INGOLSTADT, GERMANY – The next Audi S5 will have a V-6 instead of a V-8 engine when it comes out in 2009. The S5 will get the new 329-horsepower supercharged V-6 engine that is on call to replace the age-old 4.2L V-8. The V-8 was used in the previous S4 as well other high-line Audi models, according to www.edmunds.com.
The next Audi S6 will swap its V-10 for an updated twin-turbocharged version of the 4.2L V-8. Audi will likely make the same move for the S8, leaving the V-10 biturbo version to the higher-performance R8 coming next year — and to the racing R8 GT being worked over by Audi racing guru Abt Sportsline.
Within two years, the V-6 turbo will also go into the much-talked-about R4 midengine two-seater. The base R8 will stick with the updated V-8 to be seen in the next S6. As for the R8 V-12 TDI, it should go into production pretty much as IL drove it in prototype form early this year, according to www.edmunds.com.

Everton face a volatile tie with Dynamo Kiev in the Europa League final 16.
Everton are the last remaining British hope left in the UEFA Europa League this season, after they romped to a 7-2 aggregate victory over Swiss side Young Boys.
Tottenham, Celtic and rivals Liverpool all crashed out on the same night so Everton now carry the flag.
They could not have asked for a more hostile place to carry it.
Everton have been drawn against Dynamo Kiev in the last 16, with the first leg at Goodison Park and the second in the Ukrainian capital.
Dynamo have always had some of the most passionate fans in Europe, but at the moment that passion has seen some ugly scenes. In last night's win against Guingamp Kiev fans rioted among themselves and the game was suspended for 15 minutes.
So it will be an away trip not for the faint hearted Evertonian.
But in terms of teams they could have faced this is a favourable draw for Everton.
They avoided the likes of Zenit, Roma, Fiorentina, Sevilla, Villarreal, Napoli and Wolfsburg, who they have already polished off home and away this season, all of which are tougher opponents than Dynamo Kiev.
So what do Everton fans think of the draw?
A mix really. Some think it is tough, others easy, whilst others are concerned about safety for the second leg in war torn Ukraine.
But overall most Toffee fans know that if Everton play their best football, they should win the tie and progress to the final eight.
Everton Vs Dynamo Kiev That'll be easy Last 8 for us— Fraser McNeill (@McNeillFraser) February 27, 2015
Decent draw for everton getting dynamo— Connor Durband (@ConnorDurband) February 27, 2015
So Everton draws Dynamo who just attacked an away team's fans in their stadium and the country is in the middle of a war. Sounds promising— Joe Orr (@jorr54) February 27, 2015
Dynamo Kiev, I'll take that but I can't see too many Everton fans making their way over there!— Keith Mills (@KeithM) February 27, 2015
Dynamo Kiev in the last 16, as good a draw as i could hope for tbh, COYB!! @Everton— Josh Sheppardinho (@Sheppardinho2) February 27, 2015
The way we've been travelling in Europe, we really should be getting past Dynamo. #Everton #UELDraw— Joel Fruci (@JoelFruch) February 27, 2015
Great result for @Everton last night, roll on Dynamo Kiev!— Adam Roberts (@ADZzzRoberts) February 27, 2015
Hmmm Dynamo Kiev. That's gonna be a tough one @Everton #COYB.— Steve Holmes (@CyclingOfficer) February 27, 2015
Difficult fixture against Dynamo Kiev in the next round of the UEFA Europa League for @Everton. #COYB!!!— Dan (@Dan_Dickenson) February 27, 2015
Everton vs Dynamo Kiev not a bad draw #EFC #COYB— Adam Merritt (@AdamMezz) February 27, 2015

Floss Gloss sent me this awesome new color, Smoke on the Nail, and what better way to do some nail art with it than get inspired by the polish name?ĀSmoke on the Nail is a deep plum (inspired by Deep Purple)! I really love Floss Gloss because their colors areĀsoĀunique and are always different from anything else I own…not to mention the super cool looking bottles.
For the smoke, it took a little bit of experimenting for me to get it just right. I began using a watercolor technique with white nail polish but I couldn't get it exactly how I wanted. I switched to acrylic paint which made a huge difference!
Another trick to make it more "smoky" is immediately put top coat on the nail before it dries completely…it will slightly smear the acrylic paint.

The Call of Duty series is primarily developed by just a few development teams. Chief amongst them are Infinity Ward, Sledgehammer Games and Treyarch. They typically take turns releasing their games with the assistance of a few other development squads interspersed. Infinity Ward released 2013's Call of Duty: Ghosts, Sledgehammer Games handled 2014's Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare, and the latest game in the series, Call of Duty: Black Ops III, was developed by Treyarch. Next up is Infinity Ward again, which makes today's news leak of the next entry's title all the sweeter. Activision and Infinity Ward plan to present to us: Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare.
Yes, someone being paid a great deal of money decided that a Infinity Ward developed game should be entitled Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare. But I digress, onto actual news. Jim Sterling posted onto Twitter today that a retailer source confirmed it was just a matter of days until the next Call of Duty entry would be fully revealed:
Then on Reddit a user posted a screen grab that they were able to pull from the PlayStation Store in the UK:
It could easily be faked, and it certainly isn't there now, but where there's smoke there is typically fire. Unless you're trying to figure out what the hell the Nintendo NX controller looks like… Anyway, we should have more concrete details in just a matter of days as to what the next Call of Duty title is. But as of now, we're going to assume that it's Call of Duty: Infinite War and whatever that means to the franchise. I'm just really hoping for the cross-promotion with Disney that allows access to the Buzz Lightyear skin and karate chop. Keep your fingers crossed.

…Was the conclusion Karen came to as this week's Toastmaster. She took the original ambiguous theme "Would you rather" and gave it her own twist, focusing on the big top, obviously! Throughout the meeting she provided more information about the history of origins of the circus than I thought possible. This included the use and treatment of elephants and the invention of 'fairy-floss'—err, cotton candy.
And like a circus, today's meeting was a little chaotic, as only three of us were there to fill our roles today. Everyone else had to perform multiple roles on the spot! There was a lot of role-juggling, and a special mention goes out to Jessica. She managed to acrobatically handle… I don't know—5 roles(?) all in one meeting, and did a fantastic job!
This week's 'Word of the Day,' extravagant, was provided by Grammarian Scott, which was well suited to the circus theme. Jeff's 'Thought of the Day' goes as follows:
Savor what we have today, because that's what we have today. Tomorrow's going to come no matter what… So look forward to and embrace what is coming forward, because there's not much we can do about it.
We also had a special guest appearance from new 'Area Governor' Max Lopez, whose duties at Toastmasters is to 'visit all the local chapters and take notes,' as former Area Governor Jeff put it. Both Max and Jeff delivered superb impromptu speeches. Jeff took the stage first, using Eric's setup question to launch into a speech about commercial real estate, offering advice about investing in the purchasing and trading of businesses.
Next Max took the spotlight, and gave an inspiring speech which talked about how his boss's suggestion led him to Toastmasters, that he used to have a stutter, and what it was like as he fought through and overcame it. It is worth noting that he never stuttered during this speech and, as Jessica (his evaluator) noted, nobody would have known that he ever had a stuttering issue.
I can't imagine how much more intense the difficulty of public speaking would have been for me to have the added encumbrance of a stammer. I can't confidently say I could see myself doing it, but he did. Not only did he overcome that obstacle, he's picked up some notable speaking accomplishments along the way. Good for you, Max.
'Would You Rather' TABLE TOPICS:
Eric, though hard-pressed to decide, would ultimately rather lose every debate but be right, rather than win every argument and be wrong, chiefly due to his opposition to presenting misinformation. Kayla knew the clear choice was to blather like Yoda rather than breathe like Darth Vader, and 'work she would to her advantage of it she'd make.' Craig argued that rather than live in a world of complete security at the cost of freedom, or vice versa, he'd prefer to live in an America overseen by a benevolent dictator that ensured security but gave some freedoms. Super competitive Jessica told us she'd rather go onto a game show over a reality series, and would meticulously destroy her opposition. Ryan told us that when he finds a lion in his room, he'd pass by the banjo, whip, and barstool, and blind it into submission with a laser-pointer, then make his getaway.
Craig served as evaluator for Jeff, crediting him for his 'Gift of Gab' skills. Next Jessica evaluated Max, giving praise for immediately changing the energy and 'warmed up the room.' General Evaluator Eric explained how the agenda assignment works (in reply to Scott's query), and commended Jessica's point about avoiding the use of jargon acronyms.
- Best Speaker Awarded to Max Lopez.
- Best Evaluator Awarded to Jessica Zahnow.
- Best Table Topics Awarded to Eric Williams.

Release Details
WASHINGTON, D.C. – The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) Chairman Inez Tenenbaum announced today that Matt Howsare is leaving his position as Chief of Staff and Chief Counsel to the Chairman to return to private practice. Chairman Tenenbaum also announced that effective May 29, 2013, current Deputy Chief of Staff and Senior Counsel to the Chairman Elliot Kaye will succeed Mr. Howsare as Chief of Staff and Chief Counsel.
As a principal legal and policy advisor to the Chairman from the beginning of her tenure at CPSC, Mr. Howsare was instrumental in establishing a modern agenda and global vision for the agency. He had an executive role in implementing the Chairman's product safety priorities, developing the agency's regulatory agenda, and working with key agency stakeholders to advance consumer safety. He traveled across the United States, Canada, Europe, and China assisting the Chairman and CPSC staff in forging successful domestic and international regulatory partnerships and promoting awareness of U.S. product safety requirements among domestic and international manufacturers, retailers, importers, testing labs, and trade associations.
Mr. Howsare played a leadership role in the implementation of the rules, regulations, and policies relating to the Consumer Product Safety Improvement Act of 2008, landmark legislation that revitalized the CPSC. He provided legal and policy counsel to the Chairman on the implementation of third-party testing of children's products; the new civil penalty rules; the creation of the SaferProducts.gov public database; the new limits on lead and phthalates; the requirements for certificates of compliance and laboratory accreditation; the new standards for durable infant nursery products; high profile compliance and enforcement actions; and many other significant agency milestones.
"From the moment of my confirmation and throughout my tenure as Chairman, Matt has been my most trusted counsel and confidant," said CPSC Chairman Inez Tenenbaum. "Matt has been steadfast in his commitment to helping me lead the agency and serve American consumers. Children and families are safer today and businesses around the world have a clearer understanding of the safety rules they must follow, thanks to Matt's tireless efforts."
Mr. Howsare will be returning to private practice as Counsel in the Washington, D.C. office of the law firm Mintz, Levin, Cohn, Ferris, Glovsky and Popeo, P.C.
Prior to joining CPSC, Mr. Howsare worked as an attorney at the law firm of Nelson, Mullins, Riley & Scarborough in Columbia, South Carolina, where he practiced in the area of consumer product safety, as well as general, appellate, class action and products liability litigation.

When you live on the Central Coast, you have to get used to many different weather seasons, all within a span of 20 minutes. Today, for example, the weather has been as cold as 30 degrees, and as warm as 70. The wind has blown and it has been silent. The rain has fallen and the sun has shone. There have been rainbows in the sky, as well as massive storm clouds on the horizon. There has been almost no humidity to speak of, followed by a veritable rainforest of moisture. And change is on the horizon, whatever that portends. The weather has been confusing.
Personally, I like my seasons to be separated. I like winter to be cold and crisp and full of snow and sharp - with mist from my breath. I like Spring to be warm, slightly rainy, and verdant with flowers and dewdrops. I like summer to be hot, very hot...hot enough to be warmed up by the cement after you take a dip in an icy cold mountain swimming pool. And, of course, Fall needs to have the tinge of finality to it. It needs to be the place where colors and year end resolutions make a harmonious pact with one another.
So, what am I getting at...
I believe that life has seasons as well. I also believe that when people mix up life's seasons, they generally become despondent. Spring is not the time to be contemplative. Winter is not the time for expansive dreams. Summer is a bad time to put on a parka of poetic solemnity. When we mix up the seasons of life, we often get confused.
What is a midlife crisis exactly? Well, what I have observed, from those who have sought my counsel on the matter, is that people who get confused about the seasons of life find themselves in the middle of crises - that is, a midlife crisis. So, when adults try to act like children, or teenagers, there is crisis. When 40 or 50 year olds, who are in the Fall season of their lives, try to relive moments of Spring, there is trouble.
Some have suggested that one of the key difficulties with living in California is that there aren't as many seasons as other places. Or rather, the seasons aren't as delineated and concrete. I have actually seen people in the middle of winter in Southern California, who are wearing flip flops and tank tops, with wide smiles on their faces, and perfect tans, say that they yearned for
"A space to go inwards, a time to be contemplative, a place to be introverted."
When I heard my friend say this, I wanted to just say, "You mean, you need winter!"
All for Now,

7.2 Upon receipt, the Buyer shall instantly inspect the goods for flawless condition, completeness and compliance with the contract. The Buyer shall perform a trial run to a reasonable extent.

If the Buyer's company has been certified according to DIN ISO 9000 and follow-up regulations, the extent of due care and diligence to be exerted by the Buyer in fulfillment of his duties to investigate and raise a complaint pursuant to § 377 Commercial Code even with regard to us shall depend on the content of his quality assurance regulations unless higher demands must be made in compliance with general commercial principles.
7.3 In the event of justified complaints, we shall have the right either to remedy the defect or to perform a substitute delivery at our discretion. Upon remedy of defect, we covenant to bear any and all cost and expenses required for the purpose of remedy of the defect and substitute delivery, in particular, transportation, labor and material cost to the extent that they will not increase due to the fact that the commodities were shipped to a place other than the place of delivery. Any other right of the Buyer for remedy is excluded unless we have maliciously concealed any defect or assumed a warranty.
7.4 If remedy or substitute delivery have turned out to be without success and if the complaints are not settled within another period of grace of two weeks to be notified in writing, the Buyer shall have the right either to demand reduction of the purchase price (abatement) or to terminate the contract at his own discretion. Ongoing claims, in particular, for compensation of damages in lieu of the performance are excluded unless they can be attributed to intent or gross negligence on our part or on the part of our subcontractors. The extent of liability will, at any rate, be limited to the damage foreseeable in terms of the normal course of affairs.
8 Compesation for Damages
As far as permitted by law, our duty to compensate for damages, for a legal reason whatsoever, is limited to the invoice value of the quantity of goods directly involved in the event causing the damage. This does not apply as far as we are held liable without any restriction pursuant to mandatory and statutory law for intent or gross negligence.
9 Retention of Titlet
9.1 The commodities sold remain our property up to complete payment of our claims from the business relationship established with the Buyer. The Buyer shall have the right to use the purchased commodities in the normal course of business.
9.2 Retention of title also applies to the products manufactured by processing, mixing or integrating of our commodities to their full value whereby we are identified as manufacturers. If the title of ownership of third parties is retained upon processing, mixing and integrating commodities delivered by them, we acquire co-ownership relative to the invoice values of such commodities processed.
9.3 Claims arising from the resale against third parties shall be assigned by the Buyer to us even for the time being either as a whole or to the extent of our probable share in any co-ownership to provide security (see Clause 9.2). The Buyer shall have the right to recover such claims on our account until further notice or for cease of his payments to us. The Buyer shall not be authorized to assign such claims even not for the purpose of recovery of claims by way of factoring, unless there is a justified duty of the factor to effect considerations directly to us to the extent of our claim share as long as there are still claims raised by us against the Buyer.
9.4 Any access of third parties to commodities and claims belonging to us shall be notified instantly by the Buyer via registered mail to enable us to file a lawsuit pursuant to § 771 Civil Practice Code. As far as said third party is not able to reimburse us for judicial and extra-judicial expenses of a lawsuit pursuant to § 771 Civil Practice Code, the Buyer shall be held liable for the deficit incurred to us.
9.5 Any exercise of the retention of title does not mean termination of contract unless we expressly declare this.
9.6 The commodities and claims superseding them should neither be mortgaged to third parties nor assigned and pledged as security prior to complete payment of our claims.
9.7 If the value of securities surpasses our claims by more than 20%, we will insofar release securities at our discretion on the Buyer's demand.
10 Place of Performance and Venue
The place of performance for shipment shall be the respective place of departure of the commodities for payment Chemnitz. If the Buyer is a registered trader, the place of venue shall be Chemnitz or, at our discretion, the general place of his venue.
11 Choice of Law, Place of Performance and Venue, Safeguarding Clause
11.1 The present General Terms and Conditions shall also apply to any and all transactions and sales to abroad. German law excluding private international law shall apply exclusively to the contractual relationship. Application of international law, for instance, UN Sales Law is excluded.
11.2 As far as reference is made to general rules or the "ex works" clause and unless otherwise agreed in the sales contract and in the present Terms and Conditions, the "ex works (EXW) Chemnitz" clause shall apply in compliance with INCOTERMS 2010.
11.3 As far as we have to initiate judicial or foreclosure proceedings abroad, the Buyer undertakes to bear all judicial and extra-judicial expenses including cost for lawyers' assistance to the extent our claims have been justified.
11.4 The place of performance for all claims arising from the contractual relationship established between us and the Buyer shall be Chemnitz. If the Buyer is a registered trader, the place of venue shall be Chemnitz. We shall have the right to file a lawsuit against the Buyer at his legal place of venue. This shall also apply to contracts concluded with contracting partners abroad.
11.5 If some issues of the present General Terms and Conditions of Delivery and Payment are or will become ineffective, the validity of other regulations shall remain unaffected thereby.

Chapter 1 : Prologue

Background: Font color:
Sirius feels the smooth ivory keys sliding beneath his fingertips as he practices under his mother's watchful eye. His still inexpert hands strike the wrong notes too frequently for his father's exacting tastes. Mr. Black winces every time Sirius's slender fingers slip and Mrs. Black clicks her tongue in disapproval before making him start again from the beginning.
Sirius likes to go back to the drawing room after dinner and practice without his mother and father present. It is much easier to play, he thinks, when there is no one to expect perfection.
On the night before he is to go to Hogwarts, Sirius sits in the dim-lighted room aimlessly striking notes. The sound echoes horribly in the large room and suddenly, Sirius feels alone. He knows what is expected of him at Hogwarts, the reputation he must maintain, because his parents have drilled it into his head:
'Don't forget that you are a Black,' his mother says with cold eyes and a stoic gaze. 'We are like royalty. Act like you are from the most ancient and noble house of Black. Toujours Pur, Sirius. Remember that. Do not disappoint us.'
But it is at times like these, when he is alone and given the opportunity to think without his thoughts being censored by his parents, that he doesn't feel like a Black. He looks like a Black and he acts like a Black because that is how he was raised, but inside, he feels as though maybe this isn't where he belongs.
"Sirius?" The door swings open without a sound and Regulus's shadow is thrown across the room.
"What do you want, Regulus?" Sirius asks with a sigh.
Regulus closes the door behind him and walks over to the piano. He sits down next to Sirius and begins to play with skill and ease.
"If you've come to show off the amazing talent mother keeps telling me about, I'd rather not listen, thanks," Sirius says sourly.
Regulus stops playing and Sirius wants to wipe the look of surprise off his face. "I wasn't trying to…" he starts, but quickly quiets at the look Sirius is giving him.
"What do you want?" Sirius asks again.
"You're going to Hogwarts tomorrow. What's it gonna be like, do you think?"
Sirius shrugs and slips off the bench, settling himself comfortably in his father's chair. "You've heard Bella, Andy, and Cissy talk about it."
"I know, but they probably make up stories to make it seem better than it really is. Do you think teachers torture you with spells and potions? Maybe your Potions professor will make you drink something poisonous!" Regulus says excitedly.
Sirius crosses his arms and narrows his eyes at his younger brother. "What books have you got yourself into, Reg?" he asks suspiciously.
"I haven't been reading any books like that. But Bella told me that her Potions professor made some Gryffindor drink a potion that made his head swell and he had to go to the infirmary because the professor wouldn't make it right again and he was too embarrassed to walk around with a big head."
Sirius smirks. "And you don't think that was a story Bella made up?"
Regulus's eyes widen in shock. "You really think so?"
"I don't know, Regulus. It could have happened," Sirius says casually, leaning further back into the cool, comforting leather of the chair.
"Do you think it ever gets cold in the common room, in the dungeons?"
"Probably not," Sirius replies. "They have big roaring fires that you can sit by."
Regulus is quiet and gnaws on his bottom lip anxiously. "I'm gonna miss you, Sirius," he blurts out unexpectedly, looking up at his older brother sadly.
Sirius doesn't know what to say. They have never really shown affection towards one another and to be perfectly honest, he's a bit surprised at Regulus's outburst.
"You'll come to Hogwarts in a few years," Sirius says after a while, still unsure of how to respond.
"But you'll be there first," Regulus pouts.
It takes a few moments for everything to click into place, but Sirius suddenly realizes that Regulus is jealous of him. Ever since he was born, Regulus has always been compared to Sirius and has usually come out on top. Regulus does everything perfectly; he never questions anything, and he acts like a mother's little pureblood prince should.
But tomorrow, it will be Sirius going off to Hogwarts, carrying the Black legacy in the stiffness of his back and the regal look upon his face. The face of a soon-to-be king. Sirius is heir to the throne and the crown but it is Regulus who wants it more.

Public Library of Science's Cameron Neylon on the state of Open Access: Where are we, what still needs to be done? "I expect a lot of heavy lifting on infrastructure and systems, largely quiet and unsung to be undertaken by OA publishers, repository developers and policy makers, while in the public sphere a lot of shouting and noise will get the headlines. There will be fierce debate on harmonising US, EU, and UK OA policies. Much will be said about the differences in theory, but there will be a lot of quiet progress in practice alongside an increase in lobbying by some of the traditional publishers aiming to slow things down. And likely an increase in pressure from funders and institutions on publishers about greater pricing transparency. By mid-2014 we will have an emerging picture of what the transition will look like in the sciences, with some areas of the humanities and social sciences making significant progress and some being left behind. We will start seeing large scale re-aggregations and tools based on them emerging in the next 12 months and the advantages of liberal licensing will start to become clear as accessible but non-open content starts to get left behind in preference to that which can be effectively re-used and shared."

Helping scholars tell their stories using altmetrics – Elsevier. Academic research and publishing have transitioned from paper to online platforms, and that migration has continued to evolve from closed platforms to connected networks. With this evolution, there is growing interest in the academic community in how we might measure scholarly activity online beyond formal citation. The collection, analysis and presentation of data about how people share and discuss academic papers are known as altmetrics. Over the last year altmetrics has received increasing attention in journals, conferences and social media. (A good starting point for learning about altmetrics is http://altmetrics.org/manifesto.) Data collected by altmetric platforms come from many sources, ranging from PDF downloads on scholarly platforms to mentions on everyday social websites. More here.

Open Access Week 2013 will take place on October 21-27. Find various events here and here.
An OA publisher's perspective on CC-BY. As the Director of the University of Adelaide Press, I am participating in the Humanities and Social Sciences session in the OASPA (Open Access Scholarly Publishers Association) conference in Latvia, Riga later this month. OASPA was initially set up to group together Open Access journal publishers, and now is keen to include book publishers, in all disciplines. At present, which is why I am speaking, OASPA require that their members not only have published at least one Open Access book, but also that it is published with a licence that allows the "broadest re-use of published material possible". Their preference is the 'CC-BY' licence, now required by the United Kingdom funding bodies if they fund research, the European Union, and increasingly other funding bodies around the world. I do not believe this licence is automatically appropriate for Humanities and Social Sciences which generally publish in books. 'Open Access' as a term was formally adopted in the Budapest Open Access Initiative in December 2001, with the aim of assisting faster advances in Sciences, Medicine and Health. Subsequently, the six Creative Commons licences were created, to provide globally coherent copyright licences. I do not have a quibble with the most open licence of all, the CC-BY licence, when it is used in Sciences, Medicine and Health. Or for that matter, if any author in the Humanities and Social Sciences wishes to use it. My quibble is when it is mandated to all of us to use. I disagree flatly and categorically that when there are six different Creative Commons licences that only one must be used. Read here.

Open access "tipping point": 50 per cent of science articles freely available within two years. A recent study funded by the European Commission and undertaken by analysts at Science-Metrix, a Montreal-based company that assesses science and technology organizations, has concluded that half of all published academic papers become freely available in no more than two years. According to the study, the year 2011 is a milestone for open access. By this analysis, 50 per cent of all scientific articles published in 2011 are currently available in some open access form or another, and the trend is toward more and more articles becoming open access. The study says that the "free availability of a majority of articles has been reached in general science and technology, in biomedical research, biology, and mathematics and statistics." More here.

The Other Side of Open is Not Closed, Dazza Greenwood, JD. Impliedly, the opposite of "open" is "closed" but the other side of open data, open API's and open access is usually still about enabling access but only when allowed or required. Open government also needs to include adequate methods to access and work with data and other resources that are not fully open. In fact, many (most?) high value, mission critical and societally important data access is restricted in some way. If a data-set is not fully public record then a good practice is to think of it as "protected" and to ensure access according to proper controls. As a metaphorical illustration, you could look at an open data system like a village square or agora that is architected and intended to be broadly accessible. On the other side of the spectrum, you could see a protected data system more like a castle or garrison, that is architected to be secure from intruders but features guarded gates and controlled access points in order to function.

Higher Ed Associations Form Joint Steering Group to Build Federated System for Publicly Funded Research. The Association of Research Libraries (ARL), the Association of American Universities (AAU), and the Association of Public and Land-grant Universities (APLU) today announced the formation of a joint steering group to advance a proposed network of digital repositories at universities, libraries, and other research institutions across the US that will provide long-term public access to federally funded research articles and data. The steering group will oversee a feasibility study, guide policy, and explore governance structures necessary for prototyping and implementing the network. This repository network, the SHared Access Research Ecosystem (SHARE), is being developed as one response to a White House directive instructing federal funding agencies to make the results of research they fund available to the public.

Where to find funds for publishing in Gold Open Access? If you are considering publishing in Gold OA it is worth to check, if your alma mater offers funds for these purposes. As I mentioned, research institutions and universities have extra money for this. For example – Genome Canada or Wellcome Trust. Wellcome Trust is the independent research-funding charity which introduced its own OA policy offering grants with additional funding for Open Access charges. But research institutions are just one of the sources. More here.

THE: EC study finds low citation gains for gold open access. An analysis of articles published via various open access models found that in all fields but physics and astronomy, publishing in journals giving immediate open access to articles was linked with a lower rate of citation by other academics. The disadvantage was "marked" in the arts, humanities and social sciences, economics and business and chemistry, says the report by Montreal-based research evaluation consultancy Science-Metrix. But its findings echo previous studies suggesting that in general open access publishing increases citation. More here.

CounterPress: A New Open Access Publisher! CounterPress, a new publisher focusing in critical theory and radical thinking, has just been announced. The publisher is an offshoot of Critical Legal Thinking, a blog "to enable critical legal scholars to make public interventions." CounterPress will offer "reasonably priced" printed books, in addition to a digital "pay-as-you-can" model. Counterpress seeks to offer "critical legal scholars and allied theorists, philosophers, and other trans/inter-disciplinary academics an alternative to traditional book publishers." So far, CounterPress has announced 4 titles, "Being Social: The Social and Legal Bond in Poststructuralism," "Introduction to Critical Finance Law," "The Other Critical Legal Studies" and The "Politics of Law and the Logic of Rupture."

The Danger Of Universal Gold Open Access, Björn Brembs. As a strong supporter of any open access initative over the last almost ten years, there is now a looming threat that the situation may deteriorate beyond the abysmal state scholarly publishing is in right now. Yes, you read that right: it can get worse than it is today. What would be worse? Universal gold open access – that is, every publisher charges the authors what they want for making the articles publicly accessible. I've been privately warning of this danger for some time, and now an email and a blog post by Ross Mounce reminded me that it is about time to make my lingering fear a little more public. He wrote: Outrageous press release from Nature Publishing Group today. More here.

Soil Testing
Last weekend when we planted our potatoes, we decided that we would expand our potato plot into the strawberry bed, which we made room for by emptying a very sad cranberry bed of its pathetic plants:
To make sure that we wouldn't just be killing strawberries in that bed the way we killed those cranberries, we grabbed a soil test kit at our local feed store (yes, that's a thing):
In all our years of gardening, we've never once bothered with a soil test. I guess we've just gotten lucky with good soil, and all our compost use paid off. So this was fun.
You fill up to the first line of the plastic test tube with soil from a depth of 4 inches. Then you empty that little capsule of powder into the tube. Add water, shake it up, and let it settle:
Then you compare the color of the water to the chart on the package. This is very alkaline, which explains why the cranberries never thrived they need really acidic soil, so they were never able to absorb the necessary nutrients to grow and, you know, make cranberries. This soil is even too alkaline for strawberries, so we added some sulfur to amend the bed.
We're going to let that sit for a season, though, since the Tribute strawberries that we planted in 2012 look really terrible this year. I was planning on replacing them next summer, but we decided to do it a year early. These have been replaced with Sparkle, a June-bearing variety. That makes the half of this bed in the foreground a June-bearing bed, which is easy to keep track of anyway. Next year we'll plant some ever-bearing variety in that old cranberry bed, which will hopefully be back to a more neutral soil by then.
We also tested our blueberry bed, which turned out to be neutral. Too bad it's supposed to be really acidic. We also added some more sulfur there, and the fertilizer for each plant is also acidic, so hopefully by next year it will be well on its way. In the meantime, we bought four new blueberries to replace ones that never took off:
If it would ever get warmer than a 37-degree windchill, we'll plant them and be good to go.

It's official Ro-Ro has hay fever. He's never had it before. Maybe it's something to do with the street trees around here. Or perhaps it's just an exceptionally bad season for allergy sufferers. I've heard such speculation among adults afflicted with the condition. Anyway, following a trip to the doctor yesterday we now have a regime to adhere to, involving an uncomfortable-looking nasal spray and regular steamy showers. (Thanks Daddy, since Mummy is consumed by work commitments.) We also have to trip off some time today to get Little Wanna's wrist x-rayed after her fall on the ice rink. Just to be sure. We're all at the end of our comfort zone this week. But according to the rhyme, we should expect 'something better' tomorrow.

What A Run!!!
Tuesday, May 10, 2011
It's been a while since I blogged but I've been really busy and I felt like the longer I stayed on the website, the shorter my sleep. SP advices sleep is more important so I chose sleep. I do miss blogging though. It helps me relieve stress when I can vent and just simply talking about my journey helps me stay on course.
So, where do I begin? Okay, first of, let me tell you that I'm a proud graduate
of the C25K program!
All the hard work paid off because I went from barely able to run 2 minutes to finishing a 5K! You heard that right! This past Saturday, I joined the Los Angeles Revlon run/walk for women with breast cancer. I ran the whole way in 35 minutes!!! I was so proud of myself that I started to choke up when I saw the finish line and I was in tears by the time I reached it. I've gotta say though that my husband made it special for me. Although he's a faster runner, he stayed on my pace and did this with me all the way, encouraging me and making sure I was okay. As we were finishing, he said, "Good job honey! You did it!" and that was it...I was crying in his arms by that time. Yeah, I probably could have done it without him, but he made the experience that much better and for that, I think I love him even more now
I'm thankful that I've "learned" how to run because of the C25K program. The person who created it is
! Without it, it would have been really hard for me to get into running and loving it at the same time. Who knew that someone like myself could run? Wow! Even I'm still amazed!
Music was a big a factor in my running too. Without it, I'd be completely bored and too focused on time. I couldn't have done it without my iPhone.
Last, but not least, I've continued to lose weight due to running alongside good eating habits during the week. No plateau here since I've started running and I don't plan to stop now.
As of now, I can incorporate running into my fitness along with other activities I love and will love. I'm just so happy right now!!!

Hi, i'm trying to customize look of coloring book and everything is working good except I can't paint on some parts of images and same parts are not working as buttons. I've tried to save png with and without compression, same with export every combination gives same result. Images are PNG 900px width, transparent 24 bit. When I export game without any changes it's working good. When I changed images in original exported game it was also working properly. You can check my problem here http://wip2.stronazen.pl/demo/ Please help :]
You need to open the image editor in Construct2 and change the collision polygons. Here is an image for reference » http://i.imgur.com/A6TktNd.png
Let me know if you got it!
Now it's working perfectly :] Thanks for quick response and great game.
I am glad you liked it. If you need help again let me know. If you have a chance, please leave a review
Hi there,
I have a WordPress website and I'd love to have a bunch of your kids activities on the site, is there a way I can implement these in there somehow?
Cheers, Jackmagic.
Yes. You just need to upload the demo file to your server.
and just copy and paste the html code to a new page?
and just copy and paste the html code to a new page?
Yes. After you upload. get the path and add it to an iframe.
I purchased 3 of your games ( I think they look great), but I don't have Construct2, nor can I get it because I use a mac. Could I ask you to please send me an HTML5 versions of the following games to me at firstname.lastname@example.com? I tried using the demo files, but they won't work. If you can send me the HTML5 versions that would be great!
1.) Kids Coloring Book – HTML5 Educational Game 2.) Discussion on 50 States Challenge – HTML5 Educational Game 3.) Feed Mypetdog Number – Educational HTML5 Game
I will be happy to send you the purchase codes to all these via email.
I really look forward to receiving the files from you ASAP.
Thanks! Peter TinyGrads
Sure. I will send them to you now.
Hi Dexterfly, Is it possible to change the images in the game, without the need of Construct2 (i'm on Mac and no programmer). I need a colouring book were i can change the images by replacing them for example in a directory. Like to hear from you
The way Construct2 works, you will you need to download the FREE version in order to change the images. Perhaps you can use wmware to run windows on a Mac computer.
Hello, I'm interest in your app. But I have some questions if your app meets my requirements. 1. Can I upload photo from phone with big size? 2. Can I save the photo with doodle right to the HDD without the save dialog? 3. Is it needs to run on a server?
1. No. You need to insert the phone using Construct2. The users/players don't have the ability to include images to the game. 2. This is a browser functionality. I don't think you can bypass the save dialog box. 3. You need to upload the game to a website in order for other to play it.
Can I compile it on phonegap?
Yes. You can export to Phonegap, Intel XDK and Cocoon. However, you need a personal license to export to mobile from Construct2.
Hi, will I get .capx file so that I can make the changes to the game using Construct2?
Yes. All my games comes with the capx, documentation and demo folder
Hello! have some problem when i try to build it in cocoon, Internal compilation error Only changes i have made is the icons and some graphics. Any suggestions?
Can you please send me a screenshot of the error or the log?
yeah here is a screenshot of the error. Android works but not when i tru to build a ios apphttps://drive.google.com/file/d/0B3aWfoS4qXlFbFJPdFMxNnJzeWc/view?usp=sharing
In most cases, errors with IOS are related to plugins. Are you using any plugin in particular? Is so, have you download the latest plugins from Cocoon for Construct2. When I get home, I will export it to Cocoon to see if I can recriate the error.
no have no ads or anything, just tried to download the app i bought from you, exported it in construct (cordova) (ios) did not make any changes, just the id.
uploaded all the profiles in cocoon, adhoc and store, tried to compile the adhoc, store, and developer but its not working. I have 5 more projects in cocoon and all of them is compiling.
I just compiled the project in Cocoon.io and I got no errors.
Here are a few details about my setup: - Construct2 Release 226 - Export to Cordova (uncheck minify script) - Delete both xml files (config and intelxdk.config.additions) - Zip the files and import in Cocoon.io
In Cocoon.io: - Select webview engine = canvas+ - Orientation = landscape - Fullscreen = Yes
Then I click to compile the project. Here is the results: http://imgur.com/v2F4Wlg
its strange i use exctly the same setup as you, but "Internal compilation error" tried delete all the profiles and made new ones, sama problem… this has never happened before in my projects… and didnt change any plugins. Tried to delete the whole project and uploaded the zip file an made a new one but same problems, and if i go in to another project that i have and try to compile it, everything works…
Now i got it! By mistake i exported the developer certificate, when it should be the distribution certificate. now everything works
Great! I am glad it worked.
How can I make it so that I can zoom in on images I want to color. This is difficult when trying to zoom on mobile devices because when I pinch on the images it doesn't work. Is there anyway to do this. I hope you understand what I am trying to say.
HTML5 games should prevent the player from scaling the canvas. If you know how to use Construct2 perhaps you can program it to work like that but there is no simple solution for it.
Hi, I'm thinking of buying this, but I'm wondering how difficult it is to customize this with my own images. I don't know what Construct2 is and have never used it – would that make it harder to replace them? Also what image format is needed for this? I already have some black and white SVGs created by our illustrator.
Hi, I am glad you liked the game. It is simple to change the images using the FREE version of Construct2. The image format is PNG (transparent).
You would double click on the image and change it with yours. Once done you would export the game to HTML5 (FREE) or to mobile if you have the Construct2 Personal or Business licenses.
Also, if you are interested I can provide simple game modifications for a reasonable fee. Let me know what you think.
Hey, like the game and I have one question. Is it possible to extend the game from left to right without black side bars? Or any other way to avoid that empty space?
Thank you.
Basically, you will need to change the fullscreen in browser settings and include a background image that would fit in any screen. Right now, the game is predefined to a size. So, if you want to be dynamic you will need to change the settings and the background.
Is there a way to add more than eight color photos? Or is it possible to link directly to a single image?
I don't understand what you mean by eight color photos? Do you mean eight colors or eight images? What do you mean link direct? link do an image on the internet or load an image from your computer?
For instance can there be 2 or 3 pages of photos to choose from? Also can we link directly to a chosen image (click link and it automatically opens up that photo for coloring)..
1) Yes. You can add more pages of photos. You just need to program it in Construct2. The game was built in a way you can use the FREE version of the software. You just need to download, make the changes and export it again. 2) No. For this game, all the images must be loaded previously before you upload it to your server.
Take a look at this other game of ours that the images are categorized https://codecanyon.net/item/coloring-book-48-pages-html5-educational-game/13817576

Notice boards are an absolute must for any business large and small. Whatever type of business you run, you're bound to need at least one place to display employee notices, essential information about the business, and don't forget about the various health and safety posters you're legally required to display in a prominent position.
This notice board lets you display all kinds of information in style, with its clean, modern appearance. The neat look of an aluminium frame perfectly complements whichever of the customisation options you choose, and the board helps give your informational displays an up-to-date and professional feel. Being unobtrusive enough to avoid distracting from the important notices it holds doesn't have to mean a plain, boring board, and a bit of colour makes it more likely to catch people's attention and be reviewed regularly.
The board will be supplied with all the fixings needed to mount it on the wall, which can be done in either portrait or landscape orientation. This gives you total control over how you want to display your notices and allows the board to fit into a wider range of spaces. The board is easy to set up, and as you won't need to buy further fixings to do so, can be done as soon as you want to.
For safety, this notice board is also made from flame-retardant materials compliant to BS EN 13501-01: 2007 Class B, so helps protect you and your employees in the event of a fire. The ideal way to create a safe informational display on your business premises. This notice board is only suitable for indoor use, but if you need to display information in an outdoor area, we also offer an exterior showcase board.

A Jeremy Corbyn lookalike turned up at the ITV Leaders' Debate – poking fun at the Labour leader who refused to take part.
The man, who bore a striking resemblance to Mr Corbyn, arrived at the stage door of the studio in Salford and claimed to be the politician.
ITV News political editor Robert Peston tweeted a picture of the man and wrote: "This bloke turned up at stage door for the debate."
And BBC Breakfast reporter Monika Plaha shared a video of the lookalike marching up to the ITV studios with an entourage of people.
One person commented that the impersonator is "pretending to be the Leader of the Opposition. As, indeed, is Jeremy Corbyn".
Another commented that the "likeness is astonishing".
In 90 seconds: The ITV Leaders' Debate
Both Mr Corbyn and Theresa May have come under fire for not taking part in Thursday evening's debate.
The Prime Minister said she would not be involved in any TV debates and Mr Corbyn said he would not take part unless she was present.
Instead, the leaders of the Lib Dems, Ukip, Green Party, Plaid Cymru and the SNP will face off for the two-hour debate chaired by broadcaster Julie Etchingham.
Debate: Caroline Lucas, Tim Farron, Leanne Wood, Paul Nuttall, Nicola Sturgeon and presenter Julie Etchingham (Rex Features)

The long-term objective of this project is to identify the mechanism by which damage, in particular damage to the nuclear genome that arises spontaneously as a consequence of endogenous processes, promotes aging-related degenerative changes. The current model is that stochastic damage promotes aging via a cell autonomous mechanism, i.e., by driving cell senescence or cell death. We seek to challenge this model by carefully examining how spontaneous DNA damage drives aging in a mouse model of a human progeriod syndrome caused by a defect in DNA repair. The approach will be to combine unique genetic and mass spectrometry tools to accomplish the following aims: 1) To use highly sensitive LC-MS/MS/MS assays to measure endogenous oxidative DNA lesions in tissues of progeroid and wild-type mice at multiple ages and determine if the level of damage predicts the extent of aging-related pathology in each of these tissues. 2) To genetically deplete DNA repair in one tissue or cell type at a time and determine the impact on those cells, neighboring cells and distant tissues, to determine if damage drives aging via a cell-autonomous or non-autonomous mechanism. 3) To use parabiosis between normal and progeroid mice to determine if circulating factors can overcome accelerated aging due to too much DNA damage. 4) To use unbiased and targeted proteomics approaches to identify systemic signals activated in response to genotoxic stress and old age. Successful completion of these aims is anticipated to yield novel information about the aging process and if there are common underlying mechanisms for multiple aging-related diseases. The proteomics work may yield new biomarkers of biologic age. In addition, extension of our preliminary work via this project is anticipated to yield rational strategies to extend healthspan ofthe elderly by reducing stochastic damage and/or inhibiting the damage responses that promote aging.
;This project seeks to identify the mechanism by which normal wear-and-tear causes aging and the inevitable loss of function that accompanies aging. The work is anticipated to yield novel biomarkers that can predict if someone is aging well or poorly. The work is also anticipated to yield novel strategies for preventing wear-and-tear and/or its consequences to improve the health ofthe elderly.

What sort of words/devices e.g pathetic fallacy, imagery etc has Mary Shelley used in chapter 5?
I've got to do a language anaylsis of chapter 5 so it would help as well if you explain what they suggest or mean as well as some quotes for extra help.

Early in the chapter, the pathetic fallacy is at work. The pathetic fallacy is a device in which the weather/setting reflects the emotions of the characters. In chapter 5, Victor mentions the weather several times; each time, it connects to his own emotional state. Consider even the first paragraph of the chapter:
It was on a dreary night of November that I beheld the accomplishment of my toils. With an anxiety that almost amounted to agony, I collected the instruments of life around me, that I might infuse a spark of being into the lifeless thing that lay at my feet. It was already one in the morning; the rain pattered dismally against the panes, and my candle was nearly burnt out, when, by the glimmer of the half-extinguished light, I saw the dull yellow eye of the creature open; it breathed hard, and a convulsive motion agitated its limbs.
I've marked in bold the diction that refers to both the weather and Victor's emotional state. He is anxious, to the point of nearly unbearable pain, and the weather is dreary and stormy, reflecting his own darkness. This continues throughout the chapter. When Victor flees the apartment, it is still raining.
I did not dare return to the apartment which I inhabited, but felt impelled to hurry on, although drenched by the rain which poured from a black and comfortless sky.
Note the description of the sky: "black and comfortless". That is exactly how Victor views the world at that moment. Tormented by his creation, he sees himself as friendless and alone. These are some direct examples of the pathetic fallacy in this chapter. As for imagery, there's many examples throughout the novel. One distinguishing characteristic of Shelley's style is her overly descriptive narration. In chapter 5, one exemplary scene is Victor's dream, where his kiss turns Elizabeth, healthy in the prime of life, into the corpse of his mother. Another use of imagery captures Victor's emotions when thinking about his creation.
Oh! No mortal could support the horror of that countenance. A mummy again endued with animation could not he so hideous as that wretch. I had gazed on him while unfinished; he was ugly then, but when those muscles and joints were rendered capable of motion, it became a thing such as even Dante could not have conceived.
By comparing the creature to "a mummy...endued with animation" and a thing unimagined even by Dante, Victor's true horror is easily grasped by the reader.
Chapter 5 of 'Frankenstein' is indeed filled with a variety of techniques to stimulate the reader to visualize the unique event of the creature coming to life. Here are a few to consider for your work-
Pathetic Fallacy
In the best Gothic style the most dramatic and devilish of events occur in a corresponding atmosphere. The events unfurl on:
A dreary night of November
As the:
Rain pattered dismally.
Emotive Language
The narrator clearly expresses his disgust for his creation in his descriptions of it-
Miserable monster
Demoniacal corpse
The narrator is appalled by his creature and his earlier beliefs that the creation could pass as human.
Beautiful! Great God!
In order to emphasise the repulsive appearance the creature's life now represents, we are given a dramatic comparison-
'a thing such as even Dante could not have conceived.
This illustration, as well as the reference to The Ancient Mariner, is an allusion.
This is merely the beginning of the chapter – you can continue in this vein for your assignment. Good luck!

Ireland's charismatic capital remains as popular as ever as a city break destination. From shopping breaks to hen and stag weekends, Dublin delivers the perfect package each time.
This down to earth destination has a charm and personality of its own. While in town, why not pay a visit to the Guinness Storehouse to discover its history and how it's made? It's beer-lover heaven, and pays homage to Ireland's most famous export.
St Stephen's Green in the city centre is an ideal place, weather permitting, to enjoy an al-fresco lunch and watch the city go by. If the weather's not on your side, there are plenty of shops to be discovered, while Dublin's museums are also excellent places to while away a few hours. But if socialising is your forte, then you've come to the right place - enter any pub and it won't be long before you're joining in the craic and enjoying a pint of the black stuff.
