Revision as of 13:45, 3 January 2013
For Orion 2.0, we are investigating client side implementations that do not depend on a particular javascript library, and instead use raw HTML5/CSS3 constructs where possible.
At the DOM manipulation level, this is made largely possible by our adoption of IE10 for Orion 2.0, since it includes many HTML5 features that were not available in in IE9. Since we no longer need to rely on shims and other workarounds for missing features, we should be able to use the browser native API for things like events, CSS class manipulation, etc.
For UI components, or widgets, that we need in the UI, we will look at existing small, library-independent implementations of the functionality, as well as considering our own implementation. Any custom implementations should be as small/simplified as possible, satisfying Orion use cases but not starting out with the intention to be an independently consumable component.
This document outlines what would be needed to reduce or eliminate our dependence on dojo in favor of these other approaches.
Advantages of library independence
- Orion consumers wish to make their own choices regarding JavaScript libraries and UI plugins, and do not wish to bring in other libraries (such as dojo) when they depend on a different library.
- Orion consumers who use the same libraries as us (such as dojo) wish to switch versions at their own pace.
- Simplified learning curve for consumers
- theming doesn't require understanding of a separate library/widget level theming mechanism
- we don't force consumers to learn multiple conventions/life cycles in the UI (dijit lifecycle vs. Orion, dijit layout vs. raw CSS, etc.).
Existing dependencies and proposed replacements
The remainder of this document categorizes our dependencies and gives status on the replacement candidates.
DOM manipulation
We extensively use the dojo.* utility methods. Many of these are now available in our supported browser set. The following list shows method usage and replacement. A small library (orion/webui/littlelib) implements a few methods. Examples referring to "lib" are using this module.
- dojo.byId
document.getElementById(id); lib.node(id); // when you aren't sure if you have an id or node, useful for inbound API calls
- dojo.query
element.querySelector(selector, parentNode); element.querySelectorAll(selector, parentNode); lib.$(selector, parentNode); // one node lib.$$(selector, parentNode); // node list lib.$$array(selector.parentNode); // array of nodes
- dojo.addClass, removeClass, toggleClass
element.classList.add('class'); // one at a time element.classList.remove('class'); element.classList.contains('class'); element.classList.toggle('class');
- dojo.connect/disconnect
- dojo.style
element.style.visibility = "hidden"; element.style.left = "1px";
- dojo.place
For node placement, use the addChild/appendChild/insertBefore DOM equivalents. If placing HTML, use innerHTML, parse HTML with a document fragment, or convert to dynamic DOM node creation when security is an issue.
(See bug bug 392469 for security discussion).
- dojo.create
var element = document.createElement("a"); // good old dom API element.tabIndex = 0; // set the properties directly if they were used in the create api element.setAttribute("aria-label", "foo"); // set attributes when there is not a browser standard property
- dojo.position
- dojo.empty
- dojo.attr, removeAttr
element.setAttribute(); element.getAttribute();
General JavaScript utilities
- dojo.hitch
this.myFunction.bind(this); // when referring to a function by name var self = this; window.setTimeout(function() { self.update(); }, 0); // bind "this" to a variable when creating an anonymous function
- dojo.keys constants
hash and hash change
- dojo.hash
// window.location.hash contains the # whereas dojo.hash() did not window.addEventListener("hashchange", function() { window.location.hash; }, false);
i18n utilities
- dojo.string substitution
i18nUtil.formatMessage("this has ${0} parameters ${1}", "one", "two"); // note that it's not an array like dojo.string.substitute
- formatting strings
someDate.toLocaleString(); someNumber.toLocaleString();
Deferred / Promise support
- dojo.Deferred
use orion.Deferred. Note that you should use resolve, not callback. And reject, not errback.
- dojo.DeferredList
Deferred.all(promises, function(error) {return error; }).then(function(resultsArray) {}); // note that you MUST have an error handler argument or else the promises will not be processed after an error is found. // the results array has either the result or whatever you returned in the error function.
dijit Menu support
dijit Dialogs
See Programming an Orion Dialog for detailed information about Orion dialogs and templates.
dijit Layout support
- Replace common page use of dijit BorderContainer, ContentPane, Splitter
- Settings page uses custom dijit layouts
- Some pages (compare, search replace) use internal dijit layout such as BorderContainer
Orion custom dijits
- domain-specific widgets don't need a framework, replace with application level code
- plugin related widgets (plugin entry, plugin list, service carousel)
- site editor
- settings layout widgets replaced with CSS/splitter (SettingsContainer, SplitSelectionLayout)
- settings custom field widgets (TextField, Select, Toggles, Buttoms) replaced with HTML5 dom elements
- settings section moved to existing Orion section support
move unused dijit-based experiments out of orion repository
- plugin maker

Foods That Cause Plaque Buildup in the Arteries
You've probably heard that what you eat can greatly affect your cardiovascular health. But knowing which foods to choose — and which to skip — to achieve your health goals, can be confusing. Rest assured, heart-healthy eating doesn't have to be complicated. Find out how to avoid the foods that can lead to plaque buildup and fill your plate with healthy alternatives instead.
The Power of Food
Certain foods can cause the body to make too much of a waxy substance called cholesterol. Cholesterol can combine with fat, calcium, and other substances in the blood to form plaque. Plaque then slowly builds up and hardens in the arteries, causing them to narrow. This buildup of plaque, a condition called atherosclerosis, can lead to heart disease, heart attack, and stroke.
The good news? When we focus our diets on healthy foods, we can stop and potentially even reverse this narrowing of the arteries. Experts know that food that contributes to high levels of blood cholesterol contains too much saturated fat, trans fat, and dietary cholesterol. The information below can help you identify problem foods and get your arteries into healthier shape.
Saturated Fat
Saturated fat is a main dietary culprit in the buildup of plaque in the arteries. As a result, experts suggest trying to keep saturated fat to less than 7% of total daily calories. A primary source of saturated fat is animal products. Certain oils are high in saturated fat, too. Examples of food high in saturated fat include:
- Whole milk and cream
- Butter
- High-fat cheese
- High-fat cuts of meat, such as those that look "marbled" with fat
- Processed meats, including sausage, hot dogs, salami and bologna
- Ice cream
- Palm and coconut oils, which are often added to packaged and prepared foods, such as cookies, doughnuts, and even 'healthful' energy bars
To cut down on saturated fat:
- Choose leaner cuts of meat over high-fat meat. Lean beef cuts include the round, chuck, sirloin, or loin. Lean pork cuts include tenderloin or loin chops. Trim visible fat before cooking.
- Remove skin from turkey or chicken before cooking.
- Choose 1% or fat-free milk over higher fat milk.
- When reheating soups, skim the solid fat off the top first.
- Eat plenty of fruits and vegetables, which are low in saturated fat.
Trans Fat
Trans fat is a type of man-made fat that is found in foods that contain partially hydrogenated oil. It forms when hydrogen is added to liquid oil, turning it into solid fat. Trans fat is found in many processed and restaurant foods, because it improves taste and texture and prolongs the shelf life of foods. Experts recommend trying to consume as little trans fat as possible.
Not all processed foods contain trans fat. And more and more food manufacturers and restaurant owners are beginning to take it out of their foods. Still, some of the biggest contributors of trans fat in our diet include fried foods and fast foods, microwave popcorn and other savory snacks, frozen pizza, margarine, cake, cookies, and more.
To avoid trans fat:
Read the nutrition label before buying packaged or processed foods. Look for 0 grams of trans fat. Also, scan the ingredient list. If the words "partially hydrogenated" appear anywhere, skip the product. Because products containing fewer than 0.5 grams of trans fat per serving can be labeled as trans fat-free, the only way to tell for sure is to check the ingredients.
Seek out restaurants that have chosen not to use partially hydrogenated oils in their cooking.
Order foods steamed, baked, broiled or grilled over fried whenever possible.
- Try to eat less processed food.
Dietary Cholesterol
Although fats in your diet are the biggest contributors to high LDL, or "bad," cholesterol, dietary cholesterol matters, too. Cholesterol is found only in animal products, such as eggs, meat, and cheese. Experts recommend aiming for less than 200 mg of cholesterol in your food each day.
To reduce your dietary cholesterol:
- Read food labels whenever possible. Choose products that are low in cholesterol, as well as in saturated fat and trans fat.
- Avoid liver meat, which is very high in cholesterol.
- Substitute egg whites for whole eggs. The cholesterol in eggs is all in the yolk.
Get Empowered
Although it may not be possible to eat a perfect diet all the time, the key is to make good choices most of the time. Try your best to avoid foods that can lead to plaque buildup. In addition, be sure to make other heart-healthy lifestyle choices, such as not smoking, and exercising regularly. These actions will have a major impact on your cardiovascular health.
Key Takeaways
- Food that contributes to high levels of blood cholesterol contains too much saturated fat, transfat, and dietary cholesterol.
- Saturated fat is a main dietary culprit in plaque buildup. It's found in foods like whole milk, high-fat cheese, ice cream, sausage, and hot dogs
- Trans fat is found in fried foods and fast foods, frozen pizza, margarine, cake, cookies, and more.
- Dietary cholesterol is found only in animal products, such as eggs, meat, and cheese.

I often need a place to play when it's cold and rainy outside. Additionally, I have a friend who is coming to town and has never played indoors before and I want to treat him to a few sets as a treat.
Does anyone know of some indoor courts in the area that are open to the public? I don't mind paying a high price or an expensive day pass to somewhere as long as I get in a couple hours on the court.
I know the PGA Superstores in Frisco and Plano have indoor courts, but the ceilings are rather low and the GM of the Plano store was a real jerk to me the last-time I was there. They're also booked every evening for private lessons so it's hard to get any court time there. They also tag EVERY item in your bag as a security measure. It's a real PITA. Needless to say, I don't like that place.
I've heard rumors that there's a place in Frisco called FieldHouse but I didn't see any info on their site other than offering classes. I don't know if they have legit indoor courts.
For that matter, does anyone know of any courts open to the public that aren't outdoor hardcourt?

April 03, 2013 07:30 ET
KELOWNA, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwired - April 3, 2013) - FISSION ENERGY CORP. (TSX VENTURE:FIS)(OTCQX:FSSIF) ("Fission" or "the Company"), and its Joint Venture partner Alpha Minerals Inc. are pleased to announce results from 4 additional step-out drill targets in the R390E zone at the Patterson Lake South (PLS) property, expanding the strike length to 60m. This zone is one of three discovered by the JV in the current drill program.
All four holes intersected off-scale radioactivity within broader zones of lower but continuous radioactivity and holes PLS13-061 and PLS13-066 have extended the high-grade mineralized section of the zone 15m to the west and 15m to the east respectively. R390E has now been delineated with 9 drill holes and is open in all directions. Extensive follow-up drilling is planned for this zone for the upcoming 2013 summer program.
Ross McElroy, President, COO, and Chief Geologist for Fission, commented:
"As with our other two discovery zones at PLS, this zone continues to see considerable off scale radioactivity as it expands in size. It remains open along strike and width and these results are confirmation of the zone's potential."
An ongoing field program including 9,000m to 10,000m of drilling is in progress and will continue to take advantage of the winter ice expected to last into early April.
Drilling Highlights include:
R390E Zone:
The R390E zone refers to the zone of mineralization located ~390m on-strike to the east of R00E, and first encountered in PLS13-038 (see news release Feb 19, 2013). As is the case with the R00E zone, R390E mineralization is spatially located proximal to the north of the PL-3B basement EM conductor and situated within a well-defined resistivity low corridor. Drillhole interpretation thus far defines the area of mineralization to be associated with a steeply south dipping pelitic (+/- graphitic) lithology sandwiched between a semipelitic gneiss to the north and a quartz-feldspar gneiss to the south, where the mineralization is focused primarily near the contact between the pelitic gneiss and quartz-feldspar gneiss.
Line 420E
Hole PLS13-066 was a vertical hole collared 15m grid east of hole PLS13-051. A 2.1m wide interval of Devonian sandstone (49.7m - 51.8m) overlies the basement quartzitic gneiss hanging wall of the pelitic gneiss corridor. Scintillometer results shows a 64.0m wide continuous zone of weak to strongly radioactive mineralization from 81.5m - 145.5m. The mineralization occurs predominantly within strong to intensely clay altered pelitic gneiss with the top of the mineralized interval developing near the contact of an overlying quartzitic gneiss. Several discrete intervals of off-scale (>9999 cps) radioactivity, ranging in widths of 0.1m - 1.26m were recorded throughout for a total of 5.57m.
Line 360E
Hole PLS13-061 was a vertical hole collared 15m grid west of hole PLS13-053. A 0.6m wide interval of Devonian sandstone (50.5m - 52.1m) overlies basement quartzitic gneiss, and pelitic (+/- graphitic) gneiss. Scintillometer results show four radioactive intervals of variable size and strength of mineralization, ranging in strength from weak to strongly radioactive (Table 1). The intervals range in width from 1.0m to 30.5m within a 63.5m wide (76.5m - 140.0m) basement hosted sequence of predominantly pelitic gneiss, often graphitic. This package is characterized by localized shearing and hematite/clay hydrothermal alteration. Two distinct shear zones with moderate angles to drill core were encountered at 102.7m - 107.2m and 143.3m - 158.8m (35° to 55° to core axis). Weak to strongly radioactive mineralization with off-scale (>9999 cps) was recorded in two of the four mineralized intervals:
Line 405E
Hole PLS13-064 was a vertical hole collared 10m to grid north of PLS13-051. A 0.1m wide interval of Devonian sandstone (52.6m - 52.7m) overlies basement quartzitic gneiss, and an intercalated sequence of pelitic and semipelitic gneiss. Two narrow weakly mineralized intervals were recorded between 90.0m - 96.0m. A 29.0m wide zone of weak to locally strongly radioactive mineralization (108.5m - 137.5m) was intersected in a dominantly pelitic gneiss unit. One narrow interval (0.34m) of off-scale radioactivity was intersected (131.5m - 131.84m). Moderate to strong clay alteration is prevalent from 100.4m - 162.8m.
Line 375E
Hole PLS13-062 was a vertical hole collared 10m grid north of PLS13-053. A 1.4m wide interval of Devonian sandstone (50.3m - 51.7m) overlies the basement pelitic gneiss. A 4.5m wide weak to strongly mineralized interval (51.0m - 55.5m) with 0.12m of off-scale (>9999 cps) radioactivity penetrates into the overlying sandstone and continues into the basement pelitic unit. A 14.0m wide lower zone (85.0m - 99.0m) of weak to moderate radioactive mineralization occurs within a clay and hematite altered graphitic pelitic gneiss.
Hole Summary
Natural gamma radiation in drill core that is reported in this news release was measured in counts per second (cps) using a hand held Exploranium GR-110G total count gamma-ray scintillometer. Borehole radioactivity is measured downhole using a Mount Sopris 2GHF-1000 Triple Gamma probe. The reader is cautioned that scintillometer readings are not directly or uniformly related to uranium grades of the rock sample measured, and should be used only as a preliminary indication of the presence of radioactive materials. The degree of radioactivity within the mineralized intervals is highly variable and associated with visible pitchblende mineralization. All intersections are down-hole, core interval measurements and true thickness are yet to be determined.
All holes are planned to be radiometrically surveyed using a Mount Sopris 2GHF-1000 Triple Gamma probe, which allows for accurate measurements in high grade mineralized zones. The Triple Gamma probe is preferred in zones of high grade mineralization.
Split core samples from the mineralized section of core will be taken continuously through the mineralized intervals and submitted to SRC Geoanalytical Laboratories (an SCC ISO/IEC 17025: 2005 Accredited Facility) of Saskatoon for analysis, which includes U3O8 (wt %) and fire assay for gold. All samples sent for analysis will include a 63 element ICP-OES, uranium by fluorimetry and boron. Assay results will be released when received.

A secure portal allowing our customers and vendors 24/7 access to their operational and financial information.
Over the 3 days MSC welcomed a total of over 350 visitors to the lounge each day and averaged around 40 daily meetings. MSC counted 88 colleagues to the booth from 26 countries, making the event a truly international occasion for meeting with specialist shippers of perishable goods. It was not only the warm welcome from MSC booth staff that attracted visitors but also the very special Mediterranean hospitality, which as we all know is what MSC is famous for. Visitors told us that they especially appreciated the quality and scope of the meetings with both POL and POD agents combined. For more intensive business discussions and fast decisions several clients had access to senior managers from MSC's Geneva HQ
"Fruit Logistica is one of the most important dates in our commercial calendar and 2015 was no exception," says Nils Kahn, CCO of MSC Germany "The quality and quantity of visitors was outstanding and, once again, we were able to renew contact with longstanding customers of perishable goods as well as build new business opportunities for the future".
More than 50 representatives from Global Compact Network Switzerland (GCNS) were present at MSC's Geneva headquarters.
The final countdown to the Africa CEO Forum is under way. On Monday, MSC's President and CEO, Diego Aponte, will participate as a speaker at the event.
Freight professionals are counting down to this year's Multimodal event, which takes place in Birmingham early in April. MSC is looking forward to attending.

By Brad Locke/NEMS Daily Journal
HOOVER, Ala. – As Tuesday dragged on into Wednesday and the zeros kept going up on the scoreboard, Mississippi State's dugout remained largely tension-free.
The Bulldogs were engaged in what turned out to be an epic 17-inning game against Missouri in the first round of the SEC Tournament.
It finally ended at 12:24 a.m. – four hours, 39 minutes after it began – when catcher Mitch Slauter lofted an RBI single to center field with two outs for a 2-1 MSU victory.
The dugout erupted much the way it had a year earlier when the Bulldogs won the SEC Tournament title, with the players spilling onto the field and mobbing Slauter. They didn't take joy only in the victory, because they were clearly enjoying themselves in the dugout during the game.
MSU missed several opportunities offensively earlier in the game to salt away victory, but the failures did not dampen the enthusiasm on the bench.
"We went back and did our pregame chant in … it was the 14th or 15th," Slauter said. "We were just doing anything we could to try and spark something to score that run."
Staying loose
The Bulldogs try all sorts of things in the dugout. There are the rally caps, which for most players are MSU's green St. Patrick's Day caps. Sometimes, in the ninth inning especially, players will mill around the dugout in a semi-organized fashion in what they call the "walk-off walk."
There's always plenty of yelling and encouraging, and the mood is generally light. Even pitcher Will Cox – who got the win Tuesday in relief and, like most pitchers, crawls into a cocoon after coming off the mound – is able to enjoy the atmosphere.
"We have so much fun in the dugout, and we stay loose, and we're able to win ballgames," Cox said.
Is there a correlation between MSU being loose in the dugout and winning games? Well, against Ole Miss a couple of weekends ago, State came from six runs down to win. Then it overcame a three-run deficit to beat South Carolina last weekend.
MSU had two walk-off, extra-inning wins against Alabama earlier this season. It trailed Missouri and its ace, Rob Zastryzny, 1-0 early in Tuesday's game.
This group is not easily fazed.
"We stay in it," Cox said. "It doesn't matter if it's the 27th inning, we're still going to be doing some rat tails or some hat-stacking thing over here, keeping it loose, keeping it fun, and rallying to win."

12th Planet Interview
Electronica superstar Skrillex owes a certain debt to John Dadzie.
You were one of the earliest adopters of dubstep in the U.S., correct?
Yeah, totally. There were those guys that came before me, like Joe Nice and Dave Q over in New York and Baltimore. Those guys were already like established in the scene, but I think I got to play a lot of the markets that dubstep was never in. Going to like Boise, Oklahoma, and Little Rock. I think I was one of the first people to go to those places and play dubstep like four five years ago.
When was the first time you've played Phoenix?
I think my first gig in Phoenix under the name 12th Planet was at this place with a gay bar on the bottom and an upstairs lounge on the second floor.
You mean Homme Lounge with cats like Ultrablack?
Yeah. That was in like 2007. That was before they even called themselves Ultrablack. I knew Sluggo [Nick Suddarth] and Adroit [Bryan Marek] from doing drum 'n' bass stuff before. It was setup by their friend Cruz, who was definitely one of the first person to start booking dubstep stuff out there. And then Frank Mendez started doing some dubstep shows on this patio of this place he worked at, and from there, it helped lead to where it is now.
What was your first reaction to dubstep?
It reminded me a lot of drum 'n' bass. Before I did dubstep I was producing and touring as a drum 'n' bass artist. When I went to England, I always noticed there was this second room with some weird music, and there were guys like Slaughter Mob and Skream and Zed Bias making it. I didn't think it was gonna sound like it does today. It was like a fresh take. I was getting over drum 'n' bass at the time because it didn't really evolve. There was this certain point, around like 2006 or 2007 that nothing really sounded different. It was like the same records were being made over and over and over. No one was really pushing the envelope forward.
When did you become a dubstep convert?
After the Dubstep Warz mix that Mary Anne Hobbs did with like Mala, Skream, Benga, Hatcha and all these names that are pivotal to what dubstep sounds like now was all on one mix. Then it all started to make sense. It really hooked me and I started working on the music. I met up with my partner Drew Best [of L.A.'s influential SMOG night] and he was starting to throw dubstep shows. He was gonna do his first show and he asked me if I wanted to play, but I had to go on tour in Germany. So I recommended guys like Nick Argon and Matty G, and the rest is history.
Dubstep has been constantly evolving since its early days in both the U.S. and U.K.?
Once it got popular around the world, everyone's had their own take on it. A lot of it has to do with producers getting over making drum 'n' bass and took their experience into dubstep, which caused everyone to step their game up. It wasn't just a minimal sound anymore, it was a maximum effort. To make a dubstep song now you have to spend some time on the craft. A lot new techniques have been learned since then.

MBC's new weekend drama AIR CITY promised a lot — being the return vehicles for big-time stars Lee Jung Jae and Choi Jiwoo — and its first episodes turned out to deliver. The series is laden with star power, and it looks spectacular. MBC really sank a ton of money into this production, and you can tell.
You know what Air City is? It's like really yummy dessert that you can almost convince yourself is a decent meal, because maybe it's got fruit in it. It's fun, it's fast, and it's got a good balance of action, thrills, stunts, mixed in with some humor and hints of romance to come.
Plus, it's also got just the slightest hint of a cheese factor to keep it from taking itself too seriously, and keep it entertaining.
(Soundtrack) SONG OF THE DAY
Air City OST – "하루달" (haru dal) by Dong Bang Shin Ki
[ zShare download ]
In the darkened streets of Hong Kong, one black-suited guy is being chased (and shot at) by another black-suited guy. Running behind them is our hero, Kim Ji Sung (Lee Jung Jae!!), who's too late to save his friend from being killed. He finds his friend's body — noting a particular pendant clutched in his bloodied hand — and takes off after his killer, but to no avail.
On a plane heading to Korea's Incheon International Airport, Ji Sung scrutinizes the passengers, noting one mean-looking dude in particular, whose passport he swipes surreptitiously while the guy's in the lavatory. Ji Sung inspects it, while the guy swallows some pills, emerges from the lavatory, and collapses. Also on the flight is Han Do Kyung (Choi Ji Woo), whose brief flirting with another passenger is cut short as everyone looks at the collapsed passenger.
Responding to the emergency on the Incheon Airport side is Kang Ha Joon (Lee Jin Wook), the manager of airport administration who monitors suspicious activities from the "situation room" and its hundreds of security cameras.
Do Kyung attempts to pass herself off as the man's fiancee to accompany him, but Ha Joon stops her — it's clear Ha Joon doesn't buy her story. Ji Sung silently watches with suspicion, keeping a close eye on Do Kyung. He also clocks three questionable Chinese travelers and follows them to the airport hotel, where Do Kyung is also checking in.
She checks into three separate rooms, all for her own use. Her peculiar behavior arouses curiosity among the airport staff, who take bets on who she could be — a spy? an employee appointed from the top? When she leaves her room, Ji Sung sneaks in using some kind of magnetic override keycard, and rifles through her belongings.
In the airport cafe, Do Kyung witnesses a strange briefcase exchange, and her Spidey sense tells her something's wrong. She follows them into the terminal — and Ji Sung, who's been secretly watching, follows her out.
However, their behavior has triggered the notice of security, and they're arrested and brought in for questioning (Do Kyung accuses Ji Sung of being the culprit, and is surprised when she's brought in as well).
Ji Sung is not too happy with her for mistaking him for a criminal, and she's surprised that he knows who she is.
Ji Sung is taken to the head of security (NIS, or National Intelligence Service), where we find out he's a government agent who's technically taking a leave of duty. Initially stationed in Cairo, Ji Sung followed his friend's killer from Hong Kong to Korea, although it's not his assignment. The chief orders him back to his post, but Ji Sung is determined to get to the bottom of his friend's death. The news is reporting it as an uneventful tourist death, and Ji Sung feels the indignity of his friend not being recognized for his service.
Ji Sung outlines his theory and tells the chief that the three Chinese tourists at the hotel are definitely involved. Ji Sung insists that even if the NIS doesn't help him, he'll do it alone. The chief tells him if he's not gone by tomorrow morning, he'll report him for violating orders.
(They made such a good choice with Lee Jung Jae here; he's really good. You can see immediately that he's a star, a big-time actor with tons of experience. He commits to this role in a way that you don't usually see in kdramas — adding to the feel that Air City is a series on the scale of a movie. I love him.)
Do Kyung is introduced as the new head of operations, who's been scouted particularly from Singapore, becoming the source of gossip among the airport employees. She and Ha Joon don't exactly hit it off.
Ha Joon, on the other hand, knows everyone who works at the airport and gets along with them like family, from the upper-most tier down to the cleaning ladies and runway repairmen. The airport is his turf, and it's clear he'd rather be there than anywhere, since he never leaves.
Do Kyung sees security footage of Ji Sung entering her room, and visits his room in a burst of indignity to demand what he's up to. Ji Sung asks for her help, and they spend the night monitoring the Chinese trio, getting enough info to deduce that they're planning a drop (exchange) in the bar.
With help from security agents, they intercept the exchange, but Ji Sung is confused to see only money and passports. It's not what he was looking for. An idea occurs to him, and he goes off running for the medical ward…
…where the badass mofo guy has obviously taken the Romeo & Juliet Pills of Fake Doom, because he AWAKENS! He gets up without any difficulty and walks out, before Ji Sung and Do Kyung can arrive to stop him.
Knowing the escapee must still be in the airport somewhere, military teams are brought in and security is on high alert.
Spotting a suspicious man dressed as a maintenance worker, Ji Sung and Ha Joon take off after him, first via car chase on the airport runway, then through the inner chambers of the luggage belts and warehouses.
Ji Sung manages the capture the guy, but unfortunately he's not talking. Without any additional proof, there's nothing they can do but let him go, to Ji Sung's frustration.
However, his troubles aren't over, as he's reprimanded (first by the head of intelligence, then by his supervisor at the NIS) for his reckless behavior — insubordination, violating procedures, endangering others.
He visits his dead friend Young Jae's wife (mother?), who's not only grieving for the loss but upset because nobody will tell her anything. Ji Sung sits by in frustration because he cannot divulge that Young Jae died in duty, rather than as the everyday target of robbery in a cover story that makes no sense to his family.
Ha Joon has been trying to figure out why Do Kyung looks so familiar, and asks about her past, wondering if they used to know each other. Do Kyung brushes him off, but the name of a school triggers something in her memory, and as she looks through her old things, she recalls they went to the same grade school. She tells him she's Yi Kyung's older sister. And immediately, they drop formalities and speak in banmal (informal speech) like old friends.
She asks him to take her someplace, where she talks to a woman who clearly has no affection for her. The woman calls her cold-hearted and hard for cutting off contact with her mother and sister. Do Kyung asks her to pass along her contact information to her sister, although the woman tells her there's no way Yi Kyung will call her. She's even more offended to hear that Do Kyung works at the airport, which apparently carries some cruel meaning that we can only guess at. Do Kyung left Korea when she was young to live with her father in France, and Yi Kyung refused to leave the airport, crying for hours.
Although she doesn't divulge the source of all this family angst, Do Kyung tells Ha Joon that if she were her sister, she wouldn't contact her either.
Meanwhile, Ji Sung drives to the home of a woman we can assume is his old lover, remembering happier times together. He doesn't approach her, however, although she notices him drive away and possibly recognizes him.
Ji Sung's given the order that he's not being sent back to Cairo. If he's so determined to get to the bottom of Young Jae's death, he'll be stationed at the aiport to monitor, waiting for the culprits to pass through.
So Ji Sung finds himself back at Incheon International…….

Earlier this month I posted a story about Born Fighting: How the Scots Irish Shaped America. Since Nutfield was founded in 1718 by the Ulster Scots Presbyterians, I knew that this documentary from the UK would be of great interest in the United States. It is based on the book by the same name written by Virginia Senator James Webb.
On Senator Webb's website a media alert was published stating that the documentary will air on the Smithsonian Channel on Sunday, April 10, 2011 at 8PM Eastern Time. It will be a two hour program – the same on that aired in the UK in the beginning of February.
You can read the press release at http://jameswebb.com/articles/documentary.html

Max Payne 3 has been delayed and "is now planned for release during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2010". It was originally due winter 2009 (i.e. now) but was then delayed to the first quarter of fiscal 2010 but now Take Two has announced that it been pushed back even further. As a big fan of the series I am only to happy to wait for this to be fine tuned and released when it is ready instead of being rushed out. In the meantime we can look forward to other Take Two releases such as Red Dead Redemption and BioShock 2.

Comments about AVENUE Jacquard Drape Front Cardigan:
This is another great black/white sweater. Not too bulky, I did accidently get a smaller size than ordered but it worked out ok so it may run a little large. Awesome piece for work or just running out for a light sweater as a coat. The collar does like to curl a little and may be annoying to some.

… Is it really a crowd? Your favorite newspaper, TV station or website will let you know.
Friday afternoon, hundreds of thousands of Americans gathered for the annual March for Life, protesting yet again the 1973 Roe vs. Wade decision legalizing abortion. At the time, abortion-rights advocates figured that was the last word on a matter that had been contentious for a number of years. They were wrong.
My own views on abortion are instructive. On most political issues, I've followed the path of Winston Churchill, who once said (paraphrasing here) that anyone who is not a liberal when he's young has no heart, while anyone who's not a conservative when he's old has no brain. Many years ago, I was almost a Democrat. I agreed with most Democratic policies, but couldn't surmount the abortion-on-demand hurdle. I knew some women would have abortions whether it was legal or not, but just didn't think this was something society should endorse. I think events have proved I was right about that. As a result, I never drifted fully into the Democratic camp and found it easy to slide right as the years passed.
No, I've never attended a March for Life. But here's a thought experiment for you. If half a million people or so (the last projection I heard for this year's March for Life participation) showed up in Washington, D.C., to protest, say, guns or global warming, how much publicity would they get? Then see how much text and footage the Life marchers get. Then you'll have your answer about media bias.

BMW 7 Series: A Slimmer Bimmer
When BMW (BMWG) unveiled the 2002 7 Series sedan at the Frankfurt Motor Show on Sept. 11, 2001, the buzz in the hall, not yet steam-rolled by the terrorist attacks in the U.S., was all about the new Bimmer with what would become known as the "Bangle butt."
That wasn't a reference to the derrière of the bespectacled, 51-year-old Wisconsin-born, California-educated chief designer at BMW, Chris Bangle, who was responsible for the styling of BMW's flagship sedan, but rather the ungainly trunk that seemed at first glance to be so disconnected from the car as to be bolted on from another sedan. The four taillights, too, were bashed for a busy, ungainly look. One European auto industry critic memorably proclaimed that it looked like a dining room table had been dropped on the rear of the vaunted 7 Series.
Maybe Paris will be luckier for BMW than Frankfurt. In early October, BMW will unveil to the public an all-new flagship, designed under the direct supervision of BMW brand design chief Adrian Van Hooydonk, though Bangle remains chief designer over all BMW brands: BMW, MINI, and Rolls-Royce.
Plenty of Gripes
The "Bangle butt," which seems to have been emulated by Mercedes-Benz (DAI) in its S-Class (BusinessWeek.com, 5/10/06) and Toyota (TM) in its current-generation Camry (BusinessWeek.com, 8/15/08), is noticeably gone. Also substantially made over is the much criticized iDrive electronics controller in the center of the front-seat console. The initial complexity of the iDrive was lambasted by American journalists who thought it counterintuitive. Online gripers dubbed it the "Why Drive." European critics had fewer gripes with the iDrive and more with the "Bangle butt."
Despite launching the new 7 Series, which will probably be priced between $80,000 to more than $130,000, into the teeth of an economic slowdown in the U.S., BMW North America President James O'Donnell says he believes it is a very good time to launch. "We will have the newest entry in the category, and when things are tough, customers are drawn to the newest designs," says O'Donnell, who took over in April and is also now chairman of the BMW holding company that is responsible for the company's North, Central, and South American operations.
O'Donnell was in St. Louis last week, hosting the BMW Championship, an annual golf tournament that is part of the FedEx Cup competition. Inside the 16th-hole BMW Owners' Pavilion at the Bellerive Country Club, the new 7 Series was crammed into a special room barely big enough to hold the sedan and a few visitors at a time. Dealers, high-roller customers, and a few media people were the first to see the car in the sheet metal.
Two design elements hit the eye right off the bat. First, the proportions of the new Seven. The roofline and hood are both lower. This allowed BMW designers to achieve the classic "pouncing cat" profile and proportions visible from the side view—for which BMW is famous, but which was lost a bit in the 2002 7 Series. The second most obvious element is a hard crease, like the crease in a pair of expensive trousers, that begins at the headlamp, follows down the side of the car, flows perfectly through the door handles, and through the fuel cap on one side of the car, and finishes in the taillights. The rear of the car, so much a part of the Seven's discussion seven years ago, is so well integrated into the rest of the car that it is only worth talking about as a foil to the old car. The front-end sports two character lines on either side of "the power dome" over the engine, culminating in a nose that Bangle calls "sharky."
Perfect Harmony
Bangle, while making no apologies for a car that earned a spot on Time magazine's "50 Worst Cars of All Time," nevertheless told BusinessWeek.com that the company's engineering and design departments are much more integrated today than they were in the late 1990s, when the current Seven was designed. "The engineers did a super job of giving us the backbone of mechanical componentry and physical dimensions to work with so the designers could really achieve that sense of perfect harmony."
Indeed, the 2002 Seven presented several problems for designers they didn't face this time. The car housed a new engine that required a hood about 5cm higher than what designers felt was optimum. The overall car was larger, with around 30% more sheet-metal surface on the sides of the car. And the rear of the car had to be kept short, yet it was decided that the opening had to be larger and much easier for drivers to get items like golf bags in and out. Auto industry analyst James Hall of Detroit-based 2953 Analytics says the exaggerated trunk lid on the old 7 Series was necessary to stabilize the car, both in terms of keeping the rear of the car planted firmly on the pavement at high speeds, as well as laterally. "It wasn't ideal, but very necessary," says Hall. About the new Seven, Halls says, "It's a very nice piece of work in every way."
Bangle says that BMW engineers and designers worked separately on the old car. Engine designers were not oriented to think in terms of how the size or configuration of the engine would affect the designer's job. "The engineers this time really came toward us to establish much more favorable proportions.…In the 1990s they were just doing everything they could to solve the problems [of engine power, fuel economy, packaging, safety, etc]."
Bangle is emphatic in saying that he isn't passing the buck or apologizing for the old Seven. "We had a set of problems to solve, and we have seen that other companies have solved them pretty much the same way."
Shifting the Shifter
Besides the rearview, the other big criticism of the old Seven was the iDrive, a mouse-like controller in the console that controlled some 700 functions for the telephone, entertainment, climate, and navigation systems. To make room, the gearshift was moved from the center to the steering column where a fragile feeling, and much disliked, electronic shifter took driver from Park to Drive. The new Seven moves the shifter back to the console, and puts a smaller, redesigned iDrive controller to the right of the shifter and provides shortcut buttons to frequently used functions. The system resembles the Audi system, which came after iDrive, but has been reviewed much more favorably. Indeed, the new iDrive 2.0 works far more intuitively. I found all the relevant controls almost instantly, and I hadn't used an iDrive in more than a year.
When BMW launched the iDrive, it was lambasted online just when blogs and Internet forums were cracking up and gathering steam as a force in the media (some 14,000 signed an online petition to have Bangle fired). The company was seeking to streamline the packaging of increasingly complex electronic controls. "We were out front and so we took more than our share of criticism from people who were unfamiliar and uncomfortable with something so new," says BMW North America marketing chief Jack Pitney.
The launch of the new Seven is a critical step for BMW as it seeks to boost sagging profit margins. Such cars attract well-heeled buyers who do not skimp on high-profit extras, quickly turning a car with a base price of around $80,000 to a living room and office on wheels for over $100,000.
O'Donnell and Bangle are quick to point out that the current Seven is the most successful Seven ever in terms of unit sales. Still, it has not kept pace with principal competitors. Sales of the current model, despite a 2005 "refresh" that tweaked the iDrive, dash controls, and taillights, never managed to overtake those of the market-leading Mercedes-Benz S-Class. In 2007, Mercedes-Benz sold 85,500 S-Class cars, compared with fewer than 50,000 Sevens.
It's hard to believe that this new Seven will receive anything like the volume of brickbats its predecessor took in 2001. In fact, the car's design seems to fit so well in a string of well-received vehicles like the latest 3 Series, 5 Series, and utility vehicles like the X5 (BusinessWeek.com, 4/27/07) and X6 that Bangle may risk some saying he is playing it too safe, compared with the edgy, avant-garde reputation he and the company have built up since the 2002 Seven appeared.

i would do this by proving the forward direction using the contrapositive, and the converse via a direct proof.
at some point in your text you should have it written that for every set . this should help you prove the converse directly.
for the forward direction, assume NOT or . then by DeMorgan's laws, we have that AND . now if both and are nonempty, what can you say about ?

It was Grand Theft Auto come to life: When an 11-year-old bought a video game Wednesday in Lake Charles, Louisiana, he opened the plastic case to find a bag of drugs.
NBC affiliate KPLC-TV reports that the boy's father returned to the store and called police. Det. Rebecca Reed with the Calcasieu Parish Sheriff's Office confirmed the substance was methamphetamine.
Joey Mooring is director of public relations for GameStop. Mooring told the TV station that the Grapevine, Texas-based company checks used games for quality when customers trade them in. He also says games are checked again before being shipped to another store. The Lake Charles store manager says employees there typically don't examine games received from elsewhere in the company.
Reed says GameStop told police it couldn't track the game's origin.

Posted January 21, 2014 · Report post So... I'm a teenager and I am 15 years old. I have acne problems and i had pimples since 2010. I visited a dermatologist and he gave me some antibiotics and some cremes to use but they made my skin worse. 2 months ago i started taking accutane (isotretinoin) with my doctors permission . I saw some of my friends who had really bad acne getting rid of their acne with the same antibiotics that i took and i got sad but i didn't let that take me down. Then at school I saw a lot of people with clean faces running in the dirt, touching their faces, sweating and didn't even care about their skin and i got pissed off since i wash my face twice a day never touch my ugly and full of pimples face. After these events suddenly a bully came out of nowhere and kept teasing me about my acne. Then the accutane side effects came: Dry skin,dry lips. bloody nose, joint pain. I looked really bad and neither moisturizer creams or lipsticks helped the situation.I was really sad about that. The only thing that I could rely on to stop (for a while at least) my depression was football. And then the joint pains got worse and worse. I got to the point to cry myself to sleep. What should I do? Whenever i go to the school's bathroom I get tears and sometimes say that i'm sick and go home and start sleeping so I could forget about my acne.Rarely i get suicidal thoughts but then I convince myself that there are people with bigger problems. What do you guys think I should do? Give me your opinion and please don't mention about 'natural remedies' and all these.Thank you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted January 22, 2014 · Report post Moved to the emo forum where I'm sure you will receive some supportive posts. After remaining clear for around 1.5 years following DKR (The Regimen), in March 2013 I decided to change to Epiduo. I use a pea size amount of epiduo each night, followed by a layer of topical antibiotic (Eryacne). I also apply Eryacne every morning and moisturise twice a day. After switching to Epiduo from the regimen I found that it took a good 3 months to get back to being perfectly clear again and now I might get one small pimple appear per month. I can live with that I started following Dan's Regimen in September 2011 after suffering with acne for 20 years or so. I followed the Regimen instructions exactly and became 100% clear within 9-11 weeks. In December 2011 and after being consistently clear for over a month, I started to slowly reduce the amount of BP I used until I was only applying BP at night. My skin still remained clear however I sometimes switched to applying BP twice a day for a few days (perhaps once a month) if I felt a few under skin bumps starting to come up. I used acne.org products (including AHA and jojoba oil) and sometimes cetaphil moisturiser at night if I felt my skin was especially dry. In the gallery I show my week by week progress following the regimen. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted February 12, 2014 · Report post Hey Ihateacne99, I noticed it has been a few weeks since your post. How are you doing? As a mum to a 15 yo son that also loves his footy [he plays Rugby League in Australia.. what footy do u play?] he is also suffering with severe acne, I don't have any treatment advise for you as i am here on the forum trying to gather information on that myself but i would advise you to read the my thread and its responses.. there is a wealth of information there. Have you told your parents/mum/teacher, someone that personally knows you and cares how you are feeling? are you still currently taking accutane? And remember Bully's usually have their own problems… they are the mean people they are because they are trying to cover up their own pain and sad lives .. don't let their criticism get to you… your better than that! Look forward to your reply Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted February 14, 2014 · Report post Hang in there! Your face will clear up with time, the teen years are filled with skin problems because of hormones. Staying positive and surrounding yourself with activities and people that make you happy will help take your mind off of it. One thing I did was read inspiring books. I've spent hours reading books in the Self Improvement section as Barnes and Noble, as silly as that sounds it really helped me emotionally. Remind yourself that you are a great person and don't let your acne get the best of you or hold you back! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Common Fart is the fart heard most often. It is a very close relative of the "Ripper", but is released with less force. It is usually heard in groups where people aren't yet comfortable with farting amongst each other. Therefore, one person in the group gets up some nerve and releases this common-sounding fart in such a manner that everyone now feels comfortable with group flatulence.. Usually there is no smell with the Common Fart.
Click here to listen to the common fart sound
The Anxious Fart is let in a place where someone does not want the fart to be heard. You may have seen men and women in book stores or grocery stores, or even on the street, letting these farts. They are generally controlled, usually barely audible, and require much skill to master.
Click here to listen to the anxious fart sound
The Wet Fart is one that sounds quite juicy. Quite often this fart is cause for alarm, and an indication that a trip to the toilet is imminent.
Click here to listen to the wet fart sound
This fart is similar to the ripper, except it has a bit of a hollow, windy sound to it. This is due to farter blowing all the gas out quickly. This fart will almost always get a laugh.
Click here to listen to the blower fart sound
TIGHT BUN FART This fart is always recognizable. It sounds like the farter's buns were so tight that he/she was in pain while farting.

THE RIPPER One of the best farts around is The Ripper. It is loud, rough, and always raises an eyebrow or two. Characteristics of The Ripper often show up in other farts, but make no mistake - this fart is a single, powerful gas-bubble that comes screaming from the farter's butt.

I've had the RC car for a few years, I played with a little, then stored it in the garage. Recently i've gotten back into it.
I'm tired of pull starting my nitro car, it's always had problems. It use to be that parts were breaking left and right.(got those all fixed now)
I've been watching electric RC cars, with 2s lipo batteries, and a few with 3s lipos...
The 2s lipos look fast, but If my car can handle 3s lipo then I'd like to go with 3s.
How hard would it be to hook up an electric motor to drive train?
Will it work with the existing tranny?
Also will parts from the tornado epx pro work?
Any help would be appreciated.

Soon it will probably be illegal to clone human embryos–whether to make babies or simply for medical research some scientists believe could be life saving. The House of Representatives passed a bill yesterday that would ban all human cloning and would prohibit doctors from importing any therapies created by using cloned human embryos.
President Bush has already thrown his support behind the complete ban. If the bill makes it through the Senate–which seems increasingly likely–it could push researchers out of the U.S. entirely. Almost no one supports using the technology to make babies. But some scientists fiercely defend therapeutic cloning, a kind of stem-cell therapy that would treat patients with cells genetically identical to their own.
"I expected more than a rushed two-hour debate," says
Stem cells derived from human embryos can be coaxed to become any kind of human tissue–a property that in theory would allow doctors to replace damaged parts of the brain, liver, pancreas or heart as one would replace parts in a car. But a patient's immune system might attack these cells if they are genetically different from his or her own.
Therapeutic cloning, however, provides a potential solution: An embryo would be cloned from one of the patient's own cells and then destroyed when it's a few days old to produce stem cells. These cells could be chemically guided to produce whatever bits of tissue needed replacement–insulin-producing cells for diabetics, specialized neurons for Parkinson's disease, heart tissue.
Advanced Cell Technology is not alone in working with this technology.
Therapeutic cloning research is allowed on a limited basis elsewhere in the world, including England. So if the Senate passes the bill, many researchers and companies may just pack up and leave.
"Even if our country banned cloning human embryos, other regions of the world will allow its continuance," says BioTransplant CEO
In the end, the House found the idea of researchers fleeing the United States less frightening than cloning embryos for research purposes. That fear was apparently enhanced by the fact that the embryos must be destroyed to create stem cells.
"Human beings should not be cloned to stock a medical junkyard of spare parts for experimentation," House Majority Whip
Lawmakers voted 265-to-162 to ban all cloning–after voting down 249-to-178 not to allow an amendment to the bill that would have allowed embryos to be cloned for a type of stem-cell research.
Scientists who believe that days-old embryos are not yet people have defended the therapy.
For Geron and Biotransplant, keeping operations outside the United States will be relatively easy. Geron got its cloning technology by buying
Advanced Cell Technology might find a move a bit harder–it does not have well-established operations outside the U.S. But CEO West says he has no plans to leave the States just yet: "I trust the Senate to do the right thing," West says.

This study is being performed to reduce unwanted abdominal fat using two different applicators for the Zeltiq System.
Condition | Intervention |
Fat Reduction in the Abdomen |
Device: The Zeltiq System |
Study Type: | Interventional |
Study Design: | Allocation: Non-Randomized Intervention Model: Single Group Assignment Masking: Open Label |
Official Title: | Non-Invasive Reduction of Abdominal Fat Utilizing the CoolFlex and eZ App 6.3 Applicators |
Further study details as provided by Zeltiq Aesthetics:
Primary Outcome Measures:
- Independent imaging review [ Time Frame: 16 weeks ]The primary effectiveness endpoint is the percent of reviews by the reviewers which either identify no clinically significant difference in fat reduction between the two sides of the abdomen, or identify greater fat reduction on the side of the abdomen treated with the CoolFlex applicator at 8 weeks post-treatment. It is expected that the percentage of reviews identifying no clinically significant difference between the two sides of the abdomen or identifying greater fat reduction on the side of the abdomen treated with the CoolFlex applicator at 8 weeks post-treatment will be at least 75%.
Secondary Outcome Measures:
- Overall reduction [ Time Frame: 16 weeks ]Overall reduction in the fat layer thickness on each side of the abdomen, as demonstrated by comparison of pre-treatment and 8- and 16-week post-treatment ultrasound measurements, for all evaluable subjects (i.e., adequate ultrasound imaging data sets).
- Subject satisfaction [ Time Frame: 16 weeks ]Subject satisfaction with the Zeltiq procedure as determined by the results of a subject satisfaction questionnaire at the 8- and 16-week follow-up visits.
