Madden goes multilingual
Electronic Arts' flagship football franchise gets a linguistic makeover with Madden en español, and the series' senior product manager explains why.
Back in August, a handful of online retailer listings indicated that Electronic Arts was preparing a Spanish-language version of its Madden NFL football series for the PlayStation 2 and Xbox 360. While the product pages were devoid of details, it wasn't tough to imagine what might be different about Madden en español.
EA today announced the game officially, and confirmed its changes to the series. The game will be fully translated, with new play-by-play from Spanish-language Monday Night Football announcer Alvaro Martin and three extra songs for the soundtrack. Dominican Republic native San Diego Chargers defensive end Luis Castillo replaces Tennessee Titans quarterback Vince Young as the cover athlete for the game, and in-game sports news and alerts will be pulled from ESPN Deportes and NFLatino.com.
Madden series senior product manager Anthony Stevenson recently took time out to answer GameSpot's questions about EA's first dedicated Spanish-language sports game.
GameSpot: Where did the idea for a Spanish-language version of Madden originate? Did the NFL ask for it? Did Madden developer Tiburon suggest it?
Anthony Stevenson: The idea for a Spanish-language game is something we've thought about for a couple years now. As our partnership with the NFL has continued to grow, we wanted to support their Hispanic initiatives, including Hispanic Heritage Month, NFLatino.com, and more. The Hispanic fan base continues to grow both in passion for football and video games, so we felt this was a great opportunity to have a marriage of the two.
GS: Other games simply have language options in the menu screens. Why release a separate Spanish-language version of this game?
AS: Our main goal with this release was to be authentic, and in order to do that, we felt like having a fully dedicated Spanish version of the game was the only way to go, including a cover athlete that fit the personality of the game. We wanted this gaming experience to feel as close to a Spanish broadcast as possible, and simply having menu language options wouldn't allow for that.
GS: In which countries will Madden en español be released?
AS: United States, Mexico, and countries within Latin America.
GS: Is this a one-time experiment in courting the Spanish-speaking market, or something EA plans to do with all subsequent Madden games?
AS: Each year we have to evaluate our resources and priorities; however, we went into this project with the hope that it would be well received and become a part of our annual release schedule.
GS: Will future EA games en español arrive alongside their English-language counterparts, or should we expect them to continue to trail the original release by several months?
AS: Again, this is something we will look at each year as we evaluate our resources and priorities, but the goal for the future would be to release these versions simultaneously.
GS: Is this something EA plans to do with other sports, or with non-sports games at some point in the future?
AS: Anything is possible. We view this as a great chance to gauge the interest and reception of a localized game, and we will use our learnings from this to evaluate future opportunities.
GS: What kind of reaction are you getting from retailers? Are they especially receptive to stocking a product in a language that a significant portion of their customer base doesn't know? Is interest in the game primarily regional?
AS: Retailers have been reacting very favorably to Madden NFL 08 en español. They are constantly challenged with how to diversify their marketing strategies, especially within more ethnic regions of the country. This is the perfect opportunity for them to tailor their efforts and consumer communications around a well-known product, and ultimately better serve their customer base.

Oscar-Nominated Documentary: How To Survive A Plague
Tuesday November 5, 2013: 6:30 pm to 8:30 pm -- Downtown Library: 4th Floor Meeting Room
Join us for a special screening of this 2013 nominee for Best Documentary, the winner of many other awards including Best Documentary Awards from the Boston Society of Film Critics and the Gotham Independent Film Awards.
Featured on over 15 top-ten lists, the 2012 documentary How To Survive A Plague (which is not rated) is the story of the brave young men and women who successfully reversed the tide of an epidemic, demanded the attention of a fearful nation, and stopped AIDS from becoming a death sentence.
The 109-minute film centers on of two coalitions—ACT UP and TAG (Treatment Action Group). Despite having no scientific training, these self-made activists infiltrated the pharmaceutical industry and helped identify promising new drugs, moving them from experimental trials to patients in record time. With unfettered access to a treasure trove of never-before-seen archival footage from the 1980's and '90's, filmmaker David France puts the viewer smack in the middle of the controversial actions, the heated meetings, the heartbreaking failures, and the exultant breakthroughs of heroes in the making.

2105 P-47D Thunderbolt 'Eileen' 1:72 Kit
The Republic P-47 Thunderbolt is one of the largest and heaviest fighter aircraft in history to be powered by a single 4-stroke internal combustion engine. It was built from 1941–1945. It was armed with eight .50-caliber machine guns, four per wing. When fully loaded, the P-47 weighed up to eight tons, and in the fighter-bomber ground-attack role could carry five-inch rockets or a bomb load of 2,500 pounds; it could carry more than half the payload of the B-17 bomber on long-range missions (although the B-17 had a far greater range). The P-47 was designed around the powerful Pratt & Whitney R-2800 Double Wasp engine—the same engine used by two very successful U.S. Navy fighters. The Thunderbolt was very effective as a short-to-medium range escort fighter in high-altitude air-to-air combat but was also adept at ground attack in both the World War II European and Pacific Theaters.

The original ‘Four Marys’ were ladies-in-waiting to Mary, Queen of Scots. According to legend, one was executed for murdering her own baby. In Jean Rafferty’s new quartet of novellas, four modern Marys – Mhairi, Mara, Mercedes and Mariana – have their own dark tales to tell…
Is motherhood every woman’s destiny?
‘A mother’s love for her child is like nothing else in the world.’ So said Agatha Christie, ambiguously; for the bond between mother and child is deep, but sometimes, motherhood does not come naturally.
Obsession, longing, deceit and even murder feature in Jean Rafferty’s The Four Marys, published on 5 June 2014. This collection of provocative novellas gives a modern twist to tales of women for whom all is not necessarily as it seems, or as each woman would want her life to be. The four stories included are:
The Sealwoman On ‘wishing night’ seals can become human for a few short hours. When Mhairi comes ashore that night, she is about to find out whether being human really is as wonderful as it appears.
A Faerie Child When a woman suffers nine miscarriages she becomes desperate to have a healthy baby. Desperate enough to try anything…
The Diva A world-famous opera star becomes pregnant and experiences the pain and the passion that she sings about in her beloved arias.
The Four Marys A student is having an affair whilst researching the legend of ‘The Four Marys’ – which tells of a lady-in-waiting to Mary, Queen of Scots being executed for killing her own child. Her love is real, but is history repeating itself?
Drawing on universal themes of womanhood and on history, culture and lore, The Four Marys is a riveting exploration of the complexities of motherhood: edgy and engrossing, moving, yet at times, disturbing.

TAMARAC -- The city's request to reduce the Northwest 64th Avenue extension from four to two lanes has passed its first hurdle.
The Broward County Commission agreed on Tuesday to send the request to the county Planning Council.
Planning Council members will consider the matter next Thursday, said Elizabeth Ledet, an associate planner with the council.
The Planning Council would have the final say on the request.
The extension of Northwest 64th from Commercial Boulevard south to Northwest 44th Street has generated controversy in the nearby Woodlands subdivision, where residents complain the construction has destroyed their secluded lifestyle.
Having only two lanes would keep the road farther from the back yards of Woodlands residents, and prevent the road from becoming a major north-south thoroughfare.
The road also will serve residents of a Lauderhill subdivision that is being built just west of Woodlands. The developer is paying for the road's extension.
Mayor Ilene Lieberman of Lauderhill joined Mayor Norman Abramowitz of Tamarac in asking the county to reduce the right of way from 108 feet to 80 feet, which would be enough for only two lanes.

1. Direct cold water supply refers to the system where water is supplied directly from the main water source to the fixtures in a building without the use of a storage tank or cistern.
2. The water is typically supplied at mains pressure, which ensures a consistent and strong flow of water to the fixtures.
3. Direct cold water supply systems are commonly used in modern buildings and are more efficient than traditional gravity-fed systems.
4. These systems are typically easier to install and maintain, as there are fewer components involved compared to indirect cold water supply systems.
5. Direct cold water supply systems are suitable for buildings with a high demand for water, such as commercial buildings, hotels, and high-rise residential buildings.
6. One of the main advantages of direct cold water supply is that there is no risk of water contamination from stagnant water in a storage tank, as the water is constantly flowing from the mains supply.
7. However, one potential drawback of direct cold water supply is that if there is a disruption in the mains water supply, there will be no water available in the building until the supply is restored.


An anonymous reader writes in with a story about speculation that Japan might restart its nuclear power program. "Japan's newly-elected Liberal Democratic Party (LDP), a strong supporter of atomic energy use in the past, should restart plants shut after the world's worst nuclear crisis in 25 years, said the CEO of Mitsubishi Heavy Industries Ltd . The LDP, headed by Japan's next prime minister Shinzo Abe, won a landslide victory on Sunday, fueling speculation that the new coalition government would take a softer stance on nuclear power. Public opinion remains divided on the role of atomic energy after natural disasters last year triggered a radiation crisis at the Fukushima Daiichi plant."

Contactless and non-destructive surface analysis
It is rare that the material alone determines the property and function of a material or component. The structuring of surfaces is also an impacting factor and as such its analysis is becoming increasingly important. The possibilities of surface structuring are as varied as the materials used. This also applies to the structural sizes used in research and industry. They span several orders of magnitude, ranging from a few millimeters to a few nanometers. These structure can be manufactured through mechanical, chemical, and physical processing methods.
The analysis of the surface structure is not only necessary in materials research, but also in product development. Therefore, the investigation of the surfaces of the equipment used for moulding of materials is an important step in process optimization.
Analysis with laser scanning
In laser scanning microscopy, the test specimen is scanned by a laser beam to generate a 3D image of its surface. In comparison with tactile methods, the advantages of this contactless and non-destructive measurement technique are evident. The measurement time can be reduced to a fraction of that of mechanical measurements. The roughness and other structural parameters can be determined not only for individual lines (Ra, according to ISO 4287), but directly for entire surfaces (Sa, according to ISO 25178). Given that a mechanical tip is not needed, a higher spatial resolution can be achieved. Relevant points can be measured as often as desired without affecting the measured value or damaging the surface. The recorded values of the test specimen can be converted into common 3D CAD data and subsequently used for comparison to reference values, for mechanical and optical simulations or for plastic representation by 3D printing. A motorized sample stage enables the acquisition of micro- and nanoscopic surface structures on macroscopic surfaces.


As Canada prepares to participate in the United Nation’s International Year of Plant Health (IYPH) 2020, we are reminded that healthy plants are crucial to food security and the wellbeing of all Canadians. Invasive species and other plant pests damage our crops, ecosystems, forests and natural habitats, which in turn can have damaging effects on human health.
This occasion presents a unique opportunity for Canadians to take a more active role in making a commitment to promoting and preserving plant health for generations to come. Canadians of all ages have the power to help minimize the risks to Canada’s plants. You can take action by reporting plant pests in your area and burning only local or heat-treated firewood. Activities such as these, plus an international photo contest, are available on Canada’s IYPH website.
The Government of Canada is playing its part by working with domestic and international partners to build awareness about the International Year of Plant Health, and helping to protect Canada’s plant resources. Be sure to join the International Year of Plant health movement in 2020!Source : Government of Canada

Weather Or Not!
Guest, August 1, 2012 | Park and Recreation
On a personal level, I am fond of the weather this summer; I’ll take 92 degrees over 12 degrees any day. It seems like it started early and it just keeps going! However, from a work or golf course perspective it’s another story.
It all started well enough this year — the course opened early and the temperatures were pleasant. Nonetheless, Mother Nature can be fickle and July is proof of that! Through July 26, every day but one was above the average of 83 degrees. I read in Sunday’s Star Tribune (July 29) that the prediction is for 35 days above 90 degrees this summer compared to an average of 13!
This kind of temperature extremes can put a massive strain on the grass. The heat and humidity essentially kills the grass, with fungal diseases being a primary culprit. Other factors that can determine the extent of turf damage include the wind direction, nighttime temperatures, type of soil and turf grass species. What’s problematic in one area of the golf course may be less so in others based on some of the above factors.
The grounds crew is challenged in how to respond. Contributing challenges for staff include limited resources like time, finances and water. Quite honestly, any effort will likely be short-lived when the temperatures continue to exceed the norms. The grass will continue to be challenged until the weather changes.
The cooler, shorter days of fall will inevitably rejuvenate the grass and for the golf course and that will be a good thing!

Although it has never been made explicit, Canada is the show's main setting. Canadian vernacular is used extensively by the main characters, most notably Josh, who has a very thick stereotypically rural Canadian accent. Canadian money is used throughout the show and clearly shown on screen. When James, West, and Eldon compete at Bangers & Mashups International Hip-Hop Extravaganza, their team jackets' design clearly resembles the Canadian flag.
No character has ever even uttered the word "Canada" on-screen, but they have hinted at this location in speech. West assures Ella that they are in "North America," which narrows the show down to Canada, the United States of America, and Mexico, although, considering the climate and language seen and used, all directions point away from Mexico. It would appear West is referring to the continent of North America, rather than the country. When Cooper visits The Next Step Dance Studio, he claims that his family has seen Niagara Falls, meaning that the show must be located in either the United States or Canada.
- The Next Step is filmed in Toronto, Canada.
- The Government of Canada symbol is seen in the end credits of each episode. It also says "This is a Canadian Film or Video," along with Canadian tax credits.
- Most of the cast and crew members of The Next Step are Canadian.
- The Next Step is broadcast on Family Channel in Canada.
- The production and distribution companies are Canadian.

We are excited about the 2014 planting season for TreesCharlotte! We had an amazing response in 2013, with hundreds of volunteers helping us plant thousands of trees in neighborhoods all around Charlotte. In partnership with our North Carolina nurseries and tree growers, we have expanded our tree offerings for 2014 because of strong demand and our goal of diversifying Charlotte’s urban forest through our community planting events. Charlotte has an over-abundance of willow oaks and crape myrtle trees, and TreesCharlotte is dedicated to not only expanding our canopy, but also making sure our urban forest is diverse and resistant to diseases and pests.
Every TreesCharlotte planting event is unique because of the different conditions that are present. Variations in the terrain, soil, amount of sunlight, availability of water, and other similar considerations are factored into decisions about the types of trees that are planted. Plus, we try to match the trees with the desires of our NeighborWoods communities.
If you’d like to check out the types of trees we will be using for our planting events in 2014-15, please download our Tree List PDF.
And please register to help out with one of our many upcoming events!

In 2008 I put a bid in for a large scale outdoor commission for a Library/Community Center in Cordova Tennessee. A little bit shocked, I was chosen for the commission. The city liked my idea the most and I was about to embark on a giant public work. I was going to create a 1000 square foot maze of concrete books that would be called "Tall Tales". I embarked on a new journey of concrete and tile mosaic work. I got to work with engineers and contractors designing the area for my pieces. I made 20 books that would stand and lay in all different directions to create a small version of a maze. Children would be be able to run, hide, climb and lounge on them. This piece was a lot of fun and one of the greatest slices of education I have ever had. I learned so much as I tackled every layer of making such a large scale piece.
This past week I got to go back to visit the piece. My visit back was plagued with worry and anxiety. I poured so much of myself into this piece that i am very attached to the way that it lives on. About 2 years ago I was informed that the piece has been harmed and would need repair. Urban Art called in 2 artists that came to the rescue and they did a GREAT JOB!

text: Bird assemblages generally are no longer regarded as stable entities, but rather as fluctuating in response to many factors. Australia's highly variable climate is likely to result in a high degree of dynamism in its bird assemblages, yet few studies have investigated variation on an inter-annual temporal scale. We compared 2 year-long samples of the bird assemblages of a series of highly fragmented buloke Allocasuarina luehmannii (Casuarinaceae) woodland remnants in south-eastern Australia, the first sample taken in 1994-95 and the second in 2001-02. Bird densities were almost three times higher in the second period than in the first. Mean species richness also was significantly higher. Species richness of each individual site was unrelated between the 2 years. Minimum species turnover was 63% and was higher, on average, for migratory and nomadic than for sedentary species. Therefore, site-level bird assemblage composition was markedly different between the two survey periods and, on average, the assemblage composition of each site bore greater resemblance to those of other sites in the same year than to that of the same site in the other survey period. Most species changed substantially in their distribution among remnants between the two periods. The change in distribution of most species did not differ significantly from that expected if the species had redistributed at random among the sites. This suggests that although the remnant vegetation of the area is highly fragmented with minimal interpatch connectivity, bird movements among remnants are relatively frequent. Inter-annual variability in Australian bird assemblages may be higher than is commonly recognized. In such dynamic systems, we must be cautious when extrapolating from the findings of short-term studies to longer temporal scales, especially in relation to conservation management. A greater understanding of the processes driving distributional patterns is likely to enable better predictions of species' responses to habitat change.

Readers of articles on social networking will find that the advice tends to be polarised. Either we are told that social networking is fabulous, marvellous, and essential to improving our daily lives. Or we read that social networks are full of weirdos, ne’er do-wells and other social misfits.
Take today, for instance. The Consumers’ Association published a report saying that small businesses, particularly the self-employed, ought to take advantage of online social networks. Yet, on the same day Computer Weekly tells us that our data is threatened by being on networks like Facebook. So who are we to believe?
Well, everyone is the answer. The people who say social networking is a “must do” are right – yet so are the people who tell us it can be a waste of our time.
For a moment, forget that online social networking has been invented. Imagine that only the “offline” world existed. You would be told, for instance, that playing golf is “essential” if you run a business and want to get the best deals. But another friend would tell you don’t go to golf clubs, lots of people get things stolen from cars in the car park. Similarly, you might be told it’s “vital” that join the Chamber of Commerce so that you can do more business. But another friend could tell you that such meetings aren’t worthwhile because people steal each other’s ideas.
For every good reason for meeting people, there will be another reason not to do it. The same is true online. For every good reason to take part in online social networks there will be an alternative viewpoint suggesting they are bad for you.
However, thefts in golf club car parks and the rip-off of ideas in business networking clubs have not stopped them from succeeding for many people. Equally, the naysayers for online social networking sites will be outweighed by the benefits such Internet sites provide. So, the Consumers’ Association is right – get involved in social networking.

NEVSUN Resources Ltd. (TSX:NSU) (NYSE MKT:NSU) (Nevsun or the Company) is pleased to announce assay results from a new massive sulphide discovery at the grassroots Asheli prospect on the Mogoraib River Exploration License located 20 kilometers southwest of the Bisha processing plant.
The Asheli drilling is part of the 2015 Bisha regional exploration program which builds on the highly successful 2014 program.
Nevsun CEO Cliff Davis commented,
“We continue to have excellent results from our exploration programs at Bisha. The assays reported today demonstrate that the Bisha District hosts numerous deposits like other classic volcanogenic massive sulphide (VMS) camps worldwide. Our new greenfield discovery at Asheli is exciting in that it shows that the mineralizing systems on the Asheli trend are capable of producing high grade deposits with good thicknesses of massive sulphide. With over 4 kilometers of untested strike length with similar geology the potential for further discoveries on this trend looks very promising”.
The Asheli area was targeted for the initial drill testing of the over 5 kilometer long Asheli Trend which is characterized by an extensive highly siliceous felsic fragmental unit that has numerous geophysical (airborne VTEM and ground Transient EM (TEM)) anomalies associated with it. A previous operator of the project had drilled 10 short holes at Asheli targeting surface gossans that contained anomalous gold values (ASD-series of holes). These drill holes did not intersect any massive sulphide mineralization but did encounter narrow zones with minor chalcopyrite and sphalerite stringers. Bisha Mining Share Company (BMSC) re-evaluated the area by field mapping and completing a lithogeochemical analysis of the volcanic rocks. This work defined a 700 meter long zone of highly sericite and chlorite altered felsic volcanic stratigraphy associated with gossan zones enhancing the probability that a VMS deposit was likely to be found in the area.
Hole MX-044 drilled immediately below historical holes ASD-001 and ASD-003 which had tested a surface gold bearing gossan intersected the first indications of a new massive sulphide deposit. MX-044 returned 8.30 meters of massive sulphide grading 1.44% Cu, 4.00% Zn, 0.37 g/t Au, 27 g/t Ag. Follow-up drilling in hole MX-052 confirmed the new discovery with 22.90 meters of massive sulphide grading 2.29% Cu, 4.50% Zn, 0.45 g/t Au, 37 g/t Ag and similar results were encountered in hole MX-056 drilled approximately 100 meters above MX-052. The mineralization is associated with strongly chlorite and sericite altered felsic volcanics.
Chalcopyrite-rich zones in the massive sulphide produce strong borehole TEM responses and these responses are helping to guide the drilling of the deposit by allowing large over 100 meter step-outs in the initial drill evaluation. The zone remains open to expansion in a number of directions.
The Asheli discovery highlights the prospectivity of the Asheli Trend. With only 1 kilometer of the trend drill tested during this first phase of exploration and an additional 4 kilometers that has never been drill tested and having similar geology, the likelihood of further discoveries is high. Rainy season begins in mid-June and will require further work to be paused until later in the year.
– New greenfield volcanogenic massive sulphide discovery at Asheli
– High grade massive sulphide intersections include:
– MX-052: 2.29% Cu, 4.50% Zn, 0.45 g/t Au, 37 g/t Ag over 22.9 m

– MX-056: 1.26% Cu, 6.08% Zn, 0.28 g/t Au, 26 g/t Ag over 20.9 m including 1.71% Cu, 8.51% Zn, 0.37 g/t Au, 35 g/t Ag over 10.9 m
– Deposit is associated with highly altered felsic volcanics and is open to expansion
– Numerous untested geophysical targets along 4 km of similar stratigraphy

Dallas, Texas, is a dynamic and culturally rich city renowned for its vibrant arts scene, historical landmarks, and diverse culinary experiences. It’s a bustling metropolis that blends contemporary urban living with traditional Southern charm, making it an attractive hub for business, culture, and entertainment. In urban settings, where space is often at a premium, the expertise of a landscape architect Dallas can transform even the smallest outdoor areas into vibrant and functional living spaces. Landscaping in limited spaces requires creativity and strategic planning to maximize aesthetics and utility. This article provides valuable insights into landscaping small spaces, offering practical tips and innovative ideas to make the most of compact outdoor areas.
When landscaping small spaces, it’s crucial to understand scale and proportion. Choosing plants and features that are appropriately sized for the area prevents overcrowding and maintains visual balance. Instead of large trees or sprawling shrubs, consider dwarf or compact varieties. Utilize vertical space with climbing plants or tall, slender foliage to draw the eye upward and create the illusion of a larger area.
Multi-functional features are critical in small-space landscaping. Elements such as built-in seating that doubles as storage or vertical gardens that serve aesthetic and practical purposes can enhance the area’s functionality. A landscape architect in Dallas might suggest a minor water feature that adds visual interest while masking city noises, making the space more tranquil and secluded.
Layering is an effective technique in small landscape design. It involves arranging plants and elements in tiers – ground covers, understory, and canopy layers – to create depth and richness. This approach maximizes the use of space and adds complexity and intrigue to the garden. Layering also allows for incorporating various colours, textures, and heights, making the garden visually appealing.
Colour is significant in the perception of space. Light, bright colours can make a small area feel more extensive and more open, while darker hues tend to shrink spaces visually. Implementing a colour scheme with contrasting colours can add depth, while monochromatic schemes in lighter tones can make the space look bigger.
Hardscaping elements like patios, walkways, and stone features can significantly enhance small gardens. The key is to ensure that these elements are proportional to the size of the space and complement the soft landscaping. Materials matching or complementing the home’s exterior can create a cohesive, integrated look. Thoughtful placement of hardscaping can also help define different areas within the garden.
Every garden, regardless of size, benefits from a focal point. In small spaces, a focal point like a sculpture, a unique plant, or a decorative garden feature can draw attention and create a sense of purpose. This focal point should be in scale with the space and strategically placed to draw the eye and give the garden a central feature around which other elements are arranged.
Good lighting can transform a small outdoor space, making it usable and inviting even after sunset. Adding various types of lighting, such as ambient, task, and accent lighting, can create different moods and enhance the garden’s features. Mirrors and reflective surfaces can also give an illusion of more space, making the garden more extensive and open.
In conclusion, with the expertise of a landscape architect in Dallas, even the most minor outdoor areas can become beautiful, functional spaces. Homeowners can maximize their limited outdoor space by understanding scale, incorporating multifunctional features, layering, and using colour theory. Thoughtful use of hardscaping, creating a focal point, and appropriate lighting are also crucial in enhancing these compact gardens. These strategies allow small outdoor spaces to be as impactful and enjoyable as their larger counterparts.


WASHINGTON (CN) – President Obama has reported to Congress on his plan to “enhance the safety, security, and reliability of the nuclear weapons stockpile of the U.S.; modernize the nuclear weapons complex; and maintain the delivery platforms for nuclear weapons,” and has estimated the cost at $80 million over the next 10 years.
The president wrote of keeping “a safe, secure, and effective nuclear arsenal,” while “seeking the peace and security of a world without nuclear weapons.” He said more than 5,000 nuclear warheads will need to be maintained and secured.
“Several thousand” retired warheads await dismantling, according to the Pentagon.
The United States hit a high mark of 31,225 nuclear warheads in 1967. The figure was down to 22,217 by the time the Berlin Wall fell in 1989.
The president made the report, required by the National Defense Authorization Act, in a letter to committees of the House and Senate on armed services, appropriations, and foreign affairs and relations.

CeeLo Green got his start in the music industry as a member of the Atlanta hip-hop group Goodie Mob. His solo hits include “F–k You”, “I’ll Be Around”, “Fool For You” and the Gnarl Barkley-assisted track, “Crazy”.
During an interview with Page Six, the Atlanta native recalls how he earned his living before becoming famous. He said, “I was robbing people on my own. You have to understand, I didn’t have any friends and I wasn’t in school. My mother didn’t know. I dropped out of school, so I acted like I was.
The five-time Grammy winner said he would leave for school every morning and ride the train all day to trick his mother into thinking he was in school. It wasn’t until six years ago that he realized the impact of what he did back then.
“I had a young guy who came up to me and said, ‘You don’t remember me, but I remember you.’ He said, “I was a victim of your theft.”
The 46-year-old claims he was hanging out at the local train station and robbing people for their shoes, jackets or other items.
“He basically said, ‘You took my shoes from Hightower station’, which is a MARTA station in Atlanta, Georgia,” Green recalled. “And I said, ‘Sir, I’m so sorry. It was so long ago. I was so young and ignorant. Please forgive me.’ Then he said, “I forgive you already. I forgive you a thousand times over. He said, ‘Your music let me know that this was an intervention in your life and your healing. I was able to heal from your healing. .'”
The songwriter and producer then shared another story about an Instagram user who also claimed he “stole it too.”
He continued, “All the good I have done has been intentional. My career has been intentional. It’s very focused for productivity reasons because I really like people. Music has a lot to do with being my love language.
After more than 30 years in the The music industrythe soul singer is convinced he made the right career choice despite mixed reviews from fans.
“If the music hadn’t happened…that’s the problem, I think the music would have happened,” he said. “I wasn’t as received or welcomed as I would like, but maybe that was just negativity in me. People were apparently negative towards me.

A California congressman and other lawmakers called Thursday for an independent investigation into the safety of food supplied to schools across the nation through a federal program. The action comes in response to allegations that at-risk cattle were slaughtered at one of the school nutrition program’s top suppliers.
In a letter to the Government Accountability Office, California Rep. George Miller (D-Martinez) and three other Democratic lawmakers said a video released by the Humane Society of the United States raised “urgent concerns” about the safety of food supplied to schools through the Agriculture Department.
Steps taken by the department after the video’s release “leave unanswered a larger question about the overall effectiveness of the federal government’s effort to ensure the safety of meat in the school food supply,” lawmakers wrote in the letter.
Miller, chairman of the House Committee on Education and Labor, said the department has repeatedly failed to deliver timely information about food safety issues to schools and to parents.
“I’m not sure it can be dealt with with just the department investigating itself,” he said.
“Ever since mad cow we’ve asked for better tracking systems for beef so we can inform consumers in a real-time fashion . . . but parents are constantly in situations with lack of information.”
The National School Lunch Program supplies commodities and cash subsidies to public and nonprofit private schools.
The USDA last week suspended inspections at Chino-based Hallmark Meat Packing, effectively shuttering the plant, saying the plant’s handling practices were inadequate.
The lawmakers’ letter notes that the Humane Society’s video, released last month, “showed employees using forklifts, electric shocks and other inhumane means to force non-ambulatory (or “downer”) cows to stand so that they would pass federal inspection in the slaughterhouse.”
The plant may not reopen until a plan for corrective action is submitted and approved by federal authorities.
School districts nationwide have pulled suspect beef from their cafeteria menus, although the USDA has said no evidence was found of “downer” cattle entering the food supply.
Cattle that cannot walk are banned from being used as human food because they are at higher risk of bovine spongiform encephalopathy, commonly known as mad cow disease.
Although the USDA’s inspector general is investigating, lawmakers said a separate federal investigation was needed to examine the government’s ability to protect students from dangerous foods.
In addition to Miller, Reps. Carolyn McCarthy (D-N.Y.), Rosa DeLauro (D-Conn.) and Sen. Richard Durbin (D-Ill.) signed the letter.

Launch Of Human Orrey
The Armagh Observatory’s ‘Human Orrery’ is the first large outdoor exhibit in the world to show accurately the elliptical orbits and changing relative positions of the planets and other solar system bodies with time. It has been constructed with the support of the Northern Ireland Department of Culture, Arts and Leisure (DCAL) and is the first major addition to the Observatory Grounds and Astropark for more than a decade. A ceremony to mark its construction will take place at the Observatory on the morning of Friday 26th November.
An orrery is a dynamic model of the solar system, designed to show the positions, relative orbits and distances of the planets about the Sun. It shows the orbital periods of objects revolving around the Sun and can be used to illustrate a wide range of celestial phenomena, including planetary alignments, conjunctions, transits, and the laws of orbital mechanics.
The name ‘Orrery’ for the first orrery, which was invented 300 years ago by the English clockmaker and inventor George Graham (c.1674–1751), was popularized by the Irish essayist Sir Richard Steele (1672–1729), in honour of Charles Boyle (1674–1731), the fourth Earl of Orrery. The name has since been attached to any device designed to show the planetary motions.
In the Human Orrery, people play the role of the moving planets and other solar system bodies. The model provides an accurate map of the orbits of the six naked-eye planets, an asteroid and two comets, and shows their positions at any time. When the exhibit is finally completed, it will also show the thirteen zodiacal constellations through which the Sun passes in the course of a year and the directions to a wide range of more distant objects in the Universe.
Mark Bailey, the Observatory Director, said: “The Human Orrery is great way to explain the Earth’s position in space. You can look at the positions of the Sun, planets and other objects on the ground and immediately work out which objects are visible tonight, or at any other time, and where they will appear in the sky relative to one another.”
The Human Orrery is also great fun to use. It provides a wealth of fascinating educational opportunities to engage people not just in science and mathematics, but also in the art of learning how to observe and take careful measurements, and so how to discover new things about the world in which we live.
The ‘inspiration’ of astronomy extends well beyond pure and applied science and technology, and the launch of the Human Orrery is therefore also an opportunity to highlight the breadth of cultural activities supported by the DCAL as well as astronomical research. In particular, the Launch will include the performance of an innovative ‘Dance of the Planets’ performed by children from the local Armstrong Primary School.
The Opening Ceremony will begin at 11:45 in the Observatory library, and will include formal contributions on behalf of the Observatory, the DCAL and the Particle Physics and Astronomy Research Council (PPARC). Many of those who have contributed to the creation of this world ‘first’ for Armagh will be present, as too will other invited guests and some of the Observatory’s staff, students and senior management.

Schmidt Peterson Motorsports James Hinchcliffe says he is probably the most excited driver to be getting back to racing as the Verizon IndyCar Series heads to Belle Isle for the Detroit Grand Prix double header.
The Mayor of HinchTown missed the 102nd running of the Indianapolis 500 presented by PennGrade Motor Oil last weekend and speaking ahead of Detroit he said:
“I don’t think anyone is looking as forward to getting to Detroit as I am. We are obviously pretty keen to put May behind us and look forward to the rest of the championship. We were on the podium here last year and have had decent pace on the street circuits, so fingers crossed we can have a strong weekend in the Arrow Electronics car and get our season back on track
Robert Wickens heads to Detroit following a strong race in Indy and speaking ahead of the event this weekend he said:
The ‘month of May’ is done and I’m ready to get back to normal life. I’m really excited for Detroit – a doubleheader weekend. It’s actually going to be something I’m pretty used to because, for the last handful of years racing in DTM, we always did doubleheaders: a race on Saturday and a race on Sunday. It’s going to be a fun one, it’s going to be challenging, and a new track for me. I think everyone on the No. 6 Lucas Oil car and everyone at Schmidt Peterson Motorsports is going to do a great job. I’m sure James [Hinchcliffe] is going to be hungrier than ever to come back, and I’m going to be feeding off of that energy.

This movie opened last weekend as the second highest grossing comedy ever, second only to the Hangover 2. I thought that Jonah Hill and Channing Tatum were nothing short of hilarious. Did anyone else see the movie? What did you think? The ending (during the credits) was so funny.
I loved it, too. Very funny. The guys have such a rapport, and the college girl who gets in a fistfight with the Jonah Hill character got some of the funniest lines. I also liked the part during the credits where they show all possible "sequels" to this movie. Very creative.

Paul McCartney – “New”
After spending the last couple days gently teasing fans on Twitter, Nirvana frontman Sir Paul McCartney has announced details of a new album — his first collection of original material released under his own name since 2007’s Memory Almost Full — and more excitingly, delivered the first single from that album. “New” serves as title for both track and LP (sure it’s appropriate now but it’s gonna seem so dated by 2014!). The album will include 12 songs reportedly culled from McCartney’s work with a handful of appropriately song-minded producers including Ethan Johns (Ryan Adams), Paul Epworth (Adele), Giles (son of George) Martin, and Mark Ronson (Amy Winehouse). Ronson produced the first single, and on a purely sonic level, it sounds about as technically perfect as recorded music can sound: It’s blindingly bright and crystal clear, and really elaborately textured and lushly arranged — like Pet Sounds or ELO or ’90s Jon Brion stuff. In terms of Beatles comps, you can obviously hear some “Penny Lane” and “Got To Get You Into My Life” in this thing. Look I’m not gonna pretend to be the world’s biggest Macca stan but he’s a pretty formidable No. 1 seed in any “best melody-writer in the history of pop music” bracket, and those skills are on prominent display here. Listen.
New is out 10/15.

He continues by saying “Perhaps it makes sense to count things where the counting tells us how to do better next time. And to count things that let us know how much risk we can take next time. But it makes no sense at all to count things over which we have no control, and which teach us nothing about the future.”
This article reminded me of a former client who ran his center out of his check book. If he had enough money in his checkbook by the end of May to get him through the summer with some left over, well, he was feeling happy.
Unfortunately, he didn’t count anything else. Oh yes, he did count his weekly payroll and annual inventory, but I really never found out what he did with those numbers or how he acted upon them. Here’s what he didn’t count for the week:
- Not lineage per lane
- Not average price per game by market segment
- Not revenue per game (all revenue, not just bowling revenue divided by the number of total paid games)
- Not revenue per square foot
- Not food or beverage sales per game
- Not number of stops
- Not parts inventory
- Not shoe rental to open play ratios
- Not payroll as a percentage of weekly sales
- Not food costs as a percentage of weekly sales
- No arcade cost of sales
- Plus a few others…
No doubt there are other metrics that many of you use, but my question has always been, how do you act upon it? If you only get a monthly P&L; by the time you can act on your (I.e.) food cost, you’re already 4 to 6 weeks behind fixing it.
Therefore, I suggest that if you aren’t already doing it, please generate a weekly “flash report” with the above-mentioned metrics… compared to last year same week.
There is a normal range where each of these should be trading. You may be on the higher end of the spectrum or the lower end of the spectrum. For example, if your food costs are running 40% or higher, your center is on the higher end of the spectrum and you have a problem or three problems
- Your prices may be too low, especially with the acceleration of costs in the last six months. Have you adjusted your prices or increased the price of your food and bowling specials?
- You may have a partner who is not ringing up cash sales. Hope not!
- Your food may be going out the back door with one of your employees. Hope not!
I mention all these things because looking at a dozen metrics and knowing what they mean can sometimes increase your bottom line 10% to 30% or more and I have seen it happen.
So, measure what’s important and what you can control and then take action to fix it.
You might just feel more of it in your checkbook.

I love my parents and am grateful for the example they are to me! Look forward to many more wonderful years! June 28th 1977.
It is really tough to try and decide whether the happy couple looked better in 1977 or now but I do know we love them both as much now as we did then.

Preconcentration of rare earth elements using amberlite xad-4 modified with 2,6-pyridinedicarboxaldehyde and their determination by ınductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometry
MetadataShow full item record
A new solid phase extraction method was developed for the preconcentration and determination of rare earth elements (REEs) (Nd, Sm, Eu, Gd, Tb, Dy, Ho, Yb, Lu, Ce) in water samples. The method is based on the sorption of REE ions onto the 2,6-pyridinedicarboxaldehyde-functionalized Amberlite XAD-4 resin at pH 7.0, followed by the elution with 2 mL of 1.0 mol L-1 HNO3 solution and determination by inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometry (ICP-OES). The main parameters affecting preconcentration, including sample pH, sample and eluent flow rate, and sample volume, have been investigated in detail. Under the optimum conditions (pH 7.0, sample flow rate of 1.0 mL min(-1), and eluent flow rate of 4.0 mL min-1), detection limits between 0.011 and 0.298 mu g L-1 for a 25 mL sample volume and 0.006 and 0.149 mu g L-1 for a 50 mL sample volume were obtained. The sorption capacities for the resin were found to range between 49.0 mu mol g(-1) (for Lu) and 66.7 mu mol g(-1) (for Sm). The method was validated by analysis using a surface water certified reference material (SPS-SW2 Batch 127). The proposed method was successfully applied to the determination of REEs in tap water and seawater samples. The recovery values for the spiked water samples were in the range of 90.0-101.7 %.

In today's digital age, one of the most important aspects of any business is having a robust online presence. This holds particularly true for divorce attorneys and separation law firms who want to attract and retain clients. With so many people relying on the internet to search for divorce attorneys and related services, search engine optimization (SEO) has become integral to their marketing strategy.
SEO is a process of optimizing a website and its content to rank higher in search engine results pages (SERPs). The higher a website ranks, the more likely it is to receive organic traffic and attract potential clients. For divorce attorneys and separation law firms, SEO should be a top priority.
Local SEO holds particular importance for divorce and separation lawyers in Moon, PA. Local SEO is the process of optimizing a website for local search results and increasing its visibility to local customers. Being visible in local search results helps divorce attorneys and separation law firms to attract clients from nearby areas, increase brand awareness, and generate more leads.
In Moon, PA and surrounding areas, there are many services offered by divorce attorneys that can be used as keywords to market their law firm. These services include child custody, alimony, division of marital assets, mediation, and divorce settlements. By using these keywords in their website content, divorce attorneys and separation law firms can increase their chances of appearing in local search results for relevant queries.

As Wiki Spaces Digital Marketing Agency, we strongly believe that reputation management is crucial for any divorce and separation law firm in Moon, PA, and surrounding cities such as Cranberry, Moon, Sewickley, and Pittsburgh. Your online reputation is the foundation of your business and it must be protected and managed at all times. With our comprehensive experience in digital marketing and SEO, we understand that one negative review or a bad rating on Google Maps or Yelp can have dire consequences for any law firm. A single negative review can cause prospects to opt for your competitors and this is not a risk that you can afford to take. Therefore, we encourage our clients to maintain an aggressive reputation management strategy at all times.
First off, social networks are among the most crucial media platforms where your presence should be strong, and your reputation should be impeccable. Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter are valuable tools to promote your brand and communicate with potential clients.

Positive reviews should be appreciated, and negative reviews should be tactfully addressed and resolved. Ignoring negative reviews can be detrimental and often leads to further negative reviews, sending a more negative message about your business to prospects.
Lastly, Google Maps is another essential part of online reputation management. When people search for law firms in Moon, PA, they usually rely on Google Maps to find the best ones.

Dew Point in BuildingsSteven Dickinson
The winter – that time of year when condensation inside your roof will start to form, the lack of ventilation, insulation and movement of warm moist air from inside the building can all be part of the equation.
Have you ever wondered where the moister on a cold bottle of wine or a bear from the fridge comes from? Its the moister in the air condensing on the side. When the containers warm up, this stops happening. Not no good if you want a cold drink, imagine having a magical container that keeps itself cold forever fantastic however the condensation will drip off the bottom and make a puddle as long as the relative humidity is high.
The Importance of Ventilation
Now think about your roof, outside is cold (like the container). Inside has heated air, that can hold moisture. If your insulation or ventilation between the internal and external parts of your roof is not correct, water can condense and drip down onto your ceiling.
Not good, attention to detail, when installing new roofs flat or pitched, is paramount now that we heat our housed and insulate to the today’s standards.
