Editor's Note: Peter Lacovara, Senior Curator at Emory University's Carlos Museum, has worked on numerous expeditions in Egypt and published several books on his work and experience, including The Pyramids and Sphinx, Tombs and Temples of Giza, and Excavating Egypt: Great Discoveries from the Petrie Museum of Egyptology. The first blog in this series can be found here.
For some years, Abydos was a rather difficult place to visit in Egypt, requiring special permission for tourists. Today, the site is a bit more accessible. Though one cannot say that it holds great sightseeing treasures like the Great Pyramids of Giza or the Temples of Luxor, its significance in Egyptian history cannot be questioned.
Many mysteries surround this archaeological site. It was a holy site to the Egyptians, where some of the earliest rulers were probably buried, but it remained a focus of religious activity for thousands of years.
One such mystery surrounds the rubble core and casing stone that marks the remains of the last known royal pyramid built in Egypt, by the founder of the New Kingdom, Ahmose. A textual reference records a pyramid built by Tuthmosis I at Abydos, but nothing of it has ever been discovered.
In 1993, the Pennsylvania-Yale Institute of Fine Arts Expedition, led by Stephen Harvey, began a new survey of this complex, initiating ongoing excavations at and around the pyramid. We visited Stephen in 2002 during his stay at the Hotel Longchamps, a favorite Tour Egypt hotel on Zamalek in Cairo that has also become home for many Egyptologists on their way to their digs. Stephen has since moved on to the University of Chicago's Oriental Institute, but his excavations continue, and a number of interesting finds have been made.
In 2003, the team discovered three new buildings in Abydos. Among their findings were walls and related buildings near another pyramid, engraved bricks with the names of people responsible for the construction of the buildings, fragments of decorated limestone temple reliefs, parts of statues, and small inscribed stone slabs used as part of worship that are known as votive stelae.
The discoveries are part of a collection of documentation that pushes back the date of complex artistic representation of warfare in Egypt. The site has yielded the earliest-known paintings of horses and chariots used in battle, as well as the earliest-known representation of a practice that later became common in battle documentation: paintings of collections of the severed hands of enemies.
But Abydos has other stories to tell, such as those suggesting some women held extraordinary levels of power within their communities.
One of the buildings the team discovered is a temple that was likely dedicated to Ahmose Nefertary, the wife and sister of the Pharaoh Ahmose, who ruled from about 1550 to 1525 B.C. and built Egypt's last pyramid. The team also excavated at a pyramid dedicated to another important woman, Queen Tetisheri, grandmother of Ahmose and his wife.
Other areas around the pyramid have proved easier to deal with, however. In addition to the temple believed to be dedicated to Ahmose Nefertary, the team also found another temple. They also will excavate a large structure that measures 115 by 130 feet, and which may have been an administrative or production center for a cult that developed around Ahmose, who was considered a god. Located near what is thought to have been a bakery, this administration building may provide clues that underscore one of the sites fundamental values: it contains structures that are part of a working community. Scholars will learn what role the temple played in the economy and social organization of the community.
Hence, the Pyramid complex of Ahmose at Abydos, located at the junction between the low desert and the floodplain, not only includes a temple, but also a large, unfinished rock-cut tomb far out in the desert, and beyond that, at the foot of the cliffs, a stone and brick-walled platform probably intended to support a building which appears never to have been constructed. About halfway between the pyramid and tomb is the brick shrine dedicated to Ahmose's grandmother, Tetisheri, where a stela that recorded Ahmose's decision to build a shrine for her was found.
Really, of all the pyramids built in Egypt, that of Ahmose at Abydos is one of the most intriguing.
It signals the end of the Pyramid Age and to some extent, a changing of the guards in funerary practices. The earliest pyramids were focused on the sun god, Re, but even prior to Ahmose, the mythology surrounding the funerary god, Osiris, was being incorporated into the substructures of the later pyramids. By building his complex at Abydos, Ahmose certainly intended to associate his mortuary cult more directly with Osiris. After Ahmose, the kings of Egypt would, for the most part, completely abandon the pyramid structure.
However, Ahmose's predecessors in the 17th Dynasty (Second Intermediate Period) were buried under similarly steeply angled, though much smaller, pyramids. Dr. Harvey suggests that Ahmose's pyramid was intended to evoke a memory of the powerful national rulers of earlier periods, and hence reinforce his legitimacy as their heir. Given the substantial size of Ahmose's pyramid, this is an attractive suggestion. Clearly, during the future excavations by Harvey's team, the complex will offer up many interesting finds and advance our knowledge of the founding of Egypt's New Kingdom empire period.

Student or Learner
Hello forum,
I would like to work with the following extract out of a CNN report:
Guus Hiddink has stepped down as Turkey coach after his side failed to qualify for the Euro 2012 finals.
The Turkish football federation says it has reached a mutual agreement to end the former Chelsea manager's contract, which was due to expire next summer.
Turkey lost 3-0 on aggregate to Croatia after a 0-0 draw in the second leg of the play-offs on Tuesday.
Hiddink, 65, took on his fifth national team role in August 2010 and oversaw Turkey's second-placed Group A finish.
Hiddink had previously led the Netherlands, South Korea, Australia and Russia, plus club sides including PSV Eindhoven, Real Madrid and Chelsea.
OK, so far the text. It will be given to a young student to enhance his text comprehension. There will be some unfamilar vokabulary in the text but he should be able to understand the core of it quite well.
My questions regarding the text:
Turkish football federation (not Turkish Football Federation?)
Is the following statement right (also grammatically)?
If Guus Hiddink had qualified for the Euro 2010, he would have stayed coach of Turkey's football team.
Summary: After Guus Hiddink missed to qualify for the Euro 2012, he had to quit his
job as national trainer of Turkey's football team.
Thank you for your time and your assessment of my own analysis.

Allen Mclendonsubmitted by wife Annie
Allen McClendon IS superdad. I met Allen when he returned from serving in Iraq in 2004. We married in 2005 and now have 2 beautiful children, Grady and Sadie. Allen has worked his way up in the world in order to provide for our family, but has always made our family his top priority. He lets me sleep in on the weekends and wakes up early to cook special meals for the children. He even stayed up most nights with our children when they were infants, probably more than I. Not only does he do everything for our family, but he also makes sure he is at most every doctors appointment with his mother, who was diagnosed with stage 4 lung cancer last year. While his mother was going through Chemo, he also took care of his grandfather, making sure his end of life needs were met at the Tuscaloosa VA. My husband is a super dad, super husband, super son, and super grandson. The total package.

My dad is very special to me in so many ways that words can't even describe. He has been through a lot over the past few years but he has always been there for me no matter what. In 2011, when the tornado came through Tuscaloosa, it destroyed my home. After my dad got me moved and settled in with him and my mom, he loaded up his truck and took supplies and things to Phil Campbell to help those people in need. No one sees the things that I do about my dad. I really love and appreciate him and everything that he has done for me and my family. He has been my rock for a very long time.I love him very much!

I want to start off by saying that I have an out of this world super dad and here's why. My biological father left my mom when I was a baby. My super dad came along a little after, gave me his last name, nurtured me, & loved me like I was his own. I moved in with my super dad when I was a sophomore in high school. My sister was still in middle school & growing, I was a teenager in high school trying to fit in & scared.
My super dad was single & making sure we had what we needed. It can be hard but in the midst of it all, he taught us money doesn't matter as long as we a roof, food, and family. I wasn't able to get my diploma & felt like a failure but here came my super dad to save the day. He gave me the strength to keep going until I got my GED a month later. Growing up, I have failed but I know my super dad will be there when I need him.
It takes a real life super man to do what he has done. For everything he has saved me from, he will always be my hero.

My Daddy is by far Super Dad. From day one of my soon to be 49 years on this earth he has loved, supported, encouraged and stood by me and my brothers in everything. He took nothing for himself but was always giving to us and very involved with all of our extra activities, playing ball, riding motorcycles or whatever we did he was sure to be part of. One thing I want to say about him though is that in the 49 years he was married to our mother, Linda Edmonds. Daddy was a very dedicated man to his wife and loved like no other ever could have. We watched the affection he had for our mother and didn't mind showing it growing up and what that instilled in us as children to adults was the kind of family I wanted to have. Why I feel my Daddy is "Super Dad" because on February 14th, 2012, he lost the love of his life and bride of 49 years to the day. My mother passed on Valentine's Day, their 49th wedding anniversary, but yet had the determination to carry on the strength to pass on to us.

Terry Greenesubmitted by daughter Chelsea
My dad is an awesome father of three children: my brother, my husband, and me. He should be crowned Tuscaloosa's Super Dad. My dad is the hardest working man I know. A few years ago, my dad lost his job. This was very unexpected. My dad immediately started looking for another job. During this time he worked three part-time jobs. My brother and I were both in college at the time and my dad continued to help us pay for school. He did without things he wanted so that our family could have the things we needed. And not once did he complain. My dad is caring and kind. Not only does he love and care for his own family, my father loves everyone. He never meets a stranger and is quick to help those in need. As long as I can remember he has put others' needs before his own. My father has always given us his best. He has shared his values and wisdom with me. I am the wife and mother I am because of him. This year is a very special Father's Day. My dad is a granddad to a 4 week old baby girl! :)

Our daughter and my husband were in an accident July 2009. My husband was in the back of the truck with our pet and our daughter was driving. As she crossed highway 82, they were struck by a car ejecting her Dad and our pet out of the back of the truck. He landed on the pavement. He broke his pelvis in seven places, had a punctured lung, broken ankle, broken arm, beat and bruised, etc. Our daughter was getting married November 2009. After several surgeries, a reconstructed pelvis, pins in sacrum and ankle, lots of prayers,and months in UAB and Northport DCH the wedding came and so did our miracle! He was determined to walk his daughter down the isle and with his determination and God's power - He did! He is our Super Dad and we serve a mighty God!

Theron Beardsubmitted by fiancé Sherri
Theron (aka Chris) is super dad because he works very hard to provide for me and our 3 kids. About 7 & 1/2 years ago he started taking care of my oldest son and he chose to be his daddy when the biological father wouldn't step up! He is my son's father in everyday that counts. He didn't have to do what he did but that just proves how much he really loves us. He was there for me when my father had a 6 bypass almost 7 years ago. I couldn't ask for a better man to be the best daddy to our 3 beautiful babies!

Wade Wyattsubmitted by wife Shannon
He is a super dad because every day that he comes in from work our 7 month old boy Braxton has the biggest smile on his face and says daddy with is arms reaching for him. He works 7 days a week with no off time and he does tree work on the side so I can be a stay at home mom because he feels that family and me being there is more important than me working so he does all he can to make that happen. He helps me any way he can when he gets home with Braxton and already is teaching him family values and what a dad is all about - being there with all the love and support that a dad should give. He is everything a super dad is all about!

Students and faculty members from the University of Rio Grande/Rio Grande Community College are being seen and heard locally and around the world through a series of weekly podcasts and videos that focus on business-related topics.
The podcasts and videos are a collaborative effort between Rio Grande's Masters of Business Administration (MBA) in Entrepreneurship program and the Ohio State University South Centers.
The weekly show is "Business Talk," and it is broadcast on television on the Rio Grande campus channel and on the cable television system in Jackson. It is a live production that begins at 4 p.m. each Wednesday. In addition, the podcasts and videos of the program are also posted online.
The podcasts and videos have been accessed locally and around the world. In fact, people in more than 140 countries around the world have watched or listened to the programs already.
"I'm very pleased with how successful it has become," said Patrick Dengel, business development specialist for OSU South Centers.
Dengel, who works closely with Rio Grande's MBA program and even has an office in Bob Evans Farms Hall on the Rio Grande campus, collaborates on the Business Talk shows with MBA student Nate Walzer; Jason Winters, the director of the Center for Small Business Entrepreneurship at Rio Grande; and Mike Thompson, instructional design and media services director at Rio Grande.
The idea behind the program is to promote Rio Grande and its diverse educational programs; promote the OSU South Centers and everything it offers; help support local businesses and organizations; promote southern Ohio; and provide a great learning opportunity for Rio Grande's MBA students.
Each week, the program welcomes in guests from the community to talk about business-related topics. A few of the most recent topics include legal services, online newspapers, the American Marketing Association chapter at Rio Grande, services available to local businesses, world economics, farmers markets, tourism-related businesses, management styles and new technology available for businesses.
Walzer, Winters, Thompson and Dengel do all the work for the programs, from interviewing guests, running the cameras and doing the technical work. Walzer also creates promotional videos and other materials for each week's program. Dengel said that the MBA student is doing outstanding work on "Business Talk," and added that it will help him in his career.
A big part of being successful in business is knowing how to communicate effectively, and knowing how to market your products and services in new ways. This experience is giving Walzer the opportunity to hone his skills in these areas, and it will also benefit other MBA students who assist with the program.
Rio Grande and the OSU South Centers began creating the "Business Talk" programs in 2010, and other MBA students have also been involved with and have benefited from the program.
The program started out as a podcast, and later turned into the online videos and programs on local cable television stations. Dengel is also now filming a series of informational and training videos for businesses and students, and these programs have also proved to be very successful.
Dengel keeps track of how many people view all of the programs, and he has watched the popularity of "Business Talk" and other programs increase since 2010. Currently, the programs have had more than 15,700 views, and the numbers go up each week. He has also received positive feedback from people who are accessing the programs locally and around the world. "We're very happy that so many people are watching and listening to our programs, and we hope they are enjoying them and learning from them," Dengel said. "I know that we enjoy making them, and our students are gaining a great deal of experience by being a part of this project."
In order to access any of the podcasts, Dengel invites anyone interested to log onto http://www.blogtalkradio.com/a-patrick-dengel. All interested people are also encouraged to log onto YouTube at www.youtube.com, and search under Rio Grande Business Talk to watch the videos of the programs. The Facebook page for the program, located at www.facebook.com/theosurio also provides additional information.
For more information on Business Talk, Rio Grande's MBA program or the OSU South Centers, call Jason Winters at 1-800-282-7201 or Patrick Dengel at 740-708-7810.

Film Review: Rust and Bone: A Love Story with Blood and Bruises
Opens December 21 at the Embarcadero and Sundance Kabuki Theatres in San Francisco
Opens January 11 at Berkeley's Shattuck Theatre
Director Jacque Audiard's uncompromising new film, Rust and Bone, has a unique look and feel. The film begins with mesmerizing images of faces and forms flashing and fading in a daze of light and shadow — like tossed playing cards briefly glimpsed as they tumble past your eyes. The effect creates a sense of uncertainty that suggests a disquieting moral: "There are tides in life that draw us in unknowable directions. We are not in control of our fortunes. We can only influence — and sometimes rise above — the rubble of life's turbulence but we are never free and independent."
Audiard has described his cinematography as "expressionist," explaining that he wanted "the power of stark, brutal, clashing images in order to further the melodrama." He succeeds.
Rust and Bone was inspired by a roughhouse collection of short stories by American writer Craig Davidson. Audiard, a great fan of Davidson's writing, kept the grit and danger of the original tales but transformed two of Davidson's stories into a new mash-up that amazed even the author. Audiard also added something that was lacking in Davidson's original stories — a love interest.
Co-stars Marion Cotillard and Matthias Schoenaerts strip themselves bare (figuratively and literally). When it comes to Oscar nominations Cotillard and Schoenaerts both deserve a nod but Cotillard (who dazzled screengoers with her 2007 breakout role as Edith Piaf in La Vie en Rose) has a leg up on the competition. (Or maybe that should be two legs off.)
In the most accomplished example of film manipulation since Gary Sinese lost his limbs in Forest Gump, Cotillard spends most of her screen time with her legs missing from the knees down. (It's astonishing to watch as Cotillard drags herself across a floor, the stumps of her severed legs moving in and out of focus. Or watching as she swims through the ocean with her amputated limbs visible through the chop and wobble of the waves.)
When Stéphanie (Cotillard) first encounters Ali (Schoenaerts), it is anything but the typical Hollywood "meet cute." Their encounter occurs in a crowded dance club where Stéphanie has been knocked to the floor with a bloody nose. Ali, one of the club bouncers, comes to her aid. Before parting, he hands her his phone number. (No big thing: Ali is not interested in attachments, only casual sex. He picks up women with the same sense of entitlement that he grabs drinks from his sister's refrigerator.)
We discover that, when Stéphanie's not pushing the envelope in the club scene, she can be found at a French Marineworld where she sends killer whales leaping out of the water with a self-confident flick of her wrist. One day, however, something goes terribly wrong and it happens just the way it would happen in real life — you don't see it coming and you don't exactly see what hit you. There's just something sudden, unexpected and overwhelming. Followed by stunned silence and an unconscious body bleeding underwater.
Stéphanie awakens to a shattered world. Confined to a wheelchair, she spirals into isolation, self-loathing and despair. When she reaches out to Ali, he literally places her burdens on his powerful shoulders. He carries her to a nearby beach where, buoyed by the waves, she reclaims her physical independence by swimming away from the shore (turning her back on the world of the walking). Feeding off Ali's physical strength, Stéphanie regains the courage to plunge back into life. Stéphanie's recovery will eventually lead to a wonderful moment where she returns to the orca tank, stands alone in silhouette before the a large transparent wall, and taps her hand on the glass. What happens next is everything you would hope for. It's pure magic.
Ali is an exasperating character (and the fact that he is so borderline unlikeable is a credit to Schoenaerts' skill as an actor). He is a self-absorbed Alpha-male, shoving his way through life on a diet of alcohol and testosterone. When he's not boxing, jogging or shagging the next available strumpet, he's sitting in front of a TV analyzing kickboxing videos.
Ali is struggling financially. He's on the move and he's been forced to crash at his sister's house. Adding to his burdens is Sam, his young son, who needs more attention than his father is willing to grant him. When Ali's sister tells him to "watch Sam" while she's gone, you just know Ali's going to ignore the boy and trouble will follow.
Despite the odds, Ali and Stéphanie begin to bond (good news for fans of amputee sex fantasies). As Ali's career as a street-fighter begins to gain traction, Stéphanie (now nick-named "Robocop" and swaggering about on prosthetic metallic legs) becomes a fight organizer at these orgiastic, back-ally battles where muscled men strip to their waists and pummel each other until blood and money begin to flow.
Stéphanie's motherly concern for little Sam transfers to Ali who begins to drop his emotional armor and starts behaving like a parent. But one day on a frozen lake, a moment's inattention (which is guaranteed to send a shiver of apprehension down a viewer's spine) will lead to a parent's worst nightmare.
Throughout the film, people bleed and people weep but, at the end, these people come to need each other and their bond is rewarded (in a closing scene that is so pat, it could almost pass as a dream sequence). Rust and Bone concludes with an indelible bit of information about the human body: While most broken bones will heal and often become stronger, the 27 bones in the human fist are fragile — once they've been fractured, they will carry the memory of that pain forever.

With the Windows 8 RTM right around the corner, Microsoft has unveiled a slew of new hardware products tailored towards Windows 8 PCs and devices.
The first one that was announced is the Wedge Mobile Keyboard. Designed specifically for tablets, it connects via Bluetooth to tablets, and is designed to be as small and portable as possible without compromising the typing experience. Also, a nice touch to it — and the other keyboard that was announced today — is that it comes designed with the new logo on the Windows key. On top of this touch to really indicate that it was built in the Windows 8 era, the keyboard also sports some hotkeys for Windows 8's Charms. Building a tablet that's both extremely portable and pleasant to use is quite a challenge, as anyone who has used an average netbook keyboard can attest to.
In order to bring your Wedge Mobile Keyboard with you while on the go, they have also created a pretty nifty cover that's made of a rubber material. Not only does it protect the keyboard from scratches, but, when kept in a bag next to its accompanying tablet, it helps prevent the tablet from getting scratches as well. Finally, the cover can bend at the middle, forming a tablet kickstand.
Next up, we have the mouse counterpart of the keyboard, which is aptly named the Wedge Touch Mouse. With a peculiar size and shape, it definitely seems portable. However, I'm going to reserve my opinions on its comfort level and ergonomics until I actually get my hands on one. There's no word on whether any advanced gestures will be available for it, but we do know that it will come with four-way touch scrolling. The Wedge Mobile Keyboard will be available soon for $79.95, and the Wedge Touch Mouse will be available for $69.95.
The next pair of keyboard/mouse siblings announced by the company are the Sculpt Touch Mouse and Sculpt Mobile Keyboard. They're a bit larger in form factor than the Wedge series of peripherals while still remaining relatively mobile. They both connect to your PC via Bluetooth as well, and have been updated for Windows 8. And, like the Wedge Mobile Keyboard, it comes with those very same hotkeys to help make you more productive on Windows 8. The Sculpt Mobile Keyboard will be available for $49.95, and the Sculpt Touch Mouse will be available for the same cost as well sometime soon.
And finally, Microsoft announced that a slew of new gestures for Windows 8 are coming to the existing Microsoft Touch Mouse:
- A one finger swipe will allow you to move side to side or up and down, shifting content on your screen.
- Two finger movements manage apps, allowing users to display Windows 8 charms, switch through open apps and show app commands.
- Three finger movements will let you zoom in and out.
- Thumb gestures navigate backward and forward through apps.

So who should pick the teams? Should the captain have a say? Should he have the full say on team selection? Or just a slight input?
It's just interesting when players like Peterson and Lewis are selected, its obvious that they can't seem to cut the mustard, and the captain has no faith in them whatsoever, whats the point in them playing?

Thousands of women possessed by SIRI - slip into trance...
Girl, possessed: All the world is trance
Shrinidhi KharjeFirst Published : 19 Jan 2009 05:43:00 AM ISTLast Updated : 19 Jan 2009 11:37:01 AM IST
MANGALORE: Siri jathre- a unique Tuluva ritual organised anually on a full moon day (between February and May), witnesses thousands of female devotees slipping into a sort of trance after being 'possessed' simultaneously by Siri spirits.
The unique ritual is followed by the devotees clad in white saris, singing Siri paddanas related to Siri spirit. On the day of Siri jathre, women come from far-flung villages to offer their prayers and serve the God through Siri spirit.
The scene of women wearing white saris and clutching pingara flowers in their hands is a common scene at Siri jathre. Noted Tulu scholar professor Amrutha Someshwara says, "most of the women devotees participating at the jathre are from dalits and backward classes.
Most of them have faced intense hardships and pain in their life." Chandrashekhara Rao, a 'Patri' (who officiates between spirits and devotees) at the Hiriyadka Veerabhadra temple says that nearly 10,000 people gather on the day of Siri Jatre. Siri Jathre is popular in Hiriyadka near Manipal, Nandalike in Karkala, Kavattaru in Mangalore and Nidgal in Ujire.

Sempervivum Borisii Cilosum
Sempervivum Borisii Cilosum
Photo's taken in February displayed in a 75 mm pot
Please Note: The first photo is a specimen photo for display purposes only. This is to show how a mature plant will look and IS NOT THE SIZE of the actual plant for sale. Please refer to the other photos of plants displayed in the 75 mm pot to get an estimate of the size of the plant for sale.
Sempervivums will also change colours throughout the year and the plants for sale may look different to the specimen photo. This often occurs due to the changes in seasons, as in how hot or cold it is, growing conditions such as how much shade or sun they receive and the age of the plant. It is often common for the developing pups on the plants to look very different to the parent plant.
Although the best care is taken when picking and packing each plant, some of the side pups may become separated from the parent plant when packed.
You will receive the same or similar plant as shown in the picture.
Colours of plants may change according to the season or day length so may appear a little different than photo.
All plants are posted bare rooted without pots or potting mix

The expected benefits of economical, high-performance and high-speed civil-aircraft designs that are being considered for the future will be realized only through the development of light-weight, high-temperature composite materials for structure and engine applications, to reduce weight, fuel consumption, and direct operating costs.
Project Objectives
The objective is to identify and assess advanced lightweight materials which can withstand ultra high temperatures and heat fluxes, enabling flight at speeds above Mach 3. At these high speeds, classical materials used for airframes and propulsion units are not longer viable and need to be replaced by high-temperature, lightweight materials, with active cooling of some parts.
Description of Work
Almost no studies have been performed on supersonic transport vehicles above Mach 3. Concorde and other studies on supersonic transport in America and Japan limited the flight speed to Mach 2 to 2.4, allowing the use of normal aluminium alloys. However, a wide range of heat resistant and light-weight materials are now available but their definition and implementation requires the availability of vehicle system conditions and constraints.
Therefore, the first task will be the revision of the overall design for high-speed transports to increase the lift/drag ratio and volumetric efficiency through the 'compression lift' and 'waverider' principles, taking into account sonic boom reduction. This should allow vehicle definitions for Mach 3 and Mach 6 cruise flight.
Secondly, materials and cooling techniques and their interaction with aero-thermal loads will be addressed for both airframe and propulsion components. The former will focus on sharp leading edges, intakes and skin materials coping with different aero-thermal loads, the latter on combustion chamber liners. After material characterisation and shape definition at specific aero-thermal loadings, dedicated on-ground experiments will be conducted. Both Ceramic Matrix Composites (CMC) and heat resistant metals will be tested to evaluate their thermal and oxidiser resistance. In parallel, novel cooling techniques based on transpiration and electro-aerodynamic principles will be investigated.
Combined aero-thermal experiments will test various materials specimens with a realistic shape at extreme aero-thermal conditions for elevated flight Mach numbers. Dedicated combustion experiments on CMC combustion chambers will allow the reduction of combustion liner cooling resulting into NOx-reduction and overall thermal efficiency increase.
Finally, particular aero-thermal-material interaction will strongly influence the aerothermal loadings. Conjugate heat transfer, transpiration cooling and compressible transition phenomena are investigated and modelled.
Expected Results
The project duration will be 36 months and is expected to result in:
- the definition of the requirements and operational conditions at system level
- performing of dedicated, in-depth experiments for material characterisation in combination with aero-thermal loads and combustion processes
- setting-up and validation of physical models integrated into numerical simulation tools

CHICAGO, Ill. (December 17, 2011) — In a continuing effort to scout and sign the world's best talent, Bellator Fighting Championships has added two dynamic bantamweights in Masakatsu Ueda and Hiroshi "Iron" Nakamura. Both will compete in the promotion's upcoming Season 6 Bantamweight Tournament, joining Alexis Vila, Marcos Galvao, Ed West, Rodrigo Lima, Luis Nogueira and a yet to be named final participant.
Ueda joins Bellator already well established within the MMA community, holding notable wins over Royler Gracie and current Bellator Season 5 Bantamweight Tournament Champion Eduardo Dantas. With those victories Ueda is widely considered one of the best bantamweights in the world, holding rank in nearly every major Top 10 list. Armed with one of the best grappling pedigrees in the sport, Ueda should be considered a serious contender heading into the deepest bantamweight tournament in Bellator history.
"Iron" Nakamura should have no problem sustaining a long tournament run, as the scrappy bantamweight has fought seven times since the beginning of 2010, including a unanimous decision victory over Seiji Akao on December 16th. Holding a 3-1 record alone in 2011, Nakamura will look to keep the momentum going against a tournament field that currently holds an impressive 87-20-6 record.
Bellator's sixth season kicks of Friday, March 2nd LIVE on MTV2 and in commercial-free HD on EPIX, while the preliminary fights are streamed LIVE and FREE across the globe on Spike.com. Bellator Season 6 will feature five eight-man tournaments in the bantamweight, featherweight, lightweight, welterweight and middleweight divisions.

Flights to Greece with Qatar Airways
Greece is one of the most popular countries in Europe to visit, and has been for thousands of years. Famous for its sandy beaches, dramatic backdrops and diverse landscape, Greece is a magnet for travellers looking to relax and explore some culture. Travel to Greece with Qatar Airways and discover a country that offers everything from nature to history in one fascinating location.
Greece is composed of a number of distinct regions with their own traditions and identities. Most of the land is mountainous and largely uninhabited. While Athens is home to almost a third of the country, many offshore islands are inhabited today as well, and are without doubt some of the most popular tourist destinations in the world.
The country's strategic location between Europe, Asia and Africa made it the a place of interest for many conquerors throughout the years. Several great powers have passed through these lands and left a myriad of influences and sites that have survived to this day. Relics of the Mycenaean and Byzantine civilisations are dotted across the country.
Many of the original buildings have survived from the time of Socrates and Plato, including temples such as the Parthenon, which stands with other notable monuments in the Acropolis, an ancient site sitting atop a hill in Greece. On the south slope of the Acropolis lies the world's first theatre, and another magnificent structure standing to this day.
Visitors flock every year to the Greek islands for sun, sand and sea, and also the famously relaxed lifestyle. The various island groups are linked by regular ferry services, and a popular activity is island-hopping. Fly to Greece with Qatar Airways and explore elegant neoclassical buildings, museums and art galleries in this historical country.

The roses listed here are suitable for growing in poor soil. They are all particularly strong, robust varieties. The Old Roses are great survivors, and are, unsurprisingly, extremely tough and hardy, particularly the Gallicas, which will even grow in poor gravelly soil if required. The Rugosas are another group of roses that will grow in soil that other roses might be unable to thrive in. Some of David Austin's English Roses and few of the Floribundas are also suitable for growing in poor soils.

These vegan cupcakes are very moist and decadent. The peanut butter filling doubles as a cake filling.
- Yield
- Serves 18 (Makes 18 cupcakes)
- 2 3/4 cups sprouted spelt flour or whole wheat pastry flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 2 teaspoons baking soda
- 3/4 teaspoon sea salt
- 2/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder, sifted
- 1/2 cup canola oil
- 1 1/4 cups light agave nectar
- 1 cup soy milk
- 1/2 cup firm silken tofu
- 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons raw apple cider vinegar
- 12 ounces light firm silken tofu
- 1/2 cup light agave nectar
- 1 cup smooth peanut butter
- 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
- Vegan Chocolate Ganache Frosting
- Chopped toasted peanuts, for garnish (optional)
- Preheat the oven to 325°F. Line 2 cupcake pans with 18 paper liners and fill the empty cups half full of water to prevent scorching.
- To make the cupcakes, mix the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and cocoa powder together in a large bowl. In a food processor, blend the canola oil, agave nectar, soy milk, tofu, vanilla extract, and vinegar, scraping down the bowl often. Blend until very smooth, with no chunks of tofu visible, about 2 to 3 minutes. Combine the wet ingredients with the dry ingredients. Stir well and spoon into the prepared cupcake pan, leaving some room at the top of each cup. Bake for 20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a cupcake comes out clean. Remove the cupcakes from the pan and place on a cooling rack. Cool completely before filling and frosting.
- To prepare the filling, blend the tofu in a food processor until very smooth and creamy, approximately 1 to 2 minutes. Add the agave nectar and blend again. Add the peanut butter, vanilla extract, and salt and blend thoroughly until very light and smooth. Refrigerate for 1 to 2 hours to firm before filling the cupcakes.
- To assemble the cupcakes, you will need a pastry bag fitted with a large, plain smooth tip. Fill the pastry bag with peanut butter mousse and insert the tip halfway into the top of a cupcake. Squeeze filling inside each cupcake just until it starts to expand.
- Next frost the tops. If the frosting is too firm, heat in the microwave for a few seconds to soften it up. Spread the ganache evenly over the tops of the cupcakes. Let the cupcakes sit in the refrigerator until ready to serve.
- Garnish with peanuts if desired.

Spraying viscous materials
Termopian is a company located in Poland that produces and sells sprayable roof coatings, sprayable paint and sprayable viscous waterproof coatings.
Polyurethane foams evolutions
The company dates back to 1988, when Termopian made their mark on the construction market. Their main service was insulation with foam which was poured into the free spaces between walls.
In 1991, Termopian entered the roofing market. In 2005, they launched the production of Izolbest paints for polyurethane foams. In 2009, Thanks to a very dynamic development of the polyurethane market in Poland, Termopian launched a professional production line of special Izolbest polyurethane protective coatings against ultraviolet radiation, followed by a new polyurethane roofing coating called Izolbest-PRO against mechanical damage. For this purpose, specific spray units with large capacity compressors were bought. With these machines, the Izolbest-PRO coating could be applied by spraying. In 2012, based on many years of experience, a new sprayable roofing insulation, TermoPiana, was launched.
Optimal configuration
So far, Termopian has sprayed about 1 000 000 m² of thermal insulation, waterproof and chemical resistant coatings. They use Graco's Reactor H-40 to spray TermoPiany roofing, Graco's Xtreme 70:1 sprayer to spray Izolbest paint, and Graco's Mark V Max for spraying Hydrobest waterproof coatings.
Thanks to the high performance and the fully equipped machinery, Temopian prefers to use Graco products. "The prices and quality of the machines clearly show the most optimal configuration for Termopian's requirements. With more than 20 years of experience using Graco machines, we can confirm that Graco units are ideal for spraying Termopian-Izolbest paints", a Termopian employee says.
Some tips that Termopian can pass on are that outside paint applications should be carried out during stable and favourable weather conditions; during drying, the coating should not be exposed to rain or water; and Termopian paint supplied in sealed packaging is ready to use and only requires mechanical mixing. It is important therefore not to dilute the paint.

Just a quick note to say I'll be flying back to San Francisco today after a fun, and quite delicious three days in New York City. I'll be back in the office tomorrow and I'll try and catch-up on the comments and emails ("try" being the key word). The Hellmann's Club Sandwich event went very well, and I learned a couple cool tricks from Iron Chef Bobby Flay, which I can't wait to share. Stay tuned!

Have you heard the good news?
The Michigan Wolverine Football Program made $61.6 MILLION in 2011-12.
For most organizations it would be cause for celebration. In Ann Arbor it was time to raise prices.
Yes, despite record profits the Michigan Athletic Department announced that is raising taxes on football season ticket holders…err increasing the amount of preferred seat donations for those who wish to keep their season tickets.
The move will help pad the bottom line of the Athletic Department and help to fuel another wave of buildings on the athletic campus.
But the move intensifies the debate of how skyrocketing ticket prices impact the sustainability of the athletic department profit model.
The ranks of basketball and hockey season ticket holders have been thinned by years of price increases and student season ticket holder numbers have likewise fluctuated.
With huge pockets of empty seats in the student section in Michigan Stadium this past season, it appears that even football isn't immune to the impact of high ticket prices. Many season ticket holders began attending games as students, transitioning to public season ticket holders after graduation. The Athletic Department risks losing these fans as they graduate.
Many current football season tickets holders are selling a portion of their season tickets to help subsidize their costs. This latest increase have caused some to question the true value of their season tickets. With a waiting list for football season ticket holders, the athletic department seems to be immune to people not renewing their season tickets.
If the athletic department could weather the RichRod era with its losing record and NCAA scandal, a few lost season ticket holders doesn't seem like a big deal. But with every long time fan who gives up their football, hockey, or basketball season tickets the athletic department gets in return a customer with little or no loyalty to Michigan Athletics.
As the Big Ten expands to include such powerhouses as Maryland and Rutgers, season ticket holders are questioning what kind of games they'll be seeing in the Big House in future seasons. While the future impact of expansion and tickets prices are unknown, the people making the current decisions won't be around to face the long term ramifications of these recent developments.
I'm sure we haven't seen the end of the money grab. Big Ten expansion will only drive revenues so far. Online viewing will start to erode the stranglehold of cable television and then the Big Ten Network will need to some other source cash. That's why within the next 5 years we'll see major event games follow the pay-per-view model. It's the next logical step in the evolution of greed.
The conference will win, the schools will win, and college football will be headed down the road to being about as relevant as boxing.
It's a bleak future when the people running your athletic program care more about dollars than fans. But more and more it seems that the short sighted greed of a few will lead to the death of college football as we know it.

Attempt to Sway Election With Free Weed Goes Up in Smoke
Politics is on the mind of many people this time of year but one California community is taking their civic duty to new heights, with voter turnout for a recent local election hitting record levels. The reason? Free weed.
In the Los Angeles suburb of Eagle Rock, the number of voters turning up at the polls to vote in a recent city council election hit a record, ahem, high. In the days leading up to the election, an anonymous flier was distributed throughout town promising voters who could show they voted for the Progress and Collaboration Slate $40 worth of free medical (*wink, wink*) marijuana.
Almost 800 Eagle Rock residents turned out to vote, nearly ten times as many as usual. Incumbent city council members, who had recently voted to ban medical marijuana dispensaries in the community, say the flier was an attempt by pro-marijuana forces to hijack the election.
But, like many previous stoner political attempts, the effort was just half-baked. Only two of eight Progress and Collaboration candidates were elected.

|Whitlam Golf Hummer 1st Run Classic Heel Golf Putter
Price / 0
You Save / 0
The Whitlam Golf Hummer Classic Heel putter is set to be a very succesful Whitlam putter.. It's a considerable amount smaller and even softer off the face but not over heavy like many mallets. The ball just glides off the aluminium face and stability is now aided by the addition of Tungsten peripheral face weighting. While available, the early Hummers are part of a first run of 300.
Like the Hummer II, this putter combines a milled aluminium body with a 303 stainless steel top piece. The stainless steel portion of the putter is positioned towards the top of the putter creating a higher centre of gravity, and thus, creating a wonderful roll on the ball. Aluminium is a very soft material, so the feel of this putter is soft yet responsive.
- Right Handed
- No. 1 of 300 1ST Run
- Mallet
- Weight: 350g
- Aluminium Body
- Stainless Steel Top Weight
- Peripheral Weighting
- Yellow Whitlam Headcover

Whitlam Golf putters can be made to the measurements of any player with any requirements. Please feel free to give us a call or drop us an email if you have any queries about your purchase - email@example.com or 01884254836

Why you should buy this car:
You're a fast driver looking for a car you can wring the last drop of performance from, rewarding your mad skills. You want to be a fast driver and improve your not-yet-mad skills in a truly capable, but friendly car. You want to embarrass owners of fine, exotic automobiles. You have no shame. You read Jalopnik.
Why you shouldn't:
Style is more important to you than substance. You have "EVO" tattooed across your shoulders in flaming, tribal letters. You think your 1994 cherry red Corvette is the height of sophistication. You aren't prepared to sacrifice luxury, image, servicing costs and your drivers license at the altar of speed. You're 30 going on 45. You prefer car sites where the editors wear copious amounts of khaki.

Dear friends,
During my first month here at MedShare, I enjoyed spending quality time in each of our current distribution and volunteer centers (Atlanta, GA and San Francisco Bay Area) as well as those regions where we are evaluating expansion including the Mid-Atlantic (to include New York City, Baltimore, and Philadelphia) and South Florida (to include Miami, Ft. Lauderdale, and Boca Raton).
Everywhere I go, the message from our donors, partners, volunteers, staff, Board and council members is brilliantly consistent as they share with me stories of the amazing work MedShare has done for a country, hospital, clinic or project about which they care deeply. They all express great admiration and gratitude for the unique MedShare model that A.B. Short and Bob Freeman created 13 years ago….and they all convey with great urgency that we must continue to do more. The world needs "more" of what this MedShare team delivers.
The MedShare Board and staff have heard this plea for "more," and we are working to respond in partnership with strong leadership groups in both the Mid-Atlantic and South Florida regions. Dan Goldberg is leading our efforts in South Florida and has joined the MedShare Board. Sandy Tytel, Chair of our New York Council, and Seth Zachary, Trustee, are leading up a great group of Council members in New York. While we have much work ahead of us, there are already great things happening. For example, over the past few weeks we have received several hundred quality hospital beds from North Shore Long Island Jewish Health System. From Ghana to Ecuador and beyond, many of our worthy recipients lack adequate hospital beds; this donation will help MedShare meet those needs. We look forward to continuing this strong partnership with North Shore LIJ and building additional new relationships with health care facilities and suppliers in both markets.
There are many ways you can help us as we develop our plan for these new regions. Whenever MedShare is invited into a new region, we must develop strong partnership with local hospitals, medical supply manufacturers and distributors, volunteers, donors, and other nonprofit organizations. If you have ideas or recommendations of people or organizations we should contact in any either South Florida or the Mid-Atlantic, please send them our way. You can reach me at email@example.com or via Twitter @mrentz.
We also have several fun events coming up to "introduce" MedShare to the community in Boca Raton (October 26th at SPIN Ultra Lounge featuring The Beach Boys) and New York City (December 8th, The University Club, 6:15 cocktails, 7:30 dinner). We'd love for you to join us.
Thank you for your support and feedback as we work to provide expanded MedShare services in order to save more lives and support more communities.
In Service,
This letter is an excerpt from our October e-newsletter. For more – including a first-hand account of a Trustee's trip to NYC, our Clinton Global Initiative Commitment with icddr,b and Americares to strengthen health systems in Bangladesh, and how to get your family and friends involved – click here.

Rape kit testing led to arrest in 2003 rape of elderly woman
Wesley Bernard Gordon appeared in court on Monday, nine years after he allegedly attacked and raped an elderly woman in her Houston home.
The 40-year-old man, only recently charged with aggravated sexual assault in the case, has been implicated in other rapes since August 2003, when the now 86-year-old woman was attacked in her Braeswood apartment. Gordon was booked into Harris County jail Saturday, records show.
"It's been a long time, and I'm glad they got him," the victim said Monday. "I am just glad they got him off the street, so that he doesn't hurt anyone else."
Houston Police Department officials have said that a mislabeled rape kit in 2003 delayed charges being filed against Gordon for the elderly woman's rape.
Spotlight on backlog
In July of this year, the rape kit used by HPD was tested, and DNA linked Gordon to the case. Officials said the evidence, stored in the police property room, had been mislabeled and went untested.
Gordon's case trained yet another spotlight on the backlog of untested rape kits gathering dust in the property room, which holds 6,663 untested kits.
Two months after that 2003 incident Gordon was implicated in the rape of a homeless woman. Since 2003, he has been charged with several sexual assaults.
After Gordon was officially charged in the elderly woman's case, HPD said the protocol used in 2003 that "contributed to the situation" will be analyzed and officials will take steps to prevent something similar in the future.
'I was so scared'
In the August 2003 case, the then-77-year-old woman was legally blind and could not identify her attacker. She had just come back from the grocery store, and she remembered it was raining.
He grabbed her as she sat at her dining room table paying bills.
"I was so scared," she told the Houston Chronicle in a recent interview. "It all happened so fast. ... He got a tight grip on me. He threw me down in my bedroom, and he wrapped a cord around my wrist. I couldn't believe it was happening."
The woman told investigators she prayed for strength, believing she might die, after her assailant punched her in the face and threw her to the floor.
Her attacker took off her clothes and raped her for about 10 minutes, before taking her purse and the money from her coin jar and piggy bank, court records show.
The woman said she was very surprised when an HPD officer called her to let her know her attacker had been identified.
She said she remembered the police officer telling her he did not know when they would be able to find him.
"After so long, I hadn't thought any more about it," she said. "I was wondering why it took so long and how they found out."
