Important Question's
Why Java is considered dynamic?It is designed to adapt to an evolving environment. Java programs can carry extensive amount of run-time information that can be used to verify and resolve accesses to objects on run-time.
What is Java Virtual Machine and how it is considered in context of Java's platform independent feature?When Java is compiled, it is not compiled into platform specific machine, rather into platform independent byte code. This byte code is distributed over the web and interpreted by virtual Machine (JVM) on whichever platform it is being run.
Is Java still free?The current version of Java - Java SE 8 - is free and available for redistribution for general purpose computing. Java SE continues to be available under the Oracle Binary Code License (BCL) free of charge. JRE use for embedded devices and other computing environments may require a license fee from Oracle. Read more about embedded use of Java SE or contact your local Oracle sales representative to obtain a license.
What do you mean by Object?Object is a runtime entity and it's state is stored in fields and behavior is shown via methods. Methods operate on an object's internal state and serve as the primary mechanism for object-to-object communication.
What is JAR file?JavaARchive files are a big glob of Java classes, images, audio, etc., compressed to make one simple, smaller file to ease Applet downloading. Normally when a browser encounters an applet, it goes and downloads all the files, images, audio, used by the Applet separately.This can lead to slower downloads.

Notre Dame Football was just a month into its season when a story about linebacker Manti Te'o emerged and followed him to the BCS National Championship Game.
Te'o played with a heavy heart after hearing that his girlfriend died of leukemia, shortly after the death of his grandmother.
His grandmother's death was real, but the girlfriend isn't.
Sports website Deadspin exposed the truth with a lengthy article on Wednesday.
It turns out that Te'o realized what was going on right after Christmas and told Notre Dame officials.
But the school kept quiet as the team prepared for the BCS game that took place weeks later.
"From the outset, we established a parameter that this was Manti's story to tell," said Athletic Director Jack Swarbrick. "We wanted to know it would be told. We wanted to know at the appropriate time when it would be told, but that it was his to tell."
Notre Dame responded by saying Te'o was the victim of an elaborate hoax."
"The single most trusting human being I've ever met will never be able to trust again in the same way in his life," said Swarbrick.
"To realize that I was the victim of what was apparently someone's sick joke and constant lies was, and is, painful and humiliating" said Te'o in a statement.
In September and October, Te'o told reporters that a 22-year-old Stanford University student named Lennay Kekua was his girlfriend.
He said that Kekua and his grandmother had died within hours of each other.
"I miss 'em, but I know that I'll see them again one day," Te'o told ESPN, after a victory over Michigan State.
Deadspin said it started its own investigation after it received an anonymous e-mail.
"There's no evidence of her existing in any way, other than, you know, after she had allegedly died. And we thought that was a little weird," said Deadspin's Timothy Burke.
Notre Dame says Te'o's relationship was only online and on the phone.
"Outside of a few Twitter and Instagram accounts, there's no online evidence that Lennay Kekua ever existed," Deadspin contends. "There was no Lennay Kekua."
But the love story was too much for the mass media to pass up.
The South Bend Tribune in Indiana reported that the couple met after a football game in Palo Alto, California, in 2009.
Te'o's father, Brian, was quoted saying, "They started out as just friends. Every once in a while, she would travel to Hawaii, and that happened to be the time Manti was home, so he would meet with her there. But within the last year, they became a couple."
Media reports indicate the parents never met Kekua.
But another football player said he did.
Former Arizona Cardinal Reagan Mauia told ESPN that he and Pittsburgh Steeler star Troy Polamalu met her in American Samoa.
"This was before her and Manti," Mauia told ESPN. "I don't think Manti was even in the picture, but she and I became good friends. We would talk off and on, just checking up on each other kind of thing. I am close to her family."

New Video Added!
In this video, Chris Sugai himself gives us a look at the highlights of the all new RIP 9 RDO features, options and how to order one for yourself! With the increase in carbon models from Niner, could a longer travel RDO bike (WFO RDO anyone?) be in the works?
We hung out with Chris Sugai at Interbike and he showed of their latest creation. It is the R.I.P. 9 RDO Carbon and it their latest marriage of their R.I.P 9 design married to their carbon technology which has been proven in the JET 9 RDO bike released last year. What it delivers is greater stiffness and durability in a lighter and more stunning package. 125 mm of rear suspension is ready for 120-140 mm of travel. They slackened up the front end and lowered the BB. And reports from the Niner headquarters is employees are fighting over these R.I.P. RDO bikes in the fleet of tester bikes in the office. Cable routing is internal in the downtube but it exits before the bottom bracket to avoid installation and maintenance complexity.
Chris was most proud of the main suspension pivot bearings. It has a huge axle that can be tensioned with a bottom bracket tool then it is locked on the other side to maintain perfect bearing preload. At Mtbr, we normally disconnect the rear shock now to check if the rear is free-moving and free of play. Just like a wheel, bearing tension is critical for removing play and for ensuring freedom of movement. A lot of rear ends are tight and they restrict the movement of rear suspension. It is a hidden crutch that can ruin the suspension action of a good design.
125MM of "Best Bike Ever" Coming in Spring!
Rally Blue RDO Carbon, Fox Float CTD Kashima, 142MM Maxle, ISCG 05, Carbon Links Rotating on Enduro Black Oxide Bearings
Forest Lurkers, Desert Rats and Mountain Goats – the RIP 9 RDO doesn't care where you ride so much as how you ride. Take the reins and this pony rallies all manner of terrain including, but not limited to: bumps, climbs, ladders, hips, kickers, logs, drops, lips, skinnies, boulders, lawns, gaps, wedges, ledges, tire traps, endless grunts, woodwork rollers, switchbacks, rocks and baby strollers.
- Carbon Full Suspension from the 29er-Only mountain bike company
- 125mm of patented CVA Suspension is efficient in every chainring
- Compatible wiht 120-140mm forks
- Tuned for CVA – Fox Float CTD shock with Kashima coat
- Removable ISCG 05 tabs and offset linkage design for chainguide compatibility
- Carbon suspension linkage and unique Niner alloy hardware
- 142mm x 12mm rear spacing
Trail Bike 29
"Quiver Killer" meets carbon. 2 years in development, Niner's highly anticipated and requested carbon trail bike finally makes an appearance. The R.I.P. 9 RDO incorporates global rider feedback as well as Niner's rigorous carbon design, engineering and testing standards. Our alloy R.I.P. 9 has over 30 glowing media reviews for ride quality and handling – the R.I.P. 9 RDO takes these characteristics and ups the ante with carbon frame, linkages, ISCG compatibility and additional travel.
CVA™ Suspension
The R.I.P. 9 RDO features Niner's patented CVA suspension (U.S. Patent No. 7,934,739) and delivers 125mm of fully active travel with superb compliance and damping via a tuned for CVA Fox Float CTD Factory Shock with Trail Adjust and Kashima Coat. For those seeking the technical advantages of 29" wheels combined with pedaling efficiency across all chainring combinations (not just the middle ring), CVA™ is the front-runner. The result? A faster, smoother ride up and down the trail.
Versatile Geometry
To progress as a rider you need predictability, balance and nimble handling and Niner is the company that first made fun trail bike 29ers a reality. Climbing or descending, the geometry of the R.I.P. 9 RDO is tuned to keep you in control and ready to conquer new terrain at every turn. The R.I.P. 9 RDO is intended for 120 to 140mm forks, allowing riders to further fine tune the ride.
C5 Warranty
Our robust R&D program – computer modeling, physical prototype testing (both in-house and at independent testing facilities), and hours of riding by skilled and abusive individuals make us confident that the R.I.P. 9 RDO will exceed your expectations. We maintain that our carbon fiber development rivals the best in the bike industry and to back it up we offer our C5 warranty (five year) and a standard-setting commitment to customer service.
Tapered Headtube
The increased surface area of a tapered headtube allows for a larger downtube, increasing strength and rigidity at this critical intersection. Tapered fork steerer tubes measurably reduce fork deflection, which means your Niner tracks straight and true. The full spectrum of riders from XC racers to All Mountain shredders benefit from these features which is why we incorporate the technology in all our new frames. The R.I.P. 9 RDO lets you take full advantage of increased steering precision as you negotiate your daily dose of singletrack.
Attention to Detail
When you are in the backcountry, the details are what take your ride into the sublime. The trim and sexy carbon links rotate on oversized Angular Contact Bearings for awesome lateral rigidity and immediate power transfer, dropper post routing and ISCG 05 chainguide compatibility mean you can build this bike to fit your ride style and an integrated replaceable skid plate lets you try that optional line with confidence. The R.I.P. 9 RDO features more tire clearance, full housing internal cable routing for a clean look and precision-machined alloy interfaces for the bottom bracket, direct-mount front derailleur and brake caliper post mounts.
R.I.P. 9 RDO frames and bikes will be shipping in March before the mountain trails melt. Complete bikes will be offered with limited edition top-end build kits.
R.I.P. 9 RDO Frame/Shock: $2,899.00
R.I.P. 9 RDO Frame/Shock & Matching Rally Blue RockShox Revelation RT3 – 130MM: $3,550.00

- SRAM recommended 2x front chainring configs: 26/39 or lower
- SHIMANO XT and SLX recommended 2x front chainring configs: 28/40 or lower

We choose not to compromise tire clearance or lateral rigidity to accomodate these non-standard configurations. Suggested alternatives are Shimano XT 2x and Race Face Next 2x cranksets.

NEW YORK - It's fall in the mall.
Officially, summer has weeks left on the calendar, but retailers have begun the transition from lightweight and lighthearted vacation clothes to the more dressed-up, sophisticated styles that come with fall fashion.
The tricky part, they say, is that while it's good to infuse the excitement of a new season into stores, shoppers can be so enthusiastic about their new purchases they want to be able to wear them right away. That can be a problem when traditional fall looks - think sweaters, long trousers and outerwear - might not be suited to the dog days of August.
The solution? Lightweight layers in a deeper, more autumnal color palette.
"The consumer in general is forward looking but wants instant gratification," says Barclay Resler, vice president and head of visual management for Esprit.
You can do that with a pretty chiffon blouse, he suggests, or a short-sleeve knit dress, maybe with some buckle detail at the waist.
Lisa Axelson, head designer of Ann Taylor, has already worn her sleeveless trench - with a silk blouse and cropped black pants - but it'll go with flannel trousers and long gloves later. It is "the perfect wear-now-and-layer-later piece," she says.
Fabric choices are important, says Banana Republic creative director Simon Kneen, a fan of tropical-weight wool. "It's designed for tropics. It's airy, and the weave is more open, but it will look refined. It has a hand touch that drier and cooler, but you can have it in a dress, trouser, skirt, jacket - and those are the foundations of your fall closet."
Lightweight chambray denim serves the same purpose for more casual pieces.
Navy is a favorite transitional color for Resler because it plays crisp and clean against white pants, but more luxurious with high-waisted trousers in gray, camel or brown. A ruffled, navy-and-white dot blouse in stores now has it all, he says, a cheerful vibe to finish out the summer, but ladylike enough to carry through the rest of the year.
Warm shades of orange, amber and green are trends at Kohl's for fall, but they're not dark colors, either, so they fit into a variety of weather landscapes, says David Hacker, vice president of trend and color.
Kneen says Banana Republic - and he imagines other retailers, too - has learned to work in the mindset of many mini-fashion seasons filled with versatile pieces instead of sweeping in with major changes twice a year.
As a children's retailer, The Children's Place switched to its back-to-school merchandise in the middle of July to capitalize on the shopping-spree days before kids go back to class. However, says Michael Giannelli, senior vice president of design, all he needs to do is walk outside to be reminded that "fall is really a summer delivery."
A tiered, sequined skirt that pairs just as well with a tank top and flip-flops as it will with a sweater, tights and chukka boots a few months from now - even into the holiday season - is blowing out of stores, Giannelli says, but the No. 1 selling footwear item right now is a slouchy suede boot that really looks more like a fall item.
"Those emotional, fashion-y pieces will sell out, so people don't wait to buy it. They're willing to wait to wear it if the item is so special."
Still, he adds, he's seen quite a few girls around wearing those boots with their shorts.
Trendy items don't have to be limited to a single season, and it's those more lasting looks that are on the floor at JCPenney right now. "We're sticking with bright color," says director of women's trend Cynthia Washburn-Nester, ticking off skinny jeans in saturated shades of red, yellow and green, and sleeveless tops with feminine details as top choices.
A chunky fisherman-style or shaker-knit sweater will evolve that look into full-on fall, she says, and, really even now, a lighter, open-weave sweater isn't a bad idea living in this very air-conditioned world.
"People aren't necessarily looking at 'fall' and 'spring' wardrobes. It's about evolving things into the next season. You give something you've loved and worn a new life by wearing it with something new," Washburn-Nester says.
Hacker of Kohl's sees the gauze or crochet-style ponchos that have a lot of real estate in stores as swimwear cover-ups for August, and then as the perfect introduction to outerwear in the early fall. You'll need a heavier knit eventually, he says, but ponchos - even two of them - are pieces you'll get a lot of use out of: They are a key item of the season.
"You want to update, not redo your wardrobe," Hacker says.
Also, he adds, don't underestimate the shorts you've been wearing for months. "Most people think of shorts as a summer thing, but, especially in Europe, and with the advances in legwear to add texture and color - you can even layer legwear with tights with socks on top - that this is something that can go into fall," he says.
"Based on the economic times, people are learning to adapt their clothes from season to season," he adds.
Looking ahead, some stores will have even more shorts, including tweed ones, heavier denim and sturdy earth-tone cargo styles.
"Probably no one is happy to see the end of summer come, but the fabrics of fall are so rich, and things can layer so well together, there is definitely something coming from customers that's a high interest in fall," Resler says.

hi all,
I'm a first year university student and I'm trying to find a good research paper topic for my educational psychology class.
I'm very interested in ESL and definitely planning on looking at something within this 'field,' but I don't know what topics there are that have enough research based sources. I was originally planning on working on something about the lexical approach to language teaching, but I've been snooping around the internet as well as my university library's database and I'm not convinced that there's been very much research done on this subject. Does anybody know of any approaches/methods etc. within ESL or SLA teaching that have had a significant amount of research done on them? I need to come up with a specific topic and have at least 10 reserach based sources.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Have you used Google Scholar? There is plenty published on just about everything in ESL.

You're working hard, and trying to balance family life with your professional goals. But can you really have it all and still be able to have some quality "me time"?
"A lot of women feel like they might be admitting failure if they shared how difficult it is to make time for [themselves]," says working mom and freelance producer Ellen Fiedelholtz. "It's all about juggling. There's no such thing as balance. I feel like the lady with the plates spinning in the air."
And while many working women try to keep the idea alive that doing everything can actually be done, not every expert agrees.
"This philosophy that you can have it all is garbage," says Caroline Myss, bestselling author of the book "Sacred Contracts: Awakening Your Divine Potential" (Three Rivers Press, $17). "There simply aren't enough hours in the day for anyone to do everything well. If you live with this belief system, someone has sold you a bill of goods."
Myss says many women in our society treat motherhood as another item on their "to do" list, rather than as a full-time job.
"You have values as an individual, but often they never adapted to your new values as you get married and have kids," she says. "You still think you can have both worlds simultaneously—but they do not exist. Some choices require more attention. . . . Children need to have their needs put first, so you have to limit your own needs because you've chosen their needs as a priority. You have to get your own ego in check."
Some experts counter that putting oneself first isn't selfish—but a much needed form of self care.
"You can have a
of it all," says Laurie Mintz, a psychologist and author of the book "A Tired Woman's Guide to Passionate Sex" (Adams Media, $14.95). "You can be a good mother and a good worker, but you can't be the top dog at work and see your kids all the time, so life is a series of tradeoffs. We are a driven, perfectionist, hard-on-ourselves society. Other cultures take much more down time than we do."
Mintz says she hears the "I can't possibly take time for me" excuse from her clients all the time, but insists if they shifted their thinking, they'd be better mothers, wives and co-workers.
"I'm not talking about taking off and forgetting you have a family or a job and doing something irrational," she explains. "Maybe treat yourself to a half hour walk or a yoga class. When you don't take time for yourself you have anxiety, depression, insomnia, a short temper. Would you rather get home at 6 short tempered or at 6:30 centered?"
Here are some tips on how to take "me time" without the guilt:
Start small
"I had a client who had trouble even taking just five minutes a week," says Mintz. "That's one five-minute break in a whole week! So we started slowly and I asked her to just walk around the block. When she got back and saw how much better she felt, she did it a few times a week over time. Now she takes an hour a day and the change in her attitude and energy level is astonishing."
Honor thy mother
"Mothers have got to stop being uncomfortable being mothers," says Myss. "They have to stop thinking that stepping into motherhood is inadequate—'I'm just a mother'—JUST a mother? Since when is mother an inadequate role?"
Shorten your to-do list
"You're never going to get to everything on the to-do list," says Fiedelholtz. "Scale it down and put something on there that you've never done before that involves the children. Make it fun."
Support each other
"Mothers are hard on themselves and each other," says Fiedelholtz. "We have to adjust our expectations and admit to each other that we've had a rough day. And that we aren't getting all of the food groups in our kids meals every single time. We're human, and we need to be honest about it."

LOS ANGELES - Robert Rodriguez's "Machete Kills" is a sequel based on an end-credits joke from a film that was itself based on a joke trailer contained within a half-joke grindhouse homage. Exactly how many degrees such an endeavor is removed from anything resembling serious cinema would require Jean Baudrillard to calculate, yet for more immediate filmgoing purposes, all there is to see here is a surprisingly long-lived gag finally running out of gas. As violent as its predecessor yet noticeably duller and less outrageous, "Machete Kills" is dragged to the finish line entirely by its director's madcap energy and an absurd cast of major stars in strange cameos.
Since emerging as a DIY hero in the 1990s, Rodriguez has always been an inherently likable figure on the indie scene. At his best, he can tap into the most delightfully stupid adolescent fantasies and infuse them with a sort of earnestness that almost verges on sweetness - for example, casting Rose McGowan as a stripper with an M4 carbine for a leg in "Planet Terror." At his worst, however, Rodriguez's fantasies seem taken straight from the kind of adolescent who spends an inordinate amount of time with the school psychologist - for example, casting Sofia Vergara as a bloodthirsty madam who once ate her father's genitals and strides into battle with a machine-gun bra and strap-on dildo shotgun that fires when she thrusts her hips. Here serving as a characteristic one-man crew, Rodriguez leans heavily toward the latter mode.
Reprising his unexpectedly career-defining role as the monosyllabic, mononymic Machete, Danny Trejo once again proves to be a master of granite-faced deadpan. Machete's character motivations have hardly developed beyond getting the girl and killing the bad guys, yet he suffers a tragedy in the film's opening reel and is offered something of a chance at redemption, as well as American citizenship, from the president of the United States (Charlie Sheen, here credited under his birth name, Carlos Estevez) in exchange for his services. Crazed Mexican revolutionary Marcos Mendoza (Demian Bichir) plans to fire a nuclear missile at Washington, and Machete is tasked with stopping him, placed under the care of a handler (Amber Heard) hiding in plain sight as Miss San Antonio.
"You know Mexico. Hell, you are Mexico," the president tells Machete, a line that would surely spark a cross-border war were it spoken by a real-life U.S. leader. Machete proceeds to effortlessly infiltrate Mendoza's Acapulco compound, where he discovers that not only does the onetime drug lord suffer from multiple personalities, he also has the missile launch device implanted in his heart. Thus Machete must fight his way back across the border with Mendoza as his captive to find the bomb's American creator, the Bond-villainous weapons dealer Luther Voz (Mel Gibson).
While the first "Machete" was a far more complete film than this, it ran into trouble whenever it became convinced it had actual satirical points about race and immigration to make; marrying slapstick cartoon ultraviolence with, say, the genuinely upsetting sight of a pregnant migrant being gunned down requires a complexity of wit that Rodriguez has never remotely exhibited. "Machete Kills" aims for nothing more complex than sheer sanguinary lunacy, though it nonetheless contains far fewer original ideas: Heads are heedlessly lopped off, intestines are once again used as rope, the phrase "Machete don't . " is repeated three times, and a sex scene between Trejo and Heard ends with a meta-gag cribbed straight from Quentin Tarantino's half of "Grindhouse."
The film draws most of its charm from the obvious fun its supporting cast appears to have had on set, and Rodriguez has little trouble holding audience interest when he can simply introduce a new outrageous character every five minutes or so. Michelle Rodriguez and Jessica Alba reprise their roles from the original; Walt Goggins, Cuba Gooding Jr., Antonio Banderas and Lady Gaga all make good with their respective turns as assassins; and "Spy Kids" alumna Alexa Vega finally completes her maturation from child star to ludicrously pneumatic sexpot.
Yet the spotlight remains trained on the film's pair of troubled middle-aged thesps, grasping the career-rehab lifeline that Rodriguez extended to Lindsay Lohan the last time out. Sheen gets a chance to yet again have fun with his sullied reputation - his POTUS pounds tequila in the Oval Office, lights his cigarettes with a butane torch and receives red-telephone calls in the midst of a menage a quatre - while Gibson does another round of penance as a wild-eyed religious fundamentalist.
"Machete Kills," an Open Road release, is rated R by the Motion Picture Association of America for "strong bloody violence throughout, language and some sexual content." Running time: 107 minutes.

Looks like Nordstrom is losing Chachi's business.
Actor Scott Baio, an ardent supporter of President Donald Trump, tweeted what appears to be a statement from Nordstrom in his wife's name with purchases totaling $30,000. But the former "Happy Days" star made it clear he and his family would be taking their business elsewhere.
"Dear @Nordstrom NEVER AGAIN!," Baio tweeted.
The Baio protest follows the department store chain announcing it would stop selling Ivanka Trump's clothing and accessory line, a decision the store insists was made only for business reasons.
But the decision infuriated Trump, who slammed the chain in a series of tweets last week.

Controversial Osprey aircraft deployed to Iraq
WASHINGTON — The first combat squadron of tilt-rotor V-22 Ospreys has been quietly deployed to Iraq, ushering a new form of aerial technology into 21st Century warfare.
A Marine Corps aviation squadron and 10 Ospreys left for Iraq on Monday aboard the U.S.S. Wasp, a small Navy aircraft carrier known as an amphibious assault ship, said Marine Corps spokesman Maj. Eric Dent.
The departure from the New River Marine Corps Air Station near Jacksonville, N.C., was made under extremely tight security with no advance notice to the news media and no ceremonial speeches by Marine Corps officials. ``It was just another workday for the squadron,'' Dent said.
Marine Medium Tiltrotor Squadron 263, nicknamed ``The Thunder Chickens,'' will be based at the Al Asad Airbase in western Iraq for at least seven months of combat operations. The Marine Corps Ospreys, known as MV-22s, will be used to ferry Marines as well as cargo throughout predominately Sunni Muslim Anbar province.
Dent, citing ``operational security,'' offered only limited details about the deployment and said he was not allowed to discuss the timetable of the trip or scheduled arrival in Iraq. The V-22s, which, in military-speak can ``self-deploy'' into war zones, could conceivably leave the Wasp en route and make the rest of the journey by air.
The deployment marks a long-sought goal after three-decades of tilt-rotor technology that began with the development and flight of Bell Helicopter's XV-15 prototype in the 1970s. Fort Worth-based Bell is manufacturing the Osprey with Boeing Helicopters of Ridley Township, Pa.
The aircraft, which flies like an airplane and lands and takes off like a helicopter, reaches speeds and distances well beyond that of traditional helicopters and is considered far more agile than the aging CH-46 ``Sea Knight'' helicopters that it s replacing.
But the Osprey's entry into combat will be under intense scrutiny after years of controversy that included delays, steadily rising costs and two fatal crashes in 2000 that nearly led to the program's cancellation.
Critics say the tilt-rotor concept is still unproven and could endanger the lives of its crew members in combat. Supporters say it is ideal for combat and will enable Marines to get into hot spots faster and more safely.
The aircraft has provided years of employment at Bell's plants in Texas, where about 1,700 employees manufacture major Osprey components at Grand Prairie and Hurst, near Dallas. The aircraft is assembled by up to 800 workers at another Bell plant in Amarillo.
Bell-Boeing spokesman Bob Leder, based in Amarillo, said workers weren't aware that their handiwork was on its way to Iraq until he posted a copy of a Marine Corps Times article about the deployment.
``There was a feeling of great excitement and at the same time we were praying for the safety of all the Marines,'' Leder said. ``It's like `OK, this is the real thing.'''
Dent said that ``just under 100'' members of the squadron were deployed along with the aircraft after training for the mission for more than a year.
The Thunder Chickens' 28 pilots, including two women, volunteered and were chosen by a Marine Corps selection board.
The squadron commander is Lt. Col. Paul J. Rock Jr., who has been flying Ospreys since the 1990s. At least a third of the squadron has had previous combat experience in Iraq.

Police: Pa. man made up hit-run to get ride home
BERWICK, Pa. (AP) -- Police in central Pennsylvania allege that a man fabricated a story about being the victim of a hit-and-run last month because he wanted a ride home.
The Press Enterprise says the 18-year-old Beach Haven resident was walking along Route 11 in Salem Township at about 1 a.m. on Feb. 8 when he called for help.
Police said he told officers and Berwick Ambulance personnel that he had been struck in the left leg by a pickup truck, but they could find no evidence of an injury. Authorities allege that he eventually acknowledged having made up the story so he could get a ride. They said the suspect will now be facing charges of causing a false alarm, filing a false report and disorderly conduct.

Lessig: Rewriting the RulesBy Wayne Rash | Posted 2007-03-15 Print
Some say Lawrence Lessig, a Stanford law professor, may help define the future of the Internet.The world first learned about Lawrence Lessig when federal Judge Thomas Penfield Jackson appointed him to the post of special master in the U.S. v. Microsoft case in 1997. While his appointment was appealed shortly thereafter and subsequently vacated by the U.S. Court of Appeals, Lessig was invited by Jackson to submit a brief in the case. It was the Microsoft case that catapulted an unknown Harvard Law School professor to being a widely respected thinker who some people suggest may help define the future of the Internet.
After the Microsoft case, Lessig, who now teaches at Stanford University, cemented his role as an influential commentator on the Internet and its future with his book "Code and Other Laws of Cyberspace." The book suggests that computer code may regulate human behavior as much as laws and that, in many cases, the code that controls the Internet may define intellectual property, especially copyright, in ways that the law does not.
In his writings and commentary, Lessig argues that the rules need to be changed if innovation is to flourish. He suggests, for example, that the manner in which copyright is defined does not work in the current digital world.
You must see beyond the trends to become an influential IT person, writes Eric Lundquist. Read his column here.
"The architecture of the Internet was responsible for the innovation around the network," Lessig said in an interview. "It brought about innovation because people didn't need to ask AT&T if they could innovate. [Innovation] must be preserved," he said. Lessig said that even though companies including AT&T may own the physical infrastructure that comprises the Internet, those companies don't hold the keys to who uses it or how it's used.
"I think that companies are increasingly seeing that the existing rules weren't written for this technology," Lessig said. "They don't make sense. They create uncertainty." Lessig pointed out that YouTube, for example, is suffering from just such uncertainty. "The company can't realize its full value because the copyright rules are against it," he said.
While Lessig said he'd like to see legislation that would recognize the changing rules of the Internet, he isn't counting on it. "The reform will be through private action," he said. Lessig said he's already working on this through his organization, Creative Commons, which is fostering flexible copyright licensing. He said his organization has already entered into a deal with the largest insurer of documentary films so that filmmakers can make use of licensing specifically designed to meet their needs, sidestepping today's restrictive default licensing. "It will radically change how documentaries are done," he said.
But, as Lessig points out, that's just one area of innovation that's affected by intellectual property rules that don't match the reality of the Internet. Because of this, Lessig has started the Center for Internet and Society, which is intended to help innovators grow by redefining how copyright rules, including fair use, are handled.
Most important, though, is the idea that the environment makes the rules. "Technology is a kind of a regulator," Lessig said.

DUDLEY Zoo's Sumatran tigress, Daseep, has been chosen as the face of an international conservation campaign for Global Tiger Day.
The annual celebration taking place on Tuesday July 29 aims to raise awareness and help secure the survival of the animals for future generations.
Peter Suddock, chief executive of Dudley Zoological Gardens, said: "It is vital that we play a pivotal role in the survival of these enigmatic animals. The shocking reality is that there are just 3,500 tigers in the wild of which there are fewer than 140 surviving Sumatrans, like the pair we have at DZG.
"Our visitors constantly tell us tigers are what they want to see so it's important that we get the message across about the future of these amazing animals and that extinction is not an option."
Three-year-old Daseep, who is ranked as the world's second most important genetic Sumatran female - and two-year-old male, Joao, are paired as part of a major international conservation project for one of the world's most critically endangered species.
Dudley Zoo registrar and research co-ordinator, Dr David Beeston, said: "Tiger numbers are so low in the wild that any pair that are suitable for breeding serve a huge function in supporting their beleaguered wild cousins by keeping gene pools alive.
"Any captive population of a sustainable size serves as a safety net against the very possible threat of future extinction and Daseep and Joao are playing huge roles in conservation, education and awareness raising."
Conservation programmes are vital for the survival of Sumatran tigers which hail from the Indonesian island of Sumatra.
Eight cubs produced at Dudley Zoo between 2000 and 2005 increased the world population of the species by two per cent.
Daseep, who has become a firm favourite with staff and visitors at Dudley Zoo since arriving from Germany in 2012, was chosen to become the face of 21st Century Tiger's Global Tiger Day "as she reminds us very clearly of what natural beauty would be lost in the wild if we allow tigers to become extinct" - 21st Century Tiger manager Esther Conway said.
In support of Global Tiger Day, the zoo is hosting a programme of activities including a talk at 12.30pm at the tigers' Tecton enclosure.
Staff wearing tiger onesies will also be handing out stickers to visitors, face painters will be giving little ones tiger faces and tiger cupcakes will be served in the Queen Mary Restaurant.

Fikret Bocek says that Turkish quince, a fruit like a pear, takes a long time to grow and ripen, but it's delicious. Patience is key for good quince, he says, and also for the salvation of his fellow Turks, most of whom are Muslim like he once was.
Patience was key when the Turkish police arrested and imprisoned him for 10 days in 1988, when he was beaten, verbally abused, and tortured with electrical shocks. The police ordered Bocek, then a teenager and a new convert to Christianity, to recite the shahada, "There is no God but Allah." Despite a crippling fear, he found he could not physically open his mouth to say it, which he attributes to divine intervention.
Patience, a fierce patience, was key in 2007 when a group of Muslims brutally murdered a close friend of his and two other Christians while they were meeting for a Bible study in Malatya, Turkey. The Muslims, who had pretended that they were interested in Christianity, murdered the three men in a two-hour torture session the killers filmed. They finally slit the Christians' throats from ear to ear.
Bocek, 40, now a pastor and church planter in the coastal town of Izmir, Turkey, tells Western mission agencies to be more patient for faith to ripen in Muslims in his country, and not to alter key biblical phrases in translations for the sake of outreach. The phrase "Son of God" is offensive to Muslims because it seems to imply that God was a physical father to Jesus through a sexual union with Mary, so some translators have sought to find alternate terms to describe that relationship. "They get involved in these translations because they see that there is no fruit," Bocek said. "We have results. But you have to be patient and take it really, really slow." He and his fellow pastors address the offensive connotations of "Son of God" by explaining what it really means. "For centuries," he said, "that's the way it went."
Western mission agencies now are feeling a wave of backlash against these "contextualized" translations-not just from a few conservative denominations in the United States, but from an array of local churches in the countries where these translations are going out. While some Turkish pastors, including several contacted for this article, preferred to let Western mission agencies sort out the controversy on their own, others are taking action. At least a dozen Turkish pastors, as well as some whole churches from the Turkish cities of Adana, Samsun, and Bodrum, have signed a petition condemning a new Turkish translation of Matthew. Harun Ibrahim, the director of Al Hayat TV, a Christian satellite television station that broadcasts to millions in the Middle East, also signed the petition. And the Pakistan Bible Society is ending its two decades of partnership with SIL, a translation partner of Wycliffe Bible Translators, over the issue.
A team of translators with Frontiers helped produce the disputed translation of Matthew in Turkish, and SIL said some of its consultants helped at certain points in the process. Sabeel Media, a partner organization of SIL, published the translation in August 2011, printing it in book form and posting it online. In the Turkish Matthew, the "alternative form" for "Son of God" is something along the lines of "representative of God," according to Turkish speakers, and "God the Father" has become "great protector." A footnote explains the alternate terms: "According to the Jews, 'God's Son' means 'God's beloved ruler' and is equivalent with the title 'Messiah.'"
The alternative translation runs on pages on the right, while the pages on the left have an "interlinear" translation with the original Greek words and Turkish underneath, containing the literal translation of the divine familial terms. Bocek, however, said Turks are unlikely to read the literal version on the left-hand side, where the Turkish words run underneath the Greek, but rather the right-hand page that is just Turkish.
The translators emphasize their desire to promote evangelism. Bob Blincoe, the U.S. director of Frontiers, cited in an email lack of growth as one reason for the translation: "The big problem is that church planting among the tens of millions of religious Muslims in Turkey has not been successful; it has not even begun." Turkey is 99.8 percent Muslim, according to the CIA World Factbook. Turks estimate that their country has about 5,000 Christians now, but when Bocek became a Christian in 1988, he was one of a total of 80 Protestants in the country. "One significant barrier may be the existing translation of the Bible," Blincoe wrote in an email: "These are paraphrases that help a conservative Sunni Muslim audience know what the Bible really says."
As a Sunni Muslim himself, Bocek also found the phrase "Son of God" offensive: "I could not accept Jesus being the Son of God or God being the Father or the deity of Christ. ... Basically God just worked in my heart." Bocek grew up in Istanbul and the Turkish national television had one channel and showed one movie a week, he said. One day it showed Ben Hur, which depicts Jesus' crucifixion. That began his search for answers about Jesus. He eventually found an international church and spent months studying the Bible from beginning to end, until he had "nothing else left" but to accept faith.
Bocek, trained in linguistics at a Turkish university, then studied at Westminster Seminary California, graduating in 1998 and returning to Turkey to plant a church in 2001 with his wife. During the process of translating Matthew, a Frontiers missionary consulted with Bocek about the book. Bocek said he objected to the alterations to the familial terms, but that wasn't the only problem with the translation: He said the Turkish was unnatural and contained grammatical errors. A Turkish translation of the Bible exists already, but the Frontiers translators explained to supporters that they needed another translation to reach conservative Muslims.
"There is no cause for anyone to be alarmed by the accuracy of this translation," said Blincoe, the Frontiers director. He said the petition against the Turkish Matthew amounts to "slander" and is "like yelling, 'Fire!' in a theater." The petition "has been a great disservice to the peace and unity of the church," he said. He emphasized that the Turkish-Greek translation on the left-hand page preserves the literal terms for Son of God and God the Father. When I said that Turkish speakers say the translation on the right-hand page alters those familial terms, he responded, "You and I don't know what the paraphrase says."
But then Blincoe said the translation team doesn't have plans to translate the other books of the New Testament, so I asked why not if he thought this was an important tactic to reach unreached people. He said that was simply what workers in the field had told him: "Let's give it a chance to do its work." In an email he added, "The team believes that if Turks do not take ownership, the project will just fade away, as the teacher Gamaliel commented about human efforts in Acts 5."
Blincoe said Frontiers has contacted a number of local pastors in the last few weeks and urged them to read the translation for the first time (implying that critics hadn't read it). He said many approve. Bocek countered that many Turkish pastors have read the translation, and still disapprove. He and the other Protestant pastors he knows oppose it-not just Reformed pastors like himself, but also those at "extreme charismatic" churches. "They're not listening," he said about the missions agencies: "They come with theories and they leave with theories. ... We are going to be the ones who are going to be sweeping up all their mistakes."
Thomas Cosmades, a Turkish Christian who translated the New Testament into Turkish from the original Greek, mailed a letter to Frontiers at the end of 2007 after he saw a copy of the Turkish Matthew. (Several hundred were printed before the official publication in 2011). Cosmades died in 2010, at age 86, just after he published a new edition of his New Testament. In his letter he wrote that he was "highly disquieted" by the paraphrased Matthew and proceeded to analyze the debatable phrases in detail.
"This translation is not seeking to emphasize the value of the incarnation," he wrote. "Should the trend continue, who knows where it will lead the coming generation? If Athanasius of old would have encountered such departure from biblical Christology he would have placed these redactors far below the Arians." He continued: "Undoubtedly the people who are working hard on this paraphrase have given much of their valuable time, probably meaning well. I wish I had a positive word concerning their efforts, but I regret that this is not the case. In this paraphrase the stakes are high; the pitfalls dismal."
Blincoe couldn't answer whether the translation had been changed in response to Cosmades' critiques before its official publication in 2011, but Bocek said, "The kinds of words [Cosmades] said they're using, it's still there." Cosmades' wife Lila also signed the petition condemning the translation of Matthew.
Everyone interviewed who was critical of the translation said they believe a small minority of individuals in these mission agencies is pushing these translations in Turkey and other countries, and most missionaries are faithful to the Bible. "Missionaries give their lives for us," said Samuel Naaman, a Pakistani believer who now teaches at Moody Bible Institute: "You're hearing from a person who came to Christ through the power of missionaries' prayers for 18 years. I was discipled and trained by the missionaries."
Naaman said "contextualizing" the gospel for the local culture is fine: "Christ himself came to us, and was born as a human. ... He is the founder and the basis of contextualization." He is nevertheless worried about the consequences of contextualized translations for the church in Pakistan: "Many of the pastors don't even know that this curse is being imposed on us. ... Then they will have to face the repercussions."
The Pakistan church at large may not know about the debate, but the Pakistan Bible Society (PBS) does. After 20 years of work together, the Bible society and SIL are parting ways over the issue, which is a blow to SIL because now it must operate without the imprimatur of the premier local publisher. SIL said in a statement that the decision not to work together on one project was mutual, the result of "translation style differences," not just the debate on divine familial terms.
But the general secretary of the Pakistan Bible Society, Anthony Lamuel, wrote in a letter on Jan. 26 that the issue of altering terms for target audiences was central in the decision, and added that such translations have resulted in the "water downing" of Christian concepts: "We the Pakistan Bible Society will not promote experiments with the translation at the cost of hurting the church."
A woman working on another translation project in Central Asia, who asked for anonymity for the sake of her work, said the debate on the "Son of God" issue in her translation team has deadlocked their project and stirred confusion among local believers who don't have a Bible in their own language as a reference: "It has eroded their faith in the authority of the Word of God and in us as foreigners who are supposed to be the 'teachers' but can't seem to agree on some basic truths of who Christ said he was. ... Sadly it raises doubts and endless discussion, wasting a lot of time."
Anwar Hussain, the head of the Bangladesh Bible Society, has been at the forefront of efforts in his country the last few years to repel Bible translations from various groups that change divine familial terms. Hussain grew up Muslim, and when he professed Christ as a young man, his family cut ties with him. Edward Ayub, another Christian of Muslim background, is the moderator of the Presbyterian Church of Bangladesh and-alongside Hussain-has vigorously opposed the translations. "I want to die for the Bible," not a misleading translation, Ayub said. "The harm they are doing now for the church will be long-lasting."
Back in Turkey, Bocek recalled meeting a young Muslim who was in school in Izmir, and who planned to train for jihad. He offered the young man a Bible, and the man took it, saying he would prove "the Bible is a corrupt book." The young man read through the whole Bible and met with Bocek regularly to talk about it over the course of almost a year. "He started saying he saw the real corruption," Bocek said. "He realized his heart was corrupt." When the man became a Christian, his parents sought to kill him, and the church had to hide him for two years. "These are the kinds of things that happen," Bocek said, "when they say there's no fruit."
(Editor's note: The article has been corrected to reflect new details concerning the three Christians who were murdered in Malatya, Turkey, in 2007. Early reports of the murders included other details and those reports have been repeated since, but individuals who saw the bodies confirmed to WORLD that those early reports were inaccurate.)

Current occupation: Governor of Alaska
Age: 45
Residence: Wasilla, Alaska
Little-known public official interviewed in the August 2009 issue of Runner's World magazine:
"I feel so crappy if I go more than a few days without running. I have to run. No matter how rotten I feel before or during a run, it's always worth it to me afterwards. Sweat is my sanity. A great frustration I had during the campaign was when the McCain staff wouldn't carve out time for me to go for a run. The days never went as well if I couldn't get out there and sweat. ...
"I went for a run at John McCain's ranch a couple of days before the debate with Joe Biden. My favorite thing in the world is to run on hot, dusty roads. I don't get enough of that in Alaska. So I was in heaven and there were plenty of hills so I knew my thighs were going to just throb and my lungs were going to burn and that's what I crave."
Palin intends to continue running because she feels a commitment.
