Katy Perry Spends Almost Two Hours on Her Makeup Routine
Katy Perry is known for her edgy image and her fanciful, full makeup looks. But the singer revealed that it takes her almost two hours to put her face on. That's right! Perry spends 90 minutes achieving her signature long-lashed look.
"I'm a product whore," the singer said. "I have a regimen that spans an hour-and-a-half, and nothing goes out of order." There's something to be said for routine and being a one-woman glam squad. But 90 minutes is a long time to get ready. We're glad we're not the ones waiting for her while she gets all dolled up.
In her interview with fashion and beauty trade WWD, Perry also spoke about her new perfume, Killer Queen, which borrows it's name from a Queen song. She put a lot of thought into making sure her latest Eau de Katy has an unforgettable aura.
"'Killer Queen' has been in my vocabulary since I was 15, because of the song 'Killer Queen' by Queen," Perry admitted. "Freddie Mercury painted the lyrics of this woman who I wanted to be. She seemed very powerful, and she captivated a room when she walked in. I named my company 'Killer Queen' after those lyrics. I feel like, after all this time, it was appropriate to use that name in association with something I did. I feel like I'm falling, finally, into that woman Freddie painted."
As for the way the actually scent smells? It took nearly three dozen tries to perfect the perfume's formula, making it a labor of love.
"It took us something like 30 or 35 tries to get it right," said Perry.
She deeply detailed the notes and accords that went into the recipe, saying, "I wanted some floral [notes], like jasmine, but I also wanted red velvet flower, which is incredible — it gives it the edge that makes it Killer Queen. It does have a bit of a gourmand thing to it — but gourmand like high tea at Claridge's. I wanted the scent to have a little bit of ambiguity. I was attracted to scents in the last couple of years like Alien by Thierry Mugler and Black Orchid from Tom Ford. They're too strong for me to wear all the time, and I didn't want to them to be [copies], just to have a hint of ambiguity like they do. It's sophisticated, but it's not alienating my main group of people."
The main group of people being her Katy Cats, of course.

If you notice a small lump or bulge in your child's groin area or an enlargement of the scrotum, you may have discovered an inguinal hernia. This condition, which is present in up to five of every hundred children (most commonly in boys), occurs when an opening in the lower abdominal wall allows the child's intestine to squeeze through. This inguinal hernia is frequently confused with a more benign condition, a communicating hydrocele.
The testicles of the developing male fetus grow inside his abdominal cavity, moving down through a tube (the inguinal canal) into the scrotum as birth nears. When this movement takes place, the lining of the abdominal wall (peritoneum) is pulled along with the testes to form a sac connecting the testicle with the abdominal cavity. A hernia in a child is due to a failure of this normal protrusion from the abdominal cavity to close properly before birth, leaving a space for a small portion of the bowel to later push through into the groin or scrotum.
Most hernias do not cause any discomfort, and you or the pediatrician will discover them only by seeing the bulge. Although this kind of hernia must be treated, it is not an emergency condition. You should, however, notify your doctor, who may instruct you to have the child lie down and elevate his legs. Sometimes this will cause the bulge to disappear. However, your doctor will still want to examine the area as soon as possible.
Rarely, a piece of the intestine gets trapped in the hernia, causing swelling and pain. (If you touch the area, it will be tender.) Your son may have nausea and vomiting as well. This condition is called an incarcerated (trapped) hernia and does require immediate medical attention. Call your pediatrician immediately if you suspect an incarcerated hernia.
Even if the hernia is not incarcerated, it still should be surgically repaired as soon as possible. The surgeon also may check the other side of the abdomen to see if it, too, needs to be corrected, since it is very common for the same defect to be present there.
If the hernia is causing pain, it may indicate that a piece of intestine has become trapped or incarcerated. In that case, consult with your pediatrician immediately. He may try to move the trapped piece of intestine out of the sac. Even if this can be done, the hernia still needs to be surgically repaired soon thereafter. If the intestine remains trapped despite your doctor's efforts, emergency surgery must be performed to prevent permanent damage to the intestine.

This Leopard 1 tank was yarnbombed at The Military Museum in Dresden on the anniversary of the destruction of Dresden in World War 11. Feb 13 2013
The Story
This yarnbombed tank was created by Kristina Kromer and Barbara Niklas working with the studio group " Louise Combined seam eV ". There were 60 people knitting and crocheting for 6 months , from Sept 2012 to Feb 2013, meeting every Tuesday and Wednesday. They eventually produced 36 kg of material. The group included survivors of the firebombing and young people. Originally the plan was to cover a Russian tank but this met with protest so it was decided to yarnbomb The Leopard 1 . It will be up indefinitely.
We humans try to manage catastrophe and suffering in many ways. Artists use their imaginations to try and bring meaning and healing to experiences that injure us. I mostly know about the destruction of Dresden from Kurt Vonneget's experience in his book " Slaughterhouse 5 "
I'm trying to imagine a survivor of the bombing sitting with a group of knitters making this tank yarnbomb . I think it is affirmation of our constant efforts to bring comfort, creation and love to the flow of life and time.

- What's Included
Lightair's Signature Air Purifier removes almost all airborne particles-mold, dust, smoke, pollen, bacteria, virus, pet allergens, and more-that cause common allergy complaints, fatigue, and headaches from a 650 square foot room. The purifier removes airborne particles by releasing negative ions in the air that attach and negatively charge the airborne particles which then are attracted to the positively controlled particulate collector. Over time the collector will become dirty on the outside from absorbed particles and will need to be washed off with water before being reused.
The air purifier perfectly balances blending in and standing out in any home environment, and emits less than five decibels (dB) of sound for completely silent operation unlike most air purifiers that have a 35 to 80 dB count. Another great feature is the washable and reusable air particulate collector which replaces standard filters so you'll never have to figure out which filter your purifier takes, or have a closet full of the wrong sized filters. You'll be able to breathe easy because the purifier produces no detectable ozone bi-products which are major contributors to adverse health effects from poor indoor air quality.
Specifications Manufacturer Lightair Manufacturer Product No. SIGNATURE UPC 7350037070631 Dimensions 7.5 inches x 26 inches

7 ways to prep for a lean holiday season
Make the most of your wallet and holiday by planning ahead
While we may start our holiday shopping with good intentions to not rack up debt, the rush and excitement of the season -- coupled with unexpected outings and entertaining -- always seem to get the better of our wallets. And this year, the National Retail Federation forecasts that Americans are set to spend 3.9 percent more for the holidays than last year.
"We've been brainwashed," says Mary Hunt, author of "Debt-Proof Your Christmas" and founder of debtproofliving.com. "Forty years ago, no one in their right mind would have even considered putting gifts on credit. We as consumers have allowed ourselves to believe it's OK to spend money we don't have now."
The first way to turn things around this year is to put together a realistic budget, says Jeanette Pavini, Coupons.com savings expert. "Don't just think about gifts. Factor in decorations, donations, if you're going to be sending out holiday cards, the postage costs, etc. You have to think of everything." Some items to keep in mind: holiday tips, teacher or coach gifts and outfits for holiday photos/parties, etc.
So where will the money for all those extras come from? Check out these expert tips for keeping your holiday spending frugal but festive...
1. Cash in on rewards. You might not realize that your credit or debit card purchases might be accumulating points that you can put to good gifting use. "Before you begin holiday shopping, carve out some time to visit your credit card's website or call a customer service representative to make sure you know your current rewards balance and all the ways you can earn and redeem rewards," suggests Brian Meier, director of rewards marketing at Discover. For instance, many creditors allow you to redeem points for store gift cards or merchandise that you can then give to others. Just be sure to place your order a few weeks in advance so you'll have it by the holidays.
2. Get creative. "If everyone in the family is on the same page with spending less, it's fantastic," says Hunt. Some families draw names so they only have to buy (and receive) one meaningful gift rather than several smaller trinkets; others opt to only buy for the children in the family. Hunt says she knows families who take a trip together in lieu of gifts. Another idea is to give an experience (rather than another sweater), such as offering coupons for free babysitting for new parents or a day of activities for a grandchild.
3. Be a deal detective. "Almost every store is offering some kind of a coupon code," assures Pavini, so there's no reason to ever pay full price, whether you shop online or at the mall. She recommends sitting 20 minutes before you shop to locate discount codes and printable coupons for the stores you plan to hit so you're prepared to save.
We've been brainwashed. Forty years ago, no one in their right mind would have even considered putting gifts on credit. We as consumers have allowed ourselves to believe it's OK to spend money we don't have now.
Mary Hunt
4. Save on the big holiday spread. Why should the host of a holiday get-together have to foot the entire bill? Start a family potluck tradition, and even incorporate a theme to make it fun and memorable, suggests Pavini. One idea: "Ask everyone to bring something traditional to their family and print out the recipe so every guest gets a copy," she says. Or, plan a less expensive shindig, like a breakfast, or set up a dessert and coffee bar, says Hunt. Bonus tip: Choose less-expensive wines that you put into decorative decanters, and no one will be any the wiser!
5. Use credit cards strategically. "Whether you're a big spender or on a tight budget, the key is to use your credit card wisely and take advantage of the rewards available this holiday season," says Meier. One often-forgotten strategy is to check out your credit card's online shopping mall to buy gifts that earn bonus points, cash back or special discounts.
Getting poll results. Please wait...
6. Or, stick to a cash-only policy. If you're not among those who can use credit without abusing it, put yourself on an all-cash diet for the holidays. Hunt says a great way to free up some funds is to repurpose your grocery budget by "shopping" in your pantry and freezer for a few weeks, cooking meals with the items you've already purchased (and probably forgot about!). "Then, make sure you're taking only cash when you go gift shopping, and you'll be a completely different kind of shopper," she says.
7. Hold onto receipts and play the price adjustment game. "Most stores will give you up to 14 days to claim a price adjustment," says Pavini. In other words, if you buy an item and then it goes on sale next week, you're not necessarily out of luck. Many stores will allow you to stop in with the receipt and credit you for the difference. Policies and time frames will vary.
Beyond stores honoring price fluctuations, your credit card may offer its own price protection policy as well. For instance, among the benefits of certain MasterCard cards, if you find a lower price for a new item purchased with your card within 60 days, you may be reimbursed for the price difference. Similarly, Citi Price Rewind allows Citi cardholders to track their purchases for 30 days to look for price drops; if the same item is found for $25 less within 30 days, you can get refunded the difference.
While we all want our holidays to be special, Hunt says to think back to your favorite holiday memories and recall what stands out in your mind. Most likely, it's not the fanciful, magazine-worthy place settings or expensive gifts, but the places you went and the people you were with. Once you can change your mindset and rein in your spending, you can enjoy what truly matters and come out on top financially.

If you have a look at /dev/zero's thread here, you'll see that users have been posting the output of his script which are numbers that range from 2 to 5 decimal places. If I dump this entire thread to txt file, how can I:
1) Delete everything except for numbers of the following formats (where 'x' is a digit and '.' is a decimal point)?
2) Format the output to be one target per line?
I have experimented with some sed strings but am not making any traction. Perhaps your perl or awk ninjas have a good solution?

I'm getting closer but still no cigar:

This is not really tested, and quite crude...
awk '/^[0-9]?.[0-9]+/ && !/[A-Za-z]/ {if (NF>=2) print $1,$2; else if (NF==1) print $1}' numbers.txt

Ooh, a challenge...
* 1 hour later *
#!/usr/bin/perl -an
@ary = grep /^\d{1,2}\.\d{2,5}$/, @F;
print join("\n", @ary) . "\n" if @ary;
Run as ./script.pl unixness_thread.txt
Not perfect, it grabs 10.04 which is an Ubuntu version in context, and 4.10 which is an Xfce version... but not too far off. Stick a "sort -n" on the end and knock off the obvious outliers and you'll be half there.
Edit -- just noticed it skips at least one number in parentheses: (8.73086). Was thinking the default splitting behavior would not be a problem but I was wrong. Not sure how to fix this but I think it can be done with -F.
Edit again -- changing the shebang as follows seems to work:
#!/usr/bin/perl -an -F/[^\d\.]/

The Vikings have gone north of the border to add to their secondary.
Cornerback Roderick Williams, who has played in the Canadian Football League for the last three years, has signed in Minnesota, the Vikings announced today.
Williams played his college football at Alcorn State, the alma mater of Vikings head coach Leslie Frazier, and has been an All-Star in the CFL with the Edmonton Eskimos. The Eskimos released Williams last week to give him the opportunity to sign with the Vikings.
Last season Williams had an interception against the Montreal Alouettes, who were coached by Marc Trestman, the new coach of the Bears. Perhaps this season Williams will get another interception against a Trestman-coached offense.

Because of other obligations (mainly my Master's thesis) I had a late start with this Summer of Code, but now it has really begun. Below are the first results, but first some background information.
To make Eclipse understand your Haskell source, a lot of parsing and processing code is needed. Fortunately, this code has already been written, in the form of the GHC compiler. Unfortunately, this code is written in Haskell, whereas Eclipse is written in Java. Part of the purpose of Scion is to overcome this problem. On one side, it communicates with the GHC API; on the other side, it communicates with whatever program is interested. This used to mean Emacs only, but now it also includes Eclipse!
There are essentially two ways to make Scion communicate with a non-Haskell program. One is through an intermediary C program. Haskell can call into C using FFI, and Java can call into C using JNI, so this is technically possible. However, it would be very painful and cumbersome.
The alternative is to communicate through some kind of intermediary format that is sent over a stream (say, a pipe or a socket). This is how Scion's current Emacs frontend is implemented. When needed, Emacs launches a separate process (scion_server) that listens on a local TCP socket. Emacs connects to the socket and sends a command; the server responds in a similar, Lisp-like format. (In fact, the returned value is sent straight into the Lisp interpreter.)
To do a similar thing with Eclipse, I could either make the server speak another language that is easily parsed from Java (XML-RPC comes to mind), or make Eclipse parse the Lisp code. To get quick results, my mentor nominolo and I chose the latter route, so I hacked together some code to parse a small number of specific responses. The full Lisp parser will have to wait a day or two.
Add some code to start the server, connect to its socket, send and receive commands, and we're all set. The screenshot below shows one of the many things that are now within reach: automatic type inference, in a tooltip, straight from Eclipse!
The current code is still full of TODO comments, lousy error handling and hard-coded configuration, but it works. At the moment it is necessary to save the file before the type information gets updated, but I hope that it will be possible to send changes to the server incrementally.
Over the next few days, I will replace my quick hacks by something better, improve the error handling, and make the whole thing more robust. And I should also really, really do something about the hard-coded absolute path that points to the Scion server in my home directory…

Wisdom Wednesday - I Won the Lottery!!
For several years, I left my genealogical research because, I claimed, I was too busy. The truth is it was just too difficult. Not the research mind you; that I have down cold. It was the emotional part of it. The delving into the lives of those who came before me and the somewhat harsh realization that I would never have a direct descendant looking for me. It made me sad and frustrated that THIS is how life turned out for me.
I can smile about that now. Because I realize that the genealogical community is vast and that you simply never know who's going to be looking for who (or whom, you know what I mean). What's more astounding is the way in which technology plays a role in bringing people together to make the genealogical community even stronger. Or help you make a sharp a turn, just like winning the Lottery.
In going back to review what I posted about my family in Cincinnati, I realized I didn't actually write about it in its entirety. I won't do that now, but need to give a bit of the 'back-story' as it were to make my point (yes, I know, it always takes me a while to get there; indulge me). When I picked up my research after the hiatus, the first thing I did was go out and look at the family trees I'd posted oh-so-long ago. I stumbled over a post someone had done regarding a Wersel family member, and I responded. That set the wheels in motion to me going to Cincinnati, Ohio for the first time in my adult life, to spend the weekend at the home of Bill and Kim Strubbe. Bill is my second cousin; they generously invited me to stay in their home, without having met me, so that we could exchange genealogical information. It was an incredible journey for me, truly, and I owe the Strubbes a debt of gratitude.
While I was there, Bill invited our 3rd cousin, Nancy Rybolt, to join us. Nancy brought her husband Bill, who is a family historian himself. The 'cool' factor there is they brought with them a shopping bag full of family documents, some dating to the 1820s. Unbelievable. Nancy told us that she had 'trunks full' of this material; she'd just not known what to do with it because it was old, fragile, and most are in languages she couldn't understand. I'm blessed with having spent the last 7 years or so learning foreign languages and how to read handwriting, so what was impossible for them to decipher wasn't nearly the challenge for me.
When I got home, I poured over the scanned images I'd made of the documents to glean what I could. I wrote about it here, posted pictures, etc. And through the posting of a name here, I received an email from someone looking for help to break down a brick wall they had in their genealogical research. A new client! At exactly the time I needed it. My own work, as an Archivist, has been decidedly bumpy the last few months. Some of my own doing, but mostly due to things over which I have no control. Many, many direction changes; some that I honestly believe would give most people whiplash.
Throughout this process, with all its direction changes, I've received the equivalent of a Lottery win. Through social media, Twitter specifically, I've been connected with a group of genealogists who have supported me in ways, small and big. I started this blog, thinking it would be something to use as a way to get my surnames out there, and it's turned into an amazing vehicle for me to chronicle this journey for posterity. It is because of my new connections that I felt I was ready to really kick my dream of a business into high gear. I've met people in real life who I would have, most likely, not met otherwise and who I consider great friends. I've created and presented programs on integrating Archives and genealogy; a passion of mine from the start. I've started the ProGen Study group to increase my theoretical knowledge as well as my experiential knowledge of genealogy. I wrote a chapter for a book my friend is publishing on genealogy for kids (I'll have more on that later). I'm working on research for clients. And I have several books in mind to write myself.
Did I mention a group of us are getting together in late March to go to the Allen County Public Library in Ft. Wayne, Indiana? Yup. The Midwest Geneabloggers are going to storm the library's Genealogy Center, and then the home of Tina Lyons, who god bless her heart, is opening her home to this exuberant group of genealogists. And, many of those same people will be attending the NGS Annual Conference being held in, that's right, Cincinnati, Ohio this year. Think I'm going? Oh, heck yes.
Thank you, technology and genealogy, for giving me the equivalent of a winning Lottery ticket. I promise, I'll spend it wisely.

That's wonderful Laura! I look forward to meeting you at the Midwest Geneabloggers event and hearing more about how this is going for you. Now if only I could find one of my Jewish relatives with a bag full of documents and photos I'd be set! Thanks for sharing your story!ReplyDeleteReplies
I'm looking forward to meeting you too Jennifer! In all seriousness, I was blown away by what she has, and I'm hoping to spend some time before NGS with them going through the rest of what she has so we can get it stabilized and protected. I appreciate that you took the time to read my post and shared it with others. Thank you.Delete
You have definitely hit the lottery in so many ways. *I'm* excited for you to go to Cinci for NGS because I want to know what else your cousin has in her trunk of stuff! Can't wait to read more. :)ReplyDeleteReplies
And I can't wait to be there with you!Delete
What a find! I need to find the cousins in my family with the trunks of genealogical gold. Can't wait to see everyone in Fort Wayne.ReplyDeleteReplies
We're so appreciative of your efforts in putting this together! I'll think 'findy' thoughts for you :-)Delete
What a great perspective, Laura. Those connections you made with your cousins in Cincinnati are priceless--that's the kind of lottery I'd like to win! (not that I'd mind winning the money kind, either) I really look forward to meeting you at the Midwest Geneabloggers event and also at NGS!ReplyDelete

Mary, I like to keep my burgers simple...a little pepper, a touch of salt perhaps some onion powder and grill to medium rare. Add cheese. However, those grilled pork burgers Indochine would really satisfy my taste buds while getting me to thing a bit outside of the box. Thanks and Take Care, Big Daddy Dave

The committee respectfully recommend that the Convention adopt the 5th and 6th sections of the report of the Committee on Finance and Taxation without alteration; and that the 8th section be adopted, with the following amendment:
In line 41st of the report of the Committee on Finance and Taxation, strike out the words "or other association or corporation," and insert "If the State shall become a stockholder in any association or corporation, for purposes of internal improvement, she shall pay for the stock at the time of subscribing, or shall levy a tax for the ensuing year sufficient to pay such subscriptions in full."
Signed by the unanimous order of the committee.
H. Dering, chairman.
And on motion of Mr. Dering, the report was adopted.
The Report of the Committee on Taxation and Finance was then adopted as amended.
And on motion of Mr. Lamb said report was taken up on its second reading.
Mr. McCutchen moved to amend the 10th line by striking out the word "one" and inserting "two," which was disagreed to.
Said report was then adopted.
And on motion of Mr. Lamb, it was referred to the Committee on Revision and Engrossment.
The President then stated that the business before the Convention was the further consideration of the amended report of the Committee on County Organization.
Mr. Hall, of Marion, offered the following substitute for the 10th section of said report, from the beginning to word "area," in the 163d line:
"No new county shall be formed containing a white population of less than 3,300, nor if the white population of any other county be thereby reduced below that number; nor containing an area of less than 200 square miles; nor if any other county be thereby reduced below that area."
Mr. Wilson moved to amend the amendment by limiting the number of square miles to 400, and the number of white inhabitants to 4,000.
A division being called for, the question was put upon striking out, and decided in the negative.
Mr. Hall, of Marion, moved to amend by striking out the words "and fifty," in the 154th line, and upon this question the yeas and nays were demanded, and the demand being sustained, the motion was disagreed to - yeas 21, nays 20.
On motion of Mr. Brown, of Preston, the vote was recorded as follows:
YEAS - Messrs. Brown of Kanawha, Battelle, Caldwell, Carskadon, Dering, Dolly, Hall, Haymond, Hubbs, Hervey, Hoback, Lauck, Parsons, Robinson, Stevenson of Wood, Stephenson of Clay, Sheets, Soper, Trainer, Wilson, John Hall (President) - 21.
NAYS - Messrs. Brown of Preston, Brooks, Chapman, Dille, Hansley, Harrison, Hagar, Irvine, Lamb, Montague, Mahon, McCutchen, O'Brien, Sinsel, Simmons, Stewart of Wirt, Smith, Taylor, Van Winkle, Warder - 20.
Mr. Dolly moved to amend the 159th line by striking out the words "four thousand," and insert "one half the rates of representation in the house of delegates."
And on motion of Mr. Van Winkle said report was adopted, as amended, and referred to the Committee on Revision and Engrossment.
On motion of Mr. Van Winkle, the Committee on the Schedule to the Constitution were granted leave to have their report printed before submitting it to the Convention.
Mr. Pomeroy, of Hancock, suggested that as they now had nothing else before them the vexed question raised by the resolution offered the day before by Mr. Battelle "might be compromised," either by adopting a proposition already written out or by raising a committee of conference representing in about equal number the opposing views, and let them bring in a report, either to adopt the first of the resolutions offered by the gentleman from Ohio and make that part of the Constitution without any separate vote by the people or raise a committee of conference.
I fully concur, Mr. Pomeroy continued, with the remarks of the gentleman from Logan in conversation on this subject that we ought all to desire a new state above everything else and take action which would meet not only the favor of the people but of Congress. I am not prepared to say, from the fact of this business being hurried through which is the best manner to proceed. I cannot conceive any evil that could result from a committee of conference, as I understand they would certainly report in favor of the first of the resolutions offered by the gentleman from Ohio being incorporated in the Constitution: which is that no free negro or slave after the adoption of the Constitution should be imported for permanent residence. So many gentlemen say they would agree to that there could be no difficulty in the committee of conference, for they would certainly report that part and then might take into consideration the other part. I cannot conceive if the committee would meet in the right spirit, any evil would result, and if so it would be my idea to raise the committee now.
MR. SMITH of Logan. If there is a proposition of this sort proposed I would like for it to be read and if it meets our approbation, I would like for it to be adopted at once without a committee of conference if it can be. If it is thought probable it will not be, let us refer it to a committee of conference. But I would prefer the proposition being read as acceptable to myself and others who act with me. We may as well vote on it at once. I am willing, in a spirit of compromise, to concede anything I can properly concede; and I would prefer hearing the proposition that is proposed to be offered. I understand there is a gentleman who has a proposition, and I would like to have it read and then determine what to do with it, and if it is going to produce any excitement here I would prefer to have it sent to a committee of compromise.
MR. BATTELLE. I regret, for one, that this subject is named now. A gentleman on the other side came to see me this morning, and inquired whether this topic would probably be up this morning. I, of course, could not speak authoritatively but thought it would not; and I pledged him, so far as I was concerned, that there should be no action on this question in his absence. I want no action here that shall be a vote one way or the other without the fair presence and concurrence of gentlemen interested in both ways. I want, if I am defeated in my particular opinions on this subject, to have it fairly done; and if I succeed in my views I wish it fairly done; and for that reason, especially that I pledged myself to the gentleman who is absent, that nothing should be done here without his presence. I would regret that anything more be done at least than what was indicated by my friend from Hancock, the appointment of the committee. I would not wish to go into the discussion of the question in the absence of this gentleman.
MR. DERING. How would it do to make it an order of the day for three o'clock?
MR. BATTELLE. I suppose the appointment of a committee would be no infraction of that understanding?
MR. DILLE. I have for some time had more trouble in reference to this question than perhaps any other that might be brought up before this Convention in any manner; and I have felt that something like this provision would harmonize and conciliate and do everything consistent to bring about a perfect harmony upon this, of all others, the most vexed question in our country. And I suppose, really, that we ought in the spirit of compromise come to some definite conclusion without any discussion or agitation upon this subject. And I suggest this morning upon my own responsibility, without even consulting with the friends of the proposition that was laid on the table yesterday, to inquire of the mover whether the first clause of the proposition laid on the table yesterday would probably as a compromise be acceptable to those favoring the motion to lay the original proposition on the table. With the frankness and good feeling characteristic of the gentleman from Logan, he intimated to me that he had no doubt the first clause would be acceptable to those entertaining views adverse to this proposition. I then intimated and I am willing to say that if this Convention can be reconciled upon that first proposition, and that proposition can be inserted in the Constitution with the cordial approbation of the friends of the proposition and those who may be adverse to the whole proposition, that I think we ought to accept it. I look upon a new State in West Virginia as a matter above and higher than all other considerations combined; and I think we bring about a state of feeling that will contribute more to the success - that will concede to the feelings and prejudices of our people and to the feelings and prejudices of those to whom we must look if we expect admission as a state into the Union. And if I can have the assurance that that proposition will meet with the approbation of this Convention, it will afford me great pleasure to present it; and having been accepted by those who oppose the whole proposition, I will say to them that as one individual I will oppose any action being taken on the latter clause of the proposition. I think it is right; I think it is due to members of the Convention, that we should make mutual concessions on this subject.
MR. POMEROY. I will now move, to test the sense of the house, as there are a number of gentlemen present on both sides, that a committee of eight be appointed. I see no evil that can result from this committee of conference. They would certainly report on the first part. Whether they do or not, it will be open to the Convention afterwards. And I want to say, Mr. President, that I hope all these things will be met in a spirit of conciliation and good feeling - no undue excitement on this subject at all. The committee will certainly report this first proposition, which the gentleman from Preston says he is in favor of; and I also am favorable to it, because we do not want any free negroes here.
MR. BROWN of Kanawha. I have just learned definitely of the proposition of the gentleman from Preston and his declaration; and I am very ready to say that I will meet him half-way with the right-hand of fellowship and adopt his proposition at once as a full settlement of this matter. And I believe, sir, it will give peace and quiet to our people; it will do justice to all, and it will compromise the rights of none; and when so great and good an object can be done, I shall be one of the first to accept and sustain it. I hope it will be the pleasure of every gentleman in the house to do the same thing.
MR. CALDWELL. I hope after the remarks we have all heard from my friend from Kanawha county that the gentleman from Hancock will see the impropriety of prolonging this matter any further and of the absence of any necessity for appointing a committee. I think this house now is in a position in which this proposition can be adopted, calmly and coolly, and almost unanimously adopted; and I hope my friend from Hancock will withdraw his motion for a committee, and I trust we will pass it unanimously.
MR. HERVEY. I am very much pleased to hear the proposition made by the gentleman from Preston. I have had some conference with a number of gentlemen who opposed the motion to lay on the table yesterday. We have great confidence in the discretion and forecast of the gentleman from Preston, and I confess, sir, that I have no fears at all. I believe it is bound to be a free state; and I have no doubt that as this seems to be the only exception by the persons from both sides that we better just vote that proposition as it stands without the committee.
A member asked what the precise proposition was. The Secretary reported the first clause of Mr. Battelle's proposition as follows:
"No slave shall be brought or free person of color come into this State for permament residence after this Constitution goes into operation."
MR. DILLE. I hope it will be the pleasure of the gentleman from Hancock to withdraw his proposition. And I hope further, with the feeling that I see around me on this subject that this proposition may be inserted in the Constitution by an unanimous vote. I do not want a dissenting voice on that subject; and I want the whole matter to end there, I think we might spare a good day's work and a day's work that will tell upon the future of the new State of West Virginia.
THE PRESIDENT. The Chair is of the opinion that if the disposition to compromise this question exists in the Convention - and it seems to exist there - that it would be certainly inadvisable to appoint a committee; that after what has occurred, it might carry the idea abroad that there was a division here; that what we did we were forced to do through a committee of compromise. The Chair would therefore suggest to the Convention that if there is that unanimity which the Chair hopes there is, then it is better to dispense with the committee.
MR. POMEROY. The mover of the motion will very cordially withdraw it if the Convention is ready to vote. I can very cordially vote for that proposition and I thought the committee could do no harm.
MR. BATTELLE. I wish to say at this point that in view of the considerations before stated by myself I should prefer that action be not taken this morning on this question; and if anything is done I should prefer the direction intimated by the gentleman from Han- cock. As I said before, I know there are gentlemen absent on both sides of this question, but I speak especially of gentlemen I know to be absent on the other side who before leaving came to me and intimated their desire that the question be not brought up this morning. As far as I am personally concerned, I expressed my own preference that it should not come up, and that if it did they should be notified thereof. I feel that my honor is involved in this point and if the question is to come up for final action here, it is but right that they should be present. I will add, further, that personally I would prefer to have more time for reflection on this subject. The idea of incorporating this single provision is a new proposition to me, and I do not think it can interfere with the harmony and good feeling that prevails here this morning to either refer or allow the vote to be taken to-morrow morning. I should prefer that direction to the taking of the vote now and I think it would be the fairest on all sides if we could understand it that the vote was to be taken then and everybody could be present.
MR. RAYMOND. I am in hopes the gentleman from Hancock will withdraw. I think the resolution of the gentleman from Preston is the very thing, sir, that I wanted when I came here.
THE PRESIDENT. The gentleman has withdrawn his motion.
MR. STEVENSON of Wood. I was going to make this suggestion - or if necessary make a motion - as there are a number of gentlemen absent on both sides of this question, that they should have an opportunity of recording their votes on this subject if they thought proper, either to-day or to-morrow.
SEVERAL MEMBERS. Certainly.
THE PRESIDENT. It will be considered as the sense of the Convention.
MR. POMEROY. I hope it will be the unanimous consent of the Convention that the vote be recorded on this, the yeas and nays.
MR. PARKER. If I understand, this is on the first clause.
The Secretary read the first clause of the propositions submitted yesterday by Mr. Battelle.
MR. PARKER. No one would be more gratified than myself if the whole question could be entirely ignored. The only question in my mind - and the question has been there for some time is whether we can get through Congress - whether we can consummate our end. If we could do this without touching the question at all, it is my desire and has been all the time. Now the question arises in my mind whether the adoption of what now seems to be pretty generally conceded - if that is to be satisfactory and enough, I am for it - that is, if it is necessary. But whether it goes far enough to meet what will be necessary, to ensure us admission - the approval of Congress and admission - that is the question. And it is a vital question, it seems to me. I would therefore, Mr. President - because I don't believe discussion on a question of this kind is going to do any good - 1 should hope that the matter might be referred to a committee fairly representing both parties here - say of eight - and that they investigate the whole matter and report what in their judgment the Convention ought to do to secure us success. Because unless we meet with that success there, why then the whole thing here is a stupendous and expensive abortion, not to say disgrace; and its projectors and conductors, including ourselves, would be the object of universal derision.
THE PRESIDENT. The question is a plain one. Everybody seems to have made up his mind. The object of the Convention is to avoid discussion as far as possible.
MR. STUART of Doddridge (who had just come in). When I vote on this, do I understand that I am voting on it as a compromise measure, and as settling the question?
A MEMBER. Yes, sir.
MR. STUART of Doddridge. Then, sir, I do not want to say one word.
MR. BATTELLE. The gentleman from Doddridge is now in and I wish the Convention to bear me witness that the coming up of this question now is not by my act and that I have redeemed in good faith the promise I made him this morning. I much prefer that this question should not be considered now and especially after the intimations given to it.
And I wish here to say that so far as I am concerned, as an individual, I enter into no arrangement with regard to compromises in this fashion. I expect to vote for what suits me and to vote against what I dislike. I should much prefer if the question did not come up this morning and was willing, so far as I regarded it as violating no understanding with individual members - if it did come up at all, that it be referred to a committee such as indicated by the gentleman from Hancock, of four persons on each side. I should feel myself, if voting for that proposition, bound to at least pay very respectful attention to their report whatever it might be. I am prepared to vote for the pending proposition in good faith; but I wish to say in answer to the question of the gentleman from Doddridge that on my part I do not enter into this arrangement as a matter of compromise; because there has been no arrangement which could give it the dignity of a compromise: I mean no such parliamentary arrangement, for instance, as its reference to a committee.
And I will say, sir, with the indulgence of the Convention while on the floor - and that is the crowning motive impelling me as an individual in all this business - that we should have a new State; and I desire to see such action taken as will most effectually secure that end. I have not had time for reflection to determine in my own mind how far it will go towards securing that end. I should have preferred, if the question must be mooted to-day at all, that it be referred to a committee fairly and properly constituted of gentlemen of different views, that they might report to us to-morrow morning.
The question was taken on Mr. Dille's motion to incorporate the first proposition in the Constitution and it was agreed to, with a single dissenting vote, that of Mr. Brumfield, the vote in detail being as follows:
YEAS - Messrs. Brown of Preston, Brown of Kanawha, Brooks, Battelle, Chapman, Caldwell, Carskadon, Cook, Dering, Dolly, Dille, Hansley, Hall, Haymond, Harrison, Hubbs, Hervey, Hagar, Hoback, Irvine, Lamb, Lauck, Montague, McCutchen, Mahon, O'Brien, Parsons, Powell, Parker, Pomeroy, Robinson, Ruffner, Ryan, Sinsel, Simmons, Stevenson of Wood, Stephenson of Clay, Stewart of Wirt, Stuart of Doddridge, Sheets, Soper, Smith, Taylor, Trainer, Van Winkle, Warder, Wilson, John Hall, (President) - 48.
NAYS - Brumfield - 1.
Several members appealed to Mr. Brumfield to change his vote and make it unanimous.
Mr. Brumfield replied that he didn't "take as much part in the discussions as some of the members," but he always "did his own voting."
The members absent when the vote was taken were: Paxton, Mahon, Willey and Walker.
MR. RAYMOND. I congratulate this house and the country on the vote just taken. If nothing more is said about slavery here, it vnll do more than anything this house can do to cause all opposition to this Constitution and this new State to cease. And I ask my friend from Ohio (Mr. Battelle) never to mention slavery here again.
Mr. Dering moved to adjourn.
MR. BATTELLE. Will the gentleman withdraw his motion a moment?
MR. DERING. Certainly.
MR. BATTELLE. Indulge me a moment while I say that I join in the congratulations of my friend from Marion; except in so far - which I suppose he did not intend - as his remarks imply any reflection on me individually for mooting a subject here which in my judgment as a representative in this Convention I see proper to moot. I hope, however, the gentleman intends no reflection on me personally.
MR. RAYMOND. I intended nothing of the sort.
*Mr. Battelle moved that the said additional section be referred to the Committee on Revision and Engrossment, which was agreed to.
And, on motion of Mr. Dering, the Convention adjourned.
*See note. Vol. II, page 219.

Cool moves: Blades flash at Winterfest on Ice
The holidays are madness. The air is cold, parking lots are packed, and the kids are probably screaming about some video game or Barbie doll. Bring on a little distraction!
On Sunday, December 12, the Charlottesville Ice Park hosted Winterfest On Ice. With 40 acts ranging from the cute to the impressive, local and visiting skaters laced up their bladed boots for cheerful little shows of skill and talent.
While the acts weren't quite as fancy as the Ice Capades, the heart and camaraderie of the performers was just as affecting. Skaters ranged in age from 4 to 60, with each act doing its best to entertain the audience of friends and families.
The annual holiday show was organized by the Charlottesville Figure Skating Club, the local branch of the United States Figure Skating Association. Three of the club's members, Ryan and Mimi Edwards and Samantha Veloso, were finalists this year in the Junior National Championship. Their performances received big cheers and applauses as they sped around the rink leaping and spinning like little dervishes.
The evening satisfied fans of figure skating as well as die-hard hockey mavens: the UVA team took to the ice after the show to satisfy everyone's thirst for body checks and bruises. Just like the sale tables out at the Mall!
Happy Holidays!
Performers get a big smile from Shelly Blallock.
Ryan and Mimi Edwards: brother and sister by day, champion figure skaters by night
Family and friends watch the action.

Mean Curvature, Cavity Map, ZBrush and nice tricks for enhancing surface shading
a practical example using a 3D scanned model of ancient statuette of the Assyrian demon Pazuzu (courtesy of Denis Pitzalis C2RMF/Louvre). The plain model (shown on the right) is rather dull and not very readable and at a first glance you cannot appreciate the scale of the scanned details.
steradian denoting the portion of sky that you can see from a given point) for each vertex (Filter->Color->Vertex ambient occlusion) or just resort to a quick and dirty Screen Space Ambient Occlusion (SSAO) approximation (render->Screen Space Ambient Occlusion).In the first case as a bonus you are able to tweak the computed value as you want (by playing with the quality mapping tools), in the second you have just an approximation, but the nice fact is that it is a decoration e.g. it is blended over the current frame buffer and therefore it mix up with whatever rendering you have. In the two pictures per vertex AO vs SSAO.
Mean Curvature is what you need, you can think it as the divergence of the normals over the surface and it captures well the concept of characterizing local variation of the surface. There is a vast literature on computing curvatures on discrete triangulated surface and MeshLab exposed a few different methods (and it has also a couple of methods for computing them on Point Clouds). The fastest one (a bit resilient on the quality of the mesh) is filter->color->Discrete Curvature. On the right you can see the result of such filter mapped into a red-green-blu colormap.
if you want expmeriment you can try the various options under filter->normal->compute curvature principal direction (be careful some of these filters can be VERY SLOW).
Now the final step is just to use this value for the shading. Just start the shader called ZBrush and play a bit with the parameters and then, hopefully, you can get the desired result. Some notes. It happens that curvature has some outliers so clamping the quality values before starting the filter can be a good idea (filter->quality->clamp). Similarly the range can be very large so playing with the "transition_speed" parameter of the shader can be a quite useful. To vary the amount of "pits" use the "transition center" slider.

I can't find the Shader called Zbrush and neither Filter->Quality->Clamp (1.2.3b). Help-me please. [I very curious about Meshlab and I use it alot here in CTI/Brasil (I sent you a mail) and I am always visiting the blog to read those tutorials and apply them in my experiments]

Are you using the very latest (March 19th) Beta?
Quality Clamping filter was included in that beta version.
In previous MeshLab version you could obtain similar clamping results with the
Filter->Quality->PerVertex Quality Function
If you want to clamp the quality to the [MINQ,MAXQ] range just call that filter twice with the following expressions:
if(q > MAXQ,MAXQ,q)
if(q < MINQ,MINQ,q)
yes, you can use if() in the expressions...

Would it be possible to get a link to download the model of Pazuzu? I would live the chance to 3d print one.

text: Hello, Everyone in this forum knows how much difficulty I've had with ISPConfig 3 (especially Till and Falko). I know at the end of everyday that it is user error, although it is nice to try and blame it on the program you're using. The fact is that I like ISPConfig and want to use it. Here is what I have done and need a suggestion on what to do. I purchased a 5 block of static public IP's which will be routed directly to each server. I have only one site live on server one and server two is just getting Fedora 14 x84_64 installed today. Should I just format the original server and start over with "The Perfect Server Instructions" for both? The first server is having so many problems (although they just seemed to happen out of the blue?). I would love to be able to just adjust the first server with the the new public static ip. I know this will involve changes to the databases, firewalls (no more port forwarding is involved) and other files, but I simply can't remember all of them. Thanks for the suggestions and help!

- Biography:
- Born in Tampa and lived north of Tampa in the New Port Richey area until I met my wife and moved to Polk County around 2001. Joined the Police Academy and started my career as a Police Officer. My wife and struggled to have children. Just a string of miscarriages and a lot of practicing. Not sure which was tougher on my wife, the miscarriages or all the practicing. But we finally decided that having a child biologically maybe wasn't meant to be so we began the grueling process of adopting. We had always planned on having one child biologically and then adopting a second one so we were excited about the possibilities. There were heartbreaks along the way. The state would put children with us and then once we were in love with them and they were calling us mommy and daddy the state would step in and claim there was a mistake the kids were no longer able to be adopted and would remove them with no warning. So finally we met our children. We were very excited when we were able to adopt Regan (10) and James (8) in 2007. So we went from no kids to holy crap 2 kids closing in on pre-teen over night. I has been great though. Regan and now 15 and learning to drive and James and 13 and just made the Golf team at school. So I worked my way through becoming a training officer, then Detective, and the I was promoted to Patrol Sergeant. I was very content with my Patrol Sergeant position. I had a great squad. Some great guys that were fun to work with just real good cops. Then while on my way to work on Feb 23, 2010 me and my passenger a fellow officer and Jeeper were involved in a traffic crash. I was driving my 2005 LJ with a 4" l;ift and 35" tires. A lady pulled out in front of us and I swerved to miss the collision and instead of t-boning her I hit the front end and jumped her car. I was an idiot and was not wearing my seat belt. I was ejected right through the Bestop Trek Top. Dan was wearing his seat belt and remained in the Jeep. I still think he should have followed me out but he broke his collar bone as his punishment for not following me. So I was severely injured and flown out to a trauma center. My left leg from the hip all the way down had to be amputated. So its not possible to do the Job as a Patrol Sergeant with only one leg so my career in law enforcement was over. I am now a Retired Police Sergeant so I decided to get involved in my second love. Figured if I can't be a cop which I know was my calling I might as well do what I love so I started Jester Offroad back in June of 2011. My plan is to open a shop and offer parts and full services to the offroad community. I know it is a long Biography but there is a lot that has happen to get me to this point in my life.

Prop what? Amendment who?
If you're a U.S. resident, at this point, you've probably given some thought to who you will be voting for for President, and may even know who you'll vote for by now. You may also know, or have some idea, of who you will be voting for when it comes to positions in your state up for the vote this year.
What you might not be prepared for in advance are ballot measures which will be printed on your ballot November 4th, which are just as important, and not always explained clearly or detailed. These measures are one of many reasons why your vote matters so much.
This year, some states have measures up for the vote which may be of particular interest to Scarleteen readers, such as parental notification laws for minors who want an abortion, age of consent laws, same-sex marriage, civil rights, stem cell research, education issues, even a proposal to lower the voting age for primaries in one state (whoohoo!) and another to ban abortion outright (grrrr). Here are a few of them to help you find out what's what in advance.
ARIZONA: Proposition 4 Waiting Period and Parental Notification Before Termination of Minor's Pregnancy. This measure amends the State Constitution to require, with certain exceptions, a physician (or his or her representative) to notify the parent or legal guardian of a pregnant minor at least 48 hours before performing an abortion involving that minor.
Proposition 102 Marriage. Proposition 102 would amend the Arizona Constitution to provide that only a union of one man and one woman shall be valid or recognized as a marriage in this state.
ARKANSAS: Proposed Initiative Act 1. A proposed act providing that a minor may not be adopted or placed in a foster home if the individual seeking to adopt or to serve as a foster parent is cohabiting with a sexual partner outside of a marriage which is valid under the constitution and laws of this state; stating that the foregoing prohibition applies equally to cohabiting opposite-sex and same-sex individuals.
CALIFORNIA: Proposition 4 Waiting Period and Parental Notification Before Termination of Minor's Pregnancy. This measure amends the State Constitution to require, with certain exceptions, a physician (or his or her representative) to notify the parent or legal guardian of a pregnant minor at least 48 hours before performing an abortion involving that minor. (This measure does not require a physician or a minor to obtain the consent of a parent or guardian.) This measure applies only to cases involving an "unemancipated" minor. The measure identifies an unemancipated minor as being a female under the age of 18 who has not entered into a valid marriage, is not on active duty in the armed services of the United States, and has not been declared free from her parents' or guardians' custody and control under state law.
Proposition 8 Eliminates Right of Same-Sex Couples to Marry. This measure amends the California Constitution to specify that only marriage between a man and a woman is valid or recognized in California. As a result, notwithstanding the California Supreme Court ruling of May 2008, marriage would be limited to individuals of the opposite sex, and individuals of the same sex would not have the right to marry in California.
COLORADO: Amendment 46 Discrimination and Preferential Treatment by Governments. Proposes amending the Colorado Constitution to:
- prohibit Colorado government from discriminating against or granting preferential treatment to any individual or group on the basis of race, sex, color, ethnicity, or national origin in public employment, public education, or public contracting;
- make exceptions for federal programs, existing court orders or other legally binding agreements, and bona fide qualifications based on sex; and
- provide the same remedies that are available for violations of existing Colorado anti-discrimination law.
Amendment 48 Definition of Person. Would amend the Colorado Constitution to:
- define the term "person" to "include any human being from the moment of fertilization"; and
- apply this definition of person to the sections of the Colorado Constitution that protect the natural and essential rights of persons, allow open access to courts for every person, and ensure that no person has his or her life, liberty, or property taken away without due process of law.
Amendment 51 State Sales Tax Increase for Services for People with Developmental Disabilities. This would increase the state sales tax to help provide for more help and assistance for those people who have developmental disabilities.
CONNECTICUT: HJ 21 Voting Age. This resolution proposes a constitutional amendment allowing 17-year-old citizens who will turn 18 on or before the day of a regular election to vote in its primary. Under the resolution, such an individual must apply and otherwise qualify for admission as an elector. He or she may then vote in the primary held to determine nominees for the regular election. Upon turning 18, the individual's electoral rights attach. By law, a "regular election" means any municipal or state election. State elections include candidates for federal office.
FLORIDA: Amendment 2 Florida Marriage Protection Amendment. This amendment "protects" marriage as the legal union of only one man and one woman as husband and wife and provides that no other legal union that is treated as marriage or the substantial equivalent thereof shall be valid or recognized.
Amendment 8 Local Option Community College Funding. Proposing an amendment to the State Constitution to require that the Legislature authorize counties to levy a local option sales tax to supplement community college funding; requiring voter approval to levy the tax; providing that approved taxes will sunset after 5 years and may be reauthorized by the voters.
MICHIGAN: Proposal 08-2 A Proposal to Amend the State Constitution to Permit Human Embryo and Human Embryonic Stem Cell Research in Michigan. This is what it says: you would be voting to allow or disallow stem cell research.
MONTANA: I-155 Healthy Montana Kids Plan Act. I-155 establishes the Healthy Montana Kids plan to expand and coordinate health coverage for uninsured children under the Children's Health Insurance Program (CHIP), the Montana Medicaid Program, and employer-sponsored health insurance. The State Health Department may: raise income eligibility levels for children under CHIP and Medicaid; simplify transitions between CHIP and Medicaid coverage; provide assistance for children in employer-sponsored insurance; and work with health care providers, schools, organizations, and agencies to encourage enrollment of uninsured children. Funding for I-155 will come from a share of the insurance premium tax and federal matching funds.
NEBRASKA: Affirmative Action Ban The object of this petition is to place on the general election ballot an amendment to the Constitution of the State of Nebraska to prohibit discriminating against or granting preferential treatment to any individual or group on the basis or race, sex, color, ethnicity or national origin in the operation of public employment, public education or public contracting by the state or any of its agencies, institutions or political subdivisions.
OREGON: Measure 58 Prohibits Teaching Public School Student in Language Other Than English for More than Two Years. Ballot Measure 58 amends Oregon statute to prohibit teaching non-English speaking public school students in a language that is not English for more than one to two years. Presently, local school districts are required to provide programs based on research for the learning of English as nonnative speakers. Those programs now are provided until such time as students are assessed as "English proficient."
Under the measure, students who do not understand English may attend English immersion classes for a limited time before being taught only in English. English immersion is not defined by the measure and will require the Oregon legislature to determine what comprises English immersion and what effect that definition will have on instruction in the non-English language. Further, the legislature will have to address the effect of this measure on compliance with relevant federal laws.
Students entering a public school in kindergarten through grade 4 may attend English immersion classes for no more than one year. Students entering a public school in grades 5 through 8 may attend English immersion classes for no more than one and one-half years. Students entering a public school in grades 9 through 12 may attend English immersion classes for no more than two years. After one to two years, English language learners will be mainstreamed, regardless of whether they are English-proficient.
SOUTH CAROLINA: Amendment 1 Age of Consent. This amendment deletes the section of the Constitution which says an unmarried woman must be fourteen years old or older in order to consent to sexual intercourse. Deleting this section would allow the state legislature to set the age of consent. Currently, the state legislature has the age of consent set at sixteen for most cases.
SOUTH DAKOTA: Initiated Measure 11 Reinstate Prohibition Against Abortion. Measure 11 would prohibit all abortions performed by medical procedures or substances administered to terminate a pregnancy, except for: abortions medically necessary to prevent death or the serious risk of substantial and irreversible impairment of a major bodily organ or system of the woman; and abortions to terminate a pregnancy of less than 20 weeks resulting from rape or incest reported to law enforcement.
When an abortion is performed as a result of reported rape or incest, the woman must consent to biological sampling from herself and the embryo or fetus for DNA testing by law enforcement.

Board of Trustees Newsletter
Stephen S. Bowen '68, Chairman of the Board of Trustees
May 30, 2008
Dear Friends:
In keeping with tradition, the Wabash College Board of Trustees met on Commencement Weekend to conduct its normal business and to celebrate the achievements of our graduating seniors. Although rain forced the Commencement Ceremony indoors, as President White observed, the "weather in our hearts" was "glorious."
In the paragraphs that follow, I will briefly summarize our strategic planning discussions and Committee reports then close with a few words about the Commencement Ceremony.
Strategic Planning Matters
The Board considered a revised draft of the strategic plan that reflected numerous discussions with Trustees, alumni, students, faculty, and staff in the months following the January Board meeting. The plan is grounded in the College's mission and core values and calls for strategic focus in a number of important areas, including: recruiting and retaining qualified students; recruiting and developing excellent faculty; providing cutting-edge skills, knowledge and experiences to students; building or renovating academic, athletic and residential facilities; and cultivating mutually beneficial relationships with Crawfordsville and Montgomery County.
During the summer, President White and his team will prepare a "final" draft of the strategic plan and a first draft of an implementation timeline. The Board expects to approve the strategic plan at the fall meeting.
Committee Reports
John Fox '64, chair of the Academic Affairs Committee, reported that four professors have been granted tenure — Jennifer Abbott (rhetoric), Michelle Rhoades (history), William Turner (mathematics), and Rick Warner (history) — and that seven tenure track professors have been hired. In addition, the College has developed, under the leadership of Division III Chair Melissa Butler and Assistant Professor of Religion Jon Baer, a comprehensive orientation program for new faculty, the cost of which is covered by a Mellon Foundation grant. Finally, beginning in 2008/2009, the Freshman Tutorial Program will be restructured, and writing will be emphasized across the curriculum.
Mike Dill '71, chair of the Admissions and Advancement Committee, reported that the College's Annual Fund is nearing its Hays Challenge goal ($2.85 million) for this year. (If you haven't given to the Annual Fund this year, please do so by June 30, so that we can achieve our donor percentage goal of 40%.) Mike also reported that 263 men have made deposits for places in the Class of 2012, against a goal of (at least) 250 new students. This class is consistent with the last three or four classes in terms of GPA, class rank, diversity, and geographic breakdown.
Joe Turk H'00, chair of the Budget and Finance Committee, reported that the College's operating performance year to date is in line with budget. He also presented, and the Board approved, the College's operating budget for 2008/2009.
Fred Wilson '69, chair of the Buildings and Grounds Committee, reported that the condition of the campus overall is excellent and, in particular, that all but one of the College-owned fraternity houses are in compliance with the Board's house cleaning initiative. (Fraternities failing to meet the cleanliness benchmarks incur a financial penalty.) Fred also reported that during the summer, the new TKE House and the renovated Delt House will be ready for occupancy and the Kappa Sigma house will be demolished. At the conclusion of his report, Fred recommended, and the Board approved, the construction of new baseball and soccer fields and the installation of synthetic turf on the football field (and football practice fields) with completion expected in the summer of 2009. Finally, the Wabash Center for Teaching and Learning in Theology and Religion (a 4,000 square-foot building located on the former Kingery site) was dedicated on Commencement Sunday.
Gary Reamey '77, chair of the College Life Committee, reported on conversations with students Patrick Smith, Gary Simkus, and John Kasey, professors Peter Mikek and Lon Porter, Pre-Health Advisor Jill Rogers, and Dean Tom Bambrey '68. A number of topics were discussed, including the Gentleman's Rule, perceived trends in fraternity membership, increased student involvement in community service and politics, and the heightened visibility of events sponsored by the Malcolm X Institute of Black Studies and by Unidos por Sangre, the Hispanic student group.
Dean Bambrey reported that there were 1,900 student visits to the Shroeder Center for Career Development in 2007-2008, as compared to 1,400 visits last year and 600 visits four years ago. This increase is due, in large measure, to the Center's targeted efforts to involve freshmen and sophomores in career planning discussions. Tom also reported on the hiring of Erik Raeburn (from Coe College) as the new head football coach and of Clyde Morgan (from Thiel College) as the new head track and field coach. Morgan replaces Rob Johnson, who is retiring after 37 years at Wabash.
Finally, Ms. Rogers described her work with pre-med students and what it takes get into medical school. Twelve of our graduating seniors will attend medical school in the fall.
Bill Wheeler '83, chair of the Investment Policy Committee, reported the value of the College's endowment was approximately $365 million at April 30, 2008 (as compared to approximately $351 million at March 31, 2008). Referring to a number of articles in the financial press, Bill also reported a number of banks and other lenders had stopped making student loans. As a result, the College is planning to make loans in the fall to a number of incoming freshmen under a program to be administered by a third party. Whether the College will originate student loans in the future has not been determined. In the meantime, we hope that market conditions will improve and that lenders will resume making student loans.
Kevin Clifford '77, chair of the Committee on Trusteeship, proposed and the Board re-elected the following Trustees to four year terms: Larry Hutchison '63, Lee McNeely '62, Joe Turk H'00, and myself. Kevin also updated the Board on the Committee's ongoing evaluation and assessment of Board and Committee performance. One last note here: congratulations to Jim Kilbane '84 and Ted Grossnickle '73 on being elected (or in Ted's case re-elected) as Alumni Trustees.
At the conclusion of the business meeting, we paid tribute to Joe Barnette '61, thanking him for nine years of exemplary service as our Chairman. We also unveiled a portrait of Joe, which was commissioned by the College.
The College awarded Bachelor's degrees to 186 students, including 33 cum laude, 28 magna cum laude, and 11 summa cum laude.
The College awarded honorary Doctor of Laws degrees to Joe Barnette and Major General Earl L. "Punk" Johnson '38, and a Doctor of Humane Letters degree to Tim O'Brien, an important author whose novel Going After Cacciato received the National Book Award.
I wish you could have heard senior Chris Geggie's commencement address. Near the end, Chris praised his fellow seniors for their achievements and their commitment to community service, and he challenged them in the years ahead to make good use of all they had learned at Wabash. Then he asked, four times in succession, "Who are we?" Each time he asked the question, the seniors thundered (literally) in unison: "WABASH." It was a stirring moment that made clear in an instant that our seniors are confident and ready to make their way in the world — indeed, that our seniors are as confident and as ready as seniors anywhere.
Rest assured, the Wabash spirit is alive and well, and there is nothing in the world like it.
All the best,
Stephen Bowen
Chairman of the Board

Clone libraries offered the same advantage of real libraries: orderly access to information. In most clone libraries, the DNA fragments were stored in E. Coli. These are bacteria that normally live in our intestines. Each E. Coli cell stored a single segment of human DNA and represented a single book of the library. Clone libraries allowed each human fragment to be tracked and easily copied.

Dooney & Bourke
The Heroes star isn't just saving the world from evil on TV — she's helping to bring good design to your closet, too. Hayden Panettiere, who is Dooney & Bourke's spokesmodel, has teamed up with the label's designer Peter Dooney to create the perfect bag for Spring 09. Named after the star herself, the "Hayden Clutch" is made from Italian calfskin and fastened with a 24 carat gold plated lion head, inspired by her astrological sign the Leo. PEOPLE caught up the new handbag designer who told us she was part of the design process from the initial drawing to the lion's head clasp. "Instead of putting my name on it, I put a lions head on it. It's a way of representing me," says Hayden. The clutch shape was also her idea. "I asked if I could design a clutch because it's something that I've familiar with because I carry them around all of the time." The bag will come in a variety of colors including blue, red, black, white, brown, hot pink (Hayden's favorite) and purple. The Hayden Clutch, $295, will hit Dooney & Bourke stores nationwide in December. The Hayden Clutch isn't the first bag by the young star. Hayden also lent her skill to the Hayden Bag, a large patent number, for the Fall 08 collection. Though her bags are a big hit, the star doesn't have any desire to become a fashion designer. "I'm going to stick to acting. If I designed anything it would probably be something for myself, more of a personal thing. I'm not interested in becoming a designer."Tell us: What do you think of the Hayden clutch? Will you buy one?

A happy face is seen near the tents where researchers live at Summit Station on July 11, 2013 on the Glacial Ice Sheet, Greenland. As the sea levels around the globe rise, researchers affilitated with the National Science Foundation and other organizations are studying the phenomena of the melting glaciers and its long-term ramifications. The warmer temperatures that have had an effect on the glaciers in Greenland also have altered the ways in which the local populace farm, fish, hunt and even travel across land. In recent years, sea level rise in places such as Miami Beach has led to increased street flooding and prompted leaders such as New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg to propose a $19.5 billion plan to boost the citys capacity to withstand future extreme weather events by, among other things, devising mechanisms to withstand flooding.

The price of behind-the-scenes access at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art is going up. And some donors in the museum's oldest support groups are talking about dropping out.
The changes affect the long-standing art councils at LACMA, groups of art enthusiasts and professionals who currently pay a minimum of $400 a year in dues and organize projects to raise money for a favorite department, such as photography or decorative arts. The perks include access to private events featuring artists, curators or collectors.
This week, in the biggest overhaul of the system in decades, museum director Michael Govan announced that he was raising dues for members of all 10 councils to $1,000, which does not include a $250-level museum membership they must now purchase each year.
PHOTOS: Arts and culture in photos by The Times
Govan said the fee increase was long overdue. "This change will bring us more in line with other museums nationally," he said, citing higher dues at other museums in Los Angeles, Boston and New York. "To have an affinity group that has direct access to curators and artists, even at the new number, you could call it a bargain."

This exhibition and Web site are a tribute to the heroes who have served their countries in wars throughout the world. The art celebrates the strength and spirit of injured troops, wounded civilians, and their families, as well as the commitment of the orthopaedic surgeons who assist them on their journey to recovery.
