogen compounds. NETL researchers recently discovered that iridium and "Thief" carbons are excellent catalysts for the oxidation of mercury in flue gas. These findings are summarized in recent papers in the journals Environmental Science & Technology, Energy & Fuels, and Platinum Metals Review, and in several U.S. patents. The "Thief" carbons are active for the oxidation of mercury and, if desired, are cheap enough to be a disposable catalyst. The catalyst technology is available for license and is a spin-off from the 2009 R&D 100 Award-winning Thief Process developed at NETL. Contacts: Evan J. Granite, 412-386-4607 and Henry W. Pennline, 412-386-6013
Parr autoclave system used in corrosion measurement. Corrosion behavior of alloys in low-conductivity environments using reliable, time-efficient in-situ electrochemical methods has recently been studied by researchers from the Pennsylvania State University and NETL. They have determined the corrosion rates of carbon steels in supercritical CO2 undersaturated with water, a low electric conductivity environment, using three independent electrochemical methods (linear polarization, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, and electrochemical frequency modulation). The conditions of the corrosion tests were at 50 °C and 10 MPa with a water concentration of 2000 ppm, half the water saturation limit for supercritical CO2. The results were repeated in duplicative tests that generated reproducible results. This type of electrochemical measurement has never before been performed in this environment. It was accomplished in part by the innovative use of a highly conductive film as the electrolyte that allowed for measurements to be carried out in the otherwise very low electric conductivity environment. With further development, the results could be used not only to predict alloy performance in these environments but could lead to a new class of corrosion sensors for monitoring alloys' corrosion performance in low electric conductivity environments encountered in fossil-fueled power plants and in CO2 transport and storage facilities.

Novel Process and Device for Rapid Gas Hydrate Formation
The results of recent research at NETL show that rapid and continuous formation of methane (natural gas) hydrate, as well as other gasderived hydrates, is achievable. This technology will provide a safer and potentially lower-cost alternative for natural gas storage and transportation. Methane hydrate formation typically takes anywhere from six hours to several days or weeks under laboratory conditions. However, NETL's rapid hydrate formation process allows instantaneous and continuous methane hydrate formation using a novel nozzle. This patent-pending technology produces gas hydrates from a mixture of water and a hydrate-forming gas. The two-phase mixture is created within the spray nozzle. The mixture is subsequently sprayed into a reaction vessel, under pressure and temperature conditions suitable for gas hydrate formation. Because the reaction zone pressure is less than the mixing zone pressure, the expansion of the hydrate-forming gas in the mixture provides a degree of cooling and optimal mixing, while allowing for improved gas solubility and heat transfer. Gas hydrates have the potential to provide a tremendous cost savings over the transport of compressed and liquefied natural gas. In addition, this technology may be applicable to carbon dioxide sequestration, separation of mixed gases (e.g., natural gas streams containing carbon dioxide and other gases impacting higher methane content), cold energy storage, transportation fuels, and desalination processes. Also, reduced capital and operational costs for small to mid-sized gas fields make the adoption of gas hydrate more attractive to commercial interests. NETL is currently seeking collaborative research and licensing partners for this technology. Contacts: Charles Taylor, and Thomas Brown
NETL researcher Dr. Michael Buric & Dr. Steven Woodruff assembling the gas composition sensor. A unique gas composition sensor emerging from collaboration between NETL and the University of Pittsburgh, a participant in the NETL-Regional University Alliance, is being evaluated for commercial gas turbine operation at the GE Gas Turbine Test Laboratory facility in Greenville, SC. Development of the sensor is a principal activity under a Cooperative Research and Development Agreement between GE and NETL. The sensor features a metal-lined capillary sampling tube that acts like a mirrored waveguide to greatly enhance weak Raman light scattering signals, allowing near-instantaneous analysis of gaseous mixtures with high-accuracy. Real-time gas composition analysis will allow feed forward data to control systems for power equipment such as gas turbines and fuel cells to achieve optimal performance with such fuels as coal-derived syngas, coal-bed methane, biogas, and natural gas.

Click for larger image NETL energy analysts have produced for the public a set of Sankey diagrams based on data obtained from the Annual Energy Review 2010 recently released by the U.S. Energy Information Administration. Graphically representing both quantity and direction, the diagrams place in perspective the relative contributions of major domestic energy sources as well as the flow of fossil fuels around the world. The "Estimated U.S. Energy Use in 2010" flow diagram shows the quantity of fuels used to drive each of the sectors in the United States. Overall, 83 percent of the primary energy consumed in the U.S. is from fossil fuels and downstream, due to conversion efficiencies, 89 percent of the total energy delivered to the end-used sectors is derived from fossil fuels. The global Energy Related Flow Diagrams show major international flows of various fuels and identify who the major exporters/importers are in the global fuel market.

German hackers say old technique can beat Apple's Touch ID
A high-quality scan of a person';s finger and a bit of latex -- an old technique -- can defeat Touch ID, the Chaos Computer Club claims
IDG News Service - Apple's Touch ID authentication system can be defeated using a well-honed technique for creating a latex copy of someone's fingerprint, according to a German hacking group.
The Chaos Computer Club (CCC), which hosts an annual hacking conference and publishes computer security research, wrote on its blog that their experiment shows that fingerprint authentication "should be avoided."
Apple introduced Touch ID with its latest high-end iPhone 5S on Sept. 10. A person's "fingerprint is one of the best passcodes in the world. It's always with you, and no two are exactly alike," according to the company's website.
A hacker who goes by the name Starbug found that while Touch ID scans at a higher resolution, it can be beaten by increasing the resolution of the victim's fingerprint.
The CCC posted a video of what it wrote is a successful attack. Faking the print involves photographing the victim's fingerprint at 2400 DPI. The image is inverted and laser printed at 1200 DPI onto a transparent sheet using a "thick toner setting," according to the CCC.
Pink latex milk or white wood glue is smeared into the pattern created the toner. After it cures, a sliver of latex is lifted from the sheet, and blowing on it gives a bit of moisture like that on a human finger. It then can be placed on the iPhone's fingerprint sensor, the CCC wrote.
The technique is not new. "This process has been used with minor refinements and variations against the vast majority of fingerprint sensors on the market," the CCC wrote. Apple officials did not have an immediate comment on the CCC's findings.
Security experts have long warned that fingerprint authentication should not be solely relied upon, but rather used in concert with other technologies. Photos of fingerprints and molds have successfully bypassed fingerprint checks.
Touch ID is intended to reduce the number of times a person must enter a passcode, but Apple still requires a passcode in some circumstances, such as restarting the phone and if the devices hasn't been unlocked in two days.
Changes to the fingerprint settings also require a passcode, which can be configured to be longer and more complex than four digits.

Australias only Aston Martin One-77 at the 2012 motor show - 12th October 2012
The One-77 was first revealed to the world in concept form three years ago".
Australian International Motor Show press release
Aston Martin One-77 to come out of hiding for AIMS 2012.
The Australian International Motor Show can confirm that one of the most exclusive vehicles in the world, an Aston Martin One-77 will take centre stage at this years Show at the Sydney Convention & Exhibition Centre.
The only Aston Martin One-77 in Australia and one of just 77 in the world, this vehicle is considered by many to be one of the most sought-after and expensive supercars on earth, initially costing over 1.2 million pounds.
Hand-crafted in England, the One-77 is billed by Aston Martin as its definitive sports car a vehicle that epitomises everything Aston Martin is from technology, hand-craftsmanship of the hand rolled aluminium panels to the attention to detail. I am very proud and excited that an Aston Martin One-77 will be on display at the 2012 Australian International Motor Show, said Russ Tyrie, Show Director.
The One-77 was first revealed to the world in concept form three years ago, and this year, Australians will be able to see one in all its glory after its owner has generously allowed for it to be on public display, only months after taking possession.
A thrilling fusion of advanced technology and stunning design, the One-77 combines a carbon fibre monocoque structure and aluminium body panels with a 7.3 litre naturally aspirated V12 engine producing 559kW and 750Nm. The two door sports coupe achieves 100km/h in just 3.7 seconds and is capable of reaching speeds in excess of 350km/h.
In the creation of the One-77, Aston Martin wanted to create a car closer to art than the automobile and it has certainly achieved that, said Tyrie. The One-77 is unique, it is like no other Aston Martin or supercar ever engineered and we are confident it will be a talking point of this years Australian International Motor Show, said Tyrie.
The 2012 Australian International Motor Show will be held at the Sydney Convention & Exhibition Centre, Darling Harbour and will open daily at 10am from October 19 to 28.
For further information about the Show and to buy tickets online to save, visit the AIMS 2012 website.
Aston Martin DB5 Starring in James Bonds Skyfall Movie - 16th February 2012
From Bondi Beach, Sydney, Australia to the UK, Hollywood and beyond, the world knows of the James Bond franchise, as well as his famous cars... especially the Aston Martin.
Australia's most famous beach is understood to be home to at least a dozen Aston Martin's, but we know some owners like to hide they away, rather than to show them off, with some locals preferring to hide their wealth these days.
A bit of history... It was the Aston Martin Silver Birch that featured in the James Bond movie Goldfinger.
It is considered to be the most famous car in the world. Ok, so the car has never received an Oscar or other movie award, the DB5 has continued on since Goldfinger to enjoy the spotlight in a number of James Bond movies.
1964s Goldfinger movie spotlighted the DB5 as a complete spy control center. It sported an awesome machine gun, an ejector seat, chariot-style slicing wheel and a revolving license plate. It went on to star in such great James Bond films such as Thunderball, GoldenEye, Tomorrow Never Dies and Casino Royale.
007 just wouldnt be the same with the appearance of such as famous co-star as the Aston Martin DB5. It has been seen on the latest James Bond movie set, shooting scenes for Skyfall. It will be the first time that the DB5 has appeared complete with super spy gear since Sean Connery manned the wheel in the movie Goldfinger.
The latest Aston Martin DB5 has kept its exceptional styling.
Under the hood quite a bit of work has been done. It hosts a DOHC straight six engine that gives more than 400 horsepower. Telescopic shock absorbers keep the drive smooth, and it can go from 0 to 60 miles per hour in 7.1 seconds.
Additional updates include new 15 wheels, Girling disc brakes and twin hydraulic brake servos. The Aston Martin DB5 Vantage received different camshafts and 3 Weber carburetors to further enhance its performance. This tie they have also added electric windows.
Finally, a convertible is also available with an additional steel hard top.
Collectors will be checking out both the car and new Bond movie very closely.

Psycho-Physical Development Mission Statement
At Seattle Prep, physical education and health are formal and important parts of the general curriculum. The department is dedicated to developing the physical abilities and character of each student in order to foster healthy and productive lives. We seek to incorporate the concept of "persona curae" into the core of the physical education of our students by developing the students' mental, social, physical, emotional and intellectual abilities. The PPD faculty strives to instill in each student a lifelong appreciation of health and physical wellbeing. It is our goal to enhance the daily lives of our students.
Psycho-Physical Development (PPD) is a holistic approach to health and physical education. The semester course focuses on anatomy, physiology, fitness, biomechanics, motor learning, and the sociology of play, game and sport. Students participate in both classroom and gym activities. Evaluation is based on participation, lab work, quizzes, tests, and a semester project.
Sophomore students take one semester of a wellness-based classroom course. Students explore current health issues through class discussion, guest speakers, class activities and projects. Students reflect upon and assess their behaviors as related to their personal health and well-being, so they are capable of making informed choices. Evaluation is based on participation, an individual project, and two comprehensive exams.
Students are required to take two semesters of a physical activity courses. These co-ed activity courses are designed to promote exercise and sportsmanship. Students participate in a wide variety of traditional and non-traditional team and individual sports. There is an effort to reinforce concepts learned in the freshman Health and Exercise Science course. Students are evaluated on cooperation and participation.
Weight training is offered to seniors as a single semester elective.

Coming October 8 : Lee Ranaldo & The Dust - 'Last Night On Earth' LP/CD/digital album
photograph by John Von PamerOn October 8 (October 7 in the UK and Europe), Matador will be releasing 'Last Night On Earth', the album from Sonic Youth founding member Lee Ranaldo and The Dust (drummer Steve Shelley, guitarist Alan Licht and bassist Tim Lüntzel). A more intense, expansive work than 2012's 'Between The Times & The Tides', 'Last Night' -- while certainly darker in tone & lyrical content than its immediate predecessor, is the sort of dizzying electric guitar clinic that ranks amongst the best from any era. After an exhaustive stretch of domestic and international touring (with more to come --- see below) Lee & The Dust have formed a powerhouse unit, and we're confident the results of these Echo Canyon West sessions will impress & inspire for months to come, if not far longer. Here's an initial sample in the album's "Lecce, Leaving" : (below : Lee discusses the album with WNYC "Soundcheck"'s John Schaefer) PREORDER 'Last Night On Earth' on double LP or single CD from the Matador Store PREORDER 'Last Night On Earth' from iTunes here leeranaldo.com Upcoming dates after the jump : North America : Tue-Oct-08 Hudson, NY Club Helsinki Wed-Oct-09 Buffalo, NY Tralf Music Hall Fri-Oct-11 Toronto, ONT Horseshoe Tavern Sat-Oct-12 Detroit, MI Trinosophes Sun-Oct-13 Chicago, IL Empty Bottle Mon-Oct-14 Madison, WI High Noon Saloon Tue-Oct-15 Minneapolis, MN The Triple Rock Thu-Oct-17 Iowa City, IA Gabe's Fri-Oct-18 Omaha, NE The Waiting Room Sat-Oct-19 Lawrence, KS The Bottleneck Sun-Oct-20 St. Louis, MO The Firebird Tue-Oct-22 Nashville, TN Exit/In Wed-Oct-23 Asheville, NC The Grey Eagle Fri-Oct-25 Brooklyn, NY The Bell House Europe : sun 10-Nov-2013 NL GRONINGEN - VERA Mon 11-Nov-2013 DE HAMBURG - KAMPNAGEL Wed 13-Nov-2013 DE COLOGNE - GEBAUDE 9 Thu 14-Nov-2013 FR METZ - acoustic show at le musée de la cour d'or Fri 15-Nov-2013 FR METZ - CAVEAU DES TRINITAIRES - MUSIQUE VOLANTE FESTIVAL sun 17-Nov-2013 CH LAUSANNE - LE ROMANDIE Mon 18-Nov-2013 FR FEYZIN - Epicerie Moderne Wed 20-Nov-2013 FR VILLENEUVE D'ASQ - FESTIVAL TOUR DE CHAUFFE AT LA FERME D'EN HAUT Thu 21-Nov-2013 UK LONDON - THE GARAGE Fri 22-Nov-2013 UK CAMBER SANDS - ATP FESTIVAL at Camber Sands Sat 23-Nov-2013 FR PARIS - Boulogne Billancourt BB MIX FESTIVAL Mon 25-Nov-2013 FR POITIERS - CONFORT MODERNE Tue 26-Nov-2013 FR TOURS - TEMPS MACHINE North America again: Fri-Dec-06 Portland, OR Doug Fir Lounge Sat-Dec-07 Vancouver, BC Biltmore Cabaret Sun-Dec-08 Seattle, WA Barboza Wed-Dec-11 San Francisco, CA The Chapel Fri-Dec-13 Los Angeles, CA The Echo"A solo record works best when you feel like you're opening a window into somebody's life, experiencing the things they're going through or thinking about, places they're seeing, through their eyes.

Career Cut Short
Dutch painter Vincent van Gogh, suffering from loneliness and depression, dies of a self-inflicted gunshot wound in Auvers-sur-Oise, France. His artistic career lasted only 10 years. Van Gogh's work is considered among the best of the Post-Impressionists and powerfully influential to the Expressionist movement.

The Police, Zenyatta Mondatta
Featured Album
Walking the fine line between experimentation and exhaustion
The third in a series of titles in Pig Esperanto, meaning essentially nothing, though always a topic for lively discussion on Internet message boards. (One thing is for sure: it is the source of the name of the beloved near-perfect race horse Zenyatta, owned by A&M Records' co-founder Jerry Moss.) As an album, it's a mixed bag: some great fast reggae ("Don't Stand So Close to Me"), the energetic pop of "Canary in a Coalmine," and the lush "When the World is Running Down" are among some of the band's best songs. But experimentation gives way to exhaustion on other tracks: Sting's "Man in a Suitcase" appears to be both about and a symptom of their back-breaking touring schedule. "Voices Inside My Head" is a workmanlike sketch using African-sounding guitar and vocals mixed way back to resemble a chant; Middle Eastern motifs emerge in Summers' solo in "Bombs Away," a song by Copeland that's prescient in its assessment of "unpaid bills in Afghanistan hills." The Middle Eastern musical theme is also evident in "Behind My Camel," a Summers-composed instrumental evoking the North African desert, but its relevance is just a mirage. The coup de grace (to use a phrase in Sting's frequently-favored French) is the band's first top 10 U.S. hit: "De Do Do Do, De Da Da Da." No relation to the German band Trio's 1982 new wave hit, "Da Da Da," though the point should be made. Did radio programmers appeal to the lowest common denominator of their audience's intelligence? Weren't they right? In the 30 years since, the deepest thinkers at the Academy for the Study of Rock Lyrics have deconstructed, reconstructed and post-modernized these lyrics, and have come to conclude that "De Do Do Do" means "De Do Do Do." And so forth.

Linux has become a key foundation for supporting today's rapidly growing IT environments. Linux is being used to deploy business applications and databases, trading on its reputation as a low-cost operating environment. For many IT organizations, Linux is a mainstay for deploying Web servers and has evolved from handling basic file, print, and utility workloads to running mission-critical applications and databases, physically, virtually, and in the cloud. As Linux grows in importance in terms of value to the business, managing Linux environments to high standards of service quality — availability, security, and performance — becomes an essential requirement for business success.

Indianapolis Colts: 4 Colts Ready for Breakout Seasons in 2012
By (Senior Writer) on June 20, 2012
1,246 reads
Al Messerschmidt/Getty Images
Every year, unknown or struggling players break out and dominate the NFL.
Late draft selections surprise the world and show off their talent, struggling veterans revamp their game and start to play well, while rookies prove their doubters wrong.
For the Indianapolis Colts, the situation is the same.
The Colts used their draft picks to upgrade on offense, drafting a pair of tight ends, quarterbacks and wide receivers, as well as drafting one running back. With seven players at the four main offensive positions, it's safe to say some will succeed and some will be busts.
There are also some veterans and other young players looking to prove themselves.
Which Colts will break out and surprise people in 2012? Read on to find out.
T.Y Hilton, Wide Receiver
T.Y Hilton runs with the ball in Colts OTAs.

In college, T.Y Hilton simply dominated. While he wasn't at a great football college, he can definitely play. More importantly, he can break out in 2012.
Hilton ran a 4.34 in the 40-yard dash, and he has incredible speed. He runs crisp routes and has great hands, and is always looking to add yardage after the catch. He is small, but he is very athletic.
Indianapolis will have Andrew Luck playing quarterback, who should be able to find Hilton and get him the ball. Luck can throw a deep ball, and he does have deep targets, such as Reggie Wayne.
However, he doesn't have great short targets.
At Stanford, Luck picked defenses apart with short drives, but he also threw a great deep ball. Hilton can get open anywhere on the field, and if a secondary takes a break for one play, he will burn you. He can run a short route and turn it into a long play, or he can burn you deep with his speed.
If Luck makes a mistake, Hilton can bail him out. He can jump up for a ball and make catches in traffic, and he can still pick up yardage after the catch. As long as he continues to do what he's been doing in college, Hilton will dominate.
With a great quarterback in Andrew Luck, there's no reason to expect that Hilton can't be a great player. If he plays enough and gets opportunities to show Chuck Pagano what he can do, Hilton could even be a sleeper candidate for Rookie of the Year.
He will break out in 2012.
Reggie Wayne, Wide Receiver
Joe Robbins/Getty Images
Reggie Wayne may be a wide receiver, but he and T.Y Hilton have two completely different styles.
Hilton is an athletic receiver from a small school trying to prove that he can break out and play with the big boys. Meanwhile, Wayne has always been a top tier receiver, but his numbers declined heavily in 2011.
He caught 36 less passes for two fewer touchdowns and 395 less yards than he did in 2010.
Of course, there are plenty of explanations.
The Colts had inconsistent quarterback play all year, and a lot of bad passes were thrown in his direction.
Sometimes, it seemed like the QB completely forgot about him.
Wayne is still a great player, and he is only 33, so he still has a few years left in him. He and Peyton Manning developed great chemistry and dominated. Wayne found ways to get open and catch passes. He has great hands, and he can catch balls in traffic.
If Andrew Luck has a hard time settling into the NFL, he'll have a veteran wide receiver helping him out. By the end of the year, Wayne will put up numbers like he did in 2010 and dominate.
Cassius Vaughn, Cornerback

As you may know, the Colts have had problems with their secondary.
Injuries have plagued the back of the defense, and the Colts don't seem to have two capable cornerbacks who can play every down. Jerraud Powers will be one of them, but there are questions as to who will start on the other side.
There are even more questions about who would play if Powers got injured.
Vaughn didn't get much playing time in Denver, but he did intercept one pass and return it for a touchdown. He also returned a kickoff for a touchdown in 2010, and recorded 20 tackles in 2011. However, he didn't get experience as an every-down corner.
In Indianapolis, he may get an opportunity. Vaughn has tremendous speed in the open field, so he could definitely compete for a spot as the starting return man, which is something the Colts need. Vaughn can also make a tackle and is great against the run.
As long as he heals well from his injury (he broke his fibula), he should win the kick-return job and get a lot of time at corner. He'll be able to break out and dominate in Indianapolis.
Andrew Luck, Quarterback
Joe Robbins/Getty Images
This one may surprise you—or it may be completely expected.
Luck dominated at Stanford and has all the qualities an NFL starter needs. He can definitely dominate in the NFL, and he can make an impact and even lead the Colts to the playoffs in 2012.
The Stanford star didn't have great wide receivers in college, although he did have tight end Coby Fleener. Fleener was drafted in the second round by the Colts, and since he and Luck played very well in college, they should continue to dominate in the NFL.
In addition, Luck will have Wayne, a proven veteran with great hands. He also has the speedy T.Y Hilton, Dwayne Allen, Donnie Avery, Austin Collie, Quan Cosby and a ton of other young receivers.
While his receivers should break out, so will Luck. The former Stanford QB isn't afraid to take a hit, and he will stand his ground in the pocket and make an accurate throw. He can throw a great deep ball and he can also throw a good short pass. He reads defenses very well and can throw the ball on the run.
Once the team learns how to play with each other, they should be fine.
In fact, they'll start to dominate and truly break out.

Wanted: killer of deer with valuable sperm
His name was Peabody.
And he had super sperm.
Now the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission officials want to know who killed him, reports the Sun Sentinel.
The prized, 12-point white-tailed deer was killed and decapitated at a game farm in Union County. The owner is offering a $20,000 reward for information that will lead to the arrest and conviction of the guilty party.
The deer was valuable. A single test tube of Peabody's sperm sold for $10,000.
How many males can claim that?

The study was published in the scientific journal PLOS ONE on August 28, 2013.

Asthma is a disease, caused by hypersensitivity the airways to various stimuli. It is a chronic condition with acute exacerbations. In this country, there are approximately 28 million asthmatics; nearly one third of them (8.6 million) are children under 18 years of age. Asthma can be life-threatening if not properly managed.
Asthma is characterized by excessive sensitivity of the lungs to various stimuli. Asthma breathing problems usually happen in "episodes" or "attacks". An asthma episode is a series of events that result in narrowed airways. These include: swelling of the lining , tighten of muscles, and increased secretion of mucus in the airway. The narrowed airway is responsible for the difficulty in breathing with the familiar "wheeze".
Triggers range from viral infection to allergies, to irritating gases and particles in the air. The most common form of asthma is "allergic asthma" so if you have allergies you more than likely have allergic asthma.
Each person reacts differently to the factors that may trigger asthma, including some respiratory infections; colds; allergic reactions to pollen, mold, animal dander, feathers, dust food1 and cockroaches; vigorous exercise; exposure to cold air or sudden temperature change; cigarette smoke; excitement, and stress. It is very important you know what your triggers are.
Asthma therapy includes efforts to reduce the underlying inflammation and to relieve or prevent symptomatic airway narrowing. Such efforts should lead to reduction in airway hyper responsiveness and help prevent irreversible airway obstruction
The two classes of medications used to treat asthma are bronchodilators and anti-inflammatory agents.
Mti-inflammatory agents interrupt the development of bronchial inflammation and have a prophylactic or preventive action. They may also modulate or terminate ongoing inflammatory reaction in the airways. These agents include corticosteroids, commonly sodium or commonly-like compounds, and other anti-inflammatory compounds.
Bronchodilators act principally to dilate the airways by relaxing bronchial smooth muscle. They include bet adrenergic agonists, methylxanthines, and anticholinergics Asthma is the leading serious chronic illness among children. Most children have mild to moderate problems and their illness can be controlled by treatment at home or in the doctor's office. For some children the illness becomes a formidable problem causing numerous visits to the hospital emergency room and multiple hospitalizations

Including interracial dating ban By JEFFREY COLLINS Associated Press Writer COLUMBIA, S.C. (AP) -- Bob Jones University has apologized for racist policies including a one-time ban on interracial dating that wasn't lifted until nine years ago and its unwillingness to admit black students until 1971. The private fundamentalist Christian school that was founded in 1927 said its rules on race were shaped by culture instead of the Bible, according to a statement posted Thursday on the universi...

Obituary: Jesse Helms

Sat Jul 05th 2008, 04:56 PM
Harold Jackson guardian.co.uk, Friday July 4, 2008 Senator Jesse Helms, member of the US Senate's foreign relations committee for two decades and its chairman from 1995 to 2001, has died at the age of 86. To echo this newspaper's memorable comment on the death of William Randolph Hearst, it is hard even now to think of him with charity. From his earliest years, Helms's attitudes recalled those of an earlier southern bigot, Theodore Bilbo of Mississippi, who so outraged his Senate colleagues, t...

Jesse Helms dies and so should his HIV ban

Fri Jul 04th 2008, 12:26 PM
I�m in Yosemite National Park, but just learned that former North Carolina Senator Jesse Helms has died at the age of 86. I am not sad. Helms did more damage to the gay rights movement than any other single person I can think of in the Senate. One particular piece of legislation Helms is responsible for is his infamous HIV travel ban, known as the "Helms Amendment" which outlawed people with HIV from visiting the United States or immigrating to the United States. The U.S. is now one of only 13 ...

Revising HIV's History
Posted by
Sun Jun 29th 2008, 03:02 PM
(cross-posted from GD per Warpy's request) Because of advancements in genetic science, we're able to get a better understanding when HIV possibly made the leap from monkeys to humans, by looking at viral mutations. Unlike human cells, HIV-1 only has 9 genes and doesn't have the mechanisms in place to make exact copies, so it is constantly mutating. We may never know the exact moment when this virus entered humans, but we are seeing research pointing to HIV being isolated and concentrated in the...

Fri Dec 01st 2006, 12:52 PM
I bring this up because 25 years after the first reported case of HIV/AIDS to the CDC, I still get asked if HIV is airborne. It doesn't help that our government still continues to distribute misinformation when it comes to this virus. So who has any questions? Anyone have any questions about transmission? What is an AIDS diagnosis? How long before HIV leads to an AIDS diagnosis? I'm a community health educator and I'm here if anyone has any questions.

Tyre,Tares and the Republic
by Bridge over troubld waters in Religion
Tags: Tyre Tares End times anti christ prophetic rhema
This weeks message - Tyre,tares and the republic. 2Ch 2:13 And now I have sent a cunning man, endued with understanding, of Huram my father's, 2Ch 2:14 The son of a woman of the daughters of Dan, and his father was a man of Tyre, skilful to work in gold, and in silver, in brass, in iron, in stone, and in timber, in purple, in blue, and in fine linen, and in crimson; also to grave any manner of graving, and to find out every device which shall be put to him, with thy cunning men, and with the cunning men of my lord David thy father.
tyre-h6865 tsore a rock ... derived from a word that means cutting,engraving as with a flint
As the afore mentioned verse the idea is that men of Tyre were artisans in engraving and shaping metals ornately .... giving that rich appeal and grandeur.
Neh 13:16 There dwelt men of Tyre also therein, which brought fish, and all manner of ware, and sold on the sabbath unto the children of Judah, and in Jerusalem. Neh 13:17 Then I contended with the nobles of Judah, and said unto them, What evil thing is this that ye do, and profane the sabbath day?
Here the men of Tyre are enabling the people of Judah to transgress the Sabbath,lending us so far with the idea that if Tyre isnt evil ..... they have at least the tendacy to tempt toward evil and involve a trait that lures into idolatry and sin.
Isa 23:17 And it shall come to pass after the end of seventy years, that the LORD will visit Tyre, and she shall turn to her hire, and shall commit fornication with all the kingdoms of the world upon the face of the earth.
Ah now we have the true understanding of Tyre and what it is about and what it signifies when we see her present .... see another verse and truly understand of what we speak:
Joh 14:30 Hereafter I will not talk much with you: for the prince of this world cometh, and hath nothing in me.

Photo of Chris Brown Hours Before and After Alleged Assault on Rihanna Before the Grammys
Updates on Chris Brown's Alleged Assault of Rihanna, Now Deadly Weapon Involved
Chris Brown stopped by his hotel a few hours before heading over to Clive Davis' Grammys preparty with Rihanna on Saturday. Just a little less than 24 hours later, he was huddled in the back of an Escalade after posting his $50,000 bail for alleged assault of a woman. We were shocked yesterday when we heard the news the singer had been arrested for an alleged assault and even more surprised and heartbroken when sources said the woman he beat was Rihanna and that there was a deadly weapon involved.
LAPD insiders, who also identify Rihanna as the victim, say the two got into an argument in their car, stepped out as things got heated, and a witness called 911. Chris was no longer at the scene when the police arrived, but the visibly bruised woman identified him as the attacker. There are some rumors that the argument began because Rihanna accused Chris of flirting at the party, but we're still trying not to jump to conclusions. His court date is set for March 5, and we'll continue to update you when we hear more about the situation. Right now we just hope for a speedy recovery for the victim, and our hearts are with her.

Introducing the Arctic Spas brand of infrared saunas.
Arctic sauna kits come in four styles, with seating for two to six people.
They are available in two types of wood: hemlock is light-colored, resin-free and lustrous and improves with age; cedar is a famous Canadian wood, known for its scent, grain, durability and beautiful red color.
Arctic saunas are easy to assemble, so you should be enjoying yours within about an hour.
Today, there are many brands and styles of sauna to choose from.
Traditional saunas use a sauna heater to heat the air and then the body. Infrared saunas use infrared emitters to directly heat the body – infrared energy waves penetrate the body and heat you from within.
All Arctic Saunas use this newer and more efficient technology and are available at all Arctic Spas retailers worldwide
