Radio & Space Plasma Physics Group
The Radio and Space Plasma Physics Group is at the forefront of research into the interaction of planetary environments with the solar wind. The most spectacular evidence of this interaction are the aurora which occur in the regions surrounding both the north and south magnetic poles.
To understand these complex interactions, information from a broad range of theoretical and experimental studies is required and the group is active in many national and international collaborations. Experimental studies with spacecraft and ground based facilities are being carried out.
The group builds and operates ground based radar facilities including the SPEAR radar constructed on Svalbard and seven SuperDARN radars, including the two UK CUTLASS radars in Iceland and Finland. (The CUTLASS radar in Finland is shown opposite.)

Colorado Cold Cases: volunteers executed at VFW club
Robert "Curly" Culberth was an Army veteran who served overseas during World War II.
After serving his country Curly and his 51-year-old wife Darlene dedicated much of their lives to serving the needs of the Veterans of Foreign Wars club.
Curly, 70, had served in regional and national positions and he and his wife had often volunteered at VFW clubs wherever they lived. When they lived in Chaffee County, they had volunteered at the Buena Vista VFW.
After working as a mechanic most of his adult life in the mountains, Curly retired in 1989 and the couple moved back to the Eastern Plains where they both grew up.
On Aug. 1, 1991, the couple was where they often had been, at the Lamar VFW club.
They had volunteered to work there like countless other times.
This time it was because the manager resigned about a month earlier. The Culberths were filling in until a new manager was assigned.
The couple arrived shortly after 1 p.m. that Thursday afternoon.
At 1:41 p.m., the alarm system at the VFW was disabled.

This video, Full Circle made by Klezinski Films, is absolutely incredible. It seamlessly shows people jumping rope from the rope's POV. What's impressive is that the camera is always focused on the person swinging the rope, making the effect even more powerful.
And as the rope swings, the person changes. Swing, new person, swing, new person. If you keep watching this video your brain will ooze out of your eyes. Or something like that. Whatever. Watch it anyway, it's brilliant. Crazy, but brilliant. [Klezinski via Kottke]

Awesome self-tanner!! from San Francisco, CA Verified Purchaser
I just got Sun Labs Medium yesterday and used it for the first time last night all over my body. Sun Labs Medium was relatively easy to apply (although I washed my hands throughout the application process to avoid staining them). I was so happy with the results that I used it on my face when I woke up this morn. I just went into the bathroom at work and was like, 'I look tan!!' I've been avoiding the sun for the past three years, so it's the first time I've seen myself tan in a long time, and I love it!! It is a nice, golden color, too--exactly the way my skin looks when it's really tan. Sun Labs Medium smell is nice when you put it on, but it does fade into that self-tanner smell after awhile. That and the price are the only drawbacks--well worth it in my opinion. Review posted 3/12/2012.

Very natural looking tan. from Toronto, ON Verified Purchaser
The tan I got was very close to my natural color of a tan. Doesn't have the usual self-tanner scent - smells like almonds. I apply Sun Labs Medium every other day to maintain the color. Stains hands a lot even if you wash them immediately after and will stain your bedding as well (but washes away without a trace on white sheets). Palms of your hands return to normal color by the afternoon the next day. One bottle of Sun Labs Medium lasts for approximately 2-3 weeks with every other day application on a petite body. Review posted 6/16/2012.

This is my all time favorite self tanner by MALGRIFFIN from BRANTFORD, ON
This is the first Sun Labs Medium self tanner I have ever tried. I've been using it for about 3 years now and I've tried quite a few others including st tropez, fake bake and others and this is by far my favorite and everything else I have tried was just a huge let down compared to this. For me Sun Labs Medium is the longest lasting one, basically fool proof to apply it's so easy and does not streak. Sun Labs Medium is the only one I've found that will make me dark enough, and I just love it. Nothing has beat Sun Labs Medium for me yet. Review posted 7/24/2012.

great tan with self tanning micro mist, easy to do at home NS from coral gables, FL Verified PurchaserI will be placing another order for Sun Labs Medium, I like the color that it gives my skin and it lasts over a week, comes off very naturally. Review posted 6/6/2012.

Very believable color - without streaks or funny smell! from Glastonbury, CT Verified Purchaser
Sun Labs Medium is the best self tanner I ever used. The color looks totally natural - brown, not the orange look I've had from virtually every other tanner. The brown color guide helps a lot, so there is not streaking whatsoever. My best advice would be to keep washing your hands frequently as you apply the tanner. The first time I used Sun Labs Medium, I didn't wash my hands until the end and it took me literally ten minutes to get all the rubbed in color off my hands. I also needed to use a pumice. But the good news is my palms had no hint of color on them in the morning, so the pumice idea is actually great. Review posted 6/25/2012.

Best Sun Tanner Ever from Overland Park, KS Verified Purchaser
I love this Sun Labs Medium sun tanner. It's great to mix with the lotion of your choice. It has a bronzer in it as well as a tanner, so you can see where it is and isn't as you're applying it. Sun Labs Medium's very dark, so it lasts a long time, too. Review posted 10/10/2012.

The worst part was the coffee!
The organised trips were good value and interesting. Berlin Rocks!

|Which album will accompany the archive release of Venus and Mars?
We don't know, as we have no inside information to settle this matter, we just need to stay calm and wait for the official word.
Meanwhile, the user etcetera over at Steve Hoffman's Music Corner forum has some great ideas for the DVDs which should accompany each release.
Venus and Mars:
* Juniors Farm Top Of The Pops
* Nashville Studio Stuff
* Mardi Gras Sequence
* New Orleans Into The Studio TV stuff
* Venus and Mars TV Advert
* Letting Go live UK
Red Rose Speedway: 2 DVDs
* James Paul McCartney Show , including bonuses (The Long and Winding road live, Big Barn Bed Version 2, Outtakes of Paul playing guitar with Linda snapping)
* My Love video Clip
* My Love Top of the Pops (recently found in the BBC Lagos, Nigeria Archive)
* Hi Hi Hi video
* C moon Video
* Live tracks and rehearsals from the 1973 UK Tour
We might add that a second Venus and Mars DVD could easily be made from the November 13, 1975 Wings concert at the Myer Music Bowl in Melbourne.

Here comes the Will Smith publicity machine
Already?That really seemed to come fast. It's May. We're 3 weeks out (May 25) from the release of Men In Black 3. Which means it's officially Will Smith selling season. He was joined by Tommy Lee Jones and Josh Brolin today at a photo call for the movie in Beverly Hills. I can't believe he's not taking over Independence Day weekend. Full Story
Will Smith in your face
Most of you will, at some point today, have Men In Black 3 thrown in your face after you leave my blog. Or, perhaps you'd already had it thrown in your face before you visited my blog. That was their intention. Sony announced this morning that they're promoting the MIB3 trailer across ALL its platforms. Full Story

To ensure we never miss a moment, it's entirely plausible that one day cameras will just continuously record video, instead of snapping individual shots. But when all you want is a single photo, pouring through hundreds of frames in a clip for that perfect shot is overly tedious. So researchers have come up with a better approach to automatically analysing videos and selecting only the best candid portraits.
Since there's no scientific formula for determining what constitutes an ideal portrait, researchers at the University of Washington, working with engineers from Adobe, first started with human test subjects rating frames from multiple videos based on the aesthetics of the image. Their results were then used to create a computer model that weighed several different features to determine if the subject's face, in a given frame, represented an ideal portrait of that moment. Previous techniques took a simpler approach by omitting frames in a video where the subject blinked, was in motion, or even just smiling, which still resulted in selections that looked like the awkward in-between faces seen in a paused video.
The research actually seems like a solution to a problem that doesn't quite exist yet, but immediate applications include improving the thumbnail selection process for video sites like YouTube, or automatically grabbing better shots of a suspect's face in security camera footage.

At delivery the dealer offered a "maintenance program" that would cover routine maint. after the 50 k mile free coverage to 100k miles. They asked $2300. What has your experience been about out of pocket costs for maintenance issues? This is not the extended warranty (that was$4500) The dealer service advisor quoted ~$350 for spark plug change at 60k, Oil& Filter @ $130 (X3), cabin filter change $200.

It's a bathroom, a planter, and a fertilizer all rolled into one.
While working on a class project, Eddie Gandelman wondered if the public restroom could be made a more comfortable, welcoming space.
"I think the urinal in public restrooms is one of the worst designed things," says Gandelman, a 22-year-old design student at the University of Cincinnati. He sought to brighten the space by adding plants. Then the light-bulb went off. "I was looking at my sketches and thought, 'Hey, that would be kind of cool if you could water the plants with your pee,'" Gandelman recalls of his ah-ha moment last spring. "I researched it and found that it could work."
The result is When Nature Calls, a urinal that filters the sodium and acidity from urine via a three-step process involving activated charcoal, crushed limestone and greensand, then uses the end product to water plants.
It quickly attracted attention. Stories appeared last summer on popular technology and design sites and as far afield as the U.K., highlighting the concept's simple ingenuity and conservation of water and the environment. Feeling left out, many women asked Gandelman about a toilet version (not yet).
The concept of separating solid waste from liquid waste to use either or both as fertilizer is not new. Some 135,000 urine-diversion toilets are used in Sweden, where some of the collected urine is passed on to farmers. Some farmers in developing regions of China and other countries do the same.
But the concept has never been brought to the urinal, and the filtering and plant watering have never been so immediate – or timely. In recent weeks, Gandelman has been fielding calls from architects looking to incorporate his idea into their latest sustainable building designs.
Yet no prototype has been built; When Nature Calls exists only on paper. Gandelman recently spoke with an engineer and learned that the concept, as currently designed, would be very costly and difficult to develop. "My next step may be finding the right people with the right skills to take it to the next level," he says.
A writer at Trend Hunter suggests restaurants use them to grow fruit and vegetables, cutting costs and carbon emissions simultaneously. Another possibility is installing the urinals in a public restroom in a city park. But rather than water plants directly attached to the urinal itself, as in the rendering, the filtered urine could be directed outside, to water, say, a flower bed.
"That would be a good and logical next step for it to go," says Gandelman, who expects to graduate next month. "The plants could have a sign: 'This is being watered by urine.'"
Hopefully such a sign wouldn't inspire tipsy, full-bladdered bypassers to contribute to the cause.

TEHRAN, Jan. 17 (UPI) -- Tehran can escape international sanctions pressure by moving away from a budget dependent on petrodollars, the Iranian president said.
Australian Foreign Minister Bob Carr announced last week his country was the latest to target the energy, financial, trade and transportation sectors in Iran with new sanctions. Western allies have put economic pressure on Iran out of concern for its nuclear ambitions, which Tehran says are peaceful.
Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad said one way to escape sanctions pressure was to stop depending on oil revenue in the country's budget.
"We should once and for all decide to eliminate petrodollars in the spending budget," he was quoted by the Platts news service as saying.
The president, entering the last few months of his final term in office, said the government could use the mining sector, among others, to generate more income. The Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries, in its monthly report for January, stated that Iran was among member states that saw oil production declines.
Ahmadinejad has come under pressure by Iranian lawmakers frustrated with his economic policies. The national currency, the rial, collapsed last year under sanctions pressure.
Iran's state-funded broadcaster Press TV this week reported that Economic Minister Shamseddin Hosseini has decided to phase out the U.S. dollar and the euro for its foreign trade transactions.

Simple-to-Understand Four-Star Rating System Gives Consumers New Tool, Lays Foundation for Robust Scoring System
SACRAMENTO, Calif. — California consumers can now get performance ratings on the vast majority of health insurance plans offered through Covered California™. The state health insurance exchange recently added a quality rating system (QRS) to its website to aid consumers in their selection of plans.
The QRS gives an easy-to-understand rating of one to four stars, with four stars being the highest score. The system is in place well ahead of the 2016 federal mandate and will be improved over the next two years as the exchange gets more comprehensive performance ratings for plans.
"After several months of open and constructive debate with consumer advocates, health plans and stakeholders, Covered California is now among the first exchanges in the nation to offer its consumers a quality rating system," said Covered California Executive Director Peter V. Lee.
Many states, along with the federal exchange, are awaiting federal guidelines for establishing a rating system, but Covered California wanted to give existing scoring information beginning in 2014.
"We want to give consumers all the available tools to help them assess and choose plans in their regions,"
Lee said. "We are proud of the ratings in each of the exchange plans and recognize this is a preliminary look at exchange health plans."
The ratings are based on reported experiences of members. Each health insurance plan is compared with results for health insurance plans across the western United States region.
A four-star plan means a plan placed in the top 25 percent of all rated plans. Three stars are given for those that landed in the 50- to 75-percent band, while a two-star plan means it scored in the 25- to 50-percent band of all plans. One star is given for those plans scoring in the bottom 25 percent.
Consumers can get QRS scores in their regions by visiting: https://www.CoveredCA.com/hbex/insurance-companies/qrs.html.
The scores, from the nationally recognized Consumer Assessment of Healthcare Providers and Systems (CAHPS), asks plan members about access to care, including getting doctor appointments, tests and treatments; customer service; and medical care.
Consumers may access the quality ratings when they visit www.CoveredCA.com and browse health insurance plan options. The scores are displayed on the summary for each plan.
Covered California anticipates expanding its rating system to integrate the national standards when they are available, adding information on hospital, medical group and physician quality. The clinical performance scores will be based on claims data and patient records, in addition to member surveys about exchange plan services starting in 2014.
"These scores are just the beginning of a robust reporting and evaluation system planned for 2016," said Lee.
About Covered California
Covered California is the state's marketplace for the federal Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act. Covered California, in partnership with the California Department of Health Care Services, was charged with creating a new health insurance marketplace in which individuals and small businesses can get access to affordable health insurance plans. With coverage starting in 2014, Covered California helps individuals determine whether they are eligible for premium assistance that is available on a sliding-scale basis to reduce insurance costs or whether they are eligible for low-cost or no-cost Medi-Cal. Consumers can then compare health insurance plans and choose the plan that works best for their health needs and budget. Small businesses can purchase competitively priced health insurance plans and offer their employees the ability to choose from an array of plans and may qualify for federal tax credits.
Covered California is an independent part of the state government whose job is to make the new market work for California's consumers. It is overseen by a five-member board appointed by the Governor and the Legislature. For more information on Covered California, please visit www.CoveredCA.com.

Brilliant bikes, well photographed SVP
CR&S Motorcycles
are you sure this shouldn't be in WTF?
there is NO THROTTLE or BRAKE on that "bike"
Well to each his own. I think it looks like a pile-up of motorcycle parts. not very elegant.
One of the ugliest bikes I ever saw.Seriously.
and I thought maybe the 6 Brown Dogs were impairing my vision
both of those bikes are dead sexy, but im a minimalist... i like the first alott, the second abviously isnt finished, but its still some beautiful parts... i appreciate that
I am not sure about the first post, I like the minimalist approach, but it is dizzying in what is going on. It did remind me of the Confederate Hellcat, which I always liked for the unique look...
That first bike, someone has but in a shit load of work and come up with a very messy result. Way too much going on. The second one I like.
.........Sorry if I didn't get the message across - I started this thread with a view to get people to post good quality pictures of bikes they think are eye candy - obviously such things are very subjective, so with respect - less opinion & more pictures - not your bike unless it is outstanding - lets see the best you can find !
Eye candy - what do you call bike porn ?
I think those bikes look cool.
Wow. I wouldn't mind getting that first bike... for free from a contest so I could trade it in for something else.
Here's a pornstar
Beautiful, I wouldn't mind that or one of those Egli Vincents. With an electric starter of course.
Electric leg, + 4valve head. Coming soon...
Fast? You betcha!
Bootlace - the Irving Vincent is magnificent - pics saved to my 'cool bikes' folder - hope thats OK?
Yeah. No worries. Like to see it in action?

Some games are works of wonder and beauty, and playing them reaffirms our humanity. When life is hard and stressful, those games make us forget our worries and allow us to relax, giving us a rejuvenating boost that allows us to face another day.
These are not those games. These games make our urge to kill rise just a little bit each time until we prove critics right about video games causing violence by hunting down the level designer and throttling him. Instead, though, we have to stifle those murderous urges, especially since we're more likely to take them out on our poor controller.
Today I'm chronicling eight games that made us want to destroy our controllers, from the old-school difficulty of the NES all the way to the modern era. The mere mention of these games, and certain levels within, will send gaming veterans into fits of PTSD. For every pleasant gaming memory, there is also one of these:

Soccer star to march Sunday, return in the fall
Injury in sophomore year gives Sam Ocel another shot at a title
F. Scott Fitzgerald wrote that "There are no second acts in American lives."
Brandeis senior Sam Ocel is out to prove the author wrong, at least when it comes to his senior year on the Judges' men's soccer team.
Ocel was the 2012 University Athletic Association Men's Soccer Player of the Year, a National Soccer Coaches Association of America third-team All-American and Scholar All-American, and the Harry, Joseph and Ida Stein Award winner as Brandeis' top male athlete for 2012-13. He led the Judges and the UAA in scoring, notching nine game-winning goals including in the team's final three victories of the season.
But even though he will be marching with the Class of 2013 at commencement, he will be back for a second act -- another season. Ocel suffered a torn meniscus in his knee during the summer before his sophomore year, sidelining him from August until mid-winter that year, so throwing his cap in the air doesn't mean the end of his playing career. He still has one season of athletic eligibility left.
Ocel, who has his sights set on dental school when he leaves Brandeis, preserved his eligibility by not enrolling in spring semester 2013 classes, instead choosing intern and volunteer opportunities that both helped him prepare for the future and were personally satisfying.
In addition to interning in an endodontic office and studying intensely for his dental school entrance exam, Ocel returned to Waltham frequently as a volunteer. He worked with the Junior Brandeis Achievers after-school program at the nearby Stanley Elementary School, hung out with his buddy Jesse, who he met through a Friend-to-Friend program and spent time with the Jewish Big Brother/Big Sister program. He was so enamored with the JBBBS program, he not only volunteered but got involved in recruiting for it.
"Bringing more people into the program is very important," Ocel said. "It's been so rewarding for me, but there are so many kids who need Big Brothers and Big Sisters. I really want to get more Brandeis student-athletes involved."
He will continue the internship this summer and return in the fall with renewed motivation. Like every student-athlete at Brandeis, he hungers for an outright UAA crown and another shot at an NCAA championship. Ocel will have a new motivating factor too -- his younger brother, Josh, who is a central midfielder and incoming member of the Class of 2017.
The two have been competitive with each other for as long as Ocel can remember, and he looks forward to the practices that split into upper- versus under-classmen. His parents are excited to see the brothers working together on the field as well.
"We've never played together," Sam said. "It was one of the bigger factors in my wanting to come back, and in his wanting to come to Brandeis. It's really exciting.
"I love representing the university and my teammates, and I can't wait to do it one more time."
Ocel delivered the game-winning goal in the Judges' final three victories last fall. In a 1-0 win over NYU to end the regular season, he helped the Judges to a share of their first-ever UAA crown. The next week, he scored both goals in a 2-0 win over Baruch College in the opening round of the NCAA Division III tournament on Gordon Field.
The next night, Ocel notched the most dramatic score of the season. He tallied with 29.4 seconds left in regulation of the second-round tournament game against Vassar College to give the Judges a 1-0 win. The teams raced up and down the field in the final minutes of regulation before Lee Russo sent a perfect cross that his classmate flicked in with his head.
It's a goal that Ocel barely remembers. "After back-to-back games, I just remember being exhausted," Ocel said. "I knew we were going to score. I didn't know how, I didn't know if it was going to be me, but I knew we needed to score. Because I didn't know if I could have lasted in overtime."
The Judges lost in the next round, the Sweet 16, to the eventual Final Four squad of Williams College, finishing the season with an 18-3-1 record and their best campaign since 1985.
"It was an awesome season and an awesome way to finish with my best friends," Ocel recalled wistfully, speaking of teammates and classmates Joe Eisenbies, Blake Minchoff and Russo, all of whom will be in the academic procession on Sunday.

Since then, I've been determined to figre out how to boil this small bit of information, and show you just how much this can help your layer masking and isolating backgrounds, especially in the studio scene and landscape photography. I finally decided to simply do what I do best - record a gimp video tutorial using the method that I discovered, and share it with everyone. Click here for the gimp video tutorial.

I'm confused about this one...didn't we just get a Jodo Kast last year?
WOOO HOOO. Found Jodo Kast at my local K-Mart last night. There were about 9 or so of them. He was $8.99, which isn't bad because figures at regularly $8.49 or so at that store. I didn't open him yet, I had to wrap birthday presents last night...Interesting that there's nothing packed inside the bubble, as in no advertisements for other figures etc. He comes with his helmet, jetpack, etc.Happy hunting!
Nice score! Can you post the UPC when you have a chance or PM me with it? My Kmart will probably let it sit in the stock room for a year.

In a strange and slightly convoluted way, the second album by The Men relies on its weaker moments to give its stronger colleagues the pedestal they warrant. It's not simply a case of making them look good by contrast, either – it's a bit more complicated than that. Basically, Leave Home finds the Brooklyn four-piece excelling in one mode – the crashing, detuned and sociopathic nexus of noise and hardcore – and blowing hot and cold in others. Logically, this should suggest they'd have been better off turning in a full stint of genuflection at the altar of Greg Ginn and Michael Gira.
There are, however, an unmanageable amount of bands doing much the same at the moment: Pissed Jeans, Årabrot, Slices, FNU Ronnies, some British battery lickers like Drunk In Hell and Diet Pills. Why would anyone pick out a group with a goadingly blank Moebius-strip-of-irony name like 'The Men'? (Especially when you, a box-ticking fucking PARAGON of political more or less correctness, are already wracked with conflict about the fact that one of your favourite recent strands of music is overwhelmingly a vehicle for white males to fly-tip their mystery anger.) Well, that's where the other bits come in. They might not be to everyone's taste, in some cases because they're a bit meandering and underdeveloped, but they let the distracted dabblers know that The Men aren't just another mob of panelbeating urbane sludge thugs. It also helps that this album is on the Sacred Bones label, which has ample indie-rock kudos and gets reviews in first-page-of-Google places like this website.
Leave Home, which came out about five months ago in the States, has edged the band to the point where they threaten to attain the global megastardom of, oh, No Age. This tells you little about the album's ambitions, or lack thereof. 'If You Leave…', the opening song, begins with three minutes of pointedly aimless jotter doodles in Thurston Moore-ish tunings, before some galloping psychedelic punk breaks up the navel-gazing. Even then, there's a toenail in the cocktail in the form of Nick Chiericozzi's vocals, which sound like Layne Staley. In roughly the last half hour of his life. The longest song on the disc, it feels vaguely like an act of self-sabotage.
Towards the end, meanwhile, 'Shittin' With The Shah' is a reverb-heavy instrumental that builds up to a broadly agreeable sub-Comets On Fire crescendo without entirely justifying its presence. 'Night Landing', which follows it and concludes Leave Home, adds a drum machine to its pat Stoogean sprawl, but in a way that leaves you wondering if, having used three drummers across the previous seven songs, they simply couldn't locate another for the finale.
So, having established that the head and feet are meh to middling, let's talk about the bits in the album's torso. As Adrian Mole, would say, it's offally good. 'Think', which also came out on a gravely limited 7-inch, is a frothy keg of rage – guitar solos that have almost nothing to do with the rest of what's being played, a tip of the hat to modern powerviolence doyens like Mind Eraser, a clarinet because you didn't expect a clarinet (there really is one, though). The Ginn/Gira altar I mentioned in the first paragraph is approached for 'L.A.D.O.C.H.', which is an utter archetype of the form: Black Flaggish to the point where you think it's actually going to become a cover of their 'Nothing Left Inside', it degenerates into preposterous Swans-circa-1984 deathblows. "THE BRINGER OF EVERYTHING IS HERE TO STAY!" erupts Chris Hansell one final time, before coughing bathetically.
'()', rather than covering all of a Sigur Ros album in one song as you might expect, trades in destructive quasi-garage punk. Apart from the part where they allude to Spacemen 3's 'Revolution' ("it takes five seconds to decide…" intoned over opiated repetition), you could envisage it on one of the earlier Trail Of Dead albums, where it would be one of the noisiest moments. Something similar can be claimed for 'Bataille', which Sacred Bones understandably chose to toss out to bloggers before Leave Home's release, and which – in stark contrast to the Thurstonoodling earlier on – is like if Sonic Youth had ever managed to write a song with a hardcore backbone, but also the earworm quality of their setlist staples.
I mean, if you're on here reading this, there's a decent chance you like the rock band Sonic Youth and consider the previous a glowing appraisal. Rightly: 'Bataille's a great song. A whole album of it would feel kind of… a cop-out, though, even assuming they could consistently strike gold using that rough formula. Maybe it's better if The Men keep on jabbing haphazardly into flesh, in case hitting the vein too often leads to an O.D. And, with the knowledge that no review on here this week will feature a worse metaphor than that, understand that you won't end up playing this right through after long, but the gold parts of Leave Home are noiserock in excelsis.

The Most Electable Candidate
Filed Under (The HELL You Say!) by ROBERT RINGER / PERSONALLIBERTY.COM on 06-12-2011
UPI In South Carolina last week, Newt Gingrich admitted he "isn't the perfectcandidate" but is "a lot more conservative than Mitt Romney and a lot more electable than anybody else.
" Even after three years of thugocratic government, there are still many conservatives and libertarians who cannot bring themselves to believe that Barack Obama is anything more than a "big-spending liberal" who is simply misguided. It's true that some have finally thrown in the towel and sparingly use words like "socialist" and "socialism" to describe Obama and his policies, but terms like "communism" and "dictatorship" are uttered only by those whom the establishment considers extremists. Much to my fascination, most conservative media pundits continue to scratch their heads and insist that "Barack Obama is just in over his head" when talking about his "failed policies." The idea that he is actually trying to destroy the last vestiges of the free market and freedom in America is such a radical thought that their mainstream minds will not allow them to even consider it.
But, in the end, Obama's motives don't really matter. For the sake of argument, let's assume that he really is just a lazy, unqualified dunce who is totally devoid of leadership skills. Even if that were the case, the bottom line is the same, i.e., he has spent the first three years of his Presidency primarily focused on three tasks:
- Pushing Obamacare through Congress against the will of the American people.
- Piling on as many economy-killing regulations as possible.
- Getting re-elected, primarily by conjuring up hatred toward the rich.
Now, with elections less than a year away, BHO has shifted most of his efforts to task number three: getting re-elected. He has laid out his strategy for all to see, and it's clear that he intends to wage a vile campaign straight from the sewers of Chicago. Not the business-as-usual dirty tricks and lies that are par for the course in most political campaigns, but really slimy stuff that has its roots in the criminal world of community organizing.
What's so disconcerting about this is that Republicans (1) have fielded the worst group of candidates of my lifetime and (2) have a large number of very strong, highly principled, appealing party members who are not running. Ten who come to mind quickly are Paul Ryan, Chris Christie, Bobby Jindal, Jim DeMint, Mitch Daniels, Mike Pence, Sarah Palin, John Thune, Rand Paul and Marco Rubio (who instead will be anointed as the Vice Presidential candidate).
I believe that any of these people (yes, including Sarah Palin) could have beaten Obama and, once in office, done a good — even great — job of cutting the size of government, rolling back job-killing regulations, lowering taxes and getting the country back to its Constitutional foundation.
In South Carolina last week, Newt Gingrich admitted he "isn't the perfect candidate" but is "a lot more conservative than Mitt Romney and a lot more electable than anybody else." In their zeal to topple the Obama regime, Republicans have become obsessed with the idea of electability.
But their emphasis is misplaced. What they should be focused on is finding a candidate who not only has conservative principles but can be trusted to stick to those principles throughout the campaign and beyond, because the most principled candidate would be the most electable candidate.
Unfortunately, Republicans never seem to believe that. After all, it's only through the grace of Jimmy Carter that Ronald Reagan managed to win the Presidency in spite of the Republican establishment's unhappiness with his being the party's nominee. Republicans feel much more comfortable with names like Dole, Bush (1 & 2) and McCain.
As a result, it appears that it now may be down to Romney and Gingrich. Gingrich would be a great President if he governed according to (most of) what he's been saying on the campaign trail. But that's a huge if.
Remember, Obama still has the entire mainstream media not only supporting him, but blatantly lying to the public in an effort to continue the ruse that he is a thoughtful, self-critical, mainstream, patriotic American who is being thwarted by a mean-spirited Republican Congress. Nevermind that Democrats controlled the House and Senate through the first two years of his socialist policies, and that the Senate is still controlled by Democrats.
Obama increasingly may try to sound as though he's a moderate, but no one — neither on the right nor the left — seriously believes that. The reason nearly half of voters still rate him favorably is not because they believe he's a centrist. On the contrary, it's because they want more redistribution of wealth, and they realize that he is determined to make that happen.
That is why Republicans cannot win if they try to Romneyize or McCainize their positions. The conventional wisdom is wrong regarding this issue. Independents — who, as usual, will decide the 2012 election — will be much more inclined to vote for a highly principled candidate with whom they may disagree on a number of issues than for another phony conservative.
If there were any doubts about what the dirty Dems have in store for a RINO Republican nominee, they should have vanished after their early shot across Romney's bow: the "Mitt versus Mitt" ad that posits Romney's candidacy as "the story of two men trapped in one body."
Early on, I didn't believe that BHO and the Dems actually would try to win the 2012 election by pounding away at the income-inequality theme, because any fool knows that it has nothing to do with the economic problems the United States faces. If anything, focusing on this canard is the cause of the economy's death spiral, because it motivates politicians to increase taxes, increase regulations and increase government control over both people and the economy.
Interestingly, Pat Caddell and Doug Schoen, every Republican's two favorite Democrats, have been urging the Obamessiah to bow out of the 2012 race. Recently, they wrote: "He should abandon his candidacy for reelection in favor of a clear alternative, one capable not only of saving the Democratic Party, but, more important, of governing effectively and in a way that preserves the most important of the president's accomplishments. He should step aside for the one candidate who would become, by acclamation, the nominee of the Democratic Party: Secretary of State Hillary Clinton."
Yikes! The thought of Hillary back from the dead is enough to give conservatives chest pains. With Obama, there is no doubt about who the enemy is. But it would take several years for those smitten with the new-and-improved happy-face version of Hilla the Hun to come out of their stupor. By that time, she would have enacted every policy BHO wanted to foist on the American public — and then some. (Remember, Hillarycare preceded Obamacare by more than 15 years.)
As much as I hate to say it, given the alternatives, maybe we're better off with an unprincipled, flip-flopping Republican in the White House. I mean, it's not like we aren't used to it. Still, in all, it sure would be nice if someone with strong and consistent conservative convictions broke through the pack and won the Republican nomination — or ran as a third-party candidate.

A Post You Might Have Missed
I started a post many days ago, and just finished it and posted it, but it posted below 2 of my most recent posts instead of here at the top. It's called OUTCASTS, if you would like to read it. Meanwhile I have ANOTHER draft that I am trying to figure out how to make it show up at the top of all these posts instead of pages down, like the other one. Does anyone know how to do that?
If you find my print is too small, hold down the ctrl button on your keyboard, then click the left mouse button ONCE anywhere in the post, then roll your scrolling button on your mouse (if you have one) while holding down ctrl, and the font will get bigger or smaller for you! This works on most web pages, if you have trouble with small print.

I am excited to attend UW Tacoma because I have heard exceptional recommendations about the science faculty which is the program that I am majoring in. The professors require you to work hard and apply yourself and if you want a good grade you can't help but study and learn! Their science program is very strong so if you are looking for that major then your have many wonderful classes to chose from.
To find more tips for prospective students, what to do for fun and whether this school is great for a particular type of student read the 33 reviews for University of Washington-Tacoma Campus
Curious about something that isn't answered here? Feel free to ask University of Washington-Tacoma Campus a question
The campus is fairly noisy, as it is located smack-dab in downtown Tacoma. The expectations for student academics is much lower than at other UW branches, which is why many students who do not qualify for the Seattle campus end up here. It is a much more affordable option than UW-Seattle.Read More
The professors at UWT make an honest effort to do everything they can to help you succeed and it is obvious they dedicate hours of time to their students and classes. the UWT campus is in the heart of downtown Tacoma, an amazing location making the campus inviting with plenty of things to do in your downtime. The amazing friends I have made here make the college experience 10x better, with support from peers it is that much easier to succeed.Read More
The University of Washington Tacoma campus is a god sized campus in the middle of downtown Tacoma. The campus is well in touch with the surrounding community and provides many resources. The students and staff are kind and resourceful as well.Read More
The campuses are clean and well-kept. There aren't many choices or opportunities here as the majors offered are very limited. This college is a good choice if you plan to transfer to another university.Read More
Best urban 4-year college. Best Computer Science and Information Technology programs. Best school for adult students.Read More
Overall, I highly recommend UWT to transfer students and non-traditional students. Everyone is friendly, the campus is growing, and there are a lot of opportunities if only you search them out. The campus is small and feels connected.Read More
Small, intimate school. Academic challenge is substantial, but reachable. A great alternative to a larger college.Read More
This school is very substancial and you have to make sure to do all your reading and homework for the classes. They like pop quizes. I have learned a lot and enjoyed going her so far!Read More
The teachers are very approachable and helpful. However, the institution is a tad unorganized and makes registration errors/mistakes here and there, which can be very frustrating. These errors can usually be fixed after visiting the school or making a few calls. Other than that, I really like the school and I have only been attending for about two months.Read More
UW-Tacoma is an absolutely wonderful place to receive an education from because of the small class sizes and ability to be taught by a professor first hand. It is a smaller campus and relatively easy to get around, plus it is central to restaurants, close to the freeway and has an unbelievable amount of classes to choose from. UW-Tacoma deserves 5 stars for their academic integrity, small class structures, introducing new innovative programs and career paths, and overall academic model for incoming and prospective students.Read More

NAG Numerical Routines for GPUs
NAG has been at the forefront of numerical algorithm provision for nearly four decades and during that time has delivered algorithms in many different guises addressing numerous application areas. One area where NAG is currently collaborating with Oxford University Professor Mike Giles, is the provision of routines optimized for Graphics Processing Units (GPUs).
GPUs have traditionally been used to accelerate 3D computer games, but as these games have become more and more demanding, GPUs have evolved into powerful accelerators capable of general purpose scientific computations. This type of computing has been termed 'personal supercomputing' (PSC).
The collaborative research undertaken by Professor Giles and NAG experts has resulted in a suite of GPU routines targeted at financial applications. The suite contains high performance, parallelized GPU kernels which give significant performance gains compared to traditional CPU systems. It also contains "inline" GPU device function random number generators.
Numerical Routines for GPUs Overview
The suite contains the following components:
- The MRG32k3a pseudorandom number generator (L'Ecuyer) with streams and substreams
- The MT19937 pseudorandom number generator (Matsumoto, Nishimura) with streams and substreams
- A Sobol generator in up to 50,000 dimensions with digital scrambling (Hickernell)
- Uniform, Exponential, Normal and Gamma distributions in single and double precision
- GPU device function MRG and Sobol generators which can be embedded in users' GPU kernels
- A Brownian bridge constructor for up to 8 dimensional Brownian motions
- A high-performance Brownian bridge constructor for up to 4 dimensional Brownian motions
- Cholesky factorization and LU decomposition for double precision matrices resident on the GPU
- User-configurable performance tuning and full error handling
How can I gain access to NAG Numerical Routines for GPUs?
To obtain a copy of the software please complete the online registration of interest form here or contact us directly for more information. Software is available for evaluation under a collaborative licence for proof of concept usage and is delivered for production usage via our consulting services licence.
NAG is engaged with commercial clients for feedback about these routines and further development of numerical routines for GPUs. The routines are also available to academics subject to a collaborative agreement.
Ongoing work
NAG is continuing to develop further routines for GPUs. Future content includes linear algebra (LAPACK), PDE solvers, fat-tailed distributions, univariate and multi-variate distributions, and copulas amongst others.
A joint article describing aspects of the GPU implementations is also available (published in NVIDIA's GPU Computing Gems).
We would like to thank the Technology Strategy Board (TSB) and the Smith Institute for their support in sponsoring this project and EPSRC for supporting Professor Giles' academic research

When you place an order the shipping amount will show $0.00. Soon after you place an order you will receive an email confirmation that shows the amount of shipping that was added to your order.
Shipping depends on quantity ordered and distance from Milwaukee, WI. (Midwest-USA)
Final shipping cost is determined by weight of the item(s) and distance from Milwaukee, WI. Shipping prices generally quoted are for items shipped to the Midwest area in the USA. If you are ordering a single item or multiple items the total shipping price is determined after you place the order. I try to keep my shipping prices to a minimum and use Postal Flat Rate boxes whenever I can utilize them for an order.

Students walk 5 laps around Cathedral of Learning in Oakland
University of Pittsburgh students honored the victims of the Boston Marathon on Friday by walking five laps around the Cathedral of Learning in Oakland.
The five laps were symbolic of the five miles Boston College students planned to walk from their campus to where the marathon finish line was.
Tori Harms was one of many from the Pittsburgh region who participated in the Boston Marathon, and joined students for the walk at Pitt's Oakland campus.
"I think you need to show solidarity for people who actually came out to cheer us on as runners, that came to cheer on their loved ones, and also for those runners who ran for charity, they ran for a good cause, and now they are in hospitals," said Harms.
Pitt students told Channel 4 Action News' Andrew Del Greco they were very proud of the strong showing of support at the event.

Pettibone's troubles at Coors Field continue
Starter gives up eight runs, two walks and a homer in four innings
DENVER -- Phillies right-hander Jonathan Pettibone hoped Friday night's start at Coors Field would be a memorable one.
But not like this.
Not after the way he pitched here last season. Not in the first game of a 10-game road trip through Colorado, Los Angeles and Arizona. Not in his last start in the Phillies rotation with Cole Hamels set to rejoin the team and take his spot Wednesday in Los Angeles. Pettibone allowed nine hits, eight runs, two walks and one home run in four innings in a 12-1 loss to the Rockies.
The Phillies optioned him to Triple-A after the game, something they said they decided to do before the game. Right-handed reliever Shawn Camp will take his place on the roster.
"You want to leave a lasting impression, so they know who they want to call back up when someone is needed," Pettibone said afterward. "It's frustrating. But I'll go down there, get after it and get better."
Coors Field has been a nightmare for Pettibone. In two starts here he has allowed 19 hits, 15 runs (14 earned runs) and three walks and has struck out two in seven innings for an 18.00 ERA. He allowed 10 hits, seven runs (six earned runs) and one walk in three innings June 15 in a 10-5 loss.
Of course, Pettibone is not the first pitcher to have allowed seven or more runs in consecutive starts at Coors Field. He is the 54th pitcher to accomplish the feat.
This is a massive ballpark with a reputation for big offensive numbers.
Livan Herandez got smashed in four consecutive starts from Sept. 7, 1998, to June 28, 2000, when he allowed 32 runs in 22 2/3 innings. Edinson Volquez and Juan Nicasio suffered the same fate as Pettibone in two consecutive starts here just last season.
"I'm definitely not pleased," Pettibone said. "I just have to get better, make better pitches. No real time for making excuses. Their guy did fine."
Pettibone allowed back-to-back singles to Charlie Blackmon and Drew Stubbs to start the bottom of the first inning. Carlos Gonzalez lined out to Chase Utley for the first out, but Troy Tulowitzki worked a 14-pitch at-bat into a walk to load the bases. Tulowitzki fouled off eight consecutive pitches, including one Jimmy Rollins nearly caught down the left-field line in foul territory after running a mile from his spot in the infield.
"I literally threw everything I could at that point," Pettibone said.
"Yeah, in some regards," said Phillies manager Ryne Sandberg, asked if that at-bat could have taken something out of Pettibone. "Still, even those pitches were up in the zone. He didn't have a pitch to get him out. He threw a lot of pitches. The elevated pitches weren't missed tonight."
Justin Morneau's ground-rule double scored two runs to make it 2-0 as the Rockies scored two more in the first to take a 4-0 lead. It got uglier from there with Tulowitzki hitting a three-run home run to center field in the second inning to make it 7-0.
"I had a similar pitch that I hit the home run on that I missed in that first at-bat," Tulowitzki said. "That [first inning] at-bat set up my day. I saw so many pitches from him that I knew everything he had. It helped my second and third at-bat [an RBI double in the fourth]."
Rockies right-hander Tyler Chatwood had no problems with the Phillies. He held the Phillies to just two hits, one unearned run and one walk with six strikeouts hits in seven innings.
"He hit his spots," Marlon Byrd said. "It's one of those days. He had it going and we didn't today, and it showed."
The only bright spot for the Phillies? Right-hander Mike Adams made his season debut and needed just seven pitches to throw a perfect fifth inning. His fastball hit 90 mph.
"He looked like he had some good movement," Sandberg said. "He was down in the zone. It looked like he had some good movement on his pitches."
Adams opened the season on the disabled list as he recovered from right shoulder surgery last July. The Phillies are hoping he can be a consistent late-inning reliever.
There were no big late-inning outs to be had Friday. This game had ended by the second inning.
"A great road trip is 8-2," Byrd said. "We already have one loss into that so we've got to pick it up tomorrow and try to score some runs early. Their offense is potent. They know how to play here. They love playing here and hitting here. We have to try to back them against the wall early in the game and help our pitching out."

Took this shot just before leaving for the airport - good thing it was a coolish day, so she could wear her tunic and boots.
Pattern: Schoolhouse Tunic from "SewLiberated"
Fabric: Osaka Snowflakes (Japanese 100% cotton) purchased from Tessuti Fabrics.
Sold out. Hopefully more on the way because I just love Japanese cottons.
|Perfect outfit for Uni
Jess really loves her tunic and the fabric is just perfect!! It is not black but a french navy - sorry pics doesn't show the colour well.
I didn't use elastic on the sleeves, as the pattern suggested, but made a little cuff - it's a nicer finish, in my opinion, and suits it perfectly. Have decided to add this feature to my tunic.

CFB: Iowa outlasts Missouri 27-24 at Insight Bowl
AP College Football Writer
TEMPE, Ariz. (AP) – Micah Hyde ran around, even behind the Missouri Tigers. Fill-in freshman Marcus Coker ran right over them.
Coker ran for 219 yards and two scores, and Hyde scored on a meandering, 72-yard interception return in the fourth quarter to help Iowa beat Missouri 27-24 in the Insight Bowl on Tuesday night.
Undermanned due to injuries and suspensions, Iowa (8-5) turned to Coker, who had 403 yards and touchdown as Adam Robinson's backup during the regular season. The bruising freshman had no trouble taking over with Robinson gone to a suspension, setting school records for yards and carries 33 in front of an Insight Bowl-record 53,453 fans.
Missouri (10-3) had its way with Iowa's once-stout defense most of the night, rolling up 512 yards, including a school bowl record 434 passing by Blaine Gabbert.
Gabbert finished 41 for 57 to set two more school records, but inexplicably threw the ball right to Hyde, who dodged several tackles while running backward and sideways before racing up the sideline for the second-longest interception return in Insight Bowl history.
Missouri had one final chance, but a fourth-down reception by T.J. Moe with 2:15 left was overruled on review and Coker helped grind out the clock. Moe finished with an Insight Bowl record 15 receptions for 152 yards.
Once fierce rivals, these teams hadn't met in a century, despite being separated by less than 250 miles.
The 12-game rivalry plagued by dirty play, riots and racial discrimination ended following a particularly brutal game in 1910, and a planned four-year series from 2005-08 also fell through, putting an interesting twist on this Midwest battle in the desert.
Missouri was looking to cap one of its best seasons, even after having its Big 12 and BCS bowl chances dashed with consecutive losses to Nebraska and Texas Tech. The Tigers won their final three games to get into the Insight Bowl and were in position for their third 11-win season as a program.
Iowa had a different kind of momentum going.
After opening the season No. 9 in the polls, the Hawkeyes were plagued by injuries and an inability to close out games. They had five losses by a combined 18 points and entered having lost their final three.
Turned out to just be the prelude to their problems.
Since the regular season ended, the Hawkeyes have lost their all-time leading receiver, top rusher and two other running backs.
Receiver Derrell Johnson-Koulianos was the first to go, booted off the team after being arrested on drug charges in early December. Running back Robinson then was suspended for breaking team rules, and was arrested Monday night for marijuana possession, jeopardizing his career at Iowa.
Promising running back Jewel Hampton also decided to transfer and fullback Brad Rogers was out to undergo cardiological tests.
Johnson-Koulianos and Robinson combined for 21 touchdowns during the season. Their loss put more pressure on Coker and wideout Marvin McNutt.
Neither seemed to be bothered by the added spotlight. McNutt hauled in a 49-yard catch on Iowa's first drive and Coker punctuated it with a 1-yard touchdown run.
Coker followed that by blowing through a big hole on right side early in the second quarter for a 62-yard touchdown run – Iowa's longest of the season – that put the Hawkeyes up 14-3. He had 113 yards on 16 carries in the first half.
Gabbert was doing what he does best going the other way, picking apart Iowa's defense with short an intermediate throws. He was 12 for 31 for 284 yards in the first half, setting up a 23-yard field goal by Grant Ressel in the first quarter and Henry Josey's 10-yard touchdown run that made it 17-10 in the second.
Gabbert had the Tigers moving again late in the half, but the drive ended when Brett Greenwood picked off a deflected pass in the end zone.
Coker and Gabbert continued to counterpunch in the second half.
Coker ran over Missouri linebacker Jarrell Harrison on a 35-yard run early in the third quarter, setting up Mike Meyer's second field goal, from 21 yards.
Gabbert kept winging passes all through Iowa's defense, setting up his own 7-yard touchdown run, then followed the first of two interceptions thrown by Iowa's Ricky Stanzi – he had four in 324 attempts in the regular season – by hitting tight end Michael Egnew on a 3-yard TD pass that put the Tigers up 24-20 heading into the fourth quarter.
