text: Composer Brent Maher, taking over as Sylvia's producer for the first time, seems to have said to her, in effect, "Slow down, darlin', and let the people know how you feel." In any case, this album is filled with a far moodier, more introspective batch of country music than has been typical for Sylvia, who leaned toward easygoing ballads and gimmicky country pop tunes under previous producer Tom Collins. She brings off the change nicely, emoting away on such numbers as I Can't Help the Way That I Don't Feel, Breakin' It and True Blue. There's also a bouncy duet, I Love You by Heart, with the mellow-sounding Michael Johnson. Sylvia's intensity can get a trifle piercing at times, and softening her voice for this kind of down-tempo material seems to have generated a productively moderating effect. The album displays a new side of an established performer and accomplishes that in a most entertaining way. (RCA)

West Florida denies Trojans' CWS dreams
By Rudy Coggins
Published in Sports on June 3, 2011 1:47 PM
CARY -- The "hitting ghosts" haunted Mount Olive College one final time Thursday afternoon.
The Trojans just couldn't connect on the key base knock.
West Florida did.
All-American right fielder Greg Pron delivered the game-winning, two-RBI single in the seventh inning, and the No. 4-ranked Argonauts eliminated the Trojans, 5-3, from the NCAA Division II College World Series.
West Florida (51-9 overall) plays Winona State (42-17) for the national championship Saturday at Coleman Field on the USA National Baseball Training Complex. First pitch is noon.
"I'm very proud of these kids," said Trojans head coach Carl Lancaster. "We've worked since day one to get here. We had five goals and completed four of them. Obviously, we didn't make the fifth one this year.
"It was a great year -- a great bunch of guys."
Mount Olive (47-10) had its chances.
The Trojans put runners on base in six of nine innings, but left nine stranded on the afternoon. Lancaster's team batted a paltry 2-for-11 with runners in scoring position, including 0-for-6 in the final three innings combined.
West Florida relievers Zach Jadofsky and Zach North coerced the Trojans into four ground-ball outs, a flyout and inning-ending strikeout during that stretch. Jadofsky (4-0) emerged the winning pitcher, while North earned his first save of the season.
"We didn't come up with timely hits," said Trojans' outfielder Jason Simone. "I know I didn't. I got put in a couple of situations where I should have hit the ball and scored a couple of runs, but I didn't come through."
Designated hitter Mike Knox put the Trojans ahead 1-0 with a two-out, RBI sacrifice fly in the first inning. The Argonauts tapped out the equalizer on Josh Huggins' RBI single in the second inning.
Mount Olive regained the lead in the fourth.
Tyler Smith and Dan Hayduk cranked out back-to-back base hits, and both scored on Daniel Coffey's two-RBI double into the left-field corner. It was Coffey's lone hit of the day.
West Florida mustered just three hits in the first five innings against Trojans' starter Pete Levitt. The 270-pound right-hander used an effective fastball and off-speed pitch to keep the Argonauts from matching their offensive explosion from the first two games.
"I had the same mindset as the last game, which was location, location, location," said Levitt, who threw 115 pitches. "I tried to go as long as I could, but that last inning I just lost my velocity. Just like Coach (Lancaster) said, a couple of pitches and the results would have been different. You just have to take it as it is."
Levitt (10-3) retired nine consecutive hitters before encountering trouble in the seventh. He walked the lead-off batter and one out later, he plunked the No. 8 hitter -- Tyler Hastings.
Korey Domenick pulled West Florida to within 3-2 on a base hit. Two batters and one out later, Pron muscled a two-strike slider from Levitt into left field to put the Argonauts in front, 4-3. Pron concluded the day 2-for-5 with two RBI.
"I came in there and had made a slight adjustment my at-bat before and ended up getting a hit, so I stuck with that," said Pron, who was the Gulf South Conference player-of-the-year. "I was trying to protect every part of the plate and he threw a slider that stayed in, and I hooked it down the line. It was a great feeling."
West Florida added an eighth-inning run off reliever MOC reliever David Combs to cap the scoring. The Argonauts collected eight hits and four earned runs against the Trojans, who had one of the nation's top earned run averages heading into the CWS.

Open Thread: Talk About What Matters Most to You
Discuss and debate the issues that mean the most to you.
I set the science lab on fire when I was in 8th grade.
Not on purpose. In typical "so smart you're stupid" fashion I was careless with a beaker of alcohol and a Bunsen burner. The resulting damage was well... minimal isn't the correct word; still, they only had to replace one wall, not the whole room.
I was all of 12, and--except for some very blunt words about safety--I didn't really get in trouble. Mrs. Archibald (a great woman with no sense of humor, but an exceptional sense of devotion to her students) didn't even ban me from the lab. She knew I enjoyed science and wanted me to be everything I could be in life.
It turns out that my innate clumsiness precludes any work that requires steady hands moving slowly (though I can throw a grenade really really far), but I still loved learning how things work. And now, I watch my soon to be 14 year-old son do incredibly stupid things (none of which have involved fire, thank God), I am eternally glad that I was able to get here from there.
Fortunately, I went to a majority black school with a majority black staff, and am frequently aware that my experience in Chicago Public Schools was vastly different from what it could have been had I the misfortune of an administration that wasn't invested in my success.
We had school security, though not the police officers that are so popular now. Mr. Mack came upstairs the day I set the lab on fire, shook his head a lot, but didn't once suggest putting handcuffs on me. Like the rest of the staff, he was focused on protecting us from ourselves and from outside dangers. Unlike Kiera Wilmot, my mistake caused actual property damage, though no one was hurt. My life may have been ruined if anyone had decided to press charges against for being stupid with chemicals.
We can pretend that Kiera Wilmot's expulsion, arrest, and felony charges are about fear of terrorism, or zero tolerance's fault, and that race has nothing to do with it. We can even pretend that her being charged as an adult is a fluke. We can even pretend that Polk county is a place where she ever had a hope of fair treatment from authorities.
All of those are lies, but whatever comforts America and bolsters the delusion that we're post-racial is going to be said anyway. So, say it to yourself and then move on. This is about race, gender, class, and access to higher education. It is about the profit margin for prisons and police brutality and a dozen other hoops that Kiera will have to overcome to succeed.
By all accounts, Kiera is a smart kid with an excellent behavioral record. That's great, really. I'm glad she appears to be the perfect victim of circumstance because that ups her chances of being helped. After all, it only took black women raising hell to every available media outlet for a week to take this story national. That's pretty quick. And I really believe that the internet will be able to help Kiera Wilmot in this situation.
What I don't believe is that Kiera Wilmot's case is unusual. Not in Florida, or anywhere else where being a person of color means fitting the description for crimes that have never been committed. Much is made in some circles of the higher rates of incarceration for black people. And yes, the War on Drugs, gang violence, and sheer poverty have a lot to do with those statistics.
But what is rarely discussed is how often people who aren't guilty of anything more than being of color can face lifelong consequences for their skin color. Racism punishes black people for existing much less for exhibiting behaviors that would likely be seen as youthful indiscretions if they were white.
I went to high school with a white guy who stole things (including $20,000 worth of computer equipment) from our school district. He got the lightest of wrist slaps and went on to have a successful military career. Another white guy built pipe bombs. Regularly. Even phoned in bomb threats when the mood struck him. He also got a slap on the wrist, some counseling, and is now living in relative obscurity.
Lest you try to frame this as a privilege reserved for white males, let me also point out that I have known more than one white woman who stalked a black man and he was the only one facing any real consequences for it.
Anecdata, you say? Sure, we can go with that. It's not like anyone tracks slaps on the wrist. But ask yourself when was the last time you heard about a improperly supervised white child experimenting in school who meant no harm, harmed no one, and damaged nothing of value getting hauled out of their school in handcuffs and summarily expelled a week later.
Better yet, ask yourself why the school district felt so free to take these actions against Kiera. The same system that says "Don't ruin their future!" to young white Americans feels free to destroy the futures of black children.
Why is that? How post-racial are we when black parents have to sit down and warn their children not to be too smart, too curious, too anything, because that could ruin them?

Your existence is a script,
Life for you is a perfomance,
Play out the leading role.
Directing and premeditating every move
That creates the act of manipulation
Mastering the art of deception.
That increases your sick addiction
It's an overactive imagination
That enslaves your empty shell
[Lead: Chuck]
Existing in dimensions of addictive obsession
[Lead: Andy]
Your script will run short of ideas
The story will soon end itself
People to trust come short in number.
Like a plague your lies spread
Fast across the world
Mastering the art of deception
That increases your sick addition
It's an overactive imagination
That enslaves your empty shell

Absorptive Capacity: When is too much capital still not enough?
Posted in Analysis, Market Comments, Social Observations on Aug 25th, 2010
From small start-ups, to foreign aid and the housing crisis, absorptive capacity can impact capital allocation decisions in often unpredictable ways. Identifying the issues underlying absorptive capacity can assist us both as individual economic agents and at an aggregate level. This post reviews three examples where absorption capacities can adversely affect economic outcomes and how pragmatic awareness can assist in reaching a better solution.

Part 2: Inner Strength for Outer Action
Editor's Note: In honor of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.'s life, we are offering an eReflections series calling attention to the strength of soul he embodied. Each article highlights a major theme found in his sermons, speeches and other writings.
Part 1: Opposites in Fruitful Harmony
"Admitting the weighty problems and staggering disappointments, Christianity affirms that God is able to give us the power to meet them. He is able to give us the inner equilibrium to stand tall amid the trials and burdens of life. He is able to provide inner peace amid outer storms. This inner stability of the [person] of faith is Christ's chief legacy to his disciples."
– Martin Luther King, Jr.
There is no question that the primary rhythm that sustained Dr. King for the long haul of his leadership was the rhythm of prayer and action, action and prayer. He knew that God and God alone gives us the interior resources to bear the burdens and tribulations of life, especially those that come as we fulfill our call to serve others and to stand for what is right in this world. Had he not chosen to move back and forth between action and prayer—regularly tapping into a Source of soul-strength deeper than mere human activism—there is every evidence that he would have been swept away by fear and discouragement. The forces of evil would have prevailed, at least for a little while longer.
Strengthened in the Inner Being
In a sermon entitled "Our God is Able" Dr. King recounts a very personal story of how an intimate encounter with God sustained him in the darkest hour of his fight for freedom and equality.
Almost immediately after the Montgomery bus protest had been undertaken, we began to receive threatening phone calls and letters in our home. Sporadic in the beginning, they increased day after day. At first I took them in my stride, feeling they were the work of a few hotheads who would become discouraged after they discovered that we would not fight back. But as the weeks passed, I realized that many of the threats were in earnest. I felt myself faltering and growing in fear.
After a particularly strenuous day, I settled in bed at a late hour…and was about to doze off when the telephone rang. An angry voice said, "Listen, n@*#!, we've taken all we want from you. Before next week you'll be sorry you ever came to Montgomery." I hung up, but I could not go to sleep. It seemed all my fears had come down on me at once. I had reached the saturation point.
I got out of bed and began to walk the floor. Finally, I went to the kitchen and heated a pot of coffee. I was ready to give up. I tried to think of a way to move out of the picture without appearing to be a coward. In this state of exhaustion, when my courage had almost gone, I took my problem to God. My head in my hands, I bowed over the kitchen table and prayed aloud. The words I spoke to God that midnight are still vivid in my memory.
"I am here taking a stand for what I believe is right. But now I am afraid. The people are looking to me for leadership, and if I stand before them without strength, they too will falter. I am at the end of my powers. I have nothing left. I have come to the point where I can't face it alone."
At that moment I experienced the presence of the Divine as I had never experienced him. It seemed as though I could hear the quiet assurance of an inner voice, saying, "Stand up for righteousness, stand up for truth. God will be at your side forever." Almost at once my fears passed from me. My uncertainty disappeared. I was ready to face anything. The outer situation remained the same, but God had given me inner calm.
Three nights later, our home was bombed. Strangely enough, I accepted the word of the bombing calmly. My experience with God had given me a new strength and trust. I knew now that God is able to give us the interior resources to face the storms and problems of life. Let this be our ringing cry…that there is a great benign Power in the universe whose name is God, and he is able to make a way out of no way, and transform dark yesterdays into bright tomorrows. This is our hope for becoming better [people]. This is our mandate for seeking to make a better world.[i]
Transformed on the Edge
I share this account in its entirety because the emotions Dr. King experienced and the faith edge on which he found himself is an inevitability of any true call to God-directed action in the world. Such action will always call us to face our fear and then move beyond it to the very edge of what we think we are capable of. And that is exactly where God wants to meet us.
Dr. King's choice to orient himself towards God in the midst of the resistance that his action stirred up became a pivotal moment in his transformation as a leader. It solidified his calling, transformed his fear into a deep sense of calm, and gave him the strength to go on. Were it not for his full engagement in the fight for justice and his grounded-ness in the life of prayer, he might never have had the kind of encounter with God that moved him beyond fear to deeper faith, transforming him at the deepest level of his being. The work that God is doing in us is always as important as the work God is doing through us.

Planned Parenthood Pours Cash to Clinton
Hillary Clinton is the presidential candidate of choice for Planned Parenthood employees, according to campaign financial records released Wednesday.
The former secretary of state collected nearly $10,000 from nine individuals who work for the country's largest abortion provider, including from several high ranking executives at the billion-dollar operation. The first quarter fundraising total nearly matches the amount Clinton received over the course of her previous three political runs.
She received far more from Planned Parenthood employees than her Democratic rivals, the former Maryland governor Martin O'Malley, Sen. Bernie Sanders (I., VT), the former Rhode Island governor Lincoln Chafee, and the former Virginia senator Jim Webb. Webb, O'Malley, and Sanders have perfect pro-abortion voting records, while Chafee scored a 90, according to NARAL rankings. But Clinton raised 20 times as much money from Planned Parenthood employees. Sanders was the only other candidate to receive money from the abortion provider, garnering two donations totaling $500.
Vicki Cowart, the CEO of Planned Parenthood Rocky Mountains, Melissa Flournoy, the state director of Louisiana Planned Parenthood, and Catherine Valentine, general counsel for the San Jose-based Planned Parenthood Mar Monte, all contributed the primary maximum of $2,700 to Clinton's campaign. Clinton led the entire presidential field with more than $46 million in total fundraising.
The FEC disclosures were released one day after video emerged of a top doctor from Planned Parenthood discussing the harvesting of organs from aborted babies. The non-profit Center for Medical Progress released footage of a nearly three-hour lunch two activists had with Dr. Deborah Nucatola, who ate salad and sipped wine during the conversation.
The organization's president, Cecile Richards, apologized on Thursday for Nucatola's tone while defending the practice.
Nearly every Republican candidate, including the pro-choice former New York governor George Pataki, condemned the video and Planned Parenthood following the release. No Democratic candidate for president has publicly addressed the controversy.
Planned Parenthood has supported the Democratic party in the past. It poured $18 million into outside spending groups in 2014 and 2012, according to the Center for Responsive Politics. Most of its nearly $6 million in direct contributions since 1990 have gone to Democrats. Every Democratic candidate except for Webb has benefitted from this cash influx at the federal level. Sanders and Chafee have received nearly $25,000 combined over the course of their careers.
The Washington Free Beacon reached out to the Clinton campaign asking whether the cash-rich frontrunner planned on returning Planned Parenthood donations, as she did contributions from the pornographer Larry Flynt. A spokesman did not respond to a request for comment.

Isn't going to happen as long as Obama is president or if Hillary gets elected in 2106.

Planned Parenthood receives a significant amount of tax payer funds each and every year. Like any other organization that is provided such funding, Planned Parenthood, its employee's and its subsidiaries should NOT be able to contribute to any candidates campaign in the name of tht organization. Every organization that receives government funding, including groups like La RAZA, et al, should be prohibited from making political donations and from lobbying the government. When they do, they essentially use tax payer funds to promote their own interests and the tax payers who may disagree with the organizations stated mission and goals is required to support something that they oppose. This is a scam which the politically corrupt promote and support. It's got to stop.

Luke Bryan is searching for a new co-host of the Academy of Country Music Awards following news his pal Blake Shelton has decided not to return for next year's (16) ceremony.
The country music stars have been emceeing the prizegiving together since 2013, but in a video posted by the awards organisation on Monday (14Dec15), Bryan reveals Shelton will not be joining him for the 51st annual ceremony.
In the video, Bryan tells a mystery man behind the counter of a bar, "I'll tell ya what I really need, a new co-host for the ACM Awards. Somebody that loves country music, somebody that I'm a little better lookin' than - kinda like last year. Somebody who wants to dance, sing, party in Vegas. There's gotta be somebody out there."
Editors at Taste Of Country suggest Dierks Bentley has been tapped to replace Shelton as presenter, since the mystery bartender sounds just like the singer.
Before teaming up with Bryan, Shelton co-hosted the ACM Awards with Reba McEntire in 2011 and 2012.
The 2016 ACM Awards will take place at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas on 3 April (16).

Named by the Great National Leader Ataturk after the Hittite Civilization, which began mining activities in the world as far back as 6,000 BC living and excelling at mining on the bountiful lands of Anatolia, Eti Maden has entered its 76th year of operations.
Etibank was established with a capital of 20 million Turkish Lira on the 14th of June 1935, in the aftermath of the global financial crisis and the Turkish War of Liberation of the early 1900's as a drive of modern industrialization that brought together natural resources and the concept of finance. The company was restructured on 1/5/1998 as Eti Holding Inc. and later became Eti Maden General Directorate on 31/1/2004. The company has a capital of 100 million TL as of the end of 2010.
Eti Maden is designated by parliamentary decree to make the best use of Turkey's natural resources and to provide the highest benefit to the Turkish economy. True to its original mission, the company has successfully mined boron ore that is one of Turkey's most important mineral resources and has transformed it into high added value boron products to become the leader in the global boron market.

This is our third Pinot grigio and is made from 80% King Valley/local fruitf and 20% from our own vineyards. These were picked a little earlier than for our Estate gris and so retains more natural acidity and more delicacy. The grapes were whole bunch pressed and after a natural wild yeast fermentation the wine spent a further six months on lees in stainless steel.
FOOD It's ideal with mussels, shellfish and chilli prawns.
CELLARING should be enjoyed up until 2018.

You Can't Detect What You Can't See: Illuminating the Entire Kill Chain
On-Demand Webinar
Online collaboration tools that let you work with far-flung co-workers and clients have moved into the mainstream of small business computing in the last few years. And while most small business owners understand why they should be using apps like Web, audio, and video conferencing; document sharing; white boarding, etc., many need help choosing which tools to use.
"There are so many options now, it's hard to weed through them all," says David Corcoran, president of Batipi Inc., a consulting firm that specializes in helping small and medium businesses select and implement collaboration solutions.
You won't find many one-size-fits-all, omnibus solutions. HyperOffice is about the only one that even attempts to be everything to everybody, Corcoran says. (HyperOffice by the way is about to launch a completely revamped version of its service aimed at small businesses.)
"What we've found is that having the best-of-breed product suited to clients' specific needs is more effective [than an all-in-one solution]," he says.
Corcoran identifies several distinct types of software-as-a-service (SaaS) tools that help enable online collaboration.
Aaron Hay, a research manager at Info-Tech Research Group, a high-tech research and consulting firm, adds another important category: white boarding and brainstorming solutions such as Twiddla and MindMeister. These tools and services allow groups to meet online for free-form brainstorming sessions and to record resulting notes and diagrams.

Road to Bonneville Raceway, Tooele County, Utah
Select your print and framing options
Artist Statement
A major part of my life's work has been spent behind the wheel driving down one road or another. The key here: just to see what might turn up; what might next put me behind the lens. My overall objective: looking at the lay of the land and scoping out what all we've put on it; getting a handle on the defining characteristics of American regions. This task is now pushing four decades. I've worked at least once in every state. I've logged 1000x1000s of miles; the images in my archive number upwards of 30,000 or so. My inventory of subject matter-my Table of Contents-is multiphasic and ever expanding. The category "The Road" is amply represented-it is, obviously, what I am most often looking at and focusing upon. Indeed, it often is the only real subject on hand. So there you go. Here's a road for you. In Utah. A storm is passing through. I stopped in a sea of salt and looked straight ahead.

"Tea. Earl Grey. Hot." If you've ever watched Star Trek: The Next Generation, you'll be familiar with the scenario of Captain Picard ordering his favourite hot beverage. The matter replicator has long been a dream of science fiction but, like so many science fiction ideas, it's on its way to becoming reality.
Ok, so we might be a long way off making cups of tea out of thin air but NASA's plan to install a 3D printer on the International Space Station will make life in outer space that bit easier. We first covered this topic in January 2012 in our article, The Future of 3D Printing. Following extensive tests, including printing in zero gravity, the 3D printer is due to be sent to the ISS in June 2014.
On the space station, as anywhere else, parts sometimes wear out, break or even get lost. Re-supplying the ISS is a costly and time consuming with astronauts having to wait weeks or even months for replacement parts to be sent from Earth.
With a 3D printer on the station, replacement parts can be manufactured in a matter of hours. If necessary, several prototypes can be produced and tested before the finished product is built; a process which would be laborious and ruinously expensive using any other method.
The printer will be programmed with pre-loaded designs for commonly used items, with new designs uploaded as and when needed. At just a foot square and capable of producing only plastic objects, the 3D printer will have its limitations. However, if it proves successful, NASA will undoubtedly develop machines capable of producing much larger and more complex objects.
One such device could be a laser sintering machine, which can effectively 3D print metallic objects. It's not too much of a stretch to imagine that, in the near future, entire spacecraft or space stations could be 3D printed and assembled in orbit.
To see the 3D printer being put through its paces in zero gravity, check out the video below:

During the past century, the United States and other countries have spent trillions of dollars on researching all kinds of projects ranging from underwater machines to far-reaching satellites. Some of the most impressive projects require a hefty amount of money in order to adequately reach the desired result. In this article, we'll go over 18 of the most expensive projects in the field of science and technology.
Some of the world's most famous technology companies like NASA and Google are working on a supercomputer faster than any of the currently existing technology. In fact, the project is estimated to cost approximately $15 million, reflecting the high price of the project.
The Viking Program – which cost around $3.8 billion – was a project carried out by NASA to send two large satellites onto Mars, which then sent real-life images of the Red Planet back to Earth. This astonishing achievement which took place in 1976 is one of the most expensive projects in North American history.
With a price tag of $1.3 billion, the Herschel Space Observatory is one of the most expensive experiments carried out by ESA. Built for scientific purposes, the observatory has played an important role in understanding our universe with better detail.
In 2009 a company borrowed a large amount of money from the government representing a total sum of over $1.6 billion in order to produce a more efficient type of solar panel. The long-term objective is to create a more accessible source of energy to power the needs of homes and businesses.
Consisting of an unmanned satellite, the Caseeini-Huygens Mission was the first successful attempt at landing outside our solar system. It came with a hefty price tag too, costing over $3.2 billion. The remarkable results make up for the expensive project.
This project, which is composed by a large laser, aims to discover a new source of renewable energy to power the future needs of the world. With a cost of $3.5 billion, it is also one of the most expensive projects in this field.
IBM – one of the country's largest technology firms – has spent more than $900 million researching a new project called Watson, which aims to be able to diagnose patients without the need of a medical doctor. If completed, it would represent a large achievement in human civilization.
With a hefty price tag of $12.8 billion, the International Fusion Experiment is one of the largest energy-related projects. It is being funded by some of the richest countries in the world including China, the USA and Japan. Its objective is to discover a new source of renewable energy.
This large telescope which is being built by NASA and aimed for completion in 2018 will cost more than $8.7 billion, making it one of the largest and most expensive telescopes ever built. Once completed, it will be able to peer deep into the universe.
Between 1973 and 1979 this impressive space station orbited around Earth, until an unfortunate accident took place, destroying the satellite in the process. The operation cost around $11 billion, implying a large burden for NASA.
In 2012, NASA sent the Curiosity robot to Mars to evaluate the possibility of human life on the planet. So far, the mission has cost around $2.5 billion, making it cheaper than other similar projects but still quite expensive all things considered.
This massive project has cost more than $2 billion, forcing the Government to abandon its completion. It was planned to be built in Texas, and in fact was already partially completed when it had to be abandoned.
This massive project aims to achieve a closer understanding of the Earth's oceans, which until now have been left mostly untouched. With a price tag of $76 million, this project will be largely financed by the US Government.
With an annual cost of $4.9 billion, cancer research represents one of the largest ongoing scientific projects. Despite the enormous efforts, a cure has yet to be found, even though significant progress is constantly being made.
When the US administration found out the Nazis were aiming to create weapons of mass destruction, it responded by initiating the The Manhattan Project, which cost over $23 billion (adjusted for inflation). In 1945, the USA dropped the first atomic bomb on Japan.
With a total cost of $150 billion, the International Space Station is one of humanities' greatest achievements in the field of science. Since the year 2000, scientists have used the facility to conduct a wide range of experiments, helping us to better understand our world.
This colossal collider spans over 17 miles in length and is equally impressive when it comes to its capacity. It has already discovered the Higgs Boson particle and is working on discovering more secrets about our world.
The Apollo Project – which ran from 1966 to 1972 – cost over $110 billion, making it a massive project for its time. However, it achieved some remarkable results, including the first ever moon landing in 1969. Since then, over 20 landings have taken place.

Greater Western Sydney have been forced to work extremely hard to beat Gold Coast and keep alive their AFL top-two hopes.
The Giants were hoping for a percentage-boosting victory over the injury-hit Suns on Saturday at Metricon Stadium but had to eke out a 14.8 (92) to 13.6 (84) win.
Gold Coast held a slender lead late in the fourth quarter but back-to-back goals by Jeremy Cameron and Toby Greene with five minutes to go secured the points for the visitors.
Cameron kicked four goals for the Giants, while Green, the excellent Steve Johnson and Jonathan Patton had two majors each.
Key defender Steven May was superb for the Suns, picking up 27 disposals and 14 marks, while Tom Lynch remains firmly in the Coleman Medal race after a four-goal haul.
Youngster Jarrod Garlett was everywhere in the forward line for the Suns, picking up 18 disposals and a goal.
Brandon Matera and Ryan Davis also chipped in with two majors for the hosts.
The Suns started brightly, kicking the first three goals of the match to show the Giants they were in for a match.
The Giants kept themselves close but had to wait until late in the second term before a Greene behind gave them the lead.
Not until the third term did they get more than a point ahead of the Suns, with a Rory Lobb goal putting the visitors seven points clear.
Within minutes though, the Suns had hit back, goals from Peter Wright and Davis to finish the third term ensuring the home team held a six-point margin at the final turn.
Gold Coast's effort was particularly brave, given midfielder Alex Sexton failed to finish the match with a left thigh injury, while ruckman Tim Nicholls spent much of the game limping on an injured knee.
The Giants host West Coast next week in what looms as a crucial battle in the race for a top-two spot and the Suns are away at bottom-placed Essendon.

2013 was an interesting year for television technology. LG's long-awaited 55-inch OLED television started shipping, albeit with a curved screen. Not long after, Samsung announced their 55-inch curved OLED TV, but at a $6,000 discount to LG. Later in the year, Sony announced a curved 4K LCD TV, and rumors started that we'd see more such products in Las Vegas.
Did we ever! Not only did LG and Samsung showcase curved LCDs and OLEDs, so did Toshiba, Sony, Konka, Changhong, Hisense, and TCL. And three companies (LG, Samsung, and Toshiba) unveiled 21:9 aspect ratio curved 4K LCD TVs (there's a mouthful!), all in a 105-inch diagonal size. (No word on where the LCD panel or panels come from).
We also were treated to newer, bigger sizes. 84 inches used to impress; now we have 95 inches, 98 inches, 105 inches, 110 inches, and even 120 inches. Yep, Vizio (of all people) exhibited a 120-inch LCD TV in their suite at the Wynn, and it uses ASV glass from Sharp's Gen 10 in Sakai, Japan.
Want high dynamic range? Dolby was there to promote it, and we also saw it in the Vizio and Sharp booths. How about big OLEDs? LG has a 77-inch curved cut with 4K resolution that is currently the world's largest OLED TV. (Wait a few months; that'll change.) Quantum dots? Sony's had them for a year, but now several Chinese manufacturers are buying in, as I saw in the QD Vision suite.
Just like tablets a few years back, large and curved TVs went from "Wow!" to "So what?" in the matter of a few hours at the show. What really amazed me is that almost every breakthrough TV product unveiled by Samsung and LG was also found in the booths of the Chinese TV manufacturers – and they didn't nearly make as much noise about it.
Some TV manufacturers made more of an impression by what they didn't show. Panasonic's emphasis this year was clearly on commercial applications of display technology. We know that Panasonic shut down plasma panel and TV production at the end of December. What we don't know are Panasonic's plans for consumer television in general, as they didn't show a formal line-up of LCD TVs in Las Vegas – just applications for 4K displays.
The significance of this omission can't be understated. Panasonic finally reversed years of losses in 2013, losses that were largely attributed to television operations. While Panasonic had decent worldwide TV market share in 2013 (about 6%), they may have finally seen the writing on the wall. That would explain their emphasis on battery and energy technologies, automotive tech, and white goods / appliances at the show.
Toshiba has struggled with substantial losses in both computers and television. As has been documented in Display Daily, the company is finally addressing profitability in a more hard-nosed fashion. And if they needed any convincing, the enormous booths of Chinese TV manufacturers that were stuffed full of 4K product probably did the trick.
That leaves Sony and Sharp. The former had a rather pedestrian booth at the show, focusing more on applications and smaller electronics (including gaming) than televisions. There weren't any ground-breaking tech demos in Sony land this year, aside from curved 4K LCDs. Aside from one barely profitable quarter earlier last year, Sony continues to pile up losses in consumer TV sales and veteran financial analysts ramp up their call for the company to cut its losses and get out.
Sharp, on the other hand, may have more lives than a cat. The company has set record for financial losses the past few years and required cash infusions from Qualcomm and Samsung to keep their doors open in 2013. Yet, they managed to eke out a small profit in consumer televisions midway through the year.
While not out of the woods yet, Sharp is plowing forward with an emphasis on big TVs (60 inches and up). They unveiled four new lines – Aquos 2K, Quattron, Quattron+, and Aquos Ultra HD. We've heard the Quattron story before, but Quattron+ is something new and intriguing: Multiple addressing of horizontal and vertical sub pixels to achieve higher resolution than 2K, even though the Quattron RGBY matrix is still a 2K array.
Sharp is also making a big deal out of mastering IGZO manufacturing. (LG also uses IGZO in its 4K OLED TVs.) While IGZO yields are still challenging, the technology does offer many advantages over amorphous silicon and low-temperature polysilicon – not the least of which is reduced power consumption.
So I left Las Vegas after 3.5 days with the following insights. (1) If we haven't seen the sunset of the Japanese television industry, we're very close to S-Day. (2) There really isn't anything new under the sun, television-wise, that the Chinese brands don't also have. (3) Large LCDs will migrate exclusively to 4K panel resolution within 2-3 years.
Finally, (4): Televisions just don't generate much buzz anymore, particularly when you look at all of the tablets, smartphones, and personal electronic displays that were showcased at CES.
EDITOR'S NOTE: Look for more coverage of CES shortly.

Our daily roundup of retirement news your clients may be thinking about.
Rethinking your client's retirement nest egg
People who have prepared well for their retirement may still run out of funds in their golden years, if they fail to create a budget or they underestimate the funds they need, according to this article on Kiplinger. Retirees with sizeable savings may also outlive their nest egg, as they may have a longer life span, long-term care becomes more expensive, or the sequence of returns takes a toll on their retirement funds. Employees can ensure that their nest egg will last by creating a very good budget that accounts for their desired lifestyle, inflation, market volatility, increased longevity and long-term care.
Losing sleep over retirement worries?
Two recent surveys have found that many Americans are concerned about their retirement prospects, according to this article on Washington Post. Based on a poll by Ramsey Solutions, 56% of people are losing sleep over their golden years. In a survey by Schwab Retirement Plan Services, saving enough for retirement is a top financial stress for 40% of the respondents, which include millennials. "With so many competing obligations and priorities, it's natural for people to worry about whether they're saving enough for retirement," says an expert with Schwab. "Roughly nine of 10 respondents told us they are relying mostly on themselves to finance retirement."
4 ways seniors are leaving money on the table
Seniors leave free money on the table when they make poor decisions regarding Social Security benefits, according to this article on Aol.com. Many seniors also lose money if they don't plan on how to tap into their retirement savings and if they adopt an overly conservative approach to investing. Retirement plans allow catch-up contributions for participants aged 50 and older, but many of them do not make the most of this opportunity.
How one couple saved $1 million in 4 years to retire by age 43
A couple has saved at least $1 million in four years and is on track to retire at the age of 43, according to this article on CNBC. They determined the exact savings they need to secure a comfortable retirement, reduced their spending, and downsized to free up more money to add to their nest egg. The couple also boost their income by working on the side and making smart investments. "I learned that you don't need a lot of money. My quality of life has not changed since we became laser-focused on cutting out our expenses. I don't need the cable TV. ... I don't need a super-expensive phone plan," the wife says.
Social Security drops its texting requirement
The Social Security Administration has removed a measure on its website that requires people to enter a security code sent to their cellphones so they can access their personal accounts, according to this article on Money. "Our aggressive implementation inconvenienced or restricted access to some of our account holders," says a spokeswoman for the agency. "We are listening to the public's concerns and are responding by temporarily rolling back this mandate."

The past view weeks I have been insanely obsessed with listening to Dave Matthews!!! Don't ask me my favorite song because honesty it changes hourly. Between: Too Much, American Baby, Gaucho, Grey Street, and If Only, my day is ever revolving sets of emotions and contemplations. So moral of why this is happening: I'M GOING TO THE GORGE AND BUYING MY TICKET IN THE MORNING!!!
Secondly I got my letter yesterday that I have been selected to be in an 3 hour interview for nursing school in Oregon!!! This is really a curveball because just at the beginning of this week I changed my major (again) to something different. I am again go to reiterate that life in America has too many choices.
