No upcoming film from 2011 has movie nerds more stoked that Terrence Malick's "Tree of Life," which stars Brad Pitt, Jessica Chastain and Sean Penn. We've already been treated to a stunningly gorgeous trailer, and now we've got a giant bucket of stills.
The photos come from the Russian film site KinoPoisk, by way of Film Stage, and show Pitt, Chastain, Penn and what is presumably the titular "tree."
U.S. & World
Here's the official synopsis:
From Terrence Malick, the acclaimed director of such classic films as "Badlands," "Days of Heaven" and "The Thin Red Line," "The Tree of Life" is the impressionistic story of a Midwestern family in the 1950′s. The film follows the life journey of the eldest son, Jack, through the innocence of childhood to his disillusioned adult years as he tries to reconcile a complicated relationship with his father (Brad Pitt). Jack (played as an adult by Sean Penn) finds himself a lost soul in the modern world, seeking answers to the origins and meaning of life while questioning the existence of faith. Through Malick's signature imagery, we see how both brute nature and spiritual grace shape not only our lives as individuals and families, but all life.
The film opens May 27, and we'd be remiss if we didn't remind you yet again, it's got dinosaurs!

Steakcraft: Marble Lane's Southwestern Steaks
Behind the scenes of New York's premium dry-aged steaks. An in-depth look at the aging, cooking, and presentation of New York's premium dry-aged steaks from beef expert Nick Solares.
I am always on the lookout for unique steak preparations to feature on Steakcraft, and I found three at Marble Lane in the Dream Hotel. In all three cases, the dish starts off with USDA Prime beef, dry aged for 28 days and infused with the flavors from Mexico and the American Southwest.
A dry aged, Bone-in Filet ($48; unfortunately, a rarity in this town) is described as being served "churasco" style with haricots verts, roasted cauliflower, and a vibrant chimichurri. The New York Strip ($45) is evocative of carne asada, and is grilled (the other steaks are broiled), adding a smokiness often associated with outdoor cooking. It comes on a bed of poblano peppers and cippolini onion with a fresh pico de gallo atop—a good balance between heat and sweetness.
The Cowboy Bone-in Rib Steak ($59) is rubbed with a fiery dry rub of ancho and chipotle chilies, and is served with lemon butter and roasted garlic. It could possibly be Marble Lane's answer to Smith and Wollensky's famous Cajun rib steak.
I returned to the kitchen to see how these steaks are made. Take a look through the slideshow to see how they're brought to the table.

The latest Carnival of Genealogy, hosted by Jasia at Creative Gene calls for stories about living relative connections. All of us know how valuable family networking can be to obtain additional data, stories, and photographs to supplement our research, but also to satisfy our intense curiosity, which we all have or we wouldn't be doing this, now would we?
Most of my discoveries came a few short years ago, when I began to seek out and document the history of my mother's side of the family: the Johnsons. That journey eventually took me to nearly all points of the compass.
With a name like "Johnson" - where does one begin?
I wrote my first letter of inquiry to an older cousin who revealed my great grandfather's Norwegian surname, which was a start. But, in itself, the info did not lead anywhere without also learning to use the Norwegian census, Digitalarkivet, and other genealogical databases, including immigration records.
My mother was raised by her grandparents, and I learned that her grandfather, Ole Martin Johnson (my great grandfather) also had a full sister and eight half-siblings that I hadn't been aware of. The central figure in this family was, of course, the mother of all of them: Thibertine (Bertina) Johnson Winje.
What's In a Name?
The thing to remember about Norwegian ancestors is that a surname can be deceptive. One really needs to get a handle on the location of origin, right down to the farm. Often, this means finding church or immigration records first. If the location of origin is not certain, then research can literally run in circles. Fortunately, early Norwegians also identified themselves by their farm name, which was often tacked on to a patronymic surname. In the case of Ole Johnson's mother, her maiden name was Thibertine Olsdatter Lassemo. "Olsdatter" meant that she was the daughter of a man who also went by the name of Ole, and "Lassemo" referred to the farm in Grong, Nord Trondelag where she lived.
I am thinking of one cousin (who shall remain anonymous) who took his wife on a long awaited vacation to Norway, only to spend a large amount of time walking through cemeteries near the old homelands searching for ancestors by hunting down "Johnson" or "Larson" surnames among the higgledy-piggledy rows of worn tombstones. Ack! If only he had known back then...
Patronymic naming practices make it impossible to go by surname alone, or what you get is a collection of hundreds of unrelated "John's son," or "Lars' son." Fortunately, Cousin stopped his cemetery cavorting after his long-suffering wife threatened divorce and exclaimed, "I won't go back to Norway!" He came away from the trip with his marriage still intact, and an intimate impression of lovely old Norwegian cemeteries, especially, how tiny the plots all seemed...
For more detailed information on navigating the maize of Norwegian surnames, see Norwegian Naming Practices.
The Immediate Family of Thibertine Johnson Winje
Baard Johnson & Thibertine Olsdatter Lassemo
married 1860, Grong Parish, Nord Trondelag, Norway
Two offspring:
Ole Martin Baardsen, born 1860, Grong, Nord Trondelag, Norway
(ten children) [1]
Ellen Julie (Julia) Baardsdatter, born 1862, Grong, Nord Trondelag, Norway
(seven children) [2]
Eric Larsen Winje & Thibertine Olsdatter Johnson
married 1874, Chippewa County, Minnesota, USA
Eight Offspring:
Berthe Regine (Regina) Winje (Strand), born 1873, Chippewa CO, MN
(five surviving children)
Louis Peter Winje, born 1874, Chippewa CO, MN
(no children)
Lena Marie Winje, born 1876, Chippewa CO, MN
(no children)
Emma M. Winje, born 1877, Chippewa CO, MN
(died as an infant: 1877 or 1878)
Emma Thalette Winje, born 1879, Chippewa CO, MN
(no children)
Edward Theodore Winje, born 1881, Chippewa CO, MN
(two children)
Hattie Christine Winje, born 1883, Chippewa CO, MN
(died 1888, in Duluth, MN)
Annie Jorgene Winje, born 1885, Chippewa CO, MN
(died 1888, in Duluth, MN
In the quest for information about my great grandfather's family, I found that his mother, Thibertine Johnson, re-married and bore eight children with her second husband, Eric Winje. Five of the Winje children preceeded their parents in death, and out of eight, only two had children of their own. I knew there had to be Winje descendants out there, "somewhere in Canada." The goal was to find descendants of Edward Theodore Winje, who emigrated to Saskatchewan in the 1890s by way of North Dakota, and descendants of Regina Winje Strand, who were likely still in Minnesota.
Tracking down the Winje branch of the family involved mostly luck. I discovered an online death index for British Columbia, so I started there. Fortunately, the name "Winje" is somewhat unique, and B.C. turned out to be the correct province--what are the odds of that? I located Edward Theodore Winje, who had died in Nelson, B.C., and an Eric Winje (a namesake of Edward's father), who lived nearby in Slocan, according to the telephone directory. I took a chance and wrote a letter, and the hunch turned out to be correct.
After decades of no communication, the Winjes and the Johnsons were reunited. A cousin and I visited the Winjes for the first time in 2004: Karna Franche, Lori Moore, Abbie Winje, and their spouses (see We'll Miss You, Karna, my blog posting for 9/25/07). Without that Winje family connection, I would not have a third of the information I do for the family history book I am about to publish.
I tracked down the Strand branch of the Winje family by pretty much the same method: 1) gather as much information about names, dates, and places from known cousins, 2) check the death indexes and white pages for potential relatives in locations of interest, and 3) narrow down the choices and take a chance and write a letter or call. Doing this put me into contact with a grandson of Regina Winje Strand.
Don't Forget Connections With Old Family Friends
Perhaps my most important connection in regards to gathering historical documents was not made through contacting unknown living relatives, but with the descendants of friends of the Winje ancestors. According to the Winjes in British Columbia, the first family immigrant, Lars Eriksen Winje, came from a village with a similar name in Sor Trondelag, Norway. In Norwegian, the letter "w" is somewhat interchangeable with "v." The Winjes emigrated from Vinjeora, Hemne, Sor Trondelag.
I discovered that someone had put together a website in order to gather genealogical data for the area surrounding Hemne. Miraculously, the website contained an article written about the Winjes' emigration to America from Vinjeora in 1869: EN UTVANDRERFAMILIE FRA VINJEØRA i 1869.
But... it was in Norwegian, and I'd had only one beginning class in the language. What to do?
I e-mailed the webmaster for Hemneslekt.net and asked if he had any information on the author of the article, Markus Wessel. Fortunately, the webmaster was fluent in English and put me in contact with Wessel's daughter, since Wessel himself was no longer living. Astri was kind enough to e-mail and inform me that her family still had some original letters mailed by the Winjes, dating as early as 1869. Oh, my goodness! Primary documents are akin to buried treasure, and I was so excited at this point that I could hardly stand it. The letters came, and afterwards came my quest to get them translated. At this point, I have found assistance in translating not only Markus Wessel's online article about the emigration of the Winje family, but most of the letters.
Through the quest to make connections with living relatives, I have found that most people are excited to help and anxious to relate bits and pieces of information and stories passed down to them. Some of my cousins went all out to make sure that I obtained access to books, albums, and copies of rare photographs and documents. In the past few years, I have met many wonderful people who I am proud to count among my cousins and family friends. Tusen takk to them!
Who's in your family's living treasure chest?
[1] and [2] The patronymic naming practices of early Norway meant that a child's surname reflected who the father was. In the case of Baard Johnson, his children were: Ole Baardsen (Baard's son), and Ellen Julie Baardsdatter (Baard's daughter).

I enjoyed your article very much. You've done a marvelous job of sorting is all out. I don't have a Johnson surname (so far) in my family tree, but the Smith, Brown, Long lines are enough to drive me crazy.
Keep writing!

Rise Above: Robert Gesink's Climb to Victory
Giro 'Empire'
The Finish Line
It must be strange that after living so closely with eight other riders, and a nucleated support staff for the three weeks, the riders will leave this environment and return to some semblance of reality, whatever that may actually entail for a professional rider. I see happy faces, a Cofidis rider beams at me proudly on a backstreet as he rides to his hotel. I spy Mick Rogers, as he congratulates several riders ahead of the processional laps. He looks across and I offer him my broadest smile, as if telepathically thanking him and the peloton for their feats that fed my passion as a cycling fan this summer. I don't doubt I just looked like a grinning loon, but my respect for these gents is fortified every time I see their suffering in real and tangible sphere. They are but humans, with emotions, pain, a willingness to push their own boundaries of suffering.
A day before in Chartres, I find myself mingling with fans as Alexandr Vinokourov rolls through. A loud cheer erupts in recognition for what will certainly be his last tour. A chequered past foreshadows him, sure, but the respect shown from the fans is palpable and deafening. Every story needs hero's and villains, and the tour is a theatre not exempt from this.
I see faces that display the realisation dawning on them of their endeavours. I see pride, relief and I sense determination. I think I see faces that are already thinking to the next goal. The next hit of this circus.
The finish line is always such a melancholy place for me, tinged with sadness that its over for the next year. Sure enough, there's the Vuelta, and a slurry of late season races (Lombardia in particular is a fave) but it just seems like nothing can quite capture the magic of pro cycling like the Tour can. I remember 5 years ago being laughed out of the office for asking to watch the tour at my workplace, this year I walked in to pretty much every flatscreen dialled onto the live coverage daily. Oh how times change! Here's to the 100th Tour de France in 2013… I know I will be ensconced in your bubble yet again

As part of our neverending mission to tell you what video game is now turning left four times at 100 mph
on Saturday tonight, let's check in with Joey Logano and the No. 20 GameStop Toyota.
GameStop, which has a 21-race sponsorship deal with the NASCAR driver in the lower-run Nationwide Series, put Split/Second on Logano's hood for something called the Bubba Burger 250
tomorrow tonight (dangit) at Richmond International Raceway. Split/Second is actually something Logano has played.
"You have to use real racing skills like drafting, just like you do on the track most weekends," Logano said, "but then you also have to think about planning a strategy to wreck the other cars and the courses so you can win." Just like you do on the track most weekends, amirite?
Logano opened the series with a seventh place finish at Daytona (that's not the 500, btw), with BioShock 2 on his hood, then took the pole but finished fifth with Mario Kart Wiion the lid.
Tomorrow's race is 7:45 p.m. Eastern on ESPN2, if that's your thing. Whoops, this sucker ran tonight. Too late. Brad Keselowski won. Joey finished 6th. Goshdangit!

According to wikipedia:
A segmentation fault occurs when a program attempts to access a memory location that it is not allowed to access, or attempts to access a memory location in a way that is not allowed (for example, attempting to write to a read-only location, or to overwrite part of the operating system).
Usually signal #11 (SIGSEGV) set, which is defined in the header file signal.h file. The default action for a program upon receiving SIGSEGV is abnormal termination. This action will end the process, but may generate a core file (also known as core dump) to aid debugging, or perform some other platform-dependent action. A core dump is the recorded state of the working memory of a computer program at a specific time, generally when the program has terminated abnormally.
Segmentation fault can also occur under following circumstances:
a) A buggy program / command, which can be only fixed by applying patch.
b) It can also appear when you try to access an array beyond the end of an array under C programming.
c) Inside a chrooted jail this can occur when critical shared libs, config file or /dev/ entry missing.
d) Sometime hardware or faulty memory or driver can also create problem.
e) Maintain suggested environment for all computer equipment (overheating can also generate this problem).
Suggestions to debug Segmentation Fault errors
To debug this kind of error try one or all of the following techniques :
- Use gdb to track exact source of problem.
- Make sure correct hardware installed and configured.
- Always apply all patches and use updated system.
- Make sure all dependencies installed inside jail.
- Turn on core dumping for supported services such as Apache.
- Use strace which is a useful diagnostic, instructional, and debugging tool.
- Google and find out if there is a solution to problem.
- Fix your C program for logical errors such as pointer, null pointer, arrays and so on.
- Analyze core dump file generated by your system using gdb

DWTS 15 All-Star Season Music Suggestions & Wish List
So we're at t-minus 2 weeks until the premiere, and of course, we're all curious about what songs we might hear this season. Since we don't plan to reveal any potential song spoilers until just before the premiere (stay tuned ;-)), we thought we'd take this opportunity to share some of our picks for music we'd like to see on the show – as well as a few songs some of our readers suggested on Twitter. I'll try to update the list with songs you guys suggest, but I can't make any guarantees. Life gets busy 😛 But make your picks good ones, because you never know who might be taking a gander at this list, looking for inspiration 😉
Court's picks:
"Sunglasses at Night" – Corey Hart – This has been my "OMG, I'll pee my pants if they actually use this!" song pick since Guilty Pleasures week in season 12. I am DYING to see someone (perhaps Joey or Drew) do a paso doble to this, complete with dark sunglasses and a big dose of tongue-in-cheek humor. The cheese factor would be through the roof!
"It's Not Unusual" – Tom Jones This song just BEGS for a Carlton Banks-esque quickstep from Mark. BONUS: It would probably embarass the bejeesus out of Bristol in the process. 🙂
"I'd Rather Go Blind" – Etta James With Etta's passing earlier this year, I find myself with a new appreciation for her music – and I think this would make a GORGEOUS Viennese waltz.
"Good Time" – Owl City feat. Carly Rae Jepsen A totally fun, guilty pleasure song – I could see them using it for a team cha-cha or cha-cha relay.
"Cinema (Skrillex Mix)" – Benny Benassi I realize that, between AGT & SYTYCD, this song has gotten pretty overused this summer – but in both instances, it's been used for a hip-hop routine. But I'd like to see what some of our pros could do with it – this has a Derek or Mark freestyle written all over it.
Heidi's picks:
"Swallowed by the Night" – The Floating MenMy favorite Nashville band of all time. Alternative, acoustic and entertaining as hell. This sounds like a quickstep to me, but I could be wrong.
"Goody Two Shoes" – Adam Ant Kick someone's ass as a jive. Someone like Bristol. 😉 *snerk*
"Come Dancing" – The Kinks The Kinks just make me laugh.
"Hella Good" – No DoubtReally, anything by No Doubt. I got into them thanks to the TV show Alias – loved it.
"Slow Down" – Brian Setzer Because I said so. 🙂
Vogue's picks:
"Give Me All Your Luvin'" – Madonna feat. Nicki Minaj & MIA Wow, what a Dancing With The Stars show stopper this could be if this song was done for a pro number with ALL the pros and the troupe.
"Finally Found You" – Enrique Iglesias – I'm hoping Enrique will come back for another song performance with the pros dancing to this new song. He's such a great supporter of the show.
"Partynauseous" – Kendrick Lamar feat. Lady Gaga – This new single is yet to be released, but, you just know it's going to make a strong showing. I'd like to see what Derek and Shawn could create for it.
"Masterpiece" – Madonna Sorry to add another Madonna song, but, this just can't be helped. "Masterpiece" was the theme song for Madonna's movie last year called "W.E.". It won a Golden Globe Award this year for "Best Original song" and she's currently singing it on tour. It is truly one of Madonna's best ballads to date (and I didn't think she could ever top "I'll Remember"). It would make such a touching song for a slow waltz and sure to melt hearts if done right.
"Una Musica Brutal" – Gotan Project I love any and all songs by the Gotan Project. You might remember Peta and Donald doing a Tango to "Santa Maria" last season. Well, "Una Musica Brutal" would be another winner for a show stopping Tango. I'd love to see it.
Lori's picks:
"Come Wake Me Up" – Rascal FlattsSince the first time I heard it, I've been wanting to see a Viennese waltz to this song, because it just seems to be SCREAMING out to me, that it needs some waltz choreography. It already seems to have the 1 2 3 and the rise and fall that's needed…
"Wanted" – Hunter HayesThis YOUNG kid is an amazing artist…he's only 20, and for his debut album, he wrote all of the songs, sang every part in every song, and played every instrument on the entire album. Long process to lay each track separately. This song is beautiful, and a nice slow rumba song (I think) and I just like the song!
"Another Brick in the Wall" – Pink FloydI love the conflict between the teacher and the students, and the mind control aspect….
"Gangnam Style" – PSYIt's catchy and quirky, and a very fun song.
John's picks:
NOTE: John sustained some kind of neck injury & is currently bedridden (#getbettersoon @techguy) so he was only able to come up with one song. He gave me carte blanche to pick some others for him…but let's just say he should thank his lucky stars I didn't, because if I had to guess what kind of music John listens to, this would be my first guess. 😉 -Court-
"Because of You" – Kelly Clarkson & Reba McEntireI'd love to see them dance to this song…although the band might slaughter it 🙂
Reader picks:
"I Won't Give Up" – Jason Mraz
"Lights" – Ellie Goulding
"Super Bass" – Nicki Minaj
"Give Your Heart a Break" – Demi Lovato
"One More Night" – Maroon 5
"Someone to Watch Over Me" – Ella Fitzgerald

Championship Coach Leads Deaf Football Teams to Victory
Players compete vs. deaf and hearing opponents, communicate with sign language.
Oct. 2, 2009 -- The Orioles football team is 4-1 this season -- not unusual for a team coached by Andy Bonheyo. In his 24 year career, coach Bonheyo has won 170 games and lost just 48. And most of those wins have been against teams who can hear.
Bonheyo and his players are deaf.
"I don't look at whether we're playing a hearing or a deaf team. I look at the team. So to me I don't think I have an advantage over anyone except the teams who aren't prepared to play us," said Bonheyo.
Coaching at three different schools, Bonheyo has won the National Deaf Prep Championship 15 times -- seven at the Maryland School for the Deaf, where he is currently the head football coach, assistant track and field coach, and is also the athletic director.
"It is true that I am a perfectionist. I like to see our plays perfect and that's just me, that's who I am," he said.
Good thing he's such a stickler for details. The football program at Maryland had a losing record before Bonheyo's arrival.
"Coach Andy, he's pushed me a lot harder," said player Brandon Williams. "He pushes me harder than I think my limits are."
The team plays an average of 10 games each year, three of them against other deaf teams.
The team had two long winning streaks, one from 2002 to 2005, when it won 27 games in a row, and one from 2005 to 2008, when it won 34.
But as good as the team is, there are some adjustments that have to be made.
"I don't think we do anything much different than other teams do. We just call the plays in sign language. The quarterback will tap the center and that's when the ball will be snapped," Bonheyo said.
And those snaps can be an advantage.
"When I call plays, they don't understand us," said Bonheyo's son Todd who plays quarterback. "Our snap, they can't predict -- our snap count."
But coach Bonheyo does have some frustrations.
"The huge disadvantage at games [is that] the opposing coach can wear headsets and they have coaches standing above that they can communicate with," Bonheyo said. "They can see our weaknesses and they can tell the coach on the field which play to use."
The NFL Congratulates Coach's Success
Bonheyo's talents were recognized this summer when he was invited to represent the state of Maryland at the NFL's High School Coaches Summit. He was the first deaf coach ever invited. Legendary NFL coach Dick Vermeil congratulated Bonheyo for his success, and Bonheyo's team recently was featured in a Toyota ad campaign that aired during NFL games.
But Bonheyo remains steadfastly modest.
"It's wonderful to be a success, but I want to give credit to other people," he said. "Because I'm not the only one who made all this success possible.
"Some of our students come from broken homes," Bonheyo said. "Some of them don't have communications at home. Their parents can't sign. ... When they do well on the field or on the court, it's very inspiring for us. ... The increase in their self esteem just knowing they feel good about themselves is outstanding."
For this coach, it's all about the kids.

Hello dear friends!
This morning, during my usual morning swim, I saw a small school of dolphins swimming outside the ocean pool I go to. It was the most perfect start for the day and certainly brought a big smile to my face. It's the small things like this that make life so beautiful!
We've had a few nippy mornings here in Sydney and I absolutely love it. Walking to the pool in the morning or going for a morning run feels so much nicer and the air is crisp and clean. Warming foods are back on the menu too, this soup being a perfect example. I adore kale, I'm sure you know that by now, and it is just so delicious in soups, stews, salads, you name it.
This soup was inspired by the beautiful Colleen, who by the way, so kindly read my "love letter" to her on her most recent podcast episode. I was really honoured to hear that, especially since Colleen's podcasts were the reason why I decided to go vegan.
A few notes on the recipe - if you can't find freekeh, try using rye grain (rye groats) or even brown rice instead. In addition, I would really recommend using some of the 'tougher' green leafy vegetables (kale or chard, for instance) as the texture will be much nicer and not too soft. Add any other vegetables you may have - celeriac and parsnip would be great.
Kale and Freekeh Soup
(serves 4)
200g wholegrain freekeh, cooked until tender
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
1 yellow onion, finely chopped
2-3 garlic cloves, finely chopped
3 carrots, chopped
1 bunch kale, chopped
2-3 litres vegetable stock
salt and pepper to taste
1. Heat oil in a large pot, add onion, garlic and carrots and cook for a few minutes.
2. Add kale and vegetable stock (start with 2 litres, add more if necessary) and bring to a boil. Simmer for about 20 minutes or until the vegetables are tender.
3. Finally, add cooked freekeh to the soup and season with salt and pepper.Turn off the heat and serve.

After sitting out Opening Day, Gomes gets start
BALTIMORE -- Though Wednesday was the second game for the Red Sox, it was Opening Night for Jonny Gomes, who got the start in left field due in part to his strong history against Orioles righty Ubaldo Jimenez.
Gomes entered the game 5-for-12 lifetime against Jimenez with two homers and five RBIs.
"It's exciting," said Gomes. "The other day wasn't my turn, and that's fine. I like to be in there, win or loss to try to affect the game. It will be nice and I'll go out there and give it my all."
Though Gomes will likely get most of his starts against lefties this season, manager John Farrell will keep an eye on good matchups against righties.
With Shane Victorino on the disabled list, Gomes might get some more opportunities early in the season.
"This is my second year here, and it's pretty impressive how deep this organization is all the way down to the Minors," said Gomes. "From what we did last year, I think there's not really a stat for it, but how well we hid injuries last year -- when you're talking David Ortiz going down in the beginning, Stephen Drew, David Ross, Vic for a minute, [Jacoby Ellsbury] for a while. We truly did hide injuries pretty well last year. Hopefully we can copy that this year when some of these starters go down."

American astronaut Neil Armstrong, the first man to walk on the moon, will be laid to rest during a private service in Ohio on Friday, NASA said on Monday. U.S. President Barack Obama has ordered American flags to be flown at half-staff on that day.
A NASA spokesperson said Armstrong, who is from the city of Wapakoneta in Ohio, will be laid to rest during a private, family memorial service in Cincinnati on Friday. Other details were not immediately released, although a number of officials, including U.S. Senator Rob Portman, are expected to attend.
Also on Monday, U.S. President Barack Obama signed a proclamation ordering the flag of the United States to be flown at half-staff on Friday. Ohio Governor John Kasich, meanwhile, ordered flags in the state to be flown at half-staff from Monday through Friday for the Ohio native.
"As a mark of respect for the memory of Neil Armstrong, I hereby order, by the authority vested in me by the Constitution and the laws of the United States of America, that on the day of his interment, the flag of the United States shall be flown at half-staff at the White House and upon all public buildings and grounds," Obama said in the proclamation. U.S. flags will also be flown at half-staff at military posts, naval stations, U.S. embassies, ships and consular offices.
Armstrong served as commander during the Apollo 11 mission, the first manned lunar landing mission, in July 1969. He immediately rose to fame around the world for being the first man to land a craft on the moon and then the first man to step on its surface, after which he and fellow astronaut Buzz Aldrin explored it for over two hours.
People from around the world gathered around their television sets to watch coverage of the moon landing and to hear Armstrong's famous words as he stepped onto the moon's surface. "That is one small step for (a) man, one giant leap for mankind," Armstrong said on July 20, 1969, as he became a part of history.
Armstrong died at a hospital in Ohio on Saturday afternoon as a result of complications from cardiovascular procedures. He had underwent surgery due to blocked coronary arteries earlier this month, just days after celebrating his 82nd birthday. It is not yet known if a national memorial service will be held for Armstrong, who often shunned publicity.
On Saturday, the family made a simple request for those who want to honor Armstrong. "Honor his example of service, accomplishment and modesty, and the next time you walk outside on a clear night and see the moon smiling down at you, think of Neil Armstrong and give him a wink," a family statement said.

Book Report Alternative: Character and Author Business Cards
|6 – 8

|Standard Lesson
|Estimated Time
|Two 50-minute sessions
|Lesson Author
Blacksburg, Virginia
In this alternative to the traditional book report, students have to really understand a character from a book they have read in order to successfully communicate the essence of the character using a few words and symbols on a business card. They begin by discussing the details commonly found on business cards and looking at samples. They think about how font, colors, and logos can be used to represent their characters, as well as the taglines, products and services, and other details that could be included. Students then use planning sheets to think through the elements they want to include on their business cards before creating the final version using a word processing program on the computer. Final copies of the business cards can be exchanged among students and given to the librarian for display.
Planning Sheet for Business Card Book Reports: Have students use this guide to think through the elements on their characters' business cards before using the computer to design the final version.
Rubric for Business Card Book Reports: Use this rubric to assess students' business cards.
In describing this activity, Gretchen Lee states "I like this activity because it forces the
students to think symbolically" (28). The students choose a font for their character or author, find icons or images for the character or author, and compose related text. These student representations of the character or author with their multifaceted texts using color, symbols, images, texts, and metaphor succeed in the classroom because they provide a snapshot of the students' comprehension of the ideas in the texts in a very concise form.

Despite temperatures well below freezing, Antarctica's Deep Lake remains unfrozen thanks to its extremely high salt content. The lake was isolated from the oceans about 3,500 years ago, when the continent lifted up around it. As inhospitable territory goes, this is pretty high on the list, a lake both colder and more saline than most living things can survive.
The extremophiles that inhabit these waters belong to a group called haloarchaea, microbes that actually require high salt concentrations. A team of Australian and American scientists who set out to study the genetic diversity of the lake's microbes discovered that the haloarchaea have responded to their extreme environment with extremely high rates of genetic exchange with other species, even other genera. The microbes use horizontal gene transfer—passing sections of genetic code to one another—to rapidly adopt any changes that help them adapt to this harsh environment.
They found four distinct genera had adapted to life in the lake in different ways. Despite their overall genetic differences, these regions had been sharing a lot of DNA. Long regions appear to be swapped whole, a phenomenon never before observed in a natural environment, scientist Rick Cavicchioli, a professor at the University of New South Wales, said.
What surprised Cavicchioli and his colleagues was that despite this high rate of gene sharing, the lake maintained distinct species instead of evolving into one homogenous ecosystem with a single dominant species. Ecologically, the species had developed different niches, using different food sources and different parts of the lake habitat.
The lake is so cold that it's the most unproductive lake in the world—very little energy is available for the haloarchaea, so they metabolize and reproduce very slowly compared to their relatives in other environments. One of the Deep Lake species produces about six generations a year. That's about 100-fold less than haloarchaea species observed in acidic environments created by mine drainage, for example.
The high level of gene sharing might be an adaptation to maintain diversity under slow reproductive conditions (though all haloarchaea swap DNA to some degree). "This is the only cold hypersaline system that has been studied, so we don't know about others," Cavicchioli said in an e-mail. "On my coming expedition (leaving in a few weeks) we will take samples from other lakes that might have similar communities."
Understanding how haloarchaea are able to survive and thrive under the extreme salt and cold could have practical applications, Cacicchoil said. Their enzymes could conceivably be put to work cleaning up hazardous waste at sites in cold climate or put to use in temperature-sensitive industrial processes.

Canadian Museums Day
Please click here for photos of this amazing event.
Watch a video recap and check out a collection of posts shared on social media.
Museums Storm Parliament Hill, What a Great Day!
On January 25th and 26th 2017, Canadian Museums Association (CMA) members gathered in Ottawa to put museums on the radar of decision makers in the new federal government as well as opposition parties. Doors opened up and ideas flowed. A record number of museum professionals met with Cabinet Ministers, Senators and Members of Parliament.
The CMA held a briefing session in advance to review key messages and to discuss how to deliver those messages to parliamentarians. Three experts advised CMA members: Joe Jordan, former Liberal Member of Parliament for Leeds-Grenville, Ont., and former Parliamentary Secretary to the Prime Minister; Patrick Robert, strategic policy adviser with Gowlings' Ottawa office in the Government Affairs Group; and, Alain Pineau, who worked for the Liberals and helped draft their election platform.
Day two was entirely devoted to meetings on Parliament Hill. Delegates were divided into teams to meet with approximately 45 parliamentarians. The event was so successful that the CMA had to close registration for the delegates who had travelled from virtually every part of Canada. The day concluded with a wonderful reception on Parliament Hill hosted by the Honourable Mélanie Joly, Minister of Canadian Heritage, and attended by well over 70 Members of Parliament and Senators. It was a "Sock Party" as guests had to remove their shoes to stand on a giant map of Canada, provided by the Royal Canadian Geographical Society, the CMA's newest partner.
Minister Joly spoke eloquently about museums and affirmed her role as a strong advocate for them. Magic to our ears! She also affirmed her intention to increase funding for Young Canada Works in the coming weeks. It was our most successful day on the Hill and a truly magical night with the participation of many young, emerging museum professionals.

GRI Standards have replaced the G4 version of the Guidelines, but they are also based in a materiality analysis process, which is the key element for sustainability management and reporting. However, GRI has tried to eliminate redundancies, simplify concepts, allow quicker and easier updates, ensure greater quality and comparability between reports and lastly, greater suitability for referencing in policy initiatives.
The application of the GRI Standards will be mandatory for all GRI sustainability reports published after July 1 2018 (earlier adoption is encouraged).
This GRI certified training provides the know-how required for creating a sustainability report based on the GRI Standards. Local examples will be used for the purpose of clarification and we will also provide recommendations that will enable you to create a top-quality sustainability report that focuses on key topics and targets your relevant stakeholders. Presentations, case studies, group activities and best practice examples will complete the training and ensure the added value of the training.
Training participants will receive an official certificate issued by GRI. BSD Consulting is the largest global GRI Certified Training Partner.

This month Stephen King released a new collection of four novellas, "Full Dark, No Stars", and Hodder & Stoughton, the publisher of the UK edition of the book, together with the film company Future Shorts made four trailers for each of the four novellas in "Full Dark, No Stars". All four of them give a wonderful sense of the Stephen King's novellas, creepy and casting a strange aura, making me very eager to read these stories. Here is the first trailer in the series, but on Hodder's website you can find links to all the four trailers made for the Stephen King's book. It has been a while since I didn't read any Stephen King, but now I believe that "Full Dark, No Stars" gives me enough reason to return to one of my favorite writers.
'I believe there is another man inside every man, a stranger...' writes Wilfred Leland James in the early pages of the riveting confession that makes up '1922', the first in this pitch-black quartet of mesmerising tales from Stephen King, linked by the theme of retribution. For James, that stranger is awakened when his wife Arlette proposes selling off the family homestead and moving to Omaha, setting in motion a gruesome train of murder and madness.
In 'Big Driver', a cozy-mystery writer named Tess encounters the stranger is along a back road in Massachusetts when she takes a shortcut home after a book-club engagement. Violated and left for dead, Tess plots a revenge that will bring her face to face with another stranger: the one inside herself.
'Fair Extension', the shortest of these tales, is perhaps the nastiest and certainly the funniest. Making a deal with the devil not only saves Harry Streeter from a fatal cancer but provides rich recompense for a lifetime of resentment.
When her husband of more than twenty years is away on one of his business trips, Darcy Anderson looks for batteries in the garage. Her toe knocks up against a box under a worktable and she discovers the stranger inside her husband. It's a horrifying discovery, rendered with bristling intensity, and it definitively ends 'A Good Marriage'.
Like DIFFERENT SEASONS and FOUR PAST MIDNIGHT, which generated such enduring hit films as The Shawshank Redemption and Stand by Me, FULL DARK, NO STARS proves Stephen King a master of the long story form.

Cabot Creamery was one of the first family farm cooperatives in Vermont, and today they are widely known for making exceptional American-style block Cheddar. Kempton Family Farm in Peacham, VT has been selected as the sole source for Clothbound, and Cabot crafts this cheese the old-world way - one vat at a time.
Once unmolded from their shaping hoops, the infant wheels are individually wrapped with muslin and brushed with lard before they undergo a ten to fourteen month maturation period. The extra care involved in curing a clothbound cheese requires a customized aging environment, with proper temperature, humidity, and airflow. The cheddar vaults at the Cellars at Jasper Hill are majestic and awe-inspiring - Cabot Clothbound is truly a monumental undertaking. A team of affineurs practice a constant cycle of care for Clothbound and the 34 pound wheels are tested, tasted, and monitored for quality during their entire life cycle. .

Description: hoot, hoot. That is what we hear when we sit out in the night air. Today we will start by drawing owl eyes, or drawing an owl face. Drawing owls are so fascinating because they are such remarkable looking birds that have their distinct appearance. I had so much fun making this owl because I haven't really made a lot of sketches or drawings on these fantastic birds. The eyes are very expressive and almost captivating which is why I'm calling the tutorial "how to draw owl eyes". I know you will eventually use what you have learned in something you create on your own. Anyways, thanks for joining me with another bird lesson, I will be back with more for you all. Peace out!

North Korea's new young leader, Kim Jon-un, may be hoping to spread a little magic over his nation of 24 million people with help from Mickey Mouse.
State-run television on Monday reportedly showed footage of the costumed characters dancing in front of Kim amid an audience of clapping generals, according to the New York Times. The newspaper reports:
The footage also showed Mr. Kim in a black Mao suit watching as Mickey Mouse conducted a group of young women playing violins in skimpy black dresses. At times, scenes from the animated Disney movies Dumbo and Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs were projected on a multipanel screen behind the entertainers; an article in the state-run press said unnamed foreign songs were on the bill.
The appearance of the characters from the United States, North Korea's enemy, was remarkable fare on tightly controlled North Korean television, which usually shows more somber and overtly political programs. A Disney spokeswoman, Zenia Mucha, had no comment Monday beyond a statement: "This was not licensed or authorized by the Walt Disney Co."
Whether the show helped brighten the mood in a communist country known for its abysmal human rights record and periodic famines and chronic malnutrition wasn't clear.
The Kim family, however, does seem to have a special affinity for Disney, according to the New York Times.
In 2001, the current leader's older brother, Kim Jong-nam, was detained by the Japanese authorities while trying to enter Japan on a Dominican Republic passport to visit Tokyo Disneyland, the paper reported.

Giuliani plans to simplify the tax code by introducing the Fair and Simple Tax (FAST) form.
Rudy's also plans to cut the corporate tax rate from 35% to 25% to keep America competitive in the global economy. In addition, the former Mayor proposes giving ending the estate tax, cutting the capital gains tax from 15% to 10%, and indexing the Alternative Minimum Tax for inflation and eventually eliminating it.
In addition, the Mayor's proposal "eliminates the double-taxation of personal saving accounts, reinstates the Research and Development Tax Credit and makes the current Bush tax cuts permanent".
Simplifying the tax code is good, as is a "Fair and Simple" Tax. But I doubt that he can "preserve the major deductions" and the Bush tax cuts and fit everything on one page. And what is with "give American taxpayers the option"? Is he talking about the same plan that a fellow Republican candidate proposed – giving us the option of calculating our tax liability by using a new simple tax system or continuing to use the current complicated one? Wait – it sounds like the Taxpayer's Choice plan I discussed in my posting "VERRRRY INTERESTING…..". Again I ask – why give us a choice. Just simplify the code and have everyone use that method!
Reducing corporate tax rates is a popular notion – but instead why not create a "dividends paid deduction" for corporations as I had suggested.
What "double-taxation of personal saving accounts"? Interest paid on savings accounts are not taxed twice – unless I am missing something. Does he mean the double-taxation of corporate dividends? If so – again I refer you to the corporate "dividends paid deduction".
I certainly support the ultimate elimination of the AMT – the sooner the better. And I would also support the death of the estate tax – if it allowed for a continuation of "stepped-up" basis on inherited property.
The only question is how would Rudy make up the $2-$3 Trillion in lost government revenue estimated in a review of the plan in US News and World Report's CAPITAL COMMERCE blog? Giuliani said he would explain in coming weeks how he will pay for the tax cuts. Word is his plan will include a 5 to 10 percent reduction in spending at federal agencies, including staff reductions.
Or, as Rudy says, they may just pay for themselves! Granted that lowering capital gain rates historically has increased income, but $2 Trillion?
The above details of the Giuliani "tax plan" are taken from his own press release and various internet reportings. I have not read any detailed "position paper" on the proposals.
While the plan has hints of some good ideas, like the proposals of fellow candidates from both parties it looks like no real thought has gone into this tax plan. If anything he has latched onto someone else's proposal, like Huckabee with the "Fair Tax" national sales tax. Rudy is just following the pack and saying what he thinks voters want to hear.

Aaryn Gries, who made racial and anti-gay slurs against fellow houseguests, was evicted from the "Big Brother" house Thursday night and was grilled by host Julie Chen.
According to early numbers from Nielsen, which are likely to change because of NFL pre-season preemptions that affected much of the country, the live eviction episode on CBS drew 8.36 million viewers and garnered a rating of 2.6 in the key 18-49 demographic.
If the numbers hold, "Big Brother" was the most watched and highest rated telecast of the night among the big networks.
"Big Brother's" 18-49 rating increased 24% from last week, according to the early stats, which are likely to be adjusted downward later.
On NBC, "Hollywood Game Night" brought in 4.7 million viewers and generated a key demo rating of 1.5, up 25% from last week.
ABC's two-hour season finale of "Motive" drew 6.38 million viewers and got a 1.4 rating, up 40% week-to-week. "Rookie Blue" increased 36% to a 1.5.
Fox was in all repeats.

The Miu Miu Fall/Winter 2012/2013 ad campaign stars Chloë Sevigny, who previously featured for Miu Miu in the Spring/Summer 1996 ad campaign. This also marks the third straight ad campaign that Miu Miu has used celebrities instead of models; first with the controversial Hailee Steifeld campaign for Fall/Winter 2011/2012.
Photographed by Mert and Marcus, the ever edgy Chloë Sevigny wears similar eye makeup to the runway show where pantsuits that came in stripes, checks and prints were the main highlights. Styling was done by Katie Grand and featured loud pops of colour that make this a quirky and light-hearted campaign much like their previous one for Spring/Summer 2012.
Check out the the full Miu Miu Fall/Winter 2012/2013 Ad Campaign featuring Chloë Sevigny below.

In an interview with Bloomberg TV, Republican National Chair Reince Priebus countered his Democratic counterpart with a positive spin for Republicans on the Iowa caucuses.
Priebus' point was simple, but very well taken: It shouldn't be a cause for concern that Republicans haven't yet overwhelmingly settled on a nominee — because tough primaries just strengthen the eventual candidate.
"It is a process," he said. "It is a primary. This is not unusual on both sides of the aisle for that matter. As far as the RNC is concerned, we have a lot to be excited about today. We have voter registration. We are outpacing the Democrats 2-to-1 in Iowa. We had the biggest record turnout last night in the Iowa caucus – over 123,000. While that may not sound like a lot of people, that's a lot of people for an Iowa caucus. That's a record. Those are the things I am focused on. That is what we have to do in connecting the dots and making sure we help save this country from a president that has underperformed."
That sheds a little more light on Debbie Wasserman Schultz' claim that last night was a "great night" for Democrats. The record turnout alone serves as a potent reminder that Republicans are excited to pick someone to challenge Obama. Meanwhile, on the Democrat side, folks are so disenchanted that they're still clamoring for a Clinton-Biden swap on the Obama ticket.
