If you too give importance to any one's social media profile then you might not be comfortable with Google's this move as not so many people uses Google+, if anyone uses it they were not updating it so frequently as compare to other social media sites like Twitter or Facebook.
In this case a simple service came to help you, some guys has develop a bookmarklet tool which allows you to make a more better and good search, suppose if you were making search for Cooking then Google will reply you with Jamie Oliver's Google+ profile, which has been updated more than 2 months ago.
But if you head to Jamie Oliver's Twitter profile then you will find out that it has been updated almost daily and has more than 10 times followers as compared to Google+. The good thing about this service is that it shows you results from Google itself not from any other source.
It wont use any API or any source, and the search rank decision and algorithm is of Google itself, means you are getting whole results from Google and Google only.
This service just turn People and Page on Google+ to People and Page on Social Web, To use it just drag and place that bookmarlet to your bookmark bar and then make search on Google and when it will show result then click on that Bookmarklet and you will get results from social web.

text: I'm trying to understand what/how/if PyOpenGL deals with multiple versions of OpenGL. For example, if I run PyOpenGL on a machine with OpenGL 1.3 libraries, I should have multitexturing abilities built-in (e.g. glActiveTexture() function). This is specified in the OpenGL 1.3 spec: http://www.opengl.org/developers/documentation/version1_3/glspec13.pdf Another example is that with OpenGL 1.2, the GL_CLAMP_TO_EDGE constant should be defined. However, PyOpenGL doesn't provide these names in the GL module when run on an appropriate system. I wonder if this is simply an oversight which would be easily fixed, a purposeful omission because runtime GL version checking and name exporting may be tricky, or has never been thought about. Incidentally, on linux, I can get around the missing glActiveTexture() function by using ctypes to load the function. (On Windows, I get an error that the arguments must be 4 bytes longer... I haven't tracked this down, though.) Another workaround is that some OpenGL 1.3 drivers (nVidia) still support the multitexturing ARB extension, but others (ATI) don't. This success with ctypes and the continued good things I hear about Pyrex make me wonder if maybe the PyOpenGL build system could be simplified by getting away from SWIG and using these two technologies? So, what's the story? Anyone know?

Judith Becker, Professor Emerita, Ethnomusicology, University of Michigan
November 2014 – Music and emotion are culturally situated and embodied. Any given musical event is situated in a particular historical moment and place, performed by, and listened to, by particular people. Each performer, each listener brings to the event a way of thinking and feeling about the music, a particular expectation of what will/should happen. These expectations are not merely individual but are culturally inflected. I have tried to capture their contribution to the experience of music by introducing the concept of a habitus of listening (Becker 2010), a set of conscious and unconscious musical propensities that affect how an individual reacts to music emotionally. Bourdieu, who coined the term habitus, likened a habitus to "a predisposition, tendency, propensity, or inclination" (Bourdieu 1977). One's own habitus of listening is dependent upon culture, personal history, and the total context of the musical event.
Communal musical events are universally much more prevalent than is solitary music-making. From hunter-gatherers, to agriculturalists, to performers in highly industrialized societies, music performance is predominantly social (Nettl 1992; Ichikawa 1999; Locke 1996; Johnston 1989; Breen 1994). Most peoples of the world play, dance, and listen to music in the presence of others. Thus, emoting at a musical event is also not a solitary event, but one that is shared by other people, often in close physical proximity.
Our appreciation of music is embodied, in the sense that we engage with the music with our whole bodies, not just with our brains. This form of bodily engagement with music is known in the biological sciences as entrainment (David 2002; Clayton, Sager, & Will 2004; Clayton 2007). Entrainment is the synchronization of organisms to an external rhythm, a biological phenomenon that is found among all peoples and can also be found in insects such as fireflies and mosquitos (Gibson & Russel 2006). The simplest external example of human entrainment to music is foot-tapping. Entrainment is not found in any other primates besides humans and is believed to be the basis upon which our musicality arises (Merkel 2000; Patel, Iverson, Bregman, Schulz I. & Schulz, C. 2008; Honing 2012).
Our bodies resonate with both the music and the other bodies that may be present. A sort of contagion, palpable in any successful musical event, takes place between the emotions of the performers and the emotions of the listeners (Davis 2002; Janata, Tomic, & Haberman (2012); Stephan, Walter, & Wilutsky (2014); Feld & Keil 1994). Even after the music has gone silent, physical engagement with remembered sounds can continue. Margulis (2014) described the sensations of participants of a religious ceremony after a session of highly energetic music as follows:
"After an extensive period of joint and repetitive singing, it is almost impossible not to continue to experience the sound of the looped phrases, as well as the tactile sense of the muscle movements involved in producing those phrases. Each individual in the silent gathering persists in having a sense of "being sung," even as no one moves or makes a sound." (Margulis, p. 141)
The coordination of feeling, motion, and emotion characteristic of participatory musical/ dance events, and the social bonding that results from it, have been described as a contributing factor of human evolution (McNeil 1995; Freeman 2000). Mirror neuron research further strengthens the scientific basis for the "community of feeling" that is commonplace at a successful musical performance (Gallese 2001). We both influence and are influenced by the other bodies at a musical event.
The situated, embodied and social nature of musical emotions suggests the need for descriptive distinctions between varieties of the "same" music-induced emotion in different cultures and contexts. For instance, one often hears or reads about music making people 'happy' (Becker 2004, p. 52). And yet, musical 'happiness' has different inflections in different places.
In the city of Yogyakarta, in Central Java, Indonesia, to celebrate the birthday of Mohammed, once a year a grand festival (Grebeg Maulud/ Sekaten) takes place on the palace grounds of the prince. In the extensive courtyards of the palace, two very large and sacred gamelan ensembles are positioned on two raised platforms and play, simultaneously, different pieces, for several hours during each day of the festival. The gamelan ensembles are large and loud. The overlapping, non-coordinated sonorous sounds of the two ensembles contribute to creating a communal state of joy. Ramé is defined as a situation that is "noisy, bustling, alive with activity" (Horne 1974) and that evokes an extroverted, Javanese happiness at being in a large crowd enveloped by multiple sounds that are in not "in harmony."
This musically inspired, communally cross-bodied emotion, ramé, within the context of a noisy religious festival in Central Java contrasts with the Arabic concept of tarab. A concert of traditional Arabic music, the context within which one may experience tarab, is "highly interactive and emotionally charged." Tarab is a quiescent state of happiness that turns one's attention inward, a musically induced state of ecstasy or enchantment that leads listeners to feel that time has come to a standstill (Racy 2003, p. 5-6). Tarab is, like ramé, also highly valued, and when the performer is skilled, also appears to sweep over an audience.
In certain parts of the US Midwest, there are regular gatherings of people of Polish ancestry who get together to dance and listen to polka music (Keil, C. 1995). These gatherings are, in part, a reaffirmation of their cultural ancestry, as well as a chance to reconnect with old friends and relatives. A certain amount of beer-drinking adds to the pleasures. The result is a particular kind of musical emotion called 'polka happiness,' an existential joy that envelops the participants of these events.
"The meaning of life is 'polka happiness'. It's the bliss when Li'l Wallys band is playing from the heart, emotions are overflowing, and people are dancing on the tables." (Keil and Keil 1992)
Polka happiness, tarab and ramé are musically joyful emotions that are both personal and communal, and that spread throughout a crowd, examples of what the cognitive scientist, Nuñez, refers to as "supra-individual biological processes" (Nuñez 1997).
"By supra-individual biological processes I mean those processes relative to life that occur at a level beyond the autonomous beings one is studying . . . The processes intervening in the spread of a cholera epidemic are an example of [supra-individual biological] processes: the phenomenon is manifested in individuals (those who actually get sick are individuals) but it is realized through biological processes that take place beyond the sick individual (i.e. the network of biological processes that make the epidemics possible).
. . . another very simple example: speech accents . . . Accents – although manifested in individuals – have to do with biological processes that are realized at levels that go beyond the individuals, and that explain why speech accents are neither randomly distributed among populations nor are they genetically determined." (Nuñez 1997, p. 155)
The spread of musical emotions at communal musical events is contagious, and like epidemics and language accents, it can also be understood as a biological process. While most music-making world-wide is communal and social (and possibly biological in the sense just described), in the Western industrialized world, music listening is commonly solitary. IPods, earbuds, and headphones are ubiquitous. The listener seems alone, and thus emotionally not affected by the presence of others.
Even so, the music often implies a social context such as a symphony orchestra, a rapper before a live audience, or a DJ at a club. A solitary basement musician producing a multi-track composite performance is likely to mentally invoke a social context. During music making for solitary pleasure, memories of first hearing or first learning the piece (when, where, and from whom) and previous experiences of playing and hearing it are evoked. Musical pieces, like performers, are saturated with contextual, social memory.
An exception may be the solitary iPod listener who consciously creates an alternate reality.
"I've walked that way for – I don't know how many years . . . and it's very boring, so having the music makes me see things that I would see everyday in a kind of new way – like a leaf falling or something. It might be like, "'Wow, a leaf has fallen!" (Herbert 2011, p. 58)
Such uses of musical listening may approximate the kind of consciousness that one might try to cultivate as a Zen practitioner. The claim can be made that isolated, non-social listening is a particular habitus of listening aiming for a heightened, meditative engagement with the world.
How should these reflections impact the scientific study of emotions and music? For one thing, the fact that experiencing music often involves simultaneously participating in a ritual, or some communal, highly interactive social event points to the need for emotion researchers to develop tools for pursuing research on musical emotions outside of the laboratory. The trouble with studying musical emotions exclusively in a laboratory setting where the musical input is recorded and the listener isolated is that we inevitably leave behind the communal element of musical experience that I have argued is so central for understanding the nature and importance of our experience of music.
Experiencing music in isolation stands to experiencing music in a culturally situated setting as inner speech stands to dialogue: although we can get a glimpse of what music and language are for without understanding how they connect people, the full communicative power of both only becomes available once we shift our perspective from the intrapersonal to the interpersonal, and explore music and language as communicative and situated social tools.

Obviously, you bought your D21 because you wanted to buy a variety of features and options and driver satisfaction both impeccably combined into one car, truck, or SUV. Nissan automobile enthusiasts have come to expect a certain level of fuel efficiency when driving their D21 around town. The vehicle in your driveway is head and shoulders above the rest when it comes to all the cars, trucks, and SUVs these days. You picked your D21 because its best-in-class value and long-lasting quality agreed with your nature; so why would you be okay with second best when it comes to great quality auto parts?
Your car or truck has a liquid-cooled engine, and the device that controls the flow of coolant so that the engine can remain cool is your thermostat. On start-up, the thermostat remains closed; shutting off access to the radiator. This gets the coolant hot so that the engine warms up. Once it reaches an optimal operating temperature, your Nissan D21 thermostat then opens up and allows the coolant into the radiator. Now your coolant gets cooled as it recirculates through your Nissan D21 engine; keeping it within a specific range of temperatures that are determined for the engine to achieve the best balance between power, fuel efficiency, and emissions... all thanks to the thermostat.
Don't let a Thermostats repair bring about the demise of your car, truck, or SUV, and don't gamble with its condition by buying anything but the highest quality repair parts. At Car Parts Discount, we have real customer support agents here with enough expertise to help you purchase the correct Nissan D21 part for your needs. Buy all the car parts you will ever need from carpartsdiscount.com and save time and money on all your upcoming repairs. Need 1994, 1993, 1992, 1991, 1990, 1989, 1988, 1987, 1986 Nissan D21 Thermostats parts? We've got them right here.

In the second preseason game it was a mixed bag for the Jets. They lost the game 22-18, but the score isn't really important. What is important is the positional battles and stand out play of guys just trying to make the roster. Like last week, I'll break it down into the good the bad and the in between.
The Good
Robby Anderson- Who you might ask? Jets WR Robby Anderson had himself a game catching 6 balls for 131 yards and a TD. Last week, Jalin Marshall, Charone Peake, and Jeremy Ross had good games, but this week was Anderson's time to shine. Peake and Marshall especially were targeted many times, but just couldn't get much going. The WR depth chart behind Brandon Marshall, Decker, Enunwa, and Smith is still very up in the air after this week. The Jets went into the season with 6 WRs last year, which leaves a lot of guys battling for just two spots assuming they do the same this year.
Bryce Petty- Bryce Petty had some poor moments, but overall played very well last night. His performance was against 3rd stringers, but he certainly looked much better than Geno Smith last night. There is an outside chance that Petty challenges Geno for his backup spot. Petty looked great throwing the ball deep and just looked more comfortable in the offense.
Lachlan Edwards- The Jets punting woes with Ryan Quigley have finally come to an end. Jets rookie Lachlan Edwards is the real deal and was giving the Jets good field position all game last night. It's never great when your punter has six punts, but he made the most of them. The Jets special teams will be much improved this year.
Leonard Williams- Williams is quietly having a good preseason with sacks in each of the first two games. Williams made pressuring the QB his goal this offseason and it appears to be paying off so far.
The Bad
Receivers other than Robby Anderson- This is mostly directed at Peake and Marshall. The rookies both had great games last week, but had drops and overall didn't play as well this week. Like I said earlier, the final WRs that will make the roster are anyone's guess.
Tight ends- Jace Amaro finally got his first catch of the preseason, and followed it with two horrendous drops. Kellen Davis and Zach Sudfeld both had fumbles that were recovered by Washington. The Jets look well on their way to having the worst TEs in the league once again. Sudfeld at least had a good game besides the fumble.
QBs other than Bryce Petty- The first team offense looked anemic. Part of that is due to one healthy RB on the roster, as Tommy Bohanon doesn't exactly strike fear into the hearts of his enemies. That being said, Fitz and Geno looked pretty bad. Neither QB led the offense to any points. Geno had an extremely telegraphed throw that was easily picked off. You'd like to see better from both of them in the next preseason game.
Injuries- Both Quincy Enunwa and Erin Henderson had to leave the game and did not return.
First team defense- The Redskins had a few long drives that ended up scoring no points. The first was ended by a nice Darrelle Revis INT and the other on a 4th down stop. You'd like to see the defense giving up fewer yards, but at the end of the day points win games and the 1st team was good about bending but not breaking.
Juston Burris- The 4th round pick of the Jets this year made some good plays and some not so good plays. He had a big pass break up that would've been a big play for Washington, but he also let up a TD on a deep pass. His play is inconsistent, but the talent seems to be there.
Hackenberg – For the second straight week, Jets 2nd round pick Christian Hackenberg did not see the field. The coaches know better than I do about his development, but Jets fans have got to be getting antsy about seeing their "QB of the future" in action.

A statue of Mahatma Gandhi, the "inspirational" leader of India's independence movement, will be unveiled outside the Houses of Parliament next month.
The bronze sculpture by Philip Jackson, which shows Gandhi wearing a shawl and traditional dhoti skirt, with his hands clasped, is inspired by photographs of the civil rights leader on the steps of 10 Downing Street during a visit to London in 1931.
The statue will be unveiled in London's Parliament Square on March 14 after donations to the Gandhi Statue Memorial Trust reached more than £1 million, the Government said.
The memorial will be the focal point of events in Britain this summer to mark the 100th anniversary of Gandhi's return to India from South Africa to start the country's struggle for self-rule.
Plans for the memorial were announced by Chancellor George Osborne and former foreign secretary William Hague in July during a visit to the site of Gandhi's assassination in New Delhi.
Prime Minister David Cameron said: " Mahatma Gandhi is an inspiration. His approach of non-violence will resonate forever as a positive legacy – not just for the UK and India, but the world over.
"He was a man of great insight and many of his observations remain as fresh and relevant today as when he first made them – that we should be the change we wish to see in the world is timeless advice, well worth following.
"The statue in Parliament Square not only marks his huge importance in the history of both our countries, but will enrich the firm bond of friendship between the world's oldest democracy and its largest."
Culture Secretary Sajid Javid said: " Gandhi is one of the most inspirational figures in history and the statue will be a fitting symbol to his teachings of non-violent, peaceful protests. It also highlights the strength of the relationship and friendship that Britain has with India today.
"I would like to thank Lord Desai and the work of the Gandhi Statue Memorial Trust for raising the funds to make this happen. It is right that Gandhi's teachings and work are not forgotten and the statue will keep his legacy alive and inspire many young people to learn his incredible story."
Lord Desai, chairman of the Gandhi Statue Memorial Trust, said: " It is great that there will be a monument honouring Gandhi in London's Parliament Square, which was one of his favourite cities. He is the first Indian and the only person honoured with a statue in the Square who never held public office.
"Generous donors have contributed sums from a pound up to hundreds of thousands of pounds from UK, India and around the world. On behalf of the Gandhi Statue Memorial Trust we thank all who made it possible for us to exceed our target of a million pounds within six months. As Gandhi said 'If the cause is right the means will come '."

In short, DON"T WASTE YOUR TIME OR MONEY!!
The front desk manager Diane refused to honor the rate i was quoted only an hour earlier when I was booking. She was very rude and discourteous. I complained to Hilton Corp office and was told I would be contacted by the GM for follow up, but I never receive as much as message via pigeon. I eat at their in house restaurant, Rocky River Grill, i ordered the marinated rib eye steak for $24+. DON"T EVEN THINK THIS IS A REAL STEAK! It was so hard, over-cooked and tasted like it was reincarnated from the Ice Age. I asked for medium but it came out well-done, I sent it back, the manager came over and assured me they would get it right, but when it came out, it was well done again. The pool was over-chlorinated causing our eyes to burn. Till this day I still have never been contacted by the GM to address any of the issues I experienced. NOT A VERY WELL RUN HOTEL....THE GM NEEDS SOME RE-TRAINING ON CUSTOMER SERVICE!!

Fun story!
Sue Reddel, Chief Travel Officer
Sue Reddel has traveled the world extensively both for business and pleasure. She's the Chief Travel Officer for our company Food Travel Network, Inc. We thought it would be fun to get an inside look at someone who actually does travel for a living!
FT: We know you love food and travel – that's why you're here! Many people would consider yours to be their dream job. So that we can learn how you got to this place, tell us a little about how travel evolved as an important part of your life.
SR: I started traveling for business years ago, mostly domestically. When I was asked to travel internationally I thought, absolutely! Then when my solo first long-haul trip came I was actually a little scared. What if I get lost? I don't know the language. So many potential problems. The first trip went perfectly so I was set-up for success from there on out. You have to plan for everything, make lists, have your travel gear always ready and then expect some things to go wrong. You have a Mac they have a PC. Just carry the right cords & adapters and you're fine. No problem is so big that it can't be fixed or worked around. It's also not glamorous. there will be plenty of sleepless nights, sleepless flights, missed connections, delays. You have to go with the flow and get rest when you can. Take care of yourself, drink plenty of water, eat right, get out and walk whenever you can. But most of all be safe know where you're at and ask your hotel or colleagues for advice on getting around. Taxi drivers have a wealth of information from best local restaurants to what time to get to the airport. International airports are quirky so don't be afraid to ask questions.
FT: What's been the most surprising place you've ever visited? What made it so surprising?
SR: Ireland! I knew that it would be very green and pretty from the pictures I had seen. I wasn't prepared for the wonderful people, rich history and delicious food I experienced in Ireland. I feel like I made a new friend at every stop. The food was varied and multi-cultural. I had wonderful Italian, French, Mexican and Irish food. The butter and cheeses are so fresh and creamy. I can't wait to go back again.
FT: Tell us your funniest travel disaster story.
SR: I was in Holland and taking a train from Delft to Amsterdam to catch a flight. There was a train malfunction and I was stuck on a connecting station not knowing exactly where I was or how to get to the airport. I didn't know the language. Everyone I asked couldn't help me. I finally spotted a conductor getting out of another train and asked him what was going on and how to get to the airport. He said he had no idea and went to walk away. Fortunately, another gentleman asked him the same thing and then told me he worked at the airport. He told us how to connect on another platform. We dashed. I followed all the people with wheelies on the very crowded platform and prayed I was going the right direction because my flight was about 90 minutes from take off. I squeezed myself and my wheelie on the train, laughed and said out loud I hope I'm on the right train. A women right next to me laughed and asked where I was going, I told her, she said yes you are and she eased my mind when she said I would have plenty of time to catch my plane. I made the plane and even had time to grab a croissant for the plane ride.
FT: What's your favorite food travel destination?
SR: Very hard question. Close tie between France and Spain. Different cultures and food but I adore them both. In France, prefer the casual bistro or brasserie fare of mussels, white fish, roasted chicken, frites and pâtés. And, of course, all the bakeries! Croissants, baguettes, macarons, I love them all. Spanish Tapas is another one of my favorite ways to eat. Small bites of all that's good with great wine and cheese is a perfect meal for me.
FT: Where have you not yet been that you definitely want to go someday?
SR: So many places. High on the list are Morocco, Fiji, Moscow and Bangkok.
FT: What do you think makes food travel so appealing?
SR: For me it's about learning how people have passed down food traditions and recipes from generation to generation. It's amazing how so many of these recipes have made it to so many corners of the world. Hearing the stories behind the recipes, how people watched their grandmothers and mothers cooking and baking together, sharing techniques and stories. Those are the stories I love.
FT: What's the one thing you won't travel without?
SR: Noise-canceling headphones. Great way to drown out screaming kids, loud-talkers and snorers on a long flight.
Extra bonus prize question:
FT: What suggestions do you have for those with wanderlust?
SR: Go now. Don't wait. There's always a great excuse not to go. No time, no money, it's scary, the list goes on and on. Life is too short. You just never know what tomorrow will bring. There are plenty of last-minute deals, rewards programs to accumulate points, ways to make traveling affordable for everyone. Find the way that works best for you and GO!
Lots of great information and stories. Thanks to Sue Reddel for talking with us!
THE QUICK BITE: Food Travelist Chief Travel Officer Sue Reddel explains how to get the most out of your travel and life.

The Victory:
Who would have thought that Sperm Donor #1's divorce would end up being my victory?
As I mentioned in The Battle post, Sperm Donor #1 and I were sharing placement on a 2-2-3 schedule when his first marriage came to an end.
How was this good for me?
He was living in his brother's basement.
He didn't have enough space to take Zack, let alone his other kids.
That is when I put my foot down.
I wrote up an agreement and he willingly signed it.
He gave me back sole placement of Zack. (Yay! Me!)
I filed that agreement with the courts and lo and behold it has been that way since 2003!
I was happy to have my little family of 3 back!

As a relative newcomer to the intricacies of metadata flows across the publishing industry, I looked forward to interviewing Renée Register this past week. Renée has first-hand knowledge of how metadata is created and modified "downstream" from publishers by vendors and libraries, and the problems we face when those changes are not replicated through the entire system.
At the 11:25 marker in our interview below, Renée gives a good summary of the issues and next steps for solving them. At 17:40 she talks about her upcoming panel at the BEA with big players including Ingram, Bowker, and Barnes & Noble. She has asked them to identify the data points they most often enhance, and whether or not those changes get communicated back to the publisher. Renée will then moderate an open discussion with the audience which I jokingly termed a Truth and Reconciliation process—and she did not disagree!
Industry-wide communication and feedback is the key to creating a global discoverability environment that will benefit all authors. While individual authors may not be able to influence this process, raising our collective awareness about the larger metadata issues can help support those within the industry who are working for change.
Renée is co-author of The Metadata Handbook with Thad McIlroy, who I interviewed here about metadata for authors and small publishers.

I just tried it recently, after the deluge of posts. Wouldn't have heard about it before if it weren't for chowhound since this BBQ stand does not show up at the big farmer's markets that I usually patronize such as the Santa Monica one or the Hollywood one on Selma on Sundays.
Anyhow, the brisket and tri-tip were really good, one was sliced thicker than the other. i believe the tri-tip was thinner, and both had that beautiful hickory smoke layers prized by BBQ fanatics just like me. the smoke ring speaks of authenticity. both were served sans sauce. but i tore apart some pieces and dipped it into the cue sauce, and the sauce was pretty darn good too. actually dipped the supermarket wheat bread into the sauce too.
the sides, beans and potato salad dusted with paprika felt a little bit more upscale and refined than usual. heck they even tasted darn good additionally, these are not Costco tubs of beans and potato salad.
oh, and i did partake in one of the red velvet cupcakes which was a delicious coda to end the meal. my only problem is the meat seems to be too cold, and more so, why is it that bbq usually seems to be served cold or lukewarm rather than piping hot, migeht be due to the smoker in opposition to the grilling options.
good stuff, not cheap ( a meal will be at least fifteen bucks with a drink but i believe the quality is nothing to sneer at either, so you're paying for the goods.).

ROCK legend Malcolm Young of AC/DC who recently left the band due to ill-health, is suffering from dementia.
The guitarist, a founder member of the heavy metal veterans, has been replaced in the band by his nephew.
A family statement to People magazine said: "Malcolm is suffering from dementia and the family thanks you for respecting their privacy."
The band announced his departure last month but said they would go on without him and that their new album, Rock Or Bust, will be released in December. Young, who was born in Glasgow, emigrated to Australia at the age of ten with his family and formed AC/DC in 1973 with his younger brother Angus, who has famously dressed as a schoolboy onstage for many years.
The band have previously survived the death of their singer when Bon Scott died in 1980 after a night of heavy drinking in London. He was replaced by Brian Johnson, who has remained as vocalist ever since. They have been a huge draw on the rock circuit for decades, creating anthems such as Highway To Hell and Back In Black, although they have tended to have album rather than single success. Their songs were used as the soundtrack for the Stephen King movie, Maximum Overdrive and, with far greater commercial success in Iron Man 2. AC/DC's albums have been few and far between in recent years and their most recent release, 2008 chart-topper Black Ice, was only their third since 1990.
In April this year the band were forced to deny rumours they were splitting up and put out a statement saying: "the band will continue to make music." At the time they also confirmed that Malcolm Young would be taking a break after "40 years of life dedicated to AC/DC."

EUREKA – MORETTO introduces innovative approach to material drying
Moretto S.p.A.
EUREKA – MORETTO introduces innovative approach to material drying
EUREKA – MORETTO introduces innovative approach to material drying at K 2010 in Düsseldorf, Hall 11, Stand H57
Fast cost benefits with PET drying systems through low energy expenditure brings competitive advantage to moulders
MORETTO S.p.A. of Massanzago, Italy, one of the world's leading manu-facturers of auxiliary equipment for the plastics processing industry, will be unveiling new technologies, innovative business concepts and state-of-the-art equipment at K 2010 in Düsseldorf in October.
Challenging economic times require new pioneering business strategies. MORETTO offers moulders the opportunity to embark on a totally new risk-free business model called EUREKA – involving no investment up front – to achieve marked reductions in material treatment costs and, as a con-sequence, increased profits, improved performance and better quality.
Till now no company has had the aim to realize market solutions which al-low a fast and guaranteed ROI for the customer. With the EUREKA project, MORETTO proposes not only an efficacious and reliable system, but it sup-plies also a financial tool able to guarantee a return of the investments with a sure date. The one proposed by MORETTO is an absolutely innova-tive approach because it puts the customer in a position to use a cutting-edge technology with no financial exposition and, above all, it guarantees a sure and proved ROI, without risk.
These are not marketing policies, but the EUREKA project offers a series of real and tangible opportunities for the customer, both in terms of per-formance and financial terms. Perceiving the customer's need and finding the most suitable solutions is one of the key concepts in the MORETTO company policy that, as in the case of EUREKA, approaches the customer with a convinced professional ethic with the aim to solve at best the cus-tomer's problems and strengthen the partnership.
The fully automatic high-volume modular MORETTO drying systems, com-bining the new X MAX dryer and the FLOWMATIK controller with the new OTX hopper, enable a throughput of up to 8,000 kg/h capacity, in combi-nation with a modular generator of 20,000 m³/h – giving total flexibility of between three and 10 modular design dryer units and from 1 up to 32 drying hoppers, all without requiring either compressed air or cooling wa-ter. The result is faster, consistent and gentle drying of highly hygroscopic polymers – such as PET – with the benefit of a significant reduction in en-ergy consumption. The factor separating this multi-tower system from conventional systems is the maintenance of a consistent, i.e. uniform, dew point throughout the process, thereby reaching high efficiency levels and total operating flexibility, for example in the mix of preform sizes and weights. Efficiency is never compromised – even at lower throughputs.
The innovative EUREKA project is geared to provide moulders – treating primarily PET – with an alternative and totally new business model to tackle the second highest cost, after raw material cost, i.e. energy, some 30 percent of which is attributable to drying. Offering moulders a no-risk acquisition plan, MORETTO encourages moulders to try out, and eventu-ally own, the new equipment. Instead of either the outright purchase, lease of equipment or alternative finance options, the customer is invited to negotiate the power consumption and other operational costs of his ex-isting equipment with the new EUREKA system. This company is offering to install the EUREKA system without formulating a purchasing contract and will merely charge a monthly fee based on the amount of energy sav-ings, calculating the differential between the 'old' and the newly installed equipment. After two years, the system will have been paid for and owned outright by the customer. This will be achieved just through energy sav-ings. If not satisfied, the system(s) can be returned to MORETTO at no ex-tra cost to the customer. This innovative approach demonstrates the ex-ceptional values of integrity and trust, combined with customer satisfac-tion, Renato Moretto, CEO of MORETTO, shows his customers. Several new technologies – all part of the EUREKA project – will be shown and demonstrated at K 2010.
The basis for the new MORETTO EUREKA project – designed to reduce en-ergy consumption consistently and improve performance and quality – is the new multiple unit X MAX system (X MAX dryers combined with the FLOWMATIK controller and the state-of-the-art OTX hoppers), with its sin-gle desiccant bed, i.e. twice the size of conventional beds. Reduced energy consumption is achieved by the use of zeolite, a volcanic mineral, as a molecular filter. The air flow channel of the X MAX dryer is situated in the centre with the heater in the middle of the channel. With the heat ex-changer also at the centre, complete recovery of regenerated energy is assured, as every Watt of energy is used in the polymer treatment.
The 'green-factor' labeled system with its extremely low energy consump-tion accommodates increasing throughputs of, for instance, PET preforms. This is particularly important as numbers of mould cavities are ever in-creasing. All the vital factors which influence the management and control of the drying process of numerous plastic granular materials – and PET in particular – are taken into consideration: type of material, granule size, bulk density, temperature, dew point, residence time, specific airflow, ini-tial air moisture content, final residual moisture content in the granule, and viscosity. In a multi-dryer system, each unit, with its stand-alone air circuit and controlled by a dew point meter, can be set at the same tem-perature and air-flow rate, whilst simultaneously staggering the different dew points. The FLOWMATIK controller manages all relevant sequences – no simultaneous regenerating is necessary – so that the mix of process air from the dryers maintains a constant value of around -65° C.
Figure 1
In figure 1 it is evident that a lower dew point value improves the final re-sult in terms of ppm, in the same time and with the same temperature.
The integrated FLOWMATIK controller is designed and programmed to de-tect each hopper's capacity and the material's bulk density, the desired resident time, temperature, and the air flow rate. "Once you have control over the process, the exact drying time needed can be established. All you have to enter is the material type and the desired throughput rate; the system will take care of the rest", according to Renato Moretto. By tailor-ing airflow to the throughput rate, higher savings are obvious. His innova-tive ideas go even further: The FLOWMATIK Split system divides the PET to be dried first into a larger hopper at a relatively low temperature, then into a second, smaller hopper at the customary 180° C. The efficient ap-proach of EUREKA is designed to reduce airflow needs by more than 50 percent. Research into greater efficiency and improved user benefits util-ized computerized fluid-dynamic and thermo-dynamic simulation trials to analyze current leading hopper designs. Non-uniform flow through the hopper, combined with temperature gradients of up to 80° C (from centre to outside), have been identified. In addition, material can contain twice as much moisture as the average of the hopper in its entirety. The conclu-sion: given a nominal four-hour residence time in the hopper, some mate-rial exits in as little as 2.5 hours' time.
Another processing benefit is that one dryer can be taken off-line, whilst a newly regenerated dryer (standard with the system) is installed as a re-placement. In order to achieve not only a considerable reduction in energy use, more uniform heating and efficient regeneration at lower airflow rates are possible.
The FLOWMAX system can be utilized in a number of different configura-tions according to individual requirements: i.e. FLOWMAX UNI (a battery of X MAX units), Twin and Multi with X MAX dryers creates complete Uni and multi-hopper systems which are able to meet a wide range of needs in the feeding and drying with very low energy consumption. FLOWMAX UNI comprises a battery of X MAX units with a single hopper, enabling de-humidification of large quantities of raw materials – up to 8,000 kg/h. In fact, X MAX is a multi-tower system at constant performance. While one dryer is in regeneration, the other units continue operation until they, too, are submitted to regeneration – one after the other. Not only does this ensure a steady process, but also it guarantees the rotation of the X MAX units for regeneration which can be also in 72 hours or up to 100 between a cycle and the following one in the same drying tower.
The redesigned state-of-the-art MORETTO OTX hopper with its new ge-ometry solves the problem of the non-uniform fall flows of the granules, allowing to manage the process efficaciously. Also the air diffusion has been optimized eliminating the temperature differences. "Unlike the un-controlled mixing occurring in conventional hoppers, our hopper achieves a much more uniform moisture ppm in less time", explains Renato Mor-etto. To give an example, increased ppm control and uniformity results in a reduction in drying time from the typical six hours to an average of four hours and even less. In addition, drying temperatures can be reduced from 180° C to 175° C, also cutting air flow by up to 40 percent, whilst achieving 20 ppm final moisture (Figure 2). To summarize, by using the new MORETTO hopper, an identical throughput can accomplish a 30 per-cent decrease in drying time, 40 percent reduction in air flow requirement, and a 25 percent drop in hopper volume. Each hopper has its own heater, an airflow valve to allow for automatic variables, and a flowmeter, ac-commodating from 1000 to 10,000 liters, thus providing a flexible high volume, highly efficient system.
MORETTO S.p.A., among the global leaders in the field of plastics automa-tion, designs, manufactures and distributes ancillary equipment for the plastics processing industry worldwide. Exactly 30 years ago the company was founded by its CEO, Renato Moretto. More than 200 employees work in the manufacturing and administrative facilities in Massanzago, near Pa-dua in Italy. A dedicated and skilled sales network covers 52 countries, and 5 distribution centers represent the company in all continents. Renato Moretto strongly considers intellectual honesty, exceptional business eth-ics, absolute integrity, and technical competence to be the principal and essential elements of the professionalism of his company – OMS&P – Original MORETTO Systems & People.

Three years ago today, I married a guy. We vowed to honor and love each other, protecting each other through rich or poor times. We tied our hands together to put a literal meaning to "tying the knot."
We were older, wiser, a tad bit more jaded, but knew without a doubt that our hearts were in sync. He's stood by my (crazy, hormonal, sometimes irrational) side since our first date in October, seven years ago. And on this day, when most people (ourselves included) are celebrating Halloween by going door to door with children begging for candy from strangers, we know that the day was once celebrated a bit differently. And a whole lot more meaningful.
Here's to remembering one of my favorite days ever: trainwreck maid of honor speeches, best man speeches with dirty references, and starting a new chapter in our lives together.
Happy Anniversary, and Happy Halloween!

In late February of this year, Joe sat down with Anthony and Chris Hoisington (and bevy of other fine individuals) and enjoyed an extended conversation with the group known as Brothers McClurg. Sadly, when we sat down a week later to edit the interview for a feature episode, tears welled up in our our eyes – after five minutes, the audio flat-lined, rendering most of the interview unusable (unless you like to hear a monotone buzz for 40 minutes…).
The thing is, we really like these guys, and their music is great. Therefore, we made the decision to swallow our pride and share the small bit that we do have, because we want to get the word out about Brothers McClurg one way or another. So, although the episode is brief, it is still fun. Listen in, download their latest releases (Home and Around the Mic), and be sure tell a friend about the fresh new music you've discovered.
Other Notes:
- If you're interested in taking a little trip in WABAC machine, we invite you to listen to Joe's first interview with Chris and Anthony, which was recorded for All About Worship in January 2012: http://www.allaboutworship.com/blog/brothersmcclurg

Jay's Trading Maxim #201: It is OK to make all the predictions you'd like regarding the financial markets. Just don't be stupid enough to risk a lot of money thinking that you'll be right (more succinctly: Predicting the future is really hard).
Jay' Trading Maxim #202: There is an incredibly fine line between courage and stupidity. Approach that line with caution.
(See also Jay's Trading Maxim's (Part 1))
(See also Jay's Trading Maxim's (Part 2))
Jay's Trading Maxim #206: When you find yourself becoming quite pleased and comfortable with the way things are flowing, beware the ebb.
Jay's Trading Maxim #212a: If you've made the decision to "go for the gusto", then for crying out loud man, just go for the gusto.
And the all important addendum…
Jay's Trading Maxim #213b: "Gusto" ain't always all it's cracked up to be. So if you've made the decision to "go for the gusto", remember not to lose your shirt in the process.
Jay's Trading Maxim #292: There is a difference between picking a bottom and recognizing a potential opportunity.
Jay's Trading Maxim #293: Most truly great buying opportunities do not look anything at all like truly great buying opportunities at the time they are truly great buying opportunities. In fact, they typically look like just the opposite.
Jay's Trading Maxim #306: Human nature can be a detriment to trading success and should be avoided as much as humanly possible.
Jay's Trading Maxim #306a: The Elliott Wave count can be an extremely valuable market timing tool. Especially when it works.

Jay Trading Maxim #306b: If you want to know how useful Elliott Wave theory is, just go and ask any Elliott Wave theoretician (but maybe bring a sandwich because you might be there a while).
Jay's Trading Maxim #312: "There are exceptions to every rule." (OK, I'm pretty sure I picked this one up from someplace else, but still, you've got to admit that it's got some merit).
Jay's Trading Maxim #321: Refusing to employ some sort of stop-loss mechanism so as not to interfere with a given trading system's performance is perfectly acceptable – right up until the time that – tragically – it is not.
(See also This is What a Classic Bottom Formation Looks Like (Maybe?))
Jay's Trading Maxim #372: What goes up may eventually go down – but it might also continue to go up and maybe a lot more than you expect and for a really long time. So learn to follow trends and establish objective exit criteria.
Jay's Trading Maxim #373: What goes down may or may not eventually go back up – but it will probably bounce, at least every once in a while.
As it turns out Trading Maxim #373 is much more useful when applied to physical commodities than to individual stocks, for as we know, the price of a stock can in fact go to zero. Virtually any physical commodity – no matter how much in abundance it may be – will maintain a price level somewhere north of zero.

some people claim the older version is better IQ wise, but the RS looks more modern (like the Sony 50mm F/1.4). IMO, they're probably nearly identical. On Dyxum, the older one has a slightly higher review, not that that really means much. The RS though is a bit more expensive.

Ian Somerhalder is just as sad as you are about The Vampire Diaries ending after season 8.
The star, who plays Damon Salvatore on The CW series, recently hit the Wizard World convention in Columbus, Ohio, where he opened up about the drama coming to a close next season. Instagram user purefandom captured Somerhalder's comments about wrapping up the series.
"It feels good to be able to end this kind of on our terms," said Somerhalder, who explained that it's better to end the show on a high note rather than "fizzling out" or "losing engagement" with fans. "It's a good way to go. It's a great sign off."
While The CW first revealed The Vampire Diaries' finale news during the show's Comic-Con panel last month, Somerhalder had already been planning to exit the series.
The actor announced his plans to depart the drama at a convention back in April, saying, "we have decided to do one last season to really do the story justice." The announcement set of months of speculation about whether or not the show would continue without its original castmembers, particularly since costar Kat Graham had also said she was leaving after one more season. Star Nina Dobrev left the show in 2015 (based on recent comments from creator Julie Plec, fans have reason to be hopeful they'll see her again in the series finale).
At the Wizard World convention this past weekend, Somerhalder said the farewell is "bittersweet."
"Just from an inside perspective, just so you guys know, it is really bittersweet, and really beautiful for us to be a television show for this long. Doesn't happen often," said Somerhalder. "I don't know very many people like [us] on television shows— this is definitely my longest relationship."
The Vampire Diaries returns to The CW in the fall.

It says in The Bible: "The heavens declare the glory of God; the skies proclaim the work of his hands. Day after day they pour forth speech. Their voice goes out into all the earth, their words to the ends of the world." (Psalm 19)
When we examine the world, the beauty, order and intricacy of nature floods our senses. We can spend a whole lifetime studying one animal, one plant, one cell even. And when we turn our gaze on the farthest reaches of space we find the universe confounding us with awe-inspiring scale and unimaginable power.
Wherever we go we are confronted with displays of glory that demand more of us than we are able to give. Why do we waste our time with petty distractions and self-indulgences? Why do we ever do anything wrong when we are placed in such a setting? Looking into our own hearts is like going to see the crown jewels and instead of finding the Koh-i-Nur diamond we see that someone has swapped it for an old apple core. Why do we live like moral paupers when everything about the universe points to the fact that we are supposed to be the very crown of creation?
This is the knot that Christ came to untie. To restore sight to the blind, to give freedom to those in prison. Put your faith in Jesus Christ, repent and be baptised, and your chains will fall off and you will rise and walk with the one who is truly King.

Traditional Japanese Breakfast Recipes
Japanese breakfast recipes experience can be quite a hurdle for Westerners. We are not used to eating fish, rice or soup for breakfast.
If you ever spend the night in a Japanese hotel or traditional ryokan, it is highly likely that you will be confronted with what I like to call 'the Japanese breakfast experience'. While most Westerners will already consider a bowl of cereal a heartening breakfast, the Japanese are a bit more thorough when it comes to eating breakfast. The simple version will usually include a bowl of miso soup, rice or rice porridge (called okayu), a piece of cooked fish and some pickled vegetables. Additionally bread, eggs, vegetables, natto or meat may also be included.
Healthy japanese breakfast
Broiled Salmon Teriyaki
The showcase of this fabulous meal was Chiharu's Broiled Salmon Teriyaki. As simple as it is succulent, Chiharu broils the fish until almost cooked through, then coats it with homemade teriyaki sauce for the final minute or so. "Don't add the teriyaki sauce too soon," she advises, "or the sauce will burn and ruin the fish."Chiharu deftly pulled the fish out from under the broiler, removed the skin, added a few lemon slices and topped it with a sprinkling of yuzu shichimi, or "seven spices." Like an artist, she sauced, plated, arranged and served a dazzling, traditional breakfast. Maybe next time I'll tell you about Chiharu's dessert menu.
Miso soup
The instant dashi stock in a pan with the boiling water. Add the potato and simmer over medium heat for about six minutes, or until the potato is cooked.Ladle some soup from the pan into a bowl and dissolve the miso in it. Gradually return the miso mixture to the soup. Stir the soup gently but don't let it come to the boil once you've added the miso. Turn off the heat and add the chopped spring onion.
Natto is another popular breakfast meal in Japan. It consists of fermented soy beans and rice. My Japanese friend, Sakura, mentioned that it has a particular smell, which can be hard for some people to take. She said that there are even Japanese people who can't eat it! However, if you are one of the lucky ones who likes this dish, it is said to have excellent health benefits.
Koji Salmon
Spread shio koji on salmon fillet and let marinade for as long as possible (1-2 days is ideal). Wipe off excess shio koji and pan-fry salmon until meat flakes away easily with a fork. Serve with other breakfast dishes.
Gome-ae Green Beans
Mix together sesame, soy sauce, sugar and a little salt to season, until the resulting seasoning resembles a thick paste. Meanwhile, steam beans until tender, strain, and run briefly under running cold water. Throw beans into sesame dressing while still warm. Stir through and serve with other breakfast dishes.
Japanese Rice
Add rice and 125ml water to saucepan, cover, and place on a stove at maximum heat. When the water starts boiling turn the heat down and let simmer for 15-20 minutes. Remove from heat and let steam for a further 15-20 minutes. Uncover, stir through and serve with other breakfast dishes.

The Netherlands–somehow, someway–defeated Mexico 2-1 this afternoon in a Round of 16 match, and how that win happened probably won't even make it a top-five game this year because…
…Just holy sh*t, this World Cup.
Played in sweltering conditions in Fortaleza (at one point, the humidity coupled with the temperature made it feel like 104 degrees), the two teams battled for 90 minutes plus stoppage time, with Mexico seeming like the more dangerous of the two squads over the majority of the match.
El Tri's quick counters and build-up play eventually lead to a scorcher of a goal in the 48th minute from Giovani dos Santos, wretched past shaky Dutch keeper Jasper Cillessen just outside the box, but the Mexicans appeared to tire as the match wore on.
Another reflex save by Mexico's omnipresent goalkeeper Memo Ochoa (seriously, how many of these f*cking saves has this guy had this month?) in the second half put off the Dutch until the 88th minute, but then two things happened in the span of approximately six minutes:
— Mexico allowed The Netherlands' Wesley Sneijder to piss all over la Virgin de Guadalupe with a half-volley ripper to tie the game in the 88th minute. Seriously, watch this below and the guess at how fast it was actually traveling before hitting the net.
— Rafael Marquez tripped Arjen Robben in the box in the 94th minute, giving the Dutch a game-winning penalty kick.
Why Marquez was that clumsy around Robben–who had been fishing for a PK all game–will leave the brightest among us confused, but Klaas-Jan Huntelaar took to the spot to put the game away.
The Mexicans didn't deserve the ending they got, especially after the tournament they've had. But that's the game of soccer, so while El Tri heads home, the Dutch have a quarterfinal date with either Greece or Costa Rica on Saturday.
However, Dutch Royal Airlines stay losing:

The crippling of Superfund -- the program to clean up the nation's most seriously polluted toxic waste sites -- by the Federal budget impasse has fallen particularly hard on New Jersey, home to more Superfund sites (107) than any other state.
George Pavlou, a deputy director at the Environmental Protection Agency for the region covering New Jersey, said that since October, the agency had been unable to start work on at least half a dozen of the state's newest Superfund sites because there has been no final budget. Another 14 cleanup projects had to be stopped during the first week of the year during the Government shutdown. And if Congress does not restore the agency's funds by Friday, Mr. Pavlou said, there will be another round of costly disruptions.
Unless there is a continuing resolution, we're going to have to shut down operations again and notify our contractors that they can't do the work because we can't be there to oversee the operations," he said.
The E.P.A. spends $100 million to $200 million a year on Superfund sites in New Jersey. At the beginning of this year, the Federal Government stopped collecting the tax on oil and chemical companies that pays for the 15-year-old program to clean up the nation's most seriously polluted toxic waste sites because Congress has been unable to agree on a plan for restructuring the program. Republican leaders have vowed to weaken the agency.
Administrators at the E.P.A. have begun ranking the 1,200 Superfund projects to decide which require immediate attention and which can be put on hold, Mr. Pavlou said. He added that the agency's emergency response at dozens of pollution sites around the state that are not on the Superfund list had also been hobbled, although top-priority operations like the evacuation of 37 residents from a mercury-contaminated Hoboken building last month were continuing.
Even at the 60 Superfund sites in the state where the cleanup is being handled by the polluters themselves, Mr. Pavlou said, another E.P.A. shutdown will mean that the companies will have to work without agency supervision, something they might be unwilling to do because they would be liable for mistakes.Continue reading the main story
