Taxi Council endorse Coward Punch campaign message
NSW Premier Barry O'Farrell has announced that the NSW Taxi Council has thrown its support behind the public education campaign against drug and alcohol-related violence.
Mr O'Farrell said the NSW Taxi Council initiative means Danny Green's "one punch can ruin lives" ad will be displayed on the backs of 75 taxis across Sydney.
"I congratulate the Taxi Council for being part of this campaign and promoting cultural change around drug and alcohol abuse," Mr O'Farrell said.
"Danny Green's ad sends the powerful message that drug and alcohol-fuelled violence can ruin lives.
"Taxi drivers are on the frontline and have themselves become the target of mindless thugs – they know more than anyone the importance of changing society's attitude to alcohol and drug abuse."
Taxi Council CEO Roy Wakelin-King said "If these new laws and this campaign reduces drug and alcohol-related violence, it will not only be good for the NSW community but for taxi drivers as well.
"It is clear that the community has had enough of drug and alcohol-fuelled violence and we are committed to doing our bit to make a difference," Mr Wakelin-King said.
Mr O'Farrell also announced advertising companies JC Decaux, Val Morgan and oOh Media had approached the NSW Government to donate advertising space, which means the Danny Green ads will feature on 50 citylight panels in and around Kings Cross, as well as screens in pubs and clubs and at petrol pumps.

Cameron, Louisiana
The Cameron liquefied natural gas (LNG) terminal is designed to accommodate two 250,000-cubic-meter LNG bulk carriers. Initially designed using a generic cast-in-place concrete pile cap system, the unloading platforms at the terminal support the LNG loading arms and the crew pedestal. BergerABAM tailored the design of the two platforms by working closely in the early stages of design with the marine contractor to develop a framing system that optimized the use of the available heavy-lift equipment to provide additional savings to the client.

The Maharashtra State Consumer Disputes Redressal Commission made the observation while bringing to book a builder who refused to hand over a flat to a buyer after she delayed making the scheduled payments.
The commission ordered builder Nitin D Patel to refund Rs 40.07 lakh paid by the complainant Tillottama Patade.
Patel was also ordered to pay Rs 21 lakh in interest and a Rs 2.25 lakh compensation. The complainant's prayer for possession of the flat could not be allowed as it was already sold to a third party.
Patade had booked the 568 sq ft flat in Borivli east for around Rs 40 lakh in 2009 and made various payments. Patade said that after failing to provide the necessary documents, the builder demanded the amount with a 24% interest. She paid a total of Rs 40 lakh but could not pay the interest. The builder threatened to terminate the agreement after which the woman moved the commission.
The commission held that the woman was only demanding the necessary documents to facilitate the availing of loans from the financial institutions.

I Am Chris Farley Documentary
Live fast and die young, that is the mantra of a large number of people in the public eye. Over the years, we've lost a seemingly countless number of celebrities who embodied this concept. Car accidents took the lives of celebrities like Paul Walker, Princess Diana, James Dean, Ryan Dunn, and Jackson Pollock. Drugs and alcohol claimed the lives of Heath Ledger, Philip Seymour Hoffman, Amy Winehouse, River Phoenix, Whitney Houston, and the man we're here to talk about, The Beverly Hills Ninja himself, Chris Farley.
Christopher Crosby "Chris" Farley lost his battle with substance abuse on December 18th, 1997. Chris was an American actor and comedian that was known for his energetic and wild comedic style. He was a staple on stage with Chicago's Second City Theater and spent 5 years (from 1990 to 1995) performing on Saturday Night Live alongside Chris Rock, Adam Sandler, Rob Schneider, David Spade, and more. While he enjoyed improv and sketch comedy, he also acted in a number of wildly successful films such as Wayne's World, Coneheads, Billy Madison, Tommy Boy, Black Sheep, Dirty Work, and Almost Heroes, the last of which was his final starring role. Farley battled substance abuse for years and it ultimately ended up costing the man his life.
Some may not be aware that Farley was actually the original Shrek. He had recorded roughly 80-90% of his lines, but passed away just before the voice acting work was finished.
In the documentary titled, "I am Chris Farley," we hear candid interviews from coworkers, family, and friends as they share their heartfelt remorse and sadness over the loss of the loveable, funny man. The film was released on the 27th of July, 2015, and can be purchased from iTunes or on VirgilFilms. Currently, the film is rated 7.5 out of 10 on IMDB from over 2,000 members. Give it a watch, we guarantee you'll enjoy it. Wherever you ended up Mr. Farley, we hope you've found a van down by a river.

The BMW F80 M3 already has its fair share of fans worldwide despite the BMW F82 M4 Coupe being regarded as the better looking brother. The M3, and M4 for that matter, combines power, driving dynamics and every day practicality in a single package.
Both these cars are powered by the same 3.0 liter BMW TwinPower Turbo engine, delivering 425 horsepower to the rear wheels. The cars have an impressive acceleration times of under 4.0 seconds for the 0-62mph (0-100km/h) runs!
Overall, the BMW M3 is definitely a wise choice for people that want the four doors for their performance vehicles.
This particular BMW M3 has been equipped with custom forged aftermarket wheels, which, together with the carbon fiber parts added, provide an aggressive accentuation for the exterior design. The wheels are made by PUR Wheels, the PUR RS07 line, with sizes of 20×9 and 20×11 front and rear, and painted with a Textured Bronze finish. The cars have been lowered and the wheels look gorgeous with the matte blue exterior.
Additionally, this BMW F80 M3 gets a few high-quality carbon fiber parts installed on its body. Courtesy of Exotics Tuning, this aero upgrade consists of a front carbon fiber spoiler matched with carbon fiber side skirts, finished off with a carbon fiber rear diffuser as well.
Please take a look at the additional images from this photoshoot in the gallery right below.

In my math classes one of my main goals is to make math understandable and relatable. So often the subject is approached with fear and anxiety because it seems abstract and incomprehensible. I think one of the main contributors to this mindset is the way math is taught. While it is a subject that requires rote memorization at times, I am a firm believer in the importance of understanding the concepts the students learn in addition to the ability to complete the process correctly.
Some of my favorite topics to teach are fractions and pi. I find that students, and adults, learn, and remember, when the events surrounding the lesson are memorable. Learning also becomes more meaningful when it is directly related to life or can be seen in concrete examples. When I teach adding and subtracting fractions I have the kids act out a story as I narrate. They are characters in the skit and act out a series of word problems. The more exciting the story the more they get into their characters whether it be 1/5 or 1/10. When they are later struggling with a problem I can remind them of the time that they were a spy named 1/10 who had to meet up with their friend 1/10 and together there were 2/10.
One of my favorite days this year was definitely Pi day (March 14 – 3/14). Many of my older students in grades 4-6 had worked with pi before when talking about circumference and area of a circle. My third graders had not yet studied pi, but all my students could benefit from a deeper understanding of pi. I placed a series of circular objects around the room. Each student was given a string and a ruler to measure the circumference and then diameter of the objects. As the students divided each circumference by their respective diameter it was awesome to watch realization and interest dawn on their face as each answer seemed eerily similar. In each class we had a great discussion about why all the answers to the each problem were almost identical.
I am consistently impressed with my students' interest in math, determination, and eagerness to learn more. It is a joy to help build the foundation for each of my students in such a fundamental subject.
Lydia Staats has been teaching 5th and 6th graders on the Beverly campus since September 2015.

Enlarged members a 'hindrance during training'
Papuans whose todgers have been unnaturally enhanced are as of right now barred from joining the police on the grounds that such members are a "hindrance during training".
According to local media, Papua police chief Bekto Suprapto confirmed that an aspiring plod "will be asked whether or not his vital organ has been enlarged".
He added: "If he has, he will be considered unfit to join the police or the military."
A sexologist explained to the Jakarta Globe that locals wishing to acquire a more impressive appendage wrap their wedding tackle in leaves from the gatal-gatal (itchy) tree, causing it to expand "like it has been stung by a bee".
The Papuan police did not explain quite how they deal with those applicants who are naturally talented in the trouser department. ®

Base metals advance as trade worries weaken U.S. dollar
By Mai Nguyen
SINGAPORE, Aug 6 (Reuters) - London base metals rose on Tuesday, as the U.S. dollar weakened after Washington labelled Beijing a currency manipulator, marking a sharp escalation in the year-long trade dispute between the two economies.
A weaker dollar makes greenback-denominated metals cheaper for users of other currencies.
However, gains were capped as rising tensions between the United States and China threatened global economic growth and demand for metals.
The U.S. Treasury Department said on Monday it had determined for the first time since 1994 that China was manipulating its currency, knocking the U.S. dollar sharply lower and sending China's offshore yuan to a record low.
Three-month copper on the London Metal Exchange was up 0.1% at $5,691 a tonne, as of 0704 GMT, reversing a five-day losing streak, while Shanghai copper edged up 0.4% to 46,150 yuan ($6,565.75) a tonne.
"In August, we see prices trading between $5,520-$5,950; as we head deeper into the mid-5's," said INTL FCStone's independent commodity consultant Edward Meir in a note.
* PRICES: London aluminium edged up 0.1%, nickel rose 0.2% and zinc advanced 0.8%. In Shanghai, aluminium rose 0.3%, nickel jumped 2.2%, while zinc increased 0.3%.
* NICKEL: A top Indonesian mining ministry official said on Monday he did not want to speculate on whether the government might bring forward a planned ban on mineral ore exports from 2022.
* LEAD: Supply disruptions and historically low inventories are unlikely to mean shortages of the auto battery metal lead due to sliding demand in top consumer China, where growth is under pressure because of the U.S.-China trade dispute.
* COPPER: Proposed U.S. tariffs against the European Union over aircraft subsidies could concentrate market control over some supplies of copper alloy in the hands of a German-owned firm and hurt American businesses, U.S. industry players said.
* LYNAS: Malaysia plans to extend Lynas Corp's licence to operate a rare earths processing plant, though it could be for a shorter duration than the usual three years, two sources with direct knowledge of the matter said.
* BHP/NICKEL: BHP Group is expanding its nickel business and plans to ramp up sales for the fast-growing electric vehicle sector, Asset President Eddie Haegel said on Monday.
* RUSAL: Russian aluminium producer Rusal suspended operations at its Achinsk alumina plant on Monday and evacuated all but essential staff after a fire broke out a nearby Russian military base, Rusal said.

Ken Is In!
By Greg L | 31 March 2008 | Virginia Politics | 5 Comments
It's official! — Ken Cuccinelli is running for Attorney General. Good luck and Godspeed!
Northern Virginia Senator Touts Conservative Principles; Effective Leadership
Fairfax, Virginia, March 31, 2008 – State Senator Ken Cuccinelli (R-37th) today announced his bid for Attorney General of Virginia.
Cuccinelli framed this year as a time of exploration for his statewide campaign, to include a listening tour across the Commonwealth.
Cuccinelli noted that it has been nearly twenty years since Republicans had a Northern Virginian on their statewide ticket. He observed that with Bob McDonnell and Bill Bolling as likely standard-bearers for the GOP next year, he is in an ideal position to complete his party's team: "This would be a ticket with a record of fighting for Virginia families and businesses, representing the three most populous parts of the Commonwealth," Cuccinelli commented.
Cuccinelli said "I believe that I can win in November 2009 because I stand strongly for conservative principles and I have proven that I can explain them in a way that demonstrates to your average Virginia family that I can make a positive difference in their daily lives." Cuccinelli went on to list some examples, cutting red tape, fighting tax increases, protecting liberties while keeping families and children safe, and fighting government waste and focusing spending on core responsibilities like transportation, education and law enforcement.
The Senator, a veteran of three successful campaigns in Northern Virginia, described himself as being firmly in the GOP mainstream: "I have always stayed true to the conservative principles that I have advertised in my campaigns, and that is simply because I am a conservative at heart. It's not just positions, it's who I am. I am unapologetically pro-life and anti-tax, and I have been the biggest defender of the 2nd Amendment and property rights in the Virginia State Senate since my arrival. And I have done all this in some of the toughest political territory for a conservative, not merely in Northern Virginia, but in inner Northern Virginia, right here in Fairfax County – the single biggest vote prize in a statewide race."
Cuccinelli drew attention to his statewide donor base and extensive support from "low dollar" contributors and grassroots activists, who are typically considered the backbone of a successful campaign. He noted that he has always won his races despite being outspent due to efficient, high energy and volunteer-intensive campaigns. Cuccinelli stated his intention to "run a campaign that the founding fathers would be proud of. A campaign that consistently applies conservative principles to today's pressing issues."
Cuccinelli invited support for his race and pledged to bring his conservative principles to the way he operates the Attorney General's office. He praised Bob McDonnell's efforts to review the Virginia code and cut back on outdated or in-effective regulations. Cuccinelli indicated he would expand that effort to examine under-performing and obsolete state programs.
A litigation, business and patent attorney and partner in the law firm of Cuccinelli & Day, PLLC, Cuccinelli was first elected to the Senate of Virginia in a 2002 special election. He serves on the Senate Courts of Justice Committee and has worked closely with the Attorney General's office on key public safety and public interest legislation.
Cuccinelli was the chief architect of 2007 legislation tightening protections for private property owners and strictly defining the circumstances where the government's eminent domain power may be used. The Northern Virginia Senator also has a passion for helping those who, in his words, "through no fault of their own, are unable to help themselves." He was an integral part of crafting this year's mental health system reform package, a subject on which he has submitted legislation since 2004.

I live in Fairfax City and not in his district, but have been following
his career for years and wishing we had a politician like him.
I fully intend to work for his campaign even if its stuffing envelopes
and knocking on my neighbors doors.
Go Ken, GO!!

It would be better if Ken Cuccinelli returned the $15,900 which he raised in 2002 from officials of the raided Safa Group. cf. http://www.archives2005.ghazali.net/html/three_years_after.html
The most problematic Cuccinelli donation is the $700 which Cuccinelli accepted from the radical local imam Taha J. Al-Alwani on 7/31/02. cf. http://vpap.org/donors/results_level3.cfm?fmkey=INP000281971&tokey=COM00646&Year=2002
Al-Alwani was "unindicted co-conspirator #5″ at the 2006 trial of the now-convicted terrorist Sami Al-Arian. cf. http://www.sptimes.com/2003/03/27/Worldandnation/Muslim_linked_to_Al_A.shtml
There cannot be any justification in 2008 for Cuccinelli to keep the Al-Alwani donation. Sami Al-Arian is behind bars and Al-Alwani's funding of Al-Arian's Islamic Jihad front is demonstrated in court documents filed by prosecutors during the Al-Arian trial. The prosecutors felt that Al-Alwani's relationship with Al-Arian was significant enough for them to mention it in their indictment of Al-Arian.
If the radical imam Taha J. Al-Alwani is an example of the support that Cuccinelli seeks then maybe Cuccinelli does not deserve the support of BVBL readers. You don't want an AG taking calls from campaign contributors such as Taha J. Al-Alwani.

RIYADH, April 30 — Saudi officials confirmed on Sunday that they had sheltered three widows and reportedly eleven children of the late number one terrorist Osama bin Laden, Saudi Press Agency (SPA) reported.
"Saudi Arabia acted out of humanitarian considerations… so far as there are no reports or evidence of their implication in criminal or illegal acts," SAP said quoting Saudi official spokesman as saying.
The spokesman also said the group had been greeted by their numerous relatives as they arrived in Jeddah by a private jet on Thursday night.
Bin Ladens family is one of the most influential in Saudi business circles. Saudi Binladen Group, largest kingdoms industrial holding was found in 1955 by Mohammed Binladin. Osama bin Laden was believed to be Mohammeds 17th son.
Bin Ladens three wives and 11 children were detained by Pakistani authorities immediately after the secret raid of U.S. commandos on his hideout in the northwestern town of Abbottabad on May 2, 2011.
Bin Laden, who was behind the 9/11 attacks against the United States, was killed in the raid and his compound was demolished in February.
The three widows were sentenced on April 2 to 45 days of house arrest for living in Pakistan illegally. Their detention ended last week. (PNA/RIA Novosti) DCT/ebp

This collection of poetry is the saga of life in all of its colors – joy, sorrow, triumph, love and pain. The book is a beautiful collection of heart-touching poems, drawn from my personal experiences in life. While 'Mother, my ode to you', conveys how a mother continues to guide and inspire her child in every way in life's struggles, 'Strength' lifts up the downcast spirit with life's historical triumphs and wins. 'Break free' is about the dark vicissitudes of practical life and how the protagonist wants freedom from life's falsities and hypocrisies. 'Thinking of you, my love' is about the love-filled thoughts kindled for the beloved while in 'He comes..' the protagonist wonders if she really deserves the new-found love in her life and doubts her destiny which has been unkind to her earlier. Quite on the same lines of 'He comes..' is 'She espies..' where she doubts her waning beauty in attracting her man, preferring to languish for him in her dreams.

Looking For Help From Wiring Gurus
craaaazzy replied to craaaazzy's topic in BMW 2002 and other '02so here's the GSL-SE EM. the items highlighter are where i would pull the wires for the 12v Ignition, Clutch Switch (although it's been told to me i could just ground this and not have to use the clutch to start the car), and Neutral Switch: here's the wiring for the MAP, since i do not have the F harness of the REW, I could simply get the 2 wires from the EM harness and G/Y would go to pin 1O on the PowerFC: the one that's confusing to me at the moment is the CAS. reading the instructions on installing a PowerFC into an FC, the FC CAS "G" wire is the G+ signal while "R" is the NE+ signal. but looking at the pinout for the FC ECU, it looks like it should be the "L" and "W" wires. here's the pic (background is the REW CAS wiring, middle is the FC CAS wiring, and foreground is the FC CAS pinout on the ECU): and here's another section from the PowerFC into an FC guide that also adds to my confusion: "Remember, on the CAS side, the red and the green wires are signal wires, where as the two black wires are ground. On the harness side, the colour will change! Now we need to look at the black white wire (the should join the red, green on the CAS wiring) and not for the red green, at the red green on the loom side is connected to the ground (the two black wires on the CAS)."
hi guys, it's been a while since i've visited this forum since i no longer have the 02 but this community has always been very helpful to me in the past so i come here looking for help one more time. i am looking for someone who is really good at reading wiring diagrams to make sure i'm understanding/deciphering some diagrams correctly. if you'd be willing to help, can you email me please at craaaazzy at gmail. thanks.

thanks VMSETHAN, never seen those tools before, pretty nice. i looked at both eastwood and harbor freight and it's just not wise for me to buy a tool i will probably use only once. as for supplies and templates, i haven't bought anything just yet as i was still trying to figure out how to build the plug. i know you bolted your down to the body itself which is what i am trying to avoid myself. i'd like to use the existing hardware on my sunroof so i may be able to pop it off easily, thus i would need the aluminum angle stock to keep the shape. sorry to clutter your build thread. shoot me an email and i can send you some pics of what i am talking about. thanks. -fred
Can u tell me the technique used to shrink the aluminum angle? Am interested in order to do lexan as a sunroof plug. Doable for a backyard mechanic or requires someone of your ability to accomplish? Thanks.

Agentless APT Scans
Need to scan for APTs but don't want to deploy an agent?
One of THOR's major advantages is, that it is highly flexible and you can run it in so many different ways. Although we recommend to control your scans centrally with ASGARD Management Center, it is not required in order to get solid scan results.
THOR itself is just a binary that you execute on the system that you want to analyse. It does not require you to install anything such as runtime environments or agents.
Here is list of options that we see our customers using when deploying an agent is not an option:
- run THOR manually from a USB drive
- run THOR manually from a mapped network share.
- scheduled a task through the GPO for all your Domain members and run THOR automatically from a network share
- run THOR through any enterprise administrative framework. Remember, it is just a binary that needs to run on your target system.
For collecting the logs there are two options. One is sending the scan results through syslog. The other one is writing log files locally. If you are scanning from a central network share, collecting the logs through another share is a nice and convenient option.

Two descriptions of the image of a web structure, a convolution model and an additive model, in both the spatial and frequency domains, are combined in the design of a method to extract information about the fabric structure by image analysis. The method allows the extraction of the conventional and also the minimal weave repeats, their size in terms of number of threads, their interlacing patterns, and their patterns of repetition. It is applicable to fabrics with square and nonsquare conventional weave repeat. Experimental results with images of real samples are presented and discussed.

Ziac Dosage
The recommended starting dosage of Ziac for the treatment of high blood pressure is typically 2.5 mg/6.25 mg once a day. If your blood pressure does not improve, your healthcare provider may increase this amount up to a maximum of 20 mg/12.5 mg daily. If you were taking bisoprolol and hydrochlorothiazide separately, your healthcare provider will switch you to the equivalent Ziac dose.
The dose of Ziac® (bisoprolol and hydrochlorothiazide) your healthcare provider recommends will vary, depending on a number of factors, including:
- The severity of your high blood pressure
- How you respond to Ziac
- Other medications you are taking
- Other medical conditions you may have.
As is always the case, do not adjust your dosage unless your healthcare provider specifically instructs you to do so.
Recommended Ziac DosageFor most people, the starting Ziac dose for the treatment of high blood pressure is 2.5 mg/6.25 mg once daily (this provides 2.5 mg of bisoprolol and 6.25 mg of hydrochlorothiazide). If necessary, your healthcare provider may increase this amount up to a maximum of 20 mg/12.5 mg once daily.
Of course, if you are switching from bisoprolol and hydrochlorothiazide taken separately, your healthcare provider will just switch you to the equivalent dose of Ziac.
For people with kidney disease, liver disease, or breathing problems such as asthma or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), a lower starting dosage of Ziac may be recommended.
As with all beta blockers, you should not abruptly stop taking Ziac, as serious problems (including heart attacks) may result. Your healthcare provider will advise you about how to safely stop taking this medication. People are generally advised to slowly reduce the dose over time, with careful monitoring, and to minimize physical activity. Let your healthcare provider know if you develop chest pain or any other problems while stopping treatment.

I am a Chartered Clinical Psychologist who has worked clinically for over ten years in a range of NHS and private settings with individuals, couples and families at various different life stages.
I am experienced in helping people to explore and manage a range of issues including:
I have a particular interest in working with people for whom there is an interaction between their physical and mental health, and exploring issues such as loss, guilt, changes in role, body image or physical functioning is central to my current role in a NHS general hospital. Helping people to examine where psychological factors such as personality style or stress drive their behaviour can be useful in opening up alternative ways of approaching problems or coping.
I am also passionate about helping groups and organisations think psychologically about complex issues such as emotional resilience in schools or promoting psychological wellbeing in settings such as hospitals or residential homes.
As a Clinical Psychologist I am trained to select and utilise a range of assessment tools and integrate information from various sources such as psychological tests, self-report measures, rating scales, observations and clinical interviews depending on the purpose of the assessment. The assessment may take place over several sessions depending on the degree of complexity. It will focus on understanding your current situation, and explore how and when problems developed.
The formulation is a key part of the psychological process, and involves integrating the assessment information with psychological theory to provide a framework for describing and understanding your situation. This is where we pull together the relevant bits of your life story and past experiences in order to help us make sense of who you are, and what you do, and highlight where changes, if relevant, might be possible. My training and experience allows me to draw from a number of models of therapy including behavioural, cognitive behavioural (CBT), systemic and psychodynamic therapies. I also utilise ideas from acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), mindfulness, solution focused brief therapy (SFBT) and narrative approaches when useful. My broad and extensive training helps me to tailor specific formulations and treatments plans to you and your personal situation, thus increasing the efficacy of our work.
The intervention, if required, is based on the formulation. For some people having an extended assessment and formulation may be sufficient to help them see the links between factors that cause and maintain their particular difficulties. For others, further sessions, called therapy, may be required to help them to develop alternative ways of coping or responding to their difficulties.

"Structure of protein L7Ae bound to a K-turn derived from an archaeal box H/ACA sRNA at 1.8 A resolution."
Hamma T, Ferre-D'Amare AR
Published 2004-05-01 in Structure volume 12 .
Pubmed ID: 15130481
DOI identifier: -
|The archaeal RNA binding protein L7Ae and its eukaryotic homolog 15.5 kDa/Snu13 recognize K-turns. This structural motif is canonically comprised of two stems (one with tandem A.G base pairs, the other with Watson-Crick pairs) linked by an asymmetric internal loop. L7Ae recognizes conventional K-turns in ribosomal and box C/D RNAs but also binds specifically to some box H/ACA RNAs at terminal stem loops. These have the A.G paired stem, but lack the Watson-Crick stem. The structure of Methanococcus jannaschii L7Ae bound to a symmetric duplex RNA without Watson-Crick stems demonstrates how a binding site for this component of diverse ribonucleoprotein complexes can be constructed with only the A.G stem and the loop. The RNA adopts a functional conformation with the aid of a base triple and tight binding of divalent cations. Comparison with the 15.5 kDa/Snu13-RNA complex structure suggests why the eukaryotic homolog does not recognize terminal stem loop L7Ae binding sites.
This publication refers to following proteins:

Berocca Bribing Bloggers
They've clearly gotten a new marketing person over at Berocca in the past year. Having not really touched TV ads until now, they launched a campaign which is clearly targetted at the blogosphere which featured a slighty embarrassing rip-off of OK Go's "Here It Goes Again" and now they're buying blog posts by launching their "Blogger Relief" campaign. You can register your blog and if they like it they'll send you a box of free stress relieving gizmos.
I don't need to be paid off to thoroughly recommend Berocca – I've been addicted to the stuff for years and it's saved my life countless times, however the odd cheap bribe never hurt anyone.
If that still doesn't convince you, the prospect of luminescent orange pee after a glass always brightens up a dull day (and freaks out anyone else in the public toilet).

The Phoenix Film Festival is one of the few events that makes me, and the city of Phoenix, feel cultured. I'm not saying there aren't fun, "classy" things to do during the year. But this is the one solitary week out of the year that you can see more than one or two foreign films without leaving the valley. It's the only time that the phrase "independent film" isn't used to describe some "quirky off-beat humor" with a B or C list celeb in it.
Instead, the week is dedicated almost entirely to films you wouldn't and couldn't otherwise see. In addition to world and short film competitions, there are even student and local showcases. The last few days of the festival, which we currently find ourselves amidst, or essentially dedicated to winners in various categories. Last night featured several of those winners, including the one for world cinema best director.
Italian director Francesco Campanini's Il Solitario, meaning Solitaire, was an action pieces about Leo Piazza, a high stakes crook tied up with the mob. He goes on a heist -- the one that's supposed to set him up for life. In a mass shoot out, he's the only survivor on either side of the robbery, and must go into hiding in order to save his life. The irony is that while money is no object, he is constantly paying people to protect him, all while living in extremely uncomfortable situations merely to stay alive.

It follows the plot line of most of these types of films. He's always running, and there's always someone just about to catch up with him. Of course, there's a girl involved. The beautiful Saeda, formerly a prostitute, comes to his lone apartment to bring him provisions. While he nearly forces himself on her, of course they fall in love with hardly any dialogue. Though they decide to run away together, you can imagine that things in their lives get complicated and it won't be as easy as they would have thought.
To be honest, the film was a bit disappointing. The music was cliche, as was the story line. The copy of the film that the festival got was of extremely low quality. (So much so in fact that the picture looked unclear and figures and shadows looked clunky.) Also frustrating was that the film had come out in 2008, and somehow it didn't make it to the Phoenix Film Festival for a whole two years. There was a constant reminder of this on screen in the form of a copyright label that hung in the upper left corner the entire time. The translations in the subtitles were full of grammatical errors, and while I'm often pretty understanding of the difficulty in translating both language and ideas cross culturally, it was frustrating.
The thing is that it's hard to understand what and why certain films work in some countries and not others. While I tried to be understanding of the film and my fellow audience members, (who insisted on talking through the last twenty minutes of the film and laughing and inappropriate times throughout...aren't you guys supposed to be the real film buffs who must see non mainstream cinema in an unadulterated context?!?) it was not possible for me to get past the cliches and overdone storyline. While I easily feel sympathy for less than savory characters, I couldn't really make myself like anyone, and the lack of sympathy made it tough to relate to on any level. I would pass on this one, kids.
Stay posted though. I'll be reviewing films tomorrow and Friday, and hopefully will have exciting news to report about Thursday night's event which is a screening of a new film with Luke Wilson. He'll even be in town for it and the subsequent party.

The Bunker Project gathered people's memories of these spaces in and around Cambridge. There were several outcomes to the project, including video footage of the interviews conducted, a website displaying our research and an exhibition in collaboration with the Cambridge Library Cambridgeshire Collection.
In the course of meeting people and sharing memories, something we became fascinated by was the extensive system of exercises that rehearsed 'post-attack scenarios' during the Cold War. These drills trained a wide variety of personnel, from volunteers in the Royal Observer Corps to local government workers, in a variety of tasks to enable the continued functioning of government administration, for the purposes of coordinating rescue, where possible, across the UK.
The project culminated in a performance event at The Junction, and catalysed the ideas for the project that became 3rd Ring Out.

Are your XA Resources slowing you down?
ThomasBien 060001PQVD Visits (9779)
Global coordination is very useful in WebSphere Message Broker (WMB) when needing to ensure that all parts of a transaction complete together. WebSphere MQ does a great job of acting as a transaction manager for WMB. However, when configuring XA, it is essential that we coordinate only the resources we need.
When an XA transaction is committed, your transaction resource manager will go down its list of resources and commit each of them. While each resource is informed, a small delay is incurred. In situations where there are a large number of resources, this could very quickly add up to a large delay, which may negatively impact processing.
If you are seeing poor performance with your XA enabled message flows, take a second to look at your WebSphere MQ Queue Manager's qm.ini file and review your list of XA stanzas. If you have several resources configured, you may want to investigate some changes:
You may find a significant improvement to your transaction speeds by removing outdated resource stanzas, or even moving to a queue manager with fewer external resource commitments. For one broker, we found that we saved 5 seconds - per transaction!

restorative dentistry
We are a mercury-free practice. However, many people still have silver/mercury fillings in their mouths from years past. These fillings are not particularly pleasing to the eye, and we know that by unavoidable design, silver/mercury fillings ultimately result in a weaker tooth structure. Tooth-Colored (Composite) restorations create fillings that are not only beautiful (or unnoticeable) but also add strength to weakened teeth. These restorations are esthetically pleasing and very strong thanks to new bonding technologies.
Disadvantages of silver fillings
Silver fillings have many drawbacks. The edges of the silver filling can wear down, become weak or break. This results in the tooth not being protected and lets cavities get started once again. With age, the metal of a silver filling expands, contracts, and can split. Silver fillings can contain up to 50 percent mercury. They can corrode, leak and cause stains on your teeth and gums. Fortunately, defective silver fillings can safely be replaced with Tooth-Colored Restorations.
Advantages of tooth-colored restorations
There are many advantages to tooth-colored (composite) restorations. Color-matched composite material is bonded to the teeth creating a tight, superior fit to the natural tooth. Such restorations can be used in instances where much of the tooth structure has been lost. The tooth remains intact and stronger. Since the resin used in tooth-colored restorations contain fluoride this can help prevent decay. The resin wears like natural teeth! The result is a beautiful smile!
Replacing silver fillings with a tooth colored restoration
At Premier Dental Care, you can have your defective silver fillings replaced with tooth-colored (composite) restorations. This process can be completed is a single visit! Your teeth are restored to a natural look and feel, they are stronger and the tooth is protected!

Last summer I wrote about how I used some agile principles and practices to handle three problems we faced when living four families together in a small summer house. You can find that blog post here. When my vacation started, I spent some time thinking on improvements for this year's stay (bringing together in total 19 persons). When everybody arrived I had prepared some new "tools" for self-organization, with the Planning Board as the major new idea!
These are the "tools" we used
The Planning Board
The planning last year was compelled of a to-do list, and a schedule for the daily meals put up on the most central place in the house (i.e., the fridge :)). This set up worked well enough, but I wanted to improve it this year, and ended up with the Planning Board as shown in the picture above. It's a matrix for each day in the week (that consisted of our stay in the summer house) with time slots (before lunch, lunch, afternoon, dinner and evening). To fit on the fridge the largest pager I could use was in A3 format, so I had to do my own stickies to be able to fit it all (cutting pieces of paper and using tape). As you may recall, ruler, scissors and tape are amongst my favorite agile tools! 🙂
Above is a picture of the completed planning board, before any stickies were added. As you can see, I took the opportunity to make it colorful. Some additional information was also added to the board.
Below you can see the planning board, before the week started placed on the fridge (as said, the most central place in the house, where everybody passes several times a day).
A sticky on the planning board represented an initiative. Maybe we could have used the word activity as well, but initiative felt better and more generic to fit our purpose. Each initiative had a driver (marked with "D: <Name/s>") on the sticky. The driver was the main responsible person for the initiative. Some initiatives regarded all persons, so they were marked with "D: All".
Some of the initiatives were given from previous years (like some shorter trips we like to do), so I added them before the week started to the planning board.
So could anyone just add an initiative? The answer here is both yes and no! Yes, because there were no rules for who could add a new initiative and no because some "secret rules of self-organization" applied. I will explain them now. First, the driver needed sponsor(s) for the initiative. I.e. person/s that agreed and would "join in". Since most of the initiatives didn't involve any major costs, finding sponsor(s) for the driver was pretty easy ("Shall we do this? Yes, that sounds like an good idea, let us add that to the planning board."). A few initiatives involved cost, and they had to be funded, i.e. agreed upon with the owner of the summer house.
"The flyer"
To communicate about the initiative the driver in some cases used a flyer. Those didn't fit on the fridge so we used a door for that. On the flyer the following information was stated:
- Name of the initiative
- Short description of the initiative
- Name of the driver(s)
- A motto
- If participation was mandatory or not (the children put up a show every year, and attendance to that is always mandatory 🙂 )
- Preferred time for the initiative (maybe if it was best suited as an evening activity)
- An inspiring picture
- Additional information.
The door
Here you can see the door in the beginning of the week with five flyers added. The door also contained some feedback boards, that gave the opportunity for anyone that wanted, to give feedback (whether it was positive, negative or suggestions for improvements).
The planning meeting
After the dinner when all the participants had arrived, we held a planning meeting. At the meeting, this years new "tools" were explained and we also did the first version of the planning (i.e., putting up all the stickies) on the planning board. Later some stickies changed back and forth during the week, mainly because some of them were weather sensitive. So the planning was like a guideline that we could follow, not rigid, and given the possibility to be flexible. This worked out really well during the week!
With the "tools" describe above the ecosystem was set enough to allow for self-organization! No-one was forced to do an initiative. Naturally the driver started and others would "dig in". This worked out really well during the week!
Hey, so you mean no problems at all occurred? Well yes, of course some problems occurred and needed to be sorted out. Mainly those discussions were handled by the four siblings (representing the four families). They came to an agreement in consensus, and in all cases I am aware of, everyone else aligned to that decision. Metaphorically, you can see this as the driver seeking sponsors to fund the initiative.
What happened?
Initiatives (a lot of them)
A lot of initiatives, with high commitment and value! It felt like more activity than previous year. New initiatives emerged during the week (I'm super happy with this, that showed that the ecosystem for self-organization really worked). Here is an example: One of the first evenings, an adult conducted a music quiz, following evenings many of the children held there own quizzes (with their music, almost impossible for the adults to guess :)). Another example is building of a new porch for one of the smaller houses. This was an initiative that kept going "in the background" during several days of the week (first to tear down the old porch, get rid of that, and then building the new).
Committed drivers (most of them)
In most cases, pin pointing a driver was really beneficial for the initiative, and the outcome was much better than leaving this with "handled by whom it concern". For one initiative I had higher hopes on the driver. In reflection maybe I should have taken a step back to get more involvement (I produced the flyer for this initiative, while not being the driver).
Very little arguments or problems occurred during the week (less than previous year). All the people were aligned in terms of them knowing what was going on (a child knowing what day the Aqualand visit is planned, to an adult knowing who is responsible for making the dinner). The whole week was pretty much smooth sailing all the way!
Agile things we used
Open Space
If you are unfamiliar with Open Space, you can read more about it here. Basically I thought of the week like a long open space where initiatives (instead of topics) where put into time-slots.
The Planning board and the feedback boards are examples of visualizations.
Feedback door
Jurgen Appelo have come up with the idea of a feedback door. That inspired me to our door, as seen in the picture below (depicted after the week had ended).
Planning meeting
Like the sprint planning meeting (in Scrum), we had a planning meeting with all participants to get understanding and alignment.
I got some new inspiration regarding self-organization from reading the book "Team of Teams", which is may latest book review that you can find here.
Reading the feedback that was given about the week, it seems like a success (the only thing people complained about, was the weather – which wasn't as good as it can be). I'm happy that everything I've set up worked out well, and that we improved from last year (kaizen – continuous improvements, remember?). It was also great to see the high commitment in the initiatives! Hopefully you now have some "tools" to use when you want to bring structure to many people living together in a limited area during their vacation, or if you can use them in your daily work!
All the best,
Tomas from TheAgileist

The menu at Culford's on Dovehouse Green will be extraordinarily expensive, even for the restaurant's location on the King's Road in Chelsea, west London. Alongside grilled seabass and steak au poivre are a selection of caviars, including 50g of beluga for £250.
The restaurant will also offer a good selection of the menu in pureed form – because Culford's will be the dining hall of the world's most expensive retirement home.
Apartments in the Auriens residence, which is being built on the site of what was Kensington and Chelsea council's only local authority care home, cost a minimum of £3m for a 900 sq ft one bedroom flat rising to £10.5m for two bedroom "penthouses". Residents will also be charged a minimum annual service charge of £16,344 – about double the state pension.
Emma Dent-Coad, Labour MP for Kensington, said the council's decision to sell off the nursing home that stood on the site, was an act of "social cleansing of the elderly".
"Thamesbrook [extra care home] was a place for everyone – those who had no money and those who had lots of money," she said. "It was a very good and happy home, but it is being replaced by a beyond luxury complex that very few people can afford."
Dent-Coad, whose constituency includes the Grenfell Tower site, said the project was indicative of Kensington council's wider disregard for poor residents. "There is a crying need for more social and affordable housing in the borough, but what we're getting is more homes for the super rich," she said.
Local councillor Linda Wade said it was the "most appalling outrage" that the council sold off an "excellent home available for everyone regardless of funds [to replace it with] a home that only ageing oligarchs could afford".
"Just as with Grenfell tower, it is another example of Kensington and Chelsea council's crazy management not recognising or serving the needs of its residents," said Wade, a Liberal Democrat councillor.
Wade said that if Thamesbrook had stayed open some of the older and most vulnerable Grenfell residents – who are still living in hotel rooms – could have been looked after in the home.
For the few who are able to afford it, residents of the 55 Auriens apartments are promised "the most luxurious of retirements", with valet parking, pilates classes, a 15m swimming pool and separate "vitality pool", and a private cinema.
There is also a reading room designed by David Linley (the furniture designer and nephew to the Queen) and gardens created by Chelsea Flower Show winner Andy Sturgeon. The rooms, which cost about £3,000 per sq to buy (more than the cost of some apartments in the Candy Brothers luxury One Hyde Park development), are designed by the company that fitted out Langham's hotel.
Then there are the extras not included in the service fee, such as the in-house pet grooming salon which promises to cater "for every need from taking the dogs for daily walks in nearby parks such as Kensington Gardens or Battersea Park to providing a dog washing service if they return home with muddy paws".
Also not included are nurses, who will be provided by Draycott Nursing at a cost of £40 per hour. Karen Mulville, co-founder of Auriens, conceded that the home is "very expensive" but said choosing to move into the development could be much more economical than staying at the family home and forking out for live-in carers.
"We are clear it is for a very niche market," said Mulville, the wife of comedian Jimmy Mulville whose Hat Trick TV production company created Father Ted and Have I Got News For You? "It is a very small group, but we have had a huge amount of interest."
Ten of the apartments, which are due to open in late 2019, have already been sold. Auriens has converted the former showroom of Bellville Sassoon, the couture label that dressed Diana Princess of Wales, near Sloane Square, into a mock apartment complete with circadian rhythm lighting and carefully positioned Fortnum & Mason groceries.
It is about as far removed from as one can imagine from Thamesbrook, the squat three-storey local authority care home that occupied the Dovehouse Street site until Kensington and Chelsea council sold it for development last spring. The council, which had reserves of more than £270m when the Grenfell fire tragedy happened last summer, said the £70m it made from the sale of Thamesbrook would be used to build 150 new homes for older residents.
The council did not answer questions about how many of the new old people homes had been built or how much of the windfall from the Thamesbrook sale had been spent on the project. The council had already committed to build 100 rooms for older people before it sold Thamesbrook, which was closed following an outbreak of Legionnaires disease in 2014. The council said all Thamesbrook residents were rehoused, but did not respond to questions about where they were sent.
Many of Thamesbrook residents had been moved there when the council closed another of its care homes, Edenham in the north of the borough. Dent-Coad said Edenham residents were "cruelly decanted" into Thamesbrook only to be shunted on again to care homes miles away when it closed.
Dent-Coad said dissenting councillors were unable to stop the development and instead residents "will get a huge lump of ugly building occupied by the super-rich".
Mulville's partner in the Auriens, which is being bankrolled by investment bank Investec, is Johnny Sanderson, a wealthy property developer who specialises in luxury homes for the super-rich. Sanderson's latest scheme for 13 huge multimillion-pound homes overlooking Regent's Park was rejected by Westminster council who told him to "wake-up" and realise that Londoners don't need "oligarch mansions".
The council said four of the homes Sanderson planned for York Terrace East – built by Regency architect John Nash – were "almost nine times bigger than a normal six-bedroom home". The council's planning chief, Richard Beddoe, said: "Our cities golden postcodes must not be used for Monopoly board-style investments to cater only for oligarchs and the most wealthy."

Me, Myself and I: Visually Speaking That is
This week Jordan gives us some history and tips on logo design. Download and use his Logo Development Sheets to create your own logos.
With the advent of television and the Internet, and online communities, we have all become a unique brand. In this article I'm going to show you how you can create your own personal, or familial, logo. A logo is important in branding. It is a visual communication that helps people associate you and your services with a picture.
Communicating visually has been an important part of human history. Dynastic Egypt used a symbol known as a Serekh. A Serekh was created for Royalty. These rectangular hieroglyphs were used to distinguish each ruling family apart. Egyptians placed the god Horus on the top, the name of the reining King in the middle, and the palace of the rule on the bottom. Serekhs were used to relay the necessary message of royal power. Later versions added an epithet within each glyph.
Army units of the Roman Empire painted their shields (also known as a Scutum) distinctive colors and shapes. These colors and shapes made it possible to tell the different military units apart. In Europe, and various other parts of the world, where there has been European influence Arms have been used to identify people, and in some cultures families visually for centuries. Mon, monsh, mondokoro, and kamon are Japanese heraldic symbols. Each family would have a kamon, and the designs were always circular, and involved plants, or abstract designs.
To help people develop their own logo I have created the Logo Development Sheet. This design contains two pages and you can use the link at the end of this article to download the files to your computer. Use Page one to brainstorm ideas for what you want your logo to contain. Use Page two to sketch and draw a rough idea of your logo. In addition, I found the book D.I.Y.: Design It Yourself an enormous help in learning good design techniques.
A logo can be designed in many different ways. You can use text, images or abstract scribblings to create a logo. I suggest that you design your logo in black and white as well as color. Doing so makes your logo more versatile. You might want to design it at the smallest size you think you'll use your logo at, as well. This allows you to make sure that all essential elements are visible.
When I designed my logo, I kept it simple by choosing a few elements that were important to me.
- Computer: I like computers, radios, and technology.
- My initials: To remind my audience of who I am.
- My Scottish Clan Tartan: I am proud of my Scottish heritage and wanted to show this connection. Therefore, in the larger (and color) versions of my logo, I added the tartan to it as well.
I also took my own advice and kept my initial logo in a black and white design because I wanted something simple. I added the color design of my Scottish tartan later. As as result, my logo is very versatile. It's on my website, as well as in the header of my resume. I also added it to any printed materials like my business cards and brochures. I've even used my logo for a QSL card to allow other Ham Radio Operators know who I am.
What you see when you look at my logo? Do you have one of your own? If you have one of your own, what design principles did you use? Feel free to share your designs and thoughts with the rest of us.
I like I well you incorporable so much of yourself in a logo. It is also nice to see another ham here. My husband is AB8OJ and I have no idea who I am because I never get on the air (bad ham).
I'm going to forward this page to my husband.
I've been there
I've been a bad ham too. Finally I decided I wanted to be on the air. I mostly work 2 meters, hitting 1 to 3 nets a week, but it is something.

Kylie Minogue's managers have denied reports of "dramatic weight loss and desperate searches for alternative therapy" as she continues to battle breast cancer.
A statement states the singer, who is being treated in Paris, is "in good spirits and is as healthy as can be expected" and hit out at "the wealth of rumours to the contrary".
Press reports have claimed her weight has dropped to six stone and she plans to see a "holistic medicine guru".
But she did not want fellow cancer sufferers "to be misguided by the false stories regarding her condition and her choice of doctors", the statement from her record company Parlophone said.
The singer, 37, was diagnosed with breast cancer in May and had surgery in her home country before moving to Paris.
Several UK newspapers have reported that she is to visit London-based alternative medicine specialist Nish Joshi, reports the BBC. And internet chat rooms hafe been rife with rumours about Minogue's condition. Joshi was said to have performed the "cupping" treatment, a kind of acupuncture.

Heat Recovery Ventilator (HRV) systems exchange inside air with fresh outside air. They provide required ventilation in your home 24 hours a day, while recapturing a significant amount of heat that would otherwise be lost.
Do I need an HRV system?
Good indoor air quality is essential to good health. Construction products in new Comox valley homes can off-gas for up to five years. Without proper ventilation and filtration, health problems can occur.
Significant changes have been made to ventilation requirements in the BC Building Code for houses and small buildings. All homes now require fresh outdoor air to be distributed in each bedroom and living area. They also require an exhaust system to continuously exhaust air 24 hours a day, based on the size of your living space and the number of bedrooms.
These requirements protect your health and the structural integrity of your home. There are four ways to tackle allergies, off gassing and other air quality issues:
1. ventilation through a forced air system;
2. ventilation through a heat recovery ventilator (HRV) system;
3. ventilation through a central recirculating ventilator (CRV) system; and
4. ventilation through passive inlets
An independently distributed heat recovery ventilation system is the most energy efficient choice.
Why install a Heat Recovery Ventilator system in your home?
• An HRV system provides fresh air to your home 24 hours a day.
• An HRV system improves climate control.
• An HRV system saves energy, and therefore money.
• An HRV system works on its own distribution system OR with a forced air heating system.
• An HRV system transfers heat from indoor air before it is released.
• An HRV system protects the structural integrity of your home.
• HRV systems are environmentally friendly with no ozone emissions!
Why choose Temprite for your Heat Recovery Ventilator system?
At Temprite Climate Solutions, we staff Thermal Environmental Comfort Association (TECA) certified technicians. Our friendly, professional staff is rigorously trained to BC Building Code standards.
We can design, sign off and stamp the right heat recovery ventilator system for your home. The earlier we are involved in the building process, the less chance of unexpected or additional costs in bringing the ventilation system to meet today's standards.
Do you have questions about ventilation requirements in the BC Building Code, or about HRV systems in general? We're always happy to hear from you. Contact us by email or call us directly at 250-465-2490.

VIJAYAWADA: A pedestrian was killed and three others were severely injured in a road accident at Pedana village in Krishna District in the wee hours of Sunday.
The police identified the deceased as Vaddi Ramakrishna (56), a fruit merchant. According to an eyewitness, the mishap occurred when an APSRTC bus driver lost control over the vehicle and rammed onto the pavement. The bus was traveling to Rajahmundry from Machilipatnam.
Sub Inspector A Ganesh Kumar said, "We are investigating whether the accident took place due to the driver's fault. IPC 337 and 302 has been slapped against the driver."
