Huawei Ascend D1 Q teaser pics posted to the net
Huawei continues teaser campaign for its "fastest smartphone yet" – quad core Ascend D1 Q. Getting ready for announcement next Sunday at Mobile World Congress in Barcelona.
We have first learned the name of the new smartphone via Huawei's chairman status update on a Chinese twitter-like Weibo. Now the company itself took to the micro-blogging service and some other sites to post a series of teaser images for Ascend D1 Q.
While pics do not reveal any design breakthroughs, Huawei D1 Q looks pretty good. And shows the Chinese company is getting ready to step up its game in the smartphone business. From a no-name OEM and cheap Android handset maker, to branded vendor of high end smartphones.
It will be interesting to see how Huawei will do against Samsung, HTC, Sony and Motorola in the premium Android device category. The game at the top just got way more complicated for incumbents.
P.S Huawei marketing folks, I really hope you will rethink your device naming policy. Ascend? D1? Q? This is way too complicated. Diamond, followed by an additional letter/acronym is enough.
Via Techorz, thank's Alfred

Technology Roadmapping for Energy Efficient Electronics
Power Electronics – Realising its Potential for Energy Efficiency
Today 40% of all energy consumption is in electrical energy, but this will grow to 60% by 2040. Much of this energy is wasted today by inefficient technologies. Power electronics is the key technology to control the flow of electrical energy from the source to the load precisely according to the requirements of the load. Power Electronics is a cross functional technology covering the extreme high Giga Watt (GW) power e.g. in energy transmission lines down to the very low milli Watt (mW) power needed to operate a mobile phone. It is responsible for the reliability and stability of the whole power supply infrastructure in Europe from the sources, the energy transmission and distribution up to the huge variety of applications in industry, transportation systems and the home & office appliances. But in spite of the tremendous importance of power electronics, there is a lack of awareness for the role of power electronics in the modern industrial society, even in the well informed general public.
Strategies for Power Electronics Research
The European research community in power electronics is of small but internationally competitive. This is why the community requires a streamlined strategy for mainstreaming R&D. The industry on the other hand is in need of orientation to plan long-term investments. RTD policy makers at the national and EU level require clear strategic options and recommendations based on facts and scenarios, but also including best-practices, and show-case results. This is why the E4U initiative aims at developing a strategic research agenda for power electronics – including research and policy aspects.
European Policies
Energy efficiency is high on the agenda of European policy makers – at the EU and national level. If Europe wants to harvest the enormous potential of new technologies for energy efficiency, it must streamline and focus its research and technology development efforts. In its Communication on ICT for Energy Efficiency, the EC suggests to
- Foster research into novel ICT-based solutions and strengthen their take-up
- Strengthen efforts to reduce the energy needed by ICT itself
- Encourage structural changes to realize the full ICT potential for energy efficiency.
Power electronics will be key to realising this potential. Policies helping to boost power electronics for energy efficiency include research, standardisation, and education. The E4U initiative studied the EU and member states policies in this area.

Victoria - your BD pix are lovely!
Brandy - between 1 and 3....probably #1 because they're more practical and less of a ankle rolling risk...althooooo....#3 are cute and hot at the same time
Greysgirl - I watch Kandee Johnson videos as well but I find that all her "looks" look the same and she uses A LOT of make up. I prefer her make up tutorials on movie characters. I've recently been put on to Lisa Eldridge - so far she's amazing
My FI and i are going to cross the border and do a TARGET & Nordstroms run tomorrow! YAY!
Posted 18 March 2011 - 06:10 AM
Laura, no I read the size chart wrong and ordered a medium top but I need a large top, those bandaeu tops dont work out so good if your busty, they arent very flattering but I have to have them I dont want tan lines!! So Im exchanging my medium tops for large and returning the emily cover up, the seahorse bathing suit I ordered is so cute it has like these gems all on the sides and through the middle of the top and the coral is like a bright neon coral!!
Posted 18 March 2011 - 06:26 AM
Oh No Brandy that is too bad about the cover up! I pick mine up this weekend and I sure hope I like it! What size and colour is yours? And I know what you mean about the bandeau tops. I went by the size chart and ordered all smalls, but when I was at VS last week I tried on the small and it flattened my boobs like pancakes! lol! The small bottoms fit though which is odd... usually I need smaller tops and larger bottoms! When I'm in the states this weekend I'm going to hit a VS store and see if I need to exchange anything.
Posted 18 March 2011 - 06:28 AM
Elese YAY! We are doing a cross border run too (but to Detroit)!! Make sure you stop at the outlet mall on the way to Seattle... I miss that place! Are you going to Bellis Fair or all the way into Seattle?

Philippine boxer Manny Pacquiao confident he'll be in top shape for Brandon Rios fight in China
Manny Pacquiao says he has time to succeed as a politician and remain one of the world's top boxers.
Last Updated: 30/07/13 2:07pm
The eight-weight world champion, who has lost his last two bouts having gone seven years unbeaten prior to that, headed to Asia, where the fight will take place, to try and increase the popularity of the sport in the region.
The 34-year-old insists that he will be totally prepared by the time the fight comes around and says that any political work that may cause him to lose his focus has been put on hold whilst he is in training.
"I have time for serving people as a politician and I have for boxing," said Pacquiao.
"If I have schedule like this, if I am in training, we set aside things that might distract us from our training.
"We focus on our training, we have to make sure we're in 100% condition for the fight."
His clash with Rios is due to take place in November in Macao, China.

How many out there use Linux? I bet if I asked 100 people, less than 10 percent would say yes. To be fair, people think in terms of computers, laptops, netbooks, and desktops, and that demographic is 90 percent Windows, 90 percent Microsoft-centric. But computers and OSes that power them permeate all aspects of our lives today.
While people mostly don't care about computing they don't directly choose and pay for, I think people might be surprised at the numbers and how much they do use Linux. Let's let people know computing doesn't always equate to Microsoft (Nasdaq: MSFT) or Apple (Nasdaq: AAPL). Let's spread the word that our world of technology is often "powered by Linux."
Linux Everywhere
Do you Google (Nasdaq: GOOG)? You use Linux! Do you do shop at Amazon (Nasdaq: AMZN)? You use Linux! Do you have a router for your home network? Do you have NAS (Network Attached Storage) on your home network for shared backups? Do you own a Logitech (Nasdaq: LOGI) Squeezebox? Do you Tivo your shows? How about a smartphone (not iPhone)? Linux, Linux, Linux, Linux and probably Linux.
rest here [2]

217 Carrall Street
Vancouver, BC
Brief Description: A chic, unpretentious Gastown restaurant that dishes up French-meets-West Coast cuisine.
I have just gotten back from another wonderful dinner at L'Abattoir and I felt I had to share what a remarkable experience it was…again. Is it just me, or is this place underrated? Although there is a slight buzz about it, I expect to hear a lot more about a restaurant that is producing such impressive food and cocktails. For all the details on L'Abattoir you can read my post from a few years ago. This post is more to show you the beauty of the food (look at that presentation!) and to mention (again) how truly great it was.
Gastown Swizzle – $11
Complimentary bread basket
Ceps (porcini) with pork belly and jus gras – $30
Roast filet of Pacific Halibut with pasta of Dungeness crab and pork, asparagus – $33
Steak Diane with charred onions, potato fondant, peppercorn – $33
Brown butter clafoutis with poached rhubarb and rhubarb sorbet – $9
The appetizer special was unbelievably good, with succulent, firm ceps (porcini mushrooms) and tender pork belly finished with a luscious foie gras jus. Both mains were plated beautifully with flavours that were perfectly balanced. The dessert was also a treat, although by this stage, we were too full to fully appreciate (but my god, is it beautiful!).
I have to ask myself why I don't go there more often and the only valid reason I could think of is the cost. The prices are on the high-side (although, the value is there) so it is more of a once-in-awhile kinda place, or a special occasion place for me and my budget.

China taxi driver killed in police raidJanuary 11th, 2012 - 5:26 am ICT by IANS
Beijing, Jan 11 (IANS) A taxi driver was accidentally killed in southern China when a raiding police team opened fire at a nightclub, officials said Tuesday.
He was waiting near his parked car in Dongguan city for his passengers to return, when he was hit in the stomach by a stray bullet, Xinhua quoted a statement from the Guangdong provincial government as saying Tuesday.
The driver, whose identity was not revealed, died of his injuries in a hospital.
Thugs at the club attacked the policemen when they tried to arrest them. The officers fired warning shots after six of their colleagues were hurt, the statement said.
They subsequently dispersed the thugs, but in the process the driver was accidentally hit, it said.

text: I have a 2003 ProStar 209 and have bought a New Dimension Tower since it is modeled after the OEM Zero Flex. My problem is that when I went to mount it I have found that the front backing plate on the drivers side is not molded in the correct position. When I lay the holes out according to the diagram and instructions they don't hit that backing plate but match up with the rest of them. I'm concerned about mounting due the stress that will be applied buy towing. Anybody have any ideas what I can do. Is there anything I can go back to MC on? My boat is still under full factory warranty. Thanks in advance for the help.

e2salvage is a utility which tries to do in-place data recovery a from damaged ext2 filesystems. Unlike e2fsck, it does not look for the data at particular places and it don't tend to believe the data it finds; thus it can handle much more damaged filesystem.
e2salvage tries its best to recover the directory structure of the filesystem, if this fails lost files will be linked to root.
e2salvage is still an experimental piece of software - it can do a lot of harm to your filesystem - only run it on a backup of the damaged filesystem to be safe!Authors

You shouldn't get any problems from GST dimerisation. It is probably something else. If you could supply details, we could troubleshoot.

Jardine Matheson Says Profit Increased on Car Sales, Residential Projects
Jardine Matheson Holdings Ltd. (JM) said underlying profit rose 34 percent, boosted by car sales in Indonesia, residential projects in Singapore and rising demand for its Mandarin Oriental International Ltd. (MAND)'s hotel rooms.
Underlying profit, or earnings from its ongoing businesses, increased to $1.4 billion from $1 billion a year earlier, it said in a Regulatory News Service statement. Net income surged 78 percent to $3.1 billion from $1.7 billion. The average estimate of four analysts Bloomberg surveyed was $1.4 billion.
"The positive economic environment seen in Asia throughout 2010 underpinned strong performances from most of the group's businesses," Chairman Henry Keswick said in the statement. "Growth will be harder to achieve in the current year" with lower contribution from residential sales, he said.
Asian economies led a global recovery last year that's been restrained by Europe's sovereign-debt crisis and high U.S. unemployment. Greater China made up 41 percent of Jardine's underlying profit while Southeast Asia contributed 56 percent, boosted by contributions from its Indonesian auto unit, it said.
The Bermuda-incorporated company, which operates out of Hong Kong, said sales increased 31 percent to $47 billion.
Jardine shares, which trade in Singapore, have climbed 9.1 percent this year. The shares rose 1.5 percent today to close at $48. The Straits Times Index has fallen 4 percent this year.
Indonesian Cars
PT Astra International, Indonesia's biggest automotive retailer, said 2010 net income jumped 44 percent from a year earlier, beating analysts' estimates as auto sales gained with the central bank maintaining its benchmark interest rate at a record low and the economy expanded at the fastest pace in six years. Jardine unit Jardine Cycle & Carriage owns 50 percent of Astra, according to data compiled by Bloomberg.
Hongkong Land Holdings Ltd. (HKL), a Jardine unit that's one of the biggest office landlords in the city's financial hub, said 2010 underlying profit rose 4 percent as it completed two residential projects in Singapore.
While contribution from residential developments at Hongkong Land will be lower in 2011, this year still looks positive, Jardine Managing Director Anthony Nightingale said at a press conference in Hong Kong today. There will be a "gradual increase" in rent from commercial properties in Hong Kong's Central business district, he added.
Dairy Farm International Holdings Ltd. (DFI), Hong Kong's second- biggest retailer, said profit rose 13 percent after sales from hypermarkets in Southeast Asia and its health and beauty chain in China increased.
Jardine recommended a full-year dividend of $1.15 a share, an increase of 28 percent from the previous year.

Ask Matt: Try Wilshire 5000 for broader outlook
USA TODAY markets reporter Matt Krantz answers a different reader question every weekday. To submit a question, e-mail Matt at firstname.lastname@example.com.
Q: What does the Wilshire 5000 index measure, and what is it used for?
A: The Wilshire 5000 index is designed to measure the entire stock market.
Other popular market measures, such as the Dow Jones industrial average and Standard & Poor's 500, try to gauge the stock market by tracking a subset or sample of stocks.
The S&P 500 measures the ups and downs of 500 large stocks, while the Dow tracks the changes of 30.

But the Wilshire 5000 tries to take things further by including just about every exchange traded stock with price data. Unlike the Dow and S&P 500, which only include large U.S. stocks, the Wilshire 5000 includes small and midsize companies in addition to large companies.
The Wilshire 5000 is also a valuable tool — frequently used by the media — to measure the dollar value of rises and falls by the stock market. While it might be interesting to know if the Dow rises by 100 points, that doesn't tell you how much money was made that day by investors. But the Wilshire 5000 can approximate how much money was won or lost in the stock market.
While the Wilshire 5000 includes most stocks, it has standards, too. The index includes stocks that have their primary listing in the U.S. and doesn't include stocks that trade on the informal Bulletin Board marketplace.

But conceal it. Thats important as far as the law goes. Now that the Supreme Court has given its re-affirming verdict on what the country's fathers had in mind, law abiding citizens can carry weapons on them in public places but it needs to be concealed properly.
There is literally an onslaught of hand gun holsters in the market now and most gun license holders and undercover law enforcements officers or off duty cops carry a backup weapon. They need to do this in the most comfortable manner and also one appreciates it when the gun is not visible to the public eye.
Usually the gun holders end up spending couple of hundred dollars on a holster that eventually proves too cumbersome and then rusts in the drawer or some cup board.
So it is imperative that what you buy is not only suitable but also comfortable and fulfils your need. But remember in this case, there is no one size fit all scheme. Each person has its own need and requirements.
The most commonly preferred holster is the waistband type. Those with average height and bulk go for these types and its suitable for them. But the drawbacks are, it creates bulk and is not comfortable when sitting or driving.
Another of course is the shoulder holster but that too adds to the bulk under the shirt and jackets. And it becomes difficult to draw the weapon as well sometimes.
Ankle holster means you have to always wear a pant and then it requires you to bend down to draw the weapon.
The whole idea of concealment is to be able to have the weapon of your choice, on your person, undetectable, easily accessible and relatively comfortable.
So try out different types and see which one fits you best. At the same time you should agile enough to use it.

Football: ND celebrates victory as family
Joe Meixell | Monday, November 19, 2007
After the "Alma Mater," after the "Victory Clog," even after "When Irish Backs Go Marching By," Notre Dame was still there.
Not just the football team, but everything that Notre Dame means. The students, the band, and even University President Father John Jenkins were still celebrating long after the final whistle blew.
Everyone in the Stadium was acting as one Saturday night – and not just in singing "Notre Dame, Our Mother." Wide receivers Golden Tate and Robby Parris and nose tackle Ian Williams danced the Irish jig along with the students. Underclassmen joined fans still in the stands to cheer the seniors during their victory lap.
And even when some players tried to go into the locker room and out of the cold rain they had endured for over three and a half hours, tight end John Carlson called players back out of the tunnel to go back to the student section to thank their classmates for sticking out this game – and this season – with them.
"It's kind of our way to show some thanks to them because I feel that they've stuck behind us all year long and we really appreciate that," the fifth-year senior said.
And the team didn't just go toward the students – it joined them.
Safety Tom Zbikowski, defensive end Trevor Laws and Carlson did their own mini-Lambeau Leaps into the student section. The students, desperate for one last souvenir from the Stadium, took their hats and wiped Zbikowski's sweat on them.
Laws, responding to the students' chants, followed Zbikowski into the stands to embrace any student lucky enough to be in the front row.
Carlson was smiling like a kid on Christmas when he went searching for an untouched piece of the section, wanting to become a more intimate part of the celebration.
'That's what it was all about. We were 1-9 and they were there with us the whole time. They stayed out in the freezing ran the whole game to be part of us. All the senior students, the whole student body, that's part of our program, too," Laws said. "It's great, and I don't think anywhere else, any other school in the nation has that kind of support. It's just a great feeling."
Irish coach Charlie Weis, an alumnus of Notre Dame who spent four seasons in the student section, understands that's what makes Notre Dame great.
"[The players] don't feel like they are segregated or on a pedestal," Weis said. "They feel like they are part of that group, and I think that our players like to share those moments with the students, because the students are the ones that have been there for us during all these trials and tribulations."
And even though the team hasn't always seemed as loyal as the students to this close relationship, it tried to make up for it on Saturday.
What a difference a win makes.

About me in nutshell!
Saturday, October 24, 2009
Hey to everyone who is going to read my blog.
To start with i'll introduce myself very simply.
I'm a 20 years "young" lady who lived previously a life of pain, suffering and
tears. I've faced so much difficulties and many situations that changed the way I
look into life, love, friendship and family!
At a young age (14) I lost my first love! Well you may say, what one knows about
love at this young age. But I know I did! When the only ones who you feel
warm & secure with, die infront of your eyes in a car accident, wouldn't
you change your mind about life? I started to believe in fate, nothing else in
our life we can change, and as a consequence I started eating to death! When
people around me started noticing the "fat" changes i blamed it on genetic!
I come from an "overweight" family, where everyone is overweight! But I knew
that I wasn't before, and although I do have the tendeacny to gain weight fast
due to this genetic factor I can still control my intake of food and avoid
being overweight. But I didn't. I felt the need for food. I wanted the security in
food. I knew that food is always there for me everytime I need it!!!
Then, fate came into play again. We moved to Australia from the
Middle - East. and again food is the only thing that doesn't change
from a country to another, right?
Not to mention, the death of two of my best friends due to various reasons.
Not to mention, the feeling of homesick.
Not to mention, the hardness in feeling as you don't belong
And the list will go on!
However, I lived another personality with people!
No one saw me ever crying "only my big teddy bear!"
No one heard me complaining or talking about anything that bothers me
I always kept it to myself. Because I felt like this is the me that No one should
know off! It is me from deep inside and if i started sharing it with someone
I may lose them and then what was the point?!
Nevertheless, I was successful at school, got top marks and graduated and
currently in my third year of my psychology degree. I choose psychology,
specifically for many reasons that I may share in another blog sometime.
University/ college was the changing step in my life! I started gaining my self.
I realised how much life could be different, the changes I could make and the
slow death I was driving my self into. I started exercising, cutting on junk food
and lost almost 15 kilos by motivation and willingness. But when I arrived at my
current weight "76 kilos", life wanted to come into play again and take
control! I lost the only and one very close friend! At that point, I realised the
truth, I realised that the way we live our life is the way it works out! I didn't
blame it on life this time, I blamed it on the bad habits my friend had,
drinking too much, smoking too much and many other problems! I realised
there is no turning back for me, I've to get my life back, I've for once to think
of what is coming ahead of me, I've to believe in myself from the deep inside and
not just fake it infront of people. I've to too many things!
And i found Sparkpeople by browsing the internet. And now I'm motivated
I want to lose the weight and look different and feel different by the time I finish
my degree. By the time I enter "Real life". By the time I feel ready
to be loved and love again.
Call me: Iwant2loseit!

Senators start fast, hold off Lightning
OTTAWA -- In the hours leading up to Saturday's visit by the Tampa Bay Lightning, Ottawa Senators coach Paul MacLean admitted to having a "concern" about his team's slow starts in afternoon games.
"There must be something to it if we're talking about it. I don't disagree ... 2 p.m. must be our nap time," said MacLean. "We've addressed it, we've talked about it, and this is another opportunity to set it straight."
Mission accomplished, but now they have to work on their finishes.
The Senators rebounded from Thursday's last-minute loss to Boston by scoring four first-period goals, then hanging on to defeat the Lightning 5-3 in front of 20,016 fans at Scotiabank Place.
Robin Lehner lost his shutout when Tampa's Tyler Johnson scored with 8:23 remaining in the third. Johnson added another one just over two minutes later and Ted Purcell made things interesting with 1:59 left, but Daniel Alfredsson's second goal of the game into an empty net sealed the victory.
"It probably was expected before the game started," Alfredsson said of the close final score, as 20 of the Senators' 31 games have been decided by one goal. "All in all, it was about getting the two points. Obviously, that first period really set it up for us and I thought we played good throughout the game. But that's just the way sports are. When one team gets momentum it's not as easy to stop as you think."
Jakob Silfverberg had a goal and an assist, while Eric Gryba, with his first goal in the NHL, and Guillaume Latendresse had the other tallies.
Marc Methot and Kyle Turris each had two assists.
"Any time you're up 4-0 after the first period, the test now is to continue to play," said MacLean. "We were obviously pleased with how we started the game, and as the game wore on it got harder and harder for us to stay playing. That's focus and intensity.
"We did a better job in the last minute."
Johnson's goals were his second and third of the season.
"Obviously it wasn't enough," said the 22-year old center, who was playing in his sixth game and is filling in on the second line for the injured Vinny Lecavalier. "We played better in the game, but we just let it go on too late, being in that big of a hole."
Each team wound up with 32 shots on goal.
Silfverberg's eighth goal, off a deflection from the edge of the crease, and Gryba's milestone blast came 1:40 part on the second side of the midway mark. Latendresse scored less than three minutes later from a sharp angle, giving him four goals in 13 games.
Alfredsson added his first goal of the game and eighth of the season just 10 seconds before the intermission.
The Senators delayed the comeback attempt by holding Steven Stamkos, the NHL's leading goal scorer, to just one shot on goal.
"We came back, but it's about wins in this league," said Stamkos. Obviously, it wasn't good enough.
"We just didn't execute and we turned the puck over. You can't give a team a 4-0 lead and expect to win games in this league."
It was the second consecutive loss for the Lightning, who are in Winnipeg to face the Jets Sunday.
The Senators have a day off, then host the New York Islanders Monday.
NOTES: Defenseman Sergei Gonchar set a new Senators franchise record by picking up an assist in his 10th straight game. The previous record of nine games was held by Alfredsson and Jason Spezza ... Tampa coach Guy Boucher made a goaltending change just past the 17-minute mark of the first period, replacing starter Mathieu Garon with Cedrick Desjardins after the Senators scored their third goal on their 11th shot ... Taking part in the pre-game warmup was newly-signed 6-foot-8 Lightning defenseman Andrej Suster, who's expected to make his NHL debut Tuesday at home against Buffalo. Boucher plans to "ease" him into the lineup and give him limited minutes by dressing seven defensemen ... Enforcer Matt Kassian had his first fight in his fifth game as a Senator when he put a beating on B.J. Crombeen in the opening period ... The Lightning entered the day with a goals-per-game average of 3.27 that was tied for second in the NHL.

 Where's the rationale for introducing such text under @hidden rather than in the ARIA specification or the WAI-ARIA section of the HTML5 spec? Saying "The text children of the element will be flattened to a string" is a direct contradiction of the ARIA specification which takes account of various elements and attributes in the calculation of the accessible name and description. Markup is a "string" so "string" is the wrong word to use here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/String_(computer_science) Also, you didn't explain why "should" is the appropriate conformance language here… http://dev.w3.org/html5/spec/infrastructure.html#conformance-requirements -- Benjamin Hawkes-LewisReceived on Saturday, 21 April 2012 02:25:14 UTC

Hey bud,
Can't remember why the name is so familiar to me.
At any rate. Shoot me a tell in game on Butcherblock.Saltyknuckles
I would like to have solid illu like you running in our mage group. I'd rather see our current illu on her warden as we need the warden and with your gear and history (that name is from somewhere I know it) I'm sure it will be a good fit.
Feel free to look us up on progression. Butcherblock - The Covenant. We are a little behind a few of the guilds there but I just joined recently and was made officer and for me the name of the game is "momentum". We have already hit up some new progression and I have some plans in the works for continued success.
Shoot me a tell in game.

He teaches our young people it's OK to lie as long as cause is good?
- Published in Letters
To The Daily Sun,
I read Dr. Maloof's letter in the Saturday edition of The Daily Sun. In it he opined that "the end justifies the means" and indicated that it's just hunky dory for the president to lie and connive if that's what it takes to achieve his goals . . . whether we the people like it or not. He also indicated that it's naive on our part to expect otherwise. Oy vey!
Now, isn't that just hunky dory, too, for one of those erudite, condescending types, who teach our young people, to tell them it's okay to lie or deceive as long as it gets you what you want. That's some lesson plan!
At what point do we finally put "tenure" in the trash bin and start paying on merit . . . just like we do in the non-tenured, productive world?
And please, will someone check the water at Plymouth State.

Fairy tales are not supposed to have unhappy endings. Barbaro was to leave New Bolton Medical Center, walking soundly with his head held high, and live happily ever after. But Thoroughbreds, despite the fairy tales they inspire, live in a different realm than Walt Disney.
So, on the morning of Jan. 29, Dr. Dean W. Richardson, head of surgery at New Bolton Medical Center, made the somber announcement most everyone had been prepared to hear more than eight months earlier. Barbaro had been euthanized. The wave of grief that was anticipated back then now came swiftly and unexpectedly.
After so many months of hope and high expectations, Barbaro's fight for life and the miracle story he had written were over. One did not have to hear Richardson's words to know they were as heavy as the millions of hearts around the world that had embraced Barbaro and his struggle to survive.
What made the news of Barbaro's death even harder to accept was that only a month earlier, talk had begun about the colt's possible release from New Bolton. When Richardson, although still guarded, said that Barbaro's release could come in the "not so distant future," it brought a wave of elation and optimism. The horse was happy, eating, and enjoying his daily walks and grazing sessions. Christmas brought a deluge of cards and gifts to New Bolton, and spirits were high.
But just a month later, Dr. Richardson and owners Roy and Gretchen Jackson were forced to come to the realization that they had run out of miracles.
Having witnessed live the shocking breakdown of Ruffian and the horrific spills of Go for Wand and Pine Island, it is difficult to come to terms with the question: which is worse, watching the quick, relatively painless deaths of those magnificent fillies, or riding the roller-coaster of emotions that continued for more than eight months with Barbaro, ultimately leading to the same fate?
The answer, at least in Barbaro's case, is the latter. The colt proved that greatness does not have to be achieved only on the racetrack. His incredible will and indefatigable spirit kept him alive long enough to show the world just how much emotion is capable of pouring out of one's heart for a Thoroughbred racehorse, and how far the field of veterinary medicine has come. It just hasn't come quite far enough; maybe it never will.
It was not disease or injury that ended Barbaro's life; it was recovery. If there is a flaw in nature's power of healing, it is that it cannot be applied to the Thoroughbred, to whom the words stationary and prone do not co-exist. Infused with the fiery blood of its ancestors, the Thoroughbred's impetuous nature sadly is in constant conflict with its fragile legs, and it is that nature that often leads to its demise.
Rather than dwell on the outcome, it is best to concentrate on the heroic efforts that were made to save a horse that lived eight months longer than he should have. It is best to concentrate on an unknown veterinarian, whose dedication, wit, and wisdom turned him into a James Herriot-like figure.
But what of future incidents of this nature regarding high-profile horses? Had Barbaro lived, similar efforts likely would have been made. But when Barbaro died, hope died with him, and without hope, you have to wonder if owners will be willing to invest the money and emotions needed to save a horse with this type of catastrophic injury. To come this close and defy such long odds, it would be a shame if others didn't follow in the footsteps paved by Barbaro and Dr. Richardson.
Although Barbaro had to endure a great deal of physical and mental anguish, he also experienced the ultimate in human kindness and compassion, while being pampered like the noblest of kings. And he leaves behind a legacy that far transcends his stunning victory in the Kentucky Derby.
Cervantes said, "The guts carry the feet, not the feet the guts." Barbaro's guts carried his feet to victory after victory. But they carried his heart a lot farther.

The user environment provided is often a strong factor in the acceptance of any computer language or computing paradigm. Logic programming is one field which lags behind others in terms of "environments". Thus, it remains an important area for development, especially if proponents of logic programming wish to establish wider use and acceptance of the paradigm.
This workshop provides a forum for researchers and logic programming system developers to exchange ideas and results on all aspects of environments for logic programming. This includes work related to design issues, new techniques and tools, interface and informational content issues, and the solution of noteworthy problems arising, for example, from new logic programming languages or interesting application areas. Both state-of-the-practice and state-of-the-art presentations would be invited.
Specific topic areas relevant to the workshop include, but are not limited to:

Categorization and Naming in Children
Problems of Induction
In this landmark work on early conceptual and lexical development, Ellen Markman explores the fascinating problem of how young children succeed at the task of inducing concepts. Backed by extensive experimental results, she challenges the fundamental assumptions of traditional theories of language acquisition and proposes that a set of constraints or principles of induction allows children to efficiently integrate knowledge and to induce information about new examples of familiar categories.
"In a compelling account Ellen Markman outlines the objections to traditional views of categorization and provides a framework for analysing children's early conceptual development... Her analysis raises questions which should determine the research agenda in this area for many years to come."

Here's some vintage fly fishing film featuring Lee Wulff on the Miramichi in New Brunswick, fishing for Atlantic salmon. One of the best parts of this film is the guide poling a canoe—while standing up—through rapids. And toward the end of the film Wulff pulls out one of his favorite pieces of tackle: a short rod, which he advocated for many types of fishing.

Shikha Dalmia had an interesting post up at Reason about why smart presidents do dumb things.
The team of the "best and brightest" that Lyndon Johnson inherited from John F. Kennedy embroiled America in an ignominy like Vietnam—not to mention Medicare, a fiscal quagmire that, unlike Vietnam, the country can neither exit nor fix without courting bankruptcy or seriously screwing over millions of seniors.
Moreover, George W. Bush's failures resulted not from his alleged stupidity, as his most vitriolic critics believe, but the brainiacs in his Cabinet. Bush himself might have reveled in his Forest Grump image. But he assembled a team of intellectual stars including Dick Cheney, who was so smart that Beltway Republicans and Democrats wished that he had run for president; Paul Wolfowitz, dean of the Johns Hopkins School of International Studies; Condi Rice, provost of Stanford University; and Donald Rumsfeld, who made his mark in academia, politics, and military service. But this Mensa-worthy team, backed by Ivy League neocon intellectuals, left a legacy of Afghanistan, Iraq, and deficits as far as the eye can see.
The prize for discrediting intelligence, however, goes to President Obama. Unlike Bush, he wore his intellect on his sleeve, raising hopes that he could fix the country with sheer brainpower. But he has presided over a deterioration on every front: Deficits are worse, unemployment is higher, a double dip is imminent, and we have added another foreign misadventure.
She asks why smart people are capable of making such dumb policy and concludes that it's because they are basically smart enough to talk themselves into anything. I think that grazes the point. It's not like being smart is an impediment to being a good governor. Chris Christie is pretty smart. So is Paul Ryan. So was Ronald Reagan. Our Founding Fathers were the most educated men of their time.
So why has the concentration of intellect in Washington failed us? It's because the current generation of intellectual titans are mired in groupthink and unable to accept the verdict of reality. Because they fail to realize that brains are a necessary but not sufficient condition for governance. Because they are, as hist_ed so succinctly put it, "Ivory Tower Dumb".
The difference between smart people and dumb people is not that smart people have good ideas and dumb people have bad ones (although the former are statistically less likely to have ideas that begin with "Watch this!") The difference is that smart people have ideas and dumb people don't. Really smart people — and I've been around a few — are fountains of ideas. For a smart person, especially one with Ivy on their degree, all of these ideas seem brilliant.
But they're not. Most ideas, no matter how beautiful they seem and no matter how much intellectual firepower is behind them, suck. The only way to tell the good ideas from the bad ideas is to try them out on reality, accept reality's verdict and use any failure to inform better ideas.
Almost every business owner in America has had a business fail. Steve Jobs, memorialized last week as the most brilliant businessman in America, had numerous mis-steps along the way. Netflix, a smart company, just reversed course on an incredibly dumb business decision (hopefully not too late to save the company). When you look at some of the worst business decisions in history, you'll frequently find they were dreamt up by smart people. The guys who made New Coke weren't morons; they were smart people who were dead wrong, who extrapolated an idea badly because they were missing information.
For every scientific theory supported by acres of evidence, there are a dozen that not only failed, but failed badly. When I was a graduate student, all smart people regarded the cosmological constant as Einstein's biggest blunder. Now it's cannon. And Einstein himself was wrong about quantum mechanics. Robert Millikan, a brilliant physicist, famously predicted that the atom would not produce enough energy to blow the whistle on a peanut vendor's cart. Kepler said he stumbled on the Laws of Planetary Motion only by exhausting every other possibility. Edison failed a hundred times as often as he succeeded.
Communism and fascism had tons of smart people who thought they were great ideas. Both Keynesian and Austrian economics have geniuses supporting them. There's not a failed political idea out there that hasn't had a team of PhD's, Ivy League professors and Rhodes Scholars insisting it was awesome.
Americans especially can get fooled by smart people because the smart men who founded our country got it right (mostly). But that had less to do with genius than with collaboration. As individuals, they were perfectly capable of idiocy. Jefferson opposed industrialization; Adams signed the Alien and Sedition Acts; Hamilton tried to get us into dumb wars; Burr killed Hamilton; Franklin wanted all blacks sent back to Africa. They achieved great things because they argued out their ideas, made compromises and ultimately yielded when reality issued is verdict. They amended the Constitution twice immediately after it passed to correct blunders.
One of the most important books of the last decade or so is James Surowiecki's The Wisdom of Crowds. He demonstrates the way that smart people get lost in bad ideas. Using the Columbia disaster, where a bunch of brilliant engineers signed off on a re-entry that killed seven people, he shows the two flaws that make smart people do stupid things: groupthink and stubbornness; a tendency for people to start to all think alike under peer pressure and a refusal to admit when a mistake has been made. The former is a big reason, incidentally, that academia is so liberal. When you're surrounded by like-thinking people, it's hard to go against the grain.
Ideas are great. But they ultimately have to be tested against reality and you have to accept reality's verdict. I've been harping on liberals lately for refusing to admit their Keynesian stimulus didn't work, so I'll take a swipe at conservatives. It has become cannon that tax cuts are needed to stimulate the economy. This is despite a lost decade in which taxes were the lowest since before World War II, but jobs grew slowly, incomes stagnated and we ended up making almost no progress. This is despite four separate waves of tax cuts aimed specifically at this recession. But groupthink and stubbornness keeps smart conservatives from acknowledging that tax cuts may not be the answer. Hell, I don't want to acknowledge that myself. I still think a payroll taxcut isn't a bad idea.
That's what I think we need to look for in politicians in general and a President in particular. A willingness to acknowledge mis-steps, to go against the grain and to acknowledge reality's verdict on seemingly good ideas. I had hoped that Obama would be that way, but his stubbornness on Keynesian economics is just the latest illustration of his refusal to acknowledge reality. Of course, I don't know that any of the GOP field feel bound by reality.
To me, this is one of conservatism's core values: a willingness to acknowledge reality over dogma. Reagan reversed course on taxes when the deficit got big, reversed course on nuclear talks when the landscape changed and reversed course on Catastrophic Care when seniors went into open rebellion. Now this would be seen as flip-flopping. Then it was seen as a virtue: changing your opinion when the facts changed. Today's slate — both liberal and conservative — seem more interested in just ignoring the facts. And all the brains in the world can't overcome that.

I think I will be way too nervous to sleep separately!! I will need a sense of normalcy, or I'm afraid my nerves will get the best of me! I am really looking forward to waking up together on our wedding day, and having my FI by my side to calm me down!!
On the other hand, I totally get that there would be excitement in sleeping separately...but I just don't think I could do it!!
Where is your FI staying the night before the wedding?

Tokyo, Japan (PRWeb UK) November 5, 2010
A new analysis technique for the design and optimization of beam optics has successfully been used to model the group behavior of electron beams over a linear accelerator, paving the way for its use at linear accelerator based light source facilities around the world. The technique contributes to improved operation of the X-ray Free-Electron Laser (XFEL) under construction at the RIKEN SPring-8 synchrotron radiation facility (Fig. 1), whose intense beams will open a unique window onto the minuscule structure of molecules and the rapid reaction of chemical species.
Despite its key importance to all fields of science, the world of atoms and molecules exists beyond the reach of traditional observation techniques, holding back progress in research on everything from molecular biology to nanotechnology.
The new XFEL at RIKEN, Japan's flagship research institute, will shed first-ever light on this hidden world, delivering radiation one billion times brighter and with pulses one thousand times shorter than existing X-ray sources such as SPring-8. The XFEL facility will be only the second laser of its kind in the world when it opens in 2011.
Obtaining a stable XFEL beam, however, is not an easy task. To do so, the transverse distribution of electrons ejected from the XFEL's linear accelerator must be carefully calibrated each time conditions change to match the configuration of magnets (undulators) where X-ray laser radiation is emitted (Fig. 2). In experiments with a small test accelerator, researchers performed this calibration by directly measuring the laser intensity, but the full-sized XFEL is too complicated for this approach to work.
The new technique, developed at RIKEN and the Japan Synchrotron Radiation Research Institute (JASRI), solves this problem by rapidly and precisely computing the effect of changes in optics using information on electron beam distributions after full bunch compression (Fig. 3). By doing so, the technique plays a key role in ensuring the successful operation of the XFEL, whose intense beams promise to herald a new era of scientific exploration and discovery.

There's no need to worry about the NSA collecting your e-mails or Facebook collecting your data, unless you have something to hide. Or have a penis. Because if you have a penis and haven't done something wrong, you're not thinking hard enough about all the things you've ever done. Now you remember. And so does the internet.
The new surveillance state is a disaster for men. Yes, all that NSA snooping is probably helping the government stop terrorists. And Google selling our web history to advertisers undoubtedly keeps us from seeing ads for things we don't need, such as tampons and John Mayer albums. But this massive data collection is also a digital bread-crumb trail for our girlfriends to follow.
I'm not even talking about cheating. Or sneaking out to drink. Or to gamble. Or to smoke crack cocaine while we're supposed to be mayoring Toronto. We do horrible things all day long that mean so little to us we don't even remember them. Cardinal Richelieu said, "If one would give me six lines written by the hand of the most honest man, I would find something in them to have him hanged." And Cardinal Richelieu was a dude. A woman would need only one line.
When I started dating my now wife in the digital innocence of the late 1990s, I left her in my office with my computer on and my e-mail program open. Because I'd never cheated, I was fine with her looking at my e-mails. Until she did.
She found an e-mail I'd sent to an ex-girlfriend, and she was furious. This confused me since I hadn't written anything bad. Except I had and didn't even know it. I wrote about how I'd read the class-notes section of our college alumni magazine to see if she'd gotten married. Which, I came to realize after hours of fighting and crying with my now wife, was indeed deeply flirty. Also deeply pathetic.
Even medical records have been stolen and posted online. Yes, it's happening mostly to celebrities, but we're next. And when we talk about medical records, what we're really talking about is women finding out we have herpes before we find the right moment to tell them, which is when we're fake crying over the story of our cheating, herpes-ridden ex-girlfriend, who may or may not exist.
Here's everything your girlfriend could know: If you have an alarm system that provides a website or an app, she has a record of every time you leave and enter your house and what door you used, so there's no more being a backdoor man. She can find out from a quick search the price of any houses you've owned, how much you owe on them, if you've been divorced, your political donations and your criminal record. If she suspects you're cheating, she can ask you to install the Find My Friends app on your phone so she can always see exactly where you are. Turning the Find My Friends app off is way more suspicious than just letting it show that you're at the Mustang Ranch. You can at least claim you were driving through the middle of Nevada when your car broke down on a pile of herpes.
This isn't just paranoia: Women really are using technology to compile dossiers on us. The Lulu app allows women to numerically score men they've dated and assign them hashtags such as #NeverSleepsOver, #FuckedMeAndChuckedMe and #AlwaysPays. It's turning the world into a small liberal arts college where if you mess up once, you never get the chance to mess up all over someone else. Though if I know anything about women, the guys who are going to get the most action are the ones hashtagged "FuckedMeAndChuckedMe."
Technology is a cage keeping us from being our natural outlaw selves. We can't drive through tollbooths when we discover we don't have exact change, because cameras are shooting our license plates. If you mouth off to a cop, he can't even beat you silly with a club without being videotaped. Thanks to that rewards program card, your drugstore knows everything you buy there, as does your credit card company, which sells it to huge data-mining firms. We are on electronic leashes, and that is not a very masculine look.
We're just a few years from a world where everyone wears Google Glass, allowing people to look at us while our photos pop up in the corner of their eyes like mug shots, listing all the horrible things we've done: tried to convince a girlfriend to have a threesome she clearly didn't want; added an extra day in Las Vegas to a business trip that wasn't in Las Vegas; worked as a theater director in college. All the data will lead to so much shaming that we'll be aware of every impure instinct, sweating to tame each one. All this civilizing will take the Tom Sawyer out of us, and we'll slowly transmogrify into soft, unattractive Stepford men. Our species will die out as we drink nonfat lattes and ask each other how our day was.
Sure, you can hide your e-mail through a Hushmail account, pay with Bitcoins and surf the deep web, but that's like telling everyone you're doing something majorly shady when you're doing something just a tiny bit shady. Instead, we all need to roll back our digital dependency and reclaim a little mystery. Get in the habit of turning off our phones for a couple of hours every day. Keep the GPS off unless we're lost. Don't post everything we do on Twitter and Facebook because then it looks weird when we don't. It's either that or we behave ourselves. And that's not going to happen.

Daily Recap: 7/20
Bisons split double-dip
The Buffalo Bisons split a double header with the Richmond Braves on Sunday. RHP Bryan Bullington got the start in game 1 - his first start with the Herd - and allowed 1 run in 4 innings of work. The only damage he allowed came on a leadoff HR in the second inning by Braves 1B/3B Scott Thorman. RHP JD Martin worked the final 3 scoreless innings to pick up his first AAA win of the season as the Bisons took game 1 by the score of 2-1. Michael Aubrey (2-for-3, 2B) paced the Bisons offense, scoring the first run on a Jordan Brown sac fly in the 4th and driving in the eventual winning run with a 2-out single in the 5th.
David Huff was the tough luck loser in game 2 as the Bisons were shut out by a final score of 1-0. Huff worked 5 innings of 1 run ball allowing only 6 singles and zero walks. He threw an impressive 44 strikes in his 63 pitches whilst striking out 2 Braves and recording 9 ground ball outs. The only run he allowed came on an RBI fielders choice groundout by Braves CF Josh Anderson. RHP Randy Newsom and LHP Rich Rundles each followed with a scoreless frame for the Herd.
The Bisons only mustered 6 hits of their own and left 7 runners on base in the 7 inning game. Jordan Brown (1-for-3) knocked his 22nd double of the season.
Errors doom Aeros late
The Akron Aeros lost 3-1 to the Erie Seawolves to lose the series 3 games to 1 as they scuffle out of the AS Break.
Scott Lewis continued to impress with 6 strong innings, allowing 1 run with 6Ks and no walks. After back-to-back rough starts to end the month of June, Lewis has responded with 4 straight great starts allowing only 3 runs (23IP). Lewis looked to be in line to take a tough luck loss, until Stephen Head stepped up to the plate with 1 out in the 7th and launched his 8th HR of the year against Seawolves reliever Matt Rusch to tie the game at 1.
Tony Sipp (0-2) took the loss for the Aeros, after throwing a scoreless 7th inning, Sipp allowed a 2-out, 2-run HR to Seawolves 1B Ryan Roberson in the 8th inning. Both runs were unearned after Erie SS Shawn Roof reached on Wes Hodges 20th error of the season to start the inning. Sipp has now taken the loss in both his appearances in AA.
LF Matt LaPorta was 1-for-3, CF Trevor Crowe finished 1-for-4 and 3B Wes Hodges also finished 1-for-3.
In other games......
- Lake County lost 7-2 to the Augusta GreenJackets. Ryan Miller's winless streak continues as he fell to 7-5 allowing 4 runs (2 earned) in 4IP. Miller hasn't won since May. RHP Josh Judy spun 2 scoreless innings and RHP Rob Bryson allowed 3 unearned runs over the final 2 frames off just 1 hit, walking 1 and striking out 2. The Captains made 5 errors in the game.
- Mahoning Valley defeated Williamsport 6-1 behind strong pitching by 2008 8th round draft pick LHP Eric Berger (5IP, 2H, 0R, 2BB, 4K). 2B Isaias Velasquez (3-for-5), SS Lonnie Chisenhall (2-for-5) and CF Juan Valdez (3-for-4) paced the Scrappers 13-hit attack.
- Kinston, DSL Indians and GCL Indians all had a scheduled day off.
