Comment is free + Barclays
Keep it in the ground Whether it's apartheid or fossil fuels, divestment is on the right side of history
Our campaign to stop Barclays investing in South Africa crushed the arguments against divestment. So why are they wheeled out again today for fossil fuels?
Editorial: HSBC bosses were true to industry form this week – grab the money for being at the top, then shove responsibility down the line
In a week that Barclays increased its bonuses, Mark Carney, the Bank of England governor, has said he wants these rewards deferred. Does this do enough to keep bonuses under control?
Anne Perkins: First thoughts: The Barclays bike fiasco should be a wake-up call to politicians about the limits of private enterprise at the heart of public life
Catherine Bennett: An exhausted banker gets unlikely sympathy from the City. Atos shows no sign of following this example
Nadifa Mohamed: My father's family depended on cash stuffed in a rucksack. Without transfers, today's Somalis face the same fate
Editorial: with a £12.8bn hole in its balance sheet, Barclays is passing the buck on blame – but this may be the start of a redefining process
Jonathan Jones: Framing the debate: The reaction to this picture shows how hostility towards bankers too easily echoes Stalinist and Nazi depictions of 'fat cats in hats'
Editorial: The prime minister is still confusing the interests of the City with those of the nation
Heidi Moore: With parts of Wall Street underwater on Monday night, New York's reputation as a world business capital has taken a knock
Observer editorial: He proposes that they should be kept on a short leash. It's a start, and will cheer Labour conference delegates
Editorial: Antony Jenkins is a refreshingly boring banker, but his appointment cannot draw a line under the bank's troubles
Guy Browning: Today's fashion is for 'safe hands' – leaders who look like they're in mourning for our standard of living. But are they any better?
Deborah Hargreaves: If US authorities are focused on British banks, the City of London only has itself to blame for the failures of light-touch regulation
Editorial: Dealings a long way from home no longer look like such a sure way of safeguarding a reputation
Matthew Oakeshott: This week's grim GDP figures remind us that what we really need are banks that lend and massive investment in housing
Observer editorial: Banks seem willing to exploit the loopholes found in tax havens and it's costing the British taxpayer dear
Charles Ferguson: The money laundering scandal at HSBC signals that it is time to crack down hard on our financial guardians
Editorial: This is not just some common or garden mishap or even misbehaviour at a big business. As Mr King observed this is 'fraud'

Based on our experiences with the LJC and other OSS projects we will cover several tips and tricks we've used to build a vibrant communities of thousands of passionate developers. This includes discussions on how we've managed to get the membership involved in the Free Java movement, how the LJC split off several child groups (Software Craftsmanship, Scala, Clojure and Jboss to name a few) and how we deal with membership conflicts.
Most importantly we cover how we treat the LJC like an open source community and how we applied Karl Fogel's 'Producing OSS' concepts to manage the community, build a large team of leadership volunteers (~50) and persuade other tech communities and projects that being open, transparent and free actually provides you benefits. There are also plenty of war stories to tell, especially given a monthly pub social with free and frank exchanges of opinion from our members!
Martijn Verburg is a Java/JEE and open source consultant who is passionate about software craftsmanship and the creative power of technical communities. He currently is the co-leader for the London JUG, runs two open source projects (PCGen and Ikasan EIP) and is a bartender at the Javaranch.
Most recently he's been speaking at conferences (FOSDEM, DevNexus, TSSJS) and co-writing (With Ben Evans) "The Well-Grounded Java Developer" by Manning publications, which covers Java 7 and polyglot programming on the JVM.
Ben Evans is co-founder of jClarity, a startup which makes performance tools for development & ops teams. His career highlights to date include: Chief architect for Listed Derivatives at Deutsche Bank, performance testing the Google IPO, initial UK trials of 3G networks with BT, building award-winning websites for some of Hollywood's biggest hits of the 90s, developing some of the UK's very first true e-commerce websites and providing technology to help some of the UK's most vulnerable people.
Ben helps to run the London Java Community, and represents the user community as a voting member on Java's governing body – the JCP Executive Committee. He is a Java Champion & JavaOne Rock Star Speaker. He is author of "The Well-Grounded Java Developer" & the new edition of "Java in a Nutshell".

text: DebateRiveting films that amplify, scrutinise, argue and surprise. Debate presents films that rush headfirst and unafraid into some of the stormiest issues of the day. From Jon Stewart's searing true-life exploration of press freedom Rosewater to a look at Israeli-Palestinian relations in Shira Geffen's Self Made to a haunting tale of environmental disaster in Brazil in Gabriel Mascaro's August Winds, our selection grapples with turbulent ethical and political concerns, in ways that entertain and challenge. We revisit the past too: in our archive selection we're proud to show Steve James' magisterial 1994 portrait of race in the US, Hoop Dreams. On friendly terms with controversy, the films in Debate are an invitation to discuss, to argue and to think about the unquiet world outside the movie theatre. Edward Lawrenson Debate GalaRosewaterJon Stewart brilliantly tells the story of Maziar Bahari, the journalist who was detained for 188 days in Iran. August WindsA sensual teen romance unfurls in a remote Brazilian village threatened by global warming in this haunting feature debut. The BrideA young mother is forced to take desperate measures when her son becomes seriously ill in this classic of Turkish cinema from 1973. Camp X-RayKristen Stewart stars as a guard in Gauntanamo Bay who strikes an uncomfortable bond with one of her prisoners. Captivated: The Trials of Pamela SmartAn engrossing examination of modern-day media and its influence on the outcome of one of the most infamous murder cases in late 20th century USA. CourtA folk singer is charged on dubious grounds in this provocative exploration of the Indian legal system. The Creator of the JungleA middle-aged man builds a magnificent hideaway in the heart of a Catalan forest in this fascinating documentary. Damn the War!Made on the eve of WWI, this Belgian classic sees two friends on opposing sides of a European conflict – now lovingly restored. Dancing ArabsAbsorbing drama about the adventures of a Palestinian teenager Eyad sent to a prestigious Israeli boarding school. The Face of an AngelA filmmaker struggles to turn a notorious real-life crime into a feature film in Michael Winterbottom's moving new drama. Fishing Without NetsTense, muscular filmmaking that tells the gripping story of a young Somali fisherman reluctantly caught up in piracy. German Concentration Camps Factual SurveyRecently restored by the Imperial War Museum, this necessarily harrowing film on the horrors of the Holocaust was compiled from footage of the newly liberated camps. A Girl at My DoorA cop with a drink problem is re-assigned to a small backwater town only to discover that the main problem there is alcoholism, leading to an explosive climax. The Great InvisibleA compelling and disturbing documentary about the US's worst off-shore oil disaster. Hoop DreamsFilmed over five years, Steve James's classic documentary epic charts the fortunes of two boys hoping to make it as basketball stars. Horse MoneyPedro Costa follows his Colossal Youth with a further showcase for Cape Verdean worker hero, Ventura – a haunting, poetic exploration of the night and Portuguese history. I, AfrikanerA fascinating account of the life of a family of Afrikaaners who are attempting to cope with the dramatic changes that have taken place in their country over the last 20 years. National DiplomaAn account of life for young students in the Democratic Republic of Congo who face challenges beyond the curriculum. Self MadeAn Israeli and a Palestinian woman swap roles in this mordantly funny drama from Israel. TalesDirector Rakhshan Banietemad's unforgettable drama travels through a twilight modern-day Iran replete with drug addicts, prostitutes and poverty. War BookA tense British political drama about a secret nuclear protocol from the 50s that's put through its paces in the back rooms of Parliament to test real-world scenarios. The Way OutPetr Václav's perceptive and unconventional study of a Czech Roma family features a magnetic performance by Klaudia Dudková as its determined heroine. We Come as FriendsSouth Sudan is the focus of acclaimed filmmaker Hubert Sauper, as he uncovers the avarice in the fight over the country's rich natural resources. Short films programmeLet's Talk about SexSex and mutual attraction make the world go round. However, love and sex don't always go hand-in-hand. Moreover, what is acceptable for one person is intolerable for another. These hard-hitting films question how we interact physically and emotionally with each other. |

The exact relationship between dental health and cardiovascular health may still need further exploration, but patients should be aware that the two are connected, a dental professor has said.Dr Gary Bouloux of Emory University told CNN.com that when he performs a dental care procedure such as removing gum disease-affected teeth, he feels he is benefiting the patient's heart health as well.After performing this type of surgery, he explained how "we reduced the number of inflamed and infected sites in her mouth, which may reduce her overall inflammatory burden and thus reduce her risk for cardiovascular disease."The dental health and medical health communities are still debating the precise link between gum disease and heart disease. At this point, they agree that C-reactive protein may play a role.However, Emory University cardiologist Dr Arshed Quyyumi explained that it is still unclear whether this protein is a direct risk factor or an indicator of cardiovascular disease.A longer-term study following tens of thousands of patients could help determine how dental care impacts the heart, he added.In the meantime, the American Dental Association suggests that people focus on practicing proper dental hygiene, including brushing twice a day and flossing daily.For more information on discount dental plans, call 1-888-632-5353.

LATHAM, N.Y. — The National Advertising Division of the Council of Better Business Bureaus recommended that Beech-Nut Nutrition Corp. discontinue claims that connect its "Good Morning" and "Good Evening" baby-food products with infant attentiveness or growth.

[Verse 1:]
Well this is the mysterious case*
Of Dr.Aden
Looking after her patients was her only obligation but
That was back before back before the situation
Before she got a visit from an agent
He introduced himself as an employee of the nation
He asked would she'd be willing to offer cooperation
You fit the job description and all the qualifications
If interested I need your signature on this paper
She signed the dotted line without the slightest hesitation
She then received a letter stating the rules and regulations and the military bases where she must be relocated
She is not to discuss any business that's work related
[Repeat Chorus:]
[Verse 2:]
It's central America
On a classified location
Before border control
Before a illegal immigration
Inside a lab where
Chemicals are manipulated
Is where we see Dr.Aden
Shes very concentrated
But her concentrations broken
When she hears a conversation
Down the halls
Small talk about destabilization and
Outta curiosity she wanders from her station
Inside a unlocked office she did some investigation
She breaks into a file with
Top secret information
Probably some of the most disturbing documentation
She ever saw in her life
The article simply stated
A study being conducted on human civilization
[Repeat Chorus:]
[Verse 3:]
Deep down inside she wished it was all her imagination
She couldn't doubt it
Cause there it clearly stated
She works in a facility where viruses are created
And not only that
But member when she had her patients
She wrote out prescriptions for what she thought was medication
Her office was really just a part of the operation
She wipes her eyes as they water full of frustration
How a victim of government experimentation
Wheres the justification
Wheres the justification
Wheres the judge when you need him
Hes probably on a vacation
Probably inside of the same countries that these events takes place in
But as the puzzle pieces fall into proper arrangement
Yes we began to see the intentions of these creations
The patterns of epidemics like
H.I.V. in the 80's
Biological chemicals designed to be contagious
There"s nothing in a business of controlling the population

Surprisingly, a few Google searches revealed that it's only been published on an extreme few international sites, so without further ado, we present to you the full synopsis for Iron Man 3 courtesy of Walt Disney Studios, Marvel Studios, Paramount Pictures and DMG Entertainment:

Here are the pics..
Here are some pics of a dozer we found at a mine were doing some work at located at the Arizona New Mexico border. Drive sprockets hardly look warn? The bench seat inside the cab was big enough for six people and a dog to sit on. Why did they put such large seats in these things? I talked to the operator and he said there is only about three gallons of water on the pistons. Saving fuel I guess?

Don' t ever trust a man that doesn't cuss.:
Here are the pics..
Don' t ever trust a man that doesn't cuss.:
My guess for the giant seat is they were there so the operator wouldn't have to stand up too see. or to give the operator left or right handed the ability to see whichever side they were on. since ergonomics is a fairly new field that kind of rules out the second one.
Looks like they got about all the life out of the sprockets that they had to give
I dont even see how it moves with sprockets so slick!
Is it a TD-25? And that ripper is huge!
To me, the main track undercarriage looks fairly sound according to the photos. If the drive sprocket segment bolts happen to come out easy (ha-ha), then I assume it would be ok?? I love the old International machines, they had their faults, but no machine is perfect. It looks a neat looking 25C!!!
Last edited by AtlasRob; 04-20-2008 at 04:18 PM. Reason: Question added
If their no good in the seat, put them on their feet.
I think Kelly rippers fitted anything. We had one on a Fiat Allis HD 41B many years ago. (late 70s) The tyne was 18ft long and tricky to change when they broke in half. Park on the edge of a bank with ripper flat, then pull the repaired tyne up and through with the crane. Move machine forward with crane holding the tyne until the tyne met the dirt to hold it & fit the pin. Altogether a PIA. Have also seen Kelly's on D8H & D7G..... C ya.........Ray
Great machines back in their time, I still own a td 20E. Anyone know where to get a DVT 800 international motor? I need one bad. My email is firstname.lastname@example.com
love the old stuff... seen a electrical sidmatic for a 78 tractor. nothing to it, all mechanical back then.
As for the ih motor, check with f.p. smith out in california. I used to deal with a bruce, not sure if he still works there, but I'd see what he knows first.
TD-25's gave the company I worked for a good run.
We had 25B's with Cat 463's behind them and a fairly late TD25C as a push tractor.
It had an Ateco ripper on the back.
CRC-Kelly made rippers to fit ALL track type tractors, not just Cat.
BigDuke, this is The IH forum, register and ask about the engine there. Hope this helps,
I'll bet they'd like to see the dozer pics there too, JoeDirt.

THIS TIME, THEY WENT DOWN THIS WAY. I AM LUCKY. FORTUNATELY, THAT TREE THAT CAME DOWN AND MISSED THE HOMEOWNERS HOUSE I JUST A FEW FEET. ROUTE 25 WAS CLOSED FOR ABOUT AN HOUR.

Of the kings who succeeded Eremon, and the battles they fought and the forests they cleared away and the rivers, and lakes that broke out in their reign, there is little of note to record till we come to the reign of Tiernmas, fifth in succession from Eremon. He
is said Crom Cruach was no doubt a solar deity, but no figure at all resembling him can be identified among the Danaan divinities. Tiernmas also, it is said, found the first gold-mine in Ireland, and, introduced variegated colours into the clothing of the people. A slave might wear but one colour, a peasant two, a soldier three, a wealthy landowner four, a provincial chief five, and an Ollav, or royal person, six. Ollav was a term applied to a certain Druidic rank; it meant much the same as 'doctor', in the sense of a learned man – a master of science. It is a characteristic trait that the Ollav is endowed with a distinction equal to that of a king. Source: T.W. Rolleston, Myths of the Celtic Race, 1885. © Shee-Eire: |

Cool Stuff Thread!*keep it clean as always*
I know, like we need another one of these, but hay, we are trying to revive this durn thing ain't we?
The last thing I bought was a movie ticket to see 12 Rounds and boy was I dissapointed... |
How was that movie by the way? Sucked?
Heard that was a terrible movie. You should have gone to see I Love You, Man instead. At least that had loads of sexual humor and innuendo.
Lol. What about Knowing? Anyone seen that?
eww, Nicholas Cage...
Got me one of these-
Show spoiler
Fell apart in the first couple of seconds. Boy was I pissed... |
Oh ok Lolz. What about Mall Cop?
Already saw it. Great movie though!
BTW this is spam, lets get back on topic. |
^: Hard to keep a "Cool things" thread going with only three or four people. That is, unless you guys are the type of people that buy stuff every ten minutes.
I wish...
Anyway, I managed to pick up a new game today with the only ten bucks I had in my wallet. http://pic.cctvgame.com/downimg/cctv2009327173158.jpg |
How is it?
Not bad for ten bucks. Its worth a play through, no doubt. A little complicated at points.
I don't like how there is not basic weapon with either infinite ammo, or a melee weapon. If you run out of magazines, your screwed. There's a lot of gadget and various items. Your arsenal is very large. |
I quite enjoyed that game, except for when I mucked up on throwing my EMP grenades.
Bad times. |

All clients will be screened before puppies are sold. Deposits are non-refundable, but can be moved to a different breeding. We encourage ranchers, and families to try our strain of bulldogs.

Boots looks cute but its too bad I had to return it. Burberry has to make the calf size bigger. These boots are meant for someone who has skinny legs.
Love these boots. So beautiful with the tassels. I sized up, since I heard that Burberry rain boots run small. The larger boots fit perfectly. Easy to tuck pants in the boots, and the foot size is perfect.
These boots are GORGEOUS! Excellent quality and look beautiful on. I wear a size 9 but purchased them in a size 10. The 10 fits perfect!-so they do run small. This is my first purchase from Overstock.com and I am very pleased! I will be shopping here again for designer clothing & accessories!
I love these boots. They are beautiful. I was not disappointed neither would you
I've gotten so many compliments on these boots everyone loves them
Seems like a nice boot but it is not meant for athletes. I am a runner and dancer and unfortunately I cannot find boots to fit. :-( Shoe designers are not thinking of athletic women.

Cook Inlet Natural Gas Storage Alaska, LLC Selects SunGard's Aligne to Help Drive Efficiencies in Pipeline Operations
(ENP Newswire Via Acquire Media NewsEdge) ENP Newswire - 11 December 2012 Release date- 10122012 - Houston ,TX - Cook Inlet Natural Gas Storage Alaska, LLC (CINGSA), has selected SunGard's Aligne Pipe Operations to help streamline gas pipeline operations, manage regulatory compliance, and improve customer service in support of its new natural gas storage facility.
SunGard's Aligne helps gas marketers drive efficiencies in their gas pipeline operations by managing cross-pipeline contracts, scheduling, nominations, balancing, allocation, and actualization activities in a single platform. A single platform approach with an open architecture helps drive a lower total cost of ownership, allowing for ease of expansion both functionally and across a growing enterprise. The solution's support for an operational flow model common to pipelines and storage facilities in the Alaska region combined with its hourly gas capability with daily flow rates will help facilitate real-time reporting and operational transparency for CINGSA.
The pipeline operations functionality of Aligne is part of a suite of solutions for energy trading and risk management that includes gas and pipeline operations, power operations, and bulk fuels management. The solution also offers integrated data feeds, data analysis, reporting and warehousing. It can be implemented on-premise or in a hosted, private cloud environment, helping companies to minimize IT burden and ongoing costs.
Throughout its development period, ENSTAR Natural Gas Company provided for CINGSA's construction and administrative needs. Travis Renk, ENSTAR Gas Operations Manager, said, 'We chose SunGard's Aligne to assist us in making real-time nominations and to provide reports in a self-service mode as well as handle flow allocation. SunGard was also able to meet our aggressive implementation timeline.' Andrew Bateman, President of SunGard's Energy and Commodities business, said, 'SunGard's Aligne will help CINGSA meet the challenging market conditions of the Cook Inlet Basin by delivering automation and real-time reporting for a wide range of tasks, including inventory, pricing, settlements, and invoicing. This valuable business insight is critical in today's environment of concerns about security of gas supplies, climate change and environmental impacts.' About CINGSA Cook Inlet Natural Gas Storage Alaska, LLC was formed in 2010 with the purpose of providing a long term gas supply solution to Southcentral Alaska. Construction on the storage facility began in the fall of 2010 and on April 1, 2012, gas injection commenced.

Principal Investigator
Steven Roberts
Associate Professor in the School of Aquatic and Fishery Sciences at the University of Washington where his research focuses on characterizing physiological responses of marine organisms to environmental change.
Graduate Students
Claire Olson
I am currently a masters student in Steven Roberts' lab at the University of Washington in the School of Aquatic and Fishery Sciences. My general research interests are studying aquatic ecosystem health as a function of environmental change, with an emphasis on the study of epigenetics.
Jake Heare
My current research focuses on understanding the phenotypic and genotypic effects of local adaptation in Washington's native Olympia oyster (Ostrea lurida). I use tools such as next generation genomic and epigenomic sequencing as well as standard molecular methods such as PCR and qPCR.
I'm interested in understanding the ecology, biology, and physiology of oyster reefs with my primary focus on oysters themselves. I have used tools such as histology, immunohistochemistry, western blots, PCR, and qPCR to study various phenomena in oysters. I seek to improve conservation and aquaculture methods to ensure beautiful coastal areas and bountiful seafood catches for years to come.
My previous work has been in the Eastern oyster (Crassostrea virginica) with focus on reproduction and maturation at Louisiana State University, Oyster habitat damage assessment from the Deepwater Horizon oil spill with the National Resource Damage Assessment (NRDA) work group, and disease testing in oysters at Texas A&M University at Galveston (TAMUG). I have a Bachelors of Science degree in Marine Biology from TAMUG.
Jay Dimond
I'm a naturalist at heart with a particular fascination with marine invertebrates. My background is primarily in the biology and ecology of symbiotic cnidarians, including reef corals and sea anemones that host endosymbiotic dinoflagellates and other photosymbionts. My work in the Roberts Lab will evaluate the role of epigenetics in the ability of these organisms to acclimatize and adapt to their environment, a topic that is especially relevant as we march on into the "anthropocene", an era of increasingly human-altered ecosystems.

Announcing "Volume Vs. Voice" + Apt 613 Exclusive Sneak Peek
| Posted by Chris
Admittedly I've always wanted to make an acoustic record.
And for a long time now I've toyed with that cliched artist dream of isolating myself in a secluded cabin surrounded by bottles, pens, guitars, paper, Christmas lights doing summer duty. I could feel the river beach sand in my old Vans. I could hear the welcoming cricket chorus. There would be no internet, TV or phone, though there would be a radio to keep some loose tabs on the outside world.
And there would be a recording device hooked up to a microphone or two.
As the vision goes, I slowly take a breath, a sip, then reach across the acoustic guitar cradled in my lap to hit record. From there, I let the fates, the muses, the local ghosts take over.
The result of living out that little fantasy over 5 days is my new LP "Volume Vs. Voice". These numbers all came to life in the crisp mountain air, on a few summer evenings in a dimly lit cabin in rural Quebec, Canada.
The songs and the way they are recorded here are meant to be as cozy as that old coveted cheap guitar and as fragrant as the warming tubes of your parent's old gramophone.
Companions for quietly contented, lonely evenings.
It was a soul satisfying thrill to get this out of my system.
Volume Vs. Voice arrives April 21st.
Our pals at Apartment 613 here in Ottawa have an exclusive first listen to the track "My Focal Point".
The complete track listing:
1. Rocket + Savings
2. Calling All Kids Reunion
3. Hunker Down
4. Chaise Lounge
5. Treatment Burns
6. My Focal Point
7. SOS For Sonny Rey
8. The Persuasive Injury
9. Disappointed A Few People
10. Time To Dispel
Pre-order Volume Vs. Voice here.
This record is 100% independent, so thank you for your early support!
To celebrate the release, I'll be playing these fine cities as well:
Wed. April 22nd – Vancouver – Skinny Fat Jacks with Meredith Bates & Chris Gestrin and Skye Brooks & Paul Rigby
Thurs. April 23rd – Calgary – Ironwood with Rodney Decroo and Great Aunt Ida
Fri. April 24th – Saskatoon – Vangeli's with The Whiskey Jerks and David Simard

2nd Annual 'Solos Going Steady' show in Ottawa March 7th
| Posted by ChrisPhoto by Ming Wu
Last year was such a blast, we're doing it again!
I'll be joining my pals Jon Hynes, Catriona Sturton and Patrick Shanks for another evening of singer-songwriter sounds, this time in the confines of Ottawa's Celtic Cross.
It was during the planning of last year's show that we came up with the name 'Solos Going Steady' in a loose ode to The Buzzcocks and it was Patrick who thought we should make it a yearly shindig.
And once again, meltingplastic has provided us with a knock out poster!
Admission is 'pay what you can' and the show gets underway at 9pm sharp.
UPSTAIRS! The Celtic Cross, 343 Somerset St. W, Ottawa
Sold out show + last call for The Stand GT T-shirts
| Posted by ChrisPhoto by Andrew Carver
Thanks to everyone who came out to Irene's and made that fun rock and roll blow-out a sell out!
Patrick Shanks was on fire and Fuad and the Feztones got the place absolutely hopping.
I won't tell you when it was The Stand GT last shared a stage with Bobby Beaton and John Davis…I'll save that for another post!

Considering it's been awhile since we hit the stage, I thought The Stand GT ripped it up pretty good! We played a rock solid set of songs that span all our releases, with a heavy tilt in favour of the newly remastered (and classic IMHO!) Blur Your Cool.
If you haven't downloaded it yet, get on it here! It's a blistering classic and our pal Rob Seaton has done a great job reviving this cassette-only release from back in the day.
A bit of an abbreviated version of 'Sad Bunch Of People'…but you get the idea!
Thanks for grabbing this, Chris Cook

Rare show by The Stand GT in Ottawa January 10th
| Posted by ChrisPhoto by Shawn Scallen
As many of you know, The Stand GT rarely plays live these days.
That's why we're psyched to announce we'll be playing a one-off show in Ottawa on Saturday January 10th at Irene's in Ottawa! This will be just the second show the band has done in the last 10 years.
After a blistering comeback set at this past summer's Ottawa Explosion Weekend, the band has decided to play once again for those who may have missed that show last June.

The Stand GT also re-released a remastered version of its classic release 'Blur Your Cool'.
You can purchase and support the band by downloading a copy of 'Blur Your Cool' here.

text: Pregnant Nurse Fired After Refusing Flu Shot Dreonna Breton had suffered miscarriages, was wary of vaccine's effect By Kate Seamons, Newser Staff Posted Dec 30, 2013 6:24 AM CST STORY COMMENTS (46) (Newser) – Dreonna Breton has an 18-month-old son and another child on the way. But the 29-year-old Pennsylvania woman has also suffered three miscarriages. And so when her employers at Horizons Healthcare Services in Lancaster informed its entire staff that a flu shot was necessary, Breton refused. Though she acknowledged that the CDC recommends it for pregnant women, she cited a dearth of research on how the vaccine actually affects pregnant women. "I'm not gonna be the one percent of people that has a problem," she told CNN yesterday. But her decision led to a different sort of problem: She was fired. Breton did submit letters from both her midwife and her primary care doctor backing her choice, with the latter saying that while the vaccine is safe, her health would be damaged because of the anxiety it would cause, reports WGAL; she also said she would wear a face mask while working, but Horizons gave her a deadline of Dec. 17 to get the shot or get the boot. Though the company grants exemptions for religious or medical reasons, it says it saw no valid medical reason. Breton says she doesn't plan to sue, but wants the company to take a second look at its policy. (In other pregnancy-related news, a doctors' group is advising women not to freeze their eggs.)

Dell XPS 14 review
Dell's 14in Ultrabook is stunningly pretty and built like a tank, but a poor display and cooling issues dampen our enthusiasm
Dell has long reserved its XPS brand for high-end machines, so it's entirely natural that those three letters now adorn the firm's swankiest Ultrabooks. Its latest, the XPS 14, instantly distinguishes itself from the horde of slim-and-light machines – for starters, it partners an Ultrabook physique with dedicated Nvidia graphics.
Before you even turn it on, though, the XPS 14 makes a stunning impression. The stout, metal-clad design is distinctive, and with a glossy 14in screen taking centre stage, it's a little bigger than many of its Ultrabook peers too. It's also a little thicker than most, measuring 21mm around the waist, and its 2.1kg weight makes it over half a kilogram heavier than the most slender models on the market.
Dell hasn't wasted the extra pounds, though, instead ensuring the XPS 14 is one of the smartest and strongest Ultrabooks we've used. We often find a little flex when it comes to a laptop's chassis, but the XPS 14 is one of the few Windows-based machines that's genuinely able to rival Apple's aluminium MacBooks for build quality and premium feel. The Dell's wristrest and base are as solid as it gets, and there's very little flexibility in the screen.
Both the base and lid are crafted from aluminium, and the interior and underside are coated with a silky-smooth, soft-touch plastic. It's a minimal design, as Dell has moved the normally required Windows 7 and Intel logos from the wristrest to an etched metal plate on the laptop's underside.
That plate flips open to reveal the Windows 7 licence sticker, and pleasing details abound elsewhere: ports are carved out of the metal edges, the Gigabit Ethernet socket is hidden under a small flap, and even the SD slot cover, also crafted from aluminium, fits snugly into place. The only thing missing is a removable battery.
The quality feel continues elsewhere. The build quality ensures there's no give beneath the keyboard's Scrabble-tile layout, and the keys themselves, which are slightly concave, are extremely comfortable. Our only issue is the single-height Return key, but it didn't stop us getting up to speed.
Dell's fuss-free approach continues to the trackpad, which is marked with nothing but a small, dark line to signify where to press for left- and right-clicks. It's easy to glide a finger over the smooth, untextured surface, and the whole pad depresses with a slightly muffled click.
The processor is a cut above, too, thanks to 22nm Ivy Bridge technology. The 1.9GHz Core i7-3517U can Turbo Boost to 3GHz, and its benchmark score of 0.67 is nippy by Ultrabook standards.

Title: | 2-d CA variation with asymmetric neighborship for pseudorandom number generation |
Authors: | Guan, SU Zhang, S Quieta, MT |
Keywords: | cellular automata, multi-objective genetic algorithm, asymmetric neighborship. |
Issue Date: | 2004 |
Publisher: | IEEE |
Citation: | IEEE Transactions On Computer-Aided Design Of Integrated Circuits And Systems, Vol. 23, No. 3, March 2004 |
Abstract: | This paper proposes a variation of 2-d cellular automata (CA) adopting a simpler structure than the normal 2-d CA and a unique neighborship characteristic – asymmetric neighborship. The randomness of 2-d CA based on asymmetric neighborship is discussed and compared with 1-d/2-d CA. The results show that they are better than 1-d CA and could compete with conventional 2-d CA under certain array setting, output method, and transition rule. Furthermore, the structures of 2-d CA based on asymmetric neighborship were evolved using some multi-objective genetic algorithm (MOGA). The evolved 2-d CA could pass DIEHARD tests with only 50 cells, which is less than the minimal number of cells (i.e. 55 cells) needed for neighbor-changing 1-d CA to pass DIEHARD. In addition, a refinement procedure to reduce the cost of 2-d CA based on asymmetric neighborship is discussed. The minimal number of cells found is 48 cells for it to pass DIEHARD. The structure of this 48-cell 2-d CA is identical to that of the evolved 10*5 2-d CA except that 2 horizontal cells in the evolved 10*5 2-d CA are removed. |

Master Chief fans were finally treated to a trailer that actually shows off gameplay, last night at Microsoft's E3 press conference. Microsoft VP Peter Moore gleefully announced that Halo 3 is part of the three biggest game franchises today (the others being Grand Theft Auto and Madden NFL) and that if you plan on playing all three, you'll need to own an Xbox 360. Halo 3 will be released September 25. Also look for Halo 3 Special Edition Xbox 360, which will include a spartan-green Xbox 360 with matching accessories and a play and charge kit.

Curling rink gets major tournament
These curlers know their stuff, and Nanaimo sports fans will get to see that first-hand.
Curl B.C. announced this week that the Nanaimo Curling Centre will host the 2015 B.C. Masters Curling Championships.
Sixteen teams, including zone champions, will gather in early March for the week-long event.
"We look forward to showcasing our facility and the city of Nanaimo," said Denise Wood, curling centre manager, in a press release. "We have a lot of fun with the masters. They really enjoy the social aspect of the game. They're still competitive, but at the same time they are not cut-throat; they want to have a good time."
Two Nanaimo women, Zorka Smith and Eilene Mitton, were provincial masters champions this past season.

I have been following the progress of The Million Dollar Homepage since it first went live and there is no question it is the most ingenious use of the Internet I have seen thus far. TMDH is the brainchild of 21 year old Alex Tew of Wiltshire, England who needed to make some cash before heading of the the University of England at the end of September. After kicking several money-making ideas around he came up with the concept of selling ads, one pixel at a time. The TMDH homepage is a large grid with each square representing one pixel which Alex sells for $1 each. Each square consists of 100 pixels and the minimum number you can purchase is $100 worth. The square is filled in with the graphic of the buyer's choice that contains a link to wherever the buyer wants to point visitors. This idea has spread like wildfire and in only a few weeks Alex has sold 74,000 pixels! He has published case histories from websites that claim a 1000% increase in site traffic by placing just one pixel on the site. Kudos to Alex for a brilliantly simple way to make the Web work for him.

OKC Thunder: Every Thunder fan should sink their teeth into 'Thunderball'
Those essentially were best-case scenarios for the Thunder.
None of those estimates take into account Kevin Durant's actual contract. Lowe provided those payroll estimates as a way of examining what could have been had the NBA not voted to award Durant a 5 percent pay increase on his new contract, or approximately $3 million more per season for five seasons.
"The estimated payroll figures with Harden on board, and with Durant's actual (higher) salary, jump into the $95 million-$100 million range with Perkins still aboard and $85 million range with Perkins amnestied," Lowe wrote.
The Brooklyn Nets, with $100 million committed in salaries, project to have the league's highest payroll next season. They play in the country's largest market (which generates considerably more revenue than Oklahoma City) and have the NBA's second richest owner. And even the Nets have folks in disbelief at their willingness to take on a projected tax bill of $86 million.
That tax payment alone is expected to be more than any other franchise will pay in team salary this season.
To this day, many still mock the Thunder for declining a similar distinction; for trying to be smart and, as Lewis put it, master the art of winning an unfair game.
"Harden wanted a max deal, and he deserved one," Lowe wrote. "Given that basic reality, the four-star dream was financially unattainable."
