Anyone tried this yet?
It unfortunately still has the issues common to all Debian-based distros (i.e. it's a pain to compile stuff on it). The lack of Synaptic in the default install only makes this more annoying, since the Software Center can't install -dev packages.
Still... The good:
- Unity 2D is included by default now. It's both faster and (IMO) prettier than the 3D version. I still have some conceptual problems with it, mind; it looks like it would play badly with a dual-screen setup, and I don't really see the point of having the bar on top. (Why not leave application menu bars alone, and integrate the system tray into the sidebar?) That said, it strikes me as a sane middle ground between Gnome 3/Unity 3D glitz overload and Gnome 3's crippled fallback mode.
- They fixed the Software Center! It no longer bogs my laptop down in endless CPU and I/O hoggery.
The bad:
- Unity's launcher window is better than it was, but it still needs too much clicking, and looks confusing for novices. IMO a user should only have to click once to show all installed applications, with further clicks narrowing the selection; that would be friendlier and more intuitive.
- Unity 3D is still very slow, and is still the default desktop. Beats me why they don't ditch this turkey.
And, of course, the ugly:
- The update-fest is already starting. Last night CUPS had to be updated, and there are more coming down the line...
- Parts of AppArmor's userspace utilities are missing from the default install, so I can't enable Firefox's AppArmor profile.
Overall, from what I've seen in Ubuntu's past, I consider this a pretty good release. Not enough to make me switch to Ubuntu as my main OS, but good enough to make me a little bit more optimistic about Linux's future on the desktop.

Women who have breast cancer remaining after preoperative chemotherapy and breast cancer surgery have a higher risk of the disease returning in the future. There is no chemotherapy that has been shown to reduce the risk of recurrence in these women.
In this study, researchers will evaluate the safety and effectiveness of giving bevacizumab and metronomic chemotherapy to women who had preoperative chemotherapy and had residual breast cancer removed with surgery. With metronomic chemotherapy, repetitive, low doses of chemotherapy drugs are given, which are designed to minimize side effects and target the endothelium, or tumor stroma, as opposed to targeting the tumor itself. The drugs used in this study will be cyclophosphamide and methotrexate given over a six-month period.
Investigators also want to determine if a diet and exercise program can lead to weight low, improved mood, decreased fatigue, and changes in blood markers associated with breast cancer. Patients will be randomly assigned to one of four groups:
To be eligible for this study, patients must meet several criteria, including but not limited to the following:
For more information about this study and to inquire about eligibility, please contact Dr. Maura Dickler at 646-888-4560.

So many times I can find the questions to ask for the comparison between Callaway X-22 and TaylorMade Burner 2.0 Irons. So in this pieace I would like to share it.
TaylorMade Burner 2.0 Irons are more forgiving due to the inverted cone technology that Taylormade has patented. They are also stronger lofted by 2°. The Callaway x-22's are an older iron and are now at a discounted rate. They were replaced by the Callaway RAZR X irons. The X22 irons are weaker by about 3° in long irons that starts to shorten out to 2° in the 7 and 8 irons. Also depending on what length the shafts are the taylormades are likely longer by anywhere to .5-.25 inches on any given club. As far as playability they will play near the same style not a whole big difference between the two.
The TaylorMade Burner 2.0 Irons are a little clicky off the face due to the inverted cone. But they are very easy to strike and launch the ball with ease. The Callaway are also quite forgiving. But they have a uni-flex shaft which is not always a best option for most people. But I would say try them both on a launch monitor and look the side spin you are creating and the dispersion. That should be able to tell you what club is best for your game.
I personally am very pleased with the callaway x-22 irons for sale. If you go this route my advice would be that you see a fitter you trust, so that you can get the right shaft for you. I was not a fan of the Uniflex shaft when I demoed them, and I ruled out the X22 early on. However, I went to a fitter, and ended up with the X22's with PX 5.5's. This shaft made a huge difference for me over the Uniflex.
It depends on the condition of both (grips, grooves, scratches). In general they are pretty much the same club. The TaylorMade Burner 2.0 Irons are black and probably would wear a little faster. Also the burners lofts are probably a little stronger, but im not 100% on that one. Its probably a pretty even trade but i wouldnt just trade my clubs unless i didnt like them. If you like the callaways better then you should do it, but if you think they are the same, dont bother with the switch.
Your are also suggested: If you are not really inclined to practice, hybrids will be much more friendly than most iron sets. If budget is no issue, try the PRGR EGG series, I have never felt a set of cheap golf clubs that felt so balanced, but they are pricey. If you are inclined to practice, then hold off the purchase until your swing gets more consistent. If you just wanna buy something cos it christmas and you want to give yourself a treat (which is a very valid reason!!!) then pick the one that looks and feels the best to you.

This may sound stupid, but I own three grinders and I admit that I really don't know how to use them properly to get the desired results. What I mean is that no one ever showed me or told me what kind of attachment to use for what.
Situation 1: Getting ready to weld. I need to clean up the metal to be welded (remove rust or contamination) and get to shiny steel. Also need a place to clamp the ground.
Situation 2: The weld is done, but I want to remove slag and clean up the weld.
Situation 3: I want to make the weld disappear after I'm done. Maybe it's a patch or a splice and I need to blend the two pieces together.
Situation 4: Prep for paint. I need to make everything smooth.

Design Article
A design to generate UAV electrical power in flight
Guy Wagner, Electronic Cooling Solutions, and Travis Mikjaniec, Mentor Graphics
As smaller UAVs are designed with more sensors and communications technology for longer missions, the additional electrical power to run them drives the need to generate onboard electric power. One way to create onboard electrical power would be to harness the remaining 80 percent "waste energy" produced by the two-stroke engine.
A team of engineers at Electronic Cooling Solutions worked with John Langley and engineers at Ambient Micro to build an exhaust-heat thermoelectric generator (EHTEG) that can be incorporated into a UAV design to harvest and convert this waste energy into electrical power in flight [1] (Figure 1). The engineers at Electronic Cooling Solutions did the initial EHTEG design, as well as analyzing and optimizing the thermal design. Then Langley's team built, tested, and redesigned the generator based on the test results.
Figure 1: UAV with the EHTEG attached on top.
The best choice is the heat that is lost in the exhaust stream because it usually is about the same amount of power, or more, as the power delivered to the shaft, and it's easy to get to.
The EHTEG had to be mechanically robust and integrate into the aircraft without compromising flight safety. It had to extract the required heat without impairing engine performance. It had to provide the largest possible temperature differential across the thermoelectric modules while operating within the maximum temperature limits of the thermoelectric modules. And it had to be designed with minimal weight and aerodynamic drag.
Dr DSP
Thanx for the details on the mechanical, electrical and thermal aspects of the design. Too often we only see one aspect, and in this case the interactions were very critical.
This idea of harvesting the waste energy is really good.
By seeing the roof top mounting of this generator, I thought - why cannot be a wind energy convertor be installed for generating electricity? When the vehicle is cruising at some constant speed , we will be able generate a stable voltage using a small wind mill.
It should also be possible for Helicopters to harvest energy from their big rotating blades
This system is trying to generate electricity from waste heat in the engine exhaust - not from the force of the "air" flow in the exhaust.
The system was originally only 20% efficient meaning 80% was lost as heat, and some fraction of that is in the exhaust, say 30% of the overall energy. This system can capture 5% of that ie 5% of 30% which is only 1.5% of the total energy in the fuel. So at best this raises the thermal efficiency to 21.5%. As the heatsinks etc weigh quite a lot this in itself might increase the fuel consumed. I am not convinced at this level of energy extraction that it has much merit over having a generator linked to the shaft.
Presumably these are TEG's are using the Peltier effect? There may be much more efficient ways to extract energy eg using Sterling engines etc
bharat solanki
i think in car, also we lost good amount of heat energy, instead of wastage something for that also can be done...
When I was nine I connected a motor's shaft to a generator and wired the generator's output to the motor.
With great anticipation and excitement, I wrapped a rope around the shafts and gave it a good tug.
While the shaft rotated a little longer with the wires connected than without, I clearly didn't have the perpetual motion machine I had imagined.
Some years later I learned why.
Amazing that this thing got editorial endorsement considering its amateur adoption of aerothermal analysis relying on CFD (C=Contrived) that cannot conceivably capture complexities conveyed in pictures, not just unfaired facets of equilibrium orientation but more importantly abrupt departures encountered as gust response never mind comment "curl back very symmetrically" without conceding punitive loss factor in all U-turned flow. Reinforced by remarks on meagre recovery energetics from chemical potential unqualified by reference to maximal reality cap 40-50% dictated by law of diminishing returns aka 2nd Law! It's a software sales pitch for a caricaturisation code, one of many in the market and all liable to mislead inexperienced individuals when used away from calibration closure conditions, almost invariably inevitable when any complexity is encountered. I've seen consequences at first hand following fatal accidents when commissioned to critiquise such code variants adapted as nuclear and hydrocarbon safety simulators, also persistence of flawed scalings for years after errors and omissions were documented in more sophisticated literature. Overall then, worth no more than gamma as an auldskule english engineering finalist hons project! @NEALETHOMASnet
prabhakar, as soon as current starts to flow the rotating blades have to overcome a magnetic field and therefore the mechanical resistance is magnified. Hence more fuel is consumed. There's no free lunch there.
I've had an interest in this approach to energy harvesting for years but Peltier devices are particularly difficult to deal with from a design standpoint (not to mention a little pricey and very inefficient).
I'm happy to read of this research. I expect higher temperature devices may come out of it, which would expand the potential applications of these interesting devices.
I am curious what the NET power output difference is between the untouched 2-stroke motor and the one with exhaust mod... Generally, cooling off exhaust, especially of a motor with very specific exhaust parameters, will change the powerband.
Speaking of motors, why no 4-stroke?
I've used TEGs in the past, biggest problem is reliability. They seem to have a relatively short lifetime.
while its possible to attain good temperature differential in such a system for a therocouple but i think that a high efficiency solar cell fitted to utilize the wing span (without destroying the aerodynamic) can be a much less cumbersome and more efficient option.
jeremybirch you win the prize, this whole science experiment could have been summarized in a few paragraphs as a waste of time.
I assume someone was being paid by a arm of the government to perform this demonstration, and throw away way our money. One other technical comment the aero drag caused by the heat exchanger (i.e TEG) most likely wasted significantly more energy than the TEG captured, making net energy captured negative.
How about capturing the heat and use it in a closed loop vapor cycle engine (i.e. similar to air conditioner in reverse, you will get much higher efficiency than 5%)

The Hill County Commissioners have scheduled an open house from 4-8 p.m. on Wednesday, May 24, in the Havre-Hill County Library meeting room for the public to view current proposals on a fence in Beaver Creek Park and to make comments.
Notated maps will be posted on the wall to show where the fence is proposed to be built in the park, with sheets to make written comments. The Department of Transportation maps will show, step-by-step, where the fence recommended by the commissioner's advisory committee would be placed. The public has until June 10 to make comments on the proposal and get them to the commissioners' office.
Department of Transportation representatives will be at the open house, including Mick Johnson, the head of the Great Falls division.
Commissioner Kathy Bessette said nothing on the fence is final at this point. She said their number one priority is to try to get a waiver from the legislature during their next session so a fence will not be necessary. She said local legislators have shown their support to try to pass a waiver.
The fence is required under state regulations in order to receive state funding to improve the highway through the park. The state requires that cattle grazing in the park are kept away from the highway for safety reasons.
Bessette said the state aid in highway improvements is necessary due to property tax cuts which have decreased county funding, necessitating following state regulations such as the proposed fence.
Commissioner Doug Kaercher said the earliest any action would be taken to build the fence or improve the highway would be the summer of 2001. He said other action is being taken to mitigate the problem, such as developing springs to keep the cattle away from the highway and the creek.

Story by Leslie Lang
Photos by Jack Wolford
I'm no athlete, so it's surreal, to say the least, to find myself paddling a canoe out in Hilo Bay with a group of women far older—and fitter—than I am. I blame it on Momi.
In her other life, Pearl "Momi" Lyman works at Hospice of Hilo, but here on Hilo Bay she's a paddler with Wahine on Water (WOW), a women's outrigger canoe paddling team that's part of the Keaukaha Canoe Club. It was Momi who thrust a paddle into my hand and encouraged me to step far outside my comfort zone on terra firma. Now I'm in the fifth seat of a blue and white outrigger canoe called Ha'aheo (Pride), wearing the same red "Fearless Hawaiian" rash guard as everybody else.
I'm a tender 49, but I'm in a canoe with the paddlers called Honua (Earth)—all 60 and older. The other divisions are Makani (Wind), who are 55-59, and Ahi (Fire), who are 50-54. I look at these Honua women's athletic figures, watch their easy, powerful strokes and wonder whether they're telling the truth about their ages. These women—teachers, sheriffs, park rangers, lawyers—are not your stereotypical grandmothers. The first year they competed, the novice Honua wahine qualified for the state regatta on O'ahu.
I try to match the strokes of the 60-plusyear- old woman two seats in front of me and realize it's harder than it looks. "You're going to be great, Leslie!" encourages Miri Sumida, the team's founder, coach and matriarch, who's sitting behind me. Out here on the glistening sea, outside of mist-shrouded Hilo, feeling the steady, strong rhythm of women working together to pull that canoe, I understand why people love to paddle.
Looking back, I see the white mantle of Mauna Kea from the water, and for a moment things take on their proper proportions. "Everything just falls into perspective," Miri says. "Whatever crisis you think you have, it's just not as important as it was when you were on shore."

Their backs against the wall, the New York Knicks edged the Miami Heat 89-87 at Madison Square Garden Sunday night to end their playoff losing streak and extend their Eastern Conference Quarterfinal playoff series.
Carmelo Anthony had 41 points for New York, including a three-pointer that gave the Knicks the lead with 54 seconds remaining, to send the series back to Miami for Game 5.
The win allowed the Knicks to avoid a four-game sweep of the best-of-seven series, and halted their playoff losing streak at 13 games, an NBA record.
The last time the Knicks won a playoff game was in 2001.
Amar'e Stoudemire returned and scored 20 points after missing Game 3 with a cut on his hand that he received when he hit a fire extinguisher door following the Game 2 loss.
"When your back's against the wall like that, you have no choice but to go out there and play. Nobody wants to be swept," Knicks interim head coach Mike Woodson said before Sunday's game. "If we can force Game 5, which I think we can, we can take it to the next level."
"We've just got to take it one game and one day at a time," Anthony said.
Fans coming to the Garden got promotional t-shirts, cups, hats and posters before Sunday's game, as the team went all-out to create a winning atmosphere.
Game 5 will be Wednesday night in Miami.

Sixth Alice, a website that specializes in gorgeous custom made garments such as skirts, tunics, shorts, and dresses, has generously offered to give away a custom skirt to one of my lucky readers! I am so excited about this because the designs are simple which make for a classic,timeless piece (which I always look for when I'm buying clothing). I also love that each piece is made just for you. There are so many different fabric choices and trim choices for all of the items making the options endless! All of the clothing is made in the USA, specifically in Virginia (where I go to school!!). Here are my favorites from Sixth Alice:
I absolutely love this print. The peacocks add a touch of whimsy, and the colors all go together so well. These skirts are so perfect for going out to lunch with friends or heading to a spring party. I think this is the perfect type of skirt to wear to class because it is conservative but also flattering.
I was lucky enough to be sent one and I chose the white peacock print. It is so darling and the quality is wonderful. It is lined and hits me just above my knees. The sizing is true to size. I wear a size four in most brands such as Lilly, J. Crew, Ann Taylor, Banana Republic, etc. and I got a size 4 in the skirt and it is a perfect fit (not to mention, very flattering). I will be doing an OOTD in the coming days!
