Keeping a Close Eye on BlackBerry App Callbacks
Your BlackBerry application uses callbacks to allow the smartphone's OS to call into your application for specific operations. Your BlackBerry application itself likely employs callbacks to allow the threads it creates to inform the main process of your application that the thread has completed its job.
Here are a few things to keep in mind when dealing with callbacks:
Implement your BlackBerry application's callbacks as an interface, not a class. This allows you the flexibility to make any concrete class already in your application an object that can receive the message from the thread.
Provide both success and failure methods in your callback implementation. You should program as if something bad will happen so you'll be prepared when it does, such as a failure to reach a network service or a BlackBerry running low on memory unable to download a large file.
If your callback is going to modify what's on display or interact with the user, place the code to be executed within a Runnable object and pass that object into a call to UiApplication.invokeLater( Runnable r ).

Inuit Art
Inuit Collection
The Winnipeg Art Gallery has had a long and continuous commitment to the collection, research, exhibition, and publication of art by Canadian Inuit.
The Gallery began collecting Inuit art in the 1950s, when it was a new art form. In 1960 the Gallery was definitively set on a course of collecting Inuit artworks with the acquisition of a collection of 130 sculptures from George Swinton. Over the years, the Gallery's Inuit art collection has grown to its present size of close to 11,000 works largely through the donation or purchase of large collections. Each collection had been built carefully over time, and each had a particular focus. The enormous 4,000-piece Jerry Twomey Collection, received in 1971, was encyclopedic in scope, but others, such as that of Ian Lindsay, filled in focused areas of strength. For Lindsay, it was the early period, 1949 to 1955. Later collections amassed by George Swinton and Faye and Bert Settler highlighted the art and artists of the Kivalliq region. Other important sculpture collections received over the years have come from Bessie Bulman, Edith Prudence Hockin, Peter Millard, and The Hudson's Bay Collection. In 2007 the Gallery's collection was again strengthened by a donation of 246 Inuit sculptures donated by Dr. Harry Winrob.
The Gallery's graphics collection was significantly augmented in 1989 when1,400 prints and drawings were donated by Indian and Northern Affairs, Canada. In 1990, a donation of 626 prints was made by the Holman Eskimo Co-operative. In 1979 and 1982, fund-raising drives allowed the purchase from Sanavik Co-operative in Baker Lake of 882 print-drawings. The Gallery's collection of works on paper currently numbers 3,800.
The first significant exhibition of Inuit art was organized by the WAG in 1964. Since 1972 there has been a full-time curator for this collection. To date, over 140 exhibitions of Inuit art have been organized by the Gallery and 38 catalogues have been published, providing much research in this field.

Barickman Endorsed for Senate by 5 Central-Illinois Sheriffs
BLOOMINGTON — State Rep. Jason Barickman, R-Champaign, picked up endorsements from five Central Illinois sheriffs Wednesday in his bid for the Republican nomination for the redrawn 53rd Illinois Senate District seat.
The sheriffs and their counties are: Mark Doran, Ford; Mike Emery, McLean; Derek Hagen, Iroquois; Marty Meredith, Livingston; and James Pierceall, Woodford.
Barickman was appointed to the House in 2010 to fill the seat vacated by Shane Cultra, R-Onarga after Cultra had been appointed to the Senate to fill the seat vacated by Dan Rutherford's election as state treasurer.
Barickman is now challenging Cultra for the Senate seat in a district that stretches from the Illinois River to the Indiana border and includes Bloomington, Normal, Pontiac, Gibson City and Paxton.

Chris Brown Could Face Six Months In Prison Over Pet Monkey
Chris Brown got himself in some trouble, thanks to his pet monkey named Fiji.
Back in December, the singer/songwriter purchased the exotic animal and posted video of it in his daughter's, Royalty, arms. This clip would soon cause controversy because people were saying how dangerous it was for a baby to be around such a wild animal. "This is wrong on so many levels," one person said on social media.
"It perpetuates the idea that wild animals are pets, it funds illegal wildlife trade which is threatening the extinction of thousands of species and it glorifies ignorance. Such a shame that you haven't educated yourself about the horrors you are contributing to and promoting."
Unfortunately, Brown can now be facing some time behind bars for the odd purchase. "Turns out Chris never got a permit for the exotic pet, so authorities got a search warrant but before Chris' house got raided, he voluntarily agreed to surrender the animal," TMZ reports. "According to our sources ... CB could be charged with having a restricted species without a permit, a misdemeanor, that carries a maximum of 6 months in jail. The case has been turned over to the L.A. City Attorney."
Chris' lawyer, Mark Geragos, also told TMZ, "As I leave my office in Downtown L.A. and walk past people sleeping on the street on my way to defend people charged by the City Attorney with selling medical marijuana ... now spending taxpayer money on investigating monkey business, this completes the circle on his absurdity."

Miss Virginia Caressa Cameron is off to a winning start in the Miss America pageant.
All 53 contestants are competing in the preliminary rounds to make it to the final 15 for Saturday's final competition.
Cameron dominated her talent round of the competition; her rendition of "Listen" from "Dreamgirls" captured the audience. And she captured a $2,000 scholarship by winning the talent portion of the festivities.
The 22-year-old even surprised herself with her outstanding performance.
"When I started singing, I realized it was going even better than rehearsal, so that was pretty good," Cameron told the Fredericksburg.com. "Because at [practice at] 8:30 this morning, it was rough."
Miss D.C. Jen Corey is not letting one of this year's controversial judges deter her confidence when she answers her question. Corey said her native Washingtonian roots give her a leg-up on handling Rush Limbaugh.
"You always have to be prepared to talk intelligently about what is going on in our world," Corey told Politico.
The Miss America Pageant airs live Saturday at 8 p.m. on TLC.

The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission announced the recall of 62,000 GE Profile front load washing machines Wednesday.
The recall was announced after 19 reports were received of washer baskets separating, 10 of which resulted in the top panel of the machine breaking. The CPSC said the washers pose a risk to consumers and should not be used until repaired.
The recall involves GE Profile washers with model numbers WPDH8800, WPDH8900 and WPDH8910 and includes all serial numbers. The model number can be found inside the door panel.
The washing machines were sold at Best Buy, Lowe's, Sears, The Home Depot and other department stores between July 2008 and August 2011.
Owners of the recalled machines should stop using them and call GE Appliances at (888) 641-9739 to schedule a free repair. Customers can also visit GE Appliances online at www.geappliances.com/products/recall.

Beijing Weighs Bigger Private Role in State Firms
Reforming State-Owned Enterprises Has Been Thorny Because of Their Size, Political Clout
BEIJING—China is considering letting private investors take larger stakes in state-controlled firms, according to one official, in what would be a modest move toward greater private-sector involvement in areas of the economy dominated by Beijing.
"We welcome private capital to invest in the state-owned enterprises. And there are many ways to do that," said an official from the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission, or Sasac, in response to queries following a report by the state-run China Daily...

Square Roots In DFSORT

DFSORT's Arithmetic operators can do many things but the one thing they can't do is take the square root of a number.

California King Good, Best Mattress For Back
A california king size mattress is approximately 72 inches by 84 inches.
FREE SHIPPING: We ship these mattresses and mattress sets free to most locations in the continental USA. Special size mattresses and mattress sets take from 1 to 3 weeks to custom manufacture plus transit time. White glove delivery is a customer paid option. More shipping details below under SHIPPING.
Please choose either a mattress only or a mattress set above. The mattress set includes a mattress and foundation. Hard working Americans bench build every Best Mattress For Back with quality materials in a small family owned third generation factory the old fashioned way.
Our GOOD, Best Mattress For Back is designed around a 13.5 gauge 452 coil spring set with cotton pad protection on both sides of the coils. The innerspring pad is followed by a half-inch layer of comfort foam and topped with quilted cotton. Then a 1.125 inch sheet of soft comfort foam is inserted. Finally the fine damask cover is quilted to create a great plush/firm mattress.
This GOOD, Best Mattress For Back mattress incorporates our amazing plush feel on one side and firmer feel on the other side. Want a different feel? Just flip the mattress. An idea whose time has come, especially when you consider the poor value that a one sided "no flip" mattress offers.
The outer fabric is a long wearing high quality damask. The high quality padding and cushioning of the mattress are described in the cutaway section available in the image gallery.
DISCLAIMER: NOT A MEDICAL DEVICE: Please note, we do NOT sell our Best Mattress For Back as a medical device, a cure or a substitute for seeking professional medical advice. We sell our Best Mattress For Back as an outstanding quality mattress or mattress set only.
SHIPPING: Your Your Best Mattress For Back will arrive as a curb only drop which means that you will need two strong people to take it off of the truck and bring it indoors. Our shipper calls and makes an appointment with you. White Glove shipping is available. If you choose White Glove, they will generally bring your Best Mattress For Back (or set) inside and in some cases take away the packing materials.
WARRANTY AND RETURNS: This mattress or mattress set is custom made so it is not returnable for any reason. Orders cannot be canceled or changed once production has begun. Our mattress and/or Mattress and Foundation set will last for years. It is built from top quality componets and does not rely upon soft and cheap padding that can imprint and indent over a short period of time. However, we do not warranty our bed because we ship it all over the country and it is cost prohibitive to do a return. With proper metal frame support and proper foundation support (if you buy a set you get an excellent foundation) the mattress will last for years.

Niemann-Pick disease isa group of diseases passed down through families (inherited) in which fatty substances called lipids collect in the cells of the spleen, liver, and brain.
There are four most commonly recognized forms of the disease: Types A, B, C, and D.
- Types A and B are also called Type I.
- Types C and D are also known as Type II.
Each type involves different organs. It may or may not involve your nervous systemand breathing. Each one can cause different symptoms and may occur at different times throughout life.
Alternative Names
Sphingomyelinase deficiency
Causes, incidence, and risk factors
Niemann-Pick disease types A and B occur when cells in the body do not have an
If ASM is missing or does not work properly, sphingomyelin builds up inside cells. This kills your cells and makes it hard for organs to work properly.
Type A occurs in all races and ethnicities. It is more commonin the Ashkenazi (Eastern European) Jew population.
Type C occurs when the body cannot properly break down cholesterol and other fats (lipids). This leads to too much cholesterol in the liver and spleen and too much of other lipids in the brain. Type C is most common among Puerto Ricans of Spanish descent.
Type D involves a defect that interferes with how cholesterole moves between brain cells. It isa variant of type C. This type has only been seen inFrench Canadian people inYarmouth County, Nova Scotia.
Symptoms vary. Other health conditions may cause similar symptoms. The early stages of the disease may only cause a few symptoms. You mayneverhave all symptoms.
Type A usually begins in the first few months of life. Symptoms may include:
- Abdominal (belly area) swelling within 3 - 6 months
- Cherry red spot in the eye
- Feeding difficulties
- Loss of early motor skills (gets worse over time)
Type B symptoms are usually milder. They occur in late childhood or the teenage years. Abdominal swelling may occur in young children. There is almost no brain and nervous system involvement, such as loss of motor skills. Some patients may have repeated respiratory infections.
Type C usually affects school-aged children. However, it may occur any time between early infancy to adulthood. Symptoms may include:
- Difficulty moving limbs (
- Enlarged spleen
- Enlarged liver
- Jaundice at (or shortly after) birth
- Learning difficulties and intellectual decline (
- Seizures
- Slurred, irregular speech
- Sudden loss of muscle tone which may lead to falls (cataplexy)
- Tremors
- Trouble moving the eyes up and down (vertical supranuclear gaze palsy)
- Unsteady gait, clumsiness, walking problems (ataxia)
Symptoms of Type D are similar to Type C.
Signs and tests
A blood or bone marrow test can be done to diagnosetypes A and B. The test can tell who has the disease, but does not show if you are a carrier. DNA tests can be done to diagnose carriers of typesA and B.
A skin biopsy is usually done to diagnose types C and D. The health care provider watcheshow the skin cells grow, move,and store cholesterol. DNA tests may also be done to look for the two genes that cause this type
Other tests might include:
Bone marrow aspiration Liver biopsy(usually not needed) Slit-lamp eye exam
- Sphingomyelinase assays
At this time, there is no effective treatment for type A.
Bone marrow transplants have been done on a few patients with type B with encouraging results. Researchers continue to study possible treatments, including enzyme replacement and gene therapy.
There is no specific treatment for Type D.A newmedicine called miglustat is available for the nervous system symptoms of type C.
A healthy, low-cholesterol diet is recommended. However,research does not show that these methods stop the disease from getting worse or change how cells break down cholesterol. However, medicines are available to control or relieve many symptoms, such as cataplexy and seizures.
Support Groups
For more information, visit the National Niemann-Pick Disease Foundation website:
Expectations (prognosis)
Type A Niemann-Pick is a severe disease. It usuallyleads to death by age 2 or 3.
Those with type B may live into late childhood or adulthood.
A child who shows signs of type C before age 1 may not live to school age. Those who show show symptoms after entering school may live into their mid-to-late teens. Some may live into their 20s.
- Blindness
- Brain damage with
intellectual disabilityand delayed development of physical skills
- Deafness
- Death
Calling your health care provider
Make an appointment with your health care provider if you have a family history of Niemann-Pick disease and you plan to have children. Genetic counseling and screening is recommended.
Call your health care provider if your child has symptoms of this disease, including:
- Developmental problems
- Feeding problems
- Poor weight gain
All types of Niemann-Pick are
When both parents are carriers, there is a 25% chance that their child will have the disease and a 50% chance that a child will be a carrier.
Carrier detection testing is only possible if the genetic defect is identified. The defects involved in types A and B have been well-studied. DNA tests for these forms of Niemann-Pick are available.
Genetic defects have been identified in the DNA of many patients with type C. It may be possible to diagnose people who carry the abnormal gene.
A few centers offer tests to diagnose a baby still in the womb.

Seattle Mariners to scan fans for 2014 season
Fans attending Seattle Mariners games at Safeco Field will have to walk through metal detectors starting with the 2014 season opener.
The Mariners announced the additional security screenings on Tuesday. They comply with a mandate from Major League Baseball that all teams have a screening program in place by the start of the 2015 season.
The Mariners will have fans use walk-through magnetometers when their tickets are scanned at all public entrances. Fans who do not want to use the walk-through metal detectors will have the option of being checked with a hand-held device.

The team said bags and backpacks that fit within size requirements will still be allowed into the ballpark but will continue to be searched before fans enter.

Feds: Counterfeit Money Being Made with Everyday Office Equipment
(NEW YORK) -- Millions of counterfeit dollars are flooding cash registers, and more often than not, this "funny money" is being manufactured using everyday office equipment, federal authorities said.
Heath Kellogg, a graphic artist known as "The Printer," his father and four other men were busted in November after authorities said the men produced more than a million dollars in counterfeit bills.
The operation was shockingly simple. Kellogg, who is a self-taught graphic artist, and his team, allegedly used a printer to produce the front of fake $50 bills and printed the back of the bills separately before carefully gluing it all together.
"It's easier today because the technology has gotten so good and people can make better fakes," said Brad Garrett, a former FBI agent and ABC News consultant.
How-to guides, easily found on the Internet, guide people through the counterfeiting process.
A Rhode Island man was arrested in November after he allegedly learned how to use a chemical soap to rub off the ink on $5 bills, turning them into counterfeit $100 bills.
Despite the flood of fakes, the government said new security features on money, such as color shifting numbers and portrait watermarks that show the same face that's on the front of the bill, do make a difference.

Can't Stop the Water tells the story of Isle de Jean Charles, Louisiana and the Native American community fighting to save its culture as its land washes away.
For 170 years, a tribe of Biloxi-Chitimacha-Choctaw Indians has occupied Isle de Jean Charles, an island deep in the Louisiana bayous. They have fished, hunted, and lived off the land. Now the land that has sustained them for generations is vanishing before their eyes. Years of gas and oil exploration have ravaged the surrounding marsh, leaving the island defenseless against the ocean tide that will eventually destroy it. As Chief Albert Naquin desperately looks for a way to bring his tribe together on higher ground, those that remain on the island cling to the hope that they can stay.

WASHINGTON — A summer of modest economic growth is helping dispel lingering fears that another recession might be near. Whether that strength can be sustained, though, is far from clear.
Buoyed by a resurgent consumer and strong business investment, the economy expanded at an annual rate of 2.5 percent in the July-September quarter, the government said Thursday.
The expansion, the strongest quarterly growth in a year, came as a relief after anemic growth in the first half of the year and weeks of wild stock market shifts.
The economy must grow at nearly double the third-quarter pace to lower high unemployment, which has been near 9 percent for the more than two years since the recession officially ended.
And though consumer spending was triple the level of the second quarter, Americans earned less, on an inflation-adjusted basis, in the July-September period. That meant that many people financed their spending binges by cutting back on savings. Few economists think that can continue.
Economists believe that growth in consumer spending, which accounts for about 70 percent of economic activity, will be restrained until incomes start growing at healthier levels. That is unlikely until hiring picks up.
Paul Ashworth, chief U.S. economist for Capital Economics, predicts that growth will cool off in the fourth quarter and next year.
Nonetheless, the report on U.S. gross domestic product, or GDP, sketched a more optimistic picture for an economy that only two months ago seemed destined for another recession.
And it was delivered on the same day that European leaders announced a deal in which banks would take 50 percent losses on Greek debt and raise new capital to protect against defaults on sovereign debt.
Stocks surged on the European deal and maintained their gains after the report on U.S. growth was released.
"This has been a morning of encouraging news," said Jennifer Lee, a senior economist for BMO Capital Markets. "The fourth quarter may see some pullback in U.S. economic growth … but the positive details underlying the GDP report should help ease fears of a U.S. recession … somewhat."

Some months into the new year, you will notice a big change in the lighting aisle of your local retailer or big-box store.
The supply of 40- and 60-watt incandescent bulbs that accounted for 80 percent of the residential lighting market in the United States and occupied the most shelf space will be low. Their production will cease Jan. 1. Once the existing inventory is sold out, it will be gone for good.
These iconic bulbs, known as the A19 bulb in the lighting industry, have been fixtures in American households for more than 100 years. But, despite their long history of reliability and low cost, they are hugely inefficient. Only 10 percent of the energy consumed by an A19 incandescent is given off as light; the other 90 percent is heat. For this reason, the Energy Independence and Security Act of 2007 mandated their phaseout. The 100-watt bulbs were phased out in 2011, then the 75-watt bulbs in 2013.
In response, the lighting industry has developed a new type of energy-efficient bulb � the light-emitting diode, or LED. In the 40- and 60-watt equivalent category, every major bulb manufacturer offers several A19 LED alternatives; major retailers have their own house brands, as well.
For the conversion, manufacturers largely are designing the new bulbs to look and act a lot like the old ones. But some are offering a window into the possibilities of high-tech lighting when the bulb will become more like an electronic device.
Philips already has developed a bulb that allows you to wirelessly vary the color of the lighting from standard white to shades of blue, yellow, red and green and create a mood as you settle into a comfortable chair after a hard day's work, drift off to sleep at the end of the day or have a few friends over to share a bottle of wine. Also get ready for unconventional shapes and sizes.
What can you expect from the A19 LEDs? To find out, I home-tested 13 A19 60-watt replacement LEDs from four manufacturers � GE, Sylvania, Philips and Cree (an established LED manufacturer but a new player in the A19 LED arena) � and two house brands, Lowe's Utilitech Pro and Home Depot's EcoSmart. I compared these to each other and to a 60-watt incandescent bulb. By the end, much to my surprise, I came to prefer the LEDs to the old-style bulb.
Although I had a few favorites, all the A19 LED bulbs that I tested produced a quality of light that most households will find highly acceptable. The manufacturers, chastened by consumers' initial experience with another energy-efficient A19 alternative, have worked hard to make the initial experience with an LED a positive one. The first compact fluorescents, or CFLs, produced a color of light that many people found unpleasant. The bulbs also took as long as 30 seconds to reach their rated wattage, and they couldn't be used with dimmers.
To make the transition easier, the iconic shape of the A19 bulbs has been retained, but the purchase of an LED will not be as simple as it was with the old-style bulbs. There are significant differences, but the buying public should find them easy to master.
The most important one is the color temperature of the light. This has never been an issue with the incandescents because they all have the same 2,700 K, or 2,700 degrees on the Kelvin scale.
A19 LEDs, however, are manufactured in three different Kelvin temperatures: 2,700 K, which has a slight yellowish tinge; 3,000 K, a crisp white that appears to be brighter than the 2,700 K even though the actual wattage is the same; and 5,000 K, which is slightly bluish and often called "daylight." In my home testing, I only looked at 2,700 K and 3,000 K LEDs because these are the closest to incandescent light.
The 2,700 K, 3,000 K and 5,000 K color difference is a distinction that most people will notice, so it pays to check the packaging before you buy. It might be prominently displayed on the front or buried in the "Lighting Facts" box on the back under "Light Appearance." The Kelvin temperature will be indicated on a lighting scale. Somewhat counterintuitively, the "warm" color temperature at the left end of the scale is actually cooler, and the "cool" color temperature at the right end is hotter.
To keep the Kelvin color temperature straight, recall your middle school astronomy lesson: Old stars are red and cooler, new stars are blue and hotter.
Another difference between the A19 LEDs and incandescents is the color-rendering index, or CRI, a measurement of how the colors of objects illuminated by a given light source appear to the human eye. Color is truest with sunlight, which has a CRI of 100; incandescent bulbs also have a CRI of 100. Most A19 LEDs have a CRI in the 80 to 83 range, very workable for most applications.
In some instances, however, extremely accurate color rendition might be important � for example, a dressing area where you are selecting outfits for work or an important social occasion or a bathroom where you are applying makeup. For this, you might consider Cree's TW Series A19 LED, available online at Home Depot, which has a CRI of 93. For more general lighting situations in which you want colors to appear more vibrant, GE's A19 LED Reveal has a CRI of 90.
The first thing you will notice about A19 LEDs in the store, however, is the price � it can range from less than $10 to more than $30. This will be a shock when you're used to paying a $1 or less for an incandescent, but there is a very big upside here.
An A19 LED bulb lasts 15 to 25 times as long as an A19 incandescent, and that's just its rated lifetime. Unlike an incandescent, which burns out after about 1,000 hours, the A19 LED will still be emitting light after its rated lifetime of 15,000 to 25,000 hours. At this point, the emitted light must be at least 70 percent of its initial brightness, but it might be much higher.
When Philips' A19 LED was run for 25,000 hours straight � this took two years and 10 months � by the Department of Energy, the bulb was still emitting light at 100 percent of its original brightness. The manufacturers do not yet know when the light emitted by the A19 LEDs will be too faint to be usable because the technology is too new; theoretically, several engineers said, the bulbs could last another 25,000 hours.
The rated life of the A19 LEDs in the "Lighting Facts" box on the package will be given in years, not hours. For most A19 LEDs, the life will be 22.8 years if used three hours a day, the average use per bulb per day in U.S. households.
How long will an LED last in your household would, of course, depend on your own usage. For example, if you find you're using an incandescent bulb in a busy area like a front hall for about eight hours a day and changing it about every four months, an LED in that same spot would be at its rated 25,000 hours after eight years and eight months, and it will still work.
And you would be saving money because the A19 LEDs use 80 to 84 percent less energy. Engineers from the Washington-area utility Pepco said the difference in cost between purchasing and using one LED and purchasing and using 25 incandescents over the eight-year, eight-month period, would be $114, assuming an electricity rate of 8 cents per kilowatt hour, a cost of $1 per bulb for the 25 incandescents and $13 for the LED.
In many areas around the country, the initial cost of an A19 LED with an Energy Star rating has been offset with rebates from local utilities that can be as much as 50 percent.

Welcome to the world of orienteering! If you're looking for a new adventure--a lifetime sport that will take you, literally, off the beaten path, constantly challenge you, and let you discover new things about yourself and what you can do--orienteering may be the sport for you.
You'll find lots of information on the Orienteering USA website to help you learn about orienteering and try it for yourself. The New to O section includes:
Orienteering is often called the thinking sport because it involves map reading and decision-making in addition to a great workout. It's a sport that everyone can enjoy, regardless of age or experience. The competitive athlete can experience the exhilaration of running through the woods at top speed, while the non-competitive orienteer can enjoy the forest at a more leisurely pace. Most events provide courses for all levels, from beginner to advanced, and the sport has been adapted for small children and people in wheelchairs.
If you love maps, exploring, and the great outdoors, try orienteering. You'll be hooked for life!
More than 600 days of orienteering events took place in the U.S. last year. To find out about activities near you, check out the schedule of your local club. A few parks or clubs have set up permanent courses which you can visit at any time.
See you in the woods!

The radiofrequency system comprises the set of components for transmitting and receiving the radiofrequency waves involved in exciting the nuclei, selecting slices, applying gradients and in signal acquisition.
Coils are a vital component in the performance of the radiofrequency system.
In transmission, the goal is to deliver uniform excitation throughout the scanned volume. On reception, the coils must be sensitive and have the best possible signal to noise ratio.
An MR scanner generally contains a « whole body » coil, located in the cylinder of the machine, homogeneously covering the entire scan volume. The sensitive volume of surface coils, being placed in direct contact with the zone of interest, has less depth and is more heterogeneous. However, surface coils offer a better signal to noise ratio and imaging capacity with higher spatial resolution. The homogeneity and sensitive volume of surface coils can be improved by combining them into a phased array. They still have the advantage of a better signal to noise ratio, but at the cost of more complex signal processing.
Quadrature RF coils (circularly polarized coils) consist of at least two coils that are oriented orthogonal to each over (and both are othogonal to B0 axis). They have a better signal to noise ratio than linear RF coils.
Depending on the manufacturers and the type of coil, certain coils can be transmitters, receivers or both.
The radiofrequency channel also comprises analog-digital converters and a spectrometer to receive and analyze the signal.
Optimization of the radiofrequency channel is automated and carried out in several stages prior to an imaging sequence :
As the resonance frequency of protons is very close to that of the radio waves used in radio broadcasting and the FM band, the MR device is placed in a Faraday cage to insulate it from external RF signals which could alter the signal. The copper Faraday cage completely encases the MR scanner. Openings through this cage need to be carefully designed to avoid canceling out the shielding effect.

Koch breaks from GOP on gay unions
TAMPA, Fla. – Billionaire industrialist David Koch, who is helping steer millions of dollars to elect Mitt Romney and congressional Republicans, on Thursday told POLITICO he disagrees with the GOP's stance on gay marriage and believes the U.S. needs to consider raising taxes to balance the budget.
Koch, who is serving as a delegate to the Republican National Convention from New York, spoke to POLITICO after delivering brief remarks at a reception held in his honor by Americans for Prosperity, the political advocacy group he chairs and has helped fund.
Story Continued Below
The 1980 vice presidential nominee for the socially liberal — but fiscally conservative — Libertarian Party, Koch told POLITICO "I believe in gay marriage" when asked about the GOP's stance on gay rights.
( Also on POLITICO: Ad: Some GOPers back gay marriage)
Romney opposes gay marriage, as do most Republicans, and when that was pointed out to Koch, he said "Well, I disagree with that."
Koch said he thinks the U.S. military should withdraw from the Middle East and said the government should consider defense spending cuts, as well as possible tax increases to get its fiscal house in order — a stance anathema to many in the Republican Party.
"I think it's essential to be able to achieve spending reductions and maybe it's going to require some tax increases," he said. "We got to come close to balancing the budget; otherwise, we're in a terrible deep problem."
As for whether military spending cuts should be on the table, Koch said, "I think to balance the budget, probably every federal department has to take cuts in my opinion. We have to spread it around."
He stressed, though, that "I'm a big fan of the military" and said "I think we've got to preserve our military, no question about it. And I'm not exactly an expert on how much military we need, so I have to yield to [Mitt Romney's opinion].
"I'm more interested in economic issues than how much military we need," he added. "But I think we should gradually withdraw from the Middle East, you know, from Afghanistan and Iraq, so I believe in that. But I'm not an expert in that, so my opinion probably doesn't count for very much."

When is $1^5 + 2^5 + \ldots + n^5$ a square? I found that this happens sometimes: $n=13$ gives $1001^2$, $n=133$ gives $9712992^2$ and $n=1321$ gives $942162299^2$.
I feel that the identity$$\displaystyle\sum_{i=1}^n i^5 = \tfrac{1}{12}[2n^6+6n^5+5n^4-n^2]$$ will be useful, since it's all square powers except one.. but I see no way to connect that.

My company develops software for paid search managers, and provides educational support to the marketplace via twitter, blog, webinars, and conference presentations. This book is an in-depth look at one specific AdWords topic that I have written about and trained on over the past few years.
Book cover design for a paperback book.
Title: Google AdWords Quality Score in High Resolution
Subtitle: TBD
Author: Craig Danuloff
Trim Size: 6.14 x 9.21
The 'Google AdWords' part of the title should be smaller and 'superscripted' or run above the 'Quality Score in High Resolution' which is more the functional title of the book. The Google AdWords name is there to clarify the market and content of the book. Those words can be done in the Google style per adwords.google.com including the use of the multi-color google logo type (see amazon, many books do it).
Quality Score should probably be together on one line, so it's read as an entity and not the two separate (and common) words.
Quality Score is a metric google assigns to every keyword bid on in theAdWords system. This book is about how that metric is measured and impacts paid search accounts, and how to manage ads to get the best quality score results. As such, Quality Score should probably be the largest type, and 'in high resolution' is secondary and can be smaller or set off in a different font.
The design can (probably should be) clean with significant white space in the Google/Apple design style.
There is no obvious imagery related to quality score, so open to ideas on a cover graphic or image. Images related to ads as they appear on Google is one potential direction - although by no means is such a literal image required. I would be very open to something abstract which suggested a set of items which have been rated good or bad (keywords and ads each get arbitrary scores in google which determine the order and price of the ads) or something abstract that makes no suggestion but just looks good.
The book is aimed at people who manage those ads on the side of google, not searchers. They may be direct advertisers or people who work in ad/search agencies. They would be people who read 'searchengineland.com' and go to conferences such as searchmarketingexpo.com. This is an advanced book, very narrowly targeted and technical in nature, and will be relatively expensive (>$100). Professionalism, Quality, Technical Precision, and clean style are the attributes the cover should suggest.

IRONMAN 70.3 Buffalo Springs Lake has been a mainstay on the IRONMAN circuit for many years. This event maintains the personal touch expected in the early days of triathlon in a high-caliber race synonymous with the IRONMAN brand.
Lubbock: Good old Texas hospitality
Every race has a unique flare that entices athletes back year-after-year. That draw at Buffalo Springs Lake IRONMAN 70.3 is co-race directors Mike and Marti Greer. The Greers are two colorful characters who strive to personalize each athlete's experience. They are passionate about the sport of triathlon and it shows in the small details of everything they do. They have danced down the aisle of the pre-race meeting, ordered very feminine race shirts as a nod to the female athletes and even arranged childcare for families traveling with small children. Marti Greer once said her hope was every competitor would head home feeling as though they were leaving a friend, not a race.
The course: Kona in Lubbock
IRONMAN 70.3 Buffalo Springs Lake is often referred to as a miniature Kona. Hills, heat and its very own Energy Lab Road makes Lubbock the perfect tune-up course for the IRONMAN World Championship. (Six-time Kona champion Natascha Badmann has used the race as a tune-up for her race on the Big Island.)
The swim takes place in a spring-fed lake just outside of Lubbock. The course follows a rectangular counter-clock wise format. Finishing up just 75 yards from transition, all swimmers are assisted by wetsuit strippers, a luxury usually found only at the full-distance races.
The last few years, the Greers had to re-route the bike course due to some roadwork and storm damage, but the 2014 course returns with all eight climbs intact. The relentless bike ride meanders around the infamous red canyons of Lubbock before dropping back into transition for the run.
The run course begins in the park for the first few miles, gifting the runners with some much needed shade and flat terrain to acclimate their legs. The reprieve is short, however, as the course makes a sharp turn out of the park at mile three. This is where athletes get a taste of what is to come when they begin one of the three climbs in store for them over the next few hours.
Things to do
Athletes and their families can continue to enjoy the West Texas hospitality by visiting the local amusement parks, one of many museums or taking a trip to the National Ranching Heritage.
Buddy Holly Center
Music enthusiasts should not pass up the opportunity to visit the Buddy Holly Center located in the historic Depot Entertainment District. This center is the home to memorabilia donated by family and friends of the late Buddy Holly.
Joyland Amusement Park
The Joyland Amusement Park is a tradition in West Texas. It is an old fashioned amusement park with over 30 great rides and attractions. Get soaked on the log ride or water coaster, or relax with the family on the carousel. The park also has a variety food options and exciting games to enjoy.
National Ranching Heritage
If your inner-cowboy or girl is calling, take a trip to the National Ranching Heritage where you can experience the story and history of ranching through the preservation of 48 authentic structures displayed on a 16-acre site.
Other fun activities:
West Texas has so many other fabulous activities to enjoy to round out your racing weekend. For more information, click here.

If the Iranian government makes good on its recent threats to stop oil shipments through the Strait of Hormuz, oil prices would shoot up $20 to $30 a barrel within hours and the price of gasoline in the United States would rise by $1 a gallon.
Such a steep spike in crude oil prices would plunge the United States and Europe back into recession, said Money Morning Global Energy Strategist Dr. Kent Moors.
Iran just concluded a 10-day military exercise intended to prove to the West that it can choke off the flow of Persian Gulf oil whenever it wants.
The world's fourth-biggest oil producer is unhappy with fresh U.S. financial sanctions that will make it harder to sell its oil, which accounts for half of the government's revenue.
"Tehran is making a renewed political point here. The message is – we can close this anytime we want to," said Moors, who has studied Iran for more than a decade. "The oil markets are essentially ignoring the likelihood at the moment, but any increase in tensions will increase risk assessment and thereby pricing."
One reason the markets haven't reacted much to Iran's latest rhetoric is that although it has threatened to close the Strait of Hormuz many times over the past 20 years, it has never followed through on the threat.
But a fresh wave of Western sanctions could hurt Iran's economy enough to make Tehran much less cautious.
The latest sanctions, signed into law by U.S. President Barack Obama on Saturday, will make it far more difficult for refiners to buy crude oil from Iran. And looming on the horizon is further action by the European Union (EU), which next month will consider an embargo of Iranian oil.
"The present United Nations, U.S. and EU sanctions have already had a significant toll," said Moors. "They have effectively prevented Iranian access to main international banking networks. Iran now has to use inefficient exchange mechanisms."
Because international oil trade is conducted in U.S. dollars, Moors said, Iran must have a convenient way to convert U.S. dollars into its home currency or other currencies it needs, such as euros.
Pushed to the Brink
The impact of the sanctions combined with internal political instability has driven Iran to turn up the volume on its rhetoric.
"Tehran has limited options remaining," Moors said, noting Iran has historically used verbal attacks on the West to distract its population from the country's problems. "The Iranian economy is seriously weakening, the political division among the ayatollahs is increasing, and unrest is rising."
Analysts worry an Iranian government that feels cornered would be more prone to dangerous risk-taking in its dealings with the West. So while totally shutting down the Strait of Hormuz isn't likely, Iran could still escalate a confrontation beyond mere talk.
For instance, although Iran's naval assets in the Gulf are no match for the U.S. Fifth Fleet based Bahrain, its small subs and mining capabilities could severely disrupt merchant traffic in the Strait, through which 18% of the world's oil travels.
And if Iran can do enough to convince the world that it's serious, it could scare the markets enough to cause crude oil prices to jump and insurance premiums to rise. That would punish the West without harming Iran's economy.
"Even if Iran does not actually close the Strait, a continuing naval presence in its own territorial waters would put pressure on the traffic," Moors said.
[Note: Along with serving as Money Morning's Global Energy Strategist, Moors also advises governments and companies worldwide. He shares his expertise and ideas for how to profit in the energy sector in such publications as Oil and Energy Investor, Energy Advantage, The Energy Inner Circleand the new market-breaking Energy Sigma Trader.]
In a worst-case scenario, a desperate Iranian government would try to achieve its aims by arming proxies such as al-Qaeda or Hezbollah to launch attacks on shipping going through the Strait.
That sort of major threat could push oil toward $200 a barrel, which would translate to U.S. gasoline prices of $6.50 a gallon.
Iran's Dilemma
Fortunately for the West, Moors said Iran has other factors restraining it from choking off the flow of oil out of the Persian Gulf aside from the presence of the U.S. Fifth Fleet.
For one thing, Iran needs Western technology to help boost its fields with declining production; Chinese and Russian alternatives aren't as effective.
Another problem is very poor domestic refining capabilities, which means Iran must import gasoline and low-sulfur heating oil.
"The overall demand cannot be met by domestic production," Moors explained. "But even with the portion that can, the products need to be mixed with higher grade imports to avoid serious problems – including explosions."
And finally, any actions Iran takes in the Strait of Hormuz to restrict shipping would hurt its own ability to import much-needed food and consumer goods.
"Iran is as reliant, if not more reliant, on the Strait of Hormuz than any other country," Ali Nader of the RAND Corp. research institute told Bloomberg News.
Nevetheless, the situation remains volatile, and the threat to global oil markets is real.
"This increase in Iranian [military] capability is almost certainly not designed to take the form of a major war with the U.S. and southern Gulf states," wrote Anthony H. Cordesman in a Center for Strategic & International Studies report last month. "It does, however, give Iran the ability to carry out a wide range of much lower level attacks which could sharply raise the risk to Gulf shipping, and either reduce tanker traffic and shipping or sharply raise the insurance cost of such ship movements and put a different kind of pressure on the other Gulf states and world oil prices."

You are again conflating the name for the thing with the thing itself.
lauguage and mental constructs are symbolic... either only loosely represents physical reality. any number of variable (at least two defined by einstein) might vary how we perceive and define physical reality.
are you suggesting that man thinking is not symbolic?
then mr smith continues with:
So asserting the existence of a reality that is independent of what people think of it is something you want to derisively characterize as "quaint" and "highly misleading"? Are you serious? If that's the case, then I'll plead guilty. Yes, I DO believe reality exists apart from our ideas about it. Pretty wacky, huh?
why yes it is... such thinking would have been quite mainstream 100 years ago but will get you no gold stars given what we know today. betrand russell (a history of western philisophy) attacts the question quite directly and pretty much lines out who is currently 'winning' in regards to this basic question (which has been around at least as long as the ancient greeks).
then mr smith writes:
You object to the term political correctness? LOL. I can think of a lot of other terms for those people who attempt to shut down debate on these questions by means of personal attacks, but none of them are so polite. This reminds me of the line in the Woody Allen movie "Annie Hall":
proving a point by presenting some line from a movie (fictional I would guess???) does not give much weight to your argument. given the movie is likely (haven't seen it, so I am guessing here) a comody and fiction (by definition somewhat to highly removed from reality) suggest you are guilty of exactly the kind of thinking (actually the lack thereof) of what you are accusing others.
Actually though, political is exactly the right word, since it's apparent that those reality-deniers who claim that races are socially constructed do so for political, not scientific, reasons. They are frightened by the implications of the idea that human races exist, differing in outward form, temperament, aptitudes, and abilities, much like European and African bees do.
perhaps you might first want to establish some definition for the term politcally correct with which we could all agree??? if not??? then you are only intermixing the thinking of science with current strategies of political spin to obtain some political advantage.
once again your constant 'attempt' to falling back on the vague term of political correctness speaks volumes about your thinking (well actually the lack thereof).
then mr smith adds:
The evolutionary origin of the European bee is not germane. The point is that the two races of bees are different NOW. Further, they would continue to be different NOW, regardless of the perceptions or even the existence of man.
I gave you a simple 'real world' example which you have decided to reject. quite obviously if man didn't exist we wouldn't be having this conversation and the 'differences' (if they exist) would not matter one whit.
it is quite evident (at least to me) that you are highly confuse into believing that mental model (constructs) are reality or politcal spin (which is my own personal view of what 'politically correct' actually represents) might in someway alter these constructs. that is.... by altering the rhetoric you might in someway alter how folks think (which is by itself quite a viable idea).
then mr smith writes:
"Reality is that which remains after you stop believing in it."
another meaningless and unidentified quote. your argument grows constantly weaker.

Manchester City manager Roberto Mancini has been sacked.
As reported by Goal.com on Sunday, the club`s defeat to Wigan in the FA Cup final proved the last straw for the City owners, who said in a statement that the Italian had failed to achieve any of the team`s targets for the season.
The decision comes exactly one year to the day since Sergio Aguero`s dramatic late goal saw Mancini`s side clinch their first league title for 44 years, with Malaga coach Manuel Pellegrini expected to be unveiled as his replacement at the Etihad Stadium.
"It is with regret that Manchester City announce that Roberto Mancini has been relieved of his duties as manager," read a statement on the club`s official website.
"This has been a difficult decision for the owner, chairman and board to make and it is the outcome of a planned end of season review process that has been brought forward in light of recent speculation and out of respect for Roberto and his extensive contributions to the club.
"Despite everyone`s best efforts, the club has failed to achieve any of its stated targets this year, with the exception of qualification for next season`s Champions League. This, combined with an identified need to develop a holistic approach to all aspects of football at the club, has meant that the decision has been taken to find a new manager for the 2013-14 season and beyond."
Club chairman Khaldoon Al Mubarak declared: "Roberto`s record speaks for itself and he has the respect and gratitude of Sheikh Mansour, myself and the board for all of his hard work and commitment over the last three-and-a-half years. He has clearly also secured the love and respect of our fans.
"He has done as he promised and delivered silverware and success, breaking the club`s 35-year trophy drought and securing the title in 2012. I would like to personally and publicly thank him for his dedication to the progress that he has overseen and for his support and continued friendship."
Mancini`s assistant, Brian Kidd, is to take temporary charge of the team for their final two matches of the Premier League campaign and their post-season friendlies in USA.
As exclusively revealed by Goal.com, the Italian has been approached by ambitious French side Monaco with regards to taking over from Claudio Ranieri following their promotion to Ligue 1.

The launrdromat's ultra high-efficiency Electrolux equipment - washer capacities up to 75 lbs., and dryers up to 83, that can wash and dry as much as 8 loads at once - drastically cut down your overall laundry time, even when you bring in a veritable ton.

Electrolux 450 G-force washers and dryers with EcoPower technology are the most energy-efficient machines in the world. Reduce wear and tear, even on your most delicate laundry. Every machine is equipped with a delicate cycle that can wash just about everything, from wool blankets to down comforters and pillows.

Doing laundry at Spin is cheaper per pound than any other Portland-area laundromat. Wash cycles may cost a little more than old school top-loading washers, but the high extraction speed of Spin's machines makes up for it. Clothing comes out squeaky-clean* and contains less water.

Our hypoallergenic machines consist of two washers and two dryers, and are available at our Fremont location only.
Credit + Debit – There's a card reader attached to every Spin washer and dryer.
Smartphone - Use Apple Pay on your iPhone, or download Google Wallet on your Android Phone.

Grab a bite in the Fremont cafe while you wait, or run to the grocery store - Spin machines send a text when your laundry's got just ten minutes left, and then again when it's done. Planning ahead? Text "status" to Spin's number (818.877.9100 at Fremont / 503.863.1901 at Broadway) to check if there's a washer available before you ever leave the house.

Change of Heart Over Detroit
Opponents Slam Governor's Turnabout on Bankruptcy; He Saw No Other Option
DETROIT—In 2011, Michigan Gov. Rick Snyder said bankruptcy wasn't an option for the city of Detroit. Two years later, he changed his mind, deciding that it was the Motor City's only remaining move.
How Michigan voters view Mr. Snyder's decision last week to sign off on the nation's largest municipal bankruptcy filing—a courageous stand or a disappointing flip-flop—could help decide the Republican's political future. It comes on the heels of the governor's controversial signing in December of right-to-work legislation, a move...

Please put on Google Chrome Flash Player, on Chorme Beta!!!
why do I always have a problem with the Huffington Post website when I use Chrome ? whatever the issue is between Chrome & the HuffingtonPost website or AOL you need to fix it . Chrome is getting on my last nerve with this
Plz update number on omahaproxy
Add an option to change User-Agent permanently (for all pages). Until You do, Chrome Mobile is not worth installing.
Why do all the context menus (right-click menu) menus take up so much vertical space now? They seem like they're more than twice the height they used to be last week. I only have 768 rows of pixels to work with on my laptop, so I value my space. Please go back to the same style of context menus that the rest of the OS uses.
I agree with Paul Reisinger. Is there a custom look to context menues? They look non-standard and take-up a ton of screen real estate.
The typing is still horrible.. I've sent like four tickets.. Hopefully someone will see this. I have the Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G, This only seems to be a problem on mobile websites .. For example, when I try to type "The Cat Is Black". It comes out "TheCatIsBlack" (On m.facebook.com) "The Cat s Black l" (On m.amazon.com) .. You get the point .. I've sent several tickets .. I've put up with this for months .. I'd hate to have to use the stock browser, just because no one is listening to the ticket ..

I can see that the article and video tells the truth about human psychology and truth/belief/denial etc. Let's not forget that we are ALL humans, atheists too, (oh no). So we're all possessed of the same tendencies to keep hold of our our beliefs and to try to defend what we have decided is right, rather than keep on analysing.
I hope that I and my fellow atheists are really sceptical as much as possible, and will analyse the bejeezers out of ideas, and only settle on best explanations, after that, with a tentative willingness to change in the light of new, (better), arguments or evidence.
...possessed of the same tendencies to keep hold of our our beliefs, .... True.
Unhappily, many of us, especially elders such as I and with whom I live, hold so tightly to comforting beliefs that I can see why our offspring don't want cluttering their lives.
Happily, I'm not the only skeptic/atheist in this retirement community.

Bnishi necesitaba un nuevo diseño de logotipo y lanzó un concurso de diseño en 99designs.
Un ganador ha sido elegido entre 30 diseños de 11 diseñadores freelance.
The Country Club Castle Pines: http://www.ccatcastlepines.com
We are a golfing country club located in the mountains of Colorado. 2011 will be the 25th anniversary of the club. The club is a high-end private club with an average age between 55-60 years of age. The design should be somewhat conservative to match the decor of the club.
We are targeting an existing audience (the membership of the club) and would like to promote the 25th anniversary of the club on much of our merchandise, and during our club tournaments.
We need the club logo (attached) incorporated into a new 25th anniversary design. The text attached to the logo can be seperated from the tree, but please keep the font the same so that it is consistent with our other branding. The new design should primarily consist of colors consistent with the website; earthtones: shades of forest greens, golds, possibly some burgundy for pop!, etc. http://www.ccatcastlepines.com
The new logo design will be used on everything from embroidery on a golf shirt, printed on a golf ball, used on decals for the golf carts, on letterhead and golf course signage. Please keep in mind that it may be used on some smaller items so it shouldn't be too intricate. Or if possible, create two versions of the design; one that has minimal shading and will work well for embroidery and golf balls, and another with shading or texture that will look richer when printed on letterhead or decals.
The years of the club are 1986 - 2011. Please also try to incorporate this into the design.
...please see attached file "25th Example," as a starting point of what we are looking for as far as layout and shape.
