The Obama administration's top intelligence officials on Tuesday described it as "certain" that al-Qaeda or its allies will try to attack the United States in the next six months, and they called for new flexibility in how U.S. officials detain and question terrorist suspects.
The officials, testifying before the Senate intelligence committee, also warned of increased risk of cyber-attacks in the coming months, saying that the recent China-based hacking of Google's computers was both a "wake-up call" and a forerunner to future strikes aimed at businesses or intended to cause economic disruption.
"Al-Qaeda maintains its intent to attack the homeland -- preferably with a large-scale operation that would cause mass casualties, harm the U.S. economy or both," Director of National Intelligence Dennis C. Blair told the committee in a hearing convened to assess threats against the country.
Blair, flanked by the directors of the CIA and FBI and the chief intelligence officers of the State and Defense departments, put al-Qaeda at the top of a threat list that included the Iranian and North Korean nuclear programs, criminal cartels and the potential for economic collapse in developing countries hard-hit by recession.
The notable positive trends over the past year, he said, were the continuing security improvements in Iraq and the signs of economic recovery in developed countries. Last year, the prospect of global economic collapse ranked as the top security concern.
"Missteps could set back the recovery, particularly if inflation or political pressures to consolidate budgets emerge before household consumption and private investment have begun to play a larger role in the recovery," Blair said.
Blair and CIA Director Leon Panetta warned of new threats from al-Qaeda's regional allies, such as al-Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula. Several groups appear increasingly intent on attacking U.S. and other Western targets, even as al-Qaeda's core leadership struggles to regain its footing after repeated setbacks and eroding popular support in the Muslim world, the officials said.
"They are moving to other safe havens and regional nodes such as Yemen, Somalia, the Maghreb and others," Panetta said. He said al-Qaeda-inspired groups had successfully "deployed individuals to this country," citing recently disrupted terrorist plots in Colorado and Chicago.
The intelligence officials and FBI Director Robert S. Mueller III said U.S. counterterrorism agencies have absorbed the lessons of the Dec. 25 attempted bombing of Northwest Airlines Flight 253 over Detroit, but all said future attempts are inevitable and could happen soon.
Asked by Sen. Dianne Feinstein (D-Calif.), committee chairwoman, to assess the likelihood of an attempted terrorist attack on the United States within the next six months, Blair described it as "certain." Each of the four other officials, asked the same question, agreed with Blair.

Chevrolet has announced that it will integrate Apple's Eyes Free Siri functionality into the latest Spark models, making it the first car maker to offer full Siri integration.
Siri is Apple's 'intelligent personal assistant' available on phones running the latest iOS 6 software. Siri can control an iPhone's functions or be used to search for information held online, but until now it hasn't been possible to fully control Siri through a car's infotainment system.
Chevrolet's MyLink system will be the first with full Eyes Free Siri integration, allowing users to play music, read or write texts, use maps or make a phone call via voice control.
However, other car makers are hot on Chevrolet's heels, with Audi, BMW, Chrysler, Honda, Jaguar Land Rover, Mercedes and Toyota all set to offer Eyes Free integration with their infotainment systems in the near future.

Keep the Opportunities, Lose the Opportunists
Open Monoclonal Technology (OMT) will use its OmniRat™ human monoclonal antibody platform based on transgenic rats to generate human antibodies against a therapeutic target to be identified by Single Cell Technology (SCT).
Under the companies' human antibody discovery and development collaboration, SCT will use its own platform, designed to analyze antibodies and mRNA from individual antibody-secreting cells. Working with OMT, SCT will screen large numbers of plasma cells, measure the kinetics of secreted antibodies, and sequence the cognate light- and heavy-chain mRNA powered by next-generation sequencing (NGS). In addition to human and mouse cells, SCT's technology can be applied to any host that concentrates plasma cells in lymphoid tissues.
SCT says it will "share the economics with OMT" depending on the stage of development, while also having an option to develop and commercialize selected undisclosed products resulting from the research.
"This partnership with OMT will demonstrate the value of delineating the antibody repertoire of the humoral response by NGS early during antibody discovery. The human immune gene sequences engineered into OmniRat by OMT will work perfectly with SCT's massive screening and sequencing platform," comments Chun-Nan Chen, M.D., SCT's founder and CEO.

How Your Retail Plant Sales Practices Compare
Editor's note: Greenhouse Grower RETAILING asked growers and retailers to share their pricing methods in a survey sent out in mid June 2016. Of the 362 responses, 202 arefrom those whose primary business is garden retail. We will be sharing the results of what we learned throughout July, August, and September 2016. Discounting plants is a finely wielded weapon for plant retailers, Greenhouse Grower RETAILING's Plant Pricing Survey shows. It will come as no surprise that just about everyone holds sales at some point (93%). And so it makes sense that some expertise is shown. Take this first graph as an example. The most perishable plants — small annuals and vegetables — are the most likely to be placed on sale. That seems counter-intuitive. Why place the fastest turning inventory on sale? But when we took a closer look, we found that these sales are being used to lure […]

Lockheed Bests AgustaWestland for Danish Maritime Helicopter
Lockheed Martin Corp. and United Technologies Corp.'s Sikorsky have beaten Finmeccanica SpA's AgustaWestland to supply helicopters to the Danish military.
The Danish government has opted for the MH-60R over the AW159 Wildcat, the defense ministry said today in a statement on its website. The nine rotorcraft will be delivered between 2016 and 2018, the ministry said.
The loss is a major setback for AgustaWestland, which was the incumbent on the program. The MH-60Rs will start replacing AgustaWestland Lynx helicopters in Danish operational service in 2017, the ministry said.
An AgustaWestland spokesman said the company had no immediate comment.
Lockheed Martin, based in Bethesda, Maryland, and Sikorsky developed the MH-60R for the U.S. Navy and sold the system to Australia last year. The companies have said Saudi Arabia, Qatar, the United Arab Emirates, Malaysia, Singapore and Thailand are potential buyers. Thailand last year agreed to buy the MH-60S, a sister model.
The MH-60R and AW159 also are competing for a contract in South Korea, with a decision scheduled for next year.

I'm configuring our servers, and due to the nature of our load balancer, we can't send connection keep-alive headers. I'm trying to determine the impact of sending these headers to both the end-user and the server. Will either one notice anything?
First and foremost, yell. Loudly. At your vendor. For having a product not supporting the over-a-decade-old HTTP/1.1 protocol.
The impact of not having persistent connections is a major increase in loading time of resources. With keep-alive, a single TCP connection can be used to request multiple resources; without, a new TCP session (with a new three-way handshake - and, if you use SSL, a new SSL negotiation) is required for each and every resource on the page.
In practical terms, the impact will depend on the number of resources on a page, the round-trip time between client and server, and the number of concurrent requests a client's browser is making at a time (modern browsers run ~6ish by default). Lots of resources per page and distant clients will mean a very noticeable increase in page load times.
Keep alive will greatly enhance the performance on both the client and server side. If possible do not disable it. The load balancer should work fine with keep alive turned on.

|"Super Real" graphic novel on sale in September
What do you get when you cross an upstart extreme programming cable network with a biotechnology company? You get Jason Martinâs âSuper Real,â in which genetically enhanced 18- to 30-year olds compete to win a million dollars on a reality TV show of the same name. CBR News caught up with writer/artist Jason Martin to get the details on the upcoming âSuper Realâ graphic novel.
âSuper Realâsâ ensemble cast is a decidedly eclectic mix. âThese arenât mere mortals thrust into super powered responsibility by random events, they actually choose to get radical genetic procedures for fame and a big payout,â Martin told CBR. âSo you inherently have a certain range of people that would even consider that, balanced by extreme programming cable TV execs making the casting choices. You wind up with a Go-Go dancer/waitress with a deep family secret, an aspiring body builder/wrestler with Touretteâs syndrome, a young spokes model that may or may not have been raised in Europe, a strung-out club promoter/producer, and a silver spoon black sheep nymphomaniac.â
The villains of the piece, the XTV network execs who produce âSuper Real,â bear more than a passing resemblance to some of Americaâs most recognizable political figures. âWeâve all seen corporate suits cast as villains before, and it can be pretty generic for a comic book story, where colorful characters bring a lot more impact and weight dramatically,â Martin explained. âSo the idea was to do like Marvel with their Ultimate line, and find likenesses for those characters. After struggling with ideas, the presidential personas of Bush and Cheney struck me as perfect on a number of levels, so I ran with that.â
A self-described âslave to pop culture,â Martin has been a longtime comics fan, coming up on books like âCerebus,â âX-Men,â and âTeenage Mutant Ninja Turtles,â and the budding creator drew comics of his own during those formative years. Years later, after having his interest in comics reinvigorated by the standout mid-â90s comics work of creators like J. Scott Campbell, Joe Madureira, Paul Pope, Masamune Shirow and Jason Pearson, Martin decided to throw his hat into the comics ring. âI knew I wanted to do something contemporary and fun with a super group but, as you know, thereâs no shortage of super teams in comics, so it had to be something different,â Martin said. âAt the time reality TV was really taking off with things like âSurvivor,â so the idea to merge the two came to me and âSuper Realâ was born.â
|Pages from "Super Real"
When Martin published the first issue of âSuper Realâ three years ago, he had no idea the journey to completing his story would be such a long one. âWhen the first couple issues came out months apart, it was building momentum, and getting great reviews, and really felt like it had a chance,â Martin recalled. Rising pamphlet prices and the economic downturn conspired to keep Martin from publishing the final issues of his opus, causing âSuper Realâ to spend a year in publication limbo. Martin was resistant to going straight to trade with the final issues, and after an effort to publish the final issues through Diamond as an oversized special fell through, the creator arranged to have the special published digitally through Haven Distribution, just before Diamondâs release of the âSuper Realâ graphic novel this August.
âHindsight being what it is, Iâve made the journey much more difficult for myself, being too anxious, naïve, and really releasing the book too soon,â Martin continued. ââSuper Realâ was just another victim of the collapsing independent comic market, with the sales hurt by my inability to get the book on any kind of regular schedule. As I said though, it always had a good following, solid market awareness, and great reviews, so Iâm glad people can give it another shot in book format, and fans can finish up the first story arc in comic format.â
The upcoming 200-page graphic novel is comprised of the five issues of âSuper Realâ from the original run (three regular issues and two specials) and the oversized finale. âAdditionally, Iâve retouched the original issues, and even had the first special, which was published in black and white, fully colored for the book,â Martin said. âSo, it will read like one complete volume, the way it was always intended.â
|Pages from "Super Real"
A fan of visual storytelling in all its forms, it was always Martinâs intent to utilize âSuper Realâ as a way to showcase the talents of other up-and-coming artists. With that in mind, Martin commissioned variant covers for each issue of the series. âThose artists also had their covers as a poster in the center of every copy, along with an interview, so a small showcase in each issue,â he said. The upcoming graphic novel features a pinup gallery collecting the bevy of âSuper Realâ pinup art that has been created over the past three years.
It was Martinâs desire to work with other artists that led him to create not one but two âSuper Realâ specials. The first was âSuper Real vs. The Comic Book Industry,â which pits the âSuper Realâ contestants against thinly-veiled stand-ins for comic industry icons. âEach cast member and section was drawn by a different artist, with the featured artist being Jim Mahfood,â Martin said. That was followed by âSuper Real vs. the Movie Industry,â a double-sized sequel special featuring the art of Josh Howard and a handful of other emerging comics talent.
Last year, Martin took the idea one step further by creating SRG, his own indie comic publishing label. Short for Super Real Graphics, Martin kicked off the line with two graphic novellas, âGnomeâ and âThe Wolves of Odin.â Dave Dwonchâs âGnomeâ posits that gnomes are anything but the creatures of myth they are believed to be today. âGnomes were real and once the Earthâs great defenders, until they had a curse placed on them, petrifying them until the day they were needed once more,â Martin said. When a âLovecraftian evil from another dimensionâ threatens Earth in 1956, a solitary gnome must enlist the aid of local beatnik in saving the world.
|Pages from "Super Real"
Grant Gouldâs âThe Wolves of Odinâ pits the Vikings of a Tolkien-style Norse mythology against a lycanthropic menace. âViking warrior Tyr is caught in the middle as Odin unleashes werewolves on the Northern men, for turning to new religion, and Thor guides him to stop the carnage,â Martin said.
Coming up next for SRG is Martinâs own OGN, âCon of the Dead,â which follows âa group of survivors; a booth babe, a celebrity in âtrooperâ gear, and a female MMA fighter, trying to battle their way out of a zombie outbreak at San Diego Comic-Con,â Martin revealed.
Martin said that fans could look forward to more âGnomeâ and âWolves of Odinâ down the road, but that for the time being at least, the âSuper Realâ graphic novel marks the end of that particular story. ââSuper Realâ was always designed as a closed ended story arc,â Martin said. âIâm a big fan of manga and European stories, where you can follow characters for some time, but you ultimately get a full story, and pay off for your investment.â That said, plans are already underway for a spinoff, the second part of a trilogy, featuring an âexciting and talented artistâ whom Martin could not yet announce.
And if sales of the âSuper Realâ GN warrant it, Martin hasnât closed the book on the book entirely. âI really think when people see the whole story, they might be surprised by what the book has to offer, and hopefully it can find a new life,â Martin said.
The âSuper Realâ graphic novel hits stands in September.

Colloid cysts of the third ventricle are rare intracranial tumors, accounting for 0.5% of intracranial tumors. Colloid cysts represent 2% of gliomas, are more common in men than women, and usually are diagnosed between the third and fifth decades of life. The primary presenting complaint of this disorder is headache. The headaches are described as intermittent, severe and intense, and of short duration and usually are located frontally. The main associated features are nausea and vomiting. The headache can be relieved by lying down, which is unusual for headaches secondary to intracranial tumors. Colloid cysts of the third ventricle are diagnosed by computed tomography or magnetic resonance imaging and treatment is surgical. This rare type of headache disorder is significant because it is associated with sudden death. Recognition of the unusual features of colloid cyst headache may result in decreased mortality in this disorder.

Collab? Sure I'll give it a shot. Its out of my comfort zone for sure. You could go quite a few ways emotionally with this song. So inbox me what you have in mind. As for the beat, I like it. It has mexican, pop, rap, and some of todays modern/oldskool funk. I like it. Its awesome. As I say with all music on here, I can't give it 5 stars because the same machined beats over and over again is almost like ADHD. I can't focus on it because it make me bored. I like beats with dynamic ranges, no two beats are the same frequency.

This invention relates to the art of power driven brushes of the type generally employed as toothbrushes or the like.
A variety of such power driven brushes have been evolved with a view to implementing the facility with which teeth or the like may be brushed. Where such brushes are employed for dental hygiene, it is found that with the same expenditure of time, the average individual can attain greater thoroughness of brushing, and hopefully improved dental hygiene, as compared to that available with a manual brush. Further, by minimizing required physical exertion and time, and/or providing a relatively self-acting piece of equipment, it is hoped that the user will find the chore more palatable.
Though power driven toothbrushes employing either self-contained electric motors, or water driven turbines, have previously been employed, and though such previously evolved brushes appear to have greatly enhanced the facility with which an individual can care for his or her own teeth, these previously evolved brushes still do not serve to clean all of the complexly contoured surfaces of the conventional tooth, both because of the limited range of motion of the brush, and because of the contours of the brush, which do not always approximate the surfaces of the tooth to be cleaned.
Thus, prior art power driven toothbrushes have generally employed a motor containing handle coupled to a brush to either reciprocate it along a longitudinal linear path or transverse linear path. The user further compounds the locus of movement of the brush by manually manipulating the brush to augment the paths of movement provided by the motor drive, and though this complexity of movement does indeed significantly improve cleaning as compared to that with a conventional manual toothbrush, it is found that plaque and the like debris often remains on the tooth surface, primarily because of the lack of contact of the brush surfaces with the tooth surfaces.
Professional brushing equipment employed by dentists, dental hygienists, and the like, utilize rotary brushes of relatively small diameter, with the rotating brush subject to positioning in the various crevices of the teeth. Such rotary toothbrushes are not available to the average individual, and even if available, would not be usable, since the careful manipulation of the relatively small brush over the various surfaces of the tooth is not something which the average individual is capable of performing.
It is with the above considerations in mind that the present improved brush assembly has been evolved, a brush particularly suitable for use in forming a power driven toothbrush serving to increase the facility with which the relatively irregular contours of teeth may be easily brushed by the average individual cleaning his own teeth.
It is accordingly among the primary objects of this invention to provide an improved power driven brush assembly facilitating the ability of an individual to satisfactorily clean the complexly contoured surfaces of his or her own teeth.
Another object of the invention is to provide an improved power driven brush assembly, in which the brush elements lend themselves to approximating with a greater degree of facility than previously available the contours of the surface to be brushed.
An additional object of the invention is to provide a power driven brush assembly for use in cleaning relatively complex and irregular surfaces.
It is also an object of the invention to provide an improved method for implementing the facility with which a surface may be brushed.
These and other objects of the invention which will become hereinafter apparent, are achieved by forming a hollow handle with drive means in the handle. A hollow extension from the handle element contains a power transmission for transferring power from the drive means to a plurality of rotatably mounted brush supporting elements arranged on the free end of the extension. A brush is supported on each supporting element, and the brushes are formed with a cup-shaped cavity at the free end thereof to implement bristle flexing to and from the axis of rotation. The method embodying the inventive concept serves to implement the facility with which a surface may be brushed and comprises the steps of forming a brushing member with relatively unrestrained brushing portions free to flex to and from the longitudinal axis of the brushing member, and mounting the brushing member for rotation, with adjacent segments of adjacent brushes moving in opposite directions.
A feature of the invention resides in the formation of the cup-shaped cavity at the end of a rotatably mounted brush, thus providing upstanding brushing surfaces spaced from the axis of rotation which are free to flex to and from the axis of rotation, as compared to a conventional brush where the central brushing elements are restrained by those surrounding it, so that the amount of flexing is limited.
Another feature of the invention resides in the utilization of a plurality of brushes, the adjacent segments of which move in a direction opposite to that of an adjacent brush, thus facilitating the ability to dislodge material from the surface to be cleaned.
The particular details of the best mode contemplated by the inventor for carrying out the invention, and of the manner and process of making and using same so as to enable those skilled in the art to make and use same, will be described in full, clear, concise and exact terms, in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, wherein:
FIG. 1 is a view of a power driven brush made in accordance with the teachings of the invention, looking down at the brush ends, and with portions of the extension broken away to reveal the power transmission for transmitting power from the motor to the brush supporting shafts;
FIG. 2 is a side view taken of FIG. 1 showing the brushes in elevation with parts of the extension broken away to show the brush interconnection with the driven brush supporting wheel members;
FIG. 3 is an enlarged detail view with parts broken away of a brush supporting wheel, showing a brush in position;
FIG. 4 is a schematic view with parts broken away showing an alternate embodiment in which the brush supporting wheels are formed as water driven turbines permitting use of water as a power source; and
FIG. 5 is a view of the handle extension of the FIG. 4 embodiment with parts broken away, showing the brushes and brush supporting wheels in elevational view.
Referring now more particularly to the drawings, where like numerals in the various FIGS. will be employed to designate like parts, in the embodiment of the invention illustrated in FIGS. 1 and 2, the brush assembly 10 illustratively shown as formed of a size suitable for cleaning teeth is provided with a hollow handle element 15, containing a conventional electrical motor (not shown) coupled to a drive shaft 17. The drive shaft 17 is provided with a driving bevel gear 19 at the end thereof rotating in a plane perpendicular to the axis of the drive shaft 17. An annular collar 21 is formed on the free end of handle element 15, extending outwardly therefrom.
Hollow handle extension 25 formed of plastic material or the like, is contoured, as illustrated in the drawing, with a flared end 27 dimensioned to transition to the collar bearing end of handle 15. The interior of flared end 19 is dimensioned to frictionally engage annular collar 21, so as to provide for a selectively detachable friction coupling between the extension 25 and the handle 15.
Supported within hollow handle extension 25 on journal 28, which is mounted for rotation in the extension 25, is bevel gear 29. Journal 28, as best seen in FIG. 2 is mounted in housing 25, preferably by embedding the free ends of the journal in the material of the housing extension. Bevel gear 29 meshes with and is driven by driving gear 19.
A driving spur gear 31 is mounted on shaft 27 for rotation therewith, and a drive belt 39 preferably having rack teeth thereon is trained over spur gear 31 for movement thereby.
At the free end of handle extension 25, three driven brush supporting wheel members 41, preferably formed with gear teeth on the circumferential edge thereof, are mounted for rotation in the housing extension. These driven brush supporting wheel members 41 are formed with journals 43 and 44 arranged for rotation in bearing sockets formed in the housing extension 25 on opposed sides of the wheel members. The wheel members themselves are formed with recesses 48 to frictionally receive the brush members 45, hereafter described.
Each brush member 45, as best seen in FIG. 3, is formed with a tapered plug end 47 adapted for insertion into the recess 48 in brush supporting wheel member 43 for frictional engagement thereby. A drive pin 49 may be formed along plug end 47 riding in a slot in recess 48 if desired.
The brush members are contoured as illustrated with a cup-shaped cavity 53 and axially extending circumferentially arranged brush surfaces 55 spaced from the axis of rotation.
In the embodiment of the invention illustrated in FIGS. 4 and 5, handle 56, shown with parts broken away to the right in FIG. 4, is provided with a water supply line 57, and a water return line 58. Water supply line 57 is connected to a water supply hose 59 leading to a faucet connection (not shown) of conventional type, serving to provide a water tight coupling between hose 59 and a sink faucet outlet such as conventionally available in the usual bathroom, where the toothbrush is to be employed. Water return line 58 is coupled to a flexible discharge hose 61 of a length such as to permit it to hang with its discharge end in a sink.
A hollow handle extension 65 is formed of a contour much like handle extension 25 provided with a transitioning flared end 67 dimensioned to provide a friction coupling to flange 68 on handle 56.
Hose coupling 71 extends from the water supply line 57, and hose coupling 72 extends to the water return line 58.
The hollow handle extension 65 is formed with a water supply channel 73 formed with an inlet end adapted for engagement with hose coupling 61, with channel 73 leading past brush supporting turbine wheels 79, which are formed with journals engaging in recesses 80 providing bearings for the turbine journals, much like the mounting of the brush supporting gear wheel members 41 in the FIG. 1 and 2 embodiments. A return water flow channel 75 is molded into the handle extension returning the supply water fed through water supply schannel 73 to the turbine wheels 79 and then back to return channel 75 to the water return line 58 in the handle.
As schematically shown, appropriate pressure regulators, switches and filters may be arranged in the water supply line as desired.
It is preferred that springs 81 be arranged in the bearing recesses 80 and that sufficient clearance be provided between the bearing recesses and the wheel journals in both the FIG. 1 and the FIG. 4 embodiments to provide for a "floating" brush support.
In use, the aforedescribed brush assembly may be utilized in a variety of situations where it is desired to apply a brushing effect to a relatively small area such for example as a tooth surface for which the brush is particularly adapted.
The brush assembly components are fabricated utilizing conventional fabrication techniques, such for example as conventional plastic molding techniques, since the components lend themselves to ready fabrication of plastic material. The handle, and handle extension housing, are fabricated of plastics, and the desired brush supporting wheels, drive belts and/or water supply lines may similarly be fabricated utilizing conventionally available plastic forming techniques, such as molding, extrusion or the like, and the components are assembled as described.
In the FIG. 1-3 embodiments, as will be apparent to those skilled in the art, energization of the motor in the handle 15 will result in rotation of drive shaft 17 and drive gear 19, the rotation of which will be transmitted to gear 37 from which the rotation will be taken off via belt 39 and transmitted to brush drive wheels 41.
In the FIG. 4 and 5 embodiments, coupling of the water supply line to a sink faucet and opening of the top provides an energizing water supply which causes brush supporting turbine wheels to rotate with the water then passing back through return lines 75, 58 and 61 for discharge.
In the illustrated preferred embodiment, it is preferred that the brushes employed be of a hollow elastic type, with upstanding peripheral edges 55, such that upon bringing the brush surfaces against the tooth, the peripheral upstanding edges 55 will be permitted to flex both to and from the axis of rotation to thereby insure desired rubbing action in both directions of bristle movement, as compared to a conventional brush contour where the peripheral bristles are restrained from movement towards the center of the brush by the interiorally positioned bristles.
It is further found that by virtue of the contrary direction of rotation of adjacent segments of brush members 45, there is improved facility of dislodgement of undesired surface material on the surface to be cleaned, thus improving the cleaning action.
Additionally, the floating mount of the brush support serves to implement approximation of the surfaces to be cleaned by the brushes.
The above disclosure has been given by way of illustration and elucidation, and not by way of limitation, and it is desired to protect all embodiments of the herein disclosed inventive concept within the scope of the appended claims.

I often use the method

When I do :
"|||".replace("||","| |");
Why it results in :
| || and not
| | |? Why the second

To resolve my problem I have to write
"|||".replace("||","| |").replace("||","| |"); which looks a bit redundant.
Any one have an explanation to help me understand better the mechanism behind?
So it has been said that it's the particular case specify in the javadoc, but it's wrong the example is the following :
* The replacement proceeds from the beginning of the string to the end, for
* example, replacing "aa" with "b" in the string "aaa" will result in
* "ba" rather than "ab".
So it's different from my case because the result "ba" is not a match for "aa" anymore. Whereas in my case the result "| ||" still contains the pattern.

This band has put on concerts for more than 90 years and now they need the community's support.
The Zanesville Memorial Concert Band has been performming free concerts Muskingum county since 1923. Board Member Jennifer Roquemore said they need financial help.
"The commissioners each year provide us with funds that we need in order for the Zanesville Memorial Band to continue that is only part of the funds that we receive. Part of them are from contributions we also have a couple of foundations that provides us with funds but the commissioners each year give us some money based upon what they can give and so we're hoping that this year they will be able to continue that," Roquemore said.
The commissioners said they would consider the request. Roquemore said the band is a good thing for the community and they perform a huge variety of music.
"I think they enjoy this particular group they are very professional they have a lot of professional persons and then a lot of persons have been playing a long time and are just really good at what they do so for about the 50 people that play they do a really nice job," Roquemore said.
Roquemore said it's nice that people can go out on a Sunday afternoon to a park and listen to great music for free.

Ringo H.W. Chiu, Associated Press
PASADENA, Calif. — The Rose Bowl is a living archive of football tradition. Every year, teams participate in the same oceanside pep rallies, Disneyland visits and Hollywood beef-eating extravaganzas before those flowered parade floats glide down Colorado Boulevard right before the game.
All that history suits No. 9 Wisconsin perfectly. Coach Bret Bielema has built a Midwest powerhouse by largely adhering to traditional styles and schemes, determined to win Rose Bowls with unapologetically old-fashioned football.
And though No. 6 Oregon usually seems to be visiting our planet from the near future, coach Chip Kelly's Ducks also love every bit of the history they see out of their mirrored helmets.
The last two losers of the Rose Bowl will return Monday for a chance at redemption in the 98th edition of the Granddaddy of Them All, matching two offenses with thoroughly disparate strategies for racking up similarly huge numbers on the scoreboard.
"You can't get two teams much more different than these, but that's why I think it's going to be a great game," said Bielema, who has led the Badgers to their first back-to-back Rose Bowls in a dozen years. "We do things a certain way at Wisconsin like we've done them in the past, and Oregon always has something new for you. People are going to see something special in this matchup."
Bielema was a defensive lineman at Iowa in the 1991 Rose Bowl, which featured the most total points (80) in the game's history. That record could fall before sunset in Arroyo Seco if quarterback Russell Wilson gets the Badgers (11-2) rolling and Oregon's Darron Thomas can orchestrate his offense's usual success.
"We'll be comfortable from the jump, because we've already played in these types of games before," said Thomas, a redshirt at the Rose Bowl two years ago. "Everybody wants to knock us off, so they come with their best punch. It's not really pressure, but we want to win one."
Both teams head into the Rose Bowl with impressive pedigrees of recent success — except in bowl games.
Two-time Big Ten champion Wisconsin lost the Rose Bowl to TCU last year, while three-time Pac-12 champion Oregon was beaten by Ohio State two years ago before falling in the BCS title game last January. The Ducks are the only school playing in their third straight BCS bowl this season, while the Badgers are looking for just their second bowl win in five years.
Although Oregon has revolutionized college football with everything from its hurry-up offenses to its wildly inventive uniform looks, Kelly relishes this matchup and this stadium more than, say, the site of the BCS title game in suburban Phoenix last year.
"You felt like you were walking into a spaceship," Kelly said of the Arizona Cardinals' stadium. "It has kind of a futuristic feel to it. I'm a lot more comfortable in the Rose Bowl setting. That's what college football is all about."
The Rose Bowl's history also is vital to Wisconsin quarterback Russell Wilson, who acknowledged a feeling of wonder when he visited the stadium last week. Badgers safety Aaron Henry says his teammates have their awe in check after last season's loss, instead focusing on removing the empty feeling they brought home from Southern California.
"To go through everything we went through to get here the last two years, we don't want to lose it twice," Henry said. "This game means too much for our careers and our lives. This is history right here."
Many players on both teams still remain from the schools' last Rose Bowl teams, but two new quarterbacks are in charge. Wilson is wrapping up his incredible single season at Wisconsin by fulfilling his late father's wish to see him on the hallowed turf in Pasadena, while Thomas is completing his second standout season after replacing Jeremiah Masoli.

Even though his first solo album, Something to Be, debuted at No. 1 on the charts, Rob Thomas and his wife, Marisol, haven't forgotten their leaner years. "We've not had money for so much longer than we've had money, it's hard to get rid of that sensibility," says the 33-year-old matchbox twenty frontman, whose performance of his single "Lonely No More" can be seen at www.aolmusic.com as part of AOL's Music Sessions. "You can tell that neither of us come from money because even now we're like, 'Should we throw away that Ziploc bag? It's not really dirty, we used it on all dry stuff, we could use it again.' " Thomas says there's a method to his miserliness. "We come from a generation that has Behind the Music, so we've seen it go down. Things can get really skinny after the fat years."
Chalke Makes Bucks at Starbucks
Turns out the cast and crew of Scrubs are constantly holding their own version of another NBC show: Fear Factor. "We always have bets to eat horrendous amounts of weird things—and the price goes up the less likely you are to do it," says Sarah Chalke, 28, who costars with Zach Braff on the just-released first-season DVD. "One assistant director ate four cups of mayonnaise. Another ate six pickled pigs' hooves from a disgusting prop jar for $100 a hoof." Chalke pocketed $500 after one dare. "After shooting a burlesque dancing fantasy sequence, I had to walk to Starbucks in fishnets, heels and feather fans. Then I had to wait in line for 20 minutes to get my soy decaf!"
Farmer Vartan
Michael Vartan may costar with Jennifer Lopez and Jane Fonda in Monster-in-Law, but the Alias star's plans were originally more down-to-earth. "I grew up on a small farm in Normandy with my dad. I was very happy laying down irrigation pipes in the turnip fields," says Vartan, 36. "But, then I realized, you can't live on turnips. My mom lived in L.A., so I thought, 'Palm trees sound great!' " So did the free ride. "I had no idea what I was going to do. Then my mom's friend said, Tour kid has an interesting look,' and asked if I wanted to take acting classes. I said, 'Absolutely not.' She said, 'You'll meet pretty girls.' I said, 'No.' Then she said, 'I'll pay for it.' That was the clincher."

Many problems in computer vision can be formulated as a minimization problem for an energy functional. If this functional is given as an integral of a scalar-valued weight function over an unknown hypersurface, then the sought-after minimal surface can be determined as a solution of the functional's Euler-Lagrange equation. This paper deals with a general class of weight functions that may depend on surface point coordinates as well as surface orientation. We derive the Euler-Lagrange equation in arbitrary dimensional space without the need for any surface parameterization, generalizing existing proofs. Our work opens up the possibility of solving problems involving minimal hypersurfaces in a dimension higher than three, which were previously impossible to solve in practice. We also introduce two applications of our new framework: We show how to reconstruct temporally coherent geometry from multiple video streams, and we use the same framework for the volumetric reconstruction of refractive and transparent natural phenomena, bodies of flowing water.

China has now stepped in and finalized a new gargantuan effort to modernize the transportation system of Thailand. One line will stretch from the border of the Nong Khai province to the Rayong province, and the other will connect the center of Thailand with Bangkok.
Rather than choosing either of these destructive options, we are fortunate to be able to choose safe, affordable cleaner energy and more efficient energy products, such as vehicles and furnaces, instead. That is the future and it is not a distant future -- it's happening right now.
It may take a decade or two, but if the U.S. implemented these solutions tomorrow, we would be on track to re-take the top spot in the world's fastest-growing economies. And we could do it while preserving the Earth for future generations and treating working people with the dignity they deserve.

Beattie was superb for Scotland in the 2010 Six Nations championship, but he struggled to regain his form after undergoing shoulder surgery 16 months ago.
The 25 year-old played just one game in this year's Six Nations tournament – against Ireland – but was then dropped from the side and was subsequently left out of the squad chosen for the World Cup in New Zealand.
Last weekend, Beattie was omitted from the Glasgow side which took on the Ospreys at Firhill. In his place, Ryan Wilson put in an impressive shift in the Warriors' 28-17 victory over the Welsh outfit.
However, Beattie has now been recalled as one of 11 changes to the team ahead of Saturday's RaboDirect PRO12 clash with Aironi in Viadana.
"It's a massive game for Johnnie," said Lineen. "We all know what he can do, but he hasn't done it for a while and he knows that. We're all working really hard to get the best out of him.
"Ryan has played exceptionally well and it's for Johnnie to respond to that. He has to do everything a little bit quicker. He needs to be up there. The way we play is made for a guy like Johnnie Beattie.
"He has trained really well. He wants the ball, wants to make tackles. He's been animated and leading discussions, which is what we want to see from him."
Although some of Lineen's changes have undoubtedly been made in order to rest frontline players ahead of their Heineken Cup clash with Bath eight days later, Saturday's game will also mark the return to the Warriors' starting lineup of Scotland captain Al Kellock and flanker John Barclay.
Barclay made a brief – but still hugely impressive - appearance as a substitute against the Ospreys, but Kellock had dropped out a few hours before kick-off with a knee problem.
Lineen said: "It's about developing strength in depth in the squad and making sure players get a run. At the same time, it's got to be competitive.
"We've got the Heineken Cup coming up and we're still integrating players who are coming back in. We thought long and hard about it. The players had an idea of what we were doing last week. I won't do it all the time, but it gives them a sense that we trust every player."
Scotland fly-half Ruaridh Jackson had been expected to return to the side this weekend, but he has still not recovered fully from the hamstring problem that ruled him out of the Ospreys game, so Duncan Weir retains the playmaker's role.
Scotland will meet Australia in a one-off Test next June, the Scottish Rugby Union has confirmed.
Andy Robinson's side will take on the Wallabies, who finished third at the recent World Cup, at the Ausgrid Stadium, Newcastle, New South Wales on Tuesday, June 5, 2012. It will be the stadium's first Test.
Scotland beat Australia for the first time in 27 years when the sides met in Edinburgh in November 2009.
Scotland head coach Robinson said: "We're really pleased to have this fixture as part of our tour in June which will also encompass Test matches against Fiji and Samoa.
"The last time we played against Australia was a very good game and a special win for Scotland.
"We're very much looking forward to going to Newcastle and playing our part in the inaugural Test match at the stadium there."
Scotland will travel to Australia and the Pacific islands with a 34-strong playing party.
The full itinerary for the remainder of the tour is still to be finalised, with dates to be confirmed for the Tests with Samoa and Fiji, while it is hoped a Super 15 side will provide the opposition on Saturday, June 9.

Three Night Fury's for Christmas! by Super3dcowWatch
©2012-2016 Super3dcow
Three awesome new Toothless figurines that I got for Christmas. The left one is an ornament completely hand made by my brother Matt, who's the one who used to paint the Toothless eyes for me. The middle one is one of the 5 Resin Toothless figurines that stands on its tail(although, it's not balanced, so it can't stand right now.), made by Indigo-Ocean. And the left one is the Mcdonalds Happy Meal Toothless my dad found in a thrift store for 50 cents, hahaha.
Ooh I've seen the middle one on Etsy! Wanted to buy but didn't have the money D:
The left one looks super adorable ^.^ Tell your brother, job well done!

BMI View: Diabetes has become Mexico's number-one health problem, as a result of increasingly unhealthy lifestyles and rising obesity levels. The early and speedy approval of diabetes therapeutics by local authorities aims to meet the urgent epidemiological needs of the country, as well as demonstrates Mexico's improving competitiveness on the global pharmaceutical market. The high prevalence and poor management of disease in Mexico presents significant market opportunities for multinationals. However, COFEPRIS' efficient response to the high disease burden could introduce unexpected competition for companies already established in the market.
Mexico's Federal Commission for the Protection against Sanitary Risk (COFEPRIS) has approved Sanofi's Lyxumia (lixisenatide), a once-daily injectable GLP-1 receptor agonist for the treatment of type 2 diabetes. Clinical studies of the medicine were carried out in Mexico and 40 other countries, including Canada, Australia, Germany, Japan and Morocco. Mexico is the first country to approve the drug in the world.
According to BMI's Burden of Disease Database (BoDD), disability-adjusted life years (DALYs) lost to diabetes ranks the highest among communicable and non-communicable diseases in the country, Mexico's DALYS lost to diabetes totalled over 30% of the total diabetes DALYs in Latin America. Diabetes is the country's most common cause of mortality in adults, and the number one cause of hospital discharge in the Mexican Institute of Social Security (IMSS). Local media has reported that diabetes accounts for 34% of Mexico's public health insurance spending.
|A High Diabetes Burden
|2012 DALYs Lost To Selected Diseases In Mexico
A survey carried out by Mexico's Instituto Nacional de Salud Publica reported that although the treatment coverage for type 2 diabetes is high (94%), only 5% of patients diagnosed with the disease are fall under the 'maintaining the condition well' category - in terms of A1c haemoglobin measurement (which should be below seven). The study showed that of the majority of patients being treated with anti-diabetic medication: 85% are receiving anti-diabetic agents, 7% are on insulin only and 3% are on combination of both, while and 6% are treated with no medication. Most patients are treated under a public healthcare institution, such as IMSS and Secretaria de Salud (SSA).

BMI's BoDD also showed that DALYS lost to diabetes among people between 30 and 60 years old increased by over 40% between 2007 and 2012. We believe that high disease prevalence and poor disease control indicates a need for the significant improvement of medicine access and quality in Mexico - creating significant revenue earning opportunitied for the producers of diabetes therapeutics.
In Q212, Mexico offered some mixed results for multinationals. Roche, Pfizer and GSK experienced negative effects from biosimilar competition, government purchase timing issues and generic drug price competition. However, sales of Sanofi's diabetes drug lantus (insulin) were particularly strong in Mexico (+25.8%).

Sanofi's outperformance in Mexico is unsurprising, given its significant presence in the country. However, we believe it will face increasing competition from its international peers and local manufacturers. In order to address the high disease burden in Mexico, during 2012 alone, COFEPRIS approved Bristol Myers Squibb's Kombiglyze xr (saxagliptin and metformin hcl extended-release) for type 2 diabetes treatment and Novo Nordisk's Ryzodeg (insulin) and Tresiba (insulin) .
