Experts to Discuss Climate Change @ the next CU Salon
Posted April 20, 2008
A trio of noted scientists will discuss climate change on Thursday, April 17, from 6 – 8 pm in The Center for British and Irish Studies (Norlin Library's 5th Floor West).
This is the third in an ongoing series of discussions moderated by Richard Brenne, author of the forthcoming book The Truth About Everything.
The next panel on May 15 will address how climate and energy issues affect social justice.
Dr. Patricia Romero Lankao has two Ph.Ds, one from Germany and the other from her native Mexico. She is a distinguished social scientist at NCAR who has made important contributions to the latest IPCC Report, sharing the Nobel Peace Prize with the likes of our other two panelists and Al Gore.
Dr. Brian Toon is the Chair of the CU Atmospheric and Oceanic Sciences Department and has studied the effects of volcanic eruptions, pollutants and nuclear weapons detonations on climate, also drawing parallels between the climate of earth and that of neighboring planets.
Dr. Kevin Trenberth is head of the Climate Analysis Section at NCAR, and was a lead author on the last three IPCC Reports, giving the last report as testimony to Congress.
In addition to many other experts in the audience joining the discussion, the strongest statements made by atmospheric scientists and others will be projected on a screen, discussed and amended to determine how best to help the public and policy makers understand the magnitude of the climate change problem.
The panel will also discuss what positive feedbacks can accelerate climate change and what manifestations of climate change concern them most, including sea level rise, increased severity of droughts, heat waves, hurricanes and other storms as well as the effect on agriculture and thus human population. Pollution, global dimming and the possibilities of geo-engineering will also be discussed.
The effects of population and consumption on climate and how climate change affects social justice will be explored, as well as solutions in energy and lifestyle changes.
These events are sponsored by the University Libraries, and are free and open to the public.
Refreshments are provided with generous support from the Boulder Junior Chamber InternationalandCU Boulder Friends of the Libraries. All events are "Zero Waste" thanks to the support of CU Recycling.
Are We Getting the News? A Discussion on the State of News Media
Posted April 10, 2008
Do you get your news from Jon Stewart and Stephen Colbert? If so, you're not alone, last year, a Pew Center research study found that as many young people got their news from Comedy Central as they do from the "real" news networks, and further study revealed that those audiences were more informed! Another survey recently found that 69% of journalists said that their profession was "headed in the wrong direction."
So are we getting the news? Are we learning what we need to participate in civic life? Do journalists do original research any more or is there too much emphasis on "official sources"? What role does the media play in public life in America today? And what does determine news content—corporate consolidation, the pr industry, government agencies, journalists, or the audience? Do bloggers or "citizen journalists" help or make the problem worse?
If YOU are concerned or confused, attend our next panel discussion on Wednesday, April 9 from 7 – 9pm in Norlin Library's fifth floor Center for British and Irish Studies. This event is FREE and open to the public, and is co-sponsored by the Boulder Junior Chamber International.

University Libraries Second Annual Book and Media History Talk >>
"Navigating Information Connections: Hypertext as Agent of Change".
Thursday, December 3rd, 7pm, Norlin Commons E113.
Electronic literature is "digital born," i.e., a first-generation digital work created on a computer and generally intended to be read on a computer. Is it a fad or evolution? Just as social media is heralded as a social revolution, digitally originated literature likely represents a new constant, if not a point of no return. What challenges does it pose from critical, library, and archival perspectives? How will it shift our assumptions about media and the book?
Join a literary critic, an editor of the Electronic Literature Directory, and a rare book cataloger as they dissect and reformulate notions about the collaborative potential of this "textual renaissance."
Sponsored by the University Libraries, Special Collectons, Friends of the Libraries, and the Boulder Public Library.

Hazel Barnes and the Existential Challenge in the 21st Century
An Exhibit and an Event in Celebration of the University of Colorado Boulder Libraries Archives Hazel E. Barnes Collection
The University Libraries Archives in Norlin recently received a donation of manuscripts, correspondence and photographs of former CU Professor HazelBarnes. Prof. Barnes taught at the University for 35 years, forging interdisciplinary connections between philosophy, Greek literature and other areas of humanities. She was the first woman named Distinguished Professor at CU in 1979. Following her retirement in 1986, the University established its most prestigious faculty award in her honor - the Hazel Barnes Prize - in 1991.
Current Exhibit (through summer 2014)
In order to promote the Hazel Barnes Collection as well as new research and creative possibilities, an exhibit of her work is now featured on the second floor of Norlin Library, generously supported by the Friends of the Libraries.An array ofposters contextualizing her work in relation to Sartre, Camus and De Beauvoir lines the south wall of Research Services. The southeast staircase landing by the entrance to the Research floor provides a biographical timeline and excerpts from her work. A display case features original manuscripts, first editions of her books, and artifacts from her time in Greece.

Hazel Barnes and the Impact of Existentialism on American Culture
Norlin Library, 5th foor, 7pm, reception preceding
With support from the CU Graduate Committee on the Arts and Humanities, an evening panel discussion about the influence of Professor Barnes' work and existentialism on media, liberal education and the study of modern culture since the 1960s is scheduled on Thursday October 18.
Featured Speakers:
Dr. George Cotkin, Professor of Intellectual History at Cal Poly, author of Existential America
Jeff Larsen, History Ph.D. candidate, Intellectual History, CU Boulder
Dr. Betty Cannon, author of Sartre and Psychoanalysis
Hazel E. Barnes was awarded a doctorate in classics from Yale in 1941. She began her career at the University of North Carolina in classics, added philosophy to her title at Queens College in Charlotte, NC and University of Toledo. In 1951, she presented a paper at Earlham College titled "Existentialism: Positive Characteristics" that provided the entrée to an expansive chapter in her intellectual life. The paper led to an appointment in the philosophy department at Ohio State University that dissolved when a new chair took over the department. She returned to classics in 1953 with a post at the University of Colorado, but never relinquished her interest in philosophy. In 1956 she translated French existential philosopher Jean-Paul Sartre's Being and Nothingness, which cascaded into a number of important works that deserve continued recognition.

|Worked OK for me Installing to a Windows 7 (32 bit) PC - so I ignored the product CD and downloaded the beta Win 7 drivers. Good quality but... For a cheap desk top/piano top mic stand, this is great. The quality of construction is very sturdy and solid.

A Production Workhorse
Every studio or production facility needs a reliable, clean-sounding 4 track reel-to-reel multitrack deck. Whether its for mastering audio recordings, recording radio broadcasts, radio spots, laying down video soundtracks, or multi-image production and presentations. The requirements are almost always the same: a serviceable, hard-working deck that will stand up to the daily grind, delivering faithful reproductions every time. The TASCAM 34B is a high-performance machine, combining a rugged precision transport and exceptional audio electronics with a complement of performance features which meet and exceed the demands of the modern studio environment.
Intuitive Operation Speeds Recording & Editing Sessions
A straightforward, no-nonsense design makes setting up the TASCAM 34B simple: spool up a reel, calibrate the VU levels for up to four tracks with your source, and roll tape. Input and output dials for each track allow you to perform critical gain-staging functions with ease. Bright, color-coded LEDs report record-ready status for each track, and whether theyre set up to accept MIC or LINE level input. Input and Output select switches for INPUT, SYNC and REPRO, also augmented by LED status indicators, make monitoring, alignment and mixdown simple and quick. And the 34B features a complete headphone center/mono monitoring capability with a front-panel headphone jack and 4-button track selector, you can comfortably monitor whatever combination of tracks you need, without affecting the output calibration.

With re-promulgation of the much-awaited Sebi ordinance, the market regulator can now enhance its own penalty against defaulters within three months while it can avail services of police and central government officers for search and seizure operations.
These powers are in addition to those granted to Sebi through earlier two ordinances, the last of which lapsed in January.
The new ordinance has come into effect from March 28 and has restored many other powers to more effectively crackdown on ponzi schemes and other manipulative activities.

The ordinance vests with the Securities and Exchange Board of India (Sebi) various powers, including carrying out search and seizure operations, and calling for information from bank, corporation, board or any other authority. It also allows the regulator to seek telephone call data records.
Sebi would have powers to increase the penalty on an erring entity within three months of passing an order provided the concerned person is given an opportunity to be heard in the matter.
In case, the board considers that the order passed by the adjudicating officer "is erroneous to the extent that it is not in the interests of the securities market, it may, after making or causing to be made such inquiry as it deems necessary, pass an order enhancing the quantum of penalty, if circumstances of the case so justify".
Such an action could be initiated only within three months from the date of passing an order by the adjudicating officer or dismissal of the appeal, whichever is earlier, as per the ordinance, re-promulgated for the third time by President Pranab Mukherjee on March 28.
The market watchdog can also seek the help of police or any central government officer to assist in cases.
"The authorised officer may requisition the services of any police officer or any officer of the central government, or of both, to assist him for all or any of the purposes... it shall be the duty of every such officer to comply with such requisition," according to the 'The Securities Laws (Amendment) Ordinance, 2014'.
It has been re-promulgated for the third time as the Parliament could not pass the Securities Laws (Amendment) Bill 2013

Jeff Pexton-MHTS/PGI Photo
The 2013 My Hometown Sports High School Football Training Camp Tour rolled into Rome this morning for a visit with head coach Ted Swavely and his RFA Black Knights.
While they may call this a training "camp", there sure as heck weren't any smores, no boondoggles in sight and if you think the Black Knights fight song is "This Land is Your Land", then you're in for a rude awakening.
"We are really excited about this team, we've got a group of 20 very hungry seniors who want to win and we are all in this together" fourth year head coach Ted Swavely told MHTS.
One of those seniors is quarterback Angus Evans, an imposing 6'5″, 235 lb. kid with a cannon for an arm and a very experienced eye for the field.
Evans believes that the chemistry of this year's Black Knights is what they will rely on as the season unfolds.
"We have such a large group of seniors here that are so hungry to win and that have worked so hard together that I think we can have a good season and get this program headed back in the right direction" Evans, also a team co-captain, said.
Evans will look to get the ball into the hands of another senior wide receiver Josh Reed, who is one of the fastest athletes in all of Section III, having been clocked below 4.6 seconds in the 40 yard dash. Reed is one of twelve Black Knights who run the 40 in under 5 seconds, including four linemen!
Reed, who is also a co-captain as he enters his third year on the Varsity squad, believes strongly in this year's team.
"We are a family here, players, coaches, all of us, nobody likes losing, we hate it and I think we've put in the work in the off season to have a better outcome this fall. The playoffs and a Section III title is what we want at this point" Reed explained.
According to Coach Swavely, between 80 and 90 players from the modified level through varsity attended the optional weight lifting sessions held four days per week during the off season.
"I am very proud to say that these kids are taking ownership of this team this year, they have certainly put in the time, now its time to translate to game time" Swavely said.
The Black Knights offensive and defensive lines will be anchored by 6'2″, 265 lb. Rob Alder and 6′ 210 lb. Zach Thomason. Both are three year veterans and both are ready for a winning season.
"We are working really hard out here this season and I am seeing a much higher lever of unity than I've seen in past seasons" said Thomason, who went on to say "We're not going to get down, we're going to pick each other up when things get tough and hopefully that will make us a better team and result in wins".
Rob Alder also likes what he's seeing with the 2013 Knights, but thinks that the team will need to study up and know the offensive and defensive schemes in order to be successful, explaining "There is a lot to learn in terms of assignments and responsibilities and the younger guys are going to have to get them down before we play for real, but I think we will be fine, everybody wants the same thing, to win".
The Black Knights are also expecting big things from Eddie "Da-Da" Campos, a slippery tail back on offense and a hard hitting safety on the "D".
Teams in the Section III, Class "AA" Division One will also see big doses of Julius Berry and Brad Dougherty carrying the ball out of the Black Knights backfield this season.
The Knights open the 2013 campaign on the road at Class "A" Whitesboro on September 6th and will begin league play on September 20th at home against Proctor, in a game that can be heard live on 99.1 FM – ESPN Radio Utica Rome.
In speaking to the four RFA captains: Evans, Reed, Alder and Thomason, one thing was quite evident, all of these kids are gentlemen and are extremely focused.
All four have plans of attending college next fall, and each has set his goals to a lofty level.
The lack of numbers in the win column in the past couple of seasons has done nothing but made these young men more determined to succeed.
Don't be surprised if they do just that.

Inspired by a block of Greek marble pulled from the Tiber River near his Italian summer home, American Maurice Sterne allowed the marble's size and shape to determine the pose and gestures of Sitting Figure. Poised on a small square base, the nude is completely contained within the invisible block: with head bowed, she draws one knee up, folding the other leg beneath her. She holds her arms close to her torso, resting hands on shoulder and knee. Sterne carved each line and contour to return the viewer's eye to the figure's center. She gazes inward, in deep meditation, an image of calm and repose.
Sterne sought, in both painting and sculpture, to combine the lessons of tradition with the contemporary artistic environment that surrounded him. With his choice of subject and material, and by refining and reducing the image to its most concentrated, expressive form, Sterne refers to archaic Greek sculpture. But rather than polish the stone to imitate skin or use a drill to fashion locks of hair (as tradition may have dictated), Sterne preferred the texture of the natural marble. He used few finishing tools and, with the exception of the roughly finished base, achieved a consistent texture for the figure.
Sterne began his career as a draftsman and painter. From the beginning, critics recognized his deft use of line to describe the weight and volume of objects in his two-dimensional work. "[Sterne's] pictures convey something of the mass and weight which sculpture conveys," wrote one scholar. In Greece in 1908, he studied archaic Greek statues and was inspired to carve his first sculpture in stone. Several years later, he traveled to Bali to paint and sketch; it is thought he based Sitting Figure on a sketch he made of a Balinese woman from that time.

Eczema Health Center
How Is Eczema Diagnosed and Treated?
In this article
To diagnose eczema, your doctor will first talk to you about your symptoms and medical history.
He or she will also ask about your family's history of rashes and other allergy-related medical conditions, such as asthma and hay fever.
Understanding Eczema
Find out more about ezcema:
While there is no single test to diagnose eczema, a good medical history and an exam of your skin are usually all that is needed.
What Are the Treatments for Eczema?
Good skin care is a key component in controlling eczema. For some people with mild eczema, modifying their skin care routine and making a few lifestyle changes may be all that is needed to treat eczema. Other people with more severe eczema may need to take medications to control their symptoms.
Non-drug treatments for eczema include:
- Mild soap and moisturizer. It's best to use a mild soap or soap substitute that won't dry your skin. Gentle soaps, known as syndets, are available at the drugstore (brand names can be recommended by your doctor or pharmacist). A good moisturizer (in cream, lotion, or ointment form) helps conserve the skin's natural moisture and should be applied immediately after a shower or bath, as well as one other time each day. Some people with severe eczema may benefit from taking baths with a small amount of bleach added to the water. The bleach helps to kill bacteria that live on the skin of people with eczema.
- Short, warm showers. People with eczema should avoid taking very hot or very long showers or baths, which can dry out your skin.
- Reduce stress . Take steps to reduce stress. Get regular exercise and set aside time to relax.
- Get a humidifier.
Medications and other treatments for eczema include:
- Hydrocortisone . Over-the-counter hydrocortisone cream or ointment may help mild eczema. Prescription steroid cream may be needed for more severe eczema.
- Antihistamines . Oral antihistamines such as Benadryl are available over-the-counter and may help relieve symptoms. Some of these cause drowsiness, which may be of benefit if nighttime itching is a problem. There are also non-drowsy antihistamines.
- Corticosteroids. If other treatments fail, your doctor may prescribe oral corticosteroids. Always follow your doctor's directions when taking oral steroids.
- Ultraviolet light therapy. People with very severe eczema may benefit from therapy using ultraviolet light.
- Immunosupressants. Drugs that suppress the immune system may also be an option. These medicines, such as cyclosporine, azathioprine, or methotrexate, may be used when other treatments have failed.
- Immunomodulators. This type of medicated cream helps treat eczema by controlling inflammation and reducing the immune system reactions. Examples include Elidel and Protopic.
- Prescription-strength moisturizers. These replace the barrier of the skin. Examples include Hylatopic Plus, Mimyx, and Epiceram.
WARNING: The FDA has issued its strongest "black box" warning on the packaging of Elidel and Protopic. The warning advises doctors to prescribe short-term use of Elidel and Protopic only after other eczema treatments have failed in adults and children over age 2. Younger children should not take these medications.

Forget any stereotypes you might have about an auditor.
Ralph Campbell, Jr., state auditor of North Carolina, just doesnt fit the image. A dynamic, outgoing 54-year-old, Campbell attacks his job with a creativity seldom found in his profession. He has been a highly visible and successful constitutional officer, moving the state to a leadership position in fiscal management through the use of information technology. And hes not shy about his accomplishments.
"Im just good!" he joked, adding that his position as an elected official allows him the freedom to inspire change. "You end up being the one to conduct the affairs of your department based on the desire of citizens as opposed to the direction of the legislature. It has a great deal of independence. On the other hand, you have to run for re-election."
"As chairman of the states Information Resource Management Commission (IRMC), Campbell is also in a powerful position to guide internal and external development of online systems that benefit the public and make government more efficient.
Early Inspiration
Campbells experience in politics began when his father served as president of the NAACP in Raleigh during the height of the civil rights movement. From 1958 to 1969, his family welcomed leaders such as Martin Luther King, Jr., to the oval table with white iron legs where courageous men and women gathered to develop strategy in the struggle for equality.
"Aside from pushing for change, you had to be involved in the social process," remembered Campbell. "The people who changed the laws were those who got elected to office."
He suspects this is what drove him and his younger brother Bill, now mayor of Atlanta, to run for public office. After campaigning for Bill, Campbell was inspired. He returned to Raleigh and won a seat on the City Council in 1985. His commitment to a life of public service was born in this local office, but it didnt stop there. In 1993, he became the first African-American in the states history to be elected to a statewide, constitutional office.
Getting to Work
Campbell wasted no time in automating the auditors office to better serve North Carolinas state agencies and the public. Every year, there are more than 300 audits conducted by Campbells office, including 45 departments, colleges and universities. Today, every auditor has a laptop with audit programs and forms online. Not only did technology make the auditors job faster, it provided a training mechanism for new employees in the department. To the dismay of some public employees, Campbells auditors became increasingly efficient and effective.
"Through our hotline, our auditors were notified of purchasing irregularities in the Department of Corrections," said Campbell. "Officials had bought a 115-year supply of little shirts and very large shoes for $7.5 million."
An audit of the departments books quickly revealed kickbacks from vendors for corrections officials. "Now we have some help for our legislators in developing a profile of criminals," joked Campbell: "Little bitty shoulders and great big feet!"
Most audits bring less attention, and Campbell likes it that way. "We have built a strong foundation of accountability, reliability and integrity," he said. "We have taken the Office of the State Auditor into the Information Age and now, as IRMC chair, I want to take state government along."
A Natural Visionary
Campbell wants to see an expansion of portal development throughout the state under an enterprise-wide plan that links state and local government to businesses and citizens. Since September, citizens in North Carolina have been able to obtain motor vehicle tags and purchase tickets to the perennially popular state fair online. Campbell looks forward to online acceptance of income tax payments and professional licensing

Sell Yourself
A late-night commercial that runs on the West Coast features a guy wearing a white cowboy hat, and his pet, Spot, by his side. But each time "Spot" is a different animal: a tiger, an elephant or even a large snake. Any TV viewer in California or Arizona, whether he likes or dislikes the ad, can immediately identify the company, the product and the guy who owns the operation. That's known as brand recognition marketing.
What does it have to do with driving a truck? A lease operator or a company driver would probably answer, "Not much. The company provides me with the loads, I pick them up and I deliver them. Marketing isn't my responsibility." Really?
You drive a tractor with up to 53 feet of trailer. Think about it as more than a mere vehicle. It's also a large, mobile billboard with your trucking company's name on the doors and most likely the trailer as well.
Every lane change you make, each back to a dock, every time you enter or exit an interstate, you're being noticed by customers, potential customers or folks who have influence with them. How do you want them to think of your company?
Successful marketing impacts the bottom line of the your trucking company, which in turn directly affects the stability and sustainability of the company. An independent driver should always keep this in mind. But even if you are a lease operator or company driver, a customer who remembers you positively can help secure your position, by providing the loads that create the revenue that makes your paycheck possible.
So while a company might take care of the big marketing strategy — promoting its safety record, its delivery time or its staying power in the industry — each individual driver can add to the effort with signature gestures.
One lease operator who hauled specialized components for several Fortune 500 companies made a point of purchasing postcards at each truckstop he pulled into. Then he mailed one to every shipper (usually the person he had direct contact with when he loaded), the salesperson or broker who booked the load and the receiver (the person he had contact with when he unloaded). On the postcard, he thanked them for the opportunity to haul for them, provided his own contact information in case there were any problems, as well as contact information for the customer service representative at his carrier.
It didn't take much of his time, but years later he saw the impact. He attended a retirement party for a dock supervisor. The entire backdrop of the stage at the dinner was covered with the trucker's postcards.
Later, this same trucker had gotten his own authority and was calling on a former shipping supervisor of one of his old clients. The supervisor was now the CEO of his own new company, and an entire wall of his office was covered with the trucker's postcards. In both these cases, who do you think these customers thought of when they looked at the postcards? Now, that's brand recognition, as only a successful trucker can market it.
Every time you climb in and out of the cab of your truck and interact with others, whether it's a shipper, receiver, or just someone on the road, the impression with which you leave them can influence your success or failure and that of the company you represent. With a little effort you can distinguish yourself from the pack, and reap the rewards.

The Youth Gathering raised more than $1 million, thanks to worship offerings from both weeks and the "Hamiltons for Hunger" appeal.
Offerings, which totaled about $580,000, will benefit domestic and international ministries that support children, youth and families.
In the "Hamiltons for Hunger" effort, every gathering participant was asked to bring $30 or "three Hamiltons" to raise $1 million for the ELCA World Hunger Appeal. More than $530,000 was raised as of July 17.
In addition to cash donations, about $100,000 in gift cards was also collected during the gathering to benefit six San Antonio organizations.
Everything's bigger in Texas—especially God,
when the NYG is there. That was just one slogan on thousands of
T-shirts crowding the streets of San Antonio at the ELCA National Youth
Gathering in July. About 40,000 Lutheran youth from all over the
country brought a little bit more God to Texas during the event.
Averaging four hours of sleep and running on adrenaline and Jesus, they sang grace in restaurants, traded stickers and bracelets, and chanted regional versions of Jesus Loves Me. They surrounded the only McDonald's with lines out the door and claimed the Alamodome with Christ-inspired conga lines.
The triennial gathering was held over two weeks, with more than 15,000 high-school kids and chaperones attending July 5-9 and another 24,000 July 12-16.
MYLE, the Multicultural Youth Leadership Event, and DAYLE, the Definitely-Abled Youth Leadership Event, were held July 2-5, while the Seventh Triennial Convention of the Lutheran Youth Organization took place July 9-12.
This year's gathering theme, Cruzando (Spanish for "crossing"), was about following Jesus and crossing boundaries, a concept that came alive through San Antonio's proximity to the U.S.-Mexican border.
But Cruzando was more than a leap into ethnic diversity. It was about transcending barriers that keep people alienated from God and each other.
Through speakers, musicians, workshops, interactive experiences and service, Lutheran youth came together for five days to strengthen their faith. I tagged along the second week as a youth group "groupie" and experienced cruzando with some of the most passionate, empowered teenagers one could meet.

PHOENIX, Arizona, August 23. THE 2014 Commonwealth Games will be the first major international swimming championship next summer, offering the best swimmers from countries that are part of the Commonwealth of Nations.
Earlier this week, organizers announced that the meet will be held in Glasgow, Scotland, from July 24 to 29. This meet has often been one of the fastest in the years when the Olympics and world championships are not held, and has the potential to do the same, as 13 individual world championship medalists from Barcelona are likely to participate. The 2010 championships in India was plagued by intestinal issues for a few swimmers, but was also where Chad Le Clos claimed his first major international victory in the 200 fly. Alicia Coutts and James Magnussen made major debuts at the meet in India as well.
One month later, some of the nations will fly to Australia to participate in the Pan Pacific championships, while the rest will swim in the European championships in Berlin. Both meets will take place at virtually the same time, as Pan Pacs is scheduled for August 20-25, while Europeans will take place August 18-24. Every country puts a strong focus on the Commonwealth Games, and the top countries will also work to hold tapers for the second championship meet in August.
What makes these meets interesting is that the territories that make up the United Kingdom — England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland — will compete separately at the Commonwealth Games, then band together as Great Britain to race at the European championships. As two of the four "charter nations," Canada and Australia are contractually obligated to compete at the Pan Pacific championships and field top teams.
While the Pan Pacific championships is mostly for nations that border the Pacific Ocean, organizers have opened it up to countries that don't get to compete in the European championships, such as Brazil.

Priorities: Obama Used Autopen To Sign "Fiscal Cliff" Legislations
Roughly since mid-November (NMP) Obama has been Cranking up the pressure on passing "fiscal cliff" legislation. He's been excoriating Republicans. He made dire predictions. He came out to make statements and Blame Republicans. Of course, he himself created a situation whereby the deal was done after the last minute. Nor did he excoriate Harry Reid for refusing to allow a vote on Obama's fiscal cliff plan. But, we were told how super duper massively important this legislation was. So, how did he sign it? The Washington Post tells us in a story that is web-only
The hard-fought legislation that allowed the United States to avoid the "fiscal cliff" was signed into law on Wednesday by autopen, the White House said, less than a day after being approved in a contentious vote in the House of Representatives.
President Obama, who interrupted a family vacation here to oversee the cliff negotiations in Washington, returned to Hawaii on an overnight flight that arrived early Wednesday. He spent the day working out a local gym, golfing and dining with first lady Michelle Obama and some friends at a favorite Hono:lulu restaurant, Alan Wong's.
In between, Obama reviewed a copy of the cliff legislation, titled the "American Taxpayer Relief Act of 2012," and directed that the original – still in Washington – be signed by autopen.
It tells you where Obama's priorities lay in that he couldn't wait to receive a copy of the legislation and sign it in Washington. Nor could he be bothered to even read it on the long taxpayer funded flight back to Hawaii. Nor even read it first thing in the morning. No, he waited till he fooled around while on vacation, and could not be bothered to actually sign the legislation.

ST. PAUL, Minn. (AP) — Jordyn Wieber overcame a shaky start to take a solid lead at the U.S. gymnastics championships Thursday night.
Wieber, who established herself as the next big U.S. star when she beat world champion Aliya Mustafina in March, scored 59.850, putting her almost two points ahead of Alexandra Raisman going into Saturday night's final. Beijing Olympian Chellsie Memmel, doing the all-around at nationals for the first time since 2008, is third. Defending champ Rebecca Bross had a rough night, falling on her first two events, and is fourth, almost three points behind Wieber.
Olympic gold medalist Shawn Johnson made a promising triumphant return in her first appearance at nationals since she won it in 2008, posting the third-highest score on balance beam.

Card Games
Special Decks
Designed by Rudiger Dorn. German edition published by Amigo 2001 and English edition published by Rio Grande Games 2001. For 3-5 players. Takes 30-45 minutes. The game has six suits of 17 cards each (0-15, with two zeroes). One trick is that the back of each card shows which suit the card is. Players can inspect the card backs of other players. Te start player leads 1-3 cards. The only restriction is that the start player may not lead three of a kind. Then each player, in order, may play the same number of cards with the same distribution, or pass. So if I lead a pair, then each other player must either play a pair face down or pass. Players are free to play whatever suit they like, except for the last player. The last player cannot introduce a new suit. If you pass you take 1-3 cards from the ends of the two lines of cards which are fae down in the middle of the table. You can see the backs of all these cards.

Version 5.0 brought a new feature to the Accounts tab showing Last Login Time. (At least I think it was new in 5.0). Unfortunately this information does not seem to be accurate. I had noticed it a few weeks ago when investigating an issue with a user. Admin console showed the user hadn't logged into Zimbra for about a week. When I questioned the user he said he logged in and out every day. Didn't get a chance to look into it any further then, but I had reason to check it again for another user this morning and again it proved not to be correct. I verified with my own account. I logged out and back in to Zimbra, but the "Last Login Time" did not seem to be updated.
I'm thinking this might be related to the "Auth Token Lifetime" setting, but I'm not sure. I currently have this set to 2 days for everyone. So, am I right in thinking I need to change this setting, and if so what would I need to set it at to get more accurate info in the Admin Console? Or is this just a bug? I did Bugzilla and the forums before posting this and came up empty. Hopefully I didn't miss anything.

April 27, 2012
NEW YORK - The University of Alabama football team had its fifth player selected in the 2012 National Football League Draft on Friday evening at Radio City Music Hall with senior linebacker Courtney Upshaw going to the Baltimore Ravens with the third pick of the second round.
Upshaw came off the board at No. 35 overall and was the Ravens first pick of the 2012 NFL Draft. Former UA great Ozzie Newsome is Baltimore's General Manager and Executive Vice President.
"I'm very excited to be chosen by the Baltimore Ravens," Upshaw said on a conference call Friday night. "The wait was a little frustrating at times, but I'm excited and very happy to be taken in the second round as a Baltimore Raven."
The selection of Upshaw marked the fifth Alabama selected in the first 35 picks. Trent Richardson was the first Tide player drafted with the third overall pick by the Cleveland Browns. Two members of the Crimson Tide secondary were next with safety Mark Barron going to Tampa Bay at No. 7 and cornerback Dre Kirkpatrick 17th to Cincinnati. Junior linebacker Dont'a Hightower then came off the board at No. 25 to the New England.
Upshaw, a native of Eufaula, Ala., was the 2012 BCS National Championship Game Defensive MVP as well as the 2011 Capital One Bowl MVP. He recorded a career-best 52 tackles as a senior with 18 tackles for loss (90 yards) and 9.5 sacks. He also returned an interception 45 yards for a touchdown at Florida and earned first-team All-America honors. Upshaw was also a finalist for the Lombardi Award.
In the past four NFL Drafts, Alabama has had 17 players selected in the first three rounds. That includes 11 players in the first round, three in the second round and four in the third round.
Rounds 4-7 of the NFL Draft conclude on Saturday from Radio City Music hall in New York City.

Cameron's takeaway startCameron Diaz eats left over takeaway for breakfast.
The 'Charlie's Angels' star always makes sure she eats in the morning, but doesn't limit herself to recognised breakfast foods.
She said: "I always eat breakfast. My phase right now is leftovers. I believe that if you put an egg with anything - then it's breakfast."
Cameron claims she will eat almost anything - except insects.
She added: "I'm pretty adventurous but you couldn't pay me to eat an insect. I couldn't go to Hong Kong and do those spider fries!
"But other than that I'm pretty adventurous with what I eat."
Meanwhile, Cameron Diaz has said she will never marry lover Justin Timberlake.
The 34-year-old star, who has been dating Justin for four years, admits she is too afraid of commitment to ever tie the knot.
Appearing on 'The Ellen DeGeneres Show' she said: "You know the answer to the question of getting married. I'm a commitment-phobe. I don't want to do it. Anyway, we're kind of like married already."

Have Legal Questions? Ask a Lawyer Now.
Thank you for using JustAnswer. I am researching your issue and will respond shortly.
Can you tell me if you currently have a court order that specifies custody / visitation?
No we are currently still living together.
Thank you. While your husband could call the police on you, they almost certainly wouldn't do anything because it's not kidnapping. When there is no court order that specifies otherwise (i.e. a custody order) either parent is entitled to full custody of the child at any time. So if one party takes the child away from the home, the other cannot allege kidnapping. Kidnapping is the illegal possession of a child.
Now he could certainly file in the county for custody / visitation, but without a court order that says otherwise, you can legally take the kids 6 hours away (or even to a different state) and not break any law.
Hope that clears things up a bit. If you have any other questions, please let me know. If not, and you have not yet, please rate my answer AND press the "submit" button, if applicable. Please note that I don't get any credit for my answer unless and until you rate it a 3, 4, 5 (good or better). Thank you, XXXXX XXXXX luck to you!

Everybody on TV and in movies reads the same newspaper, it seems… and they've been reading that standard newspaper prop for decades. At a guess: paranoid studio lawyers don't want to use real newspapers because they think that they might get a copyright complaint from the paper (despite this incidental use being clearly fair use), so they insist that set-dressers all use the same prop that's fully rights-cleared.
