I shall never forgive myself for having initiated and encouraged my younger brother, Didace Namujimbo, to take up journalism. Working for 21 years in Bukavu, a city nestled on the picturesque shores of Lake Kivu, led me to cover every aspect of the brutal conflict and humanitarian catastrophe in this part of eastern Democratic Republic of Congo, but a year ago nothing prepared me to deal with the news that my brother had been killed.
If I had known that such a fate awaited him, I think I'd have advised him to continue his studies at the Higher Institute of Rural Development in Bukavu, or pursue his passion for basketball. We were again in November, but in 1996 after Rwanda-backed rebels of Laurent-Désiré Kabila seized Bukavu in their march to end the more than 30 years of reign of Mobutu Sese Seko. I was among the few journalists who remained in Bukavu after the city fell into the hands of the Alliance of Democratic Forces for the Liberation of Congo (AFDL) of Kabila. To call people to return to the city, the rebels had come for me to be editor in chief of their propaganda station, "The People's Radio." Faced with the daunting task that awaited me, I appealed to Didace and other young people to help me air news and messages of ADFL, or announcements for those seeking missing children and relatives. I still remember how we nervously worked under the watchful presence of heavily armed Rwandan soldiers in the studio. Didace gained a taste for journalism and permanently filed away his textbooks.
Unlike Didace, I was dreaming of journalism since childhood when I played football in
shorts in the streets of
Unlike Didace, I was dreaming of journalism since childhood when I played football in
shorts in the streets of
Didace launched into journalism knowing it was a
high-risk occupation in my country, especially in our city of
Just days after the murder of my brother, it already
seemed like it would be déjà vu. Not only did
military prosecutors take over the case, removing it from the hands of police
and the criminal justice, but military investigators became almost hysterical
whenever we raised to them the possibility that members of the Congolese
armed forces could be involved in the killing.
I was forced to quickly launch my own
investigation and clues I communicated to military investigators helped them
arrest a dozen suspects.
However, everything changed on April 8, 2009. I was in
Bukavu, the same city where I found shelter in July 2004 when the men of the former warlord Gen. Laurent Nkunda were looking for me over a story about the rebel atrocities against the population in the region, was becoming synonymous with deadly insecurity for journalists. Another journalist, Bruno Koko Chirambiza was killed in August and death threats were made against three women journalists two weeks later. There has not been a single arrest in any of these cases.
In the absence of justice and amid growing
insecurity, my family and I were forced into exile. Over the past year, military prosecutors repeatedly announced the
imminent start of the trial of the suspected killers of Didace, only to
postpone it to a later date that never comes. Meanwhile, some suspects
have already escaped from custody. It would not surprise me if there was an
authority behind this murder or if the judges have been bribed or intimidated
in one way or another. I challenge them to contradict me by finally starting
this process!
While we await justice, Didace will live in the pages of my upcoming books recounting my experience covering the war in eastern

GOP House hopefuls to debate at VCSU
The five Republican candidates for North Dakota's only seat in the U.S. House of Representatives will debate for the first time Wednesday night on the VCSU campus.
The debate will include Public Service Commissioner Kevin Cramer of Bismarck; former Department of Commerce Commissioner Shane Goettle of Bismarck/Mandan; state Representative Bette Grande of Fargo; Public Service Commissioner Brian Kalk of Bismarck; and state Representative Kim Koppelman of Fargo.
The candidates are vying for the representative seat that will be left vacant by current Rep. Rick Berg, who is mounting a U.S. Senate run in 2012.
The forum will be hosted by District 24 of the North Dakota Republican Party, and moderated by "We the People" radio host Chris Berg, of 1100 AM "The Flag". District 24 Republicans Vice Chair Jon Wagar will serve as the emcee.
"We're looking for a very exciting evening, as it is the first, and maybe the only time all five candidates will meet," said event chair Rick Ross, a Valley City resident and member of the District 24 Republicans.
"What I'm hoping is to see where they stand on national issues and see if anyone steps forward to take a lead in the fray," said Ross. "These are some very qualified candidates."
The Republican U.S. House Candidates' Forum begins at 6:30 p.m. on Wednesday, Dec. 14 at the Vangstad Auditorium, and Ross mentioned the doors will open at 6 p.m. The debate will be broadcast on 1100 AM, and will be streamed live at www.am1100online.com. The public is encouraged to attend.

- Jason deCaires Taylor Urban Reef Mexico 1The world's oceans are in trouble. The recently released Ocean Health Index gives our oceans an overall score of 60 on a scale of 0 to 100 - that's not good. Once thriving, clean, and full of spectacular marine life, the oceans are now full of pesticides, plastic trash, and oil.Like canaries in the coal mine, coral reefs have already begun to suffer the consequences of human carelessness. Rather than become worried or depressed, artist and underwater naturalist Jason deCaires Taylor has created a series of surreal underwater houses that will serve as artificial reefs to give ocean creatures a fighting chance.1
- Jason deCaires Taylor Urban Reef Mexico 2According to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Association, carbon dioxide (C02) absorbed into the ocean from the atmosphere has already begun to reduce calcification rates in reef-building and reef-associated organisms by altering sea water chemistry.2
- Jason deCaires Taylor Urban Reef Mexico 3Also, as temperatures rise, mass bleaching , and infectious disease outbreaks are likely to become more frequent. When coral reefs die off, it puts an entire ecosystem out of business, forcing many different sea creatures to seek shelter elsewhere.3
- Jason deCaires Taylor Urban Reef Mexico 4To help the reefs survive in the face of huge challenges, Taylor is constructing a series of underwater shelters. While the sculptures are meant to be inhabited by sea creatures, this latest series, called "Urban Reef" takes the form of homes you're likely to see in your own neighborhood.4
- Jason deCaires Taylor Urban Reef Mexico 5According to designboom, the artist developed these installations with the guidance of local marine biologists.5
- Jason deCaires Taylor Urban Reef Mexico 6They are meant to shelter various reef inhabitants in several rooms and hideaways from predators such as lion fish and barracudas.6
- Jason deCaires Taylor Urban Reef Mexico 7The collection resides among some 450 sculptures in the rather vast MUSA (Museo Subaquatico de Arte) off the coast of Cancun, Mexico. Taylor created the world's first underwater sculpture park, now listed as one of the Top 25 Wonders of the World by National Geographic, near Grenada in the West Indies, in 2006.7

A French Fancy is a British variety of iced sponge cake, resembling petits fours. It is two square layers of cake with a flavoured filling topped with a dollop of buttercream all wrapped in a layer of fondant. They are very sweet, often being comprised of up to 50% sugar and most often come in strawberry, lemon, and chocolate. It was served at the Luchino Caffe, an all-night Italian café on Tottenham Court Road in London, where it cost £1.70.[1]
- LEGO Harry Potter: Years 5-7 (Mentioned on a sign)
Mr Kipling, the main British manufacturer of French Fancies, usually makes them in the above-mentioned flavours, with the colours thus being pink, yellow and dark brown; but for the Queen's Diamond Jubilee in summer 2012, they produced "limited edition" packs in red, white and blue. It is not known what flavours these were.
In one previous year, they also produced a Hallowe'en pack where the flavours were orange and chocolate, allowing the colours to be the Halowe'en colours of orange and black (or brown in this case).

Lisle, Illinois ~ High school students, their friends and parents are invited to check out Benedictine University during a Fall Open House from 12:00-3:00 p.m. on Sunday, October 27 or Sunday, November 10.
The open houses provide high school students the opportunity to meet with University staff members to discuss Benedictine's academic programs, admissions requirements, application process, available scholarships and financial aid. Customized tours of campus will also be provided based on each student's major area of interest. Both events begin with an optional Mass at 11:00 a.m. at St. Procopius Abbey, located at 5601 College Rd., in Lisle, just east of the Benedictine campus, followed by registration at 12:00 p.m. in the Krasa Student Center.
Prospective students can also attend an orientation to learn more about the University's Scholars Program, which offers academically talented students special opportunities to develop their skills as thinkers, readers and writers through a coordinated program of seminar-style coursework that emphasizes discussion and debate. The program also aims to help its members grow as leaders and global citizens by heightening their understanding of other cultures and encouraging a commitment to socially responsible action.
According to affordablecollegesonline.org, Benedictine University is ranked among the top 25 most affordable Catholic colleges and universities in the country with the highest starting salaries earned by graduates.
Benedictine students receive a values-based, Catholic education that prepares them to defy the status quo and reach their full potential. Whether receiving personal instruction from teachers with the highest degrees in their fields, conducting research, participating in internships or applying for more than $300,000 in academic scholarships, academic opportunities abound.
Benedictine students challenge themselves every day and gain a greater perspective on the world through study abroad trips, guest lecturers, music concerts, student clubs and athletic teams.
To RSVP to either open house, go to www.ben.edu/fallOH. For more information, contact the Enrollment Center at (630) 829-6300 or email@example.com.
Benedictine University is an independent Roman Catholic institution located in Lisle, Illinois just 25 miles west of Chicago, and has branch campuses in Springfield, Illinois and Mesa, Arizona. Founded in 1887, Benedictine provides 55 undergraduate majors and 17 graduate and four doctoral programs. Benedictine University is ranked No. 1 among the country's fastest-growing campuses between 2000-2010 in The Chronicle of Higher Education's list of private nonprofit research institutions, and Forbes magazine named Benedictine among "America's Top Colleges" for the third consecutive year in 2013. Benedictine University's Master of Business Administration (M.B.A.) program is listed by Crain's Chicago Business as the fifth largest in the Chicago area in 2013.

RALEIGH – 49 people were arrested Monday during an NAACP rally outside the chamber of the NC General Assembly. It's the third consecutive week of protests and now, close to 100 people have been arrested.
"There are so many things that are being attacked that we feel it's important that more and more people need to show up to say that they are appalled by what is going on," said protester Lynn Harmon of Chapel Hill.
NAACP state chapter president Rev. William Barber led an estimated 175 activists for "Moral Monday"—speaking out against what they say is a regressive agenda against voting rights, social welfare programs, and education. They believe this legislation will hurt the poor and minority groups.
"The state government is destroying the fabric of support for poor people in this state," Harmon said. "I've been here now for 45 years and it's like we're just stepping backwards."
The protesters split into two groups—those who planned to be arrested and their supporters.
Those who planned to be arrested led the way into the Legislative Building, singing and chanting. The police warned those who had been arrested during previous NAACP prostests there that they would be arrested again for trespassing.
Chapel Hill resident Marion Hirsch's daughter Sara was arrested Monday night.
"I support her completely. It's not the first time she's been arrested for an issue of conscience. I'm also here to support the other protestors," Hirsch said.
The NAACP originally organized the protests—but the movement has grown. Social groups representing various issues and activists from a wide-range of backgrounds are protesting along side the civil rights group.
Chapel Hillians of faith from congregations like the Community Church of Chapel Hill Unitarian Universalist and the United Church of Chapel Hill also made the trek to Raleigh.
"I'm very concerned about this legislature and the good things that have been put into place that I see disappearing now," said Linda Textoris of Binkley Baptist Church in Chapel Hill.
A crowd remained outside the side of the Legislature, cheering as two prison buses carried arrested protesters away.
Barber vows that this "wave of civil disobedience" will continue—protesters said they plan to be back next week.

Copper. All of our cookware has a low-maintenance brushed copper finish. However, normal usage can cause any copper cookware to discolor and tarnish. To keep your cookware looking new, we recommend occasionally using a non-abrasive cleaner such as Bon Ami and a nylon pad on the copper vessels. Plain dishwashing soap and a sponge should work for normal cleaning purposes. For tougher stains, try a paste of equal parts ketchup and salt. Polish occasionally with Flitz Polish.
Stainless steel. Never dissolve salt on the surface of any stainless steel as it can cause pitting. If cooking pasta in our cookware, we recommend adding salt to the pot after it comes to a boil and rinsing the pot out immediately after use. Our warranty does not cover pitting from excessive salt exposure.
Cast iron. Alway dry cast iron immediately after washing and do not leave it soaking in water as it will rust. If you wish to cure the Classical Line handles, you can apply a small amount of vegetable oil to the cast iron (try avoiding the copper) and place in a 250 degree oven for 30-40 minutes.

Omid, please tell your sister, BEAUTIFUL PIES. I bet she had a good teacher, as her pies look a lot like yours.MArk
Just like in "The Wizard of Oz".....it's how the man behind the curtain operates the controls.
Awesome results with the Piccolo!Thanks Omid, please keep up the good work and all the experiments that you perform for all of us to benefit....Bravissimo......
The pizzas are beautiful (and beautifully lit, as well as photographed!)The coal bed at the end of the bake is beautiful!The thinking that you are doing about the variables is amazing to me!John K
I can only wish I will come close to you pizza making ability. Truly stunning.
This is an excellent representation of the pizza napoletana! Great pictures, too. Thank you for sharing your experiment! Ciao, Paulo and Piccolo fans! Giuseppe
Ever throw a steak on that bed Omid?
100 pages best thread ever!
that's a strong control group! did you shield the floor before baking those? bill
Hi Omid, some infos on the productThe recommended dose is 50 grams per kilo of flour, while the amount of yeast commonly used remains unchanged (it's used as a flavoring agent) and the shelf life is 16 months.On the package:The pizza made with the criscito has best organoleptic characteristics and several advantages:- Shelf life;- Extensibility;- Digestibility;- Taste;- Crisp cold
talking to some pizzaiolos wen in Naples, including Guglielmo Vuolo (pizzeria Vuolo), Gianni Improta (pizzeria all 22) and Paolo Surace (pizzeria Mattozzi) about natural fermentation, i ask what exactly was Criscito, they all told me it was different from Lievito Madre, Criscito for this guys is Old Dough, and Lievito Madre is Sourdough (natural starter). i have posted an interview with Guglielmo Vuolo here in the Neapolitan tread where he says that... and wen i staged at Mattozzi, some dough from lunch was left over and i asked Paolo what was done with that dough, he said, i used it as Criscito for tomorrow's dough.
. . . We need to distinguish between . . . leavening agents (commercial yeast vs natural yeast or "CRISCETO" as it is known in Naples). . . . When we talk about starter, natural leaven, wild yeast, we are talking about a microflora of wild yeast and bacteria which strive in a mix of flour and water. A piece of this mix, can be used only as starter for the next dough. . . . The old dough method, is a way of using a piece of acidified dough from the previous batch (thus including salt and usually made with a natural wild yeast starter otherwise doesn't have leavening power). When using a culture starter from another regions, like the Italians one, I strongly recommend not to use the old dough method, but instead the Mother dough method.In the mother dough method, a piece of dough made with only water and flour plus the culture starter, is refreshed with a 50% addition of water and flour, and after is left to ferment for a minimum time of 3-6 hours, a piece is cut off (the daughter) and used as fermenting agent or in large quantity as preferment. This way, thanks to the strong inoculating of the original mother dough into the refreshment, there is a better chance to avoid contaminations.
Dear Andre, I have noticed that certain terminologies within the field of baking (i.e., how certain terms are defined) sometimes differ from region to region and from person to person within a region in Italy. For instance, in contrast to how Mr. Vuolo or Surace define "criscito"
if it is available I'm sure we will see it at the vegas show.
we will take lots of pictures and report on our experiences. when i visited antimo last year in naples he stated that da michele used a percentage of criscito in its dough i do not have the percentage in front of me but he did give it to me. yeast was still used in the formula he gave me. using old dough to flavor fresh is nothing new, a lot of american pizza makers do this and have been since i can remember. my first days in pizza shops was over 40 years ago and it was practiced then.
Dear Bill, thank you! Yes, I used the aluminum plate between the bakes in order to keep my oven floor well-tempered. It works really great for me. It should work as good for anyone else who is facing the same problem. Have you tried the shield in your oven yet? If yes, what were the results? Have a great day!Omid
When i visited Antimo last year in naples he stated that da michele used a percentage of criscito in its dough i do not have the percentage in front of me but he did give it to me. Yeast was still used in the formula he gave me. Using old dough to flavor fresh is nothing new. . . .
Omid, when i met Antimo my question to him was whether or not they used yeast or a natural levain . he said "yeast" and they also add crescito at about 5% of the flour weight. he then explained that crescito was old dough. that is as far as he went with his explanation.
The original Italian text:Noi facciamo ancora la pizza con il cosiddetto "crìscito", vale a dire con la pasta fatta il giorno precedente alla cottura, che lievita naturalmente.Google translation of the text:We still do pizza with the so-called "criscito", that is, with the dough made the day before baking, which rises naturally.Source: http://damichele.net/pdf/g.vreppublica.pdf
They use lievito di birra fresco or fresh brewer yeast, as they call it, which is just fresh commercial yeast. The article you have posted clearly demonstrated that they "play" with the understanding of the general public, as he basically says: "we still make the dough using 'Crisceto', I mean making the dough the day before service", which is not like using a natural culture. . . .
The original Italian text:A raccontarmi la storia della pizzeria "Da Michele", è il dottore Francesco Condurro. . . . Eppure la pizza, fatta con il lievito madre, è sempre filologicamente la stessa di sempre, piaccia o non piaccia: di monacale semplicità.(Source: http://www.lucianopignataro.it/a/pizzeria-da-michele-margherita-o-marinara-dal-1870/17112/)The Blog's own English translation of the text:Francesco Condurro, who is a "professional accountant-pizza maker", told me the story of the pizzeria "Da Michele". . . . They [pizzas] are made with mother yeast and the taste is still the one of the past.(Source: http://www.lucianopignataro.com/articolo.php?pl=4458)

History [1]
On a spring day in 1868, San Francisco banker James Sloan Hutchinson caught sight of two men dragging a terrified hog along the rough cobblestone street. Appalled, Hutchinson stepped in to stop the cruelty and rescue the hog. The incident crystallized Hutchinson's concern over widespread animal abuse, and he soon rallied 15 like-minded citizens to found the San Francisco SPCA.
Since then the SF SPCA has become one of San Francisco's most enduring and respected institutions. It is a national leader in saving homeless cats and dogs and working to end animal abandonment.

Click to view Last night, Hannah Storm was on hand for Heat-Celtics game coverage and wore a dress and boots. Hannah Storm wears dresses and boots quite often, but it led to an assortment of heavy-breathing on Twitter.
Last night on Twitter, Barry, rhetorically asked, "Are people typing all these Hannah Storm Tweets with their boners?"
What did he mean, I wondered, so I headed off to Twitter myself to find out. Here are the findings (Twitter accounts quoted here are listed at bottom).
All sic'd.
First we have the tsk-tskers:
Hannah storm walks a thin line in terms of appropriate clothing.
Hannah storm needs to dress a little more professional, no wonder woody paige called her out a year ago.
o hannah storm. you should know better by now. maybe she wants inappropriate messages left on her voicemail and dick pics.
Some sought to be above the fray:
Hannah Storm can get it. And when I say 'it', I mean 'entirely way too much attention from the internet'.
Others, not so much:
Don't want to get suspended like Kornheiser so I'll play it safe & say Hannah Storm dresses like a total whore these days
Hannah storm is like an old maid cougar that is desperately seeking attention in the pride # fail # jimgraysux
The breathing-into-the-phone crowd showed up with gusto.
Hannah Storm is kind of hot.
Hannah storm a pretty white lady
Oh, and Hannah Storm though...? # cougar ass # yamp could STILL get it.
Hannah Storm always dresses mad slutty lol
good lord Hannah Storm
WoW! Hannah Storm going street corner on the # NBA coverage. She brought more Heat than the Heat last night
Hannah Storm was so hot last night on SportsCenter I had to switch it to standard definition until I could pull myself together. # niceboots
Holy god Hannah Storm is hot!
isnt today's bigger story not the mihammy heat losing, but hannah storm's cocktail dress and [redacted] boots?
I want to bone Hannah Storm.
Hannah Storm can get her tits licked in public..
[Editor's note: Wow.]
Luckily, the sorta charming were there to make it all ok.
If I was a professional athlete I would definitely take Hannah storm out on the town maybe a romantic boat ride or somethin then dinner
That was fun. Can't wait until next time.

Our Fitness Blog
Are You an Empowered Woman?
I don't vacuum in high heels or anything, but, I do still vividly recall finding my power as a woman. The contrast is, I can still remember myself when I was definitely NOT powerful. I had lost all sense of who I was. It was about 11 years ago. My daughter was 4.
Let me backtrack a little before even that. I grew up with fitness as a part of my life. You know what's next…… it was Jane Fonda videos in my living room!
Well, for some reason, after motherhood, I forgot who that girl was. Meaning, myself! I really let myself go. (Analyze that term and it goes deeper than just not wearing lipstick to the grocery store anymore…..you'll find a person whose let her true self go away.) I stopped eating healthy. I stopped exercising. I gained weight! It wasn't baby weight either. That excuse can only work for a few short months! I was at my heaviest. At 5 foot 2 inches it doesn't take much to look like a small hippo….but, anyway. I remember something igniting a renewed fire for working out again and I had an awakening, thinking…. "Why have I done this to myself all these years?" It was almost like I'd been in some kind of trance for those years. I felt heavy, I was depressed and definitely NOT being true to myself.
I went out, bought a new set of VHS tapes (yep, tapes!) and popped them into my VCR. I almost died. I distinctly remember the host of the video saying this with a big ol' smile on her face: "If this is too easy, you can pick up some 10 lb weights in each hand and make it a bit tougher."
I literally wanted to smack her through the screen.
I will never forget thinking, "What is WRONG with her? Who in the world could possibly add weights to this move?!" And I'm pretty sure I also thought…"I hate her!" ;)
Here's the beautiful part: in TWO short weeks, I was buying me a set of 10 lb dumbbells b/c my body had responded that quickly and I was noticeably stronger. I was AMAZED with my progress. The power that surged through me was familiar and yet new at the same time. I had felt strong before, but not THIS strong.
I was empowered.
I was mentally a different person and I was flying high. I have never come back down. I have NEVER stopped working out since.
Here's another twist on my story: these were aerobic tapes with a popular piece of equipment included, (the step) and lots of jumping, lunging, etc. and some dumb bells also. But, they incorporated a few sections of kicking and punching into the air. At that time, I had never done this type of moves before.
On a personal note, these particular moves were MORE THAN FITNESS MOVES for me at that time in my life. I was dealing with quite a few challenging changes in my life, and I noticed these exercise moves really helped relieve my stress! They also were the moves that made me feel the strongest!
Fast forward a couple of years, and this experience was what attracted me to take karate with my daughter. We both ended up getting our black belts, but even better, it's how I met my husband, Shannon "the Cannon" (oh, you've heard of him?) and it's what made co-founding 9Round Fitness such an intensely passionate journey for me! I have loved every minute of the evolution of 9Round 30 Minute Kickbox Fitness with him.
It's NO SECRET to me why we have so many female members across the country. Women may not realize how amazing punching and kicking will make them feel MENTALLY, with the ADDITIONAL benefit of getting them in the best shape of their lives! I'll be honest, I was in "good shape" before we opened our first 9Round Club…..I THOUGHT!!!!!!
Boy, was I DEAD WRONG!
I might have been in shape, but not 9ROUND SHAPE! I have taken my fitness to a level I never dreamed was possible with 9Round. After two kids, I am in better shape than I was before I had ANY kids. No lie. Why the difference? I just didn't have a structured, fun, do-able program to follow before 9Round. What I also didn't have was a trainer pushing me harder than I thought I could go, and holding me accountable, which has made all the difference!
I know that any woman out there, who feels down at all about her body, or just feels down about herself period, will benefit from the experience of a successful fitness journey. We have that for you at 9Round. The best part is you do not need to be in any kind of shape to get started, we will take you there. And if you already are in amazing shape, we will take you farther! I guarantee it. Try us out, you won't regret it!
This is my before & after just to prove that 9Round's first success story was ME!

Work and Organization Studies
Work and Organization Studies
It would be hard to imagine a better moment in history to study and influence the research and policies affecting organizations, people, and work. The upheaval in institutions, organizations, and individuals' work lives is dramatic and disruptive. At the institutional level, we are in the midst of a persistent, worldwide employment crisis, with a jobs deficit carried forward from the Great Recession and a long-term trend of stagnating wages and growing inequalities in income, wealth, and opportunity.
At the organizational level, we continue to see rapid transformation in the nature of organizations, work, and people. Organizations are flattening, partnering, globalizing, outsourcing, open sourcing, downsizing, reengineering, and innovating in myriad ways in order to be competitive, innovative, and flexible in a rapidly changing and unpredictable world. The boundaries between work and family, government and industry, and organizations and supply chains are increasingly fluid.
At the individual level, we see the necessity for new skills at negotiating, managing work and family obligations, and seeing interconnected human systems; we see new ways of leading, often in a distributed way and in virtual environments; we see new diversity in the work force and the misalignment of individual needs and cultural expectations and stereotypes; and we see women and people of color continue to be disadvantaged, exacerbating the inequalities that already exist.
These are the pressing issues that the faculty and students in WOS are investigating. They are addressing critical questions pertaining to work, organizational design, leadership and change, negotiations and conflict resolution, decision-making, careers, and labor market institutions and policy making.

Today's News, Brought to You By Tech Giants
The lines have gotten even blurrier since the Internet kneecapped newspapers. In the past few years, media companies called themselves tech companies, then that distinction became meaningless. In between, tech honchos spent their loose change on magazines and newspapers or just financed their own.
Now Facebook and Twitter, which started out more as distribution channels for news, are getting deeply involved in what becomes the story and whether you see it.
Today, in partnership with Twitter, a five-year-old New York startup called Dataminr, announced a tool that help will help CNN, and eventually other publications, find breaking news from Twitter's unwieldy fire hose. This is the first project from Vivian Schiller, Twitter's recently appointed head of news.
Dataminr had already been sifting through social media to help "big banks and hedge funds make real-time investment decisions," explains the Verge. Now they've adjusted the algorithm for journalists. According to TechCrunch:
"It is very quickly becoming an essential tool," said CNN Digital Managing Editor Meredith Artley.
Asked how the product can distinguish between accurate news and hoaxes, he noted that Dataminr for News looks at "after the first tweet information" to assess accuracy based on factors like whether there are "corroborating sources on the ground" and whether there are different "initial nodes" spreading the news. That won't guarantee accuracy, but he said it will allow journalists to "move up that confidence curve."
What people say on Twitter and Facebook becomes the story itself so consistently that an algorithm that, at least, tries to climb that accuracy curve should've been implemented awhile ago. Left unsaid in the announcement is that this encourages editors to privilege the kind of stuff that's shared on Twitter over things that have yet to make their way online. (There is still a world out there. Last time I checked.)
But what's more unsettling is Facebook's impending news play. Earlier this week, Re/code reported that Facebook was trying to hire actual human editors instead of an algorithm to "start telling you which news stories you should be reading," through Paper a "secret" Facebook project to build its own news app.
This is bound to cause some friction, noted Re/Code:
Facebook's efforts on Paper appear at a tough time for the company's publisher relationships. Facebook recently said it plans to alter the way it ranks News Feed stories, favoring some "high-quality" content at the cost of other items. To date, Facebook hasn't publicly elaborated what that means for publishers — which, as my colleague Peter Kafka previously reported, has given content companies pause.
Facebook editors jumping into the role of arbiters, then, could spook an already-wary publisher landscape — one which is increasingly relying on Facebook as a means of content distribution.
No few Facebook employees should have all that power.

Mike Vick may not be the fastest quarterback in the NFL, but he's surely the fastest in Philly. The race to start for the Eagles, however, isn't a sprint. It's also not a marathon.
It's more of a Superstars-style obstacle course. And there are indications that Nick Foles could be in the lead through the tires and the rope swing and approaching the wall.
Our brethren at Rotoworld found an item from Jimmy Kempski of the Allentown Morning Call making a case that Foles performed better than Vick during offseason workouts. "Foles got the ball out quicker than Vick, was generally more accurate, and is putting receivers in a better position to get yards after the catch," Kempski writes.
Vick's edge comes from speed, arm strength, and NFL experience. Of course, NFL experience means little for a team with a head coach who has none. At all. Of any kind.
The suggestion that Foles has an edge shouldn't be a surprise. If Vick clearly had the lead, Vick already would be named the quarterback. And receiver DeSean Jackson offered perhaps the most telling assessment in the offseason, saying that the competition is "kind of even."
If it ends up kind of even, Vick could be kind of benched. And if he's kind of benched, there's a chance he could be kind of gone.

"Ren and Helen Davis have provided a valuable guide to Oakland Cemetery, one of Atlanta's true jewels. Their richly illustrated work explores Oakland's evolution, a wide range of characters both prominent and little-known, the cemetery's natural landscapes, and its rich symbolism and iconography. Atlanta's Oakland Cemetery will be of interest to both students and scholars of the city's past and the general public alike."
—Cliff Kuhn, coauthor of Living Atlanta: An Oral History of the City, 1914–1948
In Atlanta and Environs, historian Franklin M. Garrett wrote that Oakland Cemetery is "Atlanta's most tangible link between the past and the present." Within its forty-eight acres are more than seventy thousand personal stories—of settlers and immigrants who forged a city from a rowdy railroad camp, former slaves who carved out lives in a segregated world, soldiers in blue and gray who were cut down in a brutal civil war, and civic and business visionaries who rebuilt the Phoenix City from the ashes of war and carried it to prominence on the international stage.
Today, Atlanta's oldest public cemetery remains a must-see destination for anyone interested in the city's colorful story. Past the grieving mien of the Lion of Atlanta, which guards nearly three thousand unknown Confederate soldiers, visitors can pay respect to those who made Atlanta history—former slave Carrie Steele Logan, who founded the first orphanage for African American children; Joseph Jacobs, owner of the pharmacy where Coca-Cola was first served as a fountain drink; Morris and Emanuel Rich, founders of the storied Rich's Department Stores; golfing Grand Slam legend Bobby Jones; Gone With the Wind author Margaret Mitchell; Maynard Jackson, the city's first African American mayor, and many others. Aside from its importance as a historic site, Oakland is among the nation's finest examples of a rural garden cemetery, characteristic of the nineteenth-century movement to transform stark burial grounds into pastoral landscapes for both the repose of the dead and the enjoyment of the living.
With Ren and Helen Davis's engaging narrative, rich photography, archival images, and detailed maps, Atlanta's Oakland Cemetery is a versatile guide for touring the cemetery's landscape of remembrance, as well as a unique way to explore Atlanta's history.

'The Big Snowstorm' Hit Two Years Ago Today
It is hard to believe, but it was two years ago today that one of the biggest snowfalls to hit the area began. A wintry mix of snow and sleet spread into central Missouri near daybreak on Tuesday, February 1st, 2011 and the wintry precipitation quickly overspread the area into Western Illinois during the morning.
This winter storm produced quite a range of hazardous winter weather conditions across the area. Heavy snow fell across central and northeast Missouri into west-central Illinois with rates at times exceeding 2 inches per hour. These high snowfall rates combined with strong northwest winds gusting from 35-50 mph produced blizzard conditions with near zero visibility at times in white-outs and snow drifts of 3 to 5 feet deep.
Total snowfall accumulations in the Hannibal and Quincy area ranged from 14-22 inches. I managed to get myself home but worried about getting back to the station the next morning. As it turned out, I was the only one to make it to the station the next day.
It was so quiet outside with sunshine dominating the day and next to no traffic moving in the city. I remember there were so many phone calls to the station that day with cancellations it was hard to keep up with everything. It got to the point that it was just easier to mention what was open rather than what was closed that day.
It's been two years now and we have not had any significant snowfall since. It was a snowfall for the ages and one almost everyone around will remember for the rest of their lives.

- Why do you write strong female characters?: "The heart of the question implies that if a male character is 'strong' that's to be expected, because boys and men are strong. Normal. Default. Go about your business. But if a female character leads a story, does stuff, has a voice and a purpose and changes her life or others' lives or starts or stops a war or makes a stand or has power then it's newsworthy, because that's not expected, not true to life. Not normal. Not our default assumption about girls. So stop and take note."
- You can't determine an author's gender from a sample of their writing: Summary of 10 sample stories and over a thousand guesses at authorial gender.
- Play with my V spot? | VentureBeat: "Guys, this is why we don't have more women in tech: It's a cesspool. As long as we're passing offensive schlock like this off as marketing for a major technology conference, we don't deserve more women in tech."
- Don't underestimate Viking women: "'To assume that Viking men were ranked above women is to impose modern values on the past, which would be misleading,' cautions Marianne Moen. She has been studying how women's status and power is expressed through Viking burial findings. Her master's thesis The Gendered Landscape argues that viking gender roles may have been more complex than we assume."
- A Remarkable Number of Women: "You can tell you're in a male-dominated discipline in the sciences when a gathering of three or more women working, standing, or sitting together in a professional setting in that field is considered 'remarkable.'"
- Take the pledge: Don't serve on all-male panels: "A hopeful new trend is growing: People are noticing when conference speakers are all or mostly men (and often all white as well). And they are asking questions: What kind of selection process results in an all or mostly male speaker lineup? Is it true that all the best speakers just happen to white men, or are there other qualified speakers who are getting passed over? No one thinks these conferences are deliberately signing up only men, but they do think that all-male lineups are a sign of not trying very hard to get the best speakers. One solution is for men to publicly pledge only to participate in panels that have at least one woman on them, as Rebecca Rosen proposed in The Atlantic last week."

Orion Home Loans is a mortgage brokerage that caters to it's loan officers (employees/independent contractors) by providing them with the tools, relationships and resources they need in order to close loans. The owner and primary Loan Officer, Jason van den Brand (me), is located in San Francisco, California.
While most mortgage brokerages are B2C (Business to Consumer), creating their companies around marketing directly to the consumer, Orion Home Loans is primarily interested in B2B (Business to Business), marketing directly to Loan Originators (self-employed) to attract and recruit them to our platform. These Loan Originators are self-sufficient and do not need training, are sales stars, have their own book of business, and receive referrals constantly.
Our loan officers need a site their clients can visit to earn trust and confirm legitimacy. This is our first official website.
The main goal of the site is to convince potential and existing clients and LO's that they should work with us because we are reputable, clean-cut and easy to work with.
There are two targets: Clients (Borrower's, Purchaser's, Refinancer's, etc.) and Loan Officers (the recruitment of)
Loan Officers: Tech-savvy sales stars that are money-hungry individuals but put ethics over all other rewards. They do the right thing. Age range varies though we've found that the 25-40 age range is typical. They are well connected in the industry, have many contacts and their own book of business. Time is typically their most valuable currency. Entrepreneurial.
Our Loan Originator's Clients: First-time homebuyers, Second-home or Investment-property buyers, Refinancer's, Commercial Real Estate Gurus, friends and family members. In terms of wealth, their clients are anywhere from "just-getting-by" to "which lear jet should I buy?" It all depends on their network. The Loan Originators are the center of the hub for the following people in each transaction: Title and Escrow Agents, Appraisers, Real Estate Agents, Loan Processors, the Borrower/Client, and the Bank (which includes Wholesale Reps, Underwriters, Funders), all of which will visit the site.
All persons listed above are considered to have above-average internet-based computer skills.
The deliverables for this contest are as follows (in well-organized PSDs):
-I would like to see treatments for h1, h2, h3, and list elements so that I have a system I can work with (a style guide)
Technical Requirements:
-I do NOT expect you to deliver code (HTML, CSS, and Javascript. But your design should be able to be implemented using HTML, CSS and Javascript (leaving hero areas that can be Flash elements later is OK)
-Fixed-width (fluid layout not needed)
Style Guidelines:
-no nonsense
Color Palettes I like:
Go to this site to see our sitemap: NOTE: this is only a 3-page design

GM is no stranger to tossing around alphanumeric nomenclature for its performance machinery. A perfect example is the LS1. Not many Vette owners are aware of the fact that the LS1 designation was first applied to a 1969 335hp 427 big-block long before it appeared as an all-aluminum 346. Most Vette enthusiasts are, however, aware that the '92-'96 LT1 small-block was named after the high-revving LT-1 from the early '70s. Note that while the two are differentiated by the use of a hyphen for the original model, GM was obviously playing the nostalgia card. Monikers aside, the real question concerns just how well the later LT1 compared with the original item. Did it really live up to its legendary muscle-car namesake?
Time and technology obviously march on, but the performance world was a much different place in 1992 than it was back in 1970. After enjoying essentially free reign during the '60s, performance took a nosedive in the mid '70s, thanks to ever-tightening emissions regulations. To meet the new standards, Chevy first cut compression ratios, then cam timing and carburetion-basically, everything a motor needs to make power. What started out as a high-compression, solid-lifter 350 rated at 370 hp in 1970 was reduced to a low-compression, hydraulic-lifter 350 rated as low as 205 hp (the "performance" L82) by 1975. Some of the difference in perceived performance can be attributed to the adoption of net (SAE) power ratings by 1972. The net rating provided more-accurate power numbers based on the engine as it was run in the car, with full accessories and the factory tune. The previous gross rating came with the motor strapped to the dyno, sans accessories and run in optimized tune. Thus, the 370-gross-hp rating of the 1970 LT-1 would be in the neighborhood of 300 net hp, right on par with the modern LT1.
The differences between the LT two small-blocks are numerous and significant. The LT1 offered a sophisticated reverse-flow cooling system, modern electronic fuel injection, and aluminum heads, compared with the 780 Holley four-barrel and cast-iron Fuelie heads on the original. The newer heads also out-flowed the originals heads by 10-15 cfm, despite running smaller valve sizes (1.94/1.50 vs. 2.02/1.60). The LT-1 did offer a higher static compression ratio (11.0:1 vs. 10.4:1), forged pistons, and a solid cam with wilder timing (0.459/0.485-inch lift and 242/254-degree duration, compared with the 0.450/0.460-inch lift and 202/207-degree duration of the injected mill). Both cams shared the same 116-degree lobe separation angle, but the hydraulic roller profile of the newer unit offered reduced friction and likely increased ramp rates, which improved average power production despite the mild duration specs.
The dual-plane, high-rise intake manifold used on the original LT-1 has proven to be a powerful design, but the LT1's short-runner EFI intake is likely just as effective. It is, after all, partly responsible for taking the small-block 350 from 245 hp in L98 guise to a solid 300 hp. Compared back-to-back, the LT1 intake would lose out to the LT-1 unit in lower- and medium-rpm ranges, but it would likely make similar, if not slightly more, peak power. The runner length in the LT1 is quite short and tuned for maximum effectiveness at higher engine speeds, this despite a relatively small cross-sectional area. In terms of driveability, fuel mileage, and reduced emissions, the modern LT1 has it all over the original.
Engine specs are all well and good, but the word "specs" sounds too much like speculation. To truly compare the '70 LT-1 to the '96 LT1, we had to run them against one another on the engine dyno. Obtaining a low-mileage LT1 was no problem, as our boys at Westech had several (of various years) just begging to be dyno tested. Testing the vintage LT-1 was another story, as this meant building one using factory specs. The boys from L&R Automotive and Demon Engines came to the rescue, as did a number other suppliers.
Demon Engines supplied an 11.0:1-compression short-block consisting of a combination of a forged crank and rods from Pro Comp, along with a set of forged aluminum pistons from Probe Racing. These were used in conjunction with a set of 492 Fuelie heads featuring 64cc combustion chambers to produce the desired compression ratio. The 492 heads came from L&R Automotive and were treated to set of 2.02/1.60 valves from Pro Comp, along with minor surfacing and a factory-style valve job. We wanted the heads to represent what would have come from the factory back in 1970. They were treated to a set of valvesprings from Comp Cams, to ensure we could safely rev the motor to 6,000 rpm.
Our reproduction LT-1 solid cam and lifters came from Elgin. We also sourced an original LT-1 aluminum high-rise intake, but topped the dual-plane manifold with a Holley 750 HP carburetor in lieu of an original (and very expensive) or reproduction 780 Holley. Both the LT-1 and LT1 were run with 13/4-inch headers, and both were optimized in terms of air/fuel and timing. The EFI LT1 was run with a FAST management system, while jetting and distributor advance took care of tuning on the LT-1. The LT1 was run with the factory water pump (meaning a slight drop in power from the parasitic loses associated with driving the pump), while the LT-1 could be run with an electric unit. Neither motor was run with an air filter of any kind.
Run on the engine dyno, the LT1 produced 350 hp at 5,700 rpm and 379 lb-ft of torque eat 3,800 rpm. This compares favorably with the factory rating of 300 hp and 340 lb-ft. Torque production exceeded 350 lb-ft from 2,600 rpm to 5,100 rpm, while the horsepower curve flattened out past 5,000 rpm. Despite a factory (gross) rating of 370 hp, the LT-1 produced almost exactly the same peak power as the LT1, with a peak of 353 hp at 5,600 rpm. In the torque department, the '70 LT-1 offered 292 lb-ft at 4,100 rpm, bettering the LT1 by as much as 13 lb-ft. Torque production from the LT-1 exceeded 350 lb-ft all the way up to 5,300 rpm, but like the LT1, power output from the LT-1 fell flat past 5,000 rpm. Given the wilder cam timing, this seems unusual, but it's hard to argue with the results of direct, back-to-back testing. Despite the sizable differences in rated output and more than 20 years of technology, the two LT small-blocks are more alike than different, at least in terms of power production. From the results of this test, it's obvious that the later LT1 carried on the tradition of performance offered by the original and can proudly wear the name.
Despite the short runners used in the LT1 EFI intake, the late-model motor offered more low-speed torque than the '70 version. Some of this is due to the dramatic difference in cam timing, as the milder hydraulic roller in the LT1 no doubt improved low-speed (below 3,300 rpm) torque production. From 3,500 rpm to 6,000 rpm, the original LT-1 offered slightly more power. The peak hp numbers were nearly identical, with the original version pumping out 353 hp, and the later mill making an even 350 hp. In the torque department, the '70 LT-1 produced 392 lb-ft at 4,100 rpm, compared with 379 lb-ft at 3,800 rpm for the LT1. In the midrange, the high-compression LT-1 offered as much as 13 extra lb-ft, but the difference was just 2 hp at 6,000 rpm.

Key technology from DLR is on its way to the market
On 20 August 2009, the solar thermal experimental and demonstration power plant in Jülich (Solarthermisches Versuchs- und Demonstrationskraftwerk Jülich; STJ) was officially handed over to its future operator, the Jülich Department of Works, by the general contractor, Kraftanlagen München. The technology for the core of the facility, the receiver, was developed and patented by the German Aerospace Center (Deutsches Zentrum für Luft- und Raumfahrt; DLR). DLR, together with the Jülich Solar Institute, provided scientific guidance and support for the planning, design and operation of the power plant. This collaboration will continue throughout the on-going operation, for the purpose of joint development of the technology.
The solar tower power plant was handed over to the Jülich Department of Works in the presence of the German Federal Minister for the Environment, Sigmar Gabriel, North Rhine-Westphalia's Minister for Economic Affairs, Christa Thoben, and the Parliamentary State Secretary to the Federal Ministry of Education and Research, Thomas Rachel.
2,153 movable mirrors (heliostats) with a total area of almost 18,000 square metres are arranged over an area of around eight hectares. They follow the path of the Sun and concentrate the solar radiation on a receiver that is around 22 square metres in size, installed at the top of a 60-metre tower. The receiver is made of porous ceramic elements through which incoming ambient air flows. In passing through the receiver, the air is heated to around 700 degrees Celsius and this heat is delivered to the water-steam cycle in a heat recovery boiler. The steam generated there drives a turbine, which produces power via a generator. The power plant will supply 1.5 megawatts when operated at its rated capacity. A heat storage module that extends across two stories of the tower is integrated into the plant. This heat storage module contains ceramic filling material through which hot air flows and which can thus be heated. When discharging, the process works in reverse: the heat storage module releases its energy so that power can also be produced when clouds pass overhead.
Now, the Jülich solar power plant can be used to demonstrate for the first time the technology for a solar tower power plant that was developed in Germany as a complete system. "The new facility provides a unique opportunity to further develop the technology in order to make it ready for a market launch through practical experience, and to further cement DLR's role as a leading international developer of solar thermal power plant technologies," said Professor Hans Müller-Steinhagen, head of DLR's Institute for Technical Thermodynamics, at the celebratory handover. Professor Müller-Steinhagen added: "Of course, the Sun does not shine as often in Jülich as in North Africa, but for an experimental power plant in which the technology is to be further developed, having good connections to the research institutes is more important than continuous operation." The solar thermal power plant in Jülich thus serves as a reference for future commercial power plants in southern Europe and North Africa, which will play a major role in the desert power project DESERTEC. The technology and the knowledge obtained by the researchers in Jülich will be used in sunny regions of the world, where solar thermal power plants have the greatest potential.
In addition to its role as licensor for the receiver technology, DLR was also involved in the design of the heliostat field and the receiver and in qualifying individual components within the system. Furthermore, DLR computer simulations led to the development of operating concepts and to the calculation of the annual yield of the overall facility that are important for assessing efficiency. In this regard, DLR can rely on the many years of experience gained from its development work and the test operation of solar thermal facilities at the Plataforma Solar de Almería in southern Spain.
One storey of the tower to be used for experiments
Inside the tower of the solar power plant, DLR and its partners will set up a research platform on one storey that is at around half the height of the tower. The researchers will be able to place experiments behind a three-by-seven metre opening onto which the power plant's heliostats can be focussed. Included among the planned activities are tests for new receivers and experiments on the thermochemical manufacture of hydrogen using solar energy.
The project will be supported by a research programme spanning several years which, as well as providing scientific support for the operation of the power plant, will in particular develop methods for optimising operation, assuring quality and developing the technology in order to further improve the competitiveness of the facilities. For example, a fully dynamic computer model of the facility will be developed which is later expected to enable the real-time optimisation of operations supported by the model. The project was sponsored by the German Federal Ministry for the Environment, Nature Conservation and Nuclear Safety (Bundesministerium für Umwelt, Naturschutz und Reaktorsicherheit; BMU), the Ministry of Economic Affairs and Energy of the State of North Rhine-Westphalia (Ministerium für Wirtschaft, Mittelstand und Energie des Landes Nordrhein-Westfalen; MWME NRW) and the Bavarian State Ministry for Economic Affairs, Infrastructure, Traffic and Technology (Bayerischen Staatsministerium für Wirtschaft, Infrastruktur, Verkehr und Technologie; STMWIVT).

1 2/3 cup flour
2/3 cup sugar
¾ cup shredded Granny Smith apple (skin on)
2 eggs, at room temperature
5 tablespoons butter, at room temperature
3 tablespoons key lime juice*
2 tablespoons milk
1 tablespoon key lime zest
1 teaspoon baking powder
½ teaspoon baking soda
½ teaspoon salt
Preheat oven to 350. Grease and flour or spray (with baking spray with flour) 1 9x5x3 loaf pan. In a medium mixing bowl, combine sugar, zest, lime juice, egg and butter until fluffy. Add the milk and apple, mix until thoroughly incorporated. Add flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Mix thoroughly. The batter will be lumpy from the apple. Pour into prepared loaf pan. Bake 30-45** minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Cool in pan about 5 minutes then invert to a wire rack. Slice and serve when cooled to your liking.
*"regular" lime juce and zest would work just as well.
**It really depends on how moist your apple is, the juicer the apple, the longer it will take the bake. If it takes a really long time (over 45 minutes) or starts to get really brown on the edges while still raw in the middle, drop the temperature down to 300 and continue to bake.
