Is Kiwi Corey James Anderson the next international cricket hero?
Corey Anderson of New Zealand recently scored the fastest ODI hundred
It wouldn't be a huge surprise if cricket ball manufacturers decide to make Corey James Anderson their brand ambassador soon.
The 23-year-old Kiwi batting sensation is making their business grow with every international match he plays these days.
Not a single game goes without Anderson hitting the ball out of the park, prompting umpires to call for replacements.
On Sunday, some of Anderson's big hits landed on the rooftop and the parking bay of the McLean Park in Napier.
His unbeaten knock of 68 came off 40 balls and included three fours and four sixes.
But what really pushed the Black Caps team management to unleash Anderson against the Indians in the very first game of the series?
It was New Zealand coach Mike Hesson, who had said a few days ago that "fatigued" Corey "needs to be managed well" after that memorable series against the West Indies which saw him smashing a world record 36-ball century on the very first day of 2014.
But it seems that the "much-needed rest", as Hesson had suggested then, has certainly been postponed for Anderson as of now.
For Kiwis, this is the time to use Anderson's shock-and-awe strategy against the Indians.
And for Anderson, it's a big opportunity to impress the IPL team captains and owners.
"There is always going to be speculation about it (impressing IPL captains with his all-round show).
"Obviously, IPL auction is around the corner but I am focused on the series and it is good that we have got a good start," Anderson says.
All-rounders fetch huge money in the auction, and with a haul of two wickets in his very first show against India the Canterbury lad is ready to bowl out everyone, quite literally.
"You just have to bowl with the right plan and be smart about it. I am improving with every game and moving in the right direction though there is always room for more improvement," he added.

David Naughton, who appeared in 1970s Dr. Pepper commercials and starred in An American Werewolf in London, served two days in jail on a domestic violence charge.
Naughton, 57, best known for the exuberant "I'm a Pepper, You're a Pepper" ads, was released Monday from a Nevada jail, police say.
He was arrested in Henderson, Nev., Jan. 28 after police received a call from his wife of five months claiming that she had been abused.
According to Henderson police, Naughton and his wife had been arguing when he "grabbed her arm and threw her around."
A police spokesman also said that when his wife threatened to call police, David "grabbed the phone out of her hand."
Naughton left the scene before police arrived, but was arrested for investigation of domestic battery a short time later. His wife suffered minor injuries.
Naughton was sentenced to serve 30 days in jail but had 28 of those days suspended, after pleading no contest in court, the police spokesman says.
A rep for Naughton declined to comment.
Naughton's arrest was first reported by TMZ. – Mark Gray

While Smoke Fairies are championed by BBC Radio 6 Music and XFm, a welcome development recently came when the government invested £550,000 of public money in the Music Export Growth Scheme; the band was allocated a slice of the cake which "makes it possible for us to take our full band to the US", says Jessica.
A year ago I lost my job, felt sorry for myself for 48 hours and then got back on the bus and started my own phenomenally successful (almost) media consultancy. My latest playlist selection was, I thought, entirely random. But today I realised it's not - it's all about me. Or at least me and work - losing, winning and everything in between.
As The Beatles' 'Tomorrow Never Knows' fades out over the PA, the feedback groan of Barrie Cadogan's Gibson splits the air, a white umbilical guitar lead coiling obscenely into the amp. Five minutes into the gig and the band has put a grip on a crowd who twist with delight in the dark womb of the club.

|Thanks Darren, that looks like fun and knowing the gear makes things easier. How sustained is it and how technical? Cupped hand stacks or hand fist stacks or double fist stacks? Knee lock jambs, heel toe cams, stacked feet? Armbars and thrutching/locking off, with the hips/legs. What should be expected as I haven't lead a 5.10 OW really. Although I made it up Cupcake at the Voo, but it seems skinnier maybe.

Can't give all the beta away... ;)
but looks like you're on the right track. The gear beta should be an indication of what techniques you will need. It's really not that sustained. Go do it! I am not much of an o-dubb guy, and I flashed it, if that helps. Besides, I have only been on it once, so rating is approximate until it has seen some more ascents.

|After a slip getting started, I fired it, but... my strategy was sinking the right arm for very deep palm-up fist jams in the limited constrictions and a relentless gaston off the left edge. Fine on top rope but probably impossible to reconcile with the demands of placing and climbing past gear.

|I thought this was a challenging ow. I would recommend 3 4.5 size cams, although if you feel comfortable with that size 2 would work. I have small hands, so fists did not work. If the 4.5 size is a problem for you, then this is a great one to work on that size add the overhang and it is a tough workout. It definitely is easier for someone with bigger paws. I clearly missed the boat on this ow, and I love the ow.

Well I originally tried to lead this and got my ass handed to me, I almost made it to where it opens up for a knee near the top of the roof. I was hangdogging and went for it, almost getting to the easier bit, but my partner couldn't tell I was yelling "SLACK"! instead he thought I was saying take.... NO GOOD. Went back yesterday and got on it again, this time on TR, it's still tough on TR. I placed about 5 directional pieces on the way down, and hangdogged my ass up through the crux. The second time I mostly got it on my own power.
I found the key to be wide, double hand stacks and awkward feet (left on smears, and right tourquing and heel toe camming sort of for all it's worth as deep and high as possible, then sit up/stand on the left foot and move the stack up).
This thing is tough, and a heck of a work out, great practice though. I don't think I'll be leading it anytime soon, it seems the gear getting in the way makes it that much harder, not to mention it's hard to have enough of the right size cams for this one.
Nice work, Darren.... Now that I've blown my onsight attempt, care to share some beta???

I fully admit I suck at OW, but this felt considerably harder than 5.10. Maybe if you have big paws and can get some decent fists it would help, but otherwise it's some pretty steep stacks or arm bars. Felt like Generator crack kicked back 20 degrees but fortunately the business is only for like 15 feet. Whatever the case, this thing is an awesome bit of crack climbing.
WMC - for setting a TR, I'm not sure, but it looked like you could scramble up the back of the formation and the anchors were on a good ledge. Otherwise aiding up it with a 4 and 5 would be pretty easy.

One person was critically injured in a two-vehicle crash on Route 20 Tuesday morning.
A Ford F-150 pickup truck was traveling on Route 20 when it was struck on the passenger side by a TRX Midwest Incorporated semi truck, according to Ohio State Highway Patrol troopers at the scene.
The young female driver of the F-150 was transported to University Hospitals-EMH, where she was flown by medical helicopter to MetroHealth Medical Center in Cleveland.
Her identity has not been released.
The driver of the semi-truck suffered minor injuries. He also was transported to University Hospitals-EMH.
Carlisle Township Fire Department was nearby assisting with another accident, and crews saw the crash happen. They were able to respond to the scene in less than a minute, Fire Chief Kevin Dembiec said.
Traffic is backed up on Route 20 westbound from Route 301 to Grafton Road. A jack-knifed semi near Grafton Road is adding to the traffic tie-up.

Tori Spelling recently talked to AOL about her latest guest starring role on Smallville, her plans to change the bed and breakfast industry and how her pregnancy is coming along. Here is an exerpt from the interview:
You mentioned your pregnancy earlier. Do you want a big family? I read that your husband said he wanted a whole hockey team.
Yeah, that's easy to say before you go through a pregnancy for the first time. And then you get there and it's like, "Hmm … one healthy one would be nice." But we definitely want more. I don't know how many. I guess that's not up to us. If we're blessed with more, that would be great. But we're just trying to get through the first one now. It's a pretty surreal experience just watching your stomach grow every day and knowing that there's a living being that you created inside of you.
Are you going to take time off from work?
I do better when I'm working, when I have a lot of things on my plate. I've just always been kind of a workhorse. So I don't forsee myself taking too much time off.
How has being pregnant changed you?
Well, I have to watch where I walk because I can't fit through doors and stuff. (Laughs) You forget because, you know, I'll get up from a table at a restaurant — and restaurants are always so packed with tables and chairs and people — and I'll think I can walk behind people like I used to. And it's, "Ooops, sorry. Belly in the way." That happens a lot now.

Sheets are not very soft straight from the store because of chemicals used during manufacturing. To soften your sheets, use baking soda, launder the sheets, and keep the sheets wrinkle-free.Continue Reading
Use a cup of baking soda to soften your sheets. Place the sheets in the washing machine, add baking soda instead of laundry detergent, and run the sheets through a normal cycle. When the rinse cycle starts, add a cup of white vinegar. Rinse the sheets with cold water.
Launder the sheets using half the amount of detergent suggested on the package. Set the washing machine cycle to gentle. Use cold water. After the cycle finishes, put it through the rinse cycle again to remove all detergent. Dry the sheets on a low-heat setting. Remove them from the dryer while they are slightly damp.
Creases cause sheets to feel rougher than they really are. New sheets tend to crease and wrinkle more often than older ones. Eliminate this propensity to crease by shaking the sheets out before drying them. Dry the sheets until they are still a little wet, and then put them on a clothesline to finish drying. Iron the sheets on low heat.

The "aggressive show" as we're calling it I've hated all season. It never seems to really impact the play at all anyway. If you're not getting value from it, while bother coming out that high?
All of our players do it, it's a Vogel scheme, and I think he needs to play it more straight up.
I'd rather us letting the other team shooting a ton of 3 pointers off the pick than getting to the rim all game.

Suffering from a case of TV FOMO
I'm going to have to acquire Orange Is the New Black somehow.
Created by Jenji Kohan - the brilliant mind behind the underrated (in hindsight) show Weeds - Orange is the latest offering from Netflix, following House of Cards, Hemlock Grove and the fourth season of Arrested Development. Every episode was made available simultaneously last Friday.
The show follows Piper Chapman (played by Taylor Schilling) during her time in a women's prison, as she struggles with doing time and trying to keep her engagement to writer Larry (played by Jason Biggs) alive.
Critics love it: Alan Sepinwall says "it evokes "Oz" in a very, very good way: it doesn't feel quite like anything that's been put on television (if we're still calling Netflix 'television') before," and Tim Goodman thinks it "constantly offers more than you expect, and even when it delivers something either predictable or straight from the 'women's prison drama' handbook, it then counters with something fresh or unexpected".
Meanwhile, Maureen Ryan calls it "one of the best new programmes of the year, and the six episodes I've seen have left me hungry to see more". It holds a score of 80 on Metacritic.
But it isn't those critical opinions that are making me think about acquiring the show and devouring it in one or two sittings (as one is inclined to do with these Netflix releases). The real reason I'm going to have to acquire Orange is that people I actually know and love are talking about it, recommending it, and singing its praises.
I've got a case of TV FOMO: fear of missing out on a television show.
Maybe I'm over-cautious because it has happened to me in the past. People were telling me how good True Blood was back when it started, and I didn't listen. "A vampire love story," I would dismissively say. "How could that be a good television show?!" Sure enough, I ended up binge-watching the first season to catch up. I loved it.*
It happened with Battlestar Galactica, too. Amid all the discussion around the ending of Season 4, I watched every episode in less than a month - mostly so I could take part in discussions happening around the internet. Sure, I was a little late to the party. But at least I got there eventually.
TV FOMO doesn't usually inform my viewing these days. It's rare that a show slips through my nets before I've at least seen a trailer, or watched an episode or two. But I've got that FOMO-feeling now, with Orange Is the New Black. It's more than just a case of "hey, new show, I should watch that". I'm more concerned that people will be talking about Orange as one of the best shows of the year, and I'll be shrugging, saying "no, I haven't seen it".
Acquiring the show is a little tricky, too, since the only way to do so is via unorthodox or illegal means. We've discussed those methods at length on the blog, so I won't get into it now. Orange might cause some people to take the risk, given there has been no sign from any local network that Netflix shows will make their way to NZ.
Anyway, for today's blog, I'm interested to know if fear of missing out, if TV FOMO, has caused you to acquire and watch a show - and if it has, do you think it was worth the time and effort. So, over to you ...
Have you ever been affected by TV FOMO when making a viewing choice? And if you've seen Orange Is the New Black, give us your SPOILER FREE review, below.
(*) Now, of course, True Blood actually isn't a good television show. Season 6's only saving grace is Arliss Howard, who plays the over-the-top governor of Louisiana, Truman Burrell. I love that guy!
Make sure you like On the Box on Facebook and add Chris on Twitter.
Or, feel free to email Chris with any questions or ideas.

Thermoelectric generators?
A friend of mine found TEG Power. These are devices that produce electricity from a heat source and they seem to be pretty efficient. Does anyone know anything about this company or the nature of thermoelectric generators?
I like the idea of this device that sits on your wood stove and generates electricity. If you want ways to trickle-charge a bank of batteries and it's winter time and PV cells aren't working because they're covered with snow, this might be ideal.
Just to pricey for me....:o They are about $14 per watt. Though I agree a very cool idea....:rolleyes::cool::D
A friend of mine is head of R&D for a company trying to perfect them to a marketable level. They aren't there yet.

Estimating spatial weighting matrices in cross-regressive models by entropy techniques
The traditional approach to estimate spatial models bases on a preconceived spatial weights matrix to measure spatial interaction among locations. The a priori assumptions used to define this matrix are supposed to be in line with the "true" spatial relationships among the locations of the dataset. Another possibility consists on using some information present on the sample data to specify an empirical matrix of spatial weights. In this paper we propose to estimate spatial cross-regressive models by generalized maximum entropy (GME). This technique allows combing assumptions about the spatial interconnections among the locations studied with information from the sample data. Hence, the spatial component of the model estimated by the techniques proposed is not just preconceived but it allows incorporating empirical information. We compare some traditional methodologies with the proposed GME estimator by means of Monte Carlo simulations in several scenarios and show that the entropy-based estimation techniques can outperform traditional approaches. An empirical case is also studied in order to illustrate the implementation of the proposed techniques for a real-world example.

I doubt that your were 2 feet shorter than EVERYONE in the Netherlands, especially in A'dam with all the different nationalities.
But I can imagine other reasons to move elsewhere. Since I live in the NL myself and am dying to get out.
Anyway, don't know why I'm saying this, just saying good for being an activist, I hope I can join the team some day.

Dear all,I have been trying to use InDesign and PS to do something very simple... design a Blurb book... and need to vent some frustration.I am simply amazed by the amounts of problems I am facing when doing such a simple thing:- Errors when exporting pages to .pdf from InDesign or .pdf generated with errors- PS CS4 unable to rasterize .pdf without leaving some white lines through the pictures when the images in InDesign are in .png format- InDesign export to jpg leaving some white lines through images- PS CS4 freezing systematically when applying a simple save to jpg/close window action- Bridge CS4 simply deleting some files when hanging- ...Are people really able to produce books professionlly with this set of tools? Granted, the kind of things I am doing is probably not the most representative workflow, but I would have expected version 6 of InDesign/version 11 of PS to handle well these simple operations.Cheers,Bernard
I'm using CS4 Id and Ps, no issues at all for me with PDF output. I'm publishing a print magazine and it works fine. Sorry I can't be of more help.
Hi Bernard,The problem, we had was, that a line or lines (random) would appear in print, and only visible when viewing at 200-400%, I think it is a rendering error of some sort, but I can't nail it down. I haven't found the files that was affected, I may have deleted them.This error occurred in the PDF, from ID.I better keep an eye out, cos I am doing a couple of books later this year. Using Bridge PS and ID to PDF
Maybe rather than venting your(our) frustration here, it would be better to lobby Blurb, via their forums, to accept PDF input and significantly improve BookSmart. Other POD suppliers offer better design and layout packages, why cant Blurb?

Throughout the course of Dikembe Mutombo's career, the eight-time NBA All-Star was known for blocking basketballs. But recently, he is denying other materials in everyday life.
GEICO has been a hit lately for their "happier than" commercials, and the company's latest one featuring the emphatic shot blocker may be the best yet. Mutombo is back to his finger-wagging ways, but now he's rejecting laundry, tolls and breakfast cereal.
Check out Mutombo's latest appearance in the video below.

We used: A paper plate, brown and orange paint, paint brush, cinnamon, cotton balls and scissors.
I cut the paper plate into 1/4s. And combined some orange and brown paint to look like Pumpkin pie.
Cheyanne painted the 1/4 of the plate.
While the paint is still wet, sprinkle on the cinnamon and put the cotton balls on top to look like whipped cream.
Now you have you pumpkin pie.

Save it as .TXT (Tab Delimited) format. When you copy the data into postgres you may need to define nulls as ''. Excel text output does not distinguish between nulls and blanks. By default, the copy command defines nulls as \0 so you may need to change that. I personally prefer that blanks be imported as nulls. I use the following copy command when importing: copy mytable from '/path/input.txt' with nulls as ''; Also: watch your date formats (postgres is pretty good about this itself) and sometimes your negative number formats. (i.e. -5 is OK 5- is not OK!) Finally, Excel has a tendency to export several "blank" rows at the end (delimiters are correct, but all fields are blank). I generally remove these rows either before or after importing. --rob ----- Original Message ----- From: "Alfonso Peniche" <alfonso(at)iteso(dot)mx> Cc: <pgsql-general(at)postgresql(dot)org>; <pgsql-novice(at)postgresql(dot)org> Sent: Wednesday, January 10, 2001 10:32 AM Subject: Re: converting .xls to delimited file > Try saving it as a .CSV file and then you can choose the delimiter you > want. > > William Staniewicz wrote: > > > Is there any way to convert an Excel file (".xls") > > to a delimited file?

Rarest Qigong on Earth!
Iron Crotch is the most talked about ancient Chinese practice! Called Jiu Jiu Shen Gong (99 Power Practice). This ancient skill unleashes your untapped potential and allows you to achieve your peak performance! Grandmaster Tu's students have lifted hundreds of pounds with their privates, even students in their 70s. It can dramatically enhance your potency and help with sexual response dysfunction or lack of interest in sex.
What is Iron Crotch?
Iron Crotch is an ancient practice that has been past on from generations to generations in secret. It has only recently been taught to the public for about the last 50 years. It is a matter of fact the rarest type of Qi Gong on Earth. There are not many people out there that can truly explain to you in depth the benefits of learning Iron Crotch other than Grandmaster Tu himself. Grandmaster Tu has been teaching Iron Crotch for almost 40 years and is considered one of pioneer of bringing this art to America.
This art was also taught by the Shao Lin Monks in the temple, but their focus was not on reaping the benefits from Iron Crotch but more focused on the self-defense aspect of it. Yes, it is possible to strength your male genitalia with Iron Crotch. The most common reason why people learn Iron Crotch is to prevent and cure Sexual Dysfunctional Disorders. Iron Crotch practice involves training the lower abdominal region and the male genitalia. Grandmaster Tu's Iron Crotch pairs Taoist Qi Gong training along with Iron Crotch training to create the perfect combination to enhance the males body and help those with Sexual Dysfunctional Disorder to overcome this disorder naturally without taking medication. Natural remedies are always the best way to cure any sicknesses.
Grandmaster Tu's Guided Truck Pull in October 2001.
In October 2001 Grandmaster Tu's students pulled an unbelievable qigong stunt which caught the world's attention. Three men dragged a truck loaded with 100 passengers a meter across a Taipei parking lot. The three men pulled the truck with their male genitalia. They are students of Grandmaster Tu. Grandmaster Tu himself has staged several similar stunts and is quite famous for doing so. A year earlier, his 70-year-old student Huang Tian-Yu made the news by putting his manhood on the line. He lifted 150 kilograms (330 lbs.) using only his male genitalia. Squatting in horse stance upon two raised pedestals, Huang wore a kilt-like skirt to cover his private parts while a massive stack of weights dangled beneath him. His septuagenarian face glowed with genuine elation instead of the grimacing wince that appears on most men at the mere suggestion of such a bizarre act.
Penis training is often ridiculed in the martial arts world, perhaps out of envy, perhaps because it seems so absurd. Bring it up around the most macho martial arts men, and they will be crossing their legs and giggling like schoolgirls. However Grandmaster Tu sees it as a way for people to train every part of their body, sexual organ included. People in our world today only focus on training their body but the sexual organ is often overlooked. As a matter of fact, training the sexual organ has more benefits than training any other part of your body.
Grandmaster Tu Pulls the P-51 Mustang
In 2007 Grandmaster Tu pull the P-51 Mustang at the Palm Spring Air Museum. The plane weight about 8000 pounds, which is actually lighter then the stunts he had pulled previously in the past. Congress, filmmakers and a small audience gather around that day to watch this astonishing stunt. Grandmaster is the only man on earth that able to perform this stunt. It is out of the question that Grandmaster Tu has master Iron Crotch.
Grandmaster Tu has another extraordinary stunt he wishes to perform. He is in the process of getting clearance from the Taiwanese government to borrow a 747 jet airplane. Grandmaster is hoping to get twenty to twenty-four of his top students and strap their male genetalia to the plane. Six to Eight men per wheel and with their power combined it will be powerful enough to move a 18,000-kilogram (39,780 lbs!) 747.
Iron Crotch Qi Gong creates a lot of raised eyebrows, both in and out of the martial arts. Generally, the male genetalia is not a suitable topic for polite society. Some find it awkward or embarrassing just to say the word "penis." Others quickly descend into fraternity house bawdiness and bathroom-wall vulgarity. But the warrior's way can be extreme, and eventually this subject comes up in everyone's martial research. The wise warrior discards any lascivious thoughts and carefully examines this without prejudice.

By just one-quarter percent, Missouri voters narrowly passed a constitutional amendment Tuesday that ensures the right to farm.
Nearly 1 million votes were cast after a hot public debate. The amendment was approved by only 2,528 votes (a 0.25% margin), according to the initial, unofficial tally.
The narrow margin opens the possibility of a recount after the results are certified. Certification could take about three weeks, Secretary of State Jason Kander has said.
Missouri State Rep. Bill Reiboldt (R) originally sponsored the right-to-farm amendment to keep animal rights activists from threatening the operation and financial integrity of farms and ranches. Animal rights advocates are currently pushing for larger, more roomier pens for chickens and hogs, which livestock growers say will require extensive retro-fitting and remodeling.
But opponents of the law fear it will allow factory farms to proliferate regardless of adverse affects to the environment, the welfare of livestock and smaller scale operations.
Missouri would be only the second state to adopt a right to farm amendment, joining North Dakota.
The Missouri amendment says:
"That agriculture which provides food, energy, health benefits, and security is the foundation and stabilizing force of Missouri's economy. To protect this vital sector of Missouri's economy, the right of farmers and ranchers to engage in farming and ranching practices shall be forever guaranteed in this state, subject to duly authorized powers, if any, conferred by article VI of the Constitution of Missouri."
Article VI refers to the structure of the state's cities and counties.

Stew for takes home the Tony Award for "Best Book of a Musical". While I'd hoped it would win "Best Musical," the fact that it was nominated in seven categories was an honor and an achievement. Hopefully, the pre-Tony buzz and the exposure from performing on national TV will encourage many more people to see it.
Congrats to Stew, Heidi and the cast, crew, producers, and all who supported the musical since day one!

Italy's Vulcanair expects to begin flying its single-turboprop VF600W by the end of this month, according to Remo De Feo, president of the company's Manassas, Va.-based distributor. The fuselage of the nine-seat, 8,600-lb-mtow airplane was derived from the Vulcanair SF600A Canguro and its high wing from the Vulcanair 600 Viator. The airplane is powered by a Walter M601F-11 turboprop engine. The company plans to build four or five pre-production aircraft to join the prototype in the flight-test program. Italian certification is anticipated in late 2004, with first deliveries expected in 2005. FAA certification would follow. The VF600W is tentatively priced at $900,000, IFR equipped, but Vulcanair has yet to begin taking orders.

The history of the Prius is told in the book: "Prius_die_de_wereld_deed_schudden.pdf" (Google it). This makes it clear that the Corolla was the original baseline for figuring what needed to improve to justify the Prius. Specifically, doubling the mpg of the Corolla was the original goal. You could figure out how well Toyota did in achieving their goal.

Cincinnati (Jul. 2)
After achieving the elimination of the study of Shakespeare's "Merchant of Venice" from the curricula of most of the high schools of larger cities, the B'nai B'rith Anti-Defamation League is now directing its efforts to the smaller communities.
"Many school superintendents," says a report of the Anti-Defamation League, "still seem to think that the only basis for objection is that some of the Jewish pupils in the schools may feel personally embarrassed during the study of the play, and that, therefore, if there are no Jewish students in the class, there is no necessity for elimination of the play.
"Were all teachers of English in our schools broad and well-informed, the 'Merchant of Venice' might then become a most forceful lesson of tolerance. Instead of being held up as a typical example of a race stigmatized as vengeful, bloodthirsty and pitiless, Shylock would take his place in literature and current thought as one of the great mass of human beings, Christians and Jews alike, who resent insults, who love when loved, who hate when hated and who seek revenge commensurate with their individual passions."

John previously posted about the Born this Way blog, and I had several photos from my childhood that were so obvious that I was "born this way" I decided to go ahead and submit. Well, they just e-mailed me back they have posted the hilariously obvious photo along with my story!
Tell me, I wasn't, indeed, born this way. Oh, and I have a few photos I haven't bothered to scan that are from a younger age and even more telling.

Denver, CO, United States, 2010/08/25 - TR35 to be Honored at Technology Review's EmTech@MIT 2010 Conference in September.
Gevo, a privately held renewable chemicals and advanced biofuels company today announced that Peter Meinhold has been recognized by Technology Review magazine as one of the world's top innovators under the age of 35 for developing a process to ferment biomass-derived sugars into isobutanol. Selected from more than 300 nominees by a panel of expert judges and the editorial staff of Technology Review, the TR35 is an elite group of accomplished young innovators who exemplify the spirit of innovation. Their work spanning medicine, computing, communications, nanotechnology, and more is changing our world.
Isobutanol is a "drop-in" biofuel with advantages compared to ethanol. It can be blended with gasoline at higher ratios than ethanol and can be burned in automotive and small engines without modification. It has higher energy density than ethanol and can be converted into many hydrocarbon fuels like jet and diesel. Fermentation routes to butanol have been known for decades. The challenge has been to produce it cost effectively. Peter Meinhold and the Gevo team developed a proprietary fermentation and separation system, "Gevo Integrated Fermentation Technology (GIFT)." Using pathway engineering and synthetic biology, the isobutanol pathway is being optimized in an efficient and robust commercial biocatalyst. The objective is to minimize the production of unwanted by-products, improve isobutanol yield and purity, and thereby reduce operating costs.
"Each year, Technology Review selects 35 innovators under the age of 35 who we believe are transforming technology. Discovering these amazing young men and women is one of the highlights of the year for us," said Jason Pontin, editor in chief and publisher of Technology Review. "We celebrate their success and look forward to their continued advancement of technology in their respective fields."
Peter Meinhold and the other TR35 winners for 2010 will be featured in the September/October issue of Technology Review and online at technologyreview.com/tr35. In addition, the EmTech@MIT 2010 Conference, to be held September 2123 at MIT, will honor the winners with a dedicated awards ceremony and in a series of "Meet the TR35" presentations.

Is being too good at Shadow of Mordor robbing me of a better experience?
Posted by Chris Pereira Categories: Adventure, Editorial, Reviews, Role Playing Games, Xbox One
There were any number of reasons to be excited for Middle Earth: Shadow of Mordor, which launched earlier this week. For myself and many others, it was the Nemesis system--which promises unique enemies and emergent gameplay--that was the most exciting aspect of all. And while it's certainly an intriguing feature, I can't help but feel I've been missing out on it for basically being too good at the game.
Until reviews started to hit the web, I was very cautious in being optimistic about Monolith's first-ever Lord of the Rings game. For being such a major franchise, quality games based on it have been few and far between--something that's especially surprising considering its renewed popularity following the release of Peter Jackson's movies. Once I heard the almost-unanimous praise from the reviewers I trust, I was onboard. I was ready to finally play a LotR game that was a genuinely good game, not another passable one that I accepted because it happened to make use of one of my favorite franchises.

Earlier today 2K Sports released the new trailer for NBA 2K14, giving a look at a few of the 3,000 new animations, moves, and dribbling techniques you can expect from the game.

(CBS/AP) Yemen is aggressively hunting down a Saudi bomb maker accused of masterminding a thwarted bomb plot involving U.S.-bound packages, Reuters reported.
Ibrahim Hassan al-Asiri, considered a key figure in al Qaeda's most active franchise, is now the chief suspect behind the mail bombs sent from Yemen and bound for the United States, according to U.S. intelligence officials.
According to Reuters, Yemen launched a military operation in the provinces of Maarib and Shabwa to capture al-Asiri as well as the U.S.-born radical preacher Anwar al-Awlaki. Together with a
On Tuesday, Yemeni prosecutors charged al-Awlaki in absentia with plotting to kill foreigners.
"Asiri is believed to be hiding and moving with senior al Qaeda elements such as (Yemen al Qaeda leader) Nasser al-Wahayshi. Security intelligence are still tracking them down to exactly identify their whereabouts," a local official told Reuters.
Maarib and Shabwa are known for their impenetrable deserts, Reuters reports.
The threat last week came in the form of explosive devices hidden in the toner cartridges of computer printers. Investigators have centered on al-Asiri, who had previously designed a bomb that failed to go off on a crowded U.S.-bound passenger jetliner last Christmas.

Copper Edges Up, China Data Caps Price Rise
Reuters reported today that copper prices rose on Monday as some investors saw the metal as oversold. However, those gains were capped on news that new home prices in China had fallen yet again.
As quoted in the publication:
Three-month copper on the London Metal Exchange closed up 0.5 percent at $6,905 a tonne, rebounding from losses of up to 5 percent this month. The price fell by 1.8 percent last week alone, touching $6,821 on Thursday, its lowest since June 23.
ANZ strategist Daniel Hynes told Reuters:
In our view, fundamentals are improving, which opens up the scenario of upside surprise…

Columbus City Schools Back In Class Wednesday
Students across Columbus are starting classes again Wednesday.
The start of the school year for Columbus City Schools comes with a big change: free breakfast and lunch for anyone in the district.
In July, school officials announced they received a federal grant that allows them to fund the free meals for all 51,000 students in the district, despite financial means.
MORE INFO: 10TV Back To School Page
Eighty-percent of students within the district already qualified for free meals, and because Columbus City Schools met the USDA requirements for free meals regardless of family income, they decided to expand it to everyone.
There is no need for students to apply for anything to receive the meals. The only money students may need will be to pay for optional a la carte items and snack foods.
The district is hoping the food will improve overall performance in the classroom.
Columbus City School District is also hoping for a smooth beginning for bus drivers this year.
Last year, the district was off to a slow start due to a bus driver shortage in the district.
In 2013, a verbal contract fell through between the district and contractor to supply temporary bus drivers. This caused some drivers to do double routes, and meant many students found themselves waiting for drivers to arrive.
The district says this year it's a different story. They have everyone in place and all 845 buses passed inspections, including reserve buses.
About 32,000 students ride the bus to Columbus City Schools every year.

My Acer Aspire 5515 has a Broadcom94312MCG 802.11 wireless adapter. I installed Windows 8 and need a driver for this device. However, Broadcom says I must get the driver from Acer. I entered my SNID at Acer's support website. I must enter my OS, but Windows Vista is the most recent selection on the list. When I select Vista, I am offered 3 choices of wireless adapters, none of which are Broadcom.
The available wireless adapter drivers to download are Ralink, Foxconn and Atheros.
My question is where can I find an updated driver for this Broadcom adapter, preferably a driver for Windows 7 or 8 (32 bit)?
It is working with the universal driver supplied by Microsoft, but erratically. I cannot help but think the device would perform less erratically with a driver specifically intended for use with this device,
Thanks in advance for the suggestions anyone may provide.
It is not necessary to enter a serial number to access the Drivers page. Simply enter your model or use the selection windows to choose your model.
The Aspire 5515 is not a supported model for Windows 8 support.

This short article will give you the basic knowledge about how to research for keywords. This page is specific to Search Engine Optimization only.
On the internet, the "Keywords" are the words typed at Search Engines by the visitors to find an information.
"Keyword Research" is the process of understanding:
- What the internet users are searching for?
- Which keywords are used to find a specific information?
- The keywords used by most of the users (demand)
- The results for a specific keyword search (supply)
- The keywords that have more demand, but less supply
When you understand the above and relate it to your website, it will be easy for you to do keyword research.
Let us assume that your firm's name is "ABC Motors", you have a website "ABC-Motors.com" that sells used cars online. To promote your commercial website you will normally not rely on search engines (as the search engines index informative website only) for traffic.
If you want to get free traffic from search engines, you must consider adding quality content (various articles and information related to cars) to your website.
Before you create the content, you must complete the keyword research, i.e. understand what your prospects are searching for, and create your contents accordingly.
The Process:
You must first understand your prospects (customers).
Then you must find the keywords that your prospects will use to find your website.
To find that, you must get into the shoes of your prospects. Assume that you want to buy an old car and search the internet.
List all the keywords that you will use to find your website on the internet. At this stage almost everyone does the mistake of restricting their imagination. When you restrict your imagination, you will get a list as follows:
abc motors, abc-motors.com, used cars, old cars, second hand cars, buy a car, sell a car
The above list is fine just to start with. But you must expand the list to about 2000 or above and then filter about 200+ quality keywords.
You may be wondering how to create such a huge list of keywords. There are many free tools on the internet. Please try the following tools:
- Google Keyword Research Tool (FREE online tool)
- Word Tracker Keyword Tool (FREE online tool)
- Keyword Station (FREE software that runs from your computer)
There are some tools that give you information like "how many people" are searching a specific keyword and "how many websites" are displayed for a specific keyword. One such tool was offered free-of-cost by Yahoo. Now they have restricted for their customers only. You must advertise with them to use their utilities.
There are also tools that will give you complete data like no. of searches, no. of results and the KEI value (Keyword Effectiveness Index) for all the keywords that are being searched on the internet.
If your business depends on Search Engines, then you must purchase one of the following for you:
- Keywords Analyzer (The most powerful software that runs from your computer)
- Word Tracker (7 days free trial for the most powerful online keyword tool)
If you are a beginner, I suggest, just do the basic research and get as many quality keywords as possible (about 200+). Then create your articles around those selected keywords (usually about 2 or 3 keywords per article).

ZEPHYRHILLS — City officials took the first step Monday night toward annexing 42 acres for a possible runway expansion at the Zephyrhills Municipal Airport.
The acreage off Chancey and Tucker roads, at the north end of the airport, consists of two vacant parcels: 17.5 acres the city purchased in May from Acme Development Corporation, and 24.5 acres owned by Acme.
City Council members voted on the two annexation petitions as one measure. It comes back for a final vote Sept. 12.
While there is no plan now for a runway expansion, that could change as a consultant creates the Airport Master Plan, City Manager Jim Drumm said. The city has other airport improvement plans on the drawing board or in the works, including new runway lighting, parking lot paving, rehabilitating the runways and building a new terminal. The city hopes the amenities will help lure more air traffic to the airport.

Dilantin Level
My son (31) has been on Dilanton for seizures for the past several months. 300 mg per day. I know he takes his medication as required and his dilantin level has still continued to drop. Last week level dropped to 3 MD put him in hospital. Today it`s 0. At this point waiting for the state of Louisiana so he can see a specialists. He can not work. Concerned over the level.
There are several reasons the Dilantin level can drop, but very rare to see it drop to zero. Drug-drug interactions can occur (you can check with your pharmacist about that), severe vomiting/diarrhea (again rare to go to zero), incomplete compliance, generic Dilantin formulation (rare to go to zero).
There are many ways to evaluate what the problem is, but I usually just start a different antiepileptic drug that has fewer drug-drug interactions. Hope all goes well. If there are more details about exactly what the levels have been, when the drug was started, etc, I may be able to provide more help.

The sensory system
Good day,
Can somebody help me pls with these questions? I started to learn about the sensory sistem(and the nervous system/brain), but some books give different informations:
1. Are the Merkel cells located only in the stratum germinativum of the epidermis?
2. Are the Meissner corpuscles located only in the dermis?
3. Are the Merkel cells and the Meissner corpuscles associated both with the same sense of touch, and the Pacinian corpuscles with the strong pressure touch ?
4. Is the Brodmann area 28 related to the olfactory system?
5. Is the Brodmann area 43 the only gustatory cortical area?
6. In which part of the brain do stem cells exist? The hypocampus?
7. Is the reticulospinal tract located only in the lateral funiculus? Or in the lateral and anterior funiculus?
8. Which cranial nerve innervates the Ramsay-Hunt zone? The fifth or the seventh?
Thank you

Allium tricoccum
Lily family (Liliaceae)
Description: This herbaceous perennial plant produces basal leaves 4-9" long and 1½-3½" across on short petioles (usually 2-3 per bulb). The basal leaves are ovate-oval to ovate-elliptic, light to medium green, hairless, and smooth along the margins. Their petioles are reddish, hairless, and wrapped in a basal sheath below. These leaves develop during the spring and wither away by early summer. During early to mid-summer, there develops a naked flowering stalk about ½-1½' tall. This stalk is terete, glabrous, and reddish to pale green; at its base, there is a papery sheath. The stalk terminates in a single rounded umbel of flowers spanning 1-2" across; there are typically 20-40 flowers per umbel. At the base of this umbel, there is a pair of deciduous bracts. Each flower is about ¼" across, consisting of 6 white to translucent white tepals, a light green to pale yellow ovary, 6 stamens with pale yellow anthers, and a single white style. At the base of each flower, there is a slender pedicel that is white to greenish white. The blooming period occurs during the summer and lasts about 2 weeks. Both the flowers and foliage exude an onion-like odor. After the blooming period, the ovary of each flower matures into a 3-celled seed capsule; each cell contains a single globoid seed that becomes black at maturity. The root system consists of an ovoid bulb with fibrous roots at its base. Offsets often develop, producing clonal colonies of plants.
Cultivation: The preference is dappled sunlight during the spring when the basal leaves develop, while during the summer considerable shade is tolerated as the basal leaves have withered away. The soil should consist of a rich loose loam with abundant organic matter, while moisture levels should be more or less mesic. It is easiest to introduce new plants into an area by dividing and transplanting the bulbs during the fall.
Range & Habitat: The native Wild Leek occurs occasionally in central and northern Illinois, while in the southern section of the state it is rare or absent (see Distribution Map). Habitats include mesic deciduous woodlands and wooded bluffs. The presence of this species is a sign that the original flora of a woodlands is still in intact. An introduced species, Alliaria petiolata (Garlic Mustard), can shade out the basal leaves of Wild Leek during the spring, causing the latter to decline in abundance.
Faunal Associations: The flowers attract various kinds of bees, including Halictid bees, masked bees (Hylaeus spp.), honeybees, bumblebees, and mason bees. These insects suck nectar or collect pollen. To a lesser extent, the flowers are visited by Syrphid flies, which suck nectar or feed on pollen. Occasionally, the maggots of some flies feed on the bulbs of some Allium spp. (Onions), although not necessarily Wild Leek; these species include Delia antiqua (Onion Maggot), some Eumerus spp., and some Tritoxa spp. The plant bugs, Lindbergocapsus ainsliei and Lindbergocapsus allii, also feed on Allium spp. (Onions). Another species, Thrips tabaci (Onion Thrips), sucks juices from the foliage. Deer and other mammalian herbivores rarely browse on the foliage of Wild Leek.
Photographic Location: A mesic deciduous woodlands at Busey Woods in Urbana, Illinois.
Comments: This woodland wildflower is somewhat unusual because its foliage has withered away by the time the flowers bloom. Both the foliage and flowers are attractive; the latter help to brighten the gloomy corners of woodlands during the summer. Wild Leek has the widest basal leaves (1½–3½" across) of any Allium sp. in the state. A similar species, Allium burdickii (which is also called 'Wild Leek'), has basal leaves that are about ½-1½" across. Other wild Allium spp. have leaves that are narrow and strap-like (less than ½" across). Wild Leek has about 20-40 flowers in each umbel, while Allium burdickii has 10-20 flowers in each umbel. Wild Leek has reddish leaf petioles and flowering stalks that are often reddish at the base, while the petioles and stalks of Allium burdickii are light green throughout. This latter species is restricted to wooded areas in NE Illinois and it is less common.
