Vishwanatha Chandrahas
While at the Keck Center, Vishwanatha studied Group A streptococcus (GAS). GAS is a human specific pathogen which causes trivial infections e.g., sore throat and impetigo, as well lethal infections e.g., necrotizing fasciitis and rheumatic heart disease. In order to infect its host, GAS expresses several pathogenic proteins like streptokinase (SK) which is secreted to the surrounding environment and M or M-like proteins which are embedded on cell membrane. M or M-like proteins are used as a basis for serotyping GAS strains into >250 types. GAS uses these proteins to exploit functional host fibrinolytic system for their own advantage. M or M-like proteins (e.g. M1 and PAM, respectively) tightly bind human plasminogen (hPg) and fibrinogen. SK secreted by GAS non-proteolytically activates hPg to a broad spectrum serine protease, plasmin (hPm), localizing proteolytic activity of hPm to GAS surface. hPm can break tissue barriers and assists GAS to invade tissue barriers and disseminate into deeper tissues.
His research interests included studying the biological consequences of altering M or M-like proteins and SK on HPg activation and their effect on GAS virulence. Additionally, he also studied structural differences in hPg binding domain within PAM. PAM binds to kringle2 of hPg with high affinity and the binding mechanism has been characterized. However, prevalence of amino acid sequence variation among several PAMs within the hPg binding region without affecting their binding to hPg warrants further studies.
His final thesis titled "Sequence Diversity in Streptokinase and M-Proteins, Their Co-Inheritance and Functional Relationships in Group A Streptococcal Virulence".
Dr. Chandrahas received the position of Postdoctoral Fellow at Sanford Burnham Prebys Medical Discovery Institute, LaJolla, California after graduation.
Shailaja Kunda
Shailaja has performed research in the field of neuroscience utilizing integrated biophysical and biochemical techniques to study the interaction of peptides known as conantokins and their target ion channel receptors, NMDAR. Conantokins are peptides, produced by snails inhabiting the Indo-Pacific Ocean. Conserved distribution of post-translationally modified amino acid residues, γ-carboxyglutamate, provide the peptides with unique structural and functional properties that can be exploited for rational drug design towards NMDAR-elicited excitoxicity events in pain, such as in Parkinson's disease.
Her final thesis titled "Structure and Functional Relationships of N-Methyl-D Aspartate-Receptor Specific Antagonistic Peptides from the Conus Species of Marine Snails".

These are so much better than the original ones. My transaction was quickly completed and before I knew it the product had arrived. I have a neighbor who sells grills come over and when he placed the product in my grill, he was also impressed with the quality and asked from whom the product was purchased!
Posted by Ben Hyde on 4th May 2017
I'm am so happy with heat plates I purchased. The are better designed than the original ones and they have restored my Cap't Cook grill to better than new performance. I was exasperated with BBQ Galore and their lack of a replacement when I found this website. I would heartily recommend these as a quality better than new replacement for a grill that uses this type of heat plate.

Curating Europes' Futures: Mother Tongue presents Blind Spots
13:00 on 27 June 2015
CCA Glasgow cinema
'Blind Spots' is a half-day event of presentations and discussion, accompanied by a film screening of Ruben Östlund's 2011 Play. The programme will include presentations from four discussants; artist Loulou Cherinet (Sweden/Ethiopia), curators Nana Adusei-Poku (Netherlands) and Power Ekroth (Norway/Germany), and art historian Eddie Chambers (UK).
The event will focus on curatorial and artistic interventions into different kinds of archives; asking how the creation or maintenance of archives reflect national interests and place-making; and with a particular emphasis on projects that have sought to address racial inequalities, exclusions, grand narratives and myth-making in the visual arts. Focusing on the Nordic region and Scotland, the programme will have a particular focus on the manifestation of whiteness in northern artistic cities, drawing parallels between Stockholm, Oslo and Glasgow.
Translated excerpts of writer Oivvio Polite's White Like Me: Selected Texts on Racism (Danger Bay Press, Stockholm, 2007) have been translated into English specifically for this event, and will be freely distributed for all audience members.
1pm – 3.30pm: Introduction, and screening of Ruben Östlund's Play.
4pm – 7pm: Presentations from Loulou Cherinet, Nana Adusei-Poku, Power Ekroth and Eddie Chambers, followed by Q&A (with break).
*Please note that audience members are welcome to come to the programme in full or in part.

Environmental Degradation, Indigenous Resistance, and a Place for the Sciences | Dissident Voice - salehmomani soup.io Source: http://jakartamanagementfraudwatchsolutions.quora.com/Environmental-Degradation-Indigenous-Resistance-and-a-Place-for-the-Sciences-Dissident-Voice-salehmomani-soup
For roughly five hundred years, Indigenous peoples have been struggling against the dominant institutions of society, against imperialism, colonialism, exploitation, impoverishment, segregation, racism, and genocide. The struggle continues today under the present world social order and against the dominant institutions of 'neoliberalism' and globalization: the state, corporations, financial institutions and international organizations. Indigenous communities continue to struggle to preserve their cultural identities, languages, histories, and the continuing theft and exploitation of their land. Indigenous resistance against environmental degradation and resource extraction represents the most direct source of resistance against a global environmental crisis which threatens to lead the species to extinction. It is here that many in the scientific community have also taken up the cause of resistance against the destruction of the global environment. While Indigenous and scientific activism share similar objectives in relation to environmental issues, there is a serious lack of convergence between the two groups in terms of sharing knowledge, organizing, and activism.
Indigenous groups are often on the front lines of the global environmental crisis – at the point of interaction (or extraction) – they resist against the immediate process of resource extraction and the environmental devastation is causes to their communities and society as a whole. The continued repression, exploitation and discrimination against Indigenous peoples have made the struggle – and the potential consequences of failure – significantly more problematic. This struggle has been ongoing for centuries, and as the species heads toward extinction – as it is along our current trajectory – Indigenous peoples will be on the front lines of that process. Many in the scientific community have been struggling for decades to address major environmental issues. Here, the focus is largely on the issue of climate change, and the approach has largely been to work through institutions in order to create enough pressure to reform. Yet, after decades of organizing through academic and environmental organizations, lobbying governments, corporations and international organizations, progress has been slow and often ineffectual, with major international conferences being hyped up but with little concrete results. Indigenous peoples continue to struggle against the dominant institutions while many in the scientific community continue to struggle within the dominant institutions, though their objectives remain similar.
A major problem and disparity becomes clear: Indigenous peoples – among the most repressed and exploited in the world – are left to struggle directly against the most powerful institutions in the world (states and transnational corporations), while many in the sciences – an area of knowledge which has and continues to hold enormous potential to advance the species – attempt to convince those powerful institutions to profit less at exactly the point in history when they have never profited more. Indigenous communities remain largely impoverished, and the scientific community remains largely dependent for funding upon the very institutions which are destroying the environment: states, corporations and international organizations. Major barriers to scientific inquiry and research can thus be established if the institutions feel threatened, if they choose to steer the sciences into areas exclusively designed to produce 'profitable' forms of knowledge and technology. As humanity enters a critical stage – perhaps the most critical we have ever faced as a species – it is important to begin to acknowledge, question, and change the institutional contradictions and constraints of our society.
It seems only logical that a convergence between Indigenous and scientific activism, organization, and the sharing of knowledge should be encouraged and facilitated. Indeed, the future of the species may depend upon it. This paper aims to encourage such a convergence by applying an anarchistic analysis of the social order as it relates to environmental degradation, specifically at the point of interaction with the environment (the source of extraction). In classifying this as an anarchistic analysis, I simply mean that it employs a highly critical perspective of hierarchically organized institutions. This paper does not intend to discuss in any detail the issue of climate change, since that issue is largely a symptom of the problem, which at its source is how the human social order interacts directly with the environment: extraction, pollution, degradation, exploitation and destruction at the point of interaction.
This analysis will seek to critically assess the actions and functions of states, corporations, international organizations, financial institutions, trade agreements and markets in how they affect the environment, primarily at the point of interaction. It is also at this point where Indigenous peoples are taking up the struggle against environ- mental degradation and human extinction. Through an anarchistic analysis of Indigenous repression and resistance at the point of interaction between the modern social order and the environment (focusing primarily on examples from Canada), this paper hopes to provide encouragement to those in the scientific community seeking to address environmental issues to increase their efforts in working with and for the direct benefit of Indigenous peoples. There exists an historical injustice which can and must be rectified: the most oppressed and exploited peoples over the past five hundred years of a Western-dominated world are on the front lines of struggling for the survival of the species as a whole. Modern science – which has done so much to advance Western 'civilization' – can and should make Indigenous issues a priority, not only for their sake, but for the species as a whole. Indeed, it is a matter of survival for the sciences themselves, for they will perish with the species. An anarchistic analysis of the social order hopes to encourage a convergence between Indigenous and scientific knowledge and activism as it relates to resolving the global environmental crisis we now face. read more topics: Global Corporate powerThe Environmental Impact of Inequality

Kids are great! *forced smile*
No really, kids are amazing. I have 3 of my own & many whom I proudly "momma bear" even though they are not of my womb.
My oldest, "R", is nearly 16 years old. He is on the autism spectrum, a sophomore in high school, loves video games, Godzilla, zombies, rock 'n' roll, goofy youtube videos, & those silly inflatable dancing guys that the used car dealerships use.
Next in line, "JON", is almost 13. He won a fight with lymphoma a couple of years ago. He loves comic books, The Walking Dead, Mine Craft, riding his bike, Smosh videos on youtube, listening to music on his iPod, & comedy. Here's one of his favorite's (keep in mind that he's 13, don't judge):
This brings us to number 3…my screaming, often flying monkey…"CC" will be 3 at the end of April. She is adorable and loud and opinionated and funny and sweet and today, very, very 2!
I like to think that I am a patient person.
I like to think that I am a good mother, a funny mother, I generally enjoy my children. We have fun together. But I have to admit…the toddler years can be hard! There are days when these funny little sweeties go from angel to freak show 30 seconds. These are the days when this mommy needs a time out!
I think that there are things that experienced moms often fail to convey to expecting or new moms. This is one of the areas where we, as women, fail each other!
This morning while my sweet baby girl was transforming into a possessed howler monkey because I was working at my laptop for 10 minutes while she was enjoying her favorite show on Sprout & I didn't notice that her show was over and she was ready for lunch. Then we got calmed down with a small snack (because I really had to finish what I was doing before I could make lunch), when Daddy came home on his lunch break, one of the perks of working 5 minutes from home. She, naturally, was excited to see him! She was not very excited that he couldn't spend his whole lunch hour (about 40 here) holding her due to the fact that he did need to eat. So…the screaming resumed!
ALRIGHT!!! Lunch time it is!!! We heated up some soup, put it in a bowl, sat her at the table, next to her Daddy, & enjoyed 5-8 minutes of relative quiet before Daddy had to prepare to leave the house to go back to the office.
This pattern continued while I attempted to complete a few other tasks, including a phone call (that was enjoyable with her wrapping herself around my legs & trying to stuff her head up my shirt!).
These are the things that we should be sharing with other women! (These & the scream I just heard from CC's bedroom while typing! HA!) I don't do the toddler years well, there I said it! It is H-A-R-D! While I'm being honest, let me talk about other things that we're not supposed to say out loud…I am not good at potty training!! I have all of the tools & skills, I just suck at it! I am not patient! Once I know that a child KNOWS I lose my mind when they refuse to use the bathroom! Occasional accidents I can deal with, but let me give you a fun little example. CC is starting to recognize the feeling in her tummy pre-poop. She tells me that her tummy hurts, I ask her if she thinks she needs to go poop in the potty, she says yes. It's a pretty good system! A couple of weeks ago, all signals were go…she's sitting on the potty, I'm out in the hall, outside of the bathroom.
She says "Me all done!" She has only been in there a minute. I know she hasn't gone yet. So I say, "I don't think you've been in there long enough yet honey, why don't you look at your book again?" She hops down, pulls up her leggings, hides behind the door & starts to close it.
I stop the door from closing, "What are you doing?"
"Me pooping!" I look at her pants behind her & sure enough, she has a lump in her pants!
"CC! You were already on the potty, honey! Why did you get down to poop?"
"Cuz that's how big girls do it!"
"That is NOT how big girls do it!"
I lost my fricking mind! So, she went down for a nap…I had a cup of tea.
Ladies, you need to be able to lose your mind, put your child in a safe space (whether that's a crib, swing, playpen, or gated safe room) & know that they will be fine more than 10 feet from you for as long as you need to find your mind again. And please find a friend that you can admit your imperfections to! None of us are perfect! The lady on the block whose home looks immaculate ALL OF THE TIME is hiding something crazy in a closet somewhere & probably needs someone to talk to too, I guarantee it!
People tell you all of the time to savor these precious years….they told me that with the boys too…I get it, I do…I savor the totally done with potty training, don't need gates on the stair anymore years! I admit it! I hate touching bodily fluids, when that sweet baby girl can blow her own nose, I will not miss wiping it! I don't miss wiping the boys'! There has never been a day when I'm wiping her snotty little (adorable) nose & thought "I miss when I had to pick boogers out of R's nose"…NO! Thank God they grow out of certain stages! Potty training, 2's, boogers, throwing unwanted food on my floor….get me past these years with whatever grace & dignity I have left, then I will savor the rest!
I don't want to discourage any future mothers out there. Being a mother has honestly been the biggest joy of my life, & I honestly wouldn't trade it for anything. I couldn't imagine the person I would be if I hadn't become a mother. But its okay to be honest about the days that we struggle. Its okay if everyday we don't feel like we're doing everything right. Its okay if some days you gotta put that screaming monkey in her (safe) cage (crib) & let her scream it out for a minute so that you don't lose your mind. We're all on the same team here.
Raising future adults is an important task. These are the people who will one day take care of us. If we don't take care of ourselves while taking care of them, what does it teach them about valuing themselves. We learn by example.
I think CC's finally asleep. I better eat some lunch before round 3 starts!
Have a wonderful day.
If you are out there reading this, & your day is anything like mine…stay strong, take a break, talk to who you can, & know that you are doing your best.

I'm so ridiculously tired lately. I know I'm always tired, but it feels like it's even worse. Every day it's a struggle to get out of bed. Every day it's a struggle to do the easiest things. And it makes me feel like such a failure when I don't manage to get things done, which obviously doesn't improve on things.
So sick of myself. Why can't I just be better?

RDX: 2011 Acura RDX Press Release
In tough economic times, choosing the right vehicle has never been more important. Blending a smart balance of sport and utility, the 2011 Acura RDX offers a "right sized" package matched with a turbocharged powertrain and the available sure-footedness of Acura's acclaimed Super Handling All-Wheel Drive™ - all wrapped in supple luxury.
The evolution of the luxury performance SUV took a significant leap forward with the arrival of the Acura RDX turbocharged crossover vehicle. The quick response of power from Acura's first-ever turbocharged engine along with the breakthrough technology of SH-AWD™ combine to deliver adrenaline pumping performance in an efficient SUV package.
"The RDX has always offered a unique mix of great performance, good utility, lots owner relevant technology and sharp looks," said Jeff Conrad, vice president of Acura sales. "The availability of a 2WD model with improved fuel economy and a lower price also makes the 2011 RDX an exceptionally smart choice."
The RDX continues to be the compact luxury SUV of choice for drivers with energetic lifestyles who need a responsive and sporty vehicle with plenty of utility and leading edge styling. With two models available in two trim choices, the 2011 RDX offers something for everyone. The RDX comes standard with a two-wheel-drive drivetrain which is appealing to those who live in warmer climates and who don't need the all-weather capability all-wheel drive offers. For those looking for sportier performance or all-weather capability, the RDX with SH-AWD® will be right choice for them. Both models come standard with a wide array of features and available is the Technology Package.
Externally, the 2011 RDX has an aggressive, sporty appearance thanks to bold front and rear fascias, Acura's signature grille, pronounced wheel arches, 18-inch 10-spoke aluminum wheels and upscale trim accents. On the inside, the RDX makes use of a rich blend of leather, artful stitchwork and flowing curves- paired with lots of cutting edge technology.
True to Acura's leadership in the application of advanced technology, the RDX incorporates a class-leading array of features that keep passengers informed, entertained and in control. Every RDX features as standard Bluetooth® HandsFreeLink® connectivity with Bluetooth®audio capabilities, a 7-speaker Acura Premium Sound System and a USB port that allows the connection (and charging) of items such as an iPhone® or iPod®. For those who want to be even more connected to the world around them, an available Technology Package includes the Acura Navigation System with Voice Recognition™, AcuraLink Real-Time Traffic with Traffic Rerouting™, and AcuraLink Real-Time Weather™ with radar image maps.
Based on Acura's "Safety Through Innovation" initiative, the RDX incorporates leading safety technologies including Acura's renowned Advanced Compatibility Engineering™ (ACE™) body structure, a wide array of airbags (including front, side and side curtain airbags), Vehicle Stability Assist ™ (VSA™), ABS with Brake Assist, and front seats with active head restraints.
Rated output for the 2.3L I-4 engine is 240 horsepower at 6,000 rpm with 260 lb-ft of torque at 4,500 rpm. The RDX has an EPA city/highway/combined fuel economy rating* of 19/24/21 mpg (RDX 2WD) and 17/22/19 mpg (RDX SH-AWD™) along with meeting EPA TIER 2 - BIN 5 and CARB LEV-2 ULEV emissions standards. Due in part to the decreased weight of the two-wheel-drive model, the RDX gets improved fuel economy versus the SH-AWD® model - resulting in an improvement of 2 mpg in both city and highway fuel economy.
A performance-minded Sequential SportShift 5-speed automatic transmission is standard on the RDX and an electronically-controlled Drive-by-Wire™ throttle system works with the transmission to execute exceptionally quick and smooth gear changes. The Sequential SportShift feature allows the transmission to function in a conventional automatic mode or can be manually controlled via steering-wheel-mounted paddle shifters.
Acura's exclusive Super Handling All-Wheel Drive™ (SH-AWD™) system is available on the RDX, helping it to maximize available traction while improving handling balance and responsiveness in a variety of weather conditions. SH-AWD™ distributes optimum torque not only between the front and rear axles, but also between the left and right rear wheels. In addition, SH-AWD™ utilizes torque vectoring to help reduce understeer by overdriving one of the rear wheels to create a yaw moment that enhances steering accuracy and improves cornering ability.
Precise and responsive handling is generated by fully independent front and rear suspension. The MacPherson strut (front) and multi-link (rear) suspension system is tuned for compliant control, and the suspension is assisted by large-diameter front and rear stabilizer bars for flatter cornering. Standard to the RDX is Vehicle Stability Assist™ (VSA®) with traction control to further enhance vehicle controllability.
HID front headlights (controlled by a standard Auto on/off function) team with sharp body lines, bold 18-inch 10-spoke aluminum wheels, rectangular exhaust finishers and satin body trim to give the RDX a crisp look.
Multiple storage compartments are positioned throughout the RDX interior, including a lockable dual-level center console (that is large enough to accommodate a laptop) conveniently located between the front seats. Within the center console is a movable tray along with a coin holder and a place for holding credit or gate cards.
Acura interior design has always made intuitive functionality a priority, and in the 2011 RDX all important systems and controls are intuitive and easy-to-read. The systems used most frequently - audio and cruise control - have switches positioned on the steering wheel and the HVAC buttons are located close to the driver.
The 2011 RDX has as standard an Acura Premium Sound System with AM/FM tuner, 6-disc in-dash CD player, MP3, WMA, XM® Radio, 7 speakers and a 360 watt amplifier. The audio system also features USB port and AUX jack connections for items such as an iPod®, MP3 music player, or a "jump drive" memory stick.
All 2011 RDX feature as standard a rear view camera system. A base RDX has a viewing screen that is integrated into the auto-dimming rearview mirror while a RDX with Technology Package displays the rear view image on the 8-inch color screen used for the navigation system.
With the Technology Package's AcuraLink™ Satellite Communication System and AcuraLink Real-Time Traffic™, the RDX driver can easily navigate busy freeways. In addition, the navigation system includes Traffic Rerouting™ that allows automatic rerouting around problem areas. Also included is AcuraLink Real-Time Weather™ with weather radar image maps that provide weather tracking for area-specific, continually-updated weather conditions between your current location and the final destination.
Part of the RDX Technology Package is a spectacular Acura/ELS Surround® 410-watt Premium Audio System with 10 speakers, 6-disc DVD-Audio, CD/MP3/WMA player, DTS®, AM/FM tuner, XM® Radio with Note function music reminder and Dolby® Pro Logic® II. The Acura/ELS® audio system was designed by 6-time Grammy® award winning sound engineer Elliot Scheiner. When playing DVD-Audio discs (DVD-Audio delivers 500-times higher resolution than traditional CD audio), this advanced system uses eight discreet audio channels (up from the usual two channels) to create an exceptionally accurate listening experience. The Acura/ELS Surround® audio system also features a Note function for XM® Radio that allows the driver to later recall the song title, artist, a short excerpt of the actual song along with the XM® channel that played the song.
The Technology Package includes a GPS-linked, solar-sensing, dual-zone, automatic climate control system. In total, these advanced technologies position the RDX at the cutting edge of the Entry Premium SUV segment.
Safety and Security
In addition, a special frame member located below the RDX's front bumper is designed to engage the front bumper of a lower vehicle, allowing the bumper systems of both vehicles to attenuate crash energy more efficiently. A specially engineered hood, collapsible hood hinges, breakaway wiper pivots and other features help mitigate pedestrian injury in the event of a collision with the vehicle.
Inside, the RDX has a full complement of passive safety features. Key technologies include the latest generation of dual-stage, multiple-threshold airbags for the driver and front passenger, side airbags for the driver and front passenger, along with side curtain airbags (with a rollover sensor) for all outboard occupants. The front passenger's side airbag features an Occupant Position Detection System (OPDS) to prevent airbag deployment if a child or small-stature adult leans into the deployment path. LATCH (Lower Anchors and Tethers for CHildren) child seat mounting systems allow the quick and convenient installation of child seats in the rear seats.
The 2011 Acura RDX is assembled in Marysville, Ohio and is covered by a comprehensive 4-year/50,000 mile bumper-to-bumper limited warranty and a 6-year/70,000 mile powertrain limited warranty. Additional benefits of ownership include Acura Total Luxury Care® (TLC®), which provides free 24-hour roadside assistance, concierge service and trip routing.

Today, the Kentucky Board of Education announced the names of the 5 candidates it's at the moment considering for the place of commissioner of education.
State education officers imposed these new insurance policies with out following the required authorized course of. If I was the Education Minister, I would have summoned the Education Secretary, PNGTA president, all (22) Provincial Education Advisers and provincial schooling officers liable for dealing with academics depart entitlements to a spherical desk dialogue, and kind this MESS out – once and for all. The Community College Study of Student Engagement found that 47 p.c of students at surveyed colleges labored higher than 20 hours per week, and 25 percent had kids.
The College of Education continues to develop strategies to secure funding for research, recruiting and retaining school, and for applications such as the Dean's Scholars Fellowship Program , which helps recruit among the best and brightest graduate students. You can move up North, good one much less dumb explicit person in Florida – however you'll nonetheless must take testing in irrespective of state you progress to.
As the home training neighborhood grows, so too does the help for it and the necessity to coach mother and father of its legalities. In Texas, testing has been capped, forcing the typical pupil to sit down for a hundred and twenty minutes, with no administration lasting greater than eight hours. The division delivers world-class schooling and coaching providers for individuals at each stage of their private and skilled improvement.

Thanks to attractive upcoming developments, Singapore's tourism and hospitality sectors are poised for growth.
Since March 2004, Singapore's tourism sector has enjoyed 48 months of growth in visitor arrivals. In 2008, despite the downturn in the fourth quarter, tourism receipts still achieved a record-high of S$14.8 billion. While these figures are impressive, the country is not resting on her laurels, but plans to continue boosting its appeal as a tourism destination.
Generating a buzz
Major upcoming projects include the opening of two Integrated Resorts (IRs) in 2009 and 2010, the Youth Olympic Games in 2010, and the launch of a River Safari in 2011. Internationally renowned attractions like Orchard Road and the Singapore River are also being spruced up, while the Marina Bay area now has a new addition to its skyline in the form of the Singapore Flyer, currently the world's largest observation wheel. Here's the lowdown on what to expect of Singapore's tourism landscape in the near future.
Integrated Resorts
Opening in 2009, the S$5 billion Marina Bay Sands™ Integrated Resort will house Singapore's first casino, extensive convention facilities, three hotel towers, and world-class retail, dining and entertainment attractions. Developed by Las Vegas Sands Corporation, the IR will have a strong focus on Meetings, Incentive Travel, Conventions, and Exhibitions (MICE).

Youth Olympic Games
Singapore is the privileged host of the inaugural Summer Youth Olympic Games in August 2010. The 12-day event is expected to draw 3,500 global sporting talents aged 14 to 18, and an estimated 15,000 overseas participants including athletes, officials, spectators and media. The event will certainly cast the international media spotlight on Singapore and serves as an opportune platform to position her as a sporting hub while showcasing her exciting tourist attractions.
The Singapore Flyer
Officially launched in early 2008, the Flyer offers visitors a panoramic 360-degree view of Singapore, as well as a complete leisure experience with its supporting retail, dining, and 'live' entertainment options. Already considered a new icon of the country, the Flyer is expected to attract an additional 2.5 million visitors to Singapore every year.
River Safari
Wildlife Reserve Singapore – the parent company the Jurong Bird Park, Singapore Zoo and Night Safari – recently revealed its plans to open a River Safari in Singapore in 2011. Featuring boat rides and freshwater habitat displays, the River Safari will span 89ha and cost S$140 million to develop. The first of its kind in Asia, the park is expected to draw at least 750,000 visitors annually.
There have also been interesting additions to Singapore's nightlife and dining scene, in the form of chic enclaves like Rochester Park and Tanglin Village. Moreover, the new Terminal 3 at Changi Airport and upcoming International Cruise Terminal at Marina South point to improvements in infrastructure that will enhance Singapore's ability to handle the projected surge in visitor arrivals.
Expanding capabilities
To ensure adequate supply of accommodation to meet the projected demand, the next three to four years will see an additional 12,000 hotel rooms come on-stream as new hotels are built. Of this number, more than a third will come from the two integrated resorts alone. In addition, 10 sites set apart for hotel development have already been made available for sale in the first quarter of 2009 under the Government Land Sales programme.
Success in the tourism and hospitality sector also depends on nurturing a quality workforce that is capable of delivering excellent customer service. To do so, the Singapore Workforce Development Agency, Ministry of Manpower and Singapore Tourism Board (STB) launched a Tourism Talent Plan in 2007. Under this plan, S$360 million was allocated to be spent over three years to train 74,000 tourism industry workers, thus equipping Singapore with qualified manpower to cope with higher levels of visitor arrivals. Some 6,000 students will also be trained to join the tourism industry by 2010, while a S$30-million scheme introduced by STB will support tourism establishments in developing their manpower by acquiring specialised tourism-related skills or new capabilities.
This year, STB launched a new plan dubbed BOOST (Building On Opportunities to Strengthen Tourism), which was conceived in anticipation of challenging times ahead for the tourism industry. This $90-million initiative aims to boost demand for Singapore as an ideal tourist destination, increase the government's funding towards tourism, improve the sector's capabilities, reach out to Singaporeans, enhance partnerships within the industry, as well as secure a positive future for the industry as a whole.
With the rapid rate at which major developments like the IRs are being built, employers and government agencies are upping efforts to train and recruit global talents to supplement the local workforce. A career in tourism spans many areas such as customer service, guest relations, catering and banqueting, public relations and marketing, branding and communications, events management, and more. With the ball in your court, all you need to do is to make a decision that will open up endless career opportunities for yourself in a uniquely promising industry.

The uttermost quality of a preamplifier is its transparency. The source is selected and the volume is applied, however the original audio characteristics and signal dynamics are fully retained. The L1, a dual monaural analog line level preamplifier, was developed using this approach. It is a pure class A, ultra low noise, high bandwidth, fully balanced transistor based design. It provides the shortest path between input and output, maintaining the highest speed, transparency and musicality, allowing the L1 to become a truly exceptional preamplifier.
Three L1 configurations are available:
- Monaural operation, with 8 inputs
- Stereo operation, with 8 inputs for each channel
- Monaural operation, with 16 inputs
Volume control
For each channel two R-2R ladder network in balanced mode control the volume. Tight tolerances high-grade metal film resistors as well as fast switching, distortion-free analog switches are used to adjust precisely the listening level. Each ladder has the following features:
- 20bits R-2R ladder network
- 118dB volume range in 0.5dB steps, from -100dB to +18dB
Analog Signal Path
Each channel is physically mounted on its own board to ensure the best immunity against crosstalk, and has the following features:
- Ultra low noise, high bandwidth, high slew rate design
- Pure class A, fully symmetrical design
- Fully discrete transistor based circuitry
- Phase inversion and Mono modes
Power Supply
- Dedicated discrete regulated linear power supplies
- Ultra low noise, high accuracy regulation
- Oversized mains transformer
- Shunt regulators for critical stages
- Over-current protection

South America Calling
Northern Mato Grosso Continues to Report Poor Early Soy Yields
Reports of low early harvest soybean yields continue to filter in from Mato Grosso, Brazil's top soy-producing state.
Soybean yields of 9 to 27 bushels per acre have been common across northern Mato Grosso in the first couple of weeks of the harvest.
"Some early planted beans suffered very badly from the dry weather," said Laercio Lenz, president of the farm society in Sorriso, Brazil's biggest soy district in the center-north of the state.
Rain was uncommonly patchy and inconsistent across the region in October, November and December.
Lenz noted that there are various instances of farmers not bothering to harvest soy and simply planting second-crop corn over the top.
The state of the crop is precarious, according to the Mato Grosso Agricultural Economy Institute (IMEA). It issued a survey Monday which found over 30% of the state's crop is in 'poor and terrible' condition.
However, not all Mato Grosso farms suffered equally. Early harvested crops in the south of the state have yielded good results and early harvest losses in the north have not been uniform.
While there are many farmers disappointed with yields, there are also a significant number harvesting well, with yields over 55 bpa, Lenz noted.
Overall, it's difficult to interpret this year's crop.
Normally, by late January you have a fair idea of what Mato Grosso will produce. That isn't the case this year, not only because of varied early yields but also due to massive planting delays, which extended up to a month amid the dryness. With an uncharacteristically large volume of beans planted late this year, the abundant rains since late December could have had a really positive impact.
The IMEA crop-health data does not yet indicate a recovery, but the rain certainly helped, says Nery Ribas, head agronomist at the Mato Grosso Soybean and Corn Growers Association (Aprosoja-MT)
The Aprosoja team is touring the northern regions this week to assess the impact of the El Nino-triggered dry weather.
While there certainly are issues with the state's crop, it is worth noting that IMEA is still only predicting a 3% decline in average yields on the year to 45 bpa and only a 1% reduction in statewide production to 27.8 million metric tons on greater planting.
As of Friday, the Mato Grosso soybean crop was 3.7% harvested, down from 7.5% at the same point last year, said IMEA.

EDIT: Wow just threw TOS 4.04 at Hataroid (I chose it as an "STE TOS") and the emulator switched into a Falcon mode. Is Falcon support incorporated in your Hataroid port? I didn't expected it, because the emulator didn't let me choose an Falcon TOS.
squall wrote:
- I'll add the transparency option as part of the next release
squall wrote:- That mode switch wasn't intentional
Although falcon support has been partially in from the beginning, when I first did the android version, devices weren't powerful enough to run it (most still aren't) and the emulation wasn't as compatible so it was disabled and never finished.
It should partially work if you also enable the 68030 cpu and setup enough ram and cpu freq, but you may get some crashes/issues. I do remember I didn't finish setting up the video modes properly (so higher res screens might break) and I think the dsp might have been disabled as well. It's also using the old uae cpu core, but I wanted to do another binary with the win-uae core instead.
I just tried a couple of demos (tere ra'i and the only survivor 96k as well as the racer (dune)) and they ran ok (without sound).
Chris23235 wrote:The emulator switches automatically to 68030, the 4 MB I had to enable manually. I only tried Llamazap and it boots up fine (no sound except keypress), but you can't start the game, because the Joystickemulation seems not to be implemented.

LLamaZap requires STE Joypad, it doesn't read ST joystick input. When you have compatibility issues, it's better to look into Hatari docs for clues:
http://hg.tuxfamily.org/mercurialroot/h ... ility.html
squall wrote:Ok, I've added a separate transparency option for the joystick controls to the upcoming release.
The main change though is the addition of built-in MIDI support which is something I've personally wanted for a while.
Here's a video of it in action:
If you want to help test the preview version:
I've tested this with many music programs (EditTrack, Sweet Sixteen, Band-in-a-Box, Cubase, Jazz guitarist and many more). Notator has some emulation issues (so the timing will be completely off unfortunately).
I've also tested it with a lot of games like (Police Quest 2, Bomb Jack, Leisure Suit Larry 2 and 3, etc). (I'm hoping to integrate a proper MT-32 emulator at some point in the future too).
Karate Kid 2 works, but I've noticed that it sounds off-key when played in conjunction with the ST ym sounds.
The midi output is in-tune with the mp3 posted by a user on one of the threads in this forum though. This also happens on Steem.
I suspect the original was played on a casio cz101 that was not tuned correctly (or there may be some sysex messages to tune the synth).
I've lost all my old MIDI cables so I'm just waiting for some to be delivered so I can test it out on real hardware.
So for Karate Kid 2, you should mute the ST sound output. I've included a default instrument patch for Karate Kid 2 (you should enable the option to ignore program changes as Karate Kid 2 resets the instruments on the title screen)
Does anyone have a real CZ-101 and can confirm it sounds out of tune with the ST's YM chip for Karate Kid 2?
Just some notes on the MIDI support since I haven't written any docs for it yet:
- It requires a powerful device
- Enable it in the MIDI section of the Settings
- It uses sound fonts. I've included a small one in the emulator, but you can use your own if you want higher quality sounds or sounds from a different synth
- If you get audio stutters, you can try the following to improve performance:
- Settings > Display -> Show Borders (DISABLE)
- Settings > MIDI -> Mute ST Sound
- reducing sound output rate (Settings > Sound -> Playback quality)
- reducing Max Polyphony (Settings > MIDI -> Max Polyphony)
- Settings > MIDI -> Interpolation Quality -> None
- Settings -> Sound -> Device sound buffer -> Increase it to max
squall wrote:@catmando
The SFX should still work (it works fine when I tested it). Did you enable the Mute ST Sound option? That option is really only for Karate Kid 2 since it sounds off-key (or if you have performance issues).
I'm actually still working on the Hatari 1.70 branch. There's a few things I still want to do before I properly switch over to the 1.80 branch which has STX support.
I'm also still deciding what to do about the save games since it's unlikely I can get the old ones converted across to the new format since the floppy access has changed so much.

We don't know what to do. My dad is 72 years old--VERY healthy, but fell from a ladder 10 days ago and has many broken ribs, still on ventilator, moderate head injury (he's starting to wake up and respond to commands), and C2 & T6 fractures (probably no cord involvement) and an "exploded" T12/L1 (almost certain cord involvement).... He has a right shoulder (scapula) fracture and for some unknown reason, is not moving his right arm much. He seems to wince to pain in his upper legs, but no leg movement other than from his pelvis area. They expect him to wake up completely, but are unsure of how much or little cognitive changes to expect.
The doctors are saying that he needs a halo for C2, brace for T6, and fusion surgery for T12/L1. They are recommending that we withdraw support because even if they bring him through the acute hospitalization (and they think they can), they say he will surely die of respiratory or skin pressure complications within a few months after discharge. My mom is healthy and willing to do whatever is necessary to care for him, they have excellent insurance--including long-term care insurance, and I'm trying to find out what options are available for him.
He's at a level 2 trauma center, but I don't see any evidence of a spine center or rehab unit here. We're in Northern California. Where should I go to find options for him. Is it really as hopeless as these trauma surgeons (and neurosurgeon) suggest? What should we do?
I was surfing the web and came across your site.... Is this the right place to ask these questions?
Thank you so much!

A fellow member of the SitePoint Forums asked how he could put meta description and meta keywords tags into his page's head. How can I use Custom Fields for meta description/keyword content?
I had never used Custom Fields before, but short of using a plugin to insert the meta tags, it seemed that using them would be the next best option.
Adding Custom Fields was easy enough to do in the Admin edit panel. And finding example code in the Codex was easy enough too. But the examples are for using the custom fields within a page's content, not in it's head.
Experimenting in my localhost test blog, I soon discovered that for the get_post_custom function to work it needed to be inside the Loop. Or more specifically, in this case, a Loop. Which makes obvious sense considering post_custom belongs to a post so it needs to be inside the Loop where the post information is available, :d'oh:
Custom Fields can be named just about anything, so I used:
for field names and entered some text for testing purposes.
Then in my theme's header.php file under the title tag I inserted
if (have_posts()) : the_post();
$custom_fields = get_post_custom();
$custom_meta_description = $custom_fields['meta-description'];
$custom_meta_keywords = $custom_fields['meta-keywords'];
if ( !empty($custom_meta_description[0]) )
echo "<meta name='description' content='" .
↳ htmlentities($custom_meta_description[0]) . "' />\r\n";
if ( !empty($custom_meta_keywords[0]) )
echo "<meta name='keywords' content='" .
↳ htmlentities($custom_meta_keywords[0]) . "' />\r\n";
Admittedly hackish, and not the optimal way to get this accomplished, but it is easy enough to do and it works.

We have blogged about the Creative Quarter initiative in Nottingham, most recently their launch event at the end of September. Tomorrow night, Tuesday 9 October, at Nott Tuesday at Antenna, is a chance to hear Adam Bird talk about it and what it means, and can mean, for the Tech community. Adam is Esendex' co-founder and Chief Technology Officer and has been very involved with the City in their work in this area. A great chance to hear his view and ask questions.
The Nott Tuesday meeting is actually a double event. David Vernau and Mick Dunn from Nottingham City Council will be talking about the Open Data Initiative in Nottingham. As well as the political implications, there may be opportunities for startup and businesses to use the data:
They want to use this Open Date initiative to increase transparency whilst helping to improve efficiency in their internal work processes and help stimulate local innovation to create valuable new services and applications.
I enjoyed an earlier version of their presentation at GeekUp Nottingham in August. And if you want to get dirty with some data before hand, have a look at their Nottingham Insight. Nott Tuesday starts at 6.30 at Antenna.
On the appropriately named Second Wednesday of this month, which is this Wednesday, 10 October, the group of the same name is meeting at Antenna. Nick Hayward has handed over the reins (thanks, Nick, for all your work) to Jamie Huskisson, Director of local web agency JH, and Chris Allwood, late of this parish. They promise new enthusiasm and ideas, but are also interested in your ideas for this monthly meeting in Nottingham's web industry:
we'll be having drinks starting at Antenna at 7pm. Feel free to join us in the conversation and help shape the future of 2W and it's resurgence amongst the Nottingham web scene.
Two evenings, three events, enjoy!

Sam Warburton, Justin Tipuric and Ross Moriarty are all fighting for a starting spot, while new caps Thomas Young and Olly Cracknell are both providing healthy competition.Taulupe Faletau might be struggling with a knee injury, but McBryde is happy to have a number of different options from which to choose."There is healthy competition," he told the Welsh Rugby Union's official website."Both Olly and Thomas, new faces in the back row, just add to that mix that keeps everyone on their toes. It is all about getting the balance right in that back row. We are in a healthy place at the moment and whoever gets the nod, I am sure they will perform on the day."Training has been excellent. We feel we are in a good place, and hopefully that will be reflected in the performance on Sunday." Number eight Faletau is expected to be in contention to face England in Cardiff a week on Saturday, as is lock Luke Charteris who won't face the Italians due to a fractured hand."It is obviously a big step up in terms of intensity (for squad newcomers), and they have taken to it outstandingly," added McBryde."We've got to make sure we don't get ahead of ourselves. Italy will come into the competition full of confidence having had a good result against South Africa, so they know they can perform on the big stage against a good team."We have got to be ready for it. The new coaches with Italy will want to lay down a marker as well. Everyone is aware of how important your first game is in the championship."We know they are a big threat. We have got to be on our guard. It's really about concentrating on us and what we are in control of when we go out to Rome."

The Washington Project for the Arts presents it's biennial "Options." The exhibition features young artists from the Baltimore/Washington DC area and functions as a survey of unrecognized talent. Stefanie Fedor is the curator. The show included a impressive range of media including, sculpture, drawing, audio, mix media, and video.
Heather Boaz, Jacket and Shoes
Heather Boaz, Dress, 2011
One of the most impressive offerings in the show is by the Baltimore based artist Heather Boaz. Her artworks Jacket and Shoes combine traditional clothing with metal hardware. The wearable sculptures brings a new perspective to the dialog between domestic objects, clothing, and femininity. In Shoes, the metal handles are fixed to the soles rendering the boots useless, pushing the object into a more sculptural form.
Artemis Herber, Stems, 2011
Artemis Herber constructed two sculptures Rusty Shelters and Stems. The large cardboard constructions contain multiple parts. The sculptures have smooth and simple lines, but their large size makes the viewer feel diminutive. Especially in Rusty Shelters, the combination of color with the shape and quality of the cardboard created a irresistible tactility that is rare is a cardboard sculpture.
Artemis Herber, Rusty Shelters, 2011
Jimmy Miracle shows a group of sculptures, but I am especially taken with his piece Meditations. While the larger work Beam is derivative of other artists, the small scale containment makes Meditations a original statement. The clear plastic containers which house the multicolored string, provide a reflective surface and allow different perspectives of the string to reveal themselves.
"Options 2011" is on view in Washington DC until October 29th.

Bisley ToolStor Height Adjustable Workbench - 1200 x 600 x 840 - 1140mm - BIS410219W.
- Price: £451.43 - In stock
- Model: BIS410219W
Bisley Workshop presents our Bisley ToolStor Height Adjustable Workbench - 1200 x 600 x 840 - 1140mm - BIS410237W. Our fully welded braced framework workbench provides a robust industrial work surface that is capable of supporting a top load capacity of 1200kg UDL. It has been designed to perform well and withstand most arduous production, assembly or engineering activities in the most industrial workplace environments. The BIS410219W is an 840mm to 1140mm adjustable height stationary workbench that provides the same application abilities as a fixed height bench but can be raised or lowered to suit the working height of the operator. The BIS410219W has a choice of industrial grade 40mm worktops that are 1200 x 600mm in size. The overall dimensions for this unit are 1200 x 600 x 840 - 1140mm. The BIS410219W is a UK manufactured product by Bisley and supplied fully assembled for your ease and immediate use.
The intelligent design of the BIS410219W means it can function as a standalone bench or as part of a modular installation alongside other Bisley ToolStor workshop products. The attractive design and well engineered components create a high end professional workbench that makes use of Bisley's modern and impressive manufacturing capabilities that better user ergonomics. Our patented design and construction makes this ToolStor framework workbench modern and attractive whilst also supporting some of the highest industrial specifications required in market.
Heavy Duty Workbench Frame:
Unlike competing workbench end frames that have three separate sheet steel sections that are folded to create strength and welded together, our BIS410219W end frames are constructed from a single piece of 60 x 40mm heavy gauge steel box section. This box section is laser cut, folded and then fully welded to create the traditional 'H' shape end frame but with a dramatically increased level of strength. Each end frame construction is then completed with a 60 x 40mm box section welded as a cross member for additional stability and rigidity. Durable steel box section stringers pass through the end frame through a series of cut outs, rather than just being welded to the outside surface. The three stringers connect each end frame together which subsequently creates an incredibly strong workbench frame on which a selection of 40mm worktop can be fitted.
For height adjustability, our welded end frames each house 55 x 35mm legs which slot inside the 60 x 40mm box section, thereby providing the ability to increase the working height from 840mm to 1140mm. Each 55 x 35mm internal leg has 17 threaded holes that provide height adjustments in 25mm increments and secured using the supplied fixings.
For increase user ergonomics, the end frames 550 x 800mm dimensions provide any fitted worktop with a 25mm overhang front and back and a 30mm overhand at the sides. All parts of the frame are finished in Bisley's renowned hard wearing epoxy mid texture powder coat in RAL7035 light grey.
The versatility of our 1200 x 600 x 840 - 1140mm workbench allows a choice of well designed options such as 180kg castors, ground bolt bracket and height adjustable legs. These accessories can be fitted at the time of ordering or retrospectively to suit your workspace applications as and when needed. This adjustable height static workbench comes with four heavy duty pivot motion adjustable feet on a long M10 bolt as standard. This allows for levelling on uneven floors in the most industrial workplace environments, whilst still being able to safely support a top load capacity of 1200kg UDL.
Industrial Choice of Worktops:
We offer a wide selection of industrial worktops including beech multiplex, lino, esd, stainless steel clad, solid beech and laminate. All tops are 40mm thick for the utmost durability.
Beech Multiplex (Mpx): A 40mm hardwood, resin bonded beech plywood worktop that is suitable for most industrial production and maintenance applications.
Lino: A 38mm particle board core with a 2mm marble grey linoleum surface that is bonded and edge banded. This worktop is ideal for assembly applications as it is easy to clean and is resistant to most oils, chemicals and acids.

text: Shonda Rhimes Teaches Writing For Television Workshop in 2017 K. Nicole Mills December 15, 2016 Programs/Competitions Writers and aspiring writers, this is the perfect opportunity to learn to write a television pilot from the queen who runs the world through television, Shonda Rhimes. Rhimes will be teaching an online Master Class in 2017 covering all aspects of television writing. Topics will range from crafting a pilot to running a show. "I don't believe in the phrase 'aspiring writer.' To me if you are a writer go write. This is a moment in television right now. Even if you have 5 kids and work a job, you can find 10 minutes a day to write something down. If you can write, and people can find your script, they will be thrilled to have it. If you can think of anything else you want to be almost as much as being a television writer, go be it. If you can't think of anything else, then welcome….You are one of us. You are of our people, and I cannot wait to meet you." – Shonda Rhimes For $90, Rhimes will take students through more than five hours of lessons, teaching them how to craft a script, sell a pilot, and run a writers' room. Throughout the course, Rhimes will teach writers her playbook for writing and creating hit television shows, and she will include her story bibles, pilot scripts and Grey's Anatomy pitch notes as exclusive content. You can sign up for Rhimes' course on the MasterClass website. It seems as if this could certainly be money well-spent! Rhimes, will have five series on ABC in the 2016-17 winter broadcast season: Grey'sAnatomy, Scandal, How to Get Away With Murder, The Catch, and the latest addition Still Star-Crossed. She is also in development on her first comedy pilot Toast starring Jerrika Hinton. In addition to her existing ABC lineup, Rhimes received a pilot production commitment from ABC for a new legal series currently slated for next season. She is also in negotiations with Fox 2000 for an upcoming film revolving around the online personalities known as The Dare Divas, and teamed up with Jesse Williams, Norman Lear, and Common to produce the powerful docu-series titled American Divided.
