From the New York Magazine archives, here's the late, great Vic Ziegel on Ali-Spinks II:
he copy of Money magazine offered to Leon Spinks during his flight to New Orleans was full of splendid suggestions for a new career. Soccer coach, that was something the heavyweight champion might want to think about. Nowhere is it written that soccer coaches have to run through strange cities at five in the morning. Or spend great hunks of each day inside expensive hotel rooms that offer baskets of apples and Gouda instead of X-rated film selections. And there aren't small armies of people telling the cover-boy soccer coach to kick this, do that, no this, no, no, no . . . armies that depend on the heavyweight champion to provide their per diem expenses.
The magazine went unread, of course. Leon Spinks was in Louisiana to defend his title against Muhammad Ali, a 36-year-old body with the staying power of Tutankhamen. Ali was the favorite. Ali was the attraction—the once, twice, and future champion. Leon Spinks? Come on. Just another name on an expired driver's license.
"Did you hear what Spinks did when he came off the plane?" The lawyer is talking to a sportswriter after the fight. The party is at the Windsor Suite of the New Orleans Hilton. Sportswriters are badly outnumbered by designer suits. Worse yet, the lawyers had heard all the best available fiction.
"Spinks gets off the plane and he does an interview. Everything's cool. No problems. And then they hustle him into the sheriff's private car to drive him to the hotel. The first thing he does—this is in the sheriff's car, right?—the first thing he does is take out a joint and light up."
[Art by Neil Adams]

I've had a good teacher. Just noting some of the things I've come across.
Default Apache httpd configuration in a cluster with multiple filesystems
By default, Apache httpd generates an ETag of the format
inode-filesize-timestamp. A symptom of this sort of physical architecture is seeing ETags for the same resource and representation that have the same last part; e.g.
"518854-3504d-ce290380" and
"c8578-3504d-ce290380", and probably the same Last-Modified value too. This can be fixed by changing the Apache configuration or ignoring the ETag and just using Last-Modified. I would normally recommend retaining the ETag and just using the MTime and Size parts to calculate the ETag value.
EScenic CMS
I'm not sure whether this is an application developer issue, or a problem with the EScenic server itself, but the ETag values that I've seen from this server aren't quoted.
Etag: 20080523124147BST-39-6
The ETag value should be a quoted string
Django on Google App Engine 1.0
The version of Django 0.96.1 that shipped with Google App Engine had a similar problem to the EScenic Server, so I'd recommend bundling Django with your app until Google update the bundled version. I went to fix this in Django trunk, only to find someone beat me to it!

Ken Buck is watching what he says.
The Republican prosecutor became a symbol for his party's political overreach in 2010, when he beat the establishment pick in a U.S. Senate primary, only to lose to Democratic Sen. Michael Bennet.
During the race, tea party favorite Buck was pounded for statements that angered some gays and women. Bennet's surprise victory became a 2012 template for Democrats, including President Barack Obama, who went after their challengers' statements on reproductive health and women's rights.
Now Buck is back, having survived a bout with cancer, and is the front-runner in his party's June primary to challenge Democratic Sen. Mark Udall. The race will test whether Republicans can avoid the mistakes that kept the Senate out of their hands in the last two elections. This time, the GOP needs a net gain of six seats to take charge.
"I fail to see how somebody who lost the winnable election in 2010 is the face of the future for this party," state GOP Chairman Dick Wadhams said. "The same issues are going to come back."
At a recent meeting of the Teller Tea Party Patriots, Buck seemed aware of the bigger picture when he answered an audience question about which federal agencies he would close.
"We have to talk responsibly," Buck told the crowd inside a Denny's. "The minute a Republican candidate says we need to do away with the Department of Education, the Democrats are running commercials saying Republicans don't like school lunches. ... I can't tell you honestly that we can walk in and fire 8,000 employees."
The shadow of 2010 hangs over Buck and the state party.
For much of the country, that was a banner year for Republicans. They rolled up more House seats than in any election in seven decades, netted six governorships and won at least 675 state legislative seats.
Colorado was a different story.
Buck lost what analysts considered a winnable Senate seat. A tea party favorite in the governor's race split the GOP, leading firebrand Tom Tancredo, a former congressman, to run as a libertarian, and paving the way for Democrats to retain the seat.
Tancredo is now the front-runner in a crowded Republican primary field to challenge Democratic Gov. John Hickenlooper.
Wadhams prefers former state House Majority Leader Amy Stephens, but her voting with Democrats to create Colorado's health exchange has angered some party activists. Two state senators, Randy Baumgardner and Owen Hill, also are running.
Buck and his backers argue that the 54-year-old district attorney won't have to go through such a bruising primary, knows what Democrats will throw at him and is ready to shift the debate back to economic issues that they believe help the GOP.
"People will get to know me this time and they will understand that material in perspective," Buck said in an interview.
Last time, Democrats savaged Buck for his dig at his primary opponent, former Lt. Gov. Jane Norton, for wearing "high heels," for his support for an initiative to give a fertilized egg legal rights and for his comparison of homosexuality to alcoholism.
Walt Klein, a veteran strategist who worked on Buck's prior Senate bid and is helping him again, says Buck "has benefited from the trials and tribulations of the 2010 campaign. He is even more focused and energized."
Democrats who have campaigned against Buck say he is a more adept politician than the gaffe-prone stereotype that lingered after 2010.
But Guy Cecil, who ran Bennet's campaign and is now head of the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee, says that what matters most are the policies that Buck and his opponents must embrace to win the primary.
"The question is what happens when you draw a contrast between an independent Colorado moderate like Mark Udall and a candidate who operates on the extremes," Cecil said. "You can certainly look at the rest of the Republican field in Colorado and they share the same positions" as Buck.
Buck said in the interview that he didn't start thinking about a second try at the Senate until well after he lost to Bennet by 29,000 votes out of more than 1.7 million cast. Before he could figure out what he wanted to do, he was diagnosed with stage 4 lymphoma last March.
"I had 22 tumors in my neck," he told the crowd at Denny's. "I had 12 tumors in my arm. I had cancer in my spleen." Buck said the doctor said he'd be dead in three months without chemotherapy.
The cancer vanished after three chemotherapy sessions. Buck said he decided his heart was in trying again to go to Washington and shrink the federal government.
In his appearance in Woodland Park, a bedroom community at the base of Pikes Peak and a short commute to Colorado Springs, Buck's political skills were apparent. Dressed in a gray sweater, jeans and cowboy boots, he kept the crowd happy with denunciations of Obama and Udall. He cited the cancer to show his motivation to win and also to bash Obama's health care package.
But he refused to be baited into incendiary statements.
One questioner asked him to grade a range of GOP senators, from tea party favorite Ted Cruz of Texas to Arizona's John McCain, the mention of whose name evoked scowls and grumbling.
Buck noted he was going to have to work with all senators and that he would give none a failing grade.
Someone else in the audience wanted to have U.S. Supreme Court Justice Elena Kagan impeached, to invalidate last year's ruling upholding the constitutionality of Obama's health care law. Buck dismissed that idea, say the high court's decision was the law of the land.
To hammer home one point, he told the story of a local official he had met during his latest swing through all of Colorado's 64 counties. Then he paused, as if struck by an idea.
"You know," he said, "I love running for office. I may do it the rest of my life - after I win."

In these times of tight money (ignoring the stock market's recent surge), buying a new car can be an angst-ridden experience. Many buyers want as efficient a machine that they can get for as few dollars as possible. Hybrids will get you better fuel mileage numbers, but hybrids can also be pricier than a non-hybrid so…
Out comes the calculator as you stand there in the lee of the car dealer's showroom, trying to figure out the difference in price between the two cars (hybrid and non-hybrid) and how much money you will save and how many more gallons of gas you'll buy for the less efficient of the two cars. It does get complicated and you begin to think, hmm, isn't there a simpler way of doing this?
Maybe. Ford is now offering what is essentially a bulked-up Focus, but with a hybrid drive train. It's called the C-Max and, when you come down to it, it functions pretty well as an all-around people-and-things hauler, but it will not win any beauty contests.
Aiming at the Prius
What is clear is that Ford built the C-Max after taking an envious look at the success of the Prius – Toyota has sold more than 1 million of this hybrid car in the U.S. since it was introduced in the late 1990s, and more than 2 million worldwide. It is a number that resonates through the halls of Ford's glass-and-steel world headquarters in Dearborn, Mich. So Ford took a European Focus five-door hatchback, installed the hybrid drive train from the Escape, primped up the inside of the car into a fairly sophisticated cabin and set it loose in America. In Europe, the Focus can be had with several non-hybrid engines, but in the U.S. there are only two models – the C-Max hybrid and the C-Max Energi, a plug-in hybrid. The car we tested was a 2013 C-Max hybrid SEL, which has a base price of $28,200. The car had options (navigation, power liftgate, rear view camera, premium audio and hands free technology wizardry) which brought the price up to $30,810.
Given that the C-Max costs a shade over $30,000, you are undoubtedly doing the math to see if the fuel economy is worth paying extra. Let's say you looked at a Ford Focus Titanium five-door hatchback, the top-of-the-line non-hybrid Focus, with a price of $24,200. The C-Max, according to Ford's EPA numbers, gets 47 mpg. But, and this is a serious but, Ford and others (Hyundai and Kia come to mind) have been criticized of late for inflated mileage claims. I averaged 35.6 miles per gallon in my session with the C-Max. Using figures provided by the government's fueleconomy.gov Web site, the C-Max showed "unofficial (average) mpg estimates from vehicle owners" of 38.5 mpg; the non-hybrid Focus had an average of 29.9 mpg. For the sake of argument, let's call it a 9 mpg difference. The Focus costs about $6,000 less than the C-Max SEL. So your choice is this: you can sacrifice 9 mpg and save $6,000 or spend the extra $6,000 and bank on gasoline becoming more expensive and therefore, several years from now, you will amortize the cost of buying the more expensive hybrid. As I said earlier: it's complicated.
All that aside, what do you get with the C-Max, compared to the Toyota Prius V wagon, possibly the C-Max's closest competitor? The C-Max, to my mind, is more of a car. First off, it feels quieter and somehow more substantial than the Prius V I've ridden in (I haven't driven one yet). It is only two inches higher than the Prius V, but is eight inches shorter, which gives C-Max passengers more of a feeling of being high off the road. The C-Max has a commanding view all around and feel more like a minivan than a station wagon. The Prius V is clearly a wagon, and Toyota managed to find more interior room (with second row seats flat, the Prius has 67 cubic feet vs. the C-Max's 53 cubic feet). The C-Max, with its 188-horsepower drive train is also faster than the Prius V (134 combined electric- and gasoline- powered horses) and seems to ride better.
Complicated electronics
For all those slogging hours on the freeway, Ford is trying to make the journey more palatable by giving you the "MyFordTouch" infotainment system, which combines Bluetooth, phone, navigation, heating and cooling. When it was introduced in 2010, the system was roundly criticized for being too complicated and riddled with bugs. Ford says it has fixed the problems, but I found it was still pretty complicated to use, if not buggy. What I did notice: the clock lost its mind for about five hours and then snapped back to life. Go figure. The rear window wiper switch, stuck at the end of the main wiper stalk was so tiny that fat fingers like mine kept sliding off it. Hey, Ford, maybe a fix there?
But those are minor glitches. If somebody asked me about what hybrid I would suggest, I'd certainly say, have a look at the C-Max. After all, other things being equal, where else can you get a car for $30,000 whose grille is nearly identical to the grille of an Aston Martin, a marque once owned by Ford.

How heavy do I journey on the way,
When what I seek, my weary travel's end,
Doth teach that ease and that repose to say,
'Thus far the miles are measured from thy friend!'
The beast that bears me, tired with my woe,
Plods dully on, to bear that weight in me,
As if by some instinct the wretch did know
His rider lov'd not speed being made from thee.
The bloody spur cannot provoke him on,
That sometimes anger thrusts into his hide,
Which heavily he answers with a groan,
More sharp to me than spurring to his side;
For that same groan doth put this in my mind,
My grief lies onward, and my joy behind.
Sonnet 50: Translation to modern English
How heavy my heart is as I travel because my goal – the weary destination – will provide, in its leisurely and relaxed state, the chance to think "I'm so many miles away from my friend." The horse that's carrying me, wearied by my sadness, plods heavily on, bearing the weight of my feelings as though the wretch knows by some instinct that his rider is reluctant to speed because he's moving away from you. The blood-drawing spurs that I sometimes thrust into his hide in anger can't make him go any faster. All he does is respond with a heavy groan that hurts me more than the spurs in his sides hurt him because it reminds me that my grief lies ahead and my joy is all behind.

iPhoto on iPad Demo Video
Ever since the Apple big event last week, been getting a lot of questions from ppl regarding the new iPhoto app for iPad and iPhone. Whether it's any good and worth US$4.99. Well, to answer all, nothing beats a demo video so ppl can see it for themselves. I personally find the iPad version more appealing with that extra screen estate. For the iPhone….nah.

Adobe Addresses Lightroom 4 Issues
Repost from Lightroom Journal via PASM Workshop
The team would like to provide an update on several issues discovered since last Monday night's launch. Thanks for your patience while we investigated and compiled this list.
Point Tone Curve Migration
In Lightroom 3, the Tone Curve panel added a "point curve" adjustment option in addition to the default parametric curve. When a customer upgrades their Lightroom 3 catalog to Lightroom 4, any images with point curve adjustments will lose those specific settings. This is a high severity bug and we are working hard to provide a solution as quickly as possible. Several members of the community have already started helping us test a fix that can be applied to an upgraded Lightroom 4 catalog. We'll be providing updates via this blog and the following Lightroom Feedback thread.
"Edit in" Workflow for External Editors/Plug-ins
There is a bug on both Mac and Windows that can cause the "Edit in…" workflow to fail for third party applications and plug-ins. Many of our customers working with Nik plug-ins have found that they're unable to launch their plug-ins from within Lightroom 4. (This is more prevalent on Windows) We are testing a solution for this problem and it will be included in our next update. Feedback on this bug is captured here.
Edit in Photoshop Workflow
Currently, the Edit in Photoshop workflow asks that you have the Camera Raw 7 plug-in installed. Please note that the Camera Raw 7 plug-in is not available at this time. The correct plug-in for Lightroom 4 and Photoshop CS5 compatibility is Camera Raw 6.7, currently available on Adobe Labs Please keep in mind that currently Camera Raw 6.7 is a a Release Candidate version of the plug-in. A "release candidate" label indicates that this update is well tested but would benefit from additional community testing before it is distributed automatically to all of our customers.
Reverse Geocoding Delays
We had a temporary loss of reverse geocoding results on Tuesday. This problem has been resolved and we're monitoring the issue with Google's help.
Serial Number Delivery from Adobe.com Store
A small group of customers that ordered Lightroom 4 as a software download(not a boxed copy) on Tuesday or Wednesday did not receive serial numbers. We've corrected the error and we'll be monitoring this issue going forward. If you're included in that group and have not received a serial number yet, please contact Jeff Tranberry, our Chief Customer Advocate, with your order number and any support case numbers you have.
Upgrade Details
We've had several questions around who is eligible for an upgrade to Lightroom 4. Any Lightroom 1, 2 or 3 version of Lightroom, education editions included, can utilize the upgrade version of Lightroom 4. The prior version of Lightroom does not need to be installed on the computer, however you will need the prior version serial number at the time of installation of Lightroom 4. (If the prior version is still installed on the computer, Lightroom 4 will automatically pick up that serial number so you don't need to go digging through boxes or your email)
Upgrade policy for those that just purchased LIghtroom 3
We've seen quite a few questions from those who have just purchased Lightroom 3. If you purchased Lightroom 3 very recently you may be eligible for a complimentary upgrade to Lightroom 4: http://www.adobe.com/go/pa

It's no secret that the stock market makes most of its gains in the winter months, and if it's going to have problems they usually take place in the summer months.
The pattern is so consistent that academic studies prove that over the long-term betting on the pattern even with a strategy as simplistic as the venerable old 'Sell in May and Go Away' dictum, outperforms the benchmark S&P 500 by a wide margin, while taking only 50% of market risk.
However, it doesn't happen every single year. So by far the majority of investors remain skeptics, and in spite of their performance history believe there must be a way to be right 100% of the time.
Last year (2011) the market followed the seasonal pattern in classic fashion. The rally in the winter months of 2010-1011 topped out May 1, followed by a double-digit summer correction. The summer correction ended in October, and a typical winter months rally began.
This year followed a similar pattern – until June. A strong winter rally topped out in late April into a summer correction. But the correction ended at the June low, with a rally that carried the market up to a level fractionally higher than the seasonal May exit. At that point, exiting May 1 had not paid off.
But then the market pulled back again to a level lower than the May 1 peak.
The question for seasonal investors now, fractionally ahead of the market if they followed the spring exit and recent re-entry signal of my Seasonal Timing Strategy, is whether the rally that began in November was the beginning of a typical favorable season rally into next spring.
It's been a nervous attempt to rally so far as uncertainties over the fiscal cliff negotiations continue.
That uncertainty is not being helped by the way several months of positive economic reports that indicated the U.S. economic recovery is back on track, have been replaced by some reports for October and November that are less supportive of that conclusion.
As I wrote last week, durable goods orders were flat in October after an encouraging increase in September, new home sales fell 0.3% in October, and consumer spending declined in October for the first time in five months.
On Friday this week it was reported that the University of Michigan-Thomson Reuters Consumer Sentiment Index fell sharply in early December, from 82.7 in November to 74.5 so far this month, much worse than the consensus forecast of 82.0
The Labor Department also reported on Friday that 146,000 new jobs were created in November, much better than the consensus forecast of 95,000. But previous reports for September and October were revised down by 49,000 jobs total.
But don't count seasonality for the winter months out yet.
The wait and see attitude of business and consumers regarding the fiscal cliff, which has been creating the recent weakness in economic reports, would likely take a decided turn for the better again if a reasonable compromise is reached to avoid the cliff, or at least kick it down the road again.
And nothing in the typically slow negotiation process so far has disabused me of expecting that outcome.
By the way if that happens, although it would a positive for a few months, down the road the remnants could provide the catalyst for the seasonal pattern to continue next summer.
So I continue to be watchfully optimistic that a typical 'favorable season' rally will continue to come out of the rubble of the current uncertainties.
But it is still not a time for over-confidence, or to adopt a buy and hold approach.
Until there is more clarity regarding the cliff, I favor conservative holdings like the SPDR DJIA etf, symbol DIA, and the Utilities Sector, via etf's like the Select SPDR Utilities, symbol XLU, while holding an ample supply of cash ready to pounce on more aggressive opportunities.

Horse Flash: Apple's Steve Jobs on Adobe Vendetta in 2010 at D8 (Video)
At a 2010 onstage interview with Walt Mossberg and me at the eighth D: All Things Digital conference, the late Apple CEO Steve Jobs spent a lot of time — and with considerable passion — talking about his company's decision to dump Adobe's popular Flash technology in its iPhone and iPad devices.
While he insisted that he wasn't out to crush Adobe — instead using the metaphor of "choosing what horses to ride" — Jobs explained that the software technology was buggy, no longer useful, and, therefore, needed to be put out to pasture.
"We try to pick things that are in their springs … sometimes you just have to pick the things that are the right things going forward," said Jobs plainly. "Flash looks like a technology that had its day and is waning." According to Jobs, HTML5 was the new colt to back.
As to the implications on Apple's mobile devices if consumers did not agree with his choice, he noted that "it all works itself out," adding that a new iPad was then selling every three seconds.
"People seem to be liking iPads," said Jobs with his patented grin.
It's an interesting video to watch now — along with this one on Adobe CEO Shantanu Narayen talking about the issue a year later at D9 — because of reports that first surfaced last night, that the high-profile software company — whose Flash technology has been a flagship product — was halting development on the mobile version of its browser plug-in.
Adobe confirmed the move this morning, noting it will focus its PC Web browser business and on tools that allow Flash developers to create mobile apps by packaging their code to run on Adobe's AIR platform.
The move has big implications for Adobe going forward and also for mobile device makers, such as Google and Research In Motion. But not Apple.
As Ina Fried wrote:
"The move, if true, would be a major blow to Android device makers, who have long touted Flash compatibility as a key competitive advantage over Apple's iPhone and iPad.
It would also mark a posthumous vindication for former Apple CEO Steve Jobs, who took a controversial stand by not supporting Flash on Apple's mobile products."
Adobe now apparently agrees.
Here's the video clip of Jobs talking trash about Flash:
(And, here's a video from a year later from D9 of Adobe CEO Shantanu Narayen talking about the same topic.)

Awoke at dawn to early morning rain. Drove down to Cardiff Reef. Clean 4-6 foot peaks way way outside. Kind a cross between C Street and Lowers with sand. You walk out on a sand bottom until the first line of white water then the bottom becomes flat rock. You take off left or right on a rock boil and its a clean throwing peak like Lowers, but the shoulder closes out on a sand bar. Pretty crowded. Let the locals have the overhead sets and snapped up half a dozen quality smaller peaks. After I came in stood in the rain, no showers, then out of nowhere, a bolt of lightning Zap hit the weather vane on the big house on the hill in the Surfiner shot, time to get the hell out of Dodge!

Family mourns Ky. soldier killed in crash
North Dakota crash kills 2 guardsmen, injures 2 others
Two Kentucky soldiers away on training before heading to Afghanistan were killed in a crash while in North Dakota.
One of the victims was a local soldier from Walton.
Family members said Sgt. Ronald Forsyth was sent for train to North Dakota before the crash.
Forsyth was traveling with three other Kentucky guardsmen when they crashed near Devils Lake on Sept. 13.
Police said Forsyth and the other man in the back seat were killed.
New 5's Laura Borchers talked with the Forsyth's family on Tuesday.
Forsyth's mother, Rhonda Ashbrook, said she was shocked and confused when soldiers came to her door to inform her of what happened.
"That was terrible. That was terrible. I knew what they came for," Ashbrook said.
Ashbrook spoke with pride about her son's decision to enlist.
"He was very patriotic. He had an enthusiasm about it because he'd be a third generation in the Army," Ashbrook said. "One thing he always said was he who has nothing to die for has nothing to live for. And he'll always be everyone's Superman."
Forsyth's little brother, Kyle Ashbrook, now laces up in his brother's uniform almost every night. He also wears Superman shirts, something Forsyth was known for.
The family is now back home after an emotional funeral Monday.
"I didn't want to believe it. Even after going through everything we've been through I still don't believe it," Forsyth's brother-in-law, Sgt. Alex Peters, said.
Peters served with Forsyth in the Army. He said he's proud of the Kentucky Distinguished Service Medal awarded to Forsyth.
"He was a great man -- a great soldier, (and) a great father. He definitely will be missed," Peters said.
Police said the crash is still under investigation. The two guardsmen in the front seat were said to be OK.

Best definition
A male thunder cunt is quite similar to that of female. the male thunder cunt is a big gaping ass
hole with a smelly unclean small pecker. the gaping hole of ass which is considered quite grotesque, also has the continuous problem of leaking all over the ass hole's pants. the name thunder cunt comes from the definition of which there is a frightening storm inside a womans vagina. The male version of this problem, is the same, only in the rectum. Almost as if something has literally crawled up someone's ass and died.
Caitlin wont make out with a male thunder cunt who hits on her when they are bored.

If you haven't seen this excerpt from recently assembled autobiography of Mark Twain, I implore you to read it now. It's worth the click.
The restriction or removal of material does in fact present a slippery slope of what is "moral" (to use the example from the Twain anecdote) and that which is not. Moral relativism is the actor in that story in which the portrayal of the virtue of truth (and the vice of dishonesty) are unequally applied as criteria to the inclusion of materials in that library of the last century. Once you banish a book on the grounds that it features a liar, you need to banish all of the books that feature the same.
But I'm going to guess that this is nothing new, nothing surprising to the readers who find their way here. The ideals of librarianship, portrayed throughout the graduate school experience as well as to society at large, is that the library contains materials for all interests, for all ages, and for all curiosities. The reality is that we (the royal 'we' as a profession) are biased. We do it everyday with the resources we recommend, the search engines we use, the databases we go to, the books that we order, and the websites we read. These biases serve a very practical purpose: they prevent us from becoming frozen into inaction from attempting to be as neutral and unbiased as possible.
If a patron asked me to look something up online, I could run a search on Bing, Google, Ask, and Yahoo to find the greatest variety of answers. Instead, I just use one search engine (for myself, mainly Google). I could be missing results from another search engine, but that kind of reasoning greatly overcomplicates the situation and stymies the reference process. Of course, if I don't like the results I get from Google, I can go to the other search engines. The truth is that the ideal (looking to provide the largest range of correct results by being ) does not meet up with the reality.
Likewise, with material selections, all librarians are limited by their budgets. They cannot possibly hope to get all of the materials on every viewpoint with their subject or collection scope. With this, they must pick and choose which materials join the collection and which do not. There will always be something left out; the goal is to be as inclusive as possible by hitting all of the major works or vantages. That's why we have "go to" resources, material recommendations, and our own judgments when it comes to the library collection. Each of these represents a viewpoint of "the essentials" of a collection, something that raises certain materials above the others of its type. This is a bias, no matter how you frame it.
The critical thing here is to recognize our own personal biases and see them for what they are. It's what Twain did with that librarian over a hundred years ago; he showed how the same set of criteria could disallow for another book (using the Bible, no less). There is no humanly way for us to reach our ideal of being completely unbiased and neutral; but we should never stop trying to do so.
I think it would make ole Samuel Clemens proud.

Transforming modern retail: Findings of the 2018 RFID in Retail Study
August 22, 2018
August 22, 2018
RFID (Radio-Frequency Identification) has experienced unprecedented growth in user adoption, capability development, and overall business impact within the retail industry. Of 110 global retail executives surveyed as part of the Kurt Salmon, Part of Accenture Strategy 2018 RFID in Retail Study, an impressive 69 percent of retailers have cited a significant level of RFID adoption. Much of this growth can be attributed to the requirement of omnichannel execution and the pressure to constantly improve the customer experience. While RFID cost per unit has been a hurdle for some retailers historically, lowering technology costs and increased recognition of use cases continue to strengthen the RFID business case.
Sixty-nine percent of retailers around the world have cited a significant level of RFID adoption.
In North America, RFID has the largest footprint and it continues to grow as 92 percent of retailers in the region reported that they are progressing toward full adoption. Since 2016, this metric has increased by more than 25 percent—a solid indicator that RFID technology can finally be considered mainstream.
In Asia, with the growing pressure to serve customers who have the desire to shop anywhere at any time, 70 percent of surveyed retailers are turning to RFID to ensure they have both inventory accuracy and visibility. While the rest of the world has shown great acceptance of RFID, European retailers are lagging, with only 30 percent of surveyed retailers having begun RFID deployment. There are a number of companies however that use RFID extensively in Europe and we expect that group to grow as omnichannel pressures increase within the region.VIEW THE INFOGRAPHIC "RFID: A RETAIL STORY"
of retailers in North America report that they are progressing toward full adoption of RFID
of retailers in Europe report that they are progressing toward full adoption of RFID
A majority of retailers worldwide adopt RFID for the technology's most well-known use case: inventory accuracy. Within just one year of leveraging RFID, retailers typically recognize increased inventory accuracy and omnichannel fulfillment. Retailers that maintain RFID beyond one year begin to explore more advanced use cases including blockchain enablement and in-store smart technology. Retailers are now beginning to explore these new use cases to enable other emerging technologies in order to address their business challenges. Top business pressures reported by our survey respondents are:
RFID adopters will have a leg up on their competition in implementing innovative, new technologies to address these business pressures due to the detailed data provided from RFID and real time trackability of individual product.
Retailers that were piloting RFID prior to our 2018 RFID in Retail Study reported ROI of 6.8 percent on average, whereas those that had fully adopted RFID achieved a 9.2 percent ROI, showing a strong correlation between adoption maturity level and reported return on investment. Simply put, there is a strong business case for almost every retailer to implement RFID and the financial benefits of adoption tend to grow over time. This trend is a result of several efficiencies that are gained as a retailer progresses from piloting to having fully adopted the technology.
The superior returns reported by full adopters are consistent across all use cases identified in the survey, including inventory accuracy, omnichannel fulfillment and reducing store labor. These results suggest tangible benefits from RFID adoption, and the growth in retailer adoption worldwide indicates that the technology is perceived as an increasingly worthwhile investment.
The financial benefits of RFID adoption tend to grow over time.
As RFID adoption progresses, improved inventory accuracy and positive return on investment enable more advanced use cases, and full adoption ultimately enables retailers to provide customers with a full portfolio of omnichannel offerings. While several retailers listed omnichannel offerings as one of their top business pressures, there is a significant disparity between RFID adopters and non-adopters. 83 percent of RFID adopters offer three or more omnichannel fulfillment options compared to only 24 percent of non-adopters.

Youngstown State To Interview Tressel For Top Job< < Back to
Former Ohio State football coach Jim Tressel is among six candidates being interviewed for the president's job at Youngstown State University, where he used to coach.
Tressel also is one of three finalists for the top job at the University of Akron, where he has been an administrator for two years. He took a job at Akron after being forced out at Ohio State following a scandal in which his players sold memorabilia for cash and tattoos.
Youngstown State trustees plan to interview Tressel and five more candidates this weekend via Skype before picking three finalists to visit the school. The other candidates include administrators from several other universities and an official from NASA headquarters.
Tressel's interview for the Akron presidency is scheduled next week.

The North and the Island
The journey can begin with the less obvious: on southern Mozambique we find the most famous attractions, but northern Mozambique is home to beaches, islands and landscapes that have been left largely untouched by human action while the local culture is much less under the European influence that is still felt in the country's capital.
Pemba is one of the journey's first stops — a port city built in the early 20th century on a peninsula in Pemba Bay. Today, the capital of the Mozambican province of Cabo Delgado is a pleasant and relaxing place, located near white sand beaches surrounded by palm trees and baobab trees.

The song is performed in The April Rhodes Civic Pavilion, while rehearsals for the school production of West Side Story. It is split into two parts within the episode. The first part is edited into the scene between Blaine and Sebastian, showing Sebastian's personality, implying he can't be trusted and that Blaine can't fall into Sebastian's trap. The second part is entwined to where Tina talks about losing her virginity to Mike, talking about how it was the right time because it was with somebody that she really loved. Rachel realizes that Finn is the right person to lose her virginity to, because she loves him very much and she knows, he loves her just as much as she does.
A boy like that who'd kill your brother
Forget that boy and find another
One of your own kind
Stick to your own kind
A boy like that will give you sorrow
You'll meet another boy tomorrow
One of your own kind
Stick to your own kind
A boy who kills cannot love
A boy who kills has no heart
But he's the boy who gets your love and gets your heart
Very smart, Maria, very smart
A boy like that wants one thing only
And when he's done, he'll leave you lonely
He'll murder your love
He murdered mine
Just wait and see
Just wait, Maria
Just wait and see
Oh no, Anita, no, Anita, no
It isn't true, not for me
It's true for you, not for me
I hear your words
And in my head I know they're smart
But my heart, Anita, but my heart
Knows they're wrong
You should know better
You were in love, or so you said
You should know better
I have a love and it's all that I have
Right or wrong, what else can I do?
I love him, I'm his
And everything he is
I am, too
I have a love and it's all that I need
Right or wrong, and he needs me, too
I love him, we're one
There's nothing to be done
Not a thing I can do
But hold him, hold him forever
Be with him now, tomorrow and all of my life
Rachel and Santana:
When love comes so strong
There is no right or wrong
Your love is your life
- This is the first performance to be split into two parts between the episode to be intercut with two different scenes.
- This is the first Rachel-Santana duet of the series.

One Thousand Gifts? This is much harder than I thought it would be. One day this past week the only tangible "gift" I came up with was the fact that we learned that the capital of Delaware is Dover.
I have realized that to find the daily gifts bestowed on me, I need quiet, not necessarily a quiet house, but a quiet heart. I am trying. I really am, but it is so hard right now admist the chaos of my days. I just say to myself, I can do this, day by day. It will get easier--hopefully.
It must be a learned skill, this finding peace and quiet of the heart---I'll keep trying.
Now for some of this weeks gifts:
#6 Becky calling from work, just to check in while on her break. I in turn, call my mom, just to check in. All things are better after talking to Mom.
#7 Icicles dripping from the eaves. You can hear springtime trying to show itself--to let us know it will arrive. We just need to be patient.
#8 Eight children home for dinner, laughing like the best friends they are....arguing like the best friends they are.

RK Gun Show Employee Expects Boost in Show Attendance
Related Story
BOONE COUNTY - Dealers setting up tables at the RK Gun Show at the Central Missouri Event Center Friday told KOMU 8 News they expect an increase in attendance following a year filled with gun violence.
Dennis Pearson, RK Gun Show manager, estimated a 40 percent boost in attendance. He attributes the expected increase to increased political discussion about gun control following a year filled with gun violence.
When asked if gun control is normally on the minds of attendees to gun shows, Pearson said, "Normally, it's not something people think of. But with events taking place over the past few weeks, I think it will be on people's minds."
Many dealers setting up for the event told KOMU 8 News they attribute high attendance at recent gun shows to the possibility of gun laws soon becoming more strict. It appears as the debate over gun control intensifies, so does the sale of guns.
KOMU 8 News found shortly after the Sandy Hook shooting many gun stores in the Columbia area was wiped clean of the AR 15 semi-automatic gun.
There is no sales tax on guns purchased at shows such as the RK gun show. Additionally, licensed gun dealers require background checks on any person purchasing a gun. Unlicensed dealers are not required to do a background check. However, dealers explained, unlicensed dealers will often bring their customers to a licensed dealer's table to go through an official check before completing the sale.
The event takes place Friday from 5 p.m. to 9 p.m., Saturday 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., and Sunday 9 a.m. to 3 p.m.
Tickets are $7 per person each day, or you can purchase a weekend pass for $10.
