Sonnetar 25mm f/1.1 lens coming with Micro Four Thirds mount

Just what the optician ordered: a prototype Micro Four Thirds 25mm lens that will put just 1.1 f-stops between you and a beautiful photograph. It's the work of specialist fast-glass maker Sadoyasu Miyazaki, who manufactures under the Sonnetar brand and is well know for his hand-assembled primes. There's no word on price or release date yet but the same lens with a Pentax Q mount can be had on eBay right now for $650 including shipping, so this MFT lens should be in the same range. Don some shades and then click the KTF Turbo link below for sample images (and look for "MS Optical R&D" in the top-right.)

Oscars 2012: Winners And Losers

From Emma Stone to Angelina Jolie's right leg, MTV News relives the best and worst of Sunday night's show.
By Eric Ditzian

The winners of the 2012 Oscars have already been announced. Those lucky men and women have already gone off, gleaming statuettes in hand, to jump from celeb-filled party to celeb-filled party and learn how to carry a champagne glass in one hand and an Academy Award in the other without spilling the former and breaking the latter.

But the official winners' list only tells part of the story of Sunday night's show. There were nipples that might have slipped, legs that poked bizarrely out and an ash-filled urn malfunction on the red carpet. There were front-runners who fell short and dark horses who pulled out unexpected victories. Who were the true winners and losers at the Oscars this year? Let's take a look...

Winner: Billy Crystal
Hauled out from some cryogenic awards-show freezer where time does not pass and wrinkles are not allowed to crease one's face, Crystal emerged onto the Oscar stage for the ninth time ... and didn't make us fall asleep. Much to our surprise, he was consistently funny (and at times, shockingly and thankfully, a tad mean), and delivered a bunch of LOL-worthy video bits.

Loser: Anne Hathaway and James Franco
Remember when the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences thought it needed to get all edgy, recruiting two hot young things to helm the biggest night in Hollywood? Hollywood, in turn, hated them. The ghosts of Hathaway and Franco's phoned-in performances could be seen every time Crystal belted out a parody tune or a Borscht Belt zinger to the sustained guffaws of his audience.

Winner: Jennifer Lopez's nipple
It was the singer's most talked-about release in at least a decade. And it may not have actually, ya know, been released from beneath her dress.

Loser: Angelina Jolie's right leg
'Cause, seriously, that was just weird.

Winner: The screenwriter who made fun of Angelina Jolie's right leg
After the "Descendants" won Best Adapted Screenplay, Jim Rash (who also happens to be a series regular on "Community") took to the stage and thrust his leg out in silent, searing mockery of Jolie's prominently displayed body part.

Winner: Emma Stone
She can sing, she can bust into an awesome old-timey voice, she can make fun of Ben Stiller and he'll just take it. The evening was filled with surprisingly funny presenters, but Stone's shtick won the night. Casting directors, listen up: Get that girl a big-screen musical stat!

Winner: Octavia Spencer
Long an awards-season darling, "The Help" ended up only nabbing a single Oscar. Best Supporting Actress winner Spencer made the best of the opportunity, breaking down in tears during a heartfelt acceptance speech in which she thanked everyone from her castmates to the state of Alabama.

Loser: Meryl Streep
Though she won Best Actress — which, according to our estimates, was the 37th Oscar win of her career — even Streep herself appeared sheepish to have swiped the category away from front-runner Viola Davis.

Winner: Sacha Baron Cohen
Handed the gift of a temporary ban from the Academy because he planned to walk the red carpet as his character from "The Dictator," Baron Cohen played the PR war game perfectly, releasing an amusing YouTube video before the show and then, after the Academy relented, spilling the faux-ashes of Kim Jong Il on Ryan Seacrest during a red-carpet interview.

Loser: The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences
The academy not only proved it had no sense of humor when it banned Baron Cohen, but showed it had no spine when it reinstated him and ended up posting his image on the front page of its Oscar website.

Loser: Michael Douglas
While it was great to see Douglas out on stage and looking so healthy after his battle with cancer, everyone was disappointed that his dad wasn't the one standing in front of the cameras. Then 94-year-old Kirk Douglas' show-stealing intro at last year's Oscars was bizarre and uncomfortable and kinda amazing.

Winner: Zach Galifianakis' inability to pronounce Zach Galifianakis' name
The white tux-clad presenter, perhaps reaching out to Michel Hazanavicius, his brother in unpronounceable surnames, butchered his own family name in the middle of a memorable bit with Will Ferrell.

Winner: The women of "Bridesmaids"
They may not have won an award, but their continuing bit about a Martin Scorsese drinking game was hilarious. And the fact that they were able to bring some humor to the shorts categories — comparing them to the male anatomy — was an impressive feat.

Loser: Bradley Cooper's mustache
Cooper might be the reigning Sexiest Man Alive, but his lip fuzz stood out as the night's creepiest collection of facial hair.

Loser: Bubba Smith
Every year, a handful of beloved actors are left off Oscar's "In Memoriam" montage. In 2012, poor Bubba Smith, who memorably played Hightower in the "Police Academy" movies and who passed away in August at the age of 66, didn't make the cut.

Who do you think were the biggest winners and losers of the night? Leave your comment below!

Rise Of The Robotic Bees

The Harvard Monolithic Bee (or "Mobee") pops up within an assembly scaffold, which performs more than 20 origami assembly folds in the process.

Do bees, swarms of bees, make you nervous? Maybe not. Maybe they remind you of honey, flowers and warm summer days. You stay out of their way and they stay out of yours. What if, however, the bees weren't bees at all but hundreds (or thousands) of autonomous microbots, facsimiles of the real thing, buzzing around in the real world?

That's not Hollywood fantasy any more. It appears to be within reach. Researchers in the Microrobotics Lab at Harvard's School of Engineering and Applied Sciences say that they expect their Robobees project will demonstrate flying, autonomous micro-air-vehicles modeled on insects within the next 2 1/2 years.

?

It won't be easy, according to Rob Wood, the project's principal investigator.

"The challenges that you get when you scale these things down mean that you have to reinvent everything, everything has to come from scratch, every one of the technologies," Wood said in an interview last week. "There is nothing off the shelf."

His team has recently taken a significant step forward with the demonstration of a manufacturing process that they believe will pave the way to industrial-scale production of microbots, spitting out thousands of them with ease.

The prototype creature built with this process has been dubbed the "Mobee," short for Monolithic Bee. With its carbon-fiber airframe and titanium wings, it doesn't really look like a bee. It's more like an intricate box frame with insect-like wings. The creatures are so lightweight that Harvard says the mass of 63 Mobees is equal to the mass of one United States quarter.

Roughly speaking, the Mobee starts as more than 18 plain sheets of material. Each sheet of carbon fiber, titanium, plastic, etc. is cut to a certain pattern by a laser. The sheets are then sandwiched together into a cohesive whole. The final step is where the magic happens.

Jacks beneath the flat sandwich push upward, allowing hinges in the design to transform the package into a three-dimensional microbot. Largely speaking, it's finished at that point. Harvard describes the process as something akin to what happens in the pages of a pop-up book or in the creation of complex origami figures.

Graduate students Pratheev Sreetharan and Peter Whitney helped develop the manufacturing process. Sreetharan, who also designed the Mobee prototype, says the hard part was hand drawing the CAD files for each of the 18 layers the laser-milling device had to shape.

"For a device like Mobee, I would say I designed it in 2 1/2 weeks. That's actual design work," Sreetharan said. "Two-and-a-half months after that was literally drawing lines [for the CAD files]."

Before the development of this pop-up manufacturing concept, the Robobees team had built each individual creature painstakingly by hand. Only about 15 percent of the bees built this way worked properly. With the new technique, where robots are essentially building robots, based on a human design, the yield is in the range of 100 percent; perfection.

The beauty of the technique, besides precision and efficiency, is that it can integrate future elements of the project directly into the designs. So, when the sensor, control and power elements of the Robobee project are ready, they can be added as integral component layers of the bee structure, rather than as bolt-on additions to the design.

Before the fully functioning Robobee becomes a reality, however, Harvard hopes to take this manufacturing process into other arenas. They believe, among other things, that it could used today in the manufacture of articulated, electro-mechanical surgical instruments. The team is working with the Wyss Institute for Biologically Inspired Engineering to apply what they've learned with Mobee to the manufacture of instruments for laparoscopy and endoscopy.

Graduate student Whitney says their technique is a fit for these applications because if falls in a zone between the very small processes applied to computer chips and the larger processes found in traditional machine manufacturing.

"When you want to make a fully integrated device that's on the scale of 1 or 2 cm, it's not economical to scale up the computer-chip, integrated-circuit manufacturing technology; it's just too expensive," Whitney said. "On the other hand, trying to scale down traditional manufacturing, you're sort of in a Swiss-watch situation where you can make tiny components, but then you have to assemble them all together, and that's a tedious process; so we sort of live in between those two worlds."

The real question hanging in the air, so to say, is how the bees themselves might be used once they've been endowed with the power, sensor and control mechanisms needed to fly and operate on their own.

The obvious answer is surveillance of all types, whether it's for the military in combat or scientists tracking changes in the environment or spooks keeping tabs on their targets. Oh, and they might also be able to pollinate crops of vegetables and flowers, too.

We have a few years, at least, to figure out how how swarms of robotic insects might fit into our lives. The Robobees team is working along three tracks: body, brain and colony. Each one presents its own challenges. Integrating the three strands, which are being worked on in parallel, is a whole other set of hurdles.

Mobee is just one hurdle cleared. We'll have to wait and see two years from now if the swarm is really on the horizon, and a little longer to decide if we need to run from it.

The Public Domain Review: Giovanni Paolo Pannini, Eug?ne von Gu?rard, Rick Guidice (NASA), from books by Frederik Ruysch (uncertain of artist), Limbourg brothers (for Tr?s Riches Heures), Arnoldus Montanus, Harry Clarke

I?d like to talk (well OK, rant) for a minute about copyright and the principle of public domain.

?Public domain? is a term referring to works that have passed out of copyright, or have been deliberately assigned to the public domain on creation (for example when created for the U.S. government), and therefore now belong to the public, i.e. all of us.

This is an excellent idea and has been part of US copyright law from the beginning. Copyright laws vary, sometimes confusingly, by country, but I think most or all allow for works to pass into public ownership over time.

As a creator and copyright holder myself, I will be the first to say that copyright is basically a Good Thing, allowing legal protection for the creator of a work from unauthorized use and distribution of their creation for their lifetime ? and some years beyond. However, the U.S. Founding Fathers viewed ownership of intellectual property as a kind of monopoly, and felt that it should be limited for the good of the public.

The basic idea is that once the creator of a copyrighted work has died, and his or her heirs (who did not actually create the work) have had a sufficient time to profit off of their relative?s efforts, the work passes into the public domain and belongs to all of us ? to copy, rework, disseminate and create variations of to our hearts content, and much to the enrichment of the culture.

Some public domain characters, for example, would include Robin Hood, King Arthur, The Three Musketeers, Snow White, Jack and the Beanstalk, Alice in Wonderland, and so on. Think of all of the inventive variations and stories we have from just those few examples.

Most artwork from history is in the public domain (though photographs of the artwork can be copyrighted by the photographers who took them or institutions to whom copyright for photographs has been assigned).

The copyright/public domain balance is a pretty good arrangement ? the creator is protected for their lifetime, the relatives get to ride their coattails for a while, and then we all benefit from a richer public culture when ownership eventually passes to us.

Unfortunately, copyright laws that were originally meant to protect creators can be twisted into tools for advancing corporate power and greed, and the legislators who create and revise our laws seem easily manipulated by those with money and influence.

The large international media conglomerates (the same ones who have been trying to push the U.S. congress into ceding control of the internet to them with travesties of legislation like PIPA and SOPA), are also doing their best to defeat the original intention of the copyright laws, and keep pressuring legislators into extending the ?sufficient time? that copyright extends past the creator?s death, to protect and advance their corporate profits.

Originally ?life of the author plus 50 years?, the provision was extended to ?life of the author plus 70? years by the 1998 Copyright Extension Act, not coincidentally just before the copyright for Disney?s Mickey Mouse was due to move into the public domain. Many referred to it as the ?Mickey Mouse Protection Act?.

Those who are cynical about this process, myself included, assume that the time that copyright extends past the creator?s death will be extended again, not coincidentally before the profit making power of Mickey Mouse can be threatened with passing into public domain under the 70 year limit, with pressure applied to legislators by the same monied interests that extended it the first time (and it?s not just Disney that wants this, it?s all the big media conglomerates).

This would effectively mean that nothing that is not deliberately put into the public domain by its creator will ever again pass into ownership of the public, and that the principle of public domain as envisioned by the framers of the U.S. system of government has effectively been defeated.

There have even been a number of attempts by media corporations to claim ownership of public domain material, effectively stealing from us.

The history of the publishing, recording and other media industries is littered with cases of big companies stealing copyrights or copyrighted material from the original creators, or forcing them to give up their rights in order to be paid.

It?s another shameful example of wealth and power trumping the public good, and something that should always keep us wary of the intentions of these corporations (particularly when they?re promoting legislation to ?protect creators? ? cough cough).

That said, we still have an extensive backlog of material already in the public domain that we can share and enjoy; which, having had my little rant, brings me to the actual subject of the post, The Public Domain Review.

The internet (at least for the time being) is a cornucopia of public domain material; sites like Wikipedia, Wikimedia Commons, The Internet Archive, Project Gutenberg and hundreds of others offer a bounty of public domain material.

The Public Domain Review seeks to be a kind of curated guide to some of this material; its contributors offer articles on interesting finds and good sources of material. There is a page on the site about The Public Domain Review, that also talks about the principle of public domain.

There are sections for collections of topics, one of which is images. Though not yet extensive, as the site as just one year old, the collection is promising and will likely continue to grow. The selections are already nicely eclectic, as the examples above demonstrate.

Target one particular commercial property or alquiler vera at once. Irrespective of whether your real estate investment is an office, apartment complex, or undeveloped commercial land, it is important to concentrate your attempts on merely one investment. Learn more about all the distinct types of investment to make great decisions. Becoming a guru in one investment category is preferable to minimal success distribute across multiple investments.

Market commercial property both to local and also distant buyers. Many make a mistake in assuming that the only people who want to buy their commercial real estate property are those who are local customers. Some private investors will be interested in properties outside of their areas if the price is low.

Be sure that any property you are considering purchasing has access to all the resources you?ll need. The property ought to have access to water, sewer, electric and maybe gas for it to be a sensible commercial real estate purchase.

Be sure you know what your requirements are before you commence looking at commercial real estate. You should be aware of each aspect of your preferred office space. Perhaps you could acquire more than you need right now if you can afford to and you plan on expanding your business.

As you have seen, commercial real estate can be an extremely beneficial investment. Success or failure rests squarely on your shoulders so do your research. Not every single single individual will be profitable, but if you follow the above tips, your chances of success will be enormously improved.

There's literally no app for this: KIRF iPhone-branded gas stoves seized by Chinese authorities

Ordinarily, if you use your iPhone to fry eggs, it's time to check when your warranty expires. Not so for these KIRF iPhones, which can't make calls or download apps (let alone use Siri) but can fry your bacon rather well. 681 of these bafflingly branded gas stoves were seized by police in Wuhan, each bearing the legend "Apple China Limited." Apparently the units did not come with flame-out protection and only ran iOS 4.1, leading to the swoop. We should probably take that as solid confirmation that the iPhone 6's killer feature is going to involve making brunch on the go.

Tattoo Supplies You Would Like To Have An Incredible Tattoo Job ...

?

Tattoos are viewed as the oldest kind of art work. Up until now, many people see tattoos to provide a creative style of self expression. However, there are a few who still don?t concur with it?s desired purpose a result of the negative aspect connected with tattoos, lots of young people and grownups as well still take pleasure in it.

Getting a tattoo is actually a choice only an individual can choose for him or her self. It normally entails not only second thoughts considering that tattoos are intended to be everlasting. Once you get one, it is impossible to get rid of it anymore. So prior to walking into a tattoo shop to ask an artist to provide you one, think of various components first.

Discuss with tattoo artists to inquire about questions you may have. You might like to know the way the process works and exactly how long a specific design will last. When you have sensitive skin for example, you may want to find out about the sort of tattoo supplies a certain artist makes use of. Although almost all tattoo inks are hypoallergenic, it is still best to be certain you don?t get an allergic reaction once you elect to get one.

Find out about the sort of tattoo products they make use of, how they?re stored and sterilized and look around the shop to obtain your first impression. Tattoo supplies that are of superior quality could decrease or even, remove your fears about the safe practices of tattooing.

On the contrary, tattoo apparatus that appears to be worn-out and unsafe would definitely turn you off the thought of getting a tattoo. It goes exactly the same with the shop you opt to get a tattoo; a tattoo shop that looks untidy and unappealing would give you a feeling of insecurity.

One more thing you must think about is the pain connected with piercing your skin. There are actually certain regions of the human body that have considerably less nerve endings that cause a person to feel pain. In case your pain tolerance isn?t that high, you may think of having a smaller size tattoo in areas where you will feel less pain.

Getting a tattoo would likewise entail a number of constraints on your end so be sure you are completely conscious of the restraints of having a tattoo. For instance, there are particular medical procedures you aren?t permitted to go through once you?ve chosen to get a tattoo.

When searching for a job, most companies and employers don?t allow obvious tattoos. More frequently than not, they have policies concerning tattoos and various other types of body art.

Eco-Friendly House Removals - The Central Florida Real Estate Site

The environmental movements has moved far past the actual fringe?Many people are at least conscious of standard eco-friendly initiatives like reduce-reuse-recycle, and a lot of people do the greatest to tread lightly upon the earth within a quantity of approaches. But in relation to relocating, few individuals stop and take into consideration how you can relocate their home (or business) in a manner that reduces environmental affect. Below really are a few ideas to assist you to with eco-friendly relocating:

Before you begin packing, consider a superb take a look at all your things. Do you genuinely want all of that things? Everything that you just never make use of, do not like or merely plain do not need anymore does not have earned to get any kind of energy expended on it for relocation. Market these things if you can, or give them away to pals, family members or perhaps a nearby charity. Whatever you are doing, do not move your unwanted objects prior to disposing of them?that is actually wasteful!

Right after you have cut down your belongings to those who you definitely should relocate, you are going to have to pack them. You can almost certainly receive quite a few relocating containers secondhand from local businesses, simply be sure that they?re cleanse and tough, and have lids or even flaps which shut to keep your possessions securely inside of. Some shifting organizations offer extremely eco-friendly reusable plastic-type containers or let you return cardboard shifting containers that you just purchased from them for the refund (so long as they may be in great issue to ensure they could reuse them). Request your movers what they do with relocating bins which are no longer usable ? an environmentally aware relocating business can make the effort to recycle, alternatively than trash their unusable relocating containers.

Of course it truly is unavoidable that moving needs a particular expenditure of electricity and utilization of resources, it?s inescapable. But if you will need to shift, you will need to move? you must purpose to use as small power as you possibly can and use recyclable components every time feasible to reduce your environmental influence.

Performance is essential, regardless of whether you are going locally or long length. You will probably use a lot more gas relocating your possessions having a fleet of pickup trucks really going back and forth many instances among the aged property as well as your new home than you may in the event you retain the services of a shifting truck to ship it all at the same time. A trustworthy moving company will preserve their trucks at peak efficiency, virtually definitely performing greater on power usage and air pollution, particularly on the extended length transfer, than a multi-trip relocation.

House removals can be very easy when you make use of a removal van .

What is the difference between Oncology and Hemato | Bull

Hematology and oncology are two distinctive branches of medical science that focus on places that frequently overlap each other. How this can be so will call for an explanation of each hematology and oncology as separate research.

Hematology

As an independent field of study, hematology specifically offers using the blood and blood forming organs, too as disorders that affect these locations with the human physique. It?s actually a branch of internal medicine with many internists utilizing the hematology field as a form of subspecialty.

The internist specializing in hematology, or merely the hematologist, concerns himself with blood-related conditions, ranging from the widespread iron deficiency anemia to cancers originating in the blood, to rare forms of abnormal blood coagulation.

So as to diagnose an individual, the hematologist utilizes a range of test techniques, most typical of which can be the blood test, itself composed of different approaches to obtaining blood test outcomes.

Oncology

Oncology would be the study of distinctive malignancies or cancers. These cancers might take place in any portion in the body, presenting itself as an abnormal growth of cells ? a result of an abnormal chromosome which can be in turn a result of either harm or possibly a genetic alter.

The damage causes the cell to develop rapidly and start to multiply until it types a lump or perhaps a tumor. The tumor is usually either malignant or benign. If benign, tumors might be left alone given that they don?t invade other cells. Nonetheless, if the tumors are malignant, these tumor cells may perhaps spread to other websites by shedding off and flowing by means of the bloodstream and start out other growth. When cancer spreads, the approach is called metastasis.

Oncology issues itself with the diagnosis and treatment of all types of cancers ? breast, prostate, colon, lung, ovarian, brain tumors, leukemia, lymphoma, among other people. Considering that some cancers involve the blood, the connection among hematology and oncology is established that way.

Oncology and Hematology ? Therapy and Methodology

Hematology and oncology specialists frequently uncover that they?ve to perform hand in hand if the case involves any with the cancer varieties that impact the blood. Following the hematologists conduct blood tests and obtains accurate diagnosis in the blood cancer, the oncologists will start treatment.

Treatment procedures may consist of chemotherapy, radiotherapy, surgery, bone marrow transplants, stem cell transplants, and other specialized procedures.

The most typical illness that specialist in hematology and oncology will normally face is leukemia, which is a condition wherein the amount of white blood cells overwhelmingly offsets the levels of red blood cells in the blood. The illness can frequently be traced to an autoimmune defense malfunction wherein the white blood cells (lymphocytes) mistake red blood cells as foreign bodies and go on to destroy them.

For leukemia, the goal of hematology and oncology specialists is remission. This signifies that just about every step has to be taken so that you can return the individual to a somewhat much more regular white blood cell count. best diet plan

Chicago sheriff: Mental health cuts mean more prisoners

By msnbc.com news services

Members of the Cook County Sheriff's Department walk out of the Cook County Jail Tuesday in February 2006 in Chicago.

?

Chicago?s Cook County Jail, a harsh holding cell stuffed with up to 11,000 prisoners at any given time, is about to become even more crowded, according to The Chicago News Cooperative.

Tom Dart, The Cook County Sheriff, told The Chicago News Cooperative on Monday that of those 11,000 prisoners, about 2,000 have some form of serious mental illness. But he fears the situation could get much worse: Chicago has plans to shutter half of its 12 city-run mental health centers by the end of April in a bid to save $2 million, and that could leave many mentally ill patients without the treatment they need.

?It will definitely have a negative impact on jail populations,? Dart told The Chicago News Cooperative. ?It will have direct consequences for us in my general jail population and some of the problems I have here, because a lot of the people with these issues act out more, as you would expect, so that?s a direct consequence.?

Without resources to treat them, those with mental health issues are more likely to have run-ins with the police, reported The Chicago News Cooperative.

?It?s going to increase the number of calls they get,? Amy Watson, associate professor at the Jane Addams College of Social Work at the University of Illinois, Chicago, said of the Chicago Police Department, ?because it is the only place left to call.?

It costs about $143 per day to house a typical detainee at Cook County Jail, the media organization reported. To house a detainee with mental health issues costs two to three times as much, the sheriff said.

4 Communication Pitfalls in Relationships ? and How to Fix Them ...

Posted by on February 20, 2012

Posted by The Hand on February 19, 2012 in Relationships |

No relationship is perfect. We all know this. We?re not perfect and therefore our relationships will never be perfect either.

That?s okay. That?s normal.

But success in relationships ? romantic and otherwise ? have a lot to do with proper communication. In fact, most relationship problems are caused by poor communication.

Here are the top communication issues in romantic relationships and how to work through them:

The Problem:?Misunderstanding words and actions. It?s really easy to misinterpret your partner?s words, emails, gestures, and actions to mean something other than what he or she intended. We?re all human ? it happens.

The Solution: Don?t immediately jump to conclusions. Instead of assuming you know what the other is thinking, ask for clarification. Continue asking for clarification until you understand what your partner is really saying.

The Problem:?You don?t talk enough. In a long-term relationship, most of us eventually hit a point where we feel we don?t communicate much any more. We don?t hang out. We have our routines (wake up, shower, dress, go to work, come home), and most don?t involve the other person as much as they should.

The Solution: There?s a simple fix for not communicating enough:?recognizing that you?re no longer communicating like you once did and talking more.?Create some alone time to carve out for just the two of you.

The Problem: You?re avoiding certain topics with your partner. Perhaps this is the reason that you?re not talking to one another anymore. Maybe you?re upset with your partner. Either way, you don?t feel like discussing it, so instead, you clam up and say nothing. Your walls go up as a way of avoiding the issue.

The Solution: You?re not benefiting your relationship in any way by avoiding problems. Instead of retreating and putting up big walls, take a long hard look at the issues and face them together. This way, you can work together to come up with a solution.

The Problem: You need to be right. We?ve all had those times when we couldn?t back down from an argument. We?re right, we know it, and we have to prove it. So we pick a fight (or continue to beat a dead horse) until we feel we?ve won.

The Solution: Being right isn?t as important as having open lines of communication. Being willing to see things from another point of view may not change how you feel, but it does give you the incredible opportunity to learn.

What other advice do you have about communication issues in relationships?

New amphibious truck targeted to first responders

The Humdinga can transition between land and water within a few seconds.

By Bryan Laviolette, The Detroit Bureau

After more than a decade of false starts, Gibbs Technologies launched a high-speed amphibian that it says will change the way rescue crews respond in disaster situations.

With the dramatic backdrop of the Pentagon on one side and the Washington Monument just across the Potomac River, Gibbs recently gave a demonstration of Phibian, a 30-foot amphitruck, which will be road legal and capable of more than 80 mph on the highway and 30 mph in water. Like Gibbs? other amphibians, the Phibian can transition between land and water in as little as 5 seconds.

?Natural disasters in recent memory, such as the earthquake and tsunamis in Japan, Thailand, Sri Lanka and elsewhere in Asia;? as well as the devastation of Hurricane Katrina in New Orleans, illustrate the need for amphibians as capable, versatile and efficient as Phibian,? Gibbs Chairman Neil Jenkins said.

Gibbs is now taking orders for the Phibian, although no price was announced. It plans to begin delivering vehicles in 9 to 15 months.

In addition to the Phibian, Gibbs also announced that it would take orders for another vehicle, the Humdinga II, a 20-foot amphibian that is capable of reaching the most extreme and remote territory. Gibbs did not have the Humdinga on hand for the demonstration.

?

Gibbs Technologies

The Gibbs Phibian skims across the water on the Potomac River. The vehicle will be road legal and capable of more than 80 mph on the highway and 30 mph in water.

The Phibian prototype features twin 250-horsepowerSteyr marine diesel engines. It features four-wheel drive, but front-wheel drive or rear-wheel drive can also be selected depending on conditions. In water, it is propelled by twin water jets.

The military has show interest in Gibbs? amphibians. Technology for beach landing crafts hasn?t changed since World War II, Jenkins said.??

Detroit Bureau: Is same supplier behind Toyota, GM door fires??

?While Gibbs has not given specific locations where its products will be built, Jenkins did say that the Phibian would be built in the U.S. It has narrowed its choices for an assembly plant to Michigan, Texas, Florida and the Carolinas. The Humdinga will be built in the United Kingdom where the company is based. Gibbs? primary research and development office and U.S. headquarters in Auburn Hills, Mich.

The company plans to announce a production location for the Phibian with the next several weeks.

The Phibian is a true multi-continent effort. Jenkins said it was conceived in the U.S., engineered in New Zealand and will be manufactured in the U.S. with some materials supplied out of the U.K.

Gibbs Technologies

When entering the water, the operator pushes a button preparing the amphibian for water entry. Once the vehicle determines that it has enough water depth to float, it raises the wheels and its ready to go on plane.

Gibbs gave demonstration rides on the Phibian to the media and dignitaries including the New Zealand ambassador to the U.S. and attorneys who are helping it obtain regulatory approval for its amphibians. Jenkins said that the U.S. Coast Guard and Environmental Protection Agency have approved the Phibian and the company expects approval from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration within 6 months.

The Phibian?s introduction was timed to precede the annual conference of the American Society of Naval Engineers, which was also last week. Gibbs officials were scheduled for meetings about its vehicles in connection with the conference.??

Detroit Bureau: Tesla reveals new Model X crossover

The announcement of the Phibian came as a bit of a surprise because the company is also working on the planned launch of the Quadski amphibian, which is a single-seat cross between an all-terrain vehicle and a personal watercraft. The Quadski is capable of 45 mph on land and water. Gibbs has said that the often-delayed Quadski would go into limited production this summer.

Gibbs said that the Quadski would be the first model produced by a new division it is calling Sport Amphibians.

Gibbs Technologies

The Gibbs Humdinga is 21.5 feet and is designed to extremely difficult and remote terrain,

The company also had one of its Aquada amphibious sports cars at the Phibian launch. That project is stuck on the back burner as Gibbs works to secure regulatory approval for it. Jenkins said approval for the Phibian and Humdinga was a little easier because they are classified as light-duty trucks rather than a passenger car, like the Aquada.

While the Phibian is targeted at first responders such as rescue crews and fire departments, Jenkins said it will be available for sale to the general public. The prototype shown in Arlington had what Gibbs calls a quarter cab, with seating for three people, but it can be ordered with no cab, half cab or full cab. The prototype?s deck has attachment points for a versatile range of uses.???

Detroit Bureau: Images of updated Lexus RX leak out

Jenkins said the hull and superstructure of the Phibian are carbon fiber. It weighs 4,500 pounds and has a payload capacity of 3,307 pounds. See below for full specifications.

Like the rest of its products, the Phibian uses proprietary technology that allows it to seamlessly transition between land and water. The primary technology is a system that decouples the drive axles and allows the wheels to pivot into the wheel wells. Raising the wheels out of the water enables Gibbs? amphibians to reach plane in the water.??

The company has spent 15 years and 2 million man hours developing the HSA technology, investing $200 million into the project. The company was founded by New Zealander Alan Gibbs. Gibbs has largely funded the project on his own.

Interest Check: Unicorns and forests

[unable to retrieve full-text content]Hello, My name is spirit and I'm looking forward to starting a new roleplay. One with adventure, fantasy, romance, and drama. I have afew ideas for roleplays. Any of these can be tweaked and fixed. Are any of these of interest to you?The first one deals with a unicorn. We are trying to save a unicorn we found in a forest that has been captured by a powerful sorcerer. The group will gather for their own reasons, and we will go on a journey to save the unicorn from this sorcerer. There can be side romance, there will be adventure, and there will be drama. I would prefer we have atleast one female character in the party, so this female character can be the maiden which the unicorn will embrace (Like in the tales, the unicorns bow their heads to pure maidens, etc. )Another roleplay deals with a forest again as well. I've been rethinking about opening up the "Medieval Fantasy Roleplay" again but this time changing the story and making it more friendly for players. The story goes like this: There is a myth that a forest harbors a great treasure, but it is only a tale in legends. Those who have come to the forest have not come back. Creatures guard the forest treasure, or source of magic within the forest. The roleplay will not be epic. Afew rules that must be said though:1) NO God modding2) NO hogging the lime light, any one. 3) If you're part of a party, do not ignore players in your party. It's very rude. If your character doesn't like someone, say so but state why.4) When there's too many people, things go wrong. In the last major roleplay I GMed, we attempted to split the party into 2 groups because there were so many people. This time however, I'm only allowing a certain amount of people to join. The max I'm allowing to join is 6-8.5) The story must flow and be in sync with everyone6) I COME up with the treasure. Well, with a consenus on everyone's part, I lastly choose what the treasure will be.Any questions or concerns? Go ahead and ask, and I'll answer. :)

Auto Body Training - Great DVD Course | Pete Benevides Reviews

I recently decided that I needed auto body training. This was due to two facts. The first being I wanted to fix the small scratches that my car has accumulated. The second is that I felt it would be wise to know more about cars in general as I will likely be driving them for the rest of my life. I did some web browsing only to find that most people got their training at professional trade schools or technical colleges. I also noticed that these schools cost as much as going to an actual university. Luckily, I came upon the website learnautobnodyandpaint.com. There I found an excellent DVD and eBook course that enabled me to become an auto body pro.

For example, the course educated me in the same auto painting strategies that one could learn at an automotive trade school. I was able to quickly learn the art of blending following the DVD course. This is important since blending is one of the most used skills. Since many people use base coat/clear coat paint systems, blending has done away with the requirement for panel painting. This renders car painting much simpler for novices like myself to execute. I was also shown how to accurately feather paint.

The course?s auto body training also shows you regarding the different types of paint widely available to buy. There are urethane, acrylic lacquer, and acrylic enamel. If you?re acting on a new or late model car, then you will be having urethane. If you are restoring an old car or repairing a classic, then an acrylic is exactly what you?ll need. Make sure to just use one type of paint on your own project. As an example, you don?t wish to begin with an acrylic lacquer and halfway start employing acrylic enamel. If you are doubtful which type of paint to apply, do not hesitate to ask an auto body store clerk as they will frequently know exactly the things you need.

Also, I was also able to post questions to the author of the course. He was then able to respond answers in an e-mail or in his blog. I seen this extremely helpful. With buying the course I was provided a lifetime membership to learnautobodyandpaint.com and access to updates. This was also helpful since the automotive painting realm is constantly being innovated upon.

Now that you know my story you may decide that you will need some auto body training. I would endorse at least thinking about learnautobodyandpaint.com even though you wouldn?t like to purchase the DVD course. The site features plenty of information about painting cars and a free blog on the subject.

Learn more about auto body training. Stop by Tony Bandalos?s site www.learnautobodyandpaint.com where you can find out all about auto body and paint and what it can do for your auto body and paint.
