Polls are showing the presidential general election race tightening. The Gallup nightly tracking poll released on Tuesday afternoon had Republican Sen. John McCain edging 2 points ahead of Democratic Sen. Barack Obama. Most of the other highly reliable surveys, including a separate Gallup/USA Today poll taken late last week, still show Obama ahead by 3 or 4 points. Even though the results of the Gallup tracking poll of 2,684 registered voters was within the plus-or-minus-2-percent margin of error, it was still the best showing for McCain in this blue-chip survey all summer. This is clearly a very close race, with many factors at play.
With Latinos now the largest and fastest-growing minority group in the country, it should be no surprise that they have become a critical voting bloc. A quick look at the maps of the most competitive states in this election shows why. Colorado, Florida, Nevada, and New Mexico are each hotly contested, and Hispanics are at least 20 percent of the electorate in each. In New Mexico, Hispanic voters account for more than 40 percent. With that in mind, the Annenberg Public Policy Center of the University of Pennsylvania had pollster Peter Hart conduct another in its series of focus groups on Monday morning, this time with a dozen Latino voters from the Denver area.
To sit behind the glass and watch Hart conducting a focus group is to watch a maestro at work. For two hours, he and a colleague probed the views of the dozen Latinos, five of whom started off the session supporting Obama, two more were undecided but leaning his way, two were completely undecided, and another pair supported McCain. Those numbers are pretty much in line with what most national surveys of Latino voters are showing.
The Latino voters clearly felt underappreciated. Whether first, second, or third generation, they see themselves as hardworking people willing to do jobs that others pass up. They want to provide for their families and yet often find themselves scapegoats for society's problems. Health care is a huge issue among these voters; and with Hispanics making up a disproportionately large share of the military, particularly those in combat duty, the war in Iraq is also an important issue.
Obama started and ended the two hours well ahead of McCain, but the passion and enthusiasm for the Democrat that is so widespread among African-Americans and younger white voters was clearly less evident. Just one or two participants showed any real bond.
Only the two McCain backers -- both men, one of whom was a 68-year-old Air Force retiree who was passionately against tax increases that he anticipated under a President Obama and the other a 51-year-old online bookstore salesman and committed social conservative -- had any real disagreement with Obama on substantive issues. Most other participants had a predisposition toward Obama, but they weren't enamored of him and they couldn't cite many positive things about him other than that he was very intelligent and good at basketball. As Hart commented to reporters after the focus group, "We're seeing too much of a one-dimensional Obama. We're not seeing the human side."
While the focus group revealed little to ratify the suspicion among some of a political and cultural rivalry between African-Americans and Latinos, it did show some commonality of interest. It seemed important for all minorities that a minority, even if not someone from their own group, could get elected president. But then, some doubted that a minority could win the White House just yet.
Perhaps the biggest question is whether Latino voters, while generally supportive of Obama, will turn out in significant numbers if they lack a sense of personal chemistry with him. In that sense, the challenge for Obama this week, and particularly when he speaks Thursday night, is to connect with these Hispanic voters on a real and personal level -- precisely the same challenge that he has with Anglo voters over age 50.

Good clean fun2/1/2013
My 10 year old is having a good time with the helicopters (so am I) Not very durable - landing gear breaks easily and charging receptacles prone to breaking - but for 50 bucks and change - they fly well - Good value for the money -
Very fun and easy to fly1/6/2013
The hardest part was waiting for Christmas morning when the kids would open them. They did require 6 AA each (12 total) but other than that, the kids had the first one in the air before Icould finish unpacking the second one. The kids had them crashing into the cieling after a minute and I was very happy with how quickly and easily they recoved from crashing into tables, chairs, the boys fingers... No one was hurt and they kept flying after each crash.

Make: Projects
World's Smallest Color Organ
This project teaches basic SMD soldering, and is the simplest, smallest color organ out there. It only costs about $10 to make the first one, and if you order the parts in bulk you can make dozens more for only about $3.50 apiece.
This project details the build of a simple SMD LED color organ. A color organ takes audio input from a line source, such as an iPod, splits up the audio into frequency bands, and pulses colored lights in time with each band. For a more detailed explanation, watch Collin Cunningham's "circuit skills" video on color organs. I was inspired to build my own from his video, but since I did not have access to all the components he did I had to design my own version.
I suggest buying the components from Jameco. If you buy 100-packs, you can find the components, except the board and IC, for just 1 cent each. At that price, the whole unit only costs about $10 for the first, then just $3.50 for additional units.

The team explores a former psychiatric hospital with a dark reputation. Using para-forensics analysis, they learn that the rumors about the horrors in the "suicide bathroom" are true as Luminol reveals evidence of extensive violence throughout the building. Later, Pat and Lisa meet an amorous spirit in the File Room, while Mark and Malinka hear a growl on the third floor. The group, including camera crew, also hears an audible response to one of Mark's questions. Lisa unexpectedly finds herself experiencing the depression and despair of the former patients at St. Albans, even after she's back home, and must turn to her fellow investigators for help.
Using hypnosis, Jim puts Sara into a trance that results in enhanced psychic senses and leads directly to the discovery of a previously unknown spirit on the second floor. When told about the incident later, the owner of Oaklands Mansion immediately recognizes his great aunt as the spirit who appeared to Sara. And, through one lively encounter and several clear EVPs, Major Richard Contee (the "Mad Major") proves that he's still in command at Oaklands Mansion. Additional EVPs confirm the rumors of a woman and a child on the premises and provide intriguing clues about the possible identity of the young boy that may explain the reason behind the hauntings at Oaklands Mansion.

The investigators of R.I.P. are overwhelmed when they visit Pennhurst and must fight to keep their emotions in check while a miasma of gloom settles over the entire team. On her own on the first floor patient ward, Pat hears audible harsh breathing, most likely a psychic imprint of someone's long ago suffering. Lisa and Krystal encounter strange sounds on the third floor and receive an amazing answer to one of their questions.
Website: http://www.pennhurstparanormal.com/
Guest Investigators from Alexandria Paranormal Investigations (API) encounter a possible shadow person and R.I.P.'s female investigators are able to confirm the presence of a child in the Mayflower Building. Mark hears a myriad of tapping and knocking sounds that may or may not be paranormal and leaves behind a gift for the children of Pennhurst. Malinka brings through a strong warning for the investigators about the true nature of the "shadow people" at Pennhurst.
Website: http://majorgrahammansion.com/
Lisa makes a surprising announcement and the team is shocked to discover they've captured on video the image of a ghostly face in the Slave Shackle Room. The image appears in the exact spot where several of these psychic investigators experienced intense pressure and sensed a hostile presence. Krystal, Mark, and Malinka also hear a growl and witness a heavy object moving on its own in this same location, which seems to be the epicenter of activity in the main house. When they also notice the smell of sulphur and find an EVP that could be in Latin, they realize they may be dealing with a demonic entity.

Pornographic spam tripled during May from 5.62 to 14.05 percent of all spam, according to an internet security firm.
Clearswift's Monthly Spam Index categorised spam emails and examined trends over the course of the month.
As well as the rise in the amount of pornographic related spam, the Spam Index also highlighted the re-emergence of e-cards bearing malicious software.
The company said e-card spam lured recipients into installing malware and was traditionally popular around Christmas.
Peter Croft, managing director of Clearswift Asia Pacific, said that email threats came in all guises and organisations needed to be prepared.
"Anti-virus is a good start but it's nowhere near enough," Croft said in a statement. "Companies need to use intelligent content filtering software which can block executable files for the most robust defence possible."
Clearswift said the highest profile spam during May was a message claiming pop star Michael Jackson had committed suicide. The message carried a weblink which installed a trojan on the recipient's computer.
The strangest spam reported by Clearswift took advantage of the buzz around the launch of the reality TV show Big Brother in many European countries. The emails invited contestants to eat a spoonful of maggots on live TV.

Preserved: Strawberry Kiwi Jam
I've always loved kiwi fruit, if for no other reason than that they taste intensely tropical and they are in season in the dead of winter. Their fuzzy skin, succulent flesh, and parrot-green hue are always a welcome alternative to the usual roster of apples, oranges, and bananas. Because they are so juicy, kiwis also make great jam—especially when paired with complimentary flavors. More

In Worcester, the "r" in "car" mysteriously turns invisible. It's pronounced "CAH." Submarine sandwiches are known as 'grinders' and soda as 'tonic.' If you're 'wicked' thirsty, look for a 'bubbler,' which is Worcester for water fountain.If you're an out-of-towner, you might raise an eyebrow at the way Worcesterites pronounce certain words and use particular phrases.
In general, Worcester residents pronounce words that end with an "a" such as "data" as "dater" and words that end with "er" such as "hiker" as "hika."
So, it's probably fitting that some people struggle with spelling and pronouncing Worcester.
Like the city of the same name in England, it's pronounced WŎŎS-TER. Thanks to that distinctive Worcester accent, you may hear WŎŎS-tah or WŎŎS-tuh or even WISS-tah.
As the second largest city in New England, with a population of roughly 180,000, you'd think people would know better than to mispronounce it WOR-ches-ter or WOR-sess-ter.
Not so.
Every so often, anchormen garble the city's proper pronunciation and — worse yet — the city is misidentified in print as (yikes!) Worchester. Run a web search, and cringe at all the Worchester, Mass. results that appear.
So, say it with us: WŎŎS-TER. And now spell it with us: W-O-R-C-E-S-T-E-R.

Emily Funkhouser
April 5, 2013
BOISE, Idaho - Three Boise State University student-athletes came away with first place finishes in the first day of the All-Idaho Cup Track and Field Meet.
Jordin Andrade picked up the first Bronco win on Friday placing first in the 400-meter hurdles with a time of 50.93.
Boise State won both 200-meter dash events with Mackenzie Flannigan placing first in the women's event with a time of 24.05, and Daveon Collins finishing first in the men's event with a time of 20.86.
Emily Funkhouser was second in the women's 400-meter hurdles with a time of 1:00.91, which moves her to third on Boise State's all-time outdoor list. She replaces Sally Vail who ran 1:00.93 in 2000.
This was the first collegiate track and field meet at Boise State's newest competition - Dona Larsen Park. Boise State used to host their outdoor meets at Bronco Stadium until completion of this new facility last summer.
While the track has move to a new location, it remains "Ed Jacoby Track" which is named after former head track and field coach Ed Jacoby.
Field events for day two start at 10 a.m. on Saturday (April 6) with the women's pole vault. Running events start at 12:20 p.m. with the women's 5,000-meter run.

Diamondback Avoids Prosecution, Agrees to Pay $9 Million
Jan. 23 (Bloomberg) -- Diamondback Capital Management LLC won't be criminally prosecuted and will pay more than $9 million to end an insider-trading investigation involving Dell Inc. and Nvidia Corp. stock.
Manhattan U.S. Attorney Preet Bharara said his office agreed not to prosecute Diamondback for the actions of two former employees, Todd Newman, a former portfolio manager, and Jesse Tortora, a former analyst. In a complaint filed last week, prosecutors said the pair and five other men were part of a "criminal club" of fund managers and analysts who swapped illegal tips.
Newman, who began working at Diamondback in March 2006, was charged with conspiracy to commit securities fraud and securities fraud in the criminal complaint filed by Bharara's office on Jan. 18. Tortora has pleaded guilty and is cooperating with the U.S., Bharara said. Newman, who hasn't entered a plea, was released on $3 million bond.
"The misconduct under investigation did not, and does not, extend beyond the statement of facts and was not known by the firm's co-founders," assistant U.S. attorneys Antonia Apps and David Leibowitz said in court papers.
Lawyer's Investigation
A lawyer hired by Diamondback concluded after an investigation that certain trades by Newman and Tortora in Dell and Nvidia resulted from material nonpublic information they received from an unidentified expert-networking firm, prosecutors said. The external probe found "no evidence that either the conduct or the improper information" was known by the firm's co-founders, according to prosecutors.
Diamondback in late 2009 instructed so-called expert-networking firms it used not to permit meetings or conference calls with fund employees if the consultants were employed by public companies, Bharara's office said.
Diamondback today separately agreed to resolve a Jan. 18 Securities and Exchange Commission lawsuit over trades made in 2008 and 2009 by the former employees, the SEC said in a statement.
The SEC filed claims against Diamondback, Newman and Tortora last week as part of a wider insider-trading case that involved five different hedge funds and investment firms. The agency claimed Newman learned inside information about Dell's earnings in 2008 from Tortora.
Newman made $3.8 million in illegal profits for his hedge fund by trading on the information, according to the complaint filed in U.S. District Court in Manhattan.
FBI Raid
Diamondback, based in Stamford, Connecticut, manages about $2.5 billion, compared with about $5.8 billion in November 2010. Investors pulled their money after the hedge fund's offices were raided by the Federal Bureau of Investigation that month.
"We are gratified finally to have reached closure on the government proceedings, and deeply regret the difficulties caused to our investors during the last 14 months," Diamondback said today in a letter to clients regarding the SEC.
Diamondback said the costs of the settlement -- a $3 million fine and surrender of $6 million in ill-gotten gains, according to the SEC -- won't be borne by investors and won't affect operations. The accord requires court approval.
"We believe that the proposed settlement appropriately sanctions the misconduct while giving due credit to Diamondback for its substantial assistance in the government's investigation and the pending actions against former employees and their co-defendants," George Canellos, head of the SEC's regional office in New York, said in a statement.
Expert-networking firms connect investors with employees of public companies who purportedly provide them with insight into specific markets. Prosecutors said that sometimes material, nonpublic information was passed during consultations and conference calls.
The case is SEC v. Adondakis, 12-cv-409, U.S. District Court, Southern District of New York (Manhattan).

The Magellan space probe found many puzzling crater-like features on Venus when it scanned the surface with radar. Now an American scientist believes he has solved the puzzle. He says the features are not the result of meteorite strikes but were caused by immense explosions in Venus's lower atmosphere when a body disintegrated on entry.
Most craters on Venus are either volcanic in origin or were caused by the impact of meteorites, but the Magellan team reported finding plenty of craters with strange shapes. Some seemed to have hardly any central crater at all, but consisted of concentic discs which appeared dark in the orbiter's radar images. In contrast, a typical crater caused by the impact of a meteorite is surrounded by bright discs of debris.
Kevin Zahnle of NASA Ames Research Center, California, has modelled the motion of meteorites travelling hypersonically through the thick Venusian atmosphere. He presented the ...

OMB Tasks 11 Agencies with Documenting Duplication
January 17, 2012
Fresh off President Obama's announcement of a bid to streamline the business and trade agencies, the Office of Management and Budget on Friday directed 11 agencies to participate in a pilot program to inventory trade, export and competititiveness functions with the goal of weeding out duplication.
In a Jan. 13 memorandum, Chief Performance Officer Jeffrey Zients asked the chief operating officers of 11 agencies to appoint a "senior accountable official" by Feb. 1 to coordinate efforts to centralize information on possibly duplicative functions.
"Duplicative programs make government less effective, waste taxpayer dollars and make it harder for the American people to navigate government services," Zients wrote. "Critical information on the government's programs has not been centralized in one place, making it difficult to access information on programs working to achieve similar objectives."

Oh, it's been too long, hasn't it? Local friends, a knit-in?
When: Friday January 23rd, 7pm-11pm
Where: My house!
TrackBack URL for this entry:
Listed below are links to weblogs that reference Knit-In! :
I wanna coooooommme. If I leave work at 7AM, which is, like, 30 minutes before I get there, I could be at your house by 7PM...
Well, if I left now I could make it in time...:)
I felt the need to check and make sure you're nowhere near me. And lo and behold, you're 3000 or so miles away . . . I mean, you'd think I'd know that I don't follow any New Orleans knitting blogs. But the word "local" all by itself, it's always so tempting . . .
How fun, wish I could come! However in honor of a long needed
"Staycation" (your term and a good one) I am callin in sick tomorrow and not getting off of the sofa. Hoping to cast on something new!
Sorry - won't be able to make it....busy getting snowed under and frozen to bits up her in the snow belt of Ontario. Maybe when we thaw...
I'll be with youse all in spirit from downunder.
How about just postponing this until March - I'll be in the Bay Area then for a visit. Or - plan another knit in for spring?
oh...mebbe i'll just catch a plane down for a quick knitvisit! don't i wish! hugs. wish i was there, wave hello to me up here freezin' my ass off in the -20 cold snap we've had for the past two weeks (it broke today and is now UP to 13 ...whoo!)
I can't come, but I'll tell a knitting story because I wish I could!
I am alive because of knitting. Let me 'splain. My Granny (named Pat) went to boarding school, and one of her best friends there was a brassy, awesome girl named Iris. Iris came back from a school break wearing a pretty sweater. "Where'd you get that?" Pat asked.
"I knitted it. My aunt Isabelle taught me."
"Oh, I wish I could do that."
"Well, next weekend, come with me to Aunt Isabelle's and she can teach you! She's very sweet, she wouldn't mind."
So soon after they made the trip to the north side of Chicago to visit with aunt Isabelle for Iris's next knitting lesson. Pat was surprised to see a rather rakish teenager sitting on the living room couch reading a magazine. "Oh, don't pay attention to him," Iris said, "that's just my cousin George."
Little did Pat know she was looking at her future husband, who would have to convince her--twice--to marry him. They were married for more than 50 years.
Grr. You do realize the Knitters are playing at Slims that night, right? Grr.
Oh, if only... have been watching photographs taken in SF over the holidays by a friend who's just been there, and am soooo wanting to visit... one day, that's what I keep telling myself... one day... A xx
Sigh. I wish I could come. Have fun all!
Wish I lived closer (wayyyy closer) but I'm quite sure I can't get a cheap flight for a Knit-In!! Hope you have an amazing time!1

Gluing/Melting the Plastic on the Dagu Rover 5
- Login or register to post comments
- by Duane Degn
- Collected by one user
March 13, 2013
Do any of you know what kind of plastic is used to make the Rover 5?
It doesn't have the "feel" of ABS. My guess is it's polystyrene.
In the process of repeatedly opening the gearboxes on my Rover 5 bots, I've stripped a few of the threads, cut by the self threading screws, used to hold the gearboxes together. I know different types of plastics need different approaches to gluing or melting the plastic back together.
One of the threads I stripped held the encoder board to the gearbox casing. I repaired this with some thick super glue (CA) and it seems to be holding up okay.
I'm about to once again open up the gearboxes. While it's apart, I'd like to strengthen some of the threads.
I don't think the problems I'm having with the threads is a defect of the Rover 5. The stripped threads are a result of my having taken about the gearboxes many times as I've experiemented with the Rover 5. IMO, the Rover 5 is a pretty amazing bot for the price.
I have wondered about melting a small amount of Polymorph into the thread holes hoping the Polymorph would bind with the plastic. I know Polymorph sticks to some plastics really well while other plastics don't create a bond at all with it.
I don't have any modeling glue for plastic models. I'm guessing it would work well. I do have some acetone that can be used with some plastics to kind of melt the plastics together.
I'd rather not continue to use the CA since it has such a different consistency than the Rover 5 plastic. I also don't want to glue the gearbox together, I just want to reinforces the threaded holes.
Any ideas?
BTW, I recently noticed Parallax is selling a grey 2WD version of the Rover 5.
Here's a picture of one of my Rover 5 experiments.
I attempted to increase the encoder resolution by using more black and white stripes on the encoder disk. The increased resolution worked on a couple of the wheels but some wheels didn't read the new encoders are full speed.
I'm not sure why you would
I'm not sure why you would want to increase the resolution, at 333.33 pulses per revolution the standard encoder already produces an accuracy of 1.08 degrees. which will measure distance with an accuracy of better than 1mm.
Adding more stripes will not work at higher speeds because the optical sensor cannot respond quickly enough. Your chassis has the older optical encoders. The newer encoders us an 8-pole magnet and hall-effect sensors.
Yes, the Rover 5 chassis is now available in grey as well as white and there is a new wheel shape to help prevent the treads coming off too easily.
My advice for the threads is to try the polymorph. It will need to be very hot to bond to the plastic. Hot water will not do the job, use a cigarette lighter and melt the polymorph until it begins to bubble.
Worst case, you might need to buy a new Rover 5.
P.S. Glad you like my design :D
Low speed measurement
as the distance travelled between pulses is a fixed value you only need to time the number of microseconds between pulses to work out the speed from millimeter to millimeter as speed is distance / time. Some simple PID code should take care of the rest.
Normally I would just use a progressive average of the speed values.
For example:
Store the last 10 readings in an array. Every time a value is stored in the array your index is incremented. When the index = 10, reset it back to 0. This means that the array will always hold the last 10 readings.
Now average those readings (add them together and divide by 10). Use this result to increment or decrement your PWM in order to maintain a constant speed.
Increasing the number of samples to be averaged (I used 10 as an example) will slow the response time but will improve the smoothness of the response.
I look forward to seeing
I look forward to seeing some video :D
I use these sometimes
I use these sometimes when there is no room to retap up a size, they go down to 1/64"you should be able to get them at auto parts stores.
Your Discs
Try re-doing your discs, but use a mulitple of 4 for the number of stripes. These are "quad encoders" which have a phase of 90 degrees.
In English:
When one sensor is catching a change, the other sensor should be right in the middle of a stripe --and vice-versa.
Try a machine screw
I would use a machine screw a little larger than the one that was in it.
This is how I have fixed problems like this before.

Transcript:5 Easy Whiskey Cocktails
Hello, my name is Stalin Sarmiento and I'm a bartender and mixologist at Rue B in the East Village, New York City and today I'm going to show you how to make 5 easy whiskey cocktails.
Whiskey Cocktail #1: Old Fashioned
Our first drink is going to be the old fashion. Of course we are going to use whiskey, as you can see I use three pieces of orange, I use four cherries, you pull the stems off the cherries, you leave them like so. Bitters, and sugar. We are going to start muddling the fruit. Your going to add the orange and the cherries. Next, we are going to do the sugar. In this case, this is what I usually do. Two dashes of regular bitters. One and two. We are going to add water. So, as you can see, I'm doing this much water, just to muddle the ingredients that you have in the glass. Try to be gentle with the muddle. Once we're finished with this, we're going to add the ice. Okay. Just like this, in this case we're going to use four counts, which is four ounces, one two, three, and four. And then we stop. The last step will be the shaking, the shaking on this cocktail is not too hard, you just do it twice so you can mix everything up. So your going to do one and two. And, there you have it, and of course, we're going to garnish this cocktail with an orange on the side. There's your old fashioned.
Whiskey Cocktail #2: The Manhattan
Now I'm going to show you how to make a Manhattan. For the Manhattan these are the ingredients that we're going to need. Of course whiskey again, sweet vermouth, and of course regular bitters. I use a pint glass, you can use something similar to this, add some ice cubes and here we go. One two, three, four. I'm going to take the sweet vermouth and I'm going to do two counts and a half. One two and a half, and I'll stop. We're going to take some bitters. Your going to do three dashes of bitters. One, two and three, please don't shake a Manhattan. What I do is I put my hands on top of the glass and I go like this. The reason why we don't shake it is because we don't want to bruise the whiskey. And we're going to pour like so, to finish this drink we're going to garnish it with a regular cherry, and voila, theres your Manhattan.
Whiskey Cocktail #3: The Presbyterian
Our next whiskey cocktail is going to be the Presbyterian, its very simple to make, it's great for a party, what we're going to do is take a highball, you always use this highball. We're going to add some ice, of course. Try to add as much ice as you can. So I'm going to count four. One, two, three, four. We're going to add the club soda. The second one is going to be ginger, same thing, and this is it. What you're going to do is your going to stir it, a little bit, so you mix everything up. And my secret, if you want to try something a little different, add some bitters. I'm going to do just one dash. And voila you are ready, this is your Presbyterian.
Whiskey Cocktail #4: The Whiskey Sour
Now we are doing the whiskey sour, what we're going to need for it is of course whiskey, fresh lime juice, as well as simple syrup. We're going to take, again, a highball glass, we're going to add a lot of ice. Two counts of fresh lime juice. We're going to stop. A lot of people think that's done you just stir it, no, this one I would like you to shake because you have these two heavy ingredients with the whiskey. You're going to do it like this, shake it like you mean it. We're going to garnish this cocktail with a little cherry, and of course a lime on the side. And this is it, your whiskey sour.
Whiskey Cocktail #5: The Velvet Devil
Last our whiskey cocktail, its called a Velvet Devil. It's a signature cocktail and its very popular here. We're going to start with the glass. We're going to add some ice, we're going to do the count, one two, three, and four. We're going to do two counts of the fresh blood orange juice, one and two. We're going to do a splash of our sprite or seven up, one and two, and we fill up the glass. And of course to finish, the whole process, your going to use the orange bitters, which is going to give this drink a totally different flavor. Two dashes of that, one and two. We do not garnish this with anything, if you want to be fancy you can use a orange, and it will look perfect.
And there you have it this is the Old Fashioned, the Manhattan, the Presbyterian, the Whiskey Sour, and the Red Velvet Devil. My name is Stalin Sarmiento, I work at Rue B, I'm the main mixologist here. Check out about.com for more exciting videos.

Two popular supplements used to fight arthritis and joint pain, glucosamine and chondroitin sulphate, do not seem to work any better than placebo to slow the loss of knee cartilage in osteoarthritis.
However, the researchers behind the work say they had trouble interpreting their results because they had previously found that patients who took placebos had a "clinically important reduction" in loss of cartilage.
The study, funded by the National Center for Complementary and Alternative Medicine at the National Institutes of Health, confirms other findings showing the supplements have few or no effects.
Allen Sawitzke of the University of Utah School of Medicine, who helped lead the study, said that none of the treatments studied showed any clinically important effect on osteoarthritis.
Little effect
The earlier results of the study, announced in 2006, found that the supplements did not reduce the pain of knee arthritis, except among a small group of patients with moderate to severe pain.
The researchers continued to watch 572 volunteers for another 18 months and found the supplements did not appear to slow the loss of cartilage, taken either alone or together.
They said arthritis worsened in 24% of participants taking both supplements, a similar level to those taking placebo.
"Research continues to reveal that osteoarthritis, the most common form of arthritis, appears to be the result of an array of factors including age, gender, genetics, obesity, and joint injuries," says Stephen Katz, director of the NIH's National Institute of Arthritis and Musculoskeletal and Skin Diseases.
"Because osteoarthritis affects nearly 21 million Americans, we are seeking ways to not only treat pain, but also address the structural effects of the condition," he says.

USDA Announces Final Decision to Amend All
Release No.176 -04
Becky Unkenholz (202) 720-8998
Billy Cox (202) 720-8998
WASHINGTON, D.C., Sept. 23, 2004 - The U. S. Department of Agriculture today announced a final decision that permanently adopts amendments to the classification of milk provisions in all 10 Federal milk marketing orders. These provisions were previously implemented on an interim basis. This decision is based on testimony and evidence from a public hearing held Oct. 21, 2003, in Alexandria, Va.
This decision adopts changes that reclassify milk used to produce evaporated milk or sweetened condensed milk in consumer-type packages from Class III to Class IV. A proposal to classify monthly bulk milk ending inventories to the lowest-priced class of Class III or Class IV is not adopted in this final decision.
The final decision will be published in the Sept. 24 Federal Register. USDA will conduct a vote within 30 days to determine whether dairy farmers approve the proposed amended orders. If approved, a final rule will follow to implement these changes.
Additional information about the decision may be obtained from market administrator offices as follows:

Chinese home in middle of road is razed
Posted: December 2, 2012 at 1:53 a.m.
Authorities have demolished a five-story home that stood incongruously in the middle of a new main road and had become the latest symbol of resistance by Chinese homeowners against officials accused of offering unfair compensation.

Development Projects Abound, But Boroughs Still Under-Retailed
New York City is the number one retail location in the world. Retailers from around the world flock to open flagship stores throughout the Big Apple. Apple's store on Fifth Avenue, with its familiar cube, has the highest revenue of all Apple stores. Then there are the flagships of Uniqlo, Zara, Tiffany & Co., Bergdorf Goodman and a cast of others. Nevertheless, when you ask prominent owners of commercial real estate as well as local and national retailers, the general consensus is that the outer boroughs of New York City are severely under-retailed.
Eastern Consolidated's Barbara Byrne Denham reported in May 2012 that retail sales per capita ratios for the outer boroughs were far below the national average. Brooklyn was 39 percent below, Queens was 40 percent below and the Bronx came in a whopping 60 percent below. Read More

Take Your Students to Typing Camp!
- Grades: 3–5
In my district, keyboarding instruction is a third grade requirement. We believe it is important for our students to be provided with formal typing instruction before they enter middle school so that they do not develop "hunt and peck" habits that are hard to break.
We have found that short, sporadic visits to the computer lab are not effective. When students are first introduced to typing, they need lengthy, consecutive time periods in which they learn the location of the letters on the keyboard and have ample time to practice typing using the correct fingers.
Long periods spent practicing keyboarding can be very laborious for elementary students... unless you make it fun! My solution is Typing Camp! What is more enjoyable than camp?

Review: Wedding Vows and Woes
Karen Ann Monsy / 24 July 2009
Whod have thought, that an upcoming wedding could possibly bring out the worst in people? Well, if you didnt already believe it, you certainly will after youre done with Wedding Babylon. Written by Imogen Edwards-Jones assisted, as throughout her Babylon series, by an anonymous industry informant this is your gold-trimmed invite to marvel at the utter madness of a super-competitive, price-inflated sector of the service industry that is in truth, more guns than roses. Welcome to the wedding planning industry.
Mr Anonymous leads the narrative as the ever-efficient wing man/sidekick/ second-in-command (take your pick) to Bernard, who runs the reputed Penrose. The events in the book take place over the span of a single week and are a fascinating peek into the thoughts that run through a planners mind.
But what makes this behind-the-scenes narrative most alluring is that as the prologue announces: Everything in the book is true. Only the names have been changed to protect the guilty.
Our faceless narrator tends to digress heavily, but each anecdote is more interesting than the last and makes his innumerable detours forgivable. Youll also appreciate how well researched the book is as all statements are substantiated by current stats, figures and the like. His constant, but subtle, deadpan humour only heightens the books entertainment value, which youll be pleased to note, is quite high.
Youll find yourself sympathising with him as he tries to resist the advances of a former client (shes actually been married three years and four weeks not that anyones counting), feel the same joy well up at the final dress fitting of another bride, or just as embarrassed at the blunt speech of a far-from-prospective business partner with the tact of a circus monkey.
They undertake a lot, these planners, because in their earnest to ensure the happy couple remains happy, Anonymous, Bernard & Co are ready to go the whole nine yards.
Thankfully though, they draw the line at arranging for a snow storm (drugs) for the guests. Still, its astonishing how theyre expected to acquiesce every request as though the saying: You cant make everyone happy never existed.
The grand finale of the book is the wedding of a certain Alice to Richard and the run-up to the big day is a classic example of how much preparation and stress such a ceremony actually entails. Take Alice alone, for instance. What a charming young lady she starts out to be! But by the time everything comes to a head, shes at best compared to a spitting wildcat.
And if you thought that was bad, hold your horses because its never over till youve met the mother-of-the-bride. Forget the Monster Bride youve simply got to meet Mumzilla. An outright horror, shes about as unsupportive and demanding as they come. Her atrocious yelling about everyone ruining what was supposed to be the best weekend of my life is enough indication of exactly how disillusioned the woman is. Ive heard of mothers trying to steal the show or living the wedding they never had through their daughters but without doubt, this nutter just takes the cake.
As for the wedding day itself? I dont wish to spoil the fun, so lets just say it was the mother of all wedding disasters. As the chaos wore on, it was a wonder the couple made it to the altar at all and by the end of it, youre positive nothing can possibly shock you anymore. It makes you wonder: its true what they say then, isnt it? The road to lasting love it sure doesnt come easy.

Storming courts part of NCAA upset excitement
I have basketball on my mind, so it must be March. One state tournament is done; the other wraps up Saturday. March Madness — aka the NCAA tournament — will be here soon. Brackets will be filled, articles will be written about missed work time for brackets to be filled, and I'll pretty much bet you that one of the first two days of the tournament I'll be skipping a little work to look in at what's going on.
As it is usually inclined to be, the college basketball season has had its share of surprises this year. And if a big enough surprise and a big win — usually an upset — is claimed on a team's home court, fans storm the court to celebrate.
Duke coach Mike Krzyzewski complained recently about court rushes. Of course, if he's ever involved in one, it usually means his team just lost. Duke expects to win, so its crowd doesn't do much court-storming.
Personally, I think Krzyzewski needs to lighten up a bit. But since he's one of the major coaches around, people are falling in line behind him. I especially like watching the ESPN types say, "Yes, court-storming should be stopped," while the sports network continues to show highlights of such occurrences over and over.
And, yeah, I know it's all fun and games until someone gets hurt, but, for the most part, it just a quick rush of the court, a little jumping up and down and hand-slapping, then back to the library to study. (That is where they go next, isn't it?)
I had one court-storming session during my college years. My school, Creighton, had just won the championship game of the Missouri Valley Tournament on its home floor.
Rick Apke, our star player, outshot Indiana State's star player, who was some guy named Larry Bird. (I'll have to check sometime to see if he ever amounted to anything.)
After Apke hit the game-winner at the buzzer, I and a few hundred fellow students headed out onto the floor and a good time was had by all.
There will never be court-storming at the state tournaments. Threatening announcements, ropes held by fierce-looking security guys and glares from winning school faculty members keep that from happening. You wouldn't want to hurt your school's chances to win the sportsmanship award, you know.
At my advanced age, I'm sure my court-storming days are over. But, if you get the chance, when the buzzer sounds, do it and have a good time. Just try not to run anyone over.
Big CEO's not helping
CEOs at Yahoo and Best Buy sure aren't doing me any favors. Within the last week, executives at both of those companies have pulled in the reins on employees working from home.
Telecommuting is the fancy word we've given it. Simply put, with the technology we have at our hands today, some workers have found they don't necessarily need to be "at the office" to be "at the office."
For the last four or five years, and through eight different bosses, I've tried to point out I could be one of them. A lot of what I do with my real job, I contend, could be done from home. I really picked up the request level when we moved to a new house that has the perfect room for an office. It has Internet and everything.
There was a time, I must confess, I'm not sure I had the responsibility to be on my own, but I think I could handle it now. I'd even make the 22-mile drive to the office once a week or so if it made them feel any better. There have even been snow days through the years where my productivity hasn't waned while working from home.
But, alas, all my requests have fallen on deaf ears. And, now, they have more fuel for the fire. If it's good enough for Yahoo and Best Buy to stop, it's good enough for my employer to never start.
Oh, well, maybe it will snow a lot one more time this season and I'll get at least one more telecommuting day out of winter.
I hope it's the first day of the NCAA tournament.

Tick Tock…..
And let's not forget how the DFL sounded 2 years ago when the shoe was on the other foot.
From May 22, 2011 REUTERS by: David Bailey
Protesters supporting and opposing the amendment could be heard demonstrating outside the House chambers for days and anti-amendment chants were audible after the vote.
The amendment is "a real ill-advised attempt to use our constitution to place an important question out of reach of the elected officials and to impose our will in the year 2011 on future generations 100, 200, 300 or more years from now," Democratic Representative Steve Simon said.
Democrats questioned the drive for the constitutional amendment with the state budget still unresolved. They also said they were concerned it would lead to a divisive political campaign over the next 18 months to the election.
"Millions and millions of dollars will be poured into this state on both sides and the pain and agony that I have witnessed in this chamber this evening will be all over Minnesota," Democratic Representative Kerry Gauthier said.
Meanwhile, the private behind closed doors negotiating meetings between DFL Governor Dayton & the DFL Majority Leadership teams has been unable to produce a budget.
Following the 90 minute meeting, Bakk told reporters that they're still trying to agree on a global number on new tax revenue. He said that number is needed to set the spending targets for each piece of the budget.
Tax first, figure out if the spending even makes sense never….
Bakk said they're also still discussing the Senate's sales tax expansion, which neither the House nor the governor supported.
There's a clear sense of 'urgency' in the DFL Senate membership to sock it to lower and middle class Minnesotans to expand State Government. They are holding the budget hostage for one of there pet projects.
Heck with under 2 weeks to go, there is not even agreement amongst DFLers about even the budget targets.
House Speaker Paul Thissen, DFL-Minneapolis, said they've been talking about the budget in very broad terms. Thissen said he's hoping for an agreement on budget targets as soon as possible.
Maybe if they weren't so distracted with their own divisive agenda Minnesotans wouldn't be facing yet another Dayton shutdown.
Clearly Mark Dayton is incapable of leading.
Has he given the order for his Cabinet to begin preparing for a shutdown since the DFL uni-partisan Governing team seems to be at an impasse?

Luanda — The President of the Republic, José Eduardo dos Santos, on Tuesday here received a message of his colleague of Sao Tome and Principe, Manuel Pinto da Costa, Angop has learnt.
The message was handed over by the special envoy of the Sao Tomean President Paulo Jorge do Espirito Santo, who did not disclose its content, but he hailed the strong friendship relations that unite both peoples.
"President José Eduardo dos Santos received it in a cordial manner, taking into account the existing excellent co-operation and solidarity relations between the two states", said the special envoy.
Angola and Saot Tome and Principe have centuries-old relations based on a brotherhood and common history, whose strengthening of the political and economic co-operation must depends on the reinforcement of the position of the two countries at the level of the regional organisations.

A slice of history
Let 'em Eat Cake was originally established in 1987 by Anne Pickens out of her home in Middletown, CA. She had a passion for making beautiful and delicious cakes, which led her to attend the Wilton School of Cake Decorating in Illinois where she honed her skills and with the help of her husband Bruce and her daughter's Dawn and Sara she opened the first stand alone incarnation of Let 'em Eat Cake in Smithfield, Utah in 1990. The family later returned to California and in 2005 Sara took over the business.
As a child Sara observed her mother and helped in the first shop but is primarily self taught and has a more modern and adventurous approach to cake decorating.
Since 2005 Sara has built a new customer base California and opened her own shop in 2009.
Let'em Eat Cake has thrived in the Bay Area and participated in several cupcake challenges and was voted #4 on Bay Area's A-List out of all of the bakeries in the area.
We have been the judge for Livermore Library and their summer reading and cupcake challenge and have been proud sponsors of local charities, hospitals and teams and look forward to being a part of and serving the community for years to come!

Mom of alleged teen hitman in Mexico pleads not guilty to being in U.S. illegally
San Diego The mother of a 14-year-old San Diego-born boy accused of being a paid assassin for a drug gang in central Mexico pleaded not guilty in federal court Thursday to being in the United States illegally.
Yolanda Jimenez Lugo, 43, and her current husband, Gabriel Aguirre Manuel, 46, were arrested in San Diego by Border Patrol agents on Dec. 6, four days after Mexican troops captured her son from a previous relationship at an airport outside Mexico City attempting to board a flight to Tijuana and cross into the United States.
Aguirre also pleaded not guilty on Thursday to being in the United States illegally, but he and his wife are expected to change their pleas under negotiations with prosecutors, U.S. Magistrate Judge Ruben Brooks said. The two are expected back in court later this month.
Yolanda's son, Edgar Jimenez Lugo, confessed in Mexico to participating in the beheadings of at least four gang rivals — and indicated that when he was arrested he was fleeing with an older sister in hopes of reaching their mother in San Diego. A sister who had taken the two to the airport also was arrested.
Border Patrol officials said news of the arrests of Edgar and his sisters led them to Yolanda's second-story apartment in Logan Heights, where she and Aguirre were taken away in handcuffs.
The couple has two daughters, ages 9 and 10, who were born and raised in the United States, and are now being cared for by a relative in San Diego.
Yolanda and her husband will likely serve time in the United States but are almost certain to be deported. Aguirre hopes eventually to be reunited with his children in Mexico, said his attorney, Donald Nunn.
The head of the Border Patrol's parent agency said the government acted appropriately in seeking out and arresting Edgar's mother and her husband.
"When this alleged teen assassin was arrested in Mexico, you make inquiries," Customs and Border Protection Commissioner Alan Bersin said this week at an editorial board meeting with The San Diego Union-Tribune.
"We always do. With regard to, where was he traveling? Who would he meet? What are the kinds of links he might have in the United States?" Bersin said. "Is there a decision that you go after the parents? No. But you reserve the right to do that. You make judgments where it's warranted."
Bersin said the U.S. and Mexican governments cooperate on these kinds of cases, and he acknowledged an exchange of information before Yolanda and Aguirre were arrested, including that Edgar held an airline ticket from Cuernavaca, a popular vacation spot near Mexico City, to Tijuana.
He said the decision to detain the couple was reasonable. "Those are judgments that law enforcement makes and I think, on the facts of this case, it was a warranted judgment," Bersin said.
Aguirre was deported to Mexico in 2002, which is why he has now been charged with illegally re-entering the United States. He has no prior U.S. criminal record, said Steven Pitts, a Border Patrol spokesman.

Samford at Chattanooga
Chattanooga, Tenn. - McKenzie Arena
Feb. 25, 2012
Head Coach John Shulman
Opening Statement:
"To be down nine after a great start, to go through what these kids have gone through, I'm proud of them. They had enough character to come back and battle and get a win right before conference play. I'm happy for them. I'm happy for our seniors. I was happy for them that they ended it in a good way. They've been through a lot. We talked about it today. We said 'We made it.' We made it to the end. At times I didn't know if we were going to make it to the end. They were very excited. They are very excited to get a win. They are very excited that tomorrow at 1:30 we start tournament preparation."
On how this win differs from others:
"It's relief. It's good to win. Winning breeds confidence and there is no way you can be good without confidence, and there is no way you can get confidence without winning. You can say you're doing great but you have to have success and we haven't had that. We've been close but we haven't had that. Hopefully this gives us a little confidence going into Friday night."
On preparing for Georgia Southern:
"We're really looking forward to it. They're very good. I understand that. They're very good. They stole one from us here. We earned it, deserved it and didn't get it. They celebrated on our court. We're looking forward to Friday night."
On Keegan Bell's play:
"You talk about having a rough year shooting the ball, he's had one. He made some big shots and what I liked about it was that he scored that ball but he also had nine assists. They're very difficult to play against in the half court. We talked about at half time that we had to get stops. That's why we were successful early and that's why we were successful in the second half. We got stops."
Senior Forward Jahmal Burroughs
Thoughts on senior and playing his last home game at UTC:
"It didn't hit me until I subbed out of the game that it was going to be my last time playing at McKenzie Arena as a senior. Emotions took over and it was just one of those feeling where you're happy but you're kind of sad because you'll never play here again. It was tough, but it wasn't tough at the same time. I am just glad I got the opportunity to come here and play for two years on a basketball scholarship under Coach John Shulman."
On scoring his career high 19 points:
"My mentality when I'm on the court is that I don't look to score. I am more of player who is looking to get the dirty work done, but if it is there- like an open layup- I am more than willing to take those, and that is what happened tonight. I got a bunch of layups at the basket and I finished."
On the positive attitude of the team going into the game:
"That positive energy started before the game. We bonded together as a team before the game. We came into the locker room and everything had a different vibe to it tonight. Despite all of the struggles we've been having, everything was just different tonight. Everything was more positive tonight. We got all of our guys together, came in all at one time and had a dance/get hype-session for the guys."
Senior Guard Keegan Bell
Thoughts on his performance during the game:
"I got into the game when we went into the locker room at half time. I took a deep breath, told myself it was my last game here, and I decided I was going to be me. I was going to be aggressive and fearless. I was going to be aggressive driving and kicking it to people, but once that fir shot went in- and like I always say, it feels pretty good- I felt like I was back in high school again. It was fun. I wasn't thinking, I was sitting there saying, 'Oh, I am going to carry this team,' or whatever. I was just playing."
Thoughts on playing his last game at McKenzie Arena:
"It hit me last night. I came in late last night and shot around with Brett-Man. I walked in and the lights were on, and I looked down at McKenzie Arena and it looked so beautiful. As corny as that sounds, I was just sitting there and going back through all of the times I had spent in here. From my recruiting visit to Coach Shulman and the stuff that I've been through, I feel so happy. No matter what this season is, I am happy. It has been a second home. From the fans, everyone around the program and to the media, everyone has been great. It has been a very friendly, family atmosphere. I was walking out with my family, and I was kind of holding back and choking up. Just going out there and seeing Rick Hart and everyone on the last night I play basketball here was just a good feeling. I leave here very happy, grateful and fortunate to be around such good people."
