Japan Airlines (JAL) had to divert two Boeing 787 aircraft bound for Tokyo back to their departure airports on 9 October because of different technical issues encountered after take-off.
The first aircraft, registration JA832J, had to return to Moscow's Domodedovo International airport when pilots discovered a failure in the aircraft's electrical system after take-off. The failure affected power to the aircraft's lavatories and galleys, says a JAL spokesman.
The other jet, registration JA825J, turned back to San Diego when an alert indicating failure in the right engine's anti-ice system was activated. Both aircraft have since returned to service after undergoing the necessary maintenance work, says JAL. Both flights were, however, severely delayed. JAL is one of the largest 787 operators in the world with 11 787-8s in its fleet. The Japanese carrier also has an additional 13 -8s and 20 of the larger -9 variants on order. The carrier made the news this week when it signed a landmark deal with Airbus for 31 A350s, its first ever Airbus order. Analysts say reliability issues related to the 787 played a part in turning the loyal Boeing customer towards Airbus. The global 787 fleet was grounded for more than four months early this year because of issues with the aircraft's lithium-ion batteries.

Farmer believes he is the right man for the A&M-CC job
Farmer is the fourth - and likely final - candidate to interview for the position, arriving Monday. But as previous interviewee Brian Teter of Cincinnati played up his contacts with major conferences and big schools, Farmer showcased his work in smaller markets as a reason why he could mesh with the Islanders.
As Farmer currently is the senior associate athletic director at Troy (Ala.) and launched his career at Georgia Southern, he knows the difficulties smaller schools face trying to establish a foothold in the community and beyond.
Twenty years of experience in those markets make him able to relate to A&M-Corpus Christi, a small school in terms of student population that battles other entities in town for fans and corporate dollars.
It is also why he shuns the 'internal' label of one who works more within the athletic department, unlike the other three 'external' candidates. At smaller markets, there are plenty of hats for everybody to wear.
"Quite honestly, (at) both Georgia Southern and Troy, we're so small that everybody is involved with fundraisers, corporate sales," said Farmer, who moved to Troy in 1999. "My background has been in all aspects of an athletic department - fund raising, marketing, promotions, support programs, business office, compliance. I've had my finger on the pulse of the entire department.
"Corpus Christi still has a young, growing athletic department. I think they're going to have to have someone who can come in with experience at those different skill levels while they grow the staff, mature the staff."
A point of pride for Farmer is the corporate donors for Troy despite the town's population of less than 15,000. He mentioned two gifts for baseball over the past two seasons that totaled $75,000. He fondly remembers a deal with Movie Gallery for a sponsorship of Troy's football stadium, a rarity in selling a college football stadium's naming rights.
Another point of contention for A&M-Corpus Christi is lackluster attendance. Farmer said many factors are involved, including the quality of the opponent, quality of the home team and ticket price.
Farmer has experience in this field as well. In his first four years at Troy, the basketball program sold no more than 350 season tickets. He came up with a two-day blitz, with a goal of 750. More than 1,500 were sold. That led to a similar push in baseball.
Though Farmer said he has not discussed with his wife Jackie if she would be the Islanders ticket manager - she Troy and Georgia Southern on her resume - it's obvious he's well versed in that area.
"It will be an aggressive two-pronged approach," Farmer said of a ticket plan. "We will have someone in charge of marketing. We'll make a huge push with season tickets. My experience with college athletics is that season tickets - you need to sell them. You will not get a big walk-up crowd.
"You need a second person for promotions," Farmer added. "I believe it's got to be two separate people. Promotions increase game attendance, promotions can create atmosphere.
"We're going to make a push for season tickets. That's money in the bank."

Flex Room: The Story Ends With a New System
Last spring, the Flex Room, in which students stayed during their free periods, was closed because the administration said students' behavior there was out of control. At first, this closing led to a solution in which many people were unhappy: students had to stay in the hallways, which made it very hard for them to do homework and interact with each other like they did in the Flex Room. Then they were allowed to stay in particular rooms that were available during their free periods.
Now it's a new year, and while the Flex Room is still closed, and although not everyone is happy with it, an improved version of the second alternative seems to be working well.
Although we're not in the same big room as last year, when people have a free they are to stay in a particular room with the designated teacher that week. The subs being hired to supervise seem to have more control over the students than last year and the students as a whole are better behaved.
However, students, such as Agim Lamaj, are unhappy with it. I asked him if he misses the Flex Room and he said, "Yes I miss it very much. Because it used to be very fun and I used to complete my work." It seems that what Agim, and others don't like is the fact that a lot of the free room teachers don't let the children speak, even when it has to do with work. In fact, he said, "It's actually an alright alternative. It could be better, though, if we had more freedom and a laptop cart in the room."
I spoke to Ms. Jessica Marchetti, assistant principal, about the issue of teachers not letting the students talk to each other and she said, "I think that quiet collaboration should be and is allowed. The problem is when students start to become off task."
Even though, according to Ms. Marchetti, students are "more productive when they have a space to work," I asked her why the Flex Room didn't reopen after students agreed they would take more care of it and behave better. She said, "The Flex Room did not reopen, unfortunately, because we needed to use the space in 226-228 for new classes." She added, "For the near future, I don't foresee us getting more space. However, I still think it would be great if students volunteered to monitor the study hall and make it great."

Lewis's structures show each atom in the structure of the molecule using its chemical symbol. Lines are drawn between atoms that are bonded to one another (rarely, pairs of dots are used instead of lines). Excess electrons that form lone pairs are represented as pairs of dots, and are placed next to the atoms.
The initial Lewis structure should be drawn with each non-central atom connected by a single bond to the central atom, although not all atoms have to be connected to show bonds.
In some cases, the central atom is difficult to determine, generally when each element appears more than once. In these cases, the connectivity of the structure—that is, the determination of which atoms are connected to which others—must be determined either by trial and error or prior knowledge.
When the central atom is known or determined, the Lewis structure can be drawn in exactly the same fashion.
The octet rule states molecules with eight electrons in their valence shell will be stable, regardless of whether these electrons are bonding or nonbonding. The rule applies well to organic compounds. The 18-Electron rule is operative on atoms from period 4, which have to achieve 18 electrons to fill their orbitals and achieve a noble gas configuration. Similarly from period 6, the atoms have to achieve 32 electrons to fill their orbitals.
Once the total number of available electrons has been determined, electrons must be placed into the structure. They should be placed initially as lone pairs: one pair of dots for each pair of electrons available. Lone pairs should initially be placed on outer atoms (other than hydrogen) until each outer atom has eight electrons in bonding pairs and lone pairs; extra lone pairs may then be placed on the central atom. When in doubt, lone pairs should be placed on more electronegative atoms first.
Once all lone pairs are placed, atoms, especially the central atoms, may not have an octet of electrons. In this case, the atoms must form a double bond; a lone pair of electrons is moved to form a second bond between the two atoms. As the bonding pair is shared between the two atoms, the atom that originally had the lone pair still has an octet; the other atom now has two more electrons in its valence shell.
Aside from organic compounds, only a minority of compounds have an octet of electrons in their valence shell. Incomplete octets are common for compounds of groups 2 and 13 such as beryllium, boron, and aluminium. Compounds with more than eight electrons in the Lewis representation of the valence shell of an atom are called hypervalent, and are common for elements of groups 15 to 18, such as phosphorus, sulfur, iodine, and xenon.
Lewis structures for polyatomic ions may be drawn by the same method. When counting electrons, negative ions should have extra electrons placed in their Lewis structures; positive ions should have fewer electrons than an uncharged molecule.
When the Lewis structure of an ion is written, the entire structure is placed in brackets, and the charge is written as a superscript on the upper right, outside the brackets.
A simpler method has been proposed for constructing Lewis structures eliminating the need for electron counting: the atoms are drawn showing the valence electrons, bonds are then formed by pairing up valence electrons of the atoms involved in the bond-making process and anions and cations are formed by adding or removing electrons to/from the appropriate atoms.
The formal charge of an atom is computed as the difference between the number of valence electrons that a neutral atom would have and the number of electrons that belong to it in the Lewis structure. Electrons in covalent bonds are split equally between the atoms involved in the bond. The total of the formal charges on an ion should be equal to the charge on the ion, and the total of the formal charges on a neutral molecule should be equal to zero.
When this situation occurs, the molecule's Lewis structure is said to be a resonance structure, and the molecule exists as a resonance hybrid. Each of the different possibilities is superimposed on the others, and the molecule is considered to have a Lewis structure equivalent to an average of these states.
The nitrate ion (NO3-), for instance, must form a double bond between nitrogen and one of the oxygens to satisfy the octet rule for nitrogen. However, because the molecule is symmetrical, it does not matter which of the oxygens forms the double bond. In this case, there are three possible resonance structures. Expressing resonance when drawing Lewis structures may be done either by drawing each of the possible resonance forms and placing double-headed arrows between them or by using dashed lines to represent the partial bonds.
When comparing resonance structures for the same molecule, usually those with the fewest formal charges contribute more to the overall resonance hybrid. When formal charges are necessary, resonance structures that have negative charges on the more electronegative elements and positive charges on the less electronegative elements are favored.
In the case of the nitrate ion, there are two single bonds and one double bond in each resonance form. When the nitrate ion is examined, however, each bond appears as though it has a bond order of 1.333—that is, each has properties as if it were composed of one and one-third total bonds. The length and bond energy of each is somewhere between that of a single bond and a double bond.
The resonance structure should not be interpreted to indicate that the molecule switches between forms, but that the molecule acts as the average of multiple forms.
'''Step one: Nitrogen is the least electronegative atom, so it is the central atom by multiple criteria.
Step two: Count valence electrons. Nitrogen has 5 valence electrons; each oxygen has 6, for a total of (6 × 2) + 5 = 17. The ion has a charge of −1, which indicates an extra electron, so the total number of electrons is 18.
Step three: Place ion pairs. Each oxygen must be bonded to the nitrogen, which uses four electrons — two in each bond. The 14 remaining electrons should initially be placed as 7 lone pairs. Each oxygen may take a maximum of 3 lone pairs, giving each oxygen 8 electrons including the bonding pair. The seventh lone pair must be placed on the nitrogen atom.
Step four: Satisfy the octet rule. Both oxygen atoms currently have 8 electrons assigned to them. The nitrogen atom has only 6 electrons assigned to it. One of the lone pairs on an oxygen atom must form a double bond, but either atom will work equally well. We therefore must have a resonance structure.
Step five: Tie up loose ends. Two Lewis structures must be drawn: one with each oxygen atom double-bonded to the nitrogen atom. The second oxygen atom in each structure will be single-bonded to the nitrogen atom. Place brackets around each structure, and add the charge (−) to the upper right outside the brackets. Draw a double-headed arrow between the two resonance forms.
Chemical structures may be written in more compacted forms, particularly when showing organic molecules. In condensed structural formulas, many or even all of the covalent bonds may be left out, with subscripts indicating the number of identical groups attached to a particular atom. Another shorthand structural diagram is the skeletal formula (also known as a bond-line formula or carbon skeleton diagram). In skeletal formulae, carbon atoms are not signified by the symbol C but by the vertices of the lines. Hydrogen atoms bonded to carbon are not shown — they can be inferred by counting the number of bonds to a particular carbon atom — each carbon is assumed to have four bonds in total, so any bonds not shown are, by implication, to hydrogen atoms.
Other diagrams may be more complex than Lewis structures, showing bonds in 3D using various forms such as space filling diagrams.

COLLEGE PARK — — Randy Edsall is having the kind of week that makes football coaches chug Maalox at two in the morning.
Maybe you heard: Maryland is having issues as it gets ready to play Boston College on Saturday.
The main issue is that the Terps' quarterbacks keep getting carted off the field and returning to the sidelines on crutches.

Minneapolis began to give our single-sort recycling to residents Monday in an attempt to encourage recycling and allow residents to stop having to sort into numerous containers, Star Tribune said.
The Minneapolis recycling rate is a mere 18.1%, meaning there is "not quite 1 in every 5 households," MinnPost said. St. Paul, on the other hand, has a staggering 46% recycling rate, which can be translated to half of the city's households.
How can this be? MinnPost attributes it to their switch to a multi-source recycling system with every-other-week pickup, in which St. Paul residents place their paper in one bin and the rest of their recyclables in the other. "We increased the recovery rate by 15 to 18 percent," said Tim Brownell, CEO of Eureka Recycling, which serves St. Paul. The switch "gave people more capacity," he said.
By giving single-sort recycling bins to Minneapolis residents, the city hopes to get more residents involved and participating. By doing so, they also hope to double the Minneapolis recycling rate by 2015. Until residents receive their bins, they should continue sorting their own in whichever fashion they choose. The city plans to distribute the bins in two phases: the first phase will be this month, with 30,000 distributed. The second phase will distribute the rest of the bins in the Spring of 2013.
"One-sort recycling will be so simple," said Council Member Sandy Colvin Roy, who chairs the Transportation and Public Works Committee. "It's going to be much simpler for people, and that is why we think there will be a much larger volume of recycling." Minneapolis residents will no longer have to have bags of recyclables laying around the house, instead they will have an efficient system to facilitate a green environment.
According to MinnPost, "the city has already ordered blue 95-gallon carts, and the good news is you get to keep what is left of your old green or blue plastic bin. The cost for the carts, at one per household, is $6.8 million. The cost for eight additional collection trucks is $1.976 million for a total of slightly more than $8.7 million."
Picking up garbage every other week in Minneapolis will remain the same system, however, the new 95-gallon carts will be able to handle "two weeks' worth of materials."

Usability testing conclusions
When making conclusions, you want to pay specific attention to common errors and difficulties. Identify problems experienced by multiple participants first. If a problem is experienced by one user, take a close look and try to determine if it is a problem likely to occur with other users.
You may also want to determine the scope and severity of any problems. A possible rating scale to use for each error is:
- Unusable: the user cannot or will not perform the task
- Severe: the user's attempt to perform the task is severely hampered
- Moderate: the user can perform the task with moderate effort to overcome the problem
- Irritant: the problem is cosmetic, or does not present significant difficulty in the user's effort to perform the task.
Further, determine what part of the product the error affects. It may affect only one part of the product (local problems), several parts, but not all, of the product (semi-local or semi-global problems), or the entire product (global problem).
For comparison testing, list both positive and negative aspects of the products and compare. Do not adopt products that include "unusable" type problems.

AS Tanzania joined the world in marking the International Human Rights Day on Monday, it emerged that 673 people were killed through mob justice in the country, last year, and thus denying them their right to live.
The Executive Director of the Legal and Human Rights Centre (LHRC), Dr Hellen Kijo-Bisimba, made the revelation in Dar es Salaam. The Day in Tanzania carried the theme; "Participate in the process of re-writing the constitution in order to protect natural resources."
Dr Kijo-Bisimba, who is a staunch advocate of human rights, expressed concern that some citizens have continued to take the law into their own hands by punishing suspected offenders of various crimes and thus creating confusion in the society. She noted that incidences of mob justice have kept on escalating each year, particularly in major cities and towns.
According to her, there were only 40 cases of mob justice in 2005 which have however maintained an upward trend, most of the victims being suspected thieves. On the other hand, the LHRC boss said murder cases on people suspected to be engaged in witchcraft have also been on the rise, recording 579 deaths in 2010 and 600 in the year 2011.
"Likewise, some 52 people were killed under police custody in 2010 while 28 others were killed in 2011. In the year 2005 and 2006, about 36 and 37 people were killed by the cops," she alleged.
Gracing the occasion, the LHRC Board Chairperson, Retired Bishop Dr Elinaza Sendoro, urged Tanzanians to ensure that protection of natural resources is high on the agenda towards re-writing of the country's basic law. Issues to do with land should be protected by the constitution failure of which they might cause huge problems for the country, according to the retired bishop.
The event attracted the general public, civil societies, diplomats accredited to Tanzania and students from primary and secondary schools as well as their counterparts from higher institutions of learning.
Organized by the Legal and Human Rights Centre (LHRC), the Day started with a peaceful procession that started from LHRC headquarters in Kijitonyama, made several rounds and ended at the TTCL grounds. To spice up the event, various traditional groups entertained the audience with dances and drama.

Commercial and private vehicles were unable to use a large part of Lightfoot Boston Street on Thursday as a result of the emergence of human faeces at Pultney Street thus causing traders selling along the street to remove their wares to avoid the odour. Pedestrians had to cover their noses as they passed by.
Some of the traders who sell around Belgium told Concord Times that it is unhygienic to inhale such pungent smell and that it was not the first time for human faeces to emerge on the street where they sell.
Chairman of the Belgium Sellers Association, Oseh Davies, stated that they have tried all they could to ensure that human faeces stop flowing from the drains but to no avail because the authorities concerned have turned deaf ears to the menace.
"We have done our best to stop human faeces coming from the gutters but it is getting worse," Davies said. "We find it very difficult to sell anytime human faeces burst from the gutters to the street."
He pointed out that the faeces come from the drainage at Pultney Street right through Lightfoot Boston Street in which some of the offices in the area connect their waste pipes through the drains.
"Even vehicles sometimes divert to other areas in order to evade the mess and bad smell. We are calling on the Freetown City Council to do something with immediate effect to salvage the situation," Davies said.
On his part, a trader, SorieThullah, added that they have been experiencing such problem for the past five years but it seems to be getting worse with little done by the FCC to address the situation.

TERMINATOR technology: the name alone makes it sound like the work of a James Bond villain intent on world domination. For critics of multinational biotech corporations, the reality seems hardly less horrifying. Terminator technology is a way of making genetically modified plants produce sterile seeds, forcing farmers to buy fresh seed every year instead of saving it from the previous year's harvest.
Aren't farmers in developing countries poor enough already? Surely multinationals should not be plotting to make them even poorer. There is a de facto moratorium on the commercialisation of Terminator technology, and this month at a meeting in Bangkok of the Convention on Biodiversity, Canada failed in an attempt to overturn it. Shouldn't we be celebrating?
Actually, no. Eco-activists have got it wrong. Instead of fighting Terminator technology, we should all be encouraging it - even campaigning to make it compulsory for most GM plants. There are plenty ...

At the UFC Sweden post-fight presser on Saturday, UFC President Dana White wasn't prepared to discuss Alistair Overeem's upcoming date with the NSAC due to his high testosterone reading from the surprise drug test taken at the UFC 146 press conference, but was more than happy to put to bed talk of Australian-based fighter Mark Hunt taking the championship contention spot against Junior Dos Santos if required.
"They can keep rallying, it ain't going to happen" Dana mentions of the 10,000 strong fan base getting behind the 'Super Samoan' flooding twitter timelines with the request to #rallyforhunt. Dana then announces that if Hunt gets past Struve, then he will have to fight at least one of the top five guys in the division before getting the shot; "You don't just jump right into the title shot".
Hunt is riding on his win over Cheick Kongo at UFC 144 in Japan, and has been the cause of many crazy requests to Dana, including requesting to fight on the following week's UFC on fx event held in Sydney, in which the president also denied.
For Hunt, he certainly has had an up-and-down rollercoaster ride of an MMA career, with an overall record of 8-7 and is currently sitting 3-1 in the UFC. His only recent loss was from a nasty arm bar from ex-UFC fighter Sean "Big Sexy" McCorkle at UFC 119 in September 2010.
Fans of Hunt could certainly point out that previous Heavyweight champion Brock Lesnar was only 1-1 in the promotion before he was granted his title shot against Randy Couture back in 2008. That said, the division was completely different to what we are seeing now, there are at least 4-5 guys who are genuine title threats.
With most of these contenders tied up in fights at the same event, it leads to a very precarious position for the promotion. To pull out Frank Mir for the title shot will then require someone to fill the space left against Cain Velasquez, and may require a switcheroo of the entire division. There has even been talk about Dan Henderson accepting the title fight, if offered.
Unfortunately for Hunt fans, their dream may be over in the short term; for the rest of us, we will have to keep speculating until April 24th and the NSAC hearing.

"The So So Glos are a punk rock band based in Brooklyn, New York. The band consists of Alex Levine (vocals, bass), Ryan Levine (guitar, vocals), Matt Elkin (guitar, vocals) and Zach Staggers (drums, vocals). They have toured the U.S. and Europe extensively on their own and are recognized for their active participation in New York's all-ages venues and the DIY movement. "[They are] hometown heroes," says Blackbook Magazine of the band's high level of community involvement, "They rule the underground, all-ages music scene in the city."
Brothers Alex and Ryan Levine, originally from Bay Ridge, met drummer Zach Staggers in pre-school. Through divorces and remarriages, Zach became their step-brother and they began playing music at a very early age. Over the course of their childhood, the three brothers moved around the New York metropolitan area frequently, yet always devoted time to writing and playing music together.
The So So Glos adopted their current name in 2007, the same year they self-released eponymous debut, recorded after-hours in a Staten Island studio with childhood friend Adam Reich. Guitarist Matt Elkin joined the band late in the year, just prior to their first cross-country tour. They returned in early 2008 and co-founded all-ages Brooklyn venue The Market Hotel with DIY show promoter Todd P.
The So So Glos released their EP, Tourism / Terrorism, in fall 2008 through Warner subsidiary Green Owl Records. Consisting of nine tracks, the EP received an A- from Robert Christgau and won the "Best Punk Album" category of the 9th Annual Independent Music Awards. After several D.I.Y. tours of the U.S. in support of the album, the band toured Europe as an opening act for Trail of Dead.
During the summer of 2009, The So So Glos teamed up with Shea Stadium founder Adam Reich (who is also a touring member/producing collaborator of New Jersey band, Titus Andronicus) to establish the all-ages performance space/recording studio in Brooklyn affectionately called Shea Stadium. They toured the U.S. and Canada for six weeks with New Jersey heroes Titus Andronicus and embarked on their second European tour (supporting the Virgins) shortly afterward.
In June 2010 the band recorded new material with Nicolas Vernhes at the Rare Book Room in Greenpoint, Brooklyn. They released their 7-inch EP Low Back Chain Shift on October 12th that same year. They supported both Matt & Kim and the Futureheads during their North American tours that autumn.
Their 2nd full length, Blowout, was released in partnership with Shea Stadium Records and Votiv Music April 23rd, 2013. Garnering 4 out of 5 stars from Rolling Stone and glowing reviews from Consequence of Sound, Pitchfork, Blackbook Magazine and Stereogum among others, the band played The Tonight Show with David Letterman in April and has been on the road since."

Cofounder Matt Flynn discusses the HourForEquity's mission as a startup for startups. Vimeo
The concept of founder dating isn't new. One of the most common concerns among new entrepreneurs is how to meet that special someone to settle down with and build a company together. And last week, HoursForEquity, whose site is just six-weeks-old and a startup in its own right, launched a suite of new tools making it easier for startups and those nascent team-builders to find each other in exchange for future equity in the company.
"Our new features include an expanded talent/startup search, advanced job-listing criteria, and the ability to list multiple job openings at once," wrote Bill Lott, 25, cofounder and chief executive, in an email to Upstart Business Journal. "We're still tweaking," he continued in a later interview, "But we're ready to launch and help entrepreneurs and startups get jobs."
The Boston-based Hours For Equity and its team of four employees has bootstrapped thus far, though Lott told Upstart he is open to partnerships if "mutually beneficial." He said Hours For Equity is currently working to partner with business software companies to offer discounted rates through the site and expects additional monetization strategies to included premium listing and recruiter memberships.
Silicon Valley has long practiced trading equity for hours. As an alternative source of financing, giving a young team a percentage stake in future profits can focus their attention and provide incentive to create a beautiful, useful product. But there are catches.
Phillip Smith is a startup consultant who has worked for startups on an equity basis and wrote three tips to "get it right:"
Michael del Castillo is the technology and innovation reporter at Upstart Business Journal, a member of American City Business Journals.

Mustangs nip T-wolves in two OTs; schedule wiped out by wintry weather
NEWARK — The Midland Mustangs edged the Cedar Ridge Timberwolves 66-64 in double overtime here Thursday in a 2A-2 District high school basketball contest.
The regulation score was 49-all. Midland's Jarod Perry hit a last-second 3-pointer to send game into overtime. After one overtime, it was 56-all.
"Derek Tharp fouled out in the fourth quarter and Ben Lytle fouled out in the first overtime," Midland Coach Rick McKinney said. "Thomas Puentez came up big for us on defense, especially in the second half and overtime periods. He also scored 10 points.
Lions run away from Scots 85-59
The Freed-Hardeman Lions ran away from the Lyon Scots 85-59 in a TranSouth Athletic Conference contest Thursday night in Becknell Gymnasium.
The Scots hung with the Lions for the first eight minutes, trailing 17-15 with 12 minutes to go in the first half. Then they went cold. Freed-Hardeman used a 12-0 run to set the tone for what was to come. The Lions led 42-31 at halftime.
During the Lions' 12-0 surge, the Scots turned the ball over four times and missed four shots.
Piper rally short-circuited by late turnovers
Five turnovers in five straight possessions turned the Lyon Pipers' 3-point deficit into an out-of-reach loss to the No. 15 Freed-Hardeman Lady Lions Thursday night in Becknell Gymnasium.
Freed-Hardeman won the TranSouth Athletic Conference basketball game 73-66.
Lyon (13-7, 3-4) trailed 61-58 with 4:36 to play. On their next five possessions, this is what happened:
•Lyon's Ashley Waller had the ball stolen by Jana Cross, who missed a shot on the ensuing possession;
Federer dominates Frenchman on way to 22nd Grand Slam final
MELBOURNE, Australia (AP) — Roger Federer is through to his 22nd Grand Slam final after defeating Jo-Wilfried Tsonga 6-2, 6-3, 6-2 in a near-flawless display today at the Australian Open.
Federer, seeking his fourth Australian title, hopes to reverse his tear-filled exit from last year's final when he was beaten by Rafael Nadal, the left-handed Spaniard's first hard-court title.
Fortson drives Hogs by Mississippi State Bulldogs
FAYETTEVILLE — At times, this looked like a pickup game. There weren't many people in the crowd, and there wasn't much flow on offense.
Arkansas' best play was for Courtney Fortson to put his head down and drive through the whole Mississippi State defense — and on this night, there wasn't a thing the Bulldogs could do to stop it.
Fortson scored a career-high 35 points, carrying Arkansas through the second half as the Razorbacks rallied for a 67-62 win Thursday night. Fortson scored 33 points in the second half alone, as many as the entire Mississippi State team.
IRS has new deductions, credits for 2009 taxes
WASHINGTON (AP) — More forms to file. New and expanded credits and deductions.
When taxpayers sit down to file their 2009 returns, they will find plenty new — some the result of adjusting for inflation, and others changes passed by Congress last year to try to bring the country out of recession.
"Depending on their individual situation, there could be good news and there could be bad news," said Amy McAnarney, executive director of the Tax Institute at H&R Block.
Beebe declares emergency; snow closures mount
LITTLE ROCK (AP) — Snow, sleet and freezing rain brought the northern half of Arkansas to a near halt today, leading Gov. Mike Beebe to declare an emergency as most people stayed home to wait out the storm.
Roads started freezing as a winter storm built across the state Thursday night. By this morning, roads were slick from De Queen in the southwest to Piggott in the far northeast. Roads in Little Rock were navigable during what would have been rush hour, but with the forecast calling for more wintry precipitation and frozen roads, schools and offices closed across the region.
A-State presents diplomas at fall graduation
JONESBORO — Diplomas were awarded to 879 graduates during fall 2009 commencement ceremonies for Arkansas State University-Jonesboro Dec. 19 in the Convocation Center.
Graduates include:
Ash Flat — Stewart Smart, bachelor, physical education; Stephanie Smith, bachelor, radiologic sciences;
Illegal resident is charged
Saying she was brought to the U.S. from Mexico by a "coyote," a Batesville woman has been charged with non-financial identity theft, a class D felony.
In an affidavit filed with the Independence County judicial system, Independence County Sheriff's Detective Sgt. Brent Everett said that on Jan. 21 he was contacted by White County Detective Gary Cade regarding the theft and use of a White County woman's Social Security number.
Faith Cham told Cade that she went to file for food stamps and learned that her Social Security number was being used by someone working in Batesville.
State's elk harvest up from 2008
LITTLE ROCK — Arkansas's 2009 elk harvest was up five animals from last year's season. During last week's short meeting of the Arkansas Game and Fish Commission, commissioners were provided a harvest report on the state's recent elk season.
Elk biologist Cory Gray reported that 21 elk were harvested during the state's three seasons. In 2008, only 16 elk were harvested in Arkansas. On public lands this year, 16 elk were taken. Five elk were taken during the private land hunts.
Ammunition: Is it the new gold?
A recent trip to the sporting goods store to purchase some ammo nearly cost me a trip to the local emergency room.
I was surprised that I was having difficulty finding and affording traditionally popular ammo such as .22 caliber, 12 gauge, 20 gauge, .243 and .30-06 shells. I normally find these calibers even at most mom and pop stores.
What's in author J.D. Salinger's safe?
NEW YORK — So what about the safe?
The death this week of J.D. Salinger ends one of literature's most mysterious lives and intensifies one of its greatest mysteries: Was the author of "The Catcher in the Rye" keeping a stack of finished, unpublished manuscripts in a safe in his house in Cornish, N.H.? Are they masterpieces, curiosities or random scribbles?
And if there are publishable works, will the author's estate release them?
The Salinger camp isn't talking.
No comment, says his literary representative, Phyllis Westberg, of Harold Ober Associates Inc.

UK's voting system could see fundamental reform
"There is this feeling: 'Here's this one chance. When will it come again?'"
In 1974 the Liberal Party, as it then was, offered to join a coalition with the Conservatives after an inconclusive election - if proportional representation was part of the deal. Tory leader Edward Heath refused, and stood aside to let the Labour Party form a short-lived minority government.
Since then, successive elections have bestowed House of Commons majorities on parties which won less than half the vote. Margaret Thatcher won a landslide in 1983 with 42.4 percent; Tony Blair did the same in 1997 with 43.6 percent.
Before 1997, Blair flirted with proportional representation and negotiated with Paddy Ashdown, then the leader of the Liberal Democrats.
Ashdown has said there was strong opposition within the Labour party, not least from Gordon Brown, now the prime minister, and Labour lost interest in proportional representation.
Brown, however, discovered an interest in proportional representation as the latest election loomed. His government proposed legislation to hold a referendum on the voting system, but that came to nothing.
Hoping to cling to power, Brown made a new pitch to the Liberal Democrats on Friday. "A fairer voting system is essential and I believe that you, the British people should be able to decide in a referendum what the system should be," Brown said.
Lord Norman Tebbit, a Conservative luminary from the Thatcher era, grumbled on Saturday that Clegg was "strutting around like a king maker having been rejected by 77 percent of the British electorate".
"By his own terms of PR, he should be put back in a locked cupboard and told to go away while the big boys sort it out," Tebbit told Sky News.

Once Upon a Time
Once Upon a Time Season 2 Premiere Spoiler: Is the Fairytale Land Gone? (VIDEO)
In this sneak peek from the Once Upon a Time Season 2 premiere (Season 2, Episode 1: "Broken"), we finally get to see the whole Charming family together, plus a juicy face-off between Mr. Gold (Robert Carlyle) and Regina (Lana Parrilla).
After David (Josh Dallas) puts the mayor behind bars, he demands to know why everyone in Storybrooke didn't return to the Fairytale Land immediately after the curse was broken. Regina claims, "There's nothing to go back to. That land is gone."
Somehow we have a feeling she's telling a blatant lie, and the Charming clan thinks so too. After they leave, Mr. Gold shows up to tell Regina, who is trying to use magic in her jail cell, "Magic is different here, Dearie."
Watch the clip below!
Once Upon a Time Season 2 premieres on September 30, 2012 at 8 p.m. ET/PT on ABC.

Limited Japanese Release featuring Exclusive Packaging and Two Bonus Tracks: Mmmbop (Live), and Madeline (Live).
Snowed In continues the time-honored tradition of Christmas albums by big-name pop acts, combining holiday-themed originals with familiar standards. This one's a cut above standard Yuletide fare, boasting the same tuneful effervescence that sets Hanson apart from standard-issue teen idols. This 11-song disc combines 3 smartly crafted originals with snappily Hansonized interpretations of such holiday standards as the Phil Spector chestnut "Christmas (Baby Please Come Home)," the old Brenda Lee hit "Rockin' Around the Christmas Tree," the Beach Boys' "Little Saint Nick," Irving Berlin's "White Christmas," and the traditional "Silent Night Medley." That last track is a particularly nice showcase for the sibling trio's boyishly soulful harmonies. --Scott Schinder

Faculty Scholarship 1994 - Present
Rethinking Organizational Vulnerability to the Threat of Terrorism
The contemporary business organization faces many unprecedented environmental challenges that can significantly impact the organization?s survival and success. The threat of domestic and international terrorism is an ever-present reality that cannot be disregarded in organizational planning and risk management processes. The reality of the terrorist threat throughout the world must be on the environmental scanning radar screens of contemporary business executives. Over the past 15 years, the author has conducted research regarding organizational vulnerability to acts of terrorism. This research has addressed potential targets of terrorism, environmental factors, organizational exposure, organizational preparedness, and business impact. These dimensions served as the primary constructs in the author?s earlier model (Fleming, 1998) for assessing organizational vulnerability to acts of terrorism. The object of the present study was to ascertain how perceptions of organizational vulnerability to and preparedness for acts of terrorism have been rethought in light of the events of September 11, 2001. The findings of this study indicate that contemporary organizations have rethought their vulnerability and preparedness with respect to acts of terrorism and recognize an increased vulnerability to acts of terrorism that illuminates a mission-critical imperative that organizations accurately assess their vulnerability and prepare for acts of terrorism through effective risk management practices.

The domain of a function contains all of the possible input values that you can use — every number that can be put into the formula or equation and get a real answer.
The range of a function contains all of the possible output values — every number that is a result of putting input values into the formula or equation.
When determining the domain and range of functions, just a few operations cause restrictions or special attention. Functions with radicals that have even roots will have restricted domains. You can't take the square root or fourth root of a negative number, so any x value that would create that situation has to be eliminated from the domain. Fractions also have to be considered carefully. Any x value that creates a 0 in the denominator has to be eliminated from the domain. Functions with even-powered radicals or absolute value will have restricted ranges. They'll produce just positive results. Other "special" cases will have to be determined by trying a few coordinates or by putting x values into the function equation.

This tutorial will be presented in two parts. Part 1 (10:00 AM – 12:00 PM) will focus on basic aspects of the regulatory framework for pharmacovigilance in the context of risk management planning. Part 2 (12:45 PM – 5:00 PM) will focus on the practical aspects of managing biopharmaceutical product risks in the context of benefits and the healthcare delivery system.
A box lunch will be served from 12:00 - 12:45 PM
This tutorial will provide an overview of basic epidemiology methods and study designs as they are applied in the pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries. Topics will include design and conduct of retrospective and prospective epidemiologic studies such as case-control studies and cohort studies, and the application of these designs for premarketing and postmarketing surveillance, risk management (risk assessment and risk mitigation), and demonstration of product value.
Lunch is not provided for half-day tutorial attendees.
The new ICH E2C (E2C) guideline on Periodic Benefit-Risk Evaluation Reports (PBRERs) reached Step 4 in November 2012 and has already implemented in the EU under the new Pharmacovigilance legislation. Alsoaccepted in the US, Japan, and other countries, the PBRER may replace existing requirements for postmarketing periodic reporting. This new report represents a significant change from the previous PSUR format and a quantum leap forward towards a document incorporating many new concepts including an integrated evaluation of both benefits and risks of a medicinal product.
As part of the new EU Pharmacovigilance Legislation (Regulation EU 1235/2010 and Directive 2010/84/EU) marketing-authorization holders are required to maintain a Pharmacovigilance System Master File (PSMF).

In the comparison very fast per megahertz and very modest with weaknesses in floating point operations.
It is also available as a low voltage version with very small current consumption.
750: » Further information can be found in our Comparison of Mobile Processsors.
13.3": This is a common display format for subnotebooks. Netbooks, UMPC and some subnotebooks have tinier displays. Nevertheless, the majority of standard laptops has a higher format. The advantage of a small display is, that the subnotebook can be small dimensioned and can be carried easily. Further the small display needs few energy, which improves the battery runtime and in consequence the mobility. The disadvantage is that the reading of texts is a bit exhausting for the eyes, especially with high resolutions.» To find out how fine a display is, see our DPI List.
1.7 kg: This sub-notebook weighs less than the average of all notebooks and represents a medium class of weight among the sub-notebooks. 11 inch displays are normal for this class of weight.
Asus: ASUSTeK Computer Incorporated, a Taiwanese multinational company, produces motherboards, graphics cards, optical drives, PDAs, computer monitors, notebook computers, servers, networking products, mobile phones, computer cases, computer components, and computer cooling systems. The company's 2007 revenues reached US$6.9 billion. ASUS also produces components for other manufacturers. The Eee PC initiated the netbook boom in 2008.
83.67%: This rating should be considered to be average. This is because the proportion of notebooks which have a higher rating is approximately equal to the proportion which have a lower rating.

Welcome to West Elementary where our mission is "Keep me safe, respect me, teach me well!" We have had a great first few weeks of school and we are excited to keep it going.
We are adding a few programs to West Elementary this year to encourage students to be present and do their best in school every day. If your child attends school 98-100% of each quarter, they will be rewarded with an ice cream party at the end of the quarter. In order to reach the 98% or better goal, students can miss two days each quarter. We understand that illnesses and situations occur that are out of our control, but our ultimate goal is to have students in school learning every day. Students with 98% or better attendance at the end of the year, will also be recognized.
Third and fourth grade students will be recognized for quarterly honor roll. Any student who receives all As or all As and Bs, will be recognized in the Mountain Home News at the end of each quarter. They will also receive a small token of recognition.
Fourth grade students will be encouraged to work towards earning the Presidential Award of Excellence. This award will be based on student's grades, citizenship, and assessment scores.
West Elementary will be continuing the Smiley drawing every Friday. Students can earn smileys throughout the week by demonstrating positive behavior and making good choices. On Friday afternoon, all smileys will be collected and ten names will be drawn for prizes. If your child brings home their smileys, encourage them to bring them back and turn them in for the weekly drawings. Smileys can also be used at the school store.
Spirit Days will be scheduled throughout the year on Fridays. Announcements will be made to remind students about Spirit Days and all students are encouraged to participate. We do ask that students follow the district dress code on Spirit Days and ensure they dress for the weather. Our first day is Beach Day, scheduled for Friday, September 20th.
West Elementary will continue collecting Box Tops for Education, Coke bottle tops, and Campbell soup labels. If you have these items, please send them in with your student.

text: http://forum.xda-developers.com – Hi, Yesterday and today I'm trying to unlock my AT&T Note II, first, I tried by this method (bit. ly /YSiR0M), but it didn't worked, so I decided to call AT&T to see if they could give me an unlock code. As I expected, I got it, so when I went to unlock my Note 2 the phone told me "Network unlocked successfully" but kept saying in the notification bar that was blocked and could not call, send messages, nothing. I thought it was software problem, so upgrade to the latest official samsung, but as I suspected, did not work, the message was appearing again in the notification (HowTos)


text: Do You Want To Know The Latest In Fashion? While you don't want to just follow what everyone else is doing, you might feel lost when it comes to fashion. That's okay because there are plenty of resources available not only to teach you about fashion in general, but to help you find your own unique style of fashion. Keep reading! If you are overweight, you have to be very careful about wearing clothes that have stripes. Make sure you wear vertical stripes if you are going to wear any at all. Wearing stripes that run horizontally will only do the trick of making you look larger than you really are. Fashions are constantly changing, so look for some basic items of clothing that you can add to and create a new look. A great fitting pair of black pants are the basic look you can dress up or dress down, as well as wear in summer or during the winter months. If you wear stockings, keep a small bottle of clear nail polish with you. If you get a snag or run, a small drop of the polish will help stop it before it gets bad. Remember that it only takes a small amount to work so, do not overdo it, or you will have a sticky mess. If you want to make yourself look thinner, try to wear the color black. Whether it is a black shirt, skirt, dress or suit, the color tends to make the whole body appear to be thinner. If black is not a color you are fond of, try to accessorize your outfit with brighter colors. Drying your hair off with a basic bath towel may cause your hair to frizz up, so go with another drying option. This will damage your hair and make it more likely to frizz. Instead, roll your hair up in the towel and push down to absorb moisture. After you have done that, unwrap your hair and comb it. A great way to help you look your best is to keep a good stock of button down white cotton shirts. This is important because not only do they go with many different other pieces, they are also safe for nearly every occasion and extremely easy to take care of. One of the key things that you need to be more fashionable is to get fit. Being fit will help you feel confident and look great. If you are carrying an extra bit of weight then you should start an easy diet and begin doing a bit of exercise on a daily basis. A good fashion tip is to start experimenting with your style if you've become very bored with your wardrobe. You can do this by simply trying out a new type of clothing that you've never worn before such as a scarf or certain kind of dress. This will definitely freshen up your wardrobe. During the summer, you should avoid wearing excess makeup. In the summer, it can get very hot. Therefore, it is not good to wear heavy makeups. A lighter makeup style for the summer will ideally complement your fun summer style, keeping your skin healthy, and you will looking perfectly fashionable. Always keep a little (or not that little) black dress in your closet. A classic black dress is always in season and looks great at formal occasions. There are brand name styles as well inexpensive but elegant varieties. There is no reason to skip buying a black dress to add to your wardrobe. When shopping for vintage clothing, don't make assumptions based on the size on the tag. A size 8 in the 1950s fits differently than a modern size 8, so save yourself some disappointments by always trying items on before buying them. Once you get a feel for how sizes have changed through the decades, you will have a better idea of what to look for. Although it may have been popular years ago, wearing clothing that does not match is not in style anymore. Whether you are wearing jeans and a top, a suit, or a skirt and shirt, be sure the top and bottom match. The same goes for the accessories you choose to wear. One great fashion tip is to check not only the outside but the inside of a garment for how well it is put together. Quality stitching and materials that are used on the inside of a garment is probably a good sign that it was put together with care and that the designer knew what they were doing. Fashion is a unique concept when it comes to the individual, and you must work to develop your own style. Hopefully this article has helped you with exploring your options regarding fashion and your own unique personal taste. Remember the advice you've read here as you continue learning more pertaining to fashion.
