NASA physicist, artist unveil warp-speed craft design
Thanks to a NASA physicist, the notion of warp speed might just travel out of sci-fi and into the real world.
NASA's Harold White has been working since 2010 to develop a warp drive that will allow spacecraft to travel at speeds faster than light -- 186,000 miles per second. White, who heads NASA's Advanced Propulsion Team, spoke about his conceptual starship at a conference last fall. But interest in his project reached a new level this week when he unveiled images of what the craft might look like. Created by artist Mark Rademaker, who based them on White's designs, the images show a technologically detailed spacecraft that wouldn't look out of place in a "Star Trek" movie. Rademaker says creating them took more than 1,600 hours. For now, warp speed is only possible in TV and movies, with both "Star Trek" and "Star Wars" referencing an idea that was completely speculative at the time. White has fittingly named the concept spacecraft IXS Enterprise, for the starship famously piloted by Captain James T. Kirk in the "Star Trek" TV series and movies. At the SpaceVision 2013 Space Conference last November in Phoenix, White talked about his design, the concepts behind it and the progress that's been made in warp-drive development over the decades. He discussed the idea of a "space warp," a loophole in the theory of general relativity that would allow for massive distances to be traveled very quickly, reducing travel times from thousands of years to days. In his speech, White described space warps as faraway galaxies that can bend light around them. They work on the principle of bending space both in front of and behind a spacecraft. This would essentially allow for the empty space behind the craft to expand, both pushing and pulling it forward at the same time. The concept is similar to that of an escalator or moving walkway. "There's no speed limit on the expansion and contraction of space," White said at the conference. "You can actually find a way to get around what I like to call the 11th commandment: Thou shall not exceed the speed of light." It's the idea of space warps that inspired physicist Miguel Alcubierre in 1994 to first theorize a mathematical model of a warp drive that would be able to bend space and time. While studying Alcubierre's equations, White decided to design his own retooled version of the Alcubierre Drive. His recently unveiled design has much less empty space than the first concept model, increasing its efficiency. The warp drive that White's team has been working on would literally transcend space, shortening the distance between two points and allowing the craft to break the speed of light. This would be a spaceship with no speed limit. Because travel into space has been extremely limited due to existing means of propulsion, such a technology could blow open the possibilities of space exploration. It could allow for study of the farthest reaches of space, parts that scientists once considered unimaginable. Although the technology to create the spacecraft or the warp drive doesn't yet exist, the artistic renderings Rademaker created could potentially be a model of what's to come -- the first spacecraft to break the speed-of-light barrier and journey beyond our solar system. In his design, White says he drew from Matthew Jeffries' 1965 sketches of the Enterprise from "Star Trek," saying parts of that ship were mathematically correct. He worked with Rademaker and graphic designer Mike Okuda to update the math and produce what he believes to be a viable spacecraft. According to NASA, there hasn't been any proof that a warp drive can exist, but the agency is experimenting nonetheless. Although the concept doesn't violate the laws of physics, that doesn't guarantee that it will work. "We're starting to talk about what the next chapter for human space exploration going to be," White said at SpaceVision. Comment below. Latest

Facebook's (NASDAQ:FB) timeline since going public has many blemishes on it. Between its initial debut on the Nasdaq and well publicized insider selling, the social media giant has experienced enough obstacles to last a lifetime. Shares of the company declined after reporting its latest quarterly results, but Facebook continues to grow its social presence.
After Wednesday's closing bell, the world's largest social media company released earnings for only the third time since going public last May. Facebook posted a profit of $64 million (3 cents per share), compared to $302 million (14 cents per share) a year earlier. Excluding share-based compensation and tax items, earnings came in at 17 cents per share, topping estimates by 2 cents.
Although the bottom-line took a 79 percent hit on a GAAP basis, Facebook is still growing its amount of users.
As the chart above shows, Facebook attracted 1.056 billion monthly active users, as of the end of December. This represents a 4.9 percent increase from the prior quarter, and a 25 percent jump from a year earlier. Last October, Mark Zuckerberg, co-founder and chief executive officer, announced that Facebook reached a total of 1 billion active users worldwide.
Daily usage is also on the rise…

The Global Fellows Program brings academics, practitioners, government officials and postdoctoral scholars from around the world to NYU for up to one year to conduct and present their research for future publication.
The principal objective of the Global Fellows Program at NYU School of Law is the production of scholarship through the advancement of research. We have a notable history of hosting distinguished scholars, judges, lawyers and government officials who wish to spend time advancing their scholarship and engaging in the intellectual life of the Law School. Fellows are welcome to participate in academic activities such as fora, lectures, colloquia, seminars and conferences. They are also invited to various social events, including some organized specifically for global fellows and others aimed at the broader community.
Through the Global Fellows Forums, Global Fellows share their research with colleagues, students, and faculty and receive comment and feedback. In this way, they contribute to the intellectual life of the Law School and provide an opportunity for the community to learn about current law research from a global perspective and in a wide range of topics. The primary goal of the Global Fellows Program is the enhancement of research and it is expected that participation in the Program will result in a substantial publishable piece of scholarship.
In recent years, we have introduced a specialized postdoctoral programming component designed especially for our Post-Doctoral Global Fellows (fellows who have attained their doctoral degrees within the past four years and who have not yet secured a tenure-track academic appointment at an institution), in partnership with the JSD program, to provide opportunities for the presentation of works-in-progress and the exploration of methodological questions in legal research.
The Global Fellows Program continues to reach out to universities around the world to encourage application and participation in this program. Past Global Fellows have gone on to become well-respected scholars in their area of expertise and have been invited back to the Law School as Global Law Faculty. Potential fellows are encouraged to review the extensive course offerings, colloquia and special events on this and the Law School's web site to better understand the ways in which they may be enriched by their time at NYU School of Law and the Law School enriched by them.
Global Fellows Program Categories
- Global and Senior Global Research Fellows are tenured or tenure-track academics with a demonstrable background of strong legal scholarship. More senior academics (for example, faculty members tenured for ten years or more) may be designated as Senior Global Research Fellows at the discretion of the selection committee.
- Global and Senior Global Fellows from Practice & Government are government officials, judges, officials from international organizations, and lawyers in private practice who wish to take a semester or academic year away from their posts to engage in serious scholarship. More experienced officials and practitioners may be designated as Senior Global Fellows from Practice & Government at the discretion of the selection committee.
- Post-Doctoral Global Fellows are postdoctoral scholars who have attained their doctoral degrees within the past four years and who have not yet secured a tenure-track academic appointment at an institution. Post-Doctoral Global Fellows meeting these eligibility requirements may be considered for a merit-based postdoctoral stipend of US$30,000 for the academic year (or US$15,000 per academic semester), subject to tax.
- Emile Noël Fellows are postdoctoral or tenured academics with a demonstrable background of legal scholarship on the themes prioritized by the Jean Monnet Center for International and Regional Economic Law & Justice.
Any questions regarding the Global Fellows Program should be directed to firstname.lastname@example.com.

Healthy Children
– by Carissa Leventis-Cox
Let's un-process our children's food: prepare everything from scratch and eliminate processed foods as much as possible.
Although we call them 'food', processed foods are not readily recognized by the body. They are seen as alien matter and our white blood cells will be on attack mode as soon as they enter our system.
Most of all, processed foods create more waste: Processed foods create toxins in our systems and cause degenerative diseases; and since processed foods require more energy and packing material, they create more waste for our planet, too.
Repercussions: Our Children's Health
Studies have shown that processed foods are contributing to our children's emotional and/or health disorders. Recently, processed foods have been shown to adversely affect our children's intelligence. And yet, processed foods are still everywhere: in home kitchens, restaurants, cafeterias, and worse of all, they are used as gifts and rewards for children.
A few months ago, my friend Christina told me her children's teacher at school gives Potato Chip parties every Friday for the best performing student of the week. The kids also receive daily Candy Rewards for good behavior. My niece Lia is in preschool and candy rewards are there too. And it doesn't end at school. There are always boxed juices, frosted cupcakes and pinatas full of more candy at birthday parties. Doctors visits end with lollipops.
Shouldn't We Reward Positive with Positive?
What adults are essentially saying to children is "You are so good! Here's some junk food that causes disease!" Why does our culture encourage this shameful and imbalanced exchange?
Is it correct to reward our good children with processed foods containing empty calories and zero nutrients? Is it right that we give them foods that negatively affect their future health? Is it acceptable that by rewarding with these processed foods that children will be more resistant to eating whole foods? Is it suitable that we are allowing children to crave junk foods by using them as rewards?
According to Joanne Ikeda, a nutrition education specialist highly regarded for her work on childhood obesity, these are all the factors why foods (especially candy) must not be used as rewards for good behavior.
What's A Mama To Do?!
After a whole year of my son pestering me for the same lollipops he's seen other kids eating ("Mama, REAL lollipops not my Banana Lollipops"), I finally ran out of distraction tactics or maybe he just wore me down. So the other day, this Raw Vegan Mama succumbed to buying organic processed lollies for her son. He's only allowed 1 a week, which he rarely remembers and hubby and I conveniently forget to remind him.
The top 3 ingredients are: organic evaporated cane juice, organic tapioca syrup and organic rice syrup. Not bad, no high-fructose corn syrup at least. But all 3 ingredients are still processed foods. I sigh – almost defeated. If you've read Is Sugar Toxic? you wouldn't want your children to consume any kind of processed sugars either.
What are your tactics to keep your children's food un-processed?

In much less-reported news, trans women in California prisons experience gross sexual misconduct and abuse by prison staff.
CeCe McDonald, a trans woman incarcerated in Minnesota, recently asked supporters to write letters on behalf of Jenni Gann, a trans woman incarcerated in California's (male) Kern Valley State Prison. As a transgender woman, Jenni has repeatedly experienced sexual harassment during cross-gender strip searches. This has included ridiculing her anatomy, threating her, and exposing her to male inmates.

at five weeks: The fetus is approximately 1/2 inch long. The eyes, nose, and mouth are beginning to show. Human growth takes place from the head downward. Therefore, the head develops much more rapidly than the rest of the body; however, it also take more time to develop because of its complexity. Development of the head will continue long after birth. The arms and legs are extremely short at this time, but the hands and feet are starting to take shape, and the fingers are starting to form, but are still very webbed.
at six and a half weeks: The iris and pupil are developing, but the eyelid has not yet formed. As the eye (a complex system of muscles and nerves) takes several weeks to develop, exposure to alcohol can result in a number of muscle and vision problems.
at Eight weeks: The 1-1/2 inch long fetus still has a great deal of development ahead. The brain develops throughout gestation. Any time a woman drinks, it can influence how her baby's brain develops. If alcohol is present in the mother's body, it will cross the placenta into the fetus's body. While waiting for the alcohol to go back to the mother's body for processing, the fetus will excrete the alcohol into the amniotic fluid and re-ingest it many times. The blood alcohol content of the fetus will be the same as the mothers - for at least twice as long!
at Eleven weeks: the fingers are forming. Alcohol can impact the development of the joints and the placement of the fingers on the hand. Cocaine is a vasoconstrictor, so if the blood is unable to flow properly to the fingers, they will not obtain normal length. In some case, when a pregnant woman uses cocaine, the 3rd section of a finger may not form at all.
at Thirteen weeks: The eye is well developed and the lids close for several months, and the nose is short in comparison to a newborn (much of the additional growth in length occurs after birth). A picture of the fetus at this point would show how alcohol slows facial development resulting in typical FASD characteristics.
at Seventeen weeks: The fingers and fingernails are formed, as are the creases in the palm of the hand, normally formed by the fetus opening and closing the hand repeatedly. A drunk fetus won't move as often, and this contributes to the creases not forming properly.
Anytime after implantation of the blastocyst , when a woman drinks alcohol, it crosses the placenta into the baby's body and has the potential to damage whatever is developing at the time in the fetus. The amount of damage depends on many factors. However, alcohol is a teratogen more damaging to the fetus than crack cocaine, than heroin, than marijuana. Women want to be good mothers. They want to give birth to healthy babies, even if giving the baby up for adoption. No woman purposely drinks in order to intentionally give birth to a child with brain damage! An integral part of the disease of alcoholism is denial. If a woman is pregnant and drinking, she needs help and support. Anytime a woman stops drinking during pregnancy, her baby will be healthier than if she continues consuming alcohol.

I've Got a Secret: Makinbg & Breaking Codes: This FLC introduces students to encryption (code-making) and decryption (code-breaking). The science of cryptography will be presented within an historical context from the writing of lost civilizations through the role of Navajo code talkers in WWII to the current debate over individual privacy vs. public secruity. Grounded in basic mathematical and computer science concepts, this FLC should appeal to a broad range of students from language and linguistics students whyo see language itself as a code to math students who like puzzle-solving and justice science students interested in electronic crime.
Body and Brain Power: Keeping Yourself Healthy: With its large medical center, UAB is the perfect place to investigate your own health and develop self-help strategies to promote those behaviors that will help you do your best at UAB and achieve your career goals. Topics range from "Managing Stress," "Cold or Flu?", and "Food for the Body, Mind, and Good Grades" to "Time Management" and "Personality types and Learning Styles." This FLC will help make your transition to college fun, successful, and healthy!
Exploring Birmingham: This FLC introduces students to the varied social, political and economic aspects of the largest city in Alabama through experiential learning. Even students who grew up in the Birmingham metropolitan area will be astonished by this exploration of the city they've taken for granted. Students will conduct empirical research doing field work in different areas of the Birmingham community and evaluating historical visual documents. This FLC will appeal to students who seek to integrate their academic interests with real world issues.
We are the People: The American Political Process: Beginning with an historical appreciation of political development at the local, state, national, and international levels, this FLC introduces students to interpreting and analyzing political ideas and the data used in the political process. By understanding such political phenomenon as insincere voting, apportionment, and weighted voting, students will be able to make more informed civic decisions. Field trips to relevant local and state government sites are included.
Global Communities: The events of 9/11 tragically highlight the fact that grievances and issues in distant lands can impact our daily lives in America. This FLC enlarges student awareness of the complexity of global problems, promotes cross-cultural and linguistic understanding, and encourages active, ethical, and responsible engagement in international affairs. Through writing, readings, movies, discussion, field trips, and food, students prepare themselves to promote good will and cross-cultural understanding in increasingly diverse environments.
Health without Borders: Issues of health are no longer concerns of single nations or communities. This FLC explores such health concerns as SARS, Avian flu, West Nile virus, and Mad Cow Disease, all challenges that transcend national boundaries. Students will learn how globalization, environmental changes, population dynamics, political systems, tradition, culture, natural resources, and economic development impact current and emerging public health issues around the world. This FLC has particular relevance for majors in international relations, pre-health, nursing, environmental science, anthropology, sociology, biology, and economics.
Preparing for an Engineering Career: This FLC is for students interested in engineering but not yet ready for Calculus I.

Oh yeah the Kanade x Otonashi ship just set sail! Let the crazy fanart begin!
The episode does a lot to begin the probable friendship between Otonashi and Kanade. She does seem like a very laid-back sort of girl which belies what Otonashi believes is her plight in this world, that given her personality it might be understandable why she doesn't seem to have any friends. Ayato's ability sort of proves that to some degree, the humans of this world have the capacity to somehow alter the system to grant to themselves abilities that no regular human would have access to, in a Matrix style "I know kung-fu" sort of way. Making the connection between Ayato's acknowledgment issues and his abusive behavior seems a bit of a stretch to me, but then this is Key, so it's a bit expected. I guess my only complaint is that the bloodbath loses some of it's impact and severity again because no one really dies. I mean sure they likely feel a lot of pain and such, but the mortal reality and gravity of the fact doesn't really exist in this situation. The biggest part for me is Ayato's suggestion before his backstory, regarding being their own gods. I'll probably expound on that in the spoilers thread. |

For some reason, near the beginning of Naoi's story, at the part about 'my brother died and they told me I died and I became my brother', I was just so completely reminded of Tsukihime. I even went 'Mystic Eyes of Death Perception!?" when I saw him in the hospital bed.
Don't mind me, just some random thoughts.

Naoi is another Shinji Ikari to me. The problems they have is very similar and the say the same things about there life. Not to mention they both are voiced by the same person. Comapred there lines and you will realized it don't seem much different form each other.

A pretty big episode. I mean damn Naoi had a pretty solid plan laid out. He could use the normal students as human shields since the SSS wouldn't fight back against them. Hypnotize the SSS to think they had resolved their issues and they would vanish. That would really just leave Tenshi as the only danger. But he could just keep her locked up since he thought that would work, or he could just ignore her. Really Tenshi only took action when she was the president and without that position she probably wouldn't interfere with Naoi.
I have to give Yuri credit since giving that communicator to Otonashi saved the day. It seemed kind of random, but maybe she somewhat predicted this situation. She could see Otonashi had some sympathy toward Tenshi and might get closer to her. Also it was probable that Tenshi would be seen as a threat and be held prisoner. At the right timing she got into contact with Otonashi and he got Tenshi to take action which got them out. Obviously its questionable how much of this situation Yuri predicted. I do have to give her credit for that small action though. Wow that was close though. A real massacre that could have been the end of the SSS. Though I do wonder just what they are going to do now.

Very entertaining episode.
...As in, it felt so cheap, I couldn't help but laugh. Of course, the Look-at-me-and-my-sad-story at the end was repetitive and enough to leave me Besides, I already saw this plot before. Staff wanted a sad story and just picked it off one of them? Must mean the end of the anime will solve everything with a Spirit Convention... Talk about boring antagonist. A amnesiac manages to calm the guy's life-long fury down and make him all mellow with one lecture on life. Great. That scene is... supposed to be sad, right? The one where Otonashi is screaming his heart out? Joke? People all wounded? They ain't dying anyways. The sheer mention of hypnosis is enough to make me laugh, but when a guy going Kira uses his eyes, that glow for some reason, to do some poor job of hypnosis (you really think she's gonna be satisfied with that delusion? Really?), it's priceless. I thought the next season of Geass hasn't started yet... Tenshi's weapon can transform. Heh~ New setting. Previous episodes = Yui kawaii! This = Eh... Yurippe: Tenshi is the enemy --> Let's kill her when she comes to the live --> Take this trap, for coming to the underground base --> Invasion of Tenshi's privacy --> Bully Tenshi and ruin her position at school --> Oh crap... --> Save me, Tenshi! (-_-) Anyways, the previous episode was great. This one was terrible. But I'm not disappointed at all. It just went back to the way it was. Oh, but TK was as awesome as ever. "I'll be back"

Anyway, I liked the ep, up until the last couple minutes. Yui-nyan is hilarious as always, goofing off in class (I'll take a chip...and EAT IT!)... and especially the Otonashi-Kanade interactions. And I'm really hoping that we'll see HS V2-4 used for something other than opening doors. |

holy fuck that was epic.
As always, awesome character development from Key. Even in just a 13 episode series, to get this much out of it...I really hope there's a season 2. Also, Spoiler:
And I want the OST. NOW. T_T Dammit, June is when the DVD's come out. I will get them. (hopes they can be played in PAL and have Eng subtitles :> ) |

Pat Shingleton: "Saluting 'Old Glory'"
Hopefully you're "flyin' the flag" today. Our own "giant American flag" is at Robinson Brother's at Airline and Sherwood. Before Chip Robinson, his Dad, Mackey, began this tradition to Old Glory. Whether it's a gentle breeze, or a hefty gust, the Robertson Brother's flag is a tremendous tribute. Today is Flag Day, originating in 1885 when B.J. Cigrand, encouraged his students in Fredonia, N.Y., to proudly display the flag of the United States of America. Today also commemorates the official anniversary of the adoption of the Stars and Stripes at the Betsy Ross House on June 14, 1891. Ours is flown from sunrise to sunset, illuminated at night. It shouldn't be flown in rain or inclement weather; is raised briskly and lowered slowly at sunset.

For Sale:
SOLD: Peerless MB Orthodynamic Drivers [Restored, 1 pair] [Still Available]
Will Ship To: Anywhere
Up for grabs is a pair of fully restored PMB orthodynamic drivers.
PMB was an OEM company for a lot of orthodynamic headphones back in the 1970's. This particular pair of drivers came out of a Bang & Olufsen U70. When I received them, they were working, but the sound would cut out at loud passages. This was the result of some slight corrosion on the rings and pins of the driver. I fully disassembled them and removed the oxidization with an emory cloth and they have been restored to full working order.
The U70 was a gift for a friend and since he couldn't hope to power the stock U70 drivers I replaced them with some efficient dynamics. This is the only reason I am selling these.
These can be used to repair any PMB-made orthodynamic with 55mm drivers or as transplants for a DIY project.
I'll also throw in a pair of rockwool-like damping discs for an additional $10 (these came out of the U70 as well).
Asking price is $50 including PayPal fees and PriorityMail shipping, and is open to discussion. PM me with offers.
Warranty Information: (Click to show)
As with all of my refurbished items, I will warrant that they are free of defects for 14 days after purchase. If they stop working during this period while under normal usage and stress, you may return them and I will refund the purchase price.
This does not cover burned or punctured diaphragms, overvolting, soldering mishaps, water damage, physical abuse, or anything else not caused by normal wear and tear.

The Memorial Hospital has set the date to begin the process of moving into its new facility.
On Oct. 15, TMH will have ownership occupancy, meaning the building is 90 to 95 percent complete and the hospital can begin to move in furniture and equipment.
The new facility, off of Moffat County Road 7, will open and be fully functional on or about Nov. 12, said Samantha Johnston, TMH service excellence officer.
The month in between will provide time for essential training and development.
"It's a big facility that the staff will see completed for the first time," Johnston said. "There are a lot of differences like the security system and operational workflow. They will need to spend time getting oriented to new equipment and workflow, and learn how to interface with other departments."
New security systems keep patients in different departments separate from one another to ensure privacy and safety.
The new configuration, however, will require completely new interdepartmental procedures, so extra steps will be taken to ensure the staff is familiar with the new workflow.
"When we open the doors, we want it to be flawless," Johnston said. "We want people to not know the difference if we were open for a day or open for a year."
TMH also will be conducting several open houses to allow the public to see the building in its entirety.
"This will be the only opportunity the public will have to see the whole thing," Johnston said. "Simply because it's so secure and we have taken such care to keep the patients separate form the public."
Johnston said TMH is excited to be able to move in ahead of schedule.
"It's great to be able to move in and move the patients while the weather is still great," she said. "And it'll be before the holidays for the employees. There are also some cost efficiencies. We expect to see some savings on the project because the crews will be out there two months shorter than we planned."
And although the $42.6 million project is nearing an end, TMH can't slow down now, Johnston said.
"We really have to be on our game and have all of our ducks in a row to have this happen on our accelerated schedule," she said.

Mesh Color
All Knoll Life chairs come standard with a mesh suspension fabric that is durable, flexible and available in a wide range of colors.
Lumbar Support
The Knoll Life chair provides built-in lumbar support with the shape of the back frame and the back suspension fabric. However, the addition of an adjustable lumbar support offers more customizable comfort and superior support. The adjustable lumbar support mounts to your chair with magnets and features slow-recovery foam covered in your choice of three fabrics.
A black urethane headrest can be attached to your Knoll Life chair to add extra neck and head support. The headrest features 3" of height adjustment along 12 positions, and is a perfect match to the chair's frame and arm rests. Please note that the headrest is not compatible with a back topper.
Seat Height
Choose a cylinder to complement the user's height and workstation. Seat heights ranges vary as listed below:- Standard cylinder: 16" - 21.5"
- Low cylinder: 15"- 19"
- High cylinder: 17.5" - 22.75"
The Knoll Life Chair ia available in three different types of armrests, or you can opt for no arms.- Fixed arms do not adjust; they are available with plastic arm posts and an integrally colored thermoplastic urethane pad with a glass-filled nylon insert
- Height adjustable arms offer a 4" range of height adjustment that goes 5.5" - 9.5" from the seat, and they feature grey plastic arm posts and integrally colored thermoplastic urethane pads with a glass-filled nylon inserts

Leather Arm Pads
Knoll Life chair arms are available in Sabrina or Volo Spinneybeck leather upholstery. This custom option will add two weeks to manufacturing time.
Seat Topper
The Life chair comes with or without a seat topper, and we strongly recommend the purchase of a seat topper for your comfort, especially if you sit for longer than five hours a day. The standard foam seat topper is 1.75" thick.
Knit Seat Toppers
Sabrina Leather
Sabrina leather is a very popular full grain leather. The special retannage Sabrina receives provides a smooth, tight grain and supple hand, making it an excellent choice for both elegance and high-traffic use. The average thickness is 0.9 - 1 mm, and the average weight is 2.25 - 2.5 oz per square foot. Sabrina leather is Greenguard certified and available in 114 colors.
Volo Leather
Volo leather is a lightly corrected, aniline leather. The light correction process refines the surface so it better accepts the grain enhancement done prior to finishing. Volo receives a special retannage that tightens the grain and provides a finer hand that other corrected leathers.
Ultra Topper
For added comfort, upgrade your seat topper to a 2.25" thick foam Ultra Topper.
Back Topper
Both back and seat toppers snap quickly on or off the Life chair, making it easy to change the look of your chair as often as you'd like. Standard back topper is 3/4" thick foam.
Select from four low profile bases.
Select from three caster colors available for carpet or hard floors. Glides are also available on the Life ergonomic chair if casters are not necessary.

Professor Ergo's Thoughts:
I like to recommend the Knoll Life Chair to people looking for a comfortable ergonomic chair that's easy to use and adjust. This is a slim and efficient chair that offers a lot of support without the bulk. The Life Chair may look slight, but it's a strong ergo chair that's built to last with high quality materials. Add the optional seat and back toppers for more cushiony comfort.

Knoll Life Chair
July 25, 2012
I am very satisfied with the support provided by the Knoll Life Chair and the adjustability of it. The one thing that I would change is that there is no seat topper that is included with the basic chair. I assumed that there would be some sort of cushion associated with it and so did not order a seat topper. However, there is no cushion at all and, while comfortable, the seat gets very hard if you are sitting in it for a long time. I would recommend that some sort of cushion be included with the basic chair.

When I retired, I couldn't bear to leave my wonderful Knoll Life office chair. I was delighted to find that The Human Solution offered all the options available for these chairs. At home now I'm still spending many hours at my computer, and the Knoll Life chair is keeping my back happy.

Chair is very comfortable, but make sure you get the casters for hard floors. If you use a chair mat to move around on, the casters start peeling and make a mess!

Very adjustable. Seat could use a little more padding but that may just be a mesh chair thing. Overall very good.

Forget about chef's counters, science-grade immersion circulators, and CombiMaster ovens. Today's ultimate restaurant accessory is the rooftop garden, which can function as a marketing tool as much as an on-site produce aisle. Although not every restaurant garden is on a roof (see Riverpark), and not every rooftop farm is above a restaurant (see Brooklyn Grange), it's safe to say that every chef with a garden connection will flaunt it with a signature plate of greens, especially at the height of the growing season. Here, then, our assessment of five takes on the rooftop salad—the freshly snipped symbol of this locavore moment and expression of big-city terroir.

Smashbox Be Legendary Long Wear Lip Lacquer
It looks like a lip gloss, feels like a lip gloss, but one look in the mirror—hours later—will tell you that this lacquer is a heck of a lot more. A generous splash of vitamin E helps keep color in place without any shriveling.
Cover FX Blemish Treatment Concealer
Cover FX Blemish Treatment Concealer
Unless you read the fine print, you'd never know this elegant stick, which comes in 10 shades, is spiked with skin enhancers. Salicylic acid and bisabolol zap acne and inflammation, yet the formula blends and covers as well as any unmedicated version we've tried.
Remington 3-in-1 Styler
Remington 3-in-1 Styler
The cords of your flatiron, curler, and dryer shouldn't resemble Clark Griswold's Christmas lights. This multitasker can help you declutter. Two detachable sleeves—one rounded, one studded with spikes—transform this straightener into a curler and a volumizer. But here's the thing: All three functions actually work, meaning you can be Gisele one day and Ariana Grande the next.

Serge Normant Dream Big Instant Volumizing Spray
Like a push-up bra for lackluster strands, this translucent blend of polymers and white lupine protein lifts, plumps, and perks. Even better, unlike most volumizers that have to go on sopping strands, this one is meant for dry ones.
Murad Invisiblur Perfecting Shield SPF 30 PA+++
Murad Invisiblur Perfecting Shield SPF 30 PA+++
Some sunscreens claim to be invisible, but, well ... they're not. Murad is so confident about its claim that the formula actually comes in a transparent vial. But sunscreen is just the start. Peptides encourage collagen production, while black currant and rosemary improve overall texture.
Ciaté Geltox Starter Kit
Ciaté Geltox Starter Kit
Gel color options generally leave much to be desired. But this topcoat ups the ante, lending any polish the longevity of a gel. Paint as usual, sweep on the clear lacquer, then hold under the included LED for a minute. Chip-free tips last up to three weeks.
Rita Hazan Weekly Remedy
Rita Hazan Weekly Remedy
Hair always looks happiest the day it gets colored, mostly because stylists break out the big-gun conditioners to minimize the damage of dyes. This duo—a cuticle-opening blend, allowing for deeper penetration of hydrators, followed by amoisturizing rice protein—replicates that same effect,only at home on a weekly basis.
Sarah Potempa Beachwaver S1
Sarah Potempa Beachwaver S1
Spinning electronic devices near the hair sounds like trouble, no? That's what you might think until you try this self-rotating barrel. Hair smoothly wraps around the ceramic wand, making defined curls or loose waves. Two speeds, an adjustable temperature gauge, and arrows to control direction eliminate burns and impatience.

Corporate | Banking | Credit Cards | Merchant Credit Cards FAQ
How Does the Transaction Process Work?Essentially, the transaction process is a series of purchases, beginning with the cardholder.
From the cardholder's point of view it seems as if he or she is paying the issuer for the goods or services originally purchased from the merchant. In fact, the cardholder is actually repaying a loan from the issuer.
Your Discount RateIn the hospitality industry, Visa and MasterCard have established sixteen different pricing levels for their respective card types. This often leads to confusion for merchants trying to assess the varied pricing in proposals they receive. At First Tennessee, we prefer to fully disclose our processing costs by "unbundling" them. This helps our clients fully understand what rate is paid based on transaction qualification as determined by Visa/MasterCard. For any processor, there are three fee components of a discount rate: Interchange, Assessment, and Processor Revenue.
What is Interchange?Visa and MasterCard charge a processing or "interchange" fee on every sale. Interchange is paid to the cardholder's issuing institution and reflects processing expenses, including the cost of credit and fraud losses. This fee is determined by the type of card presented, the type of business that is accepting the card, and the processing environment. Interchange provides revenue to the issuing bank, not the card processor. All processors must pay the same interchange rates.
What is assessment?Assessment is the amount paid to the associations of Visa and MasterCard. For all bankcard transactions, a processor must currently pay Visa 0.084% and MasterCard 0.095%. Again, this provides no revenue to processors and all processors pay the same assessments.
How can I get the lowest interchange rate?In order to qualify for the lowest interchange rate, the card's magnetic stripe must be read by the terminal (i.e. cardholder is present) and sales must be deposited and settled daily. The processing rate will be higher for a transaction manually keyed or not deposited and settled through the terminal until the next day.
What is an Authorization, and how does it work?Authorizing a transaction helps protect you against fraudulent card use, and confirms the cardholder's account is valid and within the available spending limit. You can obtain an authorization two ways. Either electronically through a point-of-sale terminal, or through a voice authorization.
It is important to obtain an authorization whenever possible with special consideration to the following instances:
What is a Chargeback?Occasionally, a cardholder will be billed but will dispute a transaction. A chargeback is a monetary request for information where the property's checking account is debited for the amount of the chargeback pending the outcome. This is different than a Retrieval Request, which is a non-monetary request for information and the property's checking account is not debited.
Chargebacks can occur for the any of the following reasons:

Anyone? Preferably Jung/Myers-Briggs.
I want to take a really reliable test.
My favorites are
The Duniho and Duniho Life Pattern Indicator
10 Second MBTI Test by VagrantFarce
10 second test is not necessarily 'in depth', but it is surprisingly more accurate than long but dichotomy-based tests.
I can't get the first test you linked me to to work.
Second one, (10 second test) I got ENTP. Hmm.
Any others?
Try these?
F/D Preference-Order Indicator
Kalil's Personality Assessment
