Pontotoc Police Chief Larry Poole reported that two Pontotoc men and a 17-year-old female were arrested New Year's Eve (Dec. 31) and charged in connection with a long string of alleged car burglaries which occurred recently.
Poole said that Alexander Franklin, 19, of Grove Apartments, Pontotoc, and Deonte Dilworth, 18, of Jolan Circle, Pontotoc, have been arrested and charged with 17 counts of burglary of an automobile.
"We also arrested a 17-year-old female and her charges will be presented to Pontotoc Youth Court," Poole said.
Dilworth was released from jail on $50,000 bond, while Franklin remained in jail last Thursday in lieu of $50,000 bond, Poole reported.
Poole said most of the automobiles were burglarized on or around the weekend of December 14.
All of the vehicles were unlocked and setting in the owner's driveway or carport.
"Most of the stolen items have been recovered and will be recovered to the rightful owners," Poole said.
Items stolen included money, GPS, cell phones, computers and a pistol.
Streets where the car burglaries occurred included Waters Street, Ridgewood Drive, Oakview Cove, West Reynolds Street, Fall Drive and Dogwood Drive, Poole said.
Poole urged residents to never leave valuables in their car.
"Don't leave anything in your car, even if you lock the vehicle," Poole cautioned.
"Thieves are looking for anything they can grab in a matter of seconds and be gone."

Double aortic arch is an abnormal formation of the aorta, the large artery that carries blood from the heart to the rest of the body. It is a congenital problem, which means that it is present at birth.
Aortic arch anomaly; Double arch
Double aortic arch is a common form of a group of defects that affect the development of the baby's aorta in the womb. These defects cause an abnormal formation called a vascular ring -- a circle of blood vessels.
Normally, the aorta develops from one of several curved pieces of tissue (arches). As babies develop in the womb, the arches split into several parts. The body breaks down some of the arches, while others form into arteries. A normally developed aorta is a single arch that leaves the heart and moves leftward.
In double aortic arch, some of the arches that should have changed into arteries or disappeared are still present at birth. Babies with a double aortic arch have an aorta that is made up of two vessels instead of one. The two parts to the aorta have smaller arteries branching off of them. As a result, the two branches go around and press down on the windpipe and the tube that carries food from the mouth to the stomach (esophagus).
A double aortic arch may occur in other congenital heart defects, including:
Double aortic arch is very rare. Vascular rings make up a small percentage of all congenital heart problems. Of these, a little more than half are caused by double aortic arch. The condition occurs equally in males and females.
Because symptoms of double aortic arch are often mild, the problem may not be discovered until the child is a few years old.
The double aortic arch may press on the windpipe (trachea) and esophagus, leading to trouble breathing and swallowing. The severity of the symptoms depends on how much the aortic arch is pressing on these structures.
Breathing symptoms include:
Digestive symptoms may include:
The symptoms may lead a doctor to suspect double aortic arch. Other tests will then be needed to diagnose this condition.
The following tests can help diagnose double aortic arch:
Surgery can be done to fix double aortic arch. The surgery separates off the smaller branch of the double aortic arch to relieve pressure on the esophagus and windpipe (trachea).
The surgeon ties off the smaller branch and separates it from the larger branch. Then the surgeon closes the ends of the aorta with stitches.
Surgery can treat double aortic arch. Most children feel better right after surgery, although some may continue to have breathing symptoms.
In rare cases, if the arch is pressing down very hard on the airway, the child can have severe breathing difficulty that leads to death.
Call your health care provider if your infant has symptoms of double aortic arch.
There is no known way to prevent this condition.

Antigua to Launch Pirate Site to "Punish" U.S. With World Trade Org. Blessing
Jason Mick

Site is allowed to make up to $21M USD a year to compensate for "illegal" U.S. ban on internet gambling
This month the twin-island nation of Antigua and Barbuda aims to finally force a World Trade Organization discussion of its plans to launch a "pirate" site, which would profit off of selling cheap bootlegs of copyrighted works owned by copyright holders in the United States.
The unprecedented plan comes courtesy of a bizarre trade conflict between the U.S. and the small Caribbean island nation. The battle began when the U.S. in 2003 blocked various Antiguan internet gambling portals, such as the World Sports Exchange. After negotiations collapsed, Antigua took its case to the
World Trade Organization
, an international arbitrary body that deals with trade disputes.
The WTO
in 2005 that the U.S. decision to
block Antiguan internet gambling IP addresses
violated free-trade since some similar domestic (U.S.) gambling sites were
allowed to remain in operation
. The U.S. refused to comply with the ruling. The refusal brought big changes to the island's economy; 5 percent of the citizens once worked in the high-tech internet gambling industry -- now they were left looking for jobs.
In 2007, a frustrated WTO
ruled that Antigua was allowed to suspend U.S. copyrights
to the tune of up to $21M USD annually until the U.S. complied with the ruling. Antigua declared plans to leverage the ruling by launching a portal that sells bootlegs of U.S. copyrighted works at discounted rates, for profit.

The WTO would have to sign off on the plan, but that debate never happened because the U.S. successfully shelved the discussion at the last WTO meeting, calling it "untimely".
an interview
Torrent Freak
, Antiguan government attorney Mark Mendel emphasized that his nation's plans were not "piracy" as the WTO approved of the copyright violations. He remarks, "There is no body in the world that can stop us from doing this, as we already have approval from the international governing body WTO."
The U.S. is upset about the plan. It has written a
terse letter
to the WTO declaring:
If Antigua actually proceeds with a plan for its government to authorize the theft of intellectual property, it would only serve to hurt Antigua's own interests.
Government-authorized piracy would undermine chances for a settlement that would provide real benefits to Antigua. It also would serve as a major impediment to foreign investment in the Antiguan economy, particularly in high-tech industries.
But Antigua isn't listening to the threat and is poised to move forward with the plan at this month's meeting. Exact details of the portal have not been publicized, but
Torrent Freak
writes that one idea is to grant citizens unlimited access to U.S. copyrighted works for $5 USD/month. Antigua and Barbuda has a population of about 80,000 people, most of whom live on the island of Antigua.

At the end of the day all you have is your Character. It is something that no one can take away and that nothing can change unless you give it away or change it yourself.
And once you give your Character away… it is gone, never to come back.
You see Character is who and what you are inside. It is that which motivates you, it drives you, it causes you to act a certain way.
Not all Character is good, as we can see daily in the news, but that is because the holder has allowed it to happen. They gave it away.
Character is how others see you also, which is extremely important.
I once had a friend that would always say "I don't care what other people think of me". And as a result others thought of him in a dim light.
You demonstrate your character in everything you do. How you handle situations, decisions you make, and how you treat other people. And at every turn, someone is watching.
A Scoutmaster that allows unsafe activities to happen, that uses foul language when around the boys, and is generally undisciplined is demonstrating bad character.
One of the BSA's goals is to develop Character in the these young men. Being a good example of that Character is the best way to teach it.
I always go back to the Scout Oath and law. They are fantastic guides of good Character.
Do you praise in public and punish in private? That is a Character trait.
Do you stay clean, both in mind and body, and demonstrate good language? Also good Character.
Do you make sound decisions, that take in to consideration others first? Character.
Can anyone question your Character? Do you lie, steal, or cheat? Do you tolerate others that do? Those are the easiest ways to give up your Character.
It was once said that you can test a mans Character by watching him when he is away from home. Very profound if you ask me. We all act different away from home. The test for your Character is do you act better.
Happy Scouting!

To each input of the keypad connect a fixed resistor - a different known value with significant difference in resistance for each input. and connect them all in parallel to a digital output pin on arduino
Wire 4 of the row or column pins to 5v supply directly and the rest 4 in parallel to an analog input and measure voltage / compare it to preset values.
I think it would be better than a regular keypad in terms of response rate as the scanning is limited to a single pin and then lookups.
The resistor approach would not work even if noise would not be present.
The standard approach is to go for shift registers.

A classic blend of beans, beef, and canned green chiles, plus a healthy dose of chili powder, guarantees great flavor.
To keep sodium down, this recipe calls for rinsed beans and no-salt tomato sauce.

This apps main purpose is to create a triangular communication between parents, kids and teachers. Most of the time kids keep parents lost on what they are doing in class and at times kids are lost themselves in class. Teachers are teaching their lessons but kids don't pay attention in class due to a lot of environmental noise or innate issues. Teachers do send in behavior folders for parents to take action, however, parents get emotional or over react on the case. There is always finger pointing before an actual solution takes place. While this app is implemented between teacher parent and parent student daily activities, a checks and balances will occur through the student, parent and teacher. For example, when a students comes home and does his/her daily activity part in the app and the teacher turns her daily part which will be available to the parents by the end of the day. If for that day an issue exist in the report of the app. The parent can solve the issue instantly or make an effort, the student returns his/her classroom without any pending problems or confusion. Parents wouldn't have to wait for the weekend to solve the issue. Teachers will not be frustrated for the student's repetitive behavior nor the student would be a victim of being bullied. Every student will work with hand in hand with their parents and teachers. Bullies will stop bullying and laggers will go forward by knowing what is keeping them behind. Students will feel that everybody cares. Parents will know what their child is doing in classroom. Teachers will have a room full of good students.

Welcome to the Quilting Board!
This is the one with Milo the kitty. One of the first I made. A Pam Bono design. Thanks for asking!
Never regret growing older, its a privilege denied to many.
Be kinder than necessary, for everyone you meet is fighting some kind of battle.
So happy to see this again today! You know, many times yesterday after seeing Milo snuggled underneath, both the quilt and his little face kept coming to mind. I love your fabric choices and colors; especially nice use of the chicken wire fabric as a background. Wonderful technique and interpretation.
nice quilt.... the little one looks happy sleeping
Beautiful quilt. Milo looks so comfortable underneath
That is sooooo pretty
nicely done

Thanks for showing us.
"Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, chocolate in one hand, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming "WOO HOO what a ride!"
My daughter would love this design as her fav is sunflowers........great job!

I know that TC has won 2 SB's and has earned some slack from us stupid fans, but he isn't infallible either.
I think he's being foolishly stubborn with this fumble thing. And as I said, you can't have these big punishment for fumbling, takes the playmaking right out of a young player. We need his objective to be making plays, and not simply holding onto the ball.
enough is enough,,they go no huddle,,put the playbook in eli's hands, and get Wilson and Brown onto the field. lets roll the dice with our most explosive line up on the field and let the chips fall, period. no more what if, he can't, blah, blah. what they have been doing has not been working,,time to man up and put in some work, that's all I have to say.

Severe sepsis, a life-threatening blood infection, occurs when an initial bacterial infection overwhelms the body's immune system, causing blood clots to form and block blood flow to organs. This can lead to organ failure and death.
Though the researchers at the University of Pittsburgh have known for sometime that black patients are more likely to develop severe sepsis over white patients, they were uncertain whether these disparities were caused by differences in susceptibility to infection rates or in the risk of developing organ dysfunction once infection has occurred, said Dr. Florian B. Mayr, lead author of the study.
After examining data from hospitals in seven states and data on infection-related hospital visits, researchers found that both factors contribute to the higher rate of severe sepsis.
The study shows that blacks, compared to whites, had a 67 percent higher rate of severe sepsis and 80 percent higher mortality. Infection rates were 47 blacks and 34 whites per 1,000 people, and organ dysfunction rates were 29 percent higher in blacks than whites.
These findings are an important step in developing interventions to reduce these disparities, Mayr said.
"Many people know about heart attacks and kidney disease, but very few people actually know what severe sepsis is or what causes it," he said. "I think education of the general population is important."
Severe sepsis affects 750,000 people a year, and one in four people who develop the illness will die from it.
Mayr said individuals, communities, health care providers and policymakers all share the responsibility of reducing the disparities. Individuals must regularly receive the proper vaccinations, while health care providers must ensure access to quality care since severe sepsis rates are higher in hospitals that predominantly serve blacks, he said.
The study also found that racial disparities were the largest among younger adults.
"We were stunned by that finding," Mayr said. "We do not have a good explanation for that so far."
The researchers are now working on identifying reasons for the findings of this study. Mayr said both biological and socioeconomic differences could contribute to the disparities.
"I'm certain we have to improve and expand our work on understanding social variables," he said. "But on the other end, we're interested in looking into the biological explanations and if there are differences in response to infection. We have to consider every piece."

Bristol Bay/Symbolic Move ?
Aleutian basin oil, gas OK'd for lease
BRISTOL BAY: President approves lifting ban on sales in richest red salmon grounds.
By WESLEY LOY
Anchorage Daily News
Published: January 10, 2007
Last Modified: January 10, 2007 at 02:42 AM
But Juettner and others noted that years of work, including extensive environmental studies and other steps, remain before any drilling rigs go to work in the bay.
Eric Siy, executive director of the Alaska Marine Conservation Council, said his group would call on the new Democrat-controlled Congress to restore the Bristol Bay leasing ban.
The Bush administration Tuesday announced it had lifted a ban on offshore oil and gas leasing in Bristol Bay, ending months of speculation that the president was about to clear the way for what once was considered a taboo idea for the fish-rich region.
The state's top politicians generally hailed the action as a chance for Southwest Alaska to revive its threadbare economy.
But environmentalists and others panned the administration, saying that drilling and oil and gas development could ruin the bay's rich stocks of fish, sea mammals and birds.
The lifting of the ban, which dated to the presidency of Bush's father and otherwise was to remain in force until 2012, signifies a remarkable turnaround for a region where drillers long were shunned.
Drilling supporters say sentiments began to change in the late 1990s as the region's mainstay industry, salmon fishing, fell on hard times because of competition from foreign fish farmers.
They say oil and gas -- government geologists estimate the bay might hold large amounts of both -- could pump new economic vitality into the sparsely populated region, without hurting the fishing.
Bob Juettner, administrator of the Aleutians East Borough, the local government closest to the proposed leasing area, said the appeal of oil and gas is simple.
"It's money," he said. "It's money in the form of a new economy. It's money in the form of taxes."
But Juettner and others noted that years of work, including extensive environmental studies and other steps, remain before any drilling rigs go to work in the bay.
Federal officials have proposed offering 5.6 million acres for lease off the coast of the remote Alaska Peninsula. It's the same zone the government offered in a 1988 lease sale that drew $95 million in bids from oil companies.
Partly because of the catastrophic Exxon Valdez oil spill in Prince William Sound in 1989, the government bought back the drilling rights in 1995.
Interior Secretary Dirk Kempthorne said Tuesday that President Bush had lifted the leasing ban on Bristol Bay as well as on an area of the Gulf of Mexico south of Alabama.
Removing the ban clears the way for Bristol Bay lease sales, which the U.S. Minerals Management Service has proposed for 2010 and 2012.
Even though they were once booted out of the bay, oil companies are likely to show strong interest if acreage is again offered for lease, said Cam Toohey, a former Interior official who now works for Shell. The major oil company bought rights in 1988 and campaigned for lifting the Bristol Bay leasing ban.
U.S. Sen. Ted Stevens, R-Alaska, and other state politicians praised Bush's action, but said care must be taken not to damage the bay's extraordinary sea life.
"Imported farmed salmon, high energy costs and the region's remoteness have limited economic development and contributed to high poverty in the region," Stevens said. "The possibility of oil and gas development in Bristol Bay presents a series of new opportunities to the people of this region."
Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin, who herself has fished commercially in Bristol Bay, said she supports leasing "if we can be sure it will not threaten the fisheries that are the foundation of the region's economy and way of life."
While support for onshore drilling has been uniformly strong around the bay -- the state conducted a lease sale on the nearby Alaska Peninsula in 2005 -- support for offshore drilling has been far from unanimous.
Bay waters teem with the world's largest annual migration of sockeye salmon as well as king and snow crab, herring and bottom fish worth hundreds of millions of dollars a year. The bay also is rich in whales, walrus and other marine mammals important to Native subsistence hunters.
One whale species, the Northern Pacific right whale, is critically endangered, and leasing opponents say noisy seismic testing could disrupt the whales and other animals.
Bristol Bay is "really one of the last, best places in the world that we should subject to the very real risks of oil and gas development," said Rick Steiner, a University of Alaska professor who has spoken out globally about oil industry ills and spills.
"What I see over and over again is industry and the government overstating the potential benefits and understating the risks," Steiner said. "In this case, the risks dramatically outweigh the benefits."
Eric Siy, executive director of the Alaska Marine Conservation Council, said his group would call on the new Democrat-controlled Congress to restore the Bristol Bay leasing ban.
The Minerals Management Service sees the bay, also known as the North Aleutian Basin, as more of a natural gas prospect than oil. Government geologists estimate the zone could hold up to 23.3 trillion cubic feet of gas and 2.5 billion barrels of oil.
Shell representatives have been openly bullish about the bay's potential, showing groups of fishermen and others a vision of offshore platforms feeding natural gas to a port at Balboa Bay, near Sand Point, where the gas would be liquefied and loaded onto tankers.

Reaction to lifting the lease ban
"The president has opened the door for us. But we're going to walk through it very, very cautiously. We need to make sure development can work with the traditional commercial and subsistence fisheries we have relied on for thousands of years."
-- Stanley Mack, commercial fisherman and Aleutians East Borough mayor
"The decision gives residents of Bristol Bay the opportunity to look for new energy sources within their own region to meet their needs."
-- U.S. Sen. Ted Stevens
"Why risk ruining a billion-dollar fishery, a valuable sport hunting and fishing industry, a critical resource for Native Alaskans and one of the most important places for marine wildlife populations in the Bering Sea?"
-- Bill Eichbaum, World Wildlife Fund
"If we can be sure it will not threaten the fisheries that are the foundation of the region's economy and way of life, I'm all for it."
-- Gov. Sarah Palin
"The president's action today ends an admirable history of bipartisan protection for Bristol Bay."
-- Eric Siy, Alaska Marine Conservation Council
"This is not the end of the public process, but rather the start of a dialogue that could lead to important energy development in our state."
-- U.S. Sen. Lisa Murkowski
The Bush withdrawal from only means that Federal Agency can start process which needs years of environmental study as required by National Environmental Policy Act and has to pass the test of Endanger Species Acts.
Just recently Federal Court in Anchorage found the government's environmental analysis violated federal environmental laws and decided to strike down the Interior Department's leasing plan for the area around the internationally significant wildlife habitat around Teshekpuk Lake in the Northeast Planning Area of the National Petroleum Reserve, Alaska (NPRA). The decision prohibits the BLM from proceeding with a planned sale of oil and gas leases on more than 400,000 acres around the Teshekpuk Lake.
Any proposal to drill in Bristol Bay will also violate Endanger Species Acts!
Since 9-Circuit Appeal Court , which has the jurisdiction over Alaska, is very pro-environmental, it is unlikely that oil lobby will prevail to twist environmental law.
With Democrats in charge of the congress, the congressional ban will most likely be restore soon.
The congressional protection of Bristol Bay was lifted by Republicans as a part of Interior Department appropriation bill, which cant be veto, in 2003. The same way Democrats (Momost likely) will restore the ban soon, specially that many prominent Republicans, now inminority, in US Senate and Congress also oppose the drilling in pristine places like Arctic Refuge ( McCain).
Finally, before any rig will be placed in Bristol Bay, Bush will be long gone from the White House ( Yes!!!!) and the next president most likely will reinstate the ban, although
the congressional ban or court decision down the road, will do a job.
Very large amount of oil has been found recently in the Gulf of Mexico, significantly exceeding Alaska resources.
Still, the blind oilman, influenced by his master Dick and oil lobbyist present in every branch of the Federal Government will try to make one stupid decision after another.
Luckily, the climate in Washington has changed dramatically.

Fun stuff. Just got back from a vacation in California. It was nice to see my family; we also went skiing for a few days in some great snow. I still love Kirkwood. Would love to own a condo up there or something.
We also had a huge party on Saturday that included a 120lb roast pig. I'll have pictures of the pig up sometime soon, I hope.
Still continuing to work on Red Carpet; Arpeggio is coming along nicely.. I managed to capture DV video from a Bonobo component the other day, so that really had me excited (proof of concept and all that :-). Looking to move into a new apartment sometime in the next month or two, closer to the office and bigger, hopefully.

Covisint makes CEO change, names wireless exec to interim role
David McGuffie has been replaced as CEO of Detroit-based Covisint Corp. Named as interim CEO Thursday was Sam Inman, a veteran of the IT industry.
McGuffie, who had been an executive at Covisint since its founding in 2000, had been president since 2008 and CEO since 2012.
From 2008 to 2011, Inman was president and CEO of Comarco Wireless Technologies Inc., a California-based provider of mobile power supplies for laptops, cell phones and other handheld devices.
No replacement for president was named.
In the quarter that ended Dec. 31, the company, which went public in September, splitting off from Detroit-based Compuware Corp., had revenue of $24.1 million and a net loss of $8.3 million.
"Covisint remains an important growth asset operating in vibrant, dynamic markets. We simply missed on execution in Q4," said Covisint Chairman Bob Paul in a press release. He is also CEO of Compuware.
"At this important moment, the board has decided to take quick action to improve the company's execution. We're pleased to have someone of Sam's caliber to call on for renewed leadership and focus. He has an extensive technology background — including significant CEO experience — and a proven ability to drive growth. We look forward to working with Sam to drive the next stage of Covisint's growth," he said.
McGuffie was not mentioned by name in Covisint's news release. He is leaving the company.
"I'm honored, energized and excited to serve as interim CEO of Covisint," Inman said in the release. "I look forward to working with Covisint's employees, customers and shareholders to achieve the company's significant growth potential."
Covisint is a provider of cloud-based services and the exchange of secure data, primarily for the auto and health care industries.

Well, libFreeDnD is still in CVS. Heh. Hofstadter's (is that spelt right?) law strikes again.
But I'm porting Gnarr and Hackers to a new Perl module I wrote, Getopt::Subref. I'm really surprised no one wrote this earlier, it's a good idea.
I need some way to propogate this module... I want to use it a lot, and I don't want it to be burdensome to get for other people, and I don't have the time (or age) to put in for an official Debian developer application. I guess I could grab a sponsor or something. But I'm sure it's not Policy-compliant.
TODO: 1) FINISH LIBFREEDND, FMH! 2) Port over Gnarr, Hackers, and Lazy Backup to Getopt::Subref. 3) Get some sleep. Lots of it. 4) Finish web page Probably will do in reverse order.

Handling UEFI Secure Boot in smaller distributions
The plan for supporting UEFI Secure Boot in Fedora is still pretty much as originally planned, but it's dependent upon building a binary which has the Fedora key embedded, and then getting that binary signed by Microsoft. Easy enough for us to do, but not necessarily practical for smaller distributions. There's a few possible solutions for them.
- Require that Secure Boot be disabled
Not ideal. The UI for doing this is going to vary significantly between machines, making it difficult to document. It also means that the security benefits of Secure Boot are lost.
- Require that the machine be placed in Setup Mode
Clearing the enrolled Platform Key results in the system transitioning into Setup Mode, and from then on new keys can be enrolled into the key database until a new Platform Key is enrolled. Distributions could ship an unsigned bootloader that then writes the distribution keys into the database - James Bottomley has an example here. This means that the distribution can still benefit from Secure Boot, but otherwise has the same downside that the UI for doing this will vary between machines.
- Ship with a signed bootloader that can add keys to its own database
This is more interesting. Suse's bootloader design involves the bootloader having its own key database, distinct from those provided by the UEFI specification. The bootloader will execute any second stage bootloaders signed with a key in that database. Since the bootloader is in charge of its own key enrolment, the bootloader is free to impose its own policy - including enrolling new keys off a filesystem.
I've taken Suse's code for key management and merged it into my own shim tree with a few changes. The significant difference is a second stage bootloader signed with an untrusted key will cause a UI to appear, rather than simply refusing to boot. This will permit the user to then navigate the available filesystems, choose a key and indicate that they want to enrol it. From then on, the bootloader will trust binaries signed with that key.
Distributions are then able to take an existing signed copy of shim and put it on their install media, along with a file containing their key. If a user attempts to boot then the boot will fail because the second stage bootloader isn't signed with a trusted key, but the user can then use the navigator and select the distribution's key file. After providing confirmation and rebooting, the second stage bootloader's signature will now be recognised and the installer will boot.
This has the advantage over the first two options that the UI is consistent, making it easier to document the install process. The primary disadvantage is that the distribution won't be able to rebuild shim and will have to ship a pre-compiled binary. This may well be unacceptable to distributions like Debian, but should still provide a viable approach for other distributions who are either unwilling or unable to deal with Microsoft themselves.

I've been kind of rubbish about posting life updates over here, so I just thought I should make a note that I'm planning to move to Ballarat by the end of the year. Why? Well, my current housemates are going their separate ways and it was either find two new ones, or get a place by myself. Ballarat has cheap rent (not much more for a full house than it currently costs me for a room in a share house), fast internet, is only an hour or so from Melbourne by public transport (I expect to be back pretty regularly, maybe every week or two), and I can have a proper veggie garden.
For those not from around here: Ballarat is a small city of ~80,000 people near Melbourne, and was at the centre of the Victorian gold rush and also the site of the Eureka Rebellion of miners and others seeking reform (i.e. voting rights). In US terms it's a "college town", in that the local university is one of the biggest features. Although only the size of Boca Raton or Yuma it's not as conservative as a similar-sized US city would be; it has a Labor (centre-left) member of parliament, a decent portion of Green voters, and workable public transit, albeit on a small scale. UK people may like to compare it in size to Chester, Durham, or Bath.
I lived in Ballarat for a semester in the 1990s, on an internship with Mars Confectionery, whose Asia-Pacific HQ is on the edge of town. I found it pleasant apart from the work — Windows 3.1 and Novell support, which involved a lot of crawling under desks and scraping chocolate off the inside of keyboards. I was one of the few civilians in town to have any Internet access, as I managed to beg a 2400 bps dialup off someone at the uni computer centre. At age 19, it was only my dialup connection and weekend trips to Melbourne that managed to offset the boredom of office colleagues talking about football and lawncare; 20 years later, I don't have to work in an office, pretty much everyone torrents Game of Thrones, and though I don't much care about lawns people usually find my veggie-garden talk less weird than my obsession with Linux and cyberpunk SF was back then.
To answer a FAQ: yes, Ballarat is colder by Melbourne by a couple of degrees. I'm pretty sure I'll cope with it, since I lived 4 years in Canada. Bit of frost? Bring it!
To answer another FAQ: yes, I'll be expecting friends to visit!
More detail to follow once I actually have a house and stuff.

With the Star Wars Classic Trilogy DVD set coming this Fall, several e-tailers have begun offering preorders for the set, many with discounts off the suggested retail price of $70 and/or other incentives (for example, Amazon.com is currently offering the set at $42 plus free shipping). Despite being the controversial "Special Edition" version of the trilogy, it doesn't take the Force powers of a Jedi to foresee that this DVD set will be in high demand by the time it hits retail in late September.
So with that in mind, will you be preordering the DVDs, waiting to see if there will be a better offer - perhaps with different incentives - or holding out entirely for whatever reason?

| Lombardi's may generally be considered to be "America's first pizza," but as Nick Azzaro, owner of Papa's Tomato Pies, isn't shy about telling you, Papa's — founded in 1912 — is actually America's longest continuously owned family-owned pizzeria. With so much tradition, Papa's had to make the list of 35 Best Pizzas in America, especially since this year Papa's celebrated its centennial anniversary. For Papa's, the family behind the pie is just as important as the slice as the recipe has been passed down through generations.
The Azzaro family cooks up the made-to-order pies that can be customized in a variety of ways. Customers can choose from everything from garlic to mushrooms and pepperoni to meatballs, or add some anchovies for the extra kick. But for the Azzaro's it's the tradition that makes their restaurant unique. Speaking of which, for a Papa's original, check out their mustard pie.

| This Houston pizza joint is inspired, like many others on this list, by the Neapolitan version from Italy. But what others can't boast is that Pizaro's pizza is made by Bill Hutchinson, a Neapolitan pizzaiuolo — an Associazione Verace Pizza Napoletana-certified pizza maker. Along with his wife and son, Hutchinson runs Pizaro's in an effort to bring the flavors of Italy to Houston.

| The Italian government officially recognized Neapolitan pizza as a traditional food back in 1998 to preserve and continue the historic dish. They granted the style of pizza D.O.C (Denominazione di Origine Controllata) status to ensure that chefs adhere to the guidelines of what this pizza should be.
2Amy's is a member of that association, so when you bite into one of their pizzas you know that you are getting a quintessential traditional pie. Their menu is broken up into D.O.C pizza offerings, stuffed pizzas, and more traditional, but uncertified options. The marinara, margherita, and margherita extra, with tomato, mozzarella di bufala, and cherry tomatoes, make up the D.O.C options. There are also stuffed pizzas that boast mozzarella, ricotta, and fresh meats.

| EVO, which stands for "extra virgin oven," offers fresh, wood-fired, Neapolitan-style pizza made with seasonal and local ingredients. Produce from local farmers is used to develop these pies. The menu consists of just five pizzas, including Margherita, pistachio pesto, mushrooms and Gruyère, and the Pork Trifecta, and a three-cheese calzone, but the 17 extra topping choices allow customers to construct a towering feast.

| The local favorite has already seen its fair share of fame after winning the Best Traditional Pizza in New England award from Boston magazine seven times in the last 20 years, including last year. Santarpio's, which opened in 1903, sticks to their traditional routes when it comes to their infamous slices. Their menu consists of a variety of options, but also includes a list of customers' favorite combinations, like a pie that pairs sausage with garlic, ground beef, and onions, and even "The Works": mushrooms, onions, peppers, garlic, sausage, pepperoni, extra cheese, and anchovies.

| Spacca Napoli stands out from the rest of the Chicago pizza pack due to its unique take on Neapolitan-style pizza. The restaurant has garnered a laundry list of accolades, from the 2012 Michelin Bib Gourmand Award to a 95 percent "like" rating on Zagat.
The pizza is consistently applauded for its authenticity, as owner Jon Goldsmith travels to and from Naples regularly to study the flavors of the region. The menu differentiates pizze rosse (made with traditional red sauce, tomatoes, and topped with olive oil) from the pizze bianche (made without red sauce and topped with olive oil). Customers can dine on the prosciutto e rucola, bianca con bufala, diavola, or salsiccia when they're looking for an expertly prepared pie.

| You shouldn't plan on hitting Great Lake with a large group of your friends because the small space doesn't take reservations and only has enough seating for 12. Groups are limited to a maximum of four guests and seating is available at a first-come, first-served basis. Still, unlike some pizza pilgrimages, Great Lake's wait isn't unmanageable. The owners themselves will tell you it's actually a myth that you can't get seated.
But the Great Lake is very popular and for good reason. It uses meat and dairy products derived from pastured and humanely raised animals on family owned farms only. Their pies are known for their gourmet flair, and the cremini mushroom, Dante aged cheese, and black pepper pie is a customer favorite, as is their tomato sauce, Dante lamb cheese, and fresh herb pizza.

| On South Main Street in the heart of Providence, R.I., Al Forno offers a quintessential Italian dining experience for those who can't afford the flight. Husband-and-wife owner-chefs George Germon and Johanne Killeen received the Insegna del Ristorante Italiano from the Italian government, a rare honor for Americans, attributable to their informed passion for pasta along with their invention of the grilled pizza. The restaurant bakes their pies in wood-burning ovens as well as on grills over hardwood charcoal fire. Their grilled pizza margarita, with fresh herbs, pomodoro, two cheeses, and extra-virgin olive oil is probably their most notable pie.

| Anthony Mangieri took the New York pizza scene by storm when he opened his original pizzeria in Manhattan's East Village — then he devastated New Yorkers when he closed up shop in 2009 with dreams of moving out West. Now, the owner of Una Pizza Napoletana continues to keep things "pure and simple" with the pies baked in a wood-fired oven at his San Francisco spot. Although the menu may be limited, the restaurant packs a punch when it comes to its homemade pizzas. Diners choose from only five pizzas, all around $20, plus a special pie, Apollonia, made with eggs, Parmigiano-Reggiano, buffalo mozzarella, salami, extra-virgin olive oil, basil, garlic, sea salt, and black pepper, that's only available on Saturdays.

| Bronx native Chris Bianco opened this Phoenix pizza spot more than 20 years ago and is still collecting accolades. Bianco was featured in a New York Time article, where he said, "There's no mystery to my pizza. Sicilian oregano, organic flour, San Marzano tomatoes, purified water, mozzarella I learned to make at Mike's Deli in the Bronx, sea salt, fresh yeast cake, and a little bit of yesterday's dough. In the end great pizza, like anything else, is all about balance. It's that simple."
The restaurant serves not only addictive thin-crust pizzas but also fantastic antipasto (involving wood-oven-roasted vegetables), perfect salads, and homemade country bread. Reservations are accepted only for six or more, so be prepared to wait (though the wait is slightly more bearable now that they're open for lunch).

| Renowned baker and chef Nancy Silverton teamed up with Italian culinary moguls Mario Batali and Joe Bastianich to open Osteria Mozza, a Los Angeles hot spot where the famous clientele pales in comparison to the innovative, creative fare.
The pizzeria, which is attached to the main restaurant, offers a variety of Italian specialties, from antipasti to bruschetta, but the Neapolitan-style pizzas steal the show. Their list of 20 different pies ranges from $11 for a simple aglio e olio, a classic cheese pizza, to $24 for a more unique pie with squash blossoms, tomato, and burrata cheese.

| DeLorenzo's serves up some serious tradition with their pies — 65 years worth. Customers can top their small or large tomato pies selecting from a range of different toppings including anchovies, artichokes, spinach, sausage, and pepperoni. DeLorenzo's also offers a clam pie, albeit one with tomato sauce. New Haven pizza purists, beware!

| Nominated for the best new restaurant by the James Beard Foundation in 2008 and winner of the James Beard Foundations best mid-Atlantic chef in 2010, Osteria has some super credentials, and quite a bit of hype to live up to. Marc Vetri, Jeff Michaud, and Jeff Benjamin conceived the idea while on a trip in Tuscany, and we're glad they followed through.
The pizza at Osteria is very traditional, with a gourmet twist, offering pies like polpo, made of octopus, tomato, red chile flakes, and smoked mozzarella, or lombarda, with baked egg, bitto cheese, mozzarella, and cotechino sausage for a creamy and mild flavor. And the wine list isn't half bad either, with more than 100 Italian wines to accompany your award-winning pie.

| Scuola Vecchia brings a host of traditional Italian pizzas to Delray Beach, Fla., with a ton of different options for every pizza lover. Guests can choose from more than 20 different pizzas, from the traditional Margherita pizza to more complex pies like the capricciosa with fresh mozzarella, tomato sauce, Italian ham, artichokes, mushrooms, and extra-virgin olive oil. But if you can't find exactly what you're looking for, there's the option to build your own pie, starting with the foundation of either a marinara or Margherita.

| Sally's Apizza is a New Haven classic, operating from the same location where they opened in the late 1930s in New Haven's Wooster Square. Their pizza is traditionally thin crust, topped with tomato sauce, garlic, "mozz." The pies look pretty similar to what you'll find down the street at Frank Pepe, which any New Haven pizza believer will note is because the man who opened Sally's is the nephew of the owner of Pepe. The folks at Sally's will be the first to tell you that Pepe makes a better clam pie, but their tomato pie, well, they might have the original beat there.

I received a delivery from the UK today, and I want to mention it, to make sure if any else buys from thie eBay seller, to be sure to ask the right questions and get firm answers before you bid.
This issue was really one of caveat emptor. I should have asked better, more specific questions before buying. I accept responsibility.
Here's the meat & potatoes:
this auction's description said the box was "A little worn in places but pretty good."
I'll post a scan of the box. I had to cut the right side off the pic to get the image file within SSG attachment filesize limits, but you can see the worst part.
So, is it just me, or does this meet the seller's - grommit36 - description?

TUPELO – Chonda Pierce finds the funny in everything – even if she's got a flat.
"I blew a tire, so I'm at the car place getting it fixed," she said in a phone interview with the Daily Journal. "It's OK – I need the material."
Christian comedienne Pierce finds just about everything funny – "As long as there's no blood involved, anything can be funny," she said – which helped win her millions of fans.
Her new tour, "Girl Talk," is custom made for ladies.
"My audience has always leaned toward the female audience. As I say, a little Christian male bashing never hurt anybody," she said, laughing. "Comedy is about what you're familiar with."
Pierce draws on her life and the world when she's getting ready for a show.
"I open the newspapers every morning and see what's going on," she said.
The "Girl Talk" tour is set up like a talk show.
"I can't do (Dave) Letterman's Top 10 – I get bored at six or 7 – so we do Chonda's Top 5," she said. "It's like Ellen meets Letterman meets a stand-up comedian."
It's not entirely a ladies' night: Christian singer Geoff Moore is Pierce's special guest for this tour.
"I think it's hilarious when you take these singers along with you," she said. "It's like (singers) know what's gonna happen and they have the next song planned, and I don't. My favorite thing is throwing these guys off. It's so stinkin' funny."
This summer, Pierce will record a new DVD at the Ryman in Nashville and then go on a comedy cruise called the Laugh Boat.
But for now, she's excited to embark on her "Girl Talk" tour.
"We're in such a place economically and spiritually where we just need a good laugh," she said. "Life is serious enough, so let's laugh together and talk. That's where we got the 'Girl Talk' idea from. We have lots to say, so better get there early."

Who: Chonda Pierce with Geoff Moore
When: 7 p.m. April 5

What is it they say about working with children and animals? Well the crew on this shoot for Samsung got a huge surprise from the latter during a photo shoot earlier this year with the uninvited guest stealing the limelight way from the EcoBubble. Take a look at what happened……
The video had the children and I transfixed for the full 2 minutes and Imogen's comment afterwards summed it up for me. "Mummy, that Polar Bear was REALLY dirty!!"
The clever viral was made to promote the Samsung EcoBubble Washing Machine which boasts a Super Eco Wash programme delivering impressive wash results at just 15°C, using 70% less energy than a normal 40°C wash cycle. It works by mixing air with the detergent and water creating bubbles, this gets the detergent into the fibres of your wash up to 40 times faster and because it's so fast there's no need for a high wash temperature.
Other features include the Diamond Drum, with smaller holes to prevent snagging of fabrics, Fuzzy Logic control which automatically optimises the quantity of water used and cycle duration according to the load in the drum and Quiet Drive Motor which works without belts or pulleys reducing vibrations and noise. All of this also comes with a huge 10 year guarantee and quite possibly a queue of bears!!!
This post has been written in association with Samsung Electronics.

I have no girls in my life. At all anywhere. No sisters, no daughters, no nieces. So when I hear of a friend or a relative expecting a baby girl I get pretty excited. And then I start making something. Thank you to those of you out there who have little girls so that I can sew things for them.
This is my most recent baby girl gift set I put together:
Baby girl peasant dress with matching shoes, head band bow, and burp cloth. It was just too cute not to show it off.
I didn't actually come up with some of this myself-it's several tutorials put together, but I figured it was worth sharing the idea of pulling these things together.
You can find the peasant dress tutorial and pattern here. It's really easy to make. And I do mean really easy. If you have any sewing skills at all, you can probably pull this one off:
I did it slightly different than the tutorial…I added a little ruffle to the bottom instead of ric rac, mostly because the craft store had no red ric rac, but I love how it turned out.
Isn't that sweet? I got my ruffle premade at Hobby Lobby and just sewed it on (see picture below), folded it under and then top stitched.(See picture above for top stitching.)
For the shoes I used the pattern here. They turn out so cute! I have to warn you though, the tiny-ness of them makes them hard to sew. This is not a beginner project I don't think. Still, they aren't too hard, so don't be intimidated. They turn out ADORABLE! Especially the teeny tiny newborn size ones.
For the headband I created the idea myself. This is a VERY easy project that takes just a few minutes. Tutorial here.
And then I just added one of my burp clothes made from cloth diapers. Tutorial on that here. Very, very easy.
I think I might add some matching bloomers. Wouldn't that be amazing. What color should I do? Red polkadot? Just a nice white? Solid black. Not sure.
Loved making this baby gift! It's really not too hard to pull something like this together. More people have baby girls! Pretty please.

Try this one-skillet meal for an Asian-inspired take on pasta with meatballs, here using convenient frozen meatballs and plenty of veggies.
To reduce sodium, use unsalted roasted peanuts. Each serving with unsalted roasted peanuts contains about 37 fewer milligrams of sodium per serving.
Our Easy Meatball recipe would be a delicious variation.
Cut the pea pods in half at an angle to provide a more interesting shape.
Finish this Asian-inspired rice meal with litchi nuts and green tea ice cream. The rough, bright-red shell of fresh litchis surrounds creamy white flesh that is juicy and delicately sweet. Dried, litchis resemble a nut, so they are often called litchi nuts. Look for them fresh or dried in the produce area of the grocery store or canned in the Oriental area of the grocery store.

Storrs - With just over six weeks to go until Election Day, Republican Linda McMahon and Democrat Chris Murphy are in a statistical dead heat in the race for U.S. Senate, according to a University of Connecticut/Hartford Courant poll released Wednesday.
The poll of likely voters gives Murphy a slight edge with 37 percent of the vote compared to McMahon's 33 percent. But since the margin falls within the poll's 4 percent margin of error, it's essentially a tie, said UConn poll director Jennifer Dineen.
"Right now, this is anyone's race," she said. "Both candidates need to focus on that large number of undecided voters if they want to open up a lead going into the home stretch."
The live-caller poll of 517 likely voters was conducted Sept. 11-Sept. 16, 2012 and has a margin of error of 4 percentage points. Both land lines and cell phones were included in the sample. Details on the poll can be found at http://poll.uconn.edu.
Forty-eight percent of unaffiliated voters are still undecided, leaving that crucial vote largely up for grabs.
"It's good news for McMahon that she's winning over independents at that rate, but both campaigns should see it as an opportunity that one in two unaffiliated voters is still on the fence," Dineen said.
The Murphy campaign can take some encouragement in the fact that the relatively large number of undecided Democratic voters gives him a chance to bolster his overall numbers. While just 17 percent of Republicans remain undecided, 27 percent of Democrats have not made up their minds yet.
The high number of undecided voters comes despite months of television commercials blanketing the airwaves and thousands of mailers sent to homes across the state.
"The voters seem to be waiting for either candidate to give them a definitive reason for their support on Nov. 6," Dineen said. "With less than 50 days to go, it looks like this election is going to be decided by which candidate does a better job of mobilizing those voters."
Among the poll's other findings:
Murphy says McMahon using personal attacks to distract from her stance on issues
New London police, Mitchell College continue to investigate crowbar beating
Task force, Ledyard police arrest man in suspected heroin dealing
Police: Off-duty officer punched elderly Foxwoods employee in the face

New Web site provides residential college information
Posted November 30, 2005; 10:05 a.m.
A Web site has been
launched to provide undergraduates and other members of the University
community with up-to-date information on planning for the new
residential college system.
The site was developed by the Office of the Dean of the College and the Office of the Executive Vice President, in cooperation with the Office of Communications.
It offers a variety of documents and illustrations, including: the history of planning efforts; key reports and other planning documents that represent the work of successive groups of students, faculty and administrators; photographs and drawings of Whitman College and the planned reconstruction of Butler College; answers to frequently-asked questions about the new college system; and information about the current residential college system. The site will be updated as new information becomes available.
Undergraduate students and other members of the University community are encouraged to contribute suggestions, find out how to get involved in planning and provide other feedback by sending an e-mail message to email@example.com.
The residential college system, which currently includes five two-year colleges, is being transformed under a plan approved in 2000 by the trustees to increase the undergraduate student body from roughly 4,700 to 5,200. Under the new system, Whitman College, now under construction, will join Mathey and Butler colleges in housing students from all four classes, allowing for greater interaction among all students and more participation by juniors and seniors in the colleges' academic, social and cultural offerings. Each of the other three colleges (Forbes, Rockefeller and Wilson) will be paired with a four-year college, and all the colleges will include graduate students in residence.

Sachs, director of the Earth Institute at Columbia University, is widely considered a leading international economic adviser of his generation. He is a special adviser to United Nations Secretary-General Ban Ki-Moon. From 2002 to 2006, he was a special adviser to former Secretary-General Kofi Annan on the Millennium Development Goals, an international initiative to reduce extreme poverty, disease and hunger by 2015. He also is president and co-founder of the Millennium Promise Alliance, a nonprofit organization aimed at ending extreme global poverty.
Sachs has written or edited many books, including the best-selling "Common Wealth" and "The End of Poverty." In 2004 and 2005 he was named among the 100 most influential leaders in the world by Time magazine.
The American Whig-Cliosophic Society annually presents the James Madison Award for Distinguished Public Service -- named after one of the society's founding members -- to individuals from all fields who have exemplified the ideals of the organization and the University. Following the presentation, Sachs will give a lecture on his work eradicating poverty around the world, and lessons he has learned.
