Creating a QFN footprint - the center pad
April 17, 2013 10:30 am | by Screaming Circuits | CommentsI've written bits and pieces about creating footprints in Eagle and a lot about what the QFN solder paste layer should look like, so maybe it's time to connect the two dots. I'm using Eagle CAD here, so your process will likely be different unless you're using Eagle, but the concept should be the same.
DoD cancels "participation trophy" for drone pilots
April 16, 2013 4:03 pm | by Jason Lomberg, Technical Editor | CommentsThe DoD has finally backed down. And I applaud their decision. Following months of negative feedback, the DoD has officially scuttled the Distinguished Warfare Medal. The DWM — intended for drone operators — would've ranked ahead of the Bronze Star and Purple Heart (two combat decorations) in the order of precedence.
Why the government should ban cellphones while driving
April 16, 2013 10:28 am | by Kasey Panetta, Managing Editor | CommentsThis term "nanny state" is an interesting one. It's a term people throw out when they feel the government is infringing on their right to do something stupid. Frankly, if people could be trusted to police themselves, we wouldn't have any laws at all.
Low-cost IQ modulation with true-form waveform generators

Silicon Valley has nothing on manufacturing

The nanny state should loosen its grip on cell phones
April 11, 2013 3:24 pm | by Jason Lomberg, Technical Editor | CommentsWe've written a lot on ECN about automotive safety and its intersection with cutting-edge technology.

Star Wars on the high seas: Navy plans to deploy shipboard laser by 2014
April 9, 2013 3:35 pm | by Jason Lomberg, Technical Editor | CommentsSome bad news for Sci-Fi fans: The Navy's new shipboard laser system, Laser Weapon System (LaWS), won't shoot spiffy beams of light of the sort used to kill stormtroopers, Cylons, and Klingons. But it will fire a focused infrared laser that can down drones, disable small boats, and — in the future — engage missiles and enemy jets.

The complex will host the MLB Legends for Youth Camp on Friday from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. featuring several former Major-Leaguers.
The clinic, which is now full as it was limited to the first 200 registrants, will incorporate several stations led by the former pros where they will teach players fundamentals of the game and hopefully give the kids a basis to continue improving in their baseball skills and knowledge.
"The biggest thing for us is we want to get the point across to these kids that you need to simplify it," said Bob Galasso, a former pitcher for the Seattle Mariners who will be one of the guest instructors at the clinic. "When you start to get more technical in teaching and learning baseball is when things start to get too difficult. We just tell the kids to try to pick up one thing at each station.
"We're going to try to cover everything from hitting to defense to pitching and more. We also just want to give the kids an appetite for more baseball so maybe they'll stick with it in the next few years rather than going to another sport."
The MLB Legends for Youth is a charitable program running over 40 events a year nationwide with the mission of promoting the game of baseball to America's youth using positive sports images and personalities.
Several other former MLB players will join Galasso, the most recognizable name being John Rocker, the former closer for the Atlanta Braves. Other former pros Doug Simmons, Robert Long, Tom Carroll and Greg 'Boomer' Wells are also confirmed for the clinic, with possibly more to come.
"It's good to see the guys and kind of renew friendships that we've made doing these types of clinics," said Galasso, who now resides in Rockmart.
"The kids might be a little intimidated at first, learning from former Major Leaguers, but we just want them to know they we are putting our heart into this to try to make them better."
After the clinic, there will be a time set up for the youth to go around and get the players autographs if they want. There will also be autographed items such as balls, bats, etc. for sale during the clinic and the Bob Galasso Classic, the baseball tournament that will kick off on Friday night and run through Sunday.
Team spots are still open for the tournament, which features four separate age divisions (6-8, 9-10, 11-12, 13-14).
If interested in entering a team or getting more information about the tournament, coaches should contact Steven Cornette at 678-986-7069, Barry Walraven at 706-263-0411 or Diane Jones at 706-602-4453 or 706-4096.
All proceeds from the clinic and the tournament will benefit the MLB Legends for Youth and the Gordon County Christian Baseball Ministries.
Sponsors for the clinic and tournament include Gordon Hospital, Zaxby's, Sherman Hall Trucking, Roland Hayes Farms and Thomas Designs.

DIY | Sewing 101: 3 basic stitches (LIN Media/Twinkle VanWinkle)
Do you remember that whole line of "Over the Hill" birthday …
Updated: Wednesday, 26 Sep 2012, 3:43 PM EDT
Published : Thursday, 13 Sep 2012, 11:32 AM EDT
Even if you are lucky enough to leave the house with your emergency sewing kit, it's good to know a few simple stitches, or else you could end up ruining a hem or worse.
It does take a bit of practice, but everyone should be able to hem his or her own pants or repair a simple loose thread on a shirt.
To begin, make sure you have the right color thread, a good darning needle and a few straight pins.
How-To: Make an easy, on-the-go sewing kit.
3 stitches to know:
1. Running Stitch
This is the most basic stitch next to a basting stitch, and the one that comes to mind for most when thinking of hand-sewing. You are basically just pushing the needle and thread in and out of the fabric in a straight line.
The purpose of this stitch is to aid in keeping two pieces of fabric together. It can be used as a temporary hemstitch, but make sure you have the same shade of thread as your garment.
2. Back stitch
This is a stronger version of the running stitch, and a little more work-intensive. The big difference between this and the running stitch is that you'll turn around and go backwards for one stitch.
The visual is probably more helpful than the explanation, but it's basically a "back-tracking" type of stitch to give a seam a much stronger bind. Once you've made several stitches, you will see the threads overlap on the underside of the fabric.
3. Hem Stitch
This stitch that helps you create an unnoticeable stitch for hemming garments. Press the needle through your two layers and back at a slant. Repeat this same stitch until you reach the end of what you are hemming.
Pro-Tip: You might be wondering, "What do I do when I get to the end to finish off the stitch?" Whatever type of stitch you are using, you'll need to secure it at the end to keep your sewing from becoming loose and coming undone.
Take a little backstitch and make a loop over the needle. Pull the thread through the loop you've created to make a knot next to the fabric. Repeat the process to make the stitch more secure.

Scotland Yard Says It Will Reopen New Investigation into the Disappearance of Missing Madeleine McCann
After a two year of review, Scotland Yard says it will reopen a new investigation into the disappearance of Madeleine McCann. Madeleine McCann went missing on May 3, 2007 while on vacation with her family in Praia da Luz, Portugal. As reported by Radar Online, Scotland Yard had closed the case back in 2008. But after tireless pressure from the McCann family and their supporters, Birtish Prime Minister David Cameron asked the Metropolitan Police to launch a probe. Is it possible that Maddy McCain could still be alive? Is it possible after all this time and so many initial mistakes in this case by Portuguese authorities that a resolution can come to this missing person's case?
Missing Maddy McCain
After a two-year review, Scotland Yard says it will reopen and fully fund a new investigation into the disappearance of Madeleine McCann, the British girl who vanished from her family's vacation apartment in Praia da Luz, Portugal, in 2007.
That review comes after the intervention of British Prime Minister David Cameron, whose spokeswoman on Monday reiterated renewed support for the once-widely reported case, according to Britain's Sky News.
"The Home Office remains committed to supporting the search for Madeleine McCann," says the rep.
Losing the Youth Vote … Obama's Job Approval Falls 17 Points With those Age18 to 29 … Scandals, Scandals, Scandals
It finally appears that Barack Obama has lost that loving feeling of the youth vote.
Yesterday we reported that Barack Obama's job approval in a recent CNN poll fell to 45%. However, further looking into the numbers revealed an even more glaring loss of support. Obama's approval rating fell 17 points to 48% with those who are age 18 to 29. So what's the reason for the drastic drop with the youth? Could it be that they finally realize that they will be paying a disproportionate share for Obamacare? Could it be that they realize they have a mountain of college debt and no job? Probably not as they have had a time to digest these fiascos under Obama. Most likely it is because they realize that Barack Obama was not the one they had been waiting for and was no different that any other lying president. The scandals are starting to even affect the young. The IRS scandal and NSA are probably highest on the list of the multiple scandals. Obama stated as a candidate he would stop wire tapping and spying on legal Americans (VIDEO); however, the youth have recently learned a much different story. Today's youth are more wired in to the internet, Facebook and social media than any other age group. Now they realize that the president who said they would not be spied on is doing the unthinkable, spying on them. It's time for today's youth to grow up and understand, the "One" they had been waiting for, was not. It's always difficult for the idealistic young to realize that their hero is nothing more than Richard Nixon.
Have all the scandals become too much even for today's youth? They appear to have lost trust in Obama, I guess they no longer believe, in Obama, they trust.
Even more surprising: The overall decline in his approval rating was partially fueled by a plunge in support from younger Americans, a huge base of Obama's support.
Last month, nearly two-thirds of those in the 18-29 age group gave the president a thumbs up. His approval rating among that bracket fell 17 points in Monday's poll and now stands at 48%.
"One explanation may be that younger Americans are more likely to feel they are personally affected by the surveillance programs," said CNN Polling Director Keating Holland. "More than half of all senior citizens, for example, think that the government has not collected their personal information, and since older Americans are less likely to use the Internet, they may be right. Among younger Americans, two-thirds believe that the federal government has gathered their personal data."
More Analysis from CNN: Obama overseas, poll numbers under water
This administration has gotten pretty good at riding the ebbs and flows of poll numbers," said chief national correspondent for The New York Times Magazine Mark Leibovich. "In the second term it's easier to sort of, not shrug it off, but certainly to ride it out a little bit."
"The president's trend line on his popularity, and the level of trust that Americans have for him, is going down, right as many Americans feel the economy is starting to recover, and their perception's about the economy's starting to go up," said CNN contributor and former senior adviser to Mitt Romney Kevin Madden.
The Week has 3 reasons why Obama, White House an Dems should be concerned.
- Obama's base is wavering
- The trust problem could grow
- GOP attacks are starting to stick

Disgusting … Rapper Lil' Wayne Stomps US Flag in Latest Music Video, "God Bless Amerika"
Isn't it amazing that the very people who have made quite a nice living off the freedoms, liberties and opportunities afforded to them by living in the United States are they very ones who claim to hate it?
In Lil' Wayne's latest video titled "God Bless Amerika," the rapper stomps all over an American flag. How special. You mean even with Barack Obama as president, Lil' Wayne still has issues. Some people are just never satisfied. This is just another reason why I give celebrities zero status in my life. Obviously, it is not illegal what the rapper did as stepping on the Stars and Stripes is protected under free speech, however, that does not make it any less disrespectful. Yup, this country is just so bad Lil' Wayne, because you have done so bad for yourself as a no talent fool. Maybe, just maybe you might want to write a song like this in a country that is ruled by Sharia law? Wonder what the result would be?
It is simply shameful that brave Americans have lost their lives defending the United States of America and this is how some exploit those brave acts of our American heroes. Simply disgusting. Maybe Lil' Wayne would actually do something beneficial with his life and visit a military hospital and thank those who have afforded him a living and the right to act like a jerk?

CNN Poll: Barack Obama Approval Rating Falls to 45% Amid Continuous Scandals
Don't look now but Nixon's Obama's approval ratings are tanking amid scandals.
According to a recent CNN poll. President Barack Obama's approval rating has sunk to 45% while 54% disapprove of his handling of his job. It is his lowest rating in a year and a half. So why the free-fall? Can you say scandals and the fact that the American people are being to not only lose trust in government, but specifically lose trust in Obama. The scandals are starting to catch up with Obama and how could they not? With Benghazi, the IRS, AP, James Rosen, NSA, the State Department and lest we forget Fast and Furious, it is simply amazing his approval rating is at 45%. Obama also go low marks on handling the economy and the federal budget. Also, as reported at the Politico, for the first time in his presidency, the poll also found less than half of respondents believed Obama was honest. In all, the poll showed Obama to be a complete failure.
Full poll can be read HERE (pdf).
The president's approval rating stands at 45%, down from 53% in mid-May. And 54% say they disapprove of how Obama's handling his job, up nine points from last month. It's the first time in CNN polling since November 2011 that a majority of Americans have had a negative view of the president.
"The drop in Obama's support is fueled by a dramatic 17-point decline over the past month among people under 30, who, along with black Americans, had been the most loyal part of the Obama coalition," says CNN Polling Director Keating Holland.
The president also dropped 10 points among independent voters, from 47% last month to 37% now, with Obama's disapproval among independents jumping 12 points to 61%.
Snapshot of poll from Business Insiders:
•General job approval is down from 53% in May to 45% now.
•Approval on the economy is down 2 points, to 42%.
•On foreign affairs, Obama has fallen 5 points to 44%.
•On illegal immigration, Obama's disapproval is up to 56%.
•49% of respondents say Obama is honest/trustworthy, a big drop from 58% in the last reading.
•Among those aged under 30, Obama has seen a 17% (!) drop in approval.
More from The Politico, Obama losing support from Independents and the youth vote.
The drop in support for Obama was especially steep among young voters and independents. With voters ages 18 to 29, Obama's approval numbers dropped 17 points, according to CNN's polling director. Among voters ages 18-34, 48 percent approved of the job Obama is doing and 50 percent disapproved.
Independents' approval of the president dropped 10 points, to 37 percent, and disapproval was up 12 points, to 61 percent.
Senior Washington IRS Official Holly Paz Admits to Scrutinizing Tea Party Applications
IRS-GATE … Drip, drip, drip.
Holly Paz, an IRS senior supervisor in Washington, DC admitted to targeting Tea Party groups seeking tax-exempt status. She stated she was personally involved in scrutinizing up to 30 Tea Party applications. Now according to reports, she is gone, but gone where? Fired, transferred, on administrative leave with pay? One thing is for certain, it's no longer about rogue agents in the Cincinnati office, the IRS scandal that targeted conservative groups and Tea Party organizations now leads to Washington, DC.
From FOX News:
A Washington-based IRS supervisor acknowledged she was personally involved in reviewing Tea Party applications for tax-exempt status as far back as 2010, Fox News confirms — a detail that further challenges the agency's initial claim that the practice of singling out those groups was limited to a handful of employees in Ohio.
Congressional sources confirmed to Fox News that Holly Paz, who until recently was a top deputy in the division that handles applications for tax-exempt status, told congressional investigators she reviewed 20 to 30 applications. Some requests languished for more than a year without action.
The account undercuts the narrative that senior officials only learned of the practice after it had already started in the Cincinnati office.
Details of Paz's role were first reported by The Associated Press. Still, Paz provided no evidence that senior IRS officials ordered agents to target conservative groups or that anyone in the Obama administration outside the IRS was involved.
Instead, Paz described an agency in which IRS supervisors in Washington worked closely with agents in the field but didn't fully understand what those agents were doing. Paz said agents in Cincinnati openly talked about handling "tea party" cases, but she thought the term was merely shorthand for all applications from groups that were politically active — conservative and liberal.
The Gateway Pundit provides an important little tidbit of information, Holly Paz was a Barack Obama donor.

14 Year Old Student Jared Marcum May Face Year in Jail For Refusing to Remove NRA Shirt in School
Good grief, we can't seem ta arrest any one at the IRS for illegally targeting conservative organizations or any one at the Justice department for AP or James Rosen-gate, but the some how we are able to jail a 14 year old for freedom of speech.
We had previously reported that 8th grader Jared Marcum, who attended the Logan Middle School in West Virginia had been arrested, suspended and faced charges for wearing an NRA T-shirt with the image of a firearm and the words "Protect Your Right" printed on it to school. School officials actually called the police on this kid for wearing a shirt to school and expressing his "freedom of speech". This is still America, right? But now we learn that the case has not been dropped and that Jared Marcum could face a year in jail. HUH? As stated at Guns Saves Lives, how on Earth have these charges not yet been dropped? This entire incident was caused by an over-reaction by school officials and now it has gotten so far out of control that it could lead to an American citizen expressing their Constitutional rights.
WTRF 7 News Sports Weather – Wheeling Steubenville
According to a report by WTRF the prosecuting attorney is moving forward with that charge and a judge is allowing the case to move forward. Fourteen year old Jared Marcum could face up to a $500 fine and up to a year in jail (we'll seriously hope that isn't a real possibility) if found guilty.
According to the report, the arresting officer alleges that when Jared refused to stop talking he hindered the officers ability to do his job and that is where the obstruction arrest came from. I'm guessing a 14 year old kid who felt intimidated was trying to explain himself, but let's throw him in jail for good measure.
According to the report, both the prosecuting attorney and police refused to comment or answer any questions from reporters regarding the case.
When did this country get so screwed up? Does anyone think he would be facing the same predicament if his shirt was "anti-gun" or maybe if it was pro-Muslim" or pro "illegal immigration". Weasel Zippers says, STOP THE INSANITY!!! When will some one in authority use an ounce of common sense and just drop the charges?

True, jones may have a slightly better record but in all his fights he's had the clear size advantage. His wrestling is impeccable which explains why he hasn't spent time on his back. But I still believe his striking is nowhere near the level of Silva's and it would show. Silva has ko'd plenty of opponents with just a punch whereas jones hasn't shown he has that capability... yet. This leads me to believe that jones wouldn't be able to standup for long with Anderson and would resort to his wrestling/jj/gnp strategy. Like I said, he'll get owned on his feet but on the ground is a different story. But this is all speculation as this fight isn't close or even in the works. So who knows? Just my take.

Hello Raw Food Talkers,
Watching 12 Steps to Raw Food by Victoria Boutenko last month convinced me that going raw was the right path for my family, and gave me great advice on how to make it happen. In June I went raw for one month before breaking the diet. I've been 100% raw now on my second try since October 30th and I'm not going back. My girlfriend and 22 month old son joined me in on November 1st.
One of the biggest challenges I've had is getting my son the nutrition he needs as he does not breast feed. I've found that he will drink lots of juices, as long as there is apple in it. Apple kale, apple fig, apple cucumber, apple carrot, so far the only one I couldn't get him to drink was a beet juice. He also consumes a large amount of bananas, enjoys raw crackers, and even eats some vegetables and fruits without processing.
My girlfriend had a lot of resistance to the diet as well, at first. Once she tried raw lasagna, she said "I can do this," and has been content with the change ever since.
Victoria Boutenko and David Wolfe have been very inspirational to me. 12 Steps to Raw Food, Foodmatters, and Dying to Have Known are three movies that have been fundamental reinforcement for me during this month. I just went through my first raw Thanksgiving, and I know I will make it through Christmas.
Look forward to sharing with you all. Happy Thanksgiving.

I always get frustrated when I hear someone talking about sweep arpeggios. Though there are plenty of licks and examples out there, no one has ever really broken down the mechanics of the technique. As a result, guitarists have had to figure them out by trial and error.
Whether you began on an electric or an acoustic guitar, there's no doubt the latter will eventually find its way into your hands at some point. The nature of the acoustic guitar's efficiency (no amp!) makes it a commonality among players, collectors and dorm-room guys looking to impress girls. Even the most devout shredder will be tempted to noodle on a dreadnought — particularly in front of the aforementioned girls.
A rare Vox guitar played by both John Lennon and George Harrison will be on display throughout this week at the Hard Rock Cafe New York. The guitar will be auctioned off on Saturday, May 18, where it is estimated to bring $200,000 to $300,000.
On May 14, 1988, Led Zeppelin — Jimmy Page, Robert Plant, John Paul Jones and Jason Bonham (the Celebration Day lineup) — reunited for Atlantic Records' massive 40th anniversary party at New York City's Madison Square Garden.
It's spring, a time when scores of bands are releasing new albums, debuting singles and posting videos — and Finland's Children of Bodom are no exception.
Queens of the Stone Age have posted another song from their new album, ... Like Clockwork, and you can check out the song — "Keep Your Eyes Peeled" — below.
Why ain't six strings enough? This was the question we posed to one of guitar's all-time greats in our September 2012 cover story.
Now in paperback, Randy Poe's Skydog: The Duane Allman Story (Backbeat Books) is revised and expanded, with a new afterword by the author, plus a foreword by Billy Gibbons of ZZ Top. It's the definitive biography of Duane Allman, one of the most revered guitarists of his generation.
Walk Through Exits Only, the first solo album by Philip H. Anselmo & The Illegals, will be released July 16.

Girls basketball: Cox, Deary net baskets in final seconds for Flower Mound win
By Justin Thomas, email@example.com
FLOWER MOUND � The early advantage in District 5-5A shifted in Flower Mound�s advantage Tuesday as the Lady Jaguars notched a 50-46 victory on the road over Marcus.
The Lady Jaguars and Lady Marauders entered the contest as the lone unbeatens remaining in district. With the win, Flower Mound (4-0) moved into sole possession of first ahead of Marcus (3-1).
The Lady Jaguars maintained a small advantage for a majority of the contest, but found themselves trailing, 46-44, with 44 seconds remaining.
Following another Marcus miss, Cox grabbed the board and hit Deary down court, who found Marin Mills for the sealing bucket.
�I told the girls that 1:11 is a long time,� said Sherika Nelson, Flower Mound head coach. �We�ve believed the whole game and don�t stop believing this last minute and something good will happen.
�This was a good win for our program and I think the adversity we�ve overcome this year helped us in that situation. We�ve had four games that came down to the wire and we won two and lost two. So I think it proved for us to play those games and we learned from it.�
Deary finished with 16 points, five rebounds, six assists and five steals.
Jenna Davis and Morgan Easley paced the Lady Marauders with 12 points apiece, while Sierra Bone provided a spark off the bench and finished with nine points.
�You have to give Flower Mound tons of credit,� said Fred Jones, Marcus head coach. �In the last 35 seconds, it just comes down to one shot. We make it, we in. They make it, they win. But Lauren Cox had an incredible game and she made a tough shot. She had three or four girls hanging on her.�
Late in the fourth, Easley hit a 3-pointer from the top of the key to give Marcus a 45-44 advantage and later split a pair of free throws to push the margin to 46-44. She also had seven rebounds and a pair of steals.
�Morgan is our clutch player,� Jones said. �The Cedar Hill game � I can name numerous games where she came through with the game on the line. She made a huge three. It was her first game back from an injury and getting her back in the flow was big for us.�
While Easley was effective in the closing minutes, it was Cox who got the Lady Jaguars out to a fast start. Flower Mound led, 16-10, midway through the second quarter with the freshman recording 10 of the 16 points.
�They came in with lots of energy, ready to play and took it to us right from the beginning,� Jones said. �[Cox] is unconventional because she is so tall but can play away from the basket. She causes a lot of mismatches.�
While Cox started well, she got into foul trouble in the third and had to sit. However, the Lady Jaguars maintained their three-point advantage.
Cox returned in the fourth and paired with Deary (11 fourth quarter points) to lead the squad down the stretch.
�Ashley and Lauren have that knack that when the game is on the line, they�re going to be the ones that have the ball and are making plays,� Nelson said.
The Lady Jaguars had a chance to complete a perfect first half of district play Friday with a win over Denton Ryan.
�[Tuesday] was a big win in the district, but we have six more games to go,� Nelson said. �We�re going to enjoy this but we�re looking at Friday now. If we want to be district champs, we have to keep going one game at a time.�
Marcus looks to bounce back Friday against Hebron.
�Our girls see the long haul and know the ultimate goal,� Jones said. �We talk about every day being state champs and that it�s a learning process and a journey. We know that tonight nobody won a playoff game or won a state title. But we also know we have to learn from this loss and get better from it.�

Chillul Tefila Bifarhesia, as well as halachicly challenged verbiage and dress, are external manifestations of a critical lack of personal yiras shomayim which has lethal consequences.

Nearly half a million of them fought in Red Army uniforms, under communist slogans but with a personal vengeance that was solely the result of Jewish experience. More than the "Greatest Generation," they were the living superheroes hidden in plain sight.
It's all over.
The orchestra is still, the lights are dimmed. Your simcha outfits hang in your closet, silent witnesses to a time you will treasure in your mind and heart forever.
Scene One:
After noticing that you can't log into your computer, your pulse quickens as you are called into your supervisor's office. S/he has some bad news. You are being laid off. You have 15 minutes to clean out your desk and surrender your cell phone before security escorts you out of the building. Job termination, especially in the corporate world, can be heartless.
I have always had a problem with the Omer. Doing the mitzvah of counting the Omer was of course pretty easy. Remembering to start the second evening of Passover and remembering to stop the day before Shavous took a little concentration but somehow I always managed. No, for me the nagging problem was always why was I doing this in the first place, other than the fact it was a biblical (according to the Rambam) commandment.
With the semi-mourning period of Sefira behind us, and the festival of Shavuot as well (as evidenced by the tightness of our clothing due to over-indulging in irresistible versions of cheesecake that is an integral component of celebrating our receipt of the Torah), our community can look forward to participating in joyous engagement parties and weddings.
Dear Dr. Yael:
Do you really believe that the Internet is the reason why the divorce rate is so high among young couples? This may be so in some cases, but what about the fact that many singles are pressured to get married at a young age despite not having any idea what they are looking for in a mate? And add to that the fact that many are pressured to make a decision about marriage after dating for a very short period of time.
From the moment they stand under the chuppah, newlyweds have two years to enjoy the special bliss that new love brings. This new finding, reported by the New York Times, is based on a study undertaken by American and European researchers. 1,761 people who got married and stayed married over 15 years were followed. The research shows that after two years the couples moved into a more companionable state in their relationships.
Shel Silverstein's 1974 poem "Where The Sidewalk Ends" is intended to paint a magical picture of a world of peace and serenity far away from the "black and dark streets." At the time, perhaps the end of the sidewalk was a place that was "measured and slow." Today, however, for many parents, where the sidewalk ends can feel like a scary place.

Florida is famous for sparkling water. We have the beautiful Atlantic Ocean and Gulf of Mexico surrounding our coast. We have bays, lakes, canals and, of course, an incredible abundance of swimming pools in homes, resorts, apartment complexes and city parks.
The buzz is back as Camp Gan Israel Florida Overnight gears up for another fantastic summer, CGI Florida style. What makes CGI Florida so different from all the other overnight camps? It's all in the details.
Leah Katz, a TeenZone camper at Oorah's TheZone summer camp and an 11th grader at Midwood High School, read her winning essay about how TheZone changed her views on Judaism at the Jewish Heritage Awards Ceremony held at Brooklyn District Attorney Charles Hynes's office in April. The purpose of the Jewish Heritage Essay Contest is to acquaint public school students with Jewish history and customs and to help foster a deeper understanding of Jewish culture. The contest is open to students of all ethnic and religious backgrounds. Leah's essay is reproduced in full below.
Moshe Sharett, the head of the Jewish Agency's Political Department, visited Egypt in 1945. In Cairo he met a most remarkable young woman, a beautiful journalist who was the darling of Egyptian high society – from high-ranking military brass, to culture icons and Muslim sheikhs, to the court of King Faruk.
The two proceeded to talk about everyday things and surprisingly her mother-in-law did not find anything else to criticize. This occurred a few more times, with my client changing the topic every time by complimenting her mother-in-law or mentioning something positive about her.
One of the subjects I was taught as a young child in school was Tefillah. Since we spoke only Ivrit during our Limudei Kodesh and secular Hebrew studies – literature, creative writing and Jewish history – we pretty much understood the words we were davening.
Shortly before Pesach, I received a rather agitated call from a long time reader of The Jewish Press who pleaded with me to write a column regarding what she insisted was the unwarranted high cost of Pesach food – in particular shmurah matzah – and how hard it was for young families to pay what she felt were over-inflated prices in order to keep strictly kosher.
The price of deliberate obliviousness is very high – emotionally, physically, socially, and financially.
How is it possible that a person of seemingly normal intelligence (nowhere does it say he is simple) not have the ability to ask a question – to not react and enquire as to the why of the hustle and bustle around him?
It was one of those cold, rain-soaked evenings – the kind that make you look forward to a hot drink, a good book and a soft couch to curl up on. With those happy thoughts in mind, I proceeded to cross to the other side of the street.
The other day I was shopping at a large supermarket and happened to go down the frozen foods aisle, past the endless freezers containing every imaginable flavor, shape and size of ice cream. I rarely buy. Rather I am like a tourist in a museum – gawking at wondrous objects that I know I can't take home with me.
He stood his ground despite the intense pressure to do what everyone else was doing. His integrity was more important to him than "fitting in."
There is a wise Yiddish saying that translates into this observation: "Yichus (illustrious ancestors) is like potatoes – they are both under the ground."

Background of 6xHistidine Epitope Tag antibody
In the last couple of years many peptide sequences/epitopes for the purification of recombinant proteins have been established. These so-called "tags" can be used e.g. to determine the cellular localization or to quantify proteins. The polyhistidine "tag" (His-tag) is the most used affinity epitope for the purification of recombinant proteins [1]. Proteins with a polyhistidine tag (e.g. 6xHis or 8xHis) can be purified in one step using a metal-chelate column (e.g. Ni2+, Zn2+, Cu2+ or Co2+) and imidazole as eluent. This method now is a very attractive system for the purification of larger amounts proteins for structural and functional studies. So far His-tagged proteins were successfully purified from different expression systems like E. coli, yeast, insect cells and plant cells [1,2]. An important requirement beside the efficient and robust purification method is the availability of a fast detection system for checking the purification steps of these His-tagged proteins if no specific antibody is available.

TUBE UNION RMT today slammed plans set out by London Tories to allow commercial sponsorship of tube stations as 'a blueprint to destroy London's transport heritage in the name of private profit.'
TUBE UNION RMT confirmed today that electricians and engineers working for contractors Mitie on the TFL contract are to take strike action and action short of a strike in a dispute over redundancies and unilateral changes to working conditions.
TUBE UNION RMT warned today London Assembly members risk unleashing the biggest wave of industrial action on London Underground in 30 years after City Hall politicians lined up this morning to attack basic tube workers' rights including pensions and passes.
TUBE UNION RMT confirmed today that driver members at a range of depots serving the Hammersmith and City, Metropolitan and Circle Lines will be taking industrial action in a dispute arising from the introduction of the new S Stock fleet.
