US House re-elects Speaker Boehner
US House Speaker John Boehner has been re-elected to lead the chamber, despite unrest in his conservative Republican majority after this week's passage of the unpopular "fiscal cliff" deal.
The legislation, which President Barack Obama signed late Wednesday, fended off across-the-board income tax increases and postponed major spending cuts for two months. The measure allowed income taxes to rise on households earning more than $US450,000 ($A430,000) a year, a concession by conservative Republicans who argued that any tax increase could harm the still-fragile economic recovery.
After receiving a strong, bipartisan majority in the Senate, the legislation passed the House 257-167, with only 85 Republicans supporting it, while 151 Republicans voted no.
The second-ranking House Republican, Eric Cantor, considered a potential rival to Boehner, sided with the hard-line, anti-tax Republicans, voting against the fiscal cliff deal supported by the speaker.
After the vote, Boehner received a standing ovation when he entered the House chamber and walked to the podium to take the oath of office. Nancy Pelosi, leader of the Democratic minority in the House, in a bipartisan tradition, introduced Boehner, who held up a large wooden, ceremonial gavel.
Boehner pointed out that his oath, like that sworn by all Congress members, "makes no mention of party or faction or title ... only to the constitution".
"We're sent here not to be something, but to do something," he said.
Boehner said that an "anchor of debt" was weighing on the US economy and threatening to burden future generations. "We have to be willing - truly willing - to make this problem right," he said.
Boehner, who is known for weeping easily at momentous occasions, repeatedly paused and appeared choked with emotion during a short address.
The House speakership vote coincided with Thursday's swearing in of the new Congress for 2013-14, after the November elections in which the opposition Republicans remained in a slightly smaller House majority, 235-200.
In the Senate, Obama's left-leaning Democrats expanded their majority to 55-45.

|Brady Skjei (NHLmedia.com)
2012 Draft Class
Brady Skjei (1st 28th) is the best example of if you go strictly by the numbers then many a Ranger fan thought Skjei had a weak freshman season at Minnesota. They would also be wrong as Skjei was paired with Minnesota's best offensive player last season with the role of being the defensive protector. Yes Skjei had some inconsistent games during the season as he made the jump to NCAA Division 1 hockey but that is to be expected for a young defender.
This year, Skjei is be asked to do a little more on the blueline as once again Minnesota will bring a loaded squad to contend for the NCAA title. Don't be surprised if Skjei winds up paring with Islander prospect Jake Bischoff (2012 7th) on the blueline. The numbers aren't important to me as I want to see Skjei out on the ice in critical situations with the game on the line for Minnesota.
Cristoval "Boo" Nieves (2nd 59th) had a great first half and for the most part a good second half but no goals in his last 11 games. This year "Boo" will need to be one of the team leaders for his Michigan Wolverines as the Wolverines missed making the NCAAs for the first time since the 1989-1990 season. The first question for Nieves has to be which is he, a playmaker or a goal scorer?
I say Nieves needs to be the playmaker who chips in enough goals to keep other teams honest. A 45 point season would be a good one for Nieves.
2011 Draft Class
Steven Fogarty (3rd 72nd) may have only had a 5-5-10 freshman season for Notre Dame but expect that to change as Fogarty enters his sophomore season. Fogarty and the Fighting Irish are beginning their first season in the Hockey East so Fogarty's big size will be needed especially on the penalty kill where he excels at.
Fogarty also needs to have a strong season on his faceoffs as anything below a 50% win rate could be the difference between a winning season and a losing one.
2013 Draft Class
Adam Tambellini (3rd 65th) will be making the jump from the BCHL to North Dakota and for his development this is the right move for him. I like Tambellini's size and skill set but he has to work on his body first adding some muscle to it. Better body to me will help Tambellini improve his decision making speed.
There is no question that Tambellini can score but let us see him put the entire package together.
Anthony Duclair (3rd 80th) should have a better year now that the circus known as Patrick Roy has left the Quebec Remparts. Duclair had a rocky season last year and should bounce back under new coach Philippe Boucher. Anything less that 30 goals will be unacceptable from Duclair who has speed and talent but needs to show that he will bring it every night.
Ryan Graves (4th 110th) plays on a team called the Islanders which should make things confusing for several Ranger fans. What won't be confusing is that Graves at 6'4 220 as he will be looked to lead a very young Charlottetown Islander blueline. Graves will be asked to play top 2 minutes for the Islanders who will be coached by former Ranger Gordie Dwyer.
Mackenzie Skapski (6th 170th) is in my book the prospect to watch as the goalie for the Kootenay Ice will be asked to carry the Ice on his shoulders once again. Skapski appeared in 65 games last season going 34-25-1 with a 2.78 GAA and 0.910 save percentage. Would like to see Skapski come down to a 2.25- 2.30 and 0.925 for this season.
Free Agent
Troy Donnay (2013) is a player who in all honesty I am wondering what the Rangers see in that nobody else did besides being 6'7. Yes he has a lot of size but in watching him last season, Donnay doesn't always use it. He doesn't have any real offense to speak of and he is as expected a major project. I just don't see Donnay as NHL material unless Jeff Beukeboom is a miracle worker.

A way of life, a way of traveling
Scandinavia consists of Denmark and the two countries of the Scandinavian Peninsula, Norway and Sweden. However, it's not rare to consider Finland, Iceland and Faroe Islands part of this region, due to geologic, economic and cultural (language) reasons.
Above all, the Scandinavian countries share a very unique way of being. They have created a lifestyle that makes others look up to them as an example of society, since they usually rank in high positions in all kinds of happiness, development and life quality studies.
There are obvious similarities between Denmark, Finland, Norway and Sweden: Vikings and monarchies are part of their history; they show great esteem for the natural beauty of their territories; they love esplanades and amusement parks and they have a refined taste for design and architecture.
The capital cities of Copenhagen, Stockholm, Oslo and Helsinki hold much of this "Nordic" identity. Discover a different world in every city and come back home with a sense of what is this "Scandinavian state of mind".

A lot of you are going to hate this song. Actually, most of you will probably hate this song, but if just one of you likes it half as much as I do, our collective glee will more than balance any cringing dismay.
I'll admit, the vocals here are bad, really bad. They're so bad in fact, I'd argue that they wrap all the way back around to good. Then again, I'm also a fan of Titus Andronicus. The off-key crooning in this song is just so...well it's indescribable. Equally indescribable is what anyone could find to be remotely enjoyable about this song. And I can't stop listening to it.

A 3-year-old boy bitten by an Akita inside a Lowe's Home Improvement store in Murrieta is being treated for injuries suffered in the attack and the dog has been quarantined.
The dog bit the child in the head area on Saturday, Dec. 29, inflicting serious damage on his jaw, neck, forehead and right eye, according to the Murrieta Police Department.
The child received around 50 stitches at Inland Valley Medical Center in Wildomar and was later transferred to a San Diego area children's hospital, said Mo Middleton, animal control supervisor with Animal Friends of the Valleys.
The owner of the dog, who had the animal on a leash, left the store following the incident, sparking a brief search that ended on Sunday when the owner, a 62-year-old man who has not been identified by the department, was contacted by a Murrieta detective.
"He did have a conversation with one of the parents and the child and then left quickly," said Murrieta Police Lt. Ron Driscoll, talking about the aftermath of the biting incident. "He should have stayed. … Why he left, that I don't know."
Middleton said the dog, a 3-year-old purebred Akita named Chester, could be immediately euthanized if the owner decides to waive his right to a vicious dog hearing.
Middleton said it's unclear if a hearing will be held, however, because there is still an open investigation by the police department. In addition, she said, they are investigating an unconfirmed report that the dog may have been involved in another biting incident.
Dogs that have been quarantined are generally held for 10 days. If they are released, there may be conditions requiring the owner to muzzle the dog in public or employ other safeguards. In the event the dog is determined to be a "danger to the public," it will be put down.
Driscoll confirmed that the report of a previous bite is being looked into.
Asked about the possibility of criminal charges against the owner, Driscoll said the case is under investigation.
The incident has prompted a vigorous online debate about people who bring non-service dogs into stores, which Lowe's does not officially allow.
"Our policy is that for safety and sanitary reasons, only service animals are allowed in the store, and that's nationwide," said Karen Cobb, a Lowe's spokeswoman.
Cobb said there should be a sign posted at the front entrance of every store that makes that policy known. She added Lowe's is cooperating with local authorities who are looking into this situation.
She said Lowe's has reached out to the family, but did not provide any further details as to the nature of the outreach.
On Monday evening, Middleton said she plans to meet with the dog's owner on Tuesday.

Shannen Doherty (Charmed, Beverly Hills) genuine signed autograph 10x8 COA 105
Shannen Doherty's breakout role came when she was cast to star as Brenda Walsh in the Aaron Spelling-produced TV series Beverly Hills, 90210 in 1990. In 1991 and 1992 her portrayal of Brenda earned her a Young Artist Award nomination for Best Young Actress Starring in a Television Series. In 2004, E! placed Brenda at number ten on their list of the 50 Most Wicked Women of Prime Time. Following reported on-set friction with her co-stars as well as bad publicity generated by her off-screen behaviour, Doherty was fired from the show and left at the end of the fourth season in 1994. Doherty's character, Brenda, was written off the show as moving to London to attend school at the Royal Academy for Dramatic Arts.
While the character's absence was originally described as only being for a year, she never actually returned to the original series despite being mentioned from time to time during the show's remaining seasons (though she would reprise the role of Brenda later in the The CW's updated version of the show in 2008). She was replaced with former Saved by the Bell star Tiffani Thiessen, who played bad girl character Valerie Malone. Her departure from the series was reportedly acrimonious, however, and her career afterward was somewhat spotty, marked for the most part by made-for-TV movies, though she also had a lead role in Kevin Smith's 1995 film Mallrats.
In 1998, Spelling cast her in another TV series, Charmed, in which she played lead character Prue Halliwell, the oldest of three sisters who discover they are witches. Doherty also directed several episodes. At the end of the third season, Doherty left the show in 2001, resulting in her character's death, and the introduction of Rose McGowan's replacement lead character Paige Matthews. Reportedly, the reason for her departure was because of tensions between Doherty and co-star Alyssa Milano. Though she had left the show long before it ended, she continued to own five percent of the rights to the series.
Doherty was also twice nominated for the Saturn Award, Best Genre TV Actress for her portrayal of the character Prue, in 1999 and 2000 respectively. In 2007, AOL named Prue Halliwell the 10th greatest witch in television history.

The crisis in eastern Ukraine is far from over.
On Monday, the moderate mayor of Kharkiv, the country's second-largest city, was shot while riding his bicycle. Pro-Russian separatists have seized another government building in the region, and some are holding hostage a group of European military observers. The United States, convinced the chaos is all being driven by Moscow, slapped new sanctions on top Russian officials Monday, and the Europeans will probably go along.
To understand what's driving this crisis, though, it's necessary to look at the region the way its residents see it, not just the way it appears to the outside world.
The dominant Western narrative is all too familiar: It's good guys vs. bad guys. Russian aggression against Ukraine and covert backing for separatist groups are the main sources of conflict, creating a very real danger that southeastern Ukraine may soon erupt into full-scale war or split off and join Russia. Throw in the kidnappings of journalists, targeted killings of local politicians and residents and renewed Ukrainian military operations against the separatists, and the whole region appears to be in flames—and it's all Moscow's doing. As U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry put it over the weekend, the Kremlin is behind the "distraction, deception and destabilization" in eastern Ukraine.
Unfortunately, the real story is much more complicated, and it has as much to do with the murky nature of Ukrainian politics as it does with Russia's blatant meddling. On one level, the clashes in eastern Ukraine are just the latest battle between the country's powerful and fractious oligarchs, for whom business interests—not the fate of Ukraine—are always priority number one.
By JON RALSTON
By ANDREA LEVERE and EZRA LEVIN
By GENE B. SPERLING
The good news is that the separatists are actually quite isolated, according to recent accounts by the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe's monitoring mission in eastern Ukraine. Even Kerry, despite his stern rhetoric, has indicated that fewer than 30 buildings have been occupied. And a recent poll conducted by the Kyiv International Institute of Sociology found that the majority of southeastern Ukraine's residents do not favor joining Russia; 70 percent want to remain in Ukraine, and only 15 percent support secession; 60 percent do not approve of armed separatists seizing government buildings.
There is no doubt that Russia has been trying to destabilize Ukraine in the wake of the annexation of Crimea and that both sides could yet tumble into full-scale military conflict. But Russia is not the only factor shaping public opinion toward the central government in Kyiv, the Ukrainian capital.
From the outside, the Kyiv government is usually depicted as a band of selfless reformers. In fact, the differences in how it is perceived across the country are vast, with 78 percent of western Ukrainians but only 16 percent of easterners registering their approval in one recent poll.Easterners (and southerners, for that matter) see a cabinet dominated by former prime minister and current presidential candidate Yulia Timoshenko and her Fatherland political party, whose base of support is in the pro-European west of the country. Both the Party of Regions and Vitaly Klitchko's UDAR party refused to join the government, leaving it dangerously low on eastern support.

In an effort to save money and get the most out of my footwear investments, I have found some ways to repurpose last season's sandals. Now I can really enjoy those funky flip flops I begged my husband to buy me, even if no one else in the world wants to wear them.
Here are some quick tips to help you reuse, recycle, and re-enjoy some of your favorite summer shoes:
New SandalsYou could just give your sandals a facelift to make them look new again. Add rhinestones, strings of beads, hemp, fabric ties, or whatever else you want to the shoes. You could also use fabric paint to change them to a different color, or you could replace the straps with a new material.
Make the sandals a perfect fit for your wardrobe, and you will know for a fact that they are one-of-a-kind.
Picture Frames
Why not make your shoes into cute displays for photos in your home? This will only work for sandals with a relatively flat soles and minimal straps. You can us a box knife to cut out a rectangle to fit a picture in, and then you can set the picture in the shoe with a little piece of glass on top. You could get this glass from another picture frame, or you could use clear plastic instead. Most craft stores will sell thin sheets of Plexiglas that you can cut with scissors or a box knife. That will make the perfect cover.
If the edges around the photo look a little jagged, glue on some rope or part of the straps. Then just add a triangular piece of matting or cardboard to the back for support, and you can put this super chic frame on any table in your home.
Coat Racks
You could easily turn your sandals into hooks for hanging things. Just get a piece of wood to secure the shoes to, and then use screws or glue to put them toe-down on the board. Then you can buy some decorative clothes hangers and put one in the toe of each shoe.
You could also buy a hook to secure in the toe, but that kind of defeats the purpose of the shoe in general. Try to incorporate the footwear as much as you can. Add a wire to the back so you can hang this on the wall, and you should be good to go. Something like this may even be good enough to win you a scholarship if you play your cards right.
At first glance, a pair of shoes on a table may seem out of place. If you clean them up nicely though, they can look like actual coasters for your drinks. Glue a circular piece of cork board to the inside of the shoe, and you will be able to use your sandals just like you would any other coasters. Who knows – you may start a trend for the neighborhood!
There are plenty of ways to repurpose last season's sandals if you just think outside the shoebox. Figure out a way to really let these shoes shine, and you will not have to worry about throwing away perfectly good shoes.

It is Our Responsibility to Examine and Change Society
The paradox of education is precisely this - that as one begins to become conscious, one begins to examine the society in which he is being educated. The purpose of education, finally, is to create in a person the ability to look at the world for himself, to make his own decisions, to say to himself this is black or this is white, to decide for himself whether there is a God in heaven or not. To ask questions of the universe, and then learn to live with those questions, is the way he achieves his own identity. But no society is really anxious to have that kind of person around. What societies really, ideally, want is a citizenry which will obey the rules of society. If a society succeeds in this, that society is about to perish. The obligation of anyone who thinks of himself as responsible is to examine society and try to change it and to fight it - at no matter what risk. -- James Baldwin

At a recent Voting Power in Practice annual workshop organised by the Voting Power and Procedures (VPP) research programme at the London School of Economics and Political Science (LSE), 22 voting theory specialists voted to select the "best voting procedure" to elect one out of three or more candidates.
Each voter chose from a list of 18 nominated voting procedures as many as she/he approved of. From a possible maximum of 22 votes, First Past The Post (FPTP) – also known as Plurality Voting – received no votes. Approval Voting won the contest with 15 votes. The Alternative Vote (AV) took second place with 10 votes.
For a detailed analysis of the vote, download at http://www.lse.ac.uk/vpp "And the loser is... Plurality Voting", a draft of the paper to be published by Springer in the forthcoming book of the VPP workshop proceedings.
The UK referendum on 5 May was an important consideration in the choice of the VPP workshop topic, Assessing Alternative Voting Procedures. Its focus on single member constituency systems parallels the single member district system in use in the UK for elections to the House of Commons since 1950.

The SDD range of delays are the same as found in the DW and the DS-8.Kenneth wrote:The one thing that sets the DW apart from the rest, to me, is the DELAY. Holy moses. One of the coolest, easiest to use, and useful delays I have ever come across. I wish Korg would release that delay as a pedal or module, I would be the first to pre order.
I've owned both, the ESQ/SQ have some synthesis features missing from the DW, and more waveforms, but the DW is a great board to actually play.

loss of CAPEX and time
in your process automation project using the traditional approach, according to project experts.
As a plant builder or EPC, your main challenges in international projects are finalizing your project on time and within budget. In the chemical and petrochemical industry, the project lead and project execution team can be detached from each other by a long distance. As a main instrument vendor (MIV), with a global presence, we are able to support your project timeline and help manage costs by providing local project management expertise.
Utilize us as the Main Instrument Vendor (MIV) in your process industry projects. Let us be your expert partner from FEED (Front End Engineering Design) to operation. No matter what kind of chemical or petrochemical plant we support you as one partner who takes full responsibility for all related services and enables optimal project execution. Our scope embraces all necessary offerings to fulfill all your requirements:
All instrumentation and related services
One partner who will ensure consistency and avoid ambiguities
Experienced professionals who reduce changes for improved timeline accuracy
Superior processes, methodologies and tools to support efficiency and repeatability for risk reduction
Standardization provides limitation of variances and reduces complexity of execution and minimizes MRO costs
Click through these graphics and learn how we can handle your process industry projects.
Today's approach, using multiple suppliers of measurement devices, is inherently complex. Evaluation of multiple bid packages, communication to a vast array of contacts, coordination and execution of multiple different processes and procedures result in increased effort, inefficiency, and risk to your project. Partnering with us as a MIV means all instrumentation from measurement transmitters to gauges, accessories and services will be provided in a comprehensive deliverable.
Single point of contact for sales and execution reduces complexity and risks.
Technology and safety consultants will be on board in an early stage allowing enough time to work on best fit solutions.
The fundamentals of a MIV are based on early engagement, integrated teams and clear communication to reduce project uncertainty, risk and costs. There is still time to think about and discuss certain technical solutions during the early phase of a project. This prevents last-minute changes on instrumentation as the best-fit technology is chosen from the outset.
Getting documentation e.g. CAD drawings fast, for earlier model review and piping schematics to start production earlier and shorten timeline.
Reducing the risk of changes in instrumentation during the execution phase because the right technology was selected the first time.
Once the project is finalized and the chemical plant is up and running, we are still at your service throughout the plant's whole lifecycle. As your MIV, we not only provide support during the project and execution phase but also during the operation phase. This comprehensive approach reduces the interfaces and gaps that occur during operation when having multiple suppliers.
Save time with quick documentation that is accessible anytime and anywhere, also via mobile.
Reduce costs with simplified procurement, storage and MRO processes.
Our Endress+Hauser experts have decades of industry experience and a detailed understanding of your manufacturing processes. This wealth of skills together with our unique project management tooling landscape, enables them to help you make your project a success. That's why we at Endress+Hauser call ourselves the people for process automation - meet John Haveman, one of those people.
Your success is our main objective. No matter how large-scale your project in the process industry is or how many partners are involved, our experts will support your global process industry projects with their profound application know-how and project management expertise. We provide the support you need to mitigate project risks from FEED through to execution and the duration of operation.
of your project timeline saved using our electronic data exchange, considering 800 devices to order, compared to the traditional way.
of your time saved for creation of engineering documents including e.g. CAD drawings when using our engineering tool considering 800 devices to define, compared to the traditional way.
saved on spare parts when partnering with us as a MIV considering an instruments project value of 700,000 US$

All New Ignis
It's a small car that makes a big impression.
It's a light SUV with loads of space.
It's spirited, stylish and totally customisable.
It comes with multimedia Sat Nav,
Apple CarPlay® and Android AutoTM.
And it's always up for adventure.
New Ignis. It's unlike anything.
Design - Unlike anything
First impressions count and the Ignis knows it. The exterior of the vehicle is a seamless blend of retro styling with modern features, continuing to stay true to traditional Suzuki design elements.
Boasting a wider, higher SUV stance, Ignis is guaranteed to turn heads wherever you take it. An impressive ground clearance of 180mm and generous approach and departure angles means you can take it on any adventure on the road. It's perfect for city traffic, too, as you'll sit up higher for improved vision and awareness while the bold front headlights give the Ignis a distinctive look.
That's Ignis: different from top to toe.
The Ignis Interior
One of the coolest things about your new Ignis is that you get to decide how it looks. Against the bold contrast of the two-tone black and white dash; instrument panel; glove compartment and door trim; you get to choose your own distinctive and eye-catching colour accents across the centre gear console, interior trims and door handles.
The overall effect is retro, yet refined; classic, yet contemporary.
Ignis also provides the latest technology features rarely seen in any other vehicle of its price range. Multimedia Sat Nav with Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™ give you knowledge, entertainment, control and convenience, all at the push of a button. Steering wheel controls put decisions at your fingertips while cruise control lets you set your own steady pace.
So plan your trip, cruise along, call your friends, play your favourite music.
Comfort and Cargo
The Ignis cabin is user-friendly and super comfortable.
Less space to the engine compartment means more room inside. So stretch out your legs and feel the freedom. Elevated seating makes getting in and out much easier as well as creating a higher eye point for improved driver visibility and awareness.
Cup holders, bottle holders and door pockets are all within easy reach – front and rear. And whatever the season, whatever the conditions, the digital climate control air conditioner (on the GLX model) makes it a breeze to adjust your comfort level.
Ignis may be compact but it also comes with a generous storage capacity that allows cargo to be configured in a variety of different ways. In fact, by folding the rear seats down, a total luggage space volume of over 500L is achievable while the back seats in the GLX model can be slid forward to create even greater cargo space.
Performance and Protection
Harnessed through a new and improved engine, the Ignis is a joy to drive under all conditions as it balances power and fuel efficiency.
A new generation, stronger-but-lighter chassis provides a stable framework while reducing drag. A more rigid, yet lighter suspension smooths out shocks and enables more responsive and controlled handling, while large diameter tyres and a minimum turning radius of just 4.7m make Ignis easy to manoeuvre down narrow roads or in tight car parks.
Dual, front, side and curtain airbags are standard. Advanced accident-avoidance systems such as Electronic Stability Control (ESC) and Suzuki's unique Total Effective Control Technology help keep accidents at bay while the latest braking technology (ABS, EBD and BA) significantly increase your stopping confidence and control.
Pedestrians are protected too: extra shock absorption is built into the hood, front wiper area, front bumper and front bonnet tip to reduce collision impact.
Free Extras
Included with
every used car from Jarvis.
Used Car Free Extras
- Free 3 Year Unlimited Kilometre Jarvis Warranty
- Free 3 Year RAA Road Service

Dressing in Pink
Papa always makes cornbread dressing. It is always delicious. It is also, apparently, always dyed with food coloring. Cornbread is already yellow, of course, but there are other ingredients, and I guess Papa likes the end product to remain as yellow as fresh-from-the-oven cornbread?
However, for whatever reason this year--it was busy, and it was hectic, and there were two little girls screeching around underfoot in a house that's normally only peopled by the voices of Fox News--Papa reached for the little bottle of yellow food coloring and picked up the red instead.
And so the dressing was pink this year:
Now, by the time the rest of our family arrived for Christmas dinner, Papa had put a spin on the story so that now it read that he decided to dye the dressing red this year, in order to be "Christmas-y." And it certainly didn't hurt the taste any, and it did look rather festive on the plate:
However, I was there, and I know the real story. And now, so do you.

Cute story about the cornbread - so happy that you caught it on film.

My Matt has this additional theory about Fox News, as well (other than the theory that it's well beloved by senior citizens, which is SO true).
He believes that Fox News is so well-beloved by senior citizens because they've messed with their frequency controls to broadcast themselves at a louder volume than other channels. Commercials do the same, you know. Matt claims that old people just sort of subconsciously notice that they can actually HEAR Fox News, and that therefore, they love it.

YOUR Matt? He's MY Matt! And I'll just claim Papa for myself while I'm at it. He's MY Papa! You can have the gallows.
- January 1, 2010 at 9:30 PM
Thanks for sharing the pic! Pink cornbread is twice as priceless when shown to the entire world.

I can live with the gallows.
And the cornbread might very well be pink every Christmas now, because that's what it might take for Papa to avoid admitting that it was an accident.

Supporting your Student
It can be difficult for parents to support their student from afar.
Stay connected-Listen but stay away from giving too much advice. College is a time for your student to learn about themselves and solve their own problems.
Ask questions- Show that you are interested in what your student is doing, how they are adjusting, or what they are learning about. Even if they do not talk in-depth about anything every time, they will know that when they do need someone to talk to you- you are there for them.
Expect change- Your student is learning about themselves
Know campus resources- Become familiar with the resources on campus so you can guide your student if necessary.
Try to avoid giving too much advice and trust your student- College is a time when your student is learning to be independent and make decisions on their own. They will make mistakes; it is a part of development and learning. Trust that they will be able to solve most of their own problems, and be ready for when they really need your help.

What a way to kick off the Playoffs. I have never seen, rather, the NBA has never witnessed this type of surprises.
For the first time in NBA Playoff history, the top 2 seeds of a conference lose their Game One's. The Memphis Grizzlies lived up to their words, and beat the Spurs without Rudy Gay for a 101 – 98 thriller. What was not thrilling though was the loss of my beloved LA Lakers, which I still don't understand how, but they somehow found a way to lose to the New Orleans Hornets, 109-100.
The other games were close, and only the Orlando Magic was the upper seed (#4) to lose to the Atlanta Hawks.
Anyway, let's take a look at how, for a change, there was no game that was one sided:
Eastern Conference
Indiana Pacers [8] vs Chicago Bulls [1] (99-104)
Derrick Rose said that it wouldn't be easy.
He was damn right.
With the critics and analysts saying that the Pacers' record isn't good enough to be in the playoffs, they proved otherwise. Putting up a challenge in the entire night, they just weren't able to finish the game right as they started it. Derrick Rose showed why he should be the league's MVP (39 points, 6 assists), leading the Bulls to end the game on a 16-1 run after trailing 98-88 with over 2 minutes left.
What to expect in Game 2: Expect Carlos Boozer to have a better game, and the rest of the Chicago Bulls to take the Pacers more seriously. Game Two should be Chicago's.
Philadelphia 76ers [7] vs Miami Heat [2] (89 – 97)
As expected, the Heat beat the Sixers. Also, the Sixers didn't give in easily. With a mediocre shooting game from LeBron James, and finally taking into the decoy role that he should have been doing all season in the last two minutes of the game, Dwayne Wade managed to score five of his 17 points in the last 2 minutes, securing the win for the Heat. The game kicked off with Philly leading 25-11, yet the Heat bounced back and managed to pull a 12 point lead in the fourth quarter, only for the Sixers to rally back one last time and cut the deficit to 1 point, yet Wade showed them who's boss, ending the game in favor of the upper seed. Let's not forget Chris Bosh putting on his A-game with those 25 points and 12 rebounds. The Sixers in general had a good game, but they simply can't match up with the Heat.
What to expect in Game 2: Another Miami Heat victory unless the Sixers find a way to stop both LeBron and Dwayne at the same time.
New York Knicks [6] vs Boston Celtics [3] (85-87)
I had a feeling this series would be good. I just never thought the games would be this good.
As great as the rivalry was Game 1. Carmelo Anthony didn't impress as much, Amar'e Stoudemire was awesome, and I'm worried about that Chauncey Billups injury. The New York trio weren't good enough to beat the Celtics, where Ray Allen shone again with 24 points on 15 shots, including that late 3 that won them the game. It was an exciting game, yet the series took an unfortunate turn for the Knicks with Billups' injury at the end of the game and is questionable for Game 2.
What to expect in Game 2: If the Knicks don't feed the ball more to Stoudemire, and Billups not coming back (no offense to Toney Douglas), expect a Celtics victory again.
Atlanta Hawks [5] vs Orlando Magic [4] (103-93)
I haven't seen a one man performance like Dwight Howard's in a while. 31 points in the first half? One would think the Magic were dominating the game! *Annoying buzz* Wrong answer. Despite those 31 points, the Atlanta Hawks were outplaying the Orlando Magic.
Other than Dwight Howard's 46 points and 19 rebounds, there was nothing really to see in the Magic. And they said that Jason Collins was going to bother Howard. Jameer Nelson had a slow start in the first half, but finished strong with 27 points. But that's about it.
Joe Johnson, Jamal Crawford and co. put on a strong game, and seem to be confident about themselves given they won the season series 3-1. Why not? They played big after a not-so-good first quarter.
What to expect: The Defensive Player of the Year for the third year in a row can't go any bigger than those 46 points, but his teammates assumingly would step up their game. Orlando tie the series.
Western Conference
Memphis Grizzlies [8] vs San Antonio Spurs [1] (101-98)
Memphis rested their starters for the last 4 games to make sure they are ready AND end up with the Spurs in a playoff matchup. They could've went up to sixth and played the Dallas Mavericks, who they owned in the regular season. Yet they chose to stay 8th.
They lived up to it. Big time.
Zach Randolph and Marc Gasol put on a show, and despite the game taking lead changes at the end, the Grizzlies were able to get their first playoff win for the franchise. As an eighth seeded team against the best team in the West. Now that's good.
Yet no need to worry, I still think that, despite my hatred for the Spurs, they'll still win this series in six games.
What to expect: San Antonio bouncing back like they always do. Spurs win. Very hard for the Grizzlies to pull off another stunner at the AT&T Center.
New Orleans Hornets [7] vs Los Angeles Lakers [2] (109-100)
I watched the game the other night, and I still couldn't understand. Why would Pau Gasol play so horribly like that? Kobe Bryant was the man for LA with those 34 points and those amazing shots, and Ron Artest put up a decent game with that double-double, but seriously Pau Gasol, WTF?! 2 from 9, 6 rebounds?! And you wonder why championship-less center Stoudemire calls you soft? Get your act together! Andrew Bynum had 13 points and 9 rebounds, but wasn't as good as he was in the streak. Kobe couldn't pull it off by himself this time. And LA's defense sucked big time.
Chris Paul, the player who came second to Kobe in MVP voting back in 08, scored 33 points, had 14 assists, 7 rebounds and 4 steals and played around the Lakers defense at free will. The way the Hornets were knocking down those one handed layups was as if they were playing alone. THE LAKERS SHOULD HAVE DOMINATED THE DAMN GAME! The Hornets don't have David West. Emeka Okafor had a bad game with more fouls than points. Aaron Gray and Carl Landry outplay Pau Gasol???!!! IN WHAT WORLD?!
It's a good thing Kobe called out Gasol today. He seriously has to start playing like a 2 time champ.
What to expect: I still think the Lakers are going to win this series in 5. So expect a Lakers win.
Portland Trail Blazers [6] vs Dallas Mavericks [3] (81-89)
It felt so good to see the Mavs win. They got such a good team that I'll never understand why they just can't win in the playoffs and play the way they play the regular season. Everyone undermines Dirk Nowitzki and thinks he chokes in the playoffs. Really? He's one of 4 guys in NBA history to average 25 points and 10 rebounds in the playoffs. Don't forget those performances against the Suns and Spurs back in the day. And whoever tells me that he choked in the 06 Finals, we all know what happened then. So enough about that.
I enjoyed more than anything my favorite non-Laker player being the X-Factor of the game. That's right, 38-year old Jason Kidd had 24 points, including 6 3-pointers, and with Nowitzki's 27 points, the Mavs were finally able to quiet those who are foreseeing an upset in this series and pull off a well deserved win.
What to expect: This series is puzzling, and I'm not expecting Kidd to have another 24 point game. But I still think the Mavs are going to win both at home. So another Mavs win.
Denver Nuggets [5] vs Oklahoma City Thunder [4] (103-107)
This could easily be the most exciting series in the playoffs. Why not? The youngest and most athletic players in the NBA going at each other? The leading scorer? The team that the Ewing Theory seems to work perfectly on? Yeah, I want this series.
Kevin Durant (41 points) and Russell Westbrook (31 points) combined for one of the best guard performances so far and were able to overcome the winningest team since the All Star break.
Kendrick Perkins had 4 points, but 2 of them gave the Thunder the lead for good.
Denver had a good game, and despite dominating the NBA since the Carmelo Anthony trade, they just can't seem to beat the Thunder. What I like about Denver is that they had eight players with at least 8 points, led by Nene Hilario's 22, which makes them a threat given you can't tell who is going to dominate the game at any given night.
What to expect: I honestly don't know. This is one of the series where any team can win on any given night because they are so young. I'll go with the Thunder on this one, although the Nuggets are going to give them hell again.

Lucas Corso is a book detective, a mercenary hired to hunt down rare editions for wealthy and unscrupulous clients. When a well-known bibliophile is found hanged, leaving behind part of the original manuscript of Alexandre Dumas's The Three Musketeers, Corso is brought in to authenticate the fragment. He is soon drawn into a swirling plot involving devil worship, occult practices, and swashbuckling derring-do among a cast of characters bearing a suspicious resemblance to those of Dumas's masterpiece. Aided by a mysterious beauty named after a Conan Doyle heroine, Corso travels from Madrid to Toledo to Paris in pursuit of a sinister and seemingly omniscient killer.
Pre-reading: Having greatly enjoyed The Three Musketeers and The Count of Monte Cristo, I was interested to see how another author can relate Dumas' works to another novel.
Post-reading: While I did learn a lot about Dumas, I wasn't too keen on the book's plot.
Before I read this book, I didn't know anything at all about Alexandre Dumas. Sure, I loved his books, but that ended there. I was definitely surprised when I read that he had worked with a lot of collaborators and published so much more books than I had originally thought. This book gives an insight on how Dumas lived and how the people viewed him. If you've read a single Dumas book, liked it, and would like to know more about Dumas, you may want to pick this book up.
However, the plot wasn't that satisfying for me. It felt like the author wanted so many things, which resulted to an incoherent storyline. Strewn about the pages were several unnecessary details (for me, at least). For a mystery book, it was lacking in the 'thrill' department. However, I still went through the pages quickly enough as I wanted to know how the story ended.
It's a good book for learning more about Dumas and revisiting his other books. But if you're up for a good mystery read, um, hmm. But that's just me. :)
Plot: 2.5/5
Writing: 4/5
Book Love: 2/5

If you're a WebOS developer and would like to be able to notify your users when a new version of your app is available, a very efficient way to do that is to use the Yahoo Query Language.
Take a look at this page:
It shows a YQL query to select the version of the app com.chofter.palmdevutils, giving the following result
{ "query": { "count": 1, "created": "2011-10-07T14:58:53Z", "lang": "en-US", "results": { "p": "Version: 1.3.0" } } }
Fetching this JSON object requires far less data that reading the entire HTML page and parsing it yourself. To see the final link that you would use, copy the link from the bottom of the Yahoo page, like this one http://query.yahooapis.com/v1/public/yql?q=select%20*%20from%20html%20where%20url%3D%22https%3A%2F%2Fdeveloper.palm.com%2Fappredirect%2F%3Fpackageid%3Dcom.chofter.palmdevutils%22%20and%0A%20%20%20%20%20%20xpath%3D'%2F%2Fdiv%5B%40id%3D%22app-price-system-version%22%5D%2Fp%5B3%5D'&format=json&callback=

Unfinished Business: Racial Equality in American History, by Michael Klarman
From the University of Virginia, "U.Va. Law Professor Michael Klarman's Book Explores Uneven Road of Racial Equality in America," 19 November 2007 — In his new book, "Unfinished Business: Racial Equality in American History," University of Virginia law professor Michael Klarman traces the long and turbulent history of race relations in America. The book follows up Klarman's "From Jim Crow to Civil Rights: The Supreme Court and the Struggle for Racial Equality," which in 2005 won the prestigious Bancroft Prize, one of the most coveted honors in the field of history.
The slow judicial progress of racial equality in the United States shows a side of history many don't know, Klarman said. "Americans in general are deficient in their historical knowledge," he said. "I have students all the time tell me that they're just shocked at how recently things were as bad as they were."
In his book, published by Oxford University Press, Klarman looks at a judicial system historically in tune with the mores of the times. "It used to be accepted throughout the United States that holding property in human beings was OK," Klarman said. "That wasn't just a Southern view; if you go back before the Revolutionary War, it's what most Northerners thought," he said. As Klarman points out in his book, even Quakers in Pennsylvania held slaves.
"Unfinished Business" also shows how politicians and judges are driven by popular opinion to modify or abandon their own beliefs. "For us it seems obvious: The right thing to do was to end slavery, but it was always much more complicated," Klarman said. He explained that this attitude continued well into the 20th century. Franklin Delano Roosevelt understood that "if he had promoted civil rights legislation it would have destroyed his administration. You can pursue your own agenda, but if it's unpopular it could ruin your capacity to get anything else done," he said.
According to Klarman, the majority decision in the 1954 Supreme Court ruling on Brown v. Board of Education might have been different had the case come to the court earlier. "If public opinion is set against a certain reform, there's just no way you can make it stick, and the Supreme Court understands that," he said. "Justice Frankfurter was very candid: If Brown had come up 10 years earlier he would have voted the other way because he didn't think anyone would accept it."
Klarman noted that, in the aftermath of Brown, widespread exposure in the media, particularly television in the 1960s, helped galvanize public opinion in favor of integration and against the violent resistance of white supremacists. "What mattered hugely was that in 1963 everyone had a television and in 1953 almost nobody did. I think it's very possible that the Civil Rights Movement plays out very differently had it not been for television," he said.
Progress in racial equality, as Klarman sees it, is still slow. "As late as 1990 there was not a single jurisdiction in the South of all the counties and cities and thousands of elected officials … where a black person represented a majority white constituency." Klarman noted Virginia's role in breaking through this electoral barrier. "The fact that Doug Wilder, an African-American, could win a statewide election in a state that's only 18 percent black is pretty good."
Now, according to Klarman, the emergence of a large and growing Latino-American population nationwide and Asian-American population in the West complicates the issue for African-Americans. "We've seen in the last couple of election cycles both parties trying hard to adopt policies that were seen as attractive to Latinos. They have become the swing voters from the perspective of the Democratic and Republican parties. That disadvantages African-Americans [because] the Democratic Party can take black votes for granted," he said.
Despite the obvious advances, Klarman said that progress in racial equality is uneven. "Fifty years ago nobody could have dreamed that the last two secretaries of state would be black, the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff would be black, and those are incredible changes," he said, adding, "On the other hand, Hurricane Katrina told us what life is like for a lot of poor black people in cities and we haven't done much to fix it, and I don't think we'd tolerate it if those were white people."
Klarman sees no end to the unfinished business of racial equality. "The issues have changed and the terms of debate have changed, but race issues are still everywhere

Recently Stanford's Clayman Institute for Gender Research published an interview with a Stanford neuroscientist about male vs. female brains.
I'm not going to lie: when I clicked the link I was expecting the usual attention-grabbing, rabble-rousing crap I've come to expect when I see a headline like that.
I was prepared for some serious eye rolling and frustrated groaning in response to the inevitable logical errors, overreaching conclusions, and other neuro-nonsense. Especially given how much gender has been on my mind lately (what with my recent foray into fatherhood and the whole #womanspace thing).
This certainly wouldn't have been the first time a neuroscientist has railed against silly neuroscientific claims in gender research.
Instead I got a well thought out, sane, clear-headed, and scientifically sound interview. I was especially pleased because the neuroscientist in question is a friend, colleague, and collaborator of mine: Prof. Josef Parvizi (co-author on one of my most-cited first-author papers). I'm especially proud to call him a collaborator after reading this. Seriously, this is a great interview and Josef just nails it.
The whole piece is short, but concise, and a great reference to counter some of the more common neuro-gender crap. They tackle three myths; I've quoted my favorite parts below.
Gender Brain Myth #1: Brain size matters
...if absolute brain size were all that mattered, whales and elephants, both of which have much larger brains than humans, would outwit men and women.
Gender Brain Myth #2: Women and men have different brains due to estrogen and testosterone
...if estrogen and testosterone did shape the brain in different ways, it is an unsubstantiated, logical leap to conclude that such differences cause, "...men to occupy top academic positions in the sciences and engineering or top positions of political or social power, while women are hopelessly ill-equipped for such offices."
Gender Brain Myth #3: Men are naturally better at math
According to Parvizi, this logic is flawed: "Differences seen in cognitive tests do not necessarily provide direct evidence that those differences are in fact innate."
Finally, I love the following. It should be copy-and-pasted into any online argument. Or shouted repeatedly at any TV/magazine puff-piece writer.
"...if we are to entertain the idea that humans 'experience' life differently, and that different experiences mold the brain function differently, then we must also seriously consider that gender (along with class, ethnicity, age, and many other factors) would also contribute to this experience, and that they will contribute to molding of the brain...
So if women and men have systematically different life experiences and face dissimilar expectations from birth, then we would expect that their brains would become different (even if they are not innately dissimilar), through these different life experiences. Even if neuroscientists see differences in the brains of grown men and women, it does not follow that these differences are innate and unchangeable.
For instance, if girls are expected to be more adept at language, and are placed in more situations that require communication with others, it follows that the networks of the brain associated with language could become more efficient in women. Conversely, if boys receive more toy trucks and Lego's, are given greater encouragement in math and engineering classes, and eventually take more STEM (science, technology, engineering and math) courses, it follows that the sections of the brain associated with mathematics could become more efficient in men...
The tricky part is that we do not make the mistake of taking account of these differences as evidence for biological determinism."

How does a non-rechargeable battery work?
In its most basic form, a battery is an electrochemical cell that converts chemical energy into electrical energy by means of negative and positive electrodes. An electrolyte - essentially a liquid that conducts electricity – facilitates the movement of ions between these electrodes, producing an electrical current via the battery terminals.
Non-rechargeable batteries are disposable as they are designed to be used only once (primary). Once the reactants inside are used up in chemical reactions, the output gradually falls. Once all the reactants have been used up, these batteries are no longer able to supply electrical energy.
Types of non-rechargeable batteries
Used in so many different applications across industry, commerce and domestic settings, batteries are used to provide power sources in a whole of host of places, including personal computers, vehicles, handheld devices and white goods. They can be categorised by letter designations, voltage and chemistry.
Common types of primary batteries include:
- AA batteries - one of the most common standard battery sizes available on the market today. They're cylindrical in shape and readily available.
- AAA batteries - also cylindrical in shape but smaller in size than an AA battery.
- Coin button batteries - small round batteries that are usually used to power small portable electronic devices and watches.
- 9 Volt batteries - square in shape, known for use in smoke detectors.
Typical battery non-rechargeable battery chemistries include:
- Alkaline - Very reliable and inexpensive battery chemistry that has a good long-lasting shelf life. They are able to provide a high current output and have a good high and low temperature performance.
- Lithium - The batteries can be more expensive in comparison to alkalines but have a higher energy storage density. They're suitable for high current demand applications and the output voltage is constant during discharge. Lithiums have a very long shelf life, with loss of capacity of approximately 0.5% per year.
How Are Batteries Maintained?
Maintaining batteries is important to help ensure the life of the battery. Keeping the batteries stored properly and in a dry, cool place – not necessarily in the refrigerator – is a good idea. It is also important to check the batteries you have in your devices periodically, as they may be getting to the point of corroding. Replace batteries regularly, even before they wear out fully, so you do not have to worry about this.

All files: http://sourceforge.net/projects/punix/files/betas/
TI-89: punix-89-beta5.89u
TI-92+: punix-9x-beta5.9xu
Source: punix-beta5.tgz
New section in the README file:
What is new in Beta 5?
This is the first beta to run on real hardware! I am currently running Punix on my TI-92+. It's still highly incomplete, but the hardware drivers have been proven to work correctly on the Real Thing. As a real calculator has limited power (batteries), this release now supports power-off with the key combinations 2nd-ON or Diamond-ON.
This beta also includes a short clip from The Blue Danube Waltz (to demonstrate the audio capabilities) as well as preliminary grayscale support. The console font has been anti-aliased to take advantage of this new grayscale support.
For those who are interested in running this release on their own calculator, here are some quick installation instructions. First make sure that you have a GraphLink cable (or a homemade variant) and TiLP installed on your computer. TI-Connect might work as an alternative to TiLP, but I've never used it so I can't say whether it works.
- Start TiLP and navigate to the directory that contains the .9xu/.89u file.
- Pull out one of the calculator's batteries.
- Reinsert the battery while holding the APPS key until the bootloader screen appears (It will say "Press I to install product code...").
- Press "I". The bootloader should say "Waiting to receive..."
- In TiLP, drag the appropriate .xxu file from the computer side to the calculator side. If you have a TI-92+, drag the .9xu file. If you have a TI-89, drag the .89u file. (Sorry, only these calculators are supported currently.)
- Wait for the transfer to complete. This should take a couple minutes.
- Punix will automatically boot after installation.
Please be aware that Punix does not have an "Auto Power Down" (APD) feature yet, so you will have to power down the calculator with 2nd-ON when it is not in use.
