The most popular is the Jorge "El Ranchero" Aguilar plaza, built in the 18th century in the heart of Tlaxcala City. Today it's known for its farms and textiles. Tlaxcala has a long and rich history of cultural diversity. Today, modern industries are bringing new prosperity to the inhabitants, but they are also threatening the region's unique customs and traditions.

A report by the US Geological Survey found that the region inside the Arctic Circle contains just over one-fifth of the world's undiscovered, recoverable oil and natural-gas resources.
The report, the largest-ever survey of energy resources north of the Arctic Circle, found that the area holds an estimated 90 billion barrels of oil and 1,670 trillion cubic feet of natural gas.
"Before we can make decisions about our future use of oil and gas and related decisions about protecting endangered species, native communities and the health of our planet, we need to know what's out there," said USGS Director Mark Myers in a press release. "With this assessment, we're providing the same information to everyone in the world so that the global community can make those difficult decisions."
Several news outlets are all over this story. Here's what they have to say about what I think are the most important questions:
How much is it, really?
Most news outlets that covered this story say that, at today's consumption rate of 86 million barrels of oil a day, the oil in the Arctic would meet global demand for three years.
Keith Johnson, The Wall Street Journal's environmental blogger, notes that it would be 12 years if the United States could keep all the oil for itself. "The Arctic reserves might bring a little relief to tight markets," writes Mr. Johnson, "but they don't look like the answer to declining production in oil fields in the rest of the world."
As for the natural gas reserves, The New York Times reports that the region holds about 30 percent of the world's undiscovered natural gas, an amount equal to Russia's proven gas reserves, which are the world's largest. But most of the natural gas estimated to be in the Arctic is also in Russia: as the Associated Press reports, the majority of it is concentrated in two Russian provinces.
How much would it cost to extract it?
Pumping oil out of the hot desert is one thing. Pumping it out of the Arctic seabed is another matter altogether. The New York Times's Dot Earth blogger, Andrew Revkin, calls Arctic drilling "ridiculously hard," and he directs readers to a story he wrote in 2004 that highlights the challenges of drilling there.
Johnson, The Wall Street Journal blogger, points to a USGS excercise in Arctic oil number-crunching [Excel spreadsheet] that calculates that a billion-barrel field would cost about $37 per barrel to extract, plus at least another $3 in exploration costs. By comparison, CNN reported last year that it costs about $2 per barrel to pump oil from the ground in Saudi Arabia, and $5 to$7 per barrel in Venezuela and Azerbaijan.
The irony of course is that global warming is making it easier to extract these resources by melting Arctic ice.
Who owns it?
Recent years have seen a race among the Arctic powers – the United States, Russia, Denmark, Canada, and Norway – to lay claim to the ocean floor at the North Pole.
But the USGS estimates that most of the oil is not at the pole, but near Canada, Russia, and the United States. The USGS found that more than half of the oil resources are in just three regions: Arctic Alaska (30 billion barrels), the Amerasia Basin (9.7 billion barrels) and the East Greenland Rift Basins (8.9 billion barrels).
More than 70 percent of the natural gas is thought to occur in three regions – the West Siberian Basin, the East Barents Basins, and Arctic Alaska.
So it looks as though Arctic Alaska has the greatest energy potential, with Russia also having an important stake as well, particularly in natural gas. But there is undoubtedly also some oil and natural gas in Arctic regions whose sovereignty is disputed.
The Globe and Mail, a Canadian daily, provides a breakdown of exactly where and how much all the oil and natural gas is (scroll down to the end of the story).
What's the environmental impact?
Dot Earth's Revkin discusses the possibility of an oil spill in icy Arctic waters: "The Arctic is a very different place," he writes, "both because the water is so much colder that oil tends to congeal more, and because sea ice (at least in winter these days) can stall the spread of oil but also make it harder to clean up."
But the question on most people's minds is climate change. If we were to burn all that oil and natural gas, how much CO2 would be added to the atmosphere?
According to the Environmental Protection Agency, a single barrel of oil emits 0.43 metric tons, or 948 pounds, of carbon dioxide. So 90 billion barrels would emit 38.7 billion metric tons of C02.
According to the Carbon Dioxide Information Analysis center, 1,000 cubic feet of natural gas emits about 0.052 metric tons, or 115 pounds, of CO2. Divide that by 1,000 and then multiply by 1,670 trillion, and we get about 87 billion metric tons of CO2.
None of these figures include the emissions produced by extraction or transportation of the fuels.
By comparison, current global consumption of fossil fuels produce about 27 billion tons of CO2 annually.

Premier League: Steven Gerrard scores two penalties as Liverpool beat Man Utd 3-0
Liverpool closed to within four points of Chelsea after Steven Gerrard scored two penalties in a 3-0 win at Man United.
Last Updated: 16/03/14 5:35pm
Gerrard converted from the spot in each half before missing a third penalty after Nemanja Vidic was sent off before Luis Suarez scored a late third to keep Liverpool, who have a game in hand on Chelsea, firmly in the title hunt.
Though chances were scarce during the first half, Liverpool played with a far greater intensity and tempo, and took the lead on 34 minutes.
Rafael was fortunate not to be shown a second yellow card in as many minutes after handling the ball following Suarez's clever touch and Gerrard sent David de Gea the wrong way from the penalty spot.
United briefly woke from their slumber as Wayne Rooney tested Simon Mignolet just before half-time, but Liverpool were awarded another penalty in the opening minute of the second half.
Phil Jones was penalised for a nudge on Joe Allen and, though De Gea guessed correctly on this occasion, Gerrard's precise penalty was beyond the United keeper's reach.
The Red Devils saw two penalty appeals waved away in the ensuing 10 minutes before Liverpool were awarded a third spot-kick when Daniel Sturridge went down under Vidic's challenge which resulted in a second yellow card for the United captain.
Gerrard stepped up for his hat-trick, only to strike the post, while Liverpool could have had a fourth penalty moments later when Sturridge appeared to be tripped by Michael Carrick.
Suarez was thwarted by a brilliant save by De Gea before the Uruguayan did beat the United keeper on 84 minutes with a neat finish after controlling Sturridge's mis-hit shot.
The manner of the defeat against their arch-rivals will be even more galling for United, who now have to lift themselves for the second leg of their UEFA Champions League tie at home to Olympiakos on Wednesday.
This time last year United were 29 points ahead of Liverpool. They are now 14 behind their bitter rivals with nine matches of the season left and the 11-point gap to fourth place looks insurmountable.
United were given an early warning sign after just two minutes when Sturridge sprinted past Vidic but shot wide.
Suarez then latched onto Jon Flanagan's cutting pass and sprinted into the United box but he did not go down when Marouane Fellaini pulled his shorts.
Sturridge again got the better of Vidic and Jones with a burst of pace, but he fluffed his shot, and De Gea made his first save from Allen.
Flanagan was booked for his third foul of the game and Rafael soon joined him for a pointless sliding tackle on Gerrard.
Moments later and Rafael handed the Reds the lead when the ball struck the Brazilian's outstretched right hand as Suarez tried to guide the ball past him.
Gerrard made no mistake from the spot, tucking the ball inside De Gea's left-hand post.
United had a strong five-minute spell before the break which involved Rooney drawing a top save from Mignolet, but just 30 seconds after the restart they imploded.
Jones clattered into the back of Allen and the referee pointed to the spot and Gerrard placed the ball to De Gea's left again.
United thought they should have had two penalties for a handball by Glen Johnson and a foul on Rooney by Martin Skrtel but referee Mark Clattenburg disagreed.
Robin van Persie, the man who won United the title last year, glanced a free header feebly wide from six yards.
A nightmare afternoon plumbed new depths when Vidic was given a second yellow card for bringing down Sturridge, although replays suggested the England striker had dived.
The only crumb of comfort for United was that Gerrard missed his hat-trick opportunity by hitting De Gea's right-hand post.
De Gea saved well from Suarez with eight minutes left but the Uruguayan did not miss moments later to complete a miserable day for United.

"Moneyball" is a baseball movie that is, of course, being promoted as more than just another baseball movie. Why the inferiority complex? As "Bull Durham" and "The Bad News Bears" and many other films have already demonstrated, baseball movies are just fine being about just baseball.
Maybe the motivation behind all this "more than baseball" stuff is that baseball movies, except in Japan and Latin America, are not big sellers overseas, where Hollywood films often make half their money. Better not to be typecast.
On the other hand, Brad Pitt, who stars in "Moneyball" as real-life Oakland A's general manager Billy Beane, is a global movie star. He is also, on occasion, an excellent actor, and this is one of those occasions. He provides ballast and a swaggering humor to a movie that, too often, strives to be "The Social Network" of baseball movies.
No surprise there, since that film's producer, Scott Rudin, and screenwriter, Aaron Sorkin, are also on board for this one. (The coscreenwriter is Steven Zaillian.) But the overrated "The Social Network" was about a cultural game changer. "Moneyball," based on the eponymous nonfiction bestseller by Michael Lewis, is about something lesser. Lewis's book is subtitled "The Art of Winning an Unfair Game," and that aptly describes the film. How did a small-market team like the 2002 Oakland A's stay competitive with the lavishly moneyed likes of the New York Yankees and the Boston Red Sox?
The answer was to remake the game. Instead of using seasoned scouts and coaches to seek out promising ballplayers using traditional methods and hunches, Beane had a "better" idea. Utilizing the system of resident spreadsheet nerd and recent Yale economics graduate Peter Brand (a composite character played by Jonah Hill), he single-mindedly went after low-priced, overlooked players with a high on-base plus slugging percentage, or OPS. These are the players who actually score runs.
Director Bennett Miller, whose feature debut was the excellent "Capote," knows that a tangle of flow charts and on-base statistics isn't going to cut it with audiences, even though that tangle is central to Beane's make-over of the game. Miller keeps the wonk factor to a blessed minimum. Some of the film's funniest moments play against the wonkiness, as when Peter, faced with a roomful of leathery, cynical scouts, calmly cites his stats while managing to look both imperious and mortified.
At the same time, Miller must also realize that "Moneyball," at least superficially, deromanticizes the game by reducing its successes to mundane number crunching. This is why he plays up Beane as a maverick, a glorious eccentric, even though what Beane is doing is, by ordinary standards, anathema to the spirit of baseball. (Beane's counterpart is the A's grizzled manager, Art Howe, wonderfully played by Philip Seymour Hoffman.) In place of the traditional sentimentalism about the glory of the game, Miller substitutes a dubious alternative scenario in which Beane's hard-earned successes are played down. That's how "Moneyball" works "heart" into a movie about the inutility of making front office decisions with your heart instead of your head.
The 2002 Oakland A's may not have won the division pennant or the World Series, but they came pretty close. They had a phenomenal run. The filmmakers, although they pay lip service to the competition-free values of gamesmanship, make it seem as if winning it all and winning nothing are life's only two options. They buy all too eagerly into Beane's funk at not being champ.
They also buy a bit too dearly into the whole OPS methodology. The A's, after all, had only the seventh-highest major league OPS percentage in 2002, and the third highest in their division. (The film neglects to mention this.) Obviously other factors were at work in their success. And, you may have noticed, heavily bankrolled teams like the Yankees and the Red Sox aren't exactly hurting in the wins columns these days.
"Moneyball" presents a misleading story line in order to prop up Billy Beane as some kind of would-be miracle worker antihero. In truth, he's just another tobacco-chewing go-getter trying to make sense of a game that, thankfully, has never quite made sense. Grade: B (Rated PG-13 for some strong language.)

Sometimes a girl needs to be pinched! Like when she passes her driver's test on the first try. Or when the boy she likes (finally!) asks her to the big dance.
Or when Kirkus gives her new book a good review!
Okay, the last one may have been more for me (or rather THE LAST ECHO) but it's still very pinch-worthy! And YES, Kirkus, I will go to the dance with you!!!
I mean, just look what they said about THE LAST ECHO:
Seventeen-year-old Violet returns in the third installment of the Body Finder series, this time working for a secret agency that specializes in using paranormal powers to fight crime.
For the first time since she learned that she is drawn to the locations of murdered dead bodies, Violet feels less of a freak. Although she doesn't understand all the paranormal abilities of her crime-fighting teammates, she feels as though she fits with them. However, she still loves her normal boyfriend Jay, so she worries about the strong physical response she feels whenever she touches Rafe, a member of the team. Meanwhile, Violet doesn't know she's become the target of a terrifying serial killer. As in previous volumes, Violet continues to reject simple safety precautions and hides all her worries from her parents. Her personal irresponsibility does not cause the danger when the killer attacks, however, and she demonstrates maturity and courage, assisted by a few doses of deux ex machina, when she fights back. She finally emerges as a mostly sympathetic heroine, even with the flaws that Derting often highlights. As always, this author writes a gripping tale, although she takes her time getting to the final conflict. Personalities come across quite strongly, as several of the characters tend toward the eccentric.
With another sequel set up, this intriguing series continues to provide great entertainment for suspense fans. (Paranormal suspense. 12 & up)
So I'll admit, I may have honed in on that whole "gripping tale" and "intriguing series", but honestly, can you blame me?
Seriously, somebody pinch me!!!
And to my new boyfriend, Kirkus, you can pick me up for the dance at 7:00! ;)


text: The first Europeans to visit Illinois were the French explorers Louis Jolliet and Jacques Marquette in 1673, but the region was ceded to Britain after the French and Indian War. After the American Revolution, Illinois became a territory of the United States, and achieved statehood in 1818. Located on Lake Michigan, and connected to the eastern ports via the Erie Canal, Chicago became a booming metropolis, and even the fire of 1871 could not stunt its growth. In the second half of the 19th century the great need for workers in the mills, rail yards and slaughterhouses made Chicago a popular destination for immigrants and freed blacks. During Prohibition Chicago became synonymous with bootleg liquor and gangsters like Al Capone.

I bought the pink version of this for my 2 year old. It doesn't feel heavy to me, but for her it was a bit hard to pick up. However,this bike is very sturdy and made extremely well. In less than a year my little girl was zooming around and could balance on it with her feet up. She is 4 now and still loves this bike,but she is a bit too tall/big for it now. She still gets on it anyway, and prefers this to the one with petals we gave her this past Christmas. Anyway, it has held up very well. The only thing in over 2 years that has shown any wear was the handlebar covers, which is pretty amazing considering she still rides this bike and it has been kept outside for the most part(although usually in our carport). This is a great balance bike for kids and I would recommend it.I wish they had one size bigger in this pre bike- I would definitely buy it!

Special Features
- The Postman's CGI Route: Explore the crafting of special effects sequences with commentary by creative team members
- Theatrical trailer
Kevin Costner directed and stars in this adaptation of David Brin's science fiction novel The Postman (1985), first published in 1982 issues of Isaac Asimov's Science Fiction Magazine. Costner's return to directing after his Oscar-winning Dances With Wolves(1990) is a futuristic epic depicting the aftermath of a destructive war. Some 16 years from the present day, America has been turned into a wasteland of separated communities minus a national government. A vagabond (Costner) who travels through these little villages performing Shakespeare is captured by marauders known as the Holnists, and thrown into a totalitarian labor camp run by a Hitler-like dictator, General Bethlehem (Will Patton). Making an escape, the drifter, known to some as "Shakespeare," stumbles across an abandoned U.S. Postal Service jeep and dons the dead postal-worker's uniform. With a scheme simply to get food, he sets out to deliver 15-year-old mail, proclaiming himself The Postman, and discovers that residents accept his lies about a restored United States government because they desperately need something to believe in. This hope leads to the thought that perhaps the United States of America could indeed be restored, so an unusually inspired young man, Ford (Laren Tate) is deputized with the "Neither snow, nor rain..." oath to become the country's second Postman. At the town of Pineview, the attractive Abby (Olivia Williams), who has an impotent husband, asks The Postman to impregnate her. After Abby's husband is killed during a raid by Bethlehem, she is taken prisoner but injures Bethlehem and makes an escape. Pregnant, she spends the winter nursing the wounded Postman in a snowbound cabin. When spring comes, they emerge to discover that Ford has organized an entire squad of mail deliverers who regard The Postman as a mythical hero. The Postman reluctantly accepts his messianic role in the rebirth of the country, even as it becomes clear that the rebel force must ultimately battle and defeat the Holnist army in order to regain the American Dream. ~ Bhob Stewart, Rovi

Welcome to the companion web site to C# in Depth.
C# in Depth is a book for those who are passionate about C#. It aims to be a bridge between the existing
introductory books and the language specification: something readable but detailed, exploring every aspect
of the language from version 2 onwards. In the interests of brevity, it doesn't spend much time on C# 1 -
readers are already expected to know the first version at least reasonably. Every new feature from C# 2
onwards is covered, however, as shown in the table of contents below.
One of my hobbies is helping other developers on sites such as Stack Overflow;
before Stack Overflow came along, I used to post a lot on the C# newsgroups. I've come to
appreciate that whatever technologies you might use on top of C# - MVC, WPF, Windows Forms, etc -
if you don't have a firm grasp of the language, you'll find it a lot harder. My hope is that
C# in Depth helps readers to really "grok" the language, so they feel they're working
in tandem with the compiler rather than fighting against it; making the most of new features instead
of constantly being caught out by subtle "gotcha" behaviour.

News Release
October 02, 1998
RICHLAND, Wash. —
Dr. Jean H. Futrell, a renowned physical chemist, has been tapped to lead the William R. Wiley Environmental Molecular Sciences Laboratory (EMSL) located at Pacific Northwest National Laboratory. EMSL, a Department of Energy scientific user facility, is dedicated to science and technology development aimed at solving environmental problems. Among his many scientific appointments, Futrell has served as a member of the EMSL scientific advisory board and as chair of its mass spectrometry facilities advisory committee.
Futrell comes to his new post from the University of Delaware where he is the Willis F. Harrington Professor of Chemistry, Biochemistry and Chemical Engineering. He is expected to begin work full time at EMSL in February 1999.
Dr. Futrell's research focuses on the physics and chemistry of ion-neutral interactions and their applications in analytical mass spectrometry. He has played a pioneering role in kinetics and dynamics of ion-molecule reactions and has made significant contributions to photochemistry and radiation chemistry.
He is internationally recognized for his contributions to the theory and practice of mass spectroscopy, with special interest in development of new instrumentation. He and his students were responsible for many of the major developments in tandem mass spectrometry, a key analytical technique in environmental chemistry and biotechnology. This background is excellent preparation for working with EMSL scientists who are responsible for several state-of-the-art and one-of-a-kind research instruments at the facility.
Futrell has authored more than 300 publications including 229 refereed journal articles. He has taught graduate-level science courses and lectured internationally, but also has taught introductory physics and chemistry to non-science majors.
Futrell is replacing Dr. Teresa Fryberger, who led the EMSL during its first year of operation as interim director. EMSL opened for full operation on Oct. 1, 1997. Dr. Thom Dunning directed EMSL during construction and startup of the scientific facility and since has returned to active research as a Battelle Fellow at PNNL.
The 200,000-square-foot EMSL houses up to 270 permanent staff, postdoctoral associates, visiting scientists and students. The research facility and its complement of advanced research equipment cost $230 million to build. The annual operating budget for the facility is $30 million. Its molecular science capabilities also are focused on energy and health issues and developing new materials.
Tags: Energy, Fundamental Science, EMSL, Operations, Chemistry, Mass Spectrometry and Separations, Facilities
Pacific Northwest National Laboratory draws on signature capabilities in chemistry, earth sciences, and data analytics to advance scientific discovery and create solutions to the nation's toughest challenges in energy resiliency and national security. Founded in 1965, PNNL is operated by Battelle for the U.S. Department of Energy's Office of Science. DOE's Office of Science is the single largest supporter of basic research in the physical sciences in the United States and is working to address some of the most pressing challenges of our time.

We're simply not sure if it's possible to rank acts of vandalism -- or even if there is any value to such a pursuit.
Whether a house has eggs thrown at it or a vehicle has its tire slashed, there certainly is a difference in monetary damage. But the act itself is a transgression capable of leaving the targeted person feeling violated or even victimized.
Still, it strikes us that vandalism against a house of worship enters into a different realm. Sanctuaries by definition, holy locations and buildings that suffer purposeful destruction encounter more than physical or psychological loss. Any time a spiritual aura that offers protection is instead attacked, it is difficult to use the word "vandalism" to describe what transpired.
Yet it happens. In the case of St. Andrew Episcopal Church in rural Ellis County, it happens repeatedly. The most recent act included a fire being set, theft of a prayer book, destruction of windows and pews, and liquor bottles being dumped and smashed against the walls.
The disheartening turn of events took place as the small congregation was gearing up for Palm Sunday. The historic church required approximately $3,000 to clean up and make repairs.
"We've had this stuff happen in the past," said Dan Johnson, a rancher and retired legislator who leads the prayer service twice a month at St. Andrew's. "This was really bad."
Bad, yes. Disgusting as well. And given our constitutionally protected freedom to worship as we choose, the responsible perpetrators were acting downright un-American. This wasn't merely a case of a prank gone awry or a night of partying gone wild. The attack was an assault on the very freedoms we all are afforded simply by residing in this great country.
We hope justice is served swiftly and harshly. The Ellis County Sheriff's office does not have suspects at this point, although there are persons of interest. Fingerprints lifted from the church have been sent to the KBI for potential identification.
We would encourage anyone with information about this disgusting act to call the sheriff's office at (785) 625-1040.

Justin Bieber's aides have denied reports the pop star spat Gatorade into a hotel gym user's water bottle.
Radio host Colette Harrington claims she was working out at the Ritz-Carlton Hotel gym in Charlotte, North Carolina on Tuesday when Bieber entered with a trainer and a dancer.
Harrington plucked up courage to ask the pop star for an autograph but he refused. She then claims the Baby singer and his pals mocked her throughout her workout and one of the trio spat Gatorade into her water when she wasn't looking.
The radio presenter tells TMZ.com, "I always count out loud my reps. Then Justin starts imitating me and whenever I'd get to 20 he and his buddy would say, 'Shut the f**k up'."
Harrington filed a complaint with the hotel after the alleged incident, but bosses there refused to confirm or deny her story.
And Bieber's representative tells the website that the accuser has her facts all wrong, stating that the singer and his trainer were in the gym, and they were making snide comments – but not addressed at her or her work-out routine.

Northeast Mega Truck Scene - Vermonster 4x4Posted in Events on March 17, 2014
Randy Oakley, the owner of Vermonster, is always pushing the envelope and always steppin' up the game. He has really taken a big lead in developing not only Vermonster events but the entire Northeast and New England Mega Truck scene too. You can obviously find Randy at Vermonster, but also Barnyard, Yankee Lake, Dennis Anderson's North vs. South events, Throttle King events, and even down in Florida. Randy is a busy guy and also has the Wicked North Mud Racing Team action going on. He also throws a lot of other side events, such as mud and mega truck races up snow-covered ski slopes. Needless to say, Randy is into all things mega truck and racing.
In addition to the snow bog, there are two major Vermonster events, one in the spring and one in the fall. Randy has had Mud Life and 4x4cross at his place several times. He has also had Trucks Gone Wild events and hosted TV shows at his place too. Last year he had the Mud Slingers TV show at Vermonster, cohosted by our friend Colt Ford.
The Vermonster events are legit. I remember the first time I went up there a couple of years back. It's quite a drive from North Carolina and then an even longer turn into a fairly remote area. However, come the weekend of the event the place is packed, so many people show up it's almost ridiculous—in a good way.
Vermonster has a cool setup too. It is held at a fairgrounds, and the spectator section has that cool country fair atmosphere with vendors and great food. Trackside is all business with mega trucks stacked deep waiting to hit all the different challenges and obstacles on the courses. They have side-by-side drags, rockcrawling competitions, a Tough Truck course, monster truck shows, Hill N Hole racing, and the famous truck-drowning monster they refer to as the Trench.
For this go 'round they held the big Mega Truck Challenge Yukon Gear & Axle National Throttle King Qualifying event. The race trucks and mega trucks had to compete in four different events for points to get the top spots. Doing so would get them purse money and qualify them for the crowning event at the end of the year. The Trench for time and distance, the Hill N Hole, the side-by-side drags, and the obstacle course are an all-out challenge. In the Mega Truck class, Ryan Shelton in Running With Scissors took Third Place, Jeremy Longto in Mechanical Bull took Second, and Kurt Zeller in Pit Viper took First. In the Race Truck class, Neal Gagne in Mad Maxx and Mike St. George in Slow Ride killed it.
If you hear any cool rumors about Randy Oakley, Vermonster, Truck Norris, or the Wicked North Racing Team then we highly recommend you go check the place out.
Special Thanks To:
Vermonster 4x4

As the R&D center that leads the biotechnology industry, we have focused on the development of industrial strains and the fermentation process technology, which are the keys for the fermentation business to industrially mass-produce nucleic acids and amino acids. Using the fermentation technologies we have continuously developed, we are improving the highly productive strains and introducing the high-efficiency fermentation process technologies to offer the world's best technology in producing amino acids and nucleic acids.
Moreover, we strive to develop various items in the future of the green bio industry based on world-class microbial enhancement and fermentation technology that we have accumulated over the years.
We have developed innovative products and acquired patents. As a result, the key product groups such as the lysine, nucleic acid, and threonine were selected as the world's top products by the Ministry of Commerce, Industry and Energy in early 2000.
And the L-threonine production technology developed using microbial genomics was selected as "Korea's Top Ten New Technologies in 2002". Moreover, the patented L-methionine production process using the world's first eco-friendly fermentation technology won the "Jang Young-sil Award" sponsored by the Ministry of Science, ICT and Future in 2015.
As a result of accumulating the technology in the sustainable, eco-friendly bio business, CJ CheilJedang became the first Korean company to be recognized as an excellent model for the implementation of the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) in 2015. Its practices have been introduced at international conferences such as the UN High-level Policy Forum.
CJ CheilJedang has played a pivotal role in the development of CJ Group as a world-class enterprise in the bio industry and contributes greatly to raising the domestic bio industry to the highest level in the world through repeated innovations in key technologies.
Since the establishment of the Feed R&D Center in 1987, the Feed Business Unit has striven to provide high-efficiency feed products and scientific breeding technologies to livestock farmers and supply safe livestock products to consumers. Since entering the global markets in 1996, we have established the R&D centers in Southeast Asia and China to support continued research and are expanding our global capabilities through partnerships with global feed companies.
We are securing highly value-added and highly cost-effective feed technologies with differentiated R&D centered on customer needs. In particular, we have developed anti-pathogenic materials based on the nutrient design for high-quality livestock products and anti-disease feed and applied them in Korea and other countries. In addition, we have secured cost competitiveness by discovering new raw materials and developing a raw material evaluation technology. We create the best value for our customers with a differentiated processing technology.
Furthermore, we provide the OnlyOne livestock specialty services through improvement of livestock productivity by developing advanced livestock technologies and customized consulting services specific to the livestock and country.
CJ CheilJedang strives to increase the profits of farm households with technology-intensive, value-added products and customized products specific to each livestock. We have developed piglet feed that reduces diarrhea and enhances immunity, efficient growing pig feed, and cattle feed that improves carcass yield and meat features and provides computer program services through differentiated CJ cattle modeling technology. In addition, we developed the world's first disease- preventing poultry feed that contains bacteriophages and received a good response in the market. Moreover, we strive to meet customized needs optimally by applying new natural materials and pollution- reducing materials to the feed.
We opened the world-class R&D farm featuring the best R&D systems for feed and livestock technology in Anseong, Gyeonggi Province in 2011. The farm has the infrastructure to develop cutting-edge products and conduct competitiveness tests. The facilities provide the platform to create differentiated values for our customers through methodical and scientific technology development for evaluation and application of raw materials used in feed mix design.

As I was trying to figure out what to write for this New Year's post, I originally thought I would slide stealthily into 2014, perhaps simply revisiting some ideas from last year. But God frowns on mediocrity. He is constantly calling us to himself, lovingly, gently (well, most of the time) and ever persistently. How we answer that invitation is up to us. Maybe I am supposed to step it up this year. Maybe you are, too.
We can feel him calling often, but we know that we do not always answer. What stands in the way? Maybe priorities. Maybe over-commitment. Maybe even distractions with all the blessings in our lives. Maybe deep down somewhere we fear where he might lead us. Or maybe we are just plain old lazy. I don't know. But I do know, at least for me, there are many areas in my life where I am not a faithful steward.
So here is what I have decided to do in 2014: shape up my life in a lot of ways, some practical and some maybe not so practical. Maybe it's cliché; maybe it's not. Maybe it's ambitious; maybe it's not. I can only pray I am holding his hand and following his lead.
Here goes. In 2014, I will:
These goals are somewhat personal to me, but I am sure you can relate. Take them, change the specifics and make them your own.
2014? Ready, set, go.
Shoot. That's a cliché.

I ain't worked on one of them slopeheads in a while but I believe you take the door off first then the front shroud pops off. You can take some small clips off each side to get the top up and then remove the filter and drum glide housing so you can access the blower. The fuse I think mounts near the heating element. I an sure someone has a repair manual in this forum and post it fer ye. This dryer is fairly easy to repair. You will ahve to pardon my typing I burned my hand severely cooking some french frys for my elderly mother.
Check your incoming power supply where the cord hooks to the terminal in the back of the dryer.The "explosion" may have been a supply wire burned loose and shorted against the frame.
Your connections look loose on the incoming supply wire. Loose supply connections over time will get HOT and will burn in two. When the HOT connection shorts on the frame you get the explosion and tripped breaker.Splice your wires, make sure all connections are good and tight. You may get lucky with no control damage.This might help.http://www.servicematters.com/maytag_library/docs/16023110.pdf

Mets purchase right to send Dice-K to Minors
VIERA, Fla. -- The price of flexibility is $100,000.
That's what the Mets paid veteran right-hander Daisuke Matsuzaka on Tuesday to satisfy a contractual clause, thereby preserving their right to send him to the Minors.View Full Game Coverage
VIERA, Fla. -- The price of flexibility is $100,000.
That's what the Mets paid veteran right-hander Daisuke Matsuzaka on Tuesday to satisfy a contractual clause, thereby preserving their right to send him to the Minors.View Full Game Coverage
Officially, that means the fifth-starter competition between Matsuzaka and Jenrry Mejia is still in flux, with each scheduled to start once this weekend in Montreal. Unofficially, it creates a scenario in which both could appear early in April for the Mets.
"The competition is still open," general manager Sandy Alderson said. "It doesn't mean the competition is going to be determined exclusively on those two [Montreal] outings."
From a business standpoint, it would have made sense for the Mets to make Matsuzaka their fifth starter regardless of his spring performance. Mejia will be up against an innings limit this summer, so starting him at Triple-A Las Vegas would allow the team to ease him into the season with shorter, more spaced-out outings. It would also prevent him from becoming a higher-salaried Super 2 player next winter.
But optioning Mejia to the Minors would also prevent the Mets from being able to recall him for 10 days, eliminating their hedge in the event that the soreness in Jon Niese's left elbow lingers. The Mets tentatively have Niese scheduled for an April 6 return from the disabled list, but they cannot be sure he will make that start until he passes a series of tests over the next week.
One solution would be asking relievers Carlos Torres or John Lannan to make an emergency start on April 6 if necessary, but the $100,000 purchase on Tuesday opened another option that does not involve shuffling the bullpen.
By stashing Matsuzaka in the Minors, the Mets can theoretically start Mejia on April 4, then -- assuming Niese is healthy -- option him to Triple-A Las Vegas and add Matsuzaka to the rotation if they desire. Or, if Niese's injury lingers, they can replace him with Matsuzaka on April 6 and proceed indefinitely with both Mejia and Matsuzaka in the rotation.
Matsuzaka, who is on a non-guaranteed Minor League deal, can demand his release if he is not on the big league roster by May 30. He and Mejia are both pitching well this spring, posting ERAs of 3.86 and 2.89, respectively.

At least for tonight, our Vanek was better than their Tavares. But that wasn't the story.
Plenty of bally-hoo was being made throughout the game about the ice time of Mikhail Grigorenko (upon the Twitter). With scantly more than a minute of ice time heading into the 3rd, Lindy finally decided to use him in the clutch – the rookie would finish with 7:13 of ice time.

May 29, 2013 - OTTAWA - RBC wore two hats during the first-ever Riverboat Gala. We were not only a sponsor of this fundraising event for Ottawa Riverkeeper, but took the opportunity to present the watershed protection organization with its 2013 RBC Blue Water Project leadership grant of $100,000 at the event as well.
The gala, held in support of Ottawa Riverkeeper, welcomed a number of well-known Canadians, including Mark and Diane Carney, TV journalist Evan Solomon and a handful of Juno nominated musicians.
RBC regional president Jeff Boyd was on hand to announce the grant. The sold-out gala raised a total of $150,000 for Ottawa Riverkeeper. Guests were treated to a sunset sail on the Ottawa River complete with live music from Sam Roberts and Kathleen Edwards and local food prepared by top Ottawa chefs. The event was one of Mark Carney's last as governor of the Bank of Canada.
Ottawa Riverkeeper was one of 123 organizations worldwide to receive grants totalling $2.3 million from the RBC Blue Water Project in June, 2013. Since 2007, RBC has pledged over $38 million to more than 650 charitable organizations worldwide that protect water, with an additional $7.8 million pledged to universities for water programs.

Cisco Moving Confidently Along its Any Device Journey
Today, more than ever, an increasing number of Cisco employees and its extended workforce are connecting to Cisco's corporate network using their devices of choice. The speed by which these devices are joining the network is not only staggering, but also significantly impacting the IT and security organizations' approach to protecting the information assets and the services we deliver. The Apple iPad, as a prime example, actually appeared on the Cisco network the day before the technology was released to the general public, showing that IT and security professionals need to be aware, prepared, and nimble enough to keep pace with the speed of today's innovation and change.
As work-life integration continues to be a differentiator for businesses large and small, we see the "consumerization of IT"—the technologies we use in our personal lives blending into our work environment—not only increasing exponentially, but also impacting IT and security on many new levels. With such a tech-savvy workforce, Cisco IT and security professionals recognize the "Any Device" trend—also known as "Bring-Your-Own-Device (BYOD)"—as inevitable. This trend offers a number of tangible business benefits, such as productivity improvements, faster time-to-capabilities, and cost reduction that go well beyond employee satisfaction. Yet there are key considerations that we must also identify to ensure that we maximize these benefits while managing associated risk.
Cisco is moving confidently along the journey toward an "Any Service, Any Device, Anywhere" environment, with many network, technology, and security components already in place. We invite you to learn more about Cisco's journey described in the white paper, The Journey to Any Device: Planning a Productive and Competitive Future, authored by Cisco IT and Information Security practitioners.
Have you set off on your own Any Device journey, and if so, what roadblocks have you faced, and do you have any leading practices to share?
In an effort to keep conversations fresh, Cisco Blogs closes comments after 60 days. Please visit the Cisco Blogs hub page for the latest content.

Amazon has released a new advertisement that takes a shot at the price of Apple's iPad, emphasizing the lower cost of the Kindle e-reader and Android-based Kindle Fire tablet computer.
In the ad, seen below, a woman tells a man that her Kindle reader, which works well in sunlight, along with her kids' two Kindle Fire tablets, which offer access to games, videos and more, cost less combined than his iPad.
Apple backers have fought back on the Web, pointing out that the Amazon devices aren't as good as the iPad and that Amazon is basically saying you need two devices to do what one iPad can do. What's more, the Kindle Fire tablets are 8GB devices (plus free cloud storage for Amazon content), whereas the $500 iPad 2 has 16GB of storage.
The ad campaign comes on the tail of Samsung's latest shot at Apple during its Super Bowl ad, which tweaked Apple fanboys and fangirls over their waiting in long lines outside Apple Stores for the next iPhone.
The Kindle Fire, which sells for about $200, is the current king of Android tablets, though still has a long way to go to catch the iPad in terms of sales. Recent market research reports show the iPad accounted for more than half of all tablet shipments in the fourth quarter of 2011, and that 6 million Kindle Fires sold during this past holiday season vs. more than 15 million iPads.

The most common burns that happen to kids are liquid burns, like scalding by hot water or other hot liquids.
Burns can range from mild to severe. Not all burns require emergency medical care — some minor burns can be treated at home.
If a child has a burn that is large, a burn that's caused by electricity (as from a live wire) or a chemical (like a household cleaner), or a burn from fire:
