WCC Visits Wrigleyvilleby Michael Warren • June 9, 2008 Share:
Despite some rain early, a short delay before starting the game, and a quick 8-0 deficit to the Colorado Rockies, all turned out well for the annual Wabash Club of Chicago Cubs Game Event. Nearly 100 alumni, family, and friends gathered on Friday, May 30 for this annual event. Pre-game activities this year were held at Casey Moran's on Clark Street directly across from Wrigley Field. Everyone enjoyed some lunch and their favorite beverage while it rained outside.
The weather did finally cooperate and the game started just 20 minutes or so later than the scheduled time. After the first few innings most Cubs fans were wishing the game never started as they fell behind 8-0 after three innings. The skies had cleared and the Cubs mounted a rally taking advantage of a strong wind blowing out to prevail 10-9.
Thanks to Eric Schoettle '93 for devoting his time in organizing another great outing, even though he is a White Sox fan. Click here to see a photo album from the day.


text: John Bell Hood was a U.S. military officer who served as a Confederate general during the Civil War (1861-65). A graduate of West Point, Hood joined the Confederacy in 1861 and gained a reputation as a talented field commander during the Peninsula Campaign and the Second Battle of Bull Run in 1862. Hood served as a division commander at the Battles of Antietam and Fredericksburg, and lost a leg and the use of one of his arms after being severely wounded at the Battles of Gettysburg and Chickamauga in 1863. Promoted to full general in 1864, Hood served in independent command over the Army of Tennessee during the Atlanta Campaign. His aggressive tactics ultimately proved futile against William T. Sherman's larger Union force, and Hood later suffered a series of bitter defeats during the Franklin-Nashville Campaign in late 1864. After the Civil War Hood worked as a cotton broker and insurance agent in Louisiana. He died in 1879 at the age of 48.

First thing about Michael Parenti... it becomes obviously clear he is a fervent anti-globalist, anti-global corporation etc...Having said that, don't assume that Parenti is a lock step "liberal"
As a little aside to this, I'd point out that globalism, multi-nationial coporation etc. are not conservative either - they are part of the neo-conservative agenda.ÂÂ
The impotent and wrong policy of the West towards conflicts with the muslims were part of the appeasement of the islamic populations in many european countries and part of the general scheme to support islamists to defeat communism, and the West reaps the fruits now. I wonder whether the decision to support islamists, in the light of recent development in the West, makes any sense now.

As a manufacturer of both generator sets and transfer switches, the "Inside PQ" article in the March 2007 edition of EC&M titled "Ground Fault Current: Problems and Solutions" was of great interest and some concern to Cummins Power Generation. As a manufacturer of transfer switches with a simultaneously switched neutral pole (as shown in Fig. 3 on page 28 of the said article), we are interested in the "abnormal voltage" issue raised in the article.
With today's fast operating (approximating 6-cycle contact-to-contact transfer time) transfer switches and symmetrical mechanical switching of the load, transient overvoltages are of minimal magnitude, regardless of the load current balance, load voltage balance, or power factor.
In the event of the neutral pole switching in near perfect synchronism with the phase poles, abnormal voltage magnitudes are negligible. The duration of the switching action is short, relative to the period of the 60Hz waveform. The duration of any voltage unbalance is also inconsequential until complete separation and opening of the switch contacts. These voltage transients are not unusual on commercial power or during any routine switching action.
Transient voltages often randomly occur to commercial power equipment, which is protected by either inherent immunity or external devices. Sensitive electronic equipment is exposed to — and should be protected from — potentially damaging transient overvoltages. We do not see an "abnormal voltage" problem in the field with our customers' equipment having a simultaneously switch neutral pole. Today, in fact, all major transfer switch manufacturers offer a simultaneously switched neutral pole.
Another concern with the article involves safety. Figure 2 on page 28 shows that unbalanced current will return to the source on the equipment grounding conductor(s) (metallic boxes, conduits, etc.), which have multiple neutral-to-ground connections. This occurs under normal conditions and without a ground fault. The unbalanced current flow on this path is a safety concern that would be eliminated by removing the neutral-to-ground connection at the generator. The system depicted in Fig. 2 is called out in the caption as a separately derived system, but actually it is not. The generator neutral should not be grounded at the generator as shown.
The discussion of overlapping neutral contacts (shown as Solution 3) misses an important point. The GFP time delay is required in order for the GFP sensor to ignore the parallel path on the neutral during overlapping. The duration of the overlap may vary with the size of the transfer switch, with larger ampere switches having longer overlap duration.
The GFP time delay must be coordinated with and set for a longer duration than the duration of the overlapping contact. Because overlapping contacts require a GFP time delay, zone selective interlocking that can operate instantaneously would be preclusive. Zone selective interlocking may be desirable for the increased protection for ground faults and for coordination purposes.
Our last concern is in regard to the recommendation to retrofit an existing transfer switch with overlapping neutral contacts. This recommendation should be approached very carefully; as in general, field modification to UL-listed equipment may affect the listing. To quote from the UL Web site, "In addition, minor modifications performed in the field are permissible on equipment or products provided that the modifications are fully in accordance with the UL procedure. Such modifications shall be made by the manufacturer authorized in the UL procedure that covers the equipment or product."
— Beth Kerr, Power Electronics, Cummins Power Generation, Minneapolis
Author's Response: Thank you for your detailed letter regarding our March 2007 article on ground-fault current. Let me address your comments, as you have listed them.
My discussion of abnormal voltage on switched neutral transfer switches during transfer is based on coverage of this specific item in IEEE 446 (The Orange Book). The standard states "unbalanced loads may cause abnormal voltages for as long as 10 to 15 milliseconds when the neutral conductor is momentarily opened during transfer of the load."
The article (and the standard) warns of the possibility of this problem. You are correct in that the fast transfer times of today's transfer switches have substantially reduced the magnitude of this problem. Nevertheless, it could remain a potential problem in installations with older transfer equipment.
Regarding the article's Fig. 2, you are correct in that the neutral of the generator should not be grounded. The point of showing it this way is to point out how multiple neutral-ground connections can cause unbalanced neutrals from unbalanced loads to flow through ground-fault protection, causing nuisance tripping. You are also correct in that the generator, as shown here, is not a separately derived system because the generator neutral is solidly interconnected to the service equipment neutral.
Regarding the article's citing of overlapping neutrals as Solution 3, your comment regarding coordination of ground-fault protection with the duration of overlap is correct. Also, your comments on the factors affecting this coordination are right on. The article touched upon this, but did not provide enough detailed information on those various factors.
Finally, your comment on the article's point of adding overlapping neutrals as a field modification to existing transfer equipment is correct in that such modification must be made according to UL procedure. The point of this discussion is to inform the reader of the possibility of this modification as an option, if space allows in the existing equipment. Nevertheless, the article should have listed the caveat of the possible negative effect of the modification on the UL listing.

Chano y Dizzy! Honors the Legacy of Chano Pozo and Dizzy Gillespie
For more than three decades as both a leader and a sideman, conguero Poncho Sanchez has stirred up a fiery stew of straightahead jazz, gritty soul music, and infectious melodies and rhythms from a variety of Latin American and South American sources. His influences are numerous, but among the more prominent figures that inform his music are two of the primary architects of Latin jazz – conga drummer and composer Chano Pozo and trumpeter Dizzy Gillespie. Sanchez pays tribute to these two titans on his new album, Chano y Dizzy!, his 25th recording as a bandleader on Concord Picante, set for release on September 27, 2011. For the first time, Sanchez and Francisco Torres, long time band member (trombone/vocals), join forces to produce the new album.
Joining Sanchez on the 11-song set is multi-GRAMMY winning trumpeter Terence Blanchard. It makes sense that, for this project, Sanchez recruited fellow label mate Blanchard, a New Orleans native who literally grew up amid the Cuban and Latin jazz scene and a longtime fan of the music's multicultural underpinnings. Blanchard has established himself as one of the most innovative and influential jazz musicians and film score masters of his generation. As a film composer, Blanchard has more than 50 feature film scores to his credit. Currently at work on the score for George Lucas's long-awaited upcoming movie, "Red Tails," the Golden Globe nominee and four-time Grammy winner's music was recently featured on Broadway in Chris Rock's Tony-nominated play, "The Mother****** With Hat." Blanchard is currently at work on the music for the Broadway remake of A Streetcar Named Desire and has also been commissioned by the Opera St. Louis for a project that will premiere in 2012. His latest CD, Choices, was released by Concord Jazz in 2009 to widespread critical acclaim.
"These two musicians were the pioneers of what is now known as Latin jazz," says Sanchez. "Chano Pozo was a genius. He's considered the godfather of conga drummers, and he's someone whom I respect a great deal. And of course, Dizzy Gillespie was an iconic artist in American jazz. I had the honor and pleasure of working with him on several occasions. These guys were the first musicians to bring elements of Latin music to American jazz – which has resulted in some of the greatest music of the last 50 or 60 years. I felt that it was time to pay tribute to them and their accomplishments."
While the album includes songs originally written and performed by the two legends, it also showcases compositions crafted by other writers that capture the flavor of traditional Latin jazz. Sanchez's touring band assists with the songwriting and arranging. The studio ranks include: pianist David Torres, saxophonist Rob Hardt, trumpeter Ron Blake, trombonist/vocalist Francisco Torres, bassist Tony Banda, timbalist George Ortiz, and percussionist Joey De Leon, Jr.
"The great thing about this band is that they take a very traditional approach to Latin music,' says Blanchard. "They pay a lot of attention to the detail of the specific rhythms they're playing, and they understand the historical significance of keeping that heritage alive."
Although born in Laredo, Texas, in 1951 to a large Mexican-American family, Sanchez grew up in a suburb of L.A., where he was raised on an unusual cross section of sounds that included straightahead jazz, Latin jazz and American soul. By his teen years, his musical consciousness had been solidified by the likes of John Coltrane, Miles Davis, Cal Tjader, Mongo Santamaria, Wilson Pickett and James Brown. Along the way, he taught himself to play guitar, flute, drums and timbales, but eventually settled on the congas.
At 24, after working his way around the local club scene for several years, he landed a permanent spot in Cal Tjader's band in 1975. "I learned a great deal from Cal," says Sanchez, "but it wasn't as though he sat me down and taught me lessons like a schoolteacher. Mostly it was just a matter of being around such a great guy. It was the way he conducted himself, the way he talked to people, the way he presented himself onstage. He was very elegant, very dignified, and when he played, he played beautifully. The touch that he had on the vibes – nobody has that sound. To me, he was – and is, and always will be – the world's greatest vibe player."
Sanchez remained with Tjader until the bandleader's death in 1982. That same year, he signed with Concord for the release of Sonando, an album that marked the beginning of a musical partnership that has spanned more than 25 years and has yielded more than two dozen recordings. Chano y Dizzy! is the latest installment in that ongoing partnership.
Sanchez, Blanchard and company set the tone early with an opening medley of lively Pozo tunes: "Tin Tin Deo," "Manteca" and "Guachi Guaro." Blanchard delivers down some sultry trumpet lines over Sanchez's percussion and vocals, while the rest of the band lays down a solid and spicy rhythmic bed throughout.
The followup track is a simmering rendition of Dizzy's "Con Alma," with numerous tempo changes that give Blanchard room to flex his muscles in varying rhythmic contexts within a single song.
Further in, "Siboney" is an old Cuban song by Ernesto Lecuona that's consistent enough with the overall vibe of the record to make the cut. "Ron Bake called me and said, 'Poncho, I've always liked this tune, but Chano didn't write it and neither did Dizzy.' I said, 'It's alright. It fits. It'll be fine.' I've always liked the tune myself, so I was glad that we finally got a chance to record it. I think it complements the artists and the period we're paying tribute to."
The light-hearted "Groovin' High" is a Gillespie composition originally conceived as a swing tune, but Sanchez and company rearranged it here to fit more of a mambo vibe. The funky "Harris's Walk," another song penned by Blake, was written in the style of Eddie Harris, "but I liked it so much at rehearsal that I said, 'We gotta put this on the record,'" says Sanchez.
"Jack's Dilemma," written by Francisco Torres, came together on the fly with a stripped down rhythm section consisting of Sanchez on conga and Joey De Leon on trap drums. "There are no timbales, no bongos," says Sanchez. "The engineers in the studio sort of slapped together a drum set. Joey tuned them the way he wanted, and man, ten minutes later we were recording. In the end, I think it sounded great."
The album ends just as it starts, with a staccato and highly rhythmic Pozo tune called "Ariñañara." Recorded by several artists through the years, the song is what Sanchez calls "straight-up hardcore salsa music." It serves close to a recording that celebrates some of the most innovative music to emerge from the 20th century.
"To me, Latin jazz is the world's greatest music," says Sanchez. "It has the melodic and harmonic sophistication of jazz and American standards, and the flavor and energy of Latin American music. What I'm most proud of is that this music – while it may sound exotic at times – is from America. It was born in New York City, when Chano Pozo met Dizzy Gillespie for the first time in the mid-1940s. They created something that didn't exist before in this country. I'm very proud to take this music all over the world all the time."

Jerrod Niemann, 'Shinin' on Me' – Song Review
The lead single from Jerrod Niemann's second studio album on Arista Nashville travels a road fans of 'Judge Jerrod and the Hung Jury' are familiar with. 'Shinin' on Me' buries hurt with a few smiles and a positive attitude.
The fact that the song could fit well alongside many of the more insipid album cuts on his major label debut is worrisome. There is little new to be excited about with 'Shinin' on Me.' It sounds like one chosen because it played well around a campfire with a few close buddies and a case of beer.
"Life is taking turns / Falling flat on your chin / Trying to fly with the birds / Love sure is blind / 'Cause it don't see / It ain't spent one night / Feelin' sorry for me," Niemann sings during the first verse. Fans will argue for this trademark looseness, but others won't be as patient.
"Today the sun is shinin' on me / Sittin' with my feet in the breeze / Ain't sweatin' the little things / And who knows what tomorrow is gonna bring / Today the sun is shinin' me," he adds during the chorus.
Niemann has yet to replicate the vocal performance he turned in on 'Lover, Lover,' which is somewhat frustrating. In aiming for care-free, he seems to hinge on lazy. "There ain't too many times / I felt like a king / But sittin' here with you dear / Makes me wanna sing."
Finding that middle-ground is difficult. Perhaps only Billy Currington has gotten it right in recent years, but if Niemann can ride that groove on future songs from this album, he could quickly double the 'Good Directions' hitmaker's successes.

SAT Test Sites and Dates
10 Points to Remember About SAT Test Sites and Dates
Time is a quantity that needs to be respected and adhered to when registering for competitive exams and preparing for them. For any discerning applicant time is of high value, be it for selecting test sites and dates or choosing preparatory courses. If you're not on time then you're surely out of it. It is more than crucial for an applicant to understand the importance to perform these tasks well before time. What follows are ten pointers that applicants need to keep in mind while choosing their test centers and dates, and doing so well within time is probably the most important one out of these.
- SAT Program Guide - To find test locations closest to your home, you could use the SAT Program Guide available at your high school and look under the section called 'Test Centers and Codes'. There would be a list of test centers here and you could pick out the ones suited to you and put in their codes while filling out your registration form.
- College Board Website - If you are registering online and not through the SAT Program Guide, then the College Board website would be an accurate way to find test centers and dates. The 'Code Search' section of the website would guide you to the codes of various schools and test sites which you can choose after you have entered your country (in the case of international applicants) and region (local applicants).
- Phone Call– Applicants can also know about the test sites on the phone by calling the College Board customer services between 8:30 AM to 8:00 PM EST at (866) 756-7346 for local applicants and at (212) 713-7789 for international applicants.
- Test Dates– Applicants should at all time be aware of registration deadlines and complete the registration process well before time to secure favorable test centers and dates. Four dates for 2012 are out and these are on January 28, March 10, May 5 and June 4 with their registration deadlines falling a month in advance.
- Time is Essential– Time needs to be kept in mind while selecting test centers and dates and so applicants should choose early because it is probable they might not get the center closer to their home if it has already filled up and they have delayed with the registration.
- Center Too Far Away– In case an applicant has been given a center that is more than 100 miles away and finds it difficult to get there, he can request for a center closer to his preferred location.
- Test Accommodation– Students suffering from disabilities and need to arrive early or stay near the test sites have the option of requesting for test accommodation. There are also special requests that are taken care of like Braille format of the test, large print or wheel chair. Applicants requiring this need to visit the SSD (Services for Students with Disabilities) page and inform the SSD staff about their requirements.
- Locate the Center- Take a drive to the test center a day before the exam so that you know the route well and look for alternative routes as well, just in case there is traffic on the main route on the exam day.
- Carry a Snack or Juice– Although some test centers may have food kiosks/canteens, but its wise not to depend on those if you can afford a snack from home. You will have three breaks in between the test and you're bound to get grubby, so pack a snack for yourself.
- Clothing – Applicants should dress in layers or carry a
jacket with in case the test center is too cold. Alternatively they can
wear a short sleeved t-shirt in case it is too warm inside the test site.

Tokyo Museum Teaches Everything About Toilets [VIDEO & PICTURES]
I can't say I've ever had a reason to want to know everything about toilets, but someone must have. For that someone, a new exhibit just opened at the Tokyo Museum Of Science.
The exhibit is called "Toilet!? Human Waste & Earth's Future" and it really has everything you'd ever want to know about toilets. From history, to future plans, to even hands-on (ew!) models of things that go in the toilet. There's even a ride where kids can wear feces shaped hats and ride a slide down a giant toilet. Oh, and of course you won't want to miss your chance to get your picture taken with the interesting mascot.
Watch the video and see the pictures below to get a better feel (ew, again!) for what the museum is like.

Learning about Immigrant Students' Names
Avoid the temptation to Americanize a student's name or create a nickname. Immigrant students have already suffered the trauma of leaving behind their extended family members, friends, teachers, and schools. Don't further traumatize your students by calling them by an American name. If the child comes to school with an Americanized name, there is not much you can do, but the school should never Americanize a student's name. It is important to learn how names are used in your students' culture. Here are a few examples:
1. Korean names are written with the family name (Kang) first and then the given name (Chung Hee) which usually has two parts. Two-part names should not be shortened. Also, Kang Chung Hee's mother does not take her husband's name, but she retains her own family name.
2. In general, children from Spanish-speaking families have a given name followed by two surnames. The first surname is the father's family name, and the second surname is the mother's family name. Schools should not drop either of these surnames. If a child registers as Maria Hernandez Lopez, both the Hernandez and Lopez and should be retained. Spanish-speaking families who have lived in the United States awhile will often either hyphenate the double surname or use the father's family name.
3.Because Hindu names are often very long, family members and friends may shorten a child's name. In school, however, teachers use the formal names. Hindu adults and children do not call anyone who is older by their name. A six-year-old girl will call her seven-year-old brother "Bhaiya" or "Older Brother" and he calls her by her first name.
4. Chinese names are usually made up of three characters. The first character is the family name, and the other two characters are the given name. Families generally give their children two names. One name is a nickname to be used by friends and family and the other is an official name used for the birth certificate and the school. Students are usually called by their full name in school, but friends and close relatives may use just the given name. One of the readers of this blog wrote to tell me that sometimes a student might have just one character for their given name. However, if the student does have two characters for their given name, both of them are used. You wouldn't use just one part of a two-part given name.
5. In Russia, children have three parts to their names: a given name, a patronymic, and the father's surname. A patronymic is a type of middle name based on the father's first name. If a student named Marina Viktorevna Rakhmaninova enrolls in your school, you can tell that her father's name is Victor. The "a" at the end of all three names shows that she is female. In American schools, Russian students will often use their given and family names following American custom.
4 comments:
As a teacher of Chinese students, I would have to disagree with your generalization. You are correct in that the first character is the family surname; however, sometimes the student might have just one character for their given name (for example ZHANG Han 张涵). However, if the student does have two characters for their given name, both of them are the given name (for example WANG YiBin 王逸斌). His first name is Yibin; using just one of the characters would be like calling someone named Frank "Fra"

I wrote this description of Chinese naming traditions with the help of a Chinese friend who works at the United Nations. I will add your information to the article so that it is more complete. Thank you for the input.

The problem I have encountered over the years is when a student's name from their native country can easily conjure up inappropriate references in the English language. I had a student named "Phat Dang". When he entered kindergarten, the teacher and I decided that his first name, although pronounced as 'fat' in English, would be pronounced 'Phot' in our school. He is now in 6th grade and still known as 'Phot'. Were we insensitive to his culture? I'd like to know what some other teachers have done in similar situations..

Another pattern I've encountered in names of Arabic speakers is "al" followed by the father's name. This happens even in predominantly Muslim countries like Malaysia where Arabic has a strong influence on the culture.

From Our Editors
One tax season, working mom Melissa Lanz tallied up the year's receipts for takeout and convenience food and was stunned by the total. She recalls, "Our busy, unorganized lifestyle had driven us to spend the cost of a new car on takeout." On top of that, she felt sluggish and unhealthy. A little online searching revealed that common wisdom held that one must choose between fast or healthy. Unconvinced, the one-time Internet marketing executive left her job and began tinkering with recipes. As she worked, three main priorities became clear: healthy and seasonal ingredients, simple recipes, and kid-friendly meals.
The set-up is simple: every Friday, the expert team posts 20-ingredient grocery lists and recipes for five meals centered around health. Recipes include gluten-free, vegetarian, and paleo varieties for those with special diets. There is also a For One option for those singles who want to eat well at home.
The grocery lists eschew preservatives, processed foods, and frozen ingredients in favor of seasonal items that are good for you and the environment. Every recipe piggybacks off the others, so every item on the list creates balanced meals without waste. The list also includes estimated prices, which helps balance budgets or train for future appearances on The Price Is Right. The Fresh 20's diverse meals include recipes such as flank steak tacos, turkey enchiladas, and butternut-apple bisque. Melissa also authored The Fresh 20 Cookbook, incorporating these same principles into the crafting of over 125 additional recipes. At the end of 2011, only two years after Melissa started The Fresh 20, InStyle magazine toasted the entrepreneur for creating one of the web's "genius sites that make your day easier and better." Since then she has also been featured in the New York Times, USA Weekend, Shape, Parents, and Prevention Magazine.

Chandler, Ariz. • Nothing frightens autojournalists more than the nondescript. Awful is better than mediocre. We can work with terrible or excellent in equal measure and neither the sublime nor the ridiculous scare us. Just don't give us bland.
Hell, then, is a subcompact wagon with a 110-horsepower engine and a tan-on-beige paint job. There is no "it," no attention-grabbing superlative that is both the car's raison d'être and our easily discerned headline.
Chevrolet's new Camaro ZL1 has exactly the opposite problem — a vast plethora of attention grabbers, each worthy of front-page coverage. Should I lead off with its purported 580 horsepower, an above-the-fold headline no matter how little you care about performance cars? Should I tease with its seven-minute 41.27-second time around the world-famous Nürburgring, the circuit in Germany that is now the benchmark for fast cars? Or do I lead with the more pedestrian but equally exciting fact that a Canadian ZL1 will cost only $58,000, a seeming pittance of a markup from the $37,735 SS version and — perhaps even more important to Canadians used to scanning for U.S. bargains — barely seven per cent above the US$54,095 sticker price south of the border?
What's surprising, however, is despite those noteworthy numbers, the most surprising aspect of the new Camaro is its sophistication. Despite its relatively lowly Camaro lineage, miserly price tag and cartoonish movie roles, the ZL1 is a bona fide supercar.
Yes, I am as surprised as you are. Indeed, upon perusing the ZL1's spec sheet (particularly its 1,900-kilogram curb weight), I expected a car that was simply an SS with a bit more power — fun to spin the tires but not the sort of thing you'd want to spend any time flinging around a race track.
Instead, the ZL1 turns out to be a veritable track weapon. Besides the obvious — and 580 hp certainly qualifies as obvious — the real reason for the ZL1's exemplary performance is the latest Gen III Magnetic Ride suspension system and its twin of computerized road-hugging malfeasance, the all-new Performance Traction Management (PTM) traction control system. As incredible as it may seem, the two combine to render the rather portly Camaro into a rapier-like road rocket.
The ZL1's Gen III system, like earlier Magnetic Ride systems, uses a unique magneto-rheological fluid that alters its viscosity in response to an electrical signal. Essentially, if you feed the fluid some electricity, it gets thicker — as in water to molasses — in the blink of an eye. This allows Chevy's engineers to almost instantly alter the suspension performance by computer. One second the ZL1 — thanks to comparatively soft springs and wimpy stabilizer bars — is a model of decorum. In the next, the suspension is Formula One rigid, all because an ECU sent the dampers a few milliamps of current. The new two-coil, two-wire dampers react so quickly, says Alex MacDonald, Chevrolet's chassis control development engineer, that it's possible to tailor the car's tendency to under- or oversteer just by sending current to the dampers. MacDonald claims the system is so powerful that, in its design phase, the ZL1 could be transformed from an understeering pig to an oversteering hooligan with just a few keystrokes from a laptop.
Throw in what is possibly the automotive world's most sophisticated traction control system — the aforementioned PTM — and you have one of the most easily controlled high-performance cars on the planet. PTM offers five positions of digital intervention, all the way from a "wet" setting for playing silly bugger in the rain to the full-zoot Track mode that race driver Aaron Link used to set that scalding Nürburgring time (yes, even the experts are faster with an electronic traction nanny, as long as it is suitably calibrated).
MacDonald also says the PTM differs from other traction control systems by being predictive; it can actually reduce power before the wheels lose traction rather than after as is more common for electronic stability control systems. The result, says MacDonald, is that the ZL1 suffers none of the herky-jerky slide and catch that lesser systems suffer as they try to regain traction after the fact.
The system works brilliantly. A little intrusive in its normal No. 2 position (especially in automatic-equipped models, which programs in a little more safety), there's a noticeable delay on exiting corners at full throttle. Move up to position four, however, and response feels as immediate as a race car. The back end drifts on command and, yet, no matter how silly you get, the PTM seems to rein you in before you get into oh-my-Lord-where-did-that-guardrail-come-from trouble.
Indeed, the ZL1 has few faults, the Magnetic Ride keeping the car flat even under the high-lateral g-force turns at the end of Bob Bondurant's Firebird Raceway. The sticky (and almost treadless) 20-inch Goodyear Supercar F1s offered plenty of traction and the PTM system kept understeer in check. Even roiling through the track's high-speed ess turns failed to upset the plot, the big Camaro feeling more like a lithe Lotus when flip-flopping between apexes. Indeed, only in the slowest of first-gear switchbacks does the car's 1,900 kg overwhelm the Goodyears and push the front end a little wide. The ZL1 is formidable.
How formidable? That 7:41.27 Nürburgring test time I mentioned earlier sees the ZL1 ahead of Porsche's mighty 911 GT3 piloted by none other than 'Ring legend Walter Röhrl, as well as the insane (read very expensive) Pagani Zonda S — and less than a second behind Lamborghini's mighty Gallardo LP570-4 Superleggera. This might be a good time to remind everyone that, yes, I really am talking about a Camaro that costs $58,000.
Of course, part of the reason for the ZL1's incredible speed is its monster supercharged 6.2-litre V8. Based on the same basic block and Eaton blower as in the Corvette ZR1 and Cadillac CTS-V, the Camaro's 580 horses neatly splits the difference between the two, being 58 fewer than the over-the-top Vette but 24 more than the M5-trouncing rapid Caddy. In truth, it is the 556 pound-feet of torque that matter more. Indeed, so massive is the low-end grunt pumped out by the supercharger that I opted for the six-speed automatic version when romping around the race track. No matter what losses the slushbox's torque convertor might engender, the big 6.2L had more than enough to cover it. In fact, according to GM, the automatic is actually quicker, romping to 96 kilometres an hour in just 3.9 seconds, a tenth quicker than the manual. The automatic is also faster at the top end, its 297 km/h speed seven km/h more than the six-speed manual.
The engine barks like the real McCoy as well. The exhaust system has a cut-out to let all those horses breathe — as is common these days. But even more mesmerizing is the throttle limiter, which kicks in as you exceed top revs. That's when the ignition cut-out's staccato beat makes the ZL1 sound like a Le Mans race car at the end of the Mulsanne Straight.
It all adds up to one of the biggest surprise in recent years — a mid-priced Canadian-built sports car that is as trackworthy as the best from Europe or Japan. Yes, the interior still looks like it fell out of a Chevette and quite why Chevrolet makes a car that can generate 1.0 g of lateral cornering force (within spitting distance of the Corvette ZR1, by the way) and then stints on the seats' side bolstering is beyond my ken. Nonetheless, this may be the best track day bandit you can buy for $58,000.
And, just to make that point all the more poignant, in deeming its new car "track capable," Chevrolet is extending the Camaro's warranty to track day bandits. Yes, even if something breaks — halfshafts, engine, transmission, etc. — while you beating the Holy-mother-of-you-know-what out of your ZL1 on a track, Chevrolet will cover it under the normal warranty. The only way you can void it is to make non-approved modifications (and, be forewarned, GM will find out). For those of us of middle-class means looking for a supercar we can afford to abuse, this is as good as it gets.

MacBook Air (HDD model): an in-depth review
Design Factors: the Missing Features
The real controversies surrounding the Air are related to what it leaves out in terms of features outside of its strengths in mobility and performance. The primary worries relate to its design decisions concerning its optical drive, WWAN support for 3G mobile networks, FireWire, and Ethernet.
Built-in Optical Drive versus network Remote Disc or optional SuperDrive
It was widely assumed before the Air's announcement that Apple would deliver a thin new laptop in part by removing the optical drive. Most makers of ultra mobile laptops already do this apart from Sony, which specializes in getting a tiny optical mechanism inside its extremely small laptops. Optical drives not only take up a lot of space, but also help to consume battery power. Apart from installing software and serving as a floppy replacement, the main use for an optical drive is to play DVDs or CDs.
It's in Apple's interest to migrate users to iTunes media, so it has positioned the Air's custom designed SuperDrive as an optional accessory users might be able to live without. In order to make an optical-free system even more viable, Apple includes Remote Disk DVD and CD sharing software that allows Air users to set up a Mac or Windows PC on the same network as an optical disc server. Remote Disc was detailed in the article MacBook Air spawns new software solutions for missing hardware.
The software is easy to install and simple to use, but we ran into several problems with it. As Apple warned, it does not work with CSS encrypted DVDs. When I tried to play a DVD remotely, it mounted and launched DVD Player, began playing the initial FBI warnings, then stopped with an error that "disc copy protection could not be verified. The disc can not be played." (below) This seems to be related to the licensing restrictions on DVDs, and is not a technical problem Apple can solve. In order to play DVDs on the Air, you'll have to rip the CSS off them yourself using Handbrake, and then copy them over the network. DVD Player on the Air happily played my ripped DVD directly from a personal file share on another computer.
Audio CDs also have issues, for reasons that are less obvious. When sharing a CD over standard file sharing, a client Mac can read the raw file and play it because there is no CSS encryption on standard audio CDs. By default, a Mac reading an audio CD over the network will open iTunes and copy the song over directly, essentially ripping the CD over the network. Both existing Macs and the Air can do this, although it requires logging into the remote Mac with a user account.
However, Remote Disc seems to have a problem with reading audio CDs. Apple warns that "Some CDs or DVDs may be unable to install over a network using DVD or CD Sharing if they contain some forms of copy protection" but also states "MacBook Air does not support playing DVD movies or burned or ripped CD media." That simply does not make sense. Burned CD media is not different than pressed commercial CDs, and "ripped CD media" is a puzzle of its own. What is that even supposed to mean, a CD that has been ripped, or that can be ripped? Perhaps Apple was trying to say "does not support ripping or burning using Remote Disc."
If you want to rip a CD on the Air without buying a SuperDrive, you can do it by simply connecting to the CD via the computer name under Shared in the Leopard Finder. You're currently out of luck trying to do that with Remote Disc. Whether this is an artificial, non-sensical limitation Apple purposely erected or just a bug in Remote Disc isn't yet clear. We also experienced intermittent problems with sharing standard DVD-ROM and CD-ROM media, too. All of them presented the same error: "the original item could not be found."
The DVD and CD Sharing server software that gets installed on the remote machine has some issues as well. On one Leopard Mac, the software appeared to work but wouldn't ever pop up the permission dialog when the Air asked to use the drive. On another Leopard machine and a Mac running Tiger, there was no problem with asking permission. Remote Disk is a great idea and has a clever and simple interface, but it does not yet work flawlessly, or even satisfactorily. Expect an update to improve things in the next few weeks.
The optional SuperDrive leaves less to chance, and has no issues with audio CDs or DVD movies. Because it requires more power than the USB specification supplies, the Air was specially designed to deliver additional power over its USB port. Using a hub allows you to power the SuperDrive while still using other USB devices. Using the SuperDrive will also tax the Air's battery however, so rather than using it to watch inflight movies, it makes more sense to rip them to local files or to use media downloads instead of DVDs.
WWAN radio or expansion bay versus option to use a USB Dongle
Many expected Apple to include a 3G radio for use with mobile data networks. Other laptops in the Air's class often feature built in support for EVDO or HSDPA networks, which require a data plan with a mobile service provider. However, a look inside the Air's case reveals there's no room for a WWAN radio and antenna and no space for an Express Card slot. There also appear to be no ExpressCard slot WWAN modules that support the Mac.
Users who want to access a WWAN service will need to use a USB adapter like every other MacBook user. The remaining complication is that some WWAN USB units won't fit into the tight space of the Air's port bay, requiring a USB extension cord. It might be tricky to find such a short USB extension. A more ideal solution would be to tether the Air to a mobile phone that supports data uplink, either using a USB cable or wirelessly. The iPhone, as all other phones from AT&T, doesn't support tethered data sharing from mobile phones to computers, unfortunately.
Another option for mobile users who want ubiquitous network access is one of the new portable WiFi wireless LAN routers that accept CardBus EVDO cards. This allows multiple WiFi devices, including the Air and iPhone, to access EVDO broadband mobile service.
On page 4 of 5: FireWire versus USB; Ethernet jack versus optional USB Ethernet Dongle; Design Factors: Premium Features; Full sized backlit keyboard versus toy buttons; and Full sized display and resolution versus mini screen.

Along with its needed effects, a medicine may cause some unwanted effects. Although not all of these side effects may occur, if they do occur they may need medical attention.
Check with your doctor immediately if any of the following side effects occur:
More common
Less common
Incidence not known
Some side effects may occur that usually do not need medical attention. These side effects may go away during treatment as your body adjusts to the medicine. Also, your health care professional may be able to tell you about ways to prevent or reduce some of these side effects. Check with your health care professional if any of the following side effects continue or are bothersome or if you have any questions about them:
More common
Other side effects not listed may also occur in some patients. If you notice any other effects, check with your healthcare professional.
Call your doctor for medical advice about side effects. You may report side effects to the FDA at 1-800-FDA-1088.
It is very important that your doctor check the progress of you or your child at regular visits to make sure that this medicine is working properly. Blood and urine tests may be needed to check for unwanted effects.
Using this medicine while you are pregnant can harm your unborn baby. Use an effective form of birth control to keep from getting pregnant, and keep using it for at least 12 weeks after you stop taking sirolimus. If you think you have become pregnant while using the medicine, tell your doctor right away.
While you are taking sirolimus, it is important to maintain good dental hygiene and see a dentist regularly for teeth cleaning.
Raw oysters or other shellfish may contain bacteria that can cause serious illness and possibly death. This is more likely to be a problem if these foods are eaten by patients with certain medical conditions. Even eating oysters from "clean" water or good restaurants does not guarantee that the oysters do not contain the bacteria. Eating raw shellfish is not a problem for most healthy people; however, patients with the following conditions may be at greater risk: cancer, immune disorders, organ transplantation, long-term corticosteroid use (as for asthma, arthritis, or organ transplantation), liver disease (including viral hepatitis), excess alcohol intake (2 to 3 drinks or more per day), diabetes, stomach problems (including stomach surgery and low stomach acid), and hemochromatosis (an iron disorder). Do not eat raw oysters or other shellfish while you are taking sirolimus. Be sure oysters and shellfish are fully cooked.
While you are being treated with sirolimus, and after you stop treatment with it, it is important to see your doctor about the immunizations (vaccinations) you should receive. Do not get any immunizations without your doctor's approval. Sirolimus may lower your body's resistance and there is a chance you might get the infection the immunization is meant to prevent. In addition, other persons living in your household should not take oral polio vaccine since there is a chance they could pass the polio virus on to you. Also, avoid other persons who have taken the oral polio vaccine. Do not get close to them, and do not stay in the same room with them for very long. If you cannot take these precautions, you should consider wearing a protective face mask that covers the nose and mouth.
Treatment with sirolimus may increase the chance of getting other infections. If you can, avoid people with colds or other infections. If you think you or your child are getting a cold or other infection, check with your doctor.
This medicine may also increase your risk of bleeding and cause delay in wound healing. Stay away from rough sports or other situations where you could be bruised, cut, or injured. Brush and floss your teeth gently. Be careful when using sharp objects, including razors and fingernail clippers. Check with your doctor immediately if you or your child notice any unusual bleeding or bruising; black, tarry stools; blood in the urine or stools; or pinpoint red spots on your skin.
Sirolimus may cause serious types of allergic reactions, especially when used with certain medicines. Tell your doctor right away if you or your child have a rash; itching; large, hive-like swelling on the face, eyelids, lips, tongue, throat, hands, legs, feet, or sex organs; red, swollen skin; trouble with breathing; or chest tightness while you are using this medicine.
Sirolimus may cause you to have a greater risk for getting cancer, especially skin cancer or cancer of the lymph glands (lymphoma). When you or your child begin taking this medicine:
This medicine may increase your cholesterol and fats in the blood. If this condition occurs, your doctor may give you or your child some medicines that can lower the amount of cholesterol and fats in the blood.
This medicine may increase your risk of developing a rare and serious virus infection called BK virus-associated nephropathy (BKVAN). The BK virus may affect how your kidneys work and cause a transplanted kidney to fail. Check with your doctor right away if you or your child are having more than one of these symptoms: bloody urine; a decreased frequency or amount of urine; increased thirst; loss of appetite; lower back or side pain; nausea; swelling of the face, fingers, or lower legs; trouble with breathing; unusual tiredness or weakness; vomiting; or weight gain.
This medicine may increase your risk of developing a serious and rare brain infection called progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy (PML). Check with your doctor right away if you or your child are having more than one of these symptoms: vision changes, loss of coordination, clumsiness, confusion, memory loss, difficulty speaking or understanding what others say, and weakness in the legs.
Check with your doctor right away if you notice a new mole; a change in size, shape or color of an existing mole; or a mole that leaks fluid or bleeds.
Do not take other medicines unless they have been discussed with your doctor. This includes prescription or nonprescription (over-the-counter [OTC]) medicines and herbal or vitamin supplements.
Take this medicine only as directed by your doctor. Do not take more of it, do not take it more often, and do not take it for a longer time than your doctor ordered. The exact amount of medicine you need has been carefully worked out. Using too much will increase the risk of side effects, while using too little may lead to rejection of your transplanted kidney.
This medicine usually comes with patient information or directions. Read them carefully and make sure you understand them before taking this medicine. If you have any questions, ask your doctor.
To help you remember to take your medicine, try to get into the habit of taking it at the same time each day. This will help sirolimus work better by keeping a constant amount in the blood.
You may take this medicine with or without food. However, you should take it the same way (with or without food) each time.
Grapefruits and grapefruit juice may increase the effects of sirolimus by increasing the amount of this medicine in your body. You should not eat grapefruit or drink grapefruit juice while you are taking this medicine.
Do not stop taking this medicine without checking first with your doctor. You may have to take this medicine for the rest of your life to prevent your body from rejecting the transplant.
Sirolimus is usually used along with a corticosteroid (cortisone-like medicine) and cyclosporine (immunosuppressive agent). Sirolimus should be taken 4 hours after cyclosporine modified oral solution (Neoral®) or cyclosporine modified capsules (Neoral®). If you have any questions about this, ask your doctor.
If you have been taking sirolimus together with cyclosporine for 2 to 4 months after your transplant, your doctor may want you to stop using cyclosporine and increase the dose of sirolimus. However, some patients (e.g., black patients or those with transplant rejection in the past) may need to continue using cyclosporine for up to one year after the transplant. Your doctor will tell you if you need to keep taking cyclosporine.
Sirolimus tablets should not be crushed, chewed, or split. If you are unable to take the tablet form, your doctor will give you an oral liquid and be given instructions on how to take it.
To use the oral liquid:
If this medicine gets into your skin, wash it with soap and water right away. If it gets in your eyes, rinse them with water.
The dose of this medicine will be different for different patients. Follow your doctor's orders or the directions on the label. The following information includes only the average doses of this medicine. If your dose is different, do not change it unless your doctor tells you to do so.
The amount of medicine that you take depends on the strength of the medicine. Also, the number of doses you take each day, the time allowed between doses, and the length of time you take the medicine depend on the medical problem for which you are using the medicine.
Keep out of the reach of children.
Do not keep outdated medicine or medicine no longer needed.
Ask your healthcare professional how you should dispose of any medicine you do not use.
Store the oral tablets at room temperature in a closed container, away from heat, moisture, and direct light.
Store the oral liquid in the refrigerator. Protect it from direct light and moisture. Do not freeze. You may store the oral liquid at room temperature for a short period of time (not more than 15 days). If you see a slight haze or cloudiness in the bottle, leave it out at room temperature and shake it until the haze disappears. Throw away any unused medicine after 30 days.
In deciding to use a medicine, the risks of taking the medicine must be weighed against the good it will do. This is a decision you and your doctor will make. For this medicine, the following should be considered:
Tell your doctor if you have ever had any unusual or allergic reaction to this medicine or any other medicines. Also tell your health care professional if you have any other types of allergies, such as to foods, dyes, preservatives, or animals. For non-prescription products, read the label or package ingredients carefully.
Appropriate studies have not been performed on the relationship of age to the effects of sirolimus in children younger than 13 years of age or in children considered to be at high immunologic risk. Safety and efficacy have not been established.
Appropriate studies performed to date have not demonstrated geriatric-specific problems that would limit the usefulness of sirolimus in the elderly. However, elderly patients are more likely to have liver and heart problems, which may require caution in patients receiving sirolimus.
|Pregnancy Category
|All Trimesters
|Animal studies have shown an adverse effect and there are no adequate studies in pregnant women OR no animal studies have been conducted and there are no adequate studies in pregnant women.
There are no adequate studies in women for determining infant risk when using this medication during breastfeeding. Weigh the potential benefits against the potential risks before taking this medication while breastfeeding.
Drug Interactions
Although certain medicines should not be used together at all, in other cases two different medicines may be used together even if an interaction might occur. In these cases, your doctor may want to change the dose, or other precautions may be necessary. When you are taking this medicine, it is especially important that your healthcare professional know if you are taking any of the medicines listed below. The following interactions have been selected on the basis of their potential significance and are not necessarily all-inclusive.
Using this medicine with any of the following medicines is not recommended. Your doctor may decide not to treat you with this medication or change some of the other medicines you take.
Using this medicine with any of the following medicines is usually not recommended, but may be required in some cases. If both medicines are prescribed together, your doctor may change the dose or how often you use one or both of the medicines.
Using this medicine with any of the following medicines may cause an increased risk of certain side effects, but using both drugs may be the best treatment for you. If both medicines are prescribed together, your doctor may change the dose or how often you use one or both of the medicines.
Other Interactions
Certain medicines should not be used at or around the time of eating food or eating certain types of food since interactions may occur. Using alcohol or tobacco with certain medicines may also cause interactions to occur. The following interactions have been selected on the basis of their potential significance and are not necessarily all-inclusive.
Using this medicine with any of the following may cause an increased risk of certain side effects but may be unavoidable in some cases. If used together, your doctor may change the dose or how often you use this medicine, or give you special instructions about the use of food, alcohol, or tobacco.
Other Medical Problems
The presence of other medical problems may affect the use of this medicine. Make sure you tell your doctor if you have any other medical problems, especially:
Sirolimus belongs to a group of medicines known as immunosuppressive agents. It is used to lower the body's natural immunity in patients who receive kidney transplants.
When a patient receives an organ transplant, the body's white blood cells will try to get rid of (reject) the transplanted organ. Sirolimus works by preventing the white blood cells from getting rid of the transplanted organ.
Sirolimus is a very strong medicine. It can cause side effects that can be very serious, such as kidney problems. It may also reduce the body's ability to fight infections. You and your doctor should talk about the benefits of this medicine as well as the risks.
This medicine is available only with your doctor's prescription.

Hi there.
I know, this is not supposed to happen, but for some reason I get an OUT_OF_MEMORY error when calling glDrawArrays. Yes I know, it doesnt say anything about that in the reference pages...
I am checking for gl errors each frame (for debugging purposes) just in case I missed to check after any openGL command. There are no errors at all, unless I insert this line in my program:
If I comment that line out nothing happens, everything works fine. But when its uncommented I get the error.Code :glDrawArrays(GL_QUADS, 0, 4);
Can anybody explain to me why this could happen? Its not even a heavy application or anything, its just a small little test program doing almost nothing.
Thanks in advance.

It was sweets for a cause as The Lewiston Village Pub and Restaurant presented "Cupcakes for a Crown" last Sunday. Featured was a student cupcake competition fundraiser, with proceeds going to assist Lewiston-Porter freshman Grace Breen as she prepares to enter as a representative in the Miss Teen USA Contest.
Students from area high schools, including Williamsville East, Niagara-Wheatfield, Grand Island and Lew-Port, participated in the event, which featured music by the Lew-Port youth band The Brass Monkeez, servings of appetizers and beverages and, of course, tasty cupcakes.

The Colorado Civil Rights Division has ruled in favor of Coy Mathis, a transgender 6-year-old girl who was was barred from using the girls' bathroom at Eagleside Elementary School in Fountain.
The Transgender Legal Defense & Education Fund said Sunday it would a hold a news conference on the steps of the Colorado State Capitol at noon Monday to explain the decision.
"Schools should not discriminate against their students, and we are thrilled that Coy can return to school and put this behind her," Kathryn Mathis, Coy's mother, said in a statement. "All we ever wanted was for Coy's school to treat her the same as other little girls. We are extremely happy that she now will be treated equally.
The Fountain-Fort Carson School District 8 told Coy's parents in December that the first-grader would not be able to continue to use the girls' restroom after the holiday break.
The family filed a civil rights complaint in February.
"This ruling sends a loud and clear message that transgender students may not be targeted for discrimination and that they must be treated equally in school," said the funds' executive director Michael Silverman stated. "It is a victory for Coy and a triumph for fairness."

Jurassic Box Office Indeed! JURASSIC WORLD Trails Only TITANIC And AVATAR!
They did it! JURASSIC WORLD ($1.52b) is now in the sole possession of third place on the all-time world box office list trailing just TITANIC ($2.2b) and AVATAR ($2.8b).
That is one heckuva accomplishment and my family contributed solidly to the effort I might add. Universal in fact has never broken the billion dollar mark with a movie before as hard as that is to believe. This year? They did it twice - JURASSIC WORLD and FURIOUS 7 ($1.51b). Nice movie line up guys!
Can STAR WARS: THE FORCE AWAKENS continue the solid march of the box office this year? One would definitely think so considering the buzz the movie's been getting. We'll see in December!
Congratulations to the JURASSIC WORLD team and director Colin Trevorrow!! Good on you!

Here we go again! Mackenzie Douthit, one of the four young women set to star in the upcoming Teen Mom 3, is engaged. Or should we say engaged again?
Douthit has managed a feat uncommon among Teen Moms -- both stars of the show and out here in the real world. The cheerleader who got pregnant because she worried that birth control would make her fat has managed to keep up a relationship with boyfriend Josh McKee, father of son Gannon. In fact, the couple was already engaged during their episode of 16 & Pregnant.
So why was Douthit posting on Twitter this week that she just said yes?
Turns out the Oklahoma couple has remained a couple through it all -- the birth of a son, Josh being nearly paralyzed in a car accident, everything -- but they decided to remove the pressure of "being engaged" ... for awhile, anyway.
More from The Stir: 'Teen Mom' Catelynn Lowell & Tyler Baltierra Have No Business Eloping
Then suddenly they started talking about moving to San Diego and presto, change-o, we get a picture of Mackenzie's ring and her admitting she and Josh are planning to get hitched.
Could this be for real this time? I know it sounds naive -- we are talking about a girl who shares airspace with Jenelle Evans and her relationship drama -- but Mackenzie and Josh seem to have taken a rather, gasp, adult path toward relationships? They backed off the pressure when it was too much, for one. And they have managed to stay together for a year and a half after the birth of their little guy.
Purely from the Teen Mom fan's perspective, this could be big for the show because it will provide viewers with something unique. We've already seen the likes of a single mom whose boyfriend is deceased (Farrah), seen a single dad take over when the mom went to prison (Amber), watched couples get married and break up (Leah), seen couples break up and fight (Kailyn, Maci), seen a girl lose custody and go through a slew of relationships (Jenelle).
Seeing a healthy marriage come out of a teenage parenting situation? That could be good for Mackenzie and Josh ... and good for America!
What do you think? Could this be the couple that defies the odds and makes it?

Micro-greens have become the tiny big thing in many independent sit-down restaurants, but they are a pricey addition to dishes. They can cost upwards of $100 a pound.
Enter a home-grown idea: in-house hydroponics.
Drawing chefs' attentions at the May National Restaurant Association show in Chicago was a showcase of in-store hydroponic gardens that allow restaurants to grow their own, everything from micro basil and lettuces to Swiss chard and chives.
The NRA set up a special area where attendees could see the small-scale hydroponic gardens in action, including a vertical setup shown here from AMB Eco, a Des Plaines, Ill.-based company.
The hydroponic gardens come in a variety of sizes and use artificial light, nutrient-enriched circulated water and coconut-fiber growing media to produce the little pesticide-free sprouts.
The systems provide year-round cultivation and reduce water use in a small footprint.
Homaro Cantu, executive chef at Moto and iNG restaurants in Chicago, said he was able to recoup the costs of his $11,000 system in about three months.
Given the wide variety of chefs, both corporate and independent, who visited the hydroponic garden at the show, this is an idea that's, um, growing.

As God Lives
Against the backdrop of the spiritual and cultural climate detailed in the book of Judges gleams the little story of redemptive romance called Ruth. The contrast is vivid. While "everyone did was right in his own eyes" (Judges 17:6, 21:25), the worthy man Boaz looks at pathetic, poor, widowed, foreign Ruth and says, "As the LORD lives, I will redeem you" (Ruth 3:13).
What is Boaz saying, really?
One short thing that communicates a few things:
First, he is saying his plan to redeem Ruth (and thereby the clan of Elimelech) is as sure as there is a God in heaven. "Will you redeem me?" Ruth asks, and Boaz says (in a way), "Does the pope wear a funny hat?" That kind of thing. Only he's more reverent than me.
Secondly, and more deeply, what Boaz is saying is that he is going to redeem Ruth because God lives. Boaz is the strange sort of man who does things because God exists. In this sense he is the most logical of men. Does God exist? If so, much must be different about my life. I ought to live my life as if God exists.
What if we all applied this standard to our motivations and determinations? What would our lives look like if we really believed the LORD lives?
Thirdly, and deeper still, Boaz is committing to redeem Ruth -- to paraphrase C.S. Lewis here -- not because a God lives, but because this God lives. This means he is going to redeem her in the Lord's way and for the Lord's purposes. "LORD" is all caps, denoting the divine name there -- YHWH. "As this personal one true God lives, I will redeem you." According to YHWH's glory, to make his name great, to exalt and glorify the God who is my God, Boaz will do this.
Ruth's redemption is not only or primarily for her glory, nor is it only or primarily for Naomi's or Boaz's or Elimelech's or Mahlon's. It is God's glory first and foremost that Boaz redeemed Ruth, and of course we don't just see this in his words or in this short history but as we trace the history through the ages to the first chapter of the Gospel According to Matthew.
As the LORD lives, we have been redeemed. Let the redeemed of the LORD say so.

Jared -
great treatise here. I wonder what your stance is on using this kind of language (maybe even resurrecting this kind of language) today?
I've often felt there were good circumstances to include such a statement ( 'as surely as the LORD lives') but have felt constrained by the Christ's words to swear by nothing but simply 'let our yes be yes ...'
What say you?

I think what Jesus (and later James) are getting at is that if one has integrity, insisting an assurance is unnecessary. In fact, insisting an assurance implies a lack of integrity. Simply say yes or no, and then follow through.
I find the assurance swear in view here different than a variety of other kinds of oaths throughout the Bible. Jesus and James are correcting empty sloganeering that takes God's name in vain, ultimately. Boaz is committing to do something for God's glory.
Here's a decent survey of biblical oath-taking: http://www.reformed.org/webfiles/antithesis/index.html?mainframe=/webfiles/antithesis/v1n1/ant_v1n1_oaths.html

Tagged: Pan American Games
Prospect Watch: Roger Kieschnick
Roger Kieschnick made his first professional season a memorable one. In 2009, the Rockwall, Texas native ranked third in all of Minor League Baseball with 110 RBI. He mashed a team-leading 37 doubles and 23 home runs, earning himself the California League Rookie of the Year Award. He was named a mid-season and post-season California League All-Star. And, to top it all off, he helped the San Jose Giants win the California League Championship.
Kieschnick didn't come out of college with a typical resume, though. In his freshman year at Texas Tech, Kieschnick was named Freshman of the Year and a member of the First Team All-Big 12 by the conference's coaches. Kieschnick followed up his freshman campaign by being named to the Second Team All-Big 12 in his sophomore and junior seasons.
College baseball players tend to flock to wood-bat leagues in the summer, getting more playing time and using the equipment utilized at the next level. Kieschnick, however, participated in international tournaments with the United States National Team. He won a gold medal at the World University Championships in 2006 and a silver medal in the Pan American Games in 2007.
The international experience provided Kieschnick not only with the familiarity of facing some of the best baseball players that are his peers, but also performing in front of the professional baseball gatekeepers: scouts.
The outfielder entered MLB's First-Year Player Draft as a junior in 2008, feeling he had done plenty to impress the scouts with his bat, arm and range. The Giants selected him in the third round, but he did not appear in a pro game that summer.
He did not go into hibernation during his first professional offseason, however. Kieschnick played in the defunct Hawaii Winter Baseball league in 2008. He was a teammate of Buster Posey and Steve Edlefsen with the Waikiki BeachBoys. The trio helped the BeachBoys win their first (and the last) Hawaii Winter League baseball championship. Winning seemed to be following Kieschnick wherever he went.
The international experience, the winter league stint and his stellar season as a first-time professional provided Kieschnick with plenty of momentum entering 2010 – his first at the Double-A level.
By July of that season, Kieschnick was forced to the disabled list with back inflammation. His second pro season was cut short to 60 games, and he hit just four home runs in 223 at-bats – a distant number relative to his 23 in 517 at-bats in 2009.
The 2011 season became even more important for Kieschnick than it already was, and he did not disappoint. Kieschnick returned to Richmond, where he was named an Eastern League mid-Season All-Star and hit 22 doubles, five triples and 16 home runs in 126 games. He did not quite match his 2009 offensive output, but the Eastern League is known to be more of a pitcher's league, especially compared to the high altitudes and windy locations of the California League.
The Giants rewarded Kieschnick with a 40-man roster spot in November of 2011, providing him with a secure mindset going into 2012. With the 40-man spot comes an invitation to Major League Spring Training, which is his second time taking part in big league camp.
Kieschnick seems to be an organizational favorite. All signs point to him appearing at the Triple-A level in 2012, possibly as soon as Opening Day. With the types of numbers put on display in the Pacific Coast League, Kieschnick may provide plenty of power for the Grizzlies.

Away sailed the chosen
To the unknown seas
With scattering thoughts
Of whom they're bound to be
Temptation and Dreams
In their hearts are sown
Back to platinum shores
Through Every Storm
As they ride the storm of ages
Their light ceases to be
It runs down extinguished
Conquered by the sea
Forever, in siege
By the oceans of the world
The true fire burns on
Through Every Storm
So, what do you think?

Oh, actually we're aiming for a soft one in Through Every Storm. Perhaps a simple riff with some "soft" distortion or something but definitely nothing to heavy.

NASA has announced that one of its pioneers in the business of getting the United States into space and then contributing to maintaining the U.S. presence in space and on the Moon has died. Obviously, the title indicates that would be John Young.
I used what in my view is an appropriate rank, even if he was retired.
Oh yes, and here was a real professional in every sense of the word's meaning, but even he could break the rules on rare occasions. And I'll make that plural, because I'll bet that Gus Sandwich wasn't the only time he broke the rules. Those who are risking their lives for a great cause are prone to loosen their brain cells up a bit by playing tricks and sometimes playing tricks means a rule, or two, will be broken.
Let me start this off with the BBC link, even though he didn't fly for the RAF.
Wait! He flew for all of us on Planet Earth, didn't he?

First the blue sea and its gently lapping waves.
Then fine, golden sands framed by cliffs and rocks. The cosmopolitan atmosphere of an international tourism destination. This is the Algarve of beach holidays in the sun. Portimão and its municipality have much more to offer though: a rich heritage of historical monuments; the eternal natural beauty of the Ria de Alvor; the charm of cultivated fields, of slopes covered with pine trees and wild flowers as you climb up into the hills of the "serra", your days in the Algarve thus gaining a whole new dimension.

There's no shortage of hatred between Ducks fans and San Jose Sharks fans.
Lingering somewhere between Ducks-Kings and Ducks-Red Wings, the Southern California-Northern California rivalry has ratcheted up since the 2009 playoffs when the Ducks upset the top-seeded Sharks.
San Jose got some measure of revenge with five victories in six meetings last season, but the slate is wiped clean as the teams meet for the first time this season Saturday.
Which San Jose players do Ducks fans love to hate? And which Ducks players draw the most ire from San Jose fans?
The Register ranked the top five on each side.
