NEW YORK — Jadeveon Clowney just wants it to be over already.
The NFL's first May draft gave everyone a little more time to critique the prospects and try to figure out who is going where and when.
No player has been more scrutinized than Clowney, the defensive end from South Carolina whose every move – on and off the field – has been analyzed since he ended his sophomore season with a helmet-removing hit against Michigan.
"I've been tired of it. I wish the draft was two or three weeks ago," Clowney said Wednesday after playing flag football with grammar-school kids at the NFL's Play 60 festival at a park on the west side of Manhattan.
The Houston Texans have the first pick and Clowney could be their guy. Or maybe they'll take a quarterback, such as Johnny Manziel. Or maybe they'll trade the pick.
The NFL has given fans two extra weeks to ponder these questions. The draft is usually held in April, but some scheduling conflicts at Radio City Music Hall caused the NFL to push it back. Commissioner Roger Goodell said that it's too soon to say whether May drafts are here to stay.
This year's draft finally gets underway Thursday night, Day 1 of the three-day, made-for-TV marathon. Rounds 2 and 3 are Friday night. It concludes with four rounds Saturday, when there will likely be more intrigue than usual. Missouri linebacker Michael Sam, who made public that he is gay back in February, is projected to be a possible late-round selection. The NFL has never had an openly gay player. Sam is trying to be the first, though he might have to get there as an undrafted free agent.
But first, the Texans are on the clock. Will they take Clowney?
"Man, I don't know," the 266-pound pass rusher said. "Do you know?"
Clowney looked NFL-ready after a spectacular sophomore season, when he had 13 sacks and was Southeastern Conference defensive player of the year. NFL rules state otherwise. Players must be three years removed from high school to be draft eligible.
Clowney's junior season fell short of crazy expectations. He had some injuries. Opponents game-planned to neutralize him. His play was spotty and his work ethic was questioned after he suddenly went to his coach and pulled himself from a game.
"It's been crazy, everybody telling when you're going to go in the draft," he said. "What your weakness is. What your strength is. A lot of criticism against all the players. It's just something you got to take on."
Clowney took it on at the combine and his pro day workout at South Carolina. He wowed scouts with the speed and agility of a running back and placed himself firmly at the top of just about every mock draft.
Still, it's not a foregone conclusion the Texans will take him.
Houston needs a quarterback and new coach Bill O'Brien has said he plans to add one during this draft. Many fans in southeast Texas would like it to be Manziel, the 2012 Heisman Trophy winner and native Texan who played for Texas A&M. If there is one player who can relate to the scrutiny Clowney has faced, it's Johnny Football.
Manziel's character has been questioned after having a brush with the law and another with the NCAA during his time at A&M. And he's had his heavy-on-improvisation style dissected by scouts. He's also a little short by NFL quarterback standards, just under 6-feet. Still, his play was so sensational he could end up as a top-five pick.
"I don't care if I'm No. 1 or 200, I just want to play," Manziel said.
It is doubtful Manziel will have to wait that long. He could be the first quarterback off the board.
Or maybe that'll be Central Florida's Blake Bortles. He looks the part of the classic NFL quarterback at 6-foot-5, 232 pounds. He's nimble, too, but also a late-bloomer.
Then there's Louisville quarterback Teddy Bridgewater, who many figured would challenge to be the No. 1 overall pick. He apparently slipped out of favor during the postseason draft process. Small hands, a narrow frame and an underwhelming pro day combined to make Bridgewater no sure thing to be taken in the first round. At least that's what the so-called experts say. But who knows how seriously to take that?
"You try not to pay attention to what's being said, but at the end of the day, I'm human," Bridgewater said. "I was off Twitter for a while because you know that's probably the easiest way to see what's being said about you. Stay away from the internet. Wasn't watching ESPN, NFL Network."
All the speculation ends soon.
"I'm just ready, man," Clowney said, speaking for just about everybody.

De-evolution for eBooks Platform? – May 2015 M&A Activity
ProQuest, the world-class provider of digital content to libraries and researchers announced its commitment to provide printed copies of books with its acquisition of Coutts Information Service from the global book distributor and on-demand printer, Ingram Content Group. As part of the deal, ProQuest will now deliver its content in "e and p" format through an ongoing relationship with Ingram.
ProQuest traces its history back to 1872, when R.R. Bowker launched Publishers Weekly. The company has evolved to become a mammoth repository and global provider of digital content: with over 90,000 qualified sources, 6 billion digital pages spanning six centuries, the world's largest collection of academic dissertations and thesis, in excess of 20 million scanned pages of global, national, regional and specialty newspapers, more than 450,000 books, scores of scholarly journals, and unique digitized collections from the world's great museums and libraries, as well as archives from organizations and other sources such as the Associated Press. The company provides this digitized content to libraries and serious corporate, government, academic, professional and other researchers through a variety of automated online search and document management platforms.
It's clear that ProQuest is a great home and superbly well-suited strategic buyer for Coutts Information Services, which through its MyiLibrary and Oasis platforms offers access to more than 13 million print titles and over half a million ebook titles. However, in a nod to the more classic form of the book, ink-on-paper, ProQuest will also offer access to Ingram's extensive inventory of printed books and the ability to order titles in printed form through Ingram's on-demand print and delivery network. Maybe it's not de-evolution after all, rather an enlightened co-evolution of "e and p" books.
Commercial Printing
Direct mail combined with variable data printing technology has proven to be an attractive recipe for acquisitions in the commercial printing segment. Chicago-based Vision Integrated Graphics announced the acquisition of direct marketing printer and lettershop Tobe Direct, resulting in a company with total revenues now in excess of $70 million. This is not a "tuck-in" transaction to rationalize overcapacity; Vision Integrated Graphics committed to retain Tobe's location and all of its employees, and will now have four locations around Chicago.

A recent Nebraska law banned abortions before 20 weeks because, it claimed, that's when fetuses feel pain. But British research finds that fetuses can't feel pain before 24 weeks — and probably don't feel it after that either.
According to the Telegraph, Britain's Royal College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists has found that nerve endings in the fetal brain aren't developed enough before 24 weeks to signal any pain. Thus, says the College's report, "It can be concluded that the foetus cannot experience pain in any sense prior to this gestation." The College also found that the womb environment has a sedating effect on the fetus, and so anesthetics for abortion (which the House once considered mandating, and some states require that doctors offer) or fetal surgery aren't necessary — and may even be harmful.
In New Scientist, RCOG chair Alan Templeton specifically addressed the specious science behind Nebraska's 20-week law. That law was based on a fetus's observed reflex responses to pain, but Templeton says, "There are indeed reflex responses, but in our view, because the nerves are not wired up to the cortex, they are reflex actions without experience of pain." It's no surprise that the Nebraska law and others of its ilk aren't supported by research, since they're really intended to chip away at abortion rights. In response to the RCOG report, a spokesman for British Prime Minister David Cameron says he will "continue to be guided by the science on the matter." If only anti-choicers would do the same.

Buffalo, NY – Jason Pominville followed up a two-goal performance in regulation with the shootout winner, as the suddenly surging Buffalo Sabres topped the New Jersey Devils, 4-3, at First Niagara Center.
After the Sabres failed on two power-play chances - albeit one was abbreviated - in overtime, Pominville snapped a shot past the glove of New Jersey goaltender Johan Hedberg to begin the tiebreaker.
Ilya Kovalchuk, playing in his 800th NHL game, then missed the net with Buffalo's Ryan Miller down and out of position.
The Sabres' second shooter, Tyler Ennis, beat Hedberg on the blocker side to start the second round, meaning it was up to Adam Henrique, who was involved in a skirmish with Ennis at the end of overtime, to extend the shootout.
Henrique had scored on a shorthanded breakaway, the first of four third-period goals between the teams, but Miller prevailed the second time around and sealed Buffalo's third straight win with a glove save.
Miller finished with 28 saves for the Sabres, who snapped a three-game home skid.
Hedberg made 20 saves for a New Jersey club that has lost four in a row.
"I thought we played well last game, it just didn't go our way. I thought we carried that into tonight for parts of the game," Henrique said.
Each team rallied from a one-goal deficit in a back-and-forth third period that began with Buffalo on a power play.
Henrique put New Jersey up 2-1 at the 1:21 mark, but Pominville tapped in a Cody Hodgson's cross-ice pass for the equalizer at 3:10.
"We're getting more resilient as a team now and I think that's a good sign for us," said Buffalo interim head coach Ron Rolston.
Jochen Hecht then gave the Sabres a 3-2 lead at 9:47. He collected Mikhail Grigorenko's pass from behind the net and flipped a backhander that bounced in off the back of Hedberg.
The Devils, like the Sabres did when they fell behind, had a quick response, as an uncovered Andrei Loktionov took a backhand feed from Stefan Matteau and slid the puck past Miller's right pad at 11:22.
The ice was tilted in favor of the Devils, who owned a sizeable shot advantage when Buffalo defenseman Tyler Myers went off for cross-checking at the 7:02 mark of the second period.
New Jersey, however, surrendered a shorthanded goal 15 seconds into subsequent power play.
Pominville scored after Hodgson emerged with possession following a puck battle and fed him a pass from below the icing line for a shot from the right circle.
The Devils pulled even shortly after Myers' penalty expired. Stephen Gionta worked the puck to the point and Mark Fayne fired a shot that wound up going in off Steve Bernier at 9:24.
Game Notes
Buffalo played without leading point-getter Thomas Vanek (upper-body injury) ... Sabres forward Brian Flynn made his NHL debut after being called up from the Rochester Americans of the AHL on Friday ... The Devils fell to 0-0-4 against the Northeast Division this season.

Family Favorite Artichokes with Dipping Sauce
What is the food that you have the most fun eating? Watermelon comes to mind, so does cotton candy, but at our house, our favorite is artichokes. They are wonderfully messy and a good excuse to dip into warm butter with lemon or perhaps this recipe.
We don't need much of a nudge to do this. We love their fresh, clean taste. Something about plucking the leaves off, dipping them into sauce and getting their meaty goodness by scraping them between your teeth appeals to us. It's tasty, fun, easy and casual. We don't need much of a nudge to do this, just their appearance in the spring.
If you haven't tried them because they seem like too much work…..think again. At our house, we don't do anything but trim the ends and outer leaves and simmer covered till the leaves easily pull away from the core. No special trimming, no coring….we just stop when we get to the choke….not as beautiful, but very easy.
Hope your tempted to try them as an appetizer for your Sunday supper this week.
Family Favorite Dipping Sauce
Yield: 4 servings
Prep Time: 5 minutes
Cook Time: 30 minutes
Total Time: 35 minutes
1 large artichoke or 4 small ones
1/4 cup olive oil
2 medium cloves garlic
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
2 tablespoons grated parmesan cheese
Salt and pepper to taste
Pour olive oil into a small bowl. Using a garlic press, press the garlic into the bowl and let it sit for 10 minutes. Using a strainer, strain the garlic from the olive oil.
Into olive oil, whisk fresh lemon juice, grated parmesan cheese, salt and pepper. Serve with warm artichokes.

Need for Speed Movie: Dissecting the Star Cars
Behind the Scenes: What Makes the Cars of "NFS" Tick?
Related Video
It's a cool, sunny April morning, and in a little less than six months from this day, the runaway hit that is the AMC TV show "Breaking Bad" will reach its finale. But wait, there's Jesse Pinkman in front of us! Although today the actor who plays Jesse -- Aaron Paul – is inhabiting a character named Tobey Marshall of the recently released Need for Speed movie. The Emmy winner also appears to be sitting in a Koenigsegg Agera R. Except, in reality, he isn't.
Nearly a year ago, we rolled into California's spectacularly forested Mendocino County for an invitation-only peek at the Need for Speed movie set. Need for Speed, which will be in theaters March 14, is named for the long-running video-game franchise. The movie involves a cross-country race loaded with exotic, eye-catching cars and fast driving. The film is not based on any particular Need for Speed game, though gamers will note the nation-spanning marathon parallels Need for Speed: The Run (2011). At this time, the crew is seven days into shooting, with around another 60 days ahead. From Mendocino County, it'll caravan on to Georgia, Detroit, and Moab, Utah.
Read about the Ford Mustang's role in the Need for Speed movie HERE.
Today, director Scott Waugh and his team are capturing the Need for Speed ending near the Point Arena lighthouse, a historic landmark. In the scene: a Lamborghini Sesto Elemento that looks quite villainous and the Agera R. One of these cars is about to be dramatically flipped.
Movies with cars as stars would be impossibly pricey to produce if several copies of hyper-rare, expensive, or priceless machinery were needed. Enter movie magic. Chassis sleds are brought in, exterior specifications are sourced from manufacturers, models are mocked up, replica bodywork is affixed, and voila. Cue destruction and mayhem. Underneath the relatively convincing "sheetmetal" (don't look too closely at the details), a high level of mechanical commonality ensures cameras don't stop rolling because a picture car isn't working come call time. Picture car coordinator Steve Mann gives a rundown of some of the other cars assembled for "Need for Speed." Bugatti Veyron Super Sport, Spano GTA, Saleen S7, McLaren P1, '69 Torino, '66 GTO, '68 Camaro, Porsche 944, BMW 3.0. Two of each was requested, except for the BMW (only one was specified). Four Koenigseggs and three Lambos were made.
Now imagine if they were all real-real and you were the head mechanic. But instead of crying yourself to sleep every night after trying to memorize multiple service manuals, you would only really need to know about the LS3 V-8. The engine of the Chevrolet Camaro SS, SS sedan, and C6 Corvette is popular in the Need for Speed garage, finding a home in many a sled. MagnaFlow exhausts supply the burbles. Because the different bodywork and their attendant air intakes can affect powertrain cooling from sled to sled, custom cooling solutions for the different cars is not unusual.
Control-arm suspension keeps the tires on the ground and bodies off it. When stunt driver pods are locked in, spring rates can increase to a rock-hard 800-1000 pounds per inch to accommodate the extra weight. For perspective, 100-200 lb/in is considered to be within the street-ready, comfort spectrum for a compact car. Pods resembling skeletal frames sit over the Agera R and Sesto Elemento rear axles, granting full vehicle control suspended by support structures. Each packs another 500 pounds onto each car. The obligatory steering wheel, pedal box, shifter, and seat await the individuals willing to be strapped in.
The individuals driving today (while Paul and costar Dominic Cooper get face time from inside the cars) are 1X and 7X, or all-around good guys Tanner Foust and Rhys Millen, as they're known outside the script. Foust is Paul's stunt double; Millen is Cooper's. They're both ready to do more than 100 mph seated in what are essentially exposed metal chairs, and fly in a pack at more than 80 mph. Director Waugh is all for the old-fashioned, gritty, and honest camerawork the vintage car-movie buffs are always going on about. As more than 10 crew members fuss over the Lambo, preparing it at base camp, and before donning his helmet and rumbling off down Lighthouse Road to shoot the movie's concluding scenes, Millen jokes he's not good-looking enough to be in front of the cameras. So he's a wheelman. A very good one.
Producer and certified car nut John Gatins will have been working on Need For Speed for about four years when the movie opens.

It's hard to get more up close and personal than this – but how does one go about capturing such spectacular photographs?
Screenshots captured from "Car-L meets the lions".
The answer: by strapping a DSLR inside a heavy duty, radio-controlled camera buggy and driving it right up next to a pride of very curious lions.
This was the enterprising approach taken by travel photographer Chris McLennan on a recent shoot in Botswana. He calls his 4x4 camera creation (which was engineered by Carl Hansen) "Car-L." The incredible photoshoot is documented in McLennan's short video "Car-L meets the lions."
I love how private these photos feel. That these lions are clearly wild, battered and scarred from a life lived on the plains of Botswana only adds to the highly personal esthetic. (I found myself particularly transfixed by the lioness with the blind eye.)
McLennan's creation managed to safely photograph a lion, but may have sparked more curiosity in the lionesses than he bargained for. Still, he says Car-L "survived his injuries and is ready for his next adventure." We can't wait to see what he photographs next.
Check out more of McLennan's innovative work on his website.

The game looks solid and (with a little funding polish) could actually pass for an edutainment title. Three of the game's developers have previously worked in different facets of public service. Additional consultation was also provided by professional officers and medics to make 911 Operator's experience as authentic as possible.
MIKE CHUA, Mikeshouts
Any brilliant feature is, you can choose to 'work' as an emergency lines dispatcher in over 8,000 cities, big or small, including New York, London, Moscow, Albuquerque, Ankara, Beirut, Busan, Cleveland, Philadelphia, and even tiny island state like Singapore.

About this project
911 Operator is a game about the difficult work of emergency lines dispatchers. Manage the teams of policeman, medics and fireman to many different cases. Answer emotional calls and try to help people!
We plan to put over 50 different call types in the game - sometimes serious and dramatic, sometimes funny or irritating. Each recorded with emotions, and most often based on true events!
Each dialog has a few different flows, and it is up to you which way will you choose, according to the situation. Will you choose to use the caller to help, or will you tell them to wait for services to arrive? Will they come on time? Will you be able to provide correct First Aid Instructions? Or maybe you should tell the caller that it is not a case for 911?
During the conversations you will have to make hard choices. Sometimes you will have to provide real First Aid Instructions. This job is more difficult than you think, but we hope that you will learn some of the procedures as well.
For example, we covered heart action stop, major injures, childbirth, choking, accidents, drowning and many other medical cases!
Never know when they might be useful in real life!
But this is not all - other calls might be about ongoing crimes, drugs dealing, family abuses. We also covered fires and technical problems (like chemical hazards or people trapped in elevator). You will get confused why and in which situations people can call 911 :)
We made some rocket science to give an option to download and play on ANY REAL CITY in the world, thanks to OpenStreetMaps! Fight the crime and help people near your home in Free Game mode!
Choose any larger city like New York, London, Berlin, Moscow.... or any smaller one like Albuquerque, Kaposvár, Windhuk, Sandomierz. Your choice, it will work, as well as over 8000 other cities!
During the duty mode your job is to answer the calls and dispatch adequate teams to the location, if you have them available. Together with the calls, you also receive other reports either from your teams or other operators. Each Duty represents a day of the operator's work. It takes about 10 minutes to play.
After the Duty mode, you go to the management mode - there you can recruit additional team members, buy vehicles and equipment and watch an after action reports, where you can find out what happened to your callers.
The main statistic of the game is Reputation, which goes up every time you successfully resolve a report, and goes down each time someone dies, criminals escape or you fail to resolve a report in given time.
Another statistic is money - which you can get for special awards (like saving life or by avoiding major failures) or by giving the tickets for each reported minor offenses.
There is a lot of content in the game, and more will come!
In the campaign mode, you will play on different cities like San Francisco or Wachington DC, facing growing threats and more and more challenging tasks. Will you manage to operate 20 teams at once.
Some of the planned missions include: large sport events, protests, international government summit, drug mafia activities, terrorists attacks, natural disasters like earthquakes, floods and fires. Each will have corresponding calls and reports, which you will have to handle correctly in order to advance to next level
We made a great effort to prepare a large, organized list of things that can happen in your city - starting from a cat on a tree, through injuries, fires, bombing and terrorist threats, accidents and natural catastrophes!
Each of those reports require different reaction time, priority, other teams types, number and ordering, as report elements might interlock each other
Each of the emergency services has it's own set of vehicles and equipment, with adequate properties like speed, number of places for criminals or injured, and some additional effects!

Shouldn't the vertical axis be reversed? If the Planck length is the theoretical smallest length, wouldn't most readers expect the smallest value to be lowest on the vertical axis? Thus the log scale line would angle downward, more clearly indicating that the resolution lengthy is getting smaller with time. The way it it is drawn, the first impression might be that the resolution length is increasing, not decreasing. Just a suggestion.

"Shouldn't the vertical axis be reversed?" I would say no. As the smallest resolvable detail shrinks, people refer to resolution as increasing, so a rising line makes sense. Maybe the axis should be denominated in pixels per meter though... Gardnertoo (talk) 15:19, 27 April 2013 (UTC)

"The images get finer as satellite imaging technology improves" - this is wrong; however, I have no idea currently how to rewite the sentence elegantly, maybe someone else does. The Google Maps/Earth finer images do not come from satellites, but are obtained by aerial photography. No commercial satellite can produce such images (maybe military ones come close - just maybe). In fact, Randall has written about that: http://what-if.xkcd.com/32/ 220.127.116.11 13:19, 29 April 2013 (UTC)
"Each tick in the scale represents a resolution improvement by 1000x." Am I being dense, or does the term "log scale" necessarily mean jumps of 10x? 220.127.116.11 20:50, 1 May 2013 (UTC)
- "A simple example [of a logarithmic scale] is a chart whose vertical or horizontal axis has equally spaced increments that are labeled 1, 10, 100, 1000, instead of 1, 2, 3, 4." Taken from wikipedia's article titled "Logarithmic scale". 22.214.171.124 03:40, 16 May 2013 (UTC)
- "Log scale" means that each jump of 10X is an each distance on the paper. It does not mean that there is a tick mark at every jump of 10X. It does not even mean that there are any tick marks. He put one tick mark at every third jump of 10X. One tick mark represents 3 jumps of 10X, for a total of 10X 10X 10X = 1000X.18.104.22.168 23:10, 16 February 2014 (UTC)

Randall is wrong: Google Earth does not gain resolution exponentially, but logistically. Admittedly, that's somewhat less funny. --Jolbucley (talk) 04:31, 29 January 2014 (UTC)

When calculating the probability of multiple events, we must determine whether the events are dependent or independent. The probability of independent events is slightly less complicated than calculating the probability of dependent events. When calculating the probability of independent events, unlike the probability of dependent events, we do not need to take into account the effect of one event occurring on the other.
Finding the probability of independent events. So independent events are events that have no bearing on each other, okay if something happens over here, something happens over there as long as they're not affecting each other they're called independent events, and basically what we do is in order to find the probability of 2 events occurring independently we take the probability of one and multiply it by the probability of the other. So the probability of 2 things happening independently is just the probability of one times the probability of the other.
Okay one classic example for independent probability is basically pulling balls, marbles anything out of a bag okay. And so what we're looking at in this case is we have 2 bags containing marbles, bag a has 7 green and 6 black, bag b has 8 yellow and 4 red. We pick 1 marble from each bag probability that we choose a green and a red. Okay so choosing a marble out of bag a and then choosing a marble out of bag b are completely independent. It doesn't matter what happens out of the first bag, it could result from the second bag are independent from that.
Okay, so what we can do then is just find the probability of picking a green times the probability of a red. I should back up a second and just point out that no colors are duplicated so therefore it's not like we have to worry about having the green from a or b, there's really no overlap potential. Okay, bag a has green and black, bag b has yellow and red there's no overlap going on. Okay, so probability of choosing a green, the only greens we have are in bag a so we just need to find the probability of taking the green out of bag a. There are 7 green and 6 black so that tells me there's 7 green and 13 total. So the probability is just going to be 7 out of 13, the probability of choosing a red. The only reds occur in that second bag so then we have a 4 red out of 12 total chance of picking a red. And then we simply multiply these together 4 out of 12 can be simplified to one third and then we multiply across end up with 7 out of 39.
Okay, so long as you have independent events, events that have no bearing on each other all you have to do is multiply the probabilities together in order to find the probability of them both occurring.

With IVF, Are Fresh or Frozen Embryos Better?
THURSDAY, Jan. 11, 2018 (HealthDay News) — The chances of having a baby after in vitro fertilization (IVF) are similar for most women whether frozen or fresh embryos are used, a new study finds.
In a group of infertile women with normal ovulation, rates of live birth were nearly 49 percent in those who received frozen embryos. Rates were just over 50 percent for women who received fresh embryos, said researchers at Penn State College of Medicine.
The study included more than 2,100 women undergoing their first round of IVF. The treatment involves fertilizing a woman's egg with sperm in a laboratory dish. The resulting embryo is then inserted in the woman's uterus.
Previous research by this team found that women with polycystic ovarian syndrome — abnormal ovulation — fared better with frozen embryos.
But it wasn't clear whether fresh and frozen embryos offered better chances of success in women who ovulate normally, the study authors explained.
"This is an important and distinct finding from our previous IVF study, and it suggests that one type of IVF treatment does not fit all, and treatments should be chosen based on specific patient characteristics," said researcher Richard Legro. He's a professor of obstetrics and gynecology and public health sciences.
Researchers also found that women who received frozen embryos had a lower risk of condition called ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome. This sometimes develops in women undergoing fertility treatment. Serious illness or death can occur in severe cases.
"This study reinforces our previous research by noting that the elective freezing of embryos is safer for all IVF patients… by reducing the risk of ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome," Legro said in a college news release.
The findings were published Jan. 10 in the New England Journal of Medicine.

Register and save the date for ROSANNE final conference
Event on 11th October 2016 to be held at BRRC's research centre in Sterrebeek near Brussels.
Register today to the ROSANNE project's final conference on Tuesday 11th October at project member BRRC's research centre at Fokkersdreef 21, 1933 Sterrebeek (close to Brussels airport).
The conference will present all the project results for skid resistance, noise emission and rolling resistance, as well as common issues concerning texture, reference tyres and reference surfaces and a demonstration of certain techniques used. Click here to see the draft agenda for the event and contact email@example.com for any information.
ROSANNE is a Collaborative project in the Seventh EU Framework Programme which aims at developing/harmonising measurement methods for skid resistance, noise emission and rolling resistance of road pavements as a preparation for standardization. To achieve this, the project will follow the recommendations of key predecessor projects (like TYROSAFE, HERMES, SILVIA, SILENCE and MIRIAM), as well as consider ongoing work in CEN and ISO. The project will develop/improve standards in the field of working group CEN/TC 227/WG 5 and in some cases ISO groups with which CEN cooperates. See http://rosanne-project.eu/ for more details on the project.

According to a Michigan Technological University scientist, solar panels can still be worth the investment, even for those that live in areas with long winters.
It's true that a layer of snow can cause a solar-cell blackout, but there aren't too many locales that have heavy snows for more than a few months during the winter. According to the scientist, snow and solar cells aren't mutually exclusive.
"Sometimes snow actually helps solar cells," says Michigan Tech's Joshua Pearce. He's referring to the albedo effect, when sunlight reflects off snow. It can make a panel generate more electricity in the same way that it gives skiers sunburn on sunny winter days.
With researchers from St. Lawrence College and Queen's University, in Kingston, Ontario, and a team of 20 industry partners, Pearce studied the effect of snow on the Open Solar Outdoors Test Field. They created a computer model to predict how much power generation would decline in various amounts of snow cover and on different types of solar modules mounted at different angles, from flat to steeply pitched. Then they validated their model with data from many of Ontario's huge commercial solar farms.
"In most cases power losses are minimal, even in snowy Canada," Pearce said. However, the group has developed a model that can be used to design the most efficient photovoltaic systems, no matter how much snow is in the area.
Pearce and R. W. Andrews have authored a paper based on a preliminary study, "Prediction of Energy Effects on Photovoltaic Systems Due to Snowfall Events," published in proceedings of the 2012 38th IEEE Photovoltaic Specialists Conference. If you'd like a free copy of the paper, please click here.
This free educational webinar will provide a detailed process for climate-driven "pre-response" in a variety of key areas including: Supply Chain Disruptions, Employee Safety and Productivity, Regulatory and Compliance Risks …and many more areas.

Last week, Adobe announced it would dig a deep hole for its Flash Player, drop in the plug-in, and cover it with dirt by the end of 2020. So will end a technology that, in many ways, made the Web -- even as users, security experts and browser makers took turns whacking it like a piñata at a six-year-old's birthday party.
"We will stop updating and distributing the Flash Player at the end of 2020," Adobe said in a post to its primary blog. The long lead time, the company contended, will give content makers time to complete the transition to Web standards, like HTML5 and WebGL.
The end-of-the-line date is farther to the right on the timeline than one expert expected. Nearly six years ago, just after Adobe declared that it was halting Flash Player development for mobile browsers, Al Hilwa of Gartner predicted that Flash would "continue until 2014 or 2015, depending on how Windows 8 takes off and how touch-based interfaces compete against traditional desktop interfaces."
But the end will come. (Or as Hilwa put it in 2011, "Nothing lives forever.")
Because browsers have been the primary delivery vehicle for Flash content, how they handle the plug-in's demise will be important to users and content creators alike. Each of the top four browser makers -- Apple, Google, Microsoft and Mozilla -- have, to greater or lesser degrees, explained how they're going to sunset Flash.
And maybe, just maybe, take one last lunge at that piñata.
How will Microsoft dead-end Flash in Edge and Internet Explorer? Redmond plans a four-step death for Adobe's once-a-kingpin technology.
Continuing through the rest of this year and into 2018, Edge will ask permission to run Flash "for most sites" the first time that website is visited. (That click-to-run functionality only made it into Edge in March, when Microsoft launched Windows 10's 1703, aka "Creators Update.) Internet Explorer (IE) will allow Flash in all circumstances, as it does now, with no limitation.
At the mid-to-late 2019 mark, both Edge and IE will default to a disabled Flash state. Users will have to manually re-enable Flash in both to view content. Edge will require site-by-site authorization.
By the end of 2020, Flash will be barred from running in Edge or IE. "Users will no longer have any ability to enable or run Flash," said John Hazen, a program manager on the Edge team, in a post to a company blog. (After Jan. 14, 2020 -- the retirement date for Windows 7 -- IE will be supported only in Windows 8.1 and Windows 10.)
How does Google plan to kill Flash in Chrome? Like Microsoft, Google will take it one step at a time.
Since late last year, Chrome has had Flash off by default, and has limited its use to 10 websites -- Amazon, Facebook, YouTube and others -- and then only after user approval.
According to the Flash roadmap posted on the Chromium website -- Chromium is the open-source project that feeds code to Chrome itself -- around July 2018 (and with the debut of Chrome 66), sites that continue to use Flash will require explicit user okay to show that content. That user approval must be given after each browser restart.
A year later -- in July 2019 and with Chrome 76 -- Flash will be disabled by default, even for sites like YouTube and Facebook. However, users will be able to switch on Flash in the Settings screen.
Then, around December 2020 (with Chrome 87), Google will remove all Flash capabilities from its browser, ending a 12-year symbiotic relationship with Adobe's app.
What does Mozilla plan for Firefox? If you've heard this story, stop us.
On Aug. 8 Mozilla will release Firefox 55, which will start the end-game process of erasing Flash. But rather than be told what sites can use Flash, Firefox users get to choose the websites allowed to activate Flash. "Users will have the choice to remember the Flash setting per-site," said Mozilla in its roadmap. The change will reach users next month and in September. (Mozilla typically rolls out major modifications over a longer stretch than other browser makers so that it can, if necessary, halt the process, and limit the damage, if a problem pops up.)
At some point in the second half of 2018, probably in Firefox 61 through Firefox 64, the browser will no longer remember the Flash setting. Users will have to activate the plug-in in each browser session.
In early 2019, Firefox will begin to display a warning on sites that still use Flash, and then, a few months later, Mozilla will disable Flash by default. Users will have to steer to the settings section to activate Flash.
By early 2020, the Flash plug-in will be scrubbed from Firefox. But the Firefox ESR (Extended Support Release), a more static build aimed at enterprises, will support Flash until the end of the year, Mozilla said. When Adobe halts Flash security updates at the end of 2020, Firefox, no matter the version, will refuse to load the plug-in.
Is Apple going to strip Flash from Safari, too The short answer: it almost has already.
Not surprisingly, not after co-founder and former CEO Steve Jobs' 2010 anti-Flash diatribe, Apple has had less to do with Flash, and more to do with kicking it to the curb, than any other operating system or browser maker.
Flash was never allowed on iOS, so Safari on mobile devices has always been a no-Flash zone. And on macOS, formerly OS X, Flash has been an unwelcomed guest for almost as long. Apple stopped bundling Flash in 2010, requiring users to go fetch the plug-in themselves. (Meanwhile, Chrome, and later, Edge, came with Flash baked into those browsers.)
In 2012, Apple was the first to start stripping out-of-date versions of Flash from its browser. A year later, it was the first to save notebook battery juice by freezing Flash content on Web pages until a user clicked to activate. And in 2016, it was the first to disable the Flash plug-in by default.
But Apple, or more accurately the open-source WebKit, the project that pushes code to Safari, had little to say when Adobe announced the 2020 retirement of Flash. "Apple is working with Adobe, industry partners, and developers to complete this transition," a post to the WebKit blog stated.
Neither WebKit or Apple has published a roadmap, even a crude one, to show the milestones toward total Flash annihilation. That's not a shock: Apple doesn't do roadmaps. But if you're a betting person, bet that Safari bans any kind of Flash operability long before do Apple's rivals.

International Incident Averted Over Bike Ticket – August 15, 2012
Kevin L. Hoover
Eye Editor
G STREET – What started as a wrong-way bicycle ticket Thursday, Aug. 2 fell short of becoming an international incident, but did briefly flare as yet another culture war tribal clash.
Around 6:30 a.m. that morning, an Arcata Police officer attempted to stop four bicyclists riding the wrong way down one-way G Street in the 900 block just north of the Plaza. One of the cyclists rode off; three stopped. Two provided identification and were cited for wrong-way riding, an infraction. The woman later identified as Anna Malgorzata Karewicz, refused to provide identification according to APD Lt. Ryan Peterson.
She was arrested on a charge of providing false information to an officer, a misdemeanor, and taken to Humboldt County Jail.
Karewicz, a Polish citizen, turned out to be in the U.S. illegally, her student visa having expired. She was placed on an immigration hold by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE).
A group called "Friends of Ankah" quickly cropped up on indybay.org, a website that "support[s] local, regional and global struggles against exploitation and oppression."
The Friends described Karewicz as "a puppeteer and artist, as well as an "avid community gardener" and "a hardworking and dedicated community member" who volunteers her time with a bicycle collective.
The support group questioned APD's authority to arrest citizens for immigration violations and demanded her release. Protests at the Humboldt County Courthouse were planned, and community supporters enlisted.
One was Pastor Cindy Storrs of the Arcata United Methodist Church. She explained that AUMC is a "connectional" church with what she described as "a built-in expectation that clergy have respect for other ministries."
So when she took a call from a clergywoman in Chicago asking that she look into Karewicz's situation, she did. "I'm somewhat interested as a pastor in the Arcata community on issues of immigration," she said.
Storrs visited Karewicz in jail as the Friends group – reportedly associated with Earth First! – rallied their forces for protests outside the courthouse.
But as the fervor ramped up, it was defused when Karewicz was released on Tuesday, Aug. 7.
It's not over, though. A court hearing was scheduled for Monday, Aug. 13, as the Eye went to press.
Peterson said that APD officers don't act as ICE agents, but have to ascertain the identities of those they stop for infractions. If false information is offered, it becomes something more serious.
"We don't deal with immigration status," Peterson said. "That's not our focus."
Bad bicycling, though, is very much APD's focus. Driving against traffic, he said, is "dangerous for bicyclists and confusing for motorists."

First Data Global Gateway e4 AIM - New Module release
Guest posted a topic in OtherHey everyone, looking for a payment module for First Data Global Gateway E4? I wrote the following module based on their latest Version 12 API, it is for OsCommerce 2.3 but could easily be adjusted to work in 2.2: First Data Global Gateway e4 AIM In their documentation, First Data put out a hack for the Authorize.net SIM module, which works and is all well and fine for those that do not mind their customers leaving the site, but not so great if you want to keep your customer on your site. There was no way I was going to take customers away from my site, especially with some hacked up module, but no one had written a module with advanced integration for OsCommerce yet...well not until now! This new module keeps everything on your site, I have tested it up down and sideways and cannot find any bugs. The instructions are very in depth so setup will be a breeze. I know there were quite a few people looking for this, hope it helps the community as much as the community has helped me. Problems? Message me or post here! :D

1. Outside lights- Set these up on timers so they come on even when you are gone. Also, motion detecting lights are an excellent deterrent and can be installed at a low cost.
2. Cameras are also a good deterrent. Place cameras around outside doors and your yard. Many home improvement stores offer cost-effective products.
3. Alarms are always a good idea. Alarm systems that are connected to a central station will yield the best discount.

1. Gated communities
2. Community security

If you suspect the A-bike you are buying is a counterfeit copy there are a number of steps you can take to check its authenticity.
1) Check the A-bike has all the official logos and stickers in the correct locations, including the important "Distributed by MAYHEM UK LTD" sticker.

Andy Cohen, Queen Latifah Revoke Anderson Cooper's Gay Card
[There was a video here]
Today on "Anderson Live," our favorite Silverfox was joined by the likes of Andy Cohen and Queen Latifah, so it was a pretty gay show, allegedly.
The Queen, who was joined later by Phylicia Rashad, Alfre Woodard and Jill Scott, was on to promote Lifetime's all-black remake of Steel Magnolias. When Anderson revealed he's never seen the 1989 classic, it was total pandhomomonium. Queen Latifah then asked Anderson if he'd seen other gay classics, Terms of Endearment and Beaches. He had not. "Gay card revoked."
Later on in the show, Latifah, Rashad, Woodard and Scott discussed their weakness for Krispy Kreme donuts while filming Steel Magnolias, which premieres on Lifetime this Sunday.
The show concluded with Andy and Anderson riding glitter cannons together into the Croatian sunset.

The Atlanta Hawks are happy to be home after a 3-3 road trip, but they may not be happy to see Wednesday night's opponent.
Atlanta will try to stop a six-game losing streak to the Philadelphia 76ers on Wednesday when the two teams meet at Philips Arena.
But the Hawks are getting the Sixers at the right time. Philly has dropped two straight, 10 of its last 12 and owns an 11-game road losing streak, which is its longest since a 20-game road losing streak from Dec. 1987-Mar. 1988.
Atlanta will just try to get healthy for the Sixers contest. Kyle Korver and Zaza Pachulia both missed the last game of the road trip in Denver on Monday and they are both listed as game-time decisions for Wednesday.
Against the Nuggets, Horford led the road-weary and undermanned Hawks with 17 points. Jeff Teague sprained his ankle, but returned in the loss to score 15 points. Josh Smith also had 15 and that put him over the 10,000-point mark in his NBA career.
The six-game road trip, which started with three consecutive wins and finished with three straight losses, is over and the team feels alright with how it went.
"We come out with a win tonight, six games in 11 days, that would have made it a great road trip," head coach Larry Drew said after Monday's game. "We finished 3-3 on the road trip, so for us, .500 basketball, that'll be a good road trip."
The Sixers did a lot of things well in their 109-101 setback to the Boston Celtics on Tuesday. Philly outscored Boston in the paint (64-38), and forced the Celtics into 22 turnovers, but 11-for-19 3-point shooting from Boston was too much to overcome.
"When you look at the stat sheet and we have 64 points in the paint, 28 second-chance points, 14 fast-break, 30 points off turnovers, you'd think we would win that game," said Sixers coach Doug Collins. "Their 3-point shooting was really the difference. We were minus-18 at the 3-point line."
The Sixers enjoyed a well-balanced attack with seven players in double figures. Thaddeus Young led the way with 19 points and 10 rebounds, then Evan Turner and Jrue Holiday both had 18. Holiday handed out 10 assists and Turner pulled down nine boards and had seven assists.
Despite the nice stat sheet and even distribution, it was yet another loss for the Sixers. They are 7 1/2 games out of the eighth seed in the East and have a road-heavy finale to the season.
Philly begins a three-game road trip on Wednesday with stops in Miami and Orlando on the docket.
The Sixers have won six straight against the Hawks and two in a row at Atlanta.

Back in July, Twitter launched a really nifty analytics dashboard. A bit like Google Analytics for tweets, it allows you to gauge the performance of each and every tweet you sent. How many people saw it? How many of those actually clicked your links?
There was one catch, though: it was only open to advertisers and verified users.
No longer! Now you too can obsess way too hard over the performance of every tweet you send! Hurray!
News of the change comes from Twitter front end engineer Ian Chan:
and this page lurking in Twitter's support base confirms it: the dashboard should now be open to every account that has been open for at least 14 days, isn't restricted/protected/suspended, and (curiously) that primarily tweets in English, French, Japanese, or Spanish.
You can find the newly unlocked analytics dashboard right here.

Implement isStateless in your WOComponent and you will be able to manage the state yourself:
public boolean isStateless() { return true; }
Chuck Hill
There is some fairly OK information on stateless and nonsynchronizing components in Practical WebObjects. In a nutshell you need to use valueForBinding/setValueForBinding to access bound values and implement a public void reset() method that nulls all instance variables. This often requires design changes to your component.
Jean-François Veillette
Sometimes for stateless component, you need to keep variables values between the 3 phases, from takeValueFromRequest all the way to appendToResponse. Since ivars in a stateless component can't handle this case (reset() will be called after each phase), you have to store the information somewhere. Just use context.userInfo dictionary, and put whatever value in there. As the name imply, the value will only be good for this request only.
