Here�s to hoping the nation�s elected leaders in Washington not only avert the so-called fiscal cliff that looms in a month but also make some headway in getting the nation�s finances in order.
No country, no matter how wealthy, can borrow to spend and borrow to cut taxes forever.
The nature of politics is to lurch from crisis to crisis, deal to deal and, often, gimmick to gimmick. It is very hard for Congress in, let�s say, 2012 to lay down hard-and-fast principles that future Congresses will observe. It is very hard for individual leaders to rise above the muck of the moment and do something unpopular � even if it�s good for the country � especially if it means making common cause with their political rivals.
We have had in the last several years a series of gimmicks and poor fiscal decisions that have driven the federal deficit to untenable levels.
In 2001, President Bush pushed major tax cuts through Congress, ending the balanced budgets the country had enjoyed for a few years. Some of his fellow Republicans pointed out that these cuts were unsustainable, so to get those last two or three crucial Senate votes, a gimmick was born: We�ll call them temporary tax cuts. We are now in the 12th year of a 10-year tax cut, and the expiration of those cuts is at the heart of the fiscal cliff worries. Add to that an expansion of Medicare to cover prescription drugs � without identifying funding for it but costing at least $400 billion over 10 years. Add two wars fought off-budget, as if the cost could be ignored. Add the payroll tax cut President Obama pushed through early in his first term � again a temporary measure. Add the spending and tax cuts for the stimulus programs.
The real gimmicks come when Congress deludes itself into thinking it will act boldly and responsibly tomorrow. In the summer of 2011, Congress turned a simple matter � raising the federal debt limit � into a game of political chicken. Nothing was accomplished, but there was real damage. One of the three major credit-rating agencies downgraded America�s bond rating, bitterly ironic considering that the government continues to issue debt at historically favorable terms and finds a ready market for it.
In the midst of that brouhaha, Congress devised this gun to its own head: OK, OK, we�ll work this out by the end of 2012 � promise � or else the Bush tax cuts expire and across-the-board spending cuts kick in. That scenario is so horrible and that even we in a feckless Congress will have to act. We�ll appoint a commission to begin working on broad solutions right away. But that commission went nowhere.
So now another gimmick might backfire � and more credit downgrades loom � as the clock ticks.
It�s not that good ideas aren�t out there. President Obama appointed the Simpson-Bowles Commission, which recommended cutting farm subsidies and other corporate welfare, closing military bases overseas, raising the Social Security retirement age slowly and modestly, freezing federal pay and cutting the federal workforce over time through attrition, and setting aside funds for the inevitable natural disasters instead of pretending they won�t occur.
And setting a lower, broader, fairer series of tax rates. Close the loopholes. Many pay less, but everyone pays.
President Obama thanked Democrat Bowles and Republican Simpson for their work and promptly dropped their common-sense agenda. After all, he had another election to win. Fine. That�s over now. Let�s go. It�s still the best starting point for a discussion.
History suggests that even in a dysfunctional Congress, hope is not lost. Some leaders � sometimes the unlikeliest of leaders � can step up and make brave, historic decisions. And this is not to say all of the world�s problems have to be solved by Dec. 31. But, to use Washington�s term, you can�t just kick the can down the road indefinitely.
The Examiner of Independence, Mo.
Editorial: The fiscal cliff was entirely avoidable
Here�s to hoping the nation�s elected leaders in Washington not only avert the so-called fiscal cliff that looms in a month but also make some headway in getting the nation�s finances in order.

Arthur Tolkien
Arthur Reuel Tolkien, the father of J.R.R. Tolkien, was born in Handsworth, Stafford, England, about February of 1857. He was the eldest child of John Benjamin Tolkien and Mary Jane Stowe, who had married on 16 February, 1856 in All Saints Parish church, Birmingham, Warwickshire, England. Arthur had at least 5 siblings: Mabel (1858), Grace Bindley (1861), Florence Mary (1863), Wilfred Henry, and Laurence George H. Tolkien. Marian Esther (1866) and Mary Tolkien (1870) may also have been sisters of Arthur.
Arthur's father John had previously been married, to Jane Holmwood, with whom he had four children: Emily, born 1838, Louisa, born 1840, John Benjamin, born 1845 and Jane, born 1846.
John had been a piano teacher and tuner and a music seller, but he had gone bankrupt. Arthur did not follow his father into the traditional Tolkien trade in pianos, which many of his London cousins also followed; instead he became a bank clerk and ended up moving to South Africa, where he was later joined by his fiancée, Mabel Suffield. They were married in 1891. Ronald was born on the 3rd of January, 1892, and his brother Hilary Arthur Reuel two years later on February 17, 1894. Their mother felt the English climate would be better for the boys' health and returned to England in 1895. Arthur remained in South Africa because of business, where he died of severe brain haemorrhage following rheumatic fever, on February 15, 1896, before he had the opportunity to join his family in England. Arthur was buried in the Anglican church in Bloemfontein.

Emergent-Culture needed a new logo design and created a contest on 99designs.
A winner was selected from 44 designs submitted by 6 freelance designers.
My project involves the crafting of my home page header, brand and logo. I believe all 3 items maybe all rolled into one. I am open to other viewpoints on this.
Emergent Culture
Note To Designers: I would appreciate feedback if your are interested in submitting but are reluctant because the prize offer is too low for what I am asking or my instructions are vague, complicated, incongruent or some other reason.
The header/brand/logo I seek to have designed will be used on a news blog with a focus on cultural matters from the perspective of cultural anthropology. What creates and develops cultures. How they change over time. How cultures influence, limit or expand who and what we become and experience. More importantly is what our collective and individual responsibilities may be as carriers of culture.
Think of Indiana Jones. Though that instead of exploring artifacts I explore cultures.
- Item 1...Please go to http://gallery.me.com/rohaan/100049
- There you wil find a gallery of images that I have collected to give an idea of what I want.
- The first image in the gallery is of an existing website header after which I want my header modeled. You may go to http://www.wisergirls.org to see the entire webpage. I am only interested in the header of this website.
- One idea is to have the name Emergent Culture emerge up and out of the landscape with the rays of the sun shooting up from behind. This is one idea that I do want rendered. I will consider other approaches as well.
- The next images are of fonts I have selected. They are in order of preference. You will note a consistency in style and flavor. I am open to other fonts but they must be inline with the general overall image.
- Following the fonts are 3 sunrises. The first sunrise is my preferred background. That is the sun is below or just slightly above the horizon and centered. The sun in the sunrise 1 is rising over a cloudbank. However I want my sunrise to emerge over a landscape like shown on the sample header from wisergirls.org. Though the color of the landscape is too dark in the sample.
- The other 2 sunrises are shown becuase I like the colors of the sky. I would like other renditions to show these other two shades.
- Following the sunrises are 2 maps that I want used as they are used in the sample.
- The first map has the color and texture that I prefer.
- The second map has a compass that I would like integrated into the image complex if it can be done cleanly and elegantly. I like the way the compass has a very light but still regcognizable presence. I know too many elements can clutter a design.
- The colors I prefer are shown in the various samples. They can be described as rich browns, rich lights browns, rich golden colors and rich golden brown colors.
- Oh yes just under the name Emergent Culture is a my tagline "Activating your higher brain centers with news that matters"
- Item 1...I am not looking for other elemenst to emerge out of the landscape like trees rocks etc.

TidyTilt is a new Kickstarter project with a multi-functioning, innovative case/cover that aims to keep your iPhone earbuds in check.
TidyTilt is an earbud cord wrap, multi-position kickstand, and mount for iPhone 4 and iPhone 4S. TidyTilt takes up less space than any one of these devices - yet does all three things - without adding something extra to carry.
With TidyTilt, you can wrap your earbud cords the same way you normally do, while also keeping everything nicely organized and always within reach. The case takes cues from Apple's own Smart Cover for the iPad 2, only instead of on the front, it protects the rear glass of the iPhone 4 and iPhone 4S.
You can even apply it to existing cases you already use, then turn around and mount it to a magnetic strip if you're so inclined.
Their goal has already been met and exceeded at nearly $37,000 from a $10,000 initial funding requirement, and you can have your very own by pledging as little as $19.

"The reports of several attacks in Ampara, Kandy and Digana on mosques, businesses and homes during the past week are deeply regrettable," the OIC said in a statement on Wednesday.
The Secretary General of the OIC, Yousef Al-Othaimeen, called upon the government of Sri Lanka to take concrete steps to address the propagation of hatred and violence by extremist groups and to ensure the protection of properties and livelihood of Muslims in Sri Lanka.
At the same time Al-Othaimeen appealed for calm and peaceful relations between communities, and urged the authorities to enforce the rule of law, investigate the incidents and bring the perpetrators to justice, according to the Colombo Page daily.
He said that the Muslim community has a long standing presence in the country and a tradition of living in peace and harmony with their compatriots.
Muslims represent an important and active community that contributes positively to the cultural and economic life of Sri Lanka as a whole, he said.

Begaye, a senior, was impressive in his first two matches, putting him in a titantic semi-final match which he lost 10-9. He made quick work of two more wrestlers and earned a third place medal, one spot higher than a fourth place finish last year. Evidence of Begaye's tough march to third is that four of the five wrestlers he met placed in the top six. He caps a fine senior season with a 39-7 record and was the first Bronco to compete in the Annual All-Star Classic.
JJ Grover ended his fine Bronco wrestling career with another winner's circle finish; a fourth place finish to go with fifth last year and third as a sophomore. Grover's trail to fourth place included four wins at the tournament. He ends his injury-plagued senior season with a 27-7 record.
Junior Kyle Shumway battled his way to sixth place at 285 pounds. He earned three wins at state and finishes with a 36-14 record.
Also wrestling for the Broncos at state are freshman Ty Hosler (2-2), sophomore Benny Royer (1-2), junior Kyson Shumway, (1-2), senior Cameron Arthur (0-2), junior Oliver Parker (0-2), sophomore Jesse Grover (1-2), and senior Marcus Conway (1-2). Hosler finishes 27-20, Royer 22-15, Shumway, 28-18, Arthur 15-24, Parker 26-16, Grover 14-30 and Conway 19-14.
MHS wrestling news
Aaron Butler's fourth state title puts him in rare company. Not only did Aaron accomplish a goal he set for himself way back in the fourth grade, but he bested all his brothers and father, who own a few state championships themselves, eight to be exact, giving the Butler family 12 state championships in wrestling.
Butler won 13 matches in the four state championship runs, 11 by pin. Butler plans to participate in the senior nationals in Virginia Beach in March, go to basic training for the military in the summer and perhaps wrestle in college in the fall. He has had conversations with Utah Valley University about just such a thing.
Coltan Musselman, with a state championship at 112, is the only freshman in the state to win a state championship in any classification. He also becomes the seventh father and son combination to win state championships for the Bucks, following his dad and assistant coach Ron Musselman.
Ron Musselman won state championships in 1981 and '82. Uncle Bob Musselman won a state championship for San Juan High back in the 1950s, so maybe it is the first son-father-uncle champion combination. Musselman and Butler own the 66th and 67th championship rings for Monticello High since the first one won by Ralph Pelliccia in 1959.
The basketball seasons of the Lady Bucks, Lady Broncos and boy Broncos all ended disconcertingly.
After besting Meridian 43-13, the Lady Bucks were three seconds from the semi-finals, leading 50-49 in overtime against Intermountain Christian when the second-ranked Lions prevented the upset with a 10 foot buzzer beater.
The Lady Bucks had a hard time recovering from that devastating defeat, falling to Bryce Valley 49-35 to end their state tournament one day early. Ashley Dowell ended her exceptional four year career for the Bucks with 41 points in the three games.
Junior Bettina Benally pitched in 38 points and fellow junior Linda Barton tossed in 37 in the three games, a good harbinger for next year. The Lady Bucks finish at 13-8.
The Lady Broncos' season ended at the hands of the North Summit Lady Braves, 55-36 in the hated annual play-in game. Here's a call for an end to the annual play-out game. Everyone else has a double elimination tournament; give 2A the same chance. The Braves broke open a slim 18-15 halftime lead by outscoring the Broncos 37-21 in the second half. The Lady Broncos finish the year at 8-14 in Justin Moon's first year of coaching at SJH.
Coach Ryan Nielson and the boys Bronco team were upset by the Parowan Rams, 57-55 in overtime to deny the Broncos a trip to the state tournament, further supporting my point.
Nate Einerson lead the Broncos with 18 points. The Broncos return three starters for next year after a break-out 17-5 season. They should still be playing, in my opinion.

Okay, this is my first Brikwars army, so bear with it. It's actually just a normal Lego army that I made and I decided that I'd use it for Brikwars. There are no stats as of yet, just the models.
This is the Army in full
These are the treaded or hover vehicles. The APC is called the Wombat, and the overbikes are called Horntails.
These are the Walkers. The Kangaroo and it's baby brother, The Wallaby.
Now we start with the infantry. From left to right: Succubi, another Succubi, Lawran Eldar, Thumas Eldar and and Officer.

I recently read the article "Four Secrets to Becoming a Rising IT Star" in CIO Magazine, and it really got me thinking. Customer service is everything. How many times have you heard someone fume (often for painful hours on end) about working with customer service reps who just don't get it? (Granted, this is often because the reps live halfway around the world, speak English less than perfectly, and have no technical experience.)
While customers' frustration often occurs because the problem is left unresolved, it also feeds off a larger issue: People want to be accepted. They want to be catered to, empathized with, and understood. (Not just understood by those stupid, voice-activated phone trees that never work, but actually understood emotionally.)
To make a long story a little shorter, a little personality makes you a hero. And trust me, the stars in their eyes translate into gold stars with corporate in no time. So, here's what it takes to skyrocket customer satisfaction:
Know the customer. Would you explain a disk boot error in great detail to a receptionist? How about joking how technology is built to break with a business manager? Your attitude and demeanor should depend on the person on the other end: If the user is busy and frustrated, put your nose to the grind. If the user is chatty and curious, don't be afraid to joke and explain.
Ask questions. This is especially relevant if you aren't the person to take an initial request or complaint. Take the time to confirm the situation and ask questions, even if you're positive you know what to do. Talking through it may get the user to remember something he or she forgot or request additional, needed help. If nothing else, asking detailed questions will boost the user's confidence in you.
Follow up. This tip should be obvious. Follow up to make sure everything's working. Follow up to say thanks. Follow up to say you're available if the user needs anything. Follow up to say the weather's nice, but do follow up!
Michael Dragone, a Windows IT Pro contributing editor, also has a few tips about how to be proactive in providing customer satisfaction. You can read about them here.
If your customers still proclaim "Domo arigato, Mr. Roboto!" after a job well done, you've got work to do. But who knows: With a little personality, understanding, and investment in your customers, you might even get a number on their speed dial.

"Surprise" is the word Richard D'Agostino used to describe his appointment as superintendent of Warwick Schools. It's understandable. He wasn't actively seeking the position when he was chosen to fill the role of acting superintendent in September; he wasn't interviewed for the post by the School Committee; the committee hadn't posted it would make a selection on its agenda. Yet, by a 4-1 vote last Tuesday, he was picked for the job.
"Surprise" is not how the committee running the system should operate. Remember, they are elected and they are reporting to us. But that isn't happening.
Start with the action to place former Superintendent Peter Horoschak on paid administrative leave last September. That, too, was a surprise.
Horoschak, whose three-year contract expired this coming July, had not been given a formal job evaluation as his contract required. He was not cited for committing an act that would have merited his dismissal and, in fact, in a press release issued in December when he announced his retirement, the committee applauded his management of the system.
So, why was he pushed out?
Clearly, the committee is not following its own policy or procedures, nor does the public have an explanation of what's happening, or a means of evaluating whether these actions are in the best interest of our children and our schools.
In voting for D'Agostino, committee chair Bethany Furtado said this would not be the time to conduct a search for a superintendent, as it would be a diversion from pressing issues facing the district. Further, she reasoned that D'Agostino has demonstrated he is capable of running the system and that the process of selecting a superintendent can be undertaken prior to the expiration of D'Agostino's contract in July 2014.
Unfortunately, the concern for a smooth transition is misplaced.
Furtado feels this is best for Warwick schools. We don't.
There is never a better time than now to engage in a discussion of how our schools are performing and how they can be improved. D'Agostino may be the man to do that, but with a 15-month contract, he is hamstrung. Instead of pushing the process, the committee has put Warwick schools in a holding pattern.
What's more distressing is that there isn't an agenda. The committee has not defined what it expects of the system or its leader. It has not even finalized a contract with D'Agostino, although he now holds the top job.
To its credit, the school administration is taking a hard look at the system's declining enrollment and how best to allocate its resources - the taxpayers' money. This is not the time for surprises. This is the time for a thoughtful engaged community discussion of where our schools should be next year, five years from now and in generations to come.

Kristen Stewart Didn't Want To Play On The Road's Marylou As Just 'A Wild Sexy Girl'
Before Twilight and even before Kristen Stewart was first approached to be in On The Road by Brazilian-born director Walter Salles, the young actress read the Jack Kerouac novel for school. She told Movieline that she picked up the book because it was an assignment given, but her experience with the now American classic evolved. "I found the book fun," she said. But after reading and studying it more, it became much more compelling and taught her personal life lessons about growing up, making choices and dealing with inhibitions. She also emphasized that while she played the comparatively wild Marylou, she does not judge her uninhibited character.
[PHOTOS: Kristen Stewart, Garrett Hedlund, and Kirsten Dunst Go 'On The Road' in Toronto]
"I learned through the book that you really have a choice about who you surround yourself with. [As a young adult] you realize you can choose who you're surrounding yourself with," Stewart told ML in Toronto where On The Road debuted over the weekend. "Up until that point you're really circumstantially with your family or whatever but at some point you can 'choose' your family.
"I have a great family by the way, but you need to find people who can pull something out from you that might be otherwise unseen. And when I read the book, I thought, 'Gosh I need to find people like that.' I'm definitely not the Marylou type. But as I continued reading it as I got older, the weight of it started to mean something more."
In the film version of the book, Stewart plays Marylou who was first married to, then divorced from, and ultimately a lifelong companion/lover/fellow free spirit to Dean Moriarty. The story centers on Dean (based in real life on Neal Cassady) who meets up with close friend Sal (writer Jack Kerouac's own stand-in) as the two travel across the U.S. as well as into Canada and Mexico. Like Dean, Marylou is anything but monogamous and she dabbles in pleasures that are alien to the wholesome fun of the prevailing culture of the conservative 1950s.
Stewart and the rest of the cast, including Garrett Hedlund (Dean), Sam Riley (Sal) and Kristen Dunst (Camille), met and spoke with relatives of the real-life characters they played in addition to other research before embarking on On The Road. Stewart said that she didn't want to simply approach Marylou as a rebellious young woman with loose morals, but explained that while she gained understanding of her, she remained, to some degree at least, an enigmatic figure.
"To play a part like Marylou, she's very vivid and colorful but also on the periphery," said Stewart. "You don't know her heart and head and the how and why she does what she does. By the time that it came to film, I didn't want to play her simply as this character that is just a wild and sexy girl. With the research we were able to do, applying the whys and getting to know the people behind the characters makes you think about the book differently."
Stewart continued, "It's not easy to live a life like that and that's what makes these people remarkable. I did always wonder how she could take it. How deep is that well? How much can you have taken from you? What I found about her is, that uniquely to her — and not to the time she lived in — was her capacity to see through people's flaws and see past them, which was unbelievable. She was just such a wonderful woman. She was infectious. And, no, I did not judge her."
Kristen Stewart appeared at some moments very pensive and at other moments playful in describing her role and unusually long attachment to On The Road. The period coincided with being catapulted to the height of fame through the Twilight franchise, which morphed into zealous attention from so-called Twi-hards who lived vicariously through her and her equally lauded co-star and real-life boyfriend, Robert Pattinson. And as the world now well knows, that relationship hit the skids in the glare of legions of fans through an onslaught of media spectacle.
Just weeks after the tidal wave of attention, Stewart bravely faced media for On The Road, though handlers were clear before assigning interview time — the subject needed to remain "on topic." Still, Stewart talked about herself personally, saying that the experience she had with On The Road had provided her some life lessons both professionally as an actor and also as an individual.
"If this has taught me anything, it's just that if you stop thinking and just breathe through it, you're such a better actor. You just have to do the work initially and then trust that you've already done that work and not get too analytical. You have to trust that you've already completed that effort," she said.
And beyond the work, Stewart said she now has more confidence to say what she thinks with less fear than in her earlier years.
"It's opened me in a way that's probably more appropriate to my age. I think I'm a bit less inhibited, and not thinking too much before speaking. It's not about being shameful, I'm just a bit more unabashedly myself because of this thing, and it probably started at age 15. I can be around people and say what I think without fear."

Warwick Police Chief Col. Stephen McCartney can't understand it, nor does Sgt. Eric Falcofsky.
The department joined in an extensive statewide campaign that they would be especially vigilant during the Thanksgiving holiday weekend in the enforcement of the state's seat belt law. Yet, officers had no difficulty in finding lots of people who failed to heed the warning and blatantly drove by police without their belts fastened.
"Some people said they just got into the car, that they were just going down the street, that I'm claustrophobic," Falcofsky said of some of the excuses he heard when he made stops. During the Nov. 20 to 26 period the department issued 117 seat belt violations. Thirty-four of those were issued between 7 a.m. and 3 p.m. on Black Friday.
Referring to talk show callers, McCartney said he's heard the argument that government shouldn't infringe on people's rights and that they should be free to choose whether to wear a seat belt or not.
"If they could see what I've seen, I think they might change their minds," the chief said of the injuries suffered by motorists who failed to buckle up.
As for Black Friday, the chief said the crowds were orderly and, with the exception of one arrest, things ran smoothly. The department was prepared for a significant influx of shoppers and travelers over the holiday, which Major Raymond Gallucci forecast at close to 250,000.
Falcofsky said Route 2 traffic kept moving on Black Friday. He suggested the economy, Internet sales and even the synchronization of traffic lights may have had something to do with it.
The click it or ticket campaign was paid for with an Operation Blue Rip Tide grant. The program is targeted at driving under the influence infractions.
As a result of seat belt violations, Falcofsky said the department made three criminal arrests for driving without a license or on a suspended license. He said there was one DUI arrest on Black Friday at 3:24 p.m. near Hoxsie Four Corners.
Violation of the seat belt law carries an $85 fine.

Have I told you how much I love city directories? Yes. Have I done so lately? No. This is a friendly reminder how much I love city directories.
Here is an example of why:
These Lenertz folk in this city directory clipping are my ancestors in 1908 Mankato, Minnesota. Alexander, Henry, Michael and William are the brothers of my great-great grandfather, John Benjamin Lenertz (Robert is Michael's son). John left Minnesota for greener pastures in Oklahoma. Everyone else stayed in Mankato. I've been using city directories to track their lives, occupations and locations.
Check out this city directory. Not only does it tell where everyone lived and worked, it also lists a death date for Henry Lenertz. I used this date to order an obituary. He died of typhoid fever.
But wait...look what it says about William Lenertz. He moved! And it tells me where he moved to. This makes me very happy, because I was having trouble tracking William. I now know he eventually died in Wisconsin, but this city directory he helping me fill in the events of his life.
No shocking revelations here, just happy to be building strong timelines for my Lenertz ancestors...and city directories are helping me do so.

new JSONSerializer().exclude("*.class").serialize( obj );
Pretty simple huh? You can even use wildcards more than once so expressions like:
new JSONSerializer().exclude("foo.*.bar.*").prettyPrint( obj );
Using a plain star ('*') will cause a deep serialization. In previous releases you used the deepSerialize() method to get a deep serialization. You can still use that method. The big thing that changed between releases is the evaluation order of includes and excludes. In prior releases includes were always processed before excludes. So that meant if you did the following:
new JSONSerializer().exclude("*.class").include("my.hobbies").serialize( obj );
In previous release "my.hobbies" would always be processed before *.class, but now they are processed in the order in which you register them. So in 1.5 the order would be to evaluate each field against the "*.class" exclude then evaluate it against "my.hobbies". This enables you do things like:
new JSONSerializer().exclude("foo.phoneNumbers").include("*").prettyPrint( obj );
You might notice a new method I'm using...prettyPrint(). Pretty print is fairly straight forward it formats your JSON output in a pretty to read format. Very nice for debugging.
The other big feature is Transformers. Transformers allow you to register classes that participate in serializing fields. It's best understood as described by a use case. Say we have an object that represents an email, and we want to send it to the browser over JSON. But, emails can have illegal characters for HTML like < or > in fields like the to, from, or cc portions. Before we would have to create a separate method that would HTML encode those characters, and exclude the method that returned those values in plain text. Now we can register a transformer for those fields on the fly. Here's how we can solve this problem:
new JSONSerializer().transform( new HTMLEncoder(), "to", "from", "cc" ).prettyPrint( email );
So the transform() method allows us to register a Transformer called HTMLEncoder. The "to", "from", and "cc" are fields within the email object that we want to run this Transformer on. We can register this Transformer with one or more fields to make it easy on us. The transform() method supports dot notation, just like include and exclude, but doesn't support wildcards.
Transformers can do all sorts of things. Say transform Markdown into HTML from your objects, escape HTML tags and script tags to protect your application, or translating dates into non-numeral format (2007-08-12) or (1/1/2008). Flexjson ships with a HTMLEncoder that you can use out of the box. In the future I hope to add more, especially for security concerns.
This release also has several bug fixes, and performance enhancements. There are some very exciting features in this release. Grab it and see how you like it.

In its last match of the fall campaign, the Lipscomb men's golf team will travel to Jacksonville, Fla., to compete in the Eagle/Osprey Intercollegiate on Monday and Tuesday.
Hosted by North Florida and Georgia Southern, the Eagle/Osprey Intercollegiate will be a 54-hole format with 36 being played on Monday and the final 18 on Tuesday.
The intercollegiate will be played at Deerwood Country Club in Jacksonville, Fla. The course is a par 72 covering 7,223 yards.
Top 100 teams will be peppered throughout the toughest field of the fall for the Bisons.
Of the 15 teams participating, nine are ranked in the top 100, according to the Golfstat rankings. Neighboring Vanderbilt University will be the highest ranked school at No. 18 in the nation. Other top 100 schools include No. 37 Mercer, No. 38 GRU Augusta, No. 53 Southeastern Louisiana, No. 63 North Florida, No. 69 Georgia Southern, No. 85 Troy, No. 95 Southern Mississippi and No. 99 FGCU.
Bisons coach Will Brewer will take juniors Caston Roberts and Paul Kleine-Kracht, along with three freshmen, Mikey Feher, Dowling Armstrong and Sydney Chung to Jacksonville.
In last week's event, Chung fired a season low 65 in the second round on his way to a sixth place finish. He leads the team in stroke average with a 72.75. Feher is just behind with a 72.8. Chung and Feher have combined for five top 10 finished this fall.
The tournament will be Roberts first time playing since an injury sidelined him after the first event of the fall.
Round-by-round results will be posted on Lipscombsports.com.

Akrapovi? is known for making some of the finest sport bike exhausts on the market, with its carbon and titanium artistry gracing many a bike in the AMA, World Superbike, and MotoGP paddocks. Now we learn from our friends at OmniMoto.it that our favorite Slovenian motorcycle exhaust maker is getting into the custom chopper scene, and helping promote the company's launch of cruiser-styled exhausts is the modern-styled Akrapovi? Morsus custom show bike.
Built in collaboration with Dreamachine Motorcycles, the Akrapovi? Morsus features an S&S 113 CI (that's 1,852cc for the mertic-inclined) motor that pumps out 114hp through its modified Akrapovi? exhaust pipe. The Morsus design appeases our modern-leaning design sensibilities, but true to its ethos, it's the Akrapovi? exhaust that really makes us drool over this bike. There's something about an underslung side-venting pipe that makes us happy, and the Akrapovi? Morsus is no exception to the rule. Photos and more after the jump.

You are welcome to comment on this page and this wiki in general. To do so, you will need to sign up.
The most up-to-date version of the documentation can be found under LOD Mapping 201107.
We have decided to use the Bibliographic Ontology for our first attempt to convert our catalog data to Linked Data. The main motivation to do so was to create comprehensible data that lines up with existing Linked Bibliographic Data such as that published by LIBRIS, the OpenLibrary and Mannheim University Library. We are planning to also release the same data using the the RDA vocabularies.
Namespaces used
Note There are several alternatives available for FRBR-vocabularies. We are using the version by Ian Davis et. al because of a naming problems in the current IFLA version. Predicate names in that version have numbers as local name parts, which makes it impossible to serialize the data as RDF/XML.
Mapping of fields
We have mapped to fields from the record-centric RDF/ISO2709-format to a resource-centric BIBO-description as follows. Note that the original field names used below may contain wildcards for single characters (. as used in regular expressions).
| Resource-URI
|The URI of the resource that is to be described is derived from identifier of the record, to be found in <rdfmab:field/001__a>.
| dc:title
|The title of the resource, found in <rdfmab:field/331._a>.
| dc:language
|The language of the resource, found in <rdfmab:field/037b_a>.
| dc:subject
| Subject-Links. These are derived from several fields:
| bibo:isbn
|The ISBN of the resource, found in <rdfmab:field/540._a>. The ISBN is deliberately provided as a string, not a URI, since it is the string that is the identifier, not some resource identified by <uri:ISBN:ISBN>. This conforms to the range defined in the BIBO.
| bibo:issn
|The ISSN of the resource, found in <rdfmab:field/542._a>. The ISSN is deliberately provided as a string, not a URI, since it is the string that is the identifier, not some resource identified by <uri:ISBN:ISBN>. This conforms to the range defined in the BIBO.
| dc:extent
|The extent of the resource, usually the number of pages, as found in <rdfmab:field/433__a>.
|The year the resource was issued, as found in <rdfmab:field/425a_a>.
| rdf:type
| The type of a resource is derived from several fields, thus possibly resulting in multiple types for the same resource. The current mapping is most likely over-simplified and will be subject of a further analysis for future releases:
| bibo:volume
|The volume number of the resource, found in <rdfmab:field/090_a>, which holds the sortable form. If this is not available, the descriptive form in field <rdfmab:field/089_a> is used.
| dc:isPartOf
| Fortunately, the original data already includes many links from subordinate to superordinate records which can be used to link the corresponding resources:
| bibo:authorlist
|The <rdfmab:field/1..._9> fields contain authority numbers of the authors of the resource. To preserve the order, an rdf-list is used instead of simply linking all authors directly via dc:creator. The downside of this is that currently the authorlists are blank nodes and thus not handled ideally by generic Linked-Data-Displays such as pubby. Note that there are basically two types of authority numbers in the data: those maintained by the DNB (which are available as Linked Data) and local hbz-numbers, which are not available as Linked Data. In the first case, the resulting link leads to the Linked Data Service of the DNB, in the latter case the link unfortunately leads nowhere.
| dc:publisher
|The fields <rdfmab:field/412_a> and <rdfmab:field/410_a> contain the name and place of the publisher. To conform to the range of the dc:publisher predicate as defined in the DCMI Metadata Terms, we have introduced blank nodes for the publishers, typed as foaf:Organisation. The place of the publisher is attached as another blank node via geo:location. That blank node is typed geo:SpatialThing and has the name of the place attached by geonames:name, since we lack a mapping of the place names to geonames-identifiers. We are aware that this seems overly complicated, but we are trying to identify and properly model the entities that are referenced in the original data, even if that results in blank nodes in the first run. As soon as an authority file for publishers is available, we will try to link there. We might even have a look at the resulting blank nodes and see if the information is clean enough to form the basis of such a file.
| frbr:exemplar
|In the current state of the raw data, holding information is only implicitly available. Since the records are segmented into packages by instutition, we know that an institution is the frbr:owner of at least one frbr:Item of the described frbr:Manifestation. Since we currently do not have signature-information, those items are once again modelled as blank nodes.
There is a complete documentation of the fields found in the RDF/ISO2709-Version of the data. Unfortunately, the RDF/ISO2709-fields are not completely in line with this official documentation. This is due to the fact that our data passes through an interface that is based on MARC21 before it is published. Some fields are renamed in this process. We are working on either documenting the differences or using the proper fields.
The resulting model
The conversion results in 82.471.813 triples which we have loaded into a 4store instance, providing a SPARQL-Endpoint. To serve the data as Linked Data, there is a Pubby Linked Data Frontend tied to that endpoint here. You can also download the entire dump.
Conversion process
Although we have released the raw data in an ntriples-format, using native rdf-tools such as rdflib for python has proved to be way to slow to handle massive amounts of data. Regular expressions in Perl are much faster, and thus used here. Due to the use of blank nodes as explained above, the script outputs RDF in turtle notation so that blank node identifiers don't have to be generated.
Simple perl-regex based conversion script
Preliminary steps
We have released those parts of the union catalog that participating institutions have holdings in. For each institution the corresponding subset of records was extracted from the union catalog and packaged independently from any other records. This results in duplicate records for those resources held by several institutions. Thus, the first step was to generate a list of unique files. This file is then split up in order to process the data in parallel.
Preparation: Create list of unique files
Invoking the script
Generating holdings information
To generate the holding information, we simply generate the corresponding triples based on the file names in the data packaged by institution:

I note that you've hung the place of publication off the publisher, and wonder if this is an issue. Clearly the 'place of publication' is linked to the publisher in some way - they'll have to have some kind of operating address I guess - but it also feels like this is a direct property of the published item as well, and having a direct link may well be beneficial. In the latest modelling from the British Library, they use the proposed isbd:hasPlaceOfPublicationProductionDistribution property. I'm not particularly keen on this - partly because it doesn't exist yet, but mainly because I'm not sure it is sensible to limit this to a 'bibliographic' type property (many things can have a place of production). Any thoughts on this?
Pascal Christoph sagt:Hi Owen, sorry for the "late" answer... we think it makes sense to make this a d...
Hi Owen, sorry for the "late" answer... we think it makes sense to make this a direct property of the manifestation itself. Mainly because the place of the publisher may change but the place of publication can not change. Now, imagine we had URIs for publishers (which would be very nice indeed!)), the information of the place of publication can thus not be derived from the place of publisher.
Do you know a better property for this? http://iflastandards.info/ns/isbd/elements doesnot work . Also, do we really need a rdfs:label and thus a bnode?

Wow! Awesome, this movie teaches the kids how to treat their classmates and friends in school.
Perfect Movie, perfect score!
My parents insist to take my boy and girl to watch this movie as they say it worth all the money.
When the story is perfect, who cares. Got to bring your kids to watch this awesome movie.
Beautiful movie, It teaches us what LOVE is. Top pick!
I cryed this movie was inspiring!!!
Corn syrup movie. You go and you learn how be kindness. Acting was lousy.
You learn to love people and be kindness in a real life not from a movie.
If the father of the boy was another actor probably I would given 5 stars but he is acting skills are lousy.
This is a true story about the interpersonal dynamics among kids in middle school. All are afraid to be different. All seek safety first in numbers. This story shows what happens to many children in public school--handicapped and otherwise--but without the assurance of this movie's wonderfully happy ending.
Very good movie. Great also for the younger people and lesson that way people look at you comes from way others view you.
If you decided to give this great movie a very low score, you should ask yourself why we should not learn how to love people.

Adrian.iten brauchte ein neues Website Design und hat einen Wettbewerb auf 99designs gestartet.
Aus 21 Designs von 7 Designern wurde eine Gewinner gewählt.
shops.ch is a shop-in-shop platform in Switzerland. We don't sell own products but we work with big Swiss retailers who sell their products on our website. You can compare big parts of the business model with amazon.
There are a lot of different categories. From electronic products, to classical online products (Books, Games and Movies) to fashion, toys and jewelry.
So we get data from different sellers with different data structure and volume to different categories. This is why it's a challenge to design an article page which has a nice overview and which is dynamic on our needs.
shops.ch has over 1,7 Mio registered users in every class of age and in nearly every social segment. There are young digital natives and there are elder people who are not that online affine.
On shops we have two kind of navigations
- On the one hand there is a classical "top-down navigation" what means that the point of entry is the homepage of shops.ch. They come via search or navigation on the article page.
- On the other hand there is a "bottom-up navigation". This means the traffic comes directly on the article page (from ricardo.ch our linked website or from SEO traffic). The article page should be able to "catch" the users who has this point of entry and make them stay/browse on the site.
Dynamic design
As the data we get is quite different (long/small descriptions, lot/less of attributes, lot/less of pictures, etc.) it's important to get a "dynamic design".
As example:
If there is a long description or a short description the design is able to keep a nice view without any space holders or empty areas.
Color information
Green 1
Green 2
Blue 1
Blue 2
Elements which are on the article page:
Page header (header.png)
There should be no changes in this element (maybe small changes)
Category tree
At the moment there is no category tree on the article page. But as there are a lot of customers which has the article page as "page of entry" there is a need to embed the category tree (categories.png)
Seller information (seller.png):
- Seller's General conditions (link to a PDF)
- Payment options (prepayment, invoice, credit card)
- Shipping info (text field)
- Seller's logo
Article configuration / price box (configuration.png):
- Price
- Number of articles
- Add-To-Card
And possible information:
- Color / size dropdowns
- Special prices (19.90 instead 29.90)
- Additional articles (checkboxes) like 2-year-warranty, +4 GB RAM, etc.
Article information (elements.png)
- Title
- Images: 1-9 images/article. On the image there should be a "zoom-function"
- Description: Different from article to article. From short text elements to big html descriptions.
- Attributes: like brand, EAN codes, etc.
Cross-selling articles(in development)
We would like to embed cross-selling articles. Means linking on other products (f.e. from a "Playstation 3" to "PS3 Controller"). It includes a thumbnail, a title and the price.
- Social bookmarks (Facebook and twitter)
- Next product (jump on next product)
- Bread crump navigation (category)
Hompeage: http://www.shops.ch
Article page examples:
- Average filled article page: http://shops.ricardo.ch/kategorien/…in4631655/
- Big description (with HTML) and multiple pictures: http://shops.ricardo.ch/kategorien/…in4706573/
- Nearly no Description: http://shops.ricardo.ch/kategorien/…in5024892/

text: As a current Thunderbolt owner who is desperate for an upgrade, my only concern is the 16GB and the lack of a Micro SD. Unrooted, the usable space is somewhere north of 11GB after all is said and done. I can probably do some paring down of my apps that I don't use regularly and don't see myself downloading full HD movies, but photos and songs may become an issue a year or so from now. If this thing had 32GB or a Micro SD slot, I would have pre-ordered already. Anyone else hesitant?

California Department of Transportation
Headquarters Sacramento
Matt Rocco
(916) 657-5060
February 25, 2010
Sacramento - The California Transportation Commission (CTC) today allocated $185 million to 43 transportation projects statewide. This includes $30 million from Proposition 1B, the $19.9 billion transportation bond championed by Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger and approved by voters in 2006. More than $5.2 billion in Proposition 1B funding has been allocated to improve California's transportation system during the past three years. The remaining $155 million in allocations came from assorted transportation accounts funded by state and federal dollars.
"When the voters passed Proposition 1B, they wanted action and action is what they're getting. Proposition 1B is paying for vital transportation projects up and down California that will help relieve traffic congestion, improve air quality and repair our highways and bridges. At the same time, investing in our infrastructure is also strengthening our economy and creating jobs throughout the state when we need them most," said Governor Schwarzenegger.
Highlights of today's project allocations include:
Central Valley - $19.3 million in Proposition 1B funding for two projects that will widen State Route 99 in San Joaquin County.
Sacramento County - $6.8 million from Proposition 1B for a project that will add new auxiliary lanes and widen lanes on State Route 99 from Calvine Road to Mack Road.
San Joaquin County - $2.9 million in Proposition 1B funding for a project in Tracy that will construct auxiliary, acceleration, and deceleration lanes at various locations on Interstate 205.
Contra Costa County - $69 million to repave and repair 100 lane miles of Interstate 680 in San Ramon, Danville and Walnut Creek from the Alameda County line to Rudgear Road.
"These transportation projects will increase safety, improve goods movement and enhance ride quality for motorists who rely on the state's highway system," said Caltrans Director Randy Iwasaki.

MARSHALL, Texas (3/21/14) – The U.S. Navy finally awarded an East Texas Baptist University alumnus the medals he earned 70 years ago over the South Pacific during World War II. Joe Hogue, 91, of Overton, received his medals today during a special ceremony conducted by the Navy in Lampsato Chapel in the Ornelas Student Center at ETBU.
Hogue, a retired educator and member of the ETBU Athletics Hall of Fame, earned two medals, the Distinguished Flying Cross and Air Medal, for his service from November 15, 1943 to May 4, 1944.
Hogue was a member of the Navy Bombing Squadron VB 108. "We were out there longer than that, but this is the period of time the Navy figured the missions and what we accomplished until that point," said Hogue, dressed in Navy blues for the presentation. Three others members of VB 108 are still alive and recently have received their medals. Air log books kept by the pilot Hogue served with were instrumental in determining the medals to be awarded.
The ceremony, attended by a large detail from the Navy, family, friends, and the ETBU community, included the presentation of the Colors, the singing of the National Anthem, prayer, a history of Hogue's squadron during the war, the pinning of the medals, and presentation of the United States flag to the now decorated veteran.
"It is an honor of indescribable level and very humbling to have this opportunity to present these awards," said Captain Gil Miller, USN, Commanding Officer, Navel Air Station Joint Reserve Base. "Mr. Hogue, we cannot even begin to scratch the surface of the contributions that you, and frankly, your entire generation made to this country and history. Your generation made unimaginable sacrifices."
The first base where he served at during the war was at Naku Fetau in the Ellis Islands. "I was a tail gunner on what the Army called the B-24 Liberator, but in the Navy it was called a PB4Y-1 because they had some modifications on it different then the Army," Hogue recalled.
After the war, Hogue worked in Houston for a while before coming to then East Texas Baptist College and where he graduated in 1956.
Why did take so long for this day to happen?
"They did not tell me why it took so long," Hogue said. "A navy captain told me over the phone recently, 'Mr. Hogue the only thing we regret about this is the fact it took over 70 years to get the medals to you'."
Hogue was originally scheduled to receive his medals for service Dec. 7th at the Naval Air Station in Fort Worth. An ice storm postponed the ceremony. At the suggestion of ETBU Director of Alumni Development Paul Tapp, Hogue asked if the ceremony could be held on the campus of his alma mater.
"It was really an overwhelming experience to have all these servicemen and others to come and be a part of this presentation," Hogue said.
One ETBU group that attended in full force was the Lady Tiger softball team. Hogue is one of the team's biggest supporters.
Lady Tiger senior Lacy Liles of Elysian Fields shared afterwards, "To have somebody who has done so much for our country to come out and watch us play all the time, it is great honor for my teammates and myself to be here today to see Mr. Hogue receive this deserved recognition."
"I was just blown away with the University and the Navy in how they both responded to make such a big presentation out of this," said son Ken Haney. "It was real really heartwarming to the family, and the ceremony was beyond expectation."
"I appreciate the University allowing this to occur on campus," Hogue said. "I have realized that so many who were in my squadron that have died, who probably deserve this more than I do. I just regret that it has been so long coming that they were passed over. It really was an overwhelming experience for me to have all these service men and others to come and be a part of this presentation."
