CLEVELAND HEIGHTS, Ohio -- Coventry Village was peaceful and quiet this morning, shop owners sweeping their sidewalks, hanging colored lights in a tree out front or serving breakfast to regular customers.
But they -- and most visitors to the popular East Side street -- were also chattering about the action taken Wednesday night by Cleveland Heights City Council: Starting tonight, police will arrest anyone under 18 not with a parent or guardian who is in the Coventry or Cedar-Lee commercial areas between 6 p.m. and 6 a.m.
Parents and guardians who pick up the youths after their arrest will be fined $50.
The council's reaction was in response to what many consider is a growing problem with flash mobs, especially Sunday night during the Coventry Street Fair.
City officials Wednesday confirmed that large crowds of young people intimidated patrons of businesses within the two commercial districts.
Tommy Fello, owner of Tommy's Restaurant on Coventry, said there may have been "thousands of teens" who would not move from the area after 11 p.m.
"There was no respect for authority," Fello said. "Businesses, restaurants, had reservations canceled. There were so many people that if you had a stroller, there was nowhere to stroll."
Fello and others said the curfew might be necessary for a time to get control of the neighborhood during weekend nights and during festivals.
Others on Coventry this morning said the 6 p.m. curfew was unreasonable. Since Sunday's events, a number of people have disputed just how bad the unrest really was.
"I think they're a little scared of what could happen," said Adam Bauer, 20. "Personally, I feel that a curfew is a bad idea. If you'e 17 years old, you should be able to walk up and down this street at 10 o'clock at night."
Cleveland Heights police said they arrested about 15 teenagers, but said the flash crowd problem started before the Coventry Street Fair incidents. There were also arrests during the 2010 fair.
The city's previous curfew said no one 16 years of age or older, but under 18, could be out between midnight and 6 a.m. Youths 12 or older, but under 16 years of age, could not be out between 10:30 p.m. and 6 a.m.
City Council will reconsider the new curfew hours in 30 days.

The flu can make you feel miserable, though it's not usually serious. Most teens get better after resting at home for a couple of days. But a few people need to pay extra attention when they get the flu. Call your doctor for advice if any of these things apply to you:

Second Time Around: Reflections from COP17 to COP18
For a week I have been trying to put my finger on the cause of the fog that I feel at COP18.
Durban felt better than Doha. There is a lingering feeling that something vital is missing, and I'm sorry to say that I am underwhelmed because of it. To be fair, last year was my first COP, and there's always something extra special about the initiation experience because the future experiences tend to have diminishing returns.
I'm not jaded, but definitely hoping for something more and not finding it. Perhaps it is because we are a few months out from Rio+20, and there is a "big conference fatigue" amongst the crowd at the end of 2012. Maybe I'm just disinclined to sift through the rhetoric of the negotiations to see if the tone of the text has shifted a fraction of a degree to the left or the right, and instead I'm looking for vitality in the spaces that are actually accessible to my participation.
Location, location, location: Durban vs. Doha
Simply put, South Africa had much more to prove than Qatar. South Africa hosted COP17 on the heels of the 2010 World Cup, which helped to promote its standing as a thriving developing country that had the capacity to welcome the world to its doorstep. They set a tone of seriousness and ambition that had an impact on the quality of the conference. Doha seems to be quite comfortable in its desert oasis, insulated from the realities of entrenched poverty and social challenges that typically greet you in developing countries.
I feel an obvious disconnect between the purpose of the COP and the location where it is being held. The country host of the COP sets tone and some of the priorities for the conference. I'm sure that if the Maldives could host a COP, the focus would be very different. Many countries are coping with resource scarcity and the unavoidable effects of climate change, and the difficult tradeoffs that follow. However, the scale and pace of growth in Doha is mind-numbing. Cranes and construction pepper the landscape and almost everything is new. Absent is the atmosphere of restraint or scarcity. Present is the perception that man can engineer his way through any challenge, with the help of more oil than you can shake a stick at. Being here makes you forget that the world is in the midst of a major economic recession.
In a desert country where water is more expensive than oil, there are very few conference side events that address anything related to water reuse or conservation or water technology. Qatar's water comes from massive desalination plants, and 95% of all their food is imported because it is more costly to use their own water to grow their own food. Qatar's population of 1.8m is slightly larger than the island of Manhattan. The low hanging fruit of sustainability challenges in this region of the world was ripe, yet mostly left unpicked.
The Venue
Every COP has two major venues, the conference center and the expo center. There are also several off-site side events in area hotels.
In Durban, both venues were in the same location and you could easily walk between them. This helped to make the massive complex feel more like a unit, and it facilitated connections and conversations between delegates. Over the course of two weeks, I frequently ran into the same people. The interactions transcended the obligatory networking opportunities to achieve something moving in the direction of friendship. The layout also helped to give a sense of critical mass to the tens of thousands mulling around. I think this was key in generating a sense of energy and excitement around the conference which I feel is lacking this year.
In Doha, the conference center and expo center are a cool thirty minute bus ride apart. Furthermore, the Qatar Sustainability Expo isn't worth more than an hour of your time because it is, as one delegate called it, "a propaganda machine". It is basically a showcase of fossil fuel companies' renewable energy and clean tech projects, trying to prove that they too are a part of the climate change solution. I understand that oil and gas companies have both a financial and public relations stake in moving in this direction, but it smacks hard of greenwashing. I don't think that anyone goes to a major environmental conference hoping to see how business as usual is really the wave of the future.
Group Love
In Durban, our hotel was an hour from the conference center. Our enterprising TA Angel Hsu was eventually able to secure direct transportation, which greatly eased our logistical challenges. As a result, the majority of the group was traveling together to and from the COP on a daily basis. This aided greatly in fostering the group cohesion, and kept the morale high throughout the trip. We were also more familiar with each others projects, and were able to share the highs and lows of the day over breakfast or the bus ride. Here in Doha, we are closer to the convention center and everyone comes and goes at their own time, or in small groups. I feel that the transportation changes have definitely altered the feeling that we are all part of a larger Yale delegation.
COP19 and Beyond
COP19 will be held in Warsaw, Poland. Yale will likely send a fresh team of delegates to experience the conference first hand. Opportunities like these are what make the Yale education a unique and coveted privilege. I think it is important for us to continue to have a presence at COPs because we are the future leaders who will inherit this system, and need to understand how it functions and what we need to do to improve it. Yale is a global institution, and international conferences are one of the ways that we connect our efforts to the world. Students also come with fresh ideas and interesting projects that add real-world experience to their academic interests. They are especially helpful in providing much needed capacity to countries with small delegations, particularly small island states.
However, there are practical limitations to what can be gained from attending these mega-conferences. With a few exceptions of students who provide direct support to party delegations, we are perpetual outsiders like many of the non-negotiating participants. Most of us hope to track specific climate-related issues that are subsets of the negotiations because those are the issues that we really care about the most. Students may be better served to attend smaller conferences that are more targeted to their area of interest, and could also provide better access to the professionals in the field for networking, research and future job prospects, in addition to a greater sense of efficacy from participation.

TRAVERSE CITY, Mich. (AP) — The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency is distributing $8 million to universities and nonprofit groups for scientific research to prevent exotic species invasions in the Great Lakes region.
Officials said Tuesday the money is being divided into 21 grants. Some of the funded projects will focus on prevention and early detection, while others will deal with controlling species invasions already under way.
Michigan State University, Notre Dame and the University of Toledo are receiving grants to refine techniques that signal the presence of foreign fish and other organisms by detecting their DNA in the water.
DNA from Asian carp has been found in Chicago-area waterways near Lake Michigan and in Lake Erie. Questions remain about whether the genetic material came from live fish — and if so, how many.

Reporting from Washington — The news that unemployment dropped again amid signs that the economy is gaining steam arrives at a perilous moment for the GOP, which has fashioned much of its political message around the argument that President Obama's policies suppress job growth.
According to the Labor Department, the jobless rate has dropped a full percentage point — to 8.8% — since November 2010, coincidentally when the GOP made its major gains in Congress and seized control of the House.
Key Republicans reacted Friday by saying the numbers were good, but not good enough. But given the state of play on Capitol Hill, with a government shutdown looming and a Republican bloodthirst for more spending cuts, there was little more to say beyond that.
"Even with this good news, far too many people remain out of work and we need to continue our efforts in Washington to foster pro-growth policies that will help businesses small and large to innovate and expand," said Rep. Eric Cantor of Virginia, the House majority leader.

How are the members from New Zealand doing?
What can we do to help out?
Bronwyn is okay (she lives a bit further south from Christchurch) and busy putting together lunch boxes for the studen rescue workers!
The Big Onigiri.
- Wherever you go, there you are. -
God bless, Bronwyn and the nurturing power of bento.
In 1989, after a massive earthquake hit the San Francisco area, a local food program that provided at-home meals for people with AIDS began providing meals for emergency workers and shelters for displaced people. I volunteered there for several weeks until my own injury prevented me from continuing. Working on the assembly line packaging food helped me to overcome the fear and helplessness I felt after the earthquake. There was an urgency to what we were doing, but the head chef would sometimes come by and remind us to slow down. He said that the neatness and arrangement of the food in the containers was important. As i write this, i realize that we were creating bento boxes for hundreds of people a day.
The only thing they want is money! Sounds mercenary, but there is no shortage of food, clothing, water, etc. Just money to pay for them. Many companies are donating everything from water transport (Fonterra, the big dairy company) to laundry facilities (Fisher & Paykel, who make excellent whiteware), and free LPG refills for barbecue bottles (one of the gas companies), but they can't continue to cover all of the costs indefinitely.
In addition to the Canterbury university students forming a volunteer army to help clean up the lesser damage, a group of farmers is doing a similar thing, and a bunch of helicopter pilots in Rangiora have formed the Rangiora Earthquake Express, helicoptering in hot meals for the rescue worker teams who have arrived from around the world. Locals in Rangiora (close to Christchurch) are cooking the meals and taking them in to be picked up by the helicopters.
The main problem for Christchurch residents is emotional trauma. Many of them are getting out, just not able to cope with the aftershocks. You can just imagine how little sleep they're getting! All of my Christchurch based relatives are OK, and there is only one friend I don't know about yet. Their houses are a bit wrecked though.
On behalf of my country I'd like to thank everyone around the world for the support that's pouring in in the form of donations and practical help. The urban rescue teams are amazing.
My blog is Food and Shoes
That said, the situation is nothing like as dire as Haiti, for example. We have a good state- and insurance levy- funded earthquake relief fund and we are what Americans would call a socialist country — plenty of state-funded aid for those unable to work for one reason or another. People who have mortgages have home insurance (or they won't get a mortgage). There will be people in bad financial straits; renters without insurance and the many small business owners, but there won't be what you would recognise as poverty. The value of our dollar is taking a hit, but it's still higher than it has been for most of the last 20 years.
You wouldn't believe it, but the Christchurch newspaper managed to continue publishing and delivering to homes without a break, although its office building is unusable. This was a boon to the tens of thousands of households who had no electricity and therefore no other way of knowing what was happening in the rest of the city.
I am glad to hear that Bronwyn is well and uninjured. (-_-)
Efforts are starting to get under way to send help to our stricken friends.
Perhaps we can hold a raffle or something like that here to collect donations.

• Make us resistant to coercion by adversaries using the threat of such an attack to induce concessions
• Reduce the chance of large-scale conventional war between nuclear-armed adversaries because of the shared fear of escalation
• Extend a guarantee to allies and partners, reducing the proliferation of these weapons and, thus, the likelihood of their use
The mission of our nuclear forces is to threaten what an adversary values, thereby averting an attack of this nature on us, our friends, or our regional partners. Deterrence is a matter of perceptions. Its effect takes place in the mind of an opponent living in another country with different values, pressures, and goals.
Its purpose is to influence the other guy's decision making, not ours. This is so simple, yet so easy to forget. The world's foremost experts struggle to decipher Kim Jong-un's thought process, but he may well believe he cannot survive without these weapons. He may feel that they are his source of power. It is possible he believes he holds the ultimate trump card and threatens using nuclear weapons to influence calculations in future international engagements.
Nine countries have this capability. This means conflicts similar to those playing out with North Korea and to a lesser degree Iran will continue to make headlines. The value of our deterrence is that it limits aggressors to threats. They cannot hold us or our partners at risk because we maintain forces that are credible, survivable, and ready. Additionally, our nuclear power may delay hostile action long enough for negotiations to relieve tensions. Kim Jong-un must understand that if he attacks, we will respond with a strong resolve, and that we have an assured second-strike capability.
What is more, our readiness influences China and Russia, both nuclear-capable countries with wide ties and significant sway. The credibility of our nuclear forces and our resolve must remain clear to these great powers as they exert pressure on rogue leaders.
And we must remember that decisions we make now affect the believability of our deterrence later, as we analyze an uncertain future based on what we know today and our best estimate of coming trends. As our nuclear forces reach the end of their lives, we must take action to keep our capability strong and flexible.
President Barack Obama has taken a position consistent with those of many prior administrations. The responsible action now is for us to reaffirm our embrace of a strong nuclear deterrent, thus reducing the chances of proliferation and miscalculation. We must not flinch from this critical test of national character.
Our planned 12 ballistic-missile submarines will provide strategic nuclear deterrence into the 2080s. As we debate the merits of various programs over coming years, we must not lose sight of the fact that they guarantee our very existence, deterring potential enemies from using weapons with unimaginable consequences.
Captain Cockey heads the Sea Based Strategic Deterrence Branch in the Undersea Warfare Directorate on the staff of the Chief of Naval Operations.

Now pushing fifty, Murray Whelan is spinning his wheels in parliament - a toothless cog in Labor's stalled political machine.
But when the remains of a long-lost union official are found in dried-up Lake Nillahcootie, Murray soon gets sucked into some murky waters. For a start, it seems that his old mate Charlie Talbot was implicated. But Charlie has just dropped dead of a coronary occlusion in the dining room of the Mildura Grand Hotel, leaving behind a lot of unanswered questions. The press are sniffing around and Labor's enemies are lining up for a free kick. Then there's the blackmail attempt.
And as if that wasn't enough, there's an ALP preselection going pear-shaped.

After more than 20 years of not going to a grocery store, restaurant, or public place alone, not driving out of my safe area and not attending school functions for my children, I began my difficult recovery from panic disorder, agoraphobia, and social anxiety disorder.
Although it took a great deal of convincing and courage on my part, I sought help from a therapist. Many times I thought about reverting to my safe haven, but my therapist kept asking me if I wanted to spend the next 40 years guided and directed by my fears. Did I want to be free to go to the store or drive to any destination? Or was I going to spend the next 40 years making and creating clever excuses as to why I was unable to participate in living, laughing, and being whole?
It was time to be honest with myself. I was determined to recover. Then and only then did I experience my first stages of anger. It was a healthy anger — an anger that was followed with a determination to not quit and to learn to love and forgive myself for all that I was.
I do not remember a specific day when I first began to feel safe. I do remember learning not to be ashamed of having agoraphobia, not to be ashamed of my physical symptoms, and not to be ashamed of my recovery. I learned to become my own "safe person." I began to take back the power that I had given away so many years ago — to other people and other things — to keep me safe.

The Details:
• 2014 Mercedes-Benz S-Class unveiled at the Airbus factory in Hamburg, Germany
• S-Class Benz expected to go on sale in September 2013
• Rear styling reminiscent of the CLS
• New option to control car features by smartphone app
• Rear passenger airbags integrated into seatbelts
The 2014 Mercedes-Benz S-Class, expected to go on sale in September 2013, was unveiled at the Airbus factory in Hamburg amidst fireworks and a crooning Alicia Keys accompanied by the string section of the Hamburg Philharmonic.
Mercedes describes it as the safest car in the world, yet doesn't use a single light bulb. There are, however, around 500 LEDs stashed in various places to provide the necessary illumination.
Styling reveals that the steroidal fender flares of the outgoing car are gone, the rear is reminiscent of the CLS, and the flanks now bear a similar V-shape that adorns other Benz models.
It's also one of the slipperiest luxury cars around, with a drag coefficient of 0.24. The sleek Audi A8 comes in at 0.28.
Benz's proprietary Comand system uses a control wheel like a mouse, but now there's the option of controlling many of the car's features by smartphone app.
The interior boasts fine leather and brushed aluminum accents, and passengers are "hot stone" massaged and secured by multi-tasking seats. This is the first S-Class where the long-wheelbase version was the initial one, allowing M-B to offer reclining rear seats and folding aircraft tables – much like the now-defunct Maybach.
The level of technology employed includes lane keeping, blind spot monitoring, crosswind control, collision avoidance, and driver attention assistance. There's also an apparatus that employs forward-looking stereo cameras (set into the rearview mirror) that scan the road surface ahead and adjusts the suspension for optimum ride quality.
Other cameras and radar sensors keep a constant watch on what's happening around the car to help the driver make the right decision at the right time, and provide things like brake assistance exactly when needed. Rear passengers can now enjoy the benefits of airbags integrated into their seatbelts.
Prices for the 2014 Mercedes-Benz S-Class will be announced closer to the sale date of September 2013. For a ballpark figure, the 2013 S550 starts at $95000, brings 429hp and 15/25mpg (city/highway) to the table. The first new US-spec model will be the S550, with an all-wheel-drive S550 4Matic option. The S63 AMG is in the pipeline.

Brain Studies Reveal Big Differences Among Depressed Individuals
Depressed people may have far fewer of the receptors for some of the brain's "feel good" stress-response chemicals than non-depressed people, new University of Michigan Depression Center research shows.
And even among depressed people, the numbers of these receptors can vary greatly. What's more, the number of receptors a depressed person has appears to be linked with the severity of their symptoms -- and the chances that they'll feel better after taking a medication.
These preliminary findings, presented Tuesday at the American Psychiatric Association's annual meeting in Washington, D.C., amplify a growing understanding of depression as a condition that affects different people in different ways. The new data, and other researchers' findings, are showing that depression is solidly rooted in genetic and molecular factors that are unique to each individual.
The lead U-M researcher, Jon-Kar Zubieta, M.D., Ph.D., says these new results bolster what other researchers have been finding in recent years.
"There's a substantial amount of biological difference even among people who have major depression, which is just as important as the biological differences between people with depression and people without," he says. "The more we can understand about these differences, the better we can address treatment to the individual and have the greatest effect on symptoms."
At the APA meeting, Zubieta presented data from positron emission tomography, or PET, scans of the brains of patients who met the criteria for major depression but had not yet received treatment for it. Those scans were compared with scans of the brains of non-depressed comparison volunteers.
In one group of depressed and non-depressed volunteers, the scans were made using a tracer that can reveal the location and concentration of a particular type of receptor. Called the 5HT1a receptor, it allows brain cells to receive signals from serotonin, a chemical neurotransmitter produced by the brain.
Serotonin levels in the brain are linked to depression, but the importance of 5HT1a receptor concentrations in the brains of depressed people has been cloudy. That's why Zubieta's team chose to scan only people who had not yet received antidepressant medications, since some such medications may actually encourage the brain's cells to make more serotonin receptors - and mask the actual level of receptors that the person has naturally.
In the study, 5HT1a receptor concentrations were markedly lower in depressed people compared with non-depressed people, in both the left and right hippocampus regions of the brain.
But even among depressed people, the lower a person's 5HT1 receptor levels were, the worse he or she scored on assessments of the ability to function day to day - and the less likely he or she was to get relief from symptoms when the researchers prescribed a common antidepressant.
This finding of individual variation may help explain why in current depression treatment, some patients find great relief from a medication that doesn't help other equally depressed patients, says Zubieta, who is the Phil F. Jenkins Research Professor of Depression in the U-M Department of Psychiatry. He also holds positions in the U-M Nuclear Medicine division, and the Molecular & Behavioral Neuroscience Institute.
The other group of volunteers - both depressed and non-depressed -- received PET scans with a tracer that allowed the researchers to see the mu-opioid receptors in their brains. These receptors are the gateway for signals sent by chemicals called endogenous opioids -- the brain's natural "painkillers" - which are involved in stress response, including response to pain.
Another name for the neurotransmitters that bind to mu-opioid receptors is endorphins, which have become known as a "feel good" chemical involved in reinforcing rewarding experiences. Illicit drugs such as heroin also act upon mu-opioid receptors, creating the "high" sensation and probably playing a role in the addiction process.
In this group of depressed and non-depressed volunteers, the researchers studied the distribution of the mu-opioid receptors and looked at how active the receptors were when the volunteers were asked to summon a sad memory or scenario to mind.
Depressed volunteers had lower concentrations of mu-opioid receptors to begin with. But when they underwent the "sadness challenge," those receptors were much more active than the receptors in non-depressed people. And, just as with the serotonin 5HT1a receptors, the fewer mu-opioid receptors a person had, the less well he or she responded to an antidepressant medication.

Bluffton's volleyball match Tuesday against Ashley Ridge was over in a hurry.
The Bobcats wiped out their opponents 25-7, 25-11 to complete a perfect run through SCHSL Region 8-AAAA competition. They went 10-0, winning every match 2-0, to capture the region title and clinch a No. 1 seed in the state tournament.
And that's about how the Bluffton athletic program's move up into South Carolina's highest classification has gone this fall - without a hitch.
The region championship the Bobcats volleyball team clinched two weeks ago was Bluffton High's fourth this school year.
First, the boys and girls swim teams dominated the Region 8 meets in Beaufort last month. Both teams' point totals almost doubled those of their nearest competitors. They fared well at the Class AAAA state meet in Columbia a few weeks ago, with the boys finishing eighth and the girls ninth.
Then the girls golf team, the defending state champion in Class AAA, earned title No. 3 on Oct. 11 by winning its region tournament. Five players made the all-region team for Bluffton, which travels to Myrtle Beach National for the AAAA Lower State tournament Monday.
The volleyball team is set up for a nice playoff run with home-court advantage through the Lower State semifinals, and the school has a chance to add more trophies by the end of the fall.
Bluffton's football team entered Friday's showdown with Fort Dorchester at 2-0 in the region, tied with Summerville for first place in the region. The Bobcats are seeking their third consecutive title. Considering the competition, this would be the most impressive one yet.
The boys and girls cross country teams will run for a pair of titles as well in the region meet Wednesday at Colleton County.
Only the girls tennis team is assured of finishing out of the top spot, but those Bobcats are extremely young and must deal with a true state powerhouse in Beaufort. Coach Bob Brown says his team can still make some noise in the postseason, which begins Tuesday.
A lot was made of the move after the last reclassification was announced. It was a new world for Bluffton athletes, a host of schools they had never faced.
But the initial returns indicate that the Bobcats are going to be just fine.

Music subscription service Rhapsody says that Apple's new rules for subscriptions for iPhone and iPad apps are "economically untenable" and it has teamed up with other music services to consider options, possibly including legal action.
The new rules put music services into a tough spot because unlike magazine publishers they are already paying substantial fees to record labels and music publishers.
Apple's new rules are modeled on the subscription service introduced for the News Corp magazine app, The Daily. If a user buys a subscription through the app, the app developer or publisher will have to give Apple 30% of the subscription revenue -- just like Apple takes a 30% cut from all app sales in the App Store.
Today, Rhapsody doesn't even offer in-app purchases as an option on its iPhone app -- when users want to sign up, the app opens Safari to Rhaspody's Web site, where they can go through the sign-up process. The new rules allow Rhapsody to continue doing this -- and to keep all the money from subscriptions purchased through Rhapsody.com -- but it ALSO must offer in-app subscriptions for the same price and give Apple its 30% cut.
Rhapsody says it cannot continue to "offer our service through the iTunes store if subjected to Apple's 30 percent monthly fee versus a typical 2.5 percent credit card fee."
The service now has 750,000 subscribers -- more than any other U.S. subscription music service -- and has Android and BlackBerry apps as well as bundling deals with wireless carrier Verizon and consumer electronics companies. Less than half of Rhapsody's users come through iTunes.
Users might still be able to get Rhapsody on their iPhones through the Web site, but performance won't be nearly as good as having a dedicated app. In other words, fans of all-you-can-eat subscription music services are out of luck on the iPhone -- unless Apple begins offering subscriptions through iTunes.

Mountain bikers can look forward to lower prices, sharper looks and more braking power as Shimano roll-out upgrades to their second-tier Deore XT groupset to mark its 30th birthday. In line with tradition, the new XT will inherit many of the changes introduced to XTR last year, but despite the updated technology, Shimano say we can expect the price of the complete groupset to drop by around 10 percent.
Plenty more for XT
Versatility seems to have been the word written across the blackboard in big, bold letters at the XT development lab. The groupset will offer a dazzling array of options designed to address the requirements of cross-country, trail, all-mountain and 'trekking' riders alike. The chain and cassette are two of a very short list of components that have escaped redesign – and that's only because they were updated last year when XT went 10-speed.
While Shimano continue to tout the benefits of a 3x10 setup, XT's position as a staple for the cross-country market has been acknowledged with the introduction of a two-ring crankset, with a 38-26T option for trail riders and 40-28T for racers. Less shifts means less work for the left-hand shift lever, but rather than complicate things with multiple lever options, the new XT lever features a mode converter for easy adaptation between three- and two-ring setups.
Braking will get a big boost, with the Ice Tech technology unveiled on XTR last year being passed down to its sibling. XT will benefit from the same striking cooling fins and one-way bleed system, as well as new rotors with the same stainless steel/aluminium/stainless steel construction. All-in-all, Shimano claim a 25 percent increase in braking power as well as vastly improved heat dissipation.
The big S are also introducing dedicated XT-level 'trail' and 'race' wheelsets for 2012. The former has 21c tubeless-compatible anodised aluminium rims, with a 15mm E-thru hub up front and a choice of 12mm E-Thru or quick-release axle out back. The 'race' option has narrower 19c rims, with a quick-release rear hub and a choice of QR or E-Thru up front. All the wheels have cup-and-cone bearings, Center Lock disc mounts and 24 stainless steel spokes.
The new groupset will be offered in either silver or black. The latter will provide a good match for the new XT pedals which, as with XTR, include an integrated cage trail option (PD-M785) as well as a slimmer race version (PD-M780). Both have a much bigger surface contact area than the current M770 for improved stability, along with a slimmer axle housing for improved performance in mud.
- Crankset: 42-32-24T triple, 38-26T double or 40-28T double
- Rear derailleur: Improved Shadow design
- Front derailleur: Angled adjustment screws and clamp bolt for easier fitting and maintenance; direct mount option
- Chain: New 10-speed HG-X directional
- Cassette: 11-36T, 11-34T or 11-32T (CS-M771-10)
- Shifters: Rapidfire Plus with Vivid indexing (as on XTR); Instant, Multi- and 2-Way Release; mode converter allows use with double and triple cranksets
- Brake levers: Lightweight, with Servo-Wave technology, free stroke adjuster and tool-less reach adjuster; one-way bleeding system; Ispec compatible
- Brake callipers: Compact, with oversized 22mm ceramic pistons and one-way bleeding system
- Brake rotors: Ice Tech technology (aluminium core embedded in stainless steel) for improved heat management; 160/180/203mm with Center Lock or six-bolt mount
- Brake pads: Optional Ice Tech pads with aluminium cooling fins
- Pedals: Lightweight cross-country (PD-M780, 343g/pair) and integrated cage trail (PD-M785, 408g/pr) versions
The new XT will be available from July, with pricing TBC.
Trick new bits for 'trekking'
Shimano have broadened XT's appeal by developing a series of components and features aimed at commuters and leisure cyclists, or in their terminology, 'trekking' cyclists. Durability and practicality is the aim of the game here, with full-length outer casings, hub dynamos and an integrated chain guard for the front end of the 10-speed drivetrain.
The trekking group comes with a choice of V-brakes or Servo Wave disc brakes with three-finger levers. The discs don't get the mountain bike brakes' cooling fins but they do come with Ice Tech rotors (160 or 180mm, Center Lock or six-bolt). Shimano claim a 14 percent increase in stopping power over the current equivalent – a considerable improvement for those weighed down by panniers and racks.
The Hollowtech II crankset will be available in two versions: FC-T781 (48-36-26T or 44-32-24T; chain case compatible) and FC-T780 (48-36-26T: not chain case compatible). Both feature an integrated chain guard. Out back, there'll be a choice of 11-32T or 11-34T cassette.
Two new 6V-3.0W hub dynamos are available. DH-T785 is a disc brake version with Center Lock rotor mount, while DH-T780 has been designed for use with V-brakes. Both have an aluminium coil and axle, bringing weight down to a claimed 483g.
There's a new trekking pedal to go with the two XT mountain bike options – the double-sided (SPD binding on one side, flat on the other) PD-T780. Claimed weight is 392 g/pair, including integrated reflector. Like its mountain bike stablemate, the groupset will come in a choice of black or silver. Availability is slated for August 2011.
XTR Shadow Plus rear derailleur
At the launch of the new XT, Shimano also unveiled a new XTR M985 Shadow Plus rear mech. Designed to complement the 'trail' rather than 'race' variant of the group, it has an on/off switch on its cage which can be used to add more spring tension and activate a 'friction stabilizer'.
The idea is that you switch this on to stop your chain bouncing when riding over rough terrain – preventing it from derailing or damaging your drive-side chainstay, and also cutting noise – but flick it off at the end of your ride to reduce the spring tension and make it easier to remove your rear wheel. The new mech will be available from June. There's no word yet on pricing.

Zucchini Carpaccio, two versions
I'll share the frozen dessert recipes soon, as well as wax lyrical about Alanna's beetroot pesto (I simply cannot have two beetroot posts in a row, can I?) and Dagmar's choco-coffee pavlovas. Here are my versions of zucchini carpaccio. Although the zucchini carpaccio recipe de jour - according to Kalyn - is Clotilde's version with crumbled goat cheese and poppy seeds or Courgette au Coquelicot en Carpaccio, I relied on a recipe from Food Network. I had two medium sized zucchinis, one green, one yellow, and both pretty gorgeous. I went Mediterranean with the green zucchini, and slightly Arabic with the yellow one and liked them both equally (using sumac instead of lemon for the required sharp element). Which one would you prefer?
Green Zucchini Carpaccio with Rocket
1 medium-sized green zucchini
Maldon sea salt
black pepper, coarsely ground
extra virgin olive oil
lemon juice
parmesan shavings
rocket leaves, torn into pieces
Slice zucchini into very thin rounds either with a sharp knife or mandoline (the latter is much easier). Overlap the zucchini disks in one layer, season with salt and pepper. Drizzle with olive oil and a generous squeeze of lemon juice. Garnish with parmesan shavings and rocket.
Serve immediately.
Yellow Zucchini Carpaccio with Sumac & Mint
1 medium yellow zucchini
Maldon sea salt
black pepper, coarsely ground
extra virgin olive oil
fresh mint leaves
Parmesan shavings
Slice zucchini into very thin rounds either with a sharp knife or mandoline (the latter is much easier). Overlap the zucchini disks in one layer, season with salt and pepper. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with sumac, garnish with parmesan shavings and fresh mint leaves.
Serve immediately.
A year ago I wrote about forageing for honey-coloured cloudberries. Two years ago I reviewed reviewed Alexandra Antonioni's book "Eat Me: Love, Sex and the Art of Eating" and was amazed to see that the author herself popped by to leave a comment.

Mmmm, zucchini carpaccio! I often make a big platter of it at summer barbecues as a salad, scttered with capers and topped with pecorino and a wholegrain mustard dressing: http://cooksister.typepad.com/cook_sister/2004/09/whole_salmon_on.html
I love the neatness of your presentation - mine is a very different affair with the zucchini in long ribbons and arranged a la Jackson Pollock :)

Lydia - it's summery, and perfect for a warm summer day - as long as you make it at the last moment, or otherwise it'll wilt!
Meeta - well, I do need to offer something else in addition to a movie, no?
Tanna - I've given the other beetroot recipe now, too. Glad to hear you wouldn't have minded, if I had posted them in a row :)
Susan - I'm thinking of making into a monthly occasion. Next month - "Memoirs of a Geisha" and some Japanese food :)
Figs Olives Wine - it was a pretty lovely spread indeed..
Lemongrass, This Little Mainyacha - thank you!
Joey - I love the colours, too!
Thredahlia - nojah :)
Jeanne - I remember your zucchini carpaccio - everybody who attended the Henley picnic in 2005 (?) was singing praises to it!!! Thanks for reminding me of your version!

Is there another name for Sumac? Here in Canada we have a shrub that is commonly known as "poison sumac" - I highly suspect we're not talking about the same thing.
- 1:33 am, August 26, 2007
- Pille said...
Chz - indeed, you're right. What is known as sumac spice are "the drupes of the Genus Rhus [that] are harvested, the hairy coating removed and then ground to a deep-red to purple powder" (Wikipedia). The only sumac species that is used for spice in Europen is that of Rhus coriaria L.
Poison sumac (Toxicodendron vernix) never has red berries, but grey or white, which makes it easy to distinguish from 'spice sumac'.

New Year holidays in Hungary
This article is a travel topic
Local traditions[edit]
Travellers mix[edit]
For the case you'd like to follow your citizens (or alternatively to escape them for your New Year holidays), here's how travellers from different countries typically celebrate New Year and spend time on the holidays:
Drink[edit][add listing]
Hot wine/glintwein is sold everywhere in Budapest and every touristic destination, starting from 110ft in small towns to 250ft and more on the streets in Budapest.
Get In[edit]
Consider Malev's Budapest Winter Invasion special offer: see Budapest:GetIn:ByPlane.
Get around[edit]
Auto traffic is not high in the last days of December, jams in the tourist part of the city are really rare these days.
On NY night, night buses are not following the schedule perfectly, and can be easily late 10 or 15 minutes.
See[edit][add listing]
Do[edit][add listing]
Skating rinks[edit]
Eat[edit][add listing]
Rule of thumb for dinner on Dec 31 is: either a restaurant is open all night (and is closed for NY program well before it starts), or it doesn't work at all on Dec 31 (and maybe even Jan 1). Therefore, you're very unlikely to find a dinner even for 7pm or 8pm without buying an overnight program.
Dinner prices range from 15.000ft (in restaurants at Liszt Ferenc tér) to 25.000ft (Rivalda on Castle Hill in Buda) and higher.
Street food[edit]
For Christmas and New Year days, there're food stalls set up at Vörösmarty tér offering skewer meat, pancakes, sauerkraut and grilled sausages, vegetable mix with good ratio of onion, and hot wine. In winter time, they "live" few minutes until get frozen, though.
In winter time, all touristic streets are full of grilled chestnuts.
For mass winter gatherings (like skating rink at Roosevelt ter), sweets are also cooked on the streets, like rolled kalacas (tubes of pastry rolled over a spill, and then grilled similar to doner kebabs).
Most restaurants/clubs at Liszt Ferenc tér have some program for New Year night (NY06/07).
Besides, the following restaurants have an overnight program (NY06/07):
The following restaurants are closed: Malomto in Buda-Dec 31..Jan 1 (NY06/07).

Mayor Don Wesely today introduced the Emergency Beacon, a light bulb that can be useful in helping emergency officials locate those in need of help. Aging Services is partnering with the city Police and Fire Departments and the Lincoln Electric System (LES) to make the beacons available in the Lincoln area.
"In rural areas and in some urban neighborhoods, it can be hard for emergency personnel to find addresses, especially at night," said Mayor Wesely. "In some situations, time can make the difference between life and death, and these Emergency Beacons can provide a signal to emergency crews."
The 60-watt bulbs fit in standard porch lights, and are to be used after placing a call to 911. The bulbs are activated by switching the light on and off three times, which triggers the bulbs to flash in a strobe manner. The beacon is visible for up to a mile-and-a-half at night and 125 yards in the daytime. The Emergency Beacon, which retails for $19.95, is available for $8.50 from LES, 11th and "O" streets. Neighborhood associations can purchase boxes of 25 bulbs and have them shipped directly.
Pilot projects were conducted in the Autumnwood neighborhood of Lincoln and with interested users of the Emergency LifeLine Units. In June, 43 beacons were distributed at an Autumnwood Neighborhood Association meeting. About one-third of the Emergency Lifeline Unit users who were contacted have requested a beacon.
The product is recognized by the National League of Cities, the National Crime Prevention Council, McGruff's "Take a Bite Out of Crime" Program and various crime prevention agencies around the country.
Older citizens who would like more information about the Emergency Beacon can contact the LIFE (Lincoln Information For the Elderly) office 441-7070.

SYDNEY - Australian media Tuesday praised the rearguard action by South Africa to save the second Test and said their survival will feel like a win going into the third and deciding showdown this week.
Debutant Faf du Plessis batted throughout the final day for a defiant unbeaten century to guide the Proteas to a thrilling draw in Adelaide, spending almost eight hours at the crease in a feat of physical and mental endurance. "No faffing about from Du Plessis," said the Sydney Morning Herald, with cricket writer Malcolm Knox saying the match had everything bar a winner. Or maybe not," he added.
"South Africa's survival will certainly feel like a win as they go into Friday's decider, while Australia's failure to dismiss them in 148 overs will deflate their self-belief beyond quick repair." The Australian newspaper called Australia's inability to nail the win an "heroic failure" while praising the contribution from Du Plessis, who was at the crease for 464 minutes and faced 376 balls in his draining 110.
"One of the joys of Test cricket is when a player explores the limits of their capabilities, proves something they always wondered if they could do, finds a reserve hidden even from themselves," the paper's Gideon Haigh wrote. "Faf du Plessis discovered some things about himself in this marathon Test match in Adelaide -- as have his opponents."
Sydney's Daily Telegraph also praised Du Plessis' "dogged debut" while bemoaning Australia's inability to find a consistent top order. While David Warner got a century in the match, Ed Cowan, Rob Quiney and Ricky Ponting all struggled, with the run-scoring burden being shouldered by Michael Clarke and Mike Hussey.
Quiney was dropped for Perth after making a pair of ducks with Shane Watson returning. The Telegraph's cricket writer Malcolm Conn said the top order was not sustainable as it was. "The bottom line is Australia need to find a more functional and stable top order than the one which has left them three wickets down for under 100 on 16 occasions in the past 16 Tests," he said.
Australia must win the series in Perth, which starts Friday, to take the world number one ranking from South Africa.

A young cowboy from Texas goes off to college
Half way through the semester, having foolishly squandered all his money.... he calls home.
"Dad," he says, "You won't believe what modern education is developing! They actually have a program here at A&M that will teach our dog, Ole' Blue, how to talk!"
"That's amazing," his Dad says. "How do I get Ole' Blue in that program?"
"Just send him down here with $1,000" the young cowboy says, "and I'll get him in the course."
So, his father sends the dog and $1,000.
About two-thirds of the way through the semester, the money again runs out. The boy calls home.
"So how's Ole' Blue doing son?" his father asks.
"Awesome, Dad, he's talking up a storm," he says, "but you just won't believe this -- they've had such good results they have started to teach the animals how to read!"
"Read!?" says his father, "No kidding! How do we get Blue in that program?"
"Just send $2,500, I'll get him in the class."
The money promptly arrives. But our hero has a problem. At the end of the year, his father will find out the dog can neither talk, nor read. So he shoots the dog.
When he arrives home at the end of the year, his father is all excited.
"Where's Ole' Blue? I just can't wait to see him read something and talk!"
"Dad," the boy says, "I have some grim news. Yesterday morning, just before we left to drive home, Ole' Blue was in the living room, kicked back in the recliner, reading the Wall Street Journal, like he usually does".
"Then Ole' Blue turned to me and asked, so, is your daddy still messing around with that little redhead who lives down the street?"
The father went white and exclaimed, "I hope you shot that lying dog before he talks to your Mother!"
"I sure did, Dad!"
"That's my boy!"
The kid went on to law school, and now serves in Washington D.C. as a Congressman.

Roughly 10 months ago, Guy English likely ingested far too much Melange and presciently wrote a piece on the problems he saw facing Apple as they scaled through the post-iPhone era. Third among them, From Kicking Bear:
It's been maybe three years since the team that has defined what we now know as iOS were granted options. Look at the share price then and look at the share price now.
Ultimately, the retention of talent will be Apple's Achilles' heel.
John Gruber of Daring Fireball argues that English should have made that his first point. Gruber's comment was sparked by this tweet by Dan Frommer:
This is not at all a scientific study, but most of the Apple employees I follow on Twitter have quit within the last ~9 months. Huh.
Gruber added that it wasn't an exodus, and it's not. Former Apple employee Justin Reid explained it this way:
It was a village and became a city overnight. Village folk don't necessarily like living in cities.
When you've made the current big thing, when you've made the money that comes with being in at the beginning, and when the world around you has grown from something secret and small to something universe-dentingly famous, you might just find decide you pick up your bags and your fortunes and go off in search of the next adventure.
Likewise, Apple is hiring as well, and hiring some phenomenally talented people. They're also promoting and consolidating from within. More than an exodus, it represents a changing of the guard, and the influx of fresh talent and ideas, could also help Apple in their own search for what's next.

text: Well after 10 months of owning my phone; always the love/hate thing going on I have decided to go another route. The last straw was the headphone squeal/hiss that kept getting worse. My first CLN replacement had a nearly recessed power button right out of the box (Jan/2012 build date). And even with the ICS 232 leak my data drops keep happening. The 2nd replacement was no better; Jun/2011 build. Never activated it; called VZW and I'll have my Nexus today. I will miss this forum; you peeps here are great and good luck with OTA ICS coming soon. Take Care, Craig

Integrated Circuit Image Gallery
Binary Countdown Integrated Circuit
The trend of dramatically increasing the embedded electronics content of automobiles, elevators, jet engines, and other traditionally electro-mechanically controlled systems is accompanied by a proliferation of subsystems having separate central processing units (CPUs). The demand for a means of communication to coordinate action among multiple CPUs is driving the increased reliance on chip-based communication protocols. Known formally as a binary countdown circuit, a counter is an integrated circuit that is often used to provide protocol for wired or wireless communication systems such as local area networks (LANs) and wide area networks (WANS).
View a low magnification image of a binary countdown chip.
Protocol chips are embedded in the medium access control (MAC) mechanism, the heart of the digital communications network. The MAC determines how the network resources (wire, fiber or RF frequency) will be shared among nodes. Its determinism, efficiency, prioritization, and protocol optimizations set bus traffic and system performance. The protocol chips that define the medium access control system set bandwidth message delivery times through priorities and robustness considerations. Many of the counter processors are marketed as programmable for network developers and special applications.
In a binary countdown protocol, a station trying to seize the channel, broadcasts its address as a binary bit string (4 digits), starting with the high-order bit. All addresses from the other stations are Boolean "OR-ed" together in parallel. Then, beginning with the highest-order bit, if a station detects a higher bit in the address mask, it yields the channel. In this manner, multiple users efficiently share a network or ring, with the "bidding" game repeated after each transmission (broadcast period). Binary countdown protocol is better than using the basic bitmap, because of its added efficiency (short contention time) and it doesn't need to grow as the network grows.
Alternatives to the collision-free binary countdown system are collision-based (time-multiplexed) and token-based implicit/explicit scenarios. Binary countdown, known also as bit dominance protocol, is best suited for systems lacking a central controller node. It also allows a moderately large number of message types and provides an arbitration overhead constant, and global prioritization. To avoid collisions, stations make reservations for the channel beforehand during the contention period. However, there is no mechanism for fairness with higher addressed stations having built-in priority. One solution is to use virtual addresses for stations with a station switching to the lowest address after a successful transmission.

The amazing creativity and deliciousness of our local farmers/growers/bakers around Portland never cease to amaze me! A bunch of sugar pea tops/flowers, and some Thai flowers for a stir fry caught my eye and I couldn't say no… such delicate, pretty things that are also edible? and I never even knew the existed? I've been missing out! Food texture is just as important to me as flavor, and almost anything can win me over if it is fun and looks beautiful. The Thai flowers tasted nice and slightly sweet and lemony; the pea tops basically tasted like broccoli. But I like broccoli.
We just dropped the stems, leaves and flowers in the wok with some garlic, soy sauce and oil – simple and delish.
The leftover buds I added to one of my favorite vintage vases. I particularly love the tiny curly-cues.

Location: Plant Introduction Research
Project Number: 5030-21000-058-01-S
Project Type: Non-Assistance Cooperative Agreement
Start Date: Sep 24, 2012
End Date: Dec 31, 2015
Determine the potential of Amaranthus species germplasm accessions as an alternative lignocellulosic biomass crop for bioenergy.
An annual herbaceous crop with C4 type photosynthesis with an upright growth habit, the genus Amaranthus grows in both temperate and tropical climates. The U.S. National Plant Germplasm System's (NPGS) amaranth holdings include grain, vegetable, ornamental and weedy types. High-yielding weedy amaranths are known to continue vegetative growth following grain harvest, and offer potential as an alternative, lignocellulosic bioenergy source (Brenner et al., 2000). It produces a large amount of biomass in a short period of time and can grow in marginal production areas and tolerates water deficient conditions. Because it has a C4 photosynthetic pathway, it is able to maintain relatively high rates of carbon dioxide fixation. Amaranth cell wall biochemical composition analyses indicate it is an equally viable candidate as maize, switchgrass and miscanthus for biomass feedstock production. Currently, the Germplasm Resource Information Network (GRIN) does not contain evaluation information for amaranthus biomass. Evaluation for biomass and chemical constituents can provide basic information for the breeding of alternative biofuel feedstock. Germplasm evaluation will identify promising germplasms as potential commercial cultivars and/or parental lines for future molecular breeding applications. High-biomass and low-lignin fermentation candidates, identified via this research, will serve as an alternative next-generation biofuel (non-food) crop for small stakeholders and growers to support the biofuel industry. Grain and stem dry matter (DM) samples will be evaluated for forty amaranth accessions of 20 diverse species, supplied by the NPGS Amaranth curator, for biomass and cell wall biochemical composition. A complete random design experiment with three replicates will be conducted in each of two growth environments (greenhouse and field). Entries were seeded in 18-well trays in late-April 2012 and transferred into 3-gallon containers in the greenhouse, subjected to 18 hour daylength and high fertility for 60 days. Another set of seeds will be sown in one row plots, 6 m long and 1 m apart, planted in mid- or late-May 2012. Biomass yield (wet and dry matter): Grain and stem sections will be harvested from fully mature plants, dried at 80F for 48 hours or until completely dry, ground for further cell wall composition analysis, and data on grain and stem biomass yield (wet and dry matter) will be collected. Cellulose, hemi-cellulose, and lignin content will be measured using the methods of Fu et al (2011) in the laboratory of Iowa State University, Ash, carbon, and sulphur contents will be analyzed using the methods of Viglasky et al. (2009) in the laboratory of University of Arkansas. Growth habit, plant height, adult stem color and diameter, leaf size, flowering time and color, seed color and size, and maturity will be recorded during the growing season, using standard GRIN Amaranthus phenotypic descriptors, at the Texas AgriLife Research Center at Dallas, TX. All data will be returned for loading in the GRIN database by NPGS Curator.

There is currently no available "Beginner" label. The following is the default level label: Dr. Charles Canedy may have worked in this ward of convalescing soldiers and civilians in the town of Vladivostok, where he had been sent in the winter of 1918-19. Canedy was a part of a large contingent of American troops sent to Siberia during the Russian Civil War (1917-1922). To the right, a child appears to be recovering well, as do most of the others in this ward. Hospitals tended to group patients at similar stages of recovery. This ward appears to contain patients nearing discharge. A tall porcelain stove at the end of the ward staves off Siberia's intense winter chill.

ymark needed a new web page design and created a contest on 99designs.
A winner was selected from 62 designs submitted by 11 freelance designers.
We are a Dutch online marketing firm that creates websites (such as http://www.hinta.nl) to organize the product range of several online retailers at one website, so that consumers can find and compare products and navigate to the corresponding webshop.
AlleJurkjes.nl - a website that will show a range of dresses of several retailers - will be one in a series of multiple similar fashion-websites, each for another fashion-niche (e.g., jeans, shorts, skirts, sweaters etc). In other words, this design will be used for several other fashion-websites as well, each with another name and logo.
The winner of this contest will be asked for additional work (i.e. designing the logos for the other websites in this network, as well as a new webdesign project in similar style).
Edit: Note that the site is not an actual webshop, but a website showing the products of other webshops to compare one another.
The website(s) is/are primarily targeted at female fashion shoppers, while taking male consumers into account as well (i.e. when a male consumer enters the site, they should not get the feeling it is targeted only at females). Age range is broad, starting at 18 up to people in their 60s.
We're looking for a webdesign for a range of fashion ecommerce websites. Design should be optimized for 1024*768, delivered in a layered PSD and consist of 3 pages: the main-page, a category page and a product-page
Website goals
The primary goal is to let people navigate easily to their dress(es) of choice, and click to go to the corresponding fashion-store. Therefore, the call to action buttons (= clickouts to stores) should be eye-catching and "invite" to click. The secondary goal is to get people to subscribe to the newsletter.
The design should be clear and easy to interpret. To get an idea of what kind of designs we usually like, take a look at two site of ours: http://www.hinta.nl & http://www.emarky.nl. In this case, we would like you to get inspiration from http://www.mealeo.com, as it reflects the ideas we have in terms of "style".
Edit: I really like http://www.tastebook.com as well. I made some aditional points on that in a contest-comment.
The wireframes are an indication of the design, not a strict law. If you believe some parts should be positioned differently, don't hesitate to try that out and/or contact us as long as the main positioning (i.e. tabs on top, menu on left etc) are the same and all elements in the wireframe will be included in the design. Also, these wireframes are primarily made for positioning of all elements, not as a design of those elements (for instance, standard fonts and rectangles have been used, but that doesn't mean it should be implemented as such in the actual design).
Since the website is Dutch, we've included numbered wireframes to clarify each part of the website.
