2012 NFL Draft: Whom should Browns choose between Trent Richardson, Justin Blackmon?
ESPN NFL Draft analyst Todd McShay said this afternoon during a conference call that he believes it will be tough for the Browns to pass on Texas A&M quarterback Ryan Tannehill with the fourth overall pick because Tannehill has the potential to become a franchise quarterback. McShay also said he thinks there's not a big drop-off from Baylor quarterback Robert Griffin III to Tannehill.

Upon reading responses to my previous post, I decided to put some of the community's suggestions to the test and examine some of the other options out there. Of the suggestions given, I primarily focused my attention on Debian (Lenny), Damn Small Linux and the wattOS beta. All the distros had relative advantages and disadvantages, and this provided me with an opportunity to look at some distros I otherwise might not have.
The first distro I took a serious look at was Debian (Lenny). It seemed like the "safest" route, which should theoretically allow me to build what I need from the ground up. I didn't bother with a Live CD, I just pulled down an installer .iso and went from there. The installer was pretty straightforward, and I only encountered one major issue. Actually, this issue was more "show-stopper" than "major." Due to the nature of what I'm doing, I need to have wireless network access on these laptops (Gateway model 450ROG), which happen to use Intel Centrino(TM) mobile technology (specifically, the Intel Pro Wireless 2100 card). So I hit the network portion of the install, and the installer comes back with, "you need a non-Free driver. If you have this particular Intel driver on removable media, insert it now."
I locate a USB drive and the drivers, and download and extract them as per the instructions, then insert the USB drive into the laptop, tell it to continue, and… nothing. I don't know if the computer isn't seeing the drive or if it isn't seeing the driver or if it's just having a hissy fit because the driver wasn't personally sanctified by Richard M. Stallman. What I do know is that the installer crapped out on me. Fine. I'll just exercise my Google-fu and see what I can find out. And lo, I discover that Debian had removed that removed that driver from the standard package in a previous bug fix (what the bug actually was, I couldn't figure out, beyond, "I don't think we need this any more." Gee, thanks.)
So I'm faced with a couple of choices: I can continue to fight with this (meaning I'd probably have to compile a new kernel with the Intel driver and then build from there), or I can move on to another distro and see if I can accomplish the same basic thing with less work. As luck would have it, I had another damn small distro ready to test.
First and foremost, Damn Small Linux is fast. It is exactly what it claims to be: thin, lightweight and efficient. The interface is intuitive enough for what I need, and it makes the laptop absolutely sing. It's not as pretty as the Gnome or LXDE environments (it uses JWM), but it certainly does what I need it to. My hopes for DSL were quite high indeed.
Then Intel once again reared its ugly head. I was less surprised at DSL's lack of compatibility than I was with Debian's, but it was annoying nevertheless. What was surprising to me was that the only workaround they had available for this card was ndiswrapper, and it would require a bit of legwork on my end to get it to work. I was hoping for a simple fix, but alas, it was not to be. And this was particularly annoying because DSL was so ideal in so many other ways.
So now I was faced with the question: dare I trust the project to a distro that's still in beta?
Right off the bat, wattOS had one major advantage over the other 2 distros I'd tried: it recognized the wireless card with no problems. Actually, it behaved very much like many of the other Ubuntu distros and derivatives I'd tried. The install process was easy, familiar and painless. And I must admit, there's something comforting about the familiar, even when you're trying something new.
For those not familar with wattOS, the best way for me to describe it is as a "thin", laptop-optimized version of Ubuntu which (contrary to what Distrowatch reports) uses LXDE as its default desktop environment (Distrowatch says it defaults to Openbox). By default, it includes Firefox, AbiWord, Gimp, Pidgin and a handful of others. Noticeably missing are OpenOffice.org and Thunderbird.
WattOS is still in beta, and it shows. The login screen offers the opportunity to select a session (by hitting F1), including LXDE, XFCE, openbox, ion3, icewm, wmaker and blackbox. (I do find it curious that fluxbox didn't make the cut, since it's one of the thinnest of the thin). Unfortunately, of the listed WMs, LXDE is the only one that actually got installed. Attempts to switch WMs failed, because the distro didn't actually include them. Installing the environments remedied this problem, but in my mind, that's a fundamental shortcoming, and one I hope is resolved when they come out of beta. It's also still fairly thin on management tools. While Synaptic Package Manager was included, the Gnome Update Manager was not. That, however, was nothing apt-get couldn't solve for me, and amazingly, it works just fine in LXDE.
So where do we stand?
As things stand right now, I'm still not sold on any one distro/desktop combination. Damn Small Linux (with JWM) is the runaway performance winner, but the lack of support for my wireless card makes it problematic. Debian looks like it will be a fair amount of headache for a small gain: there are other thin distros out there that offer what Debian does, including APT, so my incentive to go that route is greatly diminished.
I love Mint's management tools. In many ways, I consider it an improved Ubuntu. But I also really like what wattOS is doing. They're clearly not there yet, but they've shown me enough that I definitely want to spend more time with it, seeing if I can turn the beta version into what I need. For the time being, I'm going to experiment with some of the less-common environments on wattOS and see how well that works.

Beginning Crochet: Part 3There are four basic stitches in crochet. You can create an entire item from single crochet, the easiest of all crochet stitches, but it won't look very interesting! All the instructional videos are from crochet expert Teresa of Art of Crochet.
Double Crochet (dc)- Yarn over and stick your hook through the fourth chain stitch. YO and pull through. YO again and pull through the first two loops on your needle. YO again and pull through the last two loops. If you double crochet every stitch, it will be a very tight weave; double crochet every other stitch for a looser weave. Here's a video to demonstrate double crochet. Triple Crochet (tc)- Now we are just showing off. For this crochet, yarn over TWICE and then stick your hook into the fifth stitch. YO and pull through. YO again and draw it through the first two loops on the hook. Repeat this process two more times until all the loops are off the chain! Again, use tc every other stitch for a loser stitch. Another video might help you out!

"Do not buy this brand"
This Lennox ac unit came with the house we bought new 3 years ago. After 1 year it started to make loud noises like metal grinding against metal. Nobody could find the problem and I was told this was just the normal. After 2 years, I had to pay $265.21 to replace the condenser fan motor. Now, a little more than 3 years, the circuit breaker keeps tripping as soon as I turn the ac on. I was told that the compressor is out and needs to be replaced and Chas Roberts, the contractor is asking $1,500 to do it. What a lousy deal is this? What else is going to go wrong with this product? I am afraid to spend this much money to have this break again. We live in Arizona and the summer here is unforgiving, we have an elderly person living with us and we have to find a place to relocate her because we are afraid she would have a heat stoke. I strongly warn you not to buy this brand. The positive reviews for this brand probably came from employees or paid writers.

Our Lennox unit has been perfect and worth every penny. With a small baby in a 2 story home her bedroom would never cool down. Since install she sleeps so much better. Unit is super quiet, and after 2 months of summer barely even notice it on our electrical bill. People gave me a hard time for choosing Lennox, I wouldn't think twice about it. Friends have a KeepRite and are seeing 50-100 electrical bill increases.

"The very best unit I ever had"
I have a hs 8-211-11ffa unit. It is at least 20 years old and has never failed until this year, My HVAC person says he can fix this unit and is going to attempt to repair it and that repair is only a leak that developed from years of service. I put this unit in my home used in 1991 as I was working at a Lennox dealer and it was a unit I took out of a home that the furnace had gone bad but the a/c was still good. so I brought it home and installed it in my home and its has served us well. If My HVAC man doesn't manage to fix this old unit I plan to purchase another Lennox, I'm sold on these units.

"Problems with Lennox"
Purchased Lennox ac and furnace nearly 2 years ago to replace over 25-year-old units that were in the house we bought 8 years ago. We have already had more trouble with the new Lennox than we did during the 8 years living with the old. Had to replace circuit board 2 weeks ago with a cost near $300 to replace even though under warranty. Now another problem as sprung up with a blower motor, also under warranty, but will cost nearly $500 to replace for labor involved. Wish we hadn't bought the Lennox products.

"Becoming concerned"
I have called back the dealer twice and complained the unit does not dispel enough moisture from the air (of course they came out and said it was fine) My other air conditioner I had prior to this (carrier 23 yrs) would pump water into pit constantly with the lennox I hardly hear a trickle. It may sound odd but I never serviced the other (carrier) once.

I had the high efficiency XC21's installed to combat the high summer electric bills, and I'm glad I did. My neighbors have bills 2-3 times mine with their so-called "high efficiency" Amana units, plus mine are quiet and their units sound like freight trains! I've never had any issues with them at all, while my neighbors complain about bad units and battles with Amana to get them fixed under warranty.

Installed after hurricane Katrina, compressor and capacitor have already gone out. Warranty will cover compressor part only, costs for labor and refrigerant (r22) is additional. Will never buy another Lennox!

European Commission
Maria Damanaki
European Commissioner for Maritime Affairs and Fisheries
Europe in the Global Maritime Economy
Euromaritime Fair/Paris
7 February 2013
Dear Minister Cuvillier , dear President Vallat, dear participants,
Ladies and Gentlemen,
I'd like to thank you for inviting me to visit Euromaritime, the first event dedicated to the European Maritime Economy since the adoption last September of the Commission's Blue Growth Communication.
Unfortunately, I couldn't be with you Tuesday on the opening of Euromaritime as I had to attend the debate on the Reform of the Common Fisheries Policy in the European Parliament in Strasbourg. I'd like to apologize for this delay but also to thank you Minister Cuvillier for the kind words towards the European Commission in your opening speech two days ago. We really have to work together.
After having visited the fair, I am convinced that I was right to grant my Patronage to Euromaritime on behalf of the European Commission. By doing so I wanted to underline the need for a permanent dialogue between the European Decision makers and the private sector whose active involvement is indispensable for a successful implementation of our Blue Growth agenda.
Here in France the maritime sectors gather more than 300 000 direct jobs and generate €52 billion of gross value added. In the EU, maritime sectors employ well over 5 million people and account for a gross value added of €500 billion.
But there are more opportunities for sustainable growth in all marine and maritime sectors, be they big or small, traditional or growing sectors: this is the key message of Blue Growth.
This is the agenda for growth and jobs in maritime sector, which I proposed and Member States adopted last October, in Limassol.
To favour Blue Growth, we decided to focus on those sectors that have the greatest potential for growth and spill-over effects: ocean energy, aquaculture, marine mineral resources, blue biotechnology and maritime, coastal and cruise tourism.
As stated in the Blue Growth Communication, this list should not be considered exhaustive. Ongoing Member States or private initiatives are already encouraging innovation in other sectors such as maritime transport or shipbuilding. For example, here in France, the French Council for maritime Research and Innovation – CORICAN is supporting innovation in the shipbuilding industry.
Let me update you briefly on what we're doing for each of these five areas.
1.energy. The offshore wind sector is already on the verge of industrialisation, and now it is time to invest on wave and tidal energy generation. We have to act now if we are to maintain our leading role and ensure a cleaner and greener future for ourselves and our children. We are working on an impact assessment on marine renewable energy resources
2.seabed mining for non-energy raw materials. If seabed mining becomes legally, technologically and economically feasible, I believe we should ask ourselves how involved Europe should be.
3.tourism. The Commission will adopt this year a Communication on maritime, coastal and cruise tourism. This sector is the single largest maritime activity in Europe. We need a European approach to help Member States compete with other world resorts; to promote skills development and diversification; to improve infrastructure and connectivity.
4.blue biotechnology. Europe has the know-how to develop new products from the sea: anti-cancer drugs and other pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, elements for food, feed and chemical industry, even biofuels. We are just beginning to appreciate the myriad of opportunities and solutions offered by marine nature.
5.aquaculture. Given the relative stagnation of this sector compared to other parts of the world, we, with our new guidelines are going to cut red tape and provide EU operators with a level-playing field where they can build upon their undeniable strengths.
If we can be successful on this, then we are talking of over one and a half million more jobs and over a hundred billion more euros per year by the end of this decade.
And if we want that our industry and services remain world leaders in the marine and maritime sectors and compete successfully on a global scale, what we have to do is clear. We have to do our best, so the operators and entrepreneurs have the appropriate economic environment, the appropriate legal framework and the best possible aid to innovation.
Our aim is reducing the investment risk to authorities, maritime industries and SMEs alike, lowering costs and opening new markets.
This is what we will be doing in the coming months through other specific initiatives:
creating , by 2020, a new seamless multi-resolution digital seabed map of European waters,
working with our member States to implement Maritime Spatial Planning that will provide certainty for investors and reduce administrative and licensing burden for economic activities at sea,
strengthening the integration of our Maritime Surveillance in order to know more about maritime activities and better protect our citizens.
In order to do that, we need the active involvement of the European maritime sectors.
This is where maritime clusters and smart specialisation strategies come into play.
They can maximise competitive and comparative advantages.
They help unite and connect systems that are otherwise fragmented and that otherwise disperse resources.
I strongly believe that maritime clusters at European level, including the European Network of Maritime Clusters, can renew the industrial fabric of coastal regions.
Being in France I'd like to mention the dynamism of the French Maritime Cluster which gathers 300 companies and succeeded in breaking barriers and creating synergies for the development of our maritime economy.
For Europe to maintain the current industrial lead, we need to set the framework for innovation to flourish, providing the tools and instruments for moving from theory to practice and accelerating commercialisation of research results.
Ladies and gentlemen,
We can strengthen Europe's economy and we can help pull it out of the recession: through the Blue Economy.
I wish you every success. Thank you.

According to New York Times bestselling author Lysa TerKeurst, craving isn't a bad thing, but we must realize God created us to crave so we'd ultimately desire more of Him in our lives.

In this six-session video-based study, women will be encouraged by Bible teaching from Lysa, uplifted by testimonies from women like Christian music chart-topper Mandisa, and empowered with healthy living tips from Dr. Ski Chilton, an expert in nutrition.
This curriculum will help women who found their "want to" by participating in the Made to Crave study master the "how to" of living a healthy physical life as well as cultivate a rich and full relationship with God.

text: Another era of hum-drum regular season showings follow by swift playoff exits is over as the Atlanta Hawks prepare once again for a long road of rebuilding ahead. Gone is Joe Johnson, the player who has been credited for Atlanta's return to respectability, yet at the same time, given the brunt of the blame for the Hawks' current stagnation. His six year 120$ million contract extension may have kept Atlanta in the playoffs, but the lack of cap flexibility caused by such a big deal would have handicapped the team for years to come. It was obvious from reviewing their last two seasons that the Hawks had soared as high as they were ever going to go and they were heading for a devastating crash landing. Something had to be done to curb the rising upcoming tidal wave that would sweep the Atlanta Hawks away—fortunately for the Hawks they know have the fiscal flexibility to weather the storm.

Boxer's fracture is a common name for a fracture of the long bone that connects the little finger to the wrist. This type of fracture may create several fragments. This is called a comminuted fracture. It may also be displaced. This means that the two ends of the bone are separated. In addition, the fracture may be:
- Closed—skin is not broken
- Open—skin is broken (often because it strikes a sharp object)
Risk Factors
These factors increase your chance of developing boxer's fracture. Tell your doctor if you have any of these risk factors:
- Participating in contact sports (eg, boxing, martial arts)
- Advanced age
- Postmenopausal
- Osteoporosis
- Are exposed to violence
If you have any of these symptoms, do not assume it is due to boxer's fracture. These symptoms may be caused by other conditions. Tell your doctor if you have any of these symptoms in your little finger:
- Swelling
- Pain
- Deformity
- Lack of movement
- Depressed knuckle (a permanent bump may occur even after treatment)
Your doctor will ask about your symptoms and medical history. A physical exam will also be done. The injured finger will be examined. Tests may include:
- Range-of-motion tests
- X-ray —a test that uses radiation to take a picture of structures inside the body, especially bones
Treatment is usually effective. You may have stiffness and a permanent bump on the hand. Talk with your doctor about the best treatment for you. Options include:
Home Care
- Rest—A cast will likely be applied to give your finger time to heal. You will need to limit use of your hand.
- Ice—Apply ice or a cold pack to the finger for 15-20 minutes, four times a day. Do this for several days after the injury. Wrap the ice in a towel. Do not apply it directly to your skin. This will relieve swelling. If you have a cast, check with the doctor to see if he wants you to apply ice.
- Elevation—To relieve swelling and pain, prop your hand on a pillow when you are sitting or lying down.
Surgery or Procedures
If the bones are not aligned correctly, they may have to be moved for proper healing. Once the bones are in place, you will have to wear a splint or cast for about six weeks.
Your doctor may recommend:
- Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) (eg, ibuprofen )
- Pain reliever (eg, acetaminophen )
- Antibiotics to prevent infection (if you had an open fracture)
Your doctor may recommend range-of-motion and strengthening exercises once the fracture has healed. You may be referred to a physical therapist.
To help reduce your chances of getting boxer's fracture, take the following steps:
- Avoid situations where fights may occur.
- Exercise regularly to build strong bones and muscles.

Dionte Christmas has made at least 1 three-pointer in seven consecutive Euroleague games. He is 19 for 31 (61.3%) from downtown during that stretch and leads the league at 57.6%.

Built so that families can remain together when it is most crucial, David's House provides support and a home-away-from-home for families with children recieving medical care at the Children's Hospital at Dartmouth, in Lebanon, NH.
Because their home was only twenty minutes away, it was easy for David's parents to visit him during his frequent hospitalizations. But they met many parents who slept in their cars or on the hospital floor, unable to afford any length of stay in a hotel and unwilling to leave their child's side. When David's doctor told the Cyrs that David had just months to live, Dick, David's father, asked the doctor, "Why isn't there a place for families like ours to stay?" There had been talk of such a place, the doctor told them, but nothing had ever come of it.
Dick replied, "We're going to build a place, and we're going to call it David's House."

Dave Bing was once the kind of guy who might sing a little Motown in the shower, or even club-hop with actual Motown artists.
What different times those were for the mayor of Detroit.
Bing was born and raised in Washington but long ago built a life in the city symbolic of the country's rise and crash. He was drafted by the Detroit Pistons in 1966 and played with the team for nine seasons. After his basketball career ended, he returned to the city to launch an automotive supplier, Bing Group. He spent 29 years building the business, he said, and by 2008 he thought maybe it was time to retire.
Bing had once supported former Mayor Kwame Kilpatrick, but not after Kilpatrick tumbled deep into scandal that led to his resignation and a jail sentence. A small group of friends convinced Bing to run, he said, and he won the chance to finish Kilpatrick's term in 2009. Later that year, he secured a full term.
Sports, Bing said, taught him how to work on a team, to understand skills and weaknesses. Business showed him how to find and grow talent, how to recognize his own skills and weaknesses. None of it could have prepared him to run Michigan's largest city. Bing hasn't announced yet whether he'll run for re-election next year.
"It was in much worse condition than I ever anticipated," Bing said of Detroit. "We're working through the process as I speak, but it's probably the second most difficult job in this country behind the president."
Indeed, he's facing the threat of bankruptcy, stalemates with city council and hard, sometimes raucous talks with Detroit residents and city workers. This summer hecklers riled about city pay cuts shouted him down during a community meeting.
One day later, Bing was calm, too busy to think long about chants and criticism. There's no time for it, he said. No time anymore to sing, no time for late nights on the town. There's hardly time to sleep, he said. But it doesn't change his belief in the city that fills his memory and dominates his thoughts.
So, CNN asked Bing: In a city notorious for its troubles, what would you want visitors or residents to see?

The Digital Skeptic: Facebook-Killing Dark Social Rules The Web
NEW YORK (TheStreet) -- Simon Moss has discovered that Web media giants such as Facebook (FB) , Twitter and LinkedIn (LNKD) face a shadowy competitor.
"Dark social is what is driving my business now," Moss told me over the phone. The recently transplanted Australian is deep in the business of staying in touch with what works with the Web in these grim digital days.
He's raised $2.2 million on the most interesting media start-up idea I've seen in months. Called ImageBrief, this eight-person New York-based digital photography market matches the unpublished images of top-flight professional photographers with first-rate media companies and advertisers such as Saatchi & Saatchi, TWB and many others.
"The world's best shooters have terabytes of photos that never get used," he says. His service lets art directors and page designers specify exactly what they are looking for in a photo. Then it pushes those "image briefs" up to its network of photographers, who then match the spec to their extant images. And price their photos accordingly.
"We offer an upgrade of the cliched stock shot," Moss said. "But not the luxury of the full commission brief. The client gets a $25,000 shot for $8,000 and the shooter gets 8K he would not have otherwise made."
The critical value-add for Moss -- he gets a 30% cut on each photo sold through his service -- is that ImageBrief is not Flickr, Picasa, Dropbox or any sort of open content sharing platform. Rather, it's a carefully curated niche offering, and only vetted professional photographers and art directors can participate.
When I asked him what his No. 1 marketing weapon is for connecting with roughly 5,600 photographers and 700 clients, Moss had a fascinating answer: It isn't Web marketing or social media or any sort of hip, big data analysis. Rather ...
"It's dark social," he said. That is, the human interactions that happen in the digiosphere -- usually via Web chatter such as email, SMS or voice calls -- but not via big social networks.
"You know they are there because the phone rings," Moss said. "But you can't measure it, so it stays dark."
Casting a giant dark social shadow
Remarkably, even a cursory glance around the Web reveals that large swaths of the Internet are out of reach of supposedly omnipotent giants such as Google (GOOG) , Facebook and LinkedIn.

This diverse route offers a variety of options from one-day tours to multi-day trips, with the opportunity to experience the landmarks of the Ruhr region at close quarters: blast furnaces, gasometers, collieries and winding towers. Today, these decommissioned sites are remarkable industrial monuments where people can enjoy art and culture and a variety of leisure pursuits. The gasometer in Oberhausen exemplifies this transformation. Standing at an impressive 117 metres, it been converted into Europe's tallest exhibition hall. This blend of spectacular industrial architecture put to creative reuse and captivating landscapes makes a cycling tour through the Ruhr region a truly exceptional experience. Terrain: network of cycle paths consisting of two main routes – the Emscher Park Cycle Route and the Ruhr Region Circular Route. Paths run mainly along disused railway lines, riverbanks, forest paths and roads with little traffic. The main routes are connected by north-south links. Mostly level profile; around half of the paths are surfaced with asphalt and half with crushed brick/stone. Scenery: the Industrial Heritage Cycle Route explores the industrial monuments of the Ruhr region as well as its scenic highlights such as Emscher Landscape Park, forests, rivers and canals.

What about social media services? Like www.thesocialmediadot.com ? Or does anyone have any other recommendations to help with exposure? | |||
Newbie |
For what it's worth, you can check out www.talentboostpr.com ... same type of deal but a heck of a lot cheaper than the link you posted. | |||
Newbie |
Do you guys offer one that actually works? I have tried one of these for Likes, they are not real and do not stick. My friend used TalentBoostPR.com for IMDb, and IMDb froze her StarMeter ranking and flagged her account. My advise is to not use these sites! | |||
Russell Crowe |
I don't see how IMDB is even relevant now that you can sign up and pay to add all your own credits (something I refuse to do). | |||
Harrison Ford |
None of these sites are worth a damn and only fools would consider using them. But here's the bigger issue. Let's say one of these crooks deliver and your IMDB rating goes through the roof. So what? Do you think CAA will notice and want to sign you? What's the point of all this nonsense? There's something called common sense in this world and it saddens me that so many actors are lacking any. | |||

You can also get Reddit users to do it fo free! | |||

Haha like that Alexander Rhodes, who really got NOTHING but a silly Cracked.com video from it. | |||
Morgan Freeman |
Thank you. I used to think I can become an actor the easy way, by falling for scams which prommised me a big break, I was wrong about that and about you LaActor | |||
Nicholas Cage |
This is tangential, but my kid recently confided in me that when the acting bug bit her at the age of 10, she thought that it would only take a few months to become a major star on the Disney Channel. Ha. After six years, countless hours of acting, singing, and dancing lessons, countless auditions, thousands of miles in the car, thousands of dollars spent, lots of books on the business of acting, lots of reading on this message board and others, a manager come and gone, getting an agent a year ago and still having to hustle, and now planning our move to L.A., she's amused at herself as she looks back on on that misconception. This is a long road. | |||
Morgan Freeman |
she's fortunate to have you by her side along the way LaActor | |||

With your very bad reputation around town I doubt very seriously anyone will cast you in anything. | |||

Among the 84 House freshmen who unpacked new offices last week, a handful is intimately familiar with doing the opposite -- packing up and moving out of the Capitol.
Nine members of the new class are former members of Congress who left Capitol Hill either by choice or by force. Redrawn congressional districts helped some of them get back; others had a change of heart after leaving voluntarily.
Of the seven returning Democrats, almost all lost in 2010 when Republicans swept into control of the House.
Though each used the two-year hiatus differently, many say the same thing about returning: The election losses were somewhat beyond the lawmakers' control, and they plan on being the same people they were when they last served in Congress.
Rep. Dina Titus, a Nevada Democrat who lost in 2010, remained engaged after her loss by teaching political science at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas, and serving on the U.S. Civil Rights Commission. She said her close loss was "not a surprise" to her and should be chalked up to a bad year for Democrats.
"My positions, my values, my stance on things are no different now than they were then," Titus said. "I won't change my principles in anyway. I would still vote for the health care bill, the American Recovery Act."
Titus' vote for President Barack Obama's signature first-term legislation became a big part of the 2010 campaign and helped her opponent, Joe Heck, define the freshman congresswoman. Heck, who represents Nevada's 3rd District, is now one of Titus' colleagues.
This story is familiar for Rep. Alan Grayson, a Florida Democrat who is back after being ousted in 2010. Grayson said he thinks that there was "nothing that we could have done that would make a difference in the result" and that his loss in 2010 was somewhat out of his control.
Grayson might be the best-known member of the class because of his rant on the House floor during the health care debate when he said that the Republicans' plan for health care was for Americans not to get sick and to "die quickly" if they did.
Grayson's outspokenness earned him the ire of conservatives and the affection of Democrats. And the fact that he represented a reliably Republican district doomed his re-election bid.

FVWM-Crystal aims to create an easy to use, pretty, but also powerful desktop environment for Linux or other Unix-like operating systems. It uses the following programs: FVWM as a window manager and "main core"; different ways to provide icons on the desktop including support for many file managers and custom commands; xterm, aterm, mrxvt, or urxvt as terminal emulators; MPD or XMMS2 as music players (there's built-in support for controlling these programs), and several other tools for different functions, like setting a wallpaper or taking screenshots.
Sawfish (the window manager formerly known as Sawmill) is an extensible window manager using a Lisp-based extension language. All window decorations are configurable and all user-interface policy is controlled through the language. Its aim is to manage windows in the most flexible and attractive manner possible. As such it does not implement desktop backgrounds, application docks, or other things that may be achieved through separate applications. Sawfish is mostly GNOME-compliant; almost all configuration may be made through a graphical interface.
spectrwm is a minimalistic tiling window manager that tries to stay out of the way so that valuable screen real estate can be used for much more important stuff. It has sane defaults and does not require one to learn a language to do any configuration. It was written by hackers for hackers and it strives to be small, compact, and fast.
FluxBat is an ACPI based battery monitor for the fluxbox window manager. It includes two parts: a daemon process that runs the update script and the update script itself. The whole software contains only about 100 lines of code and is easy to use by including only one line in the menu configuration file of fluxbox.
i3 is a dynamic tiling window manager. Its key features are correct implementation of Xinerama (workspaces are assigned to virtual screens, and it does the right thing when attaching new monitors) and XrandR support (which is still unfinished). Both horizontal and vertical columns can be used in tiling. There is a special focus is on writing clean, readable, and well documented code. i3 uses xcb for asynchronous communication with X11, and has several measures to be very fast. i3 is primarily targeted at advanced users and developers.
dvtm brings the concept of tiling window management, popularized by X11-window managers like dwm, to the console. As a console window manager, it tries to make it easy to work with multiple console based programs like vim, mutt, cmus, or irssi. dvtm is intended to be used where X11 isn't available or over SSH. In conjunction with dtach, it can be seen as a lightweight alternative to GNU screen.
Toorox is a Linux live DVD based on Gentoo which starts as bootable media using KNOPPIX technology. It is designed for ease of use, with a simple control center and a hard disk installer. It contains many applications and uses KDE, GNOME, or XFCE as a working environment. A live USB pen drive image maker is also present on the desktop. It is multi-lingual and contains the unstable branch of Gentoo (x86 and amd64).

Maryland Utilities Companies Must Provide Smart Meter Options
The Maryland Public Service Commission ruled Monday that customers will have additional options, which may include opting out of smart meters.
Maryland utilities customers will have more options when it comes to smart meter installation at their homes and businesses. The Maryland Public Service Commission ruled Monday that public interest requires that Baltimore Gas & Electric, Potomac Electric Power Company and Southern Maryland Electric Cooperative provide customers with an additional option related to smart meters, according to a ruling on the commission's website. Customers have complained about the health consequences that they believe will occur as a result of radio frequency emissions from the smart meters. The commission found no "convincing evidence" to support that claim, but acknowledged a "good-faith belief" to the contrary from customers. As such, the commission …

Rep. Jesse Jackson Jr. reported AWOL after release from Mayo Clinic
Rumored plea deal includes resignation and jail time; wife also under Fed investigation.
ABOVE PHOTO: Jesse Jackson Jr.
(AP photo)
The Jesse Jackson Jr. story continues to have more twists and turns than a mountain road.
The latest chapter is that he has been released from the Mayo Clinic, but is now AWOL according to a published report.
Could it be because he may have to go to jail for possible misuse of campaign funds? This includes charges that the congressman used the alleged ill gotten gains to redecorate his Washington, D. C. home, and possibly buy a $40,000 Rolex for a female friend.
Jackson Jr.'s wife, Chicago's 7th Ward Alderman Sandi Jackson, is also under federal investigation for criminal charges that she assisted her husband in using campaign funds to redecorate their Washington D.C. home, according to a report from the Wall Street Journal.
In any event, here's what the Atlantic Wire is reporting:
We thought that there was a possibility he was going to show up in Washington since the House of Representatives was set to convene yesterday evening. Well, he wasn't there either.
"The congressman's Washington-based spokesman Frank Watkins said Jackson had not checked into his Washington office," reports Sarah Burnett of the AP, who added, "And two of Jackson's Illinois colleagues in the Black Congressional Caucus — Reps. Danny Davis and Bobby Rush — said through spokeswomen that they had not heard from him."
And it gets even more puzzling as his father, Jesse Jackson, has told some media outlets that he's still actually at The Mayo Clinic reports Burnett. That means that someone's lying. Jackson's disappearance coincides with an ongoing federal probe into allegations of misusing campaign funds to decorate his house, an alleged plea deal for said campaign funds, and just yesterday the Huffington Post reported that the campaign finances probe was expanded to include his wife Sandi.
The embattled politician is represented by a former US attorney who is negotiating with the federal government.
The plea deal would end Jackson's 17-year career as a congressman representing Chicago's South Side and suburbs.
At the center of negotiations is white-collar criminal defense attorney Dan Webb, who served as Chicago's top federal prosecutor in the 1980s, when several Cook County judges were indicted for public corruption under the "Operation Greylord" investigation.
Webb, the chairman of Winston & Strawn LLP in Chicago, has been the point person for Jackson in talks with the U.S. Justice Department in Washington.
The tentative deal includes:
- Jackson resigning for health reasons.
- His pleading guilty to charges involving misuse of campaign funds.
- Some jail time
- The congressman's repayment of any contributions that were converted to personal use, such as home furnishings, improper travel or gifts
Rep. Jackson left the Mayo Clinic Tuesday after his second treatment for bipolar disorder there since he took a leave of absence in June.
Mayo spokesman Nick Hanson said he did not know where Jackson was going after he left the Minnesota hospital.
Jackson returned to the hospital in October amid reports that he faced a new federal investigation into potential misuse of his campaign finances.
He remains under a U.S. House committee's investigation into his dealings with imprisoned former Illinois Gov. Rod Blagojevich.
Nonetheless, Jackson was elected Nov. 6 to a ninth full term representing his Chicago area district, despite his not campaigning and barely appearing in public since taking medical leave in June.
Jackson was treated at the Mayo Clinic last summer for bipolar disorder and gastrointestinal issues. After he returned to the hospital, his father, the Rev. Jesse Jackson, said his son had not yet "regained his balance."
On Tuesday, Illinois Gov. Pat Quinn became the latest elected official to urge Jackson to talk to the public about his condition. Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel called on Jackson on Monday to "have a conversation with his constituents about his intentions" now that the election is over.
Associated press and Atlantic Wire contributed to this story.
