For the current transponder operating schedule visit http://www.amsat-dl.org/journal/adlj-p3d.htm
Status: Currently, the U/L-1 to S-2/K passband is active (various times)
AO-40 experimental transponder operation started on May 05, 2001 at approximately 08:00 UTC when the U-band and L1-band uplinks were connected to the S-2 transmitter passband downlink via the matrix switch.
The command team has taken a set of images which just manage to capture the earth in one corner of the field of view and allow us to calculate ALON / ALAT as below. This is a good ALAT to provide power and protect the cameras from direct sunlight. Therefore, we have terminated the station keeping magnetorque and will begin drifting past the sun. At approximately ALON = 330 we can begin lowering ALAT.
QST AMSAT OSCAR-40 2002 Sept 25 ALON/ALAT = 53/30 ** ALON will decrease 20 degs/week due to M.E. ** ** Passbands off in ~7 days as solar angles worsen. **
Wednesday V-Rx sessions are terminated during this time. The K-Tx sessions are terminated during this time. The RUDAK unit has been turned off.

Launched: November 15, 1974 by a Delta 2310 from Vandenberg Air Force Base, Lompoc, California.
Status: Semi-operational in sunlight.
After being declared dead 21 years ago in mid 1981 due to battery failure, AO-7 has miraculously sprung back to life and was first detected by Pat Gowen, G3IOR on June 21, 2002 at 1728 UTC. Jan King, W3GEY reports AO-7 is almost certainly running only off the solar panels. It is very likely to be on only when in the sun and off in eclipse. Therefore, AO-7 will reset each orbit and may not turn on each time. It is in Mode A when the 29.502 MHz beacon is detected.
On July 11, 2002 AO-7 was successfully commanded for the first time since it was declared dead 21 years ago. Commands were sent and accepted to change the CW beacon code speed.
Command investigation continues. So far, 11 different commands have been accepted by AO-7.

Downlink 145.826 MHz FM, 1200 baud PSK
Beacon 2401.500 MHz
Launched March 1, 1984 by a Delta-Thor rocket from Vandenberg Air Force Base in California
Chris G7UPN, UoSAT Ground Controller, has recently outlined the current problems he is experiencing with this satellite.
"Due to the cold temperature, we are currently unable to command the spacecraft to rectify the problem. The reason the Tx cycles is a watchdog timer that cycles the power on and off every few days to ensure that we don't have the same problem which occurred on UoSAT-1 (where the transmitter gets left on and the receivers are therefore blocked).
At the moment there's not a lot we can do to rectify the problem. We will continue to look at it periodically, however for now it will have to remain in its current state."
25 September 13:25 UTC pass. The VHF beacon is now ON, and is transmitting continuous ASCII telemetry. Good signals. Telemetry nominal. Internal temperatures have risen by 2C since last heard on 10 September. Battery voltage, a healthy 14.0.
The mode-S beacon on 2401.5 MHz has been heard by many stations including ZL1AOX, OE1VKW, OE6AG, PE1ITR, WA6WFW, ZL2MV, OZ1MY, W7KKE, IW1AM and K5OE. These reports indicate that the recent problems on OSCAR-11 have not effected the operation of this beacon.

I came across the line, "he went on explain (a metaphor) in the clip," at the end of the following sentence of the article, "How to insult your political opponents" appearing in New Yorker magazine (May 3).
"Crucify is kind of like how the Romans used to conquer villages in the Mediterranean- they'd go into a little Turkish town somewhere and they'd find the first five guys they saw and they'd crucify them," the official, Al Armendariz, said in a speech he gave in 2010. "Then that little town was really easy to manage for the next few years."
This was a metaphor for the deterrent effect the E.P.A. was going for, "he went on explain in the clip."
I was in understanding that "go on" is followed by "to + infinitive" or gerund.
Can "go on" take a verb root as its objective or complement? Is it right to say "he went on speak a gossip," "she went on play piano," "I went on write a letter"?
Conversely, are "he went on speaking/playing/writing," or "he went on to speak/to play/to write" wrong?

My sister says I ask too many questions, such as "What have you been up to lately?" She is the only person who says that.
What do you call a person who doesn't like questions being asked?
My sister says I ask too many questions, such as "What have you been up to lately?" She is the only person who says that.
What do you call a person who doesn't like questions being asked?
Another good word would be reticent: inclined to be silent or uncommunicative in speech.
If you don't want to be critical of her, you could say she's a private person.
If you want to imply she might be hiding something, you could say she is secretive.
There may be different reasons why questions about oneself are unwanted.
shy people feel uncomfortable being in center of others attention and that includes being asked a lot of questions.
secretive people either have something to hide, or just don't like ttalking about themselves much.
Same goes for silent in the meaning Not inclined to speak; not talkative.
In this case it sounds like your sister is more indignant than any of the other terms suggested.
In answer to your question "What do you call a person who doesn't like questions being asked?", I think of such a person as an authoritarian, self-important, fascist, close-minded, stupid, supercilious, cross-grained, arrogant and imperious fool, dunderhead, or dictator.
But perhaps that's not what you want to know, and perhaps meant to ask, "How should [Maureen] refer to this question-averse aspect of her sister?", which of course I don't know. However, if previously-suggested shy, silent, private and secretive don't apply, also consider veiled, introverted, taciturn, censorial, no-nonsense, thin-skinned, touchy and untalkative.
This person is guarded
The ODO proposes this rather good example sentence:
You might say that she answers your questions guardedly, too.
If the person being asked the question wishes to conceal something embarrassing or otherwise inconvenient, evasive is a good fit.
If they feel the questioner is overstepping a social boundary, then resentful may be what you're after.
Based on analysis of Gardner's multiple intelligences, the faculties of the mind and the characteristics suggestive of the learning disabled: adding inattentiveness or inadvertance, bodily or mindfully impaired and/or lost, visually or aurally illiterate, unfocused, corrupt, unreasonable to be a fool! However, the summarized fool is based off memory and attention issues. He may not like other conversational circumstances. If he doesn't like conversational circumstances entirely he is sociolinguistically (conversationally) incompetent, Noam Chomsky might say. The person who doesn't like answering questions in the worst case would be a fool. This question has helped me to see that incompetence, impairment, mindlessness, illiteracy and foolishness can be a rolling problem. It's only rolling if the worst case scenario fool has memory and attention problems, and the rest aforementioned. Thanks for helping me study for the Praxis PLT with this archetype!

Mancuso, AA et al
Abramson Cancer Center of the University of Pennsylvania
Last Modified: November 1, 2001
Reviewers: Kenneth Blank, MD
Source: Journal of Clinical Oncology Vol 17, No 2 p 631 1999
At the University of Florida, analysis of local control and larynx preservation by tumor size (comparing tumors >6cm3 vs. <6cm3 ) revealed thatlarger tumors were significantly less likely to be successfully controlled by radiotherapy. This report updates that analysis and examines whetheror not extension into the pre-epiglottic space impacts on local control following definitive radiotherapy.
All patients underwent pre-treatment, contrast-enhanced computed tomography of the neck, and all scans were retrospectively reviewed by twohead and neck radiologists. Tumors were outlined on each image and tumor volumes in cubic centimeters were calculated. Pre-epiglottic spacespread was estimated and expressed as <25%, 25%-75% or >75% of the pre-epiglottic space.
Eighty-nine percent of patients with tumors less than 6cm3 had local control and laryngeal preservation compared to 40% for tumors greater than6cm3 . No patient with a tumor less than 6cm3 developed a complication requiring laryngectomy in contrast to three patients with tumors greaterthan 6cm3. Comparing rates of laryngeal preservation by tumor stage and size revealed that stage T3 tumors larger than 6cm3 had significantlyworse rates of both local control and larynx preservation compared to T1, T2 and T3 tumors less than 6cm3.
The amount of the pre-epiglottic space invasion did not affect local control. However, patients with greater than 25% of the pre-epiglottic spaceinvolved by tumor had lower larynx preservation rates compared to the cohort of patients with less than 25% of the pre-epiglottic space invaded.Specifically, three patients with greater than 25% of the pre-epiglottic space involved had their tumors controlled by radiation but needed alaryngectomy secondary to radiation complications. This result is statistically significant when compared to the number of patients (zero) with lessthan 25% of the pre-epiglottic space involved who had their tumor controlled but necessitated a laryngectomy.
The results of this study are being utilized at the University of Florida to appropriately counsel patients regarding the risk of tumor recurrenceafter definitive radiation, to offer alternative treatments to patients with bulky tumors, and to guide post-radiotherapy follow-up. Specifically,patients with high volume tumors and who are medically fit for surgery are informed that organ preservation surgery may offer superior rates oflarynx preservation than radiotherapy. Another alternative treatment strategy is neoadjuvant chemotherapy. Patients with tumors that wouldrequire a total laryngectomy are offered chemotherapy and those with greater than 50% reduction in tumor size are treated with combinedchemotherapy and hyperfractionated radiotherapy (the total prescribed dose is given over a course of smaller divided doses, called fractions.Hyperfractionation usually involves the delivery of radiation twice a day, as early as possible in the day and then late in the afternoon). Theauthors conclude that the results reported here will lead to more informed decisions, optimizing patient care.

Holding Up in Temporary Digs
Every morning around 10 a.m. for the past 1½ weeks, the editorial staff of CollegeHumor trickled into a Park Slope beer hall, where they plugged in their laptops and began a typical workday: writing sketches, holding editorial meetings and brainstorming for ad sales campaigns.
The makeshift office—or "bar-ffice" as the team re-christened it—has served as one of the comedy website's outposts since the West Chelsea headquarters of its parent company, InterActiveCorp, was shut down because of heavy flooding sustained during Sandy.
The Frank Gehry-designed IAC building is expected to fully reopen Wednesday, but hundreds of companies are bracing for weeks—and in some cases, months—of dislocation from offices in Lower Manhattan and West Chelsea. While some have had employees work remotely, many technology, media and design firms said the storm revealed the limits of relying solely on electronic communication—once expected to spell doom for the traditional office environment for these types of firms.
"It's tough for creative teams to work remotely by themselves," said Streeter Seidell, editor in chief of CollegeHumor.com, who scoured Park Slope for a suitable WiFi-equipped bar to accommodate about a dozen workers. He eventually landed the beer-hall space at St. Marks Place near Fourth Avenue.
Staffers sat on benches at long wooden tables and Mr. Seidell said they have been surprisingly productive. No one started drinking before noon. The biggest disruption at the temporary location was a local parenting group that also used the space.
"The biggest change has been the Park Slope moms. They come here in a herd of 15 moms with 15 screaming kids, and one or two dads who look lost, all enjoying a nice German beer," Mr. Seidell said.
Now with the IAC building's reopening, Mr. Seidell said some part of him holds out the hope the team's productivity would warrant a more permanent move to Brooklyn, where he lives.
"I wake up four minutes before I go work [now]. That's been a dream of mine forever because I'm lazy. I had one moment where I thought, maybe if this goes so well they'll say, 'Maybe you guys should just set up in Brooklyn,'" he said.
Clusters of tenants displaced from Lower Manhattan and West Chelsea can be found in Downtown Brooklyn and Midtown Manhattan. But suitable office space—outfitted with desks, Internet and heat—has been challenging to come by. Companies that rent space by the week or month said they've been overwhelmed with requests.
Virgo Business Centers, an office suites provider, just opened a new facility at 14 Penn Plaza, which went from empty to completely rented in just a few days. Its other two Midtown facilities are also nearly full, thanks in part to the storm.
"We're hoping that some of these might turn into permanent customers in that I think some people are feeling skittish about being downtown altogether," said Joe Scharf, the company's chief executive.
At least for the first couple of weeks after the storm hit Oct. 29, companies often told employees to work from home. While the chance to stay in bed and use their laptops seemed appealing before Sandy, many workers said they found the stay-at-home experience to be frustratingly unproductive.
"We were joking that we would probably need an adjustment period to go back to the office but still be able to wear pajamas," said Megan Kerman, a 31-year-old graphic designer, who worked from her apartment in Crown Heights after the storm. "Being at home is distracting. I'd think, 'I should do the dishes because I'm here,'" she said.
Ms. Kerman's design firm is located in 88 Pine St. and she said the company is preparing for the possibility they won't be able to return until the new year. She started working Tuesday at temporary space in Union Square.
For some downtown companies, the experience of working remotely or spending a couple of weeks in Midtown has been a mixed adventure. "We're going to go explore for lunch and do TGI Friday's. That's our Midtown experience," said Kerry Trainor, chief executive of Vimeo, which is also normally located in the IAC Building, but took temporary space at 38th Street and Seventh Avenue.
But others said the storm has raised more serious concerns about the vulnerability of their offices to similar disruptions. Even firms that were well backed up were reminded of the occasional indispensability of paper. Law firm Sullivan & Cromwell LLP, whose offices at 125 Broad St. were flooded, had backup servers outside of the city, but they still needed paralegals and attorneys to climb as high as the 36th floor to retrieve documents.
Brian Maddox, a senior managing director at FTI Consulting, a crisis-management and consulting firm, has been out of his offices more than two weeks. When he's not traveling, he conducts conference calls from the veranda of his century-old home on the Hudson in Westchester while watching the autumn leaves fall. A number of employees also relocated to the company's other office in Times Square.
"You never have all your stuff, even in the electronic age. Every crisis is 4 feet, sometimes 9 feet, of legal documents," Mr. Maddox said.
The firm's building on Water Street, was also flooded in 1993, which Mr. Maddox said raises long-term concerns about its waterfront location.
"When it happens twice you don't call it a crisis anymore," Mr. Maddox said. "I'm giving serious consideration to higher ground."

Ubuntu constantly offers me number of updates. But it takes lots of my time to review such offers to find relevant updates (for example, if I am not interested in kernel updates).
Second, it almost always causes new problems. I like new features, but I also like my settings and I really hate Ubuntu if after update it starts into a text-mode shell, with sluggish responsiveness, doesn't mount my nfs folders, etc. And there is no easy way to revert changes! Maybe I don't understand something? Please, help me if you know:
- Is it possible to see only offers to update only those packages, which I specify in a list? For example, if I am not interested in any other update, but only in firefox?
- Is there a way to see what problems will it make before I start any update?
- Is there a way to revert changes automatically if I don't like the state after an update was done?

You can either sync the new contacts to the new Google account or export them to a .vcf on your SD card.
This is just a rough idea of how you can do things. The end process is yours to tweak to your liking and needs.

This is a follow up on my earlier question. To put some values and context, let me say I am trying to justify the number of possibilities of choosing 2 chapters out of 10 in a book i,e $10 \choose 2$. At this point this is just notation.
One way to enumerate the possibilities:
So we have $10\cdot 9$ possibilities but we've double counted pairs such as $(n,m)$ and $(m,n)$ so we have $\frac{10\cdot 9}{2}$.
Now I try to reason with the sum and product rules I've learnt and once again Im confused, which might become detrimental if I go further.
Say I select chapter $1$. I can select chapter $2$ OR $3$ etc. Once I have selected one chapter, the selection of the other chapter is independent w.r.t one another, so using the sum rule I can make total $9$ possible selections once I have selected the first chapter. But then, I can make $10$ different choices of the first chapter. Now it is clear in my mind that each one of these ten possible selections come bundled with 9 possibilities, so multiply the two. But when I read the definition many times and try to bring in a "product-rule argument" and I just cannot. It should come as easily as the thought that I should multiply it, so I've only understood the product rule in words. Please enlighten me.
Another thing I noticed, was that this could be achieved using a purely sum rule argument. Consider the enumeration scheme where we avoid repetition altogether
$$=9+8+\cdots+1=\frac{10\cdot 9}{2}$$
Only the sum rule has been used in this argument. And it is much easier for me to understand. So, a parenthetical query: can a purely product rule argument be used for selections? It does not seem so for me. It appears the sum rule is fundamental and product rule is a special case of it. Which might seem like saying that multiplication is a special case of addition in discrete case. Once again, this last paragraph is just a parenthetical query and not my immediate concern at the moment.

What are your biggest challenges when developing GIS software?
Is it coding? Is it understanding cartography/geography/etc concepts (like projections)? Or other difficulties?
What are your biggest challenges when developing GIS software?
Is it coding? Is it understanding cartography/geography/etc concepts (like projections)? Or other difficulties?
Speaking from my experience as a developer who fell into the ESRI/GIS development scene nearly 5 years ago:
As you can tell I have a pretty negative outlook on the ESRI development scene. For those who come from a geography background, I'm sure the possibilities are pretty exciting. But for someone like me who loves relational databases, object-oriented programming, and wide open opportunity for creative solutions, GIS development with ESRI is very constraining and unfulfilling. This is a shame because the old school crowd tells me that it used to be a superior environment, before the alignment with Microsoft. I sincerely hope the open source community continues to innovate.
Large amounts of data. Being able to figure out the right way to extract large amounts of data using web technology has been a challenge. We can either have a lot of data, and poor performance, or have a lot less data being displayed, but potentially conveying the wrong information.
The most important things, and usually the hardest in my experience, are:
I think that point 1 will be easier in developed countries, but that's not my experience.
I'm not a GIS developer; however, I'm a GIS modeller:
Anyways I may not have answered you correctly; I just wish I was well versed when it comes to GIS programming so i can excel in GIS modeling
To me, the biggest challenge is deciding which tools to use for a given project. Open source or proprietary? Python or .NET? Web-based or desktop? I answer these questions differently for different projects, and I'm sure people will ask all of them on this site. A lot of it comes down to personal preference and trying to divine what ESRI and Microsoft will support in the future.
My issue is all about the horse and the water. In a lot of cases we develop and or present really good solutions for our clients, but no matter how elegant the solution, it is absolutely useless if no one will take the time to use. In some cases, we have been able to alleviate this by making our work user based (survey for issues, talk about solutions prior to development) but it some cases this is still not enough.
I think the hardest challenge is to get management to understand GIS and some users just don't get it either. The perception is that GIS is about making a map; that a map is the sole outcome of any GIS endevour. I can't tell you how frustrating I find this - the level of ignorance out there is huge, and it's held by the key decision makers.
Eventually though - we being some of the pioneering GIS experts and programmers - will eventually become management and then we can finally get some decent GIS projects done!
The other hard thing as a GIS programmer - you have to understand so many different technologies, Java, .Net, databases, ESRI software or other vendors i.e. MapInfo, networks, security, web tech, etc etc. It's an almost impossible job sometimes!
Dealing with people from a surveying background who don't understand professional software development techniques and methodologies, but because they taught themselves how to code avenue/VB, think that's all there is to it.
#3 from Vinko's answer:
I'd vote for the whole answer but for the fact that usability is only the third item in his list and i don't think the first two are that challenging.
Usability is where most of my issues are and where i spend most of the design/development time, figuring out how to design an intelligent and effective user-interface, but keep it intuitive so that users aren't confused by it, for example:
My feeling is that GIS is an especially challenging field in the usability aspect, because:
One of the biggest challenges to Web-based GIS development is how the data is delivered and how much efficiency I can get out of delivering the data a certain way. The biggest hurdle is that it is very hard to write code for something that requires a human to tweak. Very rarely do you see generalization techniques for vector data used at large scales. Most times you have to tweak the scale ranges to turn on and off the layers.
When it comes to coding, I feel I waste far too much time on workarounds. For projections it took me a couple of months to understand the processes and math as there is in my opinion little helpful published material on the subject. The EPSG and OGC documents on the subject did help me get my head around it after a few reads, even though they sometimes seem to be copies of each other. The largest problem I have though as an independent developer is that I can't help but trip over people needing specialized work for medical, industrial, or even simple web app development, even now. With the GIS industry it seems nearly impossible to find a way to enter into the market.
I'm a complete beginner at GIS technologies, figuring things out as I go. And since I have limited funds, I'm trying avoid using any ESRI products and do things entirely with open source tools.
So that said, the hardest things for me so far have all been related to collecting data. There plenty of articles on manipulating and displaying the data, and plenty of tools to make your life easier. But I'm sill walking in the dark when it comes to collecting data.
I have no idea what the professionals do to find and collect data. Something tells me there's an easier way to get data than data.gov and google.
This question came up on my google search for challenges in GIS, and I feel like contributing here.
Another link that I felt relevant was this paper.
Summarizing what is said there and my own views, I think the biggest challenges (in no particular order are):
You might be unfortunate to be forced to work with GIS analysts that have been converted into software developers.
It's easy to expect a competent software developer to pick up GIS concepts, and let them go through the API and generally figure things out without much help. The same does not hold true of taking a GIS analyst and expecting them to pick up software development.
The results are embarrassing, at best. If you have experience working with bad developers, then imagine it's worse code than anything the worst programmer has developed.
There are some companies you may work for that don't get that.
the GIS world is being expanded toward the common user unless early years where the GIS was only treated by engineers, architecs or the scientific community. In the case the GIS app is done for the common user the challenge is mix appropriately of technologies where the GIS is treated as an technology more(in this case a developer with a little understanding of GIS technology is enough). However in the case that the app is done for the specialized community the challenge is more complex becuase besides joining technologies is necessary to search existing algorithms to fulfill with the requeriments otherwise even worse we would have to development these algorithms. In this case a blend of engineer and developer is the worker appropiated.

Search for Susan Cox Powell is over, West Valley police say
Josh Powell's brother believed to have 'intimate involvement' in disappearance
Scott G Winterton, Deseret News
WEST VALLEY CITY — After more than three years of searching through 11 states and investigating more than 800 tips and "countless" hours of investigation, West Valley police on Monday announced the investigation into the disappearance of Susan Cox Powell is now officially a cold case.
"We are announcing the end of the active phase of the search for Susan. This comes after a long and arduous struggle, but it is time to do that. We have no further active leads to develop at this point," said West Valley City Manager Wayne Pyle.
"Susan is still missing. We do not know where she is or what happened to her," added West Valley Deputy Police Chief Mike Powell. "We have left no stone unturned over the 3 ½ years of this investigation."
But officials promised that if any new "credible" leads into the whereabouts of the missing mother came up, they will be investigated.
To mark the closure, West Valley police revealed new details about their investigation on Monday, including the release of more than 2,000 files and "tens of thousands" of pages of police reports and other documents.
As for what police believe happened to Susan Powell, Mike Powell (no relation to the Powell family) said Josh Powell "was definitely involved" with his wife's disappearance, but stopped short of saying he murdered her.
Among the most interesting new details released Monday:
Josh's brother Michael Powell — who committed suicide in February — was "heavily investigated" and likely had "intimate involvement" in Susan's disappearance.
Michael Powell's car was abandoned in Oregon in 2009 near Pendleton. DNA evidence was found in the trunk of the car but it did not match Susan's profile.
Michael and Josh Powell had "significant" communication with each other, including sending encrypted electronic messages that police were never able to decipher.
Court-approved wire taps were used for three months, monitoring the conversations between Josh Powell and his father, Steven Powell.
Investigators do not believe Steven Powell was directly involved in his daughter-in-law's disappearance, though he may have some knowledge about what happened to her.
West Valley police met with Susan Powell's parents, Chuck and Judy Cox, over the weekend to tell them what information they planned to release, according to family attorney Anne Bremner. The Coxes are scheduled to hold a press conference Tuesday in Seattle.
"It's just hard to hear from the police that it's basically over," said Kiirsi Hellewell, Susan Powell's best friend. "I don't think (police) are giving up, even though it feels kind of like that. They're basically not going to have the full time team devoted to it."
Michael Powell
"We believe firmly that Michael Powell was involved in her disappearance. We don't believe he was directly involved, but he had involvement at some point with her disappearance," the deputy chief said.
Michael Powell committed suicide in February in Minnesota where he was living. Police say said he had been "deceitful" with investigators and had adamantly defended his brother.
After Josh Powell murdered his two young sons and killed himself, police say their "primary focus" became Michael Powell. Once he committed suicide, it "essentially left us with no other significant suspect" to focus on, the deputy chief said.
"Many of the details have left this world with them," he said of the brothers.

The article making_ginger_beer mentions using bread yeast so you get more carbonation and less alcohol. Isn't carbonation a by-product of the process that makes alcohol? Wouldn't that mean more carbonation means more alcohol? What is the relation between type of yeast, carbonation, and alcohol content?
Carbonation is indeed a by-product of fermentation, the yeast will consume sugar and produce alcohol and co2.
Some yeast strains will consume more sugar before the alcohol concentration gets too high and they go into 'hibernation' (floculate and settle to the botton).
Lower temperatures will also cause some strains of yeast to floculate and stop fermenting, which is the key to your recipe.
According to it, you let the yeast do its magic for a few hours, then put it on the fridge to stop fermentation. All you want is enough co2 to produce bubbles so if you follow the recipe and put the bottles in the fridge once they feel 'hard' you shouldn't get too much alcohol.
It says it in the article
So, according to it, for the same amount of alcohol produced (and fermented sugar), bread yest will generate more CO2 than wine yeast.
I am not an expert, so I do not know if the statement is correct or not. Fermentation chemical reaction is
In order for the statement to be true, alongside "main" fermentation reaction there should be some other reaction with effect on alchool or CO2, for example generating different ratio of CO2 and alcohol.
That sounds suspect to me. The article suggests that wine yeasts are selected for low CO2 output sound right. The primary selection criteria for yeasts in brewing is taste and alcohol tolerance while the primary selection criteria for baking yeast is that it starts off faster.
Secondly if you think about chemistry, you'd have to do something with the carbon other than producing CO2. If you could reduce the CO2 from the yeast the very serious question would be "what else is it producing instead?" and that would lead in my mind to health concerns.
Beer yeasts use the Crabtree effect to undergo fermentation in the presence of (some) oxygen. On the other hand, bread yeasts prefer to undergo respiration rather than fermentation in the presence of oxygen. A byproduct of the TCA cycle is CO2-but not alcohol. If you limit your oxygen levels then you will get alcohol produced as the yeast will switch from a respiration to a fermentation pathway to produce energy.

I am working on an occasionally connected app. To allow the users to authenticate I created a profile which is encrypted and placed on the users machine.
The first byte of the file contains the IV length followed by the IV and then encrypted using Aes where the key is the users password hashed using SHA256.
Within the contents of the profile is the SHA512 hashed user password which I use to authenticate the user and (I think) acting as a mac.
So, the users enters their password, it is hashed into the Aes Key and used to decrypt the profile. Then I authenticate the user by hashing the entered password and comparing it to the stored hashed password.
Am introducing a security problem by embedding the hashed password within the profile file and does this ensure message integrity?

Right click "Save as…"
SnagL, from Berico Tailored Systems, is a thin client collaborative link analysis tool, which can be integrated with any existing tool or data repository. Advanced analytics, like clustering and ranking, enables users to intuitively navigate massive amounts of data through a thin client in a web browser.
SnagL is used by U.S. Government customers to help visually analyze, determine relationships in, and make decisions based on data. Watch the interview with members of the team to learn about the product, see a demo of it in action, and how it uses Silverlight to deliver compelling data visualizations that go beyond what you might expect from a browser based application. The team also gives you a history of their early adoption of Silverlight, evolution of SnagL, and how Silverlight enabled them to "see things you wouldn't normally see just looking at the data." They also talk about how Silverlight gave them a level of performance and visualization in the browser unmatched by their previous approaches. Finally, the team shares their excitement to start incorporating capabilities coming in Silverlight 3.

Ana Maria Rey, a theoretical physicist and a fellow of JILA, a joint institute of the University of Colorado Boulder and the National Institute of Standards and Technology, today was named a winner of a 2013 MacArthur Fellowship, commonly known as the "genius grant."
Rey also is an assistant research professor in the CU-Boulder Department of Physics. She teaches undergrauate and graduate classes.
Rey is the eighth CU-Boulder faculty member to win the prestigious award from the John D. and Catherine T. MacArthur Foundation of Chicago as well as the fourth physics faculty member and third JILA fellow. Rey, 36, was one of 24 recipients of the 2013 "no-strings attached" funding. She will receive $625,000 paid out over five years.
"It is a great honor for me to be a MacArthur fellow and to receive such great recognition of my work," Rey said. "I want to thank JILA, NIST, CU-Boulder and the outstanding group of colleagues, collaborators and students who have allowed and helped me to accomplish the research I have done."
The MacArthur Foundation selection committee cited Rey as an "atomic physicist advancing our ability to simulate, manipulate, and control novel states of matter through fundamental conceptual research on ultracold atoms."
"We congratulate Professor Rey on this exciting award, and, we also congratulate our faculty, whose ranks now include five Nobel laureates and eight MacArthur Fellowship winners," said CU-Boulder Chancellor Philip P. DiStefano. "I believe Professor Rey's work is emblematic of the research, innovation, and discovery at CU-Boulder, a body of work and a collection of great minds that is unmatched anywhere in the Rocky Mountain region and few places around the nation."
Tom O'Brian, chief of the NIST Quantum Physics Division and Rey's supervisor, said, "Ana Maria has rapidly established herself as one of the world's top young theoretical physicists. She has a special ability to make very practical applications of theory to key experiments. Ana Maria has been crucial to the success of such world-leading NIST/JILA programs as ultracold molecules, dramatic improvements in optical lattice clocks, and use of cold atom systems and trapped ion systems for quantum simulations."
At JILA, Rey works with ultracold atoms and molecules that are trapped in an "optical lattice," a series of shallow wells constructed of laser light. Atoms that are loaded into an optical lattice behave similarly to electrons in a solid crystal structure. But while it's difficult to change the properties of a solid crystal, the properties of an optical lattice—which essentially acts as a "light crystal"—are highly controllable, allowing Rey to explore a whole range of phenomena that would be nearly impossible to study in a solid crystal system.
Ultimately, Rey hopes her research will lead to the ability to engineer materials with unique characteristics such as superfluids—liquids that appear to move without regard for gravity or surface tension—and quantum magnets—individual atoms that act like tiny bar magnets.
Rey began studying physics at the Universidad de los Andes in Bogota, Colombia, where she received a Bachelor of Science degree in 1999. She came to the United States to continue her studies, earning a doctorate in physics from the University of Maryland, College Park in 2004.
Before coming to JILA in 2008, Rey was a postdoctoral fellow at the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics in Cambridge, Mass., and a postdoctoral researcher at NIST in Gaithersburg, Md.
Previous CU-Boulder faculty members who have won a MacArthur Fellowship include David Hawkins of philosophy in 1981, Charles Archambeau of physics in 1988, Patricia Limerick of history in 1995, Margaret Murnane of physics and JILA in 2000, Norman Pace of molecular, cellular and developmental biology in 2001, Daniel Jurafsky of linguistics and the Institute of Cognitive Science in 2002 and Deborah Jin of JILA, NIST and physics in 2003.

Which sex is the worst about washing up? Why is it so important? We've got the dirty truth on how and when to wash your hands.
Lifestyle Changes That May Help Prevent Cancer
Topic Overview
Drink alcohol wisely
People who drink more than 2 alcoholic drinks a day-and especially those who drink more than 3 drinks a day-have a slightly higher risk for colon cancer.
If you're a woman, you may help prevent breast cancer by limiting yourself to 1 drink a day. Using alcohol leads to extra estrogen in the body, which raises your breast cancer risk.
Practice safer sex
Practicing safer sex helps keep you from getting HPV, a sexually transmitted infection that can cause cervical cancer in women. Safer sex includes using condoms and talking to every potential sex partner about his or her sexual history.
Get regular checkups and screenings
Visiting your doctor and dentist for regular checkups is good for your health. Your doctor can schedule regular screenings for various types of cancer, such as mammograms for breast cancer and colonoscopy for colon cancer.
Most screenings and checkups are to find cancer early, when it's easier to treat and may even be curable. But there are some things your doctor may recommend that can actually prevent certain cancers in the first place.
There are several types of screening tests for colon cancer. But only two of them can actually prevent cancer: colonoscopy and sigmoidoscopy. These tests can find and remove polyps in the colon before they turn into cancer. For more information, see:
- Colon Cancer: Which Screening Test Should I Have?
Consider vaccinations
If you are age 26 or younger, you can get the HPV shot to protect against the virus that can cause cervical cancer. Three shots are given over 6 months. The series of shots is recommended for girls age 11 or 12 and can be given to females ages 9 to 26.
Males age 9 through 26 may also get the HPV shot (Gardasil) which may prevent anal cancer.

Oops, something didn't work.
No worries Dave. What do you mean by the by the Presentation Templates, though? I'm not familiar with the term. Is it an SP1 thing?
On a side note, how is GFW.com put together. Are they using a filter/module to fix up the "/Pages/" in their URLs or some other trickery?
Cheers for posting the video!
Presentation Templates is just a term used to describe the bundles you typically see a lot of design agencies and partners offering now.
Basically it is a customized MOSS Publishing Site that has been set up with numerous workflows, custom css files and usually some added on Features. They will then save these out as custom site templates that they can offer to their customers. Typically the only thing that needs to be added afterwards is some look and feel (which can be done via SharePoint Designer or directly on the site itself) and Flash content.
You can find a ton of different partner solutions up on OBACentral here.
If you curious about creating custom features, workflows, or more about web publishing Ted Pattison has some nice screencasts on Channel9 you can find here.
I agree about GFW.com I am curious now too. I don't know who was involved with it specifically but you might try checking out Sharepointpedia.com. It has a good community around it that might have the answer. They cover lots of topics and solutions too ranging from Sharepoint Customization to Silverlight.

- 8 medium chicken drumsticks, skin removed
- non-stick cooking spray (I used Pam)
- 1 cup water
- 1 tablespoon Sriracha hot sauce* (more or less to taste- I used about ½ Tbsp and it was perfect for me)
- ½ cup balsamic vinegar
- ½ cup soy sauce
- 4 teaspoon sugar
- 3 cloves garlic, crushed
- 1 teaspoon ginger, grated
- 2 tablespoon chives or scallions, chopped
- 1 teaspoon sesame seeds
- In a heavy large skillet pan, brown chicken on high for 3-4 minutes with a little spray oil. Add water, balsamic, soy sauce, sugar, garlic, ginger, hot sauce and cook on high until liquid comes to a boil.
- Reduce heat to low and simmer, covered for about 20 minutes. Remove cover and bring heat to high, allowing sauce to reduce down, about 8-10 minutes, until it becomes a thick glaze, turning chicken occasionally. (Keep an eye on glaze, you don't want it to burn when it start becoming thick).
- Transfer chicken to a platter and pour glaze on top. Top with chives/scallions and sesame seeds and serve. We served it with some rice and broccoli . . . it was delicious!
*Sriracha hot sauce is available at most grocery stores and Wal-Mart. It is a Thai chili sauce with amazing flavor. It cost me about $3 for a huge bottle of it and it is totally worth it. The flavor it adds is so yummy.

Fat & Dutch. A fat Dutchman/Dutchwoman, esp. one whose ego is just ridiculously too big given his rather noobish status in general life. Also an epic nickname to be given to just about anyone.
