My dog, Ginger, is approx. 1 1/2 yr old. I've had her for almost a year and I've been trying to get her to play with toys. She'll run after a tennis or soccer ball but then when she smells it she'll leave it alone and be on her way. I found out th… more ›
My cat's absolutely favorite toy is the plastic ring from a bottle of water or milk. She can entertain herself for hours with them. Does anyone have a similar "free toy" experience? Doesn't have to be just for a cat.
Does anyone else have a cat who likes to dunk her toys in water?

Sun (and other manufacturers) of course do 48volt slot-in replacements for their AC power supplies, so you can spec a whole rack for telecomms use to be 48 volt. You're right though - a 12volt power supply/smoothing UPS at the bottom of a rack with 12 volt feeds would be cool. Bringing in another strand of this thread, the Intel twins might be a great candidate for this - slide out the central PSU and substitute for a DC one (*) But as for DIMMS - these have heatsinks on the DIMM. http://news.com.com/2300-1010_3-6147638-1.html Look behind the copper CPU heatsinks, the DIMMS are on the right in each case. The PSU is in the centre, and just unlatches to slide out. We've shipped these twin systems, and they don't seem to run as hot as you might fear. (*) Flight of fancy - if the 12 volt PSU were physically smaller, could there be room for some active cooling device? Glycol loop up and down to the systems above and below (with one way valves so you could unrack a system!) The PSU is in the wrong place for heat extraction though - the air very firmly runs front to back.

Solar car chases checkered flag at Indy
It's race day at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway. You can almost feel the rumble of the engines and hear the whine of fine-tuned race cars whipping around the curves. Here they come! A small herd of flat fish pull quietly up to the track. These aren't your usual racers. They are participants in the Formula Sun Grand Prix, part of the American Solar Challenge for solar-powered cars.
The track racing event begins on May 2 and continues through May 7, but I'm standing outside an engineering building in Albuquerque at the send-off for the University of New Mexico team. The fire-engine-red car is swarmed by media members and well-wishers who can't take their eyes off the futuristic-looking design.
It took 15 electrical, computer, and mechanical engineering students about eight months to put this creation together. It's called the Lobo del Sol, which translates to Sun Wolf.
The three-wheel car is powered by an electric motor culled from a scooter. The body is crafted from Nomex, a lightweight material that's also used in race car driver fire suits.
The chassis is all hand-made. Small square solar panels donated by Schott Solar look like they've been sewn onto the surface into a big, high-tech quilt.… Read more

Positive Pay protects your business from fraud, letting you easily detect counterfeit and fraudulent checks. Positive Pay works by comparing an issued check file you supply to us to the checks BB&T receives. Before your business checks are released, your company sends us a file of checks written. We compare that file to the checks that are presented to the bank to detect and prevent potential fraudulent activity.
The entire BB&T branch network is part of Positive Pay's protection. Any checks presented to the teller in a branch are compared to your company's issued check file. If the check does not meet the information in the issue file, the customer at the teller line will be referred to your company.
How Positive Pay Works |
Step 1 | Your company transmits a file containing issued check information to BB&T prior to distributing the physical checks. |
Step 2 | As checks are presented to the bank, MICR line information is compared with your company's issue file:

For the first time, Seattle will offer to lease access to its unused "dark fiber" to allow private companies to build broadband networks with speeds up to 100 times faster than is currently available. "The City of Seattle has more than 500 miles of unused fiber optic cable. It's time to fire it up to help our local businesses and creative people innovate," said McGinn. "Our partnership with UW can allow us to leverage our bandwidth to expand Seattle's ability to compete in the global economy. By offering to lease the dark fiber, we can also negotiate with companies for better service to nearby neighborhoods who have poor quality service right now."

first tee combines golf and tech The First Tee of Greater Seattle, a City of Seattle Technology Matching Fund grant to support the development of a four-station computer lab and offer of a new college preparation mentoring program, video production, and goal-setting classes in new space at their Clubhouse and learning center in Beacon Hill. This computer lab has provided kids who do not have regular computer access opportunities for technology literacy. In addition, the program provided another avenue for meaningful mentorship among their coaches and participants as well as between their older participants and younger students. The project had a number of successes during its first year. According to First Tee staff, "The relationships built between our mentors and mentees in our College Mentoring Program were both inspiring and impactful. Many mentors and mentees alike have requested to continue the program when the next set of mentoring matches begins for the nine-month program in the fall. The addition of the computer lab put conversations about college and careers into real time. Our participants used the computer lab to research colleges, tuitions, majors and careers. With this information, they were able to create goal ladders with their mentors and make their dreams tangible. Through the mentoring program and the addition of the computer lab, our program was able to teach our curriculum in an increasingly relevant way. Through The First Tee Life Skills Curriculum, we teach participants the difference between dreams and goals, what makes a goal a good goal, and how to set goal ladders. We use their golf games as the platform for these discussions. With the computer lab, our mentors were able to more effectively show our students how their skills there are learning on the golf course and can be applied to other areas of their life." "The integration of video production into our summer classes was a great success as well. First, The First Tee has an internship program which is offered to our teenage participants, allowing them to gain leadership skills by assisting in the administration and delivery of the life skills program. Our interns were charged to take video throughout the summer sessions of the classes. From behind the camera, our interns were able to gain a new appreciation for the core values we teach--like honesty, integrity, perseverance, and confidence. Through their experience behind the cameras, our interns looked at how core values are demonstrated by others and their benefit. The same project was carried out by our Junior Advisory Board. These teenage participants led the creation of First Tee videos, allowing them to engage participants in new technology, exercise their creativity while developing their own use of core values like confidence and responsibility."

As a condition of the approval, WAVE committed to making the following system improvements to the Broadstripe franchise area within 18 months of taking control:
These improvements are expected to result in improved performance, more choices and greater reliability for current Broadstripe customers. Broadstripe and WAVE are now finalizing their purchase and sale agreement through the bankruptcy court, with a goal of WAVE taking control of Broadstripe�s Seattle franchise area in early 2012.

City of Seattle Cable Office Director Tony Perez presents an overview of the signal distribution system and speed capacity for broadband systems, covering the older phone company systems, cable company infrastructure and what fiber systems provide, using Seattle providers Comcast, Broadstripe and CenturyLink services as examples. This Powerpoint presentation [PDF] was made to the City of Seattle Citizens Telecommunications and Technology Advisory Board (CTTAB). The audio is available in the October CTTAB podcast.

Topics include: Crime SAFE; Earthquake SAFE; Fire SAFE; Safety Essentials SAFE; Terrorism SAFE; and finally, the one we are most interested in, CyberSecurity SAFE. You don�t have to register to complete the survey, but if you want to access your information in the future and receive a personalized Action Report, you will need to do so. With each question asked, there is an explanation as to why that question is relevant and what risks are attached to each scenario. The survey took me about five to 10 minutes to complete and was relatively simple to do. Visit them here. If you want to teach a class of laptop users at the park how to post to their social networking pages, you may want to subscribe to a wireless network internet sharing device. There are devices to which you can connect your computer that offers one point of internet access, or you can look into a device such as a wireless hub. These devices will allow you to share two or more computers to the wireless internet. In most cases, you will still be limited to be within 300 feet of the wireless device and you might be limited in the number of computers that can connect. What you should be aware of when selecting your product is coverage and data usage. Service is provided through the cellular providers and coverage is not always as great as good or bad as your cellphone coverage. Some providers limit how much or how data can be used, which is important to note before signing up. You are able to now get wireless internet service on a prepaid plan, which means you would not have to sign up for multiple years of service and only need it for a summer project.

Please bring back The Antonio Treatment. I see the new photo's of Antonio & Chewie in the Pampered Pets photos up on the site. Is he still part of the HGTV family? I enjoy his personality and design style. He captures his clients wants be it sophisticated or funky. He rocked last years Halloween Decorating contest! HGTV needs more of the Antonio Treatment... and Chewie! | |||
I totally agree. Very different design, not for everybody. But great to be exposed to his new and exciting ideas. I'm pretty contemporary in a traditional sort of way, but there is always some tip or design direction I learn from his shows, every time, whether big or small. More than I can say from endless repeats of Love It or List It and the ever-dreadful House Hunters. HGTV, go back to entertaining your audiences with informative shows, not one show over and over and ....... Love you, Antonio! I'll be searching my TV listings for new episodes! | ||||
Hate to burst your bubble however The Antonio Treatment has been cancelled. Antonio posted this on his Facebook page recently. He was one of the Design Star winners I really liked. | ||||
The Antonio Treatment (Season 3) returned yesterday! He posted on his FB page that the show will air Wednesday mornings. | ||||

Broke it...
I bought on of these kits last spring and it worked good though it was hard to get enough leverage to rivet. A few weeks ago I broke it back out to put on a fresh Renthal chain and I broke the breaking pin... the chain was apart so I went ahead and tried to rivet the new one... broke that too. Not sure what the difference was between the chains, but it sure wasnt up to the job with the Renthal chain. I am going to get the replacement parts and give it another shot...Comment

The photograph of those trucks and cars moving through snow: It is either the Leh or Siachen region in the state of Jammu & Kashmir in India. From what I can recollect the roads freeze over around October and stay that way till the end of May, when the army uses equipment to clear the roads.

Those trucks and cars on the narrow road with snow is called the Zoji La pass which connects the Buddhist majority Ladakh region with Kashmir. La means pass in Tibetan/Ladakhi. Its closed for more than half the year due to heavy snow and just got opened.

ON Sunday the Oregon Ducks basketball team at Matthew Knight Arena mounted a ferocious comeback, storming back from down 15 to up as much as 12 and finishing off Iowa in the second round of the NIT, 108-97, to advance to the quarterfinals.
Next up for Oregon is a Tuesday trip to Washington, where the Ducks lost 76-60 in December.
The winner of that game will advance to the NIT semifinals at Madison Square Garden in New York City.
Said Garrett Sim,
"We never got too down on ourselves, we knew we could climb back into it. We didn't panic at all ... the veterans kept everyone cool, and we kept making plays for each other."

People planning to travel by train over the Easter break look set to face disruption thanks to engineering works.
According to a report by the Press Association, almost all train companies will have some services affected over the bank holiday break from April 6 to 9, with bus replacement services brought in to transport passengers between stations.
In London, buses will replace trains on some routes out of Euston, Liverpool Street and Waterloo. Buses will also be running on a number of routes out of Manchester Piccadilly, Liverpool Lime Street and Crewe.
As part of the planned improvements, engineers from Network Rail will use the bank holiday to lay new track, make improvements to stations and repair bridges.
However, a joint statement released by the Association of Train Operating Companies (ATOC) and Network Rail has stressed that the "vast majority" of people travelling in the UK won't experience disruption. They said the number of replacement services would be down by a third on Easter 2011.
Michael Roberts, chief executive of ATOC, said: "A significant amount of time and effort goes into making sure that disruption for passengers is kept to an absolute minimum on the small number of routes affected by improvement works."

Yeah, I really didn't have much of an idea so i just took a stab in the dark. Seems as though being wrong makes me some kind of idiot apparently. Thanks b00ce for correcting me nicely
I just wanted to give an update and shout out to Placebo.
After I sent him the pdf and he sent it back with his real signature, youtube FINALLY accepted it and re-monetized most of my ArmA and DayZ videos.
Then a week later I was partnered with TGN and it all didn't matter anyways But I FINALLY won. That's what was important to me.
Thanks so much Placebo and BIS in general for taking care of this issue.

Whos email do i email to

I send them a Word File Document, already signed by Paul. I use the Word File because I dont know how to edit a PDF file. Can you please send me a signed PDF document, please?Hi,
Thanks for providing additional information about commercial use rights
for your video. Unfortunately, we were unable to accept the attachment in

Anyway, im still dont understand why some videos are acepted and others dont, even if I make a 3 part videos of the same mission and only 1 or 2 are ok to monetize for them :s
Open in word, file, save as, choose pdf, save
Oh ok! Thanks Very Much!
I hope this time they read it at least, %$&·" ¬¬

SUV shoots at Maserati that crashes on Vegas strip
Posted at: 02/21/2013 11:47 AM
| Updated at: 02/21/2013 12:07 PM
By: Associated Press | WHEC.com
Police investigating a deadly car-to-car shooting and fiery crash at a major Las Vegas Strip intersection are checking with nearby businesses to see whether a previous altercation prompted the killing.
Police are also talking to authorities in three neighboring states about a black Range Rover Sport that fled about 4:30 a.m. Thursday from Las Vegas and Flamingo boulevards.
The intersection is the site of some of the most famous casinos on the Strip, including Bellagio, Caesars Palace and Bally's.
Authorities say at least one person in the Range Rover shot at people in a Maserati that then crashed into a taxi cab.
The taxi cab burst into flames, and the driver and passenger were killed. The male driver of the Maserati also died, and his passenger was shot.

Posted: Jan 8, 2013 11:41 AM by MTN News
MISSOULA - The woman who is accused of running over a Missoula police officer at the McDonald's on East Broadway Monday night is still hospitalized after being shot in the arm by another officer.
Authorities say charges are pending against Dawnette Eaton, 47, who was stopped at the McDonald's on East Broadway around 9 p.m. and was wanted on outstanding warrants and under suspicion for being involved in local drug trafficking.
Eaton is currently on probation, with authorities saying there's a $150,000 warrant for her arrest. She has previous convictions out of Butte Silver Bow, Gallatin and Missoula counties on theft, forgery and drug charges, dating back to 1993.
Missoula County Sheriff's Department spokesman Jason Johnson says Eaton will not be officially charged until she is released from the hospital and taken into custody, which he says is standard procedure.
Detectives and the Missoula County Attorney's Office are working to finalize which charges will be filed, according to Johnson.
He added that Sheriff's Office will be conducting follow up interviews and completing a search of the suspect's vehicle and the apartment where she was located and arrested. Detectives will also spend Tuesday gathering any evidence related to the crime including bloody clothing.
Missoula Police Chief Mark Muir said late Monday that while the unnamed female officer was talking on the driver's side of the car, Eaton gunned the vehicle and took off, dragging the officer underneath. A second officer fired off a single shot, but Eaton escaped.
Scores of officers scoured the area for over 3½ hours after finding Eaton's red Pontiac near the Madison Street Bridge off East Front Street, where they also found a blood trail.
Officers got a break in the search at around 12:30 a.m. when officers followed a tip that led them to an apartment off Hillview Way, where they found Eaton, who was seen being taken on a stretcher into a waiting ambulance.
Muir says the officer who was dragged under the car suffered a broken hip, as well as a leg fracture and other bumps and bruises and is going to be fine. The officer who fired the single shot was uninjured.
The Missoula County Sheriff's Office will be heading up the investigation, which is routine when there is an officer involved shooting. MHP technicians were helping to take measurements and survey the scene of the assault and shooting.

Clipper Staff Writer
WEST BOUNTIFUL — Clean up following the HollyFrontier oil spray on Aug. 30 is nearly complete, although the company is still receiving a few claims from residents and business in south Davis County.
HollyFrontier Engineering Manager Conrad Jenson told the Clipper the company received approximately 405 claims, totaling about $500,000. There are approximately 24 claims still outstanding and the company may still receive a few more claims.
He gave a report to the West Bountiful City Council Tuesday night.
Refinery crews and three remediation companies handled the initial clean-up claims, Jenson said .
"It grew from there to include car washes, mobile detail services, auto body shops and even landscaping companies," Jenson said.
"We're not aware of any permanent damage caused by the oil spray," Jenson said. He added that the company appreciates the patience neighboring residents and businesses have had with the clean-up.
The accident was caused by over-pressurization that split the tank's cover, releasing fuel. Jenson said crews still haven't gotten into the tank to finish repairs there.

indoor: Trading Up
More and more print providers are creating masterpieces for the trade show and exhibit market by offering clients top-notch product that grabs show goers' attention without breaking the bank.
No matter what industries they're serving, more and more print providers are creating masterpieces for the trade show and exhibit market. They've found in this niche great opportunity to grow their profits. How? By offering clients top-notch product that grabs show goers' attention without breaking the bank.
Doing well in this segment of the wide-format field requires keen attention to the swift pace of technological change, a cognizance of clients' ever-evolving needs and desires, and a sensitivity to the value equation that spurs customers to buy. In short, lowest price doesn't always win in trade show and exhibit work.
Among the most noteworthy trends being seen in this niche is a move to trade show displays that are lighter, more mobile, and less costly to store and transport. This is a substantial change from the past, when the landscape was dominated by large trade show displays tailor made for individual clients.
"Now it's all modular," said Walter Bernard, owner of Webster, TX-based Bay Area Imaging, a 25-year-old shop that began as a photo lab and in 2005 morphed into a large-format graphics provider of trade show signage. "In the past you used heavy panels and frames to put together custom displays. But today, there are lightweight fabrics and Sintra panels...Even in the large custom displays, they're using more modular components, like the smaller ones."
The smaller, more lightweight, and modular units are largely a response to higher shipping, storage and set-up costs. Some Bay Area Imaging clients use large systems for larger shows, but smaller and easier-to-transport displays for other shows. They may go to the same number of larger shows every year, but they don't cart along a big booth to each one of them, Bernard said.
Companies are particularly seeking to avoid the sizable set-up costs for which many trade shows are infamous. Accordingly, Bernard's clients have more and more demanded roll-up banner stands and lightweight exhibit materials.
They don't need big expensive crews to set up, or trucks to transport it at high shipping costs," he said. "It all boils down to flexibility and affordability...If you can use your sales crew that will be appearing at the show anyway, and everyone's carrying in a banner stand, you can save a lot of money. Things are a little tougher these days, and people are looking to economize."
This cost consciousness on the part of show exhibitors is a big factor in today's market, he added. A few years ago, firms weren't nearly as conscious of saving every last nickel and dime as they are today, in his opinion. "They want solutions providing the impact they seek, but at a lower cost," he said.
The desire to economize is also negatively impacting demand for green solutions, he added. Much has been written about the demand for eco-friendly responses in the trade show industry, a field whose high turnover of materials would appear to leave it ideally positioned to lead the battle for sustainability.
"It may be in some parts of the country, but I haven't seen much of that in Houston," Bernard said. "Cost is far more important than sustainability issues are. We have materials that are recyclable. But they cost more, and people lose interest. If it came as a side benefit for the same price, everyone would want it."
Stand Out from the Crowd
One other trend Bernard has witnessed is shrinking demand for pop-ups, which are systems featuring collapsible frames for easy transportability. They've become too much of a "me-too item" in the minds of many industry insiders, he said. "If you want to stand out, you try to find a different look."
Also noticing a move away from what he calls "the old eight- or ten-foot pop-up" is David Merrick, founder of Nashua, NH-based BIGraphics, a shop he launched after being laid off as a printer product manager in 1996. In the 14 years since, BIGraphics has evolved into an eight-employee firm filling 9,000 square feet of space and running a multitude of printers as it services resellers like print brokers, ad agencies and sign makers, as well as a few corporations. Trade show and exhibit signage represents about a quarter of its business.

The ZSearch facilities are powerful and extensive. They can be userd in diverse ways, all from the top Search Page. We have also, however, ueed them ourselves to provide particular focused searches. This page is an example.
In the filtering area you see that it comes with a default choice for account type. That means it is looking for Wrtiers or Sustainers, as noted. If you change the filter, for example, of course you will be searching amoung a different constituency.
You can also put in a name, or a locale to filter your find list further. You can also select a Group and see members who are Sustainers or Writers, or even from some locale, etc.
Of course the locale filter only works for people who have taken the time to enter their locale...so if you don't find many folks, it doesn't mean that they don't exist in the system. Instead, it could be they haven't entered where they are from....
So, in summary, sarch users by account type such as writer or sutainer, by first name, last name, by interest (where again, this only works for folks who entered one), group, or by location. Fill out your chosen feilds and then click the search button. Choose from among the results disaplayed or reset your search to start over.

-- from the skies now to the roads in luxury cars like Mercedes and Lexus -- is a big time names they cost a little bit more money and you may think when you spend more money.
There actually safer for you in your family.
-- maybe should think again on this turns out some luxury cars performed poorly.
And if you -- these new crash -- they were just getting some of those results he's -- is live in Washington with more on that steep.
I -- the result of a newly designed crash tests released by the insurance institute for highway safety and some very pricey midsize luxury cars didn't do all that well.
The institute -- this test to small overlap frontal crash test.
It's designed to see what happens when 25% of the car's front corner on the driver's side.
Collides with a partial barrier while moving forty miles an hour it replicate the damage cause if a car hits a tree or utility people.
Now the institute says 101000 people die in frontal crashes each year in collisions of the type you see in these videos here are major source of those -- -- fatalities.
So here are the winners and losers in this new round of testing.
The cars that perform the best where the Acura TL.
And the Volvo S sixty which both got good ratings followed by the Infiniti G which got an acceptable rating.
So the losers.
All three of these midsize luxury cars got the same poor rating from the institute of Mercedes-Benz C class.
Alexis I asked to fifty and 350 the Audi a four and the Lexus ES 350 this is that.
First time this crash test test of this.
Particular type has been used in the US the car makers haven't responded yet to our inquiry but Mercedes told AP that test represents an uncommon scenario.
And they said we have full confidence in the protection that the C class supports its occupants.
And less confidence in any -- that doesn't reflect that -- seemed to accept the results telling AP.
With his new test the institute has raised the bar again.
And we'll respond to this challenge as we design new vehicles by the way all the cars tested were from the 2012 model year general and.
Saying it's making my husband's ten year old pickup truck with -- matter if the ship left a -- -- tracks.

Thanks to Dr. Edward Hertko, it's his dedication to prove to the naysayers, that large amounts of children living with diabetes can spend a week away from home and still manage their diabetes, that 40 years later over 10,000 kids have come through a camp bearing his name. Taking a chance, Dr. Hertko created a camp over 40 years ago and since then the camp has educated children on how to stay alive despite their diabetes.
Appreciating the fact that amounts of money is being donated to diabetes research for a cure, Hertko realized until then what are kids suppose to do while they wait. Bringing them to the camp not only allows them to have fun, but it educates them on how to manage their diabetes with other kids just like them until that cure is found. Watch and thank Dr. Hertko for his mission to prove that kids with diabetes can still live a life just like any other kid!
Click to find more informational, inspirational, and educational videos and recipes about diabetes!
Every parent worries about the day their type 1 child will have manage diabetes on his or her own. When Ed Damiano's son, David, was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes, he was determined to create a bionic pancreas before David went to college. As an associate professor of biomedical engineering at Boston University, Ed had a real opportunity to make his dream reality.
"It's probably the single greatest concern a parent has is not only taking care of their kid at night but, how their kid is going to do that when they are on their own," he said.
The bionic pancreas that Ed and his team designed not only administers insulin like an insulin pump, but also dispenses glucagon in tiny doses to precisely increase blood sugar. This will give patients the ability to function as if they had an actual pancreas, though it will be located outside of the body. Currently in its third iteration, the bionic pancreas is still being tested in clinical studies with Massachusetts General Hospital.
After more than a decade of rigorous effort, Ed Damiano's dream is closer than ever to becoming reality. Ed's goal is to submit the bionic pancreas to the FDA in time to get the agency's approval for production and use by 2017, when David is expected to graduate from high school. The team of experts collaborating with Ed is currently working on the clinical trials and finishing touches for the device prior to submitting it to the FDA.

LOVE my new fire pit!!!! Very durable, easy to put together, attractive and great size. Large enough to hold big logs and looks awesome when burning at night. Also the BEST price from Bass Pro!!! Searched around and found the pit elsewhere from $150-$200!!
September 2, 2012
Rated 3 out of 5 "ok" Item, over priced.
Assembly was very easy, but time consuming (about a 25 minute solo task) I did not attach the hood (top) because of the length of wood I needed to burn. The gate door is large enough to add wood and poke at the fire. The poking stick, however, is very short: Elbow to wrist length, so I don't use it. After 3 fires, each lasting about 3 hours, the powder coating began to peel off from a couple of spots (my only concern here is that rust might set in later since I keep this outside). Also, the animal cut outs allow a lot of air to access the fire. This has caused my fires to burn out faster. You can feel the heat all around this thing, and it is lovely to look at the glowing animals. I feel that I overpaid for this at $89, but it has definitely gets the job done.

Debt: Who You Gonna Serve?
It's one thing to trust God to provide for our present needs (Matthew 6:33). It is another to presume upon him by dictating (via choosing to go into debt) the demand for, amount of and necessary duration of his future provision.

The main activities of the German Aerospace Center (DLR) joint sites of Braunschweig and Göttingen are aviation and transport research. Located at the Research Airport Braunschweig, DLR continues the tradition of the Deutsche Forschungsanstalt für Luft- und Raumfahrt (DFL), founded in 1936, and employs there about 1000 highly-qualified scientists and engineers.
There are no events for the selected time-range.
Ideas for the airport of the future arise in Hamburg. On 27 and 28 November 2013, researchers at DLR, together with numerous industrial and university research partners in the Lighthouse Project 'Airport 2030', presented their final results in the Conference Centre at Hamburg Airport.
The sound of aircraft engines starting up – an everyday occurrence in many towns close to airports. To help develop quieter aircraft engines, scientists from DLR are going to use contactless laser metrology and microphones for the very first time to investigate the sources of noise inside jet engines and on the main fan.

Incredibly so. We can measure over training via heart rate variability (HRV). A decline in HRV is a marker of sympathetic over training. Well, the more over trained you are, the less likely you will be to mate. And the more over trained your partner is, the less likely she will be to orgasm. Bottom line - deload, and make sure you are deloading your woman.
J Sex Med. 2012 Jan;9(1):188-97. doi: 10.1111/j.1743-6109.2011.02541.x. Epub 2011 Nov 14.
Greater resting heart rate variability is associated with orgasms through penile-vaginal intercourse, but not with orgasms from other sources.
Costa RM, Brody S.
School of Social Sciences, University of the West of Scotland, Paisley, UK.
Resting heart rate variability (HRV), a marker of parasympathetic activity, is a predictor of health and longevity. Better erectile function is associated with greater resting HRV (assessed by high frequency power [HF]), and in both sexes, penile-vaginal intercourse (PVI) is the only sexual behavior consistently associated with indices of better physical and mental health, including greater resting HRV (assessed by standard deviation [SD] of heart rate [HR]).
To examine the hypotheses that greater frequency of orgasms attained through PVI (for women, without additional simultaneous clitoral stimulation; vaginal orgasm) are associated with greater resting HRV. A differential hypothesis is that HRV measures will be unrelated to orgasmic frequency from noncoital sexual activities.
Coitally experienced men and women (N = 143) had their heart rate measured for 5 minutes and reported the frequency of various sexual behaviors and corresponding orgasms in a recent representative month.
Partial correlations and analyses of covariance controlling for social desirability responding were used to examine the associations of sexual activities with time and frequency domains of HRV.
For men, greater resting SD of HR was associated with greater PVI orgasm frequency. For women, greater resting SD of HR was associated with any vaginal orgasm. These findings remained after controlling for cohabitation. Sexual activities were unrelated to HF. Lifetime number of PVI partners was unrelated to SD of HR and HF.
Findings are discussed in the context of orgasms through PVI enhancing HRV, and greater parasympathetic tone favoring the capacity to engage in PVI, and in the case of women, to reach vaginal orgasm. The possibility of healthier people having greater resting HRV and more frequent orgasms through specifically PVI is also considered.

LEE - A Massachusetts man will remain in a psychiatric hospital at least until the end of the month.
Phab Nguyen is accused of shooting his stepson last month and killing the family dog.
After his arrest, a judge ordered Nguyen to undergo a psychological evaluation at a state hospital.
According to the Berkshire Eagle, the judge has now ordered Nguyen held at the hospital for further testing, to determine if he is competent to stand trial.
His stepson was treated for gunshot wounds and released.
