The burglars caused extensive damage in several rooms, according to Detective Lt. Richard Cantu.
"They took laptops from classrooms and chips and drinks from machines," the detective said.
Police believe the burglars broke out a classroom window to gain access to the building. Then they went on an apparent rampage, breaking out narrow windows in classroom doors and reaching inside to unlock the rooms.
Computers and printers were knocked to the floor, pens and papers were scattered and other items were strewn over the floors of the targeted rooms.
Cantu said surveillance photos showed that all four intruders wore masks, hoodies and gloves to hide their identities.
The vandals struck 13 classrooms, knocking over computer equipment and desks as they searched for valuable items.
They also broke into four offices, including the main office complex, and then broke into a closet and even the school cafeteria.
Cantu said investigators do not suspect students were involved and it appears the classrooms were picked at random. All the classroom damage was limited to the 300 and 400 wings of the building.
The detective said it is believed that the burglars entered the building sometime between 2 and 3:30 a.m.
Police brought in bloodhound tracking dogs and handlers from the Texas Department of Criminal Justice to assist in the investigation.
One of the dogs was able to track the path that the burglars had taken as they approached and left the school.
Anyone who might have information as to the identities of the burglars may qualify for a cash reward of up to $1,000 if that information leads to an arrest.
To receive a reward, witnesses should contact the Coastal Bend Crime Stoppers organization at 362-0206 or call toll-free to (877) 362-0206.
Computer users may contact the Crime Stoppers organization at coastalbendcrimestoppers.com.
No witness will have to be identified to collect a reward.

[Solved] CSS Sprites even when file is much larger?
Hey guys,
is there an obvious advantage in using CSS sprites when the combined images are a lot larger than the single image files?
I heard that the aim is to reduce HTTP requests, but is this reason enough to compromise the image loading time?
I'm looking forward hearing your take on this one!
Cheers, Jakob
How many images are we talking?
About 10-15 images
The sprite will be cached and no more http requests. 99% of the time sprites are going to ultimately be faster overall
It definitely depends on how big the image is. If it's turning itself into a 1mb sprite then you've gone too far, imo.
Yeah, as @TheDoc said - if it's a massive image file you need to look at what you're doing to see if there's an alternative.

Google Translate vs. Bing Translator
In last week's post, I concluded that Yahoo Babelfish was clearly inferior to Google Translate and Bing Translator. This week is the tiebreaker! I've subjected the two remaining online translators to different tests, ranging from easy to hard.
Test 1: German Proverb
Source: Besser ein Spatz in der Hand, als eine Taube auf dem Dach.
Translation: A sparrow in the hand is better than a pigeon on the roof.
Google Translate: Better a bird in the hand is worth two in the bush.
Interestingly, Google Translate did not go for the literal translation, but instead went for the English equivalent, "A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush."
Bing Translate: Better a Spatz in der hand as a dove on the roof.
I think Google Translate wins this one.
Test 2: Victor Hugo, Villemain (1845)
Source: Vous avez des ennemis? Mais c'est l'histoire de tout homme qui a fait une action grande ou crée une idée neuve. C'est la nuée qui bruit autour de tout ce qui brille. Il faut que la renommé ait des ennemis comme il faut que la lumière ait des moucherons. Ne vous en inquiétez pas, dédaignez! Ayez la sérénité dans votre esprit comme vous avez la limpidité dans votre vie.
Translation: You have enemies? Why, it is the story of every man who has done a great deed or created a new idea. It is the cloud which thunders around everything that shines. Fame must have enemies, as light must have gnats. Do no bother yourself about it; disdain. Keep your mind serene as you keep your life clear.
Google Translate: You have enemies? But is the story of every man who has made a great action or creates a new idea. It's the noise around cloud all that glitters. It must have renamed the enemies as you ought to have the light of gnats. Do not worry, scorn! Be calm in your mind as you clarity in your life.
Bing Translate: You have enemies? But it is the story of a man who has done a great action or creates a new idea. This is the cloud that noise around everything that glitters. Must be that the renamed have enemies as it must be that light midges.Do you to worry not, dédaignez! Have the serenity in your mind as you have clarity in your life.
Google Translate is better. Bing has a bad habit of not translating a few words.
Test 3: Sun Tzu, The Art of War
- Sun Tzu said: The art of war is of vital importance to the State.
- It is a matter of life and death, a road either to safety or to ruin. Hence it is a subject of inquiry which can on no account be neglected.
- The art of war, then, is governed by five constant factors, to be taken into account in one's deliberations, when seeking to determine the conditions obtaining in the field.
- These are:
- The Moral Law;
- Heaven;
- Earth;
- The Commander;
- Method and discipline.
Google Translate: Sun Tzu said: soldiers who affairs of state of life and death, the survival of the Road,must be aware also.
It follows that the order to five things, to take account of the school, and claim their feelings: one said channel, second is days, the third is, the Si Yue will, Wu Yue law.
Bing Translate: Sun Zi said: soldiers of the nation events, land of the dead, survival of the road, must be noted. Five things to take account of the school, emotionally cable by: Yue road, said the second day, the three ends, the four ends, five said method.
Both translations are equally bad. I heard somewhere that machine translations are best for these languages: English, Spanish, German, and French. This probably results from the similarity in these languages and the large amount of source texts available.
Google Translate leads in the field of machine translation! Bing Translator sometimes refuses to translate certain words, which is quite annoying (see test 1). As usual, short sentences work better. One last note: The Art of War is not modern Chinese, just as Shakespeare isn't modern English. If I had replaced it with more modern text, the results might have been better.

Seasonal employment opportunities: Local company attempts to help the unemployed have a happy holiday
By Bill Conrad, email@example.com
Texas� unemployment rate is more than 1 percent lower than the national average, but more than 800,000 Texans are currently out of work.
With the holidays approaching, the urgency to find a job picks up. This has led one local company to hold a Pay it Forward job fair, where unemployed Texans are hired by companies from Dec. 10-16.
�What this is about is trying to get 1,000 unemployed people in DFW work for just one week,� said Daniel Boehm, owner of two Express Employment Professionals franchises in Plano. �This is not about the job itself; it is about getting people a job so they can have a paycheck for Christmas.�
�Our clients are able to fulfill a need and relieve some of the pressure on their staff since there have been a lot of layoffs and a lot of people take vacation at the end of the year,� he said. �The jobs have to be something that doesn�t require much training, so we have a lot of warehouse and administrative jobs that are being filled.�
Boehm said for each person that receives a job in Collin County, his company will donate $10 to CASA of Collin County in support of their efforts to help abused and neglected children in the foster care system.
Unemployed workers have another option as UPS has announced its plans to hire 2,100 workers in DFW in order to help prepare for the increase in packages it sees around Christmas.
�Our seasonal employees are an integral part of UPS�s holiday shipping plan,� said Georgina Bane, UPS�s human resources operations manager, in a release. �We�re looking for hard-working and enthusiastic people who can help make this holiday season a success. We are specifically looking for employees in the Plano, Frisco, Richardson, Allen and McKinney areas; however, positions are available across the Metroplex.�
For information on the Pay it Forward job fair, visit expresspros.com or call 972-423-1112. To apply for a job at UPS, visit upsjobs.com.

Jozell Payne was found dead in his home at 3408 Callier Springs Road on Oct. 18.
His daughter and her boyfriend are accused of killing the elderly man and then fleeing to Michigan in his vehicle.
According to the indictments, Payne was smothered to death by a gasoline-soaked rag on Sept. 17, about a month before police found his body.
Payne's hands were bound, and his house was locked, according to the indictment.
His daughter, Laura Ann Payne, 33, of 304 Chambers St., and her boyfriend Edward Eugene Gaines, 36, of 1 E. Ninth St., were indicted on two counts of murder, two counts of aggravated assault, robbery, false imprisonment, three counts of theft by taking, identity fraud and transaction card fraud.
Gaines also was indicted on a charge of possession of a firearm by a convicted felon.
After robbing Jozell Payne, the couple took his credit cards, bank card, money, wallet, a .38 caliber revolver and a .45 caliber revolver, and fled in Jozell Payne's 2004 Chevrolet Avalanche, according to police.
The suspects were captured on Nov. 12 in Dearborn, Mich., and extradited back to Floyd County to face charges.
Gaines is a registered sex offender. He was convicted of sexual battery in 1996, according to the Georgia Sex Offender Registry.
The suspects remain in the Floyd County Jail.

MASON, W.Va. — Visiting Belpre broke away from 35-all tie through three quarters of play with an 18-11 charge down the stretch to secure a 53-46 decision over the Wahama boys basketball team Friday night during a Tri-Valley Conference Hocking Division matchup in Mason County.
The White Falcons (2-6, 1-4 TVC Hocking) kept pace with the Golden Eagles (4-6, 4-2) through three quarters of play, as the hosts trailed 10-9 after eight minutes of play before rallying in the second canto with a 15-13 run to claim a 24-23 edge at the intermission.
Belpre — which outscored WHS 30-22 after the break — used a small 12-11 third quarter spurt to knot the game up at 35, then closed regulation with its seven-point swing to wrap up the three-possession outcome.
Trenton Gibbs led the hosts with 14 points, followed by Wyatt Zuspan with 11 points and Hunter Bradley with eight markers. Austin Jordan chipped in six points, while Jacob Ortiz added four markers. Derek Hysell had two points in the losing effort, while Dakota Sisk rounded out the scoring with one point.
Nick Therriault paced Belpre with a game-high 17 points, followed by Bryce Pittenger with 14 points and Dakota Hoffman with 13 markers.

Navigating the Crises
In this video, Brian McLaren discusses the idea of surrogate arguments, in which a debate over one thing is really a means for arguing something completely different. According to McClaren, the argument over the age of the earth is one such argument.

Series: Ephesians 4:1-6: A Call of Christian Unity
This series discusses the importance of unity among Christ's believers. Ross Hastings, an expert in the areas of both chemistry and pastoral theology, is eager to see the church seek out unity rather than divisions in this science/faith interface. Unpacking Ephesians 4:1-6, he explains that unity in Christ through the Holy Spirit is the primary concern of both Jesus as seen in John 17 and Paul in Ephesians 4, making this matter pressing. He urges all believers to be in agreement that God indeed created, yet to be in dialogue over how that creative process occurred.
A Plea to My Shepherds
... I would exhort these, my fellow conservative evangelical shepherds and thinkers, to set aside all reticence and fear, emerge from anonymity, and storm the forum of discourse, engaging this most pressing matter with vigor, equanimity, and humility. In doing so, know upfront that there will be few handrails to guide; you will not be building upon an extensive precedence of published conservative thought.
Evangelicalism and Adaptation
I look my students dead straight in the eye and tell them that no matter what, debate within the intellectual sphere cannot and should not take away or diminish the importance of the personal nature of their faith. The intellect, to use a scientific phrase, while necessary for the faith, is not sufficient
Gracious Dialogue
Our desire to engage in gracious dialogue with fellow believers who reject biological evolution has been receiving increased attention in both the Christian and secular press. More importantly, we are being joined in this reconciling project by our brothers and sisters in Christ who have often been defined primarily as our "opponents".
How Do We Know the Earth is Old? (Infographic)
The BioLogos Forum is pleased to present this infographic about the tools scientists use to determine the age of the Earth. The graphic, titled "How Do We Know the Earth is Old?", uses data compiled and summarized by geology professor Dr. Gregg Davidson.
Series: Thinking Aloud Together
This series by Scot McKnight relates a lecture given at the 2012 BioLogos workshop for Evangelical theologians, scientists, authors and pastors. He explains that evolution is taught in public schools, and therefore must be addressed by Evangelical pastors in the churches as well. This will educate a whole generation of upcoming scientists on the issues of science and faith. Overall, he encourages scientists and pastors to collaborate on the issue as they rethink the long held interpretations of Genesis 1-3.
Why should Christians consider evolutionary creation?
Because evolution is a challenging subject, many Christians are tempted to simply ignore or reject it. Yet considering evolutionary creation has important benefits for Christians both in our relationship with the Creator, and with our relationships with other people—believers and non-Christians alike. First, Christians should study evolution because (like all the natural sciences) it is the study of God's creation. Creation itself is a complementary revelation to what is communicated in the Scriptures, and through it God shows how and when he brought about life, to his honor and glory. Studying the creation is also an invitation into a deeper understanding of the attributes and character of Father, Son and Spirit. Second, considering evolutionary creation aids the Church in its gospel mission, supporting young Christians in their faith, helping answer critics, and equipping us to engage effectively in the wider culture. An anti-evolution attitude can harm Christian young people by presenting them with a false choice between pursuing science OR holding to faith. Similarly, a hostile attitude towards evolution can hinder evangelism when seekers hear that they must reject science to follow Christ. On the other hand, studying evolution as a God-ordained process helps Christians refute arguments that science encourages an atheistic worldview. Furthermore, as the church engages front-page issues raised by the rapid growth in science, medicine, and technology, a Christ-centered voice in such areas as bioethics will be stronger if based on a thorough understanding of the natural sciences, including evolution.

Six Reasons Young Christians Leave Church
A five-year project headed by the Barna Group explores the opportunities and challenges of faith development among teens and young adults within a rapidly shifting culture.
God's Use of Time
I find that when many Christians think about the way God created our universe, they often bring a static expectation similar to what we bring to an ordinary statue. It's as if we assume the physical realm were merely a rigid three-dimensional sculpture, immovable with time.
Series: Francis Collins and Karl Giberson Interview
In this six part series, Karl Giberson discusses evolution with BioLogos founder Francis Collins as it relates to the scientific community and the church. Their conversation addresses Collins' scientific perspectives, his Christian faith, and the abundant evidence for evolution. Throughout, the two critique various unscientific approaches to evolution such as Young Earth Creationism and Intelligent Design. Overall, they both express the deep need for the Church in America to accept evolution as a valuable, true theory as well as to cultivate a richer understanding of the Bible among the people.
When Appearances Are Deceiving
"That just doesn't sound right." Ever since I was a kid, that was my gut reaction to those well-meaning people in my church and school who told me that despite what many in the sciences were saying, the earth and the entire universe were actually of relatively recent manufacture.
The Weapon of Science, the Sword of the Spirit, and a Call to Prayer, Part 2
As a pastor, I find it particularly troubling when Christians use science as a weapon against other brothers and sisters in Faith that believe differently than they do.
Series: The Biblical Premise of Uniformitarianism
In this three part series, geologist Stephen Moshier critiques John MacArthur's articles on uniformitarianism, while offering an alternative perspective on the principle. He exposes faulty conceptions about and misleading definitions of uniformitarianism. Gregory Bennett further defends the idea of an old earth as Biblical and focuses on the unchanging nature of God. He also discusses the Scriptural doctrines of creation and God's providence.
Evidences for Evolution, Part 1: An Ancient Earth
The only conclusions in science which are widely accepted are those which are supported by multiple, reinforcing lines of evidence – "all roads must lead to Rome". If there is even one scientific trajectory that seems to clearly lead off to Peoria instead of Rome, the scientific process demands that the scientist find out why.
Why Must the Church Engage in Scientific Discourse?
In this video conversation, Os Guinness addresses the question of why it is essential for Christians to engage in scientific discourse. Resistance, skepticism, and hostility to science are not biblical precepts, but views that originated from Christian movements that emerged in the 19th century.
It happened again this week. I received an e-mail from a student at a major university who is in the midst of a profound personal crisis.
How are the ages of the Earth and universe calculated?
Many independent measurements have established that the Earth and the universe are billions of years old. Geologists have found annual layers in glaciers that can be counted back 740,000 years. Using the known rate of change in radio-active elements (radiometric dating), some Earth rocks have been shown to be billions of years old, while the oldest solar system rocks are dated at 4.6 billion years. Astronomers use the distance to galaxies and the speed of light to calculate that the light has been traveling for billions of years. The expansion of the universe gives an age for the universe as a whole: 13.7 billion years old.
(Updated April 16, 2012)
Framing the Conversation
When Christians discuss creation, evolution, and design, it is easy to focus immediately on areas of controversy and disagreement. We think it is important to start by pointing out certain areas on which nearly all Christians agree.
Willing to be Wrong
The debate is often not about evidence, but about making sure that others do not transgress our interpretive boundaries and insist that we're wrong. We've bitten from the tree of knowledge and we love its taste.

How health-care reform will save business money
Guest Opinion February 24, 2012
The small-business health-care tax credit helps small businesses and small tax-exempt organizations afford the cost of covering their employees. It's specifically targeted for those businesses with low- and moderate-income workers. Four million small businesses nationwide are eligible for these tax credits, which are meant to encourage small employers to offer health insurance coverage for the first time or maintain the coverage they already have.
A business that employs up to 25 people, pays average annual wages below $50,000, and provides health insurance may qualify for the tax credit of up to 35 percent (up to 25 percent for nonprofits) to offset the cost of insurance. The credit goes up to 50 percent for small business employers (35 percent for non-profits) beginning in 2014.
Beginning in 2014, individuals, families and businesses with fewer than 100 employees can

SOURCE CSX Corporation
JACKSONVILLE, Fla., Feb. 28, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- CSX Corporation (NYSE: CSX) today announced that the company won a U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) 2013 Climate Leadership Award in the Goal Achievement category. The award recognizes CSX's 8 percent voluntary reduction of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions intensity since 2007.
"Reducing CSX's emissions intensity by enhancing fuel efficiency is important to CSX's mission and benefits our customers, employees, neighboring communities and investors," said Michael J. Ward, chairman, president and CEO. "CSX remains committed to driving further improvements for our environment, while at the same time moving the goods our country needs."
CSX was the first transportation company to become a Climate Leaders Program Partner in March 2007 and reached its voluntary 8 percent greenhouse gas emissions intensity goal in 2010, one year ahead of schedule. By meeting this goal, CSX reduced greenhouse gas emissions by 1.5 million metric tons – the equivalent of taking 296,000 cars off the road for one year, or consuming more than 3.5 million fewer barrels of oil. In 2012, the company announced a goal to further reduce GHG emissions intensity, committing to an additional 6 to 8 percent decrease by 2020.
Investment in employee training and new technology is the key driver of the company's continued emissions intensity improvement. CSX has invested more than $1.75 billion over the past decade in an array of training and fuel-saving locomotive technologies, which include:
"I commend CSX for its exemplary commitment and dedication to tackling the challenge of climate change," said Gina McCarthy, assistant administrator for EPA's Office of Air and Radiation. "CSX and all our Climate Leadership Award winners are reducing harmful carbon pollution, increasing efficiency and cutting waste at the same time."
The EPA co-sponsors the Climate Leadership Awards with The Climate Registry, the Center for Climate and Energy Solutions, and the Association of Climate Change Officers. The Climate Leadership Awards build on the voluntary work that organizations pursue in reducing greenhouse gas emissions and publicly recognizes those efforts.

The company's transportation network spans approximately 21,000 miles, with service to 23 eastern states, the District of Columbia and two Canadian provinces.
