Snow coats roads and closes schools
This is the day that many people have been waiting for since March 8, when the last measurable snowfall fell over the region.
For others, there was a deep sigh Tuesday morning and a sense of "here we go again.''
Heavy, wet snow began falling in southwestern Connecticut at 7:30 a.m., and soon it was sticking to the grass and coating the roads.
But the timing of the brunt of the storm -- at the end of the morning commute and before the evening exodus began -- minimized the impact on traffic.
The National Weather Service issued a winter weather advisory for the region, calling for 2 to 5 inches of snow over a widespread area, with the heaviest snow along the coast and the possibility of higher amounts where heavy snow banding occurs.
Schools were closed in advance of the storm in Ansonia, Bethel, Brookfield, Danbury, Darien, Derby, Easton, Greenwich, Monroe, New Canaan, New Milford, Newtown, Norwalk, Oxford, Redding, Ridgefield, Seymour, Shelton, Trumbull and Westport.
Parochial schools in the Diocese of Bridgeport including St. Joseph in Trumbull and state technical high schools including Bullard-Havens in Bridgeport were also closed. Several private schools including Greens Farms Academy in Westport and Christian Heritage in Trumbull also decided not to hold classes on Tuesday.
A few area school districts, including Milford, opted for early dismissal instead.
Metro-North Railroad advised patrons that platforms and ramps could be slick and to use caution boarding and exiting trains.
State Police had reported 45 accidents by 9 a.m., due to slippery roads and bridges, with the bulk of the storm still to come.
The National Weather Service reported that Bridgeport had received 1.5 inches of snow by 1 p.m., when the storm had tapered off.
Temperatures were still above freezing when the snow started falling; it was 36 degrees in Bridgeport at 7 a.m. WTNH meteorologist Gil Simmons said that the heaviest snow would fall between 10 a.m. and 3 p.m.
The Storm Prediction Center was calling for snowfall rates of an inch or more an hour, especially along and southeast of I-84, forecaster Quincy Vagell said.

It all began with a stone, or so the legend says.In ages past, a sentient jewel, enormous and beautiful, banished the darkness. Its many-colored light filled the world with life and brought forth mighty gods.Bathed in that light, the world entered an age of bliss until, after a time, the gods fell into slumber. That world was called Vana'diel.The legend goes on to say... From the darkest depths of the earth the Warriors of the Crystal rose...The great bane will devour the fair land of Vana'diel.The ancient seal will be broken, awakening nightmares of ages past.The blood of innocents will soak the earth, and the world will fall into fear and despair.But as one bright star shines through the clouds at night...And as one song rings clear above the roar of beasts...We hold to one hope in these darkest of times.That they will come, with the wisdom of ages and the strength of thousands, to deliver us from our plight.
We await the awakening of the Warriors of the Crystal.

Associated Press
CLEVELAND -- Scott Kazmir allowed one run in seven innings and the Cleveland Indians scored seven runs with two outs in the fourth to defeat the Cincinnati Reds 7-1 on Thursday.
The fourth-inning rally, which featured six straight run-scoring hits, gave the Indians a split of the annual Ohio Cup interleague series. The Reds won in Cincinnati on Monday and Tuesday before the Indians took both games when the series shifted to Cleveland.
The Reds have lost nine in a row at Progressive Field and haven't won in Cleveland since May 22, 2010.
Kazmir (3-2), recording his longest outing in the majors in three years, dodged a bases-loaded jam in the third when he got Joey Votto to bounce into an inning-ending double play.
Run-scoring singles by Michael Brantley and Yan Gomes, an RBI double by Ryan Raburn, a two-run double by Michael Bourn and an RBI single by Jason Kipnis chased starter Homer Bailey (3-4) in the fourth. Asdrubal Cabrera added a run-scoring double off Alfredo Simon.
Jay Bruce drove in Cincinnati's only run with an RBI single in the sixth.
The Indians carried a five-game losing streak, in which they scored 14 runs, into the series. Cleveland had also dropped seven of eight, but the bats woke up when the Reds hit town. Cleveland homered twice Wednesday, including a game-clinching three-run homer by Jason Giambi, and fell one run off their biggest inning of the season Thursday.
Cabrera was hit by a pitch to start the fourth and took second on Carlos Santana's one-out single.
After Mark Reynolds struck out, Brantley, who was in a 1-for-15 skid, singled sharply through the left side to score Cabrera. Gomes followed by lining a single to left, scoring Santana. Raburn's double to left scored Brantley before Bourn drove a double into the left-field corner for two more runs and a 5-0 lead.
Kipnis, who was in a 4-for-34 slump, singled to right to score Bourn and finish Bailey. Cabrera doubled to right against Simon.
Brantley and Kipnis weren't the only Cleveland hitters to break out of slumps in the inning. Santana came into the game batting .204 in May while Raburn was in a 3-for-24 skid.
Bailey, who threw 45 pitches in the fourth, lasted 32⁄3 innings, his shortest outing of the season. The right-hander allowed seven runs -- tying his season high.
Kazmir, a two-time All-Star with Tampa Bay, had his career sidetracked by arm problems that began in 2009. He was traded to the Angels that season but was 9-15 in 2010 and appeared in only one game the following year before being released. The Indians signed him to a minor-league contract in January after he pitched in an independent league last season.
Kazmir, who was 0-1 and allowed 11 earned runs in 13 innings in his past three starts, won for the first time since May 9.
Cincinnati loaded the bases with one out in the third. Derrick Robinson led off with a single, and singles by Shin-Soo Choo and Cesar Izturis loaded the bases. Votto, who came into the game batting .417 in May, hit a slow roller to the right side and Kipnis started the double play.
Votto went 0-for-4, snapping his career-long 18-game road hitting streak.
Bailey retired the first seven hitters before Gomes reached on an infield hit. Third baseman Todd Frazier charged the slow bouncer but couldn't make the barehanded grab.
NOTES: Raburn left the game in the fifth with cramping in his lower legs. He's listed day to day. ... The Reds begin a three-game series Friday in Pittsburgh. RHP Johnny Cueto (2-0) takes on Pirates LHP Wandy Rodriguez (6-2). ... Votto is the only Cincinnati player to appear in all 54 games this season. ... The Indians continue their five-game homestand Friday against Tampa Bay. RHP Corey Kluber (3-3) faces Rays righty Alex Cobb (6-2) in the opener of the three-game set. ... Indians RHP Justin Masterson, who defeated the Reds on Wednesday, is 4-0 with a 0.36 ERA in his past 25 innings at Progressive Field. ... Cleveland 1B Nick Swisher was honored by the FBI Citizens Academy Foundation before the game. Swisher donated $25,000 to the organization in support of the FBI's Child ID Kit program.

The SEI Blog: A Two-Year Retrospective
In launching the SEI blog two years ago, one of our top priorities was to advance the scope and impact of SEI research and development projects, while increasing the visibility of the work by SEI technologists who staff these projects. After 114 posts, and 72,608 visits from readers of our blog, this post reflects on some highlights from the last two years and gives our readers a preview of posts to come.
First, the numbers.
Since the blog was launched in early 2011 the top 10 posts, in terms of visits to the site, are
- Improving Security in the Latest C Programming Language Standard
- What is Agile?
- Strategic Planning with Critical Success Factors and Future Scenarios
- Fuzzy Hashing Techniques in Applied Malware Analysis
- The CERT Perl Secure Coding Standard
- The Importance of Safety- and Security-related Requirements, First of a Three-Part Series
- Writing Effective YARA Signatures to Identify Malware
- Improving Testing Outcomes Through Software Architecture
- Cloud Computing for the Battlefield
- The Growing Importance of Sustaining Software for the DoD
One observation about these top posts is the wide range of topics covered by the blogs, including secure coding, malware analysis, organizational planning, agile software methods, quality assurance, cloud computing at the tactical edge, and software sustainment across the lifecycle. These topic areas reflect the diversity scope, and impact of the work being done at the SEI.
Numbers aren't the only metric.
One goal of the blog when we launched was to provide immediate and accessible insights into the broad spectrum of work we do at the SEI via a two-way "read-write" medium that allows our audience to interact with SEI technologists, rapidly and effectively. Several posts that sparked dialogue between researchers and readers have highlighted the success of this model, including Robert Nord's post on Rapid Lifecycle Development in an Agile Context and David Svoboda's post on the CERT Perl Secure Coding Standard, which drew substantial feedback from coders.
Another goal of the blog was to give our audience immediate and accessible insights into our work. One success story in this arena stemmed from a post on fuzzy hashing in applied malware analysis by CERT malware researcher David French. Within a day of its publication, the post was referenced in the blog, Technology Review, which is maintained by the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. A few days after that, a writer for the Tech Republic blog interviewed David French about his research into fuzzy hashing. While the SEI remains committed to publishing our work in traditional venues, such as peer-refereed journals and conferences, it's also clear that social media dissemination vehicles like blogs can have tremendous impact in a short time period.
Securing the Cyber Infrastructure
Many of our posts have focused on securing the cyber infrastructure. The CERT Secure Coding Initiative is conducting research to reduce the number of software vulnerabilities to a level that can be mitigated in DoD operational environments. This work focuses on static and dynamic analysis tools, secure coding patterns, and scalable conformance testing techniques that help prevent coding errors or discover and eliminate security flaws during implementation and testing.
The post that brought in the most visitors during the past two years, Improving Security in the C Programming Language Standard by David Keaton, explored two of the changes--bounds-checking interfaces and analyzability--from the December 2011 revision of the C programming language standard, which is known informally as C11 (each revision of the standard cancels and replaces the previous one, so there is only one C standard at a time).
Other popular posts in this area highlighted work by SEI researchers who are developing tools to analyze obfuscated malware code to enable analysts to more quickly derive the insights required to protect and respond to intrusions of DoD and other government systems. Their approach, as described in a post by Sagar Chaki, uses semantic code analysis to de-obfuscate binary malware to a simple intermediate representation and then convert the intermediate representation back to readable binary that can be inspected by existing malware tools.
A Growing Importance in Software Sustainment
The high costs of software sustainment (which account for 60 to 90 percent of the total software lifecycle effort) are receiving increased attention as the DoD wrestles with the ramifications of sequestration. Over the last two years, we've dedicated a substantial portion of this blog space to the importance of highlighting our efforts to help the DoD sustain software more effectively.
Mike Phillips wrote a series of posts on efficient and effective software sustainment. The first post highlighted specific examples of the importance of software sustainment in the DoD, where software upgrade cycles need to refresh capabilities every 18 to 24 months on weapon systems that have been out of production for many years, but are expected to maintain defense capability for decades. The second post described effective sustainment engineering efforts in the Air Force, using examples from across the service's Air Logistics Centers (ALCs).
In June 2012, Bill Scherlis also penned a post on software sustainment stemming from a research effort that he led that studied defense software producibility, with the purpose of identifying the principal challenges and developing recommendations regarding both improvement to practice and priorities for research. The post highlighted key findings of the report Critical Code: Software Producibility for Defense, a summary of the results of the three-year research effort conducted under the auspices of the National Research Council (NRC).
I also authored a two-part series on this topic based on my involvement in an Air Force Scientific Advisory Board study on sustaining aging aircraft. The first post in the series, Toward Efficient and Effective Software Sustainment, summarized key software sustainment challenges faced by DoD; the subsequent post describes R&D activities conducted by the SEI to address some of these challenges. The second post in the series described key R&D activities conducted by the SEI to address these challenges including work in sustainment R&D, software product lines, Team Software Process, and software architecture.
An Interest in Agile
While agile methods have become popular in commercial software development organizations, the engineering disciplines needed to apply agility to mission-critical, software-reliant systems are not as well defined or practiced. Perhaps it's no surprise, therefore, that the category visitors to the blog site have clicked most on is "agile," and one of the most popular posts in that series is Stephany Bellomo's "What is Agile," which has drawn the second highest number of visitors to the site.
A strong reader interest in agile also spurred a series of posts that highlighted presentations made during the SEI Agile Research Forum. This forum brought together researchers and practitioners from around the world to discuss when and how to best apply agile methods in mission-critical environments found in government and many industries. I wrote a series of posts recapping presentations made at the Agile Research Forum by
- Anita Carleton, director of the SEI's Software Engineering Process Management Program, and Teresa M. Takai, chief information officer at the Department of Defense, who discussed the SEI's research efforts in Applying Agile at Scale for Mission-Critical Software Systems
- Mary Ann Lapham, a senior member of the technical staff, who discussed the importance of collaboration with end users, as well as among cross-functional teams, to facilitate the adoption of agile approaches into DoD acquisition programs
- Ipek Ozkaya, a senior member of the technical staff, who discussed the use of agile practices in strategic management of architectural technical debt
- Jim Over, manager of the SEI's Team Software Process initiative, who advocated the building of self-managed teams, planning and measuring project process, designing before building, and making quality the top priority, among other principles associated with applying agile methods at scale
- My presentation on applying agile methods to common operating platform environments (COPEs) that have become increasingly important for the DoD.
Looking Ahead
In December, we published a post on the State of the Practice of Cyber Intelligence from the SEI Emerging Technology Center. The post describes a research initiative aimed at helping organizations bolster their cyber security posture by leveraging best practices in methodologies and technologies that provide a greater understanding of potential risks and threats in the cyber domain. We will continue to work with the SEI Innovation Center to cover their work on data-intensive scalable computing, which includes the following technical areas:
- heterogeneous high-performance cloud computing
- cyber intelligence (tradecraft, capabilities, and prototyping new analysis methodologies)
- adaptive and autonomous systems
- analytics/applied machine learning
- prototype application development
- data architectures
- human-information interaction
In the coming months we will also be continuing our series on the Architecture Analysis & Design Language (AADL) standard, which provides formal modeling concepts for the description and analysis of application systems architecture in terms of distinct components and their interactions. Future posts in this series on AADL will cover tools and real-world applications highlighting experiences from organizations in the medical device and space domains.
On another front, we will continue writing about exploratory research efforts at the SEI, the outcomes of which will determine future directions at the SEI.
Most importantly, we'd like to thank our readers for their feedback and insight over the last two years. We value your insights and would welcome your feedback below on ways we can improve the SEI Blog to better serve our audience.

Dear friends,
I have lived in Missouri for exactly 649 days.
And for exactly 649 days I have complained to anyone who will listen to me about the ratcha-fratching hills.
Last fall, I showed you this photo of the hills by my house that I despise every single moment I am running up and down them.
(You commiserated with me. Thank you for that.)
What I haven't told you is that while it's really hilly where I live, there are some relatively flat stretches in town. In fact, there's a municipal bike/walk path about five miles from my home that is pretty darn flat and that I have inexplicably ignored.
See, that's how lazy I am. If I can't throw on my shoes and run out my door, I'm not interested.
I have a twitchy fear of complicated, ambiguous undertakings. (Actually, most of my work life is complicated and ambiguous, so I avoid those characteristics in my personal life. I haven't succeeded, but still I try.) And figuring out where the path goes, or the best place to start and finish, or where to park, well . . . that seemed like a lot of effort when I could just open my front door and go.
But Friday night, Mr. Mom and I went to a dinner party and noticed a good stretch of the path ran through our friends' neighborhood. So I came home, determined to overcome my fear and investigative inertia, and I spent a half-hour on the internet using various search terms and looking at Google maps trying to figure out the perfect route.
And I found it — a 7.3 mile route that appeared to offer minimal ascents and descents (or so it seemed to a girl who can't really read Google maps). So I scrutinized the map, looked for landmarks I could remember, determined where to park, and tried to commit the route to memory.
I headed out Saturday morning and found a trail-head right where I expected it to be. And 20 minutes into my run, I realized I had wandered off course when I crossed a busy highway that I didn't expect to encounter until much later in the route. (Two workmen were standing beside the highway as I ran by. I heard one of them say to the other, "See, that's what we ought to be doing right now." Not a bad boost for an old woman.) It seems I was lost and had no idea how to get back to the path. Worse, I didn't have a clue how I wandered off it.
Which is exactly the kind of complicated, ambiguous result I had been steadfastly avoiding.
So I just kept running. I wasn't lost-lost. I was familiar with the part of town I was in. But I was turned around and didn't know how to find the route I was originally pursuing, or whether or not I'd make it back to my car without calling Mr. Mom for a rescue.
Fortunately, I made out just fine. I never did find most of the route I was looking for, but I found another section of the path that proved scenic and satisfyingly flat. And I made it back to my car precisely when I was ready to quit anyway, at one hour, 25 minutes. Success!
I estimated my distance to be at least 7.5 miles based on my time, which means I broke my Missouri distance barrier. (Around my house, I have never run farther than six miles). More success!
Which made me wonder why it took me 649 days to give it a try.
With gratitude {for the post-run healing power of bubble baths},
Joan, who figures there's probably an app for charting runs but also has a twitchy fear of the iPhone app store unless somebody tells her straight-up which one to download

Tapanes v. State, — So.3d —, 2010 WL 3488709 (Fla.App. 4 Dist. September 8, 2010) [Opinion (PDF)]
Defendant was accused of killing his new neighbor and was indicted for murder. The jury convicted him of the lesser charge of manslaughter.
One of the key concepts in the case, and mentioned specifically in the jury instructions, was whether the defenant acted with "prudence" in his dealings with the victim.
During a break from deliberations, the jury foreperson used his iPhone to access Encarta and look up the word "prudence". Adding to this misdeed, the foreperson shared this information with the other jurors.
Based on this misconduct, defendant filed a motion seeking a new trial, and the trial court denied that motion. So defendant sought review with the Court of Appeal of Florida. On appeal, the court reversed, holding that the defendant was entitled to a new trial.
The appellate court observed that the concept of "prudence" was one that could have been key to the jury's deliberations. Using the smartphone in this way was analogous to using a dictionary, and that conduct has generally been prohibited in juror deliberations. The appellate court found that at the very least, it could "not say that there [was] no reasonable possibility that the . . . misconduct . . . did not affect the verdict in this case."
Ed. note: If the jury foreperson was savvy enough to use an iPhone, why on earth was he consulting Encarta? Hello, 1995 called – it wants its web pages back.

Brock then asks ash if he has a strategy. May asks how Ash can be so confident. Max then says its because Ash knows all of Flannery's Pokémon are Fire-type. Ash decides to fight with Corphish. The battle is about to begin. when Judge Moore says this battle is between Flannery the new gym leader, and Ash. Flannery complains saying, "Grandpa do you have to say I'm new?" Mr. Moore tells her that in the arena he will be referred to as Judge, and that there will be none of that grandpa stuff. Judge Moore begins explaining the rules, and Flannery gets exasperated, when he says that only the Challenger can switch Pokémon in battle. Ash says it'll be a great battle if Flannery is as good a trainer as she says she is in which Flannery nervously responds "Uhhh, yeah." Ash's friends begin to say that he is confident and that he has wanted this badge for a long time. Ash, thinking to himself, "I didn't know this was Flannery's first gym battle. This should be an easy win." The battle then begins. Flannery sends out Mag and Ash sends out Corphish.
Team rocket is found spying on the gym battle and they decide to dig a hole to steal Pikachu and Magcargo. James feels like he, Jessie and Meowth have done this before but Jessie and Meowth tell him to get the lead out. Corphish uses BubbleBeam and Magcargo takes a direct hit. Mag uses Flamethrower and then Corphish uses Harden. Brock tells him that "The Damage Corphish is taking is small, but it adds up." Flannery starts to get mad about Ash's smugness. Corphish uses BubbleBeam and then Mag uses Double Team. Flannery then says, "Getting frustrated Ash? your only hitting the fakes." Ash then makes Corphish hit them all and it hits Mag directly. Flannery gets extremely afraid and panics. Judge Moore looks at her, but thinks to himself that she has to relax. Since he's the judge he can't give Flannery any advice or special help. Then she has a flashback and remembers her grandfather telling her to stay calm, for if she can't do that, she'll make bad decisions. However she was sleeping through his teaching and he gets mad at her yelling "FLANNERY! DID YOU HEAR ME?!" and she replies "Yes, Grandpa!" She then gets calm and to Ash's surprise uses Reflect just before Corphish hits Mag with ViceGrip. Max says that Reflect cut Vicegrips attack in half. Mag uses Sandstorm, blowing Corphish away who then uses BubbleBeam. Mag then uses Sandstorm. Ash commands Corphish to use Crabhammer, to clear out the sandstorm. Flannery tells Mag to dodge the attack, but it is a direct hit and it makes Magcargo faint. Judge Moore declares Corphish the winner of round 1, and Flannery recalls Mag.
It then cuts in on Team Rocket who making a couple puns say, "Im digging this plan," "Can't pick no holes in it." "Lets bury the hatchet." they then strike a water pipe. and they get blown away like the normally do. Flannery then sends out Meg. Ash calls back Corphish and brings out Treecko, which leaves May and Brock confused. Slugma uses Flamethrower and Treecko dodges it, and then uses Quick Attack only to be blocked by Reflect.
Ash and Flannery get the same results: a dodge and a reflect in the face. Slugma then uses Smog, then Treecko tries using Bullet Seed, and they all miss. Slugma uses Body Slam crushing Treecko but then Treecko uses Bullet Seed. Slugma then uses Flamethrower and then Treecko gets burned. Ash then returns Treecko to his Poké ball. Ash sends out Corpfish. Slugma uses Smog, but Corphish uses Crab Hammer, and blows away the smog. Slugma uses yawn putting Corphish to sleep right before it tries to use ViceGrip. Flannery then explains it's a little surprise she uses on Water Pokémon. Judge Moore thinks Flannery might've gotten the best of Ash now. With his only advantage now sleeping like a baby it could be over. Slugma then uses Flamethrower, but Corphish doesn't wake up. Ash then calls him back. Pikachu then suggests he fight, and jumps into the battle. Slugma immediately uses Flamethrower, which Pikachu dodges and then proceeds to use Quick Attack only to get a Reflect in the face, but he breaks it. Slugma then uses Smog and then Pikachu tries to sense where Slugma is. He then uses Iron Tail, and then Slugma dodges and uses Flamethower on Pikachu, hitting him directly from behind. Ash then makes Pikachu use Thunderbolt, and it hits the smog cloud and fries Meg. Meg tries to use Yawn but Pikachu uses Quick Attack and then Thunder to finish off Slugma. Judge Moore declares Pikachu the winner of round 2. Flannery recalls Meg. Judge Moore reviews Flannery's mistake in his head. He then thinks that Flannery still has a long way to go and believes she can turn it around.
Team Rocket lands in a natural hot springs, and Meowth suggests that they give the boss a hot spring. For her final Pokémon Flannery sends out Torkoal The match begins and Ash makes Pikachu use Thunderbolt. Torkaol uses Iron Defense and Pikachu's move is deflected. Torkoal then follows up with Flamethrower, which Pikachu dodges and tries to use Iron Tail but Torkoal uses Iron Defense and Iron Tail is deflected. Torkoal comes out of its shell and uses Sludge Bomb and Pikachu dodges two of the three bombs but gets hit in the face with the third one. Pikachu then uses Thunder, Torkoal uses Iron Defense, and follows up with Overheat directly hitting Pikachu and making him faint. Judge Moore declares Torkoal the winner of the third round. Ash then sends out Treecko, who's still suffering from it's burn. Torkoal uses Overheat again making Treecko faint. Judge Moore declares Torkoal the winner of the fourth round. Going back to Team Rocket, they find out that there are Ursaring, and they get sent off into space again.
With no other options left, Ash then sends out his sleeping Corphish. Torkoal uses Overheat, but it doesn't knock it out, or wake it up. Brock then explains that Overheat gets weaker the more Flannery uses it. Torkoal then uses Flamethower, and Corphish wakes up, and uses Vice Grip. Torkaol uses Iron Defense blocking Vice Grip, then it uses Sludge Bomb. Ash then uses Crab Hammer, but Torkoal uses Iron Defense. Ash wonders how he can get Torkoal out of it's shell and comes up with an idea. Corphish uses Crab Hammer on the side of Torkaol's shell, making it dizzy and come out of its shell. Corpfish then uses Bubble Beam making Torkoal faint. Judge Moore then declares Ash the winner. Ash then congratulates Corphish and Flannery recalls Torkoal. Judge Moore tells Flannery that she had Ash beat but she was much too hasty, her strategy of using Overheat over and over again was reckless and she hasn't learned about being calm. Flannery apologizes but then he comforts her by saying it was a battle unlike anything he'd seen, and that it was a good battle for her very first and he is proud of her. Ash is then awarded his Heat Badge.
Quotes[edit | edit source]
- Mr. Moore: "This Gym Battle between Flannery, our first year Gym Leader and Ash from Pallet Town will now begin."
Flannery: "Grandpa! Do you have to say that I'm new?"
Mr. Moore: "No "Grandpa" stuff out here, Flannery. You'll address me as Judge."
Flannery: "Yeah, alright."
Mr. Moore: "Trainers can use up to three Pokémon, though only the challenger is allowed to make substitutions."
Flannery: "Say what?!"
Mr. Moore: "Do you not know the rules?"
Flannery: "Yeah, of course I do (laughs). Well Ash, It's showtime"
Ash: "Yup, Should be a great battle if you're as good as you say you are."
Flannery: "Uhhhhhh, yeah."

1. The re-telling of one's dream (unless you play a pivitol role in said dream)
2. "I was so drunk last night, I played ___ games of beer pong with ________ who totally lost and ended up throwing up in the ________ and then ____ started hitting on this girl but she turned him away for ________ and then we had ____ shots of ____"
3. Cameron's ammendment to the "nothing is more boring than listening to someone describe their dream if you aren't in it" rule was "stories about one's acid trip are more boring." Agreed.
But, because of:
1. The Oscars (The only movies I saw this year were "Little Miss Sunshine," "The Break-Up," "Short Bus," "The Devil Wears Prada," "Borat," "Dreamgirls" and--NOT MY IDEA--"The DaVinci Code"), which involves "dreams" in the following contexts:
i. The movie "Dreamgirls" about a band called "The Dreams"
ii. Dreams, as in "Hopes and Dreams" and "I've dreamed of this day all my life," as well as Ellen's opening bit about dreams.
2. Haviland Stillwell, as Fantine in "Les Miserables" on Saturday Night at the Broadhurst Theatre on Broadway, who sang "I Dreamed a Dream," which was lovely. In addition to being a stunning performer (yes, I got a little teary, per usual when someone I love does something spectacular, which is um, often Haviland these days) Haviland's dresser performed some notable feats with her rack, via corset.
I present....
10. the movie "what dreams may come": so pretty. just turn off the sound?
This movie was so beautiful! It was also, I think, so so bad. Cuba Gooding Jr., who we all loved at the time because of his triumph in "Jerry Maguire," was totally mis-cast as like, an angel (or God? i don't remember) in this sentimental Thomas Kinkaid-esque visual romp through all things sentimental and glowy and orange-ish. And Robin Williams, who is a genius usually, was sort of like, bounding around in golden meadows and spouting off zingers like "A whole human life is just a heartbeat here in heaven." Obviously I cried during this movie, which I viewed at the Traverse City mall, because it was about finding dead people in the afterlife, which is clearly a sensitive topic for me and a frequent topic of my actual dreams. But also I really don't understand why it's such a frequent topic of movies. Do people want to be depressed? I guess people say the same thing to me about listening to so much Jeff Buckley. But anyhow wow! It still sure was pretty. Even if it was sometimes pretty in a Thomas Kinkaid way. I want these people to paint a mural in my room that feels like all our film-style imaginations could ever expect from fantasy-heaven.
9. dream whip zine
Because I've been aspiring to hipster-dom since I was old enough to read "Sassy" and wear unflattering clothing trends, my BFF and I made a zine (called "Lunette") in high school, which enabled us to write about ourselves for public consumption AND receive other zines for free. The best zine I ever read was "dream whip." I assumed that it was gone, like other casualties of the mid-nineties--my braces/rubberbands, "My So-Called Life," chain wallets, the expansive zine scene itself (yes, I know that zines are indeed alive and well, but the internet has cut into it somewhat)-- But dream whip, I have learned by a quick internet search, soldiers on. In fact, it is written by a filmmaker named Bill Brown, and you can buy his back issues through microcosm publishing. I still have my original copy. Here's some selections:
8. "Sleep to Dream" by Fiona Apple
"You say love is a hell you cannot bear, and I say gimme mine back and then go there for all I care." I mean, seriously. Fiona Apple, continue to writhe and hurt and sing forever, I will always, always love you, no matter what they say. Your mind and your body cannot be stifled by your deviant ways. You got your own hell to raise.
7. "I Have a Dream" by Martin Luther King, Jr.
That was a good one, huh, that speech? About people being judged by their insides and not their outsides? Like the Dove "love your body" ads but more ambitious and with less pictures? Yeah, that was a good one. I liked Martin Luther King day. We got to hold hands with other people and sing optimistic songs. We don't do that enough, really. Yay MLK!
6. Champagne Dreams
I keep hearing that term in my head as I think about this Sunday Top Ten. For some reason I thought it was a Death Cab or Belle and Sebastian song. Then, just now, I heard it in my head, remembered what it's from, and felt like a douchebag. Remember when 'Lives of the Rich and Famous' was special? Like, before all those VH1 shows with lots of graphics and facial pore experts talking about how much Paris Hilton spends on underwear? I actually never saw it to be honest with you. But people were doing Robin Leach imitations like he was Borat or something. When was that show even on? Who was on it? Is it on DVD? Can I take this chance to say I think it was awesome that Britney shaved her head, it was so like "fuck you, you people that want me to be this sexy teen schoolgirl bubblegum bullshit!" I mean, I know she's troubled, and needs help, etc etc, but seriously can you blame her? jesus.
5. My So-Called Life, Episode 19: "In Dreams Begin Responsibilities"
This is the episode where Angela gets the note from Jordan Catalano that breaks her heart right open, but in a good way. Except that Brian Krakow wrote it and she doesn't know who to pick---the nice boy who has a way with words, or Jordan Catalano? I would have to say Jordan Catalano. This is the last episode of "My So-Called Life" ever. I think I have the whole thing memorized from start to finish. "Dear Angela, I know in the past I've caused you pain and I'm sorry. And I'll always be sorry 'till the day I die. And I hate this pen I'm holding because I should be holding you. I hate this paper under my hand because it isn't you. I even hate this letter because it's not the whole truth. Because the whole truth is so much more than a letter can even say. If you want to hate me, go ahead. If you want to burn this letter, do it. You could burn the whole world down; you could tell me to go to hell. I'd go, if you wanted me to. And I'd send you a letter from there. Sincerely, Jordan Catalano." One time someone wrote me a letter like that. I melted. I forgave.
4. Midsummer Night's Dream
I went through piles of old stuff at home over winter break (I still call it that, even though school's ancient history now, it still feels the same as it always did, you know?) and found this photo from "A Midsummer Night's Dream," which we did 50s style in the theater guild at Pioneer in like, 1845 or whenever that was. Centuries ago. Long ago in the then far before now. The then before me. This photo is important, and here's why:
1. It marks the very first time I wore a girl-costume in a play. Girls are often cast as boys in youth/teenaged theatrical productions, because there are never enough talented boys to fill all the boy roles. Since my body was much like a 13-year-old boy's until approx. my 16th year on earth, I was a shoo-in for boy-parts. I was "Robin," one of the mechanicals, or whatever, which is a boy, but I asked if I could wear a dress and be a girl and they were like "ok!" Actually, if I could hem that to mid-thigh, I'd totally still wear it. Like, right now.
2. This is the last photo my Dad ever took of me.
3. Dreamweaver (Wayne and Garth style)
This is how you can see if it's true love. When your special someone comes walking towards you, hair a-blowin' in the wind, if you hear "Dreamweaver" in your head, that means that you really love them, and want to shwing and then shoop. And then, if you are one of the 99% of the people in this world that found "Austin Powers" even slightly amusing (I am in the 1%), you can "shag." Basically, any time a hot woman comes on TV now, we're all hearing "Dreamweaver" in our heads if they play it or not.
2. Dream Dates in Junior High Notes
My 12-year-old BF and I would write each other really romantic notes about our deep secret desires. We expressed these through "dream dates," or stories we would make up about what we'd like to do together, which usually ended in a very satisfying smooch on the lips, or even a "french." They took place often at ski resorts by fires (including one improbable placement of a romantic fire on a snowy mountain), at school dances, or on schoolbusses. I think this was good practice for erotica writing later.
1. Haviland Stillwell singing "I Dreamed a Dream" in Les Miserables
I'm a little fidgety, especially during 3-hour tones on the French Revolution (right? I don't know, really), and so I did a lot of: dancing, stretching, sitting, doodling, annoying the people in front of us, but mostly I was in a state of complete ecstasy because I was wearing the most comfortable dress in the world, that I borrowed from Haviland ("borrowed"=took from her closet when I stopped at her apartment after work to change my clothes and look at myself, even though she wasn't home to grant me permission). This delight was only compounded by Haviland's performance, which I paid attention to. I got goosebumps, tears in my eyes, and all other possible physical reactions to see my best friend up there on a Broadway stage being a rock-star. When she was like "Tell Cosette I love her and I'll see her when I wake!" I was all like: "oh, sad!" Then I got up (literally, I was on the ground) when she returned from the dead to sing and be pretty in her nightgown. Before Hav was cast in this bohemoth, my knowledge of "Les Mis" was limited to the 10,000 renditions of "On my Own" I heard during 7th grade talent shows.
If you know what's good for you, there is still time: tomorrow at the Wednesday afternoon performance, Hav will be Fantine. GO!

Good product good price delivered as promised.
Very happy, delivery quick, considering we live on an island...definitely buy more
A very good service and a very quick delivery thank
After purchasing two different braces which didn't seem to be secure enough. We are delighted to say that the braces we received from you do the job perfectly. We would recommend them to anybody.
I am very pleased with my purchase from British Braces quality
Easy to use web site. Order processed in a timely manner. Good quality braces.
Excellent quality with quick delivery, I bought the extra long and wide fit braces and my husband is very pleased with them.
Having sadly put on more weight I finally decided to buy a new pair of braces to hold my leather motorcycle trousers up. My previous pair from another a motorcycle specific company had proven to be not very good as the elasticity did not last very long. So searching the Net I came across BB and given the description & more than reasonable price I decided to buy a pair of braces from them. They arrived very promptly and look to be well made & of very good quality. I,ve used them a few times now and been happy with them. Time will tell if they last longer than the pair I am replacing but given the quality of them I am convinced that they will. Thanks BB and if I dont lose weight I,ll be back for a pair to hold my normal trousers up.
they clip on trousers and stay cliped ON
Really good braces, well made and sturdy. They are ideal for work trousers and motorcycle trousers. Brilliant!!
Husband said they are the best braces he has owned they are light weight and fit well very comfortable.
I have used them several times and have been impressed by the service received..
A very well made long lasting product
Being of a large frame I value robust clothing and British Braces fall into that category, they are "probably the best braces in the world" , you won't hear me saying anything but good , if only everything was as reliable.
Great colours and love the hearts on a white background. Can't wait to wear them. Fab service too!
These braces are very good, and give a look of elegance.
I bought two pair of British Braces ,one for a friend and one for myself ,and both of us are over the moon with the braces ,I have had lots of comments and all of them were good I have used my braces every day since they were delivered .No more belt buckles sticking into me when I bend over .Overall I would like to say that my British Braces are much more comfortable than any belt could be. I wish now that I had bought a pair years ago Thanks again for this wonderfull set of braces I can see me buying another pair very soon ,and a handy gift for a christmas present Thanks again Ian Wilkie
Fast efficient service and good product and value for money
This is the second pair I have purchased albeit some considerable time (years) between orders. The high quality remains and with a huge choice of patterns / motifs. The braces I ordered arrived next day well packaged. Excellent service from an established company
Yep very quick delivery and quality item for the father in law!
Ordered on line as a gift for my son in Australia, who is really happy with them.
Excellent choice, does the job they are designed for.
Quality is very good,delivery was quick
Very comfortable and capable of supporting the weight of my working trousers with tools, tape, phone etc stuffed in various pockets and cordless drill hanging off a loop. So much better than wearing a tight belt.
Brilliant braces, good selection, strong gripping clips and excellent delivery service
Great service quick delivery Product excellent will be back
Look good seems good quality haven't used them yet
I got 2 pair's for my husband who is delighted with them. Fantastic quality brilliantly made he's really happy with them and we shall be buying again
Lovely braces indeed! Just slightly pricey in my opinion. Packed as a gift, lovely to give to someone, but I kept them for myself.
Bought some new Jazz themed braces for my husband and he is delighted with them, not only because of the style but he says they are so comfortable to wear. Well done
Excellent for supporting textile motorcycle trousers. I ordered the extra heavy duty ones with "shoulder pads" but found the pads unnecessary. Once they were removed, the braces were just right
Braces and knickers are a curiosity for the English To us a brace is a pair - or game birds for instance. What I bought was Braces - but only one. And it is excellent. Marks and Spencer's knickers are another matter entirely. But I need not bother you about it/them.
Must be the lockdown but my tummy is proving a problem when wearing trousers/shorts so I invested in a pair of your braces. What joy it felt that the aforementioned apparel were not falling down and what comfort too. Down side was going to the loo (reminded me of the problem when wearing salopettes) but overall a winner. Also a bit bulky but fine under a loose top.
Very quick and efficient service
Great product. Speedy service. Good value for money
good braces, no faults found yet. good quality. I have bought them before and I will do again.
Are what they claimed to be. Especially good for thin light material
Just the right design, at the right price and made in the UK.
Quality service and very happy with the braces
Brilliant braces. My husband was really happy with them and loved showing them off.
Well-made braces, well packaged and swiftly sent
Lots of choice, something to suit everyone. Fitted hubby a treat. Arrived when said and kept informed of parcel.

Great braces and prompt delivery. Excellent value for money.
Arrived very promptly (within a couple of days). Very impressed with the braces, they are so strong and dependable! My husband is so glad about the strong clasps as his previous ones kept pinging off. He wears work trousers with lots of heavy things in so they are really good for that.

Great products,excellent website quick delivery what more do you need Keep up the good work and thank you.

I bought a pair of braces for my father who is delighted with them - he finds them much more comfortable than a belt. A great success!
Good selection of braces at reasonable prices. Quality is excellent as is service. Ordered again from them last week and delivery was fast even in these difficult times.
I got what I ordered on-time and they did what I expected. What else can I say.
My husband is very pleased with them, the delivery was quick
Excellent service! They arrived within 3 days and my dad loves them!
A very good and well made pair of braces and good value for money too will soon be getting my second pair.
Excellent service and great quality.

PJ Sharon here. When I began studying the writing craft about eight years ago, I hooked up with a retired high school English teacher friend of mine who suggested that I needed to learn how to "speak about language." What she meant was that I needed to understand the difference between parts of speech, learn the ways in which we use language, and be able to differentiate the tools that help us define communication. More than basic grammar and usage, I needed to re-learn the difference between homonyms and synonyms, and idioms and euphemisms.
I find all these terms confusing on a good day! To help me keep it all straight, I get my word and grammar fix from Daily Writing Tips, a newsletter subscription that sends me…yes, daily writing tips. It keeps me learning new things, and often helps me drag some old reminders from the recesses of my 10th grade brain. I found the definitions of paranym and paronym this week and was delighted to learn a new term. If you haven't subscribed yet, you should! http://www.dailywritingtips.com/
I don't know about you, but differentiating between a paranym and a paronym would never have even been on my radar before I became a writer, began hanging out at writing conferences and taking workshops where people smarter than I seemed to understand this "foreign" language of English in a way that made me want to be "in on the secret."
Since I'll be at the National RWA conference next week, I thought I'd study up. After all, it's not ALL about the shoes! And no, my feet would not be caught dead in these, LOL. I'll be wearing flats.
Here are those definitions…in case you're interested. Courtesy of Daily Writing Tips and Wikipedia.
I'll start with euphemisms. This one, I get. Wiki defines Euphemism as a mild or pleasant word or phrase that is used instead of one that is unpleasant or offensive.
Examples of a euphemism:
"Eliminate" in place of "kill," "kick the bucket" instead of "die," or "unmotivated" rather than "lazy."
An Idiom is a phrase or a fixed expression that has a figurative, or sometimes literal, meaning. An idiom's figurative meaning is different from the literal meaning.
It's "raining cats and dogs," she's "pulling your leg," "it's not rocket science," or you "spilled the beans."
Paranyms- A euphemistic word or phrase whose literal sense is contrary to the reality of what it refers to, used especially to disguise or misrepresent the truth about something. In other words, words whose meaning is generally the opposite of that intended by the speaker.
Example: "Everlasting life:" Or in other words, "death."
Paronyms- A word which is derived from another word or from a word with the same root, and having a related or similar meaning, (e.g. childhood and childish). Another definition is a word similar in sound or appearance to another; especially, a near homonym.
This is where all those pesky confusing words come from.
affect/effect, farther/further, alternately/alternatively, interested/interesting, corrupted/corrupt, adopt/adapt, continuous/contiguous
If you want to know the difference between Heteronyms, Homonyms, Homographs and Homophones, check out this article by Lee Masterson of the Fiction Factor, an online magazine for fiction writers that also has great tips on the language of words. http://www.fictionfactor.com/articles/hhhh.html
I hope you enjoyed today's lesson.
Which vocabulary definitions throw you for a loop? (Yep…I used an idiom).

A University of South Alabama student who was found naked by campus police was killed by a single shot fired from an officer's weapon. WPMI's Darwin Singleton reports.
A day after a naked student at the University of South Alabama was fatally shot in the chest by a campus security guard, his mother and friends are asking why no other means were used to subdue the 18-year-old.
According to a statement released by the university, an officer heard loud banging on the police station window early Saturday and left his post to investigate. The man banging on the window was Gilbert Thomas Collar, an 18-year-old freshman who had graduated high school the previous spring. He was naked.
Collar was a wrestler whose favorite quotation, according to his Facebook profile, was "Be easy." His profile photo is of himself, sporting a skinny black tie and light facial hair, his arm wrapped around his mother.
According to the university statement, the officer "was confronted by a muscular, nude man who was acting erratically. The man repeatedly rushed and verbally challenged the officer in a fighting stance."
The officer allegedly asked Collar to stop, but the young student chased him "in a threatening manner and ignored the officer's repeated commands."
That's when the officer drew his police sidearm and shot Collar once, striking him in the chest.
Collar "got up once more and continued to challenge the officer further before collapsing and expiring," the report said. The officer has been placed on paid administrative leave pending an investigation.
Collar's mother told CNN she doesn't understand why the officer had to shoot her son. Her son, she said, was 5-foot-7 and weighed 135 pounds.
"He was wearing no clothes and he was obviously not in his right mind," Bonnie Collar said. "Obviously he was not armed. He was completely naked."
Sophomore Tyler Kendrick was also dissatisfied.
"Really, it just upsets me that there's no other way to apprehend an unarmed student rather than shooting him. I don't understand that," Kendrick told The Associated Press.
Campus officials said the confrontation was recorded by security cameras. The video and other information has been turned over to the district attorney and the Mobile County Sheriff's Office, which will review the shooting.
A university spokesman declined to say Saturday whether Collar was under the influence of alcohol or drugs.
The University of South Alabama is in Mobile and serves 15,000 students.

Shell Canada announced Tuesday that it has filed a project description with federal and provincial environmental assessment agencies for a liquefied natural gas plant and a marine terminal capable of loading two LNG tankers at a time at Kitimat.
The project description provides the first indication of the potential environmental impact LNG production could create, with effects ranging from impacts on human health due to air pollution, to changes in marine mammal and fish behaviour because of noise.
Further, the increased tanker traffic could affect activities by local vessels and change the air quality due to ships' emissions, concerns already raised by regional First Nations.
Benefits are expected to include renewable power, community infrastructure, jobs and new businesses, particularly marine services.
The document describes a plant capable of producing enough LNG for 170 to 350 LNG ships a year that will travel in and out of Douglas Channel, depending on the size of the ships.
Filing the project description is the first step in the regulatory process leading to a full environmental assessment of the project, named LNG Canada by Shell and its three partners, Mitsubishi Corp. Korean Gas Corp. and PetroChina.
They propose to build a facility capable of producing 24 million tonnes a year of LNG.
LNG Canada is the first of five proposed LNG projects in northwestern B.C. to file a project description with both the federal Canadian Environmental Assessment Agency and the B.C. Environmental Assessment Office. It received a 25-year natural gas export licence from the National Energy Board Feb. 4.
In the project description LNG Canada states it has made no decision yet on whether the four-train facility is to be powered by electricity from the grid or by a gas-fired electrical generating station.
If the gas option is chosen, the generator will need to produce 200 Megawatts of electricity or more and will be fuelled by eight million cubic metres a day of natural gas. The entire project, including the generator will need 104 million cubic metres a day of gas.
Project construction is expected to start in 2015 with a completion in 2019 or 2020. The facility is expected to have a life of 25 years.
The project description can be viewed at the Canadian Environmental Assessment Agency website at: Http://www.ceaa.gc.ca/050/documents/p80038/87575E.pdf

Some common orofacial conditions are obstructive sleep disorders and temporomadibular disorders.
Obstructive sleep disorders, including snoring and sleep apnea, are caused by anatomical obstructions of the airway. Airway obstruction can occur as a result of nasal congestion, swelling, decreased tissue tone, lax musculature, enlarged tongue or tonsils, elongated soft palate, increased body fat and posterior posturing of the jaw.
Many people experience recurrent pain involving the head, jaw, face and neck. Temporomandibular disorders (TMD) are a common cause of many of these complaints. Temporomandibular disorders are often referred to as "TMJ."
The following suggestions may help reduce or prevent snoring and sleep apnea:

In his mammoth tome, The Book of Basketball, a work I begrudgingly call both comprehensive and wholly entertaining, Bill Simmons shares the theory that 24 is the pivotal age for athletic shooting guards. He uses Jordan, Bryant, McGrady, Wade, a 25-year-old Iverson (lost five months as a high school senior sitting in a jail cell) and David Thompson as examples. It wasn't really a theory so much as a limited observation. Simmons admitted he wasn't sure why 24 offered peak seasons for some of the league's best all-time shooting guards, it just did. I'd go one better, or maybe just one broader, and say that a player's third or fourth year in the league allows for the same type of gauge. I'd also extend the rule across all positions, because I'm nothing if not all-inclusive. Think of Kyle Lowry in 2010 or Rudy Gay, Wesley Matthews. Whether a player jumps to the pros at 19 or at 22, few enter the NBA as ready-made contributors. It takes dozens of late-night Red Lobster runs fetching Gerald Wallace his Cheddar Bay Biscuits, or Grant Hill foot rubs, or thrown games of Words With Friends against Reggie Evans (who is neither friendly nor particularly wordy when it comes to that game – or any game probably) before a youngster can acclimate to the league. And if the youngsters aren't pre-loading the newest Sade joint onto Udonis Haslem's Zune, they're learning the team's system, packing on muscle, slowing the game down, working on timing. They're baby deer learning to walk. If they're just fawns, they won't be surefooted. If they're still shaky as 3-year-old bucks, the thing might be lame and you should look to trade it and throw Michael Redd in for good measure.
Below are the players with fewer than five seasons and turning 24 next year most likely to ignite their young careers:
NOTE: I ordered these guys by last season's PER rating, taking into account playing time and years in the league; giving more credit to players with less experience under the prediction that they are more likely to make a larger qualitative leap than the more experienced player. I wouldn't necessarily draft these guys in this order … but, with the exception of Chandler being too low because of injury and misuse on Denver, this isn't a ridiculous prediction of how good the incoming 24-years-olds are going to be.
It's also worth noting that Andrew Bynum turns 24 next season. He's played at least 35 games in six seasons and didn't quite qualify for this list. Although if Iverson qualifies at 25 in Simmons' list after wasting precious months of his life in a holding
cell pattern, Bynum should probably qualify too. Whatever. I'm still miffed at the classless way he ended his season and the crap-full way he's going to start his next one.

Sometimes animals just have to get out, as shown in several viral videos this week. We can only assume they were bored and looking for some fun.
A zebra and a pony were found trotting around Staten Island together on Wednesday.
Maybe they were trying to meet up with a camel that escaped from the circus Friday and ran amok in Glendale, Calif., stopping traffic on a busy street.
A deer in Michigan, seemingly wanting to get its Christmas shopping under way, crashed through the door of a beauty supply store over the weekend.
The dogs of the world, living in comparable luxury, are much more relaxed than their hoofed friends. Watch this dog perform a conga dance to Gloria Estefan, in hopes of getting its paws on some leftover turkey.

No Wedding Day for Jay
by Dr. M on July 26, 2011 in Entertainment, Sports
It appears Jay Cutler will not be walking down the aisle next spring. The Chicago Bears quarterback broke off his engagement to The Hills star, Kristin Cavallari just weeks before the start of football season. Cutler, now 28, was diagnosed with diabetes three years ago. He has Type 1, sometimes referred to as "juvenile diabetes," which is a misnomer. While the onset typically occurs in children and adolescents, people of any age can be affected. Cutler himself was 25. He exhibited all the classic signs of diabetes: weight loss (he went from 238 pounds to 203 in a few short months), frequent urination, insatiable thirst, and lack of energy. As a result of untreated diabetes, his game suffered. It was not until a routine blood test (required to participate in offseason training), that Cutler learned he had diabetes.
Diabetes, generally speaking, is a condition in which the body's cells do not receive adequate supply of sugar, in particular, a sugar called glucose. When our food is digested, glucose makes its way into our bloodstream. Our cells use the glucose for energy and growth. But glucose cannot enter our cells without insulin. It is insulin which enables our cells to take in glucose. Without insulin, the sugar levels in the bloodstream rise.
Cutler's adult-onset type 1 diabetes highlights the importance of distinguishing the three different types of diabetes:
Type 1 may more accurately be termed "insulin-dependent" diabetes. This is because people with the condition require daily, subcutaneous injections of insulin for the rest of their lives. In type 1, the body's immune system attacks cells in the pancreas that make insulin.
Type 2 diabetes is sometimes referred to as "adult diabetes." This is another misconception. In fact, recent studies conducted by the CDC have found that children and teenagers are being diagnosed with the disease at an alarming rate. About 95% of those children were obese at the time of diagnosis. Type 2 diabetes occurs when the pancreas does not make enough insulin, suffers from "insulin resistance", or both. Insulin resistance means that the cells no longer respond properly to the insulin present. An unhealthy weight is a major risk factor.
A third type, gestational diabetes, occurs in pregnant women, and is usually temporary. Complications can still endanger the health of the woman and her fetus.
There is also an uncommon medical condition called diabetes insipidus which actually has nothing to do with insulin. In diabetes insipidus, the kidneys are unable to conserve water as they filter blood. This problem arises either directly from the kidney, or from a part of the brain called the hypothalamus, which produces a hormone, called ADH, that controls water conservation.
Despite the differences between type 1 and 2, the complications are often the same. The higher the blood sugars over an extended period of time, the greater the risk for complications such as blindness, stroke, nerve damage, limb amputation, kidney failure, and premature death.

This May, curator Brett Kelly of the National Civil War Museum in Harrisburg, PA is going to make all other public historians across the nation look like sissies. He'll conduct a two-week march in period outfit from Virginia to Pennsylvania as part of a fundraising drive. Full pack, no tent, nineteenth-century rations. Click here for information on how to donate.
Back in my museum days, I thought I deserved a medal just for working every fifth weekend. Now that I've read this, I feel like a wuss.
The museum will also conduct an "alternate reality" game to run concurrently with the march. My thanks to educator Jeff Mummert for bringing this to my attention; check out his blog for details on the game.

CableKiosk offers you the latest in cable technology, such as DisplayPort 1.2 cables, at a price that is sure to fit your pocket. Our current product range includes nearly every DisplayPort cable you could need. We also have extension cables of various lengths, DisplayPort to VGA adaptors, DisplayPort to HDMI adaptors and DisplayPort to DVI adaptors as well as mini versions of the above-mentioned products. These products are manufactured by Linkqage and Unitek, among others. DisplayPort is a digital video display interface developed by the Video Electronics Standards Association (VESA). It is used to connect a video source to a display device like a computer monitor. It was developed with the aim of replacing VGA, DVI and FPD-Link, although you will still be able to use DisplayPort enabled video sources without having to replace your display devices thanks to backward compatibility to VGA and DVI by means of adapter dongles. Since it was launched in 2006, DisplayPort has become very popular and widely adopted by the computer industry. It is currently featured on most graphic or display cards, laptops and tablets. DisplayPort cables can also be used for transmitting audio and other types of data. These cables are capable of transmitting multichannel digital audio and video simultaneously. They can also carry bi-directional USB signals. The current version of DisplayPort cables, 1.2, provides enough bandwidth to handle video resolutions of up to 3840x2160 pixels at a refresh rate of 60Hz. DisplayPort cables can support the most common 3D video formats. By using an adapter a DisplayPort cable can connect a DisplayPort source to a VGA (older format) display device. Passive copper DisplayPort cables are capable of handling extremely high data rates over a length of up to 2m. The DisplayPort interface is not compatible with DVI or HDMI (although it has very similar functionality to HDMI). However, we have adapters available to connect DisplayPort sources to single-link DVI and HDMI displays.
