Kistler and STASA develop an automatic method for the prognosis of injection molded part quality
Kistler Instrumente GmbH
Kistler and STASA develop an automatic method for the prognosis of injection molded part quality
Swiss company Kistler Instrumente AG of Winterthur is the leading international supplier of
sensors and systems for in-line cavity pressure-based quality monitoring of injection molding
processes. German specialist Steinbeis Angewandte Systemanalyse GmbH (STASA) with
headquarters in Stuttgart has many years of experience in the development of process models,
online prognosis of quality features based on characteristic process values as well as the
application of complex mathematical methods and models to industrial processes. This expertise
is based on scientifically corroborated methods such as the design of experience
(DoE) and the generation of models, and can be reliably applied to injection molding.
The implementation of approved Kistler systems into process-related quality monitoring of
injection molding processes based on process profile characteristics such as the properties
and tolerances of the cavity pressure curve is already widely established. Kistler and STASA
have now joined forces to develop an enhanced quality monitoring method for injection
molding processes that allows the direct quality monitoring and definite prognosis of the
quality of the currently molded part by using the quality models of the STASA QC program.
Based on the process models and measured process parameters, the final dimensions of the
molded part can be predicted online, i.e. while the part is being produced. Immediately after
injection molding, this approach provides information on whether the part will meet specified
dimensional tolerances when it is used.
The new concept has many benefits for manufacturers and OEMs of injection molded products:
they will receive information on the tolerance limits directly from the part specification
and can use this criterion as a parameter of the process monitoring system. This technique
significantly enhances in-line quality monitoring of injection molding processes: the limits of
monitoring parameters such as pressure maxima, pressure integrals and other values need
no longer be defined and evaluated. Instead, the relevant correlations between process
profiles and quality criteria are acquired during mold sampling and are then used for process
monitoring. The DoE used during mold sampling has beneficial side effects, because the
injection molding process can be optimized automatically and ideal parameters for meeting
the required quality criteria can be defined within the process latitude.
This combination of process and quality monitoring with quality prognosis has long been
requested by molders of high-quality, extremely sensitive, hard-to-assemble moldings such
as producers of medical parts and pharmaceutical components. This technology is integrated
into Kistler CoMo Injection process monitoring systems as an optional module. Quality
prognosis will become available as a high-end option for the CoMo Injection during the
course of 2011.

Background: Quality Assurance with Mold Cavity Pressure
The cavity pressure curve is considered to represent a fingerprint of the injection molding
process. It is the most informative characteristic for evaluating the quality of the part. Deviations
from the optimum curve are clear indications of process fluctuations that lead to part
defects ranging from incomplete mold filling to flashing or dimensional discrepancies.
As the supplier with the largest and widest range of sensors for all methods of injection
molding, simple connection technology and intuitively easy to operate, networkable systems,
Kistler is the only manufacturer to offer complete monitoring of injection molding
from a single source. Kistler is the world's leading manufacturer of pressure and temperature

For mannequin-yr 2014, supply oh2o correctly predicted a brand new six-velocity typical-automatic transmission, which, although, wouldn't be used with Freedom Drive II; patrons of Trail Rated Patriots still had to purchase the CVT. Under the pores and skin, the addition of engine compartment and inside floor insulation promise to scale back noise levels and provides the Patriot and Compass a quieter trip, while Jeep has also carried out tuning improvements to the engine exhaust. Stand-alone options for the Patriot Sport embody air-conditioning, black steel or alloy wheels and an upgraded stereo with a six-CD/DVD changer. The Patriot made it although the obstacle without harm, but did require a pull during the last rock.
Available for the primary time in most 2014 Jeep Patriot models is the world-class 6F24 six-speed automatic transmission. Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney repeated a false claim Thursday night time that Chrysler Group might transfer all Jeep vehicle manufacturing to China, drawing criticism from the Obama campaign, which said the Michigan native had blatantly skewed a news wire story. Both trims of the Jeep Patriot could be had with both of the Freedom Drive 4WD methods. The Jeep Patriot is a compact crossover SUV, closely associated to the Jeep Compass.
Overall, C&D does not give the Patriot a standing ovation, however offers it a passing grade, and, within the course of, provides Jeep some badly needed credit score for taking a automobile platform and turning it into a automobile that appears good whereas doing all of the things a Jeep is expected to do, for a remarkably low worth. It works great and doesn't reduce the throttle in that mode like nearly all opponents do. This, combined with the low COG, responsive motor and nice dampening makes the Patriot a blast to drive within the quick stuff. As a outcome, this overview uses applicable research and critiques from the 2007 by means of 2016 model years.
The new Jeep Liberty Rocky Mountain Edition is being supplied in both 4×4 and 4×2 models and adds refreshed 17-inch aluminum wheels with tech silver paint end, P235/65 R17 A/S tires, uconnect tunes 30-gigabyte radio, power solar roof, deep-tinted glass, velocity management and a 'Rocky Mountain' badge. For 2011, a seventieth Anniversary Edition model was provided to commemorate the Jeep historical past. Jeep® Patriot provides unsurpassed off-road capability, up to 30 MPG+ hwy, and nice features in a fun-to-drive, compact SUV.…

Never miss another 'Kasabian' show
Ahead of their headline show at Glastonbury this summer, Kasabian have announced a warm-up date at Plymouth Pavilions.
The date is in addition to the three intimate warm up dates the band have in Scotland and a huge homecoming show in Leicester on June 21st.
**Please note: There is a ticket limit of 6 tickets per person and per credit card on this event.
A glorious synth-tinged melting pot of indie rock that will caress the eardrums. Formed in Leicester while still at school, they took their name from Linda Kasabian, one of the members of the Charles Manson cult. Their electronica-indie rock fusion akin to Primal Scream combined with the rough vocal style and unrepentant Mancunian swagger of Oasis has firmly established them as more than just a flash in the pan and injected a large dose of energy back into the Brit-rock scene.

Our Fourth of July celebration went off without a hitch, and I'm pleased to say that the food was a hit, our guests had fun, and the fireworks were gorgeous, as usual! (This is going to go a bit backwards, as you'll see)
Skylar and I had fun with some sparklers once the fireworks show was over
But I swear, no matter how many sparklers I have, I always want more. I think they're so cool! Wait, this is a food and cooking blog... no, I didn't cook on sparklers (though that would be amazing!) Adam and I decided early in the week that we'd make a feast for our friends on the 4th, and if we had lots of leftovers, great for us! So our menu included:
- Chili con Carne y Frijoles with all the fixings
- Grilled hot dogs (97% Fat Free Hebrew National ones)
- Grilled hamburgers
- Macaroni and Cheese
- Chips and guacamole
- Cupcakes
- Homemade Toasted Coconut Marshmallows
You've all seen the chili before. You've also all seen hot dogs and hamburgers before. I did get some exceptionally beautiful tomatoes to top our burgers.
The marshmallows were by far the best I've made to date!
However, I've never made a macaroni and cheese like I did yesterday, nor have I made the cupcakes I made before, so you'll be privy to both of those recipes. As usual, my cooking took its own form, whereas I followed recipes for the baking excursion. You're going to have to be patient though, since today you're only going to get the cupcake recipe!
My thought process was this: I didn't want a typical red, white, and blue dessert, and I didn't want to do anything with food dye. So, I thought about desserts that were "All American". Apple pie-type cupckakes were a thought at first, but I didn't want to deal with making pie crust in the heat (it was 90*F yesterday!) Then, it hit me. What's more American than Reese's Peanut Butter Cups?
I opted to make rich chocolate cupcakes filled with whipped peanut butter filling and a whipped chocolate ganache icing. I use this word cautiously... they were EPIC cupcakes.
Super Rich Peanut Butter-filled Chocolate Cupcakes
with Whipped Ganache Frosting
From Chockylit at CupcakeBlog
Chocolate Cupcakes
24 regular cupcakes / 350 degree oven
* 5.4 ounces dark chocolate or 3/4 of a 200 gram bar of Valrhona 61% cocao
* 22 tablespoons butter (yes, nearly three sticks of butter!)
* 1-3/4 cups plus 2 tablespoons sugar
* 6 eggs
* 1 cup plus 2 tablespoons flour
* 4-1/2 tablespoons cocoa powder, unsweetened
*1-1/2 teaspoon baking powder
* pinch of salt
1. Melt chocolate and butter over a water bath.
2. Add sugar and stir, let mixture cool for 10 minutes.
3. Beat in an electric mixer for 3 minutes.
4. Add one egg at a time, mixing for 30 seconds between each
5. Sift the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and a pinch of salt into the mixture and mix until blended.
6. Scoop into cupcake cups and bake at 350 F for 25 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.
Peanut Butter Filling
Originally called for 4 oz. cream cheese, but I didn't have any, so I improvised.
* 1-1/2 C. creamy peanut butter
* 1 c. powdered sugar
* 4 Tbsp. unsalted butter at room temperature
* 2 tsp. vanilla extract
1. Beat the peanut butter and butter together in an electric mixer.
2. Gently stir in the vanilla and powdered sugar until well-combined and the mixture is light in color and fluffy.
3. Set aside
Chocolate Ganache
* 4 ounces bittersweet chocolate
* 5 ounces semisweet chocolate
* 1 cup heavy cream
* 1 teaspoon vanilla
*1 tablespoon butter, room temperature
* 2 cups powdered sugar
1. Chop chocolates and transfer into a heat proof bowl.
2. Heat cream until bubbles form around the edge of the pan, pour cream over the chocolate.
3. Let sit for 1 minute then stir until combined.
4. Add butter and vanilla and stir until combined.
5. Transfer to the bowl of an electric mixture and let cool for 10 minutes.
6. Sift powdered sugar into the mixture and beat until combined.
7. Continue to beat with an electric mixer until lighter in color and creamy.
Assembly instructions
1. Using a paring knife, cut a cone out of the center of each cupcake to form a cavity. Reserve the cone-shaped cake.
2. Fill each cavity with the peanut butter filling.
3. Replace the cone on top of the filling.
4. Pipe the whipped ganache on top of each cupcake and decorate as desired.
These decadent cupcakes do need to be refrigerated so they don't spoil, but they HAVE to be brought back to room temperature before eating. While the icing will soften slightly in a few minutes, they're at their best about 15 to 20 minutes outside of the fridge. I did have quite a bit of filling left over, so I'm thinking it'll go in the freezer for future whoopie-pie-making.
Tomorrow will be macaroni and cheese day, but first, the winner of the Wanchai Ferry meal and tea giveaway (not many people entered) was Wei-Wei of Comment #6! Send me an email with your mailing address, and I'll forward it to your benefactor.
Enjoy this hot summer day, wherever you may be!

Statement of Purpose Sample for PhD and Graduate School Admission
Writing a meaningful and persuasive statement of purpose may not only win you a place in a respected university but it also may earn you a scholarship.You can use this sample statement of purpose for your reference if you are applying for any Masters or PhD program.
I am (write your full name here), born and brought up in( your city of birth), ( your country of birth). After completing my Bachelor degree(Electrical Engineering) from University of Texas, USA,I was involved in computer networking related job for almost 2 years, then I joined a master degree program (telecommunications) in University of Manchester ,UK. Before establishing my own telecom & Networking consultancy business, I was doing job in CDMA2000 and WiMaX for over 2.5 years. My working experience in the field of telecom has given me lots of confidence and insights into the field of communication engineering. Moreover, after starting my career as a trainer made me study all the basics and theory of communications technology once again, which was very fascinating because after getting job exposure in the same arena gave me a good visualization power in the critical areas of the communication environments like communication channel modeling, coding theory, multiplexing techniques etc. So, I have Intended my mind to go for a research oriented degree and going for a PhD is the best option, since it would not only give me a details insight to the subjects of my interest but also improve my chances of future technical growth.
Research Project Plan
Becoming involved in a WiMAX project in Bangladesh, I started to understand the immense potential behind the multiplexing technique of OFDM. I strongly believe that there are lot of options either unexplored or underdeveloped in the research arena of OFMD and MIMO. I have a research plan related to MIMO-OFDM. I would like to explore the modeling of MIMO-OFDM system along with spread spectrum in order to maximize the benefits of both the multiplexing system using frequency, time and antenna diversity techniques.
Reason behind choosing of the doctoral school:
In the letter of motivation most of the universities want to know the reason behind choosing the doctoral school of that university. In my case, I came to know about the international reputation of the Universita Di Roma in 2001(when I was doing my bachelor degree in India), based on a ranking published in the communications of the ACM , Dec. 1996 ,measuring research productivity, where its rank was 56.But this is not the only reason for my applying into the School of Science and Technology of Computing and Communication of this university .I believe that the blend of rich culture, technology and heritage of ITALY will definitely open up a new world of opportunities and help me to grow personally, technically and internationally as well.
My Scientific Interests:
I have sound knowledge and interest in wireless communication systems (CDMA2000, GSM, GPRS,EDGE, WiMAX), computer security, programming in C & C++, data communications, coding theory, different types of multiple access techniques, characteristics of communication channels, signal processing, Matlab Simulink, communication tools & blockset, signal processing tools & blockset, curve fitting tool, Bertool etc.
My Future Plan
After Completion of PhD program I would like to join in any private technical university in my home country, because I have found the acute shortage of PhD degree holder faculty member in my place. I also hope that someday I would be able to set up an excellent communication research institute in Dhaka, so as our future generation can produce quality research staying at home. I truly believe that getting admission and scholarship in Universita Di Roma will take me a step ahead in achieving my goals. Finally, I would like to thank Universita Di Roma for offering PhD program in the state- of-the-art areas in communication Technology. Thanking you.
With Regards

Sattler mulls political move
Dumped shock jock Howard Sattler believes he was sacked due to his Parkinson's disease, not his controversial comments about the prime minister.
And he says he may stand against Labor MP Stephen Smith at September's federal election.
Sattler was suspended from the Perth airwaves after his Thursday afternoon interview with Prime Minister
Julia Gillard in which he asked if her partner, Tim Mathieson, was gay.
Less than 24 hours later, he was sacked from Fairfax-owned Radio 6PR and his regular spot on the Seven Network's Sunrise program.
Sattler was diagnosed last year with Parkinson's disease and believes his slurred speech was the real reason he was sacked from the radio.
However, 6PR general manager Martin Boylen rejected the claim.
''That is categorically untrue,'' Mr Boylen told Perth Now.
He said Sattler was fired due to his disrespectful and inappropriate questions to the PM.
Sattler conceded his questions were not politically relevant, but were fair.
''Sexuality is not a major political issue but some people vote against Gillard because they don't like her living arrangements,'' he told Perth Now.
Sattler said he rejected an offer of six months' pay to the end of his contract, instead planning to pursue an unfair dismissal claim.
He said he could not make his debt repayments without a job and was desperate to continue working in radio, or could enter politics by standing against Defence Minister Stephen Smith in the seat of Perth at the forthcoming federal election.
If that happened, it would be an interesting rivalry because Mr Smith had refused to appear on Sattler's show for years due to his on air behaviour.
Mr Smith said Fairfax radio did the right thing by firing Sattler over such a ''disgraceful'' interview.
''If Howard had done the decent thing, he would have fallen on his sword first,'' he told ABC's 7.30 WA on Friday.

Seems that blondes really are taking over the world. First we had the introduction of Blonde Ale, then Starbucks released its Blonde Roast, and now Valrhona has introduced the world's first blonde chocolate. Say what?? Blonde chocolate?? You thought there were just dark, milk and white?
Before we delve into the world of Blonde chocolate, I offer you a quick Chocolate 101 Primer:
The process of making chocolate starts with the cocoa bean. The beans are fermented, dried, roasted and then shelled. These shelled beans, known as cocoa nibs, are ground and the resulting product is a thick liquid known as chocolate liquor. (It's not actually alcohol.) Then, this chocolate liquor is pressed and from this pressing we get two products:
1. Cocoa butter, which is actually the fat from the chocolate liquor
2. Chocolate solids, which when ground results in cocoa powder.
Unsweetened chocolate is basically cocoa butter reblended with cocoa powder. Sugar is added to make semi-sweet and bittersweet dark chocolate, and milk is added to produce milk chocolate. White chocolate contains none of the chocolate liquor. It contains cocoa butter, milk, sugar and sometimes vanilla.
Yes, you chocolate purists out there, I know that technically white chocolate is not really considered chocolate since it does not contain any pulp from the cocoa solids extracted from the cocoa bean.
To be labeled white chocolate, there must be a minimum of 20% cocoa butter, 15% milk powder and a maximum of 55% sugar. Note that real white chocolate is not pure white in colour, it is actually an ivory colour. If you see snow white chocolate, it is likely that it contains vegetable oil, rather than cocoa butter and trust me, the taste difference is significant!
OK, now onto the discovery that rocked my world, Blonde Chocolate! (Just a little aside here, when I announced this startling discovery to my husband and two sons they all started snoring! Ungrateful sods, no blonde chocolate treats for them!)
As with several other culinary innovations, this one was also an act of pure serendipity! About 8 years ago, Frédéric Bau, Executive Chef and director of Valrhona's Ecole du Chocolat, was doing a demonstration for pastry chefs from around the globe. He had some white chocolate melting in a bain-marie. He used a small amount of that white chocolate for his demonstration and the remainder was left sitting there, continuing to slowly heat, completely forgotten about.
Around 10 hours later, he returned to discover that the white chocolate had caramelized into a stunning buckwheat honey blonde colour. It had the aroma of toasted shortbread, and when he stuck his finger in there for a taste, he was shocked to discover an intense biscuity, caramel flavour. It was smooth, buttery and there was a hint of salt on the finish. Frédéric was convinced that he was clearly onto something big here. It took almost 8 years to be able to reproduce this happy accident on a large scale and sell it commercially.
But in October of 2012 Dulcey 32%, the world's first blonde chocolate was born. Clearly I must have been living under a rock, as I had no idea about this launch. I only became aware of it last week when I got an email from The Vanilla Food Company, featuring some new products to their lineup. My mind was spinning with the possibilities and I immediately ordered a 2 kilogram bag.
Since Passover is coming up soon (March 25), I decided to make some macarons and fill them with a Blonde Chocolate ganache. I think Frédéric would approve. These are classic French macarons, with only one "o", not to be confused with American macaroons, (with two "oo"'s), which are made with coconut.
Macaons are the perfect Passover dessert, since they contain no flour. There is a plethora of information and recipes out there in the Blogosphere. I have tried numerous recipes and techniques. Last year I discovered Stella Parks' (aka Bravetart) macaron primer. I had always thought that macarons were the prima donnas of the pastry world, very temperamental and required a delicate touch. Not so says Stella. If you are a macaron geek like me, then these posts by Stella are required reading:
1. The 10 Commandments of Macaron Baking
To make your life easy, print out this template for piping your macarons. Depending on the size of your baking sheets, you could print two and tape them together. Place template on baking sheet, cover with parchment and set aside.
A kitchen scale and stand mixer are recommended for success with macarons. Classic macarons begin with almond flour, sometimes called almond meal. You can buy ground almonds at most grocery store or bulk food stores. The ground almonds are combined with powdered sugar and then pressed through a sieve.
Egg whites, sugar and salt are whipped to stiff peaks. Stella gives quite explicit instructions, including number of minutes and speeds, which I have detailed in my attached recipe.
The meringue is whipped enough when there is a big clump of meringue in the center of your whisk, like this:
Next the ground almond/powdered sugar mixture is dumped on top of the meringue and a rubber spatula is used to combine everything. A combination of a folding stroke and a pressing motion, against the sides of the bowl to help deflate the meringue, are used. Remember, we are making macarons here, not meringues. You want to knock the air out of the egg whites.
The batter, also known as the macaronage, is sufficiently mixed and perfect for piping when you spoon some batter on top of the bowl and it mounds up on itself, but after about 20 seconds, it melts back down on itself. Your macaronage is under-mixed and too stiff if you spoon some out and drop it back into the mix and it just sits there, never incorporating. Your macaronage is over-mixed if it has the consistency of pancake batter. Do not let it get to this stage!
Filling the piping bag is easy if you place it inside a tall glass or pitcher, and cuff the top down. Only fill the bag half full. Otherwise, it will ooze out from the top and you will have a sticky mess, and probably curse me!
Pipe just inside the circles, as the mixture will spread.
Remember to remove template before baking. Top half the macarons with a few Skor bits. These will be the top half of your macaron sandwich cookies.
While macarons are baking and cooling, prepare ganache filling. Bring cream and butter to a boil. Pour over chopped blonde chocolate. (You could also use white, milk or dark chocolate) Let sit for 3 minutes then whisk until smooth.
Let cool to room temperature, until quite thick and then pipe onto half the macarons. Top with Skor lids.
Macarons will keep in the fridge for a week or in the freezer for up to a month. Let come to room temperature before serving.

SAN DIEGO - Paul Azinger answered his phone during the final round of a U.S. Open that attracted a prime-time audience, the Ryder Cup captain among those camped in front of the TV.
"I'm watching my show pony," he said, referring to longtime friend Rocco Mediate.
Asked what he thought about his Secretariat, there was a slight pause.
"I'm a little worried for him," Azinger said while watching Tiger Woods flinch, grimace, limp and hit a career's worth of clutch shots at Torrey Pines. "Not for the Ryder Cup. I just hope he's not doing anything to create a long-term issue for himself. That's my concern."
Woods seems to have everyone worried.
The countdown toward Jack Nicklaus' benchmark of 18 professional majors began in earnest three years ago when Woods won the Masters in a playoff and reached the halfway point with his ninth Grand Slam title.
But when he picked up No. 14 with a playoff victory Monday at the U.S. Open, looking into his future was like summer in San Diego. It can be so foggy you can't see the Pacific from the bluffs, or clear enough to see across the ocean to La Jolla Cove.
"I think I need to shut it down for a little bit," Woods said. "I pushed it pretty hard this week, and I just want to enjoy it. And we're going to reevaluate after this event and see what happens."
What does that mean? How bad is his knee? How severe was the pain?
Only Woods knows, and he's more tightlipped with an injury report than Bill Belichick.
The Buick Open next week is most certainly out, and probably his own AT&T National at Congressional the week after. Even the British Open at Royal Birkdale, where Woods missed out on a playoff by one shot in 1998, is up in the air.
Woods is expected to expand on his immediate future later this week.
In the meantime, this surely will be a summer of speculation.
Perhaps it was only fitting that Woods cradled his daughter in his arms before handing Sam Alexis, who turns 1 today, over to his wife. As he was piling up majors at a staggering rate, conventional wisdom said that only three things could keep Woods from breaking Nicklaus' major record - marriage, children or injury.
He handled the first two just fine. But he has had three surgeries on his left knee, two in the last five years.
"We've got to get this fixed," one member of his camp said quietly.
After going 91 holes to win at Torrey Pines, someone brought up Ben Hogan's victory in the 1950 U.S. Open at Merion, which came 16 months after a near-fatal car accident. As injuries ago, there is no comparison.
"Geez, he was in the hospital and he didn't know if he was ever going to walk again," Woods said.
But there is a worthy comparison in their schedules.
Hogan never played more than nine times a season for the rest of his career. He won three of the four events he played in 1951, including the U.S. Open and the Masters. He won all three majors he played among eight tournaments in 1953.
This was the second time Woods returned from a two-month layoff due to knee surgery and won at Torrey Pines. The other was the 2003 Buick Invitational.

18 month old reverting to EBF?
So, I have a newborn and an 18 month old. She will pick at the food we give her at meal time, ( she still sits with us at meal times and we eat as a family) but since her brother was born she has been demanding to nurse a lot more.
She is having pretty much ebf poop, which tells me that she is barely picking at what we give her for meals. I know that this isn't *bad* for her, it is a bit of a hassle for me though because she is demanding to nurse so often, plus the demands of the newborn.
Anyone else have a little one who completely reverted back to ebf after nursing maybe 2-3 times a day?
She is also trying to potty train herself, ( she pees on the potty consistently when given opportunity) but I worry that the ebf poop will be too hard for her to predict and get to the potty in time as well.
Mommy of FIVE!!!
Tara~12.16.03 Zachary~5.17.05 Rowan~1.17.09 Willow~8/10/11 Soren~ 1/28/13
It is really common for a toddler at this age to suddenly want to nurse more and eat less solids. It is just a phase, I wouldn't worry about it, just wait for it to pass!
I found allowing the older child to nurse on demand they were reassured mommy is stll for them and so is the milk. And my oldest backed down on her own
Yep went through this with all my toddlers that I tandem nursed with. It'll pass.
You guys are total champs im not sure I could have fed in tandem, that is amazing. way to go moms
Normal phase, totally okay to just ride it through.. :o)

GAINESVILLE, Fla. -- Florida coach Urban Meyer accidentally confirmed Monday former Southern California running back Emmanuel Moody is transferring to the defending national champions.
"He's not here yet," Meyer said during his weekly news conference.
Meyer quickly realized his error and said, "He's not here." Then, he paused and said, "Oops."
Thus ends a week of speculation about where Moody would end up.
A 6-foot-1, 205-pound sophomore from Texas, Moody decided to transfer after getting caught in a glut of highly touted tailbacks. He has to sit out the 2007 season under the NCAA's transfer rules and will have three years of eligibility remaining. He apparently made his decision Monday and was expected to enroll soon.
Before missing the final four games because of a sprained ankle last season, Moody gained 458 yards on 79 carries and finished as Southern California's second-leading rusher.
Meyer also said the Gators could be without starting cornerback Markihe Anderson in Saturday's season opener against Western Kentucky. Anderson sprained the medial collateral ligament in his right knee Saturday.
"We're still hopeful he's going to be ready," Meyer said, adding that Anderson definitely would return for the Sept. 8 game against Troy.

Brimstone Kiss: Delilah Street, Paranormal Investigator
by Carole Nelson Douglas
Review by Gayle Surrette
Juno Books Paperback ISBN/ITEM#: 9780809573042
Date: 29 October 2008 List Price $7.99 Amazon US / Amazon UK / Show Official Info /
The second entry in the Delilah Street mystery series, Brimstone Kiss doesn't disappoint. Delilah is determined to find out who the vampire she and Ricardo Montoya discovered buried in the park is or was. In fact, she has three clients who are willing to pay for that name, and maybe a couple willing to kill her to keep her from finding out. Then there is the mystery surrounding her look-a-like Lilith -- who is she and why do they look so much alike?
Taking up where the last book, Dancing With Werewolves, left off Brimstone Kiss doesn't waste any time getting the reader back into this Las Vegas after the Revelation filled with vampires, werewolves, CinSims, and some creatures not yet willing to stand in the light. Delilah may be new at being a detective -- her business cards say she's a detective -- but she is a journalist and she knows how to dig for the truth.
Being an orphan, Delilah was kicked around the system until she came of age and she doesn't trust easily. She's finding allies in Rick, some of the CinSims, and others that might be allies or only temporarily on the same side. Then too, she's found that she does have some powers of her own and she's trying to figure out what the limits are and how they work. There's also a lot going on politically and socially in this Las Vegas and the Post-Millennium Revelation world.
Delilah is our point of view character and she seems to the reader to be one that we can trust. She doesn't delude herself about what she sees and so the reader feels comfortable believing in her. However, Delilah thinks more is going on that what she sees and from the evidence it seems that there are some plot threads that are being woven into the background of the city and the character's backstory that might suddenly rear up in a future book and become the plot. Because of this sensed layer of background, the world and the characters are rich and easy to believe in.
As you'd expect, Delilah stumbles upon some clues that lead her into danger. She's had to make some radical decisions that could effect many others. The plot thickens and the tension builds and you find yourself carried along for the ride. Nothing marks a good book more than finding the world outside the pages disappearing for the length of time it takes to finish the book. Douglas has a way of drawing you in and keeping you entertained.
The book also has a list of Actors, Roles, Films, and TV series with links; Selected Web Sites on Ancient Egypt, and the recipes for Albino Vampire Cocktail and Brimstone Kiss Cocktail.

If you had a lot of gold (i.e. 500k +), what would you invest for profit? I.e. are there markets that only ppl with lots of gold can get in and make a decent profit off?
If you had a lot of gold (i.e. 500k +), what would you invest for profit? I.e. are there markets that only ppl with lots of gold can get in and make a decent profit off?
There isnt a niche market that only the "millionaires" can get into really. Unless you are one a VERY high pop realm and can flip TCG loot items. But even that is a risky game to play considering alot of the items are botted and crashed in price.
I think TCG items/mounts is indeed probably the only thing that comes to mind. Having gold mostly just means you have a number of professions leveled and (can) have a hand in all the major markets. You won't be stuck for gold buying materials in bulk, or sitting on 10-12 DMC decks waiting to be turned into trinkets at the faire. It's that bulk, and lack of risk to your daily doings that's what's different between someone with a lot of gold and someone without a copper on him, not so much which markets you have available.
Just wait for corrupted ashbringer, you will be waiting a looooong time.
500k? that's not much. I have close to that amount now and I still feel broke. I can't buy mounts because if I did i'd have no gold left. Yes, there is a market for people who have the gold on my server. I think a mil would be a better for your question for investing in profit. lvl some alts and do your farms everyday. I'm doing 5 farms a day atm and making bank.
Flipping eng mounts.
Canicus - 577 - Arcane Mage - US Mal'Ganis Horde - 12/14H T16
I've made 220k gold in one morning just from buying a "normal" spectral tiger mount for 200k and flipping it for 420k. Still have a Swift Spectral waiting for me whenever I turn my account back on. Buying expensive items and posting them for even more is probably the best thing about having that amount of gold. It's definitely the quickest way to make an enormous amount fast.
Im sitting on 850k gold on Auchindoun and 3 Million on sylvanas. I got some tcg mounts/pets but I'm a Scrooge with my gold. No matter how much I got I refuse to spend it.
Really, once you pass your first goldcap its hard to see yourself under 900k :P
i would employ minions to do my bidding
And while the cobras dance around your feet like you're a god
It only takes one bite for you to realize you are not
A lot of people stay rich by not spending it. It also depends on which server you are on becaise its a lot easier to make big amounts depending on the server.
I tend to buy stock to cover me against fluctuations. If I see cheap stuff I know I will use later then I buy it , even if its 2-4 months down the line.
Yeah, the server can make a massive difference. On a low pop server you can completely control only a few markets with maybe only a single char. Where on larger server, you need to have you hand in many markets to keep the gold coming in if one market spikes or crashes for a while.
I've had 500k gold or more but I just gave a randomly number to friends when they needed. I LOVED to farm and do AH so it was easy for me to gather gold compared to all my lazy friends. Never really had a thing to invest as such but it was fun to buy out stuff and make a new price on it.
500k is rich? I play casually and have amassed a little over 2 million on one server. All the while, I buy all the stupid vanity items I can.
LOL so fuckin mad
I have a rather hard time making gold, at least any sizable amount. Have an even harder time keeping it lol. Granted, if I hadn't gotten sucked into 80-85 twinking recently, I'd probably be on my way to gold cap.
I have found though, that in the grand scheme of things, it's not hard making gold. I started a new character on a random server, and just AH'ing almost anything I picked up, I managed to make a little over 50k just from the AH by the time I reached 85 (was back in cata). That's not counting what you make from vendoring crap along the way, quest rewards, instance drops, etc. I made a bank toon to handle all AH transactions, so I could keep track of exactly what I made.
It always boggled my mind that, with 12 or 13 level 90s now, I am perpetually broke when I managed to make that much gold with just ONE character. You'd think I'd be rolling in gold now lol.
Though I used to turn almost every crap into gold in Cata, I find it hard to stay rich in MoP. While it was easy to make 5.000+ G day by day, this isn´t the case now. Everything is too cheap and people seem to need less stuff.
Dailies are almost as efficient with the chance for Motes of Harmony or other rare drops. The "neccessary" stuff in MoP (like crafting the daily cloth, the daily gem, the daily scroll, win 1 bg, do 1 lfr, grind 1 factions daily quests) eats so much time that I rarely visit the auction house at all nowadays.
So, no matter how rich you are - it doesn´t seem to help. ^^

A 45-year-old worker is apparently safe Tuesday afternoon after being trapped for a short time inside a shuttered building supplies store in Hoffman Estates that was undergoing demolition.
Police received a call shortly before 4 p.m. to the vacant Menards store at the Barrington Square Mall off Higgins Road near Barrington Road. The structure sustained a partial collapse, leaving a man trapped, Hoffman Estates Assistant Police Chief Steve Casstevens said. The fire department freed him about 55 minutes later from a 3-foot-high pocket underneath the fallen roof, police said. Paramedics took him to St. Alexius Medical Center in Hoffman Estates, where he was treated and released.
Workers have been at the site for three weeks, said Richard Garcia, owner of America's Bar and Grill. Garcia's establishment neighbors the Menards, with his office sharing a wall with it. He and an assistant heard a loud "ka-boom." He said he saw paramedics take the trapped worker off on a stretcher. The victim, who is from Chicago, was talking.
"They were doing a pretty good job," Garcia said. "Everything looked like it was done proper."
The collapse didn't cause damage to neighboring businesses, Garcia said.
The Menards closed in November 2008 after a bigger store opened in Hanover Park. Recently, the strip mall's Dutch owners had plans approved by the Hoffman Estates village board to revamp the site, trying to lure a grocery store as an anchor. There's talk of utilizing tax increment financing to draw a business.
The mall was built in the early 1970s, and the owner wanted to invest $15 million to remodel the 230,000-square-foot shopping center. The mall's owners said infrastructure improvements were needed, including lights and drainage.
OSHA crews later arrived and the partially collapsed wall was later demolished, police said.

Juneau residents should start thinking about how to deal with the 30,000 tons of garbage they generate every year.
Waste Management, Juneau's primary garbage management provider, will shut down its two incinerators by June 30 partly because the incinerators have reached the end of their 20-year lifespan and partly because it will cost the company a lot of money to make the two incinerators meet new federal regulations on pollutant controls.
Michael Allison, Waste Management's Southeast Alaska district manager, said the company is unlikely to buy new incinerators because they are expensive. Without the incinerators burning the trash and reducing its size, Allison estimates that Waste Management's landfill at Lemon Creek has roughly 30 years to go.
"We are filling up instead of filling out," Allison said.
To address Juneau's long-term garbage problem, there have been efforts from the city government, grassroots groups and corporations to encourage recycling and reduce consumption.
During both his terms, Mayor Bruce Botelho appointed a recycling task force. The first task force concluded in its 1990 report saying that "recycling is not a panacea but it does help avoid future costs of handling waste by extending landfill life."
In 1998, the city started its recycling program and contracted with Waste Management to recycle newspapers, aluminum cans, cardboards and glass. The nonprofit Friends of Recycling pays a courier to pick up office white paper from the State Office Building and send the paper to the recycling center. Local supermarkets such as Fred Meyer give customers 5 cents off if they bring their own grocery bags.
The efforts have made a difference. More and more people are sending recyclables to Waste Management's recycling center.
Janeann Twelker, 51, brings her own and her neighbor's recyclables to the recycling center at the landfill once every two months.
"Although I like to reuse things, there is only so much newspapers you can use unless you have baby ducks," Twelker said.
Every month, Waste Management ships two to five trailers of recyclables out.
However, fewer than 5 percent of Juneau residents are recycling, said Janet Grange, administrative officer of the city Public Works Department.
There are several reasons why Juneau's recycling program hasn't been more popular.
Storing recyclables takes space, but many houses in Juneau don't have garages. Some people are afraid that the recyclables will attract bears. Grange said Waste Management hasn't been able to well-publicize its recycling program.
Brett Farrell, who has lived in Juneau since the summer of 2002, wasn't aware that Juneau had a recycling program until he was appointed to the mayor's recycling task force committee in February.
Questions about the cost-effectiveness of recycling may be a factor in the lack of enthusiasm for recycling.
Unlike many cities in the Lower 48, Juneau doesn't have a curbside pickup recycling program. Residents have to bring their recyclables to the recycling center every Wednesday and Saturday. Although there have been discussions about starting a curbside pickup program in Juneau, the city didn't do it because it didn't know whether it was feasible financially.
And the recycling business is not always profitable.
"One of the unique problems we face here in Juneau is economy of scale," Allison said. "In a larger market, they can bring in enough volumes of recyclables to process and sell. We don't have enough volumes here."
And like everything else in Juneau, there is a shipping cost. Waste Management ships out the recyclables to Washington state for processing. Each trailer, according to its weight and size, costs between $800 and $1,500.
The price for each recyclable fluctuates every month. Right now, cardboards are a hot item and worth $70 a ton. Plastics used to be a money-losing item, but the price for recycled plastics keeps rising and the city now wants to include it in its next contract.
To address these problems - many of which were mentioned in the 1990 recycling task force's report but haven't been solved yet - the city and various organizations have been studying how to motivate people to reduce consumption, reuse and recycle.
As Waste Management's contract expires in July, Grange wants whoever wins the new contract to stress educating people and promoting recycling. Mayor Botelho said he might ask the city to conduct a feasibility study about curbside pickups. And whether or not Juneau residents are recycling, they are paying $4.50 a month for recycling, which is included in the wastewater and sewer bills.
"Recycling can be an economic engine and a good community effort," said Frankie Pillifant, chairwoman of the 2004 mayor-appointed waste management task force.
Looking out at the landfill from his office, Allison said technology might advance so much in 30 years that Juneau might not need a landfill to solve its trash problem, or it can simply send the trash out, like many other towns in Alaska.
From his window, Allison can see bald eagles and crows perch on the smoking charcoal-like mass. Cubes of pressed tin cans look like modern sculptures with shining collages of colors. Gray smoke from the two incinerators hovers over the landfill 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
"We can do many things to deal with Juneau's trash problem, but recycling and reducing the types of things we put in the landfill may be the easiest," Allison said. "It is something we all can do. It not only helps the environment but also helps our landfill not to be filled as fast as it is now."

To predict how severe the symptoms of multiple sclerosis (MS) is likely to be for a patient, and whether a certain treatment will work, doctors have identified four types of MS.

These identified types (or sometimes referred to as phenotypes) explain the course of your disease and are an important part of the diagnosis process.

The Types of Multiple Sclerosis

Depending on the symptoms, and the length and duration of relapses (also called "flares," "exacerbations" or "attacks") and remissions, your doctor will assign a disease type to your condition.

Although each person living with MS experiences the illness differently, and each type may have a mild, moderate or severe course and even change types over time, being aware of which type your MS falls into can help you and your doctor to plan your course of treatment and manage your care.

Relapsing-Remitting MS (RRMS)

This type of MS is marked by a series of relapses (periods when symptoms get worse) and remissions (periods when symptoms are better). The course is a back-and-forth switch between a worsening and an improving of symptoms.

During the relapse phase, a person will notice a loss of function and often develop new symptoms. During the remission period, these symptoms fully or partially disappear. Corticosteroids are often used to shorten the duration of relapses.

Relapsing-remitting MS is the most common type of MS, representing 85percent of new diagnoses.

Primary Progressive MS (PPMS)

In this type of MS, people experience a slow but steady worsening of symptoms. Generally, people gradually become worse over time, though the rate of worsening varies greatly among people. About 10 percent of MS is primary progressive.

Secondary Progressive MS (SPMS)

People with secondary progressive MS were originally diagnosed with relapsing-remitting MS. These people have stopped having periods of remission and experience a slow but steady worsening of symptoms. This category varies greatly for each individual, though symptoms usually steadily worsen over time.

About 50 percent of people with relapsing-remitting MS developed secondary progressive MS within ten years. However, this was before the widespread use of disease-modifying medications. Researchers are still waiting to learn the effects of these medications on the progression of MS.

Progressive-Relapsing MS (PRMS)

People with progressive-relapsing MS have a steady worsening of symptoms along with exacerbations. A steady worsening of symptoms without the periods of remission found in relapsing-remitting MS. About 5 percent of all people with MS have progressive-relapsing MS.

Other Descriptions Associated With MS

In addition to the types mentioned, there may also be subtypes of MS that your doctor may categorize your condition under. For example, some people with SPMS still have occasional relapses, and this is termed "active" disease. When there are no more relapses, the disease is called "not active."

Also, before you are even diagnosed with MS, there is another type, called Clinically Isolated Syndrome (CIS).

CIS refers to the occurrence of the first episode of neurological symptoms due to inflammation in the central nervous system and demyelination (damage to the protective covering that surrounds nerve fibers in the brain and spinal cord). For CIS, the following must take place:

The episode must last for more than 24 hours

Have characteristics of multiple sclerosis but not yet meet the criteria for a diagnosis of MS

People who experience a CIS may or may not go on to develop MS

Individuals with CIS who are considered at high risk for developing MS may be treated with an FDA-approved disease-modifying therapy as early treatment has been shown to delay the onset of MS.

A Word From Verywell

The type of MS you have is important to know because it does affect how your doctor treats you. That being said, it is probably best to not get too bogged down in the nuances of one type versus another. In the end, MS is a variable illness, so even two people with the same type of MS likely have quite unique symptoms and experiences with their disease.

You may remember it as Pier in Rose Bay, or its short-lived reincarnation as The Sailors Club. Regatta Dining has opened this month as the next successor and brings a dining experience reminiscent of the original venue's heydays.
Regatta Dining Rose Bay
With a pared back interior in harmony with its waterfront surrounds, the design team at Luchetti Krelle brings an understated elegance with raw timber tones and blue accents.
Regatta Dining Bar
The bar remains to one side of the venue relatively unaltered, facing the deck,
Other Dining Room
while the space previously with casual lounges has been converted to another dining room carrying the maritime theme.
View of the Deck
Fresh seafood and quality of produce take centre stage on the enticing menu by Chef Claudio Morales (ex Uccello and Ash St Cellar).
Oysters Natural
A range of raw dishes leads the menu with Oysters from Marimbula ($4.50 each), freshly shucked, swimming in their brine and served natural with mignonette,
Sashimi Selection
while the Sashimi Selection with pickled ginger and wasabi entices with fresh and clean flavours ($32/$64). Both courses paired well with the aperitif style Laurent-Perrier Ultra Brut NV, a zero dosage champagne.
Ricotta Gnocchi, Moreton Bay Bugs
From the entrées, the Ricotta Gnocchi with Moreton Bay Bugs ($29) brings all the lightness and elegance of the crustacean flavour into the dish, accented with peas, chopped tomato and a light broth.
Confit Calamari, Celery, Avocado, Roasted Tomatoes, Lingotto
The Confit Calamari, Celery, Avocado, Roasted Tomatoes, Lingotto ($25) is not to be missed. The calamari is slow-cooked into a soft and slippery texture which retains it flavour, making it one of the best calamari dishes ever tasted.
Both dishes paired well with the citrus notes of Laurent Perrier Brut NV.
Crispy Scale Snapper
From the mains, the Crispy Scale Snapper ($37) with a simple spring vegetable medley and salsa verde is almost too pretty to eat. The fish is moist and perfectly cooked and the crispy scales add texture and a little seasoning.
Rosemary Crusted Lamb Rack
It's not all seafood at Regatta Dining. The Rosemary Crusted Lamb Rack ($42) comes with ribs, artichoke, broad beans, pairing well with Laurent Perrier Brut Rosé.
Chocolate & Bitter Caramel Mousse
For dessert, the Chocolate & Bitter Caramel Mousse ($17) is rich and decadent and comes with chocolate sorbet, and a cherry gel.
A Selection of 3 Cheeses
A Selection of Cheese ($28) is presented with roasted grapes, lavosh, fruit and nut bread and rounds up the meal nicely. The cheese pairs very well with Laurent-Perrier Grand Siècle, a multi-vintage prestige cuvée with complex aromas, yeasty character and a long finish.
Whether you're looking for a restaurant to celebrate a special occasion or to impress someone, Regatta Dining in Rose Bay leaves you with a memorable experience that combines stunning cuisine and produce with excellent service and unbeatable water views.

Grüß Gott! This week we feature an excellent online dictionary, how to watch TV in German, and the Willamette World News program.
This week's entry starts out with one of the most basic tools for foreign language learners – an online translation dictionary. The most helpful one we have found in our searches is called LEO, found here, or at http://dict.leo.org. When you search for a word, both translations and relevant phrases pop up. This is very useful! For example, searching for the translation of the English verb "to see" also provides translations for:
to see about something
to see you later
a must-see
to see for yourself
I see your point
the Holy See.
All-encompassing, wouldn't you agree? Bookmark this site or place a link on your toolbar – we guarantee you'll use it.
Our second topic this week involves an amazing resource that Willamette provides. As you may or may not know, the large and rather ugly satellite dish on the south roof of Smullin/Walton is not merely for show. It is part of a special program that enables the building to receive television channels from around the world. You can watch these channels from any of the TVs in Smullin or Walton, or from any of the computers in the Language Learning Center (room 18B in the basement, remember?).
We have one channel that is earmarked for German stations. At the moment, it is set on the Prosieben channel, although Deutsche Welle (a news channel) and Kino (lots of movies) are also options. If you prefer to watch one of these others, let the LLC assistant know and we will switch it out. If something is broadcast during a busy time for you, we can even digitally record programs!
Finally, for all you multilinguals, keep in mind that there are many other channels offered as well – TV5Monde in French, CNN en Espanol, and others in Japanese, Chinese, and Russian.
Last but not least is the Willamette World News. You can find it here, or from a link on the left side of the LLC home page. This site is a great way to get to know your Willamette peers better, while keeping in touch with what events are happening around the world. The World News is basically a blog created by international students at Willamette. For each entry, they link to a current event or news story about their country and give their explanation, opinion, or cultural context about it. This year's issue debuted last week with an introduction from each of our contributers. Check it out!
Finally, if there's anything you'd like to know more about, or a German resource you need, let us know by leaving a comment on this blog. We are here to help you!

Find info concerning Coastal Carolina University average SAT scores, and registering for elective discussion sections and seminars. As a student, your first stop should be the registrar's office, where you can pick up a free copy of both the academic calendar and course catalog, in order to find available credit classes that you may be interested in taking. In-person class registration has largely been replaced with online sign-up, and many schools offer mobile apps that streamline the course registration process. Finally, check with the admissions office for assistance with prerequisites, tuition payment deadlines, and Coastal Carolina University scholastic aptitude test information. Please use the form above to request admissions info for Coastal Carolina University.
Regarding whether to choose the SAT or ACT, there is no penalty for guessing wrong answers on the ACT, but on the SAT, incorrect guessing is penalized. Some SAT questions can be trickier while some ACT questions may be longer. The ACT has more questions geared to higher levels of mathematics, suggesting that students who do well in math may perform better, but that the SAT may be a better choice for students with a strong vocabulary.
Most colleges accept either the SAT or ACT, and have formulas for converting test scores into admissions criteria. One benefit of the ACT test is that it allows you to select specific colleges to which to send scores. Students should practice taking the test under simulated testing conditions, and wear a large watch with a sweeping second hand. On average, over half of those retaking the SAT or ACT tests saw improvements in their scores. Beyond degree requirements such as Coastal Carolina University SAT Test, you may consider Tompkins Cortland Community College evaluations for complementary electives to your primary course of study.

Alcohol abuse
Alcohol becomes a problem when an individual feels unable to cope without it, or when it prevents them from living a normal life.
When the uncontrollable desire for alcohol overrides an individual's ability to stop drinking, they are often referred to as being alcohol dependent. Like any other addiction, alcohol dependence can be extremely hard to break and it can be very difficult for an individual to even acknowledge the existence of their problem.
Alcohol abuse can cause problems in relationships, careers and finances and individuals often need to seek help from professionals to control the habit. Many people not suffering from alcohol dependence can't understand why the individual can't simply stop, however addictions can seem as strong as the need for food or water. Those suffering from alcohol dependence often experience feelings of guilt, shame and remorse but despite efforts to control the habit, many individuals find this difficult on their own.
On this page
How much should I drink?
Drinking in moderation does not indicate a dependence on alcohol, and many people consume alcohol now and then without becoming dependent on it. Government guidelines now recommend that both men and women should drink no more than one to two units of alcohol each day. One unit is equal to a 25ml measure of spirit, a 125ml glass of 8% ABV wine or a half pint of average strength (4%) beer. However some medical experts believe these guidelines are even too high, and have highlighted the dangers of 'saving' units up to binge drink at the weekend.
Many health problems are associated with excess alcohol consumption, including liver cirrhosis, heart failure, depression, anxiety and damage to the brain and nervous system. Research suggests that approximately a quarter of men and one in six women drink enough to put their health at risk in the UK. The fact that alcohol is so easily available and socially acceptable may account for this to some extent.
Symptoms of alcohol abuse
- persistent drinking
- a strong desire to drink
- loss of control
- mood changes
- lack of concentration
- memory blackouts
- a growing tolerance to drink
- lack of interest in other activities.
Physical symptoms associated with alcohol dependence can include nausea, sweating, anxiety and shaking.
Causes of alcohol abuse
A number of factors are thought to lead to alcohol dependence. Environmental factors such as peer pressure, friends and the fact that alcohol is easily available and socially acceptable often influence the probability that an individual will become alcohol dependent. Genetic factors may also play a role; alcohol dependence seems to cluster in some families, however it is hard to identify if this is due to learned behaviour. Alcohol dependence may also develop from masking other types of distress such as stress, anxiety or depression.
Treatment for alcohol abuse
As many individuals suffering from alcohol dependence find it difficult to acknowledge the existence of their problem, it may remain undetected for years. However, many individuals are able to rebuild their lives and control their addiction with the right treatment and support. Sometimes medication may be prescribed to prevent withdrawal symptoms, and vitamin supplements are often recommended if the individual is a chronic drinker and malnourished.
Hypnotherapy is often useful for the treatment of addictions. Relaxation techniques can help access an individual's unconscious mind and uncover the root cause of the addiction. Understanding why alcohol has become a problem and learning techniques to replace the destructive behaviour can often help those with alcohol dependence. Using hypnosis to re-examine an individual's lifestyle can lead to better coping strategies and create different attitudes towards alcohol. Once the root cause has been identified, dealing with it can begin.

Hi all,
As a researcher in low-level security Intel AMT has drawn my attention and I would like to implement my own application and/or security kernel at the AMT level. The Intel website however only mentions a SDK for building applications that use existing AMT features. Is there an AMT emulator that Intel provides or can I buy a research system somewhere? Is there perhaps another option that would allow me to run sensible benchmarks?

|drone3 a professional user from Canada writes:
If you enjoy playing the newer hi-tech keyboards that sound great no matter which keys you press down, this synth is not for you. The PSS-680 requires creative minds only. The sounds are virtually unlimited with the use of parameter variables. The pitch wheel is also great for added expression. Fuzzy distorted sounds are reminiscent of the DX-7 or a Casio CZ-101, awesome! You may like to check out a PSS-380 or PSS-360 as they are very similar, but have sliders on the top interface to really give movement to the sounds you play. I would love to hear an album from a guys basement that is written entirely on this keyboard.

I bought one of these recently just to add a few touches to my samples and breaks. It's a charming machine and although the sounds aren't as glossy as the modern synths, they have a certain character that feels very authentic and 'eighties'.

I bought my PSS-680 from my nephew for $16. I had never played with any sort of synth/sequencer before. It's easy to use and although it may be a little cheesy sounding it's a hell of a lot of fun. Real time adjustments, ease of use, and the cool sounds I get when I run it through effects pedals all make this little keyboard worth owning.

All along this instrument has had good sound quality and only being skeptical of its humbleness did I try to turn to other intruments that have sounds that are direct copies of real intruments. This pss 680 is clear and professional and I thank Sonic states workers if you have posted this review over my prevoius less understood review. Using the synthesizer function creates more than just noises. And I said just because noises are JUST. And I mean that when I am really good and humble with this instrument and program the settings on the synthesizer I created and now have( in addition to the good 14 preset sounds) very good sounds that sound clear from far away even more than they do from close up. That is the testimony of the Lords perfect happiness through every intrument that is good and humble and dont try to create over powered sounds. Over powered sounds are not what I want anymore because they damage peace and happiness over the heart. Go try a pss 680 yamaha or any other instrument made well yet not costly or more than 400 dollars and prosper. I recieved my Pss 680 for only 70 dollars and it sounds just as good as a instrument for 900 dollars. That said is what the magic is all about.

|Muffy St. Bernard a part-time user from Canada writes:
Sometimes having limited equipment can force you to be creative. Until I moved to software synths, the PSS-680 was the only keyboard I had, and though (as others have said) the bass sort of stinks, you can still get some cool buzzy sounds out of it...especially if you run it through an effects processor. Don't bother with the preset sounds...try adding a long attack to the modulator to get ambient, grating spookiness. Take advantage of the real-time editing features when you're playing drones. I used to use the sequencer to trigger my sampler and it did nicely as a little drum machine. In short, I view it as a quick sound generator that MUST be run through processors before it sounds cool (with enough reverb even the drum pads are useful). And the realtime sound editing can make for some great effects!

An Apple patent (number 20120069517) shows that future iOS devices may sport more glass components. The patent is for a handheld computing device that includes an enclosure having structural walls formed from a glass material that can be radio-transparent.
The enclosure can be formed from a hollow glass tube or two glass members bonded together. A laser frit bonding process may be used to hermetically seal the two glass members together to create a water resistant electronic device.
Here's Apple's summary of the invention: "In recent years, portable electronic devices, such as laptop computers, tablet computers, PDAs, media players, and cellular phones, have become compact and lightweight yet powerful. As manufacturers have been able to fabricate various operational components of these devices in smaller sizes, the devices themselves have become smaller.

2007 Nobel Peace Prize

Solar ultraviolet radiation (UVR) exposure causes a range of health impacts. Globally, excessive solar UVR exposure has caused the loss of approximately 1.5 million disability-adjusted life years (DALYs) (0.1% of the total global burden of disease) and 60,000 premature deaths in the year 2000. The greatest burdens result from UVR-induced cortical cataracts, cutaneous malignant melanoma, and sunburn (although the latter estimates are highly uncertain due to the paucity of data) (Prüss-Üstün et al., 2006). UVR exposure may weaken the immune response to certain vaccinations, which would reduce their effectiveness. However, there are also important health benefits: exposure to radiation in the ultraviolet B frequency band is required for the production of vitamin D in the body. Lack of sun exposure may lead to osteomalacia (rickets) and other disorders caused by vitamin D deficiencies.
Climate change will alter human exposure to UVR exposure in several ways, although the balance of effects is difficult to predict and will vary depending on location and present exposure to UVR. Greenhouse-induced cooling of the stratosphere is expected to prolong the effect of ozone-depleting gases, which will increase levels of UVR reaching some parts of the Earth's surface (Beggs, 2005; IPCC/TEAP, 2005). Climate change will alter the distribution of clouds which will, in turn, affect UVR levels at the surface. Higher ambient temperatures will influence clothing choices and time spent outdoors, potentially increasing UVR exposure in some regions and decreasing it in others. If immune function is impaired and vaccine efficacy is reduced, the effects of climate-related shifts in infections may be greater than would occur in the absence of high UVR levels (Zwander, 2002; de Gruijl et al., 2003; Holick, 2004; Gallagher and Lee, 2006; Samanek et al., 2006).
