|Warmwater flyfishing Bass, pike and even muskies in your backyard
|Topic Review (Newest First)
Central Mass Stripers (non-ff)
On Saturday a friend and I took a ride to the Holyoke dam on the Connecticut River to try for some shad. It was the 2nd weekend of the annual shad derby and it was pretty crowded so I was using my spinning rod. (It's a tough place to flyfish even when it's not crowded.) The shad weren't hitting too well so I decided to try for some smallies in one of the side channels that flows into the main current. I put on a floating/diving Rapala and on my second or third cast I got a nice topwater hit and hooked up. I thought it was a largemouth at first but it turned out to be a 20" striper! Nice little bonus, especially since I didn't catch any shad. Didn't see any smallies or largemouths either, although I did see a 2' pike chasing a herring in the same place where I got the striper. I also saw some people using cut shad for bait and they said that they had caught a few stripers in the 20" range.
I'm planning to go again tomorrow after work. If it's not too crowded I'll try the fly rod. Maybe I should bring the 9wt and toss a big herring fly for a while!

{No Bake/Frozen} PEACH-GINGER & PLUM-VANILLA GRANITA … bidding adieu to stone fruit
Worldly things were of little meaning. She lived for hamburgers, ice cream, pencil and paper.
For me, the hard work was the pushing the pulp through the sieve. It took forever, or like forever. Also, my granitas took a whole day before reaching freezing point. Maybe I need a new fridge, maybe… I adjusted the sugar in the plum granita because the plums were quite sour. I also added 2 drops of red food colour as the plums weren't the dark red ones. You can skip that, but I let them be to give me colour contrast with the peach. Oh yes, one more thing … once out of the freezer, granita melts really fast!
Adapted minimally from Epicurious {Bon Appétit}3/4 cup water3/4 cup sugar1 cinnamon stick1 vanilla bean, split lengthwise1 1/2 pounds plums, pitted, cut into 3/4-inch piecesMethod:Combine water, sugar and cinnamon in heavy small saucepan. Scrape in seeds from vanilla bean; add bean. Bring to boil, stirring until sugar dissolves. Reduce heat and simmer until liquid is reduced to 3/4 cup, about 2 minutes. Cool syrup completely.Puree the plums in processor. Press enough puree through sieve to measure 1 1/2 cups. Strain syrup into puree and blend well. Transfer mixture to a shallow 9 X 5 loaf tin. Freeze plum mixture until flaky crystals form, stirring every 30 minutes, about 4 hours. After it hardens, use a fork to scrape it up into coarse granules. {Can be made 1 week ahead. Cover; keep frozen}From the House of Annie1″ piece of ginger, peeled and sliced1 cup sugar1 cup waterMethod:Slice the ginger into slivers and boil them along with the cup of sugar and cup of waterCut up the peaches and blend along with the slivers of ginger from the syrup. Then strain the puree through a sieve. To the puree add the juice of one lime, and then the ginger sugar syrup. Pour into a shallow dish and place in freezer. After it hardens, use a fork to scrape it up into coarse granules.♥ Thank you for stopping by ♥

These moist, chewy cookies have an intense almond flavor. Barbara Bruno of New Portland, Maine, enjoys hers with a glass of chilled Champagne.

Delicious and very moist with intense almond flavour. Freezes beautifully also.
Proportions are wrong.
There are many better almond cookie recipes out there. This one is greasy, even with the extra flour recommended by reviewers. I wouldn't waste my time or ingredients on this one.
I modified the recipe: Instead of the canned almond paste (who has that laying around?) I weighted out 5 oz slivered almonds and ground them fine in spice grinder (which was way more than 1/2 cup), only 1 stick of unsalted butter and everything else as listed. I rolled them into golfball sized balls, pressed down with a fork, sprinkled with more slivered almonds, and baked as regular cookies rather than bar cookies.
AWESOME. I didn't want to go on a quest for expensive almond paste at the store so I made some from scratch (easier than I expected!) and proceeded with the recipe. Going to be making these over and over again.
I've been making these since 2004 when they first appeared in the magazine and they are now my "signature cookie" that I am known for...although I have adapted the recipe. I use almond filling, which is sweet, so I do not add extra sugar. I use raw sliced almonds on top, so these turn out beautifully. The first time I made these, they were a sloppy mess, so I did have to modify these quite a bit. The recipe as is has too much butter and is greasy. I also now use a disposable pan when I make these, so I can pull it off easily and cut the bars versus greasing the tin foil, etc...the smell of your house while making these makes them worth the effort!
Did the 3/4 cup butter and this was still greasy.My "Batter" was a chocolate chip cookie dough consistency.I patted it into the pan and baked for 38 minutes,let cool for one hour. The almond flavor was medium,the greasy consistency ruined the whole "bar".It left my mouth feeling like it had been coated with lard. I lined the pan with foil "handles" and then lined the foil with parchment.The bar came out of the pan with no problem.
This is a four forks recipe with some adaptations. As suggested by another reviewer, I increased the flour to 1 1/2 c., used exactly 4 oz of almond paste and reduced butter to 3/4 cup. I used the amount of almond extract as recommended. I didn't make them as bars. Another reviewer recommended baking the recipe as individual thumbprint cookies which I did and they came out unbelievable.Filled them with apricot and raspberry preserves. After they cooled, I drizzled white chocolate over the ones filled with raspberry. Took them to a party....they were gone within minutes. Definitely a keeper. I wouldn't make these as bars.
Because I read 2 pages of reviews for this recipe, I read through it carefully before I started. And, like another baker, I don't like using ingredients that I have to special order. I actually didn't even have almond paste on hand--I had almond filling, which I'd bought at the grocery store, so I used that. I increased the flour to 2 cups, but used the same amount of butter. I decreased sugar to 1/4 cup, since the filling is sweetened. I wasn't happy with the consistency--they were done, but seemed more like banana bread than cookies or a bar. So I cooked it for about an hour on a low temp to get the consistency I wanted. I will definitely make these again--they're fantastic! We can't stay away from them! But I would increase the flour.
These sound so good and fairly easy to make but why have a recipe with an ingredient (almond paste) that can not be found readily at a local supermarket?

The genetic pedigree of an iconoclastic Oxford educated political father and a flagrant former beauty queen, island scholar, legal-minded mother, it is no wonder that the stage was ideally set for the breeding of a personality of uncommon bent in the skin of ZaraAnaiia. Clutching an acceptance to Cambridge University, to pursue a Doctorate degree, having obtained her Masters Degree from Imperial College of Science and Technology (London UK) in the field of Engineering, ZaraAnaiia, for the first time in her life, decided to listen to her heart. Thus commenced an incredible journey of self discovery birthing the incredibly exclusive butterfly we savor before us today.
Golden is ZaraAnaiia's first published offering to we, her admirers, and we can happily be safe in the knowing, that it won't be her last. A unique collection of poetry that pulsates vibrantly to a tune only heard by daring souls; and certainly, there is no doubt in our minds, that ZaraAnaiia is definitely such a soul.

Looks like that put the Fuller's Flash at 9.5 pts. With an Open win already, he is getting close!
There is very little difference in dogs, but that little difference makes a big difference. The difference is attitude. The big difference is whether it is positive or negative.

Kate Davis and David Heilbroner, the talented indie documentarians who made last year's Waiting for Armageddon, seem confined by the strictures of PBS's long-running American Experience series in their straitlaced ode to gay liberation.
The story of how, in 1969, gays and lesbians fought the cops at Greenwich Village's Stonewall Inn — that sterling "Rosa Parks" moment when homosexuals came out of the closet and said "No" to police intimidation — is told thoroughly but without much passion, humor, rowdiness, or smut. The best parts actually come before and after the uprising. The filmmakers have uncovered a series of repulsive, hysterically homophobic documentaries produced in the 1960s, often for network television. (The 1967 Summer of Love was for heterosexuals only.)
And post-Stonewall? They take us into Central Park for the first Gay Pride March, in the summer of 1970, the most moving scene in this well-meaning but sedate documentary.

Archdiocese of Chicago
D. Todd Williamson is the Director of the Office for Divine Worship.
This past weekend (the second Sunday of Lent), we celebrated the final two Rites of Election and Call to Continuing Conversion, at Holy Name Cathedral. They were wonderful celebrations!
The Rite of Election and Call to Continuing Conversion is the Liturgy by which the catechumens (those who are unbaptized) are "elected" for baptism at this next Easter Vigil – hence the title, "Rite of Election." As Bishop Wypych noted, during his homily at the Rite last Sunday evening, this is the Liturgy in which the Church publicly recognizes God's choice of these catechumens for baptism. As the bishop pointed out, God has chosen them – and it's in this Rite that the Church acknowledges God's choice.
At the same time, in the Call to Continuing Conversion, the Church – through the Bishop – recognizes those baptized non-Catholics who seek to be received into the Full Communion of the Church.
This year, through the celebration of five of these Rites, over the course of three weekends, over 500 catechumens were elected for full initiation at Easter and some 600 candidates were recognized for their desire to enter into the Full Communion of the Catholic Church; These are powerful celebrations in which the presence and movement of the Holy Spirit is especially evident in the life of the Church in the Archdiocese of Chicago.
It is, literally, amazing to be at these Rites! As the catechumens are called forward for election and the candidates are called for recognition, they take their places in the sanctuary of Holy Name Cathedral. By the time they are all called forward, the sanctuary of the Cathedral is literally filled with them! Catechumens and Candidates from all over the archdiocese, from every parish, from every nationality and language are represented! All of them are seeking Christ and have found him in the parish communities that sponsor them! These Rites are, truly, celebrations of The Church!
At one point in the Rite, after the Bishop has elected the Catechumens and has recognized the Candidates, he sends them back to their parishes in the pews of the Cathedral. As he does so, he admonishes the parishes, "These elect and these candidates have been entrusted to you in the Lord. By your loving care and good example continue to help them until they complete their initiation. They are God's chosen ones now; share with them the peace of Christ."
The Bishop's words at the Rite are pertinent to all of us in the Archdiocese of Chicago. I encourage all readers, if you haven't yet, to find out who the Elect and the Candidates are in your own parish. Learn their names! Once you have done so, I urge you to spend the rest of Lent praying for them! Support them in any way you can! If you see them at Mass on Sunday, be sure to go up to them and assure them that you are praying for them! If you see them in the grocery store during the week, be sure to go up to them and assure them that you are praying for them! If you see them on the street, be sure to go up to them and assure them that you are praying for them!
These are the people in our parishes who have fallen in love with Jesus Christ and who seek to be united to him in the Sacraments. As such, they are models to those of us who are already baptized, of what it means to be on fire with the Spirit of Christ. They are models to us of the conversion that all of us are called to during the season of Lent; the conversion that will deepen as we renew our Baptism at the Easter Vigil, or on Easter Sunday morning. At the same time, we are to be models to them of what it means to be committed disciples of Christ, of what it means to be Christian! They need us…and we need them!

|Our Environment We are stewards of wild places
|Topic Review (Newest First)
If 1 in 100 will survive the summer they should not be stocking them. It does have affects on the body of water but it also cruel for the fish.
As for bardless hooks, not many places sell flies that are barbless. All brands sell barbless hook like Mustads 94945. You can bend the bards down by crushing them with a pair of pliers. It will leave a little bump but that is alot better then a point.
This means not using 5" flies with wire leaders and claiming to be fishing for trout
but seriously, there is nothing that the law can do about this than use an honor system. They are simply trusting the anger not to intentionally fish for them, however, if you would to hook into a northern while fishing for, let's say grayling, besides having one quite a fight on your hands, you are in no trouble once so ever. Just quickly land the fish and release him as quickly as reasonably possible.
As for my beliefs on catch and release, I feel certain species of fish are okay to be taken at certain times. Such as a local lake that sstocks trout in in the fall. Omaha lakes are no place for anything resembling a cold water fish and game and parks surveys suggest that less than 1 in 100 of theses perfectly healthy 13-15 inch rainbows will survive the summer. The whole point of these fish is so they can be caught and eaten. Also, species like catfish and various panfish I like to eat, because in most of the waters around me these fish are easily stunted and are still very good fish to eat.
On the other hand you develope a sort of respect for certain fish, in my case bass of any sort and northern pike. These fish are way to valuable to a fishery as it is and the removal of limits of these fish consistantly can damage a body of water, plus there are plenty of better tasting fish out there.
I guess the whole basic idea is that take what you will eat, (don't limit for the sake of a limit) and return the fish to the water that can really affect the predator prey balance. Or leave leave some of the larger fish for future generations. However I do realize the C&R of salmon can be very debatable.
Hope that helps....
OK, now to show my ignorance of all the terms, LOL
A fishery? Is this just the body of water with the fish in it?
(Eric, that elusive Chinook....I REALLY want him on my plate, but he ain't biting for me, LOL )
I did some searching on the web last night about C&R, and read about the lactic acid, I'd already read about the slime coat, and as an avid aquarium person, i actually knew about that. I think I need some clarification about barbless hooks, because I think maybe I'm using the wrong kind. The barb, are we talking about the one on the long side of the hook, the one just under the point of the hook, or both? Would a barbless hook just look like a J with no extra things on it? If so, can someone tell me where to find them, a good brand, and where I can buy flies made with them? Seems like the only flies I'm finding up here all appear to be Crystal River.
For the person who said they only keep one salmon a year....maybe I'm not "into" fishing enough yet, but for me, once I catch what I want for eating, I'm done fishing. Maybe it's because of my upbringing, but I go fishing for food, and once I catch what I want (assuming I'm lucky enough to catch fish that day), then I quit fishing. (And again, I'm not judging anyone who does otherwise, that's just what I do)
As a child when I watched the bass shows with my daddy, I never understood why they'd catch those pretty fish and put them back, LOL, but now that I'm older I understand that there are people who fish as a hobby, so it makes sense.
So, give me some opinions, and then I have some more questions.
My family of 6 would willing eat fish probably 6 days out of 7, tuna is a staple in our house. I'm actually the only one who really doesn't care for fish, except tuna or salmon, the rest of them will eat any kind.
(This isn't going to happen, so no one get into an uproar, I just wnat thoughts about the ethical thing to do, because I'm just now learning about all this)
King Salmon are running here right now, the run is winding down, so there is no way this will happen this year, but maybe next it could. By law, each angler can catch one KS 20" or larger and 10 under 20" per day. Currently 5 out of 6 are able to fish for the KS, so at what point do I say we've taken enough from the water? Before I stumbled into fly fishing and this forum, I'd hoped that I, at least, could catch my per diem a couple of times to go in the freezer to eat until next year. (So far I haven't caught any, darn it)
So, how do you determine what is fair/ethical to take? Are the KS runs an exception, because they come into the rivers to spawn and then die? Honestly, with what I've spent on fishing gear to try to catch the darn things, I should have just bought them at the store, but that's another topic, LOL.
OK, back to the C&R for sport thing.......I don't have the regs here right now (they're in my vehicle, so I can refer to them when I'm fishing, because you practically need an attorney to interpret them up here), but I remember in one particular area, it is closed to fishing for Northern Pike year-round, including C&R. Now.....for me, to avoid any issues with that, I've just not fished there at all, LOL, but.....how do you avoid catching a particular fish? What does that mean? Do you just not target the NP? What happens if you catch one anyway?
Thank you to everyone who has answered, I appreciate the different perspectives, and I'm enjoying learning more about the issues facing the sport.
Catch & Release
I don't think there's a visitor to this board, no matter how casual or occasional, who has not wrestled with this question. Each of us eventually works it out for him or herself -- I can only offer an opinion after many years of thinking about this.
I blieve the question of whether to catch and release or catch and kill is situational. The first thing that needs to be considered when deciding which way to go is the sustainability of the fishery. Many fisheries cannot support the killing of fish, even when very restrictive limits are imposed by the regulating agencies. Some fragile fisheries are even regulated as no-kill, and many lodges enforce a no-kill policy in an effort to maintain a quality sports fishery for their guests.
Nevertheless, there are times and places where killing fish may be in the best interests of the resource. Seldom visited cirque lakes supporting large populations of stunted brook trout are one such example. Farm ponds overcrowded with bluegill may be another. Non-native fish that are crowding out more desireable native species may be targeted for slaugher, and so forth. In short, catch and release depends on the situation.
Some anglers practice catch and release under all conditions. This is their personal ethic and choice, and I don't quarrel with it. I do quarrel with their proselytising this ethic to situations where it doesn't reasonably apply or for castigating other anglers who don't share their "no exceptions" ethic.
Personally, about the only fish I keep are Chinook and Coho salmon, with the occasional bright hatchery steelhead. The stocks I fish are abundant ones, and I limit myself to what myself and family consume. Fish are good food, and, if the fishery can stand it, bonk what you need and bring 'em home to the barby.
As to whether fish are particularly injured or distressed by being caught, I don't think their distress is a big thing for them. I think all of us who regularly release fish have caught the same fish twice, often with hours of the initial hookup. As a boy, I kept "pet" fish in my bedroom aquariums that I'd taken on hook and line and transported home in a bucket on my bike. To no obvious ill effect. These are critters that eat hornets and wasps with relish and are always sampling drifting and swimming things by biting at them. Fish that are to be released, though, should be landed quickly to avoid lactic acid build-up, and handled as gently as possible during the landing and recovery periods. Barbless hooks are a very good thing if you are intending to release your catch.
Anyway, this is one person's opinion. Maybe worth two cents. Who knows. Bottom line, with C&R, it depends.
|If you are going to eat the fish that is fine. The reason C&R was created and pushed was because 50 years ago if you caught a fish you kept it, and most did not eat them. I have pictures of dozen of trout laying on the river bank, people would catch fish show everyone how many and then throw them out. I am a huge preacher or C&R but have no problem if someone keeps the fish to eat, I think there is nothing better then a fresh trout.
Catch and Release
Good topic! Let's do this;
Say there's 1000 Flyfisher Men and Women in each state. Thats 49,000 total in the contiguious United States, 'cause I dont think that there are that many in Hawaii, but there's a few. Anyhow, if each of those went fishing each weekend during regular season, and kept just 1 fish each time, that would be 12 fish aprox for a 4 month season, we are talking 600,000 fish bonked.....just by Fly folks. That is only flyfishing! which although it being the fastest growing segment of the fishing thing overall, still makes up a small portion. You see where Im going with this? The question is not weither "Alaskan should be able to keep and eat fish", the question is what does it take to make a resource sustainable. One of the most important parts of that is realizing that this resource IS sustainable, and a BIG way we as Sportsman can activly promote this resource is to practice C+R. Properly released fish have a very high survival rate, I want to say 95%? (Correct me if I'm wrong guys)
I have 2 young boys, both flyfish and have been raised to understand the importance of C+R. Thats not to say that they have never enjoyed a Trout for breakfast! I on the other hand practice 100% C+R in all my angling. I want the resource to be there when there kids get old enough to enjoy the outdoors.
C+R is one part of a Sportsman's overall relationship with the natural resource that He or She utilizes over the course of their lifetime, that coupled with the boundarys set by your local Fish and Wildlife can keep this resource producing for generations to come!
Catch and Release for fish is not a "Bad" thing, it is in fact a very "Good" thing for you and me and all Anglers!
|In an ideal word catch and release would not be needed but we dont live in an ideal world and there are just not enough salmon in the rivers to sustain killing every fish caught (my point of view). I usually keep 1 salmon a year for eating and then put all others back because 1 fish is enough for me to eat and I hope that by carefully returing fish to the rivers they will spawn and increase the numbers of fish in the system. I have fished on rivers that are total C&R and it does not bother me that I have to return all fish as I can see from the catch returns that year on year the catches are improving. Whether this is down to C&R or just a natural cycle is debateable but I would like to think it is down to C&R and all the hard work is paying off.
Catch and Release???
I'm sure I'm opening a can of worms, but please, someone, educate me about the "big deal" of catch and release?
On another very good FF site, there is a comment that "since we no longer need to kill fish to eat"......I live in Alaska...there are a LOT of people here that DO need to do just that.
So, what is the deal?
Is C&R the in-thing now? Are we not supposed to fish for food anymore?
I practice C&R when I catch something I'm not supposed to, for example, in the river near my home, Arctic Grayling are C&R only, so if I catch them, I release them. If I catch a trout or salmon out of there, though, it's dinner. Is this wrong?
Personally, I find fishing just to C&R slightly cruel. I understand the sport of it, the thrill of the fight, all that, but if it were me, I really wouldn't like a hook through my cheek for someone's sport, you know? (I don't have a problem with people who only fish C&R, that's just my take on it.)
I grew up on the Gulf of Mexico, on a shrimp boat if you want specifics, until I was about 10 years old. When we weren't out shrimping, chances were good you'd find me on my daddy's bass boat in a lake fishing, or catching stump-knockers in the river behind my grandmother's house. Tiny ones got tossed back, but if they were eating size, they were dinner, or breakfast, as the case may be. Maybe I'd be on the boat with my Gram, headed for mullet lake, maybe we were catching bream, but they were being caught to be eaten. Nights we weren't shrimping, you'd probably find me out gigging frogs with my daddy, or possibly crabbing for blues with a piece of chicken on a string.
Since then, I haven't really fished much, did some deep sea fishing while I was on the shrimp boat, of course, and in my teens, you'd often find me surf-fishing in the Atlantic with my step-dad, but again, they were for eating. We didn't eat the sharks, though!
So, is my perspective because I'm the kid of a "good ole boy" and hunting and fishing was a way of life for us? Do I need to educate myself on this? Is it no longer cool to fish for food, but pay grocery store prices when I want it on my plate?

I have a BitTorrent tracker for Creative Commons-licensed music. My HTTP logs tell me that about fourteen .torrent files are downloaded each day, but trackerlyze tells me that about 750 payload files are downloaded each day. This is supported by the enormous size of my log files.
But when I download my own torrents, I rarely see any other peers. The only seed is the one I operate.
I suspect my tracker is getting hijacked to serve for other files, but I am using the --allowed_dir command-line parameter to limit the .torrents to my own. Could it be broken?
Thanks for any advice you can give me -- firstname.lastname@example.com

Ron Cook: Pitt faded, but it won't be forgottenJanuary 18, 2014 9:41 PM
SYRACUSE, N.Y. -- There are bad losses, worse losses and losses that a team can use to improve. There is no reason to think Pitt can't learn from its mistakes in a 59-54 loss to unbeaten Syracuse Saturday and be better because of the defeat.
Don't get the wrong idea. There is no such thing as a good loss for a college basketball program of Pitt's status. This loss was difficult for the Panthers to handle for reasons that went beyond the fact it was for first place in the Atlantic Coast Conference. They led by three points and had the ball with four minutes left but scored only two points the rest of the way. They made just 13 of 23 free throws after shooting it lights-out from the line all season. They didn't play much defense, especially in the second half when Syracuse shot 60 percent and guard Tyler Ennis won the game with a couple of uncontested layups.
Pitt coach Jamie Dixon took the loss just as you would expect.
"They're ranked No. 2 and we're ranked No. 22. They're at home and they're supposed to win," Dixon said. "But we came here expecting to play well and win. We had our shot. We had more than our shot."
Two observations:
Dixon said he isn't bitter about Pitt's low ranking despite its 16-1 record coming in. Right.
Pitt had every right to expect to win. Dixon was 10-4 against Syracuse Hall of Fame coach Jim Boeheim when their teams played in the Big East Conference, including 5-1 at Carrier Dome. The enormous facility and its 30,000-plus crowd intimidate many teams. Not Pitt. Not at all.
That's why Pitt's fade down the stretch was a bit surprising. Michael Young had a big turnover. Lamar Patterson, who brought Pitt back from a 10-point deficit in the second half with his 3-point shooting, missed three shots. Cameron Wright and Talib Zanna had great looks and had shots that rimmed in and out.
"I don't know that we could have gotten better shots at the end," Dixon said. "We just didn't make 'em at a high enough rate." Pitt shot 38.3 percent for the game, well below its 48.8 percent average coming in. It also scored 23 fewer points than its season average of 77.
Dixon was disappointed in Pitt's defense. Funny the different perspectives coaches have, isn't it? Boeheim said Syracuse played offensively "as good as we can play." Dixon thought the Panthers hardly covered. "We had a lot of breakdowns defensively. They shot [51] percent. You can't allow a team to shoot [51] percent." Ennis' two easy layups on consecutive possessions gave Syracuse leads of 53-52 and 55-52, prompting Boeheim to gush, "He made some of the best plays I've seen in a long time. You don't get to the basket against Pittsburgh. He got to the basket for two layups. He won the game down the stretch for us."
Dixon also wasn't happy that Pitt didn't do more with its 35-24 rebounding edge, which included 16 offensive rebounds. "For the most part, we got the ball where we wanted it. We just didn't finish."
So, sure, Dixon has plenty to correct when he gets his players back in the lab.
But don't think Pitt didn't do plenty well. If Syracuse is No. 2 in the country, Pitt is not far behind. It will have a chance to prove it when the teams play again Feb. 12 at Petersen Events Center.
"That's as good a Pittsburgh team as I've seen in a long time," Boeheim said. "I think it will be difficult for anyone to beat them. They've got the inside game that you've got to have. They get really great guard play. And Patterson is a tremendous player."
Patterson made three consecutive 3-point shots to cut Syracuse's 37-27 lead to 39-36. He made another 3 to give Pitt a 49-48 lead, then hit two free throws to help stretch it to 52-49 before going cold with the rest of his teammates.
Pitt's comeback from 10 points down against a good team in a tough building was impressive. So was its rebounding edge, built significantly by Zanna, who had another double-double with 11 rebounds and 12 points. He's a typical Dixon player, a guy who stays four or five years and gets better and better.
Dixon's teams generally get better, as well. Here's a prediction: This Pitt team will get better.
"Like I told the guys, this isn't the season. It's just one game. There's another one Tuesday night."
Clemson comes to Petersen Events Center.
"We'll be ready," Dixon growled.
This is just a guess.
The coach and his team can't wait to get back in the lab.

AMD Unveils New Family of GPUs: Radeon R7 and R9, With Exclusive Battlefield 4 Preorder
GCN 2.0 has been widely rumored as a next-gen feature of the card, but AMD appears to be avoiding that term. They refer to multiple power efficiency enhancements in the GPU, but nothing regarding a GCN 2.0. That implies that the new R9 290X is essentially a more power-efficient, larger version of the same GPU that debuted in 2011. That's not necessarily a bad thing, given that GCN has been a strong architecture for AMD. With multiple consoles based on GCN, Sunnyvale may think it can leverage the specialization work done for those chips and see strong improvements from these cores.
The R5 series will start at $89, with 1GB of RAM. The R7 260X will hit $139 with 2GB of RAM, the R9 270X and 280X appear to replace the current Radeon 7950 and 7970 with price points at $199 and $299, and 2GB/3GB of RAM, and then the R9 290X, at an unannounced price point and 4GB of RAM.
AMD is also offering a limited preorder pack, that lets people buy a Battlefield 4 license combined with the GPU, which should go on sale in the very near future.
Finally, AMD is also debuting a new positional and 3D spatial audio engine in conjunction with GenAudio dubbed "AstoundSound," but they're only making it available on the R9 290X, R9 290, and the R7 260X. The keynote is still ongoing, but for the record, it seems like an odd decision. Pushing out new technology almost always requires a complete product lineup for support -- by only bringing audio out across a few cards, AMD risks pigeonholing its own next generation technology. The idea of a positional audio engine is itself odd, but we'll get back to you with more details on that as they become available.

President Trump, his fossil fuel administration, and anti-conservationists in Congress are attacking America's public lands!
Donate today and help save America the beautiful. Your gift today could be what stands between our public lands and Big Oil's drills.
Oil and gas development could soon dot the landscape and pollute the air of some of Colorado's most prized recreation lands.
The Bureau of Land Management and U.S. Forest Service will soon decide whether to allow copper mining in Washington's scenic Methow Valley, an important gateway to North Cascades National Park.
In a war on public lands, Congress repeals a rule that stopped polluters from calling the shots.
The most anticipated outdoor recreation event of the year just finished in Salt Lake City, Utah, where hundreds of outdoor brands from small business outfitters to industry pioneers like Patagonia and Black Diamond Equipment gathered to witness the cutting-edge in outdoor gear.
After overwhelming public support, the Forest Service issued its final decision on January 17 that withdrew consent to the Bureau of Land Management to offer oil and gases leases
Trump's selection of Ryan Zinke could threaten recent progress to reduce pollution and taxpayer abuse in the federal coal leasing program.
The Bureau of Land Management announced its final decision to cancel illegally issued drilling leases in Colorado's Thompson Divide and protect much of Roan Plateau from new leases.
A new federal rule seeks to curb significant waste and benefit our nation by reducing the output of one of the largest contributors to global warming—methane gas.
The BLM's new wind and solar leasing rule will guide clean energy projects to low-conflict, pre-screened areas to increase renewable energy on public lands, helping reduce greenhouse gases and the impacts of climate change.
By Robert Gay - The Bears Ears region of southeastern Utah represents one of nature's great works. Soaring cliffs enclose deep, winding canyons.
Trump is already checking off the oil and gas industry's wish list and now his anti-conservation partners in Congress are following in kind. Stand up to them!

Shares of local "deals" proprietor Groupon (GRPN) are down 40 cents, or 6%, at $6.32, in late trading, after the company this afternoon reported Q1 revenue that topped analysts' expectations, and a smaller than expected net loss, but also forecast revenue this quarter slightly below consensus.
Revenue in the three months ended in March rose 26%, year over year, to $757.6 million, yielding a net loss per share of a penny, excluding some costs.
Analysts had been modeling $740 million and a 3-cent loss.
CEO Eric Lefkofsky noted billings rose 29% in the quarter, to their highest level ever, at $1.82 billion. He said the company's marketplace "continued to gain traction" and that growth in mobile use of the company's offers accelerated, citing "more than 10 million app downloads" and mobile transactions "rising 54%" in the month of March.
For the current quarter, the company forecast revenue in a range of $725 million to $775 million, and EPS in a range of break-even to 2 cents. That compares with the average estimate for $758 million and a 3-cent profit.
For the full year, the company raised its outlook for Ebitda to $300 million, above a prior forecast for Ebitda slightly above 2013′s level of $287 million, offered back in late February.

Man, this forum is dead.
So I'll start some controversy with a sampling of my list of overblown and overrated twits:
1) John Mayer: Okay, he's not really big enough to be "overrated," I suppose, but the guy's supposed to be a singer-songwriter, yet can't string together a coherent sentence that doesn't sound like it came from a 6th grader's diary? He should be shot for using the word "bubblegum" in a song. And he claims to be a guitar player with Hendrix as his idol, but is disgustingly incompetent. (I've never picked up an axe but imagine I'd be better on my first try.) Is this what the singer-songwriter label has come to? Ick.
2) Marilyn Manson: Thankfully well on his way into obscurity, but did he ever suck. He tried to be controversial by doing what Ozzy and Judas Priest did decades earlier, and they were not only better at controversy, but they actually had musical talent to go with it. My favorite quote about him is from Alice Cooper (I'm paraphrasing): "He wears makeup, uses a woman's name, and tries to shock people with his act. How incredibly original!"
3) Jeff Buckley: Here's where I'll start drawing flack, I'm willing to bet. He's supposedly a great songwriter. But you know what? I can't agree or disagree because I can't understand a damn word he said! Not only incomprehensible, but he sounds like a whiny little girl who skinned her knee. A half-decent cover of Leonard Cohen's "Hallelujah" is all he has to his credit, and Leonard did it a billion times better (even with his total lack of a singing voice). But Pete Yorn apparently idolizes Buckley and was inspired by him, so he was good for something.
4) Warren Zevon: Seriously. A one-hit wonder for "Werewolves of London." That's it. The recent tribute seems odd: Dylan, Springsteen, etc covering songs by someone who was by far their inferior in the songwriting department. Even if you like him, I think you'll have to agree with me on "overblown" for one reason: last year, he got the only "memorial tribute performance" on the Grammies. Last year. The same year both Johnny and June Carter Cash passed on. You put anyone higher than Johnny Cash, and they're automatically overblown. Johnny Cash is, well, Johnny Cash.

Shares of Qualcomm (QCOM) are down 11 cents, or 0.4%, at $79.22, after Goldman Sachs's Simona Jankowski this morning reiterated a Buy rating and a $95 price target, but stripped the stock from the firm's "Conviction Buy List," where it had been featured since November, writing that several "catalysts" have now played out.
Jankowski writes she does not "expect material upside to consensus estimates in the intermediate term and many even see some near-term downside."
Still, the stock is undervalued at a P/E of 15.2 times next year's results, she believes.
Things such as greater return of capital to shareholders, an expansion in gross margin on Qualcomm's chips, and resilient average selling prices for the company's royalty business, are now played out, she thinks.
Jankowski sees a pause in coming weeks and months, in particular as some Apple (AAPL) iPhone buyers hold off on purchases in advance of a new model of the device:
We are trimming our June and September quarter estimates to reflect a weaker handset demand environment in the June quarter, which we think is attributable to three factors: (1) a lull ahead of the much-anticipated iPhone 6 launch, (2) weaker 3G shipments in China ahead of a steeper 4G ramp in 2H, and (3) softer demand in Europe. We view all of these issues as transitory and not thesis changing over the longer term, but they may drive a near-term pause in the stock's outperformance. We are now modeling June quarter sales/non-GAAP EPS of $6.42bn/$1.23, down from $6.53bn/$1.24 previously and compared to consensus at $6.53bn/$1.22. As for the September quarter, while the chipset business will benefit from the iPhone 6 and China LTE ramps, the royalty business is reported one quarter in arrears and will thus likely be affected by the June quarter lull.

Alumni return to campus for Reunions
Posted May 27, 2011; 06:30 p.m.
Princeton alumni, family members and friends have arrived on the Princeton campus for Reunions activities, which run through Sunday, May 29.
More than 20,000 attendees are expected to participate in Reunions events, which began Thursday, May 26.
Among the alumni returning on Thursday was Donald Carey, a member of Princeton's class of 1951, who joined with his wife, Barbara, to ride their bicycles to Reunions from New Hampshire.
Some alumni, family members and friends biked to Reunions to demonstrate their commitment to environmental sustainability. From left are: Donald Carey, a member of the class of 1951; Dennis Markatos-Soriano, a 2008 graduate alumnus; Barbara Carey, wife of Donald; Stoney Emshwiller, who accompanied his wife, Margaret McGlynn, a member of the class of 1986; and Andrew Besold, the New Jersey events and outreach coordinator for the East Coast Greenway Alliance. (Photo by Denise Applewhite)
The couple -- he is 81, she is 82 -- climbed on their 17-year-old bikes on May 2 and departed Portsmouth, N.H., about 50 miles from their home in Gilford. They spent the next 24 days traveling through Massachusetts, Rhode Island, Connecticut and New York before arriving in Princeton on Thursday afternoon.
This is the fourth time the Careys have made the 540-mile trip by bike over the last 35 years -- they also came for Donald Carey's 25th, 30th and 50th reunions. This year they biked an average of six hours a day to join in his 60th reunion.
"It's a challenge," said Barbara Carey. Added her husband, "I haven't been on a bike in more than a year."
The Careys were part of a group of alumni who rode to campus in an effort to promote environmental sustainability, arriving in time for a "green tour" of campus hosted by the Office of Sustainability.

Other highlights of this year's Reunions include:
- the P-rade throughout campus beginning at 2 p.m. Saturday;
- alumni-faculty forums and department open houses during the day Friday and Saturday;
- performances by student groups including Quipfire!, the Princeton University Players, Theatre Intime and Triangle Club on Thursday, Friday and Saturday evenings;
- receptions and student/alumni arch sings on Friday and Saturday evenings; and
- the University Orchestra's lawn concert at 8 p.m. Saturday on Finney and Campbell fields, followed by fireworks at 9:15 p.m.

All alumni and University representatives again will be required to have wristbands to participate in Reunions activities in the major reunion headquarters courtyards. Wristbands are not required for attending lectures or performances or watching the P-rade, which are open to alumni, friends and the campus community. The concert and fireworks are open to the campus and local communities.
Faculty and staff members and their guests must pick up their wristbands in person in the parlor of Maclean House (enter at the front of the house) between 7 and 11 p.m. Friday and Saturday, May 27-28. A University ID card and valid driver's license with photo will be required for pickup.
Attendees can access the Reunions schedule and other key content via smartphone on the Reunions Mobile website. For more information on Reunions activities, visit the Reunions 2011 website or call (609) 258-1900.

Asia-Pacific least developed countries (LDCs) continue to face structural challenges in their development processes. Such challenges are highly idiosyncratic and, in most cases, associated with disadvantages in their initial endowments and geographic features, including remoteness, costly access to international markets,insufficient human, natural and financial resources, and vulnerability to disasters.
Business as usual is not an option if the ambitions of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development are to be met. The scale and depth of the goals require a radically different and disruptive approach—the essence of innovation—along with significant scientific breakthroughs and technological advancements. Science, technology and innovation (STI) have the potential to increase the efficiency, effectiveness and impact of our efforts to meet the ambitions of the 2030 Agenda and create benefits for society, the economy and the environment.
At the sixty-eighth session of the Commission, in 2012, the Bangkok Declaration on Regional Economic Cooperation and Integration in Asia and the Pacific was endorsed, which promoted a comprehensive view of regional economic cooperation and integration. Energy connectivity, with a specific focus on transboundary interconnection and power trade, can play an important role in overall regional economic cooperation and integration. It can realise mutual benefits for member States and play a role in increasing the sustainability of the energy sector.
Since 2010 when the Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Act was passed, the Philippines has been shifting its focus from disaster response to a holistic and proactive approach to disaster risk reduction (DRR) and disaster risk management (DRM), with the intent of making people more resilient to the effects of disasters.
Despite experiencing a decade of rapid economic and export growth, Asian land-locked developing countries (LLDCs) are still in a difficult position with regard to integration with the rest of the region and the global economy. This paper examines the changes in trade structure and performance of Asian LLDCs. It shows that after a decade-long global commodity boom, most of the Asian LLDCs have become resource-dependent.
The pace of economic expansion in Asia and the Pacific has slowed considerably in recent years; with the outlook clouded by uncertainty, growth is expected to plateau at about 5% for both 2016 and 2017. Sluggish exports played a significant role in this slowdown, but so did moderate domestic demand. Worse, a confluence of downside risks could lead to further moderation in the pace of growth.
The Asia-Pacific Countries with Special Needs Development Report 2016 explores ways to adapt the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development to the unique circumstances, capacities and levels of development of the Asia-Pacific least developed countries, landlocked developing countries and small island developing States, collectively referred to as countries with special needs (CSN).
ESCAP supports governments in Asia-Pacific in implementing measures to efficiently involve the private sector in infrastructure development. Developing case studies is part of this effort and promotes exchange of experience among the countries of the region.
Case 1: Traffic Demand Risk / The case of Bangkok's Skytrain (BTS)
The following case study examines the issue of traffic demand risk and sheds light on how the problem of inaccurate ridership forecasts can impact a PPP project by using the example of the Bangkok SkyTrain.
The advent of the digital age in international trade has opened new possibilities for countries at all stages of development. Digital trade can support the achievement of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and increase economic prosperity worldwide. However, many developing economies, and particularly least developed countries, often lack the digital infrastructure and legal and policy frameworks to enable their citizens to seize these opportunities.
This report highlighted some emerging technologies such as the use of Big Data for DRM purposes. It is one that is still being explored but has so far demonstrated immense potential. However, along with it come significant challenges that have to be overcome in order to truly benefit from real-time use of MNBD. Utilizing new sources of data such as MNBD and even social media for assisting in predicting emerging trends and shocks as well as for building greater resilience is still an emergent field.

LINK+ book loan system
Original post made by Robin, University South, on Jul 7, 2007
It seems a little different from InterLibrary Loan in a couple of ways:
1. there is no fee
2. it is done online (at home or at library computers) so it is generally faster
3. doesn't require library staff to complete the process
4. (and I'm not sure if this is not also true of InterLibrary Loan since I haven't used it) you can get books that are pretty hard to find b/c many of the libraries on the LINK+ system are univeristy libraries.
Again, I don't know what or if there is a fee for a library to participate in LINK+, but I do know it is a very useful service to get hard to find books quickly.

Sounds interesting. About how much would it cost? I know the library budget is something like $6million a year. How much would this thing be?

I checked the Library Commission agendas and they discussed Link+ in June
Web Link
but the report itself isn't attached online. Can't get a copy till Monday.
So I went to the library this afternoon and looked at it.
The first year cost is estimated at $77,600 and
subsequent years are estimated at 67,100.
Considering what a powerful resource it is, and how many libraries are members, I think it would be a very popular thing and a feather in the cap of the commission and the staff if they instituted it. That's a tiny fraction of our library budget.

For some of the details on Link+ and a pretty mind-numbing view into the inner workings (not working to well, I'm afraid) of our Friends of the Library, Library Commission, and the library management, here's a link to a thread from a year ago...
Web Link
Palo Alto Online - Town Square Topic
From what was said then, Link+ was held up by the fact our library management software didn't work with Link+ (apparently everybody else uses something different from us - hmm!). On the thread, someone claimed this had been fixed by the vendor. In an article from March 2006, though, one of the Library Commissioners said some other libraries they talked to said it wasn't used much. Possibly true - I have seen other libraries with similar systems report that it accounts for a tiny % of circulation.

Ah, I remember that exchange. Neither of them would let go.
But things have changed. The FOPAL fellow is no longer with them, but that Library Commissioner is still on the commission.
About the software, all kinds of software can be made to communicate. Even Macintoshes incorporate Windows now. Interfaces can be created, if there is the will there would be a way.

I am sure you are correct Juliet - there was clearly not a lot of "will to achieve" among the various library groups. Better now perhaps?
a resident of Midtown
on Jul 7, 2007 at 10:12 pm
Yes, so I understand. The FOPAL people work really hard to raise big bucks for the library, it struck me as odd that a commissioner would tangle with, and insult, an organization that gives lots of $$ to the institution he supposedly supports.
But back to Link+. Even if a small percentage of people use it, that is a percentage of a very large number so it is still a lot of people. In addition, isn't the goal of a library to offer more and better resources to its patrons? Shouldn't that be the primary goal?
a resident of Barron Park
on Jul 8, 2007 at 6:59 am
In terms of value, we'd have to do the math. The $ spent on Link+ could also be spent on books and other materials for on-site use. The library materials budget is ~$550K, so $70K a year (the annual cost of Link+) is about 13% of the total budget. I do believe that on-site, available right now materials are more valuable than materials available in several days.
BTW - I was earlier referring to a small % of total materials circulated, not of patrons using. My guess is that only a very very small % of patrons (I imagine way less than 1%) would avail themselves of Link+, since most patrons (kids, people just looking for a book to read) will never bother or prefer something they can bring home now.
But it does seem like most other libraries decide Link+ is worth it, so it probably is for us too. We can look at their usage stats (and I'm sure someone has) to get a sense.
In terms of FOPAL vs. the LC, I think there is plenty of blame and bad-blood to go around, though I am just a distant by-stander.
a resident of Barron Park
on Jul 8, 2007 at 7:26 am
Well, here's a little more data. From Santa Clara City (not County) library board minutes (helpfully posted online), they reported 1000 Link+ request per month. Santa Clara City is population 100K, so somewhat bigger than PA
PA Library's total circulation is about 1.3M volumes/year (2003/04, last year I could find), so about 100K/month. So IF we had the same LINK+ usage as SCC, it would represent 1% of circulation. Is it worth 12% of our annual materials budget? Not sure...
BTW, while digging for data, I did find that Santa Clara County Libraries is consistently ranked the #1 library system in the nation for their population size (by the publication that ranks such things). Is there an opportunity to maybe just hand our libraries over to them??

Wow, what an interesting discussion (and great sleuthing for numbers!).
I suppose the mission or goals of the library would help to determine if it makes sense to spend the $ on LINK+. Access to most books is different than frequently wanted books at your fingertips.

Wow, what an interesting discussion (and great sleuthing for numbers!).
I suppose the mission or goals of the library would help to determine if it makes sense to spend the $ on LINK+. Access to most any book is different than frequently wanted books at your fingertips. And if the latter is what the mission of the library is (or I suppose what the majority of users want) then spending 13% on such an effort probably isn't going to make sense.
Mountain View library does have LINK+, so we can always go there (and drive our car to pick up the book)...
a resident of Midtown
on Jul 8, 2007 at 1:30 pm
Yes, it's nice to have a civilized conversation, and I'm willing to ferret out more data as long as it remains civilized (thanks Fred).
Link+ would be about 1% of the library budget. If it added the same percentage of usage, that would make sense financially.
But again, it is a question of values. What is the value of adding 7 Million titles to the catalog? and the library doesn't have to purchase or catalog them which I believe is the most expensive function. Some things are worth more than others. Do you calculate the percentage of your income when you pay for medical care?
I never heard of Link+ until recently and likely I'm not the only one. This would be an opportunity for our libraries to brag and publicize and show we are up to date, instead of all the putdowns about how neglected we are. I would think it could be the best argument for a modernized building one could make. Improving internal quality is an argument our educated community might respond to, not just a building that keeps up with the neighbors.
I won't belabor this but the dozens of copies of DVDs of Six Feet Under and Seinfeld and the Sopranos and other popular TV shows is my idea of where NOT to spend collection dollars. I want the libraries to be smartened up, not dumbed down and Link+ is a way to accomplish that.
7 million titles and access to something like 37 academic libraries. It's a no-brainer (very small joke intended).
a resident of Charleston Gardens
on Jul 8, 2007 at 5:52 pm
some facts:
Mountain View Library: about 400 Links+ users, most repeat users - so how many books are borrowed by differnt people?
lost Links+ book fee - $115
Links+ only lends books, no media.
Links+ is VERY LOW on the "user scale"
Links+ causes additional staff time demands - from .5-1 employee, depending on use.
All that said, I'm a Links+ fan, but please let's not tout this great resource than anything other than it is - and probably always will be - a resource for those who have esoteric information needs. It's certainly NOT anything that would significantly bolster the quality of any public library's collection in any way that could be called significant.
we might try Links+ for a time - say one or two years. If usage doesn't move well beyond currently available metrics at other libraries, we should spend our money elsewhere.
also, keep in mind that joining Links+ puts Palo Alto's library collection in the Links+ pool, making more demands on our collection.
Last, keep in mind that if a system like Links+ ever became TOO popular, we might have a 'tragedy of the Commons' problemm facing member libraries.

Trying it out sounds like a very good idea. Then we will see how it works, and if people use it. But it needs to be publicized and touted, because hardly anyone knows about it. As I mentioned earlier, I only heard about it recently. It could be such a feather in the cap of the current library administration -- look what we are doing, bringing a great resource to the city! We do a lot of advertising when some magician comes to a children's event, this would be much bigger news, I think.
By the way, the fee for lost books seems fair to me. When you borrow something valuable from someone, if you lose it you pay for it. Probably also serves as a dis-incentive for stealing another library's book. The annual cost seems modest to me, I hope I'm not sounding cavalier, given the cost of other things and a sizable budget.

With old decaying libraries built over 30 years ago, surrounding cities with new facilities and updated technology, and No A/C in any palo alto library except downtown......Do you really think this is the way to go??? Invest in a Link + system????
Shouldn't we upgrade at least ONE library to reflect our "interest in the library." I hear all this talk of how we enjoy the library so much, but on every occasion to upgrade or update the libraries. Everyone argues about what is best and NOTHING ever happens....
I think Palo Alto will remain forever with an outdated library.
a resident of Midtown
on Jul 11, 2007 at 11:28 am
Yes, we certainly should upgrade our libraries. It has always seemed to me that planned obsolescence has been the library's style. Why isn't there air conditioning? I don't know. Why is the lighting inadequate? These are the kinds of fixes made by ordinary home owners all the time. Somebody (plural) has not been tending the store. Replace some of those outdated fixtures. What's the big deal?
Over time, why haven't these things been done? Why is it so dark? A can of paint and some local talent would have improved it long ago. I don't know where the logjam is, but previous library directors need to explain.
Link+ would come from a different budget than major construction. (I assume collections budget.)
We should be able to hold two ideas in mind at the same time. Improving the collection should not wait until a bond election. The money involved is a pittance compared to the millions for construction.
Don't miss out on the discussion!

WHen the Groups will Return?
I am very eagar to know when the Group option will come back?
Group - is a place to share what we/I know
Forum - is a place to answer for question .
And some questions are somewhat easy. Most of them are New Thing to me, and I hope for many others too.
After the re-born of linux.com, in last 3-4 weeks I can see that forums are very very active with the answers from Mathew, Marc, GoingEasy9 and Masen M[ who is back after some long time ;-) ] .
And absolutely I dont have any idea of what they are talking in most of the places and I feel like I am losing the touch with linux.com slowly.
So, again, when the "Groups" will be back?

Campus community invited to CPUC meeting
Posted March 12, 2010; 05:29 p.m.
The Council of the Princeton University Community (CPUC) will meet from 4:30 to 6 p.m. Monday, March 22, in Betts Auditorium, School of Architecture. All members of the campus community are invited to attend.
Agenda items include the introduction of Paul Ominksy, who joined the University earlier this year as director of public safety. In addition, Undergraduate Student Government President Michael Yaroshefsky and others will discuss the survey the USG conducted this fall concerning campus safety.
The meeting also will include a panel discussion by faculty and students on opportunities for intellectual life outside the classroom. Emily Shandley, associate director of University Scheduling, will present one method to communicate those opportunities -- a new Web-based campuswide public events calendar, which is scheduled to go live this spring.
In addition, the council will vote on an amendment to the charter regarding USG and CPUC election procedures.
For more information about the CPUC, visit the council's website.

VIDEO: The trailer for Bee Movie
Bee Movie | Directed by Steve Hickner and Simon J. Smith | Written by Jerry Seinfeld, Spike Feresten, Barry Marder, and Andy Robin | With Jerry Seinfeld, Renée Zellweger, Matthew Broderick, John Goodman, Chris Rock, and Kathy Bates | Paramount Pictures | 90 Minutes
Buzz words: TV's 'A' star makes a Bee Movie. By Lloyd Schwartz.
Not for lack of trying. Jerry and his platoon of writers must have been as busy as you-know-what coming up with all the half-baked ideas, one springing from the other, none of it adding up to anything except bewilderment and annoyance. It takes a lot of time and talent to come up with a bee name like Barry B. Benson (voiced by Seinfeld, whose voice by the end of the film has become an insufferable — uh — drone). Barry has just graduated from college with his pal Adam (Matthew Broderick), and now they wait, along with their countless alumni, for the jobs they'll work at for the rest of their lives, things like "Crud Remover" and "Stirrer" — positions not unlike those at the bottom of the Hollywood food chain, I suppose.
But Barry dreams of something outside the hive. There must be more to life than this, he thinks, and we agree. And so he joins the pollen patrol and, in one of the film's few moments of visual bravura, flies out from the orange and yellow tackiness of home into the giddy colors of Central Park.
Now if this reminds you of Woody Allen in Antz, by all means rent that movie and see something worthwhile. Barry, meanwhile, having been grounded by a rainstorm, ends up in the window box of Vanessa (Renée Zellweger, trying really hard to sound flabbergasted), breaks the cardinal rule of beedom by talking (and talking and talking) to a human, and falls in love . . .
Nah, that won't do. And sues the food corporations that have been stealing the bees' honey. Much funnier! Worker bees of the world, unite! And when nationalized nectar proves an even bigger dud than the Soviet experiment, Barry joins Vanessa on a plane to the last Tournament of Roses parade in Pasadena so his bee pals can repollinate the world, but the pilots get knocked out, so . . .
Zzzz. Where was I? Oh, yes, Marxism. When Karl doesn't work, there's always Groucho, and Jerry does have a few zingers (most, no doubt, already aired in his inescapable TV-ad campaign "Bee Movie minutes"). Directors Steve Hickner (The Prince of Egypt) and Simon J. Smith might be credited with a rare, inspired visual gag: the beehive hairdo actually made me laugh. And when Barry starts nonsensically cross-examining the musician Sting (Sting) in court and the film gleefully loses all semblance of coherence, I thought this was the direction it should go — total absurdity. But no, there are lessons to be learned and more plot lines to unravel. (At least there are no songs.)

Mauro Ferrari
Nanomedicine expert Mauro Ferrari to conduct seminar Oct. 21 at UTSA
By Christi Fish
Public Affairs Specialist
(Oct. 20, 2009)--UTSA will host a nanomedicine seminar featuring Mauro Ferrari from 4 to 5 p.m., Wednesday, Oct. 21 in Biotechnology, Sciences and Engineering Building Room 2.102 on the Main Campus. Ferrari will speak on "Three Dimensions of Individualized Nanomedicine." The lecture is free and open to the public.
The seminar is the second of the Seminars in Translational Research (STRECH) monthly series hosted by UTSA and the University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio to foster research collaboration between the two institutions.
Ferrari is professor and chair of the Division of Nanomedicine and Biomedical Engineering at the University of Texas Health Science Center at Houston as well as a professor of internal medicine in its Department of Cardiology. Ferrari serves as professor of experimental therapeutics at M.D. Anderson Cancer Center and as professor of bioengineering at Rice University.
At the Oct. 21 lecture, Ferrari will address the fundamental challenges of nanomedicine, including delivering the right bioactive agents at the right place and time and monitoring their effectiveness and any undesired effects as rapidly as possible.
STRECH is a collaborative project between the UT Health Science Center at San Antonio Institute for Integration of Medicine and Science Novel Clinical and Translational Methodologies, UTSA's Research Center in Minority Institutions, and the joint UTSA-UTHSCSA graduate program in biomedical engineering.
The STRECH seminars bring together investigators from basic, clinical and social sciences to highlight the bidirectional and multiple stages of the scientific translation of research discoveries from the laboratory bench to the bedside and, ultimately, the community.
About Mauro Ferrari
Nanomedicine researcher Mauro Ferrari uses semiconductor nanotechnology and mathematical modeling to solve problems in molecular medicine with a focus on applications in oncology and cardiology. He is regarded as a pioneer in the fields of BioMEMS, biomedical nanotechnology and multi-scale mathematics.
Among his many firsts are silicon-based nanochannel technology; multistage particulates for drug delivery; the rational design of nanovectors; and the use of nanotextured chips for the selective enrichment of the plasma peptidome for early detection of pathological states. Recently, Ferrari was featured in Nature's "Straight Talk With Mauro Ferrari."

The lack of WDM being found is a convenient theme played on by the Democrat party (to try and split the country and garner votes) as the only reason we went in, while in truth there were numerous reasons, as was even embraced by the UN.

I'm not naive enough to think the reasons we were TOLD we were going to war weren't the reason we actually went. Hence the 'false pretenses'. Thank you for confirming that.
Thank God you folks who still think it was a good idea are a small minority in this country now.
I think we'll appreciate the strategic position we're in when we invade Iran. That's the next move. So it's worth it to get Saddam out of the way, and launch from Iraq, Afghanistan, Turkey, the Gulf did I miss any. I think Obama will eventually be faced with that situation.
Mark my words we're gonna get tested. Within 6 months we're gonna get tested. Sound familiar? We'll need all you bleeding heart liberals support. Ring a bell. Yes I think we'll be needing some air bases in the area. Unless your VP was just blowing smoke up our asses
I would respect the arguments on the left far more if they would simply be honest about which wars, if any, they would be willing to fight and under what terms.

Thanks Evan, I have not tried this method yet but I have started back to cc to here 2 days ago. I am not sure how it is going quite yet because I haven't thrown any bumpers without a long rope on him to give him a chance to get away or go around me. I really need to get this worked out because I haven't had any good marking sessions in quite a few weeks due to this issue, we have just beeen doing short fun bumper tosses with the long lead in the yard. I feel like all of her other training is going well but am not seeing the light at the end of the tunnel on a reliable full retrieve to hand. HELP!
CC to Here is done several ways, as you're finding out. My method produces reliable results uniformly withing a day or two with nearly all dogs of adequate age; greater than 4 months. Here's a peak.
Let me know if you have questions.
