I'm not asking anyone to divulge their private dark past or if any one has a criminal record but I'd like to know what your thoughts are on it? It seems to me religious groups have targeted the prison population. And I every now and then I hear some testimony of a former criminal turning his life around after finding God and now is accepted by some Christian community.
I know this is too general. Some of the things I'd like to see addressed are: Do you think it is harder for someone with criminal history to get accepted in an atheist community or a Christian community? If so is that a good thing or a bad thing and why? Do you think in an atheist community it is best not to talk about your dark past? Does it depend on the crime? Do you know anyone who has turned their life around with reason instead of faith?
The only semi-famous atheist I know who got into trouble breaking some laws is John W. Loftos who wrote "Why I became an Atheist". But if I remember correctly he was still a teenager when he did them, easily chucked off as youthful indiscretion. And right after that he found Jesus before he became an atheist.

Many cons get Christianity so they can become rich televangelists.
and to get out of prison on "good behavior"
a good question but i am not sure
As someone who worked as a corrections officer in the past I can say that a large majority of those who attended services inside prison walls did so more as a means to exchange inmate information and/or paraphernalia. Bibles are handy storage devices.
The inmates eventually got the female Wiccans into some real hot water with the prison authorities. Being naive and gullible is not advised when dealing with cons.
"Do you think it is harder for someone with criminal history to get accepted in an atheist community or a Christian community?"
I don't think it would make a difference. If I was aware of their criminal past I might be a little more suspicious of their sincerity for a period of time. Unfortunately there are a lot of 'bad habits' one can pick up while living in a den of thieves.
Been around the criminal element myself. I know of what you speak. And interestingly enough there aren't that many atheists in prison. Most of those who wind up there tend to have problems with critical thinking that tend to put them their in the first place and tend to make them susceptible to superstitious thought patterns and holding to traditional beliefs against evidence. These people often have strong egocentric patterns of thought that lead to manipulative conduct. But that is only the statistical majority and each person needs to be evaluated on a case-by-case basis. Some people wind up in prison even though they don't have the general personality common to the majority of criminals. Unfortunately, they have to adapt to the situation they find themselves in and, as you noted, pick up "bad habits" to survive. Our penal system is not our most laudable institutions at the moment. I'm sure we both could share horror stories.
Interesting topic. I'd speculate that criminal behavior was quelled much more quickly back in our band/tribal days, because evading detection and consequences was probably pretty difficult. I'll bet that a higher percentage of population can become criminals in larger societies as a result of being able to behave anonymously and covertly for long periods of time. When the concept of God enters the equation, more people feel "watched" and subject to possible consequences. So I'd guess that religion usually plays a more effective role than atheism in reducing criminal behavior.
I know that sounds discouraging, but maybe society will evolve better ways to detect and reduce criminal behavior. Maybe it'll be possible to make potential renegades feel more positively engaged with society at large, and feel more responsible to the society, without brainwashing them with God talk.
Just realized I didn't answer the question.
So paragraph 3 above would be:
Atheists have not yet created an institution (e.g. church) to "process" anyone, much less criminals, so I don't think we have enough cohesive support in place yet to effectively rehabilitate or help prevent criminal behavior. (Ouch!)
@ Pope Paul -
"Maybe it'll be possible to make potential renegades feel more positively engaged with society at large, and feel more responsible to the society, without brainwashing them with God talk."
Somehow or other. I think this is a crucial point. It's often said that in smaller communities there tends to be much less crime, and this would appear to be because we have to get on with our neighbours. If our neighbours are always changing, there's less incentive to behave well. Ultimately I think people have to be responsible to themselves and to the well-being of their own lives. If somebody is an out-and-out loner, then people are suspicious of loners, and they are under pressure to behave well because of this. We all live around people, and if we don't, it doesn't matter how we behave, morally speaking, because morality is a social issue.
RE: "in smaller communities there tends to be much less crime" - there are also studies out that indicate that one reaction to overcrowding is aberrant behavior.
It's true that a small community can be claustrophobic, for precisely the same reasons that there may be less crime, and therefore, uncomfortable.

The source of lysine in your ration, may or may not be something you've given serious consideration to. However, lysine is one of the first two limiting amino acids in a lactating cow's diet and plays a critical role in milk production potential.
Lysine is available to the animal through feedstuffs, with blood meal as one of the more common sources of lysine in the diet. The rising price of blood meal is giving dairy producers and nutritionists a reason to look at rumen protected lysine products. That's according to Andy Mueller, manager of dairy nutrition and technical support with Purina Animal Nutrition in Minnesota.
Selecting an alternative lysine source isn't as easy as it sounds though says Mueller. "Not all lysine sources are created equal and in the last several years the market has been flooded with protected lysine sources. As a result, determining the best source doesn't come without some serious evaluation."
But, Mueller says that too often, in his experience, dairy producers and nutritionists will look at price per ton when evaluating alternative lysine sources, but that's not the only thing to look at. "What are you getting per ton, is the better question to ask," he says. "Evaluating cost per gram of metabolizable lysine may provide better insights into what you're getting."
For example one source of lysine, USA Lysine™, is 44 percent metabolizable lysine, contains 200 grams per pound and costs $3.37 per pound, which figures out to be $0.017 per gram of metabolizable lysine. In comparison another lysine source, is 7.4 percent metabolizable lysine, contains 34 grams per pound, costs $1.43 per pound, but when you evaluate cost per gram of metabolizable lysine your spending $0.031.
"The cost per gram of metabolizable lysine you receive from a product can be a bit deceiving if you only look at cost per ton," notes Mueller.
With the price of blood meal tracking around $1,400 per ton, looking at alternative lysine sources is definitely appealing. Mueller does point out that evaluating blood meal on a metabolizable lysine basis shouldn't be overlooked either "At the current price of $1,400 per ton, the price per pound of metabolizable lysine from blood meal $10.62 while from USA Lysine™ it is less than $8.00.
"Alternative lysine sources definitely have the edge right now," notes Mueller.

I cannot completely upgrade from RC2 (188.8.131.52) to 4.4.0 final -- my package manager (urpmi; I run mandriva) refuses to install these two packages:
The error message is that notification-daemon-xfce (version 0.3.5) conflicts with notification-daemon-xfce-0.3.6-5mdv2007.0.i586. The 0.3.5 version of teh package came with 22.214.171.124; the 0.3.6 came with 4.4.0. A number of key gnome applications (evolution, gdm) depend on notification-daemon-0.3.5.
Is this a packaging error, or is 0.3.6 truely different from 0.3.5? Thanks for any insights.
I did some renaming of the binaries in 0.3.6, but that was to avoid conflicts. Btw you only need 1 daemon (or the gnome or the Xfce one), the real application dependency is libnotify.
Thanks Nick. I have got libnotify1-0.4.2 installed (cannot install libnotify1-0.4.3.2 as that requires notification-daemon-xfce-0.3.6 which concflicts with notification-daemon-0.3.5).
Could this lead to problems with auto-mouting of USB-keys and/or CD's? I notice that with 4.4.0 tehse do not automatically mount, whereas 4.4.RC2 auto-mounted (at least) USB keys without problem (open, thunar, click on Icon which appears in Thunar shortcuts and you'll see all files). Now I get the following message instead:
Failed to mount "sda1".
exo-mount: Cannot mount by HAL device UDI, because HAL support was disabled for this build.
Have been seraching for help, found these posts but am none the wiser.
If you get a notification, one of the 2 daemons in running, which is good enough. The notifications have nothing to do with the mount part of exo, it's an optional option.
And the warning is quite obvious: hal support was not enabled or no hal devel package was found during the configure stage of exo. (So you probably don't have the libexo-hal.so library.
I do have /usr/lib/libexo-hal-0.3.so.0 and /usr/lib/libexo-hal-0.3.so.0.4.0. These come from libexo, versions 0.3.1.8 and 0.3.2. My guess is that the the 0.3.2 version was built differently than the 0.3.1.8 version -- such is progress (and the concept of building from source is becoming another step more attractive, may be this is the time to check the Os-cillation installer). Will do some further digging and probably file a report with Mandriva
Got it!
I replaced the folowing packages from Mandriva's standard install by the ones prepared by Charles Edwards:
These packages apparently have been compiled with HAL support; clicking on the USB-key icon mounts it (provided a directory /mnt/key exists, but that is something I can fix). Note that just replacing exo and libexo was [i]not/i] sufficient.

Ravenous, carnivorous dinosaurs going to town on a group of terrified humans may seem like odd fodder for a children'd picture book, but Pakoto Martinez makes his Jurassic Park scenes adorable—even when the characters are on the verge of death.
Martinez has a few more of these illustrations on his blog. And, if you like the contrast between horror of the subject matter and his appealing style, it's worth scrolling through the rest of his art blog. I'd love to see these done as a larger series—and see how Martinez would visually tackle raptor attacks and torn off arms.

Dove debuted six body wash bottles in different shapes and sizes as part of the company's latest campaign to celebrate women and their bodies.
But rather than celebrate the campaign, social media handed Dove a backlash.
The bottles came in tall, short, round, curvy and straight with a slight, curvy shape. Dove said the unorthodox shapes were in line with its decade long "Real Beauty" campaign portraying and celebrating the diversity of women everywhere.
U.S. & World
"Each bottle evokes the shapes, sizes, curves and edges that combine to make every woman their very own limited edition," Dove said in an online statement."They're one of a kind–just like you. But sometimes we all need reminding of that."
The statement went on to says its own research revealed that "one in two women feels social media puts pressure on them to look a certain way. Thankfully, many women are fighting with us to spread beauty confidence."
Not everyone was fond of the campaign. Some mocked it for being unrealistic:
Others were a bit more practical and showed concern about their bathroom space:

Pōwhiri or welcome ceremonies provide a special opportunity for visitors to experience Māori traditions in action.
A pōwhiri normally takes place on a marae, or Māori meeting grounds. The marae sits at the heart of any Māori community.
A pōwhiri usually begins outside the marae with a wero (challenge). A warrior from the tangata whenua (hosts) will challenge the manuhiri (guests), checking to see whether they are friend or foe. He may carry a taiaha (spear-like weapon), and will lay down a token - often a small branch - for the visitors to pick up to show they come in peace.
An older woman from the host side will perform a karanga (call) to the manuhiri. This is the visitors' signal to start moving on to the marae. A woman from among the visitors will respond with her own call. Visitors walk onto the marae as a group, slowly and silently with the women in front of the men. They will pause along the way to remember their ancestors who have passed on.
Once on the marae grounds and either in front of or inside the main ancestral house, the guests and hosts take their seats facing each other. Now speeches are made – usually by the older men of the two groups. A song is sung following each speaker to support his address. After the speeches, the visitors present a koha (gift) to their hosts.
To cap off formal proceedings, visitors and hosts greet each other with a hongi – the ceremonial touching of noses. After the pōwhiri, kai (food) will be shared, in keeping with the Māori tradition of manaakitanga or hospitality.
There are plenty of places where you can take part in a pōwhiri; here are just a few.

WASHINGTON – Guns will be on the table Friday when the Supreme Court meets in private conference to consider potential cases for next fall's docket.
Just figuratively, of course. The petitions scheduled for potential discussion include three that challenge state or federal gun- control laws.
None of those cases directly raises the next big legal issue in the national debate over guns: whether the right to keep a gun at home for self-defense extends to public places. The justices could choose to take on that issue now, but it would be a stretch.
However, a federal appeals court panel's divided ruling last week in a California case makes it more likely that the question of guns outside the home will be heading to the high court soon.
Ever since Justice Antonin Scalia wrote for a divided court in 2008 that the Second Amendment to the Constitution protects the right to possess guns at home, the question of public places has been looming. Many states impose restrictions, such as requiring a demonstrated need to carry a gun, whether concealed or in plain sight. Most lower courts have upheld those restrictions.
To date, the biggest split from that trend involved an Illinois law that was much more restrictive than those in other states. Its ban on carrying concealed weapons in nearly all circumstances was struck down by a 7th U.S. Circuit appeals court panel. Rather than appealing to the Supreme Court, however, the state amended the law to allow for public possession, with restrictions.
The question for the court to answer, eventually, is whether such restrictions are constitutional. The high court has batted down several petitions in recent years from firearms groups rather than answer that question. After the December 2012 school shootings in Newtown, Conn., the issue became more politically charged.
Now, however, calls for tougher gun control laws are waning; President Obama barely mentioned it in his State of the Union Address last month.
"I think the Newtown effect is fading," says Adam Winkler, a UCLA law professor and author of Gunfight: The Battle over the Right to Bear Arms in America.
Friday's decision by a three-judge panel of the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals changes the equation. The majority opinion struck down San Diego County's restrictions as a violation of Second Amendment rights. It may be reviewed by the full appeals court, but if the ruling holds, it would represent a clear split with other appeals court rulings that have upheld restrictions.
"The Second Amendment does require that the states permit some form of carry for self-defense outside the home," the panel said. "States may not destroy the right to bear arms in public under the guise of regulating it." The petitions to be discussed at this Friday's high court conference focus on gun rights for 18- to 20-year-olds and challenges to laws that restrict interstate gun transfers. Although the justices could choose one of those cases to take on the question of public possession, it is unlikely
Soon, however, the court will consider a petition that presents the issue squarely. Opponents of New Jersey's restrictions on carrying guns in public have asked the justices to overrule a 3rd Circuit appeals court ruling in Drake v. Jerejian that upheld the state law. Now that the 9th Circuit has ruled the other way, either case could provide a Supreme Court showdown.
"Drake presents very strong splits on carrying outside the home and the need for evidence in Second Amendment cases," says Alan Gura, the lawyer for those challenging New Jersey's law. After Friday's ruling by the 9th U.S. Circuit against San Diego County's restrictions, he says, "That just became much stronger."

Programming Language Fiction
March 18, 2011 Leave a comment Go to comments
The latest issue of The Monad Reader (an electronic magazine vaguely themed around Haskell) was released this week — but rather than featuring technical articles, it's a special "poetry and fiction" edition. I decided to have a go at contributing, so I wrote a story about programming languages: in particular, what's important in a programming language. It's explored indirectly, via a discussion of one of my other interests: films. If you're interested, take a look. I'm open to feedback on my contribution, and I imagine Brent (the editor) is also interested as to whether the special edition was a worthwhile experiment.

The award-winning Apple Remote Desktop has always had the power to simplify administrative tasks and make managing networked Mac OS X systems easy and efficient. With the release of Apple Remote Desktop 3, there are even more options for distributing software, automating common tasks, and providing remote assistance to your organization.
Remote Spotlight search
Leveraging the revolutionary Spotlight technology in Mac OS X, the new Remote Spotlight capability in Apple Remote Desktop 3 can perform lightning fast searches on remote client systems. Summary results for each client are updated instantly as results are returned. View details on results, or refine searches even further using additional qualifiers. Results can be viewed on remote client systems, copied back to your administrator system, or deleted.
Dashboard widget
Apple Remote Desktop 3 provides you with a new Dashboard widget that gives you an instant, at-a-glance view of the remote computers in your network. It's fully integrated with the Apple Remote Desktop administrative application, so a click on a particular computer will allow you to select and start working with any computer in the system.
Automator actions
You can automate Apple Remote Desktop 3 by using Apple or third-party actions to create your own custom workflows, which you can then save and reuse as needed. To help get you started, more than 40 Automator actions have been included. You can use them individually or combine them to streamline your frequent tasks.
Tired of having to manually track when systems come back online so that you can update their software? Thanks to the AutoInstall feature of Apple Remote Desktop 3 you can stage software to install on remote, mobile, or offline systems. Just stage the software and, when the computer is back on the network, Apple Remote Desktop will automatically update the system.
Curtain Mode
For those times when you want your actions to be hidden from the end user, there's Curtain Mode. This allows you to block the view behind a virtual curtain, while retaining full control of the screen. It's perfect for those working on public-facing systems.
Remote Drag and Drop
Now there's an easy and intuitive way to transfer files and folders between computers. The Remote Drag and Drop capability of Apple Remote Desktop 3 gives you pinpoint accuracy when moving items between your computers and a remote computer. You can also copy and paste information between systems.
Power Copy
The new file copy engine in Apple Remote Desktop 3 supports 64-bit file sizes, network bandwidth limits, and optional encryption of data streams. Power Copy gives you network copy performance up to 11 times faster compared with previous versions of Apple Remote Desktop.
System status indicators
When you want to keep on eye on the computers in your network, there's no easier way than system status indicators. These indicators give you the name of the computer, the name of the current user, and their account picture. Colored indicators show the status of each computer, or you can choose shapes to indicate each state. One click gives you details on startup disk usage, memory utilization, and CPU utilization.
Application Usage reports
It is crucial that you ensure compliance with all your software license agreements. But it's also a task that can take up a lot of your time. Not anymore. The new Application Usage report details which applications have been used on remote systems including the number of launches, the duration of launches, and who executed the launch.
User History reports
Do you know who's been using your network? Apple Remote Desktop does, and can track it for you with new User History reports. These reports give you detailed information on who is using a computer, when they logged in and out, and how they accessed the computer.
Smart Computer Lists
Smart Computer Lists track computers in a way that makes the most sense for you. It lets you specify a set of rules, based on 11 attributes any computer that matches the rules you set automatically gets added to the list. For example, you can create a Smart Computer List to track all your Mac OS X v10.4 computers, or all your Mac mini computers that have 512 MB of memory.
Task Templates
Apple Remote Desktop 3 lets you save frequently used tasks as Task Templates that you can reuse whenever you need them. To help get you started, more than 30 sample UNIX scripts are included to help you with a range of tasks including setting desktop pictures, time zone settings, Energy Saving settings, and more.

One of the projects I worked on for Solaris 11 was to record some information on System Panics in FMA events.Now I want to start making it easier to gather this information and map it to known problems. So starting internally I plan to utilise another feature which we developed as part of the same effort. This is the email notifications framework. Rob Johnston described this feature in his blog here.
So the nice feature I want to utilise it custom message templates. So I thought I'd share how to do this It's pretty simple, but I got burnt by a couple of slight oddities - which we can probably fix.
First off I needed to create a template. There are a number of committed expansion tokens - these will work to expand information from the FMA event in to meaninful info in the email. The ones I care about this time are
%<HOSTNAME> : Hostname of the system which had the event%<UUID> : UUID of the event - so you can mine more information%<URL> : URL of the knowledge doc describing the problem
In addition I want to get some data that is panic specific. As yet these are uncommitted interfaces and shouldn't be relied upon, but for my reference these can be accessed
Panic String of the dump is %<fault-list[0].panicstr>Stack trace to put in to MOS is %<fault-list[0].panicstack>
These are visible in the panic event - so I don't feel bad about revealing the names, but I stress they shouldn't be relied upon.
So create a template which contains the text you want. Make sure it's readable by the noaccess user (ie. not /root)
The one I created for now looks like this
# cat /usr/lib/fm/notify/panic_template
%<HOSTNAME> Panicked
For more information log in to %<HOSTNAME> and run the command
fmdump -Vu %<UUID>
Please look at %<URL> for more information
Crash dump is available on %<HOSTNAME> in %<fault-list[0].dump-dir>
Panic String of the dump is %<fault-list[0].panicstr>
Stack trace to put in to MOS is %<fault-list[0].panicstack>
I then need to add this to the notification for the "problem-diagnosed" event class. This is done with the svccfg command
# svccfg setnotify problem-diagnosed \"mailto:someone@somehost?msg_template=/usr/lib/fm/notify/panic_template\"
(Note the backslashes and quotes - they're important to get the parser to recognise the "=" correctly.)
It would be nice to tie it specifically to a panic event, but that needs a bit of plumbing to make it happen.
You can verify it is configured correctly with the command
# svccfg listnotify problem-diagnosedEvent: problem-diagnosed (source: svc:/system/fm/notify-params:default)Notification Type: smtpActive: truereply-to: root@localhostmsg_template: /usr/lib/fm/notify/panic_templateto: someone@somehost
Now when I get a panic, I get an email with some useful information I can use to start diagnosing the problem.
So what next? I think I'll try to firm up the stability of the useful members of the event, and may be create a new event we can subscribe to for panics only, then make this template an "extended support" option for panic events, and make it easily configurable.
Please do leave comments if you have any opinions on this and where to take it next.

Welcome to Tattoo Laser Dermatology
Twenty years ago Assoc.Prof. Philip Bekhor, director of the Laser Unit at Melbourne's Royal Children's Hospital, was pleased to hear that new laser technology could remove tattoos without scarring. He purchased Victoria's first Q-switched YAG laser in 1993.
Since then, thousands of people have benefited from scar free tattoo removal treatment with the Q-Switched YAG laser. Tattoo Laser Dermatology offers the ConBio™ RevLite® SI Q-Switched Nd:YAG tattoo removal laser as well as the Wavelength Sinon™ Ruby tattoo removal laser.
Now Tattoo Laser Dermatology has added the new PicoSure® laser, now with the Boost™ Upgrade, to the extensive range of lasers available to achieve the best possible outcome. These lasers are also used for removal of cosmetic tattooing (eyebrows, eyeliner, lip liner) and traumatic tattooing following injury (gravel and tar staining).

Student service: Wahoos eyed as rail users
On Saturday, August 20, tens of thousands of UVA students poured into town with their tens of thousands of cars for the start of the fall semester, as usual, clogging Charlottesville's the streets.
But there's hope for next year. It's possible that by August 2006, the Virginia Railway Express will have implemented a weekday rail service that runs from Charlottesville to Washington, D.C., with a stop in Manassas and possible stops in Orange and Culpeper.
Since thousands of UVA students hail from the nation's capital and its surrounding suburbs, former City Councilor Meredith Richards is confident that students will be prime ticket-buyers.
"This service would eliminate the need for parents to make two roundtrip drives down to Charlottesville to pick their kids up for holidays and weekend visits," Richard says. "Kids won't have to worry about bumming a ride from a friend anymore, and the station's an easy walk from UVA."
University student Leah Nylen points out that, in addition to convenience, costs will determine if students will ride the train.
"Expense is always factor," says Nylen. "If it's cheaper than the cost of gas, then I'd consider it."
Richards says she has "absolutely no idea" how much VRE will charge. "It's too early a stage," she says. "This is all still just a concept."
And it will remain one until funding is granted by the General Assembly. The train's advocacy group, Charlottesville Citizens for Better Rail Alternatives, plans to approach the state with its budget request within the next six months.
Yet even if the funds are granted, the trains get rolling, and the tickets are affordable, some students may still be hesitant to jump on board.
"I'm very dependant on my car," says student Jennifer Marshall. "I take it everywhere in Charlottesville. And trains are notorious for not running on schedule."
But Marshall's not a first-year, and first-year students are the ones who aren't allowed to have cars on Grounds.
"This would probably be a real boon for first-years," says UVA spokesperson Carol Wood.
Amtrak currently offers two trains a day from Charlottesville to D.C., but few students take advantage of the service, since reservations are required.
Unlike Amtrak, the new service would require no reservations, a boon for spur-of-the-moment trips that appeal to students.
"It'd be so easy to get up to Washington, just to visit or see a play," notes Wood.
It's exactly along those lines that Richards is thinking.
"Easy transportation is hard to come across," says Richards. "I'm sure there'll be a fair amount of advertising directed at students."
Perhaps such advertising should start early.
"I've never considered taking a train to school before," says student Marshall. "But I wouldn't be surprised if a new system appealed to first-years."
VRE already serves passengers as far as Manassas, but the new rails stretch to Charlottesville and southward.

In Brazil, IBM has opened a new office in the city of Caxias do Sul which follows the recent opening of new branches in the cities of Sao Luis, Joinville and Natal. In Mexico, IBM has opened a new office in the city of Puebla following the opening of a new branch in the city of Toluca in October.
"The Latin American region continues its economic momentum and IBM is putting itself at the center of that growth," said Roberto Alexander, Vice President, General Business, IBM Latin America. "The standout businesses and organizations in these regions are those which understand the role of technology in transforming businesses and driving innovation. By expanding our branch network we are able to work closely with our clients and partners and ensure that they benefit from the most advanced solutions and services available."
In Brazil, where IBM has grown its presence from 11 branches in 2009 to over 30 today, the new Caxias do Sul location will service clients and partners in the city and in the neighboring Serra Gaucha region. Caxais do Sul has experienced strong economic growth in recent years becoming an important exporter of rolling stock, automotive parts and machinery.
In Mexico, IBM is quickly building out its presence in line with the country's rapid economic development. The new Puebla office is IBM's sixth in Mexico after those in Mexico City, Guadalajara, Monterrey, Querétaro and Toluca. Over the past two decades, Mexico has undertaken major reforms to liberalize its economy which has led to the emergence of fast-growing urban centers. As the state capital, Puebla's central location and proximity to Mexico City have enabled it to become an industrial growth center with strong activity in the services and manufacturing sectors.
With over 85 years of operations in Latin America, today IBM has a broad program of investment in place focused on the opening of new branches and facilities, the recruitment of new staff and investment in training, marketing and citizenship programs.
With a long-standing presence in Brazil dating back to 1931 when IBM opened its first office outside of the US in the city of Sao Paulo, IBM today has a working relationship with thousands of customers across the country. Brazil is also home to the IBM Global Delivery Center in Hortolandia and the company's ninth Research lab, opened in 2011 in Sao Paulo.
In Mexico, IBM recently opened a Smarter Data Center in Guadalajara city as part of a $30 million investment to provide cutting edge solutions and services to its customers in the country.

An energy efficient water heater is important because heating water for your home is second only to heating and cooling your home when it comes to your energy dollars.
In the past, electric water heaters have not generally been an energy efficient hot water heating system… nor have they been environmentally friendly. But now there is a brand new integrated air-source heat pump water heater from Rheem, called the HP-50, which offers more than twice the energy efficiency of a standard electric storage water heater. The energy efficient design will help a family reduce its carbon footprint by nearly two tons every year!

Posted: Sunday April 29, 2012 @1:50 p.m. PST
"Never Would Have Made It" is the biggest gospel hit of the past decade, and the man who sings it, Marvin Sapp, is quite possibly the biggest name in gospel today — a development that still surprises the Michigan pastor.
"I'm blown away by how that song has had the impact that it has had on so many people," Sapp tells NPR's Guy Raz. "All of us, I've learned, have gone through 'never would have made it' moments, and that's the reason why I believe that it resonates so strongly in so many people's lives."
Sapp's last record made its debut at No. 2 on the Billboard albums chart, the highest debut for a gospel record in half a century. Since then, he has lived through the tragic loss of his wife, MaLinda, to cancer in 2010. Sapp says he wanted to "sit back and just give up" after her death, but that a comment from his then-11-year-old daughter Madison convinced him to keep going.
"The day after she passed, that morning at 6 a.m. my kids were up getting ready for school," Sapp says. "And I was like, 'You don't have to go to school today — Mommy just went to be home with the Lord yesterday.' And she said, 'No, no, Daddy. We've got to go to school because Mommy would want us to keep it moving.'
"That's what we've been doing ever since, me and my children — we've been keeping it moving," Sapp says. "What I've learned is the best way to honor someone who has passed on is to live."

CROSS-COUNTRY CRUISE SHIP (Feb, 1957)
While the idea of a cross country cruise ship was pretty far fetched, the technology described seems to work. The Rolligon corporation is actually a going concern that makes big vehicles with really big rolligons.
You'll be riding on air — squashy bags of it that roll happily over every obstacle.
By Frank Tinsley
THE crazy, mixed-up amphibious train shown on this page, half bulldozer, half river boat and all Tom Swift, is only an adaptation of a vehicle now being operated experimentally by the Army.
The rolligon wagon rolls slowly but implacably on a number of limp blimps—sausage-like air bags without much air in them. These saggy bladders are a vast improvement over the wheel when it comes to moving things over sand, muck, rocks and rubble. For several years the boating public has been using low-pressure rollers for moving boats on every type of ground.
Rig your rowboat so that it rolls with the air bags instead of over them, put in some kind of power plant and you have a rolligon vehicle. The Army has done this; in fact, it has put a five-ton truck on rolligons and driven it where tractors fear to tread. Not only can you drive it easily over a field of king-size rocks but where other vehicles sink to the hub caps, this one rolls over muddy terrain with ponderous aplomb. The air bags spread the load so evenly you can drive your five-ton job over a bevy of sun-bathers with no more than appreciative grunts from the victims: servicemen and women who have tried it say it's like a nice, beefy massage.
The rolligon was made available to modern surface transport by an ex-mission school teacher named William H. Albee who learned about it from the Eskimos. Albee's stone-age students up on the Bering Strait use inflated sealskins to overland their big umiaks— medium-sized barges covered with skins and often loaded with five tons or more of walrus meat.
In the accompanying illustrations MI has tried to visualize a modern use of Albee's concept for you. Basically, the machine is an amphibious, off-the-road weight carrier, with a shallow, bargelike chassis and a central, underslung power compartment.
In this MI design, an electric drive has been selected, with motors mounted inside the rolligon hubs. Current is produced by a diesel generator unit in the watertight power compartment.
This is MI's concept of a rolligon cruise ship. Whatever form the rolligon eventually takes, there can be little doubt that Bill Albee's squashy, Eskimo air-bags have provided mankind with a radically new form of transportation.

Like homeowners everywhere, people who own homes in Florida want to keep their homes protected against accidents and storms. Unlike other states, however, Floridians face a host of issues that can make finding reasonable homeowners insurance rates in Florida at places like this a difficult feat.
Perhaps one of the most well-known threats to Florida's coastline is the hurricane. These swirling storms are on the radar of every homeowner in Florida from June 1 to November 30. While seasoned Floridians typically don't rush to the grocery to stock up on canned goods on June 1, the wise homeowner checks the battery supply, dusts off the hurricane shutters and grabs a couple extra cases of water on the next grocery run. Weather predictions can seem more art than science, making skeptics of newly arrived Florida residents who rush to buy hurricane supplies after the first hurricane warning they don't use. It only takes living through one actual hurricane to reaffirm a homeowner's belief in the power of the storm, and regardless of the scoffing and naysayers, the hurricane preparation kit is always stocked and ready.
The land version of the hurricane, Florida can experience the twisting destruction of the wind cutting through the landscape. More common than most people realize, the Sunshine State is affected by tornadoes on a regular basis according to https://floridainsurancequotes.net/home-insurance/florida-homeowners-insurance-comparison/. Yet another reason for high homeowners insurance rates in Florida.
Hail and Lightning
It can be disconcerting to be sitting outside on a hazy day and suddenly be pelted with rain that hurts. The umbrella is useless as a defense mechanism, and the car is getting dinged with these little hard pieces of hail. Hail is a common weather problem and can cause damage to homes in Florida – breaking windows and causing damage to the exterior of a home. Lightning is another weather related issue that Floridians face bringing electrical wiring problems, damage from fallen tree limbs and other serious problems for a homeowner.
Another threat to Florida homeowners is the sinkhole. Accounts of the ground literally sinking before a horrified homeowner's eyes are rare, but are frequent enough to cause concern.
For many, the possible threats living in Florida are easily outnumbered by the benefits of living in a vacation paradise. It requires paying attention to not only the weather but the current events of the area, and it also requires a diligent search of homeowners insurance rates in Florida at https://floridainsurancequotes.net/florida-homeowners-insurance/ to find the best rates for your home. Taking the first plan that comes along is not always the best method for finding the homeowners insurance you need. Speaking with a qualified insurance agent can ensure that you get the specific coverage that you need, based on where your home is located. This prevents you from getting over charged for coverage that you don't need, as well as ensuring that you have the coverage that you do need. The weather in Florida is constantly changing – make sure your homeowners insurance is ready for the changes too.

FL Child Car Seat Laws
Child Car Seat Requirements
Florida law requires children under 5 years of age to be properly restrained no matter where they are seated in the vehicle.
Children through age 3 must be secured in a separate carrier (child safety seat) or in a vehicle manufacturer's integrated child safety seat.
For children ages 4 - 5, a separate carrier, an integrated child safety seat, or a safety belt may be used. If a safety belt does not fit the child correctly, a booster set should be used to correctly position the lap and shoulder belts once they outgrow forward facing child safety seats (generally at about 40 pounds and 4 years old).
Children from approximately 40-80 pounds and under 4'9" in height should ride in a booster seat.
Infants must ride rear-facing until they are at least one year old and weigh 20 pounds or more. Rear-facing, the infant should be semi-upright at an angle or no more than 45 degrees. A forward-facing older child should ride sitting upright.
Never place a child in a child safety seat in the front seat of a vehicle equipped with a passenger air bag. Always use the back seat.
Violation of the child restraint law carries a fine of $60 and 3 points on the driving record.

WEATHER: Fantastic.
MILES: Zero. POW!
MILES THIS WEEK: Many. Already.
WHERE TO: Nowhere.
MOOD: Exhausted.
I was at this party a few weekends ago at which a friend asked me if I listened to music while I run.
Now, let me digress for a second. Because I feel like every single runner I meet is either a Luddite purist or incapable of going on even a simple two-mile jog without having Tool drilling into his/her skull at volume level 14. No one is in-between. Which I don't get. Because sometimes you need Enrique to move you along, and sometimes you just need to silently judge other runners in silence, you know?
"Not all the time," I responded.
"Well, don't you go CRAZY? What do you think about?" she asked.
Ironically, her question itself has made me go crazy, because now when I'm running all I can think about is, "Huh. What AM I thinking about?" and now my flow is totally gone. (Thanks a lot, party-friend-lady. Jerkface.) It's like when you for whatever reason start thinking about breathing and suddenly realize that you can't do it correctly anymore, and now maybe it won't be voluntary anymore and you'll have to think about breathing until the day you die. Holy s**t, that would suck, wouldn't it?

New Tesla Roadster To Be Called "Model R"
New Tesla Roadster To Be Called "Model R"
Wonder how soon they'll need another assembly line.
Wonder what the features are
Made of tinanium.
0-60 in 1.9 sec.
Range 5K.
cost $60K.
Or so the rumor I just started says.
typo: titanium
Or was that unobtitanium? I forget.
Unobtainium is for motor windings and electrical connections/cabling.
Then when 80+kW-h supercap packs become affordable, we can have ~100% regen.
Unob-titanium soon to be ob-titaniable? http://www.gizmag.com/fraunhofer-titanium-hydroforming/24608/
Trouble is, looks to be worth doing only for exhaust pipes, which BEVs don't have!
It's expensive, cramped and takes forever to "refuel," but there's no denying the 2011 Tesla Roadster's performance credentials or its ability to stand out in a gasoline-powered crowd.
Looks like it based on the link. Flagged as inappropriate.
That article misses a key point: Tesla would only be "spreading itself too thin" if it allows an increasing number of models to exponentially increase its supply chain complexity. And it certainly doesn't have to make that mistake.
For example, I believe that Tesla should design each chassis from now on (medium for the S and X, small for the Gen-3 car, etc.) to be able to use dual motors. If they do that, then creating a Model R is easy as pie:
1. Use the small chassis.
2. Drop in two of the motors from the Performance Model S.
3. Create a drop-dead-gorgeous body shape.
4. Put in the same iconic Tesla interior.
Other than the design of the two-seat supercar body to sit on top of that chassis, there's a lot of Tesla standard parts in there. And with not a whole lot of cost or complexity for Tesla, you have a very serious supercar: over 800 hp, almost 900 lb-ft of torque, all-wheel-drive, probably 150+ miles of EPA-rated range, and a very high-margin and high-visibility product for Tesla.
That thing would turn heads everywhere.

SydneyRail is an application that shows the CityRail train time table and map. This app does not require an internet connection so things can load fast and you can use it where reception is poor.We made this application purely for the CityRail next train screen we see at CityRail stations (See Trains on the Main Menu). Its purpose has now changed to providing the next trains to a station information as quick as we can. A widget is coming.This is a beta version, released for comments and testing. So time table data may not be 100% correct.Please report all bugs to us, send an email too (it helps speed things along, Android bug tracking isn't particularly helpful all the time)This is merely the start of this program (well in a usable form at least)Lots more additions/enhancements will be added laterIf you leave negative feedback, its always appreciated to leave helpful negative feedback, either give us an email or write it in the comment, what is wrong with the app. Please don't just say "I don't like it".Features:- Main screen showing a customisable list of next trains.- Train screen showing train stops and following trains.- Map of City Rail network.- Offline stored view of the City Rail time table.- Track work information (Requires online connectivity).- Service status (Requires online connectivity).- Widgets showing next train information.

Well, this stunt certainly didn't fly.
A producer for the Disney film "Paperman" was briefly kicked out of the Oscars Sunday night for throwing paper planes from her mezzanine seat into the orchestra section below after the film won for Best Animated Short, E! News confirms.
Oscars' best and worst moments: Argo, Life of Pi, Michelle Obama, Jennifer Lawrence, Seth MacFarlane's "boobs"
U.S. & World
The day's top national and international news.
Producer Kristina Reed was seemingly attempting to recreate a scene in the romantic black-and-white short, about a smitten man trying to woo a woman in the building across the street using paper planes.
But the plan apparently backfired, and instead of sailing to the stage, the paper planes plummeted into the audience below. About 20 minutes later, security arrived and asked Reed to leave the theater.
Per The Hollywood Reporter, the producer was eventually allowed back inside 10 minutes later following a brief protest.
Looks like Reed learned that hard way that there are no friendly skies in Oscarland!

There's nothing quite so demoralizing as seeing Craig Counsell (Craig Counsell!!!) hit a home run. Or seeing perpetual washout and strikeout master Russ Branyan knock one into orbit. Or to watch Ryan Braun knock the Jays pitchers around the park like they are tossing BP. (And speaking of BP...doesn't it look like the Jays could use a little extra, what with their measly four singles?)

We're doing our best to look on the bright side, and to not become another of the nattering nabobs of negativity burying this team. But after another washout like last night, we're wondering if this team is ever going to get it going.
