" Special Note For Birdwatchers..." Top 5 Page for this destination Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur Favorite Tip by Porteplume
Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur Favorites: 63 reviews and 63 photos
Favorite thing: .
C'est dans le Midi de la France que l'on trouve l'empire de la Camargue. Une région qui connait un nombre impréssionnant de diverse variétés d'oiseaux.
A special note from the WEB for people who loves birds, as my friends Steve-brdwtchr & Dave-traveldave :
In the south of France, you will find the empire of the Camargue . This is the region with the most diverse bird species. This huge marshy region, which covers the former Rhône delta, is not only the chosen country of the white horse. Dozens of bird species also visit this grandiose site. The local stars are: the pink flamingo, the cattle egret, the little egret ,and the marsh harrier .
The Camargue alone is an unforgettable sight, with its countless ponds, its pastures, its marshes and its islands of green spaces covered in olive-trees and pretty aromatic shrubs. Reeds cover the small Camargue houses and protect fields and hamlets from the violence of the winds. In winter, Bewick's swans and great egrets find refuge on this fertile soil, made up of thousands of tons of alluvia deposited by rivers over the centuries.

I took this picture outside my husbands window when he was in ICU, when he was assaulted and I almost lost him. He recovered and was back to work in 2 weeks. I believe with my whole heart that Laminine gave his body what it needed to heal itself and This dragonfly was there to tell me he would be okay. Dragonfly is a symbol of Love Hope and Change. #Laminine

Tar Heels roll to Chapel Hill Regional final
Published: Saturday, May 30, 2009 at 9:26 p.m.
Last Modified: Saturday, May 30, 2009 at 9:26 p.m.
CHAPEL HILL North Carolina is still playing like one of the favorites to get to the College World Series.
Ben Bunting, Levi Michael and Kyle Seager each drove in three runs Saturday to help the Tar Heels beat Coastal Carolina 14-5 in the NCAA regionals. That pushed the Tar Heels, the tournaments No. 4 national seed, to within a victory of advancing to next weeks super regionals.
The Tar Heels (44-16) are now 11-0 at home over the last four seasons in regional games and are in search of their fourth straight berth in the College World Series. They face the winner of an elimination game between Kansas and Coastal Carolina (47-15) on Sunday.
Dustin Ackley finished 4 for 4, part of a 17-hit day for the Tar Heels.
We needed to hit some balls in the gap and get runners in scoring position, and we were able to do that, North Carolina coach Mike Fox said. We had big performances from just about everyone in the lineup and it was good to see. We needed a game like this.
The offensive showing offset a shaky day from starter Alex White, who allowed five runs and four hits in 4 2-3 innings. But reliever Colin Bates (4-2) slowed the Chanticleers, scattering one hit over 3 1-3 innings.
North Carolina went ahead for good on Buntings three-run double with the bases loaded in the bottom half of the third inning. Then, after Coastals Rico Noel and Daniel Bowman hit solo home runs, Seager hit a single to center that pushed the lead back to 8-5 in the fifth.
Jose Iglesias hit a two-run double in the third to lead Coastals offense, while Cody Wheeler (10-1) took the loss after allowing four hits and six runs in 2 2-3 innings.
Things didnt go the way we had hoped they would go, Coastal coach Gary Gilmore said. Obviously Ill take all the blame for my team. We werent very prepared to get the job done and get their hitters out.

At those Chamber of Commerce get-togethers, you reckon some mention could be directed to Lancaster's Main Street?
Why is the spiffy-looking American Legion fairground area so seldom used? Why no fancy lights along our row of banks coming into town?
Somebody must still own the old empty buildings on Main. Couldn't the city ask the owners to spread a little cheerful paint on the exteriors, and drop the tax millage a little?
Editor's note: This letter responds to a story about a 35 percent increase in health care premiums for the city of Lancaster and its employees.
The front page of Wednesday's edition must be an error! President Obama said we were going to save $2,500 per year with his Obamacare scam.
I also think it is absurd that the city is paying 75 percent of the cost of employee health insurance, when most private sector jobs have barely 60 percent of the cost paid by their employers.
Just more fleecing of the taxpayers.
Our good Lord works in mysterious ways! I had just left my son's house at Cedar Pines Lake and started home to work in my yard, and something told me to go by and check on my friend and brother-in-law Louie Belk.
As I came up to his house, my phone ran, and Louie said, "Sherrill, where are you? I have fallen and I'm bleeding and I need to go to the doctor!" I told him, "Louie, I'm here at your back door now."
Editor's note: Rick Jiran, vice president of community relations for Duke Energy in South Carolina, gave the commencement address at Limestone College in Gaffney last Thursday. Here's some of his advice on job hunting.
Companies aren't looking for reasons to hire you. They are looking for reasons not to hire you.
The headline on this column is not a wish or an aspiration – it's a statement of fact.
For years now, economic development people and politicians have talked about building the technology sector like it was the Holy Grail, and the Holy Land was Silicon Valley. With the help of some clever marketers who came up with cute names – there is now a Silicon Something sprouting up almost everywhere you look – Silicon Alley (New York City), Silicon Shore (Santa Barbara), Silicon Hills (Austin), Silicon Mountain (Denver), Silicon Forrest (Portland), etc.
As we head toward Memorial Day 2016, I am not only thinking of fellow veterans who have fallen but thinking of the 56 Founding Fathers who signed a document almost 240 years ago that changed the world.
The last sentence of the Declaration of Independence ends with "...we mutually pledge to each other our Lives, our Fortunes and our sacred honor."
To the Indian Land community:
It has been less than a month since we lost our home to a massive fire. We are truly thankful that our family is safe, which is the most important aspect of this whole experience.
We would like to express our thanks to the Indian Land community for all of the support during this difficult time. We would like to extend a heartfelt thank you for all of your generous donations of time, household goods, clothing, money, gift certificates and the like.
I am writing this letter on behalf of all animals in kill shelters. Our animals are being murdered. I beg the public to adopt these animals.
I had one of the smartest cats to ever live. He could talk. His voice is on file with UNC Charlotte. He was on the TV show "That's Incredible." He made national news. YouTube search "Blackie the Talking Cat, Cat vs. Court" on your computer.
But this letter is not about my cat. It is to save animals from kill shelters. Animals have personalities, just like humans.

I want to travel with Ryainair and/or Easyjet from my hometown to a destination that those companies do serve but not directly from my hometown. Is there a site that can help with these kind of requests (to match arrival and departure hours of different flights of the same airline)?
Low-cost airline transfers are non-protected even if you fly with the same airline on both legs, which is why they typically won't show up in a search. Not only that, you will have to book each leg separately (again, even if they're with the same low-cost airline).
If you search with SkyScanner, tick the option "Non-protected transfers" under "Multi-part booking". This is not checked by default.
I'm not sure where to find this option on other engines or if it even exists.

Big Sky Baby

Chapter One
Jeff Forsythe was back in town.
All right, Jilly Davis thought, maybe temporarily, but he was home just the same. And it was a darn good thing, because
she could really use a friend in the flesh right now, not to mention a hug.
When Jeff left to join the forestry service five years ago, Jilly had felt somewhat abandoned. But unlike every other
male she'd known, he'd called her every week, insisting on maintaining their friendship.
Jilly scanned the green, woodsy interior of the florist shop Jeff had loaned her the money to buy. She hoped he liked
what she'd done to the place, especially the window display that changed every couple of days.
She'd gotten a deal on Gerber daisies this week, and using pots of the pastel-hued flowers and a quaint cast-iron
bench, she'd created a parklike setting to catch the eyes of the locals who passed by.
Jeff had always said she was artistic, and apparently he'd been right. Jilly's Lilies was a blooming success.
Imagine that. The scruffy little Davis girl from the wrong side of the tracks was now a genuine member of the Rumor
Chamber of Commerce - and a homeowner to boot. That was quite a feat for someone like her to accomplish, especially at
the ripe old age of twenty-three.
Who would have guessed?
No one but Jeff Forsythe, that's for sure.
What made their mismatched friendship even more surprising was the fact that he'd been born with the proverbial silver
spoon in his mouth.
Jeff often referred to himself as a shirttail relative of the MonMart Kingsleys, but the shirttail had been made of the
finest imported silk.
His socialite mother had been Carolyn Kingsley's younger sister, and when she died in a fiery car accident,
six-year-old Jeff was sent to live with his aunt and uncle on the Kingsley ranch.
Jeff was a very wealthy man by virtue of his mother's money alone. The Kingsley riches only added to his considerable
worth. But you'd never know it by looking at him. Jeff was one of the most unassuming guys Jilly had ever met.
More times than she could count, Jeff had ventured over to her run-down, trashy side of the tracks, something that had
caused his wealthy, straitlaced Aunt Carolyn a great deal of worry. Still, the social icon of Rumor hadn't been able to
discourage their friendship. Nor had the passing of time.
Jilly hadn't seen Jeff in five years, but she doubted he'd changed much. Tall, lanky. Dark hair,
nice but serious smile. He was the one constant force in her life.
And her very best friend.
She'd missed him something fierce when he left town, but their friendship continued to flourish over the telephone and
through a jillion emails.
Who needed Dear Abby when a girl had her very own Jeff Forsythe to keep her in line, to listen to her problems, to
encourage her hopes and dreams?
Jilly had a penchant for getting herself into one jam or another, and Jeff's friendship had proven to be an invaluable
asset. She had a feeling he actually liked coming to her rescue, although he probably wouldn't admit it. Either way,
the years had only deepened their relationship.
Each time the bell on the florist shop door rang, she glanced up from her work, hoping to see her old friend. At a
quarter to five the bell chimed again, and this time her glance was rewarded.
Only it wasn't the gangly kid she remembered who stood in the doorway of her shop. It was a tall, dark-haired god of
epic proportions - a sight worthy of a gasp, a second glance or an all-out gaping stare.
Lanky Jeff Forsythe had filled out, grown up and aged to perfection. When he removed his aviator glasses, eyes the
color of the Montana sky locked on hers, piercing her heart and sending a swarm of bewildered butterflies to her tummy.
If Jeff hadn't grown used to feminine appreciation, he'd better.
His smile broadened, revealing a set of dashing dimples. "Hey, good-lookin'. Where can I find the owner of this
"You found her, flyboy." Jilly hoped he hadn't seen or sensed her reaction to the sight of him.
Sheesh. Talk about buff and good-looking. If he weren't her best friend, she might find herself gawking at him. Heck,
she was gawking at him.
Get a grip, Jilly told herself. It's only Jeff.
"I hope you stopped by to give me a hug," she said, trying desperately to thwart a runaway sexual attraction to her
That's right. Her friend.
"It's good to see you, Jilly." His deep voice settled around her, cloaking her in crushed velvet and causing her heart
to slip a gear before jetting into overdrive.
She dropped a sprig of greenery on the table and dashed into his arms, eager to feel his familiar embrace.
He lifted her from the floor as though she were merely a rag doll, and a musky, woodsy scent accosted her. She
struggled to act nonchalant, unaffected by his touch.
Who was this gorgeous guy? And what had he done with her best friend?
"I missed you," she said, although she hadn't realized how much until he'd walked in the door.
"Maybe I should hang on tight so you can't get away."
Jeff held Jilly close, savoring the earthy scent of flowers and spice. It had been too damn long since he'd seen the
little brown-haired girl with the chipped-tooth smile.
He'd missed her, too.

Linde Profit Beats Estimates on China, North America
Linde AG, the world's second-biggest maker of industrial gases, reported first-quarter profit that beat analyst estimates on sales of liquefied gases in China and cylinder gas in North America.
Earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortization advanced 6.2 percent to 808 million euros ($1.06 billion), the Munich-based company said today. Analysts surveyed by Bloomberg had estimated 802.5 million euros.
The gas maker is building two air-separation plants in Yantai and a plant for hydrogen and carbon in Chongqing in China as it boosts the proportion of sales it gets from emerging markets. Business was "robust" in North America, Linde added, echoing comments from larger rival Air Liquide SA last week that demand is rising in North America and developing economies.
"Our profitable growth trend is intact," Chief Financial Officer Georg Denoke said on a conference call. "The start was softer from a global recovery perspective in January and February. But we have seen a very strong March, if not to say the strongest March ever."
Chief Executive Officer Wolfgang Reitzle said that he's confident of meeting targets for earnings and sales growth this year as the company acquires Air Products & Chemicals Inc.'s home care business for $752 million.
Pace of Recovery
"The pace of economic recovery still varies from region to region," Linde said in the release. "The highest growth rates were once again to be seen in the emerging economies. Robust trends were also visible in North America, whereas the increase in demand in Western Europe was relatively modest."
The shares fell 1.6 percent to 126.50 euros at 9:52 a.m. in Frankfurt. Germany's benchmark DAX index was down 0.4 percent at that time. Linde has gained 10 percent this year for a market value of 21.7 billion euros.
Quarterly sales rose 5.4 percent to 3.51 billion euros, beating a 3.47 billion-euro analyst estimate. Net income gained 1.1 percent to 287 million euros, ahead of a 268.3 million-euro prediction in the Bloomberg survey.
The company also reiterated a target for operating profit of at least 4 billion euros in 2014 and return on capital employed of at least 14 percent.

I hope someone can help me. My daughter has been totally potty trained since she was 3 years old - that means during the day, at night, the whole deal. Now she's 4 and, for some reason, has starting wetting the bed at night. Has anyone else ever had this happen to them? What on earth caused this and how do I get it to stop? I'm not getting very many questions answered by her. Please help!!!

The AO-40 award idea sounds pretty good to me! AO-40 is not a single channel bird, there really will be room for everyone. 10 contacts is not an unreasonable number at all. On AO-13 we used to have round table discussions with as many as ten people (remember the AMSAT nets on the bird?). Working 20 stations in an hour was not uncommon, during field day we often worked more than 20 and hour. It seems that many have missed the point of the "Field Day brouhaha". The point is the FM birds are not good Field Day birds. I didn't hear anyone on the list complaining about over use of AO-10 during Field Day (In fact the opposite was true) or even FO-20 or 29. My Opinion, 73, Joe > > [...] > > ... But I'm thinking back to the brouhaha about Field Day. ... > > It seems like disallowing the use of AO-40 for Field Day points may > make a lot more sense, at least based on the chatter on this list. > ---- Via the amsat-bb mailing list at AMSAT.ORG courtesy of AMSAT-NA.

Alicia Keys, Beyoncé, Rihanna and More Made a Powerful Video Condemning Police Brutality
Failing to signal a lane change, riding in your girlfriend's car with a child in the back and walking home with a friend are just 3 of the 23 arbitrary reasons why you could be killed if you are black in America, as Alicia Keys, Beyoncé and Janelle Monáe point out in a powerful new video condemning police brutality.
The collaborative effort between Alicia Keys, Mic and the We Are Here Movement highlights just how easy it is for blacks to be killed for performing everyday actions — in other words, for nothing more than the color of their skin. Joining Alicia, Bey and Janelle are some of the biggest names in entertainment including Rihanna, A$AP Rocky, Chance the Rapper and Pharrell. In the grainy, resolutely colorless snippets, each celebrity speaks for a victim of police brutality, describing the act that was their death sentence (with the exception of Bono, who represents the nine men and women who died en route to Bible study). An incredulous Taraji P. Henson almost loses it as she memorializes Alton Sterling, who was shot to death for the crime of "selling CDs outside of a supermarket." (more…)

Dick's Cafe: Dick's Cafe Simple Local Flavor
Dick's Cafe is where you'll find municipal employee's trucks out front for breakfast and lunch. Low key kinda place with fantastic breakfast food, mexican food, american food and no frills.
Favorite Dish: The breakfast burrito smothered with green chili. The green chili is hot here. And yummy. Their green chili cheese/hamburgers are legendary here. The mexican food is typical for the area and absolutely worth ordering. Service is efficient and not overly friendly. they are usually very busy and seem to need more waitstaff--no complaints though.

International Delights: THE Local Place for Coffee, Food, Hangout
International Delights or (ID) as locals say it, has a patio, small middle eastern shop, sodas, turkish coffee, salads, and lots of mid east dishes including daily specials like salmon, steak, soups and curry chicken. They open at 7:00 a.m. and close at Midnight. Fantastic hours for a Las Cruces eatery. The food is fresh. Vegetarian dishes like the Mezza plate or the Veggie sandwich are popular. When we want to meet someone to go over a poem or do an interview or eat after a reading we always go to ID. The Patio is beatiful and has a fountain. The view overlooks parking lot, but people watching is good.
It gets hot hot hot on the patio in summer as it faces south. Their breakfast is lacking with things like Kefta but they do offer sweets like cheescakes and Baklava. You stand in line to order and they give you a number. It can be absolutely packed during lunch and dinner. The service is Always slow not matter when you go. The portions are ample but they are chintzy with things like their feta cheese, yoghurt dip and olives.
Favorite Dish: I really like the Gyro Sandwich with Falafel stuffed inside when I am super hungry. It is very tasty and satisfying and pour on the cucumber yoghurt dip. The fries are great. I usually order the mezza plate though. It has a sampling of tabouli, hummus, olives, dolmas and delicious pita bread. It is overpriced but hits the spot. The flavored cold sodas are excellent.
Address: Idaho and El Paseo.
Directions: ID is in the corner of Idaho Square a few doors down from Albertsons. You are better off parking in the back of the place on the East side of the restaurant. They have wireless too.

Dickey's BBQ Pit: Dickey's BBQ Pit Since 1941
Since 1941, Dickey's from Texas has expanded to many states, including Las Cruces, New Mexico where I dined (twice) and the food, friendly staff and great/easily-accessible locations along interstate freeways.
Open for lunch and dinner, you can smell the BBQ as soon as you arrive in the parking lot and when you enter the rustic but comfortable and interesting interior, you REALLY get the urge to enjoy the BBQ flavors emanating from the kitchen area.
Favorite Dish: I LOVED the smoked BBQ pulled pork sandwich with all the fixings.
Real BBQ flavor, lots of extras including big dill pickles, beans, coleslaw and even a free ice cream cone!

Cattlemen's: Great Steaks and Seafood
As you may guess from the name, Cattlemen's is not for vegetarians. They offer a variety of steaks, chicken, seafood and some Mexican dishes. The decor is decidedly western with saddles, western paintings, a cutout of John Wayne and even a room with wagons in the back. The place also has a small sports bar/lounge attached. Maybe a tiny bit more expensive than average.
Favorite Dish: I had the Teriyaki Chicken which was recommended by the waitress. It was very good.

I would recommend this restaurant based on the price, service and great food. The best food, however, hands down was at Carnitas Queretaro.

La Posta de Mesilla: Wow, this ain't TexMex!
The food is spicey so be careful! The resturant is in the 1840's Historic Old Butterfield Stage Building. The lobby has parots and piranhas for you to look at while you wait for a table.
Favorite Dish: I always oder a margarita and a combination plate. They also have a wonderful soup; Caldillo. I hear the desserts are wonderful but I'm always too full to order one.

We relaxed in the Bean coffee shop where I had some green chili soup. I was surprise that coffee shops in New Mexico do not have chili
flavored coffee. There are seasonal places in NYC where you can get chili coffee and hot chocolate.

Grand Buffet and Sushi: Decent Buffet
I tend to avoid buffets lately because they are not really on my diet and like many I tend to overeat. I stopped in here because it was near my hotel and it was the only place within easy walking distance. They had a variety of dishes on the buffet line but they were not that fresh and only average tasting. Service was average at best too. Okay for a buffet but not really recommended. Hours are 11 AM to 9:30 PM Sunday through Thursday, and 11 AM to 10 PM on Friday and Saturday.

Uno Chicago Grill: Gotta love the cold cold beer!
Originally a pizza-themed restaurant, this place has expanded its menu to include a HUGE variety. Whatever I have in mind, I'm always sure to find something not only suitable, but exceptional. Also, big kudos for some of the coldest (and cheapest!) beer in town - Sam Adams even makes a special ale just for them. (did i mention i like beer? lol)
Besides their pizzas, don't miss the "pizza skins" or the 'rattlesnake pasta' - tastes like chicken is what my server said. (in fact, IS chicken, which made her pun that much cuter!)
Love this place, and will continue to frequent when I can.
Favorite Dish: I adore the rattlesnake pasta here - it is penne pasta (multigrain option) tossed in a spicy jalapeno-laced alfredo sauce. Topped off with grilled chicken (which is somehow WAY more moist and tender than the chicken breasts I grill at home...). There's cheddar cheese over the top and it's served with a breadstick (they tell me they are made there, and they do taste way to fresh for that to be a lie). Anyhow, I'm pretty picky about the texture of my pasta, but this is just perfect. Try it, you'll love it.

This summer, we'll be gathering for our conference, Bioenergy 2016: Mobilizing the Bioeconomy through Innovation, on July 12–14, at the Walter E. Washington Convention Center in Washington, D.C., in partnership with the Clean Energy Research & Education Foundation.
The inaugural 2016 Sustainable Transportation Summit will serve as a forum to share ideas and perspectives on opportunities to accelerate the commercialization and deployment of advanced transportation technologies and smart mobility systems over the next decade.
The 2016 National Algal Biofuels Technology Review, which was just released today, captures the exciting achievements of the field of algal biofuels, as well as articulates new challenges, lessons learned, and critical next steps.
The Energy Department's Bioenergy Technologies Office (BETO) works to enable a sustainable bioenergy industry that protects natural resources and advances environmental, economic, and social benefits. BETO recently sponsored a five-day Bioenergy Study Tour of the southeastern United States to highlight innovations that are bringing the industry one step closer to these goals.
The U.S. Department of Energy's (DOE's) recent Co-Optimization of Fuels and Engines Initiative (Co-Optima) seeks to combine previously independent areas of biofuels and engine-combustion research and development to design new fuels and engines that are co-optimized—designed in tandem to maximize vehicle performance and carbon efficiency.
A new biomass production strategy offers a more efficient, cost-effective, and integrated approach to the utilization of our nation's biomass resources.
Through a project supported by the Energy Department's Vehicle Technologies Office, researchers at Stanford University have been able to produce silicon structures for lithium-ion batteries from rice husks, a waste product of this ubiquitous agricultural crop.
Advances in synthetic biology—which involves engineering biological systems for new uses—can offer innovative solutions to improve advanced biofuel production. This, in turn, can speed up the development and commercialization of biofuels, making them attractive and affordable to industrial manufacturers.
It will cost about $600 billion over the next 20 years to continue reliably transporting and treating wastewater, according to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). Find out how the Department of Energy collaborated with the National Science Foundation and EPA to explore a smarter future for water treatment.
Recently I had the pleasure of briefing members of Congress on EERE's groundbreaking fuel-engine co-optimization initiative. The new, multi-year project combines previously independent areas of biofuels and engine combustion research and development (R&D) to design new fuels and engines that are co-optimized—designed in tandem to both maximize vehicle performance and carbon efficiency.
This week at the Advanced Bioeconomy Leadership Conference, the U.S. Department of Agriculture's (USDA) Chief Scientist, Dr. Catherine Woteki, announced the release of the Federal Activities Report on the Bioeconomy. This report was developed to inform Americans of current federal agency activities that are helping to develop and support what we call the "bioeconomy"--an emerging part of the U.S. economy that relies on renewable biological resources to produce fuels, power, and bio-based products.
Methane is both a powerful energy source and a potent greenhouse gas. When it's extracted from the earth as natural gas and burned for heating and electricity, it emits carbon dioxide (CO2) but burns more cleanly than some other energy sources such as coal. However, when methane escapes into the atmosphere, it traps 25 times more heat radiation than CO2. That's why some people are concerned with the environmental consequences of methane leaks during the process of fracking.
On a bright, crisp October morning in Iowa, I had the privilege to speak at the grand opening of DuPont's cellulosic ethanol biorefinery—the fourth biorefinery of its kind in the United States and the largest in the world. This impressive plant is equipped to produce 30 million gallons of ethanol each year from the leftover stalks and leaves of the corn plant, called corn stover.
This Halloween season, the U.S. Department of Energy's Bioenergy Technologies Office (BETO) is highlighting how waste can be "brought back to life" and turned into something useful. On average, Americans generate over 200 million tons of waste per year, or nearly 4.38 pounds per person per day. Significant opportunity exists to convert this and other waste sources into liquid transportation fuels.
At the Energy Department's Bioenergy Technologies Office, we're actively working to develop the advanced biofuels industry in a way that leads to positive impacts and that demonstrates responsible stewardship of the environment. Biofuel production is closely tied to the environment—for example, energy crops can affect soil and water resources as well as wildlife populations, and water and energy are required to convert energy crops to fuel at a biorefinery.
It might not be long before the 1.3 billion pounds of pumpkins produced annually in the U.S. are as important for our energy security as they are for Halloween.
An international consortium of five companies and organizations came together in a joint effort to transform woody biomass, including trees and wood waste, into a gasoline product suitable for use in today's automobiles. The collaborative project was cost shared between the project participants and the U.S. Department of Energy's Office of Bioenergy Technologies Office (BETO) using funding provided by the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act.
For every barrel of crude oil used in the United States, 16% goes toward making products ranging from everyday plastics to specialty chemicals in addition to making liquid fuels. From deli containers to industrial lubricants, these chemicals and products are a crucial, yet almost invisible part of our daily lives.
A team of five freshmen from Williamsburg High School for Architecture and Design in Brooklyn, New York—designed an infographic on the benefits of cellulosic ethanol and were invited as guests to the eight annual conference, Bioenergy 2015, in Washington, D.C.
We chatted with one of the Energy Department's leading molecular biologists, Dr. Amanda Barry, who is working to create biofuels from algae at Los Alamos National Laboratory.
Algae shows great potential as a homegrown and renewable fuel source. Here's why it will be a big part of our nation's energy mix sooner than you might expect.
Selling corn stover—the non-edible corn stalks, husks, and leaves of a corn plant—after the corn harvest has generated a new revenue stream for many farmers. Biorefineries buy the corn plant residue from farmers and turn it into cellulosic ethanol, allowing farmers to "add revenue without adding acres."
Energy Department technology Offices showcase how EERE's strategic investments in sustainable transportation technologies are improving vehicle efficiency and advancing the use of alternative fuel vehicles.
At the Bioenergy Technologies Office, we're working with public and private partners to develop an industry of advanced biofuels and bioproducts from non-food biomass sources that is commercially and environmentally sustainable. In the United States, our energy landscape is changing, and biofuels can play an important role since it is the only near-term liquid transportation fuel alternative to petroleum.
We are very excited to announce our first ever bioenergy quiz—an online, interactive tool that's both enlightening and entertaining! Interested in participating? Just click the link in the photo above and let the game begin.

Marvel Assembles an Official Title for Third "Avengers" Movie
Comic Books, Film
With the release this morning of ICv2.com's estimates of direct-market sales for November comes this interesting tidbit: DC Comics' "Blackest Night Promotional Rings" initiative gave a significant boost to the titles involved.
The ordering incentive allowed retailers who purchased a certain number of copies of seven titles — Adventure Comics #4, Blackest Night #5, Booster Gold #26, Doom Patrol #4, Justice League of America #39, Outsiders #24 and R.E.B.E.L.S. #10 — to buy bags of the corresponding color plastic rings.
Blackest Night #5, which as we noted last week led a Top 10 dominated by DC, saw a 5-percent increase, with estimated sales of 145,000.
The promotion also helped to nudge Justice League and Adventure Comics into the Top 10, but it was lower-tier books that received the most obvious benefit. Booster Gold, Doom Patrol, Outsiders and R.E.B.E.L.S., which previously had skulked along the far reaches of the Top 100 — and, in one case, well beyond — shot up the chart in November.
Booster Gold #26 and Doom Patrol #4, whose previous issues clocked in at No. 98 and No. 108, respectively, were propelled into the Top 25. For Booster Gold, that little orange ring meant a difference of about 35,525 copies.
November apparently was decent for monthly comics in general, with ICv2.com estimating a 12-percent increase over the same month in 2008. Graphic novels registered a 26-percent drop — its eight straight month of declines — due largely to the strong performance of Watchmen last year.
I wonder how many of those Booster Gold comics are still sitting on the shelves?
Doom Patrol #4 was excellent, and R.E.B.E.L.S. was pretty good.
Not too many, since many stores required a purchase of Booster Gold to get the corresponding ring.
My store sold out of Booster pretty quickly, and the rest of them are down to less than ten copies, on orders that doubled, and in some case tripled or quadrupled the standard orders. It was harder ordering the next, non-ring bearing issues, but we ordered a little heavier, being cautiously optimistic about the books hanging onto some of those sales.
Oh, we also required the purchase of the comic to go along with the ring.
So this is what it has come to? Throwing in a little plastic ring to try and sell a comic? You wonder how many of these were purchased by someone under 21.
Why NOT little plastic rings? They didn't detract from the quality of the books they came with (or contribute to the quality, unfortunately in the case of Justice League), and maybe a lot of those people who bought them will actually read the comic and get hooked on it. Booster Gold and Doom Patrol are enjoyable series by some quality creators, but probably wouldn't get noticed without something like this.
It's a lot better than pandering to the lowest-common denominator with lots of poorly-done guns and boobs and swearing to make them sell (not that any of those things are not fun to have around when done right, of course). As long as we don't see DC or Marvel substitute promotional trinkets for actual storytelling to sell comics, there's nothing wrong with this.
Hope the people who bought the comics for the rings find the stories interesting enough they'll get the 2nd parts of all the stories this month.
But we'll see.
My store sold out pretty quickly on all of the comics. They even had to re-order more copies of REBELS, which is saying something as they normally sell only about 3 copies a month of it…
I agree, it's a promotion. Not unlike the cereal box freebies. Geez.

Next, aim for Good Memory 20http://www.xbox360achievements.org/i...isc/g-icon.gif. Start a new game on easy difficulty, complete the game without marking mines but reveal all other blocks. This also grants Good Start 10http://www.xbox360achievements.org/i...isc/g-icon.gif.
Finally go for Savior of the World 15http://www.xbox360achievements.org/i...isc/g-icon.gif. Win a game on both medium and hard difficulty, that's it!
Old school Minesweeper game, free from Windows 8 Marketplace. Why don't you have a try?

Win a game on both medium and hard difficulty.
http://www.xbox360achievements.org/i...4/+CTukw==.jpgGood Start (10) http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/site/gp-g.png
Complete a minefield for the first time
Start a new game on easy difficulty, complete the game.
You will possibly unlock Good Memory along the way if you complete it without marking any flags.
http://www.xbox360achievements.org/i...4/+gXnJg==.jpgHappens to Everybody (5) http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/site/gp-g.png
Trigger your first mine
Start a game on any difficulty and click on a mine intentionally.
http://www.xbox360achievements.org/i...4/+wuxPw==.jpgGood Memory (20) http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/site/gp-g.png
Complete a minefield for the first time without using any flags
Start a new game on easy difficulty, complete the game without marking mines but reveal all the other blocks.
Edit: Won on small and medium again and achievement unlocked.
I had to win medium two times.
Also the requirements of the achievement are different than in the game. In the game it says "Win in each board size".
Also2, this is game is very buggy and freezes a lot.
You can replay the same board when you fail. I took a picture of each board with my phone after failing and then when you replay it, you know exactly where each mine is.
For anyone that wants to get all achievements in less than 20 minutes:
1 - Play a board and try to hit a mine as fast as possible.
2 - Choose View Board and then hit Alt + Print Screen to save a high quality picture to your clipboard.
3 - Open up paint and press Ctrl + V to paste the picture, then hit F11 to go full screen.
4 - Choose Play Same Board in Minesweeper then just Alt + Tab between Paint and Minesweeper.
Your mouse should line up perfectly on both so you can just put it over a mine in paint, Alt+ Tab and you'll be on the same square in Minesweeper. Probably the easiest game to get all points in regardless of skill.
I cheated on the expert board. Took a picture of the board with my iPad, played the same board and bingo, I won.
I played the expert board for probably 60 minutes before going the cheating route.
Played and won on easy, medium and expert 4 times each and the Saviour of the World achievement still wont unlock. Anybody got any ideas?
*EDIT* Weird, unlocked whilst I was playing another game, definitely buggy!
You have two achievement descriptions backwards.
Also, I actually got an achievement that didn't show up in the game (complete without flags), but when I looked on xbox.com, it registered, so that achievement might be glitchy.
I swear I won a game on each difficulty and I never received an achievement any body else this issue.
Their seems to be a glitch and the game won't show you receiving an achievement. But if you exit then reload the game, then it will show it as unlocked. Happened to me with the "Good Start" achievement, it was making me mad then I exited and it showed it as unlocked.

Video Industry News Video Company News Technology Industry News Technology Company News Novelty Industry News Novelty Company News Gay Industry News Gay Company News Legal Industry News All Company News
Released: Mar 01st, 1999
Running Time: 78
Director: Toni English
Company: Vivid Entertainment Group
Cast: Sindee Coxx, Roxanne Hall, Jenteal, Dakota (I), Jon Dough, Mr. Marcus, Mila (I), Brad Armstrong
Critical Rating: AAA
Genre: Feature
The marital indiscretion device will appeal to couples looking for naughty stories about themselves -- also, Mila fans will smile brightly when they see her fire up her trademark jet of pussy sauce.
Jenteal remodels apartments. She also strips for the still camera of Brad Armstrong. Let's just say she's multi-disciplinary.
At regular intervals, Jenteal addresses the camera and philosophizes on male/female dynamics. Her husband Jon Dough is cheating on her, once with Mila (passionate) and another time with Dakota (dispassionately). Of course Jenteal gets even. She sucks off a soggy Armstrong for three minutes before bending over for a 120-second fuck (snore). When Jenteal gets back in our faces to narrate, she explains that her husband couldn't care less, and you can see why.
The best scene has Roxanne Hall going the distance with Mr. Marcus. A horrible soundtrack reminiscent of '80's porn numbs the proceedings.

NEI Team Investigates Ocular Effects Among Ebola Survivors »
"Following the 2014 Ebola outbreak in West Africa that took the lives of more than 11,200 people in the region, the National Eye Institute, part of the National Institutes of Health, has deployed a team of clinicians and technical experts to Monro"...
Read the NEI Team Investigates Ocular Effects Among Ebola Survivors article »
In vitro and in vivo animal studies have shown that cromolyn sodium inhibits the degranulation of sensitized mast cells which occurs after exposure to specific antigens. Cromolyn sodium acts by inhibiting the release of histamine and SRS-A (slow-reacting substance of anaphylaxis) from the mast cell.
Another activity demonstrated in vitro is the capacity of cromolyn sodium to inhibit the degranulation of nonsensitized rat mast cells by phospholipase A and the subsequent release of chemical mediators. Another study showed that cromolyn sodium did not inhibit the enzymatic activity of released phospholipase A on its specific substrate.
Cromolyn sodium has no intrinsic vasoconstrictor, antihistamine, or anti-inflammatory activity.
Cromolyn sodium is poorly absorbed. When multiple doses of cromolyn sodium ophthalmic solution are instilled into normal rabbit eyes, less than 0.07% of the administered dose of cromolyn sodium is absorbed into the systemic circulation (presumably by way of the eye, nasal passages, buccal cavity and gastrointestinal tract). Trace amounts (less than 0.01%) of the cromolyn sodium dose penetrate into the aqueous humor and clearance from this chamber is virtually complete within 24 hours after treatment is stopped. In normal volunteers, analysis of drug excretion indicates that approximately 0.03% of cromolyn sodium is absorbed following administration to the eye.

Crossign Spectacular Bridges
Tianjin has been a major river port where several rivers meet here in a confluence and flow into "Haihe" river. "Haihe" means to "Ocean River" as Tianjin is located 50km from the sea.
What is fascinating is not only the number of bridges of over 20 in the downtown area but the unique designs each bridge - both traditional and modern.
Several of them have pedestrian walkways and you can get to the middle of the river to take your photographs and see the views of both sides of the river. The main train station is on the opposite side than downtown Tianjin.
Visit the original "Gou Bu Li" Restaurant
This is the original branch "ben hang" of Tianjin famous "Gou Bu Li" dumpling.
Every local Chinese tourist will make it a point to visit this restaurant which is easy reach from the main pedestrian shop street. In there you will be see photographs of previous visits of famous Chinese political leaders.
While there is not much to do except to order the famous dumplings and said that you have been there. Or just take your photo outside this "establishment".
Nowadays, you can find Gou Bu Li (GBL) restaurants all over Tianjin, Beijing, China as well as a popular dish in Chinese restaurants worldwide. And tis is where it started.
Address: Downtown Tianjin
Famous Catholic Church - Xi Kai Church
It is a beautiful church built by French Jesuit missionary in the 190s.
Located at the end of pedestrian mall street, you can see it from a distance. There is a wonderful fountain in front of the church but across the road.
There are 4 Chinese characters welcoming everyone to "ome in for a look"
It still an active church and worth going in for a look. One of the legacies of Western Allied forces occupying in China at the beginning of the 20th century until World War 2.
Address: Dushan Road. Downtown Tianjin.
"He Ping" Pedestrian Shopping Street
"He Ping" which means "Peace and Harmony" is another major pedestrian shopping street, as long though narrow in width than Binjiang Pedestrian Shopping Street.
It is also a great way to get from one end of Tianjin downtown to the other end by strolling along this motor free road. Of course, you can choose to sit on one of the electric trams that ply on these pedestrian streets.
You cannot really have been to Tianjin unless you drop by here for a look. There is a post office near the junction of He Ping and Bin Jiang Streets.
Address: He Ping Street, Downtown Tianjin
The French Quarters - Commercial Streets
Tianjin prewar was divided into different zones for the British, French, Italian, Russian, Japanese, American, etc.
I spent most of my time exploring the French quarters as it was largest, most preserved and easiest to find. The restored area looked like a Hollywood film set.
The main buildings in the commercial sector are now occupied by banks. Do enter into the bank and appreciate the interior with high ceilings and stained glass windows. The security guards are on the lookout and so I did not bother to try to take the photos inside.
Bin Jiang Pedestrian Shopping Street
This is a great place to start your tour of Tianjin. It is a major pedestrian shopping street together Heping street.
There are major deparment stalls especially at its corner with Nanjing Lu where many bus lines ply.
It is easy access to Xikai Church and Gou Bu Li original restaurant. You see local Tianjingers as well Chinese tourists shopping or finding a place to have lunch or a quick snack. There is no shade and so can be hot. So cool off by going into the airconditioned shops now and then.
Address: "Bin Jiang Dou" Road, downtown Tianjin
"House Built Of Potteries"
This eye-catching building in downtown Tianjin will surely turn heads.
It is built on large potteries. It evokes the same brazen appeal like the famous Gaudi buildings of Barcelona.
There is a small admission to see the inside which is like a museum and souvenir shop for all kinds of potteries. Or just take a photo closeup through the "pot".
Address: Downtown Tianjin
Hai He Riverside Walk
On both sides of the rivers, there are pleasant pedestrian walks and to cycle on if you have rented a bicycle.
In the late afternoon, it is cooler and some sections are shaded with trees while others are better to go when the sun is out.
There are not many shops yet along the pedestrian walks and hopefully they will flourish as tourism increases in this under-rated tourist destination. I am not quite sure how safe it is at night but follow the local crowd and stay in the well lit areas.
Address: Along Haihe river in downtown Tianjin
Composer park
Once on a sunday morning I took a hike,walk along the river.Very soon I ran into a beautiful,lovely little park with sculptures of different classic composers.On sunday you can watch a lot of people(mainly with bikes)meeting there.I was amazed to find the sculpture of Franz Liszt!!!It is a lovely,peaceful,small park next to the river.There is no adress for this park on a map.
Follow the river from the railwaystation to the entrance,crossover to the Golden street.Instead of crossing the bridge continue walking right side from the river -direction Ancient Culture street.Very soon you see the small park with all the sculptures.Beethoven,Mozart....even Haydn and Liszt!!Lovely!!!!Enjoyed it a lot!Very peaceful and relaxed atmosphere there on weekend.And Strauss!!!!!I love this music!!!!Felt very,very homesick there.....
Directions: next to the river,at the center,entrance to Golden street coming from the railway station
- Seniors
- Music
Tianjin TV Tower
Known as "Tian Ta", Tianjing TV Tower is one of the tallest in Asia at over 400m depending which height you measure.
There is a view platform at the top but I did not have time to go up there.
The tower is located at a small lake garden and across the street is the larger Tianjin waterpark garden.
So it is great to just being able to see the Tower close up and take a photo.
Address: South west area of Tianjin, Weijin Nan Lu Street
French Quarters - Garden Circle & Residential
Away from the business district of the French Area, is the more green and charming residential area including a garden circled by large mansions.
Here you can imagine how the French and Western foreigners will take their family to the park or on their horse carriages to church.
Not all builidings are restored yet or turned into restaurants. You can see fairly delapidated homes that have signs showing the historic and architecture significance.
Nanshi Food Street
Located near the Gu Lou (Drum Tower) area, the Nanshi Food Street is actually a popular eating place.
It is large two storey building with many restaurants inside lining up like a junction of streets of all 4 directions.
The restauarants are mainly seafood restaurants and specializing in Tianjin famous cuisines. More for sit down dining for small and larger groups. Everything is brightly light at night.
Address: Nan Men Wai Da Jie Street, near Gu Lou
Gu Wen Da Jie - Ancient Culture Street
Along the river side, Ancient Culture Street is group of street with shops that Chinese culture and arts and craft.
You can find the famous Tianjin Zhang's clay figurines on sale. There are also small performances here and there to attract local Chinese tourists.
There is also a famous Chinese temple "Tian Hou Guan" within the vicinity.
Make sure you go early as this place closed in the late afternoon. It is not like Beijing Wangfujing that is open until late at night.
Zhou En Lai Memorial
This memorial is dedicated to Zhou En Lai, one of China's famous and well admired and loved sons. Premier Zhou En Lai is known as a skilled diplomat and pragmatic statesman. Although often in the shadows of Chairman Mao Ze Dong, Premier Zhou had been reputed to played many key roles in founding of Modern China and subsequent political, social and economic development. At least, Zhou is one of my favorites.
Zhou En Lai studied in the Tianjin Middle School, then in universities in Japan and later in the Nankai University of Tianjin. Hence, it is no surprise that his memorial is located here.
By contrast, Chairman Mao has a masoleum in the middle of Tiananmen Square in downtown Beijing.
This memorial located near the Tianjin Tower at a lakeside park. There is a bus that comes in this direction and a 500m walk. Do come early as the memorial closes early around 3-4pm.
Address: Near Tianjin Tower
Gu Lou (Drum Tower)
The Gu Lou (Drum Tower) is located in the north south axis of downtown Tianjin. It is now surrounded by a major road that goes around it.
Within the vicinity of Gu Lou are many souvenir shops and eating places. Much of old imperial Tianjin has been torn down and this is an important site of the past.
Although not as impressive as Beijing, it stands out high looking down southwards to Nan Men Wai Da Jie road.

All Rise...
After a quick Google search, Appellate Judge Kent Dixon discovered that although he is a Kent Dixon, he is still not TheKent Dixon...back to the DixCave to work on those rankings!
Editor's Note
Our reviews of The Batman: The Complete Second Season (published October 9th, 2006), The Batman: The Complete Third Season (published May 2nd, 2007), The Batman: The Complete Fifth Season (published July 9th, 2008), The Batman: Complete First Season (published February 7th, 2006), The Batman: The Man Who Would Be Bat (Season 1, Volume 2) (published October 19th, 2005), and The Batman: Training For Power (Season 1, Volume 1) (published June 2nd, 2005) are also available.
The Charge
Mary Grayson (Grey DeLisle): "Okay, Dick, come on out now."
Batman (Reno Romano): "Nice save. But I thought you wanted Zucco to get
what was coming to him?"
Opening Statement
Now in its fourth season, The Batman carries the torch as the sole Batman animated series currently in production. Faithful to original characters and mythology that dates back 68 years, The Batman: The Complete Fourth Season is a solid addition to the Batman canon.
Facts of the Case
Still in the early stages of his career, and adapting to allowing more and more people into his life and onto his team, The Batman faces a new season, new villains, and the concept of taking a certain Boy Wonder under his mighty wings.
The Evidence
Batman made his first appearance in Detective Comics #27 in 1939, and was essentially in the final format we recognize today: billionaire playboy Bruce Wayne by day and brilliant crime-fighting detective by night. Lewis Wilson, Adam West, Olan Soule, Michael Keaton, Kevin Conroy, Val Kilmer, Reno Romano, Christian Bale, and Jeremy Sisto. What do these names have in common? Each of these actors have all added their voices or physical presence to the various TV and film representations of Batman.
Throughout his history, Batman has often been referred to as The Batman (like there was ever any risk of confusing him with someone else!), so it wasn't a big surprise to me when Warner Bros. produced his latest incarnation in 2004 in a show called The Batman. The Batman: The Complete Fourth Season sets the bar high as the show's best season yet and, as I write this review, the eighth episode of the show's fifth season will be airing shortly.
From the moment the Warner Bros. logo disappears from the screen, viewers enter the world of The Batman; a world where one man helps the citizens of Gotham City to sleep at night, while striking fear into the hearts of both legendary and petty criminals. This is by far one of my favorite incarnations of Batman to date. From the high-energy theme to the vibrant colors and intense action, this is what Batman is all about. This is not your grandmother's Batman…or your father's, uncle's, or second cousin's either, for that matter. The Batman forges out on its own, braving new territory and creating an entirely new mythology, outside the continuity of either the Batman comics, or previous animated incarnations like Batman: The Animated Series or Batman Beyond.
The creators and production team behind this latest incarnation of the Dark Knight clearly know what they're doing, especially in the way they've structured the series so far. Each season has added more layers to the mythology: Season One introduced viewers to a young Bruce Wayne and Batman; Season Two delivered more classic villains and great stories, while adding Commissioner James Gordon and the iconic Batsignal into the mix; Season Three added Batgirl (a bit of a surprise as Robin was Batman's first sidekick, according to the mythology) and showed Batman's skill as a mentor; and now with Season Four and the end of the Teen Titans animated series, Robin has finally been freed to join the family.
The show never fails to impress, with its solid blend of action (watch for the impressive motion blur!), comedy, and consistently strong storytelling. And in a medium where voice acting can make or break an entire concept, Reno Romano (Bruce Wayne/Batman), Evan Sabara (Robin) and Danielle Judovits (Batgirl) carry the project well, with excellent support from notable added cast members Edward James Olmos, Ming-Na, Adam West, Gina Gershon, Clancy Brown, Dan Castelleneta, Peter MacNicol, Mark Hamill, Ron Perlman, Robert Englund, and many, many others throughout the series so far.
Season Four involved some small tweaks as the character design for Batman/Bruce Wayne received a smaller nose and stronger chin, to make his look more consistent with the other DC animated universe depictions of the character. Speaking of nods to other incarnations of the Caped Crusader, one of the first things die-hard Batman fans will notice in the episode "Artifacts," is that the future depictions of both Batman and the Batmobile resemble Frank Miller's Dark Knight comic series; a nice homage indeed!
All 13 episodes of the season are included, delivering a solid baker's dozen of Batman fiction:
• "A Matter of Family"—Robin is finally added to
the series, origin story and all.
The world of Batman is often cloaked in shadow and drenched in rain, but The Batman: The Complete Fourth Season, and indeed the entire series so far, does an excellent job of delivering solid and appropriately atmospheric shadows, while hitting viewers with a regular dose of color. The visual presentation looks fantastic and shows the high level of quality one would expect from a recent production. A perfect companion to the visual presentation, the audio is completely immersive, with solid use of the surround channels, enveloping viewers in Batman's world.
Aside from the episodes themselves, the only additional content is a fairly decent featurette entitled "The Batman: Season 4 Unmasked." The show's producers, voice director, and other staff share their insights and collective opinion that Season Four has been the best to date. It's no surprise that the show is as strong as it is, when the folks behind it are so clearly passionate about their work and their efforts to create the show's most fan-friendly season so far.
The Rebuttal Witnesses
For reasons I haven't been able to discover, the show's original theme, created and performed beautifully by The Edge from U2, was replaced, starting in the third season. The new theme is decidedly more upbeat and even has some not-so-subtle nods to the '60s TV series theme, but it really doesn't suit the somewhat darker and more serious tone of this incarnation. Fortunately for fans of the original theme, it plays while the menu is displayed on this release. Although I have Adam West's autograph from seeing him at a convention as a child, I am really not a fan of his version of Batman or the '60s show as a whole. The opening sequence for The Batman has also been changed, and I actually quite like it, but a note to the producers: please bring back the original theme as it suits the tone of your show much better.
Although I really have no issue with this release specifically, I really wish someone would come along and create the Batman documentary equivalent of Look, Up In The Sky: The Amazing Story of Superman. Sure, Superman's fine and all, but he's no Batman! There is a wealth of information out there out there about the Dark Knight Detective and I'm sure fans would love to see it all covered in one comprehensive documentary.
Closing Statement
Fans of Batman in general, or of this series specifically, shouldn't hesitate for a second about picking up The Batman: The complete Fourth Season. This is a high quality show, with exceptional writing and production values, that takes the Dark Knight in some interesting and exciting new directions, while remaining true enough to the existing mythology to appease even lifelong Bat-o-philes like me.

Loudspeakers for Model Investigations
For projecting sound into models of broadcasting studios, concert halls, theaters, etc., two special types of electrodynamic loudspeakers have been designed with a frequency range of 2 to 80 kHz and a very smooth frequency response. The first of the two types can, according to requirements, act as a direct radiating acoustic transmitter or as a horn-type loudspeaker, transmitting approximately a plane acoustic wave. The second type of transmitter generates a cylindrical acoustic wave.

Avigdor "Yvet" Lieberman had plainly had a hard day when he appeared at the JNF's reception on Monday night. Indeed, he made no secret of it; neither did Israel's UK envoy, Ron Prosor, who said feelingly that it had been a long day for them both.
But Mr Lieberman was among friends in a largely right-wing audience which greeted JNF chairman Samuel Hayek's pledge of "unconditional support for Israel" with the biggest applause of the night.
Front page of the Sunday Times yesterday and me and mine are rolling on the floor laughing.
The story? That despite it's being less than 100 days until (gasp!) the Royal Wedding, neither the Queen nor Prince Philip has yet found it necessary to meet Kate Middleton's parents.
You couldn't make it up, really. I mean, I know they're the grandparents rather than the parents, but after all, William and Waitey Katie have been an item for eight years, and in all that time Mrs Windsor hasn't managed to blink a tiara in Carol Middleton's direction. Extraordinary.
Presumably the judges for the Jerusalem Prize make careful soundings as to whether an intended recipient will be ready to accept the $10,000 award.
Because, naturally, the naysayers have been out in force since the announcement that this year's award is to be given to the British novelist, Ian McEwan, author of The Comfort of Strangers, On Chesil Beach, and Atonement.
Pilots, they say in the Israel Defence Forces, are the most cautious of men. They will check something repeatedly, and then go back to check it again.
So it is not really a surprise to find the ex-fighter pilot and former head of Israel's military, Dan Halutz, is treating his first foreign media interview since entering politics with the utmost care.
An Israeli political adviser has spoken openly to the JC about her ordeal at the hands of Moshe Katzav, the ex-president whose conviction for rape has stunned the country.
Her story spans 20 years at the heart of the political establishment and her testimony was crucial in his conviction by three judges on charges of rape and sexual harassment against female subordinates.
In a full and frank interview, she told how the kippah-wearing father-of-five professed his love for her, harassed and humiliated her before accosting her in a hotel room.
This story is so delicious that it bears re-telling: the fact that the Saudis have arrested a vulture, because it came from Israel.
That's right, an actual vulture, not a cyber-bird, but a real, live (well, it was when it left Israel) predator and scavenger, fitted with a tag saying "Tel Aviv University", which quite obviously means the thing is secretly a Mossad spy.
After the verdict that found former Israeli President Moshe Katzav guilty on two counts of rape and other charges of sexual harassment, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said: "This is a sad day for the State of Israel and its residents." He went on to say: "Today, the court conveyed two clear-cut messages — that all are equal before the law and that every woman has exclusive rights to her body."
I've been made aware of the latest try-on in the dark world of estate agents.
A friend of a friend (no, this is not an urban myth) was selling his flat. You know how it is: nearly all estate agents are equally irritating, and this man's experience was no exception.
Eventually, after several months of messing about - no-shows for appointments, the usual story - our hero was told of a different estate agent who could really do the business for him.
And she did. She produced people who actually came to view when they said they would, secured an offer, and, hooray, hooray, the flat was sold.
A lipstick red, baby grand piano reclines in the vast white marbled reception area. Look up, and above you are 20 glamorous floors of luxury, each with a seemingly endless array of unobtrusive staff, making sure that everything is just so.
This is the fabulous Oberoi Mumbai, in the heart of the up-scale business and shopping district and one of three hotels attacked by terrorists in November 2008. In April 2010, the Oberoi re-opened after a $40 million makeover, and boy, does it show.
The remnants of an extraordinary collection are to go, almost literally, under the hammer. Broken china and perfect pieces, part of the Meissen china collection assembled by Gustav von Klemperer, the Jewish chairman of the Dresdner Bank, are for sale at Bonham's in London on December 8.
Businessman Scott Saunders was living in Tokyo in 1992 when he went to an event that changed his life.
It was a memorial service at the local Jewish community centre for the wartime Japanese diplomat, Chiune Sugihara, who issued visas to help thousands of Jews escape the Holocaust.
Mr Saunders, who describes himself as "Anglo-Jewish to the core", began to read more about the Holocaust. By 1995 he was living in Hong Kong, where he chaired the synagogue.
Religion.com is a 50 minute excursion into the mysterious life of the strictly Orthodox in Israel and, specifically, their relationship with the Internet.
It feels, however, more like 50 hours, as the documentary directors Ron Ofer and Yohai Hakak strain repetitively to persuade the viewers to warm to their two main protagonists.
Kippur, or Atonement Day, is a sweet and rather unexpected short feature film made by the students of the Beit Berl College Film Department in Israel which candidly depicts the gap between religious and secular Jews.
Neta, a medical student, lives in a slightly squalid Tel Aviv apartment with a floating population of permanently stoned flatmates, most of whom spend their time either playing tv games or watching violent films.
For the flatmates, Yom Kippur is just like any other day; and for Neta, too, it's a day when she can take her bike out and cycle round the near deserted streets.
There is nothing like a train, as the old song nearly had it. Just how true that is I am about to learn. Cruise ship old hands will know the joy of not having to pack and unpack for a multi-centre holiday. Now the last word in luxury travel in India, the Maharajas' Express has launched itself as a palatial hotel on wheels and my home for a glorious week.
The Jewish Leadership Council is full of itself, having elected its new trustees this week. Drumroll, please, for "Bicom chairman Poju Zabludowicz, Masorti co-chair Bill Benjamin – whose organisation only joined the JLC recently – and Stephen Lewis and James Libson, who jointly represent the New Leadership Network, a group fostered by the JLC to groom future leaders.
Three leading members of the European Council of Jewish Communities board resigned this week at the organisation's Presidents' Conference in Berlin, in protest at the nomination of Ukrainian oligarch, Igor Kolomoisky, as incoming leader of the ECJC.
Jaws dropped in the plenary session of the conference when the British-based president for the last six years, Jonathan Joseph, announced that the ECJC "had the opportunity to elect as our new president a person from the east — a man with the financial resources" to make the organisation viable once more.
If a conference that took place in Berlin last weekend is anything to go by, Jewish leaders in the West need a rapid Russian language induction course — and an equally rapid re-think of how things get done.
Jonathan Joseph, the South African-born, British-based president of the European Council of Jewish Communities, may not have done the Russian Berlitz course yet but he has certainly got to grips with how things get done.
William Hague is due to make his first visit as Foreign Secretary to Israel next week, expected to include a meeting with leaders of the Palestinian territories.
He will not go to Gaza, although he is due to head to Cairo to meet the Egyptian government.
Mr Hague is no stranger to Israel: he has paid several visits, beginning in 1992, often under the aegis of the Conservative Friends of Israel.
"I cannot come, I do not want to come, and I am not coming".
Shan't. Won't. Kick furniture.
Thus the exceptionally mature film-maker Mike Leigh, explaining to the director of the Sam Spiegel School of Film and Television in Jerusalem, Ranan Shor, why he won't be going to Israel next week.
It has taken him 27 years and 15 books, but this week the novelist Howard Jacobson finally won the most prestigious prize in publishing, the Man Booker award, for his novel, The Finkler Question.
The Manchester-born writer, previously longlisted twice for the Man Booker, joked at the Guildhall award ceremony that he had thrown away all his previous speeches of acceptance, while retaining an acute memory of all the judges who had turned him down in previous years.

Alleged gunman captured in Houma
Published: Monday, December 14, 2009 at 8:01 p.m.
Last Modified: Monday, December 14, 2009 at 8:01 p.m.
HOUMA — A 33-year-old Kenner man wanted on an attempted-murder charge was arrested Sunday by Terrebonne Narcotics Task Force agents.
Mark Anthony Griffin, whose address was listed as 3005 Kingston St., Kenner, is accused of shooting 31-year-old Robert Mitchell Jr. of Houma with an assault rifle July 3 on Canal Street. Mitchell was hit in the shoulder and treated and released from Terrebonne General Medical Center.
Narcotics agents received a tip on 3 p.m. Sunday that Griffin was at a house on Scott Lane in Houma. They attempted to arrest Griffin as he left the house in a car. Griffin bailed out of the car near St. Louis Street and Morrison Avenue and was later arrested after he jumped into a drainage ditch. No one was injured in the chase.

Bro Witness's Family Implores Him to Put a Shirt On
He refuses.
According to his Facebook page, Bro Witness has been on an American journey that has taken him from Amarillo, Texas ("Just about to do the big steak 72oz + sides at the big Texan"), to Miami Beach ("So much tits an ass on Miami beach lol"). But it was his trip to Washington, D.C. that turned Bro Witness into the No. 1 celebrity in his home country of New Zealand. Family and friends reacted as you might expect — with shock, with amusement, and, in the case of Bro Witness's sister, with a plea to put on a shirt. Bro Witness, wisely, refused.
