Exploding pipe bombs.
Land fields that can take your arms off.
Driving off road, and frenzied, with excitement
Oh, yes, Syrian Teenagers,
It is “Let’s See If We Are Really Alive” day.
Okay, we’ll let in some Africans too, but
Only if they are wearing hoodies.
The Mexicans want to join us?
Okay, but you have to climb the T-Wall first,
As a little joke, to amuse the Donald.
Yes, it is happy MIND Field Day in America!
We got tweeted the details last night.
It’s like Hunger game Day, and Grab the Poppies Day.
HAHAHAHA Why would I use the other word?
I’m not the misogynist racist tweet-stupid chicken bully!
I’m not even allowed to say “You’re fired.”
So, today in the land of “Let’s see if you’re alive
We have a side game called “Let’s go after Syria
So the Congressmen and Senators
Who only want to keep their jobs at all of
And possibly the expense of the
Social security fund which they
Have decided to STEAL from us….
The Congressmen and the Senators
Who are also learning how to tweet
And be stupid declared today
“I won’t have to show my taxes or
Pay a vendor day, and the little guy
Can play in the exploding pipe bomb field
Because it keeps the adrenaline pumping,
And we want to see if they are really alive.”
Hey, I’m in!
I am the first in line.
I want to take my jalopy and drive recklessly
Across the mind field. I really really do!
Some younger women are behind me, laughing
Because they think not only am I invisible, but
I cannot hear them.
I can hear you making fun of me I tell them,
In my mind because I’m polite and socialized and
I’m so excited about the races and the thrill of almost
Being killed minute by minute with the stuff they are going to
Catapult in – toilets, old refrigerators, Russian foot soldiers, etc.
That I can BARELY think straight.
“Excuse me, ma’am,” the handsome door man says.
He excuses me and a bunch of excited young men
And Bernie Sanders and a mask-wearing Bette Midler,
And we all stare at each other in anger as all of the young
Available beautiful WHITE ladies are ushered in.
All of a sudden I realize all the beautiful young gorgeous
Brown ladies are still out here with us and I start screaming
And shouting and tearing it up.
Bette and Bernie understand immediately. The three of
Us lead the fray, and we become a mighty mob and
We are yelling and screaming and demanding our
Turn until we look in the glass T-tower walls and
See the mayham that is taking place. Young beautiful
White women are being killed and maimed with pipe
Bombs, and three-headed dogs are ripping their legs off
And stuff. There is blood and screaming and gruesome
Real tearing them up over there. The others are watching
In horrified fascination, and I can watch no more.
I turn away and begin to cry.
I cry that America has become so corrupt
That a misogynist chicken-bully who professes
To be a rapist could have been elected to office
In our country.
I cry that we have elected a President who
Did not pay any of the little guys when they worked
For him – the plumbers, the electricians, the tile layers, the air conditioning men.
I cry that the only ones who thought they
Were admitted to the T-arena to participate
In “Let’s See if They Are Alive Day” were young
White women, not those of us in hoodies, or those
Of us from Africa, or the Irish, or any of the young men.
I guess it makes sense.
Because the ones whose vote counts now are the
Hillbillies, and the trailer trash, and the glued-to-the-Fox
REAL news channel people,
The ones who get
Angry if we want to
Abolish the electoral
College, because we would like a vote too.
Please ignore all of this; I don't do politics
in Kansas, where only the elitist Republican's
I am learning.

Link original: Elza Soares – Elza Soares (1973)
Publicado em: Sunday, September 07, 2008 by zecalouro
Hello, good evening! One of my dreams is to access the Internet at a reasonable speed through a mobile phone. Just to support some quick decisions I have to make when I’m not home, such like this one I will tell you. I found this album today at Copacabana by one of those prices that nobody believes. All I had with me was this fantastic cover, very similar, actually, the same cover used by EMI Odeon on a Elza Soares box set released in 2003.
A complimentary information was the release year, 1973. I had no choice besides taking R$ 3 Reais from my pocket and take it home, where I discovered this is an Elza Soares career album never released before at Loronix. I have this album, but never considered for Loronix because of this cover, showing Elza Soares a little frightening and dark, exactly the opposite of what we have right now with this Odeon Coronado reissue, where Elza is only joy and happiness. Let’s see.
This is Elza Soares – Aquarela Brasileira (1973), for Odeon, which is the last album recorded by Elza Soares at Odeon, her record company since the first album released in 1960. Musicians in this session were not credited by Odeon and I had little time to do a search and retrieve additional info. But who cares about that? This is Elza Soares, never released at Loronix. Tracks include:
01 – Aquarela Brasileira (Silas de Oliveira)
02 – Busto Calado (Rubens da Silva / Orlando Costa ”Maestro Cipó”)
03 – Pranto de Poeta (Nelson Cavaquinho / Guilherme de Brito)
04 – Dia de Graça (Candeia)
05 – Maria José (Fritz / Nereu Gargalo)
06 – Zelão (Sergio Ricardo)
07 – Canoa Furada (Gisa Nogueira)
08 – Solidão (Luis Roberto / Paulo Martini)
09 – Sete Linhas (Sidney da Conceição)
10 – Festa da Vinda (Cartola / Nuno Veloso)
11 – Lá Vou Eu (Delcio Carvalho)
12 – Eu Não Toco Berimbau (Serrinha / Mazola)
Este disco está disponível no Um que Tenha, fazendo parte do vol. 9 do Box Negra, em conjunto com o disco da Elza de 1974.

Cities in FRANCE
Popular destinations FRANCE
France is the world's leading holiday destination in terms of visitor numbers, followed by the United States and Spain.
Tourist activities are very unevenly distributed across French territory. Half of the jobs are concentrated in three regions: Ile-de-France, Rhône-Alpes and Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur. The most visited attractions are Disneyland Paris (12 million visitors), the Eiffel Tower (6 million), the Louvre (6 million) and the Center Pompidou (5 million).

Government and business are trying to redistribute the tourist flow over regions in a more balanced way and spread it over the whole year. For example, "green" tourism (including camping on a farm) and new forms of tourism such as city tourism and thematic travel will be more developed.
Throughout France you can admire the remains of the country's rich history, which dates back to prehistoric times. About 15,000 BC. the earliest inhabitants of the country lived in the south of France. They lived in caves and painted wall paintings at Lascaux that became world famous. In Brittany, around 1500 BC. erected monuments consisting of gigantic stones called dolmens or menhirs.

In 51 BC. Under the leadership of Julius Caesar, the Romans conquered what is now France, then called Gaul and for centuries it was a Roman province. Especially in the southeast of France there are still amphitheaters in cities such as Arles, Orange and Nîmes.
Romanesque architecture emerged in the 12th century. Monasteries and churches were built on the model of Roman basilicas. From this developed Gothic architecture, which would spread all over Europe from France. There are about 60 Gothic cathedrals in France, richly decorated with sculptures and stained glass windows. The most famous cathedrals are in Amiens, Reims, Paris (Notre Dame), Chartres and Beauvais.
Around 1500 French art came under the influence of the Italian Renaissance. Classical antiquity became a source of inspiration. Many castles were built along the Loire during this period. Later, the Louvre arose in Paris, which has long been the palace of the French kings.
The 17th century was the heyday of French art. The style of that time is called classicism. In Versailles, famous architects, painters and sculptors worked on the palace, which attracts hundreds of thousands of visitors every year. King Louis XIV had a hospital built in Paris for wounded soldiers, the Hôtel des Invalides, where Napoleon Bonaparte is buried. It is considered the masterpiece of the classicist period.

In the second half of the 18th century, the Panthéon was built in Paris. At first it served as a church, later it became a resting place for famous French such as Victor Hugo, Voltaire, Jean-Jacques Rousseau and Emile Zola.
When the World's Fair was held in Paris in 1889, engineer Eiffel designed a 300-meter-high iron tower, which later became known as the Eiffel Tower, especially for the occasion. This building still dominates the image of Paris and attracts millions of visitors every year.
In the 20th century, French architecture has developed into one of the most prominent in the world. For example, the buildings of Le Corbusier can be found in many countries. An example of his style is the pilgrimage church Notre-Dame-du-Haut in Ronchamp from 1955. Many buildings typical of this century have been built in Paris, such as the Center Pompidou, which houses all kinds of cultural institutions. Below is a brief description of some interesting French cities.

Paris is overflowing with sights. There are of course well-known blockbusters such as the Eiffel Tower, the Champs Élysées, Notre Dame and the Louvre. But there are also a number of less known, yet special places to visit. Le Marais is highly recommended. Le Marais has recently become one of the hippest districts in Paris. You could assume that it is actually a shame that it is now referred to in all books as the hippest district in Paris, as recently (especially in the summer months) Le Marais has been overrun by tourists. Many are afraid that this will cause the neighborhood to lose its authenticity.
So get to Le Marais before it's too late. Le Marais is a unique amalgamation of a gay area and a Jewish quarter. In this neighborhood you will find nice, hip shops and delicious (often kosher) restaurants, bakeries and delicatessen shops. You can also eat the tastiest falafel in all of France at L'as du Fallafel in the Rue des Rosiers (the Jewish street of Paris).

Your class 10 scores determine the stream you may choose for the next two years and in most cases form the foundation for your career. What if you don’t perform well? In what other way can you pursue the choice of your subject? Read on to get more insights.
There is no denying that the scores in Class X Board exam act as a reasonably reliable indicator of a student’s overall academic performance. Of late, many prestigious colleges and universities are assigning separate points to Class 10 marks when it comes to granting admissions. Hence, the class 10 result can be deemed as a career shaper and a game changer in most students’ lives.
However, the course of one’s life is determined by lot more than mere marks. One doesn’t need an immaculate mark-sheet to be adventurous, courageous, passionate or successful. Life has its own ways of making things work and one three-hour exam should hardly influence the bigger picture.
Importance of Class 10
Why then is the examination considered so important? In Class 10, children tend to be at the cusp of early adulthood. Marks scored in the Board examination let them choose the stream of subject to specialise in Classes 11 and 12. Paul Machado, Principal of Campion School, Cooperage Road Fort, Mumbai, says “By creating a little bit of noise about the Class 10 grades, what we essentially do as parents and educators is to try and prepare them for myriad things—first and foremost is the discipline to study in an organized and conscientious manner. This also teaches them to deal with the pressures that will come later, almost like a window to the adult world where they need to adjust to bigger challenges.”
Fear of parents and teachers
More often than not, parents fear that their children will not do well in life if they do not score well in Class 10. Nishi Mishra, Principal of Scindia Kanya Vidyalaya, Gwalior, shares, “The Indian education system is such that the pressure and stress on the children will always be there, not just during Class 10 Boards but any kind of exams because our children’s threshold of accepting low marks has gone down. The pressures have certainly increased. Somewhere, the counselling of parents is also required.”
Jaswinder Juneja, a mother of a child currently in class 10, says, “I sometimes wonder, why do the children undergo depression just for the sake of one or two marks. It’s not a right practice. I feel the grading system is much better.”
Why low scores?
Many a time, children are seen hooked to textbooks all day, far removed from social life. “Yes, the studies are stressful in a way as the syllabus is enormous. I used to be one of the best students of the class till last year. On reaching class 10, my scores started falling terribly. To cope with this, I now study for around 3-4 hours a day with full concentration and use my computer as a medium of relieving stress,” says Jasraj Juneja, son of Jaswinder and a student of Class 10 in Vishwa Bharti Public School, Noida. “If they don’t fall for the hype and work regularly, there is no question of undue pressure,” adds Machado.
Small setbacks like getting a low score in Class 10 are mere blips over the course of one’s life, and the earlier they happen the better it is as they will be less damaging. “I don’t see a Class 10 score serving any purpose except for the fact that students will get the option of selecting a stream of their choice. If a child is not able to get his stream of choice due to low scores, there are options of studying privately along with the option of going in for distance learning or open schools,” says Mishra.
“And it’s not as if any school will not give admission to a child with low marks. There are schools which may not be very high profile but those schools would certainly be admitting these children. Settling with commerce or humanities is entirely dependent on the child’s aspiration,” adds Mishra. Thus, students have an option of studying their choice of subject privately along with formal schooling. Parents can opt for taking remedial measures by consulting a counsellor.
Everything doesn’t turn out the way one always wants, and so it is always good to have a plan B in hand. Same is the case with Class 10. The scores one obtains in Class 10 or in any other classes is not a judgement on the capabilities of a person. One must have the will to be able to do what they want to do irrespective of the obstacles that come in one’s path.

just started getting into this. seems to be an alright intro.
Outside the NI user forum, reaktor support all seems to come from a long time ago, and those user forum guys will bombard you with a lot of depth at in response to very simple questions… but I have a feeling that the latest changes (as in v5.5) are gonna bring out a new wave of people interested in community.
I am seriously seeing such a huge amount of potential, and it’s a very unique software.
Also, I was reading on ways to get more hits on a blog, and I decided to avoid those measures; don’t know why. Just still feel like this is all too unfocused to deserve hits.
Also, over at golden master, theres a good ensemble to learn from.

You may have heard there is plenty of money in the market for real estate acquisitions. Of course, like any other urban legend the facts are a difficult thing to come by as the lens becomes more focused.
Like politics real estate is local. So, local to New York City there is a significant amount of money and property assets moving around. The same is true for most job center cities. Yet as we begin to delineate at the transaction level the size and scope of deals that are trading reflect a reality that at the top and bottom of the food chain deals are moving much faster than those in the middle.
According to an article in NREI there were $4.1 Billion dollars in 1031 exchanges in 2007 (http://nreionline.com/commentary/1031-exchanges-gain-traction-lending-activity-increases). In 2010 that number was $1 Billion dollars. While it has inched up since, it is nowhere near pre-recession peak volume.
The United States has an improving economy, a stable housing market (as compared to 2009-2011) yet small commercial multifamily transaction volume (those deals under $5M dollars) is abruptly lower than many expect given that stabilizing operations are the rule of the day. Why? It’s almost a circular reference; 1031 tax exchanges drive a HUGE percentage of these transactions. Lower 1031 activity equals lower overall activity.
In the best of times 1031 exchanges in certain markets could account for as much as 30% of property trades. With tighter bank financing and lower capital gains rates 1031 money is less of a factor in overall property sales volume. But don’t count it out. Every billion dollars that 1031’s account for is a billion dollars in transactions that may not have occurred otherwise.
Watch the 1031 volume in your local marketplace as a marker of sales activity. Regardless of which side of the trade you are on its good to know if this tool in your toolbox is readily in use.

ANCHORAGE -- A group of Russians is promoting an international park that would span the Bering Strait.
Russian officials unveiled their idea during a visit to Anchorage last week.
The first step toward an international park would be to set up a federal park in the Russian Far East territory of Chukotka. Vladimir Etylin, Chukotka's representative in the Russian parliament, said Russian officials are now actively working to create such a park.
"We are now working to push that agreement, but we all understand that's not a speedy process," Etylin said during the National Park Service's Beringia Days Conference in Anchorage.
Etylin said it would take at least two years for a federal park to be established in Chukotka, across the Bering Strait from Alaska.
If and when Russia establishes a federal park in Chukotka, Russia and the United States could then begin to discuss an international park for the Beringia region. Beringia refers to parts of northern Siberia, Alaska and Canada.
"We're encouraged by the Russian interest," Park Service spokesman John Quinley told the Anchorage Daily News. "We're still interested in an international park but there's nothing on the table yet."
Most likely, the international park would consist of a new federal park on the Chukotka Peninsula, proposed to be about 7.4 million acres. Also included in the plan are four existing conservation units in Alaska: the Bering Land Bridge Preserve, Cape Krusenstern National Monument, Kobuk Valley National Park and Noatak National Preserve.
No new land in Alaska and no marine waters would be designated for the park, Quinley said.
The United States and Russia first agreed to work cooperatively on an international park in 1990 but the idea soon stalled. Political opposition arose in Alaska, and then Chukotka's former governor, Alexander Nazarov, shut down negotiations.

10 Strategies and Tips for Long-Distance Caregiving
Long-distance caregiving can be a strenuous and sometimes heart-wrenching situation for family members and their senior loved ones. Adult children who reside in another state—or even a different country—may struggle to provide proper care for an elderly parent while managing travel time and expenses as well as work and family commitments. It can be a draining experience for everyone involved.
In fact, research shows that long-distance caregivers are significantly more likely to report emotional distress than caregivers who live closer to their care recipients.
But long-distance caregiving doesn’t have to be so difficult. Non-medical home care services can assist senior loved ones with daily tasks and activities, while also giving long-distance family caregivers the peace of mind that comes with knowing that a trusted professional is close at hand to help.
How Can Long-Distance Family Caregivers Be Most Effective?
If you are a long-distance family caregiver, here are 10 tips and strategies to help you effectively partner with relatives–and an in-home caregiver–to provide the help your loved one and family members need:
- Discuss caregiving responsibilities
Take time to meet with other family members and non-medical in-home caregivers to talk about your loved one’s caregiving needs. Recognize and share what you can offer, but don’t be afraid to discuss your limitations. Find ways to complement each other’s strengths and agree ahead of time who will be responsible for which tasks.
- Recognize when in-home care is needed
Long-distance family caregivers can have difficulty recognizing when a parent needs in-home care. Be aware of changes in your parent or loved one’s behavior. Tell-tale signs that professional in-home care is needed may include forgetting to take medications, no longer socializing regularly, or not properly caring for themselves.
- Ask how you can be most helpful
Speak with your loved one’s professional caregiver and ask what you can do to help in the caring process and obligations. A team effort is always a good approach.
- Have contacts who can keep you informed
Ask friends and neighbors to check in on your senior loved one regularly to make sure everything is okay.
- Know the signs of elder abuse
As a long-distance caregiver, knowing the signs of elder abuse can help you keep your loved one safe. Superior at-home care from a qualified professional, like Visiting Angels, will go a long way toward preventing elder abuse. But you should always watch for signs such as mood changes, different spending or banking habits, increased isolation, unexplained injury, disheveled appearance, bed sores or similar preventable conditions.
- Provide respite care for the primary family caregiver
If you live an extremely long distance, you won’t be available to help your loved one around the house regularly. However, a few days of respite care when your schedule allows can help you be more aware of your loved one’s needs and give you a much-needed break.
- Evaluate your loved one’s living space
Take time to determine if your parent or loved one’s living space is appropriate for their needs and condition. By working closely with a homecare professional and other family caregivers, you can help your loved one stay safe and avoid falls at home. If your loved one’s living space is not suitable, work to improve it or find a new housing arrangement that would benefit them. Visiting Angels provides a complete home care assessment at your loved one’s residence.
- Make the most out of your visits
When you live far away from your senior parent or loved one, visiting them can be time-consuming, expensive, and difficult to plan. However, visits — even if they occur only a few times a year — are an ideal time to check up on your loved one’s well-being. In-home caregivers can handle many of your loved one’s daily household tasks, so you can make the most of your visit to enjoy each other’s company.
- Be an information coordinator
While a professional caregiver may be occupied with your loved one’s day-to-day needs, you may be better equipped to work on long-term needs, such as legal and financial paperwork, that your loved one can’t manage. Creating and sharing a document to keep track of all your loved one’s needs can keep everyone in the loop to ensure the right care happens.
- Plan ahead for emergencies
In the event of an emergency, being prepared can make all the difference in the world. When you work with family and in-home caregivers to create and share a plan for emergencies that may occur based on your parent’s condition, it can be a lifesaver – literally.
Many family caregivers may not be able to provide the “hands-on” help they would like if they live far away. However, it is still possible to form a strong partnership with nearby family members and in-home caregivers to surround an elderly loved one with the compassionate care they need and deserve.

A heap of fun for goofing about on, the Stereo’s supple torsional flex and cranky sidecut radius add real charisma to this park-to-pow cruiser. Spiced-up with a lick of carbon and a modest, easy-flexing camber, its skate-like snap will pop onto or over anything. Blunt, early-rising tips add real pow-shredding prowess to the Stereo’s repertoire.
A true-twin for freestyle riders hunting for their next lip or transition to get airborne from, manicured or natural, in or outside of boundary ropes.
A half-fat camber for all-mountain dominance. Its toned-down dimensions deliver a precise and lively feel much like Pop Camber, but with much improved deep snow performance and a more “broken-in” feel out of the shrink-wrap. In Amplid’s directional snowboards a touch of early rise is added to Cruise Camber to improve buoyancy even further.

This superlight wood core is the industry standard for lighteweight, durable and versatile performance. We’ve tweaked this core so many times over the years there’s nothing left to improve.
A narrow band of uni-directional carbon stringers that run through the centreline of a ski or snowboard from tip-to-tail increasing pop and extending flex memory without altering torsional stiffness.
Using Biaxial Glass in the construction of our shreds gives them a flawless blend of response and playfulness whilst keeping them ridiculously lightweight.
A smooth kick radius and fuller tip outline improves deep snow floatation without adding swing weight.
Amplid’s ultra-high density sintered base goes like shit-off-a-shovel in all snow conditions. It is extremely hard and therefore more resistant to damage.
Tough, pre-cured composite impact plates placed beneath bindings and touring hardware significantly reduce the risk of topsheet dings and breakages.
Full-depth channels are CNC-ed into the core and filled with low-shore-hardness TPU. TPU reduces vibrations by absorbing shear energy. The ride is smoother, more precise and less fatiguing.

It is a truth universally acknowledged that a Chinese state-owned enterprise (SOE) in possession of industrial assets must be in want of reform. China’s reforms have released many assets into private ownership, but large blocks remain in corporations linked either to the central government or to a local government via chains of corporate ownership. The State Council’s latest guidelines on the reform of state-linked enterprises envisage more private ownership, some mergers, and a greater role for state asset management companies. But would that ensure better corporate governance?

The Dragon's Keep was Dragon's home before she abandoned it.
In the first film, Shrek would be furious to get the banished fairy tale characters out of his swamp. Meanwhile, Lord Farquaad, who rules Duloc, plans to finish building his kingdom by getting a queen to rule beside him. When he starts a tournament to find his knight to appoint for facing the dangerous dragon, he lost all his men to one ogre which he names the knight for his quest. Shrek accepts in return that he gets his swamp back from the occupying fairy tale characters. Shrek and Donkey try to sneak to the tower where Fiona waits, but Donkey awakens the dragon. When Shrek tries to save Donkey from the dragon, he is tossed up into the tower. Once he rescues the princess, he must find and take back his "noble steed". They succeed in fleeing the tower where they nearly fell into a pit filled with lava.
In the second film, the abandoned castle would become unoccupied except for Big Bad Wolf when Prince Charming finally arrives to save the princess. The wolf informs Charming that Fiona is already rescued and married. In this movie and later ones, the castle would be frequently mentioned sometimes where Shrek wished he never rescued Fiona.
In the fourth film, Shrek finds himself someone who no longer exists. In order to reverse the deal that took away his life, he has to get his true love's kiss, meaning Fiona. He ran to the Dragon's Keep, which was abandoned, even though Donkey was never there to get Dragon to find him. It is revealed that Fiona escaped herself and had grown tired of waiting (which she thinks will never happen).
The Dragon's Keep looks like a ruined castle. It is surrounded by a pit of lava, and the only way to get across is to cross a rickety bridge. It also has a lot of towers; Fiona's tower is the tallest. The bridge fell apart in Shrek. However, in Shrek 2, Prince Charming gets across, and he went to rescue Fiona. However, he realized that the Big Bad Wolf had taken her place while reading a magazine.
Inside the highest room in the tallest tower is where Princess Fiona lived (one could say, "Slept," but it's revealed in Shrek the Musical that she is actually a "morning person", and usually drinks a lot of coffee every morning) until Shrek rescued her. The room is relatively simple, round, carpeted walls, and a window-seatName? that opens up and doubles as a chest.
Dragon's Chambers include the Treasure Room, the Bedroom, and the extra chamber. Dragon's Chambers haven't got use as Dragon abandoned it.

Android App Revenue Only 7% of iOS Revenue? Not So Fast
Up until last year Android revenue for app developers used to be pretty abysmal, and in some cases it was even 50 times smaller than iOS revenue. This was in part because of Apple’s huge lead with the iPhone in user base, when Android was still just in the growing period.
So I saw a report yesterday saying that Android apps get only 7% of the revenue of iOS, I immediately thought that’s an improvement, considering it’s just 15x smaller. However, I also thought it sounds a little too small considering how far Android has gotten, with 200 million devices versus Apple’s 250 million. Plus, I had a feeling he would compare the revenues the wrong way.
And it seems I was right. He only compared the “paid apps” revenues. I think everyone knows by now that most apps on Android are free and ad-based, not paid apps. So by default this was a flawed comparison. Some developers even make more money on Android by using ads and offering their apps for free, than they make on iOS by offering paid apps. And that is completely relevant to a new developer, but this chart would mislead him into thinking there’s no way of making as much money as on iOS. That is just wrong.
But it doesn’t stop here. Another way he’s doing it wrong is by comparing the total revenue Apple has paid to developers since 2007 to the total revenue Android has paid to developers since its inception.
Why would he even do that? What’s the point of that, other than to show Apple is somehow ahead? That stat is meaningless for developers deciding on which platform to build their app now. If Android would’ve been stagnant since 2008, and the ratio between Apple’s market share and Android’s market share would’ve been kept the same, then it would’ve made sense. But it’s far from that.
Last year Android went from 4% market share to 30%, and this year it has gone from 30% to around 55%. That’s about 2:1 ratio compared to Apple for new users, and almost 1:1 ratio for total user base, and because of the fast growth it’s going to surpass Apple in user base very soon, too.
So it really doesn’t make sense to compare the revenues both platforms got 2 years ago. What developers would want to know is how much money they could make right now on each, and how easy it would be to become popular on each of them. So a stat for say the last 3 months, would be a whole lot more relevant to them than a stat that shows how much money Android made when it barely even existed.
I know some people like to say that Android users only like free stuff, which could be true for some of the more tech oriented ones, but let’s not forget that the techies are quickly becoming a small percentage of all the people buying Android phones. Android phones are everywhere and almost at any price point. It’s bound to become used by just about anyone, including regular people who, just like a lot of iPhone users, would prefer the convenience of buying an app rather than trying to get it for free through other means.
The paid apps are more popular on iOS because Apple had their credit cards from day one, and it’s much easier to buy an app when your credit card is already stored in the account, rather than trying to buy an application, and getting prompted for your credit card information. Fortunately, I hear that Android 4.0 will ask you for your credit card information from day one (if you’re willing to give it of course) so that should make it a lot more easier for normal people to buy apps in the future.
At the rate Android is growing, there’s no doubt in my mind that it will become the most popular mobile platform in a couple of years, and that includes giving the most revenue to developers, too.

Adon Olam Messianic Congregation has a 22-year history of sharing the Jewish Messiah and teaching the Jewish roots of the New Covenant faith here in Greenville, South Carolina.
1995 - 1998
In June of 1995, Upstate Messianic Fellowship was incorporated and began meeting monthly at the First Christian Church on Edwards Road in Greenville, SC under the leadership of Paul Cohen.
The meetings were moved in 1996 to Redemption World Outreach Center on Byrdland Dr. in Greenville. At first, the group met once a month, but soon shifted to twice a month.
In 1997, the meeting location and schedule were changed once again. The meetings were now held every week at the Senior Action Center on East McBee Ave. in Greenville.
The meeting location changed to the Fellowship Hall of Augusta Road Baptist Church in Greenville in 1998 where weekly Shabbat services and a mid-week Scripture study were held.
Upstate Messianic Fellowship officially became a congregation as part of the International Alliance of Messianic Congregations and Synagogues (IAMCS) and took the name Adon Olam Messianic Congregation.
2003 - 2004
In December of 2003, the congregation purchased a building on 18 acres of land in Piedmont, SC and began renovating it for use as a synagogue.
The congregation held its first Sabbath service in the newly renovated building in May of 2004 and the official dedication of the building was held in November of that year.
2008 - 2015
The Rabbi resigned in September of 2008 and one of the elders, Todd Lesser, took over as interim leader of the congregation.
In July of 2014, Todd Lesser became the full-time congregational leader of Adon Olam.
Rabbi Lesser was ordained by the International Alliance of Messianic Congregations and Synagogues as a Messianic Rabbi in January of 2015.

The latest related-party deal involving
The deal is clever because he will simultaneously simplify the structure of his media interests, help private equity group and fellow Seven Media Group (SMG) owner Kohlberg Kravis Roberts restructure $2 billion in relatively cheap debt, and give certainty to a newspaper that is as structurally challenged as any in Australia.
But he needs to win over the parochial retail shareholders in Perth who have bought the WAN stock for its dividend and probably would be wary of owning a company that will lift its net debt from $226 million to $1.99 billion.
However, being a local hero, Stokes would be confident of convincing enough retail shareholders in Perth to vote in favour of the transaction. The deal requires a simple majority. After excluding his related- party interests, the retail investors in WAN speak for 50 per cent of the stock being voted.
WAN shareholders will no doubt be the subject of intense lobbying by the WAN board. They could have reason to be a little confused. It was only two years ago that the then WAN board, headed by Peter Mansell, claimed that a move by Seven to remove all the directors and appoint Stokes chairman was an attempt to take control of WAN without paying a premium.
Stokes lost that initial bout when shareholders voted down his proposed board changes but the WAN board later rolled over and welcomed Stokes and SGH chief executive
SGH could have gone to 29 per cent of WAN through the creep provisions of the law, so the move to 29 per cent through this transaction could be regarded as not that dramatic.
The biggest concern of retail investors will be whether or not the expanded company can maintain its high dividend payout ratio. The dividend yield on the stock being sold to finance the SMG acquisition is 8.7 per cent.
With a debt to EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxation, depreciation and amortisation) multiple of three times, the new Seven West Media will be highly leveraged and vulnerable to sudden changes in the economy. But its latest financial results for the half year to December showed it was benefiting from the lift in advertising revenues.
Also, Seven Media Group lifted revenue 10 per cent and growth in EBITDA of 26 per cent to $268.6 million. The valuation metrics involved in the deal stack up well for WAN shareholders. They are being offered an opportunity to invest in the expanded group at a 2011 price-earnings multiple of 11.1 times based on the issue price of $5.20.
That compares with a 2011 price- earnings multiple for Ten Network of 14.2, Fairfax Media – which publishes this newspaper – of 10.5 and WAN 12.9.
The comparison of multiples using EBITDA is equally favourable. The price being paid by WAN for SMG is nine times EBITDA. Ten Network is trading on 2011 EBITDA multiple of 8.7, and Fairfax at 7.2. WAN’s independent expert, Ernst & Young, adjusted these for control premium and came up with 10.1 for Ten Network and 8.2 for Fairfax.
But no one was willing to say yesterday that the current deal would somehow benefit other media companies trading at lower multiples.
In some ways, WAN shareholders are facing the same issues faced by shareholders in Seven Network last year when it announced a merger with the Stokes-controlled Caterpillar distributor WesTrac to create Seven Group Holdings.
The WesTrac deal would never have been put to Seven shareholders if it had not been owned by Stokes.
Similarly, the SMG deal would never have been put to WAN if it were not owned by Stokes.
The Westrac deal had its critics but it was voted through by 98 per cent of those shareholders who voted. The results released yesterday by SGH showed that the WesTrac deal was very positive for Seven shareholders.
The deal was done at a price of $6.50 and the stock closed yesterday at $9.30. WesTrac performed beyond expectations although its offshore business was hit by the 19 per cent appreciation in the Australian dollar.
The Stokes reverse takeover of West Australian Newspapers by Seven Group Holdings does not win any prizes for originality. The marriage of TV and newspapers under one roof used to be the norm in Australia including at Fairfax Media. At that time, newspaper companies and TV stations did not maximise the synergy benefits but the two businesses were seen as complementary.
That business model was killed for 20 years by former prime minister
Media companies had to choose between being “a queen of screen" or “a prince of print". That changed in 2007 when media companies were allowed to own two out of the three main types of media – TV, radio or newspapers.
Stokes bought the CTC7 TV station in Canberra from Fairfax in 1980 so he has been in the TV game for longer than most in the industry.
He is adding newspapers to the mix at a time when the race is on to crank up the digital sales side of the business and somehow monetise the information now being given away for free by WAN.
There is no doubt that the change in the WAN board and its management led to an escalation of the investment in the online side of WAN with assistance from staff from SGH. The combination of TV or broadcast media such as pay TV and newspapers has been used successfully by other media moguls.
The cynics who claim Stokes is cleaning up at the expense of minority shareholders in WAN may have difficulty proving their argument. That claim ignores the fact that he is not taking money off the table because of some windfall gain.
The big winner from the transaction, however, is KKR. It was locked in an investment that was done in the heyday of easy credit and booming asset prices. It bought the Seven Media Group assets at a multiple of 12.6 times EBITDA and is getting out at a lot less.
It is a 45 per cent shareholder in a company that would have struggled to be sold through an initial public offering. The company’s $2 billion debt was split into senior and subordinated debt with a blended interest margin over swap of about 300 basis points.
KKR’s local managing director
They reckon it would have been hard to refinance a business that had net debt to EBITDA of 4.5 to 5.5 times. However, the refinancing is not until December 2012 so there was time for a deal to be done.
WAN independent director Doug Flynn said the deal with SMG was suggested to the WAN board by SGH.
But there must have been a confluence of interests because the board had for some time been concerned about how WAN would survive in the long term as a one-newspaper company. That concern was in place despite the company’s quasi monopoly of Perth.
The former board of WAN, led by Mansell, claimed during the fracas in 2008 over board seats that WAN shareholders needed to be wary of losing their competitive position.
But these days the board sees synergy benefits from having 70 per cent of the revenue and earnings of the business coming from free-to-air television, the internet and magazines.
Stokes is trying to help a company bridge the gap to a digital business.
The marriage of two old media businesses is, in effect, an attempt to extend the existing newspaper model of printed distribution as long as possible. It is a vote of confidence in a medium that has successfully brought advertisers and readers together for hundreds of years.
But it is also a recognition that just as cinema had to invest to survive TV after 1956, so too for newspapers.

Hundreds of millions of the poorest people in India will have to pay more for staple foods like rice and vegetables, if foreign supermarkets are refused permission to open in India, the country's chief economist told The Times of India on Tuesday.
Kaushik Basu, one of Prime Minister Manmohan Singh's close advisers, said allowing supermarket chains like Tesco and Wal-Mart to open their first stores in India would be one of the most effective ways of helping the country deal with food inflation, which stands close to 10 percent.
There is a lot of misunderstanding about these changes, he said, Without them, Indians will just have to get used to paying higher prices for food.
He further explained that approximately 40 percent of Indian fruits and vegetable supplies became spoilt before they reached the consumers, citing poor quality roads, a lack of infrastructure and a general lack of infrastructure. Additional investment, he reasoned, would keep prices down and help the overall economy.
The Indian economy, which is Asia's third-largest, threw open its $450 billion retail market to global supermarket giants last week, with Food Minister K.V. Thomas saying the government would allow Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) of up to 51 percent in multi-brand retail stores, as supermarkets are known in India. He also said the government would raise the cap on foreign investment in single-brand retailing to 100 percent from 51 percent.
However, the government appeared to be backtracking on Monday, following pressure from its political opposition over what is, potentially, one of the most far-reaching reforms in recent years.

Aleem Walji, director of the World Bank’s Innovation Labs, recently gave an interview to Forbes and the Skoll World Forum on all things innovation and development. This blog post highlights some of the key points from that interview.
When I joined the World Bank at the end of 2009, I was asked how we could more systematically support innovation. We started by building on the Bank’s own “access to information” policy, which was foundational for our Open Data initiative. When we made our data available to the world in a machine-readable format, searchable, and reusable, back in April 2010, people came in droves. Within months, we had more traffic to our data catalogue than the World Bank homepage.
Another powerful insight we had was to link maps through “Mapping for Results” with poverty data and project results to show the relationship between where we lend, where poor people live, and the results of our work. While it may sound simple or obvious, even today development partners struggle to map the relationship between projects they fund and poverty indicators in a given country. We quickly realized the value of “mapping aid” and making aid data transparent and comparable. The Open Aid Partnership grew out of that impulse.

Hello Everyone 12>thereisalwaystruth posted:7/10/2012 12:08:22 PM First off, I want to say thank you to everyone who has had part in making this website what it is. From the web designers (proper terminology?) to people who have submitted personal accounts, relative information, or replies and comments to accounts and such. This is a great website, interesting and easy to navigate. Also, I have a few various accounts that are unexplained that I will eventually thread onto the web. I am a theorist, a critic, a total believer. I like to think on a deeper level on things such as human psyche and relativity to all things. I believe all is possible and at the same time some things are only possible with belief. Oh, the only thing I don't believe and think is total bullshit is our government... all government. War is real, politics are a... well we say it all the time, a race. Buuut anyhoo, anytime somebody might want an opinion from a ;)gramatticcaly corect ;) rule breaker, I'm always up for a good chat. I don't mind sharing a bit of info that titillates my own reality as well. Remember There is always truth0x6a656666 posted:7/10/2012 2:10:31 PM That would make two of us. I love the nickname!

I refer you to Russell and Whitehead and the development of positivism at the start of the 1900's. mysticism comes with desires and their interpretations, math produces truths that can only be supported by logic and reasoning, it is a study that appears to be different in that regards. I do not assert one to be >better< than the other. Merely different than the other. With Aspergerm Syndrome I do what I can to limit my interactions with people.

Enjoy the site,I know I do!!thereisalwaystruth posted:7/11/2012 1:54:14 AM Some good points have already been made. Let me say that mathematics are numeral. Though the numbers are not solid matter, it is what they represent. The rules cannot, to my knowledge, be broken in terms of numbers. They are solid state terms that are paired with objects or things to be multiplied. 1 apple is 1 apple. You cannot make 3 apples if you are adding 1 and 1 no matter how you try. So in turn yes mathematics are a simple yet firm truth. Words on the other hand words and letters can be bent slightly, and vary greatly between culture. F can be made with ph in america, and in other countries those letters may not even exist. 1 apple is 1 apple in america, japan, or russia all the same. Though these should not be compared as they are of totally different aspects of reality and life. Sometimes the truth may be unbelievable, but fact is fact, and there is always a right and a wrong answer to an equation. Thank you jeff, I never thought it would start such a fire lol. It was the first thing I came up with, and it was probably heavily influenced by me reading the moon anomalies. Well at the end of the day, let's all be a friends and have a beer! Your reality may differ from mine, I may be the space creature who defies the laws of time and space. The truth is there, even if noone knows what it is.gary107 posted:7/11/2012 1:34:37 PM the counting system being used can give different answers. The third prime three digit number base 10 is 107, but the third digit number base 12 is 111 [157 in base 10]. 23 in base 10 counting is 2 tens and three ones which is 23, but 23 in base 12 counting system is two 12's and three ones which is 27 in base 10. You can change the starting point and the rules of counting [by 12 instead of 10] yet what you do is still counting and you arrive at an equivalent answer. In France they used to count base 20 [they used both hands and toes ?]. You need to know the counting system and then what the digit means in the place where it is. 107 base 10 is 107. 107 base 12 is 1B [ 96 and 11 base 10 ] or in base 20 it is 57 [ 100 and 7 ]. We tend to see the world around us through the filter of our lives experiences, math tries to limit the impact of that filter by the use of firm rules and methods. I see that there is an effort to apply method to the study of some aspects of paranormal events. Is it right or correct to do this?gary107 posted:7/11/2012 2:22:25 PM I recall talking with our department chairman, Dr. Carella, in the late 1980's regarding a stock insurance plan using derivatives as a method to put "confidence" into market investments. He said it would allow folks to invest with greater assurance and lead to a market expansion, which it did. He died in the late 1990's knowing he was right. I cautioned against applying mathematical absrtacts against real market events, when it all comes back to roost, then it is my turn to be correct. 90 % plus of all banking transactions these days empoly the use of RSA encoding using two 200 digit long prime numbers to produce a 400 digit long combined number. In 2003 I came up with a method to break the large combined numberm down into it's large primes. I live with apprehension that some group of teenagers may come by the method and apply it to their own ends. It is good to be able to figure it out, but bad if it gets out. Russia has a different method in their banking system based on the CzeckSloviakian mechine the German army used during World War II.

They take two very large prime numbers and produce a combimed number by multipying them together. One factor is kept as a private key and the other one is made public so that people can sent you secure information. Banks use their system for transfering funds from one account to another.

That gives us E and 1/2d and from there A and B. You will need a program of Multiple Precision Arthmetic Library [MPAL] that can handle long digit numbers and offer the precision needed. The QBasic program [which is limited to relatively small digit numbers] would read as follows: 10 COUNT = 0 11 FOR N = 1 TO 1500 12 COUNT = SQR((N^2) + 11426419) 13 IF COUNT = INT(COUNT)THEN PRINT COUNT ELSE 17 14 PRINT N 15 PRINT INT(COUNT) - N 16 PRINT INT(COUNT) + N 17 NEXT N 18 END This produces the results: 3590 1209 2381 4799 E is 3590 1/2dn is 1209 A is 3590 - 1209 = 2381 B is 3590 + 1209 = 4799 A x B is 4799 x 2381 = 11426419 have fun but do no harm, with best regards for you and yours Gary San Diego, Calif. gary107 posted:7/27/2012 2:15:39 AM / so people can send you secure...gary107 posted:7/27/2012 2:18:51 AM the program moved all the positionings to the far left, now is does not appear clear.

History of the OFBA
At the 1968 SPAAMFAA national convention in Syracuse, NY a number of buffs from Southern Ontario happened to become acquainted with each other and subsequently decided that it might be a good idea to form a SPAAMFAA chapter or similar Buff group north of the border.
It was, however, three years before the Ontario Fire Buffs Association came into being with the thought of having a central connecting point which would not only attract people with similar interests in the fire service but offer them the opportunity to share information about the fire services in Ontario through a bi-monthly newsletter known as the “Third Alarm”.
In 1979, the Association had the opportunity to obtain ownership of a piece of fire apparatus and for legal reasons was incorporated under our present name, the Ontario Fire Buff Associates, more commonly known as the OFBA.
Our members come from many walks of life and their “common interest” in the fire service is very diverse. “Interests” include canteen / rehab services to fire departments; fire department histories; fire and apparatus photography; collecting and preserving antique fire apparatus and equipment; attending fire service musters; shoulder patch collecting, monitoring fire service Communications and building / collecting scale model fire apparatus.
The OFBA currently has *109 members, 99 Canadians, 6 Americans and 4 from the UK*
The OFBA has been instrumental in helping other clubs spring up throughout Ontario. Some of these are:
Box 12 Association in Toronto, founded in 1949;
Box 43 Association, Hamilton;
Lakeshore Fire Buffs in Mississauga;

A Building Block of the Japanese Mentality, and the Anthropology of Japanese Education in reference to Lauren J. Kotloff’s “… And Tomoko wrote this song for us” from Thomas P. Rohlen and Gerald K. LeTendre’s “Teaching and learning in Japan (1996)”
While anthropology is referred to as the social science that studies human beings’ origins and social relationships, the anthropology of education goes more in depth by studying the way a child is fostered and raised through the different types of education that eventually shape his/her beliefs. While knowing Japan’s uniqueness in endless aspects, we ask ourselves, how are Japanese children educated and how do they reach adulthood with this unique mentality that foreigners don’t quite comprehend simply?
The following is a passage from “… And Tomoko wrote this song for us” by Lauren J. Kotloff’s from Thomas P. Rohlen and Gerald K. LeTendre’s Teaching and learning in Japan (1996).
“At Dai-ichi, a Japanese preschool, two classes of five-year-olds have been working together to write and develop a play for a holiday school assembly. Tomoko, who is particularly fond of writing stories and poems, decides to write a song for the play. She brings lyrics to school one morning and works on them during the free play period. With the help of her teacher and two classmates, Tomoko sits at the piano and sets her words to music, amid much laughter and chatter. Afterward, the class has its Morning Class Meeting, where the teacher explains to the group that Tomoko has written a song for their class play. She thanks Tomoko as well as the two classmates who helped her, for writing “such a nice song for us” and begins to sing it to the class. They begin to sing along with her, and after several repetitions, most of the children have learned the song. Saying, “Here the girls wrote such a nice song,” she prompts the children to agree to use it as the finale of their play. A few days later, when I heard the teacher refers to the song as “the song that we all wrote together,” I realized that what I had regarded as Tomoko’s song had become the class’s song. Indeed, when the children performed the play at the assembly, the teacher made no mention of Tomoko’s special contribution. She simply introduced the play as “the play that the five-year- old classes wrote together.”
While this seems as if the teacher didn’t give Tomoko the credit she deserves, this is where Japanese education differs from the rest; Lauren J. Kotloff argues that even though special recognition would usually be considered a self-esteem developer in many cultures, in Japan, however, it is the sense of contribution to the group that boosts children’s self-esteem. Considering Tomoko is a pre-school student demonstrates how early Japanese people flourish such a unique mentality and behavior. Furthermore, Kotloff explains how throughout the years starting from pre-school, Japanese people are educated to operate mostly in groups through emotional bonding with the rest of the classmates and the commitment to group projects. With the aforementioned, students establish a sense of collective identity where individuality is reflected through group contributions giving an incentive for students to not only be unselfish but also generous.
We can clearly notice how this sort of education reflects when looking at the citizens of Japan and the way they operate. From low-wages jobs to the highest, individuals in Japan are selfless; they get the job done for the well-being of the nation and its image.
In addition, most employees of regular employment in Japanese companies are involved in what is referred to as “lifetime-employment”, demonstrating loyalty to only one company from the very beginning of their careers. While this may seem irregular and slightly extreme in many countries, it can’t be considered unusual in Japan, and that is due to the collective identity spirit developed since pre-school.
Finally, we can conclude that despite the fact that human beings change throughout the years of growth in many ways, education remains one of the main building blocks for the formation of a mentality that will be carried throughout adulthoods and portrayed through behaviors that could partially be understood only by looking back. One only has to look back at how Japanese were educated to partially understand how the nation was orchestrated to demonstrate such honorable efficiency and genuine benevolence.

Annual Genest Lecture examines integration projects in the global south
An examination of regional integration projects in the global south will be the focus of the 2017 Pierre Genest Global Lecture, presented by Osgoode Hall Law School on March 7.
The lecture, titled “Theorising the Relationship Between Social Rights and Markets in Regional Integration Projects” will be delivered by Professor Diamond Ashiagbor of the Institute of Advanced Legal Studies, School of Advanced Study, University of London. Ir runs 12:30 to 2pm in Room 2027.
Ashiagbor will look at projects in the global south and constraints upon them, in particular, the social dislocations caused by global and European trade policies, and the response in the south to the institutional design of the global trade regime.
The rise of the market ads the ‘metric of rationality of law and policy’ challenges labour market institutions and social policies, especially in the context of cross-national market integration projects (namely the European Union and the African Union) of which a core raison d’être is that labour is commodified as one of the factors of production.
Ashiagbor will examine the role of labour law and of labour market institutions as part of an array of adjustment mechanisms responding to the liberalization of trade and the opening of national borders: To what extent can social rights mediate the operation of markets, and what does this mean viewed from the perspective of developing countries as well as industrialized ones?.

The Pierre Genest Memorial Fund was established to honour the memory of Pierre Genest, who died in 1989. Genest graduated from Osgoode Hall Law School in 1954 and became one of the finest counsels in Canada, respected not only for his gifts as a lawyer and an advocate, but also for his personal qualities. It brings distinguished legal scholars to Osgoode to deliver the Pierre Genest Memorial Lecture.

The body of evidence keeps growing that higher ozone levels lead to higher asthma risk. In this recent study it was found that the prevalence of asthmatic symptoms was about 4% higher at high ozone sites as compared to low ozone sites. In order to neutralize the effects of the other components of air pollution in the analysis sites were chosen with low levels of nitrogen dioxide and volatile organic compounds.
This study was reported in the July issue of the Journal Allergy and was conducted by a team from the University of Porto in Portugal lead by Dr. Maria Alvim-Ferraz. The researchers studied a group of 478 children between the ages of 6 and 13 years from four “remote” geographical sites with high and low ozone levels.
The children living in low ozone level areas experienced asthma symptoms at the rate of 3.5%. Those living in high ozone areas had asthma symptoms at the rate of 7.1%. The researchers monitored ozone levels and used questionnaires to collect data on asthma prevalence.
The authors stated that it was difficult to compare their results with those of previous studies because the parameters of analysis were not standardized. Also, they added that other possible factors in asthma development such as mould and pollen concentrations were not included in the analysis and should be considered in future studies.
This study is interesting in that it has a relatively large sample size and tries to focus just on the effects of ozone. The lack of other data on allergen levels and factors such a PM2.5 levels is a negative. In and of it itself the study is not conclusive but when you add this to the studies of Bell et al. , Triche et al. and others you continue to develop knowledge of the effects of ozone on respiratory health.

Pure Poetry Week:
I met Eileen Myles on Autostraddle, which was a good sign. My first thought at meeting her was that I had to leave this class I was in because oh my god I found this poet. Eileen knew everything, and her poetry felt genuine. I always feel when I read an Eileen Myles poem that I am getting to know her so much better.
My first Eileen Myles poem said this and was called “Smile”:
time he smiled he thought Eileen
is a fool. Or that’s what love looks
Somewhere between that day and today, the day you let me talk about Eileen Myles, I left class and bought a leather bomber jacket and bought Skies. I had also developed an ebay addiction. Skies is a collection of poems. It was really cheap on ebay. The day after it arrived, I packed a bag and left home. I packed Skies. I didn’t want to lose it so I carried it with me.
That night I ended up at a close friend who also writes for Autostraddle‘s house. At the end of the night it was my two friends and I and Eileen. I read Skies to them.
When I put Skies in my backpack I put away a photograph inside of someone I thought I was losing. I knew it would be safe there because I was going to keep Skies on my bedside table. It seemed cute, just her and I and Eileen.
Soon I had bought Sorry, Tree and The New Fuck You: An Adventure in Lesbian Reading which wasn’t written by Eileen, but she edited it and I knew she’d have good taste. And I took Cool for You out of the library… and renewed it. I saved up for Inferno.
Every time I read a new Eileen Myles book, I end up carrying it on me for weeks. I think I’m going to end up with a good collection. I would never lose it.

If you haven't yet heard of Kontakte, perhaps you'll remember their name from our Record Label Spotlight with Northern Star Records (read it HERE), as we gave them a lot of love in that article. And deservedly so - this UK outfit, consisting of Ian Griffiths, Gary McDermott, Stuart Low and Ben Worth, has been blowing my mind in particular ever since receiving their first full length LP, Soundtracks To Lost Road Movies, in 2008, from their label Drifting Falling. Soundtracks is a great LP, but it in no way prepared me for how amazing their newest release, which came out in March 2011, would be. Entitled We Move Through Negative Spaces, this LP is an absolute triumph for Kontakte, incredibly gorgeous. We have a review of the new LP coming up next week on the blog, but until then, enjoy the following interview with band member Ian Griffiths, and have a listen to some of the tracks here. You will no doubt be instantly converted. When The Sun Hits expects huge things from Kontakte in the future, and after getting a taste of the music, you'll see why.
Is there any significance behind the name "Kontakte"?
It is significant in terms of where the name was taken from and the lineage of electronic based music as we see it.
The name "KONTAKTE" was taken from Stockhausen's 1958 seminal Electronic-Acoustic arrangement Kontakte - fur elektronische Klange, Klavier und Schlagzeug. This was essentially the first recording to contain both Electronic and Acoustic sounds, something quite extraordinary at the time. The name seemed to instantly resonate with what sits at the heart of our sound; processed electronic beats and synths, juxtaposed with "classical" and "organic" instruments such as guitars, piano, percussion instruments; and (as we have experimented with on the new record) live strings.
Kontakte. The Ocean Between You and Me.
How was Kontakte formed?
Kontakte was initially a bedroom project that for a long time was dying to be released and turned into a full band capable of playing live shows. As soon as a few tracks were uploaded to what was once the hub of online music (Myspace - RIP), they received a lot of good feedback and the process started to form a "real" band.
In all honesty, it took a while to find the right people. I think other musicians out there will understand what I mean. People who understood the basic idea and had a kinship with the music already written, and didn't feel the need to enter the fold, hell bent on changing what was already a working project. Forming a band can be quite a challenge and Kontakte has been no exception. You realise that you've come full circle, though, when you find the right people and when the music evolves by itself. Our new album is testament to that.
Can you tell us what you've been working on and what you've got forthcoming in the near future (new releases, tour, etc)?
Our new album! We Move Through Negative Spaces has been the labour of our love for the past two years. It goes without saying that we are very excited for people to hear this record. We believe it's a step up from our debut in terms of songwriting, instrumentation and production. When you put a lot of time and effort into something and hear it back in its full form and hold the finished article, you do feel quite a big sense of acheivement.
To coincide, we are playing shows through the spring and early summer including, a much anticipated second visit to Germany.
Kontakte. Hope (live).
What is the most important piece of gear for your sound? Any particular guitars/pedals/amps/synths you prefer?
Well, our guitarists' set-ups are extremely important. Right now, we'd certainly be lost without them. Without getting too nerdy, the amps and pedals used all serve their own purpose. We use Sunn, Fender and Ampeg amps. EHX make some great pedals, as do Line6, and everyone needs a few Boss stompboxes!
I think one thing that sets us apart though is our continuous use of electronic beats/laptops - that is integral to our sound. These beats come from a variety of sources but are generally programmed in Cubase or Ableton.
What artists have most influenced your work?
Every member of the band could probably come up with a different artist or band and that in itself is what makes Kontakte what it is. We are all influenced by a range of artists and different types of music. Anything from Brian Eno to Sunn O))), Tim Hecker to Mono, MBV to TV On The Radio - that's quite a range of taste just there!
Do you consider what you are doing to be "shoegaze" or "psychedelia"? Do you feel that you are part of the shoegaze/psychedelia scene, or any scene?
I don't think any of us would necessarily think we are either Shoegaze or Psychedelic at all. Just as much as we don't dwell on whether we are Post Rock or Krautrock. The fact is that a ton of different labels have been thrown at Kontakte over the past few years, and in a positive way we seem to ride on the crest of all of that and continue to do our own thing which, we don't think, is specific to any type of sound. That works in our favour. People seem to hear a lot of different things in our music which tells us that our sound is not one-dimensional.
Kontakte. A Snowflake in Her Hand.
We absolutely do NOT attach ourselves to any "scene" that may be happening now or ever. Scenes might be a good party for some, but in our view are essentially unhealthy for music. How does a scene develop itself? The music created within a scene can at times become a bit staid and repetitive. If you are intent on being creative and are attempting to do your own thing and wish to develop that thing, then being part of a scene can easily hinder that progress.
What do you think of modern shoegaze/psychedelic bands? Any favourites?
Having said all that above, there are a hell of a lot of great new bands coming through at the moment and a number of great labels that are continuously pushing new music. Two bands springing to mind are The Lost Rivers and Ceremony. We're playing a show with them in Munich very soon - it could well be the gig of the year! A good place to start with labels would be Drifting Falling, Northern Star, Club AC30, Erased Tapes, Field, Monotreme, Gizeh, Home Normal, Hibernate.
Kontakte. Early Evening Bleeds Into Night.
Would you tell us a little about what you are currently into (bands, books, films, etc)?
Film and it's accompanying soundtrack is something that's always interested Kontakte. It's also something we'd love to be working towards and creating in the future. We're big fans of Clint Mansell, who is extremely prolific and always manages to score excellent music to equally excellent films - Requiem For a Dream, The Fountain, Moon, Smokin' Aces, Black Swan, etc.
If you had to choose one Kontakte track that would be the ultimate definition of your sound and aesthetic, which would it be?
Interesting question. Something tells me we shouldn't name one song, as that would suggest that our work here is done. I guess the fact we want to continue writing and continue putting out albums suggests the "ultimate" Kontakte track hasn't been written yet? To date, this new album is definitely the closest definition of our approach. The "space" suggested in the artwork is the kind of image we want our music to evoke in people's imaginations when they hear the album. Somewhere, perhaps both bleak and beautiful.
To Move Through Negative Spaces, and to come out the other side in a better place. Simple.

Plants 'seen doing quantum physics'
- 21 June 2013
- From the section Science & Environment
The idea that plants make use of quantum physics to harvest light more efficiently has received a boost.
Plants gather packets of light called photons, shuttling them deep into their cells where their energy is converted with extraordinary efficiency.
A report in Science journal adds weight to the idea that an effect called a "coherence" helps determine the most efficient path for the photons.
Experts have called the work "a nice proof" of some contentious ideas.
Prior work has shown weaker evidence that these coherences existed in relatively large samples from plants.
But the new study has been done painstakingly, aiming lasers at single molecules of the light-harvesting machinery to show how light is funnelled to the so-called reaction centres within plants where light energy is converted into chemical energy.
What has surprised even the researchers behind the study is not only that these coherences do indeed exist, but that they also seem to change character, always permitting photons to take the most efficient path into the reaction centres.
Until very recently, quantum mechanics - a frequently arcane branch of physics most often probed in laboratory settings at the coldest temperatures and lowest pressures - would not have been expected in biological settings.
The fact that plants and animals are extremely warm and soft by comparison would suggest that delicate quantum states should disappear in living things, leaving behaviour explicable by the more familiar "classical physics" that is taught in school.
But the new results join the ranks of a field that seems finally to be gaining ground: quantum biology.
Niek van Hulst of the Institute of Photonic Sciences in Castelldefels, Spain, and colleagues studied the light-harvesting complexes of purple bacteria to address the question.
These are literally like antennas that gather up light, and are arranged like adjacent rings.
When laser light is shone on just one isolated ring, some of it is re-released in the form of what is called fluorescence.
But what the team saw is that over time, that amount of fluorescence rose and fell - a sign that the energy was coming and going elsewhere: a coherence.
This is linked to the quantum mechanical notion of a "superposition": that a particle can effectively be in multiple places at once - or try multiple paths simultaneously.
"What you see here is this photon comes in, and it sees many energy pathways," explained Prof van Hulst.
"Where does it go? It goes to the one that's most efficient, the one where this quantum effect tells you it has the highest probability (of being put to use)," he told BBC News.
But the soft, flexible, warm conditions at room temperature mean that, as things move and jiggle - as life tends to do - that most efficient path can change. Remarkably, so did the evident path along the rings.
"Nature is very robust at keeping this up no matter what happens - this for me is something shocking," Prof van Hulst continued.
"The result is that this fluffy stuff at room temperature where everything is variable, it just works - with an efficiency of 90%: way, way better than any solar cell we can make ourselves."
Rienk van Grondelle of the Free University Amsterdam called the work "a very nice proof that the ideas that existed about these coherences are actually correct".
"The system is able to overcome this problem by sampling two or three of those pathways at the same time and simply use the one that is best - I think it's very, very beautiful," he told BBC News.
Other researchers are less convinced. Daniel Turner of the University of Toronto has been working on similar problems and says that the study's primary proof - the comings and goings of the fluorescence - are "not necessarily directly relevant to how photosynthesis works in natural conditions".
"There are still several questions regarding how the results of this and other… measurements of highly purified protein extracts relate to the natural sunlight conditions experienced by photosynthetic organisms," he told BBC News.
Even the notion of what is meant by "quantum effects" in relation to biology, he said, was still up for debate.
But for Prof van Grondelle, the paper is another impressive addition to the discussion.
"Of course (the acceptance of quantum effects in biology) is not going to come from one single paper," he said.
"It will take more evidence, and maybe more elaborate evidence that this is really happening. But this is how science goes."

"We are all aware that this meeting is something altogether special and in some sense unique, since it is neither an ordinary bilateral or diplomatic meeting between the Pope and Heads of State, nor an ecumenical initiative involving representatives of different Christian communities," Pope Francis said.
"The purpose of this retreat is for us to stand together before God and to discern his will," he continued. "It is to reflect on our own lives and the common mission the Lord has entrusted to us, to recognize our enormous shared responsibility for the present and future of the people of South Sudan, and to commit ourselves, reinvigorated and reconciled, to the building up of your nation."
Francis expressed his "spiritual closeness" with the all of the South Sudanese people, particularly refugees and the sick.
South Sudan's civil war has left 2.1 million people internally displaced, with another 2.5 million refugees, according to the United Nations.
"May the Merciful God touch the heart of every man and every woman in South Sudan, fill them with his grace and blessings, and bring forth rich fruits of lasting peace, even as the waters of the Nile, flowing through your country, bring life and abundant growth," Pope Francis said.
Pope Francis confirmed his "desire and hope" to visit South Sudan soon, adding that this future visit would be together with Welby and and the former Moderator of the General Assembly of the Church of Scotland.
A prior trip to the war torn country with Welby was cancelled in 2017 due to security concerns.
"Upon all the Christians of South Sudan who, in helping those in greatest need, bind up the wounds of Jesus' body, I implore God's abundant graces and assure them of a constant remembrance in my prayers," Pope Francis said.
"Peace is the fundamental condition for ensuring the rights of each individual and the integral development of an entire people. Jesus Christ, whom God the Father sent into the world as the Prince of Peace, gave us the model to follow," he said.
"Peace is the first gift that the Lord brought us, and the first commitment that leaders of nations must pursue."

A person has been arrested after an alleged “swatting” prank name led to police taking pictures useless a 28-year-old man.
Andrew Finch was shot at his entrance door on 28 December in Wichita, Kansas.
Police surrounded the house after receiving a hoax emergency name from a person claiming to have shot useless his father and brought his household hostage.
The decision stemmed from a row between two avid gamers taking part in Name of Obligation on-line, US media say, though the deal with raided was apparently unconnected to both.
Police have stated they imagine the report was an act of “swatting” the place an individual makes a false report back to ship police to a different individual or faux deal with.
Audio of the emergency name has been made public. A person may be heard telling authorities that he had shot his father within the head, and claimed to have taken his mom and siblings hostage.
The caller additionally stated he had a handgun and had poured gasoline over the home and wished to set the property on fireplace.
Police say they surrounded the deal with the caller had given, and had been getting ready to make contact with the suspect reportedly inside when Mr Finch got here to the door.
They stated one spherical was launched by officers after the 28-year-old didn’t adjust to verbal orders to maintain his fingers up, and appeared to maneuver his fingers towards his waist a number of occasions.
Police say Mr Finch was later discovered to be unarmed, and was pronounced useless at an area hospital. A search discovered 4 of his relations inside, none of them useless, injured or taken hostage.
His household informed native media that he was not concerned in on-line gaming.
- What number of die in US police shootings?
- The statistics behind US gun violence
- The false reporting of emergencies, with the intention to try to get a Swat (Particular weapons and techniques) group response to a location
- It has been linked to disputes within the on-line gaming neighborhood
- Perpetrators usually disguise their quantity or name non-emergency native numbers to keep away from being recognized
“The irresponsible actions of the prankster put individuals and lives in danger,” stated Wichita Police Division Deputy Chief Troy Livingston.
“The incident was a nightmare for everybody concerned, together with the household and our police division.
Different tales which will curiosity you:
“Because of the actions of a prankster, we have now an harmless sufferer. Had the false police name not been made, we might not have been there.
“We do not see it as a joke, it isn’t a prank. It heightened the notice of the officers, and we predict it led to this lethal encounter.”
US media stories dispute over a sport led to 1 gamer threatening one other with a “swatting”, who then gave the primary gamer a faux deal with. That deal with was then reportedly given to a 3rd individual, a identified on-line “swatter”, who allegedly made the emergency calls.
UMG Gaming, the web platform the place the Name of Obligation sport was being performed competitively for a small money wager, launched an announcement saying they might work with the investigating authorities.
Tyler Barriss, 25, was arrested by police in Los Angeles on Friday in relation to the investigation.
Native stories say Mr Barris had beforehand been charged with making bomb threats to an area tv station in 2015.
Social media accounts reportedly linked to the incident have been suspended after a sequence of posts had been made in regards to the taking pictures.

I got it from my new friend. Thank for involving me in ur project dear Restu Kilau Cahaya 😉
Lucia means light (Latin). Nancy means grace/favour (Hebrew/French). i’m d light of grace 🙂 what about you?
*additional info (taken from here)
1.Saint Lucia is an island in the Caribbean. It was named after Saint Lucy (Lucia) of Syracuse. Saint Lucia enjoys a high degree of popularity in Scandinavian countries, where her feast day is celebrated every December 13th. Her connection to light is considered particularly important in these northern countries that receive so little sunlight in the winter months. It was the most popular name in Spain in 2006
2.Nancy is a city in north-eastern France. Famous bearers include US politician Nancy Pelosi, Nancy (Anne) Reagan, wife of former American president Ronald Reagan, and singer Nancy Sinatra. In ‘Oliver Twist’ by Charles Dickens, Nancy is the lover of the murderous Bill Sykes. Nancy Drew is a popular detective in children’s literature. Nancy can be a name given to an effeminate man.

India Yamaha Motor achieves 10 Million Production milestone in India
Chennai, May 14, 2019: India Yamaha Motor (IYM) Pvt Ltd., the Japanese two-wheeler manufacturer today announced the production achievement of 10 million units in India. IYM achieved this feat since it began its operations in India in 1985. IYM’s three manufacturing facilities at Surajpur, Faridabad and Chennai jointly contributed to the overall production achievement of the company till date. The 10 millionth product rolled out at this ceremony was Yamaha’s best-selling motorcycle model FZS-FI Version 3.0 from its Chennai factory. The event witnessed the presence of senior management members from Yamaha Motor Co., Ltd., Japan, Yamaha Motor India Group of Companies, Mitsui & Co. Ltd., Vendor park companies, employees and employee representatives.
On this occasion, the company achieved another major accomplishment of producing 5 million units alone in last seven years between 2012 & 2019. The scooter models in this period contributed to 44 percent of the overall production with ‘Fascino’ being the major contributor. Out of the 10 Million units produced till date, 80 percent units were manufactured at the North Location which is the Surajpur & Faridabad facility and 20 percent units were manufactured at the South location which is the Chennai facility. Also, the motorcycle models contributed to 77.88 lakh units whereas the scooter models contributed to 22.12 lakh units.
“The journey for Yamaha has been quite exciting all these years. We have received phenomenal response from our customers from across the country. This landmark achievement is a testimony of our growing popularity and demand for our products which are exciting, stylish and sporty. This would not have been possible without the support of our employees, dealer partners, suppliers and vendors. They have played a key role and have extended their support throughout in line with the company’s business direction to achieve this important milestone. Going forward, we will continue to excite our customers and empower their lives through world class products and services”, said Mr. Motofumi Shitara, Chairman, Yamaha Motor India Group of Companies.
In its journey from the year 1985 to 2019, the company witnessed several landmark moments in production. The first major milestone was achieved in 1999 when the Surajpur factory hit the 1 Million Unit Production Milestone. Thirteen years later i.e. in 2012, the 5 Million Unit Production Milestone was achieved at the same factory. Another key breakthrough was achieved in 2016 when IYM reached the One Million Production Milestone for its scooters in India since the launch of its first scooter model Ray in 2012. Now, 7 years down line, the company with the support of its new production facility at Chennai and the wider product portfolio has successfully achieved the 10 Million units Production mark.
Since the establishment of Chennai factory in the year 2015, it has played a key role in the overall production strategy. With a production capacity of 4.5 lakh units in 2015 to 9 lakh units in 2019, the Chennai factory is leading the way for IYM in terms of meeting the production targets of the company every year. In last 5 years, the Chennai factory along with Surajpur & Faridabad factory have together met their production targets from 7.40 lakh units in 2014 to 10.2 lakh units in 2018. Alongside, the figures mentioned are also inclusive of the company’s exports volume.

This document is offered to schools as a skills progression in Mathematics. Under each aspect of mathematics, it sets out identifiable signposts along the early, first, second and the beginnings third level Curriculum for Excellence continuum of experiences and outcomes.
The document is presented in two formats (with identical content). The specific rationale for each is attached to the relevant document.
This should not be seen as restrictive or overly demanding. The need for revisiting earlier experiences should not be overlooked. With this in mind, the overlap between CfE levels is intentional. Each aspect in maths is expanded in a proposed chronology but users must look to exploit links between aspects and feel able to move between them as interdisciplinary projects dictate.
Progression needs to take into account the number range within which a child can solve problems and the sophistication of the strategies used. Therefore, the Stages of Early Arithmetical Learning (SEAL) and linked progressions feature highly in the number aspects. Support with SEAL and related progressions will be available through East Lothian’s CPD programme and supporting website https://sites.google.com/a/www.edubuzz.org/east-lothian-number-signposts/ from August 2011.
There is a potential recording strip running through each document that schools may use to record/track progress as they see fit.
We hope that you will see this as “work in progress” and feel able to adapt the signposts to suit your school, class and group needs.
If you work with either version of the document in school session 2011 – 2012 and personalise it to meet you school context, please upload you final version to the cluster moderation folders on Education Exchange. A revised version of the document – taking account of feedback – will be available in August 2013.

Private Region Network Definition From Pc Magazine Encyclopedia
The principal WPAN technologies is Bluetooth, launched by Ericsson in 1994, which gives a maximum throughput of 1 Mbps more than a maximum variety of about thirty metres. Laptop or computer networks can be characterized in the term of the geographic region they occupy and the purpose of the network within this geographic location. A big organization may well have distinct sorts of centralized storage, not all of which really should be accessible to all users of the nearby area network inside the organization. The PAN can access any networks but can only be accessed by authorized networks. Communication inside a piconet occurs straight over the a single-hop hyperlink between a master and a slave slaves can not communicate straight.
The network diagrams designed with ConceptDraw PRO are vector graphic documents and are offered for reviewing, modifying, and converting to a variety of formats (image, HTML, PDF file, MS PowerPoint Presentation, Adobe Flash or MS Visio XML). Then all issues are rated on a Likert scale to decide their value to the future of personal area networks, once more with comments to justify their rating. A dwelling region network, or HAN, is a form of PAN particularly made for household use.
Mesh topologies retain a fairly fixed routing infrastructure, using a simplified version of the Ad-hoc On-demand Distance Vector (AODV) routing scheme proposed for ad-hoc networks RFC3561 Cluster topologies have the benefit that coordinators and routers may sleep periodically to extend battery life, whereas their counterparts in mesh networks need to keep continual availability.
The technology ZigBee (also recognized as IEEE 802.15.four) can be applied to connect devices wirelessly at a quite low cost and with tiny power consumption, which tends to make it particularly effectively-suited for being straight integrated into little electronic appliances (like property appliances, stereos, and toys). … Continue reading >>>

Technologies Developed For Delivering Versatile Wide Location Networks With SDN
A international region network (GAN) refers to a network composed of distinct interconnected networks that cover an unlimited geographical location. A metropolitan region network (MAN) is a network that connects two or a lot more regional location networks or campus area networks collectively but does not extend beyond the boundaries of the instant town/city. A Metropolitan Area Networks bridges a quantity of ‘Local Area Networks’ with a fiber-optical links which act as a backbone, and gives solutions equivalent to what Internet Service Provider (ISP) provide to Wide Region Networks and the Web. The main aim of a campus area network is to facilitate students accessing net and university sources.
In order to realize this, these networks will have to be interconnected by way of peering arrangements, and as a result the GSM network is a actually international a single. WAN is made up of two or more Local Region Networks (LANs) or Metropolitan Location Networks (MANs) that are interconnected with each other, hence customers and computer systems in a single location can communicate with users and computers in other locations. On a ‘Local Location Network’ data transfer speeds are higher than WAN and MAN that can extend to a ten. Mbps (Ethernet network) and 1. Gbps (Gigabit Ethernet).
INTERNETWORK: Internetworking is the approach of connecting two or extra distinct computer system networks or network segments via a prevalent routing technology. WANs are regularly constructed applying high-priced leased lines exactly where with each end of the leased line a router is connected to extend the network capability across web sites. A Nearby Area Network (LAN) is a network that is restricted to smaller physical regions e.g. a nearby office, school, or property. Wireless LANS use spread spectrum technologies to allow communication among numerous devices in a limited region.
These many forms … Continue reading >>>
International Wide Region Networks
A technique and apparatus for transmitting class 1, two, or three fax image data streams more than World-wide-web Global Area Networks is shown. Usage, trust levels and access rights typically differ in between these varieties of network – for instance, LANs have a tendency to be developed for internal use by an organization’s internal systems and workers in individual physical locations (such as a building), though WANs may connect physically separate parts of an organization to every single other and may include connections to third parties.
A metropolitan area network (MAN) is a network that connects two or much more neighborhood location networks or campus location networks together but does not extend beyond the boundaries of the instant town/city. A Metropolitan Region Networks bridges a number of ‘Local Area Networks’ with a fiber-optical links which act as a backbone, and provides services similar to what World wide web Service Provider (ISP) supply to Wide Location Networks and the World wide web. The principal aim of a campus area network is to facilitate students accessing world wide web and university resources.
Students can begin an assignment in their classroom, save portion of it on a public access location of the network, then go to the media center just after college to finish their perform. Apart from these identified sorts, three other variables also help in deciding the kind of the network installed or present in a spot. Wide Region Network is a pc network that covers fairly bigger geographical location such as a state, province or nation.
The defining qualities of LANs, in contrast to WANs (wide area networks), consist of their larger information transfer rates, smaller geographic range, and lack of a have to have for leased telecommunication lines. A switch normally has several ports, with the intention getting that … Continue reading >>>

Exceptional food habits can help you to maintain healthy teeth Dental surgery insurance but beware of sugary foods! It is more dangerous to break teeth because of this.
Destruction of the teeth is caused by two types of bacteria- “mutans streptococci and lactobacilli “-those part of the plaque, a sticky layer of bacteria and leftover food that forms the tooth.

Some types of sugar are more accessible to become acidic or more comfortable to apply to the teeth, breaking the plaque on the teeth. Plates that have not been removed can harden and become calculus, or tartar, between the teeth and gums.

Powerful quake rocks Japan; hundreds hurt
By Associated Press
Published September 26, 2003
TOKYO - A strong quake with a magnitude of 8 rocked the northern Japan island of Hokkaido early today, injuring more than 243 people, knocking out power, derailing a train and touching off an industrial fire.
There were no immediate reports of deaths directly caused by the quake in the hours after the temblor that forced the evacuation of some 41,000 people and left some 16,000 homes blacked out.
The government warned residents to avoid coastal areas due to the possibility of tsunami, or ocean waves caused by seismic activity.
The quake struck at 4:50 a.m., cracking roads, capsizing fishing boats and causing the roof of a local airport to partly cave in. The temblor, centered in the Pacific Ocean about 60 miles off Hokkaido's eastern shore, had a magnitude of 8, Japan's Central Meteorological Agency said.
An earthquake of that magnitude is capable of causing tremendous damage. The meteorological agency said the earthquake was 36 miles under the seabed.
An aftershock of magnitude 7 followed shortly after 6 a.m., the U.S. Geological Survey said from Golden, Colo. Another aftershock was reported at 8 a.m. but its magnitude was not immediately known.
Japan's Central Meteorological Agency initially estimated the quake's magnitude at 7.8, but later revised that to 8.0.
The government warned local residents to avoid coastal areas due to the possibility of tsunami, or ocean waves caused by seismic activity. The meteorological agency said tsunami as high as 3 feet had hit the city of Kushiro.
The quake was focused off Hokkaido's eastern shore. It was strong enough to rock buildings on the island and shake books and other objects off shelves.
Japan's public broadcaster NHK reported that most of the injuries were caused by falling shelves and other toppled objects. One 70-year-old woman suffered a broken leg while trying to leave her house through a window, it said.
A fire started at an industrial plant in the city of Tomakomai, but no workers were reported injured, said Hokkaido prefectural police official Kuniyoshi Omori.
NHK showed giant flames and black plumes of smoke pouring from the site, which police said belonged to Idemitsu Co. Streams of water were aimed at the flames.
Omori said one person was injured when a local train carrying about 39 passengers derailed. Kushiro airport was closed temporarily after part of a roof caved in, and several roads were blocked by landslides, NHK said.
Hiroaki Tanaka, a Kushiro fire department official, said 50 people were treated there for bruises and broken bones. Hokkaido government official Hiroyuki Nakao said 31 people were injured, two of them seriously, in towns outside Kushiro.
NHK said a man cleaning up broken glass in a street was hit by an oncoming car and died, but there were no other immediate reports of deaths.
Huge cracks forced the closure of local highways, and blackouts of wide swaths of the island were reported. Regional airports also were closed for inspection.
Hokkaido Electric Power Co. official Yoshihiro Akiyama said it was unclear when power could be restored to the homes, mostly in the vicinity of Kushiro.
Television footage showed an office where books were knocked off shelves, and desks and computers swayed back and forth as the quake hit.
"We are now trying to collect information on the extent of the damage," local official Sadayuki Kano said. "There are no reports of other major damage."
The meteorological agency said the earthquake was focused 36 miles under the seabed.
In September 1923, a magnitude 8.3 quake hit Tokyo and Yokohama, killing at least 140,000.
In January 1995, a magnitude 7.2 temblor in Kobe killed more than 6,000 people.
Thursday's quake struck in the Pacific Ocean, about 65 miles south-southwest of Kushiro and 495 miles north-northeast of Tokyo, said John Minsch, a USGS geophysicist.
Hokkaido is the northernmost and most sparsely populated of Japan's major islands. Sapporo is the prefecture's capital.
Japan is one of the world's most earthquake-prone countries. It sits atop four tectonic plates, slabs that move across the earth's surface.

We've been down at my mom's house in Florida the last few days. And though the wireless is fixed, I had no inclination in the heat and humidity for work of any kind, so sorry for the lack of posting during that time. We're now at Tampa Airport, waiting for our delayed flight home. Last time we flew home from down here, our Jet Blue flight was canceled, so it's the second consecutive snafu courtesy of that airline. Hopefully, we won't meet a similar fate!
Anyway, went online via the airport's free wireless service, and saw an email with a link to an article on Bloodhorse.com with the subject line Hayward Addresses Criticism of NYRA. Eagerly clicking on, I got the following message:
This domain is blocked.Hmmm....that seems a little harsh, doesn't it, especially considering the billboards I saw on the way here for the nearby Hard Rock Casino featuring blackjack, roulette and slots. (I can't access their website here either.) Not like this is Mormon country around here or anything. A similar foray to the Form's site met with similar results, so so much for passing the time handicapping tomorrow's races. However, I was able to access an article on Hayward's remarks on the Wall Street Journal's site. Because, after all, playing the stock market is NOT gambling, right?
Site blocked. www.bloodhorse.com is not allowed on this network.
This site was categorized in: Gambling
Hayward defended the executive raises criticized last week by the state Budget Director Robert Megna.
The 3 percent raises that took effect in January were justified because the executives haven't had raises in three years, while their health insurance payments have doubled over that time,Personally, I think that there wasn't really a significant issue here, and that Hayward should have just have left it at that. Sometimes, when one replies to petty accusations they can end up sounding petty themselves. I'm sure that nobody wants to hear anyone complain about their health insurance costs, and not all of us have gotten raises to cover them. Besides, the state was some $10 billion in the hole before the budget was passed, and I don't recall anyone demanding the details of Megna's salary (though it is public record...he makes $178,000 as the Budget Director, vs. $127,000 as Commisioner of Tax and Finance in 2008).
Hayward cited some of the challenges the organization has faced, including an overall decline in interest in racing and last December's collapse of New York City's off-track betting operation, a move that left NYRA being owed some $28 million. He said NYRA reduced its operating expenses from $146 million in 2009 to $142.7 million last year.
"NYRA hasn't had a profit since 2002," Hayward said. "I don't think the raises should be determined necessarily by profit alone." [WSJ]
More significantly in my view, was Hayward's succinct response to Megna's assertion that he couldn't see how NYRA could make a profit even with revenues from slots. "We will definitely be in the black in 2012." NYRA expects to lose some $11.7 million this year.
- Well, if I can't access a "gambling" site here, the morals police may accost me if I dare write about same-sex marriage here. Suffice to say that its an issue whose time as come, and I think its legalization in New York will serve to hasten its spread. While the four Republicans in the Senate whose votes put it over the top - Sens. Roy McDonald, Stephen Saland, Mark Grisanti, and James Alessi (their websites are blocked here - This site was categorized as: pornography and perversion) - deserve full praise - as does, though more grudgingly on my part, Majority Leader Dean Skelos for allowing it to come to a vote (not doing so would have been a crass slap at the democratic process that conservatives claim to know and love), there were ample financial inducements for them to do so which they hope will soften any political implications. The Times had a great article about the whole process over the weekend (presented here via the Boston Globe for those of you who may not be able to access the Times these days.
And, of course, Governor Cuomo was the driving force behind the whole thing. No question that there was a fair amount of arm twisting on his part. There were reports of several meetings between he and Skelos. No doubt that he reminded the Majority Leader of his own soaring approval ratings and the fact that the unwritten rule that governors don't get involved in state Senate campaigns is just that - unwritten, and a rule made to be broken.
OK, that's about it from Tampa, time to hit the bar (as the flight as just been delayed by an additional eight minute, time for another shot). Speak to you when we get back.

The pitch came Monday morning. The Festival of Children Foundation and The Happiness Project, two local charities, would be throwing a Christmas party for kids who live in foster care or homeless shelters and motels with their families. It would be a party just for them at South Coast Plaza after stores closed Friday night.
Would I like to cover it?
Sure, I’d been covering homeless issues in Costa Mesa, my beat, for a couple of months and this would be a fun and happy story, especially to record kids’ reactions to presents, games and Santa.
Would I be interested in dressing up as a costumed character for the kids?
What do costumed characters do? I asked The Current’s photo editor, Dave Creamer.
Scare kids? he suggested.
Clearly, I was going to need some better advice. I turned to some experts.
First, I asked my friend, Fillup Guiry. A jack-of-all-trades for Bakersfield’s minor league baseball team, his job sometimes involves wearing a dragon costume at Blaze games.
“All you need to remember is that nobody can see who you are. Be real loose. Jangly. Tap into your inner-cartoon. And, really, don't be too cool for school. Act dumb. Big waves. Large hand shakes.”
OK, more helpful.
Next, I called Tim Klega at Knott’s Berry Farm. Klega has trained costumed characters for 30 years. He’s also donned the costumes himself – everything from animals to human characters to aliens – and performed all over the world.
“I’m in charge over here of all the things big-headed and big-footed,” Klega said on the phone.
Klega talks very fast, and is very excited. He’s seemingly the perfect person for his job.
“First of all, stay hydrated,” Klega advised. “Even though you may be inside an air-conditioned building, it can get very hot.”
Playing a costumed character is like being an athlete. Stretch. Maintain flexibility. Warm up your muscles. Eat a meal, but nothing too heavy.
For training at Knott’s, Klega draws on all sorts of research or, as he calls it, source material. How does the character move in cartoons? What is the character’s personality?
I did a little research. According to the Calico Critters website, my character, Bell Hopscotch Rabbit, is the daughter of the four-rabbit nuclear family. She’s “a big fan of the outdoors. She enjoys camping, hiking and boating in the summer and skiing and snowboarding in the winter.”

“Your website should be 100% focused on signing up strangers to give you permission to market to them.”
Seth Godin in this book elucidates the idea that why no one in today’s world is concerned about TV commercials and flyers.
It also explains that in the noisy market today, the most effective way to market your products/ services is to establish a relationship with the customer.
Permission Marketing brings out a whole other side of marketing. The basic strategy is to initiate a relationship with a potential customer but with their due permission.
Once a relationship is established, the customer tends to share more information with you that can be used for making your campaigns more effective and personalized.
Through this, the company is provided with more useful information on the customer like their browsing behavior and purchasing patterns.
“The heart of Permission Marketing is giving the stranger a reason to pay attention, while Interruption Marketers hold people hostage.”
The philosophy proposed in the book is that with Permission Marketing, a company can acquire more customers, a wider range of audiences, and an increase in the frequency of contact with a customer.
The customer also accepts and encourages these contacts because they are facilitated with benefits for the same. Seth Godin shines a light on the Five Levels of Permission Marketing. Starting from the lowest (least effective) to the highest (most effective)
1. Situation Permission
This is the circumstance when a customer allows a business to assist them in making a purchase or completing the transaction process.
2. Brand Trust
This is where the customer allows the business to keep fulfilling their needs by a minimal ‘shopping around’. At this stage, the customer trusts the brand.
3. Personal Relationships
The customers in this case permit a business to market to them because they know someone within that organization.
4. Points Permission
This is when the customer now has given full permission to the business for selling products to them. In the process, collecting data from them in turn for prizes and redeemable points.
Here, there are two parts to this theory, first is the Points liability model, where each point has an actual value for the customer and equivalent cost for the business. Second is the Points chance model, where the customer receives chances to win prizes by purchasing more from the business or giving them more useful information.
5. Intravenous Permission
Godin explains, “This is what you’ve got going when you’re in the intensive care unit with a needle in your arm and a bag of medicine dripping into your veins…Your doctor has your written permission to inject just about anything he wants into your IV bag. Not only can he select and administer the drug, but he then can charge you for the treatment and fully expect that you’ll pay for it.”
This means that now the business is an integral part of the customer’s organization.
Permission Marketing by Seth Godin is a book saturated with ideas, case studies, insights, and actionable techniques for the marketing world. It can be used to expand your business reach with a whole new perspective.

If you think your pet is sick or injured and you’re not sure what to do, contact us at 780-423-9111 at any time of the day or night.

The most severe and life-threatening emergencies are managed in our critical care unit, and the trained staff work closely to provide the best patient care and treatment.

We are fully staffed and available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Our emergency teams are trained to assess and treat pets that become ill or experience life-threatening emergencies when their family veterinarians are unavailable. Common emergencies include being hit by a car, falling from heights, profuse vomiting or diarrhea, difficulty breathing, seizures, and toxin ingestion. While some patients can be treated and released the same day, many must be admitted for further stabilization. Patients with life-threatening illnesses or injuries are admitted to our critical care unit for close monitoring and advanced life-support measures.

The staff at VetEmerg Hospital understands that there may be a time when you, as a pet owner, are faced with the painful decision of choosing the amount of life-saving measures to offer your beloved pet. Unexpected trauma and serious illness make these decisions all the more difficult.
As in human medicine, there are various levels of resuscitation efforts. These efforts can be minimal or extensive and will depend on your pet’s medical condition and quality of life, your personal wishes, and what is financially possible in your particular situation.
We would like you to be aware of these resuscitation options so you can continue to make decisions that are in the best interest of your pet. Depending on your pet’s condition, you may be asked to select a life support option in case he or she requires hospitalization.

Amazing Experience with Team Kilimanjaro
It was a dream of my parents and I to climb Kilimanjaro together and I was very fortunate that we ended up with Team Kilimanjaro. My 65+ year old parents were able to summit thanks to the amazing guidance we received. Simon and John were our guides and were extremely knowledgeable, professional, and encouraging. As a doctor I was unsure how much to expect our guides to know about acute mountain sickness, and I was very impressed to find out how much expertise these guys have. The porters were great, loving, and welcoming. I cannot recommend them enough.
We did a 7 day MACHAME route, and Simon made a very appropriate change to our itinerary. We summitted during the day on Day 5, so that we could take our time, and get to the peak when no one else was there (if you start your summit at midnight, you'll be up at the peak with all the people doing the same). We then split up our descent.
Again, I cannot say enough good things about the experience we had with Team Kilimanjaro, you will be in very safe hands.

Prep Time: 25 minutes, plus 1 hour + 25 minutes Rise time
Total Time: 2 hours, 15 minutes
This Dairy-Free Wool Roll Bread with Strawberries is a healthier option to the hottest bread trend — Wool Roll Bread. Completely soft, fluffy, and showcases a beautiful outward slit design that when baked, looks like actual wool. This bread is the perfect Spring season baking must-have and comes rightly rolled with a natural strawberry jam filling that adds a nice bit of sweetness in every bite. Perfect for breakfast or as a nice in between snack.
- 1 ¼ cup Califia Farms Original Oatmilk, at room temp.
- 5 cups All-purpose flour
- 1 packet Rapid Rise Yeast
- 2 Tablespoons organic cane sugar
- ¼ cup warm water
- ½ teaspoon sea salt
- Pinch of cinnamon
- ¼ cup vegan butter, melted + cooled until warm
- 1/3 cup strawberry preserve
- 1 Tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
- 2 Tablespoons Califia Farms Original Oatmilk, for brushing
- Start by combining the yeast and sugar in the bowl of an electric mixer and then slowly pouring in the warm water, whisking everything together until well combined and it begins to look ‘foamy’. Allow 10 minutes for the mixture to sit and the yeast to activate (It'll become completely foamy when done right).
- Add in the Oatmilk and melted butter to the yeast and whisk until well combined.
- Next, combine the all-purpose flour, cinnamon, and sea salt to the wet ingredients and (with a hook attachment) mix on low-speed until well combined and it begins to form like dough.
- Increase the speed to medium-high and knead the dough for 5-10 minutes until the dough ball becomes smooth and elastic and dough springs back when lightly pressed with 2 fingers. NOTE: If dough is too sticky, add 1 Tablespoon of flour at a time until texture is achieved!
- Once dough ball is perfectly kneaded, add it to a lightly greased bowl (using 1 Tablespoon olive oil) and cover with plastic wrap. Let it sit and rise for 1 hour or until it doubles in size.
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit and lightly grease (using olive oil) a 9-inch round cake baking pan.
- Next, lightly flour a flat surface and place the dough on it, slightly kneading the dough onto the table before forming a loaf-like rectangular shape. Cut the dough into 5 pieces and using one piece, gently knead it using your hands so that it begins to soften and loosen up.
- Using a rolling-pin, roll out that piece into a flat rectangle and then using a pastry cutter or sharp knife, cut one half of the dough into ‘mini slit-like cuts’ vertically (about 1 quarter inch or so). NOTE: Try not to make the dough too thin or else rolling it up will be hard to do!
- On the uncut side of the dough, add 1 Tablespoon of strawberry preserve/jam and then gently fold in the sides of the dough, before tightly rolling it up (long-ways) into a full roll. Repeat steps 7-9 until all 5 pieces are filled and rolled tight.
- Once done, carefully place each roll into the prepared round cake pan, ensuring that you line them around the pan in a circular pattern, leaving the center empty.
- Then, lightly brush the tops with Oatmilk and placing plastic wrap over the baking pan and letting them rise again (for another 25 minutes).
- Once the rolls have doubled in size (once again!) or have gotten significantly larger, bake them for 20-25 minutes or until the tops are golden brown and the bread forms one large beautiful round shape.
- Remove the wool roll bread from the oven and wait 15-20 minutes or so (until it completely cools), before removing it from the pan and pulling it apart to enjoy!

I studied Doctrine and covenants 58:26-28 this morning and on how we are given the power to make righteous choices and how Heavenly Father expects us to bring about good on our own, to have initiative, not just to be missionary puppets controlled by His spirit:
Short missionary story: A woman named H (she's from Africa) haha just kidding, she's from China, who we have met with a few times had to drop us because her husband didn't like her meeting with us (even though he's never met us). But we told her we would never want to come in between them. She cried and told us how much closer she is to God because of us and how we helped her get back on track because she hadn't been to church in several weeks until we started meeting with her. She told us how grateful she was for us and got our emails so we could stay in touch. I think this is the first person to drop us who didn't want to. It was really sad to say goodbye to her, but incredible to see how her faith had increased.
I love being a missionary!
Love you!!! I'm out of time, but I'll get a letter in the mail for you today

Michael has been a Trustee since 2002, is a member of the Library Committee and a library volunteer. A keen ornithologist, he also has a passion for the history of natural history which led to producing a paper on ‘Thomas Robson – The Forgotten Bird Man’ (NHSN Transaction Vol. 75 2013). Michael is also one of the Directors of the Tyne and Wear Heritage Forum and Chairman of the Friends of Saltwell Park both heavily committed to community involvement and environmental awareness. He also leads guided bird walks for various organisations including The Land of Oak and Iron, RSPB and a variety of local community and school groups.
“I have always been fascinated by the history of our Society. The commitment, dedication and knowledge of past members is reflected in the rich collections held in our incredible library and archives. This resource has always been an inspiration for members over the years and I believe is instrumental in developing our modern-day naturalists in the North East. I’m convinced the commitment, dedication and knowledge of our current members will also play a key role in natural history education and research especially as we deliver our ‘Towards 2029’ strategy.”

oQeySites is an international team of professionals providing PHP, Flash, Java and HTML5 solutions. We are mainly developing WordPress plug-ins that make it easy to customize and enhance its possibilities, but we are not limited to. We are working to build universal Flash | HTML5 solutions that look and behave natively under different OS’es, including mobile versions of Windows, Android and iOS, browsers and gadgets like the latest Apple’s iPhone / iPod Touch and iPad devices wich are well known for their incompatibility with flash applications. When Apple announced that iOS devices won’t support any flash players, many developers were disappointed and gave up on using the most advanced cross-platform technology of delivering rich Web content. We thought that’s wrong… Destroying an old system without providing something better as a replacement – isn’t good at all. HTML5 is not yet a standard, lots of people are still using browsers that won’t support the HTML5 language. And even if every single device in the world would become HTML5 compatible, it is not yet a flash technology replacement due to its strong limitations. So, why should we give up on using flash for the 0.9% of the non flash / HTML5 capable browsers that are currently accessing our websites? Some of us chose Flash, others chose HTML5, but we kept working together and we’ve built a hybrid system to let people choose – Flash or HTML5 while browsing the same website. We are also working on Flash content indexing technologies, which make it attractive for all SEO concerned clients. We work with highly professional design agencies, so if you need a stylish and modern website, a custom gallery, a video, a slideshow plugin or just a custom built plugin for WordPress, we are open to serve you.

The temperature today has varied between -1 C and 0 C. Just below, or at, freezing point. And it's been foggy for the entire day too. Not great visibility, and rather chilly conditions for cycling.
However, the cycle paths have no ice and us cyclists are over here on the cycle path instead of mixed in with the cars over there.
The result is that there are as many cyclists as on any other day. i.e. lots of them.
This includes those three children riding along beside each other in this photo (one holding her friend's handlebars as they go along together) as well as the adults following behind.
In circumstances like this, the enhanced subjective safety of a separate cyclepath makes a huge difference to whether adults will cycle - or let their children cycle without supervision.
There are other posts about cycling in winter.
Come and see the conditions in this country. Take a holiday or a Study Tour. If you want to experience it in winter, come on our Winter Warmer weekend.
A better alternative for Lambeth North junction?

During 2019/20 teachers from two Secondary schools and four Primary Schools plus a local Advisor, worked together in a collaborative group to see how the careful use of colour could enhance teaching and learning, and also how poor colour consideration could at times confuse learners.
The premise for group from their experience was that when maths is represented visually, colour can have significant impact. It can both support and undermine understanding depending on how it is used.
The group considered three different contexts:
board work, and
Teachers involved, from EYFS to post-16, made explicit decisions about the use of colour and considered how they could use colour to draw attention to mathematical structure. They also identified potential issues arising when colour is present but not consciously considered by the teacher.

Vowing that the Army is committed to safeguarding health and the environment, Dugway Proving Ground's commander, Col. Jan Van Prooyen, signed an agreement Tuesday saying his post will obey hazardous-waste laws from now on.
In exchange, the state agreed not to fine Dugway for what the state maintained was eight years of violating such laws. Fines could have been imposed for up to $10,000 per day per violation.The agreement ended several years of negotiations about what measures were needed to control hazardous wastes at the desert post, which tests weapon and defense systems for the military.
The state had contended that Dugway violated the law by burning hazardous wastes since 1980 without proper permits; impounding rinse water and liquid residue from tests of chemical weapons without permits; and storingsome hazardous wastes on base for long periods of time without permits.
Dugway spokesman Kathleen B. Whitaker has said the Army tried all along to comply with rules. She said that in 1980, Dugway was given permission to operate as a "small waste generator." But following a state inspection in 1986, the state contended Dugway was a large waste generator and out of compliance.
With Tuesday's agreement, the Army submitted a list of post operations that require permits; the treatment, storage and disposal facilities used; and the types and quantities of waste generated. The state in turn gave Dugway interim permission to operate with hazardous wastes.
Dugway is expected to provide more detailed plans for the handling of waste within a year. It will be subject to state approval.
The agreement was considered important enough by Van Prooyen that he flew by helicopter from Dugway to sign the document at the Cannon Health Building in Salt Lake City. He told state health officials that the Army is expending more resources to protect health and the environment.
Signs of that include Dugway's environmental management program. It has grown from one part-time employee 10 years ago to the current Environmental Management Division with 10 environmental engineers, ecologists and assistants.
That division's $3.2 million budget next year anticipates such projects as replacing underground fuel tanks, asbestos removal and hazardous waste sampling and disposal. The base is also planning to spend $10 million from 1989 to 1994 to "restore the effects remaining from testing before 1980 when environmental protection was not mandated," according to an Army press release.

The "Egg of Life" symbol is composed of seven circles taken from the design of the Flower of Life. The shape of the Egg of Life is said to be the shape of a multi-cellular embryo in its first hours of creation.
Flower of Life - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia --- and other geometric figures (note: read through ahead of time, go through and digest information to share with young ones; sit along-side older ones to discuss potential sensibility issues)
The "Seed of Life" is formed from seven circles being placed with sixfold symmetry, forming a pattern of circles and lenses, which act as a basic component of the Flower of Life's design. The Seed of Life is a symbol depicting the seven days of creation.

Person of Interest: "He Makes No Friends Who Never Made a 'Foe.'"
Reese is about to make an unfortunate crack about the East German swim team.
Did I forget to mention there was no Person of Interest last week? Sorry folks (said in my best John Candy from National Lampoon's Vacation voice), I'm not sure what the deal was with that. They didn't pre-empt it for the World Series but did for...Thursday night football? Crazy old world.
One of the better things about PoI is how the show has managed to throw a few curve balls when it comes to the whole good guy/bad guy thing. It isn't a 180 every time (though it threatens to go that route), but the characterization has largely been a pleasant surprise.
Last night's ep found Reese facing one of those "stare into the abyss" moments noted philosopher/linebacker Ray Nitschke once talked about. The Number of the Week this time is an old Stasi operative hunting down the men responsible for the murder of his wife. He's a guy with eerie parallels to Reese's own covert background, which we learn more about.
Our NotW is one Wallace Negel AKA Ulrich Kohl, whom we're introduced to through a phone conversation among several heavily accented fellows discussing "what he knows." Negel/Kohl also has a CIA dossier. But really, who doesn't nowadays?
It turns out Kohl fled to the USSR and went off the grid in 1987, after the death of his wife Anja in a car accident. Fortunately, Finch has a contact for pre-digital information (who looks a lot like an older Harry Shearer). Kohl and his team of East German operatives were responsible for "neutralizing" defectors before they could reveal valuable information like the horsepower of a '75 Trabant.
Reese goes to check out a cemetery plot "Negel" purchased and finds evidence that Kohl is back in action. His mission this time: avenging Anja.
Hooray! Another flashback episode. This time Reese is a wet-behind-the-ears agent back in 2006 working for something called NCS. Stanton, his attractive mentor, dubs him "Reese."
Back in the present, Kohl's first trip is to another elderly German he summarily shoots in the chest. This is (was) Hauffe, part of Kohl's team. Reese arrives shortly thereafter, using an East German mark found at the plot and tracing it here. He discovers the identities of the other two members of Kohl's team as well: fellow assassin Styler and Wernick, a forger. A German agent shows up about this time, but Reese makes short work of him and learns Kohl's next target is a Wall Street lawyer named Warner.
But he arrives too late. as Kohl has already poisoned Wernick. Reese solves his immediate interrogation needs by hijacking the ambulance, where Wernick reveals the rest of the team gave up Kohl to the Americans in exchange for new lives in the States. Anja's death was apparently arranged by the U.S Government, which doesn't make a hell of a lot of sense.
The German agent, now in police custody thanks to an "anonymous" call from Reese to Fusco, doesn't get a chance to say much before someone from the German consulate drops in to foist his shitty accent on everyone and take the agent away for immediate extradition. They call that one "the Polanski."
Kohl moves on to Styler, now "Stegan," as Finch and Reese listen in (thanks to Finch's hacking the roster of a German-American club all three belonged to).
Warner...Wernick. Styler...Stegan. These guys didn't put a lot of effort into their cover identities.
Styler drops the bomb on Kohl: Anja is still alive. The government helped her fake her death after she discovered Kohl's true profession. Styler ends up dead and Kohl bails before Reese can get to him, though he and Finch both realize he's going for Anja. They turn to the one guy who can help them find her, the about-to-be extradited German agent (who's fairly open to questioning after Reese shoots the engine out of his car).
Kohl gets to Anja's apartment to find Reese waiting. Surprisingly, he drops the younger man (though Finch gets Anja safely away). When Kohl starts torturing him, Reese casts his mind back to 2006, when "Stanton" executes two local officials who allowed a terrorist to bribe his way out of the country. After telling Reese to dispose of the bodies, she tells him there's no turning back. He's now "Mister Reese" forever and ever.
Beats "Mister Pink."
Kohl takes a break from "enhanced interrogation" and finds a picture in Anja's apartment. It's his daughter Marie. That's gotta be a gut punch.
To make a long recap longer, Anja hid her pregnancy from Kohl and faked her death, but told Marie her father was a hero. After Kohl escapes the apartment (thwarted by Fusco from killing Reese), they meet at a park where Anja asks for his forgiveness. He pulls a gun on her, forcing Reese to kill him. As it turns out, the gun wasn't loaded, he just needed Reese to end his pain.
A solid effort, I think. Very cool to bring in venerable character actor (and fellow Lost alum) Alan Dale as Kohl. It never hurts for Reese to be reminded he's not always the biggest badass on the block. Last night's episode continues what I hope will be a decent mix of standalone entries sprinkled with bigger picture "mythology" episodes. Keep 'em interested, but don't alienate potential new viewers.
Of Further Interest:
+ As movies and TV have shown us, all Germans have blond hair and speak like Sgt. Schultz. Being German myself, I can confirm this. Sorry..."zis."
+ "We have diplomatic immunity!" "I'm not a diplomat."
+ Surveillance is always useful, but sometimes you need a Barrett .50 caliber sniper rifle to get the job done.

Symmetry-induced perfect transmission and inverse magnetoresistance in cascade junctions of ferromagnet and semiconductor
National Laboratory of Solid State Microstructures and Department of
Physics, Nanjing University, Nanjing, 210093, P.R. China
Corresponding author: firstname.lastname@example.org
Revised: 9 November 2009
Accepted: 17 December 2009
Published online: 26 February 2010
Within the Landauer framework of ballistic transport, we theoretically investigate spin-dependent resonant transmission and magnetoresistance in symmetric cascade junctions of ferromagnetic metal (FM) and semiconductor (SC). It is shown that spin-up and spin-down electrons possess different bandgap structures against the Rashba spin-orbit wave vector. Due to the mirror symmetry, multiple spin-dependent perfect transmissions of electrons can be obtained within the bandgap, thereafter, spin polarization has multiple reversals. Around each resonant wave vector, high spin polarization is achieved and the electrical conductance comes from one kind of spin electrons. The resonant transmissions originate from the spin-dependent quasi-bound states at energies above the potential barriers, which are demonstrated by the electronic charge distributions in the system. Furthermore, if we change the magnetization of FM in the centre of the junctions, inverse magnetoresistance can be observed. The investigations may have potential applications in spin filters and spin switches.

ScriptBots is an Open Source Evolutionary Artificial Life Simulation of Predator-Prey dynamics, written originally by Andrej Karpathy.
The simulation can currently be found:
- as a Visual C++ Project in the Downloads section [deprecated, very old version]
- On Github :
Andrej Karpathy code (original code, now uses cmake, but mostly intended for Ubuntu dev)
David Coleman's fork with a number of changes, aimed at running the simulation distributed, on a supercomputer
Julian Hershey's fork: several independent game changes, save/load functionality
If you fork and develop something interesting, I will add it here...
Another independent but same-spirited implementation was made by Tyler here.
Below are some pictures, videos, and notes about how the simulation works, but these are by now slightly outdated. Still, I choose to leave them here because they still show the basic idea.
Bots can specialize in processing plant food or meat, and can therefore become carnivores or herbivores.
Bots can hunt each other. They can communicate by flashing colors and also shouting at each other.
Bots can choose to share food with each other. (allows for altruism)
Both sexual and asexual reproduction is implemented.
When a bot dies, food is distributed evenly to bots around the event. This leads to emergence of both scavengers and hunting packs.
Every bot has 20 sensors, 9 actuators, internal variables and "brain".
Every agent has 20 sensors that range from 0->1:
Every agent has 9 Actuators ranging from 0->1 that change over time based on brain activity
Feel free to join our Google Group below and discuss the simulation, ask questions, or post some of your own forks and improvements!

Are you considering taking your relationship to the next step? Think you are serious and secure enough to live together? If so, you may need to consider a few things about yourself and your significant other before you make the commitment. Moving in together is a huge step and can make or break your relationship. Included here are a few things to consider before you take the leap.
Have a Good Reason
Moving in together should not be an action driven by necessity. If you are unable to pay your bills by yourself, you need to address your financial status. Do not simply move in with someone because it seemed convenient and financially reasonable. Those are a few benefits of living with someone, but there is a lot more that goes into building a home together. Find a good reason you want to be with your partner 24/7 before packing boxes.
Understand the Money Situation
Many couples spend up to 45 minutes a day discussing household problems or chores. Take the time to have a good understanding of where you and your partner stand before moving in. Talk in-depth about financial readiness, bills, and rent or mortgage payments. Make sure you know who is responsible for paying which bills so you do not have fall-outs later.
Divy Up the Chores
Understand who will be responsible for which chores and hold each other accountable. Early on in a relationship, it can be kind of you to do the dishes for your partner, even if it is their responsibility. Unfortunately, you will grow tired of doing these small kindnesses for a lazy partner with no return. If everyone does their share from the beginning you will save hurt feelings and arguments later on.
Take a Trip Together
Spending an extended period of time traveling with your significant other can give you insight into how they would be to live with. If you cannot tolerate them during a flight, in a cramped hotel room, or during a roadtrip with extended hours in the car, you will not enjoy living with them 24/7. While stress does tend to be higher during travelling, it will help you get a better idea of your partner’s true colors.
Have an Exit Strategy
While no one really wants to consider what would happen if they broke up, it is something that needs to be thought about individually before you move in. You may also need to discuss who gets to keep which belongings in the apartment and who gets to keep the residence after a split.

A brave and spirited performance from the Brewers ultimately saw them go out of this season's Carling Cup at the hands of beaten play-off finalists Cardiff City. Whereas last season Albion meekly surrendered to Reading with a flurry of goals early in the game, this game was entirely different. After battling back to equalise just three minutes after going behind, through Shaun Harrad, it was not until the second period of extra time that the hosts finally stamped their authority on the game and sealed a second round place.
Brewers boss Paul Peschisolido made two changes to his line-up from Saturday's goalless draw against Oxford United. With Darren Moore not risked it was a chance for Cwmbran born Tony James to return to the centre of defence. The absence of Andy Corbett at right back caused a slight selection headache but Russell Penn switched to the full back role allowing Lewis Young to come in for his full debut on the right side of midfield.
Youngsters Jack Dyer and Garyn Preen came onto the bench after missing out on Saturday with the latter making a return to the club from which he joined Southampton at the age of twelve.
Hampered by international call-ups and injuries the home side could do nothing but field their strongest possible line-up with a host of household names lining up against the Brewers including prolific scorers Michael Chopra and Peter Whittingham. There was also a hasty debut for the Bluebirds latest signing Martin John who went straight into the side at left back.
Albion started brightly but had to be aware of the speedy counter attacks from the home side. In just the fourth minute Peter Whittingham released Jay Bothroyd down the left channel and his hopeful lobbed shot had Adam Legzdins at full stretch to push the ball wide of his far post.
Cardiff were looking for an early goal to settle any nerves, given the number of upsets in Tuesday's ties, and Chris Burke fired well over with a speculative effort when Nathan Stanton's header fell kindly for him in the sixth minute.
Bothroyd was adopting a direct approach with some strong running at the heart of Albion's defence and only a poor touch after a lovely one two with Michael Chopra allowed Legzdins to come out and gather, averting the danger. With pressure building Albion survived another skirmish in their box when a wayward defensive header by Russ Penn came out to Whittingham and his shot was deflected away by Nathan Stanton.
Cardiff made their pressure pay in the 16th minute though as Whittingham found space on the left hand side of the penalty area and with Albion looking in vain for an offside flag he squared for BOTHROYD to calmly slot the ball home from eighty yards out.
Albion though were level within three minutes. A poor ball out of defence by Anthony Gerrard, cousin of Liverpool and England captain Steven, allowed Aaron Webster to knock the ball forward for Shaun HARRAD who calmly nicked the ball over keeper Tom Heaton for his first goal of the season.
The Brewers were dealt a blow when after receiving treatment Aaron Webster had to be replaced. It meant a first appearance of the season for Jimmy Phillips, Albion's goalscorer in the Carling Cup last season at Reading.
Bothroyd was inches away from a second in the 36th minute with a rasping shot that just cleared Legzdins' crossbar and the referee was quick to book Russell Penn for blatantly pulling Chopra to the ground during the build up. Albion were needing to defend desperately at times but with Stanton in impressive form at the back the Brewers navigated their way to half time on level terms.
Half time - Cardiff City 1-1 Burton Albion
The Bluebirds made a change at the start of the second half with goalscorer Bothroyd withdrawn to be replaced by Scottish striker Ross McCormack.
The substitute was quickly involved latching onto a deep cross to the far post but his first touch deserted him, the ball running harmlessly for a goalkick.
The home side were quickly forced into a second substitution as Sam Matthews limped off with an injury to be replaced by Paul Quinn.
Cardiff fans momentarily thought they had gone backj in front on the hour mark when Tony James failed to cut out at through ball allowing McCormack to stride forward but the striker's shot, although close, rippled the side netting to the dismay of the crowd in the main stand.
In an attempt to up the tempo and make the breakthrough the home side brought on former fans favourite Jason Koumas, signed on a season long loan deal from Premiership side Wigan Athletic.
After soaking up cardiff pressure Albion almost went into the lead in the 71st minute. Good hold up play brought Adam Bolder into play and he in turn fed Young down the right hand side. The young winger whipped in a great ball that was just missed by the diving Greg Pearson and just behind him home substitute Quinn almost put through his own net. From the resulting corner a neat flick at the near post from Harrad almost crept in with home keeper Tom Heaton glad to clutch the ball.
With seventeen minutes to go Albion made their second change with former Cardiff youngster Garyn Preen given the chance to shine in place of Lewis Young.
McCormack did put the ball into the back of Albion's net in the 77th minute but home hopes were dashed again as his stooping header was ruled out by an assistant's offside flag.
The third change for the Brewers came in the 78th minute and it was another debutant, James Ellison coming on for Albion's goalscorer Shaun Harrad.
With extra time looming neither side really showed the cutting edge to suggest that the game could be won in the regulation ninety minutes. Three additional minutes signalled by the fourth official failed to inspire the two sides to score a late winner although Greg Pearson came agonisingly close to creating a shock with the last kick of the game. Jimmy Phillips worked some magic down the left and fired in a low cross that found itself at the feet of the Albion striker who tried to turn and steer the ball home but sliced it across goal.
Score at 90 minutes - Cardiff City 1-1 Burton Albion
Extra time began with the hosts in the ascendency and another excellent block from Albion's man of the match Nathan Stanton denied Michael Chopra from giving Cardiff the advantage. The Bluebirds were close again from the resulting corner kick but Gabor Gyepes could not direct his back post header inside the post.
Danny Drinkwater almost snatched a goal with a shot from the edge of the area after John McGrath failed to clear effectively but Legzdins, at full stretch, was able to watch the ball fly beyond his far post.
After a raking move across the pitch prompted by Bolder, the former Derby midfielder almost grabbed his first goal for the club picking up a return pass from Jimmy Phillips and, on the turn, scooping the ball over the post from 15 yards out.
Phillips tried his luck himself in the 102nd minute. Linking up with Paul Boertien on the left hand side the winger cut inside but failed to get enough bend on his shot to trouble Heaton.
Chopra spurned a good opportunity in the 103rd minute, racing down the centre and firing a left foot shot high and not very handsome from just outside the box.
Bolder went closer than his previous effort again after good work by Phillips and would maybe have been disappointed not to have at least forced Heaton into a save with a shot from the edge of the penalty area as the first half of extra time came to a close.
Half time (extra time) - Cardiff City 1 - 1 Burton Albion
Albion's resistance was broken in the 107th minute. Jason Koumas saw a shot blocked by Tony James on the edge of the box but the ball fell back to the midfielder. Rather than attempt another shot the former Welsh international slid a pass into the path of fellow substitute McCORMACK and he found the back of the net via the post to the dismay of Albion's defence. Three minutes later and the striker had a second firing low into the bottom corner of the net as he was allowed too much space to move forward and get his shot away.
Michael CHOPRA rounded off a rather flattering scoreline with a composed finish in the 118th minute but it was harsh on Albion who had battled to hard and did not deserve to lose by such a hefty scoreline.
BLUEBIRDS: Heaton, Rae (Koumas, 68), Gyepes, Whittingham, Chopra, Bothroyd (McCormack, 46), Burke, Gerrard, Drinkwater, John, Matthews (Quinn, 53). Substitutes: Hudson, Taiwo, Wildig, Jarvis.
BREWERS: Legzdins; Penn, Stanton, James, Webster; Young, Bolder, McGrath, Webster (Phillips, 34); Harrad, Pearson. Substitutes: Poole, Walker, Ellison, Preen, Dyer, Grocott.
Referee: Mr. M.P. Russell (Hertfordshire)
GOALS: Cardiff - Bothroyd (16), McCormack (107, 110), Chopra (118); Burton - Harrad (19)

Ghost in the Shell!
I know absolutely zip about this particular turt, but thought I'd weigh in with a reasonable explanation for why it's being handled as a lot of people seem to be interested. There are many beaches that turtles use to lay eggs that have become tourist beaches. In order to ensure the survival of the turtles these beaches sometimes have teams of volunteers who will go out at night and watch for turtles who come up the beach to lay eggs. Once laid (with the mother having returned to the sea) the eggs will be dug up and collected. They then get buried in a large enclosed sand pit in a protected sanctuary on the beach. They put a marker with the laying date next to each batch so they know when to expect hatchlings, and hatchlings will then be kept in buckets of seawater as they hatch until sunset when they will be released on the beach to swim to the sea. So it would be quite easy for someone to notice the albino hatchling and take a photo at some point before it makes it's journey to the sea.
poor thing. Doomed.
If i were to touch this or any other baby turtles shell would it be soft like a new born baby's skull "soft spot", which later hardens, or would it already be born with a hard shell?
Aww, he looks like a little ravioli.

Sexting 101: What you Need to Know as a Parent
The phenomenon of "sexting" involves people, mostly teens, taking nude pictures of themselves and sending them using their cell phones to others.

Whoever first said that "a friend in need is a friend indeed" certainly knew what she (or she) was talking about.

And, as one recent poll shows, women are most likely to confide in a friend when they are facing violence in their home. With the approach of International Friendship Day in August, it's a great time for women to get educated on how to recognize the signs of domestic violence and what to do to help a friend going through it.

My son's ESQ brand watch stopped, so I assumed that it needed a battery since it was 2 years old at Christmas. I put a new battery in and it still is stopped. It sounds like it is ticking. I can pull out the stem and push it back in, which makes the second hand twitch, but not index to the next second. My question is, is this common? Should I throw it in the trash? I have no way to test the old/new batteries. Maybe a weak new battery? I should mention that the inside workings were shiny, clean, and dry. Thanks for your advice. Mark
No, that is not common. You shouldn't have that kind of problem after 2 years either.
Try a new battery first. If that doesn't work, bring it to a jeweler and ask them to use a machine to spin the hands to dislodge any debris that might have gotten in the gears.
If it is trying to move then it might be a piece of dust that got in the movement.
Depending on the how much sentimental value, it might not be worth taking it any further than that. It will probably cost between $50 and $70 dollars to get a complete servicing.

On July 22, a former shrimping boat drifted down the Sacramento River with nobody aboard – 138 tons of uncontrolled steel riding the current.
The Saint Joseph got caught on a log before it could crash into private docks at the Sacramento Yacht Club or Stan’s Marina. Its wild ride was the latest adventure by a derelict boat on the Sacramento River, where abandoned vessels are a persistent hazard.
For years, the Saint Joseph had been moored to a dock under Sacramento’s Pioneer Bridge. It had last been fixed up in 2009 for the Sea Scouts Program – a part of the Boy Scouts – before it was taken by Global Seven Oceanic LLC to be scrapped. But the now-defunct organization never dismantled the ship.
Instead, it ended up back on the Sacramento River, where it became a hangout for homeless people.

As time passed, the boat became more decrepit. Nate Eckler, who had fixed up the St. Joseph in 2009 for the Sea Scouts, said the last time he spied the vessel it was covered in raw sewage and exposed wiring. There were signs of fires throughout, indicating that drugs had been cooked on board.
Three public safety organizations – the Sacramento Police Department, the Yolo County Sheriff’s Department and the Coast Guard auxiliary – came out on the river when the boat was reported loose. But it was Eckler and another private citizen who ended up towing the St. Joseph after it was stopped by the log.
The Saint Joseph is far from the only abandoned boat on the Sacramento River. As these boats sit, their condition worsens, making them harder to remove.
Peter Pelkofer, senior counsel for the State Lands Commission’s Abandoned Vessel Program, estimated there are around 200 abandoned boats on the water throughout the Delta area and Stockton. However, he stressed that it is difficult to pinpoint an exact number at any given time.
“It’s a moving target,” he said. “We eliminate them and they seem to pop up like mushrooms.”
In the area that the Yolo County Sheriff’s Office patrols – roughly 80 miles over the Sacramento River – there are about 10 of these abandoned vessels, said Sgt. Sam Machado of Yolo County’s boat patrol, which works alongside agencies in Sacramento County and the cities of Sacramento and West Sacramento, among others.
Nobody is eager to take responsibility for these floating junk piles.
According to both Eckler and Sgt. Matthew Davis of Yolo County, the St. Joseph is owned by the State Lands Commission. However, Jennifer Lucchesi, an officer with the commission, and Pelkofer said that is not the case.
“The ship is not under the control of the commission, but as an abandoned vessel on state sovereign waters, commission staff were attempting to remove it,” Luchessi said.
Throughout California, public and local agencies have removed 745 vessels as part of the state’s Abandoned Watercraft Abatement Fund, according to information officer Adeline Yee at the California State Parks Department. However, this statistic only includes recreational boats, as commercial boats are not covered by the fund. The total cost of removing these boats was $3.337 million dollars, for an average of $4,488 per vessel.
According to Pelkofer, the State Lands Commission is not entitled to grants from the Department of Boating and Waterways – a division of the State Parks – so it works with local agencies to remove the boats.
Not one of the three local law enforcement agencies near where the Saint Joseph went adrift – the Sacramento Police Department, the Yolo County Sheriff’s Department and the West Sacramento Police Department – said the boat was under its jurisdiction.
“It’s a keystone cop thing. Everyone has a little bit of responsibility, but nobody has the ultimate responsibility,” said Yolo County Supervisor Oscar Villegas. “Depending on the side of the river the boat was on and where it was tied up, you have lots of problems. At the end of the day, it’s still the same waterway. Someone has to step up, even if there’s some liability, to do the right thing.”
While the State Lands Commission said it attempts to remove boats as quickly as they can, boats like the Saint Joseph can often molder for a long time.
According to Yee, there are several reasons for this. The boats can be so damaged that they sink, forcing workers to temporarily patch the hulls before pumping the water out. These patched vessels often need to be towed a great distance to a marina to be hauled out, an expensive procedure. In cases like the Saint Joseph, squatters leave hazardous materials on board, so agencies must take special precautions and spend more money to avoid polluting the water.
Yet leaving the boats on the water is dangerous. According to Yee, vessels can sink just below the surface, making them difficult to see. Other boats, like the Saint Joseph, can break off their moorings and float downstream, presenting a danger for people and property on the river.
Since the Saint Joseph incident, Villegas said he has had several meetings with local law enforcement, figuring out ways to get people to handle their boats before there’s a problem, holding law enforcement accountable and keeping the Sacramento River safe.
“I think once it’s not an imminent danger, folks are much more willing to be a part of the solution,” he said. “That’s what I’m hoping is going to come from this experience.”

Dave Says: Mixing Friends and Business
Dave Ramsey - April 24, 2012
I started a partnership with my friend. What can I do to make sure our friendship is saved even if our business doesn't end up working out?
I just began a business with a friend as an LLC partnership. I know he’s honest and a hard worker, but I’m still a little scared that everything will fall apart and we’ll walk away mad at each other. We used a CPA to get a tax ID number and help us set up the company. Do you think we should pay a lawyer to help us map out the partnership agreement in writing?
Drawing up a written partnership agreement may be the only shot you’d have at walking away from this venture with your friendship still intact. But I don’t think you need to hand some lawyer a bunch of money to make it happen.
Chances are, your new business doesn’t need that level of detail. All you need is someone to help you draw up a template that answers all the “what if” questions. This template can be as simple as a list of all the things that could go wrong and the answers to those scenarios. These would be things like death, disability, moral failure, bankruptcy, etc., and what happens if any of these occur.
You know, there are hardly ever problems in a business venture when everyone’s happy and making piles of money. But it can get rough if you begin to disagree over the direction the company is taking. Or, what if personal issues make you decide you don’t want to be in business with the other person anymore?
It’s easy to go all pie-in-the-sky over these things, but you have to make plans for any and all of the worst outcomes, too.

Sant'Helena Ribolla Gialla 2017
This particular wine is made from 100% Ribolla Gialla, common in this part of Friuli. An ideal pairing with shellfish and seafood, there are aromas and flavors of green apples, lemons and tangerines, and fresh herbs, thyme especially with a nutty almond finish.
It has taken over three generations and forty years to transform a small cellar into a leading Friuli winery. It is now the biggest winery in Friuli. Their Sain'Helena's Ribolla Gialla wines merge historical tradition with innovative modern technology and practices. The family estate has 300 hectares of very prized vineyards in the Collio, Grave, and Colli Orientali del Friuli DOC zones. The Ribolla Gialla grapes were cold fermented in stainless steel with some maceration on the skins.
This is an impressive and textbook example of Ribolla Gialla. The rolling limestone and clay Venezia Giulia hills grow some of Italy’s finest and most distinctive white wines. That terroir includes sunny, high-altitude slopes sheltered by the nearby Alps to allow for long, patient ripening and deep mineral expressions. Fantinel’s killer 2017 Ribolla Gialla casts a deep straw-gold hue from the bowl followed by aromas of pear skin, peach, yellow melon, and earthy ginger. Brisk on the attack with persistent minerality, the wine conveys impressive extract and thrust on the palate with notes of green apples, pear skin, lemon balm, and menthol. Conveying a deft balance between fruit extract and minerality, the wine is ready to drink now and over the coming two years with golden trout, sauteed mushrooms, light poultry preparations, lentil soups, vegetable omelets, and lighter pasta dishes.

Biologists eager to study rescued bald eagle
Thursday, June 10 2010 @ 02:35 PM EDT
Contributed by: jkr
PHOENIX (AP) — For a moment, the 7-year-old bald eagle seemed willing to pose for pictures, his head turned to face the cameras, his eyes flashing, his beak slightly open.
But in the instant his handler let go of his talons, the mighty raptor’s demeanor changed. He raised his head, spread his wings and flew, swooping over the shores of Watson Lake in Prescott, flying in the wild for the first time since March
The eagle was released Monday by state wildlife officials after a three-month stay at a Cave Creek rehabilitation center, where he was treated for wing injuries and high lead levels in his bloodstream.
He also was fitted with a solar-powered GPS unit, about the size of a small cellphone, which will allow biologists at the Arizona Game and Fish Department to track his movements.
The eagle released will be the only one fitted with a tracking pack and the only adult, non-breeding eagle ever tracked electronically in the state.
Biologists can monitor eagles in nests, but if they’re not breeding, their movements are largely unknown.

DVD X Player Pro Editor's Review
Play any DVD from anywhere in the world with this region free tool for Windows.
Sometimes it sucks when the cool movies don't come to a retail store near you...or even anywhere in your country for that matter. When that happens, you most likely go without, as even if you could get your hands on it, you likely wouldn't be able to play it because of a differing DVD Region Code encoded on the disc. With DVD X Player, however, you don't have to worry about that. It’s an awesome video player for Windows.
DVD X Player is a DVD region free player enabling users to watch any region-coded/CSS-encrypted DVD movie on any DVD drive. With DVD X Player, you can play any DVD from any country in the world, even if you have used up your region counter and can no longer change the DVD drive's region.
DVD X Player can play DVDs from multi-regions including 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6,etc anywhere in the world. The software auto removes restrictions or copyright protection like CSS, PRC Region code, CPPM, RC, RCE, APS, UOPs, ARccOS, RipGuard, Macrovision, etc. for the life of the DVD. You get to enjoy all your DVDs. movies, videos, photos and music.
The software supports adjustable lightness, contrast, saturation, and hue color adjustments for the best possible picture quality. You can instantly zoom in or out for all movie details and enjoy in any screen size like Letter Box, Pan&Scan, and Smart Stretch.
Pro’s: Play any DVD from anywhere in the world, plays all video and audio media
Conclusion: DVD X Player is an awesome app. You can literally play any DVD from anywhere in the world on your PC regardless of where it was purchased or where you live. The software, however, is very expensive for a DVD player, and users need to consider how often they will run into or need to play DVD's from any region in the world. If you do a lot of international travelling this may be worth it to you. If not, then other apps may be a better choice.

IPOH: Police moved in fast to catch a man who abducted and molested a nine-year-old pupil near a cemetery along Jalan Slim Lama in Slim River, about 100km from here.
A description of the suspect given by the victim’s sister enabled police to catch him after a car chase.
The man had coaxed the girl into his grey Proton Wira Aeroback at about 1.30pm by promising to buy her school books near the Slim River bus station on Wednesday.
Once she got into the car, he warned her not to run away and drove to the cemetery, where he instructed her to go to a nearby hut, Tanjung Malim OCPD Supt Othman Nayan said yesterday.
“The suspect told the girl to take off her pants and shoes before molesting her.
“A few minutes later, he fled, leaving the girl on her own,” he added.
Supt Othman said a passing motorist saw the terrified girl running away at about 1.50pm and stopped to check on her before bringing her to the Slim River police station.
“The family, including the girl’s 43-year-old father, has been informed of the incident.
“The girl has been taken to the Slim River Hospital where doctors confirmed that she has not been raped,” Supt Othman said.
The victim’s 12-year-old sister, who was nearby when the suspect drove away with the girl, gave police a description of the man and his car.
Supt Othman said the man was arrested in Taman Desa Idaman Sungkai at about 2.30pm after a 20km car chase from Slim River to a housing area.
“He refused to stop and fled when we detected and approached his car in the Slim River town centre.
“He sped northwards and rammed through the tollgate at Sungkai and into a Proton Exora.
“We finally cornered him in the residential area with the help of the Tanjung Malim CID and a motorcycle patrol unit from Slim River,” he added.
Police found a woman and a boy, believed to be his wife and son, in the car.
The man has been remanded for four days while the case is being investigated under Section 363 and 354 of the Penal Code for kidnapping and molesting.

Having just returned to New York from Maputo, the capital of Mozambique, I'm reminded how lucky we are in this city to have reliable water and sanitation services. Thanks to investment in water pipes and sewers in the 19th century, diarrheal diseases that ran rife through our city a few generations ago have all but been eliminated, and we take it for granted that safe drinking water is available at the turn of a tap.
As in many other large cities across the developing world, Maputo is facing rapid growth of low income settlements and major challenges in providing the population with access to safe water and sanitation. The latest data (UNICEF/WHO 2012) show that only 77 percent of Mozambique's urban population has access to improved water sources. The situation is even grimmer when it comes to sanitation, with only 38 percent of the urban population having access to safe sanitation.
The country has one of the highest infant mortality rates in the world with 86,000 children dying before their first birthdays every year. Diarrhea is one of the leading causes of child deaths and 44 percent of children under five are undernourished.
Increased investment in providing access to safe water and improved sanitation dramatically impacts child survival. In low-income areas of cities like Maputo, that is often a complex task. High population density, transient populations, and poor quality housing are part of the problem and present challenges to those striving to improve water and sanitation infrastructure.
Often in low-income urban neighborhoods the provision of piped water to homes is simply too expensive for ordinary families to afford. One way of tackling that problem is by helping local residents band together and negotiate affordable payment plans with water service providers with the help of local NGOs.
Last week I visited the community of Costa do Sol on the northern periphery of Maputo and found that a community water users' association, ACODECOS, established with the help of WaterAid and local partner organization ESTAMOS had achieved great success in expanding the number of household water connections over a five year period, with very positive results for the health of the community, particularly children. Data given to us by the Ministry of Health showed that the number of cholera cases had dropped from 371 in 2003/4 to only 21 in 2008/9.
One reason why this was achieved was ACODECOS' successful negotiation of a reduction in the household connection fee to $50 (from Aguas de Mozambique, a private company receiving 75 percent of its investment from government) that can be paid in installments.
Local resident Francesca Nhantos (shown in the photo at the top) told me that having piped water available in the home had transformed her life. "Before we had the standpipe, a water truck came to the village once a week and we had to pay 5-7 meticais (20 cents) for 20 liters of water and we weren't sure how clean it was so we had to boil it."
As Arminda told me, other changes, such as the installation of latrines, hygiene education, the provision of drinking water and toilets in schools and the disposal of solid waste, have also helped to dramatically improve the health of the community.
With the absence of piped sewerage in densely populated low-income urban communities, disposal of fecal sludge from latrines also poses a major challenge. Last week, I visited a pilot project managed by Water and Sanitation for the Urban Poor (WSUP), an organization working closely with WaterAid. This project shows how offering loans to small businesses can help with the development of affordable waste management services.
Paulo Biane Vaiene from the Maputo community of Maxaquene is one such entrepreneur benefiting from financial assistance. His small enterprise UGSM Vaiene started emptying small septic tanks using a small pump and tank called a "gulper" that was pulled by a donkey. With a loan from WSUP, he was able to buy a truck that has allowed him to cover more clients and expand his radius of operations. Business is thriving, more households can now take advantage of his services, which cost around $20 and are required twice a year, and public health is safeguarded by the safe disposal of the waste.
Just as Paulino has demonstrated that fecal sludge removal can be a profitable business, there are opportunities to develop small businesses selling a selection of toilet designs to families. A range of viable technologies has been developed, but business models need to be developed with finance plans to ensure that options are affordable to all families regardless of income. We found that all needed construction skills exist in the communities, so the focus needs to be on ensuring these skilled laborers are able to find employment that not only helps their families out of poverty but also helps communities stay healthy and meet their basic needs.
These experiences show how innovative financing models can impact on health in low-income urban communities. When water connection charges are not only reduced but split into installments, poor families can afford to get linked to the municipal piped water system, and the support of small private service providers ensures families have access to effective and affordable fecal sludge removal services until the sewage network can be expanded.
These examples also show the importance of linking larger systems — such as pipes for the water utility or waste management and sewage systems — with community and household-based needs and approaches. Reducing poverty and protecting people's health and well-being requires a combination of efforts, from local capacity building and small business development to larger-scale infrastructure development. I was inspired by the efforts being made by NGOs and community-based organizations to build healthy communities. The skills, the demand, and the creativity are there. We have so many opportunities now to make the most of them.

Am I Having a Boy or Girl? — Ultrasound & Sex Prediction
- A baby’s gender is determined when the egg is fertilized.
- Whether a baby will be a boy or a girl is determined at the time of conception, long before most women even realize they are pregnant.
- Both the egg from the mother and the sperm from the father carry sex chromosomes. The egg always contributes an X chromosome, and the sperm can contribute either an X or a Y chromosome, depending on the sperm cell.
- The sex of the baby is determined by the sperm cell that fertilizes the egg first. If the sperm is carrying an X chromosome, the baby will be a girl. If the sperm is carrying a Y chromosome, the baby will be a boy

Men and Women—The Difference
“Charles Darwin theorized that women were intellectually inferior to men. His contemporary, Gustave Le Bon, viewed them as “the most inferior forms of human evolution.”

Appreciate Jesus’ Unique Role in God’s Purpose
“THROUGHOUT the ages, many have endeavored to stand out as different from those around them, but few do. Even fewer individuals can rightly claim that they are unique in significant ways. Yet, Jesus Christ, the Son of God, is unique in many ways.1
