Room-Temperature, Acid-Catalyzed [2+2] Cycloadditions: Suppression of Side Reactions by using a Flow Microreactor System
Added value: The [2+2] cycloaddition of silyl enol ethers with α,β-unsaturated esters, catalyzed by the superstrong acid triflic imide (Tf2NH), at room temperature in a flow microreactor system is reported. The micororeactor method achieves the [2+2] cycloaddition of unstable silyl enol ethers and acrylates, which is unsuccessful in batch reactors, even at room temperature.

Nay and Oli planned to marry in Vegas on a family holiday in October. "We decided to tie our wedding into a family trip to Vegas for my father's 60th birthday," the bride explained. "The priority for us was no fuss, we'd already hijacked the family holiday, we wanted it quick and simple. We decided to do it this way as I thought it'd be a crime to go to Vegas and not get married, so I proposed to Oli using a ring which a jeweller friend had made, and stuck it in a fortune cookie which I'd made and decorated with our three year old son!"
"As weddings go, you don't really have to have a big budget in Vegas, it's all so cheap!" she continued. "We spent $60 on a marriage license and $170 on the ceremony which including the added extra of 18 (cheesy) photos. We originally weren't going to get another photographer, but in the end we changed our minds and I'm so glad we did! Our families paid for her as our wedding gift."

Sky Hawk USA Jupiter Case Review
It seems that everyone today is getting more interested in lightweight enclosures. Aluminum has become more popular than nearly any other case material in the history of computing. But why? Simply put, there has recently been a huge rise in the number of computer users. Since many of these users are younger folks, gaming is taking up more computing hours than nearly any other home computing activity (business, of course, will always remain atop the overall lists). With all the new gamers hitting the streets, LAN parties have become a dime a dozen. Rarely a weekend goes by when you don't hear of at least one or two LAN parties that are reasonably close by. Anyone who has lugged an old steel case around realizes the immediate benefit of a lighter enclosure. And besides, they look cool!
Enter Sky Hawk USA, a manufacturing company that has been around since 1988 producing peripherals and networking system solutions. But what does this company have to do with lightweight, good-looking cases? It seems that they decided not too long ago to enter the market of this very product line. This brings us to the enclosure that we will be looking at today, the Jupiter Case. It has some interesting features, but we'll be checking into a lot of different features to see if it has what it takes to help you in your search for lightweight casing.
And of course, those who have looked into my case reviews already know that pictures will be in abundance so sit back and take a peek at this new case design from Sky Hawk USA.

The majority of jobs being created in the recovery are lower-paying ones, while higher-paying positions have been slow to return, according to a new report from the National Employment Law Project, suggesting a "good jobs deficit" that has hollowed out many of middle-wage job opportunities, the study's co-director says.

Richard Mackenzie, contributorComments (453) | + Follow Following - UnfollowCompanies were reluctant to lay off American workers simply to move jobs overseas (PR nightmare). But, but, but. Since the recession provided a "reason" to lay off American workers, who says they have to re-hire here? The threshold for moving that job is a lot lower once the American has already been laid off. Right?

- priority: 5 --> 2
First of all, I'll explain how I've come to this question.
We are using an audio editing system that works on a
Mac with additional cards with a SCSI bus built in. The
system originally was created on Unix, and ported to
the Mac about 15 years ago. The system uses its onboard
SCSI interface to write recorded audio to the disks.
Of course they also built a solution for easy backuping
the disks. This application (witch of course only works
in 9, but that's not the problem) mounts the disks on
the desktop when connected to the Mac's SCSI bus, or an
adaptec card, allowing you to copy files to other
disks. This is crucial to make exact backups (the
system uses non-destructive editing, saving the changes
to a file on the disk on your mac, leaving the data on
the file intact. Very handy, since only one backup has
to be made and different edits etc can use the same disk).
However, the disks mounted by that utility are very
slow (1 MB/s) on pre-G3 macs, and even slower on the G4
(0.5 MB/s). On the pre-G3s, the adaptec card speeds
things up a little.
If the disks are formatted in HFS, or HFS+, they get
speeds up to 20+ MB/sec, so, we came to the conclusion
the utility+extension to mount these "XFS" disks isn't
that efficient, so I searched for an alternative
utility that could do that, and found nothing, that's
why I post this here.
I have found out that Silicon Graphics has made
adaptions to that "XFS", but I don't think our disks
use that, since on a crash, or unexpected shutdown, the
system "rebuilds" the whole disk, witch takes up to
half an hour for an 18 GB disk, and even longer for
larger ones (it luckily never fails to "repair it",
must be the power of the "XFS").
Since it is very time consuming to backup data/restore
old data on all our disks, I wondered if it would be
easy to implement mounting this feature in your Ext2
mounter, and if it indeed would be faster. It is also
handy to run it in X because OS 9 rebuilds the @#)($*
desktop file everytime a "new" disk is mounted.
Thanks for reading, even if I'm afraid I already know
the answer, I'd like to hear your comments! And thanks
for the great work on the Ext2 mount/repair tools!

Hi there, I'm an IRIX user, one of the few left. XFS on Linux is gimped, it's missing cluster and failover features, they never ported them. Other issues include how it interacts with the kernel API's, it was not designed for Linux, although their own engineers did port it. The biggest issue with XFS is not actually with XFS, it lies with the way PC hardware (x86) shuts off power, and I'm specifically referring to the power supplies not being robust. This is why people complain of corruption.
On Linux, XFS fairs well against JFS (Ported from AIX) and ext2/3, it is actually preferred if you have a decent UPS system over the older ext filesystems. The performance you report is not with XFS, it is with how block copy allocations occur, not to bore you though, it's a messy project to port it to BSD, and they have been trying for years, it's mainly reverse engineering.
Mac OS X' file system layer uses BSD code, and without a robust implementation on BSD, including NetBSD or FreeBSD, the most likely candidates for porting, it will never reach the Mac. Just see the big stir with Java SE 6.0 not being shipped with Leopard, people such as Gosling are jumping ship. The current unofficial X11-based Java 6 port is based on hybrid BSD patches and public sources, which are not legally allowed to be distributed in compiled form. The same thing happens to XFS, it's GPL licensed, it must run under FUSE because direct linking is against the copyleft (Liberal) license. To flip it around and stick it to them for being so stupid, OpenSolaris' DTrace and ZFS are under FUSE on Linux. The problem is Linux here, it stagnates cross-pollination, you're hard pressed to ever see something as old and widespread as ext or xfs under any other license than what daddy says it can be, the copyright holder has that right. SGI has also gone the wayside of development, they won't listen to a 10,000 person petition unless there's 10mln involved.
Performance with FUSE is terrible because it's not running at the highest level, every operation is essentially interpreted by the user, and not the kernel itself. Unfortunately, ext2fsx might be doing something illegal if they are not using FUSE, and with that said, you must chose HFS+ or FAT32 if you want speed and reliability on Mac OS X. HFS+ is the fastest of the file system implementations. Oh, for the record, UFS in prior releases is next to useless, it was a fork of dated BSD code, before the FreeBSD project even was established, and it's not supported on Leopard.
If you need to migrate your data, I recommend using a Linux livecd (Yeah, yuck) and a second external disk (Preferably USB, since SCSI's on Macs are too obscure)

AbstractCorrosive environments together with cyclic loading can lead to the formation of localized corrosion pits and corrosion fatigue cracks, which can significantly deteriorate the structural integrity of aircraft components. The exact nature of corrosion fatigue damage is dependent on the competing multi-scale processes resulting from complex interactions between the structural material, its environment, local microstructure and mechanical variables. In order to assess the durability and integrity of aircraft components (especially of aging fleet) there is a need to develop new theoretical models which can predict corrosion fatigue damage by accounting the interactions between the multi-scale phenomena. In this work, ACT together with Florida State University proposes to develop a Peridynamics framework which could accurately predict the corrosion fatigue processes across different length scales. The modeling approach is based on novel coupling methodologies between atomistic process, microstructural changes and Peridynamics theory. The resulting computational framework will enable prediction of corrosion fatigue life in naval aircraft components exposed to different corrosive environments during their service life.

Two laundry baskets, two cats.
Harley (left) and JellyBean (right) inspect the laundry baskets, newly placed on the floor. I suspect that cats and laundry baskets have opposite charge; that would explain why (1) the cats are attracted so strongly to them and (2) the cats no longer repel each other when they are contained within a laundry basket. Ordinarily, when these two get within a meter of each other, they quickly end up running in opposite directions.

Posted by ESPN.com's Brian Bennett
Rutgers released its new depth chart today, but there are no answers on the quarterback question.
Dom Natale, Jabu Lovelace and Tom Savage are all listed atop the chart at the position, separated by "ORs." Head coach Greg Schiano says he won't reveal who the starter is for Monday's game against Cincinnati, though he knows who it will be.
"I have a starter; I'm just not making it public yet," he said. " We know. I think we have a pretty good idea of what the plan is going to be. How it unfolds in the game is different. I think some of that will be determined on how it goes.
Lovelace is more of a runner than a passer who can be used in special packages. So the real question is whether Natale, the fifth-year senior, or Savage, the true freshman, will take the first snaps. If one starts and struggles to move the team down the field, the other might come in.
Schiano sounded like he's leaning toward the veteran Natale.
"Jabu is very athletic, very good with the ball in his hands, running the ball, has shown that over time," Schiano said. "When you talk about Tom, Tom is young. There's no doubt. I only wish we would have had him here for spring practice because you can see him coming right now. He's getting better every day. But not sure that he's got enough snaps under his belt to go against a team like Cincinnati.
"Then you look at Dom Natale, who is a seasoned guy, a 22‑year‑old guy, but has not played a lot of college football. He's been injured, has transferred. But he definitely has the command of our offense.
"I think there's a confidence level there with our players. I think there's going to be a mix of the three. I don't know what the percentages are, but we'll see."
How does Cincinnati prepare for an unknown quarterback?
"Two of the quarterbacks are going to mirror a lot of the game plan relative to the traditional pro-style attack we've seen from Rutgers," Bearcats coach Brian Kelly said. "Then the running end of the quarterback cycle is part of what we have to plan for.
"We've taken the name of the quarterback out of our preparation and are just dealing with what we can see from all those quarterbacks. It's not that difficult, because we get a little bit of that from different teams we see during the year. So we're just kind of adding a little bit more to our game plan."
Quarterback is apparently not the only job still up for grabs for the Scarlet Knights.
On the offensive line, Howard Barbieri and Caleb Ruch are listed as co-starters at left guard. Ruch started the last half of the season there, while Barbieri was a super sub who could play a lot of different spots. Offensive line is supposedly Rutgers' greatest strength with all five starters back. But Schiano tempered expectations a little for that unit today.
"I've read all the reports about how this offensive line is going to be this and going to be that," Schiano said. "But it's still a very young group.
"You've got a guy at right guard who's only started seven games in Art Forst, who's a true sophomore. The guy at other guard, depending on who plays, will have started a half dozen games or hasn't started any. So I'm a little concerned, to be honest with you. I have some issues that are still up in air as far as all the things we have to get ready for, as far as this defensive front and this defensive scheme (by Cincinnati)."
On defense, Blair Bines and Scott Villone are listed as co-starters at defensive tackle, while Manny Abreu and Antonio Lowery are still battling for the will linebacker spot.
"I don't know how that's going to play out," Schiano said. " I think this week of practice is still important, who practices better. Cincinnati is different than we are offensively. So we had 15 or 16 practices against Rutgers, and you're evaluating them. Now we've had four practices against Cincinnati, and we'll have another three or four. I think we're still in the evaluation of who plays this style of offense better. That will probably dictate."

I love European horror. There is a completely different mood and feel compared to American horror films, which at this point basically consist of the same few movies made over and over again. Watching unknown actors, I had no predilections as to where the story would take their characters. The story begins with the horrible mutilation and murder of a little girl, likely the work of some cult or other. Then, several years later, the child's mother Claudia (and I must say Emma Vilarasau gives a wonderfully distraught performance as the traumatized mother) receives a phone call from her daughter, begging her to come get her. She goes alone to the location, braves the absolute creepiness of the place, and finds enough evidence to make her think her daughter may actually still be alive.Read more ›
I gave this movie 5 stars because as well as being a terrifically produced movie, I think it touches on a more extreme side of true horror than almost any other movie I've seen. First let me say that I do not consider most slasher/revenge type movies as horror. In the end, they are almost cartoonish, albeit with a lot of blood and guts. A more accurate term in my mind might be 'terror films', because the director seems to be trying to terrorize the audience. Or frighten them by having somebody in a monster mask jump out and say 'boo!' There is nothing wrong with that, I can enjoy some of those movies too, but be forewarned, 'The Nameless' is nothing like that.
The story itself is simple. A mother and father apparently lose their daughter - killed in a horrific manner, possibly by cultists. The plot picks up five years later. The parents have split up, and the mother is still processing the loss of her daughter. She functions, but the weight of her murdered child is with her at all times. Until she gets a phone call, purportedly from her daughter, who tells her that she wasn't murdered, but kidnapped and abused by the cult.
The rest of the movie follows the mother, the detective who is assisting her, and a journalist who works for a supernatural/paranormal magazine. All of this is well done, and the tension continues to mount through the storytelling ability of the director. But it is the end where the entire movie gets its payoff.Read more ›
Putting that aside, the film's native language is Spanish and much of the character's personalities and torment, (however their own doing it may be) are lost in the English overdubbing.

PI3K signaling maintains c-myc expression to regulate transcription of E2F1 in pancreatic cancer cells†
- †
Carolin Schild and Matthias Wirth contributed equally to this work.
Phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K) signaling controls survival and proliferation of cancer cells and is activated in around 60% of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinomas (PDACs). Although not entirely clarified, PI3K signaling is linked to cell cycle progression of PDAC cells. In this study we demonstrate that PI3K signaling controls transcription of the E2F1 gene and show that E2F1 is essential for S-phase progression of PDAC cells. On the molecular level, PI3K signaling controls c-myc protein abundance in a glycogen synthase kinase-3 (GSK3)-dependent fashion. c-myc binds to the E-box of the E2F1 gene in PDAC cells and this binding is under control of the PI3K-signaling pathway. Together, we demonstrate that PI3K–GSK3-dependent control of c-myc protein expression is connected to the transcription of the E2F1 gene in PDAC cells, leading to S-phase progression of the cell cycle. © 2009 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

Yttrium aluminum garnet (YAG) has thermal, mechanical, and optical properties that vary strongly with temperature. In this paper, we show that when such properties are taken into account the resulting thermally induced distortions in rod amplifiers cannot be described as quadratically varying with rod radius, and thus cannot be completely corrected using a simple spherical lens. In addition, we show that for operation with a coolant temperature at 77 K, thermally induced distortion is minimal and birefringence is substantially reduced when compared to that during operation with a coolant at room temperature

First lady Michelle Obama to high school grads: Live your dreams
Mark Humphrey, Associated Press
NASHVILLE, Tenn. — First lady Michelle Obama has some advice for some Tennessee high school graduates: Strike your own path in college and life and work to overcome inevitable failures with determination and grit.
Mrs. Obama spoke for 22 minutes to the graduates of Martin Luther King Jr. Academic Magnet High School on Saturday in her only high school commencement address this year. The ceremony took place in the gymnasium of nearby Tennessee State University.
The first lady told the 170 graduates that she spent too much of her own time in college focusing on academic achievements. While her success in college and law school led to a high-profile job, she said, she ended up leaving to focus on public service.
"My message to all of you today is this: Do not waste a minute living someone else's dream," she said. "It takes a lot of real work to discover what brings you joy ... and you won't find what you love simply by checking boxes or padding your GPA."
Mrs. Obama lauded the school — it's on the site of one of the city's first to educate African-Americans — for its graduation rate, spirit of volunteerism and healthy food programs. She noted that each graduate was going on to either higher education or the military.
She said MLK reminded her of her own high school experience in Chicago.
"My No. 1 goal was to go to a high school that would push me and challenge me," she said. "I wanted to go somewhere that would celebrate achievement. A place where academic success wouldn't make me a target of teasing or bullying, but instead would be a badge of honor."
But Mrs. Obama lamented that not all students have the same opportunities.
"Unfortunately, schools like this don't exist for every kid," she said. "You are blessed."
The first lady told graduates that failure may be a part of their college lives and careers, and that how they respond to any pitfalls will define them.
"That's when you find out what you're really made of in those hard times," she said. "But you can only do that if you're willing to put yourself in a position where you might fail."
Overcoming adversity has been the hallmark of many great people, she said.
"Oprah was demoted from her first job as a news anchor, and now she doesn't even need a last name," she said of media giant Oprah Winfrey. "And then there's this guy Barack Obama ... he lost his first race for Congress, and now he gets to call himself my husband."
Mrs. Obama later presented graduate diplomas on stage and posed for photos with graduates.
"We didn't know we would get to hug her," said graduate Natey Kinzounza, 18. "She's got a great sense of humor. She's like my mom, she's just a very real person."

Godzilla's Home Opens It Arms To Scuba Divers
By NICHOLAS D. KRISTOF
Published: June 22, 1997
AS the tiny propeller airplane drops down toward Bikini atoll, rocked by gusts of wind that produce sickening lurches, the land looks breathtakingly fragile. It is a tiny crescent of sand peeping just above the sea, two beaches with almost nothing in between, looking as if any large wave could wash away Bikini for good.
The next perception is one of spectacular beauty. The lagoon is a turquoise so brilliant it seems to glow; the sands are a sparkling white; the tiny strip of palms and jungle is a rich forest green; and the ocean is a deep blue as thick as paint.
A moment later, the plane has rattled to a stop on a grass field, and the half-dozen of us on board jump out. A sign welcomes us to Bikini International Airport, which seems a bit grandiose, since there is no real airport at all. It is just a landing strip on which this plane wobbles to a stop once a week with a few passengers on a domestic flight from Majuro, the capital of the Republic of the Marshall Islands. Nobody even bothered to take my airplane ticket on the three-hour flight in either direction.
Yet in a sense that is the attraction of Bikini. It is one of those places that everyone has heard of but nobody has been to, like Timbuktu. Except that Timbuktu today is just another dusty, charmless city in West Africa, while Bikini remains a ravishing Pacific island with a dazzling sun and a coral reef teeming with fish and sea turtles. Indeed, Bikini's striking beauty is largely a result of its isolation, for it was virtually deserted until it was opened to tourists last year.
Now that the Bikini Atoll Diving Resort has begun to attract Americans and other foreigners, any day now, the first bikini will come to Bikini.
Naturally, when I first decided to visit Bikini, everyone asked: ''But is it safe?'' Everybody except my wife, Sheryl, who didn't ask. She announced, ''It's not safe.''
After all, Bikini atoll became known in the 1940's and 1950's when the United States dropped 23 atomic and hydrogen bombs on it. A French company was just introducing a new two-piece bathing suit for women at the time, and named it the bikini, apparently because it was thought to catch men's attention with the same force as an atomic blast.
In any case, background radiation levels on Bikini are now lower than those in many American cities, and six different studies have concluded that Bikini is safe, at least so long as residents do not eat vast numbers of local coconuts. And while Godzilla was supposed to have arisen from the Bikini lagoon, stirred from the depths by the atomic testing, there is no sign that the radiation spawned mutant monsters.
Bikini atoll is a horseshoe-shaped string of 23 islands surrounding a spectacular turquoise lagoon. On my trip in February, I took a 15-minute boat ride from the island with the airstrip to the main island in the atoll, also called Bikini. Visits should be arranged a few weeks ahead, because the only place to stay is the resort, and if it is full, you may end up on the beach until the next flight out, a week later.
Most of the people who come to Bikini are divers participating in a weeklong package that costs $2,750, and includes diving, food and a Spartan but clean and pleasant room. The 20 rooms in three buildings face the lagoon and have toilets, hot and cold water, showers, air-conditioning and electricity (from a generator), but there is no television or phone (except for a satellite link that can be used in an emergency for $10 a minute). The lodgings are more like those of a motel than of a resort, and the cafeteria is similarly clean but not fancy. It offers fresh mahi-mahi, tuna and other fish, as well as tropical fruit and fresh vegetables, and for the homesick, foods like hamburgers, hot dogs and soft drinks.
The diving program consists of two dives a day to explore shipwrecks of World War II vintage craft in the lagoon. When they are not diving, the guests can explore the 586-acre island on foot or on rented bicycles, or watch videos in the lodge. There is plenty of beachcombing to be done on an island that has had virtually no tourists for decades, and the sand is full of shells and sprigs of coral. There is also an old cemetery, from the time when Bikinians lived on the island before being evicted in 1946 for the tests, and a few bunkers near the beach that were used to shelter observers during the tests.
The resort is owned collectively by the Bikinians, and about 30 people live on the island -- a dozen who work in the lodge and various others monitoring the area for the American Government and conducting scientific experiments. The Bikinians now live on others of the Marshall Islands but are debating whether to return to their atoll.
The lagoon is full of bonefish, sharks, marlin and other species of gamefish, and the resort lets people use fishing rods and tackle to cast from the beach. In addition, it is planning to get fishing boats and begin a sport fishing program this summer. I strolled along the beach with Rod Bourke, an Australian who is the resort manager, and with Edward Maddison, a Bikinian who is a dive master and has logged more dives in the lagoon than anyone else, and we could see schools of fish in the water a stone's throw away.

Released: Aug 01st, 1998
Running Time: 84
Company: EVN
Cast: Kattina Brogan, Charlie (I), Joelani, Jay London
Critical Rating: AA 1/2
Genre: Gonzo
Stock for Charlie fans; her body\'s more heavenly than Everest.
Journeyman porn vet Don Fernando (or just another D.F. in the night), is the faceless voice behind the camera. He haunts the video store and the mall in search of the usual. He picks up two couples who return to his apartment and fuck for him. One pair happens to be voluptuous Charlie and her boyfriend, Mr. Charlie, who fuck like the pros they are... or at least the one she later became. She takes all of Mr.'s chunk like the caramel dynamo she's now worshipped for being. Fernando gently comments on the festivities, never getting lewd, just polite and boring: "You're a lucky man, Mister." He never steps in front of the camera, even when it's his turn at the plate. In his third installment, at LAX, he picks up blond, plaid-skirted Kattina Brogan who says —while sucking his cock— that there's a certain amount of power in having a sensitive organ in one's mouth with "my teeth hovering nearby." Hovering? You got to admire that kind of language.

Lupita Nyong'o has been wowing us all year long, and People agrees — it just named her the most beautiful person of the year [1]. But it wasn't her breathtaking red carpet looks [2] or darling selfies [3] that had us gasping the first time we saw her — it was her killer arms. They are strong, toned, and more than capable of carrying all the awards she racked up for her role in 12 Years a Slave [4]. So we turned to Meka Gibson, personal training manager at David Barton Gym [5], to find out how we can chisel our own upper bodies into something even slightly close to resembling Lupita's. "The way to toned arms like Lupita's is making sure to work the major upper body muscles to create symmetry and definition," says Meka.
To achieve this balance, Meka gave us three exercises that can be done at home or in the gym and perfectly complement a cardio workout. For all of these exercises, Meka recommends choosing weights that will allow you to do 10 to 11 reps with good form. "It should be slightly challenging to get those last two to four reps," she says. If you find you can easily swing the weights or can't finish the movement from beginning to end, choose a more appropriate weight or stop and rest before starting the next set.

1a: Triceps Pressdown
Hold on to either end of a resistance band, and step onto the middle of it with your left foot; step your right foot slightly forward, keeping knees slightly bent. Holding onto the band, slowly straighten your arms above your head, allowing the handles of the band to touch.
1b: Triceps Pressdown
Bend arms behind your head, creating a right angle. Keep elbows tucked in and abdominals tight, and slowly straighten the arms, creating tension in the back of the arms. Hold for one second, and slowly return to arms bent. Repeat 12 to 15 times.
2a. Lateral Raises
Stand with your feet hip distance apart. Hold a two- to five-pound dumbbell in each hand so your palms face in toward the sides of your body.
2b. Lateral Raises
Standing with knees slightly bent and looking straight ahead with abs tight, keep your arms straight, and slowly lift the arms away from the body until you are barely at shoulder height. Pause for a quick second, and slowly lower the dumbbells just short of the start position. Repeat 12 to 15 times.
3a. Standing Bicep Curls
Stand with your feet hip distance apart. Hold a five- to 10-pound dumbbell in each hand so your palms face in toward the sides of your body.
3b. Standing Bicep Curls
Slowly bend the elbows, bringing the dumbbells up toward your shoulder. Stop about two to three inches from your shoulder, then slowly lower the weight and return to the starting position. Repeat 12 to 15 times.
