Cloth simulation and fabric measurement are tightly linked areas of research. In order to obtain high quality animations of dressed models, the properties of the simulated garment must first be evaluated in an accurate and adapted way. As cloth is a very complex, isotropic material, the evaluation of its properties is difficult to achieve, and various approaches exist. Depending on the design of the simulation engine, the measurements will be done differently, so that the outputted parameters match the inputs required by the simulator. Various issues must be considered, and depending on the complexity of the simulated garments, tradeoffs must be made in order to reconcile the real features of the cloth (stitches, layers...) and the computational capacities of the simulator (numerical integration, collision detection...)

**EDIT**: There are now new links to the pictures. If you saved the links as your favorites, update them with the new above links. ;) Seems like the Brickshelf file/folder was modified... >-|
I think this could be a sign of some sets relating to medical things, for example an ambulance, or maybe even a hospital? I really wish there would be a hospital set because when the last hospital came out, in 1992 I believe, I wasn't into the whole LEGO thing yet and now I really need a hospital for my ever-growing city.
THANKS! *satis*

Any other suggestions on where I should look for info, which I desperately need right now (on this new minifigure)?
I ALSO REALLY WANT (and need) A HOSPITAL!! *sing*

May be just part of a small paramedic van or clinic as well. We;ll see but I like the hospital idea as well.
Posted 24 May 2005 - 08:59 AM
Great find mate !!!!!!!
I really hope that this promotional set will lead to a paramedic theme - good possibility since tlc decided to brake up the city theme.
We'll keep a close look at this in future days ;)

surgeons wear green clothes...
2) i think in Belgium the general sign for medical stuff is a red cross, not the blue one. doesn't that refer to pharmacy or something? TLC used to print red crosses instead of the blue markings. wonder why they changed that. minifigs used to have red legs as well...

Lucky you! Sadly, that older red and white hospital was the best hospital LEGO released, but I wasn't even born back in 1987 when it was released. I was born 3 years later. And if that wasn't bad enough I didn't get into LEGO when I was about 4 or 5 years old. Unfortunatly, it was way too late by then. (About 7 years had passed after it was released.)

If you are the owner of the Brickshelf folder with the new set, and you are reading this, we would love to hear from you! I know I would. :) ;)

I usually ignore the promo stuff, that's why I didn't write about this one, it is discussed on Kostky.org since 6th of May, when it first appeared in Hypernova chain (owned by Ahold).

Well, thanks for the information anyways. ;) And even though there's no hospital this year, there is still hope for the upcoming years. :) *crosses fingers*

ENTERTAINMENT; Internet Radio Offers a Wide Choice to a Slim Audience
By SUE CUMMINGS
Published: October 25, 2000
AT first glance, the Midtown Manhattan studio of Eyada.com seems like a typical radio station. A hallway cluttered with posters and photocopied notices leads to a cramped room where an engineer prepares for the next station break. But on this particular evening, Eyada's computer game server has been hopping. Players have gathered from around the Internet for ''The Totally Intense In-Your-Face Thumb-Twitching Joystick-Vibrating Hard-Drive-Crashing Videogame Show.''
Video? On radio? Yes, interactive video at that. ''Totally Intense'' offers something unheard of on regular radio or on TV: the ability to play the game in real time with other listeners and the host.
After existing for five years, Internet radio is no longer an online version of what Web types like to call terrestrial radio. It's live game-playing, it's community, it's chat, it's TV, and it's as many channels as a site has servers.
Propelled by technology and the chance to present more interesting fare than on-the-air stations offer, Internet-only Webcasters have proliferated, offering every imaginable kind of music, talk and news. A typical American city has 20 to 50 broadcast radio stations. According to BRS Media, which has been compiling a directory of Internet radio stations since 1995, the online listener now has access to more than 13,000 sites.
That's not to say that all Web radio has gone the way of ''Totally Intense.'' Many of the most popular sites are still regular radio stations using the Internet to build an audience beyond the geographic limits of their signal. So far, the audience for Internet-only radio is small. At any moment, the most popular Internet-only stations may have 200 to 300 listeners compared with 45,000 for a regular major market station. The Internet-only audience, however, is growing rapidly.
When Arbitron released the first Info stream Webcast ratings last October, the top site was TexasRebelRadio.com, which plays Americana, alternative country, Texas and roots music. That format wouldn't carry a commercial station in most markets, but TexasRebelRadio sends the signal of KFAN-FM in Austin, Tex., a city with a reputation for a progressive music scene.
Other Internet-only sites are virtual jukeboxes that give listeners a remarkable degree of control over what they can hear. NetRadio.com and Spinner.com offer channels with more than 100 subgenres of music. Such sites limit expenses by hiring professional programmers to select the music, then playing canned audio for visitors. Live365.com, Radio.sonicnet.com and Shoutcast also allow users to program their own stations, to which other listeners can tune in. The music comes from either the house server or is uploaded by the user programming the station, with guidelines on the type of music it is permissible to upload. These companies say they have have either negotiated licensing agreements with the recording industry or are doing so.
Still other stations, like Eyada.com, are betting on the appeal of live, exclusive programs. Every Thursday night in San Francisco's Mission District, dance music fans gather for the Webcast of BetaLounge.com. The show is archived on the site for replay throughout the week, but when it is live, there is a chat room and studio cameras relaying images of the dancers and the disc jockey. ''It's about taking the nightclub environment online,'' said Ian Raikow, president and program director of BetaLounge.
Mr. Raikow's role in booking guest D.J.'s is more like a party promoter than a radio program director. ''None of us sit there, track to track, and say, 'Well, you've got to play this, you've got to play that,' '' he said. ''Some D.J.'s are known for playing a certain style, so you know when you book them, you're going to get that. Others are a little more flexible, and you can say, 'Why don't you play a drum and bass set tonight?' ''
Rob Jones, the founder and general manager of Enigma Digital's KNAC.com, calls his station Club Med for metalheads. KNAC.com ranked No. 3 in the Infostream Webcast ratings released in September. In addition to heavy metal music, the station offers users free personal home pages, music news and features, message boards and a studio camera. There is a chat room where fans talk to the D.J. and one another.
Mr. Jones says KNAC specifies four songs an hour that the D.J. must play. The rest of the music is selected based on the interaction between the host and audience.
''As we're bringing the Net to life,'' Mr. Jones said, ''FM radio is becoming more and more automated. It's really funny. You have one guy in one city who is now on eight different radio stations in eight different markets. Go ahead and call him and make a request. The guy's not there.''
Kurt Hanson, publisher of Radio and Internet Newsletter and chairman of Strategic Media Research, says Internet-only stations have the luxury of experimentation because they are cheaper to start. Conversely, broadcast radio is expensive to get into, but access is cheap and easy for customers.

U.S. Adds Sanctions on Tehran
WASHINGTON—The U.S. imposed sanctions Thursday on the Iranian state airline and a ports operator for allegedly helping the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps move weapons to Tehran's allies around the Middle East.
The sanctions are the latest American bid to use economic pressure to try to weaken the Tehran regime, the main U.S. nemesis in the region.
Top administration officials said Thursday's action was targeted specifically at the Revolutionary Guard, an elite unit of Iran's security forces they said is Tehran's domestic enforcer, plays a major role in proliferation activity, supports terrorism in the region, and commits human-rights abuses at home.
The U.S. Treasury targeted Tidewater Middle East Co., a port operator it says is owned by the Guard, and Iran Air, a carrier used by the Guard and Iranian military. Sanctions were also levied on an Iranian official, Behnam Shahriyari, for allegedly helping to provide weapons to Hezbollah, the Lebanon-based militant group.
Treasury officials say the Revolutionary Guard has become increasingly important to Iran's economy as international sanctions undercut Tehran's international trade abilities. "Today's actions target core commercial interests of the [Revolutionary Guard], while also undermining [its] ability to continue using these interests to facilitate its proliferation activities and other illicit conduct," the Treasury Department said in a release.
An Iranian government spokesman in Washington had no immediate comment on the new sanctions. Neither company could be reached to comment.
The stepped-up U.S. sanctions come as Iran has sought to expand its influence amid Middle East unrest, notably in Bahrain, and as U.S. officials say Tehran has continued to work toward the development of nuclear technologies that could be used in a weapon. Iran says its nuclear development is for peaceful purposes.
In late May, the U.S. took aim at Iran's ability to import refined petroleum products, in a bid to divert the country's scarce refining resources from activities that are more profitable than producing gasoline.
"The United States and our partners remain fully committed to a diplomatic solution with Iran. However, until Iran is prepared to engage seriously with us on such a solution, we will continue to increase pressure against Iranian entities of concern," Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner said in a joint statement.
Tidewater Middle East has operations at seven Iranian ports, including the country's biggest shipping-container facility. "The Iranian Government has repeatedly used Tidewater-managed ports to export arms or related materiel" in violation of United Nations resolutions, Treasury said.
Shipping firms that knowingly do business with Tidewater Middle East could be barred from dealing with U.S. financial institutions, which Treasury officials said could put pressure on an important part of Iran's trade infrastructure.
Treasury officials said they weren't sure if Tidewater had any assets in the U.S. that could be frozen. They also said the sanctions wouldn't affect Iran's oil trade, which bypasses Tidewater-controlled ports.
Treasury also took steps to increase the pressure on Iran Air, already squeezed by bans on refueling at some international airports. U.S. officials said Iran Air has carried "military-related electronic parts and mechanical equipment" on behalf of Iran's military since 2000, and on behalf of the Revolutionary Guard since 2006.
Treasury officials said illicit shipments on Iran Air passenger flights included "rockets and missiles," some of which were shipped to Syria.

Corrections & Amplifications
An earlier version of this story said that shipping firms that knowingly do business with Tidewater Middle East will be barred from dealing with U.S. financial institutions. It was changed to reflect that the firms could be barred.

Por Jammit, Inc.
Abre iTunes para comprar y descargar Apps.
Jam with your favorite bands…with Jammit! Isolate or remove an instrument from the mix & jam with the original multi-tracks!
And now: Line 6 and Jammit have partnered to create the ultimate guitar jam-along experience for iPhone® and iPad®. With the Line 6 Mobile In interface and Jammit app, you can immerse yourself in your favorite artists' original recordings—and play along with incredibly authentic guitar tones.
What is Jammit?
The audio for the individual instruments and voices heard on your favorite songs was recorded separately before being blended into the final mix. These original multi-track recordings are the building blocks for every popular song released over the past 50 years and the same authentic tracks that we use in Jammit.
Yes, Jammit actually allows you to isolate or remove an instrument from the mix, so you can jam with a band's original master tracks! In addition to instrument isolation, Jammit's scrolling scores, section looping, variable slow mode and onboard recorder let you experience music like never before. Whether you'd like to emulate every nuance of an incredible player or just take in the musical genius of a great performance, Jammit software allows you to find out what your favorite music is really made of.
Basic Jammit Features:
-True Instrument Isolation: Jammit uses the original multi-track master recordings allowing you to rebalance the mix so you can hear every detail of the original performance.
-Notation and Tablature: The elite team of Jammit transcribers use the original isolated multi-track recordings to give you transcriptions with a degree of accuracy found nowhere else but Jammit.
-Advanced Tools: Use the variable slow down mode and section looping to focus on difficult musical passages.
-Recording: Whether you're emulating the original part or coming up with your own, you can capture your performance using Jammit's record feature.
-Line 6 Amp Modeling:
When a Line 6 Mobile In is plugged into your iPad or iPhone, it unlocks the Line 6 amp modeling engine that is built in to the latest version of Jammit. Simply plug your guitar into the Mobile In, launch Jammit and load one of the songs in your library. There are two ways to use the amp modeling in Jammit : Auto or Manual mode.
Auto mode: On select songs (see the complete list of eligible songs below), patches have been created to automatically make your guitar sound like the guitar on the original recording. If the tone changes in the song, so does your guitar, so you can concentrate on playing your guitar, not your pedal board!
Manual mode: Press "manual" on the Line 6 user interface (selecting the Line 6 icon under the USER channel title), and scroll through the available preset patches. In manual mode, the sound patch that you select will remain throughout the song.
How to Get Started on Jammit:
1) Download the free app to your iOS 5 iPad, iPhone or iPod Touch.
2) Select the "Try It Out" button to download the 30 second demo songs or…

Researchers looking for notes on Meramec Valley Genealogical and Historical Society history uncovered a handwritten manuscript that details the origin of the library in Pacific.
Long before it became a branch of the Scenic Regional Library, a group of forward thinking citizens, who called themselves the Twentieth Century Study Club, became a federated club with the mission of creating a library in Pacific.

What is it?
The 2015 Subaru WRX is an all-wheel-drive sports car in the guise of an economy sedan. Well before Americans could first buy one in 2002, the WRX established itself for its rally car reflexes and cheap speed, no surprise considering that the WRX STI race cars aren�t far removed from the factory.

Google updates PPC with CTR and past statistics it collects, but it is not clear how exactly and precisely Google determines the PPC for AdWords and AdSense.
Could anyone explain it in detail, preferably with an example?

This question came from our site for professional and enthusiast programmers.
The cost per click (CPC) is determined by those bidding on the term in an auction format. This means that a bid can open as low as $0.05, with users then trying to outbid each other for rank.
Example: User A sets a max bid of $0.25 per click for "keyword". User B wants the top paid position and sets their bid for $0.30. User A now has to decide whether they want to increase their bid to at least $0.31 per click, or take position 2 at their bid.
A quality score is used by Google which slightly alters this by taking into account the historical relevancy and results of bidding, so in some cases someone bidding lower than another person can actually outrank them.
Adsense uses an "eCPM" (effective cost per thousand) to "back into" the revenue figure. Whereas traditional CPM advertisers will pay $X per thousand impressions regardless of performance, Google will serve an ad 1,000 times, and depending on how many clicks it gets will then use this to figure the effective CPM.
Example: Ad A is shown 1,000 times and is clicked once. The ad that was clicked has a CPC of $10. Google pays a 68% share to Adsense for Content users, so in this case pays out $6.80.
This means the "effective" CPM is $6.80.
I thing that information on how exactly and precisely Google determines cost of any particular click is basically their proprietary algorithm.
But general factors that are affecting your ad position and your actual cost per click are:
These 4 basically form your Ad Rank
Then your Bid + Ad Rank will determine your ad position, thus your actual Cost-Per-Click (since even you bidding higher the actual cost will be just enough to overbid your following competitor)
Here how it is explained by Google's Chief Economist

I want those fries.
Excellent onion rings as well. And, yes, Daly's dining area does offer a view of Lake Union.
With that hole in the ground directly to its south, I knew Daly's days were numbered. Bummer.
Becareful what you wish for....you may just get it.
Man, when I lived on Eastlake, I'd always enjoy eating there -- good burgers, great shakes. But *having eaten* there? Misery. You feel like greasy hell afterwards.
Speaking of greasy hell, I'm not going to miss their tables or counters.
Eastlake could use some more density. I've never been to this burger joint but I'm sure the office tower will have a better restaurant than a icky hamburger place. I'd prefer a vegan Asian fusion place.
I used to date someone out Eastlake way and ate at Daly's a lot and really enjoyed it. But after she moved (and we broke up), I honestly never think of it. It's the sort of thing I see in passing and think that I really should go back again someday.
Um....are you gonna eat that?
Many decades ago, I lived across the
street from Daly's. It was always
a regular pit stop after mis-spent
evenings at the Zoo...great fries, tarter and milkshakes. Lovely view too....
--- Jensen
Used to eat there many years ago when living on my brother-in-law's boat at the bottom of the hill. Great food and excellent rebounder from a Zoo bash when my sister was managing the place, or Rupunsils. More density, better office tower resturant? God, the hubris of my home town's new found elitism. But alas you've won, we're buried.
i used to work a block from Daly's so I ate there a lot. it's off the fucking chain and if they close it so they can build some new gleaming shithive I'M GOING TO CHOKE THE LIVING SHIT OUT OF SOMEONE- preferably a customer of ground-floor office tower Asian fusion restaraunts.
IF you love Daly's eat there, eat there often, bring your friends ... support the places you love with your business, otherwise please don't whine about their possible demise. Sadly, your words are not enough.
I live next door. The obvious hole in the ground along with the auto shop next door that recently vacated is an obvious sign of what's to come. A lease renewal has not been offered, so the owner has no choice but to vacate in January. I highly doubt it will be just an office building. Eastlake doesn't have the highest commercial occupancy rate. However, a mixed-use project will most likely pop up. Just to the North is a large apartment project and just down the hill is a redevelopment of an old fish processing plant to make way for 100'+ yachts.

I have a 3-level directory structure defined by 2 hex digits as such:
I have 300M small files in 1.5TB of compressed files that will populate these directories (we will have more files to come in the future, so I chose the directory structure to keep the mass of files from crashing a typical extX filesystem).
Unpacking these files moves at 1MB per second (or ~18 days to unpack). Ouchie!
I guess it was slow because I was creating the directory structure and then the files (done from Java APIs). So I set out to just create the directory structure alone in a bash loop.
The directories alone is about a 5 day task at current rate.
Any ideas on improving the speed that this moves?
One part of the puzzle is solved, using perl, rather than bash, creates the directories over 200 times faster, now it's an operation that give you a coffee break, not an extended weekend off.
But file creation is still extremely slow, even without needing to create the directories.

A 13-year-old was killed when her 16-year-old friend — driving with just a learner's permit — smashed a speeding minivan into a corner house on a quiet Midwood street Sunday.
Eric Hakimisefat was charged with criminally negligent homicide shortly after the 1:40 pm accident near the corner of E. 23rd Street and Avenue P.
Hakimisefat, who faces up to four years in prison, was taking a Sunday afternoon joyride in a relative's 2001 Honda Odyssey with his friend Yosif Erdan, who is also 16, and Yosif's 13-year-old sister Sarah.
Police estimate Hakimisefat was driving 63 miles-per-hour in a 30 mile-per-hour zone as he approached the corner and lost control of the car.
The Odyssey hit a parked car, hopped the curb, swiped a tree and plowed through a fence before slamming into a corner home.
"It was this huge, colossal crash," recalled one neighbor, who would not divulge her name to reporters. "You couldn't fathom exactly what happened."
When the dust settled, Sarah, who wasn't wearing a seat belt, was found pinned in the mangled back seat. Horrified witnesses said they could hear the young girl's sobs at first, but everything became hauntingly quiet as firefighters pulled the young teen from the car and rushed her to an area hospital, where she succumbed to her injuries.
Hakimisefat and Yosif were taken to Kings County Hospital with minor injuries. The teen driver was arrested once investigators learned he wasn't licensed.
Dozens of mourners turned out in Borough Park Monday to say farewell to Sarah, the youngest of four children who lived just a block away from where she was died. Sarah's mother was inconsolable during the service, friends said.
The death has sent both Sarah's family as well as Hakimisefat's into a tailspin. Feelings are exceptionally raw because both families knew each other for years, neighbors said.
Hakimisefat was released on $10,000 bail under protestations from Kings County District Attorney Charles Hynes' office, who asked for a $25,000 bail.
When reached Monday evening, Benjamin Lieberman, who is representing Hakimisefat, said neither the teen nor his family were prepared to give a statement.

'Naughty Bear: Panic In Paradise' Preview - Look Out For The Teddy Bear With The Knife
Whether you love him or hate him, Naughty Bear is back with an all-new Xbox Live Arcade and PlayStation Network game. The adorably destructive teddy bear that first made a name for himself in the 2010 game where he played the titular role, has returned, this time to ruin some vacations. Naughty Bear: Panic in Paradise sends Naughty to a series of different relaxing retreats all for the same reason – to exact revenge for not being invited to come along. Sure, it's a silly plot, but it's a great reason to watch stuffed teddy bears beat the fluff out of each other.
The other bears that are spending some time off, trying to catch up on some rest and relaxation on Paradise Island are never going to know what hit them once Naughty shows up. Taking place over the course of 30 missions at eleven different, expanding locations throughout the island, Panic in Paradise builds on the groundwork that was laid by its predecessor, and manages to make this game even bigger, even though it is strictly a digital release. Each section of the game is close to the size of the original Naughty Bear, meaning that you'll have a lot more ground to cover and explore this time around.
While a lot has changed, the core mechanics of the game have stayed the same. Sneak around in the bushes striking terror into the cotton filled hearts of your peers, until the time to strike is right, and then figure out the best way to take them out. There's a host of new environmental kills this time around, if that's you're kind of thing, or you can go straight up hand-to-hand with most of your enemies and take advantage of Panic in Paradise's new combos, special attacks and ultra kills. Remember, Naughty doesn't like guns, so you won't be blasting away any bears unless NB strips your foes' weapon and turns it around on them, promptly destroying the hardware once he's done with it. In short, there are a lot of ways to kill those other bears; you just need to be creative.
This time around Naughty has a lot to do in addition to bear hunting. Unlocking and upgrading six different types of costume items will keep players changing and customizing their clothes to up their skills frequently, especially when they need just a little extra boost to clear out a level. Speaking of clearing out levels, the bosses in Panic in Paradise offer up an extra bit of challenge, since this time around, Naughty has to kill each of them a certain way. Some may need to be taken out using something specific in the environment, others may require you to be wearing a certain mask to be able to approach them, and other still can only take damage with a certain weapon.
Fans of the original Naughty Bear definitely have something to look forward to in Panic In Paradise, since the sequel is really just a lot more of what they enjoyed in the first game. Newcomers to the series will hopefully be drawn in by the ridiculous brutality of the game, and be won over by the subtle humor and over the top nature of the gameplay. Besides, how many games let you rip teddy bears apart to shreds? Not many. Not many at all.

In normal times, an unemployment figure hovering within spitting
distance of 10% would be bad news indeed. These are far from normal
times, of course, and the government's latest reading of 9.4% was taken
as excellent news, with the stock market shooting up nicely in
response. That's particularly remarkable given the months-long rally

than I'd care to count. Still, it's an important subject to reflect on

and learning from them.
Well, so much for that summer rally.
At minimum, it looks like we're in for a period of heavy back-and-forth volatility like that we saw several months ago.
OK, Microsoft (Nasdaq: MSFT) won't do much damage to the Apple (Nasdaq: AAPL) iPhone with the release of the Zune HD media player. In fact, it probably won't even dent the iPod Touch, which is a closer rival in the pure media-player space.
China was supposed to belong to the iPhone. Sorry, Apple (Nasdaq: AAPL); Dell (Nasdaq: DELL) beat you to it.

Where's The Olympic Spirit? Mori Draws Fire For Slamming Skater
The 76-year-old who now heads Tokyo's 2020 Olympic organizing committee slammed Japanese figure skater Mao Asada's performance in the women's short program at the Sochi Olympics, describing her as "always falling at the most crucial moment."
The scathing remarks against the two-time world champion considered one of the greatest female figure-skaters in Japanese history came during remarks he made Thursday in Japan's southern Fukuoka prefecture. It immediately set off a wave of criticism with some calling into question Mr. Mori's qualification as chairman of the Olympic committee.
Mr. Mori's comments were made following Ms. Asada's performance on Wednesday, when the 2010 Vancouver Olympics silver medalist finished 16th in her short program after falling on during her triple axel.
"She always falls at the most crucial moment," Mr. Mori said, according to a segment of his remarks aired on Japanese television.
But he wasn't finished dissing his own athletes.
"We knew we were going to lose the team competition, so there was no need to have Ms. Asada perform and embarrass herself," he said, referring to Japan's fifth-place finish in the team competition where Ms. Asada also fell on the triple axel.
Mr. Mori also had a few words for Japanese ice dancers Chris and Cathy Reed, who were born in the U.S. but competes for Japan.
"They live in the U.S. They weren't skilled enough for the [U.S. team] in the Olympics, so we had them naturalized and included them in the Japanese team," he said, according Kyodo News. Calls to Mr. Mori's office in Tokyo went unanswered.
Twitter feeds were abuzz over Mr. Mori's comments, with many calling them insensitive. Former lower-house lawmaker Hiroshi Kawauchi tweeted: "It's outrageous that a person like this is the chairman of the Tokyo Olympics committee."
Newly elected Tokyo Gov. Yoichi Masuzoe also expressed concern over the comments, telling reporters , "It's a bit of a problem."
"He shouldn't be saying things like this from now on," he said, according to the Asahi Shimbun newspaper.
This isn't the first time this Olympic season that Mr. Mori caused a stir with controversial remarks. During a news conference Feb. 9, Mr. Mori said he didn't speak good English because it was considered the "enemy's language" during World War II, when he was growing up.
Mr. Mori, an avid rugby fan and buddies with Russian President Vladimir Putin, has a history of putting his foot in his mouth. During his short stint as prime minister between 2000 and 2001, he made headlines describing Japan as a "nation of deities" with the emperor at its center, evoking memories of imperial Japan. During the general election in June 2000, he said unaffiliated voters shouldn't go to the polls but "stay in bed" on election day.
He was also slammed for continuing to play a round of golf after being informed that a Japanese fishing ship was hit by a U.S. military submarine in February 2001, an accident resulting in nine deaths.
These slips of tongue cost him dearly in opinion polls, making him one of the most unpopular prime ministers in Japanese history. His approval rating fell to single digits toward the end of his term, leading to his resignation in April 2001.
But despite the seemingly unnecessary verbal beating she received from Mr. Mori, Ms. Asada brushed off the pressure and delivered an inspiring free skate Thursday, landing a clean triple axel and scoring a personal best of 142.71, pushing her up in to sixth place.
Adelina Sotnikova of Russia won gold in women's single figure skating, and South Korea's Yuna Kim won the silver medal.

Are there any examples known of an affine variety $A$ over an algebraically closed field such some Chow group (say, of codimension at least $2$) of $A$ with coefficients in $\mathbb{Z}/n\mathbb{Z}$ ($n$ is prime to the residue field characteristic) is non-zero?
I think there will be many such varieties.
For example, let $Q$ be a smooth $4$-dimensional projective quadric, $Q'$ a hyperplane section of $Q$ and $A = Q \backslash Q'$. For any $i$, we have the localisation sequence
$$ CH^{i-1}(Q') \to CH^i(Q) \to CH^i(A) \to 0 \ . $$
Since $CH^1(Q') = \mathbb{Z}/n\mathbb{Z}$ and $CH^2(Q) = (\mathbb{Z}/n\mathbb{Z})^{\oplus 2}$ (with $\mathbb{Z}/n\mathbb{Z}$ coefficients) it follows that $CH^2(A)$ is nonzero.

The plant will have a production capacity of 155,000 tpy and is scheduled to start up during 2014. In recent years, the volumes of butadiene available on the market have declined sharply. At the same time, demand from the tire industry and other industries has been rising.
BASF plans to build a new butadiene extraction plant at its
Verbund site in Antwerp, Belgium, the company said on
The plant will have a production capacity of 155,000 tpy and is
scheduled to start up during 2014.
The investment amount will be in the high double-digit
million euro range, the company said.
The decision has been made in light of the increasingly
tight supplies of butadiene on global markets.
In recent years, the volumes of butadiene available on the
market have declined sharply. At the same time, demand from the
tire industry and other industries has been rising.
This has led to a considerable increase in prices, according
to the company.
With the plant, we will secure our supply of butadiene
at a competitive cost, said Dr. Uwe
Kirchgäßner, head of BASFs regional basic petrochemicals business unit in Europe.
Furthermore, we will take advantage of opportunities
on the attractive external market and thereby contribute to our
long-term economic success, Kirchgäßner
The butadiene will be extracted from crude C4, a product
from the steam cracker.
This plant strengthens our Verbund production in
Antwerp and is a very important investment at the site,
said Wouter de Geest, CEO of BASF Antwerpen NV.
By improving the integration of the C4 value chain,
we will also be able to reduce the need for logistics as well
as traffic, added de Geest. Through the investment about
15 to 20 jobs will be created.
In Europe, BASF already operates a
butadiene extraction plant at its Verbund site in Ludwigshafen,
Germany, with a production capacity of 105,000 tpy.

Engineers and designers are highly skilled individuals. Forcing them to enter design changes using tables, forms and spreadsheets is unproductive and uneconomical, and it increases the likelihood of human error—this is the way that most instrumentation software systems currently work. For too long, software vendors have denied engineers and designers the simple practicality of a graphical visual engineering interface with "drag and drop" capability and inbuilt intelligence, ensuring changes are automatically replicated into all the associated data and databases.

At home, I have about 1TB of data needs backup and update frequently.
The new data is currently copied to one hard-drive and mirrored to other hard drives. However, this is not safe, if there is user error in the 1st step, all other backups are destroyed.
What's the best solution that it can: - have multiple backup. Any single hardware failure won't destroy the data. - user error tolerate. For accident deleting, overriding data, nothing should be lost.
( version control system can be good, but they don't work with hard-drives. There is no local copy of the data. The data are collected from different places )
There is also sensitive data that only stays in these off-line hard-drives. It is physically disconnected from the web, so hackers cannot touch those data. For example:
On-line machine A (PC): - public photos
On-line machine B (Mac): - personal document
Off-line hard-drive 1 - Sensitive data - backup (version-control?) of A - backup (version-control?) of B
Off-line hard-drive 2 - mirror (version-control?) of 1

Finding an Adoptive Family on the Eve of Adulthood
Roughly 50,000 children are adopted out of foster care each year. One in five of those is a teen. Another 20,000 teens "age out" of the system, leaving without finding a permanent adoptive family.

Dan (Phoenix )
Good product. Have no problems. Install a little rough but managable. Extremely great fast shipping. Would buy from again
Brett (Waterloo )
Nice wheel at a reasonable price, beadlocks should prevent you from knocking the tire off the rim and where we ride that could be rather convenient.
Steven (Knoxville )
Chinese sourced bearing. Not enough goo in the bearings. The seals that come with kit are good. In my opinion: Pivot Works bearings are better quality than others.
Roger (Smiths Station )
Everything 5 star!
Mike (Mio )
It fit on my rzr perfect, and matched the rest of my lug nuts.
LC (Grants Pass )
Excellent looking set of wheels for the price. Much better stability than the 12" stock wheels. They do require long lug nuts, bought 60mm sickspeed.

We had been using a major competitor who was not able or willing to help us with a repair need. So we checked on Kudzu and found David Robertson of Ecosystems Services Inc. What a great find. David is professional, a fair and straight shooter. He was able to find the problem and fix it on the spot.He got our system up and running within the expected time frame. His pricing is fair and reasonable for the excellent service rendered. David and his company will be our irrigation company until further notice! If you have a need for irrigation repair, you will not go wrong if you engage David Robertson of Ecosystems Services Inc. See you in the spring David...

We asked for a quote and were given one. On the date he told us we'd have one. He answered the phone, called back as he said. He did all the little things that make a company great! As soon as we have a landscape team, we are calling Exosystems to put in our irrigation.

I am so grateful for David Robertson and Ecosystems! I manually watered my yard for over 30 years. I did not trust anything or anyone else to do as good of a job as I could do. Finally, I reluctantly decided to have a sprinkler system installed. David Robertson was highly recommended by a client of a friend. The glowing recommendation was spot on. Everything about Ecosystem is professional and well done. David spent lots of time discussing with me my many concerns and he specially designed an excellent water delivery system for my lawn and plants. I have had the system for the past 1 � years. My yard has never looked better and I am really able to enjoy my yard like never before. My only regret is that I did not have Ecosystem install a sprinkler system earlier. Thank you David!

We have been using Ecosystems to service our underground irrigation system for some 17 years, and at every touch point throughout the years we have experienced prompt response times to our service requests along with outstanding diagnostics and solutions for problems that arose-all offered at reasonable costs. David Robertson, owner of Ecosystems, is a true professional and a pleasure to work with as is his staff. He's experienced and technically up-to-date identifying and solving issues quickly and efficiently. You will always receive a return call from David as well as a return visit if there's a rare glitch in any of his work or equipment. Not only would we not hesitate to recommend Ecosystems, we encourage everyone whom may need their services to contact them to be assured of a job expertly and cost-effectively done and supported.

I thought I was going to have to replace my controller as it stopped recognizing one of my watering zones and would not let me reprogram it back in. It took David 5 minutes to reset the controller and then all was well. He responded quickly to my call and the price was very reasonable. I know who I'll be calling from now on. Highly recommended.

On a Saturday afternoon, one of our sprinkler zones randomly started spraying. We searched and dug for the cutoff valve to no avail. Water was beginning to flood the lawn. We called a neighbor who had work recently done on their system. He recommended David and thank goodness he did! David answered our call that Saturday afternoon, came over quickly, easily located a shutoff and got the water turned off. He saved the day!! He then scheduled us an appt. the following week to get the valves replaced on our aging system so this wouldn't happen again. David's a great guy, honest and fast!

David and his team are true professionals. After pool construction, our sprinkler system was a total mess. The "sprinkler expert" recommended by our pool contractor only compounded the problem. David immediately recognized what needed to be done, and finished the job quickly, and his guys left our property looking better than they found it. Look no further, and believe the reviews, David is the real deal!

I called David for a repair job. My irrigation system is leaking. He was so busy, he couldn't get to me for 3 weeks. He did take the time to help me understand what was wrong with the system and then referred me to someone who could help. If I ever need more irrigation service, I'll give him a call!

(also posted on angies list)Dave was not only on time, but early. This is not a large company so he may be hard to get in peak season. Dave and two others did all the work. He let me know what was wrong without pressuring me to buy more. He even recommended leaving some things until later. From what I can tell so far, I am extremely happy with the results. I did not rate the cost simply because I did no comparison. (He charges $125/hr + parts). I checked reviews here and on kudzu and decided I just wanted the work done. I am happy, would/will use him again, and would recommend to others.

Recently had a great experience with a new irrigation system installation by David Robertson and Ecosystems at my home in Dunwoody. I strongly recommend anyone interested in installing a system to contact him. He answers his phone when you call (or text). He gives a very fair quote. He uses the best equipment. He provides good advice and answers all your questions. And he and his crew do good work. Two things really stood out to me working with him. First, he provided great customer service by being very flexible and understanding when I need to reschedule the installation date at the last minute. Second, when they were done, there was no mess � in fact, they made it look even better than when they started. My driveway was clean and blown off, my lawn was clean, etc. Really excited to use my system when the weather warms up.

I highly recommend Ecosystems, I thought that I had a major leak due to high water bills but David adjusted my system and changed out sprinkler heads. He was able to pinpoint the problem right away and I felt very reassured with his service.

Highly recommend! David was able to come right out and fix my sprinklers and my next door neighbors also. I called sprinkalawn first who told me they would give me a two- three week notice when then could come out. I have brand new sod and need my sprinklers to work as soon as possible. Glad they did that because I found David who did an awesome job. Will definitely use again. Thanks David!

I installed the plugin best wordpress security in my blog yesterday.
Today I had an alert telling me that there had been 5 bad login attempts (I was already logged in then), seems the 5th was successful... Then I get an email from best wordpress security with a file change warning telling me there has been file changing while I wasn´t working in my blog, in flies like .htaccess, wp-config.php, etc.
I´m worried I´m hacked, but don´t know how to proceed. How can I mend this and how can I protect myself from attacks? Would something like site lock secure or secure really protect my webs from hackers?

CONTACT: Kenneth A. Brown, OSBA, 800-282-6556 or 614-487-4426
Columbus, OHIO (November 15, 2010) – Many of us are not able to say that we have worked on a court case that led to a change in Ohio law, but Lancaster attorney James Aranda is an exception.
Aranda, a member of the Ohio State Bar Association for 37 years, finds the most rewarding experiences during his legal career have come from working on adoption cases—a part of the law that interested him as the proud father of two adopted children, Michael and Mariellen. "It's been extremely fascinating and rewarding to have the opportunity to play a small part in the placement of a child for adoption," he says.
In one of his adoption custody cases, Aranda successfully argued before the Supreme Court of Ohio that grandparents do not have the right to intervene or a right to visitation when grandchildren have been adopted by a third party. As a result of the Ridenour case, the Ohio General Assembly amended the Revised Code to specifically permit grandparents and other relatives to receive reasonable companionship or visitation rights in certain circumstances.
For the past three years, Aranda has served as director of the Fairfield County Legal Clinic, a project of the Fairfield County Bar Association and Southeastern Ohio Legal Services. Every fourth Tuesday of the month, you can find him and other lawyers volunteering their time and expertise to assist community members who may not be able to afford counsel otherwise.
"It's tremendously satisfying to see the good work we're doing," Aranda says. "Without free legal advice, those who come to the clinic would most likely be without counsel and at an extraordinary disadvantage for getting any kind of justice. I am very proud of our lawyers who volunteer."
The two-hour clinic is held at The Rising House in Lancaster. According to Aranda, at times there is a line out the door of people seeking counsel. They try to see 25-30 people each month. He would like to see the clinic expand, and encourages more lawyers to get involved. "I think we have a unique opportunity as lawyers to give back, to serve and to help people and this is just another way we can do that."
Aranda is a partner with the Lancaster law firm of Stebelton, Aranda and Snider, and still works on adoption cases, although his primary focus is elder law and estate planning. He also contracts with the Ohio Attorney General's office to do Medicaid recovery work as special counsel.
In the community, Aranda serves as a member of the Decorative Arts Center of Ohio Board of Directors, and will be its president in 2011. He also volunteers at St. Mary's Church and the Fairfield Area Humane Society. He stays involved in the arts and donates his time because, "These are tremendous assets for our community that have suffered greatly with decreases in funding."
The Ohio State Bar Association, founded in 1880, is a voluntary association representing approximately 25,000 members of the bench and bar of Ohio as well as nearly 4,000 legal assistants and law students. Through its activities and the activities of its related organizations, the OSBA serves both its members and the public by promoting the highest standards in the practice of law and the administration of justice.
EDITORS/NEWS DIRECTORS PLEASE NOTE: A video interview with Aranda is available on the OSBA website or on the OSBA's YouTube channel.
