wind-chill temperature
How cold is it outside? The temperature alone is not enough to provide the answer. Other factors including wind speed, relative humidity, and sunshine play important roles in determining coldness outside. In 2001, the National Weather Service implemented the new wind-chill temperature to measure the coldness using temperature and wind speed. The following formula is given as follows
twc = 35.74 + 0.6215ta 35.75v0.16 + 0.4275tav0.16
where ta is the outside temperature measured in degrees Fahrenheit and v is the speed measured in miles per hour. Twc is the wind-chill temperature. The formula cannot be used for wind speeds below 2 mph or temperatures below -58o F or above 410F.

In a recent White House interview, President Obama's mask slipped.
He was chatting calmly with CNBC's John Harwood while a housefly wandered around the room, intending no harm to anyone. And then, just like that, the president moved with blinding -- one might say unbelievable -- speed and killed the insect that had landed on his arm.
No human moves that quickly.
Obama foes get a bad rap. They're called wingnuts and paranoiacs when their opponents are feeling generous; racists and xenophobes when they're not. But not in a million years would his detractors have thought to question whether he was entirely human.
And because a slight majority of Americans fell for his campaign promises of "change," the whole nation is now stuck with a president who does indeed represent a change from 200-odd years of tradition.
We have our first cyborg president, and we have only ourselves to blame.
Think about it. He's known for being cool and emotionless. He shows an uncommon affection for mechanical equipment such as teleprompters. And when he's backed into a rhetorical corner, he almost invariably responds with some variation of "the stakes are too high, the challenges too great" -- just like an anxious robot would.
So to all those people who want Obama to produce his birth certificate, consider this: the question of whether or not he was born in the United States is irrelevant. Let's first focus on whether or not he was "born" at all.
Cyborg expert and robotics engineer Sara K. Smith writes for NBC and Wonkette.


text: The RockShow was born out of frustration. Sexual frustration mostly because, I mean, come on have you looked at us? We couldn't get laid at a nymphomaniac convention. But then after the whole trying to get laid thing we were frustrated that so many douchebags love to hear themselves talk so freakin much that they've taken the rock of rock radio stations. Well guess what? TALK DOESN'T ROCK! So we decided to fill the empty void of music in the mornings. Sure lots of morning shows say they play music, and they do, but a minute and a half of Free Bird to kick off what otherwise is a sh!@ty morning show doesn't count in our book. So we guarantee at least 8-10 songs every hour every morning or your money back. So if you're just dying to hear people blather on about what color their kids poop was that morning go ahead and tune in to LIVE with Regis and Kelly, or whatever the hell floats your boat. But if you need some loud ass music to knock the sleep/hangover off in the morning so you can make it through your day, then the RockShow is for you. Tell your friends and tickle their taints. Love, The RockShow.

These days, many people rely on technology to save money. They go online for Groupon offers, they print coupons, and they scan deals pages.
But there's an even simpler way to save. It's the technique human beings have been using since they developed the ability to use language: ask for a better deal.
Granted, we often haggle when shopping for big-ticket items like cars or houses. But there's no reason you shouldn't try it with less-expensive items. It can work when you buy furniture or even stay at a hotel. In fact, a national Consumer Reports survey a few years ago found Americans who ask for a discount get it up to 83 percent of the time.
[Related: Money-saving tips that work]
How do you know if you can haggle for something? There's only one way to find out, and the worst that can happen is a "no." If you want to boost your odds, try these tips…
1. Do your homework
It's easier to bargain for a deal (and recognize if you're really getting one) when you understand the numbers. Before you go shopping, research prices and competitors. Check on store policies to see if a business matches prices, and under what conditions. And while this obviously applies to big purchases like appliances, don't stop there. If the dry cleaner down the street is charging $1 for shirts, why should you pay $1.25 at yours?
2. Don't be afraid to walk away
Your biggest bargaining chip is the fact your business isn't guaranteed. If a seller is convinced you're going to buy (or continue buying) from them regardless, you're at their mercy. They should be at yours. Not getting the price you want? Say you're going to see if the next competitor down the list can do better. If they don't care, neither will you – because you'll mean it.
The person with the power is the one who doesn't care if the deal gets done.
3. Ask the right person
Not everybody has the authority to negotiate, so seek out the decision-maker. Customer service, billing issues, and cancellations are often handled by different people, especially on the phone. In a store, the salespeople might not have the authority to negotiate. Ask. If they don't, speak to a manager. In fact, any time someone can't or won't help you with any purchase or problem, don't be afraid to say, "OK. Now I understand you can't help me. May I please speak with someone who can?"
[Related: Why a Budget Could Cause You to Spend More]
4. Time it right
One trick to negotiating is understanding the other person's business. For instance, at certain times of the year, clothing stores are eager to get rid of seasonal merchandise. Car dealers might be pushing to meet an end-of-month quota. And every salesperson is more attentive when business is slow. New Year's Eve is traditionally one of the best times to shop for a car – it's end of the month, end of the year, and there are no customers in the showroom.
In short, try to buy when others aren't and when stores need to either clear inventory or make quota.
5. Pay with paper instead of plastic
Businesses can pay up to 3 percent in transaction costs by accepting credit cards. If you're paying cash, you deserve to take at least that much off the purchase price.
6. Don't fear awkwardness
If you have little experience haggling, don't sell yourself short just because it feels weird. You're not being a cheapskate, and the other party isn't going to hate you. Don't get flustered by a momentary silence, and don't be afraid to pause and think. In fact, silence can be a bargaining tool. According to Stacy, who was in securities sales for 10 years, "In any negotiation, make an offer, then shut up. Wait 10 minutes in silence if you have to. Because more often than not, the next person to speak loses."
7. Be friendly
Being aggressive only works when you're in the superior position. If you lack power – which you do when trying to negotiate something like a discounted hotel room – play nice. Rude customers are the rule for most people in customer service. Be the exception. Smile, be patient, make a joke. Nobody wants to help a jerk, but everyone wants to do a favor for a friend.
That being said, it's important to be real. You don't have to be Donald Trump or Mr. Rogers to get a deal – just be yourself. Use the person's name as often as possible, look them in the eye, and treat people like you like being treated.
8. Be firm
Being nice doesn't mean rolling over. If you're a steady customer, don't be shy about pointing that out. Your loyalty should be worth something. And if not, your future business definitely is.
[Related: Admit It—A Refund Feels Good]
9. Be persistent
Stacy's rule: ask three times. "When I go into a hotel, I ask for a discount. If they say no, I say, "Are you sure there's not some special rate you can give me?" If they still say no, then I use my fallback. I smile big and say, "Well, you can at least give me the Elvis suite for the same price, right?" They invariably laugh, and almost invariably give me the best deal they possibly can.
Speaking of upgrades…
10. Go for extras
If the price is non-negotiable, don't give up. There are other ways to sweeten a deal – like a free upgrade, accessories, a future discount, free shipping, free delivery, or free installation. Sometimes, businesses are already prepared to offer these concessions – because they're cheaper than dropping the price but still make customers happy.
Bottom line? Like conversation, negotiation is an art that cries out to be practiced. It's not just acceptable, it's fun. It often results in lively banter and nearly as often a better deal.
These days, many people rely on technology to save money. They go online for Groupon offers, they print coupons, and they scan deals pages.

Alzheimer's caregiving isn't a one-person task — and friends and loved ones might be more willing to help than you'd think. Here's help reaching out.
Alzheimer's caregiving is a tough job, and it's difficult for one person to handle alone. No one is equipped to care for another person 24 hours a day, seven days a week. If you're caring for a loved one who has Alzheimer's disease, understand the stress you're facing — and know how to ask for help.
At first, you might be able to meet your loved one's needs yourself. This might last months or even years, depending on how quickly the disease progresses and your own mental and physical health. Eventually, however, your loved one will need more help with everyday tasks, such as eating, bathing and toileting.
And just as the physical demands of caregiving increase, so can the emotional toll. Challenging dementia-related behaviors can strain the coping skills of even the most patient and understanding caregiver.
The sustained stress of caregiving also can weaken your immune system. You might eat and sleep poorly and have trouble setting aside time for yourself. Caregiving might also increase your risk of depression. Before you know it, you're so busy caring for your loved one that you could drift away from your family and friends — at a time when you need them the most.
Alzheimer's is a progressive disease with symptoms that get worse over time. Shouldering the load yourself can diminish the quality of the care you provide. If you're the primary caregiver for your loved one, talk to your family about sharing some of the responsibility.
To prevent caregiver burnout, it's essential to reach out for support, too. Here's help getting started:
You might worry that no one will be willing to help you, but you won't know until you ask. Although some people might say no, most of your friends and loved ones probably want to help, but simply don't know how.
If you can't get enough help from your friends and relatives, take advantage of community resources. You might enroll your loved one in an adult day program, both for the social interaction the program will provide your loved one and the caregiving respite it'll provide you. You might also consider working with an agency that provides household help or assistance with daily tasks. Counseling services and support groups also can help you cope with your caregiving duties.
Think of the process of caregiving as a marathon, not a sprint. Marshal your resources and find every bit of assistance available so that you can conserve your strength for the journey. In the long run, you'll be helping your loved one as well as yourself.

About Wailing Souls
The consummate roots band, the Wailing Souls may never have gained the international reputation of their compatriots, at least not at the height of the genre's popularity, but they did outlive most of them. Their very survival has been their greatest strength, that and their ability to diversify over time. Today they are one of the most popular live acts around and they continue to release provocative and popular albums. A roots band they may well be, but their history actually stretches back long before the birth of that genre, as far back as the heyday of ska. The Wailing Souls' story begins with Winston "Pipe" Matthews. As a youth living in Kingston in the early '60s, Matthews learned to sing at the feet of Joe Higgs. Higgs, although himself barely out of his teens, was already a veteran vocalist with a string of hits to his name, and coached up and coming talent in his tenement yard. His most famous protégés were, of course, the Wailers. Higgs' training stood Matthews in equally good stead and by 1963, the aspiring singer and his vocal group the Schoolboys had come to the attention of Prince Buster. The group cut a handful of singles for the producer over the next year, "Little Boy Blue" and "Dream Lover" included. In 1965, the Schoolboys folded, but Matthews was soon back with a new group, the Renegades. This vocal trio comprised Matthews, Lloyd "Bread" McDonald, and George "Buddy" Haye, both of whom were also alumni of Higgs' vocal classes. Initially, the group hooked up with guitarist Ernest Ranglin appearing on a number of singles with him, before they finally debuted on their own with "Lost Love." It was at this point that the trio came to the attention of Coxsonne Dodd and the Renegades embarked on a fruitful career at Studio One. Over the next three years, the group released a clutch of singles on this label. Their debut for Dodd was "Back Out With It," a fine effort, but it was a later cut, "Fire Coal Man," recorded to the rhythm of the Silverstones' hit "Burning in My Soul," that eventually had the biggest impact. Although a number of the Renegades' singles were local hits, the trio never really excited much attention elsewhere during their lifetime.
In 1968, Haye departed, in his place came two new singers, Oswald Downer and Norman Davis. Such a seismic shift of lineup prompted the group to totally cut ties with the past, and the they changed their moniker to the Wailing Souls. In many ways, though, the quartet merely picked up where the trio had left off and continued recording popular singles — "Thou Shall Not Steal," "Dungeon," and "Pack Your Things," included. Although only a handful are now recalled by fans from these earliest days, the group would re-record a number in later years under new titles, and these seminal re-cuts are still part of the group's most treasured canon. Amongst these are such classic songs as "Feel the Spirit" (originally released as "Soul and Power") and "Back Biter" ("You Should Have Known Better"). Studio One would eventually release two compilations of recordings from this period, The Wailing Souls and Soul and Power, which together wrap up most of the quartet's best work with Dodd. And while song titles would change in the future, back then the quartet was appearing under enough aliases to fill an FBI sheet. When the group recorded "Gold Digger for Lloyd Daley, the single was credited in the U.K. to Little Roys. Elsewhere, they appeared as Atarra, the Classics, and even Pipe & the Pipers. Apparently their was some concern in Britain that people might confuse the Wailing Souls with the Wailers. The Wailers themselves certainly didn't think so, and in 1970 the quartet moved to the Tuff Gong label. More crucial singles followed, including "Walk Walk Walk" and "Harbour Shark," all backed by the Tuff Gong All Stars of course, aka the Wailers themselves.
The group's career seemed to be on track, but in 1974, the Wailing Souls suddenly underwent a swift series of cataclysmic lineup shifts. Davis and Downer both departed, with former Renegade Hayes and former vocal teacher Higgs taking their place. Higgs' stay was short-lived, however, and he too soon departed to take part in a U.S. tour with Jimmy Cliff. In his stead came founding Black Uhuru member Rudolph "Garth" Dennis. Such dramatic changes in personnel usually heralds the rapid decline of a group, but surprisingly enough, the Wailing Souls were now about to enter their strongest era. The new group joined forces with producer JoJo Hookim at his Channel One studio, and backed by Sly & Robbie's Revolutionaries proceeded to cut classic song after classic song. "Jah Give Us Life," a re-recorded version of "Fire Coal Man," "Back Biter," "Things and Time" (also re-recordings of old songs, but with new titles attached), and "War" featuring DJ Ranking Trevor, all impacted across the Jamaican roots scene. Across the Atlantic, the Ulster punk band Stiff Little Finger were as taken by the music as fans in Jamaica, and recorded their own phenomenal version of "Fire Coal Man, helping further excite interest in the group abroad. In 1984, the British label Empire gathered up many of the group's masterful singles with Hookim on the compilation The Best Of.
By 1977, the Wailing Souls were ready to have a go running their own record label, which they named Massive. It was a prescient moniker and their debut release, the seminal "Bredda Gravalicious," was a smash hit and remains a firm favorite to this day. Their follow-up, "Feel the Spirit," another one of their old Studio One cuts given new life, did equally as well. The success of these two singles prompted Island Records to pick up world rights to the group's debut album, 1979's Wild Suspense. (In reality, their eponymous Studio One album was their first, and was released three years earlier, but this was the group's first album of new material.) The record boasts some of the heaviest roots of the Wailing Souls' career, and along with the two singles, it also features the equally classic "Very Well." Even though Massive had proved just that, the quartet continued recording for other labels. They rejoined Sly & Robbie at their Taxi label for the sublime "Sugar Plum Plum" and "Old Broom," both of which were huge hits. With Sly & Robbie and their Roots Radics in tow, the Wailing Souls returned to Channel One, and cut a stream of exceptional singles for producer Junjo Lawes. The infectious "Firehouse Rock," the exquisite harmonies of "See Baba Joe," and the mighty "Kingdom Rise Kingdom Fall," followed, as the group released a stream of hits across 1980 and into 1981. All three of these singles featured on the Wailing Souls' next album, the magnificent Firehouse Rock. Produced by Lawes, ignited by the Roots Radics, and mixed by Scientist, the set remains a high water mark of the roots age, with the band's tough rhythms perfectly aligned with the singer's own soulful delivery. Their follow-up, 1982's Inchpinchers, is nearly as good, although its dancehall vibes didn't always sit well with the purer roots crowd. In the interim, the group also released Wailing, and cut a number of other notable singles with other producers, including such hits as "Who No Waan Come" and "Rude Boy Say Him Bad."
In 1981, the Wailing Souls were on the road, and embarked on a short tour of California, so enjoying the experience, they spent most of the next three years in the States. However, they continued releasing singles, several of them self-productions, and a number were cut in collaboration with DJs, including "Take We Back," which saw them reunite with Ranking Trevor, and "Take a Taste," with Ringo. During this period, the group also released two albums, 1983's On the Rocks and the following year's Stranded. And for a moment, they were indeed stranded. Garth Dennis had now elected to reunite with his old band Black Uhuru, and Haye refused to leave L.A. Matthews and McDonald were not finished yet, however. They returned to Jamaica, and continued the group as a duo. The now-shrunken Wailing Souls joined up with producer Delroy Wright for 1986's On the Line, an apt title, considering the situation. It was evident that the pair had yet to find their footing, but their follow-up, Kingston 14, found them back on track, abetted by yet another reunion with Sly & Robbie, who provided sublime rhythms. And if there were doubts, they were put to rest with "Full Moon," another smash hit. In 1988, the Wailing Souls recorded a new album, again in conjunction with Sly & Robbie, along with a slew of seminal session men and overseen by Wright. However, the record was not released at the time. Their next full-length, the fabulous Stormy Night, would not appear until the following year, and found the duo now working with King Jammy. Amazingly, Stormy Night was never given a Jamaican release, although it created quite a stir around the rest of the world. Even odder, the recordings didn't spawn a sole hit single.
Understandably, the Wailing Souls were losing patience. They'd wasted a year recording an album that never saw release, and now their new record was unable to even find a Jamaican label willing to put it out. In truth, the hits were drying up, although the group's work remained as strong as ever, the vocals as heartfelt, and harmonies as exquisite as they'd always been. Styles had changed, and at home, interest had flagged. By 1991, Matthews and McDonald had made the momentous decision to quit Jamaica, and returned to the States. And there, the previously unreleased Reggae Ina Firehouse was finally mashing up the dancefloor. It might have arrived three years late, but there was no disguising the record's mastery. Even so, the duo were unhappy at its unexpected and tardy arrival, but they shouldn't have been. The album is filled with phenomenal songs, fabulous roots music, and some of the pair's best vocals. However, the Wailing Souls did have some reason for concern, as they were about to embark on a musical journey that would make their old roots fans mouths drop. Recruiting vocalist Maisha, the trio inked a deal with the Sony label's Chaos subsidiary and began work on a new album. Along for the ride was a club's worth of guest musicians, backing vocalists and even a pair of DJs (including U-Roy). The result, 1992's All Over the World, deservedly earned the group a Grammy nomination, and is a genre buster extraordinaire. Running from deep roots to funk, R&B to country, it was enough to give older rastas a heart attack. But the the Wailing Souls were unrepentant, and continued on their merry way. They followed up with the Live On live set, which did not live up to Sony's expectations, but there was little time for tears, and the group happily made their way for the indie labels. Tension arrived in 1997, with Psychedelic Souls quickly following the next year. The latter again boasts Sly & Robbie's tough rhythms, and finds the group venturing ever deeper into the rock world. The pair stayed on board for 2000's Equality, which returned Wailing Soul to their rootsiest roots, yet is shot through with a modern electronic sound and American stylings. The duo remain defiant, refusing to play the role of elder statesmen; they've remained forward looking, and over time their biting cultural lyrics have not softened an iota. The Wailing Souls continue to tour, and we can expect more intriguing releases guaranteed to mix-up the music and shake the dancefloors.

Unable to wait for a sequel to The Incredibles for one minute longer, the talented artist Edwin Rhemrev took it upon himself to make his own Incredibles 2 artwork. And the result is very impressive. It's so glorious we almost wish this was actual Pixar concept art, and not just one fan's dedication to a great movie.
Especially since it looks like now, the Incredible family has their own awesome skycraper! What other details can you pick out, hidden in the art?

we also have a feral poodle class – the nomads of retreats, therapy diplomas, summer festivals at wilderness camp, gap year indulgence, second homes in evacuated France and N Italy, yoga retreats in Spain and Osho love-ins all over the place. These ferals waifs are able to cradle their semi-outsider exclusion while the feral criminal walks on literal glass instead of slipping around on lavender oil. I blame the tattoo industry – such dainty scars, available almost everywhere. I'm suprised M&S hasn't cottoned on.
Having just read Ken Clarke's facile, vacuous and pompous account of the recent riots in English cities, Blanco feels moved to chip in.
Clarke makes three points in his article in Monday's Guardian. The first is that the full force of the law should come crashing down on the 'feral underclass' who were responsible for the disturbances and the looting and who now are facing the 'cold, hard accountability of the dock'. The second is that just about the right degree of 'robust punishment' has been exacted on the said feral underclass by the judiciary; and the third is that such individuals – in his opinion 'the criminal classes . . . who haven't been changed by their past punishments' – continue to receive robust punishment in prisons where they learn the ethics of 'productive hard work' and where the 'scandal of drugs being readily available' is wiped out by paying prison staff by the 'results' they achieve rather than by fulfilling 'processes and box-ticking'.
So far, by my reckoning, he has made more or less the same point, three times.
Finally 'we need to continue to put rocket boosters on our plans to fix not just criminal justice but education, welfare and family policy'. Wow. How easily that little triptych – education, welfare and family policy – is trotted out. I am bedazzled.
Clarke talks of 'addressing the appalling social deficit that the riots have highlighted' but says nothing of the appalling social inequality that ensure the UK remains the most class-ridden and – ironically – the most apolitical nation in Europe.
Another take on the riots comes from Slavoj Žižek in this week's London Review of Books. Žižek, like a true idealist, bewails the fact that the rioters had no agenda for change, only acting as slaves to a consumer culture that is forever dangled before their eyes but of which they cannot partake: "You call on us to consume while simultaneously depriving us of the means to do it properly" (presumably 'doing it properly' would be engaging in what Mr Clarke calls 'hard graft' – but alas there are no jobs, or if there are they are total shit and therefore taken by immigrants and would certainly not provide enough remuneration to purchase the goods more easily acquired by lobbing a brick through a shop window and nicking them).
This aspect of things was explored most succinctly in an article in the Argentinian newspaper Clarín, in a report from María Laura Avignolo: "Social inequality divides the poor from the rich, while a ridiculous culture of media celebrity provides a lifestyle model to aspire towards, and 'reality shows' a means of salvation and social respectability in a society stratified by a very Victorian vision of class." Looters, she continues, not only tried on the most fashionable designer clothes for size and fit and chose the best plasma TVs in the store, but destroyed what they could not carry with them "in an attack on the consumer society to which they aspire and cannot belong. The images did not show a social rebellion, but a chilling consumer revenge."
Such detail is depressing for an idealist such as Žižek, even such an articulate one. One wishes there were something to celebrate about the riots, but sadly there is not. Just a sense of depression, of loss, and of disgust: "And this is the fatal weakness of recent protests: they express an authentic rage which is not able to transform itself into a positive programme of sociopolitical change. They express a spirit of revolt without revolution."
The most interesting point for me in Žižek's argument – and at least there were points of interest, unlike the garbage coming from Clarke – was the reference he made to Herbert Marcuse, a philosopher of the 1960s whom I remember reading avidly as a sixteen year old, high on dreams of revolution. Marcuse argued that human drives could be desublimated (the term he used was 'repressive desublimation') but still remain subject to capitalist control. "On British streets during the unrest" writes Žižek, "what we saw was not men reduced to 'beasts', but the stripped down form of the 'beast' produced by capitalist ideology."
How far we have come since the days of Che.

The NEC requires some things only if the Authority Having Jurisdiction (AHJ) requires them; others are just optional. Don't exclude these from consideration simply because you "don't have to" do them.
Why? The NEC isn't a design manual [90.1] and doesn't provide engineering guidance beyond what's adequate for protecting people and property from the hazards arising from the use of electricity.
An example of where this matters is the idea of feeders sharing neutrals — a practice the NEC permits [215.4]. Today's high harmonic loads in the typical commercial or industrial facility make this practice unacceptable from a performance/reliability viewpoint.
Another example follows right after 215.4. If the AHJ requires diagrams of feeders, then you must provide them (with relevant details) prior to installing the feeders [215.5]. The implication is that you can skip the diagrams if the AHJ doesn't insist you produce them.
The "justification" for not documenting the feeders is supposedly to reduce costs. In reality, it raises costs dramatically. Sooner or later, you will pay for that documentation. The worst, and most expensive, time to pay is when production sits dead in the water while techs try to decipher the undocumented distribution system.
"Saving money" by relegating design to mere NEC compliance is an exercise in false economics. Always consider the costs of not implementing reliability or operational considerations.

It took Mazy Kazerooni, my right hand Ustream Biz Dev, a little over a month to convince me to go to the Future of Web Apps in Miami (FOWA). Immediately after getting back from The Crunchies he mentioned it – and pushed hard. "Its going to be awesome dude, tons of great speakers!". I wasn't convinced. I mean come on, if I'm going to spend hundreds of dollars to fly across the country I want to be sure its going to be worth it. "DUDE! MATT! FOWA is next week! We need to make a decision!". I was in a corner… I wanted to go…but I didn't want to spend the money. "Matt Mullenwag and Kevin Rose are speaking!". SOLD! I agreed to go and we quickly packed our carry-ons.
After two flights, a two hour layover, and multiple unfulfilling bags of peanuts, we made it Miami. Strangely enough Miami is exactly what it looks like in the movies – lots of tan people rollerblading. It almost wanted to make me laugh. I mean I'm from Orange County, which is nothing like "The OC"…but these guys were exactly how TV and Hollywood said they were. Anyways… I digress.
We checked out Barcamp and then later headed over to the Nokia party. There we participated in some crazy game where we were supposed to yell as loud as possible. Sounds fun right? Maybe…but the burn in my throat was nothing compared to how it caught fire after I started drinking. I bet there's a Nokia guy laughing at my pain this very moment. Jerks.
Finally, Friday, it was time for the Future of Web Apps. We got in around 9am and with only four hours of sleep – just in time for Mullenwag's speech. The thing about Mullenwag is that he's so intelligent that he could tell you anything and you'd believe it. He's also a super nice guy. When he responds to someone with a different opinion, he'll do it with a friendly attitude but at the same time he totally obliterates whatever they just said. Then to top it off he gives this little chuckle after he's done talking that has "I just owned you" written all over it. Its amazing.
The talks were okay, mainly everyone was discussing how to scale and technical stuff like that. The one highlight would be when Blaine from Twitter was on stage telling everyone how he's so glad that Twitter had been up for the past few days. Joke was on him though – Twitter was down during his speech. His phone was ringing constantly throughout everything, and like many of us expected, turns out it was Twitter calling. Blaine hurried off stage to fix everyones favorite microblogger among heckles from the crowd "Help us Blaine! We need Twitter!".
The parties alone made the trip worth while. Mazy and I were literally attacked by people who wanted access to Ustream's API. It was insane… it was also a wake up call – We'll be releasing a public API soon. We also met with a bunch of companies and people who could use Ustream by either integrating it with their site and/or doing a live show. From FOWA alone we made a lot of good contacts and Ustream is going to be all the better because of it.
Even though the actual conference wasn't amazing, our trip to Miami was a major success. The tech community as a whole is highly intelligent and willing to help each other out – its great. So many eager entrepreneurs and so much energy in this industry… it really makes it an exciting business to be in. We'll definitely be going back.
With FOWA over its time for SXSW! I hope to see a lot of Ustreamers there.
For now though, its time to sleep. Got to wake up in time for my flight tomorrow…

HealthDay Reporter
FRIDAY, May 14 (HealthDay News) -- If you're about to make a big financial purchase, keep your distance from the friendly and helpful saleswoman.
Latest Mental Health News
A series of experiments by researchers from Columbia University and University of Alberta found both men and women were more likely to take financial risks after being lightly touched on the back by a woman, new research shows.
The same contact with a man did not result in more risk-taking.
Researchers say being touched by a woman may remind participants of their mother's touch during infancy, making them feel more secure and confident in taking chances.
"Certain forms of contact are associated with memories and emotional experiences of being touched by your mom," explained study author Jonathan Levav, an associate professor of business at Columbia University in New York City. "We wanted to find out how that played out among adults. What we found for financial risk-taking is a touch by a man doesn't have much influence, but a woman's touch does."
The study was recently published online in the journal Psychological Science.
In the first experiment, participants were ushered into a room with either a light, one-second touch on back of shoulder from a female, or simply asked to take a seat without any touching. Participants then had to answer 14 questions that involved decisions about money with varying levels of risk. For example, students were asked to choose between receiving $600 for sure, or flipping a coin and having a 50-50 chance of receiving $2,000.
Both male and female participants who'd been touched were significantly more likely to gamble on the bigger payout.
In a second experiment, college business students were either touched by a male or a female, shook hands with a male or female, or were not touched. Students were then asked to choose between investing $5 (which represented $500) in some combination of riskier bank stocks or in safer bonds that delivered a 4% return.
Those who'd been touched on the back by a woman put more of their money in stocks. Those who shook hands with a woman also showed a slight increase in their risk-taking. Neither shaking hands with or being touched by a man had any effect.
"People find even a woman's handshake slightly comforting," Levav said.
In the third experiment, participants were asked to write an essay about a time they felt "secure and supported" or "insecure and alone." Recalling these events "primed" participants to feel a certain way.
Researchers then repeated the touch vs. not touching situations prior to making investment choices.
Those who wrote about feeling insecure and were not touched were especially conservative in their investment choices. Those who wrote an essay about feeling insecure but were then touched by a woman were more likely to take financial risks -- about the same as those who started off feeling secure, according to the study.
Many previous studies have demonstrated that maternal contact is key to the development of children, Levav said, and that's true not just for human babies, but for many species, even spiders.
One study found that baby spiders who'd spent more time with their mothers were more likely to explore the far reaches of their maze, Levav noted.
"Maternal physical contact serves to promote attachment with the infant, which promotes feelings of security, which gives the infant inner strength to explore new uncertain things," Levav said.
The study also suggests that decisions that appear to be driven by rational processes can be influenced by more subjective, emotional and subconscious factors, Levav said. In his experiments, most participants could not remember having being touched.
The experiments are "fascinating," said R. Chris Farley, an associate professor of psychology at University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. Though there are other possible explanations for why participants touched by a woman were more likely to takes risks -- perhaps some perceived the contact as romantic interest -- this is unlikely because both men and women responded similarly.
Further studies might look at whether or not people's relationships with their mothers or fathers might have any impact on how strongly people reacted to the touch, he added.

The Missing by C.L Taylor it's a great read. :)ReplyDelete
So many possibilities but in the end I always go back to Anya Seton books. My favourite is Katherine (The Winthrop Woman comes a very close second). I love it because it is beautifully written, it is (pretty much) historically accurate, the characters are vivid and passionate without being perfect. It keeps you interested and caring about what happens all the way through and gives a huge book hang over as all good books should.ReplyDelete

by Christy Wilson Beam.
I think you should read it because it's
a heart warming true story
that has been made into a movie.
Thank you for having this giveaway.
I don't often pick up poetry, but one of my favorite books is a collection of poems by Pablo Neruda: "100 Love Sonnets / Cien sonetos de amor." I have an English/Spanish edition, and love it because a poem will be in the original Spanish on the left-hand (? -- don't recall offhand) page, and the English translation on the right. I love this because not only are the poems incredibly beautiful, but it's so wonderful to be able to refer back to the original words as Neruda penned them. Something really does get "lost in translation"!ReplyDelete
Anything by Mark Gartside, his books are hilarious.ReplyDelete
jen dot barnard at btinternet dot com

From the wikipedia entry about "Omakase":
"Omakase is a Japanese phrase that means "I'll leave it to you" and it comes from the word for "entrust".
"The expression is used at sushi restaurants to leave the selection to the chef. It differs from ordering à la carte. The chef will generally present a series of plates, beginning with the lightest fare and proceeding to heaviest, richest dishes. The phrase is not exclusive to service of raw fish with rice, and can incorporate grilling and simmering as well. Customers ordering omakase style expect the chef to be innovative and surprising in the selection of dishes, and the meal can be likened to an artistic performance by the chef. Ordering omakase can be a gamble; however, the customer typically receives the highest quality fish the restaurant currently has in stock at a price cheaper than if it was ordered à la carte. From the restaurant's perspective, a large number of customers ordering omakase can help in planning for food costs."
The other day, while I was working with him at Alembic, Danny Louie asked me what bartenders I admired in San Francisco.
I went through the litany of respected bartenders I admire in San Francisco and why.
But later, I was thinking about it, and another candidate for my favorite tender of a bar doesn't make drinks at all.
Tim Archuleta and his wife run Ichi Sushi in my San Francisco neighborhood.
Tim runs his Sushi Bar more like a neighborhood Sushi Tavern, greeting guests as the come in. Asking them about their families or dogs. Keeping track of the progress of the various diners' meals at his sushi bar. Pacing people's meals so they don't get too full or wait too long. All the while, cutting and serving some of the freshest sushi I've ever tasted.
I really admire the spirit he brings to the restaurant and to his guests.
Every time we go in, I usually just say chef's choice and tell him how much we'd like to eat and what we are in the mood for.
It's really fun, the way he paces the meal, starting with lighter fare, throwing in a few cooked dishes, and finishing again with lighter, almost dessert sushi.
Watching him work has made me think about how to properly pace and what order to serve people drinks. What drink is best first, what to follow with, what to finish with. If a guest asks you what to pair a dish with, what do you tell them?
Some of the best experiences I've had being served by a bartender have been at the Slanted Door, when my wife and I are lucky enough to be served by Mr. Erik Adkins*.
Like Omakase, we give him a framework of what we are interested in, how hungry, do we have food allergies, do we like oysters, etc, and he fills it out with what food is currently best at the restaurant and pairs it with wine, beer and spirits. His knowledge of both the food and drink is amazing but it is his apparent joy at serving us, as guests, with the best he has to offer, which is truly inspirational.
I don't really have a moral to this story, other than to to point out the self evident: As bartenders, it is important to be aware of the larger context of the guests' experiences.
I REALLY enjoy making great cocktails and impressing guests with them, but sometimes you have to put away the desire to impress a guest with your cocktail making skill and respect the trust they have put in you, whatever that means, on that on that night, for that particular guest, at that exact moment.
*I will note that I do work for Mr. Adkins at Heaven's Dog. This is in no way meant to suck up to him, he already gave me a job afterall, just an honest expression of my admiration for his talents as a host and bartender.

Fourth of what?
[media-credit name="David Zalubowski, Associated Press" align="alignright" width="256″][/media-credit]
These numbers disturb me. They might disturb you too.
A Rasmussen poll released today shows 26 percent of Americans do not know the 4th of July is a celebration of the ratification of this nation's Declaration of Independence.
The fact that a quarter of those surveyed didn't get it right is discouraging, but the implications are what really made me think. The poll, conducted July 30 to July 1, surveyed 1,000 people.
If that many folks can't explain the origins of the July 4th holiday, it makes me wonder on what basis people might be forming opinions about the Affordable Care Act. Or economic policy.
I'm not a policy snob who thinks you have to have a Ph.D. in a subject to have a legitimate opinion. Not by a long shot. But I do think at least a basic understanding of issues is something we should all strive for. Better informed citizens will only set a higher bar for elected officials.
As for the 4th of July question, come on people. Everyone should at least have a rudimentary understanding of why we shoot off fireworks and put up flags. It's not just an excuse for a BBQ.

Massage Therapy Gift Certificates - New Designs
An alternative to our traditional massage therapy gift certificates, this package includes a mix of 3 modern designs incorporating the new AMTA branding. The serene border colors, and images of nature, evoke massage therapy and will entice gift receivers to redeem ASAP.
These look great and when you put your business card in them they look even better.
I love that they have the AMTA logo as well as gorgeous designs perfect for men or women. I've already ordered these twice and as long as you guys have them, I will keep ordering them. I always get compliments on how lovely "my" certificates are. Thank you!!
These are very professional looking and I love the fact you can attach your business card.
Very nice quality and patterns. The blank space on the right has 4 cut outs to hold a business card. I happen to like this feature but maybe not everyone would want that. Best packet I've been able to find and I will likely reorder when needed unless I get my own made with logo. I don't do a tremendous amount of GC business so these are a nice affordable option for those who don't want to invest on getting all custom items printed.
Love these gift certificates. They are nice and have the AMTA logo. This is my second order.

Retro means old but cool.
I grew up with the Commodore C64 but was never able to master the machine. I was young, I wanted to play the latest games and let other people do the pioneer work on exploring this incredible hardware. Today I have better skills to catch up on what it takes to code the C64. I will share what I learn along the way. Enjoy the trip to the past!

New from Motorola
This article is also contributed by John Chan.
3GSM World Congress 2006
It's that time of year again where we pay a visit to the mobile mecca, the 3GSM World Congress. This is where deals are made, strategies are announced and technologies are shown off. But more importantly and interesting to us are the new mobile phones that we get to see on the show floors. Almost all the major mobile phone brands had new handsets revealed. Taking their cue from Motorola, we saw many slim handsets from most of the manufacturers. The RAZR V3 has really ignited a revolution in mobile phone design. Here is our coverage of some of the handsets from the major brands.
New from Motorola
There is no doubt that the Motorola RAZR V3 was wildly successful in 2005. The numbers show that, and just by looking around, you can see many people carrying this super-slim handset. The design philosophy has carried over to the bar-type handset, the SLVR, with Motorola giving super slim designs to the low-tier and mid-tier markets.

Confession: I did not expect that this lame budget deal would be Boehner's red line for tea-party criticism. But maybe it had to be that way. If he'd slammed them in October, when Cruz and Lee had galvanized the base against the bete noire of O-Care, it might have cost him his gavel. The stakes are lower now — he proved he was willing to shut down the government for a conservative cause, everyone understands that any budget deal with Democrats will vary only in shades of badness, and enough people have tuned out of the news in December that there won't be any grand revolt against him. If he wants to throw down the gauntlet to groups like the Club for Growth and FreedomWorks, now's as good a time as any. And who knows? Maybe he legitimately feels it's "ridiculous" for conservative PACs to shriek over a compromise when the stakes are as small as they are here. Take it from me: Even a RINO has his breaking point, my friends. Our candy-asses can stand kicking only so many times.
Is this smart, though?
Staffers for people who backed the plan are NOT happy about Boehner's comments.
— Ben Domenech (@bdomenech) December 12, 2013
The more antagonistic he gets with outfits like Heritage Action, the greater the risk that they'll elevate this vote into a litmus test and the greater the pressure there'll be on Republican fencesitters in the House to vote no. Then again, the vote's only four or five hours away. This was the point of jamming the bill through this week — the quicker you move, the less time conservative PACs have to build opposition. Members want to go home for Christmas. They'll risk some short-term grassroots wrath over a vote that people almost certainly won't remember a year from now.
Here's video from his presser. Watch for the big "Are you kidding me?!" freakout at 1:30. Terrifying exit question:
. @lukerussert makes a good point — If Boehner's suddenly willing to tell Heritage to shove it on budget, why not immigration?

Opinion: The Importance of Being Serious
Columnist Mary Anastasia O'Grady on the GOP's offer to avert the fiscal cliff.
This transcript has been automatically generated and may not be 100% accurate.
... I ... my first guest ... is editorial board member Mary Anastasia O'Grady to talk about the fiscal cliff negotiations welcome there ... so yesterday we got a counteroffer from the GOP I increases tax revenue by about eight hundred billion and half what the present wants ... by ending deductions closing loopholes slows the growth of Medicare and Social Security and you know on the clock care of Congress is set to go on break on the December twenty per store twenty make a counteroffer ... well I think it's progress ... if you're watching from the sidelines and you're hoping that there may come together ... I it's the first time that the Republicans had come out and said ok we're going to be the semi revenue because up until now they said yes to just cut the size of government ... so that's it I'm a big step forward ... Outwit to the rusting to me here is that the partisan and ... and love the administration has responded by saying I'm ... Deborah didn't ... take that tax rates on the wealthy ... and miss him really reminds us that this battle is as much for him about ... on the ideological ... symbolic ... on meaning of what what comes out of it as it is about the money ... and I he's he's really iam pretty dodgy and that he wants to win that fight will he keep saying I campaign on this and I won ALM ... so I want those those rate hikes ... is it smart for the GOP to continue holding the line on the rate we Noble or revenue on the table ... he wants that rate the rate of Opel and ... why would remind down you know people are watching this that the Republicans won the house ... and they campaigned on and smaller government ... so they also owes something to their constituents who who voted for them and I'm ... I think in Indiana what we're seeing here is really a hat they battle ... the tween whether we're going have a much larger government something that looks more like twenty four twenty five percent ... of GDP in tax revenues every year or ... something that's more like eighteen to twenty which is the historical norm for the country and the reason why we are a country where there's a lot of economic mobility teammate government as big as the Democrats wanted to be ... you're in and of looking more like Europe where there's less economic mobility ... the washer Post as a new poll out it says that fifty three percent of the public would blame Republicans ... if we go over the cliff and just twenty seven percent would claim ... that President t think that's why Obama thinks he can drive a hard bargain is now public opinion on the side ... I'm sure that that that is a big part of it and also you know as I've said many times before it's not surprising ... that people who make less than two and fifty thousand are interested in raising taxes on someone I he's the best ... I'm you know that's not a very surprising poll and you know you can get the responses you one and polls depending on the way you and ask the questions ... but I do think that you get two really important point here which is that ... on ... taxes are going to go a shade you know if if there's no deal they go up after the first two year making it anyway because the Bush tax cuts expire ... on what's important for both sides and I think which should be very important and Republicans here ... is how will they ... allow that to happen because being tax increases and big spending increases are going to have an impact ... on the economy and it's very important that when that happens the Republicans can say that present Obama is the one whose fingerprints are on the plan ... what about this idea that's been floated over the past couple weeks about just dealing with the of the bottom ... three tax brackets and saving the top two brackets for later cut a deal ... minute of the tax increases that will affect ninety eight percent ... of Americans and then fight another day over the top two percent ... is that something the Republican should be willing to do why I think that that would be perfectly fine but you know the Republicans ... should mean and and can afford to take their eye off the palm of spending ... that is so important it would spend all this time talking about whether taxes should be this or that of the au think ... that romance government has grown too fast and is growing too fast in the future and those ... issues must be addressed entitlements and discretionary spending and I think ... so I think the smart thing for them to do would be to go ahead and give the president what he wants ... on the top two brackets which would go up anyway if there's no deal ... I take the tax cuts for the middle class ... but he you know more and ... more tough on whether they'll be the sequester or not ... depending on whether the president will deliver any serious cuts the president doesn't want to cut the federal government ... and this is very important to the people who voted for the Republicans can the once a permanent increase in the sides of me and I'm you know ... thank you Mary ...

If you like loop hikes, put the Zirkel Circle on your "to do" list. The 11.2 mile trek near Steamboat Springs features two alpine lakes, scenic meadows, a waterfall and numerous cascades.
The hike starts at the Slavonia Trailhead, about 29 miles from town (directions below). The dirt parking lot has a bathroom and sign boards. There's one trail from the parking lot, but there are more trails along the path.
Just 0.2 miles from the parking lot, hikers come to their first trail split. A sign has an arrow pointing right for Gold Creek Lake (Trail No. 1150) and left for Gilpin Lake (Trail No. 1161). You can hike the loop in either direction. The Gold Creek side is longer so the elevation gain is more gradual. The Gilpin Lake side is harder, but once you hit the lake, you can see the last ridge you have to climb before it's all downhill.
The Gilpin Lake side is great in the summer months for wildflowers. In the fall, the aspens put on quite a show. When the trees open up, you'll enjoy beautiful meadows with views of the peaks in the distance. Gilpin Lake sits at the top of this valley on the right side. As you hike, you may get your feet wet. The trail crosses over several streams. Sometimes there are rocks and logs to help you cross, sometimes there are not. As you can hike, you'll likely hear a loud river nearby, don't worry, there are closeup views of the cascades occasionally as you hike toward Gilpin Lake. The trail has lots of ups and downs as it gains about 1,000 feet over that first three miles. As you hike the last mile to the lake, there are three sets of steep switchbacks.
When you come over the ridge to the lake, it will be all be worth it. An open field leads right to the shoreline of Gilpin Lake. The lake sits in a bowl below treeline. The lake's rocky shoreline is surrounded by trees and peaks. Find a spot in the open field for lunch or find a secluded spot on a rock in the trees.
At the lake, you'll see the ridge you're climbing next. That's 450 feet of elevation gain in less than a mile. It's steep, but the switchbacks help. And you'll likely be taking lots of breaks on the way up for photos of Gilpin Lake.
At the top, it's down a different valley to Gold Creek Lake about 2.7 miles away. Like the first valley, this valley features scenic meadows, cascading creeks and water crossings. There are two water crossings on this side that are a little tough. Take your time to scope out the best way across.
Gold Creek Lake is smaller than Gilpin Lake and while Gilpin was dark blue, Gold Creek Lake is green. It's an odd shape lake so it's hard to get a good picture of it, but as you hike around the shoreline, you should find some good spots. Take a break, enjoy the views, then it's about 3.2 miles back to the trailhead. Don't worry, it's not a boring trip out. There is thick forest to hike through and an impressive waterfall in this last stretch.
Details: 11.2 miles RT with an elevation gain of about 2,300 feet.
Directions: From U.S. 40 in Steamboat Springs, drive west through town to Elk River Road (County Road 129) and turn right. Follow CR 129 about 18 miles to Seedhouse Road (also known as NFSR 400/CR 64) and turn right. This is a dirt road that can be rough, but manageable for passenger cars. (Check with the Forest Service for the latest conditions.) Drive 11 miles to the end of the road at the Slavonia trailhead.

Michael Myvett and Mattison Haywood were identified Friday as two of 10 victims in Thursday's tragic bus crash in Northern California.
The recently engaged couple, who had been dating since 2011, was chaperoning high school students to Humboldt State University.
"She will always be in my heart," Mattison's tearful mother Carla Haywood said.
NBC4 spoke with Mattison's parents Friday at their home in Chino. Mattison, 25, was a high school and college basketball player, an artist and was studying to become a doctor while planning a life with her fiance Michael.
"Had only one of them survived, the other would be an absolute wreck because they were two peas in a pod," Mattison's father John Haywood said. "Rest in peace baby, daddy loves you."
Carla Haywood learned of the crash from Michael's grandmother.
"(She said) 'The bus that crashed was the one they were on.' And I said, 'How do you know that?' She said, 'Cause I took them to the bus station and I know what bus they got on," Carla Haywood recalled.
In a whimsical engagement, Myvett proposed to Haywood on Christmas Day on bended knee in Paris. It was a trip they both were looking forward to for a long time, said Davonna Foy, a friend of the couple.
"Michael loved Mattison since even I could remember, even before their courtship," Foy said.
The happy couple were described as very sweet people whose fairytale romance was "like a movie."
Last week, Mayvett told his cousin, Trinice Sampson, he wanted to have a family with his fiance.
He said that they wanted to wait until Haywood finished the medical program she was in but that it was very important to the both of them to have children, Sampson said.
Haywood attended Concordia University before meeting Myvett at Humboldt State University. Together they built a community of friends who loved them both.
Those friends were in shock Friday and took to their Facebook pages to write messages about the loss in their lives.
"My heart just sank to my feet. We are going to need each other more than ever now. This feels like a dream...," one friend wrote.
Another friend commented on how beautiful of a couple the two were together and that the loss was "truly a tragedy."
An outpouring of messages from people and organizations that knew the pair continued throughout the day.
Concordia University remembered Haywood on its Twitter page.
"Our prayers are with family & friends of alum Mattison Haywood '10, who passed away Thursday in the tragic bus crash in Northern California," the school posted.
Myvett, who worked with autistic children at the Center for Autism and Related Disorders, was described as, "an extraordinary individual who positively impacted the lives of families with autism spectrum disorder every day," by a spokeswoman for the company.
Myvett's family started a fund-raising site at gofundme.com and was accepting donations to help alleviate the cost of his up-coming services, Sampson said.
The fun-loving pair's journey was cut short Thursday in what friends said was a "devastating" and "tragic" event.
