Lego has a lot of Hobbit sets out for December, coinciding with the release of the first film in the new Tolkien trilogy. This set is particularly good, big and fun.
The only bad thing about it is the large pieces used for some of the walls. I wish they used individual bricks to build those. In fact, some of the walls are built with many bricks, showing you how to create rocky textures. But other than this, this was enjoyable to build, with a wide range of techniques and plenty of mechanical traps and fun moving elements.
It also includes a lot of minifigs: Gandalf the Grey, Dori the Dwarf, Nori the Dwarf, Ori the Dwarf, Goblin Scribe, two Goblin Soldiers and big ass The Goblin King. It's quite a big set, for $100. [Amazon and Lego Store]

JBL LSR308 8" Two-Way Powered Studio Monitor
Bi-amplified Studio Monitor with Magnetically-Shielded 8" Low Frequency Transducer and 1" Soft-Dome High Frequency Transducer and Image Control Wave Guide. Class-D 56 Watt RMS Amplifier for LF, and 56 Watt RMS Amplifier for HF. Balanced XLR and ¼" TRS Inputs with Detented Level Control, HF and LF Trim Controls.
Image Control Waveguide:
• The Image Control Waveguide was developed for JBL's new flagship M2 Master Reference Monitor and
with the introduction of the JBL 3 Series, is now included for the first time in an affordable, compact
reference monitor.
• The patent-pending design of the Image Control Waveguide precisely controls the sound emanating from
the speaker in the vertical and horizontal planes ensuring the presentation at the listening position is neutral
and accurate.
JBL Transducers are legendary for their performance.The 3 Series long-throw woofer and its damped woven composite Neodymium tweeter are designed from the ground up to reproduce the powerful transients and micro dynamics of your mix. These drivers deliver impressive deep bass and smooth high frequency response beyond the range of human hearing.
JBL's Patented Slip StreamTM low frequency port design works in concert with the woofer to produce deep bass response at all playback levels. The double-flared shape of the port is precisely engineered for greater low-frequency extension and reduced turbulence.
Big Power, Big Sound - 3 Series efficient Class D Amplifiers provide abundant power to deliver the output and dynamic headroom needed for the most demanding production styles
Professional Balanced Inputs - Balanced XLR and 6 mm TRS inputs give you the options you need to connect your 3 Series to any signal source while maintaining professional signal quality.
Selectable Input Sensitivity - The -10 dB/+4 dB sensitivity switch ensures compatibility with a broad range of signal sources, allowing you to connect the 3 Series to high output professional gear without any danger of input overload.
LF Trim and HF Trim "TRIM" switches for both the Low and High Frequencies give you excellent control over the 3 Series sound in "your" room. Use these to fine-tune the amount of bass and treble you hear to compensate for room acoustics, program material and your personal taste.
JBL Professional Reliability - Prior to becoming a production-ready design, each 3 Series model is subjected to JBL's tough 100 hour power test, in which the speaker is required to play continually at full output for 100 hours without failure. This demanding test ensures your 3 Series speakers will deliver years of reliable performance.
JBL LSR Design - Your Music Needs a Point of Reference - While most manufacturers take only a single on axis measurement of the speaker's performance, this doesn't tell how it will sound in your room. JBL's LSR Linear Spatial Reference design criteria requires seventy-two measurements yielding more than 1,200 times more data, enabling JBL to engineer a speaker that "sounds right" in any working space. With LSR design, 3 Series Studio Monitors deliver superior accuracy regardless of the size and shape of your room, so your mixes "hit their mark" when heard on any playback system.
Deep Pedigree - The impressive performance of the 3 Series Reference Monitors is the result of JBL's development of its flagship M2 Master Reference Monitor

What Is Lightning?
Many people know the story of Benjamin Franklin flying a kite in a rainstorm. At the tip of his kite, Franklin attached a pointed metal piece. Then at the end of the kite string, he fastened an iron key. Lightning struck the metal piece on the top of the kite, and Franklin received an electrical shock when he placed his knuckle near the metal key. Franklin was lucky to live through his discovery that lightning, indeed, was electricity.
Lightning forms high up in the atmosphere at altitudes of 15,000 to 25,000 feet. At this altitude, as the air rises and descends, some droplets of water stored in clouds freeze into ice. As the particles of ice move past each other, an electrical charge is generated. Particles with a positive charge travel towards the top of the cloud. Particles with a negative charge drop towards the middle and bottom of the cloud. As this cloud travels over the Earth's surface, it can attract positively charged particles on the Earth's surface.
The negatively charged particles stored up in the cloud may eventually travel to the ground in the form of lightning. As the charge travels towards the Earth, it creates a pathway, or channel. The charge traveling along this pathway is what we see as lightning. Sometimes a charge will travel back from the Earth to the cloud through the same channel that it traveled down towards the Earth. In fact, lightning does not just travel between clouds and the Earth. Lightning can travel from cloud to cloud and from cloud to air, as well.
Lightning can also start from the large positive charge near the top of a storm cloud. Positively charged lightning is very dangerous as it can take people by surprise. Negatively charged lightning tends to strike around the center of a storm. Positively charged lightning may strike up to ten miles away from the center of a storm. It may strike areas ahead of the storm's path or behind the storm's path.
Thunder is created by lightning. When an electrical charge large enough to cause lightning travels through the air, it generates a great deal of heat. The air around a bolt of lightning heats up to 50,000°F! When air gets that hot that quickly, it expands rapidly and causes thunder.
Each year, lightning strikes the Earth more than 20 million times. With that much lightning activity, it is important to know how to stay safe when there is lightning in the air. The National Weather Service recommends following the "30/30 rule." Go inside if you see lightning and hear thunder. If you cannot count to 30 between seeing lightning and hearing thunder, remain inside. After you hear the last growl of thunder, wait for 30 minutes before going outside. Take thunderstorms seriously and find shelter.
- What is lightning? Draw a diagram of a storm cloud. Show how lightning is generated inside a cloud and how the top of the cloud is different from the middle and bottom of the cloud. Diagram a bolt of lightning striking the Earth from a storm cloud. Write a few sentences that explain the different parts of your diagram.
- What are two different kinds of lightning? How are they different?
- You might have noticed that some buildings have a lightning rod on the rooftop. A lightning rod is a metal pole that extends above the height of the roof. What purpose might a lightning rod serve? Write a sentence or two to explain your answer.

Third Age Learners of Foreign Languages Edited by: Danuta Gabrys-Barker

People are increasingly reaching the so-called third age, a period when seniors search for a renewed purpose to life and spend time undertaking activities that they consider motivating, such as the learning of a foreign language. The study of language learning among aging populations has become a fast-growing area of research and this book is one of the first attempts to bring together what we know about this age group and their profiles as foreign language learners. Contributors to the volume discuss the issue from various psychological, neurological and pedagogical perspectives. Each of the chapters provides an updated theoretical background and offers some initial conclusions on the basis of original empirical studies carried out. Chapters challenge certain familiar preconceptions and assumptions about senior learners, offer the reader ideas for future research in this under-studied area and provide some practical advice for applying the proposals and solutions offered in real foreign language third-age classrooms.
Danuta Gabrys-Barker's edited anthology reinforces Mark Twain's claim that "age is an issue of mind over matter. If you don't mind, it doesn't matter." It inspires third age learners to take up the language learning gauntlet and reinforces the notion that one is never too old to learn something new!- Tammy Gregersen, University of Northern Iowa, USA
This is an excellent contribution to challenge the quality of foreign language (FL) learning/teaching approaches offered in a broad spectrum of educational programmes for senior citizens. Its rich, extremely useful and multidisciplinary content provides important insights into older learners' profiles, shows the added value of FL learning, and highlights the need for trained instructors. It is a mandatory book for senior FL education and a perfect guidebook to improve self-awareness of those experiencing ageing processes.- Maria da Graça Pinto, University of Porto, Portugal
Danuta Gabrys-Barker has made an important contribution to TESOL with her edited volume on language teaching and the third-age learner...this collection provides an excellent and timely overview of the current state of knowledge on issues related to the process of third-age language learning.- SSLLT 8 (4) 2018 - Dorota Werbinska, Pomeranian University in Slupsk, Poland
Danuta Gabrys-Barker is Professor of English at the University of Silesia, Katowice, Poland, where she lectures and supervises MA and PhD theses in applied linguistics and psycholinguistics, with a particular focus on second language acquisition and multilingualism. She has published numerous articles and books including The Affective Dimension in Second Language Acquisition (co-edited with Joanna Bielska, 2013) and Morphosyntactic Issues in Second Language Acquisition (2008).

A short-scale bass that's ideal for bassists with flair.
Fender introduces a new model of what is surely one of its rarest-ever instruments, the semi-hollow Starcaster Bass. Only a handful of prototype models appeared during the mid 1970s, unusually distinctive as the only offset semi-hollow bass guitar in Fender history (to say nothing of its two enormous humbucking pickups). After decades of virtually fabled status, the Starcaster Bass now reappears in electrifying Modern Player form with superior sound, build and beauty ideal for bassists with a flair for appealingly unconventional Fender style.
The Fender Starcaster Bass guitar's thin semi-hollow offset body has a bound maple top and back, with stylish bound f-holes. A short-scale bass (30"), it has a "C"-shaped maple neck topped by the distinctively curvaceous Starcaster headstock, and a 9.5"-radius maple fingerboard with 22 medium jumbo frets and black-dot inlays. Other premium features include dual Fender Wide Range humbucking bass pickups with three-way toggle switching, four skirted "amp"-style control knobs (volume and tone for each pickup) and a four-saddle Fender Hi-Mass bridge.

Great effort by the guys in Green and White. I will let the video do the talking.
Not a good weekend by the guys wearing the stripes, I thought that Scott Bokal and Brian Thul were absolutely brutal. After further review, it was more Scott Bokal that was the "weak link" in that officiating crew. I made a comment on the UND game chat that after UND went up 3-1 that DU would come out and get the next three power plays in a row. Actually, the Pioneers got the next four power plays in a row.
Ironically, this is also this same crew that whistled UND for seven consecutive penalties in a row during the November 21, 2009 game, which UND lost 3-2. That resulted in both officials being disciplined by the WCHA.
Of course the WCHA doesn't officially make announcements on issues like this, because they don't like to publicly discipline their officials. They take care of matters in house. I was able to confirm this through two sources that had knowledge of the situation.
They will only publicly discipline someone if they make a bomb threat in an airport.
They will only publicly discipline someone if they make a bomb threat in an airport.
This was also a game where Ben Blood was tripped, but the on ice officials incorrectly ended up putting Blood in the penalty box.
According the UND SID Jayson Hajdu, the officials apologized for their mistake after the game for the egregious mistake. I hope going forward that the NCHC doesn't think that they need to employ any of these people in the new league, neither of these two guys deserved to officiate in the NCHC.
During the run of four consecutive minor penalties, the two minute minor for too many men on the ice was funny because, they blew the whistle while DU had possession of the puckl. I even remember the announcers wondering why the play was blown dead.
I included a few clips to prove my point. Steph Pattyn was assessed one of the weakest cross-checking penalty I have ever witnessed in my life; during the third period, that was an absolute joke. You can see the camera pan to the coaches on the bench and look at the players expression as well as assistant coach Dane Jackson.
Scott Mayfield should be sitting out the first game of next weekend's series against the Minnesota Gophers after his horse collar on UND forward Connor Gaarder, the sophomore pugilist wasn't happy with that move, he followed up that bush league horse collar by butt-ending Gaarder twice. Then luckily for Mayfield, he is rescued by the officials before Andrew MacWilliam was able to take a pound of flesh from him.

…that sells for around $100! I thought I'd give it a whirl myself and ended up with this pair of canvases.
It's definitely different than the copy cat piece and the original, but I love how they turned out. Best of all, the technique is simple, quick and easily adapted to fit the colors of your space.
I took two 16x20 canvases and spray painted them Heirloom White. One was actually an "OOPS" canvas from a few projects ago. Spray paint is your friend!
I got out a bunch of my acrylic paints and started mixing and matching them on these lovely artist palettes…errr…brown paper bags.
Then I started to draw the branches with brown paint and a thin brush. Tristin used a paint pen, which would have been helpful. Either way works, of course.
Next, I just started adding circles, here, there and everywhere in different sizes and colors until I was happy with the look.
At first, I thought I wanted to put these in the family room, but they just didn't work there. Too small for that big space. Today, I tried to put them in the guest bedroom and I'm liking it much better there.
Of course, they're just propped up for now, but I'm trying to get a sense if I like them there or not. I can't decide if I like the bright POPS of color. Maybe I should do a watered down wash of acrylic paint to either slightly darken them or lighten them. The original from WM has a dirty/aged quality that I kind of like, but I'm not sure if it would really go in this room. Thoughts?
So, that's my latest adventure in homemade art on the cheap. Thanks to Tristin from Two Girls Being Crafty for the inspiration!
I'm linking this post up to the below parties! Check them out for some fabulous inspiration!

War Hero To Receive Ceremonial Burial Denied 39 Years Ago
March 7, 1990
War Hero To Receive Ceremonial Burial Denied 39 Years Ago
For the past 39 years, the remains of a Congressional Medal of Honor recipient, Sgt. Cornelius Charlton of the U.S. Army, have been resting in a long-abandoned family cemetery.
A native of East Gulf near Beckley, Sgt. Charlton was killed in action during this country's "police action" in Korea on March 15, 1951. According to his brother, Arthur L. Charlton of Coalwood, the deceased was denied a ceremonial burial at Virginia's Arlington National Cemetery, because he was black.
His family brought his remains to the Bryant Memorial Cemetery located out on W.V. Highway 120, between Bramwell and Pocahontas for burial, where other relatives of Charlton's mother were buried.
Charlton was posthumously awarded the Medal of Honor by Congress, the nation's highest award for valor. Also, a bridge was named in his honor, located seven miles outside of Princeton (Bluestone Gorge); a tree grows in the Bronx, NY. dedicated to his memory and a ferry boat bore his name.
On March 10, Sgt. Charlton's body will be reinterred close to his place of birth as Beckley's American Legion Post 32 and an honor guard from Fort Knox, KY, give the forgotten hero the burial he deserved.
Release forms have been obtained by Post 32 Commander John E. Shumate to exhume Charlton's body and bring it back to Raleigh County.
Shumate and his post's efforts are part of a national campaign organized by the Medal of Honor Society and chartered by the U.S. Congress called America Discovers Her Hometown Medal of Honor Heroes.
Last July 4, the Medal of Honor Society started a two-year drive to locate the "lost heroes." The project calls for students and communities to join in the research effort.
A January article in the Beckley newspaper, "Register-Herald," which alerted readers of the campaign, led to the discovery of Charlton's grave. Shumate said.
A memorial reception will be held at the Melton Mortuary, March 9, between 7 and 9 p.m., and all are welcome, Shumate said. The hero's Medal of Honor will be on display, along with his Purple Heart and other mementos.
A funeral will be held Saturday at 11 a.m. before the remains arc laid to rest at the American Legion Cemetery. The service will be conducted by Fort Knox, KY, Chaplain Russell Tipkin. American Legion Post 32 Commander John Shumate will lead the Pledge of Allegiance and Helen Dobson will sing a medley of songs.
Remarks will be delivered by U.S. Rep. Nick Jo Rahall, U.S. Sen. Jay Rockefeller, West Virginia Secretary of State Ken Hechler and Arthur Charlton, the deceased soldier's brother.
Sgt. Charlton was remembered by his mother, 92-year-old Clara Charlton of Bronx, NY. as a stay-at- home sort in his youth.
Already a veteran of World War II, Charlton died when he fought to the top of a ridge that had been holding up a regiment for three days.
A narrative released by the Medal of Honor Society said Charlton's stint showed "indomitable courage, superb leadership, and gallant self- sacrifice."
"He had an office job, but he volunteered for combat," his brother said.
According to John Shumate, a memorial trust fund has been set up in the name of Sgt. Charlton.
Flowers may be sent to the Melton Mortuary at 1200 Harper Road, and contributions for the transfer of the remains and maintenance of the new grave may be sent to the American Legion Cemetery Fund, 210 Westwood Drive, Beckley. WV, 25801.

Maybe this is just a mean-spirited mash-up of a guy who really does look like The Simpsons' Monty Burns and who happens to be very rich. Nevertheless, the mere act of caricaturing rich Jews carries with it the stench of antisemitism. Moreover, to the extent this mash-up doesn't stop with a picture comparison but, instead, presents the Rothschilds as the secret puppet-masters people behind all wars and all money . . . well, I have to say that there's a strong whiff of the Protocols of the Elders of Zion behind this one.
What's your opinion?

Breaking NewsEx-New England Patriots star Aaron Hernandez CONFESSED that he fired the shots that killed Odin Lloyd ... this according to a police document that cites a witness ... who cites another witness.
OK, so it's a confession that's 3 degrees removed from Aaron Hernandez ... but cops in Miramar, Florida believed the tip was good enough to bring to a judge in an effort to get a search warrant connected with the investigation.
First, some background -- prosecutors in the murder case believe Carlos Ortiz and Ernest Wallace were with Hernandez when Lloyd was murdered. Both Ortiz and Wallace are currently in custody.
Now, according to documents filed by the Miramar Police Dept., Ortiz told investigators ... that Wallace, told him ... that Hernandez told him that he shot Lloyd.
You follow that?
It's double hearsay, to say the least ... but with life sentences on the line, it might not be the last time these guys (allegedly) point the finger at each other.
For his part, Hernandez insists he's not guilty.

peloton / platoon
Unless you follow the sport of cycling, you are not likely to run across the word peloton, which means a group of cyclists, usually the main mass of cyclists in the race.
Peloton is a French word. It's literal meaning is little ball and in this sense it dates to the early 15th century in French.
By 1616 the French were using the word to mean a small group of soldiers, presumably because a small group of soldiers in tight formation resembled a ball. The word platoon is a variant of peloton, appearing as ploton in Middle French by 1572 and as plauton by 1611.
Platoon was the first form to be borrowed into English. From Robert Monro's 1637 His Expedition With The Worthy Scots Regiment Called Mac-keyes:
Eight Corporall-ships of Musketiers, being thirty-two Rots divided in foure Plottons, every Plotton being eight in front, led off by a Captaine.
We see the -oon ending by 1687, when John Dryden uses it in his translation of Louis Maimbourg's History of the League:
Thus was the Royal Army Marshall'd, which consisted of betwixt 9 and 10000 Foot, and 2800 Horse, divided into seven Squadrons, each of them with a Plotoon of Forlorn Hope before them.
By 1734 the modern spelling of platoon was in use.
The military sense of peloton made the jump to English a bit later, by the beginning of the 18th century. A Military and Sea Dictionary of 1702 cross-references it with the word platoon. And there is this from Nicholas Tindal's 1744 translation of Rapin de Thoyras' History of England:
Before he suffered any peloton of his battalion to discharge.
As for cycling, the French were using peloton in the cycling sense by 1884 and this sense had transferred over to English by the mid-20th century. From Cycling magazine of 12 July 1939:
A prominent worker at the head of the peloton throughout the race.

City of Lincoln
Mayor's Office
2006 Media Releases
Mayor Coleen J. Seng announced today that an agreement has been reached with Hy-Vee Inc. for development of a new Hy-Vee supermarket project on the northwest corner of North 84th and Holdrege streets. The seven-acre development project will include an 84,500-square-foot grocery store; an attached wine and spirit store; and a Hy-Vee gas station. The store will employ about 400 workers.
"This $15 million project is great news for residents of northeast Lincoln and the entire community," said Mayor Seng. "I want to thank Hy-Vee for its continued investment in our City. This new store will serve as an important anchor to draw even more development to this area."
The Hy-Vee development will not require City Council action because it is already zoned properly and is within the City limits. The Comprehensive Plan designates the site for a "community center" development of 300,000 to a million square feet of retail and service businesses. Hy-Vee will serve as an anchor store for the shopping center. Hy-Vee is purchasing private property for the project. Site preparation and construction are expected to begin in spring 2007.
Construction of another new Hy-Vee was announced in June. A $15 million, 78,000-square-foot supermarket will be built on the north side of "O" Street between 50th and 52nd streets. Work at that site is expected to begin in late fall.
"It gives me great pleasure to announce Hy-Vee's intention to build another state-of-the-art supermarket in Lincoln," said Hy-Vee Executive Vice President Charlie Bell. "The fact that we will construct two projects of such magnitude simultaneously underscores our commitment to this community. Lincoln residents have supported us since we opened our first store in 1982, and we are excited to show our gratitude with two new stores that will feature the latest innovations in retailing."
Both new stores will feature photo processing services; drive-up pharmacies; a variety of dining opportunities; expanded departments for fresh-cut meat, organic produce, gourmet salads and desserts; Hy-Vee Club rooms for classes and meetings; and baby departments that include organic and natural products, equipment and toys.
Hy-Vee, Inc. is an employee-owned corporation operating 224 retail stores in seven Midwestern states. For 2005, the company recorded total sales of $4.9 billion, ranking it among the top 20 supermarket chains and the top 35 private companies in the U.S.

NEW LONDON, Conn. – Senior Jimmy Bartolotta iced MIT's first-ever 3-0 start to NEWMAC play with four free-throws in the final 30 seconds as the Engineers held off a late rally by Coast Guard to win its second league date on the road, 75-72. The Engineers trailed 9-0 six minutes into the action, but rallied to equal their entire conference win total of last year.
MIT (11-4, 3-0) senior Billy Johnson led all scorers with 25 points on 8-of-12 shooting, including 4-of-6 from three-point range. The deep ball plagued Coast Guard (7-7, 0-3) all evening as the Engineers finished a blistering 13-of-23 from beyond the arc as a team.
Bartolotta added 24 points for the Cardinal and Gray on 5-of-10 shooting. He scored 18 of his points in the second half, while doing most of his damage at the free-throw line where he closed 11-of-13. Bartolotta added a game and season-high 12 rebounds for the monster double-double.
The Bears were paced by senior Craig Johnson, who scored 14 of his team-high 23 points in the second half. Coast Guard, and specifically Johnson, took advantage of a small MIT lineup as Billy Johnson fouled out with less than five minutes remaining in regulation. Trailing 70-60, the Bears scored nine straight points and pulled within one following Brett Huntley's jumper with 1:12 on the clock. Although Johnson converted an uncontested lay-up with three seconds to go, Bartolotta's proficiency at the charity stripe ensured MIT's first four-game winning streak in three years.
Freshman Jamie Karraker scored in double figures for the fifth time in six games as he knocked down 4-of-8 from three-point range en route to 14 points. Eric Zuk drilled 2-of-3 from deep in finishing with seven points, while the Engineers maintained their lethal accuracy from the floor. MIT shot 59.1% from three-point land against Coast Guard and raised its season percentage to an astounding 42.6%.
A three off the hand of Zuk at 14:25 of the first half snapped a 9-0 run for Coast Guard to open the game, although MIT still trailed by nine with seven minutes left in the frame. Billy Johnson sparked a late rally for the Engineers with eight points in a two-minute stretch. His second three in as many attempts gave MIT a 34-32 lead with 1:35 left. Craig Johnson scored four consecutive points to provide the Bears with a two-point lead at the break.

Over the past few years, the discovery and development of naturally occurring fluorescent proteins and mutated derivatives have rapidly advanced to center stage in the investigation of a wide spectrum of intracellular processes in living organisms. These biological probes have provided scientists with the ability to visualize, monitor, and track individual molecules with high spatial and temporal resolution in both steady-state and kinetic experiments. A variety of marine organisms have been the source of more than 25 fluorescent proteins and their analogs, which arm the investigator with a balanced palette of non-invasive biological probes for single, dual, and multispectral fluorescence analysis. Among the advantages of fluorescent proteins over the traditional organic and new semiconductor probes described above is their response to a wider variety of biological events and signals. Coupled with the ability to specifically target fluorescent probes in subcellular compartments, the extremely low or absent photodynamic toxicity, and the widespread compatibility with tissues and intact organisms, these biological macromolecules offer an exciting new frontier in live-cell imaging.
A culture of Indian Muntjac fibroblast cells (illustrated above) was transfected with a DsRed-Mitochondria plasmid subcellular localization vector to target cellular mitochondria. Stable transfectants were isolated and grown into log phase before being fixed, permeabilized, and labeled with DAPI and Alexa Fluor 488 conjugated to phalloidin, targeting DNA in the cell nucleus and the F-actin cytoskeletal network, respectively. Images were recorded in grayscale with a QImaging Retiga Fast-EXi camera system coupled to an Olympus BX-51 microscope equipped with bandpass emission fluorescence filter optical blocks provided by Omega Optical. During the processing stage, individual image channels were pseudocolored with RGB values corresponding to each of the fluorophore emission spectral profiles.

LSA Hopeful Faces Financial Restructuring
LISA Airplanes' amphibious AKOYA LSA turned heads at AirVenture Oshkosh 2012, may have prompted some head scratching with its $350,000 price tag, and may now add some head shaking as the company enters receivership "to protect its future." Receivership is a type of corporate bankruptcy in which a court-appointed "receiver" is given the responsibility to recoup unpaid loans owed by the company. LISA says that it was engaged in fundraising negotiations in July "bound to the commercial development of the company" that were meant to provide the manufacturer with progressive long-term funding. But "selected investors were not able to fulfill their commitment." LISA describes its receivership as a "period of transition" and says customer deposits are unaffected.
According to the company, when long-term financing negotiations fell through, the company turned to its historical shareholders. Those investors then balked at securing LISA's financial plan. The company's founders then decided to seek, and a�court has granted, the company a six-month period of observation under receivership. The company says that managers will be supported during the six-month period��"to ensure a fast resumption of every activity." The period also creates "investment opportunities" as the company seeks the funding to support a plan aimed at launching the AKOYA in a worldwide market.�LISA says clients' deposits are held "under a bank warranty," and the current situation "has no impact" on those deposits.

(CNN) -- Missing French motorcyclist Pascal Terry has been found dead -- organizers of the Dakar Rally said on Wednesday.
A statement on the race's official Web site www.dakar.com said the announcement of Terry's death was made with "great sadness."
It is the first fatality on this year's Dakar Rally, which has relocated to Argentina and Chile for its 31st edition.
The 49-year-old Terry had gone missing during the second stage on Sunday between Santa Rosa and Puerto Madrid.
He was finally located in the early hours of Wednesday morning as the drivers and motorbikes prepared for the fifth leg from Neuquen to San Rafael.
Terry, who was competing in the grueling rally for the first time, was found in dense vegetation, 15 meters from his bike. He had taken his helmet off and had sought shade, but had food and water with him.
Local police are to carry out an investigation into the cause of his death.
Meanwhile, American Jonah Street won the fifth stage to close the gap on overall motorcycle leader Marc Coma in the general standings.
Street, second overall, beat Dutchman Frans Verhoeven by five minutes 53 seconds, with Chilean Francisco Lopez back in third.
The result meant Street made up over 15 minutes on Coma, after the Spaniard had a puncture at the beginning of the stage, although he still holds a lead of over 27 minutes.
The rally started in Buenos Aires on January 3 and finishes back in the Argentine capital on January 17.
It is being staged in South America for the first time after terrorism threats caused last year's event, traditionally finishing in the Senegalese capital of Dakar, to be called off.

Airlines: Background
The nation's airline industry -- including carriers Delta, American and United --endured a tough decade after the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001. Terrorism fears, security costs and fluctuating fuel prices caused revenues to decline and drove some U.S. carriers into bankruptcy. The airlines have tried to improve their situation in ways big and small, from adding bag fees to ramping up federal lobbying efforts. The embattled industry still faces numerous challenges, including still tighter security after an attempted Christmas Day 2009 terrorist attack.
The airline industry donated nearly $3.6 million at the federal level during the 2014 election cycle and spent nearly $26.5 million on lobbying efforts in 2014.
With 2010 being the exception, Republicans have received a larger percentage of contributions from the industry since the 1998 election cycle. In 2014, Republicans received 59 percent of industry contributions to candidates and parties, while Democrats were given just 41 percent. From 1990 through 2014, the GOP has reeled in 57 percent of the industry's donations.
In contrast, the Air Line Pilots Association -- a labor organization that lobbies heavily on airline security and labor issues -- made around $2.55 million in campaign contributions in 2014 with 55 percent going to Democrats and 33 percent going to Republicans.
One reason for the extensive lobbying is that the airlines operate in a highly regulated market and require government approval for certain actions, including mergers. After going bankrupt in 2005, Delta and Northwest announced a merger in 2008. That year, Delta spent $5.4 million on federal lobbying and Northwest spent $4.9 million, in each case three times what they spent the year before. It paid off. Delta is now the largest airline in the world. American Airlines and US Airways completed a merger in late 2013. The two companies spent more than $10 million lobbying that year.
Congress' lack of action to change how airlines operate in the face of consumer dissatisfaction has helped fuel the perception that Congress is too cozy with the airline industry. In fact, an April 2015 Politico investigation from April 2015 found that House Transportation and Infrastructure Committee Chairman Bill Shuster (R-Pa.) was dating a top lobbyist from Airlines for America -- a lobbying group that counts the big industry names, such as Delta Airlines, United, and JetBlue Airways, as members.
Issues from in-flight telephone calls to forthcoming rules on greenhouse gas emissions from airplanes to the Open Skies Agreement with two Middle East nations that prohibits government intervention in certain commercial decisions -- these and more give the industry plenty of reasons to interact with Washington.

I am back to the normal posting cycle and most importantly, the comfort of my home.
Let's just say that I am just very happy to be home, so much so that I was practically lying there on my bed and couch for the whole weekend–doing nothing and consuming only Indomie instant noodles but still feeling utterly happy.
Happiness lies in the fact that I can just relax and sleep on my own bed, under my own roof, and be with my LK…it's a bliss.
Anyway, I am also glad that I didn't have to make something just for the sake of creating new content for my blog; I have quite a few recipes saved in my draft–dishes that I'd made prior to my recent trips but haven't had a chance to post, for example, this luscious looking tropical fruit salad…
If you recall, I made some jerk chicken skewers with mandarin oranges salsa, so this fruit salad was the leftover result of that post.
I tossed in baby shrimps, a mango, topped the fruit salad with toasted coconut and got a healthy and light meal.
This is especially refreshing for those in Southern California now because of the heat wave, so here is the recipe to share with you.

TIME Magazine's iconic covers have been an indelible part of the pop culture and media fabric since the journal's inception back in 1923. And from 1952 onwards, the magazine has covered humanity's various forays into space, from early speculations about colonizing other planets right through to our current efforts on Mars. And now, to commemorate these covers, TIME has published a gallery of some of their favorites.
Their covers chronicle a number of historical events, including the launch of Sputnik, the Apollo Program, the catastrophic Space Shuttle disasters, and much more. But it's their very first space-themed issue from 1952 that's the most memorable:
The practical rocket men fear that their gradual march toward space may disappoint the oversold public. All the necessary, cautious first steps (a small missile shot into an orbit, a hit on the moon with a small payload, etc.) are a long way from manned space ships. But Dr. [Werner] von Braun (of the V-2s), who would hurry the cautious missile men along, says that manned space flight "is as sure as the rising of the sun." He tells just how the U.S. military can establish a "satellite space station" in an orbit around the earth, and he insists that such a station could dominate mankind.
Check out the entire gallery here.

text: Sussex CC cut positions while board approved construction Six positions eliminated this year, more jobs left unfilled for fall By Nathan MaybergNewton — Over the past three years, 28 positions have been eliminated at Sussex Community College while a $2.88 million construction project was approved and more than $800,000 in contracts for the Sparta-based CP Engineers were awarded by the college board of trustees.This past spring, the board and administration agreed to cut six positions. When school starts this fall, there will be also be six adjunct professors without classes to teach at the college, said Hank Pomerantz, a psychology professor and president of the college's adjunct union.There are 171 adjunct professors at Sussex Community College."Many had reduced courseloads and many had reduced class sizes," Pomerantz said of the adjunct staff, who are paid based on the credit hours they teach. Some will also be teaching classes with more students, as there will be less classrooms available.The main student building targeted for the construction has already been cleared in anticipation of the work, he said. The theatre will be holding a class with up to 72 students, he said.Some classes will have as many as 50 students, he said.Maureen Murphy-Smolka, president of the college's faculty union declined to comment for the story.Meanwhile, the $2.88 million construction project which entails overhauling the air conditioning system, installing new windows and buttressing steal beams, is on hold while a second law firm reviews the bid process.The Sussex Community College Board of School Estimate has delayed signing off on the bid while the review is being done. College officials expect the review to be completed as early as next week.The bid by Newton-based Echelon Services has come under scrutiny as it was the only firm to bid on the project.The bid specifications were written by CP Engineers, which was paying former trustee Glen Vetrano while he was still on the board. Vetrano resigned over the apparent conflict of interest. Board president Glenn Gavan has worked as an attorney for the engineering firm and has overseen meetings where CP Engineers was awarded contracts. He voted to bring the firm on as the college's engineers last year, though he as abstained from contracts given to the firm since."Obviously, they made some grievous mistakes," Pomerantz said. "I don't believe any of the mistakes were intentional," he said. "There was some carelesness."Pomerantz said the construction project was needed but questioned how the cost estimate went up from $2 million to $2.6 million and how the bid came in even higher. "There is an absolute need for it. The building has to be restored in some respects to be safer. We need windows." Some of the windows have notes not to move them, he said. Each room has an individual cooling system, he said.Pomerantz said the whole process should be redone.Sussex County Administrator John Eskilson said the Sussex County Community College Board of School Estimate has not approved the capital ordinance required to allow the college to amend its budget and proceed with the construction. The authorization for the financing has been discussed by the board, but no action will be taken until "More information is made available," Eskilson said. "Collectively, they are waiting for the report by the law firm to be released," he said.Pomerantz has seen a reduction in the number of students at the college over the past five years and believes that could affect the college's finances further in the future."It's cyclical," he said.

The Rockford Area Arts Council loves to work on projects that help us fulfill our mission to support, promote and develop the arts for everyone. When the idea of "Out of the Box" was brought to me by our friends Nancee Long and Don Gillingham of Rockford Lutheran, we jumped at the chance to be involved.
INSIDE: About the series

The Rockford Area Arts Council loves to work on projects that help us fulfill our mission to support, promote and develop the arts for everyone. When the idea of "Out of the Box" was brought to me by our friends Nancee Long and Don Gillingham of Rockford Lutheran, we jumped at the chance to be involved.
In 2012 Rockford Lutheran's "Hometown History" was the recipient of the RAAC Mayor's Arts Award for event. Darcy Hill did an incredible job of telling our local history, a rare insight, through the artistic endeavor of a musical presented by Lutheran students for other area students. We can't wait to see the musical she has written about Frank Lloyd Wright which was the spark for this citywide initiative.
To see so many organizations come to the table is a testament to the quality of Rockford Lutheran's previous work. While the projects, performances and activities are varied, at the core of all of them is some form of artistic expression. The arts are a way for individuals to express themselves that has long-lasting positive effects on other areas of their lives.
According to research conducted by Americans for the Arts, youth who participate in the arts as little as three hours a week, three days are four times more likely to excel at academic achievement, three times more likely to be class officers, four times more likely to participate in math and science fairs, three times more likely to have outstanding school attendance, four times more likely to win an award for writing an essay or poem and four times more likely to be committed to the community through service projects.
This is evidence that the arts build strong, creative individuals who are then empowered to follow their dreams and build strong, creative communities.
At 6 p.m. Tuesday, May 7 at Court Street United Methodist Church, the Council Choraleers under the direction of Dorothy Paige-Turner will be performing songs about peace and how we can all be part of a diverse and wonderful world living in harmony. The Council Choraleers are a group of fifth and sixth graders from different schools. This exciting and unique performing experience is an opportunity to heighten community awareness of the enormous artistic talent of our youth.
It has been so exciting to see how an idea around a man's genius has brought so many groups together who may have not thought to do so previously. It has built a sense of community among the participating organizations. It has given us a focus on the creative spirit that thrives in our community but sometimes isn't always highlighted. May is going to be a great month in the Rockford region.
Frank Lloyd Wright himself made this connection between the arts and his work, "Every great architect is — necessarily — a great poet. He must be a great original interpreter of his time, his day, his age."
The work of "Out of the Box" is doing just that, it is an interpretation of how our entire community is willing and able to rally around something that spotlights our assets.

Rockford — Out of the Box is a program to celebrate innovation and creativity. In May, civic and community organizations throughout the Rock River Valley will sponsor events and activities that celebrate the creative spirit that built our communities. There are at least 33 partners — the list is growing — and 54 events scheduled.
The Rockford Register Star will publish guest columns from some of those partners this week. If you want to know more about the program, go to rockfordlutheran.org/outofthebox.

Expect black cutworm to be a problem this spring with late-planted corn due to cool, wet weather. "Black cutworm will be a real issue this year because of where the heat units are," reports Chris Cook, vice president of field agronomy, Syngenta. "We recommend that growers get out there to scout as soon as the corn is in the ground and coming up."
In addition to delayed corn planting, other risk factors for black cutworm are corn planted after soybeans, minimum tillage, weedy fields and adjacency to permanent vegetation.
While most Bt hybrids offer some suspression for black cutworm, high infestations of the insect can still cause yield loss. Iowa State University Extension entomologist Erin Hodgson recommends that all growers scout fields after plant emergence, especially this year. Black cutworm has troubled southern cornfields, and the moths migrate north.
Scouting recommendations include looking for plants with wilting, leaf discoloration and damage. Larvae can be found by examining the soil around a damaged plant. Scouting should continue until corn reaches the V5 stage when cutworms can no longer significantly damage a corn plant.
Black cutworm moths are attracted to early green vegetation where they lay eggs. The larvae are 1/8 in. long and grow to 2 in. They feed on new vegetation, including young corn plants. A mature worm is capable of cutting off a small plant and dragging it under a dirt clod for feeding.
The black cutworm may be confused with another cutworm found in the fields during the spring, the dingy cutworm. The difference between the two is that the black cutworm has grainy skin and the dingy cutworm has smooth skin.
When does it pay to treat a field? Hodgson suggests treatment when 2 to 3% of the plants are wilted and the larvae are less than ¾ in. in length. The smaller larvae are more destructive because they have a longer life span to eat away at the corn. If the cutworms are longer, a field should be treated if 5% of the plants are affected.
Growers can find an Excel spreadsheet for more detailed treatment calculations at www.extension.iastate.edu. Look for a link to the spreadsheet under the heading "Thresholds."
One of the many foliar insecticides on the market can be used to treat black cutworm, Hodgson says. Growers should make sure there's proper volume of pressure so the insecticide comes into contact with the cutworms. Be sure to check fields three days later to make sure the insecticde worked.

COMSOL Multiphysics Version 4.3b
A 2D cross-section is created from a 3D geometry of a heat exchanger using tools available in COMSOL Multiphysics. Incremental analysis of 2D cross-sections provides additional insight into the underlying physics in complex models.
Curvilinear Coordinates
A model of an anisotropic s-shaped material was generated using the automated curvilinear coordinates feature in COMSOL Multiphysics. Simulation results reveal highly directed heat conduction through the material with heat originating at the center disk. These types of materials are used as passive coolers for flat screens and smart phones.
Swept Mesh
A model of silicon ICs soldered onto a circuit board was meshed using the enhanced automatic sweeping feature available in COMSOL Multiphysics. Automated sweeping substantially reduces the amount of user interaction required to create a structured mesh.
Multibody Dynamics Module
Helicopter Swashplate Mechanism
A model of the swashplate mechanism to control orientation of helicopter rotor blades was developed using the Multibody Dynamics Module. Transient simulation with both rigid and flexible blade designs provides insight into useful performance metrics such as blade deformation and lift force.
Reciprocating Engine
Model of a three-cylinder reciprocating engine developed using the Multibody Dynamics Module. Simulation results show the von Mises stress in a connecting rod during crankshaft rotation.
Wave Optics Module
Directional Coupler
A model of a directional coupler formed from two interacting waveguides was developed using the Wave Optics Module. The left waveguide is excited and the simulation results reveal the optical coupling between the waveguides through visualization of the electric field.
A model of a self-focusing Gaussian beam was developed using the Wave Optics Module and is important in the design of high-power laser systems. The simulation demonstrates 3D nonlinear wave propagation and the distribution of the index of refraction within the lens.
Molecular Flow Module
Film Deposition
A model of gold film deposition via thermal evaporation was developed using the Molecular Flow Module. Transient simulation results confirm gold film thickness on both the sample and structures within the evaporator chamber.
Vacuum Systems
A model of the adsorption and desorption of water in a load-lock vacuum system was developed using the Molecular Flow Module. Simulation results confirm the pressure in the vacuum chamber and load lock segments.
Semiconductor Module
Semiconductor Analysis
Model of the DC characteristic of a MOS transistor was developed using the Semiconductor Module. Simulation results demonstrate transistor operation where an applied gate voltage turns the device on and then determines the drain saturation current.
Heat Transfer Module
Contact Switch
A model of the electrical current and heat flow in a contact switch was developed using the Heat Transfer Module along with AC/DC and Structural Mechanics Modules. In this multiphysics simulation, the thermal and electrical apparent resistances of the contacts are coupled to the mechanical contact pressure at the interface.
Power Supply Cooling
The thermal behavior of a computer power supply unit (PSU) is simulated. These electronic enclosures typically include cooling devices to prevent electronic components from being damaged by excessively high temperatures. An extracting fan and a perforated grille induce an air flow in the enclosure to abate internal heating.
Greenhouse Heating
The greenhouse effect represents a well-known case of multi-wavelength radiative heating. This and similar phenomena can be simulated with the multi-wavelength surface-to-surface heat radiation from the Heat Transfer Module. Short-wavelength infrared radiation entering the structure is re-emitted from the ground as long-wavelength infrared and is trapped within the greenhouse thereby heating the interior in combination with convection.
Heat Exchanger
A model of a shell and tube heat exchanger was developed using the Heat Transfer Module. Heat exchange occurs between flowing water in the inner pipes and the air-filled shell. Simulation results reveal flow velocity, temperature distribution, and pressure within the vessel.
Electrochemistry Module
Impedance Spectroscopy
A model of electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) was developed using the Electrochemistry Module. Simulation reveals the system impedance displayed in Bode and Nyquist plots to illustrate the transition between kinetic and transport control for a range of reaction rates.
Cyclic Voltammetry
A model of cyclic voltammetry was developed using the Electrochemistry Module. During simulation, the potential at the working electrode is swept up and down while the current is recorded. This waveform provides information about the reactivity and mass transport properties of an electrolyte.
AC/DC Module
Single-turn Coil
A model of a thin coil can be represented by an infinitely thin single-turn coil boundary using the AC/DC Module. The use of a coil boundary greatly simplifies simulation by eliminating the need to mesh the thickness of a thin coil thereby reducing the mesh count and memory usage.
RF Module
A model of a wire grating on a dielectric substrate was developed using the RF Module. Simulation of an electromagnetic plane wave at different angles of incidence (AOI) relative to the wire grating provides the transmission and reflection coefficients of refraction, diffraction, and specular reflection.

My name is Jackie Rabbit and I just want to say THANK YOU. I have been tattooing for 15 years and when I was diagnosed with Osteoarthritis of the spine I thought my career was over.
It's a girl thing to look all perfect; from head to toe. And when it comes to their body, nothing pleases them more than to have a flat belly and a curvy waist. It's a no wonder they love the waist trainers.

So usually I wouldn't think I could pull off a card in under 20 minutes when I had a Sprout to color and cut out but considering that the whole rest of the card consists only of a pre-cut and folded card base, a sheet of rub-ons and a single brad... well, let's just say that left me about 15 minutes for my main image. :)
I used Jeremy from the Roll Call set (love it) because I thought he looked the part for the sentiments I was using... isn't he just the coolest little tough guy? I pulled all my Copic colors from the rub-ons and then it was wham-bam done! Have I mentioned that guy cards seem to work great for quick and easy? ;)
Anywho... thanks for dropping by, I'll see you in 24!
