Writing Prompt: How Harry Potter Has Changed YOU
Everyone remembers the first time he or she opened a Harry Potter book and started reading. Think back to the time before Harry Potter was in your life and tell us how reading the books has changed you as a person, changed how you look at certain things, and changed your perspective on life in general.
Firstly, Hermione became my alter-ego and I became a self-motivated, straight-A student. Now I just do my absolute best with everything because she makes it cool to be a nerd. I became more responsible because of Hermione.
Seeing how Harry suffered at the Dursleys' house made me put my stupid, little problems in perspective.
Seeing how coolly weird Luna is made me accept myself as an individual, if you know what I mean. Like, before, I was obsessed with conforming and being popular, and Luna made me step back and realize that there's only one of me. And my friendships have actually improved since then.
Harry showed me that you need to believe in yourself and know who your true friends are even when everyone hates you. – EarlyElf6
I must thank Luna the most. Without her, I would probably have always kept my quirky weirdness to myself. To me, HP has been a lot more than words on paper. It has been a life-changing, motivating, roller coaster ride of a story and I absolutely adore it. – Popcorn3Penguin

|Meeting Description:
|Language and the Law - Bridging the Gaps is the first International Conference to be jointly sponsored by ALIDI (the newly formed Association for Language and Law for Speakers of Portuguese) and the IAFL, (the International Association of Forensic Linguists). The official languages of the Conference will be English and Portuguese.
Our contact email for queries: email@example.com
The conference will be jointly hosted by PPGI (the Postgraduate Programme in English) and PGET (the Postgraduate Programme in Translation Studies), both of the Federal University of Santa Catarina in Florianopolis, Brazil. Most of the Conference will take place in the Centre for Communication and Expression on the main University campus, but we hope that there will be some sessions in a Court located on the perimeter of the Campus.
Keynote Speakers:
We are delighted to announce Professor Larry Solan of the Brooklyn Law School and Dr Ricardo Molina, Brazil's most famous Forensic Phonetician as plenary speakers. Other speakers will be announced once they have confirmed their participation.
The Federal University of Santa Catarina, (UFSC):
The Federal University is ranked as the 5th best in South America. Not only does it not charge fees for students, but it actually offers generous maintenance bursaries to a significant number of postgraduate students. There is a campus map on the fourth page of the following website, http://antiga.ufsc.br/paginas/mapa_ufsc.php and the Conference will be located in the CCE building which is just to the left of the centre of the map.
Florianopolis is an internationally recognised tourist destination and some participants may be tempted to stay on after the conference to experience Xmas on the beach. The airport, the city, the state government and the federal university are situated all on an island, evocatively called the 'Island of Exile', which is some 50km long by 25Km wide. The island has 42 beautiful beaches, all good for sunbathing and many for swimming and surfing. For some enticing pictures of the island log on to 'Brazil's Paradise Island' http://jangaplanet.hubpages.com/hub/Brazil-Paradise-Island-Florianopolis, and for a more detailed, sober description see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Florian%C3%B3polis.
The island was first visited by Europeans shortly after Pedro Alvarez de Cabral 'discovered' Brazil and claimed it for Portugal in 1500 and it became a popular place for ships to stop and restock with food and water. Indeed one of the island's most popular beaches is named Ingleses in memory of a supposed shipwreck of English pirates in the 17th century. However the rock carving from which we derived our e logo predates the arrival of the Portuguese by at least 1,000 years, http://riozinho.net/uma-historia-de-enigmas-belezas/.
Travel to Florianopolis:
Florianopolis is some 50 minutes by air from Sao Paulo and some 75 minutes from Rio, which are the two main International airports, but people can also fly directly into other Brazilian cities: the capital, Brasilia, has stunning public buildings designed by the architect Niemeyer; Porto Alegre would be an entry point for people who decided to visit Argentina, Chile or Uruguay first, while some may prefer to enter the country in one of the northern beach resorts of Natal, Fortaleza, Recife and Salvador.
Florianopolis airport is a mere10km from both the City Centre and the University, so Conference delegates can reach both quickly by taxi. If there is a group arriving on the same flight Acoriana can arrange for a van to meet them.

The Sharks got their Super Rugby campaign off to a winning start on Saturday with a 29-22 victory over the Cheetahs in Bloemfontein.
The Sharks got their Super Rugby campaign off to a winning start on Saturday with a 29-22 victory over the Cheetahs in Bloemfontein.
The Sharks led 16-5 at the interval and 26-5 early in the second half but two tries from the Cheetahs in the final quarter set up a nail biting finish.
The Sharks ruled in the first hour thanks to their dominant pack and the outstanding form of fly-half Pat Lambie, but the hosts came flying back in the last 20 minutes and threatened to cause an upset as the Sharks struggled to contain their free-running style.
Lambie succeeded with seven out of seven kicks and completely overshadowed his Cheetahs counterpart Johan Goosen. The latter returned after an absence of four months due to injury, but his first game this season was all but spectacular.
Goosen failed with kicks at goal and his positional play was also left wanting.
The visitors started at a frantic pace and controlled most of the possession in the first couple of minutes.
The visitors were bullying the Cheetahs off the ball at the breakdown area, but it was the hosts who drew first blood via flanker Philip van der Walt. The Cheetahs put together a rolling maul from a line-out and Van der Walt burst over with his team-mates on his back.
The Sharks continued to put the Cheetahs defence to the test and got some useful possession from the scrums, but initial attacks were botched by bad decision making and forward passes.
The Durban finally got on the board when Lambie kicked a penalty after Cheetahs flanker Frans Viljoen infringed at the ruck.
The fly-half kicked another couple of penalties shortly after, with the Cheetahs penalised for hands in the ruck on their own goalline.
Sharks winger Lwazi Mvovo scored his side's first try in the 30th minute when he pounced on a ball tapped by Ryan Kankowski from the visitors' line-out and ran through to touch down under the uprights. Lambie converted to give the visitors a 16-5 half-time lead.
Goosen tried to settle things down with a penalty in the second period, but he pulled the attempt to the left.
The Sharks looked better on the attack and flanker Marcell Coetzee scored a try from a rolling maul in the 46th minute, which Lambie converted.
Lambie kicked another penalty shortly after to give the Sharks a comfortable cushion.
The Cheetahs continued to fight and put together some attacking phases of play, with flanker Lappies Labuschagne scoring in the corner. Goosen converted to leave the Cheetahs 14 points adrift.
Centre Johann Sadie reduced the deficit to just seven points when he broke the Sharks defence and dove over in the corner, with Goosen again converting.
The Cheetahs' tails were up and they put the Sharks under immense pressure, and Goosen kicked a penalty in the 67th minute to bring his side within four points.
Lambie, however, answered in kind to regain a seven-point advantage and secure the win, leaving the Cheetahs to settle for a losing bonus point.
The scorers:
For Cheetahs:
Tries: van der Walt, Labuschagne, Sadie
Cons: Goosen 2
Pens: Goosen
For Sharks:
Tries: Mvovo, Coetzee
Cons: Lambie 2
Pens: Lambie 5
Cheetahs: 15 Hennie Daniller, 14 Willie le Roux, 13 Johann Sadie, 12 Robert Ebersohn, 11 Raymond Rhule, 10 Johan Goosen, 9 Piet van Zyl, 8 Philip van der Walt, 7 Lappies Labuschagne, 6 Frans Viljoen, 5 Francois Uys, 4 Lood de Jager, 3 Lourens Adriaanse, 2 Adriaan Strauss (c), 1 Trevor Nyakane.
Replacements: 16 Ryno Barnes, 17 Coenie Oosthuizen, 18 Waltie Vermeulen, 19 Boom Prinsloo, 20 Sarel Pretorius, 21 Elgar Watts, 22 Ryno Benjamin.
The Sharks: 15 Louis Ludik, 14 JP Pietersen, 13 Paul Jordaan, 12 Francois Steyn (c), 11 Lwazi Mvovo, 10 Patrick Lambie, 9 Cobus Reinach, 8 Ryan Kankowski, 7 Marcell Coetzee, 6 Jacques Botes, 5 Franco van der Merwe, 4 Anton Bresler, 3 Jannie du Plessis, 2 Craig Burden, 1 Tendai Mtawarira.
Replacements: 16 Kyle Cooper, 17 Wiehahn Herbst, 18 Pieter-Steph du Toit, 19 Jean Deysel, 20 Charl McLeod, 21 Meyer Bosman, 22 Odwa Ndungane.

Made my feet look big
"I have size 11 feet, and won't buy boots or shoes that make my feet look bigger than they already are. These boots are absolutely gorgeous-but unfortunately the front of the boot is elongated in such a way that it makes my foot look much bigger than my other boots. Sadly, will have to return."

14 dead, 80 injured in Mexico oil company blast
MEXICO CITY - Mexico's state-owned oil company says 14 people have died and 80 are injured in an office building explosion at its headquarters in the capital.
An explosion at the main headquarters of Petroleos Mexicanos, or Pemex, also damaged three floors of the building, sending hundreds into the streets and a large plume of smoke over the skyline.
There was no immediate cause given for the explosion which occurred in the basement of an administrative building next to the iconic, 52-story Pemex tower.

Old-timey Wall Street bond dealers are stepping back from the junk-bond and corporate-bond markets. Exchange-traded funds are taking their place.
In fact, it turns out that this role switch is already pretty nearly complete, according to some remarkable Fitch Ratings numbers.
Fitch finds dealer inventories in investment-grade corporate bonds have shrunk to $9 billion as of the end of June, whereas the five biggest corporate-bond ETFs have ballooned to more than five times that, $46 billion.
For high-yield bonds, it's an ETF advantage of about four times — $28 billion versus dealers' $7 billion. (ETFs are still small potatoes in muni bonds, where Fitch finds the $13 billion in ETFs is just 0.35% of a $3.7 trillion market, which is also true forthe massive Treasury market, according to the study by Robert Grossman, Martin Hansen and Jonathan Boise.)
The junk-and-corporate dealers-versus-ETFs figures give an idea why BlackRock (BLK) iShares executive Mark Wiedman recently argued amid the bond selloff that many ETFs are becoming "the true market." It is, apparently, literally true, at least in the sense that ETFs have taken on much, even most, of the inventory dealers used to hold.
So if you're wondering who's running these markets during a selloff … the answer may be, You are, ETF investor!
This goes a long way toward explaining the exaggerated moves in bond ETF prices this year. For several weeks midyear, ETFs were the place to watch for "price discovery," as the industry terms it. Since the ETF was trading heavily and continuously, every single day, their prices were much fresher than the estimates of the underlying bond prices.
This phenomenon of ETFs serving as the cutting edge of bond prices is one of the reasons ETF owners can do worse than simply standing back and doing nothing during a selloff. You'll likely pay dearly for trying to squeeze out the door at the same time as the herd.
Though ETFs are still a small piece of the junk- and corporate-bond markets, they punch above their weight when it comes to trading volume, for the simple reason that they're the most liquid thing on the market during a selloff. Goes without saying, it's going to be costly to sell something that seemingly everybody else also wants to sell at the moment.
It just goes to confirm the old adage that nothing is free. Investors since the financial crisis seem to value liquidity over all else, especially when it comes at the push of a button. But liquidity isn't free, and just because you can use it, doesn't necessarily mean you should.
For corporate bonds, the big ETFs are iShares iBoxx $ InvesTop Investment Grade Corp. Bond Fund (LQD), iShares Core Total U.S. Bond Market ETF (AGG) and iShares 1-3 Year Credit Bond ETF (CSJ). For junk bonds, it's iShares iBoxx $ High Yield Corporate Bond Fund (HYG) and SPDR Barclays Capital High Yield Bond ETF (JNK).

Acting Littleton City Attorney Kirsten Crawford will likely drop the "acting" from her title after city council votes March 6 on whether to appoint her to the top spot.
A news release issued March 1 by the city left little doubt that the vote will be in Crawford's favor.
"The city council is thrilled to welcome Kirsten as our city attorney," Mayor Debbie Brinkman said in the release. "She is a skilled litigator with exceptional experience in municipal law. Over the past three years, she has done exemplary work as our assistant and then acting city attorney. Kirsten is as passionate about her work as she is committed to Littleton, and we are looking forward to a bright future together."
The position was the topic of at least two recent executive sessions, though council originally said there would be a public study session on the process to replace former City Attorney Suzanne Staiert, whom council fired last September on the same day she filed an EEOC complaint against the city. This week, Staiert became the state's new deputy secretary of state.
"The council discussed, in executive session pursuant to state law, options for negotiating for a contract attorney and in house," City Manager Michael Penny said in an e-mail to the Littleton Independent. "The council, as you now see, chose to stay with an in-house attorney."
Traditionally, council has retained the headhunter firm Mercer Group to search for their appointees, as they did with Staiert and Penny.
"Council chose not to use a search firm," said Penny. "The council was very pleased with Kirsten's background and interview and decided to move forward with a contract offer to her for the position."
In the news release, Crawford said she is looking forward to the challenge.
"I am so excited at the opportunity to guide the city council and staff through the myriad of legal matters encountered in local government," she said. "The leadership provided by the city council and city manager, combined with the skill and the dedication of our employees, make Littleton one of the best cities in Colorado to live and work."
Crawford's appointment rounds out a string of changes at the upper levels of the city during the last year, including Penny, who replaced Jim Woods after he retired last year. Glen Van Nimwegen took over the community-development department that same month. After the November elections, Brinkman replaced Doug Clark as mayor, and Bruce Beckman and Jerry Valdes joined council. Phil Cortese, former deputy city manager, resigned in December.
"The city organization is moving forward on all cylinders," Penny said. "I believe morale is up and staff is excited to be coming to work and providing an excellent level of service to the community. The council is focused on the challenges and incredible opportunities ahead for all of us."
Finding a new assistant city attorney will be the topic of a discussion between the city council and city attorney, said Penny.
"We would expect this to be a collaborative approach with all, including the city manager," he said.
Staiert hired Crawford as the assistant city attorney in January 2009, and she's been the acting city attorney since October 2011. She was an assistant attorney for Arapahoe County from 2004 to 2008.
Prior to that, she worked with the Adams County Attorney's Office and in private practice. She at one time was a judicial clerk for the Honorable Raymond Dean Jones with the Colorado Court of Appeals.
Crawford earned her juris doctor from the University of Denver College of Law. She earned her bachelor's degree in Asian studies from DePauw University and is a graduate of Kansai Gaidai, University of Foreign Studies in Osaka, Japan.
Crawford's annual salary will be $133,428.

Security Council Reform: Statement by Ambassador Herman Schaper on behalf of Belgium and the Netherlands
Statement by H.E. Ambassador Herman Schaper
Permanent Representative of the Kingdom of the Netherlands
to the United Nations
on behalf of Belgium and the Netherlands
to the General Assembly on the issue of
"The Uniting for Consensus for Security Council Reform"
New York, 21 February 2012
Mr. Chairman,
I have the pleasure to speak on behalf of Belgium and the Netherlands.
First of all I would like to thank you for convening this meeting. Our last meeting on the 26th of January was productive and constructive in the sense that it led to a frank exchange of views, shedding light on the views among the membership on the G4 proposal for Security Council Reform. We hope that the meeting today and the ones to follow, will be as fruitful.
Today, we take a closer look at the Uniting for Consensus letter of the 6th of September that sets out general principles for Security Council Reform. Many of these general principles are supported by Belgium and the Netherlands, and in fact by the broader membership. There is indeed an urgent need for a comprehensive reform of the Security Council.
We also subscribe to the principle that any outcome of this long debate should be supported by the largest possible majority. Full consensus might be too ambitious, and yes, the formal criterion is ratification by two-thirds of the members of the GA, including the Permanent Members, but the credibility and effectiveness of the Council will undoubtedly be strengthened if the reform is supported by a larger majority than that.
If we really want to come to a broadly supported reform of the Security Council, there will have to be a readiness from all sides to look at compromise solutions. This will not be easy, but only by finally starting a real negotiation process will we find out how far we can come.
Therefore, we welcome the eagerness for compromise expressed in the Uniting for Consensus group's letter of September 6. Belgium and the Netherlands hope that this spirit of compromise will characterise the conduct of all groupings and member states in the coming discussions and negotiations.
Mr. Chairman,
In its Note Verbale on behalf of the Uniting for Consensus countries of the 15th of February, Italy drew our attention to the Colombian-Italian proposal of January 2010 for enlargement of the Council with longer-term seats and additional regular non-permanent seats. This excludes, if we understand the proposal correctly, new permanent members contrary to the proposals from the G4 and the African Group. Although this proposal contains certainly interesting elements, it requires further clarification and discussion.
Firstly, in our calculation the total size of the enlarged Council in this proposal comes down to at least 26 seats: 5 longer term seats and 6 regular non-permanent seats, 11 extra seats in total. Does this mean UfC opts for a large Council, which would see an increase in size of 70% or even more?
Secondly, as regards to option (b): term of two years with possibility of two re-elections. Would there not be a risk that this would lead to ongoing election campaigns while being member of the Council?
Thirdly, would countries, which run in the proposed new category, also be eligible to run for election for a regular non-permanent seat? Or do countries have to choose their category from the outset and is swapping categories impossible?
Fourthly, regarding the expansion of the regular non-permanent seats: what would be the impact on an already complicated system of the introduction of additional categories based on the size of states? Would for instance flip-flopping between one's regional group and one's size group be possible or would countries choose one of the groups from the outset?
Fifthly, as regards to arrangements for representation, do we understand it correctly that elections to all these seats will take place within the regional groups without an election in the General Assembly or with only a formal role for the General Assembly? And could this lead to diverging practices among the different regional groups?
These are five rather specific questions that we would like to ask to the representatives of the Uniting for Consensus today.
We would like to reiterate our position that REV. 3 reflects in our view all positions and proposals as put forward by Member States up to this stage, and that we would welcome further streamlining this text in order to make it a workable basis for negotiations.
Mr. Chairman,
One overarching principle that remains crucial for Belgium and the Netherlands is effectiveness of the Security Council. We should not forget that, in the end, this whole reform should lead to an efficient Council that can adequately respond to events and crisis in a rapidly changing world.
We are convinced that under your able chairmanship and with the support of the PGA, we will be able to finally make further progress. Only that way will we be able to preserve the credibility of the United Nations and improve the legitimacy of the Security Council.
Thank you.

More than half of the elementary schools throughout Douglas County have a community garden tended by students and staff. Only one boasts a chicken coop.
Constructed this summer at Heritage Elementary School in Highlands Ranch as part of two Eagle Scout projects, the coop and accompanying run — built from recycled material and discount wood — are now home to a dozen birds, including Salmon Faverolle, Speckled Sussex, Rhode Island Reds and Plymouth Barred Rocks.
What began as an idea sparked by health teacher Sue Antonsen and a group of fifth-graders on the school's farming committee has taken full flight. Antonsen, whose wheels started turning this past school year when 4-H members brought in some eggs to the school's third-grade classrooms for the students to hatch, now sees an opportunity where the students can learn a multitude of lessons.
"I thought, 'Wouldn't it be amazing if we were able to keep the chickens that they hatch and raise them in the garden,'" Antonsen said. "The kids approached the principal after I warned him we were coming and he was all for it."
Once it was approved by the principal, the students — led by now sixth-graders Benicio Archuleta and Madi Morris — put together a PowerPoint presentation for county officials who came to the school for a special hearing.
After hearing the students' plans to keep the coop clean, put in protective ground wire and cover the structures to keep predators out, as well as understand that the chickens would be quiet with the exception of when they laid eggs, the county approved the request of students to have between 10 and 12 animals, instead of the four chickens typically allowed at a Highlands Ranch residence.
After that, Boy Scouts Nick Robert and Spencer Jezek each volunteered to build one of the structures as their respective Eagle Scout project. Robert, a senior at Highlands Ranch High School with plans to study architectural engineering in college, worked on the coop for four weekends, finishing up July 13. Jezek, a freshman at Rock Canyon, led a team of volunteers in putting together the run and laying the protective ground wire, using recyclable materials from the school's old greenhouse.
"It's really interesting to see how they like it," Robert said. "When we watched the first chicken hop up the steps and go in, it was really pretty exciting."
And while the chickens all get comfortable in their new home over the summer, Antonsen said plans for the fall call for teaching about sustainability as students use scraps from the cafeteria to supplement the chicken feed, as well as to turn into compost to add nutrients to the garden.
"It takes a lot of responsibility to take care of chickens," said sixth-grader Jared Mata.
As per funding, the structures were taken care of by the Boy Scouts, and everything else the chickens need in the future will be paid for through the sale of eggs.

- About the brand
Cricket Carbon Combs are some of the lightest, strongest and most durable combs in the professional industry. Because of the composition of the carbon material, they are completely static free. This eliminates fly away hair during the cutting process.
The Cricket collection launched over 30 years ago with just one brush, and quickly expanded the line becoming a stylist favorite. Today, Cricket designs professional hair dryers, flat irons, combs, brushes and accessories for salon and everyday use that will blow you away. Hugely popular, Cricket products include wins for American Salon Professional's Choice awards as well as BehindtheChair.com's Stylist Choice awards.
I'm Not A StylistI do love these combs. I have been using cheap ones that break so easily and I have Fine Hair. So I decided to try the cricket stylist carbon. They looked very sturdy (which they are), I liked the price and that its stated the are completely static free (WhooooHoooo!!!). The only disappointing thing I can say is, when I use the combs they still created static but then again I am not a stylist so I am not using them the way they would and the static only happens when I release the hair from the combs when I try teasing my hair or while using drying my hair. Over all I would buy again.May 2, 2013Roe / United StatesHAIR TYPEDark Brown / Normal Hair / Fine or Thin Hair

He is, in fact, crouching behind some bushes in Reese Witherspoon's Ojai, California ranch (literal, not metaphor) until this whole "world knowing your girlfriend cheated on you" thing blows over. Advertisement They've been friends since they starred in Water For Elephants together. Oh, and she's pregnant right now. I'm sure they will stay up all night and speak with cripplingly-honest candor about life and love and he will bond with her daughter Ava and then Reese will give birth at an inconvenient time, since this sounds so much like the premise of an overwritten indie film.The goats, if you were interested, are named George and Martha Washington because YOLO. Advertisement [Us Weekly]Meanwhile, Jodie Foster emerges as the only sane person in all this, comforting Kristen Stewart because she is a 22-year-old who made a mistake and is currently being hated by the entire world. Oh, sorry, I mean she's a big giant terrible skank from Skanktown, boo. [Radar Online]And Kristen dumped Rupert Sanders via text just hours after those incriminating photos were released. [The Mirror] Giuliana Rancic is getting parenting advice from fucking Kris Jenner, of all people. Says Rancic: "Kris Jenner is like my second mother. [She] gives me the greatest advice. You'll email her one question, one line, and she'll respond in four paragraphs. She's the most thorough, amazing woman." Yes, the woman who tried to hawk the first image of her grandchild to the press (and would sell her own daughter's souls to Cat Fancy if they had the cash) is the very paragon of motherhood. [Us Weekly] In case we have all forgotten that the Internet lies sometimes, Emma Watson has refuted the rumors that Hermione Granger and the Chamber of Ben-Wah Balls would be coming to a theater near you: she won't be starring in Fifty Shades of Grey. "I haven't read the book, I haven't a read a script, nothing. There are so many movies you become attached to when I've literally never even received a phone call... Just because there are 60 articles on the Internet doesn't mean it's any less true than if there are three or four." Ahh! Every time you say you don't believe in the Internet, an Internet writer dies! I'm mellllllllttttting. [Entertainment Weekly] Jason Segel will be leaving How I Met Your Mother after the eighth season wraps. He says he's sick of playing "the nice guy" and wants to get back to working blue. "I've hit my thirties, the TV show that I've been doing for eight years is coming to its natural end, I'm feeling much more like, 'OK, now it's time for phase three.' It's time I think." Which means that he's gonna play Christian Grey in Fifty Shades of Grey, obviously. You heard it here first, from the Internet, which is a holy bastion of truth and glory. [Musicrooms.net] Um, this is the trailer for The Big Wedding, starring Diane Keaton, Robert De Niro, Susan Sarandon, Robin Williams, Katherine Heigl, Amanda Seyfried and Topher Grace. I just want Diane Keaton to be cool again. She lost me circa Because I Said So, right around the time the music swelled and that dude told Mandy Moore's character that he loved her because she "always smells like cake batter."Eminem is the most popular person of all time, lies Facebook.

Treating it differently from your core enterprise data is essential.
Like most corporations, the Walt Disney Co. is swimming in a rising sea of Big Data: information collected from business operations, customers, transactions, and the like; unstructured information created by social media and other Web repositories, including the Disney home page itself and sites for its theme parks, movies, books, and music; plus the sites of its many big business units, including ESPN and ABC.
"In any given year, we probably generate more data than the Walt Disney Co. did in its first 80 years of existence," observes Bud Albers, executive vice president and CTO of the Disney Technology Shared Services Group. "The challenge becomes what do you do with it all?"
Albers and his team are in the early stages of answering their own question with an economical cluster-computing architecture based on a set of cost-effective and scalable technologies anchored by Apache Hadoop, an open-source, Java-based distributed file system based on Google File System and developed by Apache Software Foundation. These still-emerging technologies allow Disney analysts to explore multiple terabytes of information without the lengthy time requirements or high cost of traditional business intelligence (BI) systems.
This issue of the Technology Forecast examines how Apache Hadoop and these related technologies can derive business value from Big Data by supporting a new kind of exploratory analytics unlike traditional BI. These software technologies and their hardware cluster platform make it feasible not only to look for the needle in the haystack, but also to look for new haystacks. This kind of analysis demands an attitude of exploration—and the ability to generate value from data that hasn't been scrubbed or fully modeled into relational tables.
Using Disney and other examples, this first article introduces the idea of exploratory BI for Big Data. The second article examines Hadoop clusters and technologies that support them (page 22), and the third article looks at steps CIOs can take now to exploit the future benefits (page 36). We begin with a closer look at Disney's still-nascent but illustrative effort.

ASHBURN, Va. — Does Pierre Garcon expect to be able to exploit a probably rusty Seattle Seahawks cornerback Brandon Browner in his first game since a four-game suspension for violating the league's policy on performance-enhancing drugs?
"I couldn't even tell you his first name, really, so I couldn't tell you if he's going to be rusty or not,'' Garcon said.
BROWNS NOSING: Cleveland has lead for Chip Kelly
'CHEATER': Redskin on Richard Sherman
Added receiver Leonard Hankerson: "If he hasn't been working during the time off, we'll take advantage of that.
"We're not worried about what they've got going on over there. We have a quality group of guys who can all go out and make plays. We can't make this bigger than it is. They have a great defense. If we have all 11 guys playing on the same page, it'll be hard to stop us.''
The smaller, faster Redskins receivers insist they won't be intimidated by Seattle's tall, nasty, trash-talking cornerback tandem of Browner and Richard Sherman in Sunday's NFC wild-card game.
While Browner has been inactive, Sherman won his drug appeal last week on a technicality that overturned a four-game suspension that would have knocked him out of the postseason for the Seahawks (11-5).
Defensive tackle Kedric Golston made his opinion on Sherman clear to USA TODAY Sports when he called Sherman "a cheater'' on Friday.
Expect plenty of extra-curricular activity and smack talk between Browner (6-4), Sherman (6-3) and Robert Griffin III's collection of big-play receivers who are out to burn them.
"Trying to jam is a risk,'' Garcon said. "They have longer arms. You have to knock them down. We have to be physical, too — get their hands off of us and run our routes. We have a lot of speed.''
And the Redskins receivers are aware how Sherman disrespected them when he told USA TODAY Sports on Wednesday that none of them worry him. The Redskins are on a mission to change his mind.
"We've shown a lot of things we can do and diversity — whether it's as run or pass blockers, catching the ball, we're pretty balanced all the way around,'' Garcon said. "We've shown everything we can do. We'll be looking forward to whatever kind of game it is.''
The Redskins (10-6) are 9-1 in games when Garcon has been healthy enough to play since tearing a ligament in his foot during the opening win against New Orleans. He is the deep threat who opens up the read-option running lanes for tailback Alfred Morris and Griffin, the quarterback.
Garcon has caught 33 passes for 475 yards with three touchdowns during the last six games of the Redskins' seven-game winning streak. The former Indianapolis Colt, who signed a five-year, $42.5-million free-agent deal in the offseason, has caught 26 passes for 363 yards with three touchdowns in four postseason games for the Colts. That includes an 11-catch, 151-yard, one-touchdown performance in a 30-17, 2009 AFC Championship win against the New York Jets.
Garcon is helped by underneath threats Josh Morgan, Santana Moss and Hankerson.
Facing the Seahawks' physical corners "will be good matchup, a good battle,'' Garcon said. "They're going to play their game. We're going to play our game. We're going to see what we have to do to make plays and score points.''

Cheers for the underdog!
Loyola University Chicago Men's Soccer, the No. 6 seeded team in the Horizon League turned out a victory against Cleveland State University Tuesday evening. The Ramblers defeated the Vikings 1-0 and will advance to the Horizon League Semi-Finals.
"Just a month ago CSU beat us 4-0 and it's tough for a team to turn it around and win, especially at their home field, but that's exactly what we did. We all played for each other and it was great," said sophomore forward Enrique Garcia.
Ramblers will train hard all week to defeat Valparaiso said Garcia. "More importantly we'll become mentally focused as a team for the biggest game of the year. Our senior leadership will take care of that."
Junior forward Eric Nock thinks the Rambers are ready to take on the Valparaiso this Friday. "We are playing the best soccer that we have played all year lately and it is at the perfect time, we have a nice win streak going," said Nock, "As for Valpo, we are going to take this momentum and confidense there on friday and hopefuly repeat tonights performance."
Here's the story from Loyola Ramblers:
CLEVELAND, Ohio – Labeled as the No. 6 seed in the Horizon League Tournament, Loyola University Chicago was the underdog team, but the Ramblers showed up strong when they took to the pitch in Cleveland, Ohio tonight and came away with a win. The Ramblers (6-11-1, 3-5 HL) defeated the Vikings (9-9-1, 5-2-1 HL), 1-0 to advance to the Horizon League Semifinals.
At the 32:41 minute mark, sophomore Reed Patterson capitalized from six yards out and sent a header into the upper left corner. James Howe set up the play with a throw-in to Kyle Spoo. Spoo then sent a pass into the box for the assist.
Patterson's header held up for the rest of the match as Cleveland State was unable find the equalizer and stay alive in the tournament. As part of their efforts, the Vikings produced four chances in the second half, most notably a strong attempt in the 74th minute, but the Rambler defense continued its impressive streak and booted the ball away.
Cleveland State finished with both an advantage in shots (8-6) and corner kicks (7-1), while Loyola worked to catch the Vikings offsides twice. Junior Eric Nock led the Ramblers on offense with two shots in the match. Patterson, Howe and Spoo also added an attempt apiece to round out the team total of six shots on the night.
Senior goalkeeper Peter McKeown started in between the posts for the Ramblers and finished with three saves on the night to improve to 5-8-1. Cleveland State's Brad Stuver collected two saves and fell to 9-8-1 on the season.
Loyola now travels to Indiana for the Semifinal match-up against No. 1 Seed Valparaiso on Friday. The time of the contest has yet to be determined.

For Jason Roper and the Harrisburg High School football team, defining tonight's matchup against Carbondale is simple.
Win or go home.
The Bulldogs and their eighth year head coach are 4-4, needing that fifth win to qualify for the postseason.
On the same hand, Carbondale is also 4-4 as the Terriers look to make the playoffs under first year head coach Nick Hill.
Carbondale started the season 3-0, but has lost three straight heading into this Week 9 matchup, including a 32-19 loss to Marion last week.
Harrisburg was shutout last week at Herrin, and the Bulldogs come in scoring just over 16.5 points a game. HHS is giving up a little over 23 points per game on defense.
In Harrisburg's favor is the fact that Jason Roper is 6-1 all-time against Carbondale. Roper is 46-34 and is currently in his 8th year as head coach.
The Terriers last made the playoffs in 2011 under then head coach Dan Koester.
Hill, a former Du Quoin High School and SIU standout, came on board as the team's offensive coordinator this spring, but was promoted to the top position after the sudden resignation of Koester, who coached the team for five seasons.
The bad for the Bulldogs, aside from playing a South Seven opponent to close out the 2013 campaign is the fact that Harrisburg is 1-3 on the road this year, while the Terriers are 2-1.
Roper knows his squad will have to play its best football in the final week to become playoff eligible.
We just have to go out, execute, play our best game and see what happens," he said. "Carbondale is in the same boat we are and playing at their place, it's definitely going to be a tough game for us. They are twice our enrollment, they've played a tough schedule and have some very skilled athletes. They are going to give us some matchup problems we're going to have handle."
The Terriers are led by three-year starter at quarterback Nick Hoffman, who has completed 61 percent of his passes, going 202-for-124 for 1841 yards and 19 touchdowns with just one interception.
Carbondale is averaging over 31 points per game on offense and are surrendering 22.6 points per contest on defense.
Trying to put behind him a 40-0 loss at Herrin a week ago, Roper feels the Herrin game was not a true indicator of how good his ballclub his.
"They're very good defensively," Roper said. "That's one thing that goes unnoticed or coaches like myself given them enough credit for. They shut out Benton, they shut out Murphysboro and they shut us out. They've been very sound and physical. Give them credit, they took the game away from us right off the bat.
"I think we learned a lot of things from that game that should help us in our preparation for Carbondale.

H Repeat: 0.88
Learn about fabric careHOW TO CARE FOR WOOL FABRICS: Dry-cleaning is recommended, though some wools can take hand washing. Always test a swatch first if you are going to care for your wool fabrics at home rather than using a drycleaner. Many of the fine wools Mood sells online and in-store have already been "sponged," or preshrunk, but you can preshrink your wool if necessary. Mood recommends taking your uncut wool fabric to the drycleaners and asking them to steam it for you, which will safely preshrink it more effectively than you can using home methods. Mood strongly recommends test-laundering a swatch, if you plan to wash your garment or home furnishings yourself.
PLEASE NOTE: The above numbers are estimations only. Please take into account garment size, lining and fabric width.

EUREKA- Before Tuesday night's Eureka City Council meeting, an item was pulled from the agenda. That item was the recommendation by the Public Works Department for the council to authorize contract negotiations for a company to work on a phase of the Martin Slough Interceptor Project.
The project is designed to increase Eureka's Waste Water Treatment System's efficiency. While one phase of the system has been halted, the Public Works Department selected Wahlund Construction to work on another phase. City officials say an attorney with a local construction company submitted a letter to the city before Tuesday night's meeting expressing that the contract should be awarded through a competitive bid. City staff are working to determine if they are permitted to award the contract to Wahlund Construction or if it must be awarded through a competitive bid before they can put the item on a future council agenda.

Wish I bought more than one pair
"These are my favorite pair of boots. I have a hard time finding boots that fit my calves, but the elastic at the back provides some extra give and they fit perfectly. I wear them to trudge through snow and dirt every day and they only have very minor wear. I wish they still had the black ones (I originally bought taupe) in my size."

Love 'em
"I have large calves and wide feet so finding tall boots that fit is always a challenge. These boots are so perfect...they are comfortable and wide enough in the calf that I can tuck my jeans into them. I've worn them all day at work where I'm on my feet the whole time and I've worn them to shovel snow!"

Good but now wow.
"A little on the tight side in the calf area, for being a wide calf boot. Material is a little cheap looking. Overall an ok boot."

nautilus or chambered nautilus, cephalopod mollusk belonging to the sole surviving genus ( Nautilus ) of a subclass that flourished 200 million years ago, known as the nautiloids. The spirally coiled shell consists of a series of chambers; as the nautilus grows it secretes larger chambers, sealing off the old ones with thin septa. The animal lives in the largest and newest chamber, with a tubular elongation of the body, known as the siphuncle, extending through the septa to the apex of the shell. The siphuncle removes liquid from the chambers and replaces it with gas, giving the animal the buoyancy that permits it to swim (backwards except when feeding), which it accomplishes by ejecting water through a funnel.
The nautilus breathes by means of two pairs of gills; it feeds on crabs and other animals, which it catches with its long, slender tentacles (numbering more than 90) that encircle the mouth. There is a thickened area over the head, called the hood, that acts as a protective lid when the animal withdraws into the shell. The nautilus lives in deep water in the S Pacific and Indian oceans. It is active at night; during the day it stays hidden in coral crevices. It is hunted for its shell, which is used in jewelry and ornaments.
The paper nautilus, which is not a true nautilus, is a close relative of the octopus, belonging to the order Octopoda. The true nautilus is classified in the phylum Mollusca, class Cephalopoda, order Nautilida, family Nautilidae.

Skip to comments.Rush Limbaugh Greta FULL Wide-Ranging Interview
Posted on 07/30/2013 8:38:15 PM PDT by Whenifhow
Rush limbaugh Greta | Rush Limbaugh joined Greta Van Susteren for the full hour Tuesday night, and Limbaugh spent the first segment of the program bashing President Obama, sharing the "Limbaugh Theorem" for how the president governs, and taking the "slavish media" to task for not holding him accountable. He also had some choice words for Republicans capitulating too much to the Democratic agenda.
On the "phony scandals" controversy, Limbaugh admitted he was stunned that the president was able to survive 2012 with the bad economy on his back. He came up with the "Limbaugh theorem" to explain why so many people hate Obama's policies yet like him and vote for him: he's "constantly campaigning" and never governing who keeps insisting nothing that ever happens in Washington is his fault.
Limbaugh surmised that Obama could only get away with this because of the "slavish media" that will never call him out on anything. He said that most journalists are "all part of the elitist New York-Washington-Boston media academic corridor and they think they are Obama."
He admitted the 2010 midterms, while it resulted in Republican gains, were not necessarily that good for the party, because no one was "articulating an agenda" and all the Republican votes were "anti-Obama" votes, not votes for a viable alternative. He also slammed Republican leadership for brushing aside the tea party and "its conservative base on a number of issues," saying the big problem with the GOP is too much capitulation to what the Democrats want. Why doesn't the Republican Party embrace them, bring them in and try to grow and have at least come up with a way to reach out and attach themselves to these people, a majority of voters? Instead they're capitulating with what the Democrats want. And not just on this, but on immigration, amnesty, whatever you want to call it.
Watch the full segment below, via Fox News:
Rush Limbaugh Greta FULL Wide-Ranging Interview
Reading Twitter posts. Sounds like it was a good interview.
" - - - Instead they're capitulating with what the Democrats want. - - - - "
Speaker John "Cave-In" Boehner is the Welfare Democrat's favorite RINO.
Great show.
I wish Rush would throw his hat in the ring for 2016. He's as politically smart as anyone we've seen in the last 50 years. He should test the waters and see if he has the support. He could at least give it a shot and let the chips fall where they may. His country needs him to save it.
People are ready for a new direction and it would fry the liberals brains (what's left of them). Never mind he's never held any office he's already created more wealth than Obozo could ever dream of. Only problem is, would he even take the pay cut?
Limbaugh/Palin 2016 anyone?
I would vote for that ticket in a heartbeat. I guarantee that Rush and Sarah between them know enough good people to have a superlative administration. And Rush, being the smart guy he is, would have Sarah Palin so busy with putting things right that it would look like a double presidency! hellya! I'd vote for that ticket and contribute time and money for their campaigning.
The only problem with a Limbaugh candidacy is that he would not be able to endorse himself until it was too late and Karl Rove has another Rino locked in for the nomination.
Thanks for posting this.
I'd give my heart and soul to that campaign.... [Sigh]
I wish Rush would at least give it some thought. I think he could actually win.
Even if you don't win it's never wrong to try to save your country from evil.
Rush has my ears nearly every day. What he said tonight was not new nor different from what he says every day.
And therein lies the problem: he's singing to the choir. Every day. Same choir. (although it's always fun to see the voice I listen to. And he's looking great, by the way).
We need (somehow) to get voices like Rush's to other choirs. Appearing on Fox (same choir) won't do it.
Failing that, his words are becoming meaningless, I fear, as they have been said since 1989 or so by him to us. (albeit, 20 million of us)
Could you just imagine a Rush vs Hillary debate?
Just imagine 20 million of us ALL campaigning for him.
Let's be real: he will never run for an office. Too much baggage. He needs to find a new tune to get 20 million of us energized. Other wise, same old same old.
Sorry to be a poop on his message, but it and us are not reaching out (as happened in the 1994 elections or when the Tea Party was "hot").
No man or woman could possibly fix the mess we're in. It's so far gone that it's going to have to all come tumbling or crashing down before it can even begin to be repaired.
Actually Limbaugh spoke to quite a number of folks he doesn't
reach on a regular basis. Unfortunately a cable channel such
as FOX doesn't command the viewership that the alphabet
networks do. And, of course, on any network a Rush interview
would consist of one hour of him having to explain why he
deserves to breathe the same air as the rest of the human race.
Absolutely no alphabet network interview toadie would throw
out topics and allow Rush to run with them like Greta did. That
is why he won't do TV interviews as a rule. I would, however,
like to see him appear on a few panel format programs where
he would have the opportunity to demonstrate the art of
challenging the idiotic premises and statements of the libturd
For us dittoheads, Rush said nothing really new last night, which is like reading the Ten Commandments on a granite monument & then coming back later to see that nothing on it has changed.
For those of you in Rio Linda, I mean that about
Rush in a positive way. But the whole show was worth watching just to see the awe on Greta's face, as though she were thinking, "Everything I have ever been told about this man is a lie!"
Running spots during DWTS, America gots no talent, Bravo channel, or American Idle is the only way to get air time with a certain demographic (uniformed or stupid people).
GREAT Image, simply GREAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Can you do Obama posing in a T-Shirt with the Jolly Roger (Skull and crossed bones) with words underneath:
I got the idea from a T-Shirt I saw that had the words:
The inertia of the RINO Wing mindset of the Republican Party has kept the Welfare Democrats in power after the National defeats of Dole, McCain and Romney.
One would think that those 3 painful losses would be called an out by the Republican Party.
What has happened is that the Republican faithful just chalk them up to 3 foul balls.
What is lacking is the desire to judge each action or inaction on the merit of whether or not it is good for the Country.
As a result, our political system has been in the Roman end times where the decadent rulers just try to appease the masses by giving them stuff.
Our stuff is the Welfare Borrow and Spend Shadow Federal Government that consumes 40 % of the Total Federal Government spending.
We beat our chests and complain about our high taxes that go to pay for this Welfare Shadow Government.
The truth is that not one penny of our taxes goes to pay for Welfare, as ALL of Welfare is financed by borrowing from our Grandchildrens descendants.
Thus, we have two Federal Governments: one that is financed mainly by income from those 54 % who still pay Personal Federal Income Taxes, and the other financed by debt which must be repaid with interest by our Grandchildrens descendants.
None of the above is recognized as being valid by those that we elect to govern us.
If the economic reality cannot be clearly communicated to our sorry Federal Politicians, then the Financial Markets will do so at the worst possible time.
My second point is that of leadership. This is a generational topic, and thus difficult to analyze.
History will show that the Post-WW2 generations in America produced poorly motivated patriotic political leaders, with few exceptions.
History will also show that we, as a Nation, lack the will to punish our politicians who violate the ethics, morality, financial obligations or the written Laws of our Nation.
For example, who was the last US President who went to jail for violating his oath of Office for violating the US Constitution? BTW, he/she would be the next one and also be the first.
The third point is the desire to fail. RINOs are masters at it, and for that reason have kept (for FIVE YEARS) as their Speaker of the US House none other than John Cave-In Boehner.
With Sobber John at the helm, there will be no Special Investigation of the Benghazi Massacre, IRS harassment of Welfare Democrat opponents, legal pursuit of Contempt of the House AG Holder, or year to year reduction in Total Federal Spending, etc.
B. Hussein Obamas legacy will remain intact and in effect as long as Cave-In Boehner is kept as Speaker by the sorry House RINOs.
RINOs have their defenses up to label as Wacko, dangerous, or radical any challenge to their dedicated goal of failing to act in the best interests of the Country, and to always Cave-In to the Welfare Democrats.
Blackmail to them is a badge of honor, as they laugh their way to a gold-plated retirement paid for by the debt that they have created.
BTW, think about the above comments the next time that someone tries to con you into believing that we Americans still have a Federal Government that we can be proud of.
He is only singing to the choir because the media limits him the same way it works against conservatives.
IMO, just the way liberals have been boycotting and putting pressure on conservatives; maybe all the conservatives should do the same things to reporters and the companies that sponsor them.
Hit them in the wallet for the next ten years and see if that changes up things.
In fact, few people have a liberal view, but the press is so overwhelming that you would think they were a vast majority.
IMO, there needs to be a peaceful coordinated effort to boycott sponsors of liberal media. Work it!
Stinkprogress and other lefty websites are trying to spin his comments on Detroit into "Rush says Detroit failed because blacks drove out the whites" . . . this is beyond tiresome.

|Located in southeast Portland just north of the Reed College campus, Reedwood was platted in 1955. Over the next decade and a half, the neighborhood developed into an eclectic mix of well-designed and built mid-century homes. Constructed during an era when most residential developments were truly in the 'burbs, there are about 150 homes on the windy streets of Reedwood, providing a suburban feel to a neighborhood that is within 10 minutes of downtown Portland. The neighborhood also faces an uncertain future as local zoning regulations have created the potential to dramatically change the landscape of Reedwood predominately through infill.
