DevDusk June 2009 in Munich
By user13366078 on Jun 08, 2009
Last week, DevDusk June 2009 took place at the Sun office in Munich.
What is DevDusk, you ask?
To me, it's the ultimate geek after-work party: Every once in a while, developers gather after their work day and chat about current cool technologies. Think after work mini-unconference. There are DevDusks in Frankfurt and in Munich, and this time we were lucky to sponsor the latest incarnation out of the Sun Startup Essentials program.
After some food and beers, we had a nice variety of talks:
Wolfgang Stief talked about one of the coolest hobbies: Collecting and restoring old computers. Not just C-64s and Commodore Amigas, no, the real stuff: Control Data Mainframes, Crays, etc., including a project to build a full tube-based computer. He shared a lot of funny stories involving the many obstacles in transporting, reparing and operating huge digital beasts. Check out the cray-cyber.org website and Wolfgang's collection of photos on Flickr.
Wolfram Kriesing from uxebu.com introduced us to EventNinja, a clever way to leverage free Cloud services (Google Docs, Yahoo! Pipes) to create fully functional, intelligent and customizable widgets, without the need to operate any server infrastructure by yourself other than a simple static web server. Very cool and a glimpse of a whole generation of clever, light-weight distributed cloud widgets. I'm working on a similar thing myself, more on that in a future blog post.
And yes, I got to present something too. I used the opportunity to introduce the group to my personal definition of Cloud Computing, the Sun Cloud, highlighting it's REST APIs and encouraging the audience to play around with Zembly while they're waiting for the Sun Cloud to become publicly available.
Slides, links and other material are available from the DevDusk Munich event page, feel free to check them out (some may be in Germany, but what's a little language barrier to tech people anyway?). Also, check out Gabi's blog entry on this event as well as related Twitter comments.

Marshmallow shooters
Good morning, friend,
Ever sit to watch the coffee drip into the pot, waiting for enough to fill even half a cup? Recalling this past night, wishing for more sleep…knowing that the day spreads before me, knowing this truth: when I begin my day with the Lord, no matter the amount of sleep, I still have staked a claim. This day shall be for the Lord. As the garbage truck passes by the house, one of the boy children is awake and the day begins. It must begin with the Lord. I must..
I continue to ponder the first chapter of Joshua. God keeps it simple.
8 Yes, keep this book of the Torah on your lips, and meditate on it day and night, so that you will take care to act according to everything written in it. Then your undertakings will prosper, and you will succeed. 9 Haven't I ordered you, 'Be strong, be bold'? So don't be afraid or downhearted, because Adonai your God is with you wherever you go." Joshua 1 CJB
For me, this day, this means to keep my mind securely on the Word. To meditate on the Word…
hagah– to speak with oneself, and in a low voice, as is often done by those musing.
Repetition. Repetition. Repetition.
1 How blessed are those
who reject the advice of the wicked,
don't stand on the way of sinners
or sit where scoffers sit!
2 Their delight
is in Adonai's Torah;
on his Torah they meditate
day and night.
3 They are like trees planted by streams —
they bear their fruit in season,
their leaves never wither,
everything they do succeeds. Psalm 1 CJB
Where is my delight? What does my mind meditate upon? Do I ponder more upon the fears? Do I remain fixed upon the truth of His Word?
15 (14) May the words of my mouth
and the thoughts of my heart
be acceptable in your presence,
Adonai, my Rock and Redeemer. Psalm 19 CJB
As I type, my son, my early riser, is attempting to configure his marshmallow shooter. Some of the marshmallows are stuck in the barrel of his gun. (Even though his Grandmother told him to use cornstarch with the marshmallows). So, he has tried a straw to push them out, he has tried water to wash them out, and now he is using a hairdryer to dry them out. However, had he listened to his Grandmother (you can pay me later, Mom), he would be gleefully shooting the dog, the other members of his family even at this moment.
He didn't.
God tells us to meditate on His word…we start our day worrying about ________________________ (your worry here).
God tells us to speak His truth…instead frustration pours from our mouths because our day is not looking how WE think it should look.
God tells us to meditate on it day and night…instead we are distracted by Facebook, email, Twitter..
We are clogging up our marshmallow shooters, people.
Now, my boy has gone back and listened to the advice of our wise Matriarch. His marshmallows are covered in cornstarch. Then, he decides to coat his brother and sister's bags of white fluff to help them so they do not run into the same issues as he.
So I hope by my words I may point you to our Lord, His Word and His teachings. Don't start your day with worry. Get your coffee, grab His Word and begin your day by meditating on His Word. It's all about Jesus (Haven Today). I end with this quote of Paul's today.
14 Above all these, clothe yourselves with love, which binds everything together perfectly; 15 and let the shalom which comes from the Messiah be your heart's decision-maker, for this is why you were called to be part of a single Body.
And be thankful — 16 let the Word of the Messiah, in all its richness, live in you, as you teach and counsel each other in all wisdom, and as you sing psalms, hymns and spiritual songs with gratitude to God in your hearts. 17 That is, everything you do or say, do in the name of the Lord Yeshua, giving thanks through him to God the Father. Colossians 3 CJB
Pray on. Pray on.

Combat is exactly what you will be getting with any God of War game and this is exactly what you will be getting with this game.
Lots to do.
Super Gamer Dude
Sony PSP
A lot of games make the transition from PS3 to PSP and screw everything that made them a good game into a rubbish game. This is not the case with God of War Chains of Olympus. Kratos has been saved by Ares and is now working on his way back, doing his bidding of Olympus.
This game simply starts out in Attica and Kratos is helping defend the city against the attacks of the Persian forces. You will essentially chase down the Persians' basilisk through the city, which will eventually end is an epic boss battle. Then the real story end, which I won't dare spoil it for you. It is really engaging and gives Kratos more of character which adds to the story from the first God of War.
The first thing you will notice about the game is the environments and graphics are absolutely amazing. The lighting is absolutely amazing too. The game actually looks almost as good as it did on the console. But what is more impressive is the combos work just as they did on console versions, which means you are really getting a great console game on your PSP. I mean it seems to be a mirror image of the gameplay, just like God of War for PS2.
Combat is exactly what you will be getting with any God of War game and this is exactly what you will be getting with this game. The game is pretty much straightforward, in the sense that it is linear. True there are couple secrets or times when you can go off the path, but you will quickly find your way back on the path again. Not to mention there are also times when you might find yourself surrounded by a number of enemies and you have to kill them in order to get out of a room.
While there are no new characters they do come with previous characters with various abilities. All which come with there own attacks and defenses it still works well with the game. It would have been nice to see more new enemies, but it is mixed up enough to where it is not distracting. There is always something to do in God of War Chains of Olympus, and you will always find yourself in a battle or moving through the stunning environments. Not to mention, there will be a plethora of puzzles to solve.
The boss fights were a little bit of a let down for me. I just feel that a boss should be something huge and you only really fight one that is gigantic, which is Cyclopes. The other bosses you fight don't really match the level of fun that Cyclopes was, but still the other bosses are fine, I guess.
This game lives up to all its hype and more. I really love this game and wouldn't trade it for the world. There is never a dull moment and you will try to put it down for a bit, but if you are like me will find yourself playing it into the night while you should be sleeping.

Return to List of all PHA-NHLBI Award Winners
Division of Pulmonary and Critical Care MedicineDepartment of MedicineStanford University Medical Center"The role of the Wnt/planar cell polarity pathway in pulmonary angiogenesis"NHLBI Mentored Clinical Scientist Development Award (K08)Term: July 1, 2012 – June 30, 2017
Summary of Research Project:
The role of the Wnt/planar cell polarity pathway in pulmonary angiogenesis
In 2012, Dr. de Jesus Perez was awarded an NIH K08 award to investigate a novel mechanism relevant to the regeneration of pulmonary vessels following injury. This is relevant to idiopathic pulmonary arterial hypertension (IPAH) as progressive narrowing and loss of small distal pulmonary arteries is a key pathological finding in all patients who are afflicted with this devastating disease.
Recent studies by our group and others have shown that mutations in the bone morphogenetic protein receptor (BMPR) II could contribute to vessel loss by reducing pulmonary artery endothelial cell (PAEC) survival and proliferation in response to injury but the mechanisms by which BMPRII can regulate these angiogenic responses have not been well characterized. In addition to PAECs, pericyte recruitment is critical for stabilization of newly formed vessels but their contribution to the pathogenesis of IPAH has not been well established. We have recently shown that BMP signaling promotes pulmonary angiogenesis by recruitment of two Wnt signaling pathways in PAECs: the "canonical" Wnt/β-catenin (βC) and the "non-canonical" Wnt/planar cell polarity (PCP) pathways.
Based on our preliminary studies and our review of the literature, we propose that activation of the Wnt/PCP pathway is required for pulmonary angiogenesis by 1) inducing PAEC to organize into properly aligned vascular tubes and 2) by promoting pericyte recruitment to vascular tubes to form functional blood vessels. In a series of experiments using PAECs and pericytes obtained from the lungs of healthy donors and IPAH patients, we will demonstrate that Wnt/PCP signaling is required to direct PAEC (Aim 1) and pericyte (Aim 2) behavior during angiogenesis and that loss of activity correlates with reduced pulmonary angiogenesis. Furthermore, we will complement these cell studies with work on two animal models of dysfunctional Wnt/PCP signaling that will help provide insight into the biological relevance of this pathway to compensatory angiogenesis following pneumonectomy (Aim 3).
Future studies will center on how mutations that reduce Wnt/PCP signaling can genetically interact with BMPRII mutations to promote development of IPAH and how therapeutic interventions aimed at normalizing Wnt/PCP pathway activity in PAEC and pericytes could help prevent progression and improve survival in IPAH patients by restoring their ability to regenerate lost vessels.

It's no tea party for indifferent Shrimpers! - Chelmsford City 1-1 Southend United
Brian Jeeves and friends at Melbourne Park.
In the brilliant football film, "My Summer with Des" Neil Morrissey's character Martin states, "It's nice to watch football with lovers and friends", and tonight is no exception. I add lovers, as tonight is Ed's wedding anniversary. For the umpteenth time the big lad is spending this special landmark at a football match while wife Hayley has an evening with full access to the TV controls. Still, I guess she can't complain too much, after all, on one anniversary he did take her to see Southend United Reserves. Along with Ed I am joined at tonight's pre season delicacy by Jo and her dad Brian along with Andy and Peter, but hey, this is a special night therefore I am dedicating this tale to the happy couple, Ed and Hayley.
Anyway, Southend United looked to step up the pre-season preparations at Melbourne Park, Chelmsford. Manager Phil Brown revealed that he wanted his starting XI to be up to completing at least seventy-five minutes of this latest practise game, SEVENTY-FIVE MINUTES PHILLIP? As a kid, I remember having kick abouts at the old Post Office field on Ashingdon Road that lasted for 10 hours, WITHOUT STOPPING FOR TEA!
Chelmsford City Football Club are celebrating their 75th Anniversary. Personally, I'm delighted the club have reached this milestone and settled back in the City after several years in exile at Maldon and Billericay. However, for me, their current home will never surpass those glorious Saturdays when dad and I would watch the morning session at Essex County Cricket Club then pop next door to see Southern League football at the wonderful New Writtle Street Stadium in the afternoon.
The Shrimpers started in top gear. Only three minutes had elapsed when Anthony Straker burst clear and unleashed a thundering strike past City keeper Carl Pentney giving the visitors a perfect start.
This, we believed, would be the signal for Southend to push on for a comfortable victory. Indeed, both Ryan Cresswell and John White had headed attempts cleared as pressure on the home goal mounted.
Chelmsford's first sight of goal came when former Southend man Nicky Nicolau fired just past an upright, while at the other end, Will Atkinson saw his free kick fisted away by Pentney. After City's Sam Long had tested Daniel Bentley with a low drive, Ryan Leonard wasted a glorious opportunity to double the Shrimpers lead, steering wide from close range after excellent flank play from Atkinson.
Both teams seem to find the bumpy surface a hindrance; as a result, the game became somewhat flat. Attention turned to the half time fare, but I gave the bacon roll second thoughts after sidekick Ed only gave them a 5/10 rating (6/10 with ketchup). Although food was very much our thought, the Shrimpers minds once again seemed tuned in to adding to their slender lead. Twice Pentney reacted quickly to deny Eastwood and Atkinson but it has to be said, as the half drew to a close the game had become largely uneventful. Minds had once again wondered from the respective charges on display and conversation had turned to Ed's shocking new ringtone while Jo was inquisitive as to where we'd be watching Rugby League after next Good Friday's visit to Rochdale.
The second period got underway but focus in the stand was now very much on the half time brew, a subtle blend of tea/coffee/hot chocolate and Bovril, which had the taste buds taking cover and the Food Standards Agency alerted!
Southend trialist Don Cowan tried to give the encounter a spark, his clever back heel found John White but the former Colchester man pulled his shot across the face of goal. Soon after, Anthony Straker went close to adding to his and Southend's goal tally with a terrific effort that whistled just past an upright. In the meantime, Ed discovered the root of the mystical cuppa issue. A somewhat aging tea bag was mashed into the bottom of the cup and appeared to have taken up residence there some time before hot water and a spoonful of coffee had paid a visit!
Nevertheless, there was still a football match going on in front of us. Ryan Cresswell should have done better when heading Atkinson's cross high and wide, as should Eastwood who ran out of room and idea's after bursting past the City rearguard. Try as the players might, the game had become so stagnant we had taken to flicking through a copy of the Topical Times Football Annual from 1969/70 season. As the musky pages were turned, Ed questioned whether Ernie Hunt of Coventry City was Cockney rhyming slang, while Andy secretly wished for a head of hair that made him look more like Gary Sprake of Leeds and less like Bobby Charlton of Manchester United!
Spirited Chelmsford City had managed to keep their professionally ranked visitors within sight and with four minutes remaining, they delivered the proverbial sting in the tail. Evergreen striker Bertie Brayley has had more clubs than Tiger Woods, but right now the Shrimpers support were cursing that he had turned up at Chelmsford. The former West Ham United, Queen's Park Rangers, Swindon Town, Canvey Island, Heybridge Swifts, Hornchurch (comes up for air), Braintree Town, Billericay Town, Farnborough Town, Thurrock, Aldershot Town, Grays Athletic, Margate (ok, starting to lose the will to live here), Eastleigh, Bishops Stortford, Concord Rangers, Harlow Town, Tooting & Mitcham United, Basildon United and so on... man thumping an unstoppable shot high into the net, although perhaps Bentley will believe he could have done better with the initial cross. In the dying embers of the game, both Eastwood and White had efforts blocked by stand-in keeper Lee Butcher as City held on for a share of the spoils.
Although some might argue that this was only a friendly, Southend's early displays have been somewhat disappointing. What with all the chopping, changing and uncertainty at Roots Hall, there has only been a ripple of optimism amongst the Roots Hall faithful as the League season looms into the horizon. Following this latest performance, that ripple seems to have turned into a wave of concern.

By PATSY STODDARDEditor
The Emery County Public Lands Council met in their regularly scheduled meeting on Aug. 13 at 10 a.m. Those present were Craig Johansen, Kirk Johansen, Wes Curtis, Vernell Rowley, Dickson Huntington, Tom Roush and Commissioners Ira Hatch and Drew Sitterud. Craig Johansen conducted the meeting for Chairman Dennis Worwood who was out of town.
The meeting began with the approval of the previous meeting minutes. The subcommittee reports were next with the water report being given by Craig Johansen. He said there still isn't any water. Joes Valley Reservoir still has 1,500 acre feet of water allotted to Cottonwood Creek Irrigation Company, 2,000 for Huntington/Cleveland and Utah Power, 8,000; for a total of 11,800 yet to be drawn. Utah Power can draw their allotment any time between now and next April. Approximately 26,000 acre feet will be left in the reservoir. We began last year with 48,000 so we will be short 12,000. In the dead pool, 7,800 must be left, if it is another dry winter, then there will probably only be enough left to drink. Utah Power also has 5,600 acre feet carry over in the Millsite Reservoir and none left in Electric Lake. The irrigation season ends on Nov. 1 and the only ones allowed to carry water over are industries and municipalities.
Commissioner Hatch spoke about a meeting he and Commissioner Sitterud and Jay Mark Humphrey for the water district had been to with Skyline Mine and representatives from Sanpete and Carbon counties. He said they are putting together a proposal to bring before the Community Impact Board for funding for a feasibility study on the water situation. Currently Skyline is still pumping the water full bore with the water within the mine being pumped out the mine portal and into Eccles Creek and down into Scofield Reservoir. The water in the well outside the mine workings in James Canyon is being pumped into Electric Lake. They will be mining in the future to the north in the Winter Quarters tract at least until the resolution of the disposal of the water.
A discussion took place regarding the lowering of the water coming out of the right fork of Electric Lake from 12 second feet to six second feet. It was mentioned that fish monitoring would take place before and after this reduction. Commissioner Hatch said stream flows were determined by the minimum amount of water needed to maintain the brown trout population in the river. The flow on Oct. 1 is to be sustained throughout the winter. This protects the spawn of the brown trout.
It was pointed out that even if a shaft was drilled the mine water could not be discharged into Electric Lake. The idea of inviting all parties involved in the Skyline water issue to the next public lands meeting was discussed and approved.
The coal bed methane report was next on the agenda. Bryant Anderson said they are drilling around the pageant site. He also said the gas companies have determined that the wells in the Huntington vicinity produce more and as they have moved south the wells are of a poorer quality. Commissioner Hatch reported that he went on the field trip with the Division of Oil, Gas and Mining board and the gas companies said they were not expanding at this point any farther south and were concentrating in the Huntington drainage. John Healy from the forest service reported that they have received four proposals for wells on forest service land and the Castle Valley ridge was in analysis at this time. Anderson also pointed out that some of the companies are still looking at horizontal mining which reduces impacts and pad size.
Roush from the recreation subcommittee reported that plans are going full bore for public lands day which will be held on Sept. 28 beginning at 9 a.m. at Swasey's Cabin. The Bureau of Land Management has been doing a lot of work getting the materials ready for the fencing project. Scouts from Carbon County are expected to come and help with the project.
The heritage subcommittee report was given by Curtis. He said that Congress is in recess until Sept. 4 so we'll have to wait until they reconvene for more information on the heritage bill. He also mentioned a letter three wilderness friendly congressman had sent to the President regarding the monument. Curtis reported receiving a phone call from a Tribune reporter asking if there was unrestricted OHV use in the monument plan? Curtis told her there isn't a plan and that OHV use was allowable on designated roads and trails. Curtis emphasized how this situation illustrated how the enviro movement controls and manipulates the media, feeding the reporter false information about OHV use. The enviros view the OHV as a monster that needs to be killed. "If we don't take the initiative to take and shape the San Rafael there are others out there who are anxious to do that for us," said Curtis. It was also mentioned that talk was circulating that the environmentalists might propose their own monument bill to Congress.
The grazing subcommittee report was next with Huntington reporting that he had met with Roger Barton from the soil conservation district and they want the public lands council to cosponsor the Quivira Grazing Conference which will be held in Moab or Price. He said he will be attending a meeting in Price where they will put it together and the exact location will be announced.
John Healy from the forest service said they have asked some allotments to come off next week on Horn and East Mountain. He said Trail was asked to come off a week ago.
Tom Rasmussen from the BLM said they are looking at allotments on a one by one basis to determine if there is enough feed for cows. Healy said if next year is dry then the cows may not be able to go out at all. "It looks pretty bleak unless there is a turnaround this winter, even so the plants need recovery time."
Clyde Magnuson, president of a local cattlemen's association said, "It is tough work to bring the cows down now. They have an instinct to come down in the fall when it starts to get cold and it's tough to try to bring them down now."
Kirk Johansen said that any rain at all would help to rejuvenate the grasses.
The land exchange was discussed next, the bill has been pulled to discuss the valuations and reconsider issues. Their (Congress) difficulty has been over how the valuations for the lands to be exchanged were arrived at. SITLA wants the bill to go forward as is and hopes to educate those opposed, to the process that was utilized for the valuations. No formal appraisal process was done because the cost and time frame for such a process was prohibitive, which defeats the purpose. Parties involved bring the information to the table of the valuations of the land and it is reviewed by independent companies. The exchange is broken into parts, but the total package is of equal value. Cannon is sponsoring the bill in Congress. It was mentioned that maps and an explanation of the exchange is available at trustlands.com. The representative from SITLA said it is their goal to have $1 billion in the trustlands fund by 2010 for the school children of Utah. The principle on the fund is not touched. The interest is pulled off and goes straight into the state education budget. Schools are also now making some decisions as to how that money is spent. Each individual school in the state receives a portion of trustland money according to school population to use for an educational program at their school.
The forest service update was next with Healy saying the fires on Horn and Nelson mountains have had a positive impact. Their main concern is now that these areas have been cleared they might have ATVs accessing the burned areas. Willow Lake campground is now collecting fees and the forest service has had positive feedback about the improvements to the campground. Discussion of the positioning of a low water boat ramp at Joes Valley was looked at. The best site seems to be south of the Sportsman's Lodge, below the CCC trail. "It has the best slope," said Healy. Commissioner Hatch said this is where the old road used to go. Healy said they are still evaluating sites. They also need to determine if the ramp would also be available for high water use. The Division of Wildlife Resources has money to help fund the boat ramp. The water at Duck Fork reservoir is being drawn down to facilitate the rotenone treatment which is coming up in September. Anglers report successful fishing.
Healy reported that with the drought springs on the mountain have decreased and some have disappeared entirely. "We are working on the roads analysis. An upgrade for Skyline Drive is being looked at and the issues that effect the people in the communities concerning any upgrades." Healy went on to explain that 70 questions have to be answered for each of the roads being analyzed. He said that the Skyline road is still on the Sanpete upgrade list. The old Ferron Dugway trail is currently closed for now, a viable trail is not ready yet and watershed analysis must be done and evaluated to see where the trail should go. Healy said they meet with the Emery County Road Department each spring and work things out so they know what roads are being worked on. They could also meet with people on the trails so they could know what is being worked on, also.
Curtis commented that it would be good for the access management subcommittee of the public lands council to meet with the forest service. Healy said it will be important to do that as the trails develop. "The forest service is spending $2 million a day on fires and is well above the money allocated for fighting fire. The new Ferron District Ranger will be Mesia Nycum, she is currently at the Bridger-Teton forest in Afton, Wyo. Her starting date is Aug. 26.
"We really appreciate the working relationship that we have had with Val Payne and the public lands council. We appreciate the relationship he built with the forest service and the public lands council," said Healy.
Curtis said that his office has been approached to form a partnership in helping with the socio-economic connections with the communities and the forest in regards to the Manti-LaSal forest plan revision. These studies in the past haven't given an accurate picture of the impacts in the communities and Curtis hopes with their involvement and the involvement of communities it will help to get the information flow going and be better than it has been in the past. These plans will include a look at users and groups and how forest service decisions might effect them.
Tom Rasmussen was next with the BLM update, he said that Patrick Gubbins has been selected as the new Price Field Office manager. "He is coming from South Dakota and is a good selection," said Rasmussen.
Floyd Johnson from the BLM said their minerals report is being finalized and will be posted on the BLM website. Coal reserves are still being worked on. Information on energy and minerals as they relate to other activities will be shown and maps which show the distribution of the minerals and the potential for development. There are also baseline reports involving air quality.
Gary Armstrong from, Booz, Allen and Hamilton was next with a discussion of the process to be followed in discussion of and information gathering in regards to the San Rafael Swell monument idea. The BLM has contracted with his company. He outlined a technical workshop, scientific symposium and resource inventory as part of the process. He said the technical workshop will take place on Aug. 28 at the College of Eastern Utah Museum. "Experts on resources such as geologists, paleontologists, ranching, uranium mining, ecology and plants will be discussed. The half-day workshop will bring knowledgeable people together to see what's out there," said Armstrong.
On Sept. 19-20 the scientific symposium will be held in Castle Dale at the high school. Armstrong said they hope to involve the students and there will be formal presentations and local attendance is encouraged. The resource inventory report will go to the president. This report might also include copies of published works and guide books of the area. He said they are calling on local people who are knowledgeable to help serve as speakers and guides for the workshop, symposium and onsite field trips to the Swell.
Former Price field officer manager Dick Manus will help with the site tours to the Swell. Armstrong also said that some self-guided tours will be available on the website.
The public meetings portion of the process will take place between Sept. 30- Oct. 4. Meetings will be held in Castle Dale, Price, Green River and Salt Lake. Also a quantitative study is being conducted by Dr. Keith Allred, from the Harvard University John F. Kennedy School of Government. The survey can be taken on the website and will also be sent to a random sampling of county residents as well as others. The report will hold a chapter on each of the related subjects. Each chapter will be 8-10 pages and contain discussion of the selected sites on the Swell. Armstrong asked the lands council members present to give their ideas on suggestions for guides and presenters.
Commissioner Hatch said that it was important to get back as much information as possible before the November election when the initiative will be put on the ballot. Armstrong said the BLM website is: ut.blm.gov/ and go to the San Rafael link.
Curtis asked Roush to coordinate with the school district on the September symposium. He accepted the request. Craig Johansen said they appreciate the good relationship they have enjoyed with Dick Manus and Tom Rasmussen from the BLM. He said the initial reaction to Dick's replacement is positive. "This is not an easy time nor easy issues, we need a player who is willing to listen," he said.
The next public lands meeting will be held Sept. 10 at 10 a.m.

(February 28) Today we're celebrating. . . Holi
Holi (Hindu – India)
Holi, also known as the Festival of Colors, is one of the most popular and widely observed Hindu holidays. The springtime festival commemorates the triumph of good over evil in Hindu mythology.
This joyous occasion is marked by happy street demonstrations in which people throw colored powder & water on their fellow celebrants.
Holi, the Festival of Colors, is perhaps best understood as a celebration of the colors of unity and brotherhood – as an opportunity to forget differences. The festival does not recognize distinctions of cast, class, creed, color, status or sex. Holi is about bringing people together: employees and employers, men and women, rich and poor, young and old.*
Holi is celebrated for 2 days.

JACKSON — Several years ago, Charles Young, D-Meridian, was asked to be on a panel because of his position as chair of the House Universities and Colleges Committee.
Young made a lot of points that day, but he placed the greatest emphasis not on universities and higher education, but on providing early childhood education. He said for the state to progress that must happen.
Now everyone from Republican Gov. Haley Barbour on down is talking about the importance of early childhood education. When Young made his points, everyone was not. It would have been easy for Young that day to just talk about the universities and colleges that he provided oversight of as chair of the House committee. That is what members of the audience expected.
But Young was talking about what he believed was important for the progress of the state.
Charles Young died Wednesday morning. He has had physical limitations in recent years, but mentally remained sharp as a member of a legislative chamber he loved in a state he loved.
In the era he grew up, it would have been easy for Young, age 77, an African American, to not love Mississippi. But Young did and worked to make it better.

Miranda LambertCountry Singer
Born: 10 November 1983
Birthplace: Lindale, Texas
Best known as: The country singer who did "The House That Built Me"
Miranda Lambert is a Grammy-winning country singer whose hit songs include "Gunpowder & Lead" and "The House That Built Me." Miranda Lambert began her professional career when she was a teenager, belting out rock-oriented country songs in Texas bars. Her big break came when she performed as a contestant on the TV show Nashville Star in 2003; Lambert placed third, but she also landed a record deal in Nashville. Co-writing most of her songs, Lambert crafted a feisty image to go along with her mature twang and torrent of blonde hair. The combination worked: her debut album, Kerosene, spawned hit singles throughout 2005, including "Me And Charlie Talking" and "Kerosene." Her follow-up, 2007's Crazy Ex-Girlfriend, entered the country charts at number one and included the hit songs "Famous in a Small Town" and "Gunpowder & Lead." The Academy of Country Music named it the album of the year and then named Lambert the top new female vocalist of 2007. Her third album, 2009's Revolution, was another hit upon release and included the singles "White Liar" and "The House That Built Me," the 2010 Grammy winner for best female vocal performance. Lambert started 2011 touring as a headliner while Revolution was still a hot-selling critical favorite, and in April she was named the Academy of Country Music's top female singer, beating out Lee Ann Womack, Carrie Underwood, and Taylor Swift. She was, in fact, named the ACM's top female vocalist four straight times, from 2010-2013. She released a new studio album, Four The Record, late in 2011. Her side project, the Pistol Annies -- a group including Lambert, Ashley Monroe and Angaleena Presley -- also released the album Hell on Heels in 2011.
Extra credit:
Miranda Lambert announced her engagement to country singer Blake Shelton in May of 2010. They were married on 14 May 2011… Miranda Lambert is no relation to American Idol's season eight contestant Adam Lambert.

no one can tell me otherwise
anyone can challenge me
thats just one more NOOB i'd be glad to PWN
naruto in sage mode vs batman =o batman would so win too.
Sailormoon vs Sage Naruto - Sailormoon
A #5 lead pencil vs Sage Naruto - #5
The tattoo on my arm vs Sage Naruto - Sage Naruto. But if it ever left my side it'd transform into a time bomb
Panda Facts
Spoiler!Panda Fact 1:99% of a pandas diet is bamboo.
Panda Fact 2:In China they call the Panda "Xiongmao", which means Giant Cat Bear.
Panda Fact 3:Don't mess with The Panda -_-
Panda Fact 4: Giant Pandas can spend up to 16 hours a days eating.
Panda Fact 5:A panda gives birth to twins 45% of the time but in wild can only look after one baby so one usually die.
i think i knew xDDD
and L said: "Justice will prevail"
Sage Naruto isn't the strongest thing in the world people, believe it. (lol)
He'd probably defeat most characters from D. Gray-man though going by proper logic. Innocence isn't as strong against humans, Allen's sword also goes right through people so thats a pointless battle.
On the other hand Naruto cannot kill akuma, only innocence can destroy akuma. I don't know if Noah's can only be harmed by Innocence, if not then he can probably beat most of them I guess except Road. Road can't die as far as we know. Her skin has been burned off atleast 3 times and she just heals everytime without a scratch. Tyki has a chance in his awakened form maybe, but probably not. The Earl can only be killed by Innocence, Naruto can't kill him.
Tsuna could probably go against Naruto, thats a tough choice though. The only other Reborn characters are Mukuro, Genkishi, Xaxus, and Byakuran I guess. (we don't know what Byakaran can do though, but being the main villian and stronger than everyone else he has some type of chance)
Alucard could easily kill Naruto, no questions ask, its freaking Alucard.
The only Soul Eater character that has a chance is Eibon, Asura, and maybe the 400 year form of Mosquito.
Probably no one knows what I'm talking about but Neuro (from the series Majin Tantei Nougami Neuro) could beat Naruto. His powers are more so psychological, after his torture Naruto would rather go insane or he'll be brain dead. Plus Neuro is a demon and it takes alot to kill him, normal people have zero chance against him.
Here is one for you.
Sage Naruto vs DeadPool.
I Love You!

France exacted revenge for last week's defeat and recorded a comprehensive 49-10 win over Argentina in Saturday's Test in Tucumán.
France exacted revenge for last week and recorded a comprehensive 49-10 victory over Argentina in their Test at Estadio José Fierro on Saturday.
In contrast to their clash in Cordoba, les Bleus looked a different side as their six changes paid off as Benjamin Fall and Maxime Mermoz shone.
First-half tries in Tucumán came from Fall, Yoann Huget and also Maxime Machenaud as it seemed Philippe Saint-Andre's rallying call had worked.
A slip into their infuriating style of looking for the drop-goal was looking like taking the gloss off what was a decent showing from the French. But they thankfully reverted back to what had worked earlier as Mermoz swapped from being provider to scorer with a long-range breakout from his own 22 before Huget grabbed his brace. Clermont's Alexandre Lapandry barged over for their last try.
The third-string Pumas, who are resting over 20 first-team players ahead of their big 2012 Rugby Championship debut, did get over the whitewash in the closing stages when Tomas De la Vega capitalised on weak fringe defence to allow Felipe Contepomi the final scoring act before he heads back to club duty.
France's victory ended a run of four straight internationals without a win.
Argentina coach Santiago Phelan meanwhile will now look ahead to the Pumas' Rugby Championship opener against South Africa at Newlands in Cape Town on August 18.
Man-of-the-match: Yoann Huget and Benjamin Fall impressed on the wings but for his creativity, Maxime Mermoz take this. A classy showing and he was deserving of his try.
Moment-of-the-match: As soon as Maxime Mermoz broke the line on twelve minutes before drawing the last man to set up Benjamin Fall, one just got the feeling Argentina were not going to be as sturdy as last week. So it proved as the half-time scoreline of 30-3 said it all.
Villain-of-the-match: Few handbags here and there but nothing major.
The scorers:
For Argentina:
Try: De la Vega
Con: Contepomi
Pen: Contepomi
For France:
Tries: Fall, Huget 2, Machenaud, Mermoz, Lapandry

Replacements: 16 Nahuel Tetaz Chaparro, 17 Bruno Postiglioni, 18 Santiago Guzman, 19 Benjamin Macome, 20 Rodrigo Baez, 21 Martin Landajo, 22 Gabriel Ascarate.

Comments: I love these skates most say they are heavy. I do not agree with this, i see no difference with any other skates I've worn. Although the bearings are not that good you can replace them at a price. On the other hand i do love the wheels they are a perfect wheel for indoor, and outdoor skating and i would recommend these skates to anyone.
From: Ethan
Comments: I am a 240 pound intermediate level Inline Hockey Player that plays on indoor sports tile. I have head that a draw back to this skate was that it is "Heavy". It probably does weigh slightly more than a High Level skate but I do not notice any "Heavy" feeling. Also the wheels are called Outdoor (?) I recommend them for people that weigh over 200 pounds on indoor sports tile.This is my second pair of inline skates. I am very impressed with them and highly recommend them.
From: Keith, WV
Comments: Have been using these for about a month now playin 1-2 times a week and there great skate for the price.I changed out bearings for ABEC 7's. But cant complain for the price and mission is always good quality, and fast shipping and great service from warehouse!!!
From: Brian, VA
Comments: the last time I skated on these skates I found that they were comfortable and guide a smooth ride for the price that they are. All over they are a good skate for some one that is older and wanting to get into inline hockey.
From: Josh, AUS
Comments: The boot is very comfortable in the ankle compared to other skates I have owned. The boot also has ventilation in toes region to help keep your feet cooler. Sizing is about 1.5 sizes off your normal shoe size as most skates are. The wheels and bearings that come with the skates are 82a hardness and standard bearings aren't that good. I replaced with labeda shooter wheels and sonic bearings and noticed a huge difference in speed immediately. AC7, AC6, AC5 all seem the same to me. I chose the cheapest knowing I would change out the wheels and bearings.

Once documentation of the chapel and pyramid of grave G309 was complete, we started excavation of the substructure. As expected, a shaft leads to two burial chambers carved into schist bedrock, all arranged on an east-west axis.
However, some details of construction were unusual for this cemetery: a schist slab was used as a door jamb for the western chamber, and the shaft was partly lined with mudbrick and then plastered.
Near the base of the 2.5 metre deep shaft, an intact burial was found. This skeleton of a 15-20 year-old female was found in a prone position (lying on her front), extended with her arms placed along her sides. This suggests the body was tightly wrapped in a shroud – or possibly mummified.
The woman was found on a mat, probably of reed, which will be confirmed by botanical analysis. Blue, red and white beads were found around her neck, while both of her hands were adorned with bracelets of faience beads.
A scarab, found in her left hand, is carved with a depiction of two baboons greeting the sun – symbolised by an obelisk.
Establishing the sex of an individual is often problematic in osteology, but the skeleton of a foetus, found still within the pelvic area of the mother, left no doubts. According to a preliminary skeletal analysis, the baby reached the 28th week of its intrauterine life and did not exhibit any skeletal abnormalities.
The reason of death for both individuals might never be established. The foetus was found in a position not suggestive of a child-birth death, and ff the mother succumbed to some other pregnancy-related complications it might not leave evidence on the skeleton. A thorough analysis of potential pathological conditions identifiable in the mother's remains might, however, shed some light on this matter in the future. For example, on the basis of healed porosity of the cranium and orbits, we might suspect that the mother had suffered and recovered from anaemia during her life.

If the first half of the high school regular season has taught Harrisburg anything, its that every night will be a dog fight for the Bulldogs.
Harrisburg squeaked and sweated out a 58-54 win over Murphysboro Friday night at Davenport Gymnasium, preventing Harrisburg from losing two straight games since the 2010 season.
Eli Taborn-Scott scored a game-high 23 points for Harrisburg (10-2, 2-2) as the senior forward came up big down the stretch for the Bulldogs.
After Murphysboro cut a 10-point third quarter deficit to two at the 3:35 mark after a Steven Eldridge dunk, Scott stepped up, knocking down a jumper to give Harrisburg a 52-48 lead.
Back-to-back buckets by the Red Devils (6-6, 2-2), knotted the game at 52-all, but again Taborn-Scott was there for the Bulldogs, completing the deuce and abuse to put Harrisburg up 55-52 with a minute to play.
That play provided enough breathing room for Harrisburg head coach Randy Smithpeters and company as Smithpeters picked up win No. 399 in his career.
For Muphysboro head coach Daryl Murphy, he was all to aware of who the Bulldogs would rely on the down the stretch.
"Taborn-Scott was huge for them. I've been watching him for four years and I'll be glad when he graduates. He's a heck of player and Harrisburg knew who they had to go to and they did."
Murphy added that two major points of emphasis for his club going into the game was keeping Harrisburg off the glass and stopping the Bulldogs' transition game.
In the end, Harrisburg out rebounded Murphysboro 34-20 and struggled in the first half to stop the run and gun game by the Bulldogs, where the Red Devils turned the ball over seven times, five in the second quarter where Harrisburg took a 29-18 lead into the locker room.
"We played a pretty good game over here (Friday)," Murphy said. "We missed some easy shots and we didn't do a very good job of blocking out in the first half and that's what Harrisburg does. Randy Smithpeter's teams always attack the glass. They do a great job of offensive rebounding and they beat us up on that in the first half.
"We had a few opportunities, I don't know if we were ever in a position to win the game, but we had some opportunities. "
Devante Jones had 14 for the Red Devils, while Eric Finders and Eldridge each had 13 to finish in double figures.
After Taborn-Scott's 23 points, Jake Simerly and Corbin Crim each had two points. Simerly grabbed a game-high 11 rebounds and Crim, who started in place of the injured Jarren Goldman, grabbed nine boards.
Harrisburg finished the game shooting 35 percent from the floor, going 17-for-48, but took advantage of its time at the free throw line, knocking down 21-of-27 shots.
Page 2 of 2 - Murphysboro went 21-for-48 from the field, including a 3-of-8 clip from beyond the arc, while shooting 11-of-15 from the foul line.

Beijing –General Motors President Dan Ammann gave a "fireside chat" to students at Peking University, one of China's most prestigious educational institutions, on April 19. He was part of the Career Development and Global Leadership Forum sponsored by Peking University and Junior Achievement China.
Ammann told participants about his career aspirations growing up in New Zealand and how he transformed those aspirations into a successful career in the automotive and investment banking industries. He encouraged the students to be global, be willing to take chances, be prepared to change careers and consider traditional industries such as the automotive industry. Ammann also shared his insights on developing leadership skills, pointing out that good leaders set priorities, are honest and lead by example.
Ammann is visiting Beijing in conjunction with Auto China 2014, this year's leading automotive exhibition in China, which opens on April 20 in China's capital.
General Motors traces its roots back to 1908. GM has 11 joint ventures, two wholly owned foreign enterprises and more than 58,000 employees in China. GM and its joint ventures offer the broadest lineup of vehicles and brands among automakers in China. Passenger cars and commercial vehicles are sold under the Baojun, Buick, Cadillac, Chevrolet, Jiefang, and Wuling brands. In 2014, GM sold more than 3.5 million vehicles in China. More information on General Motors in China can be found at GM Media Online.

Of Veggie Omelets and Cognitive Dissonance
I woke up this morning around 4:45 a.m. to eat before my day of fasting. To keep myself from passing out into my leftover veggie omelet from the night before, I turned on the TV. It was about 4:55 a.m. The first thing that confronted me as I scooped food into my mouth was the destruction of Haiti. People standing in mud, broken. Helicopters dropping off bags of food, long lines, the complete absence of buildings. The government has apparently stopped counting the death toll. Without numbers, the reporting on Haiti is going to end up even further down from where I found it: the last report of the hour.
Following the report, the beautiful, dark-haired host smiles with her moist lips and signs off, wishing me a good day. A good day? Are you mad?! I'm ready to intentionally deny myself food to try vainly to understand where I stand in this world. As I'm eating, there are people on the other side of the glass who are traumatized after three (or four?) hurricanes. And the host has the gall to wish me a nice day? Did she even watch the segment that just aired? The cognitive dissonance was a bit much, but there I sat with my leftover veggie omelet, my juicy organic yellow peach, my full glass of milk, and my disgust of the human race, cursing at the screen. I heard Heschel blaring at me, at the newscaster: "Some are guilty, but all are responsible."
At 5:30 a.m., I went back to bed, to catch a few more hours of sleep before heading off to work. I lay there wishing for a red cape and blue tights and the chance to fly across the continent and do something. But you never see Superman fighting systemic poverty, or downgrading hurricanes by flying in a counter-Coriolis trajectory. He fights Lex Luthor.
It's the afternoon now. I'm still hungry, but come 7:23 p.m. tonight, I'll eat. I can. Yet today, my life feels like the platitudes of that news anchor. I saw something horrible, yet I got on with my day.
In conversations I've had with friends on this subject, the answer is invariably that it's my duty to live my life more fully and more appreciatively, that the more tempting response of sullenness isn't going to help anyone. Instead, bring your earnestness into whatever else you do. Working here is important to me because I can integrate my skills and energy toward something that is, in my view, part of some larger solution. And that's good. Still, every time my cheeks stick from thirst, they drag my thoughts back to this morning, faithfully as a dog on a leash.

Although corporate pyramids are currently commonplace world-wide and although there have been "noteworthy pyramiders" in American business history, this controversial form of corporate organization is now a rarity in the United States. The conventional wisdom is that corporate pyramids disappeared in the U.S. when New Deal policymakers began taxing dividends paid to corporate shareholders. This version of events is more fable than truth. The introduction of the intercorporate dividend tax did not foster a rapid dismantling of corporate pyramids. Instead, pyramidal arrangements were already rare in the U.S., other than in the utilities sector, and the demise of utility pyramids was prompted by the Public Utilities Holding Company Act of 1935 rather than tax reform.
This version should be referred to in preference to the version that appeared in print in the Business History Review, as this version incorporates a number of editorial changes not incorporated into the print version.
This is the revised and published version of an earlier working paper: http://ssrn.com/abstract=1544023.
