Thanks to VodPod, here's NBC's video of last night's SNL send-up of the VP debate. Tina Fey did ANOTHER dead-on "winky-folksy-question avoiding-makes me want to gag" version of Sarah Palin, while SNL cast member Jason Sudeikis portrayed Sen. Joe Biden. Having Gwen Ifill "do" Gwen Ifill would have been sheer perfection, but I will say that Queen Latifah did a great job putting forth some "what the heck are you doing" looks toward Fey/Palin which I'm sure the majority of America was making while watching the actual debate last Thursday. (And I use the term "debate" loosely. ;))
SNL also did a skit regarding the bailout–I mean "rescue" plan–, and while it had some good moments (Fred Armisen as Barney Frank), it dragged on far too long.
Also, PLEASE make sure to REGISTER TO VOTE!! The deadline for my fellow Californians is 10/20, but in some places it's today. Head over to Declare Yourself to find out information for your state.
Enjoy the SNL VP debate video!

Tints of Nature is the first and only range of long lasting permanent hair colors on the market today containing certified organic ingredients used in an advanced formula to cover all grey hair. Our unique blend of natural organic extracts and Vitamins E & C, combined with plant derived conditioners, will actually enhance, protect and moisturize as you color your hair.
Ingredients Include:
Certified Organic Comfrey Extract
well known for its soothing and healing properties
Certified Organic Roman Chamomile
maybe the finest of all essential oils. It is rich in natural Azulin,
which is renowned for its calming and healing properties
Certified Organic Aloe Vera
to moisturize and cool the scalp
Certified Organic Orange and Grapefruit
to moisturize and protect the skin. Also act as anti-oxidants.
In keeping with industry guidelines, the 24 Tints of Nature permanent colors are classified by ICC numbers. These signify depth of color and vary from 1, the darkest to 10, the lightest. Following each number is a letter or letters which further aid identification.
Nine of the available Tints of Nature colors have the letter N' as their suffix. We call these our natural colors as they are the closest to those colors that tend to occur in nature with human hair. Moreover, because of their good match, it is these colors that are normally most effective at blending in and covering grey hair.
The other 15 colors are known as our fashion colors and also have ICC numbers to aid with their identification. Some of the suffixes used with these colors are unique to Tints of Nature, while others, as with the N' suffix above, are identical to those used by other manufacturers. This similarity facilitates direct color comparisons between Tints of Nature and other brands of hair color. The fashion colors offer a greater variety of choice than that of the natural colors and although they might not cover grey quite as well they can, if required, very often be blended with a natural color to achieve greater grey coverage.
For more information on blending, please ask your local store or visit our website.
Please remember - with Tints of Nature, because of its milder, more natural method, hair color can usually only be lightened by 1-1½ shades. Using either the chart above or the swatch ring available in your local store, you should compare your chosen color or colors to the natural depth of color of your hair to ensure it is not too light. On the other hand, if you want to darken your hair, Tints of Nature can usually achieve this over a range of several colors.
Changes Semi-Permanent Colors are not covered by ICC regulations. With them, the easiest way to choose your color is to refer to either the chart above or to the swatch ring available in your local store. Once you've selected your desired color, check on the back of the carton for compatibility with your natural hair color.

Conservationists have bought 46,000 acres of desert grasslands in northern Mexico in an effort to show the black-tailed prairie dog -- seen as a pest in much of the western United States -- can help grazing lands thrive.
MEXICO CITY Conservationists have bought 46,000 acres of desert grasslands in northern Mexico in an effort to show the black-tailed prairie dog -- seen as a pest in much of the western United States -- can help grazing lands thrive.
The goal is to protect the prairie dog, as well as other rare native plants and birds. The project also aims to promote better farming practices among cattle ranchers, agricultural cooperatives and Mennonite farmers who have been hurt by 12 years of drought.
Resented by ranchers who see them as pesky grass-eating competition for their cattle, prairie dogs actually can help grazing lands by cutting down shrubs and churning up the soil when they burrow, allowing water and air to filter into the ground, said Terry Sullivan, assistant state director for the New Mexico office of the Nature Conservancy, the project's U.S. sponsor.
Both "misunderstanding, and maybe misapprehension, of prairie dogs" is a challenge for project organizers to overcome on both sides of the border, Sullivan said.
In the United States, ranchers who blame the animals for destroying their grazing lands have been engaged in a protracted battle with conservation groups who fear prairie dogs could become an endangered species.
In Mexico, the Nature Conservancy, with help from the National Autonomous University of Mexico, is developing a management plan involving "working" prairie dogs at the El Uno cattle ranch, outside the small town of Janos, about 45 miles south of the New Mexico border. The plan also will rely on reseeding, rotating land use and prescribed burns of grazing areas.
A "grass bank" will let ranchers graze cattle at El Uno while allowing the soil on their own lands to rest and recuperate.
The plan's primary goal is to provide a model that will help cattle ranchers and farmers recognize the biological treasures of the area, said Rosario Alvarez, director of the Nature Conservancy in Mexico.
"It's an area that is not that charismatic but which has great importance as a habitat," Alvarez said.
Conservationists hope the project helps to preserve a slice of the Chihuahua desert that serves as an important part of a larger ecosystem.
"Many species that spend winters in Janos spend summers in the northern grasslands of the U.S. and Canada," Sullivan said. "We see this as an integral part of protecting grasslands in North America."
The Janos grasslands are believed to support more than 200 species of birds. The area also is home to the white-sided jackrabbit, kit fox, jaguarundi and pronghorn. Burrowing owls make their homes in abandoned prairie dog tunnels.
The rare black-footed ferret, which feeds on and helps hold down the population of prairie dogs, was reintroduced to the area three years ago.
The Mexican conservation group Pronatura purchased the ranch at market value, according to the Nature Conservancy, which refused to disclose the exact sum.
This is not the first time Pronatura and the Virginia-based Nature Conservancy have joined forces in the interest of conserving Mexico's flora and fauna.
Late last year, they negotiated a deal that protected 370,000 acres of tropical forest on Mexico's Yucatan Peninsula. In 2003, international nonprofit groups, including the Nature Conservancy, contributed millions of dollars to protect a Manhattan-sized island on the Sea of Cortes from development. Both sites feature unspoiled ecosystems including exotic plants and animals, while the rain forest contains ancient Mayan ruins.
The activists have found a strong ally in former Janos Mayor Celso Jaquez, who says local ranchers who continue to suffer from drought are open to new ideas on how to care for receding pastures.
"They understand a little more the benefits that prairie dogs can bring," Jaquez said. "They don't see them the way they do in other places. The prairie dogs eat a small percentage and leave a great benefit."

Now that I am developing some comfort and facilty with NT Greek (I carefully avoid the e=expertise word!), I am toying with the idea of putting my toe in the Hebrew pool.
I used Mounce's book for Greek, and found it (with the workbook which was essential for stand-alone learners) to be well thought out and enormously helpful.
The basic Hebrew book I've been looking at is "Basics of Biblical Hebrew: Grammar" by Gary D. Pratico - but I have no idea whether this is a good choice or not. Any advice or suggestions on a Beginners Hebrew Grammar Text (+Workbook) by the BW gurus of OT Hebrew?
I'm not sure I'll do more than get more than my toes wet in Hebrew, since I still have lots of work to do in Greek, but I know that, at the stage of choosing a text, it is very very helpful to hear from those who have gone before.
In His Service, Tom D.

What You Need to Know About the Sneak Thief of SightDownload Fact Sheet
Glaucoma is a serious, lifelong eye disease that can lead to vision loss if not controlled. But for most people, glaucoma does not have to lead to blindness. That is because glaucoma is controllable with modern treatment, and there are many choices to help keep glaucoma from further damaging your eyes. Treatment cannot reverse damage that has already occurred, but it can prevent further vision loss. Glaucoma is an eye disease that causes loss of sight by damaging a part of the eye called the optic nerve. This nerve sends information from your eyes to your brain. When glaucoma damages your optic nerve, you begin to lose patches of vision, usually side vision (peripheral vision).
There are many types of glaucoma. Often, the cause of high pressure in the eye can help tell the type of glaucoma and the best treatment for it.Learn More
Doctors don't know exactly how glaucoma damages the optic nerve. For many people, increased eye pressure seems to play an important role.Learn More
Age, race, family history, and medical history are all risk factors that may increase your chance of having glaucoma.Learn More
There are three major signs that a person may have glaucoma: optic nerve damage, vision loss (visual field loss) and increased eye pressure (elevated intraocular pressure). Your eye doctor has a number of tests to check for these signs.Learn More
Glaucoma can usually be treated and controlled using medicine(s), laser surgery, glaucoma surgery or a combination of these treatments.Learn More
A simple technique can help keep more medicine in your eye and make glaucoma medicines more effective.Learn More
You must work with your eye doctor if you have glaucoma. Eye doctors know how to treat glaucoma, but they have to work with you to find the best way to treat your disease.Learn More
The Welcome to Medicare Physical covers screening for glaucoma.Learn More

Bye Bye Love
(1) Find Carlitos to help Joana escape Gomorrah. (2) Talk to Joana, on Carlitos' behalf, at Gomorrah. (3) Joana has decided to escape Gomorrah. Talk to Carlitos about her decision. (4) Carlitos wants to meet Joana in Freeside, between midnight and dawn. Explain the plan to Joana. (5) (Optional) Carlitos suggests getting backup before attempting the escape. Find the two guns-for-hire that owe him a favor. (6) Joana agreed to Carlitos' plan. Talk to her once you're ready to escort her during the escape. (7) Joana will wait, in disguise, at Gomorrah's lobby. Go there and lead the girls to Freeside. (8) Help Joana, and the girls, in their escape to Freeside. (9) Joana is safely delivered to Carlitos. The Omertas who set up the ambush are gone. (10) Joana is free and reunited with Carlitos. She spoke about rumors of a sinister Omertas' operation.
Important Items...[edit]
As you know, there are several interesting casinos on the New Vegas Strip that are worth exploring. One of them is known as The Gomorrah, the casino closest to the front gate that leads into the Strip from Freeside. When you enter, you'll meet the crew that controls the casino. They're called the Omerta, and even if you're already friendly with them (primarily by helping them out during the Side Quest known as How Little We Know ), you'll still get your weapons taken when you enter. But that's fine. As long as you play your cards right here (pardon the pun), you won't need your weapons here anyway. The person you're looking for to begin this side quest is named Joana. She's a prostitute that works at the casino, and you can usually find her out in the courtyard adjacent to the casino (accessible only through the casino). She'll either be dancing for or flirting with some customers, or perhaps in her room off of the courtyard's catwalk.
When you speak with Joana outside, you'll be whisked away to her room. She's afraid of saying anything out in the open, since the Omerta can easily eavesdrop on the conversation. When you're alone with her, you'll learn about her plight. She's essentially a prisoner of the Omerta here at the Gomorrah, and wants to get out. But she doesn't know how. Use your powers of persuasion to convince her that she can make it out of the Gomorrah alive, and that she can live a happy life thereafter (et cetera), which will require a good Speech skill. You can even use your Science skill to out her on her drug addiction. (Keep in mind that without a high Speech skill and Science skill, you may be out of luck with this side quest.) But ultimately, to help her, you'll need to agree to go speak to her friend Carlitos. You can find him at the Vault 21 Hotel on the far end of the Strip. Feel free to speak to the woman named Sarah within if you need more help finding Carlitos in the labyrinthine interior of that gimmicky hotel.
When you finally locate Carlitos, you'll find that he's a bit of a pushover. You can pick his brain about all sorts of subjects, but ultimately, you'll need to resort to talking about Joana to really pique his interest. Carlitos is interested in reuniting with his lost love Joana, just as she is interested in reuniting with him, but it's not that simple. Joana and Carlitos need to figure out a way to get her out of the Gomorrah without anyone being the wiser, and that's not as easy as it seems. Joana is bound to work for the Omerta, and she'll require Carlitos direct help to get out alive. Meanwhile, the Omerta have a bounty on Carlitos' head, so he can't directly help her, either. What to do? For the time being, you'll need to return to Joana to let her know that Carlitos wants to do what he can to help her escape without losing his own head. And remember our pushover comment from a little earlier? We said that because you can rather easily get Caps out of Carlitos multiple times throughout this side quest. Keep that in mind moving forward if you want to pad your wallet a bit.
Now that you've touched-base with Carlitos at the Vault 21 Hotel, you have to (frustratingly) leave the hotel and return to the Gomorrah, where you'll find Joana once again. When you begin to speak with her, she'll again whisk you away to the relative privacy of her suite. Let her know that Carlitos is still on the Strip, still interested in her, and wants to help her escape. That's all she really needs to know. But she's still not confident that she can make it (which is where your usual powers of persuasion come in yet again). Convince her otherwise, and then tell her that you'll go back to speak with Carlitos yet again in order to let him know that she's game for an escape attempt.
Annoyed yet? That's not surprising. This back-and-forth crap can be a bit tiring. Leave the Gomorrah yet again, and head back to the Vault 21 Hotel. Enter the maze-like depths of the hotel and begin your search for Carlitos. Chances are, he won't be found in the same place he was earlier (which was likely at a table in the kitchen area of the vault), so you'll have to search various corridors to find him. If you're having problems, go ahead and mark this quest as active in your Pip-Boy, and then use your compass to find him. When you do, you'll be able to speak to him some more. Elated that Joana has decided to rejoin him, he still regrets that he can't help her more directly, or risk being found out by the Omerta. Without his help, there are only a couple of other people in Freeside he can rely on. While the next task he gives you is optional, it's important that you undertake it, because it will basically seal your success moving forward.
To find the two men Carlitos told you about, you'll need to travel over to the Atomic Wrangler Casino, which is located in Freeside. If you want to be quick about it, all you really have to do to get there is head outside on the Strip, and then quick-travel to the front gate in Freeside. Then, run towards the outskirts of Freeside, where you'll eventually find the casino in question on your left. Enter, and look for two shady-looking men standing together, both with impressive beards. These men are named Little Beard and Big Beard. Big Beard is the only one who will talk to you, though. Speak with him and tell him that Carlitos sent you. He'll know exactly what you mean, and will help you out later, when Joana and her friends make their escape. That's it. That's all you have to do. Now, it's go-time.
Head back to the Strip, and back to the Gomorrah. Then, return to Joana yet again, and she'll escort you back to her room so you can speak with her in private. Tell her that you're ready to go. All of the pieces are now in place. However, you can't make your escape until after midnight, so if it's not between the hours of midnight and about three or four in the morning, go ahead and opt to use the in-game wait option to wait until a little after midnight. Then, speak with Joana again. She'll automatically change into her chosen disguise, and will begin her gingerly walk towards the entrance to the Gomorrah. You can stay a bit behind her and follow along the entire way. Once she and her two friends reach the entrance, they'll head out into the Strip itself. Don't do anything to draw any attention to yourself!
You're going to have to exercise a little bit of patience moving forward here, because getting out to the Strip will take time. The girls will walk slowly through the casino -- a little too slowly, in fact -- but trust us. As long as you don't do anything stupid, like attempt to speak to Joana a dozen times as she's walking, the Omerta all around you won't be tuned-in to what's going on. Once out on the Strip, the girls will eventually break into a run towards Freeside. And once you arrive at Freeside, things start to get very interesting. But again, for the interest to pique, you're going to first have to be patient... yet again.
Follow the girls through the entrance/exit to Freeside. They'll walk forward and then bear rightward down an ancillary road. They'll sit around for a while near the mouth of this alleyway. After a few moments, your friends with the beards will appear down the street, and everyone runs towards them. After waiting for a little while longer, Carlitos will finally show up, and everyone will opt to get going. But just when that happens, four Omerta thugs show up. They've been following this entire fiasco for some time. Now you have to decide just what you're going to do about this unexpected bump in the road.
This is where things get complicated, because you can use all sorts of special checks to try to get out of the situation. You can convince them that you work for the Omerta, you can try to buy them off, or you can even scare them away. Worry not, though, if things descend into violence. As long as you're quick in defeating them, no one will be the wiser as to this massacre. And with your bearded friends' help, the lovebirds should survive the fray, too. Then, they'll both thank you before heading off, leaving you with a successfully-completed side quest. (It's worth noting that even if this side quest concludes violently, it shouldn't interfere with the Omerta-based Side Quest known as How Little We Know .)

Specifically Christian newcomers to the study of Judaism frequently puzzle over why — as they themselves often put it — Jews "don't believe in Jesus." The reality is simply that the entire Jewish concept of who and what a Messiah actually is (or does) is just nothing like what Christians themselves have in mind, when […]
So, what happens if or when religion ventures beyond its own purely non-empirical (or strictly "spiritual") backyard, and starts making claims regarding empirical (detectable, testable) matters?
Such claims would fall properly within the purview of empirical science, which possesses the tools and the expertise to investigate and assess such claims. Any such empirical claims as religion may venture to make are, therefore, subject to scientific scrutiny — and to scientific verification or otherwise.
This means that, so long as religion limits itself to insights or assertions regarding such inherently non-empirical matters as the reality or nature of God or the Divine, of the soul, or of the afterlife (or to such non-empirical abstractions as the meaning of life or the ultimate purpose of existence), it remains safe from empirical scientific criticism.
However, should religion make assertions or claims about empirical reality, it then opens the door to the possibility of being proven wrong. This can and does happen, such as when religion has made claims about the earth being flat (and covered by a domelike firmament), or about the earth being the center of the universe (with sun, moon, planets, and stars all rotating around its terrestrial/cosmic axis).
Many today would say that much the same sort of thing is once again playing out now. Within certain theologically conservative contemporary religious quarters, specific claims and assertions — scientifically testable ones — are being made about such empirical matters as the age of the universe, the age of the earth, and the age of humanity.
For instance, Young Earth Creationists (or YECs) claim, on the basis of scriptural (religious) evidence, that all of creation is no more than six to ten thousand (6,000 to 10,000) years old.
By contrast, mountains of converging empirical evidence from a broad spectrum of scientific fields and sub-disciplines paints a very different picture, according to which the universe is nearly 14 billion (13,770,000,000) years old, the earth itself about 4.5 billion years old, life on earth dates back about 3.5 billion or so years, and primitive humans first appeared a little over 2 million years ago (modern humans being only perhaps 200,000 years old).
Notwithstanding creationist claims to the contrary, the empirical evidence in favor of this scientific consensus regarding the age of the cosmos and of life on earth is overwhelming (literally over 99.9% of scientists working in relevant fields accept the factual reality of evolution). And so here, it would seem, we have a clear-cut case of a genuine disagreement or conflict between science and religion.
Notice, however, that such a conflict or disagreement arose only when religion ventured beyond its own sphere, into the realm of empirical claims and assertions. Had it refrained from doing so, instead restricting its claims to non-empirical realities (the soul, the Divine, the meaning of existence, etc.), then its claims would have remained impervious from the empirical challenges of science.
Some see this as a weakening or a diminution of religion, conveniently limiting its sphere of expertise to areas which are forever safe from scientific criticism. Others see this not as an attack or criticism of religion, but instead as a fundamentally corrective insight into the perfectly legitimate and natural limits of religion's proper domain or real expertise.
After all, just because the objects or focuses of religion (God or the Divine, the soul, the afterlife, etc.) are non-empirical and therefore beyond the scope of empirical science to discover or study, does not necessarily also mean that they do not exist, or are irrelevant; it simply means that they are not — and cannot be — subjects of empirical scientific study.
If, most fundamentally, religion and science are "apples and oranges," then how can they ever truly conflict — unless a wayward apple tries (illegitimately) to be, or to function like, an orange?
(To be continued, in Part Four.)

Gumby Framework is cool.
Face tattoos are not.
We realized awhile back that a lot of Javascript was being written for the sole purpose of adding and removing classes to elements for CSS animations. We figured this was a waste of Javascript and behold, Toggles and Switches were born unto developers everywhere. Don't be mislead by the simple explanation though. While simple sounding you can build pretty complex things such as accordians, image sliders, drawers, and much more.
Toggles and switches rely on the
gumby-trigger attribute. With this attribute, you can do tons of things. You can hide an element, toggle an element, show a hidden element and much more. Let your imagination run wild.
Don't Forget! On its own, the
.active class does nothing. You'll need to hide it, color it, animate it on your own.
Placing one element name inside the
gumby-trigger attribute will add and remove
.active upon click. In the example below we're going to toggle the #something id. By itself, nothing will happen; But create a CSS animation for the
.active class or even something as simple as
display: none then watch toggles and switches come to life.
Toggle #Something!
Here we're putting two elements separated by a pipe character that will receive the
.active class at alternating times. Below,
#something has the active class, but upon clicking the link, the
.somethingelse element will receive an
active class and the
#something element will have
active removed.
Toggle
Same principle as before with toggles, just with a different class name. A switch will alternate the active class between the elements listed in
gumby-trigger however this will only happen once.
Switch
With an empty selector before the pipe, Gumby knows to hide the element after the pipe on click. Note again that this is a one time action. If you need them to happen repeatedly, toggles are what you need.
Switch
Utilizing Gumby's event listening you can do things like toggling the classes on
mouseout and
mouseover events.
Toggle
Remain calm. Your answer lies in the attribute
gumby-classname where you can specify what class gets added to the elements in your toggles and switches.
It just so happens that Gumby's own drawers and modals are actually built with toggles and switches. Did I not tell you how powerful this thing is? Read all about drawers and modals below.
Both Toggles and Switches work in the same way (and in fact are handled by the same JS UI module) with only one small difference. As the name suggests, Toggles will toggle a class on a set of elements while Switches will add and remove a class only once. As simple as this sounds, complex UI elements with reasonably advanced functionality can be created using Toggles and Switches only.
Each Toggle and Switch requires a
gumby-trigger attribute containing one or two selectors separated by a pipe. A class of
.active (or the class name specified in
gumby-classname) will be added to the first selector and removed from the second. Toggles will continuously repeat this interaction, toggling the classes back and forth, whereas a Switch will perform the action only once. Neither of these selectors are actually required, you can simply provide one selector, with no pipe separator, to which the active class will be added, or supply an empty first selector in order to only remove the active class.
Both Toggles and Switches also provide an optional
gumby-on attribute which can be used to set the triggering event. They use the click event by default but you can set it to any number of standard JS events.
Any element can be a Toggle or a Switch, just add the appropriate class.
Read more on Gumby's Toggles & Switches on the Digital Surgeons blog.
Skip links allow you to vertically slide the window to a specific DOM element, a px point or up to the top of the page. There are two classes that can be used to define a skip link,
.skiplink provides the same predefined styles as buttons while
.skip can be used to create unstyled skip links.
Either way, add one of the classes and a
gumby-goto attribute containing a valid css selector, a px value or simply 'top'. Clicking the skip link will trigger the slide.
There are three optional attributes you can use to tweak the functionality.
gumby-easing and
gumby-offset. Skip links use jQuery.animate and the
gumby-duration and
gumby-easing attributes are fed directly into that method. The duration should be specified in ms and the easing method as a string, any valid jQuery easing method can be used here so include the jQuery easing plugin to get creative! The
gumby-offset attribute can be used in conjunction with the
gumby-goto attribute and should be specified as a +/- integer e.g -10 or +100. This attribute is useful when sliding to elements with padding or margins or perhaps in conjunction with Fixed Elements.
Something to be aware of is the fact that as your page loads and users interact with it, elements can change position which will effect the skiplinks goto point. The
gumby-update attribute can be used to specify that the targets positions should be recalculated on every trigger.

Go to Toggles & Switches

Go to Fixed Positions

gumby-fixed attribute can be applied to any element in order to fix and pin at certain points. The fixed value can be specified as a px value, a css selector or the string 'top'. If a selector is specified, the element will be fixed when the result of the selector reaches the top of the window. If 'top' is specified then the element will be fixed as it reaches the top of the window itself and if a px value is specified the element will be fixed when the window scroll offset reaches that value.
A point at which to pin the element can be specified in
gumby-pin with the same options as
gumby-fixed. At this point the element will become pinned rather than fixed, check out our documentation sidebar for an example of this.
There are a few more attributes that can be used to help position the target element. Specify a px value in the
gumby-offset attribute to set an offset from the fixed point, similarly a px offset for the pin point can be specified in
gumby-pinoffset. The
gumby-top attribute can then be used to specify the distance from the top of the window a fixed element should be, defaulting to 0.
Finally, the fixed module will attempt to constrain the width of the fixed element if nested inside rows/columns, which will naturally become relative to the window and therefore lose inherited styles, this width will also be updated on window.resize. You can stop this functionality by specifying 'false' in
Check out our documentation sidebar, we're using Fixed Elements.

Still Dreaming Lyrics
2am I lie down deep in slumber, feelings of falling downward, I want to forget. Waking up I hear the way your voice sounds, my heart starts to pound now, to the rhythm of yours. You're so angelic, your words so symphonic. Touch your lips to my soul, eat this sorrow away. How am I so lucky I found you? Sometimes I feel like I'm still dreaming. It seems like everyday you're always on my mind. This is how we stay so connected, so connected over space and time. When we talk about all my old drama, you look at me and wonder, how I'm not insane. Every week the days seem to get longer, but you know our love gets stronger, with every word we say, stronger everyday. You know I would do anything for you. If you were feeling down, you know I'd feel it now. We give each other strength to make it through the darkness. You take me to a place I never want to leave. I'm in my deepest dream I don't ever want to wake up. I'll fight 'til I die. I won't say goodbye and I won't let this pass me by. Let's run away, run away, run away now. Let's go away, go away to someplace safe, I want it all, now I want everything. This is how we stay so connected, so connected over space and time.

Ethan: One of the most undemocratic events in Maine politics is going to happen soon: the "election" of constitutional officers. Our secretary of state, attorney general, treasurer and auditor will be appointed by secret ballot of the Legislature. Isn't it time we joined almost every other state in the nation that elects one or more of these positions by popular vote?
Phil: I'm not with you on this one. I don't characterize it as undemocratic to have these folks elected by legislators. The thought of amending the Maine Constitution, so we can have four more candidates running for statewide office — raising money, demeaning their opponents and making the position more partisan — is not going to serve Mainers better.
Ethan: If you think the people running for constitutional offices aren't already partisan, raising money and demeaning their opponents, then you served in a very different Legislature than I did. The difference here is that all of this campaigning is completely outside the view of the voters.
Phil: Be that as it may, the constitutional officers function more for the benefit of the governor and Legislature in regards to running the affairs of the state. Therefore their campaigns should focus on convincing them they are qualified.
Ethan: What about the separation of powers? Remember, these officers are in charge of making sure the elections of those who appoint them are fair. They also make sure these same people operate within the laws of the state of Maine. It is the definition of conflict to have the people you oversee be the people who can fire you.
Phil: Your party was in charge for 40 years. Apparently this conflict hasn't bothered Democrats in the past.
Ethan: Interestingly, when we were in charge, Republicans always put the bill in to change this law, and it was my side that wanted to protect its own power. Then, when your party had control, Republicans got awfully quiet. Look, the secretary of state is in charge of our elections and all who drive on our roads. These functions affect every person in Maine and should be accountable to the people. The attorney general is our chief law enforcement officer. It is imperative that this person be completely independent of backroom influence and be accountable only to the residents of the state.
Phil: The secretary of state approves who is allowed on our roads — yet it's the Legislature and governor who decide what changes may be needed. Meanwhile, the attorney general runs one of the largest law firms in Maine, adjudicating murder trials and environmental violations. Do you really want "the Firm" to be run by the best partisan campaigner?
Ethan: I want it to be run by someone beholden to the people through a direct democracy that rewards or punishes their performance and vision. Let's take the controversy last year with Treasurer Bruce Poliquin. Some serious allegations of unethical behavior were thrown at him by Democrats. Republicans shouted back that the allegations were way out of bounds. The courts said they had no jurisdiction. Without choosing sides, wouldn't it have been better to ultimately let the people decide whether Poliquin was right or wrong?
Phil: You just proved my point. Imagine the media circus and political maneuvering surrounding the most qualified person in decades to serve as treasurer. The Legislature voted Poliquin in and will not re-elect him next week.
Ethan: Au contraire, mon cheri. The point that has been proven is mine. If indeed Poliquin is the most qualified treasurer the state has ever seen, then why should he lose his job simply because he is a Republican? Let the people decide, and perhaps he would still be able to put his greatness to work for the state.
Phil: Have you gone Franco on me with the French? My point is simply that the Legislature and governor have to interact with these folks and so should have the ability to influence who sits in the office.
Ethan: Right now, the only people who have a chance at getting one of these positions is someone who is close to the majority party in the state House. That's a small and elite universe.
Phil: Using your rationale, why aren't you promoting the popular election of the president of the Senate?
Ethan: First of all, the individual serving as president of the Senate is elected by the people. Second, even in the role of president, he or she has the same number of votes on policy as everyone else. The constitutional officers, on the other hand, make significant policy decisions all by themselves. For example, former Secretary of State Bill Diamond made national news when he affirmed the right of homeless people to vote. Likewise, current Attorney General Bill Schneider sued the federal government to overturn Obamacare. Whether or not you agree with these positions, the people should have been allowed to affirm or deny these actions at the ballot box.
Phil: I believe the voters just did by returning Democrats to the majority. But remember, legislators can respond to their constituents' requests much sooner than the ballot box. If people were angry that Schneider made that decision, you better believe they will let their legislator know. That's democracy.
Ethan: Now that everything in the Legislature has switched around, let's see if your party goes back to its old position and if my party will put the power in the hands of the people as they should.
Phil: I can see it now: campaign commercials exclaiming why Suzy Smith is the best state auditor in the nation, and don't vote for Sam Small for treasurer because he can't count!

David Moyes refused to condemn Ashley Young as the Manchester United winger was involved in another diving controversy in the goalless Champions League draw at Real Sociedad.
The England international won a 69th-minute penalty for United – which was missed by his fellow substitute Robin van Persie – after reacting theatrically to a slight pull by the Sociedad midfielder Markel Bergara. Two former United players turned television pundits, Roy Keane and Ray Wilkins, accused Young of "conning" the Italian referee, Nicola Rizzoli, with Wilkins labelling the dive "pathetic".
But Moyes, who took Young to task for diving against Crystal Palace earlier in the season, would not be drawn on whether the midfielder had resorted to theatrics again. United had Marouane Fellaini sent off for a second bookable offence in the 90th minute and Moyes did say of the penalty: "I thought there were some strange decisions all night and that was another one of them." But he refused to criticise Young's part in its award.
"I have seen it again," the United manager said. "The boy tugs him in the box. The referee is two yards away from it and decides to give it. He's got a penalty kick for a decision tonight. I don't know about his reputation but the referee is there and he gave it. The referee made decisions all night. He's the one who saw fit to award a penalty and send a player off. I thought the referee made the decision and that was the referee's choice."
The new Republic of Ireland assistant manager Keane was more forthright, however. "He's obviously played for it," he told ITV. "If you are a Man United player and you see a player getting tugged back, you want him to go down. Ashley Young's obviously gone down too much over the last few months. He's been heavily criticised in England but we are in a foreign country and it's more accepted. But he's almost conned the referee there. If he scores the penalty, as a United player you would be delighted, but he's conned the referee there."
Wilkins said on Sky Sports: "This [dive] is pathetic. This is as bad for me as all these over-the-top tackles we're getting at the moment because that is a conning of the referee. I just wish Ashley would cut this out because he's a good player but he's getting a bad name."
Van Persie also hit the post from open play and Javier Hernández missed a glorious chance from six yards as United had the edge in the Basque country. Moyes said: "I see it as a missed opportunity to take three points. We had some good chances, especially in the second half, and I felt we were worthy of getting all three.
"We are still in a strong position. If we'd won it would have given us a really strong chance of winning the group. We are still top but I do feel like we've missed a chance tonight."

Navigation is critical for mobile robot applications, such as maximum-space-coverage home cleaning, goods delivery for logistics robots in warehouse and hospital, to name a few applications only. Challenges in navigation include 3D map import or construction (e.g., SLAM), path planning, and collision avoidance. In this webinar, which is divided into two sections, we demonstrate how to develop and simulate a collision avoidance algorithm with the CAD model of an Adept mobile robot (Pioneer 3-DX) in Simulink. After you verify that the algorithm works on desktop simulation, you can seamlessly test the algorithm on the real robot by using the same Simulink model without reimplementing the algorithm.
Simulation of different robot algorithms before manipulating the real hardware enables robotics researchers to focus more on algorithms development and worry less about hardware debugging. Meanwhile, it also makes robotics teaching more affordable. Every student doesn't need access to an expensive robot to learn various concepts of robotics technology. Sometimes it might be that the department is on a budget (apart from student's budget) and might have only one robot for the entire class.
In Section 1, we demonstrate how to:
In Section 2, we demonstrate how to:

DAF Night Lock
DAF Night Lock
To protect truck drivers against intrusions and robberies in their cabs, DAF has become the first truck manufacturer to introduce a night lock for the doors. It can be easily and quickly mounted to every DAF XF105.
The DAF Night Lock is a mechanical lock mounted on the cabin sidewall and with a pin of hardened steel that slides into the armrest of the door in which the necessary reinforcements are already factory installed.
When developing the DAF Night Lock, in addition to the highest possible strength and simple mounting, optimal ease of use was also central. To ensure that the driver is also able to exit the cab quickly in emergency situations, one press on the red button is sufficient to immediately disengage the lock.
A special sticker on the door handle alerts those outside to the presence of the DAF Night Lock. Whenever it is engaged, it is impossible to open the truck door, even using a crowbar.

Otto Mears: Pathfinder of the San Juan Mountains
Pioneer Otto Mears built the toll roads and railroads that opened southwestern Colorado for settlement and mining, earning him the name "Pathfinder of the San Juan."
Born in Russia and orphaned at an early age, relatives sent Mears to England at age 9, and then to New York. From New York he sailed to an uncle in California, but when Mears arrived the uncle was gone. So in 1851, at age 11, Mears was alone. He made his way by hawking newspapers on the Barbery Coast, tinsmithing, and working in the California and Nevada goldfields.
At the outbreak of the Civil War, he enlisted. As a volunteer in the First California Regiment, he served under Colonel Kit Carson during the Navajo campaign.
When discharged in 1864, Mears went to Santa Fe. He worked as a shopkeeper for the Staab Brothers. The brothers offered to help Mears open a store in Conejos, Colorado, so the next year he moved north. In Conejos he opened a general store, farmed wheat, and built a flour and sawmill.
He later moved to Saguache and began business there. He found a market for his flour in Leadville because of the mining camps, and built a good wagon road from Saguache to the Arkansas River near present day Salida. This was a toll road and the first of many he constructed.
Mears eventually turned his interest to building narrow gauge railroads. The trains were mostly used to carry supplies and transport ore from the mines. The first was a line from Silverton to Red Mountain. Following that he built the Rio Grande Southern from Ridgway to Durango.
In 1893, Mears lost control of the Rio Grande Southern railroad. The repeal of the Sherman Act caused a silver crash that closed the mines. People left, there was no ore to haul, and the Rio Grande Southern went into receivership. Mears lost much of his wealth, but wasn't discouraged. He went on to build a railroad from Washington, D.C. to Chesapeake Beach, MD.
There were other accomplishments. He brought the first telegraph to Fort Garland, spoke Ute, befriended Chief Ouray, negotiated the Brunot Treaty of 1873, was chairman of the Board of Capitol Managers overseeing the construction of the state Capitol, was a state representative and newspaper publisher.
Former Colorado governor and Sen. Charles S. Thomas said this in Mears' 1931 obituary.
"I first met Mears in the San Juan country in the early '70s, not so many years after he came to the state. He was a small man, exceedingly nervous and always active. He was forever scheming and planning some new development. He was then engaged in his many toll road enterprises. He impressed me as a very brilliant, tho rather eccentric figure…Altogether, he was a very picturesque figure, a typical western frontiersman, full of fire and vitality."

The droids wiring in the bottom set is really nicely detailed, and again repaints are fun different droids/figures.
The RX droid seems to have new arms as the pinchers and wiring in the droid pictured don't seem to match up to the old ReX figure. Even the RX's head seems new with more of an open mouth sculpt.

Watson's Jeopardy Showdown: Man Vs. Machine
An epic showdown of man vs. machine took place Feb. 14-16, 2011. That's when "Watson ," a computing system from IBM, faced off against "Jeopardy!" superstars Ken Jennings and Brad Rutter. Turns out, an artificial intelligence-driven machine can overcome championship-level human minds. With Watson, the key challenge isn't a command of statistics and factoids. It's a matter of programming a computing system that can pick up the subtle nuances of the game show, including knowing how to bet. This requires understanding of language, including the puns and irony that provide the subtle clues hidden in the often-clever wording of the Jeopardy! answer-and-question trivia format. Ultimately, Watson is designed to help us determine the extent to which intelligent machines can be used to resolve problems related to technology, health care and a broad range of other topics. In the book Final Jeopardy: Man vs Machine and the Quest to Know Everything (Houghton Mifflin Harcourt/Available now), author Stephen Baker details the history of Watson leading up to the big event. Machines like Watson will eventually emerge as the norm in offices, factories and emergency rooms, Baker contends, as well as influencing our smartphones. "Each one of us will have to figure out how to leverage these smart systems for our own good -- and not be replaced by them," he says. "Our brains are still the most intricate, complex and brilliant thinking machines on earth. But we have to figure out how to use them in concert with the machinery we're building." Looking to test your own knowledge? In honor of the Man Vs. Machine showdown, CIO Insight used information from Baker's book and other resources to create this Jeopardy!-styled quiz to test how much you really know about IBM's Watson.

Malice in the Palace: The Hawaii Crown Jewel Robbery
Did the Hawaii Guard steal gems, fence them and even swap them for opium? Read on for the sordid tale.
(page 1 of 3)
Three months after Queen Liliuokalani was deposed, on Monday, April 3, 1893, the keys of Iolani Palace were transferred from Chamberlain James Robertson to the provisional government's new custodian, R. Jay Green. The two conducted an inventory and noticed that, in the chamberlain's locked basement office, a leather trunk had been broken open.
Inside the trunk, in a satin-lined box of polished emboyna wood, was King David Kalakaua's crown—bent and twisted. Every jewel had been pried out. The velvet lining had been torn away, and the Maltese cross on top, with its stunning six-carat diamond, had been broken off and taken. The ring of kalo leaves along the band was bent, and some of its gold filigree was missing.
Designed by the king and purchased in London in 1882 for £1,000 from Hoffnung and Co., the solid-gold crowns of Kalakaua and his queen, Kapiolani, contained when they were new: "521 diamonds, 54 pearls, 20 opals, 20 rubies, eight emeralds, one carbuncle and six kukui nut jewels." (Kapiolani's crown was safe. She had taken it home, following Kalakaua's death in 1891.)
"PLUNDERED!" roared the headline in the newspaper Pacific Commercial Advertiser as it recounted the theft. Accusations were traded as to who had been in charge of the palace basement.
Detective William Larsen set out in search of the robber. He was 37, born in Copenhagen, having arrived in Hawaii in 1882. He had worked his way up the ranks, from officer to lieutenant to captain. He had just recently been made chief of detectives.
Weeks passed with no announcement as to progress in the case. Everyone had a theory, of course. Attorney General William Owen Smith wrote to Lorrin Thurston on April 8: "The durned crown was broken into pieces. Some things point to someone acting in the interests of Mrs. Dominis." (The anti-royalists no longer referred to the ex-queen and widow of John Dominis as Liliuokalani.)
On April 19, it was reported that several men were seen carrying a bundle near the barracks, behind the palace. They were shot at and disappeared. A search produced nothing. Some suggested the men were returning the jewels; others speculated they were ghosts.
At the end of April, some workers were cleaning out the palace basement. On the ground were found "a few worthless stones" (perhaps the polished kukui nuts) and "some filigree work which had been broken from the crown." The items were turned over to the police.
Working on the case, Larsen first got the names of half-a-dozen guards who were on duty the weekend of the robbery. He began interviewing them. One of the guards, a 25-year-old corporal named George Ryan, gave evasive answers. Ryan had been arrested for carrying a concealed weapon in January, and ordered out of the Islands. Instead, he had joined the reorganized Hawaii Guard. On May 10, he had been court-martialed for dereliction of duty and discharged from the guard three weeks later. Larsen had no evidence against Ryan, but interviewed a guard who claimed to have purchased an unmounted diamond from Ryan.
On June 13, Larsen searched Ryan's room in the White House Hotel on Nuuanu Avenue. In a wardrobe hung a vest, and in one of the pockets Larsen found a small package, wrapped in tissue paper, containing a dozen small diamonds. Henry Wichman, a Fort Street jeweler,
valued the stones at $2,500.
Larsen searched Honolulu all day for Ryan, finally meeting up with him at 9 p.m., near the Commercial Saloon on Nuuanu. Larsen invited him in for a drink and promptly informed him he was under arrest. It was June 13. The police day book read: "George Ryan—larceny of crown jewels valued at $2,500." Searching him, Larson found another diamond in Ryan's pants pocket. Ryan was booked, photographed and given the inmate number 996.
But that didn't solve the case. Had Ryan acted alone? What had happened to the rest of the gems? Only a handful of the smallest diamonds had been found in Ryan's vest.
Here things get tangled, and a whole cast of Honolulu characters enters the scene.
One of them was Ryan's fellow guardsman, Richard Stone. A month after the theft of the crown jewels was discovered, Stone was arraigned in Judge Henry Cooper's First Circuit Court for shooting a policeman in an earlier brawl at the Pantheon Saloon on Hotel Street.
Also appearing before Cooper that day was a Chinese merchant named Ah Fook, charged with gambling.
Stone escaped and, at 10 a few nights later, was pounding at Ah Fook's door, in the company of another man. They asked for opium. Ah Fook, suspicious, insisted he didn't allow opium smoking at his place of business. They then tried to sell him two diamonds.
Ah Fook declined, insisting he had no money.

The Paul McKenna Band are quick rising stars in the Scottish/Irish traditional scene, going from strength to strength, touring extensively throughout the UK, USA, Canada and Europe and now releasing their 4th studio album ELEMENTS on August 27th. With a contemporary approach to songs, although not straying too far from their roots, their arrangements are both fresh and innovative, created by the solid lead vocals and guitar of Paul McKenna, the driving bouzouki and mandolin of David McNee, the rhythmic fiddle and banjo of Mike Vass and the melodic flute and whistles of Sean Gray, plus the explosive beat of Ewan Baird's bodhran.

text: I don't have a preference either way on the draft. I am perfectly happy with a snake or straight draft. I don't see the draft having much influence on my team one way or the other. I might draft a bench player or a fringe prospect. It depends on who is available when my turn comes up I guess.
