WARNING: OJS Workflow: Copyediting Page supersedes this discussion.
Alternative proposals
Suggestion 1
Add a category header for the columns to make clear what their content are.
Suggestion 2
The "author to respond" is based on role identification of selected auditor and is a hyperlink to attract attention, but once a response has been made it simply identifies role, while the notepad [=] can be still be accessed by role for revisions. I'd like to only use the notepads with people to further distinguish them, and because notes can be added to files through the pencil, which can indicated unread messages by using a darker color.
UI Evaluation
We've made a call with both Rachael and Barbara to see how they were interacting with the current implementation of the copyediting process.
Barbara's report
Copyediting grid
- I explained the copyediting process to her missing a final step, which is the copyeditor uploading again a file (revising it) that he might changed based on authors iteration. So she not even tried to do that. (I forgot about this option when conducting the evaluation). If you want to see, I can tell you how to do that or you can try yourself and tell us what you did).
- our suggestions didn't improved that much the understanding of the grid, although, to her, suggestion 2 (more text) was clearer than 1 that was clearer than what we have now. She had some difficulty to understand what's the relationship between both levels of the grid (the files and the users) and also what each column was about. I explained a little the way it is in the help text and she managed to finish the process.
- actually we call the users that will signoff on the file as auditors, but not everywhere. If we keep it consistent, the relation between files and people will be clearer. So we can use the 'auditor' word into the Assign grid action, when there is no users assigned to a file we can also use 'No auditors', inside the assignment modal, etc.
- her first idea was to select a file inside the grid to assign a user to. That reminds me our selectable columns. We can try to use them also, so the files listbuilder inside the assignment modal will reflect what was selected inside the grid. That's not high priority because she was able to assign a user to a file even with this difficulty.
Send notes modal:
- change the place of the notes already sent to the top. It's a common place when you have something like a chat window (the field to write the message at the bottom and the notes at the top).
- missed the general notification that comes after sending a note, so she didn't know what happened. The notification can be placed in place, at the top of the modal.
- I can't think of why the modal keeps open after you submit a note. Suggested to close it.
- change the button text inside the modal to 'send' or 'send note'. Actually is 'OK'.
- she thought that was hard to find a button to close the modal. Maybe that can be improved with the changes proposed above.
Rachael's report
Assign auditor modal:
- show the copyediting file as required, the way we already do with fields. I think it's just a matter of using the * (required symbol) in red and next to the grid's title.
- thought it was difficult to understand what the option to not send the email to the auditor means. She was not sure if she clicked on that the task would be created. Maybe we can just add a text: "Clicking on submit will create an assignment notification for the author in the system. They will see this notification upon log in." And then this line next to check box: "Send an optional email notification to the author.".
File uploading:
- if user already selected the file type, then upload the file when it is inserted into the uploader widget. Right now user has to click on upload button after a file is already selected to be uploaded, even if there's nothing else to select.
- we won't allow multiple files uploading, so we can just correct the label that says "upload files" to "upload file".
Copyediting grid:
- thinks that the suggestion 2 is easier to understand than 1 that's easier than what we have now. But she also thinks that for experienced users the amount of text of 2 might be too much.
- the pencil icon inside the copyediting task context is confusing, even more because it is next to a file. She thought that it would open an editor to edit the current file, and she is right that the pencil icon is generally used as a symbol of editing action. I think that we had more feedback from other users that were confused by the pencil, so maybe it's time to try another one that's more related to actions than just editing.
- also had no idea how she could revise a file, after considering the auditors feedback. I think that we need a link action that says "revise file", although I don't know yet where to add this (if on grid level or row level or even inside the cell that contains the filename).
- the signoff word used as a help to the button inside the considered column is also confusing, because signoff might means agreement, which is not the case for every considered action that a copy editor might take.
- thinks that the send to production decision button is not in a good place. When she tried to use it she was afraid that she was sending all the visible files (draft and copyediting) to the production stage, because the button is at the top of the page. If we don't want to move the decision buttons to the bottom of the page, maybe we can use a hover text help to make more explicit that the button will only open a modal to select the files and record the decision.
General considerations
Rachael had the same problems that Barbara: understanding the assign user autocomplete field, the copyediting files listbuilder inside the assing user modal, the response notes modal (closing button, message position, etc). She had less problems finding the auditor response, but she said that she managed to find it just because she thought it was the only different place, not because of the notes icon.

WASHINGTON, D.C. – In response to newly announced federal "guidelines" for school discipline, U.S. Representative Martha Roby (R-AL) today questioned the wisdom and appropriateness of the federal government once again aggressively inserting itself into education policy matters best handled by states and local districts.
According to a report by The Washington Post, the administration is proposing "$50 million in grants to more than 1,000 schools to train teachers and staff in research-based strategies aimed at improving student behavior and school climate." Rep. Roby, who has championed legislation to prohibit the use of federal funding grants and law waivers to shape state education policy, warned that these new guidelines may represent further attempts by the Obama Administration to coerce state and local school districts into adopting their preferred policies.
"Here we go again," Rep. Roby said. "Has the Department of Education learned nothing from messes created by 'No Child Left Behind' and 'Race to the Top?' The federal government should not be using grants and special treatment to coerce states and local districts to comply with what the Obama Administration thinks is best. After all, 'guidelines' have a way of quickly becoming entrenched policies.
"Parents, teachers, and administrators in Alabama care deeply about ensuring a safe learning environment for students, and I know they welcome a conversation about improving discipline methods. But using federal tax dollars to try to force one-size-fits-all federal policies into schools is simply inappropriate.
A stated goal of the new "guidelines" is to reduce student suspensions for certain offenses, including "disruption" and "disrespect." Rep. Roby said reducing student suspensions was a worthy goal, but it shouldn't come at the expense of well-behaved students whose learning could be negatively affected in an undisciplined classroom.
"All students need uninterrupted quality instruction. I would hate to see well-behaved students punished by policies that allow bad behavior to go unpunished. A safe, well-behaved classroom is one in which the teacher is empowered to keep order and enforce discipline. I am wary of any policy that might undermine that critical role."
Rep. Roby's bill, the Defending State Authority Over Education Act of 2013, would prohibit the Secretary of Education from attempting to influence, incentivize, or coerce a state into adopting certain education policies or standards. The bill's text was included in the Student Success Act, which passed the House this past July.

Disability-Fraud Probe Leads to Arrests in Puerto Rico
Social Security Benefits May Have Been Improperly Obtained
Federal agents on Wednesday arrested 75 people in Puerto Rico as part of a bust of alleged Social Security Disability Insurance fraud, one of the largest sweeps since the program was created in the 1950s and the first major one since its rapid expansion during the financial crisis.
As part of the case, the U.S. government said it planned to review and possibly terminate benefits received by about 6,600 people. Investigators said more arrests are imminent....

Tressel tours Akron campus, weeks before new job
AKRON, Ohio (AP) -- Former Ohio State football coach Jim Tressel is preparing for his new administrative job at Akron by getting reacquainted with a campus that has changed significantly since he earned his master's degree there 35 years ago.
Tressel was forced to resign amid a cash-for-tattoos scandal at Ohio State that toppled the football powerhouse. In May, he starts work as the University of Akron's new vice president of strategic engagement, a position created just for him.
The Akron Beacon Journal reports several student orientation leaders joined Tressel this week for a tour of the campus, where more than $600 million in renovations have been done in the past decade.
In true Tressel fashion, he wore a vest and tie, now with the University of Akron insignia.

Consider Your WorldMay 04, 2003
I'm pleased to report that California is still much as I left it back in February, but somewhat chagrined to report that airport security is still as ridiculously paranoid as ever.
At 30,000 feet, I had to marvel that travelling down the United States' west coast took all of a couple of hours. When you consider that flight was out of the reach of the average working man even up to 70 years ago, and that same trip could have taken days by car (or weeks by horse), the luxuries we consider almost pedestrian today take on a new light.
In the same respect, it's even more incredible to look out the window of a 737 and gaze from horizon to horizon, with the odd cloud interjecting the repetitively featureless landscape and ocean, and consider you are seeing the smallest fraction of a percentage of this planet's surface. And when you add up a whole lot of these fractions you're starting to talk about some real distances.
And then without losing perspective of any of that, it's phenomenal to think that people from that far away are able to bridge that distance and view your work, read your thoughts and access any information you wish to provide them with only the slightest millisecond of delay.
I'm a half a world away from you in the U.K., you in Estonia, you in the Netherlands, and you in any one of the growing list of countries I get visitors from. But the electronic separation between us is razor thin, and you could just as well be in my backyard.
It's been expounded upon time and again, no doubt, the virtue of a worldwide network. Probably better than anything I could write, too. But until you actually go out there and consider with live visual examples what exactly that means, it's all too easy to take for granted the absolute accessibility the internet offers.
Reader Comments
I am continually disappointed by the lack of inspiration my fellow design students seem to have, not only about their chosen field, but also about life in general. I'm happy to see you write something like this because I know that there are still inspired people out there, and that in turn inspires me… well, more so than I already was before. Even the title, "Consider Your World" is particularly powerful to me. It brings to mind other words… Consciousness. Awareness. Learning. Understanding?
Prophetic, man. Good stuff. Thank you.
I totally agree, but it's easy to place the "magic" on the web, when the telephone is as guilty of grandeur as the web. more people have access to tel than the web… no visuals, but still, it's that milisecond delay all around the world.

Animated Times Square hotspotputs viewers in front seat
Hyundai has presented its new season billboard content for New York's Times Square, one of the world's busiest commercial districts.
Dubbed the Live Image Show, Hyundai connected cameras to its main outdoor billboard at Two Times Square, allowing people to capture and project live images of themselves on to the billboard.
The billboard then displays an image of the subjects in Hyundai vehicles travelling through an animated visual version of New York.
The cameras perched atop the TKTS ticket booth (the famous Red Stairs) in Times Square, unlike previous wide-angle shots which captured random people, the Hyundai cameras zoom up close on a select handful of people.
"Times Square is one of the world's most famous tourist spots, where people, including our customers, travel from afar to create unforgettable moments," says Won-Hong Cho, chief marketing officer at Hyundai in Seoul.
"We wanted to create a special moment for our customers at this special venue - a brilliant moment."
The Live Image Show is Hyundai's second project using its spectacular billboard. Hyundai launched the interactive billboard in New York last year with Hyundai Race, allowing people to connect their smartphones to Hyundai's billboard and play a racing game live.
Hyundai will continue to create more content for its interactive billboard, including personalised short films.
New York's Times Square is a global landmark and considered to be one of the world's busiest commercial hubs.
About 1.5 million people are estimated to pass by on a daily basis and 550 million visit each year. The Two Times Square building, where Hyundai secured advertising space in October 2009, is one of the most coveted advertising spots in the world.

WASHINGTON -- Reports of sexual assaults in the military increased by an unprecedented 46 percent during the last fiscal year, the Pentagon said Thursday.
It wasn't possible to know whether the spike represented an increase in assaults, an increase in the percentage of people reporting them, or both. Defense Department officials portrayed the sharp increase as a sign that people are more confident about coming forward now that improvements are being made to the military's system for handling assaults.
There were 3,553 sexual assault complaints from October 2012 through June, compared to 2,434 reports during the same period the previous year, according to statistics presented Thursday at the start of a two-day public meeting of an independent panel looking into the issue
The report to the so-called Response Systems Panel said an increase in reports was registered across all service branches - Army, Navy, Air Force and Marines. And it noted that, while statistics for the full fiscal year are not yet available, there were more reports of sexual assault in the first three quarters of fiscal year 2013 than the 3,374 reported during the entire 2012 budget year.
"A change in reports of sexual assault may reflect a change in victim confidence in Department of Defense response systems," said a 14-page slide presentation prepared for the panel.
The department in recent years has started a number of programs aimed at boosting the confidence of victims, including holding awareness training across the forces and adding legal help and more social services for those reporting assaults.
Despite official data reported annually on sexual assaults, the Pentagon acknowledges that the actual number of assaults could be several times higher and that many assaults go uncounted because of reluctance in the military, as in the civilian sector, to report such crimes.
The new data and Thursday's public meeting comes just weeks before the Senate is expected to take up a proposal to change how the military justice system deals with sexual assaults. The proposed legislation would remove commanders from the process of deciding whether serious crimes, including sexual misconduct cases, go to trial, and it would give that authority to seasoned trial lawyers who have prosecutorial experience and hold the rank of colonel or higher.
The chief advocate of the change, Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand, D-N.Y., is expected to push to attach her measure as an amendment to the annual defense policy bill that the Senate is expected to consider the week of Nov. 18.
On Wednesday, Gillibrand was joined at an emotional news conference by a victim of assault, retired military members, victims' advocates and a bipartisan group of senators who back her legislation.
Forty-six senators support the proposal, including 38 Democrats and eight Republicans.
But her idea is opposed by the Pentagon and the chairman of the Armed Services Committee, Sen. Carl Levin, D-Mich., as well as by fellow female Sen. Claire McCaskill, D-Mo.
Levin agrees with the Joint Chiefs of Staff that commanders should remain involved in deciding whether to prosecute sexual assault cases. Military leaders have argued that removing the decision from their purview would undercut the ability of officers to maintain good order and discipline in their units.
Earlier this year, the Armed Services Committee backed a bill designed to reform the military system by requiring a review of commander decisions not to prosecute sexual assault cases. The proposal also would have made it a crime to retaliate against victims who report a sexual assault and also called on the Pentagon to relieve commanders who failed to create a climate receptive for victims.
McCaskill, a member of the committee, said the new data reported by the Pentagon Thursday shows that a system that includes a role for commanders and holds them accountable with reforms can work for victims.
"These numbers, while a comfort to no one, represent progress-and hopefully show that with new protections in place, and historic reforms on the way, victims will have the confidence to come forward, without us removing all accountability from commanders," McCaskill said in a statement. "We know that the majority of military sexual assault survivors choose not to report their assaults-but this data suggests that the number of brave men and women choosing to pursue justice is increasing."

BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) — A North Dakota news anchor whose profanity-laced television debut got him fired after one broadcast is already getting job offers.
A.J. Clemente's first stint as an anchor at KFYR-TV in Bismarck on Sunday night was also his last after he uttered two obscenities just as cameras began to roll. Clemente was fired Monday.
By Wednesday, he was making appearances on national talk shows as a bit of a celebrity. On "Live with Kelly and Michael," hosts Kelly Ripa and Michael Strahan offered Clemente a job interviewing celebrities on the red carpet at the premiere of Pierce Brosnan's "Love Is All You Need." A wide-eyed Clemente agreed.
Later, he tweeted photos from the set of "The Late Show" with David Letterman, where he was to appear Wednesday night.

Henry Scougal
Scottish Puritan
Scougal produced a number of works in his brief life while a pastor and professor of divinity at King's College, Aberdeen. His greatest production is by consensus, The Life Of God In The Soul Of Man, which was originally written to a friend to explain Christianity and give spiritual counsel. This short treatise displays unusual perception and maturity for one so young. In fact, this work was almost universally well-spoken of by the leaders of the Great Awakening, including George Whitefield, who said he never really understood what true religion was till he had digested Scougal's treatise.
In addition to his literary productions, Henry Scougal was also noted for his piety and his clear grasp of scripture, aided in turn by his proficiency in Latin, Hebrew, Greek, and some of the cognate oriental languages. Taken out of the world at the young age of twenty-eight by tuberculosis, perhaps the words preached at his funeral service most aptly characterize the man, for there it was declared of Henry Scougal that - "he truly lived much in a few years and died an old man in eight and twenty years."
Works by Henry Scougal
Life of God in the Soul of Man was written by seventeenth century, Scottish minister Henry Scougal. It is a long letter, written to a friend who had lost the faith. Consequently, Life of God in the Soul of Man is supportive, and its tone is one of friendship and love, betraying a true passion in Scougal's work. Being a letter, The Life of God in the Soul of Man is somewhat short. It is divided into three parts. In the first part, Scougal provides an immensely instructive investigation of the true nature of religion. He addresses several poor conceptions of God and religion before turning to true religion--the "life of God in the son of man." In the second part, he explains the benefits of true religion. He focuses on the "excellence of divine love." The love of God, he emphasizes, is a great love, worth having! Nevertheless, in the third part, Scougal recognizes the difficulties in following God. He thus encourages the dependence upon divine assistance, and the contemplation of scripture in developing a Godly life. Although the writing is somewhat dated, Life of God in the Soul of Man is a tour de force of spiritual wisdom, which has served countless spiritual wayfarers.

We recently told you that Verizon dropped their price of the Lumia 928 from $99 on contract to just $49—a very competitive price (especially when compared to the $99 BlackBerry Z10, which itself was reduced from $199).
But for those of you still on the fence, you may want to check out Amazon.com, as they have the Lumia 928 for $0.99 on a 2-year contract (Individual or Family) or for $499 without a contract. Since the phone has an unlocked GSM slot for Verizon's LTE network, you can even use this on other carriers, were you to buy it out right (though you'd be missing some bands on some networks).
Overall not a bad deal for a surprisingly neat little phone. No word on sales stats for this device and whether Verizon (and Nokia) are having any luck selling it to the public with their aggressive advertising.
Speaking of, we'll have the winner announced sometime tomorrow for our Lumia 928 contest! We didn't forget but we did have //Build/ keep us busy all week.

AP source: Browns poised to hire Mike Pettine
CLEVELAND (AP) The Browns are poised to make Buffalo defensive coordinator Mike Pettine their new coach, a person familiar with Cleveland's plans said.
Pettine was expected to visit the club for a third interview Thursday, said the person who spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity because the team is not commenting during its search.
Unless there are unanticipated hang-ups, Pettine will become Cleveland's seventh full-time coach since 1999.
ESPN, citing multiple league sources, said the team is expected to offer Pettine the job.
The Browns have been looking for a coach since firing Rob Chudzinski on Dec. 29. Team officials flew to Mobile, Ala., this week to interview the 47-year-old Pettine, who spent one season with the Bills after four as defensive coordinator of the New York Jets.
Pettine is one of at least 10 known candidates to interview with the Browns, who dismissed Chudzinski hours after the season finale in Pittsburgh. The club had been expected to have a second interview with Seattle defensive coordinator Dan Quinn, who is preparing for the Super Bowl. But things have progressed to the point that the team is focused solely on Pettine.

Q: Will my heron decoy still be useful since it's getting cold out?
Mary – Berkeley Heights, NJ
A: To prepare for fall's and winter's colder temperatures, you've pulled out your decorative fountain, positioned your deep water aerators, added your cold-temperature beneficial bacteria and performed all the other pre-season maintenance chores, but what about that heron decoy? Does he need to be put up for the season?
The short answer: no.
Realistic heron decoys, such as Pond Logic® Blue Heron Decoy, are used to dissuade birds from landing in your pond. Heron are territorial by nature, and when they fly by and see that one of their feathered cousins (fake or real) has already claimed the area, they'll keep going until they find their own pond to fish.
Heron don't hibernate, and so seasonal climate changes will trigger these colorful, statuesque birds to fly to warmer environments for several months of the year—which is probably why you're asking about removing the decoy – but it's still a good idea to keep that decoy in place.
Why? The foods that carnivorous herons love to eat, including fish, frogs, salamanders, lizards, snake and grasshoppers, disappear or become scarce, particularly in areas that freeze or reach chilly temperatures. As a result, these guys must find other ways to scare up some grub. They fly to a new territory (usually south) for a few months where the eating is good and the weather is warm.
In North America, herons' range spans the entire United States and the southern regions of Canada, so chances are pretty good that you'll encounter migrating herons passing over your lake or pond—and looking for some tasty sushi to spear. With your lifelike Pond Logic® Blue Heron Decoy in place, you'll encourage them to move on and not stop to stock up on their trip south.
Pond Talk: How do you keep your blue heron decoy looking cleaned-up and realistic all year long?

We gardeners might know some plants. Some gardeners know about lots of plants and can impress you with not only names but details about hundreds of species and gardening options. But all of us do come to rely on the plant tag at a garden center for information. Most of us check the tag before we buy. Sometimes we wonder how reliable this information is. We can probably believe most of it.
One very valuable piece of information you should find on the tag is which growing zones will make your plant happy. If the plant is hardy in your zone, then you have no worries unless we have extreme heat or cold. Most tags will show the lowest temperature that your plant can take. You can "buy" a few extra degrees in the coldest weather if you want to be vigilant and protect a plant that's borderline with a cover on those extra frigid evenings. But if you miss just one of those freezing nights with, for example, a tropical heat loving plant, you will find a dead and mushy mess after a freeze. Most of us don't have the pleasure of having a greenhouse, so watch that tag information carefully. It seems that some of the big box stores put many of their tropical and heat loving plants on sale just before the weather is to turn cold for the unsuspecting novice gardener.
Another very important piece of information on the tag is how large and wide the plant will grow. We can be unpleasantly surprised by a tree that dwarfs our entire tiny yard or the bush that grows so large that it hides the beautiful flowers in the planting bed behind it. Most plants will grow to the size stated on the tag, but that height is determined with flowers grown in the best of soils with optimum watering. "Vigorous" or "spreading" may be what you want, but maybe not. We have all seen the sweet potato vine that starts at 3 inches and grows to 6 feet in a month or so. Crowding, poor soil, inadequate water or inadequate sun are conditions that will make your plant probably not reach its potential stated on the tag.
If the tag says full sun, part shade or shade, then you can usually do all right with a little fudging. Most full-sun plants do just fine with a little bit of shade, for example. Plants that ask for full sun might actually do better with a little shade from our scorching afternoon temperatures. Plant tags are a valuable resource for all gardeners. Occasionally even a great nursery puts out so many plants that they don't tag them all. Don't feel uncomfortable asking the employees to make you a small hand-marked tag to take with your plant. You don't want to wonder about the name of a super successful plant when it comes time to buy next year.

NEW YORK — Until last year, Café Grumpy in Greenpoint, Brooklyn, was mostly known as a destination for the serious coffee drinker, the type of place where each modestly sized cup is individually brewed and goes for $4 a pop.
Now, thanks to "Girls," the polarizing HBO series in which Lena Dunham stars as Hannah Horvath, a self-involved writer and reluctant Café Grumpy barista, and Alex Karpovsky as Ray, her angsty, thirtysomething boss, the shop has achieved a measure of fame that extends well beyond New York's coffee connoisseurs.
Like Tom's Restaurant, the Upper West Side diner whose exterior stood in for Monk's Cafe on "Seinfeld," or Magnolia Bakery, where Carrie and Miranda feasted on cupcakes on "Sex and the City," Café Grumpy has turned into a pilgrimage site for those who identify with the show's confused characters.
The coffee shop took on a more prominent role in recently concluded Season 2, particularly in an episode where Hannah skips out on a shift for a tryst with a handsome, older patron played by Patrick Wilson.
But unlike "Sex and the City" enthusiasts, who can tour that show's most celebrated locations via bus, "Girls" fans have to schlep out to the industrial hinterlands of Brooklyn to pose for Instagram self-portraits in front of the distinctive Grumpy logo (a crabby-looking coffee bean).
Meanwhile, the cafe's location down the block from Broadway Stages, the studio that houses shows such as "The Good Wife" and "Smash," has made it a favorite watering hole for New York's production community and a go-to location for the increasing number of series that film in the neighborhood, including the popular CBS crime drama "Blue Bloods."
On a recent afternoon, Lizinke Kruger, an 18-year-old tourist and "Girls" fan from Cape Town, South Africa, had braved the miserable, rainy weather and the arduous trip to Greenpoint via the much-maligned G train, all to catch a glimpse of the fictional Hannah's workplace.
"It's an epic show. There's a sense of reality in it. It's relatable in a lot of ways," Kruger said.
When owner Caroline Bell first opened Café Grumpy in 2005, she had no inkling it would become a pop-culture landmark. Her goal was simply "to create a place where people could get a good quality cup of coffee."
Business was slow at first — there isn't much foot traffic on this quiet side street, a solid 10-minute walk from the subway — but Broadway Stage provided a steady stream of caffeine-dependent customers over the years.
Bell opened a second Café Grumpy in Chelsea in 2006, and it quickly earned a following among Manhattan coffee snobs for its constantly rotating menu of single-origin brews.
Now there are four locations in the city.
The original Greenpoint cafe has grown in tandem with the rapidly gentrifying neighborhood, where production has surged in recent years.
With its unusual mix of "old" and "new" Brooklyn, plus direct views of the midtown skyline, the area is like catnip for location managers.
"Just the dichotomy of stuff you can do is really exciting," says Collin Smith, location manager for "Blue Bloods" and a frequent Café Grumpy patron. (The coffee shop has been used at least three times on the series.)
In the last three months of 2012 alone, some 33 television projects were filmed in Community Board 1, an area that includes Greenpoint and Williamsburg.
That's nearly double the total from the same period in 2011.
"For 'Girls,' it began as just another rental, which are part of doing business in this neighborhood," Bell says. "But the fact it became another character onthe show was a cool thing."
Café Grumpy's real-life staffers are unfazed by their proximity to fame and noticeably more ambitious than their on-screen counterparts.
Kat Palen, a 27-year-old barista, recently relocated to New York from Chicago to pursue a career in coffee.
She settled on Café Grumpy because of its Kenya pour-over, not because of "Girls" — in fact, she's never seen a single episode of the show.
"I don't have HBO. I have, like, rabbit ears and the Internet," she says. Her dad, though, is a big fan. "He just says that Lena Dunham — is that the name? She's really smart. She reminds him of me."
Similarly, manager Jesse Kohn, 24, an aspiring fiction writer, has to rely on his parents for "Girls" updates.
"They're really cool, they watch more TV than I do," he says, wearily stacking cups at the tail end of a shift that began at 6:15 a.m.
Whatever the case may be, an employee as flighty and unreliable as Hannah would not last long at the real Café Grumpy.
"We had a guy bring in a Nabokov book and put it on top of the espresso machine and just stand there reading his book, which I thought was hysterical," Bell recalls. "Yeah, that doesn't work. You actually have to work hard."

GRAND JUNCTION, Colo. — Now, it's personal.
President Barack Obama invoked his own anguish over the death of a loved one as he challenged the debunked notion that Democratic efforts to overhaul the nation's health care would include "death panels."
"I just lost my grandmother last year. I know what it's like to watch somebody you love, who's aging, deteriorate and have to struggle with that," an impassioned Obama told a crowd as he spoke of Madelyn Payne Dunham. He took issue with "the notion that somehow I ran for public office or members of Congress are in this so they can go around pulling the plug on grandma."
"When you start making arguments like that, that's simply dishonest — especially when I hear the arguments coming from members of Congress in the other party who, turns out, sponsored similar provisions," Obama said.
In a debate in which he often sounds professor-like, Obama spoke with a rare bit of emotion that seemed to counter that of vocal health care opponents as he referenced the beloved grandmother who helped raise him and who he called "Toot." She died of cancer at age 86 on Nov. 2, two days before he won election to become the nation's first African-American president.
He talked about her death while answering a question about misinformation being spread about Democratic health care efforts during a town hall-style gathering in a high school gymnasium.
"Health care is really hard. This is not easy. I'm a reasonably dedicated student to this issue. I've got a lot of really smart people around me who've been working on this for months now," he said. "There is no perfect painless silver bullet out there that solves every problem, gives everybody health care for free. There isn't. I wish there was."
Obama addresses debunked claims
But he said that because there's no perfect solution to solving health care, opponents "start saying things like we want to set up death panels to pull the plug on grandma."
Video: Student challenges Obama to debate The president is seeking to put to rest claims that the health care overhaul he seeks would set up "death panels" to rule on life-sustaining care for ailing seniors. It would not, and Obama has stressed that point repeatedly over the past week.
Obama reiterated his contention that the Democratic health care legislation would not create "death panels" to deny care to frail seniors. Obama has explained that the provision that has caused the uproar would only authorize Medicare to pay doctors for counseling patients about end-of-life care, living wills, hospice care and other issues, if the patient wants it.
Conservatives have called end-of-life counseling in government health care programs like Medicare a step toward euthanasia and former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin has likened the idea to a bureaucratic "death panel" that would decide whether sick people get to live. Those claims have been widely discredited but the issue remains a political weapon in the increasingly bitter health care debate.
Other political news of note
Animated Boehner: 'There's nothing complex about the Keystone Pipeline!'
House Speaker John Boehner became animated Tuesday over the proposed Keystone Pipeline, castigating the Obama administration for not having approved the project yet.
- Budget deficits shrinking but set to grow after 2015
- Senate readies another volley on unemployment aid
- Obama faces Syria standstill
- Fluke files to run in California
- Animated Boehner: 'There's nothing complex about the Keystone Pipeline!'
"I know there's plenty of real concern and skepticism out there," Obama said in his weekly radio and Internet address. "I know that in a time of economic upheaval, the idea of change can be unsettling, and I know that there are folks who believe that government should have no role at all in solving our problems."
Video: Gregory: Debate has gotten away from Obama Carefully trying not to alienate opponents even while taking them on, he cited "legitimate differences worthy of the real discussion that America deserves." But as Democratic allies face taunts and insults at town hall style gatherings, Obama asked his audience to "lower our voices, listen to one another and talk about differences that really exist."
In the Republicans' address, Utah Sen. Orrin Hatch pressed for a bipartisan solution.
"Ensuring access to affordable and quality health care for every American is not a Republican or Democrat issue — it is an American issue," he said.
He said he also encourages a respectful debate, but "there is nothing un-American about disagreements. In fact, our great nation was founded on speaking our minds."
Obama seeks legislation that would provide coverage for millions of uninsured people while controlling costs. Critics say proposals in Congress would spend too much and give government too big a role.
Conservative activists and Obama opponents have stepped up their attacks in recent weeks — and may be outmaneuvering a White House known for its organizational abilities.
In campaign mode, Obama is hosting question-and-answer sessions that proved valuable during the presidential race. The Democratic National Committee and Obama's allies are spending millions on advertising campaigns to influence public opinion, much like they did last year. Associates are going out to make the case. The White House is using Internet tools honed during his groundbreaking bid to rally supporters.
Obama is trying to energize his estimated 13 million grass-roots supporters through his campaign apparatus, called Organizing for America. But there are indications that those who turned out in to help elect Obama aren't doing the same to get a policy passed — evidence of the difficulty in the transition from campaigning to governing.
Advisers encourage grass-roots activists
In Pittsburgh, Obama adviser Valerie Jarrett told liberal bloggers Saturday at a conference that the president can't accomplish his goal without them. "I cannot say to you how strongly we depend upon you and your outreach and your network to energize people who are on the ground, not just for health care, but for all the tough issues that are lying ahead," she said.
Earlier in the week, White House senior adviser David Axelrod asked supporters to forward a chain e-mail to counter criticism circulating online. The White House also began a "Reality Check" Web site "to help Americans clear up health care lies and misinformation."
Those efforts were reminiscent of the Obama team's attempts during the 2008 campaign to debunk Internet rumors about his faith and upbringing.
The DNC has created a Web video — "What You Won't See on National Cable News" — to highlight civil town hall meetings, and Obama also plans to speak to backers by telephone during a health care event Wednesday.
Over the past week, he has fielded questions from audiences in New Hampshire, and Montana, as well as in Grand Junction. He has faced polite crowds, a stark contrast to the taunts and jeers that Democratic lawmakers have endured at similar sessions during their August break.
Much like in the campaign, Obama is using people's stories to illustrate his points, railing against interest groups and asking supporters to "rise to this moment."
In Grand Junction, he sounded much like a candidate again as he adapted a campaign theme.
He likened the health care effort to policy fights that led to Social Security and Medicare system. "These struggles have always boiled down to a contest between hope and fear," Obama said — a talking point of his candidacy. "So if you want a different future, if you want a brighter future. I need your help."

Mikhail A. Lebedev (Михаил Альбертович Лебедев) is a Russian-born (1963) Neuroscientist known for his neurophysiological studies of cerebral cortex. Lebedev underwent undergraduate education at Moscow Institute of Physics and Technology, where he received a M.Sci degree in Physics of Living Systems in 1986. His diploma advisor was Victor Gurfinkel. Lebedev proceeded to work at Gurfinkel's laboratory (1986-1991) where he conducted studies in the field of human motor control. In 1991 he went to the USA to learn neurophysiological techniques of single-unit recordings from the brain of awake, behaving animals - the techniques pioneered by Edward Evarts. In pursue of this goal, Lebedev joined the laboratory of Randall Nelson at the University of Tennessee, Memphis, and, after conducting a series of studies of the primary somatosensory cortex, received a PhD degree in Neurobiology in 1995. He continued to study neurophysiology of somatosensory cortex with Mathew Diamond at SISSA, Italy (1995-1997). In 1997-2002 Lebedev investgated neuronal mechanisms of premotor and prefrontal cortex with Steven Wise at NIMH, Bethesda, Maryland. He currently works with Miguel Nicolelis at Duke University, where he applies multielectrode recording techniques to a range of neurophysiological problems, including brain computer interfaces.
Lebedev's research of human motor control conducted in Russia includes studies of postural automatisms, Kohnstamm's phenomenon, neck reflexes, ischemic suppression of muscle fibers and effects of vibratory stimulation on posture and electromyographic activity (tonic vibration reflex). His neurophysiological research addresses cortical plasticity, neural oscillations, neural correlates of cognition and brain-computer interfaces. In the study of neuronal encoding of attention and memory in prefrontal cortex (Attention versus memory in prefrontal cortex), Lebedev and his colleagues challenged the working memory theory of prefrontal cortex. Lebedev and colleagues recently demonstrated cortical plasticity during operation of brain-machine interfaces.

So you're saying that we should believe Easter is nonfiction, even if Easter actually is fictional? Because then you'll have the "optimal neural pattern?"They'res either eternal individuated life for human's, or they're is not.
If they're is not, or if they're is, dictate's the optimal neural pattern in the humans physical human brain.
The above is either true or not. If it is not true, it mean's that, regardless of whether or not they're is eternal individuated life for human's, they're is only 1 ideal state of the human brain, in term's of how it is organized to think. I.O.W., the ideal human mind is independent of whether or not human's ultimately live forever, in whatever form it happen's to take.(For my part, full disclosure, I believe that we live forever in brand new, shiny body's that have all the wonder's of our current corruptible body's, plus super power's like flying and traveling as does the wind. We will --if we enter the eternal kingdom of God/heaven --be able to travel back and forth between the new heaven and the new earth, which may be a lot closer to each other than they are today (I suspect that heaven is >13.6-13.7 billion lightyear's away), or we may simply have the ability to physically span these inconceivably great distance's in a moment. I believe in the general resurrection of the dead, which will occur at the Second Coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, and those of us who still live when He come's will be changed instantly to our new body's, while the dead shall all rise with new body's. The terrible shame will be any of those who rise up from there grave's to brand new body's, but who will not enter the kingdom of our Lord and of our God. They will live forever in torment, none the least of which is the torment of rejecting the Gospel of our Lord whenever hearing it 1st . . . being that I believe all this, of course. )I believe that the optimal neural pattern for the human brain is the same, regardless of whether or not they're exist's eternal individuated life for human's. I believe that, if they're is a true or correct algorithm for transforming the human mind into its optimal physical state, that it must be the Christian faith. This is what it mean's to be a Christian, is what I'm saying, in saying this.
I believe that helping other's to achieve there optimal neural pattern is impossible apart from teaching the Christian faith. It isn't just that Jesus take's a hypothetical form in our brain's --Jesus exist's in negative or relief form in everybody's head. Believing in Him transform's and begin's to transform the brain.
That was dense and cumbersome. Please ask for any clarification and I'll try, try again!

Every week, FOOD52's Senior Editor Kristen Miglore is unearthing recipes that are nothing short of genius.
Today: A dressing that will push you to your limits, and make you beg for more.
- Kristen
If you're in any danger of becoming complacent with your everyday salad, that ends now. April Bloomfield gives us a dressing of unmatched gutsiness because, as she says, "I can't bear being bored."
The co-owner and chef behind New York's gastropub super-trifecta The Spotted Pig, The Breslin, and The John Dory releases her first cookbook A Girl and Her Pig next Tuesday, and with it, her philosophy on all sorts of things. Things like salad and raisin bran, both of which come into play here.This recipe (one of the first Bloomfield remembers coming up with as a young cook in London) is a fitting snapshot of Bloomfield herself, a chef known as much for her quiet modesty and mindfulness as her $17 hamburgers and mounded chicken liver toasts. She serves the dressing with a fried pig's ear salad.
At first glance, it's a shockingly brash dressing. She uses not just lemon juice, but whole lemon segments, and more mustard than could possibly seem like a good idea. There's half as much Dijon as there is olive oil -- which makes it at least twice as strong most proper French mustard vinaigrettes. There's so much, in fact, that you don't even need to go out of your way to emulsify the dressing to make it substantial and creamy -- the mustard just swirls in and thickens effortlessly.As you eat it, the punchiness almost leaves you breathless. By the end, you're all but drunk off the racy, surging flavors.
But at the same time, there are addictive little nips of caper and shallot to keep you going, and gentler undercurrents of lemon juice, salt, and sugar. How does she make it all make sense? Surprisingly, the answer is restraint.
It's a theme she returns to throughout the book. And it's perhaps the only way that a chef so famed for daringly rich foods could hold our attention and awe as long as she has, and keep us always coming back for more. We've forgotten many a slider and cupcake, but we'll never forget her.
She considers this salad an homage to Fergus Henderson, who has said of his own signature bone marrow dish, "There should be just enough capers that you end up searching for them, like the raisins in raisin bran." In their minds, every sugar-coated raisin is that much more thrilling, knowing that it could be the last, and leave you with a soggy, lonesome puddle of bran.
It's the same reason you must stop yourself from eating all the cookie dough, and why there's nothing but a path of regret after you've chased down all the best chunks from a pint of Ben & Jerry's.
It's the simple law of diminishing returns. Grown-ups know better than to pack a whole avocado in their salad, lest they compromise the pleasure of finding a single slice in the bottom of the bowl. "It's the difference between giving people what they think they want and giving them what will be truly amazing," Bloomfield explains in the book.
So her approach with this salad is manipulative, almost punishing. She pushes you just to your limits with all that mustard and stinging lemon, then brings you back from the brink with just enough juicy capers and shallots to keep you wanting.
And by serving it with a deep-fried pig's ear, she says "The dressing, with its intense pops of tartness from the lemon segments, makes you want to eat more pig's ear, and its salty cartilage and fat makes you crave more dressing." Of course, you don't have to go with pig ears -- any fatty meats, even cheeses, or avocado (but not too much) would do the trick.Any way you serve it, she's playing you like a drug dealer pushing speed with sleeping pills. Except here, there's no shame in just saying yes.
April Bloomfield's Lemon Caper DressingAdapted very slightly from A Girl and Her Pig (Ecco, 2012)Makes about 1 cup2 medium lemons3 tablespoons finely chopped shallots2 tablespoons Dijon mustard (choose one whose flavor you like on its own -- we used Maille)2 tablespoons drained capers, finely chopped1/2 teaspoon Maldon or another flaky sea salt1/2 teaspoon superfine sugar1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil

Get Crazy (1983)

Synopsis by Hal Erickson
Director Allan Arkush knew whereof he spoke in Get Crazy. A longtime employee of Fillmore East, a popular rock-concert locale of the 1960s and 1970s, Arkush brought a great deal of insider's savvy to this comedy about the concert circuit and its denizens. Malcolm McDowell stars as a Mick Jagger-type rocker who is one of several acts lined up for a big New Years' Eve show. If villains Ed Begley Jr., Bobby Sherman and Fabian have their way, however, the show will never get off the ground. The supporting cast is dotted with such cult-flick icons as Dick Miller, Jackie Joseph and Mary Woronov. The musical portion of the program is handled by the likes of Malcolm McDowell, Lou Reed (as a Bob Dylan type) and Bill Henderson (as a Muddy Waters takeoff). In case it hasn't been made clear already, the main "joke" of Get Crazy is the presence in the cast of actors as musicians and musicians as actors; it is to the film's credit that this one joke never wears out its welcome.
