Established female business owners in the U.S. ranked their well-being more than twice as high as non-entrepreneurs and non-business owners, according to a new study issued Wednesday by Babson College and Baruch College.
The 2013 Global Entrepreneurship Monitor U.S. Report found that one out of 10 women in the U.S. was starting or running a new business. This rate was higher than any of the other 24 developed economies measured in the report.
Moreover, the proportion of women who wanted to grow their businesses by more than five employees in the next five years increased from 31% in the 2012 study to 36% in 2013.
Overall, there were an estimated 3.7 million American women with growth-oriented businesses.
The study also found that gaps were greatest between women and men in the 35- to 44-year-old age range in entrepreneurship rates, intentions to start and perceptions of opportunities.
Men experienced peak levels of entrepreneurship rates and opportunity perceptions compared with women in this age category.
"Unquestionably, people who run their own businesses in the United States are very satisfied with their lives," GEM U.S. Report's lead author Donna Kelley, Babson College associate professor of entrepreneurship, said in a statement.
"Women entrepreneurs show a substantial boost in well-being as their businesses mature, demonstrating the personal return on investment that comes with venturing into entrepreneurship. Our research found that the benefits of entrepreneurship extend beyond economic and social value. Clearly, entrepreneurship provides women a most satisfying career choice."
This 15th annual GEM survey of entrepreneurship around the world focused on 70 economies, examining how many individuals were participating in entrepreneurship, the types of businesses they were starting or operating and societal attitudes about entrepreneurship.
GEM is a not-for-profit academic research consortium focused on making information on global entrepreneurship activity widely available. U.S. leads entrepreneurial activity
Nearly 13% of the U.S. population (some 25 million Americans) was in the process of starting or running a new business—the highest entrepreneurship rate reported among 25 developed economies surveyed from North America, Europe and Asia.
An estimated 7.7 million of these entrepreneurs projected employing five or more people in the next five years.
Most U.S. entrepreneurs start businesses to pursue an opportunity, according to the report. Still, rates of starting businesses out of necessity are persistently higher than before the 2008 recession.
Forty-seven percent of Americans believed there were good opportunities for starting a business, the highest level reported since the report began in 1999.
Fifty-six percent believed they had the capabilities to launch a business — a remarkably stable indicator despite recent fluctuations in the economic environment, the report said, and highest among the 25 developed economies assessed in the report.
Thirty-seven percent of U.S. entrepreneurs expected to employ six or more employees in the next five years.
More than one-third said they offered innovative products or services to new customers with few competitors.
The U.S. has the highest rate of entrepreneurship among 55- to 64-year-olds in the 25 developed economies surveyed.
Older entrepreneurs are supported by resources and positive attitudes. More than half come from the highest third of household income.
They are equally likely as younger Americans to see entrepreneurial opportunities and are less risk averse. And older entrepreneurs are more confident in their abilities to start businesses than those 18 to 44 years of age.
The study found that adults with more positive well-being scores were much more likely to perceive entrepreneurship opportunities.
Happiness levels among women entrepreneurs surge as their ventures mature.
Opportunity-based entrepreneurs were more satisfied with their lives, which they described as "excellent" and "close to ideal," than those who did not become entrepreneurs.
Adult entrepreneurs with a positive outlook reported higher perceptions of entrepreneurial capabilities and lower fear-of-failure rates than those with lower well-being scores.
Despite these positive findings, the report found that U.S. entrepreneurs were missing opportunities for growth and globalization.
Only 11% reported that more than a quarter of their customers came from outside the U.S.
Less than 1% had more than 25% Canadian customers, and only 2% had that many Mexican customers.
Entrepreneurship in Four States
California has many international entrepreneurs and reports high levels of gender equality; still, necessity-driven entrepreneurship rates are also high.
In Michigan, entrepreneurship tends to attract men and people in mid-career. It has more manufacturing, but less international activity than is nationally reported.
New York shows high levels of youth participation, with fewer female than male entrepreneurs and a thriving business service sector.
Texas has wealthy, educated entrepreneurs with high-growth ambitions and an international scope.

Iran Today: The "Defending Shrines in Syria" Line
Saturday's Iran Today: "Supreme Leader is the Ultimate Decision-Maker"
Foreign Affairs Watch (Syrian Front)
General Ahmad Reza Pourdastan, the head of Iran's ground forces, has restated Tehran's line on assistance to the Syrian regime.
Pourdastan said the Islamic Republic i"would help train" the Syrian army if Damascus seeks such assistance, "but [we] won't have any active involvement in the operations".
The General repeated the comment of the head of the Revolutionary Guards, Mohammad Ali Jafari, from last autumn, "The Syrian army has accumulated experience during years of conflict with the Zionist regime (Israel) and is able to defend itself and doesn't need foreign assistance."

Science in the 20th Century and Beyond
Science in the 20th Century and Beyond
ISBN: 978-0-745-66049-3 May 2013 Polity 480 Pages
Download Product Flyer
Science's claim to access universal truths about the natural world made it an irresistible resource for industrial empires, ideological programs, and environmental campaigners during this period. Science has been at the heart of twentieth century history - from Einstein's new physics to the Manhattan Project, from eugenics to the Human Genome Project, or from the wonders of penicillin to the promises of biotechnology. For some science would only thrive if autonomous and kept separate from the political world, while for others science was the best guide to a planned and better future. Science was both a routine, if essential, part of an orderly society, and the disruptive source of bewildering transformation.
Jon Agar draws on a wave of recent scholarship that explores science from interdisciplinary perspectives to offer a readable synthesis that will be ideal for anyone curious about the profound place of science in the modern world.

Winner of the Choice award for Outstanding Academic Title
"Agar has abstracted and made manageable a range of rich and informed analysis. Anyone who thinks seriously about science will find it a very useful source."
The Economist
"Truly extraordinary in its depth and breadth, it makes significant contributions to the history of science and more broadly to our understanding of twentieth-century history. It is also remarkable in that, while written primarily with a scholarly audience in mind, it's nevertheless accessible and of interest to a wider audience, and an excellent advertisement for the discipline."
British Society for the History of Science
"Judging by the majestic scope of Jon Agar's new volume, we still have fertile big-picture approaches to guide us through the untidily evolving and multiplying plurality of the natural sciences. Generations of students might take great pride in critiquing the book, just as scholars have done for fifty years with Kuhn's (in)famously challenging The Structure of Scientific Revolutions."
Reviews in History
"Agar's approach focuses on the relationship of science to external ideas and practices, thus tying it more tightly to broader histories; it also emphasises patterns of discovery over the individual flashes of insight. Both are useful correctives, and scientists, historians and those who aspire to be either will all benefit from them."
Prospect - picked for 'What to read this summer'
"A masterful, yet eminently readable, synthesis, which is unquestionably an essential addition to the library of historians of science. I suggest it would also be of wider relevance to teachers of A-level science, giving us a little of the breadth occasionally."
School Science Review
"All technology has its genesis, but everyone seems to have been too busy to synthesise the elements and tell the full story. Jon Agar has set this to rights with this book, which will interest the scholar, the historian and the enquiring mind of any discipline."
Network Computing
"A synthetic history of a subject as big, broad and diverse as twentieth-century science is a major achievement. But Agar has given us something more than that: his book is an innovative model of how one might think about scientific practices at temporal and institutional scales much larger than those to which modern historical writing has become accustomed."
Steven Shapin, Harvard University, and author of The Scientific Life: A Moral History of a Late Modern Vocation
"Science in the Twentieth Century and Beyond is the book historians of modern science have been waiting for. It offers an ambitious yet masterly synthesis of the vast historical literature on twentieth-century and contemporary science. Through the concept of the 'working worlds' of science, it provides a unified and compelling analytical framework within which to interpret and illuminate this ever expanding literature and the development of the sciences from 1900 to the present. Jon Agar is a sure-footed and informative guide over this complex terrain; what results is a clear and comprehensive work of breadth and vision that few other scholars could have produced. Superbly crafted, elegantly written, inventive and thought-provoking, the book makes an absolutely invaluable contribution to the history of science. It will be indispensable to anyone who teaches, researches or is just interested in the history of modern science and the contemporary world."
Jeff Hughes, University of Manchester
"A fine chronological survey of the multiple worlds in which scientists worked in the twentieth century, responding to their demands by seeking to understand, to manipulate and to transform them."
John Krige, Georgia Institute of Technology
"A tour-de-force, covering a period of over a hundred years in which the growth of science has been exponential, and astonishing in its coverage of the various branches of science and their inosculations. There is no other book with the same range, and command of material and recent scholarship."
David Knight, Durham University
"Key ideas are articulated and linked in interesting and surprising ways, key contexts described and a few explored in detail, and the demands of these contexts are linked to ideas. This is a trope which offers the prospect of addressing the scale of twentieth-century science and rendering it in exemplary narratives which convey meaning to the reader in the recognisable form of human lives and work."
Robert Bud, The Science Museum, London
- Much-needed overview of the history of science from 1900 to the present day.
- Emphasises the crucial part that science has played in the bigger picture of twentieth century history, from Einstein's new physics to the Human Genome Project.
- Considers the interplay between science and the political world.
- Weaves together a wealth of recent scholarship into a vibrant, highly accessible synthesis.

October 4, 1993 – The Center filed a lawsuit against the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service for failing to designate critical habitat for the loach minnow and spikedace.
March 8, 1994 – The lawsuit resulted in the designation of 200 river miles of critical habitat.
October 13, 1994 –The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service suspended its designation of critical habitat on a legal technicality.
1996 – The Center filed suit against the Bureau of Land Management, which resulted in a determination that 19 grazing allotments along the Gila River adversely affected endangered species, including the loach minnow and spikedace.
1997 – The Center filed another lawsuit against the Fish and Wildlife Service for failing to designate critical habitat.
1998 – The Center settled a lawsuit with the U.S. Forest Service that banned cattle from streamside habitats on 57 grazing allotments.
1999 – The Center participated in a negotiation with Arizona Public Service, which resulted in the decommissioning of both hydro-power plants on central Arizona's Fossil Creek and the return of full water flows to the river.
April 25, 2000 – The Fish and Wildlife Service designated 900 river miles as critical habitat for the loach minnow and 800 miles for the spikedace.
October 2000 – The Center filed suit challenging 89 livestock grazing allotments on five national forests in the Gila River basin.
2001 – In response to a notice of intent to sue filed by the Center, the Bureau agreed to review the impacts of livestock grazing on 341,000 acres of public land in Arizona.
2006 – The Center launched a long-term campaign to protect the Verde River from water diversions and groundwater pumping.
March 2007 – Following a lawsuit by the Coalition of Arizona/New Mexico Counties for Stable Economic Growth and the New Mexico Cattle Growers' Association, the Fish and Wildlife Service withdrew its previous critical habitat designation. Former Deputy Assistant Secretary for Fish and Wildlife and Parks Julie MacDonald made a policy decision to define occupied habitat as occupied within the previous 10 years, which effectively reduced the area to be considered for critical habitat. After soliciting a new round of public comments, the Service designated 522.2 river miles as critical habitat for the fishes.
November 2007 – Pressure from the Center led to reintroduction of loach minnows and spikedace into Fossil Creek. In the same month, the Center filed suit against the Service for slashing critical habitat for the spikedace and loach minnow.
May 22, 2008 – The Center filed a notice of intent to sue the U.S. Forest Service for failing to consult with the Fish and Wildlife Service while management of Fossil Creek continued to adversely affect the loach minnow and spikedace, along with other imperiled native fish and their habitat.
May 5, 2009 – A judge ruled for the fish in the critical habitat lawsuit brought by Arizona and New Mexico counties and the New Mexico Cattle Growers' Association, concluding that it was more likely that the species' protected habitat was not expansive enough than that it was overinclusive, as the plaintiffs had asserted. The Fish and Wildlife Service agreed to consider designating additional critical habitat for the fishes.
July 20, 2010 – The Center sued the U.S. Forest Service for failing to monitor and protect habitat and endangered species in Arizona and New Mexico national forests — including the southwestern willow flycatcher, New Mexico ridge-nosed rattlesnake, Chiricahua leopard frog, Apache trout, loach minnow, Mexican spotted owl and spikedace.
September 21, 2010 – The Center challenged federal regulators to stop a natural gas pipeline that would destroy critical habitat for the loach minnow in the San Francisco River near Clifton, Ariz.
October 27, 2010 – The Fish and Wildlife Service proposed to protect nearly 900 river miles for the spikedace and loach minnow, as well as to upgrade both fishes' status from threatened to endangered.
February 2014 – The Center filed a cease-and-desist notice with the Federal Aviation Administration and Arizona's Department of Transportation to stop spending money for the construction of a new taxiway at the Sierra Vista Muni-Libby Airport. Initial work to support the taxiqway had already begun without an analysis of environmental harm, such as to the San Pedro River and its wildlife, including the loach minnow.

Paper Napkin Interview: Dishing with Evan Farmer
We talk boy bands and Nashville must-sees with the cute-as-can-be host of CMT's Top 20 Countdown
Interviewing country music singers is all in a days work for you. Has anyone ever left you starstruck?
Only one and that is Dolly Parton. She's so charismatic, humorous, and genuine. Few people have that combination.
And if you could go back in time, who would you interview?
Johnny Cash. I would ask him about how he did the unthinkable. That is, not being the greatest musician or singer but becoming a country legend through pure passion and drive. That's what intrigues me about great artists. They become superstars because of who they are as people.
How would you spend a perfect day in Nashville?
You would first find me at the Nashville Zoo with my three-year-old-son Garrison. Next, I'd head out to nearby McMinnville, Tennessee, for a lazy afternoon at my wife's family's cabin. I'd finish the day with dinner at MacK & Kate's Cafe, located just down the street from my house, and then I'd stumble home after a few margaritas.
What Southern tradition do you plan to pass on to your son?
We take family dinners very seriously in our house. No matter what commitments we have, we make a point to eat together each night as a family. I'm not sure the South has the trademark on family dinners, but there's something very Southern about sharing time with loved ones over a home-cooked meal.
Country fans are known for their loyalty. Where do you think that devotion stems from?
I think a lot of that loyalty can be attributed to country radio. The stations aren't just playing the same 12 songs on rotation. You'll hear 1991 Garth Brooks right alongside the latest Taylor Swift single. That kind of continued exposure gives country artists an extended career and chance at a true relationship with listeners.
What are the don't miss Nashville destinations for someone in search of the definitive country music experience?
First stop is country music's mother church, the Ryman Auditorium. The Grand Ole Opry and the Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum are also must-sees.
And where's the best place in Nashville to spot a country star?
Whole Foods in Green Hills. I can't remember a time I shopped there and didn't see someone famous. Seriously.
How do you take your barbecue?
I like it spicy and swimming in sauce. Tootsies Orchid Lounge here on Broadway is one of my favorites for barbecue.
Favorite Southern expression?
Bless your heart. It's not a compliment. I learned that the hard way.
What's your hidden talent?
In between takes on CMT Top 20, I frequently do impressions of country artists. I've got Gary LeVox from Rascal Flatts and Charles Kelley from Lady Antebellum on complete lockdown. And Lady A's Hillary Scott for that matter.
You were once a member of 2GE+HER, an MTV boy band parody. If you could put together your own fictitious, country version who would you include?
I would go for the unlikely suspects with the big boys of country music—Toby Keith, Jason Aldean, Eric Church. I'd have Trace Adkins as the pretty-boy front man.

That speech was definitely one of Morsi's top five mistakes.
Army concern about the way President Mohamed Morsy was governing Egypt reached tipping point when the head of state attended a rally packed with hardline fellow Islamists calling for holy war in Syria, military sources said.
At the June 15 rally, Sunni Muslim clerics used the word "infidels" to denounce both the Shi'ites fighting to protect Syrian President Bashar al-Assad and the non-Islamists that oppose Morsy at home.
Morsy himself called for foreign intervention in Syria against Assad, leading to a veiled rebuke from the army, which issued an apparently bland but sharp-edged statement the next day stressing that its only role was guarding Egypt's borders.
"The armed forces were very alarmed by the Syrian conference at a time the state was going through a major political crisis," said one officer, whose comments reflected remarks made privately by other army staff. He was speaking on condition of anonymity because he was not permitted to talk to the media.

VICTORIA, Australia, Feb. 16 (UPI) -- Hall of Fame golfer Karrie Webb captured her 40th LPGA title with a one-stroke victory Sunday at the ISPS Handa Women's Australian Open in her home country.
Webb, 39, shot a 4-under-par 68 in the final round in coming from five strokes back after the third round. She finished the tournament at 12-under 276. It was the fifth time she won the Women's Australian Open, with earlier titles coming in 2000, '02, '07 and '08.
She is the 11th player with 40 wins on the LPGA Tour, one behind No. 10 Babe Zaharias. Kathy Whitworth, with 88 LPGA championships, owns the overall record. Counting all tours, Webb has 56 titles in a professional career that began in 1994.
Windy conditions made play challenging Sunday in Victoria. Only five players broke 70 and none were better than Webb's 68. Suzann Pettersen, No. 2 in the world and among the leaders through the first three rounds, wound up with an 8-over 80, leaving her tied for 28th.
Third-round co-leader Chella Choi, who had her drive on the second hole go out of bounds, finished with a 2-over 74, 12 strokes more than her 62 from Saturday. She finished alone in second at 11-under.
Paula Creamer matched Webb's 68 and pulled into a tie for Karine Icher (71 Sunday) and Lydia Ko (73) for third at 10-under.
Minjee Lee was tied with Choi for the third-round lead but an early string of bogeys removed her from the title mix. She was 6-over Sunday.
Choi opened play with a birdie but, after the errant drive, had a double bogey on No. 2 and bogeyed the third hole. She then had 15 pars for a 74.
Webb birdied the first two holes Sunday and moved into the lead with a birdie at No. 11 that put her at 3-under for the day. She fell back with a bogey at 16 but a birdie at 18 moved her to 12-under and she wouldn't be caught.

Deliberate tax defaulters have been named and shamed by the tax office today. A list of tax dodgers has been published on the HM Revenue and Customs (HMRC) website for the first time.
The list is the latest move in HMRC's drive to crack down on tax evasion. Earlier this week the tax office announced it had signed a disclosure deal with the Isle of Man to deter UK citizens from hiding their money on the island.
A statement from HMRC read: "We have been given the power to publish these names to deter UK taxpayers from deliberately defaulting on their tax obligations. It also encourages the non-compliant to make a full disclosure at the outset of an investigation as doing so means their details will not be published."
HMRC is permitted to publish names only for 12 months, and only after all the individual has been given every opportunity to pay the tax and associated penalties.
HMRC said that it was dedicated to clamping down on the small minority of people who break the law, and finding and taking action against tax cheats who try to evade their responsibilities.
David Gauke, Exchequer Secretary to the Treasury, added: "The publication of these names sends a clear signal that cheating on tax is wrong and reassures people who pay their taxes – the vast majority – that there are consequences for those who refuse to tell HMRC about their full liability. It also encourages defaulters to make a full and prompt disclosure and cooperate with HMRC to avoid being named."
The Government has allocated nearly £1bn to HMRC specifically to crack down on tax evasion.
Tim Gregory from accountancy firm Saffery Champness said: "The publication of the list underlines once again that there increasingly no place to hide from the taxman, and taxpayers should always pay what they owe. Those who seek proper professional advice will see their tax bills mitigated to the extent intended by the rules, and they will be able to rest easy that they are not over-stepping the mark."

Part of Hawaii's tourism infrastructure was shut down due to the tsunami that resulted from the powerful 8.8-magnitude earthquake that rattled Chile early Saturday.
Hilo International Airport, on the east side of the Island of Hawaii, closed in advance of the approaching wave. The airport is primarily used by interisland airlines. Other shuttered tourist attractions included the Honolulu Zoo, the Japanese Cultural Center, the Polynesian Cultural Center, Waikiki Aquarium and Wet N Wild Hawaii Waterpark.
"So far there is no damage to anything," said George Applegate, the executive director of the Hawaii Visitors and Convention Bureau, moments after the first wave hit. "We just want to monitor the waves for several hours."
The port of Honolulu was also closed in advance of the tsunami.
Norwegian Cruise Lines' Pride of America was scheduled to dock in Honolulu early Saturday, but will remain at sea until the Port of Honolulu reopens. "While at sea, this situation does not in any way compromise the safety and security of our passengers and crew," NCL said in a statement. "Pride of America should be alongside shortly after that and we expect that the next cruise will depart later this evening." The cruise line expects the port will reopen at 5 p.m.
"It's quiet," said Tim Lussier, a student at Hawai`i Pacific University, who was waiting in Waikiki for the first wave to come ashore. "All the streets are closed. Everything is fine — so far."
Whether the wave is a significant event or not, the effects of the tsunami are likely to be felt for a long time to come.
"Hawaii has a history of dangerous wave action," said Michael Brein, a former Oahu resident and travel psychology expert. "Everyone who lives there has it in the back of their minds that they really have to pay attention."
Historically, visitors have not been as aware of the potential for a deadly wave, although after the Asian tsunami in 2004, tourists have become more conscious of the hazards. "This time, tourists are excited and a little scared. I think everyone knows how dangerous it could be," he said.
Some current visitors to the island will likely be displaced by the wave, according to longtime Honolulu resident and tourism expert Jeanne Datz Rice. Hotels in low-lying areas normally evacuate guests to higher rooms. "They're moved up three floors," she said, adding, "In a situation like this, everyone makes new friends."
Officials hope the publicity churned up by the tsunami won't affect tourism, which is struggling to recover from the recession. "There is no reason to cancel your visit," said Applegate of the Hawaii Visitors and Convention Bureau.

Germany's Strongest Man, Tofu is Gay & Vegetables Terrorize Men
The Evolution of Man: Patrik Baboumian
"The Evolution of Man" series is based around the article I wrote for VegNews Magazine's "The Man Issue". In this episode I interview strongman, Patrick Baboumian, who won Germany's Strongest Man 2011 Competition. Baboumian currently holds the German crown in strength sports and is vegan.
But It doesn't matter that Germany's Strongest Man is a vegan. When it comes to identifying with meat-eating, there seems to be an association with masculinity that reaches across many cultures. And likewise, when it comes to eating vegetables (or specifically avoiding meat) it's considered feminine or gay. According to the gay European news website "Pink News" a German ad agency recently was "outed" and forced to apologize for a 2009 ad that surfaced, labeling tofu as "gay meat". Not only is this homophobic and sexist (insinuating that both femininity and homosexuality are to be rejected as inferior) but it's also using those popular isms in an attempt to insult those who eat tofu.
Scholz & Friends designed the ad, which shows a steak branded with the words 'Tofu ist schwules fleisch' for a restaurant chain, but it was never used in public, Der Spiegel reported.
A spokesman for Scholz & Friends told Der Spiegel that the firm apologised for the steak advert, which has been hosted on the Art Directors Club website after the campaign won a prize in the competition it was designed for.
This example is a much more obvious form of the themes I've addressed again and again on The Discerning Brute. Typically the homophobic sentiment surrounding vegetarianism and veganism is underhanded. This ad, however, went with bold clarity. They apologized to the gays they offended (but not to women or those who eat tofu).
There was also a recent study conducted in the Journal of Consumer Research, and the conclusion was, not surprisingly, that consumers are influenced by a strong association of meat with masculinity.
"To the strong, traditional, macho, bicep-flexing, All-American male, red meat is a strong, traditional, macho, bicep-flexing, All-American food," the authors write. "Soy is not. To eat it, they would have to give up a food they saw as strong and powerful like themselves for a food they saw as weak and wimpy."

SKF Compact Tapered Roller Bearing Unit enables higher rail freight loads and increased profit
2014 September 22, 14:00 CEST
SKF has launched a new CTBU (Compact Tapered Roller Bearing Unit) with an axle load rated to 45 metric tons, helping rail operators to increase profitability by hauling more product with the same train
Gothenburg, Sweden, 22 September 2014: SKF has launched a new CTBU for railway operators that enable increased weight to be carried in freight cars designed for heavy hauls. The CTBU has an axle load rated to 45 metric tons, which means that operators can increase profitability by hauling more product with the same length/configuration train.
This CTBU from SKF is the only heavy haul bearing rated to 45 ton operational axle load on the market. This represents a transportation capacity increase from existing 35.5 ton axle load to 45 tons, allowing customers to increase transported weight of product in existing or new wagon fleets. The new solution was developed as a direct result of customer requests and meets the needs of railway operators who are trending towards carrying heavier loads worldwide.
Damage to rolling stock and infrastructure, plus delays to shipment represent the biggest costs for rail operators but the improved bearing life of the new class CTBU means less bearing fatigue. The result is freight cars with longer maintenance intervals and higher performance.
"The SKF CTBU is equipped with a polyamide cage and has several features unique to SKF, like the polymer spacer, which avoids fretting corrosion in contact zone between the inner ring and backing ring," explains Milan Soukup, Railway Business Development Manager, SKF. "The unit is sealed with a specially designed low friction contact seal, which rides on the inner ring shoulder. The calculated 'Rating Life' is up to 2 times greater than SKF Class G CTBU in the same conditions."
The CTBU for railway from SKF will be on display at the InnoTrans fair in Berlin from 23-26 September. Among other rail solutions on display will be the new SKF Tapered Bearing Unit, the SKF Microlog Analyzer and the SKF Multilog On-line System IMx–B .
Visitors will find SKF in Hall 22a, booth 606.

Everton cruise through in FA Cup
Everton swept into the FA Cup fourth round with a 5-1 rout of League Two minnows Cheltenham on Monday.
Although Everton are flying high in the English Premier League and harbour genuine ambitions of qualifying for the Champions League, Toffees boss David Moyes refused to rest his key players and sent out a strong side at Whaddon Road to guard against a potential third-round giant-killing.
And his senior stars proved too hot for fourth-tier Cheltenham as Nikica Jelavic's early goal and a Leighton Baines penalty put the result beyond doubt within 21 minutes.
Leon Osman added Everton's third goal soon after halftime and, although Russell Penn pulled one back for Cheltenham, there was never any chance of a comeback.
Seamus Coleman and Marouane Fellaini rounded off the scoring to ensure Everton, beaten by Liverpool in the semi-finals last season, earned a last-32 clash with Bolton or Sunderland later this month.
With 67 places between the clubs in the English league system, it was hardly surprising to see Everton, featuring eight of the team that won 2-1 at Newcastle last weekend, take charge right from the kick-off.
The Toffees opened the scoring after 12 minutes when Fellaini's curling shot from the right crashed against the far post and Croatia forward Jelavic alertly slotted home the rebound for his seventh goal of the campaign.
Everton were cutting through the home defence with ease and Jelavic shot wide after more good play by Fellaini before Scott Brown produced a superb save to keep out Baines' curling free-kick.
Baines wasn't to be denied and the England left-back doubled Everton's lead from the penalty spot in the 21st minute.
Cheltenham captain Alan Bennett was harshly ruled to have fouled Fellaini and the resulting spot-kick from Baines contained too much power for Brown.
Moyes' men killed off the tie after 49 minutes when Osman slotted the ball past Brown after taking a Baines pass in stride.
Cheltenham pulled one back two minutes later through Penn's powerful finish after good play by Kaid Mohamed.
But Coleman re-established Everton's three-goal lead in the 58th minute with a clever flick over Brown after exchanging passes with Victor Anichebe.
Belgian midfielder Fellaini rubbed salt into Cheltenham's wounds in the 89th minute with a close-range finish from Anichebe's cross.

English Teacher
Hi, regarding the following two sentences from a reading which one is a synonym for "look forward to, to see before"? "anticipate" or "awaite"? students have to choose one of them. there is no other option.
"unfortunately the mirror of the telescope did not provide the clear images that were anticipated"
"April 24, 1990, was the beginning of a long awaited placement of a powerful telescope in space"
I think only "anticipate" means predict and to see before and look forward to. right?

Neither is a good synonym.

"We're excited about being able to provide these Little Leaguers with a brand-new field on which to play," said Kennedy.

In 1971 we had started to withdraw our units and transfer missions to the forces of South Vietnam. In the minds of many the war was all but over. We weren't fighting to stem the tide of communism. Patriotism had waned. Who wanted to be the last American soldier to die in Vietnam? We were now fighting for each other – our brothers in arms.
The dying boy's eyes pleaded with me as he gasped, "GI, I be OK?" I lied. "Ya, you be OK, no sweat." His blood soaked the shirt of my jungle fatigues and dripped from my hands. As I lifted him into the ambulance, life slowly ebbed from the limp body, while mortar rounds slammed into the Army Republic of South Vietnam induction center in Qui Nhon.
It was the night of Feb. 22, 1971. Emotions had to be submerged. The image of a tough, seasoned military police lieutenant had to be portrayed. But, back in the solitude of my hooch, it was different. There it all came rushing back and I just kept repeating over and over again, "It don't mean nothin'!"
It was a coping mechanism that allowed me to survive the horror, bury my rage and go on with the task at hand.
By then the war was increasingly seen as un-winnable. Military morale was as low as at any point in our history. "Ticket punchers," who needed to knock off a tour of duty in country to enhance their careers, infested our military leadership. Meanwhile, back home, our politicians failed to support us and the peace movement led to disgust for the war and our soldiers who fought it.
In 1971 we had started to withdraw our units and transfer missions to the forces of South Vietnam. In the minds of many the war was all but over. We weren't fighting to stem the tide of communism. Patriotism had waned. Who wanted to be the last American soldier to die in Vietnam? We were now fighting for each other – our brothers in arms.
On Sept. 11, 2001, some 30 years had passed, but the rage returned. Once again a failure of leadership would cost American lives. Five months earlier I had helped arrange for a television exposé of security shortcomings at Boston's Logan International Airport. Despite the warning, nothing was done and now two planes commandeered by terrorists would slam into the World Trade Center and close to 3,000 people would die.
Shortly thereafter our nation would begin its conflicts in Iraq and Afghanistan. Initial success was diminished by failed attempts at nation building. More of our young men and women would be killed or maimed and for what? Iraq is now in turmoil and we are withdrawing from Afghanistan. Like in Vietnam, who wants to be the last soldier to die in an un-winnable war? The soldiers there aren't fighting to stem the tide of Middle Eastern terrorist fanatics. They are fighting for each other – their brothers and sisters in arms.
And now the sad story of Staff Sergeant Robert Bales and 17 dead Afghan innocents. It is so reminiscent of the My Lai massacre during the Vietnam conflict. And, where's the military leadership that allows for a fourth tour of duty for a trained sniper who's had a brain injury and suffers from anxiety and depression? As the administration and Congress fiddle and diddle, American blood and treasure continues to be spent on a losing effort. We see the same lack of political will and courage that we saw exhibited during the Vietnam War. If we are not going to win, then we should get out. Stop putting our young men and women needlessly in harm's way.
As the 50th anniversary of our country's involvement in the Vietnam conflict approaches, I ask myself what lessons have we learned. Are we simply repeating the same mistakes? The rage returns as I process the Bales incident in PTSD group sessions at the Brockton VA hospital. I look at what's happened and consider the failed leadership which now has our country on the edge of economic ruin. I watch an inept Congress so hung up on political brinksmanship that they can't get the job done for the American people.
Quietly I go to my room, hang my head and repeat over and over, "It don't mean nothin'!" Once again, it seems like the only way to get by.
The Department of Defense has announced plans for the nation to commemorate the 50th Anniversary of the Vietnam War, beginning with a Washington, D.C. event on Monday. The major focus is to thank Vietnam veterans and their families for their sacrifice. During the commemoration period, which will run until 2023, their service and contributions will be recognized.
Back in the late '60s and early '70s disgust, for the war and our soldiers who fought it, peaked. Many returning veterans didn't receive the "welcome home" they deserved. In my case, I was the officer in charge of a prisoner shipment from Long Binh Jail to the Presidio in San Francisco and then on to the Castle at Fort Leavenworth, Kansas. When I landed in California, in July 1971, my MPs and I met with jeers and derision, while our prisoners were greeted with empathy by the "flower children" at the airport.
Today, I'm hoping Americans will realize that the 50th anniversary provides an opportunity to make amends and recognize the sacrifice made by our Vietnam veterans who served with honor in Southeast Asia.
This Memorial Day let's remember those soldiers and let's also ponder the lessons we should have learned from that long, dragged out, dreadful war. Maybe then, just maybe, the 50th anniversary can provide sufficient reflection for us all to move forward towards a better future. I hope so, because I'm tired of having to say, "It don't mean nothin'!"

Another possible origin of the name was found. "This place [(Werneth, Lancashire) which adjoins to the town of Oldham], anciently Fernet, was held in the reign of Henry III. by Alwardus de Aldholme, founder of the family of Oldham. His daughter and co-heiress conveyed the manor to the Cudworths, a branch of a Yorkshire family; and from them the estate passed by sale to Sir Ralph Assheton, of Middleton." [3]CITATION[CLOSE]
Lewis, Samuel, A Topographical Dictionary of England. Institute of Historical Research, 1848, Print.
We can only assume that both sources are referring to that same family at different times. Early rolls list the first record of the name not in Lancashire but as Achard de Aldeham in the Feet of Fines for Kent. Richard de Oldham was listed in Lancashire in 1384. [1]CITATION[CLOSE]
Reaney, P.H and R.M. Wilson, A Dictionary of English Surnames. London: Routledge, 1991. Print. (ISBN 0-415-05737-X) The Yorkshire Poll Tax Rolls of 1379 listed Agnes de Oldom and Robertus de Oldom. [4]CITATION[CLOSE]
Bardsley, C.W, A Dictionary of English and Welsh Surnames: With Special American Instances. Wiltshire: Heraldry Today, 1901. Print. (ISBN 0-900455-44-6)
Further to the north, Hoddam is parish in the county of Dumfries, Scotland. "This parish comprehends the ancient parishes of Hoddam, Luce, and Ecclesfechan, which were united in 1609. Hoddam, in ancient charters, is spelt Hodholm and Hodolm, signifying 'the head of the holm,' and is supposed to have derived that appellation from its situation on the bank of the river Annan, where the ground is flat and rich, and what is usually called holm land."

GR Press furnishings on auction block
The Michigan Street building is open today and Tuesday morning for previews.
Doug Watkoski of btmindustrial.com, which is handling the liquidation for MLive/Grand Rapids Press, said there are about 1,200 lots of items to be auctioned. Michigan State University is the new owner of the former Press headquarters at 155 Michigan St. NW. Watkoski said he understands MSU will take possession around the start of September.
Watkoski said the auction is "basically, all the contents that are left," including possibly 500 or more office chairs, plus file cabinets, executive office suites and office cubicles accommodating one or more persons.
There is a great deal of diversity among the other objects for sale, he said. The items include dozens of framed photos, posters and significant pages of various editions of the Press that decorated the walls throughout the office areas. There's even an OSHA poster reminding employees to use gloves and hearing protection.
The building also had a cafeteria, and kitchen equipment and furnishings are included in the auction, down to the booths and the café drinking fountain. There was also a fully equipped maintenance department, and its remaining tools and equipment are on the auction list.
The printing presses that had been in the lower level of the building were removed long ago, according to Watkoski.
Some freelance journalists had been working for MLive in the building as recently as last fall.
The Press had a much larger staff in the years before the recession, when newspapers across the state owned by Advance Publications began downsizing.
As for the online auction, which starts Tuesday afternoon, there are "no minimums, no reserves. Most of the lots start at $5," said Watkoski. "Basically, everything there has got to go. We're trying to find new homes for a lot of stuff that is still very usable."
Some of the equipment is apparently obsolete, such as a Leitz Focomat photo enlarger with stand. But Watkoski added that much of the equipment is "in very, very good condition."
"Some of the IT stuff, people paid a gazillion dollars for a long time ago. It's worth hardly anything, but if someone needs it, it's still kind of neat," he said.
From 8 a.m.-5 p.m. Monday and Tuesday morning, the building will be open to the public so potential bidders can preview the goods. The items can also be seen online at www.btmindustrial.com. Click on Auction Schedule and then on the listing for July 23/24. The website links to bidspotter.com, where photos can be seen and bids entered. Photos of the goods are listed separately for day one and for day two.
Watkoski said the first day of the auction will be mainly items more oriented to consumers, such as chairs ideal for a home office. Day two will be goods more appropriate for a business, such as the maintenance items, cafeteria equipment and office cubicles.
Watkoski is the president of btmindustrial.com, which is located on Three Mile Road in northwest Grand Rapids. The four-year-old company specializes in online liquidations of industrial and commercial equipment.
The new offices of The Grand Rapids Press are at 169 Monroe Ave. NW. The Press is one of several Michigan newspapers owned by Advance Publications, one of America's largest, privately held communications companies. Advance Publications is owned by the Newhouse family of New York, and has newspapers, magazines and websites in more than 25 American cities. In October 2011, Advance Publications created MLive Media Group from the former Booth Newspapers. MLive includes eight print newspapers and two websites in Michigan, according to an article published last year at poynter.org by Steve Newhouse, chairman of the digital division of Advance Publications.
Newhouse wrote in his August 2012 article that from 2009 through 2011, American newspaper print advertising revenue declined by 16.6 percent. Newspaper advertising revenue from digital ads during that time increased by 18.5 percent, although from a smaller base.
The Advance weekly newspapers in West Michigan also are part of MLive Media Group, in addition to The Grand Rapids Press, Muskegon Chronicle, Jackson Citizen Patriot, The Flint Journal, The Bay City Times, The Saginaw News, Kalamazoo Gazette and AnnArbor.com.

GLASGOW, Scotland — U.S. goaltender Hope Solo went on a Twitter rant against former player Brandi Chastain on Saturday for comments made during the broadcast of the Americans' 3-0 win over Colombia at the Olympics.
Solo was apparently unhappy with Chastain's criticism of U.S. defender Rachel Buehler during the NBC telecast.
At one point, Chastain pointed out that a defender's responsibilities are: "Defend. Win the ball. And then keep possession. And that's something that Rachel Buehler actually needs to, I think, improve on in this tournament."
After the game, Solo rattled off four tweets about Chastain. Among them: "Its 2 bad we cant have commentators who better represents the team&knows more about the game."
Solo also told Chastain to "lay off commentating about defending" and goalkeeping "until you get more educated" and "the game has changed from a decade ago."
"I feel bad 4 our fans that have 2 push mute," tweeted Solo, adding that she likes NBC soccer announcer Arlo White.
Chastain is one of the top all-time defenders for the U.S. team. She played in 192 international games from 1988-2004 and is best known for taking off her jersey to celebrate the decisive penalty kick in the landmark shootout victory over China in the World Cup final at the Rose Bowl in 1999.
A spokesman for NBC said the network would have no comment and that Chastain was unavailable for comment. A spokesman for the U.S. team also declined comment and said Solo would address the matter the next time she meets with reporters. He said Solo would not be made available Sunday.
Solo is one of the most outspoken players on the U.S. team. She was essentially kicked off the squad at the 2007 World Cup and sent home from China separately from the rest of the players after she criticized coach Greg Ryan for benching her for the semifinals.
Fences were mended, and she made her way back onto the team to become arguably the best goalkeeper in team history, anchoring the gold-medal run at the 2008 Olympics and winning the golden glove award for top goalie at last year's World Cup in Germany.
Solo capitalized on the groundswell of support from last year's World Cup run and appeared on "Dancing With the Stars," finishing in fourth place. Three weeks ago, she had what is believed to be the first positive drug test in the history of the U.S. women's soccer program, receiving a warning from the U.S. Anti-Doping Agency.
She called the doping episode an "honest mistake" and said the positive test — for the banned substance Canrenone — resulted from a premenstrual medication prescribed by her doctor.
Solo was also one of several athletes quoted in an ESPN The Magazine story about sex in the athletes' village during the Beijing Olympics. She said, among other things, that: "On the grass, between buildings, people are getting down and dirty."
Solo has also been promoting her book "A Memoir of Hope," scheduled for release two days after the end of the London Olympics.

Informace o kobercích Loribaf Loom Alfa - Natural z Indie.
These carpets are made in Bhadohi, India using good quality wool which makes them soft and comfortable to walk on. A different kind of loom is used in the production process which makes the work faster than traditional carpet knotting and results in a lower price. However, the newer method does not allow for advanced patterns so they are only available in single colours or simple geometric patterns. The value-for-money carpets are ideal for both a well-designed office or in a home with modern decor.

NEW DELHI — The police arrested a second suspect in the rape and torture of a 5-year-old girl on Monday and announced that the number of reported rapes in New Delhi had more than doubled since December, while molesting cases had risen sixfold.
The second suspect, Pradeep Kumar, 19, was arrested in the eastern state of Bihar, where the first suspect, Manoj Kumar, was found early Saturday morning. The two men are not related. Pradeep Kumar was arrested after being implicated by Manoj Kumar in the rape of the girl, according to Indian news reports.
Police Commissioner Neeraj Kumar said at a news conference Monday that the increase in the number of reported sex crimes in New Delhi was a measure of how much more seriously the police took such reports since the gang rape of a medical student in December led to widespread protests and the enactment of a new rape law. In addition to the sharp rise in the number of reported rape and molesting cases, cases of sexual harassment have risen more than sevenfold, he said.
Protesters besieged the police headquarters for the third day Monday, demanding the commissioner's resignation. But he said he had no plans to quit.
"If my resigning could prevent such depraved actions of society, I would resign 1,000 times," he said. "The problem is one of mental depravity. The problem is one of mental sickness. And that will not be sorted out by anyone resigning, least of all the leader of the police force."
He dismissed the idea that police officers could have prevented the rape of the 5-year-old or, indeed, could prevent most rapes.
"Rapes are opportunistic crimes committed within the confines of private spaces," he said. "Ninety-seven percent are committed within homes, 3 percent by strangers."
He then listed the relationships between the victim and the rapist in the cases that are now being investigated by the police, and they included fathers, ex-husbands, cousins, neighbors, doctors, landlords and a priest.
Manoj Kumar and Pradeep Kumar have been arrested on suspicion that they used chocolate to lure the 5-year-old into Manoj Kumar's apartment, where they raped, tortured and tried to murder her. The men are alleged to have fled shortly after. Two days later, her parents found her in the apartment after hearing her crying, according to reports in the Indian news media.
The 5-year-old's family said the police did not take their complaint seriously, did not search adequately and then tried to bribe them into silence after she was found.
The police commissioner said that he had suspended three police officials in the case and that, after an investigation, "We will make an example of the errant police officers who have not responded or not reacted in the manner expected of them."
Hospital officials said Monday that the child's condition was improving. Doctors had treated her for a blood infection and said that she would need further surgery.
Officials said over the weekend that the hospital was also treating another 5-year-old girl in a sexual attack, and Indian officials reported on Monday that they were looking into at least three other rapes of minors in New Delhi over a one-week period, with victims ranging in age from 2 to 15.

Los Angeles was the worst city in the U.S. for dog attacks on letter carriers last year, according a new report by the U.S. Postal Service.
The Postal Service released its dog attack city rankings on Wednesday as a prelude to National Dog Bite Prevention Week and urges pet owners to help reduce the incidence of dog bites to letter carriers.
"If our letter carriers deem your loose dog to be a threat, you'll be asked to pick up your mail at the Post Office until it's safe to deliver," said Ken Snavely, acting postmaster of Los Angeles, where 69 postal employees were attacked last year.
Nationwide, 5,879 postal employees were attacked.
Snavely said that in situations where a dog roams the neighborhood, delivery to the owner's neighbors could be curtailed as well.
Also, when letter carriers come to a customer's door, pet owners are asked to place dogs in a separate room and close the door, as many canines have been known to jump through screen and glass doors.
Dog attacks are a nationwide issue and not just a postal problem.
Nearly 5,900 letter carriers were attacked last year, but that pales in comparison to the 4.7 million Americans annually bitten by dogs — more than half of whom are children — according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
"Many dogs are cherished members of their family and people believe their dog won't bite, but given the right circumstances, any dog can attack," Snavely said. "Dogs do not reason like people do and they will react to their instinct to protect their family and territory."
Just last week, a woman was fatally mauled by several pit bulls while on a jog in the high desert community of Littlerock, north of Los Angeles. Three days later, a girl on a walk in Corona was attacked by a pit bull.
